Man found dead in wake of party scuffle Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

Craig Kelly’s death is just a “sad turn of events,” surmises a woman who lives kitty corner to the downtown Kelowna home where his body was found Saturday morning. Following a Friday night party, police were called to the 1300 block of Ethel Street when residents realized their friend, 21, who had crashed the night before on the couch, was dead. Police attended the scene, and issued a press release calling the event the subject of an investigation. Kelly’s death is THEY WERE deemed “suspicious” and could be related to a FriWRESTLING day night fight. AROUND, FROM “They were wrestling WHAT THE KIDS around. From what the TELL ME, IT WAS kids tell me, it was nothing serious,” said Diane NOTHING SERIOUS. Williams. Diane Williams “There was an argument (between Kelly and a 22-year-old friend) but the guys made up. (Kelly) complained about having difficulty breathing, and they chocked it up to the humidity, so he went to bed, but didn’t wake up.” In the hours that followed the realization that Kelly was dead, there was neighbourhood speculation that the house was a party mecca, the source of area problems, and at worst, “a crackhouse,” said Williams. All those concepts, she said, are far from the truth. “There are parties there. But all the guys who live there, work all week long, and don’t party until Friday and Saturday,” she said. “Things don’t usually get out of control, if they’re too loud, we let them know and they shut it down.” And that night was no different, although Williams said there were teenagers wandering through Stockwell Avenue, kicking fences and creating a general stir. Those ruffians, she said, even went so far as to van-

Local firm gets $7.5m contract from GM Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

A Kelowna solar power commercial installations firm has been awarded a $7.5 million contract from General Motors Ventures. The deal between GM and Sunlogics PLC was

inked on Aug. 1, to develop the automaker’s electric car production infrastructure. Sunlogics, which has an office in Kelowna, has experience developing and operating solar commercial installations in Canada, the United States and Europe.

For Michael Matvieshen, CEO of Sunlogics, all the hard work is finally paying off. “It’s nice to be part of something that’s really taken off. It’s been a long haul,” said Matvieshen. Matvieshen has been in the solar industry since 2002. He admitted that

this is by far the greatest moment of his entrepreneurial career. “Having General Motors as a shareholder kind of takes you out of the pack of all the other solar companies. It’s phenomenal,” he said. “The money is nice, but the relationship is bet-

ter. It’s a different business in that the stability is significantly higher. It’s not as speculative anymore.” Sunlogics is an international company with engineering done in Canada, the United States, See Contract A9

NEWS ▼ COURT

Kelowna cop gets conditional sentence for beating estranged wife Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

It’s time for the RCMP to step up to the plate and better deal with members who go off the rails, says a woman who recently fell victim to a violent outburst from her estranged cop-husband. “They (the RCMP) created a monster,” she said outside the courthouse where Staff Sergeant Owen Wlodarczak, 41, received a three year conditional sentencing for the charges of assault and careless use of a firearm. “With what he’s seen, and what he’s been through…they need to do more. They need to take into account what’s happening with their members.” Officers who show signs of distress do have ample access to psychologists, psychiatrists and counsellors, but the woman said treatment needs to be mandated because her estranged husband wouldn’t have gone for help without being forced to do so. For her, it meant the accumulation of stress

was dumped on their family, which didn’t have the tools to cope. The woman, whose name is protected by a publication ban, was punched in the head eight to 10 times last May by Wlodarczak, as his two young children stood by. “She’s going to take you away,” he said while hitting her, according to court documents. Later, while his family stood by, he grabbed his police-issue gun, held it up to his head and said, “You did this to me, woman.” The family escaped, police were called to the scene and Wlodarczak was taken into custody with no resistance. He pleaded guilty to the charges levied against him. The couple, which had been together since 1996, had watched their relationship disintegrate since the middle of 2010, when Wlodarczak expressed disinterest in the relationship and they separated. Conditions became more strained until that May afternoon, when a conversation about sole custody brought him to the tipping point which

he claimed to regret. “I’m profoundly sorry for what happened,” said Wlodarczak during sentencing, noting his ex-wife and children deserved better. “I would never hurt anyone…I wish (my wife) and I had gone our separate ways two to three years ago and didn’t drag this drama on.” He added that he wanted to go back to being a “good man” and working with the RCMP, assuming they’ll take him back from the suspension levied on him at the time of the incident. According to Justice Vincent Hogan, Wlodarczak’s record as a good man was taken into account at sentencing. “This is one of those situations where the circumstances are frightening and dangerous and generated by someone who should have known better…but we don’t ignore the credit ledger,” he said, referencing the good work done over Wlodarczak’s career. Hogan went on to say that the challenge of figuring out what to do when good people do bad things is most pronounced

when he’s presented with family dynamics. “For most of us, the worst people we will meet will be in our own family,” he said. “Family violence is a sad and steady part of our society…we need to stop acting hysterically when our emotions are involved.” Hogan approved a three year conditional discharge for Wlodarczak. It means, assuming he adheres to the conditions set, he will not have a criminal record. The conditions of sentence entail keeping the peace and staying one kilometre away from his family, unless family court says otherwise. Wlodarczak is barred from bars, liquor stores and other areas where alcohol is the main course. He’s also not allowed to have firearms, unless he’s working. That means he must surrender his gun to a superior at the end of each shift if he’s reinstated with the RCMP. “I hope what you said is sincere,” said Hogan. “I hope all of you (in the gallery) go back to your homes and try to be loving to each other.”

▼ APPEAL DENIED

Court says jaywalkers not totally responsible for their actions Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER

Motorists who find it difficult to navigate local streets criss-crossed by meandering tourists had best beware—a recent decision from the B.C. Court of Appeal has added a layer of protection to jaywalkers. A court panel upheld a previous ruling that a driver who hit a jaywalker at

a busy Kelowna intersection was 40 per cent to blame because the accident occurred in an area where it’s the norm to disobey traffic rules—north of the Rutland and Leathead Road intersection. The case dates back to Sept. 12, 2002, when motorcyclist Leslie Plummer, an assistant teacher, hit Shaun Daniel Walter, then 16, colliding with Walter after he crossed

three traffic lanes and stepped out from in front of a large truck that had stopped for a red light. Plummer, at the same time, drove around him, moving into the righthand turning lane. Plummer, who was driving at 40 km/h in a 50 km/h zone, braked for at least 0.2 seconds when Walker came into view from around the truck, and unsuccessfully attempted

to avoid hitting him. After the motorcycle struck Walter, Plummer went down and the motorcycle slid and tumbled for some distance before coming to rest on top of Plummer. Walter was thrown into the air and landed near a sewer grate on the west side of Rutland Road. While a judge found that the young man shouldn’t have been jay-

walking—he was assigned 60 per cent of the blame —Plummer’s judgement of the road conditions put her in a unique position. “To proceed at 40 kilometres per hour passing a stationary truck in an area known to be frequented by jaywalking students is negligent,” said Justice Barrow, at the time a decision was delivered. “It is a situation in which a driver ought to

have been proceeding in an ‘alerted’ state, to borrow from the categories used in the perception-response studies,” said the trial judge. Challenging Barrow’s findings, Plummer filed an appeal, claiming the young man should bear full responsibility for his injuries and the trial judge made “palpable and overriding errors in his findings of facts and held her

to an inordinately high standard of care.” In particular, Plummer argued the judge erred in determining the point of impact and in finding that she should have anticipated anyone would jaywalk where the accident occurred. The B.C. Court of Appeal did not agree, however, in upholding Barrow’s original decision. kmichaels@kelownacapnews.com

tion and donates a portion of the proceeds from the pancake breakfast to their cause. “We approached all the charity groups that we could find on this side of the lake to see if they’d be willing to partner with us,” said Hart. “It’s a little commitment on their part too: They have to send out a minimum of three volunteers to help us out. “It does two things: It gets them out in front of the community in a different way, and it also gives them a chance to know more about who we are and what we do, instead of us just sending them a cheque.”

