Soldiers invade region for training exercise

BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff

Soldiers will be massing in the hills of the West Kootenay over the next two weeks as Canadian reserves and American National Guard members take up arms in search of Kootenay Castor beginning this Friday.

Around 150 reserve soldiers, primarily from the Canaddian Army’s 39 Combat Engineer Regiment, and the 204th Engineer Battalion of the Washington Army National Guard are expected to attend Exercise Kootenay Castor here from Friday to Aug. 24.

The West Kootenay region was deemed “ideal” for hosting the engineer training due to its varied terrain, lakes, and rivers, said Major Andy McQuilkin, exercise director and officer commanding the Trailbased 44 Engineer Squadron (44 ES), in a press release.

“To maintain our readiness for a broad spectrum of tasks, our focus will be on rafting, ferry operations, and assault boating above the Hugh Keenleyside Dam and on the Columbia River from Castlegar south

Cuts hit emergency preparedness program

BY TIMOTHY SCHAFER Times Staff

A federal government cut to the Joint Emergency Preparedness Program could spell disaster to the outfitting of the local emergency preparedness centre.

When the federal government announced its intention to cut funding in its omnibus budget bill on a 30-year funding program designed to help cover the costs of emergency preparedness, Kootenay Boundary Fire Rescue (KBFR) department flinched.

The department has used Joint Emergency Preparedness Program (JEPP) funding every year since it set up the first emergency operations centre in the district seven years ago.

According to KBFR regional chief Terry Martin, the majority of the equipment in the emergency operations centre (EOC) was paid for by JEPP funds.

“We would have been short that

The region’s emergency operations centre in the Greater Trail Community Centre will be affected by recent cuts to a federal program, said Kootenay Boundary Fire Rescue regional chief Terry Martin. money in setting up the centre and would have had to take money away from something else,” he said. “I think the cut will (hurt).”

The “brains” of any major disaster situation, the EOC contains operations, logistics, planning, finance

and administration in its rooms in the lower level of the Greater Trail Community Centre.

The centre features full inter connectivity for fire, police, ambulance and public works, four stations with full radio capabilities for all jurisdic-

tions in this regional district, a backup generator and a meeting room for government decision makers.

“There is a lot of equipment here, but we plan for the worst case scenario,” said Martin.

KBRF deputy chief Dan Derby said the department has received JEPP grants for seven years and has been the major factor the region possesses such a well-equipped emergency centre.

This year the final installment of the grant money ($10,000 to KBFR) will be used for an emergency plan review and an exercise.

“What this really comes down to now is that some of the things that are nice to do—emergency plan review—will likely be extended out to the future because the time, resources and the manpower won’t be there,” said Derby.

“And identification of future projects … will be hard to fund without that funding.”

This is a natural lead of the top of a sequence.

The play: South has five tricks and needs to knock out two aces to make. This is not a problem because East has no spades left to return to his partner. He will make eleven tricks. This seemed very unlikely because West should have the two aces for his bid.

REGIONAL SAR teams not affected FROM PAGE 1 Even without the JEPP program there is money within the regional district’s budget for emergency operations, but KBFR needed JEPP funding to support and fully outfit the EOC. As part of JEPP, the federal government has picked up as much as 75 per cent of the cost of eligible projects, like Trail’s EOC. Only two major incidents have been hosted at the EOC since it opened: a wildfire near Toxco two years ago; and an actual fire at Toxco three years ago where the building

“blew up.”

The region’s two search and rescue teams, however, will not be affected by the program cut. The South Columbia Search and Rescue team, like Rossland Search and Rescue, draw funds from the regional district, Columbia Basin Trust, provincial gaming grants, donations and fundraising.

Through Public Safety Canada, JEPP enabled support of projects with the provinces and territories to create a uniform level of emergency preparedness and response across Canada.

About $2.3 million has been earmarked for the program’s final year which ends April 1, 2013.

The funds are allocated to the provinces which, in turn, sort through the various proposals submitted by municipalities.

A 2008 evaluation of the program found a need for the federal government to contribute to emergency management at the provincial and federal levels, and the absence of JEPP would “significantly and negatively” impact emergency preparedness at the community level.

Plenty of challenges await FROM PAGE 1 to Trail, and on demolitions at the Stoney Creek Range.”

Soldiers and leaders at all levels will certainly be challenged, noted Master Warrant Officer Sharman Thomas, 44 ES Sergeant-Major, and one of the exercise planners.

“Especially during a day-long military skills competition that will include rafting on the mighty Columbia River, shooting at the Casino Rifle Range along with individual and group tasks in the Fort Sheppard area,” he said.

But safety and environmental protection are inherent in the exercise’s planning and implementation, including an environmental impact assessment, said Thomas.

He noted that members of several

other units will provide medical, signals and logistical support to enable the “sappers,” or combat engineers, to accomplish the physically and technically demanding tasks.

Thomas said the majority of the military personnel will be living at the Trail armoury compound and moving from there to their daily tasks daily over the two weeks.

Convoy and traffic movements will be coordinated with the RCMP, and public service announcements will be issued when warranted to advise people about any temporary delays.

Exercise Kootenay Castor is the third international reserve combat engineer exercise in the area, with the Kootenay Castles held in 1992 and 2002.

Body recovered in gorge

BY KARL YU Grand Forks Gazette

According to Christina Lake Fire Chief Ken Gresley-Jones, a body has been recovered at Cascade Gorge.

Later, RCMP confirmed it was the body of a missing 50-year-old Scottish male, who was part of a tragic tubing accident that took place on July 28, but there is currently no other information.

