One man is in hospital in serious condition and another in police custody after a stabbing at a Sahali apartment in the early-morning hours of Monday, Oct. 15. Kamloops RCMP Staff Sgt. Grant Learned said Mounties were called to the emergency room at Royal Inland Hospital at about 12:30 a.m. X See SUSPECT A5

This spectacular four-vehicle accident on West Victoria Street, near Overlanders Bridge, sent three people to Royal Inland Hospital. Andrea Klassen/KTW

Three people were taken to Royal Inland Hospital after a head-on collision involving four vehicles in downtown Kamloops on Monday, Oct. 15. Emergency crews were called to the 200-block of West Victoria Street — near Overlanders Bridge — just after 1 p.m. after a vehicle apparently crossed the centre line and struck an oncoming car. The collision is believed to have taken place in the eastbound lanes. A witness who works in the area but did not want his name published said he heard the crash, went outside and saw a man lying on the pavement. “He looked to be in pretty rough shape,” he said. “He was bleeding quite a bit.” Kamloops RCMP Staff Sgt. Grant

Learned said of the three people taken to hospital, one is believed to have been suffering a serious head injury. “But, the nature of the head injury was not as serious as first thought,” he said. Police had traffic closed on West Victoria Street for two-and-a-half hours following the collision. The crash took place within feet of the spot where 36-year-old Leah Cardinal was killed in a head-on collision on Nov. 3, 2009. Police later determined Cardinal’s vehicle had crossed the centre line after coming down the ramp from the Overlanders Bridge. The investigation into this week’s crash is ongoing. Learned said all three injured people were expected to have been released from hospital within hours of the collision.

Pro-life banner provokes complaint By Andrea Klassen

The banner that prompted a complaint to the City of Kamloops. Andrea Klassen/KTW

STAFF REPORTER andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

A pro-life banner flying on city-owned poles is meeting opposition from local and provincial atheist groups. The banner is hung on behalf of the Kamloops Pro-Life Society and includes silhouettes of a baby, young girl and elderly woman standing under a tree and includes the phrases: “One life can make a difference” and “Protect human life week.” It went up downtown on Tuesday, October 2, and will hang on the North Shore over Tranquille Road until Oct. 16. Bill Ligertwood of the Kamloops Centre for Rational Thought sees the banner as a clear violation of city policy on street banners, which states they may not “promote political parties or points of view, religious points of view, commercial ventures, controversial issues or other content that contradicts the human rights codes.” The B.C. Humanists Association has also spoken out against the banner. “I’m not sure why it even got approved. In my view, it shouldn’t have been approved,” Ligertwood said. A photo of the banner has generated plenty of chatter and complaints on the centre’s Facebook page — and Ligertwood said he has written to council, asking that the banner be taken down. Mayor Peter Milobar, however, told KTW the banner was vetted by city lawyers and the city doesn’t have grounds to remove it. “Essentially, this banner — the way it’s worded, the way it’s structured — it was their [lawyers’] opinion that it would not be in contravention of our policy that we could enforce,” he said. Milobar said the banner has flown from city poles every year since 2009 without generating complaints and was up for five days this year before the city received any messages of concern. He said complaints about the banner were taken seriously, but “people still have a fun-

damental right to voice an opinion.” Ligertwood isn’t satisfied with that argument. “Our position is that, no matter what the language is, the organization that’s putting it up there is what should count, not necessarily what’s on the banner,” he said. “If a white-supremacist group puts up a nice banner that doesn’t say what they really are, are you going to put it up anyway?” Tonia Howell, secretary for the Kamloops Pro-Life Society, told KTW in an email that her group’s constitution doesn’t mention religion. While she admits some of the group’s members are against abortion and euthanasia

because of religious convictions, she said the group frames the issue as one of human rights. “The message on our banner is a positive one emphasizing the value of every human life and the unique contribution that each of us can make to society,” she said. “It is no more controversial than a banner that would advocate for a disadvantaged group such as those with Down Syndrome — not all of society sees these people as worthy of life.” Howell said the banner has actually hung in the city for eight years, noting this is the first time the group has heard complaints. But, she said, the group has a right to voice its views even if

they aren’t universally accepted. “We of pro-life persuasion pay city taxes, as do those who are opposed,” she said. “If the Kamloops Centre for Rational Thought wishes to have a banner displayed, their payment of tax dollars should permit them to do so.” In August, Kelowna city council decided to stop flying courtesy flags at its city hall rather than fly a pro-life flag. Milobar said if the city wanted to keep this banner off its poles, it would have to follow a similar course of action. And, he added, he is comfortable leaving the city’s policy as it is. “From my perspective, it doesn’t threaten me,” he said. “I don’t agree with their position by any means but, at the same time, that banner is not going to make me change my opinion, either.”

Enrolment higher than projected By Tim Petruk STAFF REPORTER

Enrolment in the KamloopsThompson school district is higher than projected — and that’s a good thing, according to assistant superintendent Karl deBruijn. “We had 100 more kindergarten students than projected,” he said. “That’s good news because when they come in on the kindergarten end, that means you’re going to have them for a few years.” The overall numbers are down slightly — 13,591 this year compared to 13,648 in 2011-2012 — but district

officials aren’t worried. “It’s not nearly as far as we’ve been down before,” deBruijn said. “We’re seeing the end of the decline and our enrolment will now stabilize.” Numbers aren’t expected to rise any time soon, though. SD73 has 1,300 Grade 12 students this year, compared to just 1,000 kindergarteners. “That discrepancy is going to move through the system,” deBruijn said, noting the numbers also fluctuate with local economic activity. Specifically, he said, NewGold has created a bump in enrolment numbers. “A mine or a business like

If Kamloops-Thompson school district officials get their way, the Tournament Capital might be getting a new high school sooner than later. Assistant superintendent Karl deBruijn said South Kamloops secondary is old, out-dated and in need of a much more than renovations. “Ideally, the school would be replaced,” he told KTW. “It would be a tear-down.” Built in 1952, what is now South Kam used to be Kam High. The building itself has undergone countless renovations over the years, deBruijn said, but the time for a teardown is likely approaching. “I went there,” he said. “And, it was old when I went there.” The structure isn’t in danger of falling apart, deBruijn said, crediting the district’s maintenance department. But, there are a number of issues that renovations won’t fix. “These old buildings, they were not designed to meet the needs of modern education,” deBruijn said, noting South Kam’s electrical capacity is routinely exceeded. “It’s a priority because it’s old.” South Kam vice-principal Derek Wales said the building is not suited to be a

modern-day high school. “They [district maintenance staff] have kept it up, but I think at some point you have to go to the next generation of building,” he said. “It’s definitely not falling apart but, in terms of the new technology, it’s just not there.” DeBruijn compared South Kam to South Okanagan secondary, which was built in the same era and designed by the same architect. It’s in the process of being completely replaced — but that wasn’t always the plan. The 60-year-old high school in Oliver was half-renovated and half-rebuilt before being ravaged by fire last year. “The old school burned to the ground and we saved the new portion,” said Mitch Van Aller, director of facilities for the OkanaganSimilkameen school district. Now, Van Aller said, a contract has been awarded to a construction company to rebuild the burned-down portion. Though apparently on the wish list of district officials, funding for a new South Kam is nowhere to be seen on SD73’s five-year capital plan. There is, however, a $12.4-million request for a new gymnasium at the school, replacing a facility described as “inadequate” by Wales. “In a capital plan, you have to be realistic,” deBruijn said. “If we were given the

