Good news: two people have been arrested in connection with one of the suspicious fires in Vernon over the past few weeks. Bad news: it’s the only case solved so far, and the suspicious fires continued after the arrests, spreading to the Township of Spallumcheen. Police received help on the fire reported in the alley in the 3200 block of 31st Street on May 29 at 2:40 a.m. through video evidence from nearby businesses. “Officers did some good followup work and were able to identify and arrest two suspects in relation to that particular arson file,” said Vernon RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. Two suspects, both Vernon men, aged 24 and 30, were arrested Friday night without incident. The pair were released on conditions and promises to appear in court on June 26 to face the possibility of arson or mischief charges, which will be determined by Crown counsel. Molendyk said the investigation revealed that the pair were only linked to that particular case. Police, he said, have had some dealings with the individuals but when asked if the men were known to police, Molendyk said “no.” The next night, Saturday, at about 10:40 p.m., emergency personnel were called to a report of a boat on fire in a compound in the 100 block of L&A Cross Road in Spallumcheen. “The fire was extinguished by the Armstrong Spallumchen fire department and at this time it would appear to be suspicious in nature,” said Molendyk. One insured pleasure boat was completely involved and destroyed, and a second boat nearby sustained some heat damage. There are no damage estimates at this time. Officers are looking into this fire

“We’re using all the resources within the detachment so we can bring this to an end.” — Gord Molendyk

as part of the ongoing suspicious fires in the area lately as Molendyk said there was no ignition source for the boat to catch fire. Of concern to police and emergency personnel is this was the first suspicious fire reported outside of Greater Vernon. “Absolutely it worries us,” said Molendyk. There are 13 such suspicious fires under investigations. Two boats, two vacant buildings, a motorhome, a vehicle, a port-a-potty, railway ties and pallets, along with trash, have been set ablaze. “We don’t know if it’s one or more individuals,” said Molendyk. “Sometimes what happens in these types of cases is other people, copycats with the publicity, get involved. It’s concerning for us.” All of the fires have taken place at night or in the early morning hours. Molendyk said no accelerant has been found at any of the suspicious fires. Finding the person or persons responsible has become a top priority for the detachment. “We have allocated some of our resources, and we’re looking at resources from outside,” said Molendyk. “We have specialized units being deployed, Citizens On Patrol are being asked to patrol areas they normally wouldn’t patrol, and we’re asking for expertise from outside agencies. “We’re using all the resources within the detachment so we can bring this to an end.”

Landing history captured

Officer seizes cleaver, bat and hammer

richard rolke Morning Star Staff

A critical chapter in the Okanagan’s early history is now being told. The Okanagan Landing Stationhouse Museum and Art Gallery was officially opened at Paddlewheel Park Sunday. “I’ve been waiting for a long time for this event,” said Val Heuman, with the Okanagan Landing Community Association. The museum is in the original 1892 stationhouse, which was part of the Canadian Pacific shipyard and railway terminus, where Paddlewheel Park is. From the late 1880s to the early 1930s, Okanagan Landing was the transportation hub for the entire valley. New settlers passed through the shipyard on their way to their final destinations, while fruit and other commodities were shipped out to the world. The stationhouse used to sit by the boat launch and was almost demolished in the 1980s until community advocate Edna Oram led a fight to save it. Ultimately, it was moved farther on to the park property and eventually was connected to Paddlewheel Park Hall as plans for a museum took hold in 2009. “The building is an artifact even before you put items into it,” said Heuman. About $150,000 was raised from donors to transform the aging building into a museum, but critical to the process was the army of volunteers. Among them was Miriam Jayne, who died in March at the age of 90. “Every Monday she came and worked at what ever she could. Right until the end she was here,” sad Heuman. The focal point for the museum is a 20-foot-long diorama, which details the shipyard as it was in 1914. The model was constructed to scale by the North Okanagan Model Railway Association. “We had a set of plans of what everything looked like,” said George Copley, NOMRA president. Everything has captured right down to outhouses and chickens.

gary Fisher checks out a model of the shipyard at the okanagan Landing Stationhouse Museum while ron Candy (below), greater Vernon Museum curator, welcomes residents. “I came in when they were doing the wharf and they had tiny match sticks and they were being laid in by tweezers,” said Heuman. Checking out the model Sunday was resident Gary Fisher. “It’s breathtaking,” he said. The rest of the museum includes photographs and period artifacts. “As the summer progresses, you will see more,” said Ron Candy, Greater Vernon Museum curator. Alan Hill, who was instrumental in the CP lands becoming Paddlewheel Park, welcomes the museum. “The idea of establishing the park is we (Landing) have a somewhat separate identity and this helps,” he said. Volunteers are currently being sought to operate the museum. “We want it open from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekends and from 1 to 4 p.m. on weekdays,” said Heuman, whom prospective volunteers can reach at 250-558-1063.

A Vernon police officer wondered why, on the second day of June, a teenager was walking downtown wearing a heavy winter coat. The officer was doing patrols in the area of the downtown Safeway just after midnight Monday when he noticed two males on foot. One of the individuals was wearing the winter jacket and a white bandana over his chin. “When the officer spoke to him, he appeared to be concealing something in his jacket,” said Gord Molendyk, Vernon RCMP detachment spokesperson. And the suspect allegedly had more than one thing concealed under the coat. After detaining the male for possible possession of a weapon, the officer, while conducting his investigation, discovered a small bat wrapped in electrical tape, a butcher’s cleaver, a hunting knife, a small hammer and mace. “Further investigation learned that this young man is on an 11 p.m. curfew and is not to possess any weapons,” said Molendyk. The 16-year-old from the Penticton area has been held in custody and was expected to appear in Vernon Provincial Court Monday.

Round two of job action has teachers and students in protest. On Monday, the North OkanaganShuswap School District started the second round of strikes, followed by striking teachers throughout the Vernon district Tuesday. While the honks and waves of passing motorists shows some in the public are supporting the strike, some students will themselves be protesting. A B.C.-wide walkout has been planned for 9 a.m. today in response to the dispute between the B.C. Teachers Federation and the government. “The two sides are like parents who are divorcing and have stuck their children in the middle for the last thirteen years,” reads the Facebook event called Save Our Students. But it’s not just the students who are fed up. Everyone wants a resolution so they can get back to class. “What we’re supportive of is a fair deal and let’s get on to educating kids,” said Enderby’s A.L. Fortune

Secondary principal Gene Doray. But there are some serious issues which the teachers are fighting for. Nothing has changed in the past dozen years, as schools continue to wait for smaller classes and special needs support. Retired teacher Michael Holoiday joined his colleagues on the picket line Monday at the Enderby high school he spent 32 years teaching at. “Why has it taken 12 years to resolve this issue?” he questioned. A.L. Fortune teacher/counsellor Don Bennett says the funding formula, where schools gain funding based on the number of students, doesn’t work. “It’s not cheaper because it’s two kids less,” said Bennett, as buses still have to run, lights still need to be on, heat is still necessary and teachers are still needed to teach the kids. “When programs get cut students suffer,” said Bennett. “You cannot expect that services will be the same.” One major area of frustration is a lack of special needs support.

THE PERFECT BACK RIB! Back ribs generally have more meat and are more tender than side ribs, thus they are often more expensive as well. The bones (ribs) on back ribs are small and more rounded in cross-section than those of side ribs. To prepare the perfect mouth-watering, fall-apart tender back ribs, follow these simple directions: • First, boil or bake in the oven for 1 1½ hours until tender • Cool and keep in the fridge for up to 3 days • When ready, put on the BBQ on low heat, basting with BBQ sauce until hot By turning and adding sauce while cooking, you will infuse flavour and achieve the desired colour.

Trike returned

photo submitted

Two trikes similar to this were stolen from the Seaton Centre although they are light purple in colour and did not have baskets. One has been returned.

