INSIDE KTW

As Cera Wright and Ivy Porter pulled a 10-foot piece of driftwood from Riverside Park’s swim-ming area on a Saturday afternoon, beach-goers were reminded it’s a different world swimming in the South Thompson River.

“There’s a lot more hazards here,” Wright told KTW. Driftwood aside, she noted there’s one danger that stands out: “We face the current.”

Wright and Porter, lifeguards with the Riverside Park Lifeguard Service, were at the start of their first Saturday shift in Riverside when they spoke with KTW.

The City of Kamloops’ lifeguard service monitors the beach daily from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.,

weather permitting. For both Wright and Porter, 2015 is their first

year lifeguarding at the downtown swimming area.

Working outdoors in the Kamloops summer certainly has its perks, Wright noted, but dealing with drop-offs and currents, sandbars and float-ing debris also adds to the stress that comes with monitoring the beachside swimming area.

And, those are just the hazards in the water.“Someone could be lying on the beach, tan-

ning, but be passed out,” Wright said, noting the city’s lifeguards also monitor those on the sand for heat-related illnesses like heat stroke.

Pools are controlled environments, where lifeguards can see to the bottom, the water doesn’t fight back and swimmers remain in a contained area.

Guarding in the river, on the other hand, requires lifeguards to make extra considerations should they need to jump in and save a swimmer.

“Even when we guard, we’re going to run up-stream and swim on an angle,” Porter said.

“We’re going to be dealing with the current, too, and we’re going to be tired.”

Despite the added hazards river swimming might bring, the Riverside Park Lifeguard Service is on hand to ensure swimmers remain safe as they enjoy the water in the sweltering heat of Kamloops’ summers.

So, even though it would give her more people to look after, Porter would rather see everyone enjoying the water in the roped-off area along the South Thompson.

At least there, there’s help if need be. “It’s a lot safer to swim in,” she said.

Saving lives at

TCC

On a regular day, a lifeguard at the Tournament Capital Centre’s Canada Games Pool might perform minor first-aid or help a young swimmer who has gone too far into the deep end.

This summer, they have also been first responders dur-ing a pair of rescues for swimmers in medical distress.

The latest save came on Wednesday, when an elderly man had a medical incident unrelated to swimming, said Heidi Ogilvie, the city’s aquatics programs supervisor.

“The lifeguards were quick on the draw and res-cued him and sent him off to Royal Inland Hospital,

where he’s being treated,” she said.On June 18, lifeguards at the pool rescued a woman

experiencing medical distress, again not related to swimming.

Ogilvie praised staff involved in both incidents for immediately recognizing what needed to be done.

“It was absolutely incredible,” she said. “They are such a highly professional team and I am so proud to be their supervisor.”

Medical issues at the pool are relatively rare, Ogilvie said, usually occurring a year or more apart.

Water Restrictions

Watering Properly for Plant HealthPlants in the landscape are constantly defending themselves from enemies. Pests prefer plants that are stressed and one of the most common causes is improper watering. Proper watering for your landscape will depend on soil type, weather, location, wind exposure, and type of plants.

Lawns: Water your lawn deeply and thoroughly, but infrequently. This means watering about one to two days per week to a depth of 2.5 cm (1”). An empty tuna can is approximately 2.5 cm deep. Place several cans at di�erent distances from your sprinkler and time how long it takes to �ll the can. Water this length of time once or twice per week during the summer. Reduce this time by up to half in the spring and fall.

To determine when to water for your lawn, step on your grass. If it readily bounces back, no watering is required. If it takes awhile to recover, it’s time to water, and if it lies �at, then you’ve waited too long.

Landscape beds: To determine when to waterfor your landscape beds, squeeze a handful of soil. If it forms a ball and is slick, then there is noneed to water. If it forms a crumbly ball, then it is time to irrigate, and if it is too dry to form a ball, then you’ve waited too long.

LOCAL NEWS

With less than a week before coun-cil revisits the issue, Kamloops’ North Shore Business Improvement Association (NSBIA) is raising red flags about a proposed ban on the use of cosmetic pesti-cides.

NSBIA general man-ager Steven Puhallo said members of the association’s board are concerned a ban will lead to lost jobs and closed businesses.

Council is set to address the issue on Tuesday after tabling it in late May to allow members of the com-munity to weigh in.

Coun. Tina Lange proposed the ban on behalf of the city’s urban agriculture com-mittee.

The ban would apply to ornamen-tal plants, including shrubs, flowers and lawns, on residential properties, but not veg-etable gardens or fruit trees.

Puhallo said the NSBIA does have some

lawn-care companies in its membership, but has also been talking to other businesses throughout Kamloops who are alarmed by the proposed ban.

His organization’s concerns are similar to those raised by lawn care companies that have spoken at coun-cil meetings — that, because cosmetic pes-ticides will still be avail-able on store shelves, residents who want weed-free lawns will take matters into their own hands rather than calling professionals for applications.

“It takes the ability of the regulated and trained professionals to make money that way, and that can be more

harmful than the cur-rent standard,” Puhallo said.

Under the city’s existing bylaws, resi-dents can apply pes-ticides to lawns, but must have a licensed applicator do so and must post signage alert-ing others the products have been used.

Puhallo called that a better approach.

“This is something that both myself and our board of directors had a lot of concerns about,” he said.

“As a society, we’ve come to accept that there has to be a bal-ance between environ-mental concerns and commercial priorities. The current bylaw, as it stands, we believe

allows for a balance between these two.”

Puhallo also ques-tioned how the bylaw would be enforced.

In an earlier interview, bylaw ser-vices supervisor John Ramsay told KTW that bylaw officers have mostly focused on ensuring signage is posted correctly under current bylaws — 24 hours before applica-tion and for 48 hours afterward — rather than cases where someone has sprayed the products on their own.

“For us to get involved, it tends to be after the fact when someone’s already sprayed, and for us to determine whether or not it was pesticide use is very hard,” he said.

“I do recall I’ve talk-ed to a couple people about it, but it’s not one of the big ones that we manage.”

The city doesn’t receive many com-plaints about its cur-rent ban — Ramsay said his recollection is fewer than five per year.

He wasn’t aware of any tickets given out for

violating the existing bylaw.

“Usually we talk about compliance and things like that,”

Ramsay said.This isn’t the first

time the pesticide debate has come to council.

Last term, Coun. Donovan Cavers pro-posed a similar ban, which failed on a 5-4 vote.

LOCAL NEWS

Last week, a North Kamloops neighbour-hood was locked down

by heavily armed police officers — many of whom looked like they were going to war.

They were responding to a report of a shooting at a home in Brocklehurst and involved in what appeared to be a standoff.

After more than two hours, the RCMP’s emergen-cy-response team entered the Lethbridge Avenue home and found that the shooting call was a hoax.

Swatting is the practice of reporting false emergen-cies to police in order to draw a big response — often involving tactical members, hence the name. It is usually done by way of computer-generated 911 calls or calls

from blocked or untraceable numbers.

In the past, targets have included celebrities like Iggy Azalea and Justin Bieber. More recently, gamers have taken to swatting one another and watching the chaos play out via online streaming services.

Lately, it seems, swatting has been on the rise in B.C. — Kamloops included.

“It was quite a heavy drain on our resources,” Kamloops RCMP Const. Jason Epp said of the July 2 hoax 911 call, which came from an untraceable num-ber.

“Because of the serious-ness of the call, we sent every resource available.”

Kamloops-Thompson school district Supt. Karl deBruijn said the issue also raises major concerns for educators.

Over a one-week period in April, three Kamloops schools were the targets of swatting calls.

“It’s a very big concern,”

deBruijn said.“There are serious issues

when you start having chil-dren frightened and con-cerned and staff frightened and concerned and parents frightened and concerned.

“It undermines the sense of safety and security that people have in schools, and for their children when they’re in the schools.

“There’s loss of instruc-tional time and loss of employee productivity. Then there’s the RCMP, the emergency responders. And, there’s always the potential for an accident.”

DeBruijn also made a boy-who-cried-wolf argu-ment.

“When we have a real problem, there’s the chance people could just think it’s a hoax or it’s swatting,” he said.

“Then you have a real tragedy that occurs.”

DeBruijn said he was pleased with how students and staff responded to the district’s swatting calls —

one at Summit elementary on April 15 and one each at David Thompson elementa-ry and Westsyde secondary on April 22.

“We’ve gone over our procedures and we think they’re pretty good, but we’re stymied a bit,” he said, noting other B.C. superin-tendents have shared simi-lar concerns.

“The impact for them has been very much similar to the impact for us and they’re equally challenged.”

DeBruijn said district officials are in the process of looking into expensive upgrades to its telephone system to help thwart swat-ters.

“We’re looking at spend-ing a significant amount of money to change our sys-tem so it blocks these kind of digital or blocked calls,” he said.

“I haven’t got an exact figure, but we’re prob-ably looking at $75,000 to $100,000.

