Final photo a milestone for grads I
t was one of principal Don Balcombe’s last chances to shout – in a nice way – at Kalamalka Secondary School’s Class of 2014. There was Balcombe, in long sleeve green dress shirt and sunglasses, standing atop a school district truck beside the official photographer, giving instructions through a megaphone to the 106 graduates as the official graduating photo was conducted Thursday in the mid-day sun and wind at the Kalamalka Lake Lookout. “Smile, smile, smile,” instructed Balcombe. “OK, here we go, photo in three, two, one.” When it came time for the grads to remove their caps and toss them into the air for that always popular photo,
Balcombe was again directing, er, grad traffic. “The wind is blowing so we don’t want to throw the hats up into the air and have them blow over the embankment,” said Balcombe. “You’re going to take the hats and toss them forward.” Asked what is easier, graduating or listening to Mr. Balcombe’s directions, Jenny Wambold – who was, literally, front and centre in the front row for the grad picture – laughed heartily. “Graduating,” smiled Wambold, whose five-year run at Kal came to an end with graduation. She is moving on to Okanagan College in Kelowna with plans to become a therapist assistant, and to work in a hospital. Thursday’s photo was bittersweet for Wambold. “It’s a really special day as I finally

get to graduate and move on in life,” she said. “At the same time, I’m going to miss all of my friends but I know I’ll make new friends as well.” A handful of parents and grandparents were at the lookout to snap their own photos. Tracy Elliott, joined by her mom, Elsie Stockley from Edmonton, was there to watch her son, Taylor, the first of her two kids to graduate. “It’s been a nice day so far, coming here and seeing their pictures,” said Elliott. “We’re just getting started.” Like for most parents, graduation is a happy and sad time. Taylor is leaving the Elliott home to study computer science in the fall at Queen’s University in Kingston, Ont. “This day came quick,” said Tracy. “He’s really been looking forward to it.”

‘Worst roads’ on MLA’s radar
Trail Open

Latest suspicious blaze targets sheriff’s car RICHARD ROLKE Morning Star Staff
The RCMP want to speak to a person who may have been present at Vernon’s latest suspicious fire. A surveillance photo of an individual has been released after someone set garbage ablaze under a sheriff ’s vehicle at the courthouse Thursday at about 10:30 p.m. Police were able to speak to witnesses in the area about the fire. “Witnesses said that a male wearing a grey hoody, black hat and riding a bike was noticed riding away from the courthouse a short time before the fire was noticed,” said Gord Molendyk, RCMP spokesperson. Besides the RCMP, firefighters were on scene Thursday. “Whether it was someone playing a
prank, it’s difficult to know,” said Jack Blair, Vernon deputy fire chief. “The RCMP are treating it very seriously.” RCMP officers were able to extinguish the fire before any major damage was done to the vehicle. This is the 16th suspicious fire in Greater Vernon and Spallumcheen in about the last month. It’s not known if the fires are linked. Beyond the threat to property and lives, there is a concern that the suspicious fires are diverting firefighting resources. “They are very time-consuming incidents,” said Blair. Anyone with information about the fire at the courthouse is asked to call the Vernon RCMP at 250-545-7171, or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
A local politician insists there is a need to address realities and perceptions about five North Okanagan roads being labelled the worst in B.C. In the B.C. Automobile Association’s Worst Roads survey, participants put Silver Star Road in first place, while sections of Westside Road were second, fourth and ninth. Cosens Bay Road placed third. “I will be talking to the transportation minister this week about the issue,” said Eric Foster, VernonMonashee MLA. Except for a small portion of Eric Foster Cosens Bay Road, all of the roads are in the electoral areas and fall under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Transportation. Foster will also have discussions with the MLAs who represent some of the roads — Greg Kyllo in Shuswap and Christy Clark in Westside-Kelowna. While Foster says there is a need to continue with surface upgrades to North Okanagan roads, there are some challenges. “There are pressures across the province and a limited budget,” he said. “We try and keep all roads up to a certain standard for safety.” Mike Macnabb, BX-Silver Star director, isn’t sure the BAA survey actually helps move road improvements along. “I understand folks are upset about problems but we’re keeping pressure on the ministry,” he said of ongoing lobbying from the Regional District of North Okanagan. Macnabb questions how the survey is compiled and believes votes may be based on an emotional response more than actual knowledge of road conditions. “Everyone could nominate every road in B.C. as the worst so it makes no sense,” he said. “What makes it the worst, the width, the pavement? You have to look at it analytically.”

Cultural process moves ahead richard rolke Morning Star Staff
The long road towards Greater Vernon’s cultural vision is now being navigated. Elected officials met Thursday with the consultants working on the cultural plan while discussions were also held with cultural stakeholders. “The plan will be an ongoing process Tannis Nelson throughout the year,” said Tannis Nelson, the Regional District of North Okanagan’s community development co-ordinator. “The intention is this is a community document. It will put government in tune with the broader community vision.” Among the issues discussed Thursday
was the cost involved in cultural services. “How do we make these facilities available without burdening taxpayers?” said director Maria Besso. Beyond establishing the needs of the various cultural groups, director Gyula Kiss insists that residents must be heard from. “We need to figure out what the people paying the bill want,” he said. However, consultant Kari Huhtala pointed out that a key role to a master plan will be to identify partnerships and other funding sources. “It’s not necessarily about more tax money,” he said. When the politicians were asked about prospective challenges when establishing a cultural plan, there were some common themes. “Taxpayer fatigue came up in a number of areas. There’s the whole referendum
question,” said consultant Colette Parsons of voters heading to the polls for water upgrades, sports facilities and cultural projects. “There also appears to be a sense of competition among the cultural groups and how we bring them under one tent.” How to implement the 10-year plan was also discussed. “There needs to be (political) ownership and buy-in,” said director Doug Dirk. “Ownership needs to be as wide as possible. The municipal councils need to be involved.” Juliette Cunningham, Greater Vernon Advisory Committee chairperson, is pushing for a plan that can meet the community’s needs even when the politicians involved change. “I don’t want motherhood statements and lip-service. I want something concrete,” she said.
Chamber rallies behind rail trail concept Morning Star Staff
Pressure is growing to preserve a former rail corridor for recreational activities. The Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce board has unanimously passed a motion asking the federal, provincial and local governments to take the necessary steps required to ensure the CN route from Coldstream to Kelowna
is preserved as public trail. “The closure of the railway harmed many businesses along the corridor. The best alternative for our economy is the creation of a regional trail,” said Adrian Johnson, GVCC president. “The clock is ticking. There is less than four months for government to act before CN simply
divides up the property and sells it off bit by bit. That would ultimately see a great opportunity pass us by.” The Okanagan Rail Trail Initiative believes a public corridor could attract 600,000 users and generate $6.7 million in spending by tourists by the fifth year. “Our chamber would like to see a collaborative effort to establish a
trail that would create business opportunities throughout the region,” said Dan Rogers, GVCC general manager. The Greater Vernon chamber will reach out to other chambers in the region to secure their support for this initiative and to urge interested parties to come together to establish a long term plan for converting the rail line

Big win for credit union staff roger knox Morning Star Staff
Kathy Weaving and Amy Gillies were positive their VantageOne Credit Union lottery group was going to be miffed. In charge of the financial institution’s monthly lottery pool since 1996, Weaving and Gillies broke from the norm of buying Lotto Max, Lotto 649, B.C. 49 and the extra tickets and decided to take $25 and buy scratch tickets. Without the group’s knowledge. On the first of two Monday coffee breaks, Weaving scratched two of the tickets. Nothing. “The first two were duds and Amy kept saying, ‘Ohhhh they’re going to kill us, they’re going to kill us,’” said Weaving. The lives of the two women based out of the main VantageOne branch in downtown Vernon – both celebrating their 20th anniversaries with the company this year – were spared. During the afternoon coffee break, Gillies scratched the other tickets and found one – a Cash Multiplier ticket – showing the group had won $100,000. “She scratched the first one and said words I can’t repeat,” laughed Weaving. Added Gillies: “On the second one, I thought it was $1,000. Then I took the rest off and I was like, ‘Oh my God!’ Could this be real? I was reading the back of the ticket to make sure I understood the rules.”
A total of 41 employees take home about $2,400 each from Weaving and Gillies’ bold move. The group lottery pool is open to all VantangeOne employees at all branches. Weaving sends out an e-mail in November every year inviting staff to opt in or opt out of the pool. “We’ve now had people asking to join our group since the win,” said Gillies. Said Weaving: “People have been supportive and excited for us, or kicking themselves for not joining.” In the nearly 18 years the ladies have been doing the lottery, the biggest win for them has been about $1,000. “Last year, I think our payout was about $10,” joked Gillies. The winning ticket was bought in Vernon across the street from the downtown VantageOne branch at the Chevron Town Pantry on 32nd Street, sold to the ladies by Mel Kilcup – the biggest lottery winning ticket he’s ever sold. “We go all over the place to buy tickets,” said Gillies. “If we’re going to Vancouver, we’ll stop at the little store in Falkland, or Kamloops or Merritt. We’ve gone to Spokane and have stopped in Beaverdell and Rock Creek. We stop at little stores thinking maybe our odds will be better.” Gillies believes there’s more winning in store for the group. “The big one is coming,” she smiled. “We are so confident of it.”

