Conservation forced to destroy deer ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff
The North Okanagan’s most photographed deer has been euthanized. A mule deer in Coldstream that clearly showed it was not afraid of human contact was put down by officials Sunday. Conservation officer service officials euthanized the deer in consultation with B.C.’s wildlife veterinarian. “The deer was hand-raised and very habituated to humans, which made it a high risk for unpredictable behaviour,” said the ministry of environment in an e-mail to The Morning Star. “The deer’s behaviour was escalating due to the arrival of the breeding season.” Wildlife managers, also in consultation with the provincial veterinarian, did not support relocating the deer or putting it in captive care, as its extreme habituation presented a risk to the residents of the community or any person near the

animal. Kidston Elementary School principal Kathy Wickum confirmed that the deer had contact with a student’s clothing while on the playground, and had visited the school on a number of occasions. “Wildlife on any school playground is a concern,” said Wickum. The ministry said relocating deer is rarely humane. “There is extremely low survival of deer for a variety of physiological, behavioural and habit reasons,” said the ministry in its release. “It is a common species that is rarely needed for captive collections. “Integrating an animal with this behaviour into a captive herd would be an extreme challenge and may not be possible.” Many photos have surfaced of people having their picture taken with the animal, including one picture that upset the

conservation officer service. “We saw a picture where someone had walked up to the deer and put sunglasses and a hat on it,” said Sgt. Josh Lockwood of the North Okanagan conservation officers service. “How degrading is that to the animal?” A video of the deer being friendly with a young man at Sovereign Park on Kal Lake was posted on YouTube and had nearly 14,000 hits. The ministry advises residents not to approach or feed wildlife. “When wildlife become habituated to people and/or conditioned to feeding on human food sources, they eventually become a risk to public safety and property,” said the release. All human-wildlife conflicts can be reported to the Report All Poachers and Polluters (RAPP) line toll-free at 1 877 952-7277 (RAPP), or visit the RAPP website at: www.rapp.bc.ca.

Anti-GMO crowd plants message at meeting Morning Star Staff
Some 100 people turned out Wednesday evening to put pressure on the region to become GMO free. The Regional Agricultural Advisory Committee (RAAC) meeting Wednesday was bombarded with residents from across the region. They hoped the committee would remind the Regional District of North Okanagan that making a decision on becoming GMO free is pressing. Following a presentation earlier this year from Huguette Allen, Bee SAFE co-founder, the committee wanted to hear the industry side of the GMO topic. Therefore Wednesday’s meeting featured a presentation by CropLife western division vice president Janice Tranberg. Despite a few interruptions, Tranberg managed to complete

Some 100 people gathered at the Regional Agricultural Advisory Committee meeting Wednesday, pressing for a GMO-free region. her presentation. “For the most part it went pretty well, I thought,” said Area B director Bob Fleming. But the anti-GMO crowd says they are fed up with what they call ‘delaying tactics’ and expect the RAAC to make a clear statement

advising NORD on the future of agriculture in the region. “Hundreds of people wrote letters to NORD detailing the negative impacts of GMO crops and their pesticides, on health, the environment, food security, property and land value, and on the
economic potential of the region,” said Allen. “The committee as well as the board of directors have been warned that not making a decision is to sentence us to a corporate agriculture since there is no coexistence with GM crops. They contaminate other crops.” The committee is looking at bringing forward a resolution, to be forwarded to RDNO, at a future meeting. The anti-GMO crowd wants NORD to set a direction for agriculture that will benefit people. Hundreds have written letters and attended meetings and organizations representing thousands more also wrote letters supporting becoming GMO free. The anti-GMO crowd says it knows that such a declaration would not be an enforceable law, but claims it would tell growers

that GM crops are not welcome in the region, and would attract people interested in healthier agriculture instead of more corporate GM growers. They suggest current GM growers could be given a set time to shift to non-GM crops or eventually grandfathered, but requested to not bring in any new GM crop such as GM alfalfa, wheat, and trees.

Dog unit finds woman Morning Star Staff
For the second time in as many weeks, the same Vernon-North Okanagan RCMP police dog team helped retrieve a person missing in the local woods. Police received a call Tuesday shortly after 8 a.m. from an Armstrong woman who reported her daughter had walked away from their home into some woods in the area of Otter Lake Road and Fraser Road. “The mother had concerns for her daughter’s safety as she does suffer from some mental health issues,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. “The attending officer was advised that the missing daughter had previously attempted to harm herself, that is why the concern.” A police service dog unit was called out and after a brief search was able to locate the woman hiding in bushes along the train tracks. The young woman was returned back home and then transported to Vernon Jubilee Hospital where she is currently receiving treatment. “The quick action of the team likely went a long way in getting this person treatment in the proper time period,” said Molendyk This dog team successfully tracked and rescued a missing man in Spallumcheen late in August.

Township passes bylaw despite road concerns roger knox Morning Star Staff
Land use designations in one-third of Spallumcheen’s southeast sector will change. Council gave third reading and adoption to an official community plan amendment bylaw from Vernonbased Willowhaven Investments that will change 21 large holdings and commercial parcels in the south hub sector to a combination of large and small holdings, commercial and open spaces. “It’s a pretty complicated procedure we’ve been through in the number of years we’ve been doing this,” said David
Pusey of Willowhaven Investments at the outset of a 90-minute public hearing and discussion on the proposal. “As a group, we appreciate the planners’ and council’s help.” The hearing drew more than 30 people. Township planner Greg Routley explained that the properties total 489 acres located east of Highway 97A, north of Regional District of North Okanagan electoral areas B and C and on Crown lands in the upper area on the east side. He said Willowhaven Investments provided council with a comprehensive concept plan and supporting studies
“This will be a good thing in my mind.” — Ed Hanoski
which addressed things like sewer and water servicing, storm water management, and traffic and aquifer impacts. The plan also mentioned proposed transportation corridors. “The corridors would be traversing property primarily in an eastwest direction through the property going from Highway 97 upward, on lands to the south and connections to Greenhow, Ridgeview,

Ve r n o n V i r t u a l E d u c a t i o n
“Where Students Come First”
Glenhayes, McLennan and Keddleston Roads,” said Routley. The roads drew the vast majority of discussion at the public hearing. Electoral Area C director Mike Macnabb said the proposal doesn’t follow the township’s policy to have all roads to subdivisions contained within Spall’s boundaries. “The access roads will be through areas B and C,” said Macnabb. “I take some exception to that. The residents will bear the inconvenience of further traffic on their roads
with no benefit.” Macnabb’s RDNO colleague, Area B director Bob Fleming, agreed with Macnabb. He added he drove potential access, or connecting, roads and said all had obvious hazards. “The concern is the quality of the roads,” said Fleming. “The grades, lack of pavement and twisting nature of the roads and not so much residential traffic that might be borne after development takes place...but all the construction.” F o r m e r Spallumcheen councillor John Toporchak, who has lived below the southeast sector for more than 40 years, is not against the development but wants the roads built strictly in the township. “The municipality should serve their
own property,” said Toporchak. “I don’t think we should piggyback on our neighbours to the south. The traffic should come off Highway 97.” Pat Corbett, a resident of McLennan Road, said he’s lived at his property since 1982 and has never had a problem with the roadway. “It’s a good road, not a gold trail, and there’s been no accidents in that time,” said Corbett, who presented a 14-name petition to council supporting the Willowhaven proposal. “It’s not an unsafe road.” Elsie Dahlen, a resident of Greenhow Road since 1972, gave her blessing to the proposal. “We’d like you to consider our position. Just because you’re first in the area doesn’t mean that you object to everyone else living there,”

