Centre of Gravity could shift dates Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER
Centre of Gravity will be held on a new date, city council was told Monday. The popular volleyball, basketball and extreme sport extravaganza has brought world class DJs and musical acts to Kelowna for the August long weekend, attracting $5 million to the local economy in the process. However, complaints from neighbours and general concerns about drug use, squatting and the rowdiness its attractions also seem to draw have the City of Kelowna and organizers tossing about new dates in hopes of alleviating some of the pressure. “I think it’s something we can work with as a community…Everybody has to compromise to make these kinds of events successful,” said Coun. Andre Blanleil. The event is considered the top tournament in Western Canada for a number of the sports involved and attracted Olympians like Josh Binstock and Sam Schachter. However, by focusing on musical acts like Tiesto, Kaskade and Dada Life, it has developed a party atmosphere some believe is causing problems on city streets. A petition from one of the South Pandosy neighbourhood associations and complaints to City Hall prompted a review before council. When the report came forward Monday, it was suggested more focus on the sports and a new date just might clear up the difficulties. The festival is subject to review every year and city councillors were careful to note the organizer, Scott Emslie and Wet Ape Productions, has been extremely responsive to the municipality’s needs and those of the RCMP. Coun. Maxine DeHart came right out and said “we want you to stay,” before suggesting that the date change would be mutually beneficial to everyone. “Even in recession time, I can’t remember a long weekend in August where the hoteliers have trouble filling the hotel,” she noted. With this said, filling hotels might not be in the interest of COG party-goers, as noted in the presentation to council.

Former Westside-Kelowna MLA Ben Stewart is B.C.’s new investment and trade commissioner for Asia, Premier Christy Clark announced Monday. Stewart will be based in Beijing, but will travel to Japan and Korea to meet regularly with officials working for B.C.’s international trade ministry. Stewart said his experience promoting the wine industry in Asia will help him in the job. Clark emphasized Stewart’s experience as an MLA and cabinet minister, which she said gives him quick access to her and other cabinet ministers. “We need a representative in Asia who is known to have access to power and government here in British Columbia,” said Clark, who took the opportunity to become the MLA for Westside-Kelowna after Stewart stepped aside to force a byelection.

Marking 25 years of the aquatic centre Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
Six butterflies, representing the six members of the Johnson-Bentley family killed in 1982, can be found on a new memorial sign in the entranceway of Johnson Bentley Memorial Aquatic Centre. Tammy Arishenkoff, who was close friends with Karen and Janet Johnson, said the family would be happy to see how many smiling faces have passed through that entrance over the past 25 years. “Janet and Karen would be so happy to know that so many kids have come here and learned to swim, had birthday parties and (have) been
able to be kids in this facility,” said Arishenkoff. “This facility, I think, helped our community begin the healing process for losing such a great part of what this community was at the time.” Several people were on hand to celebrate JBMAC’s 25th birthday celebration Saturday afternoon. West Kelowna Mayor Doug Findlater said the road that led to the creation of the facility was “far from smooth.” “The path to the facility began with one of the greatest tragedies that our community has known,” said Findlater. “Out of a terrible tragedy, the community rebounded and made something lasting, beneficial
and full of life.” According to Rod Barrett, former president of the Johnson Bentley Pool Society, the initial plan was to build something lasting for children and families with the $22,000 that was left over in a community fund for the Johnson-Bentley family. “We thought about a tennis court, a park… we were looking at what we could do with that $22,000. But some place along the line, someone said we had to think big,” said Barrett. “We started to promote the idea of a pool, we started raising money for it. “It was not without controversy because this was a big project for our

Another family summer vacation landmark in Kelowna will soon be gone. Kelowna Grand Prix, first opened in 1983 on Stemel Road, will run its final day of racing on Sunday, as Darren Prowse, coowner and manager of the business, has sold the property. Prowse said the decision to sell was a combination of it becoming increasingly difficult for the business, which includes the formula race cars and track, laser tag and video games, to remain profitable and the planned widening of Highway 97 from four to six lanes between Highway 33 and Edwards Avenue. He said the highway expansion would mean both a loss of access of Highway 97 and frontage of his property, which would require the race track to be realigned.

Prowse said Kelowna Museums has already told him of their intention to stop by this week and retain some of his memorabilia. Anything he doesn’t sell will probably be put in storage. As well, Prowse said this weekend, Saturday and Sunday, from noon to 5 p.m. (weather permitting), will be the final two days of racing.

A woman who stabbed a bus driver with a syringe earlier this year in West Kelowna has been sentenced to two years in jail. Amanda Chrystal Best, 31, pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and knowingly possessing a prohibited weapon in July, approximately two weeks after she attacked a bus driver. Police say she boarded a bus near Banks Road in Kelowna the morning of June 29 and rode out to the bus shelter on Main Street, near Hoskins Road in West Kelowna. After passengers left the bus, she approached the driver and, without provocation, stabbed him. Best was arrested later that day in downtown Kelowna. After a sentencing hearing on Thursday, Best was handed a 730 day sentence for the aggravated assault, to be followed by three years of probation. She was also given a five-year firearms prohibition. The weapons offence netted a 30 day sentence, court records show.

RCMP on the hunt for Winfield armed robber He was dressed in a hooded sweater, black bandana and may have been brandishing a handgun, police said Monday in a statement issued about an armed robbery in Lake Country. The suspect made off with an undisclosed amount of cash, launching a widespread manhunt with officers from Lake Country and Kelowna engaged in the search almost as soon as he left the Shell gas station at 9531 Highway 97 in Lake Country Friday night. The incident occurred just before 10 p.m. The suspect allegedly entered the gas station store, pointed what appeared to be a handgun at the attendant and carried out the robbery. He is described as 5-foot-8 to 5-foot-9 in height, 210 pounds and carrying a black handgun. Anyone with information is asked to call the Lake Country RCMP 250-766-2288 or call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 to remain anonymous.