THE TERRY FOX RUN for CANCER RESEARCH
Brew runs for Spallumcheen mayor roger knox Morning Star Staff
A familiar name wants to be mayor of Spallumcheen come November. Former three-term councillor Dave Brew has announced he will run for mayor in the November election. Brew, who served three terms as a councillor in the township, lost the 2011 mayoral election to fellow councillor Janice Brown by
“Anybody should be able to ask a question.” — Dave Brew
slightly more than 100 votes. While Brew had been contemplating a potential return to political life, two things, he said, made him con-
firm his decision. “The taxation on Class 9 farm tax; the province gave farmers a big break and Spallumcheen took it all away,” said Brew,
referring to the township bylaw adopted this year that sees the farm class rate nearly double from 2013. The township said the increase in the rate on farm class was to counteract the effects of provincial Bill 8, introduced in 2013, in which farmers enjoyed $120,000 of tax relief in 2013 that everybody else paid for. The other thing that “really aggravated”
Anderson seeks Conservative nod Morning Star Staff
The race to represent the Conservatives in Ottawa is growing. Vernon resident Scott Anderson announced Friday that he is seeking the nomination for Conservative candidate for OkanaganShuswap in the 2015 federal election. “This seat is considered to be a safe seat for the federal Conservatives,” said Anderson. “Whether that’s true or not, Scott Anderson it means that competition for the Conservative candidacy will be strong. It’s crucial that the candidate who is ultimately chosen be a true conservative with the credentials to prove it.” Besides Anderson, the other declared candidates are Lumby’s Janet Green and Mel Arnold, from
Salmon Arm. MP Colin Mayes has indicated that he will not seek re-election. Anderson believes it’s important to represent everyone in the riding, from the Shuswap to the North Okanagan “I intend to build a broad coalition of people from across the region and seek input from everyone no matter where they live in the riding,” he said. Anderson owns a corporate communications business and small trucking firm, and he is a commissioned officer in the Canadian Forces Reserves. He is a member of the Silver Star Rotary Club, the Greater Vernon Chamber of Commerce’s policy committee and Toastmasters. He’s been a campaign manager in two federal elections and an assistant for a Reform MP. “Now it’s time to put that experience to work for the people of the North Okanagan, and I ask them to place their trust in me,” said Anderson. It’s expected a candidate will be selected Oct. 4.
Brew was his claim that council was “taking away people’s freedom of speech” in removing the question period segment at the end of regular meetings until after the November election. “Anybody should be able to ask a question about anything that’s developed during that particular session,” said Brew. “That’s never been done before.” Brown told The Morning Star in

The father of all days
ome thoughts and musings on the topic surrounding what happens to be this very day on the calendar, in case you forgot.... ....First of all, Happy Father’s Day. One of my favourite days of the year, although don’t tell the two people whose existence helped make it a reality because they might begin to think they’re special or something. Plus don’t ever tell them they’re two of my proudest accomplishments in life, so far. And, besides, I’ve got big plans for the second half of my life, so who knows where they’ll rank then and..... So if you’re looking for a perfect way to celebrate the occasion, depending on when you actually get around to reading this, Glenn Mitchell there may still be time to participate in the 15th annual Do it for Dad Run/Walk at Coldstream Ranch. Registration begins at 8:30 this morning and the run/walk begins at 9:30 and it’s a beautiful trip through the countryside. I know because I’ve done it most years but I’m not able to make it this year due to another commitment.

Can there be anything more Canadian than camping? Getting out into the great outdoors, setting up camp and enjoying the solitude just seems like a long thread in the fabric of our culture. It’s a pastime many people grew up with. Families did it together and often the kids were enrolled in either Boy Scouts or Girl Guides, where camping skills were routinely taught and practised. The enjoyment of the outdoors, and how you can survive comfortably in it, has been passed down from generation to generation. However, more and more people are filling Canadian cities and to a certain degree, going camping might not have the same appeal as it once had. Locally, we have many provincial parks close by for people who want to give camping a try, but not venture far from home. Taking in nature from afar deprives a person of a closer connection with the outdoors and the opportunity to decompress and disconnect from the world for a short time. There can be nothing more rewarding to be out of cell range and left to your own skills and know-how to survive in the wild — even if that wild is a groomed provincial campsite that you can drive into. It’s true that for some people, disconnection from the world leaves them feeling nervous, vulnerable or simply cut off from their community. That distance can be enough to discourage some from taking the step into the great outdoors. But like many things that are unfamiliar, they just need to be practised. Soon, packing up for a camping trip will become, if not second nature, then at least less of a burden, with thoughts of the relaxation ahead motivating and inspiring you. Black Press

Sport deserves better from city
H
ow would you feel if I told you that Canadian football leagues and hockey leagues would be banned from Vernon? Well, if you think that is over the top and would never be possible to accomplish locally, then you will understand the reaction I had when mixed martial arts was announced to be all but banished from our land. As a 22-year-old Nintendo Nerd whose only source of exercise is long-distance running, swimming, and tanning, I am the last person pegged to be a MMA fan. But since researching the sport and analyzing it three years ago while attending UBCO, I was fascinated that this had become the fourth most popular sport in our nation. Sadly, it is also the most misunderstood sport in our society. The current reasoning for banning the sport, much like the reasons given by people who either support or oppose the construction of the sports complex by Okanagan College, is fragile at best. For some reason, we are very close minded when it comes to sports issues. As someone who quit baseball when he was 10 and never played an organized sport again, my biggest concern with banning MMA is that the logic given for this decision is not properly aligned. For instance, the main point highlighted recently is because of "confidential information supplied to us." If a politician, prosecutor, or anyone had said that we would all find it to be absurd. "Oh, your
argument for this claim is it is a secret? Well, I cannot argue that. I concede." I know MMA is a sport that hooked people into it back in 2005 to 2009. Many of us are between the ages of 20 to 40. In a retirement community such as Vernon, our voices are likely not considered relevant to the public. We don't vote, we are apathetic, and many of us still live with our parents. I know I am not alone there. MMA is not about injuring your opponent. The A stands for arts. These are people who find structure, discipline, inner peace, selfesteem, and confidence from practicing this sport. They showcase their skills and unless the person is a total jerk, they respect their oppo-
Thank you From April 25 to 27, the Canadian Federation of University Women held its provincial annual conference in Vernon which was attended by women from 20 chapters across B.C. Many Vernon and surrounding area businesses were approached to contribute items to the silent auction, the proceeds of which went to education scholarships for women pursuing post-graduate
nents infinitely. Canadian football and hockey have equally exhausting training rituals. In hockey, the goal is not to injure your opponent, but yet nobody is banning hockey for those silly fights every period that have nothing to do with the sport itself. In an elderly community, Canada's hockey grants senseless violence a free pass. If the referee calls a fight to be finished in MMA, and a fighter punching the opponent post-fight, that fighter is banned from the promotion for life. They are not stuck in the penalty box for five minutes as the crowd cheers for their circus act. And the people who are banning this sport sound like the only MMA they have watched is UFC Ultimate
research. Thanks to the generous response of these businesses, the silent auction was a resounding success. I was involved directly in approaching businesses and was very pleased with the generosity shown, especially when they must be constantly bombarded for donations. I have recently moved to Vernon and this com-
Knockouts Volume 1. Every fight does not end with a broken cornea or a fractured leg. Many of these fights are holding each other against the fence or holding their opponent on the ground for three rounds with only a few scratches in the process. These fighters are typically cleared and can return for another bout within two if they wish. But please. Mixed Martial Artists are not members of Raul Julia's Shadaloo Empire from Street Fighter: The Movie, nor are they blood thirsty creatures. These are individuals whose lives have been saved due to practicing MMA. If you think MMA fighters are getting too hurt in local events, then you need referees who are smart enough to stop a fight earlier or a doctor who is willing to make the call to stop the fight. Fans like myself support the longevity of the fighter. We are rarely upset by referee or doctor's stoppages. Especially in local events where 99% of these fighters will never make it anywhere near the UFC. Please do not make this another subject of sporting ridicule in the sequel to Baseketball. I need to know that people who make decisions locally on my behalf are putting thought and care into what they do rather than potentially being manipulated by a wellrespected minority who may be miseducated on their opinions. Thank you for putting up with the counter-points of a 22 year old anime lover. Logan Saunders

Fruit discussion focuses on water
LIBERTY HOUSE WATCH

Morning Star Staff
Serving Vernon & area for the past 8 years!
The cost of water and how much is needed is dominating discussions between local politicians and farmers. The B.C. Fruit Growers Association presented to Vernon and Coldstream councils Monday, and while the BCFGA had several topics of concern, civic leaders were focused on water. “When we’re building for water capacity, four-fifths of what we’re building for is agricultural use,” said Rob Sawatzky, Vernon mayor. In November, Greater Vernon residents will be asked to borrow up to $70 million for the master water plan, which includes filtration of the Duteau Creek treatment plant.

“Meeting today’s standards is expensive.” — Rob Sawatzky
Much of that water goes to farm uses because agricultural and domestic water have not been fully separated. “Meeting today’s (health) standards is expensive,” said Sawatzky. The BCFGA was asked if it encourages its members to follow best practices for irrigation and water conservation. “Agriculture has been making more efficient use of water and will continue to do so as time goes on,” said Glen Lucas, BCFGA general
manager. In Coldstream, it was pointed out that 57 per cent of the land base is in the Agricultural Land Reserve and of the properties in the ALR, 53 per cent of the parcels do not have farm status. That has had implications for water rates within Greater Vernon. “We’re in a little bit of a crisis,” said Maria Besso, a Coldstream councillor. Besso believes there is a need to consider the needs of local farmers as a way of
ensuring food security and bolstering the economy. “It’s going to be important for our farmers to have access to agricultural water,” she said. Each year, the tree fruit sector in the Okanagan has farm gate sales of $74.5 million and a packed value of $160.5 million. It generates $552 million in economic activity. The goal is to take unproductive land in the ALR and produce fruit crops that can be exported to markets around the world. “There’s a bright future for our industry,” said Fred Steele, BCFGA president. Other issues discussed included farm labour housing and changes to the Agricultural Land Reserve.

An Enderby student has been recognized for his passion for the trades. Jacob Wall, of A.L. Fortune Secondary School, captured the silver medal at the national Skills Canada competition in Toronto. “During the competition I had several people who were involved in the event coming over and telling me what a great person Jacob is,” said Michelle Hughes, A.L. Fortune career counsellor. “He just showed great character.” Wall competed in the automotive collision repair division, which took place over two days at Skills Canada. He is currently taking the Autobody ACE IT program offered by the North OkanaganShuswap School District through Vancouver Community College and was recently apprenticed by Salmon Arm Frame and Body Shop. He plans on furthering his education during Grade 12 by taking level two at Okanagan College. Hughes says the competition was very close and the marks had to be recounted before it was determined that Kevin Disterhoff, the representative from Manitoba, had just edged out Wall.

Coldstream museum pitched Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff
Efforts are underway to honour Coldstream’s heritage. A group of residents are investigating the potential of starting a small museum and have eyed the Sovereign house as host. “It would be the ideal location for artifacts,” said Sharon Lawrence, one of the residents interested in preserving local history. The group recently met with Ron Candy, curator at the Greater Vernon Museum and Archives, about the potential of opening a satellite museum. They also recently urged Coldstream council to reserve some space in the Sovereign house for a museum. “There is room, it’s huge,” said Lawrence, adding the house also holds a great deal of history.

