Vancouver Island Regional Library is pleased to offer a new level of convenience to its customers.

As of June 1, library customers can pick up a free library card key chain tag the next time they visit their

local branch. “All you have

to do is stop by the circulation desk and ask for your library card key chain tag,” says Timothy Skye, library manager. “Add it to your keychain and you’ll never be without

your library card. If customers pick up their key chain tags on June 6 or 7, their names will be entered into a draw for a Kobo eReader.”

Key chain tags for the Campbell River, Cortes Island, Quadra Island and Sayward

branches are sponsored by Harris NISSAN in Campbell River.

Just because you can’t see something doesn’t mean it isn’t there.

When it comes to changes in hearing sensitivity, the problem is invisible, but the effects are very real.

For those whose hearing has changed, as well as their loved ones’, it’s often that “invisibility” that causes a lot of the frustration. Without a wheelchair, white cane or other visual reminder to draw attention to their challenges, it’s easy for others to forget the condition exists.

The complexity and slow, progressive nature of reduced hearing sensitivity can also create confusion. I often see clients who can hear just fine in one room of their house but not others.

A loss in the high frequencies often means someone can hear well in a small, carpeted computer room, for example, but not in a kitchen with tile flooring and a

running dishwasher. Needless to

say, this sort of “selective hearing” can create serious tension between partners.

I recall one couple in particular that was having a very difficult

time. The wife was upset with her husband because she thought he was ignoring her, and he continually disappeared whenever company came over.

While she suspected his hearing

sensitivity had changed somewhat, she thought he was taking advantage of the situation and was simply being rude.

After completing her husband’s hearing test, I plugged the results into a hearing simulator and had the wife listen to a recorded story.

When she heard for herself how he heard all the time and realized how difficult it must be for him, she began to cry.

She apologized immediately and promised to be more understanding.

It’s hard to fully grasp how challenging a change in hearing sensitivity can be.

But unlike other conditions, often something can be done about it. Don’t just put up with the frustration; see a hearing professional.

Martin Jurek is a Registered Hearing Instrument Practitioner and co-owner of Campbell River Hearing

Clinic with his wife Jana. To learn more,

A change in the property assess-

ment value of the defunct Cata-

lyst Elk Falls pulp mill is going

to result in a 2012 tax revenue loss

to Campbell River in the range of

$1.8 million, City Manager Andy

Laidlaw said Tuesday.

If that loss was transferred

directly to residential taxpayers,

they would be required to pay 12

per cent more in property tax this

year, Laidlaw estimates.

But Campbell River Mayor Wal-

ter Jakeway is determined there

will be no property tax hikes for

homeowners this year.

In an interview prior to the

Catalyst notification from the BC

Assessment Authority (BCAA) he

said: “My personal intention is to

have a zero per cent tax increase

in 2012. That’s my personal goal

and I’m sure I can bring a few

other councillors along with me

without having to cut services too

badly.”The BCAA announced Tues-

day that the equipment removal

at the former Catalyst Elk Falls

pulp and paper mill means it

no longer meets the legislative

requirements for a major indus-

trial property.

“This will result in a decrease

of approximately $45 million dol-

lars in the major industry classi-

fication,” says BCAA Vancouver

Island Regional Assessor Bill

MacGougan.The city manager set the stage

Salmon catches at Painters Lodge have James Thornton with a 7 pound spring, Raymond Phillips 13.3 pound spring and Kerry Williams’s 20.6 pound spring. The ladies have a 3 day � shing derby at Painters Lodge in early June and the action is fast and furious. Last year more than 2100 pounds of � sh were caught at the derby.

For some big trout try Reginald Lake in early morning or late evening, Fish 2 to 3 pounds are coming and a few 4 pounders have been hooked. Roberts Lake � shes well if your going deep using plugs or willow leaf. This time of year � shing the dock area at

night can get you some small trout but the best

area is on the north end of the lake around the various islands. The second annual Fun Fishing Derby will be held on Saturday, Sept. 21st and yours truly will be on hand helping Lorna Duncan with the days event. This week I will take my � y rod and spinning gear and make my way to the areas between Port Alberni and To� no.This will be my � rst � shing getaway in the area and I hope to have � shing reports available from lakes we haven’t covered yet here on the Fishing Corner.

Q.  If baseball ever expands all the way to the Lunar Leagues, what will “moonball” be like?

A.  Physicist Peter J. Brancazio, author of “Sport Science,” imagines games played inside huge atmospheric bubble domes, to make up for the moon’s lack of air.  This way, air pressure will be the same as back in San Francisco or Tokyo, same old laws of physics, except that gravity here is about one-sixth of Earth’s.  So naturally you need a much bigger ballpark because routine fly balls now travel 900-1,200 feet instead of 300, and home-run fences must be 1,300-1,800 feet from home plate.

