ICE E
ver since ice has been made in hockey rinks, the ageold truism was to pour hot water on cool ice to make the best ice surface possible. The hot water melts part of the ice, fills the cracks made by skates and creates the smooth surface for skaters to do it all over again. But have you ever thought how much it costs to heat enough water to fill eight to 10 Zambonis every day of the

It’s substantial, but a new pilot project at Memorial Arena is trying out a new, green system aimed at changing the way things are done, cutting down the costs of hot water and lowering energy usage.

—Florian Gabriel, managing director of Swich Services, Western Canada distributor of the REALIce technology.

Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER
A
s the Zamboni prepares to head out onto the ice sheet at Kelowna’s Memorial Arena to clean the scrapes and snow after the completion of yet another hockey game, there is more activity than ever behind the doors where the ice machine will eventually emerge. Staff are busy checking the water temperature being loaded into the Zamboni, reading gauges in the arena’s mechanical plant and fine-tuning a new ice making system that is widely used in Sweden and Finland. Called REALIce, Memorial Arena has installed the new system under a unique FortisBC pilot project aimed at saving thousands of dollars a month.
Quality ice sought at less cost Valued at $30,000 (a tab that will be paid by Fortis if Memorial Arena decides to adopt the system) the REALIce system seems to turn everything ice-makers have traditionally done on its ear. It’s a complicated technology that uses a vortex system to change the property of the water before it’s put into the Zamboni. In layman’s terms, and in a perfect world, it allows a Zamboni to put cold water on cold ice and create the same quality of ice as was created under the old system where water as hot as 65 C was used to flood the ice. In the process, it saves money on heating the water, running ice-mak-
ing compressors that cool the floor under the ice and limiting the amount of energy usage. “The old thought on ice-making was if you used cold water, it freezes too fast on the ice and causes the ice to fracture easily,” said Justin Pont, a Memorial Arena building operator. “If we can offer the same quality of ice for less energy consumption, that’s what we want to do. Time will tell.” The new system has been installed and will be tested over the month of February to monitor the quality of the ice. The technology was developed in Sweden and is being used in 250 arenas around the world.
One of those rinks is located in Malmo, Sweden, the site of this past year’s World Junior Hockey Championship, as well as the arena in Finland that hosted the 2013 World Hockey Championships. However, only one other rink in Canada as well as a handful of surfaces in the United States currently use the system in North America—that is until this month. As part of the FortisBC pilot project, 10 arenas around the province have had the REALIce technology installed and are going through the same steps as Memorial Arena, fine-tuning the system and getting set to test it for three weeks in February.
“This system allows you to run a thinner sheet of ice, more compact and more dense,” said Florian Gabriel, the managing director of Swich Services, the Western Canadian distributor of the REALIce technology. “It’s in use all around the world and the cost savings are significant.” On average at Memorial Arena, the ice is flooded 10 times a day. Zambonis require 200 gallons of hot water per flood. It’s a lot of hot water going onto the ice every day, costing the City of Kelowna thousands of dollars in heating bills. Back in the bowels of the 67-year-old Memorial Arena, the Zamboni is
heading out, putting down water on the ice that is just 20 C, as opposed to the normal temperature of over 60 C. It’s part of the adjustment phase of the pilot project, where the water temperature has been slowly lowered over the past several weeks with staff diligently noting things like ice temperature, time of floods, water temperature and ice quality. There are many variables involved, especially in an old building. “Right now we’re just trying to maintain some consistency to the ice,” said Steve Fagan, City of Kelowna supervisor of arenas and buildings. “There are a whole lot

of variables and we have to get them all working together. There is humidity, how many spectators are in the building, the outside temperature, the arena temperature, doors are opening and closing. “All these things impact the ice. We’re gathering information and trying to find how this system works the best.” Implementing a new way of doing things isn’t always the easiest thing to do. Change can be hard. But at Memorial Arena staff have embraced the new system, according to Fagan. With new technology comes new ways of doing things.

WestJet Encore flight route to Fort Mac to provide boost for Kelowna economy Wade Paterson STAFF REPORTER
The approximately 5,000 people in the Okanagan who work in northern Alberta will have an easier commute by this spring. Starting in May, WestJet Encore will provide daily, non-stop service to and from Fort Mc-
Murray. The flight will depart Kelowna International Airport at 7:30 a.m. and arrive in Fort McMurray at 10:26 a.m. The flight coming back will leave Fort McMurray at 10:10 p.m. and arrive in Kelowna at 11:27 p.m. According to Ferio Pugliese, president of
WestJet Encore, fares will start at $146—taxes included—for the flight to Fort McMurray and will cost $161 to fly back to Kelowna. “We know that here in the valley you have a number of workers who are working up in the oil patch,” said Pugliese. “We’re delighted we can make that sort of con-

Reporter will face harassment charge for uttering death threats Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
A Kelowna reporter who was arrested for allegedly making death threats against her teenage love interest will face criminal charges. Tieja Anne MacLaughlin was charged with felony harassment Thursday afternoon, said Brendan Siefken, deputy prosecuting attorney for the Benton County Prosecutor’s Office.
She is still behind bars, and will be arraigned and given a chance to apply for bail Friday. Meantime, newly released court documents have added detail to the circumstances that led to her entanglement in US courts. The prosecutor’s office charging documents say that while she was in Kelowna Friday Jan. 17, MacLaughlin had a phone conversation with Jackson Playfair, who was in
Kennewick Wash. In that conversation, Playfair said he had cheated on her with another girl while in Spokane. “The defendant became upset and began to make verbal threats toward him,” reads the document. “She advised him that by (Saturday) night he would be dead. Mr. Playfair advised that she threatened to kill him several times during the phone conversation.”

After the threats started, Playfair claims that he told MacLaughlin to not make a visit to the Tri Cities that was scheduled for Sunday. “She advised that she was coming down and that when she sees him it would be the last game of hockey he plays.” MacLaughlin allegedly had made threats against the well-being of Playfair, and herself, in the past, but the distance between the two made Playfair feel safe. Those feelings changed when he woke up the next day and text messages indicated that MacLaughlin was on her way to see him, and her mood hadn’t lightened up. “She again advised that he had better have things figured out or things will go bad for him,” reads the court document. Playfair became concerned, and contacted the authorities who, in turn, found MacLaughlin at the Kennewick Super 8 and told her to go home. “Officers advised her that they would not arrest her at the time, but that Mr. Playfair just wanted to

Attempted flight to freedom lands drug dealer more jail time Kathy Michaels STAFF REPORTER
Drug dealer Neil Elliot Collins was hypothermic and bloodied when police caught up with him last Boxing Day, ending his flight from the courts. “He was found in rather grave medical condition,” said Crown counsel Monica McParland, Thursday, during a sentencing hearing for a breach of parole that started Dec. 19, 2013, when Collins skipped sentencing for drug charges for which he’d earlier pleaded guilty. Winter’s chill had already settled in the Okanagan by Dec. 26, 2013 when a call notifying Mounties to Collins’s location came in, but they found him outside a West Kelowna residence wearing little more than a shirt, a pair of board shorts and tmissing a running shoe. “There was blood on his legs and clothing,” said McParland. e Upon closer examina-
L
tion, police realized Collins was soaking, shaking, semi-conscious and his legs and feet were swollen. In the end, he landed in the hospital for three days to recover from hypothermia and other undisclosed issues before going back to prison. Earlier this week he made his sentencing for the drug and weapons charges, netting a three and a half year sentence, less time served. While McParland detailed the shambolic state Collins was found, she offered no information on how the convicted drug dealer, 37, had spent his week on the lam or why he even tried to escape. All that’s clear is that Collins’s bedraggled condition was a far cry from the robust shape he was in when he fled the court system. In a compassionate twist the courts had allowed Collins—who had pleaded guilty to trafficking and possession charges relating to a signifi-
cant cache of heroin, meth and pharmaceuticals he was caught with—to be released on bail so he could spend time with his wife, who had recently been diagnosed with cancer. But on the morning he was to return to a courtroom, he cut off his electronic monitoring device and went on the run. “Police set up several road blocks in the Okanagan,” said McParland, adding they also went to all the stops they believed he may land. They also released the police helicopter, and it circled the region. “Essentially, there was an all-points bulletin.” While they didn’t find him that day, the search continued on with an eye to the border, as it was believed that Collins had ties to Mexico and plans to get there. Turns out that Collin’s mobile phone, which he handed over when he was apprehended half-dressed and half-conscious near home, had a record of all
those intentions. “(He) had help from a number of people and plans for Mexico,” McParland said, adding that Collins was “thumbing his nose at the justice sys-

