Smoke impacts air quality

Fire’s toxic chemical trail leaves questions Kathy Michaels CONTRIBUTOR

When fire crews attacked flames overtaking

Stewart Centre Saturday night, their focus wasn’t on how local waterways would suffer from the toxic mixture of chemicals

they unleashed. Now, as beaches are cordoned off and images of dead fish rising to the top of local streams make

the rounds, the environmental impact is front and centre. “This might be a wake-up call for every-

Cheryl Wierda STAFF REPORTER

A smoke advisory was issued Tuesday afternoon for the Kelowna area because of forest fire smoke that has been socked in the area since the weekend. However, an Environment Canada meteorologist said the smoky haze hanging over the Okanagan Valley will hopefully start to clear in the next few days. The B.C. Ministry of Environment, which issued the smoke advisory, said early Tuesday afternoon that the situation is expected to persist at least into Wednesday afternoon, but smoke concentrations will vary widely as winds, fire behaviour and temperatures change. Thunderstorms forecasted for last night could improve air quality conditions, but the potential for ongoing smoky conditions remains, depending on fire activity, the environment ministry said in the advisory. However, a change in air flow may also help the smoke situation, as meteorologist Doug Lundquist said Tuesday that the flow See Air A4

WADING UP to his waist in Mill Creek near the entrance to Okanagan lake, an environmental remediation worker inspects and removes debris from the creek after hazardous chemicals from the Stewart Centre fire on Saturday night were washed into the creek through the city’s drainage system from the water used to douse the blaze.

one to step back and look at our procedures and do the things we need to do to protect fish waterways and ensure safe water for wildlife and people,” said Patrick Whittingham, vice-president of the Oceola Fish and Games Club. “That (dead) fish was a canary in the coal mine. We see the fish that have died off, but we don’t know enough about the smaller organisms and what impact this will have on them now, and down the road.” Trouble is, as his club co-hort Rick Simpson put it, you’re “damned if you do, damned if you don’t.” “What were those guys supposed to do, let the whole block burn down?” he said. According to Jason Brolund, assistant chief of the Kelowna Fire Department, his crews had a good idea about the chemicals they’d be dealing with and their potential hazard, when they headed into the blaze. “We knew it was going to take water, and that the water would come out contaminated, but the fire department and province at large follows the B.C. emergency response management system,” explained. That set of principles prioritizes the safety of responders first, then the preservation of life, protecting public life, government infrastructure, property, then the environment comes into play.

“The decisions we made that night were tough,” he said. “It was about keeping people safe and fighting the fire—things were flying left, right and centre and we made decisions about protecting exposures on either side… there were 30 to 40 other busineseses that were saved and they could be impacted if we didn’t use water to put it out.” With the decision made to deluge flames a call was made to city crews to mitigate the impact of the pesticide, nitrate and glycol mixture that started to trickle into the storm drain system upstream near Lindahl Street, between Springfield Road and Sutherland Avenue. Their vacuum trucks were on scene, sucking up waste 45 minutes after the first blaze broke. Unfortunately, they didn’t realize they hadn’t stopped the flow until the next morning when a resident along Mill Creek noticed the water had changed colour. Others noticed dead fish on the banks, and as the situation became clear, beaches were closed to swimming. “In catastrophic situations like that, even the measures the city has in place won’t help deal with that volume of water that quickly,” said Rick Wagner, environmental emerSee Toxic A4

‘The flames were intense…’ Kathy Michaels

TWO different viewpoints of Saturday night’s fire at the Stewart Centre commercial building on Kirschner Road in Kelowna. The pictures were taken by Christi Battrick (left) and Jim Dickinson. The intensity of the fire was evident by the charred building remains the next day (lower photo).

CONTRIBUTOR

Emily Minaker got a call from her mother last Saturday around 10 p.m., saying their family business was on fire. “I just hoped it wouldn’t be a big deal, and everything would turn out OK,” she said of the thoughts that ran through her mind as she headed to Saturday’s Stewart Centre blaze. “Then I got there, and it was a ball of flame. I just felt so bad for my parents, they’ve worked so hard over the last eight years to build their business.” Their Kirschner Road shop, Pro Source Irrigation, suffered the same consequences as Univar, Reliable Welding Supplies, Stay Tuned Sports, and the Tile and Stone Factory. All were irreparably scorched in an inferno that took two hours for fire crews to overcome. At times the flames appeared so fierce, they seemed poised to overtake the Landmark buildings a block away and the drama of the blaze was heightened as explosions rocked the sky. It was such a spectacle, that locals and tourists alike pooled in adjacent parking lots to watch the fireworks unfurl. Jim Dickinson, who was on vacation with his family from Winnipeg,

SEAN CONNOR/CAPITAL NEWS

was one of those who witnessed the fire grow. “We were sight-see-

ing Saturday night in our friend’s motorhome, and drove by the fire just

after it started,” he said, noting they got there before emergency crews re-

sponded. “The flames were intense as a commer-

cial building went up in flames. As more spectators arrived, we (could) see and hear explosions. “One explosion even rocked the motorhome —this will be a vacation to remember.” It’s a fire to remember said Jason Brolund, assistant fire chief of the Kelowna Fire Department. “In my five year history with the department, aside from ’03, that was the biggest fire of my career,” he said, noting the talk around the fire hall afterward echoed those sentiments. What made it so complicated was the fact it was an industrial space, filled with shops chockablock with flammable agricultural supplies, forklifts with propane bottles and welding tools. All said and done, it was a destructive combination.

“The building loss was $5 million, and the contents loss was non-determined,” said Brolund. “It’s too complicated to determine.” For the Minakers, the loss is a bit more clear. “We still have our West Kelowna store, but all our computer systems and information was lost in that fire,” said Emily Minaker, noting that the family will run the business out of the shop on the other side of the lake. “But it’s really hard for my parents. They’ve worked hard, and even though it’s replaceable, they feel like part of our family is lost, but what can you do? You have to move on.” As of yet, nobody has established what started the Saturday night blaze, and the investigation continues. reporter@kelownacapnews.com

W POLICE

RCMP plan to deal with fire, Centre of Gravity well executed Kelowna RCMP say the August long weekend, typically one of the busiest in this city for police, was steady but “not overly difficult.” The major event of the weekend was Centre of Gravity and police say

it went smoothly. “It was well planned, well organized and well executed,” said Const. Steve Holmes. “This was evidenced by the ease of policing the event, which drew crowds

of up to 16,000.” He said the security company hired by event organizers did an excellent job of maintaining site security and also were helpful in evacuating the downtown beaches after concerns

Has Gout Affected You?