Staying healthy for flu season
With flu season just around the corner it’s time to start thinking about how to stay healthy. The pharmacist for Real Canadian Superstore in Kelowna offers simple ways to help keep your family healthy this flu season including: • Avoid touching your eyes, nose or mouth as germs can spread easily that way • Wash your hands often with soap and water • Carry and use hand sanitizer • Cough into your arm, not your hand. A great way to help protect yourself is by getting the flu shot every year. The vaccine can prevent influenza illness in about 70 to 90 per cent of healthy children and adults. The best time to get the shot is between now and December, before the number of influenza cases increase in Canada. This flu season, Kelowna residents will conveniently be able to get their flu shot at local Real Canadian Superstore and Extra Foods locations. Customers can speak to the pharmacist at their local store for details. For pharmacy contact information, see www.drugstorepharmacy.ca.

Premier visits downtown businesses Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
Premier Christy Clark strolled through downtown Kelowna on her way to RauDZ Regional Table Friday afternoon. Clark was joined by Minister of State for Tourism and Small Business Naomi Yamamoto, Kelowna city councillors and several others for the visit that was part of an organized small business walk-
about. Audrey Surrao, coowner of RauDz, greeted Clark at the door and had about 10 minutes to chat to the premier. Surrao described the opportunity to speak faceto-face with the premier as “amazing.” “To be recognized by Christy Clark and have her here, as well as (Minister Yamamoto), is pretty special,” said Surrao. Surrao spoke to Clark
about the issues her and co-owner chef Rod Butters are having with attaining a liquor licence for their soon-to-open bar: micro bar • bites. “It’s a very long process to get your licence. The communication process is non-existent…I mentioned that to her as well. “Parliamentary Secretary John Yap is reviewing the liquor policies in B.C., so I thanked her for that.”
The pair also chatted about local suppliers and local wines on the restaurant’s wine list. Prior to the walk, Clark presented the City of Kelowna with a $10,000 award for supporting small businesses. Coun. Luke Stack said the money will go toward making it possible to renew business licences online. wpaterson @kelownacapnews.com Twitter: @PatersonWade

barriers about organizing events off campus, because they are not free. “The fund is to help people get started with an outreach project and bridge the gap between the university and the community,” says Gall. The Tuum Est Student Initiative Fund can be used to cover a number of activities including student fees for attending specific Canadian conferences like the Model United Nations, or organizing the International Fashion show, UBC robotics club, concrete toboggan competition organized by students in the school of engineering, and last year’s Fools and Feathers workshop organized by students in the faculty of creative and critical studies. Michelle Lowton, associate director, student development and advising, points to an upcoming event organized by Creative and Critical Studies student Kelsie Balehowsky. A TESIF-funded initiative called Art and Controversy brings Ottawa artist Jonathan Hobin to campus Nov. 4 for a public dialogue, exhibit and panel discussion about controversial art and the issues explored by contemporary artists. It’s another example of the unique ideas students dream up and the value of funding being available to turn those dreams into reality, says Lowton.

NEWS Young group of professionals creates zombie atmosphere for Halloween party JCI Okanagan is taking a page out of the cult hit the Walking Dead by throwing a zombie inspired Halloween Bash on Friday, Nov. 1. Hoping to attract a crowd of ghoulish enthusiasts, JCI Okanagan will host the ode to zombie culture with a Day of the Dead themed party at the Michaelbrook Ranch Golf Course clubhouse. The venue will be transformed into a nightmare-scape with the support of Halloween Alley which will be providing the zombie-inspired scene for the night. You can break out your best zombie walk, or show off your horrific make-up techniques for prizes sponsored by Okanagan Spirits. There will also be com-
petition categories for those who can’t stomach skin peeling and are fans of more traditional Halloween wear. “We wanted to create a fun evening that showcases one of the things that JCI does best, and that is having a lot of fun,” said Cara Heck, JCI Okanagan president. Tickets for the event are available at http://jcidayofthedead.eventbrite.ca/ for those 19+ and are $20 which includes a night of dancing to tunes by Dusk til Dawn entertainment, and a late night appy buffet. You can save ticketing fees by purchasing directly at Halloween Alley, Okanagan Spirits or the Michaelbrook golf course.

The not-for-profit initiative, introduced in 2011 by the Canadian Electrical Stewardship Association, provides an environmentally friendly alternative for a variety of electrical products such as toasters, blenders, irons, sewing machines and electric toothbrushes that would otherwise end up in landfills. There are more than
145 drop-off locations throughout B.C., providing an accessible and convenient recycling option for British Columbians. The five award recipients all boast the highest collection rates of electrical products in the province. Per household in 2012, Kootenay Boundary residents collected 2.35 kgs.; Nanaimo residents
collected 2.11 kgs., Central Okanagan residents collected 1.93 kgs.; North Okanagan residents collected 1.77 kgs., and Capital District residents collected 1.67 kgs. Per household in 2012, Central Okanagan District residents collected 2.11 kgs. of electrical products. “The citizens in these districts have demonstrat-

We are so happy to encourage them to further take initiative in promoting our collection facility network.”
▼ SPORTS/MUSIC FESTIVAL
Change of date considered for COG Date from A1 Another reason the city would like to see the festival moved is to avoid the long weekend factor. Some 5,000 people come to the city for the event with tickets, roughly fifty per cent of the tickets sold go to locals. But numbers bandied about in the media peg the festival’s draw at 30,000. It’s hoped that by eliminating the long weekend option, some of the tag-
alongs who come for the festival atmosphere without a ticket will stay away as it eliminates the additional day for travel. Among the other issues the festival is trying to address is the amount of drugs and alcohol consumed during the weekend. There were 84 calls made for an ambulance, 54 were for drug or alcohol related issues. Centre Of Gravity pays for two ambulances to be on site. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

