No evidence from Mantler in assault trial Alistair Waters

STAFF REPORTER

The Okanagan’s stifling summer traffic yielded deadly returns for motorcyclists this week. A 22-year-old man was killed following a Tuesday crash that shattered his bike, while another Kelowna motorcyclist is fighting for his life following a same-day smash-up in Penticton. The first happened in front of the Okanagan College campus on KLO Road. Mounties say a westbound Suzuki motorcycle was travelling in the lefthand lane of KLO Road close to 3:30 p.m. when it collided with an eastbound VW Cabriolet making a left hand turn into the college parking lot. The Suzuki went into a skid and the motorcycle was laid down prior to impact with the VW. “It was struck very hard and disintegrated,” said Cpl. Andy Burpee, noting it was smashed up into so many pieces, that it was difficult to determine the make of the bike. “Motorbikes will come apart with a hard enough impact.”

BEACH WEATHER…The 30 C plus temperatures this week are giving local parents and visiting tourists a chance to entertain the kids by spending a day at the beach, as was the case here on Wednesday at Rotary Beach in Kelowna.

The case against a Kelowna RCMP officer accused of assaulting a Prince George man downtown two years ago wrapped up Tuesday without the Mountie’s lawyer presenting any evidence or calling his client to testify. In a surprising move, Cont. Geoff Mantler’s lawyer, Neville McDougall, announced he would not be presenting any evidence when Crown council Will Burrows finished presenting the case for the prosecution. Mantler is accused of assaulting Manjeet Bhatti in the early hours of August 2010, after Mantler and his partner, Const. Rick Goodwin, saw what Goodwin testified were two men conducting a drug deal in a parking lot behind the Toronto Dominion Bank on Ellis Street. Bhatti, an admitted Geoff Mantler drug addict, said he was buying two rocks of crack cocaine at the time. He testified he fled on a bicycle when he felt he was going to be robbed by the men—he said there was more than one—and encountered Goodwin and Mantler in a marked police cruiser as he fled. Goodwin testified that Bhatti was told to stop because he was not wearing a bike helmet but swore at the officer and pedalled away. He was located a short time later by the officers on Harvey Avenue. Bhatti maintains he was hit on the head, either by Mantler’s fist or elbow, as he was handcuffed and waiting to be put into the back of the police cruiser. The blow, he said, knocked him to the ground and broke his glasses. On the stand Tuesday, Goodwin said he was the one who grabbed Bhatti pushed him up against the car after Bhatti help up his hands saying he was surrendering.

Phantom co-stars recreate musical magic Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

He’s one of the top 10 most popular Phantom’s in the world and the Welsh operatic legend is on his way to the Okanagan to perform with a local soprano. Peter Karrie has played the role of the Phantom in Andrew Lloyd Webber’s the Phantom of the Opera so many times in this country he was made an honorary Canadian for his efforts. And, when he went looking for a soprano a couple of years ago to help him with a performance in Kamloops, he logged onto Melina Moore’s website and built a friendship with the Vernon resident that is changing the valley’s cultural history. “He contacted me from London and asked if I knew some of the repertoire,” Moore recalled. “I did and agreed to work with him, and since then, we’ve been friends and colleagues.” The friendship has worked out well for opera fans in the valley. From July 23 through July 27 the pair will give five performances of The Phantom and Les Misérables material in unique settings like the Summerhill Pyramid Winery’s pyramid before small select audiences. “It’s exhilarating to sing with Peter. Despite the fact that he’s performed this music thousands of times, he still has this way of making it seem like his first crack at it,” said Moore. Karrie is a personal friend of Webber’s, so the pair want the concerts to pay tribute to his music and to the incredible craftsmanship it took to write the scores. Raised in New York and trained at the famous Julliard School, Moore is no slouch in the talent department herself. She came to this area after meeting her son’s father, who is from the Okanagan, at Julliard and says she’ll likely stay until he’s grown, teaching local students and giving concerts with groups like the Okanagan Symphony Orchestra. She still works outside the region several times a year, taking her son back to New York annually and accepting offers she figures won’t compromise her ability to parent. This year, she will join Karrie in Greece for the second annual Mediterranean Festival of the Arts. Moore enjoyed an idyllic summer in Greece with her family during her childhood, but this time the pressure will be on to perform for the 2000-plus fans that show up each night of the two-week affair. That said, in many ways the Okanag-

RCMP OFFICERS check scene of a crash involving a motorcycle and car on Highway 97 near the Penticton Regional Airport Monday afternoon. According to RCMP South Okanagan Traffic Services, the male rider of the motorcycle from Kelowna suffered life-threatening injuries in the collision. Police say speed and driving behaviour may have been factors in the accident. Names have not been released.

PETER KARRIE (left) has become one of the most popular actors to play the lead role in the Phantom Of The Opera musical, while soprano Melina Moore has forged a professional singing relationship with Karrie beyond her costarring role in Phantom productions. an performances will be more difficult in her mind. “Peter and I have to be very well rehearsed because of the intimacy of the show. We’re very exposed and vulnerable, so we need to know our stuff,” she said. Karrie’s other acclaimed roles have include the original Che in Evita for the first national tour of Britain, Jean Valjean in Les Miserables for more than a decade at London’s Palace Theatre, Judas in Jesus Christ Superstar at the Palace Theatre, John Blackthorn in James Clavell’s Shogun on Broadway, Fagin in the acclaimed Cameron Macintosh production of Oliver!, Don Quixote in Man of La Mancha, Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof and Joby “Peg Leg” Churchill in the box office smash The Contender. Moore and Karrie will be accompanied by local pianist Jim Leonard on the tour. The tour dates include: July 23, 7:30 p.m., at the Summerhill Winery Pyramid, Kelowna; July 24, 7 p.m., at Haney Heritage Village Park, Salmon Arm; July 25, 7 p.m., at the Nk’Mip Desert Cultural Centre, Osoyoos; July 26, 7 p.m., Bench 1775 (formerly Soaring Eagle Winery), Naramata; July 27, 7 p.m., Sparkling Hill Wellness Resort, Vernon.

‘Motorcyclists have to be extra vigilant’ Accidents from A1 Burpee said that Tuesday’s incident appears to be related to speed on the part of the motorcyclist, despite the fact that the road was probably clogged with traffic. “A motorcycle can pick up speed fairly quickly…from light to light, a motorcyclist can pick up speed in excess of 100 km/hr or more.” He died in hospital from his injuries. The second incident happened on Highway 97

near the Penticton Regional Airport. According to Cpl. Bryce Petersen, a Honda motorcycle operated by a Kelowna man in his 30s was westbound on the highway when a small blue Pontiac pulled out from the entrance road to Sun Leisure mobile home park and the two collided. The two people in the car from Penticton received minor injuries, while the Kelowna man is in hospital with life threatening injuries. While RCMP say al-

cohol is not a factor, speed and driving behaviour may have played a part in the incident. Although the summer is starting with a grim tally, Burpee said local roads are no worse than usual. “It’s that time of year,” he said, noting that traffic congestion has some obvious results. And, he added, motorcyclists are particularly vulnerable. So far there have been three fatal motorcycle collisions in Kelowna—in

March, May and July— and the only common theme is carelessness. “Motorcyclists have to be extra vigilant of what cars and other traffic are doing,” he said. “And cars and trucks have to be aware of what’s around them. (Motorcycles) aren’t as big. They get into blind spots and you miss them, but everybody has to be wary.” Burpee said it’s best to check mirrors every 15 to 20 seconds, because road conditions change dramatically and quickly.

Library dispute sidelines book vans Richard Rolke CONTRIBUTOR

The labour dispute at Okanagan Regional Library is heating up again. This week until Saturday, members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees will not be operating delivery vans. “That will impact deliveries to the branches,” said Catherine Lord, an ORL director. That means items requested by patrons will be delayed. A similar action was taken by the union in early June as part of its dispute

with ORL over wages and benefits. Unionized staff has also not been collecting overdue fines and that will now also extend to fees for photocopying, promotional items (T-shirts) and facility rentals. Unionized branches affected by this job action include Cherryville, Falkland, Golden, Kelowna, Lake Country, Mission, North Shuswap, Westbank, Oyama, Peachland, Rutland, Salmon Arm, Silver Creek, Sicamous, South Shuswap and Vernon. Rose Jurkic, CUPE

1123 president, says that library workers continue to find ways to minimize the impact strike actions have on patrons. “Okanagan library workers encourage the community to come and use the library’s many services and facilities, while we aren’t collecting fees we are remaining open to serve our community.” Okanagan library workers have now been without a contract for 19 months. However, in other parts of the province libraries are successfully settling collective agree-

ments, Jurkic notes. Since 2009, nine libraries have ratified new collective agreements and all have done so without mediation, arbitration or strike action. The Fraser Valley Regional Library and Vancouver Island Regional Library are the most recent libraries to settle collective agreements. “CUPE’s bargaining team is ready to get back to the table and negotiate,” said Jurkic. “Modest wage improvements and extended benefit improvements remain our top priorities.”

