As reported in the Bulletin last week, Cranbrook has a huge problem with aging, failing infrastructure. And unfortunately, so does Kimberley. So does almost every municipality in the province and country.

The Canadian Infrastructure Report Card, issued in September of 2012, says that most infrastructure (waste water systems, drinking water systems and municipal roads) will require ever increasing investment as it ages.

“A mixed picture emerges for wastewater infrastructure, with about 40 per cent of wastewater plants, pumping stations and stor-

age tanks in “fair” to “very poor” condition, and 30.1 per cent of pipes in “fair” to “very poor” condition,” the report says. “The replacement cost for the wastewater infrastructure in “fair” to “very poor” condition is $39 billion, or $3,136 per Canadian household.

According to a City report prepared by Manager of Operations Mike Fox, Kimberley has 118 kilometres of water mains with 90 per cent of them needing replacement.

Kimberley also has 78 km of sewer mains and 65 km of storm mains.

One kilometre of water main costs approximately $575,000 to $600,000 to replace.

In 2012, the City replaced .597 km of water main and .128 km of sewer main.

provincial politics

Province issues Second Quarterly Report C AROLYN GR ANT bulletin@cyberlink.ca

Finance Minister Mike de Jong issued the province’s Second Quarterly Report on Wednesday, saying the government of B.C. is holding the line on fiscal prudence and continues to reduce and control government spending to address declining revenues.

Highlights of the report include a projected deficit for 2012-13 of $1.47 billion, a

$328-million increase from the First Quarterly Report; and a promise to reduce discretionary spending to mitigate the $241-million impact of the natural gas market on revenues.

Columbia River Revelstoke BC Liberal candidate Doug Clovechok says his government remains committed to balancing the 2013/2014 budget and is committed not to spend more money than British Columbia has.

“To do this we must make tough choices

and difficult decisions to protect BC’s economy, continue to create more jobs and make life affordable for British Columbian families,” Clovechok said. “That said, we are not immune to global economic downturns and I am not pleased to tell my neighbours that our Second Quarterly report for 2012-2013 projects a deficit of 1.47 billion; a $328 million increase from the First Quarterly report.

Tough news but these negative numbers are not unique to BC. In fact we are actually better positioned than Alberta with their

projected deficit to be between $2.3 and $3 billion.

“The question for BC is why? There has been a $202 million downturn in revenues from the First Quarterly Report projection from decreases in revenues from property tax and property transfer tax, the sale of LNG and a decline in coal prices.”

British Columbians shouldn’t have to ask why, says Columbia River Revelstoke MLA Norm Macdonald.

Wildsight seeks clarification for coal blocks Annalee Grant Townsman Staff

MP for Kootenay-Columbia David Wilks is speaking out after Wildsight’s request to protect a block of land from mining that he says was part of a sweeping mining ban put in place a year ago.

The land in question, Lot 82, lies to the east of Fernie and runs into the Flathead Valley Watershed in a southwest diagonal.

In November 2011 the B.C. government passed the Flathead Watershed Conservation Act that banned mining and oil and gas activity in the southern Flathead region. A 6,290 hectare portion of that protected land lies within the Dominion Coal Block Lot 82 and the provincial protection area, making up about one third of the entire block.

John Bergenske, executive director of Wildsight, said the group became concerned that the area may not be protected when the federal government released detailed topographic maps that showed the coalbed methane resource potential for Lot 82 earlier this year.

“What we were getting is bits and pieces from people,” Bergenske said. “We’ve been looking at the Flathead and we realized that the Dominion Coal Block is in fact an anomaly.”

Wildsight found that the provincial government had no rights to that federally owned land, and believe the ban does not include the portion found within the protection area and the Dominion Coal Block.

“Their jurisdiction is only on the provincial land,” Bergenske said.

Wildsight released a statement on Monday asking the federal government to commit to protecting these federally-owned lands as the provincial government did a year ago.

“The Flathead is not protected from open pit coal mining after all,” Bergenske said in the release.

“Weí’e calling on the federal government to make an immediate public commitment to join the ban on Flathead mining and energy development.”

But Wilks said Wildsight has incorrect information, and the portion of the Dominion Coal Block within the protection area has always been included in the provincial ban, even though they are federally held.

“They’re wrong,” Wilks said. “They are purporting something thatís false.”

In September, federal environment minister Peter Kent travelled to Cranbrook where he and a group of officials took a helicopter ride into the Flathead Valley to see all that would be protected.

In 2010, then-Premier Gordon Campbell and Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer signed a memorandum of understanding to prohibit mining and the development of oil, gas and coal resources throughout the B.C. Flathead. It is adjacent to the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, which is also a designated World Heritage Site and a UN Biosphere Reserve.

Wilks said Wildsight has been eyeing the Dominion Coal Blocks for many years, even though the wheels had been set in motion by government to protect the portion found within the Flathead Watershed.

“For a number of years the Dominion Coal Blocks has been a contentious issue for Wildsight,” he said.

Hands on learning at Selkirk DARBY DEAN For the Bulletin

On Thursday November 22, 2012, Mrs. Giacometti, who teaches the forensics science class at Selkirk Secondary School, had an eye opening presentation about the reality of the forensics world.

Cpl. Eric Barnes, who is a local Forensic RCMP officer, discussed the importance of forensic science to a crime scene.

During this presentation he exhibited the different procedures to collect physical evidence using the proper tools and techniques a real forensic Photo submitted investigator would use at a crime scene. Some of Cpl.

Differing views on Quarterly Report From Page 1 “In the Legislature last spring our Finance critic pointed out that projections for natural gas revenues were unrealistic,” Macdonald said. “That’s been held up by the reality of the last two fiscal updates.

Again this year the deficit will be well over $1 billion. The suggestions by the Premier that they will produce a balanced budget are not credible.”

“What is really important is to let my constituents know that their governments record of fiscal discipline continues to pay off,” Clovechok said. “British Columbia’s export markets, low debt to GDP ratio, our AAA credit rating, low taxes, and our continued efforts towards managing spending means that our province still remains well positioned to weather what continues to be called a very fragile global economic condition. BC continues to have a bright future however we have to continue to be fiscally responsible.”

Macdonald says the BC Liberals could begin by showing some fiscal responsibility when it comes to advertising costs.

“If there needs to

be cuts, why not in advertising? There is currently $50 million coming out of contingencies for advertising. Anyone who has seen the ads knows that a good percentage of them are partisan.

Some ads are still suggesting a balanced budget.”

Macdonald also points to the Quarterly Report mentioning keeping promises on the PST. “It’s ridiculous it took such a long time to get back to the PST.

““If there needs to be cuts, why not in advertising? There is currently $50 million coming out of contingencies for advertising.”

Norm Macdonald MLA A new system was implemented in 11 months. We are now 19 months from the referendum and 27 or 28 months since the petition indicated the HST was being rejected.”

If the BC Liberals are going to try to make the return of the PST an election issue, Macdonald said, it would be one of the most bizarre strategies ever.

“The whole HST experience has been a fiasco.”