Morning Star Staff

One down, one to go. The Kindale Developmental Association reports that one of the two three-wheeled bicycles stolen from the Seaton Centre May 10 or 11 was returned after an article appeared in The Morning Star Sunday. “It’s fabulous to have one back,” said Cindy Masters, with the Kindale Developmental Association, which serves the needs of the developmentally disabled. “Hopefully the second one will come back.” Word of the theft had been posted on social media shortly after the incident, but no tips were received. “It was the power of traditional media,” said

Masters. “It wasn’t until it was in The Morning Star that we got a call.” The second trike can be returned to the Seaton Centre at 1340 Polson Dr. with no questions asked, or call 250-546-3005 or 250-503-7974.

Teachers frustrated over system When resources, such as education assistants, are removed from the classroom and the onus is placed on one individual, the rest of the class suffers, says the BCTF. One teacher, who wished not to be named, said this happens everyday as the government doesn’t fund the full day of supervision that a special needs student requires, forcing others to assist them. “It’s pulling support from kids who need it,” she said. Chandra Hamilton and her kids were out picketing in front of Ellison Elementary Tuesday solely in support of CEAs. “I really feel that if we lose our CEA support staff at schools then the academic learning in classrooms will be delayed due to the time that will have

to be spent with these children that need that extra support, or these children that need the support will not succeed because of the lack of one on one time they require,” said Hamilton. But the common theme is that no one wants to be out striking or protesting, especially the teachers who have been out on picket lines for the second time in two weeks. “I’ve got kids writing provincial exams and I should be meeting with them today,” said the anonymous teacher. “I’m not happy being out.” Meanwhile Doray says students are fortunate they can work remotely during strike days or perhaps get some extra hours in at work, or at home. “I know some parents are putting their kids to work,” said Doray, adding that graduation events will continue as normal.

VJH project begins Morning Star Staff

There will be a ceremony today to launch construction of the new inpatient units at Vernon Jubilee Hospital. The ceremony is set for 11 a.m. The two floors will contain 60 beds, with 14 being new and 46 relocating from elsewhere in the hospital. The majority of the 60 beds on floors six and seven will be in private rooms complete with their own washrooms. The project cost of $29.6 million is being shared between the provincial government, the North Okanagan-Columbia-Shuswap Regional Hospital District and the Vernon Jubilee Hospital Foundation.

Many homes built between the late 70s and the early 90s experience sealed unit failure. Unit failure leads to condensation forming between the two layers of glass causing them to steam and fog up.

Yes, the only real solution is to replace the sealed unit. You only need to replace the glass not the frame which means it can be done easily with a minimum amount of disruption.

metres of new crosscountry trails this year and more will be added in 2015. The expansion will total $250,000 and will provide riders of all abilities with more trail options. “Last season, we saw rider visits increase by eight per cent and when riders become aware of the expanded trails, it will solidify Silver Star’s reputation as one of the best bike parks in Canada,” said Ian Galbraith, Silver Star’s summer business manager. “The expansion will play a big part in

increasing rider visits this summer and while we are a long way from matching skier visits we are building a healthy summer business and increasing the resort’s four season appeal.” The 25 kilometres of new trails are being added to the park’s existing 75 kilometres of combined trails. There will be 50 kilometres of downhill and 50 kilometres of crosscountry by the end of summer. The downhill trails range from green (easy) to double black (expert only) that challenge both beginners and

advanced riders. It has 18 downhill mountain bike trails: three double black diamond, five black diamond, six blue, three green, a vault skills area, five multi-use trails and seven cross-country bike trails. Silver Star is currently being evaluated by the International Mountain Bike Association for a designation to classify its bike park as an IMBA Bike Centre. “Silver Star’s bike park will become the second in Canada after Burns Lake to be granted IMBA Bike Centre status,” said Galbraith.

on industrial land, and Acton believes such activities could bolster the community’s economy. “We have 200 acres of industrial property,” he said. “That’s taxable income and jobs translate into stores and housing.” And there already appears to be some interest in Lumby becoming the location of medical marijuana operations. True Leaf Medicine has applied to Health Canada for a licence to grow and distribute medicinal cannabis from a facility in Lumby. True Leaf includes former premier Mike Harcourt as chairperson and chief executive office Darcy Bomford, founder and former CEO of Darford International.

Rail line process evolves kevin parnell Black Press

Calls for public use of a rail corridor have heightened after private interest failed. Discussions between Canadian National and a business to operate the rail line between Coldstream and Kelowna came to an end Monday. “CN will be offering the line to the federal government for purchase. They will have a 30-day window to respond,” said Warren Chandler, senior manager of CN public affairs. “Should the federal government not purchase the line, it will then be offered to the provincial government, followed by the municipal government. Both will have 30 days to respond.” Duane Thomson, a member of the Okanagan Rail Trail Initiative, says a potential trail along the old CN Rail line would be a huge boost for Lake Country in a number of ways. “We have the vast majority of the lakefront that the rail line runs along. If you think about the loops that it would open,” said the retired UBC Okanagan history professor. “You would have Pelmewash on the west side of Wood Lake and the rail trail on the east and north side. You have a world-class loop in terms of running or cycling. You have lake shore that is pristine and previously inaccessible.” The potential for a

The Okanagan Rail Trail Initiative wants to link Coldstream to Kelowna. rail trail along the old rail line became a possibility when the Kelowna Pacific Railway ceased last year and CN Rail began the official abandonment process. Thomson says a new trail could be used to reinvent Lake Country, giving the area a major tourism boost. “It would be a wonderful draw,” he said. “This has the potential of creating Lake Country as Lake Country. It’s going to fulfill that name. It could brand us as a world-class cycling and hiking destination. It would boost our restaurants, bed and breakfasts, our museum and

art gallery. It would attract tourists that are typically recently retired, pretty wealthy, world travelers. If you can bring that type of visitor into your community for a few days that’s huge.” Thomson says if you combine the rail trail with the Pelmewash Parkway, Lake Country could have an incredible trail network. “If we can somehow arrange to purchase the rail bed, this would be two pieces together — Pelmewash on the west and the rail bed on the east and north end of Wood Lake. That would create a wonderful trail.”

He hopes politicians from the federal, provincial and municipal governments can all work together if given the opportunity to acquire the rail line. “Ideally, this would be a joint project so the three levels of government negotiate with CN and some how divide up the cost,” he said. “It could be such a positive development that politicians could gain support for doing this. They would be remembered for stepping up to the plate and acquiring this for the Okanagan. This would be a wonderful legacy for the community and for the politicians.”

Are You Taking Care of Your Shoulder Pain? Discover a New Option. Shoulder aches and pains are common, but because our arms seldom get a rest, these aches often become chronic injuries: knots, spasms, frozen shoulder and tendonitis. Many of us learn to live with it and think, “It’s a part of my lifestyle or job”. Many of us have had chronic tendonitis, making it difficult to lift a carton of milk or wash our hair. And many of us have exhausted a variety of therapies.

DR. RYAN HARRIS

Therapy, the only therapy I found to get rid of my pain and heal my injury. Shockwave, developed to break up kidney stones, can break down scar tissue and stimulate new blood vessel growth, promoting proper muscle function and restarting the healing process.

It is in those injuries that have lingered for months or years where shockwave shines. If you have chronic shoulder injuries, don’t give up hope. If I had, I would not be in practice today.

Glenmore Chiropractic

Most therapies have an affect only on new injuries that are days to weeks old. Once scar tissue forms and healing stops (chronic), we are at the mercy of the injury. Over and over in my practice I hear, “I have been dealing with this injury for months or years and tried everything. Nothing has worked… what do I do?”