Airport continues to grow

ver the past decade, one of the most successful business enterprises in this region has been the Kelowna International Airport. The continued growth of airport passenger traffic and the spinoff business potential still to be realized has made it a shining star for development. The fact that it is a government run business, under the auspices of the City of Kelowna, has also been a positive rather than a negative that even the

most hardcore business free enterprise anti-government spending types would have to acknowledge. Under the stewardship of previous director Roger Sellick and his successor Sam Samaddar, and with the support of city hall, the airport continues to raise its status as an international point of flight destination. In 2011, the airport served 1.4 million passengers while offering 64 non-stop daily commercial flights with a variety of different airlines, from Air Canada

250-763-7114 DELIVERY 250-763-7575

and Alaska Airlines to Horizon Air and WestJet. This week’s announcement that United Airlines will begin offering daily flights to and from Kelowna to Los Angeles is yet one more feather in the cap for our airport. It is a smart business move for United, recognizing that the Okanagan is a significant a tourist travel market to draw from, particularly in winter, as it is a tourist destination point. The Los Angeles route can

also help maximize potential connections beyond to the southwest United States, Mexico and Latin America. United is making a big-time investment in the potential for the Okanagan market, something that other venture investors will need to be encouraged to do if our economy and job creating capacity is able to wean off the dependence on the tourism and commercial retail sectors, and create new opportunities for job seekers.

Nuggets from Barlee’s gold pan of B.C. history S hortly after word came of the death of B.C. historian and politician Bill Barlee, my wife searched through her seemingly endless trove of B.C. books and produced half a dozen of his original self-published quarterlies, known as Canada West magazine. The earliest one is Winter 1970, where the publisher’s note advises that subscription rates were increasing 20 cents per year to $2.95. Subscriptions were up to more than 1,600 and counter sales were increasing, but costs were also up and Barlee refused to accept either display advertising or U.S. subscriptions. The only colour pages in the issue

are high-quality prints of four majestic paintings commissioned for the magazine. Irvine Adams’ scenes of sacred aboriginal sites in the Okanagan-Similkameen include The Gateway to Inkameep, where Barlee remarks: “Today that stream which once teemed with redfish no longer surrenders its once-valued harvest and the perimeter of the desert is gradually being eroded by man’s questionable progress.” With the typography of Old West wanted posters, Barlee provided tight-

VICTORIA ly sourced accounts of legends. VIEWS B.C.’s Lost Gold Mine

at Pitt Lake analyzes and adds to earlier accounts that begin with an aboriginal minTom er known as Slumach, Fletcher who would periodically arrive in New Westminster to squander a small fortune in gold, then disappear up the remote tidal lake. Slumach was hanged for murder in 1891 and in the next 70 years, 11 more men would die trying to find his secret. A scientist as well as a storytell-

er, Barlee concluded that the area’s geology is wrong and the fabled goldladen creek “probably does not exist.” A passion for prospecting runs through the magazines and hints at Barlee’s aversion to treasure-seeking Americans. They overran B.C. in historic waves to take gold, and according to Nelson Star reporter Greg Nesteroff, Barlee believed they continued to loot Canadian heritage sites. Nesteroff was inspired by Barlee’s work, and traced his lonely mission to restore the ghost town of Sandon, “the mining capital of the Silvery Slocan.” Barlee bought a surviving block of buildings in an effort to make Sandon another Barkerville, but heavy snow

collapsed them. As tourism minister, Barlee found money to build replicas, and construction began on three. But Barlee lost his Penticton seat to Bill Barisoff in the 1996 election, and today only half-built shells remain. “He was still selling Sandon’s restoration as an economic saviour for the region when he ran for federal office in 2000,” Nesteroff writes. “But by then he was ridiculed for it, and finished a distant second.” Barlee’s 1972 Canada West profile of the boomtown of Hedley would resonate in his career as an NDP See Fletcher A7

LETTERS â&#x2013;ź ENBRIDGE PIPELINE

A differing take on how Somewhere at public guardian trustee some time there worksâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;or doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;tâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;for seniors

will be a leak from oil pipeline Open letter to Kelowna residents: Re: Northern Gateway Pipeline. I will try to keep this letter short, because it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take many words to speak the truth. About a year ago I moved to Kelowna. I moved here to find work as an apprentice electrician and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come to love your sandy beaches in the summer and Big White in the winter. However, I will never forget where Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m from. I was born and raised in Terrace B.C. I have many friends there. My parents still live there. Now that area faces a huge threat: The Northern Gateway Pipeline. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever been there youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll know just how beautiful, wild and pristine it is. If you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been there I suggest you check it out. If the pipeline goes ahead, sure it might be fine. It might create lasting jobs. It might even be fine for years to come,

who knows. One thing is certain, though. Someday, maybe not today or tomorrow, but some day down the road something will go wrong. Oil will be spilled on that coastline or somewhere along that pipeline. My home town will be devastated. Then what? I admit, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know every single detail about the pipeline. But I do know that if something sounds wrong, looks wrong and feels wrong, it probably is wrong. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if this letter will actually reach that many of you. I doubt it will even persuade your feelings on this issue one way or the other, (most peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s minds are already made up). I realise Kelowna is a long way from Terrace, but you still live in BC so this does affect you. So, when asked about the pipeline, please just take a second to consider exactly whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at stake. Thanks for your time. Silvie Giannelia, Kelowna

Barlee led fight to preserve mines Fletcher from A6

MLA and cabinet minister in the 1990s. Hedleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nickel Plate and Mascot mines produced fortunes in gold, silver and copper before they played out, and Barlee led the fight to preserve their history. Today, you can tour the Mascot mine, a proud historical site with a spectacular climb up the rock face that serves as the Grouse Grind of the B.C. desert. I first discovered Barlee as a reporter at the Capital News in the early 1980s, when he did a weekly history show on CHBC television called Gold Trails and Ghost Towns. A bare-bones studio affair with tales and artifacts displayed for host Mike Roberts, the show lasted a decade.

THE MAGAZINES HINTS AT BARLEEâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S AVERSION TO TREASURESEEKING AMERICANS.

Barlee didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lack courage, quitting a teaching career in Trail and Penticton in 1969 to start his magazine. On subscription fees and a few classified ads, he built a lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work that allowed him to walk the boardwalks of history and the halls of power. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com. tfletcher@blackpress.ca

To the editor: I have just finished reading the column by Sharen Marteny which appeared in your June 5 issue, headlined How a Public Guardian can Support Seniors. First, I will readily admit that there is a place for the public guardian and trustee (PGT). However; Martenyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s column puts forth a much rosier picture than that which actually exists. Nowhere does she ever point out some of the serious faults of the PGT that must be avoided at all cost. Early in her column she states: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Seniors may have authorized someone else to make decisions through an enduring Power of Attorney, etc. If no such agreement is in place the PGT may be appointed.â&#x20AC;? This is absolutely untrue. What actually happens is even when there is an agreement in place, the first thing the PGT does is cancel any and all Power Of Attorney agreements, even if the document was originated when the senior was fully competent. An example of this â&#x20AC;&#x153;abuseâ&#x20AC;? of a seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rights was fully aired by both CBC TV and CBC Radio in Kelowna several months ago. If you want the details just search out â&#x20AC;&#x153;CBC and PGT.â&#x20AC;? What happens next is after cancelling any and all representation agreements a senior may have made, the PGT actually takes over all the seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s financesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;closes all bank accounts, takes ownership of any stocks, etc., and removes the contents of safety deposit boxes. The senior is literally left with nothing. Even a joint bank account is not safe. She goes on to point out the â&#x20AC;&#x153;PGT is independent of government.â&#x20AC;? Unfortunately, this is true, but what it also means is that while the PGT maintain they will react to family and friends concerns, once they make a decision, even if it goes against the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wishes, there is absolutely no recourse. There is no complaint resolution mechanism within the PGT. Their decision is final. Oh, they will say if you have a concern you can complain to the provincial ombudsman, but in reality what this means is by the time the ombudsman gets to

