CommunityFly Tying Club starts
A new fl y tying club has formed in Grand Forks for those interested in sharing their knowl-
edge and those who want to learn more about it.
Karen and Law-rence Radford are putting together a group of people who are interested.
“Th ere was an in-terest from people who wanted to get together and tie fl ies,” Karen said. “So we decided to have a group of people to-gether to exchange ideas and exchange knowledge, and to teach anybody who wants to learn. It’s for everybody inter-ested in coming.”
Karen noted that with the Granby and Kettle rivers in such close proxim-ity, there’s been a lot of interest in the hobby.
“Th ere are also new people coming into town, includ-ing people who are recently retired and want something to do,” she added.
Th e Radfords started up Kingfi sher Fly and Tackle Shop three years ago upon suggestion from oth-er fl y-tying people in the community.
“I’ve always had an interest in it but when we moved here there was nothing available,” she ex-plained. “Th ere was a shop but it closed and since we had the space so we opened a small shop.”
Th e fee for each meeting, which takes place at the Sta-tion Pub in Grand Forks, is a toonie to-wards the club, and a toonie in a jar for the waitress at the Sta-tion Pub to clean up aft er, Karen pointed out. Th ose under 16 years old are not charged.
“We’re open to adults and children, and when we get more members we’ll decide what direc-tion we want to go in,” Karen conclud-ed.
Th e club will be meeting the second and fourth Th urs-day of every month at the upper fl oor of the Station Pub, from 7 to 9 p.m.
For more informa-tion, contact Radford at 250-442-3011.

Postcard, bottle catch collectors’ fancy
Another in a series about Kootenay-relat-ed collectibles on eBay.
An amazing post-card of the Yale-Co-lumbia sawmill at the Boundary ghost town of Cascade (more properly Billings) sold last month for $105.50 US.
Th e card was un-mailed but dated March 2, 1911 at Lau-rier, Wash. and ad-dressed to Miss Rosie Budow of Tonawan-da, N.Y. Th e message read:
“Dear Sister, Th is is a small town right on the boundary line of the US and Canadain [sic]. Th e three build-ings which are along the track are the GN [Great Northern] sta-tion in center and US custom offi ce on our side and the Canadain [sic] custom on other. Have considerable snow here. Expect to be here a few days. Hope you are well. Fred.”
Th e sawmill was established around 1903 by the Genelle brothers of the Yale-Columbia Lumber Co., which also had mills at Nakusp, Nel-son, and Wesley, near Castlegar. Manager J.G. Billings lent his name to the location.
By 1910, when it was sold to the Do-minion Sawmill and Lumber Co. the mill had a daily capacity of 75,000 board feet and employed about 100 men. It operated until 1924.
One other copy of
this postcard sold in 2010 for the buy-it-now price of $42 US.
• A clear bottle from the Lion Brew-ing Co. of Rossland embossed “Th is bottle not to be sold” never-theless sold last month for $147 US.
Th e brewery, on 7th Avenue near Monte Christo St., operated from about 1897 until sometime aft er 1905. Louis Blue was presi-dent, J.S. Deschamps secretary, (followed by S.E. Dias) and Ben Moyses manager.
In 1898, the compa-ny acquired the prop-erty of the Yuengling Brewing Co. of Trail, established by indus-try titan David G.
Yuengling. His son Frederick moved to Rossland to become manager — and was later accused of ab-sconding back to the US with $387 in com-pany funds (well over $8,000 today).
He was arrested and the British Con-sul-General sought his extradition, but according to the New York Times, somehow “managed to get out of that scrape.” Still, he met a bitter end in 1908: aft er being ar-rested for passing a bad cheque, he died of chronic alcoholism in the prison ward of Bellevue hospital.
Th e Times wrote that Frederick “in his
palmy days was said to occupy the hand-somest apartment in the city,” and was linked romantically to a baroness — but his hard living fi nally caught up with him.
D.G. Yuengling & Son, established in 1828, is now the old-est brewer in America, with headquarters are in Pottsville, Pennsyl-vania.
Th ree other Lion Brewery bottles have appeared before on eBay. Th e fi rst, in 2007, failed to meet the reserve price but sold a few months later for $61 US.
Th e others popped up last year and went for $77 and $120 US.