said Dahlen. “We want our young people to be able to live there and have a nice one-and-ahalf acre or three-acre parcel. Why should they be denied this?” Anita Ray, a Spallumcheen resident, said she’s looking forward to being able to raise her family on an affordable parcel of land. “I look forward to seeing my friends and their families doing the same,” said Ray. “I think this development will allow that to happen.” Pusey said the connecting roads would likely be used as much by residents of area B and C as they would by residents in the development. Council gave unanimous support to third reading and adoption of the bylaw, though Coun. Christine Fraser excused herself from the entire public hearing as her family has property in the southeast sector. “Having done this kind of stuff in the past, it’s baby steps and you have to do it the best you can and do it right,” said Coun. Ed Hanoski. “We do need land in this area. We’ve got farmland, we’ve got valleys and we’ve got hillsides, so where are you going to put the houses? It’s going to be the hillsides. This will be a good thing in my mind.”
For the record The Morning Star wishes to clarify an article from Sunday’s paper. Greater Vernon Advisory Committee has recommended the Regional District of North Okanagan board adopt a bylaw that limits a person to having four dogs in a designated dog park. The bylaw has not yet been ratified, but the recommendation will be considered at the RDNO board’s general meeting, Wednesday, Oct. 2.

Control burn starts today Morning Star Staff
Don’t be alarmed if you see smoke east of Vernon over the next month-and-a-half. A prescribed burning program is being planned in the South Fork area east of Vernon, starting Friday until Oct. 30, weather conditions permitting. The controlled burn will assist with ecosystem restoration and will occur in several phases during the period. The burn will be conducted by Wildfire Management Branch crews and Okanagan Shuswap Natural Resource District staff. The South Fork burn area covers approximately 32 hectares and is about 12.5 kilometres east of Cherryville, north of Highway 6. Historically, grasslands and open forests in the Okanagan have been renewed through frequent, low-intensity ground fires. Such fires limit tree encroachment, rejuvenate understory plants (trees and shrubs that grow beneath the forest canopy but above ground-cover plants) and help maintain open grasslands and open forests containing large trees.

Puppy parent
y pup had his first birthday the other day. The main reason I know that is he was born on Sept. 11, a date not many people are likely to forget. We’ve had Bo since he was seven weeks old, and it’s weird to think he has been part of our family for that long. My early memories of him are of sleepless nights and potty training (I finally got wise and installed a dog door). Oh, and he was pretty cute too. Graeme Corbett There’s still a lot of puppy left in Bo, and it’ll probably take another year before we completely run the crazy out of him. And he still pees on his front feet because he has yet to learn to lift his leg, but he is well on his way to becoming an actual dog. We have worked with a couple of trainers over the past year to improve his obedience, both with positive results, but one of them stands out. Not only because of his methods and effectiveness, but because of who he is and how much I originally underestimated him. When David Weir strutted through my gate, I was skeptical to say the least. Here is this 15-year-old kid, maybe 5-foot-6 and 130 pounds, sporting a straight-brimmed Oakley ball cap, bright T-shirt and track pants. He looked more suited for the skateboard park than the dog park. My initial hesitation lasted all of 10 seconds. I could tell David had his game face on, and once he was through that gate, my dogs knew it too (we also have an eight-year-old black lab cross). It was intriguing to watch the interaction between Bo and David, who immediately went about “claiming” his space in our yard. And with the rapport soon established, and David firmly entrenched as The Pack Leader (that’s the name of his business), we spent the following weeks addressing some of Bo’s (and our) issues. Gone are the days when Bo would inces-

santly bark and circle me while I pushed the lawn mower or wheel barrel. He isn’t half-bad on a leash now, and while he still barks at visitors, he isn’t a complete lunatic. One of our main reasons for seeking out David was that Bo liked to bark at, and chase, kids. When our five-year-old nephew visits, it is inevitable that he will want to run and jump and play in the yard, all of which trigger Bo’s herding instincts. That too has been dealt with. One of my lasting impressions of our training sessions with David is him picking up my nephew and spinning and running around the yard in the pouring rain, trying to elicit a reaction from Bo. He didn’t get one. The more I get to know David, the more I am impressed by how he handles himself. I know 40-somethings who aren’t as with it as he is. When I was 15, there is no way I would be comfortable telling adults what to do. He is an absolute soccer fanatic. He is the keeper for the Vernon United Under 17 boys team that went to provincials this summer in Prince George. He also coaches youth soccer and is a referee/linesman for some of the other local leagues. David isn’t of age yet, so his mother drives him to our sessions. She also volunteers to assist in the training. Before Bo came along, we were actually considering adopting a mature rescue dog so we wouldn’t have to go through the rigmaroles of training and housebreaking a puppy. That all changed when our friend’s Swiss Mountain Dog hopped his fence and knocked up the neighbour’s border collie. The neighbour showed up one day and, half jokingly, asked when our friend would like to pick up his litter of 11 puppies. Our friend took two of the pups, and eventually got all three fixed. Knowing the sire and herding instincts of the mother (she is a working cattle dog), we decided the offspring would be a good mix to have on our hobby farm. I doubt Bo will ever be used as a herder, but he is bright, alert and, while slightly undersized (his dad is 85 pounds and Bo is 45 pounds soaking wet), he is turning out to be a great addition to the family.
One man’s mission, actually a Marathon of Hope, to outrun cancer continues across the country Sunday. Terry Fox started his journey in 1980 with little fanfare and today, even after his passing, Canada continues to run in his name. “Even if I don’t finish, we need others to continue,” said Fox. “It’s got to keep going without me.” Locally, the annual event goes Sunday at Coldstream Elementary at 9 a.m. (registration is at 8 a.m.) But the continuation of the Marathon of Hope has not survived in some regions. The annual event has been cancelled in several Canadian communities this year, including Abbotsford, due to a lack of volunteers. The same fate nearly hit Vernon a couple years back, but luckily several volunteers stepped up just in time. “Everyone has been touched by cancer in some way,” said Diana Williamson, who is chairing the organizing committee for this year’s event. “We’re really looking for the community to participate.” And that can mean by running, or walking, cycling, pushing a stroller – plus four-legged friends are also welcome. After all the cause may be serious but the event is all about fun and coming together as a community to carry on Terry’s legacy. Plus this year it’s even easier to take part as the new Team Up for Terry component means family, friends and sports clubs can get together and tackle the route as a team. So get involved and take part by finding out more at terryfox. org where you can register, donate or download pledges. You’ll be glad you did.

bypass options Earlier this summer my wife and I were caught in gridlock in the Lower Mainland. It took three and half hours to travel from the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal to Abbotsford. Therefore it is with some motivation that I follow the current interest in what to do about the perennial issue of congestion on Highway 97 as it passes through Vernon. Certainly in the busy summer season our patience can be tried and we long for some way to divert traffic around our little city. As the frustration builds some begin to play the easy game of criticizing local officials past or present for a lack of foresight or vision. This writer is no stranger to this pastime. Perhaps a better approach would be to examine what has been done in the recent past to alleviate congestion and ask realistic questions about what could be done in the future. Faced with the unlikelihood of a provincially funded bypass the City of Vernon chose to improve north

