City supports funding for SEKID upgrade
Mayor getting down to business
Judie Steeves STAFF REPORTER
Alistair Waters
Kelowna city council agreed Monday to support provincial funding for the South East Kelowna Irrigation District’s first phase in its water quality improvement plan. Borrowing $15.3 million to begin the plan was rejected by SEKID ratepayers Oct. 25, and Interior Health responded by giving the improvement district until Nov. 30 to provide an alternative proposal for implementing its plan, without government assistance. Mike Adams, environmental health officer with Interior Health, commented that it’s encouraging that all have agreed on a priority. He admitted the SEKID has challenges, with its rural population, but he said it is among the systems within IH that is most in need of improvements. “For any water supplier, the expectation is clean, safe tap water for users,” he noted. The Kelowna Joint Water Committee requested council’s support after agreeing in late October that the SEKID project should have top priority for consideration for senior government funding, because it is the project that addresses the highest health risk. Cost of implementing the first stage of SEKID’s plan would be $8.2 million. It was following a two-hour workshop on the Kelowna Integrated Water Supply Plan Monday morning that council agreed to endorse the committee’s resolution to support provincial funding for Stage One of SEKID’s improvement plan. The KJWC is made up of each of the five major water utilities—the City of Kelowna, SEKID, Black Mountain Irrigation District, Glenmore-Ellison Improvement District and Rutland Waterworks. The 400-page plan was prepared by engineer Bob Hrasko, of Agua Consulting, with the support of all five utilities, as the best, lowest-cost solutions to reach the public health requirements of Interior Health, including flexibility as far as governance is concerned and setting out a staged plan. In all, there are 48 individual projects to complete the eight-stage project, with a total implementation cost of $383 million.

In a bid to deliver on one of his key election platforms from a year ago, Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray has announced the city has named its first executive director of business development. Jim Paterson, the city’s current general manager of community sustainability, assumed the new position Monday and will now be the city’s link between business and City Hall, particularly with new businesses that are locating here or are looking to do so. “Jim will be the muchneeded link between business and city services and will work with key community partners such as the Economic Development Commission to facilitate new business development opportunities, as well as support existing businesses,” said Gray. The move follows Gray’s vow during his inaugural speech last December to ensure Kelowna is recognized as “an outstanding place to conduct business.” The mayor said it also follows his council’s development of priorities for

Plan outlines 21 recommendations to improve water quality SEKID from A1 To reach Stage Three, which would satisfy the minimum requirements of Interior Health, would cost a total of $49 million, and could be done over

$1,298.67 for SEKID users. In between, GEID users would pay $721 a year to reach the third stage, while BMID users would pay $459 and those using Kelowna city water would pay $303. Andrew Reeder, manager of utilities planning for the city, told council members Interior Health can decide to issue an order to proceed with the

improvement work, in which case public consent to borrow the money would not be required. “It would be interesting to see what would happen if SEKID did nothing by the deadline,� said Coun. Robert Hobson. Adams said he hopes the SEKID board will look at other ways to proceed, whether with different timelines or by raising funds to begin in some other way. He said he heard from ratepayers that they support the improvements but not the way of paying for them. The city’s water system serves a population
of 62,000, with annual demand of 15,800 mega litres, 29 per cent of the demand in the city while BMID serves 22,000 people, with 13,400 ML, or 25 per cent of the city’s demand; GEID serves 16,000 people with 7,200 ML, or 13 per cent of the demand; RWD services 13,000 with 2,920 ML (all from wells), or five per cent of the demand; and SEKID serves just 6,000 with 11,120 ML or 21 per cent of the total. There are a number of smaller utilities which serve 1,344 people with 3,433 ML, six per cent of the total. In all, the plan includes 21 recommenda-
tions including that all utilities adopt and implement the plan, then work to carry out an implementation strategy through a memorandum of understanding. As well, it recommends that long-term, primary domestic water should come from three locations on Okanagan Lake and one intake on Mission Creek, supplemented by groundwater wells. Supplying water from creeks by gravity is the most cost-effective way to provide water for agriculture, so separation of water distribution systems will be needed in some instances, where the raw
water quality is poor. Ultimately, the plan envisions interconnection capacity between all systems to reduce the impact of drought and to deal with emergencies. Standardization should be the goal of all the utilities, from water metering to pricing. There is more than nine per cent leakage at present throughout the system, and this should be reduced to less than five per cent, says the report. Several councillors congratulated the five systems on working together to achieve a joint plan to improve water quality throughout Kelowna. jsteeves@kelownacapnews.com

Mayor from A1 the current term, priorities that focus on growing the local economy and focusing on results. Paterson joined the city
COMMUNITY FORUM ON GM FOOD
as its planning manager in 2008 and became the general manager of community sustainability when city departments were reorganized last year. Prior to coming to Kelowna, he served as the acting director of planning, property and development for the City of Winnipeg, as well as its manager of economic development. He currently serves on the Central Okanagan Economic Development Commission’s executive and is also the point person for the city with the Kelowna Chamber of
Commerce. Gray said unlike the EDC’s executive director Robert Fine, Paterson will work with businesses once they have decided to locate here or if they are considering doing so. Gray said Fine’s role is more to go out and attract business to the entire Central Okanagan. “So it won’t be a case of duplication,� said the mayor. Having an economic development officer as part of a city staff is not uncommon in larger municipalities, as the mayor said council felt Kelowna
needed a dedicated person to focus solely on business development. According to city manager Ron Mattiussi, Kelowna’s director of real estate and building services Doug Gilchrist will act as general manager of community sustainability for the next five to six months while some other changes are made to the city’s corporate structure. He was the acting general manager for corporate sustainability for the first six months of Paul Macklem’s year-long secondment to the regional district.

NEWS ▼ MISSING PERSON
Mother still searching for son now missing for decades For more than 23-years Denise Horvath-Allan has been searching, in the hopes of finding an answer to the question of what happened to her son. Charles Karoly John Horvath-Allan was a 20-year-old Canadian-born British subject who decided to hitchhike across Canada in 1988. After traveling from Ontario to British Columbia in the spring of 1989, he registered at the Tiny Town Campground in Kelowna on May 11, 1989, and was working at the now defunct Flintstones Bedrock City. “He had maintained contact with his family throughout his travels and so, when he failed to finalize arrangements to meet them in Hong Kong as had been planned, he was reported missing by his mother Denise Horvath-Allan,” said Const. Kris Clark. Charles was last seen May 26, 1989
and his whereabouts remain unknown. “Charles’ father and grandmother have both passed on and it tortures his mother to think that she too may never know her son’s fate,” said Clark. His late grandmother, Edith Thorpe once said: “If you know who took Charles from our lives or if you know where his body is located, please find the courage to come forward. Peace desperately needs to be brought to our lives.” The police file is open and will remain active until Charles is found, said Clark. If you have any information regarding the whereabouts of Charles Horvath-Allan, please contact the Kelowna RCMP at 250-762-3300. Remain anonymous by calling Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477, leaving an online tip at www. crimestoppers.net or texting CRIMES (274637), subject line ktown.

Public library head ready to retire richard rolke CONTRIBUTOR
After years of overseeing’s the public library system, Lesley Dieno is ready for a new chapter in life. Dieno will retire as executive director of Okanagan Regional Library at the end of the year. “I am ready,” said Dieno, who has held the position for 25 years and is looking forward to travel-
ing. “I have known for the last year that I will retire.” Dieno has seen a number of changes during her tenure, including growth of the system to 29 branches and the introduction of Internet-based services. “I have enjoyed my time with ORL,” she said. “It kept me here longer than any other job that I’ve had because it’s always changing.”
Dieno is receiving praise from the agency’s vice-chairperson. “Her years with ORL have seen great progress in seeing her and her staff move forward to better serve the public,” said Jim Edgson. “The direction, advice, and counsel she has given to the board has been invaluable—and she will be remembered for it.” The board is currently determining who the
next executive director will be and an announcement should be made by Dec. 31. “There are always huge opportunities when there is turnover of the chief administrative officer,” said Dieno. “They will hire someone young and energetic and they will move forward.” ORL is the 16th largest library system in Canada and it serves more than 360,000 people across 59,600 square kilometres.