Teck Trail furnace project put on holdTeck Trail Opera-
tions announced last week that it will put its construction of the $210 million No. 4 Furnace Project on hold.
Th e company cited uncertain global eco-nomic conditions be-hind the decision to defer the project in-defi nitely.
Th e project is on hold not cancelled, said Richard Deane, Teck’s public aff airs manager.
“Firstly, global market conditions are such that Teck is getting our capital spending in line with our current cash fl ow,” explained Deane.
“And the deferral of the No. 4 Furnace Project is part of a package of projects where spending is ei-ther being deferred or slowed down.”
Impact on staff is expected to be negli-gible.
“Th e Teck employ-ees who were dedicat-ed to this project are going to be deployed to other areas of Trail Operations. Th ere is still some continued work required in or-der to fully prepare the area of the No. 4 project for a restart when we make a de-cision to restart con-struction.
“Th e contract work that would have oc-curred will now be postponed until we make a decision to re-start.”
Th e deferral of the furnace project is the only one to af-fect Trail Operations with other projects in Chile, Alberta and elsewhere in B.C. also impacted.
“Teck remains com-mitted to the long-term sustainability of Trail Operations,” said Greg Belland, general manager, Trail Operations, in a press release. “Current pro-duction, including end-of-life electronics and lead acid battery
recycling, will not be impacted by deferral, and construction of the $125 million No. 1 Acid Plant will con-tinue.”
Th e No. 4 Furnace Project was designed
to increase Teck’s ca-pacity for recycling end-of-life electron-ics.
Th e project was un-veiled in September 2011 and preliminary work had begun with
site preparation and allocation of space.
Th e major excava-tion and construction of the No. 4 Furnace building itself has not yet commenced, the company said in its
release.When Teck an-
nounced the construc-tion of the furnace last year, it included the construction of a new slag fuming fur-nace and settling fur-
nace to be located in a building at the south-east corner of the property, overlooking downtown and the Columbia River.
Trail Operations began recycling tele-
visions, computers and other electronic items on a trial ba-sis in 2006, and was designated as a repro-cessing site when the B.C. program started up in 2007.

Sculpture TalkRabi’a
‘Dancing Myself ’ (steel, glass and ceramic)
Like her “never to be repeat-ed” artworks, Rabi’a is one of a kind. One of eight children born in Holland, she has lived around the world before set-tling on her Slocan Valley oasis where she cultivates extensive gardens, operates her bed and breakfast (the Artful Lodger, in a literary nod to Dickens) and creates her highly original art pieces.“I’ve explored a lot of diff erent mediums over the years, and continue to incorporate them into works I’m busy with,” she says. “Lately my passion has been mosaics created from all sorts of things – glass, bits of ceramic, stones, mirror shards – that I come across in my for-ays. I’ll use them all.“With this self portrait, I’ve incorporated my passion for metalwork with mosaics. ‘Dancing Myself ’ is the result of my life-long credo – “Just do it!” – so of course I did.” She laughs as she explains the shared purchase of a welder prompted the current burst of creativity using metal and steel.Th e ten foot high sculpture is a feast of colour and form. Oversized metal hands and feet fl ail, bangles festooning the arms, while the mosaic pants encircle a tiny waisted, shirted torso splashed with bits of ceramic and glass. Th anks to the intricate mo-saic work the piece is abstract and incredibly detailed at the
same time, capturing the joy and sensuality of rhythm and movement nicely.Always eager to enhance her artistic passions, Rabi’a’s new-found love of mosaics took her to Barcelona to study the work of the one of the masters of the form, the late Anthony Gaudi. “I learned so much in such a short time. Now, I’m forever on the lookout for materials to work on. Nothing is safe!” she laughingly exclaims. “Kitchen sinks, farm implements, stones and found metal are just some of the materials I’ve done mosaics on, and they are all uniquely beautiful in my opinion.”Th ey are that, though never mollycoddled. Rabi’a dots them throughout her acreage, combining two of her endur-ing loves. “My gardens are the stage for my art. My sculptural mosaic pieces are happy to be
outside in the gardens and the weather. Th ey show beauti-fully in the changing natural light of the day, and enhance the natural beauty I’m sur-rounded by.”Like her art in all its various mediums, Rabi’a is original and creative. Whether roam-ing scrapyards, studying with the masters or wielding her torches and brushes she’s content, and always engaged to the fullest at any given mo-ment.
“With this self portrait, I’ve
incorporated my passion for
metalwork with mosaics.”

