Residents flee blaze

Mayor’s decision sparks mystery

Occupants of a Vernon townhouse complex were forced out by fire Thursday morning. At about 7:30 a.m., fire was discovered in one of the units in the 1900 block of 44th Street and the residents in all four of the units fled. “It’s a heck of a thing to wake up to and to have your kid on the other side (another unit),” said one woman. When firefighters arrived, the blaze was fully involved in the upstairs bedroom of one of the units. “There was one occupant in the building and we got the occupant out,” said Lawrie Skolrood, deputy fire chief. Most of the fire was contained to one unit but it’s believed there may be fire and smoke damage in another unit. Skolrood admits the design of the complex created challenges because the units are contiguous. “In this area, they are older townhouses and you never just get one (unit),” he said, adding that the cedar siding acts as a fuel source. “We got lucky on this one because it was reported early. It could have been far worse.” The cause remains under investigation by the fire department and no further details were available at press time. It’s not believed Thursday’s blaze is connected to a recent rash of arson fires in Vernon.

Highway crash claims three victims Morning Star Staff

Three Vernon residents died in a multi-vehicle crash in Lake Country Tuesday. Emergency crews rushed to Highway 97 at Parkinson Drive, next to Duck Lake, at 4:42 p.m., where three others were also taken to hospital. “According to witnesses, a northbound Chevrolet Malibu crossed into oncoming traffic, impacting the front passenger’s side of a southbound Kia Forte before colliding head-on with a five-ton commercial truck,” said Const. Kris Clark, with the RCMP. All three occupants of the Malibu, an 82-year-old man, a 79-year-old woman and a 14-year-old boy, died at the scene.

The driver of the commercial truck, as well as the two occupants of the Kia, all suffered serious but non-life threatening injuries and were transported to hospital. The names of the deceased are being withheld pending notification of the next of kin. The highway remained closed while an RCMP collision reconstructionist conducted a detailed scene assessment. “The analysis of that data is not yet complete and the investigation is ongoing,” said Clark. “Police are seeking further witnesses to this tragic event.” Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call Const. Schneider at the Central Okanagan Traffic Services at 250-980-5353.

Rob Sawatzky is walking away from the mayor’s job and he’s identified his potential replacement. While announcing Thursday that he won’t seek a second term as Vernon mayor, Sawatzky took the unprecedented step of saying that he is aware of an unnamed individual who wants the job. “I feel that this potential candidate has the full set of skills for the mayor’s role,” said Sawatzky, who declined to reveal the person’s name. “This person has years of experience in economic development, in dealing with various levels of government, is a skilled facilitator and has the energy, commitment and desire to serve our community well.” Sawatzky, who is a retired physician, has been weighing his political future for some time. “It was a very difficult decision to make until I became aware of a potential candidate,” he said. Rob Sawatzky Sawatzky, 62, admits he is largely stepping back because of the social aspects of being mayor. “The daytime work is great but you owe it to the community to be out evenings and weekends,” he said of being invited to special events. As for his term as mayor, Sawatzky says he achieved his goal of restoring Vernon’s relationship with neighbouring jurisdictions, initiating a core review of city operations and promoting economic development. “Things have moved positively in that way,” he said of the economy. “We as a council have done what we can do.” Sawatzky is receiving praise from his colleagues. “He’s been such a good and patient leader but when he was elected, he made it clear about his mandate which was a core review and the parks function review and he did it,” said Coun. Mary-Jo O’Keefe. “He has been a great person to work with.” Coun. Juliette Cunningham says she has been impressed with Sawatzky’s role as mayor. “I am disappointed (with his decision) because I enjoyed working with Rob but I respect his reasons,” she said. “He’s done a great job and we’ve accomplished a lot as a council with the relationship with the regional district and we’re more in control of our destiny with the parks function.” O’Keefe admits she was waiting for Sawatzky to declare his intentions so she can decide if she is running for councillor or as mayor. “I am interested (in mayor) but I haven’t made a final decision. There are a few people I need to talk to first but I am considering it,” she said. Cunningham won’t speculate on what position she will seek in November. “It’s too early to say too much. I am putting a lot of thought into the decision I make and I am not there yet,” she said. The only declared candidate for mayor is Klaus Tribes, a former Vernon councillor.

Opposition develops over Kal park road plan

Having a Riot

Jennifer Smith Morning Star Staff

Efforts to widen and upgrade Cosens Bay Road have come as a surprise to local officials. And many don’t like it. The Ministry of Transportation met with Coldstream council Monday night to discuss plans for the road through Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park. A process has been underway since September for a, “proposal to remove Peter McClean a 30 metre right of way to enable widening and upgrade of an existing road. The right of way would be of sufficient size to accommodate potential future utilities,” reads the project on the ministry website. But this is the first local politicians have heard of it. “We’re a little bit miffed that we weren’t advised of this,” said Coun. Peter McClean. “How on Earth has this gotten to this?” Coun. Gyula Kiss adds: “One would have expected that they would consult with local government before making these decisions if they wanted to be open about it.” The project was also news to officials at the Regional District of North Okanagan – Cosens Bay actually falls within Area B.

Wildfire smoke creates valley haze Morning Star Staff

North Okanagan residents are being warned that breathing in high concentrations of smoke could create health care challenges. The Ministry of Environment has issued a smoky skies advisory for the Okanagan and Shuswap because of forest fire smoke that is affecting the area. “Smoke concentrations will vary widely as winds, fire behaviour and temperatures change,” said Ralph Adams, an air quality meteorologist. “Avoid strenuous outdoor activities. If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, contact your health care provider: difficulty in breathing, chest pain or discomfort, and sudden onset of cough or

Okanagan Landing is blanketed in smoke from the wildfires burning throughout B.C. irritation of airways. “Exposure is particularly a concern for infants, the elderly and those who have

underlying medical conditions such as diabetes, and lung or heart disease.” This advisory will remain in effect until further notice. The B.C. Wildfire Branch reports that there are currently several large fires burning in northern B.C., Alberta, and the Northwest Territories. “Because smoke can travel hundreds of kilometres, it is common to see smoky skies even when there are no active fires in your area,” states the B.C. Wildfire Information Facebook page. Residents can go to www.bcairquality.ca/ bluesky/west/index.html and it provides an hour-by-hour forecast of smoke from wildfires in Western Canada up to 48 hours in the future.

While local cabin owners have been pushing for upgrades to the road due to safety issues, there are concerns among others about the result of widening Cosens Bay Road. “My concern is for the viability of the park once this plan is executed and unrestricted vehicular access is allowed through the sensitive environment of this class A provincial park,” said Kiss. Pointing out the size, “30 metres is significant,” McClean says it would accommodate ditching and Hydro. “I think what you’d see is further development.” But Kiss and McClean agree that will only burden the region. “It’s certainly going to have an impact on Coldstream’s infrastructure and it’s definitely going to have an impact on the park,” said McClean. He questions why this road has become a priority for the ministry while there are others in the region that affect far more people. “There’s a lot more happening on Silver Star Road,” said McClean. “This road is going to basically service only the cabins.” A public input session will take place before any proposed plans evolve but no dates have been arranged. McClean expects the ministry will be advising the regional district of its plans next.

Patio drinks approved richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Enjoying a meal and an alcoholic beverage on a downtown Vernon sidewalk could soon be reality. City council has updated its policies to allow for liquor sales at sidewalk patios. The goal is to encourage local residents and tourists to spend time downtown. “There are a number of restaurants with patios and for someone to be able to have a glass of wine brings us into the 21st century,” said Coun. MaryJo O’Keefe. Mary-Jo O’Keefe “It will add some zip to our downtown.” Council recently endorsed an application to the provincial Liquor Control and Licensing Branch so the Naked Pig BBQ can serve alcohol within a sidewalk seating area when it opens on 30th Avenue. The decision to change the bylaw came after consultation with the Downtown Vernon Association. “While well-designed sidewalk patios can benefit business owners economically by expanding seating capacity and attract customers, patrons get to benefit from sitting outdoors to take full advantage of the region’s climate,” said Tanya Laing Gahr, the city’s communications co-ordinator. Businesses wanting a sidewalk patio and the ability to serve liquor require a permit from the city. “They must have an existing liquor licence and apply for an additional approval from the B.C. Liquor Control and Licensing Branch for the liquor service on the patio seating area,” said Cleo Corbett, long range planner.

