Holiday weekend

Fun all around

No excuse to stay home this holiday weekend C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

It’s shaping up to be quite a weekend and New Years Eve at the Kimberley Alpine Resort as most accommodators are booked solid for the last few days of the holiday season.

And there are plenty of fun activities all over town as well.

Up at the Resort, night skiing is underway; there’s a kid’s rail jam planned for Sunday and there are all kinds of New Year’s Eve activities on the slate.

To prepare for the Rail Jam, hit the Rail Park this Friday night from 6 to 8 p.m. to learn to safely master some of the rails and features. These sessions will be ongoing all season.

Then on Sunday, the rail jam is on from 2 to 3:30 p.m. at the Rail Park Register 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the tent

by the Quad Late Registration from 1 to 2 p.m. at the Rail Park This event will be for children ages 4-12. There will be age divisions based on registrations. Prizes will be awarded. The focus will be on fun and safety. This is a perfect event for beginners and novices. All entrants will need a Park Pass to participate.

There will be live music at the Stemwinder all weekend.

On Saturday, don’t forget the annual Turkey Run-Off at the Lois Creek Trails. The mass start is at noon at the Trail Street trail entrance.

On New Year’s Eve itself, Kimberley will be hopping. There’s New Year’s Eve at the Marysville Pub. This event, featuring the music of the Hollers, is already sold out. The Elk’s Club is also throwing a New Year’s Eve dinner and dance, with music by 60 Hertz. The Edge Pub also has a New Years Eve party planned, with DJ music from Jeremy C and no cover charge.

Year in review C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

May A group visited Kimberley City Council to propose that a water feature be added to the flume rebuild, which will create pools and waves for whitewater enjoyment. The pools will have the added benefit of providing fish habitat and being compatible with flood control technology. Council, while interested in the concept, told the group that any funds for this water feature would not come from the City, as public safety was their only priority in the flume rebuild.

One of the mountain caribou transported from Dease Lake to the East Kootenay wandered across the line and ended up in Montana where it was located by Fish, Wildlife and Parks biologists after a mortality signal was received from its collar. It turned out the animal was not deceased but suffering from tick paralysis. After treatment, it was returned to Canada.

BC Hydro has been given another year to finish installing smart meters in homes and businesses across the province.

Hydro has installed 93 per cent, or 1.73 million of the devices, but needs more time to complete the work, so the provincial government has extended the deadline for installation from the end of this year to the end of 2013.

The government says Hydro wasn’t able to do all the work before the original deadline because of labour and equipment shortages, plus concerns raised by customers.

Some people have refused to have smart meters installed over worries about the possible danger of high frequency radio waves, which the meters use to wirelessly transmit data to Hydro computers.

Hydro says smart meters will save money, help people conserve power and automatically report power outages, but many people who’ve already had the meters installed say they’ve been billed incorrectly for their power usage.

“I have always hidden my teeth for pictures because my teeth are crooked.”

A mild earthquake rattled parts of B.C.’s south coast late Wednesday night.

Natural Resources Canada says the 3.3 magnitude shaker occurred at 10:36 p.m. PST on Boxing Day. It was centred 13 kilometres east of Sidney, northeast of Victoria.

Officials say there are no reports of damage and none would be expected.

Greater Victoria, Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley residents say they felt the shaker.

Kimberley City Council was not happy with the lack of employment services in the city since Alpine Employment was closed. The employment agency closed earlier last spring as the provincial government re-aligned the delivery of employment services. Council was told that the Library was seeing an increase in visits by people seeking employment services and did not have the staff or budget to deal with them.

Two bears, a sow and a cub, were put down after returning again and again to the Morrison Sub. Wildlife Aware’s Shaunna McInnis said that she was told that people in a rental house were handfeeding the bears and giving them alcohol.

Tickets to Bob Dylan’s only B.C. concert sold out in record time in Cranbrook at the end of June. The original 3,200 ticket release was all sold by 3 p.m. Event organizers released another 250 seats after adjusting sight lines to the stage, and those were gone by 4:30 p.m.

July

Wasa went through its own flooding troubles in early July as water levels in the Kootenay River and Wasa Lake proved too much for culverts and trenches to deal with. Water levels remained high for a week and the lake was closed for swim-

ming as Interior Health tested the water for safety.

Council pondered the effectiveness and necessity for Kimberley’s Cosmetic Pesticide bylaw, and it was decided a survey of residents would be sent out so the new Council could get a better feel for how people felt about it.

Four people were killed in July when debris cascaded down a mountain side burying homes and property in the remote community of Johnson’s Landing, 117 kilometres east of Kelowna.

A few days later on July 15, Fairmont had a slide of its own. A major debris slide from a blocked Fairmont Creek sent boulders, trees and mud through neighbourhoods in Fairmont.

Approximately 600 campers in the campground at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort were stranded when the water and debris tore out the access bridge between the resort and campground.

A huge wind storm swept through the Cranbrook Kimberley area on Friday, July 20, downing trees, hydro poles, damaging homes and cars. It left thousands without power.

And it hit the JulyFest bocce pits just as they were filling up for the weekend events.

Party time And up on the hill, the Kimberley Alpine Resort has something for any age, beginning with fireworks from 7:30 to 9 p.m. the fireworks are brought to you

by Kimberley Alpine Resort, Tourism Kimberley, Kimberley Snowmobile, Mountain Spirit Resort and Rocky’s Ski & Snowboard.