Gout is an extremely painful condition that can affect people of all races and ages. It can effect both men and women but it is more common in men. Gout used to be considered a problem for the rich, kings, gentry, and others who ate too much and drank too much wine. Gout is caused by a build up of uric acid in the blood which settles out as uric acid crystals in the joints. This causes pain, redness, and swelling. Classic signs of gout are swelling in the big toe, ankle, knees or elbow. The pain can be both chronic or can present suddenly. SciMed Research is starting a research trial to evaluate a new investigational therapy to lower uric acid, the cause of gout. If you have been diagnosed with or suffer from gout symptoms you may qualify to participate in this research trial. Please call Scimed Research to register for a no cost or obligation consultation to see if you are an appropriate candidate for this GOUT study.

Ministry of Environment. “Resources came in from all over B.C. with vacuum trucks, trying to collect the run-off.” To date, 1.2 million litres have been collected and diverted from the creek. Some are sitting in storage containers at businesses, others poured into other areas. “This was bad, but there were a lot of good actions that went on in this response as well,” Wagner said. “There have been lessons learned from the events and we will try to do better next time.” And it’s likely there will be another time, in another place. A few years ago, the same situation occurred in Prince George and every store that deals in fertilizers and pesticides carries the same toxic brew and there are no measures within zoning bylaws that stops them from doing so.

is no longer coming from the Central Interior, where much of the smoke caused by a number of forest fires has originated. “We’re not having a flow directly from the forest (fires) anymore,” said Lundquist. “The flow is coming from Alberta toward Vancouver.” He said the flows are forecast to stay away from the Central Interior for the near future. “Hopefully it will clear up in the next few days,” he said. As of Tuesday afternoon, air quality in the region was listed as five, or moderate risk. According to the provincial

government’s air quality health index, at that level the general population need not modify their usual outdoor activities unless they experience symptoms such as coughing and throat irritation. At risk people, including infants, the elderly and those with underlying medical conditions, should consider reducing or rescheduling strenuous activities. Interior Health said residents can take steps to reduce the exposure to smoke, and said individuals with heart or lung conditions may be more sensitive to the effects of smoke from forest fires. Tips include: • Stop or reduce outdoor physical activity if your breathing becomes

difficult or uncomfortable • Stay cool and drink plenty of fluids • Consider visiting a location, like a shopping mall, with cooler filtered air. Keep in mind that staying indoors may help you stay cool and provide some relief from the smoke, however many air conditioning systems do not filter the air or improve indoor air quality • Keep indoor air cleaner by avoiding smoking or burning other materials • Pay attention to local air quality reports, as air quality may be poor even though smoke may not be visible.

There’s nothing wrong with the common field cucumber, but the English cucumber has it beat in several ways: It is generally sold wrapped in plastic to reduce water loss, and so is usually not waxed and therefore does not need peeling. Also, it is usually called seedless (which is an outright lie), but its seeds are much smaller and less prominent. It is the seeds in a cucumber that make it bitter, so a semi-seedless English cucumber is less likely to be bitter. It is more easily digested than the field cucumber.

Motorcyclist bounces off Surveillance video two vehicles on Hwy 97 used in stabbing case A motorcyclist learned the hard way that you should look before you change lanes after he was involved in a crash with two vehicles Tuesday morning. The 22-year-old St. Albert, Alta., man was travelling east on Highway 97 and nearing the intersection at Spall Road when he apparently didn’t shoulder check before leaving the middle lane and travelling across the fast lane toward the left turn lane, police say. “His motorcycle was struck by an eastbound brown Jeep Cherokee that was in the fast lane,” said Const. Steve Holmes. “The collision with the Jeep pro-

pelled the motorcycle forward where it struck a brown Mazda sedan that was ahead of the motorcycle in the eastbound middle lane.” The damage to the Jeep and the sedan was minor to moderate and the occupants of those vehicles were not injured, Holmes said. However, the motorcycle received major damage and was not drivable. The driver limped away with minor injuries to his leg, which were treated by paramedics at the scene. The man was also given a Motor Vehicle Act ticket for doing an unsafe lane change, Holmes noted.

“There was some talk overheard that the people, the victims and the witnesses, knew the people that were involved that had done it,” said Holmes. It isn’t yet clear where the stabbing actually occurred, and police will be going over surveillance video in an effort to determine who was behind the stabbing.

Police will be turning to surveillance video in an attempt to determine who stabbed two Calgary men on Sunday morning after police say they got little cooperation in their investigation from the victims and witnesses. Around 1 a.m. on Sunday, police were sent to an alley behind the Level nightclub on Leon Avenue after receiving a complaint about an assault with a weapon that oc-

curred, said Const. Steve Holmes. Officers found two men, ages 29 and 36, from Calgary suffering from injuries “apparently caused by an edged weapon,” said Holmes. The two were taken to Kelowna General Hospital for treatment of non life-threatening injuries. However, he said police encountered “very little” cooperation from the victims and witnesses, but “were able to piece together that the incident was a targeted one.

W INTERIOR DRIVE FOR LIFE

Blood and cancer agencies unite for bloody donation battle Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

On Saturday afternoon 24-year-old Kristin Subotin lost her husband. Cody Subotin was 29 years old. He had had cancer for 16 of those 29 years, but died because an ulcer ruptured in his stomach. Without Canadian Blood Services, and the blood products they provide, the couple would never have gotten to say their goodbyes. “I want to do this because I want people to take it seriously,” said Kristin, who came down to the Kelowna Blood Donor Clinic to tell her story just three days after her husband’s passing. She wants anyone who can to contribute to the 13th annual Interior Drive for the Life Blood Donor Challenge. The challenge officially launched Tuesday and, though she’s barely had time to process her loss, she was out to make sure everyone in the community knows about it this week. “The blood is what gave us two more weeks with him,” she said. “I want people to know how important that was.” During those two weeks, Subotin went through 25 units of blood,

Cody & Kristin Subotin 30 units of platelets and 13 units of fresh frozen plasma. To put it in perspective, each donation is worth a unit. According to Tammie Watson, Canadian Blood Services community development coordinator, eight people need to walk through their doors each week just to handle the needs of one cancer patient. Over the next two months, this drive will hopefully generate 1,432 units worth of blood. Some 9,000 units are needed per year in this area and the clinic is currently behind. While people may associate blood donation with traumatic accidents, the majority of blood products is actually used

to support people with long-term serious illness. In 2009, for example, close to a third of the blood issued to Kelowna General hospital went to cancer patients. “Blood products play a necessary role in supportive care of cancer

treatment for some of our patients,” said Dr. Pamela Leco, radiation oncologist, B.C. Cancer Agency. “I see the lifesaving benefits of blood donation in my everyday practice and hope that Kelowna residents are motivated to donate blood this summer in support of cancer patients in need.” To donate call 1-888236-6283 to book an appointment. Donations are being accepted in Cody Subotin’s honour in a blood drive organized specifically for him to show his family how many people care. To do so, simply say the donation is to be made in his honour. jsmith@kelownacapnews.com

Three vehicle crash on Drought Hill

A Burnaby man was fined after a moment’s inattention led to a three vehicle crash on Drought Hill Sunday, police say. According to witnesses, a brown Honda SUV was travelling north on Highway 97 around 12:40 p.m. when it drifted into the oncoming southbound lane, said Const. Steve Holmes. “The SUV struck the side of a southbound red Ford pickup, causing the pickup to flip more than once,” said Holmes. “The SUV then struck a southbound grey Ford coupe that was traveling behind the pickup.” All three vehicles suffered major damage and had to be towed from the scene, and some of the vehicles’ occupants suffered minor injuries. The driver of the SUV, a 35-year-old man from Burnaby, was charged under the Motor Vehicle Act with driving without due care and attention, resulting in a $368 fine.