Kimberley has infrastructure woes Carbon monoxide prevention Natural gas is used safely and reliably in homes across B.C. Regular inspection and maintenance is the best way to ensure peak performance of your natural gas appliances — and to prevent carbon monoxide (CO) in the home. Since CO is colourless and odourless, you can install a CO alarm for extra peace of mind.

To learn more about carbon monoxide safety, visit fortisbc.com/co.

FortisBC Energy Inc., FortisBC Energy (Vancouver Island) Inc., FortisBC Energy (Whistler) Inc., and FortisBC Inc. do business as FortisBC. The companies are indirect, wholly owned subsidiaries of Fortis Inc. FortisBC uses the FortisBC name and logo under license from Fortis Inc. (12-315 11/2012)

From Page 1 The report says that based on a replacement rate of .357 km a year, it would take 331 years to replace them all.

Obviously more capital spending on infrastructure is required, but costs are high and municipal taxpayers won’t tolerate too many more tax increases. And, with deficits running higher each year, the provincial and federal governments are less likely to pay.

The newly formed BC Mayors Caucus was formed to deal with these issues, says Kimberley Mayor Ron McRae. The Caucus wants a different funding model, rather than relying on grants they may or may not get.

“Ideally, municipalities don’t want the grant system anymore, where you have to beg for funding for each project,” McRae said. “We

would much rather have a stable pot of funding that each community can access each year.”

If a community could access that set amount of money each year, they could budget more easily and prioritize projects knowing exactly how much funding they had, McRae says.

However, changing the funding formula will take time, if it happens at all. While the Mayors Caucus lobbies, municipalities have to act on failing infrastructure now.

Fox’s report advises that municipalities start now to create and implement a plan to fund and replace assets immediately, as well as managing assets to extend their life.

Kimberley also has roads and bridges to maintain, but McRae says the real infrastructure problems are the underground water and sewer systems.

PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Public Notice is hereby given that the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the City of Cranbrook is considering adopting “City of Cranbrook Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3750, 2012”.

The proposed amendment of the Zoning Bylaw will replace the current zoning of the Canadian Rockies International Airport lands, legally described as Lot A (Formerly Kootenay Indian Reserve No. 1) Kootenay District, Plan NEP 23763, with a new Airport Zone and zoning map.

The purpose of the zoning bylaw amendment is to enable expanded opportunities for Airport uses and complementary industrial and commercial development on designated areas of the Airport lands. Additionally, the proposed Airport Zone indicates permitted uses and provides general development regulations with respect to site layout, off-street parking, landscaping and screening. The proposed Airport Zone is indicated on the reference map below.

Wildsight ‘fear mongering’, MP says From Page 3 Wilks said the protected area has been talked about since he was mayor of Sparwood and a member of the Regional District of East Kootenay.

“Lot 82 has always been a part of that plan and everyone knew that,” Wilks said.

Bergenske said the land within Lot 82 is part of the Flathead River headwaters, which is critical habitat and home to all major carnivores.

“The one third that is within the Flathead is the headwaters of the Flathead River,” he said.

“Headwater regions are particularly susceptible (to development).”

Lot 82 lies just to the west of Teck Coal’s Coal Mountain operations.

Nic Milligan, manager of community and Aboriginal affairs for Teck, said the company has no interest in the coal in that area, but is in fact looking at expanding their Marten Wheeler operations into Lot 73, which lies south of Sparwood, and east of Hosmer. Operations at Coal Mountain are expected to wind down in the next six to seven years and the company is looking into their next step.

“We have no interest in the Flathead block,î Milligan said. He also said Teck currently has no mineral rights in Lot

“City of Cranbrook Zoning Amendment Bylaw No. 3750, 2012” may be inspected between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, from November 20, 2012, to December 10, 2012, inclusive, as posted on the bulletin board in the foyer at City Hall, or in the office of the Municipal Clerk.

The Public Hearing will commence in the Council Chamber, City Hall, 40 10 Avenue South at 6:00 p.m. on December 10th, 2012.

All persons who believe that their interest in property is affected by the proposed Bylaw Amendment may submit written presentations to the City of Cranbrook prior to the date of the Hearing and they may also submit written and/or verbal presentations at the Hearing, thereby allowing all persons an opportunity to be heard on this matter.

SUBMISSIONS WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED AFTER THE PUBLIC HEARING. Municipal Clerk 73 that lies next to the Martine Wheeler property.

Wilks said Teck was well aware that a portion of Lot 82 was off limits to future expansion when they began exploring other options, and they were fine with the decision.

“As far as I understand, Teck even knew it and Teck agreed,” Wilks said.

As for the rest of Lot 82 outside of the protection area, Wilks said the area also has no proposed development at the moment.

“At this point in time there is no intention to go into Lot 82,” he said.

“They’re (Wildsight) fear mongering.”

Bergenske said Wildsight is not suggesting there is impending development scheduled for the area.

The Dominion Coal Blocks became federal lands a century ago when the Canadian government offered them as an incentive for the Canadian Pacific Railway to push through the Rockies to the coast.

The federal government offered the coal reserves to CPR should they need them at a time when the difference between metallurgical coal and thermal coal was not known.

Thermal coal is used for power generation while metallurgical coal is used in the making of iron and steel. The latter is mined out of the Elk Valley.

The CPR never used the Dominion Coal Blocks, and from 1910 to 1940 much of B.C.’s Crown land was transferred to the provincial government; however, there are no documents on record of the Dominion Coal Blocks ever being taken out of federal jurisdiction. It has since then always been referred to as federal land as the coal mining industry in the Elk Valley boomed.

Warm, fuzzy separatist dreams In other parts of the world, separatist movements are usually violent (e.g. Kashmir, Sri Lanka, the various Kurdish revolts) and they sometimes succeed (South Sudan, Eritrea, East Timor). Whereas in the prosperous, democratic countries of the West, they are generally peaceful, frivolous, and unsuccessful.

A case in point is the various separatist movements in the European Union. Scotland will be holding a vote on independence from Britain in 2014, and both Catalonia and the Basque country in Spain have just elected nationalist governments that promise to hold referendums on independence. But it will probably never happen.

The Scots, the Catalans and the Basques tend to see themselves as victims, but nobody else does. They are self-governing in most matters except defence and foreign affairs, they have their own budgets, and they maintain separate education systems and cultural institutions.

What really drives the separatism is emotion, which is why popular support for it is so soft. Rectifying the historic defeat of (insert name of centuries-old lost battle here) by declaring independence in the here-and-now has great emotional appeal, but most people put their economic interests first. Nationalist leaders therefore always promise that independence will change nothing important on the economic front.

The way they do this in both Scotland and the separatist regions of Spain is by insisting that membership in the European Union would pass automatically to the

successor state. The opponents of secession, however, argue that there’s nothing automatic about it.

The arguments are not just directed at the home audience. Last month, when Scotland’s First Minister, Alex Salmond, agreed the terms for the 2014 referendum with the British government, Spanish Foreign Gwynne Minister Jose Manuel Garcia-Margallo promptly deDyer clared that an independent Scotland would NOT automatically be an EU member, and that any one of the 27 EU member states (like Spain, for example) could veto it.

