Police arrest suspect who jumped into river SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

RCMP arrested a man on Friday who had been declared missing after he jumped into the Kootenay River near Wardner Wednesday.

The 40-year-old man was arrested near Canal Flats on the morning of Friday, September 13, according to

Cranbrook RCMP. He has been charged with possession of a controlled substance for the purpose of trafficking.

The man was declared missing last week after he ran away from RCMP in Wardner and jumped into the Kootenay River.

Task Force was in the process of arresting two men in possession of cocaine on Wednesday, September 11 in Wardner. While one man was arrested, the other fled police and went into the river.

RCMP, the police service dog team, Cranbrook and Kimberley Search and Rescue and an RCMP helicopter

searched for the man Wednesday evening and Thursday along the river. Police recovered a large amount of cocaine that they believe the man had on his person during his escape.

“In addition to the river search, police conducted patrols and surveillance at several locations in Cranbrook,”

said Cpl. Chris Newel in an RCMP statement released Saturday.

“On the evening of September 12, the subject’s truck had moved. Police located the truck at another location and continued surveillance for most of the night before they had to break off.

“On the morning of September 13, the truck had moved again but police located it on Highway 93/95 near Canal Flats. The vehicle was stopped and the subject taken into custody without incident.”

He will appear in Cranbrook Provincial Court on Monday, September 16.

Daylight theft fails at Scotiabank Man with suspected broken nose flees Cranbrook bank after trying to break in through a back door Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

A man who appeared to be having an unlucky streak tried to break in to Scotiabank in Cranbrook on Friday, September 13.

At around 9:20 a.m. on Friday, during the bank’s operating hours, the man – who has two black eyes and tape across his nose suggesting it is broken – used a pry bar to try to break in through a back door at Scotiabank on the strip in Cranbrook.

According to an RCMP statement, the man saw bank staff and ran away.

Police scoured the area but were unable to locate the man.

As well as the black eyes and white tape across his nose, the man is described as being in his mid 20s, fit-looking, and was wearing jeans and a black hoody.

“The RCMP is asking that if anyone has seen this person or knows who he is or his whereabouts, they are requested to call their local police immediately,” said Cpl. Pat Prefontaine in a statement.

Two grizzly bears went to work on a plum tree in Kimberley last week, during one of many visits to town.

READE R

Conservation officers continue to try to track two grizzly bears who have made repeated appearances in Kimberley in the past week.

Last Thursday, September 12, the bears were seen in the late afternoon in the vicinity of McKim Middle School.

They were seen in the McKim area again on Friday, forcing cancellation of the school’s Terry Fox run.

CO Joe Carravetta says there are three conservations officers out looking for the bears and two traps have been set, but so far the bears have eluded capture.

The good news, Carravetta says, is that so far the bears are not exhibiting any aggressive behaviour.

“Of all the reports we’ve had — and we thank people for keeping us informed — there is no report of aggressive behaviour. They are mainly seen at night, except for about 4 o’clock Thursday afternoon, and they are

more interested in fruit trees than anything else.”

Traps have been set but it is difficult because the bears aren’t particularly sticking to one area.

“They keep moving around. We are trying to track them, but our officers haven’t actually seen them yet.

“Right now it’s an ongoing assessment. We are paying close attention to them. So far they haven’t caused a situation where we would have to take adverse action.”

Fruit trees are very full this year and Carravetta says there are reports around the region of grizzlies getting into fruit trees, although right now Kimberley is the only place with them active right in town.

“Trees are hanging with fruit everywhere. We ask that if you are not going to eat it, pick it anyway. Give the fruit to the food bank. No attractants, no bears.”

Please report all sightings of the bears to the provincial RAPP line at 1-877-952-7277.

The latest developments in a key local industry will be demonstrated to the public next week.

Charlie Willis’s tree farm, a few miles east of Cranbrook, is hosting the Kootenay Silvopasture Tour on Thursday, Sept. 19.

The tour is sponsored by the Agroforestry Industry Development Initiative (AIDI), and is part of a project designed to enhance both Christmas tree production and silvopasture for wildlife and livestock in the Kootenays. A release from AIDI says prior work has determined that Christmas tree silvopastures have the potential to increase the number of hectares for animal forage in the Kootenays.

The BC Agroforestry Industry Development Initiative is funding the Kootenay Silvopasture

Tour and others like it, Willis said, to help with studies on forage availability and plant identification. In this way, Willis’s farm is serving as a working site, as part of the ongoing study on the economics of opening up forage availability on Christmas tree farms.

Charlie Willis developed a method of pruning his Christmas trees based on the way fruit trees are pruned: a little higher from the ground, allowing for more air space between the tree and the ground.

This technique makes the trees less susceptible to groundborne diseases.

He also has a specific method of “stump culture” pruning – after the tree is cut, the way the limbs are left on the stump from the initial pruning means when the tree regenerates it requires less pruning, with less stress on the new tree.

The latest developments in the silvopasture industry will be on display Thursday, Sept. 19, at Kootenay Tree Farms.

Willis leaves the emerging limbs only on the north and south sides of the new tree, with the topmost limb on the north side of the stump.

“In the process of doing this, we’ve opened up the ground that we grow trees on,” Willis said. “There has been a subsequent increase in forage and native grasses.”

