Contraband cigarettes popular in Kamloops By Tim Petruk
STAFF REPORTER
tim@kamloopsthisweek.com
Where there’s smoke in Kamloops, it’s a good bet some of it will draw the ire of the federal taxman. So say the results of a contraband-cigarette study conducted by the Western Convenience Store Association (WCSA) — a group representing 6,000 convenience stores across Western Canada. The study, which was conducted in April
and May, examined discarded cigarette butts at 48 locations in B.C., including three in the Tournament Capital. Two of those sites — Thompson Rivers University and the City of Kamloops skate park on River Street — figured in the Top 5 provincially in terms of highest contraband percentage. On TRU’s campus, 27.3 per cent of discarded smokes were found to be illegal, while the downtown
skate park had just over a quarter of its butts deemed to be contraband. Andrew Klukas, president of the WCSA, said he’s surprised by the study’s findings. “It’s kind of a shock,” he said. “The amount, we thought we’d see a nice tapering off as you headed west and continue in B.C.” Klukas said it’s tough to know where the illegal smokes are coming from, but noted
a lot of them in B.C. are likely from Asia. Illegal cigarettes often do not contain the same health warnings as legal packs and, Klukas said, they are routinely sold to minors at cheaper prices. In addition to Asian exports, contraband smokes can also show up in B.C. from First Nations producers in Ontario. According to Klukas, illegal cigarette sales are taking a $120-million toll on
government tax revenues. “It’s costing us hospitals, teacher salaries,” he said. “We sell tobacco
“THIS IS MY LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT” …OR IS IT? In British Columbia, certain legislation allows a judge to have the last say on who is entitled estate. Your spouse or children (even adult, nondependant children) can apply to the Court to change your Will, despite the fact that you have consciously decided to distribute your estate a certain way.
Three new doctors, three locums on their way The agency representing family doctors is reporting it has recruited three new physicians, along with three locums to the city. An official with the Divisions of Family Practice, based in Vancouver, said the new doctors will arrive here in summer and fall, a result of the GP for Me campaign. “These new doctors and locums will help with the existing workload for family doctors in
private practices and clinics,” said spokeswoman April van Ert. “While at this stage it is too early to predict how many practices will be able to accept new patients as a result of these recruits, the three locums look forward to getting to know the community with the aim of going into full practices in Kamloops.” Recruitment was done by the Thompson Region Division of Family Practice.
A spokesman with Interior Health Authority said the agency has not been informed of the announcement. Several thousand people in Kamloops are without a family doctor, a situation that has persisted here for at least 15 years. Van Ert said those without a doctor can contact the Thompson Region Division of Family Practice for more information about physician availability.

Lottery CEO’s conflict didn’t cost him By Tom Fletcher BLACK PRESS
tfletcher@kamloopsthisweek.com
Former B.C. Lottery Corporation CEO Michael Graydon was in a conflict of interest when he left his post to take a job with a private Vancouver casino company in Vancouver. That finding by an internal government audit has triggered new restrictions for departing Crown corporation employees. However, it won’t cost Graydon any of the generous departure terms he received when he told the BCLC board of directors in late January he was quitting. Graydon went to work for a company affiliated with Paragon Gaming, which is moving its existing down-
town Vancouver casino to a new resort hotel development next to B.C. Place stadium. He was in talks with Paragon for two months before the told the BCLC board of directors about his conflict of interest. Despite his resignation and a conflictof-interest policy that applies to BCLC staff, the board saw Graydon off with a performance bonus, vacation pay and an extra two months’ salary totalling about $125,000. BCLC board chairman Bud Smith issued a statement Thursday saying that the audit shows “the information provided by Mr. Graydon to the board was incomplete and/or inaccurate.” When Graydon’s

departure was made public in early February, NDP critic Shane Simpson termed it a “sweetheart deal” that violated the government’s policy of not paying severance to people who quit. Finance Minister Mike de Jong announced on Thursday, July 10, that the BCLC and all public-sector
organizations will have the same rules as the senior public service, including a one-year ban on taking a job with organizations that have done business with the government entity. The internal audit reviewed Graydon’s appointment calendar and email records for the period when he was discussing his new role with Paragon. It did not find any disclosure of confidential BCLC information or decisions benefiting Paragon made during that time. The audit also found Graydon was allowed to keep BCLC-issued mobile devices and that his access to the BCLC computer system remained in place for 10 days after he left.
SD73 drug, alcohol suspensions declining By Cam Fortems
remained largely stable in the past five years. But, the number of elementary-school suspensions dropped 40 per cent, while suspensions at secondary school are half the number from two years ago. “I’d want to see if it holds,” Hamblett said, noting one group fight between students from different schools that may produce suspensions, for example, could drastically influence the overall numbers from year to year. Hamblett said there is a move at schools away from suspending students. Suspensions are classified by the district as one to five days and more than five days. The district levied just 10 sus-
STAFF REPORTER

While the KamloopsThompson school district reported a drop in suspensions and discipline for use of drugs and alcohol, a senior administrator said it is too early to determine whether numbers will continue to decrease. Bill Hamblett, assistant superintendent of student services for SD73, also acknowledged numbers can be influenced by reporting and a move away from suspending students from school. The number of severe studentbehaviour incidents, at 22 in the most recent year available, has
pensions of more than five days in the most recent period. That compares to a recent high in the 2010-2011 school year of 83. “We know by suspending a kid for 10 or 15 days, there will be a growing disconnect,” Hamblett said. “There’s less chance of bringing that student back in.” As a result, he said, “you’ll see a big drop” in suspensions of more than five days. A report presented to the board of education this week also detailed a drop in student dismissals for drugs and alcohol. There were 165 such dismissals in the report, an 18 per cent drop from the previous year.
Xeriscaping in Kamloops
Xeriscape means “water conservation through creative landscaping”. Landscapes suited to our semi-arid climate conserve water and have an advantage over pest problems. Apply these principles to any garden style and have a healthy, high quality landscape: 1. Planning and design: Group plants according to their water use. Slope hard surfaces to drain to planted areas. Avoid steep slopes – create terraces instead. Use groundcovers on gentle slopes. 2. Good soils: Organic matter is an excellent soil amendment. It improves moisture holding capacity in sandy soils and helps to loosen clay soils. 3. Appropriate plant selection: Drought tolerant plants thrive here. There are many beautiful trees, shrubs and flowers with low water needs. 4. Practical turf areas: Replace unused lawns with other plants. Use hard-surfacing for play courts, patios, and walkways. 5. Water wisely: Water deeply, but infrequently to encourage deep rooting and drought-tolerance. 6. Mulch: Apply a layer of organic matter to: protect roots from elements, enrich soil, and control weeds. 7. Proper maintenance: Your landscape will require less maintenance over time. Visit the Xeriscape Demonstration Garden at McArthur Island or the Harrington Road Booster Station at 790 Harrington Road for inspiration.