Some observations on health care
ecently out of four weeks fighting a stubborn, systemic infection threatening to shut down my ability to carry on as a functioning adult, one of those weeks was spent in the local hospital. I learned, through observation and questioning, a few things that the health administration in this province might wish to take into consideration. First of all, the system is broken and needs fixing, immediately. Our BC Ministry of Health ought to be out front in leading society to a place of wellness and wellbeing. It isn’t. I learned that hospitals do not recycle anything for whatever reason, which is absolutely irresponsible and preposterous in this day and age. The excuse seems to be that contamination might somehow occur. Balderdash! Secondly, our nurses are not underpaid. They are however, grossly overworked. The average nurse in the execution of his/her duties in a 12-hour shift walks or runs approximately 16 kilometres

or 10 miles, if you prefer. No, I am not kidding. Research has been done with pedometers and a nurse can execute 16,000 steps or more in a shift and that folks equates, at a metre a step, to 16 km. The care these nursing practitioners provide is superb and “seldom is heard a discouraging word.” However, when you ask for something or are due for a medication or treatment and your attending nurse runs from your room saying, “I’ll be right back," and you don’t see her/him for quite a spell, you can bet your ‘sweet bippy’ that she/ he has been drawn in several direcsouth routes within the city. Alexis Park Drive was widened, 27th Street improved by allowing four lanes of traffic (including a road diet section from 43rd to 48th) and the first two phases of the Polson Greenway were completed. These improvements in capacity were designed to entice local traffic away from Highway 97. In addition the intersection of Highway 6 and Highway 97 received a major redesign resulting in a huge increase in efficiency. There is no panacea for congestion but the local drivers in Vernon do have options that avoid the busy Highway 97. Could more be done to help the flow on Highway 97? I believe so. The intersection at Highway 97 and 48th Avenue can be vexing. The lack of right hand turn lanes contributes a real lack of flow at what is one of the busiest intersections in Vernon. Drivers who would choose to use the improved Alexis Park Drive are forced to wait for several changes of lights before being able to turn right

tions of priority, all superseding yours. And each nurse is responsible for four or five patients plus assisting other nurses with their wards. So think about it. And they simply do everything. They bring you meds, supply you with water or juice, serve your meal trays, help you up or down, walk with you for support, bathe you or accompany you to the shower room and wash your hair and help you get squeaky once again. They take your vitals and keep copious records of every little thing pertaining to your condition....You may add your own litany to this list of onto 48th. The result is that vehicles are backed up past the shopping centre. Perhaps instead of lobbying for an expensive bypass that would divert income-producing traffic around our community; our local officials should pursue a redesign of this troublesome intersection which could improve things. The price tag for this redo might be appealing to the provincial government who is ultimately responsible for the efficient flow of traffic on Highway 97. We are fortunate to live in a city that strives to improve the transportation options available to its citizens. We are also fortunate that a majority of local drivers are patient and understanding during the busy tourist season. shawn Lee great job All you Smiths and Jones out there wouldn't understand but having the last name Stelmachowich can be interesting.
actions nurses take to get you home where you want to be and ought to be. Okay now, how about waste, and I don’t mean garbage. Senior management salaries are out of sight and in my opinion totally unwarranted. If a healthy society is the goal, then removing a zero from an executive’s stipend ought to be considered. Any program or initiative which does not directly impact patient care and improvement ought to be scrapped. Even the hint that a procedure has been introduced to benefit only the corporation promoting it should not be allowed. I’m thinking of the lab assistants who collect blood samples by wrapping a rubber strap painfully around your bicep before ‘the little poke’. They have been instructed to toss each strap after each use. If the hospital gown covered the bicep area and the strap was tied over the material it would effectively reduce the discomfort and more importantly prevent the strap from touching the skin and becoming contaminated, I was in the downtown Safeway recently and was being waited on by a young man named Jeremy. When they ring you through they are supposed to say "Have a great day Mrs. Whoever." In all my 46 years of going through stores and banks, no one has ever pronounced my last name correctly (the Ukrainian way, I mean). I do walk away chuckling at their attempts but thus far, they have never gotten it right. Step up Jeremy...Have a good day Ms. Stelmacovich (that's how it is pronounced). Once I picked myself up off the ground, I asked him how he knew. He said I was a referee for Vernon Minor Hockey for years and he had to learn how to pronounce a lot of different names and then say them quickly. Kudos to Jeremy for perfecting his tongue, kudos to Vernon Minor Hockey for teaching him the trade and to Safeway for hiring a brilliant young man. tammy stelmachowich
which is the alleged groundless fear, I hear. I saved my rubber strap and insisted it be used instead of a fresh one every time. I wonder how much this step alone would save the administration to be put toward nurses’ wages? And remember when, in the old days, you received your meds in a little paper cup and the nurse went over each one with you to make sure that the right pill and the correct dose was being administered? Well, apparently that wasn’t good enough, because now each individual pill is placed in a blister pack with label to avoid mistakes. And the cost of all this pill packaging? Alberta Health Services recently laid off 200 nurses as a “technical requirement of transferring Registered Nurses to areas where they’re most needed.” Excuse me, what is that supposed to mean? They’re needed everywhere for Pete’s sake. The ‘disease’ is endemic folks, and requires immediate treatment to achieve a healthy environment for all participants. edgar Murdoch

With the Oyama Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion in danger of closing down permanently, the District of Lake Country has given the non-profit group partial savings on the property taxes it pays. But at least one Lake Country councillor was hoping the district would go further. Located in the Oyama Community Centre the Legion pays property taxes that are levied because it operates a lounge, where members that fought in various wars including the second World War, the Korean War and now the Afghanistan War can enjoy an alcoholic beverage. But with membership dwindling and the group in debt to the Oyama Community Hall, the Legion had applied to the

Oyama Legion secretary Rob Nairne says a 50 per cent cut in property taxes will help the Legion stay afloat. district for tax exempt status. “The only way we can pay our expenses and these taxes is through monies generated by our bar,” said Rob Nairne, secretary for the Oyama Legion, Branch 189. “That unfortunately has declined significantly due to very stringent drinking and driving laws that
have cost us business and membership.” After making a presentation to council and asking for tax exempt status, already given to several other non-profits in Lake Country, DLC councillors weren’t convinced the Legion needed a full exemption and instead voted for the 50 per cent exemption.

“I guess I can’t talk the other councillors into going for the full savings,” asked Coun. Rob Geier, who received no support for his offer before council voted unanimously on the 50 per cent savings. Coun. Lisa Cameron put forward the motion and said she didn’t think there would be enough support to ask for a full tax exemption. “Fifty per cent was a compromise,” said Cameron. “I really wanted to help them out but we have to be careful of those exemptions because a lot of groups are looking for them.” Nairne said most of the executive of the Legion were happy with the reduction. “We’re in trouble but 50 per cent is 50 per cent,” said Nairne. “If it’s $1,500 savings that’s significant. If we could have had it all that would have been nice but anything will help.” Nairne said the Legion donated more than $11,000 last year to various Lake Country organizations with money raised at the lounge. It also provided four scholarships to Lake Country students with Nairne saying this year that number will likely be reduced due to a lack of funds. Lake Country council wasn’t willing to forgive all of the property taxes with district staff saying the Legion operates a lounge that is deemed to be a business. Nairne says the only way the Legion is able to pay the property taxes as well as other expenses is through the club’s lounge. The partial exemption was for a five-year period but staff has been directed to have a look to see how the savings is affecting the Legion after one year.