This was furiously disputed by Alex Salmond, who knew that his chances of winning the 2014 referendum were nil if the Scots believed that they were voting to leave the EU. For months he insisted that he had sought the opinion of his government’s law officers, who had confirmed that Scotland would inherit EU membership automatically, and would not even have to adopt the euro. Alas, he was lying.

Late last month, it became known that Salmond had not actually asked for the law officers’ opinion at all. Now he has been forced by public opinion to pop the question — and he may not like the answer.

An even bigger defeat for Salmond came in his negotiations with British prime minister David Cameron, where he had to agree that the referendum would ask a simple yes-or-no question: in or out? This goes against the instincts of all separatist leaders, who prefer a fuzzy, feel-good question that doesn’t mention the frightening word “independence” at all.

The most famous formulation of this question was in the 1995 Quebec referen-

dum on secession from Canada: “Do you agree that Quebec should become sovereign after having made a formal offer to Canada for a new economic and political partnership within the scope of the bill respecting the future of Quebec and of the agreement signed on June 12, 1995?” Not exactly clear, is it?

That referendum was very close, but in 2000 the Canadian federal government passed a law generally known as the “Clarity Act”. It said that negotiations between the federal government and any province on secession should only follow “a clear expression of the will of the population of a province that the province cease to be part of Canada.”

This requirement would not be met, it added, if the referendum question “merely focuses on a mandate to negotiate without soliciting a direct expression of the will of the population of that province on (independence),” or if the question “envisages other possibilities..., such as economic or political arrangements with Canada, that obscure a direct expression of the will of the population on (secession).”

This law drastically reduces the likelihood that the separatists could win any future referendum in Quebec, and it’s obviously what David Cameron had in mind in his negotiations with Salmond on the Scottish referendum. As for Catalonia and Euskara, the national parliament in Madrid must approve of any referendum on separation, and the current Spanish government has made it abundantly clear that it has no intention of doing that.

So it’s mostly just hot air and hurt feelings, really.

Opinion/features Letters to the Editor

I wish to address William Hills’ letter of Nov. 19, regarding culling and his scathing comments regarding myself and the British Columbia Deer Protection Coalition (BCDPC). I am writing as Chair of Humane Treatment of Urban Wildlife, a partner organization of the BCDPC. Contrary to what Mr. Hills states, there are many proven viable non-lethal methods for deer control. One of the resources we’ve researched is our National Park system. For example, three communities in the National Parks use hazing (adverse conditioning) to control elk, geese and deer in locations known for human/wildlife conflict.

The BCDPC would like to see communities utilize trained people and their canine teams. For example, Chris Jobe of Canine Solutions have successfully worked to haze deer in Waterton National Park without injury to animals and humans, using trained dogs to herd the deer away from the urban setting. It’s no different from sheep herding which has been used for thousands of years. Banff, Canmore, Iroquois Heights, Ont, and Lake Tahoe in

California have also used hazing to control where wildlife can get too comfortable.

The BCDPC does not advocate translocation, which Mr. Hills brought up. 30 per cent of the deer moved will die of a biological effect called Capture Myopathy. Capture Myopathy is a syndrome which often develops after restraint of wild animals.

Simply removing deer, either through killing them or moving them, creates a vacuum effect. As long as there are attractants (food and shelter) nature will back-fill the void with more animals. Translocation would cause an expensive, inhumane, never-ending need to move the deer out of town.

I said in a previous article that the Cranbrook cull was ineffective in reducing deer numbers. The methodology I followed was the Cranbrook Urban Deer Management Advisory Committee (CUDMAC) under the guidance of a Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Wildlife Biologist, which conducted a count in March, 2012. Three months after the cull of December 2011, CUDMAC volunteers ended up counting more deer in Cranbrook than in the previous count. Statistics are available to any citizen on the City of

Cranbrook’s website.

Mr. Hills says controlling landscaping plants would be undemocratic. It would be no more undemocratic than the city controlling fence heights, parking, building structures, or noise levels at specific times of day.

In closing, I have to say my participation on CUDMAC is not a conflict of interest. The City of Cranbrook is seeking a varied and diverse set of opinions on CUDMAC. The Ministry of Environment’s Report on Urban Ungulates recommends that animal welfare advocates be included in community committees to discuss reducing conflict with deer. To remove me from CUDMAC and to have only those who promote the culling of urban deer is what would be undemocratic.

St. Eugene Residential School: Part II JANUS: Cranbrook Then & Now

Jim Cameron “A nation is not conquered until the hearts of its women are on the ground. Then, it is done, no matter how brave its warriors nor how strong its weapons.”

Cheyenne proverb.

On April 20, 1910, the Department of Indian Affairs invited tenders for the immediate construction of an industrial school at the St. Eugene Mission near Cranbrook. It would be one of the first in the province and would replace the existing school established two decades earlier. In early June, Fernie contractor J. J. Woods was awarded the task. Authorization arrived from Ottawa the following month and work began on July 26, 1911.

On the afternoon of Nov. 1 1911, Oblate Missionary Father Beck laid the cornerstone of the building in front of a large gathering comprised chiefly of members of the Kootenay (Ktunaxa) tribe. R.T. Galbraith, local Indian Agent of eighteen years, gave a short address followed

by Father Beck. The keynote of Father Beck’s address dealt with the fact that “the true Christian made the best man and therefore the Canadian government took care to see that its Indian protégées should have every opportunity of becoming good Christians. In closing he impressed upon the Indian parents to realize their responsibility and see to it that their children enjoyed the priv-

The cornerstone itself contained a written history of the establishment of the school, two Cranbrook and one Nelson newspapers, coins of the reign of Kings Edward and George and (perhaps somewhat oddly) medals fashioned from copper taken from Lord Nelson’s flagship “Victory.” What was not included was the fact that many residential schools soon to be constructed throughout Canada, would function in the

most Draconian fashion imaginable, with children of all ages torn away from their homes for the duration of their “education” and held as little more than prisoners while being subjected to abuses and deprivations of the worst sort. That lay in the future, however. First came the building.

The construction of the St. Eugene school carried on through the spring of 1912. Various delays, including an extended wait for the granite steps of the main entrance and

the boilers necessary for the heating system slowed things and thus it was not until Dec. 1912, that the school was more or less complete. It stood as one of the largest buildings in western Canada, a bleak, concrete behemoth hulking over the landscape, a constant reminder to parents that their children were now firmly in the hands of the Federal government and its appointed taskmasters.

Knoblauch takes over Erie Otters ANNALEE GRANT Townsman Staff

The Erie Otters have announced that Kris Knoblauch will be their new head coach, starting immediately.

Knoblauch was on his way out of the Kootenays Thursday morning, after what Otters managing party and general manager Sherry Bassin said was a night of negotiations. The team announced Thursday they had relieved head coach Robbie Ftorek of his coaching duties.

“Based on this decision, I negotiated through the night and am happy to announce that Kris Knoblauch has accepted, in principle, the position as head coach of the Erie Otters,” Bassin said in a release.

