Two grizzlies seen on Rotary Drive Grizzlies seen in Rotary backyard and down path by Mark Creek C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

It appears that the two grizzlies that have been spotted on the ski hill and around the Lois Creek trails over the summer are making forays into town after dark.

Lucy Dean, who lives on Rotary Drive says the two bears were in her backyard in the early hours of Tuesday morning.

“They broke all three of my plum trees,” she said. “They were definitely grizzlies. We get bears all the time, but

these had the humps. There were two of them.”

Dean says the bears were in her backyard twice — once a 3:10 a.m. and again at 4 a.m.

She watched them cross Rotary Drive into the Aquatic Centre parking lot and then cross Archibald Street and disappear down the path along Mark Creek.

She called the police, who said they would notify the Conservation Officer.

She called the Bulletin so people can be notified there are grizzlies in town.

“That’s too close for comfort,” she said.

Residents are reminded to take extra care with securing their garbage and make sure to pick fruit trees and pick up all fruit that has fallen on the ground.

City wants province to take St. Mary Lake road

Kimberley will argue that majority of traffic does not stay within city limits C AROLYN GR ANT editor@dailybulletin.ca

The City of Kimberley will make another attempt to convince the provincial government to reclaim responsibility for St. Mary Lake Road.

Mayor Ron McRae told Council this week that he would have a meeting with the Minister of Transportation when he attends the

Union of British Columbia (UBCM) meeting later this month.

At that time, he will once again make the argument that the road — responsibility for which was passed to Kimberley some 12 years ago — is in fact a provincial road.

Pacific Coastal Airlines celebrated its staying power in a tough, competitive industry with an event marking its 10th anniversary at the Canadian Rockies International Airport, as it is now known.

The event took place Monday, Sept. 9, at the St. Eugene Mission Resort, hosted by Pacific Coastal — whose Vice-President Spencer Smith was among those in attendance. Smith announced that starting Oct. 2, Pacific Coastal would be offering a new “sameplane” flight from Cranbrook to Victoria — travellers would stay on the plane during a short stopover in Vancouver, then resume the flight over the Salish Sea, as opposed to transferring to another plane, as is the case now.

Pacific Coastal is a family-owned and operated business.

Spencer Smith is the son of Daryl Smith, a logger who started up a small bush pilot business in the Bella Coola area.w The book “A Pilot’s Log: Daryl Smith and Pacific Coastal Airlines,” by Jack Schofield, describes how Smith grew his airline from the ground up, surviving takeover attempts by larger airlines and “a turf war for dominance in Canada’s skies.”

“As I always say, the aviation business is up and down,” Smith told the Townsman on Monday evening.

Pacific Coastal Airlines Vice President Spencer Smith announces new “same plane” flights from Cranbrook to Victoria, starting Oct. 2

“But for us to be here for 10 years servicing the area is fantastic. We didn’t know what to expect when we came in, and we’re happy to still be here and still be relevant in the market. And more overall, relevant in the aviation business in B.C. “It’s been a tough go — the aviation industry isn’t the place for everybody, that’s for sure.”

Spencer Smith has seen a lot of changes in the aviation industry, but probably not as much as his father did.

“He (Daryl Smith) experienced all that stuff in a way that I didn’t as I grew up in the business. Certainly the regulatory role today is different when he was flying around in the bush, moving log-

gers around.

“It’s been an ever revolving change, and what’s happening now is the evolution of Westjet Encore and Air Canada’s regional services is interesting to watch, to see how the Canadian market changes in relation to that.

At Monday’s event, Kevin Boothroyd, Director of Sales and Marketing for Pacific Coastal, outlined some facts about the airline: The sixth largest airline at YVR (the Vancouver airport) — “so larger than British Airways, Singapore Airlines, and other major airlines flying in and out of Vancouver,” Boothroyd said.

• The third largest airline at YVR for take-offs and landings; • The largest airline for destinations in B.C. Boothroyd said because of Pacific Coastal’s service of so many small communities in the province, the airline sees considerable use for political and government flights, medical travel, blood and organ transport, and mail and courier flights.

Boothroyd also said that Pacific Coastal is working closely with First Nations in B.C. A detail of this the airline’s interest in helping keep aboriginal languages vital, like the local Ktunaxa language. In fact, Pacific Coastal will be incorporating Ktunaxa signage and messaging at the Canadian Rockies International Airport.

Kimberley to welcome Kögging For the Bulletin

Dutch vocalist, Norbert Kögging, returns to the birthplace of his debut album to launch his sophomore effort.

