Council debate erupts over election signs RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff
Candidates for Vernon mayor and council will be able to put campaign signs up on public property even though that’s breaking the law. During a heated debate Tuesday, a majority of current council decided not to enforce the sign bylaw unless there are safety and liability complaints. The bylaw doesn’t allow election signs on public right-of-way. “I think it’s crazy,” said Coun. Brian Brian Quiring Quiring of an administration recommendation to enforce the regulations even if a public complaint is not formally received.
BANNISTER HONDA “A Family Business, with Family Values ”
“It’s like Christmas for the bylaw guys — ‘Let’s yank these things down.’ Signs let the community know who is running for election. It’s a waste of staff time and energy policing this.” A similar concern also came from Coun. Catherine Lord. “How much extra money will we spend policing this?” said Lord. Coun. Mary-Jo O’Keefe questioned why the issue of election signs and where they are located was surfacing now. “During the last election, signs were up everywhere,” she said. Mayor Rob Sawatzky defended the staff recommendation by pointing out that a copy of the bylaw and where signs are permitted was given to candidates. “There’s considerable confusion among candidates trying to abide by the rules,” he said, adding that the issue boils down to

fairness. “When they see signs not in compliance, should they break the rules also?” Will Pearce, chief administrative officer, insisted that it’s appropriate for the sign bylaw to be enforced. “By some candidates, we (city) will be seen as favouring some over others and we don’t,” he said if signs are allowed in public right-of-way. The only opposition to not enforcing the election sign bylaw came from Sawatzky and Coun. Juliette Cunningham, who supports the signs only being on private land. “If we don’t enforce the bylaw, it opens things up for games. If you don’t like someone’s face (on a sign), you complain,” said Cunningham. “If you can’t get enough people to put signs on their property, you’re probably in trouble any way (with your campaign).”

New faces seek Armstrong seats roger knox Morning Star Staff
Helen Jackson would consider it a privilege to be involved in helping plan the City of Armstrong’s future. Kerry Bennington puts financial sustainability, public safety and infrastructure at the top of his priorities list. Both residents have declared themselves candidates for a seat on Armstrong council. Jackson Jackson is a retired public school and college librarian, councillor and Interior Health Authority administrative assistant. “I enjoy living in Armstrong, plan on being here for many years to come, and would like to be more involved in helping guide this community forward,” said Jackson, who moved to Armstrong with her husband in 2010. She is a former councillor in the City of Marathon, Ont., and has also served on a number of
health-related boards. “I’d like to ensure growth happens in a balanced way, which meets or exceeds the expectations of the community as a whole. I’m used to working as part of a team whose members often hold differing views, while still making my own voice heard, and I’d like very much to put that previous experience to good use here in Armstrong.” Bennington is a former police offiBennington cer who hopes his track record with the RCMP, the provincial solicitor general’s ministry and the last several years of private management consulting will serve the City of Armstrong well. “I am extremely proud to live in Armstrong and I am looking forward to discussing important issues with citizens in our community, and – hopefully if elected – to build on the tremendous legacy left by our current council,” said Bennington.
A native of White Rock, Bennington was the deputy director of police services with the ministry of solicitor general and spent several years as a private management consultant before becoming a sales associate in February with The Home Depot in Vernon. “My priorities reflect my personal belief in building strong communities through ongoing investment in public services, through transparent and accountable local government and by protecting those who are most vulnerable,” he said. Bennington is a proud member of Branch 35 of the Royal Canadian Legion, the Armstrong Spallumcheen Museum and Art Gallery and the Okanagan Valley Wood Turners Guild. Also running for council in Armstrong are incumbents Paul Britton, Shirley Fowler, Ron (Sully) O’Sullivan and John Trainor, and challengers Steven Drapala, Lance McGregor, Dave McKechnie, Gil Melin, Robert Thibeau and Linda Werner. Mayor Chris Pieper has been returned by acclamation.

Vernon High School Class of 1954 members Harry Yamamoto (from left), Haruko Cant (née Ouchi) and Yosh Saito (née Inouye) gather by their class picture during the class’ recent 60-year reunion at the Vernon Schubert Centre (below). Ranch. “There was constant talk,” said Lorna Thorburn (née French) who, along with Elsie Bailey (née Bydlowski), Molly Boyd (née Rendell), Rita Perry (née Foote) and Joan McKay (née Edwards), helped organize the weekend. “We gave them plenty of things to do,” said Bailey, who grew up on Mara Avenue, across from what is now W.L. Seaton Secondary and who would walk home for lunch. “We gave them lists of different tours and places they may like to see. Those from out-of-town wanted to get reacquainted with Vernon.” Sixty years ago, Vernon was a town of 5,000 with only the one high school, then located in Polson Park. Of a class of 113, 41 members of VHS Class of 1954, along with 25 spouses, returned to their hometown for the reunion, including the likes of Dick Smith and Brian Buick, who travelled from Whitehorse and California, respectively, to be with their classmates.
Thorburn, who bused in from her home off Cosens Bay Road in Coldstream, said one of the most popular topics of the weekend was the traffic. “Even the people who came up from the Lower Mainland commented about Vernon’s traffic,” smiled Thorburn, who met her husband, Herb, at VHS where, together, they would take their lunches and eat by Vernon Creek in the park. They left for places like Ottawa for 47 years before returning home to retire 12 years ago. “Some classmates went to look for our old school (Coldstream Elementary) and were disappointed to learn it had been torn down. It’s a beautiful new school there now, but it’s not our school.” At the Schubert Centre, classmates
had 90 minutes from the time doors opened before dinner was served to get caught up with each other. If they didn’t connect that night, they could visit with a person they didn’t get to talk with the next morning at breakfast at O’Keefe Ranch. Organizers created charts and put up plenty of pictures, including a blown-up version of the class picture taken on the steps in front of the old high school, complete with girls wearing pastel dresses made by their classmates, and the boys in suits and ties. Out of the class of 113, organizers were able to make contact with 98 grads (or their families), and discovered 31 of their classmates are deceased. Bailey, who left Vernon after gradua-
tion to attend university in Vancouver, stayed in the Lower Mainland for 10 years, then returned home with her husband, Ken. She’s been back for 42 years in the same house they purchased upon moving home. Bailey termed the weekend a big success. “The Schubert Centre and O’Keefe Ranch did such a great job and everybody had a wonderful time,” she said. “Things were so noisy in the Schubert Centre with all of the talk and laughter, we couldn’t hear much else going on. We hope to have another reunion in a year or two.” Added Thorburn: “Our class is a pretty healthy lot, I must say. Everybody’s got arthritis, but other than that, everybody is pretty mobile and everybody looked great.”