“That is a critical part of doing successful business in Asia.” Stewart, owner of Quails’ Gate winery in West Kelowna, will be paid $150,000 to serve in the Asia trade role, which is about the same salary he received as a cabinet minister before he was demoted to the backbench when Clark was selected as B.C. Liberal leader. Stewart said he worked on trade issues in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Japan as well as Europe and Latin America, trying to open markets for the B.C. wine industry. That experience taught him “how difficult it is to establish relationships from afar,” he said. The announcement comes as Clark prepares for her own trade mission to Asia in late November, following similar tours by Forests Minister Steve Thomson and Natural Gas Development Minister Rich Coleman. After the May election, Clark established a new ministry of international trade, headed by Richmond Centre MLA Teresa Wat, who will accompany Clark on the trade mission Nov. 21 to Dec. 3.

UBCO students want to send a message about wasted fruit EDITOR
Two UBC Okanagan students feel that too much fruit is being wasted in orchards that are not being actively farmed. So they decided to do something about it. Brian Nekrash, 24, and Kory Bell, 23, were joined by a fewHARDY friends on PORT Saturday as they collected a truckload of apples from an orchard on Valley Road in Glenmore. “We just felt it was one way to bring public attention to the fact that a lot of fruit is going to waste on fruit trees that people could put to use,” Nekrash said. He said the Kelowna Community Food Bank and Kelowna General Hospital had indicated they would each take some of what the group picked on the weekend. “We just want to bring to public attention that thousands of apples are available to be picked and used for something, rather than going to waste.” Nekrash said the orchard they chose is land

He said while the apple picking initiative was hastily planned by him and Bell last week, he hopes their one action can help inspire change. “We are just trying to do what we can,” said Nekrash, who is from Surrey and enrolled at UBCO to get his teaching degree, while Bell, a native of Fort St. John in northern B.C.,
is studying for his undergraduate degree with a major in history.

Health care workers and visitors in patient care areas will be required to have the current influenza vaccination or wear a mask when the annual influenza season returns in December. Health care union objections to the policy were rejected by a labour arbitrator’s ruling this week, a decision Provincial Health Officer Dr. Perry Kendall called “good news for patients.” The policy can now be enforced for staff across all of B.C.’s health authorities, particularly in longterm care facilities, Kendall said last week. Visitors will be on an “honour system” to keep their flu shots up to date or use a mask when they visit friends and relatives, he said.

▼ OUR VIEW
Senate’s credibility beaten up
T
he political comedy playing itself out in Ottawa these days involving three senators playing fast and loose allegedly with their expenses is no doubt giving Prime Minister Stephen Harper a massive headache. How he let this matter get so out of hand is a mystery, for Harper generally keeps a very tight rein on the comings and goings of his government. The controversy surrounding the expenses for Conservative appointee senators Mike
Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau can be attributed to the ultimate downfall of most politicians—a sense of entitlement. In particular, as former journalists, many are shocked by what has transpired regarding the allegations against Duffy and Wallin. But we shouldn’t be surprised. We live in a time where our collective sense of entitlement is beyond what our economy or government can afford, or the corporate fat cats are will-
ing to share in. Duffy and Wallin made a name for themselves in covering Ottawa for many years, becoming the ultimate insiders where their names translated into revenue opportunities for their broadcast employers. Playing fast and loose with expense accounts, if the allegations against them are true about misrepresenting their expenses, is not big deal for those who indulge themselves in self importance. Perhaps the irony here above
all else is that two journalists, a vocation that Harper doesn’t have much use for, would turn out to cause him such grief. In the end, Harper will likely not have to resign over this as some have suggested, but his reputation will be tarnished. The auditor general’s investigation will help determine more clearly what Duffy, Wallin and Brazeau did or did not do within the senate’s expense filing rules. And we will be left again to wonder what purpose the senate serves in our lives?

Province wants to hear suggestions on changing liquor laws
T
his week, on behalf of local MLAs Christy Clark and Steve Thomson, I hosted my colleague John Yap, the Parliamentary Secretary for B.C.’s Liquor Policy Review, for a town hall event to hear your views on how we should modernize liquor policy in the province. Over 100 people from our community and beyond engaged in a healthy discussion on the benefits and challenges to changing our current liquor laws and regulations. Some great ideas and concerns were shared with MLA Yap and after speaking with him and constituents afterward, everyone was very apprecia-
tive of the constructive and respectful manner in which the discussion took place. There are three phases to the Liquor Policy Review, which began in August 2013 with the engagement of industry groups and stakeholders. The government has requested ideas for making balanced, common-sense changes to B.C.’s liquor laws from industry, local governments, First Nations, police, and health and social policy associations. The second phase has included
engaging British Columbians through online discussions, email, letters, and our town hall last Tuesday. Once all of the input has been colNorm lected, a report will Letnick be prepared by Parliamentary Secretary Yap that will be submitted to Attorney General and Minister of Justice Suzanne Anton before the end of November. How can you get involved? Everyone is encouraged to visit the website at engage.gov.bc.ca/liquorpolicyreview, where you can submit

your ideas and read blog posts about the consultation process until Oct. 31. The website has lots of information about how our system works today, and perspectives collected from industry and stakeholders. There is a lengthy, public list of all the stakeholders that have contributed to the discussion so far through meetings, and a counter for input. To date, there have been nearly 4,000 tweets with the #bcliquor hashtag used, and over 1,200 emails. At Tuesday’s town hall, our community contributed to the debate in person, but you still have time to have your say. Send a letter, or write an email with your input on the wide-
range of issues being reviewed. What do you think about the idea of allowing grocery and convenience stores to sell beer, wine, and spirits? In Kelowna, we know how important the wine tourism industry is to our economy. How can we increase tourism and stimulate the economy through modernizing liquor laws? One suggestion raised has been the possibility of off-site tasting rooms for craft breweries, wineries, and distilleries. How would this impact wine tourism and the local Kelowna economy?

