Pedestrian hit on highway Morning Star Staff

The mid-afternoon sun is being blamed for an accident that sent a pedestrian to Vernon Jubilee Hospital Wednesday. RCMP responded to a report of a pedestrian hit in the crosswalk at the intersection of 32nd Street and 39th Avenue at 3:30 p.m. The driver of the car was travelling west on 39th Avenue when he turned left onto 32nd Street and struck what police describe as a middle-aged female pedestrian who was in the crosswalk. “The driver advised police he was unable to see the victim in the crosswalk due to the sun in his eyes,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. The woman suffered broken legs, and a broken left shoulder as a result of the accident. The 17-year-old driver from Vernon was issued a ticket for failing to yield to a pedestrian.

RCMP bust Cherryville grow-op Morning Star Staff

A true law enforcement team effort shut down a significant North Okanagan marijuana grow operation Wednesday. Police officers from the VernonNorth Okanagan RCMP detachment, air services division and the Lower Mainland’s Emergency Response Team (ERT), which is trained to search in confined spaces, attended a residence in the 1800 block of Highway 6 near Cherryville Wednesday morning. “The property was searched and the officers located one male suspect on the property,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. “They found a two-level confined space concrete bunker with a multiple stage growing

The RCMP used their new armoured vehicle in the bust of a grow-op in Cherryville Wednesday. operation.” Half of this operation, said Molendyk, was being powered by a generator, and the other half was being

powered by a Hydro connection. The concrete bunker was secured and the air quality of the area was checked by ERT members before this very sophisticated grow operation was able to be dismantled. Officers seized 4,608 plants. As part of the ongoing investigation, officers are looking into the origin of the generator. The suspect, a 33-year-old Kelowna man, is expected to face charges of production and possession for the purpose of trafficking. “The dismantling of this grow operation is part of the continuing commitment to our strategic priorities for the region in dealing with the production of marijuana,” said Molendyk.

At least one community leader believes there needs to be more police presence in Vernon’s primary park. With ongoing public concerns about safety and criminal activity, Coun. Patrick Nicol says there needs to be a community policing focus in Polson Park. “We have continuously, through the years, had issues there,” he said. “It’s a bit of a weakness we have because of the design (of the park). It’s not as lit as it could be.” Nicol raised concerns after an Aug. 20 incident in which an individual was stabbed in Polson Park. Police have determined that the attack was targeted, a suspect was arrested and the matter is Reg Burgess before the courts. Supt. Reg Burgess, with the RCMP, says he is aware of the concerns and design changes could perhaps be made. “We can look at ways to improve that. There can be scheduled patrols by bylaws (enforcement officers) and our members,” he said. Statistics show that Criminal Code cases rose 3.4 per cent in Vernon in the third quarter of 2012. This brings an end to six consecutive quarterly reductions. “It’s mostly theft of vehicles and theft from vehicles. We hope it’s a blip in the system,” said Burgess. During July to September, traffic fatalities (six) were down 40 per cent from 2011. Weekend foot patrols in the downtown core have wrapped up for the season but Burgess says they were successful. “Our members generated more than 225 hours of high visibility foot patrols in the downtown core, checking parks and crime hot spots,” he said. “Since the May long weekend, these patrols generated more than 100 licensed premises checks, 48 provincial charges, 29 warnings, 25 liquor files, four drug seizures, 10 street checks of unknown individuals, 36 arrests and 61 patrols of parks and beaches in the area.”

Lumby facility benefits from federal funds richard rolke Morning Star Staff

All of those itsy bitsy spiders will be staying dry in Lumby. Lumby Preschool students performed Itsy Bitsy Spider after hearing Wednesday that the federal government will fund replacement of the roof of the White Valley Community Centre. “One of our favourite things to do in the gym is ride bikes,”

said teacher Michelle Mulholland. The preschool, which is located inside the centre, also uses the main hall for Mother’s Day performances. Ottawa will provide $69,915 for a new roof and to also install energy-efficient lights inside. “It’s all about the energy in the community and people working together,” said Colin

Mayes, OkanaganShuswap MP, of why Lumby was selected. Mayes also points out that while the grant may not seem like a lot, that is a significant amount of money for small communities with limited budgets. “They don’t have industrial bases like Vernon or Salmon Arm.” Mayor Kevin Acton welcomes the federal

support. “It allows us to have buildings like this,” he said of the centre. “It’s over-used. It’s a struggle to try and get space in here for an event.” The total project cost is $135,000, with the remainder of the funds coming from the taxpayers of Lumby, Cherryville and rural Lumby. It’s anticipated the

roof will be replaced by the spring. “It’s not leaking but it’s getting time for a new one,” said Tannis Nelson, community development co-ordinator with the Regional District of North Okanagan. As for the new interior lights, it’s expected they will provide considerable benefits in the long run. “The non-energy

efficient ones are being discontinued and it’s estimated that with the

new lights, there could be $900 in savings a year,” said Nelson.

Internment mural planned for Vernon richard rolke Morning Star Staff

A dark chapter in Canadian history could eventually be portrayed in downtown Vernon. The City of Vernon has been asked to contribute funds to a mural that would focus on First World War internment camps, and particularly the camp set up at the current site of W.L. Seaton Secondary School. “The roots for Ukrainian families run deep in Vernon,” said

“This is an important story to tell our children.” — Michelle Loughery

of the Canadian First World War Internment Recognition Fund. One of Loughery’s uncles served in the local camp. “I need to tell the story. This is an important story to tell our children,” she said. An actual dollar amount has not been asked of the city and council has not made a decision yet. The initial budget for the Vernon mural is $19,000 but some funding is already in place from a variety of sources.

Little debate over purchasing park land richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Pressure to expand a park isn’t creating a lot of debate among Vernon politicians. There were no questions or comments after resident Randy Schellenberg made a pitch to city council Tuesday for the Greater Vernon Advisory Committee to buy 166 acres next to BX Ranch Park. In an interview after the

meeting, Coun. Bob Spiers insisted the issue is not being ignored. “It will be looked at in relation to all other capital requests,” said Spiers, who is a GVAC director. Any discussion, though, is on hold until restructuring of the regional parks and recreation function is completed. Schellenberg says the additional land would be ideal and

conforms to a 2004 parks and recreation master plan. “In Vernon, there are very few considerably sized parks,” he said. “This is an opportunity to make it into a destination park.” While the site is outside of Vernon boundaries, Schellenberg says the city would benefit from increased recreational opportunities for residents and tourists.

“The public should decide what the use should be,” he said when asked of potential activities there. The 166 acres would be five times larger than Polson Park. “If we don’t do anything, we will see more parcels carved off (for residential) until there is nothing left,” said Schellenberg. The price tag is $3.2 million.

Internment Recognition Fund and the lead artist would be Michelle Loughery, who is responsible for the heritage murals downtown. “I want to start it here,” said

Loughery of the project which will include murals across Canada. During the First World War, many former residents of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, including Ukrainians, were considered enemy aliens. They were rounded up into camps, and in some cases, provided forced labour for construction projects. “They opened up highways and built the national parks system,” said Andrea Malysh, a Vernon resident and executive director

There has been a change at the Downtown Vernon Association. With the recent resignation of newly hired David Hull, Louise Delaney has stepped into the

position of executive director. “It has been wonderful to know that so many merchants, organizations and city personnel are interested in making downtown the exciting and prosper-

ous hub that it continues to be,” she said. A long-time Vernon resident, Delaney was manager of the Salmon Arm Downtown Improvement Association.