b See Shelter A9t w B ( e i police to corporations to know way too much about us. More importantly, however, while we’re lucky to live somewhere with a minimal level of social strife, that may not always be the case. And if we ever need to speak out against our government, we should be allowed to do so. But, would that be feasible if the governments of the day are equipped with the technology to take your picture, immediately know your identity, address and movements? Without privacy, there’s not really democracy. Now that would really shiver me timbers.
Cringe at thought of cameras everywhere
E
ven the mere mention of nanny cam-ing Kelowna shivers me timbers. These days, mind you, it’s a faint shiver. Maybe more of a cringe, actually. There’s no denying that we live in a time where every Okanaganite and their dog is equipped with video-recording technology. So it would be falsely hysterical to wax on too much about the sanctity of absolute privacy when it’s likely that each of us is caught on candid camera at least once a day. But, a squawk of discontent is required when the city’s Top Cop tells a room that he’d like to see the city “embrace” the technology, which is what happened Wednesday.
At the Crime Stoppers KATHARTIC luncheon, RCMP Supt.
Nick Romanchuk sang the praises of CCTV. He used the technology in Trail B.C. to solve both a homicide and a load of mischief Kathy cases, he told the room. Michaels While Romanchuk doesn’t have the power to actually install the technology, it’s obvious his endorsement would go a long way to sway the opinions of those who do, and that would be so disheartening. In part, because I believe that most people are decent, law-abiding individuals and the implementation of this kind of monitoring indicates that’s no longer the case. In larger part, that privacy thing is still really important to those of us who grew up in a pre-selfie, pre-Tweeting-
your-every-movement world. And, ultimately, this kind of monitoring, as Orwell penned in 1984, is the application of “science and technology to curtail human freedom and privacy, and to control human behaviour.” Now who wants that? It’s one thing to accidentally photobomb a tourist’s snapshot, be recorded paying for groceries at the local supermarket, or blanket the Internet with self portraits, but should we get behind any movement to have all of our movements detailed and recorded by a third party? Some may say that they aren’t the ones doing anything wrong, so what’s the big deal if they’re caught on camera? I say we need to remember the bigger picture. Opening the door for this kind of monitoring allows everything from the

▼ LAWS REFLECT SOCIETY
Will we be making reparations to someone in the future for laws we apply today? To the editor: I read Alistair Water’s column in Capital News of Jan. 14. (B.C. Should Do a Better Job at Apologizing Than the Feds). He was championing the need for an apology and reparations to the Chinese community for the head tax in the 1800s. I think an apology. and money reparation are wrong. You can’t apply today’s standards, to long ago actions. The Chinese who paid the head tax knew the rules and chose to pay the price to live in this country. The law was made by
the government of the day as authorized by the voters. In the old days there were lots of rules like this. Non-whites could not immigrate to Australia until recently. White people could not immigrate to China and Japan and many other countries. This is just the way it was, and just because it was wrong in modern day thinking, it was not wrong in the context at the time. Canada executed killers in years gone by. We do not do it know. Should we now compensate the family members of these
executed criminals? If we rethink criminal incarceration in the future, should we compensate current prisoners? Homosexual sex was illegal and persecuted in the past. Gay marriage was not allowed. Should we compensate all gay people for the injustices of the past, considered in the context of society now? How about the white male applicants to the RCMP about 10 to 20 years ago, who were refused a chance to be an RCMP member, because the force would only take visible minorities and
women. Should they be compensated for this discrimination? How many laws and customs that we have now, in the future will be seen as discriminatory and wrong? Will society have to flagellate itself and pay for forgiveness? Once again, you cannot apply today’s standards to right the happenings of another age. Dave Lawrence, Kelowna PS: There is one wrong I would like addressed. Canadian citizens of Japanese origin during the Second World
War, were taken from their homes on the coast and put into internment camps in the Okanagan. This was not wrong in the context of the day. What was wrong, was the government took their land, their houses, their boats and everything that was not accompanying them to the camps, and they sold it all and kept the money. No reparations were ever made for this theft. And that pisses me off. D.L.

▼ KELOWNA WOMEN’S SHELTER
Simple things make difference when they’re needed Specialty
Shelter from A8
and kindness from a lady named Anne touched my soul and still brings tears of gratitude to me today. I wish to thank Anne and the companies for your generous contributions to her bags. You help Anne facilitate her cause and it resonates with the recipients far more than you can imagine. So thank you and bless you.
I want to send out a huge thank-you to all the companies, stores and dentists that have made our Live, Love, Laugh campaign for the Kelowna Women’s Shelter such a success, with each year being more successful than the previous. Along with my husband Lorne Brooks and my nurses (due to Lou Gehrig’s disease I need 24-hour nursing care), 2013 marked
the seventh year that we have collected toiletries to fill bags for women and children at the shelter. The items we collect for the women’s bags include things like shampoo, brushes, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soaps and lotions. At retail price, the 22 items in each woman’s bag would cost over $65 (plus tax), but with items donated from companies, stores and dentists, plus price discounts, we are able to bring the price down to $10 per bag. We ask family and friends to sponsor the gift bags and we have had people contribute from all over the world (New York, Australia and Qatar). We outdid ourselves in 2013 and were able to fill 160 women’s bags, 100 children’s parcels and several boxes filled with supplies for the shelter. The companies that
have supported our project, donating hundreds of their products since 2009, are Beiersdorf Canada (Nivea), Energizer (Schick, Skinitmate, Wet Ones and Playtex), plus Sunstar Americas (GUM). In the past we have also received products from the Dove Self-esteem Fund and Newell Rubbermaid Canada (Goody hair products). At first we had five local stores donate products or gift cards to our project, but in 2013 this number grew to 21 stores, allowing us to fill more gift bags for the shelter. These generous local stores are Save-On-Foods, Walmart, Safeway, Pharmasave, Rexall, Dyck’s Pharmacy, London Drugs, Real Canadian Superstore, Costco, Target, Lakeside Medicine Centre, Cooper’s Foods and the Hudson’s
Bay. As well, in 2012 we received donations from Sears and Serendipity Clothing Store. The number of contributing dentists has doubled and we thank Dr. Leitch, Dr. Eagleton, Sunnyside Dental (Dr. Koning and Dr. Schader), Dr. Gagner, Dr. Grover and Dr. Ashley, plus now retired both Dr. Pendletons. Last but not least, I want to give a big shout out to the staff of Capri Insurance (via Jody Hayes) that donated their Dress Down Fund to our project and the staff at the Okanagan College Finance Department (through Susan Moran) for sponsoring numerous bags rather than having a gift exchange at their office. We deliver the bags throughout the year whenever the shelter
needs them. The Kelowna Women’s Shelter said: “Our clients love these bags! It is a great moment to offer these quality products to our clients and see how excited they are… in a time of transition and uncertainty, these bags are a practical expression of support from their community.” To learn more about the Kelowna Women’s Shelter and how you can support them, check out their Facebook page or go to their website http:// kelownawomensshelter. com/. I just want to say thank you again to all of the generous companies, stores, dentists, plus the individual sponsors that help make the Live, Love, Laugh campaign possible. Anne Spelliscy, Kelowna

To the editor: I am all for punishing those who drink and drive, but punishing those who drive and don’t drink is going too far. (DUI Law Needs Random Breath Testing, Jan. 17 Capital News). What’s next, random road blocks and the forced taking of blood and urine
samples to test for being under the influence of illicit drugs, or even prescription drugs, or some other impairment-causing substance? The next thing you know, we will mirror the police state to the south of us where you can be stopped and searched without probable cause
anywhere, anytime and be subjected to various forms of delay and harassment. Are we simply going to ignore what would be a clear violation of certain Charter Rights and allow this to happen in this country? Wake up already. Grant Baudais, Kelowna