“It’s really tough to

quantify the cost of these prank calls, but we think we would save money either by

preventing them [with an upgraded phone system] or catching those responsible.”

Jail sentence for B.C. swatter

PORT COQUITLAM — A British Columbia teenager was sentenced yesterday to 16 months in jail for online pranks and threats that caused mayhem in commu-nities as far away as Ontario, California and Florida.

The 17-year-old boy pleaded guilty to 23 charges, including criminal harassment, extortion and public mischief.

A provincial court judge in Port Coquitlam also sen-tenced him to eight months of supervision but, when time served is tallied, the boy could be out of jail by early next year.

The teen, who can’t be named because of his age, has also been banned from using the Internet.

The youth was charged after several so-called swat-

ting incidents, a type of cyber crime where someone alerts first responders to a fake emergency, sending a SWAT team or police to unsuspecting victims.

Court heard the targets were mainly women playing video games online but that in one case the teen’s hoax prompted a bomb squad to respond in California.

The trial of an Ottawa teenager on similar charges began earlier this year.

The 17-year-old original-ly faced 60 charges, includ-ing causing mischief and conveying false information with intent to alarm, but the Crown said it is only pursu-ing 34 counts as authori-ties in Florida are going to mount their own case.

The allegations included incidents in California, Florida, Quebec and Ontario.

As employees at the City of Kamloops’ recycling contractor continue to walk the picket line, the Eureka science program at Thompson Rivers University wants your recyclables.

Eureka uses vari-ous recyclables in its summer camps and is willing to take some off the hands of residents who, for the past two weeks, have not had material picked up.

Items Eureka could use include egg car-tons, water bottles, cardboard (cereal boxes, etc.), toilet paper/paper-towel rolls, milk cartons and yogurt containers.

Eureka has no use for glass containers and tins.

Residents can drop off materials in room S230A or S212 in the Science Building at TRU.

The City of Kamloops has a con-tract with Emterra Environmental that sees the city col-lect recyclables from homes and busi-nesses and deliver the material to Emterra’s Valleyview plant, where it is sorted and shipped elsewhere.

Emterra’s 10 union-ized employees have been on strike since June 22, with the union citing wages as the issue.

Due to the strike, the city has suspend-ed curbside collection of recyclables and has directed residents and business owners to either store the mate-rial until the labour dispute ends or take it to one of three private depots in town — Lorne Street Bottle Depot and two General Grants loca-tions.

However, General Grants has said it does not have the ability to accept large volumes of recy-clables.

Eureka! They want your recyclables

Man faces charges after allegedly beating womanA man faces numerous charges after

allegedly beating up a woman near the Tobiano boat launch on Wednesday night before fleeing from police in a vehicle.

Kamloops RCMP Cpl. John Edinger said

Mounties were called at about 8 p.m. to investigate a report of a domestic distur-bance.

Edinger said the man drove away from Tobiano eastbound on Highway 1 and fled

from police when an officer tried to stop the vehicle. The man was eventually found and arrested in the Lac Le Jeune area after Mounties employed the Air 4 RCMP heli-copter and a tracking dog.

For two bucks, you can see the future.

And, if you toss down your loo-nie, grab a sweater

because it might be bone-chill-ing cold — notwithstanding the fact the entire globe has today become a furnace that appears to no longer need any fuel, aside from mankind’s continuing con-tribution to a perpetual Earth sauna.

(Cue the climate-change deniers and their letters of objec-tion — if they can seal an enve-lope in neverending 35+ C heat).

It wasn’t long ago, perhaps a generation and a bit, that thoughts of the future (which is the here and now) included pre-dictions of another ice age.

Such predictions — and many others that have kept me up beyond the witching hour — are contained in The Book of Predictions, a tome I used to read voraciously in my youth and which I found for $2 at a recent used book sale.

At the time, perusing the predictions was fascinating and exciting as the year 2000 was a mesmerizing, Jetsons-like future in my mind.

Today, reading predictions made back in 1980 is as enter-taining, if not more so, as we are able to see how wrong the experts were.

Consider the ice-age thoughts.

In the book, there are a few dire warnings of the cold to come.

According to Dr. Jeffrey Goodman — who a generation

ago lectured on archeology, geol-ogy and, ahem, parapsychology — between 1993 and 2030, we will see “sudden ice buildups at both poles and accelerated movement toward a new ice age.”

So, despite the record tem-peratures and unprecedented drought-related water-use restrictions in the rainforest of southwest B.C., we still have 15 years to stock up on sweaters.

Author Nigel Calder also foresaw a gigantic growth in gla-ciers, asserting that by 2000, “the much-advertised heating of the earth by the manmade carbon-dioxide ‘greenhouse’ fails to occur; instead, there is renewed concern about cooling and an impending ice age.”

In fact, Calder predicted, 15 nations will be “obliterated by ice sheets” before 2080.

No. 2 on that list? Canada.On the positive side, that bit

of news may, possibly, mean an end to water meters in Kamloops, though city hall will likely find a way to charge us by the iceberg.

Former Arizona state senator Dan Halacy was also warning of an ice age back in the era of the Cold War.

“By 2030, in spite of the much-feared ‘greenhouse’ heat-ing effect predicted to raise Earth’s average temperature, everyone not living in the tropics will be painfully aware that we are moving into another ice age.”

Then again, in 1992, Halacy published a book, Cooking with the Sun: How to Build and Use Solar Cookers, that would not seem to be required reading as we run from expanding glaciers.

It’s not hard to see such pre-dictions have not — and will not — come to fruition.

No complex data is need to arrive at that conclusion.

All I needed was a photo last week showing KTW reporter Jessica Wallace’s shoes partially melted into North Kamloops pavement while covering a story and having to stand too long in the searing heat.

When lady loafers become one with the road, the sticky situation is about more than a one-off heat wave.

At this point, as we deal with record-setting temperatures and hazy skies from hundreds of forest fires and dwindling water supplies and killer ice caves col-lapsing on dormant volcanoes in the shadow of Vancouver, I pre-dict an ice age would be quite welcome among the sweat-drenched masses.

VIEWPOINT

Preparing for the ice age

THE HOT AND NOT OF THE WEEK

Kamloops This Week looks at the stories of the week — the good, the bad and all in-between:

HOT: The lifeguards at the Tournament Capital Centre’s Canada Games Pool, who twice within the past three weeks helped save patrons at the facility.

A man and a woman both suffered medical distress unrelated to swimming and the city lifeguards stepped up to help as first respond-ers.

“It was absolutely incredible,” Heidi Ogilvie, the city’s aquatics pro-grams supervisor, told KTW. “They are such a highly professional team and I am so proud to be their supervisor.”

Lifeguards doing life-saving work — kudos to our aquatic heroes.

NOT: The prices at the pump.A year ago, the price of a barrel of oil was

around $100, double where it stands today.Yet, the price per litre in Kamloops suddenly

spiked to $1.25 this week, which is where it was last year when the price of a barrel was double the cost of today.

When pump prices shot up to $1.50 per litre a few years ago, oil companies and analysts tied the rising cost to sky-high per barrel prices. When the per litre price rises while per barrel prices remain low, they find myriad other reasons, other than the obvious — gouging.

HOT: The provincial government, for establishing a $100,000 fund to promote female participation in soccer, to carry on the interest gen-erated by the recent World Cup games that set new attendance records at BC Place Stadium.

Community workshops will be held around the province this fall, with speeches by Canadian soccer personalities and free workshops to develop more coaches, officials and volunteers.

YOUR OPINIONA selection of comments on KTW stories, culled online

RE: LETTER: THE ANSWER IS TO BAN PESTICIDE USE:

“Claiming we’ll be overrun and overwhelmed by dandelions is preposterous when set against the known environmental dan-gers posed by these chemicals.

“I’ll take dandelions any day of the week over exposing pets and children to the proven risks associated with pesticides.”

RE: LETTER: WE ALL NEED TO WORK ON OUR WATER WOES:

“Actually, water usage in Kamloops is down considerably since the installation of water meters — and people watering their grass are now paying extra for it.

“We think we know so much about the weather, yet most of the all-time records for cold and hot weather were set in the 1940s.

“I’m sure we will return to what we call ‘normal weather’ in the coming years as it is cycli-cal.”

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Editor:From the Emterra

Environmental website: “As a Canadian waste-management innovator, we offer customers the benefits of belonging to a nationwide commodity selling group powerhouse that consis-tently earns higher revenues and maintains stable markets even in economic downturns.”

Does Emterra maintain its higher revenues by underpaying labourers?

Is Emterra a beneficiary of the recycling fees we have to pay?

People shouldn’t be getting on the city’s case about this strike when it looks as though Emterra can afford to pay work-ers better.

If Emterra is being subsidized by the provincial government, that is where our ire should be directed.

S. BonnerKamloops

Editor:Regarding the strike at

Emterrra Environmental:Now that the labour dispute is

nearing the end of its third week, perhaps the city should consider penalizing Emterra a daily fine until the strike is over.

They do have a contract?As a taxpayer, I am paying for

a service I am not getting. Maybe Mayor Peter Milobar and council should act and take a stand.

