Foul play ruled out in body in Polson JENNIFER SMITH Morning Star Staff

Foul play is not suspected in the death of an unidentified man whose body was found in Polson Park Monday. The body was discovered near a gravel parking lot in the south end of the park near the Japanese Gardens at around 2 p.m. An autopsy completed Tuesday on the body determined it to be male. Initially, investigators could not even determine the age or sex of the victim. “Not at first glance,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. As of Tuesday afternoon, RCMP had few leads. “We’re still trying to identify who this individual is,” said Molendyk. The investigation has determined the body has been deceased for an indeterminable period of time. Investigators are also making inquiries and following up on reports of missing people. The case has been turned over to the coroner. All new details will be posted at www.vernonmorningstar.com as soon as they become available. Anyone with information about the body is asked to call the Vernon RCMP at 250-545-7171 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Film brings Hollywood stars to Enderby It’s becoming the worst kept secret in town, but there’s still a lot of mystery surrounding a major Hollywood movie. It’s believed Disney’s Tomorrowland is being partially shot in Enderby, Grindrod and Armstrong. The science fiction film stars George Clooney and Hugh Laurie. “I know a bunch of guys are staying at Fortune’s Landing and they are coming in here for breakfast,” said Greg McCune, with Sutherland’s Bakery in Enderby. “They were building sets early and picking

stuff up at the hardware store.” There have also been reports of crew members stopping at the Riverfront Pub in Grindrod. Much of the action will apparently focus in a corn field. The publicist for Tomorrowland could not be reached for comment George Clooney and the Okanagan Film Commission is reluctant to say anything. “All I can confirm is a large movie is

being shot in the region and there will be a significant impact in the community,” said John Trainor, Okanagan Film Commission chairperson. Enderby’s business leaders have even been kept in the dark. “We have no official Hugh Laurie word of anything,” said Corinne Peard, Enderby Chamber of Commerce general manager. But even the speculation is raising the

media profile of Enderby, Armstrong and Grindrod. “We’re getting a lot of attention right now,” said Peard. McCune believes a big-budget film will have a number of long-term benefits for the community, particularly by increasing the region’s profile. “As they get the filming going, it will be really exciting,” said McCune, who is an Enderby councillor. Parts of Tomorrowland are also being filmed in Vancouver and the movie is expected to be released in December 2014.

Flames ravage two Vernon residences An early-morning fire has left three Vernon residents homeless. Flames and smoke engulfed two homes in the 2200 block of 53rd Avenue at about 5:15 a.m. Tuesday. “It happened and we are OK,” said Warren Grabinsky as he watched the firefighters douse the remains of the home he and wife Shirley have lived in for eight years. The couple fled in their pajamas after hearing a noise and then discovering smoke. A woman in the adjacent home was also able to escape uninjured. All of the occupants have received support from Emergency Social Services. Among the first on scene was Brent Bond, a captain with the Vernon Fire Department. “There was extensive

flames coming from the roof to the point that we couldn’t gain access,” he said. “We had to park our truck farther away because of the heat.” With two homes engulfed by smoke and fire, a defensive attack was established to ensure the blaze didn’t spread to adjacent residences. “We lost two structures but we were able to save the third,” said Bond. Two natural gas lines were venting and that remained a challenge until sufficient manpower was on scene. “They kept fuelling the fire,” said Bond. The investigation for a cause continued throughout much of Tuesday. “There are potential sources we are looking at,” said Lawrie Skolrood, deputy fire chief.

One-way hits roadblock in Enderby richard rolke Morning Star Staff

A major traffic change has hit a dead end in downtown Enderby. Council members decided Monday to scrap plans for one-way traffic on Belvedere Street from Cliff to Mill avenues. “A traffic engineer has said it (two-way traffic) is a hazard but people are not content with it being one-way,” said Coun. Tundra Baird. The city had proposed the change because of safety concerns for motorists attempting to access Cliff Avenue from Belvedere Street. “A lot of people in town have missed the

“We have to find a way to reduce the risk.” — Tundra Baird

fact that the road (Belvedere) is too narrow,” said Coun. Greg McCune. “If you have two large trucks, you can’t even get them to pass each other. It’s a tricky road to travel down as is.” A majority of residents who provided

input on the one-way street concept were opposed, with many of them saying it would simply push traffic to other intersections. “They all had good reasons,” said Coun. Earl Shipmaker of the public feedback. “We need to look at the whole road network.” The city will now review Belvedere and Maud streets and see what improvements to traffic flow can be made. Among the possibilities is a three-way stop. “We have to find a way to reduce the risk. There are too many crosswalks overlapping and the sightlines are nil,” said Baird.

Paddleboards stolen from shop Morning Star Staff

Vernon-North Okanagan RCMP are looking for help in solving a break-in at a popular surf shop. Just after 1 a.m. Aug. 8, the Kalavida Surf Shop in the 13000 block of Kalamalka Road was broken into. “The exterior locker had two locks removed with what appeared to be a grinder,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. The lockers are on the northwest side of the building backing on to Vernon Creek. Stolen were five paddleboards with an approximate value of $13,000. “Indications are a pick-up truck was used by the suspects as they loaded the boards in the back and left,” said Molendyk. Anyone with any information is asked to call the RCMP at 250-545-7171, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

Members of the Independent Investigations Office scour the scene of an incident in Cranbrook on Oct. 3, 2012. The IIO’s report has led to charges against a former Vernon RCMP officer now stationed in Cranbrook.

A former Vernon RCMP officer has been charged in an October 2012 shooting incident of a Port Coquitlam man in Cranbrook. Const. Richard Drought faces charges of intentionally discharging a firearm into a motor vehicle, knowing that another person was in the motor vehicle, and of intentionally discharging a firearm while being reckless as to the life or safety of another person. Drought was stationed in Vernon from 2004 to 2008. According to the statement released by the B.C. Criminal Justice Branch on Thursday, Aug. 8, the charges were laid by a senior prosecutor who doesn’t work in the Kootenays. The man injured in the incident was Nickolas Bullock. According to RCMP statements at the time, a police officer was stationed at the southwest end of Cranbrook conducting a road block when he saw a suspect vehicle. The officer tried to pull over the vehicle; when it did not stop, the officer gave chase. That chase ended in a rural Cranbrook driveway. The officer allegedly discharged his firearm. Bullock, 26, was allegedly injured but appeared in Cranbrook Provincial Court one week later. The 17-year-old female occupant of the vehicle was not injured. Civilian police watchdog the Independent Investigations Office was called in to investigate the police-involved shooting. On April 3, the Independent Investigations Office forwarded a report to the Criminal Justice Branch, which they do only when they feel there may be grounds to lay charges. Drought is slated to appear in Cranbrook Provincial Court Sept. 16. Meanwhile, Bullock has pleaded guilty to four charges in relation to the same incident, including dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and flight from a police officer. He will be sentenced in Port Coquitlam Oct. 8.