Arson attempt tried twice Cheryl Wierda STAFF REPORTER

If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again is an old adage a pair of Kelowna men probably shouldn’t have followed on Monday night. Police arrested two males, ages 41 and 16, for arson after they allegedly attempted, for the second time in under two hours, to set a Stockwell Drive property ablaze. Police were first called to a home in the 1000-block of Stockwell Drive around 8 p.m. on Monday after a Molotov cocktail—a bottle filled with gas—was thrown at the home from a vehicle and started an outbuilding on fire.

“It was thrown, it hit the side of the residence, it burnt some of the siding,” said Const. Steve Holmes. “It then fell and ignited a temporary carport, one of those temporary canvastype structures.” The fire was quickly extinguished by the fire department. In the ensuing police investigation, officers obtained a description of the vehicle the incendiary device was thrown out of and then decided to post an unmarked police vehicle in the area in case the vehicle returned. “About 90 minutes later, a vehicle, matching the suspect vehicle description, pulled up in front of the residence,” said Holmes. “A man got

out of the vehicle (and) threw a second incendiary device over the fence.” Police stopped the vehicle and arrested the two occupants for arson. The second Molotov cocktail apparently didn’t cause any damage of note and the occupants of the home were not there during the arson attempts. Police say there is an allegation about some kind of dispute between the occupant of the home and one of the suspects. Officers are investigating what the dispute was about, said Holmes. The suspects have been released from custody and are expected to appear in court on Aug. 30 and 31 on recommended charges of arson.

Pre-game preparation evident as Okanagan Sun whip Surrey Rams 30-3 The Okanagan Sun were firing on all cylinders last Saturday at the Apple Bowl in winning the team’s home opener 30-3 over the Surrey Rams. Sun head coach Pete McCall said the coaching staff were pleased with the Sun’s effort after a lacklustre performance against Kamloops Broncos the previous week. “I think the preparation (for the Surrey game) in itself was a big factor in our improvement overall from the previous week,” said McCall. “We had two game films of the Rams to study and prepare for, and they didn’t really show us any big surprises,” he said. “Against Kamloops, we had no film to study in advance so we didn’t have a good idea of what we were getting into, our defensive coordinator (Jason Casey) was away and we missed his leadership and intensity on the sidelines, and it was our first game of the season and we still have some guys playing for starting positions.” Against Surrey, the Sun defense set the tempo for the game as defensive back Jesse Warawa intercepted the first throw from Surrey QB Marcus Fis-

cher and scampered into the end zone for a touchdown. “That was a great play on Jesse and it was a result of studying Surrey on

film and seeing how the play was unfolding,” McCall said. Warawa would intercept a second pass in the game, while the defense

overall held Surrey to a field goal although the Rams did accumulate 285 yards in offense. On the offensive side of the ball, McCall was

happy with how Sun QB Bobby Davis, in his second start of the season, moved the ball up and down the field, the offense overall racking up 379

yards. The Sun were up 23-0 at the half. “I think we saw him play a little Bobby Davis style football out there on Saturday. There were times he had to run for it and times he stood in the pocket to make the pass, sometimes getting rocked in the process,” McCall said. Tore Tarcon also made his presence felt scoring two touchdowns, one a 109-yard dash. With BCFC rival Vancouver Island Raiders coming to town this week-

end, McCall said he didn’t have a sense his players were looking past Surrey. “I think we were pretty focused on this game, but I can tell you on Sunday everyone was already looking ahead to these next two games,” McCall said. The Raiders, the defending BCFC and national champions, will visit the Apple Bowl on Saturday, Aug. 7, and then host the Sun back on their home field in Nanaimo on Aug. 14 in a back-to-back affair.

Kelowna Jays bats silenced by Nanaimo’s pitching The Kelowna Jays capped off their season with a third place finish in the team’s 2010 season in the Pacific International League senior men’s baseball championship. At the playoff tournament hosted by Trail last weekend, Kelowna fell 9-1 to Nanaimo Coal Miners in the team’s third game of the tournament. A win against the Vancou-

this year’s championship tournament, a step up on last year when Kelowna sported a 2-2 record and finished fourth. The Jays were weaker than normal on the mound, as two of their better pitchers, Kyle Hart and Nick Peruzzo, were’nt available to play. Hart wasn’t eligible to play in the tournament because he is a U.S citizen,

while Peruzzo attended a family wedding. Efforts by the Jays to pick up players from the Kamloops Sun Devils were also unsuccessful prior to the tournament getting underway. Kelowna started the tournament on a positive note as the Jays overwhelmed Grand Forks 10-1, and then lefthander Darren Kolk struck out

10 to pace the Jays to a 4-1 win over the host Trail team. Cory Smith hit a tworun RBI double in the top of the 7th to put the Jays up 4-1 against Trail , preceded by teammate Sebastian Wong’s two-RBI double. Trail’s Ashton Florko got to Kolk with a solo homer for his team’s lone run of the game. Kelowna then over-

came a seven-run deficit in outlasting Coquitlam A’s 10-9 in a slugfest capped off in dramatic fashion with a walk-off homer by Smith, the Jays second baseman. Kelowna was fighting from behind throughout the game, trailing 9-4 in the bottom of the 7th inning. With two out, the Jays bats came alive with eight straight hits includ-

ing a three-run homer by Cody Valgardson, and doubles by Jared Johnson, Andrew Madsen, Colin Franz and Smith, with singles contributed by Wong and Kolk, tying the score at 9-9, to set up Smith’s game ending heroics. Cory Wood pitched the first five innings, and Keenan Takatch took to the mound for the final two innings.