The July 28 tubing accident occurred when three people on a tubing trip down the Kettle River were swept over Cascade Falls.

The bodies of Christina Lake

residents Ronald and Jacqueline Legare were recovered shortly after the accident but the body of the Scottish male was not, despite the efforts of search crews.

Grand Forks RCMP Staff Sgt. Jim Harrison told The Gazette last week that it was assumed that the body could be trapped in the falls.

“Our experience in the past has been that the bodies resurface after a couple of days or anywhere up to a week. We’ll be maintaining a vigil on the falls to see if, in fact, that does occur and we’ll recover the body,” Harrison said at the time.

Car plunges over cliff near Nelson

BY BOB HALL Nelson Star

A 38-year-old Castlegar man escaped with only minor injuries after his pick-up truck plunged off a cliff just west of Nelson.

Just after 3 p.m. on Sunday, Nelson RCMP received a call about a single-vehicle accident on Highway 3A about a half kilometre west of the park-and-ride at the city’s boundary.

The 2008 Ford Ranger was travelling

towards Nelson when the driver apparently fell asleep behind the wheel. The truck flipped down an estimated 50 metres of vertical rocky terrain and came to rest on a flat area of the Canadian Pacific Railway property.

“The driver is very fortunate to be alive,” said Nelson RCMP staff sergeant Dan Seibel.

“This is an excellent example that seat belts save lives. If the

driver had not been wearing his seat belt and was thrown from the vehicle, as it travelled down the cliff, he would likely have not survived this terrible incident.”

The truck was not blocking the railway tracks, but was difficult for rescue officials to access.

It came rest near an area known as Shirley Beach and Nelson Search and Rescue members were brought

in by boat while Nelson Fire and Rescue crews scrambled down the rocky bank to help free the man from the truck.

Once the man was removed from the truck he was put on a member of the public’s pontoon boat that had also come ashore. The man was transported to the city wharf then brought to Kootenay Lake Hospital where he was treated for minor injuries.

Man drowns in Kootenay River

BY BOB HALL Nelson Star

Witnesses at the scene of a Saturday afternoon drowning on Kootenay River told officials they lost sight of the 64-year-old male victim and the next time saw him he was under deep water.

Nelson RCMP received a call at approximately 4:22 p.m.

Saturday to report a possible drowning at lower Marsden Road, just west of the Taghum Bridge. Several people had gathered on a rock outcropping known as Coyote Point to cool off in the slow moving river.

Witnesses told police that the man dove into the river for a swim, surfaced, and then swam

out of sight. When other members of his party noticed he did not come to shore they conducted an extensive search of the area. They found him under about 3.6 metres of water in an area not accessible.

RCMP and the BC Ambulance Service were first on the scene, but without aid of a boat were unable to get to the man.

Listening to the scanner at the Beasley Fire Hall, members of that volunteer crew dispatched their new Sea Doos and arrived on scene shortly after police.

“I just grabbed our reach pole and managed to hook his shorts and pull him right to the surface,” said Beasley fire chief Al Craft.

“Shore was only a few feet away so the ambulance were all set up to take him.”

CPR was started on the rocks and once the Nelson Search and Rescue boat arrived the victim was transferred and brought to Nelson via the river where paramedics continued to attempt resuscitation.

The boat was met at the city wharf by ambulance and the victim was transported to Kootenay Lake Hospital. Efforts to revive the man were ultimately unsuccessful.

The BC Corners Service is now taking the lead on the investigation into the death.

The name of victim has not been released at this point.

PROVINCIAL Liberal party’s popularity continues to slide: poll THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - The B.C. Liberal party has dropped in popularity despite Premier Christy Clark’s seemingly tough stance on the Northern Gateway pipeline project.

An online Angus Reid poll conducted last week suggests the Liberals have slipped one point in popularity since last month.

The NDP has gained four points in that time, with leader Adrian Dix seen by the surveyed sample as the preferred head of government in the next provincial election.

Of the 804 survey participants,

49 per cent said they would vote NDP, 22 per cent said they will vote Liberal, and 19 per cent said they would cast their vote for the B.C. Conservatives if a provincial election were held tomorrow.

Clark, who finally took a stand on the controversial Enbridge (TSX:ENB) pipeline last week after months of indecision, says she is not concerned about the survey results, which have a margin of error of plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.

She says the only poll that matters is the one on election day next May.

Clark rings up big credit card bill THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - Premier Christy Clark’s office tallied up a credit card bill pushing half a million dollars last year, but her office says there are good reasons behind the tab.

The province’s final books for the last fiscal year show the B.C. premier’s office put $475,015 on credit cards, more than twice of Clark’s predecessor Gordon Campbell.

But Clark’s spokesman Mike Morton

says Clark conducted two trips to Asia and hosted two important premier’s conferences.

The credit card bills include meals in some of Vancouver and Victoria’s most posh restaurants.

Northern residents asked to conserve water THE CANADIAN PRESS

FORT ST. JOHN, B.C. - Residents across northeastern B.C. are being urged to conserve water as drought conditions turn some area rivers in little more than mud flats.

Rivers across most of the Peace Region are edging toward historic lows and officials

warn of possible water shortages, affecting people, agriculture, industry and fish stocks.

A low stream flow advisory has been issued for the eastern Peace, affecting the Kiskatinaw, Moberly, Beatton and Fontas rivers in the Liard River drainage area,

The drought is blamed on a belowaverage snowpack, and dry, warm weather over the spring and early summer.

