Speed limits to rise on Coquihalla, elsewhere

By Tim Petruk

STAFF REPORTER

tim@kamloopsthisweek.com

Speed limits are going up on some of the Southern Interior’s highways, but don’t necessarily expect the changes to cut down on driving time to the Lower Mainland as many drivers are already travelling at the increased limits.

Todd Stone, Liberal MLA for Kamloops-South Thompson and B.C.’s transportation minister, announced the changes in Kamloops on Wednesday, July 2.

Speed limits will increase immediately to 120 km/h from 110 km/h on three stretches of B.C. highways — the Coquihalla between Hope and Kamloops,

the Okanagan Connector between Aspen Grove and Peachland and the Island Highway from Parksville to south of Willis Road, Campbell River.

Stone said the changes reflect the driving habits of the vast majority of users of the highways.

“The safety of everyone who uses our highways is our No. 1 priority,” he said. “When speed limits are set appropriately, they encourage safe driving behaviour.”

Stone also announced changes to other aspects of highway safety, including updating legislation that deals with winter tires and creating new roadside signs warning of potential wildlife collisions, defining what tires are recommended for winter driving and urging slowmoving vehicles to stay out of passing lanes.

New speed limit signs go up on a portion of the Okanagan Connector.

The Coquihalla from Hope to Kamloops also goes to 120 km/h, as does Highway 19 from Parksville to Campbell River.

Toasting the best of Benz It was an exclusive gala befitting an exclusive event — the unveiling at Zimmer Autosport of the highly anticipated, all-new 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class.

Zimmer Autosport staff, customers and invited guests gathered at the Laval Crescent showroom on June 26 to feast their eyes on a most remarkable vehicle.

There, while being mesmerized by the sheer luxury that is the S-Class, the gala crowd of 60 was serenaded by the sounds of the Kamloops Big Band as it enjoyed an impeccable menu from Chapters Viewpoint restaurant and award-winning vino from Celista Estate Winery.

Along with the featured S550 4MATIC (priced at a bit more than $148,000, though entry-level models are available for less), the event showcased the accompanying beautiful roster of vehicles inside and outside the venue.

Other 2014 models on display were the 2014 CLA, Electric Smart car, E-Class, GL and G-Class.

But, the star of the show drew eyes and visions of road trips with vehicle technology that formerly existed only in the imagination.

The S550 4MATIC has at its soul a 4.7-litre twin-turbo V8 with 449 horsepower mated to a 7G-Tronic Plus seven-speed automatic transmission.

Fuel consumption (super unleaded grade only) is 12.6L/100km in the city and 7.9L/100km on the highway.

The 4Matic all-wheel system has been refined with time and is now light, efficient and transparent.

On the safety side, ABS braking

systems have allowed Mercedes’ engineers to develop an anti-skid system and a lateral stability system to prevent sliding in inclement weather.

The S550 4-MATIC also includes an emergency call system and the Pre-Safe Plus anti-collision system that stops the vehicle when there is an obstacle detected in its path.

Additional features include heated armrests, panoramic roof, active seats, and a 360-degree camera, not to mention front-seat massage functions, custom-controlled interior lighting and a scent diffuser to enhance the driving experience.

To put it in persecutive consider this take on the “eerily quiet” interior from autoguide.com: “The S550’s cabin rivals the Palace of Versailles’ Hall of Mirrors for opulence and grandeur. Unique materials and surface treatments give everything an ultra-premium look. The silvery wood trim practically glows in the dark; even the door handles feel like they’ve been crafted by a watchmaker.”

In short — this is true luxury.

It is not surprising the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class was named Luxury Car of the Year by Top Gear Magazine and Best New Prestige Car (over $75,000) by the Automobile Journalists Association of Canada.

The luxury car market is populated by many, but make no mistake, Mercedes is the brand after which all others follow — many cars are described as being “like a Mercedes,” but only a Mercedes is a Mercedes.

KOOL may offer hope for summer school

By Dale Bass

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

OHMMMMMMMMMM . . .

Dawson the grizzly bear seems to have perfected a yoga pose while relaxing at home at the B.C. Wildlife Park. July is Animal Encounteers Month at the park and it all begins this weekend, on Saturday, July 5, with a full schedule of events to let you get up close and personal with a variety of animals. It begins at 10:30 a.m. with the Snake Encounter at the Nature Exchange, followed by the Bird of Prey Flight Show at the Amphitheatre (11 a.m.), Bearded Dragon Encounter at the Nature Exchange (11:30 a.m.), Grizzly Bear Feeding at their enclosure (noon), American Alligator Encounter at the Amphitheatre (12:30 p.m.), Life After Rehab at the Bird of Prey Exhibit (1 p.m.), Bird of Prey Flight Show at the Amphitheatre (2 p.m.), Elk Feeding at their enclosure (3 p.m.) and Snake Feeding at the Snake Wall (3:30 p.m.).

Summer school may be KOOL this year in Kamloops as administrators work to find a way to help students who need the extra instruction.

Denise Harper, chairwoman of the Kamloops-Thompson board of education, said the Kamloops Open Online Learning (KOOL) school could provide an alternative now that the school district has cancelled in-class summer school due to the labour dispute between its teachers and the provincial government.

Although summer school has been declared an essential service during the strikelockout between the B.C. Teachers’ Federation and the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association, the school district said it would be impossible to offer it because administration would have to provide all educational, clerical and custodial summer-school tasks, a situation Supt. Terry Sullivan described as untenable.

Harper noted the online school is not affected by picket lines and could be the only option for students who need to take summer courses.

She said the district has no idea who those students are or how large a group they comprise because final-year assessments are “trickling in right now.”

Summer school offers compressed courses, Sullivan said, while KOOL’s distance learning are full courses designed for a student to work at their own pace. Many choose to work through the modules quickly.

Sullivan said students

who need to obtain a credit in advance of school’s return in September — if the contract impasse is resolved — would need to work through the modules at an accelerated pace.

Administration will provide teacher interaction with the student as they complete the courses.

Sullivan said parents interested in this option should contact the school, located in the former Pineridge elementary building at 1770 Springview Pl. It is open from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. and can be reached by calling 778-471-6061 or emailing kool-clerical@sd73. bc.ca.

Sullivan said operations were running normally on Wednesday, July 2, with no picket lines at most schools and support and clerical staff at their jobs. He said those employees, members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees, have been told to check every morning to see if their worksites are being picketed. If they are, CUPE staff are not going to work.

Harper said she wishes people criticizing teachers would remember they are on strike because their union has decided it is necessary.

“Teachers just want to teach,” she said.

“They want a small increase and they want to teach. Our teachers don’t want to put the system on its ear.”

Harper said the board has been told the district does not have untenable class sizes, but added she is not as sure about the composition or numbers of special-needs students in classes. Those two issues have been identified by teachers as keys to a negotiated settlement.

MORTGAGE MATTERS

COVER PAGE STORY

Truckers don’t like changes X From A1

The changes come after an exhaustive review of B.C.’s highways that started last year.

In all, 9,100 kilometres of highway were subject to review, Stone said.

Speed-limit changes will be made on 1,300 of those kilometres.

In addition to permanent speed-limit changes, Stone said high-tech variable-speed-limit zones will also be piloted on stretches of the Coquihalla, Highway 1 and Highway 99.

Those zones will have LED speedlimit signs that can be adjusted by highways officials depending on conditions.

All of the changes are expected to be complete by the end of the summer.

In northern B.C., 52 per cent of people taking part in public consultation did not support speed limit increases,

New designs for “keep right” and wildlife warning-signs are part of the update to rules of the road in B.C.

and that region will not see changes. All other regions had support, the highest in the Lower Mainland at 81 per cent.