Sure, I was seriously miserable and looking for any reason to complain during the longest run of my life. But, five, six, 20 vehicles later, I am confident in saying East Shuswap Road is one of the most dangerous places I’ve run in Kamloops. It was a poor choice from the beginning — jogging along the shoulder amid single-lane traffic in an 80 km/h zone. It seemed OK with no vehicles in sight and a jaywalker’s philosophy that you’ll be more careful with impending danger. Plenty of cyclists frequent the road. There’s the distractions, too. The Instagram-worthy views of the river, the eastern and western skies, rolling hills and desert lands all make for a beautiful backdrop to the sound of feet on pavement. It’s also peaceful and quiet without the hustle and bustle founds on the other side of the South Thompson. There’s the odd dead bird — I counted two on my run — but it really is quite beautiful. You’re caught in the moment of it all, roadkill aside, until you happen upon the first vehicle. It’s flying at you at more than 100 km/h and a painted line is the only thing between your outer running shoe and their outer tire. I managed a method after realiz-

ing I was committed to the speedway that is East Shuswap Road. First, determine: Does the driver see you? Second: Do they care? Third: Which side of the road has the cushiest shoulder to jump into when someone neither sees you nor cares you are travelling in a vessel about 3,000 pounds lighter than theirs? Go there. To be fair, some drivers see you, move over, slow down and even give you a kind little wave for the bravery that is running on this stretch of road. But, the majority seem to treat the “road” like a backdoor Kamloops Autobahn. You feel all grandma-naggy while wagging a finger — the middle one — as they kick dust up into your eyes, adding insult to injury after nearly killing you. Blind corners add fun. Not to mention there’s not a single place to hydrate or pee anywhere on this route. The runner’s high makes you forget it all because — hooray! — it’s done. But, I wouldn’t run there again.
I would, however, recommend any of these local walking or running routes for your next trip outdoors. • Starting at Pioneer Park and heading to Riverside Park and back, or vice-versa, is about three kilometres and allows for a quick swim. • Leave Riverside Park, cross Overlanders Bridge and continue to the end of Schubert Drive. Clock about 10 kilometres while taking in views from both rivers. • Scale the hills along Valleyview for a new perspective. Begin at Orchards Walk, pop out by the entrance to Juniper and run back along Valleyview Drive. • Choose your own adventure in Kenna Cartwright Park with about 40 kilometres of trails as uphill as you’re willing to tackle. There’s a picnic table at the top, too, so you can bring food. • Follow Rivers Trail as far as Westsyde, hit up the dog park by the airport or count laps, three kilometres at a time, around McArthur Island. • Find relief from achy pavement on the spongy 400-metre outdoor track at the Tournament Capital Centre. • Peterson Creek is convenient because it’s accessible from multiple vantage points. Find the waterfall from each entrance. All in all, there are plenty of places to walk or run outdoors in Kamloops without playing a one-sided game of chicken on East Shuswap Highway. Where’s your favourite spot?

BCLC board needs to explain fiasco In the wake of a report that found former B.C. Lottery Corporation CEO Michael Graydon was in conflict of interest while negotiating a job with a private casino firm, questions remain. As NDP gambling critic Shane Simpson has noted, someone in the BCLC bungled this big time, but will anyone pay the price? The fact that Graydon was negotiating to work with a private gambling firm while heading the government’s gambling arm should be enough to point to an obvious conflict of interest, regardless of what the investigation revealed this week. But, the fact Graydon negotiated while on the taxpayer dime, then quit voluntarily, then scoop up $125,000 in taxpayer funds as he walked out the door is more than a little galling. While Finance Minister Michael de Jong has acknowledged the report and announced policy changes to prevent such a situation in the future, where is the BCLC board’s defence of offering such an offensive golden parachute? Kamloops’ Bud Smith is chairman of the BCLC board and has only issued a terse statement, which argued the audit shows the audit shows “the information provided by Mr. Graydon to the board was incomplete and/or inaccurate.” If that is a fact, perhaps Smith and board can then inform the public whether it plans to ask Graydon to perhaps return to taxpayers some, if not all, of the money he pocketed after leaving, but not before providing incomplete and/or inaccurate information to the BCLC board. The problem is these types of shenanigans are endemic in B.C.’s Crown corporations and we will be writing about another transgression soon enough.

FILLING UP ON A JULY NIGHT Clear skies this week have afforded spectacular views of the moon in its waxing gibbous glory.

Editor: To those who frequent Centennial Park in Westsyde, stop treating it like a garbage can. I’m sick and tired of going there with my dog and seeing dog crap, cigarette butts and beer cans. I’ve lost count of how often I’ve cleaned up after other people because it sickens me to see my favourite park disrespected. How easy is it to clean up after your dog? The city provides bags in multiple locations in the park and still people just leave their dog poop. And why do smokers consider the world their ashtray? My dog stepped on a still-lit cigarette. If I could have identified who tossed it, there would have been a nasty scene. Have some bloody respect. It’s a park, not a dump. Chad Pearson Kamloops

Helping keep hospitals clean By Dale Bass

STAFF REPORTER
dale@kamloopsthisweek.com
HILIPPE SCHLESSER HAS travelled through some of the most desperate parts of the world. Among the many images that have stayed with him was one he thought he could help solve. It was the reality that, in many hospitals in poor and remote areas, medical waste — blood, placenta, needles, syringes and other debris — is simply tossed out the window. In fact, in many of these places, sick people fear going to the hospital because they see it as being more contaminated than their own homes. Schlesser had an idea and now, thanks to Grand Challenges Canada, he has start-up money to proceed with that plan. His project is one of 65 being funded by the federal-government agency, with $112,000 going to his Kamloops office to work on creating an incinerator that will safely destroy medical waste. Schlesser, whose office is in the Innovation Centre on
the North Shore, said any incinerator that will be developed will require filters to deal with fumes. The heat will be high enough to reduce needles to crisp metal that can be crushed. Eliminating the wanton dumping of medical waste will also reduce the chance of bacteria entering the food chain in communities through seepage into water or if eaten by animals. Schlesser hopes to develop and test the equipment in Kamloops and is on the hunt for an engineer with expertise in incineration. Once his incinerator has been built and tested, Schlesser wants to take it to Bangladesh, one of the countries he has visited, and start a pilot project at a hospital there, working with the International Centre for Diarrhoeal Disease

One of many open-pit incinerators for medical waste, on public hospital grounds. Waste pickers gather used medical equipment for resale, spreading infectious diseases througout the community in Bangladesh.
Research (ICDDR) organization in Dhaka, Bangladesh. ICDDR is a health-research agency that looks at issues ranging from neonatal survival rates to infectious diseases. Schlesser, who was born in Luxembourg, moved to Kamloops about 18 months ago. He said he applied for the Grand Challenges grant because it supports research into broad
humanitarian needs. He said he studied design in Denmark and then started to consider how it can be used “to solve problems in a different way.” Schlesser focuses not so much on going into a community and doing, but going in, working alongside, teaching and creating something sustainable. Creating an incinerator brings many challenges, Schlesser said.
Beyond the medical waste, he said, there is also “a lot of moisture, a lot of humidity in much of the waste, so we need something that burns it all away. “This is not just cleaning the hospital grounds, but helping ensure healthy patients and a healthy community,” he said.

ANNIVERSARY ANNIVERSARY WEEKEND JOIN US IN CELEBRATING 100 YEARS OF KAMLOOPS’ FINEST GOLF COURSE
Six longtime members of the Kamloops Golf and Country Club sit around a table in the basement of the course’s clubhouse, remembering the club’s “good ‘ol days.” For more than an hour, Mike Graas, Loretta Ellison, Art Worth, Garnet Lineker, Julie Matter and Harold Simkins spout their encyclopedic knowledge of the more than 6,500 yards of play that comprise Kamloops’s oldest course. Stories from decades on the course’s fairways and greens spring from their mouths like a well-played bunker shot leaves the sand. One remembers that storm all those years ago, bringing those winds from the north, gusts seemingly hurricane-forced, which ripped every willow tree on the course out by its roots. Another brings up that old clubhouse with its electrical and plumbing problems, on the verge of being condemned and too small for the club’s growing membership. The regulars were relieved when construction began on a new building, until the day Graas toured
its frame and realized it wouldn’t have any more square footage than the old one. They all laugh about the infamous fox and the murder of crows that patrolled the course, both known for stealing golf balls when no one was looking. They can still hear the sound of balls being dropped on the nearby refinery tanks by the crows — an attempt to crack them open in hopes there was food inside. Ellison recalls, with no fondness in her voice, the days when women weren’t allowed on the course until after noon on weekends. The only thing more surprising is that those rules were still in effect as recently as 1972. There are memories of children on the course, too. Members can still see Marilyn O’Connor — daughter of the course’s first pro, Rod Palmer, and Canadian Golf Hall of Fame inductee — running around the parking lot as a kid, before she went on to become one of the course’s most famous alumni. A story also circulates about

Graas’s wife giving birth to their first daughter in the pro’s house on club grounds, the family unable to get to the hospital in time. Things have certainly changed since the days when the only carts on the course were privately owned and players wielded steel clubs in the days before graphite. Back then, the course was so busy its 800 members had to wait for their names to be drawn from a hat for tee times, which ran every seven minutes from dawn to dusk. For those who lived on the course, KGCC’s 100 years have been about more than golfing; they’ve been about socials and tournaments, lifelong friends and memories of a lifetime.
100th Anniversary
The course opened in 1914 and left divots on the grounds now home to Hillside Cemetery and SaHali’s McGill subdivision, before moving to its current location on Kamloops’s North Shore. It began as a nine-hole track before expanding to 18 in the 1960s. In 2009, the course was closed for a year to facilitate a $3.1-million course renovation, which brought it to its current form. With the recollections of the course’s alumni come laughs and smiles, eyes that stare off into the distance as if trying to relive the moments of their youths. Though a hundred years old in 2014, it all seems to have happened just yesterday.

