KEVIN PARNELL/LAKE COUTNRY CALENDAR

LAKE COUNTRY senior Zelda Stensrud at the front door of her new affordable housing unit, unveiled in Lake Country last week.

KEVIN PARNELL

In the past, Lake Country senior citizen Zelda Stensrud tried a few different options of where to live out her golden years.

The 62-year-old wid-ow moved to the United States but came back to Lake Country because of that country’s health sys-tem. She moved in with her son but found she wasn’t meeting people her own age.

Last year Stensrud was accepted into Pine-wood Villas, a 10-unit affordable housing com-plex for seniors and people with disabilities in Lake Country. And she doesn’t plan to move out any time soon.

“I lived for many years with my family because I could not afford hous-ing,” said Stenstrud. “But these units make qual-ity living possible. This is a wonderful place and I can’t thank everyone enough for what these have done for seniors.”

The 10-units of af-fordable housing came about through a partner-ship between the gov-ernments of Canada and B.C. as well as commun-ity partners like the So-ciety of HOPE,which manages and operates the building. The two levels of government helped to build the units at a price tag of $1.4 mil-lion, through the Can-ada-British Colum-bia Affordable Housing Agreement.

For Stenstrud, it has

given her her independ-ence back and she’s more active in the community.

“I’ve made some great friendships since I moved in here,” she said. “I didn’t have that living with younger people. It gives you your independ-ence and the opportun-ity to explore friendships with people your own age.”

Lake Country coun-cilor Owen Dickie was on hand at the ribbon-cutting ceremony to open the Pinewood Vil-las. He said it was great news for senior citizens in Lake Country but said there is more work to be done in the community which has a higher than average number of sen-iors as compared to the national average.

“We’re starting to make a difference but it’s

going to be a slow pro-cess (fi nding enough housing for seniors),” he said. “There are groups still untouched in the community like handi-capped people and low income earners that re-quire housing. It’s not perfect but we are work-ing as hard as we can to make a difference.”

The opening of the Pinewood Villas cer-tainly made a differ-ence for Zelda Stensrud. She joked that she isn’t moving until she has to go into a nursing home and was happy to have a quality place to live and make friends.

“It’s so wonderful,” she said. “I’ve been able to open up and fi nd out what people my own age are doing and talk to people about what it’s like to live as a senior.”

A new lifestyle to explore

Pinewood Villas, located at 10274 Bottom Wood Lake Road in Lake Country, is a seniors rental housing develop-ment that provides 10 units of affordable modular housing for seniors and people with disabilities in need.

Modular housing has been used extensively for sen-iors’ rental housing developments as it allows construction to take place in a factory with less dependence on weath-er conditions. The modular units meet EnerGuide 80 stand-ards and are designed to be easily accessible for seniors and people with disabilities. This includes room sizes that allow for wheelchair access and manoeuvring, shelves and light switches at an accessible height and bathroom grab bars orstep-in showers.

Partners and Funding:The total capital cost of this project is approximately

$1.7 million.• The Government of Canada provided $742,500 under

Canada’s Economic Action Plan—Housing for low-income seniors and housing for persons with disabilities.

• The B.C. government invested approximately $718,500 toward this project and provided the land.

come to the realization that your body just can’t push anymore,” he said. “If I would have tried to run I would have fall-en over. Your mind just gets worn down. If you fall your race is going to be over. As soon as that ambulance comes and gets you, you are out of the race. I had family and friends waiting at the end and I didn’t want to let them down.”

Continuing to grind it out, Schmidt focused on walking from aid sta-

tion to aid station, set up every couple of kilo-metres. After walk-ing for more than 20 km, Schmidt was fi nal-ly given some chicken broth at an aid station and his body welcomed the boost.

“I was eating water-melon and pretzels and things like that and it wasn’t working,” he said. “But as soon as I start-ed drinking this chick-en broth I started feeling better.”

By that time there

was about seven kilo-metres left in the run and Schmidt put the pedal to the metal, running hard and passing other com-petitors who were stag-gering towards the fi n-ish line.

“When I started sprinting that last sev-en kilometres I’m sure people were thinking this guy is going too hard too soon,” he said. “I just knew this chicken broth I was drinking was the ticket.”

And it was the ticket, as Schmidt was able to fi nish strong, completing the Ironman in 12 hours and 16 minutes, slow-er than his fi rst Ironman in 2011 but still fi nishing it nonetheless, a huge ac-complishment.

“I wasn’t really dis-appointed that I didn’t beat my time from lsat year,” said Schmidt. “I was more proud of my-self that I did the best I could. That’s what mat-tered to me. I tried my hardest and I didn’t quit. I went as hard as my body would let me.”

In the end Schmidt placed 840th out of close to 3,000 participants. He struggled for a large part of the run but found something deep inside him and completed the grueling event. He hasn’t registered for next year’s Ironman but says he will do another.