Vernon bypass sought richard rolke Morning Star Staff

One politician insists an alternate route must be found before Vernon is paralyzed by permanent grid-lock. Coun. Bob Spiers told his colleagues Monday that a bypass around Vernon is needed and he is suggesting the west side of Okanagan Lake. “It could be a potential long-term bypass,” he said of the option which could see traffic not needing to stop in Vernon diverted off Highway 97 altogether. The options for the west side of Okanagan Lake could include the existing Westside Road or a new high-elevation road from the Okanagan Connector, near Peachland, to Highway 97, near O’Keefe Ranch. Spiers says he is increasingly concerned about traffic volume in Vernon. “We are getting more and more traffic right through town. The truckers would prefer not to come right through town.” A long-standing concern is that a large truck could go out of control on Hospital Hill and careen into downtown Vernon, placing residents at serious risk. While the west side of Okanagan Lake is outside of Vernon’s jurisdiction, Spiers says such a trans-

“We are getting more and more traffic.” — Bob Spiers

portation corridor should be supported in the city’s official community plan and the provincial government should be made aware of the concept. The issue of an alternate route has been on the backburner since 2008 when a majority of thencouncil voted to shelve a proposed western bypass, which would have gone through Mission Hill, Okanagan Landing and Bella Vista neighbourhoods before linking back up with the highway at Swan Lake. Instead, the city decided to focus on long-term traffic issues through aggressive transportation demand management, such as transit, walking and bicycling. Spiers, who was not on council in 2008, believes scrapping the western bypass was a mistake. “If we had kept it in the plan, it still would be possible,” he said.

Lower fee for some volunteers richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Some volunteers will get a break when it comes to criminal record checks. Vernon council has decided to provide a 75 per cent discount for criminal record checks for people who receive financial assistance. The full fee is $25. “I would have preferred no charge for that group of volunteers,” said Coun. Juliette Cunningham, adding that they are wanting to be active in the community and even a reduced fee could be financially challenging. “They are volunteering for another group.” Mayor Rob Sawatzky believes the policy is simply a starting point. “We could change this in the future if we felt we

Funds sought richard rolke Morning Star Staff

A program that provides youth with leadership skills is seeking support. The Jean Minguy Memorial RCMP Youth Academy has asked the City of Vernon to renew a three-year funding agreement for $6,000 a year. The program draws between 45 and 55 cadets a year. “We have brought in young people struggling in school and we have seen the successes,” said Kathy Szoboticsanec, program co-ordinator. If council approves the agreement, funding will begin in 2014.

“I would have preferred no charge.” — Cunningham

needed to,” he said. To be eligible for the 75 per cent discount, an individual must receive financial assistance from regular income assistance benefits, persons with disability, persons with persistent and multiple barriers, Canadian pension disability or the guaranteed income supplement for seniors.

Plan proceeds for roundabout Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

A roundabout in Coldstream remains a distant possibility, and only as a last resort. Debate has been going in circles over the past few months over the potential of a roundabout at the Kalamalka and Kidston road intersection. “Nothing needs to be done at this time, it’s adequate,” said Mayor Jim Garlick. Now the focus is on preparing a shelf-ready design for the future (10 to 20 years from now) potential need for a roundabout as well as upgrading the creek crossing. “Those who fail to plan, plan to fail,” said Coun. Richard Enns of the need to do the study, which some councillors are not in favour of. Coun. Doug Dirk adds: “If we were to put this aside or bury it for now, it would not be responsible.

“You can’t say that there won’t be a need for the future.” The study could cost the district up to $10,000, while a $10,000 grant will be utilized to make up the remaining cost. “When we have to deal with the culvert we may be forced into dealing with the intersection at the same time,” said Trevor Seibel, director of financial administration. Councillors Maria Besso and Gyula Kiss are opposed to the plan. “It’s a rouse,” said Besso, noting declining school enrollment that she doesn’t foresee increasing to the point of creating traffic problems at the intersection. Kiss, who has lived on Kidston Road since 1976, agrees. “If we’re going to need something in 20 years we can always revisit it in 20 years and that way someone else is paying for it.”

Golf course strata pitched roger knox Morning Star Staff

A gated golf community is being teed up in Armstrong. Local realtor Patrick Place has applied to the city to rezone property at the Royal York Golf Course into a strata development. “We’re planning 46 units,” said Place. There would be 15 large lots 60 x 140 in size, another 15 lots would be 40 x 100 and there would be 16 duplex-style townhouses. The development would be located on the existing RV park and

general objectives of the city’s official community plan. Armstrong council approved first two readings of the bylaw application, and a public hearing on the matter has been scheduled for 7 p.m. on Monday, Oct. 14 in council chambers at city hall. Place will hold an open house on his proposal on Wednesday, Sept. 11, at 7 p.m. at the Royal York Golf Course.

Don’t Let Your Windows Leave You In A Fog Dirty Foggy Windows

Many homes built between the late 70s and the early 90s experience sealed unit failure. Unit failure leads to condensation forming between the two layers of glass causing them to steam and fog up.

Is There a Solution?

Yes, the only real solution is to replace the sealed unit. You only need to replace the glass not the frame which means it can be done easily with a minimum amount of disruption.

Council shoots down IPE fireworks proposal roger knox Morning Star Staff

A Kelowna company had hoped to help the City of Armstrong celebrate its 100th birthday with fireworks during the upcoming Interior Provincial Exhibition. The city, however, has said thanks but no thanks. Black Match Pyrotechnics wrote a letter to council saying they had been approached by the IPE to provide a pair of pyrotechnic shows during the annual fall fair. One would have taken place during the rodeo using indoor pyrotechnics, the other would have been an aerial fireworks display. Both shows had been slated for Aug. 28. Mayor Chris Pieper said there were a number of issues council considered in regards to the proposal before unanimously voting against it. “It’s the time of the year and there’s a fire ban currently in place,” said Pieper. “Two, there’s all of the livestock at the fairground and we had concerns about the amount of

animals and people around.” The city’s fire prevention bylaw requires written permission from the fire chief for any discharging of fireworks outside the period of Oct. 24 to Nov. 1. Fire chief Ian

Cummings told staff he would not provide permission for a fireworks display during the IPE. The city hosts fireworks on Halloween. “We’ll stick with that,” said Pieper. “There are no animals around at that time and no fire hazards.”

