come to Enderby to see where Tomorrowland was shot,” he said. The Enderby Chamber of Commerce is also looking at how to capitalize on the movie. “Our best approach is to use these events as a way to reposition our city as an area that is suitable to host large events and/or productions,” said Corinne Peard, chamber general manager. “We have beautiful landscape and agricultural land that mirrors larger areas yet we have small town appeal that provides unique shopping experiences, small eateries serving up locally produced food and great community spirit.” Parts of Tomorrowland, which will be released Dec. 12, 2014, are also being filmed in Alberta, Vancouver, France and Florida. “The main place, though, is Enderby,” said Summerland.

A big-budget sci-fi flick could bolster the future of Okanagan film production. Walt Disney Pictures’ Tomorrowland, starring George Clooney and Hugh Laurie, begins shooting in Enderby, Grindrod and Armstrong Monday. “This has blown away any movie we’ve ever had before,” said Jon Summerland, the Okanagan’s film commissioner, of Tomorrowland and its $250 million budget. “It’s the biggest thing I’ve ever seen.” Other communities were also considered for filming, which will continue off and on until mid-September, but the North Okanagan was ultimately selected. “We were looking for a particular farm setting and we found it,” said Lee Anne Muldoon, Tomorrowland publicist. Discussions have been underway between

“Mr. Clooney will not be with us all of the time,” said Muldoon. Besides the cast, there will be a crew of about 300 people. “They will hire very few locals but the crew will be in every hotel and every restaurant,” said Summerland of the potential economic impact. “There won’t be one company that won’t be touched some how.” And there could be benefits long-term as the OFC tries to draw other productions to the region. “It will be a major sales tool for us,” said Summerland. “I will be going to every producer about this.” Summerland also anticipates Tomorrowland could influence people making vacation plans. “This is a Lord of the Rings.

Pitch made for local horse racing Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

Just as the races are set to burst through the gates Sunday, support is being called for Canada’s oldest horse racing track. Coldstream is pushing to increase the purse for Kin Race Track, which hosts Vernon Race Days Sunday at noon. Coldstream is hopeful the Regional District of North Maria Besso Okanagan will get on board by requesting a meeting with Community Development Minister Bill Bennett at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in September.

“We have the oldest race track in Canada, it’s been here for 120 years,” said Coun. Maria Besso, who initiated the request. With a bigger purse attracting more racers, Besso says more thoroughbred racing days could take place at the track. “This would benefit the entire region.” Besso also wants the government to acknowledge that there is a racetrack in the Interior. She points to a December 2012 government press release regarding funding increases for tracks. The release states: “British Columbia has two racing tracks: Hastings Park and Fraser Downs.” “There are more than just two horse racing tracks in B.C.,” said Besso. But considering the legal battle at the track, one Coldstream councillor isn’t comfortable

supporting something with an uncertain future. Coun. Pat Cochrane was the lone opponent to Coldstream’s lobbying efforts, saying that the City of Vernon may just end up taking away the track and put a sheet of ice over it. The legal dispute is a result of RDNO and the city, which own the 43rd Avenue property, evicting the Okanagan Equestrian Society, which operates races, in 2010. The society claims equestrian activities were guaranteed when most of the track was turned over to the city in 1964 for free. The society also alleges the regional district ignored an agreement for lease renewals. The regional district has compiled a draft redevelopment plan for the site, including sports fields, two arenas, a BMX track, a gymnastics facility and trails.

The sudden appearance of sinkholes have been disastrous in some communities, but one in Vernon is being described as minor. The City of Vernon was notified by a resident Tu e s d a y that a sinkhole had developed east of the 30th Avenue James Rice roundabout, at the edge of a sidewalk. “They will occasionally occur near a creek crossing,” said James Rice, public works manager, adding that there is a creek in the area. The sinkhole was about three feet wide and seven feet deep. Crews were on scene Wednesday filling and packing the hole. “The road is safe for travel and we will keep a close eye on it,” said Rice. On Monday, a large sinkhole developed under a resort in Florida.

Amputated cat seeking home Morning Star Staff

He’s learning to walk on three legs after undergoing surgery to amputate a badly injured leg, but the biggest problem facing Colonel Meow is convincing a family to let him join their regiment. “Colonel Meow is an absolutely beautiful orange cat who was brought to the shelter as a stray,” said Corinne Ross, manager of the B.C. SPCA’s Vernon branch. “People had noticed him wandering around Armstrong for almost a year and he always appeared to be injured. Finally a Good Samaritan brought him into to us so that he could get the veterinary treatment and care he needed.” The veterinarians tried to save the cat’s leg but the injury was too serious. “He is adjusting well, especially since his favourite activity involves cuddling quietly on the couch with his foster mom,” said Ross. “After struggling to survive outdoors on his own, Colonel Meow is absolutely thrilled to be living inside with a full belly, watching television and snuggling on a lap.” Ross says he is extremely affectionate and is now fully litter trained. “He is fine with dogs, as long as they are gentle but would prefer to be the only cat in a family so that he can be the centre of attention,” she said. “This is such a special cat and we’d love to find him a permanent home as soon as possible.” Ross says with a shelter overflowing with kittens in the summer, it is often harder to adopt adult cats. “We know that the perfect family is out there for Colonel Meow and we hope they will contact us to see about “recruiting” him into their ranks.” For more information, contact the Vernon SPCA branch at 250-549-7297 or at spca.bc.ca/vernon.

It’s still not known why flames roared through two Vernon homes. Investigators have been on scene since two residences were destroyed in the 2200 block of 53rd Avenue at about 5:15 a.m. Tuesday. But a cause has become elusive. “We are close, very close, but we can’t prove it because of the damage from the natural gas,” said Lawrie Skolrood, a deputy fire chief with the Vernon Fire Department. “We have reports

There is no damage estimate yet but the structures were serverely impacted by the blaze. The occupants — a couple in one home and an individual in the other — were not injured. They received help from Emergency Social Services for the first 72 hours.

Campfire compliance sought Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

With crews tied up battling several lightningcaused fires in the region, the public is urged to be compliant with campfire bans in effect. “On Wednesday, we had two fires in the Vernon area pop up, both lightning caused, both spot sized,” said Melissa Welsh, Kamloops Fire Centre information officer. Along with a 0.5 hectare fire north of Falkland Tuesday, the two lightning sparked fires in the region are: east of Shuswap River (40 kilometres southeast of Mabel Lake) and Melissa Welsh two kilometres west of Hidden Lake. With dry forest fuels and continued lightning activity in the forecast, public compliance is needed. The Kamloops Fire Centre is urging the public to abide by the current campfire prohibition or face fines and possible prosecution. The Conservation Officer Service has issued seven violation tickets and 11 warnings related to the prohibitions since Aug. 1, when the campfire

ban went into effect. The consequences for having a campfire or lighting fireworks include: - A violation ticket of $345 for all people in attendance of a campfire. - A violation ticket of $230 for all people participating in lighting fireworks. “One of the things some people may not understand is even if you’re in attendance of the campfire you can be issued a ticket too, not just the person lighting the fire (or fireworks),” said Welsh. Prosecution is another course of action that may result in a fine of up to $100,000 and/or a one-year imprisonment. If campfires or fireworks cause a wildfire, the person(s) responsible may be fined $1 million, face three years in prison and be required to pay for all fire suppression costs related to that fire. Natural resource officers have responded to a number of abandoned campfires while the campfire ban has been in place. Members of the public are reminded that if they see anyone contravening the ban, they should write a description of any vehicle in the immediate area and call the wildfire reporting line, *5555 on your cellphone, immediately. The Kamloops Fire Centre is responding to 153 wildfires in the region, 11 of which were caused by people. During times of intense lightning activity, all personnel and resources are needed to respond to naturally occurring wildfires. Person-caused fires are preventable and tie up vital firefighting resources. To report a wildfire or prohibited campfire, call *5555 on your cellular phone or call toll-free to 1 800 663-5555. The fire danger rating is currently moderate to high, with some extreme spots, throughout the Kamloops Fire Centre.