Social policy framework targeted richard rolke Morning Star Staff
There are growing demands on the provincial government to tackle social issues head-on. Vernon council unanimously decided Tuesday to ask the provincial government to consult with British Columbians as part of developing a social policy framework. “Without a plan, there will be gaping holes or overlaps and redundancies in service,” said Mayor Rob Sawatzky. “This seems as elementary to good government as the law of gravity seems to all of us.” Currently, B.C. does not have a social policy framework although other provinces, including Alberta, do. “We need a solid plan to deal with our more pressing social issues,” said Annette Sharkey, with the local Social Planning Council, during a presentation to city council. “Municipalities don’t have the resourc-

es or mandate to deal with complex social issues. A framework for B.C. will focus resources more effectively to us.” Other communities have already requested that the provincial government develop a social policy framework, including Abbotsford, Burnaby, Nelson, Kamloops, Prince George and Vancouver. “We have to send a message that we support this and hopefully our MLA will support this when he goes to his colleagues,” said Juliette Cunningham, a Vernon councillor, who joined Sawatzky to serve Thanksgiving meals at the Upper Room Mission Monday.
Forum dates set Morning Star Staff
Greater Vernon residents will have a chance to attend two election forums at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre. There will be a forum for Vernon council candidates Oct. 28 at 7 p.m. and for Coldstream candidates Oct. 30 at 7 p.m. “The forums provide an opportunity for candidates to state their platforms, and for the public to ask questions both in written form and open mic,” said Brian van Wensem, with the Performing Arts Centre. There will be no cost for forum participants or audience members, although donations will be accepted for the centre’s children’s theatre fund. Any donations made will be matched by the
Vernon Performing Arts Centre Society and used to purchase children’s theatre tickets that will be distributed to families otherwise unable to attend performances.

“We can see the need in the community because of the cross-section of issues.” Sharkey hopes the provincial government will consider establishing a process to address critical challenges facing residents. “B.C. has one of the worst levels of child poverty (in Canada),” she said. “We shouldn’t because we’re a wealthy province. There’s a disconnect.” The primary push for a social policy framework is coming from Board Voice, a non-profit agency. “We believe that a principled, welldeveloped social policy framework that builds common understanding, is pragmatic in delivery and is measured by outcomes can streamline delivery of critical services, improve the results for those who need it most and guide decision making into the future,” states Board Voice in a letter to city council.

ain in the feet is one of the most debilitating injuries we can be plagued with; it is felt in the arch of the foot (Plantar Fasciitis), the heel (Plantar Fasciitis or heel spur) or at the back of the ankle (Achilles Tendonitis). Unfortunately, we continuously use our feet, which makes healing from related injuries very difficult.
success, it gives up and healing stops. Shockwave Therapy breaks up scar tissue, restoring the function of the muscle and promoting new blood vessel growth, stimulating faster healing. In fact, in a double blind study published in Journal of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society, 90%of patients suffering from heel and arch pain showed significant improvements with Shockwave. Furthermore, Shockwave Therapy (developed to break up kidney stones) has success rates of between 77%-91% in the treatment of other soft tissue conditions. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.
DR. RYAN HARRIS Glenmore Chiropractic
Plantar Fasciitis is an overuse injury affecting the fibrous tissue that forms the arch. Heel spurs can form when the fascia tears at the heel attachment and results in pain in the center of the heel. Achilles Tendonitis is irritation of the Achilles where the calf muscle meets the heel and can result in pain in the calf, the Achilles, or the back of the heel. The inflammation from overuse leads to pain as well as deposits of scar tissue, further inflaming the area each time the Achilles or plantar fascia are used. After the body has tried for weeks or months to heal the injury with no

The vote that almost wasn’t
W
hat a difference three years can make. In 2011, there was no shortage of people contesting the available seats in Lumby, Spallumcheen and Coldstream. Fast forward to the close of nominations at 4 p.m. last Friday, Lumby council was acclaimed lock, stock and barrel and it was only at the last minute that a similar scenario was avoided in the other two communities. There are a few scenarios at work. “It says we’re doing a pretty good job. I hope Richard Rolke it’s not because people are not interested in their town,” said Kevin Acton, Lumby’s mayor. There are very likely some residents in the village who are pleased with the direction taken by Acton and council (all are returning except a retiring Jo Anne Fisher whose seat has gone to newcomer Julie Pilon). But another critical factor is there wasn’t a hot button issue this year, whereas the 2011 election was dominated by plans for a prison, which divided friends, neighbours and families. As a result of the acrimony, there were three candidates for mayor and seven individuals running for the four councillor seats. It should also be mentioned that Lumby administration was left entertaining media questions about what would happen if there weren’t sufficient nominations to fill the four council seats because by about 2 p.m. Friday, Pilon still hadn’t filed for the final spot. Just to the west on Highway 6, Jim Garlick has been acclaimed to a third term as the district’s mayor while he had competition in 2011. There were eight people vying for the six councillor positions then, but until late last Thursday, it was increasingly looking like there would be no election. That changed when
BEyond thE hEAdlinES
incumbent Richard Enns filed, becoming the seventh candidate. I was somewhat surprised by the lack of interest in Coldstream given a couple of factors. First, I suspected that a majority of current council approving zoning for a pellet plant next to Lavington Elementary would galvanize those critical of the facility and they would offer an electoral alternative. I also wondered if the Greater Vernon Governance Society’s efforts to encourage amalgamation with Vernon would draw like-minded Coldstream residents out of the woodwork. But on both fronts, strong opposition to current council`s vision has not materialized. Much like Lumby, Spallumcheen, officials were also wondering if they would actually have enough people to fill the six council seats. But just before deadline Friday, Linda Griffin walked into the township office and handed in her nomination papers - triggering a full-scale election. Elsewhere in the region, the call for amalgamation sustained another setback with Area B director Bob Fleming and Area C director Mike Macnabb being acclaimed to four-year terms. It`s difficult to know if residents are satisfied with the job being done by the BX boys or if they just aren’t willing to get politically active themselves now that terms are four years long. But while Lumby voters can stay at home Nov. 15 and the Spallumcheen and Coldstream elections are rather anti-climactic, there are other jurisdictions to keep a close eye on. Of course the big enchilada is Vernon, where five candidates will duke it out for the mayor’s chair and 14 want six council jobs. Other elections to watch are Howie Cyr and Greg McCune going head-to-head for Enderby mayor, and in Armstrong where there are a 12 people running for councillor. Election time is here. Keep yourself informed, get to know your candidates and get out and vote.
Social issues are broad-based and impact everyone in the North Okanagan, whether it’s a family searching for child care, a victim of violence seeking assistance, seniors needing support or working individuals trying to find affordable housing. Increasingly, municipalities and community agencies are turned to by those in need, but the reality is that social issues fall under the jurisdiction of the provincial government. Currently, B.C. does not have a social policy framework although other provinces, including Alberta, do. “We need a solid plan to deal with our more pressing social issues,” said Annette Sharkey, with the local Social Planning Council of the North Okanagan. “Municipalities don’t have the resources or mandate to deal with complex social issues. A framework for B.C. will focus resources more effectively to us.” Board Voice, a non-profit agency, is leading a campaign to have a social policy framework in B.C. “We believe that a principled, well-developed social policy framework that builds common understanding, is pragmatic in delivery and is measured by outcomes can streamline delivery of critical services, improve the results for those who need it most and guide decision making into the future,” it states. And consider what happens if social issues aren’t addressed. Individuals feel isolated, homelessness can climb, health care costs soar and crime can escalate. “Without a plan, there will be gaping holes or overlaps and redundancies in service,” said Rob Sawatzky, Vernon’s mayor. Municipalities across the province are calling on the government to take action. Let’s hope the officials in Victoria are listening.