RCMP opposed increasing speed limits on rural highways.

ICBC representatives also expressed safety concerns and will monitor areas with higher limits to determine if the severity of crashes increases.

Ministry statistics

show the number of serious crashes on provincial highways has decreased 28 per cent since 2003, from a combination of improved vehicle technology, driver education and enforcement.

Meanwhile, the B.C. Trucking Association, which opposed the changes, said its member companies had “no appetite for higher speed limits” and will

PAYING OFF YOUR MORTGAGE FASTER

likely direct their drivers to maintain their current speed policies in the name of safety and efficiency.

President Louise Yako said association members fear a higher risk of crashes between trucks and other vehicles that will now increasingly travel at faster speeds, leaving less room for large trucks to take evasive action in an emergency.

“People can make mistakes and use poor judgment,” Yako said, urging drivers to take extra care to give trucks room in light of the new limits.

A loaded tractortrailer on dry pavement takes 180 metres to come to a stop from 105 km/h compared to 107 metres at 90 km/h.

Yako said higher fuel consumption and emissions at faster speeds are also a consideration for many firms.

For many Canadian homeowners, one of their highest financial priorities is to pay off their mortgage as quickly as possible. Making extra payments in the early years can shorten the life of a mortgage — and dramatically lower the mortgage interest costs you’ll pay over the long haul. Those extra payments can be a sacrifice, so here are some tips to help motivate you: TIP #1: Start small - Round up your payments Try adding $10 or $20 extra per payment, the amount of interest you are saving will make a difference over time, and it’s relatively painless to part with.

TIP #2: Increase your payment annually to the most you can afford Most lenders will allow you to increase your monthly payment by 10%, 15% or even 20%. Increasing your payment means you won’t have to be disciplined to save up a lump sum payment, it will be added to your payment each month, and go directly against your mortgage principle. If you find the payments are too much, most lenders will allow you to reduce your payment to the original contract rate. A small fee may apply.

TIP #3: Pay a lump sum whenever possible Lump sum payments are extra payments which go directly against your mortgage principle. Now remember, your monthly payment of interest and principle was based on you making NO extra payments – so in fact, because of your payment, less interest will accrue and now more of your regular monthly payment will go toward paying down mortgage principle.

TIP #4: Invest in your mortgage for tax free savings If you prepay $1000 of your mortgage balance and your mortgage interest rate is 5%, you will save about $50 per year.

Now, because of income taxes (estimated at 35%), you actually have to earn $77 to make $50 in real after tax dollars.

An argument could be made that your $1000 payment/investment in your mortgage, actually pays a 7.7% return per year, not just 5%. Thats more than most GICs or bonds and the savings are not taxable!

TIP #5: With variable rate mortgages, keep payments the same when mortgage rates fall If the payment amount has not been a problem, try keeping it the same and pay down the principal faster.

TIP #6: Raise payments in line with increased income If your income increases, consider applying at least some of the surplus toward your mortgage. The long-term benefits of becoming mortgage free faster should be a strong motivator to make an increased mortgage payment.

Don’t waste your hard-earned money on interest!

Proposed mediator says mediation not yet option

By Dale Bass

STAFF REPORTER

dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

The new president of the KamloopsThompson teachers’ union sees the same two stumbling blocks to getting a new contract — teachers’ desire to deal with class size and composition and the government’s insistence it shouldn’t be a bargaining issue.

David Komljenovic, who took over the top sport at the KamloopsThompson Teachers’ Association (KTTA) this week, said that issue may be one of the reasons Justice Stephen F. Kelleher of the B.C. Supreme Court, who both sides agreed to as potential mediator, announced this week he doesn’t see mediation as an option at this point.

Education Minister Peter Fassbender told a press conference on Wednesday, July 2, that mediation is not possible now because the two sides remain too

far apart.

He told reporters the B.C. Teachers’ Federation (BCTF) remains outside the “affordability zone” other public-sector unions have agreed to when bargaining monetary issues.

Kelleher held meetings with both sides in recent days to determine the state of bargaining before making his announcement.

Fassbender said the BCTF has been unwilling to move on wages, although Komljenovice, who is also a member of the union’s bargaining committee, said both sides are close on wages — one per cent apart — and are within one year on a contract term agreement.

“We’re willing to go into the government zone on wages,” said Komljenovic, noting the BCTF is working from the contract language of the government bargaining agent, the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association

City of Kamloops

DAVID KOMLJENOVIC: New union president in Kamloops-Thompson.

(BCPSEA), on wages.

Fassbender said the monetary issue involves benefits, noting the BCTF language would cost $225 million.

Komljenovic said class size has not been a major issue in the local school district, praising the KamloopsThompson board of education and administration for its “good efforts” in that area, particularly at the secondary level.

He said the school district has worked

hard to address classcomposition issues and provide appropriate resources, but added it’s a challenging task for them given budgetary restraints and the amount of money taken out of the education system in 2002, when then-education minister Christy Clark ripped up teacher contracts and removed their right to bargain size and composition.

That action led to two successful court challenges by the BCTF, the most-recent ruling coming earlier this year.

The government is appealing it.

Landmark Supreme Court decision hailed TIB chief says bands’ strength of claim significantly improved

By Cam Fortems STAFF REPORTER

cam@kamloopsthisweek.com

A Supreme Court of Canada decision last week that redefines ownership of First Nations territory outside reserves will strengthen the hand of the Tk’emlups Indian Band (TIB) in everything from discussion with Kinder-Morgan to KGHM-Ajax, said the band’s chief.

Aboriginal communities across B.C. are celebrating the court ruling that redefines ownership of their traditional territory outside reserves.

In a unanimous decision, the country’s highest court rejected the B.C. government’s argument that aboriginal title should be restricted to settlement sites and other places frequently occupied by semi-nomadic aboriginal people before European contact.

In a landmark ruling with effects on land claims across the province, the Supreme Court of Canada has upheld the Tsilhqot’in Nation’s claim to aboriginal title over the Nemiah Valley west of Williams Lake, “I’m walking on Cloud Nine,” TIB Chief Shane Gottfriedson said.

“I have a swagger in my walk today.”

Gottfriedson said the TIB and other Shuswap bands are seeking revenue from corporations including CN Rail and CP Rail and from BC Hydro over rights-of-way granted, in some cases more than a century ago.

The decision also further empowers the bands as they seek potential deals with KGHM-Ajax over its proposed mine south of Aberdeen and Kinder Morgan for its proposed twinning of the Trans Mountain Pipeline.

“We’re impacted by 29 kilometres [of pipeline] through Indian Reserve No. 4, about 74 kilometres through our traditional territory,” Gottfriedson said. “You look at projects like Ajax — we do have strength of claim. It opens up a whole new ball game.”

Joe Alphonse, tribal chief of the Tsilhqot’in Nation, said the ruling is a victory in a struggle that had its roots in deadly conflict with a wave of gold seekers during the 1860s.

He said the communities need more control over resources to support more people living on reserves “We didn’t fight in this case to separate from Canada,” Alphonse said.

“We fought in this case to get recognized, to be treated as equals in a meaningful way.”

Settlement sites and others used for hunting and fishing were exhaustively studied in a 2003 B.C. court case that granted broad title, but was later overturned by the B.C. Court of Appeal.

The Tsilhqot’in case was strengthened by evidence that “prior to the assertion of sovereignty the Tsilhqot’in people repelled other people from their land

and demanded permission from outsiders who wished to pass over it,” the judges wrote.

The case began in 1983, when the B.C. government issued timber permits for the region and the Xeni Gwet’in, one of six Tsilhqot’in communities, went to court to stop the logging.