A 26-year-old Kelowna man has been charged with several offences relating to a home invasion on Halloween night. Keven Graham has been charged with break and enter, using a firearm while committing and armed robbery, said Const. Kris Clark. Police allege that on Nov. 1 12:15 a.m., the Kelowna RCMP received a report of a home invasion on the 1300 block of Belaire Avenue. “The report indicated that two unknown men entered home with guns and threatened the occupant. The woman fled the residence and called 911,” said Clark. “Police were able to track the suspects to a nearby house and affect arrests. The suspects remain in custody at this
time.” He remains in custody at this time and is scheduled to appear in court on Nov. 8. The second suspect has not yet been located and a warrant for his arrest is pending approval from the Crown.
STEALING FROM THE NEEDY
A 23-year-old Kelowna man remains in custody, charged with theft after allegedly stealing a Tim Hortons Camp Day coin box earlier this week. The Kelowna RCMP received a report of theft from the Tim Hortons in the Orchard Park Mall on Oct. 29 at 10:30 a.m. “Apparently at about 5 a.m. that morning, a man and a woman entered the coffee shop and, while ordering food, the man cut the security cable from the Camp Day charity coin box,” said Const. Kris Clark. “The man concealed the coin box and left the scene on foot. Video evidence revealed a suspect to police who was later identified and arrested for the offence.” Christopher David Katona has been charged with theft under $5,000 and remains in custody. He is scheduled to appear in court Nov. 6

When we witness unkindness and do nothing, we perpetuate it
A
parishioner once told me of a girl growing up in Chicago. Vaguely aware that her family was from the South, she was 30 before her elder sister told her the family secret. In the South, they were identified as Black—though the children were 7/8th Caucasian. The family moved north, and passed as white. They disowned their past. They “went into the closet� in hopes of giving their children a better life. How many of us have done something similar? I don’t necessarily mean our racial heritage. Nor our sexual orientation. I wonder about those parts of ourselves that are a legacy of our experience growing up—the pieces that didn’t fit in. How often do we manage to forget, silence or disown those pieces that don’t conform? How often did Jesus of Nazareth speak up for precisely those people who were marginalized in his own society, and refuse to conform to life-limiting conventions
SOUL SEARCHING
Linda Horton himself? Sages and saints through history, in diverse cultures, have rarely ‘fit in.� I think of the tales of the Sufi sage Nesrudin, who was always shocking the conventional folk of his town. At the extreme of the spectrum are such trickster figures as Raven and Coyote in Native lore. Jesus, along with many religious teachers, had a particular concern for the exclusion of the poor. I think of a participant in anti-bias training who “came out� as a person who had grown up poor. He tapped into deeply painful feelings still there after decades— shame about wearing cheap imitations of the “in� clothes other kids could afford. Watching this competent adult cry out in anguish, I was shaken by the persistence of such suffering.
In Southern California where I grew up, it was an insult to be called a “wetback�—a derogatory term for a Mexican illegal alien. I had darker skin than most of my peers, and my stepfather was part Native American. So I was taunted frequently, and even assaulted. The adult I have become is quite at home in the world—but the child wants to shout “How dare you exclude and denigrate anyone?� Those memories surfaced with the recent news about another tragic outcome of bullying. Every time we do not speak up when we witness even a small unkindness, we are complicit in perpetuating a society in which such vicious destruction of fragile human hearts and spirits can happen. Our conformist society is build upon a genuine longing of the human heart—the longing to belong. Our own experience can build bridges of empathy. But it can also be a barrier. Declaring ourselves allies of the marginalized stirs things up. If we have not come
to terms with our own woundedness and accepted our quirks and imperfections with compassion and humour, it is difficult to find the strength. Being part of a supportive spiritual community can help. Voices of the marginalized challenge us to examine the societal values we have consented to— to open our private closets—to emerge from the cocoons we have created to protect ourselves from suffering. For transformation cannot happen if we stay in cocoons. Connection and courage are not found in closets. Those who would practice compassion and build a more just society cannot afford to be “well adjusted.� We must be, rather, “creatively maladjusted�—refusing to take for granted that such evils must exist. Refusing to cocoon ourselves away from the pain of the “other.� Refusing, as my universalist ancestors did, to be happy in heaven when any sentient being resides in hell. Linda Weaver Horton, minister of the Unitarian Fellowship of Kelowna.

Kelowna gala for the SPCA The 5th annual Kelowna Gala for the B.C. SPCA, which coincided this year with the 100th anniversary of the Kelowna animal shelter, took place last Saturday at the Coast Capri Hotel. The event was a huge success, raising $138,000. Local philanthropist and SPCA supporter Tom Budd thanked the crowd for being so generous in support of the event, and celebrated that fact by matching the bid for a live auction item, a private tour of the SPCA wildlife rehabilitation centre on Vancouver Island; matching the donations for a family paw print fundrais- CRAIG DANIELL, chief executive officer of the SPCA, presents Shirley Kemble ing campaign; and volunteering to with the Kelowna SPCA Volunteer of theYear Award.

Improving adult care for type 2 diabetes Dale Bass CONTRIBUTOR
CONTRIBUTED
IN THIS photo is the clothing worn by an unidentified woman who was struck by a bus Sunday evening and remains in critical condition at Kelowna General Hospital.
Police trying to find out identity of hit pedestrian
An unidentified woman is in hospital with serious injuries after she was struck by a bus Sunday evening shortly after 5 p.m. Emergency crews responded to a report of a pedestrian motor vehicle incident on Springfield Road at Barlee Road. Police say a bus was making a left hand turn from Springfield onto Barlee when an elderly woman stumbled off the curb and was struck. The woman was rushed to hospital with serious, lifethreatening injuries. She remains in critical condition at the Kelowna General Hospital. The woman had nothing on her person to assist in her identification. She was wearing a dark purple hooded coat and is estimated to be between 60 and 70 years of age. Police believe that she may live in the immediate area of the accident. The investigation is ongoing, but rainy weather and poor visibility both appear to be contributing factors in the crash. Anyone with any information regarding the identity of the woman is asked to call the Central Okanagan Traffic Services at 250-980-5353.

For Lynn Kelsey, there is an obvious way for the medical profession to understand how to work with people who have diabetes. Think of the patient as the driver of a bus. Sometimes, the bus might have an L on it and the driver needs a co-pilot to help them along—but, they’re still the one doing the driving. They decide who comes along and who doesn’t. They know where they’re going—and the medical team working with them needs to do its part on the trip alongside the driver. “I’m in control,” Kelsey said. “I do need support, but I’m in control.” Kelsey, who lives in Penticton, is an advisor
to an Interior Health Authority 18-month project aimed at improving the system of care for adults with type 2 diabetes. It’s part of a threeyear plan the IHA has developed and involves patients, the medical system, pharmacists and other caregivers in Kamloops, Kelowna, Williams Lake and Lillooett. Overseen by Colleen Kennedy as director, with Dr. Maureen Clement handling the medical side, the project is looking at how the system can work better to meet the needs of, and fill the gaps experienced by, people with diabetes. That’s a large community in the IHA area, with an estimated 53,000 people being treated for the disease, 8,000 of them in Kamloops. That number doesn’t include adults who have
the disease, but have not been diagnosed, Kennedy said at a recent press conference during a twoday regional meeting of collaborative participants at Thompson Rivers University. Clement said a cornerstone of the approach is to have people with diabetes manage their own care, with support from those who provide that care. Kelsey said a hospital stay she had demonstrated how the health-care system needs to adjust to allow this to happen. Her insulin and glucose monitors were taken from her during the stay and the nurses took on those functions. “They were doing to me. They were doing for me,” Kelsey said. “But they didn’t consider me. “Nothing about me without me—that’s my view.”
TYPE 2 DIABETES: BASICS OF THE DISEASE
Your body gets energy by making glucose from foods like bread, potatoes, rice, pasta, milk and fruit. To use this glucose, your body needs insulin, which is a hormone that helps your body control the level of glucose (sugar) in your blood. Type 2 diabetes is a disease in which your pancreas does not produce enough insulin or your body does not properly