Group concerned about Kal park
he Friends of Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park (FKLPP) is an organization founded to preserve the environmental integrity of Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park in perpetuity for the benefit of the general public. Our mandate is to protect the park’s rare and endangered grassland, which is home to many protected and endangered species. That was the reason the park was founded in the 1970s. That is the park's history and its legacy. FKLPP now has about 2,000 signatures from the public who use the park, telling the Ministry of Transportation (MoT) not to remove land from the park, which would split the park in two. MoT is asking for a 30-metre wide right-of-way along Cosens Bay Road. That would be about 15 hectares taken out of our park. We are not interested in rehashing a 20-year-old court case. Yes, the justice at the time deemed it a public road, but it still belongs to B.C. Parks. This statement comes from B.C. Parks itself. Yes, MoT maintains the road, but they do not own it. We have nothing against road improve-
cosens bay road The amount of misinformation being put out in the media with regards to Cosens Bay Road is astounding. The group opposed to road improvements doesn't seem to know the facts. They seem to think that property owners in the area are not interested in preserving the beauty of the park and lake. This couldn't be farther from the truth. The reason they bought the property was because of the beauty of the area. When they bought their properties, there was a road to access their property. The fact is, the road was there long before the park was established. The road has been there since the late 1800s. The government put funds into construction over the last century. The road is already splitting the park. This is not going to change as the courts have ruled that the road has a legal right-ofway. It isn't going anywhere. I'm not sure how more rattlesnakes will be killed by the more than 200 cars a day that use the road if the road is wide enough to allow two opposing cars to pass each other on a blind corner and allow emergency vehicles to enter the park year around
ments being done for safety reasons, but they can be done within a few months via a park use permit. This still allows B.C. Parks to maintain ownership of the park. MoT has asked for a park boundary adjustment. This process, if it was successful, will take at least two years and likely much more, as it must go to the minister, the cabinet and then the Legislature. That’s a very slow way to address safety issues. At the Aug. 27 open house, MoT was for the safety of all park users? The drainage ditches on either side of the road will not kill rattlesnakes. They will allow the Ministry of Transportation to lower its maintenance costs on the road. This will save taxpayers' money. The fact is, the property owners pay property taxes and have for decades. These property taxes are paid with little or no money coming back for roads, sewer, water, garbage collection that every other property owner gets for their taxes. There have been numerous vehicles that went off the road this summer alone. What will happen if a car goes off the road and catches on fire from its damages? Won't we all wish we had made the road safe before the park burned to the ground? Letters, such as the one Sept. 19 by Rose Harryman, refer to a "small group of cottage owners," the road is already "well maintained," and upgrading the road is solely for the convenience of the "few" cottage owners. Guess what, these about 100 property owners pay taxes too, and have not seen any sort of improvements for the taxes they pay. Another letter, Sept. 24 by Hans Joerg Mueller, writes about safety, referring to winter conditions. How about the everyday summer conditions?
directly queried many times about utilities (e.g. hydro line) being asked for in the proposed road right of way. They answered that they only wanted to improve the road for maintenance and safety purposes. Since then the stage one proposal by MoT, written in October 2013, has been made public. It can be read on the websites of B.C. Parks, MoT and FKLPP. In that proposal it is stated, in the first paragraph, second sentence, ''to accomHe complains of boat traffic? Guess what, it's a lake. The road issue and lake traffic are separate issues. The park has created more traffic on the road with the parking lot they put in by Cougar Canyon. An article was written in The Morning Star after the open house was held. It was written that the properties were boat access only and there shouldn't even be a road. This is completely wrong. The properties, years ago, were locked out of their access with a gate put in place on the road that has been there for more than a 100 years because a few people lobbied the socialist government. The road has always been there. Eventually, when governments changed, the gate was taken down. The court later ruled the government was wrong to close the road and it must be a maintained public road. Basically, the local regional district happily collects residents' taxes and yet does nothing in return. Coldstream likes to comment about the issue but has no jurisdiction over the area. It seems to me that taxpayers in Coldstream should not be paying a bureaucrat to spend their time publishing views
modate improvements to the road as well as provision for utilities.'' B.C. Parks has no need for utilities and MoT doesn’t need them. So who is asking? In 2003, the Regional District of the North Okanagan (RDNO) helped question cabin owners about the issues and found "the majority of the cabin owners wish to maintain the status quo." Those 63 cabin owners are zoned seasonal use only. A handful of estate homes inside the gated Kalamalka Park Estates, at the far end of Cosens Bay Road, are used yearround. They are zoned commercial recreation. Lots are for sale here. If the real issue is road safety and maintenance, MoT can address this quickly and get the work done in months. A 30-metre right-of-way removed from the park is not needed. Please sign our petition to stop MoT from removing land from our public park. Go to www.kalamalkapark.ca. Also write to your local and provincial elected officials. Valerie buchanan, President Friends of Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park about an issue that is outside their jurisdiction. beth and Warren campbell

Meals filling a growing need Morning Star Staff
A program that has been serving a community need for over a year now is growing by leaps and bounds. When the Meals on Wheels program first started delivering out of the Schubert Centre to seniors in August 2013, there were 18 people registered in four zones in the Vernon area. “We were delivering 21 meals on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays,” said Deanna Toporchak, co-ordinator. There are now — Toporchak more than 65 people registered, in six different zones, with some clients receiving meals to cover every day of the week. “This program has had a huge increase since starting just over a year ago and has proved to be very successful and extremely needed in the local community.” Along with a fantastic group of volunteers, who take turns delivering, others are pitching in to serve. From service organizations, such as the Knights of Columbus and the St. James Catholic Women’s League, to a local lawyers’ office, Kidston and Co., have volunteered to help deliver. There are even two former clients who are now delivering meals. “There is an old saying that goes something like this, ‘What goes around, comes around’ and this is proving true with this program,” said Toporchak. “The response from the community has been overwhelming with everyone recognizing the need for this program.”

Housing construction climbed in Vernon during September. There were 26 housing starts compared to 13 during the same month in 2013. Of the 26 starts, 20 were single-detached units and there were six multiple units. “This boost in housing starts has pushed yearto-date figures over year-earlier levels,” said Sarena Teakles, a senior market analyst with the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation. Year-to-date, there have been 158 starts in Vernon. That is up from 142 during the same nine months of 2013.

Woodlot gets approval Morning Star Staff
The provincial government has tendered a new woodlot near Ashton Creek. The Ministry of Forests is accepting bids from prospective operators looking to manage the 1,189-hectare woodlot, which includes two separate blocks and a total allowable annual cut of 4,250 cubic metres.
“This new woodlot will help keep jobs in the Okanagan and give local communities a greater say in how local forest resources are managed,” said Greg Kyllo, Shuswap MLA. The deadline for bids on the woodlot is Dec. 3. Woodlots are small, area-based tenures that combine private land with Crown land.

As boating season comes to an end, the Vernon Yacht Club is offering an important service to the public. The club is opening its sanitary pump-out station to the boating public this week, until Sunday. “It’s that time of year when boaters look at taking their boats out of the water and getting them ready for the long winter nights,” said Chris Grotterod, with the club. The pump-out will be shut down for the season Sunday, therefore anyone interested in accessing it can contact the Vernon Yacht Club at 250-545-5518. The public is also invited to come check out the spectacle on Crane Day Nov. 8.
“Bring the family down to the Vernon Yacht Club on Saturday, Nov. 8 and watch a very big crane lift sailboats and motorboats out of the water for the winter,” said Grotterod, adding that the public is invited to come and watch the spectacle from inside the clubhouse or from the raised deck. Crane Day runs from 8 a.m. to noon. A hot breakfast sandwich with a hot chocolate or coffee will be available for purchase from 9 a.m. The Vernon Yacht Club is located at 7919 Okanagan Landing Rd., just past Paddlewheel Park.

