Free information sessions on the International Baccalaureate program (IB) at Highland Secondary School in Comox will be offered to families in Nanaimo, Parksville and Campbell River this month.

The IB program, now in its second year at Highland, provides students with access to one of the world’s most recognized and respected academic credentials.

While similar programs are available in tuition-based private schools, Highland Secondary School in Comox is the only Anglophone speaking public school on Vancouver Island that offers an IB diploma program to students in Grades 11 and 12. In IB diploma is recognized worldwide and provides students with a holistic approach

to education that values academic achievement, creativity, social awareness, and personal growth.

IB is designed for motivated learners who want access to honours-level courses in Grades 11 and 12 and an educational experience that’s focused on international and intercultural understanding. It appeals to motivated students with strong

leadership skills and work ethic who want to bring a diverse global perspective to their post-secondary studies or career path.

The Highland program welcomes students from other districts who meet academic requirements. Homestay opportunities are available for students requiring lodging.

Information sessions will give families an opportunity to

learn more about the advantages of earning an IB diploma and a chance to meet some of the teachers and students involved with the program. In addition to academics, the IB program also has a CAS component (creativity, action and service) and an extended essay

requirement. Those who attend the sessions will learn more about the kinds of physical activities, creative endeavours, and social projects that IB learners are involved in.

Grade 9/10 students will also benefit from these sessions as they will learn more about course selections that will be prepare them for enrolment and success in the IB.

“Studies show that students who earn an IB diploma are better prepared for post-secondary studies, and have higher acceptance rates, retention rates, and grades,” states Highland principal Lyneita Swanson. “They are also eligible for generous scholarships specific to IB graduates, with the possibility of earning first-year university or

college credit.”Campbell River

families are invited to learn more at the Campbell River Community Centre at 401-11th St. on Nov. 28 in a free presentation at 7 p.m. For more information, check out the IB program at Highland’s website at www.highlandsecondary.ca/node/7 or contact [email protected]

After months of research, Leslie Dyck has begun to connect the dots on the North Island.

Dyck is the project coordinator for the Food Security Engagement and Research Project, a partnership between Mount Waddington Health Network and Vancouver Island Health. Last week she hosted a Community Consultation on collaborative food security action planning in the region at the Old School in Port McNeill.

The consultation drew interested parties together to discuss the goals of the project.

“I feel like I’ve been running around, meeting so many people over the past months; this is the first time we’ve all got together in the same room,” said Dyck.

Making these connections is key to one of the primary discussions at the consultations: creating a food security hub. Dyck said that there were four examples of hubs on the Island but, while lessons can be learned from these examples, each hub needs to be uniquely tailored to its region.

The small-group meetings at the event looked at the assets already in place in the region and the gaps that need to be filled. Of these gaps, one stands out.

“I’d say the biggest gap out there is an information gap,” said Dyck. “You maybe have someone doing composting over here and another over there — I’d like to be able to connect those two.”

By building these connections between individuals and

The water levels are higher on the Oyster River and the � shing in the days to come can be ideal for catch and release trout. With snow in the upper elevations water temperature is cooling and the � sh are more likely to be choosy with � y patterns thrown at them. The yellow and red Mickey Finn that was working 2 weeks ago has been changed to a number 8 silver body � y with green hackle. The pools have a few salmon that are spawned out and it appears that Coho are done.

On local lakes the � sh are biting on power baits and lures cast from shore. If you’re � shing from a boat the weed edges can

be productive for small trout. Large lakes like Comox and the Upper Campbell can � sh very well and some anglers are trolling small plugs and getting � sh. The majority of salt water anglers who � sh the summer are out hunting or have pulled their boats out of the water. Crabbing and prawning can be good this time of year, the key spots can produce nice catches of crab. Local tackle shops in Campbell River and Courtenay can supply information about trapsand bait.

How can you get what you need out of your relationship and strengthen communication between you and your partner? Start by listening very carefully to the grievances, complaints and put-downs that the two of you exchange.