looking at the issue the senior has now passed away. For even more examples of the PGTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dictatorial attitude refer to the Elders Advocate Society of Alberta (www.elderadvocates.ca). Alberta has been more aggressive in dealing with seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; issues than B.C. and has had a Seniors Advocate Society since 1992. While B.C. has been very slow to respond to the need for a seniorsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; advocate, Alberta reports on the more egregious cases that have occurred in B.C. A perfect example is the 2009 case of George Brent and his wife Dolores of Montrose, B.C. In that case, the PGT took over the joint bank account of George and his wife, placed an attachment on the house title, and proceeded to move Dolores to a facility of their choice. George wanted her to be at home and she wanted to be there too. But it was not to be. Despite George having an enduring Power of Attorney, she was moved to Trail, Georgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Power of Attorney was cancelled and the PGT took over all their finances. The PGT state their goal is to â&#x20AC;&#x153;assist where there is no one else to do so.â&#x20AC;? This too is absolutely untrue. Even if there are friends or family able and willing to look after the person, the PGT will cancel all the arrangements the senior has made and take over themselves. It must be noted that they will do this only when the senior has significant money. The reason for this is simple: The PGT take a minimum of five per cent of the value of the entire estate as their

annual fee. For example, take a case where a senior has lived in their house for 60 years. Here in the Lower Mainland, it is now likely worth close to $1 million. A couple may have saved $100,000 over their lifetime so their estate is now $1.1 million. The PGT takes five per cent annually so their charge in this case would be $55,000 per yearâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s right, they charge the five per cent on the assessed value of the home as well. So to get the cash to pay their fees, the couple will sell the home, use some to pay for care for the owner, likely about $3,000 per month, plus be charged $55,000 annually for doing so. So the total cost to the person is now $91,000 annually which will deplete their estate in just a few years. Compare this to a family member or close friend who, in most cases, do not charge anything. Also, Marteny says if a seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health improves, the PGT will no longer be involved. Absolutely untrue. The only way to remove the PGT is to get a court orderâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; and that means time and money spent. Marteny also is in error when she says the PGT pays a seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expenses â&#x20AC;&#x153;out of a trust fund.â&#x20AC;? The PGT pays a seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expenses only from the funds the senior already has. They are indeed in a trust fund but only the seniorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funds are used. There is no way the PGT can pay one cent of expenses if the senior does not have the funds available. The PGT operates only with the clientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s funds. E. (Ted) Shier, North Vancouver

It’s time to give blood

Kelowna area residents are being urged to help top-up the blood supply at their local blood donor clinic before heading off on their summer

travels. Canadian Blood Services says it needs 4,300 more donors across Canada to book an appointment and donate blood

over the next three weeks. “We need 800 appointments in B.C. booked this summer to keep up with hospital demand, and patients are counting on more people to become blood donors,” said Ed Yee, regional director of donor and clinic services. “If you’ve made an appointment, please honour it. If you haven’t made

one, please book one today.” With a patient somewhere in Canada needing blood every minute of every day, a constant supply of new blood donations is required, say CBS officials. A single car accident victim may require as much as 50 units of blood and blood products to sur-

vive injuries. Blood services says increased traffic usually means more car accidents on roadways. Every donor who books and keeps an appointment this summer will provide the additional supply of blood products needed for hospital patients. According to CBS, currently only 60 per cent of blood donors are keep-

ing their donation appointments and with more people dying on Canada’s roads in the last 50 years than the number of Canadians killed in both world wars, the need continues to grow. To book an appointment today to donate blood, or for more information, visit blood.ca or call 1-888-2-DONATE (1-888-236-6283). -

Judge ponders Mantler trial verdict Trial from A1 Within seconds, he said, Mantler jumped out to the cruiser and came around the car to help him cuff Bhatti. It was then that Bhatti claims he was hit. But, Goodwin said he did not see Mantler hit Bhatti and, contrary to Bhatti’s claim, there was no blood pouring out of

the arrested man’s nose when he talked to him in the back of the police car. Goodwin testified his partner was calm on the night in question and he lost sight of Mantler and Bhatti just once, for less than a minute, as he picked up Bhatti’s bicycle and placed it in the trunk of the police car. He said he found Bhatti’s broken glasses

on the ground and tried to fix them before giving them back to the arrested man in the back of the police car. He said it was then that Bhatti asked Goodwin why he beat him up. “I told him I didn’t,” said Goodwin. During his testimony, Goodwin said Bhatti’’s injury and broken glasses could have occurred

when he pushed Bhatti up against the police car. Goodwin has not been charged with any crime. In his summation, McDougall said the Crown had not proved Mantler hit Bhatti and Goodwin testified that he did not see Mantler hit Bhatti. When Bhatti asked for medical assistance back at the police station, Goodwin told Mantler who, video shows, went into the cell to talk to Bhatti for about 30 seconds. He also passed on Bhatti’s accusation that he had been beaten by an officer to the watch commander, which is protocol. However, despite a complaint launched against Mantler by Bhatti a short time later, the officer did not provide a written statement to police investigators for 65 days, and that was only after consulting with a lawyer, according to Cpl. Jason Arnold, the officer tasked with looking into the complaint. “At the end of the day, if you’re not sure what to believe, the law is clear, you must acquit Const. Mantler,” McDougall told the court. Judge Mark Takahashi reserved judgement, saying he will render a decision in 10 days time. awaters@kelownacapnews

Kelowna’s downtown lakeshore, could soon be blanketed with public surveillance cameras. Thanks to a $250,000 grant from the province, the city has installed three security cameras in Stuart Park and plans to install as many as 12 more before the end of the year at locations along the waterfront, particularly at spots where special events are held. The plan calls for cameras from Waterfront Park to the new concession stand in City Park. City risk manager Lance Kayfish said the Stuart Park cameras, currently being tested and expected to go into service in a few weeks, are being installed to not only watch over the park but also help the city coordinate its security efforts in the area. While video collected during the test period will only be seen by a handful of people, including the technicians doing the testing, it will be destroyed at the end of the test. Video collected in future will

NEWS â&#x2013;ź POST-SECONDARY EDUCATION

Competition tough to attract foreign students to Canada L ast month the provincial government released its international education strategy. Its goal is to increase the two-way flow between international students attending B.C. education institutions as

well as increasing B.C. post-secondary studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opportunities to study abroad. Most post-secondary institutions offer exchange programs where B.C. students can complete a semester or more at an institution outside of Canada. For example, at Okanagan College our business students can apply to study at 17 different postsecondary institutions in Asia, Europe, North and Central America and Australia. These programs allow students to transfer credit back to their Okanagan College credential. Most of the public post-secondary institutions in B.C. encourage students, if possible, to complete at least one semester abroad to increase their international experience.

SCHOOLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S IN

Jane Muskens The other part of the International Education strategy includes increasing the number of international students attending B.C. post-secondary institutions. There are two main reasons why the B.C. government wants to see international student enrolments increase. The first is the amount of economic activity they generate. In 2010, international students spent $1.8 billion on tuition, accommodation and other living expenses, which created about 22,000 jobs and generated $66 million

in provincial government revenue. Tuition for international students is usually triple what a Canadian student would pay which allows colleges and universities to use this funding to create more seats for our students. According to their data, they expect that B.C. will gain an estimated 1,800 jobs and $100 million in GDP for every 10 per cent increase in the number of international students arriving in B.C. As the developing world begins to gain ground it is estimated that on a global level the number of international students, which is currently 3.3 million, will reach 7.2 million by 2025. Right now only four per cent of all international students attend a Canadian post-secondary institution.

