Gordon Cranch My iWcrvujMy-- The past month at our church has been focused on choices. This is something each and every one of us is far too famiLiar with. Everyday we are required to make any number of choices. These range from the mundane - what cereal to have for breakfastj what program to watch on TV - to the more serious decisions of Life - should this be the day I quit smoking/drinking/gambling? Do I really want to get out of bed and go to church this bright sunny Sunday? I can't help you out with most of those decisions but I can assure you of one thing: in any choice that involves life and death, God tells you to choose life. I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Choose life, so that you and your descendants may live. Deut 30:19 Going back to the beginning of time in the Garden of Eden> Adam and Eve were presented with a choice - obey God or die. Even in the face of such a simple choicej they managed to choose to defy God and thereby sealed the fate of mankind that each of us will eventually die. There are few of us that face life and death choices that often in Life. Our lives are made up of many daily Lesser choices. But we still can choose to make the right decisionsj at Least most of the time. We can say "no" to increasing our debtj to pornographyj to all forms of oppression & bullying. We can say "yes" to community servicej to loving our neighbourj to random acts of kindness. Each and every one of these, as well as countless other right decisionsj are pleasing to God. If you have the right frame of mind and think about and consider the choices placed before you} reflect on the consequencesj it is often easy to see the right choicej perhaps a Little more difficult to actually choose it. Choices do have consequences, whether immediate or down the road. A dear friend who ended up with emphysema after many years of smoking, could not condemn the cigaretteSj what she could condemn was her choice to smoke. A seemingly harmless choice may often come back to haunt us in Later life. So I hope that you will choose to attend church this Easter season. This is the most important season of the Christian year. The grief of Good Friday turns into the triumph of Easter morning - the bedrock of Christianity and the eternal hope of generations of the faithful. Happy Easter! He is risen indeed!

So for example, when the sun sets, f.lux will adjust the colour of light being emitted - the light will be warmer (light orange- ish in colour). Because F.lux will automatical­ly adjust the colour of light being emitted from your device, you don't need to do anything else once you have set up your time-zone infor­mation. F.lux is availa­ble for Windows, Mac, Linux and the iPhone and iPad Archive Society of Alberta Issues Grant to Milo Library Archives The Access to Holdings Program provides ASA institutional members with funding for projects to se­lect, arrange, and describe archival records held by that institution.

The month of March began with Stu­dent-Led Conferences, where children had the oppor­tunity to show their parents what they are learning. March 14th was our 100th Day of school for this year. Students in grades 1 to 4 celebrated this event by do­ing many activities based on the number 100. They looked for objects that were 100 cm long or weighed 100 grams. They ate 100 snacks and did a number hunt, looking for all of the numbers up to 100 hidden around the room. They found out how long 100 of vari­ous objects are and did 100 physical activities (not all at once, thankfully). The Milo School Fun Spiel was also held on that day. Students from grades 5-9 were put into curling teams and played against each other. It’s always great to en­courage curlers of the future. The winners of the draw to the button contest were: Adam Prentice, Maci Deitz and Jacob Thornley. The curlers really enjoyed the experience and appreci­ated the “prizes” purchased from the store. A special thanks to the Milo Curling Club for keeping the ice in rink for us and to Chris Bartsch for preparing the ice for the students. Also, a big thank-you to the sponsors of this event: Marks Oilfield Services, CPS Milo, Scotiabank, Milo Green Foods and Old Dutch, Milo Lions and The Elevator. Thanks, also, to Charity Lewis for helping with the lunch and prizes, Ann Prentice, our unofficial photographer and Mrs. Burgess for coming in to help with the curling. And, a huge thanks to Mrs. Lahd who coached the students before and during the bonspiel. Both the 100 Day celebrators and the curlers enjoyed a delicious hot dog lunch. On March 19th, students from grades 3 - 5 in Miss Snelgrove's music class treated the resi­dents of Extendicare and Peter Dawson Lodge to lovely singing. The next day we all were in awe as we watched Hoop Dancer, Teddy Anderson, perform. Through his dances, Teddy shared with us the message that although we are all different, when we support each other and are kind to each other we make the world a better place. Audience participation was also part of the pres­entation, and I it was obvious that I need to cross Hoop Dancing, as my next career, off my list. Following the presentation, Teddy worked with each class, teaching them some of the tricks with hoops and continuing to reinforce the message of being kind to each other. It was, as one student commented, “like magic”. Thanks to the Milo School Foundation for making this experience possible.MILO SCHOOL NEWS On Wednesday, March 26 the grade 7-9 students par­ticipated in an interactive presentation called “Learning Clicks”. This presentation, available for no charge through Alberta Education, focused on motivating and preparing young people for education and training be­yond high school. As it is badminton season, G-Nel Nelson is presently coaching several students interested in competing in the District competition taking place at CCHS in Vulcan on the afternoon of April 15. A big thank-you to G-Nel for volunteering to prepare these students for the competi­tion. We wish all of our competitors the best of luck! As you can see, it has been another busy and fun-filled month of learning. I hope that when I write my next Can- Opener article it really will be spring. I know for sure the students are in spring mode, as they have already begun soccer season, snow and all. *0 ')■>-« Upcoming Events April 10 Leadership conference April 17 Inline skating .