Off to the polls

dvocates for Greater Vernon’s cultural amenities are tired of sitting on the sidelines after years of political indifference. That’s why the Vernon Public Art Gallery and Greater Vernon Museum are pushing for a referendum on new facilities in the spring instead of November 2014 when residents will also elect new mayors and councils. “We felt cultural services, especially the two projects working together, deserve to be highlighted in their own merit and not clouded by the municipal election and issues associated with the election,” said Dauna Kennedy Grant, VPAG executive Richard Rolke director. “We felt it was really important that we got cultural services out there ahead of time so it can stand on its own, so we can educate people about the projects and have a fair shot at having a successful referendum.” Obviously, municipal elections, and particularly campaigning for mayor, could overshadow attempts to convince voters that the benefits of an expanded gallery and museum outweigh additional taxes. It could also be a platform for some candidates, particularly those who classify themselves as fiscal watchdogs. However, that wasn’t the situation in November 1999. Not only did Greater Vernon residents elect new mayors, councillors and electoral directors then, they also enthusiastically endorsed borrowing funds for the Performing Arts Centre and Kal Tire Place. If anything, there was considerable interest among the electorate because new faces were being swept into office after years of

perceived stagnation and action was finally being taken on a long talked about arena and theatre. Because people are heading out to vote during a civic election any how, it’s natural to assume there will be increased participation in the referendum and the outcome will be more reflective of the community’s wishes. Stand-alone referendums, on the other hand, have notoriously poor turnouts. Case in point is April’s sports complex referendum which only drew 18 per cent of eligible voters. Based on that, some people continue to question the validity of the project proceeding. By holding off until November 2014, cultural boosters can capitalize on the excitement that revolves around civic elections. Candidates for mayor and council can be lobbied for support and forums provide a venue to generate broader public awareness. They will also have more time to convince residents that a new gallery and museum are critical to the community socially and economically. That extra time could pay off at the polls. Another factor to consider is dollars and cents. April’s stand-alone referendum on the sports complex cost $61,400, whereas there would be little overhead if held in conjunction with already scheduled elections. At a time of fiscal challenges, any possibility of saving money should be considered. In the end, though, the exact month of a referendum is irrelevant. What is critically important is that Greater Vernon residents finally have their say on the future of culture, and 2014 is that time.

Actor George Takei has started a petition to have the Sochi Olympics moved from Russia to Canada while U.S. President Barack Obama has cancelled a summit with Russia’s Vladimir Putin. While Obama’s reasons for cancelling the summit are many, one of them is Russia’s crackdown on civil rights…namely new laws that almost make homosexuality a crime. John Baird, Canada’s foreign affairs minister, has also denounced Russia’s controversial new anti-gay law as hateful. Kudos to Baird, Takei and Obama for taking a stand. It’s time, however, that the International Olympic Committee took a stand. Too often the powers-that-be look the other way when dealing with countries rife with human rights abuses. Or, they rationalize that in doing business with such countries, the abusers will see the folly of their ways and change. That simply doesn’t happen. When it comes to the Olympics, the IOC is the first to tout itself as a worldwide organization touting inclusiveness, etc. In fact, the second principle stated in the Olympic Charter reads: “The goal of Olympism is to place sport at the service of the harmonious development of humankind, with a view to promoting a peaceful society concerned with the preservation of human dignity.” So what does the IOC have to say about Russia instituting homophobic laws? “The IOC has received assurances from the highest level of government in Russia that the legislation will not affect those attending or taking part in the Games.” In other words, hold your nose and dive right in. – Black Press

Spray park needs attention

udos to the citizens of Lumby for building such an awesome spray park for their kids. Spray parks are popping up all over North America because they are a cost-effective way to provide safe water-based recreation with low maintenance and almost zero labour costs. Vernon was one of the early adopters of spray parks with its facility at Polson Park. Over the years, spray park designers have discovered that children, especially toddlers, like water features which come up or sideways. Most spray parks tend not to have features which rain down water from heights. When these features are included, the water falling from above tends to be timed with a tippy-bucket or a predictably timed dump of water. In Regina, one park has a wonderful dragon which blows a huge stream of water on to the kids every 15 minutes. It's delightful to see hordes of kids

cattLe woes Recently, as I was coming home for lunch, on the outskirts of Armstrong, I looked ahead on the road I was to turn on to and couldn't believe I was seeing a herd of cows getting ready to cross Highway 97A. My survival reaction kicked in and all I knew was I needed to stop this from happening before someone got really hurt. As you know with the summer traffic, there was a steady stream of traffic. I used my car and actually cut them off and rounded up what turned out to be 14 cows right into my driveway at the corner, and shut the gate. Being a city person, I was shocked I even did that. After three hours of these captured cows on my property, which trampled my flowers, broke my trees and bushes and broke a flower pot that meant a lot to me, my husband finally found where they had come from. To the owner of those 14 cows,

come screaming to be sprayed with water by the dragon. The Polson Park spray park, unfortunately, is almost all high rain-down water sprays which go on for extended time periods. This is the main reason it is not used as extensively as it could be. I believe a re-work is needed for the Polson Park spray park to take advantage of new understandings in spray park design. In addition, I would commend converting the Lakeview Park peanut pool to a spray park similar to the Lumby spray park. In the summer, two lifeguards are needed to ensure the safety of the children. These labour costs could be eliminated by moving to a spray park design while also enhancing the recreation experience for children. James Love

I saved your cows and probably saved a whole lot of people which would have amounted to a huge law suit. You are welcome. I would do it again. Rose sanjenko cRitic Responds Re: “NDP soul search going nowhere” (B.C. Views). Climate change is a reality, and bold political leadership is needed to address it. During the election campaign, New Democrats put forward a plan to expand the base of the carbon tax to include venting emissions from oil and gas operations, capturing an additional five per cent of carbon emissions in the province, but that plan didn't include all industrial process emissions. We believe that government should work with the oil and gas sector to make sure companies pay their fair share for the emissions they produce. This is particularly important as the B.C. Liberal government

pursues an aggressive schedule of LNG expansion which, if realized, will make it nearly impossible for the government to reach our legal emission reduction requirements. New Democrats will hold the government to account for its green promises, and continue to advocate for policies that help reduce emissions and spur efficiency, innovation and best practices. spencer chandra Hebert, ndp environment critic

enormous at times. The price in Vernon has been up to 14 cents per litre higher than the price in Kamloops on the same day. Recently, for example, the lowest price in Kamloops was $126.9 while in Vernon (at every station) it was $135.9. That's the rub, that you fail to address in your editorial. Why is it so much more in Vernon than Kamloops? Why is the price always the same at every station in Vernon? Cities such as Penticton and Revelstoke have different prices at different stations, but no not Vernon. Please do an editorial on the real story instead of blathering on about fuel taxes being the sole reason. J. grindler

gas pRices I just read the editorial in the paper about gas prices. It seems that you missed the point when you mentioned the "grousing" going on about high gas prices. The real stinker here is not the taxes piled on the price at the pump, although it is worth mentioning, but the difference in Vernon gas prices and Kamloops prices. Both have the dreaded taxes added. However, the discrepancy between these two cities is