After the fireworks, it’s your choice for New Years Eve fun. There is a gala at the Stemwinder (adults only) with entertainment by New Moon, a late night pizza buffet and more. There is also a Family Fun New Years Eve party with live DJ music (DJ Peter Parker & The Reece Master) and skating and bonfire party from 7 to 10 p.m. as well. And of course, night skiing will be ongoing as well.

As for conditions, the North Star high speed quad, Easter chair, Tamarack chair, Owl T-Bar and Magic carpet are all open.

And don’t forget the Nordic Trails are in great shape as well.

Year in review, part III From Page 3 There were hundreds of people at the Rotary Drive bocce pits at the time, as JulyFest 2012 was just getting started. People ran for cover from high winds and driving rains, while merchants and musicians struggled to hold down their tents.

The bocce pits, JulyFest central, were one of the areas to lose power, and bocce was shut down for the evening.

August

A new mini golf course was opened at the Riverside Campground in early August.

The project had been in the works for about four years and is a unique feature, more of a miniature 18 hole golf course than a mini putt.

The Grey Creek Pas between Kimberley and Kootenay Lake was closed for the summer of 2012 and a group led by Tom Lymberry of the Kootenay Lake Chamber of Commerce began lobbying for funds so it could

re-open. The problem was slides on the Kimberley side and with so many slides around the province, there was not enough funding readily available to fix it.

Doug Clovechok from the Columbia Valley was officially declared as the BC Liberal candidate for Columbia River Revelstoke. He will run against incumbent Norm Macdonald (NDP).

At their regular meeting on Monday evening, August 13, 2012, Kimberley City Council received a report from the Urban Deer Advisory Committee entitled ‘Managing for the Future’.

Written by Urban Deer Advisory Committee Chair Gary Glinz, the report was complex, detailed and laid out a number of recommendations for managing Kimberley’s urban deer population.

Beale Avenue residents presented Kimberley City Council with a petition against

the Legion’s Dominion Command stepped in with an official apology.

The original newsletter contained a joke about two men shooting and killing two “Indians”.

The City of Kimberley put out a Request For Proposals seeking a company or individual to take on the task of telling Kimberley’s story, defining who we are as a City, and how to market that to the region, province, country and even world.

Cranbrook Search and Rescue urged residents to be more prepared and equipped properly before heading out after two rescues on Fisher Peak. In both incidents, hikers were not prepared for a night on the mountain when they became lost.

Citing a difficult economy and unpredictable weather, organizers of the Bootleg Sled Dog Races called them off permanently.

the planned closure of the St. Mary Avenue bridge —a part of the Mark Creek Flume project. Residents were concerned about the difficult intersection at the top of Leadenhall Street being the only access in and out of their neighbourhood.

The Kimberley Food Bank also expressed concerns about congestion and unloading food trucks.

A BC Forest Services air response was called in on August 15 to fight a blaze on a steep slope which ignited due to a multi-structure fire just one kilometre out of City of Kimberley limits. The fire began in the attic of one of the buildings, and occupants were able to get some valuables out before the buildings were fully engulfed.

Kimberley Fire Department could not respond as the fire was just out of their jurisdiction.

The Cranbrook Legion had to reprint its August branch newsletter after a joke offended readers. And

The Kimberley & District Community Foundation recently passed along the annual grant from the Bill Motek Memorial Fund to the Pines Memorial and Development Society. Shown here, Michelle Lemay from the KDCF (second from left) hands a cheque for just over $2600 to Beverley Banks with other Pines directors Sever Rondestevedt and Judy Caron looking on. The grant will be used to improve the outdoor patio space at the Kimberley Special Care Home to make it safer and more useable by residents.

Christmas is done - now what?

N

ow what? Christmas is over. The jolly, rotund, red–suited one from the North Pole is back home, snoozing in front of the fire, savouring time off after another busy year. Perhaps he sips slowly from a drink. His suit has been to the cleaners, and now it hangs ready for next year.

Maybe he has given his elves the week off. Hmmm …

I wonder what kind of employment standards they have at the North Pole.

In our homes, the tree (if you still use a real tree for Christmas) is beginning to look a little bedraggled. The tinsel droops; a few ornaments have fallen off and lay scattered amid the fallen needles on the floor around the tree holder. Here and there, a few bits of wrapping paper rest, reminding us that once they held something of promise.

The chocolate boxes are mostly empty. A few leftover bits of turkey linger in the fridge, waiting to be finished off. After a few days of eating them, you are beginning to wonder why you ever thought you liked turkey leftovers.

Outside the back door, garbage bags filled with gift wrap and cardboard boxes wait. They are a silent reminder that you still need to take them to the recycling bins. Even thinking about doing that just tires you out.

And, of course, it will soon be time to pack away the decorations for next year’s festivity.

You’ve looked at the gifts you received and put them away. You may have already used the gift cards in the after–Christmas frenzy in the mall, or it sits quietly in your wallet, waiting to be used for that special item. Maybe

Rev. Yme Woensdregt

when the stores are not so busy …

Now what? Is that all there is?

Well … yeah. Really, that’s it. It was fun while it lasted, but now it’s time to get back to life. The Santa story doesn’t really last beyond the day.

And what about this story of a manger … is it like the other? Do the shepherds go back to their fields, going on with life as if everything else had never happened? Do the magi retrace their steps to their Eastern country? Do Mary and Joseph return to Nazareth with their bundled up baby boy?

Well … yes and no.

Yes, we do go back to our everyday lives, to our normal routines and work and school and leisure activities.

Everything goes back to normal, and part of us breathes a sigh of relief. We couldn’t handle this level of festivity on a regular basis.

