The City of Merritt will celebrate Ron Sherwoods years of civic service on Monday, March 25, 10am in Council Chambers, where he will be presented a Note of Appreciation by Mayor & Council, for his years on City Council. Ron served 16 years on Council: 19871990, and1997-2008. He was a driving force behind the Liquid Waste Mgt Plan, and a member of several Council Committees, including the Heritage Commission. Prior to his role as a city councillor, he served as a volunteer firefighter for many years. Ron contributed to the governance and safety of our community over the many years he lived and owned a business in Merritt. He & Joan retired to Victoria last year, but returns often to visit family and friends.

His method was to work with people for the best possible outcome for all involved. Ron was from a time when public service meant serving; when promising to do something meant actually following through with it; and when being responsible for snow removal meant mobilizing the plows when it started to snow no matter the time of day, scraping it into piles in the middle of the streets & hauling it away! So, stop in on Monday, and say thanks to Ron for his dedication to our town. Hes the one to thank when we remember the good old days when they plowed the snow away from the curb, loaded it into trucks, and actually removed it. Thanks for everything, Ron! Kim Leclair Resolutions regarding limiting wireless networks in schools, proposed by the NV Teachers' Union, evidently never really got off the ground during the BC Teachers' Federation AGM last weekend. Several contentious resolutions suggesting health hazards from wireless technologies in school were abandoned Monday before they could be debated at the BCTF annual general meeting. Resolutions called on boards of education to stop installing wireless networks in schools where other networking technology is feasible and to designate one school at elementary, middle and secondary levels to be free of wi-fi for educators and families who are worried about possible health effects. The resolutions were divisive, and debate was fierce on Twitter before the issue hit the convention floor. Those who supported the resolutions said exposure to electromagnetic fields may be responsible for various ailments among teachers and students, such as headaches, nausea, vertigo, anxiety and fatigue. They also complained that the Education Ministry was pushing wi-fi installation without consulting teachers. Others said such claims are groundless and noted that Health Canada takes the position that low-level exposure to radio-frequency energy from wireless connections is not dangerous. Wi-Fi exposure levels are typically well below Canadian and international exposure limits, and there is no convincing evidence that they are a health hazard, it states on its website.

Just so theres no confusion

Billy and Bubba, were walking home together after each had purchased a pig. Billy said to Bubba, "How are we going to tell them apart?" Bubba answered, "We'll cut the left ear off of your pig." And so they did. After a while, the pigs got into a fight and they had bitten off each others ears. Billy asked, "Now what are we going to do?" "Well, how about if we cut the tail off of my pig?" Bubba replied. "That sounds like a good plan to me," Billy agreed. A little while later, the pigs got into another fight, and when it was over, they were both missing their tails. "What will we do now?" Bubba asked Billy. After giving it some thought, Billy replied, "Well, we could cut the leg off of yours." "That's not humane!" Bubba cried. So after some more thought, Billy said, "Well, let's do this. We'll just call the white one yours and the black one mine."