The Amsterdam-native with his band, KØGGING, will embark on a 13-day tour that will see them from Toronto to Vancouver Island. The tour marks Norbert’s fourth visit to Canada, a nation that holds a dear place in his heart.

“This is where it all started”, Norbert recalls.

After a lengthy stay at the Banff Centre for the Arts, KØGGING recorded their debut album, Daydreaming, at the Centre in 2011. The album, which harnesses the inspiration that Norbert found at the Banff Centre, is about fresh ideas, open space and the opportunities to come. Those opportunities didn’t take long to manifest. The band returned just a year later to delight audiences on a cross-country

tour.

The music, affectionately described as singer-songwriter jazz, is inspired by artists like Brad Mehldau, John Mayer and David Linx.

The songs are intimate, distinct and sincere.

Norbert is a convincing story-teller who shares his experiences honestly and from the heart.

With their new songs, KØGGING aims to explore the stories and emotions of everyday life. If Daydreaming was about what’s to come, his sophomore album will be an intimate exploration of what is. The new album is set to be recorded in Holland immediately following their Canadian tour.

The band, only in their fourth year of existence, is made up of Norbert Kögging, Folkert Oosterbeek playing Piano and Rhodes, Tobias Nijboer on Double Bass and Felix Schlarmann on drums. Excit-

2Cpl. Chris Newel of the Kimberley RCMP reports that at about 8:00 p.m. Monday, September 9 two motorcycles collided.

“Two motorcycles were traveling together,” Newel said. “The first one had to brake hard due to a deer. The

ed for their return, Norbert remarks, “It’s great to be able to build an audience in this beautiful country. Canada is really special to me and my musicians.”

Kögging plays Kimberley on Saturday, September 28 as part of the Jazz @ Centre 64 series.

City will ask province to take back St. Mary Lake Road

From Page 1 The City should not be responsible for a provincial road, he says.

“We will meet and see if they will take that stretch of road back,” said McRae. “It was a download. I’m not optimistic, but we’ll give it a go.”

McRae said traffic counters had been placed on the road, which appear to indi-

cate that at least 51 per cent of the traffic on the road is not staying in Kimberley city limits but proceeding out to the lake or beyond. That’s how you make your case that it’s a provincial highway, the Mayor said.

Coun. Albert Hoglund, who was on Council at the time of the road download, says the City has tried that

argument before, to no avail.

“We even argued that the Grey Creek Pass is on government maps and the road is the access to it, but we weren’t successful,” Hoglund said. “I can just say good luck to you.”

“Times change,” McRae said. “Maybe there will be a willingness to take a look at it.”

The conversation

arose because Council was asked to approve an expenditure of $5,000 to do some repairs to the last kilometre of the road. Coun. Darryl Oakley did not vote to do the repairs, saying he wasn’t in favour of spending money in an area where the City had no taxpayers.

Local business owner heads to World Triathlon Championships

Malcolm Sargent to race for Canada in 55 to 59 year old division ANTHONY DR ANSFELD For the Bulletin

Kimberley B.C. athlete Malcolm Sargent will be representing Canada at the World Triathlon Championships, which are being held in London England on September 15, 2013.

Malcolm and his wife Rhona own and operate the Kimberley Shell uptown. After the Triatholon they head to Florence Italy with daughter Jodie — who resides in Leicster UK — for the marriage of their eldest daughter Nikki on Tuesday, September 17. It will indeed be a busy week.

Opening Ceremonies for the World Tiatholons will be held at Canada House in Trafalgar Square. The host will be former Premier Gordon Campbell. Altogether there are 5,000 entrants from around the World. Malcolm will be competing in the 55- 59 year old division.

RUNNING CYCLING SWIMMING While most of us are starting the day with a cup of coffee, Malcolm is down at the Kimberley Aquatic Centre churning out 60- 80 laps as he

prepares for the 1500 metre swim in London. After work he jumps on his beloved bicycle “Chrissi” for a ride either to Cranbrook and back home to Wycliffe, or a zip out to Wasa Lake, and then head back to his house.

Sometimes the ride ends up at Jim Smith Lake where he swims before riding back to Wycliffe. Did I mention running? Actually that is Sargent’s strongest event. He completed a 145 km trail run in the Crowsnest recently, and used to consistently run 120 miles per week when he lived in England. Currently he “only’ runs 50 km a week preparing for the World Championships.

Malcolm is President of Big Foot Running club here in the East Kootenay. The Triathlon in London consists of three events, a 1500 metre swim, then it is on to the bike for a 40 km ride, finishing up with a 10 km run.