Victim identified Morning Star Staff

The B.C. Coroners Service has released the identity of the 17-year-old who died following a longboarding accident in Vernon Sunday evening. Christopher Mitchell, a Clarence Fulton Secondary 2014 grad, was longboarding northbound on 39th Street in Vernon at about 11 p.m. when he was in a collision with an eastbound minivan at Okanagan Avenue. Mitchell was taken by ambulance to hospital, but he could not be resuscitated. The RCMP and coroners service continue to investigate the death.

The executive director of the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) has issued a notice of hearing alleging that a former Vernon mutual fund salesperson committed fraud. The case involves the former salesperson allegedly persuading a B.C. investor to unlock her pension funds to invest in a foreign exchange investment

SCHEDULED POWER INTERRUPTION MONTE LAKE, WESTWOLD AND FALKLAND

program, and allegedly did not forward her funds to be invested, but instead spent them with his girlfriend, in part on personal expenses. The notice of hearing alleges that Robert Bruce Rush told the investor that she could use her locked pension funds to purchase a bond and then borrow money to invest using the bond as collateral. Rush also told the investor the scheme was tax-free. In 2008, the investor wrote a $73,200 cheque to Breakthrough Financial Inc. Rush was the sole director of Breakthrough. BCSC staff contend that Rush told the investor her funds would be invested in a foreign exchange investment program offered by an Alberta resident who the Alberta Securities

Commission (ASC) permanently banned from the Alberta securities markets in 2011. In 2014, a BCSC panel reciprocated the ban and permanently banned the Alberta man from the B.C. capital markets. Ru s h and Breakthrough did not forward the investor’s funds to the Alberta resident, contends the BCSC, but instead Rush and his girlfriend spent the money in part on personal expenses. BCSC staff allege that Rush did not tell the investor that he would be keeping and spending the investor’s funds. The CRA later reassessed the investor $35,000 due to the pension unlocking scheme, resulting in the investor having to remortgage her home. The inves-

tor’s funds are gone. The notice also alleges that Rush engaged in unregistered trading, thereby breaching securities laws. “These allegations have not been proven,” wrote the BCSC on its website. Counsel for the executive director will apply to set dates for a hearing into the allegations before a panel of commissioners on July 22. On Feb. 2, 2014, the Mutual Fund Dealers Association of Canada (MFDA) found that Rush engaged in misconduct by contravening MFDA rules by selling off-book, inappropriate securities to clients, and by failing to cooperate with the MFDA investigation. Rush is seeking a hearing and review of the decision.

To ensure the safety of our work crews, it will be necessary to interrupt electrical service for approximately 4 hours

Time: 4:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. When: Sunday, July 20, 2014 Where: The area affected is from Monte Lake including Paxton Valley Road, Barnhartville Road, Duck Range Road, and Hana Road, East to Falkland, including all side roads to Colebank Road and Cedar Hill Road. To prepare for this interruption and protect your equipment from damage, turn off all lights, electric heaters, major appliances and unplug all electronics. For the first hour after the power comes back on, please only plug in or turn on those electronics and appliances that you really need. This will help ensure the electrical system does not get overloaded.

An issue of mutual interest had local politicians behind closed doors, but no details are being provided. The Regional District of North Okanagan board held a joint meeting with members of Vernon and Coldstream councils Wednesday. “It’s an in-camera issue that has affected all jurisdictions,” said Rob Sawatzky, Vernon mayor, adding that provincial legislation does not allow him to disclose the topic. “It’s not an issue of

“It was the most efficient mechanism to deal with an issue that’s time sensitive,” said Sawatzky. Rick Fairbairn, RDNO vice-chairman, was also saying little about the agenda. “The purpose of a meeting like that gives an opportunity to inform multiple jurisdictions of a matter in a time-sensitive process,” he said. Doug Dirk, a Coldstream councillor, provided a similar response. “It was informational. It affects everyone and it’s an important issue for the region,” he said.

Heat impacts orchards Morning Star Staff

Hot weather has residents basking in the sun but it’s placing pressure on Okanagan orchardists. Recent high temperatures have impacted orchard operations throughout the valley. “The summer heat will add an extra challenge to getting crops off in good shape, but we want to assure our loyal customers that there is adequate supply of cherries from now through to August and even into September” said Fred Steele, B.C. Fruit Growers’ Association president. Fruit growth at hot temperatures will slow or stop, then resume when temperatures drop to normal temperatures for the season. Cherry harvesting is being done primarily before noon when temperatures are cooler and fruit

is being chilled as quickly as possible after picking. Fruit ripens more quickly as temperatures rise so the time available to harvest the fruit is shorter. “We are looking for local fruit pickers to get the crop off the trees faster than usual,” said Steele. Interested individuals can call Ron Forrest, with the BCFGA labour project, at 250-859-7503. “Right now, we have one order for 50 pickers that is unfilled and by next week, the tree fruit industry will need more workers,” said Steele. The apple season starts with early season varieties in mid-August and the regular apple season begins in September. “We are hoping for more moderate weather then, but the long range forecast is calling for more heat,” said Steele.

Councillor opposes new annexations into city richard rolke Morning Star Staff

Vernon’s firm policy on absorbing parts of neighbouring jurisdictions may be softening. The city has rarely turned down applications from property owners in Areas B and C to be annexed into Vernon, but that occurred Monday when a bid from a Pleasant Valley Road resident died in a tie-vote. “I will not support

any further annexations even for sewer,” said Coun. Catherine Lord. “The people who built out there knew they were outside city boundaries (and did not have access to sewer).” Lord’s actions are directed only towards new applications and not annexation proposals that are already being processed by the city. The Regional District of North

“I will not support further annexations.” — Catherine Lord

Okanagan’s electoral areas have insisted that individual annexations into Vernon undermine their tax base and ability to provide services to constituents. They also claim that the electoral

area’s sense of community is also impacted. “The electoral areas have made it clear that it erodes their base,” said Lord, adding that the electoral area directors have asked for annexa-

tions to cease. “Until we can get agreement with the regional district, I will agree with what they want.” Lord also isn’t convinced that there is a need for the City of Vernon to expand its land base. “We have identified a lot of empty space (within the city) for future growth,” she said. The city is currently reviewing how it han-

dles annexation applications, largely because of the opposition that has come from adjacent jurisdictions. “It’s a reflection of the uncomfortable position we’ve found ourselves in,” said Mayor Rob Sawatzky.

Cunningham plans on visiting the site with a dog owner and she says some suggestions for allowing dogs to be off-leash have been made, including possibly installing a snow

We are all witnesses again

love the tradition every four years of the World Cup and LeBron James opting out of contracts. This time Germany won the World Cup and James is going back home! Sports rarely allows the chance for athletes to play in their hometown. Mike Trout plays in Los Angeles, but is from New Jersey. Sidney Crosby plays in Pittsburgh and is from Cole Harbour. It is something that never happens, but strangely enough it will for the second time in Cleveland. When I heard the news, I felt relieved for Cleveland. They get to celebrate their son returning home. The Bleacher Report Tyler Lowey ranked Cleveland to be the most tortured sports city in North America. Cleveland hasn’t lifted a trophy since 1964 and ESPN is constantly reminding them of painful sports memories such as “The Shot,” “The Drive,” “The Fumble,” “Red Right 88,” and recently, “The Decision.” In the past three months, the most tortured sports city acquired three polarizing athletes. These players have the ability to put on sun glasses and hold up a giant neurotransmitter and erase painful memories like they’re Agent J and Agent K for the Men in Black series. The Cleveland Browns drafted Johnny Manziel 22nd overall in the recent NFL draft, the Cavaliers drafted their second-straight Canadian first overall in Andrew Wiggins and now the King is returning to Quicken Loans Arena. Last year you couldn’t give me enough Palm Bays to watch Browns or Cavaliers games. I can’t believe I’m about to write this, but, I plan on rearranging my schedule to watch their games this season. Just remember how much of a joke the NBA Eastern Conference was last year. The Fulton senior boys could have competed for the final playoff spot in the East. It’s really remarkable how one athlete can