Stage has all the right moves SALMON ARM — Coming up on its fourth year, the Roots & Rhythms Dance Stage began with a passion to engage Roots & Blues Festival attendees in the art of dance. From yoga to salsa, jive, African fusion, Hoola-hooping, and lots more, this interactive dance stage offers you the opportunity to learn more about dance around the world. It welcomes beginners with two left feet and those with more experience, hungry for a taste of world-wide dance styles from a selection of highly skilled instructors. The atmosphere is vibrant and energized, yet set at a relaxed and supportive pace so even the most timid dancers will soon feel at ease. Dancers with experience are there, happy to partner up and support, with one-on-one encouragement and assistance. Take your first step towards never being nervous about dancing again. Be sure to watch the instructors’ Performance Showcase, then hop up on the dance platform for fun, laughter, and a great festival spirited dance experience. This year’s workshops include FestiDance, a unique and energizing dance experience which fuses elements of urban street styles with folky roots. Instructor Slava Doval will have you learning new moves you can take to the dance floor for the festival headliners. Doval is a passionate dance performer and teacher who infuses her globally minded movements with grace and presence while exploring the common thread in dances from around the world. She’s currently busy teaching, creating choreography, artistic direction and costumes for Slava’s DanceFusion, a holistic dance school in Nelson. Her style is a fusion of old world roots and new times sensibility, blending culture, movement and community to create an expression of joy, presence, discipline and grace. Her dance style is an organic blend of her Slovak roots, contemporary technique, Folklorico, Afro-Latin, Balkan, Bollywood, Cumbia, urban street styles and more.

Doval brought her joyful dance last year to Salmon Arm with the Adham Shaikh Outworld Orkestra, and is excited to be teaching at this year’s festival. Maybe jive’s your thing, with its pumped up energy, quick steps and sharp turns enhancing the fun and spirited sensation of the music or perhaps you prefer something more exotic like Bachata which grew out of the dance styles of bolero and meringue and originated in the rural neighbourhoods of the Dominican Republic. For sheer fun try Hula Hooping 4 Guys n’ Gals and learn to spin the hoop from head to toe. Looking for more? Check out the salsa and African dance workshops and then cool it all down with yoga. If you’re tuckered out just stand back and enjoy one of the many performer showcases this weekend. The performers and instructors this year are among B.C.’s finest and deliver an amazing show. nnn City and Colour, the moniker of singer-songwriter Dallas Green and undeniably one of the biggest groundswell stories in Canadian music, will be headlining the 21st Annual Salmon Arm Roots and Blues Festival on Sunday. With three JUNOs under his belt, and three platinum-selling albums, Green is gearing up to release his fourth City and Colour studio album this summer. City and Colour’s most current LP Little Hell debuted at number-one on the Top 200 SoundScan Chart in Canada, number-two in Australia, and 28 in the U.S. City and Colour’s last Canadian tour sold out in minutes, and came on the heels of an international run with sold-out shows across the U.S., U.K. and Europe. After his appearance at SXSW, City and Colour heads to the U.S. where Green was invited by P!NK to open three arena dates on her upcoming U.S. tour, before heading to perform as direct support for Biffy Clyro’s extensive U.K. run.

ers respond to the physical and mental demands of the sport in different ways. Carroll, who has defied death on more than one occasion, is beginning to be aware of his own mortality under the pressures of aging and fatherhood. Clarke-Jones seems to grow more fearless each day and shows no sign of slowing down. The compelling drama is set against sublime cinematography — never has the ocean appeared more terrifyingly beautiful on the screen. The innovative camera techniques allow viewers to drop virtually into a 50-foot wave, carve down its face, and slip into a perfect barrel, all from the comfort of their theatre seat. Storm Surfers is about friendship, adventure, and the miraculous things the human mind and body are capable of. Carroll's brother says, “What we see on screen...is that they are adolescents living in aging bodies on land. Out on the ocean they can still fly like superheroes.” Storm Surfers will be shown at the Towne

Surfers ride the waves in awe-inspiring documentary Special to The Morning Star

As its last film of the summer season, the Vernon Film Society presents the aweinspiring documentary Storm Surfers. The film follows two Australian best mates, approaching their 50s, who travel the southern hemisphere pursuing one of the world’s most deadly and exhilarating sports: big wave surfing. Two-time world champion Tom Carroll and legendary big wave rider Ross ClarkeJones chase the world’s largest and most powerful waves — swells rising in height as high as the Sydney Opera House. As the two are led to ever more remote, unpredictable, and dangerous locations, the risks and the payoffs escalate with each wave. With this playful, touching, and visually stunning film, veteran surf documentarians Christopher Nelius and Justin McMillian capture the notion that surfing is as much a state of mind as it is a sport. The surf-

of interest in Fifty Shades of Gray, Hooks would be placed nearby for the content involved the sex trade but it was somewhat misplaced for Hooks is not an erotic book. Hooks is more often placed in the vicinity of foreign subject matter or sociology and this is more appropriate to the subject matter.” The book is filled with rich, vivid imagery that portrays everything from the disturbing, dark side of prostitution in India to a compelling tale of love, adventure and intrigue. “I have spoken on Hooks in terms of widening compassion for the rights of women. As Hooks enters its second year, it has begun to walk, taking baby steps out into the world.” Oakes will sign copies of Hooks this Saturday at Bookland in Vernon from noon to 3 p.m.

Aussie photographer takes up residence Morning Star Staff

Australian photographer Tracey Nearmy has taken a leave of absence from the Australian Associated Press to take up her post as artist in residence at the Caetani Cultural Centre. The centre hosts a meet-the-artist event Thursday from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. during the members’ reception. Nearmy is working on a documentary series of life around Swan Lake, Okanagan Lake and Kalamalka Lake.

“I’m focusing on how the people of Vernon interact with the lake ecosystems and incorporate them into their everyday lives in acts of recreation, ritual and survival, particularly focusing on how children now see and learn from this unique landscape,” she said. “As we as humans close the door on our tactile environment choosing more and more to live in the cerebral landscape of screens, I am interested in exploring

our decreasing interactions with the natural world, particularly from the view of the child. “As they grow up with an almost intuitive understanding of computer systems so different from the previous generations, does it change how they learn and interact with the natural environment?” Nearmy began her career at a community newspaper in Adelaide and has worked for numerous publications throughout Australia. She is currently travelling during a leave of absence from her staff photographer position with AAP, Australia’s national news wire service.

