It has been a wet, wet week in Lake Country and on one front, infrastructure investments by the District of Lake Country for Vernon Creek are paying off. Two years ago, the Vernon Creek Spillway was upgraded as part of its lifespan maintenance. During the wet weeks of June this year, the magnificent rooster tail of water created by the spillway has been visual proof the upgrades are working as planned. The week of June 9 to June 12 saw water flowing at a rate of 7,620 litres per second over the spillway. It created a rooster tail of water from energy dissipaters that protect the plunge pool at the bottom of the spillway. â€œThis is the second highest flow Iâ€™ve seen in the past 18 years that Iâ€™ve been here,â€? said Michael Mercer, director of engineering. Mercer reported on the working of the creek at the June 12 Lake Country council strategy session. The 2010 upgrade project was worth $150,000. Vernon Creek is consistently monitored by Lake Country district staff. The spillway is considered to be an important part of the flood mitigation strategy for the creek and the project has proven its worth. â€œOtherwise, we may have been reporting on a much different outcome,â€? said Mercer. â€œStructure failure on

Polka Dot and Spot learn a lesson BY Lauren Harty, Grade 2 There once lived two curious little fawns. They lived with their mother. The girl fawn’s name was Polka Dot, because she had lots of them. Her twin brother’s name was Spot. He had different shapes of spots. Polka Dot and Spot went adventuring. Their mother warned them that there could be other animals that might be looking for dinner. Polka Dot knew better than to talk to strangers. Spot usually dragged her into things. On their way up a little hill, (that they called a giant mountain), they met a bear. He said hello with an enormous LAUREN HARTY grin showing his sharp teeth. “Would you like to come to dinner”, he sputtered excitedly. Before Spot could say a tiny yes, Polka Dot pulled him away. So they went back to their den. The next day they met a cougar. The cougar asked them if they wanted to come for lunch. This time they went because lunch was their favourite meal. The cougar took them to her cave. It was very dark, so the little fawns couldn’t see if the cougar was about to eat them or not. She was about to take a bite out of Spot, when his brave mother angrily barged in. She swiped them out of the pitch black cave and took them home for a serious talk. The next day their mother went with them. They met a wolf. He said he was having tiger lilies for breakfast. It was the deer family’s favourite food. The fawns had learned their lesson, but their mom hadn’t. She said “yes”, but her babies said “no”, and pushed her home! From that day on, the deer family never talked or went with strangers!

news â–ź BE SEEN

Pedestrian safety video on YouTube BOBBI-SUE MENARD Earlier this year Erik Madsen, a senior at George Elliott Senior Secondary School, won the BCAA video challenge, a province-wide competition that draws a lot of attention. After seeing the results of Madsenâ€™s video, the RCMP in Lake Country, the Rotary Club of Lake Country and ICBC, and the District of Lake Country approached him to produce a video on pedestrian safety. â€œI was pretty proud,â€? said Madsen. â€œIt is quite an honor to be looked at in that way, getting that opportunity is pretty big and rewarding.â€? For his 30-second video, Madsen said he found it easier to get people involved. The

production was on a grander scale, with 53 volunteers taking part. The interest in the production was a new experience for Madsen. â€œIt was good, but kind of an ordeal to get everyone organized. It was more difficult, but also more of a challenge and more rewarding in the end. We brought the entire community to produce this message. I think it meant a lot to everyone to have the entire community come together.â€? The advertisement has a straightforward narrative plotline. It features a pedestrian walking the wrong way along a street. Sheâ€™s wearing black, nonreflective clothing and headphones. The pedestrian causes a driver to

swerve their vehicle suddenly into a tree in order to avoid a catastrophic collision. Madsen said the message is about creating a safe road environment for everyone. â€œIn the video many people are on the road walking, but the driver does not see this pedestrian until it is too late. â€œThe twist in the story is that the driver swerves, and crashes into the tree. It gives the sense it is not only you as a pedestrian who is harmed, but also others. Your actions affect other people as well.â€? The 30-second ad packs a powerful punch. There are only three titles in the entire ad which include: â€œBe seen, it could save your life, or someone elseâ€™s.â€? This video is a different approach for Mad-

sen. His previous awardwinning video had a spoken narrative story and was much longer. The purpose of the video is not only to educate viewers on road safety but also to raise awareness of the Rotary Club of Lake Countryâ€™s drive to distribute reflective armbands to people in the community for use when walking. Contact the Rotary Club to get a pair of armbands which have also been made available to students through Lake Country schools. The video is up on YouTube. The fastest search is through the Erik Madsen Production Channel, look for the video called Be Seen. In the first three days of posting the video had been viewed 2,500 times.

â–ź FRUIT TREE PROJECT

Donate the ripe fruit off your trees BOBBI-SUE MENARD The fruit tree in your yard that never seems to be picked clean each summer can have a new purpose in life through the Okanagan Fruit Tree Project. Contact the Fruit Tree Project and their team of volunteers will come and pick the fruit from your tree, dividing the spoils of their labour between you, the Lake Country Food Bank and the Fruit Tree Project. The result is a healthy tree and plenty of happy people eating your fresh fruit. The Fruit Tree Project began in 2011 as an offshoot of the Okanagan Food Policy Council. The concept for the Fruit Tree Project is modeled on a similar successful program in the Lower Mainland. It is straightforward: Homeowners with established fruit trees and no desire to utilize their

fruit offer their produce to the Fruit Tree Project. In return, the project organizes volunteer picking teams and then distributes the fruit. The tree owner may choose to take a portion of the picked fruit with the remainder being divided between a local Food Bank and the Fruit Tree Project. The Fruit Tree Project uses its portion of the fruit for processing into jams and other fruit products for retail sale. These products become a primary source of funding for the project to continue. Spokesperson Christina Grieve says the Fruit Tree Project is just getting off the ground here and they are looking for people in Lake Country to donate their trees. You can call 778-2145664 to place your tree on the list to be picked, or visit www.cofruittreeproject.com.

