CRANBROOK CITY COUNCIL

Complaints prompt deer cull debate ARNE PETRYSHEN Townsman Staff

Cranbrook city council seemed to be tipping back into favour of an urban deer cull as councillors commented on a letter of complaint from a resident of Terra Lee Terrace.

In the letter Norm Yurchyshyn talks about the mule deer congregating around the grounds. He requests a cull as some of the elderly residents are afraid to go outside because of those deer.

Coun. Gerry Warner expressed his strong support for a cull.

“I think it’s a ludicrous situation, when we have seniors living in an apartment, as old as 96 years, and they are afraid

to go out of their house to whatever degree,” Warner said. “If and when we get to culling again I think we should try to target some of these specific herds that hang out in specific areas.”

Warner also wondered whether focusing on those groups might mean less culling in the future, as it would eliminate problem deer.

Coun. Bob Whetham said he appreciated receiving letters from the public concerning urban deer. Whetham, who is on the Cranbrook Urban Deer Management committee, said the committee makes its recommendations to council based on complaints like the ones in the letter.

The committee met on Tuesday to discuss last week’s deer count, in which the city is split into various zones and the deer counted by volunteers all over the city at the same time. The count gives an idea of the minimum number of deer in the city at the time.

“The basis of the recommendations made to council, just the same as we did in previous culls, was directed at certain specific zones where we had complaints and where we had high numbers of deer,” he said.

Coun. Diana J. Scott was happy to see deer culls being implemented in this way.

Mr. Green (Michael Grossman) is in perpetual mourning and a state of perpetual anger. But someone is about to invade, reluctantly, his fortress of solitude. “Visiting Mr. Green,” Cranbrook Community Theatre’s fall production, opens tonight at the Studio Stage Door. See more, Page 5.

A two-and-a-half-year saga comes to a close Friday, Nov. 29 with the sentencing of Randall Hopley for the Sept.

2011 abduction of three-year-old Kienan Hebert.

In Cranbrook Supreme Court, Justice Heather Holmes will hand down a decision on whether Randall Hopley is

a dangerous or long-term offender, as well as giving the 48-year-old Sparwood man a jail sentence.

Prosecution lawyer Lynal Doerksen is seeking a sentence of nine to eleven years for Hopley, followed by 10 years of supervision that would be similar to parole with strict conditions.

Skaters and hockey players are getting an early start on the winter season at Elizabeth Lake, which has been solidly frozen for more than a week thanks to the recent cold spell. The lake appears to have at least four inches of solid, glass-like ice which promises great skating conditions until the next thaw rolls in.

Crime spree results in two year sentence Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

A young Cranbrook man will spend two years in a federal prison after pleading guilty to 17 charges resulting from a four-month crime spree in Kimberley, Cranbrook, Creston and Crawford Bay. Curtis Paleologopoulos, 22, was in custody in Cranbrook Provincial Court on Wednesday, Nov. 28 facing charges including four charges of theft of a motor vehicle, three charges of theft, three charges of break and

enter, four charges of breach of probation, one charge of possession of stolen property, one charge of assault and one charge of possessing a weapon for a dangerous purpose.

The offenses began in July when someone broke into a home in Kimberley and stole gold jewellery. In September, Paleologopoulos went to a pawn store in Cranbrook in an attempt to sell 12 items of gold jewellery, four of which were identified as being items stolen from the Kimberley home.

Also in July, Paleologopoulos stole a bottle of gin from a Cranbrook liquor store.

In September, a motor vehicle was stolen from the driveway of a home in Kimberley. Paleologopoulos’ fingerprints were found inside and outside the vehicle.

Many of the charges stemmed from a crime spree on October 18.

Paleologopoulos stole a vehicle in Kimberley and drove it to Creston.

It was found abandoned at Creston Valley Hospital. He then stole

another vehicle from a home in Creston, as well as a women’s purse and a backpack containing knives from the owner’s second vehicle.