Ron Candy, Greater Vernon Museum and Archives curator (second from right), meets with some Coldstream residents interested in setting up a satellite museum at the Sovereign house. They do not propose to take over the entire house, just the front of it, which would allow a caretaker to live in the home. But along with working out details with the
district, starting up a museum is going to take some time. “I’m not asking that we establish a museum tomorrow,” said Lawrence. “We don’t even have
any stuff.” Coun. Maria Besso also realizes that such a venture could take time, as history has shown. “The model was floated for this seven years ago at Fintry,” said Besso.

Now that spring has sprung, the Coldstream Market is moving outdoors. The Friday farmers’ market, which is year-round 2:30 to 6 p.m. at the Coldstream Women’s Institute hall, is outside for the spring/summer season at the Kalamalka Road location. “People can come on a Friday evening and bring their basket and there will be enough products to fill it up and they can go over to the park or the beach and enjoy it,” said Anita Fletcher, organizer. The market will also be showcasing some local musicians outside on the lawns in the summer months. Among the local vendors boasting a variety of Bee Safe products, from fruits and vegetables to cheese, meats, breads plus other goodies, are some youthful faces. Among the 20 to 30 vendors who come out (depending on the season) are four young agrarians. And just like the rest, they come to the market to earn a living – it’s not just a hobby. To celebrate the work agrarians do to bring local products to the table, 2014 has been named International Year of the Family Farm. And what better way to celebrate and support

In fact, in a double blind study published in Journal of the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society, 90%of patients suffering from heel and arch pain showed significant improvements with Shockwave. Furthermore, Shockwave Therapy (developed to break up kidney stones) has success rates of between 77%-91% in the treatment of other soft tissue conditions. Results are often experienced within a couple of visits and the treatment is covered by many insurance companies.

Plantar Fasciitis is an overuse injury affecting the fibrous tissue that forms the arch. Heel spurs can form when the fascia tears at the heel attachment and results in pain in the center of the heel. Achilles Tendonitis is irritation of the Achilles where the calf muscle meets the heel and can result in pain in the calf, the Achilles, or the back of the heel. The inflammation from overuse leads to pain as well as deposits of scar tissue, further inflaming the area each time the Achilles or plantar fascia are used.

Gouchee signs with SFU Clan Morning Star Staff/SFU Athletics
Vernon’s Victor Gouchee once volunteered to play goal as a newbie in Pee Wee House hockey. He was incredible, earning MVP and leading his team to the North Okanagan championship. He’s played soccer longer and is also a natural in net with acrobatics and quick reflexes. Gouchee, who graduates from Fulton Secondary next Friday, has signed to play for the Simon Fraser University Clan next season. He just finished a Rep season with the Thompson Okanagan under-18 team in the B.C. Soccer Premier League. He was coached by James Thompson. “I was looking at UVic (Victoria Vikings) and the University of Windsor (Lancers), but once SFU talked to me, I made up my mind. They were one of my top choices,” he told The Morning Star. He receives a $500 scholarship to start as he takes general studies. That number doubles depending on how much he plays. “Victor is a big body that has a lot of the intangibles that you cannot teach a goalkeeper,” said SFU head coach Alan Koch. “He has good size and is a physical presence in goal. He has come a long way as a goalkeeper and I am excited to see how far he can push himself under coach (Clint)
Schneider’s tutelage. He adds to a list of great players to come from the interior to SFU, including in recent times, Carson Gill and Joel Malouf.” Gouchee is a veteran of two B.C. trials and has trained at the Sporting Lisbon Academy in Portugal. “I was attracted to SFU because of the great soccer program,” said Gouchee. “Playing in the NCAA has always been a goal and being able to stay in Canada is a great factor as well. Being from a small town, I wanted to live in a city atmosphere as well.

Shamrocks pull daily double in boxla play Morning Star Staff
The Armstrong Shamrocks pulled the daily double in lacrosse play Friday night. The Irish outlasted the host Kamloops Rattlers 8-6 in Okanagan Senior Lacrosse League action at Memorial Arena, while the Junior B Shamrocks grounded the South Okanagan Flames 14-11 at Nor-Val Sports Centre. “It was a good bounce back game for us,” said senior Shamrock GM and goalie Chad Pieper. “We got the lead a minute into the game and kept it the whole game. The guys played a lot more disciplined than a week ago. Kas Boudreau ran another marathon all night and was rewarded with a couple of goals.” The Rocks sit atop the three-team loop at 5-2, while the Rattlers dipped to 1-6. Armstrong lost 12-7 to the secondplace Kelowna Raiders last Friday. Jarrett Medhurst continued his league-leading scoring
pace with two goals as did former Senior A Nanaimo Timbermen Steve Clark. Medhurst has rang up 13 goals and 22 points in five games, three points ahead of Kelowna’s Luke Bailey. Carston Schlaak and Kriss Yargeau supplied singles for the Rocks, who got two helpers from ageless captain Pat Nelson and Kyle Versteeg. Pieper made 53 saves and leads the league with a 7.6 goals against average. Riley Donahue pocketed 2+1 for the Rattlers, while A.J. Lockwood provided his team-high eighth and ninth snipes of the season. Nathan Woldum and Gavin McIntosh collected singles. Armstrong enjoyed period leads of 2-1 and 5-4. The Rocks took eight of 13 minor penalties. Mike Smith recorded 50 stops for Kamloops. The Rocks entertained the Raiders Saturday night while holding a special reunion of former Shamrocks and Vernon
Tigers from the 1950s and present day. In the Junior B tilt, the Rocks parlayed four goals from Colby Erickson and 3+1 from Cole MacFarlane into their fourth victory in 11 starts. Keith Minnis added 2+1 for Armstrong, while Austin Pugh had 1+3 and Sam Hanley earned 1+2. Brody Berg, Ben Painter and Austin Williamson also scored in support of Noah Bumstead (46 saves). Marlon Forrest and Logan Mostat each chipped in with two helpers as the Rocks held period leads of 3-2 and 11-8. Mitch Brodt sparked the Flames (2-7) with 3+2, while Kaid McLeod collected 2+2 and Tanner Thompson also bagged a deuce. Armstrong took eight minors, a game misonduct to Erickson and a major to Minnis. The Flames received six minors. Armstrong hosts last-place Kelowna Wednesday night.

NBA shooting coach Dave Love (right) instructs Isaac Olson during The Love of the Game basketball shooting camp at Fulton Secondary School.
Diane Neudorf celebrated the start of World Cup 2014 by scoring three times as OTC/Sunterra Custom Homes Sistas stopped The Mix 4-1 Thursday night at Marshall Field #5. Nicole Williams added a single and Cassandra Otto drew three assists in the North Okanagan Women’s Soccer Association Division 2 game. The Sistas welcomed back Tania Wirachowsky just five-and-a-half weeks after having a baby girl. Wirachowky didn’t miss a beat and helped set up Neudorf ’s third tally. Sistas improved to 5-1, while The Mix dipped to 2-5. The OMG Chick Kickers and Capri Insurance Brew Crew drew 1-1 at Marshall #1, while the Green Rockets grounded Centreline Attack 5-1 at Marshall #2. Janelle Woods scored in the first half for the Kickers (0-7-1), while Shelinda Morin of the Crew (4-2-1) levelled the score in the second half. The Kickers gave a big thanks to referee Bruce Townsend and linesmen Sam Sully and Jenna Duke. Jodi Hawthorne played a strong game for Centreline, scoring the only goal for head coach Greg Thalheimer. Peggy Schepp was also stellar, while keeper Azra Cawley held steady in the net for the second half, confidently cutting off balls that surely would have resulted in more goals. In Okanagan Men’s 55+ League play, Wolfgang Bopp pulled the hat trick as the Silver Stars slammed Kelowna #1 7-1.

The first-place Ice Cold Pitches (10-0) gutted the White House Gators 19-7 in the semifinals Wednesday night at Kin Park. The Pitches hit the ball well and played great defence. Jenny Gartner cranked a dinger and Tracy Bell and Taylor Weixl each went 4-for-4. Jacqui Rivard added a triple and Shaina McGiverin went 3-for-3. Tiffany Disher and Lynn Gregoire both rapped a pair of singles and a double with one RBI for the Gators. Jayden Horochuck drove in two runs on two hits, while Melissa Locke was 2-for-3 with one ribbie and Kate Carter also went 2-for-3. The Ice Cold Pitches slipped past Jock’s Dynamite 14-13 earlier Wednesday night. Gartner and Krista Horton each went 3-for-3. The Pitches battle the winner of the GatorsLumby Ted Luszcz Bulldozing Dozers in next Wednesday’s championship at 7:15 p.m. The Gators play the Dozers at 6 p.m. If the unde-
feated Ice Cold Pitches lose, a second game will be played the following Wednesday night. The Dozers proved to coach Jon Kineshanko to never count them out as they plowed over the Devils and Dynamite in a pair of playoff action wins Wednesday night with only nine players on the field. Tara Young was 3-for-4 with a triple and three RBI as the Dozers dusted off the Devils 21-4. Wendy Sherman was 4-for-4 with one ribbie, while shortstop Tanis Ricketts was 4-for-6 with 2 RBI to help the Dozers. Traci Kenney rapped a double, two singles and one RBI, while Michelle Mulholland drove in one run with two hits. The Dozers toppled the Nitros 14-8 in their nightcap with Tracy Carey supplying four hits, including a double, and two RBI. Kas O’Neil was 4-for-5 with 2 RBI, while pitcher Sherry Kineshanko was 4-for-5 with a run-scoring triple and Vanessa Bostock stroked two doubles and a single. Young, Bostock and O’Neill covered a lot of ground on the open outfield. There are five teams in the women’s league.
Marauders lose 13-7 Morning Star Staff
Vernon #3 stopped the Mertion Excavating Marauders 13-7 in Pee Wee baseball action at Creekside Park. Hannah Brown made a great catch at third, tagging out Kayla Riggs of the Marauders. Pitchers Katie Finlayson, Gordon Harmon and Levi Lee struggled in the first three innings, but pushed through strong with Finlayson recording her first strikeout. Jacob Green and Cole Hutchison teamed up to make some close plays at first base, while catchers Logan Shillington and Gordon Harmon showed great hustle and focus.
Bopp beat keeper Chris Turbit with a 20-yard corker, top shelf, and fooled him with a cheeky chip as the Stars improved to 6-1-1. Mahmoud Abdel-Nader (2), Keith Chancellor and Dick Markin completed the Stars’ offence. Dave Wharton replied for Kelowna with a late tally. The Lake Country Lakers got two goals from Mike Ley in a 4-3 win over Vernon Kal Tire at Beasley Park. Paul Charlton and Fred Lauresen added singles for the Lakers, who grabbed a quick 2-0 lead with the tiremen short a player. Ted Sheehan and Denis Chabot, both on stellar headers, and Mark DeVolder answered for the tiremen (3-4-1). Bob Fleming crossed from the right corner on Chabot’s header and ran miles down the flank to take the Red Robin Man of the Match. Terry Lowe and Al Bensmiller shared the Kal Tire goalkeeping.