100 TH ANNIVERSARY
KAMLOOPS GOLF & COUNTRY CLUB
THE NEXT ONE HUNDRED YEARS With 100 years in the books, attention at the Kamloops Golf and Country Club will soon turn to what the next century will bring to Kamloops’s oldest course. If the first century at the club is any indication, there are certainly a few changes on the horizon. Kamloops Golf and Country Club is celebrating its 100th anniversary this summer, having opened in the Tournament Capital in 1914. Harold Simkins, the club’s general manager and director of golf, sees another bright 100 years ahead for the Tranquile Road track. “I think our golf course is pretty well situated with the fact that it’s walk-able and tree-lined and people still want to get out and get exercise,” Simkins said. “I think exercise is going to become more of an important attribute of our lives coming forward.” While some have worried youth
are not taking to the sport in sufficient numbers, Simkins said many people don’t start golfing until their 50s, when activities like running and triathlons are no longer viable. Just the third head professional in the course’s 100-year history, Simkins said a changing of the guard at the club might soon be on the horizon, too. There are few courses of Kamloops’ age that have seen such dedication from its pros. Simkins, Rod Palmer and Mike Graas are of a dying breed — pros that spend their entire careers at a single course. Simkins predicted that with his retirement, KGCC will become like many other tracks, with pros who serve four or five years before moving on to the next stage of their careers. “I don’t think it’s that bad a thing,” he said. “I think it’s just a new change of blood, helps new ideas.”
“I think it’s a good idea.” With rising costs, courses aren’t as financially profitable nowadays as they once were. Simkins said we might one day see a time when KGCC no longer maintains the rough to the extent it does now. Fairways and greens will still be tended, but outside of that, the course will be left to grow naturally. But even with those changes, people will continue to golf and the course will continue its storied history. Despite changes with the times, the next 100 years will be much like the last. “I just think the future is the golf course needs to continue to grow its membership, become more of a member’s-own golf club,” Simkins said. “I think that golf is going to continue to take over like it has been going for a while, I don’t think there will be all that much change.”
The oldest club in Kamloops is the newest 18-hole Championship course. The redesigned course offers gently rolling carpet fairways leading to super smooth, contoured greens, all open in the front so the course can be played in many different ways. Set amongst mature trees this easily walkable course is a shotmakers dream. It’s four sets of tees offer golfers of all levels an enjoyable expereince. With strategically placed mounding and bunkers it challenges the player to use a variety of approaches to the new USGA designed bent grass greens. No matter how the game went, walking off the final green leaves you with the feeling, “what if”? This is a course about which must be said, once is not enough. So a visit to the fully licensed clubhouse for refreshment and nourishment is a definite. The Kamloops Golf & Country Club has fast become the preferred course to play in the area.
CONGRATULATIONS Kamloops Golf & Country Club on your 100TH ANNIVERSARY! “Hats off to 100 years in business! As a member, I’ve personally enjoyed the friendly atmosphere of the Club plus the new renovations of the course which have created new challenges for golfers while still emphasizing the walkable layout. Our hotel is pleased to enjoy a great partnership with the Club and Golf Kamloops offering stellar Stay & Play packages and we look forward to many sunny tee times at the Club in the future.”

Community-football president talks gridiron By Adam Williams STAFF REPORTER
D
adam@kamloopsthisweek.com
AVE ARTHURS IS HOPING the Kamloops Community Football Society [KCFS] can continue to build momentum following its atom squad’s provincial-championship victory in 2013. About 20 youth football players joined the KCFS president on the field beside Hillside Stadium on Wednesday, July 9, as he ran drills for the society’s football summer camp. According to Arthurs, 2013 was a breakout season for community football in Kamloops — highlighted by the atoms bringing home a long-awaited provincial championship. Right now, he’s happy with where his teams are at competitively in B.C. “In general, I am, with the atom and peewee age groups, we’re pretty happy, and the junior bantams, same thing,” he told KTW. There will be a few changes for community football in 2014, including the move of all four of the society’s age groups — atom (7-9), peewee (10-11), junior bantam (12-13) and bantam (14-15) — to nine-man football. Previously, only the provincial-champion atom team played the nine-man form of the game. The society has also decided it will run the same playbooks at all of its levels. Slight elaborations will be made as players get older, with some complexity added, but the basic playbook will be the same. “We’re hoping with that, it will make us stronger and stronger as we move along,” Arthurs said. “Our atom team that won the provincials last year, for instance, those kids ran 28 plays in an offence for seven-, eight- and nine-year-olds and didn’t make a mistake. “That kind of showed us the model and how it can work.” Despite coming off one of the society’s most successful seasons, which included provincial recognition at the B.C. Lions

Orange Helmet Awards, Arthurs embarks on another year knowing the football landscape is by no means perfect in the Tournament Capital. He was among the Kamloops football gurus who met in October to discuss the health of the game in the River City, but said Wednesday he has seen little in the way of progress since the meeting. A number of concerns were expressed at that meeting, from parents and football administrators alike — a failure to nurture high school junior-varsity programs; senior high-school players and the junior Broncos don’t give enough back to the minor-football ranks; the media isn’t fair with its football coverage; coaches need to communicate more with the media or delegate public-relations duties; high-school coaches are doing a poor job of recruiting
minor-football players; community football is stealing young high-school talent. “Things haven’t really changed, unfortunately,” Arthurs said. “The stuff that was supposed to come out of that meeting — nothing has really happened.” Dino Bernardo, president of the junior Kamloops Broncos, said it might be true little has happened yet, but believes there’s still time to make changes. “The reality of it is we had that meeting at the end of our year last year,” Bernardo said. “So, really, it’s not something that can happen overnight. It’s something that has to take some time to develop.” Bernardo said the Broncos have already begun to make changes. The club is trying to alter its culture — about five players weren’t invited back to
the team because of attitude issues. He also said the squad is working closely with former CFLer Brad Yamaoka — who called the meeting last October — to try and tighten relations between the Broncos, the community and other River City gridiron teams, including those in the minor ranks. Perhaps the team most in need of community support, the junior Broncos are hoping 2014 can be a big year. Bernardo praised and thanked the 600or-so die-hard fans who frequent Hillside Stadium on game nights, but said he would love to see 1,000 blue-and-orange clad specators in the stands. Arthurs said groups in the city need to get behind football in general, or teams like the Broncos of the B.C. Football Conference won’t be around for much longer. “When we lose kids to the Okanagan Sun, for instance, good local kids and they’re playing for the Okanagan Sun instead of playing for our team, that bugs the heck out of me,” Arthurs said. Prized Valleyview secondary football product Lliam Wishart recently opted to play for the Sun instead of the Broncos. “You know what, they’re making a decision for themselves, I understand that, but that means we haven’t done a good enough job as a community to support that team [the Broncos], to provide them with the framework that they need to convince good Kamloops athletes that it means something to play at home, it means something to play for this team and be successful with this program,” Arthurs said. “He’s right,” Bernardo said in reference to Arthurs’ comments on community support. “We need to embrace the program, or we’re not going to have a program. “Part of it is, like I’ve said to you, we’re going into a gun fight with a knife because we just don’t have the resources to compete with all these other teams.” At the October meeting, the Kamloops football braintrust agreed fewer kids are playing football.