W PHYSIOTHERAPY

Sliding kneecap can cause pain when bent

I

f you are having difficulty with your knees, especially going down stairs, squatting, or after sitting for long periods, you may have patellar tracking dysfunction. Patellar tracking dysfunction, in simple terms, refers to an abnormal movement of the kneecap during activity. As we straighten and bend our knee, the kneecap glides up and down in a “groove.” Ideally, the kneecap is centered in the groove as it glides up and down, without straying to either side. With patellar tracking dysfunction, the kneecap tracks to the outside of the groove, (similar to a bobsled banking off the sides during a corner) this creates extra contact on the underside of the kneecap resulting in pain and irritation. Continued irritation will eventually lead to softening of the cartilage on the underside of the kneecap. Mal (or improper) tracking of the kneecap can be caused by structural abnormality or by muscle imbalances around the knee. Both can alter the position of the kneecap and it’s tracking in the groove. Structural abnormalities include mal alignment through the upper and lower leg, smaller high resting kneecap,

KEEPING YOU MOVING

Robina Palmer and increased foot pronation (rolling inwards of the foot). Although these structural changes usually cannot be corrected, a specific knee brace, orthotics and proper footwear are often helpful to minimize the irritation on the underside of the kneecap. Muscle imbalance can result from structural differences in the knee and lower leg but they can often arise after injury, immobilization, prolonged activity or inactivity and repetitive compressive stresses to the knee (stairs, squatting). Having tight muscles on the outside of the upper leg and knee (primarily the IT band) can result in the kneecap being pulled to that side of the groove as it is tracking. One of the most important factors necessary to assure normal function of the kneecap is to have good strength in a muscle that is in the inner side of your knee. It is called the vastus medialis obliquus or VMO. The VMO is responsible for controlling the tracking of the kneecap in

its groove as it glides up and down with bending and straightening. Often the VMO will “shut down” after injury, or periods of immobilization or inactivity. Despite the VMO not functioning properly, you will still be able to perform all activities, and sports; you will just be more prone for eventual irritation from the improper tracking of the kneecap. Management of these muscle imbalances involves reducing the irritating activity or the activities that involve high compressive loads to the knee (stairs, prolonged sitting and squatting). Strengthening the VMO to allow it to control the kneecap optimally and stretching the muscles around the knee so they won’t pull improperly on the kneecap will also help. During strengthening, I often place a muscle stimulator over the VMO muscle (to get a full contraction) and have the individual perform functional strengthening exercises that isolate VMO activity. Taping techniques can also be used to redirect the kneecap to allow it to track properly in its groove.

Bell, who arrived in Kelowna last weekend, was a finalist for conference rookie of the year in 2008 while playing for the Victoria Rebels, an honour that went to Sun receiver Danny Turek. Bell had 15 tackles, three batted balls and four interceptions in his lone BCFC season. Bell, who spent last season with the University of Alberta Golden Bears, was named the Rebels top defensive back in his rookie campaign. The 6-foot-1, 180 pound Bell on why he chose the Okanagan Sun for his return to the BCFC and playing at the Apple Bowl: “I love the city and

the team opened its doors to me. Everything I know about the Sun this year is that it can be a championship team. I want to play for a good team that has that chance. I’m looking forward to the change of scenery in Kelowna. The 13th man (Apple Bowl fans), I knew about

that when I was in Victoria. It’s really exciting to be on that side of the ball. “The atmosphere that Sun fans) bring is something that I always wanted to play in front of.” Bell should be in uniform this weekend as the Sun host the two time defending national champi-

The roster was finalized after the Challenge Cup tournament in Toronto. The athletes will train at the Team Canada Training Center in Gatineau from July 26 through Aug. 14. The purpose of the Junior National Team Program is to identify, select and train a group of young athletes who have future Senior National Team potential and offer them the opportunity to train and

represent Canada in international competition at an earlier age. The intent of the program is to train for and compete in the 2010 Norceca Junior and in the 2011 World Championship. “Being chosen to play on the junior national team came as a bit of a shock,” said Howe, a middle blocker. “I don’t feel like I deserve to represent Canada yet, but I hope to before the end of the program. “I’m also very excited to be here and learn from the best. “It’s a true honour to be a part of this team, and I’m humbled by the player that coaches believe I can become.” “Chris had a very good NTTC

We look for Chris to do the same as we prepare for the Junior NORCECA tournament and try to qualify for the Junior World Championships in 2011,” said junior national team head coach Greg Barthel. “The coaches have selected some great competitors for the junior national team.” Howe said this represents “a a once in a lifetime opportunity,” and he wants to make the most of it. “I think this is the perfect opportunity to refine my skills and it’s opened my eyes up to the next level of volleyball, and I’m so excited to see where the next step will take me.”

On the first day, he will tackle the 100 metres, long jump, shot put and 400m. On the second day, Turner faces the 110m hurdles, the high jump, the javelin and finishes off with the 1,000m. “I’ve always kind of been like a multi-event athlete,” noted Turner. Originally focusing on discus, long jump and sprints, the Kelowna Secondary student slowly moved into multi-event competition. “I could run, jump and throw.” Turner said his training runs the gamut from event to event in wide variety. “I focus more on power and speed, most events take that.” He began his track and field career four

years ago, during Grade 8. Turner raked in 5,388 points to qualify over the 4,800-point standard. He noted B.C.’s qualifying standards are the highest in Canada. Fellow Track and Field Club member Erin Kokayko will enter the heptathlon, facing the 100m hurdles, high jump, shotput, 200m, long jump, javelin and 800m. She noted she has always focused on sprints and jumps. Training with the club affords her many different coaches who specialize in each event. Most challenging for Kokayko is the javelin, as she has not competed in the event as much. “The 800 metres is a really good challenge,” she added. Kokayko pointed out that success in the long sprint demands pacing yourself and then giving it all out at the end. The former Kelowna Christian track team member has been in competition for more than six years. “My parents are coaches, so I kind of grew up around the track.” Both Turner and Kokayko will travel to Ottawa Aug. 4 to 10 for this year’s Legion championship.

Severance packages questioned

D

uring this economic time when most companies are looking for ways to cut back needless spending and cost overruns, it seems strange that buyouts and severance packages are still being handed out like free tickets to Circus Gatti. Whether it’s a large corporation removing a CEO, or the public sector “solving a problem,” money seems to make it all better. Yet another example of late

involves Mark Lee, the former secretary-treasurer for Abbotsford School District 34, who put in 10 months of work before his job abruptly ended on June 8. And in recognition of his “long” service to that school district, he was awarded $105,000. For what? It can’t be for a job well done, otherwise they wouldn’t be parting ways. And while it isn’t known why the two sides decided to separate, one thing is for cer-

MAIN SWITCHBOARD 250-763-3212

tain: Abbotsford’s taxpayers are on the hook for the farewell present. So why are some severance packages so unreasonably high? Is it a way of avoiding a wrongful dismissal charge? Or is it simply an insurance policy to ensure a former employee doesn’t go blabbing unsavory details to the public? Many severance packages are pre-negotiated, similar to a prenuptial agreement. But for managers of larger corporations, the deal is often

worked out after the fact. That can lead to a nasty shock for stockholders or taxpayers when they see the huge golden parachute. Negotiating a price after the fact can be difficult and normally one of the parties involved—usually the company—leaves the table feeling defeated. By offering such large settlements, severance packages look less like a financial compromise and more like hush money.