But more importantly, this story changes something in us. It changes our lives and our world. Whenever and wherever the Christ is born in us and among us, it changes who we are, it changes our loyalties and our priorities, it changes the way we look at life.

The birth of Jesus in the world is partly the story of two kingdoms which are in conflict with each other.

About 25 years before the birth of Christ, Caesar proclaimed himself emperor of the Roman Empire. He announced that he had brought

peace and justice to the whole world, and named himself Saviour and Son of God. He demanded to be worshipped as Lord of all.

About 40 years later, in a little backwater town in a troublesome little province of the empire, a boy was born. As Luke tells the story, he uses the same titles Caesar had taken for himself. He did so deliberately. Luke declared that this child is the true Saviour, the real Lord: “to you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, who is … the Lord.” And this angel is joined by a choir which sings of the “peace on earth” which is wrought by this Lord.

In a generation, this humble peasant child would be hailed as “son of God”, “Saviour of the world”. People would follow him and call him “Lord”. They would come to believe that with this child’s arrival, true jus-

tice and peace was brought to the world.

This is part of the change wrought by this story. Where are you going to see your lord? In the peace which Caesar brought through military might and violence? Or in this Galilean Jewish peasant who brought peace through love and compassion?

Who would have known that God would come to earth and become vulnerable?

To understand this, it seems to me, has huge implications for how we live.

That’s where the change comes in the way we conduct ourselves. God bless you as you live out the love and vulnerability of this wonderful story.

Ermahgerd! Here are the top words of 2012

Misty Harris Postmedia News

For those who know fracking from Frankenstorm, Eastwooding from ermahgerd, the American Dialect Society’s annual vote for Word of the Year is serious business — as serious as something can be, anyway, when it’s likened by its creators to a linguistic goat rodeo.

Unlike last year’s winner, “occupy,” voters will enter deliberations on Jan. 4 with no clear front runner. And that’s not because there were no star words in 2012 but rather because there were so many — scenario that makes

this year’s list of nominees the language equivalent of a Garry Marshall movie.

Ben Zimmer, chair of the ADS’s new words committee, has personally shortlisted “Eastwooding” (a photo meme in which people address empty chairs, a la Clint Eastwood at the Republican National Convention); “fiscal cliff” (popularized by the U.S. Federal Reserve chairman); “Frankenstorm” (the initial moniker for superstorm Sandy); and “hate-watching” (tuning in to a declining TV show to tear it apart).

Among Zimmer’s “sentimental favour-

ites” is “mansplaining,” which caught fire in 2012 as a satirical descriptive for male politicians’ explanations of women’s issues.

“The whole idea of men feeling the need to explain things to women when they don’t really require explanation is definitely not new,” he says, laughing. “But the fact that this term emerged, and can be pegged as a sociological phenomenon, is great because everyone can identify with it.”

Lexicographer Grant Barrett, co-host of the public radio show A Way with Words, says the majority of 2012’s

stickiest words were related to the American election. But two of his favourites were without strong political ties: “fracking” and “YOLO.” “The reason fracking came to the surface — no pun intended — is that we’re starting to see health effects of this style of extracting petroleum, where there are now chemicals leaking into water supplies,” says Barrett. “It demonstrates that the Word of the Year doesn’t have to be brand new; it has to be newly important.”

As for YOLO, which was popularized by Canadian rapper Drake, Barrett likes it for simi-

larly symbolic reasons.

“It stands in for this incredible source of new language, which is young people ... They’re looking for identity, they’re looking for group cohesion, and part of this process is the language they create and share,” he says.”

YOLO is a modern-day carpe diem. It’s past its prime now but it did its job.”

This year’s nomination from Mark Peters, language columnist for Visual Thesaurus, is “gluten-free,” a word he describes as “not new, but it’s taking over the world.”

Youth stand out in Kootenay Literary Competition Julia Gillmor

It’s not news the Kootenays is a hot bed for literary talent.

From Angie Abdou to Anne Degrace to Tom Wayman to Rita Moir, the list is long and impressive and growing. We’ve always been known as a hub for the arts but sometimes among the festivals and the revelling, the vibrant literary arts community gets overlooked. Then entered, the Kootenay Literary Competition.

Wrapping up its third year, the competition saw its highest number of participants to date and an unprecedented turn out in the youth categories.

As head of the English department at L.V. Rogers second-

ary school in Nelson and a board member for the Kootenay Literary Competition, Kari Kroker was thrilled with numbers.

Schools teach creative writing and English literature, but Kroker feels it’s not enough.

“We have to move beyond just our school and [the Kootenay Literary Competition] is an excellent vehicle to do it. It’s giving kids what they need.”

Writing is generally a solitary act and as such Kroker sees the the importance of mentorship and benefit of a supportive community.

“It can be the community that leads and pushes you forward. That is a huge part of

what KLC offers.”

She said there was equally strong representation throughout the region.

In the fall, youth writing workshops were hosted around the region which helped to promote the contest and offer skills and feedback to participants.

“Kids love the big ideas, they love to give and they love to learn. It bothers me when we diminish their ability, we should expect more from them,” says Kroker.

“I see a lot of writing that is extremely personal which is a great starting place. But there is so much value in listening to the voices of people that are older than you.”

Kroker’s focus is to get youth to look outward and forward, exploring the big ideas for themselves.

The Kootenay Literary Competition will be announcing another youth workshop in the spring to be lead by Fernie author Angie Abdou. Details about the workshop will be posted online at kootenaylitcomp.com.

The site will also have information about the Kootenay Literary Competition awards night on January 18 with special guests Sandra D and Lucas Myers and story excerpts to be read by the contest winners.