The Supreme Court’s decision to recognize aboriginal title on broad swaths of First Nations traditional territory will strengthen a now 15-year-old logging case being pressed by Interior Secwepemc and Okanagan bands, according to a lawyer and Thompson Rivers University professor.

Nicole Schabus was a participant in legal proceedings for the Tsilhqot’in Nation’s claim to aboriginal title over the Nemiah Valley west of Williams Lake.

She represented B.C. Union of Indian Chiefs, which was granted intervenor status in the case.

“It’s a quantum leap, no question,” said Schabus, who is also acting for the coali-

tion of Secwepemc and Okanagan bands in the Harper Lake logging case.

“The province has been in a state of denial.

They said you have to prove every single spot — it isn’t affordable.

That’s what we fought against.”

The unanimous ruling of the Supreme Court of Canada gives a near-veto to First Nations on everything from pipeline to forestry and mine development in this province.

Development can go ahead without First Nations consent only with compelling reasons.

In September 1999, Arthur Manuel, thenchief of Neskonlith Indian Band, summoned reporters to a forest site north of the TransCanada Highway near Chase Creek to witness First Nations fallers cut down trees in an operation not authorized by province’s forest ministry. Three bands — Neskonlith, Adams and Splatsin — co-operated in the effort to log the 7.2-hectare site.

Logging was also done by First Nations in the Okanagan in a coordinated effort.

The province refused to issue permits for the

New Gold disputes rating

By Andrea Klassen STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

The company behind the New Afton mine is disputing its ranking in a government database as one of Canada’s top emitters of fine particulates.

According to the government of Canada’s National Pollution Release Inventory, New Gold’s underground copper and gold mine, located about 10 minutes west of Kamloops, released 1,717 tonnes of PM2.5 in 2012.

by NPRI figures.

However, New Gold officials believe the mine’s number is erroneous, inflated as a result of “an overly conservative estimation� by a third-party consultant.

In a statement, New Gold said the New Afton mine uses a high-

efficiency dust-collection system on its most significant emissions source. “This control system has the effect of reducing the amount of total particulate matter by greater than 95 per cent,� the release said.

New Gold said it plans to conduct PM2.5 monitoring at the mine over the next month to determine just how much of the fine particulate it emits. “This will determine a site-specific estimation of emissions based on real data, rather than relying on industry-wide average factors,� the company said. “This monitoring data will be used to update and improve accuracy of the NPRI report.�

PM2.5 refers to particulate matter that is able to cross into the blood stream.

The pollutant is linked to heart disease, cancer and

Playing name game The Crown is appealing four sentences served by a Kamloops man they say pulled a quick one on authorities and almost got away with it.

Prosecutors allege Eric Charlie gave a false name — James Rocky Whitford — when he was arrested on four different occasions last year in Kamloops.

Twice in May, once in June and again in September, the 24-year-old was picked up by Mounties for crimes ranging from assault and possessing a dangerous weapon to theft and possessing stolen property.

Each time, Charlie claimed he was Whitford. No one caught on until a court-ordered DNA sample brought about red flags.

Under the Whitford moniker last year, Charlie served jail terms ranging from 14 to 60 days for his Kamloops crimes.

Charlie, who is not in custody, is slated to return to B.C. Supreme Court on July 28 as the Crown’s appeals proceed.

large amounts of particulate matter.

New Gold apologized for the errors in its NPRI data. “Above all, New Afton is committed to protecting air quality in Kamloops,� it said. “This is our home and we want to ensure the health and safety of our families, co-workers and neighbours.�

When Nixon and King agree, it must be a worthwhile idea

L

ATE LAST MONTH, A group of academics released a report that didn’t get a lot of media coverage.

The subject — a guaranteed income for all Canadians — isn’t new.

Humanitarian Martin Luther King Jr. spoke of it in 1967 when he called upon governments to provide one at a “level that sustains life and decent circumstances.”

Two years later, 1,200 economists, including Paul Samuelson and John Kenneth Galbraith, also called on their U.S. government to introduce a guaranteed annual income.

In 1969, then-president Richard Nixon proposed his government “build a foundation under the income of every American family with dependent children that cannot care for itself — and wherever in America that family may live.”

The Congress of the day disagreed.

It’s fascinating to think how Nixon’s legacy would be viewed today had he been successful in his quest.

American politician Daniel Moynihan wrote about it in 1973, New Zealand joined the conversation in 1987 and both the federal and Manitoba governments experimented with the idea in the 1970s.

Switzerland is expected to vote on a proposal later this year that would guarantee each of its people what, in Canada, would be $35,900 a year.

The academics behind the Basic Income Canada Network have a smaller dream, one that would see all Canadians, whether they work or not, guaranteed at least $20,000 a year.

DALE BASS Street LEVEL They know it’s not something that will come to fruition soon, particularly with the current attitude of our federal government.

But, they see the resurgence of the conversation as a way to raise awareness of what it is and why they feel it is needed and perhaps build on their base of support to take the topic off a press release and onto a greater stage, where substantive discussion is held about the pros and cons.

Some might argue we have a semblance of it through guaranteed supplements for seniors and the pervasive welfare system throughout the country, but there’s a difference between being on welfare and receiving an income — even if it’s just in how the words are viewed.

From 1974 to 1978, Dauphin, Man., was home to a pilot project to provide everyone with a guaranteed minimum income.

Dauphin is a largely agricultural community and the deal was they were to rely on their farming for their income but, if it didn’t provide enough to see the family living under the

poverty line, they’d receive additional money to get them over that threshold.

Studies showed hospital rates declined, health improved, graduation rates at the community’s high schools increased and people still sought out work — despite the fact they had a guaranteed income even if they didn’t have a job.

That last point is one the academics think will be the hard sell because there’s a belief in some parts of the country a guaranteed income leads to people sitting on their butts and waiting for cheques to come in.

The cost in Dauphin was $19 million, but that was just the outlay of money. It doesn’t factor in those savings in the emergency room or the economic impact of having more highschool graduates heading out into the working world.

Think of what something like this could accomplish.

In Kamloops, using a guideline developed by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, First Call BC and Victoria’s social-planning council, a living wage has been identified as $17.95, with the biggest expenses in shelter, child care and food.

The last homeless count in 2012 led to an estimate the city has more than 1,000 homeless.

Activists working in that field agree the first step to taking someone off the street or starting to restore their sense of self and their value comes in the shape of four walls, a floor, a roof and a door they can lock at night.

Sounds like an idea that should be getting more attention than it is. dale@kamloopsthisweek.com

New speed limits only make it official To nobody’s surprise, the provincial B.C. Liberal government has raised speed limits on various highways across B.C. How it was announced yesterday (July 2) was a bit of surprise as many media outlets (including KTW) did not received news of Transportation Minister Todd Stone’s announcement in Kamloops.

This was because of the federal government’s new anti-spam legislation, which prevented many media outlets from receiving the heads-up via email.

That hiccup will be overcome, but whether the new speeds are a good idea depends on whose opinion is being thrust forward.

Drivers who see the Coquihalla Highway as being perfectly safe for travel at 120 km/h will applaud that new speed limit (though many drivers were already travelling that fast; hence the speed-limit change).

Others, however — and this includes the RCMP, ICBC and the B.C. Truckers’ Association — either oppose the new speeds or have concerns they will lead to more carnage.

Ministry statistics show the number of serious crashes on provincial highways has decreased 28 per cent since 2003, from a combination of improved vehicle technology, driver education and enforcement.

Nevertheless, ICBC will monitor the highways with new speed limits — the Coquihalla from Kamloops to Hope is once such 120 km/h zone — to determine if the higher speeds lead to more accidents.

If much of the traffic is already cruising along at those speeds, the numbers shouldn’t change.