Greater Vernon could have some potentially significant recycling changes in the bag. A new blue bag system could be picked up by the Regional District of North Okanagan with Multi-Material BC. The plan, which includes a financial incentive for the regional district, may in turn result in a reduction for residents in their utility invoicing for recycling. Residents currently pay $18/annually for blue bag recycling, but if a contract with MMBC is approved RDNO would receive $34 per household/annually. “In May 2014 MMBC will start to collect a portion of every packaging,” said Nicole Kohnert, regional engineering services manager. Those funds, paid through customer purchases, would then be paid to the district. If RDNO can accept the MMBC terms and can offer the blue bag service for less than $34, the approximately 29,3000 households will not be billed for the biweekly service. RDNO has until Monday to accept or decline the offer. Through the MMBC contract, the regional district would be obligated to provide blue bags to customers, which is why a cart system is also being considered. “One of the complicating factors is do we want to still use the bags?” said Kohnert. A cart system (as is currently used in the Central Okanagan Regional District) for collection would use mechanized trucks with electronic arms to grab and dump bins. “The purchase of the bins is a big cost,” said Coldstream director Doug Dirk. Although the bins are quite large, curbside collection could also be limited. But the use of bins, which could also expand to yard waste collection, isn’t going over well with some regional politicians. “How are you going to improve employment opportunities if you
mechanize everything?” said Coldstream Coun. Gyula Kiss. Coun. Pat Cochrane added: “Sounds like a step backwards.” Drop centres could also see some changes, with additional containers and the requirement of customers to presort paper/cardboard, plastic containers, Styrofoam, plastic film and glass.
The current collection contract expires May 2014 and MMBC proposes a five-year contract (with two one-year extensions). Tendering of collection would take place by late October, if not sooner. The total annual incentive offered for the collection program, and that would be paid to the RDNO by MMBC,
is estimated to be $1 million. The services currently cost the district and residents $776,475. The Vernon and District Association for Community Living currently does glass collection and delivery and Styrofoam collection. “Venture Training could still be involved,” said Dirk.

“Making your home come to life”
Enrolment figures up Morning Star Staff
Enrolment looks to be a little better than last spring’s projections in the North Okanagan Shuswap School District but still down approximately 200 students from last school year. “It looks like we’re up a little bit from projections with elementary up around 50 students and secondary up 17,” said Superintendant Glenn Borthistle at the first regular meeting for the North Okanagan Shuswap Board of Education Tuesday. He noted these numbers are still very preliminary and the district will have a better idea on the ministry’s enrolment “snapshot” day on Sept. 30. “But, it looks like we’re sitting at about 5,800 and last year we were right around 6,000 students.” Off to Prague Pleasant Valley Secondary is hitting the road, travelling to Prague and Amsterdam from March 17 to April 6, 2014 (17 days in Prague and two in Amsterdam). Calvin White, who along with Debbie Almquist is organizing the trip, said students are immersed in the rich arts culture of Prague and will not only tour historic sites but will also take in opera, ballet, symphony, and jazz performances as well as go to art galleries and museums. “The whole idea of the trip is to introduce kids from a small area like this and show them the possibilities in the world,” comments White. PVSS is also making a 21-day trip to Thailand in July. The trip offers students the opportunity of not only doing “touristy” things in Thailand (riding an elephant, rafting and scuba diving lessons) it also offers them a chance to be immersed in Thai culture through volunteering at an orphanage and spending a day at a Thai school. Exchange to Sister City Inashiki, Japan An annual overseas exchange is moving to a bi-annual event. The annual exchange to Sister City Inashiki, Japan will take place March 22-31, 2014. By the agreement on both sides, this will be the last annual trip. Moving forward the trip will be held every other year. Borthistle commented that after speaking with the City of Salmon Arm (who also takes part in the exchanges), and representatives from Inashiki, it was agreed that every other year would be more financially feasible. Sexual health meetings Parents and students are reminded of some important upcoming sessions on sexual health, being offered by Family Life teacher Cathi Johnston, in October. Three sessions will be held at Pleasant Valley Secondary in Armstrong on Oct. 22-23-24. Each evening will run from 6:30 to 7:45 p.m.

Mohr house makes historic improvements Morning Star Staff
There are plenty of smiles from a Vernon dentist office. Dr. Karl Denk’s office, in a Vernon heritage home located at 2301-32nd Avenue, received council approval of a heritage restoration grant of $5,000 to assist with installing new siding and window trim and associated restoration work on the exterior of the building. Located on a prominent corner of Pleasant Valley Road, the Mohr house is Vernon’s remaining example of a high-style Second Empire residence. It is a one-and-a-half storey house with a mansard
roof and dormer windows. Built in 1893, the form of the building is rectangular with a dominant bay with a mansard roof and two dormers. A recessed bay contains a single dormer window. Other Second Empire design details include the shallow roof overhang, pairs of eaves brackets and the round- headed gables on the dormer windows. The house is clad in drop siding and a variety of decorative boards, including panels of vertical bevelled siding. There are several bay windows with flat roofs. The Second Empire
style became the official style for federal buildings in Canada in the 1870- 1880s. The house is also notable for its association with its original owner, C. E. Mohr, who had migrated from Ontario around 1891. Mohr was a wood turner at Smith and Clerin’s Sawmill at the time of the building’s construction. It is believed Mohr built the house himself. By 1898, the Vernon Directory identified him as a carpenter. The house has had many subsequent owners. The house, rehabilitated into a dentist office, now has its main
entry facing Pleasant Valley Road. In 2012, the city presented a heritage plaque, in recognition of the heritage significance of the building.
Vernon City Council has established, and provides, funds for the Heritage Restoration Grant Program. The program applies to properties listed on
the Vernon Heritage Register in order to assist owners with the cost of restoring the exterior, foundations and roof structures of heritage buildings.

Barrie cards Cowgirls’ scholarship Kevin Mitchell Sports Editor
Don’t let the ‘Swing Like A Girl’ golf shirt fool you. Mackenzie Barrie can, and does, play with the best boys in town. A two-sport star, Barrie chose the links over hockey and has earned a scholarship with the NCAA Division 1 University of Wyoming Cowgirls in Laramie. “I loved both sports, but with golf, there’s more possibility down the road,” said Barrie, a 5-foot-8 Seaton honour roll grad. “With hockey, especially females, your career ends basically right after university. You can play on the Olympic team, but only a select few do, so with golf, I think there are more career possibilities or coaching, if I go that route.” Barrie is big off the tee and has received prime coaching the last two years. She now regularly e-mails and tweets A.J. Eathorne of Predator Ridge. Eathorne won just over $1 million in an 11-year LPGA Tour career. “I switched about a month ago and I really like Sean (Richardson),” said Barrie. “He’s done a lot for my game; it was just time for a switch and I’d like to thank him for all the stuff that he’s done for me. I switched to A.J. Eathorne up at Predator Ridge and she’s done a lot for my game, not only with the swing, the mental side. She has so much knowledge about the game because she’s being around it so long.” Eathorne, a 37-year-old Penticton product, was an AllAmerican with the New Mexico State Aggies, and believes Barrie has the mind-set to succeed in the college game. Barrie often shadowed Eathorne at the Predator academy, where Eathorne runs the popular ‘Swing Like a Girl’ classes. “She’s a sponge and she’s a hard worker,” said Eathorne. “Like me, she gets frustrated because she wants to be the best. One of her strengths is that she really doesn’t get down on herself. Maybe that comes from her hockey background Kevin Mitchell/Morning Star because she realizes the game never stops. vernon’s Mackenzie Barrie has earned a scholarship with the ncAA Division 1 University of Wyoming cowgirls in laramie. “It’s tough to battle the ups and downs, but she will work hard and things will pay off. She has the skills and confidence “We are very happy with the quality of athlete and student bit up and down. It was a very, very difficult course and I and she’s a strong girl; she just has to believe.” that we are getting with Mackenzie,” said Stender. “She played kind of learned a lot about myself that week, how to play on Eathorne, who was actually fired by PGA Tour player Kris Blanks for being too positive as a caddy (she later carried the those more challenging courses.