opportunity to do the gymnasium expansion, that would help us immediately. That would be much quicker than trying to get a rebuild of the entire school.” It’s not just South Kam, either. DeBruijn said the district would also like to replace elementary schools Kay Bingham and A.E. Perry — both built around the same time as South Kam. “They’re getting pretty old as well,” he said. “And, again, they were designed in an era that didn’t take today’s technology into account.” South Kam’s aging building is also expected to face increased strain in coming years as Beattie students are expected to take over the John Peterson building they have been sharing with the high school. The district is asking for $1.6 million for upgrades to John Peterson’s campus. “It’s for renovations just to make it more suitable to the arts school,” deBruijn said. “Things like a dance studio and other kind of performing-arts features.” According to Wales, that will leave South Kam looking for more space. “We’ll need more classrooms,” he said, and office space, a shop, things like that.” The Kamloops-Thompson school district’s five-year capital plan request was slated to go to the board for approval on Monday, Oct. 15, after KTW press deadline.

enrolment is funding, so we use the numbers for quite a bit.” As for class sizes in SD73 schools, deBruijn said nothing’s out of the ordinary. All of the district’s elementary class sizes are at or below capacity, and a handful of classes in area high schools are above. “The classes are music, band and phys-ed,” deBruijn said, adding there are a few nonelectives with 31 students — one over the limit of 30. “The teachers in those circumstances, they’re thrilled there’s that many [students]. “All of the classes, in our opinion, are good for learning.”

that brings in solid, well-paying jobs,” he said. “That brings in families. “When TRU brought Open Learning here, we saw a blip in enrolment. When IHA brought in their psychiatric facilities, we saw an increase in enrolment. “And, when things shut down, that has a real detrimental effect on schools in those communities.” DeBruijn said stability in enrolment figures means stability in funding. “We use these numbers to predict the number of employees we need, the facilities plans,” he said. “And, directly related to

To be a HERO for a day By Tim Petruk STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

It’s a crisp October morning in Kamloops and the firemen have all gathered at their training centre off McGill Road, west of Thompson Rivers University. Four strapping firefighters stand next to a bright red fire engine sipping on Tim Hortons coffee. Then, from behind one of their waists emerges the white helmet of their boss — the chief. He stands less than five feet tall and his Tim Hortons cup is small and filled with hot chocolate but, make no mistake — Mason Daneliuk is in charge. As the crews perform an exercise requiring them to douse a car fire, Mason, 10, takes the bull by the horns. “Get it!” he yells, pointing at the flames. “Put out the fire!” They do, thankfully, before the chief had to step in himself. Mason was Kamloops Fire Rescue’s Fire Chief for a Day on Friday, Oct. 12, having won the experience through a random draw.

The day began in the morning, when firefighters showed up at Bert Edwards science and technology school — where Mason is a fifth-grade student. Mason was running on fumes for his big day, but you wouldn’t have known it by watching him call the shots. Having learned the previous day he’d be given a one-day term as KFR chief, Mason said he was wired all night. “True story,” he said. “I barely slept at all.” And, Mason added, the experience lived up to his expectations. “I just love being trained to save lives, to be a hero — all that,” he said. “I love the action.” KFR Capt. Sheldon Guertin said the Fire Chief for a Day program, in its 28th year, is as beneficial for firefighters as it is for the children who take part. “The benefit for us is we get a lot of kids expressing interest in fire safety and educated about fire safety,” he said. “It’s a good way for them to hang out with us, get to know us and learn about fire safety.”

“So there you have the unvarnished truth. My hat is permanently off to the Strauss Herb Company.” Dear Strauss Herb Company, In 2005 my husband suffered a colossal heart attack that went on for 1 ½ hours. His heart was oversized and after the attack was sloppy and a heart transplant was spoken of. 25% of his heart died off. So he had the usual; a 6 bypass operation and 2 angioplasties thrown in for good measure. After 2 weeks he was discharged and I brought home a barely living corpse. Month after month went by with no great improvement and at 8 months, he suffered severe heart failure, requiring hospitalization to remove the Àuids. His legs swelled to the size of elephant’s legs. He looked miserable and felt life had nothing more to offer him than a slow excruciating death. His legs were ice cold to the knees as well. It was at this time a friend came to the rescue. She sized up the situation and showed me this miracle. I went out the next day a bought a bottle of Heartdrops. I marked on the calendar when we started and lo and behold, day 14 was THE day of improvement! His legs were warm!!!! His circulation was back! We literally danced around the kitchen. Willi has been taking this wonderful product 4 years now. They wanted to operate again and give him a de¿brillator and this product regulated the beat. The amount of energy this product has given him is stupendous. He works daily in the garage, plying his hobby, sausage making. He works in the garden, cuts the grass, moves heavy object around… I can’t say enough about this product. Over time, we threw away 7 prescription medications that did nothing for him but made things worse. Today he takes 1 pill a day to slow down the heart and his good health comes from Strauss Heartdrops®! I’m not stupid either, I take them everyday to PREVENT these problems. I tell everyone who will stand still about this miracle. I ¿nd it strange how many people suspiciously eye this harmless product and refuse even to consider taking it. And yet they swallow everything the doctor writes prescriptions for without batting an eyelid and continue receiving more and more doctor advised poisons and keep becoming more sick but they never get the message. Oh yes, Willi is 70 years old. So there you have the unvarnished truth. My hat is permanently off to the Strauss Company.

Fantastic! Now you can drive us to the Blazers game!

Free Fire’s cause probed Investigators are scouring the scorched slopes of a downtown Kamloops park, trying to determine what sparked a five-hectare brush fire on Sunday, Oct. 14. Kamloops Fire Rescue Capt. Sheldon Guertin said crews were called to the east side of Peterson Creek Park at about 2:30 p.m. to battle the blaze, which began

Suspect drove to RIH X From A1

A 19-year-old woman arrived at RIH with her 25-year-old boyfriend, who was bleeding heavily and who collapsed in the hospital entrance. The victim had been stabbed in the neck at an apartment on Whiteshield Crescent, then dropped off by another man in a Ford Explorer. Learned said police found the SUV parked a short distance away. The driver was arrested on Columbia Street. Police believe he stabbed the victim — described by Learned as “an acquaintance” — before driving him to the hospital. The 25-year-old suspect could face a charge of aggravated assault, Learned said, depending on what police find while executing a search warrant at the apartment. Learned said the victim is from Pritchard and the suspect lives Kamloops — and both are known to police.

prior to its containment. Crews were also aided by a bucket-equipped helicopter dropping water on the blaze. The fire was contained by about 7 p.m. Guertin said four firefighters stayed on the scene overnight after the blaze and crews were back in Peterson Creek

Anyone making a food donation was offered a free fencing lesson. Jessie Paustian, a member of the Thompson Rivers University Wolfpack cross-country team (center, wearing team jacket), and teammate Alannah Stewart, (in coral sweater with purse) were among those donating and practising their forward lunge.