The second reason is the potential opportunity for immigration. Who better to have applying for citizenship to Canada than a young student who has graduated from one of our schools and is already accustomed to Canadian culture and climate. This is where the government has tied jobs to education. In the report they outline a number of factors to determine which countriesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; international students are most likely to immigrate and would be suitable citizens. These factors include the total population of the country, its youth population (five to 24 years of age), income, education level, labour market needs, English language proficiency, current num-

ber of students in B.C., support for sending students abroad and trade/investment priority. With these factors the government listed the countries they would most like to attract international students. These countries are the United States, China, India, South Korea, Brazil, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Germany, Russia, Japan and France. Right now the government wants to increase the number of international students in the province by 50 per cent in four years. This means an additional 47,000 international students studying in B.C. Since 2008 growth in international students attending public post-sec-

ondary institutions in B.C. has grown by 35 per cent. To achieve a 50 per cent increase will require another 14,000 international students attending our B.C. colleges and universities. Right now, competition is tough when trying to attract bright young people from other countries to come to Canada. Many countries such as the United Kingdom, Australia and the United States are much more successful than us in getting these students into their classroom. How we do in the next four years should be interesting. Jane Muskens is the registrar at Okanagan College. jmuskens@okanagan.bc.ca

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of junk out there that can steer the well-meaning reader into a labyrinth of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;should and should notsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

It is one of the best books Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever read on

the topic. This book has a great understanding of not only our true nutritional needs with respect to our cellular biology but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very basic principles are ridicMarkus ulously easy to apply. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re someThiel one who constantly suffers from lethargy, achiness, bloating, weight gain, abdominal discomfort and just overall feeling very tired of feeling crappy for so long, then this book is for you.

cheaper on your grocery budget. Redundantly, it is simplicity in its simplest form. Just eat real food. It is what we are genetically made to eat. We have been evolving into this present form for over three million years, yet our diet choices have changed drastically only in the last 10,000 years. We simply are not made to drink soda or any of this overly refined foods that we find so readily available today. If you’re tired of being tired or unhappy with your overall health status and feeling older than your years, now is your time to turn over a new leaf. In addition to his book, Cordain also wrote a cookbook that is simple to follow. The food is fantastic, you feel great, you lose an enormous amount of weight you no longer need, you sleep better, you think better. You live better. Don’t you deserve that? We can live with the pain of discipline with the pain of disappointment. However, each one has very different outcomes. Choose to live. Markus Thiel is a chiropractor practicing in Kelowna.

Many of my patients have already incorporated its principles and 100 per cent of them absolutely loved the results that have ensued. The book is called The Paleo Diet by Dr. Lorne Cordain, who is a member of the faculty of the department of health and exercise science at Colorado State University. During the past two decades he has researched the effects of diet on human health and specifically examined links between modern diets and disease. This is one of the few books that will truly change your life. In essence, the Paleo Diet is about eating real food. Palaeolithic man evolved for over three million years. During that time his diet stayed essentially the same. Therefore, his physiology and genetic makeup supported that diet. We have only been farming and raising livestock on a large-scale basis for the last 10,000 years. We have been spraying chemicals and medicating our livestock for less than 100 years. Our genet-

ic makeup is made to support that of the Paleolithic diet not the one we’re inundated with today. Our body simply is just not made up to process food that is mass-produced and overly refined. The diet of the Paleolithic man was not out of meat, fruit, vegetables, eggs, seeds and nuts. It did not include in any form grains, sugar, dairy, legumes, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, salt, artificial flavoring, preservatives, pesticides or alcohol. In fact, an overwhelming body of evidence has demonstrated that dairy and grains are directly related to diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis, type 2 diabetes, Crohn’s disease, irritable bowel syndrome and cancer. If this is something you’re interested in take three weeks to transition into it. The first week cut out dairy entirely. The second week remove dairy and grains. In the third week remove grains and sugars and dairy entirely. It’s a very simple thing to do. It doesn’t cost you anything more than you’re already spending—in fact, you’ll find it will be

SPORTS Ex-Jay proud of Kelowna connections Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

Since leaving in the late 1980s to pursue a baseball career, trips back to his hometown have been few and far between for Paul Spoljaric. In Kelowna for a rare visit this week to teach at a camp hosted by the Toronto Blue Jays, the former major league pitcher was thrilled to return to familiar surroundings. “It’s incredible to be back,” said Spoljaric, 41, whose parents still live in Kelowna. “You know, everybody’s got something missing in their lives, and this is what I was missing. Coming back here and seeing the mountains again, being in this great environment, I really love it. This is truly home for me.” Spoljaric made a stop Kelowna this week to work as one of the instructors at the Blue Jays Honda Super Camp at Elks Stadium. The three-day camp for more than 120 kids also featured the likes of Hall of Famer Roberto Alomar, as well as fellow ex-Blue Jays Lloyd Moseby, Duane Ward, Rance Mulliniks and Homer Bush. Spoljaric, who resides

can make something of it, and get that opportunity to play under the big lights.” Twelve years removed from the end of his bigleague career, Spoljaric still reflects fondly on his days in the majors, and considers himself fortunate to have played as long as he did. “I got lucky, a lot of things worked out for me, I blossomed at the right time and peaked at the right time,” he said. “The opportunity was there for me to take a chance and get into the big leagues, so I can’t look back on it with anything but fond memories. And what was the highlight of Spoljaric’s major league career ? “The one that really stands out for me is my first win,” said Spoljaric, who earned his first M.L. victory with the Jays in 1996. “It was against Detroit and Jacob Brumfield scored the winning run. I remember him clearly standing on second, and him just booting around the bases like he was on fire. That was definitely one of my best memories.” Following his major league career, Spoljaric played eight seasons in the Intercounty Baseball League, an independent

Challenge spotlight: Revelatto

WARREN HENDERSON/STAFF REPORTER

BASEBALL HALL OF FAME member Roberto Alomar (right) was among several former Toronto Blue Jays players in Kelowna this week for one of the team’s summer instructional camps.

Each week during the Pacific Coast Soccer League season Capital News freelance reporter Drew Pihlainen profiles a member of the 2012 Okanagan Challenge. Today, Renan Revelatto Q: Why do you play soccer? A: That’s all we do in Brazil, we don’t have another sport. We play soccer since we’re born. Q: What do you like most about playing with the Challenge? A: The people. The guys, they’re very friendly, and because I’m from Brazil that’s pretty much my family here; they’re the only people I know in town. Q: Is this your first time in Kelowna? What are your impressions?

Renan Revelatto Position: Defender Home: Cotiporã, Brazil University team: SFU Age: 21 A: Yes. It’s a very nice town. You have the wineries and the mountains –and there’s snow on top of the mountains. It’s very different, because I spent two years in Texas, which is very flat. Q: How do people back home react when you tell them about the Okanagan Challenge? A: My family appreciates the opportunity that the Challenge gave me to play during the summer. Q: What do you miss most about home? A: The food. In the South of Brazil we have

barbecue, called “Churrasco” and I haven’t found any place here with the same style of barbecue we have down there. Q: How do you feel about Brazil hosting the 2014 World Cup? A: It’s very nice. People will get to know Brazil better. If you’re planning on going to Brazil, it should be during the World Cup. For the World Cup, they’re going to clean everything up and the country’s going to work better. Q: What’s one of your best soccer memories?

A: When I was 14, I made the city team and we went to a tournament where there were 500 other teams. We made it to the final, and there were 2000 people watching. Q: What superstitions do you have about the game? A: I try to listen to the same songs when I’m warming up. For big games, I try to wear the same clothes. Q: What does your Brazilian perspective bring to the team? A: I think the “heart,” because I’ve played soccer since I was 3 or 4, and I don’t like to lose. Sometimes I feel like Canadians or players in other countries are alright if they lose a game: “next time”, they say. But I can’t lose.

Bronze for Kelowna United U18 boys During a loss in their second game of the round robin, head coach Enzo Nanci found out just what his Kelowna United U18 boys team was made of at the B.C. B Cup soccer championship. Without the services of keeper Mike Willis due to a red card received in the opening game, United battled North Van FC tooth-and-nail to the finish before finally succumbing 3-0. Undaunted, Kelowna then rebounded to win its next two games to capture the provincial bronze medal last weekend in Aldergrove. “I really think that (loss) was the turning point for us because the guys didn’t hang their heads, they didn’t give up

and they just grew tighter as the tournament went on,” said Nanci. “They overcame adversity and rallied together.” Following the defeat to North Van Friday, Kelowna bounced back with a convincing 6-1 win over Aldergrove in the final game of the round robin on Saturday. In Sunday’s thirdplace game, in a spirited, often times chippy affair, United knocked off the Prince George Kodiaks 1-0 to secure the bronze medal. Chris Macdonnell scored the lone goal on a PK 25 minutes into the game. “It was a rough game, there were eight to 10 red cards, and our guys hung in there and got it done,” Nanci added. “The guys

really played well as a team and they played hard all weekend. We’re very happy with the bronze medal.” The United U18 boys are: Alex Beutle, Brodie Krepps, Austin Axenty, Braden Peters, Chros Macdonnell, Hayden Ward, Jesse Nanci, Jordan Powers, Keevin Lee, Kyle Kannan, Mike Willis, Quintin Torresan, Riley Carlson, Ryan Kaila, Sam Bowers, Spencer Loyd and Tanner Brown.