With another person who has not been identified, Paleologopoulos drove the stolen vehicle to Crawford Bay where they unintentionally crashed after falling asleep at the wheel.

They walked to a nearby residence, broke in and stole several items, including jewellery, a case of valuable historic

money, and bear spray.

They also used the hot tub at that home, but did not take a safe because Paleologopoulos said it would be disrespectful to the owners.

The pair walked to another home, where they broke into a shed and slept on a folded tarp.

Then they walked to a third property, broke in and cooked food.

They returned to the first home and stole a vehicle.

That vehicle was found in Kimberley two days later.

On Oct. 28, Paleologopoulos was seen rifling through a vehicle by its owner, who confronted him. Paleologopoulos sprayed him with bear spray, saying the man was “bigger and scarier” than he is and didn’t keep his distance.

The next day, Paleologopoulos was found with bear spray when he was arrested

by RCMP. The breach of probation charges stemmed from times in May and June when Paleologopoulos broke a

Hopley saga enters final chapter Friday Continued from page 1 Doerksen also thinks Hopley should be deemed a dangerous offender. Rarely used, the dangerous offender designation sets apart offenders of violent or sexual crimes who are deemed likely to reoffend and whose release is considered a threat to society.

Defense counsel William Thorne disagrees with that designation and suggests a sentence of five years would be more appropriate.

Hopley has been in custody since he was arrested in September 2011. Thorne thinks he should receive credit for this time in custody at one and a half times those days reduced from his sentence. Doerksen said it should be credited at day-for-day off his sentence.

During a dangerous offender hearing in Cranbrook last month, Doerksen argued that Hopley has a pattern of behaviour involving young boys, which

began when Hopley was 15 and continued until 2011, when he abducted three-year-old Kienan Hebert from his bed in Sparwood, bringing him back four days later.

But Thorne argued that Hopley’s sexual offences ended when he was in his early 20s. The abduction of Kienan and the attempted abduction of a 10-year-old boy in Sparwood in 2007 were not sexually motivated, Thorne said.

Both lawyers agree that Hopley’s sentence should be reduced because he returned little

Kienan unharmed after a tearful plea from the boy’s parents.

During Hopley’s sentencing hearing in July 2012, the court heard that Hopley chose the Hebert home for his abduction plan because he noticed toys in the yard and found the front door unlocked. Hopley also said he returned the boy because he asked to go home.

Kienan Hebert’s father Paul told Hopley shortly after the abductor’s arrest that he was like the Boogieman to Kienan and his other

children.

On September 7, 2011, Kienan Hebert’s family reported him missing after they woke up and realized their three-year-old son was missing from the home.

An amber alert was issued and emergency responders from all over the East Kootenay rushed to Sparwood to take part in an extensive search for the little boy, who was wearing nothing but Scooby Doo boxer shorts when he disappeared.

Four days later, an anonymous 911 caller

reported that Kienan had been returned to his home. In the middle of the night, the little boy was found inside the house.

On September 13, 2011, a police sniffer dog tracked Randall Hopley to a gravel pit in Crowsnest Lake, Alberta, near the abandoned cabin where he had kept Kienan for four days.

See Monday’s Townsman for the full report on Hopley’s sentencing, or visit www. dailytownsman.com after Friday afternoon.

court-ordered curfew, and his failure to pay a court-ordered fine in August.

Defense counsel Rick Strahl asked Judge Ron Webb to impose a two-year sentence for Paleologopoulos because that is the minimum required for the man to be sent to a federal institution, where he hopes to take advantage of drug and alcohol treatment programs and training.

Judge Webb agreed to a two-year global sentence for Paleologopoulos, combined for all 17 charges.

“You’re only 22 but it seems every time you show up out of jail you do something stupid,” Judge Webb told Paleologopoulos. “Essentially, a) you probably need to leave town and b) you need to grow up.”

The young man agreed, saying that he plans to move to Toronto after he is released from jail, and that many people in Cranbrook would be happy to see him go.