According to the Journal of the American Medical Association 2005, shockwave therapy had a 91% success rate for the treatment of calcific Rotator Cuff Tendonitis. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

I tell them about the tennis elbow and shoulder tendonitis I had, both of which nearly caused me to shut down my practice. I talk about the multitude of therapies I tried to no avail. Then I talk about Shockwave

Where it all started

ong before direct flights to Mexican resorts and five-hour drives to Vancouver, there was Okanagan Landing. “You can compare it to the Kelowna International Airport of the time,” said Ron Candy, Greater Vernon Museum curator. Between the late 1800s and the early 1930s, the narrow strip of land we now know as Paddlewheel Park was the transportation hub for the valley as small tugs and impressive sternwheelers plied Okanagan Lake, and trains from Sicamous and points east terminated there. “There wouldn’t have been much of an Okanagan without it,” said George Copley, with the North Okanagan Model Railway Association. And that’s putting it mildly. Thousands of families had their first introduction to the Okanagan as Richard Rolke they waited to be called on to the Aberdeen, the Sicamous or countless other vessels. From there, they would put their past lives behind them and seek out new futures at points across the central and south Okanagan, whether it was as fledgling orchardists, professionals or merchants. “You went down to Okanagan Landing by the train and got onto the old Aberdeen. It would go backwards and forward across the lake,” stated an early pioneer in Bright Sunshine and a Brand New Country. “You called in at those various little settlements on the lake where there wasn’t a house in sight, except a man and a dog would come down and pick up a paper or a can of coal oil or something like that and walk away.” It was through Okanagan Landing that some of my family made their way to Kelowna in 1911 (the first wave came overland in 1909), and it was a scene repeated in the mid-20s as

the rest of my great-grandparents and grandparents established roots in Westbank and Osoyoos. But beyond being a gateway for settlers looking for their forever home, Okanagan Landing was a critical link between the isolated valley and the rest of the world. Carloads of apples, pears, peaches and cherries were shipped to far-off markets, allowing the fruit sector to become a major economic catalyst. And when Europe became embroiled in a bitter trench war between 1914 and 1918, men throughout the valley eagerly enlisted, boarded the closest ship on Okanagan Lake and then, via train at the Landing, headed overseas. Many of them, including two great-uncles of mine, never felt the warmth of the Okanagan sun again. All of this came to mind as I toured the new Okanagan Landing Stationhouse Museum, which was unveiled at Paddlewheel Park Sunday. The brainchild of the Okanagan Landing Community Association, the Greater Vernon Museum and the North Okanagan Model Railway Association, the museum captures a time period before four-lane highways, passenger jets and the World Wide Web. One small community served as the welcome mat for an entire region. It is a reminder that the Landing had its own identity long before being annexed by Vernon in 1993. “It plays a part in holding all of us together,” said Alan Hill, the former Okanagan Landing electoral area director. Bygone days may be easy to ignore, but the Okanagan wouldn’t be where it is today if it wasn’t for those dreamers and risk-takers who established roots here. Their descendants expanded by the thousands and it’s through them that our communities remain vibrant and active. Head to Paddlewheel Park and see where it all started.

The instant gratification of the digital age has detrimentally affected everyone’s ability to see the bigger picture, both as it relates to the past and the future. Two current issues paint a picture of this myopic attitude. Christy Clark is not the first premier to talk about how the process for the way government and teachers bargain is broken. Somehow, because she has said it recently in this round of contentious bargaining, it becomes a new thing, like some kind of revelation. It is not. The characters change in the premier’s office and at the top of the teachers’ union, but the same script is spoken every few years. The facts are, enrolment is down in many jurisdictions. When the formula used to fund the system is based on per pupil numbers, the pot is smaller. It’s not rocket science. The teachers also say, every time their contract comes up, they are fighting for the children and the level of their education. If they were only asking for smaller class sizes and a return of supports and enhancements like aides and librarians, that would be more believable. The BCTF says the average salary of a teacher in B.C. is $71,485. While the BCTF is coy about its wage-increase demands, some reports indicate the BCTF is asking for 16 per cent over four years, 21.5 per cent if you work in the increased costs to benefits and reduced workload. You can read the same phraseology, the same comments from both the government and the teachers, in any labour dispute between the parties for the past four decades. As Yogi Berra said, it’s deja vu all over gain. It’s not a new issue. All of the parties involved should stop treating it as such, admit culpability and move to make real, systemic changes so we’re not talking about the same things in another 20 years. – Black Press

Education resources needed

hanks to Richard Rolke for his thoughts regarding the state of public education in our province. The editorial that appeared beside Richard's column, however, showed extreme naivete. The writer seems to think that all that's wrong with our education system is some "dog-eared textbooks, outdated computers, long bus rides and occasional gaps in supervision." Everything will turn out OK, the editorial states. Kids are tough and they'll accept school for what it is. In the fairly recent past, students with various learning and behavioural issues were often in a separate setting, as were students with physical and mental disabilities. There is much to be said for having them in regular classrooms. However, to put a large number of them into a class of 30 students, with little to no support, is ludicrous. We now have students with fetal alcohol syndrome, autism, dyslexia, blindness, deafness, severe behavioural problems, mental health issues and a host of other problems in our regular classrooms with no limit as to how many of these students are allowed in a single class. Again, I must emphasize that there are many advantages to including all children in our classrooms. The problem is the numbers and the severely limited support. It used to be that there was a limit of three per class. Now there are classes in which there are anywhere from five to eight or nine students with these issues, and only one CEA (certified educational assistant). In the senior grades, there might not be any support at all. On top of that, we seem to be funding our district through our international program, in which students from China, Korea, Japan, parts of Europe and elsewhere, come into our schools and pay enormous sums of money for the opportunity to learn English in Canada. Here's the catch, though. Many of these students — in fact, the majority —

do not have sufficient English skills to handle the regular classes, but are put into them anyway. Instead of our schools providing adequate ESL programs, these students are put into Grade 10 or 11 English classes to study fairly sophisticated novels, drama, non-fiction, and poetry, and to try to cope with the expected proficiency in writing skills that are well beyond their ability. Often they soon give up and just wait out the course to fail. A few years back, our senior-level English teachers were promised there would be only two or three international students per class, and that the overall numbers of Canadian students per class would be reduced. This failed to happen. Teachers trying to cope with the large number of students with disabilities, along with the number of international students who can't speak, read, or write English proficiently, simply do not have enough time to to give these students the attention they need. Try teaching a class of 30 students when your class list consists of three severe behavioural problems, four learning disabled

students, one student with mental health challenges, one autistic student, and five more teenagers who cannot speak, read, or write English beyond a very limited ability. Teachers are told any student who cannot do the regular work should be put on an individualized education plan, meaning different (easier) assignments, books with simpler vocabularies, and very basic composition requirements. If it were two or three students who needed this, it would be one thing, but when upwards of a third of the class needs it, something is very wrong with the system. So what happens in the classrooms now? If the teacher actually expects that students passing English 11 have managed to demonstrate the skills necessary for that level, then either half the class will fail, or else the standards have to be lowered. I doubt that any teacher will tolerate seeing half the class fail, so inevitably the standards suffer, and students pass whose reading and writing skills are inadequate for that grade level. Also, when standards start to suffer, some of the other students see this as an

opportunity to skip classes, ignore homework assignments, and hand in shoddy work--and still pass the course. Students need only 50 per cent to pass a course officially, and often will pass with anywhere from only 47 to 49 per cent. Some students are motivated to do their very best, and teachers encourage all students to work hard and learn to the best of their ability, but there are those students who aren't buying into it and are satisfied to scrape by, no matter how hard the teacher tries to challenge and engage them. Teachers put up with dog-eared textbooks on a regular basis, and it's no big deal, but trying to cope with a chronically underfunded school system for the last 12 years is discouraging and frustrating. Some school districts in our province have actually announced they will no longer hire librarians for their schools. With all of the emphasis on increasing the literacy rates in our province, this seems like cruel irony. Just like the nurses, teachers do amazing work with few resources, but it's at the expense of both the teachers' and the students' wellbeing. When teachers ask for modest wage hikes, this is only a very small part of the current job action. Many would be happy to stay at the same salary but instead have reasonably sized classes and a limited number of special needs students who have the support of enough learning assistance teachers and CEAs. Unfortunately, though, teachers have many times settled for giving up wage increases in order to get proper class size and composition gains in their contract. These were hard fought battles, and then the government illegally ripped up the contract and took away all that teachers had bargained for in order to benefit their students. When are things going to change? It's been 12 years so far, with no end in sight. Jane Maskell

Bands swim to hometown show Vernon bands Amistad and Paperboy play Powerhouse Theatre Friday

Contributed to The Morning Star

Like the great Moby Dick, something big is coming to Vernon. On Friday, Powerhouse Theatre is going to be something even old Herman Hesse might write about when two of Vernon’s hottest rock ‘n roll outfits harpoon the hearts and minds of all in attendance. Swabbing the deck will be Paperboy and Amistad. Paperboy, who have a new bass player in tow, has been burning a trail across the music scene in the B.C. Interior and have been asked to play festivals in Tofino and Alberta this summer. Like Paperboy, Amistad’s live performances are renowned for being highly energetic and entertaining.