The very first Winemakers’ Dinner was a successful sell out event, raising $5,440 for United Way. “We had high hopes of having 100 attendees for our first Winemakers’ Dinner
and that was exceeded,” said Linda Yule of United Way. “The winemakers all have interesting and entertaining stories about their wineries, the Vernon Lodge prepared an amazing six courses to pair
with the six wines and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Much thanks to our sponsors, the wine educator, Gerrit Van Staalduinen, the winemakers and everyone who took a chance on a brand new event.”
Barbecue fires up for Kindale Morning Star Staff
A Vernon establishment is grilling up a chance to help a North Okanagan organization. Match Eatery and Public House at Vernon’s Lake City Casino in Vernon invites everyone to their second annual charity barbecue for the Kindale Developmental Association on Sunday from noon to 3 p.m. For a $10 donation, participants will receive a delicious barbecue burger lunch courtesy of the culinary team at Match, as well as cake, $10 in free play (for adults only) and a chance to win a deluxe gift basket. Live entertainment will graciously be provided again this year by the Shawn Lightfoot Band. “Vernon Lake City Casino is very proud to be able to help this organization in such a positive way,” said Clay Riley, Lake City Casinos’ general manager. “Everyone is welcome, and kids
under 12 eat free. Let’s all show our support.” For more than 53 years, Kindale has been thriving and adapting to the changing needs and desires of individuals with developmental disabilities. “We are excited that Lake City Casino has chosen Kindale Developmental Association as the beneficiary of their charity barbecue event,” said Cindy Masters, Kindale development officer. “Lake City Casino’s generous support enables us to enrich our services, particularly in the area of employment training and support for individuals with disabilities who have a strong desire for a real job for real pay. “I’d like to invite the Kindale family and everyone in the community of all ages to join us.” Last year’s barbecue raised more than $9,500.

Oktoberfest raises Habitat funds Morning Star Staff
Celebrating the arrival of October will help provide muchneeded housing for local residents. Oktoberfest will be held at Predator Ridge Resort at 5:30 p.m. Oct. 22 and it will raise funds for Vernon’s Habitat for Humanity. “Habitat is very close to being able to purchase a lot and this Oktoberfest event will help put us over the top for adequate funds,” said Glory Westwell, with Habitat. “Remember, this is a hand up, not a hand out. Partner families contribute sweat equity in lieu of a down payment.” Oktoberfest tickets are available at www.VernonHabitat.com for $50 each. The ticket price includes dinner, a beer glass compliments of Tree Brewery and the first two beers. Steel Wound will provide entertainment, and there will be a 50/50 draw, games and a grand prize.
“We welcome all from near and far, but you must be 19 plus,” said Glory. Diana Raffan, from Work ‘n Play and Diana’s Monogramming, is supplying monogrammed beer mugs and each purchase of a mug results in unlimited beverages for the holder. Of course, should anyone choose not to drive after celebrating, MJO Tours has volunteered a tour buses and a driver to safely transport people home. Driving Hands will also be servicing Predator. Support for Oktoberfest has come from Helene Scott, Predator’s food and beverage supervisor, and Rod Cochrane, the resort’s general manager. “We cannot begin to thank all our sponsors and volunteers,” said Westwell. “We’re looking for a robust turnout and anticipate selling out all 150 tickets. I can hardly wait to see who shows up.”

his surplus cattle from his massive herds on the Gang Ranch and set about purchasing all the cattle he could from Cariboo and Chilcotin ranchers. Prices for cattle began to move upwards to more than $20 a head and the market for 1882 looked even more promising as railway construction reached its peak. As the 1882 construction season approached, Greaves saw the potential for controlling the market. In December 1881, he contacted Benjamin Van Volkenburgh, who operated the B.C. Meat Market in Victoria and who had purchased cattle from the Harpers since 1880. Greaves convinced Van Volkenburgh that, for $80,000, he could purchase enough cattle to control the cattle market in B.C. and guarantee obtaining the contract to supply beef
to the CPR work crews for the next several years. Van Volkenburgh enlisted the support of some of the more wealthy British Columbians, Joseph Pemberton, William Curtis Ward, of the Bank of B.C., Charles W.R. Thomson, of the Victoria Gas Company, and Judge Peter O’Reilly. The new syndicate, thus formed, agreed to begin quietly purchasing all available cattle through the Thompson and Okanagan districts during the winter of 1881–82. Greaves, who was responsible for buying cattle, purchased 2200 head in the Nicola Valley early in the new year at $20 to $23 per head. The cattle were purchased and held on the seller’s ranches until they would be needed. Then Greaves head-
ed for the Okanagan Valley where his helper, Brock McQueen, a former overlander, had already bought 400 head at Okanagan Mission (later Kelowna). Greaves wrote to his partners of his

Musician rings in 25-year career with albums/tour KRiSti PAttOn Black Press
At eight years old Steve Bell honed his skills as a musician, performing with some of Canada’s most notorious felons. It happened while his father served as a chaplain at federal penitentiaries in Drumheller, Alta. and Stony Mountain, Man. “I remember the first time the door to the chapel opened up and the inmates filed in. I was so disappointed how human they looked,” said Bell. “Jamming with them probably shaped my view of humanity more than anything else.” Bell credits part of his success in the music industry –one that has led to a 25-year solo career– to those Saturday afternoon jam sessions. Those experiences helped him develop messages of love, hope and faith in his songs, stories and writings. “These guys were well-worn but very human. They had spouses, children, and for whatever reason, got caught up in something. I learned that no matter what people are people and each one has a gift. We are all wounded in some way or another and the interactions I had brought this wide scope of humanity into my vision,” said Bell, who is about to bring his own gifts to Vernon Alliance Church Sunday. Bell has gone on to release 18 albums and earn several accolades and awards includ-

Manitoba recording artist Steve Bell brings his 31-date tour, on the release of his new four-album project Pilgrimage, to Vernon Alliance Church Sunday. ing two Junos and three Western Canadian Music Awards. His recording career began at 13 with his family’s gospel band, The Alf Bell Family Singers. After graduating from high school, Bell joined several bands, playing music ranging from folk to jazz-rock and country. He eventually left the Manitoba folk trio Elias,
Schritt & Bell, which toured with the Pointer Sisters, and formed the Winnipeg-based independent record label Signpost Music and released his first solo album. To celebrate 25 years behind a microphone, Bell has just released the four-album package, Pilgrimage, funded partially through a Kickstarter campaign. It comes with an
accompanying keepsake book. On top of this, he’s the focus of a new feature-length documentary that shines the light on the ups and downs of his career, and tells the story of an impressive musical journey that has spanned a lifetime, and inspired countless lives. Bell’s box set includes 12 new songs (on the album Pilgrimage), as well as songs selected by friends and fans that have been re-recorded with just vocals and guitar (Unadorned), songs recorded by his friends (Good Company), and 17 previously released songs remixed as instrumental versions (Landscapes). “Each record is almost like a photo album, you listen to it and see what happened in your life at that time and it can be definitive of who you are at that point,” said Bell. “I’m at a shift in my life of looking backwards as much as I am looking forwards. I’m very reflective and put value on the things I have done while still adjusting my course into the second-half of my life and music can be very reflective in doing that.” Bell says he is most appreciative of the contributions his musical friends have made on the album, Good Company. One of those songs includes Comfort My People, supplied by Jon Buller, himself a Juno nominated artist and current pastor of worship arts at Vernon Alliance Church.