Knoblauch will have little time to adjust once he arrives in Erie, Pennsylvania. The team will take to the ice against the Sault St. Marie Greyhounds on Friday evening.

“It’ll be a good opportunity,” he told the Townsman.

The Otters, a member of the OHL, are last in the league’s western conference with seven wins and 15 losses on their track record since the season opened.

Knoblauch said his priority once he arrives at the rink will be to adjust the team to his coaching

methods and have a solid offering on the ice heading into Christmas.

“It’ll take a while to implement the style of hockey I like to play,” he said.

But the long-time coach isn’t deterred, and looks forward to working with the fresh talent.

Jared du Toit has committed to the University of Idaho, after checking out schools all over the United States.

Kris Knoblauch “The Erie Otters have a lot of great, young hockey players,” he said.

Knoblauch has spent the past few months with the Kimberley Dynamiters as an assistant coach since being removed as head coach of the Kootenay Ice in May. The Dynamiters will be left with no head coach, after Roman Vopat announced he was resigning last week. Remaining is assistant coach Jordan Foreman and Todd White.

“I certainly feel very lucky to have been in the Kootenays,” Knoblauch said. “I think I learned a lot with both teams.”

Kimberley golfer headed for NCAA competition TRE VOR CR AWLEY

Kimberley golfer Jared du Toit has begun the next step of his golfing career, by committing to the University of Idaho, where he will compete in the NCAA and further his education.

Du Toit, 17, had many offers from other institutions such as South Dakota State, Colorado State, University of Minnesota, Simon Fraser University, but a few factors tipped the scales in Idaho’s favour.

“The coach was a huge factor for me in me picking that school,” said du Toit. All the guys on the team and I had very similar interests. I like the campus, I like the area, it’s fairly close to home and the education’s good, too.

“I’m happy it’s all over, it was pretty stressful. I went on five different visits to different schools all over the country and the States, bunched them all together and figured Idaho was the best fit for me.”

Du Toit is still debating what to take after he graduates high school. He’s been accepted into the civil engineering program, but he’s also looking at a business program.

He’ll be juggling his studies with golf, where he will be competing in the Big Sky conference of the NCAA. He has a seven week golf schedule in the fall before a winter break, followed by six to eight weeks in the spring.

“You go down south a little bit, too, and keep your game at tip top shape, but competitive-wise, there are no tournaments in the winter,” said du Toit.

It’s been a big year for the young golfer.

He recently returned from Phoneix, AZ, where he was competing in the Maple Leaf Junior Tour U18 Nationals, where he finished second in his age category.

He also competed in the Calloway Junior World Golf Championships in San

Diego last July, where he finished 34th in a field of 200 golfers.

That event was the one that kicked off interest from the NCAA schools, du Toit added.

“I sent out a bunch of letters to schools I was interested in, and Idaho was one of them, but none of them really gave me a serious look until that tournament,” du Toit said.

As for now, he’ll keep his swing in shape by hitting balls into a net at a friend’s shed, which also has a little putting green. He’ll also take a few trips to Calgary, which has an indoor driving range facility for him to let loose with his drivers and irons.

He has two more tournaments over the winter, as he he’ll head back to Arizona for some golf in Scottsdale at the end of December, before heading over to San Diego for a junior amateur tournament in January.

Golf to ban the use of putters anchored to the body A S S O C I AT E D P R E S S

Golf’s governing bodies, worried that players will turn to long putters as an advantage instead of a last resort, proposed a new rule Wednesday that would ban the putting stroke used by three of the last five major champions.

The Royal & Ancient Golf Club and the U.S. Golf Association said the rule would not outlaw belly putter or broom-handle putters, only the way they are currently used. The proposed rule would make it illegal for golf-

ers to anchor the club while making a stroke and not take effect until 2016.

“More players are using it, and instructors are saying this is a more efficient way to putt because you don’t have to control the whole stroke,” USGA executive director Mike Davis said. “The game has been around for 600 years. Fundamentally, we don’t think this is the right way to go.”

Keegan Bradley was the first player to win a major with the belly putter at the 2011 U.S. PGA Championship. Webb

Simpson and Ernie Els used belly putters to win majors this year.

Officials say the golf stroke should be a free swing, and anchoring a club eliminates part of the skill.

“Our objective is to preserve the skill and challenge,” R&A chief executive Peter Dawson said. “This rule is not performance related. This is about defining the game defining what is a stroke.”

Davis and Dawson said the catalyst for the new rule was not who was winning tourna-

ments, but the number of players switching to long putters.

Their research showed no more than 4 per cent of golfers used the clubs for several years. It went to 6 per cent in 2006, and then to 11 per cent in 2011, with some PGA Tour events having as much as 20 per cent of the players using the long clubs. There was no empirical data to suggest a long putter made golf easier.

The rule would apply to golfers at every level. It would not take effect until 2016.

Cranbrook’s Juniper Lanes helps Variety launch B.C.-wide fundraiser Submit ted by Variet y

BURNABY, BC - Every parent hopes to give their child as many opportunities as possible in life – the best school, music and dance lessons, team sports – the list is endless.

But when your child can’t keep up, and there’s no obvious reason, it can be a frustrating as well as a frightening experience.

Jennifer’s son Oliver, now 6 years old, was a seemingly normal baby. But when he didn’t crawl until 13 months, or walk until 18 months, Jennifer knew something was wrong.

“Because he had no cognitive problems, the pediatricians limited their testing to specific areas. It wasn’t until we got genetic testing through a neurologist in Vancouver that they figured out what was wrong.”

The news was a huge shock for Jennifer and her husband Mike – Oliver had muscular dystrophy.

“When I got the phone call, the specialist said the MRI showed nothing specific, but the genetic test showed Charcot-Marie-Tooth, which affects the nerves of the hands and feet. I couldn’t believe he had a degen-

erative disease. It was like being kicked in the stomach.”

The disease affects Oliver’s hands, feet, arms and legs. His whole core if off balance and he walks with an awkward gait. What Jennifer and Mike did not know was that Mike also had the gene, but had never been diagnosed.

Unfortunately, it was also passed on to their younger son Elliott, who is four. In a way, the news gave Mike some closure as he finally understood why, as a child, he had always been slower and weaker than his friends. But there is no cure for the disease, and without any kind of intervention, the likelihood that the boys will end up using walkers, and then wheelchairs, later in life is high.

For now, both boys receive physiotherapy treatment twice a week, occupational therapy, and counseling. “Oliver knows he is different from his peers,” says Jennifer. “It’s really hard for him.”

On the advice of their physiotherapist, Jennifer and Mike reached out to Variety, who paid for Oliver and Elliot’s physiotherapy, leg & hand splints, and orthotics.

And the family is thrilled to be

able to give back.

Oliver and Elliott are this year’s poster boys for Variety’s BC Bowls For Kids, a two-month long fundraising campaign in partnership with Bowl BC and Youth Bowling Canada. Throughout December 2012 and January 2013, bowling centres across BC, including Juniper Lanes in Cranbrook, are encouraging leagues, teams and individuals to collect pledges and bowl for Variety. This year marks the 27th anniversary of the campaign, which has raised $3 million for children who have special needs.

