Thirty-three ton lift takes place at mine

The biggest single lift for the Copper Mountain Mine is a 33 ton conveyor which will feed the largest cone crusher in western Canada. Lisa Carleton lisa@similkameenspotlight.com

Thirty-three tons of conveyor was being lifted at the Copper Mountain Mine last Wednesday. Not only is this the biggest single lift for the mine site, but this 33 tonne conveyor will feed rock to the largest cone crusher in western Canada. Operating the crane lifting the conveyor, inch by inch, slowly and with the utmost care was Grant Davies of Princeton, accompanied by a crew of two in motorized lifts and four on the ground. “This crusher will replace three portable crushers,” said Jim Mountford. He explained that the cone crusher, once completely hooked up would have the capability to crush six inch rock from the primary crusher down to approximately two inches. A 100 foot high building houses the crusher. All pieces have been delivered to the mine site and both the lower bowl assembly weighing over 100 tonnes and the upper main frame have been installed. Modifications to the existing conveyor that transfers ore from the primary crusher to the mill feed stockpile are successful in accommodating the tie-in to the new crusher. A transfer chute has been installed and is working well, allowing production See CRUSHER - Page 10

Steve Arstad/Keremeos Review

Fire departments from Keremeos, Kaleden and Osoyoos battled the flames for nearly four hours, but in spite of their efforts, the building housing three Keremeos businesses was completely gutted.

Fire claims historic Keremeos building Steve Arstad Keremeos Review

It’s all gone. The Red Bridge Pub, the Keremeos Hotel Liquor Store and the Seventh Street Diner were destroyed by fire in Keremeos on Monday morning, July 14. The Keremeos and District Volunteer Fire Department was called to the scene at approximately 8:20 a.m. “I could see a red glow inside the main front door”(of the bar) said Fire Chief Jordy Bosscha, who arrived on scene initially. He said the fire hadn’t yet breached the building at that point, but it appeared obvious to him that the inside had been involved for some time. He also checked the front door of the Seventh Street Diner,

in the same building, but found it to be cold at that time. The main body of the fire department arrived on scene within minutes, to find the fire had broken out of the building and was spreading with ferocious speed down the front of the building. Several hose lines, including the department’s engine mounted monitor was brought to bear immediately, but there was no stopping the flames that started rolling out of the front windows. The initial attack slowed the visible flames along the front of the building but did nothing to quench the inferno burning inside. Mutual aid was called immediately, with fire crews arriving from Kaleden and Osoyoos.

Energy Minister Bill Bennett, Premier Christy Clark, and BC Hydro’s Gary Hamer and Joanna Sofield demonstrate the products available in the new Energy Saving Kit in Cranbrook Thursday.

HORIZON WEST REALTY Independently Owned & Operated Office

Energy savings offered to lower-income families Black Press

BC Hydro and FortisBC are expanding their lowincome energy conservation programs to reduce the impact of rising electricity costs. One program offers free energy saving kits, including compact fluorescent light bulbs, weatherstripping, thermometers to optimize operation of the fridge and freezer and a high-efficiency shower head. The other offers free home energy evaluations to see if they home qualifies for an energy-efficient refrigerator or extra insulation. Energy Minister Bill Bennett said the government changed regulations to increase the low-income cutoff to qualify for the programs. A family of four earning up to $57,200 can now qualify, up from $44,000, a change Bennett said will almost double the number of households who are eligible. The threshold for a two-person household is $47,100. Customers of the two utilities have to apply and

provide proof of income to take advantage of the programs. Bennett said last November he would seek ways to provide extra help for lower-income customers when he unveiled a new BC Hydro rate plan. That plan will see electricity rates rise by 28 percent over the next five years, with further increases to be determined at that time. BC Hydro has other energy-saving incentives that are not income-tested, including a rebate program for installation of insulation, draftproofing, heat pumps and water heaters. Those require homeowners to pay for assessment to see if they qualify for rebates. Bennett said BC Hydro spends $160 million a year on its whole range of energy efficiency programs, including those for commercial and industrial customers. The utility has set an “aggressive” goal to meet 78 percent of its demand growth through energy conservation, reducing the need to build new generating capacity, he said.