The B.C. Oil and Gas Commission has responded to the parched conditions by

ordering all oil and gas operators in the northeast to suspend short-term water withdrawals from area rivers.

The commission says, if necessary, it will help companies identify options for alternative water supplies until river levels are restored.

U.S. drought will spike food prices in 2013: economist THE CANADIAN PRESS

THE CANADIAN PRESS/MICHELLE SIU

NDP MP Olivia Chow takes part in the Grand Parade at the Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival in Toronto on Saturday.

Anti-union trend forces merger THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - It took a global war to galvanize Canada’s workers to begin organizing themselves into unions in the 1940’s.

Nearly 70 years later, experts say attacks of another sort have left those unions fighting for their very survival.

The continuing rise of multinational corporations, growing public apathy toward the labour movement and unprecedented interference from the federal government have forced leaders in the country’s labour movement to consider new strategies in order to stay afloat during turbulent times.

Two of Canada’s largest private sector unions formally acted on a long-simmering plan last week to merge the two organizations.

In outlining a plan to officially join forces by 2013, the Canadian Auto Workers Union and the Communications, Energy and Paperworkers Union of Canada said the merger was necessary to combat what they described as growing hostility from the country’s corporate and political ranks.

If anything, veteran union watchers believe the CAW and CEP understated the gravity of the situation.

Former CAW president Buzz Hargrove said he has never witnessed such widespread anti-union sentiment in his many decades of involvement with organized labour.

That antipathy has been most clearly demonstrated by the Federal government, he said, citing pieces of legislation forced through Parliament that effectively ended labour disputes at Air Canada, Canadian Pacific Railway and Canada

Post on employer-friendly terms.

Such aggressive political action, he said, is designed to create a climate similar to the one that has taken shape in the United States where unionized workers now make up less than seven per cent of the private sector workforce. “I think the business community watched what’s happened in the U.S. and said, ‘We haven’t been aggressive enough in Canada. We can do the same thing with the support of the governments,�’ Hargrove said in a telephone interview. “And they got the support of government, and they’re moving ahead with that.�

Hargrove said the past five years have seen an unprecedented spike in labour disputes centred around employers wanting to claw back salaries or benefits.

Some of the more bruising disputes have hobbled industry and left workers out of a job for months, he said.

A strike by employees of mining giant Vale brought local commerce to its knees in the northern city of Sudbury, Ont., for nearly a year between the summers of 2009 and 2010, while a lockout initiated by U.S. Steel kept workers at home for more than 12 months.

Unions claimed defeat in both cases, saying members were losing out on lucrative salary structures or future pension arrangements.

Hargrove said the federal government’s welldocumented anti-union stance has emboldened companies to take a hard line against unions.

TORONTO - Food prices may grow by as much as four per cent next year, economists predict, as drought conditions in the U.S. are expected to inflate the cost of everything from pork to cereal.

RBC economist Paul Ferley says the increases will be similar to those seen in 2011, when demand from emerging economies like China and India pushed food prices higher. “Growth there is slowing, so we would have expected a bit of moderation in commodity and food prices, but because of the drought it looks like we’ll be getting another wave,� said

THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - The federal government added pressure Friday to a politically-charged debate over the proposed Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline project across British Columbia and Alberta as it announced an environmental assessment of the project must be completed in the next 16 months.

In a letter to the joint review panel examining the $6-billion proposal, Environment Minister Peter Kent and National Energy Board chairman Gaetan Caron set a deadline of Dec. 31, 2013 for the report.

The new deadline is required to comply with the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act and the

Some types of grain have been affected by the drought, which may inflate the price of baked goods and pasta, said Mohr.

Fructose and corn syrup, which are used in many kinds of processed food, may become more pricey, as well as items made from canola like margarine and dressing.

He predicts that food costs will go up by 2.5 to 3.5 per cent in 2012 and three to four per cent in 2013.

Extreme drought conditions in several U.S. Midwest states are causing corn and soybean crops to wither, and analysts say the effects will ripple through the food chain.

Because corn is used to feed livestock in the U.S., the rising cost of beef and pork will be most noticeable on grocery store shelves, said Patricia Mohr, a commodity markets specialist at Scotiabank (TSX:BNS). Poultry may also be affected. “This will trickle through the cost of pro-

Pipeline posturing doesn’t help British Columbia

T

he B.C. Liberal government is taking its new hard-line approach to federal environmental hearings on the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline proposal in September.

Environment Minister Terry Lake has filed the B.C. government’s notice to cross-examine Enbridge, one of the world’s biggest pipeline operators.

Lake outlined the “tough questions” B.C. representatives will ask about spill response capacity on land and sea, tanker escort tugboats, pipe wall thickness, and Enbridge’s sluggish response to a pipeline rupture in Michigan.

That’s all fine, and to be expected after Premier Christy Clark’s high-profile confrontation with Alberta Premier Alison Redford going into the recent premiers’ meeting in Halifax.

Clark’s demands for “world-leading” safety and spill response, as well as meeting the constitutional obligation to consult and

accommodate aboriginal groups along the route, are mostly a statement of the obvious.

Her call for a “fair share” of proceeds from exported oil to reflect B.C.’s risk has been assaulted from all sides.

Pipeline opponents seized on Clark’s suggestion that a major oil spill might be tolerable if there was enough money in it for B.C. NDP leader Adrian Dix picked up the theme as he conducted his own belated tour of the proposed route to reiterate his opposition.

There had been earlier hints from Alberta that B.C. might need further rewards for the risk.