The time and location have yet to be announced.

scribe Marty Chan proposes three contenders for Word of the Year: “hate-watching,” “Ikea monkey” and “ermahgerd,” the latter of which was central to an online meme in which a young woman flaunted her

Goosebumps novels.

“Ermahgerd (a lisped pronunciation of ‘oh my God’) proves that children’s writers inspire the coolest words,” says Chan, author of Barnabas Bigfoot: A Hairy Tangle.

LETTERS to the EDITOR

In praise of transit

If the city cuts back our transit system, it would be a hardship for me and for many people. As a senior, I use it every day. It’s my only way to get groceries and keep appointments. Some days I use it two or three times a day.

The buses get us to our destination even when the roads aren’t plowed in winter or dug up in summer. Then there are the students who come here. They don’t know the city but the drivers are patient with them, and soon they get to know the city as well as we do. The buses are also equipped to get the handicapped to where they need to go.

Lastly, I am disappointed the drivers weren’t thanked publicly for donating their time to drive the seniors around to see the Christmas lights. They all have families, too, yet they’ve been doing it for years.

Let’s get behind our transit system, and fight to keep it as it is.

Barbara Holmberg Cranbrook

NDP and Jumbo Anyone who cares about honesty in public officials should take offence from the bald-faced assertion by NDP MLA Mungall in your December 3rd Townsman that the NDP have opposed the Jumbo Glacier Resort project “for 20 years,” a statement she is reported in your article to have made to a public gathering of First Nations people and project oppo-

nents in Cranbrook.

Her assertion is demonstrably false and leads one to question whether the NDP have any respect for the intelligence of individual voters.

The truth? NDP Premier Mike Harcourt said in writing that the NDP government recognized the benefits of this project and he actually promoted the project in Europe.

In addition, soon to be Premier, Minister of Employment and Investment, Glen Clark, stood in the BC Legislature and explained that, “the East Kootenay Landuse Plan includes Jumbo Valley within the special resource management zone categtory, a designation which allows [resort development] to be considered.”

Furthermore, the NDP government of the day signed a legal Agreement with the proponent in March 1993, selecting Glacier resorts Ltd as the sole proponent providing exclusive development rights.

Anyone who is thinking the NDP may have changed, ought to be concerned at how casually they stand up in a public gathering and deliberately mislead the public.

As for First Nations, the Shuswap Indian Band, the closest First Nation to the project, are long-time supporters and expect to be involved in creating new jobs and economic opportunities for their people.

All of what I have said here is true and factual, whether you personally support the project or not. The JGR project is not about politics or the environment. It is about allowing the very careful, conservative use one of the thousands of valleys in

BC, a valley that has been logged, mined, hunted and hiked for decades, to create an iconic attraction for our region, a modest-sized, green all seasons resort, that will assist in building a stronger economy for us and our children.

Bill Bennett MLA, Kootenay East

Post-accident help

On the morning of December 19, my six months pregnant niece and her husband and four-year-old daughter had an accident near Canal Flats, when they collided with a runaway elk.

They were transported to Cranbrook Hospital and were checked out and released. On their release they were given by the hospital a voucher for a one night stay at the Sandman Inn. I would like to thank the Sandman Inn for this program. You truly need to be commended for it. This family was on their way home to Nelson when they had this accident and had little money in which to get there.

You made their stay stress free for which we are all grateful.

Thanks also to the paramedics and RCMP who treated them so well. They are now safe at home in Nelson and all are doing well.

Kudos to you all and Thanks a million.

Merry Christmas to you all and may God bless you all.

The ice cometh, Man JANUS: Cranbrook Then & Now

I

ce. It is merely stating the obvious to say that this time of year ice is everywhere. That is as it should be.

On the other hand, in the other part of the year, in the other part of the year in the earlier days of the city, in the hot, dry part of the year, ice was a necessity in ensuring a satisfactory quality of life. And therein lies the rub. When you don’t need ice you have plenty of it and when you do need it ... it’s gone.

As to its importance, here’s a question: Name one of the largest buildings in Cranbrook; let’s say from the early 1900s to the 1970s. If you guessed the CPR icehouse you are correct.

The CPR’s original icehouse was large. The replacement constructed in 1909 was larger and the replacement’s replacement, built just to the west of the CPR station in 1920, was very large indeed, one of the largest in the interior. The timber structure stood approximately 30 feet high by 45 feet wide by 140 feet long. It was big because it had to hold 3,000 tons (6,000,000 pounds) of ice. To draw a page from Cranbrook history that is the equivalent of 600 elephants, more or less, all standing on each other’s shoulders in the CPR yard icehouse, an icehouse meant to store ice from Moyie Lake, or McKenzie

Pond (now McKenzie Puddle) or the old city reservoir (Idlewild) or Crow’s Nest and other lakes in Alberta.

That was just the ice for the CPR mind you; ice for the galleys and the refrigerated fruit and vegetable cars and later the air-conditioned passenger cars.

Cranbrook needed much more ice than that. The hotels, pubs, meat markets and grocery stores all had their own icehouses. Icemen delivered daily to homes if required.

Pure, clear blocks of ice in any quantity suitable for iceboxes (the precursor of refrigerators).

Obtaining the ice in the first place took a great deal of manpower and energy, often 20–30 men working weeks at a time beginning in January or February. Teams of horses pulled wooden scrapers over the frozen lake to clear off the snow. A “shine sled” made sure the surface was clear of any of the horse droppings left behind, sometimes swiping the surface with formaldehyde for good measure. Holes were then drilled through the ice at intervals to indicate where cuts should be made and a guide-plank employed allowing a saw to make a shallow cut along the entire field.