Harper: No choice but to follow U.S. lead on climate policy

A

s B.C. basked in hot weather last week, headlines proclaimed that the province is bravely forging ahead with its pioneering effort to combat global warming. B.C. is among five provinces and U.S. states that have decided to proceed with “cap and trade” restrictions on greenhouse gas starting in 2012, officials of the Western Climate Initiative announced last week. This means big industrial emitters of carbon dioxide, which have escaped the carbon tax on their process emissions for the past three years, should soon have to pay for emission permits. The top five human sources of

carbon dioxide in B.C. are Spectra Energy’s two natural gas plants in the Peace country, followed by Rio Tinto-Alcan’s aluminum smelter at Kitimat, and cement plants operated by Lehigh in Delta and Lafarge in Richmond. Those and other industrial sources pay B.C.’s carbon tax on gasoline and other fuels, just like the rest of us, but together their process emissions amount to about a third of B.C.’s total greenhouse gases. And for now at least they are free. Now B.C., Ontario, Quebec, Cal-

ifornia and New Mexico have decided they will press on and impose a cap and trade system on their industries. This is despite the fact that national capTom and-trade legislation Fletcher in the U.S. has been abandoned by Senate Democrats who have enough problems going into mid-term elections this fall. Prime Minister Stephen Harper, never a big fan of the theory that humans are causing and can control global warming, has indicated that Canada has no choice but to follow

VICTORIA VIEWS

the U.S. lead on climate policy. He’s right, and it’s refreshing to hear a politician blurt out such an inconvenient truth. So now it seems clear that the U.S. federal government is leading us nowhere. Still, B.C. and California say they are going to soldier on with their tagalong partners. I put this idea to B.C. Energy Minister Bill Bennett, who also allows that he is skeptical about human-caused climate change. How can a gas plant or cement plant in B.C. take on the burden of an emission cap and paying for greenhouse gas credits when the same plant in Alberta doesn’t have to?

“I can only tell you what the minister of energy thinks, and I think that if going to cap-and-trade under those circumstances was going to create some obvious uncompetitiveness between Alberta and B.C. or between B.C. and Ontario or whoever, I don’t think we should do it,” Bennett said.

LETTERS W FEDERAL POLITICS

Stephen Harper’s way or the highway To the editor: Winston Churchill said: “A fanatic is one who can’t change his mind and won’t change the subject.” Doesn’t this observation summarize the behaviour and response of Prime Minister Stephen Harper whenever he faces a challenge, e.g., the latest political fiasco over the

census? Have you noticed how all Stephen’s minions answer reporters’ questions by inserting, over and over, a previously scripted Conservative message? Have they been told, “Most voters are simple folks with short memories, therefore, stay on message or find yourself

another job”? There is little hope of negotiating a compromise with a fanatic. Likewise there seems little hope of negotiating compromises with Harper after the Conservatives decide, behindclosed-doors, what is best for Canadians. Harper must be afraid that negotiations, com-

promises and consensus building will be seen as signs of personal weakness. Perhaps he actually believes tyranny, proclamations and pigheadedness are signs of strength. Even though I support many conservative policies in principle, I can not abide the elitist, inflexible and controlling actions of

Harper’s minority government. After all, it was elected by less than 40 per cent of the voters and is expected to serve all Canadians. How would Harper behave if he ever obtained a majority? Lloyd Atkins, Vernon

W INTERNATIONAL

G20 security police still getting applause To the editor: As I sat and watched the despicable display of anarchy which unfolded during the G-20 meetings, on the streets of Toronto by groups of lemmings—whose brains are not yet developed enough to make mature decisions, other than to follow the mob—I marveled at the manner in which the members of the police forces (from all parts of Canada) conducted themselves in an unbelievable display of restraint under very trying and explosive circumstances. These raging idiots in the mob appeared to have nothing better to do than join a mob whose sole purpose seemed to be to hinder the work of professionals who were there to protect our world leaders. And I suppose having their pictures taken while contributing to the mayhem will probably be the most they will ever achieve in life. So good for them, they have had their 30 seconds of fame! Something to brag about to the grandchildren, I suppose, if they ever reproduce someday.

Taunting officers of the law, spitting at them, throwing paint or urine on them, hurling rocks, bricks, insults and profanity, knowing the officers are trained to not retaliate, and would not be distracted from their mission, must have made these low-lifers feel 10 feet tall. But most Canadians saw them for what they were—mindless cowards, who are only brave enough to attack when they know their opponent is “defenseless.” I could not help but be amused at the irony of a spokesperson from the Coalition against Poverty criticizing the spending of billions of dollars on security and erecting fences “unnecessarily,” when it proved necessary to keep the likes of her and the parading protesters from taking the law into their own hands. If it wasn’t for the need for so much money being spent on security to protect the leaders from the protesters, maybe those funds could have been spent to address issues of poverty. So lady, you and your protester are part of the

problem, not part of the solution. I wondered if those who applauded when the police cars were torched realized that the replacements would come out of their tax dollars, but then realized the majority of those in the crowd may not be taxpayers anyway, but are probably feeding off the public trough, waiting to go to the next protest du jour, whatever it may be. I just hope that those who physically or verbally assaulted the police officers will not be abusive the next time they are being assaulted themselves and need police protection or when an officer is risking his/her life while assisting paramedics when their mangled body is being pulled from a car wreck about to explode on the side of a highway. Maybe, just maybe, they will be thankful we have such dedicated men and women who risk their lives every day to protect us in one way or another, in jobs which many of us would not have the skills, or the pure guts to carry out.

After witnessing this debacle in Toronto, I know I have an even greater appreciation for the police officers in our own community and across the country, including the members of the RCMP and others who proudly wear the badge to serve and protect. I am sorry police colleagues, especially those of you who served in Toronto, had to endure what they did at the hands of a mindless mob. Thank you for what you did, and for what you do each day. And to national news networks which tried in every way possible to criticize the amazing job being done by the police as they pressed the issue about teargas, and rubber bullets being found on the ground, and a CTV News person being punched in the face, and tried to claim police brutality at every opportunity, hang your heads in shame. I place you at the same level (or lower) than the mindless protesters trying to incite and inflame an already tense situation. At a time when our po-

lice officers needed somebody on their side, publicly, and you should have been commending them, you attacked them just as the mob did. What deplorable behaviour and yellow journalism in its lowest form. Shame on you. Dean Cousens, Brandon P.S. A note to the protesters. I don’t suppose you have ever thought of trying a protest in North Korea, where the police are not quite as disciplined and have real bullets? P.P.S. As I watched the horrific scene unfold, and saw what the police had to contend with, I thought of a sailing friend, who is with the RCMP, and I wondered if he was there. I kept hoping, that if he was, he was not caught up in the rioting, and would not be injured. I spoke with him later, and learned that he was there, but behind the fence, close to the world leaders, and not close to the idiots trying to harm them. I felt it was a sad situation that the national media could not find one good thing to say about the police force. D.C.