Already this summer the Westbank Lions Club has helped out the Boys and Girls Club, Habitat for Humanity, a local thrift shop and, most recently, Gellatly Nut Farm. Carl Zanon, past president of Gellatly Nut Farm, said that the outdoor market is a win-win situation for both local non-profit organizations and the Westbank Lions Club. “We arrive at 6:30 a.m., set up the tents, put up equipment and help serve,” said Zanon. Zanon said while the profits are helpful, the exposure and awareness is equally valuable. According to its web-

The three must also abstain from consuming drugs and alcohol and cannot possess any weapons, or have them in their presence.

hind an iPhone game created right here in the Okanagan, he’s hoping his product’s similarity to FarmVille, Flight Control and Angry Birds nets just enough spillover clientele to build the momentum necessary to top the App Store download list on iTunes. “It’s like you’ve got the game, but that’s

kind of the beginning of the problem,” he said. “Somehow you have to tell people about it.” Crop Duster, as the game is called, uses small plans to grow and cultivate crops. It was released on the iTunes Store earlier this month, and has seen over 1000 downloads, largely due to a guerilla social marketing campaign conducted from his small office, and contacts with blogs like Dubious Quality (http://dubiosquality. blogspot.com).

In the lead-up to the 2010 Olympics, the company, ITS Kelowna.com, had a Whistler iPhone application that made it to number six on the top paid applications list. But, Walczak admits entering the competitive gaming market without a hook, like Whistler’s name recognition, will make this run tougher. “It’s not like we can go out and buy a frontpage story wherever we go,” he said. “So we’re just trying to figure it out.” That said, they do have a game plan. Harvesting a little shine off the golden glow of people like FarmVille’s founder, Mark Pincus (and his roughly $10 billion and 250 million users), for example, should give Crop Duster a head-start; although Walczak said he and fellow developer Timothy Czyrnyj also really wanted to build a product they could be proud of as gamers. “We’re the Nintendo generation. We’re the demographic that all of these games are written for, so we just made a game that we would want to play,” he said. Joined by local graphic artist Sarah Gerber, who gave the game’s story a kid-friendly face, Crop Duster thus leans heavily on the Okanagan’s agricultural roots for inspiration, and includes its creators’ favourites—a flying component and a Farmville-style build-out. Walczak’s neighbours are pilots, and after helping test-run the game, both earned themselves a character.

Throw in a Phil the Waterbomber and Dusty the Crop Duster and one has the complete Crop Duster complement of characters; just choose a plane for an opportunity to sew your own oats—or corn or hay or whatever the crop of choice may be—in a field of dreams its creators are hoping yields big returns.

hitting a fast growth curve, it’s the ideal place to be.” GM isn’t the only big company that is interested in doing business with Sunlogics. “We have a pretty good relationship with Energizer right now. I’m very excited about that because that allows you to start participating in the infrastructure for the electric vehicle around the world.” The industry of the electric car is one that Matvieshen is convinced will grow significantly in the near future. “The electric car is going to become mainstream. Everybody is starting to produce them. “(People are) looking

for something that’s more environmentally friendly and more cost-effective to operate. It’s the economics that will drive it.” Matvieshen said that he isn’t letting his joy get in the way of business,

because now, more than ever, there is a lot of work to be done. “Now it’s time to perform. It’s a different kind of stress, though. It’s one thing having stress to survive, it’s another thing having stress to execute. I’d rather have the stress to execute.” No matter how fast the business grows, Matvieshen is confident that Kelowna will remain his home. “I moved here 21 years ago, so I’ve been here a long time. I like it here. My kids were born here and they’re going to university here. “I don’t have any intentions of moving.” wpaterson@kelownacapnews.com

Acquaintances of victim struggling to deal with loss of a friend Party from A1 dalize the area church, but they weren’t tied to the house party. Police said they also don’t view the home as a risk to area residents. “Police had been to the residence only once previously, for a noncriminal issue. We don’t know anything about the residents or their social behaviours,” said Const. Steve Holmes, in a media release. That, however, isn’t the focus of the friends and family Kelly left behind. “They’re hanging in there,” said Williams, referring to brief conversations she had with the residents the day Kelly’s body was found, and what she’s read on a Facebook memorial page. “They’re just bewildered right now…. They’re in shock, and a lot of pain.” Kelly, said Williams, was well loved and, from the little she knew of him, a good kid. “He always had bright eyes, a big smile and lots of great ink, which I like,” she said.

Preserving a voice for children

t would be very unfortunate if the all-party committee discussing the appointment of the province’s representative for children and youth does not agree to keep Mary Ellen Turpel-Lafond in the role. Turpel-Lafond, a First Nations woman from Saskatchewan who is a former judge, has done an excellent job in what is a very difficult and highlystressful job. It is her job to let the light shine in cases of child neglect, child deaths and other truly disturbing incidents in-

volving children. As an independent officer of the B.C. legislature, her role is to make the situations public and suggest solutions. Turpel-Lafond, as both an aboriginal woman and former judge, has unique skills which put her in a good position to speak up about this. Her background is a real help in this position. Far too many of the children who are in foster care in B.C. are First Nations children—a much higher proportion than the First Nations share

of B.C.’s population. It is important to remember that the initial suggestion of an independent children’s commissioner came out of the inquiry presided over by Judge Thomas Gove. The NDP government followed through on the recommendation. The B.C. Liberals abolished the position in 2002, shortly after they first came to power, but created the independent representative’s office after Ted Hughes was asked to report on what was becom-

ing a serious problem involving children in care. Turpel-Lafond took the new position in 2006. While she has made politicians squirm on many occasions, she is doing so because she is speaking on behalf of children, families and the general public. These children need an independent voice. They will never get that by relying solely on the existing child welfare system. Turpel-Lafond has demonstrated that she is truly independent.

When choice is an option who decides who lives, who dies?

f you had a pet that was in pain from an illness that had no cure, there are many in this country who would consider you cruel if you did not help the animal end its suffering. But if it is a person with a painful terminal illness, aiding, abetting or even counselling that person about suicide, even at the sick person’s request, is a crime. And doing so could land you in jail for as long as 14 years. It’s little wonder that many assisted-suicide activists feel we treat our pets better than we treat their owners when it comes to end of life issues. The thorny question of wheth-

When death comes, the person’s body, in essence, collapses around a fully healthy, functioning brain. But getting to that point is a horrifyingly painful journey.

Whether Taylor wins or loses her appeal to die with dignity, she should also be considered a hero to the many who want that right . The time has come for Canada to allow the terminally ill to legally end their lives with the help of a physician. After all, whose life is it anyway?

