Manager camps out for food bank A local grocer is going to extreme heights to help hunger disappear. Vernon’s Save-On-Foods manager Jim Tennant is sleeping under the stars as he camps out on top of the Village Green Centre for the second annual Rooftop Food Drive. Last year’s inaugural event was such a success that Tennant took it upon himself to make the fundraiser an annual tradition. “Last year we stayed up just over a week, I think eight days, and we raised an amazing amount (60,000 lbs) for the food bank and this year we’re looking to meet or beat last year’s totals,” said Tennant, who expects to be camped on the roof for at least a week. Accounting and advisory firm BDO has jumped on board and will have staff fundraising at Save-On-Foods today. Along with bagging groceries for tips, BDO will have a by-donation barbecue from noon to 6:30 p.m. If the staff can raise $2,000 in food and donations, BDO’s David Nardi will join Tennant on the roof tonight. Wendy’s Akbal Mund, also Vernon’s Good Citizen, is also expected to join Tennant for a camp-out Saturday evening. And David MacBain, Salvation Army community ministries director, is also spending a couple nights on the roof. The drive comes at an opportune time, as the food bank shelves could use some assistance. “We have seen 244 new households this year, to date as of the end of August,” said MacBain. On average, the food bank serves 175 to 200 households per month plus 100 to 150 individuals visiting the food bank daily. The number of people accessing the food bank is up 51 per cent from pre-recession times. The need, said MacBain, “continues throughout the year, in fact sometimes it picks up in the summertimes because of additional people in the area. “Hunger doesn’t take a holiday.” With the anticipated success of this food drive, and thanks to recent ones (such as the Thanksgiving Food Drive which raised 10,075 lbs of food), the Salvation Army can better meet the needs of those it serves. “Help our neighbours in need,” urges

The RCMP are pursuing suspects for two business thefts in Vernon. At about 3:40 a.m. Thursday, officers responded to an alarm at Nolan’s Pharmacy on 30th Ave. “Officers confirmed a forced break and enter to the building,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spiokesperson. “The target of this break and enter was prescription drugs. At the time, it is unknown exactly what was taken or quantities.” Police are working to determine if video is available to assist in the investigation. Police were then called to the True Outdoors store on Anderson Way Thursday at about 5:40 a.m. Thieves forced the front door open and once inside, they stole numerous Canada Goose Arctic Line men’s and women’s parkas in various colours. “These parkas have a distinctive logo with red maple leaves and the name in it,” said Molendyk. “These parkas start in price at $600 and up, resulting in a significant loss to the store.” Reports are that a gray sedan vehicle may be involved in this break and enter. Anyone with information about these thefts is asked to call the Vernon RCMP at 250-545-7171or Crime Stoppers at 1-800222-8477.

Breakfast gives United Way a boost richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Breakfast continues to be the most important meal of the day for North Okanagan social agencies. A total of $12,540 was collected during the Drive-Thru Breakfast at the Best Western Vernon Lodge Thursday. “The community really came through,” said Linda Yule, executive director. This year’s amount compares to $14,300 in 2012, but there was an individual donation of $3,000 last year. A steady flow of vehicles made their way through the Lodge parking lot, with lawyers from Nixon Wenger and Davidson and Company washing windshields. “I’m a professional,” said Jay Hack, a partner at Davidson and Company. “I had a job one summer cleaning windows.” Making sure vehicles got off 32nd Street and into the parking lot was the job of Carnival Cop Ron Morgan. “I love it. Anything to help the community,” he said as he waved to motorists. W.L. Seaton Secondary’s leadership class was also on scene. “Some students are marshalling traffic and others are holding signs,” said student Emily Burke. The Drive-Thru Breakfast was the kick-off to United Way’s annual fall campaign. The campaign goal is $300,000 and the funds will assist 25 local non-profit community agencies. “They are serving young families,

Karen Wheeler washes windows at the event. people with disabilities, seniors, everyone,” said Yule. Among the agencies that have benefitted previously from United Way’s support are the Whitevalley Community Resource Centre in Lumby, Vernon’s Family Resource Centre and the Enderby Family Resource Centre. Other groups include the Kindale Development Association, the Falkland

Boys and Girls Club and Vernon’s Upper Room Mission. Yule is confident the 2013 goal can be reached. “I hope the community wants kids to be ready for school and healthy, strong communities,” she said. Donations can be made at www.unitedwaynocs.com or by calling 250-5491346.

City officials bypass ministry meetings richard rolke Morning Star Staff

A major gathering of civic leaders has kept Vernon officials busy, but the agenda hasn’t included rubbing elbows with their provincial counterparts. City politicians continue to attend a variety of educational workshops and policy discussions at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention, which wraps up in Vancouver today. But while other communities are also spending time lobbying provincial cabinet ministers, the revolving door hasn’t been part of Vernon’s activities.

“It’s speeddating here.”

— Rob Sawatzky “The city did not organize any ministerial meetings,” said Mayor Rob Sawatzky. “It’s speed-dating here and there’s no evidence that quick meetings have any value. If you have an important issue, you meet separately so

people have time to concentrate.” But while ministerial lobbying isn’t occurring, Sawatzky insists there is a benefit to being at UBCM. “We are here more for the resolutions,” he said of B.C.’s municipalities and regional districts debating a variety of issues that could ultimately influence senior government. “That’s the more effective use of the process.” Among the resolutions of interest are funding for restorative justice programs, increased gaming revenue, tackling invasive mussel species and ensuring priority water infrastructure proceeds without having to go to referendum.

Cheese producers respond to e.coli outbreak martha wickett Black Press

The owners of Gort’s Gouda Cheese Farm remain devastated and exhausted after learning their farm is suspected of producing tainted cheese. On Tuesday, Interior Health and the BC Centre For Disease Control issued a public alert to avoid consuming cheese from Gort’s in Salmon Arm. One person has died and 10 others have become ill in B.C. and Alberta, all who have tested positive for the same strain of E-coli. All have consumed cheese from Gort’s. Kathy Wikkerink, who runs the popular farm with her spouse Gary Wikkerink, said their aim has always been to provide people with healthy food. “Generally with grass-fed beef or grassfed dairy, the chance with E. coli is minimal. What we do, we want people to be healthy. It has kind of back-fired on us. Why we do what we do is for health.” She said having their small dairy means milk doesn’t have to be shipped across the province, like so much is. “We have a huge following of people who insist that it’s raw. We’ve been basically going by that demand.” It is the farm’s rawmilk cheese that is suspected of containing the E. coli strain that has been isolated in 10 people who became ill as well as one person who died. “We apologize to the public that this has happened. We are not taking this lightly,” Wikkerink said, noting she feels badly for the family who has lost their loved one. She adds, however, that as far as she has been told, it has not been determined that the cheese was responsible for the death. Wikkerink says she and her husband have no idea where the issue is with the cheese. “CFIA (the Canadian

Food Inspection Agency) is playing it safe. They know there is a raw milk issue, they told us. Even our two-year old cheese, they made us pull that. They just don’t want any more illnesses.” She said CFIA inspectors arrived at their farm Friday night. “We were totally unaware there was an issue. They spent all day Saturday with us trying to get to the bottom of it; they told us already it could be a challenge to find the source,” she said. “We have just finished our busiest season of the year. Most of the cheese has been consumed. Eleven people have gotten sick, 10,000 have eaten it.” She says the farm has had no sick staff or family members and no reports from customers. “We’re suspecting it’s one cheese or one day of packaging. We suspect it’s small.” When the CFIA finishes its investigation, the Wikkerinks will begin making pasteurized cheeses, which she says would take only about a month to get to market. Still, Gort’s has products to sell currently. Wikkerink said they have three goudas that are pasteurized: light, smoked habanero and mild that are safe to consume, as is their feta. Wikkerink is hopeful the farm will hear the results of the investigation by the end of this week. “Products and swabs are being tested… I don’t want to hear that news. I do but I don’t. But we’ll need to find out.” She estimates that the raw-milk cheeses, which will be destroyed, make up at least 50 per cent of their products. Recalled cheese The Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s list of Gort’s Gouda Farm cheeses that have been recalled is as follows: Medium Gouda Cheese Quaso, de Prato; Aged Quaso de Prato; X Aged Quaso de Prato; Cumin Quaso de Prato; Greek

Blend: Onion, Paprika, Parsley, Pepper, Thyme, Oregano Quaso de Prato; Gouda Cheese

Dix resignation garners local NDP support richard rolke Morning Star Staff

L o ca l Ne w Democrats are endorsing Adrian Dix’s decision to move on. Dix announced Wednesday that he will resign as party leader by mid-2014 at the latest. “Considering the

results of the last election, the leader has to take some responsibility,” said Mark Olsen, Ve r n o n - M o n a s h e e NDP candidate in the election. Dix’s leadership has been in question since the May provincial election when the Liberals

earned another term despite polls showing the NDP were poised for victory. “Any time a leader steps down based on personal convictions, it’s a good thing,” said Steve Gunner, who ran for the NDP in the Shuswap constituency. “I believe he realized in the post-election analysis that his leadership was not necessarily what voters wanted in the last two weeks (of the campaign,” said Gunner, adding that the NDP’s election loss was a failure of campaigning and not the public’s disinterest in the party’s core values.

