Fruit growers take yet another hit

On the heels of a hail storm that caused havoc for Southeast Kelowna orchardists last week with crop damage in the millions, now the cooler spring weather we experienced could leave cherry growers facing a $32 million crop loss this year.

Judie Steeves/

STAFF REPORTER

As the last of the late cherries are plucked from trees in the Okanagan this week, it’s become clear that frost and cool weather during blossom time in the spring has had a significant impact on the size of this year’s crop. President of the B.C. Cherry Association, Christine Dendy of Kelowna, estimates this year’s crop to be around 50 to 60 per cent of normal—a loss estimated at $32 million. While last year’s crop was estimated at about 16,000 tonnes, this year they picked an estimated total of 8,000 to 10,000 tonnes, she said. Spring frost resulted in a much-smaller-than-normal crop produced by growers in adjacent Washington State as well, she noted—about half normal. “Next year will be a big challenge as both Washington and B.C. could have big crops with new production coming into bearing as well,” she said. Cherry production in the northwest has increased exponentially in recent years as more and more growers replanted apples to cherries, with low prices on global markets for apples and with newer varieties of cherries providing a lengthened season for harvesting and marketing. There are still young trees that are just coming into production in both countries. Byron Jonson, general manager for the agriculture ministry’s crop insurance branch in Kelowna, says not all producers, particularly some of the larger cherry growers, participate in the program, but he said they have seen claims for losses in the Oliver-Osoyoos area of 75 per cent of last year’s crop, and 30 to 50 per cent in the Similkameen.

Vacationer drowns in Okanagan Lake Barry Gerding EDITOR

Two drowning inidents this past weekend have left one man dead and another in critical condition at Kelowna General Hospital. Early Sunday evening, a 24-year-old Surrey man drowned after getting into trouble while swimming out to his boat from the Okanagan Lake shore near a private beach access at Watt Road in the Mission.

His girlfriend, also in her 20s, was in the boat and tried to help her boyfriend, who police said encountered difficulty staying afloat. She jumped into the water to help him but to no avail. She also placed herself in danger as well. A lakefront resident had reportedly seen the incident unfold from his home and rushed out to help the couple on his Sea-doo.

Pride Festival organizers ‘overwhelmed’ by numbers Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER

Countless rainbow flags were held proudly Saturday as hundreds marched from Stuart Park to City Park to celebrate the final day of the Okanagan Pride Festival in Kelowna. Wilbur Turner, president of Okanagan Pride Society and co-chairman of the Pride Festival, said he was “overwhelmed” by this year’s numbers. “This is totally amazing. I would say it’s probably four to five times larger than last year,” said Turner. “We had a lot of media coverage and a lot of promotion. The calibre of entertainment that we’re bringing in has attracted people as well. We’ve also been advertising across Canada—so I think it’s paying off.” Saturday’s Pride March and Festival in the Park concluded a week of festivities, which included Soul Food Sunday, the second annual Drag Competition and Show, and Viva Las Pride, a brand new event that saw Okanagan Pride team

up with Okanagan Wine Festivals for a night of wine tasting and casino entertainment. Approximately 70 volunteers offered their services throughout the week to help ensure the events ran smoothly. On Saturday, Turner told the crowd at City Park that the Pride community is like one large family. “We’re a family because we’re connected by a struggle that has gone on for years, for equality. “We just want to be treated like everybody else—equally.” He added the Canadian lesbian-gay-bisexual-transgender community has many privileges many others internationally do not. “We need to remember those people and stand in solidarity and love.” Calling Pride Week “a celebration of diversity,” Kelowna Mayor Walter Gray read the 2013 Pride Week proclamation and told those in attendance: “There’s support at City Hall for what you’re doing.”

Civil suit launched by women injured in Bacon shooting Cheryl Wierda CONTRIBUTOR

The three men accused of gunning down Red Scorpions gangster Jonathan Bacon and attempting to kill four others outside the Delta Grand hotel in Kelowna two years ago, are facing more legal troubles.

One of the women injured in the shooting, Leah Hadden-Watts, has now filed a civil suit against the trio, who are facing criminal charges in relation to the brazen daytime shooting two years ago, as well as the companies that operate the both the Delta Grand hotel and the nearby casino.

In a notice of claim filed on the second anniversary of the shooting, her lawyer writes that Hadden-Watts’ spinal column was severed by a bullet during the Aug. 14, 2011, shooting and that she has paralysis in both her legs, most of her upper torso and partial paralysis of both arms and hands.

Hadden-Watts, now 23, and Bacon, 30, were in a vehicle with another woman and two men— one a Hells Angel member and the other a member of the Independent Soldiers gang—when they were shot as they left the downtown hotel. “As a result of the injuries caused by the bul-

let, the plaintiff (Hadden-Watts) is unable to obtain and maintain gainful employment and will require special medical care for the remainder of her life,” writes lawyer Angela Rinaldis. Hadden-Watts is seeking damages for pain and suffering, recovery of previous and anticipated

costs and expenses related to the injury, as well as compensation for loss of income earning capacity. Named in the claim are British Columbia Investment Management Corporation, which runs the Delta Grand, Gateway Casinos & Entertainment Limited, which operates the casino, and the

three men charged with attempting to kill Hadden-Watts: Jujhar Singh Khun-Khun, Michael Kerry Jones and Jason Thomas McBride. None of the criminal charges have been proven in court. Statements of defence in the civil case have not yet been filed.

Highway 97 upgrade welcomed by municipality Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER

Lake Country mayor James Baker has been talking about that “old stretch of road” that runs along Wood Lake for a long time and at a couple different levels of local government. Baker was a member of the Central Okanagan Regional District when he was first involved in discussions over the old Highway 97, now Pelmewash Parkway. So Baker was looking forward to what is next, as well as back over years of work to get the highway replaced on Friday, when the new stretch of highway opened to traffic. “It’s great that this finally comes to fruition,”

said Baker, before making his public remarks at the opening of the highway. “We’ve been talking about this since the 1980s. First they were going to widen the (existing) highway, then they were going to four-lane it.” As discussions on the highway and what to do with the stretch of road that was becoming more and more dangerous as traffic flows increased continued, Baker made his way from the regional district table to Lake Country council chambers. “This really started in 2005 when we made it one of our priorities to get the road fixed up,” said Baker, who credited former Oyama ward councillor Noreen Guenther with

putting a real push on the need for a new highway. Now living and working in the private sector in Vernon, Guenther was at the opening, proud to see the new highway opened after so many years of tragic accidents. It was safety that was on her mind as she attended the celebration with her family. “I’m really happy, this is something we worked on for years,” Guenther said. “I know the new roadway won’t guarantee an accident won’t happen but it will give drivers the chance to do those accident avoidance techniques.” One of the techniques Guenther used in her lobbying efforts over the

ate something new from the old highway. There have been public consultations and planning sessions and council is expected to see its first report from DLC staff in September. Baker too was thinking of safety as he got set to open the new highway, But he was also excited for the future of what is now called Pelmewash Parkway (the former stretch of Highway

97 alongside Wood Lake) “It’s just great,” he said. “We now have six kilometres of lakeshore. It’s an old road but we can make it better. This makes traffic so much safer. There are a lot of commuters between Vernon and Lake Country and Vernon and Kelowna and this really will make a difference.” kparnell@kelownacapnews.com

Local MLAs, MP tour fruit farms hit by severe hail storm At the invitation of the The B.C. Fruit Growers’ Association, local politicians toured farms hit by a severe hail storm last week without making any promises of government assistance to off-set the crop losses. Local MLAs Norm Letnick and Steve Thomson were joined by area MP Ron Cannan and about local 20 orchardists and BCFGA representatives. “Our association and impacted growers appreciate the interest and compassion shown by our elected representatives for the damage and economic costs that arise from this natural disaster,” said Jeet Dukhia, president of the BC Fruit Growers’ Association. On Monday, Aug. 12, at about 8 p.m., a severe hail storm rumbled through southeast Kelowna. The storm lasted about 15 minutes, with hail pellets the size of marbles. In the aftermath, trees and vines were left with shredded leaves, and fruit was severely damaged with bruising and cuts to the skin. Damage was exten-

sive to about 700 acres, with much of that making the fruit unharvestable. Some of the losses will be recovered from crop insurance and other programs, but the extent of the damage was unprecedented, Dukhia said. Some damage is not covered by the current programs, including harm to the trees and vines from the hail. “Leaves were shredded during this hail and it will take the trees up to two years to recover, so there will be lower yields on the 40 impacted farms,” Dukhia said. “In the meantime, growers face extra costs that include additional fertilizers and nutrients to restore the health of the trees and vines, extra time pruning out damage fruit, and the cost of getting the damaged apples and grapes off of the trees and vines.” The most severe damage was in Thomson’s Mission-Kelowna riding. The tour looked at damage on two of the severely impacted orchards, and one vineyard. Thomson has also told the BCFGA he will arrange for the provincial