“I’m satisfi ed,” he said. “I’m not disappointed. I’m not jumping for joy over it. It was a good fi n-ish out of all the partici-pants. If it wasn’t for my nutrition I’m confi dent I would have beat my per-sonal best.”

As Lake Country resi-dent Marty Schmidt transitioned from the bike to the run portion of last weekend’s gruel-ing Penticton Ironman Canada race he was in good position to com-plete the race with a per-sonal best time.

The 38-year-old had

a strong swim (3.86 km) and a solid bike (180 km) portion of the event.

But he still had the 42 kilometre marathon por-tion to complete.

And it would turn out to be the tough-est stretch, mentally and physically in the day-long race.

“I had a strong race

in the swim and the bike and for about 13 kilometres of the run,” said Schmidt on Tues-day, back home in Lake Country but still sore from the race. “But after that I hit a wall. I had no energy. I had to walk for the next 22 kilometres. It was kind of defeating.”

As Schmidt walked

the course, along with many other participants, ambulances zipped up and down the highway, making sure each run-ner’s health was OK.

Running through Schmidt’s mind was just a single thought: Don’t let them take me off the course.

ANDRE LODDER/MORNING STAR

In the Central Oka-nagan School District some 21,000 students have returned to school and are getting there, and home again, in many different ways.

Children are travel-ling to and from David-son Road, Ellison, Peter Greer, Oyama Trad-itional and George El-liot schools by public or private transportation as well as on bikes, roller blades, skateboards and foot.

As a motorist, what does that mean for you?

It’s simple: When you’re driving, slow down and watch for chil-

dren. It doesn’t mat-ter whether or not you’re in a school zone as kids have to walk from their neighbourhood to get to school so there are go-ing to be children every-where, even if a school isn’t nearby. School zones are good reminders to slow down but there will be still be children run-ning around, darting in and out of traffi c outside of school zones.

Slowing down doesn’t just apply to 8:30 in the morning and 3:30 in the afternoon (or whenever school lets out in your area). Children who live near school might go

home for lunch. Or, chil-dren might be late get-ting to school or going home early.

Don’t forget, it’s not just children you have to watch out for, as school buses are back in service. A school bus displaying its stop sign and fl ash-ing red lights means you must stop until the lights and signs are deactivat-ed, regardless of which direction you are headed. School buses also tend to be an obvious indica-tor that children will be nearby.

It’s crucial that driv-ers slow down in school zones, watch for cross-

walks, and be mindful of School Traffi c Safety Patrollers. “Be alert and watch for kids riding to school on their bikes,” says Regional Traf-fi c Safety Offi cer Dave Gibson. “We all want our children to arrive at school and home safely.”

Members of the RCMP Central Oka-nagan Traffi c Services and speed watch volun-teers will be stepping up their presence, making school zones a priority in the early days of back to school. School zone speed limits are 30 km/h between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through

Friday.“We strongly encour-

age students and their parents to consider walk-ing or cycling to school to reduce traffi c conges-tion around the schools and increase student safety,” said Offi cer Gib-son.

Tips for Pedestrians:1. Remove your head-

phones; put away your phone, MP3 player or other gadgets when crossing a street. Focus your full attention on the road so you can see, hear and respond safely.

2. Use designated crossing points and fol-low pedestrian traffi c

signs and signals. Make eye contact with drivers, so you both know you see each other. The most common road safety er-ror made by kids is not fi nding a safe place to cross. Teach your child to cross at intersections that have a pedestrian cross-ing light or a marked crosswalk whenever pos-sible.

3. Dress to be seen. Wear bright or light col-oured clothing. In dark or bad weather, wear re-fl ective material on clothes or accessories.

4. Always walk on the inside edge of the side-walk—away from the

road. This way, you’re further away from the traffi c. If there is no side-walk, always walk fa-cing traffi c so you can see oncoming vehicles and drivers can see you.

5. Be aware of parked vehicles in parking lots and on the road. Drivers may not see you between parked vehicles and you may not see them mov-ing. Before crossing or walking through a park-ing lot, stop and look left-right-left around the parked vehicle and avoid taking unnecessary

I had another birth-day last weekend. Although as I write

this column, thanks to the deadlines of pub-lishing, it hasn’t hap-

pened yet. So I’m antici-pating my birthday as I write. But I have no way of knowing if I will be around to celebrate it.

Which is, oddly enough, pretty much the way my life has unfolded. Things I planned, things I dreamed about, didn’t always work out. But the

unexpected things that did happen more than made up for it.

According to Myers-Briggs Personality Types, I’m an INTP—intro-verted, intuitive, think-ing, perceptive. That means I prefer to look inward than outward. I’m more likely to antici-pate the future than to immerse myself in the present. I tend to analyze rather than empathize. And (perhaps paradox-ically) I’m more likely to go with the fl ow than re-quire a rigid plan.