Coogan, Brydon take another trip
For The Morning Star
IFC FIlms
British comedian Rob Brydon and actor Steve Coogan are back with their hilarious banter and celebrity impressions as they take in culinary delights in The Trip to Italy.
Now that fall is here, moviegoers have a chance to think of warmer places with exotic scenery and great food when attending the Vernon Film Society’s next offering at the Towne Cinema Monday. The Trip to Italy is a follow up to the largely improvised The Trip, starring comedians Steve Coogan (Philomena) and Rob Brydon, which saw the pair wandering around Northern England eating and talking and impersonating many of their favourite movie
stars. This time, the witty and incisive follow-up shows the two retracing the steps of the romantic poets Byron and Shelley along the Amalfi coast, and to Pompeii and Rome. They enjoy mouth watering meals in gorgeous settings while riffing on such subjects as varied as Batman’s vocal register, the artistic merits of Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill and, of course, the virtue of sequels. Sophie Gilbert of The Atlantic states, “The movie
exceeds even the first movie when it comes to sheer beauty, whether it’s the pair careening around steep Italian cliff roads in a tiny Mini Cooper or an extended shot of a plate of hand-made spaghetti that virtually wafts the scent of garlic and Parmesan into the theatre.” The Trip to Italy screens Monday at 5:15 and 7:45 p.m. at the Towne Cinema. All tickets are $7 available at the theatre and the Bean Scene one week ahead or at the door (cash only).
Art show returns to Paddlewheel Park Morning Star Staff
The Okanagan Artists of Canada (OAC) hosts its second annual Art at Paddlewheel Park exhibition. The one-day only show and sale takes place Sunday at the historic Paddlewheel Park Hall overlooking Okanagan Lake. The show features fine art by local artists who are showcasing original paintings in a variety of mediums and subject matter. In addition to larger pieces and as in last year’s show, the OAC is again offering a selection of smaller paintings priced under $100. “The Okanagan Landing Community Association has been very active in encouraging the use of Paddlewheel Park Hall as a recreational, cultural, and historical facility,” said Marg Fox, with the Okanagan Artists of Canada. “Last year’s OAC art show was one of its first-ever ventures into the artistic realm.
“The OAC is proud to continue its partnership with the Okanagan Landing Community Association, a partnership that promotes both Paddlewheel Park Hall and the artwork of the OAC.” A number of OAC artists currently have their work displayed in various business store fronts. Businesses include Discovery Shoes, Interior Gift Gallery, Vernon Shoes, Terra Incognita Imports, Vernon Teach and Learn, Cento Wear, Olive Us, Welk Mart, Hagemann Jewellers, Nadine’s Fine Art and Frames, Betty Lou Boutique, The Starting Block, Faith and Company, Brenda Hala’s Photography, Marlin Travel and Fox & Sons Plumbing and Heating. Sunday’s showcase of art at the picturesque Paddlewheel Park Hall runs from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Admission is free with refreshments available. To view the work of OAC members, visit www.okanaganartistsofcanada.ca.

You will be thoroughly entertained by his sense of humour and story-telling, inspirited by his musicianship and songwriting and touched by his spirit,” said Buller. Bell is currently on a 31-date tour across Canada, and performs at Vernon Alliance Church Sunday at 7 p.m. Admission is $15. –With files from Kristin Froneman

Cycling around Coldstream Moira Mccoll Special to The Morning Star
Our favourite cycling days are ones with warm sunny weather and great scenery. We love to take time to explore interesting sites and visit inviting cafes and eateries. Sure the route could be done in one sweaty hour, but we prefer to savour the experience, taking two or three hours. And there is no place better than the North Okanagan for such indulgent and interesting cycling! On a cloudless Wednesday morning we pedal east on Okanagan Landing Road and cross Highway 97. Toddlers are squealing with delight in the playground as we pass through Polson Park, getting an early start on what promises to be another hot fall day. We continue through the south end of the park along the boardwalk over a sluggish Vernon Creek and pop out onto 14th Avenue and then onto Kalamalka Road, passing by a quiet Kal beach. Taking Kalavista Drive we pass some palatial lakefront homes and turn onto Kirkland Drive to discover a little public beach and playground empty except for some ducks. Continuing up Postill Drive we hook onto Kidston Road and

The hot sun lures us to the beach, which is empty and quiet. We then turn down Coldstream Creek Road and peer into a tangle of bushes at the end of the road. The sign, “Bishop Wild Bird Sanctuary,” is partially hidden and advises us to call ahead, but we meet Aaron Deans, the caretaker, and he assures us the public is welcome. We sign the guest book, take a pamphlet and begin a self-guided tour. The sanctuary was established by Lydia Bishop, an old time Coldstream resident “for the benefit of wild creatures and
the entertainment and education of small groups.” The garden is full of native plants and alive with the jabber of birds and flutter of butterflies. After the solitude of the garden, we mount our bikes and climb up Coldstream Road through orchards of apples and pears, then coast down to cross the Coldstream Creek and turn north to link into Kalamalka Road. We soon stop at Friesen’s Countrytyme Gardens, part orchard and part bakery/restaurant. We tuck into bowls of Russian borscht and fat cheese scones, relaxing on the shaded patio before heading west on Kalamalka Road. At Aberdeen Road we steer
right, stopping just before the rail crossing at Bob Kingsmill Pottery Studio. Here beside a babbling creek and beds bursting with flowers is a gallery adorned with masks, wall murals and whimsical but functional pottery. Bob will greet you warmly (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) when he is not at his gallery on Granville Island in Vancouver, but it’s best to phone ahead to avoid disappointment (250-549-4615). We continue up Aberdeen, turn left onto Middleton Drive and right on Sarsons Road which connects with Middleton Way. A short cruise down 11th Avenue returns us to Kalamalka Road and we retrace our tracks back through Polson Park and home via Okanagan Avenue. After our leisurely 30 km, three-hour outing we return home refreshed, well-fed and inspired by the North Okanagan’s natural beauty and the pottery of an outstanding local artist. Moira McColl is a freelance writer and cycling enthusiast in Vernon. This is the third in her six-part Urban Wanderer series on cycling in the area, with the hope that it will encourage locals and visitors alike to explore the North Okanagan on two wheels.
Horseradish thrives here
y the time you read this, Thanksgiving will have gone by. Hope you had a good one. I am grateful for my health, my family and friends and all the good things in my life. The fantastic weather we had for the last few weeks is also on top of my list. I am still cleaning the garden but a lot of plants are still blooming and I will get to them only after the frost. A friend gave me some geraniums and they are so beautiful that I had to transplant them in pots and I will try to Jocelyne Sewell overwinter them. I removed most of the flowers and cut them off by about 1/3. This should help them survive the shock. I watered them very well and they are in the greenhouse for a few days until I spray all my plants with Safer Insecticidal Soap so I don’t bring bugs inside. I will have to harvest my many horseradish plants this year and I found the following on the Organic Gardening website, by Barbara Wilde. Horseradish is a rugged, cold-hardy