Support is best tribute to dogs
A
heart-breaking case that served to shine attention on animal cruelty around the world found closure in a tranquil setting just outside Penticton. Several dozen mourners gathered at the B.C. SPCA pet cemetery in Penticton last Friday to pay their respects to 56 sled dogs who were killed in Whistler in April 2010. The dogs were shot or had their throats slit as a result of a drop in demand for sled dog
tours following the 2010 Olympics. The mass killing launched the largest animal cruelty investigation in B.C. SPCA history, with the former general manager of Howling Dog Tours pleading guilty to causing unnecessary pain and suffering to animals. Bob Fawcett will be sentenced later this month. “We could not save you, but we could be your voice demanding justice for these unspeakable crimes,” the SPCA’s
Marcie Moriarty said during the Penticton ceremony. Although incidents like the mass killing are thankfully rare, the suffering and neglect of helpless animals is all too common. And it is these cases where our attention is most needed. “It has opened our eyes to the lack of penalty there is for the abuse that happens to animals. We hope this case in particular will set things in motion to change things,” said Phil Jensen, an SPCA volunteer who trav-
elled from his home in Chilliwack for the memorial service. While Friday was a time to mourn the cruel fate suffered by those 56 dogs, now is the time to focus our efforts on bringing stricter penalties for those found guilty of abuse and pledging our support for programs that provide comfort to animals in distress. Because it is that support that will be the greatest tribute we can give to those 56 dogs who have touched the hearts of so many of us.

Neighbourhood ‘beast’ gives a twitch at U.S. election time

As much as we like that, one is affected by every twitch to differentiate ourselves from Amerand grunt.” icans, we are so heavily influenced by And despite its flagging economy the United States in this country, we of late, and its loss of stature in the
eyes of many around the world thanks in large part to two wars and its preoccupation with security since 9-11, Trudeau’s analogy is as pertinent today as it was 43 years ago. The world, rightly or wrongly, still looks to the U.S. for leadership on a litany of issues at a myriad of levels. Anytime a conflict breaks out anywhere in the world, the first response from the international community tends to be: “what will the U.S. do?” And for the U.S. it’s a no-win position to be in. If it responds, some view it as bullying; if it doesn’t, others accuse the country of not caring. But when you are, arguably, the last remaining super power—the
Chinese may argue that point—you have a responsibility few other countries are viewed as having. You are considered the international cop, the friend, the foe and even a benevolent dictator by some. But it’s not just issues of war and peace. Banking problems prompt questions about the effect on Wall Street. Trade problems pose questions about economic relationships with the U.S. The brass ring for many seems to be acceptance and success in the U.S. In Canada, our collective national economic gaze is still directed southward. Sure, we occasionally glance to the east with the emergence of China’s middle class up-and-com-
ing consumeristas. But despite its current economic woes, it’s still a material world south of the 49th parallel. Americans are still the kings and queens of consumerism. And, because of that, everyone wants a piece of the U.S. market. So every four years, when the job of becoming the most powerful person in the world goes up for grabs, the rest of the world pays attention. The winner of the White House has more of an effect on our lives than we may realize—from how we travel to how much we pay for basic commodities. We may not always like what they do in Washington, but we need to pay attention.

LETTERS ▼ SCHOOL STRATEGIC PLAN
Forum muted any open discussion To the editor: I would like to express some thoughts on the “open” meeting that was recently held in Lake Country regarding the September 2013 move of Grade 7 children into the current George Elliot Secondary School, which is part of the School Disrict 23 Long Term Facility Plan. The meeting started out with the superintendant discussing who else would be speaking at the meeting. Right from the start, you could tell there was going to be more output from the school district than what would be allowed from parents in at-
tendance. The meeting had a continuous bombardment of “stats” from the school district, which included stats from a group covering North America as a whole. Sorry, but Lake Country is a tiny part with its own needs and challenges to be included with the rest of North America. Several of us parents continued to notice all of the contradictions that kept coming up from the speakers, but as the superintendant said, “You don’t have to take notes tonight as all of the information will be on the website tomorrow.” I hope people did take
note of all of the items that did not make sense, from sending the children across the major highway to the school district not having a plan in place for busing the students from their current school catchment area down to the high school several more kilometers away. Pretty soon into the meeting, this just sounded like they were trying to sell us something. I guess they are with this big plan, which is not really a long-term facility plan but a plan that can change at any time the school district sees fit. Even the school district said the associated costs are about the same
for putting in a middle school now in Lake Country or sending the 11-yearold children to school with the 17 and 18 year-olds, and then building a middle school later. At the end of the presentation, the superintendant’s voice became quite loud and for a better word “pushy.” He sounded like a bully trying to tell us these were our options and he would “allow” us to speak. At that point the administrators divided the room into several sections for people to stay and ask questions and voice opinions. At that point, several of
us felt again like we were in kindergarten. Could they not handle hearing from the parents and public as a whole room with a common interest? I am sure everyone there would have wanted to hear everyone else’s comments and concerns, not the most productive way to hold an “open” meeting. Maybe that was the whole point—to only make it productive from the school district’s point of view. Kim Glavin, parent of a Grade 6 student , Lake Country

▼ BINDING ARBITRATION
NHL can make a deal Trade deal raises
To the editor: The National Hockey League is not just about owners and players and the division of billions of dollars, it is the pinnacle of Canada’s national sport. It is time to cast aside mean spiritedness and greed. There are a myriad of small businesses, owners, workers and support organizations which depend on revenue received from this sport to stay in business and in many cases to put food on the table and pay the mortgage. Not to mention the hockey-loving public who have been cheated out of the opportunity to watch the world’s greatest sport played by the world’s best players. This impasse must stop. Both sides have dug
in waiting for the other side to blink. But they don’t have to blink. There is another solution which saves face for both parties and gets the season underway. I speak of binding arbitration. The final and best position taken to date by each side is presented to a single arbitrator. He or she will convene the arbitration forthwith and deliver his or decision shortly thereafter. As the season has been postponed until the end of November, there is ample time to get this accomplished. The arbitrator should be a well respected and experienced individual that both sides can agree upon—perhaps a former judge of the Supreme Court of Canada such as
Frank Iacobucci. No blinking and neither side has given in. The impasse is over ‘tout suite’ and the players are back on the ice. Binding arbitration is used on a daily basis in business and other disputes because it has been recognized as a very effective and efficient way of resolving disputes. In this case, there is a highly compelling need for it. Come on, you billionaires and millionaires. Instruct your reps to agree to binding arbitration. The game and all those who depend on it and those who love it have suffered enough. Walley Lightbody, Kelowna
NHL needs to reduce teams To the editor: Can you imagine the NHL reduced to 11 teams in Canada, and 12 teams in the USA? There would be more excitement from good hockey games not seen in years, plus a ticket would be worth the price they charge because of the quality of play. Tickets could remain at today’s prices but the game quality would improve immensely, the teams would save money by not having to pay border-line players millions of dollars just to fill out their rosters, more fans would watch more games on TV and ratings would be higher. On the down side, 426 borderline players would be out of the league. However, the teams that are left would make money or die in the marketplace. There would be no need for successful teams to financially support the
weaker franchises. Players not good enough for the NHL would be sent to the American Hockey League, which would enhance the quality of play in that league Fewer teams in the NHL means fewer junior players would go pro early, allowing them to complete their junior club eligibility and the junior clubs in turn could perhaps make a change to allow more than three 20-year-olds on their rosters. This way, no one loses. Everything improves from the NHL, to AHL to the junior ranks. Well, there would be one loser, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman’s ego. But under this idea, the Stanley Cup could be a final between a team from Canada and a U.S. team. Wouldn’t that be exciting to watch? I am shocked that Don Cherry has not pushed this idea to hell and back Ron Renneberg, West Kelowna
many concerns To the editor: Perhaps my letter is adding to the dissent expressed to such as you by thousands of others who decry this FIPA (Canada-China Foreign Investment Promotion and Protection Agreement) and the government that has pushed very secretly for its execution? Under FIPA, Chinese companies can sue Canadian governments—federal, provincial, territorial or municipal—in secret tribunals outside the Canadian court system if those governments do anything that would limit the companies’ profits in Canada. This fact is verified by the Minister of International Trade in a technical briefing to Elizabeth May on Oct. 24, 2012. She added this to the public record when addressing the Speaker in the House of Commons. In stark contrast to the NAFTA, where cancellation could be achieved in six months, this FIPA would lock Canada in to the proposed agreement for 15 years, a one-sided agreement if ever there was one. It is to be hoped that an 11th-hour postponement can be achieved in recognition of the strong public outcry such that a more equitable agreement can be drafted. Your readers can contact their MP and their mayor to express their views on this important departure from parliamentary procedure, such as the drafting of this agreement that has hardly seen the light of day as it progressed towards execution. Time is of the essence, people. Ronald W. Haslock,West Kelowna