World Cup 2014 forecasts.....
C Milan and Italy striker Mario Balotelli took some time off from World Cup preparations to propose to his gorgeous girlfriend Fanny Neguesha. Stay away from betting any Euros on the Italians. It’s obvious Balotelli is not focused on the World Cup. Go with Brazil instead. Please read on for other choices from various soccer fanatics around town.... Jim Mottus: Brazil – home team, BETWEEN THE LINES big pressure on them Kevin Mitchell but they will come through with all their talent. Neymar and the other big names will come to play and bring the cup home. Longshot: England – Better team than some think. Lots of talent just have not brought it together for a long time. Maybe with Hodgson at the wheel and a few good breaks... Cayleigh Graham: I think Brazil is going to win because they’re finally at home and most teams have their best potential at home games. Also, Brazil is a tougher team in every World Cup and brings competition for the opponent; they aren’t an easy win for another team. I think it’s their turn to win it and have their revenge. My sleeper pick is Chile. Ron Krause: Of course I’m picking Germany (defeating Argentina). They have
the depth, confidence and momentum from not losing any of their qualifiers. My darkhorse pick is Belgium. Rodney Goodchild: I think Argentina will win. It is certainly not a creative choice, but I think the accurate one. They have a player in Lionel Messi who, is head and shoulders in quality above the rest of the world. His is also supported with an all-star cast of Aguero, Higuain, Di Maria and Zabaleta. Brazil will be the favourites, and quite rightly so, but the weight of expectation from a nation could be their downfall. Sleeper is Colombia. When a team loses their star player (Falcao to injury in Colombia’s case), they have a tendency to dig in a little deeper. Steve Coombs: Sentimentally, young England will do better than expected. Germany looked good at the last World Cup on home turf but have not done well since. So Brazil, at home, gets the nod for me with Belgium as the surprise team as long as they don’t get any nocks or injuries. Andrea Zubot: Brazil beats either Argentina or Germany. Sleeper: Colombia could do really well in their draw, and yet another good jersey. Germany looks strong although there is not enough colour in their jersey. The Netherlands have the best coloured jersey. Bright orange, nice and easy to see anywhere on the field. Word is Italy is getting old, but I say with age comes wisdom, but maybe some recklessness with their youth? The “Messi” look is in with Argentina. I’ve always liked their jerseys even though they’re not bright colours. Bill Graham: Argentina will win GREAT STAY & PLAY PACKAGES AVAILABLE it; this is going to be a non-defensive “Exceeding Expectations” World Cup with loads of goals, and they have the most potent offence.

ing a fairly new 5-3-2 formation style that will be working great for them. All that being said, never rule out the Germans. Steve Fitzpatrick: Getting out of the Group stages is the first of many obstacles that make the World Cup such a beauty to watch. Luck plays a huge part as any Italian fan will attest as Italy have time and again started off slow in the World Cup, barely scraping through the group stages before mounting a real challenge. They have won the trophy a total four times, but this time around Italy will not get out of their group. It’s also a fact that no European team has won the World Cup in South America. The team with the most talent, namely Lionel Messi and Sergio Aquero, will deliver this year for Argentina. Sleeper: England. I hear they have been working on their penalty taking.

Mobile juicer making the rounds Morning Star Staff
North Okanagan orchardists have an opportunity to salvage some profit from the damage caused by a recent hail storm. “It’s disastrous for the growers, but not all is lost. The imperfect fruit still growing on the trees can be turned into juice,” said Kristen Trovato, of Mobile Juicing. “For instance, the apples that have superficial damage from the hail will grow imperfectly, but will still make delicious juice. And we do it right on site at the orchard.” For Melissa Dobernigg the impact of the hail is felt on their thirdgeneration farm in the BX. The plan is to make substantially more juice this year. “This year, the hail was early enough that the fruit will continue to develop with sugar and flavour, so will be great for cider and juice,” she said. Dobernigg who has a cidery on the farm, likes to offer customers a nonalcoholic option as well. “The demand for juice is there.” The timing is right for Mobile Juicing, which is expanding its apple juicing service to include cherries and berries. “With the addition of the de-stoner, belt press and bottle filler, we can
process cherries and berries for juice, cider, spirits or wine,” said Trovato. Trovato and her husband Remo are now into their third season of the onsite juicing business, Mobilejuicing. com. “We found ourselves busy in the apple season and wondered how we could extend our services right through the summer,” she said. “We listened to the farmers’ requests and added the de-stoner and belt press to allow for cherries and berries.” In processing the juice, the fruit is pre-washed, pitted if necessary and seeds and stems are safely removed. The mash is then put into tanks for enzyme treatment, which separates the juice from the pulp. The juice is then pumped again through the filter and pasteurizer and on to the packaging system. Cherries, blueberries raspberries and cranberries are some of the fruits that can juiced. It’s a win win for both the Trovatos and the orchardists. Not only does it extend their season, it allows orchardists more product for their customers — product, that would otherwise be discarded. “We do more than juice, we can also puree for schnapps, baby food, whatever people desire,” said Trovato.

Brewery unveils new ale Morning Star Staff
Whether it’s for barbecues or camping, Vernonbased Okanagan Spring Brewery has a new release for the season. Okanagan Spring Cloudy Amber Ale has a hazy, deep amber colour and it’s kept unfiltered for a cloud on the pour. Stefan Tobler, Okanagan Spring’s brewmaster for 30 years, says he’s delighted to release the — Stefan new ale. “This is an excellent new brew that’s well balanced, deep in colour, cloudy and hopping with flavour,” he said. “In keeping with our commitment to purity, it’s brewed according to the Bavarian Purity Law using only four ingredients – barley, hops, water and yeast, making it all natural. “This is truly a beer to enjoy year-round and for any occasion – best paired with spicy foods, soft
cheese and red meats.” The new release delivers on a growing U.S.based trend towards amber ales, which is beginning to have a flow-on effect in Canada. Amber ale was identified as one of the top 10 craft beer styles in the U.S. for 2013. Okanagan Spring Cloudy Amber Ale is available at liquor stores, as well as on tap at selected venues across B.C. Tobler Thirty years on, Okanagan Spring is still brewed in Vernon, where it was first founded, and it has become one of B.C.’s leading popular craft beers. The Okanagan Spring portfolio includes favourites such as Okanagan Spring Pale Ale, Okanagan Spring 1516 Bavarian Lager, Okanagan Spring Porter, Okanagan Spring Brewmaster’s Black Lager, Okanagan Spring Apricot Summer Weizen and now Okanagan Spring Cloudy Amber Ale.
“This is an excellent new brew.”

The cycle of emotional investing
I
n many areas of your life, you’re probably aware that it’s useful to keep emotions out of your decision-making — and that’s certainly the case with investing. However, it can be difficult to keep your feelings from influencing your investment decisions. You may find it easier to invest with your head, rather than your heart, if you know a little something about two different cycles: the market cycle and your emotional cycle. Let’s start with the market cycle. If you’ve been investing for a while, you’re aware (probably highly aware) that the financial mar-
kets are rarely static — they are always moving up and down, at least in the short term. Over the very long term, a period of many decades, the markets have trended up. But these shortterm moveBruce Shepherd ments, while perhaps appearing as zigs and zags on a daily basis, actually form a pattern, or a cycle, that can last for months or years. These cycles are known as bull (up) or bear (down) markets. Going back to the Great Depression, the average bear market has lasted 21 months,
Guest Column
while the average bull market has extended for 57 months, according to research from Standard and Poor’s Index Services. These market cycles greatly influence investors’ attitudes and behavior. In fact, they lead to the formation of investors’ emotional cycles. During bull markets, investors tend to feel optimism, excitement and even euphoria. But once a bull market ends and a bear market begins, investors start getting nervous. And the longer and deeper the bear market, the greater the depth of emotion felt by investors. These emotions can begin as anxiety and then progress to denial, fear, desperation and panic. Furthermore, mar-
ket cycles and emotional cycles don’t really align. For example, investors may well experience euphoria when the market has reached its high point and a bear market has just begun. For a while, then, these investors, fueled by their euphoric feelings over the big gains they’ve achieved, may continue pouring money into the market, even as it’s declining. This type of behavior, though, is probably better suited for when the market is down, when investors’ dollars will buy more shares. Conversely, investors may reach the peak of their fearfulness at the end of a bear market, just when things are about to turn around. At this point, their

Podiatrist Dr. Mike Motyer is packing up shop and relocating North Okanagan Foot and Ankle about two kilometres north. “We are moving so we can put our own surgical suite in the building. It will allow me to do foot surgeries in the building,” said Motyer, who started North Okanagan Foot and Ankle in Vernon last January. The grand opening for the new location, behind the Petro-Canada on 48th Avenue, is Aug. 2. According to Motyer, the new office already has plenty of surgeries booked. His office will be the only one in the Okanagan that offers in-house surgery and scopes. “It is all about better patient care. We have that now because

fear may hold them back from investing — even though, with prices low, it can be a good time to invest. Clearly, basing investment decisions on emotions can lead to poor choices. Don’t get caught up in this pattern. Of course, market pullbacks happen unexpectedly and investment performance is never guaranteed, but it can help to follow a disciplined approach to investing and focus on the long-term. Build
an investment portfolio that reflects your objectives, risk tolerance and time horizon, and seek to hold appropriate investments for the long term. Of course, you may well need to make adjustments along the way, but do it for the right reasons — such as a change in your goals or in the investments themselves — rather than as a reaction to the current market cycle. Emotions are powerful, and their power can increase when
applied to such a meaningful aspect of our life as our finances. If you can detach yourself, as much as possible, from the emotional cycle of investing, you can avoid considerable angst — while helping clear the path to pursue your goals.