▼ ENVIRONMENT AT RISK
Industrial growth trumps air and water To the editor: In April 2012, the federal government reduced the number of departments and agencies that can do environmental reviews from 40 to just three to speed up approvals for new industrial development projects. The government justified this erosion of federal project oversight to protect the environment by saying it would bolster the economy. To date, the federal government has not made public its cost benefit analysis supporting this claim to boost the economy. To the contrary, the 2010 Enbridge pipeline spill into Michigan’s Kalamazoo River is only 60 per cent recovered and has cost over $1 billion to clean up.
Such high clean up costs and weaker environmental laws in Canada than in the U.S. make it attractive for companies operating in Canada to walk away from their responsibilities. For example, in August 2013 the MM&A railway, involved in the Lac Megantic oil spill disaster, initiated bankruptcy protection in both the U.S. and Quebec courts because it faces a growing number of lawsuits, legal notices and cleanup costs estimated to exceed $200 million. On Friday, Oct. 25, 2013, the federal Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency announced a number of project types that will no longer require a federal environmental assessment, including:
No need to licence scooters to drive on sidewalks To the editor: Thank goodness the delegates at the Union of BC Municipalities convention voted to drop a request for the licensing of sidewalk scooters. What a waste of time and oxygen even thinking about it, not to mention having to debate and vote on it! First, the people who run our municipalities have a lot more important issues to deal with than renegade scooters. At least, I would hope so. Second, how much is it going to cost to enforce these new regulations and who is going to do it? Don’t our police officers and bylaw officers have better things to do? Our local cops already
routinely ignore provincial laws regarding bicycle helmets. Would this just be one more law that gets disregarded? If so, what’s the point? Third, one fatality and two rollovers in Sidney on Vancouver Island hardly constitute a trend that needs to be addressed. I am getting very tired of the typical response in this country that every time something “bad” happens, we need another law or another regulation. Let’s concentrate on personal responsibility and accountability rather than expecting the government to save us from ourselves. Lloyd Vinish, Kelowna

To the editor: Recent media reports about how our campaign is progressing, one-third of the way in, has caused me to think about some of the common misconceptions some people have about signing an official petition requesting a referendum on marijuana decriminalization. Perhaps, by noting some of these misconceptions, I can clarify what it is that my organization,Sensible BC, is actually, proposing. “Signing this petition tells the government that I use marijuana.” The reality is, Elections BC, by law, needs to ensure that registered B.C. voters, within their respective ridings, are counted accurately. It’s just the process. It doesn’t reflect personal habits. It can’t. “Marijuana decriminalization will mean kids will be able to get pot anywhere.” Kids can get pot anywhere now! That’s because of prohibition. The underground, illegal marijuana industry has no regulation. There’s no inspectors or quality control. Certainly, there’s nobody who’s going to ask a minor to show identification. Currently, it’s easier for our kids to buy marijuana than it is for them to get alcohol. That needs to be changed and our petition will help.
Convenience vs safety In this week’s blog post, Parliamentary Secretary John Yap talks about his ride-along with the Vancouver Police Department in Granville entertainment district, and highlights some of the challenges with balancing convenience and public safety. He also poses
some important questions, and encourages British Columbians to share their experience and perspective. How can we find balance while maintaining the priority of public safety in our community? Do you see a problem with disorderly conduct – and if so, what can we do to deal with it? Join the conversa-
ber stamp them for shortterm economic gains. However, air and water pollutants from these projects will flow into Saskatchewan and the Northwest Territories over the long-term, imposing huge costs on these jurisdictions to deal with public health and clean-up issues. This federal government change is not serving the long-term public interests of Canadians by dismantling environmental oversight to boost the economy. Rather, these changes will increase the likelihood of environmental impacts and public costs arising from these projects. Richard Drinnan, Kelowna

respirable mineral fibres). Eliminating federal oversight enables provinces to assess these projects, which is not in the national public interest. Stronger, not weaker, federal oversight is needed to ensure every province follows the same rules. All of these projects pollute the environment and impact terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. Allowing provinces to arbitrarily regulate these industries provides no consistent protection for airsheds, watersheds and fish and wildlife habitats that cross provincial boundaries. Under the new rules, Alberta will now be solely responsible for regulating and approving oilsands and pipeline projects in the province and will rub-
tion. Go online, or write a letter, and share your thoughts with our government and Parliamentary Secretary John Yap. This is an important discussion, and we want to hear from you. Norm Letnick is the Liberal MLA for Kelowna-Lake Country.
“It’s, pretty much, legal already.” Over 3,580 British Columbians were charged with simple possession of marijuana last year. This is close to double the rate of charges of any other province. The rate of pot possession charges in B.C. has been steadily increasing for years. In 2010, B.C. police charged twice as many people with marijuana possession than they did in 2005. “I can’t sign while I’m working or while I’m wearing my employer’s uniform.” This is an Elections BC authorized petition. Just as with an election, you have the legal right to sign this petition. If a person is on lunch, or a break, an employer has no right to prevent them from exercising this right. After more than three generations of vilifying cannabis, I can appreciate some of the stigma associated with an open, rational discussion on how our province might more effectively deal with this issue. At Sensible BC, we believe that this discussion really needs to happen, in order to alleviate that stigma. Signing the petition moves us in that direction. Mark Conlin, West Kelowna organizer, Sensible BC

all current Okanagan College students, contestants are given 180 minutes to create an original literary piece that incorporates a word, phrase, or object revealed at the start of the contest. Last year’s winner, Samantha Wex, said “Having the surprise element meant I couldn’t plan. I went in cold, and got to really see what I can do. It was fun.” Five prizes are up for grabs. Each campus declares a regional winner who receives a $250 Okanagan College tuition credit. A grand prize winner is then selected from among the four regional winners and awarded an additional $250 tuition
credit plus a chapbook publication of their story created by Okanagan College Writing and Publishing diploma program students and Kalamalka Press. “The contest gets students excited about writing,” said contest organizer and Okanagan College professor Sean Johnston. “It’s an act of courage for many of the younger students to take part, but they walk away from the experience happy and surprised at what they were able to produce in such a short period of time.” Registration is free.