Here’s an example. Two weeks ago, I took friends to Maligne Can-yon in Jasper Nation-al Park. The morning sun slanted low through the trees, through the mist rising from the roil-ing water, etching the canyon walls with deep shadows.

My friends were awe-struck.

Living in the future loses its appeal when there’s less future

▼ FAITH TODAY

I was as surprised as anyone to hear about the plan by

this newspaper’s owner, David Black, to begin regulatory work on an oil refi nery for Kitimat.

I’ll leave it to others to comment on the practi-cality of that plan, and whether it would make the proposed Northern Gateway pipeline pro-ject more acceptable to B.C.’s government and population. Black Press news coverage, columns, letters to the editor and other reader comments are not affected by this project, and there has been a range of views ex-pressed already.

Whatever the merits of the refi nery idea, it has advanced the debate over pipelines and the place of oil in our society. And that’s a good thing, be-cause as someone with a basic knowledge of chemistry and some ex-perience in oil refi ning, I have noticed a lot of ig-norance about the sub-ject.

Today I’d like to ad-

dress some of the main misconceptions, which have been exploited by some opponents. The fi rst one is oil pollu-tion in general and how it gets into the environ-ment.

A global study by the Smithsonian Institution in 1995 calculated the amount of oil making its way into oceans this way: Big tanker spills ac-counted for 37 million gallons a year, about fi ve per cent of the total mar-ine oil pollution identi-fi ed.

By far the largest source was oil runoff from land into drains,

from oil changes, mu-nicipal and industrial wastes and other sources: 363 million gallons. Bilge cleaning and other routine ship mainten-ance added 137 million gallons, four times the tanker spill average.

Air pollution from vehicles and industry de-posited hydrocarbon particles equal to another 97 million gallons; nat-ural seeps added 62 mil-lion gallons; offshore drilling discharges ac-counted for 15 million gallons.

So that’s the fi rst thing to understand. It’s not tankers and pipelines doing most of the pollut-ing. It’s you and me.

Then there is the propaganda about green-house gas emissions from the oil sands crude. Actor Robert Red-ford is one of the high-est-profi le pitchmen for the false notion that “tar sands” oil generates three times the greenhouse gases as conventional oil.

The facts are clear. The most widely cited

source is a graph pre-pared by Cambridge Energy Research Asso-ciates, which shows that 75 per cent of green-house gases from all types of crude occur when the gasoline, jet fuel and diesel are burned by the end user.

Yes, there are vari-ations in emissions on the remaining quar-ter. Emissions from mined oil sands crude are slightly higher than steam extraction, which is slightly higher than conventionally drilled and pumped crude. The most greenhouse gas-intensive crude used in North America is Cal-ifornia heavy crude, which is conventional-ly drilled.

Burning coal produ-ces far more greenhouse gases than oil, as Univer-sity of Victoria climate scientist Andrew Weaver has calculated.

Two U.S. environ-mental groups, includ-ing the one fronted by Redford, have lately been promoting a study that

suggests oil sands crude is more corrosive to pipe-lines. False, says the in-dustry, showing analy-sis of pipes that have car-ried diluted bitumen for decades.

The Trans-Moun-tain pipeline has been carrying crude from Al-berta to Burnaby and Washington state for more than 60 years. It has periodically carried heavy crude for 40 years, and diluted bitumen for 25 years.

Some of that crude is refi ned in Washing-ton and the gasoline and diesel barged up to sup-ply B.C. gas stations. And of course Vancou-ver Island, Haida Gwaii and all other B.C. islands depend on marine fuel shipments.

And let’s not forget the most common heavy oil used in B.C.—it’s called asphalt.

But I think I got more pleasure from anticipat-ing their enjoyment than from being there myself.

Anticipation often surpasses reality.

I was 11 when my missionary parents brought me to Can-ada. I had read Ernest Thompson Seton’s books about living in the Can-adian woods. I knew about voyageurs and fur traders. I imagined my-self fearlessly braving un-tracked wildernesses.

An urban fourplex in Toronto didn’t quite measure up.

Later I dreamed about becoming a writer. In-deed, I did become one. But it wasn’t as glamor-ous as I had dreamed.

I had a few miscon-ceptions about being a husband and father, too.

Not that life has been a disappointment. Far

from it. I’ve visited places many people have bare-ly heard of. I’ve met the movers and shakers of church, government and business. I’ve received half a dozen honorary awards.

But all of those came as unplanned bonuses.

Sometimes I think Someone manipulates events so they work out right. Sometimes I give that Someone a name—God.

But then my intuitive

side confl icts with my thinking side. Because my rational thinker re-jects the notion of a deity who diddles with reality for one individual’s bene-fi t. Bluntly put, I refuse to believe in a God who saves one person from a tsunami and lets 400,000 others drown; who heals one person’s cancer and lets others expire miser-ably; who gives one per-son fi nancial security while others scrabble for scraps.

And yet… Over and over, things

have happened at the right time. Meeting my wife. Getting job of-fers out of the blue. Be-ing chosen as a friend. I didn’t plan these, didn’t earn them, didn’t deserve them.