Bats on the moon feel light as a feather, 5 ounces instead of 30, but swing heavy.  This is because though gravity is less, mass and inertia remain the same.

Here comes the pitch... same old 90-mph fastball but dropping only 4-5 inches enroute to the hitter instead of the 2 1/2 feet Earthside.  In moonball, a backspinning “heater” will scoop the air and actually rise back up in the curve of a bow, as if

defying gravity.Balls now weigh

about an ounce instead of five, so air pressure has an exaggerated effect, making for some wicked pitches.  But when hitters do connect, the ball will sail three to four times as far and five times as high, staying aloft for 30 seconds!  This will keep outfielders on their toes, with routine shagdowns of 500 feet or more and 15-foot leaps at the wall (timing must be exquisite).

A good throwing arm will send a ball a quarter mile on the fly, but because the ball travels no faster than on Earth, runners can tag up on long flyouts and score all the way from first.  Infield popups that are dropped become--you guessed it--four-base errors.

Some advice to fans:  Don’t forget your binoculars.

Q.  Why do umpires use hand signals for “Strike!” “Safe!” and “Yerr Out!”  Is it to

accommodate those poor suckers in the nosebleed seats who sit so far away that they have trouble following the game?

A.  Nope.  Not even close.  The person who had trouble following the game was William Hoy, the first deaf player in the majors, in 1892.  It was he who invented the now classic signs.

Q.  If somebody puts a voodoo curse on you, might it kill you?

A.  If you think it might, it might.

In “Essentials of Psychology, Exploration and Application, 6th Ed.,” Dennis Coon tells of a terrified young woman admitted to a hospital because she believed she was going to die.  A midwife had predicted that the woman’s two sisters would die on their 16th and 21st birthdays, and that the woman herself would die on her 23rd birthday.

Her sisters had died as predicted, and now it was three days before her 23rd birthday.  Then the following day the woman was indeed found dead in her hospital bed, “an apparent victim of her

own terror.”There are other

cases of people dying of fright, such as soldiers in particularly savage battles, or of people being stricken at very emotional times, such as Louis Armstrong’s widow suffering a heart attack during a memorial concert for her husband just as the final chord of “St. Louis Blues” was played.

Such victims may die in one of two ways, says Coon:

Physiologically, the intense arousal causes a sharp rise in blood sugar, the heart beats faster, digestion slows or stops, blood flow to the skin is reduced.  These “fight-or-flight” reactions generally increase the chances of survival in an emergency, but in an older person or someone in bad health, they can kill.

And if the initial emotion doesn’t prove fatal, “parasympathetic rebound” might:  Following heightened arousal, the body works to calm all the accelerated processes and, in doing so, may go too far:  Even in a young, vigorous person, the counter-slowdown may actually stop the heart.

Thus voodoo, like

all terrors, can get you coming or going.

Q.  Who can say why “fools” fall in love.  But who they’ll fall for is another matter.  In what ways are Cupid’s arrows more like guided missiles?

A.  Going by love studies, says David M. Buss in “The Evolution of Desire:  Strategies of Human Mating,” people almost always wind up marrying someone who lives within a short car ride of their home, is of the same race (99 percent), same religion (75 percent), and similar degree of attractiveness (unless one of the partners “trades” extreme good looks for money).

Nonsmokers usually pair up with nonsmokers.  Those who are argumentative and outgoing usually marry someone similarly argumentative and outgoing.

Romancers also tend to match up based on age (within 3-4 years), height (talls marry talls, with the male a fairly predictable four to six inches taller), politics, health and socioeconomic status.

To speak of things that happened in residential schools only brings them back into focus and many who were sent to these places rarely talk about their experiences. Hearing his father’s stories for the first time affected Carey Newman in a very different way. His father Victor had always protected his children from the reality that was residential school and only told the funny stories. But when the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada held a community event in Victoria, Victor finally opened the door into his past.

“One of the things that seemed to touch him was when he started to talk about when he was first taken and they shaved off

his hair,” said Carey. It was, in many ways, “taking the Indian out of the child.”

The emerging stories deeply affected the younger Newman and led to the idea of a project where reconciliation was the theme. Both Newmans are well-known Kwagiulth artists and master carvers with a wide body of private and public work.