Willis said, by tending to the growing Christmas trees in this way, not only are the health and disease resistance of the trees improved, but local grasslands native to the East Kootenay are enhanced, and forage areas for wildlife and cattle are increased.

Last year’s tour — the first in the AIDI project

— took a look at these pruning techniques.

This year’s tour will be looking at several aspects of the Christmas tree and ranching industries, and how they come together. Some of these aspects include: • Livestock distribution in silvopastures; • Tree diseases and the relationship to temperature and bud break; • Pruning and spacing of trees to maximize tree production and forage; • Raising of the level of the tree canopy for air flow and forage production; • Fertilization techniques for the benefit of trees and forage; • Managing soil water retention for trees and forage; • Managing saska-

toons and rough fescue for elk and other wildlife; • Forage cover in relation to trees.

The AIDI release said that the local producer groups who will directly benefit from the project are the Kootenay Christmas Tree Association (which has approximately 20 members in the region) and the Kootenay Livestock Assocation (with approximately 80 members).

If you would like to attend, call Charlie Willis at 250-489-4877, or email kootenaytreefarms@shaw.ca.

The tour takes place Thursday, Sept. 19, from 8 a.m. to 12 noon. It starts from the junction of Pritchard Road and Highway 3/93, about eight miles east of Cranbrook.

B.C. seeks input on liquor laws C ANADIAN PRESS

BURNABY, B.C. — The B.C. government has launched a new website inviting the public to offer ideas on changes to liquor laws.

Parliamentary Secretary for Liquor Reform John Yap introduced the site Saturday while touring a brewery and said people can get involved through blog discussions, Twitter chats and feedback forms.

He said the province is changing liquor laws on the use and sale of

beer, wine and spirits to improve customer service and grow the economy while ensuring public health and safety.

The website features a look at the history of liquor in B.C. since the 1800s, including prohibition in 1917, and the licensing of the province’s first winery in 1923.

Several meetings including various groups have been held this month in Victoria to discuss reforms to B.C. liquor laws.

They include the Centre for Addictions Research of BC, the Victoria Police Department and the Vancouver Island Helath Authority.

Yap is meeting with more groups through to October.

Input will be gathered on the website until the consultation process ends on Oct. 31, and a final report will be presented to Attorney General Suzanne Anton

by Nov. 25.

Feast from the harvest The 100 Mile Cook-Out is a chance for the community to sit down and share the spoils of the harvest, right in the garden

It’s time for harvesting, and later this month Cranbrook will host a unique community feast to celebrate.

On Thursday, September 19 at 5:30 p.m., East Kootenay residents are invited to bring homegrown fruits and vegetables to the Cranbrook Public Produce Garden for the 100 Mile Cook-Out. “We want to get people together, bringing their own locally grown food to celebrate. It’s so abundant at this time of year and it’s such a nice way to celebrate our local food,” said coordinator Shannon Duncan.

The event is part of the East Kootenay Community Eats initiative, a collaboration in food security between Wildsight Kimberley/Cranbrook and the Cranbrook Food Action Committee.

The Cook-Out is a simple idea: bring fruit or veggies you have grown yourself or sourced from a local producer to the garden.

There, folks will come together to cook up the produce in simple recipes that highlight the

superior taste of locally grown goods. Then, you’ll sit down and enjoy the spoils together, right there in the garden.

“The idea is that people can bring the raw fruits and vegetables that they have produced or sourced from a local producer – from the farmers’ market or something – then we can bring them together,” said Duncan.

Organizers will have grilled local sausage to complement the meal, available by donation.

“That’s a fun part of the process, to put them together and find different ways we can make nice side dishes to complement the sausage.”

Organizers will bring some recipe ideas, as well as condiments and local vinegars and oils.

“It will be really focused on the flavour of those foods, because we will be simply preparing them,” said Duncan, adding that the CookOut will showcase “how much sweeter and crisper and more textured the flavour is” from locally grown produce.

The Public Produce Garden is the perfect

setting for the harvest feast, as vegetables are being harvested from the garden at the same time.

“The public produce garden is being harvested really well,” said Duncan. “People are coming daily and taking part, and also taking it upon themselves to clean up the mess from harvesting.”

The Cranbrook Public Produce Garden is

located in MacKinnon Park on 18th Avenue North, between 6th and 8th Streets.

A many-splendoured thing “Falling in love with love is falling for make-believe.”

There’s no point in the following; I’m just nattering to myself.

Probably before ‘Greensleeves’ was penned back in the Middle Ages, songsters were composing lyrics about love.

This was still going on in the Later Dark Ages when I was brought screaming unmusically into this weird world. According to legend, I was born covered with hair and the nurses called me Tarzan, and we moviegoers all know how Tarzan screams, don’t we?

Quite honestly, I have no idea what musicians write about today because, when we are forced to listen to the noise, I and my ancient companions don’t understand what they’re singing, if that is what they’re supposed to be doing. Why, even Elvis always sounded as if he were warbling ‘Glove me tender’.

But, as I was attempting to grow up, 90 per cent of the songs that I learned were about undying love and thus tended to nauseate me until I fell in love with the first girl that would give me the time of day, usually whilst punching my lights out.