â€œIt doesnâ€™t matter what type of tree it is, the yield, or fruit, simply call us to register the tree and then let us know when the fruit is ripe and ready to be picked,â€? explained Grieve. After those two simple phone calls, the Fruit Tree Project will take care of the rest, including bringing the equipment. The program is so young, they are looking for summer-long or permanent equipment donations for volunteers to use. If you have an unused orchard ladder in your garage they would love to hear from you. The Fruit Tree Project is writing applications for grants from various sources, but the program is designed to operate on a shoestring budget. The project has access to the kitchens at George Elliott School to process the fruit into delicious jams and canned goods for sale at the Farmerâ€™s

Market later this year. â€œWe wonâ€™t be selling fresh fruit,â€? Grieve said. Donations of canning jars and canning expertise are also welcome as the Fruit Tree Project looks to move ahead. Ultimately the project is about getting fresh fruit to people who might not otherwise enjoy in season, local produce. The bulk of the picked produce will go directly to the Lake Country Food Bank. Grieve says there is no tree too large or small for volunteers to come and pick. The goal is to put unwanted fruit into the food system for local residents. â€œUltimately we are hoping for more fruit than we can pick. Weâ€™ll go to the trees and trust people that the fruit is there, whether it is a small tree or a big tree.â€? Call 778-214-5664 to volunteer your tree, donate picking equipment or canning supplies.

To the editor: Have you ever wondered why Canada is in debt? This, and more, is what 12-year-old Victoria Grant, of Cambridge, Ont., asked on a YouTube that went viral. (http://www. cbc.ca/news/offbeat/ story/2012/05/16/victoria-grant-bankingcanada.html). Surely, this was a wellrehearsed video, but Victoria explained in six minutes what I’ve known for several decades but found only a limited audience. A few weeks ago, five university students in Kelowna, third and fourth year students, pretended and lived like they were homeless on campus. We talked, and I gave each of them four pages of thought-provoking material. I later asked one lady what she knew about financial matters, and where

▼ FIND WORK VS WORK SYSTEM

Choosing work instead of welfare

he B.C. government has taken some modest steps to tighten up the province’s income assistance system, and to encourage people to work when they are able to. With Premier Christy Clark swooping in to take credit, Social Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux unveiled changes that included fixing the worst mistake in B.C. Liberal policy. Cadieux acknowledged that B.C. was the only province that clawed back all earnings from employable welfare recipients, and she announced that from now on they will be able to earn up to $200 a month without penalty. The exemption for disabled people is increased from $500 to $800 a month. Another important change is requiring welfare recipients to file income tax returns. People can now do temporary work when it comes along, report the

BC Views

Tom Fletcher income and take advantage of the various tax credits that come from participating in society instead of just living off it. Any experience earning money is valuable experience. With baby boomers starting to retire in big numbers, the expected labour shortage has begun across Western Canada. And yet, increasing numbers of foreign workers are coming in to do farm and other work, while many young people are unemployed. Finance Minister Kevin Falcon took note of this during his budget

preparations. Increasing numbers of young, employable people were applying for welfare in southern B.C., while jobs go begging in the booming northeast. Falcon mused about setting up a program to provide training and plane fare for these people, an idea quickly dubbed “welfare air.” Another effort to get young people working is Jobfest, a rockthemed road show currently touring northern B.C. towns. It attracts young people with music and souvenirs like drumsticks and guitar picks, and offers them skills assessment using sexy iPad apps and graphics that depict carpentry as cool. If Jobfest and welfare air sound a bit desperate, it’s because they are. They illustrate our society’s problem. We have a public school system where students pass whether they do the work or not. The culture assumes self-esteem is more important than

achievement. The teachers’ union constantly sets an example that the way to get what you want is to stamp your feet and demand it from government. What do we expect young people to learn? And how easy is it for B.C. to slip into a Greece-like tailspin, where a majority expects to be carried on the backs of the shrinking minority who do productive work? Old-timers might recall when Mike Harcourt’s NDP government took over from the allegedly miserly Social Credit regime and raised welfare rates. They compounded that mistake by relaxing eligibility rules and making it easier for employable people to stay on welfare. After a couple of years of this wealth redistribution, 10 per cent of the B.C. population was on welfare, with more piling on every day. Faced with the results of this staggering

blunder, Harcourt lashed out at “cheats, deadbeats and varmints” scamming B.C. taxpayers and launched a crackdown on fraud. Later the NDP cut the basic rate for single employables to $500 a month. Today it stands at $610, and the NDP looks poised to repeat history. Surrey MLA Jagrup Brar did a month-long publicity stunt in January, living on welfare by wandering from shelter to food bank with TV cameras trailing behind. Brar would have been better off if welfare air had been available. Instead of learning to live off the burgeoning urban handout industry, he could have gone up to Dawson Creek or Fort St. John and worked as a labourer.

money comes from— (she said she knew) w nothing. No email or questions from anyone. w v At about the same time, before Victoria’s video went viral, I’ve sent a video from Paul Hellyer on money matters, to a UBCO philosophy professor, who responded: “I don’t have the expertise to evaluate the proposal of borrowing from the federal bank, but I’ll ask some people who do.” Why is there such ignorance, of professors and students alike, on this most important subject?