Spall hires interim administrator RogeR Knox Morning Star Staff

A familiar name in North Okanagan governance has been named the interim chief administrative officer of Spallumcheen. Greg Betts, who served 15 years as the CAO for the Coldstream, and five years with the Regional District of North Okanagan – the last three as CAO – started his duties Thursday. “I think it’s an exciting opportunity to work with the community,” said Betts. “It’s a good staff to work with, the council looks like it’s progressive and I’m looking forward Greg Betts to helping them move forward.” Betts will work at the township office Tuesday through Thursday, and will be present at Monday night meetings. He is committed to finishing off a consulting contract with Enderby. Betts replaces Lynda Shykora, who was terminated by the township in October after nearly eight years on the job. “With Greg’s background in local government,

All hands on deck

arpenter, plumber, electrician, all-around handyman – I am none of these things, at least not yet. Aside from some so-so irrigation and gardening skills, about the only thing handy I can lay claim to is the Hoo-Hoo award I won for the shelving unit I built in Grade 10 woodwork. I did win a sweet set of Marples Blue Chip chisels for that little project, and still use them from time to time. So, as I begin life as a hobby farmer in Armstrong (Spallumcheen, technically speaking), I face a learning curve steeper than Enderby Cliffs. Our first big task (after a gargantuan four-day move) was to rebuild the Graeme Corbett rotting roof that covers the deck outside of our suite, which happens to be the new home of the Om Naturale herbal care product empire. The existing roofing material comprised some soggy chipboard underneath an aging tarp, covered by about three inches of pine needles. From that perspective, anything we did would be a huge improvement. Under the watchful eye of father-in-law Larry, we assembled a materials list (joist hangers, beams, plywood, felt, galvanized sheet metal etc., along with half a dozen mouse traps) and made a B-line to Shepherd’s Hardware to make our first big home improvement purchase. I suppose we could have paid someone to do the job, however, not only do we have to watch our money, but now that the job is (almost) done, I have a huge sense of satisfaction after having hauled my butt up the ladder and built it with Terryn and Larry. Also on the to-do list are a chicken coop, greenhouse, animal shelters and, once the farm

AT RANDOM

is fully operational, I’m guessing about a kilometre of post-and-wire fencing. We have only been in town for a couple weeks, but we have already discovered some real gems, like Shepherd’s. The Brown Derby has already become our go-to breakfast destination. Larry has been about a dozen times already, and the friendly British lady who runs it is always quick with a snappy comeback every time he tries to give her the gears. The Great Wall serves up a good Chinese smorgasbord, and it also turns out we reside in “the blue zone,” and are therefore within delivery range for JJ’s Pizza. My first official act was to splash out the $10 for a Co-op membership, so I now get a dividend whenever I buy gas. If life wasn’t hectic enough moving onto a 6.5-acre plot, we decided to add a new member to the Corbett-Thachuk fold – Bo, our new puppy. We had talked about getting a second pooch for the farm, to beef up security, so to speak. Having been through the whole puppy process before with London, we weren’t keen on a repeat. A younger rescue dog from the local animal shelter was more what we were thinking. However, when we heard our friend Urs’ Swiss mountain dog, Winston, had knocked up the neighbour’s border collie, we caved. Bo provides more entertainment value than Netflix, and there are a lot of perks to owning a nine-week-old puppy, but 4 a.m. potty sessions aren’t one of them. I had expected London’s maternal instincts to kick in when Bo arrived, but it turns out she has opted for the role of big sister/sparring partner. Tolerance might be an slight overstatement of our cat’s attitude towards him, but overall everyone seems to be settling in nicely to life on the farm.

A crisis in health care has been looming in Enderby for months, and now the situation has escalated. With three doctors already gone in the past nine months and another departing in January, there is the prospect of only one physician serving more than 7,000 residents. For some people, that will mean travelling to Vernon or Salmon Arm for appointments and that will be extremely difficult for those who don’t have vehicles or live in more rural settings. Additional pressure could also be placed on already overcrowded hospitals. Recruitment may pay off with at least one new doctor by August. But summer is a long ways off. The Interior Health Authority and the Ministry of Health must immediately establish a concrete plan to address the expected gap in service. The plan will involve interim doctors, but there must be a guarantee that they will be there consistently. MLA George Abbott, a former health minister, must also get directly involved in the process to ensure his constituents’ needs are addressed. For the long-term, aggressive recruitment is required to ensure that such a serious situation doesn’t arise again. Not only does that mean promoting Enderby as a great place to live, there have to be financial incentives. Specifically, the City of Enderby has asked the Ministry of Health to revisit how doctors are paid because there appears to be a discrepancy between Enderby and other communities in B.C. When someone is considering on where to move, money talks. Of course, Enderby isn’t the only community facing a shortage. Across B.C., there are towns without sufficient medical care. There are no easy solutions but as conditions in Enderby demonstrate, the time for leadership is now.

Referendum bid sparks questions

ere we go again. The Regional District of North Okanagan wants to have a referendum on a new sports complex, and in doing so, spend $27,500 to convince us that this is what we want. RDNO says it's $8.5 million over 20 years at $17 to $20 in tax increase and that is at today's rate. What if, as all of the financial people state, the rate could rise by four per cent? What happens then? At present, the transportation to the college is very poor. If we go ahead with this, who is going to pay for the increased transportation and maintenance for the summer and winter? Plus, there's the annual operating costs. How much is this going to increase our tax rate per year? Can anyone show with some authority that we have, or will have, the population to support this complex? At present, most of the younger people are leaving the area because there's no good-paying job prospects or education here. This is becoming a retirement and recreational area. It's not a good base for municipal income. The complex should be centrally located to the community using it. This area is not. We are still paying off a long-term debt we got talked into for the Duteau Creek water plant. This plant was old as they started building it and they already are talking about upgrades to it. How much will this cost us?

some Hope Many Canadians are celebrating the long awaited return of Omar Khadr to Canada, even though it is to a maximum security prison. It has been 10 long years since Omar Khadr, a Canadian, was seriously injured and captured in a U.S. firefight in Afghanistan. Accused of throwing a grenade that later ended the life of a U.S. soldier, Omar was 15-years-old and should have been treated as a child soldier according to the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Child Soldiers. Instead, Omar was sent to Guantanamo, subjected to sleep deprivation interrogations and tortured without access to non-military counsel. After eight years of brutal captivity and facing a mock military trial with a likely conviction of another 40 years in a U.S. military prison, Omar Khadr opted for a plea agreement with the U.S. The agreement required him to confess to several charges against him and accept an additional eight-

year sentence. After one more year — in October 2011— he would be eligible for transfer to a Canadian prison. In the face of our government’s many delays following Omar’s eligibility for transfer to Canada, a Federal Court Action was launched last July. That pressure, as well as the work of many Canadians over the years and in particular from Amnesty International members all over the world, ultimately contributed to his transfer to Canada at the end of September. Although Omar Khadr, now 26-years-old, is still in a maximum security prison, his return to Canada is a welcome development for basic justice and there is hope he will one day be a free citizen of this country. Nadine poznanski stalled NeGotiatioNs Some hockey fans are getting bent out of shape from watching the on-again-off-again NHL negotiations.

Fans should mellow out. Before they blame the multimillionaire players and billionaire owners, they should look in the mirror. The fans created these competitive, moneycrazed Frankenstein monsters. Fans willingly throw enormous sums of money at professional sports. Most franchise owners view hockey as a well-oiled machine for picking the pockets of fanatical fans. Greed hovers around money like flies around an outhouse. There’s never enough, especially if someone else might be getting a little more. Besides, Canadians of all people should be more understanding. If Mr. Bettman presented you with a financial contract, I doubt if you would say, “Gee, Gary show me where to sign.” Furthermore, I bet your first instinct would be to crosscheck him into the boards. lloyd atkins oil pipeliNe More than 100 people rallied in front of MLA Eric Foster's office Oct.