Golf courses need defibrillators on hand
Lack of service at service stations
To the editor: I died on the golf course. Yes, I had a heart attack while golfing. No warnings. With the loss of oxygen to the brain all memory of the day, the week are gone. I would not be reporting this event without being extremely fortunate two fellows who knew CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) were also golfing and volunteered their services. They observed the patient, yours truly, was not breathing plus no pulse. This golfer was finished…it appeared.
BOB VEDAN “I was first on the scene and found Ken Henderson unresponsive, without a pulse and not breathing. I had someone call 911 on my cell phone and started CPR chest compressions on him immediately.
I asked a golf course employee to get the defibrillators from the clubhouse and he informed me that they didn’t have one. “Jim Lotwin arrived shortly and we continued with two men CPR until the ambulance arrived at which time they took over and used their defibrillator on him. This stabilized him and they took him to the hospital. “Ken is a lucky man. I have met him, his wife, son, daughter-in-law and granddaughter since. They are wonderful people and I feel humbled that we were able to help him in a situation that could have been much worse. “It surprised me that the golf course did not have defibrillators. I’m hoping that changes. I’m hoping that Ken’s story encourages more people to become qualified in CPR. It saves lives.”
JAMES LOTWIN “While playing at a golf tournament I was alerted by a fellow golfer that there was a golfer dead on the 12th hole. I thought that there was a chance that I could maybe give a hand as I had previous experience in this kind of thing. “Upon arriving I observed several men looking at a man on the ground who was not breathing, had no pulse and his eyes were open and at the back of his head. “He had been like that for a least 10 minutes and was clearly dead. There was one man, who I later learned to be Bob (Vedan), giving chest compressions so I began to try to give him oxygen. That proved difficult as I could not get a proper seal over his mouth. “I then remembered
LUNCH
(from a CPR course) to tilt back his head and pinch off his nose. Quickly I was able to move my breath into his lungs as I saw his chest rise. “It felt to me as we were one. As we continued to do CPR, to our surprise, Ken took a breath on his own which was very exciting and encouraging. “With the sirens in the background I thought if we could just keep Ken taking a breath every once in a while, we might have a chance. “The firefighters along with the ambulance arrived (seven-professionals in all) took over and worked on Ken for 20 to 30 minutes, bringing him around enough to transport him to the hospital where he was quickly operated on. “I was fortunate to visit with Ken and his beautiful family and see firsthand how much he means to all of them. “And for me, this was an incredible gift of a life time; to be able to help an-
other come back to complete his journey that he came here for. “Ken has made a complete recovery (at least from the first time I met him) and the three of us are going to play in that same golf tournament next year together. “I don’t believe that this would have been possible if both Bob and I had not had some training in CPR. I also think that all places where public gather, especially seniors, an automatic defibrillator should be available.” I strongly recommend an AED (Automatic External Defibrillation) at all golf courses considering the many seniors golfing in their retirement. Plus, at least CPR training for all who work at these courses. As one very lucky guy, I plan to invest a few hours attending a CPR class this winter so that I would have the capability to help and possibly save a life. I feel it is the least I could do. Ken Henderson, West Kelowna
To the editor: Most published letters to the editor regarding gasoline complain about the continual rise of prices. I am old enough to remember when a gas station was not a “convenience” centre but was a service centre. A couple of years ago, my favourite downtown service station was closed —apparently that corner was required for traffic changes. Since then, I have found a service station in Lake Country and I am told there is another one in the West Kelowna area. But I live in Kelowna city center. So finally was directed to Lakeshore Road where staff gave service with a smile whenever I needed a gas fill-up. That station is now under-going renovations, so I am without help again. I think I speak for many people when I lament the lack of service. I have had knee sur-

gery that makes it painful for me to enter and exit my car. There are thousands of people in Kelowna with various health issues who are completely capable of driving but filling up their car can be a process. I have a friend who’s sister is 40 and has rheumatoid arthritis. Her hands are so weak that when she wants to fill her car, she has to take one of her children with her to do the actual pumping of the gas. This isn’t convenient for her or her children. How nice it was when a smiling face offered to fill my gas tank, check my oil, noted if my tires needed air, and made sure my windows were clean. Now that the cold weather is coming, it is doubly painful for our older joints to enter and exit our vehicles. Think of your sweet grandma who bakes your favourite cookies. She now has to stand outside in the snow and wind struggling with those temperamental hoses and pumps. Or, the young mom who has a little baby in a car seat? Leaving the little one alone while she may have to run into the store to pay if she has cash and not want to take the baby out in the cold anymore than she has too. Since prices are already ridiculously high, a small rise to each litre (a portion of a penny) would more than cover the cost of providing service. Perhaps this service would even reduce frustration and road rage. What is wrong with the gasoline companies? Young people, as well as retirees, would love to have a job helping customers at a service station. I hope we will soon be having a friendly, helpful stop when it is necessary to “fill her up, please.” Margaret Wort, Kelowna

Dishing the dirt on organic produce Chances are you know someone with type 2 diabetes. That someone may even be you. Currently more than 3 million Canadians have type 2 diabetes. That number is expected to grow to just under 4 million by 2018. Genetics and lifestyle play a large role in the development of this serious health condition. Diabetes increases your risk of heart disease, kidney failure, blindness, nerve damage, and even erectile dysfunction. Making a few lifestyle changes can dramatically lower the chances of developing type 2 diabetes. Take these three important steps to reduce your risk. Get moving. Aim for 30 minutes of activity a day. Getting active doesn’t have to mean starting an exercise class or joining a gym. Choose activities that you enjoy or ones that you can do as a family - rake leaves, walk your kids to school, go for a bike ride after supper, or dance the night away! Maintain a healthy weight. Extra weight around the belly area is a risk factor for diabetes. Even a modest amount of weight loss can reduce your risk. Speak with your health care professional about a healthy weight loss goal and ways to achieve it. Eat well. Have foods from at least three of the four food groups at each meal. Fill half your plate at supper with vegetables, a quarter with a protein (from the meat and alternatives group) and the other quarter with a starch (from the grain products group). Drink low-fat

Aim for two servings of fish each week and choose low fat meats like extra lean beef, turkey, and skinless chicken. Try cooking with beans, lentils, and tofu. These meat alternatives are inexpensive and have many health benefits. Lastly, cut out sugary drinks like soda. Sugary drinks provide extra calories and do not fill you up.