Please submit resumes to the Village Office detailing qualifications and expectations for compensation by no later than 4:00 PM on Tuesday, April 15th. Please phone me at the Village Office at [phone] or contact me by email at [e-mail] should you have any questions. In other business, both villages are presently organizing their Municipal Planning Commissions to act as the subdivision and development authority within the municipality. These commissions are composed of two elected councilors and one member-at-large appointed by the Village Council. Serving on Arrowwood’s Municipal Planning Commission is Matt Crane, Bill Graff and Gary Pelland, while on Milo’s Municipal Planning Commission is Rafael Zea, Scott Schroeder and Leigh Vooys. Councilors Clydine Grenier and Barry Monner sit on the regional appeal board as the respective members for Arrowwood and Milo. At the present time, both villages are operating with Land Use Bylaws that date back to 1998. The Oldman River Regional Services Commission is advising that these bylaws be updated to include newer and clarified language that will make development issues easier to navigate. Arrowwood has received a draft version of a new land use bylaw that the Village Council will now be giving closer scrutiny toward, and Milo will likely undertake this process in the near future as well. Since public consultation on a new land use bylaw is mandated by the province, you will be hearing more about this matter. Arrowwood and Milo will be issuing a clarification on how the Village’s assess a parcel of land for purposes of taxation. This became an issue last year in Milo with the advent of a minimum tax, one that was complicated by having what is considered to be an “old” municipal plan created prior to July 1st 1950. Similarly, Arrowwood has an old plan as well, one that is further “nuanced” by a historical quirk—of sorts—since it originally oriented toward Railway Avenue as main street (as is my understanding) and not what we consider Centre Street today. Actual springtime is right around the corner. . Ok, maybe. . Hopefully!

I'm covered in broth!Massage Frequently Asked Questions. Do Olympic athletes use massage therapists? Yes! Most athletes use massage therapy to reduce die effects of gmeling repetitive workouts and retain the flexibility needed to avoid injury. What are some of the benefits of massage? Massage improves posture, relaxation, circulation, joint flexibility, promotes deeper/easier breathing, immune functions, may reduce blood pressure, pain, spasm, tension headaches, stress, swelling, scar tissue formation. Massage and/or Myofascial Release, when applied by a professionally trained massage therapist, may reduce the severity of injuries, reduce recovery time, and, when used regularly, actually decreases the likelihood of injury. Massage therapy and Myofascial Release do not replace the need for medical attention in the case of injury or illness What is a Swedish massage? The term "Swedish massage" refers to the various techniques designed to relax muscles by applying pressure to them against deeper muscles and bones, and rubbing in the same direction as the flow of blood returning to the heart. This increases oxygen flow in the blood while reducing toxins in the muscles. Swedish is probably the most well known and most widely requested massage. What is therapeutic massage? This is a skillful manipulation of muscle, tendon and other soft tissues using varying pressure and motion to achieve positive emotional and physical results. You may undress to your level of comfort and will be professionally draped dunng the session. What is Myofascial release “Cupping"? This is a generally gentle approach for stretching and releasing restrictions in the connective tissue throughout the body with the goal of eliminating pain, increasing range of motion and balancing the body. I do this using either plastic or silicone cups. I’m pregnant Can I Still get a massage? Absolutely Massage can be very beneficial for women dunng pregnancy. However, be sure to let the massage therapist know you are pregnant so they can assure your safety and comfort. This is especially' true if you are in the first trimester, when it may not be obvious that you are pregnant How Often Should I Schedule? Although a single session will be enjoyable, many of the effects are cumulative and a course of treatments will bnng the most benefits. Regular sessions can help to prevent unnecessary strains and injuries that might otherwise occur due to excess tension and its resulting structural weaknesses. How often you schedule is a personal decision. If time and money were no object, how often would you like to receive a session? 1 recommend you weigh the benefits of your sessions and set a schedule that fits both your time and financial budgets. Do you offer gift certificates? Yes! I offer a great deal starting January 1, If you buy a gift certificate for 1 hr. or more you will receive * 10 off YOUR next massage. Are your rates competitive? Yes! For 2014 only '50 for 1 hour, and *70 for one and a half hours.