Comments from the Web on smart meters To the editor: RE: Intelligence of New Smart Meters Being Questioned, Aug. 4 Capital News. The only things wrong with smart meters are the health problems, the home security risks, the personal information hacking risks, the electrical interference problems, the electrical fire problems, the huge financial costs to customers, the false promises that energy will be saved, the time and money wasted not moving towards valid improvements in energy usage and conservation and the violations of people’s privacy in their own homes. The good things about smart meters are the huge number of jobs that will be lost and the extra billions of dollars paid to utility companies. Robert Williams, Recent Comments on www.kelownacapnews.com To the editor: 20 Reasons “smart” meters are not smart. 1. Meters will produce dangerous radio frequencies (RF) emissions. Unless we stop them, as of July 2011, BC Hydro will install on all buildings “smart” meters (SMs), that emit biologically harmful radiation-emitting radio frequencies (RF.) They will transmit usage data (hydro, gas, water), and will control customer access to services remotely. 2. Canada’s RF “safety” code is grossly insufficient. Government exposure limits do not acknowledge or protect against known health effects. 3. 24-7 radiation emissions. 4. RF emissions are invisible. Consumers cannot control these invisible emissions, and without our own RF meters, only BC Hydro will know the degree of harm we’re being exposed to. 5. Health Canada’s own studies confirm harm. 6. Weight of evidence. Weight of evidence calculations are biased with industry ‘science’ included so

the results are diluted (fox guarding the henhouse?) Most non-industry studies indicate harm. Most industry studies indicate no harm. 7. Canada’s wireless health warnings are tragically behind. Bombay, Germany, Switzerland, Australia, Liechtenstein, Russia, Israel, Belgium, and the United Kingdom warnings and restrictions are light years ahead of Canada’s. 8. Privacy invasion 9. RF soup grows as marketers mine our “electrical diaries.” SM data enables ‘Sci-Fi’ marketing targeted according to purchase/usage habits. Transmitters are being designed into everything from our dishwashers to our cereal boxes. 10. Security Wireless and electronic systems are error prone. 11. Human Rights Commission (CHRC) The CHRC assures all persons healthful access to, “goods, services, facilities or accommodation customarily available to the general public.” Yet 265,000 to 663,000 B.C. citizens (6-15 per cent) have electro hypersensitivity) and are sickened by wireless pollution. 12. Rates of electro sensitivity will increase in our population. 13. Health and financial cost to citizens. 14. Dirty electricity- i.e.: harmonic distortion. The required power conversion causes harmonic distortion within electrical systems. This ‘dirty electricity’ is also linked to substantial increases in cancer rates. 15. Undemocratic non-consensual to exposure. SM radiation exposure is non-consensual. Most RF exposures (household or personal digital devices) are optional. The imposition of this hazard via an essential service is undemocratic. 16. Information withheld from the public.

One in two Canadians will develop cancer (Canadian Cancer Society) The World Health Organization lists RF as a “possible carcinogen” and thousands of studies support this. 17. Billing surges. Ontario SMs are costing billing increases averaging 80 per cent. In California over 1,600 faulty SMs were recalled. Some even triggered garage door openers or motiondetectors to operate, causing surges in hydro use. 18. Fire risk. Arc-fault circuit interrupters have caused explosions and fires. 19. Opt out program. Fails to control exposure from neighbours’ meters or the neighbourhood WiMax towers. 20. Conservation and efficiency. Let’s spend the billion on renewables, not remotely activated brown out option. Wifry, Recent Comments on www.kelownacapnews.com To the editor: Re: Intelligence of new smart meters being questioned Aug. 4 Capital News. Excellent article. And a big thanks to the Green Party for having the courage to say what the other parties are afraid of saying— don’t want to offend the corporations. Where is the NDP while we are left to fight this battle on our own. Why should we have to lock up our meters? Fear that if we leave our home for a vacation the meter will appear without our consent? Is this not a democracy? The government is saying shut up and pay. The only thing green about $mart meter$ is the profit the corporations are making. We can stop this if we demand it. Demand an election. Sharon N Recent Comments on www.kelownacapnews.com

knew it was coming. He had prepared a statement for the press in advance. “It is a distinct pleasure for me to announce,” he said, “that Canadian scientists have played an intimate part, and have been associated in an effective way with this great scientific development.” Three days after Hiroshima, a plutonium bomb destroyed Nagasaki. Canada’s prime minister at the time, Mackenzie King, reflected: “It is fortunate that the use of the bomb should have been upon the Japanese rather than upon the white races of Europe.” For 20 years after Hiroshima, Canada sold plutonium produced in Chalk River reactors, to the American military for weapons production. Like all “civilized’ countries, Canada has signed the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. But

Canada helped India get the bomb in 1974 and, as a member of NATO, even supports that organization’s policy of “first-use” of nuclear weapons. The Non-proliferation Treaty’s obvious flaw is that it legitimizes nuclear weapons for some nations and forbids them to others. Working arm-inarm with the U.S. military leaves Canada’s peaceful, non-nuclear image embarrassingly threadbare. Aside from the close link between nuclear power and nuclear weapons, the unfolding (tsunami and resulting nuclear power plant meltdown) disaster in Fukushima, Japan should wake us all from our dream of “safe” uses of nuclear technology. It is easier to look back at history than to confront current crises. By becoming a member of Mayors for Peace, the City of Ke-

lowna has committed to the principal of total abolition of nuclear weapons. The ban on uranium mining in B.C is likewise a positive step. But unless the citizens of Kelowna (and the world) develop a political movement strong enough to drastically cut back mil-

Hypocritical policy on nuclear non-proliferation To the editor: Sixty-six years ago the mushroom clouds over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, one of the most horrific events in human history, announced the beginning of the Nuclear Age. Now Fukushima has joined the list of Japanese places everyone knows. It is time to reflect on Canada’s nuclear past and ask ourselves what kind of future we want. There is nothing honorable about Canada’s role in nuclear history. It began with conscription of Dene people from Deline, NWT, to transport uranium ore on their backs to be “enriched” for the first bombs. When C.D. Howe heard, on August 6, 1945, that a uranium bomb had destroyed the city of Hiroshima, he was not surprised. As minister responsible for Canada’s part in the Second World War’s atomic bomb project, he

senting various levels of government who contributed to making the brand what it is today gathered in the Laurel Packinghouse to celebrate the rich farming tradition behind the label. “We are part of the heritage of the Okanagan Valley and that’s something we’re very proud of,” said Gary Schieck, B,C. Tree Fruits CEO. Acknowledging the industry is in the midst of serious challenges, Shieck said it was interesting to review the history of the industry in preparation for this diamond anniversary celebration and see how history repeats itself. He pointed to the growers’ strike of the 1950s as an example of the strife orchardists have dealt with over the years in trying to produce and sell food in economic climates that are not always receptive. On July 21, 1936, after several rounds of struggles for farmers B.C. Tree Fruits was developed as a central means for growers to sell and market their product. The decade before, orchardists had started to develop cooperatives to prevent bumper crops from lowering prices to an extent that the farmer could not survive, and by the 1930s those co-ops were

Liquor distillery dream realized r I ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT

Joel Young share with his family and friends. The distilling industry began to excite Urban while still employed in the electronics industry. That enthusiasm led to begin longing to test himself in the entrepreneurial pathway. Talking with him at his Kelowna distillery, warehouse and retail outlet, Urban recalled that it took a trip to a cognac distillery in France to absolutely convince him that this was the entrepreneurial spirit that he wished to embrace. Urban began to meticulously research his new field of interest in distillery venture development. He contacted and visited alcohol processors in U.S. and Europe, and enrolled in several relevant educational programs in the U.S.. Eventually in 2010, he made the decision to devote his full-time efforts to design an Okanagan distillery that would be housed in Kelowna. Once Urban completed his first business plan, he was able to achieve assistance from Community Futures to provide for his Urban Distilleries business launch on Jan. 15, 2011. Since then, Urban Distilleries has brought a new excitement to the valley landscape through the

