June 2021 LINKS Newsletter A New Season! When looking back to last June, who would have anticipated events that unfolded over the past year? Zoom, TEAMS and WFH (working from home) are part of our ver- nacular, and the words, ‘quarantine’, ‘lockdown’ and ‘virus’ all have new meaning. With the recent Government of Alberta’s announcement of Phase 3 beginning soon, we are planning for an in-person Annual Clinic Coordinator meeting this September 16th, in Edmonton. Public Health orders and advisories will be followed and, if neces- sary, adjustments can be made prior to the meeting. The Rajani FASD Ax and Dx Clinic Training Services is celebrating its 10-year anniversary, and this meeting will recognize and honour the past decade of building relationships, supporting, and connecting with clinics across Alberta. Stay tuned for more information about this meeting, including hotel room bookings. We are pleased to welcome Kelly Rogers to our team. Some of you may remember Kelly as the clinic coordinator with the NW Central Network from 2011-2014. She will be providing assistance to our projects’ work over the next months. Amber Bell has been actively involved and influential to the success of our program for a number of years, including her contributions to: pilot projects; training clinicians on the University of Washington Facial Software program; research papers; and developing a TIPS sheet for the Disability Tax Credit application. Amber has stepped aside to devote time to her other obligations and we wish her well, but will continue to see her in- volvement with FASD. With this ‘Open for Summer’ plan, please continue to support your clients and others to understand how effective vaccines are in preventing COVID-19 disease and its protection against severe COVID-19 illness, risk of hospitalization or death. Find time to enjoy the sights, sounds and tastes of spring and summer!

Crystal’s Miracle Minutes Set or clear a print area on a worksheet A print area is one or more ranges of cells that you designate to print when you don't want to print the entire worksheet. When you print a worksheet after defining a print area, only the print area is printed. You can add cells to expand the print area as needed, and you can clear the print area to print the entire worksheet. A worksheet can have multiple print areas. Each print area will print as a separate page. Set one or more print areas 1. On the worksheet, select the cells that you want to define as the print area. Tip: To set multiple print areas, hold down the Ctrl key and click the areas you want to print. Each print area prints on its own page. 2. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click Print Area, and then click Set Print Area. Note: The print area that you set is saved when you save the workbook. To see all the print areas to make sure they’re the ones you want, click View > Page Break Preview in the Workbook Views group. When you save your workbook, the print area is saved too. Add cells to an existing print area You can enlarge the print area by adding adjacent cells. If you add cells that aren’t adjacent to the print area, Excel creates a new print area for those cells. 1. On the worksheet, select the cells that you want to add to the existing print area. Crystal’s Miracle Minutes 2. On the Page Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click Print Area, and then click Add to Print Area. When you save your workbook, the print area is saved as well.

Links, Training & Webinars This newly released book by Dr. Mansfield Mela, provides clinically relevant information for mental health experts, including professionals in the medical, mental, educational, vocational, legal and correctional, child welfare, and others, who encounter individuals with a hidden disability. Professionals require essential training to appropriately support patients who navigate the mental health system because of the consequences of prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE). Because curricula have only recently begun to incorporate this material, a text providing basic as well as advanced information is necessary. This book is significant because its content is useful for professional training across many mental health disciplines. It covers information missing from curricula about the long-term effects of PAE (fetal alcohol spectrum disorder ["FASD 101"]) and includes clinical information on the mental disorders relevant to FASD. Given the burgeoning research and knowledge in this area, the text also updates, synthesizes, and consolidates current information into one source. Even seasoned mental health professionals well versed in the research data can use this information to become better educated and informed on the intersecting mental health consequences of PAE. • Prenatal Alcohol Exposure can be purchased through Amazon or Login.