Okanagan A’s visit Cards

The Okanagan Athletics will be looking for a bounce-back weekend after losing three of four B.C. Premier Baseball League games to the Victoria Mariners. The A’s will be in Abbotsford for a pair of doubleheaders this Saturday and Sunday against the Cardinals. Then next week, July 18 and 19, the A’s will host the North Shore Twins. The twin bills on Wednesday and Thursday are make-up games for a series that was rained out last month at Elks Stadium. Last weekend, the A’s came out on the short end of a series for the first time this season dropping all but one game to the Mariners in Victoria. On Saturday, the teams needed 12 innings to determine a winner as Victoria emerged 10-9. Due to the length of Saturday’s game, the teams had to play three more on Sunday. In the opener, the A’s claimed an 8-7 win as Dawson Yates scored the decisive run on a Victoria error in the seventh inning. James Walker earned the win in relief to boost his record to 5-2. The Mariners came

back to win the last two games of the series 10-5 and 7-5. Yates finished the weekend with nine hits in 17 at bats to boost his team-leading batting average to .379. The A’s (28-10) are currently in third spot in the PBL. The top four teams will host a firstround playoff series.

JUNIOR A’S… The Okanagan junior A’s split four games with the Victoria Eagles in BCJPBL action. On Saturday, Trevor Mlait had four hits and three RBIs in 12-8 A’s win. Victoria rebounded in the second game for a 1510 win. On Sunday, Brandon Belbin went 7 1/3 innings for the win as the A’s got past the Eagles 5-3 in eight innings. The A’s scored twice in the extra inning, with Trevor Loftstrom and Callum Barbour delivering RBI hits. In the series finale, the Eagles posted a 9-6 win. The A’s (9-19) return to action this weekend on the road with four games against the North Shore Twins.

Pro tennis hits mark in Kelowna

Heat off to U16 B.C. fastball

Warren Henderson

The Kelowna Heat will be on Vancouver Island this weekend for the Softball B.C. U16 girls provincial championship. The Heat will play four round robin games in Duncan, two on Friday and two on Saturday. The playoffs will follow, with the final on Sunday.

STAFF REPORTER

On the same day Roger Federer won a record-tying seventh Wimbledon singles title, American Nikita Kryvonos was in the Okanagan carving out his -own little piece of tennis history. The 25-year-old from Flushing, New York claimed victory Sunday at the first ever edition of the ITP Kelowna Futures Tennis Tournament. Kryvonos, ranked 1,463rd in world prior to the tourney, boosted his prospects of one day making the ATP tour by defeating fellow American Nicolas Meister (ranked 823) 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 on a blistering hot afternoon on centre court at the Parkinson Rec Centre. The $15,000 event featured 32 singles players from eight countries, many of whom are ranked between No. 200 and No. 1,500 in the world. The Futures circuit is one of the stepping stones to the higher levels of pro competition, including the Challenger series, the ATP tour and the Grand Slams. Tournament organizer Joachim Nierfeld said the quality of tennis played throughout the tournament was excellent, culminating with a close and exciting final match between Kryvonos and Meister. “The competition and level of tennis just seemed to get better and better as the tournament went along,” said Nierfeld. “The semifinals were great and the final was even better, it was unbelievably close, and even match point took 20 shots to decide the match. It really was quality tennis.” And Kelowna tennis fans will have a chance to watch the sport’s future stars again next year. At the request of Tennis

The Kelowna girls tuned up for provincials last weekend at a tournament in Spokane. After posting a 1-2 record on Saturday, the Heat advanced to the white division playoffs for teams on the bottom half of their respective pools. In the semifinal game,

the Heat whipped the Spokane Dawgs 13-0, scoring eight times in the fifth inning. Tessa Barbour tossed a three-hit shutout. In the white division final, Kelowna scored three runs in the top of seventh to defeat the Spokane Scream 4-1. Pitcher Julia Lambert held the Scream

to the single run in seven innings of work. Offensively, Brett Needham batted .615 and scored seven runs, Hayden Craig batted .429 and scored eight runs, Shea Skarbo had seven RBIs, and Meghan McCreight and Lora Miki batted in five runs.

WARREN HENDERSON/CAPITAL NEWS

AMERICAN Nikita Kryvonos won the first ever ITP Kelowna Futures Tennis Tournament Sunday at the Parkinson Rec Centre courts. Canada and the ITF, Nierfeld has agreed to host the event again in 2013 and 2014. “Both Tennis Canada and the ITF were impressed and they want us to support this event for two more years at least,” Nierfeld said. “We might modify the site a little for next year, and make some improvements. We also hope to try and attract some even better players for next year.” In future years, Nierfeld said there is a possibility of turning the Kelowna tournament into a Challengers Tour event, the next step up the ladder from the Futures Tour. Meanwhile, in Saturday night’s men’s doubles final, the top-ranked team of Erik Chvojka of Montreal and Gregory Ouellette of Ormond Beach, Florida defeated the secondranked duo Philip Bester and Kamil Pajkowski of

KidSport Kelowna is looking to increase the number of local kids who will be taking to the fields and rinks by partnering with this year’s Valley of Champions Baseball Tournament. The Valley of Champions (VOC), set for this weekend July 13 to 15, is an annual all-star baseball tournament with over 50 teams competing aged 9 to 18 from all over the Northwest. The Umpires Committee for the VOC has asked each umpire to donate one game fee from the tournament to KidSport Kelowna, an organization that removes financial barriers that prevent kids from playing organized sport. At the tournament, in addition to over fifty teams from mosquito to midget levels playing at four baseball parks in Kelowna and West Kelowna, there will be baseball skills games and fun family activities, as well as 50-50 and raffle draws. Funds raised at the weekend tournament will help to provide financially disadvantaged kids on the Kelowna with the opportunity to take part in a season of sport and learn valuable life lessons. In 2011, the KidSport Ke-

lowna Chapter helped over 150 kids get involved in organized sport and develop healthy lifestyle habits and social skills, and they are looking to further grow that number. “People may be surprised to know the poverty level in Kelowna is similar to levels throughout the rest of BC,” said Cheryl Browne, Co-Chair of the KidSport Kelowna Chapter. “The KidSport Kelowna Chapter exists to ensure kids in our community who want to, have the opportunity to experience the power of sport”. Although KidSport is a national program, the realization of programs and funding lies in the hands of the community. KidSport BC oversees 40 Community Chapters, like KidSport Kelowna, and 260 direct volunteers who work tirelessly to provide opportunities for children all over the province to get in the game. For more information on how you can support KidSport, visit www.kidsport.ca Games will be played at Edith Gay, Lombardy, Mission Sportsfields, Upper Boucherie and Lower Boucherie fields. To volunteer email kelowna@kidsportcanada. ca or 250-469-8852.

ENTERTAINMENT Two shows, one city and a cast of excited actors Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

It’s being dubbed the Kelowna Summer Theatre Festival, Kelowna’s echo of Bard on the Beach, an outdoor theatre experience in the heart of the downtown core. And for the young actors who’ve arrived from Vancouver to perform in it, this should prove one pressure-cooker of a performance. Amid likely 30 C-plus temperatures with two scripts to learn, they’ll be switching from Golf the Musical to the play Fortune’s Fools and, as of this week’s rehearsal, they’re all pretty confident their summer will go swimmingly. “It’s intended to be accessible, fun to go out for a night of theatre and you can take anybody because anybody will like the play,” said Neal Facey, Kelowna Summer Theatre Festival artistic director. The style is called repertoire theatre. Usually in professional theatre, actors have a two to two-and-a-half week rehearsal period for a show. In repertoire theatre they are learning and rehearsing two shows in just one month and will preform them on alternating nights for the three-week run of performances. In other words, Ke-

lowna’s summer of relaxing laughs on the lawn outside the Rotary Arts Centre is no small feat. “I’m new to doing two shows at one time as well, so it was a little tricky building the schedule; but I think it’s working really well,” said Facey. “I’m really impressed with what I’ve seen so far.” Golf the Musical is the strictly humours note of the project. A vaudevillestyle, madcap revue highlighting the oddities and calamities of the sport, it jabs at everything from the unusual relationship golfers have with their failures to the seemingly appalling manner traditional golfers have excluding virtually everyone but white men from the sport. On the alternate days, the second play offers up a romantic comedy featuring a couple who is about to be married and the reluctant relationship that develops between their maid of honour and best man. “It’s the whole evolution of the marriage and what happens after the ring,” said Katey Hoffman, an actor originally from Vernon. Hoffman is now studying in Vancouver and says she enjoys a fantastic relationship with her family who manage to make every show she is in—no exceptions.