Re: Letter: Whoa! to Westsyde drivers:

“I’m looking for a new house in Kamloops and 100 per cent of what’s stopping me from buying in Westsyde is the road and the drivers.

“The area seems so nice, but the thought of driving that road with the maniacs who think it’s a freeway makes my stomach turn.

“Something has to be done because, obviously, people will not police themselves and drive at anywhere near the posted speed limit.”

— posted by Twelfthnight “Westsyde road is far from bad.

“Really, if you folks think Westsyde Road is bad, try living in any other major city.

“The speed limit is too low.”

— posted by Dastrekker “Was it this bad when photo radar was in effect?

“The only thing that seems to slow anyone down is when a police car is going the same way.

“Maybe we need one constantly travelling Westsyde Road just to keep the idiots under control!”

— posted by Patrick Miller

Editor: My comment is regarding the City of Kamloops water meter practices and usage.

The new meters have been installed for a while now and actual billing is coming soon.

Why are residents of Kamloops so closely metered, while the City of Kamloops is so careless with water usage?

Any person up in the early hours can drive through Kamloops and see water from sprinklers spilling out onto streets and into storm drains.

Worse yet is when it’s raining hard outside and the sprinklers are on.

I’ve contacted the mayor regarding this issue, but my inquiry fell upon deaf ears.

I received no reply at all.

With a looming election, I would think our mayor might have a little more to say regarding this issue.

If residents of this city are held to such tight restrictions, it is only proper and equitable that the city is held to the same.

At the very least, when it’s raining, can we not shut the watering system down?

SALUTING A SPECTACULAR SHOW

Editor: I would like to congratulate whoever put on the fireworks on Canada Day. It was the best show I have seen in the past 10 years.

It was a beautiful show.

Way to go, Kamloops.

Harold Watkins Kamloops

Have you talked to your Kamloops bus driver, today?

Editor: I do not have a car, so I rely on buses for transportation.

I am grateful there are buses as it beats having to walk everywhere.

I often ask bus drivers how their day is going and I get a variety of answers — good, bad and indifferent.

I recently boarded the Tranquille bus, which arrived late by several minutes, so I politely asked the driver, “What’s up with that?”

He explained there is construction happening on Lansdowne Street and implied late pickups would most likely continue until the construction is completed.

Because the driver took the time to explain this to me, I can plan my bus excursions accordingly.

I can either wait for a bus I know will probably make me late to my destination or I can take an earlier bus, which still might be late, but I will arrive on

schedule or earlier.

The driver’s explanation helped me to understand and to feel more patient, rather than feeling upset or angry.

I can now just put on my patience hat when I have to ride the bus next time.

This is what more bus riders should do.

Please be patient and understand it is not the driver’s fault.

They are already feeling stressed because they cannot meet the scheduled deadlines and they know their riders are disappointed and stressed, too.

There is not an acceptable reason for anyone to give bus drivers a hard time as they are doing the best they can under the circumstances.

If you were waiting for a friend to pick you up by car and they were 15 minutes late, would you verbally attack them?

I would hope not.

Would it not be kinder to take a second and ask what made your friend late?

Putting on your patience hat would be much more conducive to an outcome in which both of you are left with a good feeling, rather than the alternative, which leaves both of you feeling angry or upset.

If you can do it for a friend, you can do it for our bus drivers.

They are people, too.

Riders should be aware of construction on Windbreak Avenue in Brocklehurst from July to October.

Riders should also be aware new bus schedules will be coming soon with changes to previously scheduled pick-up times.

So, please plan accordingly.

As riders, we are either part of the problem or part of the solution.

My special thanks to the many drivers who, on several occasions, have taken a moment out of their day to make my ride an enjoyable one.

Survey paid for by KGHM raises questions Editor: I was contacted the other day by a survey company that wanted to speak to someone between the age of 18 and 35.

There was nobody within that age range in my home, so they settled for me, retired, but with a willingness to share my views for research.

The researcher began by saying she would be asking questions about our mayor and elected city councillors and about the Ajax mine proposal.

At first, no red flags popped up for me.

I enjoy surveys and always think of the well-known Ipsos Reid and university grad students doing third-party research for some reason (though this is an assumption on my part).

I was surprised when I was asked to rank each city councillor and the mayor (on a scale of one to five) regarding if I would vote for them if they ran in the next election.

I was also asked what I thought were important municipal election issues.

I think she were disappointed when I said the downtown revitalization since I did not really think the Ajax mine would be a municipal issue until more testing and results are available, likely well after the Nov. 15 election.

There was a small prompt, asking me “if there were any other issues?”

Ah, multiple answers allowed.

Whew. I added “the mine” since the seed had been planted.

Nice work, survey person.

She next asked what I knew about Ajax, specifically the boundary changes that were recently announced and how I knew about them.

When the survey ended, I asked who had paid for it.

The answer: Ajax KGHM International.

I should have seen that coming.

This left me to

wonder: Why try to correlate electoral/political support for our city officials to the Ajax project

now that a municipal election is coming up?

How will they use this information and

will it include future lobbying of each councillor?

Why focus the sur-

vey on 18-to-35-yearolds?

I don’t normally think to ask who pays

for surveys, but now I will ask first.

This one left me with more ques-

tions than I am sure I answered.

Crown cites ‘overwhelming evidence’ CANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — The Crown said there is “overwhelming evidence’’ to prove two men participated in the gang murders of six people as part of a dispute related the Vancouverarea drug trade.

Two of the victims were innocent bystanders who were simply in the wrong place at

the wrong time when the killings took place in Surrey on Oct. 19, 2007.

Cody Haevischer and Matthew Johnston are each charged with conspiracy and six counts of first-degree murder.

In closing arguments, Crown prosecutor Mark Levitz said Haevischer, Johnston and a man known

only as Person X were members of the Red Scorpions, a gang whose leaders had decided to kill a rival drug trafficker.

Levitz said that, as members of the gang, Haevischer and Johnston clearly had a motive to follow orders and participate in the plan.

And, he added, evidence such as surveillance video,

forensic evidence and the testimony of former gang members shows Haevischer and Johnston also had the means and opportunity to carry out the killings.

The Crown’s theory is that Haevischer, Johnston and Person X went to a highrise condo in Surrey to kill Corey Lal, but five others were also murdered to eliminate potential witnesses.

NATIONAL NEWS

Search continues for child and grandparents THE CANADIAN PRESS

CALGARY — Calgary’s police chief questions whether a reward would help the investigation into the disappearance of a fiveyear-old boy and his grandparents.

Nathan O’Brien was reported missing on Monday, June 30, when his mother went to pick him up after a sleepover at the grandparents’ home.

Alvin Likens, 66, his wife Kathy, 53, and Nathan weren’t there and an Amber Alert was issued by police.

Nathan’s father,

Rod O’Brien, has told local media the family was going to be offering a reward at a news conference scheduled with investigators for Wednesday, July 2.

But, Chief Rick Hansen said in cases like this, a reward can just cause more work for police because people could step forward with bogus tips that must be checked out.

“If you do use a reward, if there is a lot of money that is created for a reward, frequently it increases the workload because you have got all kinds of people then who step forward with

information that may not even be related to it,’’ he said.

“You have to, at that point in time, filter any and all information that you get. And, if you have a significant reward, it does add to the workload, not only for us, but for the Crown prosecutors and everybody else.’’

Hansen said if people have information about a case they will usually call the Crime Stoppers tip line.

There was an outpouring of sympathy and support for the family on Rod O’Brien’s Facebook page.

Many were offering help.

“My heart and soul goes out to the safe return of Nathan!!

Praying everything turns perfectly,’’ posted one person.