Forward Liam Coughlin (above, middle) battles with defenceman ryan renz in front of netminder austin Smith during the Vernon Vipers’ practice Wednesday afternoon at Kal tire Place. Vernon’s Jerred Smithson (top right), an NHL free agent skating with the Vipers, offers a few pointers to forward mike Iovanna. Defenceman mark Hamilton (below) makes an outlet pass.

and models his game after the feisty Marchand. “He’s a scrappy player, so I like that,” said Iovanna, who is committed to the NCAA Division 1 Massachusetts Amherst Minutemen. “I’m a smaller guy so I tend to watch the smaller guys out there.” Iovanna, who has the most noticeable Boston accent of the three, played prep school hockey with Malden Catholic. He said relocating across the continent to play Junior A has been a big adjustment. “Just not seeing my parents every day and my family – that’ll take some time to get used to,” he said. He added main camp was a little nerve-racking. “It was a weird experience thinking I could go home at any time.” One of the reasons Iovanna came to Vernon was a recommendation from Noonan, a Nashville Predators’ draft pick entering his senior year with the Boston University Terriers. “We had a meeting with Noonan, and he explained the process of coming out here and sold us on the idea,” said Iovanna. Said Williamson: “Relationships are key. Sometimes our former players are our best recruiters. If they’ve had good experiences and been treated well, it just breeds. We’ve got a good reputation out there.”
Williamson first noticed the 6-foot-3, 220-pound Hamilton when he scouted the U.S. Under 18 national championships in Pittsburgh. Hamilton captained the Salisbury Crimson Knights to the New England Prep School title before winning the U18 national crown.

Knights well-armed Morning Star Staff
If the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League preseason is anything to go by, the North Okanagan Knights look primed for another long march this season. Shawn Webb’s Knights, who were KIJHL finalists last year, capped a 3-0 exhibition schedule Monday with a 9-2 thrashing of the Chase Heat at Nor-Val Sports Centre. North Okanagan opens the regular season tonight (7:30) against the Heat at Nor-Val before visiting the Princeton Posse Saturday. “It wasn’t an enjoyable game for Chase,” said Webb, who is taking over head coaching duties from Kris Mallette, now an associate coach with the BCHL Vernon Vipers. “Running up the score is inevitable if we play a certain way. “Our goal is to be in our zone for as short a time as possible. The offensive zone is where we go to have fun.” What made Monday’s outcome
more impressive is that Webb dressed just two veterans. Fourth-year forward Brett Hawrys was one of them, scoring three goals, while Tanner Burns, the team’s lone 20-year-old, chipped in with three assists as North Okanagan outshot Chase 68-15. Justin Lange, a 17-year-old Kelowna product, and Vernon’s Blaine Caton, who played with the Knights as a 15-year-old call-up last season, each supplied 1+2. Dennon Leibel, another Vernon native, had two helpers. “I really like our energy and our IQ level,” said Webb. “The kids are showing a definite willingness to learn.” Another surprise Monday were the 200 fans who came to watch a Junior B exhibition game. “There’s a lot of buzz around town, and as much as we’ve only got a fraction of returning players, those returning kids are carrying quite a mentality that’s rubbing off on our newbies,” said Webb.

Heat bring firepower to VSS Morning Star Staff
The UBC Okanagan Heat will hold an intrasquad game Tuesday (5 p.m.) at VSS. The VSS Panthers senior girls are sponsoring the event. Admission is by a Food Bank donation. Lenai Schmidt, who played volleyball at VSS in Grades 8-10 before transferring to Kal for her final two years, helping the Lakers claim the 2008 provincial senior AA title, is a fifth-year Libero with the Heat. Heat outside hitter Megan Festival (fifth year, Calgary) and her Alberta teammates struck gold at the Canada Summer Games in Sherbrooke, Que. Alberta pulled off a stunning comeback, winning the last three sets to defeat B.C. 3-2 (21-25, 13-25, 25-13, 25-20, 15-9). B.C. had only lost two sets in the entire tournament. Kelowna native and Heat sophomore Kaitlynn Given was second on Team B.C. with 11 kills. Brianna Beamish and Katy Klomps, both of Surrey, and North Vancouver products Emily Oxland and Katie Wuttunnee, also represented
UBCO on Team B.C. Oxland was superb in her freshman year, as a setter, making the Canada West All-Star team. Klomp, a middle, recorded 1.30 blocks per set (4th best in CIS) last season. After a hard-fought playoff loss to Mt. Royal Cougars to conclude the 2012-2013 Canada West season, the Heat will begin preparations for this season, hosting friendly scrimmages and games this weekend with the Saskatchewan Huskies and the Trinity Western Spartans. Scrimmages with Saskatchewan and Trinity Western go today at 1 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. and follow Saturday at 10 a.m., 2 p.m. and 6 p.m. before finishing Sunday at 10 a.m. The Heat will miss the services of Alexandra Basso (Kelowna), their only graduating player from last season. The core remains intact and boasts impressive depth. A majority of fifth-year players will bring poise to the Heat court, while head coach Steve Manuel will have the added advantage of infusing talent from the bench.
Webb goes with youth movement Continued from A23
“We’re here to win hockey games.” North Okanagan is rolling with a dozen rookies, including goaltenders Zach Dyment and Mitch Profeit, the younger brother of returning d-man Dryden Profeit. Four of the Knights’ six defencemen are 1996born players, which gave Webb some cause for concern heading into the season. “They’re young, but their skill level was evident in these three games,” he said. The Knights will miss the firepower of departing forwards Matty Saharchuk (Vipers), Morgan Johnston (West Kelowna Warriors), Colton Thibault
(Salmon Arm SilverBacks) and Derek Andrews, who aged out, but Webb feels they are deeper up front than last year. Burns, Hawrys and Mat Lambert (Vernon) can be counted on to provide offence, while the line of Owen Barker, Anthony Ruggerio and newcomer Tyler Godberson of Calgary will offer plenty of grit and energy. “Our style of play is going to frustrate teams,” said Webb, who had yet to finalize his letter wearers before the Morning Star’s Thursday press time. Other North Okanagan products with the Knights include: forward Logan Geefs and blueliners Riley Booth, Austin Garrington and Matt Halvorson.

Library initiates idea exchange Morning Star Staff
A new forum has been started to exchange ideas at the Vernon library. The Vernon Branch of the Okanagan Regional Library is pleased to announce the launch of The Idea Exchange, a regular forum where community members can join together to discover new thoughts, debate topics and share ideas. The first forum takes place Sept. 26. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and the film starts at 7, with discussion to follow. The Library and The Centre for Inquiry are copresenting the documentary film The Revisionaries. The film showcases how public education has become the latest battleground in a new wave of cultural, religious and ideological clashes, with local Texas education board members advancing agendas of Creationism and other religious issues in public schools. This documentary highlights how their tactics have had the effect of rewriting key tenets of U.S. democracy and are affecting educational policies at the national level - for generations to come. The event is free of charge and everyone is welcome. For more information on the film, visit http:// therevisionariesmovie.com/ Cheryville hour changes The Cherryville Branch of the Okanagan Regional Library will have a change in open hours beginning Oct. 2.

With more than two weeks until players tee off, the Wine, Women and Woods golf tournament is already sold out, but donations are still being accepted towards a future without breast cancer.