Now they are proposing that we borrow another $5 million for a new arts complex. How much is this going to add? They have also stated that with the new contract to the library employees, their budget now increases. Plus, there's what the council will give the local unions for an increase. Now be honest, and give us the real yearly increase to our yearly taxes I suspect the $17 to $20 is nowhere near that but it will be closer to $100 to $150 per household. To offset this, the council must sell off all of the land and buildings they have been buying over the years and get out of the real estate business. It's something we should not be in as I suspect we are going to lose money. They must also now indicate to all that it will be a zero per cent increase on anything, including expenses, for the next several years Is this a way of justifying the building of all of the hotel rooms this year when we did not need them? If you can get more events, then maybe you can fill the rooms. But the majority of the rooms are at the other end of town which makes for long trips through an already busy highway. We must first get our house in financial order before we start borrowing money, especially in these days of uncertain economic growth. Garry Haas

24 to protest the pending oil pipeline from northern Alberta to Kitimat on the B.C. coast, intended for shipping oil overseas to Asia. We are told that Foster has personally not yet decided if this pipeline is a good thing and his comment was, "There are a lot of pluses." In light of the 7.7 magnitude earthquake epicentred under the ocean floor near Haida Gwaii just a few days later, in close proximity to Kitimat, the resulting tsunami and the 6.3 magnitude earthquake aftershock which followed, is our MLA's immovable political objection fated to be washed away by these irresistible forces of nature? Will it occur before or after the "new" wing in Vernon's hospital is tardily unsealed and opened for its intended use, and D and E meat inspection licenses are finally bestowed upon the North Okanagan after years of empty promises? Or, rephrased, is it going to take place before or after May's provincial election? Jerry Reitman

Nordic skiing starts at Sovereign Lake and Silver Star Morning Star Staff

The winter fun has started in the North Okanagan. Nordic skiing offi-

cially gets underway today at both Silver Star Mountain Resort and the Sovereign Lake Nordic Centre.

More than 20 kilometres of cross-country ski trails will be ready at Sovereign Lake. “The conditions are

good with a light covering of reasonably hard snow,” said Don Wylie, Sovereign Lake general manager.

The Carl Wylie, Passmore and World Cup trails will be open and the green trail, Woodland Bell, will be

added shortly. At Silver Star Mountian Resort, there is 25 centimetres of snow in the village and

Pickup truck hits fence, deck RogeR Knox Morning Star Staff

A drive home ended badly for a Vernon man Wednesday. The 19-year-old was westbound on Okanagan Landing Road in his 1977 GMC pickup truck shortly before 2 a.m. when police report he fell asleep at the wheel. The truck went offroad left into the ditch, through a fence and continuing onto a property in the 7200 block of Okanagan Landing Road. “The vehicle glanced off the house on the property, destroying the front deck and taking out the gas meter,” said Gord Molendyk, spokesperson for the RCMP. The pickup – now without its brakes and steering – continued on through another small ditch, ran over a stop sign, crossed Okanagan Landing Road again, went over a rock landscape and came to rest after crashing into the back of an unoccupied 2012 Ford F350 pickup truck. Fire crews turned off the leaking natural gas at the home. Police say alcohol does not appear to be a factor in the incident. The driver was uninjured but he was ticketed by police for driving without due care and attention.

for the Vernon Salvation Army. The Tundra, along with a fleet of red vehicles, will primarily be parked at Toyota, but is also making a trip up to Silver Star for opening day Thursday. “Once we fill the back of the Tundra we’ll move onto other vehicles,” said Scott Robb, with Vernon Toyota. “By Dec. 15, hopefully we’ll have a convoy of vehicles (which will be decked out in antlers) with Santa driving the Tundra truck in behind.” The community toy drive will benefit lowincome families in the region who access the Salvation Army food bank. While picking up their Christmas hampers, families will also be able to pick out toys

to put under the tree for their kids. “There’s so many families the Salvation Army supports but a lot of these kids don’t get Christmas,” said Ian Jensen, Morning Star publisher. With local realtors already successfully undertaking an annual food drive, Robb says the toy drive was a perfect fit. And the name fits too. “You kind of get the word-play there – TOYota,” adds Jensen. The community is urged to help fill the Tundra and its fleet by dropping toys off at Toyota. The local automobile dealer will also be donating a gift in the buyer’s name for every new or used vehicle purchased from its lot.

Murder mystery helps raise museum funds ennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

Amateur detectives are being called to help solve the 1882 myste-

rious death of Cherry Creek’s Aeneas Dewar. The Greater Vernon Museum and Archives is hosting its annual

Murder Mystery Nov. 30 at 7 p.m. This year’s fundraising mystery revolves around the 130-year-old

death of Cherry Creek tax collector Dewar. “That’s what makes it really unique, is it is based on an actual mur-

der,” said Barbara Bell, museum archivist. “This guy (Dewar) was sent to collect taxes from the Chinese and he didn’t come back.” Those taking part will meet characters

such as Richard Rowatt, a pioneer gold miner, who may hold valuable information into the murder. Amateur detectives interested in unravelling the threads of mystery

can purchase tickets in advance at the museum. Tickets are $5 and includes refreshments, but space is limited to 40 sleuths. Call 250-5423142 for more information.

Police issue poison alert

Morning Star Staff

Lumby RCMP are alerting pet owners after continuing to receive complaints of animals being poisoned on the west side of the village. The latest two reports, said Cpl. Henry Proce, involve dogs along Park Avenue. The detachment has also received reports of cats becoming sick or dying from further up the hill in that area. “It may be this is a deliberate act or the animals are simply getting into some toxic substance,” said Proce. “Either way, it is extremely upsetting to pet owners and we’re putting this message out for their information.” Not part of the deal A new homeowner moving into a residence on Thomas Road in Cherryville discovered an unexpected addition to his property. Buried beneath one of his sheds was a steel sea can. “The large shipping container has obviously been used to grow marijuana and was inspected by police,” said Cpl Henry Proce, with the RCMP. “This is the second such facility we’ve dealt with this year.”

Gates gone Lumby RCMP are investigating the theft of a pair of ornate iron driveway gates from the 500 block of Bluenose Road. The gates are black, very large and heavy. “Whoever stole them was well-prepared with a vehicle and no doubt an accomplice,” said Cpl. Henry Proce. The gates are about 10-feet long and ninefeet high at the highest point. There is a large star

in a circle (pentagram) incorporated into the centre of each gate. They are custom made and easily identifiable. Anybody with any information on the location of these iron gates can contact the Lumby detachment at 1-250-547-2151, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. Tips can also be left at nokscrimestoppers. com. Public appeal At the end of October, a couple of men attempted to steal

a pickup truck from the Twin Creeks Motel. The vehicle belonged to a guest from Nanaimo. “The business has surveillance cameras which captured the incident,” said Cpl. Henry Proce, with the RCMP. “However, after viewing the video, police were not able to make an accurate identification. “Again, any information out there would be helpful in solving this matter.”