Mock bills will highlight water consumption richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Enderby residents will be given the dollars and cents about turning off the tap. The city will begin issuing mock bills in January 2014 to customers to indicate their water consumption and what they could have been charged based on provisional rates. “We want to give people a chance to make improvements if they are using too much water,” said Coun. Brad Case. “They may not even know they are using too much water.” The recommendation for mock bills came from staff. “Several municipali-

What’s in a word? A lot if you are trying to ensure people follow the rules. Coun. Catherine Lord has asked City of Vernon staff to investigate whether the bylaw enforcement department should become known as bylaw compliance. “It’s a softer word and it seems that people are then more willing to help rather than be enforced,” she said. Lord was recently in Parksville, on Vancouver Catherine Lord Island, and that community uses the term bylaw compliance for staff who oversee municipal rules. Lord says there has been some concerns about how bylaws are enforced in Vernon and there is the perception that the process can occasionally be heavy-handed. “When you use the word enforce, it is seen as being a semi-police function,” she said, adding that focusing on compliance may change the relationship between city staff and the public. “Sometimes a word can make a difference.”

Motorcycle rider injured by tire Morning Star Staff

A motorist was injured after being struck by a tire Tuesday. A 62-year-old West Kelowna man operating a motorcycle was sent to hospital after he was struck by a wheel that came off a 2006 grey Dodge pickup truck at 5:24 p.m. on Highway 97, near Ponderosa Road in Lake Country. The motorcycle operator sustained serious injuries to his left leg. The 53-year-old Manitoba driver of the truck was not injured.

Paper boy blues

used to have a paper route as a kid. Actually, it was my brother’s but he conned me into taking a couple shifts as it was a daily – Victoria Times Colonist – and he wanted to sleep in once in a while. He couldn’t have been more than 13 at the time, which would have made me 10. What was I thinking? Well, once I had agreed to do it (albeit reluctantly), my parents held me to it and would not let me back out no matter how much I whined and begged. They said it was something to do with instilling responsibility in me, or some such nonsense. Graeme Corbett The only saving grace was my brother didn’t make me go out to collect for subscriptions. Whenever I did it, it always seemed like people were conveniently never home, or had some lame excuse for not paying. But the paper delivery was difficult enough, especially in winter. I remember one time we had a big snowstorm the night before I went out on my route, and trying to take a shortcut, I fell into a snowbank up to my waist and got supremely stuck. My mom’s intuition must have been working double-time that day because it wasn’t long before she came trudging along, donning a winter jacket over her housecoat, to bail me out. Yup, summer was much better, mainly because I could bust out my red and yellow BMX bike and get my route done in half the time it normally took. Of course, I probably weighed 60 pounds soaking wet at that time, which presented its own challenges. With a carrier bag jammed with what seemed like 500 pounds of newsprint, I was more than a little off-kilter whenever I began my route. Once I got about half way, I was cruising, but before that it was pretty much 50/50 whether I would crash at least once.

At rAndoM

The other great thing about morning paper routes in summer is that nobody was awake, unless I slept in, which may or may not have happened a bunch of times. To think of it, my inability to wake up on time is probably what finally got me off the hook. My brother apparently also liked his beauty sleep, and developed a unique way of shirking his paper delivery duties. You can’t deliver something that’s not there, right? Well, on the days he couldn’t be bothered to make the rounds, my genius brother figured he could simply make his bundle “disappear” by stuffing the papers in a hedge and claiming they never arrived off the delivery truck. Surprisingly, the scheme actually worked for a while, likely because he only attempted it a couple times. It wasn’t until the owner of the hedge went to trim it one day that things came unglued. I guess my brother must have put the delivery invoice with his name on it in the hedge as well. In a small town, it didn’t take long for that little oversight to come back to haunt him. But like I said earlier, the best part about my paper route was, once I overcame the yearning for my bed, I had the town to myself. In a way, I can also thank it for my love of growing vegetables. I don’t condone what I’m about to say, but there was this one house along my route with the most fantastic vegetable garden I had ever seen. I couldn’t help but yank a couple of carrots, or pluck a handful of peas or cherry tomatoes, basically whatever was in season, and munch them back as I completed my route. I am happy to say I have been rehabilitated from my wicked ways, and I now gleefully raid my own garden. My plot is coming along quite nicely, but it’s a far cry from that one I visited as a kid. As far as newspapers go, I can say with confidence that I would much rather deal with deadlines in The Morning Star newsroom than the ones faced by our carriers, who do a far superior job than I ever did.

Almost every conversation in the North Okanagan in the last few days seems to include, “Have you seen George yet?” The reference is to super star George Clooney and his starring role in Tomorrowland, which is being filmed partially in Enderby, Grindrod and Armstrong. Obviously there is interest in Clooney, and co-star Hugh Laurie too, because while movies have been shot here before, there has been nothing to this magnitude. “It’s the biggest thing I have ever seen,” said Jon Summerland, Okanagan film commissioner, of the Walt Disney Pictures’ movie, which has a budget of about $250 million. And the economic ramifications could be significant as there is a crew of about 300 people. They are staying in hotels, using our restaurants, buying supplies and visiting our shops. It’s also hoped Disney’s confidence in the region will lead other Hollywood productions to pack their bags for the Okanagan Valley. There could also be a spin-off effect if fans of the movie travel to the locations appearing on the big screen. It’s important to note that landing the Disney project didn’t happen overnight and it’s a result of hard work from Summerland and the Okanagan Film Commission, including chairperson John Trainor of Armstrong. Let’s relish in the exposure the North Okanagan is currently garnering and prospective benefits that could ensue. And if you do happen to see George Clooney, give him a big smile and show him the hospitality the North Okanagan is known for.

Go Green vernon On July 15, I made a presentation to Vernon city council about adopting some parts of the Greenest City Action Plan developed by the City of Vancouver. The City of Vancouver is planning to become the greenest city in the world by the year 2020. The action plan has already increased employment in the city by 18 per cent. They have created 28,000 new green jobs. The mayor of Vancouver researched best practices from leading green cities around the world. The plan consists of 75 quick-start actions that can be used immediately. The city will double the number of green jobs over 2010 levels by 2020. Vancouver's green economy is growing more than twice as fast as traditional sectors. Vancouver has proven that a city can grown and prosper and still become a green capital. The City of Vancouver has proven that we can transform cities and enjoy cleaner air, more green space, healthier people and create new job opportunities at the same time. The City of Vancouver uses 18 pure electric vehicles, plus 37 hybrid electric vehicles and 13 electric bicycles. This action alone has reduced green-

Mussel message hits the river Morning Star Staff

The fight over invasive species is making waves in the Shuswap. Enderby’s Shuswap River Ambassadors are helping promote the Don’t Move A Muscle campaign about zebra and quagga mussels, which attach themselves to boats, piers and water intakes. “The ambassadors not only work to protect the users of the river, but also the river itself,” said Courtney Boucher, Shuswap River Ambassadors manager.