(to USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 3) perennial that grows best where there’s enough of a winter to force the plants into dormancy. You can choose from two widely available types of horseradish: common horseradish, which has broad, crinkled leaves, and Bohemian, which has narrower, smooth leaves and better disease resistance, though disease is very rarely a problem for home gardeners. Horseradish thrives in full sun but tolerates light shade. As for soil, horseradish can take almost anything but consistently waterlogged conditions. Site your horseradish in an out-of-the way spot, because you won’t want to move this perennial once it is planted. Grow horseradish from plants or root cuttings set out in spring or fall. Cut off the top third to half of the root to use in the kitchen, saving the bottom part to plant. Loosen the soil to 12 inches deep (30 cm) and add a shovelful of compost. Plant the root cutting at a 45-degree angle, with the top of the cutting two inches (five cm) below the soil line. Be sure not to plant the cutting upside down. If you love horseradish so much that you need more than one plant, space them 30 inches (76 cm) apart. Horseradish needs little or no atten-
tion in order to thrive. To keep the plant from looking ratty, however, water it once a week during dry spells and use a couple of inches of mulch around the plant to help conserve moisture. You can enjoy your first horseradish harvest one year after planting. Carefully dig away the soil from around the main root, taking care to free up the side roots and remove them at the same time. For the best yields, Oregon State University recommends harvesting after frost kills the foliage. Scrub the main root under running water, and dry well. If enclosed in a perforated plastic bag, horseradish root will keep in the vegetable bin of your refrigerator for three months or even longer. The most common issue gardeners face with horseradish is not how to grow it but how to keep it from growing where they don’t want it. To control its spread, remove the entire root, including its branches, when harvesting; then replant only the number of roots you desire as plants for the following season. Whatever you do, don’t till up ground containing horseradish root or place roots in your compost pile, because you risk spreading the plant all over the garden. For more information: 250-558-4556.

Sixty years ago my father died in the grasslands, and I have left him there without a voice, absent from my life. But now I am restless. These last few years the whispers of both the ghosts of his past life and my long dead childhood have beckoned me to return to this place and resurrect them, to bear witness to their stories, and let them finally rest. The stories await my arrival, stored in the mind and the heart of my Aunt Rosemary, my father’s only living sibling. Rosemary is the one I need to visit because she is the portal to the past, the keeper of our collective history and our secrets, the ones I long to hear. My father died at 26, before his life had started. His death was sudden and tragic, an event that brought devastation. I was two years old, my mother Second Location! NORTH OKANAGAN VALLEY

heart and soul. Our genetic make-up and destiny chart give us indication of our inborn strengths and weaknesses, our outward appearance will also reflect on that in a physical sense. If we know of potential challenges in life based on our facial features, we can change ourselves from the inside out, and also prepare our own
course of action in life accordingly. In our daily life, we encounter people from all walks of life, who can be our potential friends or foes. If we can decipher the meaning of every single feature on a person’s face, we can grasp the essence of the person within a few heartbeats, whether he/she is sincere, trustworthy, loyal, compassionate, dependable or sound of judgement. Knowing how to read a face is an essential tool in our arsenal of skills on our daily life venture, the adage that “to be forewarned is to be forearmed” holds true. Know thyself but not to harm others. Please join me in a four-day Traditional Chinese Face Reading study. The course consists of both theory and practice, and will give you a sound foundation of the technique. The course runs Nov. 9 to 12 from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at Sparkling Hill Wellness Resort.

to have a daughter. Slowly, over two days, one story connects to the next and forms a skeleton of my father’s life. The stories allow me a glimpse of my father but it is the rawness and depth of his sister’s emotion in the telling; hushed grief, tears, happiness, exuberant joy, laughter and love that puts flesh on the bone of a man previously invisible to me. Through her my father is given a voice and he appears to me animated, alive, a ghost no longer but a man that I would have loved to know. In sharing her memories Rosemary gives me the greatest gift one person can give to another. In the autumn of my life and the winter of hers she gives me back my father. To know that I was well loved, wanted and welcome gives me a certain peace and in turn, the opportunity to reclaim a missing part of my childhood and a chance to put both of our ghosts to rest.

The dining room includes an optional hutch, flanked by windows, that will increase serving and storage space, and is divided from the kitchen by a raised eating bar and worktop. A doorway from the kitchen/dining area opens onto a covered porch at the back, making outdoor grilling and meals a breeze. The window over the kitchen’s double sink will let in lots of natural light and an efficient L-shaped counter configuration will save steps for the cook. A spacious pantry offers extra storage. On the other side of the home, the master suite overlooks the back garden for privacy, and includes an ensuite with a double sink and a soaker tub with its own window, as well as a shower stall. A roomy walk-in closet completes the lay-out.

The Access and AgeFriendly Committee in Lake Country has helped the municipality provide leadership in improving accessibility. The role of the AAFC is to advise council on issues pertaining to enhancing access to district services for people of all ages and abilities. The committee acts as a resource in identifying and suggesting solutions to gaps and barriers that impede full participation in all aspects of life in the community.

“The committee has made various recommendations to council on ways that municipal facilities and infrastructure could be improved to increase accessibility,” said Greg Buchholz, director of infrastructure services and staff liaison to the AAFC. “Recommendations are either considered within the annual budget process, or where immediate cost-effective solutions can be implemented, action is taken as soon as staff time and resources can be allocated to the item or issue.” In one case, the committee took a few photos of sidewalk concerns and provided them to the engineering director. Before the photos could even be included on a council meeting agenda, the engineering staff fixed some of the deficiencies. “It really highlighted to me the value of participating on a volunteer committee. Sometimes recommendations can’t be acted on immediately and that can be frustrating to someone who is volunteering time and energy to make their community better,” said Marie Molloy, AAFC chairperson. “But I’ve been impressed with what has been accomplished by this small group of volunteers in conjunction with council and municipal staff within a reasonable timeframe and with public resources to benefit of everyone in the community.”

Students help family Morning Star Staff
A team of 15 Okanagan College trades students put their skills to good use for a worthy cause this summer. The students, who took the residential construction foundation program in Armstrong from February to August, were digging holes and laying backfill at a project house when it was delayed due to weather conditions. Residential construction instructor Les Shuert needed to find an alternative project to fill the gap. When he was telling John Aarestad, building supply manager at Shepherd’s Home Hardware, about his problem, Aarestad suggested the students try out their new skills building two eight-foot-by-10-foot foot garden sheds and the store would donate the materials. As the students began building the sheds, tragedy struck Okanagan College carpentry instructor Gerry Leverrier, when his four-year-old granddaughter Megan was diagnosed with a rare liver disease and sent to the Hospital for Sick Kids in Toronto for treatment. Megan lives in Salmon Arm with her dad, Gerry’s son Jamie, who is an RCMP corporal with the Salmon Arm detachment, her mom Michelle, and her younger brother Gavin. Shuert and his colleague, Okanagan College tool room attendant Brian Thomas, jumped on the opportunity to help the young family and asked Aarestad if they could donate the sheds to an auction that the RCMP was holding to help the Leverrier’s with expenses related to the family’s extended stay in Toronto. He agreed and together the sheds were sold for nearly $1,000 at the auction in July. “Building the sheds gave the students an oppor-

tunity to do things they wouldn’t otherwise have had the chance to do, such as affixing roofing material, hanging doors and building rafters, which really helped develop their on-the-job skills,” said Shuert. “While it’s hard to beat the pride you feel from seeing a finished project, knowing it was helping a family going through a really difficult time made it even that much more rewarding for the students.” Okanagan College is currently accepting applications for the next intake of its 30-week residential construction program in Salmon Arm, which starts in February.