Search resumes An encouraging start to new season for new museum executive director Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER
The Kelowna Museums Society is looking for an executive director—again. After just a year and a half with the museum, Lesley Moore decided to step away from the position in December. Following on the heels of long-time employee and decade-long director Wayne Wilson, Moore originally anticipated helping the museum grow into some of the innovative options surfacing for the sector. From virtual museums, which she described to the Capital News as a “parallel world,” to research kiosks, which allow museum-goers to research a topic or share information from a station within the museum, Moore had plenty of ideas. Tom Wolf, acting board of directors chairman for the society, could not comment on her reasons for departure, but said the society has already procured a recruiter who launched a cross-Canada search to fill her shoes this week. “If I didn’t have to spend a dollar on it that would be best, but I would not say it’s (expensive),” said Wolf when asked whether the new search would cost the society financially. In fact, the acting chairman believes it will be an efficient process as the museum has already done the leg work during its previous recruitment drive, assembling a job description and learning about online recruitment options, like professional societies job boards. He noted one of the key attributes the board members are looking for in their next leader is someone who can build teams as Kelowna Museums is made up of five distinct entities which need to function cohesively and autonomously. He stressed the next executive director will also need to have a solid vision and a sense of how to ensure the financial side of the non-profit organization can thrive going forward. Moore came to Kelowna from a position as senior cultural analyst with the federal Department of Canadian Heritage in Vancouver. Her predecessor, Wayne Wilson, was with the Kelowna Museums for 35 years, over a decade of which was as its executive director. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com
One year after Ballet Kelowna was nearly forced to close its doors, the company is ready for a new season and a new director. “It’s fantastic to witness what has happened,” said Kelowna-based non-profit consultant John Grimes, who worked on the revival. “Sometimes a great challenge can make an organization much stronger. There’s a deep passion in this community for ballet and dance and the arts, and for the richer quality of life they bring. “When you tap into that level of passion, as Ballet Kelowna has done, the future is not about challenges anymore, it’s about opportunities.” Among those opportunities will be the replacement of founding artistic director David LaHay, who will step away from the company he created this spring. “I’m proud of the out-
standing performances that our dancers have brought to the province over the years. “I love being with our dancers who are working in the studio now, preparing for the upcoming tour and our season finalé in Kelowna. “But I’m also extremely excited about where the next generation of dancers, and a new artistic director, will take the company. The possibilities are exhilarating.” The company credits the outpouring of support from audiences, members, and donors for the revival. “Together, we’ve certainly done what many people thought was impossible,” said new board president Deborah Ward. “…And it’s more than simple optimism. The proof is in the numbers. “Our 2013-14 season got off to a terrific start, with sold out holiday performances of The
Nutcracker with the Canadian School of Ballet. Our finances are stable, and we’re operating in the black again. Membership has also virtually tripled over the past year.” Former executive dir-
ector Alison Moore, who has returned to the helm of the company on an interim basis during the transition, said there is strong interest among a number of well-qualified professionals to take
the position. The previous board named a dire financial situation, lack of attendance and LeHay’s impending retirement among its reasons for trying to shut the company down last February.

Before Rodney and Gloria Lozinski travel to Coquitam to work the phones at Variety’s Show of Hearts Telethon this weekend, they’ll be sure to pack their pirate costumes. The Lozinskis have volunteered for Variety’s annual Boat for Hope event, which is also put on by Kelowna Yacht Club and the Okanagan Boys and Girls Club, for the last four years. Every June, hundreds of local children with disabilities are taken out on Okanagan Lake for a morning of pirate adventure. KYC volunteers, dressed up as pirates, take the kids to five stationed, decorated sailboats to engage in a water fight and take booty. “It’s just a feel good day,” said Rodney. Gloria said she remembers one child in particular who was hesitant about the event at first, but ended up having the time of his life. “He came off our boat and he was totally soaked and had this grin that stayed for the rest of the day,” said Gloria. This Sunday Rodney and Gloria will be volunteering more of their time—and paying their own travel expenses—to answer phones for Variety—The Children’s Charity’s annual telethon. “This is the first time our members have been invited to show up at the telethon,” said Shannon Gail, chair of this year’s Boat for Hope committee. “It’s important for us to get the word out that Kelowna is represented at the telethon.” Rodney and Gloria plan to wear their Boat for Hope pirate gear when they answer phones at the telethon Sunday. “We’ll be sitting on the front stage, with two people from the Royal Vancouver Yacht Club and two people from the Victoria Yacht Club. I don’t know if they’re dressing up, but we are,” said Rodney. The Variety Show of Hearts Telethon takes place Jan. 25 and 26 on Global BC. The Lozinskis will be taking calls from 1 to 2 p.m. Sunday. To reach Rodney during that time, call: 604549-7024; to reach Gloria, call 604-549-7025. This year’s Boat for Hope event takes place June 21 and it will run off the new public pier. Gail said there will be lots of room at this year’s event. Those who know of a child who might benefit from Boat for Hope can visit variety.bc.ca.

It’s getting increasingly difficult to escape technology. The spread of mobile devices has driven a culture of “connectedness,” where email, social media and Internet are never more than a finger-tap away. As our online networks expand, are we forced to withdraw from some of our ‘real life’ interactions? This and other related questions will be discussed at an upcoming public forum titled: “Plugged In: Is technology connecting us? Or controlling us?” The panel discussion takes place Thursday, Jan. 30, 6:30 to 9 p.m., with a reception to follow, at the Coast Capri Hotel in Kelowna. Advance registration is required online at http://www.gifttool.com/registrar/ShowEventDetails?ID=1420&EID=16329. Or contact Krista Stokell by email at krista.stokell@ ubc.ca, or call 250-807-9360. The moderator for the panel will be Chris Walker, host of CBC’s Daybreak. The panelists will include Josh Byron, project manager for Moving Pixel Productions; Maxine Crawford, UBCO psychology student and student senator; Michelle Davies, digital strategist; and Christopher Schneider, UBCO assistant professor of sociology.

Cost from A3 with cutting-edge technology for North America. “This certainly seems like it could be the way of the future and we’re trying to do our part,” said Fagan. “It’s new technology and staff are embracing it. They are excited to see what the results are. “It’s a different era of sustainability. It’s important that we do what we can to lower our energy costs.” The pilot project began back in December when staff recorded temperatures and energy usage under the old way of doing things. The REALIce system was then installed and after the Kelowna International midget hockey tournament in early January, the ice at Memorial was shaved down by about half an inch and built back up using the new system. It only took 48 hours and ice users were not impacted. The biggest user of ice is Kelowna Minor Hockey and all user groups will be asked for their input following the testing phase. The city is also using several data recording devices that will be monitored to help provide the ultimate answer as to whether or not the system will be adopted full-time. “We want to make good quality ice,” said Martin Johansen, the manager of building services for the City of Kelowna. “That’s what the decision will ultimately be based on.

CANADIAN comedian Brent Butt will bring his
stand-up routine to Kelowna Community Theatre for one show Feb. 19.
COMEDY
Canadian comedian, actor and writer Brent Butt will bring his standup comedy routine to Kelowna for a performance Feb. 19 at the Kelowna Community Theatre. “It is extremely rare for me to do a long, extended tour like this, and I am super pumped to hit the road,” said Butt, perhaps best known as the creator behind the TV comedy Corner Gas. “A different town and a different stage every night. This is what being a stand-up is all about. This, and poor late-night snacking choices.” Butt started to pursue a career in stand-up in his 20s and within months, was headlining the top clubs in Toronto. Within a couple of years, he was touring internationally and appearing at major festivals. His television specials quickly secured his reputation as one of the funniest people in Canada. Corner Gas was an instant hit in Canada and the show earned a rare international appeal in the U.S. and 25 other countries.
In addition to Corner Gas, Butt also created yet another sitcom called Hiccups, which aired for two seasons and garnered multiple awards. Corner Gas and Hiccups have become the two highest rated Canadian shows in the history of the Comedy Network. Now making the transition to movies, Butt will appear in the upcoming film No Clue, a murder mystery set for release March 7, which he both stars in and directed.
And that’s the way I’ve told it,” said Marchand. The Lunchbox Lecture Series is collaboration between Kelowna Museums, Kelowna Art Gallery, The Rotary Centre for the Arts, and the Okanagan Regional Library. Every Wednesday features a different guest speaker at one of these four locations. To find out more about this and other Lunchbox speakers, visit www.kelownamuseums. ca or call 250-763-2417.
CONCERT
Juno Award nominees the Sultans of String will
perform in concert at the Creekside Theatre in Lake Country on Feb. 4, 7:30 p.m. Known for their dizzying music jams, poly-rhythms and revved up riffs, the Sultans of String sound can’t be pinned down—it’s Sable Island meets the Silk Road, with detours through the Gypsy-Jazz coffeehouses of Eastern Europe, next an East Coast Kitchen Party, then over to the majestic Arctic and bustling markets of Lebanon. The band is led by six-string violinist Chris McKhool, who grew up
in a Lebanese-Egyptian house bursting with music and diversity. Growing up, Chris was fed a steady diet of delicious musicality alongside Middle Eastern cuisine and violin lessons. When McKhool first heard founding guitarist Kevin Laliberté’s rumba rhythm, their musical synergy created Sultans of String’s signature sound—the intimate and playful relationship between violin and guitar. From this rich foundation, the dynamic duo has grown, featuring such amazing musical friends as second guitarist Eddie Paton, bass player Drew Birston and Cuban percussionist Chendy Leon. Creekside Theatre is located at 10241 Bottomwood Lake Rd. in Lake Country For tickets call 250766-9309 or go online to www.creeksidetheatre. com.
KELOWNA MUSEUMS
Kelowna Museums welcomes author Arnie Marchand to share stories for the Lunchbox Lecture Series slated for Jan. 29, noon, at the Okanagan Heritage Museum, 470 Queensway Ave. Marchand is the author of The Way I Heard It: A Three Nation Reading Vacation. “I didn’t want these stories to be lost. Many of our elder people told me the stories years ago and before I wrote the book I spoke with them or their families and they’d say, ‘That’s the way I heard it.’