At RAndoM

transcend the landscape of the NBA. James’ move set off a domino effect which started the facelift of the East turning it into a competitive conference once again. James morphs any team he goes to into an automatic contender. The Cavs will still be favoured to come out of the East despite a roster filled with question marks, inexperience and players who still get ID’d. Remember when James won 66 games with the Cavaliers in 2008 with a roster that featured Mo Williams and J.J. Hickson? They seem to possess a stronger roster now with a two-time all-star Kyrie Irving and Wiggins, who is predicted to be the next great one. If scrutinized owner Dan Gilbert is able to pull off one or two trades, this team could book their ticket to the finals. Rumors have been swirling that they are looking to acquire Minnesota Timberwolves big-man and 2008 fifth-overall pick Kevin Love. With the T-wolves, Love was an absolute monster with a beard. He set an NBA record with 53 consecutive games with a doubledouble in 2010-11. Now imagine bringing him to the East where nobody can seriously guard him? He would shred the East. He could average 35 points and 25 rebounds in his sleep. Forget the fact that their might only be one or two players that can guard him, he is going to be the second or third option on offence, which will allow him to do whatever he wants on the floor. The part that gets me is that Love never considered heading to Cleveland before James returned. Ever since Minnesota didn’t sign him to the max deal three years ago, he has been counting down the days until next summer when he can return to his home in California. Until now. One player’s decision to head back home to a place where he was exiled from has changed the entire Eastern Conference. Great sports stories such as these are the reason why I got into the industry. It also gives me hope that one day other championshipdeprived cities can turn things around. You’re up next Toronto.

So the provincial government essentially wants to pave the way for development in Kalamalka Lake Provincial Park. That’s the feeling some local politicians are getting following a meeting earlier this week where the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure laid out its plans. Technically it’s still in the proposal stage, but apparently the ministry wants to upgrade and widen Cosens Bay Road through the park significantly. So no wonder some are raising their eyebrows at the proposal. Not to mention the fact that this has apparently been in the plans for about 10 months, yet this is the first anyone around here has heard about it. In fact the proposed plans were revealed to Coldstream council in an in-camera meeting Monday. So it makes you wonder what the big secret is all about? All of the details will hopefully come out sooner than later with a public meeting to gain some input on the plan. That’s where the public can decide whether the plans are worth impacting the park for. One valid push for the plan is safety. Cosens Bay cabin owners have vocally shared their safety concerns regarding the road in letters to The Morning Star. The road has also been identified as one of the worst in the province, as it placed third in the BCAA Worst Roads survey this year. The main reason Cosens Bay Road earned so many votes was for pedestrian/cycling safety. So perhaps the ministry has plans to build a safer route for the non-motoring public with the upgrade? Whatever the reason, some aren’t convinced that this road needs attention when busier roads such as Silver Star topped the worst roads list.

been there So I see that a new cultural strategy is being planned for Greater Vernon, to be advised by a consultant, with input from the public. Been there, done that. Several years ago, I and others were invited to a seminar led by the same department, which asked for input from Vernon cultural groups, to decide on a new cultural strategy. That night, two strong recommendations were made from the floor. One was immediately dismissed as impossible due to staffing structure. Hence, it was not even listed as a recommendation. The other, that artists should not be expected to join committees, was also dismissed because the form of the process had already been decided. Oh, and did I mention that a consultant had been hired as well? About a year later, I asked the group leader what had happened with the new strategy, and was told the whole thing had been cancelled. So here we go again with the same group leader and another consulting fee, even though Vernon’s cultural community already has numerous very smart people who can, I’m sure, make better decisions for Vernon than an outsider. As for the public being involved, huh?

New location fails trailer test

ey Vernonites, I'm not laughing and I don't think you will either. Please take a drive, see for yourself and make a difference before it's too late. I drive a one-ton truck with a fifth-wheel trailer and I consider my driving skills to be better than adequate. I took a drive the other day to see what a tourist would be faced with at our new tourist information centre. I am positive the decision made to close down the north and south info centres was based strictly on money. The decision was definitely not made by someone who actually pulls a trailer. The next time you take your trailer out,

Friday, July 18, 2014 - The Morning Star A9

please try out our new info centre. I need to say no more. At the very least, just drive into the info centre with your truck and envision pulling a trailer. Please stop the people in city hall in Vernon, who actually work for us, from wasting our money and upsetting the tourists who come here. It never seems to matter what we say. City hall just does what it wants. By the way, what is going to happen to the old info centres? Is private business waiting in the wings for some of the most lucrative real estate entering our city? Paul elmont

Even though the Vernon public voted against building the new library, the project went ahead anyway. Jim elderton dogs under control? First of all, thank you to the hundreds of dog owners who have their dogs under control. I am not going to repeat any recommendations for people to adhere to leash law signs. If you read them and ignore them, however, please read on. On a recent Sunday, my wife, who is a senior, was knocked over by an exuberant large pup in Kal Park. The dog owner was upset and apologized. That’s not the issue. The dog was friendly all right, but my wife was knocked over, cutting her hands on some gravel. She is tough, though, and has recuperated What if it was a smaller person, say a three-year-old? Or someone’s grandmother? We all know the answer. It shouldn’t happen. My concern is that the dog was not under control and I am going to offer a slightly different perspective to dog owners who think that their dog is OK. My wife and I both like dogs. In fact, we like them enough to have had seven dogs or more in a 45-year time period, with one living as long

as 14 years. My wife co-owned a dog and raised pups. The dogs we enjoy are the ones that have been trained. I recall during a training session the instructor stating that we were to imagine we were wearing white pants or a white dress, including white shoes. I think you understand why. When the dog was at heel, it was not to brush against you. When you called the dog, it was to come and sit in front of you. Upon command it was to lie down. It was not supposed to come up, beat its tail around your legs, and slobber on your hands. I see people with dogs off-leash and some are very responsive. If your dog will come on command 100 per cent of the time, and will do a sit/stay for 10 minutes, and not get you dirty, then probably you can make an argument for them being under control. If a deer comes on to the scene and your dog bolts, it’s not under control. Some people are better than others with dogs, just as some people are better working with people. If you are not good at correcting your dog, please consider have someone work with you and your dog. Seniors and little folks will be

that much safer. Please consider the white clothes rule anywhere when you have your dog in a public place where there are other people. tom skinner great staff Recently, I had to attend the ambulatory care department of Vernon Jubilee Hospital for a routine procedure. All of the staff I encountered were cheerful and informative, but in particular, I enjoyed chatting with one prep nurse, Jane. She had to put an IV in my hand, not my favourite place, but did it so painlessly and I am amazed that, two days later, there is no bruise. There's not even a spot to indicate where she put the needle. And the best part was she was retiring after decades of service. Her last day was the next day. All of her co-workers were passing by and chatting about missing her and the fun they had at her farewell party. Jane made my procedure a lot more pleasant and I really appreciated her cheerfulness and thoroughness. So I just wanted to say to Jane, have a wonderful retirement. You certainly deserve it and thank you for everything. terri nicholson

located in Armstrong. The general recommendations were contained in a fire service review which proposed that improvements were needed to provide an additional bay for the new truck to allow for safe storage, maintenance of all apparatus, as well as contemporary facilities for training and other activities. Improvements will be done in two phases. “I fully support moving forward into phase one of this two-stage process leading to a safer, better facility for our valued firefighters who provide our two communities with an outstanding public safety service in a very cost effective way,” said Spallumcheen Mayor Janice Brown. “I support our fire department having what they need to respond for our community.” Phase one will include a review of the fire hall project to date including preliminary plans prepared by the architect. There will be a preparation of preliminary budget for the plans, recommendations for plan improvements using the knowledge of fire hall construction and renovations, as well as opportunities to improve efficiencies and reduce costs. An updated preliminary budget based on that analysis will be prepared, as will a preliminary schedule for design and construction and a review of preconstruction planning, design and construction options. Phase one is expected to be completed within eight-to-10 weeks at which point joint councils will determine the next steps. The firm of Liberty Contract Management, which has extensive experience in such fire hall projects, was recommended by the fire review consultants and have been selected to undertake the first phase of the project with a budget of $13,000.