“Praying, praying, praying!’’ wrote another.

Investigators have said that, based on things they found in the grandparents’ home, they don’t believe the three left voluntarily.

An estate sale was held in the home over the weekend and there have been reports the grandparents talked about downsizing and moving to Mexico, but

police said they haven’t been able to determine whether the sale is relevant to the case.

Police have said there are no custody issues with the family — the boy’s parents are married and he is their biological son.

Police have also said they have no history with the family.

The grandparents’ vehicles are accounted for, as are those of other family members.

Ribfest returns in August Connect with Ribfest is back for its third edition this summer.

Running Aug. 8 to Aug. 10 in Riverside Park, Ribfest is a growing attraction and the Daybreak Rotary Club of Kamloopsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; biggest fundraising event of the year.

It brings about 60,000 people from across the province for a weekend of live music and rib-tasting.

The 2012 inaugural Ribfest was a resounding success, raising $40,000 for Kamloops charities.

Last year, it raised $60,000 for various youth organizations in the city.

With an ultimate

fundraising goal of $100,000, Ribfest is expected to grow again this year.

Event chairman Ryan Scorgie said the club isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expecting to reach that goal just yet, but its continued growth is a good sign the amount raised will increase every year.

Hot Nite in the City is bringing a show and shine and pancake breakfast to this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ribfest on Sunday, Aug. 10, from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

On Saturday, Aug. 9, the Kamloops Dragon Boat Club will have a dragon boat festival during Ribfest, with 10 boats and

about 200 people racing on the river.

Similar to the first two years, there will be live music from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. and beer gardens.

This year, there will be one more competitor, bringing the ribbers up to six in total.

A large kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; zone will be set up again, with bouncy castles, different booths and special entertainment for children.

Scorgie said the kid zone is free, but donations to the Rotary Club are encouraged so it can bring money back into the community.

the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s culture

For those looking to explore the cultural side of Kamloops, the city boasts a breadth of experiences to be had.

Kamloops has a rich cultural heritage that ranges from art to theatre to First Nations history.

Here is a look at what the city has to offer:

Kamloops Symphony Orchestra

Some say there is nothing like experiencing live orchestral music â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and Kamloops can provide that experience.

From September to May, the KSO offers live music by composers from around the world and in a range of styles.

Performances are held at the 710-seat Sagebrush Theatre, 1300 Ninth Ave., and the Pavilion Theatre, 1025 Lorne St.

Secwepemc Museum and Heritage Park

In order to experience the cultural history of the First Nations people of this area, a visit to the Secwepemc Museum and Heritage Park is in order.

The museum exhibits incorporate the oral history and legends of the Secwepemc people, along with historical photographs, illustrations and artifacts.

Also on display are birch canoes, a summer mat lodge and exhibits on hunting, fishing, clothing, games, food gathering and cooking.

Heritage Park is located on the banks of the South Thompson River on a 12-acre property and is a complement to the museum.

A one-kilometre stretch of trail leads visitors through the remains of a 2,000-yearold Shuswap winter village site, four reconstructed winter pit houses and a summer village.

The village features a tule mat lodge, hunting lean-to, fish drying rack, fish trap, smoke house and traditional plant foods.

The Ethnobotanical Gardens

The Secwepemc Ethnobotanical Gardens are located in Heritage Park and

are divided into five zones, each representing a different ecosystem found within the Secwepemc territory.

Interpretive signs located at each garden describe the ecosystem in which the plants grow naturally.

Location: 311-355 Yellowhead Hwy.

Kamloops Museum and Archives

With three floors of permanent and changing exhibits, visitors can discover the history of this Wild West town.

Exhibits here include: The local Secwepemc nation, early fur traders, the Gold Rush and gold seekers, cattle ranchers, paddlewheelers and railway construction, the coming of permanent settlers and the making of a frontier town.

Tours include informal or formal guided museum tours.

Also featured is the Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Museum, the first of its kind in B.C. The museum also offers a self-guided walking tour, while bicycle tours and cemetery tours are available.

Experience all that downtown Kamloops has to offer It’s all about the experience. The Kamloops Central Business Improvement Association’s (KCBIA) Festival of Experiences is about finding everything downtown Kamloops has to offer any day of the year.

This summer it’s focusing on public-space programming and encouraging downtown businesses to bring themselves outside by doing live demonstrations, hosting classes and bringing any number of interactive activities to the streets of the downtown core.

“You can come downtown any day in Kamloops and have a great experience because, downtown, the unique thing about it is there’s always random stuff going on,” said KCBIA general manager Gay Pooler.

“You could have a flash mob or someone doing yoga in the park or just sitting on a patio and watching the people go by, enjoying the sun.”

For those seeking music, there are myriad places to regularly hear some of the best local performers, as well as those travelling through the city, including the Blue Grotto, Commodore Grand Cafe and Lounge, Turner’s Music Studio, the Art We Are, Plaza Heritage Hotel, Cactus Jack’s Saloon and others.

The Smorgasbord Deli and Caffe Motivo also have performers at various times throughout the year.

Looking for art?

Downtown is bookended by two major art venues — Kamloops Art Gallery at the east end and the Old Courthouse Cultural Centre at the west end.

There’s also Hampton Gallery on Fourth Avenue, with a different featured artist monthly and there is a continuous display or works for sale and exhibitions at Art We Are on Victoria Street.

Even Instinct Adornment uses its walls for the extension gallery of the Kamloops Arts Council.

During the summer, the streets themselves become an entertainment venue as the KCBIA hosts various events.

The Merchants Market, running July 23 to July 26, will turn Victoria Street into arts central, with dancers, musicians and theatrical groups performing, plus blocks and blocks of sidewalk sales.

Pooler calls it one of the biggest events of the year and the best shopping days of the summer.

The Merchants Market features the most requested downtown event, the Taste of Downtown, on July 24.

With the purchase of a $10 “passport” patrons can visit many downtown eateries for featured samples.

And, in July and August, musicians from the area also take the streetside stage to perform for Live at Lunch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays.

Dreamcycle Museum has over 100 motorcycles ycles ades on display, many marques and covers decades of motorcycle history.

COMMUNITY Darrell MacPhail and Matt Hein complete their How We Met interview with the requisite ‘selfie,” using KTW’s barnstorming iPad.

Courting friendship

BY JESSICA WALLACE • STAFF REPORTER JESSICA@KAMLOOPSTHISWEEK.COM

Darrell MacPhail, 29, and Matt Hein, 27, are smoking cigarettes on the second-floor veranda of the Kamloops Law Courts.

Darrell needed a smoke.

He is stressed while there supporting his fiancée.

“I’m here to help him because he’s my homey,” Matt says.

They met a month ago in downtown Kamloops, near the old Henry Leland House on Fifth Avenue and St. Paul Street.

Matt’s girlfriend knew Darrell and introduced

T E M E W HOW

them to each other.

“I see him around and smoke a joint,” Darrell says.

Darrell is from New Jersey and has been in town about seven years. He enjoyed biking, earning the nickname “Dare” on the BMX track, before hurting his knee.

The nickname stuck.

“Dare me to do anything,” he says.

The drug scene has seen them both mixed up with the law, each having each done time at Kamloops Regional Correctional Centre.

Darrell’s criminal record includes theft and drug possession; Matt has been convicted of assault, threats and possession/use of stolen credit card.

Matt got out of jail just months before the two met.

Darrell has never seen Matt with a full set of teeth because of a what Matt calls a prison “sucker punch.”

Prison is also where Matt gave himself the latest of his 26 tattoos.

“It hurts, but I like it.”

Darrell has three tattoos of his own — professionally done — one for each of his kids.

He’ll add a couple more soon because his fiancée recently had a miscarriage — twins.