Tourney on target Morning Star Staff
This year’s Wine Women and Woods charity golf tournament has received such a huge response that with more than two weeks to go the tournament has a full roster of golfers and has every hole sponsored and major contributors already signed. “This year’s tournament has received such support we cannot thank the community enough for its contribution to this very worthwhile cause,” said Kathy Parton, committee chair. “144 golfers will play the Predator Course at Predator Ridge on Sept. 29 and many will be wearing pink and honoring the theme, ‘I am woman, hear me roar!” The Wine Women and Woods tournament was launched 11 years ago by Cheryl Kaminsky. Its aim is to raise funds so that someday we can say we live in a world without breast cancer. Working in conjunction with the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation, more than $600,000 has been raised with all of it staying in our local community.
This year’s funds will go toward the Vernon Jubilee Hospital Digital Mammography Campaign. This is an ambitious project that will take more than one year to come to fruition. Digitizing is vital as the equipment is aging and often breaks down. By becoming digitized, instant photos can be produced thus cutting down on wait times for results. The images are clearer and diagnosis quicker and better. It is a sad truth that most of us have been touched by cancer either personally or with a family member or friend – all of us need to help find the elusive cure for this devastating disease. Anyone wishing to contribute to this event can go online to: www. winewomenandwoods.com where there is an ‘online donation’ button. You can sponsor a player, a team or just donate to the event. Tax receipts will be supplied by the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. All donations are welcome – this year’s goal is $100,000.

Clark’s government will be asked to undo a couple of decades of political meddling in that relationship. One problem for local governments is that they depend on property tax, a stable source of revenue but one that has no relationship to the property owner’s ability to pay. It tends to load costs onto lower-income groups such as seniors and renters. Economic growth results mainly in increased corporate and personal income tax revenues as well as sales taxes, which aren’t shared with local governments. One key proposal is to return to a system of revenue sharing grants introduced by the Social Credit government in the 1980s. They were funded by one point each from personal and corporate income tax and six per cent of sales, fuel and resource tax revenues, thus increasing in years when provincial revenues were strong. The UBCM proposal is to put a share of provincial revenues into an infrastructure bank, to be distributed by the organization on a more stable basis. Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the authors of the report, uses a basketball analogy to describe the current system of federal-provincial grants for road and bridge projects. It’s a “jump ball,” where communities have to apply to a fund when it’s offered and then see who gets it. Even if a community wins the jump ball, they may find themselves with costs inflated by a hot construction market and an arbitrary deadline to get the job done. Then there are new regulations imposed by senior governments. The most dramatic example these days is a 2020 federal deadline for Greater Victoria to construct land-based sewage treatment. Even with federal and provincial cost sharing, this project is going to land heavily on property tax bills, including those of pensioners and poor renters who will have it passed on to them. Leonard points to another arbitrary system, provincial facilities that pay grants in lieu of property taxes. Saanich is home to the University of Victoria, a community of 25,000 people that needs water and sewer service, as well as police and fire protection. Saanich gets an annual grant in lieu of property taxes of $120,000 for UVic, enough to cover wages and benefits for one cop and maybe some gas money. Cariboo Regional District chair Al Richmond, co-chair of the UBCM committee, is concerned about new water and flood protection legislation the province is preparing to impose. His district and others like it have thousands of kilometres of riverfront, with relatively few property owners. Interior communities also want BC Hydro to pay something for power lines, as is now being done with some aboriginal territories. Local politicians will be expecting a sympathetic ear from the new version of the B.C. Liberal government. Former Quesnel councillor Coralee Oakes is the new community, sport and cultural development minister, with direct responsibility for local government issues. And one of the original members of this UBCM committee was former Langley City mayor Peter Fassbender, who is now minister of education.

Lumby artists bring colour to the equinox Morning Star Staff
As the leaves start to turn colour, there’s no better way to celebrate the fall equinox than through art. The Monashee Arts Council (MAC) has teamed up with The Village Gallery in Lumby to host their inaugural Autumn Equinox Arts Festival Saturday, Sept. 21 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The festival will be held at The Village Gallery and MAC office at 1961 Vernon St. (Highway 6) as well as in Norris Park, which is adjacent to the building. “There will be so much happening in Lumby on Sept. 21. We really encourage everyone to come downtown to check things out,” said Jennifer Greenwood, MAC arts and culture program coordinator. “Not only are we hosting our art festival, but the Lumby Public Market will be open at Oval Park from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. and the newly opened Gateway Healing Arts Centre will be holding its grand opening just across the street from us. There will be so much to experience in Lumby that day.” The art festival will feature local musicians entertaining residents and visitors throughout the day under the cover of the gazebo in the park. Live music will kick off at 10:30 a.m. with the cool, classic rock of Rick Holloway, followed by an energizing performance by the Tribally Hipnotic Belly Dance Troupe.

Lumby artists Olena Bramble, left, and Monica Brown demonstrate their techniques in painting and throwing a pot on the wheel. Artist demonstrations are part of the Autumn Equinox Arts Festival, put on by the Village Gallery and the Monashee Arts Council, Sept. 21 in Lumby. Rounding things off will be Priscilla Judd’s thought-provoking protest songs in the tradition of Woody Guthrie and Joan Baez, performed on an acoustic, handmade guitar. Several local artists will be on hand demonstrating their various talents.
“At press time, we had everything from pottery to various styles of painting to weaving and spinning confirmed,” said Greenwood. The Village Gallery artists will also be holding an old stock and seconds sale on the
day of the festival. The gallery has expanded to more than 20 members since it opened its doors in March, with the support and assistance of the MAC. “We are incredibly fortunate to have so many amazing artists of such varied talents in our area,” said Greenwood. “Sharing the office space with the gallery allows us to work cooperatively and reach out to other artists. People are starting to hear about us and are making a point of coming to Lumby to see what we have to offer.” In addition, longtime Lumby resident and Village Gallery artist Robin LeDrew will be offering portraits to anyone who would like to make a donation to the MAC’s bursary fund, which supports local students who wish to pursue further education in the arts after graduating from high school. “The Scotiabank in Lumby is also supporting the MAC bursary fund with a hot dog sale just a couple doors down from the festival site,” said Greenwood, adding Ida’s Bakery and Super A Foods have also thrown in their support for the bursary. “All profits from the hot dog sale will benefit local students by means of the bursary, which is awarded each year.” For more information on the Autumn Equinox Arts Festival, visit the MAC website at monasheeartscouncil.com, call 778-4733029, or like The Village Gallery on Facebook.
Book showcases Okanagan artists in their studios
Morning Star Staff
When Patricia Ainslie, former curator of Calgary’s Glenbow Museum, moved to Kelowna in 2006, she knew some of the artists in the region by their international reputations. What surprised her was that some community members seemed less aware of their local artists’ fame than did the wider world. At the same time, on the national scene, people seemed not to recognize the strong concentration of artists to the place they now call home. That’s how Okanagan Artists in their Studios took shape. In the hardcover book, with copy by Ainslie and photos of the artists by Kelowna photographer Glenna Turnbull, 13 professional Canadian artists who have wellestablished careers and now live and work in the Okanagan are highlighted.
“They are artists who have made a contribution to the development of the visual arts in Canada far beyond the Okanagan, through their own work, as well as teaching, mentoring younger artists and exhibiting their work,” said Ainslie. “They have had solo exhibitions or been included in exhibitions in public galleries across Canada and internationally and may have dealers in major cities, such as Toronto, Vancouver and Calgary.” Some of those artists featured call the North Okanagan home, including Falkland’s Ann Kipling, Commonage resident Bryan Ryley and Headbones Gallery owner Julie Oakes of Vernon. Other artists highlighted include Gary Pearson, Briar Craig, Byron Johnston, Jim Kalnin and Fern Helfand, who are all professors in the creative studies department at UBC Okanagan, as well as David