YOU AND THE LAW
BUYING A FORECLOSURE/COURT ORDERED SALE • BUYER BEWARE
Many people wonder about the process of purchasing a foreclosure home. These are complicated transactions and are quite different from a standard home purchase and present many risks to the purchaser.
When a home owner stops making the mortgage payments for a certain length of time, the bank will ultimately take over the home and sell it to recover money they are owed. This is a long process that the bank and the home owner go through called a foreclosure.
financing. Once they have removed all of these conditions and are fully committed to the purchase, a court date will be set. Now that a court date is set, the purchase price that has been agreed to becomes public knowledge. This means that if anyone else is interested in buying the home, they can show up in court on the date of the hearing and make an offer; most of the time with full knowledge of what the original Buyer has agreed to pay. Any additional offers must be subject free as the judge will only accept offers with no subject clauses.
Once the property is listed for sale, the marketing is usually the same as any other home. Prospective buyers will view If no other interested purchasers arrive in Court then the original Buyer usually gets the home and if they are interested in the home at the price agreed purchasing it they will have to in the contract. In some their real estate professional cases though, the Judge draft an offer. When an offer may decide the home has comes in on a foreclosure not been on the market long property, it is most often enough to get the best price, the legal representative for or that the price accepted the bank who will decide by the bank is significantly what terms and conditions lower than market value, to accept.

Camping in the Cascades jane cassie Special To The Morning Star
WASHINGTON - Camping, for some keeners, means cramming-in as many adrenaline-surging activities as possible. For me, it’s all about roasting marshmallows over an open fire, lying back with a good book and connecting with Mother Nature. And during this three-day trip of Washington’s Cascade Loop, I enjoy just that. Our entry point is Sedro-Wooley, a quaint Skagit Valley community that’s dotted with century-old farm houses and fields of pretty tulips. Soon after ascending Highway 20 and meeting up with the turbulent Skagit River, these blooming beauties are replaced by century-old hemlock and cedar. And in December, these stately stands become perfect hangouts for bald eagles that come to prey on the spawning salmon. Diablo Lake is our first of many photo moments. Its brilliant turquoise colour, attributed to fine glacial silt, is mesmerizing –not just for us picture-takers, but for kayakers and canoeists too. Outdoor enthusiasts also gravitate to the many hiking trails along this drive, one being the Pacific Crest National, a route that snakes all the way from Manning Park to Mexico. My husband, Brent, makes a comment that it would be a fabulous trekking experience. The surroundings continue to exhilarate. We slice through the Methow Valley and scoot around heaven-bound mounds of granite. When cloaked in wintry white, this dryer interior zone lures the crosscountry skiers. And during the warmer months, the pathways become a haven for horseback lovers. En route to our first campground we pass Mazama’s Freestone Inn, a posh spot that epitomizes the lap of luxury. Jetted tubs, quilted beds, yummy cuisine –we’d definitely have a night of seclusion and serenity if we stayed here. But no –we keep on truckin’ –and eventually snuggle up for the night with Mother Earth instead. And at a 1,100 metre (3,600 feet) elevation,
okanogan county tourism photo
Methow Valley is popular with skiers in the winter and horseback riders in the summer. Lone Fir Campground is a heavenly spot to pitch a tent. Our site is just steps away from Early Winters Creek and a short stroll from the trailhead to Cutthroat Lake. Sun Mountain Lodge is another alluring temptation the following day. From its lofty mountaintop plateau, near the western town of Winthrop, we’d be privy to lavish living and spa treatments as well as horseback and hay rides. Once again we decline –and instead, spend the afternoon sauntering the boardwalk and moseying through some of the emporiums of this Gunsmoke-look-alike town. From Lake Chelan, and later Wenatchee, we’re confronted with way too many activities than we have time for during this short trip. Our second night with nature is spent at Lake Wenatchee State Park, a 489-acre outdoor mecca that nestles up to a glacier fed lake. “There’s a lot to do here,” Brent comments, when we first register. “Swimming, hiking, horseback – take your pick.” The Bavarian village of Leavenworth merits a long coffee stop the next morning. While nestled in the foothills of these alluring mountains, it’s a storybooklike destination that Heidi would love. Overflowing planter boxes reach out from Swiss-motif shops and while sipping a
little java, we tap our toes to an oompah band. Onward and upward. After veering around the steep walls of Tumwater Canyon, we climb and summit at Coles Corner, a recreation hangout for boaters and fishermen. Skiers also get in on the action every winter at nearby Stephens Pass when up to 11.5 metres (450 inches) of white fluff cloaks its 37 runs and 1,125 acres of skiable terrain. Action-packed adventures continue to parallel the rest of our scenic loop. Rock climbers ascend gravity-defying cliffs in the town of Index. Whitewater rafters challenge the rushing torrents of Skykomish River. Golfers putt on manicured greens in Monroe. And I’m quite content to check them all out from my comfy passenger seat. We finalize this Cascade trip in the quaint town of Snohomish, the Antique Capital of the Northwest, where in a few hundred dealers set up shop in a six block radius. “We could venture a little further to Everett and go whale watching or rent a couple of bikes,” Brent suggests. “Not this time,” I reply, reflecting back on the past few days. “The camping was enough for me this trip.” Jane Cassie is with Travel Writers’ Tales.

A feast of lobsters Morning Star Staff
You don’t have to be a Maritimer to take part in the Rotary Club of Vernon’s Lobsterfest, just someone who enjoys fresh Atlantic lobster. The Rotary Lobster Fest 2014 takes place June 20 at the Schubert Centre and includes dinner and live music. “Lobsters from the Bay of Fundy are bought from Canadian fishers,” said Carol Schroeder, with the club. “Live lobsters are shipped by air to arrive in Vernon the day before the Lobsterfest.” The festivities begin at 6 p.m., with cocktails; dinner is at 7 p.m. and then dance the night away with live music from Stewy Stuart’s four-piece band, Transplant. As well, participants will have a chance to win a five-pound lobster. “We are going upscale,” said Pam Owen, with the club. “And, while we have had Rotarians singing and playing at our events before, this year we will have a professional band.” Tickets are $50 and include your choice of fresh lobster or enjoy chicken or steak if you prefer, for $40. Whichever you choose, your meal is served up with side dishes and all the fixings. Vernon Rotary Club has raised more than $30,000 in the past year for projects in the community, ranging from Kindale Developmental Association and Vernon Women’s Transition House, to the Junction Literacy Centre and the Zimbabwe Project. For more information or for tickets, call Schroeder at 250-545-8499 or e-mail carolschroeder@gmail.com or text or call Owen at 250-2600008 or e-mail powen@vantageone.net

the bagpipes in local pipe bands, as did Wendy. Donna chose to play the drums in the pipe band and Sherry decided she wanted to do something different so she joined the Vernon Girls Trumpet Band and played the drums and trumpet. “Happy anniversary,” with lots of love from your family and friends.

As the voice of seniors in B.C., Mackenzie will have a broad mandate to monitor and review system-wide issues affecting the wellbeing of seniors and raise awareness about resources available to them. The advocate will also make recommendations to government and those who deliver seniors’ services related to health care, personal care, housing, transportation and income support. You can reach the office by mail: Office of the Seniors Advocate, 1-2, 1515 Blanshard St., Victoria, B.C., V8W 3C8 or send an e-mail to seniorsadvocate@ gov.bc.ca.

Four-year-old Maven Lane preschoolers Emily Miles (left), Yuki Sekiguchi, Grace Peebles and Liam Phair roll on the paint that now covers the former West Vernon school.
New moniker for old school Morning Star Staff
A familiar place for children and families has a new name. The former West Vernon school has become Maven Lane, which represents the goals of what was previously known as the North Okanagan Child Care Society. “If you look it up, maven means a source and a provider of knowledge,” said Rob Miles, Maven Lane board member. “We really feel that from parent to child to educator, we’re all learning from each other. We’re also located, well, at the end of a lane.” Maven Lane moved into the former West Vernon school, its third location, 13 years ago. It purchased the property six months ago. Over the years, the non-profit society has grown from a single room with 16 children to caring for more than 300 children as Canada’s third-largest child care facility under one roof. “We’ve come a long way, and it was a huge achievement for us to be able to purchase this building,” said Hollie Henderson, Maven Lane executive director. “Now that we have our own building and our own name, it feels like we can plant our feet on the ground and get excited about the future. We’re home.” Maven Lane will host a grand opening celebration June 25. The event, offering music, children’s activities and complimentary barbecue, is open to the public

The Lymphomaniacs were there. So were Walkers For Wally. On The Right Path. Daffodil Dolls. Forty teams, 272 participants and 60 volunteers helped raise $52,000 in the annual Canadian Cancer Society Relay For Life at Vernon’s Polson Park. “The Canadian Cancer Society thanks all dedicated volunteers, team captains, participants, survivors, caregivers, donors and corporate sponsors for their outstanding support,” said Sarb Tatla-Low, Relay For Life coordinator. “Your donations will help to fund life-saving research into all types of cancer, advocating for public policies to prevent cancer, and supporting individuals living with cancer. “ Among the participants were three generations of Kazmars – mom Annette Kazmar, daughter Karen Baker and Baker’s daughter Alana – aking part in memory of Kazmar’s husband, George, who lived in Vernon

his entire life. The event, which started Saturday at 6 p.m. and wrapped up last Sunday at 6 a.m., began with a poignant victory lap carried out by cancer survivors. The survivors entered through an honour guard conducted by the Buoyant Buddies dragonboat team, complete with raised paddles for the survivors to walk through. Another beautiful moment occured at dusk when the oval at Polson Park was illuminated with candles in memory of loved ones lost to cancer. People take part in teams or as individuals and walk for the entire event or do as many laps as they want. One student from the Kalamalka Secondary team walked 103 consecutive laps. Tatla-Low said thanks to the support for events like Relay For Life, B.C. has the lowest cancer incidence and mortality rates in Canada.

Further reorganizing is underway at the District of Lake Country. The community and customer services department has been replaced by the infrastructure services department, which will be responsible for all maintenance and operations in the municipality, including parks and buildings. “The new department will also oversee long-term infrastructure planning and the district’s five-year capital budget,” said Alberto De Feo, chief administrative officer. “As a result of the change, the director of community and customer services position was eliminated.” The engineering department will shift focus as well by concentrating on engineering support to development applications and garbage, recycling, public transportation and regional matters. “Because of the continuing trend which shows that building permits are still down,

one building inspector position was eliminated,” said De Feo. The reorganization will save about $230,000 a year to fund the Transportation for Tomorrow program, which is part of the district’s infrastructure management strategy.
This is the third round of restructuring within the municipality. “The business systems review will make the local government services more efficient and less onerous to the taxpayers,” said De Feo.