“

must admit that I am continuously amazed at the calibre and uniqueness of the genuine entrepreneurs that I meet and interview for my Capital News column each week. Last week, I had the pleasure of interviewing a young man who challenged himself to create a business opportunity from a passion that he enjoyed for a number of years while he continued his education and work experience. Please join me in this story as we take a close look at how this Okanagan entrepreneur brought his spirit to life. Born in Medicine Hat with a father who operated a retail venture for a number of years, Mike Urban neared the completion of his electrical engineering degree in 1998 from NAIT in Alberta. The workplace drew Urban and he quickly began his working experiences with Shaw Cable here in the Okanagan. That was followed until 2005 with working with several electronics industry companies that honed his skills not only in the industry itself but also to the world of venture creation, operation and management. As many people will testify, personal hobbies and passions evolve from many starts and sometimes when least expected. Urban began his journey in alcohol distilling literally at the home table where he would experiment with a multitude of recipes challenging himself to produce a safe, enjoyable product he could

creation of a small batch micro-distillery producing signature Spirit Bear vodka and gin products with rum and rye along the way targeted for 201112. What I particularly enjoyed in my discussion recently with Urban and his team is the preciseness of the processing of their alcohol products—each batch being handcrafted in an artesian copper still from premium grains and meticulously filtered spring water—using local materials, something urban is very proud of. The Urban product line is currently being marketed in various locations in western Canada while new product development is underway, such as for a coffee-infused vodka. This means I can have a coffee and a jolt at the same time, does it not? Just kidding, folks. Mike’s Urban Distill-

ery location is 6-325 Bay Ave. in Kelowna. I highly recommend that you stop by to tour, taste and explore their retail sales bar. The experience is memorable as you will become enchanted with Mike Urban’s entrepreneurial spirit and his commitment to raising awareness of the plight of B.C.’s depleted White Kermode Bear population, the inspiration for his Spirit Bear brand titles. Great job Mike, and yes your vodka is very smooth, in my mind surpassing at least two other premium brands that you will see on liquor store shelves. Joel Young is an entrepreneurial leadership educator, consultant and founder of the Okanagan Valley Entrepreneurs Society.

Sears celebrates its history at Orchard Park mall O

Maxine DeHart

ne of the first tenants to move into Orchard Park Shopping Centre, Sears celebrates its 40th anniversary in Kelowna this month. Going back 40 years, Karns White was the store manager; Carl Herbert, merchandise manager; Bob Petty, credit manager and Roger Percival, store superintendent. The store has evolved over the years, with furniture and appliances now in the Sears Home outlet located within a separate store in the mall. You can still get a famous Sears Catalogue with 24/7 shopping, while Sears parts, product and repair service is still going strong. The store is having a birthday party celebration on Saturday, Aug. 13, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., with surprise draws and, of course, cake and lots of 40 per cent off specials. Everyone is welcome. Brian Tull is the current store manager. Nick Austin, Kim Cameron and Terry Meeres are the assistant managers. Call 250-860-3682. Tom Orchard, owner/operator of the Ridge Rocket Café at Big White Ski Resort, has opened the World Eats restaurant

at the World Beat Family Golf Centre, 625 Old Vernon Rd. The restaurant is open seven days a week, 7 a.m. to 4 p.m., for breakfast and lunch until the end of October. The restaurant serves great food, from an unbelievable Italian omelet made with Orchard’s own famous bolognese sauce, to his homemade oven-baked deep fried—yes, deep fried—cheesecake. There is a good variety of lunch menu items with 35 seats inside and 36 outside. Call 778-753-5521. Contrary to rumours about Fabricland Kelowna being sold, it’s not true. The local Fabricland is a corporate store owned by Warren Kimmell, of Toronto. The franchises that were sold are the Penticton and Vernon stores, both of which will reopen shortly under new ownership. Lillian Tracanelli is the manager of the Kelowna store and Marg Wensley is the assistant manager. Call 8602455. Couple of new faces at Astral Media. James Moore, who came from The Juice, is joining AM 1150 as their weekend news anchor/reporter. He will be working the news desk on the weekends and will be reporting during the week as well as covering off for vacation relief in the newsroom.

hen it comes to the health of your heart, both the heart itself and your blood vessels, sticky and stiff means trouble.

We all know someone who has heart disease and fears for their life. Heart disease can be as benign as not having enough energy to walk up the stairs, or taking frequent stops when shopping to catch your breath and get your legs to stop hurting. Heart disease can be as sudden as a massive heart attack where you die within minutes, or as slow as decades of lost independence from a stroke that forces you to slur your speech and drag along an arm The Heart or leg. Whether heart disease takes you by inches or all at once it is Right Left Atrium Atrium a tragedy for you and your whole family. Left Ventricle

Heart disease can be managed and even prevented. Drugs are important Right for treating heart disease, but they Ventricle do little to prevent it. Making good lifestyle choices, like stopping smoking and eating low salt unprocessed foods, will help you to treat or even prevent heart disease. Effective natural treatments for heart disease include heart supporting nutritional supplements and herbal formulas. Before you start worrying about treating heart disease wouldn’t it be great to just get tested? To know how sticky your blood and cholesterol are, and your real risk of blocking an artery? To know how stiff and brittle your blood vessels are, and what your real risk of a stroke is? The good news is that I have effective medical tests that will tell you how sticky and stiff you are. I have used medical heart tests with many patients over the years to figure out what action plan they need to take charge of their heart health. I use specific tests for blood stickiness and CardioVision© testing for blood vessel stiffness. If you or members of your family have a risk of heart disease get tested, know for sure, and get the natural treatments that will give you the best health possible. NEW PATIENT SPECIAL: Every new patient that I see in the month of August 2011 who has a risk of heart disease will receive a CardioVision blood vessel stiffness test, (an $85 value), at NO CHARGE.

Local swimmer and our neighbour, Kierra Smith, will be part of the Canadian Team headed to the Pan American Games in Guadalajara, Mexico, from Oct. 15 to 22. Kierra earned her spot on the team because of her success at the Canadian Summer Nationals last week, returning from Montreal after 11 days of racing. The first week she competed in the Canadian senior Long Course Championships in Pointe Claire and her best result was a silver medal in the 100m breast stroke. The following week at the Canadian Age Group Championships, she won three gold medals and one bronze. Next up for her is the Western Canada Games in Kamloops, Aug. 11 to 15. Whether it’s bubbly on the beach or just a cold beverage, nothing will chill your drink faster or with more style than the new “Bevy Bag.” Created by local physics professor Peter Schultz, these wonderful bags will cool a bottle of wine to a perfect drinking temperature in just 12 minutes, as opposed to an hour in the freezer or many more than that in the refrigerator. These bags are stylish and can be put on any casual table, holding one bottle as a cooler. All you do is put a few inches of ice into the Bevy Bag, fill it to just above the ice with cold water and push the beverage bottle into the mix. They have a super carrying handle so you can transport your beverages wherever you go. Bevy Bags can be ordered with a plain front or a company logo or picture. My favourite is the “signature series” art bags with Alex Fong originals on the front. Perfect for a personal or corporate gift.

NEWS â&#x2013;ź FILM INDUSTRY

Funding plan offered to boost Okanagan location shoots Lights. Camera Money. The province is giving the Okanagan Film Commission $30,000 as part of a $275,000 funding plan to help regional organizations attract and provide services to film and video producers from around the world. And the money is being welcomed by the man whose job it is to sell this area as a location for the next blockbuster. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have Flicka 3 shooting in September and No Tell Motel started Aug. 3,â&#x20AC;? said regional film commissioner Jon Summerland. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Both of these are here because we had the money to entice them here.â&#x20AC;? Summerland said another company, Bardel Animation Studios, is planning to set up an animation studio in the region, an operation that is expected to hire hundreds of people over the next few years. B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s film industryâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; nicknamed Hollywood Northâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is the third largest in North America after Los Angeles and New York and provides thousands of jobs across the province, including hundreds here in the Okanagan. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a vital part of our economy and funding like this allows it to keep growing,â&#x20AC;? said BoundarySimilkameen MLA John Slater. In 2010, motion picture and television producers spent more than $1 billion in B.C. About 90 per cent of productions use the services of the B.C. Film Commission, including regional film commissions and offices such as the Okanagan Film Commission. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This investment goes a long way and will help a lot of people,â&#x20AC;? said Westside-Kelowna MLA Ben Stewart. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The next two films going into production in the Okanagan mean 190 jobs over the length of the shoots and a lot of economic benefits to hotels, restaurants and other businesses.â&#x20AC;? B.C.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s film production industry directly and indirectly employs more than 25,000 people and according to the government, British Columbians working in the industry earned wages totalling $450 million last year. In addition to the latest funding, the provincial government also provides between $130 million and