Nearmy is working in the region at various locations and can be found on-site at the Allan Brooks Nature Centre from 9:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. most Tuesdays to Fridays. On Aug. 20, she is guest speaker at the Sunset Speaker Series at the ABNC from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. She will be at the Viva d’Arte Art Market at Caetani Saturday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and will lead a photography workshop on environmental portraiture Aug. 23 from 4 to 6 p.m. at the Caetani Centre.

Sweet treatment for zucchini

he zucchini is probably one of the most prolific and versatile summer squashes grown in our area. It can be stuffed, sautéed, grilled, baked, stir-fried into countless recipes, sliced and baked into pizzas, casseroles and any dish imaginable. Zucchini can be made into crispy fries, fritters, salads, cakes, breads, cookies, cobblers, crisps, and many other desserts, just to name Cathi Litzenberger a few. So for all you home gardeners with an excess of zucchini, this is the time to share. PineaPPle Zucchini Sheet cake with cream cheeSe FroSting 1 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 cup whole wheat pastry flour (you can use white flour if you don’t have this) 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar 1/2 cup sweetened, flaked coconut 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, or more to taste (optional) 1 pinch ginger (optional) 3 Tablespoons canola oil 2 whole large eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups grated (unpeeled) zucchini (see note below) 1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice, drained (reserve juice for cake batter or frosting) Frosting: 2 Tablespoons butter, softened 1 package (8 oz.) low-fat cream cheese, softened (you can also use full-fat) 2 cups powdered sugar, more or less

kitchen wit & wisdom

as needed 2 teaspoons vanilla extract Splash of milk or pineapple juice, if necessary Chopped walnuts or pecans (optional) Preheat oven to 350 F. To prepare cake, lightly spoon flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife. Combine flours, sugar, coconut, baking soda, salt, and spices in a large bowl; stir well with a whisk. Combine oil, eggs, and vanilla; stir well. Stir egg mixture, grated zucchini, and pineapple into the flour mixture. Batter will be stiff and dry but keep folding it and it will all come together. If it still seems too dry, just add a little splash of the pineapple juice. Spoon batter into a 13 x 9-inch baking pan coated with cooking spray. Bake at 350 for 33–35 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in the centre comes out with moist crumbs and cake is pulling away from sides of pan. Cool completely on a wire rack. To prepare frosting, combine butter and cream cheese in a large bowl. Beat with a mixer at medium speed until smooth. Beat in powdered sugar and vanilla just until smooth. Add a splash of milk or pineapple juice if necessary. Spread frosting over top of cake. You can garnish with chopped pecans or walnuts, if desired. Notes: If your zucchini are huge, scrape the seeds out of the centre before you shred it so it’s not too watery. Also, I spread it all out on layers of paper towel to drain it and dry it off a bit. Then I measure out 2 cups. I’m not sure if this is critical, though. Nuts can also be added to the cake batter if desired. This recipe makes a very generous amount of frosting. This recipe can be turned into a Carrot Cake just by substituting shredded carrots for the zucchini.

Zucchini chocolate cake 2 cups all-purpose flour 2 cups white sugar 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder 2 teaspoons baking soda 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon 4 eggs 1-1/2 cups vegetable oil 3 cups grated zucchini 3/4 cups chopped walnuts (optional) Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan. In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, salt and cinnamon. Add the eggs and oil, mix well. Fold in the nuts and zucchini until they are evenly distributed. Pour into the prepared pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes in the preheated oven, until a knife inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool cake completely before frosting with your favourite frosting. Fudge Frosting 2 cups sugar 1 cup unsweetened baking cocoa 1 cup milk (regular, lactose free, almond or soy) 1/2 cup butter/margarine 1/4 cup light corn syrup 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 teaspoons vanilla 2 1/2- 3 cups powdered sugar In medium sauce pan, mix sugar and cocoa. Stir in milk, butter/margarine, corn syrup and salt. Heat to boiling, stirring frequently. Boil 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cool for 45 minutes. Beat in vanilla and enough powdered sugar for spreading consistency. Leftover frosting can be tightly covered and refrigerated up to 5 days or frozen up to one month.

Public missing message on fire ban Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

Despite crisp conditions that have forced fire bans throughout the region, some members of the public remain ignorant to the rules. Open burning and campfire bans remain in effect throughout the Kamloops Fire Centre yet there have been three incidents of non-compliance in the Vernon zone over the weekend. “We just really need the public to be compliant,” said Melissa Welsh, fire information officer “It’s definitely a concern for us given the fact that we’re very busy dealing with naturallyoccurring wildfires and we’re still getting non-compliance with fire bans in the Vernon area.” The weekend’s lightning storms sparked 76 fires throughout the Kamloops Fire Centre, eight of which were in

the North Okanagan (all spot-sized). Three were started Monday morning: south of Silver Star, by Sugar Mountain and northeast of Hidden Lake. Two were sparked Sunday: near Shuswap Creek and southwest of

Revelstoke. Lightning sparked three fires Saturday: two on the Monashee Mountains and one southwest of Revelstoke. To ensure B.C. Wildfire resources are not tied-up with human-caused fires, the

Cash lifts Buy Local campaign Morning Star Staff

Shoppers will be able to identify B.C. foods for family meals, school snacks and even pet food, as a result of a branding program the B.C. Food Processors Association (BCFPA) is developing through $65,000 in Buy Local Program funding. The BCFPA is developing both in-store and web materials to help shoppers recognize and choose the wide range of products their members make in British Columbia. More than 130 BCFPA members produce thousands of products that can add local flavours and adventure to dining options. “This province has an incredible range of local, high-quality, food options and the Buy Local Program

is all about making it easier for folks to identify them and support local products and jobs,” said agriculture minister Pat Pimm. “The BCFPA project will lead to new opportunities for B.C.’s food processors, and help consumers choose B.C. foods every day of the year.” Products that consumers will be able to identify include baked goods, beverages (including beer, coffee and wine), dairy, meat and seafood, fruit and vegetable products, ethnic specialties with global flavours, natural health products and pet food. The BCFPA will launch the program in multiple locations throughout the province this fall. The Buy Local program offers successful applicants matching funds up to $100,000 to launch or expand local food marketing campaigns.