Honk! if you love Ugly

f I’ve said it once, I’ll say it again, Brian Martin is one Ugly dude. Now before you press send on that hate letter, please know that I mean that as one big, beautiful compliment. With his “ducky” voice and facial expressions, Martin had the audience in stitches and tears as he stole the show this past week, taking on the starring role as the Ugly Duckling in Big Apple Productions’ and Valley Vocal Arts’ presentation of Honk! The Musical at Powerhouse Theatre. Despite being a full grown Kristin Froneman adult, although some would argue that fact upon listening to him on his morning radio show, Martin won hearts especially while singing the musical number Different, which I am sure left a few audiences members verklempt. In fact, all the stars of Honk! should be proud. This barnyard was stacked full of talent, delivering the wink-wink humour, funny to both and adults and kids, and singing such razzmatazz numbers as Hold Your Head up High and Warts and All, as only a professional sounding ensemble could. Like British author George Orwell (Animal Farm), Hans Christian Andersen, who wrote the original Ugly Duckling, was a man before his time. His tale speaks to the underdog, make that under”duck,” in all of us. The truth is, we have all been Ugly at one time. Here, Ugly is the outcast, his peculiar honk and grey feathers setting him aside from the flock. Even his dad Drake (played here with baritoned bravada by Don Cecile) doesn’t accept him. His sisters, a gaggle of texting and catchphrase lovin’ (OMG) gals, make fun of him. It’s his mom, Ida (the golden voiced Karen Kulak Bliss), who loves him despite his differences, singing the heart wrenching Every Tear a Mother Cries when Ugly disappears in the marsh. On his tail is the rascally kitty, Cat (Paul Rossetti, hamming it up to the most deliciously “cat”aclysmic heights; his medley of cat tunes at the end is the pièce de resistance), while other characters including Greylag, the pompous pilot goose (Michael Cairns, doing his best Michael Caine impression), his flight attendant Dot (Jenna Roze) as well as the delightful duo of Queenie the cat (Susan Evans) and hen Lowbutt (Sue Gairns), set Ugly on his path. It’s his meeting with Bullfrog (Craig Howard) and the beautiful swan, Penny (Courtney Harker), that brings the message, and Ugly, home. A giant quack must also be delivered to director Melina Moore for bringing this musical to town, and for her direction from the seat of her piano, no less, playing alongside the actors the whole performance. Here’s honking for more.

Amistad members Carson Bassett, Craig Matterson, Aidan Andrews, Eli Garlick and Nolan Bassett share the stage with fellow Vernon band Paperboy at the Powerhouse Theatre Friday. The band won Best Stage Performance at the 2012 Our Kids Have Talent music competition, and members say they like to make their shows fun and unique by dressing up and entertaining the crowd. Their act has won praises

from fellow musicians. “Their stunning attention to detail, their ear for mood and incorporation of nature into their sound has had me recommending these young bucks to everyone I know. They are Vernon’s band to watch,” said

Luke Mortenson, lead singer, guitarist with Paperboy. Paperboy and Amistad take the stage at Powerhouse Friday at 7 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. and tickets are $10 on sale at the Bean Scene, from band members and at the door.

Colin Firth plays a POW in The Railway Man For The Morning Star

The Vernon Film Society will be showing the movie The Railway Man Monday. This well-received film, based on the memoirs of Eric Lomax, revisits the Second World War and the story of the men, mostly captured at the fall of Singapore, who were sent to work on the infamous Siam-Burma railway. They endured terrible conditions, including torture, and thousands died in the Japanese attempt to build the railway to help their war effort. Colin Firth “brings endless pathos to the part of a broken man looking for some sense of redemption and closure,” said Vancouver Sun film critic Katherine Monk. He plays the part of Eric Lomax in later life, still suffering from PTSD, which for most veterans of the Second World War was not recognized on their return to regular life. Although not mentioned in the film, he had a wife and two children

who also suffered from his experiences. The film takes up when Eric, now divorced and always a railway enthusiast, meets Patti (Nicole Kidman in a truly terrific performance) on a train and they start a romantic relationship. After their

marriage she realizes he has many problems and helps him as he tries to confront his past. Using flashbacks with Jeremy Irvine (War Horse), playing a younger Lomax and showing what happened when the men were trying to build the railway, we get a picture of the many horrors the men endured. Lomax finds out that one of his main torturers is still alive and running a museum on the site of the railway and travels to confront him. When Lomax finally meets with Takashi Nagase (Hiroyuki Sanada) somehow this powerful tale of heroism, humanity and the redeeming power of love comes together to be somewhat resolved. The Railway Man will be shown at 5:15 p.m. and 7:45 p.m. Monday at the Towne Cinema. Tickets are $7, available at the theatre and Bean Scene one week ahead. Warning: The film contains scenes of violence and torture and is rated 14A.

Speeders pulled over roger knox Morning Star Staff

Two North Okanagan novice drivers learned an expensive lesson. Do 40 km/hour more than the posted speed limit and not only will the driver be fined, but their vehicle – whether it has two wheels or four wheels – will be Gord Molendyk impounded. The RCMP’s North Okanagan Traffic Services (NOTS) unit continues to encounter motorists speeding excessively. On May 29, two motorists had their vehicles impounded for seven days, in addition to excessive speed-

ing fines, and, in both cases, the drivers were classified as novice. “One was travelling in the rain at 148 km/h in a 90-zone,” said RCMP spokesperson Gord Molendyk. “The second one was on a motorcycle traveling at 170 km/h in a 90-zone. That, of course, is nearly double the posted limit.” The driver of the vehicle travelling at 148 km/h was fined $368 along with the impound. The motorcyclist, clocked at 80 km/h more than the posted limit, was fined $480 along with the impound. B.C.’s speeding law compels police to impound vehicles that are travelling more than 40 km/h over the posted limit. Molendyk said patrols targeting high-risk driving behavior will continue by the NOTS unit.

Aberdeen Road delays underway Morning Star Staff

Road work is slowing down motorists in Coldstream. Crews continue to work on Aberdeen Road today through Friday, from Highway 6 to Middleton Drive in preparation for paving. Motorists are advised that there will be single lane traffic and occasional delays during this work.

“Please obey all traffic control personnel and signage,” said Keri-Ann Austin, Coldstream’s director of corporate administration. “The district apologizes for any inconvenience.” There is also sanitary main flushing underway until June 13 on Kidston Road, Kinloch Drive and in the Tamarack/Ponderosa area.

Four-time cancer survivor Patty Kinghorn walks with her family at last year’s Relay for Life. The annual fundraiser starts Saturday.