The reason for that is up for debate, but Arthurs said on Wednesday there’s a lot of fear about concussions in the air — fear he feels is unfounded. “It seems that most of that is always targeted at football and I don’t understand that,” he said. “I mean, I never played in high school, but my kid played five years of junior and didn’t suffer any real concussions. “He has been hurt more in rugby than he has been in football.” Arthurs is committed to another season of community football in Kamloops and hopes teams can match the success of the 2013 atoms. Registration for community football is open until Sept. 30. Go online to kamloops.bccfa.org for more information.
The Beautiful Game is colliding with a good walk spoiled at Sun Rivers Golf Resort. FootGolf opens to the public at Sun Rivers on Saturday, July 12. “It follows the exact same rules of golf, except you’re using your foot wedge all the way around and it’s legal,” Sun Rivers general manager Rob Larocque said. “It’s an interesting, new, fun sport. It allows us to engage a new demography to bring people out to Sun Rivers and we’re seeing some crossover between the two sports. “Maybe some players will enjoy themselves, have a good time on the golf course and maybe pick up a golf club instead of kicking it around.” There are 18 soccerball size holes spread
across the first nine holes at Sun Rivers. Larocque said it takes about two hours to complete 18 holes of FootGolf and foursomes tee off, or kick off, just as a golf foursome would. “If you happen to hit the golf ball into one of
the foot-golf holes, you do get free relief from that, but they are off to the side where you really shouldn’t be anyway,” Larocque said. It costs $20 for adults and $12 for juniors (18-and-under) to play 18 FootGolf holes. Sun Rivers will
donate $5 from each green fee on Saturday to the Kamloops Youth Soccer Association. After Saturday, $1 from each fee will go to the KYSA. Some golf purists might not be on board with FootGolf. Larocque said most members at Sun Rivers seem to be OK with the idea. “Everybody has an open mind,” he said. “From a golf-purist standpoint, and I’m very much a golf purist, you’ve got a couple extra flags on the golf course that aren’t pertaining to you. It’s more of a visual thing. “The holes are strategically placed where we don’t get a lot of regular golf play, to minimize any disruption to the golfer. “The number of people we’ve talked to over the last little while are very excited about getting it out there.”
There are no FootGolf holes on the back nine, Larocque added, and the new sport’s tee times must be scheduled between Thursday and Monday, from noon onward. “Your golf this time of year is usually played first thing in the morning until about noon, so it doesn’t impede where the bulk of our golf play is currently,” Larocque said. FootGolf players can use golf shoes, running shoes or indoor-soccer shoes, but cleats are not welcome on the course. There seems to have been some success with the new sport in Europe and Larocque said it’s catching on in certain areas of the U.S. He would like to see it stick around at Sun Rivers. “We’re hoping for some longevity and some uptake,” he said. “Will it last forever? I don’t know.”

MUG SHOTS CRIME OF THE WEEK ANOTHER GARAGE BREAK AND ENTER
Climbing aficionado Iain Stewart-Patterson of Kamloops is flanked by his son, Robert, and daughter, Alison. Christian J. Stewart/Boulders Media
Ascending into Canadian history Iain StewartPatterson of Kamloops has become the first Canadian-born, internationally-certified mountain guide to earn a PhD. Stewart-Patterson’s PhD is notable in the climbing and guiding field because his research focused on risk management, specifically the role that a guide or climbing instructor’s intuition plays in managing guests in a risk environment. Based on his results, he is now proposing changes in the way instructors and guides are trained, in order to
accelerate and refine the development of decision expertise. Stewart-Patterson, president of the Sport Climbing Association of British Columbia (SCBC), is a certified mountain guide with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides and is also a senior lecturer with Thompson Rivers University in the adventure-studies department. He is now one of 10 fully certified mountain guides in the world to currently hold a PhD and the only one to call B.C. and Canada home. “Iain has been one
of our most valuable volunteers, creating a competition-belaying program that is the first of its kind in North America,” said Kimanda Jarzebiak, SCBC vice-president. “This has helped us safely host numerous events, including the World Youth Championships in 2013 and the just completed 2014 SCBC Provincial Championships.” Stewart-Patterson lives in Kamloops with his wife Deb and their two children, Robert and Alison, train at the Boulders Climbing Gym in Brentwood Bay.

World Cup final breakdown By Mattias Karen
ASSOCIATED PRESS
RIO DE JANEIRO — The best player in the world goes up against the ultimate team machine on the world’s biggest stage. When Lionel Messi’s Argentina takes on Germany in Sunday’s (July 13) World Cup final, it looks at first glance like a meeting between brilliant individual scoring talent and the tight discipline of a collective unit. But, this game will be about much more than that. Add in the rich history between these two teams — who faced each other in two straight World Cup finals in 1986 and 1990, winning one each — and it’s anyone’s guess who will come out on top at the Maracana Stadium. Here is a look at how the two finalists compare: Goalkeepers: Manuel Neuer’s reputation as one of the best goalkeepers in the world has only grown
field and put him back in his favoured position as right back after an erratic display against Algeria in the second round. Mats Hummels has been a steady anchor in central defence. Whether they can deal with Messi is another matter. Argentina’s defence was seen as its main weakness going into the World Cup, but the team has now gone 330 minutes without conceding a goal in the knockout rounds. The back four made Dutch strikers Arjen Robben and Robin van Persie look plain ordinary. Advantage: Germany
in Brazil, where he has been one of Germany’s best players throughout the tournament, especially in the knockout rounds. Aside from being a first-class shot stopper, the Bayern Munich goalkeeper showed his versatility by repeatedly rushing out to help the defence in the secondround win over Algeria. He then made key saves to deny Karim Benzema an equalizer for France in the quarterfinals, and a number of impressive stops against Brazil. Sergio Romero has answered most sceptics who questioned whether he was good enough to play for a top team in a World Cup. Romero was only a backup for his club Monaco this past season, but came through big in the penalty shootout against the Netherlands. Advantage: Germany
Midfield: This is Germany’s biggest strength, a unit without weakness that plays together as a welloiled machine. Bastian Schweinsteiger and Sami Khedira shore things up defensively, while Toni Kroos and Mesut Ozil direct most of the attacks going forward. Germany’s ruthless display against Brazil
Defence: Germany’s defence has improved vastly since coach Joachim Loew took captain Philip Lahm out of mid-
was orchestrated by the clinical efficiency of its midfield — and a similar display on Sunday might just be too much for Argentina to handle as well. The Argentines, meanwhile, are hoping that Angel Di Maria will recover from a thigh injury to play in the final. Di Maria’s pace and ability to take on defenders on the wing was sorely missed against the Netherlands,. Advantage: Germany Attack: Germany has the highest-scoring player in World Cup history in Miroslav Klose. But Argentina has
Messi, and two other top forwards to boot. While Messi hasn’t scored in the three knockout games, his four goals in the group stage reminded everyone of why he’s a four-time world player of the year. Even with Sergio Aguero and Gonzalo Higuain in the team, Messi has always been the key to Argentina’s success _ and never more so than in the biggest game of his career. Germany aren’t bad up front either: Klose netted his 16th career World Cup goal against Brazil, and his teammate Thomas Mueller already has 10 in just two tournaments. Advantage: Argentina