Economics not too Cultural filters that shape our religions complex for those H who bother to think ECONOMY FROM A4 wire from lampposts, or worse, from a 100,000volt power pole and get killed by electrocution. Why would thieves in England steal a 10ton bridge and sell it for scrap iron to a dealer, showing forged papers to police who directed traffic? In England also, thieves stole the lead roofing from a church and aluminium ramps for the disabled. On the flipside, why is there nothing that can be done to stop an Australian billionaire from building a second Titanic, which is wasting precious irreplace-

able resources, just because he was lucky and has money? I think Victoria Grant would understand, and perhaps her classmates too, that Canada has no need to spend $20 billion on fighter jets and, with our financial house in order, people would not have to work and supply the war industry to kill innocent human beings, half way around the world, and destroying our planet and her future in the process. My best wishes to you, Victoria. Gunther Ostermann, Kelowna

aving spent my first 10 years in India, I’m attracted to some elements of Hinduism, particularly the ideals in the Upanishads. And because I struggle to understand the nature of God, I like Hinduism’s “tat tvam asi”—whatever one can imagine, “that thou art.” The trouble with Hinduism, from my perspective, is that it is so, well, so Indian. All those Sanskrit terms, food I love but that doesn’t always love me, chants that sound so—so foreign. I’m also attracted to some elements of the Baha’i faith—their gender-equality, their tolerance of other traditions. But much of it feels so, well, Persian. I am, of course, Christian. At least, I claim

Life and Faith

Jim Taylor to be Christian—although some on the more conservative end of the Christian spectrum might challenge my claim. I used to think that Christianity had no particular cultural ties, that it was universal. But I am slowly recognizing that Christianity— at least, the Christianity that I grew up with—is also a cultural religion. It’s not Jewish, even though it has its ori-

gins in Judaism and still claims Jewish scriptures as part of its Holy Book. But Christianity lost most of its Jewish roots when Paul brought the story of the risen Jesus to Philippi at the head of the fabled Aegean Sea. He re-shaped the story of a Jewish Messiah into Greek thought patterns. He argued his case as Aristotle might have, by reason, not by narration. The religion that spread north and west, and eventually centred itself in Rome, would soon feel as foreign to Jews as Hinduism feels to me. As Europe became the industrial heartland of the globe, Christianity became even more a prisoner of its culture, especially since Gutenberg printed the Bible. When our preachers expound the word of God,

they think of the printed word of God. Evangelical preachers typically hold a Bible in their hands as they preach. Liberal preachers may not actually wave the Bible around, but they will inevitably refer to it, quote from it, building their message around it. Western Christianity has become dependent on the printed word. There’s a story about a church that used a red-letter Bible with the words Jesus supposedly said printed in red. As a reader prepared to read the gospel passage, the sun shining through the church’s stained glass windows cast a beam of red light upon the lectern. Jesus’ words disappeared. What would we do if we didn’t have the printed text to rely on?

Print automatically sets up its own set of perceptions. It is orderly. It is sequential. It is abstract. It is rational. But none of those are necessarily true of religious experience. Religious experience can be, and often is, chaotic, undisciplined, jumbled and immediate. McLuhan contrasted figure and ground. We focus on the figure, but fail to see how the ground influences how we see that figure. For western churches, print is the invisible ground that shapes “the word.” We see our faith through the filter of a technology. To other cultures, the rational faith I have known all my life must seem very, well, foreign. Jim Taylor is an Okanagan Centre author. rewrite@shaw.ca.

▼ MLA’S REPORT

Home owners have the option to defer property taxes for a while

t’s that time of year again—homeowners throughout B.C. are receiving their property tax notices. If a family is feeling a financial squeeze, that property tax notice might be unusually painful. Fortunately, there are options. Over the years I’ve served on city council and as your MLA, I continue to find people unaware that in some cases, they can choose to temporarily defer part or all of their property taxes to a later date, or upon selling the property. There is no means test or any other requirement to disclose reasons— everyone is different. It’s simply a provincial government program that helps individuals and families keep a few more dollars in their pockets when they believe they need them the most. Property Tax Deferment is a low-interest loan program that assists qualifying homeowners in paying the annual property taxes on their principal residences. The regular program is for property owners 55 years or older, a surviving spouse, or a person with disabilities as defined by regulation.