Suicide of bullied teen hits home By Tim Petruk STAFF REPORTER

The suicide of a bullied Lower Mainland teen this week that has made headlines across North America has hit very close to home for

This screenshot from Amanda Todd’s YouTube video illustrates the teen’s struggle with being bullied.

one Thompson Rivers University student. Amanda Todd, a 15-year-old Grade 10 student from Coquitlam, killed herself on Oct. 10, weeks after posting a video on YouTube recounting her struggles with

bullies and self-harm. First-year TRU arts student Rebecca Mole, who is also on the WolfPack cheerleading team, said she mentored Todd in 2009 at a high-level Vancouver cheerleading gym. The 19-year-old told KTW she found out through Facebook about Todd’s death. “She was so sweet,” she said. “She was quiet, but one of those people who had a smile on her face and was excited to do new things and learn new things. “It’s hard to know now what she was going through. She was one of those girls who might not have been the loudest, but she was one of the sweetest girls I’ve met.”

Mole said she expects her former gym, Vancouver AllStars, to set up some sort of tribute to Todd. Mounties in the

Lower Mainland, meanwhile, have said they are investigating the circumstances leading to the teen’s death.

Very few have “it” — but what is “it” that they have?

IKE HIS FATHER BEFORE HIM, JUSTIN TRUDEAU tends to elicit swoons or scorn when his name is presented in political talk. And, like his famous father, whether Trudeau brings hope or harrumphs depends a bit on where in Canada you are uttering the name. Dismissed by some and deified by others, Trudeau’s entry into the Liberal Party of Canada’s leadership race has definitely created a buzz. But, does Trudeau have “it”? Does he have that intangible connection to the electorate that draws them to him? Can he transfix and excite and create that electrical charge across the nation? Maybe. Maybe not. If he becomes Liberal leader, we will see. Not many politicians have “it” as “it” cannot be taught or learned or bought or earned. “It” simply is — and so powerful because it is so rare. Defining “it” is difficult, but you know “it” when you see “it”. Barack Obama has “it”. As did Bill Clinton. Ronald Reagan and Pierre Trudeau had “it”. Add John F. Kennedy and Teddy Roosevelt to the list. Among major North American leaders of the past century, that’s about it for having “it”. Some politicians think they have “it”, but they don’t. Bill Vander Zalm and Stockwell Day come to mind, but mega-watt smiles and tight wetsuits are not enough on their own to constitute “it”.

CHRISTOPHER FOULDS Newsroom

MUSINGS Jean Chretien, Ralph Klein and Glen Clark came close, but they were more common man than mesmerizing. One did the work of his RCMP detail and used his own hands to dispatch an annoying protester; one spent many an hour quaffing beer with constituents and one remained an affable east Vancouver kid, even while wearing suits in the premier’s office. It’s hard to say what makes one politician have “it”, while so many others don’t. It’s more than the style in which they deliver clever words written by others. It’s more than arriving at an opportune time in history. If you watched Clinton’s remarkable speech last month at the Democratic National Convention, you saw the king of “it”. Clinton took various dull facts and figures, mixed them into his speech and actually succeeded in making a policy argument sound fascinating. It remains the finest performance of this presidential campaign. Writing in the Wall Street Journal in May 2008, Harvard professor

Joseph Nye tackled the issue of political charisma, noting that, while Kennedy was all the buzz, not all buzzed for the man as he failed to capture the majority of the vote in the 1960 election. Still, for whatever reason, Kennedy had (and still has) “it”. Nye also pointed to Winston Churchill who, he said, was not considered an “it” leader when the Second World War began in 1939. A year later, Nye wrote, under the stress of war, Churchill became charismatic in the eyes of the British — before being voted out of office four years later. Nye cited studies to determine whether having “it” originates in the person, in the followers or in the situation. The studies Nye perused pointed to all three. “Voters should be aware that charisma tells them something about a candidate, but even more about themselves, the mood of the country and their desire for change,” Nye wrote. So, as Obama attempts tonight (in the second of three presidential debates, beginning at 6 p.m.) to recover from his dismal performance in Denver, will he rediscover “it” without the aid of a teleprompter or speechwriter? Will he show definitively he has “it”, regardless of the situation? Will Trudeau do likewise next year as he seeks the Liberal crown? It — and “it” — remains to be seen. editor@kamloopsthisweek.com Twitter.com/ChrisJFoulds

If only half of the outpouring of love and support directed toward Amanda Todd had come a week earlier, there’s a good chance the B.C. teen would still be alive today. The 15-year-old Port Coquitlam girl committed suicide last week, a month after posting a haunting video to YouTube detailing her years of abuse from harassment and bullying both at school and online. Todd posted the nineminute video online at the beginning of September, showing her holding up a series of hand-written cards describing the anxiety and depression she was suffering. The video ends with her note: “I have nobody. I need someone.” The story of her tragic suicide has captured the attention of media around the world and more than a dozen online memorials have been set up on Facebook, with one already boasting more than 500,000 “likes.” Police have about two-dozen investigators sifting through leads to find any evidence that could result in charges against individuals, while hundreds of tips are pouring into an email account set up by RCMP. While we hope police are successful in identifying those responsible for tormenting Todd, that will do nothing to prevent a repeat of this heartbreaking story. Coroner Barb McLintock said in order for her to make recommendations to prevent similar tragedies, issues ranging from school and mental-health support to cyber- and social-media bullying must be explored. We must all do all that we can to prevent any more young lives being needlessly cut short. Parents, please talk to your kids. Let them know they are loved and they always have somewhere to turn. Just as importantly, help them to understand pain that can be caused through words — and what we all stand to gain from their offering comfort and support to a classmate in need.

A selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online

Re: Photo: Flipover creates gridlock: “How does this even happen in daylight on a road where the speed limit is 50 km/h and the driving conditions are excellent? “Was there another vehicle involved? Is everyone OK? Are we going to hear any more about this story and how it happened? “It was quite the sight to see on the bus on my way home from work!” — posted by Jennifer Hanna

Re: Story: Two men die in ﬁery highway crash: “It’s a good road if you drive it at posted speeds.” — posted by Terry Robinson “Wouldn’t it be more beneficial to the public at large if MLA Kevin Krueger put his position and energy into raising the bar at the commercial-vehicle driverlicensing level (as we have been suggesting for years) instead of rerouting the problem to a different road?” — posted by Larry Hall

Let’s not be lulled by complacency on Ajax mine Editor: This week, I picked up a book at the Kamloops Art Gallery. It is called Blue River Dark Waters and it is a 2011 compilation of works by Interior authors of British Columbia. Notable is this foreword by Mayor Peter Milobar: “The authors describe the distinctive qualities that make our region so unique — unlike any other area. What a great way to promote our piece of paradise to the rest of the world.” Yet we actually question the necessity of protecting our unique piece of paradise from a belching mine like Ajax proposed for the rim of our city? We question whether it should receive permission to bellow its noise and disruption down into our valley homes far into the distant future? We question whether it be allowed to further contaminate our aquifers, rivers

and air quality? It surely doesn’t take an environmentalist to recognize the absurdity of this. The last two Ajax-related letters to the editor in KTW should be posted on everyone’s fridge. Fred Dwyer, a former director of the Steelhead Society of BC, gives compelling reasons why the proposed mine’s impact on the Thompson River should raise questions, considering the mighty Thompson is already in deep trouble, every year losing a higher number of baby fish that will never return to spawn. Bronwen Scott, with knowledgeable reasoning — some shocking and some that should be obvious to us all —makes the plea to not trade our quality of life for the Ajax mine. Scott makes the comment — and, oh, I do so hope she is wrong — that people here are calmly accepting

the possibility. We must become mine-aware in order not to be lulled by a complacency that says, “Oh, whatever — if a few people want to make some money, it won’t hurt us if we just ignore it . . .” Check out all the likely repercussions online at stopajaxmine.ca. It’s not the mine. It’s the proximity. We were smart enough a few years ago to veto fluoride in our water supply and we can be smart again. Can you imagine the distinctive qualities of Kamloops that would be described by Interior authors should the Ajax mine become the subject of choice? Come on, Mayor Milobar make us proud and take a stand by promoting this piece of paradise. Be our voice. Colleen Carbol Kamloops