Northern British Columbia) Field Guide Compiled by: Dan and Lea Pennock This Guidebook could be referenced as: Pennock D. and L. Pennock. 2014. Soils and Landscapes of the Front Ranges, Foothills, and Great Plains. Field Trip Guide. Canadian Society of Soil Science Annual Meeting, Banff, Alberta May 2014. 18 p. 2 3 Banff Park In the fall of 1883, three Canadian Pacific Railway construction workers stumbled across a cave containing hot springs on the eastern slopes of Alberta's Rocky Mountains. From that humble beginning was born Banff National Park, Canada's first national park and the world's third. Spanning 6,641 square kilometres (2,564 square miles) of valleys, mountains, glaciers, forests, meadows and rivers, Banff National Park is one of the world's premier destination spots. In Banff’s early years, The Canadian Pacific Railway built the Banff Springs Hotel and Chateau Lake Louise, and attracted tourists through extensive advertising. In the early 20th century, roads were built in Banff, at times by war internees, and through Great Depression-era public works projects. Since the 1960s, park accommodations have been open all year, with annual tourism visits to Banff increasing to over 5 million in the 1990s. Millions more pass through the park on the Trans-Canada Highway. As Banff is one of the world's most visited national parks, the health of its ecosystem has been threatened.

  • ALBERTA FLOODS: Two Year Progress Report
    ALBERTA FLOODS: Two Year Progress Report Two years ago, floodwaters devastated properties and uprooted the lives of thousands of people across southern Alberta. From Calgary to Canmore in the west, High River and Medicine Hat in the south, and all points in between, the flood destroyed homes, businesses, and farmland. Canadian Red Cross knows that needs emerge over time following a disaster of this magnitude. Emotional, financial, and family stresses continue to challenge Albertans and we, along with our donors and supporters, are here to help with their on-going recovery and resiliency. We are genuinely grateful for your trust in the Canadian Red Cross. We offer sincere thanks for the exceptional support shown to us and Albertans. This report celebrates the resiliency of the people and communities affected by the flood, and some of the outstanding achievements of what can be accomplished by collaborating together to help build a better tomorrow. We are inspired and encouraged by the strength of our fellow citizens and our communities. RED CROSS RESPONSE: RECOVERY AND BEYOND While much has been accomplished in the two years since the Alberta floods in June 2013, our work is not done. As families, individuals, and businesses move forward with their recovery, Red Cross continues to have a steady presence in High River and the First Nations communities. Some southern Albertans are only now seeking assistance as their financial and emotional reserves are depleted. We are committed to continuing our work with Albertans as they recover from this disaster. EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS INITIATIVE OF CALGARY Even groups that help others deal with disaster can better prepare themselves for future crises.

    The 2013 flood event in the Bow and Oldman River basins; causes, assessment, and damages John Pomeroy1, Ronald E. Stewart2, and Paul H. Whitfield1,3,4 1Centre for Hydrology, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK, S7N 5C8. Phone: (306) 966-1426, Email: [email protected] 2Department of Environment and Geography, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, MB, R3T 2N2 3Department of Earth Science, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, BC, V5A 1S6 4Environment Canada, Vancouver, BC, V6C 3S5 Event summary In late June 2013, heavy rainfall and rapidly melting alpine snow triggered flooding throughout much of the southern half of Alberta. Heavy rainfall commenced on June 19th and continued for three days. When the event was over, more than 200 mm and as much as 350 mm of precipitation fell over the Front Ranges of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Tributaries to the Bow River including the Ghost, Kananaskis, Elbow, Sheep, Highwood, and many of their tributaries all reached flood levels. The storm had a large spatial extent causing flooding to the north and south in the Red Deer and Oldman Basins, and also to the west in the Elk River in British Columbia. Convergence of the nearly synchronous floodwaters downstream in the Saskatchewan River system caused record high releases from Lake Diefenbaker through Gardiner Dam. Dam releases in Alberta and Saskatchewan attenuated the downstream flood peak such that only moderate flooding occurred in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. More than a dozen municipalities declared local states of emergency; numerous communities were placed under evacuation order in Alberta and Saskatchewan. More than 100,000 people needed to evacuate their homes, and five people died.