Walking the Relay for Life Cara Brady Morning Star Staff

People walk at the Canadian Cancer Society Relay for Life for family and friends they have lost to cancer, for those who are living with it, and so that someday no one will ever have to have cancer again. “Everyone needs to do this walk. They need to walk in the presence of those who have left,” said Nancy House, who was part of the Baron Insurance Group last year, walking for co-worker Patty Kinghorn and family and friends. “I was still grieving for my mother and a friend I lost to cancer and to support Patty, who has had four different types of cancer in the past eight years. Most of us here have worked together for a long time and when Patty first got sick it was a shock. She is the epitome of goodness, beautifully caring and compassionate. She’s our sister, den mother, mentor and keeps us on the road of what we do.” House was happy to hear that Kinghorn came through an operation last week successfully and she will be on the Baron Group’s minds as they walk. Each person will also have their private memories, House of her mother who died of cancer resulting from exposure to second-hand smoke, and her good friend, Lois. The walk around the track

at Polson Park was lined by luminaries, lit candles in sand in paper bags with the names of family members and friends who had died of cancer. “When I was at the walk, I didn’t feel I was alone. We walked in silence, some others were talking, and there was a feeling of a lot of love. It’s an honour to be able to walk and pay our respects to those who fought so hard. Every story you tell is a connection to those around you.” House said another aspect of the walk for her was the realization that people have to take responsibility for the parts of their health that they can control, and she made some changes to her lifestyle. “I really appreciate the people behind the Relay for Life for doing what they do. It’s a healing walk. I felt other people’s relief and a lot of hope and sense of community, that we have to look after each other, that we’re all here for the time we should be. “It gives you a better perspective of how fragile things can be. It changes how you treat people with more kindness and compassion and not to judge anything until you see the whole picture. There is an energy at the walk. I think everyone takes away something spiritually and emotionally — a beautiful, healing energy. I was amazed

Trip to India shines light on environmental crisis

ake the only tree that’s left/And stuff it up the hole/in your culture/ Give me back the Berlin Wall/give me Stalin and St. Paul/I’ve seen the future, brother/it is murder. — Leonard Cohen, Recent Songs-The Future Travel in India is akin to shock therapy.

From the moment you step off the plane, the sheer crush of humanity, the chaos and the obvious environmental degradation grab you in a choke hold and force you to witness the collision between an exploding population and limited resources. India, without question,

touched. A 200-km trip from Delhi to Agra was a marathon sixhour bus ride through countryside barely visible though the smog of car exhaust, dust, wood burners, brick foundries, and industrial fumes. Everyone on the bus coughed constantly. Food breaks were impossible as parking was nonexistent in the endless flow of cars, trucks, buses, motorcycles, bicycles, rickshaws and humanity. Upon arrival the bus parked 500 meters away from the Taj Mahal. No one is allowed to drive to the site because the Taj Mahal is melting. Pollution has carved and pitted the ancient marble and her structure is dissolving under the influence. As a solution, all visitors are put in an electric car to make the last part of the journey. The irony of our ride in the pollution-free car seemed to be lost on the organizers as we coughed and squinted to see this magnificent structure through a shroud of smog. The return trip was more of the same; back to Delhi under a lurid red sky, a city of 22 million, itself a vision of the apocalypse. It is easy to be smug living in Canada.

Many may even question, Why do we need to care about other countries? Canadians enjoy a low population density, clean air and water, abundant resources and one of the highest standards of living anywhere on the planet. Some of us dutifully recycle our waste, turn off unneeded lights and try not to idle cars unnecessarily. Unfortunately, many of us consider this to be the end of our responsibility for addressing global environmental problems. While Canadians like to brag about their National Parks and wild open spaces, we seem increasingly willing to turn a blind eye to resource development, no matter how polluting it is, as long as jobs are being created. As long as the economy keeps chugging along, everyone sighs and shrugs their collective shoulders as another pristine area is poisoned, because, after all, it is usually occurring somewhere we don’t see. We are good consumers, and jobs and economic growth always come first. The same can be said for India, but with a population 30 times larger than ours, the result of such decisions and their impact on the environment are proportionally magnified. What we need to realize is that Canada and India (and many other areas of the planet) are no more separate than conjoined twins sharing vital organs. When

disease affects one it will be the demise of the other. David Suzuki recently stated that the environmental movement has failed and I, reluctantly, have to agree. I am not a doomsayer, I am simply a traveller and my journeys have shown me that environmentalism unravels under population pressure. People require basic necessities and as population density increases and resources are scarce the environment is relegated to a luxury, a footnote, with stewardship in the back seat. Fifty years after its birth, environmentalism has fizzled out. In the ‘70s, I recall the formation of the first Canadian Federal Environment Ministry to advocate for land protection. In the ‘80s, clear cut logging was considered a sin, Greenpeace was a hero and the Athabasca tar sands would never be developed because of the environmental destruction it would bring. In the ‘90s, life got so damn good, everyone forgot about it all. We got wealthier and bought Hummers. In the 21st century a recession scared everyone and the economy and GDP growth became the only topic worth mentioning. The scare over the end of oil changed to oil everywhere — we just have to get it — from the ocean, the rock, the sand and who cares where, as long as we get it. The mantra

changed from sustainability to growth and jobs. Governments became more conservative and less visionary, Canadian academic research that was not pro expansion was suppressed or unfunded, and environmentalists became misguided exhibitionists or terrorists, while corporations promoted throw-away consumerism, all with government’s blessing. There is now a collective indifference to greenhouse gas emissions, water quality, air pollution, you name it — because we are the only species on the block and, after all, what can we do? We titter about monster storms and then read our email, log on to Facebook or have a latte. Some ignore the fact we are changing the planet, or worse, deny it altogether. Along with most, I am asleep at the wheel and that is why, for me, India was such a smack in the face. It forced me to see what I choose to ignore, to wake up and see the world today, to understand what the collective choices of my generation have led to and to question what we have left for our children’s future. Nothing short of a global environmental revolution will change the direction we are headed and neither the visionaries nor the warriors are in sight. Without them Leonard Cohen will move from a poet to a prophet with his words, “I’ve seen the future brother, it is murder.”

Horoscope BY BERNICE BEDE OSOL

Gear up to make the changes this year that will help you feel accomplished. Procrastinating is a waste of time, and waiting for things to happen or come to you will end in disappointment. You can improve your station in life significantly if you are proactive. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) The answer to a personal problem will reveal itself. A situation that you thought unresolvable will come to an amiable conclusion if you are willing to negotiate.

Previous Solution Sudoku

CANCER (June 21-July 22) An unexpected surprise will develop, helping a difficult situation turn positive. Cast your worries aside and plan to relax with someone you enjoy spending time with. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) If you wish to raise your standard of living, make some adjustments. Your current employer may be nice, but could also be taking advantage of your talents. Inquire about salaries for equivalent jobs. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your good-natured joking will be misinterpreted. Make sure you are laughing with your friends, not at them. A feud is likely to develop if you aren’t tactful. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) A short trip will clear your head and motivate you to take on something new. Discovering new skills and enjoyable activities will help you make new friends.

Created in Enderby, a 10-foot tall metal mule deer has come home for good. The sculpture, made in his Enderby shop by Braden Kiefiuk of Majestic Metal Art, had been on loan to a business in Salmon Arm. But after striking up a conversation in the winter over curling with Enderby Coun. Tundra Baird, it was decided that the deer belonged where it was born. The city donated a small plot of land on Highway 97A beside city hall and the museum. Last week, the metal sculpture was permanently ensconced by Kiefiuk, who had a hand from Central Hardware crane operator Sam Hadden to lift the deer into place before the final bolts were screwed into place. “The donation of the land is great,” said Kiefiuk. “I talked to

DORK DIARIES: TALES FROM A NOT-SO-GLAM TV STAR Everyone’s been rooting for Nikki Maxwell and her crush, Brandon—and fans will finally learn if they had their first kiss in this seventh book of the New York Times bestselling Dork Diaries series!