The numbers say Ajax will indeed get a BC Hydro subsidy Editor: Re: KTW’s front-page story of Oct. 11 (‘BC Hydro says mine would not get cut rate’) was high on rhetoric and low on detail. If the information in section 21-12 of the proposed Ajax mine-feasibility study is incorrect, why did BC Hydro not come forward earlier to refute the claimed amount of 3.5 cents per kWh? If the amount is incorrect, what is the correct amount? BC Hydro’s large industrial customers are charged under rate schedule 1823, which results in an average

charge to a typical mine of 4.6 cents per kWh. Why did BC Hydro spokesman Dag Sharman not disclose this in the article? In a May 14 letter to the Kamloops Area Preservation Association, BC Hydro indicated the cost to provide new electric power to a new customer is approximately 12 cents per kWh. The people of British Columbia will soon be asked to fund the Site C Dam to the tune of $7.9 billion to meet new demand such as the proposed Ajax mine. Residential-power bills increased by

eight per cent in April and are scheduled for another substantial increase next year, while industrial rates for customers such as the proposed Ajax mine are not scheduled for any increases Residential users pay a rate of 10.19 cents per kWh and are subject to skyrocketing rates and the cost of the Site C Dam, while the Polish-owned KGHM will pay only 4.6 cents. If this is not a power subsidy, I ask Sharman to explain what it is. John Schleiermacher Kamloops Area Preservation Association

Wine,TV the tonic for barking dogs, screaming kids Editor: Re: Darcie Hossack’s column of Oct. 11 (‘Soup provides deliverance from barking dog’): Yes, I agree barking dogs are not good, but it is the owner’s fault, not the dog’s. I have a similar and maybe a worse sound problem. I live in a townhouse and endure kids screaming in that high-pitched scream that just about knocks your head off . Their parents just ignore it and on and on it goes, day after day. Same scenario — it’s the parents’ fault. But, it seems nowadays that everyone is entitled to not care a darn about their neighbours and everyone else has to listen to uncontrolled dogs and kids. I just go inside and have a glass of good B.C. wine and turn on the TV! Lynne Cronk Kamloops

SPCA wins ringworm battle dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

Two of the six cats that prompted closure of the Kamloops SPCA for several weeks have new homes. The remaining four felines — and plenty more — are again up for adoption after shelter staff battled an outbreak of ringworm in the cat population. Shelter general manager Charleen Holloway said Kamloops was one of nine communities in which SPCA branches were shut due to a ringworm outbreak. She said the disease, which can also affect dogs, tends to be more prevalent after cooler, damper summer seasons. The shutdown, which began during the first week of

September, has also taken a toll on the shelter’s finances. Holloway said treating the animals and sanitizing the shelter — in particular, the room in which they were kept — was a cost not anticipated and not part of the budget. “Bleach alone, we spent $600 on it,” Holloway said. The shutdown also meant no animals available for adoption, another hit to an already tight budget, she said. Ringworm is contagious and the recommended way to avoid it is to keep animals brought in for adoption in isolation for several days, but that’s something the shelter doesn’t have the facilities or money to do. Instead, a health exam is done on animals brought in for adoption and, in the case

of ringworm, a special lamp is used, which can often detect the disease. It’s not perfect, Holloway said, but it is a helpful tool. Because the shelter is at maximum capacity for animals up for adoption, Holloway said it’s best if people wishing to bring an animal in call first so other options can be discussed with shelter staff. And, Holloway said, adoptions are encouraged now, especially for the quartet remaining. “They survived the treatment and they still like us,” she said. “And, now, they need a new home.” The shelter can be reached at 250-376-7722 It is open Mondays to Saturdays from noon to 4 p.m.

What you should know about the disease Ringworm is a disease caused by fungus in the hair, upper layers of skin and nails of animals. The name comes from the way the lesion looks — usually a round, red worm-like circle accompanied by fur loss. There are sometimes scales and inflammation associated with the disease. It can be spread through touching or via objects with which an infected animal comes into contact — such as bedding, brushes, saddles or rugs. A culture is

required to properly diagnose the disease, although a quick test involves an ultraviolet lamp used in a dark room on the animal to detect any yellowgreen areas, which

can indicate ringworm presence. Treatment depends on how advanced the case. Ringworm can also affect humans and can be treated by antifungal lotions

FALL HOME SHOW

Thinking of some home renos? The leaves are falling — and the eaves are filling. The furnace may need an upgrade. Maybe you’re thinking about replacing those leaky windows before really cold weather arrives. Even if you are just curious about what’s new in home renovations, Interior Savings Centre is the place to be this weekend as the annual fall edition of the Kamloops Home and Leisure Show returns on Friday, Oct. 19, and vacates the downtown premises on Sunday, April 21. “We are the Tournament Capital of Canada, but we are also the Home Show Capital of Canada,” said organizer Jim Rice, who created BC HomeShows in 1998. This weekend’s hours are Friday (5 p.m. to 9 p.m.), Saturday (10 a.m. to 6 p.m.) and Sunday (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.). As always, admission is free. This weekend’s event features more than 180 exhibitors set to show their wares to the thousands who will visit, perhaps with their to-do lists in hand. “It’s still the best place to come for ideas on building plans, renovation, landscaping, leisure — just about anything that has to do

VISIT THE HOMESHOW FOR MORE INFO ON: with your home,” Rice said. “There will be lots of new products and services. Consumers have a great opportunity of selection.” Exhibitors from throughout B.C. and from across Western Canada will take part in the Interior’s largest home show. A word of advice for those wishing to attend. Since the home show is extremely popular and can be busy, Rice said the best time to attend is right when the doors open. “You miss the rush and you get good parking,” he said, noting parking has been reduced on Lorne Street due to the removal on some on-street parking to accommodate the new Sandman Hotel going up at the corner of Lorne Street and Third Avenue. BC HomeShows Ltd. has been staging home shows for 14 years and serves the communities of Kamloops, Kelowna, Merritt, Penticton, Salmon Arm and Vernon.