A local home is hoping the community can help cover some unexpected costs for one of their own. Aberdeen House is home to 14 adults with mental health issues, staff and two well-loved cats. Last week, Tux, their favorite feline, had to be taken to the vet for medications and treatment. The vet bill for Tux was close to $500. “Aberdeen operates on a slim and trim budget and manages its affairs with an eye towards value and quality,” said Sue Rossi, with the Canadian Mental Health Association, which operates the home. “With rising costs of water, heat, gas and food, any little extras are out of reach for Aberdeen.” The residents managed to raise $115 to help cover the bill and the vet clinic has given Tux’s outstanding balance a grace period of two weeks. Therefore Tux’s owners are making a plea to the public to help cover the expenses. “Tux was adopted and is well loved by everyone at the house,” said Rossi. “Tux provides thera-

Bills delayed Morning Star Staff

Vernon residents will get city utility bills late. Second-quarter utility bills received through the mail or accessed through MyCity on the city’s website will be delayed for up to two weeks. This delay is due to the change in fees following the implementation of the MultiMaterial B.C. recycling program. Fee recalculations are part of the transition in billing services following the switch to MMBC, as well as ensuring that all statements are correct. The city expects that updated utility statements will be available on or before July 28.

The No Wake Flotilla will take place July 27 and all non-motorized craft are invited to join the fifth annual paddle down the Shuswap River. Last year’s event attracted more than 60 craft, including kayaks, row boats, canoes, stand-up paddle boards and a big canoe from Kingfisher. “Celebrate the many non-motorized ways to enjoy the beautiful river environment and to raise awareness about the effects of boat wakes on the shoreline, aquatic ecosystem and other river users,” said Jean Clark, with the Lower Shuswap Stewardship Society. The launch will start at 10 a.m. at Grindrod Park. A shuttle bus will be available for those paddlers who want to leave their vehicle at Mara Provincial Park. You can drop your boat at Grindrod Park and then drive your vehicle to Mara Park. The

bus will depart Mara Park at 9:40 a.m. to take participants back to Grindrod Park in time for the launch. There will be a lunch and bathroom stop at Mara Hall at noon. Paddlers must bring their own lunches and life jackets. “The shuttle bus was full to capacity last year,” said Clark. “In an effort to better manage the bus and timing, the society is asking that you RSVP. If necessary, the bus will make two runs in the morning.” If you would like to utilize the shuttle bus, reserve a spot by e-mailing lowershuswap@gmail. com or calling Clark at 250-838-7299. Individuals looking for a shorter paddling adventure can join the group at Mara Hall at noon to paddle the lower stretch of the Shuswap River to Mara Provincial Park. The event will wrap up at Mara Park at about 2 p.m. with refreshments on the beach.

Quit giving the Kelowna Raiders powerplay chances and the Armstrong Shamrocks can force a third-and-deciding game in the Thompson Okanagan Senior Lacrosse League final. Failure to accomplish that mission tonight in Game 2 at 7:30 at the Nor-Val Sports Centre will result in the Raiders lifting the championship trophy on the ‘Rocks’ home floor. The Shamrocks couldn’t beat the traffic, heat or Raiders in the series opener Tuesday, won by Kelowna 15-11. “We have to look to stay more disciplined if we want to win,” said veteran Armstrong goalie Chad Pieper. “If we keep giving them chances, this series is going to be over quick.” The game, played in 40-degree Celsius temperatures in the sweat box that is Kelowna Memorial Arena, was delayed 20 minutes to accom-

modate late arriving Shamrocks players who were caught in the traffic jam on Highway 97 as a result of a fatal accident. Cory Siegner and Patrick McMillan had three goals each for the Raiders, who enjoyed period leads of 6-4 and 13-9. Luke Bailey and Joe Brown each had 2+3. Carston Schlaak led the Irish with 2+5 while Steve Clark chipped in 3+3. Kyle Versteeg and Jarrett Medhurst added 2+2 while single markers went to Kriss Yargeau and Tyler Plante. Pieper made 51 saves as Kelowna outshot Armstrong 66-62. The Shamrocks will welcome back Pat Nelson, Rob Rintoul, Jamie Cockerill and Shaun Koenig to the lineup tonight. The quartet missed Game 1 due to work and other commitments. Game 3, if necessary, will be Tuesday in Kelowna.

Volleyball duo off to Western event ROGER KNOX Morning Star Staff

If nothing else, Vernon volleyball products Danny Aspenlieder and Troy Atkinson thought they would get in a good summer volleyball camp. They got that and more. The pair, both 16, were named to B.C.’s U17 boy’s volleyball squad that competes this weekend at the Western Elite championships in Edmonton, featuring the provincial teams from the four western provinces. “Going into it, there were a couple of levels to the tryouts, and I was thinking I’d

make the first level and get a good camp for the summer,” said Atkinson, a sixfoot-four right side hitter going into Grade 11 at Seaton Secondary. “I didn’t expect to make the provincial team, but I played really well and really felt like I earned a spot. It’s been fun spending a month here (Thompson Rivers University, Kamloops) playing volleyball.” Added the six-foot-five, left-side hitter Aspendlieder, who plays cross-town at Fulton Secondary: “It’s a great achievement. I’ve worked really hard to get better and

to try out for this team. To make it feels really great. The tryouts were intense but probably the most fun I’ve had this year.” Rivals in school, but teammates with the Vernon Volleyball Club, the hitting duo have been friends since mid-elementary school, when they played rep soccer together. The two then joined the club volleyball scene, culminating with their selection to the provincial squad. “At first I was shocked I made the team because there were a lot of good players at the camp,” said Atkinson.

“When they told me, Danny was right beside me and we were both very happy and very excited to have made the team.” The competition in Edmonton will be, well, elite – hence the name – but the Vernon pair thinks B.C. will be in the hunt for gold. “I think one of our strongest assets is defence and turning that into an attack and transition kill,” said Aspenlieder. “Our blocking is very good.” Added Atkinson: “Our team is very well-rounded. Our coach (Nathan Bennett) has said there’s no real starting lineup.”

Midget C’s capture bronze Morning Star Staff

The Vernon Kal Tire midget AA Canadians pounded their rivals from Kelowna to take home bronze in the Valley of the Champions tournament. Vernon spanked the Kelowna Jays 9-1 in the consolation game in Kelowna. Shelby Hartwig was red hot with the bat, going 3-for-4 with three RBI to lead a well-balanced attack. Tyler Lacktin Doyle went the distance allowing six hits, struck out nine and was MVP, while shortstop Keenan Joly made some highlight reel plays on defence. “This was the best group of players I have ever coached,” said Canadians’ coach Terry Chudyk. The Prince George Knights clipped the C’s 10-4 in the semifinals. Vernon came out slugging in the first with four runs on six hits, but couldn’t put together a second push once Prince George made a pitching change to go with their staff ’s ace, a player the C’s believe the Knights were saving for the tournament final. The one they call ‘B Man,’ Brenden Zupp, was solid at second base and was game MVP. Dylan Emmons took the loss in going the distance, striking out seven.