Used eyeglass donations for Philippines Catherine Goheen has retired from the business she founded, Dr. Specs Optical. But her desire to help enhance the gift of vision for poor people in Third World countries has not waned. This year, her goal is to fill four suitcases with used specs for people in the Philippines. Goheen outlines below how people can help support her and why she is driven to continue this campaign year after year. Why eyeglasses? “If we give people food, we help them for one day; when we provide a pair of eyeglasses or teach someone to read, we can help them feed their families for life.” When do you go to deliver the eyeglasses? “The suit cases need to be packed by Nov. 13.” What can people donate? “Anyone who has extra reading glasses, prescription and non-prescription sunglasses, bifocals, progressive, or distant glasses are invited to bring them in. A reminder that eyeglass wearers who do not have two pairs of glasses with their current prescription, it is recommended to keep the last pair they wore as a back-up pair for themselves, just in case they lose or damage their current pair of eyeglasses.” Where do people donate their old glasses? “The new owner of the Kelowna Dr. Specs Optical, Dean Thomas has agreed to help us collect the glasses. So folks are invited to drop them off at Dr. Specs Optical in Orchard Plaza, near Save-On-Foods. Call 250-861-1585.” Who will receive these glasses? “The Rotarian Clubs in the Philippines will focus on the poorest areas of Manila.” How will the poor get the correct pair? “The Rotarian’s volunteer optometrist and opticians will exam and dispense the glasses that are closest to the patients needs. Obviously, the glasses will not be the exact prescription, but the glasses will be close enough that they will see much bet-

Many poor only earn $10 per month, and these glasses can sell for $10 on the black market. Think about it—an old pair of glasses can be worth a month’s pay, on the black market. So it is important that the glasses travel as personal luggage, in suit cases, since they are much safer than if they were in the cargo section. By some people’s standards, there are hundreds of month’s pay in each suit case. So I will pack

BUSINESS
The role of teamwork key to entrepreneurial success A ssembling my thoughts to write an entrepreneurial personal story again this week, my mind began to drift to news items I’ve read and heard over the past several days. I found my thoughts bringing me back to another favourite topic of mine, that of the meaning of entrepreneurial teams and their impact on our world. Let me open your mind to new thoughts perhaps of how genuine team formation beyond sports and recreation can impact your life, our business community and the economy of our region and province. I bring back to you the old Chinese proverb it is difficult to clap with one hand, which appropriately opens our reflection on entrepreneurial teams. For the past 15 years, team entrepreneurship has received increased attention as a body of research suggesting that fast growth firms are more likely to have been founded by entrepreneurial teams. Much of my own research over the years has supported the idea that a new entrepreneurial venture creation process is quite often precipitated by a team of entrepreneurially-minded people rather than the individual zealot. An entrepreneurial team may be defined as two or more individuals who jointly envisage a business opportunity and thus consensually create a new venture in which they have a personal and financial interest. After dabbling in this team thought model, I wanted to remind all of us of the importance and direct relevance of entrepreneurial leadership in this same context and how important this ingredient is to creating the greater entrepreneurial mindset. For an entrepreneurial leader, building a great team is crucial to successful launch and growth of a new venture. Early stage teams without such substantive leadership never seem to have the complete recipe of skills need to take a perceived business opportunity along its desired path. So let’s get daring and get into some key questions and comments regarding the creation of an entrepreneurial team. Let’s identify what skills do we need? How do we find, attract and engage the best talent for our
ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT
Joel Young new venture? And how do we motivate, lead and retain the created team toward our version of successful victory? Let me explain that entrepreneurial leaders are distinguished from other managers by their personal practices. Such practices I suggest to you fall into three categories—setting the entrepreneurial work climate; orchestrating the venture opportunity; and moving the new venture or ventures personally in a forward motion. Getting strategic in deciding what skills we need to make our dream venture become a reality is a great beginning to team creation. For example, what will make your new venture standout from the perceived competition? What capabilities will be crucial to your success? What skills must you have on your team to achieve your goals, to cre-
ate value and, of course, to protect that newly created value? More simple put, you need to design through a great strategy a targeted culture for the new venture, one that will make your prospective team members easily able to commit and dedicate themselves in seeing your dream become realizable. And that also speaks to becoming tactical, meaning to get your wonder team together and build a specification or a list of responsibilities for each key position in your new venture structure. Assess how well the collective talent you have assembled matches up with what you will need to succeed in the early stages of your venture launch. Then I would suggest that you strive to get the best. Depending on the stage of your venture and how much money you can and wish to spend, your approach to finding the right team candidates may vary. You will need to be proactive and aggressive while you are evaluating a potential team membership for this is your “dream machine” that you are creating. Appeal to your team
candidates desire to win and appeal to not only their technical skills and experience, but their values and cultural beliefs as well. Two more ingredients make up my recommended team recipe for this week. Get the most means taking a personal role in motivating and retaining this wonderous team you have created—that’s your job as the entrepreneurial leader in your new exciting venture creation. The way that you lead your team will be the most important factor. Share your vision and be open about the challenge. Share your entrepreneurial passion and demonstrate your determination. Much has been written the world over about passion reigning supreme over the venture process and success curve. Teach and mentor, share your talents and perhaps, most important of all demonstrate humility. You will want to hear clearly and unmistakably what your new team may be telling you. Finally, and this is a hard one for many of us serial entrepreneurs—get tough. Try your best to ob-