Neither of them is working now, but both say they’re working to get clean.

“I know I brought the wrong hat,” Darrell says with a laugh about his black baseball cap that spells out “DOPE” in bold red letters.

They say they’re both sober, but someone who knows them overhears the conversation and chimes in about them wearing sunglasses on an overcast day.

Darrell says he needs to call the Phoenix Centre.

“The drugs and stuff is not where it’s at.”

Welcome to How We Met, KTW’s series that introduces you, the reader, to your neighbours as they tell the tale of their relationship.

Matters of the heart — AED support grows

By Adam Williams STAFF REPORTER

HEN Jeannie Duncan collapsed on the seventh hole of the Vernon Golf and Country Club on May 16, it was an automated external defibrillator (AED) that saved her life.

Duncan was fortunate — playing behind

her were a pair of anesthesiologists and two registered nurses.

The group administered CPR for nearly 15 minutes until paramedics arrived on scene with the AED. Two shocks from the device restarted Duncan’s heart and the Vernon club approved the purchase of a defibrillator barely two weeks later.

Defibrillators have

KAMLOOPS

become more prevalent in recent years, with sports, community and recreation facilities targeted by federal, provincial and local governments as areas where their presence is imperative.

In Kamloops in 2008, the city installed 22 units in pools, arenas and large facilities, including the Tournament Capital Centre.

Costco, Aberdeen Mall and London Drugs are among private enterprises to have AEDs. “The city decided, with council support in 2008, that we wanted to launch a corporate, city-wide, public-access defibrillation program and work toward becoming a cardiac-safe society,” City of Kamloops AED co-ordinator Heidi

$

Ogilvie said.

“That’s kind of our goal, is that we want to spread the word and the support of AEDs in facilities, so that anywhere you go, you can kind of count on it.”

Since their installation, the Tournament Capital’s defibrillators have been deployed five times — nearly once a year.

The first use came at the Kamloops Curling

Club about a week after the city bought the devices — and a life was saved.

An incident at Falcon Lanes Bowling in 2011 yielded a similar result — a woman lost consciousness and was saved by some quick thinking and an AED. “It’s pretty awesome to see the return, right?” Ogilvie said.

“One life saved made it

all worthwhile.”

According to the Heart and Stroke Foundation, more than 45,000 Canadians suffer from sudden cardiac arrest each year. Of those suffering heart attacks outside hospitals, less than five per cent survive because of delays in recognizing the emergency and accessing needed care, like AEDs. X See OGILVIE A19

Blazers add two European D-men at CHL Import Draft Out with Edson, in with Patrik.

In the wake of Swiss import defenceman Edson Harlacher’s departure, the Kamloops Blazers selected D-man Patrik Maier of Slovakia sixth overall at the CHL Import Draft on Wednesday, July 2.

The Blazers picked twice at the draft, selecting 1995-born defenceman Michael Fora of Switzerland 66th overall.

Maier, a 1996-born blue liner, played last season with Team Slovakia, recording one goal and nine points, along with 172 penalty minutes, in 38 games.

The 5-foot-9, 190pound rearguard played for his country at the under-18 world championships in Finland in the spring. He notched one goal in five games.

Maier, who turns 18 on Nov. 6, is eligible for the 2015 NHL Draft.

Harlacher, 18, a topfour defenceman with Kamloops last season, opted not to return to the Blazers, instead deciding to return to Europe.

TOURNAMENT CAPITAL SPORTS

Fora racked up nine points in 38 games last season with under-20 Ambri-Piotta.

The 6-foot-2, 198pound defenceman was the team’s captain and is represented by agent Hnat Domenichelli, who starred with the Blazers from 1992 to 1996.

Fora turns 19 on Oct. 31.

Both players are expected to join the Blazers for training camp in mid-August.

National success

Athletes who train at the National Throws Centre in Kamloops under coach Anatoliy Bondarchuk were in fine form at the Canadian Track and Field Championships, which wrapped up in Moncton on Sunday, June 29.

Tim Nedow won gold in men’s shot put with a throw of 20.60 metres and Taryn Suttie claimed silver in wom-

en’s shot put, tossing 16.48m.

In men’s hammer throw, Adam Keenan

won silver with a throw of 68.49 m, while Trey Henderson picked up bronze with a toss of

67.28 m.

Meanwhile, American Kibwe Johnson, who also

trains in Kamloops, won gold in men’s hammer throw at the U.S Outdoor Track and

Field Championships in Sacramento.

He threw 74.16 metres.

BARTON INSURANCE BROKERS & CONSULTANTS

HUB International Barton Insurance is happy to be supporting the YMCA-YWCA’s Camp Deka.

HUB International Barton Insurance has built a presence in Kamloops since 1999, with four offices in Kamloops and over 60 employees. The company began in Prince George in 1948 and now has more than 900 employees working in over 60 branches throughout Western Canada. It proudly serves the needs of over 250,000 British Columbians.

Rob Robertson , Vice President Operations, Interior Shuswap Region, said the general insurance brokerage is working hard to become their clients trusted insurance provider. Covering auto, home and business insurance needs, HUB International Barton Insurance helps clients make informed decisions about the coverage they might need. Robertson said their brokers enjoy spending time with their clients to ensure clients fully understand the coverage they currently have and educate them on coverage options available to them.

When they aren’t helping Kamloopsians protect their assets, the team at HUB is supporting the community.

They are the title sponsor for several fundraising ventures throughout the community, including the annual Nancy Greene Festival. They also do fundraising for different charities and organizations around Kamloops.

This year the team chose to support the B.C. Wildlife Park. A program called HUB Gives encourages employees to do volunteer work for a local charity of their choice on company time. Just one more way HUB supports the people it serves.

The company says “Community, it’s who we are,” and is happy to live up to that motto by supporting the YMCA-YWCA’s Camp Deka.

Ogilvie: Makes sense to have AED on site TAKE X From A17

The foundation cites a 2010 article from the Journal of the American College of Cardiology, which found the use of an AED with CPR in the first three minutes of cardiac arrest can increase an individual’s chance of survival by up to 75 per cent.

What’s more, for every minute a person goes without defibrillation, their survival rate decreases by between seven and 10 per cent.

Vernon’s incident illustrates the use of AEDs beyond city facilities, to areas including golf courses.

In the Kamloops area, five of 11 courses

have AEDs on site. Two courses have devices nearby.

The Kamloops Golf and Country Club, Sun Rivers Golf Resort, The Dunes at Kamloops, Rivershore Golf Links and The Golf Course at Sun Peaks Resort all have AEDs on the course.

Talking Rock Golf Course in Chase doesn’t, but the volunteer fire department down the road does, and the same can be said for Tobiano Golf Course.

Eaglepoint Golf Resort, Pineridge Golf Course, McArthur Island Golf Course and Mount Paul Golf

Course are among golf courses that don’t have AEDs. Spokespeople for all four courses said they may address that situation down the road.

“We didn’t really think about it until they started going into the hockey arenas and all that, and everywhere you go into a public area, they have them,” Eaglepoint pro Brett Martin said.

He said the resort has recently discussed getting an AED since Eaglepoint is in Barnhartvale and some distance from emergency medical care.

What it comes down to now, he said, is

researching the devices to find a fit.

Martin is also unsure if there is funding that might be available to the course.

“Of course, if you use it once, it’s paid for itself, right?” Martin noted. “Because it has saved a life.”

Sun Rivers Golf Resort was the only course KTW spoke with that has had to use its device — that came in August 2013 during the B.C. Seniors Games.

The Vancouver Island woman in cardiac arrest ultimately died, and the device indicated to responders no shock was required, but the AED was

there if needed.