But when Clark made the “fair share” demand public, Redford was moved to channel Margaret Thatcher, declaring: “The Premier of Alberta is not going to blink on royalties.”

The lady’s not for blinking, but neither is B.C.’s Iron Snowbird, as Preston

TOM

FLETCHER B.C. Views Manning dubbed Clark this spring.

All this political theatre doesn’t amount to much. I’ll stand by my January prediction that the Enbridge proposal is unlikely to proceed, mainly due to the tangled state of aboriginal claim.

Wealthy U.S. foundations that view the B.C. North Coast as their 500year eco-experiment will be happy to help fund a decade of legal challenges, while continuing the media-spinning and protest support they are doing now.

Even if some way can

be found to levy a B.C. tax on revenues from the Northern Gateway pipeline, it’s no solution.

For one thing, it would confer an advantage to the Trans-Mountain pipeline that has been shipping Alberta oil to Burnaby and the U.S. for more than 60 years.

The competing expansion proposal by TransMountain’s current owner, Kinder Morgan, shows the inconsistency of opposition to pipelines.

Does anyone really believe that a new pipeline built to the highest standards ever would be too dangerous, while a 60-year-old pipeline is acceptable?

Protesters have an easy target in Kinder Morgan.

With a tenfold increase to 25 tankers a month proposed to sail under the Lions Gate Bridge, a heavy oil spill from Second Narrows to Stanley Park would be catastrophic to Vancouver’s environment and economy.

Tankers have made that trip safely nearly 100 years, but the congested modern shipping lane offers more threat of collision, and clearing Burrard Inlet for near-daily tanker transits would disrupt the rest of B.C.’s shipping trade.

An Angus Reid poll last week showed as many as half of respondents remain open-minded about the costs and benefits of new oil pipelines across B.C. Unlike B.C. politicians, they seem interested in learning more before making up their minds.

Dix and the NDP ran to the front of the antipipeline parade early, as they did with the carbon tax and other issues.

Clark began the Northern Gateway discussion with a principled position to wait for the result of the federal review, but that’s apparently out the window with an election looming.

LETTERS & OPINION LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Social programs not to blame for deficit When reading some of the Troy Media pundits in the Trail Times, it seems the national deficit is caused purely by overly generous social programs.

I suppose weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re assumed to have forgotten Enron and Lehman Bros. and the resulting financial catastrophe in 2008.

And never mind the strange coincidence of timing, with that deficit only becoming a major problem after 2008.

It all comes across to me as a mean - spirited attack on the most vulnerable in our society.

Those that are the first to suffer the consequences of the austerity measures are supposed to fix the mess. And, of course, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also supposed to be completely in the dark about the reported $ 220 billion of taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money spent by the Feds on bailouts - $114 billion to the banks alone - and to corporations, along with generous tax cuts, all, it seems, without any strings attached.

Or if any, extremely flexible ones.

Both Flaherty and Harper have been extremely tightlipped about the extent of the total and to where it all went.

But, as weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned, transparency is not their greatest virtue.

It was left for others, who, after diligent digging, provided us with the figures.

But for now, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not ask

what and who caused the deficit, but instead try to see the bailouts in a positive light, as a purely economic stimulus.

But the fly in the ointment may well prove to be those flexible strings, consider the following: GM announced that it is to invest $ 850 million in a research and development facility in Ont. - apparently making Harper jump over the moon. But that only after receiving $10.5 billion of taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; money in 2009. (See the Trail Times, July 26) Are we now to forget its earlier announcement that it is closing their plant, also in Ontario thereby putting 2000 workers on the street? (As president of the Canadian Labor Congress, what is your take on that Mr. Georgetti?)

All in all, it seems a heck of a deal, and no need to point out for whom.

And as for the bailout money to the banks, after the multi - million dollar salaries and bonuses for the chief executives have been paid; we can only hope that the remainder will be invested in industry to stimulate the economy.

However, the question is: Can they resist the temptation of getting a return of somewhere up to 19.9 per cent by peddling more credit cards rather than perhaps 3 per cent from loans to industry?

Questions that deserve answers before we are to accept the theory that social programs are to blame for the deficit.

Instead, we might well ask, why keep a system that caused vast inequality, with politicians that were already rich when entering office or became rich by working for the rich?

It has been suggested that socialism reinvent itself. I personally donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think its time has come as yet. As George Monbiot - a well-known British journalist - so succinctly put it; â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have our bread, now we are wandering, in spellbound reverie, among the circuses.â&#x20AC;?

Pondering the above, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but think of a very different politician from the past; Mel Hurtig, who, as leader of the Canadian National Party ran for parliament in 1993 and already at that time proposed major changes to the Canadian banking system. Changes obviously too rich for the palate of those that govern behind the scenes. How else to explain his abrupt departure from politics shortly after.

And yes, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m well aware that we in Canada are not alone in suffering austerity measures. Many, in countries in the European Union are facing similar hardships.

But remember, they too, have banks.

Peter van Iersel Fruitvale

Anti-pipeline caravan hypocritical Local Chardonnay sippers and Birkenstock trippers would have us believe that the end of days are near if the Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline is built.

Yet, these same eco-warriors get on jet planes and drive their 4x4 SUVs or other gasoline powered vehicles daily up, down and around our mountainous terrain. From where do they think the gasoline for their vehicles comes? Must be a magical mystery drop and not hauled in by diesel powered tanker trucks. Avert your eyes!