“For my son, who wants more than anything to be accepted for who he is, not what he ‘has’. ” ~ Joanne register and join us today • www.ridedonthide.org

Nikki’s juggling a lot this month. A reality TV crew is following Nikki and her friends as they record their hit song together, plus there are voice lessons, dance practice, and little sister Brianna’s latest wacky hijinks. Nikki’s sure she can handle everything, but will all the excitement cause new problems for Nikki and Brandon, now that cameras are everywhere Nikki goes?

it to city hall and got things rolling. “It was about six months of going through all of the hoops to get the project going.” That’s about one month less than the time it took Kiefiuk to create the deer in his shop. A shop foreman

during the day at Combined Mechanical Contractors, Kiefiuk spent his extra hours at night and on weekends making the sculpture. The unnamed deer is 10-feet tall from bottom to the top of its antlers. It’s made out of 16-guage hot-rolled mild steel for the skin, and various sizes of pipe and rod inside for the framework… Having it on the side of the highway will be a boon for Kiefiuk, along with the city. “The exposure is huge,” said Kiefiuk. “This is the main thoroughfare for anybody coming from Alberta. They have to drive by my deer.” As the installation was going on, motorists were slowing down to have a look at the sculpture, many with eyes wide and big smiles. Said Enderby Coun. Brad Case: “I can’t believe he’s here in our community. I think it’s amazing, awesome, I love it. It’s just one more thing you recognize about Enderby. It was a totally easy decision for us to donate the land.” Kiefiuk is already at work on his next project: a grizzly bear and cubs. “You won’t be able to see it until the unveiling,” he smiled.

Breakaway Fitness Centre is giving Vernon bikers a chance to bring their wet wheels indoors for a drag race. On Sunday, there will be a roller race to raise money for KidSport and to celebrate Breakaway’s new ownership. “We are trying to get people excited about this new sport. The people here are fairly unknown to it,” said co-owner Sharon Annis.

The bikes are stationary with the rear wheel attached to a pair of big rollers that rotates as the athletes pedal. The rollers are hooked up to TVs which display the race like a video game. Teams of two or four will compete in races 5002,000 metres. Roller racing is relatively new in Canada, while the U.S. and the U.K. have been doing it for decades. Kamloops has held roller races at the Tournament Capital Centre in the past few years. People of all ages are encouraged to sign up. Teams can contact Breakaway Fitness for registration. It is free to sign up, but Breakaway is accepting donations for KidSports, which provides underprivileged children with the opportunity to play sports. Breakaway T-shirts and water bottles will be given away all afternoon and there will be a hot dog and hamburger tent with all proceeds going to KidSport. There will also be two one-year gym memberships to Breakaway Fitness given away after the races. Drop-in workout fees will be reduced to $5 during the race. The event is also to commemorate the new ownership at Breakaway. Roger and Sharon Annis took over the gym about a month ago. “We are really excited about the gym. We want to make working out affordable for the people of Vernon and make it a family environment,” said Roger.

The Okanagan’s Sterile Insect Release program is gaining international attention. SIR is hosting a global group of specialists in the science of controlling insect pests in Kelowna until Friday. “Our 20 years of using an area-wide approach to controlling the devastating pest of apples and pears, the codling moth, is envied around the world,” said Cara Nelson, SIR general manager. Specialists in areawide integrated pest management and sterile insect technology will be attending from the U.S., Europe, China, Malaysia, Chile, Tunisia and South Africa. “The world wants to know about what we’re doing; about how we’ve been so successful at reducing the amount of pesticides used in this valley,” she said. The week-long visit is an official research co-ordination meeting on increasing the efficiency of Lepidoptera SIT by enhanced quality control, held by the Joint Food and Agriculture Organization of the International Atomic Energy Agency, based in Vienna, Austria. The Okanagan SIR program was initiated because of the damage codling moth causes to commercial apple crops. Data collected by the provincial environment ministry shows the volume of pesticides formerly used per acre against the codling moth in the valley has dropped about 90 per cent since 1991 and there has been more than a 90 per cent reduction in the level of codling moths in the valley.

New-look Tigers rattle Rocks Morning Star Staff

Fans tailgated and the Vernon Source for Sports Tigers donned savvy new jerseys in front of more than 450 fans as Junior B lacrosse finally arrived in Vernon Saturday night. The Tigers sent the crowd home happy as they stopped the Armstrong Shamrocks 12-3 in Thompson Okanagan Junior Lacrosse League action at Kal Tire Place. It was Vernon’s home opener. The Tigers (6-2) took a backseat this spring as the Royal Bank Cup used Kal Tire Place. The Tigers came out in a new retro-styled jersey. Tigers is proudly written in cursive across the front over a cream background, while blue and orange stripes go over the arms and stomach. Despite all the hoopla surrounding the home opener, the Tigers only led 4-3 heading into the third period. “It took a while for the guys to get used to the bigger arena. It is a lot cooler in there with the climate control. It’s a nice change,” said coach Keith Hanna. “We talked in the second intermission that we needed to stick to our game-plan and stay focused. There was some stuff going on out there that was distracting us; we just needed to stick with our game.” The Tigers outscored the Rocks 8-0 in the final frame. Ryan Sarazin

pulled the hat trick, while Sean Connors, Jordan Orr and Connor Buick sniped two goals each for the Cats. Brett Hanna, Braden Barr and Darryl Landels added singles. It was Connors’ last game for a while as he travels to Europe on a backpacking trip. He is expected back for provincials, Aug. 2-4, in Vernon. Joel Castle, Cole MacFarlane and Cam Nelson replied for the Shamrocks (3-6). The Tigers’ defence has held their opponents under five goals in five out of eight games. “Our guys are playing as a unit. Colton Harrish, Mack Leroux and Brock Wagner are doing a great job. Guys are sliding off their checks and passing them along without letting anyone get loose,” said Hanna. Aaron Jensen got the start for the Tigers. He leads the league with a suffocating 3.29 goals against average and .911 save percentage. Jensen was relieved by local boy Dylan Hiemstra with seven minutes to play. “It felt amazing to play in front of that crowd. That was really nice of Keith to do that for me,” said Hiemstra, who played minor lacrosse for the North Okanagan Legends. During the second intermission, former Tigers’ coach and GM of 13 years, Rich Zecchel, was presented a recognition award from captain Brett Hanna and governor Rob Seaton. Vernon hosts the South Okanagan Flames (1-5) Saturday night.

Mick moved to Merritt as part of Chanter trade The Vernon Vipers have sent forward Logan Mick to the Merritt Centennials to complete the future considerations in a previous deal for defenceman Dylan Chanter Mick, 17, brings 102 B.C. Hockey League regular-season games experience to the Centennials, along with 16 playoff games and four games at the Royal Bank Cup. He missed the Vipers’ semifinal RBC game versus the Yorkton Terriers with the flu. The hard-hitting Mick rung up 11 goals and 23 points, along with 63 penalty minutes

with Vernon. Mick has committed to Quinnipiac University Bobcats for the 2015-16 season. His father, Troy, a former Viper coach, was a member of the Merritt Warriors in the 1984-85 season. “It’s a tough one,” said Vipers’ head coach/ GM Jason Williamson. “He’s a local with ties to the community, but it’s a business sometimes. He was an energy player and he’s got a great career ahead of him. One more year and then he’s off to university.” Mick, who turns 18 in July, is well known

for finishing all his checks and driving the net with pro speed. “He skates as well as anyone in the league and once he puts together the whole package, he’s going to be dangerous,” said Williamson. Cents’ head coach/GM Luke Pierce, a former Viper, is stoked to add Mick, who was not available for comment. “We are excited to add a player of Logan’s ability to our group,” said Pierce. “He gained tremendous experience this year in a long playoff run and playing at the RBC. He plays with a lot of energy and brings a skillset that

I believe is ready to break through.” Troy Mick, meanwhile, has stepped down as head coach of the BCHL Salmon Arm SilverBacks. Mick, 45, will take over as governor, also serving as president and GM. “Having just completed our first year as the new ownership group of the SilverBacks, we have realized that Troy was wearing too many hats and we wanted to make some changes as we quickly approach the 2014/2015 season,” said Dale Unruh, outgoing governor.

United U13s record split off the shirt of an offender and past keeper Hailey Yablonski. The second half was scoreless with the mid field of Danica Ariano, Elena Gaskell, and Megan Sherwood solid. Kelowna opened their offence with a superb passing series and ensuing scramble. Late in the second half, a great carry and pass by Jayden Strachan was denied by the Kelowna defence. Yablonski recorded serveral diving saves and long kicks as Vernon’s defence re-grouped. Kelowna netted the winner on a late breakaway.