I would hedge a bet that if the

city did that, the strike would come to an end pretty quickly.

Emterra is collecting taxpay-ers’ money and not paying wages.

And, no, I am not a collective-bargaining member.

James LaheyKamloops

Editor:I just attended a barbecue

this week, hosted by the striking workers at the Emterra recycling plant in Valleyview.

One of the messages brought home to me by the speakers was that we should be stockpiling our recyclables during the strike, rather than throwing them out with the garbage.

We should do so for a

number of reasons.Primarily, we will want to

eventually recycle whatever we have stockpiled.

Secondly, we do not want things that can be recycled to end up in a landfill, contributing to greenhouse gases in the atmo-sphere.

Finally, the workers on strike at Emterra will, hopefully, be back to work.

When they are, they will get the benefit of being paid to work with our recyclables.

Hopefully, the strike will not be long-lived. In the meantime, we can continue to do our part to help improve the environment.

Editor:I am writing as a proponent for the Ajax

copper and gold mine south of Aberdeen should the environmen-tal assessment meet with approval.

I shall remain a pro-ponent for Ajax if the assessment declares the mine safe to proceed.

After all, why would anyone put the cart before the horse?

Even common sense says you wouldn’t put together a thousand-piece puzzle without first knowing you had all the pieces.

We don’t have them regarding the pro-posed mine.

Not even mine proponent KGHM Ajax has been told anything regarding approval.

I welcome any new business seeking to invest in Kamloops and add to our econ-omy.

Who wouldn’t?As far as I can tell,

KGHM Ajax has been playing by all of the province’s environ-mental rules and will await a decision once it submits its applica-tion later this year.

Obviously it’s a thorough process, which even those opposed must certainly have now come to appreciate.

The environmental-assessment process

has not been fast-tracked.KGHM Ajax continues to play by our

environmental rules, but did anyone notice that, when the company bought Sugarloaf Ranch, it was a good corporate citizen to Kamloops and kept everyone at the ranch fully employed?

The company respected our local cul-tural heritage, cattle and ranching.

If these things are indicators of good will to come, then I remain a proponent for the proposed Ajax mine to re-open in Kamloops, subject to the ongoing and lengthy environmental assessment.

LOCAL NEWS

Beer drinkers and brewers alike are crying in their suds over price hikes by the B.C. Liberal government.

However, Kamloops-South Thompson MLA Todd Stone pledged yesterday that govern-ment will bring swift changes to help strug-gling small brewers.

The province quietly brought in changes in June that saw prices for craft beer increase by about 10 per cent in many cases.

“Our sales have

dropped,” said David Beardsell, who last year opened Red Collar Brewing on Lansdowne Street in downtown Kamloops.

“We haven’t lost cli-ents, but our sales have dropped.”

The increases come despite promises by Attorney General Susan Anton — who called predictions prices would go up “beer-mongering” — that drinkers would not pay more under the chang-es to the way liquor is sold in this province.

Prices for so-called “macro” beer, includ-

ing Coors Light and Budweiser, have remained the same or decreased.

Michael Lewis, owner and brewmas-ter of Three Ranges Brewing in Valemount, said the changes have boosted the price of his premium product to nearly $15 in private stores where it is sold.

“I’m the highest-priced six-pack in the store,” he said. “They’re pushing me higher up and out.”

In some cases, Lewis said, he’s had to make up the difference him-self, squeezing already

slim margins.An analysis by the

B.C. NDP found 74 beer prices increased, many by more than 10 per cent,

In his case, Lewis said, the cost of a Three Ranges Brewing six pack is 75 cents higher — all flowing right to Victoria’s bottom line.

Stone said he has met with small brewers and acknowledges the problems.

John Yap, the minis-ter responsible for the liquor review, is meet-ing with craft brewers.

While Lewis and Beardsell said they were told changes won’t be coming for a year,

Stone countered that relief is on the way.

“I can assure craft brewers inside and out-side of Kamloops that government’s intention is to fix this,” Stone said.

Kamloops is home to Red Collar as well as a production line for Whistler Brewing.

Stone said he met yesterday morning with Premier Christy Clark and Anton and received assurances “these issues are going to be fixed.”

Beardsell and Lewis said changes can’t come soon enough.

The Red Collar owner said he won’t last

a year with plummeting sales and reduced shelf space at private stores due to the hikes.

Lewis said he just made an investment in a new canning line — at a time when gov-ernment changes make selling beer in cans the least profitable part of his operation.

While Stone prom-ised changes, he did not say craft beer drink-ers will see shelf prices come back down.

“It’s really early to tell if it’s made an impact on consumers’ decisions,” he said, stressing government is only now getting a first look on sales data.

MLA Stone pledges relief for craft brewersCAM FORTEMS STAFF [email protected]

A reprieve from the heat?Cooler and wetter conditions fore-

cast by this weekend for much of the province may bring some relief for those fighting wildfires and suffering from drought conditions gripping B.C.

There are nearly double the number of forest fires burning compared to the average, lighting about 230,000 hect-ares. Conditions are resulting in water restrictions and smoky sky advisories.

Additional firefighters were brought in from Ontario yesterday, along with air tankers.

The province is using 600 contract-ed firefighters and has requested assis-tance from as far away as Australia.

Victoria has also contracted to use the massive Martin Mars water bomber stationed in Port Alberni that has been dormant for several years.

That aircraft is restricted to areas near the largest water bodies, Forests, Lands and Natural Resources Minister Steve Thomson told reporters in a con-ference call.

Provincial fire information officer Kevin Skrepnek said an average of 25 to 30 new fires are expected to start daily while hot and dry conditions persist.

But, the weekend is expected to bring cooler weather with some pre-cipitation.

In Kamloops, showers and lightning are expected today, along with some cloud, with temperatures dropping to about 30 C on the weekend.

Showers are forecast for Monday.The largest fire in the Kamloops Fire

Centre, near Lytton, is close to 100 per cent contained.

Kamloops fire-fighters are urging smokers to be cau-tious given the fact smoking-related blazes have caused more than $1 million in property damage so far this year.

Kamloops Fire Rescue investigator Sheldon Guertin said the most recent fire attributable to smok-ing was a small blaze in Brocklehurst on Saturday.

The cause of a Sahali apartment fire on Sunday has gone down as undeter-mined, but Guertin said it started in a planter on a balcony — something that is often the case with smoking-related fires.

“Based on how

the resources are throughout the prov-ince, people need to be careful,” he said.

“The majority of smokers are prob-ably doing everything right. It’s the other ones who need to have the awareness.”

In April, a smok-ing-related fire gutted a recently sold home in Barnhartvale.

Across B.C. this year, 279 fires have

been attributed to smoking materials. Losses total nearly $2.8-million.

Of that, almost $1.1-million comes from three smok-ing-related fires in Kamloops.

Guertin said smokers need to be careful.

“Smoke outside,” he said. “Have a non-combustible ashtray and make sure that ashtray is resting on something sturdy.

“Smoking fires are almost like kitchen fires — they’re almost 100 per cent avoid-able.”

Guertin also urged smokers to avoid butting out in plant-ers.

Sun Peaks Resort is known nationwide for its mountain-biking prowess and the best in the country will head up Tod Mountain Road this weekend for the Canadian Mountain

Bike Downhill Championships.“It’s a world-class facility, so we can

put on an event that’s pretty similar to the World Cup stage,” event organizer Henry Pejril said.

“For this level of race, you need a fairly technical course, so there have been chang-es made leading up to the event.

“You have to test the skill of the riders. It can’t just be who can let the brakes go and go down the track the fastest.”

National champions in elite and junior-expert categories will be decided on Sunday, when riders hit the trails from 12:15 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

There is only about a one-minute gap between riders starting their runs down the mountain, so action comes fast and furious all day.

The event, which doubles as a B.C. Cup race, is one of a few in Canada that is internationally sanctioned, meaning Union Cyclist International (UCI) points are on the line.

Elite riders need to amass UCI points to be considered for selection to the national team.

Racing will be open to the public this

weekend, with event passes available to anyone who wants to try out the course and test their time against the nation’s best.

On-site registration will be available today and tomorrow beginning at 9 a.m. each day.

Training and seeding runs will be held all day tomorrow. Spectators are invited to watch the action all weekend.

“You can take the chairlift up and hike down to just about any part of the course you want and there are a lot of sections on the course that are pretty exciting to watch,” Pejril said.

“People have their favourites, stake themselves out and have a bit of a picnic.”

Sun Peaks hosted nationals last year and they will be staged again in the resort’s bike park in 2016.

The resort has made an effort in recent years to make its bike park more manage-able to the average rider, having garnered a reputation of being on the higher end of the difficulty scale.

Course designer Tony Nordee and Sun Peaks mountain-bike park co-ordinator James Jeffries have been working hard to alter the course for nationals, making sure it provides a stiff challenge for the country’s best.