Cathi Litzenberger Morning Star Columnist
Today, across this beautiful country of ours, we are honouring fathers. The very essence of my soul was touched in a most profound way in regard to fathers these past couple of weeks. First by the D-Day memorial celebrations recently held on the beaches of Normandy, France, to honour the veterans who fought so valiantly for our freedoms. And secondly from attending the funeral services Tuesday (courtesy of CBC TV) for the three slain RCMP officers in Moncton, N.B. — fathers, all of them. Today, I want to honour fathers everywhere, especially those who have sacrificed and risked their lives in the past, and to those who still risk their lives today, whether by going to war 70 years ago, or by going to war today on our streets and cities to protect us. Thank you all. You are true heroes. And especially today, I’d like to honour a particular soldier, who 70 years ago, landed on Juno Beach with many other young Canadian soldiers. His name is John Keough and is pictured here with three of his 18 great-grandchildren. Every year, the number of these Second World War veterans diminishes and it won’t be long until they and their stories are gone. This veteran will be celebrating his 90th birthday at the end of June. He’s requested a party with all of his favourite foods and, most important, all his family and friends. We shall comply. Happy Father’s Day to all dads, especially mine. Today’s recipes are some of my dad’s favourites, great for any celebration. Strawberry Shortcake 2/3 cup sugar 1/4 cup shortening 1 egg 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 teaspoon salt 1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 cup milk Whipped cream 1-1/2 quarts fresh or frozen strawberries, sliced In a bowl, cream sugar and shortening. Add egg and vanilla; beat well. Combine dry ingredients and add alternately with milk to the creamed mixture. Spread in a greased nine-inch square baking pan.

Authentic German Potato Salad 3 cups diced peeled potatoes 4 slices bacon 1 small onion, diced 1/4 cup white vinegar 2 tablespoons water 3 tablespoons white sugar
Cathi Litzenberger
John Keough, a Second World War veteran and Cathi Litzenberger’s dad , is father of eight children, grandpa to 18 and greatgrandpa to 17. He celebrates with great-grandchildren Michaela, Zoe and Ethan, along with a raspberry chocolate cake. 1 teaspoon salt 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley Place the potatoes into a pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil, and cook for about 10 minutes, or until easily pierced with a fork. Drain, and set aside to cool. Place the bacon in a large deep skillet over mediumhigh heat. Fry until browned and crisp, turning as needed. Remove from the pan and set aside. Add onion to the bacon grease, and cook over medium heat until browned. Add the vinegar, water, sugar, salt and pepper to the pan. Bring to a boil, then add the potatoes and parsley. Crumble in half of the bacon. Heat through, then transfer to a serving dish. Crumble the remaining bacon over the top, and serve warm. Chocolate Raspberry Cake 1 box dark chocolate cake mix Eggs, oil, water as mix calls for 1-1/2 cups fresh raspberries, very slightly crushed 24 oz. cream cheese icing
2 tbsp. raspberry preserves ¼ cup flour Chocolate sundae syrup Preheat oven and prepare cake mix as package directs. Prepare pans with vegetable spray and a dusting of flour. Pour batter into two eight-inch round pans. Using a teaspoon, put little drops of raspberries over the batter. Use the baking times from the box as a guideline, cake may take a little longer. Let cool enough to handle. Remove cake from pans. Spread the cake top with some raspberry preserves. They should melt in. Place second cake on top, both tops of the cake should be together. This gives you a flat cake surface. Let cool then fill in the gaps with icing and chill to make the first layer of icing firm and easier to work with. Ice the sides then the top of the cake with the remaining icing until you no longer see the chocolate. A great presentation is to drizzle chocolate syrup on the plate. Warm just a little preserves in the microwave for a few seconds and drizzle that with the chocolate.

Enjoy the magic around you
n a flight across the country this week, I was reminded of how magically impressive flying in an airplane really is. In four hours, I travelled from Kelowna to Toronto. That’s less than the time it takes to drive to Vancouver, complete my work day, take care of the yard and garden. I was in a city 4,120 kilometres away. In years gone by, that trip would have taken years. As a kid driving on one of the crazy car Michele Blais vacations we did as a family, it took five days. On Thursday, it was a beautiful day to fly and I had booked a window seat so I could enjoy the countryside. The sky was a beautiful blue and fairly clear with mostly just little puffy clouds like cotton balls scattered on a child’s painting. Those little puffs allowed me to see through to this absolutely beautiful country’s landscape as we sat in our chairs, in a steel tube, 37,082 feet in the air. Higher than the birds fly. The only feature I needed to make it better was if I could have been listening to CBC Radio as I flew across a large chunk of this great land. I would have liked to hear Stuart McLean tell one of his great stories, or listen to some music from some artists that wouldn’t normally cross my path. Jian Ghomeshi would have been enjoyable. The Irrelevant Show would have made me laugh as it does every time I listen to it. Rex Murphy’s Cross Country Checkup would have been very fitting. I love CBC Radio and those many
The Way I see IT
great shows that I have listened to over the years have helped deepen my love for Canada. The radio was always on in my childhood home. My father and stepfather both listened to sports at night on the radio, they would be relaxing in a chair or in bed enjoying the play by play action of a ball game or hockey game. The skill of the announcer to describe the play was very important to being able to engage the listeners enthusiasm and imagination. Yelling at the radio was as common as yelling at the TV is today. My personal connection with CBC began when I lived in Fort McMurray as a young woman and I was living in some horrible staff accommodation, in a small room and my entertainment, besides my books, was CBC Radio. I felt very Canadian listening to stories of Newfoundland, small towns in the prairies, or the west coast and all places in between. The radio programming helped me feel connected to my home in Ontario, and taught me so much over the years. I listened to Peter Gzowski like he was Springsteen, and that was true love. My relationship with CBC has stayed and I am a regular listener. I have laughed till I cried, and cried many tears over personal stories of triumph; learned from Quirks and Quacks, the Current and Randy Bachman’s Vinyl Tap and prepared many a meal listening to Definitely Not The Opera. CBC Radio provides to me a multitude of services — education, news, history, cultural awareness, entertainment, and deep, deep national pride. It opens my eyes to innovation, new ideas and different view points. Keep it please and put it on planes. What I was reminded of on Thursday was to appreciate how amazing life is. Airplanes, trains and automobiles, cell phones that send signals to space and

then back down to us in seconds, but sometimes aren’t fast enough. Next time you feel something isn’t working fast enough think about the process it is going through and appreciate that. I am in Toronto writing this column and when I hit send, Katherine Mortimer in Vernon will receive it at her computer within seconds. Seconds, folks! Amazing. I am glad that I grew up without the Internet, had a party line phone as our first telephone, went to a one-room school house and had to play outside no matter what the weather because I do get excited and am impressed with technology. It is amazing what is offered now, our progress in health care, education tools, science, manufacturing, the arts, business, travel, connecting families is phenomenal. And it continues at a rapid pace. We take a lot for granted and expect a great deal and appreciation or wonder would be welcomed. When I was looking out the window of the plane it appeared as if we were moving slowly, peacefully gliding through the air. The little map on the screen in front of me showed the cities we flew over, Calgary, Yorkton, Regina, Winnipeg, Sudbury. I was feeling very present enjoying the view below, the Rockies, the checkered pattern of Prairie farms, looking for shoreline on the great lakes. Peaceful, content. In the distance I saw another plane and it was going fast, probably 500-plus kilometres like us. It feels slow but we are flying. Life is fast, days go by, months years, we experience so much. It is also full of great moments, ah ahs, and those that take our breath away. Give pause and enjoy those moments and the magic that surrounds you. Including yourself and all that you as a human are capable of.
Workshop teaches people how to trust Morning Star Staff
Gwen McGregor will give a lecture about techniques to help you learn to trust your intuition. The event takes place June 24 at 1 and 7 p.m. at the Vernon Sandman Inn. McGregor, who is a national leader with the Inner Peace Movement of Canada, will speak
on trusting yourself and fulfilling your life dreams, and finding peace of mind. Also she will speak about life purpose, guardian angels, the four psychic gifts and the seven-year cycles of life. “Chills or goose bumps lets you know they are with you”, she said of angels.
“Learning how to meditate and relax through the community program was an important step in my ability to stay open to receive their help. “Now the same techniques in my retirement years are still my most valuable tools I have to stay positive and happy,” she said. McGregor will give
direction for those who would like more as there is a gentle structure in place so you can find your own answers to life and live the kind of life you want. The choice for more is up to the individual, she said. The 90-minute talks June 24 are $21 paid at the door. Go to the website www.inner-

Watch out for unwanted house guests! Springtime brings green grass, flowers and hitchhiking parasites that would like to find lodging on your dog or cat. These pesky culprits thrive at this time of year. Warm, humid conditions are ideal for the emergence of fleas and ticks. These parasites can be extremely irritating to pets and can cause serious skin problems or even carry disease. Hosting a tick is the price a dog may pay for investigating shrubbery, bushes, or wild undergrowth. Adult ticks seek large hosts such as dogs to feed on their blood. Ticks are mostly found around the dog’s neck, ears, in the folds between the legs and body, and in between the toes. Tick bites can cause severe irritation, occasional paralysis and may transmit disease such as lyme or Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Adult fleas in contrast, spend their almost entire adult life on your pet. Female fleas can start to lay eggs within 24 hours of selecting your pet as their host. Fleas are transmitted from infested pet to pet by either brushing against each other, or your pet lying down in an area where an infested animal just had occupied. You should inspect your pet regularly for fleas or ticks. Talk to us about the best products for flea and tick control.

Vertigo issues call for entries for Artists at Work show Photographs of anyone who works in creative/ artistic fields welcome
Morning Star Staff
Vernon’s Gallery Vertigo is hosting a community exhibition of photographs of artists at work this July. The exhibition is open to photographers of all ages and levels of experience, and all artists, wherever they work: in their studios, in workshops, in open air, on the street, or in galleries. “We would like to celebrate the wealth of art in the North Okanagan, of all kinds imaginable,” said Gallery Vertigo board member Harold Rhenisch. Vertigo is looking for photographs of autobody painters, landscape painters, abstract artists, cake decorators, chefs, portrait painters, interior designers, sculptors, book designers, teachers, students, printers, children, silkscreeners, jewelers, welders, metal fabricators, writers, upholsterers, novelists, web designers,
sign painters, tattoo artists, landscape designers, house painters, poets, baristas, and anyone else who works artistically in the North Okanagan. “If you are working artistically or with design, this is your show,” said Rhenisch. “All artistic work deserves celebrating.” Photographs can be in any style, from simple snapshots to elaborate, staged portraits. The image should include an artist at work and be no larger than 8-by-10-inches in size. “We encourage parents to take photographs of their children drawing, colouring or painting,” said Gallery Vertigo’s Michelle Mitchell. “Or children to take pictures of their parents colouring, too,” added Rhenisch. The exhibition will run from Wednesday, July 2 through to Saturday, July 26, with a gala opening from 7 to 9 p.m., July 4. Submissions will be accepted at the gallery between from Tuesday to Saturday this week. For more information, contact the gallery, Suite #1, 3001-31st St. Vernon or call (250) 503-2297 during opening hours, Tuesday to Saturday from noon to 4 p.m.