Cotter recovers at Rogers Masters Kuhn riding hot streak into women’s regionals Morning Star Staff

Vernon’s Jim Cotter has rebounded from a rough start at the Rogers Masters Curling Grand Slam Thursday afternoon in Brantford, Ont. Cotter, who curls with third Jason (Gunner) Gunnlaugson, second Ty Griffith and lead Rick Sawatsky, opened the $100,000 event with a pair of losses, falling 6-2 to Ontario’s Brad Jacobs and 5-3 to Winnipeg’s Mike McEwan. The Vernon-Kelowna rink recovered with a 5-4 comeback win over Sweden’s Niklas Eden Thursday afternoon. There is a field of 18. Trailing 4-2 after five ends, Cotter counted three straight singles to upend the Swedes. Cotter, a semifinalist at last week’s Whites Drug Store Classic last weekend in Swan River, Man, meets Toronto’s Mark Kean this morning at 5:30 a.m. Pacific, and Newfoundland’s Brad Gushue at 9 a.m. Games are being televised on Sportsnet. Meanwhile, Robbi Kuhn is heading into women’s regional open playdowns today at the Vernon Curling Club on a high. Kuhn, supported by Karla Thompson, Michelle Ramsay and Christen Wilson,

The night draw goes at 8:30 p.m., with Saturday action set for 9 a.m., 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. Three of the 10 entries qualify for provincials, in January, in Cloverdale. In Super League play, Kuhn, now 3-4, counted a single in an extra end to hand Merklinger (6-1) his first loss. Mark Longworth’s Sladen Moore got back on track with a closely contested 5-3 win over Sherry Heath’s De Vine Vintners. After trading singles over the first four ends, Heath (1-6) settled for a single steal in five after Jamie Sexton, subbing for the injured Longworth, pulled off a 15-foot angle-raise takeout to remove a stone. The 2-4 Longworth rink replied with a single in six and sealed the win with a deuce in seven when Sandra Jenkins, tossing skip’s stones for Heath, overcurled an inch on her final draw attempt. With Cotter away at the Slam, Aron Herrick piloted Woodland Equipment to a 7-0 shellacking of Darrell (Heavy D) Houston’s Nufloors. Houston (4-3) hit and rolled a touch too far, allowing a steal of two in the first end. After blanking two, he narrowly missed a raise to give up another steal in three. Four more burgled points by the 5-1 feller bunchers over ends four and five resulted in handshakes.

Vipers jumpstart three-game swing in Powell River Morning Star Staff

There have been a few setbacks along the way, but the Vernon Vipers have a pretty good mind-set as they begin a three-game B.C. Hockey League road trip tonight in Powell River. With points in seven straight games, and undefeated in regulation, in November, the Snakes have finally reached the .500 mark (7-7-0-6) as they visit the Kings at Hap Parker Arena. They head over to Vancouver Island to take on the Alberni Valley Bulldogs (11-9-0-3) Saturday at Weyerhaeuser Arena, before ending the swing with a Sunday matinee with the Coquitlam Express (11-9-1) at Poirier Sports and Leisure Centre. Williamson “As of late, we beat Chilliwack (Chiefs), Nanaimo (Clippers) and Surrey (Eagles) – those are some of the top teams right now,” said Vipers’ head coach Jason Williamson, from the team bus Thursday morning. “We’ve started to go in the right direction.” Vernon is looking to improve upon a 2-4-0-3 road record,

NOBODY BEATS AARON’S PRICES …

while Powell River (5-3-0-2) and Alberni (6-3-0-2) are strong at home. Coquitlam is 4-6 at Poirier. Williamson planned to start Austin Smith against the Kings tonight, and Danny Todosychuk versus the Bulldogs. Todosychuk was stellar in earning his second win last Saturday, recording 46 saves in Vernon’s 3-2 overtime win over Surrey. “Our goaltending has been good,” said Williamson. “Smitty, even though we lost Friday night (2-1 OT loss to Trail Smoke Eaters), he was good. He only let two in on 30 shots.” The Vipers fell 4-3 to the Kings in their second regular-season game in September (at the BCHL Showcase in Chilliwack), and Williamson expects a better showing tonight. “It wasn’t our best effort, it was early in the season, and it was a one-goal hockey game. We were leading going into the third period; we still have a sour taste in our mouth about it.” With Kent Lewis guiding the Kings, the Vipers can expect a hard-nosed, defence-first battle in Powell River. They are backstopped by netminder Jonah Imoo, who was teammates with Vipers’ alternate captain Aaron Hadley on the silvermedal winning Canada West at last week’s World Junior A

Vernon’s Jordan Burns, the younger brother of Tanner Burns (North Okanagan Junior B Knights), is third on Kings’ scoring with two goals and 11 assists in 22 games. With 21 healthy bodies, Williamson will have the luxury of a healthy scratch for the second time in two years as a head coach. Veteran forwards Colton Sparrow (neck) and Brendan Persley (broken leg) are on injured reserve. Williamson has been skating with the following lines at practice this week: Pearce Eviston, Logan Mick, Adam Tambellini; Craig Martin, TJ Dumonceux, Hadley; Mitch Van Teeling, Jedd Soleway, Braden Russell; Mike Roberts, Landon Robin, Mitch McAllister. n The Salmon Arm SilverBacks swung a three-way trade Wednesday involving the Penticton Vees and Powell River. The ‘Backs dealt 20-year-old d-man Sean Flanagan to Penticton in exchange for 18-year-old forward Alex Jewell of Vernon. The Vees then sent 18-year-old D Noah Henry to Powell River for 19-year-old F Steven Iacobellis, who becomes a member of the SilverBacks.

Finocchio savours Southern adventure the laid back South American lifestyle when he showed up for practice session. “I was at the hill every morning at 8 a.m., just like the schedule said, but there must have been another schedule that I knew nothing about,” said Finocchio. “The South American riders rolled in between 9:00 and 9:30 and they were early. We didn’t get a warm up run started before 10. It just seems to be the way it is. There was no anger or frustration. Everyone just seemed to go with it.” Finocchio entered the IGSA Snake Skeleton Downhill in Potrero de los Funes, Argentina. The race started with a practice day under a scorching sun.

The fastest qualifying time, a trip to the medical tent, tasty Argentinian beef and some talented South American downhill longboarders. That’s just a taste of what Vernon’s Quin Finocchio encountered as he ventured south for the International Gravity Sports Association’s Circuito Sudamericano de Downhill. That Finocchio didn’t reach the finals of the one event he competed in seems irrelevant. In terms of life experience, he came away a winner. “The culture in Argentina was amazing,” said the Vernon Secondary grad. “I came away with a lot of really good experiences and some observations that will really help as I begin travelling on my own to these places next year.” Finocchio got his first taste of

A stout headwind picked up after lunch, making qualifying times slower, some by more than 10 seconds. “For me, headwinds are an advantage because of my tuck,” said Finocchio, who lost less than two seconds on his afternoon run. “My time ended up being the fastest run in the afternoon session. It was the first time I’ve ever won a qualifying session. It rocked.” The field was whittled down to 96 racers on race day, and Finocchio won his first heat to advance to the final 48. A slow start in the next race saw Finocchio trailing in fifth place after 300 metres. “Things got frustrating from there as the two riders directly ahead of me rode in tandem, and whenever I tried to pass one or the other would block my line,” he said. With about 350 metres to go, he tried to pass between them coming into the last corner. It didn’t turn out so well. Forced to pass on the outside, Finicchio said: “He blocked me again and I tried pushing him with my arm to get him

They had a couple of doctors who looked me over, tested for a concussion and did a very thorough evaluation to ensure I was fine.” The medics wanted to send Finocchio to hospital for further observation, but after insisting he was fine, Finocchio was cleared to

compete and made it to the top of the run for the Junior 2 semifinal heat. He finished fourth, missing the finals. In the consolation final, Faulke Nehren of Venezuela, a friend Finocchio made earlier in the trip, asked if he wanted to butt-board (sit on skateboard) the race. “Seventh vs 12th points had no impact on my world ranking,” said Finocchio. “I beat him, finished fourth in the heat and 10th in the J2 race. It was a blast.”