There are some restrictions and qualifications, but in all cases, to be eligible you must have, and maintain, a minimum equity of 25 per cent of the current B.C. assessment, after deducting the upper limit of all outstanding mortgages, lines of credit and other charges on your home. Your assessed property value for this calcu-

lation must exclude any improvements not covered by a current fire insurance policy. The Families with Children Property Tax Deferment Program is an option for families where no property owner is over 55, but would like to defer property taxes during those years when household costs can be high. To be eligible, property owners must be financially supporting at least one dependent child under the age of 18. Helpfully, it’s a flexible program—you may defer either all, or a portion of the unpaid current year residential or residential and farm taxes after deduction of the home-

owner grant. In all cases, property tax deferment is administered by the B.C. Ministry of Finance in conjunction with the municipal tax collectors and, in rural areas, the surveyor of taxes. Please note that if you sell any portion of your property, the tax and interest become fully repayable. Aside from deferring property taxes—which, again, is a temporary solution—homeowners may also want to look into the homeowner

grant program. Qualified applicants receive a reduction of up to $570, with an additional $275 available for homeowners aged 65 or over, permanently disabled, or eligible to receive certain war-veteran allowances. Homeowners need to apply for the grant each year when they pay their property tax. Additionally, the northern and rural area homeowner benefit of up to $200 is also available for homeowners liv-

ing outside of the Capital, Greater Vancouver and Fraser Valley regional districts. Should you feel property tax deferment is an option for you and your family, please visit the B.C. Ministry of Finance website www.sbr. gov.bc.ca and search for “property tax deferment.”

Community takes part in pedestrian safety A local video project titled Be Seen, highlighting pedestrian safety, enlisted the help of the Lake Country community. The production involved more than 40 community members to emphasize the point that

pedestrians should wear light-coloured, reflective clothing and always walk facing traffic where there is no sidewalk. Headphones should not be worn as they can prevent pedestrians from hearing when a vehicle is coming.

Produced in conjunction with the Lake Country Rotary Club, Lake Country RCMP and Erik Madsen Productions, Be Seen is a 30 second video bringing awareness to pedestrian safety. The local volunteers donated approxi-

mately five hours of their time on a Friday evening to make the clip. To assist with this initiative, the Lake Country Rotary Club donated over 6,000 reflective arm bands which will be distributed throughout the community.

New motorcycle laws phase in as of June 1 Recently, the B.C. government made amendments to the Motor Vehicle Act in an effort to improve motorcycle safety. Throughout June RCMP are phasing in the legislation with education, before the full weight of penalties start to be applied July 1. Provincial statistics show that three per cent of insured vehicles are motorcycles, however they account for 10 per cent of roadway fatalities. In 2011, there were 2,200 motorcycle crashes reported and 42 operators died. Between 1996 and 2010 motorcycle fatalities have risen by 57 per cent. The contributing factors to some of these fatalities were directly related to inadequate safety equipment and driver error. The new laws have the overall goal of reducing collisions and fatalities. The first law deals with helmets. Motorcycle riders and passengers are required to wear SnellM2005, Snell 2010, ECE or DOT compliant helmets. For the month of June 1, police across the province are ensuring a smooth transition to the new helmet law by carrying out an educational strategy. If you are caught without a proper helmet, RCMP officers, whenever possible, will ensure you have safe alterna-

tive transportation rather than issuing a ticket. Full enforcement begins July 1. In addition to improved helmet laws, new seating laws are now in full effect. They require operators and pasw sengers to be properly seated on the motorcycle or in a sidecar. The following are the restrictions that apply: â€˘ A rider who is unsafely standing or riding side saddle â€˘ A passenger 16 or older who is on a motorcycle not designed for passengers â€˘ A passenger 16 or older who is riding side saddle â€˘ A passenger 16 or older who is in front of the operator â€˘ A passenger 16 or older who is not using foot rests or foot pegs â€˘ A passenger 16 or older who is not seated in or on the sidecar. Violating the seating restrictions carries a vehicle impoundment period. The officer in charge of RCMP traf-J fic services in B.C., Supt. Denis Bou- J cher, said â€œthat this new legislation will save lives and reduce collisions. The reduction in harm on our roadways is a priority for us and we ask that the public help us achieving this goal.â€? Donâ€™t become a statisticâ€”drive safe and pay attention to the road. As we begin motorcycle season all drivers are reminded to be conscious of their surroundings and each other.

Policy restrictions for seniors can be confusing

hank you, to a fellow named Ron, for giving me the idea for my column this week. Ron is a senior. He called for my advice about qualifying for ICBCâ€™s â€œseniorsâ€? rate classification, which comes with a 25 per cent premium reduction. I figure we should give seniors a higher discount, by the way. Have you ever seen a senior texting or applying make-up behind the wheel? How about drag racing? Ron is an intelligent guy. The answer to his question wasnâ€™t as simple as adding up the years since his birth date to see if they add up to 65. Not only must the owner be at least 65 years of age to qualify, there are restrictions on how the vehicle may be used. The restrictions are confusing. Consider these couple of examples. Itâ€™s apparently OK to drop your 18-yearold granddaughter off at school, but not OK

Paul Hergott Achieving Justice to drop her off at the Burger King where she works. You can drive yourself to a part-time educational course, but only up to six times in a month, and you can never drive yourself to a part-time job. In the words of JoAnne Cloutier, an Autoplan field supervisor for ICBC: â€œThis all sounds very complicated.â€? No kidding! For help in understanding the restrictions, I invite you to read Cloutierâ€™s well-written article on the subject at www.myseniorsite.ca/ driving-discount.htm. I wasnâ€™t aware of her

article when Ron gave me a call. In fact, I wasnâ€™t even aware that a â€œseniorâ€? discount existed. I was entirely useless to Ron in explaining whether or not his proposed use of his vehicle was permitted. But I did give him some important advice: Donâ€™t ask a lawyer insurance coverage questions. Whom should you ask? Ask the person selling the insuranceâ€”the insurance broker. Get the answers in writing. Have the broker show you a brochure that contains the answer. If the brochure doesnâ€™t quite deal with your particular question, get the broker to write out the answer. Insurance coverage is very serious stuff. If you fail to abide by the restrictions of your rate category, you risk the insurance company refusing to provide the insurance benefits/coverage you purchased. This applies to all kinds of insurance, not just vehicle insurance.