There’s an old tune called ‘It’s a sin to tell a lie’. Some of the lyrics include, “be

sure it’s true when you say ‘I love you.’”

What hogswallop! When I actually said those magical three words to the young woman whom I felt I ought to marry before someone else got her, it was because I realized that I had to if I wanted to keep her ‘on ice’. I’d no idea what it meant; I still don’t.

Anyway, later on, when I said those romantic words to my lovely wife, she would add, “For detrimental reasons”, misquoting a popular song at the time.

Quite recently I was appalled to hear Debussy’s lovely melody ‘La mer’, rePeter corded as a song, named Warland ‘Beyond the sea’, a love song.

And there was ‘If I loved you’, ‘People will say we’re in love’, ‘Somewhere, my love’, ‘So in love’ then, with The Beatles, ‘All I need is love’. It just went on and on ad nauseum.

I sometimes wonder if Oscar Hammerstein, the Gershwins or Rogers and Hart were ever really in love and why love has to reside in the heart. It’s probably because the lyricists would have a terrible time with sphincter or thyroid. Imagine ‘Peg o’ my thorax, I love you’.

Wouldn’t the word ‘affection’ do? Love is a sense of euphoria, which is a tough thing to keep up day-in and day-out.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Before I wandered off into continental Europe I carefully rehearsed the amorous expressions Ich liebe dich, je t’aime and te adoro, just in case, but I don’t recall practicing them; they might not have worked too well with grumpy truckers from whom I was attempting to hitch a ride; then you never know. Right?

Anyway, it just so happens that I was brought up in an area where it was all right to address any woman, especially an older woman as ‘love’. In fact, everyone called everyone else of the opposite sex ‘love’ even if they’d never met before. I recall, after a heavy date with a young lady with whom I was probably temporarily in love, falling asleep on a bus and being awakened by a stout, uniformed lady who, at the bus’s terminal informed me, “’Ere you are, love” then waited while I stumbled off into the wet night.

I think that in those days ‘love’ just meant that the one being addressed didn’t annoy the speaker too much. I wonder if that is really the true meaning of the word.

However, last week, my good friends Sean and Seanna - a match made in Gaelic heaven – set off to visit their son, who lives abroad. Just before I drove them to the airport, Sean confided in me sadly, “The most exciting thing about this trip is going to be seeing our dog, Felicity, when we get back.” Ain’t affection grand?

Opinion/Events Hydro rates review last thing Liberals want

W

hile Energy Minister Bill Bennett this week vowed to scale down BC Hydro’s proposed 26.4 per cent rate increase, he also ruled out any independent review of elected rates by the B.C. Utilities Commission.

“If we were to just turn the whole thing back to the commission, I’m quite positive that you would have something happen in terms of rate increases that the people of B.C. would not be happy about,” Bennett told the legislature press gallery during a conference call. “So we’re not going to do that.”

Instead the government has delegated a platoon of senior public servants to review the Hydro proposal and “grind” it down to something more palatable.

Then Bennett himself will take that recommendation to cabinet for review and final approval, whereupon the new rates will be put in place by cabinet order.

Bypassing the utilities commission is something that Hydro itself suggested in its initial presentation to the government-appointed Rates Working Group on Aug. 23.

The leaked PowerPoint presentation, stamped “privileged and confidential,” includes a warning about “regulatory process risk,” creating “uncertainty” for the utility and the government alike.

Specifically, Hydro frets that BCUC, given a chance to scrutinize the rates, “is likely to enforce rate mitigation mechanisms and/or disallow certain costs.”

The disallowed costs might include “independent power project contracts,” which Hydro says account for $135 million of its professed need for a $1-billion revenue boost. The commission might also challenge Hydro’s growing practice (encouraged by the Liberals) of putting off current spending to myriad deferral accounts, for repayment in future years.

The document goes on to speculate

that the commission might take particular exception to the account sheltering the deferred cost of negotiating, litigating and settling First Nation claims, the ones where Hydro deferred the cost of buying out homeowners along the route of a controversial transmission line in Tsawwassen and the cost of cleaning up a blighted waterway in the provincial capital.

Together those account for more than half a billion dollars in deferred costs.

Also at risk, according to Hydro, is its “rate stabilization regulatory account.”

All this could in turn lead “to uncertainty on rates and the government fiscal plan.”

The Liberal fiscal plan is heavily reliant on a steady siphoning of cash from Hydro accounts into the provincial treasury, to pay for programs. The combined take in dividends, taxes and water rental fees exVaughn ceeds $1 billion.

If the commission were Palmer to disallow any part of a proposed Hydro rate increase, the ripple effect could reduce the pool of cash available for those periodic raids on Crown corporation finances.

So, to summarize Hydro’s thinly veiled advice to the Liberals regarding any reference of this or other matters to the utilities commission: “Don’t go there.”

Not that the Liberals needed much of a reminder, given what happened the last time the commission was poised to review a proposed increase in electricity rates.

It was the spring of 2012, Hydro was looking for 17 per cent over three years, and the commission was preparing for due diligence on the request with a fullblown set of public hearings.

The Liberals, fearing the consequences of public scrutiny of their interference in everything from smart meters to green power to electricity self-sufficiency, tried to head off the process.