A better way forward

Jewell, who played alongside Salmon Arm sophomore forward Alex Gillies in minor hockey, will wear No. 11 in the Shuswap. He was No. 7 with the Vees, who entertain the SilverBacks tonight. “Obviously, it sucks to be leaving my teammates in Penticton, but I’m really excited about joining Salmon Arm and helping them get back on the winning track,” Jewell told The Morning Star. “They’re all good guys.” A natural centre who may play the wing for the SilverBacks, Jewell was preparing for his first practice with the Gorillas Thursday afternoon. Jewell spent most of last year with the KIJHL Osoyoos Heat, but played 10 games for the Vees, producing one goal and five points.

“I’m going to try and use my quickness, finish my checks and generate some scoring chances,” he said. Jewell joins the SilverBacks on Parents Weekend as Salmon Arm hosts the Merritt Centennials Saturday night and the Prince George Spruce Kings in a Sunday matinee. n Vernon products Curtis Lazar (Edmonton Oil Kings) and Brady Brassart (Calgary Hitmen) helped Team WHL to a 1-0 shootout Team Russia in Subway Super Series action Wednesday night at Pacific Coliseum in Vancouver. Oil Kings’ netminder Laurent Brossoit made 30 saves, then denied all three Russian shootout candidates in front of 11,000 fans. Sam Reinhart (Kootenay Ice) scored the shootout winner.

which include being a smoker, being physically inactive, eating an unhealthy diet, or being overweight. “We all know that healthy eating, being physically active, and not smoking can make us healthier but these changes can often be difficult to achieve on our own,” said Lex Baas, with the Interior Health Authority’s promotion and prevention department. “When we live in a healthy community it is much easier for us to make healthy choices every day.” IHA’s Healthy C om mu n it i e s Initiative strives to improve the health of residents through policy and environmental changes that help make the healthy choice the easy choice. By partnering with local governments, IHA will help identify community priorities and develop action plans to address areas such as protection from second hand smoke, access to healthy food, the availability of parks and other green spaces, and opportunities for recreation. “Many local governments have already been doing great work to improve the health of citizens,” said Baas. “Our Healthy C om mu n it i e s Initiative will not only help support this work, it will build upon it to ensure healthy living is top of mind when policy decisions are made.” For more information on the initiative, go to www.interiorhealth.ca.

Fish linked to land puzzle

Supporting a Dream

There’s much more to providing an environment for fish than just ensuring there are adequate flows in a stream at key times, warns biologist Jason Schleppe, a principle in Ecoscape Environmental Consultants. He was speaking to the Okanagan Water Stewardship Council about fish and environmental flows recently. The council makes recommendations on technical issues to the Okanagan Basin Water Board, which is made up of representatives from the three Okanagan regional district boards. Schleppe admitted frankly to being a ‘fishcentric’ person who loves fish. He pointed out that stream flows impact fish food such as algae, as well as fish themselves, in different stages of their life cycles. “When you begin changing flows, it’s hard to image all the consequences; the webs and linkages.” He described a river in Texas that went dry one summer. All of the vegetation along the river died too, not just the fish and aquatic vegetation. That impacted a heron rookery alongside the river, because their habitat died with the mature cottonwoods in which they’d built their nests. “It’s important to realize what could be impacted and linkages are a key part of the puzzle.” Stream flow management should not be entirely fish-focussed, but he said it’s important to plan for both people and fish. There are lots of rare and endangered species living in the Okanagan. For instance, he said, kokanee are a keystone species in the Okanagan. They’re the lifeblood of large lakes like Okanagan Lake, where they are the driving force for biodiversity. “Kokanee make big rainbows and such fish are a good economic driver.” And, local government plays an important role in what land uses are permitted adjacent to riparian areas, he noted. “It can become costly if you need to begin purchasing land adjacent to streams. The biological world is complicated, but if we left it alone, it would probably be fine.” With our world in a rapid state of change, there’s far more risk to the natural world. “We need champions to work through conflicts as part of a good planning process,” he added. With climate change, extreme flows will begin to happen more often, he warned, and managing flows will be a challenge. Compromise and adaptability will be important and education will be key to leaving an environment where fish can survive. “It’s a lot more than just fish,” he explained. In fact, it’s not about protecting particular species now, but about protecting the highest value habitat, he said.

Annie is only just days away...

Powerhouse musical reunites director with his former student Kristin Froneman Morning Star Staff

A lot of people know Vernon’s Jackson Mace for his booming voice. The lead singer/guitarist of local rock band Mace, which recently celebrated its 26th anniversary, can certainly belt out a tune. Besides his obvious command of an audience, the former full-time elementary school teacher has also directed a number of local theatrical productions. But there’s one that has stuck with him from when he was first handed a megaphone — an unnecessary prop — while directing plays from his teaching days at Okanagan Landing Elementary. Here’s a hint: It’s about a redheaded orphan, featured in a comic strip, Broadway musical and film, who sings about the sun coming out tomorrow. And you can bet your bottom dollar that Mace, and many others out there, are glad to see Annie back on the stage. “It’s hard not to love Annie and the feistiness she has,” said Mace, who is directing the show as the opener of Powerhouse’s 2012-13 season. “It still has relevance today. It’s a story of redemption, about a guy wrapped up in money who has his heart turned around. She even influences the White House to reset the course of the U.S. government when she sings “the sun will come out,” inspiring a new deal.” A Daddy Warbucks if he had no hair and a lot more money, Mace’s booming personality has served him well as a director. But unlike the lonely billionaire, Mace has no problem with generosity. Just ask his former student Elise Wilson, who played the lead when Mace directed Annie for Okanagan Landing in 2005. Wilson has been cast to play a different role in the Powerhouse production, this time as Daddy Warbucks’ long suffering secretary,

Once teacher and pupil, now director and actor, Jackson Mace and Elise Wilson have re-teamed, along with a large cast and crew, to stage the musical Annie at Vernon’s Powerhouse Theatre. Wilson, below, in 2005, when she starred in the leading role back when Annie was staged by Okanagan Landing Elementary School.

Grace Farrell. “When Jackson asked me to audition for this show, I was totally down for it,” said Wilson, who has pursued dance and singing, and in 2010 acted as Cha Cha in Powerhouse’s last big musical production, Grease. “I’m 18 now so I was not sure where I’d fit in — I’m not really an orphan or an adult.” For Mace, it was a no brainer. He instantly thought of Wilson, who shared the part of Annie when she was in Grade 5, and says he found her through Facebook

and asked her to audition for the Powerhouse production. “It was a big production back then. We did auditions. They were open-ended, so if anyone wanted to give it a try, I would find them a spot in the show. With Elise, it was pretty clear cut. I had a strong group of singers who were in Grade 5, and Elise was definitely one of them.” Mace felt the same way when Wilson and the others came to audition for the Powerhouse production. “She sang Little Girl at the audition and I asked her if she knew I Think I’m Gonna Like it Here (Grace’s song) and she nailed it,” said Mace, adding he has a few other actors in the ensemble playing older characters. “They can do so much to cover it as they are all so talented.” Some of those talents include 12-year-old Shaughnessy O’Brien, a natural redhead, seemingly destined to play the part of Annie. “She is extremely talented,” said Mace. “You give her a note or a suggestion just once and she’s got it.” “She also looks the part and is

very mature,” added Wilson. “Most of my scenes are with Annie and I think Shaughnessy is such a great girl. When she’s on the stage, she’s focussed.” Playing the part of Annie’s nemesis, the scheming orphanage owner Miss Hannigan, is none other than Lana O’Brien, Shaughnessy’s real-life mom and beloved drama teacher at W.L. Seaton Secondary School. “She brings so much experience to the role and is also a gifted director. What she brings to her scenes goes a notch higher,” said Mace. Last year’s O-Zone and Theatre BC Mainstage winning director Matt Brown (The Woman in Black) is back acting as Miss Hannigan’s sleazy brother, Daniel (Rooster) Hannigan, while Emily Heayn (Grease, Lend Me A Tenor) plays his clueless girlfriend, Lily St. Regis. Scott May (who has played Valjean in Les Miz, as well as the Pirate King in last year’s Pirates of Penzance, both Valley Vocal Arts productions) has shaved his head to play Daddy Warbucks.