Cherry farmers face drop in crop harvest Growers from A1 Growers in the Creston and Oyama areas also put in claims for spring frost damage, resulting in a lighter crop there than in 2012. As well, Jonson said there were eight rain events in June in the North Okanagan, Oliver-Osoyoos area and the Similkameen which caused a significant amount of cherry splitting, particularly in the early varieties. “We are unable to put a number on the extent of the losses as we are still receiving producers’ declarations of production, which are required for calculation of claims,” said Jonson. Dendy says the cold snap in the middle of the blossom period is likely to blame for many of the losses in the Okanagan, while damage was also done to the tiny fruitlets of the crop in Washington State, where the season begins a bit earlier. As a result, cherry marketers in the U.S. cancelled their scheduled promotion programs for the early fruit, and the market started out with lower prices than growers had hoped. A good crop in Europe which was late this year provided considerable competition for local cherries on global markets, so prices were “not outstanding,” she said. Bloom time in the southern part of the valley was early, but then cool weather slowed it down, and cell division was not good in those early varieties of cherries. The mid-season varieties sized up better than either early or late ones. Because of hot weather through July and early August, the later varieties of cherries ripened earlier than usual, so the picking season has concluded about two weeks early for growers with late-season cherry varieties, like the Dendy orchard. jsteeves@kelownacapnews.com

Yacht club member in critical condition at KGH Drownings from A1 find the body. That effort came to a heartbreaking conclusion at about noon Monday when the Surrey swimmer was found near where he had disappeared in about 10 feet of water. The young couple had rented the 20-foot Bayliner boat and were about 150 yards from shore when the incident occurred Neither were wearing a life jacket. Police have not released the identities of the couple. “It’s another unfortunate situation where we are reminded of the importance of taking safety precautions when in the water during the summer,” said Kelowna RCMP Corp. Bill Parmar. Emergency personnel were comforting the drowning victim’s girlfriend on the beach as she waited for some sign of her boyfriend from the search and rescue effort. Meanwhile, a 66-yearold man is in hospital and

listed in critical condition as of Monday afternoon after falling into Okanagan Lake in front of the Kelowna Yacht Club sometime after noon on Friday. Emergency crews on scene said the individual, identified by yacht club vice-commodore and moorage director Mike Terris as a member of the club, was found in the lake without a pulse at 12:30 p.m. “At this point, EHS and advanced life-support has been working on the male (and) he’s being transported to KGH for medical evaluation,” said Parmar, noting the efforts had secured a pulse on the victim by the time the ambulance left for the hospital. The body was found behind slip C40 by a dock hand who was cleaning out millweed in the area. The dock hand made the call to 9-1-1 and the body was pulled from the lake by ambulance and police personnel. Police are trying to de-

termine what happened as there was no one else found near the victim, no one to say how long he was in the water. “There’s some indications that it could have been as much as a half hour,” Parmar said. RCMP investigators are talking to staff as well as people moored on the water, to get a timeline of the events and see if there are witnesses who can help determine what happened. This summer has proven one of the more deadly summers in B.C. in terms of the number of people who have drowned. In addition to the death of a father who jumped into Wood Lake to save his two boys, the Okanagan has already seen another man die in a snorkelling incident in Peachland. Finally, a man drowned in Mill Creek; the coroner has not determined the circumstances surrounding that death. —With files by Wade Paterson and Don Sipos

Before you dive head first off that cliff, know that an average of 400 people drown every year in Canada. Red Cross research, examining 10 years of drowning statistics, shows that men aged 15 to 44 and young children aged one to four are at the greatest risk of drowning. As we continue to enjoy our record-breaking days of sunshine this summer, the Red Cross is asking the public to play safe in and around the water by keeping in mind these tips: • The average person who suffers a diving-related spinal cord injury is male, 17to 22-years-old, with no formal training in diving and who is visiting the location for the first time.

• In familiar and unfamiliar water, be sure of the water depth and be aware of any hazards and always enter feet-first the first time. • A small child can disappear in seconds and can drown in only a few centimetres of water. One-third of children who drown do so in situations where they enter the water unexpectedly, such as falling from a dock or entering the water without their caregiver’s knowledge. • Each year, more than 160 Canadians drown while boating. • Red Cross research shows that wearing a lifejacket or a PFD properly can eliminate up to 90 per cent of all boating-related drownings. • Do not drink alcohol and swim.

Pipeline energy projects offer economic opportunities T ‘‘ he announcement on Aug. 1 by TransCanada that it is moving forward with its Energy East Pipeline Project has piqued the interest of constituents. The project aims to carry Canadian crude from Alberta and Saskatchewan to refineries in Quebec and New Brunswick. TransCanada estimates that subject to regulatory approvals, construction would take two years and the oil pipeline could be in service by the end of 2017. Back in 2006, when I first became an MP, a couple of constituents wrote to me suggesting a west-east pipeline. It is intriguing to think that the entire country could benefit from access to a secure, made in Canada energy supply. Currently, as of 2012, 83 per cent of crude oil deliveries to Atlantic Canadian refineries and 92 per cent of oil deliveries to refineries in Quebec were imported, primarily from

MP’S REPORT

Ron Cannan the Middle East, Nigeria and Angola. Many of us see it as a positive that our country would be less reliant on foreign oil from other countries. And there is little doubt that construction of the Energy East project could provide significant economic benefits to Canada while reaching new markets abroad. However, as Prime Minister Stephen Harper has made clear, such energy projects in Canada can only proceed after an independent, science-based environmental and regulatory review process is carried out by the National Energy Board to ensure that it is safe for Canadians. Recent actions taken by our government to en-

sure responsible resource development in Canada should also provide assurance to my constituents that safety is a key priority. We have introduced new measures to: • Further enhance pipeline safety by increasing the number of oil and gas pipeline inspections from 100 to 150 • Double the number of safety audits to identify potential issues and prevent incidents from occurring • Require the development and implementation of an emergency management program focused explicitly on emergency-preparedness and response requirements • Require companies to develop and implement a security program that anticipates, prevents, manages and mitigates conditions that could adversely affect people, property or the environment • Introduce new fines for companies designed to preventively address pipeline contraventions quick-

out exactly what a company will do, and the sequence of actions, in the unlikely event of a pipeline rupture or spill. It is estimated that natural resource development supports 1.6 million jobs across Canada and generates billions in tax revenue and royalties annually for critical social programs like health care and education. With both NDP and

Liberal leaders indicating they are not opposed to a west to east pipeline, it will be interesting to see what kind of feedback Canadians themselves provide. I believe many of us share common ground on the issue of pipelines. We want our children and our grandchildren to be able to benefit from the economic opportunities and innovation of natural

resource development. We also want the communities in which we live and raise families to be as safe and sound as possible. I look forward to hearing your feedback as we watch this proposal and process unfold. Ron Cannan is the Conservative MP for Kelowna-Lake Country. ron@cannan.ca

Credit Union’s Feed The Valley initiative smashes $500,000 mark Valley First Credit Union’s Feed the Valley campaign in support of the food banks passed a milestone on Monday. Launched in March 2010, the campaign has now surpassed the $500,000 fundraising mark. The program aims to raise food, funds and awareness for food banks throughout the Okanagan, Similkameen and Thompson regions. “It’s simply incredible,” said Valley First president Paulette Rennie of the Feed the Valley donation totals at a press conference on Monday. “In 2010, we set ourselves the ambitious goal of raising $100,000 a year over the next ten years—a total of $1 million for local food banks. “In less than threeand-half years we’ve already raised $515,000, passing the half way mark

toward achieving our goal. “On top of this, we’ve also collected close to 50,000 pounds of food for our local food banks.” Rennie described as phenomenal how the Peticton-based credit union’s employees, members and communities have embraced the campaign. “Unlike many large corporate giving programs, Feed the Valley isn’t funded by Valley First. The overwhelming majority of funds raised have come from our employees, members and community partners,” Rennie said. “All our supporters can take great pride in helping us achieve this $500,000 milestone.” The impact of Valley First’s Feed the Valley program has not gone unnoticed outside B.C.’s southern Interior. The program has been

recognized by the credit union system and financial partners as a leading corporate citizenship program. Valley First’s community leadership and the success of Feed the Valley have also been recognized by B.C. Premier Christy Clark. “Today marks a special day for Valley First and its Feed the Valley program,” said Clark. “I know how hard so many people have worked since Valley First launched this unique hunger fighting initiative across the Okanagan, Similkameen and Thompson valleys. “You set a goal. You continue to be focused on that goal. And now, you have come halfway, 18 months earlier than planned, by raising $500,000 for food banks in your region. “This is fabulous and it