U14 girls stretch streak

United U14 girls kept their unbeaten streak going by stopping second-place Kelowna 4-1 and bouncing Kamloops Blaze 3-0. Paige Latta pulled the hat trick and Evan Koshure added a single against Kelowna. Jai Sidhu supplied two goals with a passionate performance and Ali Holman netted the other goal versus the Blaze. Said coach Ley Christensen: “A solid defence line has always been our calling card and that defintely continued, but our performance at the offensive end is really starting to gel.” Christensen also had praise for centre back Jordan Butler, who battled and won balls all week end. Props also went to Kalli Hamilton Gee, who was bold in the midfield, showing great vision and distribution.

U15 girls shut out Stallions

In U15 girls action, Vernon toppled the Revelstoke Stallions 2-0 Saturday at Mac Park. Abbey Hughes and Sheyna Camalush supplied the goals in support of Marina Dempsey. Vernon had major possession in the attacking half for most of the first half but couldn’t find the back of the net. Hughes scored first off a cross from Jaime Grages and Camalush scored off a great shot at the top of the 18. “We received great effort on the back line from McKenna McWillis, Madison Catt and Makenna Southam and up front by Kristen Tennant,” said United coach Michelle Hughes. The Kamloops Blaze bounced United 2-0 in U16/17 girls play Sunday

United U15 boys lost 2-1 to visiting Kamloops Blaze Blue Sunday. Vernon came out sluggish in the mid-day heat and allowed Kamloops to take the game to them. Despite a majority of the possession, Kamloops didn’t create many quality chances as Vernon kept their defensive poise. Vernon began to assert themselves more as the half wore on and were rewarded with some great chances. Kevin Thibault, who had a fabulous game, rattled a rocket off the post and Joshua Gray also bounced a solid header off the crossbar.

Ashley Flood of the Vernon Tanks slides into home against the Vancouver Impact in women’s fastball play Sunday at Mission Sports Fields.

Tanks roll up second spot Morning Star Staff

The Vernon Brewers Sports Tanks bowed 7-6 to the Kelowna Kaos in Sunday’s final of the 12-team Kelowna Women’s Fastball Tournament at Mission Sports Fields. The Tanks, coached by Scott Flood, were up 6-5 when the Kaos used a lead-off single and a couple of bunts and passed balls for two runs in the bottom of the seventh inning. “The girls played some great ball for six games in a pretty competitive tournament,” said Flood. Cassie Marshall went the first four

innings on the hill before being relieved by Sara Wallis. Centre fielder Tara Joe was 3-for-4, while second baseman Bianca Dewitt was 2-for4 with two RBI. First baseman Ashley Flood smacked a two-run single in the first inning and then badly twisted her ankle sliding home, in the same inning. Vernon ambushed the North Vancouver Blue Jays 11-1 in the semifinals with Joe making an awesome diving catch in centre field. Shortstop Taylor Weixl and Flood each homered as the Tanks toppled the Vancouver Impact 9-7 in two extra

innings, in the quarters. In preliminary games, the Tanks doubled the Field of Dreams 10-5, mauled the Maple Ridge Nemesis 11-4 and smothered Abbotsford Rage Conspiracy 14-2. The core of the team was coached by Flood in 2009 when they won the provincial Midget title. They play in the Kelowna Women’s League. Catcher Kristin Limbris, second baseman Leah Schaefer, outfielders Eva Wiens and Coola Lewis and utility players Kaylie Herrewynen and Danielle Saddleman round out the Tanks’ tournament roster.

In the second half, Geoff Straight nailed a sizzling shot that went off the crossbar and in. Lake Country came back hard and netted the next two. Meanwhile, the Okanagan Spring Camels shut down the Vernon Liquor Store Stallions (formerly Stars) 2-0 in an entertaining clash of local 45+ Titans at Marshall Field #1. The Liquormen enjoyed a couple of early attempts on goal by John Matejicka and dancing fool Paul McArdle. The Humpbacks picked up the pace as the game became a see-saw of chances with Stephen McCourt’s breakaway late in the first half sweetly tipped just wide of the post by Camels’ keeper Dave Dutcher. The second half was no different as both teams wrestled for domination. The match looked to be heading for a welldeserved tie before Stallion keeper Ted Lurkins was fooled by a 30-yard linedrive knuckler by central midfielder Brian

Williamson, in the 78th minute. “I think the ball knuckled and Ted thought it was going to bounce and it went under his hands and legs,” said Camel veteran Ron Krause. Winger Don Balcombe crossed in a high hopeful ball that looped over Lurkins for insurance, 10 minutes later. The Camels improved to 3-3-1, while the Stallions slipped to 4-2-1 in the Capri Insurance League. Wayne Clarke scored twice as RPM Automotive of Rutland grounded the Big O Tire-Turn-Key Controls Ogopogos 4-1 at City Park in Kelowna. “Hats off to the RPM (3-4) soccer club who played a great passing and enthused game against the shorthanded Ogopogos,” said Big O’s Kerry Zubot. “RPM never let up, or sat back, but kept a consistent attack coming, wearing down our defence.”

Knight earns Kal Tire winner Locals Days at The Rise Morning Star Staff

Vernon Kal Tire FC iced Lake Country 4-3 in Kelowna Men’s 35+ Soccer League action Monday night at Beasley Park. The Tiremen (6-1-1) worked the ball up the left side and Ryan Sharp hit a great pass to Jesse Knight, who broke past the defenders and beat the keeper for the winner in the 80th minute. Kal Tire went into a defensive shell the last 10 minutes and held on tight. Vernon controlled the play for most of the first half. Tyler Johnson opened the scoring on a 23-yard free kick, looking everyone off and using a outside curl to one-time it into the net. About 10 minutes later, Kal Tire crossed a ball that was flicked on to the foot of Glenn Allan, who one-timed it for a 2-0 lead. Lake Country responded when all-star James Coball broke through the defence and buried a corker.

Sports Nadeau marvellous for Big O Continued from A29

Leo Nadeau turned in a marvellous showing at central defender, heroically kicking a ball off the goalline at the last second. Later in the game, Nadeau pulled his hamstring, joining a growing list of Ogos on the injury list. Bryan Schenker switched to forward in the second half, creating some awesome chances for the 3-4 Ogopogos. He passed a beauty to a wide open Mark Wasylyk for the 1-1 goal. First-place Penticton United blanked Vernon Bosman Accouting 4-0 at the Barclay’s Premier Leaguelike pitch at Kings Park. Towering defender Brian Johnson used his rock-star hair and great verticle to nod in a Ken Horncastle corner for Penticton’s first goal in the 43rd minute. Horncastle, Kevin Kothlow and Dave Braumgartner added secondhalf tallies for 7-0 United, who owned most of the play. Mike Killick made a handful of stops for the clean sheet. Former Vernonite Mike Vandeleest was flawless as referee. Bosman (2-5) got a strong showing from their shot-blocking back line,

anchored by Dan Rogers and Glenn Verdurmen. Keeper Yogi Kongsdorf made the save of the night by diving to his right on a low scorcher. In other games, Brandt’s Creek played the defensive trap all night to gain a scoreless draw with the highscoring Brown Benefits at Parkinson #9 in Kelowna. It was obvious from the kick-off that Brandt’s game-plan was to just park the bus with 10 players behind the ball at all times. Brandt’s didn’t manage a shot on goal and were content to pack the ir stalwart defence. Browns move to 6-0-1 while Brandts go to 3-2-1. In other games, it was North Country Kickers 3 Pushor Mitchell 0; Rented Mules 2 Cantinas 2; Lake Country 6 Rutland Spirit 0. Lake Country (4-1-2) got two goals each by Sammi Kimpian and Neil McNeil. Andy Barrowcliffe and Graeme Jenkins, both scored on penalty shots. Vernon product Duane Mueller got the shutout.