Obituaries & In Memoriam S.N. McLEAN
February 12, 1927 – June 28, 2014
O’Rourke
He left to attend Vancouver College, later graduated from Lord Bing High School, and went on to earn a Bachelor of Forestry at UBC in 1951. He devoted his professional life to the practice of forestry. After several years in Malakwa, Taft, and Sicamous country, he and his young family moved to Kamloops to work for W.W. Stevens, a forestry consultant. In 1961, after Mr. Stevens’s untimely demise, Neil and his wife, E.M. Helen, purchased the business that became S.N. McLean Forestry Services Ltd. The company operated for over 40 years out of the main office in Kamloops, as well as those in Castlegar and Prince George. Neil sponsored numerous summer forestry students. Many who followed in his footsteps in professional forestry service took with them the ethics and integrity he believed to be necessary to every forester’s imprint on the profession.
The birds on the South Thompson River have lost a great friend. On June 28, on a beautiful afternoon, the spirit of a very good man found its way to the light. Sinclair Neil McLean passed away in his own bed, surrounded by his loving family and nine grandchildren. Two turtledoves flew by the window and two deer came to graze below. Neil was born February 12, 1927 in Prince George to Sinclair and Helen McLean, a pioneer lumbering family. As the youngest son, he learned the many facets of the business, from river driving logs down the Fraser to every task in the mill.
Neil’s persistent health problems were met with equal perseverance and tenacity. He never let them overcome his joie de vivre and his passion for living a full life. He found a spiritual resonance in nature, something that brought a particular joy, whether it was the deep woods of his youth or at the edge of the South Thompson River in later years. He truly believed in the Rotary motto, “Service above self”, and served as a life member of Kamloops North Rotary and the Fraser/Fort George Museum. Numerous and quality friendships were forged through Rotary especially. Neil was also a long time member of the Association of B.C. Forest Professionals and the Forest History Association of B.C. In earlier years, he was a member of the Eagle Valley Fish & Game Club and the Sicamous Kinsmen.
Jean Dawson MacKay JULY 7, 1931 - JULY 6, 2014
With dignity and grace, Jean passed away after a brief illness, with family by her side. Family meant everything to Jean and she will be deeply missed by daughters Shawne and Trish, granddaughter Kaeli, great-granddaughter Freyjah, son-in-law Dave, niece Lisa, nephew Don and many close family and friends. Jean was predeceased by husband Gordon in 1999 and dear sister Margot in 2008. Born in Merritton (St. Catherines, Ontario), Jean and her family moved to BC around 1951, where she met and married Gord in 1954. She graduated as a psychiatric nurse from Essondale in 1954. Nursing was more than a vocation for Jean; it was a passion and she was loved and admired by all her colleagues and patients over her long career. The family would especially like to thank Dr. Bishop for his caring and compassion, the nursing staff on 7 North at the Royal Inland Hospital, and the amazing staff of Kamloops Hospice. A Celebration of Life will be held for Jean, date to be announced. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the BC Cancer Agency and the Kamloops Hospice Association.
Neil is survived by E.M. Helen, who is his life long mate and wife of nearly 62 years, as well as his three children: son Murray McLean (Tammy Abrahamson); daughter Maureen Young (Allen); and daughter Kerry-Lynne Small. Neil also leaves behind his grandchildren: Lachlan McLean (Sayena Fariji); Lucas McLean (Jessica Buzzeo); Lana McLean; Zachary Young (Natalie Peace); Taylor-Marie Young (Robert Fischer); Jacob Young (Jenna Patterson); Nicholas Small; Michael Small (Katie Almeida); Samantha Small; and his cherished great-grandson, Lincoln Sinclair McLean. Neil is also survived by son-in-law Henry Small; his remaining sister, Marilyn Goertsen; and many nieces and nephews. Neil was predeceased by his youngest sister, Lynne Mann. Dearest Neil—devoted husband, loving father, and beloved Poppa: your flag flies at half-mast; your mountains have been climbed; and your guest book, filled to the last page, is now complete. Neil’s family acknowledges the quality care provided by the physicians and nurses of Royal Inland Hospital and the Kamloops home support nurses. A ceremony in recognition of Neil’s life will be held at the South Thompson Inn at 3438 Shuswap Road in Kamloops on Saturday, August 23, 2014, beginning at 3:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations in remembrance of Sinclair Neil McLean may be made to Kamloops North Rotary (Box 24036 70-700 Tranquille Road, Kamloops, BC, V2B 8R3); the Crohn’s and Colitis Foundation of Canada (600-60 St. Clair Avenue, East Toronto, ON, M4T 1N5); or any charity of choice.
HERMAN SCHROTTNER
Herman Schrottner passed away peacefully on the evening of July 7th, 2014 at the age of 70 after a year-long battle with lung cancer. Herman is survived by his wife Pat, his two sons Edwin (Janna) and Erik (Julia), his grandchildren Matthaeus and Alice as well as his sisters Anna, Joanna and Gerti in Austria. Herman leaves behind numerous extended family members in Canada and Austria as well as many cherished friends around the world. He was predeceased by his parents Philipp and Josefa Schrottner and his two older brothers Matthaeus and Hans. Herman was born August 23rd 1943 in Gams, Austria. After losing both of his parents at a young age, he was raised by his brother Matthaeus and other relatives. Herman’s love of skiing was discovered through school trips and weekends with his brother. Herman apprenticed and worked as a chimney sweep in Austria, as well as performing his mandatory service in the Austrian Military. As a young man he enjoyed weekend trips to Yugoslavia with

THANK YOU With heartfelt thanks for all the love, prayers and medical care given to my husband, our Papa and our Dad, the late Clarence Neis. Thank you to family members, friends, Fr. Peter and parishioners of OLPH Church, Dr. Germaine, Dr. Jung, Dr. Kosar, Dr. Kramer, Dr. Cleland, Dr. Nair, Karla (Community RT) and especially Dr. Hamilton and Nurse Practioner Natalie Manhard. Grateful thanks also to Kelowna Cancer Clinic Radiation Department for their kind and patient care. May God bless each and everyone. THE NEIS FAMILY
gh
friends: this sparked a desire to explore other parts of the world. In 1966, after a brief deliberation between Australia and Canada, he decided to come to Canada with a friend, where he spent a year traveling from Montreal to Vancouver in a VW. He returned to Austria, but had decided that Canada would be his new home and immigrated to Canada in 1968. Herman chose to live in Vancouver where he worked in construction before moving to Kamloops in 1970. His passion and talent for skiing drew him to a job working as a ski instructor at Lac Le Jeune ski area. It was a ski lesson that provided the opportunity for Herman and Pat to meet for the first time. In 1973 Herman and a partner started a ski school at a new ski area in Kamloops: Harper Mountain. Herman and Pat married in 1974. Edwin was born in 1977 and Erik was born in 1979. Herman is well recognized in Kamloops as he spent 30 years as Ski-School Director and running the ski shop at Harper Mountain before retiring after the 2003-2004 ski season. His family would like to thank Dr. Malan, The Kamloops Cancer Clinic and The Kamloops Hospice. Herman was a loving husband, a devoted father, a helpful son-in-law, a proud Opa and a jack-of-all-trades to anyone who needed help. He will be greatly missed. A Celebration of his life will be held at 1:00pm in the Schoening Funeral Chapel, 513 Seymour on Tuesday July 15, 2014. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Canadian Cancer Society or the Kamloops Hospice Association.