Gunner is pleased that Dix will remain on until mid-2014 to allow for a smooth transition. “We should get a solidly grounded leader,” he said, adding that Dix has been a positive influence. “He has pulled the party together. We are more cohesive and he brought us together as a big team.” Olsen also has praise for Dix’s time as leader since 2011. “Adrian is a very smart man and he had a good approach meeting with people,” said Olsen. “The Liberal Party made a lot of hay about a memo 15 years ago (back-dated while he was chief of staff for then-premier Glen Clark) and some dirt seems to stick.” Eric Foster, Liberal MLA for Vernon-

NDP leader Adrian Dix has announced that he will step down from the position by mid-2014 at the latest. Monashee, was not surprised by Dix’s decision to resign. “It (election) didn’t work out for them as they had hoped,” he said, adding that the NDP’s leadership

issues won’t impact the Liberals. “We are in the business of governing and we will be for the next four years.” Foster says he expects the NDP oppo-

sition will continue to monitor the government’s activities but “we will represent all British Columbians to the best of our abilities.” The next provincial election is in 2017.

Enderby officials are demanding more attention be paid to vital community services. Council members met with Stephanie Cadieux, children and family development minister, at the Union of B.C. Municipalities convention Wednesday, and the topic was the Enderby and District Community Resource Centre. “We want more funding for the resource centre,” said Coun. Raquel Knust. “It is only open two days a week and it needs to be open five days.” However, Cadieux didn’t commit to any new money but stated her ministry would see if existing funding could be used more efficiently. “It’s frustrating when you have a meeting and you are told there is no new money,” said Knust. Among the programs offered by EDCRC are Healthy Eating for Life, Mother Goose, Sunshine Seniors Call Line, community kitchens, food skills for families and seniors, emergency bus tickets,

emergency good vouchers, resource information, early childhood development and Healthiest Babies Possible. Community and civic leaders say there is a need for more resources because studies indicate that 49 per cent of kindergarten children in Enderby are vulnerable in one or more areas of development (the provincial average is 30 per cent). Statistics from 2011 show that Enderby ranks 22 out of 92 health areas in order of worst-off to bestoff in terms of the socio-economic index. Teenage pregnancy also continues to be high. While at the UBCM in Vancouver, Enderby council members have met with other provincial cabinet ministers to discuss doctor recruitment, supportive housing and the spread of invasive mussel species. They have also attended policy sessions with other B.C. politicians and attended information workshops on a variety of issues. “It’s been an unforgettable experience,” said Knust. “The networking with others and the speakers really gets you engaged.”

Bugs and drugs

he Public Health Agency of Canada states that every year, between 2,000 and 8,000 Canadians die of the flu and its complica-

tions. But it’s believed those numbers are more or less pulled from the air. There are actually no concrete numbers on the number of people who die annually from influenza. Autopsies are rarely done, and the numbers are more of a scientific guess. But the fact is, flu season is here and everyone is at risk. Actually, us westerners apparently have a jump on the flu season compared to those in the east. Due to cool temperatures and low Jennifer Smith humidity in the fall, the flu circulates up to five weeks earlier in B.C. and Alberta. I have already heard of a few North Okanagan individuals who have caught the flu virus. Considering that it takes about two weeks for the vaccine to become effective – the sooner the better. There are certain individuals who are more at risk of developing complications from a flu virus, but the reality is everyone is at risk. The problem is that those who are at increased risk can’t even protect themselves due to the increasing number of anti-vaccine individuals and groups. There are more and more online reports these days about vaccines (whether it’s a flu shot or childhood immunizations) causing long-term health consequences. While they may happen, I personally believe they are rare and like the badapple scenario, individual cases are being blown out of proportion and ruining the program for all. I’m not debunking the claims but I know that vaccines are effective for the majority of us and the risk of such rare side-effects is minimal compared to the risk of the disease or virus. Then there are concerns, and some evidence, that the flu shot doesn’t even work. Unlike some childhood vaccinations, which offer a lifetime of protection, flu shots expire annually. Even then, they do not offer complete protection. Some research suggests the shot cuts the risk of disease only by half.

The reason for that is flu viruses are constantly changing and its obviously difficult to predict what strains will come about and what cocktail will immunize against them. But since the shot isn’t guaranteed, there are always complaints from people getting the flu shot but still getting the flu. And perhaps why some people are adverse to the flu shot. I completely understand the concerns. But as any mother can relate, kids spread germs worse than wildfire. So having a school or daycare aged child means if any other child (or staff member) has the flu, your kid is almost guaranteed to bring it home. And the wildfire is sparked. Mom and dad get the flu, grandparents, aunts and uncles, cousins, friends, co-workers. You get the point. That is why it is constantly stressed that if you are sick, STAY HOME! But also consider this: your child is recovering from a bad virus or appears to have some initial symptoms but you shrug it off thinking they are fine. Meanwhile, your child shares some of their germs with another child. That child brings the virus home, and perhaps they have been vaccinated so they don’t catch the flu. But the germs brought home are spread to mom and dad (it is possible to spread a virus even if you have been immunized). So while the parents are down with the flu, grandma steps in to help out with the little one and, you guessed it, grandma gets the flu. The major concern here is that grandma has a weakened immune system from a disease –her underlying condition meant that she could not get the flu shot. She can not fight the flu as effectively as others, therefore she ends up being hospitalized. That scenario could even lead to death. For anyone with a loved one who has an underlying condition, this is a frightening reality. And it is exactly why many people get the flu shot. They just wish more people would understand the risks and do the same. If getting the flu shot is still something you are adamant against, please do your best to protect everyone else. Stay home the minute you feel sick and do not go out in public until you are better. And perhaps one of the most effective ways you can protect yourself and others is by washing your hands, and hands of your little ones.

One can understand the City of Vernon’s decision not to meet with provincial cabinet ministers while at this week’s Union of B.C. Municipalities convention in Vancouver. They come one after the other and it’s likely the ministers get overwhelmed as they face a revolving door of civic leaders from across B.C. raising concerns or demanding money. “It’s speed-dating here and there’s no evidence that quick meetings have any value,” said Rob Sawatzky, Vernon’s mayor. “If you have an important issue, you meet separately so people have time to concentrate.” Fair comment, but Sawatzky fails to mention that getting together with provincial cabinet ministers at another time comes with a price as mayors, councillors and the required staff support must travel to Victoria or Vancouver. That means flights, mileage and hotels. The benefit of getting together with ministers at UBCM is those costs are already covered as council members are at the convention for other business. On top of this, cabinet ministers are busy individuals and there is no guarantee that mayors and councillors will be able to access them at another time. Beyond the rapid-fire nature of the sessions, the provincial officials are already at UBCM and they make themselves available to their municipal and regional district counterparts. Also, the UBCM sessions allow ministers to hear from all or more of a council instead of just the mayor. A variety of opinions can help foster sound decision-making. While the city’s decision not to meet with ministers is understable, hopefully they will consider a different routine next year.

They talked us into $7.5 million for a new sports field, and now there is $50,000 to hire a project manager. And now they are going to ask for input on the design. I thought what we voted on was the plan 2. The Regional District of North Okanagan wants us to OK $111 million for water improvements. Why should we upgrade a system for this great amount when the water has been good for the past 15 or more years? Why you ask, so the agriculture hay farms can get all of the water they want and have us pay for it. It does not matter because Interior Health will just tell us we have to build it. Keep your nose out of our business. We should just not pay for or allow it and if they cut off the water, take them to court as it is our water. 3. Civic Arena has to be replaced so it

air quality I read with interest A.R. Gobbett's letter of Sept. 6, especially the section where air pollution was mentioned. Earlier this summer, I attended a public information session on Vernon’s official community plan, and spoke to several planners. I asked the question, "Does air quality play a role in the development of our OCP?" I think Mr./Ms. Gobbett already knows the answer to this. My question was met with dropped jaws, raised eyebrows, frowning foreheads and a long moment of silence. What could I possibly be talking about? After recovering from their puzzlement, the response from each planner was a definite "No. Air quality is not taken into account in our planning." And I wondered why not. Vernon has the worst air quality in B.C., and yet businesses are being encouraged by city hall and the DVA to place tables and chairs for customers on our newly-widened sidewalks. We find much of this outdoor furniture positioned, not adjacent to the entrance of a business, but as

Visualize yourself eating and sucking in the exhaust as that truck moves off, spewing its carcinogenbearing particulates in a dark grey cloud all around. I suggest that eating and drinking outdoors regularly on city streets could prove extremely harmful to our lungs.