Three steps
TIPS FOR TWEEN BONDING
If your tween is already rolling her eyes at you and treating you as if you’re so, like, not cool, you might want to pull a few time-tested tricks out of your fanny pack. (“So not cool, Mom!”) “The switch over from having a child who adores you to a pre-teen who wants nothing to do with you can feel sudden,” says Jennifer Kolari, child psychologist and author of Connected Parenting. “All of a sudden it seems they’re arguing with you, slamming doors all the time and getting into a negative cycle.” At Taking an Educated Approach to Learning, a recent conference hosted by KMT (The Learning Group) in Toronto, Jennifer explained how parents might start to notice this behaviour when their child turns nine or 10. First, their hormones are changing as they begin to turn from kids into adults. Then there are the lessons they’re getting from the media. “You can’t find a show on TV that has adults who aren’t morons,” says Jennifer. “Parents are easily tricked and kids solve the problems. Sometimes there is a strange absence of adults, even in kids’ shows. We see kids talking to adults in horrible ways and there is a sense that adults are there to serve them.” We start to assume it’s normal preteen behaviour when a child acts out or treats us with disrespect, but
Be the person your tween wants to be with. They don’t want to be with a nag. They want to be with someone who listens and who comforts them. Remind them of their baby years. Look through photo albums and reminisce about when they were a baby – even for just a few minutes every so often. It will help draw your kids back to you. Then, when you have to correct their behaviour, they will know it comes from a place of love. Make a date with your kids. Parents tend to place an emphasis on ensuring their kids have a wide social circle, but there is nothing wrong with making sure you’re part of that circle. It’s how you stay close to them. If you’re always farming them out to neighbours or play dates, it may come at a cost. You want your kids to orient themselves around you, not their friends. Ditch the tantrums. When you get upset, it’s easy to yell and say things you don’t mean. Try to be the parent you want to be – this means being neutral and respectful when you’re correcting their behaviour. You want your tween to go away reflecting on how they behaved, not how you behaved. Give your kids a job. Everyone needs a sense of purpose and responsibility in the family. Talk to them about becoming adults and ask them to watch their sibling or be in charge of taking out the garbage once a week. Talk to your kids. Remind them you are there if they want to discuss things they are seeing in the media or around them. Put them to bed. When kids get older they don’t need you to tuck them in, yet bedtime is one of the best times to talk to your kids. Pop in on them once in a while to say good night and ask them about their day.

▼ COURT RULING
Regional tourism strategy What is so private about computer unveiled at conference misuse in the workplace? After two years of intensive discussions, consultation and research with hundreds of tourism stakeholders, the Thompson Okanagan Tourism Association has launched a 10-year regional tourism strategy. Called Embracing Our Potential, the strategic plan outlines enhancement of the visiting experience for tourists through a regional partnership rather than competitive approach . The study was introduced at the tourism day conference put on by TOTA at the Sparkling Hill Resort in Vernon last Friday. While tourism is a key industry, generating revenues of $1.7 billion for the
region, it remains highly seasonal—a key challenge that the strategy has sought to address. The result of an intensive industry-led process, Embracing Our Potential identifies a new coordinated approach to strengthening the industry and positioning the region firmly on the world stage of ‘must visit’ destinations. TOTA chief executive officer Glenn Mandziuk said, “We are known too much as a ‘sun and beaches’ destination. We want to create exceptional experiences that will draw visitors here every month of the year.” The level of cooperation and the encompassing scope of the endorsements behind this new
strategy are unprecedented within the region, and is a first for any regional tourism association within the province. Mandziuk believes tourist organizations are taking to heart new ideas that show cooperation is essential for the region and individuals businesses to succeed. He explained that experiences are more than just a fabulous product or service offered by an individual company. “Ten years from now,” said Mandziuk, “the Thompson Okanagan will be seen as a year-round destination with a unique image. People will want to come here because they’ll see it as authentic and there will be no place quite like it.”

L
ast week, my column addressed the reasons of the Supreme Court of Canada relating to employees’ use of their employer’s computers for nonwork purposes. Employers may have been left scratching their heads by the court’s thoughts on this topic. The court, in a situation involving a teacher who was charged criminally with possession of child pornography and unauthorized use of a computer, seemed to determine that employees have some rights of privacy over personal data they store on workplace computers. Among other things, the court stated: “While workplace policies and practices may diminish an individual’s expectation of privacy in a work computer, these sorts of operational realities do not in themselves remove the expectation entirely…” I say that the court “seemed” to recognize a right of privacy because those reasons were given in the criminal context, to which Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms applies. But the Charter does not apply when there is no governmental actor involved, so the great majority of employer-employee relationships are beyond its reach. Time will tell whether the court’s comments will be extended to private as well as public employment relationships. Critically, the court made the following statements. “(O)perational realities may diminish the expectation of privacy that reasonable employees might otherwise have in their personal information. “Even as modified by practice, however, written policies are not determinative of a person’s reasonable expectation of privacy. “Whatever the (employer’s) policies state, one must consider the to-

Entrepreneurial thinking helps inspire creative results
I
t seems from all the research literature available that no matter what kind of organization—from small companies to home-based businesses to large corporations—employees can become entrepreneurialstyle owners. They can be responsible for more than just keeping a job, they’re emotionally and intellectually vested in making every minute count toward achieving their goals of the organization created and their own complementary career aspirations.
ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT
Joel Young With an entrepreneurial mind, they are driven more by results than routine. Both the company created and the individual entrepreneur may reap immediate benefits in profit, performance, and sense of purpose when people are encouraged
and taught to use their ingenuity, invest themselves in their work, and expect exponential results for their effort. Let’s take a few moments and bring in the dimension of entrepreneurial leadership into the mix of today’s column. Because a huge part of becoming an entrepreneurial leader is learning to simplify complexity so that your entrepreneurial team members or personnel as is the case, can act with self-confidence in the tasks assigned to them and with the innovative and creative juic-
es that one might logically expect given the atmosphere of new venture inspiration. So how will you know that the entrepreneurial mind has kicked in and taken hold? Guess what, I have come to the realization that you’ll know when you begin to think and act like the unusual people we might call habitual entrepreneurs. These are the entrepreneurs who have made careers out of creating new ventures, some working within existing businesses and some in independent start-ups.
They all have in common finely honed skills in forging the beguiling entrepreneurial opportunity from uncertainty. My research over the years has taught me and distilled my observations somewhat of this entrepreneurial mind-set. Our point is to attempt in our journey to recognize how they think, how they behave and exactly what it is they do so extremely well. They truly capitalize on uncertainty rather than avoid it, and create simplicity where others see complexity. They embrace learn-
ing that comes from taking calculated risks. These special entrepreneur types, as I might call them, recognize that when opportunities are fleeting, it is sometimes more expensive to be slow rather than to be wrong. As a consequence of this, they will find solutions that are “roughly right” it seems rather than consume time developing an analytically correct but a lot slower answer to a perceived issue item. Since writing this column and meeting and interviewing a few hundred existing and aspiring en-

trepreneurs, I can safely say this item is extremely predominant. However, this special grouping of the entrepreneur has an immense amount of insight and experience to offer you and me. They passionately seek new opportunities in a wide range of paths. They pursue opportunities with enormous discipline, which allow us tremendous learning through observation. They pursue only the very best opportunities and avoid exhausting themselves by simply chasing. They focus on execution, that is to say—taking action toward results instead of analyzing every step along the way to its death. Yet they are very adaptive to change directions if required in exploiting the best opportunity for them. And lastly to me, they engage the energies of absolutely everyone within their domain, involving people both internally and externally to their sphere of reference in pursuit of the dream opportunity for them They are excellent at creating and sustaining networks of relationships rather than going it alone, making the most of the intellectual and other resources offered in their journey and, in turn, helping those people to achieve their goals as well These are some of the absolute keys to the entrepreneurial mind that I have uncovered through my research. They will unlock the potential of people working today, and open the doors of unlimited possibility in their worlds for the future. Join them won’t you?