ART GALLERY
The Kelowna Art Gallery presents Quick Talks on Wednesday, Jan.29, from 7 to 9 p.m., in conjunction with the gallery’s current exhibition, Unreal. Quick Talks will be moderated by Robert Belton, associate professor of art history with the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies at UBCO, and author of the book, The Beribboned Bomb: The Image of Women in Male Surrealist Art. Belton’s research has focused on Surrealist art and film, Canadian art and architecture, and issues of art theory. He will be starting the evening by illuminating works and themes from the exhibition, Unreal. Unreal contains work by 28 artists who explore beyond the realm of what is considered real. The works are grouped by sub-theme: The Unconscious, The Haunted, The Absurd, and The Disassembled. Some of the artists included have never been on exhibition in Kelowna before, for example, Irish-born painter Francis Bacon, and American photography-based artist Cindy Sherman. Joining Belton on the panel will be Okanagan-based artist Julie Oakes, along with Kelsie Balehowsky, and Malcolm McCormick, two emerging artists who are currently students at UBCO. Each panelist will speak for 10 minutes about a selected work from the exhibition, and discuss how it has influenced their artistic practice. Talks will be backto-back, after which our moderator will field questions from the panel and audience. Quick Talks are
free and open to the public. Unreal will be on view at the Kelowna Art Gallery, 1315 Water St., until March 9. For more information see www.kelownaartgallery.com or call 250-7622226.

CONCERT
A concert featuring the hit songs of Whitney Houston called The Greatest Love Of All will take place May 19 at the Kelowna Community Theatre. The show, starring singer Belinda Davids, is a tribute to Houston, featuring many of the songs from her musical catalogue that spanned 29 years before her tragic death in 2012. To stage this show, promoter Showtime Management dedicated over 12 months to perfecting this production and finding the right star. After conducting over 15,000 auditions in 12 countries, Davids, an accomplished South African vocalist, was selected to pay reverence to Houston with her carefully crafted renditions. Davids’ ethereal voice and long music career as a solo recording artist and as a support act and backing vocalist includes working with The Temptations, Keri Hilson, Keyshia Cole, Monica and Johnny Gill. Tickets are available at www.ticketmaster.ca.
ART EXHIBIT
The Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art welcomes Geotrope, a multidisciplinary exhibition by Ella Morton. Using a device known as zoetrope—a spinning cylinder that illustrates motion in a series of images—Morton has created a kinetic installation involving images of Canadian and American landscape. The photos are on semi-transparent 4x5inch film, so that when the zoetrope spins, the images blend together in animation. Through movement and imagery, Geotrope explores how we relate to time and place, and how we confront mystery and the unknown. Extending into public space will be the installation Roadside Majestic: Celebrating the (Un) Charm of North America, which explores the culture of highway travel. The interactive art-
work will be a large and vaguely drawn map of North America with humorous landmarks written all over it. Participants are invited to write comments on provided markers and place them on the map. The Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art welcomes the public to view the exhibition between Jan. 31 and March 15. There will be a reception and artist talk on Saturday, Feb. 15, 3 p.m. The Alternator Centre for Contemporary Art is an artist-run centre located in Kelowna at the Rotary Centre for the Arts, 421 Cawston Ave.
FESTIVAL

FOOD WINE FARM REPORT
Jennifer Schell More on the wild theme, Duck, Duck Goose—Recipes and Techniques for Cooking Ducks and Geese, both Wild and Domesticated by Hank Shaw really inspired me. I am quite familiar with cooking with duck, although I have never had the opportunity to “cook my own goose” (ha). The book refers to duck having a renaissance of sorts as it experiences a return to menus during the “marsh-to-table revolution.” Recipes like Braised Duck with Leeks and Sauerkraut sound like ideal comfort food and I

love the variety of recipes featuring the range of international flavours that duck can so effortlessly embrace. An amazing culinary reference book and hunter’s guide, Shaw includes lessons on breaking down a whole duck or goose, plucking, hanging, carving and beer and wine pairing notes. A Duck Camp Survival Kit checklist is included and a wild duck species guide by country for hunters and enthusiasts. Tara Duggan’s Root to Stalk Cooking—The Art of Using the Whole Vegetable has been called “a love song to vegetables.” From bulb to stem, from root to shoot and leaf to flower, this cook-
book is chockfull of creative and delicious ways to eat your veggies— every bit of them. Just like they used to do in the old country, scraps, trimmings, root tops and peelings are used—nothing is wasted. I love this philosophy and find it very timely as the modern world begins its migration back to farmers markets and the days of sustainability (or as I dream it to be). The Scraps Latkes recipe that uses just that— vegetable trimmings and such left over from another recipe. What to do with your potato peelings? How does Potato Skin Bacon Fat Chips made from potato peelings alone sound?
Your compost pile may not be too happy with the neglect, but Oma will be. Not just veggie recipes either, there are meat and fish recipes as well. Exploring China—100 Recipes from Our Journey. Chinese food specialists from the UK, Ken Hom and Ching-He Huang, have been earning rave reviews for their recent collaborative documentary and cookbook effort. Ken and Ching provide a unique insider perspective on this complicated, intriguing and delicious country and its cuisine. The personal reflective essays from the authors and detailed history of the dishes makes for a unique and interesting read. Exploring China: A Culinary Adventure is also a four-part British documentary television series that aired on BBC Two. Jennifer Schell is editor of B.C.

Adapting to climate change discussion
Since the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change issued its consensus reports on climate change, the global science and policy discussion has come to include a stronger recognition that Canadians must now also plan for the impacts of climate change. Across Canada the effects of climate change will differ greatly by region and community. The National Municipal Adaptation Project (NMAP) is a university-based research group that works to assess the state of planning for adaptation and resiliency in Canadian local governments, develop case studies, and generate applied knowledge that can help advance adaptation planning. Just like recent weather events there’s good news and bad news, says Kevin Hanna, associate professor of geography in the Irving K. Barber School of Arts and Sciences at UBC Okanagan, and one of the project’s leaders. “The good news from our survey is that Canada’s major cities recognize the importance of adaptation and are moving ahead,” said Hanna. “The bad news is that many small communities are not there yet; and they may be the most vulnerable. “We found that provincial governments are very influential,” Hanna added “Steady provincial policy support not only for adaptation initiatives, but for areas such as reducing climate change contributions and alternative energy development, are important for spurring local governments to think about how they can protect themselves from the impacts of climate change.” DO YOU WANT TO SEE YOUR

▼ SUN RUN TRAINING
Shaping up to be on the run Kevin Parnell STAFF REPORTER
Angela Preston wasn’t completely new to running when she joined the Sun Run InTraining clinic last year. Like many, she had participated in track and field and ran some distances in high school, but in the years since graduation, the 32-year-old professional had stopped running altogether. And not only that, although she was interested in getting started again to keep in shape and improve her health, Preston wasn’t sure she had the proper skills because when she had tried to get back into running, she had not enjoyed it. “The main challenges I had trying to do it on my own was I wasn’t doing it properly. I was getting tired or hurting so I wasn’t having any fun,” said Preston. “I never really understood running as a recreation. It was difficult because I didn’t know the techniques and wasn’t sure of the proper breathing and the little things that you overlook because you are ignorant to it all. There are tools you need to enjoy it and make it a whole lot more fun.” Last year Preston and a group from her work decided to join the Vancouver Sun Run InTraining program, a 13- week training program that culminates with participants taking part in the 10-kilometre long Vancouver Sun Run. The clinic included group runs as well as information sessions and eased runners into longer distances, using