“We’re trying to encourage everyone to get them and, where we don’t necessarily own and operate the facilities, like some of the golf courses, we can’t really,” Ogilvie said.

“There isn’t any legislation that says they have to.

“When I hear that a golf course doesn’t have one, I think, oh, guys, you should get one. It’s a small, little device, a little bit of money put into it, that could have a huge return.”

According to St. John Ambulance, the average AED costs between $1,600

and $1,800.

Ogilvie said there’s no need for organizations to be concerned about causing harm with the devices as the system walks users through AED use stepby-step and will only shock when necessary.

There aren’t liability issues, either, as anyone applying a public AED is protected by the province’s Good Samaritan Act. “It should be stated that it’s important, it’s an important life-saving device,” Ogilvie said.

“If you have people congregating in your facility or your business, then you should consider getting one.”

It is with great sadness the family that announces the passing of Antonio Rogliano.

Tony passed away peacefully on Saturday, June 28, 2014 at the age of 83, with his family by his side.

Loving husband, father and grandfather, he will be forever missed.

He leaves behind his devoted wife of 50 years, Frances; his daughters Maria Rosa (David) Mulligan, Linda (Tim) Hutton, Angela (Keegan) Kinney; and his seven grandchildren Eric and Kevin Mulligan, Jodi and Kyle Hutton, Landon, Dane and Emerson Kinney. He is survived by his brothers-in-law, Luigi Bozzo and Tony D`Amore and sisters-in-law Mira and Iva Rogliano and Josephine Laskodi. He was an uncle and great uncle and will also be lovingly remembered by his numerous nieces and nephews in Canada, Italy and the United States.

Tony was the last surviving member of his family and is now happily reunited with his parents, Eugenio and Maria Rosa Rogliano and his brothers and sisters Salvatore, Marietta, Assunta, Saveria, Agatina, Elvira, Emilio, Terasina, Angelina and Vittorio.

Tony was born on June 3, 1931, in Aprigliano, Cosenza, Italy. Born into a large family, the 10th of 11 children, he was fortunate to receive an education and earned his Accounting and Business Diploma in the city of Cosenza. He immigrated to Canada in 1954 at the age of 23, landing first in Ontario

Upon retirement, Gerry moved to Kamloops with his wife, Olga Zuk. Gerry was a member of the Sons of Norway Heimdal Lodge #141 for the past 17 years and a member of the Royal Canadian Legion for the past 67 years.

He was employed as an accountant for the Village of North Kamloops in May 1959 and remained with the City of Kamloops until his retirement in December 1995, after 36 years of service. Tony met Frances in Dearborn, Michigan and they were married in December 1963. They settled in Kamloops where they raised their three daughters.

Family was the most important part of Tony’s life and he worked hard to care and provide for them.

He enjoyed nothing more than spending time with his family and sharing his knowledge and Italian traditions with his children and grandchildren. His grandchildren especially brought much joy and always a smile to his face. His passion for gardening was apparent through the countless hours he spent tending to his vegetable garden and fruit trees. Tony was a charming, intelligent and generous man.

Psalm 23

[A psalm by David.]

The Good Shepherd You, LORD, are my shepherd.

I will never be in need.

You let me rest in fields of green grass.

You lead me to streams of peaceful water, and you refresh my life.

You are true to your name, and you lead me along the right paths.

I may walk through valleys as dark as death, but I won’t be afraid.

You are with me, and your shepherd’s rod makes me feel safe.

You treat me to a feast, while my enemies watch.

You honor me as your guest, and you fill my cup until it overflows.

Your kindness and love will always be with me each day of my life, and I will live forever in your house, LORD.

There’s an angel on your shoulder Though you may not know she’s there, She watches over you day and night And keeps you in her care.

There’s an angel on your shoulder Watching you learn and grow Keeping you safe from danger And nurturing your soul.

She’ll be there through your triumphs She’ll dance on clouds with pride, She’ll hold your hand through disappointments and fears, Standing faithfully by your side.

In her lifetime this angel was strong and true, And stood up for what was right.

In your life you’ll be faced with decisions and trials And she’ll shine down her guiding light.

Life holds so much in store for you, So remember as you grow older, There are no heights you cannot reach ‘Cause there’s an angel on your shoulder.

FAITH

Considering our women of the night

D

RIVE DOWN Tranquille Avenue at night, and you will see a solitary woman standing on the sidewalk.

There are different ones and, sometimes, there are a couple spaced out over two blocks.

I’ve seen them in mini-skirts in -20 C weather.

They aren’t waiting for buses. They’re waiting for johns.

The personal ads for “escorts” in most newspapers are the ones who aren’t on the sidewalks, but still plying the world’s oldest profession.

Margaret Atwood famously wrote, “Fallen women are women who have fallen onto men, and hurt themselves.”

I think that is generally true. Seriously, who would pick this as a profession?

CHRIS KEMPLING You Gotta Have FAITH It is the act of the desperate, the addicted, those who see no other way, and, most disturbing, those coerced into the trade by sordid souls who make a living out of other people’s misery.

We all know what’s going on as we drive down this city street, but there hasn’t been much talk recently about the situation.

Do we judge them, pity them, scorn them, want to move them completely out of sight?

It’s a sad situation and I don’t really have

an answer.

Prostitutes play a bigger role than you might imagine in the stories of the Bible.

Tamar was a woman married to one of the sons of Judah (the ancestor of Jesus).

Tamar’s husband, Er, “was evil in the sight of the Lord, so the Lord took his life.”

In the ancient traditions of the Middle East, the brother-inlaw of a widow was expected to take her in and provide her with children, who would be regarded as the legal heirs of the dead brother.

Er’s brother, Onan, does not like this idea and “spills his seed on the ground.”

The Lord took his life as well (and provides the rationale for the biblical injunction against masturbation, archaically called “onanism”).

Tamar asks Judah to assign the youngest brother, Shelah, to do the duty Onan failed to do. Judah agrees, but later reneges on his promise.

So, Tamar disguises herself as a prostitute on the side of the road and waits for Judah to come along.

He spots Tamar and, not having the required fee (a goat), he gives her his ring and his staff as a pledge.

When he returns later with the goat, Tamar is nowhere to be found.

Three months later, Tamar is pregnant and Judah orders her execution by burning for the crime of “harlotry.”

Tamar says, “I am with child by the man to whom these things belong,” presenting the staff and signet ring of Judah.

Judah acknowledges his guilt, saying, “She is more righteous than

I, as I did not give her to my son Shelah.”

The child of this union was Perez, the ancestor of Jesus.

Another famous harlot was Rahab.

Joshua and the Israelites had just completed the destruction of the Amorite peoples east of the Jordan River and were poised to cross into the promised land.

But, the fortified city of Jericho stood in their way, so Joshua sends two spies to reconnoitre the city.

The two spies spend the night in a brothel/ inn owned by Rahab.

She hides the spies up on the roof when soldiers come looking for them, in return for sparing her family when the city falls to the Israelites.

Joshua destroys Jericho and slaughters everybody except Rahab and her family.

Rahab later marries one of the spies, Salmon, and gives birth to Boaz, the great-grandfather of King David.

Rahab is mentioned twice as an exemplar of faith in the books of Hebrews and James.

In the book of Luke, Jesus has been invited to dinner by Simon, a prominent Pharisee (who were renowned for their self-righteousness and legalism).

An unnamed woman, the town prostitute, apparently, crashes the dinner party.

She sits weeping at Jesus’ feet and anoints them with an expensive vial of perfume.

Then she unloosens her hair (something no respectable woman would do) and uses it to dry Jesus’ feet from her tears.

It is quite an intimate act and highly

scandalous — allowing a known sinner to touch him made Jesus ritually unclean.