“That’s been the challenge,” Pejril said.“Being a bike park, it’s hard to have a

dedicated downhill course, so you have to stretch together sections of the bike park itself.

“We’ve modified it quite a bit from last year.”

Resort brass enjoys the national expo-sure it receives when it hosts the Canadian championships — and the riders seem to enjoy the mountain.

“It’s a bit of a festival atmosphere up here,” said Pejril, who has been organizing mountain-bike races at Sun Peaks since 1996.

“In the cycling world, Sun Peaks is pretty important and this is an important stop on the circuit.”

The trails have been groomed at Sun Peaks Resort, with the Canadian Mountain Bike Downhill Championships set to take over the bike park. The finals will be held on Sunday.

Tyler Tingle hadn’t been water-skiing since his accident.

But, a weekend on Shumway Lake in the summer of 2014 changed all that.

“For me, it was just cool to go out and try it again,” Tingle told KTW.

“I loved water-skiing before and to get back on the water again, 25 years later, after my injury, it was pretty cool.”

Tingle will again strap on a ski at Shumway this week-end, hitting the water with the Kamloops Waterski Club as part of its annual adaptive water-ski clinic.

The clinic runs tomorrow and Sunday, beginning at 9 a.m. each day.

Adaptive water-skis resemble a wakeboard in size and shape and are equipped with a seat made of an alu-minum cage and cloth sling, which holds ski-ers in place.

Athletes use their body weight to carve the water, with their feet and torso strapped firmly in place.

Adaptive water-ski-ing includes skis of all sorts, ready to handle everyone from begin-ners to those looking to take a shot at slalom or trick-skiing.

For those new to the sport, the ski club will pull a side-skier along-side its adaptive partici-pants, helping them to get out of the water for the first time, learn the

ins and outs of piloting the skis and to help in the event of a fall.

Also on hand to help coach will be Rob Gosse, a member of the Canadian national program.

“We had a club member who had a child with a disability and it was mentioned that other clubs were doing it,” Kamloops Waterski Club president Paul Dixon said.

“We took the plunge. We’re about water-skiing and we want to promote it. There are people out there who have challenges and we feel like we can help.”

Injured in a motor-vehicle accident in 1989, Tingle is a para-

plegic, but has always been active in the sporting world. He is an avid basketball player and has tried his hand at a smattering of other sports, including tennis and hand-cycling.

He’ll have plenty of company on the lake, with between 15 and 20 skiers expected to hit the water over the clinic’s two days.

While Tingle will be one of the more expe-rienced athletes on the lake this weekend, the clinic is for skiers of all abilities and injuries.

In 2014, Tingle said two quadriplegics and five paraplegics — one of whom was also an amputee — partici-pated.

“Get busy living or

get busy dying and I’m not going there yet,” Tingle said, speaking on the importance of staying active.

“When an oppor-tunity like this is given to people, it shows them, as well as other people, that there are still things you can go out and do [after an injury].”

The 45-year-old’s opportunity on Shumway certainly opened plenty of doors.

Following his intro-duction to the sport, he was invited to Florida by the national adap-tive skiing program, part of a week-long event intended to see if there was potential for people to progress

to competition-level in the sport.

Injured right before making the trip south, Tingle said he couldn’t do everything he had hoped when he was in Florida. But, now healthy and ready for another trip on the water, he’s looking for-ward to seeing what doors this weekend might open for him.

“Back on Shumway this weekend, it should be back to seeing what this could be like,” he said of his future in the sport.

“Finding something new and unique like water-skiing to do, that’s a great opportu-nity. It’s a lot of fun.”

The Games return to Albert McGowan Park (2025 Summit Dr.) tomorrow, with danc-ing, piping, drumming, heavy events and a beer garden among the attractions.

Gates open at 7 a.m., along with several food vendors, and the solo piping-and-drum-ming and highland-dance competitions begin at 8:30 a.m.

New this year are scotch tastings, with one sitting at 11 a.m. and another at 11:30 a.m.

It would not be the Kamloops Highland Games without a per-formance from the world-famous Simon Fraser University Pipe Band, which takes to the stage at 12:30 p.m., when the opening cer-emony and mass fling will also be held.

Entertainment will continue throughout

the afternoon, with the pipe-band competition set to begin at 2 p.m. and the mini-heavy-events competition for children starting at 2:30 p.m.

This thief had a plan.Early in the morning of Sunday,

July 5, a lone male suspect broke into the Pinantan General Store in the small community 40 minutes northeast of Kamloops.

The suspect broke through the front door of the store, then used a tow rope to remove the ATM from the building. The store security cameras recorded the suspect’s vehicle, as well as the suspect himself.

The bandit was wearing a balaclava, black hoodie, gloves, jeans and canvas shoes. The truck is a newer, white Ford F-350 King Ranch crew cab pickup with a sun roof, running boards, chrome mirrors and canopy with the glass door missing. The rear licence plate was covered.

There is an interesting point — beside the driver-side door post, the number “13” or “T3” can be seen in black lettering.

If you have any information on this break and enter or may have seen this vehicle, please contact Crime Stoppers. You will receive a cash reward upon the arrest of this suspect.

On Sunday June 28, at about 8:30 p.m., a City of Kamloops bylaw officer was attacked behind Memorial Arena at 740 Victoria St.

The female bylaw officer was investigating someone spray painting on the back of the arena and was struck by a man with a skateboard. He then

ran away, leaving the bylaw officer on the ground. She was taken to hospital, treated and released.

The suspect is a white man in his early 20s. He stood six feet tall and had blond streaks in his hair. He was carrying a backpack and a brown skateboard.

The Kamloops RCMP forensic unit

has seized several items that will be useful in identifying the suspect. There is no doubt he has spoken to someone about what took place.

If you have any information on this assault, please contact Crime Stoppers. Only your information will be used, never your name.

DO YOU KNOW THESE PEOPLEOn Sunday, July 5, just before 2 p.m., two males and a female entered the Michaels craft store on Hillside Drive — next to Walmart — and began to look around.

The three were in the store for a short period of time before leaving.

A store employee noticed a large number of felt markers were missing and store staff confirmed the theft when reviewing security video.

The two males took the markers and placed them in a backpack, while the female was the lookout.

The theft is valued at $1,600.There was a similar theft last year

involving the same type of felt markers and that case remains unsolved.

If you know these people, please contact Crime Stoppers. You will never have to go to court or give a statement.

The fallout from DeAndre Jordan’s decision to spurn the Dallas Mavericks and stay with the Los Angeles Clippers contin-ued reverberating through the NBA yesterday, the first day teams and players could officially do business in the new league year.

In Dallas, owner Mark Cuban was predictably unhappy. And, two general managers who weren’t involved in the saga wonder if Jordan’s turnabout will spark leaguewide change in how the off-season moratorium — and, really, free-agent talks in general — get handled going for-ward.

“It’s a weird way to do busi-ness, where agents will tell you we’ve signed a guy and we can’t comment,’’ Brooklyn GM Billy King said yesterday. “And, so I think from both sides, I think everybody realizes it’s something that has to be looked at.’’

Added Orlando GM Rob Hennigan: “The rules have been the rules for a while now. I don’t think this is the first time that something like this has happened. But that doesn’t mean that it shouldn’t be looked at.’’

How the Jordan saga played out is certain to be a hot topic at NBA meetings in Las Vegas next week. The NBA has not comment-ed on the Jordan matter.

Cuban spoke out yesterday via social media, his first public com-ments since the dramatic change of events.

“I don’t think the time is right to say anything beyond the facts

that he never responded to me at all yesterday,’’ Cuban wrote on the Cyber Dust messaging app.

“Not once. To this minute I have not heard anything from him since Tuesday night.’’

The Dallas owner addressed the message to Mavs fans. He did not mention Jordan by name, though it was obvious to what he was referring.

Cuban said he will eventu-ally have more to say about what transpired on Wednesday, when a group of Clippers travelled to Jordan’s home in an apparent last-ditch push to re-sign him.

“I thought I had a good pump fake,’’ Mavericks forward Chandler Parsons wrote on Twitter, another thinly veiled reference to Jordan chang-ing his mind and spurning the Mavericks.

Shane Larkin, who signed with the Nets as a free agent yesterday and spent his rookie season in Dallas, said it’s a difficult situation to talk about.

On one hand, he is happy for Jordan to be able to go where he wanted; on the other, he expressed confidence the Mavs would find a way to get past the mess.

But, when he committed to Brooklyn in recent days, Larkin took that pledge seriously.

“When I agreed, I didn’t pick up the phone for anybody else,’’ Larkin said. “That’s it.’’

It’s impossible to say how much of a domino effect Jordan’s last-minute flip impacted free agency for franchises and other players. If he had announced early he was staying with the Clippers, teams may have changed their free-agent strate-gies, including the Mavericks.

Former NBA executive Stu Jackson tweeted that changes could be coming to the system.

“Change to the moratorium system is imminent 8-9 days is too long and process could move back,’’ Jackson wrote.

The moratorium next year is scheduled to last from July 1 through July 11.