Why ask the broker? You can rely on the answer. Sure, a lawyer (not me, obviously) might get the answer right, but save your money and donâ€™t take the risk that the lawyer might be wrong. It is the brokerâ€™s job to know answers to coverage questions. Not only that, but if the broker gives you the wrong answer, the broker will be answerable to you for the bad advice. Thatâ€™s where getting answers in writing comes inâ€”so you can later prove what you were told. Another piece of adviceâ€”if it says you can drive to school only six times in a month, donâ€™t think youâ€™re being sly by going a seventh time and not getting caught. There arenâ€™t any insurance police monitoring how you use your vehicle. Likewise, there arenâ€™t any insurance police monitoring whether or not you are a non-smoker when you apply for

your life insurance. You can bet your bottom dollar, though, that the insurance company will investigate after the fact, if there is a big enough insured loss, whether or not you complied with the restrictions of your rate class or whether you were indeed a non-smoker. If they find out that you failed to follow a driving restriction for your rate class, or that you lied when you gave your life insurance declarations, your insurance policy will be voided. It will be as if you never purchased the insurance in the first place. You might as well have been flushing your insurance premiums down the toilet. This column is intended to provide general information about injury claims. It is not a substitute for retaining a lawyer to provide legal advice specifically pertaining to your case.

Saturdayâ€™s defeat by the Okanagan Mission Boys U-10 saw the Puma boys go to four wins, four losses and one terrific 5-5 tie. Playing away from home, the Lake Country Youth Soccer Association boys had a sluggish first half and found themselves down by a 2-0 score. One of the opponentâ€™s goals was covered by keeper Jordan Barker, but the shot hit a Puma defender and bounced in. The Pumas were not able to test the OKM goalie with any clear cut chances, but midfielders Julian Beauchamp and John Henderson fought hard to keep the ball in their opponents end.

MINI WOLD CUP The Lake Country Youth Soccer Association boys U-10 Pumas became Argentina in a Mini World Cup tournament played on Sunday. The boys won two games in the huge event, by a combined score of 7-1. Goalkeeping was a big factor in the team success, with Thomas Bucholz, Parker Thomas, Jordan Barker all shutting out their op-

ponents. The single goal that Argentina did give up went by first-time goalie John Henderson. John, however, did chip in with two very good goals from his more usual midfield position. Other goals came from Ethan Prentice, Parker Thomas, Jackson Rosco, with Julian Beauchamp and Daniel Loban both scoring on fine left-footed shots. Neal McPherson missed game one with an injured foot, but recovered to play well in game two. Very strong and very dependable defending was played by Kylen Paskaruk, Jake Wood, Connor MacKay and Gabe Traass. The players all received a well earned nice mini-sized World Cup for their efforts.

A Lake Country Tennis Fun Tournament will be held on Sunday, June 24, from 12:30 to 4:30 p.m., at the Woodsdale Road courts. The format will be a mixed doubles/random draw.

news â–ź XERISCAPE GARDENING

Cooler, wet weather extends flowering time for some bulbs I â€™ve recently returned from a week in Alberta and am amazed at how many more plants have burst into bloom since I left. Walking in my neighbourhood, Iâ€™ve been especially aware of all the shrubs in bloom. Cooler, wet weather is lengthening the flowering time of some. Mock orange (Philadelphus lewisii) is just beginning to open its fragrant, white blooms in gardens and in the wild. Wild roses are covered in fragrant pink blooms. A compact variety, selected by UBC Botanical Gardens and available

Natural Garden

Gwen Steele at nurseries, Rosa woodsii â€˜Kimberleyâ€™ has darker pink flowers and small, bluish-green leaves. In my garden, another native, ocean spray (Holodiscus discolour) will open its froth of

creamy blooms in a few days. Later this month, the native elderberry (Sambucus caerulea) will open its lacy white flowers to be followed by masses of small smokey-blue berries. These can be made into a very healthy juice or wine. Two varieties of ninebark (Physocarus opulifolius) that I grow for their outstanding foliage colour are Diabolo with burgundy leaves and pink flowers,â€™ and golden ninebark with yellow leaves and white flowers. The golden variety blooms earlier and is just finishing.