SENIORS Plan to connect
▼ FALL PREVENTION
and commit in retirement
M
aybe you are retired already, or just getting close to retirement. Are you beginning to wonder what you will do with yourself in all that spare time you are finally going to have? While some eagerly anticipate this change in pace, many seniors do not look forward to it. Regardless of where FITNESS FOR you fall in this spectrum, SENIORS the truth is that you can’t make your job your only focus and commitment in life, because you won’t always have it. Dr. Henry Lodge, coBobbi author of Younger Next Kittle Year, maintains that it’s a good idea to plan for the retirement years, socially and emotionally. Now is the time to begin preparing for this big change, building new networks of friends, and commitments that will be there when your job ends. Find projects to do and to keep working on. Volunteer work is one of the most satisfying things you can do—society would be at a loss without our seniors who devote so much time to volunteering. Cultivate friendships and don’t neglect social activities. Your mom was right—be friendly if you want to have friends. Don’t be afraid to reach out to others. You have much to offer, and much to gain in return. Have you always been curious about something? Now is the time to take a class. Learn to dance. Join a bird-watching group. Learn a foreign language in order to prepare for that trip you have always wanted to take, but never had the time. Take up exotic cooking, join a book club, or learn an instrument. If you are married, think about creating a new life with your partner. Instead of focusing on what’s wrong with him or her, focus on what’s right. What are their good and strong points? Focus on building memories together. Your relationship can grow even deeper as you head towards your golden years together. Explore a common interest, or develop a new one. Ask questions, research, and act on those interests. Speaking of partners, we are mammals, created to cuddle. Human contact and intimacy is critical to good health. Any mammalian contact helps. A recent study on heart attack victims kept track of who did and didn’t have a dog, with the non-dog owners six times as likely to die of a second heart attack. Another study showed that isolated/single men were four times more likely to have a second heart attack than married/connected men. Consider the returns from connecting and committing to relationships in this third portion of your life. Life is meant to be lived to the full, not simply endured. If you are fortunate enough to live in Canada, you are already more fortunate than many in this world.

Providing safer living for local seniors With the majority of accidental deaths among seniors aged 75 and older resulting from falls, fall prevention has become an increasingly important issue in Kelowna. Nurse Next Door, a leading provider of homecare in Kelowna, is giving back to the community it serves through its annual Fall Prevention Week by offering free home safety inspections to local seniors. Statistics regarding senior falls are alarming. In 2010, the direct medical cost of senior falls in North America was $30 billion. One in three people over the age of 65 fall each year and 85 per cent of injury-related hospital admissions in seniors are the result of falls. Also notable is that 90 per cent of hip fractures are the result of falls and 20 per cent of seniors who suffer a hip fracture from a fall die within one year. The most striking fact is that the majority of senior falls are actually preventable. The Nurse Next Door’s Fall Prevention Program sends staff trained in fall prevention into local homes to conduct free home safety assessments for seniors with the aim to educate and help families make their homes safer for seniors. “We are making the lives of local seniors safer by checking their homes for common fall hazards,” said Mechal Corbett, owner of Nurse Next Door in Kelowna. “Our goal is to offer this free program to 100 seniors in our communi-
ANTS? 250-826-8430
ty and ensure that none of these individuals end up in the hospital this winter due to a preventable fall.” Common causes for falls include: • Area or scatter rugs • Improper footwear • Lack of grab bars or
hand rails • Poor lighting • Pet toys, dishes and other animal related items • Lack of rubber mats in bath tubs. “Our home safety assessment allows us to show seniors how to make
their homes safer by minimizing risks,” said Corbett. Nurse Next Door’s local Fall Prevention Week is part of a national program that will be running in communities across Canada and the United
States. The program, now in its eighth year, has already reached hundreds of seniors across the country. For more information visit the website www. nursenextdoor.com or call 250-450-9750.

SPORTS Rockets reload to meet defending champs Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
The Kelowna Rockets didn’t have to wait long for a chance to return the favour. Just 10 days after losing to the Oil Kings in Edmonton, the Rockets will get reacquainted with the defending WHL champs when the teams meet for the second and final time this season. Face off Wednesday at Prospera Place is 7 p.m. Since that 5-3 setback in Edmonton, the Rockets have won three straight, including an impressive 3-0 shutout of the Canadian Hockey League’s No. 1 team last Thursday. Veteran forward Zach Franko said the club’s last defeat is still fresh on the Rockets’ minds. “It’s what you want, you want a chance to play (the Oil Kings) again as soon as possible and prove you can play with them,” said Franko who has 17 points in 16 games this season. “I think we showed everyone with the
way we played Kamloops that we’re up with the top teams. Edmonton is just as good or maybe even better (than Kamloops) so we’re excited to see how we measure up against them.” Rockets head coach Ryan Huska said his Rockets didn’t play poorly in Edmonton, but will need to be better on Wednesday. “(Edmonton) carried a lot of tempo and the play in that game, and they capitalized on their chances,” said Huska. “We’ll need to bring our tempo up to a higher level.” The Rockets (10-6-11) are coming off back-toback shutouts of their opponents for the first time since March 2010. On Thursday, Kelowna rubbed out the Blazers 3-0 as Jordon Cooke posted his third clean sheet of the season. On Saturday, Jackson Whistle registered his second career shutout as Kelowna blanked Prince George 5-0. “Our goaltend-
ers played well in both games, and you don’t get shutouts unless you have team commitment,” said Huska. “You don’t see a lot of individual play, the guys are playing responsible two-way hockey and it’s paying off.” Meanwhile, forward Tyrell Goulbourne’s first two goals of the season were the game winners against both Kamloops and Prince George. After a slow start, Huska said the 18-year-old forward’s game is rounding into form. “Early in the season Tyrell struggled, he was a healthy scratch a few times and he wasn’t moving his feet,” said Huska. “Now he’s working and skating, and he’s feeling good about his game. He’s playing well.” The Rockets will close out a four-game home stand Friday against the Red Deer Rebels.

Mixed weekend for Okanagan Rockets The Okanagan Rockets displayed both their best and worst in one unpredictable weekend of hockey. In a battle of two of the top teams in the B.C. Major Midget League at CNC, the Rockets took down the Cariboo Cougars 5-1 with a solid effort on Saturday afternoon. But on Sunday, a vastly different Okanagan squad put forth a lackluster effort en route to a stunning 8-0 loss.
The Cougars chased Rockets starting goalie Brenden Mills after scoring five goals on 17 shots. Reid Kilburn finished the contest for the Rockets who fall to 9-2-1 on the year. With the win, the Cougars improve to 11-30 and hold a three point lead over the Rockets in the BCMML standings, though the Rockets do hold two games in hand. “I’m embarrassed by this effort on home ice,”

A lack of scoring touch proved to be the West Kelowna Warriors’ undoing over the weekend as BCHL club dropped back-to-back games. Following a 4-2 loss to Salmon Arm on Friday, the Warriors came up empty on Sunday at home dropping a 2-0 contest to the Nanaimo Clippers. “We are not going to win many games if we don’t score some goals here, so we are certainly disappointed about that,” said Warriors coach and
GM Rylan Ferster. “I don’t know if we came ready to play.” The Warriors pressured the Clippers at times with 37 shots on goal but, as has been the case for the last five games (0-30-2), a lack of finish has been a problem. With the likes of Max French, Seb Lloyd and Ambrose Firkus sidelined, Fester said his club needs to find other ways to generate goals. “We have to get dirty in the paint and have an