Earlier in the week, Cuban was fined $25,000 by the NBA for commenting about the team’s agreements with Jordan and Wes Matthews during the league’s free-agent moratorium. Cuban praised Jordan’s ability and dis-cussed the role he would have on the Mavericks during a radio interview.

Cuban said he offered Matthews the chance to back out of his handshake deal and that Matthews declined.

“Wes Matthews is exactly the type of player we want in a Mavs uniform and our fans will love him,’’ Cuban wrote in his mes-sage.

Free agency started on July 1 and players could agree to deals at any time after that window opens, but they could not become official until 12:01 a.m. Eastern time yesterday — the start of the new league year, one day after the salary cap and other financial matters for the coming season are released and finalized.

The Clippers announced at 12:05 a.m. yesterday that they were keeping Jordan, releasing a tweet saying, “We’re officially centred.’’

“In all the years I’ve been I guess doing this job or been in the league, I’ve never seen it,’’ King said.

“And I think it’s only going to get worse. So, I think as a league we have to look at it and maybe start the signing, everything starts the same time when the mora-torium ends rather than starting July 1.’’

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

DeAndre Jordan shunned the Dallas Mavericks and signed with the Los Angeles Clippers in a free-agent signing fraught with controversy.

NATIONAL SPORTS

VANCOUVER — One game into their season and the B.C. Lions are already looking at the CFL standings.

Coming off a disappointing loss on the road, the Lions host the Saskatchewan Roughriders in their home opener tonight before the teams meet again next week in Regina.

It’s a two-game stretch in mid-July that could go a long way in determining where the clubs end up come November.

“These West Division games, even early in the season, are hugely impor-tant,’’ said Lions quarterback Travis Lulay.

“We expect a great effort from them and we know we’ll get it. We know we have to put a good one together to win.’’

The Lions had a bye to open the schedule before falling 27-16 to the Ottawa Redblacks last weekend, while Saskatchewan comes in off two straight home defeats, including Sunday’s 42-40 double overtime loss to the Toronto Argonauts.

“It’s going to be a battle,’’ said Lulay.“They’re going to be kicking them-

selves because they were in position to win both of those football games and they didn’t find a way to get it done. They’re in a similar boat to us where they feel like they could have got an earlier jump in the win-loss column.’’

Lions linebacker Solomon Elimimian, last season’s most outstanding player, said it will come down to his team matching Saskatchewan’s desperation.

“It has to be a mindset where they’re 0-2, so they want it,’’ he said. “We’re 0-1,

we want it . . . but we’ve got to be ready to die for it. That’s what’s going to sepa-rate it.’’

Apart from the game being a crucial early-season matchup, it will also mark the return of a number of familiar faces to BC Place Stadium. Kevin Glenn started all but one game under centre for the Lions in 2014 because of Lulay’s well-documented shoulder injuries. Glenn signed with Saskatchewan to be the backup this off-season, but was thrust into the spotlight in Week 1 when starter Darian Durant ruptured his left Achilles tendon and was lost for the year.

“I just try and stay prepared,’’ Glenn

told reporters in Regina this week. “That’s one thing I was taught going into college and I’ve tried to carry it all the way through my career.’’

Veteran kicker Paul McCallum was cut by the Lions five days into training camp. He signed with the Roughriders — a club he originally left for B.C. in 2005 — and booted four field goals against Toronto.

Lulay said it will be strange to see McCallum on the opposite sideline along with former B.C. offensive co-ordinator Jacques Chapdelaine and offensive line coach Dan Dorazio.

“It’s weird,’’ said Lulay. “The only thing that’s constant is change.’’

LIONS SEEK FIRST WIN AT HOME

Travis Lulay and the B.C. Lions are aiming to avoid an 0-2 start to the CFL season tonight at BC Place Stadium. The Saskatchewan Roughriders will be in Vancouver, with game time set for 7 p.m. The Roughriders are 0-2, having lost last week to Toronto in Regina.

Milos Raonic is look-ing to resume his sea-son on home soil.

The native of Thornhill, Ont., is sidelined with linger-ing problems from foot surgery in May. But, he’s targeting the Rogers Cup in Montreal, which begins Aug. 7, for his return to the tennis court.

“Yes, that’s the objective for me now,’’ Raonic said during a conference call yester-day.

Raonic, who is ranked eighth in the world, underwent sur-gery to repair a pinched nerve leading to a toe.

The operation forced Raonic to miss the French Open.

He resumed play-ing in June and last week lost a third-round match to Australian Nick Kyrgios at Wimbledon. Raonic said the surgery fixed the nerve problem, but he’s now dealing with fluid buildup in the foot with which he is being cautious.

So, Raonic won’t

play for Canada’s Davis Cup squad in Belgium later this month. The team received another big blow yesterday when Tennis Canada announced Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil, who reached his first Grand Slam quarter-final at Wimbledon, wouldn’t play because of a severe bone bruise to his right wrist.

WimbledonThe Wimbledon

men’s semifinal round will be played today in London.

At 5 a.m., Novak Djokovic of Serbia will play Richard Gasquet of France.

Andy Murray of Great Britain will square off with Roger Federer of Switzerland at 7:30 a.m.

Serena Williams of the U.S. disposed of Maria Sharapova of Russia yesterday to advance to the wom-en’s final.

Williams will play Garbine Muguruza of Spain tomorrow for the title.

Muguruza topped Agnieszka Radwanska in the other semifinal yesterday.

The Little Unicornby Peggy Kociscin,Albuquerque, New Mexico

There lived a little unicorn(From when the earth was new),His coat so white it glistened,His eyes a sparkling blue.

In innocence and beauty,He danced through woods and

streams.The animals danced with him,His heart aglow with dreams.

He laughed and played with rainbows,

So happy all day through,He loved to kiss the flowersAs their petals shone with dew.

He wandered through the meadows

In the moon’s soft, silver light.He loved to gaze at all the starsThat lightened up the night.

He listened to the musicOf the birds that graced the trees.He frolicked with the butterfliesAnd raced the gentle breeze.

But, as he grew and learned of life,The sparkle in his eyeGrew misty as he realizedJust what it means to cry.

He learned that there are shadowsIn spite of shining sun.The more he grew, he found

that lifeWas never always fun.

For now he’d learn of feelingsThat come from deep within;No longer in the “dream world”Where (for so long) he’d been.

His gentle heart desiredBut to know the pleasure ofTo give and to receiveThe very precious gift of love.

To love meant to be happy,And yet it also brought him pain;For those he loved could hurt himAgain.. and yet again.

His mother held him lovinglyAnd tried to ease his fearsAbout the sadness life could

bring...The lonely, bitter tears.

She said, “Life is like a mountain,(And surely this is true)That we must climb as best we

can.There’s no ‘around or ‘through.’”

The unicorn tried tirelessly,And gave the climb his best;But he felt it was not good enough,He felt he’d failed the test.

He could not understand itWhen he felt himself rejected –When all his gentle being askedWas but to be accepted.

All this was just too much for him,He knew not what to do.That he was special as himself,Somehow, he never knew.

His spirit crushed, he felt defeated,And lonely tears would start.Not understanding how to love,It simply broke his heart.

But now he’s in a loving placeWhere all his pain has ceased,Where all accepted him and his

love,Where all he knows is peace.

A loving Being tells him,“You’re delightful as you are.”His spirit free, his brilliance nowOutshines the brightest star!

KATHLEEN THEOBALDDecember 29, 1937 – July 6, 2015

It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, Kathleen Theobald (née Peters) on July 6, 2015, aged 77 years.

She is survived by her daughters, Danaë and Reah (Clinton Coates), and her grandsons, Kai and Liam. She is also survived by her sister-in-law, Florence Theobald; nephews Matthew (Tiffany), Peter (Nasim), Gary (Marianne), Mark (Megan); niece, Renee; brother-in-law Theo Theobald; and many dear nieces and nephews in Germany. She leaves behind her cousins Joan Sage (Lorne), Alan Phillpotts (Anita), Barry Phillpotts (Edie) and their families.

She is predeceased by her loving husband of 50 years, Henry Theobald, her mother, Enid Peters, her brothers- and sisters-in-law; Oskar (Verena), Louis (Else), Alfred (Else), Edgar, Alphonse, Hila, Theresia (Albert), Gertrud (Josef), Marie; and her nephew Craig.

Mom was born in Wolverhampton, England and spent her early years in Hull. During the war, she and her mother immigrated to Canada to escape the Blitz. She grew up in Lloydminster, Saskatchewan, where she met and married the love of her life, Henry. After the birth of her daughters, the family lived in Germany, and then returned to Canada, settling in Kamloops. She studied commercial art at Cariboo College, and worked at Sears, where she made many good friends.

Mom was well known for her extraordinary sewing abilities. She made most of our clothing, theatre costumes, and dance outfits, including beautiful tutus. She was very talented in many arts and crafts, such as knitting, crocheting, and cooking; we fondly remember the paper dolls she made. She loved travelling, reading, and all her pets, especially Emmett. She was very devout, singing for many years in the choir at Our Lady of Lourdes. She will be overjoyed to be reunited with her beloved husband, Henry.