n my last column, I discussed seeking a life balance between working and caregiving. Balance is a word bandied about considerably in today’s world. We know we want it, but trying to really experience this illusive “state of equilibrium” with multiple external demands being placed on us is challenging. Frequently the circumstances I seem to find myself in that stretch me beyond my coping comfort zone are an opportunity to see where internally I may be out of sync. As my “work” hours have dramatically increased with the provision of care for my mom in my own home, it becomes a sink or swim challenge to change my perceptions of what I think is important. Learning to make adjustments in my life that support “self care” is a recognition that is probably long overdue. So, the first resource in caregiving and maintaining a work-life balance is making the choice to “put the oxygen mask on yourself first.” It is a principle that works in financial planning as well and is often not practiced as a myriad of demands are placed on
SENIORS’ CONCERNS
Marjorie Horne your finances. Resources multiply by the understanding and practice of this principle. In caregiving, it is your daily energy reserves, your sense of satisfaction in this role, your ability to practice patience that expands and suddenly you find yourself “not sweating the small stuff” anymore. The demands don’t necessary decrease, but your reaction to them changes and this elusive balance or “state of equilibrium” is felt. Some other simple recommendations for “self care” are: • Pay attention to your own feelings both physically and emotionally. Stop, breathe, reflect and listen to others and to your own body. (I am taking the time to swim four early mornings a week now—it’s incredible!) • Recognize and accept your own limits. Take one step at a time, one day at a time.

• Never assume that others know what you are feeling. Communicate and ask for help. Most people want to give it, but need your expressed invitation to take some action to be of assistance to you. • Adjust to this “new normal” in your life. Accepting that extending yourself in a caring role is part of your life journey for now and that there is a reason, encourages gratitude. Jot the insights and aha moments in a journal and embrace what the moments represent. Also, accept the days where anger, resentment, frustration and discouragement rule your thoughts. It helps to let them flow through and begin the next day afresh. As a caregiving role becomes the norm for a large percentage of baby boomers, collaboration and communication will be needed to find new strategies and support methods to deal with the demands. Offering experiences learned and bringing positive participation to assist organizations, including the government, as we progress to this “new normal” of working and caregiving is needed. I learned of one
opportunity this week called the Patients as Partners/Patient Voices Network (PVN). This network is made up of patients, caregivers, family members and others who want to use their patient or caregiving experience for positive change to the health care system. More than 170 patient partners across the Interior are already involved in opportunities such as focus groups, advisory committees and learning sessions. There are many levels on which to participate that are valuable. For more information visit the website at www.patientvoices.ca or contact Carol Stathers at 250-492-1142. An upcoming volunteer orientation will be held in Kelowna on Thursday, Nov. 28, from 4 to 8 p.m. I’m going to attend to add my voice and become part of the solution. I hope to see you there!

Heat women bronzed in PACWEST The UBC Okanagan Heat women’s soccer team said farewell to the PACWEST conference with its fourth medal in as many years at the B.C. collegiate championship. The Heat, who will enter the Canada West university conference next season, defeated the Langara Falcons 3-2 Sunday in Nanaimo to claim the bronze medal. Although the UBCO women, after back-toback B.C. silver medals, fell short of their goal of a provincial title, the Heat was happy to finish the season with an exhilarating victory. Just a day earlier, the Heat’s gold medal aspirations were dashed in a 3-1 loss to Quest in the semifinal. “We are so proud of the team,” said assistant coach Ashlee Davison, who handled most of the coaching duties this weekend for an ill head coach, Claire Paterson. “They showed great character after a tough loss and battled hard in the game against Langara.” In the bronze medal game, the Heat fell behind early against Langara as the Falcons scored just two minutes in, but responded quickly as Kirsten Dodds tallied in the 14th minute to tie the game. In the second half, UBCO put the game away on goals by Lindsey Briggs and three-time allstar Hayley Carlson. Dodds, a product of Vernon, was named the top forward at the championship. According to Davison, Dodds was “exceptional in both games and had the weekend of her season.” With their head coach

UBCO’S Kirsten Dodds (right) was named the tournament’s top forward as the Heat won the bronze medal at the PACWEST women’s championship in Nanaimo. not at 100 per cent, Davison was pleased with how the team captains stepped up their play as midfielder Marissa Klees “set the tone for the weekend with her incredible work ethic and never-say-die attitude.” Hayley Carlson, the other captain, “was a force to be reckoned with for other team’s offensive players, and she was our rock at the back,” Davison noted.
It was an emotional game for the Heat, as six members of the team knew before stepping on the turf that today’s game would be their last match in a Heat uniform, yet they were still able to provide the spark to propel the Heat to victory. “Our seniors, somewhat emotional,” explained Davison, “stepped up as leaders and showed great poise and determination.”
This was the last UBC Okanagan Heat soccer game in both the PACWEST and the Canadian Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA). Both the men’s and the women’s soccer teams from UBC’s Okanagan campus will play the 2014 season in the Canada West conference of the CIS (Canadian Interuniversity Sport). whenderson @kelownacapnews.com
If he wasn’t already considered one of the WHL’s best, then another stellar weekend between the posts should pretty much solidify Jordon Cooke’s place among the league’s elite netminders. The 20-year-old Leduc, Alta. native paced his Kelowna Rockets to a pair of victories over the hometown Victoria Royals, stopping 61 shots and allowing just two goals in the process. The performance was enough for the WHL to nominate Cooke on Monday for the Canadian Hockey League’s goaltender of the week award. A 28-save effort by Cooke on Friday—including two stops on penalty shots—resulted in a 4-1 Rockets’ win over the Royals. Cooke was in the groove again on Saturday, turning aside 33 shots in regulation and overtime, then three more in the shootout to secure a 2-1 Rockets’ victory. Now in his fourth campaign with the Rockets, Cooke leads the league this season in both goals against average (1.85) and save efficiency (.939), while sporting a healthy 8-0-0-2 record. “(Jordon) has been excellent for us,” said Rockets head coach Ryan Huska. “He’s given us a chance to win every night. You could tell from the start that he was determined to have a very