Mace has also been impressed with the time and dedication each actor, including his ensemble, some of which consists of nine young orphans, ages nine to 14, have devoted to the musical including rehearsing until 9:30 p.m. on some school nights. “At the auditions, I told them even if you get an ensemble part, you’ll be on the stage a lot. You’ll be playing a number of characters and singing in almost all the musical numbers.... It’s loaded with opportunities to fulfill a need to perform and be on stage.” The cast has also been working with chorographer Susan Fenner on all those big group numbers. “Each number has choreography, but it’s different dancing than what audiences saw in Grease. It’s more in the background, but still important. We even wrote in a dance piece for Emily (Lily) to perform that’s a Charleston,” said Mace. Behind the scenes, the crew, led by technical director Val Heuman, has been working on the technically and logistically challenging scenes with so many people on the stage, and the “tremendously involved” set created by Eugene Leveque, said Mace, who also gives a shout out to head costumer Erika Belsheim. “When Annie and Warbucks enter a street scene, there’s a fortune teller, a juggler, an usherette, and even Santa. It really shows off Erika’s talent,” said Mace. For Wilson, the person she wants to thank is the guy who got her up on that stage in the first place. “The cast is so grateful to have such a dedicated and wonderful director,” she said. Spoken like Little Orphan Annie herself. Annie opens at the Powerhouse Theatre on Wednesday and continues nightly at 7:30 p.m. (except Sundays and Mondays) to Dec. 1. Matinées take place Sunday, Nov. 25 and Dec. 2 at 2 p.m. At press time, tickets were close to 90 per cent sold out with some single tickets still available.

Les Ballets Jazz celebrates 40 years

Arts department at

Morning Star Staff

They are among Canada’s most beloved and longest running dance companies. Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal has been producing innovative dance by world renowned chorographers for the past four decades, and there’s no intention of the company slowing down anytime soon. To celebrate its 40th anniversary, Les Ballets Jazz is bringing its visually stunning contemporary performance featuring dances from three prolific choreographers across the country. The full company of 12 dancers will be at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre on Tuesday as the VPAC society’s second performance in its dance series. “What sets them apart from other dance companies is their quality of performances and ability to captivate audiences and critics around the world,” said Kip Whelpley, the VPAC’s dance outreach coordinator. The first piece is the duo Zero In On by Cayetano Soto, danced to the music of visionary musician and composer Philip Glass. Born in Spain, Soto started his dance education in his hometown of Barcelona and continued his studies in The Hague, Netherlands. After receiving his degree, he danced with IT Dansa in Barcelona before joining the Ballet

Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal dancers perform to Harry by L.A. choreographer Barak Marshall, one of three pieces to be performed by the company at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre on Tuesday. Theatre Munich a year later. There he created several successful ballets for the company. Now based in Munich, Soto has gone on to create dances for some of the top ballet companies in Europe. “Like a Pedro Almodóvar film, Soto subverts beauty to convey something else,” said Rebecca Ritzel, with The Washington Post. Chinese-born Canadian choreographer and dance company owner Wen Wei Wang was last in Vernon in 2010 with his full-length collaborative work Under the Skin, co-produced with the Beijing Modern Dance Company. Les Ballets Jazz will perform Wang’s Night Box, which uses movement and light to tell a dynamic story inspired by the urban night life of

Montréal. “Wang’s fascinating imaginary world of burgeoning manhood and confused desire… It’s all brilliantly theatrical, in turns witty, poignant and unsettling…,” said Michael Crabb, with The National Post. The third piece, Harry, is a new dance specially commissioned for Les Ballets Jazz by a rising star in the world of choreography, Barak Marshall. Born and raised in L.A., Marshall is the son of acclaimed dancer, choreographer and musician Margalit Oved and has fast established himself as one of Israeli dance’s most innovative and unique voices, winning numerous awards. Marshall’s own dance company has toured extensively throughout Europe, including per-

Auditions for

formances in Berlin, Lyon and Paris. Also a singer, he has performed as a soloist with cellist Yo-Yo Ma and the Silk Road Project, the Yuval Ron Ensemble and the Los Angeles Jewish Symphony. To welcome Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal to Vernon, the VPAC has scheduled two outreach events. For all of those interested in what happens behind the scenes, the company’s tour technical director is hosting an exclusive 30-to-60 minute technical discussion. “Participants will have the opportunity to discuss the integral and sophisticated technical

inspirations and processes, with a focus on lighting, with one of the industry’s finest lighting directors,” said Whelpley. The VPAC is also offering a master class with Les Ballets Jazz dancers on Monday from 6:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. The class is for local advanced dance students only and space is very limited. To participate in either class, contact the Ticket Seller at 250-549-7469 for availability. Les Ballets Jazz de Montréal takes the stage at the VPAC Tuesday at 8 p.m. Tickets are $35/ adult, $32/senior, $30/ student, $5/eyeGO at the Ticket Seller box office, www.ticketseller.ca.

She and Samuel last produced, wrote and directed the film TORA, starring David Suzuki, which was partly filmed in Vernon and was shown on the international film festival circuit. “Rock Bottom is a very different project than TORA,” said Samuel, “It’s a neo-noir post apocalyptic action flick that’s a ton of fun and will appeal to audiences both east and west.” The couple has been writing and developing Rock Bottom for the past three years and attribute its strength to the support of Okanagan Film Commissioner Jon Summerland and local

film and new media professionals. As a finalist for the China/Canada Gateway Competition, designed to stimulate co-productions between Canada and China, the Lake Country filmmakers are up against projects with top notch writer/producer teams and some big production companies. “Even making it to the finals is an incredible accomplishment and vote of confidence for Mountain Lake Films and Rock Bottom,” said Ord. The competition takes place at the Whistler International Film Festival on Nov. 29.

Janice Lenius whips ups products for her Cherryville-based company, Earth Elements Farm Products, which are handmade, and GMO-free.