ROBERT BUFFIE
November 23, 1921 - July 4, 2014
September 19, 1950 – July 7, 2014

He is survived by his three sons Bruce (Imee); Daryl (Treena); Kenny (Diane) and seven grandchildren: Brett, Drew, Kurt, Jenna, Ty, Sam and Hannah. He is also survived by his siblings: Linda, Margaret, Elda, Rosie, Pauline, Ed, Frank. Predeceased by his brothers Jimmy, Johnny and Gordon. Bert was a veteran of World War II and his family was the most important thing to him. When he was well he spent many hours in his incredible vegetable gardens which he looked forward to sharing with his family and friends each year. Bert was an avid Kamloops Blazers fan who for many years never missed a game. He enjoyed watching games with his brothers, sons and grandkids. It made him happy seeing his grandchildren grow and especially Sunday family dinners when everyone was together. Many special occassions were spent at family gatherings that his sisters made possible. Thanks to them for all of the support over these last couple years. As well, thanks to Uncle Frank and Bert’s neighbours, especially Mike, for helping out the family so much. Special thanks to all the kind staff at Ponderosa who helped care for Bert in these last few months and also the nurses on RIH 7th floor who all do a difficult job so well each day. We will miss the laughs we shared with Papa. No service by request. Schoenings Funeral Service in care of arrangments.
HAZEL CECILIA GUNDERSON Born April 10, 1926, Kyle, Sask. Died July 2, 2014. Hazel leaves behind her husband, Clifford, children Brian (Sidsel), Sandra (Jim) Moran and Norman (Elna Borgenesset), Grandchildren Kristian (Lori), Thomas, Carson & Austin, Great-grandchildren Sophia & Leif. She was the last living member of her immediate family of Janna and Eivind Urvold (parents), Ellen (Edgar) Kinvig and Harold (Eileen) Urvold (siblings) Born in Kyle, Saskatchewan, Hazel’s parents were immigrants from Norway to a new land. During the Great Depression of the 1930’s her family moved to Aldergrove, BC where she eventually met Clifford, her husband of 65 years. She trained to become a registered nurse in Saint Paul’s Hospital, Vancouver. Shortly after graduating, she married, and moved to Vancouver Island and started to raise her family. In 1953, they sold their ½ interest in the logging business Clifford had started with Olaf Fedje, and moved to the farm in Vinsulla. Raising her family, farming and having an egg sales route in Kamloops in the ‘60’s and 70’s was a fulfilling life for her. Many will remember her as “The Egg Lady”. She took her RN refresher course in 1972, and returned to nursing to finance her many travels throughout the world. The years working on 1 South at RIH were very rewarding times for Hazel. She was also very active with the Woman’s Institute, starting a new group “Vinsulla WI” in the 50’s. She felt fortunate to travel attending world conferences of the Associated Country Women of the World, to England and South Africa, as well as Vancouver and Lennoxville, Quebec. She was a life member in ACWW, as well as Vinsulla WI and Sons of Norway, which she was also a chartered, and life member. She was very proud of the fact that the WI started the British Columbia’s Children’s Hospital. Hazel’s love of travelling and interest in the lives of others took her to Australia, New Zealand, China, Europe and South Africa. Together with her husband she toured Canada and Western USA in the 1966 Ford truck and camper. She made numerous trips to Norway to visit relatives. She also visited friends she met in her travels in the UK. Her love of gardening showed in her ever increasing number and size of flower beds! She also was an avid cross country skier, hiker and photographer. She enjoyed her bridge group, although she participated more for the social benefits than the seriousness of the game! She spent many hours canvasing her neighbours for donations for the Cancer and Heart and Stroke funds. Our home was always welcoming to visitors, with a hearty meal of moose meat and potatoes waiting. The family would like to thank the staff of Pinegrove Care facility for the kind and loving atmosphere and care they provided for her final months. Special thanks go to Theresa, Wendy and Jocelyn for the kind and compassionate care. A celebration of her life will be held at the Heffley Creek Community Hall July 19th at 11:00. For anyone with stories to share, there will be an open mike. Lunch will be served following the service.
It is with profound sadness that we the family of Robert James (Bobbie) Buffie announce his peaceful passing on July 7, 2014. Bob was predeceased by his mother and father, Margaret and Rudy Buffie and is survived by his loving sisters and brothers: Linda (Mike), Randy, Tommy, Laurie (Joe), Lisa (Gerry) and Lianne. Bob always had a special place in his heart for his nieces and nephews: Melissa, Alexis, Michael, Spencer, Taryn, Colton, Nikki and Paige (his “toots”). Also his great nieces and nephews will miss their Uncle Bobbie as well as many other family members and friends. Bob always enjoyed a good game of pool, was artistically talented, and the best “fudge” maker ever! No formal service by request. As per Bob’s wishes, a private family gathering will take place on his birthday to inter his ashes. The family wishes to extend their heartfelt gratitude to the doctors, nurses and staff at the Kamloops Cancer Clinic and special appreciation to the “angels” at hospice who took such amazing care of our brother/ uncle. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Marjorie Willoughby Snowden Hospice Home would be greatly appreciated by the family. HE AIN’T HEAVY, HE’S OUR BROTHER ….

(Gertrude) Eileen Blais (Gertrude) Eileen Blais, nee Ruckle, born March 3, 1926 and slipped free July 6, 2014. Mom was born on the family homestead in Celista, B.C. with the help of the local midwife, who extracted a promise from our grandfather that if the child were a girl, she would be named after herself, Gertrude Bragg. Our grandfather promised, but swore that the name Gertrude would never pass his lips - and it did not! Our mother grew up to be something of a rebel, and taught us all to be critical thinkers; she was an advocate of social justice long before there was such a term. Also of organic gardening, repurposing and recycling - she had an artist’s eye and skilled hands. When times were tough, and they often were, those talents were put to use. She could look at a much admired outfit in the catalogue and recreate it using an old coat or dress from a rummage sale for fabric; sweaters were unravelled and knit into new; our father’s army issue greatcoat became a pair of work pants worn for many, many years logging in the bush. Mom was the scourge of craft markets; she could walk through, see something she liked, turn it over and over in her hands, and then go home and reproduce it for herself. Likewise, a garden tour would end with wee slips of cuttings being pinched off and tucked in her purse, later to become their own handsome specimens. Her infectious sense of humour often bordered on the absurd, but infectious it was - on more than one occasion, our father walked into the house only to find every female in it doubled over with laughter, tears streaming down our faces, and promptly walked right back out. People watching was a pastime that she engaged in till the end - her observations pithy, insightful, and often terribly funny. Our mother was never shy with an opinion; she was an independent thinker who taught us to act on our beliefs. She was generous to those in need, and despised hypocrisy in all its forms; she made us strong, and we are grateful for that. Her legacy will live on in her children, Marcia Miner (Clint), Ron Blais, Terri Smith (Dan) and Faye Cassia (Jim), grandchildren Tymbre and Tyler Miner, Vanessa (Blais) Wheatley, Jon Bredick, Maitland, Christopher and Logan Cassia, as well as her greatgrandchildren, Dallen, Braydon, Drey, Vienne, Nash, Ashlee, Tristan, Aidan and Deklen. Messages of sympathy may be sent to Eileen’s family by viewing her obituary at www.brandonbowersfuneralhome.com. Cremation arrangements are in the care of Brandon Bowers Funeral Home, Revelstoke.