The ambassadors are partnering with the Okanagan and Similkameen Invasive Species Society to educate boat operators about preventing the spread of invasive mussel species. Prevention involves cleaning plants, animals, and mud from vessels, draining any item that can hold water and drying all items before launching into another body of water. The idea for the partnership initially came from Mayor Howie Cyr. “As the river ambassadors already provide information about river safety and respect at many boat launch locations, connecting this initiative to the Don’t Move A Mussel campaign creates a natural synergy,” he said. “We are leveraging a successful, well-established local program to take on this environmental and economic threat proactively.” The Shuswap River

Kailyn Nisse (left) and Carlee De Boer, with Enderby’s Shuswap River Ambassadors program, are providing information about non-native mussels to boaters. Ambassador program was established by the Enderby Chamber of Commerce in 2010. Both mussels are native to eastern Europe and they have spread across North America since the 1980s. These mussels clog water

intake pipes, pumps and boat motors. They also deplete food sources for fish and produce toxins that kill fish and birds and contaminate drinking water. Based on the potential impact to drinking water infrastruc-

ture, fisheries, tourism and real estate values, it’s believed the mussels could cost the Okanagan $43 million annually. For more information about the program, go to www. DontMoveAMussel.ca.

It’s believed Tourism Vernon may generate some revenue from referrals related to Booking.com.

With the infrastructure deficit growing, Lumby officials are preparing for the future. Council has endorsed an asset management strategy presented by staff. “It’s a goal that we are moving towards,” said Mayor Kevin Acton. “We need to put reserves away for when we need it. We’re looking at pipelines, roads, bridges and sidewalks. It’s pretty massive.” An asset management plan indicates how infrastructure will be managed over a period of time. “The plan describes the characteristics and condition of infrastructure assets, the levels of service expected from them, planned actions to ensure the assets are providing the expected level of service and financing strategies to implement the planned actions,” said Ken Klassen, former finance director, in a memo. Presently, the village has identified its assets and their historical value. “From that information, we have been able to

determine our annual amortization (depreciation) and have through the reserve policy established a funding mechanism for its eventual replacement,” said Klassen. Because of Lumby’s limited tax base, financial assistance is being sought from federal and provincial levels of governments to ensure upgrades proceed. The village is also focusing on bolstering the economy so there is additional tax revenue. “That’s why we are working hard to improve the industrial park and bring in seniors residential housing,” said Acton.

Although the concept of immigrating to Canada via these programs is quite straightforward, the immigration process required to become a permanent resident can be quite complicated. This complexity and other circumstances have contributed to the low rate of temporary foreign workers who have transitioned to permanent residency.

Dragon boats splash into action at Kal Morning Star Staff

When the Millenium Dragon Boats hit the waters of Kalamalka Lake in Coldstream Saturday, Prospera Credit Union will once again have plenty to cheer about as Vernon staff — better known as the Prospera Piranhas — return to test their paddling skills against some of the best teams in B.C. This is the second year that Prospera is the title

sponsor for the Prospera Vernon Dragon Boat Festival and according to branch manager Darrell Oshiro, the team is in good form. “We’ve got a lot of returning paddlers as well as a few newbies on the Piranhas team,” said Oshiro. “Once again, we are practicing hard and working closely with the Vernon Paddling Centre to get as much training in as possible before race day. As always, all of our Vernon staff are really excited and involved and it’s been a great team-building activity.” The festival, which will feature 22 boats and 500 paddlers this year, is also a fundraiser and the Piranhas have come up with some innovative ideas to reach their goal of $2,000 including a penny drive to encourage people to put their out of circulation pennies towards a good cause, a bottle drive, 50/50 staff draws and hot dog sales. They have also received generous donations from members visiting the branch to support the team’s efforts. All of the funds raised by the dragon boat teams will go to support Vernon Jubilee Hospital for the purchase of critical breast cancer diagnostic equipment. Last year, the festival raised $8,300 and this year the goal is to reach $10,000.

Insufficient funds have put a hold on extending the Kidston Road pathway. The Coldstream project will be reconsidered as part of the 2013 budget deliberations after tenders received were higher than budgeted. The distrct will continue with the land acquisitions required for this project. The costing estimates will be revised in anticipation of retendering the project in 2014 once sufficient budget funds have been established.

Coldstream builds on centre Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

The creation of a town centre is evolving in Coldstream. Despite a few neighbourhood concerns, the district has adopted a mixed use commercial zone on eight of its properties including the municipal office, fire department, rental property, Cenotaph Park, public works yard as well as the Women’s Institute. “The intent of this zone itself is to allow for a variety of residential and commercial uses,” said Mike Reiley, director of development services. The new zone also gives the Women’s Institute better conformity to some of its current and past uses, such as exercise classes and a farmer’s market. With the new zoning in place, any new construction in the town centre area will have to comply. Existing buildings can continue with their current use. Although the town centre could attract new businesses and services to the area, some residents are opposed to seeing their neighbourhood dynamic changed. “I, for one, can’t see the use for a town centre. How many years has this been going on? I don’t see the need for one,” said Whetzell Drive resident Angie Kitcher in a letter to council. “We already have a church, municipal buildings, a clock tower, a school and a store. That is all that is needed for a town centre.” There are also increased traffic and parking

concerns for the stretch of Kalamalka Road, which is already busy during school days when kids are being dropped off and picked up. Coun. Gyula Kiss points out that the town centre plan is not a new idea to Coldstream. “It goes back 20 years almost.” Coun. Pat Cochrane was the lone opponent to the zoning changes approved by council Monday.