HISTORIC LANDMARK DESTROYED - from page 1 apart what remained of the building. “We’re all devastated.” It’s the end of an era,” said Bill Irvine, who owned the building. “It was built in 1906 - just about everyone who ever lived in Keremeos, or who passed through the village can remember an experience in there.” “We put a lot into the building to make sure it was up to standards and safe,” Irvine said. Neither he nor Dierdorf could say how it might have started. Twenty employees have lost their place of employment as a result of the fire, Irvine said, noting three businesses were destroyed. He expressed a desire to rebuild and get back to business as soon as possible. “You wake up in the morning, thinking it’s going to be a normal day,” he said, “but you never know what’s going to happen.” The Keremeos Hotel was one of the village’s oldest and most historic buildings. Over the years it has been extensively renovated. Speculation swirled on the streets of Keremeos Monday afternoon as to the fire’s cause, with several residents blaming it on lightning. Around the time the fire was noticed, there were several lightning strikes in the Keremeos and Cawston area. One strike resulted in a grass fire west of Keremeos. The fire’s cause is currently under investigation.

Together they battled the flames for nearly four hours, but in spite of their efforts, the building was completely gutted. An excavator was brought in around mid-morning to take walls down and allow firefighters better access. Their progress was hampered by the shear severity of the blaze, which prevented an interior attack. Fears of collapsing walls and roofs meant firefighters had to keep back, which also limited the reach of their hose streams. By noon hour there was little remained of the historic building but a sprawling pile of rubble. Dozens of residents gathered on Seventh and on Veterans Avenue to watch the conflagration. Police cordoned off Seventh Street at Seventh Avenue as well as the back alleys south of Seventh Avenue. Power was cut to a portion of the downtown section of Keremeos at 9:17 a.m., leaving a number of downtown businesses in the dark until early afternoon. Keremeos Hotel Liquor Store manager Laurel Dierdorff wept along with other employees of the businesses as they watched their livelihood go up in flames. “A lot of sweat and hard work went into that building,” an emotional Dierdorf said Monday afternoon as she watched firefighters cool the wreckage while an excavator tore

Therapy may be mobile Guest Editorial Black Press

Today there are a growing number of apps and websites offering various forms of therapy for mental health issues. Really, since the Internet age began, it’s been simply a matter of time before we figured out how to do some mental health care online. In many ways this is in response to the way we tend to communicate now. It makes sense for established mental health organizations to reach out in these media – especially for younger clients who tend to be very comfortable communicating over their phones or computers rather than in person. The rise in online mental health services also has the potential to make this kind of care much more accessible. Most effective treatments for mental health conditions recommend an element of psychological therapy led by a highly qualified professional such as a clinical psychologist or psychiatrist. Unfortunately we have a shortage of these professionals and it is difficult for those who need health care to get it in a timely fashion. Although we need to continue training more specialists, this will not be the only solution to the problem of access to mental health services. Creating a new clinical psychologist or psychiatrist takes years and a lot of resources, we simply can’t catch up to demand. Some countries are looking into task shifting – training less qualified people to take on a specific task in therapy. Moving mental health services online will perhaps prove to be the most effective way to dramatically improve access to these services and to stretch professional expertise through program-led treatments. Therapist-free interventions have been around for a while in the form of self-help books and some have good evidence to show they can be effective. Now with smartphones and high speed Internet, these resources can be enhanced to be more interactive and greatly expanded. The development and use of these therapy apps and other online mental health resources will need to be monitored and researched more fully, studies to date do show promise – particularly in depression and anxiety disorders. One consistent finding is that these programs are most effective when there is additional external support. Ideally, this support would come from a call centre or non-specialist to ensure the intervention is still program-led. Online resources have the potential to be a very useful tool provided they are developed by professionals with a nuanced understanding of the complex issues involved in mental health. Online, program-led treatments may be useful for some issues, they will likely not replace the need for thoughtful professional care in many cases. It will be necessary to sift out the good quality programs from cheap imitations, which may not be helpful and could be damaging.