One hundred and seventy-four youth from across Western Canada will spend 10 days practicing practical outdoors and life skills as well as volunteering for local not-for-profits while staying at the Vernon Army Cadet Training Centre. “The youth will be participating in our basic and advanced enhanced training sessions,” said Capt. Scott Macdonald, Junior Canadian Rangers commanding officer. “They’ll work on a variety of traditional, outdoor and life skills, as well as having tons of fun.” The youth will spend time learning first aid, navigation, shelter building and other skills, rock climbing, white water rafting, canoeing and mountain biking, as well as volunteering at a number of different not-for-profit organizations. While similar to the cadet program, the Junior Canadian Rangers are a separate initiative of the Canadian Forces, which aims to provide a structured youth program promoting traditional cultures and lifestyles to 3,400 JCRs in 119 remote and isolated communities across Canada. The program promotes healthy living and positive selfimage, and reflects the proud legacy of the Canadian Rangers, who are reservists providing military presence in northern, coastal and isolated Canada.

Anything is Pospisil at Rogers Cup ED KLAJMAN For The Morning Star

TORONTO – It was a dream week that stunned the tennis world and has forever changed Vasek Pospisil’s life. The tennis professional who learned how to play the game as a toddler in Vernon arrived in Montreal last Monday for the Rogers Cup as a Canadian wildcard with little fanfare. Understandably, most of the attention was focused on the megastars of the sport – Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Andy Murray, as well as Canadian No. 1 Milos Raonic. Pospisil had taken the red-eye flight from Vancouver Sunday night, where he had just won the VanOpen, a Challenger event that is akin to the minor leagues of tennis. It was his second Challenger title of the year, and fourth of his career, and showed that he was coming to the Montreal Masters Series tournament – one of the most elite international events on the tennis calendar – in good form. He was anxious to see how he could do against the world’s best. Six days, four victories and one heartbreakingly narrow defeat later, he’s the talk of the ATP Tour – seeing his ranking jump from 71st in the world last week all the way to No. 40 at the start of this week, with many observers believing he’s on the fast track toward being a global superstar in the sport. “I learned I have the level to play with these (top) guys,” said the 23-year-old, shortly after his remarkable run ended with a tough semifinal loss to Raonic, in a match that made Canadian tennis history with two Canucks reaching the final four of a Masters Series event for the first time. “It’s not like I won (just) one match. In the years before, I would win one match on pure adrenaline. This year I had good wins, and I had good wins in the weeks leading up to this. I feel like now it’s a little different this time around. I feel like I’m much more confident in my abilities and where my game is right now.” Pospisil thanked the people of his hometown of Vernon, where he learned to play the game before moving to Vancouver about 10 years ago to get the level of training needed to become a pro. He said it meant a lot to him that everyone in Vernon has been cheering him on – not just this week, but all through the years leading up to this breakthrough. “I get a lot of messages on social media. I have a lot of support,” he said. “It’s always great knowing people are aware of what I’m doing over there because Vernon, I grew up

Tennis Canada PhoTo

A jubilant Vasek Pospisil waves to a pro-Canadian crowd after a win at last week’s Rogers Cup in Montreal. Pospisil, a 23-year-old Vernon product, vaulted to a career-high No. 40 in the ATP men’s singles standings after reaching the quarterfinals. there. It’s my hometown. It’s a special thing for me. I grew up playing on cracked high school courts with my dad. Hopefully, something good for the community will come out of this.” Because of his phenomenal play at the Rogers Cup, Pospisil gained a direct entry into the main draw of the tour’s next Masters Series event in Cincinnati this week. His magical month got even sweeter Tuesday when No. 15 Gilles Simon of France retired (injury) with Pospisil up 6-3, 1-1 at the $3.7 million Western & Southern Open. Pospisil’s Rogers Cup run also guaranteed him a spot in the main draw of the final Grand Slam tournament of the year, the U.S. Open in New York, which begins at the end of August. After that, he will travel to Serbia to represent Canada in the Davis Cup semifinals, where he hopes to make more Canadian tennis history. Pospisil’s Week in Montreal: Tuesday, Aug. 6: Pospisil after beating No.

22-ranked John Isner (USA) 5-7, 7-6, 7-6 in the first round – “It was incredible. You can see the smile on my face. That explains it all. Especially winning against a player like him makes it even more special here in Montreal. I hope I will experience that many more times because this is exactly the reason why I’m playing tennis, just to live those moments.” Wednesday, Aug. 7: Pospisil after beating No. 57-ranked Radek Stepanek (Czech Republic) 6-2, 6-4 in the second round – “Confidence is extremely important. I step onto the court not worrying so much about winning. I don’t feel the stress much. It makes a great difference. When you are confident, everything goes well.” Thursday, Aug: 8: Pospisil after beating world No. 6 Tomas Berdych (Czech Republic) 7-5, 2-6, 7-6 in the third round – “I feel I can play with anybody now. I just beat a guy sixth in the world. That’s huge for me. The key was really not thinking too much out there, when there’s big moments, stick to the patterns, try

to be solid. Obviously, I was fortunate that it worked out.” Friday, Aug. 9: Pospisil after beating No. 38 Nikolay Davydenko (Russia) 3-0 (retired with bronchitis/breathing problems) in the quarterfinals – “It came at a perfect time to have a bit of a rest. Even through three games, I was really trying to catch my breath. It felt like I had a bit of sore legs, making me a little bit tired. But I was hitting the ball well.” Saturday, Aug. 10: Pospisil after losing to No. 10 Raonic 6-4, 1-6, 7-6: “Definitely a tough loss for me. I had chances, then he played well in some moments. Others, I made a few mistakes I haven’t been making this week and wouldn’t normally make. We played each other so many times. We grew up together. I don’t think either one wanted to lose. Maybe if it was somebody else, who knows, maybe I would have won and I wouldn’t have gotten a little bit nervous at the end. I think somebody had to lose it and unfortunately for me it was me.”

Athletes in the men’s and mix crews race to their boats in a Le Mans-style start at the National Iron Outrigger Championships Saturday at Kin Beach. Right: Penticton was the first team to cross the finish line in the junior mixed category.