BUSINESS ▼ INTERNATIONAL FISCAL REPORTING STANDARDS

Impact of global accounting methods felt in stock prices I nternational Financial Reporting Standards is a principle-based set of accounting standards designed to improve the comparability of financial statements internationally. The goal is to develop a single set of high quality global accounting standards that are understandable and that improve the transparency of financial reporting on the various capital markets of the world (stock exchanges). These standards were adopted in Canada for any year ending in the 2011 calendar year for a publicly traded company meaning a company listed on a stock exchange. Early adoption of these standards was encouraged and some companies did opt for the early adoption. The European Union ad-

Be sure to contact

opted these standards beginning in 2005 and the USA still uses their own FASB standards that Gabriele are now heaviBanka ly influenced by IFRS. Due to this early adoption, we can now begin to see the differences between IFRS and Canadian GAAP standards on the comparison of financial ratios when evaluating whether to invest in a particular stock. Some of the major differences between Canadian GAAP and IFRS are that IFRS uses a principal based approach to selecting accounting methods and estimates rather than a rule approach and fair value accounting is used rather than a historical cost approach. There are more notes required to explain the computation of the fair values on the financial statements and an

BEHIND THE COUNTER

additional statement called Statement of Comprehensive Income is required. This statement resembles an income statement generated using fair values and shows the effect of unrealized gains and losses caused by the fair value adjustments made in the statements. At the bottom of the report is listed the effect of the unrealized gains and losses that were not adjusted for in the statements. There is another significant difference with the consolidation of an entity that has minority interest shareholders. With IFRS the income allocated to minority shareholders are recognized as equity where previously it was recorded as an income statement expense or a liability in Canada. Financial ratios are based on accounting information and are widely used by investors, bankers, brokers and anyone who needs to analyze the financial condition or performance of a company.

These ratios are usually categorized into four main types—liquidity, leverage, coverage and profitability. Examples of the liquidity ratios are the Current or Quick ratio. A leverage ratio is the debt ratio, the equity ratio or the debt to tangible net worth ratio. Coverage ratios are interest coverage, fixed charge coverage and cash flow coverage. Profitability ratio examples are return on asset, return on equity, gross profit margin, net profit margin, asset turnover and price earnings ratio. The application of fair value accounting under IFRS may cause balance sheet figures to be adjusted, some gains and losses to be directly allocated to the income statement and other gains and losses will only show up under other comprehensive income and the effect of these gains and losses will not immediately be realized. Fair value accounting will affect all categories of financial ratios. The application of IFRS

to consolidations will change the way that profits are allocated to minority interest shareholders which will directly affect the profitability ratios. Measurement of long lived assets are based on management’s judgment on the useful life of an asset and the asset is required to be tested for impairment. Depending on the change in professional judgment, leverage and profitability ratios could be affected. Long lived liabilities such as leases or pensions may be required to be classified differently in IFRS where they may need to be classified as equity rather than long term liabilities. This reclassification would also affect the leverage and profitability ratios. In a document recently published by CGA Canada, senior executives were surveyed to determine what effect they thought the adoption of IFRS would have on the financial statements. Most indicated that asset

values would increase, pension liabilities would increase, net income would decrease, earnings per share would decrease and goodwill would decrease. Investors are cautioned when comparing ratios from IFRS prepared statements with those prepared under Canadian GAAP as the results could be significantly different and be incomparable. One solution may be to convert the Canadian GAAP results to IFRS before comparing ratios, but that may be an expensive solution. With the adoption of comprehensive income the ROE and ROA ratios should be recalculated with the use of comprehensive income as the numerator to get the effect of the unrealized gains and losses not on the income statement.

I am on medication to help manage my high blood pressure. Are there any precautions with exercise that I should be taking?

Your blood pressure medication may or may not have implications on the structure of your exercise program. It depends on the medication(s) you have been prescribed. It is important to understand the medication’s effect on your health and exercise routine. If you are experiencing symptoms with exercise such as lightheadedness or fatigue it would be recommended to have a needs assessment completed by a qualified exercise professional. This assessment should include a review of your current health status, medications and exercise tolerance. Having your heart rate, oxygen saturation and blood pressure responses assessed through a monitored exercise session can provide you a wealth of information. Information of whether your physiological responses are within normal range, confirm that you are performing an adequate warmup and cool down and an efficient training routine to receive optimal cardiovascular benefit.

What are the beneﬁts of advertising my business or services in “Ask the Experts”?

Newspapers are used to plan purchases, either for an immediate need or a future purchase. While the economy might have changed the way Canadians shop, one thing that hasn’t changed is the tool that they use to make their shopping decisions. Most adults identify newspapers as the way they use to plan shopping or make purchasing decisions. Secondly, newspapers ads are WELCOMED! In other media, ads are actively avoided. Newspaper is one of the few types of media where readers indicate that they want the ads. Newspapers score higher than T.V., Radio and the Internet in terms of Canadians. Lastly, newspaper readers take action, over 10 million Canadians read a newspaper on an average weekday. But they don’t just read the paper, they are moved to action based on the advertising contained in it.

HOME INSPECTION MYTHS Part 3

Having misquided beliefs about home inspection services can lead to poor buying processes & suspect ﬁnal decisions. Craig Hostland, of Pillar to Post, North America’s leading provider of home-inspection services, offers responses to some of the most common myths about home inspection.

Myth: You don’t have to bother getting a home inspected if it’s being sold “as is.” Fact: A home sold “as is” or under a court ordered sale should certainly be inspected, so you, the buyer, know exactly what “as is” means. These homes aren’t being sold free of defects, only with any defects left unrepaired. Otherwise, regulations require the seller to disclose known defects or other conditions that could affect the value or salability of the home, but impose no further obligation – at your risk. Qualiﬁed home inspectors conduct a thorough visual inspection of major elements of a home and check items for function. The more qualiﬁed the inspector the more knowledge you can gain about the home and its systems, before you buy it.

How do I price my home to sell?

Market conditions are constantly changing. Hire an experienced agent to represent you. A REALTOR® is trained to establish value by completing a market evaluation of your home. Look at recent sales and comparables to ﬁnd out what a buyer is willing to pay in today’s market. Weight the differences between the comparables and your home. Put yourself in a buyer’s position, whereby they are faced with many homes meeting their criteria – how does your home measure up to the competition? Would you buy your home? With the aid of an experience REALTOR® you can resolve the answers to these questions and determine the right price for your home. With careful planning, it is possible to buy and sell in this market and come out ahead. Choose the Right Agent for today’s market!