But the commission balked at the gov-

ernment’s heavy-handed suggestion that Hydro be allowed to negotiate a backroom deal with ratepayer interest groups, which would have bypassed the need for public hearings.

“Decisions made in negotiated settlement processes tend to be in the nature of trade-offs among the parties, each of which has its own particular interest,” wrote commissioner Alison Rhodes on behalf of a threemember regulatory panel.

“However, there is no broad representation of the existing ratepayers. Further, there is no representation of potentially affected future ratepayers. The panel considers this a public interest issue and one that is of significant concern.”

She went on to cite a range of issues that had not been publicly vetted since the last set of hearings before the commission four years earlier.

“Many of these are public policy and/ or public interest related-issues, and as such, they require an open and transparent review,” wrote commissioner Rhodes.

“The panel is not satisfied that these issues can be adequately addressed in a negotiated settlement process. Rather, the panel finds these issues are better suited to an oral public hearing process.”

An open and transparent review? Not on the B.C. Liberal watch. Rebuffed on the overture for a backroom deal, the cabinet brought out its heavy guns, and flatly ordered the commission to rubber stamp the rate increase, no questions asked.

Nor are the Liberals any more keen to have their rate regime subjected to scrutiny by those meddlesome folks at the commission this time around.

People might not like the higher rates, as Bennett suggests. But at least they’d have an independent verdict on to what extent they can be blamed on the Liberals. Which is why the commission is being neutralized once again.

World’s policeman stops for a donut

W

ell, this is odd. The heck with an exit strategy. We can’t even work out an admittance maneuver. The automatic door-opener that proved so reliable for presidents past has short-circuited and keeps slamming shut whenever Barack Obama tries to enter the war store with his empty shopping cart.

Or maybe he’s angling to be known as the architect of the modern war. A new kind with intermissions. So he augmented the fast lane with a flashing red. We got ourselves a chief executive more comfortable hitting the pause button than fast-forward. The world’s policeman stopped for a donut.

And he might just linger at the counter to flirt with the waitress.

Intent on bringing experience as father of two young girls to the international stage, the president is punishing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad by giving him a time-out. Yeah, that’ll send a message.

“Use chemical weapons on your own people and no more milk and cookies for you.

And if I hear one more word about human shields, mister, you are grounded for eternity plus two weeks.”

To all the people accusing the president

of sending mixed messages, so sorry for the rain delay in your regularly scheduled war. Hope the postponement of the cessation of human life hasn’t inconvenienced you. But you have a point. First he calls for targeted punitive strikes against the Assad government. Then, not so much. He zigs.

He zags. Instead of shock and awe, we get talk and law. How dare Obama stop and think before he bombs? Clearly he’s conflicted by the concept of Will Durst conflict.

Must be what all those liberals refer to as … diplomacy. As alien as methane rain. Some sort of socialist stunt. Which we red blooded Americans find disconcerting. The Bushes were resolute. Once their minds were set, they stayed set. Like concrete.

Even Clinton was rather lunkish. This guy, however, is limber and fluid. Much like a strawberry smoothie. Deliberation before liberation. Could set a troubling precedent.

Meanwhile, the public is confused. Exactly why are we sticking our noses up more Mideast skirts? Again. Don’t we already have enough going on over here?

And there? Of course, you think we’re

war-weary, you should talk to the Syrians.

The rebels aren’t just fighting the government, they’re forced to fend off other rebels as well. 3-D civil war from both ends.

Squared.

It doesn’t help that everything we know is wrong. Dennis Rodman is flourishing as a Goodwill Ambassador. And Vladimir Putin is now a Peace Advocate. What’s next: Kim Kardashian, the Molecular Chemistry Consultant? Mike Tyson — Poet Laureate? Tim Tebow — NFL Quarterback?

Putin offering to help is as suspicious as the wet spot on a veterinary couch. But at least we can trust Russia to tell the rest of the world whether Assad is lying about the strength and size of his chemical weapons cache. After all, they sold him the stuff.

Meanwhile, Congress slipped off the decision hook like a flippy floppy flounder.

For one brief shining moment, they can stop worrying about being nailed down on “support a strike” or “not support a strike” and get back to the important business of this country… voting to repeal Obamacare.

Again.

Serbia powers past Canada to reach Davis Cup final GAVIN DAY Canadian Press

BELGRADE, Serbia Canada’s Davis Cup run came to an end after Serbia’s Janko Tipsarevic beat Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil 7-6 (3), 6-2, 7-6 (6), giving Serbia a 3-2 win in the best-of-five tie.

Tipsarevic took a commanding 5-1 lead in the decisive tiebreak but had trouble closing out the game until match point when he desperately dove for a Pospisil dropshot.

The euphoria for the hosts started when the ball just barely made it over the net and past a helpless Pospisil, who had fallen to get to his previous shot and had to be helped off the floor.

Tipsarevic remained on the floor but it was under a pile of his teammates who piled on top of him in celebration.

As it was in the tiebreak, so it was earlier in the final set when Tipsarevic had difficulty closing out the plucky Canadian. Tipsarevic broke Pospisil in the fourth

game of the third set but faltered while serving for the match and allowed Pospisil to tie the set 5-5, giving the Canadian a glimmer of hope.