Inspired by her grandmother Janice Lenius brings her handcrafted candles and other products to the Okanagan Artisans Show & Sale Nov. 23 and 24

Debbee Werner Special to The Morning Star

Visits to Grandma’s house were an illuminating time for Janice Lenius, as a little girl growing up in Lumby. Her grandma was a great lover of candles, and to enter her home was to walk into a fragrant and glowing haven of candlelight. “My grandma always had at least one candle going, no matter what time of the day or year,” said Lenius, creator of Earth Elements Farm Products. “She treated them as friends, cleaning them, and keeping the wax even. There was usually a candle burning in each corner of the room.” The candles always intrigued Lenius, and the memory stayed with her. “I didn’t realize what a spiritual practice this was until after she had passed away. It made me think about how to

make a better candle.” Now living in Cherryville, Lenius is the mother of five young children. She was looking for a sideline to occupy her while her husband was at work. After a time of contemplation, research and experimentation, she created her first handmade soy candle. “I am a huge fan of beeswax, but I wanted an alternative which would give me more scope for including other ingredients. I had found information at the Cherryville Farmers’ Market which clued me into the importance of using products that have not been genetically-modified; and also learned that people were really wanting items like candles and lip balms, that are GM-free.” Responding to the demand in the marketplace, in 2009 Lenius launched Earth Elements Farm Products. “We later added different soy body products as we grew to understand what people were really looking for. Earth Elements is now a company supplying all types of retailers across Canada.” Earlier in 2012, Earth Elements launched Lenius’ dynamic new creation, Potion Tattoo Aftercare. “Potion is every bit a reflection of my beliefs, my lifestyle and my personality; all

good and a little bit bad ass! “Made with unrefined, organic, preservative-free ingredients, we are proud to offer an artisan-designed, balanced alternative to common tattoo aftercare products.” Potion is being marketed internationally, and is sponsor of Raggedy Rollers and Candy Strykers, women’s teams in the Okanagan Shuswap Roller Derby Association. With business continually growing, Lenius has had to expand her operation. “We are opening a wonderful new studio in downtown Lumby, this December. “We needed a bigger facility for manufacturing. It is a bonus to have a space that will allow us the room to display all of our different collections of candles, and our rainbow of soaps, soy sticks and lotions. “We also love specialty orders — for weddings, refills, etc.— the new studio will give us room to be super creative!” Lenius will be showcasing Earth Elements Farm Products in Vernon at the Okanagan Artisans Guild Show & Sale, being held at the Best Western Vernon Lodge on Nov. 23 from noon to 9 p.m. and Nov. 24, from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. For more information, please see www. earthelementsfarmproducts.com.

Hi, my name is Colby

Scots host ceilidh Peter KenDal

Special to The Morning Star

On Remembrance Day I had the privilege of carrying what I realized was probably the oldest flag in the service: the St. Andrew’s Cross, the national flag of Scotland. St. Andrew is the patron saint of Scotland and figures prominently in several other countries, including Russia, Ukraine, and Barbados. The saint was never in Scotland as he was one of the first disciples of Jesus and was subsequently crucified in Patras, Greece. There is much more that can be told about St. Andrew but the main thing is that his day is officially celebrated by Scots the world over on Nov. 30. In Vernon the Sons of Scotland are celebrating early on Nov. 24 with a family ceilidh (convivial gathering) at the Schubert Centre from 7 -11 p.m. This features displays of Scottish Country and Highland dancing, bagpiping, and local Celtic band Cod Gone Wild‚ who were such a great hit at St. Andrew’s night ceilidh last year. You, whether you are a Scot or not, are invited to get your ticket for an evening’s entertainment with refreshments. As they say in Scots Gaelic, “Ceud mille failte!” (A hundred thousand welcomes!)

I bring eagerness and enthusiasm to help you with all your lighting needs, whether that be one room or an entire house. Come in to see me today.

Suicide survivor not at fault

ear Annie: Last May, my children’s father committed suicide. He and I had split up two years before because of his violent ways. Despite my marrying another man, I still cared for my ex and worried about his welfare. I would even sneak him food and pay his electric bill behind my husband’s back. My husband occasionally would forbid my kids and me from having contact with my ex. He had a point. My ex and I had attempted to reconcile in April, but I couldn’t do it. During the drive back to my husband, my ex phoned and begged me to return. I told him I was afraid of him. He yelled, “Nobody will ever have to worry about me anymore.” Twenty minutes

Don’t let the flu bug you.

later, I received a call from his brother, who found him dead. I blame myself. His family does, too. I didn’t even go to his funeral, because some of his family members had threatened to kill me if I showed up. I feel terrible for my kids and don’t know how to cope. What should I do? Will my kids be OK? — Distraught Ex Dear Distraught: We are so sorry that you are experiencing this tragedy, but please know that you are not responsible for your ex’s decision to end his life. He sounds like a troubled soul who didn’t believe he had any other way out. Please contact Survivors of Suicide (survivorsofsuicide. com) and the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention (afsp.org) to find a support group for you and your children. They will be OK, but they could use some help, and they will need you to guide them. Dear Annie: I am a 56-year-old professional man in nonprofit work. I am outgoing and reasonably intelligent, have a great sense of humor and generally

like people. My observation and experience is that most men, especially over 40, have a difficult time making new friends. The married ones tend to rely on their wives. Others rely on family or longterm friendships. But men like me who don’t have wives, whose parents have died, who have no siblings or children, and whose old friends have moved away find it awkward and difficult to reach out. My trainer is 45, outgoing, happily married with two great children, has both sets of parents still alive, is active in church, etc., and even he says he doesn’t know how to make new friends. I realize there is no oneanswer-fits-all, but I’d sure like to know what you and your readers suggest for those of us who are trying to get

out of the house, but don’t know where to go. — Not Anti-Social or Addicted to the Internet Dear Not: Find an activity that you enjoy and that involves other people. Look for community theater or choral groups. Volunteer at hospitals, schools, animal shelters, soup kitchens or for a political candidate. Park districts and local colleges may offer night classes for those who want to improve their education. See whether your health club has a regular spin class or an adult basketball team. If you can afford to travel, sign up for a group tour. We also recommend meetup.com, which facilitates finding people with similar interests of any kind. If our readers have more to add, we’re happy to print additional suggestions. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Frustrated in the Midwest,” who is conflicted about his fiancee’s four kids and their lack of responsibility around the house. I’d tell him not to consider marrying that woman until her children are grown. I married a man

who had custody of two spoiled brats. He and I got along wonderfully, but with his two teenage kids in the mix, it was pure torture. The best day of my life was when the oldest left and the youngest moved to her mother’s. — Midwest Evil Stepmom Dear Annie: We recently received a wedding invitation for a Friday wedding that starts at 5:30. I think that is too early for a Friday night wedding. It borders on rude by asking people to take time off from work or rush like crazy to get there on time. What do you think? — Keep Your Guests in Mind Dear Keep: While bridal couples should not put undue burdens on their guests, they do get to decide what time to start their wedding. (It would be impossible to please everyone.) Many weddings begin with some socialization before the actual ceremony, so you may not be as late or as rushed as you think. Please try to enjoy yourself and wish the couple well without resenting the inconvenience to you.

If you enjoy knitting or crocheting, the Gleaners could use your help. Every year, the group collects new socks, mittens, toques and undergarments for children of all ages. This year, they will go to children in Bulgaria, to keep them warm in winter. “Many people enjoy knitting these items for us or you can purchase them new,” said Howie Anhorn, with the Gleaners. “Last year, the Okanagan produced 22,000 pieces, and your donations are most appreciated.” Collection barrels have been placed in most churches in the North Okanagan, as well as at the Schubert Centre and at the Gleaners furniture store. Last day for collection is Nov. 25.

Supports Kids to Be All That They Can Be with: • After school programs • Mum & Tot drop in programs • Prenatal nutrition program • Youth programs Help us make this a great community for everyone. To donate please go to www.unitedwaynocs.com, call 250-549-1346 to donate by credit card, or drop a cheque in the mail to 3304 – 30th Avenue, Vernon, BC V1T 2C8.

Change starts here.