Lampooning the so–called War On Christmas It’s not even Advent yet, but the annual silliness about the so– called “war on Christmas” has already begun. This war seems to consist of such nefarious practices as people saying “Happy Holidays” rather than “Merry Christmas”.

At least two organizations have posted their “Naughty and Nice” lists. Both Liberty Counsel and the American Family Association list stores which publicly mention Christmas (nice) or not (naughty). The purpose of this list is to encourage Christians to shop at stores that wish them a Merry Christmas and boycott the rest.

Rather than reaching out in love with the good news of healing and grace and compassion which is at the

heart of the Christian gospel, they are acting as if they have to circle the wagons in the face of what they perceive as a threat. It makes me wonder how strong their Christian identity really is. Do they really want Christians to form a “holy huddle” or live in a Christian ghetto which they organize for themselves?

In my opinion, this goes against one of the most important goals of Christian faith. Followers of Jesus are called to be in the world, reaching out to other folks, living out God’s gospel values, and leavening life with their presence. Instead, these organizations try to encourage Christians to surround themselves only with other Christians, exchanging Christian greetings with one an-

other. As a result, they ignore the world which the Bible clearly says “God loved” so much.

It’s not the world that censors their so– called right to say ‘Merry Christmas’.

They censor themselves as they gather only with like–minded people, and shop only in stores which share their beliefs and boycott other stores.

But is it really the responsibility of stores and retailers to promote Christ? I don’t believe it is. That is the work of those who profess to follow Jesus.

This list, problematic as it may be, is not nearly as bad as the email I have received from over half a dozen people with a link to one of the silliest songs I have ever heard in my life. It features Carrie Rinderer and the

Janus: The St. Eugene Residential School: Part II Continued from page 7

Fifty-five feet high and composed of nearly 27,000 exterior concrete blocks with 350,000 locally manufactured bricks in the interior, it was proclaimed as one of the most up-to-date building for the purpose in the west.

Upon entering the main entrance one passed through a vestibule into a corridor to the left of which was the Sister Superior’s reception room and staff living room. To the right stood the Indian Agent’s office and a parlour, bedroom and bath for visiting officials. To the fore stood the staff and visitor’s dining rooms, the staff infirmary and convalescent wards and a bathing area. A corridor connected to the Mission-style chapel at the rear of the building.

At the southern end stood the girls classrooms and to the north, that of the boys.

The upper floor held the dormitories, with the Sister’s in the center and the children’s at each end. Connected to both the Sister’s and the girl’s dormitory was a loggia, or outdoor sleeping balcony, connected to an infirmary with the

same for the boys on the other end. The exposed sleeping areas were intended, so it was reported, “for the treatment of the children that may from time to time develop or exhibit signs of tubercular troubles or for the children who are fresh into the school from the reserve, where they live very largely in the open air and tents.”

(It should be noted that a 2011 Canadian government inquiry into deaths of students at Indian residential schools failed to ascertain actual numbers although numerous other reports and research papers have made educated guesses. Overcrowding, poor sanitation and a lack of medical care led to a high rate of tuberculosis and whooping cough causing death rates in some schools estimated as high as 50 - 60 per cent. Compulsory government sterilization of students was also practiced in some provinces.)

Each end of the basement contained recreation, shower and toilet rooms for the children while the central portion was taken up by the large main dining

room, kitchen, larder and cold storage rooms.

The foremost section contained the heating plant adjoining a generator room (containing a 15 horsepower gasoline engine which produced all light at the Mission including the two hundred bulbs in the school) and a dispensary. The bakery, creamery and living quarters for the farm instructors and janitor sat beneath the chapel. Under the basement floor was the sewage drainage system leading to a large septic tank 350 ft. from the building. The attic was reserved as a recreational space during inclement weather and storage.

As to the schooling received, a 1910 school report issued by Father Beck indicates that education consisted largely of the tending of gardens, orchards and farm animals. Boys were given some manual training while girls studied the “domestic arts.”

The school closed in 1970. It is now part of the St. Eugene Mission Resort.

Next week: The Black Robes of the White Man’s Burden.

Yme Woensdregt American Christian Life United Choir, neither of which I’ve heard of before.

The song begins, “If you don’t see ‘Merry Christmas’ in the window, No! You don’t go in that store. If you don’t see ‘Merry Christmas’ in the window, Yes! You walk right by that door.”

The song continues to tell Christians to avoid any store that doesn’t proclaim the message that the only reason for the season is the birth of Jesus.

While they may see this as persecution, I fail to see how hearing someone say ‘Happy Holidays’ is oppressive.

By the same token, I’m not quite clear on how anyone can force someone else to say something they don’t wish to say.

The song gets sillier.

I can’t help but giggle when, in the middle of this song about the birth of Jesus, Ms. Rinderer proclaims a list of “What would be missing, now let’s see, if not for Christ’s nativity”.

The first thing on the list is “No ‘Silent Night’ or ‘First Noel’.”

Fair enough. Were it not for the birth, there would be no carols.

The song continues with an irony I find to be hilarious, “No Santa’s sleigh or Jingle Bells, No star atop the Christmas tree, No special day for family, No bells that ring for angels’ wings, No dolls and trains that Santa

brings.”

The list goes on to include Scrooge, Tiny Tim, Christmas lights, stockings, Santa (again), and the climax of the list, “No partridge in a pear rum pa pum pum.”

On the one hand, she wants to promote a Christmas that is only about Christ. On the other hand, the things she values and would miss are the very commercial things about which she complains — Santa ... and bells ... and lights ... and trees loaded with presents, and other things which would make for a happy holiday.

Seriously? This kind of nonsense is profoundly anti–Christian.

I would hope that anyone who is a Christian and takes his or her faith seriously would oppose it. We are called not to withdraw from the world, but to be in it as people who live with compassion, grace and justice.

And maybe, perhaps someone should warn Liberty Counsel and the American Family Association that they might just be on Jesus’ “Naughty List”.

B.C. families launch search for sacred masks Ke ven Dre ws Canadian Press

VANCOUVER — For the Hamilton and Sayers families, the two cedar masks depicting male and female serpents and known as hinkeets to the Hupacasath culture of Vancouver Island were among the most sacred of possessions.

Accompanied by shawls and even a specific dance, the masks were born of royal roots and for more than 100 years had been passed down the generations for their safe keeping — until they were sold unbeknownst to family members at an auction at the beginning of November.

The families say one of their own, a relation entrusted with their safe keeping, was behind the sale, and now they’re pleading with whomever may have bought them for a chance to negotiate their return.

The family member responsible for the masks was out of the country and could not be reached for comment.

“These things are considered to be some of our very highest property, and they would be covered by our very highest laws, and those laws have consequences to them,’’ said Wawmeesh G. Hamilton, a member of the Hupacasath First Nation and a journalist.

“So it’s an egregious offence.’’

Hamilton said the masks sold

for about $4,000 and $22,500 at the auction, a sale he only learned about when he was tipped off by a cousin who’d been attending the same event.