I believe these grievances are indirect statements coming from a place of longing. It’s difficult for some to come right out and say what their needs and wants are. They may have also

learned ineffective communication styles such as passive or passive-aggressive approaches, which can create emotional distance between partners.

A spouse that is passive might say, “It’s okay if you don’t want to go for a walk” when really they want to spend time with you. The passive-aggressive

spouse might state, “I don’t mind doing all the housework, you never ask anyways,” when what they really need is your help

and support. Both communication styles send mixed messages and create a build-up of resentment, defensive posturing and frustration.

To start getting your needs and wants met, you must learn to adopt an assertive communication style. Ask yourself, “How do I really feel about this situation, person, or thing?” Then ask yourself, “What do I really want or need?” Finally, communicate that in a clear message,

such as “I would feel very happy if you went for a walk with me, as I would like to spend time with you,” or “I feel supported when you help me with household chores.”

Effective communication combines expressing your feelings with clear, direct statements. Adopting an assertive communication style demonstrates respect for yourself and your partner, generates self-honesty and honours

your needs and wants. Your longing doesn’t have to be hidden by indirect statements, criticisms, or put-downs. With loving, open and honest communication, you can both meet your needs and strengthen your relationship.

organizations, the spokes of the hub are assembled and gaps are identified and filled.

For example, a community garden could supply organic produce to a nutritional workshop, which in turn brings scraps to a composter, who in turn supplies the community garden.

Food security was defined as existing “when all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient, safe and nutritious food which meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life.”

Locally, four key elements have been identified:

• Availability of food (quantity of

food available to the population);

• Stability of food (reliability of food sources over time);

• Accessibility of food (ease with which food may be obtained); and

• Utilization of food (ability and desire to make use of the food).

In practice, its scope is huge, encompassing everything from community gardens to farmers’ markets to food banks. The next step for the planned hub will be to form a committee and find an appropriate lead agency to carry the project to fruition.

When a 7.2 earthquake rocked the Philippines in October Donna Cloutier felt the shaking - she was there. The Courtenay chartered accountant was volunteering with Rotoplast, a Rotary charity that funds cleft palate surgeries in third world countries. The quake killed more than 200 people and left 270,000 homeless on the island where her husband, physiotherapist Eddy Betinol, still has family.

Cloutier returned home and began planning a fundraiser to benefit earthquake victims. And then, last week, Super Typhoon Haiyan flattened the region, killing an unknown number and leaving hundreds of thousands more homeless.

And so the Sunday, Nov. 24 fundraiser, A Taste of the Philippines, takes on an even greater importance, raising money for typhoon and earthquake aid.

“It really hits home when it’s family,” Cloutier says. “Some of Eddy’s family was living under tarps after the earthquake. Everyone is displaced now.”

And Betinol is not the only local reeling.

“There’s a significant Filipino community in the Comox Valley and Campbell River,” she continues. “They all have family who are affected. It’s going to take a lifetime for them to recover. We knew we had to help if we could. There’s a link between Vancouver Island and the Philippines because we’re in an earthquake zone, too. One day it will happen here. It could be us that are homeless.”

The event takes over Courtenay’s Native Son’s Hall on November 24 from 5 p.m. until 11:30 p.m. with food and wine, performances and dancing to DJ Syros. All proceeds from the

$50 tickets go to the Red Cross’s Philippines fundraiser. Tickets are available at The Joint Physiotherapy, Cascadia Liquor Store, Pateman Accounting, Mountain City Cycles, Ski Tak Hut, Marigolds Pharmacy and Bario Fiesta or online at www.atasteofphilippines.

comFor those that can’t

attend, donations can be made on the website or at redcross.ca

A Taste of the Philippines begins with, well, a taste of the Philippines - traditional appetizers paired with Filipino beer and Blue Moon

fruit wine. Dinner is at 6 p.m., featuring authentic Filipino dishes prepared by Filipino cooks and served with live music by local guitarist Amanda Usher. A cash bar will also be open.

After the meal, Cloutier will present a slideshow about the

typhoon, earthquake and her Rotoplast experience, followed by a representative from the Comox Valley Emergency Preparedness Program talking about earthquake preparedness.