Tennis Classic serves up ace for KGH Jim Couper CONTRIBUTOR

Wine, food, singing, marching pipe band, bocce tournament, raffles and a tribute—what does all this have to do with tennis and Kelowna General Hospital? The answer comes with the name, Celebrity Tennis Classic, a unique fund-raiser for the hospital, held Sept. 13, 14 and 15. Even those with marginal interest in tennis can enjoy the tournaments’ wide variety of entertainment and activities. Opening ceremonies take place on the home court of Walley and Marietta Lightbody—recent recipients of UBC Okanagan Alumni Community Builder Award—at 2302 Abbott Street. The excitement starts at 6 p.m. with all the aforementioned, except bocce, plus top tennis competition. One of the annual highlights is a doctors vs. lawyers grudge tennis match in which the lawyers are looking for revenge. The 12th annual event will stretch into the Sept. 13-15 weekend, with a lakeside bocce tournament on the Lightbody’s lawn at noon, Saturday. Those who enjoyed the Friday ceremonies and games of tennis will

On Sunday tennis continues on the Abbott Street court. The competition starts Friday at 5 p.m. and an hour later the Kelowna Pipe Band marches in the officials. Vocalist Anna Jacyszyn, accompanied by Bernie Addington on double bass, enhances the opening ceremonies. The duo performs regularly at the Jazz Cafe and has won numerous awards. Draw tickets for two trips to anywhere WestJet

flies, courtesy of WestJet Airlines, will be sold at the tennis events and are also available through KGH. Entry to the event is a $40 donation to the hospital and includes beer, wine, food, tennis, entertainment and an opportunity to toss bocce balls on the lakeside lawn on Saturday. Seating is limited to 200. Tickets are available at the court or throughwww.kghfoundation.com. Players wishing to compete can register at the same website. Every year the tournament honours someone in

the community who has made an outstanding contribution through tennis. This year’s honouree is Joachim Nierfeld, director of the recently completed Kelowna Futures Tournament. He promotes Little Aces tennis for children age 3 to 12 and received a Tennis Canada award for leadership. He has competed in Europe and represented Canada at three World Championship events and still represents Canada. Celebrity Tennis has raised more than $600,000 for cardiac equipment at KGH.

Money contributed this year by spectators and tournament participants will purchase neonatal cardiac and event monitors. In the case of the latter, children with heart problems now need to be sent to Vancouver so doctors can see exactly what is happening within their tiny chests. On Saturday evening a closing banquet at Coast Capri hotel features a huge silent auction. Up for bids is a signed racquet donated by Vernon professional Vasek Pospisil, who has competed at Wimbledon and Rogers Cup. As well as keeping the Lightbody’s home court hopping, the Tennis Classic expands, on Saturday, to the Mission Tennis Club where numerous players pay to compete in three levels of play.

Three people located after getting lost and stranded in the Greystokes area The Central Okanagan Search and Rescue group were able to find three people safely after they became stranded when their jeeps get stuck while exploring the Greystokes area. COSAR responded at 2 a.m. Monday morning to the distress call with nine members, two equipment trucks and four ATVs. Once the trio were located by using their GPS co-ordinates from one of their cell phones, COSAR members were able to ride into the area and see them safely extracted. The two males and one woman, along with a little dog, were cold, hungry and tired but otherwise okay

considering they spent the night outdoors without being prepared. Upon being rescued, one of the men told COSAR officials if it wasn’t for the information that was in the media last week about Search and Rescue groups in B.C. not charging for rescues, they probably would not have called. As it was, the cell phone they had was just about to die while they tried to call friends to help them out. “Lucky for COSAR, all the contacted people turned them down, so we only had to rescue three people instead of many more,” said Duane Tresnich, vice-president of Central Okanagan Search and Rescue.

Tresnich said COSAR wants to remind the public that search and rescue teams in B.C. do not charge for their services or present any type of bill for anyone that requires a rescue . “But a handshake or hug goes a long way,” Tresnich said. “You do not have to wait for 24 hours to report anyone missing. In fact the sooner the better. “If you feel that your loved ones have not returned home at the appointed time, contact the RCMP and let them know. The RCMP will contact the nearest search and rescue group and we will go and find them any time of day or night.”

Senate expenses beg questions

here can be no doubt Pamela Wallin has joined a select, but unenviable, group of senators, following fallout over her “troubling” travel expenses. The ostracized few—including fellow former Conservatives Mike Duffy and Patrick Brazeau—are no longer permitted to charge travel expenses other than direct flights to and from their home ridings. Wallin’s apparent habit of charging taxpayers for sidetrips to Toronto, while travelling be-

tween Saskatchewan and Ottawa, is part of a pattern that led auditors to call for her to repay more than $121,000 of her travel claims for 2009-’12. Wallin argues auditors used 2012 rules to evaluate pre-2012 expenses and suggests some discrepancies are a result of sloppy bookkeeping. Others suggest senators were given erroneous information when they assumed their duties. None of which alters the fact that Wallin—as a former high-profile TV personality, like

the previously disgraced Duffy – should have known the damage bad optics have done time and again to political figures, particularly when there is any suspicion of misuse of the public dime. It’s no secret that Wallin— like Duffy—was an appointee of Prime Minister Stephen Harper, and that both were vociferous in campaigning on behalf of his party. Could that have accounted for a certain sense of invulnerability on her part? While the Conservatives

have since done everything they can to distance themselves from Wallin, Harper has not escaped criticism for giving Wallin’s expenses a clean bill of health as recently as February. By May, Wallin was asked to resign from the Conservative caucus. But taxpayers could be forgiven for asking what changed about Wallin’s expense claims, between February and May, to alter Harper’s tune so dramatically on such an ardent— and presumably useful—supporter in the red chamber.

Pressure on the province to enhance job skills training

.C. Advanced Education Minister Amrik Virk has offered some advice for students heading for post-secondary education this fall. In a commentary sent to B.C. newspapers, Virk reminded students that his task “is to ensure post-secondary students obtain the experience and qualifications needed to put a paycheque in their back pocket.” B.C. is forecast to have one million jobs to fill by 2020, through a combination of retirements and eco-

nomic growth. More than 40 per cent of them will require trades and technical training, and for students, likely a move north. “My advice to stuTom dents is to look at Fletcher where the jobs are based and tailor their education and training to match,” Virk wrote. “Our population is concentrated in the Lower Mainland and southern Vancouver Island, but as a resource-based economy, many directly and indirectly related jobs are located elsewhere.”

VICTORIA VIEWS

That wasn’t the only blunt message for students deciding on a career. While defending his ministry’s spending plans in the recent legislature session, Virk described some of the problems that are entrenched. Parents, particularly in immigrant communities, push their children towards medicine, law, dentistry or engineering, he noted. Students themselves gravitate toward areas that are familiar to them, such as teaching. B.C. universities graduated 2,000 new teachers last year. Another 850 arrived from out of province and were licensed to teach in B.C. During the same year, the B.C. school system hired 800 teachers.