Midway through rehearsal, everyone involved seems to believe Kelowna’s big venture into the world of outdoor theatre is perfectly on track. “We’re in a really good position considering we’ve only being doing this for a week,” said Simon Mizera, a Slovakian actor based in Vancouver. He and the other two male actors are spending an afternoon studiously trying to match their feet to the female star’s voice. “It’s an intriguing challenge,” said Richmond’s Andrew Wade, noting the choreography is the most draining portion of their preparation. “Golf is about matching the choreography to the lyrics. It’s not a show that takes itself seriously,” he added. “Choreography just takes a lot of energy, not the moves, but learning them.” Casting a repertoire theatre troupe is also a high-energy affair. It means matching a set of actors to two sets of roles and a budget. The group behind this festival is the Viva Musica Society. It’s known for staging local opera, but took on this project after finding the audience for small-scale operatic performances is really not there. As such, they’ve spent a year finding financing,

JACLYN NESTMAN struts her stuff in Golf the Musical, exercising some impressive pipes in the sporty musical revue. choosing the plays, figuring out how many actors to hire and then how they can be used most effectively. For this summer, it will mean four actors take the stage at the same time and the extra actor will behind the scenes. One play requires three men and one woman and the other requires two men and two women.

As tricky as the logistics may be, it’s a great opportunity for the young actors involved to secure almost two months of employment. “Since I graduated, I don’t think I’ve had more than three days without a rehearsal or a performance of some kind,” said Wade, who finished up at UBC Vancouver last year. He’s worked as a pir-

ate, at Science World and on a string of plays. “If you’re a guy who can dance and sing you can get in shows,” he said. “Whether or not those shows pay money is a different thing.” Shows can run as cooperatives in which the actors split the proceeds. They are often voluntary and sometimes they just go belly-up.

But if you’re willing to work hard, down the line, it can mean the best job in the world—and you’ll likely see a few things along the way. For cast member Alen Dominguez, securing work means having good skills, but also a mandatory ability to travel. “If you’re not willing to travel, you’re not going to get work,” he said. “It’s that simple.” The young actors search the Vancouver Public Library’s casting call listing—it’s ostensibly to promote their play collection but appears to have become the go-to audition listing in the city— and online musical databases. They subscribe to more theatre newsletters than they could ever read and spend at least 15 minutes a day scanning the want ads for work. “The life of an actor is one of doing job interviews every week and when you finally get the job, it’s fantastic, but it only lasts about a month,” Wade said. Kelowna gets it’s near month of enjoying their efforts at the end of this month. Kelowna Summer Theatre Festival runs July 19 to Aug. 12. Tickets are $25 from Select Your Tickets, www.selectyourtickets.com or by calling 250-717-5304.

Sparks of creativity all in the family at Little Creek Gardens FOOD & WINE TRAILS

Jennifer Schell Twin daughters Amber and Kerisa Denison are testament to that— both girls have spread their artistic wings. Metal artist Amber Denison’s inspiration manifested during the stressful final year-end as-

signment in the visual arts program at The University of British Columbia. Her professor introduced her to a metal cutting torch and that sparked her interest. With no budget left for materials she began foraging on the family farm for a metal canvas and discovered the left over sunflower oil barrels used in making her mom’s salad dressing. In the end, the combination of farm girl’s thrift, a family ecofriendly recycling philosophy and an eye for

seeing beauty in discarded metals, she transformed the barrels into stunning lanterns and received raves on her final assignment. Now enthralled with this exciting new art genre, Amber was soon introduced to a plasma cutter that eventually became her choice of tools. This cutter uses compressed air blown at high speed out of a nozzle; at the same time electricity arcs from the nozzle to the surface being cut, turning a portion of the pushed

air into plasma. The result is clean lines and much more control in her precise craft. Amber loves to create large pieces and will be headed for the gallery world soon. Her passion is evident in her work. “I love the look of metal. It’s rough but still earthy. It’s challenging too. My art is about creating beauty from something other people see as garbage.” She virtually lights up when explaining her visits to the Knox Mountain

Other movie companies tried with varying results: The most memorable were the likes of Charlotteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Web, Fern Gully: The Last Rain Forest, Anastasia, An American Tail, The Land Before Time and The Iron Giant, but none were as consistent as the House of Mickey. However, that all changed with the advent of computer generated imagery (CGI) animation. Suddenly there were other

Both DreamWorks (Madagascar 3) and Disney (Brave) have had their time in the spotlight this summer and this weekend, it is 20th Century Foxâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s turn as they release the third sequel to their tent pole animated franchise: Ice Age: Continental Drift. Manny the mam-

moth, Diego the sabre tooth tiger, Sid the sloth and Scrat the squirrel are back, embarking on another adventure when their continent is set adrift as a result of Scratâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s infernal pursuit of the cursed acorn. Using an iceberg as a ship, they encounter sea creatures and battle pirates as they explore a new world. The voices of Ray Romano, Denis Leary, John Leguizamo, Queen Latifah are back as well as Jennifer Lopez, Seann William Scott, Patrick Stewart and Wanda Sykes.

While Ice Age: Continental Drift may not match the business of either Brave or Madagascar 3, it will still do very respectable business. Last week, I missed that Moonrise Kingdom opened at the Paramount Theatre. It is the new critically acclaimed comedy-drama from Wes Anderson, whose previous efforts include Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums and The Darjeeling Limited. Set in 1965, Moonrise Kingdom is the story of a pair of 12-year-old misfits who flee their summer

residences in New England and run away into the wilderness. As various authorities try to find them, a violent storm is brewing off-shore and the peaceful island community is turned upside down in more ways than anyone can handle. Anderson has assembled another all-star cast playing eclectic characters including Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton, Harvey Keitel and Jason Schwartzman. What is interesting is that Anderson co-wrote it with Roman Coppola, son of Francis Ford Coppola. And at the Landmark Encore Capitol Theatre, recent hits like Men in Black 3, Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, Seeking a Friend for the End of the World and others can still been seen for less. Go to www.landmarkcinemas.com and click on Encore, West Kelowna to find out their entire schedule.

THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN

BEHIND THE SCREEN

onsidering that I had been bitten by a variety of bugs during the past week, I thought it fitting that I should take myself to see The Amazing Spider-Man. It’s state of the art, with Star Trek lights and superior, dramatic sound that envelops the audience—and that’s just the theatre. Spider-Man was in 3D at the newly opened Landmark Cinema Xtreme on the Westside. So I took my comfy,

Susan Steen pre-assigned seat already knowing the well-told Spider-Man story and, frankly, I felt that while there might be an upgrade in special effects, there would be no big surprises. While the show started out a bit slow, it picked up and provided some in-

teresting twists and plot turns, while keeping with the basic beginnings of the saga of which we are

fairly familiar. Ah, remember when a web site was just the location of a spider’s nest? Well, those days are gone. It’s in the second half of the film that most vestiges of the original Spider-Man, who fights to rid the city of small time hoods, changes and gives us a very new twist on the traditional—and yes, the special effects as well as the make-up are incredible. There are surprises in the casting as well. We know that Andrew Garfield was picked to play Peter Parker (Spider-Man). Garfield was born in the U.S. and was brought up in England. Emma Stone plays the love-interest Gwen, but here the cast gets interesting: Dennis Leary is Gwen’s policeman-father, Martin Sheen is Peter’s Uncle Ben, Sally Fields is Aunt May and Welshborn Rhys Ifans of Notting Hill fame is Dr. Curt Connors. Only Garfield as Spider-Man has a really big part, but they all seem to add, not take away, from the show and one does forget their collective celebrity—good acting all around. I liked it, even though, strangely, my bug bites did seem to be more itchy during the two hours of watching spiders and other critters, but that could have been my imagination. And so far I haven’t seen any signs of having an affinity to flies, so I guess I’m OK. A good line: “Secrets have a cost. They’re not ever free.” So if you’re up for a little MARVEL Comic Book nostalgia go bond with your teenager and see The Amazing Spiderman. It’s entertaining and action packed and watching Garfield fly around in his skin tight suit is not too shabby either. I give this Spider-Man 3 1/2 reels.