We’ve believed in Jordon for a number of years, and now he’s paying us back, I guess you could say.” While Cooke has been steady and consistent in the Rockets’ net, Huska said the club’s defence, for the most part, has also had a hand in the 20-yearold stopper’s early season success. “A lot of times when shots come from the outside it means your defence is playing well and there are easier saves to make for your goaltender,” Huska added. “There have been a few games like that, and there have also been nights where Jordon has had to make some tough saves to keep us in games. It’s been a
little of both this season.” With the two victories in Victoria, the Rockets (9-2-0-2) boosted themselves two points ahead of the Royals (9-8-0-0) for top spot in the B.C. Division. The Rockets return to the road this Friday and Saturday for a doubleheader in Prince George against the Cougars. Kelowna’s next home action is Wednesday, Nov. 6 against the Red Deer Rebels.

Heat women 2-0 start
After a convincing win to open the women’s volleyball season Friday night in Kamloops over Thompson Rivers University, the UBC Okanagan Heat were equally impressive Saturday night on their home. The No. 4-ranked Heat swept the Wolfpack 3-0 (25-21, 25-16, 2513) at UBCO to open the Canada West campaign with back-to-back wins. “We’re happy with where we are at this time of the season,” said Heat head coach Steve Manuel. “Any time you can beat a Canada West team back to back, it’s a positive thing.” Player of the Game Brianna Beamish led the Heat attack with 11 kills, while Kaitlynn Given put in another strong offensive showing, connecting on nine kills in addition to serving the ‘Pack extremely tough to the tune of four service aces. R Given had 19 kills in a
Heat sweep on Friday. Rookies Erin Drew and Michelle Jakszuk, in extended action, played extremely well in the first home game of their careers, with both players picking up a service ace in the second set. “We’ve got a pretty deep roster,” added Manuel. “We’re pretty young in a lot of places but … we’re excited about how it’s going to look in the very near future, (and things)look pretty good right now.” The Heat will play host to the Mount Royal Cougars this weekend, Nov. 2 and 3, in a rematch of last year’s Canada West quarter-final with first serve set for 1 p.m. both days.
HEAT MEN
The UBC Okanagan men have opened the Canada West season at 0-2 after losing both ends of a weekend doublehead-
er to Thompson Rivers University. On Friday in Kelowna, the Wolfpack swept to a 3-0 win 3-0 (25-23, 2520, 25-22). Nate Speijer led all Heat hitters with 15 kills, while Bornemann, Joshua Harvey, and Kyle Pankratz all tallied five kills of their own in the season-opening spoiler. On Saturday, another trademark Speijer performance was spoiled, as Brad Gunter and Philip Ozari countered Speijer’s 27 kills with 33 combined kills to push the ‘Pack past the Heat in a 3-1 (25-16, 27-25, 23-25, 25-22) victory at Tournament Capital Centre. The Heat will return home for the next weekend of play, hosting the Mount Royal Cougars for a weekend series beginning Saturday, Nov. 2 and concluding Sunday, Nov. 3 Both games are scheduled for 3 p.m.

Productive Coastal trip for Warriors despite depleted roster A roster depleted by injuries, sickness and absences, the West Kelowna Warriors still found a way to play like one of the teams to beat in the BCHL. With nine players out of the lineup—five on the sidelines and four at the World Junior A Challenge camp—the Warriors downed the Surrey Eagles 5-3 Sunday to earn five of a possible six points on their weekend road trip. Jordon Masters and Tyson Dallman scored twice each for the Warriors while Matt Anholt added a goal and two assists, as West Kelowna rallied from a 3-2 deficit with three unanswered goals in the third period.
After replacing injured starter Andy Desautels late in the first period on Saturday in Langley, goalie Cody Porter earned his first BCHL win in his first start of the season on Sunday. The Warriors won 4-3 Friday in Coquitlam, then lost 3-2 in overtime Saturday night in Langley. The Warriors (12-4-0-2) now lead the Interior Division by two points over the Penticton Vees. “It’s a good weekend for the guys.” said Tyson Dallman. “We left it all on the table.” West Kelowna is back on home ice this Saturday as the Trail Smoke Eaters pay a visit to
Royal LePage Place.
Kelowna Chiefs…
The Kelowna Chiefs rebounded from a home-ice loss Saturday night to down the Posse 6-4 Sunday afternoon in KIJHL action in Princeton. Nick Josephs. who scored into an empty net, led the Kelowna attack with a goal and two assists. Cole De Jonge and Jagger Bowles each added a goal and an assist as the Chiefs (11-4-01) won for the sixth time in seven games. Kelowna saw its five-game win streak end