Spray-foam insulation helps reduce drafts and warms up everyone drive heating bills upward. In poorly lit or belowgrade areas, any cold drafts and dampness can also be a concern. Using energy-efficient insulation can help address air leaks, as well as help improve comfort. For instance, spray-foam insulation creates a continuous air barrier by expanding

within seconds to fill in every gap, crack or crevice to mitigate any heat and energy being lost. Spray-foam insulation seals the building envelope and provides a cost-saving option to help reduce monthly heating bills. Over the long-term, the savings can quickly add up and drafts become a thing

of the past. Smart homeowners who address air leaks will not only reduce energy waste, but they

can expect to spend less on heating ventilation. Spray-foam insulation is a modern, eco-friendly solution

Second crash victim identiﬁed The BC Coroners Service has released the identify of the second man who died in a fiery head-on truck crash on Highway 5A on Oct. 5. Kewal Singh Kailey, aged 49, of Abbotsford, was driving one of the rigs that collided near Stump Lake, about 40 kilometres south of Kamloops. The driver of the second truck, Gary Miller of Kamloops, was also killed in the collision and resulting fire. Police say a logging truck was travelling south and a truck carrying lime was heading north when the two vehicles crashed into each other, creating a fiery wreck that led to a grass fire starting nearby. The BC Coroners Service could not specify to KTW which driver was driving which vehicle. Weather is not considered a factor as conditions in the area had been clear and dry. The Coroners Service and RCMP continue to investigate the accident, which has prompted Kamloops-South Thompson Liberal MLA Kevin Krueger to renew his call for truck traffic to be banned from the secondary highway route linking Kamloops and Merritt.

FLYING above gravity’s law By Marty Hastings STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

AMLOOPS lawyer Don Campbell will be looking to impress judges in November at the world skydiving championships in Dubai. “This has been about 35 years in the making,” Campbell said. “I’m extremely lucky to have found skydiving, which has given me limitless ability to express that testosterone-poisoned addiction to adrenaline in a way that’s actually very safe.” When Campbell goes airborne on Nov. 28 from 13,500 feet with the eight-person national team, he will be able to forget about 1995, when he qualified for the world championships, but was

unable to soar due to sickness. The 54-year-old attorney will also be able to rid himself of memories from 12 years ago, when he was selected to compete on the four-person national team at worlds in 2000, but tore his achilles before the event and was forced to sit out. Campbell has been a part of five nationalchampionship winning teams since the turn of the millennium — and he can’t wait to let the free-falling begin. “It’s like having 200 kilometres an hour of available power that you can apply to every square-inch of your body,” Campbell said. “If I wanted to fly over there [Campbell pointed across the street from Zack’s Coffee in downtown Kamloops], all I need to do is think

about it and I can be there in a second.” Campbell’s obsession with skydiving started about 25 years ago, when his career as a professional moguls skier fizzled due to injury. However, his penchant for extreme started long before that. “I was the kid that would jump off roofs and didn’t have a lot of respect for physical limitations, which I should have,” Campbell said. “I’d have a lot less broken bones and concussions. This year’s national team — Campbell, along with Garth Brown, Bruce Robertson, Andrea Greening, Sebastian Leybold, Brett Gersekowski, Aidan Walters and Heather Porteous — travelled

to North Carolina to train in a state-of-theart wind tunnel, which blows 200 kilometres of wind at practising skydivers, allowing them to stay afloat. “This is first time I’ve been involved with a group of people that were resolved enough and cohesive enough that we could actually train enough to get to worlds,” Campbell said. The team was able to log 15 hours of practise in the 30-foot mesh-bottomed silo. The trip south cost both time and money

for Campbell and his team, but the commitment will pay off in Dubai, where the world championships — held by Sheikh Mansour Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, chairman of the championships, and Matar Al Tayer, chairman of the higher committee — will be held in style. “I understand, from people who have been to events put on by the Crown Prince, there are big tents filled with food and gold plates and they put us up in hotels that are outra-

geous,” Campbell said. “I’m going with my wife and that was one of the draws. She is solar-powered and likes shopping. I don’t think they do that anywhere better in the world than in Dubai.” There is no money in skydiving, so the lavish bonuses will be payment enough, considering many world championships are held “. . . out in some desert somewhere, miles away from civilization,” Campbell said. “It’s a pretty Spartan experience.”

Perhaps Campbell’s love for flight was passed down from his father, a spitfire pilot in the Second World War, but Campbell is not sure there is any connection. Whatever the reason, Campbell said his adrenaline addiction is never something he will ever be able to quell. “I’ll be skydiving to within two or three weeks of when I die,” he said. “It’s all about dedicating yourself to the absolute perfection of flying.”

Rugby Raiders win two of three The Kamloops Rugby Club Raiders won two of three B.C. Rugby Union matches played at the Tournament Capital Ranch on Saturday, Oct. 13. In the day’s marquee matchup, a late Brandon Kicia try — his second of the match — lifted the Raiders to a 32-25 win over Vancouver Rowing Club (VRC) in men’s first-division play. Also scoring tries for the hosts were Justin Fournier, Sam Bogetti and James Rees. Kicia added two conversions and a penalty to round out the Raiders’ scoring. Kamloops boasts a 4-0 record and sits atop the BCRU’s firstdivision ranks. In women’s firstdivision action, the Raiders edged United Rugby Club of Coquitlam 27-25.

HAUL GUYS

Lipon, Blazers making sweet, sweet music By Marty Hastings STAFF REPORTER

sports@kamloopsthisweek.com

When the Kamloops Blazers take the ice for pre-game warm-up at Interior Savings Centre, a playlist — compiled and mixed by JC Lipon — sets the pace. The pump-up tunes seem to be doing the trick, especially for the 19-year-old forward, whose eight-point weekend boosted him into the WHL’s scoring lead and his team to a pair of wins. The Blazers knocked off the Hitmen 5-2 in Calgary on Sunday, Oct. 14, and earned a 5-1 victory over the Spokane Chiefs in Kamloops on Friday, Oct. 12. “The boys like a lot of EDM, electronic dance music,” said Lipon, who has nine goals and 22 points on the season. “I usually put a rap song on first, a good head-bobber, and just go from there.” From here, Kamloops (8-0-0-1) will

play Red Deer tonight (Oct. 16), Edmonton (Oct. 17), Lethbridge (Oct. 19) and Kootenay (Oct. 20) before returning to ISC on Oct. 26 to host Brandon. On Friday, the Regina product lit the lamp three times before the 10-minute mark of the first frame. “It’s going in right now and I’m just going to keep rolling with it,” said Lipon, who was named the Denny’s WHL player of the week on Monday, Oct. 15, marking the second time he has won the award in as many weeks. “It’s always good to be confident.” Colin Smith scored twice on Sunday and Aspen Sterzer rounded out the Blazers’ scoring. Lipon’s lone assist on Friday came on Kamloops’ last goal of the game, scored by Brendan Ranford, his fourth of the campaign. Cole Ully, who notched his fifth of the season, was the Blazers’

other goal scorer against Spokane. Lipon’s linemates, especially centreman Smith, deserve credit for supplying the weekend’s undisputed first star with a plethora of opportunities. Smith finished the weekend with two goals and six points. Tim Bozon, the line’s leftwinger, had one helper.

Cole Cheveldave had a solid weekend between the pipes for Kamloops, stopping 49 of the 52 shots that came his way. Kicking off Lipon’s playlist is Kanye West’s Clique, then, as Lipon mentioned, the electronica, dubstep and trance takes over. Lipon seems to be in a point-recording

trance — at this pace, he would surpass last season’s point total of 65 in short order — and he just wants to keep the beat rolling. “This road trip is a tough trek, but I think we can win them all,” Lipon said. “There is still a goose-egg in the loss column, so we’ll try to keep it like that.”

Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality has received an application from Delta Sun Peaks Resort Hotel for a proposed amendment to its existing Liquor Primary License. The Delta Sun Peaks Resort currently has both a Food Primary Liquor License and a Liquor Primary License. The applicant is requesting to transfer the occupant load of three areas, M Room, Morrisey’s Public House and Morrisey’s Patio, from their Food Primary License to their existing Liquor Primary License. The proposed change will increase the occupant load of the Liquor Primary License by 185 persons. The hours of liquor service will remain unchanged. Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality invites the views of residents with respect to this proposed change. If you have any objections to the proposed change or wish your comments considered by Council, please submit them in writing to the Municipal office. Comments will be accepted until the 5th day of November, 2012. Comments may be forwarded in writing to: Sun Peaks Mountain Resort Municipality 106-3270 Village Way Sun Peaks, BC, V0E 5N0

2013 BC SENIORS GAMES

bocce By Sarah MacMillan SPECIAL TO KTW editor@kamloopsthisweek.com

Kamloops will host the 2013 B.C. Seniors Games from Aug. 20 to Aug. 24, 2013. The city is expecting about 3,500 athletes, ages 55 and up, to attend the Games, which will feature more than 20 events, ranging from cribbage to ice hockey. KTW continues its biweekly feature page, with each page focusing on one of the Games’ events.

It’s a game that started in Italy, but has now become popular recreation all over the world And, Canada is no exception as bocce is played at summer gatherings and sporting events alike. Bocce is a game played on a soil or asphalt court in which individuals or teams throw their balls, trying to get them as close to the jack as possible. The jack is a smaller ball that is thrown by the team and the goal is to try to throw the bocce balls as close as possible to the jack. “Bocce is just like bowling” said Judy Zmaeff, B.C. Senior Games zone eight bocce representative. “It’s very similar to bowling, but you don’t knock over pins — you throw towards the jack.”

Zmaeff used to be a dart player, but became interested in bocce after she received a shoulder injury. “With my shoulder, I could throw underhand,” she said. “And, I figured it would be just so interesting to try something new.” Zmaeff noted bocce is a very mental game “You have to know where you’re going,” she said. Though the game is somewhat similar to lawn bowling, the game is drastically different in that the balls used in bocce are completely spherical and therefore have no built-in bias. The rules of bocce are relatively simple. Each person or team gets four bowls and the match begins when one team, which is randomly selected, usually through a coin toss, throws the jack to the other end of the bocce court.

The team that places the jack then bowls first, with the team that does not have its ball closest to the jack continuing to bowl until all four balls have been placed. After all balls have been bowled, the person or team that has balls closest to the jack — and is not farther out than the opponents ball — is awarded one point for each ball. This year was the first for Zmaeff in bocce competition and, though she doesn’t expect any medals at the 2013 B.C. Senior Games in Kamloops, she does think it will be fun. “And, if I can do it, than so can you,” she said. If you are interested in bocce or would like more information about the B.C. Senior Games, contact Judy Zmaeff by phone at 250-837-5670, by email at bzmaeff@telus.net or visit the B.C Senior Games website at bcseniorsgames.org.

with disabled people. In an interview last year with KTW, Wright said of those early years she was raised by parents who were country singers in a band in her hometown, “and the Moose Lodge and band practice, always music and I had this crazy idea that maybe I could pay my rent and make music while I went to school.” One day, after a bar gig, “I called my mom and said, ‘I think I know what I’m gonna do.’ “That was between my first and second years at college, but I set my sights on this.” Riding through Montana, Wright said she’s excited to be back on the road. “We left Nashville 36 hours ago and we’re just gonna deadhead out there and, on Oct. 13, away we go.” The tour opens in Campbell River that day and continues to Nov. 21, when it wraps up in Kingston.

By Dale Bass STAFF REPORTER

Sharing the joy — and music

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

N INTERVIEW WITH MICHELLE WRIGHT IS ALWAYS A DELIGHT. She’s as likely to start singing as she is to give you one of her completely downhome, unpretensious answer to a question. For example, as she listed some of the singers she’ll be featuring in the Songs From the Halls tour that brings her to Kamloops on Saturday, Oct. 20, she mentioned Stevie Wonder. “Which song are you doing from him?” Wright was asked and she broke into her own version of the lead-in — including the opening musical chords — of Signed, Sealed, Delivered. Also on the list is Aretha Franklin and, of course, Wright has chosen Natural Woman for her set list. “Well, first of all, I picked it because it was written by Carole King,” the Canadian country star said. As a teenager, she spent hour after hour listening to King’s album Tapestry, an influence in her musical development she said was huge. As for Franklin’s rendition of the song, “I listened to the 1967 version,” Wright said, “and it’s flawless. “It should never be touched. Singing it just makes me glad to be alive.”

Wright has included two songs by Bonnie Raitt because she couldn’t decide between I Can’t Make You Love Me and Nick of Time. “It was so hard, really,” she said. “I chose these songs because, well, listen to the lyrics. “‘Turn down the

lights, turn down the bed. Turn down these voices inside my head’,” she recited. “‘Lay down with me, tell me no lies. Just hold me close, don’t patronize.’ “Patronize. She found a way to use that word in a song. “Imagine it.” Phoning from the

back of a bus that had left Nashville, the place the Ontario farm girl now calls home, Wright said she and her band are still working on songs that might make it into the show. “I’m gonna learn an Eagles song, Heartache Tonight,” she said, “and it might be one we do. “The whole thing is

an evolving thing.” Al Green, Merle Haggard, Anne Murray, Joni Mitchell and the Vaughn Brothers (Jimmie and Stevie Ray) are also on the set list. The tour, a year in planning, developing, booking and rehearsing, is Wright’s gift to her fans, she said, as

much as it is a celebration of her 2011 induction into the Canadian Country Music Hall of Fame, its youngest inductee ever even though she’s been in the business for more than 30 years, 10 of them playing bars back in Southern Ontario while she went to college, studying to work

A pairing you can’t miss out on!

Trench to heat up Kamloops By Nigel Hanks SPECIAL TO KTW editor@kamloopsthisweek.com

Mike Ayley, bassist of pop-punk band Marianas Trench, insists it was not named after the geographical Marianas Trench (the deepest part of the world’s ocean). Rather, he said with a laugh, it was the other way around. Since playing its first show at The Backstage Lounge in Vancouver about a decade ago, Marianas Trench has won Much Music video awards and, most recently, a 2012 Juno Award nomination for its new album, Ever After. The band kicked off its Face the Music Tour in Barrie, Ont., on

MARIANAS TRENCH When: Saturday, Nov. 3, 7 p.m. Where: Interior Savings Centre, 300 Lorne St. Tickets: $37.50 and $45, plus charges and taxes and available at ticketmaster.ca, the Ticketmaster outlet at Sahali Mall, the ISC box ofﬁce or by calling 1-888-985-5000. Oct. Oct 12 and will end the tour in Kamloops on Saturday, Nov. 3, at Interior Savings Centre. The original lineup of Marianas Trench has remained the same since forming in Vancouver with vocalist/guitarist Josh Ramsay, lead-guitarist Matt Webb, bassist Ayley and drummer Ian Casselman. Ramsay started playing with Webb in a band called Ramsay Fiction and later recruited Casselman and Ayley

to become Marianas Trench. Ayley said once they discovered themselves musically, it was Ramsay’s persistent demo-shopping that eventually led them to be signed to Jonathan Simkin and Chad Kroeger’s label, 604 Records. The band’s SOCAN Award-winning video that accompanied the 2007 single Shake Tramp is what broke it into the mainstream,

Ayley Ay said, and its style has ha since evolved in a more m artistic direction with wi songs like Haven’t Had Ha Enough and Fallout. When he is not playing music — which is rare — Ayley finds yoga rar “balances the rock and “b roll.” ro He is excited to play the last show of the tour in Kamloops, he said, as fans are sure to get a refined performance. “If you think it’s hot in Kamloops in the summer, it’s going to be hotter November 3.” The vinyl version of Ever After, which will be available at the show, comes with a digitaldownload code. Marianas Trench will be playing with Down with Webster and Anami Vice.

NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING

Where the Blood Mixes compelling theatre By Dale Bass STAFF REPORTER dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

OU MUST SEE WHERE THE BLOOD MIXES. Not necessarily because it tells the story of one of the most-tragic and heinous chapters in Canadian history — although that is a good reason. And, not necessarily because it is one of the best-written plays to ever be produced by Western Canada Theatre. If you need only one reason, go to see a cast that is stunning. The five actors who tell the story of two First Nations men grappling with their residential school-created demons will mesmerize you. It can be something as simple as a facial expression to the dramatic interactions between the two men, the white bartender, the First Nations woman who loves one of the men and the daughter taken into care years before coming home to find her roots. Anyone who saw Thunderstick at Pavilion Theatre two years ago knows Craig Lauzon and Lorne Cardinal have an exceptional chemistry. It propels the Kevin Loring play that continues to Saturday, Oct. 20. Michaela Washburn, as the girlfriend of Lauzon’s character, captivated me as she went through all the emotions of someone who has packed away her own trauma and wishes the man she loves would do the same. Sera-Lys McArthur, as the daughter eventually adopted after being put into foster care, made me cry — while her story is that of many First Nations children, the simple need to find her own roots resonated with me, having lived through the discovery of my own sibling adopted as a child. Lauzon and Cardinal set the bar so high in their performances, but

each of the other cast members, including Robert Benz as their friend, the bartender, managed to meet it every time they were on the stage. The technical side is often overlooked in

reviews, but mention has to be made of the spot-on lighting by Cory Sincennes, who also designed the sparse set. Dave Clarke, the sound designer and composer, created a

soundtrack that helps propel the story along. The Governor General Award-winning play was workshopped by WCT years ago, with the late David Ross in the role of the bartender.

When this season was announced months ago, I told my friends at the press conference this play was the one I truly wanted to see. It didn’t live up to my expectations at all — it surpassed them.

Protecting our province from the harmful effects of used oil and antifreeze must be a responsibility we all share, together. So please, next time you look to dispose of used oil or antifreeze materials, find a collection facility near you. Here are three easy ways to do so:

Notice is hereby given that the Annual General Meeting of Kamloops Minor Lacrosse Association will be held at the Thompson Hotel and Conference Centre on Wednesday, October 24th, 2012 at 6:30 pm.

In a continued effort to encourage higher rates of recovery, BCUOMA has built a strong support network across the province. Today, participation includes 209 brand-owner members, 39 collectors and processors, 520+ return collection facilities and more than 4,000 generators. In addition, BCUOMA is reprising its successful ambassador program this summer – with two ambassadors touring the province to educate and raise awareness of the importance of used oil and antifreeze recycling.

Although it’s commonly accepted that oil and antifreeze are not household garbage we can simply throw out, more than one million litres of used oil ends up in BC landfills every year. When you consider that it only takes one drop of oil to contaminate a million drops of water, the problem is clear: there’s just too many drops to count, too many to ignore. BCUOMA is a non-for-profit organization that encourages British Columbians to responsibly recycle used oil, oil filters, oil containers, used antifreeze and antifreeze containers. Since the launch of the program in 2003, British Columbians have done an exceptional job of recycling their used oil materials.

Convertible or sunroof — Eos is versatile

HEY SAY YOU CAN NEVER GET TOO MUCH OF A GOOD THING. For me, that’s definitely the case with Volkswagen’s spiffy little Eos convertible. Whenever I get a chance to drive one, I jump at it. This is a car I consider a sleeper — it’s much better than you expect it to be when you first set eyes upon it. I’ve driven the Eos every year since its introduction in 2007, so I’m familiar with it, but the car still remains a relatively small player in the Canadian convertible marketplace, with sales of 708 units in the 2011 model year and 516 units to the end of August this year. Of course, convertibles are a niche market here in Canada, with our short topdown season, but I’ve always said the Eos has so much going for it thanks to its retractable hardtop with a built-in sunroof. On a nice, sunny fall day, if it’s too cool to put the top all the way down, the Eos gives you the option of flicking a switch to either tip up or fully LORNE DRURY open the sunroof. Several other cars have First retractable hardtops, but comDRIVE bining one with a sunroof is a world-first for Volkswagen — and a feature I find desirable. In fact, cars like the Eos, with their folding hardtops, make so much sense in Canada because you can have the best of all worlds — a convertible in summer and hardtop in winter. With the Eos, the five-piece folding hardtop stows neatly away in the trunk in less than 30 seconds. Top down, trunk space is reduced to 186 litres from the already meager 297 litres with the top up. However, unless you have a carload of passengers, use the rear seat as added storage, as we did on a weekend getaway this past summer to Michigan. The Eos roof is a marvel of design. People will stand and watch as the roof does its little dance and stows neatly and efficiently in the trunk in about 25 seconds. Of course, all this comes at a price — my brilliant salsa-red Highline tester came in at a shade over the $50,000 mark, once everything was tallied up, and that takes the car up into premium territory. But, the competition the Eos faces comes from luxu-

ry brands like Lexus, BMW and Mercedes-Benz, so we are talking top-shelf talent here. For 2012, Volkswagen gives the Eos its first facelift since introduction six years ago. With the redesign, there is no mistaking this for anything but a Volkswagen, with the wide VW signature grille and new headlamp design. The rear gets LED taillights. One engine only is available on the Eos — a peppy, turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder powerplant that produces 200 horsepower and 207 pound-feet of torque. No manual here — only a six-speed direct shift gearbox (DSG) with Tiptronic to allow for manual shifting. Premium unleaded fuel is recommended. X See CONVERTIBLE B9

AUTOMARKET One-litre engine wins breakthrough award

EXPERIENCE LIFE ACROSS ALL TERRAIN

Ford Motor Company’s innovative 1.0-litre, three-cylinder EcoBoost engine has been honoured with a Breakthrough Award from Popular Mechanics magazine. Each year, the magazine selects the 10 technology products that matter most. In addition to the newest member of Ford’s global EcoBoost-engine family, awards were given to a new type of camera, an affordable 3-D printer and several other high-tech items. While the 1.0-litre EcoBoost is Ford’s first three-cylinder engine — and one of the smallest-displacement engines Ford has ever built — it is not short on power or refinement. Already on sale in Europe, this newest EcoBoost engine packs up to 125 horsepower and is loaded with technical innovations. It delivers impressive acceleration and is one of the smoothest and quietest engines in Ford’s lineup globally. “We placed the bar incredibly high when we set out to design this engine,” said Joe Bakaj, Ford vice-president, Global Powertrain. “We wanted to deliver eye-popping fuel economy, surprising performance, quietness and refinement — and all from a very small three-cylinder engine. Earlier this year, the engine was named

International Engine of the Year by a jury of 76 journalists from 35 countries. The engine, available in Europe in the Focus, C-MAX and B-MAX models, features a split cooling system, offset crankshaft, variable oil pump and other innovations. Ford plans to offer the engine globally, including North America. EcoBoost features turbocharging, direct fuel injection and variable valve timing to enable a smaller, downsized engine to deliver the performance of a larger engine with about a 20 per cent gain in fuel economy.