Greyhound Canada Transportation bus ser-vices may be reduced or eliminated to Grand Forks, Greenwood and Midway by the end of this year. An application was submitted to the B.C. Passenger Board on Oct. 3 by Grey-hound to reduce the minimum frequency of routes throughout Brit-ish Columbia. Grant Odsen, regional man-ager for passenger ser-vices for Greyhound,
explained that this was due to the reduced numbers of passengers who have been using the services. “Th e ser-vice right now is that there’s one trip operat-ing seven days a week for each direction and there’s another trip that runs three days a week in each direction,” he explained.

CommunitySuperstar play coming to Nelson
Arron Nelson in the role of Jesus (middle) during rehearsal for Jesus Christ Super-star.
With the Nelson production of Jesus Christ Superstar just under a week away, cast and crew are busy in fi nal rehearsals for the rock opera.
Th e well-known Andrew Lloyd Webber opera fi rst launched in early 1970s and this is the fi rst time it will be brought alive on the Capitol Th e-atre stage.
Th e six-run show — directed by Kevin Armstrong — opens Novem-ber 8 and closes November 11. It has a cast of 58 people, an 18-piece band, a dynamic production team, and the
backing of the Amy Ferguson Insti-tute and Nelson Community Opera.
Jesus Christ Superstar is a trag-edy, with Judas Iscariot arguably the protagonist; Mary Magdalene and Jesus are represented as passionate humans, with great songs like I Don’t Know How to Love Him and Gethse-mane. Always in the background and foreground is the public crowd, the whimsical crowd, that follows a fad with adoration, and then condemns former heroes in the blink of an eye.
Tickets are available at the Capitol Th eatre box offi ce, by phone (250-352-6363) or online at www.capi-toltheatre.bc.ca.