Make it through the week and be a Kokanee survivor Jamie Holloway Princeton Kokanees

Princeton Kokanee Swim Club had amazing results at the Kamloops swim meet on the weekend of July 5 and 6. Our team swam hard and did amazing. We had cheering, we had six turtles participate, we placed 9th out of 15 teams with only 17 swimmers able to gather points. We have five new club records set by; Kate Bartlett with her 200IM, Grant Nelson with his 200IM, Aiden Neilson with his 100Bk, and Nick Cimbaro with his 100BK, and Nicholas Cimbaro with his 50 freestyle in Merritt (we missed him last week) Bringing our total new club records for the 2014 season to 11 compared to last year with a total of 5 (maybe we have a new club record for the amount of club records broken this season) Coach Grant survived a 200IM, Division 4 boys 100 FR race was .4 seconds between 1st and 4th place —that’s close! We had 2 parents learn to be stroke and turn officials, we survived a rain storm, Division 3 girls placed 3rd in their relay, two turtles swam unassisted in a relay, Lacey Baird did her first legal 50BR race, and we all had fun. Swimmers of the Meet were both Aidan Neilson and Addison VanGenne. Aidan had a full complement of best times, including breaking the 30 second mark for this 50 freestyle swim, coming in at 29.95 (that is two lengths of a legal pool in under 30 seconds folks) Addison was seen help-

and pushing forward, way to go Addy! Both of you did our team proud! Swimmers of the week for the week of June 30-July 4 are; Turtles swimmer Payton Barth, who swam an entire length of the pool on her own this week. She began her length jumping into the deep end unassisted and then continued on doing her backstroke for 25m, great work Payton! Development swimmer Mitchell Yee has been bringing his A game every practice, he has been doing a fantastic job of learning his butterfly, his flip turns, and has been excelling in his dives. Way to go Mitchell! Junior/Senior swimmer Evan Bosley can dive like the best of them, for those of you who know this swimmer we are so proud, Go Evan Go! The Kokanees are on the final leg of training, with both regional and provincials sneaking up on us (where has the time gone) and to increase our amazing momentum, we are gearing up for survivor week; the purpose of this week is to completely tire out the swimmers and their muscles, then the following week (Taper Week) we do a different style of training to build the muscles to return into our Regionals meet stronger and faster than ever. Survivor week is also a ton of fun, with a surprise theme for the swimmers, daily prizes for swimmers of the day, and special surprise events during the morning and afternoon practice. Wish our swimmers luck—if you can make it through this

FAMILY FUN DAY

From Auckland, New Zealand to Princeton Traditional Music Festival

Saturday, July 19th 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at the old Overwaitea.

Lots of fun activities for the kids; BBQ & Refreshments for all. Everything is FREE!

Rika Ruebsaat Princeton Traditional Music Festival

The person coming the greatest distance to this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Traditional Music Festival is Bob Large. Bob is traveling all the way from Auckland, New Zealand to share his music with the people of Princeton. Bob was born in Durban, South Africa and grew up in KwaZulu, Natal during the apartheid years. Looking for a country that was fair and free, Bob and family emigrated to New Zealand in 1974. He is a member and past president of the Tirirangi Folk Music Club, and a member of the Maritime Crew. The Maritime Crew is a group of five singers who specialize in performing sea songs for entertainment. Bobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance at the Festival will emphasize songs in the tradition from New Zealand with occasional South African songs, sung acapella or with guitar accompaniment. The Festival is pleased to host again two groups who were new to the Festival last year -- they had so much fun that they wanted to come back Sound & Fury Morris and Sword is a dance team that has been dancing around Seattle and the rest of the west coast of North America since the waning days of last century (1999 to be specific). Morris is a type of traditional dance from England dating back hundred of years, whose origins are lost in the mists of time. Historically Morris is danced only by men, but nowadays men and women often dance together. Morris dancing is typically seen outside local pubs. When the dancing is over the dancers retire to the pub to enjoy the finest ales and ciders on tap! Morris Dance is a community-based activity. It is not a stage-oriented performance but a street performance tradition, with dancers showing up, often outside a pub, to dance close to their audience. Murphy and Middaugh are a duo that plays old-time and traditional songs about the â&#x20AC;&#x153;good old daysâ&#x20AC;? - the civil war, prohibition, the Depression, hoboes, fire and brimstone on Sundays and World War II. Orville Murphy is originally from Kentucky where he learned to tell stories from Uncle Jim and how to play Gospels and hymns on the harmonica from his grandma. When his grandma wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t listening his Aunt Virginia taught him the Blues. Jerry Middaugh is originally from Ohio with roots in Appalachian music. He plays guitar, banjo, mandolin and he also sings.