Judith Sayers, a former elected chief for the Hupacasath who lectures in law and business at the University of Victoria and is a first cousin to Wawmeesh, said she tried but was unsuccessful in getting the masks removed from bidding or even finding out who bought them.

The auctioneer, Seahawk Auctions, declined to comment.

The origin of the masks is with the Ucluelet First Nation, a band that calls the west coast of Vancouver Island home.

“Only members of chiefs families could use these things,’’ said Hamilton.

“They were considered a very high and sacred item.’’

So sacred were the masks that they were used infrequently, and only during potlatches, memorials and naming ceremonies, said Hamilton who noted protocol even dictates how they were to be stored.

Hamilton said the masks were part of his grandmother’s dowry when she married and moved inland to the Alberni Valley at the beginning of the 20th century. He said his grandmother also held the title, Hakuum, which means queen or monarch.

The masks, he said, were handed down to his mother, Jessie Hamilton, who died in 2008, before they were again passed on.

Hamilton said he was drinking a coffee and surfing the web at the beginning of November when he was tipped off to the sale by a cousin who was at the auction to try and buy back art from his own family.

“He said ‘there’s some things here that I think belong to your family,’’’ said Hamilton. “’They’re being shown online and you should look.’’’

Hamilton said he visited the auction house’s website and saw masks that looked like his family’s cedar masks.

While the auction house would not confirm the seller’s name, Hamilton said he then contacted Sayers who confirmed the identity of the masks and the shawls before calling the auctioneer herself.

“We asked the auction house if they would remove them from the sale until the ownership issue could be cleared up and they just absolutely refused,’’ said Sayers.

Sayers said the relative didn’t have the right to sell the masks, contending they were “cultural property’’ owned by the family.

Hamilton said similar, saying the relative “assumed cultural ownership, in a way, but she becomes the keeper of them for the family.’’

TV’s original Batmobile to be sold in car auction ASSOCIATED PRESS

LOS ANGELES — Batman’s ride is up for sale — just the thing for cruising on those Dark Knights.

The original Batmobile from the 1960s TV series will be auctioned on Jan. 19 at the Barrett-Jackson auction house in Scottsdale, Ariz.

The 19-foot-long black, bubble-topped car was used in the TV show that starred Adam West as the Caped Crusader.

The car’s owner — famed auto customizer George Barris, of Los Angeles — transformed a one-of-a-kind 1955 Lincoln Futura concept car into a sleek

crime-fighting machine.

On the show, it boasted lasers and a Batphone and could lay down smoke screens and oil slicks.

And just like Batman, the Batmobile has its secrets.

The auction house won’t say how much it hopes to get for the car.

NEW YORK — New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg on Wednesday helped light the Rockefeller Center tree, an 80foot Norway spruce that made it through Superstorm Sandy.

Thousands of onlookers crowded behind barricades on the streets that surrounded Rockefeller Center. A video screen was provided for those who did not have a direct line of sight of the tree, which was illuminated with more than 30,000 lights and topped by a Swarovski star.

“It makes me want to sing and dance,’’ said Zuri Young, who came several hours early with her boyfriend to watch the lighting for the first time.

“I’ve heard a lot about it. I was kind of sick of staying home and watching it on television,’’ the 19-year-old nursing student from Queens said.

The tree came from the Mount Olive, New Jersey, home of Joe Balku. Balku lost power and other trees during the storm at his residence about an hour outside of Manhattan.

The tree was taken from his home in November. It had been there for years, measuring about 22 feet tall in 1973 when Balku

The Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree is lit during the 80th annual tree lighting ceremony at Rockefeller Center in New York, Wednesday, Nov. 28, 2012. bought the house. It’s now 50 feet in diameter and weighs 10 tons.

Erik Pauze, the head gardener at Tishman Speyer, one of the owners of Rockefeller Center, picked out the tree. He said he found it by accident when he got lost while returning to the city on a tree hunting expedition.

“It wasn’t even on our list. It was a good find,’’ Pauze said.

Pauze said workers prepared for Superstorm Sandy by bracing the tree with cables to secure and protect it.

The lights were turned on just before 9 p.m. Wednesday in the 80th annual celebration.

People will be able to view the tree until Jan. 7. After its stint in the spotlight, it will be turned into lumber for Habitat for Humanity.

NEWS Melting ice sheets cause rise in sea level Russian kids Bob Weber Canadian Press

A study believed to be the most comprehensive ever done of the planet’s ice sheets shows that, overall, they are melting faster and faster.

And as world leaders meet in Doha, Qatar, to discuss responses to climate change, the paper published Thursday in the journal Science shows the loss of ice from Greenland and the Antarctic is making an ever-greater contribution to rising sea levels.

“It’s an observation with sufficient certainty to tell people the changes in the polar ice sheets are very much in line with what we expect those changes in climate to produce,’’ said co-author Andrew Shepherd of the University of Leeds.

Shepherd was one of an international team of 47 scientists who combined a wide array of data from 10 satellite missions and other sources to provide the clearest picture yet of what has been happening with the massive sheets of ancient ice that help anchor Earth’s climate

at both ends.

Previous attempts to assess those sheets — the paper lists 29 of them since 1998 — have resulted in widely varying estimates.

Combining the data sets from those previous studies, including important information from Canada’s Radarsat, has yielded the best measurement yet, the report says.

Overall, the sheets have lost about 4,250 gigatonnes of ice since 1992, enough to raise the average sea level around the globe by 11 millimetres.

That may not sound like much, but Erik Ivins of California’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory says it’s enough to matter.

“When you have 11 millimetres of increased sea level, if you compute the amount of mass that’s capable of coming on shore during storm surge, it’s a lot of mass,’’ he said. “Small changes in sea levels in certain places mean very big changes in the kind of protection of infrastructure you need to have in place.’’

The refined measure-

This July 4, 2012 image provided by Ian Joughin, shows surface melt water rushing along the surface of the Greenland Ice Sheet through a supra-glacial stream channel, southwest of Ilulissat, Greenland. ments also allowed the scientists to get more accurate regional readings.

“Antarctica appears to be more or less constant, although it appears for the last decade we appear to see about a 50 per cent increase ice loss rate,’’ Ivins said.

“Greenland is losing mass at about five times the rate today as it was in the early 1990s.’’

The authors warn their study can’t be used to make hard predictions about what’s going to happen to the ice caps in the future.

“We thought we understood ice sheets, but as we observed them closer and closer we found we didn’t understand them very well,’’ Ivins said.

“Projecting into the future may be as uncertain as it was four years ago.’’

MOSCOW — Most primary school classes get a goldfish to keep, a hamster or a turtle if they’re lucky — but children from one village in southern Russia got to play with a lion cub.

Children in the Rostov region found the 5-month old cub on the steppe Wednesday and brought it to their teacher, who kept it in the school gym, police said Thursday.

While waiting for police, children petted and played with the cub, named Barsik. One boy even tried to ride it like a horse while it mewled and swiped at the air.