Malcolm is hoping to do all of this in 2.5 hours. The 10 K run is being held in downtown London, where they will literally shut the City down. It begins in Hyde Park, down to Buckingham Palace, over to Trafalgar Square, then on to the infamous Tower of London via the Tower Bridge. If the weather is nice the Queen may well spectate these World Championships.

The power of Indigo

Veteran folk duo plays Cranbrook September 27 BARRY COULTER Townsman Editor

For a group that has been constantly touring for 25 years, the Indigo Girls are excited to be travelling across Canada — and doing it the way they started out touring: driving in a van from small venue to small venue.

The renowned American folk rock duo of Amy Ray and Emily Saliers are hitting the stage of the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook

on Friday, Sept. 27.

Emily Saliers spoke to the Daily Townsman last week, in advance of the ‘Two North’ tour which kicks off in Vancouver. She spoke about the upcoming Canadian experience, the evolution of music over a 25-plus-year career, and the Indigo Girl’s political activism.

“This is the first comprehensive tour of Canada and we’re very excited,” Saliers said. “Just touring in a van and playing from town to town. It’s like the way we started out in the States, small venues, in a van, stripped down, just the two of us, playing our

instruments and singing our songs.”

There is certainly a different vibe between the two countries, and Saliers can appreciate the difference.

“What I like about the musical experience in Canada, first of all, is the way Canada supports its own music,” she said. “Canada is also very, very passionate about music. People are so passionate about their festivals, and just seem to absorb music.

“I’m loving getting to know the different parts of the country, how the west is different that the east and the landscapes and all those things,”

she added. “It’s a very rich and new experience, and it’s quite a big deal to have a country so close to our own that we can begin to discover anew.”

Saliers and Ray first met in elementary school in Georgia. After several instances of performing together, they banded together for good as the Indigo Girls in 1985, and released their first fulllength album — “Strange Fire” — in 1987. Signed to Epic Records in 1988, their second LP “Indigo Girls” brought mainstream success. Since then, they have released 11 more albums, the latest being “Beauty Queen Sister” in 2011.

Throughout their career, the Indigo Girls have built a reputation as high intensity performers, with powerful two-part harmony and musicianship and t h o u g h t-p rov o k i n g songwriting — a great live act to see.

“We love playing live,” Saliers said. “This tour is just going to be me and Amy — that’s the way we started. It’s much more intimate than having a big band or playing a big venue.

It’s going to be fun to bring out a bunch of old, middle and new songs along the discography. We totally feed off the energy of people

in the room.”

Both Saliers and Ray Do the Indigo Girls haver some new music to showcase?

“I’m hoping, because we haven’t played a lot of these towns, that there’s going to be new music for some of the crowd, even though it’s already been recorded,” Saliers said. “But whatever new music we have we’ll likely play.”

She said that there has been an evolution in the Indigo Girls’ songwriting processes.

“The one thing that has stayed the same is the reason why we write music. It comes from a very personal place, and also a lot of reflection on what’s going on in the world around us.

“So as much as the music, the lyrics, are important to us, and part of who we are and what we do, I think as time went on we tried to pick up new instruments to texturally make it more interesting for ourselves as well as for people who are listening to the music.

When you pick up a new instrument it leads you to a new song. The songs that were written on those instruments would not have been written on guitar.

The Great Elephant Hunt of 1926

Eighty-seven years ago last month, three elephants escaped from a travelling circus in Cranbrook and roamed the hills. One of them never made it out alive. This fourpart series retells the classic story.

Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

Two weeks after three elephants stampeded from Cranbrook rail yards on August 6, 1926, two of the pachyderms are still at large.

By September 2, Myrtle is known to be hiding in dense timber near the base of Moyie Mountain. Charlie Ed hasn’t been seen for three weeks. The weather is starting to turn and things are looking grim for the pair.

On September 8, an

Elephants make good bait exhausted, barely alive Myrtle is captured on Moyie Mountain. The Herald reports that she had fallen over a 40-foot cliff and was suffering from pneumonia. The Courier simply says she is a “physical wreck”.

She has lost all of her toenails, her knees are “fearfully bruised” and she has two bullet wounds in her hip, reportedly shot by a local Myrtle charged in her fear.

When elephant trainers approached the poor little elephant, she didn’t startle. Local people rushed food and bedding to Myrtle, but by the time they arrived, she had already died.

Later, circus officials said they had put her out of her misery.

Unable to be moved, Myrtle’s body remained at the spot for almost a year. At first, local men used her as bait for game hunting. “Elephant meat is good for bait” reported the Courier at the end of September, adding that one man shot a massive grizzly at the sights.

“The trophy which Mr. Gray brought in from the wilds is in splendid peltage, and the huge claws and

tusks of the animal are perfect.”