Another burgundyleaved shrub, smoke bush (Cotinus coggygria Royal Purple) is just opening its smokeypink, frothy bloom which lasts much of the summer. Beauty bush (Kolkwitzia amabilis) is currently a mass of pink trumpet-shaped flowers that are enjoyed by hummingbirds. Its peeling bark creates good winter interest. All of these shrubs are low water users once they are established. There are many roses blooming right now. Rugosa rose varieties are among the most drought

tolerant. My favourite is Hansa with abundant, vervy fragrant fuschia-pink flowers. It blooms almost continuously from May to September. Another favourite is the equally longblooming Nearly Wild with single pink flowers. Roses with single petals are self-cleaning, meaning less work as they donâ€™t need to be deadheaded. Potentilla fruiticosa is another long-blooming, low water shrub. There are many varieties available. My favourites for toughness and long yel-

low bloom are Coronation Triumph and the low-growing â€˜Yellow Gem.â€™ It is a UBC Botanical Garden selection of the native shrub I have enjoyed seeing in Cathedral Mountain Park near Keremeos. Two very drought tolerant plants that are known as sub shrubs but often classed as perennials are also blooming. Both are deer-proof. Lavender has fragrant flowers and foliage and will bloom again at the end of summer, especially if dead flowers are removed. That is a good time to

shape it if needed. Up to one third of the foliage may be removed to encourage denser new growth. Yuccas have a showy spike or creamy flowers. These plants do best in full sun with no water. With so many plants in bloom, this Saturday is the perfect time for the annual Kelowna Garden Tour. I will be answering questions at garden number eight on the tour.

â–ź OUTDOORS

Dress for the rainy weather then get outside and enjoy yourself A bove the rushing sound of the water, the deep thunder of large boulders knocking into each other could be heard as they passed by in the violent flow of muddy Mission Creek. At first, I couldnâ€™t figure out what that clunking sound was, because normally you would not hear the sound of huge rocks hitting each other unless big earth-moving equipment was at work. But, this wasnâ€™t heavy machinery moving these boulders, it was the force of the water which had risen in the river that is mis-named Mission Creek, until it was spilling over its banks and into the undergrowth on either side. And, this was upstream from where a number of normallysmall creeks would enter Mission Creek and add even more force and quantity of water to the

Trail Mix

Judie Steeves flows in what is normally a fairly placid body of water. But, heavy rains and melting snow have swollen the creek in the past week until it reached what is believed to be record high flows over the past weekend, and even though the creekâ€™s level has dropped, thereâ€™s no end in sight. More rain and showers fell over the weekend, and thereâ€™s still lots of snow at high elevations around the valley waiting to melt and run

off into Okanagan Lake. The lake is expected to rise higher than its target level this year, although perhaps not as high as last year, which will mean localized flooding from that source as well. Last week, the bridge over KLO Creek carrying McCulloch Road was closed because of damage to one of its abutments, and that has inconvenienced not only the residents who live beyond that bridge, but also everyone wishing to reach Myra Canyon from the Myra end. Volunteers with the Myra Canyon Trestle Restoration Society planned to clear three slides off the Trans Canada Trail through the canyon over the weekend, and they had to use the longer route in, up June Springs Road to Little White Forest Service Road, and into the canyon through the old Ruth Station.

Luckily, board member Ken Campbell was up there last Thursday and said highways crews were grading the Little White Forest Service Road so it shouldnâ€™t be in bad shape for those wishing to access the canyon, until the Myra Forest Service Road is again accessible from

Kelowna. The society held its annual general meeting recently, and Campbell says it was well-attended and resulted in some new volunteers, which will be helpful when it comes to the maintenance work that needs to be done on the trail. All the board mem-

agement around the event, festival setup and tear-down, staff information booths, collecting donations, and help move performers between the stages.

Dealing with pain through acupuncture vs intramuscular stimulation

tatistically it is very likely that you, or someone you know, is putting up with some sort of long-term pain. In fact, based on recent studies on chronic pain in Canada almost one of every four adults in Canada suffer from chronic pain. So what can be done for treatment? Medications definitely play a large part in managing chronic pain but many people want other options outside of popping pills. Today, I am going to talk about two different types of treatments that use an acupuncture needle to help decrease pain. One option available for the treatment of chronic pain is acupuncture. Acupuncture was developed over 2000 years

Graham Gillies

Keeping You Fit ago in China and involves the insertion of very fine needles into specific points on the body in order to create a response that promotes healing of disease and injury. There are almost 1,000 different acupuncture points that can be used on the human body, with almost all of these matching up with specific nerves.

Stimulation of nerves causes the body to release natural painkillers (endorphins) and antiinflammatories and settles down â€˜angryâ€™ nerves that cause a lot of the pain in our body. Another type of needling is a much newer form of treatment for chronic muscle and nerve pain called IMSâ€” intramuscular stimulation. IMS was actually developed in the early 1970s but has been gaining national and international attention in the past 10 years as more physiotherapists use the technique on their patients. The person responsible for developing this technique is a western trained medical doctor in Vancouver by the name of Dr. Chan Gunn. Dr.

â€˜â€˜

IMS IS A MORE AGGRESSIVE TECHNIQUE AND CREATES MORE SORENESS DURING TREATMENT.