Vipers gear up for first-place Vees KEVIN MITCHELL Sports Editor
They’ve won three straight and sit fifth overall in the 16-team B.C. Hockey League. The Vernon Vipers, however, are not getting any all-star votes from their coaching staff just yet. Head coach Mark Ferner and his staff skated the Vipers like it was spring camp on Thanksgiving Monday. Ferner was headed to Excel Fitness Tuesday morning to ensure Rhonda Catt was pushing his players to the max. “We’re still working on things and our conditioning is the biggest,” said Ferner. “We want to have a strong work ethic, we want to be aggressive on the puck, we want to win races to the puck and we want to be tough to play against. If you aren’t in great condition, you can’t do any of those things.” The Vipers (5-3-0-1) host the league-leading Penticton Vees (8-1) Friday at 7 p.m. and then visit the West Kelowna Warriors (5-4) Saturday night. Vernon is alone in second place in the Interior Division. Ferner watched Penticton pick apart West Kelowna online and says they are solid defensively and have some dynamic rookies. “We’ll be making sure our compete level is there for the weekend. There’s too much swinging away from the puck for my liking. Guys are sniffing offensively and they think if they get a point, it makes them a good hockey player. I told them after Friday’s game that winning is like deodorant; it just covers up the stink.” The Vipers are last in the BCHL in powerplays with one road snipe in 44 chances. “We have a shooting mentality. They have three or four options and they can roll into any one of them,” said Ferner. “We may have to give some other kids a chance on the powerplay.” Texan Thomas Aldworth converted a breakaway 48 seconds into overtime as the Vipers clipped the Chilliwack Chiefs 5-4 Saturday night at Kal Tire Place. Aldworth stripped defenceman Brandon Tkachuk of a bouncing puck at the Viper blueline and beat Chief net detective Aidan Pelino top shelf. The Chiefs, who had won two straight, dipped to 6-2. The point moved them into a share of first place in the Mainland Division with the idle Prince George Spruce Kings. Freshman Jagger Williamson, who just turned 16, recorded his first BCHL snipe for the Vipers, burying a rebound in tight after d-man Ryley Booth was denied by Pelino, with 1:56 gone in the second period. The Chiefs led 2-0 after 20 minutes despite getting outshot 13-6. Jake Larson, who pocketed 44 goals with the Minnesota Wilderness two seasons ago when the Wilderness qualified for the Royal Bank Cup in Summerside, P.E.I., opened the Chiefs’ offence at 6:38. Craig Puffer picked up an errant pass by Vernon d-man Brandon Egli and drew the assist. Californian Luke McColgan, the younger brother of former Kelowna Rocket Shane McColgan, connected from Larson a dozen minutes later, on a two-on-one break after

The Snakes won 5-4 in overtime to push their win streak to three games. the Vipers were caught pinching on a powerplay. McColgan finished with the hat trick, giving him six on the year, tying Puffer for the team lead. McColgan previously enjoyed eight- and 12-goal seasons with the Battlefords North Stars of the Saskatchewan Junior League. The Chiefs went ahead 3-1 midway through the second when McColgan wired a wrister from the high slot past Jarrod Schamerhorn. Vernon responded 68 seconds later when rookie Branden Wagner banged in an Aldworth rebound in tight. It was Wagner’s second goal of the year. The Snakes equalized at 7:11 of the third before 1,550 fans when Trevor Fidler found an empty net right side after Luke Voltin’s shot bounced off Pelino’s chest. Aldworth netted his fourth of the season with 11 minutes remaining. He turned and fired a high shot from just inside
the blueline after Mackenzie Bauer did some nice work to keep the puck in the Chiefs’ zone with no support. McColgan forced OT just seven seconds after Pelino was pulled for a sixth attacker, burying a slapper from the point two feet off the ice, with 53 seconds left in regulation. Vernon outshot Chilliwack 37-26.

The Vernon Home Building Centre Midget Tier 1 Vipers stuffed Seattle 7-2 in Monday’s B final of the Richmond Seafair Islanders Invitational. Seattle potted an early shorthanded goal, but Gabe Turner responded for Vernon by burying a rebound from Michael Lenoury’s shot on the powerplay. Despite being hemmed in for the rest of the first and the beginning of the second, Seattle reclaimed the lead five minutes into the middle frame. Shortly after, a drop pass from Connor Johnston set up Carl Main for a top-shelf blast, tying it 2-2. After being hooked on a breakaway, Darien Grace converted his penalty shot and gave Vernon their first lead of the game. Brady Marzocco’s goal, from Bryce Pyle, made it 4-2.

Mustangs end on high note Atom Magnums blast Sundevils Continued from B2
Keith Chase’s Vipers got two third-period goals from captain and d-man Dylan Sedlacek in a 6-3 win over Surrey Sunday morning. Surrey opened the scoring just past the midway point of the first before Joe Eggert pulled the Vipers even minutes later on a feed by Dawson Chase. Vernon pulled ahead in the second on a shortie when Noren picked off an errant pass and hit Chase in the slot for a wrister, high glove side. Surrey levelled the score again, but Chase connected with Nick Cherkowski and d-man Lee Christensen adding assists. Surrey scored in the dying seconds, making it 3-3 after two periods. Kael Black, Aiden Rysen, Cherkowski and Eggert added assists on Sedlacek’s snipes, while Burns rounded out the scoring on a pass from Eggert. Vernon then ambushed Port Coquitlam 7-0 Saturday afternoon with Noren scoring the winner from Lee Christensen and Aiden Rysen. Eggert and Bracken found the back of the net in the second with Cherkowski and Burns picking up the respective assists. Bracken bagged the goal as the
Vipers drew 1-1 with the Warriors in their opener, Eggert getting the helper.

Walters and Elliot was solid. Vernon bowed 4-2 to the Kelowna Rockets in their second game with Lochlan O’Keefe and Cole Boyarski giving the Mustangs a 2-1 lead after two periods. Assists went to hardskating Moger, O’Keefe and towering d-man Gilowski. Kelowna pressed in the third and rang up three unanswered goals.

Kamloops ground Atom Vipers
The Valley Wood Remanufacturing Atom A Vipers were thumped 7-2 by Kamloops #2 Saturday night. Nick Noren and Jace Weir provided the offence for the Vipers, who had Austin Seibel in net. “It was one of those nights where nothing seemed to go right for us – errant passes, bad bounces and missed scoring opportunities,” said Vernon head coach Trevor Seibel. “We’ll go back to the drawing board, re-group and reset in preparation for our home tournament.” The Junior Vipers have this weekend off before their home tournament, Oct. 24-26.