Pospisil needed treatment at 2-2 in the first set for an apparent right elbow injury. He came back and narrowly lost the first set in a tiebreak but faded in the latter two sets.

Tipsarevic broke the 41st-ranked Pospisil in the first game of the second set and held serve to see out the second.

It was the third match of the weekend for Pospisil after he opened the tie losing to Novak Djokovic on Friday before being part of the doubles team with Daniel Nestor that won on Saturday.

Tipsarevic effectively kept the 23-year-old Canadian on the run in a number of long, baseline rallies and got 65 unforced errors out of Pospisil.

Serbia is back in the final for the first time since winning the tournament in 2010. It will

face the Czech Republic, in the final round.

Earlier, world No. 1 Novak Djokovic forced the decider when he took down No. 11 Milos Raonic 7-6 (1), 6-2, 6-2 in the first match of the day at Kombank Arena.

Raonic, of Thornhill, Ont., came in with a slight ankle injury that he picked up in his win over Tipsarevic on Friday.

“I didn’t feel limited. I just felt like I was dealing with discomfort,” said Raonic in his post-match press conference.

“It was getting worse and worse, little by little and I was sort of trying to put it all out there and fight through that situation as much as I could and try to pretty much nullify it in my mind and get through as much as I can.”

Djokovic finished the two hour, eight minute long match with some sublime shot-making in the third set. Djokovic flourished on the clay court, a surface on which Raonic has had his struggles.

KOOTENAY ICE

Ice close out preseason with a win TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kootenay Ice wrapped up the preseason with a win on Sunday afternoon, beating the Calgary Hitmen 9-3 in the Coleman Sports Complex in the Crowsnest Pass.

It was the second game in the same building for the Ice over the weekend, as they dropped a 4-1 decision to the Lethbridge Hurricanes on Friday evening.

Following Sunday’s game, Kootenay reassigned forward Carter Sawicki and goaltender Jayden Sittler to Midget AAA with the Red Deer Optimist Chiefs.

That leaves the club with two goaltenders, eight defencemen and 14 forwards.

The victory against the Hitmen was the only win in five preseason games for the Ice.

Jaedon Descheneau scored twice while goaltender Mackenzie Skapski turned away 26 shots to lead the squad to victory.

“It was good to score six goals, I can tell you that,” said Ice head coach Ryan McGill.

“It was a little bit of a slow start to the game for us, but we certainly played our best period in the third period, for sure, so it was good to see and hopefully something to build off of for next week.”

Ben Thomas and Zane Jones scored in the opening frame to give the Hitmen an early lead. However, Kootenay knotted things back up after 20 minutes on goals from Luke Philp and Mathew Alfaro.

Descheneau scored his two goals in the second period, with Calgary’s Brett Brooks

notching a solo effort in between.

Riding a one-goal lead into the final frame, the Ice kept up the pressure on goals from Sam Reinhart and Collin Shirley.

Friday’s game was a different result, as Tyler Wong led the Hurricanes with a goal and an assist in a 4-1 win over the Ice. Kootenay fell to a two-goal deficit after the first period, before Shirley responded on the powerplay in the middle frame.

Giorgio Estephan and Wong added late goals in the final period to seal up the scoring.

Wyatt Hoflin stood

between the pipes, making 20 saves in defeat while Jonny Hogue turned away the same amount of shots for the win.

Ending the preseason with a win may inject some confidence into the team, but there is still a lot of hard work ahead, McGill said.

“This week is still a very important week in practice and teaching and we still have a long way to go in that regard, but you want them to at least go out happy, for sure,” McGill said.

Kootenay opens the regular season next Friday, Sept. 20th, on home ice against the Red Deer Rebels.

NHL will not review high-sticking calls this season C ANADIAN PRESS

BELLEVILLE, Ont. The NHL has reversed course and will not review high-sticking penalties this season, league executive vice-president and director of hockey operations Colin Campbell said Saturday.

The competition committee had agreed to review all high-sticking calls for validity, but Campbell said concerns about goals scored on delayed penalties led

the NHL to cancel that plan for now.

“We’re punting right now,” Campbell said in an interview with The Canadian Press. “We’re going to watch it, we’re going to talk about it and see how many times it happens. We just don’t want to do something that we weren’t totally comfortable with on video review. We want everything to be clear and precise and we didn’t think that was.”

Lions get revenge, maul Alouettes 36-14 Monte Ste wart Canadian Press

VANCOUVER - Travis Lulay couldn’t be sure how his badly he injured his shoulder.

Other than that, no complaints.

The B.C. quarterback threw for a touchdown and ran for another before leaving late with a sore shoulder as the Lions beat the Montreal Alouettes 36-14 on Sunday.

“I thought we had some good answers, and we executed some things early in the football game.”

The Bavarian Barbarians (Kimberley) won the bronze medal game with a 184-115 win over the Mountain Town Maulers (Cranbrook) in the first bout. The Avalanche City Roller Girls (Fernie) were crowned the champions after defeating the Invermere Killer Rollbots 318-71 in the final.

Nitros rattle off two wins to open season Tre vor Cr awley Sports Editor

The Dynamiters have started their newest campaign with a bang, winning their home-opener and a road game in a pair of matchups over the weekend.