Hoping to preserve Myrtle’s remains for science, A.J. Ironside and a Courier newspaperman head out to Moyie Mountain, and bring back Myrtle’s head and one of her front feet.

They are sent to the University of Alberta in Edmonton, where they remain even now, in the 21st century. The following July, a scientific expedition from the university, led by a Courier staff member, return and collect the rest of Myrtle’s bones.

A piece of Myrtle’s hide, one-inch square and fastened with twine, is these days in the possession of the Cranbrook Archives.

Meanwhile, near Lumberton, Charlie Ed is faring much better.

But Cranbrook’s Fall Fair is approaching, and the circus has offered that if the little trick elephant can be captured before September 16, Cranbrook can put him on show at the fair.

So a crew of locals and circus men come up with a plan. They have found the watering hole where Charlie Ed comes to drink. So they set up a snare, strung

Indigo Girls play Cranbrook From Page 4 “I also think that when we first started, when we first got signed, we were holding very closely to what we did.

We didn’t feel as free and secure to experiment, because we wanted to make sure that a major label wasn’t take us far away from what we really were. So over the years we’ve relaxed, and now we’re much more open to experimenting, trying different players, different sounds. But some of the records are as organic or more organic and simplifed than even our earliest ones, and some of them are more produced. It just depends on how we want to treat the songs at the time we go into the studio.”

Of course, the Indigo Girls’ progressive activism is part and parcel of

their brand. Saliers said that both she and Ray were raised to realize that they were part of a community, and not just living for themselves. From the earliest stages of their career, they were playing in support of local community groups, to raise both funds and awareness.

“And as years went on and we met tremendous activists, we became mentored by them, we learned how to become effective activists because we believed in the grassroots approach,” Saliers said.

“I’d like to see people be citizens and active, just because that’s how we make the world a better place, to put it simply. But I don’t think it’s everyone’s — or the artist’s — responsibility.

“But we’ve seen the

way that music can galvanize whole social movements, how music can ease people’s troubled spirits, quite literally save lives. I know the way music feels to me when I need it to energize me or just make me aware. Amy and I, we believe in the power of that, and we believe in a lot of different causes, and we just marry the music with the causes, and that’s just part of the fabric of who we are.

“We can’t separate ourselves from the things we believe in, and expressing them through the music or through the concerts.

Charlie Ed was brought back into Cranbrook just in time for the annual Fall Fair September 18, where he was the main attraction. from a couple of tamaracks, and they wait.

Soon enough, on September 14, Charlie Ed happens upon it, is caught up, and finally lets the handlers chain his feet.

Unlike poor Myrtle,

Charlie Ed is in pretty good shape and, according to the Courier on September 16, “seems to have thrived on native grasses and leaves in his weeks of roaming the jungles of Canada”.

The little elephant is slowly but triumphantly led back into town, taking a full day to get from Jimsmith Lake to town.

The very next day, a snowstorm hits Cranbrook. It certainly

would have killed the Indian elephant.

So what happened to Charlie Ed when he returned to Cranbrook?

That’s a story for Friday’s Townsman.

W

hen someone pulls a rabbit out of a hat, it’s natural to be suspicious. Magicians are professionals in deceit – and so are diplomats. But sometimes the rabbit is real.

On Monday morning, the world was heading into the biggest crisis in years: a looming American attack on Syria, a Russian response that could set off the first major confrontation between Washington and Moscow since the Cold War, and the possible spread of the fighting from Syria to neighbouring countries. Or alternatively, a Congressional rejection of President Barack Obama’s plans that would have left him a lame duck for the next three years.

By Tuesday morning all that had changed. A Russian proposal for Syria to get rid of all its chemical weapons was promptly accepted by the Syrian foreign minister, Walid al-Moallem, and the Senate vote on Obama’s planned strikes on Syria was postponed, probably for weeks. If Syria keeps its word, the vote may never be held. What a difference a day makes.

Now for the cavils. Nothing has been signed. Nothing has even been written up for signature. Maybe Syria is just playing for time. Perhaps Obama will want to pursue the Syrian regime legally for the poison gas attacks that he claims it has already carried out (though he sounded very relieved on hearing the news and didn’t mention any “red lines”).

The sequence of events, so far as can be made out, was as follows. At the Moscow G20 summit last week, Obama and Russian president Vladimir Putin had a one-to-one chat on the side at which one of them broached the possibility of persuading Syria to give up its chemical weapons entirely.

Which one isn’t clear, and the idea was not pursued by either of them.

