Part 2 According to the

Canadian Institute for Health Information there were over 77,000 joint replacements performed in Canada last year.

This is a signifi cant increase from 1997-1998 when there were 32,000 hip and knee replacements performed.

Knee replacement surgeries have doubled over the last decade and more than tripled in the 45 to 64 age group.

So why the big increase?

Evidently it’s not all due to obesity. Ironically, trying to stay fi t and avoiding extra pounds is taking a toll on a generation that wants old joints to be swapped out like old tires on a car.

Joint replacements have enabled millions of people to lead better

lives, and surgeons are increasingly comfortable offering them to younger people.

But here’s the trouble: No one really knows how well these implants will perform

in the active baby boomers that are getting them now.

Most studies were done in older folks whose expectations were to be able to go

watch a grandchild’s soccer game — not play the sport themselves.

Even the studies presented at a recent orthopedics conference that found knee replacements are lasting 20 years, come with the caveat that this is in older people who were not stressing their new joints by running marathons, skiing or playing tennis.

Besides the usual risks of surgery — infection, blood clots, anesthesia problems — replacing joints in younger people increases the odds they’ll need future operations when these wear out, specialists say.

So what can you do to ensure that you don’t need a knee replacement until much later in life and hopefully not at all?

Here are some simple strategies to keep your knees

healthy: Number one, cross

train. People tend to fi nd

one thing they like and do it a lot, but multiple activities prevent overuse.

Balance your routines to build strength, fl exibility, core muscles and cardiovascular health.

Number two, lose weight.

Every extra pound you carry registers as fi ve extra pounds on your knees.

Number three,

spend more time warming up.

Break a sweat and get the blood fl owing before you go full blast.

This will warm up the muscles and allow them to work to protect the knee joint as you enjoy your chosen sport.

Number four, let muscles and joints recover, and rest in

between workouts. Overuse is one of

the most common causes of wear and tear on joints, muscles and tendons; allowing them to recover will mean less discomfort and a longer life for all of your body’s joints.

Finally, if you have knee or hip injury, get it treated properly. Damage from injuries

can result in arthritis and joint degeneration down the road.

Doing the right exercises and stretches at the time of the injury to minimize its severity may help to prevent a joint replacement in the future.

Treat injuries properly

Vancouver Island MusicFest organizers are kicking into high gear in the fi nal days leading up to the 17th anniversary of the festival and the big deadlines are fast approaching.

Tomorrow is the last day for Early Bird Tickets for an incredible weekend of world class music right in the Comox Valley. And to keep things exciting, VIMF has also added some fi nal

musical touches to the 2011 roster with the addition of Eccodek and Vonda Shepard.

With three critically acclaimed albums, Canada’s Eccodek has become renowned as a leader in the world of global fusion and have become a potent and much sought-after voice on the global dub scene. With a 2009 Juno nomination and multiple Canadian Music Awards, their dubwise mix of

African, South Asian and Turkish sounds artfully layered over monster grooves, is a festival favourite.

Eccodeks earthy blend of global beats, soaring melodies and textured electronica has positioned then as a signifi cant voice on the global fusion stage. Their music echoes the ancient past while keeping a conscious, culturally inclusive eye to the future – furthering a global

dub journey that takes cultural authenticity over the cutting edge. Vonda Shepard’s career has ranged in scope from early hits in the late ’80s with “Don’t Cry Ilene”and “Can’t We Try” (with Dan Hill) to her work as an independent artist, and then as the voice of Ally McBeal, selling more than 12 million records throughout the span of the TV show.

Upon his arrival at 19 Wing Comox earlier this month, the Chief of the Defence Staff, Gen. Walt Natynczyk, took the time from his busy schedule to recognize 19 Wing.

During a townhall with approximately 200 members, Natynczyk presented 19 Wing commander Col. Michel Lalumière with a Canadian Forces Unit Commendation.

19 Wing received

the Canadian Forces Unit Commendation for its outstanding performance that contributed to the operational success of the 2010 Vancouver Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The fl awless security for the duration of Operation PODIUM was a massive undertaking, and 19 Wing’s exceptional contribution in this regard was paramount to the mission’s success.

“This award is about recognizing the hard work done by the men and women of 19 Wing during the Olympics,” said Natynczyk. “This is my way of saying ‘thank you’ to each and every member of this team for what they did in the service of Canadians and to support those in need at home and abroad.”

Two individual members were also

recognized and rewarded with a CDS Commendation.

Master Cpl. Douglas Neufeld and Cpl. Richard Kennedy received the CDS Commendation for their accomplishments while deployed to Haiti from January to March 2010.

As part of Canada’s inaugural deployment of an Urban Search and Rescue Team, Neufeld and Kennedy

faced the horrifi c reality of locating, extracting and removing the remains of those who perished in the devastating earthquake. Their resolve and dedication helped ease the suffering of families and portrayed the skill and compassion of the Canadian Forces amongst our international partners and the Haitian people.

PORT McNEILL — The atmosphere at Cheslakees Elementary School was bittersweet last week, as former students, parents and staff attended its fi nal “open house” before the school becomes a kindergarten and early learning centre this fall.

One of the former students visiting was Katie Addlington – soon to be a grade 11 student at North Island Secondary School. “It’s sad,” she said of the school’s closure. “Cheslakees was the best school in the world.”

Cheslakees has offered classes from kindergarten through grade fi ve, but due to shrinking budgets and enrolment, it can no longer be maintained as an elementary school.

Starting this fall, current students will be moved to Port McNeill’s other school, Sunset Elementary.

One year earlier, the School District 85 Board of Trustees voted to close Robert Scott Elementary in Port Hardy, with the bulk of its students

moving to Eagle View.At Cheslakees last

week, guests were treated to refreshments and explored the gym, where tables were set up with memorabilia from the past 22 years. Photos, donated by the school and parents, gave a glimpse into the life of Cheslakees students, while a slideshow ran in one corner of the gym. Students could

also enter their name into a draw to win a Cheslakees athletic jersey.

Former students, parents and staff then gathered in the library to put their favourite memories in a time capsule and put their thumbprints on a painting of a tree, creating “leaves” which they then signed. The illustration, created by

Lynda Biggs and her daughter, Jacquelyn, will remain at Cheslakees.

In the library, old videocassettes played montages of activities during students’ trips to Camp Homewood, going back to 1987. The videos also included clips from Cheslakees’ “student-led assemblies.” Mary Addison, a secretary at the school, said the

assemblies “encouraged self-confi dence and leadership.”

“It was something Cheslakees was really well-known for,” she said.

Jessica Petereit, who graduated from Cheslakees in 2000, stopped by with her friends to look at some old photos and put her thumbprint on the tree. When asked how it feels to be back, she laughed and said, “Everything’s tiny.”

She then looked down at her old class photo.

“I used to have so much fun here.”