Horse drawn cutters deepened the cut and handsaws finished the job.

The chunks of ice were then floated to the loading area, placed on wagons (or trucks or boxcars) and hauled to the icehouse. Uniform blocks made storage much easier but the ice could easily vary from a thickness of 10–35

inches. That is, unless you were the Cranbrook Butter Co. who, in 1917, layered water in their icehouse to form one giant ice cube. Not so large an ice cube, however, as the one created in October, 1934, when the big CPR ice house burned to the ground. It was one-third full at the time (about 200 elephants, though none were hurt) and the result was a very large, autumnal iceberg which took a number of men a number of days to remove in order to rebuild a similar icehouse on the same spot (which was still in place in the 1970s).

In its ice heyday Cranbrook was capable of using 10,000 tons during the year, as estimated by W.E. “Pop” Worden, owner of the Cartage and Transfer Co., who for decades ruled as the Chief Ice Harvester of Cranbrook, along with sand, gravel, furniture and pianos. Pianos are mentioned because, in 1938, if you wanted to buy a Frigidaire refrigerator to replace the old icebox, you went to the Cranbrook Music Store to purchase it, but that’s neither here nor there, nor anywhere now.

Ice had its dangers of course. In 1932 Charlie Barnhardt was pretty badly injured when a block of ice slipped (not surprisingly) and struck him a solid blow on the noggin. He recovered nicely. Not so for Herbert George who, in January, 1927, slipped (not surprisingly) on an icy slope near the King Street railway crossing and cracked his head on the ice. Somewhat shaken he managed to walk home, attend a New Year’s Dance

and visit the Little Davenport Café where he collapsed, dying a few hours later from a brain hemorrhage.

Surprisingly, there are few other recorded injuries directly attributed to ice, except of course for hundreds of accidents due to icy road conditions and, well, the Titanic of course.

Ice can be fun, as any skater knows. In the early days Elizabeth Lake was the place to be on a winter’s afternoon.

Late November would see upwards of 400 people gliding across the pond. The first local ice carnival occurred at the Arena Rink in Rotary Park in January, 1910. It was a masquerade featuring the winning costumes “Joan of Arc” (ironically, considering her death), “Grandma”, “The Gold Dust Twins” and “Zulu” (perhaps not the wisest winter costume). This, in turn, led to a plethora of Ice Carnivals, Festivals, Galas, Follies and Capades, not to mention our own Kootenay Ice hockey team.

Ice can sometimes be scientific, as in the 1907 local ad for Maycock’s patent refrigerator which “prevented sweating and dropping in the provision box” because no-one wants that, that’s for sure.

It can also be cryptic, vis-avis the 1923 classified ad from a local real estate firm stating “For Sale: Large-sized refrigerator suitable for small town.”

As it is, this whole subject is becoming a little slippery so perhaps it’s best to just put it on ice. janusthenandnow@shaw.ca

McGill sees improvement as Ice return to action TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Christmas break is officially over.

The Kootenay Ice were back in action at Western Financial Place on Thursday, suiting up for their first practice to kick off the second half of the WHL season, starting with a home and home series against the Spokane Chiefs this weekend.

Their record of 1023-1-0 isn’t enviable, nor their second-lowest spot in league standings, but they’ve also had to battle with a lot of adversity as well.

The biggest challenge facing the team this year, without a doubt, is their youth.

The team has two 16-year-olds and seven 17-year-olds, which is the youngest roster in the league, when all the others are added in.

Head coach Ryan McGill said there are a few things to take into consideration when reviewing the first half of the season.

“I think expectations-wise, from certain individual players, I think haven’t met expectations,” McGill said, “but at the same time, maybe some of those expectations were too

high.”

Pause.

“But I don’t like to say that, because if you don’t have high expectations, you’re not a motivated person,” McGill added.

“As far as the record goes, I think you have to look at this team on an individual basis and make sure that each individual is getting better on a daily basis and I think for the most part they are, its just it’s been real small steps.”

Ryan McGill “…As far as the record goes, I think you have to look at this team on an individual basis and make sure that each individual is getting better on a daily basis and I think for the most part they are, it’s just its been real small steps.”

A part of the young makeup of the team includes the goalie tandem of Mackenzie Skapski and Wyatt Hoflin; the

former struggling to establish himself as a starting goaltender in the league after his rookie season last year.

Skapski, 18, has had a roller coaster ride, earning three consecutive wins in the beginning of November and capturing the CHL goaltender of the week award, but struggled in an ensuing road trip to the U.S. “I think both our goaltenders will tell you that they’re very disappointed in the first half, but I think we’ve seen signs from Mackenzie that the second half is probably going to be a real good year for him,” said McGill. “That’s a good thing.

“For Wyatt, he knows he has to develop some consistency, he’s starting to develop that in practice and he needs to translate that from practice into games and he understands that.”

However, it’s not fair to lay the team’s struggles at the feet of goaltending—their overall youth shows in their defence and forward corps as well.

A part of that inexperience also stems from the departure of team captain Drew Czerwonka and sophomore defenceman Spencer

Wand.

Czerwonka, who would have played his fifth season in the WHL with the Ice, retired after the team had traded away their remaining overage players in Dylen McKinlay (Kelowna) and Elgin Pearce (Medicine Hat).

Czerwonka and Wand left at different

times in the season, citing they’d lost the desire to play.