Country gal is a true believer Cheryl thibideau: My Heart Still Remembers
T
oronto singer/songwriter Cheryl Thibideau is an unabashed old school country devotee. On her second album, recorded in Toronto and Nashville, she sings of dancing to an Anne Murray song. That’s something most people won’t do or admit to doing. But Thibideau is a romantic and her music is as lush as the Dean Gordon-Smith dress she wears on the disc sleeve - she also releases vinyl along with her discs. Thibideau and her co-writer/producer, Doug Romanow, have crafted a deep twanging sound that is firmly based in early ‘60s Nashville. It’s clear
Street SoundS
that the singer has an affinity for Patsy Cline – her arrangements reflect that long gone star’s classic, “aw shucks” lyric honesty. My Heart Still Remembers wisely hedges its old school pedal steel sounds with love songs. Thibideau’s voice is suited to small town vignettes and cheerful spins on clever country clichés. Her ear for sounds drenched in rhinestone and silk give way to several duets done in the call-and-response harmony style favoured decades ago. The feel of the songs is an uncanny journey 50 years back while lingering for awhile in swinging London before touching down in Tennessee (Unless You Care). Her cover of Buffy St. Marie’s Until It’s Time for You to Go is faithful and sweet, benefiting from Thibideau’s restrained rendition. The duets take the direction back to the hayride – it’s cowboy hats, boots, checkered dresses and ponytails, sort of. Thibideau’s precise phrasing style makes for cozying up to her vocal buds an easy ride. Canadian country heroes Ian Tyson and Johnny Burke supply some Northern git-down twang and all is well and easy. The only glitch in this short player is a cheesy medley of Oh Canada/This Land; the beat and steel guitars smack of karaoke at the bingo hall. Oh well, press “fast forward” on that. Otherwise, there’s much in the way of simple pleasures and early country music sounds, delivered by a true believer.
ArtWalk lists People’s Choice More than 6,000 people showed up to take in what’s considered the largest art show in the B.C. Interior as Lake Country ArtWalk 2013 took place last weekend at various locations around the community. Hundreds of artists from around the Okanagan showed off a variety of works, from live painting sessions to original art and all with live music in the background. “C ong r atu l at i ons to all of the 300 artists who offered such unique and original artworks for everyone to enjoy,” said Sharon McCoubrey, chair of the Lake Country ArtWalk committee. “We
have a tremendous asset in the Okanagan Valley when we consider such creativity. It is always fun to see the results of the People’s Choice voting, not a definitive judging of the artists, but the opinion of those who choose to cast a vote for their favourite artist.” People’s Choice votes were: 1. Greg Metz, West Kelowna; 2. Denis Weber, Kelowna; 3. Charla Maarschulk, Kelowna; 4. Alex Fong, Kelowna; 5. James Hayes, Lake Country; 6. Bonnie Roberts, Keremeos; 7. Juve Furtado, Vernon; 8. Christian Reiner, Lake Country; 9. Diane Palmer, Kelowna; 10. Megan Wise Kelowna.

Diesel film is utterly ‘Riddickulous’ Riddick
R
ichard B. Riddick (Vin Diesel) is the last of the Furyans, a warrior race from the planet Fury. A murderer and outlaw, Riddick was on the run until he discovered the Necromongers were responsible for destroying the Furyan race. Riddick challenged the Lord Marshal of the Necromongers and killed him, becoming the new Lord Marshal and leader of the Necromongers. Taylor and Howe Tiring of his role as the Lord Marshal, Riddick restarts his search for his lost home planet of Furya, only to be betrayed by his Necromongers who abandon him on yet another uninhabited, inhospitable planet. Will Riddick find a way off this desolate, dangerous planet? Will he kill a lot of living things along the way? Will he mumble all his lines? We say, “Keep your spine strong.” HOWE: If, like me, you haven’t seen either of the first two installments of this story you will probably be lost for the first 20 minutes or so. Then when you do start to understand the plot you will ask yourself, am I really that bothered about it? TAYLOR: Swollen Adam Sandler is back and grumblier than ever. I took my son Terran, who is 17, to the film. He hadn’t seen Pitch Black, The Chronicles of Riddick, or any of the Riddick cartoons, so he was unaware of even what Riddick is. So his superhuman strength, night vision eyeballs and seeming inability to die were a bit confusing. The film does flashback to elements of the story that lead to Riddick being in the predicament he currently finds himself, but understanding isn’t enough to make the plot believable, or the film enjoyable. HOWE: So if the plot/storyline wasn’t bad enough, I was hoping a little that the acting would be better. Oh, how wrong

Vin Diesel is back in black as Riddick. could I be? It was comical, the cast are so wooden you could lay them out side by side and make a raft. Where do they find these actors, if that’s what they are meant to be? TAYLOR: I agree that the acting wasn’t great, but I don’t really expect much from the likes of Diesel, nor really anyone in any Riddick movie. It’s not an Oscar contender, it’s meant to be an action-adventure science fiction popcorn flick. The problem is that it’s stupid. I don’t want to give too much away, because I’m sure that there are going to be people who like the film. Let’s just say that when it comes to plot points, the things that move the story forward, from one scene to the next, are narrowly contrived at the least and utterly ridiculous at the most. However, you can’t blame it all on terrible acting, the writing was also atrocious. HOWE: Even some of the effects were naff, I’ve seen better on TV. There was one point I chuckled to myself when what were meant to be flying motorbikes raced across the landscape. It was so bad it looked like someone knocked it together in their garage

Making a difference in Ecuador Pre-med student Dexter James mixes tourism with volunteer work in Ecuador Cara Brady Morning Star Staff
The Ecuador trip was planned to make the most of every minute for learning, exploration and work but Dexter James found time to make a few unscheduled memories. “I got up early one morning to walk on the beach and watch the fishermen putting the boats out. They rolled them on logs and there was one man who had only two young children, maybe about five years old, who weren’t strong enough so I helped him. His daughter spoke a little English and he wanted her to practise with me. He was so proud of her,” said Dexter James, 20, a third-year UBCO biochemistry student who spent May in Ecuador with a student group. “I walked back to help him with the nets and he saw I had a Coke so he poured me a drink from his bottle to thank me and offered to take me out on the boat but there wasn’t time to go. I would have loved to go and spend more time with them. What I noticed everywhere was that people wanted to learn English or have their children learn English so they could get better jobs.” Another great memory was going out to a local bar on his own to watch a soccer game and speaking a mixture of English and Spanish to well-trained oil engineers who could not get jobs with U.S. companies because their English was not good enough. The first 10 days of the trip were to get to know the country through activities like hiking and rafting and while James enjoyed these, he would have liked to spend more time

Dexter James gets to work with some of the children in Cameronas, a fishing village in Ecuador. with the local people. “I can do those things at home. I wanted to do something to make a difference, there is so much need in the rural areas” he said. In the next part of the trip, he did just that. With a group of students from Canada and the U.S. — all considering careers in medicine — he went to Cameronas, a shrimp fishing village of about 2,000 people on the coast with a mostly African population. “There is racism there, the only jobs they can get are with the fishing boats,” he said. The group, which takes three groups of students for a month each over the summer, was building 20 houses for families in the village. The new houses, for families of up to eight or 10 people, are built on strong foundations with electricity, plumbing and good roofs. “We had raised money at home so we could provide the building materials, which were bought locally. We worked with the families and each family that was going to get a
house had to have at least one member working on the houses so we got to know them. It was hard work. We bent the rebar for the foundations into squares by hand,” said James. “I felt this was making an important difference. With better housing the people will be in better health and get a better education. Some of the people were 60 years old and worked hard all their lives yet never had a house of their own. “Each house cost about $5,000 and any money left over went to the hospital to provide surgery for people in immediate need. There is public health care but there are long waiting lists.” James, who plans to start medical school next year and eventually specialize in orthopedic surgery, took a special interest in the last part of the trip which combined night classes and volunteer work in a hospital during the day. Ecuador has private and public hospitals, which he thought seemed up to Canadian standards in the buildings, equipment and

staff. He noted that it seems that people there will often not go for medical attention as soon as they should and he saw things like people working with broken bones which then had to be rebroken and reset. “We were able to do things we couldn’t do in Canada, like see surgeries, even see the equipment, all under supervision, of course,” he said. “I liked doing the check ups on children. We had a translator who was a resident and answered our questions really well. It was really eye opening and we all learned a lot. It made me rethink what I wanted to specialize in. I would like to go back next year, especially to the village and see the people, if I have the time to do it. “I would like to say thank you to all the family, friends and businesses who supported me in my fundraising, to the Vernon Soccer Association which donated soccer balls which were much appreciated — the village had one soccer ball — and to Barrita Durward.”