Dr. Lee/Squires Four Pub downed the Chick Kickers 4-1 at Marshall Field #3. Jacquie Hansen set up Jill Rintoul, who blasted one from 20 yards to open the scoring for Dr. Lee (13-0-1). With minutes remaining in the first half, Lori Shippy found Rintoul in tight who buried it short side. In the second half, Irene Arrotta found Hansen 40 yards down the field, and Hansen was able to slide one past the keeper. The Kickers (11-2-1) trimmed the lead down to two, but Shippy put the game on ice with a header on a lovely cross from Deanna Baker. The defensive line of Bobbi Powell, Dana Reid, and Melissa Tkachuk shut down the Chick Kickers forwards throughout the match

Ava Franklin of the Shuswap Merlot send a shot on net as Gail Atha of the Goplen Drillers narrowly ducks out of the way Tuesday night at Marshall Field #1. McLennan added a single as the Rosters bounced back from their biggest loss of the season. Keeper Peggy Schepp battled through injuries to preserve the tie for Rosters. VQA (4-7-2) trailed 4-2 with 20 minutes remaining when Carla Gibson headed home a goal that looked like

it was a highlight from the World Cup. Jane Sutton sniped a pair and Gibson added one more. The Gray Monk/Longhorn Pub Impact blanked the Controllers 2-0 at MacDonald Park. Kim Wiebe scored a rightfooted cross from 20 yards for

the Impact (8-2-3) and Janelle Smithson tapped in the winner from Suzie McGuigan. The Controllers (6-6-2) thought they scored the equalizer minutes later, but the play was ruled offside. Denise Bourdon was hustling all over, winning battles for the ball and keeper Derri Ann Cooper returned with a shutout.

the net. The Eagles (9-5) scored on a shot from distance and off of a beautiful free kick that curved around the wall. Christian Millville was Man of the Match for the tire guys. He played excellent defensively in centre midfield and anchored his team on the pitch. North Enderby Timber and Revelstoke Stallions clashed with sole possession of second place at stake. NET shut out the Stallions 6-0 at MacDonald Park. The game was scoreless after a smoky first half. The Timber (9-4-1) took advantage of a shorthanded Revelstoke club with six goals in the second half. Brent Poulsen dangled a few

defenders before hooking one around the keeper in the 60th minute. Less than one minute later, Mike Bennett streaked down the wing with a burst of speed and crossed it to Alex Farina for the tap in. Graham Ross fearlessly slid to break up a Revelstoke clearing attempt and found Dan Aikema, who sent it home. Bennett sniped a single and then set up Farina for another tap in. Bryndon Buckham’s booming left-footed volley found the top corner in the 85th minute. Ean Ross collected back-toback shutouts for the Timber. He made several key saves to keep the game scoreless in the first.

The Timber toppled TurnKey Controllers 8-0 Sunday in an evening makeup game at MacDonald Park. Bennett’s hat trick in the heat earned him the simplyfrugal.ca Man of the Match, Bennett’s first came in the first half as he one-timed a Lendrit Ademi cross. Veteran Graham Ross added a pair. The first was a rocket from the 18 that blasted past the diving keeper. Bennett inherited the ball following some gorgeous passing in front for the tap in, and completed his hatty with a world-class strike from 28 yards. NET added three insurance goals late. The league playoffs start Wednesday night.

Cleary, Whitling provide MFC tricks Morning Star Staff

The Monashees Football Club picked up a pair of hat tricks from Cam Cleary and Nathan Whitling on a scorching evening in the Shuswap. MFC cranked the Salmon Arm Outlaws 8-2 in North Okanagan Men’s Soccer League action Wednesday night in Salmon Arm. Scoreless at half, MFC (3-91) came out on fire with the hat tricks and a pair of snipes from Alberto Lopez. The Outlaws fell to 0-14. The NOD Eagles Homes blanked Peters Tirecraft 2-0 at Marshall Field #2. The Tiremen (2-11) were persistent with great passes and plays through the middle, but couldn’t bear down in front of

The only downside Ty Cheyne can see about participating in rugby 7s at the B.C. Summer Games in Nanaimo this weekend is the travel itinerary. The Fulton Grade 9 student left for Nanaimo on a bus with Zone 2 Okanagan teammates at 1 a.m. Thursday in preparation for the opening ceremonies and start of competition today. â€œLeaving at 1 a.m. is ridiculous,â€? laughed Cheyne, who helped the Maroonsâ€™ Grade 8 rugby squad in the spring go undefeated. A back who can play wing or outside centre, Cheyneâ€™s speed had something to do with him being picked for the Okanagan squad. â€œI had more practise time than the other players and while Iâ€™m not one of the strongest players, I have the skills and my speed definitely helps me,â€? said Cheyne, who only took up the sport a year ago, but has participated in dad Gord Cheyneâ€™s youth touch rugby program the last two years.

ROGER KNOX/MORNING STAR

Vernonâ€™s Ty Cheyne will compete in Rugby 7s for the Zone 2 Okanagan squad at the B.C. Summer Games this weekend in Nanaimo. Dad will be in Nanaimo as an executive member of the Okanagan team. â€œItâ€™s going to be nice to have my dad there supporting me and our team,â€? said Cheyne. â€œItâ€™s also going to be nice to know somebody else on the team.â€?

The Okanagan squad had about five tryout practices and participated at a tournament in Vancouver to pick the squad that will compete in rugby 7s, which differs from regular rugby in that there are only seven players on the field (as opposed to 15), and play goes for seven minutes. â€œThe 7s game has much more of an open field and you canâ€™t stay still, you have to move the ball,â€? said Cheyne. â€œItâ€™s seven minutes of intense running.â€? Cheyne is a big fan of the legendary New Zealand All Blacks international squad, and one of its players, Conrad Smith. â€œI like the flow of rugby,â€? he said. â€œIf you run and you get tackled, you know your team is going to help you. Itâ€™s more of a team game.â€? Early morning travel aside, Cheyne is eager to begin competition today. â€œIâ€™m looking forward to the B.C. Games experience, and to the tournament,â€? he said. The Vernon Youth Touch Rugby program donated $500 towards expenses for the Zone 2 rugby 7s squad.

Big rig complaints surface The City of Vernon is receiving complaints about commercial vehicles or other large vehicles parking or travelling through residential areas. Some of these concerns include fumes, noise from early morning startups or late evening arrivals, monopolizing parking, concerns over the safety of children, lengthy periods of idling or even just the esthetics of having a large truck next door. “While we do not restrict large vehicles travelling Laing Gahr through residential areas, unless the route is marked as no heavy trucks due to engineering concerns, regulations are in place to deal with more ongoing concerns,” said Tanya Laing Gahr, communications co-ordinator. The traffic bylaw restricts on-street parking in residential zoned areas between 7 p.m. and 7 a.m. for all commercial vehicles more than seven metres in length, for all commercial vehicles more than 1,134 kilograms or for all vehicles designed to burn diesel fuel that are not passenger cars or pickup trucks. The city’s zoning bylaw provides further restriction on private property.

B.C. Government and Service Employees Union faculty members at Okanagan College have ratified a new contract. Following local ratification by union members and the college board, the Post-Secondary Employers’ Association board provided the final ratification for the settlements between Okanagan College and BCGEU Local 707. The terms of the new agreements for the faculty unions are from April 1, 2014, to March 31, 2019. The agreements provide for a 5.5 per cent wage increase over the five years of the term, with the potential for additional increases if the B.C. economy exceeds the annual forecasts set by the Economic Forecast Council during the last four years of the agreement.

“It does not allow a commercial vehicle in excess of 4,100 kilograms licensed gross vehicle weight on a lot in a residential zone unless parked or stored in a fully enclosed permanent building,” said Laing Gahr. Short-term parking during daylight hours for the purposes of delivery, service or construction on the property is permitted. Large pickup trucks, used primarily as family passenger vehicles, are exempt from these provisions. “These regulations work in combination to ensure that reasonable access to property is maintained, and restrict the conflicts that can occur with other residential uses or with the residents themselves,” said Laing Gahr.