And many of those jobs were outside metropolitan areas. It’s been hammered into us by the B.C. government’s endless “jobs plan” advertising, and a similar campaign by Ottawa, that more students need to focus on trades and resource industries. Virk acknowledges that his budget contains another $1 million for advertising, the same as last year, much of it to reinforce the need to fill skilled jobs. But he danced around the question of whether there will be spaces in technical programs. NDP critics say the waiting list for these kinds of programs at Kwantlen University and B.C. Institute of Tech-

nology are running between a year F and three years. And they have frequently noted that advanced educa- p tion spending is budgeted to decline a by $42 million over the next three w years. t Virk said post-secondary institu- i tions working with industry have produced 456 additional seats in high-de- g mand programs for this year. It’s a a start. In July, Premier Christy Clark p joined the chorus of premiers prot testing Ottawa’s plan to claw back a $300 million in federal training money to provinces, for its new em- g d See Fletcher A9t

▼ CHEMTRAILS

Pilot discounts conspiracy theory craft have been flying above approximately 30,000 feet at our latitudes, contrails have been observed. In the Arctic, when the surface air temperature gets down to the minus 40 C range, these wispy ice crystals can be seen at low altitude. Even vehicle exhaust is more visible at low temperatures and can help in the formation of ice

fog. Think what happens when you breath out on a cold winter day as you see your warm breath condense into visible moisture. At typical airliner altitudes of 30,000 to 40,000 feet the temperature is fairly constant at minus 56 C. When the water vapour in the hot, compressed exhaust hits this cold air, it rapidly condenses into droplets which freeze. With the increasing amount

of air traffic at contrail forming altitudes, this may explain why this appears to be a more recent phenomenon. So what is a chemtrail? I would call a chemtrail the spray behind a crop dusting aircraft over a field spewing herbicide, insecticide or who knows what.

▼ CBC

Cynical view of mandate change

To the editor: It is sad, but telling, that MP Dan Albas defends Bill C-60 in so many pretty words—me thinks thou dost protest too much. The Broadcasting Act states that: “…the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, as the national public broadcaster, should provide radio and television services incorporating a wide range of programming that informs, enlightens and entertains;…the programming provided by the Corporation should: be predominantly and distinctively Canadian,reflect Canada and its regions to national and regional audiences, while serving the special needs of those regions,actively contribute to the flow and exchange of cultural expression, be in English and in French, reflecting the different needs and circumstances of each official language community, including the particular needs and circumstances of English and French linguistic minorities, strive to be of equivalent quality in English and French, contribute to shared national consciousness and identity, be made available through-

out Canada by the most appropriate and efficient means and as resources become available for the purpose, and reflect the multicultural and multiracial nature of Canada.” However, here is the resolution which will be in front of the Conservative Party at its convention. It want to modify “…The CBC -SRC is an important part of the broadcasting system in Canada. It must be a true public service broadcaster, relevant to Canadians. We will focus the CBC-SRC services on its mandates as public broadcasting services…” to “the Conservative Party believes that the CBC should: a) Move towards a user-supported model; and b) Make adjustments in it’s (sic) broadcasting model to recognize the vast changes that have happened in Canada’s electronic media sector and the role that a public broadcaster needs to play in it.” The Conservative government has consistently reduced the funds provided to the CBC, despite promises not to do so. I believe the Conservative Party aims, as is evident in the above resolu-

tion, to eliminate public funding for, and privatize, the CBC, thus annihilating CBC as we know it. As well, it aims to erase existing Conservative policy that recognizes the importance of the CBC. Fortunately, Canadians are unwilling to accept this decision: The Nanos national survey of 1,000 Canadians old enough to vote conducted between June 16 and 19, also probed attitudes about CBC funding, levels of satisfaction with the CBC’s national and regional services, and issues related to Canadian content and culture. Among the survey’s findings: • 79 per cent believe that the CBC plays an important role in protecting Canadian culture and identity • 80 per cent would ad-

Student loan program reviewed

ployer-driven Canada Jobs Grant. Clark and New Brunswick Premier David Alward were assigned to find an alternative to this drastic shift and report back in the fall. As usual, the NDP spent lots of time grilling Virk about student debt and the alleged need to reduce it. Ministry statistics show that about 30 per cent of students take out loans from the federal-provincial program, and the average is $20,000. One of the latest changes is a program of grants that go toward student debt as a reward for those who complete their chosen program.

vise their MP to maintain or increase CBC funding • 89 per cent believe the CBC president should not be appointed by the prime minister • 87 per cent think the prime pinister should not appoint members of the CBC board Mr. Albas should understand that the CBC is not just another Crown corporation or “everyday government agency.” The CBC has a national mandate which includes freedom from political interference. So it would appear the “urban legend” Mr. Albas referred to in his recent column is, in reality, the claim that the CBC is not under threat from the Conservative Party.

With 23,000 students collecting $41 million in grants, it might be working. For all the fuss about student debt, students pay only about a third of costs. The rest is on taxpayers, whether it produces any useful education or not. Virk is under instructions to review the student loan program “to find further improvements to meet students’ needs.” Given the magnitude of the gap between what skills our education system produces and what the economy needs, a larger shift in priorities is needed.

Take advantage of tax breaks that come with having children

ince its almost time to go back to school, I thought it would be a good time to discuss tax benefits and credits for children. While this article won’t discuss any tuition type benefits, There is the Canada Child Tax Benefit which is a tax free benefit for families with children under the age of 19. It consists of a basic benefit, a supplement and a disability portion. A family may not qualify for all three parts of the benefit. It is based on family income and is reduced if the family income is greater than $43,561. You can apply for the Child Tax Benefit through the Canada Revenue Agency website by filling out form RC66. Next there is a taxable benefit called the Universal Child Care Bene-

BEHIND THE COUNTER

Gabriele Banka fit, which consists of a monthly payment of $100 for every child under six years-old. At the end of the year, this benefit is taxable and must be included on a tax return. It can be included on the parent’s tax return or on the child’s tax return. You will automatically get the UCCB if you have applied for the CCTB, whether you qualified for the CCTB or not. If you are not getting this benefit and would like to, you can apply using form RC66 on the Canada Revenue website.

There is also the taxfree B.C. family bonus if you have more than two children that will also be paid automatically to you if your annual family income is less than $21,480. The spouse with the lowest net income must claim the child care expenses, unless that person was enrolled in an educational program, had a mental or physical impairment, served time in jail, or there was a marriage breakdown. Expenses that were incurred by someone that was related to you by blood, marriage, common law or adoption cannot be claimed. Some types of childcare expenses that can be claimed include nursery schools and day care centres, educational institutions that provide day care services, day camps and day sports schools that

provide child care services, boarding schools where lodging is involved and independent day care providers. The person or organization providing the day care must have a business number or a social insurance number and must provide this number to you on their receipt. The receipt can be in your name or in the name of your spouse and is deductible on either return, based on lowest income. If the expense could be considered childcare, as well as the child tax fitness amount or the child tax art amount, the expense must first be claimed as a childcare expense and if there is any amount remaining, that amount can then be claimed as one of the tax credits. On the tax credit side, Line 367 allows a non-refundable tax credit for each child under 18 years old that lived with you throughout the entire year.

Your accountant will determine whether this tax credit should go on your return or on your spouses return depending on other factors. Deduction of the child fitness non-refundable tax credit (Line 365) has some requirements. The child must be under 16 years of age (18 if disabled), the program must be supervised and a minimum of eight weeks or more than fivedays if a child’s camp and must require a significant amount of physical activity by the child. Horseback riding would qualify, but ATV riding would not. The child arts non-refundable tax credit’s (Line 370) requirements are much the same as the fitness tax credit except that instead of a physical requirement, the requirement would be one of the following—development of creative skills in the arts or cultural activity; a focus on nature or the environment; helps to de-

Two companies start joint venture in Kelowna

Atomic Cartoons has entered a joint venture agreement with the Kelowna-based animation studio Yeti Farm Creative expected to create more local jobs in what remains a growing industry in B.C. The exclusive three-year deal will be worth up to $3 million in production value, offers expanding television animation production capabilities for Atomic in Kelowna. “We’re very pleased to be able to springboard from our long-time success in the Vancouver marketplace and to expand production into Kelowna, a growing and vibrant animation market within BC,” said Rob Simmons, a partner in Atomic Cartoons. “Kelowna offers a natural extension to our work, and a supportive business and lifestyle environment. Having committed and experienced partners in Yeti Farm Creative is a great approach to the Okanagan for Atomic.” Yeti Farm will collaborate in the production of two Atomic Cartoons children’s animated television series, including Leo award-winning Rocket Monkeys, currently scoring rave reviews on Teletoon in Canada and Nickelodeon in the U.S. Starting in February, Yeti Farm will also be engaged in producing Pirate Express, Atomic’s own original animated comedy television series. The fun-filled pirate show for kids ages 7 to 11 is set for broadcast on Teletoon in the fall of 2014 and Nine Network Australia in 2015. “We’re thrilled with this opportunity for expansion, which will enable us to further cultivate our existing crew, getting us to 35 crew members in total. Atomic Cartoons couldn’t be a better partner to work with,” said Todd Ramsay, founder and owner of Yeti Farm Creative. “Being from Kelowna, having spent the last decade in the Vancouver animation industry, I’m really excited to help grow the industry in my home town.” “We’ve worked hard to make Kelowna an attractive market for the animation industry, particularly television production,” added Jon Summerland, the Okanagan film commissioner. “It’s a very win win proposition for the strong animation industry in Vancouver and it’s wonderful to see Atomic capitalize on this opportunity and help our local studios grow.” Yeti Farm Creative, a Kelowna based animation firm founded by Ramsay in 2007, will be hiring 30 more staff as a result of the joint venture with Atomic Cartoons.