Jeremy Mousseau made 28 saves for the shutout to backstop the Nitros to a 5-0 romp over the visiting Golden Rockets on Saturday night, while Brandon Bogdanek was the overtime hero, lifting the Dynamiters to a 4-3 overtime victory against the Rebels in Castlegar on

Sunday.

Kimberley peppered 36 shots on Golden in their first game, and Andrew Miller drew first blood just over five minutes into the game.

Buckley notched his pair in the second period on the powerplay, while Jason Richter and Jared Marchi also scored with the man-advantage in the final frame.

Adam Johnson took the loss in net for the the Rockets.

Kimberley capitalized four times in 10 opportunities with the powerplay, while the Rockets were shut out in

seven of their own chances with the man-advantage.

The Nitros hit the road for a Sunday afternoon game, with Bogdanek potting his OT marker to secure the second straight victory in as many days.

The Nitros emerged from the first period with a one goal lead,

after Dylan Sibbald and Richter lit the lamp, with Aaron Brewer answering for the Rebels.

Castlegar tied up the game in the second period on a goal from Darren Medeiros, and Brewer added his second of the game in the final period to take the lead.

However, Richter notched another goal on the power play with seven minutes remaining in the game to knot things up and send the affair to overtime.

Mousseau stood in goal, making 25 saves for the Nitros, while

Nate Rabbit turned away 21 shots in defeat.

The Nitros notched two markers with four powerplay opportunities, while shutting out the Rebels on four of their own.

Kimberley hits the road for a game against the Rockies next Friday evening, before returning home on Saturday for the Putt to Puck golf tournament and a matchup against the Fernie Ghostriders.

Broncos beat Giants in NFL’s Manning Bowl Barry Wilner Associated Press

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Unless they meet again in the post-season, this was the last Manning Bowl.

No less an authority than Peyton Manning says so, and why not: Peyton is 3-0 against younger brother Eli in regular-season games after Denver’s 41-23 rout Sunday of the New York Giants.

“I think both of us are glad that it’s over with,”

Peyton said after throwing for two touchdowns.

“Postseason is one thing, but I don’t think I’ll make it to the next regular season (meeting, in four years). I think this’ll be the end of it. So I’ll be happy about that. And the family will.”

Big brother didn’t need another record-tying seven touchdown passes. He got this win with a huge boost from Knowshon Moreno, who rushed for two touchdowns and 93 yards on

just 13 carries. Denver (2-0), which has won 13 straight regular-season games, ran for 109 yards altogether.

With Manning finding Wes Welker and Julius Thomas for touchdowns, and Moreno scoring on sprints down the right side, Denver dominated much of the matchup between Super Bowl MVP quarterbacks; Eli has won two titles, Peyton one. The older Manning’s first two victories against his sibling

came when Peyton was with the Colts.

“For me, it’s a strange feeling,” Peyton said. “It’s not quite as enjoyable as if you beat somebody else.”

Peyton finished 30 of 43 for 307 yards with no interceptions. Eli was 28 of 39 for 362 yards, but was picked off four times; he had 15 interceptions all of last season and has seven already this year.

After the rout, the brothers shared a very short handshake while

Page 9

surrounded by a mob of photographers and TV cameras. They had exchanged their greetings before the kickoff.

“We chatted for 10 minutes, nothing specific, just brotherly talk,” Eli said. “After that, there wasn’t a whole lot of brotherly interaction.”

The Giants also allowed Trindon Holliday’s spectacular 81yard punt return for a touchdown, the first such score in the league this season.

B.C. improved to 7-4 while avenging a last-second loss in Montreal on Aug. 22. The Lions also atoned for a loss a week earlier on the road against Hamilton.

“It feels good to get a win,” said Lulay. “It was important for us as a team just coming off of last week.”

Lulay was hurt while scoring his touchdown on a 14-yard run as he and Als cornerback Geoff Tisdale collided.

With his arm hanging low, Lulay left the game.

“It’s general (soreness) right now, and I have stiffness, so that’s what we’re going to look at,” said Lulay, adding he and doctors will see

how the shoulder responds over the next couple of days.

The Alouettes, who were held scoreless in the first half and trailed throughout, fell to 4-7.

Montreal suffered its 13th loss in its last 14 visits to Vancouver after failing to generate a resemblence of the vicious pass rush that it displayed at home against B.C. in August.

The Lions also adapted after Hamilton had followed Montreal’s cue and bombarded Lulay.

“I thought we had some good answers, and we executed some things early in the football game,” said Lulay.

“It wasn’t perfect (offensively), but the defence really set the tone. They gave us some opportunities to score.”

Lulay completed 19of-28 passes for 197 yards while also tossing three interceptions. He was credited with just one completion for minus-one yard in the second half after completing 18-of-22 passes for 198 yards in the first half.

But the outcome was never really in doubt after B.C. built a 15-0 half-time lead.

“I’m proud of my team, because we answered the bell,” said Lions coach Mike Benevides. “We haven’t lost any games back to back.

What we have to do now is get back and win a couple back-to-back games. We’ll build on this one and move on.”