Vernon paddlers hit national podium CHRISTINE CASTRUCOW For The Morning Star

The Vernon Paddling Centre played host to more than 200 paddlers in the National Iron Outrigger Race last weekend on Okanagan Lake. Several Vernon paddlers earned medals in both the six-man outrigger races Saturday and the small-boat races Sunday. The novice women’s race (12 kilometres) was won by Burnaby’s Lotus Sports Club, primarily made up of juniors. They covered the route in one hour, three minutes and 20 seconds. The Calgary women came in at 1:21:34. Calgary took the men’s novice race in 1:02:19, with Lotus following up in 1:14:13. The mixed short course was won by a crew of juniors from Penticton, who dashed off the start line and placed first overall, in 1:02:19. Vancouver Ocean Sports took second and third with times of 1:07:06 and 1:13:00, respectively. As expected in the women’s long course (24- km), the team out of False Creek in Vancouver took first spot in 2:10:24. Calgary 1 came second in 2:13:12 and Kelowna, with local Christine Castrucow steering for the crew, placed third in 2:15:45. Also with Kelowna were Kerry Willis, Kathy Montgomery, Leanne Stanley, Sandra Mowat and Shannon Bliss. Vernon also had an entry in the mixed division with the local crew taking first in their masters division (second overall) in 2:15:42. Crew members included Monika Lawrence, Denys Lawrence, Debbie Jones, Sandy Cook,

Scott McKenzie, who paddled his first race, and Gregg Cancade who recently came out of paddling retirement to compete. Penticton, who were an open team, posted 2:10:38, defending their 2012 title. Vernon’s men’s team also won the masters division in 1:58:27, just 28 seconds ahead of Calgary. Racing for Vernon were Bob Woodman, Kim Doleszar, Glenn Bond, Ian Chadwick, Ken Crosby and import Greg Blackman of Prince George. The men’s open category was won by Geronimo out of Victoria who ripped up the course in 1:54:53. Sunday saw close to 60 surf skis, OC-1’s and OC-2’s hit the waves competing on an 11 km route. There were 49 boats in the small-boat category and the winner was surfski paddler Shane Martin of False Creek, in 50:26. Runner-up was Paul Hardy, also on a surfski, in the senior master men’s category in 53:37. Third overall was an over-60 team from Calgary on an OC2 Golden Master. John Roberts and Jon Amundsen finished in 54:45. Fifth overall was the team of Doleszar and Castrucow in an OC2, in 56:16. They won the Mixed Masters category. Race sponsors were: Silver Star Mountain Resort, Fresh Air Experience,

Ogopogos wrap up in Italy Taped, tired, battered and bruised, the Westlake Tire/Arrowhead Electric Ogopogos patched together a 10-man roster for their Saturday bronze-medal soccer match in Torino, Italy. The Ogopogos even got creative and pulled Vernon’s Marty Stein, a spectator and volunteer medic, out of the stands and put him in net. The Vernon 50+ entry, with guest players from all over the planet, put in a valiant effort before falling 4-1 to Australia. The Australians took an early 2-0 lead in the first half. Just before the half ended, the Aussies added a third on a 2-on-0 breakaway from centre after an apparent missed offside call. Keeper-turned-forward Brad Rist, of California, buried a shot to the corner off a beautiful effort and pass from Vernon’s Parm Kler, for the Ogopogos’ goal. The Aussies recorded a late goal for the medal.

Props went to the wounded warriors who were able to play all seven games in Italy: Dave Hampton, Jim Sparrow, Kler and Kerry Zubot, all of Vernon, Jose Oreamuno, Rist, Eric Stepura, Gary Spencer and Simon Pendlebury. Stepura is a 1974 VSSS grad now living in Vancouver. “Most of the talk from other teams was that we had the best team in the group to take it all and it was unfortunate for our injuries and early departures,” said Zubot, who organized the team. Sparrow and Stein were on the Vernon entry which struck bronze at the 2005 World Masters Games in Edmonton. More than 50,000 athletes competed in Italy, The next Games are in Auckland, New Zealand.

Thunder to face Rocks Morning Star Staff

It will be the league’s best defence versus the top offence as the host Langley Thunder and Victoria Shamrocks tangle in the Western Lacrosse Association final starting tonight at the Events Centre. The two-time defending champion Thunder, anchored by Vernon netminder Brodie MacDonald, posted a stingy 7.61 goals-against average, while the high-flying Rocks racked up 11.05 goals per game. Langley finished atop the WLA with an 11-52 record, two points ahead of the second-place Shamrocks (11-7). The Thunder won the regularseason series 2-1. The Thunder returned to the final after sweeping the Coquitlam Adanacs 4-0 in their best-of seven semifinal, ending with an 11-9 win Saturday at the Coquitlam Sports Centre. Shayne Jackson, with four goals and three assists, and Garrett Billings, with 2+3, powered the Thunder offence. Adam Jones (2), Brett Mydske, Daniel McQuade and Mike Grimes also found the net. MacDonald finished with 38 saves. Langley never trailed in Game 4, leading 4-2 after one period and 8-5 after 40 minutes. The Shamrocks earned their first finals appearance since 2010 by sweeping the Burnaby Lakers. Victoria outlasted Burnaby 10-7 in Sunday’s Game 4, with four-point nights coming from Corey Small (3+1), Rhys Duch (2+2), Brody Eastwood (1+4) and Jeff Shattler (4A). They outscored Burnaby 51-29 in the series. The Irish are led offensively by Cory Conway (20-67-87 in 18 games) and Small (42-44-86 in 18 games), who ranked second and third, respectively, in regular-season scoring. “They have a lot of firepower; they really loaded up to make a run,” Langley coach Rod Jensen told Black Press. “If we are disciplined, we should be good... (because) a team like that will really make you pay.”

Notebook FASTBALL - The Vernon Mixed Orthodox (no windmill pitching) is looking for new teams and/or players for a season scheduled from Aug. 12 until the end of September. Teams will play once a week. Call Dennis Einarson @ 250-306-0378.

“He came into the competition highly ranked, and that creates its own kind of pressure that has to be dealt with,” said Vernon coach Ian Cameron. “In that situation, you can either feel the pressure, or you can apply the pressure, and Jared chose to apply it. “He jumped better than he has at any competition this year. Even his misses were great jumps. It was fun to watch from beginning to end.” In just his second season on the middle-distance track scene, Vernon’s Joey Kohut ranked 15th in the 14-15 boys 2,000 in 6:20.43. Said coach John Machuga: “Joey has been reaping the benefits of consistently putting in the work which has culminated in a breakthrough race (at the B.C. Athletics Jamboree) that got him to nationals.” Armstrong’s Tyra Gilbert missed the A final in the 16-17 girls 100 hurdles by just 0.02 seconds. Racing against 20 of the best age groupers in the country, Gilbert was fourth in her heat. In the B final, she finished fifth. “Tyra is only in her third year of hurdles, and trains on grass and dirt,” said Cameron. “For her to finish the season ranked third in B.C., and come that close to the A final at her first national championships is absolutely amazing. I couldn’t be prouder of her.” There were more than 1,000 athletes in Langley. Competitors had to attain the qualifying standard for his or her event in a sanctioned meet some time during the season.