The cub had escaped from a car on the way to a zoo in Dagestan in the North Caucasus. It has now been removed from the school and placed in a local zoo.

Letters detailing carnage of the War of 1812 going up for auction Canadian Press

TORONTO — Draft letters detailing the carnage of the War of 1812 are going up for auction next month.

Three drafts of letters written in 1814 by Alexander Dobbs, a commander of a squadron of British ships, recount the Battle of Lundy’s Lane (one of the bloodiest battles ever fought in Canada), the explosion of H.M.S.

Magnet, and the Siege of Fort Erie.

In his missive about the Siege of Fort Erie, he writes: “Our losses have been very severe: 10 seamen and 11 marines killed, 15 seamen and 18 marines wounded and missing. I fear a number of the latter were blown up. Lieut.

Stevenson, Mr. Harris Master and myself were wounded. Mr. Hinde, Masters Mate, had his

thigh broke and was left in the ditch where I fear he must have perished.

If there is any inaccuracy in this I trust you will excuse it, as my head aches so intolerably I can scarce hold it up.’’

The letters have presale estimates of $2,000 to $3,000.

Another letter written to Dobbs from a superior is estimated at $1,000 to $1,500. A document from 1812 mark-

ing an ensign’s military appointment is estimated at $3,000 to $4,000.

And a land survey document that was entitled “Road of Communication From York to Nottawasaga Bay’’ dated 1795 is expected to go for between $2,000 to $3,000.

Waddingtons will offer the war artifacts during an auction in Toronto on Dec. 12.

Actress Lindsay Lohan arrested again Associated Press

Actress Lindsay Lohan is under arrest after police say she hit a woman during an argument at a New York City nightclub.

New York City police say Lohan was placed under arrest at 4 a.m. Thursday and charged

with third-degree assault.

They say she got into the argument with another woman at Club Avenue in the Chelsea section of Manhattan. Police say she struck the woman in face with her hand. The victim did not require medical attention.

The actress has had frequent brushes with law enforcement.

She was involved in a New York City police investigation in September. She alleged a man had assaulted her in a New York hotel, but charges against the man were later dropped.

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My wife and I have a wonderful 3-year-old son. We have a great home and make good money, but life stinks.

For the past year, my wife has insisted on allowing our son to sleep in our bed. And in case you’re about to ask, the answer is yes, we have not been able to do the one thing that married people normally do in bed.

When my wife puts our son in his own bed, she unbuttons her shirt and lets him nurse until he falls asleep. Without fail, he wakes up before midnight and walks into our room. If I tell him to go back to his room, he starts crying, and my wife then permits him to crawl into our bed.

I went to a therapist on my own. His advice was to tell my wife, “You can sleep in our son’s bed if you want it that way.” Guess what. She did.

He’s the clingiest kid I ever saw, and his mom seems to need him a lot more than he needs her. I feel like I’m competing for her attention. Any advice? -- N.Y. Dear N.Y.: Your wife is using her son as an excuse to avoid intimacy. This does a disservice not only to your marriage, but to your child. He is learning that if he cries, he will get whatever he wants, and that he is winning the competition for Mom’s affections. And yes, she has made it more of a competition than it needs to be. Please don’t blame your son for being “clingy,” and try not to focus on your sexual frustration. Instead, try to get your wife to understand that her behavior is unfair to the boy. Urge her to discuss this with her doctor, your child’s pediatrician or a counselor.

Dear Annie: I’ve been friends with “Sue” and “Mary” for years. Last year, I asked Sue to drive me to a cosmetic medical procedure in another state. She agreed and also wanted the procedure. She asked me to include Mary, which meant planning the trip around Mary’s work schedule.

We set tentative dates, and I made motel reservations and arranged clinic availability. Mary kept changing her mind about coming and finally admitted that she didn’t want the procedure. When she cancelled again, Sue moved up our departure time. Mary then reconsidered and wanted to come after all. I told her the departure time had been moved up, and she said she’d drive herself and meet us there.

Two days later, Mary sent me a letter saying she wasn’t coming and lambasted me because I “didn’t know what it was to be a friend.” I thought we’d talk it out, but that was a year ago, and we have yet to speak.

I don’t feel I owe Mary an apology. Sometimes I think she was looking for an excuse to squeeze me out of her friendship with Sue. It seems immature for a middle-aged woman to behave in such a fashion. Any suggestions? -- Three’s a Crowd Dear Crowd: You don’t owe her an apology, although it might help to say you are sorry that things became so complicated and difficult, and you regret that the friendship suffered as a result. And you could ask Sue to help. But frankly, after all this time, we have to assume Mary isn’t interested in renewing your bond.

Dear Annie: “Confused in N.C.” asked who should pay for birthday and anniversary dinners at a restaurant. Here’s my solution: When inviting people to a restaurant, I make it clear that I will pay for appetizers, wine and dessert. Guests are welcome to come whenever, and some only come for dessert, which is fine. That way, those on a budget can participate, and I don’t break the bank. Often, guests will buy a bottle of wine for the table as a birthday present. -Can’t Always Entertain at Home Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Age difference

Study says Grand Canyon much older, formed when dinosaurs lived Alicia Chang Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The awe-inspiring Grand Canyon was probably carved about 70 million years ago, much earlier than thought, a provocative new study suggests — so early that dinosaurs might have roamed near this natural wonder.

Using a new dating tool, a team of scientists came up with a different age for the western section of the gorge in the U.S. southwest, challenging conventional wisdom that much of the canyon was scoured by the mighty Colorado River in the last 5 million to 6 million years.

Not everyone is convinced with the latest viewpoint published online Thursday in the journal Science. Critics contend the study ignores a mountain of evidence pointing to a geologically young landscape and they have doubts about the technique used to date it.

The notion that the Grand Canyon existed during the dinosaur era is “ludicrous,’’ said geologist Karl Karlstrom of the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque.

How the Grand Canyon became grand — with its vertical cliffs and flat plateaus — has been debated since John Wesley Powell navigated the whitewater rapids and scouted the sheer walls during his famous 1869 expedition.

Some 5 million tourists flock to Arizona each year to marvel at the 277-mile-long chasm, which plunges a mile deep in some places. It’s a geologic layer cake with the most recent rock formations near the rim stacked on top of older rocks that date back 2 billion years.

Though the exposed rocks are ancient, most scientists believe the Grand Canyon itself was forged in the recent geologic past, created when tectonic forces uplifted the land that the Colorado River later carved through.

The new work by researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder and California Institute of Technology argued that canyon-cutting occurred long before that.

They focused on the western end of the Grand Canyon occupied today by the Hualapai Reservation, which owns the Skywalk attraction, a horseshoe-shaped glass bridge that extends from the canyon’s edge.

To come up with the age, the team crushed rocks collected from the bottom of the canyon to analyze a rare type of mineral called apatite.

The mineral contains traces of radioactive elements that release helium during decay, allowing researchers to calculate the passage of time since the canyon eroded.

Their interpretation: The western Grand Canyon is 70 million years old and was likely shaped by an ancient river that coursed in the opposite direction of the west-flowing Colorado.