Recently a caravan travelled from the Kootenays to Kitimat to protest the proposed Enbridge pipe-

line. In my mindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye, I saw a long caravan of Flintstone mobiles â&#x20AC;&#x153;yabbadabbadoo-ingâ&#x20AC;? their way to Kitimat using just foot power, never stopping to eat at restaurants whose supplies were brought there by diesel truck.

True to form, they would bring all locally grown produce with them in their vehicles.

Ya, sure.

Most likely, however, they travelled by gasoline powered air conditioned vehicles, stopping to gas up and eat their meals in restaurants, staying at local air-conditioned motels along the way.

They shop in stores that sell goods delivered by diesel trucks but somehow are against getting bitumen to

refineries, whether in the US or China. Those goods they buy come from China; try finding made in the Kootenays reliable goods. A few may be there but not in any sustainable quantity.

For them, the goods would have to be made in a cooperative, at taxpayersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; expense. They really do believe in this circle approach. It works for communist China they explain.

Sometimes water mains break, cars and airplanes crash. Do we stop building water pipelines? Do we stop driving cars or taking airplanes? Of course not.

Instead, why not insist on better safety measures for pipeline building, monitoring,

spill prevention and effective remedial measures and tough sanctions for spills?

So why do ecowarriors want to scrap a pipeline or cripple the Canadian oil and gas industry? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just another cause for them even if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s based on their own hypocrisy.

Their motto is â&#x20AC;&#x153;just say noâ&#x20AC;?. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easier and requires no thinking; just fear-mongering and votes.

If our local NDP representatives are really concerned about environmental issues, why arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t they demanding remedies to the naturally occurring high concentrations of toxic radon gas in their own back yards?

CHAVELA VARGAS

Legendary Mexican singer defied sterotypes THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MEXICO CITY - Chavela Vargas, who defied gender stereotypes to become one of the most legendary singers in Mexico, died Sunday at age 93.

Her friend and biographer Maria Cortina said Vargas died at a hospital in the city of Cuernavaca, where she had been admitted for heart and respiratory problems.

Vargas rose to fame flouting the Roman Catholic country’s preconceptions of what it meant to be a female singer: singing lusty “ranchera” songs while wearing men’s clothes, carrying a pistol, drinking heavily and smoking cigars.

Though she refused to change the pronouns in love songs about women as some audiences expected, many of her versions of passionate Mexican folk songs are considered definitive.

Born in San Joaquin de Flores, Costa Rica, on April 17, 1919, Vargas immigrated to Mexico at age 14. She sang in the streets as a teenager, then ventured into a professional singing career well in her 30s.

“I was never afraid of anything because I never hurt anyone,” Vargas told the audience at a Mexico City tribute concert in June 2011.

Vargas recorded 80 albums, becoming a major figure in Mexico City’s artistic explosion of the mid-20th century. She was a friend and a frequent house guest of the Mexican painters Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera and was close to the Spanish writer Federico Garcia Lorca.

Along the way she was honoured as a “distinguished citizen” of Mexico City and was given Spain’s Grand Cross of Isabella the Catholic. In 2007 the Latin Recording Academy gave her its lifetime achievement award.

Though her liaisons with women were known throughout her life, Vargas did not publicly come out as a lesbian until publishing her autobiography “Y si quieres saber de mi pasado” (“If You Want to Know About My Past) at age 81.

A giant rainbow flag is carried down Robson Street during the Vancouver Pride Parade in Vancouver on Sunday. Organizers expected as many as 600,000 people to take in the parade which is one of the largest in North America. Below; parade grand marshal Jenna Talackova, the first transgendered Miss Universe contestant, waves to the crowd.

GAY PRIDE PARADE

Miss Universe contestant rides wave of gratitude THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - Months after she took on the beauty pageant establishment, transgendered beauty queen Jenna Talackova helped lead Vancouver’s annual gay pride parade Sunday.

The seemingly at-timesbashful Talackova was one of the parade marshals and rode atop a silver coloured BMW waving a rainbow feather boa over her head.

It was a scorcher as the parade wound through Vancouver streets in near 30 degree weather.

Talackova gained international attention for fighting for the right to compete

in the Miss Universe Canada pageant after being kicked out because she was not born a woman.

Talackova has said she always felt like a woman and began taking hormone therapy at 14 years old, eventually having sexual reassignment surgery at age 19.

She accused the pageant of discriminating against her and pageant owner Donald Trump allowed her to compete.

She finished in the top 12 in the pageant and now said she considers herself an advocate for equal rights.

Earlier this summer pride parade organizers said they chose her as a grand marshal

because of her struggle for the rights of transgendered people.

Vancouver Canucks’ player Manny Malhotra also made good on his promise to be the first Vancouver Canuck to ever take part in the city’s decades old pride parade.

Malhotra was at the parade in association with the You Can Play project, an effort to bring acceptance of gay people into the world of athletics.

The Mississauga, Ontario native said he joined the effort because he believes people should not feel they cannot play sports based on their sexual orientation, religion or race.

Skydivers set new formation record THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

OTTAWA, Ill. - Falling at speeds of up to 220 mph, nearly 140 skydivers shattered the vertical skydiving world record Friday evening as they flew headsdown in a massive snowflake formation in northern Illinois.

Three judges representing the Federation Aeronautique Internationale, the international air sports agency, certified that 138 skydivers created the formation over Ottawa, about 80 miles southwest of Chicago. It took 15 attempts over three days for the team to break the previous record of 108 skydiv-

ers, which was set in 2009.

“I feel amazing,” Rook Nelson, an organizer and the owner of Skydive Chicago where the record was broken, said shortly after he made the jump.