But, Jesus uses this scenario to teach Simon an important lesson: Those who have sinned much have much to repent of and, when they do, it is a time for mercy.

Jesus says to her, “Your sins are forgiven . . . your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

It is easy to look down on those who are so obviously engaged in a lifestyle of sin.

Yet, remember what you were like before you were redeemed?

Or how about the secret thoughts and acts that taint your walk with God even now?

God can do more with a repentant sinner, even a prostitute, than a self-righteous hypocrite.

I love the mix of flavours in Luci Vieira’s Chicken Pineapple Kabobs.

This is an easy recipe you can fix ahead of time.

Then, slide on the skewers for a quick meal after work or a great entree for your next cookout.

You may want to double the recipe — these will be gone before you know it.

In a shallow glass dish, mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, ginger and garlic powder.

Stir the chicken pieces or shrimp and pineapple into the marinade until well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least two hours.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grate. Thread chicken or shrimp and pineapple alternately onto skewers.

Grill 15 to 20 minutes or until chicken juices run clear. Grill only three minutes if using shrimp.

Turn chicken occasionally and baste with barbecue sauce.

I love this time of year. With summer here, the selection of fresh produce at the Kamloops Farmers’ Market is increasing each week.

I look forward to Saturday mornings, strolling the market with my husband and son, coming home with an armload of goodies freshly pulled from the earth.

A recent trip to the market inspired me to dedicate an article to cauliflower.

Despite its bland colour, cauliflower does not disappoint when it comes to nutrition.

It is a great source of vitamin C, which is has an

important role in our immune system.

It is also a good source of folate, a vitamin that is essential for making new cells and is necessary before and during pregnancy. As well, it is a good source of fibre and antioxidants and is low in fat and calories.

It is also versatile and has become popular in many dishes.

have seen cauliflower as the star ingredient in all kinds of recipes, even hummus and pizza crust.

My favourite way to eat it is oven-roasted along with other veggies — potatoes, yams, carrots and/or onions. Toss the vegetables in olive oil and sprinkle with your choice of seasoning (I like curry powder, fresh garlic and a sprinkle of sea salt).

Roasted cauliflower can also be served on its own as a side dish, added to pasta dishes or pureed into soups.

Looking to lighten things up? Try cauliflower as a substitute for potatoes.

Cauliflower puree makes a surprisingly good, lower-calorie alternative to mashed potatoes. Or replace potatoes with steamed cauliflower in your favourite potato-salad recipe.

Interested in trying a new spin on an old favourite? Try this cauliflower puree that some call mock mashed potatoes.

Kamloops Art Gallery curator Charo Neville collected about 130 paintings around town for Ted Smith: A Retrospective.

Art history from city walls

By Andrea Klassen STAFF REPORTER

andrea@kamloopsthisweek.com

T

O TRACE THE MORE than 50 years of Ted Smith’s career, curator Charo Neville had to leave the Kamloops Art Gallery and head into the living rooms of the city’s art collectors.

The bulk of the 130 paintings, drawings and art cards now on display in the main gallery came from local private collectors who have supported Smith since he first began painting his distinctive landscapes in the 1960s.

Two extensive private collections provided much of what she needed, but Smith’s work is widely collected in Kamloops and Neville found herself pulling paintings off walls around the city.

“If you’re interested in art you can see it’s strong painting,” Neville said of the 81-year-old artist’s enduring appeal.

“There isn’t another painter like Ted Smith in Kamloops.”

Smith didn’t initially set out to become a painter.

When an industrial psychologist suggested he consider fine arts or bookkeeping, Smith enrolled at the

Vancouver School of art with the idea of becoming a commercial designer.

Instead, he ended up learning painting from one of B.C.’s most influential artists of the day, Jack Shadbolt (whose work is also on display at the gallery this summer).

While artists like the Group of Seven had dominated Canadian painting before the Second World War, by the1950s and 1960s, abstract artists were beginning to gain prominence across the country.

SHADBOLT AND SMITH:

Jack Shadbolt is remembered as one of the country’s influential abstract painters, but an exhibit now on display at the Kamloops Art Gallery explores the B.C. artist’s work in drawings and prints.

Featuring 79 works donated to the gallery from the Simon Fraser University Art Gallery, the exhibition follows Shadbolt’s career across seven decades, with both standalone pieces and drawings made in preparation for larger murals.

KAG curator Charo Neville said the show will give viewers a better understanding of the influences of local artist Ted Smith, whose retrospective runs alongside the Shadbolt works.

It’s also an opportunity to explore an art form that she said doesn’t always get its dues.

“Often drawings are seen as the step towards painting,” she said. “This is a way of showing how an artist who’s known in Canada as a painter, but drawing was an essential part of his practice.”

Jack Shadbolt’s work (above) influenced the prominent local painter Ted Smith’s art (top right). Each has work currently on display at the Kamloops Art Gallery.

When West-Coast nature meets abstract painting X From B1

On the West Coast, a movement of choice was lyrical abstraction — abstract art that took some of its cues from the natural world.

“They couldn’t really escape the presence of nature around them, because it’s so in your face on the coast,” said Neville.

“So, you see that in the painting. There’s this movement towards abstraction, but it’s considered lyrical abstraction in that it’s always kind of referencing nature.”

Smith’s own landscapes follow that same mode. At their most abstract, his paintings feature bright shapes and streaks that evoke the feel of Kamloops’

cliffs and rivers.

Other paintings that contain more realistic details may be recognized as favourite spots.

“He goes between landscape and abstraction very freely,” Neville said.

“He just flows and you can really see it when you look at a life’s work in one space.

“One moment he was painting what looks like really realistic abstracts and, at the same time, he’s doing work where you can kind of imagine a landscape in it, but it’s highly abstract.”

Smith’s colours flow from realistic to more abstract in a similar fashion. While one painting might feature the sage greens and sun-baked browns often seen

in the city, another will capture the land in bright teals and sunset pinks.

Though he’s become an influential artist in the region, Smith has followed trends in contemporary art at a remove, studying other artists through books and their works.

“He didn’t travel to New York or London or Paris, and he didn’t stay in Vancouver where these discussions were developing,” Neville said. “So, he found the place where he’s most comfortable working and he really works through that over these decades.”

Ted Smith: A Retrospective is open at the Kamloops Art Gallery, 465 Victoria St., until Saturday, Aug. 30.

Fill in the blank cells using numbers 1 to 9. Each number can appear only once in each row, column, and 3x3 block.

Ford enhances Mustang safety features METROLAND MEDIA

W

HEN introduced by Ford in 2008, 911 Assist was the industry’s first automotive technology to call 911 directly following a crash instead of relaying calls through a third party, saving valuable time.

New Ford SYNC 911 Assist features debuting on the 2015 Ford Mustang will offer emergency dispatchers more potentially vital information to better instruct first responders en route to an accident.

If a dispatcher knows both front safety belts were fastened at the time of a high-speed collision, he or she may decide to send an additional ambulance directly to the scene.

Safety-belt monitoring varies based on the airbag systems in the vehicle.

The safety feature requires customer consent to enable the feature when initially pairing a cellphone to SYNC and the customer has the option to cancel the call before it is placed.

In the event of an airbag deployment or fuel shutoff, a direct 911 call is placed

using an occupant’s SYNCconnected phone.

The operator then receives a brief, pre-recorded message that a Ford vehicle has been in a crash and has the option to retrieve vehicle GPS information.

The enhancements will provide the ability to deliver information, such as the maximum change in velocity during impact, indication of crash type (front, side, rear or rollover), safety belt usage as detected by the vehicle, awareness of whether multiple impacts occurred and whether airbags were T:10.25” deployed.