I went through this in Calgary when they closed the 10th Street bridge for one year for repairs. Many businesses expressed concerns about lost traffic flow. In the end, most of those businesses, including mine, experienced an increase in business. The customers talked about how much easier it was to get around the neighborhood as the

drive-through traffic was not there to slow things down and it was a much nicer experience without the congestion. There are always going to be some people affected negatively by any decision that is made but that is no reason to not make a decision and just keep postponing until things are more expensive and it just has to be done. This has been done in many areas before and as a driver, I can say it never has affected my decision on if I want to stop in a town or city. If there is something I want to stop for, I simply go the old route. If businesses think that someone driving through town 100 or more times just might see their sign and stop on the 101st visit, they need to reconsider their marketing plan. brent Hauberg great sHow It's nice to see the mention of Artwalk and the recognition of Jody Lafontaine's forward-thinking start to the show.

8. Now they want to upgrade the Kin Race Track area when it was not good enough for a sports complex. Iuspect that will be $5 million.

I must not forget the recycling plant that burned down. Rebuild for $2 to $5 million or an increase for pickup as they will have to take it to Kelowna I suspect between $205 to $300 million in referendums and most of this comes from RDNO. No wonder they want Vernon to take over the recreation. If they hold any referendums from now on, the only people that should vote on it are ones that have paid their taxes up to date.

I had the great honor to work with Sharon and an amazing team of volunteers that work all year long on the event. There is not a juried art show anywhere else in the province of B.C. that compares.

for pictures with a boy and his mom, a grown man, a trio of teenage girls, a young woman and a reporter while doing an interview beside the Shuswap River in Enderby. Made famous by the popular television program, Grant currently offers his time as a public speaker – talking to 20,000 to 30,000 people annually at fundraisers, private functions, schools and public service organizations. In Enderby for such an engagement this Thursday and Friday, he takes the ongoing Mantracker association in stride. “It’s normally fun. I have to remember they are the people who got me where I am today,” he said. “To them I’m still Mantracker.” As an example, he tells the story of doing an engagement at an elementary school where the staff thought the younger students might not know him. Yet when he walked past a Grade 1 classroom, a boy spotted him, yelled, “It’s Mantracker!” and ran out of the room to meet him, taking all of his classmates with him.

Terry Grant, of Mantracker fame, is in for a public speaking engagement tonight at M.V. Beattie Elementary School and several tracking workshops. cowboy’s face. Born in southern Ontario, riding horses since the age of eight and working as a cowboy since the age of 17 – his first job as a cowboy was at the Bar U Ranch before it became a national historical site – Grant came about his tracking skills naturally. Transferring those skills from cows for a ranch to humans for television is something of a leap and it took Grant a bit of time to get the hang of it when he started the Mantracker series. “We were pretty slow

those first few shows. The cameraman doesn’t know how to track and half the time my guide didn’t either,” he said. “It was a little brutal but we got it figured out eventually.” Grant points to Newfoundland and Labrador as the province with the toughest tracking terrain due to the lack of animals to thin out the underbrush, making it too thick to navigate through much of the time. And Smithers, B.C. wins for being the worst for bugs; Grant recalls it as being “nasty.”

how to “know your land; know your prey”. “I lay down a set of tracks and they have to figure what I’ve done and where I’ve gone,” Grant explained. “We don’t go far but they learn a lot.” He said tracking is about creating a profile of your prey to understand what they will do and reading the terrain to determine what it will make the prey do. Tight with personal information, Grant will not reveal his marital status, but asked what kind of woman he prefers, he answered, “All of them.” The 55-year-old shares his story and will answer questions at M.V.

Tentative school deal reached Monring Star Staff

A tentative two-year contract has been reached between the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association and CUPE B.C., effectively halting a strike of 33,000 unionized public school staff in the province. “Our CUPE employees, which includes school district employees such as trades people, certified education assistants, bus drivers, custodians, technicians, clerks, secretaries Bobbi Johnson and other support workers, are an integral part of making our schools a great place for children to learn,” said

Bobbi Johnson, North Okanagan-Shuswap School District chairperson. The new deal provides union members a 3.5 per cent wage increase over the two years of the contract – one per cent on July 1, 2013 (retroactive), two per cent on Feb. 1, 2014, and 0.5 per cent on May 1, 2014. The deal – which would begin on July 1, 2012 – is set to expire on June 30, 2014. A wage increase will have to be found within school districts’ existing budgets. For the North Okanagan-Shuswap, that amounts to $250,000. “There is going to be hard work ahead to find the savings the government is requiring,” said Johnson.

Coldstream plans to use the system to enforce zoning, fire prevention, business, noise control, traffic and highway and snow removal bylaws.

As part of ongoing reform to the justice system, the B.C. government is increasing the number of alternative ways to resolve disputes, when appropriate, without requiring individuals to use the courts. “No one wants to spend a lot of time in court if they don’t have to,” said Eric Foster, Vernon-Monashee MLA. “That’s what’s so great about the bylaw adjudication system. It allows people who are disputing bylaw infractions to deal with them quickly and efficiently outside a court room – saving everyone involved time and money.”

Road check leads to drug arrest of powder cocaine, more than 3.6 ounces of crystal meth, $2,000 in cash and six cellular phones.” Just prior to this incident, officers during the same road check stopped a black Mazda sedan and arrested a 33-year-old Oliver man for possession of a controlled substance. A search of that vehicle led to the seizure of 1.5 pounds of marijuana and drug paraphernalia. All three men have since been released on promises to appear in court at a later date and face potential charges of possession for the purpose of trafficking.

Three Okanagan men could face drug charges after police seized significant quantities of drugs and cash from two vehicles during a road check Wednesday. Just before 1 a.m., Kelowna RCMP were conducting a road check on the William R. Bennett Bridge when officers stopped a black Ford Flex. “Further investigation led to the arrest of a 25-year-old Peachland man and a 40-year-old Vernon man,” said Cst. Kris Clark, with the RCMP. “The vehicle was searched and police seized more than 2.6 ounces

Vernon soccer coach Doug MacDonald gets ready to ride for Rwanda Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

Long-time Vernon soccer coach Doug Macdonald only jumped back on a bicycle a couple years ago. So while the thought of cycling 220 kilometres over two days may seem daunting, Macdonald sees it as a small feat compared to who it will ultimately benefit. Macdonald is one of 60 cyclists riding for Rwanda in the fourth annual Lake2Lake event this weekend. The event, put on by Canadian Christian development agency Wellspring Foundation for Education, raises funds to train teachers, build schools and transform education in Rwanda. “How hard is 220 kilometres to ride when these guys have been enduring their situation for a long, long time?” said Macdonald, who will be riding for the children. The Vernon cyclist will join the Lake2Lake riders at Dutch’s Campground in Coldstream Saturday at 9 a.m. for the start. They will travel along rural, scenic roads via Armstrong and Salmon Arm to Eagle Bay Camp on the shores of Shuswap Lake. After an overnight stay at Eagle Bay Camp, riders will begin the return trip to Vernon via Silver Creek and O’Keefe Ranch. “It’s not a race, it’s a ride,” said Jayson Ursulak, Wellspring communications director. “We are kind of a niche event in that there’s an overnight component.” While the scenery, camarade-

Vernon’s Doug Macdonald will be riding in the Lake2Lake Ride for Rwanda this weekend. rie and fun of the weekend is a bonus, most riders are touched by the cause. “We’re doing it for something bigger than who we are,” said Ursulak. “It’s about kids and changing their lives.” The event is one that has seen all ages and abilities take part, from an eight-year-old riding tandem with her dad to a 76-year-old and from local doctors to a former bus driver from Cherryville. “He kind of got hooked on cycling because of this ride,” said Ursulak of the Cherryville resident. Macdonald is among a num-

ber of North Okanagan riders taking part in this year’s event, which has also attracted participants from Whistler, Williams Lake, Penticton, the Lower Mainland and even Arizona. “We have people from all over,” said Ursulak. “We’ve had people from Ontario, Calgary, Seattle and Oregon.” While registration is now closed for the event, anyone wanting to support the cause can visit lake2lake.org to donate. There you will find Macdonald’s pledge page or you can call him at 250-545-5350. Pledges will continue to be collected after the ride.

Conversation focuses on future of economy Morning Star Staff

North Okanagan residents are being given a voice on the future of the economy. A 100 Community Conversation session will be held at Vernon’s Okanagan Regional Library Saturday from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. “Over the course of the dialogue, you will have an opportunity to share your ideas, questions and insights about B.C.’s current and future economy,” states a release from Simon Fraser University, which is organizing the event. “This discussion will be informed by your knowledge, values, and your consideration of others’ perspectives. You will learn more about the B.C.s economy, its current strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. Working with others, and drawing from your own expertise, you will have an opportunity to chart a plan for B.C.’s economic future which identifies some of the actions the province can take to create wealth, address social equity and pro-

tect the environment. SFU says you do not need to be an expert in economics to participate in the process. “We are all a part of the economy whether we are working in a paid or unpaid capacity, self-employed or working on a factory floor, studying in a college or writing software code from our home office. “The goal in launching this dialogue is to move beyond the polarization that often per-

meates our discussions about B.C.’s economy. We encourage you to come to the table with an open and curious mind – to learn and to share your wisdom and ideas with others.” The results of the 100 Community Conversations across the province will be compiled into a Citizen’s Agenda for B.C.’s Economic Future, which will provide the basis for a broader consultation process.