Prayers for Kathleen will be Friday, July 10, 2015 at 7:00 pm at Our Lady of Lourdes Church, (2573 Todd Mountain Road). The Funeral Mass is on Saturday, July 11, 2015 at 10:00 am at Our Lady of Lourdes.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to the Kamloops Hospice.

Special thanks to the loving staff at the hospice, and to Dr. Baker.

FAITH

Examining the real Christmas — in JulyI

t’s less than six months until Christmas.

But, who wants to think

about Christmas in the middle of the dog days of summer?

By “Christmas,” I don’t mean presents, Santa Claus, ad nau-seum commercials flog-ging questionable junk or over-the-top light decorations.

I mean the birth of Jesus Christ.

The Incarnation is arguably the most incredible thing that has ever happened in the history of humanity.

God becoming a man — actually a baby first.

Impossible?Ridiculous? A fanciful fable?Let’s set aside the

issue as to whether this is even possible for now and look at a more important question.

Why? Why would God

choose to do such a

thing in the first place? Perhaps the words

of Jesus himself give the best explanation.

Jesus was debating with the leading Jews in the synagogue in Capernum, who were challenging him to prove who he really was.

He answered them: “For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of Him who sent me . . . For this is the will of my Father, that every one who beholds the Son, and believes in

Him, may have eternal life and I myself will raise him up on the last day.”

That pretty much sums up his mission.

God wants to save all of us and the way He chose to do it was to send a personal incarnation and ask, not compel, people to believe in the Son whom He sent.

But, it still doesn’t answer the question of why was it necessary for God to become a man in order to accomplish this goal of salvation of humanity.

Why not just inspire an ordinary person to say wonderful things and perform miracles to convince people to repent and believe in God?

There are many faiths that believe Jesus was an inspir-ing preacher and great moral teacher.

But, they don’t believe he was God in the flesh.

It is what separates Christianity from all faiths.

And “faith” is an appropriate term because believing Jesus is God Incarnate is an article of faith — and one that is very hard to grasp.

Many wise thinkers have wrestled with this question over the ages.

One of them was Thomas Aquinas, a 13th-century Dominican friar and arguably the most influ-ential Catholic philoso-pher and theologian of the Medieval Age.

To this day, Catholic priests in training are required to study his texts.

He is regarded as a Doctor of the Church, an honour bestowed on only a few individuals throughout history who have made outstanding contributions to our understanding of the nature of God.

Aquinas’ Compendium of

Theology is the last book he wrote prior to his death in 1274.

Although it was unfinished, it was so erudite and full of wis-dom that it was pub-lished anyway.

In Compendium, Aquinas argues the fall of man was due to the original sin of Adam and Eve. It was a fall from grace that nei-ther Adam, nor any his earthly descendants, could remedy through their own efforts.

Indeed, scripture asserts, “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.”

The holiness of God requires not even a hint of evil or sin be permit-ted in his presence.

Yet, because He loves his creation, he wanted to bestow everlasting life, in heaven, on all who would believe in Him.

How could this be done?

Aquinas writes that no mere man could

effect the remedy of restoring all men to grace, nor could an angel.

“Nothing remains, therefore, but that such restoration could be effected by God alone.”

God could have restored mankind solely by His own will and power, but that would have violated divine justice, for “justice demands satisfaction for sin.”

The only solution, therefore, was for God to become man “so that one and the same per-son would be able both to restore man and to offer satisfaction.”

So, there’s the “why.” But, how could the

Incarnation possibly happen?

When my son was three years old, he saw two men arm-wrestling on TV and chal-lenged me to a duel of strength.

Of course, I supplied just enough resistance to give him a realistic

test of the strength in his little arm and let him “win,” all the while professing my great amazement at his supe-rior muscles.

I think most of us have done something like this with a little one, purposely limiting our true strength and presence.

Why? Because we love them and take delight in their joy.

I think the Incarnation is like that.

All things are pos-sible with God, so He self-limited his true strength and power in the person of Jesus.

Why? Because He loves us all and delights in our salvation.

NATIONAL NEWSNo fences to protect wayward tourists from ocean at Peggy’s Cove: minister

HALIFAX — The Nova Scotia government has firmly quashed the idea of installing fences on the large, smooth rocks at Peggy’s Cove, saying the barriers wouldn’t deter thrill-seeking gawkers from getting too close to the ocean.

Municipal Affairs Minister Mark Furey, speaking after a cabi-net meeting yesterday, said the government will instead install new warning signs in response to two recent incidents of people falling into the rough surf.

As well, Furey said the government is considering installa-tion of a fence around a nearby parking lot tourists use, saying the fence could guide them toward the warning signs.

“Under no circum-stances would we ever consider placing a fence out on the rock portion of Peggy’s Cove,’’ said Furey, a for-mer Mountie.

“My experience is that people go over and around those barriers.’’

Peggy’s Cove is famous for its land-scape of stark granite boulders, crashing Atlantic seas and post-card-perfect lighthouse.

But, the rocks can be slippery and rogue waves have been known to sweep onlookers into

the ocean.Earlier this month,

a 26-year-old Ontario man was rescued after falling from the rocks.

Mounties say he was in the ocean for 10 minutes before he was pulled from the churn-ing water by the crew aboard a nearby tour boat.

In April, a 25-year-old man from Ontario was swept off the rocks and wasn’t recovered.

The two incidents prompted a wave of commentary on social media, much of it hurl-ing abuse at people from outside the prov-ince who are unfamiliar with the fickle moods of the sea.

In a recent letter to the Halifax Chronicle Herald, a man who describes himself as a friend of the man rescued on July 2 said he was unaware of the danger of walking on the cove’s slick, black rocks.

“The danger of the ocean is unknown to most visitors to Atlantic

Canada,’’ the letter says. “We come for

sun, lobster and your famous hospitality. What we don’t recog-nize is the inherent peril of coastal activi-ties.”

The letter goes on to state the Nova Scotia government is “sitting on its hands while the visitors . . . die or are injured . . . [and] stat-ing that my friend was ‘lucky’ and that every-one from Ontario is stupid — as many have on social media — is a pathetic response.’’

Furey said a meeting Wednesday for provincial, fed-eral and local officials reviewed a 2010 report that outlined short- and long-term safety measures.

Another meeting will be held in two weeks following a site visit that will focus on improving signage, he said.

During a recent visit to the area, Furey said he noticed some warn-ing signs were missing

and others were diffi-cult to see.

One sign embedded in the rock warns: “Injury and death have rewarded careless sight-seers here.

“The ocean and rocks are treacherous. Savour the sea from a distance.’’

Furey said installing ring buoys, ropes and other safety equip-ment on the rocks could create additional hazards.

“It’s one thing to stand on a beach and toss an item, it’s anoth-er thing to stand on a slippery rock and toss an item,’’ he said.

As for reinstating a local patrol group, the minister said it wasn’t a good idea.

“People don’t always adhere to that kind of advice and direction,’’ he said.

In May 2000, the province cancelled a patrol program, say-ing it was impossible to guarantee the safety of the five students hired every summer to remind tourists to keep a safe distance from the water.

The May-to-October patrol was created in March 1995 after a couple was swept into the frigid Atlantic by a huge wave.

The man was pounded into the rocks, breaking his legs, while the woman was swept out to sea and drowned.

NATIONAL NEWS

TORONTO — Health Canada says it may change its guidelines for acetaminophen, based on concerns about the drug’s capacity to cause severe liver injury.

The department says it is consid-ering a new maximum recommend-ed daily dose for acetaminophen.

As well, it may require that all children’s liquid medications that contain acetaminophen be sold with an accurate dosing device to mini-mize the risk of overdose.

Health Canada says there are more than 4,000 hospitalizations a year in this country due to acetamin-ophen overdoses.

As a pain medication, acet-aminophen is sold as Tylenol and its generic equivalents, but many cold medications also include the drug.

The drug is the leading cause of all serious liver injuries — including liver failure — in a number of coun-tries, including Canada.

Health Canada says there are more than 250 cases of serious liver injury in Canada each year related to acetaminophen and more than half of those are due to unintentional overdose.

A recent federal report on acet-aminophen found that the numbers of unintentional acetaminophen overdoses in Canada are on the rise.

And, one out of every five acet-aminophen-related liver injuries

reportedly occurred in people who did not exceed the recommended daily maximum dose.

The recommended maximum daily dose is currently four grams per day.

Health Canada says more than 475 products containing acetamino-phen are licensed for sale and most are sold without prescription.

The department says it plans to change the labelling for products containing acetaminophen so the language is clearer and the risks of misuse are easier to understand.

The department says it will post a draft of the new labelling standards later this summer.

HAMILTON — Hamilton police say a dog attack is not what killed a man who died in the city Wednesday night.

Police have said the man, who has not been identified, was out walking the canine with another man in a resi-dential neighbourhood just after 11 p.m. when the incident took place.