Yet both men had reason to want such a thing, for the alternative was that Obama would lead the United States into another Middle Eastern war, not exactly what he was elected for – or that he would not get Congressional approval to do so and end up completely discredited. Putin would feel obliged to respond to a US attack on his Syrian ally, but that could end up

with Russian missiles shooting down American planes.

There was then silence until Monday, when John Kerry, the US Secretary of State, gave an off-the-cuff reply in London to a question about whether Syria’s President Bashar al-Assad could avoid an American attack. “Sure. He could turn over every bit of his (chemical) weapons to the international community within the next week, without delay,” said Kerry with a shrug. “But he isn’t about to.”

Then Kerry got on a plane to fly home, and halfway across the Atlantic he got a call from the Russian foreign minister, Sergei Lavrov, saying that he was about to announce that Russia would ask Syria to put all its chemical weapons storage facilities under international control, join the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, and finally destroy them all.

The Syrian foreign minister happened to be in Moscow, so within an hour he declared that Assad’s regime “welcomes Russia’s initiative, based on the Syrian government’s care about the lives of our people and security of our country.”

By Monday evening Obama was saying that the Russian plan “could potentially be a significant breakthrough,” and the pot was off the boil.

The whole thing, therefore, was made up on the fly. That doesn’t necessarily mean that it won’t work, but it is a proposal that comes without any of the usual preparation that precedes a major diplomatic initiative. The reason we don’t know the details is that there aren’t any. What we do know is that everybody – Obama, Putin and Assad – is clearly desperate to avoid going to war, and that gives us reason to hope.

Two things that have to happen fast, if this rabbit is really going to run. First, Syria has to sign the Chemical Weapons Convention and ratify the Biological and Toxin Weapons Convention right away. That could be done within a week, and it would legally commit it to getting rid of all its chemical weapons and the factories that make them.

Secondly, the United Nations Security Council has to pass a resolution demanding that Syria reveal the size and location of its entire stock of

chemical weapons and place them under international control. France has already put such a resolution on the Security Council’s agenda; the test will be whether Russia vetoes it. It probably won’t.

There is a great deal of suspicion in Washington that this is merely a delaying tactic meant to stall an American attack and sap the already weak popular support in the United States for military action.

Moreover, it will be hard to send international troops in to secure Syria’s chemical weapons (at least forty storage sites, plus some weapons in the hands of military units) unless there is a ceasefire in the civil war now raging all over the country.

But the American military will be pleased, because they were really unhappy about the job that Obama was giving them, and Obama himself looks like a man who has been granted a new lease of life.

There will be time to try to make this work.

Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor

28,020-hectage sponge

My recent letter to the Editor regarding Mr.Gray’s presentation should have been less provocative. I apologize for that. It was an effort to express the view that there may be other important aspects regarding forest thinning that are less obvious but just as important as reducing fire risk. In Mr. Gray’s recent article his focus is still remains on reducing risk from fire by forest thinning, and I have no problem with that, but for me, any discussion about the fate of our surrounding forest shouldn’t be confined to the single view that removing the trees will solve all the problems.

There are other impacts from forest thinning besides reducing the fire hazard.

Water quality, earth-slides, soil erosion, flooding and other issues seem to be totally absent from the discussion so far. My hope is the scope of the discussion will expand to include potential problems with such a plan.

For example, one problem in particular that deserves our attention is water/ flood control. Geologists tell us the Cranbrook area is unique in that it is an immense saucer shaped depression in alluvial soil surrounded by rocky hills, and in almost every direction the elevation rises steeply. With very limited drainage, the Cranbrook area is the terminus for several major water flows — Joseph’s Creek, Gold Creek, Hospital Creek and dozens of smaller and seasonal creeks too. Cranbrook’s Director of Public Works once described the containment as “essentially, a 28,020-hectare sponge”.

The only natural-water drainage to this huge containment is the remnants of Joseph’s Creek to the North-West. The creek is normally a meandering slow-running stream winding through the middle of town and eventually draining to the St. Mary’s river. That single outflow is is at the opposite end of town from the major inflow. It also happens to be our sewerage disposal area which reduces it’s high-flow capacity and in case of flooding, presents other serious problems.

The Cranbrook area is full of lakes and marshes and a high water table and seasonal flooding is normal and our ability to

cope with excess water is very limited.

I believe it’s the huge mass of trees, roots, swamps, soil and vegetation that surrounds Cranbrook that collects and absorbs excess water, moderating and regulating the flow of spring run-off and heavy rain storms over a period of weeks and even months. The impact of removing most of the absorbant bio-mass for a two- to 10-kilometre swath around Cranbrook would mean all of the water that falls on the surrounding slopes would flow to Cranbrook, not in a matter of weeks or months, but maybe in a matter of hours.