Working longer reduces the risk of dementia setting in I

f you’re waiting for an early retirement, my column today may be a disappointing one. A new study shows people who delay retirement may significantly reduce their risk of Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. This study of roughly 500,000 French seniors was by far the largest of its kind and presented at this year’s Alzheimer’s Association international conference in Boston. Results showed that for each additional year of work, the risk of dementia is reduced by just over three per cent. The research was conducted by the French government and examined health records of elderly people who had mostly been shopkeepers or craftsmen. On average, those studied were 74 years old and had been retired 12 years. Almost three percent had developed dementia and the risk was tied to age of retirement. Those who retired at 65 had a 15 percent lower risk than those who rei n

tired at 60. These results are perhaps not surprising since we have known for some time that physical and mental activity and a sense of purpose have a protective effect on the brain. Remaining engaged in a job can help in all three areas as well as helping to remain socially connected. In past columns I have also written about remaining engaged in the world whether or not one continues to work at a paid job. It is not certain whether this study compared paid work to those who remain very connected and purpose-driven in volunteer positions or other activities that may provide similar stimulation.

I think there is enough evidence now to suggest that one of the worst things we can do in terms of our aging brain is to simply retire in the most literal sense of the word. Retreating from the world—ceasing a job in favour of relaxing in an armchair all day. I think that concept is not very attractive to most aging people today anyway. We no longer live in a time when a person is elderly at age 65. Many are still very healthy and fit, definitely not armchair bound. Although this was a ripe old age a couple of generations ago, the 60s now are really part of the middle age period and I think should be treated as such. My advice is to continue living life to the fullest no matter what your age. If you enjoy your work and are able to continue it, don’t let a number on a calendar determine when you will stop. If you do stop working in a paid career, whether

SENIORS

Buffet lunch for Lake Country seniors The Lake Country Wheels to Meals program will undergo a change in September, to be hosted by the Lake Country Seniors Society. The program will be changed to the Lake Country Seniors Buffet lunch, replacing the traditional program that in recent years has seen a decline in demand

and the loss of a program to provide meal service to seniors’ homes. The seniors buffet initiative will be Tuesdays, noon, at the Lake Country Seniors Center, starting Sept. 10 For more information, contact Dorothy Dussault by email at doso@telus. net or call 250-766-4568)

Sister city relationship remains strong Close to 40 Kelowna Veendam Sister City Association members gathered Aug. 11 at City Park for the annual membership picnic. The annual gathering showcased a cross-section of local residents who support the sister city relationship between Kelowna and Veendam, in the Netherlands. Since the relationship

was fostered between the two cities in 1980, it has resulted in many cultural, education, civic and reciprocal citizen exchange trips. Local residents have participated in several Liberation of the Netherlands celebrations, a student exchange program has seen 42 Kelowna and Veendam students participate in a 12-month ex-

change, and 24 Kelowna war veterans have been invited guest to Veedam’s Liberation of Holland festivities. Among the picnic attendees at the City Park picnic shown in the photo above have been guests of Veendam since the veterans exchange program started in 1985. Their ages from 90 to 94 and all are still active in the sister city

association. Plans are underway for a Kelowna delegation to visit Veendam in May 2015 to participate in the 70th Liberation of The Netherlands celebration. Part of the delegation will be representatives from city hall, the sister city association, school exchange students and a class of 20 students from KLO Middle School.

Gerotechnology brings added peace of mind to elder care

he demographics of our aging population will be burgeoning tremendously over the coming years. The numbers are so staggering, that the reality of what this means to our healthcare system and to families who are now taking on more responsibility in an elder care role, is a topic calling for some new coping strategies. The B.C. Ombudson Report: The Best of Care: Getting It Right For B.C. Seniors’ cites that people over the age of 65 will grow from 676,000 to an estimated 1,324,000 over the next 20 years in our province. Another survey reveals that 90 per cent of the seniors interviewed indicate that they want to stay in their own home (B.C. Community Action for Seniors Independence Report). This desire leaves many families wanting to respect the wishes of their elder loved one to remain at home as long as possible, but at the same time, feeling uncertain about how to cope with the increasing demands of care and support that is often required for the older senior. As an example, I remember many times a late night trip over the bridge from West Kelowna to my own mom’s home in central Kelowna was preferable to a sleepless night worrying because I was unable to reach her on the phone. With all of the advancing technology that is available, I began to wonder if anything had been developed that could give the escalating number of informal caregivers in Canada more peace of mind. Through lengthy research, I discovered a wealth of information and insight on the emergence of a new field of science called gerotechnology. What does gerotechnology mean? It’s an interdisciplinary field that examines the relationships between older adults and new technology. It encompasses the aspirations for older persons by using technology to enhance full social participation, safety and good health while living independently to an advanced age. It would appear that within this science lies an exciting new paradigm towards the coming tsunami that we will be facing demographically.

SENIORS’ One example of the technology that CONCERNShas emerged is a remote monitoring sys-

tem, now available in Kelowna that allows a family member to monitor a frailer senior from wherever the caregiver is located. Right now, my 91-year-old mom has just moved in with me. When I am workMarjorieing, I worry about her safety. Horne She has suffered three falls resulting in debilitating fractures in the past. I have set up motion sensors that notify me by text, phone and/or email, if they have not picked up any movement in our home for a three hour period. I can then look in on mom via a pan and tilt camera on my iPad to be sure that she is okay. It is an added safeguard, should she not press her emergency response pendant in the case of a fall. Door contacts can also be set up with notifications to both myself and my husband if she goes outside. I now have my two sisters, one living in Vancouver and one in Montreal, checking in on mum via the system dashboard that is password accessible online, allowing them to feel more involved in her care. A medication monitor utilizing a sensoring device, camera and non-compliance notifications to caregivers, is another device available that can be connected into the leased system. My mom feels well taken care of and appreciates the frequent check-ins. The added peace of mind for us as a family is immeasurable. Change does not always come easy, no matter what our age. Moving towards greater social connectedness, interdependence, prevention and person-centred care as we honour those in our society who are aging, requires new thinking and new ideas. Love is always the best resource for supporting our loved ones in aging well, but added tools that come in the form of technological advances in elder care can be a great benefit and worth looking into. More information can be found at www.caresmart.ca. Marjorie Horne is an elder care consultant and president of CareSmart Seniors Consulting Inc. 250-863-9577 marjorie@caresmart.ca

BRIEFS PIRATE PAK DAY

Thousands of guests across B.C. and Alberta visited their local White Spot restaurant last week for the annual Pirate Pak Day fundraiser, helping Canada’s longest-running restaurant chain raise a record $65,916 to send kids and youth with special needs to Zajac Ranch for Children. White Spot donated $2.00 from each Kids and Adult Pirate Pak sold—plus contributions received in lieu of Pirate Paks—to Zajac Ranch, an established B.C. charity that gives children and young adults with life-threatening illnesses and chronic disabilities an unforgettable camp experience. With the sixth annual Pirate Pak Day concluded, the initiative has raised a total of $268,386 and sent 160 kids to summer camp since the program began in 2008, helping provide an unforgettable and empowering experience.

GOLF FUNDRAISER

The 23rd annual Capri Charity Golf Classic was held in support of the programs and services provided by the Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs. Thie tournament was held at The Harvest Golf Club, raising some $50,000. More than 50 per cent of kids attending the Boys and Girls Clubs come from low income families and attend programs thanks to sponsorships and reduced registration fees. Fundraising events like this tournament are essential to help support these children and youth in our community. For over 50 years the Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs has been a leading provider of programs to children and youth that support the healthy physical, educational and social development of over 6,000 young people and their families each year.