To look forward, I would first like to review the history, as many people may not know about the co-op's past. I am going from memory so dates are not exact. Community members found a genuine need to create the co-op after the cafe in Milo had closed. The building was in such disrepair that there was no interest to reopen it in any fashion. I remember various attempts to get another establishment going, including a cafe operating in the basement of the old hall for a short time. The town of Milo was a dead place even though there were more businesses than there are at present. A cafe brings people to town and enhances the community in so many ways. It was an eye opener to see the negative effect that a lack of a restaurant had on the town. So in the mid to late 70's community members created the co-op and sold memberships for 200 dollars,($195 loan and $5 membership fee). The funds raised were used for a prefab building and to stock it with equipment. It has been leased out over the years to a number of operators. An addition for living quarters was built at some point. Maintaining ownership has been a good idea and worked well for us. Other towns have had their share of trouble when they have sold their building and lost control of what they built. But, over time everything becomes in need of repair, and the co-op has met and continues to meet these challenges. We have and expect to continue to replace equipment and make repairs to the building. Finances dictate to address the critical issues first and be careful with the rest of our money. The board has been approached by the Milo Sustainability Group with the suggestion that the building is showing it's age and it could benefit the co-op, cafe and the whole community by renovating and giving it a face lift, tummy tuck and maybe a day at the spa! I agree with the group wholeheartedly but the co-op is in no position to carry out such an endeavor without a major increase in revenue. When I went on the board some years ago I was surprised to see that I was one of the youngest members that had purchased a share. We were able to sell a few more shares last fall after a sparsely attended open community meeting. Also, many elders or their estates have donated their shares back to the co-op. When the co-op was first started there were community members that bought multiple shares and likely had no intention to ever ask for their loan back! This happened in the 70's when 200 dollars was a lot of money. Our elders knew the value of having a cafe in Milo. So what do we need? A substantial sale of shares would certainly help. Taking inflation into account a $200 investment is minimal compared to what the original members contributed. Everyone's situation is different though so I would ask only you give it your consideration. I know I have blown a couple hundred dollars in some pretty stupid ways; it's not hard to do. I think that investing in the co-op can benefit my business as well as make my life better,(some nights I am so tired of cooking) right Donna? If I had to take her elsewhere think of the fuel I'd burn! Frankly I am not sure everyone understands what not having a cafe would be like; it is a convenience we are all used to and only losing it would really bring home how much it affects our town. Please give purchasing shares your consideration as we pursue a renovation. Think hard about how much influence the cafe has and what we all need to contribute in order to keep our community flourishing. If you have questions or concerns you can contact me.

"Buildings house memories and social context. There are 3 stages possible for historical buildings: Preservation, Remodelling, and Renovation. These stages encourage the creation of local jobs, historical rehabilitation and building re-use. This helps to create distinction and differentiation of your community. Stats say that 2 -3 % revitalizing of building stock per year creates sustainable jobs in the work trades. The relationship between labour to materials for a new building is 50/50. When repurposing a building, it changes to 70% labour vs. only 30% on materials helping both the economy and the environment. Reusing buildings avoids negative environmental impacts while helping to maintain the threads of history that create a sense of place. Setting in motion key opportunities for re-investment in our local economy are key to establishing sustainability. Over the years, it seems that the level of craftsmanship has decreased. There are lesser lifetimes for buildings now with minimal special craftsmanship and architecture. What are we buying when we spend our money? Reuse what you have. Re-invest in the infrastructure that's already here. Continue the story the community founders started so long ago. What will drive the use of these buildings in the future? Manage change to understand what's coming. How can we improve what's here now? Which buildings best connect us to the past yet remain relevant for the future?” As I watched this documentary, it made me think about the history laden within our Village and area and the work that was done for the Municipal Heritage partnership project. Ultimately, it is up to us as a community and individuals to decide what is best for our Village in planning for the future but also preserving our rich history. I really enjoyed the message of this documentary and love to learn more about the history of this area that 1 now call home.