Gunn developed this technique while working with people who were injured on the job and who were suffering from chronic muscle and nerve pain. Although both traditional acupuncture and IMS use the same type of acupuncture needle, the technique and purpose are very different from each other. In traditional acupuncture the needles are

typically left in for 15 to 20 minutes or longer. There usually is only mild discomfort associated with the insertion of the needles and very few side effects. Overall the treatment is very gentle. In my experience traditional acupuncture can be especially effective when dealing with high levels of acute â€˜flare upsâ€™ of pain. Although slow in its acceptance in North America, acupuncture is now recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a â€œvitally important part of medicine.â€? Conversely, when using IMS only one needle is inserted at a time and the goal is to insert the needle directly into a taut muscle band that is causing the pain. The needle only stays

in for a few seconds and multiple muscles are stimulated in this fashion. IMS is a more aggressive technique and creates more soreness during treatment as well as after treatment (typically lasting between a few hours to a day). However, IMS has the ability to permanently loosen tight muscles and take the pressure off nerves that can often be the cause of chronic pain. It is in my experience that IMS can be very effective in giving lasting relief for chronic muscle and nerve pain. Acupuncture and IMS can both be very effective treatment options for musculoskeletal pain. Although similar in the sense of what is used (acupuncture needle) they vary greatly in

what they are effective in treating and what kind of experience it is for the patient during treatment. Remember that in both acupuncture and IMS the needles have no medication on them. It is purely your bodyâ€™s reaction to a needle that creates healing. If you or someone you know is suffering from long-term pain you may want to consider looking further into these treat- W ment options. Graham Gillies is a registered physiotherapist at Sun City Physiotherapy Winfield and is a fellow of the Canadian Academy of Manipulative Therapy and a certified Acupuncture and Gunn IMS practitioner. 250-766-2544 winfield @suncityphysiotherapy.com

â–ź YOUR HEALTH

Dreamlift Day pioneer sells franchises Recognizing the signs of a stroke John Tietzen is parting ways with Wendyâ€™s restaurants in Kamloops, Salmon Arm, Vernon, Kelowna, West Kelowna and Penticton. But Dreamlift Day isnâ€™t going anywhere. Tietzen announced his decision to sell the franchises last week. â€œI just need a new challenge,â€? he said. â€œIâ€™ve been in the food service industry since I was 15; it was my 24th year with Wendyâ€™s in the Southern Interior.â€? He began thinking about selling the franchises last year; however, he wanted to stick around until the Wendyâ€™s Dreamlift Day fundraiser, which Tietzen started in 1995, surpassed the $1 million mark. â€œTen years ago, we set ourselves a goal of getting to $1 millionâ€”that was really big for me.â€? Stepping into the former ownerâ€™s shoes is Ken Park, a man that Tietzen is confident will be able to carry on his legacy.

â€œHeâ€™sâ€Śgot four stores in Alberta. With this purchase he will become the largest franchisee for Wendyâ€™s in Canada,â€? Tietzen said. â€œIâ€™m pretty comfortable because Ken wants to keep our legacies. â€œHeâ€™s keeping all the staff, managers, regional office staff and area partnersâ€”the only person thatâ€™s leaving is me.â€? Most importantly, Park has promised Tietzen that he will keep Wendyâ€™s Dreamlift Day going. Heâ€™s even done his homework to ensure that he knows what kind of promise he is making. â€œHe came up here last year undercover and experienced Dreamlift himself without telling anybody. He knows what itâ€™s all about,â€? Tietzen said. â€œI think because of that I have a lot more confidence that Dreamlift Day will be successful and still grow every year.â€? Tietzenâ€™s long-term

future is still unclear, but immediately he will be involved with the Township 7 wineries he coowns in Langley and the Naramata Bench. â€œIâ€™m still going to look for other restaurant opportunities, wherever they may be.â€? When asked whether or not he will ever try to duplicate the Dreamlift Day effort with a different restaurant in the future, Tietzen said: â€œI believe as a businessman, if youâ€™re successful, you should give something back to the people that help make you successful, so I would find something. But no, I would not try to take on (another) Dreamlift Day.â€? He will, however, look to lend his assistance with Wendyâ€™s Dreamlift Days in the future. â€œI hope that they will include me. Even if Iâ€™ve got to go clean tables that day, I would still like to be involved in some fashion.â€?

Stroke is the thirdleading cause of death and a leading cause of disability for Canadians. Treatment is complex and time sensitive. In light of this, Interior Health urges residents to know the signs of stroke and get help as quickly as possible. â€œThe importance of early recognition canâ€™t be overstated,â€? said Dr. Todd Collier, a stroke neurologist at Royal Inland Hospital and Interior Healthâ€™s regional stroke leader. â€œThe fact is many people who could benefit from treatment donâ€™t access medical help quickly enough. â€œRemember â€˜FAST: Face, Arm, Speech, Time.â€™ If the face is drooping on one side, or there is weakness in one arm, or if speech sounds slurred or strange, it is time to call 911.â€? Interior Health continues to build on its success in improving treatment for stroke patients, with the (age-adjusted)

â€˜â€˜

THE IMPORTANCE OF EARLY RECOGNITION CANâ€™T BE OVERSTATED. Dr. Todd Collier

rate of deaths due to stroke decreasing over the last four years. The Canadian Institute for Health Information recently ranked Royal Inland in Kamloops as the best performing hospital in B.C. in the rate of deaths caused by stroke. RIH also placed fourth for best stroke patient outcomes among larger Canadian hospitals. Interior Health participates in the B.C. Patient Safety & Quality Council Stroke Collaborative. Teams at five Interior Health sites have been participating in this collaborative since September 2011â€”Shus-