Teams gear up for Gibson Cup run Morning Star Staff

The road to the North Okanagan Soccer League’s Gibson Cup is set. Seventh-place Monashee Surveying FC tangle with the cellar-dwelling Salmon Arm Outlaws, while eighth-place Riot FC meet ninth-place Peters Tirecraft/Concept Physio Saturday night to determine the final eight playoff berths. The bottom-four games go at Marshall Field with the remaining No. 8 seed battling league champion Courvas in Salmon Arm and the No. 7 team going up against runner-up North Enderby Timber Sunday at Marshall (6 p.m.). The fourth-place Hi-Pro Sportswear Camels FC tangle with fifth-spot Turn-Key Controls in the other Sunday nighter at Marshall. Eagle Homes Nation of Domination play the sixthplace Revelstoke Stallions Sunday night in the Shuswap. The Camels stoked their offence for the playoff run by mauling Monashee Surveying FC 9-0 Wednesday night at Marshall Field #5. Monashee started the game by pinning the Camels back and had a few opportunities to take the lead due to some poor defensive passing. But their chances were spurned and the Camels (10-6-2) took advantage after about 20 minutes with a close-range conversion by Bryn Knauff. Monashee worked hard to respond but the Camels, with quick passing, increased the lead as Knauf bagged another one. The Camels started to dominate possession with fast movement of both the ball and players, with Nathan Whitling chipping Monashee keeper James Inglis from a quick breakaway. In the second half, the Humpbacks kept up the pace with more goals from Albert Goldnik, Mo Singogo, Nathan Whitling (2), Mike Barrajon and Fabrice Fanfani. The goal of the season came from a string of quick passes from the back line, involving Kiran O’Neill, Fanfani, Ben Osborn, Trevor Rachwalski, Whitling and finally Singogo, who had only had the keeper to beat. The Camels named Whitling and Singogo joint Burger King

Men of the Match. In other games Wednesday, NET grounded the Riot 5-2, Courvas toppled Tirecraft 3-1, Turn-Key ripped the Outlaws 7-2 and Eagle Homes shaded Revelstoke 3-2. Brent Paulsen and Alex Farina each supplied a deuce for NET (13-4-1), while Corey Wallis contributed a single. Evan Frederick and Danny Stein each allowed a goal while sharing net duties. Farina provided the Timber goal of the night, taking a through ball behind his back, performing a couple of tango moves, touching the ball outside and shooting off the far-side post. Wallis also got props when he took a short corner pass, made two touches and hammered a corker home from the top of the 18. The Gibson Cup semifinals go Wednesday night followed by the final Sunday, Aug. 25 at Marshall #4 (6 p.m.). Meanwhile, the Vernon Co-Ed tourney consisted of 19 teams last weekend with the Rec Division A final seeing Kelowna Kaos pocket $500 by beating Retro Slurpees, in their tie-dyed late 1960s-style jerseys, of Delta, 2-1. The Aldergrove Highliters crushed Abbotsford Balls and Dolls 5-0 for third in the 14-team group. The five-team Competitive Division consisted of four teams from Vernon and a late entry from Penticton, the Young Gunners. The teams played a four-game round-robin that went down to the last games of the day on Sunday. Taboo played Young Gunners and Here for the Beer played The Bad News Beers. Depending on the results, either Young Gunners, Taboo or Bad News Beers could have taken first. The Young Gunners beat Taboo 3-2 to take home $500. Taboo did not have the luck of the draw getting three games Saturday. Bad News Beers beat Here For The Beer 2-0 to earn $300 for second, while Taboo spent their $200 for third in true Taboo style – in the beverage gardens. The Thompson Okanagan FC U15 boys team provided the concession as well as security and 50/50 draws as part of a team fundraiser.

Byram pools medals at Canada Games Morning Star Staff

Photo subMitted

Vernon’s Joe Byram shows off his Canada Games medal haul.

Joe Byram has already showed he can compete with the best in the west, and now he has taken his act national. A Vernon Kokanee Swim Club grad who collected nine gold medals at the Western Canada Games two years ago, Byram pocketed five medals at the Canada Summer Games in Sherbrooke Que. Included in his stellar performance was a Games record in the 200-metre backstroke, which he completed in two minutes, 2.02 seconds. Byram, who is entering his third year with the

University of Alberta Golden Bears in Edmonton, also clocked gold in the 4x50 medley relay, and silver in the 50 back (26.87), 100 back (56.10) and 4x100m medley relay. “It was a great experience,” said Byram, who went straight to the Games after competing at senior summer nationals, also in Quebec. “That was the first time I’ve been away from the home pool for an extended period of time. That’s what my life is going to be like from now on.” Byram, 19, hopes to parlay his Games success into national team berths for both the

Melon Madness! Buy one Cantaloupe, get one free!

Commonwealth Games (July 23-Aug. 3) in Glasgow, and the Pan Pacific Championships (Aug. 21-25), in Gold Coast, Australia. However, his main goal is the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, but only the top Canadian for each distance is selected. One thing in Byram’s favour is that backstroke incumbents – Tobias Oriwol and Charles Francis – appear to be winding down their careers. “It’s pretty open for all of us down below,” said Byram, who reached the A final in the 50, 100 and 200 backstroke at spring nationals. “In my events, there’s lots of young guys.”

Birthday girl Brittany Davison earned the Little Tex Lady of the match as the Outlaws lassoed the AF Blazers 5-1 in North Okanagan Women’s Soccer Association Division 1 play Tuesday night. Davison hustled all game at Marshall Field #4 and supplied two gorgeous goals as the Outlaws improved to 10-4-5 with one week left in the season. Davison’s first goal came off a header after a beautiful cross from Maria Thorlakson. Jasmine Whitling then assisted Christine Fraser’s goal with Fraser pushing the ball forward to the 18 and pulling off a sweet give-and-go for the tap in. Toren Huntley counted the third Little Tex tally, while Stacey Cover drilled a long ball at the keeper which was then headed in by (Lean) Lena Dean. Defenders Steff Conti, Kristy Anderson and Cover hustled all 90 minutes, while the whole team delivered some smart passes to dominate the play. Anita Rae and Candace Lipiski shared goal keeping duties and were stellar in the heat. Krista Ference had the Blazer goal with Hailey Woon earning the assist. The Blazers (6-11-2) received all-star performances on defence from Amber Maltman, Amanda Swales, Shelby Price and Jenny Hatten. First-place Dr. Lee Dental pulled out a 3-2 win over the North Enderby Timber Celtics at Marshall #5.

The Floss crew (15-3-1) opened the offence when Jenessa Moore fed Stephanie Wilson, who relayed a through ball to Toni Bensmiller for the nice finish. The second goal came from a marvellous cross from Irene Arrotta to Moore, who carried the ball to just inside the 18 and struck a bullet to the top corner. The Celtics (11-6-2) battled big time to earn a penalty late in the first half, converted by veteran Sarah Ehman. Bensmiller snuck a ball away from the Celtics’ keeper and slot home the 3-1 tally. Speedster Jen Siegmueller got NET to within a goal with a superb cross to Meghan Smith, who buried a world-class volley. Moore, Ally Dodds, Jill Rintoul and Arrotta all enjoyed bold nights on the Dr. Lee half line. In Masters play, the Chick Kickers brushed back shortstaffed TED United 4-1 at Marshall #2. Center midfielder Colline Johnson jumpstarted the Kickers’ attack after springing free with a magical through ball from Jen Garnett. The TED keeper kept her crew in the game long enough for them to equalize just before the half, but that was all they saw of the net. With firm goalkeeping from Robyn Sherwood and dyanmic defence from Bonnie Mann, Wendy Magnus, Elisha Kittson and Marilyn Vanderdeen, the talented TED forwards had few chances.