It will also be included during SFU’s Community Summit Oct. 4 in the Lower Mainland. For more information, e-mail khennings@orl.bc.ca or go to www.sfu.ca/publics qu are / c om mu n it y summit/2013summit. html.

Paddlers fight breast cancer Morning Star Staff

The third annual Prospera Vernon Dragon Boat Festival was another resounding success. The event attracted 600 paddlers to Kal Beach in Coldstream. “We have worked hard to create an event that benefits and connects our local community. Our partnership with Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation has been a major focus in this regard,” said Lisa George, manager of the festival, which was hosted by the Vernon Rowing and Paddling Centre. “Through a pledge drive, the event leaves a substantial legacy, purchasing critical breast cancer diagnostic equipment. This year’s festival has raised $7,500 to date, making the total raised over three years $24,000.” The Vernon Dragon Boat Festival has now joined forces with Wine, Women and Woods and the Bosom Buddies. The groups are supporting the VJHF’s Take a Picture digital mammography campaign and are working together to support the purchase of a new imaging unit. “The mammography department at VJH is currently working with film-based imaging technology, and is the last department to change over to a digital system,” said George. The new digital mammography technology will improve screening and treatment for women. “With daily fears of a system breakdown, the difficulty of getting replacement parts and the delays to patient screenings and diagnostic examinations, it is critical that we reach the $428,400 goal quickly,” said Sue Beaudry, VJHF director of development. One out of every nine women in Canada will be diagnosed with breast cancer within their lifetime. “That’s a sobering fact and one that hits close to home for many of our staff,” said Darrell Oshiro, Prospera Credit Union’s Vernon branch manager. “Through our active participation and support of the Vernon Dragon Boat Festival, we’re helping to ensure that VJH has the diagnostic tools to aid in the early detection and treatment that will ultimately result in better outcomes for women right here in our community.” Prospera Credit Union is the sponsor of the festival, and the team from the local branch was the top fundraiser after collecting $2,500. “The support given by our sponsors and supporters is incredible,” said George. “Prospera, Sun FM, Natures Fare, Silver Star, Kal Tire and the Investors Group are all working together with the event to provide a unique sporting and fund raising opportunity. We are looking forward to building and growing this event.”

Classic draws female Olympians Kevin Mitchell Sports Editor

Can’t make it to the Sochi Olympics in February to watch women’s curling? No worries. Most of the teams expected to sweep rocks in Russia will be in Vernon in a few weeks. A smorgasbord of former Olympic and world championships are among the 32 female foursomes in the $40,000 Prestige Hotels & Resorts Curling Classic, Oct. 3-6. “This is an Olympic year so this will be good practice for the ladies,” said Vernon club manager and Olympic ice-maker Dave Merklinger. “This will be their first competitive action of the season and this is the strongest women’s field we’ve ever had so fans will see some incredible curling.” Merklinger used his charm and wit to lure 2013 world champion Eve Muirhead of Scotland to the North Okanagan tripleknockout extravaganza. Muirhead, 23, curls out of the Dunkeld Curling Club based in Pitlochry. She clipped Sweden’s Margaretha Sigfridsson, the previous year’s silver medallist, 6-5 in last year’s world final in Latvia. Muirhead claimed four world junior titles before joining the women’s ranks. China fan favourite Betty Wang has a love affair with Vernon, where she lost the 2008 Ford world final to Jennifer Jones of Winnipeg. Wang, who turns 29 the day after the classic ends, surprised many by finishing the round-robin in first place at 9-2, including a win over Jones. They beat the Canadians once again in the 1-2 playoff game before dropping the gold-medal game. Wang won the first-ever medal for a Chinese or Pacific team at the worlds, for

Switzerland superstar Mirjam Ott has been here several times. The 41-year-old Bern product bagged a bronze medal at the 2008 Ford worlds in Vernon and a gold in 2012, in Lethbridge. Ott snagged silver Olympic medals in 2002 (Salt Lake City) and 2009 (Torino, Italy). Kelowna’s Kelly Scott, 36, garnered world gold in 2007 in Japan while pocketing a pair of national Scottie’s in Lethbridge (‘07) and London (‘06). Kelley Law, 47, of New Westminster has been playing the cashspiel for 20 years. Law ruled the 2000 worlds in Scotland. Russia’s

Anna Sidorova, 22, is also entered. It will be a homecoming of sorts for Regina’s Amber Holland, who struck gold in the 1992 national juniors in Vernon. Holland, 40, has won five provincial Hearts and took silver in the ‘93 world juniors in Switzerland. Also coming from Saskatchewan is 33-year-old Stefanie Lawton of Saskatoon. Lawton won her second Saskatchewan Scotties Tournament of Hearts in 2009, earning a spot at the 2009 Scotties where she made the playoffs, but lost in the 3 vs 4 game to Jones. Lawton won her second Canada Cup

in 2010, defeating Olympic silver medalist Cheryl Bernard of Calgary in the final. Bernard, 47, has won the Vernon cashspiel and has entered again along with fellow Calgarian Shannon Kleibrink, always a money maker at the Prestige Classic. Vernon will be represented by Robbi Kuhn, who made the playoffs in the provincials last year and topped the Victoria Shootout in 2012. The women’s winner collects $9,000 with the runner-up rink earning $6,500. Week passes are $30 and daily ducats sell for $10. There are 16 men’s rinks in a tripleknockout format starting Oct. 4 and ending on the Monday afternoon. Vernon’s Jim Cotter will be among the favourites, especially since adding John Morris (Johnny Mo) in the off-season. Morris played third for phenom Kevin Martin of Edmonton until April, 2013. He will skip for Cotter and throw third rocks. Defending B.C. champion Andrew Bilesky of New Westminster, Kevin Koe of Calgary, Jamie King and Blake McDonald, both of Edmonton, Team China, Team Japan and T.J. Perepolkin (three-time B.C. junior champion) and Mark Longworth, both of Vernon, are also confirmed. The men’s winner banks $7,000 with the second-place team taking $5,000. Meanwhile, the curling club is holding an open house Sunday from noon-4 p.m. “We welcome everybody, especially beginners,” said Merklinger. “All you need is a clean pair of shoes. We’ll supply the ice and brooms.” A beginners clinic goes Sept. 23-24 at the club, with Merklinger, Perepolkin and Cotter among the guest instructors. Call the club at 250-542-6713.

If it happens later on, maybe it’s different because other guys are accustomed to playing in the league. “We’re banged up, but we can empty the tank for one game. We’re looking for our guys to outwork Merritt. That’s all I’m asking for them to do.” Seb Lloyd, Jordan Masters, Brett Mennear (shorthanded), Ambrose Firkus and Detroit Red Wings’ draft David Pope scored for Rylan Ferster’s Warriors.

the score after 40 minutes. “We kind of stood around in the first period, but came back in the second,” said Williamson. “In the third, the game could have gone either way and you just have to take it and grab it. We just kind of let the other team dictate the outcome.” Vernon rookie Dallas Calvin set up Blacklock for a onetimer on a 2-on-1 5:22 into the second frame. Blacklock’s second and third goals came off tremendous solo efforts. Midway through the middle period, he crashed the West Kelowna zone on the forecheck and intercepted netminder Andy Desautels’ clearance attempt, leaving him with an empty net.

Osborne topples Mattson for Splat title Morning Star Staff

Veteran Corey Osborne of Penetanguishene, Ont. swept youthful Tanner Mattson of North Vancouver 2-0 (15-10, 15-7) in the men’s open final of the Splat Fest Racquetball Tournament Sunday at Rosters. Osborne, who is ranked ninth in Canada, stopped Keith Callender of Kamloops 2-0 (15-11, 15-7) in the quarterfinals and then dispatched former Canadian junior champion Eric Urteaga of Langley 2-0 (15-3, 15-4) in the semis. A 2005 Canadian singles champion, Osborne, 44, has made four appearances on Team Canada, and reached the podium three times, including a silver medal at the 2004 Pan American Championships in Ecuador, where he lost the final to fellow Canadian Brian Istace. Mattson, ranked No. 22 and a member of Canada’s development team, reached the championship by bouncing Troy Brooks of Sherwood Park, Alta. 2-0 15-13, 15-7) and sweeping Connor Culhane of Coquitlam 2-0 (15-11, 15-12). Doug Ross claimed the men’s A singles crown by upending Charlie McGarrity 2-0 (15-2 15-13) in the all-Vernon final. Ross grounded Bertram Johnson of Calgary 2-1 (13-15, 15-2, 11-3) in the semis after defeating Karl Light of Victoria 2-0 (15-10, 15-8) in the quarters. McGarrity downed Jim McCulloch of Victoria 2-0 (15-2, 15-11) in the quar-

ters and knocked off Chuck Tanner of Kamloops 2-0 (15-2, 15-8) in the semis. The men’s B singles title went to Steve Hendry of Victoria, a 2-1 (15-10, 2-15, 11-7) winner over Ken McCluskey of Vernon. McCluskey earned earlier 2-0 victories over Stewart Fisher of Kamloops and Alan Reakes of White Rock. In the men’s C/D singles round-robin, it was Grant Dickie of Kelowna prevailing ahead of Armstrong’s Frank Poirier. Deborah Leclair of Maple Ridge topped the women’s A/B singles round-robin ahead of Marion McBridge of St. Albert, Alta. The women’s C/D singles round-robin crown went to Chris Megli of Vernon with Karen McGarrity of Vernon runner-up. In the men’s open doubles final, Osborne and Bryan Killins of Coquitlam took out Urteaga and Jason Scott of Vancouver 2-0 (16-14, 16-14). Charlie McGarritty and Curt Broughton topped the men’s A doubles with a 2-1 (159, 7-15, 11-8) decision over McCluskey and Chuck Tanner of Kamloops. In women’s doubles, it was Lynda Howell of Saskatoon and Sue MacLeod of Dartmouth, N.S. placing first in the roundrobin ahead of Megli and McGarrity. Diana Hambley of Abbotsford and Jack McBridge of St. Albert topped the A/B mixed doubles, while Noreen Mohan of Calgary and Roger Roy of Salmon Arm ruled the C/D mixed box.