SportS BriefS Bennison wins provincial 3,000

Hannah Bennison of the VSS Panthers won the provincial junior girls 3,000-metre race at Langley’s McLeod Athletic Park. A Grade 9 athlete running as a junior, Bennison clocked in at nine minutes, 56 seconds. Taryn O’Neill of George Elliot in Winfield was second in 10 minutes, 20 seconds The senior girls’ 3,000 winner finished in 10 minutes, 10 seconds. Trinity Hansma of Len Wood Middle School in Armstrong was fourth in the Grade 8 girls high jump, while Jared Sexsmith of the Charles Bloom Timberwolves in Lumby placed fifth in the junior boys high jump. Tyra Gilbert of the Pleasant Valley Saints in Armstrong placed seventh in the senior women’s 100 hurdles, while Claire Oordt-Bosman of the Seaton Sonics was ninth in the Grade 8 girls 800. Chris Loland of the Kalamalka Lakers finished 10th in the junior boys javelin and 11th in the high jump, while Mack Moody of PVSS was 13th in the senior boys 3,000 and 14th in the 1,500.

Sonics fifth in high school golf

The Seaton Sonics finished fifth in a field of 15 at the B.C. High School Golf Championships at Pheasant Glen in Qualicum. The Sonics went in with with medal hopes and were third, at 311, going into the final 18 holes. For Russell Day and Matt McEachran-Law, it was the finale to their fine high school golf

careers, while Grade 10s Parker Wadsworth and Mac Gourdine were gaining valuable experience. Under sunny skies, Day fired a team-low 76 on opening day, while McEachran-Law, despite stumbling to a 10 on the par-5 9th, went even on the back and posted a 77. Gourdine, at 78, and Christian LaCasse, with 80, rounded things out. The real story in round two was the gritty performance turned in by LaCasse, who had been out most of the year with an ailing back. On the verge of withdrawing minutes prior to his tee time, LaCasse pressed on and was 2-under par after 9. He finished with an inspiring 76, but it wasn’t enough for the Sonics as Day, with 82, Gourdine, at 79, and McEachran-Law, with 78, were unable to get on any kind of roll. Seaton was seven strokes behind third-place Smithers and 25 behind the champion Kwalikum Condors, the host school.

Moderately Confused

Bridge by Phillip Alder WHICH OF THREE PLAYS IS CORRECT? Duffy Daugherty, who was the head football coach at Michigan State University from 1954 to 1972, said, “Three things can happen when you put a ball in the air -- and two of them are bad.” In this deal, East has three possible plays at trick one -- and two of them are bad. South is in three no-trump. West leads the heart eight and declarer covers with dummy’s 10. Which heart should East play? East made a two-heart weak jump overcall, promising a respectable sixcard suit and 5-10 high-card points. South responded with a negative double, indicating four spades. North cue-bid three hearts

to show game-forcing values and to ask South if he had a heart stopper for notrump purposes. South starts with eight top tricks: one heart (given the lead), four diamonds and three clubs. If clubs are 3-3, the contract is safe, but if that suit is not breaking favorably, declarer will have to score a spade trick. If East wins the first trick with his heart ace and returns the suit, South will make his contract. Suppose instead East plays his heart queen. South will get home if -- admittedly a big if -- he does not take the trick. However, East should recall that when an opponent has only one stopper in the suit he is trying to establish, give that trick to

the opponent as quickly as possible. East should signal enthusiastically with his nine. Declarer wins, tries the clubs, cashes his diamonds, and turns to spades. But West grabs the trick, cashes his club jack and leads his second heart to defeat the contract.

EXPERTS

Ask the Mike & Kathy Guthrie

Q: A:

We are considering upgrading our 1970’s home. How can we increase the value and curb appeal of our home?

& FIREPLACES

We suggest using “SIERRA STONE”. It is a decorative natural stone and epoxy overlay. Used for indoor and outdoor applications, it renews concrete, tile, wood, even fiberglass. A large variety of colours will complement any décor. Sierra Stone is 100% porous making it puddle free, resists most salt, oil and gasoline contamination. It’s not affected by freeze and thaw cycles or ultraviolet rays. There’s a 1 year manufacturer’s warranty, and our own 2 year limited warranty with optional extended warranty. It’s simple, easy and inexpensive. Visit our showroom or call us for all the details.

The snow has melted and I know allergy season is coming. Every year I get congested, my nose is running and I have runny and itchy eyes. Is there anything that I can do to treat my seasonal allergies naturally? Yes, there are many natural health products that can help to decrease your allergic and inflammatory response to the pollen, mold and pets. Vitamin C and citrus bioflavonoids can stabilize the capillaries and help to minimize the swelling and inflammation in the mucous membranes of the nose. Quercetin is an example of a particularly potent bioflavonoid that helps to prevent the release of histamine. This can reduce the allergic symptoms and the amount of anti-histamines you need to take. There are homeopathic medicines available from Naturopathic Physicians and homeopaths that can help with symptom relief and can be taken orally or in the form of nasal sprays. You can be desensitized with drops under the tongue called sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) which can be taken daily throughout the year or used before allergy season to reduce symptoms. This type of therapy does require a skin test to determine which pollen type(s) you are reacting to.

Q: A:

Why Health Care Directives?

You should have a Health Care Directive to alert your physician and family to the kind of health care you desire when you are nearing the end of your life or are otherwise ill and are unable to speak for yourself. Imagine having your kids squabble about which medical treatment a parent should receive at the end of their life. If you leave clear instructions, everyone will know what to do when that time comes. There are essentially three kinds of Health Care Directives. A Living Will, an Advanced Health Care Directive and a Representation Agreement. The one you require can be custom tailored to fit your particular circumstances. There is a lot of confusion about these Directives. Some groups in town have had speakers who have made significant errors in their speeches about these documents. Speak to someone who knows. At Laarakker Law, Wills and Estate Planning is not just something we do; it is something we specialize in. After all, the legacy you leave behind is more important than what you leave behind.

Q: A:

What is radon and how do I test for it?

Radon is an invisible, odorless, tasteless gas that occurs naturally in the earth’s crust. It is a product of the decay of uranium. The radon gas itself is not a problem but its decay products are. These radioactive products can attach themselves to the lung tissue when radon gas is inhaled - this can cause lung cancer. The risk is higher with greater exposure, & the effects are long term rather than immediate. Radon which escapes into the air is not a problem as it is quickly diluted. However, when radon becomes trapped in a home it can rise to levels of concern, especially during the winter months when ventilation is at a minimum. Radon can enter a home through cracks in basement floors and walls, openings around pipes or other penetrations in the basement walls and floors. It can also enter through exposed earth in crawlspaces and basements. There are several ways to test for radon gas. A charcoal canister can be used to absorb radon from the air; there are filtering systems where air is pumped through a filter, trapping radon particles. There are grab-sample testers which allow for a quick air sample. These all require the use of a lab to analyze the samples. There is also a radon detector that is similar to a smoke or CO detector that can measure radon levels in the home. Since radon levels can vary at different times of the day & seasons of the year, longer testing times are better. Winter testing is more reliable than summer testing. If you find that there are high levels of radon in your home there a number of different ways to deal with it. For more information contact me or look for it on the Health Canada website or the CMHC website.

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.

We are so excited as we have just been approved to buy our First Home! My husband wants to buy a new truck right away and I am nervous, is this a good idea or should we wait?

Congratulations on your new home purchase! I would not recommend that you make any large purchases prior to your moving date, especially if you plan on financing the purchase of a new truck. You have been approved for the house mortgage based upon your current income and current payment obligations, if you take on any new payments there is a strong chance that your mortgage approval may be cancelled. You should always wait until after your move in date to ensure that you can adjust to the new house payment and the cost of owning a home to settle in. If your Husband still wants to buy a vehicle, I would recommend that you contact the Lender who provided your approval, to ensure they are aware of your new payment and to make sure that you can still afford to proceed with the new home purchase. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to call on us. E&O/OAC