The RCMP “Cops for Kids” bike riders arrived in Cranbrook Wednesday, Sept. 11, which meant was time for that annual social event of the season — the All Male Fashion show at the Tamarack Centre. This year’s event had an “East Coast Kitchen Party” theme, and was appropriately sold out with an boisterous audience. More than $85,000 had been raised so far by the Cops for Kids riders — watch these pages for updates on how the Cranbrook fundraiser went. 100 per cent of proceeds raised from the event go to the Cops for Kids charity, which in turn supports local kids in need.

Rhymes with Orange

Annie’s Mailbox

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: On a recent trip to visit my daughter, I found out that my 12-year-old grandson has taken up Irish step dancing.

What bothers me is that he dances in the girls division.

My daughter told me it began when a girls troupe needed one more dancer and he agreed to join them. He had to wear a girl’s costume, and the judges allowed it. Now my daughter is regularly entering him in competitions for girls. The last time I saw an event program, I noticed that his name was spelled with an extra “i” at the end so it appears to be female. And I have to say, dressed in a girl’s costume with wig and makeup, you can hardly tell he’s a boy.

Is this fraud? There is prize money involved. Could my daughter be sued? When I talked to my grandson about this, he said he doesn’t mind. Should I inform the judges at the next performance or just leave it be?

-- Surprised Grandmother Dear Surprised: If there is money being awarded, then yes, it is fraudulent. The first time it happened, the judges were aware that a boy was competing and allowed it. But if your daughter is disguising his gender, it puts his entire troupe at risk for elimination.

Nonetheless, we don’t recommend you get involved by reporting it. Caution your daughter that at some point her son will be discovered and there will be consequences, but what she chooses to do about that is up to her. There is no reason her son cannot compete in a boys division. (And we won’t get into the possibility that your grandson may enjoy dressing up as a girl.)

Dear Annie: We are full-time residents on a lake and owners of a pool. We are continually astonished at the behavior of some people who visit only during the summer. I’d like to address this to them for next year: When visiting your lake home, do not assume that you have an open invitation to be at our pool just because you are in the same complex. Do not come over to swim uninvited. At the very least, call to ask whether it is OK. And when you do come over, do not stay for hours and hours. Sometimes we would like to use our pool with our family. Do not come to our pool when we are not home. If you are at the pool and we leave the house, take that as your cue to pack up.

Our pool is an extension of our living space. Imagine how you would feel if you came home to find people inside your house, watching your TV. Annie, we are social people and like to entertain, but we would appreciate some common courtesy.

-- Your Private Pool Owner Dear Pool Owner: Is it possible that the folks who visit your complex believe your pool is common space, available to all?

Please don’t suffer in silence. Lock the pool gates when you aren’t home. Post a sign informing people that it’s a private pool and requires an invitation. Most importantly, be willing to tell the intruders that you’d appreciate it if they would phone first. It is not rude to make your boundaries known.

Dear Annie: As a boutique owner, I would like to respond to “Toledo,” who complained that sales associates accost her in every aisle and follow her around.

Please leave your kitchen sink-sized handbag at home or in your car trunk. When you come into my store carrying shopping bags, big coats and enormous purses, you are a security risk. My best defense is to have my associates tail you to make sure you are not stealing.

It would save us both a lot of aggravation if you would be so courteous as to come in with a small, closed handbag. -- Shrinkage Control Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Obituaries Susan Marie Clark (nee Kastelan) It is with deep regret and sadness we announce the passing of our mother Susan Marie Clark (nee Kastelan) on September 05, 2013. Susan was born January10, 1927 in Cudworth Saskatchewan.

Susan loved car rides, to many garage sales she went and if it was .25 cents and painted silver she had to have it. Susan was a very social person who loved the company of her many friends, she was always the first to help out be it card games, playing bocci at Stellar Place, baking or church functions.

Susan was a housewife who raised her four children, and in later life she joined the work force. She worked as a home support person in Edmonton and Cranbrook. She very much loved her work and helping others. Susanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s other passion was her faith. She was an active member of the CWL until she could no longer help out.

Susan is predeceased by her loving husband Leslie (1997). She is survived by her sister Peggy of Langley, brother Tony (Beth) of Creston, daughters Linda (Bruce) of Castlegar, Joanne (Les) of Edmonton, Sons David (Kim) of Castlegar, Darrell (Karen) of Yorkton Saskatchewan, grandchildren Stewart (Pam), Micheal (Stacey), Jennifer (Dennis) of Castlegar, Corrianne of Edmonton, Ben and Charles of Saskatoon, Thomas (Carrie) of Regina. And three great-grand children.

Larry the Cable Guy playing Cranbrook in January Submit ted

A blast of blue-collar humour is coming to Cranbrook.

Renowned comic Larry the Cable Guy will be performing at Western Financial Place, January 16, 2014. Tickets go on sale to the public on Wednesday, September 18 at 10 a.m.

Larry the Cable Guy is a multiplatinum recording artist, Grammy nominee, Billboard award winner and one of the top comedians in the U.S. He has his own line of merchandise and continues to sell out theatres and arenas across the United States.

Larry has created The Git-R-Done Foundation, which was named after Larry’s signature catchphrase, and has donated more than $7 million to various charities.