Rockets host speedy Tigers Warren Henderson STAFF REPORTER
Two weeks ago, the Kelowna Rockets roared back from a 3-0 deficit to knock off the hometown Medicine Hat Tigers 5-4. On Friday night, expect the Tigers to be chomping at the bit to get even as they battle the Rockets in WHL action at Prospera Place. Medicine Hat is fresh off a 6-1 drubbing of the Vancouver Giants on Wednesday, while the Rockets dropped the Everett Silvertips 6-3 the same night in Kelowna. “The (Tigers) had a good game in Vancouver, they’re a very fast team with a good skill set,” said Rockets head coach Ryan Huska. “We’re going to need a good push to start
and be ready to play… we did a lot of standing around early on in Medicine Hat and that’s why we got in trouble.” The Rockets are in the early stages of a stretch which sees them play 11 of their next 14 games on home ice—this after playing 16 of their last 18 on the road. Their victory over Everett Wednesday was the Rockets’ seventh straight on home ice but the two points didn’t come easy as Kelowna needed a pair of empty net goals to seal the deal. “I felt we were flat,” Huska said. “The work ethic was there, but we just weren’t sharp in the way we thought the game. For whatever reason, that seems to happen a lot when you play your first
game at home after a road trip. We need to be better.” The newest Rocket, forward Marek Tvrdon, made his debut on Kelowna and scored in the second period on a set-up from Nick Merkley. “He has offensive ability, a good shot and the ability to see the ice well,” said of the 20-year-old Tvrdon who is a prospect of the Detroit Red Wings. “Our challenge right now is getting him prepared for next year, making him a better player for us by working harder at both ends of the ice, and being more consistent.” The Rockets will host the Lethbridge Hurricanes Saturday, then will visit the Seattle Thunderbirds on Sunday.

timed runs. Clinic leaders helped participants with their running program as well as offering tips on proper techniques. “It was nice to have the support and to have the system implemented by the leaders,” said Preston. “At the beginning you run for a minute and then walk for a minute and you’re thinking ‘how am I ever going to run 10 kilometres?’” But over the 13 weeks and as the intervals between running and walking changed, the participants were running for 40 minutes straight as they were approaching the Sun Run. The group then traveled together and ran the Vancouver Sun Run’s 10-kilometre course. “I remember when we ran for 10 minutes
straight and I thought this was never going to happen,” said Preston. “But then we were running for 40 minutes straight. When we went to Vancouver we were all thinking back to when we were freaking out over being able to run for five minutes. Then we did the run and it was crazy. We all met up at the finish line so everyone could share their experiences. It was a pretty remarkable experience.” Since taking part in the Sun Run clinic and the actual 10-kilometre course, Preston has not only kept running for recreation but she has also taken it to another level. She ran a few more 10 kilometre races and even went longer, completing both the Wine Country Half Marathon and the Okanagan half marathon
as well as several other races. This year she will be a leader at the Sun Run Clinic and perhaps most important she feels healthier than ever. “I felt a great sense of accomplishment (completing the Sun Run),” she said. “I’m sleeping better, I have more energy, I want to go outside. The Sun Run is something that is achievable by everybody. The clinics are a controlled environment where everyone is looking out for each other and helping you make that goal.” The Sun Run Clinic starts Jan. 29 in Kelowna.

Kelowna gymnastics athletes in national development program A pair of Kelowna gymnasts gained some valuable national experience at the Canadian Stream Cup competition last weekend in Montreal. Okanagan Gymnastics Centre teammates Gabriela Beselt and Lucia Jakab, both age 10, competed for Team B.C. for the first time, and were accompanied on the trip by coach Sergei Chelest. The girls are in a national development program called National Pre-Novice Elite. This is a designed to help gear some of Canada’s youngest athletes to the High Performance and International scene. British Columbia has a decently strong
contingent of Pre-Novice athletes, however, there are not many from the rest of Western Canada. It was important for these young ladies to see what else the country has to offer and how strong the teams from the east are. The girls competed the first day of competition which was the team final and also preliminaries for qualifying to event finals. Team B.C. came away with a third medal place overall on Saturday. Gabriela Beselt qualified to compete on floor and beam and vault finals. Lucia had a great score of 15.1 on floor was in top three in that event. She qualified to the floor and vault finals. t event. She will
compete in floor and vault. Samantha Fourchalk, the other member of Team B.C., made it to finals in beam and vault. Sunday was day two of the competition where the girls started on vault. Gabriela came away with a great score of 15.25 and a thirdplace showing, while Lucia came fourth. Then at beam, Gabriela was sixth facing tough competition from Quebec and Ontario. Lucia started the entire group of pre-novice competitors and earned an unbeatable 15.15, until the last girl. Lucia settled for a well deserved second-place. Gabriela earned a 14.70 and finished in a close fourth place.

Busy schedule for Heat Canada West this weekend SPRINGteams MAINTENANCE SPRING UBC Okanagan’s four Canada West varsity teams are in action this weekend, with the volleyball squads at home and basketball teams on the road. Here’s a look at the schedule of games:
• WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL
The 10-6 Heat will look to get off the schnied this weekend, playing host to the 8-8 Alberta Pandas Friday and Saturday evening from UBC’s Okanagan campus gymnasium. The meeting of the No. 4 and No. 5 teams in the nation went sour in a hurry for the Heat, and extended the entire weekend in the Spartan’s dismissing of the visiting Heat squad. The No. 4 Heat would lose both games to No. 5 Trinity Western,
falling Friday 3-0 (25-9, 25-18, 25-23) and Saturday 3-0 (25-20, 25-13, 2523). The Heat and Pandas will face off Friday, January 24 at 6 p.m. from UBC’s Okanagan campus gymnasium, and conclude their series on Saturday, January 25 at 5 p.m.
• MEN’S VOLLEYBALL
After almost defeating Canada West’s top-ranked team, the 4-10 Heat will look to continue their strong play of late, as they play host to the fourthranked 11-5 Alberta Golden Bears. The Heat came within 15 points of dethroning a one-loss Trinity Western Spartan club last Friday evening, but fell short 3-2 (25-15, 22-25, 19-25, 25-17, 15-9). On Saturday night, the Spartans made
sure not to take the Heat likely, taking UBC Okanagan out in straight sets 3-0 (25-23, 25-20, 25-21). The Heat are hoping home-court advantage will make the difference this weekend versus the Golden Bears, January 24 and 24, from UBC’s Okanagan campus gymnasium in Kelowna, BC. Friday’s game is scheduled for 8 p.m, while Saturday’s game begins an hour earlier at 7 p.m.
• WOMEN’S BASKETBALL
The 3-11 Heat will make a short jaunt this weekend down Highway 5 to visit the 10-4 Pacific Division leaders, the University of Fraser Valley Cascades for a two game series beginning Friday, January 24. Last weekend, the Heat were able to earn a
• MEN’S BASKETBALL
After earning a weekend split, the 3-11 Heat will make their way to Abbotsford chasing that elusive first road victory when they face off against the 9-5 University of Fraser Valley Cascades. The Heat were poised to sweep the visiting Trinity Western Spartans, but a disastrous second half to Saturday night’s game spoiled the victory for the Heat, who were tied 40-