Bands gear up for inaugural Okanagan Military Tattoo Visiting and local performers are getting ready for one of the biggest events to hit the Okanagan this summer Morning Star Staff
Rudyard Kipling said that “No one, not even the adjutant, can say for certain where the soul of the battalion lives; but the expression of that soul is most often found in the band.” The Royal Canadian Artillery Band, whether found on the parade square, marching on the streets, or performing for soldiers, has been instilling a sense of Canadian pride locally and abroad for more than 100 years. These fine musicians are based at Canadian Division Support Base in Edmonton and perform at more than 250 events annually. The Okanagan Military Tattoo Society is pleased to announce

The Royal Canadian Artillery Band is one of the visiting performers coming to Vernon to participate in the inaugural Okanagan Military Tattoo at Kal Tire Place Aug. 1 and 2. that the Royal Canadian Artillery Band will be performing at the Okanagan Military Tattoo at Kal Tire Place in Vernon Aug. 1 and 2. “Traditionally, tattoos have provided an opportunity for civilians to witness the precision and professionalism of those who have dedicated their lives to the defence and security of their country,” said Norm Crerar, with the Okanagan Military Tattoo Society. “2014 marks a special year for Canada as we reflect with pride and gratitude on the con-
tribution of our servicemen and women as we commemorate the 100th anniversary of the outbreak of the First World War.” The Okanagan Military Tattoo will showcase local musicians and dancers together with world class performances by the Royal Canadian Artillery Band, the RCMP Pipes & Drums, the RCMP Ceremonial Troop, the Calgary Stampede Band of Outriders, and Massed Pipe Bands, as well as a choir, from the Okanagan area with a special Salute to our
30th Annual
Veterans. Joining the massed band will be Vernon’s very own Kalamalka Highlanders Pipe Band and the Arran Campbell Memorial Pipe Band, who just competed in the 36th annual Spring Fling event held in Kamloops. Winners of the Revelstoke event last year, the KHPB was a close second behind the Vancouver Police Pipe band this year. “The event, comprised of 10 bands, traditionally includes pip-

ing, drumming, ensemble, dress, drill and deportment (the three Ds), a fun dance, and skit,” said Reg Scott, with the KHPB. Besides playing at Fintry Provincial Park and at the Falkland Stampede in May as well as Vernon’s Relay for Life and the Lumby Days parade, the bands will perform next with the Argyll School of Performing Arts at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre Wednesday, and at the Canada Day celebrations in Polson Park. Both bands will be at the park Mondays and Thursdays at 7 p.m. preparing for the Okanagan Military Tattoo, and the public is welcome to come and hear them play.

Musical theatre students from Charity Van Gameren’s studio at the Vernon Community Music School enact the Mad Hatter’s tea party from Alice in Wonderland Jr. The Disney musical stages at Powerhouse Theatre stage Friday.
Young stars bring Alice to the stage Morning Star Staff
A group of young musical theatre students are about to enter a magical world where cats and caterpillars talk and tea parties are all the rage. Local musical theatre instructor Charity Van Gameren, just off directing a local production of Footloose at the Vernon Performing Arts Centre, is showcasing her studio’s younger musical theatre stars (ages six to 12) in the classic Disney tale, Alice in Wonderland Jr. “This particular junior version is an hour in length, the perfect amount of sitting time for younger audiences,” said Van Gameren, whose studio is based at the Vernon Community Music School. The musical follows Alice, who is bored with her school studies and wants a bit of adventure in her life.
She finds more than she bargained for when she follows a white rabbit down its hole. In this new world, Alice meets many crazy and wonderful characters as she chases after the White Rabbit. “It is based on the Disney movie, so the audience will meet Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, The Cheshire Cat, have a mad tea party and come face to face with the infamous evil Queen of Hearts,” said Van Gameren. “The music that the cast sings and dances to is so much fun, it has been a wonderful score and script to work on with them.” Alice in Wonderland Jr. takes the stage at Vernon’s Powerhouse Theatre Friday for two performances at 5 and 7:30 p.m. All tickets are available at the Ticket Seller box office.

Armstrong has Music in the Park Morning Star Staff
Armstrong’s Valley First Music in the Park opens its summer concert season at Memorial Park Friday with a performance by Vernon trio The Creeks. In honour of National Aboriginal Day, which is on Saturday, bannock will be available at the concert, as well as treats provided by the Armstrong branch of Valley First Credit Union. “Well maintained by the Armstrong Spallumcheen Parks and Recreation, Memorial Park is one of Armstrong’s most scenic spots with a swimming pool, children’s water park, playground equipment and lots of shade for people to come and relax all summer long,” said ArmstrongSpallumcheen chamber manager Patti Noonan. “Visitors to Music in the Park are encouraged to bring a blanket, chairs, snacks and beverages or even dinner. Relax, enjoy the fresh air and time with family and friends.” Influenced by artists such as James Taylor, Crosby Stills and Nash, Neil Young, Phil Keaggy, and Bruce Cockburn, The Creeks are Dave Moore, Bob Oldfield and Tim Boulter, who all have a history of playing rock music from across the ages, in various bands, and in various countries. With a common interest in good guitar music, all have been heavily exposed to the great singer songwriters and acoustic sounds of the ‘70s and use that music to influence their own roots and folk styles. Hosted by the Armstrong Spallumcheen Chamber of Commerce and Valley First, the Music in the Park series runs every Friday until Aug. 22 at 7 p.m. As well as presenting the series, Valley First is promoting hunger awareness through its Feed the Valley program each evening. Concert attendees can support the program by bringing a non-perishable food item to Music in the Park or by making a donation at the nearest Valley First branch, online at valleyfirst.com or through the Food Banks B.C. online donations portal.

HEALTH TIP brought to you by your Pharmasave Pharmacist IAN JOHNSTONE
We’ve all heard the phrase ‘five-second rule’ when food drops on the floor. This is indeed a myth and many studies have proven its fallacy. We often forget that our shoes track in many bacteria, many of which are fecal in origin. Here’s a better rule: Drop it? Toss it. Good sleep hygiene includes sleeping in a cooler room. It seems that keeping your night-time bedroom temperature between 15.5º and 19ºC (60 - 66ºF) is ideal. It helps cool down your body’s core temperature which helps you sleep better. If you always seem to be warm, try a cool shower before bed. One type of exercise that has become popular in recent years is interval training. This combines short bursts of intense activity (intervals) with lower intensity periods of activity. The activity can be swimming, running or even walking. If you use walking as your exercise of choice, warm up first, then walk really briskly for 30 seconds, slow down and let your heart rate normalize, then repeat. Check with your doctor first if you plan any new exercise activity. This is allergy season and the pollen drifting through the air can make life uncomfortable for many. Flushing the nasal passages with a saline solution will help clear pollen so it won’t bother you. You can make your own solution (¼ teaspoon each of salt and baking soda in 8 ounces of water) or buy some ready-made at the pharmacy.

Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt battle against alien invaders in Edge of Tomorrow.
Reel Reviews
Taylor and Howe
huge Tom Cruise fan and was looking forward so much to this. Anyway back to the film, what did you think John? DENT: Watch. Enjoy. Repeat. Edge of Tomorrow was by no means Earth shattering or amazing
and the baddies seemed to be something born of a romantic night between the alien from Alien and the Tasmanian devil but it was fun. The plot made enough sense that I believed the cause of Case’s supernatural Groundhog Day ability. So would you like the power to replay a day over and over or would you always worry the day may not reset itself when you died? HOWE: I like Cruise movies. Yes, they are way over the
top, so far fetched and his acting ability isn’t fantastic, but there is something that pulls them together that makes them an enjoyable, action flick. This is no different. DENT: While I liked the concept of the movie, I found it a bit jarring constantly having to remember that Emily Blunt and the whole J-Squad had only known Case for less than a day. That being said, he seems to learn a lot about J-Squad in his months, if not years, of playing the same day over and over again.
That begs the question, why would J-Squad ever tell Case all these personal details he uses to convince them when by their accounts they never really get to know him or like him? HOWE: Throughout the movie I noticed that some of the stuff going on didn’t make that much sense, but being a sci-fi action movie I can let such things slide. I ask myself did it hold my attention for the two hours and I have to say yes, from beginning to end, so it has done its purpose at entertaining me. DENT: There were definite plot holes in logic but I had a blast at the movie, and that seems to be a less common occurrence these days. I didn’t enjoy it so much when the screen went black and I could just hear Tom Cruise fighting an alpha alien in a scene that, later, seemed quite plot critical, but that may just be the magic of the movie going experience. – Howe gives Edge of Tomorrow 4 sets of helicopter keys out of 5. – Dent gives it 4 motorbike rides out of 5.
Valdy is first artist to play The Orchard Morning Star Staff
Canadian folk legend Valdy is about to be surrounded by the Okanagan’s bounty when he performs at a fruit orchard in Lake Country. The concert is being presented by the Arts Council of the Central Okanagan, which has began a new partnership in agri-tourism with The Orchard, located in Oyama. Overlooking Kalamalka and Wood Lakes, The Orchard provides a unique place for musicians to perform in a warm and relaxing setting among the trees. No stranger to these parts, Valdy, born Valdemar Horsdal in Ottawa, has been part of the fabric of Canadian pop and folk music for almost 40 years. The Order of Canada recipient is a man with a thousand friends, from Newfoundland to Vancouver Island to Texas to New Zealand. Remembered for Play Me a Rock and Roll Song, his bittersweet memory of finding himself