BLOOMING AFFAIR…Flowers, flowers everywhere at the annual Kelowna Garden Club Flower Show held last Saturday at the Guisachan Gardens.

Moonlight Movie nights light up local parks Throughout the months of July and August, Interior Savings and the Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs will light up city and community parks with a giant inflatable movie screen showing a classic family favourite movie, with fun activities for the family before the show starts. Similar to the classic drive-in experience but without the cars or the concrete, local residents are invited to bring their lawn chairs and blankets and enjoy a movie under the stars.

There is no charge to attend the event, but a donation of $3 per person or $10 for a family of four is encouraged with all proceeds benefiting the Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs. “We strive to create a safe, supportive environment where children and youth experience new opportunities, overcome barriers, build positive relationships and develop confidence and skills for life,” said Craig Monley, CEO of Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs. “The Interior Sav-

ings Moonlight Movie Night is a unique event for our community that will help us raise funds to provide programs to support healthy physical, educational and social development for over 6,000 young people and families throughout the Okanagan Valley.” As part of a commitment to building healthy communities, Interior Savings’ Moonlight Movie Tour will touch down in 14 B.C. Interior communities this summer and will feature three individual movie nights in both

Kamloops and Kelowna. “With the Interior Savings Moonlight Movie Tour, we are able to provide a family-friendly, free night out while raising money and awareness for youth programs in the community,” said Kathy Conway, CEO for Interior Savings Credit Union. “The tour attracts over 10,000 people each year and, to date, has raised over $50,000 for programs that help youth develop leadership and life skills.” To enjoy a unique cinema experience under

the stars, bring your lawn chairs and blankets. Concession, pre-show entertainment and kids games start at 7 p.m.; show starts at dusk. Movie nights in the Central Okanagan region will be: July 18—Shrek at Kelowna’s City Park Aug 20—Shrek at Lake Country’s Beasley Park Aug 21—Honey I Shrunk the Kids in West Kelowna at Webber Road Community Centre Aug 22—E.T. at Kelowna’s City Park.

Kelowna road closures for Midsummer 8K run About 185 participants are expected to take part in the annual Midsummer 8K Running Race this Sunday. The race starts and ends at the Mission Recreation Park on Lexington Road. Runners will be on the road between approximately 8 and 9:30 a.m. To accommodate the race, the Mission Recreation Park Ring Road will be closed intermittently from 7:30 to 10 a.m. and Lexington Road (between Ring Road and Gordon Drive) will be closed from 7:45 to 8:15 a.m. to allow for the race start to take place. Participants will be racing along Lexington Drive, Lakeshore Road, McClure Road and Gordon Drive. Although runners will stay close to road shoul-

ders for the remainder of the route, they will be given right of way through

intersections during the race. While these roads re-

main open, traffic delays are to be expected. Motorists are asked to yield

to participants and to obey traffic control personnel along the route.

GEAR UP TO END My Mom has MS and motivated me to join the MS Bike Tour. It is a tradition I look forward to every year.

Ankle joint a myriad of bones, ligaments and tendons T he ankle joint is an intricate network of bones, ligaments, tendons and muscles. It is built for both strength and flexibility, as it needs to bear the weight of our body while also having the flexibility for the various surfaces we walk on. The ankle joint can be prone to various types of injury and pain. Ankle pain may be experienced on the inside or outside of the ankle or along the back where the Achilles tendon connects the muscles in the lower leg to the heel bone. Most ankle pain results from a sprain, which occurs when the ankle

NEEDLE NOTES

James Kaufman rolls over the foot, causing a ligament to stretch or tear. Sprains are often sports-related but they can also occur when walking on an uneven surface of from taking a misstep. Ankle pain can also be caused by injury to any of the bones, ligaments or tendons in the ankle. The most common causes of ankle pain include Achilles tendin-

itis, sprains, strains, stress fractures, broken ankle or foot bone, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and gout. Any kind of ankle injury will also affect our gait or walking pattern and in a chain reaction, the knee joint, hip joint, SI joint and spine become involved and so ankle pain can have far-reaching consequences. Acupuncture is a great option for problems of the ankle and can effectively treat ankle pain of all types. All of the leg meridians can have an influence on muskulo-skeletal disorders of the ankle, and because the toes are the starting point of the

body’s meridians, if there is an imbalance or obstruction in any meridian, often it will cause symptoms of pain or muscle imbalance in the foot or ankle. As with other pain or injuries in the body, Chinese medicine usually diagnoses ankle pain and injury as a blockage or lack of proper circulation of blood and qi-energy in the affected area. These blockages lead to pain, weakness, and an inability for the ankle to heal properly because it cannot receive the proper nourishment to do so. Acupuncture helps to remove blockages, increase blood circulation and energy, and also re-

solve any imbalances in the meridians that may be causing a weakness in the ankle and leaving it prone to injury or strain. In the early stages of an injury, acupuncture can help to remove blockages and promote blood flow to the ankle, as well as relieve swelling and pain. With injuries in the middle stage of healing,

acupuncture can help alleviate swelling and pain in the ankle, and promote healing of the tissues and bones. In later stages of injury, where the ankle has become rigid and weak, acupuncture can help to relax the tendons and remove blockages to regain movement and strength in the ankle.

Traffic fine ticket revenue helps municipal bottom lines Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR

ing with acute or chronic ankle problems, acupuncture can help to boost the body’s healing so that we can regain our health and return to our regular day to day functioning. James Kaufman is a registered acupuncturist at Okanagan Acupuncture Centre, 1625 Ellis St., in Kelowna.

Speeding drivers are helping fatten the coffers of local municipalities. The province has announced its latest grants for Kelowna, Lake Country and West Kelowna from the Traffic Fine Revenue Sharing program. While the municipalities already knew how much they would be getting for this year, 2013 and 2014 thanks to a change is the funding program by Victoria last year, the latest installments include $1.2 million for Kelowna, which will get a total of $1.9 million this year; $359,737 (including $285,596 from the province’s Small Community and Regional District Grant program) for Lake Country, for a total of $596 million from both programs this year; and $68,732 for West Kelowna, part of a total for 2012 of $265,000. The annual totals include partial prepayment amounts coming for in 2013, said Lake Country chief financial officer Stephen Banmen. He said while the change to the threeyear guaranteed amount does not make a difference budget wise, it does give the municipalities “certainty” when it come to financial planning. “It mean’s there is no guessing,” he said. Unlike Kelowna and West Kelowna, Lake Country uses the money from the traffic fine revenue grants to help pay the

total cost of policing in the municipality. If the amount was to drop, a tax increase would be needed to make up the difference if the municipality wanted to maintain the same level of service. Both Kelowna and West Kelowna use the traffic fine revenue grant money to pay for specified aspects of policing, such as crime prevention in Kelowna and the cost of an RCMP liaison officer and auxiliary officers to conduct traffic enforcement in West Kelowna. In B.C., municipalities with more than 5,000 residents pay 90 per cent of policing costs, with the province picking up the other 10 per cent. As a result, policing is often one of the biggest single costs in their budgets. In addition the money for the municipalities, the Central Okanagan Regional District will receive $102,040 from the province’s Strategic Community Investment Fund, which allows communities to invest in their own priority projects. The Small Community and Regional District Grants assist local governments in providing basic services, while the traffic fine revenues help municipalities pay for police enforcement costs. The grants come from ticket fines and court-imposed fines on violation tickets, and the amount of money a municipality receives is based on its contribution to total municipal policing costs. awaters@kelownacapnews.com

Scott said Gorman Bros. intends to retain jobs as well as maintain wages and working conditions. “That’s the intent. We’re still looking everything over, but we don’t see any reason to change.” He said the company will consider further investment if necessary to make the plant more efficient. Federated’s Forest Products Division has operated in Canoe since 1945. The manufacturing facilities have a capacity of approximately 150 million board feet of lumber and 150 million square feet of plywood annually. The sawmill shut down on Dec.