As another year ticks by, I realize I can’t make long term plans anyway. I won’t live forever. The time I have left is much shorter than the time that has already passed.

So I might as well go with the fl ow, and see what happens. There’s

no point in anticipat-ing a future that may not happen. Whether or not Someone is watching

over me. Jim Taylor is an Oka-

Why make big plans for future when serendipity has so much to offer?TAYLOR FROM A6

By now, most of you should have already re-ceived your Notice of

Assessment from the Canada Revenue Agency.

Since this NOA is attached to their refund cheque, most people get all twitchy and ex-citedly rip open the envel-ope and tear off of the bottom cheque portion.

The top piece is generally discarded without any further conscious thought.

My most invaluable retire-ment tip for the summer is that you should retrieve that crumpled paper ball out of the recycling, smooth it out and carefully check the very valu-able information that is on it.

Here’s what you should look for and a few ideas on what to do with it.

1) The refund or balance owing: Your NOA lets you know if you are getting a re-fund or if you have a balance owing.

You will also see if any cor-rections have been made to your return by the CRA.

Do you agree with their corrections? If you got a re-fund, what did you do with this ‘found money?’ Did you spend it on shoes? Did you use it to pay off a credit card? Is it sitting in a savings account?

Just for fun some time, take a simple calculator, and see for yourself the power of com-pounding within an RSP or the benefi t of paying down a loan or mortgage with an

additional lump sum payment.2) Total Income: This form

shows your total income on line 150.

Take the time to review how much of that income is fully taxable interest income (line 121), lower taxed divi-dend income (line 120) and capital gains (line 127).

Should you consider shel-tering less tax effi cient invest-ments in tax sheltered plans such as a TFSA or RRSP?

3) RRSP Deduction Limit: This limit represents the max-imum amount that you can contribute to your RSP and deduct from your taxable in-come in any given year.

There are two lines in par-ticular to focus on in the RRSP deduction limit section of the notice of assessment.

RRSP Deduction Lim-it: If you don’t contribute the maximum for a given year, the amount not used accumulates and is added to the contribu-tion room for future use.

For unused RSP contribu-tions, you may also contrib-ute the maximum or any part thereof but elect not to apply the deduction to your tax re-turn.

You may elect to defer the deduction from your tax return until a future year when you anticipate higher earnings and more taxes are payable.

Meantime, the contribu-tion will benefi t you immedi-ately in the RSP from tax shel-tered growth.

Any capital loss realized in a year must fi rst be used to re-duce capital gains realized in the same year. If the capital losses exceed the capital gains available for offset, these will be shown as an unused capital loss on the NOA.

These unused capital loss-es can be carried back three years and applied against pre-vious capital gains so it would be worthwhile to check your previous tax returns for cap-ital gains.

Many business own-ers want their leg-acy to continue.

Unfortunately, according to BDO Canada, only one-third of family-owned busi-nesses survive the transition to the second generation, with just a third of these get-ting to the next—a mere one in 10 chance of the business surviving for three genera-tions.

Often, the reason is insuf-fi cient planning.

Similarly there is insuffi -cient planning for the per-sonal fi nancial manage-ment that follows the transi-tion from a business-derived income to a retirement in-come.

While division of the es-tate may be thought out, of-ten the management of re-tirement income is not.

When the business own-er moves from work into re-tirement, there will be port-folio considerations beyond the generation of investment income.

These include, but are not limited to, such things as cost-effective withdrawals from tax-deferred accounts, various clawbacks, differ-ent risk assessments, and in-come related to the ongoing business.

An advisor needs the right skill set to handle these new challenges.

When fi rst saving for re-

tirement, investors often choose an advisor of a simi-lar age because they feel that the advisor can better relate to their life circumstances.

While this may work well during growth years, it can lead to problems as retire-ment approaches.

Advisors of the same age might be mapping their own retirements and planning to exit the investment industry. Whether that is good or bad depends on the advisor.

Some retiring advisors will transition their business to younger advisors or asso-ciates.

They carefully choose successors who will best serve their clients, and work closely with them to ensure they are a good fi t in terms of business and investment philosophies.

Some advisors introduce their successors to clients and start the transition pro-cess early.

Other advisors may not be as caring or thorough, choosing instead to sell their book of client business to the highest bidder.

Whether the transition is thoughtful or not, the re-tiree must make certain that the new advisor is the right match, with a clear under-standing of retirement goals, and can provide a written Investment Policy Statement detailing how the portfolio will be managed.

A good advisor will also perform a critical role be-

yond management of the re-tirement portfolio.

It is to lessen the business owner’s worry about the dif-fi cult issue of assets surviving generational transfers.

It is a very important top-ic that typically does not re-ceive enough discussion.

Too often, advisors focus on getting the assets ready for transfer but do not pre-pare the inheritors for han-dling the newly acquired wealth.