Starts with a Decorated Bike Parade at 10:00 am. Kids bring your decorated bikes and receive a gift. An Appreciation Day to the Community from:

Golden Pecan Waffles With Warm Salted Caramel Sauce and Bananas

Serves 4 to 6 Warm Salted Caramel Sauce 11/2 cups sugar 3/4 cup water 2/3 cup half-and-half 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, diced 1/2 teaspoon fleur de sel 3 ripe, but not soft, bananas, cut into 1/2-inch slices Golden Pecan Waffles 13/4 cups all-purpose flour 4 teaspoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon baking soda 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 eggs 2 cups buttermilk 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled 1 cup pecans, toasted and coarsely chopped (see tip) 1. For the Warm Salted Caramel Sauce: Combine the sugar and

water in a heavy, medium saucepan set over low heat, swirling the pan occasionally until the sugar dissolves. Raise the heat and boil, without stirring, until the mixture is syrupy and turns a rich golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and slowly stir in the half-and-half. Be very careful because the mixture will bubble vigorously. Whisk in the butter and then add the fleur de sel. (The caramel sauce can be prepared 2 days ahead; cool, cover and refrigerate. Reheat, stirring, over medium heat.) Stir in the bananas. Cover and keep warm. 2. For the Golden Pecan Waffles: Preheat a waffle iron (and if you plan to hold the waffles until serving time, preheat the oven to 200 F).

CAPRICORN: Capricorn, family activities are getting in the way of business prospects, and vice versa. You may need to make a difficult decision in the near future. AQUARIUS: Aquarius, think through the pros and cons of speaking your mind at work. Your opinions are valid, but you run the risk of alienating certain people, and that should not be taken lightly. PISCES: Approach a problem that’s been puzzling you from a different perspective, Pisces. This new way of looking at things makes all the difference. ARIES: Be honest with yourself, Aries. Sometimes change can be a good thing, so take a few days to sort through all of your options. You will be glad you did. TAURUS: Taurus, you may have to be clever to solve a particular problem this week. It will be challenging, but you are up to the task and your efforts will be their own reward. GEMINI: Gemini, spend some time thinking about what you want rather than what others want for you. You may discover significant differences between the two, but do what makes you happy. CANCER: Cancer, it may take some time to get back on your feet after a stumble, but you will get there much faster if you ask a few friends for support. You know the people who have your back. LEO: Leo, very little can disappoint you or affect your mood. Enjoy the responsibility-free week with a free spirit. This is a great time for a vacation. VIRGO: Think through all of your options before you act, Virgo. While something may seem like a good idea at first, careful thought may reveal some bumps in the road. LIBRA: Work hard to earn a promotion at work, Libra. While you may need to take on more responsibility and work longer hours, the payoff will be well worth it. SCORPIO: Scorpio, if you feel you are at a crossroads, take your time to make the best possible decision. This is a significant moment for you, and it requires focus and forethought. SAGITTARIUS: Sagittarius, supporting a family member who deserves it has you riding high this week. This support may be emotional in nature or even financial support if you can manage. FOR ENTERTAINMENT ONLY

3. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs and buttermilk. 4. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in the egg mixture, blending gently only until the ingredients are combined. Add the butter in a slow stream, continuing to blend until the butter is incorporated. Fold in the pecans. 5. Pour 1/2 cup of the batter (or more, depending on the size of your waffle iron) onto the waffle iron and, using a metal spatula or table knife, spread the batter to within 1/2 inch of the edge. Close the cover and cook approximately 3 minutes, or until crisp and

golden brown. (If your waffles aren’t crisp, even after a “ready signal” has sounded, continue to cook them, watching carefully, until crisp and golden. If not serving immediately, place the waffles in a single layer on a baking sheet in the preheated oven while you finish the remaining batter.) 6. Serve waffles topped with several spoonfuls of the Warm Caramel Sauce and bananas. Tip: To toast pecans, spread on a rimmed baking sheet and place in a preheated 350 F oven until fragrant and lightly browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Watch carefully so the nuts do not burn.