Police say the dog attacked the man, who was found on the ground by officers

responding to a flurry of 911 calls made by people who lived in the area.

Officers say a pass-erby with a baseball bat tried to fend off the ani-mal, and officers used pepper spray to deter the dog before it was eventually captured with the help of an ani-mal control unit.

But after an autopsy conducted today, police say a forensic patholo-gist has determined the dog attack was not what caused the man’s death, although they

didn’t detail what did.Contrary to initial

reports that described the dog as a pit bull — a breed banned in Ontario — the dog has been identified as a sharpei-fila mix, weigh-ing about 20 kilograms, and is currently being held by Hamilton’s Animal Services depart-ment.

“The fila . . . they are aggressive animals,’’ said city spokeswoman Ann Lamanes.

The attack created a stir among those living in the area, with many

waking up to police cars and a marked crime scene on their street.

Mark Wall, who lives one street over from where the incident took place, heard piercing screams as he sat on his front porch Wednesday night.

“I heard those screams and I thought some guy was getting punched out,’’ said Wall, who described the area as a rough neigh-bourhood.

“He was screaming for his life.’’

CALGARY — Cameco Corp. and Areva Resources Canada have stopped shipping uranium from their northern Saskatchewan operations after wild-fires made highway transportation unsafe.

Cameco spokesman

Gord Struthers says the company suspend-ed shipments from the mines in the region about a week ago and Areva spokeswoman Veronique Larlham says that company did the same a few days ago.

But both say their overall uranium deliv-

eries are continuing normally because they have large inventories.

The operations affected are Cameco’s Rabbit Lake mine, McArthur River mine and Key Lake mill, the Cameco-Areva jointly-owned Cigar Lake mine and Areva’s McClean Lake mill.

OTTAWA — The Canadian mili-tary reported 18 new air strikes against targets belonging to the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant, but none in the latest round involve missions over Syria.

In the three months since Parliament granted an expan-sion of the air campaign only three attacks have been

conducted against what the Harper government sometimes described as the heart of the extremist movement.

The U.S.-led coalition has stepped up both the level of bombing and the public rela-tions campaign since Islamic State forces dealt a surprise blow to the Iraqi government and seized took control of the strate-gically important city of Ramadi.

Canadian navy Capt. Paul Forget says it’s clear that the

tempo of CF-18 missions has increased along with its allies, but he offered no explanation for the dearth of Syrian missions.

He did say the Canadian air task force takes its target lists from the coalition headquarters in Qatar.

Much of the debate about extending and expanding Canada’s combat mission in Iraq was focused on the advisability and the legalities of bombing ISIL in Syria.

LOWERING DAILY MAXIMUM ACETAMINOPHEN DOSES?

TORONTO — The C.D. Howe Institute’s monetary policy council is recommending the Bank of Canada keep its target for the overnight rate on hold when it makes its rate announcement next week.

Seven members of the think tank’s council voted to keep the key rate on hold at 0.75 per cent, while four sup-ported a cut to 0.5 per cent.

The split in opinion among members of the group comes amid

concerns about the economy and speculation Canada slipped into a recession in the first half of the year.

The Bank of Canada is widely expected to cut its economic outlook for the year when it releases its mon-etary policy report along with its rate announcement next week.

In its April outlook, the central bank predicted economic growth in Canada of 1.9 per cent this year.

The International Monetary Fund cut its outlook for Canada to 1.5 per cent yesterday as part of its down-grade for the global economy.

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

Music in the Park is Hijacked

From custom art installations to tribute concerts jam-packed with the region’s best singers, there’s a

lot going on as BC Living Arts takes the reins of Music in the Park tomorrow and Saturday in Riverside Park.

The second annual Music in the Park Hijacked will fea-ture two nights of live music from bands and singer-song-writers, but celebrations have expanded this year to include other aspects of Kamloops culture, said Alan Corbishley, executive director of BC Living Arts.

“It’s inclusive and Canadian and regional and celebrates Kamloops,” he said, summing up the goal for the event.

New this year is an interac-tive art park, featuring multi-ple installations which can be manipulated by the public.

Visitors to The Art We Are may already be familiar with one of them. Since the fall,

two booths at the back of the downtown cafe have acted as confessionals, where visitors can write down an anony-mous thought on a slip of paper and place it into a box.

Corbishley said the project was inspired by the cafe’s visi-

tors, who were already slip-ping small notes into nooks and crannies in the brickwork for others to find and read.

For Hijacked, the confes-sions have been turned into an installation by Thompson Rivers University fine arts

graduate Finn Modder and will be displayed on her large, wooden abstract sculptures.

“That’s going to be a rep-resentation of the inner lives and thoughts of the commu-nity of Kamloops,” Corbishely said.

ANDREA KLASSENSTAFF [email protected] PLEASE DON’T STOP THE MUSIC

All Music In the Park Hijacked con-certs run on the Rotary Band Shell stage at Riverside Park. Admission is free.

based four-piece rock band offers an energetic live show aimed to get the crowd moving with a blend of alt-coun-try, indie rock and folk punk.

Other art pieces also feature interaction, from writing down things to do before you die to manipulating sound and images through movement.

More collaboration will come on the Riverside Park Bandshell stage, as musicians and singers from around the region hit the stage to pay tribute to Canada’s musical legends, including Joni Mitchell and The Band.

Sabrina Weeks, one of about half a dozen singers perform-ing with a live band during the Saturday tribute, said even in early group rehearsals it’s been clear Kamloops is in for a great night of music.

“The musicians that are cho-sen for these two nights are the creme de la creme of Kamloops and area,” she said.

Corbishley said he wanted to stick to the region for perform-ers — and, with the exception of a bassist from Vancouver, was able to do so. Music selections are a nod to some of BC Living Arts’ other performances, includ-ing a Leonard Cohen tribute for Valentine’s Day.

Music in the Park Hijacked runs from 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. both nights, with music until 9:30 p.m.

again by B.C. Living ArtsMORE ART EXHIBITS AT THE PARK

Check out these other installations at the Interactive Art Park across from the Riverside Park Rotary Bandshell. All exhibits are open from 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. during Music in the Park Hijacked:

• Created by Taiwanese-American artist Candy Chang, Before I Die is an interactive art project on a global scale. The simple black-board wall, stencilled with the phrase ‘before I die I want to…’ multiple times have been recreated more than 500 times in more than 70 countries. Chang’s original installation went up on an abandoned house in her neighbourhood. Kamloops’ version went up in Riverside Park on Canada Day and will remain in place until the end of Hijacked.

Winners from the Kamloops Independent Short Shorts Film Festival will be played on loop from 6 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. in the (air-conditioned) Big Steel Box theatre. Films range in length from two to five minutes and popcorn is available outside the theatre. For a full list of shows, visit bclivingarts.ca.

• The movements of your hands control the music, while your body creates the art in Sign + Flow, a collaboration between Okanagan Valley artists and the UBC schools of music and com-puting, information and cognitive systems. Wander through the exhibit and create visual effects ranging from a flock of birds to ripples in water. Motion technology is used in the exhibit, includ-ing the Microsoft Kinect controllers used with the Xbox.

Cécile Doo-Kingué says music has been in her since before she was born.

But, her desire to pursue it professionally began in her teens, eventually landing her at McGill University in Montreal, where the born-and-raised New Yorker has lived for about 20 years.

Doo-Kingué was trying to get into McGill University’s music program at the time but, she said, they wouldn’t give her an audition because she didn’t already have formal music experience.

“Insane given most of the other jazzers in their program didn’t have any formal studies,” she said.

“I transferred schools.”She went on to earn a bach-

elor of fine arts from Concordia University but knows being a musician is more than the cer-tificate on her wall.

“Your education comes from playing, which is really the edu-cation I got,” she said.

When KTW reached the blues artist for a phone inter-view she had just started a tour that will land her in Kamloops for Music in the Park on Sunday night.

She is promoting her solo acoustic album Anybody Listening Pt. 1: Monologues, which was released in February.

It’s the first in a three-part trilogy, which connects blues and her roots, she said.

The song Third World Child, for example, is based on her experience and the lyrics tell a personal story: “Spit out the hatred, don’t swallow the lies. Always remember mama and papa’s pride. I’m a third-world child. The first world bastard-ized.”

Her parents were both born in Cameroon, in a generation that fought for independence — the right for education, jobs, respect, she said, and to be seen

as “first-rate citizens.”“It’s the experience of being a

person of colour in the States, a child of immigrants,” she said of the song.

“To have to reconcile your reality, which is a Western real-ity.”

She’s working on the next part of the trilogy — different from part one in that it’s “more fleshed out” — and will round out Part 3 with a live perfor-mance album, all expected to wrap up in late 2016 or early 2017.

While promoting her solo acoustic album at Riverside Park this weekend, her trio will also be on stage to perform songs from her first two albums and provide a glimpse of Part 2.

The free show starts at 7 p.m.To sample Doo-Kingué’s

music, go online to cdkmusik.com/musik. Her music will also be for sale at the park.