It is a process that involves sensitive communications between the advisor and the family members, made more delicate as shortcomings are identifi ed.

That may be why some advisors choose to avoid such conversations.

However, the better ad-visors see it as their duty to prepare clients’ families by identifying and rectifying any weaknesses prior to tran-sition.

The trust that is built by the process benefi ts all.

A business owner wants to prevent the family for-tune going from shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves in three gen-erations.

Succession plans, wheth-er business or personal, help ensure that legacies continue.

That planning takes time but it is time well spent.

Kim Inglis is an investment advisor and portfolio manager with Canaccord Wealth Man-agement, a division of Canac-cord Genuity Corp.

TIPS FOR DRIVERS:When school is in ses-

sion, a 30 km/h school zone speed limit is in ef-

fect from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. every school day, unless otherwise posted.

1. Plan ahead and be

alert. Driving routes with less traffi c in the sum-mer may now face con-gestion, so give yourself extra time to get to your destination. Take your time and don’t rush - es-pecially through inter-sections. Look for chil-dren especially near or around crosswalks and intersections close to schools.

2. When dropping off children in a school zone stop and allow them to exit onto the sidewalk side of the car. Never al-low a child to cross mid-block.

3. If a vehicle is stopped in front of you or in the lane next to you, they may be yielding for a pedestrian, so be pre-pared to stop.

4. Always watch for pedestrians when you’re backing up. Before you get into your vehicle, make it a habit to walk around your vehicle to ensure no small kids are behind it.

And remember, chil-dren will notice your driving behaviour as well as your pedestrian be-haviour, so please set a good example for them.

Appropriately titled Bloom, an exhibition of Angela Hansen’s new abstract art works is cre-ated in encaustic paint-ing—a medium she de-scribes as mysterious, se-ductive and luminous.

The work is being fea-tured at Ex Nihilo Vine-yards’ Creatio Gallery and is the culmination of 10 years of pondering, self-refl ection and in-spiration.

The opening at Ex Nihilo is Sunday Sept. 2 from 2 to 4 p.m.

“Encaustic paint’s warmth, depth, rich-ness of colour and tran-sitory personalities has drawn me into its spell. My work is a refl ection of explorations with this intriguing medium,” she said. “And the bonus is it also smells good.”

Hansen is an Emi-ly Carr graduate and a B.C. native. Current-ly she is an art instructor

and the fi ne arts depart-ment head at George El-liot Secondary in Lake Country. She has been a teacher in School Dis-trict 23 for the past 11 years.

“I believe being able to think and solve prob-lems creatively is an im-portant life-long skill for young people to have—it is that skill I hope they learn in my classroom,” she said. The works in Bloom capture this phil-osophy of growth, the potential and truth in transparency.

“The Sanguin-ea Melancholia paint-ings are my favourite be-cause they represent a very emotional time in my life, this past year, of the extensions and growth,” she said. “There is a push-pull action go-ing on in the works that I feel many people can relate to in their own lives, and while there

may have been discom-fort during that time, I recognize now that my current awareness of life’s experiences could not have been achieved without that journey.”

Hansen also attrib-utes her greater appre-

ciation of encaustic and abstract form after the birth of her son in 2008. As a mother she can see and relate to the layers of encaustic and painting to the growth of a new hu-man being.

The tools for her

works include a small (crème brulée) torch, an old pancake griddle, a heat gun, a small iron, a crock pot and then as-sorted dental tools and brushes. The results are beautiful and ethereal.

Hansen will be in at-tendance at the show’s opening, 2 to 4 p.m. on Sept. 2, along with a few fellow Creatio Gallery artists including Julia Trops, and Angela Bon-ten. Hours for viewing the art works are 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. seven days a week.

Hansen will also be showcased Sept. 8 and 9 at the annual Lake Country ArtWalk in the Lake Country Com-munity Complex.

JENNIFER SMITH

STAFF REPORTER

One might say, the or-chard is the apple of Jul-ie Elliot’s artistic eye, at least the Canadian or-chard.

A veteran grower her-self, Elliot’s installation stands as an example of the Art for Change the-me of this year’s Lake Country Artwalk, and she’s taking a bite out of the free trade debate with the work.

Illustrating how Ame-rican apples fl ood the Canadian market, ma-king it diffi cult for or-chardists to survive, she hopes to give all those who stop by her print in-stallation a taste of the disparity between Ame-rican and Canadian gro-wers.

“The market is just deluged with American apples,” she said. The art work “was made for the 2011 growing season, and at that time I think there were 109 million boxes of apples in Wash-ington to three million grown in B.C.”

The original piece thus had 109 prints of apples representing 109 million boxes of apples each; in the middle of all those boxes sit three real apples, impaled on spi-kes, depicting the Cana-dian portion of the fruit business.

Looking at the sea of red swirling images, it’s easy to see the imba-lance; and the point co-uld equally be made for cherries.