Flooding is just an example of an array of potential problems with forest thinning, and my hope is the range of the discussion will involve all the factors; fire-control, soil erosion, air-quality, earth-slides, flooding, water quality, wildlife habitat and recreation too.

With forest thinning we may just be trading a rare chance of a disastrous event for an even more sure and uncontrollable one.

disappears. How ironic it has happened to Stephen Harper who preached for an elected senate when he was a member of the National Citizens Coalition. Hasn’t he appointed 58 senators and some of them have haunted him with the latest senate scandal.

My grannie always said, “You make your bed and lie in it”! Another favourite of grannie’s was, “Oh what a tangled web we weave when first we practice to deceive”!

Gran Fondo

I was so happy to read the “Elephant” story in the Townsman. My father Hugh J. Brock was the engineer on that trail.

I recall his many railroad stories, but this one was always the best.

My husband and I plus our cycling friend rode the 100 kilometre loop of the Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo on Sunday and had an excellent experience. All the riders were in high spirits and there was specialized support for the three different cycling routes — 50, 100, and 150 kilometres. The highlights for us were the interactions with all the volunteers. We saw them administering first aid, fixing flat tires, directing traffic, and offering encouragement. The aid stations were well-organized with gatorade, water, muffins, and power bars.

This first-ever Gran Fondo was a fun and well-organized participation event.

Thank you to the Sunrise Rotary Club, the other service clubs, and the many volunteers for a job well-done. We are planning already to register for KRGF - 2014.

Prorogation

After reading the article on prorogation by our federal MP, all I can say is please do not dumb us down.

Prorogation is used numerous times to avoid issues and grilling by opposition.

Examples being Jean Chretien to avoid Sponsorship Scandal in 2002 and Stephen Harper in 2008 to avoid non-confidence vote.

This fall’s prorogation is to avoid questioning on senate scandal and hopes that it

What makes life worth living?

W

hen asked the question, what makes life worth living; some of the answers you might hear are loving and supportive relationships, meaningful work and involvement in hobbies, opportunities for fun and play, and the ability to pursue your dreams.

However, there are circumstances that may prevent people from having these opportunities and gaining the belonging, acceptance and recognition we all need.

These circumstances may include poverty, unemployment, discrimination and limited

services available when they need help.

Many of these challenges create stressful conditions and over time, they also create poor mental health. Perhaps most troubling is the fact that suicide claims the lives of more than 3500 people in Canada a year and approximately 500 of those deaths are young people between the ages of 15 and 24.

Suicide is the second leading cause of death among our young people in Canada and this fact leads me to ask what can we do to support all youth in building lives

Jenny Turco worth living? This is true prevention but there is no one easy answer. We can begin by understanding those things that make our youth feel connected and accepted.

Communities can play an important role in suicide prevention.

Communities that provide youth with opportunities to build coping and problem-solving skills, dependable adults and role models, access and transportation to a variety of recreational activities, strong family support and involvement, community and cultural ties, positive and safe school environments and opportunities to be involved in decisions that effect them have happier, healthier and safer youth.

And remember, help is available. If you or someone you care about is currently in crisis, call 1-888-353-2273 (1-888-

353-CARE) or visit the following websites for information: www.crisiscentre.bc.ca and youthinbc.com/ September 10 was World Suicide Prevention Day and events are took place across Canada and around the world to promote suicide awareness and prevention.

BALLET MASTER CLASS WITH FORMER ROYAL WINNIPEG BALLET STAR

SARAH MURPHY-DYSON

This past weekend the Kootenay Rovers U-10 Boys soccer team traveled to Sandpoint, Idaho to participate in the Pend Oreille Cup youth soccer tournament.

The boys played against some strong American competition, but were more than up for the challenge - winning the gold medal.

Their first game was a 3-3 draw versus the CDA Sting, a team from Coeur d’ Alene, Idaho. In their second match they defeated The Spokane Pumas FC by a score of 4-0.

In their early Sunday game they met the Flathead Rapids, a team from Whitefish, Montana.

The Rovers won this match by a

score of 3-1. This win advanced the boys to the tournament final, where they would meet another Spokane, Washington team - the Spokane Breakers.

The Breakers had dominated their pool by winning all three of their games by a combined score of 19-2, however, our boys were not fazed by their success. The Rovers jumped out to an early lead that they never relinquished, winning the game by a score of 4-2.

This was the first full year that the boys have played together as a traveling team representing Cranbrook. Coach Wade Schlatter has spent countless hours of his time working with them in the gym over the winter and out on the

fields in the spring and summer.