Come-from-behind thrilling for fans, nerve-wracking for Sun Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER

If entertainment value counted for anything, fans of the Okanagan Sun may have been thrilled with the team’s home opener, an exciting, come-from-behind win over the Langley Rams on Saturday night at the Apple Bowl. The Sun however, are likely more concerned with the fact they nearly let a win slip away with a back-and-forth final quarter that saw the Rams take the lead before Okanagan scored two late touchdowns to improve to 2-and-0 on the season. “It was a nail-biter the whole game,” said receiver Danny Turek. “But we’re not playing to our full potential right now. I don’t know if we aren’t work-

ing as a team but we’re just not playing Okanagan Sun football. It’s coming, but it’s taking awhile.” The Sun led 12-2 after three quarters of play before the floodgates opened and the teams combined for 42 points in the fourth quarter alone. With the Rams holding the lead, Okanagan quarterback Bobby Davis hit Ben White for a 29-yard touchdown to reclaim the lead before adding another score to make the final 33-23. Davis was 10 for 16 with two touchdown passes on the night. Jeremy Joseph also took some snaps at QB and was six-for 15 for 84 yards before Davis came back in to engineer the comeback. Tommy Howes (six catches for 87 yards) and

USA sharp shooter If Team USA is looking for someone able to finish games in a shootout, Shane McColgan showed he wants that opportunity. McColgan scored the only goal of a shootout that snapped a tie between team Blue and White at the Team USA World Junior Development camp in Lake Placid, New York on Sunday. The talented Kelowna Rockets forward is among 44 of the top American players under the age of 20 that are auditioning for a spot on the 2012 U.S. National Junior Team at the USA Hockey National Junior Evaluation Camp from Aug. 6-13 in Lake Placid, N.Y. The chance to play in the World Junior Tourna-

ment is something McColgan has been dreaming of since he started taking hockey seriously. “It’s awesome, it’s an honour just getting invited to the camp,” said McColgan, who was drafted this summer by the New York Rangers in the fifth round of the NHL Entry Draft. “Making this camp is not my main goal though. I want to make the team and win a gold medal for my country. It’s been a dream of mine since I was 12 or 13.” McColgan is one of only two Western Hockey League players amongst the 44 players invited to the camp. Emerson Etem of Medicine Hat, a returnee from last year’s team is the other WHLer. There are nine OHL players and

two from the USHL while the rest are either Team USA products or NCAA players. “There’s a lot of big boys and high end first rounders here so it’s an honour to be competing for a spot,” he said. It’s not McColgan’s first crack at international competition. He made Team USA at the World Under-17 and at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial tournament, although missed the latter due to injury. Heading into his third year in the WHL this season, the 5-foot-9 forward says he felt good after a solid summer of training that included a trip to New York to skate with the Rangers prospects immediately after the NHL draft.

and that’s OK but we have to come out a lot stronger at the beginning of the game to make sure it’s a win,” said Turek. “If we played the whole game like we did in the fourth quarter that game is a nobrainer.” On the defensive side of the ball Wyatt Smith and Tobi Sroka each had five tackles. The Sun are back on the road this weekend as they travel to McLeod Stadium in Langley for the rematch between the Sun and Rams. The two teams meet on Saturday at 7 p.m. “Langley’s a great team and hats off to them but I feel like the Okanagan Sun is a much better team than they are this year,” said Turek.

MacDonald a Pyle driver

MARISSA BAECKER/CONTRIBUTED

KELOWNA ROCKETS forward Shane McColgan is

hoping he will make the first cut at the Team USA World Junior Evaluation camp taking place in Lake Placid, NewYork. “I definitely feel more confident,” he said. “I’ve gained a little weight and it’s been a good summer of training. Hockey wise for me I just want to come

into Kelowna’s camp and be a leader and a captain and use my experience from Kelowna and from here (USA camp) and step up this year.”

He may have a new nickname but the results were the same for Kelowna mixed martial artist Rory MacDonald. MacDonald, who changed his nickname from the Water Boy to Ares (the Greek god of war) before Saturday’s UFC 133 card in Philadelphia, continued a successful run through the UFC welterweight division, knocking out veteran Mike Pyle in the first round. The win improved MacDonald’s MMA record to 12-1 as he continues his first contract with the UFC with two wins and one loss in the UFC.

Against Pyle, MacDonald landed a series of punches before taking the American to the ground where the fight was stopped. Following the event announcer Joe Rogan compared MacDonald to Canadian legend and training partner Georges St. Pierre. “I take that as a compliment, but I’ll never be Georges,” said MacDonald in a post fight interview. “I’m Rory MacDonald. I’m going to do my thing, do it the way I want to do it, and fight new guys, do new things. We’re completely different fighters.”

Warriors coach begins own era by signing Surrey forward It didn’t take long for new Westside Warriors general manager and head coach Rylan Ferster to begin putting his own stamp on the Warriors. On Saturday, Ferster pulled the trigger on his first trade as the Warriors GM, acquiring a scoring

forward from the Surrey Eagles. The Warriors acquired 20 year old forward Richard Vanderhoek from the Surrey Eagles in exchange for 19-year-old defenceman Matt Cronin. “Any time you make a deal you try to improve

your hockey club and we certainly hope with this one that will be the case,” said Ferster. “Richard is a top-six forward and had 71 points in 55 games, so we have a high end forward here. It’s never fun to part with guys, but unfortunately that’s the na-

ture of the beast.” After putting up 71 points last season, Vanderhoek will return to the BCHL for his final year of junior as the highest point getter returning from the BCHL last season. Over the past two seasons, both with Surrey,

Vanderhoek scored at better than a point -a-game clip, picking up 48 goals and 118 points in 109 games. He scored 13 times and had 23 helpers on the power-play last year as well. In his only season

with the Warriors, Cronin scored four goals and added 10 assists in 52 games. The Warriors acquired Cronin from Drumheller of the Alberta Junior Hockey League prior to training camp a year ago. Ferster says the club gave up a lot in Cronin to

make the deal, but says he hopes Vanderhoek will come in and not only provide offence but leadership as well. Vanderhoek will be in town when the Warriors open training camp Wednesday, Aug. 31 at Royal LePage Place.

The swimming season ended on a high note for the Liquid Lightning swim club last week in Montreal at the Canadian Age Group Championships. It was the most competitive meet in Canada for age group swimmers and features the stars of tomorrow and the West Kelowna-based swim club showcased their swimmers with some outstanding performances from newcomers and veterans. The Lightning sent 14 swimmers to Montreal and the girls’ side finished

23rd in Canada out of 200 clubs. Lightning swimmers won three gold medals, one bronze and set one provincial record for girls 15 to 17. There were 53 PBs throughout the week and 16 new club records. Swimmers reaching the finals were Kierra Smith, Andraya Skrlacc, Makayla Skrlac and Kassidie Cornel. Lauren Fauchon and Anthony Russo both achieved 100 per cent best times. Other swimmers achieving personal bests were Andraya

Skrlac, Elizabeth Aguiar, Jamie Fergusan, Lucas tyler and Alex Diaz. The previous week in the Montreal suburb of Pointe Claire, Kierra Smith swam to a 1:09.40 in the 100m breaststroke at the Pan Am Games trials. This was enough for a silver medal and her first podium finish at a senior canadian meet. It qualified her for the Pan Am Games team which will be held in Guadalajara Mexico in October. Jennifer Short made the C final and placed 28th in the country in her

first Senior Championships meet. Sarah McKay also achieved personal best times at this meet in the 100 and 200 butterfly. “This year our swimmers came to Montreal on a business trip instead of as tourists,” said head coach Emil Dimitrov. “We arrived a week early to get acclimatized to the weather, time zone and the added challenge of competing in an outdoor facility. We weren’t satisfied with just getting a T-shirt this year and worked together getting the best from each individual swim. Next year

looks even more promising with the experienced swimmers we are producing.” Smith’s season continues in Kamloops this week at the Western Canadian Summer Games while Lacey Falkingham is in Lanarkshire Scotland for the World Children’s Games. Meanwhile the Llquid Lightning will feature a Try Me swim camp Aug. 29 to Sept. 2 at Johnson Bentley pool, 5 to 6 pm. Call Denise to register 250-454-9830.