This year cherry or-chardists topped the headlines with stories of fruit crops left to rot on the trees because cheap fruit coming up from the States eliminated Cana-dian growers’ profi t mar-gins.

Even as a grower, El-liot says the farmers’ plight can seem baffl ing unless one is confronted with an illustration of what’s happening.

“I knew it intellec-

tually, but until I made that visual connection, I didn’t really have the full (scope) of the issue,” she said.

Her point in making this piece is to demon-strate how important it is to buy B.C. Every year, she and her husband

stop in at grocery stores throughout the province to see if there are Cana-dian apples for purchase, often with dismal results.

“I think it’s impro-ving,” she said. “For ye-ars, you wouldn’t be able to buy anything other than American, but to-day you can usually fi nd some (Canadian).”

When she installs “Buy B.C.,” as the pie-ce is called, it will have evolved. There are now four million boxes of Ca-nadian apples grown and sent to market to 116 million American; hen-

What question would you like a qualified professional to answer?

AGA™SRES®

First of all, make sure that you have a notebook or file where you can make notes and information on each home you see. Your Realtor will provide you with

a fact sheet containing the property information on each home you visit. When you walk through a home, pay attention to details and make notes on the following; note if there are any stains or bulges on the walls or ceilings and watch for crumbling grout around bathroom tile and tub. Check that doors and windows close smoothly and fit snugly and have no loose caulking and drafts. Be aware of the condition of the floors and feel that they are solid with no excessive squeaks or soft spots. Look in closets, behind closed doors, under area rugs for hidden surprises. Think about where you will be able to store tools, gardening equipment, sports equipment, etc. Look for signs of structural damage like cracks in the foundation or soggy areas. Will your furniture fit and where will you place certain items? Most important, you should make notes for yourself on your overall feeling for the property. These notes, and the property’s fact sheet, will help you narrow down your search and will help you make a great home purchase decision!

What should I focus on when my Realtor and I go out to view homes?Q Q I received a flu shot

last year; do I need to get one this year?

A ADo all puppies have worms?

Intestinal parasites are very common in puppies but dogs of any age can carry worms. Puppies can become infected with some types of intestinal worms before they

are born or later through their mother’s milk. The microscopic examination of a stool sample will usually help us to determine the presence of most intestinal parasites. Even if we do not get a stool sample, we recommend the routine use of a deworming medication that is safe and effective against several of the common worms of the dog. We do this because our deworming medication has little, if any, side effects and because your puppy does not pass worm eggs every day so the stool sample may not detect worms that are present but not shedding eggs. Additionally, some of these internal parasites can be transmitted to humans. It is important that the deworming is repeated because it only kills the adult worms.Within three to four weeks, the larval stages of the intestinal parasites will become adults and need to be removed. Dogs remain susceptible to re-infection with hookworms, whipworms and roundworms throughout their life. Periodic deworming throughout the dog’s life is recommended to keep them parasite free and to protect your family from becoming secondarily infected.

The influenza vaccine (flu shot) that you received last year will likely not protect you from the flu

this year. Each year, the influenza virus can change slightly, making the vaccines used in previous years ineffective. Each year, a new vaccine must be prepared that will effectively protect against the expected type of influenza virus.

Viruses rapidly mutate (change their structure), leading to new subtypes of the virus. Scientists can often predict which subtypes or strains of the virus will cause infections and will prepare vaccines accordingly. As these strains vary from year to year, revaccination is required annually.

A fixed denture replacement solution consists of a dental implant bridge

(sometimes called permanent dentures) that is supported by four or more dental implants. By using dental implants to secure the permanent dentures, the need for denture adhesive is a thing of the past. Because the dental implants function like the natural roots, the permanent dentures will feel very much like your natural teeth did.

If you’d like to rid yourself of denture adhesive and have permanent dentures, call us at Winfield Dental Centre for a free consult to

dental implants and a dental implant bridge.

PREMIUM RUSH

I’m not sure how many spin classes this bunch had to endure before fi lming on this show started, but from the opening scene to the very end, this was one

long chase scene done on bicycles by some very in-shape people.

I thought about this while eating my buttered popcorn, but only fl eet-ingly and with hardly any sense of remorse.

The plot was a lit-

tle thin—a mysterious package needs to be sent immediately to a loca-tion in China Town. Pre-mium Rush is the com-pany chosen to deliver this important envel-ope which must get to its destination at an ap-pointed time.

Entrusted with this package is dare-devil bi-cycle courier, Wilee, played by Joseph Gor-don-Levitt, a no brakes, no gears kind of speed freak who knows hardly any fear.

The only fear he does have is the thought of what he might become if he had a regular job: “a hopeless ivory tow-er douch bag” (his words, not mine).

He should know fear as one of 13,000 bicycle couriers in New York, a city that has 22,000 taxi cabs, and Bobby Mon-day—a crooked cop played by Michael Shan-non who’s out to get him.