BY BERNICE BEDE OSOL
You will need to ride the crest of change that is headed your way. Trying to fight the natural course of events will lead to frustration and disappointment. Resist the urge to compare today’s reality with past circumstances, and make the best of every situation. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) If you are seeking inspiration, look to nature. Getting away for a short trip will remind you of what’s important as well as help you appreciate what you have.
Previous Solution Sudoku
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You can use negativity as a motivator, and it could help you re-evaluate your situation. A path you have shunned in the past will take on a new appeal that could lead to an exciting turn of events. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Romantic possibilities are in the air. Forming a closer bond with your special someone will lead to a greater understanding of your mutual aspirations. If you are single, get out and circulate. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You will be able to cross many items off your to-do list. Your heightened organizational skills will help you achieve much in a short amount of time. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) A surprise will come from an unexpected source. Don’t let your responsibilities weigh you down. Make an effort to have some fun. All work and no play isn’t a healthy way to live.
Crossword Puzzle
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) Trouble is brewing on the home front. Don’t take sides. This is a great time to tackle some chores and thus avoid some discord. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) Take the time to reassess your current situation. If you invite neighbors and friends for an informal gettogether, you will be able to share different viewpoints and experiences, and have fun as well. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Reconsider old dreams, hopes and wishes. If you still feel the same passion, make the necessary
adjustments to bring those ideas to life. Follow your heart. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Don’t hesitate; put your words into play and take action. It’s important to make your intentions clear so that there are no misunderstandings down the line. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Your talents will be put to good use if you support a charity or community group. Choose a cause that inspires you for maximum satisfaction. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your ability to shoulder responsibility has not gone unnoticed. You are much closer to achieving your goals than you realize. Now is not the time to give up. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don’t be gullible. Someone is probably offering you false information. Ask pertinent questions to find out exactly where you stand and how you should proceed.
Hormones Q: I am having problems with sleep, sex drive, hot flashes, weight gain, mood swings and low energy. What can I do? A: These are just a few symptoms of hormone dysfunction. You need hormone testing (saliva or blood tests) to identify imbalances. Treatment uses bio-identical, plant based hormones that exactly duplicate hormones your body produces.

Moderately Confused
Bridge by Phillip Alder PLAY FOR A WINNER, NOT A MISDEFENSE Francis Bacon, an Englishman who a few believe wrote Shakespeare’s plays, said, “Truth comes out of error more readily than out of confusion.” After a bridge deal in which your partner made a mistake, you hope that he sees the reason for his error; you do not want him confused. In today’s deal, South is in three no-trump after West has overcalled in spades. West leads his fourth-highest spade. How should South plan the play after taking this trick with dummy’s queen, the honor from the shorter side first? North’s double was
negative, promising four hearts (and maybe five or six if too weak to respond two hearts). His three-spade cue-bid asked South to bid three no-trump with a spade stopper. South has eight top tricks: one spade, one diamond and six clubs. He can get his ninth winner from hearts or diamonds, but there is a risk that the defenders will run the spade suit first. Since trick one indicates that West has the spade ace, South must work to keep East off the lead. At first glance, this might suggest taking two diamond finesses. However, that is confused thinking. If East has the heart ace, the defenders can always triumph. After a
diamond finesse loses, West can shift to a heart, and East can push through a spade, resulting in down two. If West has the heart ace, though, the contract is safe regardless of the diamond position. The simplest approach is to cross to hand with a club, then to lead the heart four toward dummy.

October 14th 1943 – June 4th 2014 Jim, the youngest of three boys, was born in Tulare, California to Felix and Andrine Hawthorne. As a child his family moved to northern BC and ulƟmately seƩled in Kelowna where Jim grew up. He also spent Ɵme at the family cabin on Westside Road. AŌer high school Jim moved to sancouver and aƩended BC/T, where he completed his training and became a Journeyman Electrician. /n 1966, while working in Hope, he met the love of his life, Elaine, and they were later married in 1968. They had three children and aŌer living in Creston, PenƟcton and Kamloops, they seƩled in sernon in 19ϳϳ. Jim worked for over 20 years at the Vernon Jubilee Hospital, both as the Head Electrician and Superintendent, overseeing the electrical component of the expansion in the 1980s. He reƟred in 2004. Jim was a very caring individual, always willing to lend a hand and to help out. He had a reputaƟon of being a problem solver, able to build or Įx anything and he was oŌen referred to as MacGyver. Many people have shared stories of how Jim helped them or what he built or Įxed ... that was just Dad. He was giŌed with a uniƋue set of skills and abiliƟes. He lived life to the fullest. He water skied at the naƟonal level and was an avid snowboarder͖ boarding just this last season at the age of ϳ0͊ Jim was content with the simpler things in life. /t wasn’t about what he had or did͖ his happiness was found in spending Ɵme with family or in helping others. Simple accomplishments made him proud; he was kind and humble. He loved to be busy, he provided, he puƩered, he built, he created, he planted, he Įxed and repaired and made things for the people he loved and cared about. He was a doer, a Įnisher, a follow-through kind of guy. He enjoyed feeding the birds and walking with Elaine, enjoying the beauty of their park-like yard; the birds, Ňowers and the trees. Jim loved watching his grandchildren’s many acƟviƟes; he doted on his Springer Spaniels, Bart and Spice, and took pleasure in spending Ɵme at the summer cabin. Jim was a devoted husband to his wife Elaine, father to Rex (Melissa), Cheryl (Marc-AndrĠ) and Mark (Eicole) and grandfather to Makayla, Reece, Maxim, Eicholas, /sabelle, Ava and Ella. He is survived by his older brother Ron (Reba) of Cocolalla, /daho. He will be deeply missed by all. We struggle to Įnd words to sum up our father’s life. He was a man of great integrity and values. He could build or Įx anything. We are immensely grateful for the Ɵme we had with him and we will miss the conversaƟons, the advice, the help; above all, being able to spend more Ɵme with him. Dad was a role model who taught us life lessons by doing. Whatever he did, he did to the best of his ability and what he started, he Įnished. We will miss his smile, his paƟence and his uncondiƟonal love; husband, father, friend and conĮdant. /t is in his Įnal words to us that we best Įnd peace... “Don’t feel sad or anything like that, be happy for me as I’ve had a good life and I’m happy that I’ve had all these good years. I love you all and I’m glad that you have all been a big part of my life.” Love Jim Hawthorne There will be a celebraƟon of Jim’s life at the family residence, 6455 Goose Lake Road, on Sunday, June 22nd, from 1:00-4:00 pm.

PETE SEMENOFF
Pete Semenoff passed away November 5, 2013 at 85 years of age.
VAN ZIELGLER, Richard Francis It is with heartfelt sadness that we announce the passing of Richard Francis Van Zielgler on June 10, 2014 in Coldstream, BC. Expressions of sympathy may be forwarded to the family at www.myalternatives.ca Cremation arrangements entrusted to ALTERNATIVES FUNERAL & CREMATION SERVICES® Vernon 250-558-0866 & Armstrong 250-546-7237
Pete had limited formal school training (as was common in the day) but through a natural aptitude for repairing and operating machinery and sheer diligence, he became a sought after heavy duty equipment operator. He had a vast work history throughout his life from logging adventures in the Queen Charlotte, to operating cranes for various construction projects.
Obituaries
Pete settled into retirement always busy, often creating innovative inventions in his beloved shop. He always found time though to assist neighbours with stubborn lawn mowers or other baffling home maintenance problems and was very humbled when they would acknowledge him with a tiny gift of food or a card.
See www.vernonmorningstar.com to see all obituaries on-line
Pete seldom complained, even when faced with challenging health issues, he trudged forward with a silent strength. His work ethic, even to his last days, was something that we all admired and strive to meet. Pete has left behind son Larry, daughter Joan, two grandchildren. Predeceased by his parents and his beloved wife Ann. We remember you at your finest Dad, honor you, and will always love you.

Dear Mama, baba & pra-baba: When we were little, you stayed up nights embracing us close to your bosom; cooked early in the morning - fed, clothed us. Planted your garden; taught your daughters; protected your sons. Soothed our pains; worried endlessly when we let go of your hand. Taught us to pray; hosted family & friends. Accepted others’ faults - you said, for them, we should pray. Where did the time go? With the grievous fate of our loss, a deserving mournful lament we sing. They crossed your hands and covered you with dirt, but not before we kissed your hands with gratitude and remember “how it was”. We will never forget you! Mama, I hope you’re happy wherever you are. I hope Heaven is everything you dreamed it to be. No pain, no worries, no hunger, no grief, no sorrow - just relief! A part of you is in each & every one of us and we miss you so very much! VICHNAYA PAMYAT - EVERLASTING MEMORIES! Forever in our hearts, with love eternally, Olga, Ihor, Josyf, Mary, Hugh Carter & families A 1yr memorial Mass will be celebrated Tues, June 17/14, 9am @ St. Josaphat’s Ukr Catholic Church, 2210-40th Ave. Please come share a memorial luncheon @ the same church hall on Sun.

BRAD HASLAM
LOST:
March 29, 1995 ~ June 15, 2013
We are connected, you and I, by an invisible cord not seen by the eye. It’s not like the cord that connected us ‘till birth, this cord can’t be seen by anyone on earth. This cord does its work, right from the start, it bonds us together, attached at the heart. I know that it’s there though no one can see, the invisible cord, from you to me. The strength of this cord, it’s hard to describe, it can’t be destroyed, it can’t be denied. It’s stronger than any that man could create, it withstands the tests and can withhold any weight. And although you are gone, not here with me, the cord is still there, but no one can see. It pulls at my heart, I am bruised ... I am sore, but the cord is my lifeline, as never before. I am thankful that God connected this way, a mother and child, death can’t take it away! ... Our family chain will link again ... Love always & forever Mom, Morganne (Rowan) & Tyson

I think of you in silence I often speak your name Greatly missed, But all I have are memories never forgotten And your picture in a frame Rose My heart still aches with sadness My silent tears still flow For what it meant to lose you No one will ever know
CLINT MUSSENDEN December 27, 1931 - June 21, 2009
12 months of heartache, 12 months of pain, We would give anything to see your smile again. If we were given 1 wish it would be to change that day, You would sƟll be here never taken away. There are many things we wish we could say, We would wrap our arms around you and beg you to stay. You leŌ so sudden no Ɵme to say goodbye, Loved ones leŌ behind to wonder why. I oŌen lie awake at night when the world is fast asleep, Take a walk down memory lane with tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy I do it every day, But missing you is a heartache that never goes away. When the leaves soŌly rustle and the wind begins to blow, Open your heart, feel his presence, he is there you will know. Just think of him fondly as each new day starts, He now is our angel, he lives in our hearts. Miss you so much Bradley. You will be forever in our hearts.