Chris Spence of the Vernon BMX Club negotiates a jump at the BMX national series last weekend in Squamish.

The Vernon BMX Club has been lapping, jumping, rolling and turning for 30 years. To celebrate the momentous milestone, the Vernon club is hosting a BMX extravaganza on Saturday (4 p.m.) at Ranger Park on 47th Avenue. The grounds will be opened up to anyone wanting to check out the club and learn more about the sport. There will be events for kids such as a bouncy castle, as well as an 80s retro BMX race at 5 p.m., plus a silent auction and a draw for a new BMX bike. There will also be a concession with hamburgers and hotdogs. BMX racing started in Vernon in 1983, in a weed-infested lot covered with broken bottles and rusting car bodies.

Anarchy hoist B.C. crown Morning Star Staff

Vernon’s Imagine Pools Anarchy are provincial co-ed D slopitch champions. The Anarchy dropped a pair of round-robin games before finding their offence and stopping the Mission Incognito 18-6 in a five-inning final Sunday in Langley. “The championship game was a great team effort both defensively and offensively,” said Anarchy veteran Taryn Robertson, who took turns at first base and catcher. Female MVP for Vernon in the final went to second baseman Courtney Bissell, while male MVP went to shortstop, outfielder Chad Gilroy. Vernon bowed 11-7 to I’d Hit That of Abbotsford before outlasting the Langley Krunch 9-8 and falling 9-4 to the Abbotsford Rhinos to open preliminary play. With one life left,

The White Rock product capped the hat trick 16 seconds after Mennear’s shorty early in the third period, going end-to-end off the ensuing faceoff. “He just went to work,” said Williamson. The Warriors (3-2) outshot Vernon 33-18 with Desautels earning the win. Danny Todoyschuk took the loss. Vernon registered just two shots in the third period. “We just weren’t desperate enough to get there,” said Williamson, who is calling for more accountability in the defensive zone. “We just need to be smarter in certain areas and take care of the puck in certain areas. Some of our dee are having to play a lot, but our forwards need to make sure they’re doing the simple details.” Williamson said rookie d-man Mark Hamilton has made the most of the void on the Viper blueline. “He gets better each and every day and he’s playing close to 30 minutes a game right now.” In other action Tuesday, veteran Scott Patterson scored three times

and Michigan rookie Devin Kero stopped 28 shots as the Centennials ambushed the Trail Smoke Eaters 5-0. Patterson, who had 11 goals last year, has four in five games for the 2-3 Cents.

The RCMP are reminding motorists to slow down and move over. In 2009, B.C.’s Motor Vehicle Act regulations were amended to include sections which deal with a driver’s responsibility when encountering official vehicles stopped on a highway with their emergency lights activated. “The purpose of this legislation was to heighten the safety of official vehicle personnel who work on our highways,” said Cpl. Dan Moskaluk, spokesperson for the RCMP’s South East District. “RCMP traffic services units have observed very little improvements in regards to motorists complying with the law over the past four years and are hopeful that with continued public education campaigns along with enforcement efforts, B.C. motorists will change their driving habits.” A driver travelling in a lane adjacent to the stopped emergency vehicle or in the same lane in which the T:5.357”

emergency vehicle is stopped must, if it is safe to do so, and unless otherwise directed by a peace officer, move his or her motor vehicle into another lane of the highway if any exist. Under the legislation, motorists are required to drive their motor vehicle at 70 kilometres per hour if the posted speed limit on the highway is 80 kilometres per hour or more, or 40 kilometres per hour if the posted speed limit on the highway is less than 80. Failing to slow down to the required speed when encountering an official vehicle, can result in a charge of excessive speed with vehicle impoundment. “It may be that a large number of motorists are not aware of the law or simply choose to ignore the law. These drivers are certainly not being mindful of the disastrous consequences of their driving habit when they fail to simply slow down and move over,” said Cpl. Bernie Parent.

News Debate pours in over allowing alcohol in grocery stores tom fletcher Black Press

The B.C. government’s consultation on liquor reform has begun with a debate about allowing alcoholic beverage sales in grocery stores. “Washington state is the model I favour,” a Lower Mainland resident wrote Monday on the B.C. government’s new consultation website. “No government involvement in retailing – period. Just enforce the legal drinking age.” The B.C. government’s point man on liquor reform, Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap, posted his own comments on the subject Monday. Yap warned that while opening up alcohol sales is a popular suggestion, “it certainly isn’t as straightforward as it may seem.” Yap noted that beer, wine and spirits are already sold in rural grocery stores that are licensed because their service area isn’t big enough to warrant a government retail store. In urban areas, he questioned whether alcoholic beverages should be sold from convenience stores and gas stations, larger grocery stores, or bigbox retailers. “When this topic comes up in my meetings with health, safety and law-and-order advocates, the question will surely become that already we see 30 per cent of late-night attendees at a typical B.C. emergency department report alcohol consumption in the six hours prior to their injury or illness,” Yap said. “If we make it more available for the sake of convenience, will we see rates like this rise?” The government is inviting public comments until Oct. 31 at the website, www.gov.bc.ca/ liquorpolicyreview. The site also lists submissions from health care, police and alcoholic beverage industry representatives. The current review continues a remake of B.C. liquor policy that began in 2002, when cold beer and wine stores were allowed to

sell spirits, and a 10-year moratorium on new private store licences was

lifted. When the consultation was launched in

August, Yap said licenses for serving craft beer or local wine at farmers’

markets would be considered. Pubs also want to

allow under-aged children in with their parents for lunch, putting

them on a level playing field with licensed restaurants.

Cities seek revenue share from province COLDSTREAM

Jeff Nagel

B.C. cities have endorsed a call for the province to share some of its revenues – not now but out in the future when hoped-for boom times arrive. That’s the centrepiece of a financial reform policy paper tabled by the leadership of the Union of B.C. Municipalities that won unanimous support Wednesday. The concept is that in years when provincial revenue from all sources is up by more than an agreed threshold – three per cent is suggested – Victoria would share a portion of the excess with municipalities. Exactly how the money would be disbursed and where it could go would be up for much more debate, if the province even agrees to the notion. So far Coralee Oakes, the minister responsible for local government, has promised nothing more than talks. But Saanich Mayor Frank Leonard, one of the architects, said the money would go into an infrastructure bank, with more of the money potentially reserved for use by cities in down years when ramped-up infrastructure spending can also help revive the economy rather than hot years with higher construction costs. Leonard said civic leaders understand that the province doesn’t want to hand over more of its existing income right now and that citizens don’t want to be hit with any new tax. He thinks the core concept will appeal to the government. “Let us be a partner in growing the economy, so much so that we benefit financially with growth in the economy,” Leonard said. “If we were in their shoes, we think we would like to hear this.” Asked if local governments should trust the province not to shuffle its accounts and discretionary dividends from Crown corporations to keep total revenue below any sharing threshold, Leonard doubted that will be a problem. “I would think if they’re having good years – three, four and five per cent growth in revenue – they’re not going to hide it, they’re going to be damn proud of it. And we want to be proud of it too.” Cities face an intensifying crunch to raise cash for major infrastructure such a water and sewer upgrades and transit expansion. The province’s property transfer tax, charged for every real estate transaction, is one of the government sources that grows with the economy that cities say give the province room to share. Saanich Coun. Paul Gerrard said the PTT brings the province $800 million to $1 billion a year. “None of that is put back into affordable housing, which I think is a disgrace,” Gerrard said. There are no permanent recurring grants guaranteed at the provincial level, unlike federal gas tax transfers that are now enshrined. Traffic fine sharing, for example, depends on provincial approval each year. Cities feel too dependent on property taxes that don’t reflect owners’ ability to pay. Premier Christy Clark has said future liquefied natural gas revenues could generate huge dividends for the province that could fund various projects. Civic leaders would prefer a systematic method for sharing any future bounty rather than one that could be sporadic or politicized.