USED CARS TO BE

d by thousands! e h s Sla Some down to 1 $

leading automobile dealer located in Vernon is over stocked with used car inventory and will be SLASHING used car and truck prices to an all time low Saturday, July 19, 2014, sun, wind or rain. Art Brienen, Used Car Manager for Vernon Dodge Jeep has just announced plans to hold a used car and truck event with used cars and trucks being SLASHED down thousands of dollars. Due to the current market conditions, we have an extra amount of used cars, trucks and lease returns. Now we need to reduce the number of vehicles in our used car inventory. During this SLASHER sale every used car and truck will be sold for hundreds to thousands below the original price. Brienen said, “Our customers should find these prices as low as auction prices in many cases.” Here, every used car and truck is on sale! FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE AND NO BIDDING. It’s the perfect opportunity to get a good quality used car at the lowest price possible, including some being SLASHED down to one dollar. All cars and trucks will be on display at 4807-27 Street, Vernon at 8:30 AM on Saturday, July 19, 2014. All vehicles will be opened so that buyers may

inspect the vehicles for one hour before the SLASHER begins SLASHING PRICES at 10:00 AM. Whoever is sitting behind the wheel at 10:00 AM when the prices are SLASHED on the windshield will be given first opportunity to purchase the vehicle at the SLASHED sale price. This innovative approach to selling used vehicles will make it easy and quick for anyone in the market looking for a good used car or truck at a very low price, with no hassle. There will be 3 separate visits from the SLASHER: 10 AM, 3 PM and 5 PM. We’ve got over 2 million dollars in used inventory to choose from. Our total inventory will be over 200 used cars and trucks. We want to remind everybody that this is a one-day sale only. When our inventory has been reduced, we will remove the sale prices and return to normal operations. Since we are a local business, we would like to give back to the community. Brienen said, “We would rather allow local people to buy these vehicles than wholesale them at an auction.” Any questions can be directed to 250-545-2261. Vernon Dodge Jeep opens at 8:30 AM on Saturday, July 19, 2014 and the sale starts at 10 AM SHARP! Buyers must be 18 or older with a valid driver’s license.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) You need to take control of your life. Fight boredom by checking out activities that will help you meet new people and experience new ways of doing things. Embrace change. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Disagreements will get overheated if you aren’t willing to back down. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, and giving everyone due consideration will show that you can be gracious. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) Explore new places today. Make plans to travel somewhere you have

never been before. Don’t stay home just because you don’t want to go somewhere alone. You’ll meet someone special if you venture out. PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) Put some effort into inexpensive projects. Your imagination will spark a few innovative ideas that won’t break the bank. Show others how versatile and inventive you can be. ARIES (March 21-April 19) It will be tough to get along with everyone today. Take a back seat and avoid potentially contentious situations. Move on to a tranquil, relaxing setting. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Don’t abuse the trust that others place in you. Being deceptive or dishonest could cause a lot of friction. Don’t risk losing a valuable friendship. Sit tight and let someone else make the first move. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will face criticism if you are too outspoken. Don’t waste your energy on people who don’t share your vision. Collaborate with those who think along the same lines as you.

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 MORE THAN ONE WAY TO FIND 13 The first sentence of “1984” by George Orwell is, “It was a bright cold day in April, and the clocks were striking 13.” When you bid to a grand slam, there is normally not much point in counting losers, because you cannot afford any. You might as well only try to find 13 winners. In this deal, which 13 tricks should South hope to take in seven hearts after West leads the diamond three? The bidding had a modern tinge. South’s four-club rebid was a splinter, showing at least game-forcing values with a singleton or void in clubs. North then control-bid (cue-bid) his diamond ace,

which East doubled to ask for a diamond lead. And South optimistically took a shot at all of the marbles. Outside hearts, South has six winners: four spades, one diamond and one club. He could rely on the diamond finesse and try to take six trump tricks. But East’s double strongly suggests that that finesse will fail. Instead, declarer should play for seven trump tricks. But which seven? South should use dummy’s winners to remove East’s trumps and take three ruffs in his hand. However, he has to be careful with his communications. Declarer wins with dummy’s diamond ace, ruffs

a club with a high trump (queen, king or ace), returns to dummy with a heart, ruffs another club high, leads a heart to dummy, and ruffs the last low club. Then, after a spade to dummy’s queen, declarer draws trumps and claims. It is a classic dummy reversal.

If your dentures shift while chewing or talking and you are tired of those embarrasing moments, consider dental implants for stabilization. Imagine your denture snapping into place, feeling solid and secure. Often a new denture is not necessary. Your existing denture can be made to fit your new implants.

It was a hot, hazy Midsummer’s night, but that didn’t stop people from dressing in their finery and supporting the Vernon Public Art Gallery at its main fundraiser of the year. Wednesday’s 28th annual Midsummer’s Eve of the Arts garden party and art auction saw patrons taking in the vista atop rows of grapes at Turtle Mountain Vineyards while sipping on local libation and noshing on delectable hors ‘d’oeuvres and listening to the jazz stylings of band Kath and the TomKats, who played throughout the night. “We have an excellent turnout. It’s a delightful garden party atmosphere,” said Ruth Hoyte, chair of the Midsummer’s committee and VPAG board member, while taking in the sights. “We are definitely appreciative of our sponsors, the wonderful support of our volunteers, artists and our new caterers Olive Us, Monashee’s Bar and Grill and Cracked Pepper along with Gum Tree Catering. Baron Insurance (along with title sponsor Predator Ridge) has also come on board as a main sponsor this year. Some of the staff is here helping with the event.” The night’s star attraction, the art, saw bids coming from both the silent and live auction, the latter presided over by auctioneers Peter and Don Raffan. When all was said and done, the VPAG managed to raise approximately $33,000 for its ongoing operations and educational programming. “We grossed more than last year, which is great. We are thrilled with that, but we still need to work on getting our auction bids up a bit,” said VPAG executive director Dauna Kennedy Grant. The big sellers of the night included two acrylic and collage works on paper by Commonage artist Bryan Ryley, which went for $1,600 and $1,300 respectively. Doug Alcock’s metal and glass sculpture, Ruby Tuesday, went for $1,200 while Rick Bond’s painting of Silver Star village received $1,100. “The feedback so far has been very positive and we’re looking forward to next year,” said Kennedy Grant. “We welcome the input from people on all aspects of the event,” added Hoyte, saying this year event organizers took the suggestion to extend the live music into the evening after the live auction. “It allows for people to socialize and also puts the focus on the live auction.” Midsummer’s also puts the focus on the need for amenities such as the public art gallery to support arts and culture in the community, added Hoyte. “My passion for the art gallery expands into the community, embracing the talent we have and our programs to develop young artists. I am looking forward to us growing into a new facility one day and the opportunity for us to showcase all that we can be.”

Arts Apes don’t monkey around Dawn of the Planet of The Apes

NEWS

fter an infectious disease seems to have wiped out the entire human species, an overgrown Earth belongs to the animals. Near San Francisco, the chimpanzee Caesar leads his kingdom of super-smart apes through a relatively peaceful existence in the forest. That peace would continue if it wasn’t for the fact that small pockets of humans, resistant to the virus, have survived and are about infringe on ape property. We say, “Apes want no war with humans, but apes will fight.” TAYLOR: Mr. Howe has taken his family on a summer vacation, so I am left to fend for myself. I didn’t even bother to take a guest to the film to help me review it. Call me selfish if you like... I was really looking forward to this film. I enjoyed the first Rise of the Planet of the Apes. I think Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is even better. Where the first film explained the creation of the drug that gave the apes their humanistic intelligence, emotions, language and even art, the second film shows you the pitfalls of society. (Yes, it’s another film to make you feel guilty about being human.)

Caesar has been decorated for the hunt in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes.

ReelTaylor Reviews and Howe Only with this film, the shame is shared. After all, these apes aren’t monkeying around. They get dirty just as we do. TAYLOR: I know what you mean; you are selfish and perhaps have a bit of a split personality. However, I agree with you. This is a film that has more meat on its bones than the first. We are getting to the crux of the matter, essentially that there are good and bad apes as well as good and bad humans. There seems to be a consensus that living together in peace is possible when expressed by

words, but a little more difficult to achieve in deed, mostly due to the warrior mentality. It was interesting to me that Caesar, a leader trusted and respected even by his most fierce generals, was unable to sell the peace to them for very long, even when the bulk of the population wanted it. Cooperation leads to benefits, conflict leads to harm, these things are understood and yet ignored, simply for the sake of rage, or so it would seem. The piece de resistance had to be when, in a very human turn, Kobo, Caesar’s right hand ape, usurps Caesars power in a coup d’etat achieved by executing a false flag operation. TAYLOR: A false flag is when you commit some nasty bit of business yourself, then blame it on someone else, to start a war.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes therefore is a bit of a sociopolitical statement. It could even be said that it is monkey art imitating human life. But it’s also wrapped up in a surprisingly moving adventure about love, friendship, family, trust, and right and wrong. There are things wrong with the film. Sometimes the chimpanzees seem too human, sometimes the computer graphics are noticeable, but I’m pretty sure this is going to be in my top five favourite movies of the year. Oh, and Gary Oldman is in it, although the apes are the stars. – Taylor gives Dawn of the Planet of the Apes 4 monkey time pizza theatres out of 5. The film is currently playing at the Galaxy Cinemas in Vernon.