“There was a lot of emotion and a lot of days where we should have got it. But we dug down deep and stuck at it.”

Following months of planning, the record breakers squeezed into six aircraft and launched themselves into the air at 18,500 feet. Flying at such a high altitude presents a risk of altitude sickness, so the skydivers and pilots used oxygen tanks aboard the planes.

Orioles fall at B.C.s

Svensson sizzles on final day

BY JIM BAILEY Times Sports Editor

The AM Ford Trail Orioles made a dramatic run at the playoffs at the B.C. Bid Group Senior Men’s Baseball championship in Prince George on the weekend, but in the end they simply ran out of gas.

The Orioles won a dramatic come-from-behind match against the Kelowna Jays 10-9 Sunday to lift them into the playoffs - only to fall in the elimination match against a tough Kamloops Sun Devil team 16-1.

“The frustrating thing is that we had a chance, and if we had more arms, I think we really had a chance to take a run at it, but the guys we had played well and we are pretty happy,” said player/manager Jim Maniago.

The O’s, along with four other teams, finished with identical 2-1 records, and eliminated last year’s champion the Victoria Merchants, 1-2, as well as powerhouse Burnaby Bulldogs, 1-2.

Runs for and against decided the top five teams, with the Nanaimo Coalminers earning the top seed by virtue of wins over Langley Blaze 8-0 and Kelowna 13-4, giving them a bye to Monday’s semifinal.

The Kamloops Sun Devils were second, Langley Blaze third and the Prince George Grays squeaked in at fourth, as both the O’s and the Grays allowed 13 runs over three games but the Grays scored 16 while the Orioles only crossed the plate 14 times to relegate the O’s as the final seed, and set up an elimination game against the Sun Devils.

“In the years since we’ve

The AM Ford Trail Orioles Connor Jones brings the heat in a warm-up game against the Seattle Studs earlier this month. The Orioles put on a good performance at the B.C. Men’s baseball championship on the weekend, going 2-1 in the round robin before being eliminated in the playoffs. gone to this system, I don’t know if that’s ever happened.

Everyone is so equal, everyone was beating everyone else,” said Maniago.

The Orioles opened the provincials Saturday with a 4-2 win over Nanaimo, before being shutout by Langley 7-0.

Connor and Kellen Jones were indeed at the tournament, and proved vital to the team’s success in its two victories.

Kellen went the distance, picking up the win against the

Coalminers, allowing two runs on seven hits and striking out seven. He also went 2-for-3 at the plate to help his cause, as did Garrett Kucher and Brady Glover.

“Kellen was unreal that game,” said Maniago.

“Nanaimo is a really good team and it wouldn’t surprise me if they end up winning.”

In the Orioles’ 10-9 win over the Jays, Connor made a great leaping catch in the top of the seventh inning to douse a Kelowna rally and preserve

the narrow victory.

With runners on first and third and two out, the Jays’ batter slashed a drive at Jones who dove and snagged the liner to end the threat.

The Jays had opened up a 3-0 advantage in the first inning but the Orioles responded with five runs of their own in the bottom half for a 5-3 lead.

Trail scored at least one run in the first five innings opening up an 8-3 advantage.

BRIDEWATER, N.S. – Adam Svensson of Surrey, carded a final-round competitive course record 7-under par 64 at Osprey Ridge Golf Club in Bridgewater, N.S. on Friday to capture the 2012 Canadian Junior Boys Championship.

Svensson, who won the B.C. junior championship at Birchbank in Trail last year, started the day tied for 11th, five shots off the lead, posted a bogey-free round that featured seven birdies, including consecutive birdies on No. 2, No. 3 and No. 4 to start the day and on No. 16 and No. 17 to close out the round en route to carding a four-day tally of 1-under par 283.

Rossland’s Tyler McKay shot a final round 79 on Sunday to go with a 74, 76, and 81 for a four-day total of 310, to finish tied for 72nd at the Canadian Championship, Svensson, a member of Team Canada’s Development Squad, the 2010 Canadian Juvenile Boys Champion, bested teammate and 2011 Canadian Junior and Canadian Juvenile champion Kevin Kwon of Pitt Meadows and Luke Moser of Waterloo, Ont. by two strokes, as the pair finished T2 at 1-over par 285.

“It feels amazing,” said Svensson, who has also captured the B.C. Amateur Championship, the B.C. Junior Boys Championship and the Callaway Junior World Golf Championship during the course of a standout junior golf career.

“I’ve tried to win this tournament for four years now. I’ve been close, but finally it came. The win definitely gives me confidence going forward in my golf career.”

Svensson will compete next week in the 2012 Canadian Men’s Amateur Championship which will be conducted Aug. 7–10 at Camelot Golf and Country Club in Cumberland, Ont. and Club de golf Outaouais in Rockland, Ont. Mark Valliere of Courtenay, B.C. finished fourth at 2-over par 286, while Matthew Scobie of Ajax, Ont. rounded out the top-5 at 3-over par 287.

Vancouver’s Trevor Yu also carded a competitive course record 7-under par 64 on Friday, and went on to capture the 2012 Canadian Juvenile Boys Championship in a two-hole playoff over Patrick Murphy of Crossfield, Alta.

Yu and Murphy both finished with a 72-hole tally of 5-over par 289 before Yu bested Murphy on the second playoff hole, No. 1, to claim the title.

“I was feeling confident with all the long clubs today. I was throwing darts out there,” said Yu. “I was fortunate enough to make a couple of putts.

My driver went really well and I hit almost every fairway when I took it out of the bag. It was sweet to get the 64 and the competitive course record, and I had fun.”