The second half saw precise passing and great communication from the Chicks as they took full control. With wingers Tania Sladen and Kelly Challen tiring out the TED defence, the field opened up and goals started flowing. Crystal Bergman, from Jenny Sorochuk, Garnett, from Melissa Jacobs, and Jacobs, on a great feed by hard-working Tina Garrison, supplied goals for the 12-3-4 Kickers. United dipped to 15-3-2. Rosters drew 2-2 with host Shuswap Kaos Tuesday night. First-half keeper Peggy Warnes was fabulous in earning a clean sheet for Rosters (3-10-6), who went in front when Daralee Morris passed to Becky McLennan, who beat the outside defender and teed up a shot from the 18 that sailed over the keeper’s head. Karen Benn took over net duties in the second half and delivered some long drop kicks up the side that sent forwards on some nice runs without any luck. Determined play in the middle landed McLennan another ball just inside the box that she once again launched over the keeper’s head. The Kaos girls turned up the pressure for about 10 minutes and managed to level the score, improving to 5-12-2. Awesome efforts up front were turned in by Warnes, Marianne Defoor and Deanna Baker, who were stonewalled by the Kaos keeper.

Marty Stein (middle), a retired Fulton Secondary teacher, honours noah varley (from left), Kira lee, Marissa Berg and Wardan vanderveen with $500 George Stein Memorial Scholarships.

Stein legacy continues Kevin Mitchell Sports Editor

They play and think soccer 24-7 while applying serious time to their studies. For this, four graduates of the North Okanagan Youth Soccer Association have earned $500 George Stein Memorial Scholarships. Marty Stein made the cheque presentations in honour of his father, outside the VantageOne Indoor Facility. “We always look for young people who love and respect the game,” said Stein, a retired player who referees adult leagues. “We are honoured to help them with their post-secondary education anyway we can.” Marissa Berg, who turned 18 on Aug. 14, started the game locally at age six. A centre midfielder/ fullback, she played Rep until last year and plans to play in the Vernon women’s league next season. “I’m going to Okanagan College this fall to study sciences and hopefully get a medical degree,” said Berg, who has reffed youth soccer the past few years. A setter with the volleyball Fulton Maroons, Berg works full-time at Pet Planet. Noah Varley came up through the Li’l Kickers program and progressed to Rep and Y League in

the last few years. A defender who turns 18 in October, Varley played in the men’s league for the Davidson Dynamite last season. “I’m going to UVic for engineering the next five years,” said Varley, a Seaton grad. Kira Lee, a Seaton grad who celebrates her 18th birthday Aug. 26, is a defender who played Rep and Y League before making the PCSL Premier Okanagan Whitecaps. “I’m teaching Asians English this summer and then I’m going to the University of Calgary for business and languages,” said Lee, who will play soccer for the Dinosaurs on a scholarship. Wardan Vanderveen moved to Vernon four years ago from Saskatoon and played defence in the U18 House league this season while also playing football for the Kalamalka Lakers. Vanderveen, who will be 18 in October, is an official in the men’s league, serving as a referee and linesman. “I’m going to UBCO in Kelowna for arts and creative writing,” said Vanderveen. George Stein, who died in 1996, helped found youth soccer in Vernon some 50 years ago. He and the late Fred Mann were key cogs in the construction of the MacDonald Park clubhouse.

Telus on course for junior golfers Morning Star Staff

The Vernon Vipers Tee Off for KidSport charity golf tournament at The Rise has dialed up some sponsorship from Telus. The communications corporation will once again sponsor four junior golfers to play in the Sunday, Aug. 25 Texas scramble (1 p.m. shotgun start) as guests of the Vipers. Tourney organizers are looking for four new junior golfers, with entries to be drawn from a list next week. The four selected will also be guests of the Vipers for their B.C. Hockey League exhibition game versus the Salmon Arm SilverBacks on Saturday, Aug. 24 (7 p.m.). There are also regular entries available for the scramble, which will split net proceeds between Greater Vernon KidSport and the local Royal Bank Cup committee. The $160 entry fee includes dinner, prizes, tee gift, silent auction, autograph session and a ticket to the Vipers-Backs exhibition. Confirmed for the tourney are Aaron Volpatti of the Washington Capitals and Jerred Smithson, a free agent formerly with the Edmonton Oilers. Organizers are also in need of several hole sponsors. To register, or for sponsorship information, contact The Rise head pro Lee Ranger by phoning 250-545-7425, or e-mailing lee.ranger@therise.ca. Or call the Viper office at 250-542-6022.

Meanwhile, the Vipers will be lining up alongside Greater Vernon Minor Hockey. The two organizations have agreed to collaborate on a number of initiatives that will benefit players and coaches in the coming season. Included in the agreement are: Player mentorship program – Viper players will be attending two practices for each GVMHA team throughout the season. Coach mentorship program – Viper coaches will assist GVMHA coaches, and will put together a seminar during the season. Fundraising opportunities – The Vipers have provided a couple of fundraising opportunities for minor hockey that include a ticketing program and 50/50. Any GVMHA player for the coming season will be eligible for a general admission season pass for $50. Vernon head coach/GM Jason Williamson said this partnership is great for both groups. “I’m very pleased that we were able to put this together this season with Greater Vernon Minor Hockey,” said Williamson. “The board has been fantastic to deal with and this is a relationship that we believe will continue to grow for years to come.” As an added bonus, Vernon’s Rep teams will be wearing Viper replica jerseys for all games this season.

Vernon native Vasek Pospisil was going to put away his tennis bag for a few days after suffering a second-round loss Wednesday at the $3.7 million Western & Southern Open in Cincinnati. Pospisil failed to convert on four match points as he was upset 7-5, 1-6, 7-6 (6) by Belgian qualifier David Goffin, who’s ranked 80th. “Time for some rest and recovery... Much needed,” wrote Pospisil on his Facebook page. Pospisil, 23, had risen to 40th in the ATP Tour rankings after reaching last week’s Rogers Cup semifinals against Milos Raonic in Montreal. Pospisil’s prediction that he would have a tough time with Goffin proved to be correct, despite 13 aces and the Belgian’s nine double faults. He fell on a late break in the opening set but roared back to sweep the

second. The third set was tight, with Pospisil grabbing a 6-5 lead on a break and moving into position to serve out victory. Goffin, however, saved a match point in the next game and then forced Pospisil to salvage a break point before

finally dropping to 6-6. In the tiebreaker, Pospisil had three more match points and failed to convert on all of them. Goffin grabbed his first match point. Next up for Pospisil is the $25.5 million U.S. Open, Aug. 26-Sept. 9 in New York.

Hydro offers reservoir safety tips To beat the summer heat, hundreds of thousands of people are expected to visit the 16 recreation areas operated by BC Hydro throughout the province, including the recreation areas along the Shuswap River near Lumby. BC Hydro’s recreation areas are located on reservoirs and rivers that are a part of hydroelectric generation facilities. BC Hydro is reminding the public to avoid designated danger zones around reservoirs and obey posted signs. The hydroelectric system on the Shuswap consists of two dams:

the Wilsey dam at Shuswap Falls and the Sugar Lake dam. A powerhouse, with two generating units, is located 29 kilometres downstream from the Sugar Lake reservoir. BC Hydro advises British Columbians using rivers, lakes and reservoirs near its generating facilities to exercise caution as water levels and flows may change quickly. BC Hydro reminds the public to also follow these safety precautions when around water: n Supervise children on or near water closely at all times. Children and those who can’t swim should