Men modernize synth pop Magic Man: Before the Waves

merican synth-pop quintet Magic Man’s debut

album, Before the Waves is a shiny, happy, festival friendly throwback to swirly 1980s’ elecDean Gordon-Smith tro-pop. Magic Man could be clones from the DNA of pastel hued synthesizer geeks like Tears for Fears and

sTReeT sounDs

Soft Cell except that the technology is kept in check and melody is strong throughout. Despite Magic Man’s synth derived resurrection sound, the group has a keen sense of inspiration in their music (Tonight). Vocalist, Alex Caplow is possessed of boundless good cheer and an energetic delivery. He doesn’t hold back. Likewise, the group matches his drive with shiny, happy songs aplenty. They know their craft inside and out: simple beats, cheesy sound effects, arcing keyboards and semi anthemic posturing. All this melodramatic delivery needs a big space in which to work its synthetic magic out.

Songs like Chicagoland aren’t breaking any new sonic ground or saying anything original but an appearance at Glastonbury or at least as a token synth band at a trendy hippie fest would illuminate its artificial power. Some tracks have hypnotic pull (Honey, Apollo) while others strive for crowd buzzing anthem status, (the un-Texan sounding Texas). The most compelling songs are the romantic ‘80s tinsel tunes that are so unabashedly up tempo that you wonder if the band is faking it (Paris, Catherine). Judging by the rest of the melodic synth love-in, they’re not.

C HECK I T O UT AT B OOKLAND THE BOOK OF LIFE

After traveling through time in Shadow of Night, the second book in Deborah Harkness’s enchanting series, historian and witch Diana Bishop and vampire scientist Matthew Clairmont return to the present to face new crises and old enemies. At Matthew’s ancestral home at SeptTours, they reunite with the cast of characters from A Discovery of Witches —with one significant exception. But the real threat to their future has yet to be revealed, and when it is, the search for Ashmole 782 and its missing pages takes on even more urgency. In the trilogy’s final volume, Harkness deepens her themes of power and passion, family and caring, past deeds and their present consequences. In ancestral homes and university laboratories, using ancient knowledge and modern science, from the hills of the Auvergne to the palaces of Venice and beyond, the couple at last learn what the witches discovered so many centuries ago.

Athelia celebrates 101st birthday Katherine MortiMer Morning Star Staff

Born in 1913, Athelia Marshall said the secret to a long life is a simple one: live each day at a time. “Take each day as it comes and do whatever you can,” she said. “Live a good life and live it to the fullest.” As Marshall prepares to celebrate her 101st birthday July 26, she looks back on all that she has seen in a life that began in Czar, Alta., a village in central Alberta. The First World War was about to begin and Marshall would be a wife and mother by the time the Second World War began. Married to Clark Marshall Nov. 11, 1932 in Nelson, Athelia and her husband lived in various places around the province, including Burton, Clark’s birth place. In the late ‘40s, the couple owned and operated the Burton General Store and Cafe. “There were a lot of truck drivers who came through to eat Mom’s pies — she was famous for them, especially her huckleberry pie” said her son, Stu. The parents of Ken, Lorne, Barbara, Sandra, Stu and Roger moved to Vernon in 1951, where Clark managed Bennett’s Hardware Store for more than 20 years, retiring in 1979. “There were tough times, especially during the Depression and money was pretty scarce, so we tried to raise all the food we could, preserving as much as we could,” said Athelia. “And we didn’t have modern conveniences — for laundry you had the old washboard, and you had to heat the water first.” With six children, and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Athelia always enjoyed baking, knitting and playing cards. Athelia and Clark enjoyed getting together for a game of crib and a rye and 7Up before dinner. Renowned for her home cooking, Athelia worked at the Vernon Army Camp in the ‘60s, where she put her skills to good use. “When I think of Mom I think of her cooking. I would come home from school and be greeted with the smell of fresh bread and pie baking in the oven,” said Stu. Athelia always maintained a large garden and in the ‘70s and ‘80s, she and Clark, who passed away in 2000, raised

Athelia Marshall, with a photograph of her siblings in the background, celebrates her 101st birthday July 26 with family and friends. chickens at the family’s cabin in Burton. A stroke three months ago only briefly slowed Athelia down, and while she isn’t able to enjoy all of the activities she once did, she has settled into her new home at Creekside Landing. “She was paralyzed on the left side and in hospital and here she is today — the doctors and everyone else couldn’t figure out how this happened,” said Stu. “What I admire about Mom is her resolve. Her mom lived to 100 so we live a long time in my family.” While granddaughter Sarah Marshall, 14, enjoys all of the conveniences of life as a student in the 21st century, her grandmother travelled to school in a horse and buggy. “She has had such a long life and I enjoy hearing about what life was like when she was a young girl,” she said, adding that a treasured family memento is a cook book filled with her grandmother’s recipes compiled by her aunt Sandra — the family enjoys the chance to whip up Athelia’s famous peanut butter cookies, butterscotch cookies and oat cakes.

Athelia and Clark Marshall on their wedding day Nov. 11, 1932 in Nelson. For Kelly, Athelia is a source of inspiration every day. “She inspires me in the way that she perseveres — it seems like she doesn’t get tired or complain, she just does what she needs to do and gets on with it,” she said.

Porter goes the distance Morning Star Staff

Porter Johnson outdid the competition at the recent MacKenzie Camp Golf Tournament at the Salmon Arm Golf & Country Club. Porter raised the largest sum of money for the tournament, bringing the total raised that day to a record $5,400. “We are very proud of Porter, who was our youngest golfer — way to go,” said Lorraine Powell, treasurer with the MacKenzie Camp Society. The funds raised go towards sending children to camp, employing young people for the summer and the operation of the camp. “Despite being rained out about half way through the tournament, the day was a huge success,” said Powell. “The horn sounded during a deluge of rain with thunder and lightning, requiring

25 golfers to scramble for shelter.” The MacKenzie Camp board would like to extend a big thank you to all of the hardy golfers and sponsors for their participation. “As well, a huge thanks to the merchants who donated prizes: Enderby Jewelers, Gilbert’s Auto, Gem Set Studios, the Howard Johnston Inn, the Salmon Arm Golf & Country Club, Enderby Auto Body, Central Hardware, Case Furniture, the Enderby Credit Union, and a campership for a week at camp donated by MacKenzie Camp,” said Powell. “We hope to see all of you at camp in the near future.” MacKenzie Camp is operated by the United Church of Canada and is located east of Enderby on Mabel Lake.

Christ’s agony. Mth. 26:38: Jesus: “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even unto death.” He knew what was ahead, Judas would betray him – with a kiss. The High Priest, custodian of Yahweh’s truth would pervert the Law in order to condemn Him. And the Jews would demand the release of a murderer, instead of their Messiah. His closest friends would deny and desert Him. Then the humiliation, shame and agony on the Cross. But he said: “Father forgive them, for they know not what they do.”

Fear the diseases, not the vaccines Denise Talarico

Special to The Morning Star

Did you know that in the last century, vaccines (also known as immunizations) have saved more lives than any other health intervention? The World Health Organization estimates that every year, more than two million deaths are prevented worldwide due to immunization. Today, parents in Canada, the United States and other developed countries have little to no knowledge of the ravages of diseases such as smallpox, polio, and measles. This is primarily because we rarely encounter these diseases anymore due to the success of immunization programs. Are immunization programs becoming victims of their own success? They just might be. As some parents question the importance of immunization, protection from these serious diseases weakens. Immunization is most effective when more members of the population or “herd” are immunized. High immunization rates keep diseases away. When parents decide not to immunize their children, herd immunity is weakened. Once herd immunity dwindles, diseases can resurface, even in developed countries. In the last couple of years we have seen pertussis outbreaks in some of our communities, and parts of our province are currently experiencing a measles outbreak. Both of these diseases can have serious consequences, yet the risk of serious complications from the vaccines is extremely low. Parents want to do what’s best for their children so it’s perfectly natural to have questions about vaccines. I encourage all parents to ask questions and do research in order to arrive at an informed decision. But please make sure your sources are credible. Be skeptical of pseudo-science and celebrity opinion. Seek out credible information sources by asking the following questions: What are the credentials

or training of the person giving the information? Is the information source also selling a product, service or alternative therapy? Is the information current and balanced? Are there scientific experts who can back up the information? Public health nurses are here for you and we want to hear your questions. Give us a call at your local health unit. If you prefer to get your information online, check out ImmunizeBC at www. immunizebc.ca. We can all work together to make vaccine-preventable disease a thing of the past. Denise Talarico is a public health nurse with Interior Health.