“I thought of a blanket and I realized it should include the idea of reconciliation, parts of buildings, parts of churches, government buildings and other related structures,” said Newman. The project is called “Witness Blanket.” The sole purpose is to stand in eternal witness to the effect of the Indian residential school era. As the children sent to these schools were “broken” so are the places they were sent to. The crumbling

buildings of authority mirror the lose of language, pride and family for those sent to the residential schools.

A blanket is a universal symbol of protection and for First Nations people it identifies who they are and where they are

from. They wear them for ceremony and give them as gifts.

“Blankets protect our young and comfort our elders,” states the project’s website.

Newman wants to “weave” a blanket from those stories and pieces of residential school

history. He sees a large scale art installation that will stand as a national monument to recognize the atrocities of the residential school era while honouring the children and symbolize ongoing reconciliation.

From the 19th

century until the last school closed in 1996, 150,000 Aboriginal, Inuit and Metis children attended these schools across Canada.

The goal of the project is to collect 2,500 pieces of history for the Witness

Blanket. Those pieces can be shingles, bricks, mortar, wood, photos, writings or any fragment that speaks of the time and place of residential schools.A team of six, including Newman, will travel on gathering trips to different parts of Canada.

“We would certainly like to see widespread participation and have the public engage all across the country, all ages and backgrounds,” said Newman. “It is open to anybody who has connection or want to participate in any way.”

Newman said people can contribute items that may have kept from those days and this can include stories of what happened.

They are building a virtual version of the blanket, an exact replica. People will be able to click on an

image and interact in a different way that with the physical blanket.

“With the blanket I can hopefully make a powerful legacy but I can’t put all (the stories) into it.

This will be another dimension crossing the boundaries between art and digital media,” said Newman. “It means anyone can visit the blanket.”

The stories, which won’t be part of the Witness Blanket itself, will be there for posterity. Stories like the ones Carey got to hear from his father. Victor got kicked out of residential school in Mission when the guys got together to get into the wine cellar. The smallest of the group was sent in through a window and pulled out some holy wine. They went into a field and under an apple tree they polished off the wine. When they were found out, he’s not sure how many others were kicked out of residential school. That’s one of humourous stories Carey’s father tells.

“That’s a lighthearted

impression of dad at residential school,” said Newman. “He had his own rebellious way of dealing with it.”

The others weren’t so funny. Newman said Victor spent a long time protecting his children from it.

“He recorded his story for me, some of them for the first time. I heard things I never got to hear or feel — all the negative and bad things I knew were out there.”

He said he did a research paper in college on residential schools and his father never wanted to talk about it and he never did until recently.

Carey wants to find that apple tree and find a piece of it to put into the blanket.

The story of having his dad’s hair shaved off has touched the Newman clan and both of Carey’s sisters, Ellen and Marion, agreed to grow their

hair for a year and the braids will be on the last part of the blanket.

The Witness Blanket project is funded through the Truth and Reconciliation Commission and Aboriginal and Northern Development Canada. Part of the funding was set aside by a court ruling to do with reconciliation, said

Newman.For people

interested in being a part of the Witness Blanket, they can log onto the website at: www.witnessblanket.ca, on Facebook or email: [email protected].

The team will travel to every province and territory at least once.

“This is truly a national project in scope,” said Newman.

With a strong belief in the importance of tradition, Carey is active within his culture, a role for which he has been given the traditional name Ha-yalth-kingeme. Under the influence and support of his father and mother, Carey developed his artistic ability and cultural knowledge from an early age.

Teresa BirdBlack Press

Are small town newspapers a good business investment? In light of today’s technology many people believe newspapers are dying, but David Black, owner of Black Press and

the Campbell River Mirror doesn’t agree when it comes to community newspa-pers.

“I think that week-ly newspapers are good business,” says Black. “I don’t see the internet threat-ening that.”

Black knows what he is talking about. He got his start in the newspaper busi-ness humbly enough when he bought the Williams Lake Tribune in 1975 from the owners, one of whom was his father.

“I never intended to be a newspa-

perman, I studied

engi-

neering and took my MBA,” says Black. “I ended up as a �inancial analyst for the Toronto Star for a couple of years and started to like the (newspaper) business. I particularly liked the weeklies.”

When his father told him that the Tribune was being sold, Black asked if he could buy it.

“He just laughed and said, ‘Why do you think I told you?’” recalls Black fondly. The young Black family moved to Williams Lake “for a couple of years” but “fell in love with small town living” and stayed for a decade.

While there Black learned the business at the grassroots level.