Czerwonka’s departure, as a 20-year-old and team captain, left a big leadership hole inside the dressing room, while Wand’s exit deprived the back end of an experienced defenceman who was on the radar of the NHL’s

Central Scouting rankings.

Those absences, along with a few injuries to key players over the first half of the season, have given the coaching staff an insight into who has the maturity and capability of stepping up into expanded roles.

“We’ve had some injuries to some real key

players and that in itself is a good thing—I know it’s frustrating at times, but it’s a good thing because now we have to see whether some players can sink or swim,” said McGill. “Some of them have done a pretty good job, and some others will get better at the ice time that they’ve been given.”

Kletzel adjusting to WHL level of play TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Not only are the Ice struggling with a young roster this year, they’re dealing with a new coaching staff.

Well, sort of new, at least.

McGill is back in his second tenure as head coach, after spending some time manning the bench in professional hockey in the AHL and the NHL. Running the show alongside McGill is a familiar face in Chad Kletzel, who played under his boss in 1996/97 when the Ice still called Edmonton home.

It is Kletzel’s first season coaching in the WHL, coming in from Alberta, where he coached with the Lethbridge Athletic Association by lead-

ing the Midget AAA team.

“I think there’s a lot of learning moments and time to evaluate different guys at different times and see what the league’s all about.

Chad Kletzel “Obviously it’s a well-respected league with lots of high-end coaching and teams doing things at a higher level than where I came from.”

Kletzel, like fellow assistant Jerry Bancks and his predecessor Todd Johnson, is a teacher by

trade and holds an education degree from the University of Lethbridge.

Working alongside McGill, who has played and coached professional hockey, has given Kletzel opportunities to learn the little things that can make a difference at the highest levels.

“A lot of positional play stuff and just within systems,” Kletzel said, on what he’s picked up while working alongside McGill. “How to change and manipulate those systems to do different things. Not making big adjustments, just small adjustments all the time, during games.”

It’s been a baptism by fire for both McGill and Kletzel this season, who are part of a coaching changeover (save Bancks) that is working

with the youngest roster in the WHL. McGill said the two tackled everything together at the beginning of the season, which has enabled them to delegate responsibilities more effectively down the stretch.

“It’s been one of those transitions where he kind of knows now what I’m looking for and what we need to do as a group,” said McGill. “I think that the delegation part has been good for the last three weeks to a month, where we’re both on the same page. “…He’s got a real good demeanour with the kids, he’s very patient with them. He really is an intense person, but doesn’t outwardly show it, and that’s a good thing.”

Brooklyn Nets fire coach Avery Johnson BRIAN MAHONEY Associated Press

NEW YORK—Coach of the month in November, out of a job by New Year’s.

The Brooklyn Nets have elevated expectations this season, and a .500 record wasn’t good

enough. Coach Avery Johnson was fired Thursday, his team having lost 10 of 13 games after a strong start to its first season in Brooklyn.

“We don’t have the same fire now than we did when we were 11-4,’’ general manager Billy

King said at a news conference in East Rutherford, N.J. “I tried to talk to Avery about it and we just can’t figure it out.

The same pattern kept on happening.’’

Assistant P.J. Carlesimo will coach the Nets on an interim basis, starting with Friday’s home game against Charlotte. King said the Nets may reach out to other candidates, but for now the job was

Carlesimo’s. The GM wouldn’t comment on a report that the team planned to get in touch with former Lakers coach Phil Jackson.

King said the decision to dismiss Johnson was made by ownership after a phone discussion Thursday morning.

Owner Mikhail Prokhorov had expressed faith in Johnson before the season.

“With the direction

we were going we felt we had to make a change,’’ King said.

The Nets have fallen well behind the firstplace New York Knicks, the team they so badly want to compete with in their new home. But after beating the Knicks in their first meeting Nov. 26, probably the high point of Johnson’s tenure, the Nets went 5-10 and frustrations have been mounting.

Canadians bounce back in Spengler Cup C ANADIAN PRESS

DAVOS, Switzerland —Byron Ritchie scored two second-period goals to lead Canada to a convincing 5-0 win over HC Davos in Spengler Cup action Thursday.

Canada (1-1) took better advantage of its offensive chances in this

contest against the defending tournament champion than it did in its opener, a stunning 2-1 overtime loss to German side Adler Mannheim.

In the other game Thursday, Salavat Yulaev Ufa edged HC Vitkovice Steel 5-4 in over-

time.

John Tavares, Ryan Smyth and Jason Williams had the other goals for Canada, whose roster is loaded with such NHLers as Tavares, Smyth, Jason Spezza, Sam Gagner, Matt Duchene and Jason Demers.

Soccer’s Sinclair earns female athlete of the year award Lori E wing Canadian Press

TORONTO—Little about Christine Sinclair’s brilliant performance at the London Olympics came as a surprise to her teammates.

But it allowed the rest of the world to finally see the captain they all know so well.

The 29-year-old star of Canada’s women’s soccer team lifted her squad to a bronze medal at last summer’s Olympics, Canada’s first medal in a traditional team sport since 1936. The result firmly entrenched her as a Canadian sports hero and brought global acclaim to a player who has been among the best women on the planet for years.

It also capped a tremendous season that earned the Burnaby, B.C., native the Bobbie Rosenfeld Award as The Canadian Press female athlete of 2012.

“She’s always been one of the best in the world, she’s always been fantastic, and what’s

great about this year is that the world got to see her at the highest stage _ Olympics,’’ said Canada’s veteran goalkeeper Karina LeBlanc. ``The world was watching, and she showed what we’ve all known for so long.