We know he’s crooked right from the start, he has the look of a shifty used car salesman, (I’m talking about the Toron-to used car guys, not the great local used car guys, who we all know and love).

So, with nothing to lose and much money to gain, our crooked cop and everyone else it seems, tries to intercept the bicycle courier by any means necessary, and so the chase in on.

This is a good show,

everyone will like it. The cinematography is bril-liant, the acting is OK, the storyline thin though not bad, but the spe-cial effects of the chase scenes are worth the price of admission alone.

Apart from Gordon-Levitt and Dania Ra-mirez who plays Vanessa, there are no big names in this one. It’s directed by David Keopp, who also did the screenplay, but that only makes it more believable.

Sure you’re going to feel out of shape and sedentary, but just get the large buttered pop-corn and a drink and sit back and enjoy the ride.

I give Premium Rush three reels.

The British Co-lumbia govern-ment occasion-

ally fi nds funding to put toward targeted areas of skills development. That occurred this year, and Okanagan College re-ceived approximately $550,000.

The funds are intend-ed to create addition-al capacity and new op-portunities for people to gain skills and knowl-edge that will help them fi nd, bolster or change careers.

Although some mon-ey went into new intakes for some of our exist-ing programs (electrician program in Revelstoke) other money went into some new certifi cates of-fered by our Continuing Studies department.

One program which was new to Kelow-na and was offered over the summer in partner-ship with Capilano Uni-versity, was an Anima-tion Fundamentals cer-tifi cate.

This program pro-vides students with an introduction into the fi eld of animation. It’s one of those programs which I would call a sampler. Students took courses in drawing, an-imation design, anima-tion principles and tim-ing, and also digital an-imation where most of the industry is today.

It allows someone in-terested in the animation fi eld an opportunity to see if this is really what they want to do before they invest in a much longer, more expensive program.

Animators tend to fi nd employment in the movie and television in-dustry, or working for advertising agencies, web design fi rms, and video game companies.

Another new program in the works, courtesy of the additional funding, is a certifi cate in Safe-ty and Supervision in Oil and Gas. A stellar safe-ty record is important to many companies trying to attract workers into the oil and gas fi eld. To meet the needs of these companies the college hopes to launch this pro-gram soon. I suspect it will be of interest to the many locals who live in the valley but work out-of-province or up north,

or those looking to fi nd a job in this high growth area.

Mining in the last 10 years has become a ma-jor industry in Canada. Today there are well over

800 mining operations in Canada which em-ploy more than 363,000 Canadians. Mining is expected to have high growth rates at the same time Canada faces skilled labour shortages. This is at a time when it is diffi -cult to get Canadians in-terested in working in the mining industry.

Most people remem-ber mining accidents—which doesn’t bode well for this industry—yet the safety standards in Canadian mines are the best in the world. On top of all that, not all mining work means you’re ac-tually in the mine. With

the use of technology such as robotics, com-puters and state-of-the-art equipment, a min-er can be at a desk above ground while operating equipment hundreds of meters below. Besides a high demand for skilled workers in this industry, there are also hundreds of jobs related to mining; everything from working in the fi eld of exploration to a desk job.

In response to in-dustry growth the col-lege is developing and planning to offer a cer-tifi cate in mining ba-sic safety to help par-ticipants better under-

stand what working in a mine really entails and what safety measures are in place. It will hopeful-ly make participants re-alize that working in the mining industry isn’t like the coals mines of Cape

Breton Island two centu-ries ago.

All of these new pro-grams will be offered through Continuing Studies at Okanagan College. If you are inter-ested in these programs,

watch our web site, www.okangancollege.bc.ca or contact the offi ce in your area for more details.

You can put this summer in your pocket and call

it a good old Okanagan hottie.

After a relatively wet spring, near fl ooding of the creeks and the lake exceeding full pool, we settled into a stretch of great weather, the kind of weather that makes us famous across the coun-try.

Even though we are now hanging on to the last vestiges of the sum-mer heat, the indica-tors of fall are upon us. A bad thing? Not even close! This is about to be my favourite time of the year.

With the evenings now cooling off, the aro-ma in the air is signal-ling the start of fall. Our lawns will also now start

to freshen up. The roses are getting

ready for a fi nal “fl ush” into fall while garden-ers are getting the bug to again get out and dig.

It’s a bit early to talk about fall colour in the gardens, but that’s com-ing too.

This time of year brings back memories of a decade of my life when

I was just beginning to cut my adult teeth.

Even though there were some things in the 1970s I would like to forget, such as disco mu-sic and car designs, that was the decade of my 20s. Even though I was working very long days in the spring running our family’s garden centre, the fall was a time when I could break away and do some of the activi-ties available to us here in paradise.

Fly fi shing was a big one for me. There isn’t a lake here in the Cen-tral Okanagan where I haven’t wet a line at some point.