“I learned a lot about the weekly newspaper business,” says Black. “When somebody left, whether it was an editor or a compositor or a sales rep or a circulation manager or… I ended up doing the job until we found a replace-ment. It really helped me the rest of my career because I actually know what it takes to do the job.”

And from Williams Lake, Black began to expand his career and business. In 1980 he purchased the Ashcroft Journal (now the Ash-croft Cache Creek Journal).

Today David Black lives in Victoria and Black Press includes more than 190 publica-tions, in B.C., the Prairies, Washington State and a daily in both Hawaii and Akron, Ohio.

So why has Black Press been so successful? “I understand business, I have a head for

business. But the trick is people. If you can surround yourself with people who are really good, you will succeed,” explains Black. “We have really good staff.”

And that is part of the reason why commu-nity newspapers aren’t as threatened by the internet, say Black.

“We are putting out as good a local paper as we can afford editorially. It shows in the numerous awards we receive every year and our readership.” says Black. “I think weeklies will continue very much the same, I don’t see

huge changes in towns the size of Campbell River where the local newspaper has the local information people want. We have not seen any fall of readership in our weeklies.”

The Museum at Campbell River is offering a unique opportunity to participate in a Historic Boat Tour that will feature local First Nation’s guide Wayne Bell. 

The theme of the tour will be ‘Salmon’.  On Friday, June 14, from  4 pm to 8 pm,  the boat will follow the shores of Quadra Island, going through Hole in the Wall to Church House and coming around Maurelle (weather Permitting) so as to stop near Cortez to look at the ochre petroglyphs.   Bell will address the theme of ‘Salmon’ along the way and will talk about local Salmon catching techniques, food preparation, storage, and  the spiritual contributions it had to local First Nations cultures.  Also on board will be Museum guide Ross Keller who will address local history including canneries, industrial fishing, the BCP45 (and vessels alike) and industrial information on salmon

farming.  This unique tour will offer a light snack on board.  The cost is $130.00, including light snack and onboard historic interpretation.

This historic trip is offered through a partnership between the Museum and

Discovery Marine Safaris.  Please call the Museum at 287-3103 to register.  Different trips are being offered every Sunday throughout the summer.  Check the website at www.crmuseum.ca for more information.

As a clinical counsellor, I often meet couples when their relationship is at its most precarious. An accumulation of unresolved issues has led to pent-up resentment, and a spouse confides in the first session that their suitcase is packed and they’re ready to leave. All options, in their mind, have come and

gone. This is a very

desperate and highly emotional time; the

individual partners may not even know if they want to save their marriage or relationship. Choosing relationship counselling, however, is a smart decision, as it can help

you see things from the other’s perspective and defuse any tensions

that have grown to the breaking point. If nothing else, it will help you determine if there’s still something there that’s worth saving.

Relationship therapy works best when both individuals are in the session together and are focused first on themselves rather than the “other.” I find that some individuals come to therapy believing that their spouse is “the problem” and needs to change. This

perspective has to be quickly identified and corrected, otherwise the dialogue will be a “blaming session” with no therapeutic benefit.

Relationship therapy is a collaborative process between the couple and the counsellor. Your counsellor is there for each of you equally and does not take sides or decide who is right or wrong. It’s also important to dispel the illusion that your counsellor has a

“magic wand” that can fix the relationship just like that.

When couples are committed to counselling and each individual is prepared to work through any unresolved issues to save the relationship,

counselling can do wonders. I’ve seen many relationships get back to solid footing after teetering on the edge.

If yours seems like it’s perched on the cliff, you owe it to each other to give

counselling a shot.Danielle Lambrecht

Ask the Dentist

Answer: There are several ways to address crooked front teeth, but it depends on the degree of crowding. Severe crowding is often best treated with orthodontics (braces) to straighten the teeth. Moderate to mild crowding can also be treated with Invisalign, which utilizes clear trays that are custom made and move teeth gradually and gently. This can be done at your family dental offi ce.Another way to change the appearance of teeth is with composites. These are tooth-coloured resin fi llings that are bonded to repair decayed, chipped, fractured, or discoloured teeth. They can also be used to close spaces between teeth, make teeth look longer, or change the shape or colour of teeth. They usually last several years, depend on how much bonding was done and oral/biting habits.Other options include porcelain veneers and crowns. These are thin layers of porcelain that are placed and bonded to prepared teeth. They can be used in situations where one wishes to change the shape, colour, or overall appearance of his or her teeth. They are very lifelike and can last for many years with proper care.In order to fi nd out which treatment would work best for you, please speak to your dentist, or call us for an

exam or free Invisilign consultation.