Ruth Hoyte & Eric Foster Ruth Hoyte, Vernon’s Woman of the Year, has been teaching and performing Oriental Dance for over 30 years and is the Artistic Director and Choreographer for the Desert Moon Dancers. She was recognized by the Okanagan Arts Council for her contribution to the dance community and her passion for dance is summed up by “Focus on the Journey, not the destination. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but doing it”. She believes in the healing power of dance and in giving back to the community. Each of us can make a difference even a small act of kindness can facilitate a positive change and transform people’s lives.

Ruth is pleased to have Eric Foster as her partner, as nothing will shorten this journey of dance so pleasantly as the laughter that accompanies the learning process. This process has been a journey not a destination, in which ‘doing’ is more important than the ‘outcome’. Ruth says, “We’ve been told to dance like no one is watching, but golly everyone will be watching!!!” Serving in his second term as MLA for Vernon-Monashee, Eric Foster is the Government Caucus Whip for the Government of British Columbia. Eric was the Mayor of the Village of Lumby for four years prior to his election as MLA, Eric also served as councilor for the Village of Lumby for 12 years and as a director of the North Okanagan Regional District.

Dance season bounces in with Backhaus Thousands of red balls used in one of two contemporary dance pieces at VPAC

Kristin Froneman Morning Star Staff

One evokes a warm glow from the incandescence of light; the other is a physical feat as dancers manoeuvre and leap over and around thousands of red balls. It’s all part of the Vernon Performing Arts Centre Society’s 2013-14 dance series, which begins Sept. 28 with Southern California’s Backhausdance. The company is presenting two visually stunning contemporary dances pieces: Incandescent and The Elasticity of the Almost. The eight member ensemble is said to deliver powerful and emotionally charged choreography demonstrated through incredible athleticism, combined with breathtaking sets and costume. This will be in evidence when they present their first dance of the evening at the VPAC. Illuminated under a canopy of hundreds of light bulbs, and featuring the music of DeVotchKa, Andrew Bird, and Florence + The Machine, Incandescent features company members interacting with each other and their glowing environment as they help express the spectrum of emotions they experience on their journey “The human spirit glows when it is ignited by self-awareness, creativity and the con-

nection to others,” explained the company’s founding artistic director Jennifer Backhaus. Playing with light and shadow, the dancers test the limits of their bodies while taking viewers on an inspiring journey from dark to light, teasing their eyes with the wonderful use of what is seen — and what is not. A stunning impression awaits with the evening’s second piece, The Elasticity of the Almost, when literally thousands of red balls cover the floor. Sleek, toned dancers will negotiate their way across the stage creating lines and images for onlookers to feast upon. Encapsulating both structure and chaos, the piece explores the human ability to navigate unstable surroundings, said Backhaus. “The dancers use the progression of movement to demonstrate how we live our lives; how we manage,” she said. Recently named the Arts Organization of the Year by Orange County, Calif., Backhausdance recently returned west from touring in New York City and North Carolina. Founded 10 years ago by Backhaus, the company is already well known for using a diverse vocabulary of movement to entertain audiences through the artistry of concert dance, and this performance should be no exception. The VPAC’s dance series opens with Backhausdance Sept. 28 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $35/adult, $32/senior, $30/student, $5/eyeGO, with discounts available for members of the VPAC society, available through the Ticket Seller at 250-549-7469, www.ticketseller.ca.

Dancer returns home after five years at National Ballet School Kristin Froneman Morning Star Staff

If you’d asked Taryn Sweeney at the age of four what she wanted to be when she grew up, the answer would have come in a frilly tutu. It was back then that the now 18-year-old Vernon dancer went through the ritual of pinning her hair high upon her head in a tight bun, and wearing a snug fitting leotard with accompanying tights. She also, no doubt, learned the trick of tucking in those laces on her ballet slippers to avoid being tripped up. For years, she pliéd, jetéd and eventually pirouetted, encouraged by her longtime instructor, Margo Larose at the En Avant School of Dance in Vernon. The hard work paid off, when in Grade 7, the former Hillview Elementary School student was accepted to the summer school program at the National Ballet School (NBS) in Toronto. Sweeney’s dream of becoming a ballerina would airlift five years ago when was accepted to the year-round program at the NBS, where she studied classical ballet and contemporary along with academic courses.

Vernon’s Taryn Sweeney performs a grand jeté while a student at the National School of Ballet. “The city was amazing and the opportunities endless. I loved the school,” said Sweeney, who while in Toronto lived in an apartment on the city’s famed Jarvis Street.

The school, with its strict policies, also helped in making her the person she is today. Sweeney credits that in part to Mavis Staines, the NBS’ artistic director. “I had her as a teacher for two years. She is super artsy fartsy, but she could be terrifying,” laughed Sweeney. “I for sure now have really good discipline and awesome time management, but I also developed my technique by training professionally.” Now home upon completing her studies, Sweeney’s career ambitions have changed. She has just entered the four-year nursing program at UBC Okanagan. “I decided the professional ballet life was something I didn’t want to live,” said Sweeney. “It is a short career, and your 12-year-old self is quite different from when you are 18. It’s hard on the body and emotionally draining, so I decided to come back and my family has supported me the whole way.” However, that young girl whose ambition to become a ballerina has not left Sweeney. Instead, the young woman is paying it forward by now teaching ballet to young children at En Avant. “I have graduated to teaching while I spend another four years in school for nursing,” she said, adding, “I am happy to be home.”

According to some punk idealists, they “sold out,” but Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, Paul Simonon and Topper Headon took their sloganeering seriously: Do things your own way; follow your muse, create no matter what. As Hits Back proves, The Clash ended up promoting world music while laying on their British accents unapologetically strong and thick amidst their rocking. At its heart, the band remained close to the spirit and rhythms of early rock and roll. Along with their punk rock origin, they fused these with reggae, ska, funk and early rap. The running order of the album is like a recipe list of the group’s forays and tangents into topics and sounds. Throughout they maintain their steely pulse; the cohesive reach that

Street SoundS

Dean Gordon-Smith

they extend is a result of a band that trusts each other to create and their audience to come along. The context is deep. It opens with the rocking apocalypse of the martial beat of London Calling, the sound of future shock. Later that moves to the contrast of Guns of Brixton, Train in Vain and Bankrobber – one menacing, the other poignant, the last a murky urban ballad. It’s not a hit list, though; it is more fluid and less static. The album’s all important running order is from a set list Strummer taped to his Telecaster from a gig on July 10, 1982 in

Brixton, England. Context is king. Even now The Clash don’t bow to convention in the form of a greatest hits package. The most well known and compelling material comes from the mid-to-later period of The Clash’s career. It’s this period that captures the band at its ascent as they morph their early rock and punk sound out into the world and attract, absorb and reflect other styles with conviction. Rockabilly and reggae were a constant (Brand New Cadillac, Armagideon Time), early rap was tested (The Magnificent Seven), and global rock got popular (Rock the Casbah). There’s also weirdness here. Even amongst eccentricities like Hitsville UK, Ghetto Defendant stands out as a true oddity. Beatnik poet Allen Ginsberg raps beside Strummer as the band grooves a

reggae hook. The Call Up and Straight to Hell are two evocative songs among the rocking numbers. Strummer’s lyrics could be deceptively obscure, but his images are startling and gritty. He addresses social/political failures when Straight to Hell comes floating in like a ghost ship. Here’s a sample: “If you can play on a fiddle/How’s about a British jig and reel?/ Speaking King’s English in quotations/As railhead towns feel the steel mills rust/Water froze in the generation/ Clear as winter ice/This is your paradise.” And then it’s on to Christmas in postwar Saigon and drug drenched New York tenements. These are illuminating songs from a tough and uncompromising group of people whose brotherhood made inspiring music.

Caetanis the subject of paint-off Morning Star Staff

The Caetani Cultural Centre’s successful trio of summer art markets comes to a close with the final Viva d’Arte taking place this Saturday. The event features the competitive paint-off between renowned artists Michelle Loughery and Ryan Ryan. At 11 a.m., Loughery will paint Sveva Caetani, while Ryan will depict Caetani’s mother, Ofelia. Both Loughery and Ryan are former residents of the Caetani house, and acknowledge the impact the Caetani family has had

on the local arts community. “I feel like I know Sveva and Ofelia even though I have never met them,” said Ryan. “(It’s) almost as if our times living in the house crossed over somehow.” Loughery is passionate about the late artist Sveva and her story as it is one about the power of healing through art. “Her passion for painting was in her through all her trials in life. She painted in her mind, when she was physically restrained from doing so,” said Loughery. “I found so much strength in the place of her life. I am grateful to have

shared any of her life energy, even if it was after she was alive.” Other events taking place during Viva d’Arte include artist demonstrations, kids art activities, and the opportunity to learn about the rich Caetani history from resident actress Christine Pilgrim through her guided tours. The public is welcome to access the gardens, engage with member artists, and enjoy the facilities. Viva d’Arte runs from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Caetani Cultural Centre, 3401 Pleasant Valley Rd. Admission is free. For more info visit caetaniculturalcentre.org.