He agrees with B.C. participating in the Western Climate Initiative, because, if and when a price is imposed on industrial carbon emissions, the province would be prepared and ready to benefit as a clean energy leader. Premier Gordon Campbell’s goal of a onethird cut in B.C.’s greenhouse gas emissions by 2020 was ambitious when it was announced three years ago. It looks downright dubious now that

Fourth is finding the right fit, meaning it is the manager’s responsibility to steer employees toward roles where they have the greatest chance of success.

The concept is that when people know what is expected and they are given regular opportunities to use their talents combined with constant feedback, they will produce quality work time and again. In doing so, “talent turns into performance.” Buckingham and Coffman also focus on the importance of retaining talent and how much that hinges on the individual’s

2928 for ticket info. ••• TaylorMade Golf Tip of the Week, by Jon Kadin: “A pre-shot routine is a must. This is what to do. Planning the shot ahead, approach from behind the ball. Pick an intermediate target. Aiming at something a few feet away is easier and more accurate than aiming 200 yards away. Approach the ball and take a stance about a foot back from where you will make your next shot. “Take a practise swing. Focus your attention on your upcoming shot. Take your final stance and start your backswing with your personal swing key (thoughts). This is a typical pre-shot routine. Yours may differ, but it is important to develop a routine for every shot. “The purpose of preshot routine is to be consistent. Make sure you have picked your intermediate target, decide on your landing area, visualize the ball’s flight and fully concentrate on your shot. “The pre-routine should also turn on your own concentration. Up until that point you can be laughing and joking, but

when you start your routine you should shift into your concentration mode. If something disrupts it, stop, back off and start again. “The routine concludes with you activating your swing keys used to begin your swing. For example, if the key you use to start the backswing is low and slow this will be the final component of your routine. The more you practise this on the range (it is difficult to learn on the course) the more it will become part of your routine. (Jon Kadin is the director of golf at Gallagher’s and Greg Murtland is the territory manager of TaylorMade). Birthdays of the week: Happy 50th Mohini Singh, B.C. Ministry of Agriculture (Aug. 6); Happy 65th Iris Bodnar (July 25); Happy 84th Armand Charles (July 29); Raymond Keen, Sherwood Hospitality (Aug. 1); Mike Christian (Aug. 4); James Moller (Aug. 6); It is also my birthday on Aug. 6 (no age available).

Civil shoreline construction work will commence the week of June 28, 2010 and is expected to be completed by July 19, 2010. Minor traffic delays may be experienced at the cable termination points at Okanagan Centre Road West and 4th Street in Lake Country and along Westside Road. Onshore and offshore work using barges and specialized cable laying equipment will be taking place between July 19 and August 6, 2010. To complete this work safely, it will be necessary to temporarily close the secondary outer gravel boat launch at Okanagan Centre Safe Harbour for extended periods between July 19 and August 6, 2010. The inner main Safe Harbour concrete boat launch will remain open. Please be advised that during this construction period the Safe Harbour area will be congested and parking may be limited. The work will take place within the approved Department of Fisheries and Oceans and Ministry of Environment work window for the construction activities on or adjacent to Okanagan Lake. BC Hydro recognizes that these construction activities may be an inconvenience and we will complete the work as quickly as possible.

So many great things to do, see and taste downtown Jan Johnson CONTRIBUTOR

t’s hard to believe that the “dog days” of summer are already upon us—where did July go? Luckily, we still have four long, lazy weeks left to enjoy the beautiful Okanagan summer. But don’t get too relaxed just yet—Mardi Gras, the DKA’s “greatest street sale under the sun” is coming up this weekend. Yup, that’s right, folks—get out the baby strollers, pack the sunscreen and head out this Saturday, Aug. 7, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Bernard Avenue will be closed to traffic, and close to 10,000 visitors will be out enjoying the entertainment, activities (lots of fun things for kids), food and vendors with fabulous deals. There are three stages with live bands, and just about as much fun as you can handle. This is the 22nd annual Mardi Gras, and has become a fun yearly ritual for locals and visitors alike. Don’t miss it! Fabio di Nanno, owner of Walls of Fame

in the Towne Centre Mall, tells me that he’s opened a second store at 531 Bernard Ave., with great windows on the street. The new spot has a nice open feel, with richly coloured walls—the perfect backdrop for displaying the incredible collection of sports, music and movie memorabilia that’s available. Fabio tells me that the new spot will be open seven days a week for the rest of the summer. You’ll want to stop by and check out this new addition to Bernard Avenue. It’s also the perfect place to find a gift for that person who has everything. I’ve been going for my daily “fix” lately at Annegret’s Chocolates in the Towne Centre Mall. It’s summer, so Annegret is once again making her amazing, one-of-a-kind gelato. It’s soooo good that I have to have one every day. With intriguing flavours like Tiramisu, Mozart (chocolate and pistachio) and Mango, I could have a new flavour every day for a few weeks; but I must con-

fess, I’m in a bit of a rut with my favourite flavour, Apriti Sesame, made with sesame seeds and deliciously crunchy and chocolatey. Great news for all you food lovers out there: Tripke Bakery’s Cafe, behind the bakery at 567 Bernard is open again. After being closed for about a year, it’s now freshly renovated and has a new menu. They’re offering healthy food in-

corporating organic, natural and locally grown ingredients whenever available, as well as a selection of specialty coffees, teas and desserts. Open from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., they are now also serving an all-day breakfast that includes such delicacies as Apple pancakes, ricotta crepes and a breakfast panini with scrambled eggs. It’s wonderful to have you back, Tripke’s Cafe.

If you’re a fan of pizza, you’re going to love the new DunnEnzies at 1559 Ellis St. Owners Deb and Karen have created a fun menu with specialty pizza names like Skinny Vinny, Diego’s Inferno and Gotti-Have-It. But the best thing is, the pizza is delicious. I was thrilled to see that they even offer gluten free and vegan options, so celiacs and vegans can also chow down on great pizza. The

AN AFRICAN MASK (left) which was donated to the museum must have caught some traveller’s attention as it traversed the globe, eventually finding a home inside the Kelowna Museum’s doors. Museum staff tried to think of why people picked this and other items and how they brought them home to the Okanagan as they assembled their latest show.

JENNIFER SMITH/CAPITAL NEWS

W KELOWNA MUSEUM

Things that come home from distant vacations Jennifer Smith STAFF REPORTER

Deep in the bowels of the Kelowna Museum, on shelves never to see the light of day, a collection of treasures builds. For years the museum has been accumulating a mass of items one wouldn’t regularly find in a museum display—until now. Late last month the museum’s creative team pulled a few of these souvenirs together and launched Wish You Were Here, a display focused on the physical reminders we bring home from vacation. Museum marketing coordinator Risti Lespérance explained, the name and the theme are all about capturing that moment in time and trying to share it with others. “It’s the sentiment you send home,” said Lespérance. “‘Beaches are great, wish you were here.’ It’s those things you write on a post card.” While post cards of Ogopogo may be hallmarks of Okanagan vacations, the display centres mostly on artifacts brought home by Okanagan residents from other areas of the world.