Then the performers take over: an aerial silks routine,

Pantuso dancers and a Filipino dance group from Campbell River before DJ Syros turns the Native Son’s into a dancehall.

The event couldn’t happen without generous sponsors, says Cloutier, shouting out a big thanks to Amy’s Asian Food in Campbell River,

DJ Syros, Blue Moon Estate Winery, Cascadia Liquor Store and Cumberland Village Works.

The goal is to raise $10,000 for the Red Cross.

Directive order, follow-up inspections and industry action

In April 2012, we issued a directive order to all sawmills in the province to conduct a risk assessment for combustible wood dust, and implement a dust-control program. Officers inspected every sawmill in the province for compliance with that order.

A CEO-led sawmill taskforce and industry advisory group developed safety resources to distribute to industry, including best practice guidelines and an audit tool for dust-control management.

Three new occupational health and safety guidelines related to wood dust were published, along with two hazard alerts to address risks specifically related to wood dust.

Our officers re-inspected all sawmills to evaluate the industry’s efforts to manage combustible dust.

Scope expanded to include wood processing operations

In 2012 and into 2013, officers also conducted

targeted inspections of other wood products manufacturing industries, including pellet plants, and plywood and pulp and paper mills. We inspected for compliance for the management of wood dust, and also examined ventilation and dust-collection systems.

Ongoing and sustainable compliance

In 2013 and going forward, our officers will continue to address combustible dust as a regular part of their inspectional activity. This winter, a dedicated team of officers will re-inspect sawmills throughout the province. The sawmill industry has made significant progress in addressing dust management. We want to ensure that progress and compliance with wood-dust management requirements is being sustained.

Safety in BC sawmills is a vitally important issue, firstly to those who work in the industry, and also to their families and communities. Our common goal is to make wood-dust management an integral part of manufacturing operations. We will continue to work proactively with businesses around the province to make safety a fundamental part of this industry.

Sawmill inspections continue. WorkSafeBC Prevention staff have been working with industry, other provincial regulators, and stakeholders to ensure that BC sawmills and other businesses that deal with wood dust are, and continue to be, in compliance with safety requirements.

Ladies, if you wear high heels more than once a week, pay particular attention to this column.

The average person takes about 10,000 steps a day. High heels concentrate the force of each of those steps on the ball of the foot and the bones at the base of the toes. The higher the heel, the worse the potential damage: a two-inch or higher heel creates three to six times more stress on the front of the foot than a one-inch heel. As a result, wearing high heels regularly can lead to bunions, heel pain, toe deformities, shortened

calf muscles and tendons, shin splints and trapped nerves. No surprise, then, that women account for almost 90 per cent of operations for bunions, hammertoes and trapped nerves.

Your ankles, knees, hip joints and even your spine can also suffer from your footwear preferences. In flats, your leg and thigh muscles can contract as well as stretch out; high-heeled shoes hold your feet in a fixed downward position.

This prevents the muscles that cross the backside of the

knees, hips and lower back to stretch out as they normally would. They also cause your body to pitch forward, putting excess pressure on the back. Over time,

this can cause stiffness, pain and injury. The solution? Mix it up. Leave for work in a flat shoe and save the high heels for meetings/luncheons. Back at your desk? Switch back to your flats.

Start adapting your

outfits to suit flatter shoe styles.

By choosing lower heels and having a wider variety of shoes, you can keep your nice heels for occasional wear and prevent a lot of aches and pain down the road. Investing in appropriate footwear now could also save you thousands of dollars on physical therapies‚ not to mention potential surgery.

Heel better to feel better

B.C. has reached out to U.S. states and the domestic clean energy industry in an effort to keep its greenhouse gas reduction goals in sight.

Energy Minister Bill Bennett hopes to have details out by the end of the year for a “modest” clean energy program he promised to private power developers

at a conference in Vancouver this week.

With BC Hydro projecting an electricity surplus in the near future, there won’t be another clean power call any

time soon for run-of-river, wind and other producers, Bennett said in an interview. A priority will be energy development for aboriginal communities.