With help from Assistant Coach Peter Herrmann, the boys quickly came together as a team.

The improvement in their skills and knowledge of the game was quite amazing. Team Manager Shauna Beaulac also contributed a great deal of her time and organizing skills to help make it all come together.

In their two previous tournaments the boys had come close, losing 2-1 in the final in Kalispell, Montana and a 1-0 loss in double overtime in Moscow, Idaho. The Gold Medal win in Sandpoint was a great way for the boys to end off a very successful first season together.

Members of the Avalanche Summer Volleyball Camp try out the newly refurbished beach volleyball courts at the College of the Rockies.

Avs partner up with local volleyball club Tre vor Cr awley Sports Editor

A local volleyball club is getting a helping hand from the College of the Rockies.

The East Kootenay Volleyball Club have formed a partnership with the COTR Avalanche, which is aimed at building the sport in the East Kootenays.

Cori Andrichuk, manager of campus life and athletics, notes that the new partnership will enable the two groups to share knowledge and infrastructure, while giving local athletes access to high level volleyball

close to home.

“We have had a long-standing relationship with the EKVC,” Andrichuk said. “Many of our former and current players help out with coaching for the club and they frequently use our facility for games.

“This partnership helps us to continue to grow the existing relationship for the benefit of volleyball in the region.”

Though the announcement is just being made, there have already been tangible benefits of the partnership, as the EKVC gathered funding and volunteer labour to

rebuild the beach volleyball courts next to the track at the College.

“The courts have been completed and they are an outstanding addition to the COllege track facility,” added Andrichuk. “This was a huge project that was spearheaded by EKVC coach Troy McFadzen and will benefit not only Avalanche and EKVC teams, but the College students and Cranbrook community.”

EKVC vice president Karen Kettenacker added that the new beach courts bring many benefits to the

club.

“Beach volleyball provides excellent cross training for indoor volleyball,” Kettenacker said. “The newly restored courts will also provide a training site for athletes trying to qualify for the B.C. Summer Games.

“We look forward to hosting some beach volleyball tournaments in 2014.”

Many volunteers, along with support from Sandor Rentals and Hebditch Holdings Inc, banded together to complete the court restoration.

VANCOUVER - The B.C. Lions agreed to contract terms with free agent defensive end Chris Wilson on Tuesday.

Wilson, a native of Flint, Mich., originally signed with the club in 2005 and helped the Lions win a Grey Cup in 2006. He had 70 defensive tackles and nine sacks in 36 regular-season games over

two seasons with B.C. “Chris approached us last week about returning to the club and we are very pleased to welcome him back,” Lions general manager Wally Buono said in a release. “He’s a gifted athlete who will bring another aggressive and physical presence to our defensive line.”

Wilson signed with the Washington Redskins in 2007 and

spent the next four seasons with the NFL club.

He signed with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2011 but was released in training camp and sat out the rest of the year. Wilson returned to the Redskins in 2012.

In 80 career games over five NFL seasons, he recorded 57 defensive tackles, 6 1/2 sacks and three forced fumbles.

Canadian women’s hockey team dumps Russia 9-1 in exhibition game in Sochi C anadian Press

SOCHI, Russia - Veteran forward Hayley Wickenheiser had a goal and two assists to lead Canada to a 9-1 rout of Russia in a women’s hockey exhibition game Tuesday at Shayba Arena.

Wickenheiser opened the scoring just 34 seconds into the game. Jennifer Wakefield scored twice and

Lauriane Rougeau, Meghan Agosta-Marciano, Marie-Philip Poulin, Gillian Apps, Vicki Bendus and Jenelle Kohanchuk added singles.

Canada defeated the host side 6-1 in the opener of the two-game series on Sunday. The series gave the Canadian team an opportunity to get accustomed to the Olympic venue and

surrounding area.

“The main goal here was familiarization with the rink, the venues, the Olympic Park and just the city in general,” said Canadian head coach Dan Church.

Yekaterina Smolentseva had the lone goal for Russia.

The Sochi Games will begin Feb. 7. Canada won gold at the 2010 Vancouver Games.

You also could find that certain key people are more attractive and interesting than usual.

Know that the positive energy is coming from you. Tonight: Go with someone else’s choice.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Defer to others, and they will show their appreciation in a way that pleases you. Your high energy often is a draw, yet some people might find it difficult not to feel drained. You are full of fun around a close friend. This person appreciates this quality in you. Tonight: Where people

are.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Listen to your inner voice when dealing with someone whom you see daily. Follow through, because this person might need a special “hello.” Be aware of the importance of the role of this person in your life. Tonight: Off to the gym, or get some other form of exercise.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You beam, and others can’t help but respond. As a result, both your personal and professional interactions will gain intensity.