NEWS ▼ SWINGING WITHTHE STARS
Local celebrities put their best feet forward for charitable cause Waltz, disco and even hip-hop are hitting the streets once again as local celebrities gear up for Kelowna’s sixth annual Swinging with the Stars fundraiser presented by Bayshore Home Health. The event takes place Saturday, March 1, at The Delta Grand Okanagan Resort. Based on the popular television show Dancing with the Stars, Kelowna’s version will pair professional dance instructors with local celebrities to raise money for the Central Okanagan Hospice Association. Tickets went on sale last Friday, Jan. 17. Over the years, the event has become the talk of the town, says Swinging with the Stars coordinator Jan Woolsey. “We had no idea this event would have such longevity. We are heading into our sixth year and already have dancing stars lined up for 2015. This year we are shaking things up by including dance performances outside the ballroom genre,” Woolsey said. Local celebrities for 2014 who will strut their stuff include ReMax realtors Julie and Wolfe Krieg;
Moxie’s executive general manager, Lonnie Van Diest; The Wedding Café owner and WestJet employee, Jenn Taylor; president of Loyal’s Hair Therapy, Loyal Wooldridge and partner Ian Roth, junior transportation engineer, Opus International Consultants; Dr. Christian Brix, chiropractor, Brix Family Chiropractic & Wellness Center and his fiancé, Jessica Turanec, development and events coordinator at Aberdeen Prep School as well as a fitness instructor at The Woman’s Place; and Marion Henselwood, president COHA board of directors and branch manager at Valley First/ West Kelowna and Peachland. The dancing stars are currently in training with at least 10 hours of preparation from local Kelowna professional dance instructors. The professional dance instructors involved this year include Chris Thorburn, Kelowna Ballroom; Carley Bailey and Chisa Glendenning, Canadian School of Ballet; Diane Pratt; Samantha Sambrielaz, Latinesque Ballroom and Latin Dance Studio; and Melodie Sharma, Kelowna Dance and Performing Arts. The dancers showcase their choreographed routine at the event
and the audience in attendance vote for their favourite dancer that night. Following the same premise as the TV show, there will be three judges on hand to present their comments on the performance. Three trophies will be presented— Most Pledges Raised, Audience Choice and Judges Choice. “Not many events bring the whole community together as this one does and we are most grateful for the support that this event brings to our organization,” said Susan Steen, executive director of the Central Okanagan Hospice Association. Another facet of the competition is an opportunity for the public to get involved by pledging for their favourite celebrity on the COHA website: www.kelownahospice.org Tickets are $200 and available at the COHA office, 104-1456 St. Paul St., or by calling 250-7635511. Central Okanagan Hospice Association is a community-based non-profit organization that provides services and supports, through trained volunteers, to individuals living with our dying from advanced illnesses and their loved ones.

Cautious optimism for economic growth Alistair Waters ASSISTANT EDITOR
The chief economist for Scotia Bank is bullish on Canada and B.C.’s prospects for 2014. But Warren Jestin says making economic forecasts these days is a difficult task because we have entered what he calls economic territory never seen before. Despite that, he predicted Canada will do well this year but that will have as much to do with decisions made elsewhere in the world. Jestin told a Kelowna Chamber of Commerce luncheon Thursday the real story may not be what happens here, but what happens in other
parts of the world that we, in North America, are not familiar with. “People think of China differently now,” Jestin said, pointing to that country’s burgeoning economy and new role as a global economic powerhouse. He said with China’s demand for raw materials and resources such as natural gas and lumber growing, as well as its production of commodities like steel—something natural gas can be used to help produce—other countries are clambering to supply China, just as Canada, and particularly B.C., is doing. He said B.C. is in a race with countries like Australia and the U.S. to get their natural gas indus-

tries up and running to the point where they can supply China with the natural gas it wants. With its huge population, growing personal wealth and pent-up demand for consumer goods, a huge market exists in China. Jestin said that country, along with India, are also now the two biggest consumers of gold on the planet and China produces 50 per cent of the world’s steel compared to the U.S.’s 10 per cent. It sells more cars than Canada, the U.S. and Mexico combined. “Who are you going to pay attention to?” he asked his audience. While the Scotia Bank chief economist said the
economic picture is looking rosier both in the U.S. and Europe now, it still has a long way to go to get back to where it was prior to the world financial meltdown that hit in 2008. Meanwhile back here in Canada, Jestin said he feels the fundamentals are stronger than in the U.S. despite the fact the level of growth south of the boarder there is bigger. Pointing to the recent battles between the U.S. Congress and President Barack Obama, Jestin said political decisions also play a part and it is a very different picture in Washington than in Ottawa. Despite a recent budget deal in the U.S. Congress, lawmakers

there still have a very short-term outlook when it comes to the economy, he said, something that is unthinkable in this country. When one looks at budgets here, one routinely sees a five-year financial plan laid out. “Down there, they look ahead five weeks,” he said. While Jestin is optimistic about this country’s economic growth in 2014, he said afterward his address that he feels is B.C. definitely “on the right track” when it comes to its liquified natural gas plans. With 1.5 billion people, the market is immense as is the production and that’s why B.C. is racing to get its liquified natural gas industry up and running quickly as possible to try and lock in a large share of the lucrative Chinese market. While Jestin said he felt the provincial government has done a good job managing the economy over the last 10 years, one

GUEST speaker for the Kelowna Chamber of
Commerce luncheon Thursday was Scotia Bank chief economist Warren Jestin. of the areas that needs attention is skills training. He said that training is an important component of meeting the economic demands of the future. As for Canada’s dollar, which has been dropping in value lately, Jestin predicted it will fall even further. It could go as low as 85 cents against the U.S. dollar, he predicted. As the U.S. economy strengthens and Canada’s Central Bank governor talks about not only holding interest rates where they are, but possibly lowering them further, the
U.S. dollar will be seen as safer place to be, he said. But he reiterated that because the world is heading into unchartered economic waters, making accurate economic forecasts remains difficult. While the U.S. economy is recovering, albeit slowly, and that is good for Canada because of the amount of goods we export south of the border, Jestin said we also need to turn at least part of our attention to developing countries that are on the rise. awaters@kelownacapnews.com
Chamber applauds border ruling B.C. business people crossing the U.S. border to do business have new protection against expedited removal laws, thanks to a recent U.S. district court ruling. Under expedited removal laws, a Canadian trying to cross into the U.S. has faced a regime that empowers border guards, at their own discretion, to bar Canadians entry to the U.S. for periods of five years or more. However, a Jan. 9 decision by the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeal has recognized an exemption to expedited removal laws for Canadians crossing the border for bona fide business or tourism purposes. This is the first time since the expedited removal laws were passed in 1996 that any U.S. court, administrative tribunal or other body has recognized the existence of such an exemption. “This is great news for B.C.’s cross-border business community,” said John Winter, president and CEO of the
B.C. Chamber of Commerce. “This decision lessens border stress for business people and tourists and promotes cross-border trade.” Additionally, on Dec. 30, 2013, U.S. Customs and Border Protection cancelled an expedited removal order that had been issued against B.C. actor Chad Rook on Jan. 28, 2013, when Rook was attempting to cross the border to look for acting work in Los Angeles. Under the order, Rook had faced a five-year ban on entering the U.S. Winter said the court decision, plus the reversal of Rook’s expedited removal order, sends a strong message to border guards to think twice before issuing expedited removal orders. “We trust these two decisions will make U.S. border services use the expedited removal process more judiciously,” he said. “And if errors are made, B.C. business people can take comfort that they have legal recourse.”

Sage advice from worldly author stands the test of time F or the past five months I’ve had the true pleasure of getting to know two fine young men who’ve been studying insanely hard to become paramedics. It was a hell of a course and as Mark and Graham worked hard to get through it, Tez and I were cheering heartily— akin to adoptive parents. Late last night (while I attempted sleep) my brain typically tap-danced across a floor of thoughts. Amongst the myriad of mental messages was the brief thought pattern that I’d like to find the boys a card, or a little wall hanging, or even a beer mug, that had something profound written on it about achievement, graduation, moving forward in life…blah, blah, blah. Something sort of adoptive Dadish. This morning, this little gem of prose re-appeared in my email box and I figured it was poignant enough to print out and give to Mark and Graham. There is no sense trying to plagiarize it or improve upon it. Allegedly, this is a

Sing. Don’t be reckless with other people’s hearts. Don’t put up with people who are reckless with yours. “Floss. Don’t waste your time on jealousy. Sometimes you’re ahead, sometimes you’re behind.

ONE OF only 30 Jaguar XKR-S GT supercars made for
2014 will be on display at the Kelowna Jaguar dealership in Kelowna. • Six speed automatic transmission with aluminium paddle shifters • The warm charcoal interior has red accents and performance seats, finished in soft-grain leather •The exterior is available exclusively in Polaris White with unique graphics • The XKR-S GT utilizes race-car derived technology, all-aluminium construction and an uncompromised approach to aerodynamic efficiency, the result is a car as capable on the track as it is exhilarating on the road • Initial production will be limited to just 30 cars, making it the rarest
‘R’ model in the 25-year history of Jaguar’s R performance cars • Through the addition of aerodynamic aids including a carbon-fibre front splitter, dive planes, extended wheelarch spats, an elevated rear wing, rear diffuser and an aluminium valance, the XKR-S GT achieves maximum downforce of 145 kg • Its carbon ceramic brake system—a first for a production Jaguar—features 398 mm and 380 mm discs front/ rear gripped respectively by six- and four-piston monoblock calipers • The XKR-S GT uses a new development of front and rear suspension
that includes a wider front track, increased camber, revised bushings, a new steering system and faster steering ratio, all developed upon learning gained from Jaguar’s new F-TYPE two-seater sports car • Height adjustable and bespoke adaptive dampers feature a race-derived twin spring system and increased rates of 68% at the front and 25% at the rear. Ian Callum, director of design for Jaguar, says “The XKR-S GT is an uncompromised car, but one that inspires confidence and encourages the driver to push it to its limits, fully exploring its handling abilities. It’s a car that draws you in and is never intimidating, with performance that is both accessible and rewarding.” Kelowna Jaguar is a division of Kelowna AutoSport, a Vaughn Wyant Automotive Group company. Call 250-4919348 for more information about when the car will be on display.