Prachnau earns BMO crown Morning Star Staff
Ryan Prachnau’s first-ever marathon win was a big one. The Abbotsford native finished in two hours, 39 minutes and 36 seconds to claim the 20th annual BMO Okanagan Marathon title under sunny skies Sunday in Kelowna. Edmonton’s Jason Britton was runner-up in 2:55:44 and Ryan Turner of Calgary placed third in a time of 2:56:39. “I thought maybe there was a good chance for me to win,” said Prachnau, competing in only his sixth marathon. “The first half of the race I felt really good, it was easy to stay on pace. It was the last 10k that was harder.” Edmonton’s Danielle Bourgeois clocked a 3:02:47 to claim the women’s title. Following in second place was Allison Blackmore of Calgary (3:05:38) and Edmonton’s Heather Kuzyk (3:08:39). A total of nine North Okanagan athletes completed the marathon, with Enderby’s Patricia Cech placing second in the women’s 60-69 age group with a 4:38:21.

In the half marathon, Penticton’s Jeff Symonds claimed his fourth BMO title with a 1:13:09. “It was a great day to run, perfect weather conditions,” said Symonds. “I was extra motivated to win and defend my previous titles at my hometown race.” Second place went to Calgary’s Alistair Hill (1:14:23), with Vernon’s Nathan Champness taking third place in 1:18:09. For the women, it was Edmonton’s Jillian Brady crossing first in 1:28:55, with Julie Compton of Vancouver (1:29:19) and Edmonton’s Stephanie Matheson (1:33:15) ranking second and third, respectively.

We will never walk on the moon. Frank and Ernest
Moderately Confused
Bridge by Phillip Alder THE SAME SPADES, BUT THE SAME PLAY? Sara Paretsky, an author of detective fiction, said, “Sometimes I think I’m a one-trick pony because I’m not very inventive about new ways of telling stories.” This week, trick one has been a one-trick spade pony with the king-four in the dummy opposite declarer’s queen-eight-three. But there can be more than one trick in this pony. Today, South is once more in three no-trump and West again leads the spade six. But there is a difference -- in this deal, West opened two spades to show a respectable six-card suit and some 6-10 high-card points. How does that affect declarer’s line of play?
North might have overcalled two spades with two notrump, but with an inflexible spade stopper and four hearts, a takeout double was preferable. Then South went for what looked like the most likely game, despite his uncertain spade stopper. (Note that five diamonds looks reasonable on the North-South hands, but the bad trump break would kill that contract.) South starts with eight top tricks: one spade (given the lead), four hearts and three clubs. Three more winners can come from diamonds, but since East probably has that ace (not many players open a weak two with a pair of aces), there is a risk that the defenders will take five spade tricks first.
In the last two days, declarer had to play dummy’s king at trick one. Now, though, the only way to make this contract is to play low from the dummy and low from hand, letting East take the trick with his 10. That anesthetizes the spade suit and the contract comes home with an overtrick.

Participants sought for youth parliament Morning Star Staff
The B.C. Youth Parliament is after 95 young men and women to visit Victoria this Christmas, debate important service projects and put those plans in place in 2015. For the next three weeks, BCYP is calling on community leaders across the province to nominate young people to take part in this opportunity. “BCYP is education and community service in action,” said Darya Ali, premier for the upcoming year of BCYP. “We’re looking for young people who want to learn more about our system of government, make life-long friends, and take part in projects that benefit our province’s youth.” The B.C. Youth Parliament is a nonpartisan, non-demoninational, non-profit service organization. BCYP plans, fundraises for, and puts in place service projects that help improve the lives of young people. These include group community service events, partnerships with community service organizations, regional model parliaments, and individual youth volunteer projects. BCYP members spend time at the Legislature between Boxing Day and New Year’s Day every year to debate and vote on the organization’s proposed activities and issues of local, national, and international importance. All members sit as
independents, and are free to vote according to their conscience on the issues.
Potential BCYP members will be n Between 16 and 21 years of age;
n Residents of the province for the past year; n Able to commit to
a year’s worth of service; and n Interested in learning more about
how our democratic system works. More information and membership appli-
cations are available online at www.bcyp.org. The application deadline is Oct. 29.

Why do I need a will?
A will is a device that lets you tell the world whom you want to get your assets. Die without one, and the state decides who gets what, without regard to your wishes or your heirs’ needs. Making a will is especially important for people with young children, because wills are the best way to transfer guardianship of minors. You may amend your will at any time. In fact, it’s a good idea to review it periodically and especially when your marital status changes.

Now that home inspectors have to be licensed, as a consumer what can I expect, and how do I know the guy is legitimate?
A:
As of March 31, 2009 all home inspectors in the province must be licensed. It is not good enough for them to say they have a certificate from ABC home inspectors training, that won’t cut it. Home inspectors must be licensed with The Business Practices and Consumer Protection Authority of British Columbia. Home inspectors must publish their license number in all of their advertising, all of their contracts and reports. You have a right to ask to see their license; doing home inspections without a license carries a five thousand dollar fine. Licenses must be renewed each year. I think licensing is a good thing as it protects you the consumer as well as leveling the playing field for us as home inspectors.
Q: A:
Q:
We are hoping to work on our household budget to see if we can afford to buy a home this year. Are there any online tools to help us to plan?
A:
One of the best resources available to you is through the Financial Consumer Agency of Canada - FCAC. If you visit the website at ItPaysToKnow.gc.ca you will see they have great budgeting tools available to help you plan for the largest purchase you will make in your lifetime with a home under Budgeting and their Mortgage Calculators. The website also had several tools for types of Bank Accounts, Credit Card information, Financial Goal planning and soon to be updated Mortgage Penalty Calculators. Tip: A great way to prepare for a new home purchase is to start to do a “pretend Mortgage Payment”, you would start to save for your down payment by transferring the pretend payment into a separate account from your regular Bank account. This is an easy way to see if the payment amount is easily managed within your budget.
I’m constantly selfsabotaging myself. How can I stop? Self-sabotage and self-love are opposite sides of the same coin. If we love ourselves, we won’t selfsabotage.
I believe that getting to that place of self-love is one of our life’s purposes -- a goal of every human being, whether they are consciously aware of it or not. It is also one of the most challenging tasks we have as our social conditioning and beliefs surrounding self-love are so strong. The good news is we can get there! Self-love can be created by making little loving choices every day. As Debbie Ford says “The choices we make that tell us ‘You are important. You are a good person. You deserve to take care of yourself. You matter.”

What is Mercury Retrograde? Retrograde is a term that means to go back in time, or appear to move backwards. Mercury is a planet and in the metaphysical sense is related to water and leans to travel, love and communication. When Mercury Retrograde is in effect (October 4 – 26: one of 3 times this year) all these areas are affected negatively. This is when travel plans go awry, mini spats evolve from within solid relationships, and our inside voice leaps out unedited – oops! Electronics take a hit during this time too, and those pesky emails tend to spark more than intended when what is written is not what is heard… In general, major electronic purchases are not recommended during this time, as there are enough lemons floating around to make many jugs of lemonade… Is Mercury Retrograde part of Feng Shui you ask? Well not exactly… but I will be holding off my new iphone until November…
CET, HIS Hearing Instrument Specialist
Q: A:
How loud does a sound have to be before it can damage your hearing?
Noise levels above 85 decibels can cause hearing loss over time. Everyday noises like fire sirens, road construction and even movie theatres can lead to permanent hearing loss in less than ten minutes. To give you some guidelines: A whisper is general 20 to 30 decibels, a lawn mower or truck noise registers at 90 decibels, a rock concert or baby crying can register at 100 to 130 decibels continuously. Gunshots are usually about 120 to 150 decibels.