Discussions with B.C.’s 10,000 liquor licence holders have identified a few problems that should be fixed. Going into a consultation phase that runs until October, the government is looking for answers to a few obvious questions, such as why it takes a pub or bar up to a year to get a licence. Another question: why can a family with under-aged children go into a licensed restaurant for lunch, but can’t go to a pub and place the exact same food and drink order? This should be allowed, perhaps until the traditional 5 p.m. “happy hour” when the pub reverts to adults-only. A couple of sugges-

tions have come out of the healthy growth of B.C. wine, craft beer and distillery operations. Look for new licence opportunities for farmers’ markets to sell local beverages along with the produce and preserves. Letters inviting suggestions from existing licence holders have gone out, and Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap will be meeting this fall with industry groups, local governments, police, health and social policy organizations and First Nations in the fall. A website will be put up in September so members of the public can have their say. Here’s my suggestion to start things off. Recent incidents involving so-called “party buses” shone a light on this growing industry, The sudden death of a 16-year-old on a party bus outing in Surrey in February

turned out not to be alcohol-related, but to no one’s surprise, open liquor was found aboard the bus. Open liquor isn’t allowed in any vehicle, but perhaps a new kind of special event licence could be created for party buses. Tom Fletcher They have been viewed mainly as part of the solution to impaired driving, and the situation isn’t much different from a supervised event on a boat. Here’s another suggestion. Gourmet cooking classes are becoming popular, with customers preparing and then enjoying their meals. Why not licence these establishments, at least so people can bring their own wine for dinner? Both the B.C. Liberals and NDP have advocated for easing the archaic rules on inter-provincial trade in wine. B.C. lifted its restrictions on mailorder wine and has

REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS LANGUAGE NEST CONSULTANT The Okanagan Indian Band Education Department is soliciting expressions of interest from Consultants for the purpose of program development of the Okanagan Indian Band’s Language Nest language and cultural projects. For 2013-14, the Language Nest project requires a qualified contractor to: -

Develop and deliver a cultural activities nest program in close consultation with fluent Elders Develop and produce “big books” for children with Fluent Elders Support the Fluent Elders Advisory Group

urged other provinces to follow suit. There are a couple of reasons why this Prohibition-era structure persists. Liquor sales are a cash cow for provincial governments, and every case of wine brought in from elsewhere is lost profit for the provincial wholesale monopoly. Then there is the local industry lobby that would rather not add to its competition.

Premier Christy Clark pressed this point at the recent premiers’ meeting in Ontario wine country, bringing in the maximum amount of B.C. wine allowed under Ontario rules and urging free trade in Canadian wine. The Toronto media drank it up, aghast that they were barred from ordering the latest Naramata Bench tipples directly. No

Black seeks Canadian financing for refinery richard rolke Morning Star Staff

B.C. businessman David Black has been forced to seek Canadian lenders to build his proposed oil

refinery near Kitimat at the insistence of the Chinese bank that would act as the main financier. The Industrial and Commercial Bank of

China declined to fully finance the $25-billion project, Black said, sending him to find a quarter of the required money within Canada. “It really came down

to the fact that they wanted some skin in the game out of Canada and they would put 75 per cent of the money up for the refinery,” he said.

in financing or partnering on the refinery but Black said that’s no surprise. Oil extraction is traditionally more profitable than refining, he said, and the biggest energy firms may not want a new refinery competing against ones they already own. “I understand all that and decided early on I just had to find a way around that and I think I’ve found it.” The $25-billion cost includes roughly $16 billion for the refinery – more than initially estimated due to a new refining process that promises to emit half as much greenhouse gas – with the rest covering a natural gas pipeline, a fleet of tankers and the cost of the oil pipeline, if necessary. Besides securing financing, Black said he must secure sites for the refinery and the marine terminal with

“Financially it’s going to work out.” the Kitselas and Haisla first nations, determine if inland first nations along the proposed pipeline corridor can come on board and to button down formal supply agreements with Canadian oil companies. He said an engineering firm from Calgary has endorsed the alternative refining process. Black reiterated his position that he could build the refinery even if the Enbridge’s Northern Gateway pipeline project is rejected and instead bring oil via train, but he emphasized pipelines are safer. “I really hope it doesn’t come to that – I really hope we can do the pipeline.” A pipeline would bring money and benefits for first nations and local communities that wouldn’t come with rail shipments, he added.

Black has billed the project, announced a year ago, as a way to create thousands of jobs in B.C. refining Alberta crude oil while ensuring diluted bitumen isn’t shipped in tankers, eliminating one of the biggest objections to construction of the proposed Northern Gateway pipeline that could supply the crude. Black is advancing the project through his firm Kitimat Clean, but is also majority owner of the Black Press group of newspapers, which include The Morning Star. He said he believes he has found lenders in Canada but gave no details, except to say he does not intend to take on equity investors. “It’s too early to say where or how, but I think it’s there,” he said. “Financially, it’s going to work out.” He aims to file a project description with the provincial government in September to initiate the environmental review process.

B.C. Green Party leader Jane Sterk is quitting politics. Sterk led the party to the breakthrough election of its first B.C. MLA – high profile climate scientist Dr. Andrew Weaver – in the Victoria constituency of Oak Bay-Gordon Head. But Weaver’s win came thanks to a conJane Sterk centrated campaign – Greens running elsewhere in B.C. didn’t come close to victory in the May provincial election. The party got 146,000 votes or 8.1 per cent of the popular vote. Sterk announced her decision Tuesday on Twitter, saying she will resign Aug. 24 at the B.C. Green Party annual general meeting. “Had a good run, at best b4

date, want new adventures,” Sterk tweeted. It’s not yet clear if Weaver will seek the party’s leadership, but Sterk told CKNW she hopes he puts his name forward in the coming leadership race. Sterk, 66, was an Esquimalt councillor before becoming B.C. Green Party leader in 2007, replacing Adriane Carr. She fell short of winning a Green seat in the 2005, 2009 and 2013 provincial elections and the federal election of 2004. Sterk ran this spring against Carole James in the former NDP leader’s Victoria-Beacon Hill riding. B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix paid tribute to Sterk’s contribution and wished her well. “Our politics is healthier when more British Columbians see their voice reflected in our public debate,” Dix said. “Jane’s contribution attracted many who might otherwise have forsaken party politics.”

Downtown performers are a growing hit Morning Star Staff

Downtown Vernon’s streets have an added liveliness to them this summer. Curbside LIVE, a street performers’ program, has been taking place Tuesday at lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and Friday evenings from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. The program, which has been a success running throughout July, will continue until the end of August. “The busking program was introduced to bring entertainment to the streets of downtown Vernon and support the businesses staying open late on Fridays,” said Julie Melanson with the Downtown Vernon Association. She encourages the public to grab an ice cream as they stroll through the streets and enjoy the performances, or take in the music as they dine out downtown. “We have many talented musicians

• Kelowna • Penticton • Salmon Arm • Valleyview • Rutland • West Kelowna • Vernon • North Kamloops • Sahali

signed up for this program, and more,” said Melanson. “Busking can include all types of entertainment, and we’re happy to have artists and even a group of young jugglers in our line-up. "This year we introduced the Curbside LIVE street performers to Tuesdays at lunch as well.” The DVA has organized entertainment four days of the week. Wednesdays at lunch is Jammin’ in Justice for people to enjoy their lunch outside to music, in Justice Park from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. There is also the ever popular Civic Sounds Thursday night. Melanson adds that Civic Sounds has been so popular this summer the DVA added an extra evening to the line-up. On Aug. 29 Mace will be playing following Cod Gone Wild on Aug. 22. For more information, visit the DVA Web site at www.downtownvernon.com.