Optional on the test vehicle was the $2,925 technology package, featuring a touch-screen navigation system, Dynaudio 600-watt digital sound system with 10 speakers and Sirius satellite radio. Safety-wise, the Eos is well outfitted, with standard front, side curtain and side

thorax airbags, electronic stability control, traction control and anti-lock brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and hill-hold assist. Fit and finish is excellent and the beige leather interior in the test vehicle had a decidedly upscale look and feel. Legroom in the back seat is tight, but this is a convertible where you can actually seat a couple of live bodies in the rear quarters. The front seats are comfortable and adjust to any body size. With the top up on the highway, the Eos is surprisingly quiet, with few shakes and rattles that sometimes accompany hardtop convertibles. Top down, minor cowl shake is evident on bumpy roads, but not so it is alarming or irritating. A wind blocker is available to help keep passengers from being buffeted around when driving topless. The Eos is more of a touring car than a sports car, but it does

have enough power to keep the driver engaged on those enticing back-road twisties. This is a car you can live with yearround; it doesn’t have to be stored away in winter. Think of it as a convertible for all seasons.

Dodge Dart top safety pick The new Dodge Dart, with its 10 standard-equipment air bags and one of the auto industry’s highest contentratios of high-strength steel, has been named a 2012 Top Safety Pick by the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The first product born of Chrysler Group LLC’s alliance with Fiat S.p.A. recorded the maximum possible rating in each of the four crash tests used by the IIHS to evaluate occupant protection, the primary attribute of a Top Safety Pick. The 2013 Dart achieved a score of “good” in tests that simulate rollover

and rear-, side- and moderate-overlap frontal-impacts. The IIHS rating scale has grades of good, acceptable, marginal and poor. Chrysler Group’s new compact sedan was engineered with a classleading more than 60 safety and security features to ensure peace of mind. The Dart’s safety story starts with a solid structure: High-strength steel makes up 68 per cent of the car’s body, one of the highest ratios in the industry. Ten standard equipment, advanceddesign air bags further improve occupant protection.

Front bench to take a back seat When the 2014 Chevrolet Impala arrives next year, it will put to rest a fixture of automobiles since the days of the horseless carriage — the front bench seat. The outgoing Impala is the last passenger car in production in North America to offer threeacross front seating, an option that ends with the introduction of Chevy’s redesigned flagship sedan. The passing of the front bench seat into automotive history is expected to transpire without notice from many car buyers. Only one in 10 Impala buyers chose the option last year on the LS and LT models.

For many of today’s car buyers, front bucket seats are the norm — a trend General Motors’ designers expect will continue. “A lot of people prefer bucket seats because they’re sporty, even in models that aren’t sports cars,” said Clay Dean, GM director of design. “Our customers also appreciate having the centre console as a convenient place to store their phone and other personal items.” The first Chevrolet ever manufactured, the Series C Classic Six of 1911, featured a front bench seat. Chevrolet will continue to offer bench seats on pickup trucks

and sport utilities. The need for six-passenger sedans is largely being met today by SUVs or crossovers like the Chevrolet Suburban and Traverse, which offer seating for up to eight. “There is certain nostalgia for bench seats, like being able to snuggle up with your date at a drive-in movie, and some customers still like them,” Dean said. “You never know, we might see bench seats re-emerge some day, possibly in very small cars like the EN-V urban mobility concept vehicle, in which the feeling of open space may be very desirable.”

! IN DS ST Y N 1 RR E R 3 U R E H

This is a 1937 Chevrolet Coach with a front bench seat. The 2013 Chevrolet Impala is the last North American passenger car in the industry to offer a front bench seat, an option that will disappear with the 2014 model.

EXPERIENCE LIFE ACROSS ALL TERRAIN

Congratulations

Audi pioneers fuel using waste water Audi engineers have contributed to a breakthrough of almost miraculous proportions by helping to develop fuels for the TFSI and TDI engines of the near future‚ using nothing more than lengths of ordinary-looking pipe, waste CO2, sunlight and microscopic organisms suspended in waste water. The new fuels have been developed by Audi and its U.S.-based specialist fuels partner, Joule. The “refineries” responsible for them are the photosynthetic microorganisms injected into brackish water standing in the lengths of pipe. Measuring around three-thousandths of a millimetre in diametre, these organisms have been genetically modified to prevent them from multiplying, using the sunlight-aided photosynthesis process as they normally would. Instead, they are stimulated to use this process to convert the waste CO2 and the waste water into liquid fuels which they secrete and which can be easily separated from the water and concentrated without the need for any further manufacturing steps. The global viability of these new fuels lies not only in the simple and relatively inexpensive process which creates them, but also in the fact the feedstock used to produce them is renewable. The crop-based biomass that has traditionally been a key constituent of synthetic fuels — and that could often otherwise be used

a sustainable and exceptionally pure Audi e-diesel fuel. In contrast to petroleum-based diesel, which is a mixture of a wide variety of organic compounds, this fuel is not only free of sulphur and aromatics, but is also easy to ignite thanks to its high cetane value, giving it exceptional performance credentials that promote outstanding engine operating efficiency. Audi e-diesel will work effectively with existing Audi TDI clean-diesel systems without the need for modification. The partnership between Audi and Joule has been in place since 2011. Joule has protected its technology with patents for which Audi has acquired exclusive rights in the automotive field. Audi engineers with extensive know-how in the areas of fuel and engine testing are helping to further develop these remarkable fuels so they can be brought to market.

Audi and its U.S. fuels partner Joule have developed a remarkable process whereby microorganisms suspended in brackish or waste water can use sunlight and waste CO2 to create e-ethanol and e-diesel without need for biomass.

for human consumption — is not required here. This has the added advantage of removing the need to locate the fuel production facility near habitable or arable land. A remote desert facility is entirely feasible. Proof of this fact can be found in an unfertile, sun-baked region of New Mexico, where Audi and Joule have commissioned a demonstration facility already producing sustainable e-ethanol. This has the same chemical properties as bioethanol, a fuel which is consistently gaining in popularity, but which has the disadvantage of being produced using biomass. It will be possible to blend up to 85 per cent Audi e-ethanol with as little as 15 per cent fossil-fuel petrol for use by vehicles capable of running on E85 fuel. Audi and Joule are also ramping up the same facility to produce

Her Journey’s Just Begun

Turn Again To Life If I should die and leave you here a while, be not like others sore undone, who keep long vigil by the silent dust. For my sake turn again to life and smile, nerving thy heart and trembling hand to do something to comfort other hearts than thine. Complete these dear unfinished tasks of mine and I perchance may therein comfort you. MARY LEE HALL

Don’t think of her as gone away, Her journey’s just begun. Life holds so many facets, This earth is only one. Just think of her as resting, From the sorrows and the tears, In a place of warmth and comfort, Where there are no days and years. Think how she must be wishing, That we could know today, How nothing but our sadness, Can really pass away. And think of her as living, In the hearts of those she touched, For nothing loved is ever lost; And she was loved so much. E.. Breenneeman a