Currently, Larry is the host of Only in America with Larry the Cable Guy for History, which has been ordered for a third season. The show premiered in 2011 and was a huge ratings

success. In each episode, Larry visits various sites across the country, revealing bits of real history while immersing himself in new and different lifestyles, jobs and hobbies that celebrate the American experience.

Larry reunited with Jeff Foxworthy and Bill Engvall for Them Idiots Whirled Tour, which was filmed as a special for CMT and aired in early 2012.

The show was released on DVD and CD

by Warner Bros/Jack Records, debuting at number one on the Billboard Comedy Charts.

Larry, Jeff and Bill will also star in a new animated show for CMT called Bounty Hunters, which is set to premiere in the spring of 2013.

Larry’s road to stardom included the Blue Collar Comedy Tour, which grossed more than $15 million. The ensemble cast of comedians included Jeff Foxworthy and Bill Engvall.

The tour’s success led to Blue Collar Com-

edy Tour, The Movie, which premiered on Comedy Central in November 2003 and at the time, was the highest rated movie in the channel’s history. The DVD has sold more than 4 million units.

The sequel Blue Collar Comedy Tour Rides Again, has sold more than 3 million units.

In March 2006, the Blue Collar boys reunited to shoot Blue Collar Comedy Tour, One For The Road in Washington, DC at the Warner Theater.

The movie had its world premiere on Comedy Central June 4, 2006, again receiving some of the highest ratings. The soundtrack was nominated for a 2006 Grammy award.

Larry has won Billboard’s 2005 Comedy Artist of the Year and Comedy Album of the Year and he received the Billboard Top Comedy Tour Award in 2006.

Larry the Cable Guy wil be playing Cranbrook at Western Financial Place on Jan. 16, 2014.

Ikea monkey “mom” won’t get him back; judge rules Darwin is a wild animal Allison Jones Canadian Press

TORONTO — The Ikea monkey may have worn clothing and slept in his former owner’s bed, but he is still a wild animal and therefore should not be returned to the woman who calls herself his “mom,’’ a judge ruled Friday.

The minute Darwin the monkey made his great escape from Yasmin Nakhuda’s car at the Toronto furniture store in December she lost any ownership claim to him, Ontario Superior Court Judge Mary Vallee found. “(Case law) states that the nature of an animal, rather than how it is treated, determines whether it is wild,’’ Vallee wrote in her decision.

“The monkey lived in Ms. Nakhuda’s house.

He wore clothing. For a time, he slept in Ms. Nakhuda’s bed. These attempts at domestication were imposed on him.’’

But Darwin bit peo-

Darwin, known as the Ikea monkey, will remain in a primate sanctuary for now. ple, Nakhuda’s husband especially, and could not be house broken so he had to wear a diaper.

He wore a harness most of the time so he couldn’t run away.

“I have no hesitation in finding that this monkey is not a domestic animal,’’ Vallee wrote.

When Darwin escaped at the Ikea store he was scooped up by animal services at sent

to Story Book Farm Primate Sanctuary in Sunderland, Ont. Nakhuda sued the sanctuary in a bid to get Darwin back.

Since Darwin was not a domestic animal, a wild animal legal principle must apply that says a person only owns a wild animal for as long as it is in their possession, Vallee found.

In other words, once a wild animal kept as a

pet runs away, it no longer legally belongs to its former owner.

That principle dates back to 1917 and was the only case the lawyers could find that dealt with the ownership of a wild animal that has escaped.

Although that case is nearly 100 years old, the principle still applies, Vallee wrote.

“Some people do keep exotic animals as pets,’’ she wrote. “A high onus regarding provision of secure housing for wild animals is appropriate to place on their owners. Wild animals, particularly exotic ones, can be dangerous to the public.’’

It’s an issue that will resurface, predicted Kevin Toyne, the lawyer for the sanctuary.

“I think that as more and more people acquire exotic animals and treat them as pets you’re going to see more cases like this,’’ he said in an interview.

“As these cases go to

court some of these areas that weren’t really addressed in this case will probably be addressed by the courts.

Whether or not the provincial government or the federal government steps in to pass legislation that would change the law, I really don’t know.’’

Nakhuda’s lawyer’s office said she would not be commenting on the decision Friday.

After she lost previous interim bids to get Darwin back, Nakhuda left court distraught.

She recently got a tattoo, a picture of which is posted on her supporters’ Facebook page, of an image of Darwin in the shearling coat he wore during his Ikea parking lot romp and the words “My Monkey’’ in script.

Sanctuary owner Sherri Delaney was also not available for an interview, but her lawyer said Darwin will stay, at least for now, at Story Book, where he is inter-

acting with other primates and receiving high-quality veterinary care.

The case was not about what is in the best interests of the monkey, Vallee wrote.

“The monkey is not a child,’’ she wrote. “Callous as it may seem, the monkey is a chattel, that is to say, a piece of property.’’

Nakhuda had argued that animal services tricked her into signing a form surrendering her ownership of Darwin.

But Vallee found that Nakhuda was “upset, but was not unduly influenced’’ when she signed the form. She is a lawyer with 20 years of experience and would have understood what she was signing, Vallee wrote.

“She signed the form more likely because she knew that she had been caught with an illegal animal rather than as a result of experiencing any duress,’’ Vallee wrote.