Lead researcher Rebecca Flowers of the University of Colorado Boulder realizes not everyone will accept this alternative view, which minimizes the role of the Colorado River.

“Arguments will continue over the age of Grand Canyon, and I hope our study will stimulate more work to decipher the mysteries,’’ Flowers said in an email.

If the Grand Canyon truly existed before dinosaurs became extinct, it would have looked vastly different because the climate back then was more tropical. Dinosaurs that patrolled the American West then included smaller tyrannosaurs, horned and dome-headed dinosaurs and duckbills.

If they peered over the rim, it would not look like “the starkly beautiful desert of today, but an environment with more lush vegetation,’’ said University of Maryland paleontologist Thomas Holtz.

Researchers have long known about older canyons in the region cut by rivers that flow in a different direction than the Colorado River.

It’s possible that a good portion of the Grand Canyon was chiseled long ago by these smaller rivers and then the Colorado came along and finished the job, he said.

Photo of NYPD officer giving boots to homeless man sparks online sensation Associated Press

NEW YORK — A tourist’s snapshot of a New York City police officer giving new boots to a barefoot homeless man in Times Square has created an online sensation.

Jennifer Foster, of Arizona, was visiting New York with her husband on Nov. 14, when she came across the shoeless man asking for change in Times Square.

As she was about to approach him, she said the officer — identified as Larry DePrimo — came up to the man with a pair of all-weather boots and thermal socks on the frigid night. She recorded his generosity on her cellphone.

It was posted Tuesday night to the NYPD’s official Facebook page and became an instant hit. More than 325,000 users “liked’’ it as of Thursday morning, and over 79,000 shared it.

Thousands of people commented, including one person who praised him as “An officer AND a Gentleman.’’

The photo shows the officer kneeling beside the man with the boots at his feet. A shoe store is seen in the back-

for you, they are all-weather.

Let’s put them on and take care of you,’’’ Foster quoted DePrimo as saying to the homeless man. “The officer squatted down on the ground and proceeded to put socks and the new boots on this man. The officer expected NOTHING in return and did not know I was watching.’’

Foster said she’s worked in law enforcement for 17 years and has never been more impressed.

“His presentation of human kindness has not been lost on myself or any of the Arizona law enforcement officials with whom this story has been shared,’’ Foster wrote on Facebook. She said she never got the officer’s name.

DePrimo, who is assigned to the Sixth Precinct and lives on Long Island, told Newsday that the homeless man “smiled from ear to ear’’ after getting the boots.

“It was like you gave him a million dollars,’’ he added.

He told The New York Times that he keeps the receipt for the boots in his vest to remind him “that sometimes people have it worse.’’

UK media ethics report: Britain needs independent press regulator J i l l Law l e s s Associated Press

LONDON — A senior British judge concluded Thursday that the country needs a new, independent media regulator to eliminate a subculture of unethical behaviour that infected segments of the country’s press.

Lord Justice Brian Leveson says a new regulatory body should be established in law to prevent more people from being hurt by “press behaviour that, at times, can only be described as outrageous.’’

Leveson reported at the end of a yearlong ethics inquiry triggered by revelations of tabloid phone hacking. His proposals will likely be welcomed by victims of press intrusion and some politicians who want to see the country’s voracious reined in. But some editors and lawmakers fear any new regulator could curtail freedom of the press.

Prime Minister David Cameron set up the inquiry after revelations of illegal eavesdropping by Rupert Murdoch’s now-defunct News of the World tabloid sparked a criminal investigation and a wave of public revulsion.

Leveson criticized the cozy relationship between politicians, police and the press, but he insisted in his 2,000-page report that politicians and the government should play no role in regulating the press.

Parliament would have to approve any legal changes the report recommends, and Cameron is under intense pressure from both sides. He is also tainted by his own ties to prominent figures in the scandal.

It erupted in 2011 when it was revealed that the News of the World had eavesdropped on the mobile phone voicemails of slain schoolgirl Milly Dowler while police were searching for the 13-year-old.

Murdoch shut down the 168-year-old newspaper in July 2011. His U.K. newspaper company, News International, has paid millions in damages to dozens of hacking victims and faces lawsuits from dozens more.

Former Murdoch editors and journalists subsequently charged with phone hacking, police bribery or other wrongdoing include Cameron’s former spokesman, Andy Coulson, and ex-News of the World editor Rebekah Brooks, a friend of the prime minister.

Coulson and Brooks were appearing in court Thursday on charges of paying public officials for information.

Cameron, who received a copy of Leveson’s report a day early, is due to make a statement about it in the House of Commons later Thursday.

He and other senior politicians insist they will not curb Britain’s long tradition of free speech.

Ten Reasons to Advertise on a Newspaper Website 1. Frequency: The online newspaper Web site user accesses the Internet almost twice as much as the general user.

extends to the advertiser. Fifty-nine percent of Web users agree that online advertising is more believable from a trusted Web site. Online, newspaper Web sites are the dominant local media site in most markets.

3. Targeted: If you want to focus on a particular backyard, advertising in an online newspaper is more personal, and more relevant because it is local.

Newspapers also publish a plethora of niche sites (youth, women, movie fans, seniors, are illustrative) for virtually any demographic advertisers could possibly hope to reach.

4. Purchasing power: Sixty-two percent of newspaper

Web site users purchase online compared with 49 percent of general users. Thirty-nine percent of online newspaper users have incomes higher than $75,000; 65 percent own their homes. Fifty percent of online newspaper users have spent more than $500 online in the last six months, and 63 percent of online newspaper users prefer to find out about new products through the Internet.

5. Content: After e-mail, the most preferred Web

content is news, sports, financial information, entertainment news, and shopping â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in that order. Sixtytwo percent of Internet users visit online newspapers for local news, compared with 39 percent for the local TV station Web site and 23 percent for the local radio station site. Not even Yahoo! or AOLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Digital City can top this.

6. Retailers prefer newspaper sites: Sixty-five percent of retailers report that newspaper sites are efficient in assisting them in meeting marketing needs compared with other sites.

7. High profile: Research.net reports that, among top executives (CEO, CIO, CFO or owner/partner), Internet advertising ranked above over all other media measured for: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where I prefer to find our about new products,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where I prefer to receive information about companies,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Where modern, up-to-date brands advertise.â&#x20AC;? At the same time, these early adopters of technology also skew younger than the traditional newspaper audience.

Forty percent of online newspaper users are aged 18-35.

8. Reinforcement: Seventy-six percent of online newspaper users also read the newspaper in the past seven days, and repetition increases awareness. The Internet Advertising Bureau found that, by increasing the number of online banners from one to two per week, branding results on three key metrics increased 42 percent making online a great, inexpensive way to increase the branding lift of traditional campaigns.

9. Quality: Seventy-five percent of advertisers generally said newspaper Web sitesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; advertising was as good or better than other Internet sites.

10. Mix: A variety of recent studies have demonstrated the power of online, when included in a mix with traditional media, to elaborate the brand message.

Newspaper print and online products combined have the highest penetration and most desirable audience of any other local medium.