Back pain?
“I had been suffering with a painful neck and shoulder for almost four years following a car accident, also I was experiencing pain with my hand for a few weeks. Then I went for a few acupuncture treatments and I am happy to report that they have helped me greatly to have me free of pain.” ~ Beatrice, KELOWNA
“I was having severe lower back pain. I saw my medical doctor and was given pain killers. I could only sleep 3 hours at a time, waking up in pain. I decided to try acupuncture as my father did 40 years ago and the results are way beyond my expectation. My pain is virtually gone and I am again enjoying life to its fullest.” ~ Ron, KELOWNA
Tired of not getting results from other treatment methods? Get effective pain relief with acupuncture! WCB, ICBC, DVA, MSP, and Extended Health plans accepted.

I crashed into a tree mountain biking and impaled myself, severing my femoral artery. I arrived at the Shuswap Hospital with only 10% of my blood remaining and was immediately rushed to KGH where the vascular surgical team was waiting. Against all odds, they saved my life. I have since made the best life choice I could have ever made, to become a nurse.

What I don’t always talk about is the great on-road driving capabilities. The Toyota 4Runner hugs the road and the bucket seats hug you. It is very comfortable to drive and you feel safe driving it. The suspension and shocks give you a firm ride but not enough to give you that washboard effect. Vision while driving is superb, with little to no blind spots. The thick steering wheel and responsive steering makes you feel like you are driving a car. Verdict The Toyota 4Runner could be on just about everybody’s wish list, given its on and off-road capabilities.

DETROIT—As goes the North American International Auto Show, so goes the industry to which it provides high profile. Every year at this time, journalists from around the world descend in their thousands on this former industrial powerhouse, now economically depressed Michigan city. The Driveway team has just returned and we all agreed there was an air of optimism on the show floor that we haven’t witnessed for some years.

Volkswagen Dune concept. Representatives of the Big Four domestic manufacturers believe they have turned the corner and the fellow scribes appear to agree that the North American brands have been revitalized. Today in print and online, we each pick five vehicles that caught our eye. Yours truly has been a fan of Honda’s premium Acura brand. All solid performers but in recent years the design team has let the range down with uninspiring looks. The 2015 Acura TLX Prototype unveiling suggests the team is out of its uninspiring funk. This performance-luxury sedan, which will launch this summer, looks fresh and sporty. It will replace the TL and the TSX and will be the design leader as new models are revealed during the next few years. TLX customers will be able to choose from two-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations; two high-performance, highly fuel-efficient new engines—2.4-litre in-line four and 3.5-litre V6; two new advanced transmissions; and the next generation Acura Super-Handling All Wheel Drive (SH-AWD) and Precision All-Wheel Steer (P-AWS) dynamic performance and handling technologies. Audi showed of its compact crossover concept, unimaginatively dubbed the All Road Shooting Brake concept. It’s based on the forthcoming TT, this concept uses the S3’s 2.0TFSi engine of 292hp. It also gets a hybrid motor between the engine and the S-Tronic transmission. The market for the wagons is not big on this side of the pond but this could be a game changer.
‘‘
The Big Four… believe they have turned the corner. Keith Morgan

It combines the elegant lines of a wagon with the wide and higher stance of an offroad capable vehicle. “The show car combines sex appeal, highly efficient e-tron-quattro technology that produces 300 kW of power yet only consumes 1.9 l/100 km of fuel and cutting-edge electronic applications,” says Audi board member Prof. Dr. Ulrich Hackenberg. The 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe is based on its sedan sibling and should be available by mid-summer, starting at the mid $30,000s. The base power plant is a 2.0-litre, turbocharged inline four-cylinder, generating 272 horses, and a 3.6-litre V6, 321 hp is also available. Interesting little feature: because coupes typically have large, long doors, the reach behind the shoulder to grab the seatbelt can be a stretch. The ATS Coupe has motorized carriers to “hand” the seatbelt to the driver and front passenger upon entry. The Toyota FT-1 coupe concept caused a stir among those hungering for a return to the days of the Toyota Celica/Supra. Company officials were coy about whether it will go into production but judging by the media attention it will. The Volkswagen Beetle Dune has a rugged offroad look, largely due to the raising of the body by 50 mm and the addition of 19-inch wheels with large tyres. Just like the old days, the new Beetle features a rear-mounted ski-rack. The concept is actually a return to an idea from January 2000, when VW showed the New Beetle Dune concept in Los Angeles. That was a flight fancy, this concept is built on the current production model and the German manufacturer is looking for the nod to proceed from Beetle buyers. keith.morgan@drivewaybc. ca

Zack’s Hot picks from Detroit
Corvette Z06.
ZACK SPENCER
PUT ON YOUR BOOTS, YOUR PARKA, AND YOUR SYMMETRICAL ALL-WHEEL DRIVE.
The motor city was abuzz at this year’s Detroit Auto Show. The car industry is roaring back in the US and we have record sales in Canada, so there are many new products for all segments of the market.
the early part of 2015.
Corvette Z06 The performance Corvette Z06 got its name back in the 1960s when customers could order a high performance “Z06” package that delivered a track-ready Corvette. Today Chevrolet is still delivering track-ready Corvettes, now they come with the Z06 name. The all-new 7th generation Corvette Stingray was unveiled last year in Detroit and it won the North American Car of the Year award, exactly a year after it debuted. This year it was all about Z06, featuring a 625hp allnew supercharged engine with an all-new eight speed automatic transmission and for the first time the roof panel is removable for open air driving. Using the same all-aluminum platform as the regular Stingray, this new car is lower, with bigger tires and brakes, more cooling inlets and in initial testing, is the fastest Corvette Chevrolet ever made. The Z06 will be available in

Ford F-150 Any new F-150 is a huge deal for Ford as it is the number one selling truck in Canada for the past 48 years and the best selling vehicle overall. The big news is that the all-new F-150 is now constructed using lighter high-tensile steel in the chassis, and high strength aluminum alloys in the body, mostly the trucks box. This combination contributes to a 318-kilogram reduction in weight, helping to make the truck stronger and much more fuel-efficient.

FORD SUPER DUTY F-250 XLT
Chrysler 200 Some might remember the Chrysler Sebring sedan. That nameplate was retired and rebadged as the Chrysler 200. This all-new Chrysler 200 is light years away from that old platform. In fact, it uses the same Alfa Romeo platform found under the Dodge Dart and impressive Jeep Cherokee. The strong points of this platform are excellent on-road manners with a quiet interior and superb handling. There will be a 2.4L 4-cylinder engine with 184hp or the optional 290hp 3.6L engine found in many other Chrysler products. The Chrysler 200 will have front wheel drive or optional all wheel drive, derived from the same system used in the Jeep Cherokee. This will provide Chrysler with a unique offering as most other manufacturers stick with two-wheel drive. The interior features the Uconnect computer interface system and is covered in soft-touch materials and supportive seats. Look for the all-new Chrysler 200 to arrive in late spring and starts at $22,495.