The engine is its strongpoint but it’s not just a one-trick pony. I like the interior a lot. The steering wheel is soft to the touch and I like that you can control various functions like the audio, Bluetooth, or cruise control from it. The centre stack has charm, too.

Whether you just drive it around the city or beyond, the Fiesta one-litre is a sturdy road companion with impressive fuel economy. Visit www.ford.ca for more information.

imentation that is going on in F1 will result in improvements to our everyday cars. That’s the beauty of this highly competitive sport that is so geared to winning. Changes come faster because there’s no chance to undertake testing that takes an age under normal testing. Last year, when I visited the Monaco Grand Prix as a guest of the Infiniti-Red Bull F1 race team, I chatted to Infiniti engineers who marvelled at the pace of improvement. Said one Infiniti engineer: “They do things so much more quickly than we can do under normal development processes because they have to. And the changes they make are so thoroughly tested on the track. It points two ways: sometimes what they do shows us the way to go but also the way not to go!” Hong Kong-based Infiniti has made a

very shrewd move in tying itself to the F1 team and particularly the reigning F1 champion Sebastian Vettel. The German racer is the marque’s Director of Performance. His association goes far beyond the typical celebrity endorsement, for he takes on a literal hands-on-the-wheel approach to his role. Last year, I drove with Vettel on the Paul Ricard circuit in the south of France. He talked enthusiastically about how he hoped to influence future Infiniti design and performance. At trackside, Infiniti personnel were impressed with his ability to tell them what changes they needed to make to its set up after only a couple of laps of the track. He has played a significant role in the development of the compact Q30, which should surface later next year. He has already left his mark on the all-new Infiniti Q50 sport sedan and Follow us at:

sports car enthusiasts pray a high-powered ‘Eau Rouge’ version of the car will hit the production line. Now if I were a betting man I would say confirmation of production might be soon. Yours truly, will join the team again next month at the Belgian Grand Prix, at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps . . . . location of the famous ‘Eau Rouge’ corner. We will drive Q50s from the south of England, through the Euro Tunnel and on to Spa. Immediately prior to the race weekend, yours truly will join international journalists in a behind-the-scenes visit to the team’s UK base in Milton Keynes. There we will learn something about the fast track work they carry out on the F1 cars. I suspect we will get a peek in what is in store for that car on your driveway and you will read about it here. keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

When the Porsche Cayenne was introduced, I questioned why the iconic sports car maker would build a grocery-getting SUV. Boy was I ever wrong. Porsche was not only successful introduced the Cayenne, it went into become its best-selling vehicle and – wait for it – I even bought one! So, with the latest introduction of a smaller SUV called Macan, there is less fanfare around the fact that it actually exists and more excitement about how it performs. The bigger question is with so many small luxury SUVs entering the market, is the Macan worth the $54,300 to get a base model or $82,200 for the turbo? LOOKS The Macan uses same platform as the Audi Q5, a Volkswagen Group sibling, but features an entirely different body shell and engine options. The most striking design element is the wide hood that folds over the side of the front fenders, making a seamless, wide stance that is impressive. The hood actually has cutouts for the headlamps and weighs only 17kg. “Side Blades” decorate the lower body of the Macan and can be ordered in black, a matching body colour or carbon fibre. The

back end of the Macan is particularly sleek and tidy, the taillights wrap around from the side and into the tailgate with precession. It’s the lack of a trunk release that makes the design so pleasing. Instead, a small button on the base of the windshield wiper that electronically releases the power tailgate. Below the tailgate four exhaust tips tell passersby that this is a powerful machine. INSIDE What the Macan has over the Q5 is a level of interior refinement that is almost unmatched in the car business. It’s finished with fine leather and a simple design that makes interacting with his SUV a joy. There are several drawbacks though. The cargo area is long but the rake of the rear window limits taking larger objects inside the car. The back seat I find too small for a family of four people. Since I own a Cayenne, I have a great perspective on the amount of room this Macan offers. Legroom is obviously tighter, headroom is just okay, it is the lack of space side-to-side that I find limiting. The Cayenne is a perfect family choice, the Macan I believe is suited for a single person or active professional couple. Not to say it couldn’t be use for family duty, it just wouldn’t be my choice.

Driving in back country roads the power was fantastic and the additional money could be spent upgrading the suspension from the base steel springs to steel with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) that allows the driver to set the firmness of the ride. This upgrade was noticeable on the track. The turbo comes standard with this setup but the added power and expense was only really noticeable when the Macan was pushed very hard around the racetrack.

handling can be very sporty if the buyer chooses. Here is the issue; the Macan can get very expensive in a hurry. All of the cars I drove in California were over $100,000 with features like PASM, additional air suspension and sport-chrono settings for the 7-speed duel clutch automatic. When I configure a base S with the features I would want like navigation, PASM, front and rear parking sensors, bigger wheels, Bose stereo and a few other odds and ends, comes to almost $75,000, never mind the $82,200 starting price of the turbo. Having recently driven the spectacular Audi SQ5, from which this car is based, that 354hp rocket is a bargain at $60,000, almost fully equipped. I like the Macan, and they will sell every one to people who want to have the latest, but I think the pricing structure is a bit over the top.

Show some respect for this fleet car favourite By Bob McHugh

The much-maligned fleet car Chevrolet Impala is the “I don’t get no respect!” sedan of the auto world, if I may quote the late Rodney Dangerfield. The Impala I rented in Hawaii early this year was confirmation of the beating, while on the job, that a car like this has to endure. Yet, you have to respect the sturdiness and competence that a car like this must possess. Body scars left by a multitude of indifferent drivers were visible evidence of the abuse.

Surviving a backwoods breakdown By Ian Harwood

Your off road fun can be seriously soured by a backwoods breakdown. Before you head out, give some serious thought about what you would do if a major breakdown occurred. Ask yourself if you could deal with it on a little used trail with no one else around. Firstly, you should never go it alone on a remote, seldom used trail. This is a good reason why 4X4 clubs are popular. (www.bc4x4.com) Even if you do not join a club, trail ride events are scheduled most times of the year and everywhere in the province. There is security here, with all kinds of help if you have any problems. It is also the best way to gain off highway experience. If you choose to go off alone, give yourself an out, do not go further than you can walk out and find help or shelter before dark. Carry food and water enough in case you have to spend the night with a broken down vehicle. Be prepared for an accident with first aid supplies and training on how to deal with injuries. Always let someone know where you are going and when you will be back. There are lots of things that can cause mechanical failures off-road. If you drive your vehicle regularly these things should show up when and where it is easier to deal with them than in the bush. Every situation is different so it would be impossible to list every possible cause and repair procedure for a breakdown. Here are two of the most common types, starting with tires. Getting a flat tire is by far the most common type of breakdown. Always carry a good full sized spare tire. You might want to pack a plug kit, but most of the tire problems I have seen are either not repairable. An essential item is an air compressor. Airing down to gain better traction is only outweighed by the increased ride quality. This will increase the odds of a lost tire bead however. Make sure your jack is in good working order. If you carry a High Lift Jack on the outside of your vehicle, check and oil it often. Another handy item for tire work is a nylon winch hold down strap. These can be put around the centre of the tread and tightened to re-seat the bead. The second is breakage due to over-working your vehicle. The weakest link in the drive train seems to be the U-joints.

If you break a U-joint there is a good probability that you will damage the yoke as well. This usually is not a trail side repair. Just remember that you are driving a four-wheel drive vehicle and you can most often get home with the front or rear drive disconnected. You will need to remove the drive shaft with the broken U-joint so that further damage is not done, then drive out in two-wheel drive. If this is a front axle steering knuckle U-joint, the half shaft will need to be removed and a rag stuffed into the end of the open axle housing. Print the following comprehensive list and post it on the fridge door!