Gleaners is known for the two processing plants it runs; the Vernon plant opened in 2007, the Oliver plant opened in 1994. Soup mixes are made at the plants to be sent around the world. “We gather (glean) crops that are damaged or left in the fields and that would otherwise go to waste,” said Anhorn. “The product is dried and made into a soup mix that is shipped by various relief organizations around the world for people who are starving. “Gleaners is made up of Christian volunteers who gather, process and package the produce donated by many local farmers.” Gleaners also collects used medical equipment which is shipped by relief organizations to various parts of the world. As well, thousands of packages of seeds are donated annually by PNW Seeds to Gleaners, which this year sent them to North Korean along with the soup, which will arrive there at the end of November. To help with the costs of running the processing plant, the Gleaners run a used furniture store at 4405-29th St., and donations of used furniture are always welcome, with pick-up available by calling 250-549-1123. “If you could volunteer a few hours a week at the store, please call — this store, and other donations, is the only means of support for the food processing plant.” Volunteers at the plant are always needed, Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to noon. If you can help, please call Eileen at 250-545-1672 for directions. For more information about the Gleaners, please call Anhorn at 250-549-1632.

Moderately Confused

Bridge by Phillip Alder THE ODDS ARE LOW BUT NOT IGNORED Aristotle said, “All human actions have one or more of these seven causes: chance, nature, compulsion, habit, reason, passion, desire.” Which of those seven apply to a bridge deal? Definitely chance, occasionally habit, one hopes reason, every so often passion, and -- surely -always desire (to succeed). Of the others, I have heard a player, when commenting on a deal, say, “It is the nature of the beast.” Compulsion also rears its ugly head, a player saying something like, “I felt a compulsion to lead a club, even though I was sure it was wrong.” In today’s deal, South is in four hearts. West leads

the diamond ace, cashes the diamond king, and gives his partner a diamond ruff. East shifts to the club king. How should declarer proceed? It looks too simple -- take dummy’s top trumps, cash the diamond 10 for a club pitch, and claim. But when West immediately shows out in hearts, the contract will compulsorily fail. South should consider the chance of East’s having started with all four trumps. A priori it is about 5 percent, but with diamonds known to be 4-2, the percentage has risen to nearly 7 -- that number again. Declarer should play a spade to his ace before leading a heart to dummy. If the hearts are 3-1 or 2-2, no worries. But when they

are 4-0, South calls for the spade queen. If East plays low, declarer discards his club loser. If East covers with his king, South ruffs, plays a trump to dummy, and throws his last club on the spade jack. Two chances are better than one.

Our always laughing wife and mother of two sons has passed away on November 10, 2012, after several ordeals in recent years. Until the last incident she would get up and laugh. She will be missed by her husband of 52 years, George and sons Patrick and Leonard, both bachelors; her two sisters and brother in England and nephews and nieces around the world. Pat was born in Reading, Berkshire, England on November 3, 1939 and lived with her grandmother throughout WW2. She was educated at St. Anne’s Catholic School and later Reading Technical College. Her ambition to be a Librarian was cut short by marriage, but which had begun at Reading University Library. Marriage was on May 28, 1960 at St. Anne’s Catholic Church, Caversham followed by a two day honeymoon and later that year the overland trip to Australia. Leonard and Patrick were both born in Queensland. A glutton for punishment, a return journey to Britain, beginning in Sri Lanka (Ceylon) using ferries where needed and a different route via Palestine and the middle east including the Dead Sea and Holy Land was made in 1964 with both sons, to show to their grandparents in England. Fourteen months later, she came to Canada, landing at Pier 31 from RMS Carinthia and went to Prince Edward Island where husband George was involved in building steel-hulled trawlers. Moving on later in 1966 to Amherstburg, Ontario where her family lived in a tent until October, she became accustomed to walking around barefoot in floodwaters from regular thunderstorms! Continuing across Canada to White Rock, BC, she met the late Melanie Christien who became a good friend and whose parents influenced her move to Vernon, on condition she would not move again. Pat was involved with Forestry, beginning work at the Government Nursery and later Pacific Regeneration Technologies where she worked for twenty seven years before retiring. Pat was involved with family history, friends of history, historical society, two garden clubs, outdoors club, Tuesday ramblers and others. She was good at knitting from a young age and her Nativity Scenes can be seen around Vernon at Christmas time. She recorded monument inscriptions, birth, marriage and death entries in Okanagan newspapers, funeral home records, 1891 census of BC and various other projects including the list of Vernon Citizens who served in World War 1, seen each year at the Remembrance Day entrance at Westbuild Centre Her Requiem Mass will be held at St. James’ Catholic Church on Wednesday, November 21, at 11:00 a.m. with interment at St. Nicholas’ Cemetery in Coldstream. Those wishing to remember Pat may do so by donating to The Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation, 2101 – 32 Street, Vernon, BC V1T 5L2 or via www.vjhfoundation.org., in lieu of flowers. Pat believed in the organ donor program and her corneas (eyes) were recovered for the benefit of others. She would encourage others to consider being donors in the future. Arrangements are in the care of Vernon Funeral Home 250-542-0155.

Gayle Gardham (nee Wolsey) October 28, 1953 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; October 25, 2012 It is with deep regret we announce the passing of Gayle (Wolsey) Gardham on October 25, 2012. Gayle was born in Calgary, October 28th, 1953 with an innate sweetness that would touch everyone who met her. One of Gayleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great giĹ&#x152;s was her ability to feel compassion and kindness for everyone she met, and she shared her heart genuinely with so many people. Her passion and excitement for life was infecĆ&#x;ous; there was truly no one more excited at a rock concert than Gayle, who was guaranteed to lose her voice aĹ&#x152;er every single one. Although Gayle had a well known love for music and could sing along to any Bob Dylan or Rolling Stones song, she is most recognized and admired for her love of her sons, Mark and Dylan. Gayle raised these two wonderful boys, who exemplify their Momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best qualiĆ&#x;es in their own quiet ways. No mom loved her children more. Gayle was also blessed with a new love later in life. Murray and Gayle were together for 17 years and built a wonderful life, ÄŽlled with grandchildren, travel, ÄŽshing, and a winter home in Arizona. Gayle was the third born of four siblings, and our family has been blessed because of the way these siblings loved and supported each other through all of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ups and downs. Together, learning from their motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s example, they have taught our family values, strength and togetherness. Gayle was a pillar in our family and made each and every one of us feel important and heard. Her presence in our lives has made a deep impact forever. Gayle used her beauĆ&#x;ful heart in her work in correcĆ&#x;ons, social service and for Government Make Work projects, and through volunteering for the Red Cross and Run for the Cure. Gayle is survived by her husband, Murray; her sons Mark (Terra) and Dylan (Natalie); her step-daughters Shawna and Cheri (Rod); her sister Colene (Dave), her brothers Ray (Shelley) and Clay (Monica); and her loving grandchildren, nieces and nephews, family and friends. Gayle requested there be no funeral service, however, a CelebraĆ&#x;on of Life will be held at a yet to be determined Ć&#x;me. In lieu of Ĺ&#x2021;owers please make a donaĆ&#x;on in Gayleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s honour to a Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s TransiĆ&#x;on House of your choosing. The family would like to thank the staÄŤ of Vancouver General Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leukemia ward for their compassionate care and support. Gayle- in the words of your favourite arĆ&#x;st, Bob Dylan- â&#x20AC;&#x153;May God bless and keep you always, May your wishes all come true, May you always do for others, And let others do for you, May you build a ladder to the stars, And climb on every rung, May you stay forever young.â&#x20AC;?