▼ ENTREPRENEURS

Drive staff to think results over routine I t seems from reading in all the research literature available that no matter what kind of organization—from small companies to home-based businesses to large corporations—employees can become entrepreneurial-style owners. They become responsible for more than just keeping a job. They’re emotionally and intellectually vested in making every minute count toward achieving their goals of the organization created and their own complementary career aspirations. With that entrepreneurial mindset, these employees are driven more by results than routine. Both the company created and the individual entrepreneur may reap immediate benefits in profit, performance and sense of purpose when people are encouraged and taught to use their ingenuity, invest themselves in their work and expect exponential results for their effort. With that in mind then, let’s bring in the dimension of entrepreneur-

ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT

Joel Young ial leadership into the mix. Because a huge part of becoming an entrepreneurial leader is learning to simplify complexity so that your entrepreneurial team staff members can both act with self-confidence in the tasks assigned to them, and with the innovative and creative juices that one might logically expect given the atmosphere of new venture inspiration. So how will you know that idea of entrepreneurial thinking has kicked in and taken hold? I have come to the realization that you’ll know when you begin to think and act like the unusual people we might call habitual entrepreneurs. These are the entrepreneurs who have made careers out of creat-

ing new ventures, some working within existing businesses and some in independent start-ups. They all have in common finely honed skills in forging the beguiling entrepreneurial opportunity from uncertainty. My research over the years has taught me and distilled my observations somewhat of this entrepreneurial mindset. Our point is to attempt in our journey to recognize how they think, how they behave and exactly what it is they do so extremely well. They truly capitalize on uncertainty rather than avoid it, and create simplicity where others see complexity. They embrace learning that comes from taking calculated risks. These special entrepreneur types, as I might call them, recognize that when opportunities are fleeting, it is sometimes more expensive to be slow rather than to be wrong. As a consequence of this, they will find solutions that are roughly right it seems rather than

consume time developing an analytically correct but a lot slower answer to a perceived issue item. (In writing this column and meeting and interviewing a few hundred existing and aspiring entrepreneurs, I can safely say this item is extremely predominant.) However, this special grouping of the entrepreneur has an immense amount of insight and experience to offer you and me. They passionately seek new opportunities in a wide range of paths. They pursue opportunities with enormous discipline, which allow us tremendous learning through observation. They pursue only the very best opportunities and avoid exhausting themselves by simply chasing. They focus on execution, that is to say – taking action toward results instead of analyzing every step along the way to its death. Yet they are very adaptive to change directions if required in exploiting the best oppor-

of the Central and South

Okanagan / Similkameen tunity for them. Finally, they engage the energies of absolutely everyone within their domain, involving people both internally and externally to their sphere of reference in pursuit of the dream opportunity for them. They are excellent at creating and sustaining networks of relationships rather than going it alone, making the most of the intellectual and other resources offered in their journey and, in turn, helping those people to achieve their goals as well These are some of the absolute keys to the entrepreneurial mindset that I have uncovered through my research. It is what unlocks the potential of people working today, and open the doors of unlimited possibility in their worlds for the future.

Women: Invest in your retirement

here are many different types of investing and saving options for women. Investing can be done with equities, real estate, a business or the time and effort involved in nurturing and caring for a family. Twenty-five per cent of women in Canada invest a large portion of their wealth in a business at some time during their lifetime. Business ownership can be for financial gain or for the purpose related to a personal cause. Other women spend time and energy in their chosen career. Real estate investing can be the purchase of a home to live in but can also involve investing in a second property(s) for income purposes or for the capital appreciation when the property is eventually sold. Real estate can be seen and touched and easily understood. Women invest in their families. The time and energy spent on our families is key to passing along our values and con-

FISCAL FITNESS

Doreen Smith tributing to the well-being of others. Women are primary care givers for children and elderly parents. Women typically make less income than men and are often out of the work force for multiple years taking care of children or other family members. Over a lifetime when women earn less than men, this results in reduced Canada Pension Plan retirement income, employer pensions and accumulated retirement income. Women benefit from understanding about money and finance. Increased knowledge is increased power. With an increased comfort level when discussing money and investing, knowledge will quickly grow.

Studies show many women lack confidence when it comes to making investment decisions. You want to grow your confidence level so you can make informed decisions about your money. Even the language associated with finance and money can sound complex to the point of intimidation. Getting the basics under control is easier than one might think. It is important to deal with a person who you feel comfortable with in asking questions to and discussing options with. If you don’t feel comfortable, interview several advisors until you meet someone who you are comfortable with. It is very important to control personal debt. Review how much all debt is costing you in interest costs. Pay off the highest debt on a priority basis. A budget can quickly get you on track to being on top of where you are at financially. Understand what you spend. Anything you save has the potential to grow.

There are two basic types of savings: short term (emergency fund, upcoming expenses) and long term (investing for retirement). There’s a simple way to start both your shortterm and long-term savings plans. Get started with a nofee, no-interest daily savings accounts. For long-term investing needs, talk to a Certified Financial Planner. Money should be saved / invested and you want to develop a comfort level and achieve your financial goals. Women, on average, live longer than men and therefore may need more retirement saving to fund a longer retirement. Spending and saving are topics we are can chat about with family, friends and a certified financial planner to ensure financial security during our lifetime and in retirement.

School Supplies.... Let the race begin! And they’re off: the race to buy school supplies has begun. That’s right, the time has come to head out to the stores, with your list at the ready, in search of school supplies, clothing, backpacks, and lunch boxes. After all, you want your children to have everything they need for the school year and for their teacher’s class list. Here are a few tips to help you stay calm during all the tumult. First of all, carefully examine the list of supplies requested by the school. These detailed lists can be big orders to fill, so start

early, take your time, and do it right. Some stores organize their school supply section based on the lists supplied by the schools, while others offer personalized help in finding items on the list.

have to go shopping yet again and pay the full price. Keep in mind that selecting products of a lesser quality could cause you a few headaches if they break or wear out too quickly. What you should be looking for is the best quality/price ratio.

To save yourself some money, you could check the flyers of the various stores before leaving home. You could also buy some items, such as pencils, pads of paper, and exercise books, in larger quantities. That way you’ll have everything at hand if your children run out during the school year — you won’t

Lastly, include your children in this shopping trip if they express the desire to accompany you, but be sure to set certain limits before you leave home. Let them know if there is a budget for extras, and if not, remind them that they are meant to be helpers rather than shoppers.

bout 25 per cent of Canada’s population have jobs that require shift work. Being constantly tired is a typical complaint of shift workers, often described as “jet lag.” Shift work can also lead to health problems

such as insomnia, chronic fatigue and gastrointestinal disorders, and can interfere with regular social activities and family life. The body is naturally attuned to a circadian rhythm—many of our body’s functions follow a daily rhythm or a 24-hour

cycle. Sleeping, waking, digestion, secretion of adrenalin, body temperature, blood pressure, pulse and many other important body functions and human behaviour are regulated by this 24-hour cycle. These rhythmical pro-

cesses are synchronized to allow for high activity during the day and low activity at night. However, if a person is working at night, the body rhythms get out of sync with the person’s activity pattern. This disorientation can lead to feelings

of fatigue and disorientation, which are the jet lag symptoms. Also, exposure to light at night can alter sleep-activity patterns and suppress melatonin production, leading to insomnia or difficulty sleeping. Frequent changes in

BCUOMA is a not-for-profit organization that encourages British Columbians to responsibly recycle used oil, oil filters, oil containers, used antifreeze and antifreeze containers. Since the launch of the program in 2003, British Columbians have done an exceptional job of recycling their used oil materials.

ONE DROP MAKES A DIFFERENCE.