ARIES (MAR 21 – APR 20)The capacity to see things clearly and to take effective action comes and goes – some days and cycles are simply better than others. The cycles of change indicates rises and falls, like the waxing and waning Moon. It is all good and natural, yet how we tune-in and handle these processes, especially the waning cycles, is important and sometimes we need help, like perhaps now.
TAURUS (APR 20 – MAY 21)The focus on relationships is front and center. Between realizing a clearer sense of your own individuality within the context of relationship and feeling fulfi lled regarding needs and desires makes for a complex plot. Ambitious and determined to suc-ceed, you are a force to reckon with. Creating a win/win ever requires creative thinking and diplomatic wisdom.
GEMINI (MAY 21 – JUN 21)Deep changes in your overall lifestyle are underway. It is time to undergo some kind of education, training or apprenticeship. This is not a good time to lean on laurels or even past patterns. Stepping back from your situation will help you to decipher the sort of refi nements needed in your overall approach towards a healthier daily rhythm.
CANCER (JUN 21 – JUL 22)Somehow you are in for a long haul now. Big changes have occurred, there is no returning to the way it was; you must move on. If only you could feel more confi dent on all fronts. The key is to accept the complexity of the process. Exercising that much more critical analysis now and a willingness to work that much harder both without and to create peace within, is the call.
LEO (JUL 22 – AUG 23)Deep within at core reaches of your being fears are being stirred. These are the fears that often arise at the prospect of laying claim to deeper layers of one’s power. Greater effort, courage and responsibility are implied in achieving and holding power. For now, fi nd ways to play with and simply entertain the prospects of accessing hidden reserves of power.
VIRGO (AUG 23 – SEP 22)A growing thirst for knowledge, answers, insights and fresh angles of perception and approach is underway. While this includes increasing returns, it is also linked to realizing ideals of achievement and aspects of self-actualization. To succeed, you need to dig deeper than usual. Aim for increased comprehension of complex matters to fortify your overall foundation.
LIBRA (SEP 22 – OCT 22)A new day has dawned for you. Now it is time to take inventory of your resources, potentialities and opportunities. Fortunate-ly your energy levels are running high and so too are your powers of discrimination. Yet, you may still feel the need for space or to go somewhere new to support a fresh perspective. Do what you can to step back or away to broaden your scope.
SCORPIO (OCT 22 – NOV 21)Your ambition and determination levels are rising steadily. You feel strategic and determined to push through any opposition, within or without. Your entire lifestyle has already and is now changing and the pace is quickening. Yet, you also want har-mony and may feel confl icted at the prospect that your success is someone else’s defeat. Honest dialogue will help, a lot.
SAGITTARIUS (NOV 21 – DEC 21)The slow but sure process of disintegration of habitual lifestyle patterns has begun. It is important now that you take stock of the situation. A proactive approach is required. Since we are all creatures of habit, this is a call to review your own and to make initial efforts to replace outworn and/or unhealthy habits with better ones.
CAPRICORN (DEC 21 – JAN 19)Interactions with people holding key positions of power continue. Beyond wanting access to their infl uence, your deeper desire is to activate your own personal power and/or to position yourself for opportunity. To achieve your goal, however, you may have to go within to confront some of your own fears, limiting beliefs and/or character fl aws.
AQUARIUS (JAN 19 – FEB 19)You have received an invitation to lay claim to a new level of power. Have you answered yet? To succeed you must be willing to do the work and there is plenty to do. Yet, if you pace yourself and work with say, a 3 year plan, backed by due diligence, you will be successful. If you feel confused and/or unclear about what to do, seek counsel.
PISCES (FEB 19 – MAR 20)The next stage of a prolonged learning curve has begun and the slope is getting steeper. However it is precisely this challenge that you need. Anything less would not inspire your determination enough. Commitment remains a key word. You must answer the question ‘to what’? Your overall health is certainly implied.

Michael O’Connor
Horoscope for the Week November 2, 2012f thTip of the Week: Scorpio is a sign of mystery and intrigue. Coming to decipher the inner working and complexities of things is a feature of Scorpio’s domain. Ruled by both Mars and Pluto, which are symbolic of taking action or the execution of plans (Mars) and contending with the realities of power (Pluto), which includes our own and the myriad of outer factors that respectively represent ‘outer power’, are core features. The many questions and challenges we regularly face regarding power and the expression of it is an intricate and intrinsic feature of the drama of life. Currently, the actual voting process regarding the U.S. Presidential Election is underway. Given the scope of power and infl uence the United States exerts over the rest of the world, the outcome is important. The likelihood of a re-election for Barack Obama is indicated in the respective Astrological portraits of himself and Mitt Romney, his enigmatic opponent. It would almost seem that Mr. Romney received the short straw, a debt owed, prompting his decision to run for presidency. This theory points at deeper hidden powers pulling the strings from behind the scenes to ensure a certain outcome. While not a complete illustration of Scorpio, whose totem includes the eagle, the dove and the scorpion, this certainly is refl ective of some of the shadowy side of Scorpio’s complex and mysterious nature.