I did a bit of grouse hunting as well. I re-member getting up a couple of times be-fore the sun came up to

crouch with my father-in-law on the banks of Mission Creek waiting for the moment we could bag a couple of ducks as the sun came up.

This was a lot of work for a couple of ducks but being in my 20s I just had to get it out of my system. I fi nd it hard to fathom those duck hunt-ing expeditions took place on the now Mis-sion Creek Greenway adjacent to the driv-ing range on Benvoulin Road.

I much preferred, though, to get up in the mountains and catch fi sh or shoot grouse, al-though that eventual-ly became secondary to simply enjoying the di-versity of native plants growing in their natural environment.

I know those fall ac-tivities played an impor-tant role in developing my passion for garden plants.

Once I discovered there was a native coun-terpart to just about ev-erything we sold at the garden centre, my walks through the bush took twice as long as they normally would. Na-tive honeysuckle, colum-bine, mock orange, ju-niper, dogwood, orchids and penstemon are just a few plants that come to mind.

So don’t be sorry our summer is coming to an end just be thankful the best season of the year is about to come upon us.

Tune in to The Don Burnett Garden Show on AM 1150 Saturday mor-nings at 8 a.m.

Close of summer is a great time for gardeners

From Ground UpDon Burnett

Grouping plants by water needs is one of the

seven principles of xeri-scape.

Now that the weath-er is cooling off and day length is rapidly de-creasing, this is an excel-lent time to evaluate how each plant in the gar-den has fared during the

long, hot summer. I suggest evaluat-

ing each garden bed or watering zone individ-ually and making notes and taking photos to help plan for changes in the fall or next spring.

Did any plants need more water than the rest of the plants in that watering zone?

Did any plants fre-quently wilt? Do any plants have crispy leaves?

These are both stress signals that the plants needed more water.

If most of the bed was fi ne and only a few plants showed stress these could be moved to an area with plants that get more water.

Often these same plants will be fi ne in a low water situation if they get more shade—particularly from the hot midday and afternoon sun.

Conversely, if plants in a partly shaded bed are leaning toward the sun, they need to be moved to a sunnier location.

Over-watering can also stress plants. Too much water can lead to tall weak growth that needs to be staked. Plants will not look their best.

Staking is a mainten-

ance task that can often be avoided by reducing the irrigation on a plant so it will have shorter, sturdy, compact growth.

Another indication of over-watering can be an aphid attack on new growth and buds. Aphids like juicy new growth and are attracted to plants that are stressed by over-watering.

Next year watering could be cut back for the whole garden bed unless it is just a few plants that

need less. In that case they could be moved to a drier location.

My own garden is in a constant state of experi-mentation to see what does well in sandy soil and with tree root com-petition so there are al-ways changes to be made.

If a plant is not doing well and it is something I’m not really attached to, I may plan to give it away to someone who has a more suitable place for the plant.

Another aspect of watering to evaluate right now is the ease of watering. Are there areas that need watering but are hard to water effect-ively because they are an odd shape?

Are there areas that are impossible to water without watering hard surfaces such as a drive-way or sidewalk, thus wasting water?

Plans could be made to change each of these areas to extremely drought tolerant plant-ings which would need little or no water once plants are established.

You can learn about all of the Principles of Xeri-scape in my two-night class beginning Sept. 24. Details and registration information are on the OXA website.

Gwen Steele is execu-tive director of the non-profi t Okanagan Xeri-scape Association.

On Sept. 8, when Ke-lowna Community Re-sources open the Parkin-son Recreation Centre doors to welcome every-one to its annual Oka-nagan Volunteer Op-portunities Fair, a bank of computers will be ready in the Telus Inter-net Café.

KCR has set up a web-based resource

where organizations can post job openings for prospective volunteers to peruse and set up a pro-fi le, advertising their skills and attributes.

The more volunteers logged into the data-base with profi les, the

more opportunities it attracts and the more matches can be made.

The Okanagan Vol-unteer Opportunities Fair runs Sept. 8 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.

To create your own volunteer profi le go to the web site kcr.ca and click on Volunteer Op-portunities Search.

Highway 97 night time traffic delays & road closures

Single-lane alternating traffic is in effect north of Winfield on the existing Highway 97 between the hours of 7:00 PM and 6:00 AM from August 20 to September 8. During the same time periods there may also be complete closures of the highway for no more than 15 minutes at a time while drainage culverts are being installed across the existing highway. Also, some brief daytime closures during September will be required for blasting and moving girders.

School is back in session and motorists are reminded to respect school zone speed limits

and watch for students crossing the roads.

Students walking, cycling and skateboarding to school are reminded to cross the road only at intersections and designated crosswalks. Pedestrians must make eye contact with drivers before stepping off the curb, even in marked crosswalks, as drivers may be distracted or may not see them due to darkness or bad weather. Pedestrians need to wear bright, reflective clothing or other reflective devices; such as reflective arm bands, which wrap around the wrist, arm or leg, and used whenever you are walking at night.