Calgary’s Matt Williams finished third in the Juvenile Boys division at 6-over par 290.

LONDON - Christine Sinclair’s hat trick wasn’t enough.

Alex Morgan scored in extra time as the United States beat Canada 4-3 in a women’s soccer semifinal at the London Olympics.

Sinclair scored goals in the 22nd, 67th and 73rd minutes, but each time the Americans battled back.

Megan Rapinoe scored twice for the Americans before star forward Abby Wambach tied the game 3-3 on a penalty in the 80th minute.

Just before the penalty, the Americans were awarded a controversial free kick just outside the Canadian area when goalkeeper Erin MacLeod was charged for holding on to the ball for too long.

Canada’s Marie-Eve Nault was called for handball on the ensuing free kick, resulting in Wambach’s penalty.

Wambach had a chance to put it away late in extra time but her header went off the bar.

It’s the second Olympics in a row that these rivals have gone to extra time. The U.S beat Canada 2-1 in the quarter-finals of the 2008 Beijing Games.

The U.S. faces Japan for the gold medal on Thursday, while Canada plays France for bronze.

Canada hasn’t beaten the U.S. since 2001.

But the Jays rebounded with six runs in the top of the fourth inning to take a 9-8 lead.

Trail tied the game in the bottom half of four off reliever Mike Monster who owned Trail earlier in the year, and Jim Maniago drove in the winning run in the fifth.

Kellen relieved starter Kyle Paulson in the fifth inning, shutting the Jays offence down with three innings of no-hit ball for the win, his second of the tournament.

Connor also went 2-for-2, cranking out two doubles and knocking in two runs while Maniago was 3-for-4 with an RBI. A tired and shorthanded Orioles squad then had to turn around and play Kamloops immediately following the Kelowna game.

Kamloops would unceremoniously end the O’s run at the provincial title in the opening playoff game by beating Trail 16-1 Sunday night.

“We had nothing left. As it turned out we had to use Kellen to finish the Kelowna game to get us in, and now he’s going out for his third outing, which is quite a bit to ask.”

Trail was without pitching ace Scott Rhynold and key position players Kyle and Josh Mace, who are expected to return to the lineup for Western Championships in Winnipeg Aug. 23-26.

Langley beat Prince George 6-3 in the other elimination game, and downed Nanaimo 4-1 in the semifinal to set up Monday’s championship game with Kamloops.

The final score was unavailable at press time.

to medal

THE CANADIAN PRESS

LONDON - On a day when Canada wasn’t in the hunt for many Olympic medals, a number of athletes put themselves in position to step on the podium later in the week.

Kayaker Adam van Koeverden appears to be on track in the K-1 1,000 metres after winning both his morning heat and semifinal Monday.

“I felt fast and comfortable,” he said. “I was just gauging my stroke rate and feeling the wind.”

Van Koeverden will race for gold on Wednesday.

The 30-year-old from Oakville, Ont., says he’s experiencing nerves despite the fact this is his third Games.

“I didn’t sleep very well last night,” said van Koeverden, before adding: “I slept well until like 4 a.m. and then I got up. But nerves are good and pressure’s a luxury.

This nervous energy’s got to fuel me somehow.”

That wasn’t a problem for good friend Mark Oldershaw of Burlington, Ont., who reached the C-1 1,000metre canoe final by placing second in his semifinal.

Oldershaw failed to make the final in Beijing and blamed his nerves. Four years later, he’s much more comfortable.

“And whether I win a medal, I just feel like I have done everything I can,” said Oldershaw.

“And when you have that feeling, it’s easier to sleep and it’s a lot less nerves.”

The only event where Canada was in medal contention Monday was equestrian team jumping.

Jill Henselwood of Oxford Mills, Ont., Eric Lamaze of Schomberg, Ont., and Ian Millar of Perth, Ont., were looking to follow the country’s silver-medal performance from the 2008 Olympics.

Canada had a number of good performances in the morning session on the track.

Calgary’s Jessica Zelinka led the way in the 100-metre hurdles with a second-place finish in her heat to advance to the semifinals. She’ll be joined

by Phylicia George of Markham, Ont., and Nikkita Holder of Pickering, Ont., in that race on Tuesday.

For Zelinka, Monday’s heats marked her return to the track after seventh-place finish in the heptathlon.

LONDON - If NBC wants to show Usain Bolt’s 100-meter victory on tape delay, the IOC says that’s up to the network.

Bolt’s blinding dash in the signature event of the London Olympics on Sunday came at 4:50 p.m EDT. NBC broadcast the race on television hours later in prime time, frustrating fans accustomed to watching action as it happens and sharing instant reaction through social media.

On Monday, International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams deflected criticism aimed at NBC, which is the biggest financial backer of the Olympic body.

“It’s certainly not for us to tell them how to reach their audience,” Adams said, adding that NBC live-streamed the race for online viewers.

“If you wanted live, you could get it live.”

LEISURE

Lunch, dinner with boss can be misconstrued Dear Annie: For the past seven years, I’ve worked for “Joe” and his assistant, “Nancy.”

Nancy recently took a four-month leave due to stress and anxiety.

During her absence, Joe and I went to lunch a few times and dinner on one occasion.

Nothing romantic happened. I planned to let Nancy know at the time, but didn’t think it was important enough to send an email. I left her a voicemail to call me and hoped we’d get together during her leave. Unfortunately, I didn’t get the chance.

When she came back, Nancy accused me of “swooping in” and taking over Joe. I have tried talking to her, but she’s angry that I didn’t tell her during her leave. I explained that I tried, but she never called me back.