PONTIAC WAVE UPLEVEL
There will be four engines available from a base 3.5L V6 to a 5.0L V8 and two Ecoboost engines, a 2.7L and 3.5L V6. Ford did not have specific fuel economy numbers but there will be a significant improvement over the existing truck. Other improvements include an improved tailgate stepladder that folds away easier and power locking and folding tailgate. The New 2015 F-150 will be available later this year.
Porsche 911 Targa One car that pulled big crowds was the new Porsche 911 Targa. We all know what a Porsche 911 looks like; they have been modifying the same basic shape for over 50 years. What this new Targa has is a retractable roof system that will stop traffic. At the push of a button the whole rear of the car releases and the centre convertible roof is stored underneath, then the rear section is again attached. The back panel incorporates a wrap around rear window, making a distinctive statement while keeping the overall design of the car intact. Previous Targa models had either a removable centre panel of a glorified, oversized sunroof, this new model is the best of both. Starting at $115,900, all Targa models will come with AWD and will arrive this spring. Mercedes Benz C-Class The C-Class is so important to Mercedes brand in North America that they held the world debut of the C-Class here, plus it is their number one selling car. Arriving later this spring and summer, this new compact sedan is a longer and wider and uses a combination of high-tensile steel and aluminum components to shed 100kg for a 20 percent reduction in fuel economy. An all-new turbocharged 2.0L 4-cylinder is the base engine with 235hp. The optional 328hp 3.0L V6 is the other power plant initially. The highlight is the more dynamic looking exterior and superb interior. The dash is stunning, featuring a touch screen iPod type screen mounted on the back. zack.spencer@drivewaybc. ca

Lots of ‘Ooh-aah what a car’ Detroit—Flocks of international journalists roamed the floors of COBO Hall in downtown Detroit on the occasion of the 25th annual North American International Auto Show. With a plethora of automotive goodness under one roof, it’s hard to narrow down which ones to focus on. After all, there are concepts, production vehicles and much more. And there are a lot of them. To kick things off on my list, let’s start with some concepts. Ah, MINIs. For over a decade, they have been romping the streets and causing people to smile, whether driving them, sitting in them or watching them. At the NAIAS, the masses were introduced to the MINI John Cooper Works Concept. Not a whole heck of a lot of information was released but you can bet your bottom dollar that it’ll be fast. There are large air inlets, 18-inch wheels and the unmistakable MINI silhouette and face. It’s built as much for the road as it is the track. Did I mention it’ll be fast? Until the production vehicle is produced, we will just have to be patient and wait for pricing, specs and all the fun stuff. Kia certainly drew the crowds when it came to their GT4 Stinger Concept. According to Kia, the “GT4 Stinger was conceived by the “gearheads” in Kia’s Irvine, Calif., design studio, birthplace of iconic concept vehicles such as the Track’ster and Cross G.” The rear-wheel drive, 2+2 sports car, had a powerful stage presence. And also packs a healthy dose of 315 horsepower from a
turbocharged, 4-cylinder powerplant. The Korean carmaker mentions that there are no

horses. Included is an allnew direct-injected 1.5-liter DOHC i-VTEC engine producing 130 horsepower and 114 lb.-ft. of torque. That’s an increase of 13 horsepower and 8 lb.-ft. of torque in comparison to the outgoing engine. The VW Golf R is no stranger to Canadians. It has been sold here in the Great White North for the last couple of years.

pending plans to bring this particular car to market, however, Kia has a history of delivering production vehicles that bear a strong resemblance to the concept that preceded them, and the GT4 Stinger provides a possible and highly provocative glimpse into Kia’s future. And if it’s the future we’re after, it looks good. Moving from fantasy to fiction, we have the Honda Fit. It’s a spectacular little car and has been a popular selling vehicle in Canada. And it’s all new for 2015. Up front, the Fit sports a new grille and headlight design. Around back, there are rear reflectors and LED taillights run along the hatch with a chrome tailgate garnish and rear diffuser. Furthermore, Honda keep’s their exclusive Magic Seat, which offer multiple configurable seating positions. Translation, the Fit provides an unrivaled 52.7 cubic feet of cargo space when the second row seats are folded flat. It also gets a bump in

Don’t overlook 4-cylinders Straub from page B7
But they’re kind of like the tooth fairy. You hear about them, but you rarely see them. Why? Because they were sold in limited quantities. Meaning only a few hundred were allocated for Canada. But I’m hoping such is not the case with the upcoming
2015 Golf R. Making its debut at the show, you can liken it to a donut. A donut that is fat free, calorie free and has sprinkles on top. Yes, it’s just that delicious. The all-wheel drive 5-door has plenty of appeal. But with the option of outfitting it with a 6-speed DSG with paddle shifters (it was previously only available
with a 6-speed manual,) it might just reach out to a few more takers. That’s if we can get our hands on them. Oh, and there’s an allotment of 290 horsepower, too. Yum. Speaking of cars with four cylinders and all-wheel drive, the Golf R has some competition lined up in the form of the Subaru WRX
STI. With a 305 horsepower horizontally-opposed turbocharged boxer engine, multi-differential controllable all-wheel-drive system, and a six-speed gearbox, those looking to take shortcuts off the beaten path can do it. And do it in style. alexandra.straub@drivewaybc.ca

CONTRIBUTOR
SANTA FE, N.M.— You have to ask yourself: Why is the current exhibit at the New Mexico Art Museum, in multicultural Santa Fe, attracting not just artists and scholars, but fans of the cartoonist’s art (admirers of Gary Trudeau, Mike Luckovich and Rob Rogers)? Because Santa Fe is the only place in American where Renaissance to Goya: Prints and Drawings from Spain, is on display. Ending a global tour that visited Madrid and Sydney, the show’s last venue is in Santa Fe, where it remains through March 9. And why, you might wonder, did I find a collection of black-andbrown scribbles compelling enough to make a hastily planned trip to Santa Fe to see them before they return to the archives in London’s British Museum? Because the La Fonda Hotel on the Plaza, a museum down to

its bones (and my heart’s own home-away-fromhome), was advertising a killer rate for two in a double room, plus a scrumptious breakfast and tickets to the exhibit. But I would have gone anyway. First, the Renaissance To Goya exhibit is small enough to see all 132 pen-and-ink and chalk drawings and sketches in a morning and still have time to study them in detail. Some are quick and rough; others are “cartoons” (from “carte,” meaning paper), designs drawn for tapestry weavers. Instead of cruising by, as one tends to do in a huge museum, I took my time, giving each one the same attention I pay to the political cartoons on the Los Angeles Times’ opinion pages. Not surprisingly I came away with some clues as to how successful artists plan and complete their master works, those enormous oil paintings that cover entire walls. When you compare
two or three of Francisco Goya’s preliminary sketches for a painting, you can almost see the way he thought. Playing with different layouts, he would try one angle and then another until he found the most effective way to record what he’d seen and felt. It’s what you or I do—more or less—when we take a photograph, zooming in and crossing the street to avoid the ugly truck or telephone pole. Poets do it when they edit first drafts of poems. A look at the first draft of the Dec-
laration of Independence, written by Thomas Jefferson, reveals linedout words and substitute phrasing suggested by John Adams and Benjamin Franklin. Equally intriguing— but in a different way— is the story of the collection itself, much of it assembled by Tomas Harris (also known as Thomas Harris), a British painter and draftsman, and— astonishingly—a MI5 double-agent for Britain during World War II. If it had been me, poking through second-hand

book and print stores near the British Museum, I’d never have thought to search through the dusty stacks of tattered prints and etchings. But Harris, who knew what to look for, would have recognized them immediately. Ever on the hunt, he eventually built the largest collection of its kind. And the MI5 connection gives the story a certain zing. I like to imagine that his underground secret-agent life gave him special access to shady characters and hidden works of art. You think? After he died (in a car accident after the war) his collection went to the British Museum, where it lives in the archives. Though half a dozen artists are represented here, the majority of works are by one of my favourites, painter and print-maker Goya (1746-1828). Living during one of Spain’s most tumultuous eras, he witSee Santa Fe A14

in popular publications, wouldn’t look amiss in tomorrow’s newspaper. Roughly drawn with dark, harsh, quick strokes, they decry the horrors of modern war—denuded landscapes, mutilated corpses and starving peasants. Signaling the end of a long era of classical European art, they foreshadow both Impressionism and Expressionism.
IF YOU GO:
The Renaissance To Goya exhibit remains at the New Mexico Art Museum in Santa Fe through March 9. The museum is open every day except Monday, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; entrance fees are $9 for out-of-state residents and $6 for New Mexico residents. For lodging and dining information, go to www.santafe.org. Or stay where I do, at the historic La Fonda hotel, on the Plaza. Completely renovated from the plumbing to the plaster, the much-loved, art-decorated ground floor and lobby appear unchanged, and the guest rooms look as they did when architect Mary Coulter designed them in the late 1920s. Paintings, murals, sculpture, Pueblo pottery and Spanish colonial influences make sleeping and eating here an experience. The New Mexico Art Museum is a five-minute walk away. La Fonda’s Renaissance To Goya hotel package starts at $139 per night and includes breakfast for two in La Plazuela, La Fonda’s the enclosed courtyard restaurant. McClatchy-Tribune News Service.