Heat play Vikes tough but fall short UBC Okanagan didn’t manage a win on opening weekend of the Canada West men’s basketball season. But for at least one night, the Heat played step for step with one of the longtime powers in the CIS. After being blown out on Friday night by the host Victoria Vikes, UBCO responded with a much better effort on Saturday en route to a 71-66 loss. With injuries to Yassine Ghomari and Mitch Goodwin, the Heat battled through some early season adversity and played well. “Although leaving Victoria with a split would have been nice, we are encouraged by the focus and effort of (Saturday’s) game,” said Heat coach Pete Guarasci. “I think we’ve learned how hard we need to play to be effective in this league.” Kelowna product Azi Fahandeg-Sadi knocked down 19 points on 8-for-13 shooting for the Heat, Greet Gill added 17 points, and Landry
Ndayitwayeko chipped in 13 of his own as the Heat shot 45 per cent from the field. Despite the offensive outpouring the Heat were out-rebounded 40-27, which led to 16 second chance points for the Vikes. On Friday night, UBCO’s scored just 19 points in the second half in a 7348 loss to UVic. Fahandeg-Sadi scored a third of the Heat’s points with 16, while adding five rebounds. The Heat will play their home openers this weekend against the Mount Royal Cougars. The games will tip off at 8 p.m. Friday and 7 p.m. Saturday.
HEAT WOMEN The UBC Okanagan squad has opened the new Canada West season at 0-2 after a pair of losses in Victortia. On Friday, the Vikes scored 28 first-quarter points on the way to a 8769 win. Roz Huber was a force in a losing cause for the
Heat with 21 points and 11 rebounds. Unfortuanely for the Heat the fifth-year post player went down with a high ankle sprain and was forced to sit out Saturday’s game which the Vikes won 82-53. Sarah Allison and Madison Kaneda each scored 12 points for the Heat, while Emily Kanester added eight. However, without Huber, the Vikes were able to dominate the paint. Victoria scored 44 points in the paint to the Heat’s 22, which proved to be the difference in the game. “We just could not hit a shot,” said Heat guard Melissa Irish. “But we battled through adversity. The second half of tonight’s game is something we can draw on.” The Heat shot 17 per cent better from the field in the second half than in the first. The Heat women return to action this Friday at 6 p.m. at UBCO against Mount Royal. The teams will meet again Saturday at 5 p.m.

Salahor is Chiefs’ points leader Chiefs from A20
overtime session as the Chiefs edged the Princeton Posse 3-2. On Saturday, Kelowna
dropped a 3-2 decision to the hometown Kamloops Storm. Salahor had two assists in the loss and now leads the Chiefs with sev-
en goals and 16 assists in 18 games. The Chiefs return to action Thursday night when they visit the Chase Heat.

The UBC Okanagan Heat settled for a split with the University of Saskatchewan Huskies on the second weekend of the Canada West women’s volleyball season. On Friday, Steve Manuel’s Heat pushed their record to 3-0 with a convincing four-set win (2513, 24-26, 25-6, 25-19) over the Huskies. Rookie Emily Oxland played the entire game for the Heat as setter, dishing out 38 assists in the fourset win. Although technically not a rookie, Katie Wuttunee played a solid game at middle with four block assists and had five kills for the Heat. Wuttunee is new to the Heat but played last year at Capilano University and is in her second year of eligibility. Fourth-year middle Kendra Wayling had 10 kills and 16 digs, while Myrte Schön also had a big game with 13 kills and 11 digs. On Saturday, the Heat were unable to match their level of play from the previous night as Saskatchewan returned the favour, winning 3-1 (25-22, 1825, 25-22, 25-19.)
“We just didn’t execute (Saturday),” explained Heat head coach Steve Manuel. “We served them too easy and we made too many errors.” The Heat finished the match with 43 errors. On the upside, Katy Klomps continued her dominating play, as the middle from Surrey finished the game with nine kills, two solo blocks and two block assists. Schön tallied 10 kills, and rookie Kaitlynn Given added six kills and four digs in a losing effort for the Heat. The Heat (3-1) currently shares second spot in Canada West with three other teams. This weekend, UBCO will take to the road when they visit Mount Royal.
HEAT MEN The UBC Okanagan men’s squad slipped to 0-4 to start the season after a sweep at the hands of the Saskatchewan Huskies over the weekend in Kelowna. The matches were played a day late, Saturday and Sunday, due to the Huskies flight out of Saskatoon being cancelled Friday.
Clearly missing the presence of Canada West all-star Nate Speijer—recovering from an appendectomy—the Heat lost in four sets on Saturday night (23-25,25-14,2520,25-22). Riley McFarland and Greg Niemantsverdriet carried the offensive workload for the Heat throughout the game, combining for 97 total kill attempts, putting down 16 and 15 respectively. On Sunday, the Huskies swept the Heat 3-0 (25-21, 25-20, 25-19). One bright spot in an otherwise difficult match was the setting. “Kristof (Schlagintweit) did an excellent job setting,” commented Heat head coach Greg Poitras. “The adversity that he’s under in having to run plays and make decisions on the fly, it’s incredible that he can do so and still have the set quality. I’m pretty happy about that.” Niemantsverdriet led the Heat with 12 kills and contributed four digs. The Heat will be in Calgary this weekend for two matches against the Mount Royal Cougars.
▼ HIGH SCHOOL
Owls, Voodoos in Vancouver for playoffs The Kelowna Owls and Rutland Voodoos will head to Vancouver this weekend for the opening round of the B.C. high school football playoffs. On Saturday afternoon at B.C. Place, KSS will take on the Notre Dame Jugglers, while at the Voodoos (2-4) will meet the West Vancouver Highlanders (2-4). The winners will move on to the quarterfinal round. The Owls finished the regular season at 4-2 in the Okanagan AAA Conference, while the Jugglers went 1-5 in the tough Western Conference. “I do know that they’re big and they have some speed,” Owls coach Shane Sommerfeld said of Notre
Dame. “I also definitely think they’re beatable.” The Owls closed out the regular season Friday with a 28-2 victory over the Voodoos. Mitchell Weir scored a pair of majors for KSS, while Nathan Brown and Hudsen Anderson added one apiece and quarterback Shawn Gordon passed for 135 yards. On defense, Nathan Eyre had four tackles and two sacks, while Eli Haynes had five tackles and an interception.
BEARS FIRST ROUND BYE Thanks to a 6-0 record and a first-place finish in the Okanagan AAA Conference, the Mt. Boucherie Bears will have a week to rest, recuperate and pre-
pare for the quarterfinals. The Bears will host the winner of this weekend’s matchup between Van College and Lord Tweedsmuir Nov. 17 on the turf at CNC. Boucherie closed out the regular season with a 41-0 win over Salmon Arm Friday. Peter Briker scored early on a 90-yard punt return to put the Bears ahead to stay. Spencer Humes and Cam Spence each caught TD passes from Josiah Joseph, while Joseph ran one in from three yards out and Curtis Urlacher had a 21-yard major from the fullback position. Scott Vincent scored the other TD on a 13-yard fumble recovery return.

Don’t worry, learn how to be happy A free public lecture on the science of happiness and increasing your own positive wellbeing will take place tonight (Nov. 6) at the UBC Okanagan campus. Mark Holder, associate professor of psychology at the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences, will give the presentation at the Rotary Centre for the Arts (Mary Irwin Theatre), 7 p.m. An award-winning teacher and researcher, Holder studies the science of happiness, identifying factors that contribute to happiness in children and the investigation of strategies to enhance happiness in adults. Medicine and psychology have traditionally focused on dysfunction and illness, such as diagnosing what is wrong with people then prescribing how to fix their problems. Re-
cently, science has placed an increased emphasis on positive well-being, helping determine what is right with people and how to promote that. Holder leads a research team investigating the science of happiness. With humor and knowledge, he outlines recent research findings related to human flourishing, spirituality, optimism, personal relationships and life satisfaction. Holder’s lecture is among the activities of Thrive Week at the UBC Okanagan campus. Thrive is a week of events encouraging the UBC community to invest in mental wellbeing.