Odermatt lifts Humpbacks Morning Star Staff

The Leko Precast Camels moved back into third place by clipping Lake Country FC 2-1 in Capri Insurance Men’s 45+ Soccer League action Monday night at Marshall Field #1. Strikers Zane Klym and Gordie Howard supplied goals for the Camels, who leapfrogged the North Country Appraisals Kickers and shifted five points ahead of the Lakers. Klym, one of the city’s finest bocce players, went top cheese from 20 yards after a feed from outside midfielder Chris Odermatt, named Wayside Press Man of the Match. Striker Al Murphy struck the post and Howard, who enjoyed numerous breakaways and strong scoring chances, just missed padding the Humpbacks’ lead until Howard converted on a scramble in the 43rd minute. Paul Charlton replied for Lake Country (9-5-1) in the 55th minute on a nifty give-and-go with Duane Mueller. Camels’ keeper Dave Dutcher also made several clutch stops. Big-O/Turn Key Ogopogos shut down the Rented Mules 3-0 at Mission 71 Field to give them a five-point lead on Cantinas for the eighth and final playoff berth. After much back-and-forth play in the first half, Roland Riedstra fed a pass to a wide open Henry Czerwonka, who converted low, right corner. Defender Rob Culos is credited with saving the shutout for Yogi Kongsdorf by clearing a certain goal off the Big O goal line late in the first half. The second half saw plenty of chances

including a header from the 7-8 Ogopogos’ Gary Dill on a pass from John Garner that just cleared the top of the bar. Riedstra collected a free ball near the top of the 2-12-1 Mules’ box and hit a missile through the keeper to make it 2-0 in the 57th minute. Some 15 minutes later, Parm Kler, who had just flown in from the World Masters Games in Italy, made a heads-up, long pass over the defence to Garner, who didn’t hesitate to put the game away. Both Leo Nadeau and Volker Otto shared Old Milwaukee Man-of-the-Match honours for their firm play on the Big O back four. Brown Benefits dug in and grounded out a 5-2 win over the Vernon Square Liquor Store Stars at Marshall #3. Browns (15-0) started with a strong wind behind them and capitalized with three goals in the first half. Jim Kruiper hit first at 15 minutes with a crafty run into the Stars’ box where he calmly finished from a tight angle. Brown’s starry striker Tony Gonzales added a trademark breakaway goal in the 25th minute and then the Stars gave up an own goal on a deflected Kruiper corner. The heavens opened at 30 minutes soaking everybody in a 10-minute downpour. Brown’s came out facing a milder wind in the second half and proceeded to dominate possession in the first 15 minutes leading to another Gonzales goal after a great driving run and feed from Lionel Hoffman. Grant Campbell once again proved to be a curse for Stars’ keeper Ted Lurkins after chipping him from 45 yards to make

it four chipped goals for Campbell against Lurkins this season. From there, the seventh-place Stars (7-7-2) began to claw their way back into the game and Art Renaud buried a sweet free kick at 60 minutes. A heated penalty call 10 minutes later gave Stars the opportunity to make it 5-2. Dave Howes stepped up and converted from the spot only to have it called back for encroachment. On the retake, Renaud placed the ball past keeper Steve Heiss into the far right corner to steal the glory from Howes, who had gone to the sidelines to repair a bloody nose after taking an elbow which drew the PK. Ken Horncastle pulled the hat trick as Penticton United stopped the Kickers 5-2 at Parkinson #9. Tony Dias and Peter Ruocco provided singles for Penticton (13-3). Greg Bevandick scored both goals for the shorthanded Kickers (10-4-1). Vernon Kal tire struggled after a week off losing 3-1 to Enco Flooring of Kelowna in Kelowna Men’s League 35+ play Tuesday night in Rutland. Enco (10-6) went ahead midway through the first half before a massive hail and lightning storm struck briefly. After the break, the Tiremen (9-6-1) picked it up with Jesse Knight just missing on a couple of scoring chances. Enco then started pushing and made it 2-0 midway through the second half. Kal Tire recovered with Geoff Straight crossing to the precious head of Kriss Yargeau, who finished nicely. Enco added the clincher with Kal Tire pressing for the equalizer.

Moderately Confused

Bridge by Phillip Alder ENTRIES CAN PROVIDE EXTRA WINNERS Bernard Pivot, a French journalist, interviewer and host of cultural television programs, said, “You get the feeling that many of my guests feel that the French language gives them entry into a more cultivated, more intelligent world, more highly civilized too, with rules.” Several decades ago, French was the diplomatic language, but it has been replaced by English. But it still is a beautiful language. If a bridge player is careful with his entries, he must be an intelligent player. This is a textbook example. How should South play in three no-trump after West leads a fourth-highest heart seven? South doesn’t like to

respond one no-trump, but such is life occasionally at the bridge table. (Some Souths would respond three clubs, a weak jump shift, but I am not a fan of leaping into the stratosphere with no known fit. Here, it is true, it works fine because East is unlikely to find the testing heart lead against three notrump.) North, with a good five-card suit, three aces and one king, is worth the jumpraise to three no-trump. South has only five top tricks: two spades, two hearts (given the opening lead) and one diamond. Five more winners can come from the club suit, but assuming the defender with the club ace will duck the first round of the suit, declarer will need a hand entry -- which is

where? His only winner outside clubs is in hearts. To guarantee that hand entry, South must take the first trick with dummy’s heart ace. Then he drives out the club ace and will eventually come to 10 tricks: two spades, two hearts, one diamond and five clubs.

Many folks will remember, I’m sure, going to mom and dad’s farm in Armstrong for a lunch of her homemade bread, soup, and vegetables from her garden. She loved a houseful of people and enjoyed a good laugh. Mom, you were so loved.

In Memoriam In Memory

Dorothy Dale Fletcher

April 12 - 1939 to August 13 - 2007

We are very grateful to the staff at Hospice House and Dr. Humphreys and the staff at the Vernon Cancer Clinic for their kindness, care and compassion. Jerry was a devoted teacher for 36 years, sharing his love of the outdoors with all whose lives he touched. He celebrated life to the fullest every day and, at his request, there will be no service. Donations may be made to the Vernon Hospice House, 3506- 27th Avenue, Vernon, BC V1T 1S4. Jerry’s legacy can be summed up by this quote of Ralph Emerson: “To laugh often and love much; to win the respect of intelligent persons and the affection of children; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to give of one’s self; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to have played and laughed with enthusiasm and sung with exultation; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived – this is to have succeeded.” He will sadly missed by all who knew him.

Enderby sisters Tracy Ell (left) and Jackie Pearase have a laugh at their new looks after the pair joined Enderby Lion Ted Morrison in a head shave fundraiser for Camp Winfield Sunday. The trio raised $3,200 for the camp, which gives kids with disabilities a week-long summer experience, and the women donated their hair to make wigs for cancer patients. Enderby Lion Angela Killen gives fellow Lion Morrison a closer cut after he shaved his head to benefit Camp Winfield.