GLOBAL VIEWS
The caliphate cometh GWYNNE DYER World WATCH something will have to be done about all those Shia Muslims). All of India except the southern tip should be under the rule of the caliph because Muslim invaders also ruled there as minorities for many centuries. Of course, Serbia, Croatia and Hungary will be part of the Islamic State, for the Ottomans conquered all the Balkans up to there. Not to mention half of Africa, and Indonesia, and southwestern Siberia (which was once ruled by the Khanate of Sibir for a century or so). So much for the fantasy. What’s the reality? A group of jihadis have seized a big chunk of eastern Syria and western Iraq, erased the border between them and declared an Islamic State. As little as 10,000 strong only a month ago, they have been rapidly growing in numbers as ISIS’s success attracts new recruits— but, they are obviously never going to recon-
quer India, Spain or Siberia. To the west and east, ISIS is already at war with regimes that are either very tough (Bashar al-Assad’s war-hardened dictatorship in western and central Syria) or very Shia (the southeastern slice of Iraq, densely populated and with a large Shia majority). The Islamic State’s central position between its two enemies gives it a strategic advantage, but not a decisive one. To the south are desert frontiers with more promising territory. Jordan’s population is about two-thirds Palestinian and, even among the Bedouin tribes that are the mainstay of King Abdullah II ibn al-Hussein’s rule there was some enthusiasm for ISIS’s victory in Iraq. If Jordan fell, the Islamic State would reach right up to Israel’s borders, with incalculable consequences. But, even if ISIS gets very lucky, it is unlikely to get farther than that. Egypt blocks its expansion to the west, although the Ansar Bayt al-Maqdis extremists who are active in the Sinai peninsula undoubtedly have some ties with it. Even its direct rivals in the reform-thecaliphate business — the original al-Qaeda, al-Shabab in northeast
Africa, Boko Haram in northern Nigeria and their lesser brethren — are unlikely to accept the ISIS leader as caliph. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who now styles himself Caliph Ibrahim, has clearly been preparing himself for this moment for most of his adult life. He even chose the name of the first caliph, Abu Bakr, as his nom de guerre. His spokesman does not hide his soaring ambition: “We hereby clarify to the Muslims that with this declaration of Khilafah (caliphate), it is incumbent upon all Muslims to pledge allegiance to the Khalifah Ibrahim and support him.” They are not going to do that and the sheer radicalism and intolerance of ISIS’s members make it unlikely their project will survive unaltered for more than a year or so even in the territory that now makes up the Islamic State. Nevertheless, it is extraordinary that the seventh-century caliphate has reappeared even fleetingly in the modern world. George W. Bush and Tony Blair have a lot for which to answer.

“
LISTEN TO your caliph and obey him. Support your state, which grows every day,” said Abu Mohamed al-Adnani, announcing the rebirth of the caliphate in the broad territory between Aleppo in northern Syria and Diyala province in eastern Iraq. It hasn’t actually grown much more in the past couple of weeks, but it certainly intends to go on expanding. The radical Sunni Muslim organization that conquered almost half of Iraq in a whirlwind week at the beginning of June has changed its name. Before, it was ISIS, the Islamic State in Iraq and al-Sham (the old Ottoman province that used to include Syria, Lebanon, Jordan and Israel). Now it wishes to be known simply as the Islamic State — for there can only be one such state and it should include everywhere that Muslims have ever ruled. ISIS propagandists have even produced a map showing the ultimate borders to which their Islamic State lays claim. Spain and Portugal will be part of it because they were ruled by Muslim conquerors during much of the Middle Ages. Iran, too (although

Development a ‘go,’ land-title meeting told CANADIAN PRESS
PRINCE GEORGE — About 100 people crowded into a hall in Prince George for a meeting to consider the effects of a recent court ruling granting land title to the Tsilhqot’in First Nation. Words such as landmark, watershed and game changer, have been applied to the Supreme Court of Canada decision, while policy makers and legal experts agree fallout from the court case will take years to resolve. Panellists, including lawyer Mavis Erickson, told the gathering the decision will not halt resource development, but she warns business and industry must understand they need consent,

Gitxsan evicts CN Rail, others VANCOUVER — Buoyed by a landmark Supreme Court of Canada decision, hereditary chiefs of the Gitxsan First Nations have served eviction notice to CN Rail, logging companies and sport fishermen to leave their lands. Chief negotiator Gwaans Bev Clifton Percival says these companies have until Aug. 4 to cease operations and leave 33,000 square kilometres

of Gitxsan territory along the Skeena River in northwestern British Columbia. Clifton Percival said the band has been trying to negotiate a treaty with the Crown since 2001 but hasn’t made any progress and hasn’t had any negotiations for years. She said timber sales, fishing licenses and rail shipments can continue after the Crown has obtained the consent of their chiefs.

O’Brien search moves to second Calgary dump CANADIAN PRESS
CALGARY — Calgary police have moved to a second garbage dump as they continue their search for a missing boy and his grandparents. Police say the searching of landfills for evidence is routine in missing persons cases like this. Five-year-old Nathan O’Brien and his grandparents Kathryn and Alvin Liknes haven’t been seen since June 29 after what police say was a violent incident in the Liknes home. On Wednesday, a team of seven officers searched the Spyhill dump northwest of the city and now officers

Prairie farmer groups want long-term fix CANADIAN PRESS
REGINA — The head of a Manitoba farmer’s group says Manitoba, Saskatchewan and neighbouring U.S. states need to work together on a long-term solution to flooding. Doug Chorney, with Keystone Agricultural Producers, says it’s one thing if a farmer has too much water on his land, but he says the problem is worse if water is also coming from 100 farms upstream. Chorney suggests there should be more water retention structures to store water and reduce flows during floods. Norm Hall, president of the Agricultural Producers Association of Saskatchewan, says there has been some talk that farmers draining their land in Saskatchewan added to flooding in Manitoba. Hall says many areas hit by torrential rain nearly two weeks ago were already saturated, so the water was going to run downstream to Manitoba. But Hall also says he hopes the recent flooding will open some eyes to the fact that a system-wide plan is needed to better manage the water.
KATHRYN LIKNES custody on unrelated charges and officers continue to look for clues in the area around his family’s property north of Calgary.
Police have renewed a call for rural property owners to check their land for anything that might help in their investigation.

Four dead, one injured after car hits RV in Jasper National Park JASPER — Alberta RCMP say the four people who were killed in a head-on collision in Jasper National Park are from two different countries — neither of them Canada.

Three of the dead were in the car — a 47-year-old man, his 42-year-old wife and their 15-year-old son. A 79-year-old woman who was a passenger in the motorhome was also

Claire Johnson’s first online post chronicling 365 days of her life is personal. Entitled When Life Gives You Lemons, her new daily routine began on May 26, 2013, as part of coping with change. Her husband died, she took over his mobile-home business and she retired from teaching. Amidst it all, the

Kamloops woman bought herself a camera and found a unique way to journal using the online platform Blipfoto. She posts one photo every day with a short passage. Flipping through her entries show ups and downs of her experiences, each picture significant to her day. Views from her deck show Mount Peter and Mount Paul throughout the seasons. Vacation photos show Prince Edward Island and Saskatchewan and others
show how she’s learned to paint. Some posts are closer to the heart — she’s also marked the anniversary of her husband’s death online. “It’s a way of documenting the journey of my life,” she says. “To me, it’s a very personal way to do journaling.” Now, her camera goes with her everywhere and she’s made friends in the online community, with plans to go overseas and visit
some of them. “It’s quite remarkable when you go back and look at a year of your life,” she says. “In my case, it’s quite tumultuous.” She’s continued documenting her life beyond the one-year mark because she says she’s in a reflective time of her life. She’s not sure what tomorrow will bring, but she’ll be there documenting the changes with her camera.

Gallery will upgrade software The Kamloops Art Gallery has received federal funding to update its management system. The money, $5,529, comes from the Museums Assistance Program, which funds Canadian museums and related institutions for improvement projects. The funds will be used to purchase software, multimedia and network upgrades and to migrate information from its old database and train staff how to use the new tools. The gallery will also imple-
ment an online component, allowing for better virtual access to works. The Kamloops Art Gallery was established in 1978 with a collection of more than 1,700 works of art. Curator Charo Neville said the database currently runs on a DOS-based system and the upgrades will allow the gallery to share its collection online. “This assistance will make a world of difference to our operations both internally and externally.”
Local arts groups receive funds for operating costs Two local arts groups have received provincial funding. The Western Canada Theatre Society was allotted $150,000 in B.C. Arts Council grants, with $31,350 going to the Kamloops Symphony Society to assist with operating costs and programming this year. The B.C. Arts Council received $24 million from the government to support arts development. For a list of recipients or more information, go online to bcartscouncil.ca.