Friesen bounds to World Championships A member of the Okanagan Gymnastics Centre has qualified for the World Championships after attending a Canada Cup event in Alberta early this month. Luke Friesen finished with a bronze medal in the senior men’s double mini trampoline competition. His score qualified Friesen for the Canadian men’s team that will attend World Championships which will be held in Birmingham, England November 17 to 20, 2011. It will be the third time Friesen has represented Canada on the men’s world team. Ten athletes and two coaches from Okanagan Gymnastics Centre competed at the Canada Cup in Airdrie, Alberta. Emma Tucker, Rachel Stone, Danielle Gruber, Trevor Stirling and Curtis Gerein all qualified for World Age Group Champion-

ships, which will also be held in Birmingham in November, immediately following World Championships. OGC coach Angelo Despotas has been named as Canadian team coach after having five athletes qualify for this event. At the Canada Cup, Trevor Stirling competed in the men’s youth trampoline and earned the gold medal. Because of Stirling’s impressive results, he was chosen to compete on the Canadian Youth team at a World Cup event in Spain at the end of August. “It is great to see Trevor’s consistent hard work in training pay off,” says Despotas. Emma Tucker earned the silver medal in the Women’s Novice 11 to 14 Trampoline category. Tucker and teammate Danielle Gruber both moved up to the women’s youth category in women’s double mini trampoline.

“They both showed remarkable results and opened some eyes in Canada,” stated Despotas. In the Women’s Novice 15 plus category, Rachel Stone earned the title of double mini trampoline champion and holds her title as national champion. Stone also earned a gold medal in the synchronized trampoline event. The Canada Cup was the first national level competition for two of the athlete’s as Jill Bobyn and Zoe Paquet both went home with a medal after their first experience at a national competition. Bobyn earned a gold medal in women’s novice synchronized trampoline with her teammate Rachel Stone in the women’s novice category. Zoe Paquet and her synchronized trampoline partner, Stephanie Hill, finished in a close second, only 0.3 behind Bobyn and Stone.

Kelowna flavour on FH national team Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

Chances are good Kelowna’s field hockey community will be well represented when Canada competes at the 2011 Pan American Games in Mexico. If all goes according to plan, three former members of the Kelowna Owls program will be wearing the maple leaf when the Canadian women’s national field hockey team takes to the pitch this October in Guadalajara. Thanks to her three years of experience with the senior program, Abigail Raye is basically a shoo-in to make the Canada’s roster.

Abigail Raye

Natalie Sourisseau

Dani Hennig and Natalie Sourisseau are also hoping to make the grade when Canada announces its final Pan Am team at the end of August. At just 20, Raye is a starter and the seasoned veteran among the Kelowna threesome. She became the youngest player

in national team history to surpass 50 caps when she started for the Canadian team this spring at a tournament in Vienna. Raye now has 62 caps. Hennig, in her second season, has 27 caps and has been playing regularly for the national squad this summer.

Hennig, who graduated from KSS in 2008 and attends the University of Victoria, played in every a during the 4 Nations Classic last month at UBC, then three more games against Japan in a test series in late July. “I’m definitely adjusting, getting used to the tactics and the speed of the game,” said Hennig, 20, who has been playing various positions on the field. “I’ve definitely gained some experience in the last year, so I’m hoping it’s enough to make the team and go to the Pan Am Games.” Sourisseau, 18, a teammate of Raye’s at UBC and a 2010 grad from KSS, is in her first full season with the national team. She is steadily piling up international experience and has 13 caps to her credit since joining the program in January. “It started out a little rough for me I was a little nervous, playing forward was a new position for me,” said Sourisseau, the 2010 CIS rookie of the year. “But at the 4 Nations I played more midfield, which I’m used to. I feel like I did pretty well and I’m getting a little more comfortable each time I play. I’m enjoying it.” With the addition of

Sourisseau this year, it’s the first time three Kelowna products have ever been on the national team at the same time. Raye, Hennig and Sourisseau also played together with the Owls in 2008. Hennig said it’s a source of pride for the Kelowna girls and, at the same time, a bit of a mystery for the national team’s coaching staff “It’s pretty cool to have three of us on the roster,” said Hennig. “The coach is a little baffled by it because the Interior hasn’t always been that well known for field hockey players. We’ve had players in the past play for the national team, but never this many. We all hang out together and have a lot of fun with it. It’s nice to represent our hometown.” If all three girls do play at the Pan Am Games, their collective goal will be clear—to help the No. 20 world-ranked Canadians win a medal. A gold medal carries with it an automatic berth in the 2012 Olympic Games in London. The silver and bronze winners at the Pan Am Games will be given a chance to qualify for the 2012 Games through a qualification process early next year.

SENIORS

▼ TRAVEL

Be prepared on a vacation for emergency health care

eniors need to keep in mind that when they are traveling a medical emergency could happen at any time. It might also happen when they are alone and cannot communicate. When an emergency happens, medical professionals need to have current up-to-date information to provide correct treatment. This information needs to be easily and readily accessible. It could be a matter of life or death. One of the most important and easiest things seniors should do, regardless of whether they’re traveling abroad or just walking down the street, is to have a list of at least two emergency contact names and telephone numbers. This information should be placed in at least two locations so if a senior can’t be safely moved after falling ill, the police have the opportunity to check two accessible locations to find identification information. My mother had the information on a piece of paper taped on to the inside of her purse, which

SENIORS’ CONCERNS

Sharen Marteny was immediately seen when her purse was opened. Seniors who drive motorized scooters should also have identification on at least two easily reached locations on the scooter. If seniors have Alzheimer’s or any level of dementia and can’t give information, then an identification bracelet can be worn, available through the Safely Home Alzheimer Wandering Registry, run by the Alzheimer Society of Canada. This bracelet will give the RCMP information to properly identify the seniors. All seniors should carry a current list of the medications they are taking, including the frequency and dosage. List all chronic conditions and any recent surgeries with details. If a Do Not Resuscitate is in place then a copy

of that should also be carried. If a senior is heading out for a short trip and doesn’t want to take a large supply of pills with them, then put the different pills in sealable plastic bags at home. Put each type of medication in a separate bag. Include a piece of paper with the name of the pill, the dosage and frequency the medication is to be taken plus the reason that the medication is being taken. Some medications are used for conditions other than the one for which the medication is primarily associated. Seniors should also have a list of the names of their doctors and telephone numbers. As well, include the name and telephone number of the drugstore where their prescriptions are on file. A branch store should be able to obtain a refill of a prescription if required. Some seniors should have a current set of their x-rays with them. Check with your doctor to see if this is advisable. If families are traveling with seniors who have Alzheimer’s or an-

NEWS â&#x2013;ź WORKPLACE

HR tip from the Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Den R

ecently, I read an article that summarized a talk given by Kevin Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Leary at the B.C. Human Resources Management Association spring conference. In case you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know who Kevin is, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;dragonsâ&#x20AC;? from the popular TV show Dragonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Den. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Leary is a very successful entrepreneur who clearly knows how to generate money in his business ventures. He has also been described by some as abrasive and insensitive, with too much focus on money and not enough on people. It was interesting then, to read what he had to say about the value of Human Resources and the critical role it plays in the financial success of an organization. He made some great points about why the people side of business matters so much. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Learyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s observations about the link between profit and people really resonated. As he pointed out, having a strong HR func-

WORK LIFE

Laurie Mills tion with clear links to profit levels is a wise business strategy. The key purpose of HR, in his view, is to source and hire employees who are passionate about the companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success. Obviously, there is more to the HR function than just hiring the â&#x20AC;&#x153;rightâ&#x20AC;? people. However, I do agree with his challenge to business leaders that they pay more attention to this component in their strategic planning. The point Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Leary makes here is that people drive profitability. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an interesting way to simplify the concept of how HR works, though the link is not always obvious to some. There are many businesses that are financially successful and yet operate without a clearly defined

HR function. In my consulting practice, I see this all the time, particularly with small, growing companies. The approach to hiring is informal, typically lacking objective tools to assess the skill set and â&#x20AC;&#x153;fitâ&#x20AC;? of potential employees. In the short-term when the team is small, business owners can get lucky with who they hire. However, as things expand and the work gets more demanding or complex, the cracks in this approach start to show. Ad hoc practices in hiring, training, motivating and promoting employees will only work for so long. Without someone specifically dedicated to handling all of the elements of the employee lifecycle, even the most profitable business will eventually experience the consequences. When the people side of the business is not well organized or managed, a certain level of interpersonal chaos will eventually set in and ultimately impact the bottom line. Applying HR expertise wisely can help to

avoid that. The suggestion here is not that every business needs to hire an HR professional, although if the resources are there, it is a valuable investment. Rather, the message is about how important it is for HR to be an actively managed function, linked to the overall business strategy and measured against clear objectives. Who is hired, promoted or terminated are business decisions. Having someone who understands best practices in people management â&#x20AC;&#x153;at the tableâ&#x20AC;? as those decisions are made is a smart move. It may be time to consider what Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Leary asked his audience: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who is doing your HR?â&#x20AC;? Laurie Mills is a certified coach and human resource professional.