This ‘Family’ needs therapy

fter ratting out all his gangster friends, Giovanni Manzoni (Robert DeNiro) and his family must live within the confines of a witness relocation program. The problem is, they can’t behave themselves and manage to blow their cover every 90 days, needing to be relocated again by their CIA handler (Tommy Lee Jones). It’s not just the patriarch with violent tendencies, as mother Maggie (Michelle Pfeiffer), son Warren (John D’Leo) and daughter Belle (Dianna Agron) must each deal with the problems raised by everyday life in Normandy, the only way they know how. We say, “The Family is a surprisingly lighthearted movie about sociopaths.” TAYLOR: This is a strange movie. I understand it. I get it. I can even appreciate why Luc Besson directed it the way he did. It makes sense, but I still have a hard time liking it. What we have here is a comedy about unfunny business. The violence is blatant, yet treated through the eyes of the family executing it; that is to say, lightly, as a matter of day-to-day life: You go shopping, the clerk is snooty to you, so you blow up his grocery. HOWE: I found it entertaining and somewhat funny in a sick sort of way. You know what type of movie it is going to be when you have DeNiro in his mafia style role, that dark comedy that tries to outdo the last one. For example just look at Goodfellas or The Departed, they’re fantastic movies and

people living ordinary lives and in the absurdity of the community welcoming them. There are a few laughs and we want to root for these monsters. I’m just a little unwilling to get past their monsterisms. In a

way this film satirizes its audience by our willingness to laugh, yet we do. —Howe gives The Family 3.5 BBQs out of 5. — Taylor gives it 2.5 jars of peanut butter out of 5.

Taylor and Howe

yet you have the dark, twisted violence. TAYLOR: The second problem with the film is that I found the situation completely unbelievable. The Blake family (Blake is the family’s fake surname) is under constant surveillance yet manages to evade that surveillance every single day. Each member of the family conducts a wanton crime spree from

the very beginning, harassing, intimidating, beating up, destroying property and even murdering people in their very small town, without raising so much as one French eyebrow. (Not to mention the CIA.) HOWE: I thought the acting was very good, but you wouldn’t expect any different from DeNiro and Pfeiffer. But it was their two children played by D’Leo and Agron who I was very much surprised by. They played their parts perfectly and I think we will see them in even bigger roles in the near future. TAYLOR: The comedy lies in the depiction of the family at home, trying to be ordinary

Helping to connect cultures cara Brady Morning Star Staff

The Inter-Faith Connecting Project is a continuation of last year’s Inter-Faith Bridging Project which brought together representatives from different faith communities for events like the Inter-Faith Café discussion groups, visits to sacred sites, an arts day and a fashion show. “The project has enabled us to understand our faith communities better,” said Nola Dibski, coordinator of the project. “This year, we have been focusing on life transitions and those traditions in the various faith communities. We have had more Inter-Faith Cafés, an Inter-Faith baby shower and a family picnic. “This fall, we will focus on elders, death and dying, and wedding and marriage traditions, and conclude with a dramatic presentation in January.” Patricia Cardenas, from Mexico and now living in Canada, was a member of

the planning committee for the InterFaith Baby Shower held in April. “I am enjoying meeting people from different countries, cultures and faiths. It’s one of the things I really love, to learn about traditions. When a child is born, there are so many different ways to celebrate,” she said. “I learned that it doesn’t matter where you are from, what kind of faith you have, what colour are your eyes, we are all the same humans and we can always get together and celebrate. This was the first time I learned about Ramadan from the Muslims. The different traditions are so interesting.” There have been three Inter-Faith Café discussion groups, one at the Sikh Temple, another at the Japanese Cultural Centre and one during the National Aboriginal Day celebration. “All the events have been very wellreceived and people are asking us if we will make them annual events,” said Dibski. “One child at the Family Picnic asked,

‘Can you do this every July?’” The next event is a presentation by John Spotted Eagle on the importance of elders to First Nations, to be held Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon at the Vernon and District Immigrant Services office. On Oct. 5, there will be a presentation on death and dying from the Muslim perspective, at the Vernon Mosque from 2:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. There will be another Inter-Faith Café Oct. 27. in the afternoon, followed by a light supper by donation and evening panel discussion on death and dying, with leaders from local faith groups. “We want people to come out and discover so many cultures that we have here in Vernon and get involved in the community. It’s fun and you will learn and meet new friends,” said Cardenas. For more information about InterFaith Connecting Project events see www. interfaithvernon.org.

Life

Ditched for the in-laws

ear Annie: My son recently married a young woman from an affluent family. When he was first engaged, we began to see less of him. We invited him and his fiancée to dinners, vacations, etc., but were usually turned down. They do, however, spend a great deal of time with her family, so we have just backed off. My husband and Kathy Mitchell & MarcySugar I contributed almost half of the money for the wedding. We offered to help with whatever we could, but were told that our help was not needed. Her family did all of the planning. She and her mother conjured up lies to throw us off from planning our guest list, what we should wear to the wedding, etc. We hosted a beautiful rehearsal dinner, with no “thank you” or even a smile from the bride. On the day of the wedding, our daughter-in-law was embarrassingly rude to my husband and me. It wasn’t until the

annie's mailbox

Dear Annie: I have, for quite some time now, been concerned about a possible water shortage in the U.S. and around the world. I recently stayed with a friend and was amazed at how much water she wasted. She would keep the kitchen faucet turned on full blast for several minutes while working in another area. I didn’t say anything, as it was her home, but it sure hit me that we waste this precious resource. I am not perfect with my water usage, but I hardly would have let my water run when I didn’t need it. Specialists on water shortage have written articles on how soon our water supply could run out. Also, why don’t all sinks have an “instant hot” so we don’t have to run the faucet until the water warms up? I am hoping you will print this and it will save water in some households. — Concerned Water Conservator Dear Concerned: We don’t always appreciate that we have finite resources on this planet, including water. Please, folks, don’t run the faucet if you don’t need the water. Use cold when you can. Set a timer for your showers. Let’s not take our blessings for granted.

next day, when she refused to attend a family function before going on their honeymoon, that I found out she was angry with me because of what I wore. Annie, I wore the dress my son told me to wear, but he will not admit that to his wife. We have not heard from either of them since that day. I am so incredibly hurt. I treated this girl like part of the family. I can’t believe she would ruin a relationship over something so trivial. Any advice? — Mom from Montana Dear Mom: The dress is just an excuse to limit contact. It sounds as if your new daughter-in-law doesn’t want a relationship with her husband’s family, and he permits it — either because he agrees or, more likely, because he doesn’t want to upset the applecart. You need to “make nice,” even though it will be difficult. Call or e-mail your son and his wife, apologize for unintentionally selecting the wrong dress, mention something nice about the wedding and about the bride, and sign off by saying you hope to see them soon. We hope your son values his family enough to put his spine back into place.

The Holy Spirit is not the 3rd part of the Trinity. No one has the Spirit gifts today. Rom. 8:9: “ye are...in the Spirit if so be that the Spirit of God dwells in you.” Rom. 8:10: “the Spirit is life because of righteousness.” The Spirit of God, and the Spirit of Christ and the Holy Spirit are different aspects of the same thing and not entirely different concepts. We are considering things mental, not physical. The Spirit in its physical relations is the divine power that creates, fashions, and sustains all things; and will raise the dead, and subdue all things to God, but in opening men’s eyes, and turning them from ignorance to knowledge, and recording them to God’s remembrance. It is Truth believed and obeyed that is the agency employed.

The goal is a loving home for every pet Vernon & District Animal Care Society continues to focus on spaying and neutering of pets Morning Star Staff

The Vernon and District Animal Care Society was formed in 2001 and has since spayed or neutered close to 12,000 cats. The non-profit group is completely volunteerrun, with 100 per cent of funds raised going directly to spay/neuter financial assistance. As well, the society has run an emergency vet care program, but its directors have decided to discontinue this program and instead concentrate its efforts on providing financial assistance to low-income families with spaying and neutering their pets.

“We will be putting all our resources into the spay/neuter assistance program and the feral trap and release program as we feel sterilization is the best and surest way to alleviate the suffering caused by the massive overpopulation of dogs and cats,” said Reid Harvey, president of the VDACS. The society services the entire North Okanagan. It does not operate a shelter, instead its goal is to reduce the need for a shelter by reducing pet overpopulation. “Each time we prevent a birth, we prevent another cat or dog

from ending up on the streets or in an already crowded animal shelter,” said Harvey. “And each surgery brings us that much closer to the

day when every animal has a loving home. “We encourage people to be real companions to their animals, and to love and have

There will be a short time for discussion at the conclusion and an opportunity to discuss if we can continue faith stories throughout the fall at the library.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) Listen to what others are saying, but don’t act on hearsay. Follow your heart and only share something when you know what you will get in return. Privacy and consistency should be maintained. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) You need to take control of matters pertaining to the home. If you’re firm and fair, your stance will be appreciated in the long run. Quickly shifting conditions could lead to unexpected developments. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Helping others will help you get what you want, but before you decide to go that route, double-check your motives and consider possible consequences. A mistake could affect your reputation. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Put more effort into your personal life and your connections with loved ones. Invite the people most influenced by your decisions to comment and make suggestions before you make a move. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) When confronted with a restrictive situation, jump into action and counter whatever is standing in your way before it’s too late. Partnerships can be formed that will ensure your success. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) It’s a good day to get things accomplished, be they big or small. Interacting with others will help you seal a deal or come to a conclusion that will allow you to make a wise choice. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Pick and choose wisely. Avoid people who tend to exaggerate or are forever

All you need for

asking for something. You have to nurture and take care of your needs, for a change. Make positive personal improvements. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Take a look at your work relationships and look for a way to collaborate equally. Allowing others to contribute will help you avoid resentment. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You should foster change and refuse to be influenced by what someone else is doing. Branch out into an area that will allow you to use your talents to the utmost. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Explore new interests and develop ideas. Research interesting ways to present and promote what you have to offer. Love is on the rise, and socializing will invite romance. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be careful what you agree to today. It’s admirable to be accommodating, but not at the expense of missing out on an even greater opportunity that pops up. Ask, and you shall receive.