Warriors adopt West Kelowna team identity

DOUG FARROW/CONTRIBUTOR

NEW HOCKEY gear and a new team jersey and name for the junior A hockey club, changed from Westside Warriors to West Kelowna Warriors, were revealed Tuesday outside Royal LePage Place by the Kraft Hockeyville campaign organizers. Andrew Deans (left), co-chair of the Hockeyville effort and director of operations for the now West Kelowna Warriors, holds up a pair of new hockey skates, part of the 50 sets of new equipment coming here out of the Hockeyville contest, while Rylan Ferster, general manager and head coach of the Warriors, shows off the team’s new jersey for the 2012-13 season.

As a result of the enthusiasm for West Kelowna’s campaign to win the Kraft Hockeyville title, the local junior hockey team has opted for a name change that better reflects its home community. Beginning this season, the Westside Warriors of the BCHL will now be known as the West Kelowna Warriors. “After being involved in Hockeyville and seeing how powerful our community spirit is in West Kelowna, we, as the Warriors, realized just how important it is to be this community’s home team. And that got us to thinking that we’re one of the only sports teams in the entire country that doesn’t carry the official name of the town or community we represent,” said Andrew Deans, the Hockeyville campaign co-chair with Adam Less and director of operations for the hockey club. Deans added that Warriors owners, Mark and Janelle Cheyne were a driving force behind the community’s Hockeyville campaign this year. “We’re proud of our community and we want to show that to every other community we compete against,” Deans said. He added the name change has also been approved by the BCHL. Meanwhile, the premature leak by Canada News Wire of the Hockeyville contest winner in advance of the official announcement has resulted in the donation of 50 sets of hockey equipment to West Kelowna’s local youth programs, in a joint initiative worked out between CNW and the Kraft Hockeyville partners. The intent is to help make minor hockey more widely accessible to youth who might not otherwise be able to afford to play. Twenty-five sets of that equipment were presented Tuesday to Julie Fraser, director of Westside minor hockey divisions.

Winning a lawsuit doesn’t mean compromising your values

owe both a debt of gratitude as well as an apology arising out of my last week’s column. I had tried to make a key point in that column—being honest and trying your best are the foundations for how you should conduct yourself when pursuing fair compensation for an injury. I was seeking to clear up a misconception that some people seem to have, that we personal in-

ACHIEVING JUSTICE

Paul Hergott jury lawyers advise our clients on “smoke and mirrors trickery” or “tactical wizardry.” Unfortunately, my attempt to make that point was a failure.

My debt of gratitude is owed to the reader who filled me in on how poorly I presented it. The reader—her first name is Melissa—came to the defense of those who hire lawyers to assist with injury claims. If all it took was being honest, she said, there would be no need for personal injury lawyers. She said that people hire personal injury lawyers to protect them because they don’t know

the ins and outs of all the laws. Melissa, and no doubt many others, apparently understood me to say that if you are honest and try your best, a personal injury lawyer is unnecessary. She also understood me to be making the assumption that people are trying to screw the system. I have struggled over the years to speak out directly against such misunderstandings.

It is horribly ironic that I have directly contributed to them with one of my columns. My apology is owed to all of those who I have hurt by how poorly I presented my point. It is bad enough to be victimized by crash injuries. The jaded perception that many have of those looking for nothing more than fair compensation is another level of victimization.

to unrepresented victims, even within twothirds of fair, personal injury lawyers would be out of work. The reality is that settlement offers to unrepresented victims are regularly small fractions of fair. Those realities don’t take away from the key advice those seeking fair compensation for an injury need to hear about how they should conduct themselves. There is no trickery or smoke and mirrors. Being honest and trying your best are key. When I give that advice directly to my clients, their reaction is regularly one of relief. They don’t want to have to compromise their values to achieve a fair result. They don’t have to. This column is intended to provide general information about injury claims. It is not a substitute for retaining a lawyer to provide legal advice specifically pertaining to your case. Paul Hergott is a lawyer at Hergott Law in West Kelowna. paul@hlaw.ca

I inadvertently contributed to that jaded perception. Yes, the unfortunate reality is that good, honest people must hire lawyers even though all they are looking for is fairness in the resolution of their personal injury claims. The reality is that a significant role of a personal injury lawyer is to protect the client against insurance company tactics. The reality is that a personal injury lawyer is required to put together the evidence necessary to either force the insurance company to come to the table with a fair settlement offer or prove the case at a trial. I say “unfortunate reality” because it truly is unfortunate that a significant portion of the fair compensation being sought, often one-third, must be paid as fees to a lawyer. That leaves the injured victim with less than full, fair compensation. If the insurance company stepped up to the plate with anything close to fair settlement offers

Central Okanagan residents can now begin to register for the 17th annual Parkinson SuperWalk which will take place this September. Participants can register as an individual or a team by visiting www.parkinson.bc.ca. In Kelowna, SuperWalk is scheduled for Sept. 8, starting at 10 a.m. from Waterfront Park. Proceeds from SuperWalk go to research and support services provided by Parkinson Society British Columbia (PSBC). For families living with Parkinson’s disease, the walk represents not only the opportunity to raise funds for research, education and support, it also gives walkers the chance to meet other people who are living with the effects of this devastating condition.

West Kelowna council learned this week that transportation and development issues are at the forefront of concerns among local residents. That was the feedback from a survey done by the district in November 2011, where 1,000 surveys were mailed out to randomly selected West Kelowna residents and some 300 were returned. The number of surveys returned was sufficient to calculate scientifically accurate results. The survey’s primary objective is to determine how the taxpayers of West Kelowna evaluate the services that are provided and to identify services that are desired but not currently provided. In terms of issues cited by the respondents, topping the list of concerns was road maintenance (97.18%), roads (96.13%), sidewalks (93.31%), growth and development planning (91.90%), illegal dumping, cleaning program (91.90%), and economic development (91.20%). As a comparison, the 2010 citizens’ survey listed the top seven concerns as road maintenance, roads, snow control, noise control, sidewalks, illegal dumping/cleaning program and dedicated bicycle lane. In terms of emphasis, the survey revealed the following categories were considered less of a priority—yard waste/bulky item collection, sewage treatment collection, swimming pool (Johnson Bentley), public library, hockey arenas (Jim Lind and Royal LePage), playgrounds, sports fields (baseball/softball/soccer) and District of West Kelowna website services. The accompanying chart shows some of the survey responses to specific questions.

MARGARETA (BRUCKS) WEDEL A memorial service will be held at 2:00pm on Saturday, July 14th, 2012 in the Hope Centre (Willow Park Church) for Margareta Wedel, who passed away March 13th, 2012.

Margaret Janice Patrick Feb. 28, 1917 - June 16, 2012

Janice Patrick, the ¿rst born child of Thomas and Isabelle McDowell, who were both talented musicians, arrived on February 28, 1917 in Vernon, B.C. She had three siblings, Elaine, Stuart and Kenneth. At the age of ¿ve she was a musical child prodigy and performed concerts at the MacDonald and Palliser Hotels in Edmonton and Calgary, Alberta. She continued studying music and performing extensively until she married George Patrick in 1941 and moved to Revelstoke, B.C. where after George ¿nished his work with the CPR they operated a Credit Bureau. With music being a part of her soul, she soon taught piano and voice and mentored many excellent musicians who went on to perform and enjoy music with the same passion Janice had for musical excellence. She loved her music. Her life was rich in friends and family and her trips on the Greyhound to Vernon and Kelowna to share her musical talents as a teacher were legendary. A true celebration of Janice’s love of music and of the full life she lived will be held at St. Peter’s Anglican Church in Revelstoke, B.C. on Saturday, July 28 at 2:00 p.m. Former students who wish to perform are welcome to do so as a variety of musical selections and stories of those who wish to honor Janice in this way are encouraged. Please contact Gary Sulz of Brandon Bowers Funeral Home at 250-837-2029 if you wish to be a part of the musical and/or spoken gifts to the memory of Janice with your performance or words of remembrance. Messages of condolence may be sent to the family by visiting Janice’s obituary notice at www.brandonbowersfuneralhome.com. Cremation arrangements are in the care of Brandon Bowers Funeral Home, Revelstoke.