Peaches came to us when her owner could no longer care for her. She loves to interact with people. She will fall over on her side for tummy rubs and loves to push her face into your hands. Peaches would make an excellent companion, as she is calm and would do well in a home where she can continue to express her love for human companionship. If you would like to meet her, please come down to the shelter and ask for an introduction.

Monkey is a very timid, scared girl who is in foster care now. Her foster family has very good things to say about her... never scratches the furniture...likes to be brushed & have her tummy rubbed. She will need a special person to bond with as sometimes she can still be very shy. Monkey needs a home with NO DOGS, NO CHILDREN, but is OK with other cats. If you have the ideal home for her, please call the shelter for a meet & greet. Came in as a stray

ID#231929

Coco is a sweet older pup looking for her ‘forever home’. She would do well in a home with another dog, active owners and NO YOUNG CHILDREN. She will need a family with lots of time to spend with her, a working dog by nature needs lots of exercise, so daily walks and trips to the dog park are mandatory to keep her entertained and focuses and allow her to blossom into the best dog she can be.

ADULT SHAR-PEI/PITBULL TERRIER X SPAYED FEMALE

Bolt is a wonderful, mellow feline who loves to pick a place and lounge. He would suit a family who wants a big, laid-back cat, as he makes an excellent couch-potato! We feel that Bolt would make a great addition to any family with his ‘no problem’ attitude. He got along instantly with a room full of cats, and is very personable. If you would like to meet this handsome boy, please come down and spend some time with him.

Bella is a very special dog who needs a very special home. Her owners could not take her when they moved, and she had a rough start to life which makes her a timid dog, taking her time to warm up and trust people and her surroundings. Despite that she is loving, goofy, likes to play and would prefer a home with another social, friendly dog (she especially loves boys). She will need a quiet household, with patient loving people who understand her needs. Please call for an appointment to view as she is in foster right now.

Help Me! it’s so hot in here...why did you leave me? At certain points in the day, your vehicle can get up to 60+ Celsius, add on a few pounds of fur and your dog is on the fast track to death. Dogs and cats pant to release heat through their paws, which keeps them cool, but in the warmth of your car, this is not possible. So, leave your pet at home and your perky pooch will thank you!

If you see a dog in a car on a hot day that you believe may be in trouble, call your local SPCA, animal shelter, or police immediately.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen brunch for a bunch With a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables available at this time of year, it’s a perfect opportunity to display the bounty at the brunch table. Brunch is a very pleasant opportunity to entertain friends or family, especially in summer when a spread can be laid out on the patio or lawn for everyone to help themselves. Fresh fruits and plain yogurt are a simple, but refreshing beginning to brunch, and there are lots of different egg dishes that are great to serve to a crowd of people—and many of them can be prepared ahead of time. Quiches can actually be completely made ahead of time, and served at room temperature or cold, while there are a variety of egg strata recipes which can be assembled the night before, set in the fridge, then put into the oven in the morning, just before your guests arrive, or your family gets up. Frittatas or oven omelettes can also be prepared ahead, and completed just prior to the arrival of guests. Most taste good slightly cooled. Scrambled eggs take only a few minutes to cook as long as the ingredients are all ready ahead of time. Muffins, buns, savoury or sweet rolls, cinnamon buns, coffee cakes and pastries can be purchased or made ahead of time and are easier than trying to toast and butter dozens of slices of bread at the last minute— unless you have a very efficient assistant. Fresh vegetables can be served on veggie platters with a dip or small versions displayed whole, for a rustic touch to a picnic-style brunch. You could even grill chunks and serve them on a platter to accompany the eggs, garnished with fresh herbs. Slices of ham can also be briefly grilled, along with sausages, if you want to offer a meat option as well. And, cheese plates pair well with everything from fresh fruit and vegetables to rolls and pastries. If you wish to offer wine you can’t go far wrong by offering a bubbly for brunch, or suggest someone bring it along. For more great suggestions for brunch recipes, pick up a copy of my new book, Jude’s Kitchen, available wherever books are sold.

Peach & Pecan Coffee Cake Okanagan peaches are now ripe and full of flavour, so pick some up and use them in your favourite recipes or eat them out of hand, along with nectarines, cherries, apricots, plums and a variety of berries. Decadently delicious, but not too rich, this coffee cake is excellent served for brunch or for dessert. 2 peaches 3/4 c. (175 ml) brown sugar 1 egg 1/4 c. (60 ml) butter 1/2 c. (125 ml) skim milk 1 1/2 c. (375 ml) w.w. flour 2 tsp. (10 ml) baking powder 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) salt

TOPPING:

1/2 c. 2 tbsp.

brown sugar 125 ml flour 30 ml

2 tbsp. butter 30 ml 2 tsp. cinnamon 10 ml 1/2 c. (125 ml) chopped pecans Pre-heat oven to 375F. Grease a nine-inch square pan and dust lightly with flour. Peel and slice two peaches. Beat brown sugar, egg and butter; add milk. Sift together the whole wheat flour, baking powder and salt, then stir it into the wet ingredients. Spread the batter in the pan, then lay the chunks of sliced peach over the batter, close together. Combine topping ingredients well, then add roasted chopped pecans. Sprinkle topping over it all as evenly as possible. Bake for 25 to 35 minutes in a 375F oven. May be served warm or cooled.

Antonette's Frittata This is a satisfying meal for breakfast or brunch, before a day of outdoor activities. It’s full of good-for-you stuff. Serve with toast or a sweet bun and fresh fruit. 2 c. (500 ml) cooked potatoes 2 celery stalks 2 green onions 5 mushrooms 1/4 red pepper 1/2 green pepper 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh dill 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh parsley 14 eggs 1/4 c. (60 ml) water 1 tbsp. (15 ml) butter black pepper, to taste 2 sliced tomatoes salt, to taste 1/2 c. (125 ml) crumbled feta 1/4 c. (60 ml) parmesan cheese fresh herbs, to garnish Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Chop potatoes, celery, onions and mushrooms and finely chop peppers and herbs.

Whisk eggs with water in a small bowl. Using a very large (or two smaller), ovensafe frypans, brown the leftover spuds in butter over medium heat with fresh-ground black pepper. Add celery and peppers and saute for a couple of minutes. Add green onions and mushrooms and let cook for a minute. Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh herbs, then pour egg mixture over top and stir slightly to mix the eggs through the vegetables and herbs. Return to the burner over medium heat, cooking for up to five minutes until it’s just setting around the edges. Put into a 350 F oven for about 15 minutes, or just until the top is set. Just before it’s set, remove the pan and turn on the broiler. Arrange sliced tomatoes over the top of the frittata, salt lightly and crumble feta over the top. Sprinkle with parmesan. Broil for just a few minutes until the tomatoes are set into the frittata’s top and the cheese is soft. Garnish with fresh herbs. Serves 8-10.