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Gwendolyn Rita Toope (Reid) at 81 yrs. Gwen was born in Green’s Harbour, Newfoundland, where she grew up and where she also met the love of her life, Doug. They were married in 1950 and began their life’s adventure. Because of Doug’s work, they resided in many places in Newfoundland: Gander, Corner Brook, Mount Pearl, Pasadena and Springdale. Gwen was always very active in her community with Kinettes, curling, dancing and square dancing. She and Doug made, and retained, many friends in each town, and when retirement took them to British Columbia in 1985, they returned to Newfoundland almost every summer to visit with family and friends. They lived in Qualicum Beach for a short time and then moved to Parksville where Gwen and Doug became involved in curling, dance, and the Seniors’ Center. In 2001 Gwen and Doug moved to Kelowna. They joined square dancing and became very involved with the Seniors Centers’ dances and activities. Gwen was always instrumental in pursuing new friendships and activities and this kept her and Doug very busy. She loved to walk every day, usually going in excess of 5 km per walk. She received many curling medals and trophies during her curling years, and she was devoted to watching the Canadian national curling championships, rooting for Newfoundland all the way. Gwen had strong family beliefs, and devoted her life to caring for her husband and raising their children. In November of 2000 Gwen and Doug went on their dream vacation to Australia where they stayed for over 6 weeks enjoying the Gold Coast and many sights. Gwen was predeceased by her two brothers, Gordon (Phyllis) and John (Evelyne) and her two sisters, Jenny (Alex) and Olive (Stan) and finally, by her sweetheart, Doug, in 2005. She is survived by her sister, Shirley (Claude), her two sons, Lloyd (Maggie) and Terry (Janet) and her daughter, Linda (Rick). She is also survived by her three grandchildren, Shaun (Kera), Crista and Ashley (Michael), two step grandchildren, Rian (Susie) and Melissa, as well as three great-grandchildren, Terra and Marshall (Ashley) and Kai (Shaun) and three step great-grandchildren, Lewis and Levi (Rian) and Alma (Melissa). She passed peacefully away on October 27th with family at her side and holding her hand. She will be missed. Much thanks to all the staff at Hillside Village and to Dr. Goldberg for their enduring care through the ups and downs. A commemoration of Gwen’s (and Doug’s) life will be held with family and friends during the summer of 2013 in Newfoundland. In lieu of flowers, a donation may be made to the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. Arrangements entrusted to FISCHER’ S FUNERAL SERVICES & CREMATORIUM LTD., Salmon Arm, (250) 833-1129.

“Memories made to last”
Toll Free: 1-800-665-4143 (BC) She leaves behind to mourn her four children Wayne, Deanne (Marie), Kim (Louise) and Laurie (Tom) and grandchildren Christopher, Jeffery, Justin, Marina, Cameron, Liam and great-grandchild Finlay. She was the matriarch of our family and has left a huge hole in all our hearts. She also leaves behind family in Scotland. She lived a remarkable life in her 90 years on earth; she had many wonderful stories of her childhood growing up in Rutherglen, Scotland. She took a leap of faith leaving her beloved home in Scotland and moving to Canada as a war bride to start her new life, living on White Road for a time, moving up north to Beaton, Vernon and Fort St. James where her husband’s work took them, but soon moving back to Kelowna for good. She became a widower much too early, she was a single mother when it was not the norm and managed somehow to raise 4 children on her own. She always enjoyed helping others and would later go back to college in her 50’s to start a career with the Ministry of Social Services and Housing as a Financial Assistance Worker at the Rutland branch. Mum was never one to sit still, so after retirement she started to work with mentally challenged seniors in a group home and did that into her 80’s. Family was everything to Mum so her hobbies were few. She had a strong faith in God, which is why she made it through all the challenges life put in front of her. She left an imprint on everyone’s life who knew her. She was small in stature but larger than life, a feisty little Scotswoman. We are all left with many memories and a huge void in our hearts, gone but never forgotten. Miss you Mum.......always will A private family service was held on Sunday October 14, 2002 at Everden Rust Funeral Home. Condolences may be sent to the family via email Clan_Locke@telus.net

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen fast flavours Now, I have to admit right up front that I am a fan of Chef Michael Smith and his Food Network cooking shows. I like his casual attitude toward cooking, his advice to enjoy cooking rather than looking on it as a chore, and his emphasis on using fresh and local ingredients. He always encourages home cooks to use their own judgement about what flavours to combine, and to be inspired by what’s available and I heartily agree with that. Recipes for most dishes are guidelines, not prescriptions. So, when I received a copy of his latest book, Fast Flavours, published by Penguin Books, I was looking forward to browsing through it. The premise is that you can cook from scratch in much the same time it takes to order takeout or thaw some frozen dinner and it will taste far, far superior, will cost less and it will likely be better for you. So, most of the recipes can be made in 10 to 60 minutes, and there are some shortcuts suggested for most of them as well, like dividing meatloaf into muffin cups so it cooks faster, or using the barbecue or food processor. It’s divided into chapters such as salads, chicken, beef, pork & lamb, fish, pasta, vegetables, sides, treats and cocktails and there’s lots of information in addition to some delicious flavour pairings such as the two examples I’ve copied here. It’s a good cookbook for those who often have to cook a meal in a hurry, but are conscious of their family’s health, budget and would like to support local farmers. Those are some of the goals I support not only in this column, but also in my book, Jude’s Kitchen, which is available at Mosaic Books, along with other bookstores and many wineshops in the region.
JUDIE STEEVES / CAPITAL NEWS
Michael's Crazy Coleslaw Chef Michael Smith says using raw turnip adds a surprisingly snappy flavour to the traditional mix. Try to make the pieces as small as possible so they’ll be tender and mix easily. There's lots of bright colour in this mix.
DRESSING: 1 c. (250 ml) mayonnaise 1/2 c. (125 ml) green sweet pickle relish 1/2 c. (125 ml) cider vinegar 1/4 c. (60 ml) honey 2 tbsp. (30 ml) mustard 1 tbsp. (15 ml) hot sauce 1 tbsp. (15 ml) fennel seeds 1 tsp. (5 ml) celery seeds (opt) 1 tsp. (5 ml) salt
VEGETABLES: 1/2 head red cabbage
1 fennel bulb 1/2 turnip 1-2 large carrots 1 red bell pepper 6-8 radishes leaves from 1 bunch parsley Whisk together the dressing ingredients until smooth. Thinly slice or shred cabbage and fennel; peel and thinly slice or shred the turnip; shred carrots and radishes, seed and thinly slice pepper. Chop parsley leaves. Put all the vegetables into a festive salad bowl and toss with the dressing. Coleslaw is best after it rests for an hour or so, or overnight, before serving, but you can eat it right away. Serve and share and hope for leftovers. Serves 6-8 plus leftovers.
Caribbean Rice & Beans This is a very tasty, vegetarian option for a meal and with the beans in it, you won’t miss meat at the meal. If you must have meat, I’ll bet a spicy chorizo sausage would be nice cooked up, chopped and stirred into this just before serving. Try matching the Ganton & Larsen Prospect Winery Council’s Punch Bowl Sauvignon Blanc with this. It’s crisp freshness pairs well with this flavourful dish, and it’s a good buy. 2 tbsp. (30 ml) vegetable oil 1 red bell pepper 1 green bell pepper 1 onion 4 garlic cloves 1 c (250 ml) white rice 2 c. (500 ml) water 19 oz (540 ml) black beans 3 tbsp (45 ml) white vinegar 1 tbsp. (15 ml) dried oregano 1 tsp. (5 ml) ground allspice 1 tsp. (5 ml) salt
1 tsp. (5 ml) hot sauce 4 green onions Match a large pot with a tight-fitting lid and set it over medium-high heat. Splash in the oil. Dice peppers, chop onion, thinly slice garlic and slice green onions and set aside. When oil is hot, toss in the pepper, onions and garlic. Saute, shivering, shaking and stirring until the vegetables are softened, two or three minutes. Add the rice and stir it around for a moment or two, lightly oiling each grain Pour in the water, add the drained and rinsed beans and season with the vinegar, oregano, allspice, salt and hot sauce. Bring the works to a slow, steady simmer. Cover and cook until the rice is tender and the stew is delicious, about 20 minutes. Serve and share sprinkled with lots of green onions. Serves 4.

Some simple guidelines for readers of Jude's Kitchen There are some basics about my cooking that you should know about in using the recipes created for Jude’s Kitchen. *I mean a large egg when a recipe calls for an egg *usually, butter and margarine are interchangeable *usually, salt and pepper is added to your taste *I generally use sea salt
*fresh ingredients top frozen or canned *organic products are my first choice *wherever possible, I use whole grains, not processed *include a variety of them, when possible *wherever possible, I use fresh herbs *fewer quantities of dried herbs are needed than fresh
*I use extra virgin olive oil *I use grapeseed or olive oil to cook with *I don’t deep fry *feel free to substitute. I do *have fun in the kitchen *encourage others to as well