A conversation could provide an opening for you to ask for a raise or some kind of similar benefit.

Tonight: Why not celebrate the moment?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Honor your feelings rather than do what you should. As a result, you might prevent a problem from occurring. Obligations can be a problem, especially if your feelings are pointing you in a different direction. Your self-discipline is admirable. Tonight: Happy at home.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

For Better or Worse

You naturally offer good conversation, give sage advice and enjoy being around others.

Today, your people skills will break down a barrier that has existed for too long. You might be surprised by the other party’s reaction. Maintain a sense of humor. Tonight: Hang out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) When it comes to shopping and spending, it would appear that you have on rose-colored glasses that prevent you from seeing the consequences of your actions. Something’s value might not be enough of a reason to purchase it. Tonight: In the mood to indulge a little.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have reason to be upbeat: The winds of good fortunate are blowing in your direction. A partner could be very challenging at this point, but you will choose to take his or her focus in a positive way and simply respond. How smart! Tonight: Beam in what you want.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might want to reassess your involvement with some-

one who is very difficult to access and who could have many problems. In this case, think long and hard before making a decision. Tonight: Visit with a dear friend or family member, even if it is just through Skype!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might see past the obvious yet choose to say little. You could feel so challenged by a situation that you’ll think it is best not to reveal your vulnerability. Test out your thoughts on someone else before deciding on their merit. Tonight: Join your friends. Do not be alone.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Some of the tension you feel now could be the result of you trying to please someone who has no interest in being pleased right now. This person might prefer to be critical and difficult. Do not play into his or her games. Just relax, and avoid going overboard. Tonight: Up late.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I make my living by helping people with computer issues, setting up, getting rid of malware, etc. I love helping clients and truly enjoy my profession. I do an excellent job for my customers and am completely devoted to customer satisfaction.

My problem lies with friends, neighbors, etc., who take advantage of my knowledge and expertise. It usually starts with a phone call or an email saying, “I just have a quick question.” These questions are not usually so quick, involving at least a half-hour and often many hours on the phone. When the problem is solved, they say “thanks” and hang up. Meanwhile, I have spent hours of my time that should have been billable.

I am looking for a professional but pleasant way to handle those who don’t offer to pay me. Should I say something upfront? I don’t mind helping when it actually is a quick question: under 10 minutes. I do it all the time and am happy to do so. But the rest of this is beginning to be a financial drain, and I really need your help. -- Always Willing To Help Dear Willing: You need to let people know the situation at the time they ask. Reply, “I’m happy to help, but it is only fair to tell you that I can give you 10 minutes for free, and after that, my time will have to be billed.” If you want to offer friends and family a special discount of some kind, say so. Some people will be upset regardless, but that cannot be helped. Those who are most likely to take advantage are the same ones who take umbrage when you don’t acquiesce.

Dear Annie: I have a valued, dear friend whom I really admire and enjoy talking with.

However, he truly needs breath fresheners.

Having a conversation with him is such a turnoff that I sometimes avoid him.

I know he reads your column every day.

I’ve thought of hanging a bottle of Scope on his door but would hate to be caught. What should I do? This is becoming a serious problem. -- A Friend Who Needs an Assist Dear Friend: When issues such as bad breath or body odor occur with good friends or close family, it is a kindness to tell them.

Yes, it is difficult and can be embarrassing, but consider the alternative -- you are allowing others to avoid or insult someone you care about. Take your friend aside privately.

Ask whether he’s seen his dentist or physician lately. Tell him that breath odors are often the result of physical or dental problems that can be resolved and you thought he’d want to know. Then move on to another subject.

Dear Annie: “Feeling Exploited” was upset that a couple he invited for lunch ordered appetizers without first checking with the hosts to see whether it was OK. When my husband and I invite a couple to go out for dinner, we always tell them to order first. We don’t expect them to feel they can’t have appetizers if we are not. Why would you invite someone out and then expect them to feel nervous about what they are ordering? If you can’t afford to take them out for a proper dinner, invite them to your home. -- Not Cheap Dear Not Cheap: You are generous, although we suspect you might feel differently if you invited someone who ordered a $300 bottle of wine. It is incumbent upon guests to behave considerately. While good hosts should suggest appetizers, guests should not assume it is OK when they are not paying the bill.

Annie’s Snippet for Patriot Day (credit author James K. Feibleman): That some good can be derived from every event is a better proposition than that everything happens for the best, which it assuredly does not.