“The hills are alive with the sound of music....” Whether or not you know this line from the 1965 clas-sic The Sound of Music, it to-tally captures the essence of Whistler’s Outdoor Concert Series. Throughout the sum-mer, the hills of Whistler are alive with great music from a diverse lineup of talent. Grab your family and friends and enjoy the free outdoor concerts in Olympic Plaza.

“The unique feature of the Whistler Concert Series is that it has such broad ap-peal,” says Whistler Mayor Nancy Wilhelm-Morden. “When you look at the au-dience you see people of all ages.”

On July 30, the High and Mighty Brass Band com-bines classic New Orleans funk with modern Afro-beat and hip-hop infl uences. Find out why they’ve been described as “a party in progress.” Nahko and Medi-cine for the People take

the stage on July 31. Their sound is a fusion of cultural infl uences, and their raw storytelling never fails to connect with the audience. On August 1, Michael Franti and Spearhead blend hip-hop with funk, reggae, jazz, folk, and rock. This dynamic group will get you grooving.

At ninety-seven, Dal Rich-ards is one of the busiest musicians in Vancouver. Hear the legend perform on August 21 as he leads his or-chestra in classic big band, rock and roll, and pop tunes. August 22 features Cana-dian music power couple Raine Maida and Chantal

Kreviazuk in their exciting Moon vs Sun collaboration. Their musical inspiration comes from other greats like Joni Mitchell, Leonard Co-hen and Neil Young.

On August 28, check out a new genre of talk rock. Ca-nadian spoken-word artist Shane Koyczan and the Short Story Long enthral with a range that stretches from folk to funk, from ambient to rock. Twenty-eight years after the release of their fi rst album, Canadian country rock band Blue Rodeo is still going strong. On August 29, don’t miss one of Canada’s most successful bands.

No need to think about Labour Day and the end of the summer yet, but mark your calendar for more awe-some concerts. On Sept 5, Great Lake Swimmers en-tertain with their melodic folk rock songs. Long-time favourite Spirit of the West will ensure that on Septem-ber 6 the hills of Whistler are alive with rock, Britpop and Celtic folk.

Pack your blanket and a picnic and be captivated by the music in Whistler’s great outdoors. For the most up-to-date concert listings, go to www.whistler.com/events/ concerts/.

“What is wom-en’s soccer?”

It’s a ques-tion Sophie Schmidt answered in

one word.“Everything,” the

Canadian player told me after repeating the question.

She had just been knocked out of the Women’s World Cup during the quarter-finals in Vancouver, but beamed while snap-ping selfies with fans, including a hilarious one with my group of friends.

The question came because, after joining a group of fans that travelled to the Lower Mainland for the tour-nament, I’ve played my own defence off the field.

Discussions over the quality of play can be boiled down to a single heavy comment from the opposition: “It’s

women’s soccer.”It’s hard to swallow,

having played the sport since I could walk, as a team organizer in Kamloops Women’s Soccer League and, frankly, because I’m a woman and it’s an insult.

Even the FA back-tracked after tweet-ing England’s players would “go back to being mothers, part-ners and daughters” after the tournament ended because — no,

that’s not all they do.But, like a beaming

Schmidt after a loss, I’m taking the high road.

In giving people the benefit of the doubt — I’m assuming that, in 2015, sexism isn’t an issue, right? — let’s just say there are some who must be confused, some who maybe missed some-thing.

For clarification and recap, here’s a little perspective on wom-en’s soccer.

It’s the Netherlands’ masterful posses-sion back and fourth while so deep in their own zone Japan’s offence could pounce

at any moment for a shot on net.

It’s that same Netherlands team, whose goalie may as well have been called a sweeper for how active she was in regular play and how often she ran out of her safe zone to control the back end of the field.

It was Japan’s mid-fielders who spread so wide on the field they went beyond getting chalk on their boots and, at times, were actually off the field, ready to make a diago-nal run onto the ball, give and go or spring for a cross.

It’s England’s Laura Bassett saying she

preferred nobody knew her name after acci-dently scoring on her own team in the 92nd minute to lose to Japan and miss a chance at the final.

It’s 55,000 people standing and scream-ing in B.C. Place Stadium among a sea of red when Canada lost to England.

It’s “a tourna-ment that broke all records” according to FIFA, which included record-breaking audi-ence numbers — in the stadium, on televi-sion and online — and the first-ever hat trick scored in the tourna-ment’s final.

In Kamloops, it’s veterans and university players competing on the same pitch.

At World Cup, it’s really just some of the highest calibre of soc-cer in the world.

And, for some — it’s everything.

Xin Chao (good-day): Greetings from Laos, officially the Lao People’s

Democratic Republic. I’ve been riding local

buses across northern Thailand to the Mekong River and the Laos border town of Houei Xia.

Now, I’m travelling down the Mekong on a slow boat.

The river is broad with sandy banks, at times nar-rowing to rocky channels. The vegetation is lush and green, the area sparsely populated.

I overnight in Pakbeng, a bend in the river with a frontier town feel – rough, ragged, edgy. In the morn-ing there are elephants on the far bank, and the mist and rocks and rap-ids remind me of scenes from The Deer Hunter and Apocalypse Now.

The day brings increas-ing river traffic and larger village populations, peanut farms, women in coni-cal hats panning for gold, fishermen with nets, a limestone karst landscape and a stronger current tak-ing us to Luang Prabang, the UNESCO heritage site famous for its colonial architecture.

The night market is extensive and the Royal Palace houses a revered gold Buddha statue.

A couple of days later I’m on a hair-raising ride in a minivan across a moun-tain range. Heavy morning fog fills the valleys. As the road rises above the mist, mountain peaks punch their way through like

green islands in a foggy sea. There are hundreds of

switchbacks, hairpins and precipices as we climb to 2,000 metres. Villages cling to the cliffs, caught between the narrow road and the edge of the world.

The driver is by turns ruthless, reckless, relent-less. He hates being passed.

Eventually we arrive at Vang Vieng on the Nam Song River where the beer flows faster than the river.

This place has a repu-

tation for outdoor activi-ties — tubing, caving, rock climbing, hot air balloon-ing, kayaking, dirt biking — and partying.

Too many fatalities recently so the police have shut down some of the riv-erside bars.

Another minivan ride takes me into Vientiane, the capital, where one walks on the road because the side-walks are filled with parked cars and motorbikes.

The National Museum

houses a decaying artifact collection, much of which concerns the unofficial, “secret” war waged by the U.S. Laos has the dubi-ous distinction of having more bombs dropped on it per capita than any other nation on the planet.

Between 1964 and 1973, 260 million bombs were dumped on the country, of which an estimated 80 mil-lion failed to explode. UXO (un-exploded ordinance) projects continue, hop-ing to find the explosives before farmers or children stumble on them.

Next stop is the border town of Lak Sao with its single main street — wide, dusty, unpaved like a scene from a spaghetti Western.

This truck-crossing into

Vietnam is sparsely popu-lated with fledgling busi-nesses, a handful of tourists and one restaurant.

The market offers fresh fruit and vegetables for sale — and fly-blown fish, meat, rats, moles, squirrels and insects.

A short ride takes me across the Vietnam border to Vinh (birthplace of Ho Chi Minh) to catch the overnight train to Hanoi.

Now, I’m holed up in Hanoi’s Old Quarter fall-ing for the city despite the traffic which is killing me (almost).

Some cities have one-way streets, some two-way streets — Hanoi has all-way streets. Endless streams of motorbikes weave aggressively

between buses, trucks, cars, cyclists, pedestrians, street vendors and push carts.

One day I take a break from the city and visit Halong Bay, also a UNESCO site. Two thousand lime-stone islets dot the bay like stone soup. The scenery is breathtaking and the caves even more so.

But Hanoi’s Old Quarter is a source of wonder too — vibrant, vigorous, visceral.

Delicious pho (pro-nounced fa) is served in numerous noodle soup restaurants. Egg coffee is sipped on balconies over-looking Hoan Kiem Lake. Sidewalk food stalls, baker-ies, bars and cafes abound, intermingled with mini hotels and hostels, family shops, small businesses, and the never-ending hus-tle of street life.

The hammer and sickle flies prominently in both Vietnam and Laos.

But, there are many dif-ferences. Laos is languid, land-locked, laid-back. Vietnam is industrious and twice the size with 15 times the population — 90 mil-lion people versus 6.5 mil-lion for Laos.

Vietnam is strategic and fiercely independent having fought Chinese, Mongol, French and American invasions.

For much of that same period, Laos was consid-ered a backwater buffer state. In Hanoi, the traffic greets the dawn, in Laos the cocks crow lustily in the pre-dawn stillness. I take these contrasts home with me.

FUN BY THE NUMBERSLike puzzles? Then you’ll love sudoku. This mind-bending puzzle will have you hooked from the moment you square off, so sharpen your pencil and put your sudoku savvy to the test!

HERE’S HOW IT WORKS:Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