“I have loved you” Deut. 7:8. We should note the application of these words to spiritual Israel. How richly has Yahweh revealed his love to us! But do we respond, as have the faithful ones throughout the ages, or do we react to His goodness and grace as did Israel in the days of Malachi? Do we doubt His love? Do we fail to recognize the evidence of His love? Are we careless and slothful in our attitude toward divine worship? Otherwise the questions will be answered for us at the Judgment Seat of Christ.

D
ear Annie: My dad’s cousin, “John,” is an internist from another state. During my younger sister’s wedding weekend, Dr. John stayed with us. Two days before the wedding, my sister was stressed and couldn’t sleep. John offered her Ambien. The pill was blue and in a blister pack. He gave her two, even though the label states you shouldn’t take them unless you can get six hours of sleep. My sister absolutely didn’t Kathy Mitchell & MarcySugar have time for that. I have a prescription for Ambien, and it’s white. I have no idea what John gave my sister. At the hairdresser’s the next day, she was totally zoned out. Isn’t it wrong for physicians to dispense such medications without a prescription? There have been several incidents in the past where John has given prescription medications to my family members without seeing them. He once sent my dad expired ointments for a rash that turned out to be shingles. When my mother had pneumonia, he told her to take flu medication. He didn’t examine them, nor did he write a prescription. What do you think I should do? — Furious and Concerned Dear Furious: First of all, Ambien can come in different coloors, depending on the dosage. We assume these are sample drugs that John happens to have handy. The real issue is that your family is eager to take advantage of John’s ability to provide such medication for free and without needing to see their regular physician. They have the option

not to follow his advice or take what he offers, but they prefer the convenience. Dear Annie: You’ve printed letters about theater and concert patrons who stand up or squash you in your seat. I have a better one. I sat in the worst seat on Broadway. I understand “obstructed view.” This was NO view. I was in the front row. All I could see was a staircase and the backs of actors who were seated in chairs on stage. I was brokenhearted. I found an usher at intermission and demanded to be seated elsewhere. She told me this is what happens when you buy discount tickets at the last minute. But she took me to the last row of the theater and said, “This way you can see the terrific part with the mirror.” I gasped, “There’s a mirror?!” The second act was great, although I had to ask the people next to me to stop texting during the performance. Afterward, I found the usher and thanked her. Then I wrote the box office manager and the theater owners and asked that they please stop selling this seat. I haven’t heard back. — Don’t Stick a Broadway Baby in a Corner

Activity Horoscope By Bernice Bede OsOl
Monitor what’s going on in your personal life, but don’t make hasty decisions that could affect your personal finances in the year ahead. The experience you gain by getting involved in organizations you believe in or with people who share your concerns will pay off. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Travel plans will lift your spirits. Even if you take a short trip or sign up for an evening of fun and games, it will do much to enliven your day.
how to play: Fill-in the grid so that every row, every column and every 3x3 box contains the numbers 1 through 9 only once. Each 3x3 box is outlined with a darker line. You already have a few numbers to get you started. Remember: You must not repeat the numbers 1 through 9 in the same line, column or 3x3 box. 120105

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Emotional involvements will escalate if you don’t take care of them. Walk away from anyone who’s too demanding or not looking out for your best interest. Don’t be afraid to do your own thing. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Put some creative thought into your home and family life. Consider changes that will encourage you to be more innovative and adventurous. Personal improvements will build confidence. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Do what you can to help others, but don’t make any financial contributions. Offer suggestions, hands-on help or even a shoulder to cry on, but nothing more. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Mix business with pleasure and you will make new friends and improve your reputation. Include someone you are involved with personally, or you may face a dilemma at home. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) You’ll come up with interesting ideas, but not everyone will share your vision. Don’t invest in a scheme if it’s too ahead of its time; it’ll keep. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) If you devote some time to a physical improvement regimen, you’ll be pleased by the results. You’ll have a whole new sense of confidence, which could lead to romance. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Take on a physical challenge today. Size up an emotional situation
and defuse it before it’s too late, or prepare to walk away for good. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Put relationships and your future intentions in the spotlight, and discuss your plans with the people who count. A face-to-face encounter will help settle matters quickly. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll have some good ideas, but not everyone will be prepared to receive them. Prepare to do the legwork and clear up any weak links before presenting your plans. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Take some time to hang out with someone you find intriguing. Express your thoughts and make long-term plans that will ensure your security. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Bring about certain changes that will make you happy. You won’t please everyone, but you will at least know where you stand and how you can and should proceed. It’s a good time to begin afresh.

Dix to state future plans
VIT LS UP ROAD TO THE RBC CMA Y 10
tom fletcher
TH
Black Press
Adrian Dix is expected to announce next week whether he will continue as leader of the B.C. NDP. An official in Dix’s office said Tuesday no date or time has been set for the announcement. The NDP caucus met Wednesday for the first time since the legislature adjourned in late July, where Dix was expected to inform the party’s MLAs of his decision. Dix has faced calls from within his party to resign since the NDP lost the election to an unpopular B.C. Liberal Party coming off the repeal of the harmonized sales tax and other controversies. NDP finance critic Mike Farnworth said Tuesday he will wait for Dix’s announcement before clarifying his own leadership intentions. “But hey, I finished second last time,” Farnworth said. Energy critic John Horgan and other potential successors have also kept their intentions under wraps as the party prepares for its annual convention in November. Premier Christy Clark met Monday with B.C.’s industrial union leaders, traditional allies of the NDP, emerging with a pledge to work together on developing natural gas pipelines and export facilities. Provincial and municipal politicians are gathering in Vancouver next week for the annual Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, at which the opposition leader and premier traditionally give speeches.

Moderately Confused
Bridge by Phillip Alder MORE DISTRIBUTION READING FOR DECLARER Ajay Devgan, an Indian film actor, director and producer, said, “By getting into distribution and production, I am actually widening my base.” Many less-experienced players do not pay as much attention to hand distributions as they ought. In today’s deal, South read the end-position well by counting out the West hand. North had to open one diamond because one-notrump would have shown only 12-14 points. South was also caught by their system. Two diamonds would have been an inverted minor-suit raise, showing a stronger hand; and three diamonds would have been pre-emptive, indicating
a weaker, more distributional hand. So South compromised with one no-trump. Against three no-trump, West led the heart 10. To encourage East to continue hearts, South called for dummy’s king. As declarer hoped, East won and returned a heart, hoping his partner had the queen. South won, played a club to dummy’s ace, then ran diamonds, ending in his hand. West discarded the spade eight, three clubs and one heart. East threw one heart and one spade. When declarer next led a club and West played the 10, South was confident that West had started with 3-50-5 or 3-4-0-6 distribution. Since the former was more likely, both mathematically
and because West would have probably led a club with six of them, declarer called for dummy’s king. East’s queen dropped, and South claimed nine tricks. Yes, West should have kept two clubs, but that is easier said than done when having winners in another suit.