Saturday at the hands of the league-leading Nelson Leafs at Rutland Arena. Nelson blew the game open with a four-goal third period to record a 5-1 win. The Chiefs return to action Wednesday when they visit the Osoyoos Coyotes. In other news, the Chiefs traded defenceman Kyle Clayton to Nelson, in exchange for 19-year-old forward Matt Naka. In other moves, Brett Yungen has decided to leave the Chiefs this year due to personal reasons while Marshall Sidwell is no longer with the team as he awaits surgery on his hand.
CNC unnerves Ok Rockets’ opponents For opposing teams of the Okanagan Rockets, playing at the Capital News Centre has so far proven to be an exercise in futility. With a pair of victories over the visiting North Island Silvertips on the weekend, the Rockets have pushed their homeice record to a perfect 7-00 this season. In the process, the Rockets remained at the top of the heap in the B.C. Major Midget League at 9-1-0 overall. “To be honest, if you were writing a script, to be one point ahead of the (defending champion) Giants at this point, you couldn’t ask for much more,” said Rockets head coach Mark O’Rourke. “It’s good to be on top, but at the same time we have our work cut out for us and a lot of tough games to play. It only gets more difficult as we move along, so we’ll have to be at the top of our game.” After a decisive 6-2 win Saturday by the Rockets, Sunday’s game at CNC was far from a sure thing. The Rockets home-ice winning streak was threatened when the Silvertips tied up the game 2-2 early in the third period. But Linden Hora’s second goal of the game with just 55 seconds left to

CUISINE from Jude’s kitchen frightfully good You just can’t ignore Halloween nowadays. Everywhere you turn there are Halloween decorations, colourful costumes and pumpkins waiting to be carved into Jack-o-Lanterns. What the heck, it’s fun to dress up as someone (or something) else and act up, no matter how young or old you are. And, you can’t beat the opportunity to consume a variety of foods that might ordinarily be considered ‘junque food’ and banned from the house. I do remember my Mom was very particular about trying to get us to eat something healthy and filling before we started in on the orgy of Halloween treats, so I’m making a suggestion here that falls somewhere in between too stodgy and healthful, and over the top sweet, salty and greasy, with no redeeming features whatever. If you’re having youngsters over or are asked to contribute to a neighbourhood party, perhaps the traditional popcorn balls would be fun to make. The kids can help. These could be decorated with candies for faces by those attending the party, as an activity that they’ll enjoy before eating their creations. It really seems that kids who are allowed to help in the kitchen are more likely to be interested in eating what they’ve help make, even if it seems to be a healthy choice which they might otherwise turn their noses up at. Individual portions of meatloaf with creative vegetable faces might just do the trick, and there are vegetables hidden in the meat mixture, but you don’t have to tell them that. There are other Halloween suggestions, along with lots of seasonal fall favourite recipes in my book, Jude’s Kitchen, which is available in bookstores.
Crispy Salted Caramel Popcorn Balls Make this with peanuts, almonds or pecans, depending on your audience, or leave the nuts out, particularly if making balls with the mix. No one ever said Halloween candy should be nutritious, but popcorn has the advantage of being high in fibre and a source of some other nutrients as well. 12 cups (3 l) popped popcorn 2 c. (500 ml) nuts of your choice 3/4 c. (175 ml) brown sugar 1/4 c. (60 ml) molasses 1/2 c. (125 ml) butter 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) salt 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) baking soda butter to grease hands coarsely-ground sea salt to garnish Pre-heat oven to 200 F. Line a couple of large baking pans with
parchment paper and divide the popcorn and nuts between them. Over medium heat, cook the sugar, molasses, butter and salt in a small pot until the butter is melted and bubbles form around the edge. Remove from the heat and stir in the baking soda, mixing well. Pour half the mixture over the popcorn and nut mix in each pan, stirring as you pour so all the pieces are coated. Put the pans into a low oven and cook for about an hour, stirring about three times. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with coarse salt. Either cool and break up the mix, or butter your hands and, as soon as it’s cool enough to touch without burning yourself, form it into balls. You may push a stick into each or just wrap in plastic film once they’re cool.
Pumpkin-face Meatloaf
JUDIE STEEVES / CAPITAL NEWS
This is a fun way to mark Halloween and encourage your little goblins to eat a hearty and nutritious meal prior to the evening’s activities. Let them decorate the top, or make several serving-sized meatloaves with this recipe and let each decorate their own. You could put them into muffin or custard cups to bake, but they would need only a half hour or so in the oven. 1 large onion 1 stalk celery drizzle of oil 1 clove garlic 1 large carrot drizzle of oil 1 egg 1 lb. (454 g) lean ground beef 1/4 c. (60 ml) chili sauce 2 tbsp. (30 ml) ketchup 1 tbsp. (15 ml) Worcestershire Sauce 1/4 c. (60 ml) oat bran 10 drops hot sauce 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) pepper 1/2 tsp. (2 ml) salt
TOPPING:
1/2 large yam 1 tbsp. (15 ml) butter
Pre-heat oven to 350 F. Chop onion and celery and saute it in a pan with a drizzle of oil, over medium heat, until softened. Mince garlic and grate carrot and add, cooking and stirring for a few minutes. Beat egg in a medium-sized bowl and combine all remaining ingredients, including the onion mixture. At this point add spinach and chopped mushrooms or diced sweet peppers, if you like. Pack into a nice round casserole dish. Meanwhile, peel and cube the yam and steam until tender. Cool and mash with the butter. Roast the meatloaf, uncovered, for 45 minutes, then remove from the oven to add the yam topping. Smooth it evenly on top of the meat, and cook for a further 15 minutes to re-heat the yams and brown slightly. Remove from the oven and decorate with black olives. Serves 4.

Some simple guidelines for readers of Jude's Kitchen
There are some basics about my cooking that you should know about in using the recipes created for Jude’s Kitchen. *I mean a large egg when a recipe calls for an egg *usually, butter and margarine are interchangeable *usually, salt and pepper is added to your taste *I generally use sea salt
*fresh ingredients top frozen or canned *organic products are my first choice *wherever possible, I use whole grains, not processed *include a variety of them, when possible *wherever possible, I use fresh herbs *fewer quantities of dried herbs are needed than fresh
*I use extra virgin olive oil *I use grapeseed or olive oil to cook with *I don’t deep fry *feel free to substitute. I do *have fun in the kitchen *encourage others to as well