As such, it’s divided into typical country groupings, with a few small glass chests of extra items, like a natural history collection. Anyone who has ever scooped a vial of sand can probably relate to the natural history where likely the biggest pine cone one will ever see is tucked in the corner beside a few of those vials and a hunk of coral. “People are never supposed to take coral off the beaches, but when they confiscate it at Customs, they don’t want to throw it away,” said Lespérance. The museum has thus accumulated quite a pile of illegal coral and other natural artifacts snagged from wayward tourists by the policing agency. Canada Customs forwards the items, just as a few locals have forwarded their unique treasures. A year 2000 Barbie, for example, made it into the curatorial staff’s hands after being donated as important memorabilia. It is sitting in the doll display case where museum staff have laid a handful of the many dolls they’ve collected over the years. “We like the dolls because there are so many

RISTI LESPÉRANCE with a souvenir.

from all over the world,” said Lespérance, pointing out a beautifully carved set of Matryoshka

dolls (otherwise known as babushka or nesting dolls, photo above right). The set stacks up against an African-looking collection of beaded children’s toys and sits in front of a figurine draped in a silk kimono. Across the room a full-sized sari has been wrapped by a visitor from India, who happened to come by the museum and offered to help. The piece is tucked nicely behind the main attraction of the show. The giant Ogopogo, which retired from Kelowna’s parade float this year, has been given one last tour of duty. Sitting in the museum in all its kitschy, green-branded glory, the giant monster adds a touch of cheesy Okanagan class to the whacky treasure trove, making this funky fun collection of holiday “crafts” a museum memory that will last. The Okanagan Heritage Museum is located at 470 Queensway Ave., at the corner of Ellis and Queensway, open Monday to Friday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. For more information call 250-763-2417 or visit www.KelownaMuseums.ca.

Great Big Sea sound appeals beyond Nfld borders GREAT BIG SEA: SAFE UPON THE SHORE (WEA)

I was well aware that Newfoundland’s Great Big Sea are very popular, especially in their home and native land, but it was still a bit of a surprise to see their new album, number 10, debut at the No. 2 spot on the national charts (just behind Eminem). And GBS deserve their big fan base (not sure if Eminem does?) given this ambitious and accomplished new album. There are 14 tracks here with too many highlights to mention. But the title track is a superb, unaccompanied vocal ballad while the lads offer up some cool covers such as the Kinks Have A Cuppa Tea and the traditional Gallows Pole, popularized by Led Zeppelin. The GBS original Over The Hills is a solid esprit de corps song for our military overseas while there is also plenty of rollicking Celtic rockers such as the standouts Wandering Ways and Road To Ruin. GBS even teams up with A list Hollywood actor Russell Crowe on the humorous shot gun wedding song Hit The Ground And Run. One of Great Big Sea’s finest. B+

ATLANTIC STANDARDS: KITCHEN PARTY (RHINO)

This excellent 14-tracks CD sampler was co-released with the new Great Big Sea top seller to draw more attention to the popularity of eastern Celtic Maritme music. Most of us are familiar with some of the terrific acts on Kitchen Party as The Rankins, The Barra MacNeils, GBS, Natalie MacMaster, Rawlins Cross have all played concerts in Kelowna. But there are some fabulous new and lesser known artists featured here with the terrific fiddle and band instrumental from Samantha Robichaud, the tight interplay of Vishten, and the rugged Celtic zydeco of The Navigators—my pick of the litter on this CD. The cool a cappella cover of Stan Rogers’ Barrett’s Privateers by The Irish Descendants helps illustrate why Canada’s east coast kitchen partiers are such a boon to the world music scene. B+

SOUNDING OFF

Bruce Mitchell THE CHEMICAL BROTHERS: FURTHER (PARLOPHONE/ EMI) The Chemical Brothers remain the U.K. duo of Tom Rowlands and

Ed Simons and Further marks a few major changes in their prospects. First of all, The Chemical Brothers first three albums all hit the top 10 of the Canadian album charts but Further has not fared nearly as well. Also this is the first album that doesn’t feature all-star singers (in the past Oasis Noel Gallagher, Klaxons, Q-Tip, Tim Burgess, Midlake, others) and it is the first time they haven’t used obvious samples.

The Chemical Brothers brand of electronica always headed more for arena rock expanses where their pyrotechnics and big productions excited huge crowds, as opposed to the club music that dominates the pop charts right now. The elctro funk Swoon has become a minor dance hit while the opus track on Further is the 11+ minute Es-

cape Velocity that has beg beats and pulsating synths that would get any rave going. I am not sure if The Chemical Brothers were part of the acts that were to play the massive German electronica festival over the weekend where 19 people died in a crushing crowd but theirs is the sort of electronica that appeals to big audiences. Too bad over a million people tried to cram into a space set aside for only 300,000 and the terrible tragedy. C+

Robert Randolph is a more recent discovery having played steel guitar in his church’s band in New Jersey for several years before breaking out to non secular music.

tar (“sacred guitar”) solo and a solid re-working of Blind Willie Johnson’s If I Had My Way with a guest spot from Ben Harper. For hit potential one might look at Randolph’s cool pop rock makeover of Prince’s Walk Don’t Walk. There are 17 tracks on this lengthy CD but a half

As a child he was only allowed to listen to Christian music.

There is a swampy take of John Lennon’s I Don’t Wanna Be A Soldier Mama where Randolph trades off licks with Doyle Bramhall III and Burnett. He also offers a visceral gospel rock version of Bob Dylan’s Shot Of Love with its most blues wailing steel gui-

Editors and contributors all post daily updates about things that make Kelowna awesome. There are updates about cool stores, places to eat, events that are happening and even just random snapshots found around the town. There is also a Podcast section where K.I.A. editor Brandon Fletcher has put together some great summer mixes. My favourite part about the website is the section called The Proof. Aptly named, it’s a visual day-to-day glimpse at some of Kelowna’s creative best. The Proof has already featured the likes of dating coach Tim Janzen, Cream cutie Mel Schmidt and hat extraordinaire Nasim Jamal. But surely Kelowna isn’t the only city that is awesome, right? Right. That’s where CanadaIsAwesome.com comes in. Started up by Bob Kronbauer out of Vancouver, Canada Is Awesome aims to develop Awesome websites in as many Canadian cities as possible. It all started with Vancouver in 2008, grew to Calgary in 2009 and now it has come to Kelowna for 2010. As you can see on the Vancouver website, there are many more different sections and contributors than the Kelowna site. As time goes on though, K.I.A. will just keep growing and growing and it will be the main information site that people go to to find out what’s going on around town or just to hear some good news. If you want everyone to know how awesome Kelowna is and you are interested in becoming a K.I.A. contributor email editor Brandon Fletcher at brandonwfletcher@ gmail.com.