BCUOMA is expanding its successful ambassador program this summer – with two teams of ambassadors touring the province to educate and raise awareness of the importance of used oil and antifreeze recycling. By recycling your used oil and antifreeze products, you’re playing an important role in preserving our environment for future generations.

schedule and disruption to circadian rhythms can lead to chronic fatigue and other health problems, including being a higher risk for heart attack and cardiovascular conditions, digestive problems such as indigestion, heartburn, stomach ache and loss of appetite, and insomnia or sleeping disorders. Shift work can also interfere with medications and the medical treatment of some diseases. Because of the way that shift work disrupts the circadian rhythm, research suggests long-term shift work may also increase the risk of cancer. Shift workers are also at risk of eating a less healthy diet because the loss of appetite at night often leads to increased snacking on junk food, while fatigue may encourage the consumption of caffeinated drinks to help the worker stay awake. Acupuncture can give stellar results for improving the wellbeing and quality-of-life of shift workers. Acupuncture is very effective for many of the symptoms that accompany shift work. It can improve energy and mental clarity, resolve insomnia, and correct digestive disorders. It can also help shift workers adjust to changes in schedules or days off and help the body bounce back more quickly. Research has shown that acupuncture can influence many systems within the body, including our hormones, our neurotransmitters, our immune system, our blood pressure, and our circulation, helping to correct any functions that are out of balance or not working properly. What this means is that acupuncture may help the body to get back into its normal circadian rhythm, and help these rhythms to adjust more quickly to changes in the daily routines. One of the biggest changes that shift workers notice with acupuncture is a boost in their energy levels. There is a huge improvement in quality of life that accompanies this change. Indeed, many people find that with regular treatments, shift work no longer has to take a huge toll on their personal life. James Kaufman is a registered acupuncturist in Kelowna.

Champness wins Apple Triathlon, narrow miss for Elmore Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

If only Malindi Elmore had known how close she was to grabbing gold, the former Olympian assures she would have pushed a smidgen harder over the last few metres. As it was, the 32-yearold from Kelowna settled for second best, a mere two seconds back of winner Sarah MacArthur of Calgary in the women’s Olympic-distance race Sunday at the 31st annual Pushor Mitchell Apple Triathlon. Elmore, who was also runner-up last year, completed the 1.5 km swim, 40 km bike ride and 10 km run in two hours 15 minutes and 30 seconds.

MacArthur finished in 2:15:28. Because the two racers went off in different waves, neither had any idea how close they were to the winning time. “I knew I was at the front of my wave, so I just wanted to run comfortably and finish the race strong,” Elmore said. “If I had known there was someone two seconds ahead of me, I definitely would have sprinted the last 100 metres…but at that point it’s a figurative person, so what can you do.” Still, Elmore was pleased with the final result, bettering her mark from 2012 by close to three minutes. “That’s a good

Malindi Elmore improvement for me,” she said. “Right now, I’m doing this mostly for fun but I’m still very competitive and of course I want to do well.” Vernon’s Nathan Champness won the Apple Triathlon’s Olympic distance overall title for the first time.

SHERWOOD PARK’S Sloan D’Etremont leads a pack of riders along Bertram Street during the Pushor Mitchell Apple Tritahlon Sunday in Kelowna.

Champness, who was second last year and third in 2011, was the only competitor to break the two-hour barrier with a clocking of 1:59:39. It’s been a good summer for Champness who previously won the Desert Half Iron in Osoyoos and the Kal Rats Sprint in Vernon. Victoria’s Carlos Lesser was second in 2:00:49, while Ryan Smiley of Vancouver was third in 2:02:39. Penticton’s Tom Evans, a former threetime winner at the Apple and an ex-Ironman Canada champ, settled for sixth place overall while winning the men’s 45 to 49 age division in 2:03:05. While not quite as fast as he once was, the 45-year-old Evans still loves competing at the Apple. “This race is always great and that’s why I come back,” Evans said. “Good attendance, good organization, the volunteers, and the venue is perfect. It’s just an amazing event, no issues any time I’ve been here. I really enjoy it here.” Kelowna’s Joe Wessel won the men’s 35-39 grouping in 2:08:29 and was 15th overall. Lake Country’s Quinn Middleton won the men’s 18-19 category in 2:22:56, Kelowna’s Jack Wessel took the men’s 6569 division in 2:37:33, Laurelee Nelson was first in the women’s 55 to 59 in 2:38:06.

Sun overcomes sluggish in win over Kamloops Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER

With the exception of two quarters of shaky football by the offense, Okanagan Sun head coach Shane Beatty was mostly pleased with his club’s effort Saturday night in Kamloops. After sputtering its way to just two points over the opening 30 minutes, the Sun erupted for a trio of second half touchdowns en route to a 23-8 BCFC win over the Broncos at Hillside Stadium. After a few adjustments at the break, it didn’t take long for the Sun offense to find its rhythm, scoring on three of five possessions. “(Kamloops) came out with a good game plan, sending seven or eight guys after us,” said Beatty. “It took some time to adjust, but at halftime coach (Nat) Nagy and I made some changes and the guys came out and executed. We were patient

and it worked out. Three touchdowns on five possessions is pretty good.” Mistakes were the Sun’s Achilles in the first half as they surrendered four turnovers on downs and another on one of two fumbles by Dillon Fortune. Rookie quarterback Theo Deezar had a tentative first half of his own, but then found his stride and fired a trio of touchdown passes—one each to Tommy Howes, Thomas Huber and Deion Bain. Howes led the receiving corps with nine catches for 123 yards. “He’s a special player and a special kid,” Beatty said of Howes, the 22-year-old from Winnipeg. For the fourth week in a row, Beatty lauded the play of the Sun defense which has yielded just 47 points this season. Robbie Yochim, Jack Rush and Brandon Donkers had interceptions, while Brennan Van Nis-

telrooy, Jonas Gering and Terrence Mendes grabbed fumble recoveries. JT Fernandez led the charge with seven tackles and Zak Ironstand recorded a sack. “I was very pleased with our defense, the guys are doing a great job on that side of the ball,” Beatty said. “We’re fast and physical and we’re giving other teams problems.” Next up for Beatty and the Sun are the defending BCFC champion Langley Rams. The Rams (4-0) bring their unbeaten record into the Apple Bowl this Saturday night. “They’re very explosive on offense and our defense is playing very well, so it should be a barnburner,” Beatty said. In other BCFC action over the weekend, the Rams drubbed Westshore Rebels 58-20, while the Vancouver Island Raiders dropped the Valley Huskers 56-3.

big camp and this year is one of the biggest,” said Lorne Frey, the Rockets director of player personnel and head scout. “Our idea with having a big camp is to see as many kids as we can. We try to invite as many local kids as we can and we try to invite the kids that were on the bubble in last year’s draft but didn’t get drafted. We’ve done it this way for years and we’ve been happy with it.” Included in the players that will be hitting the ice are the majority of the 12 players drafted in the 2013 WHL Bantam Draft. The only player not coming is second-round pick Cal Foote, the son of former NHLer Adam, who is injured and unable to attend. Frey says they will be looking for how far kids all of the kids in camp have developed since they were scouted last season. “We want to see how they’ve progressed,” he said. “Some may have

grown two or three inches and that’s all they needed. They are bigger, stronger and faster.” With 180 kids and 10 teams it will be a busy few days for Rockets scouts as they look at prospects that could be protected on the team’s 50-man list and eventually make the WHL team. Frey says it all starts at rookie camp. “Every year at this camp we usually find some players that we are very pleased with and we will either add to our list or certainly follow them through their season,” he said. Rockets rookie camp begins Wednesday night with player registration, while games will be played Thursday, Friday and Saturday starting at 7:30 a.m. Kelowna’s main train-o ing camp begins Aug. 26b and the team plays its first2 WHL exhibition gamet Aug. 30 at Prospera Place.H

OMSC Lake Monsters conquer the English Channel

Five local relay team swimmers, dubbed the Okanagan Masters Swim Club (OMSC) Lake Monsters, recently conquered the treacherous English Channel in a remarkable time of 13 hours and 41 minutes. ‘ The team, made up of recent world masters winner Mike Stamhuis, Phred Martin, Denise Cesselli, Tracey Sutton and Leora Dahl, swam 21 miles from Dover, England to Calais, France. Each athlete swam an hour at a time and battled wild waves, jelly fish, currents and physical and mental fatigue. The team endured seven days of poor weather before conditions favored an attempt of the famed crossing. “I was told that I was closer to France at the 20 minute mark of my swim than I was at the end of my hour,” team member K Leora Dahl wrote on her blog. “The current had dragged me backward to-

wards England, so that even though I swam 1.8 miles, by the end of the hour we were only 0.6 miles closer to France.” Brent Hobbs, the

They battled very strong currents, cold waters, jellyfish and ocean swells in the middle of the Channels.” For the full story, visit Leora Dahl’s blog www. leoraenglishchannel.com.

Originally from Edmonton, the 29-yearold Richdale qualified for Canada’s premier women’s tournament by capturing a CN Canadian Tour event earlier this season in Tsawwassen. She is one of 14 Canadians entered in the tournament which will begin Thursday at the Royal Mayfair Golf Club. Richdale is playing this season on the Symetra Tour where she finished

tied for 43rd at the latest event, the Eagle Classic, in Richmond, Virginia. Richdale finished at 3-over 219 (71-73-75).