NDREA Superstein’s been to Kamloops
before. In fact, the Vancouver-based singer-songwriter has gone through the River City several times, but has never stopped to perform. That drought ends soon as Superstein brings her band up the Coquihalla Highway for tonight’s (July 11) gig at Music in the Park, bringing with her a set full of what she calls indie jazz. “I love jazz,” she said, “but I do other songs that have their
W E E K ’ S
roots in jazz. They’re more accessible than people might expect. “You know, sometimes when someone hears the word jazz they go ‘Oh, I don’t get that.’ “So I do jazz with an indie rock and pop base to it, something they can latch onto.” Mixing covers and original songs, Superstein will change them up, as well. “If I’m doing a jazz standard, I shake it up and do it in a different way. And, if I’m doing a pop cover, I try to jazzily it.” Her own songs are treated in the same way; with her roots in the jazz of the 1920s, she’ll write music that sounds old but lyrics that
M U S I C
address more modern topics. While she’s been known to pick up a ukulele occasionally in a show, Superstein said vocals are her focus. It’s cute and portable, she said, but playing an instrument isn’t really her thing. Her band, however, has hit the road with more than the usual instruments, occasionally bringing an accordion, a melodic and a glockenspiel. For more information on Superstein, go online to andreasuperstein.com, twitter.com/ supersings or facebook. com/pages/AndreaSuperstein. Music in the Park shows start at 7 p.m.

Pro- and anti-pot movements both wrong Illegal marijuana like 1920s prohibition — expensive, unsafe and criminal
T
HIS WEEK, Washington’s legalizedmarijuana era began as legislation allowing the sale of pot came into effect. Naturally, this movement is being considered by governments in jurisdictions across North America and, from time to time, we are asked if this is a good thing or if it will be a long-term problem for the community. Sadly, there is no simple way to respond to this question because of a mixed bag of plusses and minuses affected by many variables that could make impacts of legal marijuana considerably better — or worse. Pro-pot supporters compare pot use to alcohol consumption and argue marijuana is safer.

The truth is — yes it is and no it isn’t, depending on which health variables you compare. Anti-pot movements point to the possibility of pot being a gateway drug to harder, more dangerous drugs. This is a widely held belief among Crown prsecutors who have seen people in front of the courts whose journey seemed to begin with the innocent smoking of a little grass. The truth is that it takes more than marijuana to lead a person down that path. Pro- and anti-pot movements are both wrong, in the sense that they take one-direction-

Many respectable professionals — including some judges, prosecutors and police officers — have participated. We do not need our jails or courts dealing with these types of users because society is not made significantly safer in this pursuit. Legalized marijuana is typically grown under controlled conditions and its potency is known, compared to illicit pot that has been known to kill or harm users from time to time and which can range in potency by such a wide margin that it is impossible for users to know with certainty how much THC they are taking into this system. THC is the active ingredient in marijuana that makes you high. Of biggest concern to the psychiatric interests in this debate is the impact of marijuana use

on developing brains. Brains continue to develop until we reach the age of 25 and marijuana can profoundly impact a growing brain. This is a difficult and conflicting issue and
makes it more important than ever for us to tackle it as a society. Leaving the situation how it is would be a bad idea, but we need to be careful what and how we move forward to a better situation.

Finding history in the dead of Paris By Karoline Cullen FOR TRAVEL WRITERS’ TALES travelwriterstales.com
I
hear a bell. Its persistent peal floats over the trees and echoes off the stones. “Does that ringing mean something?” I ask. My friend starts walking, saying over her shoulder that it’s time to go. “We don’t want to get locked in!” “Definitely not,” I think to myself. Visiting the City of the Dead — as Paris’ largest cemetery Père Lachaise is known — on a sun-dappled afternoon is one thing. Being trapped behind the enormous entrance gates for the night is quite another. When the cemetery was established in 1804 by Napoleon I, it was well outside the city walls. Today the 109-acre site is a five-minute walk from my friend’s apartment in the 20th Arrondisement and a favourite destination for a peaceful, contemplative saunter. As 19th-century novelist Honoré Balzac said, “I rarely go out, but when I do wander, I go to cheer myself up in Père Lachaise.” He is also buried here. Some clever 19thcentury marketing of the perpetual concessions for plots was necessary to attract occupants. As the land was
once owned by Father Francois d’Aix de la Chaise, the Jesuitsounding Père Lachaise was chosen as the cemetery’s name. Remains of some famous dead were relocated for some caché. Twelfth-century illfated lovers Abélard and Héloise are in a neo-Gothic tomb in the oldest section. In 1817, the bones of dramatist Molière and writer La Fontaine were moved here as was Louise de Lorraine, widow of King Henri III. Famous, rich, royal or not, or if you died in Paris, a Père Lachaise plot could be yours.

IF YOU GO:
Address: Père Lachaise Cemetery, 16 Rue du Repos, 75020 Paris, France Metro: Philippe Auguste, Père Lachaise or Gambetta Maps: For directions to notable graves, visit the office. More information: Go online to pere-lachaise.com Tree-lined cobblestone lanes meander amongst thousands of tombs. Some are simple, others grandiose, many in varying degrees of disrepair. Headstones tilt, crypt roofs collapse and gates rust. A jumble of worn, leaning memorials contrasts with the gleaming glass and shiny marble of the new. Stained glass-chapel
windows illuminated by the afternoon sun are counterpoints to the stone walls and dead vines entwined on a chapel door. Blooming shrubs and bright flower bouquets add hits of colour. Thousands of trees create a shady canopy in summer. I am moved by the dramatic monuments to the Second World War deportees and resistants. The statuary is
stark, haunting and brutal. The Mur des Fédérés (Wall of the Federalists), against which 147 Communard insurgents were massacred in 1871, still bears bullet scars. Those shot are buried in a mass grave at its base. While walking amid memorials marking tragedy and death, I unexpectedly find a peacefulness here. There are many
popular “residents” to whom millions pay homage each year. Edith Piaf, the “little sparrow” born in the 20tth Arrondisment, has plenty of long-stemmed red roses left for her. She is just down the hill from Oscar Wilde, who claimed to “be dying beyond his means” in Paris. The plexiglass protecting his tomb is covered with lipstick hearts and kisses. A group of youngsters surreptitiously parties next to the cordoned-off grave of The Doors singer Jim Morrison. Flowers, flags and musical instruments fes-

BC SPCA WARNS ABOUT “HOT DOGS” - Now that it’s summer, the BC SPCA is reminding the public about the hazards of leaving
dogs unattended in parked cars. Hundreds of dogs die needlessly in this way each year. In minutes the temperature in a parked car can reach well over thirty-eight degrees Celsius. Dogs can withstand these temperatures for only about ten minutes before suffering irreparable brain damage or death. For more information, visit the BC SPCA website at www.spca.bc.ca.

Obituaries FABRIS, Paolo (Paul) September 25, 1925 June 29, 2014 Paul was born in Arzene, Italy on September 25th 1925 to Lucia Maniago and Basilio Fabris. Following a long courageous fight with pancreatic cancer, he passed away in Hospice June 29th 2014, surrounded by his loving family. As a young man, Paul played soccer in Italy and France, before immigrating to Canada in 1949. He was a member of the Westminster Royals soccer club, participating in four Canadian Championships and winning Gold Medals in 1953 and 1955. In Vancouver he met his wife Clara, to whom he was married to for over 61 yrs. Sadly she predeceased him in August 2013. Survived by children, Ramo Fabris, Mira Evens (Greg), Rosemarie Fabris (Jamie) & Maxine White. He is also survived by his grandchildren, Diana (Jaap), Michele, Sara, Michael (Andrea), Carla and Stephanie as well as great grandson, Emil & twin boys expected in August. Paul is also survived by his sister Teresa, sister-in-law Louisa & many nieces and cousins in Italy and Canada. Also survived by his friend & dancing partner, Evelyn Schober. Predeceased by his brother Angelo, son in law, James White & infant grandson Matthew Evens. Paul was an avid fisherman, loved gardening & dancing, but his greatest love was his family. Celebration of life will be held on Friday July 18th 11:00 AM at the Roma Hall 940 Ewen Ave, Queensbo-

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