“People are starting to see all sides of her — her funny side and her humble side. She’s a phenomenal athlete. And she believes so much. Playing for Canada is such an honour, and she shows that in the way she plays.

She doesn’t go out there and talk the talk. . . She shows it in the most beautiful way.’’

Sinclair earned 269 points, including the majority of first-place votes (84), to run away with the award, which is determined through balloting among sports editors and broadcasters across the country.

Olympic trampoline champion Rosie MacLennan was second with 118 points ahead of speedskater Christine Nesbitt (76), tennis player Eugenie Bouchard

(30) and hockey player Caroline Ouellette (27).

“It’s a huge honour,’’ Sinclair said, but then deflected praise to her teammates as deftly as she delivers a pass.

“I’m proud of our team. We had a goal this year heading into the Olympics and that was to bring home a medal, and

we accomplished that and just to sort of see the way Canada fell in love with our team, it’s been very remarkable.’’

Sinclair, who has won nearly every athlete of the year award in Canada this month, led her team to bronze in London in spectacular fashion, scoring an Olympic-re-

cord six goals to win the Golden Boot. Sinclair recorded a hat trick in a controversial 4-3 extra-time semifinal loss to the U.S., and then lashed out at the officiating, which seemed to endear her even more to frustrated fans watching back home.

“Christine Sinclair is

Canada’s best soccer player,’’ said Phil Andrews of the Guelph Mercury. “What a passionate leader. What a clutch performer. What an inspiration to the thousands of youths playing soccer in Canada and dreaming of being a star at an international level. She was the biggest story at the Olympics for Canada this year.’’

Cyclist Ryder Hesjedal of Victoria won the Lionel Conacher Award as Canada’s male athlete of the year Wednesday.

Sinclair scored a Canadian-record 23 goals in 2012, and added six assists, meaning she contributed to 65.9 per cent of her team’s scoring in 2012. Her 143 career international goals rank third all-time.

The season was a remarkable turnaround for the five-foot-nine player with the sweet scoring touch. Only a year earlier, Canada was ousted in the preliminary round of the women’s World Cup. Coach John Herdman, hired to pick up the

pieces after their heartbreaking World Cup result, used a photo of Canada’s disconsolate captain, head in hands, her face contorted in despair and dashed hopes, as motivation for his players heading into London.

“When you look at Christine’s face in that picture, it wasn’t just disappointment, it was frustration, it was anguish, it was guilt, it was a little bit of shame as well,’’ said Herdman. ``I told them, ‘I never want to see a player with this sort of talent with this sort of love for the game feeling like this after any game they play for Canada.’”

He’s since added a much happier photo of a crying Sinclair on her knees on the pitch, her arms raised in jubilation after Canada’s bronze-medal victory over France.

“I emailed that around the team and I said, ‘I think we promised we’d make Sincy cry, and this time for the right reasons,’ ‘’ Herdman said.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could find yourself on both the giving and receiving end of a surprise. On some level, you might feel as if you must answer to someone; on the other hand, you also recognize your own needs. A partner might be difficult when it comes to financial matters. Tonight: Flex.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

Keep conversations moving, especially if you think there is an underlying problem. Yes, you eventually will have to deal with this issue, but the timing is off right now. Realize that many people are off-kilter. Tonight: Hang out with a loved one.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Know what is going on behind the scenes. You might find that you’re not ready to deal with all of the consequences involved with a partnership and/or a money matter. Your lack of energy very well could have colored your thinking. Tonight: Do what feels right.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) The Full Moon points to you. As a result, you might be reactive and cause yourself a problem.

You’ll try to take command of your life, but there are so many unpredictable elements that it might not work out. Know that you can adjust to the situation.

Tonight: Do your thing.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Much is going on behind the scenes. Acting on what you think could be difficult at best. Gather information, but avoid making a judgment for about a week, if possible. Today’s events will have a different appearance at that point. Tonight: Not to be found.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Keep your eye on the prize. Do not get distracted by all the hoopla, unexpected events and emotional statements from others. This, too, will pass, given a little time and caring. If a conversation feels stilted, you can be sure that you’re not getting all the facts. Tonight: Join friends.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Pressure builds. On some level, you could feel out of sync as you

For Better or Worse

Garfield

look at the panorama of your life.

You will become the ringmaster if you just relax and allow others to help out. Do not make any commitments of your time or money for a while. Tonight: TGIF. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might want to deal with a situation differently. How you handle a personal matter could change once some of the intensity of the moment dies down.

You could be overserious or too demanding. Detach for a better perspective. Tonight: Where there is music.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A creative endeavor takes an unusual turn. A partner could be reactive, especially with finances. You could be making matters worse. Address a low-level depression, and understand that you can handle this problem.

Tonight: Answer any questions that are posed.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) The Full Moon affects you socially and emotionally. You might wonder what is going on with an important person in your life. If you are having difficulty explain-

ing this person’s behavior, don’t get uptight. He or she might not be able to, either. Tonight: Go along with the program.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be past the point of no return when dealing with an associate. You also might give this person an unexpected jolt.

Though at first you might feel guilty about it, try to view your words as a wake-up call. Tonight: Get some much-needed R and R. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might feel pushed beyond your limit. Rather than express your exasperation, hold back and do something for yourself.

Friends also could be unusually demanding. Your finances will take a strange twist if you are not careful. Double-check your change. Tonight: Only what you want.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am a fortunate mother of four beautiful little girls, all under the age of 8. While I am not overweight, I could be in better shape.