wap Lake General Hospital in Salmon Arm; Royal Inland in Kamloops; Kelowna General Hospital, Cranbrookâ€™s East Kootenay Regional Hospital; and the Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital in Trail. The collaborative teams are working together to ensure efficient pre-hospital care, increase the rate of rapid medical interventions, further best-practice in emergency department stroke care, and help ensure patients at high risk for stroke receive the necessary follow-up. â€œAcross Interior Health, the collaborative teams have been active in making improvements at their sites. â€œThey are now looking at expanding the impact of their work to better support consistent stroke care at all of our facilities,â€? said Interior Health practice lead Lori Seeley. For example, in April KGH hosted the fourth

in a series of learning sessions that brought together members of the collaborative and stroke experts from throughout the province to share experiences and ideas to date. Staff have been working on incorporating many of the learnings shared through the collaborative to bring further consistency to stroke care in the Central Okanagan. â€œWe would like to recognize the collaboration and commitment of the many partners involved in helping us improve stroke care, including B.C. Ambulance Service and the B.C. Patient Safety Quality Council,â€? said Interior Health board chairman Norman Embree. â€œIn addition, our hospital emergency departments, diagnostic imaging, rehabilitation services and community care have all been working to improve outcomes for these patients.â€?

Spear grass can ruin fun of summer for both your pet and you

T Furry Friends

Moshe Oz

he summer is approaching, bringing along with it the typical veterinary issues that are related to the hot weather. Just in the last week alone, Iâ€™ve seen four pets coming to Rose Valley Veterinary Hospital with

spear grass in their ears. Spear grass invasion is a subject that becomes relevant every year in the spring and summer seasons. Spear grass is a type of a wild grass with barbed seed heads. The spear grass awns carry the

seeds, they are very sharp and can bear a hazard to your pet. Spear grass is very common in our area, and can be found everywhere including in your own yard. Spear grass is most harmful for dogs once

it has become dried out and more easily falls from the stalks. It is most often a problem from late spring through the fall. The shape of the grass awns makes them very likely to penetrate into the body.

Because of the shape of the grass, it cannot back out the way it came in and so can only move forward. The most common areas in the body prone to spear grass invasion are between the toes and in the ear canal, but in

my career Iâ€™ve removed spear grass from various places in the body, including the nose, eyes and the genitals. The awn burrows into the tissue and acts as a foreign body. The body recognizes the foreign body and develops an inflammatory reaction around it. The area becomes swollen, red and very painful. If left untreated an abscess can be formed. An abscess is a pocket of pus, that keeps growing until it becomes very big and the tension might lead to the burst of the abscess and to a large open wound. When spear grass penetrates the ear canal, the consequences can be severe. Because of the incred- y ible grass migratory ability and inability to back out there is a risk that the awn will perforate the ear drum. This condition might lead to permanent complications in the ear. The symptoms of spear grass penetration are acute pain, swelling and redness. If found between the toes the pet might lame on the leg and will lick the paw constantly. Spear grass in the ear canal is usually manifested by a sudden onset of head shaking, scratching the ear and restlessness yelping. Having symptoms in only one ear is very suspicious for possible spear grass presence. If you recognize any of these symptoms take your pet to see your vet. The earlier the process is treated the easier it is to prevent complications. Very frequently spear grass removal requires some sort of sedation or general anesthesia. The spear grass awn needs to be taken out and in case of an abscess formed, the veterinarian might place a drain for a few days. The veterinarian is also very likely to recommend a topical or systemic course of antibiotics and pain medication. Delaying the removal of the awn may complicate the condition. Sometimes it penetrates so deep that it is hard or even impossible to locate and remove it. You can try to prevent spear grass penetra-

Action only redeeming quality in Prometheus PROMETHEUS

n Greek Mythology, Prometheus felt sorry for mankind because he was cold, with nothing to keep him warm so, against Zeusâ€™ orders, Prometheus stole fire from the Gods for man. This didnâ€™t go over too well and after years of torture, Zeus relented and released Prometheus. Prometheus is considered the protector of mankind. In Prometheus, the movieâ€”originally intended to be the prequel to Alienâ€”scientists discover identical drawings all over the world dating back more than 35,000 years. They seem to depict that the â€œcreatorâ€? of man came from another

Susan Steen Behind the Screen planet. With the help of Weyland Industries, (which seemingly has its own agenda), a 17-member crew reaches the site they believe these aliens came from and are introduced to a life form that, to say the least, they were unprepared for. The cast is an interesting one. Charlize Theron who takes

the role of Miss Vickers, has just recently been seen as the bitchy queen in Snow White and The Huntsman. She must have thought she had not left that set, because in this one she plays an equally bitchy team leader with her own demons. Hardly recognizable as Dr. Elizabeth Shaw is the lovely Naomi Rapace, who we saw in The Girl With The Dragon Tatoo; Michael Fassbender is Weyland Industriesâ€™ eighth generation android David; and English born Guy Pierce is also unrecognizable as the aging Peter Weyland. What can I say about this oneâ€”gory, scary, intense, action-packed and the acting is fine. One does get the feeling that this is a bunch of amateurs and have no busi-

ness in outer space, let alone asking such questions as: â€˜Where do we come from?â€™ â€˜What is our purpose?â€™ and the everillusive, â€˜What happens when we die?â€™ There were some good lines. I liked: â€œThis is a scientific expedition, so no weapons.â€? Reply: â€œOh, good luck with that.â€? We come away no wiser, and with no more ethereal answers than we had going in, but then would we want to? I give Prometheus three out of five reels for the action.