Don’t squeeze big plants into small beds

R

ight plant right place. Repeat after me, right plant right place, right plant right place, right plant right place… It seems I just can’t say it enough—everywhere I see plants that will outgrow the space where they’re planted. When a shrub grows to a height of eight feet and a width of four to five feet, it has no place in a skinny little bed measuring two feet across between a walkway and a building. As much as plants like Diablo ninebark and black lace elderberry are about as cool as it gets, they can’t grow in a confined, small space. In fact, there are very few woody shrubs that will fit into a small space. These spots should be reserved for herbaceous

FROM THE GROUND UP

Don Burnett border plants commonly known as perennials. In shady areas the favourite choices are Hosta (dozens of varieties) Cimicifuga, Ligularia (both dentata and stenocephala ‘The Rocket’) ferns (several varieties) and many varieties of Heuchera. For sunny spots, you can choose from an even broader list including Rudbeckia, Gaillardia, perennial Geranium, Leucanthemum, Lavandula, Phlox paniculata, Sedum spectabile and literally hundreds of others.

Look up some of these online to get an idea if these will work for you. If you absolutely have to have a shrub, then choose one that is truly dwarf. Miniature roses are a great choice as well as dwarf Weigela such as ‘Midnight Wine,’ ‘Minuet’ and ‘Days of Wine and Roses.’ Also there are some barberry varieties that stay quite small such as ‘Gold Nugget’ and Royal Burgundy. There are very few conifers that will fit into a two-foot planting bed, however, I have a couple of personal favourites. One is Abies balsamea Nanum (dwarf balsam fir) and another is Picea abies Echiniformis. Look these up online as well to get a good idea of what they might look like in your garden.

Just please stay away from planting mugo pines and large growing spreading junipers in these tight quarters. In a few short years you will end up butchering them every spring to keep them small and the look awful. ••• Last week, I mentioned the genealogical society and that I was to have Bob Hayes and Claire Smith-Burns on the radio with me. Well we had a great time and it was a pleasure to talk about the society, what it is about and the upcoming event this fall. This event only happens once in two years and for anyone interested in family history it is a must do. The Harvest Your Family Tree Genealogical seminar marketplace will

be held on Sept. 25 in the Centre for Learning Okanagan College Campus 1000 KLO Rd. You must pre-register for this and I advise that you don’t put it off because the seminars book up very quickly. Go on line to www. kdgs.ca or call Marie Ablett or Wendy Turnbull for more info. You can also pick up a brochure at the library or call me and I will make sure you get one. This event is geared to anyone interested in researching family history with plenty to satisfy the beginner novice as well as the advanced experienced researcher. Tune in to The Don Burnett Garden Show on the new AM 1150 News Talk Sports Saturdays from 8 to 10 a.m.

W CABANA

Restaurant sets example for hiring people with disabilities Cabana Bar and Grille in the Mission has partnered with the Kelowna District Society for Community Living. The result of that partnership is the restaurant hiring Sebastian, a 29 year-old male who suffers from austism. Sebastian has been hired to work three shifts per week at an industry standard wage as a support worker for the kitchen and dining room. The Kelowna District Society for Community Living is a non-profit organization that has been serving people with disabilities since 1953. The society believes that all individuals have the capacity and ability to participate and contribute as equal members of the community. Currently, KDSCL serves over 150 people with developmental disabilities through employment, residential, activity and business services. Part of KDSCL’s service is to offer and provide employers with a job coach to help with the initial training if needed. Cabana accepted this offer and has been crucial in making the partnership

a success. The society says the relationship between Sebastian, Cabana and KDSCL has been one of support and inclusion. Sebastian has been heard saying: “Can I have this job forever?” since being hired. Not only has it helped boost this individual’s self esteem but it has also had

a wonderful affect within the Cabana staff, says the society. If you have a local business and are looking to hire, the society welcomes the opportunity to meet with you. KDSCL can be contacted at 250-763-9499. The society’s office is located at555 Fuller Ave. in Kelowna.

In Memory of

Janet Mary

Heywood

A year ago you left us with an aching in our hearts, An inexpressible sadness, felt when a loved one departs. You’ve gone on to that blessed land where teardrops never fall, There’s no sickness, pain or sorrow you’ve been healed from it all. Though we have shed many tears and have pain in our days, We hold on to the hope we’ve been given, that your heart is full of praise. We will always miss you; our love will never wane, As we hold tightly to the promise, that we WILL see you again. Forever missed, always loved. Bill, Roy, Sharon, Julie, Stephen, your grandchildren, and all your family and friends.

LIND, EARL

October 20, 1927 - August 1, 2010 It is with sorrow that we announce the passing of Earl Edward Lind, adored husband, father, grandfather and friend on August 1, 2010 at Kelowna General Hospital. He will be forever loved and remembered by his wife of 51 years, Elenora; daughter Christine (Roger); sons Murray (Gloria), Lonny (Cheryl); grandchildren Alexandra and Gregory Lind, Amanda and Scott Kroeker; great grandchildren Rylin and Macallan Tocher, Kyra Kroeker; sister Evelin Skinner; sister-in-law Jean Lind, nieces, nephews and many friends. A celebration of Earl’s life will be held on Friday, August 6th at 10:00 am at Springfield Funeral Home, 2020 Springfield Road, Kelowna, BC. The family wishes to thank Dr. Verster, Dr. McCauley and the ICU staff at KGH for their loving and expert care. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the BC Lung Association, PO Box 34009, Postal Station D, Vancouver, BC, V6J 4M2.

LOYST, DANIEL ROSS March 8, 1967 - July 30, 2010

With great sadness at the Moog and Friends Hospice home and at the young age of 43 years we lost our little “Warrier”. He fought long and very courageously with his battle with cancer. He never once lost his wonderful sense of humor or beautiful smile which will always be remembered by all who loved him dearly. He is survived by his loving wife and devoted caregiver Jennifer, his stepdaughter Jessica who was the pride and joy of his life, loving parents Mel and Jean, his brothers Brian (Janice), James (Kristine), best friend Sonja, niece Breanna, nephews Riley and Jordan, Aunties, Uncles, Cousins and Friends. Danny not only enjoyed his life work of preparing food for others but also the pleasure of consuming good food. He became an artist at growing excellent herbs and vegetables in his garden and in his spare time he was a movie buff but always had an interesting book close at hand to read. A Memorial service for Danny will be held at First United Church, 721 Bernard Ave., Kelowna B.C. at 10:30 A.M. with Rev. Lorna Hillian officiating. In lieu of flowers the family would appreciate donations to the Canadian Cancer Society in memory of Danny. In one sense there is no death The life of a soul on earth lasts Beyond his departure. You will always feel That life touching yours, that voice speaking to you In the familiar things he touched, worked with, Loved as familiar friends. He lives on in Our lives and in the lives of all others Who knew him. - Angelo Patri Condolences can be sent to www.valleyviewfuneralhome.com Arrangements entrusted to VALLEYVIEW FUNERAL HOME, 165 Valleyview Road 765-3147.