Wearing a troubadour’s hat

Brett Wildeman: Mother Earth

W

est Coast folk musician Brett Wildeman, whose second recording Mother Earth is a document of his wanderlust, carries on the decades-old B.C. troubadour tradition. Wildeman’s candid acoustic-based sound has been Dean Gordon-Smith dubbed “raw folk” perhaps because the songs are pared down to essentials. As in classic folk style, the acoustic

Street SoundS

guitar lays down the path and so it is with Wildeman’s songs. Vocally, Wildeman’s mellow delivery recalls Donovan after a rough night out on the town and thus feels both familiar and charming. His laid back feel is ideal for story songs or anything narrative-based. Because Wildeman doesn’t push it, his lyrics are sometimes under-represented and deceptive. The Story has images that recall a dark murder ballad. Other tracks are atmospheric groovefolk with gentler themes. Dearest Friend and Our Fathers lean on sentiment via clever word play. Then it’s back to the darker travelogue. Life’s Storm contains poetic hooks set to a moody thrum and the Cohen-toned Brooks, Alberta is a

sardonic take on the historical passage of that town...interesting and tongue-incheek. The cheerfully blunt character of Wildeman’s material is cleverly laid out in Foreign Affairs. His creative imagery veils pointed political commentary in an unadorned critique. With a voice that’s friendly and warm, Wildeman captures disparate themes with candour and eases a listener into attention. Brett Wildeman leaves his home on the Sunshine Coast to tour British Columbia. He plays tonight at The Talkin’ Donkey at 8 p.m. The Talkin’ Donkey is at #1, 540024th St., Vernon. For more details, call 250-545-2286.

Great casting for crime-comedy 2 Guns susAn steen

M

Special to The Morning Star

ark Wahlberg (“Stig” Stigman) and Denzel Washington (Bobby Trench) star in this film which has the usual violence and coarse language. Added to that are the following facts: A) There are no good guys B) No one is who they seem to be and C)Everyone is out to get everyone else. Now that we understand all that, we can kind of understand the show. Fascinating also is the ease with which Wahlberg and Washington act together. They’re both solid actors and play off each other well. Originally, Vince Vaughn was cast as Bobby and Owen Wilson was to be Stig. I can’t see that working at all. This show has really funny moments, it also has moments of surprise, moments of grief, sorrow and 108 minutes of plot twists. 2 Guns has not been hyped to the degree that most films are these days and that’s kind of surprising in itself, considering the cast includes Paula Patton as

A really good cast who probably had a lot of fun making this film. 2 Guns may not prove to be a huge box office success in the long run, but for the past weekend results, it brought in $27,361 million, dropping The Wolverine to second place, and The Smurfs 2 in third place.

It’s touted as a crime-comedy and it’s very watchable. While not at all thought-provoking, it does beg the question: “Who can you really trust?” One of the best lines: “Never rob a bank across the street from a diner that has the best doughnuts in three counties.” I give 2 Guns three reels — go see it, and ask yourself: “Who do I trust?” The film is currently showing at The Galaxy Cinemas in Vernon. — Susan Steen is a freelance movie reviewer whose column normally appears in the Kelowna Capital News.

Argentine-born Pancho Rio is a guitarist and singer who excels in the wonderful folk rhythms of French gypsies, Spanish flamenco and sizzling rumba. He and his Canadian partner — in life as well as in music — Sal Samaya met in Peru in 1984, and the talented duo is now based in Vancouver and touring as the Rio Samaya Band. Sal backs Pancho with smoky vocals, accordion, cha-chas, bombo and guitar. They have played in China, India, Central America, Turkey, France, Cambodia, Australia and across Canada — on TV, at arts and folk festivals, in schools, parks and community centres. Rio Samaya will make their Enderby debut at the River Rocks Bistro (near the bridge) on Tuesday. The show begins at 8 p.m., with a cover charge of

Hoshi needs community’s help Garage sale benefits beloved Labrador suffering from osteoarthritis

Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

At just four-years-old, Hoshi, a black lab, is severely crippled with osteoarthritis – a painful condition in both shoulders, spine, pelvis and hips. To help the young dog gain some freedom and mobility, his owner is hosting a fundraising garage sale this weekend to buy Hoshi a wheelchair. “My beloved baby Hoshi is desperately in need of a wheelchair,” said Jungyon Son of her fur baby. “He was born with this condition and is getting worse and worse each year, every step causing him searing pain. He is the love and light of my world.” The fundraiser will take place Saturday and Sunday at 3102-15th Ave. (near the hospital), starting at 8 a.m. each day. Son is also seeking donations of items for the garage sale and for those who would like to help but can’t make it out to the sale, financial contributions are also welcomed. Anyone with donations can call 250-307-7442. In order to purchase the chair, Hoshi’s mom needs to raise $1,630. “Thank you everyone for helping my precious baby, Hoshi, to get his wheelchair.” The cause has touched Vernon resident Kayla MacGillivray, who stepped up to lend a hand after hearing about Hoshi. “I saw a flyer in a book store,” said MacGillivray, of how she first learned about the urgent need and is now helping Son with the garage sale. “After the garage sale this weekend we are planning to go out and ask for support from local businesses and hopefully in doing so we can raise enough for Hoshi,” said MacGillivray.

Owls come home to the North Okanagan Morning Star Staff

Several rehabilitated Great Horned Owls will find themselves released back into the North Okanagan. In collaboration with the South Okanagan Rehabilitation Centre for Owls (SORCO) and the Allan Brooks Nature Centre (ABNC), the young owls will be released at Bishop Wild Bird Sanctuary Aug. 27 at 6 p.m. Interested members of the public are invited to watch, respectfully, the owl release which will take place at 12408 Coldstream Creek Rd., by donation to SORCO. The release will be followed by a presentation at ABNC on Birdfinding in B.C. The Great Horned owlets were found orphaned in their Vernon nest in spring 2013. Concerns of local residents alerted SORCO staff who arranged for volunteer transport of the owlets to the Oliver clinic.

New arrivals

Great Horned Owls will be released back into the wild at Bishop Wild Bird Sanctuary Aug. 27. They arrived at the centre when they were too young to eat. SORCO staff cared for the birds and facilitated the successful development of these healthy young adult owls, now ready to be released. Bishop Wild Bird Sanctuary offers open forest habitat for prey and secure cover for the owls as well as good connectivity to Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park. Typically,

the very adaptable Great Horned Owls disperse as juveniles in search of company and a territory to take up permanent residence. “It’s remarkable how resilient nature is,” says Aaron Deans, ABNC executive director. “And amazing how nature adapts beyond its fragility in order to survive. Organizations like SORCO exist to give some species a hand.” The presentation to follow at the centre by Russell Cannings is appropriate for all levels of birding experience. Cannings recently co-authored Birdfinding in British Columbia with his father, Dick Cannings. The talk is a part of the Summer Sunset Speakers Series presented at ABNC Tuesdays, by donation, until Oct. 1. Doors open at 7 p.m. and presentations begin at 7:30 p.m. ABNC is at 250 Allan Brooks Way in Vernon. For more information, call 250-260-4227.