She claims I crossed her territory and now can’t be trusted. She believes I was plotting all along. I also suspect that she is spreading

ANNIE’S

MAILBOX

Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell

rumors about me, saying I want to sleep with Joe. That’s not true.

I am trying my best not to let this bother me. Joe has spoken to her, but I don’t have any idea what he said.

The problem is, it is extremely uncomfortable in the office now.

Although I love my work, I may need to look for a new job.

It upsets me that someone could be so cruel, even though I tried my best to be supportive during her leave. Any suggestions for coping with Nancy?

- Co-worker Dear Co-worker: Nancy seems very proprietary toward Joe, and unless they

are a romantic couple, he should set her straight. Her behavior is unprofessional and disruptive. But you are not entirely blameless. Having lunch and dinner with your boss could be misconstrued, and you were well aware that this would bother Nancy.

You should have made a greater effort to speak to her during her absence.

Apologize sincerely for unintentionally stepping on her toes, reassure her that you have no interest in Joe, and then let her make the next move. If time does not alleviate the situation, you may opt to take it up with human resources.

Dear Annie: My husband is retired, while I still work four days a week. He hires someone to cut the grass, but I trim the bushes, pull the weeds, wash the windows and do all the housecleaning and laundry. He will help cook because

I don’t have time and he likes to eat.

So what does he do all day? He hangs out with his friends, goes for a walk or to the gym, attends Bible study classes and visits the sick. I think maybe I should get sick and see if he will visit me. -Overworked in Ohio Dear Ohio: While it’s admirable that your husband visits the sick, he apparently believes that retirement means he is free from all obligations except those he willingly chooses. This is unfair to you. First try talking to him about it, explaining that you see no reason to have two jobs while he has none.

Tell him that pitching in and doing his share will help your marriage. But you also are taking on more than you need to. If you can afford it, hire someone to do the more difficult, time-consuming chores. Leave his laundry where it falls, and let him handle it. You can make choices, too.

Dear Annie: “Disgusted in Louisiana” took issue with your response to “Desperate Housewife” that all couples need to tend to their marriages and flirt with their spouses. I am sorry to hear how unhappy she

is.

I have been married to the love of my life for 50 years. Yes, perhaps the passion from long ago is gone, but we flirt, snuggle and have “date night,” and my heart still flutters when he enters the room. I

cannot imagine my life without him. Growing old together is exactly what we treasure. -Happy in El Paso Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar.

LEISURE

YOUR HOROSCOPE

By Francis Drake For Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Be on the lookout for new ways to earn money or boost your earnings. You also might see new uses or applications for something you already own.

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Take a realistic look in the mirror and ask yourself what you can do to improve your image. (You never get a second chance to make a first impression.)

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) This is an excellent day for research. You have a sense of where to look for solutions.

(Just like going for the jugular.)

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Discussions with others, especially in groups, will be powerful. You might meet someone who really blows your socks off. (Possibly, you

are this powerful person in the group.)

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You will impress bosses, parents, teachers and VIPs today because you’re decisive and forceful. You look like you know what you’re doing, and they’re impressed.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) You can forcefully persuade others to adopt your belief system about religion or politics today. Alternatively, you might encounter a person who has the same effect on you.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Look for new and different ways to use something that others own. You’re in a highly resourceful frame of mind, which allows you to see new applications for things. Clever you!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Sit down with partners and close friends and have

a heart-to-heart discussion today. If you do this, you will be able to come up with ways to improve the relationship to the benefit of all concerned.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) What can you do to start to improve your health? Is there something you can stop doing? Is there something you can start doing? Think about it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Creative projects might take on an entirely new light in your eyes today. You can put a new spin on an artistic project or dealing with children.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Look for ways to improve laundry areas, plumbing and bathrooms where you live today. You also might create a better system for garbage and recycling. Just do it.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) You’re unusually persuasive today. That’s why this is a great day for those of you who sell, market, teach, act or even drive for a living.

YOU BORN TODAY Because you are multitalented, you excel in many fields. This versatility can be confusing when young. (“What do I want to be when I grow up?”) When you embrace a particular role, you embrace

Salmo tailing pond repairs top $800,000

KIWANIS HELPS CADETS

BY SAM VAN SCHIE Nelson Star

More than $800,000 was spent on emergency work to stabilize the tailing pond at the HB Mine site near Salmo last month.

The site was under a state of emergency from July 3 to 25, after heavy rains caused a sinkhole to form on the underwater wall of the earthen dam, causing some sloughing and seepage along the slope. High capacity pumps were brought in to reduce the water level behind the dam while repair wok got underway.

Regional District of Central Kootenay, owners the HB Mine property, co-ordinated the emergency response, but the bill will be covered by the province.

Jim Gustafson, RDCK chief administrative officer, said the same is true for all the environmental disasters that resulted in states of emergency

this summer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the minor slide in Thrums, the flooding around Kootenay Lake, the massive landslide in Johnsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Landing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; it all follows the same process,â&#x20AC;? he explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once a state of emergency is declared, we plan the mitigation in conjunction with the province ... and they approve what sounds reasonable.â&#x20AC;?

At the HB Mine site, the bulk of the emergency funds were spent on reconstruction of the failed part of the dam, as well as paying someone to monitor the dam 24/7 for three weeks, and to keep two flaggers on standby near the highway below, so they could immediately stop traffic if the structure did fail.

With the state of emergency lifted, the burden of paying for ongoing work at the dam has shifted back to the RDCK.