CAPRI CHARITY GOLF

The 23rd annual Capri Charity Golf Classic once again scored big for the Okanagan Boys and Girls Clubs. The annual tournament last week at the Harvest Golf Club raised more than $50,000 for the local charity. The event featured 18 holes of golf at the one of the Okanagan’s top championship courses, lunch,

dinner and prizes, all in support of the kids. The day culminated with several companies including Chutter Underwriting Services, RWAM and Telus contributing additional sponsorship towards the event. More than 50 per cent of kids attending the Boys and Girls Clubs come from low income families and attend programs thanks to sponsorships and reduced registration fees. Fundraising events like this tournament are essential to help support these children and youth in our community.

CAPTAIN ID#300843

ADULT GERMAN SHEPHERD X NEUTERED MALE

egister now for:

Captain came to us as a stray. We have learned that he has some basic commmands, he loves people (he is a leaner), has very good walking skills & looks for positive reinforcement. He enjoys running and the freedom of open spaces. It would be a benefit if his new owner was experienced with the breed or has done extensive research on their traits. Captain is not suited to a home with cats or children, so if you can provide him with an ADULT ONLY environment, come down & meet him.

YOUNG ADULT BORDER COLLIE/ LAB RETRIEVER X NEUTERED MALE

Buddy is a fun-loving friendly boy who loves to play fetch and run, so playing “fetch” games is something he really enjoys. He listens well and we believe he would excel at agility training. He enjoys the company of most dogs & would do well in an active home, where he be a part of lots of walks, runs or hiking. He is just waiting for the right home, so if you are looking for a playmate ask the staff to set up a one-on-one meeting.

YOUNG ADULT DOMESTIC MED HAIR SPAYED FEMALE

Kinga is a young girl with a zest for life! She raised a beautiful litter of kittens, which displayed her loving nature. She gets along well with everybody, but is still a little unsure of other cats. She loves to socialize and interact with people, and her happiness is infectious! If you feel you can provide Kinga with a loving home, please ask the staff for an introduction...she will be happy to meet you.

ADULT DOMESTIC SHORT HAIR NEUTERED MALE

Charlie is seeking a long term, calm, caring companion to spend the rest of his life with. He would prefer a home with NO children as he tends to like the calmer side of life. He loves to snuggle and is ready to offer you a lifetime of love and joy whether its watching TV with you, or taking a nap on your lap...he’s your man. If you have the perfect home for this beautiful boy, come down and spend some time getting to know him.

JUST LAUNCHED! To report an animal in distress… call

TOLL FREE ANIMAL CRUELTY HOTLINE 1-855-622-7722

Hooch is a very big boy who thinks he is a lap dog & loves attention. He is friendly with people and will lean in for a good scratch. He is good with other dogs & has lived with cats. Due to his size he is not suitable for young children & his new owners need extensive experience with large-breed dogs. He would benefit from continued socializing & will require slow introduction to being left alone, or not at all if possible. Please speak to a staff member for more info.

(BC SPCA) The call centre is open 7 days a week from 8am - 7:30pm. If there is an animal emergency outside of these hours, please contact your local .

ADULT JACK RUSSELL TERRIER X NEUTERED MALE

Billy is a mature boy who loves to run & interact with people & dogs. He enjoys chasing a ball, but hasn’t mastered the art of returning it. He is comical & definetely shows the traits of a Jack, with his own unique personality...and he enjoys being cuddled. If you feel that Billy would make a good addition to your household, & you have experience with his breed or know what to expect, please ask the staff to set up and oneon-one meeting.

ID#304156

ADULT LAB RETRIEVER X SPAYED FEMALE

Tehya was surrendered because her owner downsized & it would not have been fair to keep a large active dog. She is curious & friendly, knows basic commands, & it is strongly recommended she go to a home that can provide her with lots of exercise & room to run & play. She is good with older children, and being young she will need to be kept in shape to stay healthy. If you have room in your home & your heart for this sweet girl, ask the staff for a meeting.

ADULT COONHOUND X NEUTERED MALE

Rocket is a handsome boy, a little shy at first, and we have no background on him. His breed is generally even tempered, outgoing and friendly...which he is! They are also expressive and courageous. He will need to go to an owner that has experience with the breed or has done their research on the breed. Rocket would do best in a home where he can work & use his talents. If you would like to meet him, ask the staff for a private meeting.

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen simple greens We’re at the peak of summer’s bounty of produce with a wide range of locally-grown fruits and vegetables available to inspire us to put fresh, local, healthy meals on the table. A quick tour of the local farmers’ market is enough to make a food lover swoon, with the variety of fresh foods, from corn and melons to tomatoes and greens, berries and cherries to the first summer apples and peaches. It’s been hot the past six weeks or so, which melons, peppers, tomatoes and lots of other produce love, so many of them are early this year and sweet as can be. It’s a grand time of year to enjoy eating healthy, with all the makings for various salads fresh and full of flavour, and lots of fruit and vegetables calling out to be eaten for every meal of the day. Harvest continues in the valley through September and this year you’ll be able to harvest more than just fresh produce. The first Okanagan Food, Wine and Film Festival is set for Sept. 13 to 15 at the Rotary Centre’s Mary Irwin Theatre, where you’ll be able to taste the food and wine from each film at the event. Over the weekend, there’ll be a series of award-winning food and wine documentaries, beginning with the master sommelier exam film SOMM, with an introduction by Ingo Grady, director of wine education at Mission Hill Family Estate. Other features include Betting the Farm, A Matter of Taste, The Restaurateur and Pressure Cooker, which will be introduced by Chef Geoffrey Couper, culinary arts instructor at Okanagan College. For details, go to: www.okfoodwinefest.com Tickets are available exclusively through the film festival office at: Christina@okfoodwinefilmfest.com For more recipes using fresh, local ingredients, in season, pick up a copy of my book, Jude’s Kitchen at bookstores or wine boutiques.

Den's Seafood Salad Crisp and fresh, lean and light, this salad is perfect for hot summer days and it’s very flexible. Make it as a dressed salad over big salad leaves, or a mix of greens or lettuce; or wrap it up in a lettuce leaf or a tortilla for a fist food dinner. Pair this with the fruit-forward Intrigue Wines 2012 Riesling with its delightfully luscious flavours, and well-balanced acidity. 2 green onions 1 stalk of celery 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh parsley 1 tbsp. (15 ml) mayonnaise 1 tbsp. (15 ml) cream cheese 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) lemon juice sea salt and fresh-ground pep-

per, to taste 1/4 lb. (120 g) crab or shrimp 2 tbsp. (30 ml) fresh raw peas Mince green onions, celery and parsley. Combine mayonnaise, cream cheese, lemon juice and parsley until well-mixed in a medium-sized bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Mix in the green onions, celery and parsley and then gently fold in the crab meat, shrimp or other seafood and most of the peas. Garnish with a few of the fresh, raw green peas or some parsley. Serves 2.

Ham, Spinach & Spud Casserole This is very tasty and can very easily be varied according to what’s available and what your family likes. It’s a meal in one dish so very convenient. You could add grated carrot and other vegetables if you like. 1/2 lb. (227 g) ham 1 onion 1 large russet potato 2 c. (500 ml) spinach 1 c. (250 ml) cheese 1 tbsp. (15 ml) butter 1 tbsp. (15 ml) flour pinch of paprika salt and pepper, to taste 1/2 c. (125 ml) milk dash of Worcestershire sauce Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Chop ham into half-inch dice; thinly slice onion, scrubbed potatoes and fresh spinach; and grate cheddar

or other cheese of your choice. Lightly spray a casserole dish with oil and arrange one-third of the potato slices on the bottom of the dish, followed by half the onions, half the spinach and a third of the cheese. Sprinkle half of the bits of the butter over it, then half the flour and a little paprika, salt and pepper. Repeat with another third of the potato slices, the remainder of the onions, half the remaining cheese and the rest of the spinach. Finish off the bits of butter and the flour and a little more paprika, salt and pepper. Top with the remaining potato slices and top with the rest of the cheese. Combine the milk and Worcestershire sauce and pour over the top. Bake, covered, for about 30 minutes, then remove the lid and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 20 or 25 minutes longer. Serves 2-3.