Dumpster dive for the grub

ear Annie: I’ve found a new way to get free food: dumpster diving. Several times a week, a group of us go through the supermarket dumpster at night to see what they’ve thrown away. Sometimes there’s nothing, but other times, there’s great stuff. One night, I found nine ears of corn. Another time, it was 23 packs of chicken. I’ve found honeydew melons, cherries, grapes, peppers, tomatoes, Kathy Mitchell & MarcySugar potatoes and all sorts of other goodies. I thoroughly boil the meat and poultry before eating it, and I wash the fruit and pour boiling water over it. It loses some color, but still tastes sweet. I cook all vegetables. The problem is, there’s a stigma to this. People give us dirty looks. We’re very careful not to make a mess. We leave everything spotless. But the store manager hates us. And if my mother knew about this, she’d throw a fit. I can’t figure out why this is so despised. Why should I have to pay all that money for food when I can get it for nothing? — New York Dear New York: Most people aren’t willing to go through someone else’s

annie's mailbox

garbage in order to find edible food that isn’t contaminated, rotten, partially eaten or long past the expiration date. And while we know some folks do this for economic reasons or as a protest against the “system,” most people find it distasteful and demeaning. We think the owners of groceries and restaurants are entitled to earn a living, too, and we would hope that still-edible food is donated to food pantries whenever possible. Dear Annie: I don’t know how to get rid of my pest of a neighbor. I moved to this community three years ago, after my divorce. I befriended “Joyce,” a woman in her 70s who lives two doors down. Joyce won’t leave me alone. When I entertain my fiancé or friends, she is sure to walk over uninvited and interrupt us. On several occasions, I’ve given her my business card and asked her to call first to make sure I’m not busy. It hasn’t worked. She also drinks my wine, and even though she has an extensive wine collection, she never offers to replace the bottle she consumed at my place. At times, I’ve had to shut my curtains and hide in my bedroom until she is gone. Help. — Prisoner in My Own Home in Southern California Dear Prisoner: Joyce is lonely and either clueless or deliberately obtuse. It is a kindness to include her when you can, but you also are entitled to entertain

without her. So you will need to be a bit more assertive and willing to upset her. The next time Joyce comes over unannounced and unwanted, stop her at the door and say, “Joyce, I have company. You will have to come back another time.” If she gets teary, outraged, pushy or anything else, simply repeat that she will have to come back another time. Don’t let her walk beyond the threshold. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Need To Know in Saskatoon,” the woman who disliked her dentist referring to her as “dear.” I am a busy ob-gyn. I often call my patients by some such all-purpose term of endearment when I blank out and cannot remember their given name. It only means that I am busy and forgetful and have a lot on my mind. But at the same time, I want the patient to feel closer to me than she would if I did not address her at all. Your dentist only wants you to feel relaxed and comfortable. — Little Doctor Dear Doctor: That won’t work if the patient finds it offensive and condescending. Some people don’t mind the endearment. Those who do need to inform the doctor, and the doctor needs to take the objection seriously. Please e- mail your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net, or write to: Annie’s Mailbox, c/o Creators Syndicate, 737-3rd Street, Hermosa Beach, Calif., 90254.

Terms of Reconciliation. Men are called upon by God to believe His word and obey His laws. If they believe but do not obey they are evil doers, and are at enmity with Him. He will judge them “according to their works” in the light of His law, and not according to their supposititious feelings and traditions. He is their physician and they are the lepers. He, their sovereign, they the rebels against His law. Man has offended God and it becomes him to surrender with the teachableness of a little child.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Don’t get caught up in a colleague or family member’s melodrama. Distance yourself from negativity and embrace people who are trying to do something that will benefit your community or a cause you believe in. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Protect your rights and back away from people who are demanding too much or trying to control your life. Stick to those who share your concerns and you will be much more effective. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) If you need to lift your spirits, you should take a day trip or make pleasant alterations to your home. Sharing your thoughts with a loved one will lead to travel or educational plans. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Set out on an adventure and share your knowledge and experience with those you encounter along the way. The people you touch emotionally and intellectually will offer just as much in return. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Don’t let obstacles hold you back. Size up your situation and turn a lemon into lemonade. A partnership will undergo change, but in the end it will help you make a crucial decision. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) You’ll be drawn toward people who enjoy discussing ideas and are willing to try new things. The more experimental or challenging someone or something becomes, the more your interest will increase. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Capitalize on what you have to offer instead of helping someone else gain

recognition. Focus on your own interests and what you can do with them. You will make a big splash if you work hard. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Take a break, have some fun and try new things. Embark on a journey that stimulates you mentally, physically or emotionally. Romance is on the horizon, and a positive change is heading your way. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don’t get down; get busy. Look for ways to become involved in your community or help someone in need. If you talk less and do more, you will gain respect. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Spend your time fixing up your home and taking care of family and personal comfort. An emotional situation with someone you care about will result in positive changes. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your interest in diverse subjects will help you deepen your awareness and expertise. Setting up a space at home to work on personal projects will ensure that you finish what you start.

Hormones Q: I am having problems with sleep, sex drive, hot flashes, weight gain, mood swings and low energy. What can I do? A: These are just a few symptoms of hormone dysfunction. You need hormone testing (saliva or blood tests) to identify imbalances. Treatment uses bio-identical, plant based hormones that exactly duplicate hormones your body produces.

I would like to thank all my customers for helping make my move to Vernon Dodge a successful one! It is great to be a part of the number one store and sales team in the North Okanagan! I would love the opportunity to show you why Dodge has taken Lorne Pearson over the number one spot as Canada’s top selling brand. I value your business and would like to share with you, your family and friends just why so many Canadians have made the switch to this exciting and affordable brand. And most of alI, I hope everyone has a safe and happy summer!

Bridge by Phillip Alder THE DEFENDERS CAN TRADE AS WELL Jackie Robinson said, “Pop flies, in a sense, are just a diversion for a second baseman. Grounders are his stock in trade.” For bridge players, “trade” ought to be their stock in trade. Last week, we looked at the “trade” acronym from the declarer’s point of view. However, the defenders should also use these tools. Let us start with track the defenders’ and declarer’s tricks. South is in four hearts. West leads a fourth-high club four: three, ace, five. How should East continue? South opened with a weak two-bid, showing a decent six-card suit and

some 6-10 high-card points. North knew that there could be four losers, but maybe the defenders would err or there would be 10 top tricks. It pays to push for game because the bonus for success is so huge. East should ask himself where four defensive tricks might come from. He can see two: the club ace and heart king. West cannot have the spade ace and king, because he would have led the ace, not a club. So, East must hope for one spade, one heart and two clubs. This means that West must be assumed to have the club king. If he also has the spade ace, anything will work. But if West has only the spade king, East must shift to that suit at trick two.

And he should lead the eight or six, high to deny an honor. Here, this leaves South with no chance. But if East plays back a club -returning your suit, partner -- the contract makes. Declarer will be able to draw trumps and discard his spade loser on dummy’s fourth diamond.