How do I handle strangers and distant acquaintances who approach me and ask me when my baby is due? I do have a little bit of a belly, but it is quite a stretch to assume that I am pregnant. I find this to be incredibly rude and then embarrassing when I have to say that I am not actually pregnant. I would never approach a stranger to inquire about her pregnancy unless she brought it up first.

It is always women, never men, who do this. One would think they might be a bit more understanding in this department. -No, I Am Not Trying for a Boy Dear Not: We think people often open their mouths before their brains are in gear. No one should ever assume a woman is pregnant based on her appearance. It is asking for trouble. But we will also say that if this happens to you so frequently that it is disturbing, you might want to reconsider your choice of clothing. You may be accentuating your tummy area more than you realize.

Dear Annie: Twice in the past year I have been at events where you could win some grand prize, vacation trip or other gift. The entry forms required filling in my name, address, phone and email.

I found out the hard way that this isn’t what it’s cracked up to be. The first time, someone called to say I’d won a free trip. But the salesperson insisted that in order to claim my prize, I had to come to a specific address and tour townhomes. I went and discovered that I didn’t win anything at all.

The second time (for which I supposedly won a free car), I didn’t answer their calls, and then I blocked their number, but the calls continued. I ended up phoning them and asked them to stop calling me, but they wouldn’t listen. Finally, I said it was harassment, and the salesman said he would take my name off his list.

Tell people to be careful about those entry forms. It could be a scam. -- Texas Dear Texas: These aren’t scams. But they are misleading, and you need to read the fine print. They are similar to lotteries or sweepstakes. Could you win a free vacation or car? Yes. But the odds aren’t in your favor.

Someone will win the grand prize, but most people will simply get a tour of townhomes, timeshares or other vacation property.

We haven’t seen your entry forms, but we suspect they actually said to fill out the form and “win a free vacation” (no guarantee) or “you have won a free gift,” which could be anything, including the tour you took. We hope readers will take your warning to heart and pay attention to forms where they must put down personal contact information.

Dear Annie: I can relate to “S.W. in California,” the father who had a falling out with his daughter and she cut off contact. In response, he took her out of his will.

My husband and I have traveled this road with our adult children. Some young adults are simply selfish and ungrateful. They expect their parents to tolerate everything they do (even drugs), allow their friends into the home (even drug pushers and felons), give them money at the drop of a hat (even when the parents are struggling financially), and allow them to use their home as a hotel or storage facility. If the parents don’t cooperate, the kids punish them by being abusive or keeping the grandkids away.

I am tired of being treated so poorly. I have loved unconditionally, and in return, I’ve received disrespect and a broken heart. My job is done. -- Indiana Mom Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

MORRIS, Hugh Clough June 24, 1932 December 23, 2012.

Hugh Clough Morris â&#x20AC;&#x201C; beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather, husband, geologist, business leader, and friend of the sciences -- was born in Rangoon, Burma, to Violet (nĂŠe Reynolds) and Thomas Owen Morris. As a boy, living in Wales, he loved reading, travel, music, sport and sailing, pasttimes that remained dear to him throughout his life. He was admired and respected by all who knew him -- for his integrity and for his love of family.

Educated at the University of Witwatersrand (Wits), South Africa, Hugh came to North America on a geology scholarship from the South African Chamber of Mines.

Over the years, he worked for Cominco, Geomex/E&B Metals, Imperial Metals and Eldorado Gold, achieving renown as an innovator of exploration and a visionary businessman. He served on numerous boards as a director and Chairman, and in 1989, represented British Columbia at the World Economic Forum in Davos.

Hugh was a life-long friend of the sciences in Canada.

In addition to his memberships in the Geological Association of Canada (GAC), and numerous other scientific societies, he served for seventeen years as a member of the Canadian Geological Foundation, a charitable foundation promoting earth science-related activities. For his extraordinary service to the GAC, Hugh was honored with the Ambrose J. Willis Medal in 1993.

He became a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Distinguished Fellowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; of the GAC in 1995, and a member of the Royal Society of Canada in 1997.

Hughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contributions to the sciences encompassed service on several committees for the National Research Council of Canada and the National Research Council of the United States. He chaired both â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Lithoprobeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, a major seismic research project on the earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crust, and the Canada Global Change Program, a joint initiative of the Royal Society of Canada and Environment Canada devoted to the study and mitigation of climate change.

In addition, he was Chairman of the Pacific Institute of Mathematical Sciences (PIMS), and Chair of the Board of the Mathematics of Information Technology and Complex Systems (MITACS), a Canadian Networks of Centres of Excellence.

Following the death of Pat, his beloved wife of 47 years, Hugh established the Kimberley Foundation, devoted to the promotion of education and the geosciences. In 2011, he endowed the lecture series in mathematical sciences that now bears his name, through PIMS and the University of British Columbia. In addition, he was an enthusiastic patron of the Vancouver Symphony Orchestra.

Hugh Morris is survived and lovingly remembered for his kindness, gentleness, generosity, and wisdom by his second wife, Joan (whom he married in 2006), his daughters, Katherine, Rosalind and Susan, and their spouses (Andrew Hill, Yvette ChristiansĂŤ and David Roppel), five grandchildren, and eight greatgrandchildren, his mother-in-law (Patâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother), Gunda Lien, and his step-children, Bruce and Ann MacDonald.

A Funeral Service will be held at Tsawwassen United Church, 693 53 Street, Delta, BC, on Saturday, December 29 at 2:00pm (reception to follow at the Coast Hotel, at 1665 56 St, Delta). A Memorial event will also be held in the New Year.