He had been raising shellﬁsh at his Research Sea Farm on Vancouver Island, simultaneously perfecting the only method worldwide of growing wild phytoplankton for use in the Aquaculture industry. Based on the wild plankton’s powerful nutritional proﬁle, upon his diagnosis he decided to consume the blend of micronutrients as an energy source he so desperately needed at the time. Every day he ingested the minute ocean plants and every day he felt stronger and experienced less pain. Finally a surgeon performed exploratory surgery. To the doctor’s surprise he was inexplicably able to deliver Mr. Harper a clean bill of health.

People are even giving it to their pets with remarkable results. In fact, Kim Iles says it’s the results she gets with animals that have convinced her of the product’s efﬁcacy. “It’s not a placebo effect when you give it to your pets. We’ve nursed sick animals back to health with UMAC-CORE. That’s how I judge if a product really works - if you can see results with animals - and we do.”

UMAC-CORE quickly gained far more attention than Harper could have imagined. “People were experiencing really positive shifts in their health,” Harper says. “Our success was consumer driven and we weren’t quite prepared for the demand. There were times when staff would offer to spend the night at the office so that we could get the Mr. Harper’s Sea Farm which grows the wild product out, and they often did!” phytoplankton offered in UMAC-CORE is also making a positive impact on the environment. “I Today UMAC-CORE is available in over 800 consider it one on the greenest companies in the health food stores across Canada, in stores world. Not only are we able to give back to human all across the United States and overseas in beings, we are also giving back to the planet.” Australia, New Zealand and Spain.

With the start of school, the B.C.s Ambulance Service (BCAS) reminds parents and caregivers that teaching your child to call 9-1-1 and to know their home address is one of the most important things you can do to help keep you and your loved ones safe. “Even very young children can learn to call 9-1-1,” said Dr. Michal Fedeles, manager, learning design for BCAS. “It’s a good idea to talk to your children about calling 9-1-1 once a year. Fall is a good time because school starts and household routines change.” Follow the three Ts to teach your children to call 9-1-1: n Talk to your children about emergencies. Speak calmly, in a reassuring manner about different kinds of emergency situations in your home, in the park or with friends. Questions are a good way to convey this -- What would you do if someone faints? n Tell children that 9-1-1 is a number to call for help when someone is in danger or not safe and that children can trust the person who answers a 9-1-1 call. n Try role playing to build their confidence; ask them when they should call 9-1-1 or to point out emergency workers in your community. Fedeles recommends starting with the basics when your child is three or four years old and revisiting the issue every year, as children become more mature and aware of their surroundings. “Children can grasp the concept of an emergency situation – whether someone is unresponsive from a fall or from fainting, if a fire starts or if someone is breaking into your home,” said Fedeles. “Of course, tailor the discussion to your child based on whether they’re preschool age or a teenager.”

The

Moderately Confused

Bridge by Phillip Alder DO NOT ASSUME A GOOD BREAK Robert Fitzgerald, a translator of ancient Greek and Latin who died in 1985, said, “The test of a given phrase should be: Is it worthy to be immortal? ‘I guess I’ll split’ is not going to be immortal.” Bridge players occasionally have to guess about a suit split. But they prefer not to need a favorable split to get home. This deal, as if you could not guess, is an example. South is in five diamonds. West starts with the spade ace and another spade. Declarer takes the trick and cashes the diamond ace, West discarding a spade. How should South continue? South was too strong to

open one no-trump, showing 15-17 points. When West leaped majestically to three spades, indicating a sevencard suit and some 6-10 high-card points, North bravely competed with four diamonds. Now South wondered about suggesting a slam, but had a lot of losers. Declarer had two aces to concede, so needed the club finesse to work. He also could not afford a second heart loser, but did not wish to rely on a 3-3 break or the 10 dropping doubleton. South played a diamond to dummy’s king and called for the 10. To keep declarer out of the dummy, East covered with his jack. South won with his queen, played a diamond to dummy’s eight, and took

the club finesse. When it won, declarer cashed the club ace and now carefully led the heart jack. East won and returned a heart, but South then led dummy’s club jack and ruffed away East’s king. Back to dummy with a heart, declarer cashed the club 10 and discarded his last heart. Nicely done!

It is with sadness that Al’s family announces his peaceful passing in Victoria, after a brief battle with pneumonia. Al was an active member of the Vernon community before moving to Victoria after he retired from teaching. He was well known for his outdoor pursuits, and his love of sport, which continued well into retirement. Al was known as a gentleman and for his quick wit. He will be remembered by his family with love, but most especially by his wife Frances. Al’s struggle with Alzheimer’s in the last years was a challenge for both of them, but Frances was always by his side. At Al’s request there will be no service. In lieu of any flowers, please consider making a donation to the Alzheimer’s Society.

Perry (Joyce Winnifred) McDonald 1922-2013

Perry (Joyce Winnif re d) McDonald of Kamloops passed away on September 13, 2013 at 91 years of age. She is survived by her children Judy (John), John (Dawn), Marty (Sharil) and Susan. Grandchildren Charla, Jayna, Dana (Stan), Adri, Kara (Rob) Jeff (Melissa), Ken (D’arci) and Keith, Step grandchildren Jason, Justin and Jake, Great grandchildren Joey, Troy, Jamie, Meghan, Colby, Zachary, Danny, Hailey, Diana, David, Josie and Jinessa and Kash, her sister Velma and her brother John (Helen). Perry was survived by numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and inlaws in England. She was predeceased by her husband Gordie, son Sam, parents, one sister and one brother. Perry was born to Jesse and Winnifred Parris on January 7, 1922 in Yeovile, Somerset England. While serving as a WRN, Perry met Gordie McDonald (RCAF) and the world tilted. Soon they married, and mom followed dad to BC, never forgetting her English family, they settled in Salmon Arm where they raised their five children. Mom devoted her life to her family rejoining the work force after the kids had left the nest. Their last few years were spent in Vernon where mom became an avid golfer and eventual ladies captain at Spall, a high light her life, and where she made special friends and had fun! Our family will treasure memories of Mac and Cheese (the family secret recipe) holiday dinners, off key carols around mom at the piano. We will miss “the look” which only mom could muster! But we know mom is again with her Gordie, and son and others pain free and peaceful and we hope hoisting a crystal glass with just a “short one” to us all. A special thanks to all the angles at the Ponderosa Lodge for the Love and Care for Perry and family- you are all remarkable. Memorial donations in Perry’s memory may be made to your favorite charity of your choice. No service by request.

Allen

It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of our husband, dad, and grandpa, Stanley Herbert Allen, on Sept.9, 2013. He passed away peacefully, in Vernon Jubilee Hospital, with his family by his side, after a battle with leukemia. Stan was born in Enderby, BC, but raised in Vernon, on Jan.20, 1946, to Bert and Bertha Allen. He was the oldest of four siblings and also the last to survive. Predeceased by both parents, his sister Mona, and brothers Gerald and Bruce. Stan will be forever missed by his wife of forty six years, Marilyn, his son Kerry (Lorraine), and daughter Kim (Carl) Vardon. He also leaves behind his precious grandchildren, Matthew, Melissa, Hayden and Paige, and sister in laws, Joan, Marney, Judy, and brother in law Ron Bradley, and his nieces and nephews. For thirty four years Stan worked at Tolko Industries in Lavington. He took great pride in his job and was well respected by all. He was very fortunate in that his work gave him the opportunity to spend ‘each day in the forest, the place he loved to be. Stan was a true outdoors man whose passion was to hunt, fish, hike, and drive the back country roads. He had been president of the Fish & Game Club for a number of years. First and foremost in Stan’s heart were his grandkids. If he wasn’t out in the wilderness, he could be found at the baseball field, the hockey rink or the dance studio standing proud watching the apples of his eyes. We love you GPa. Stanley will be sorely missed by many a hunting partner and by all who loved and knew him. Thank you to Dr. Arnold and staff for all your care and support. Thank you also to the great nurses in emergency and the 2nd floor of the Vernon Hospital.