“You’ve got a terrible record and a reputation in the community that’s bad if not worse. You’ve got to decide if you want to get a fresh start,” said Judge Webb.

The Filipino-Canadian Association of the East Kootenay and A&W restaurants in Cranbrook, Kimberley and Invermere held a fundraising day for local families whose relatives were affected by the devastating Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines earlier this month, and the people of the East Kootenay really came

through.

As well as accepting donations through proceeding days and weeks, A&W donated one dollar from the sale of every breakfast sandwich and two dollars from the sale of every Teenburger on Friday, Nov. 22. Members of the local Filipino community came down to help out, and the whole day had a festive atmosphere.

Bob Cartier later reported that the fundraiser collected roughly $7,500 in Cranbrook, $700 in Invermere and $600 in Kimberley, for a total of $8,600.

It was determined that six Cranbrook families have relatives who have been directly affected by the typhoon, which destroyed homes in Leyte and Cebu provinces. One family in In-

“They do work and it is part of a long-term plan,” Scott said. “If you can cull a few in the targeted areas where they are a problem, and we can accomplish that, we will be culling fewer to come and they will also not be habituated.”

She was also glad to hear the conversation taking place.

“Six months ago it was a totally opposite conversation around this table,” she said.

Coun.

Denise Pallesen commented that when the city does a cull all of the meat from the deer does not go to waste.

“It goes to First Na-

tions, the Salvation Army… it’s all used. We don’t just destroy them and throw it out,” Pallesen said.

Coun. Warner also put forward a resolution asking that the city meet with MLA Bill Bennett to see how the province can help on the deer front. Council put the resolution on hold because it is still waiting for an update from Minister Steve Thomson, Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, regarding a provincial task force to look into potential changes to wildlife legislation and how it deals with urban deer.

Across the great divide, into a life laid bare Cranbrook Community Theatre’s “Visiting Mr. Green” opens tonight, Friday, Nov. 29, at the Studio Stage Door in Cranbrook

Barry Coulter

We

all know these places, and will likely inhabit them ourselves someday.

Crowded, cluttered apartments, full of the familiar, if useless detritus of our lives. The inhabitants of these places shuffle through the rooms, lost in their habits, set in their ways.

This is the room we come to know very well, in “Visiting Mr. Green,” Cranbrook Community Theatre’s latest production, which opens tonight, Friday, Nov. 29, at the Studio Stage Door.

Mr. Green (Michael Grossman) inhabits a world familiar to most of us — the world of the aged and chronically alone, whose boundaries have shrunk to the confines of four apartment walls. In Mr. Green’s case, the walls of his uncared-for New York apartment are reinforced with rage.

Mr. Green, 86, has

been sitting Shiva — the Jewish mourning period — for much, much longer than the requisite seven days. It seems Mr. Green will be sitting Shiva for the rest of his life. He has fallen into the fog of one who has given up. He seems on the point of starvation.

In perpetual mourning for his late wife, Mr. Green seems ready to die.

But then youthful Ross Gardiner (Jerrod Bondy) forces his way into Mr. Green’s Fortress of Solitude. Ross — a young urban professional, a Harvard graduate — forces his way in reluctantly, for he has been compelled to visit Mr. Green by a court of law.

And as the play unfolds, a series of vignettes establishes the relationship between the two characters, and the immense divide between the young and the old — the reluctance, in-

comprehension and impatience of youth, and the rage, the ongoing state of denial and the vast, vast loneliness of the aged.

We are all of us familiar with this relationship — some of us from both sides. It is fascinating to see it unfold and develop.

Young Ross persists — not only because of his legal requirement but because of a growing compassion and what appears to be a vast loneliness of his own.

And Mr. Green finds a sudden purchase for friendship when he discovers Ross, as well, is Jewish.

So on we go through the first act, watching a tale of a divide crossed, how relationships are established, how we can find common ground with each other, how our hearts can soften.

That is, until Ross drops a bombshell of information into the con-

The volume and the temperature begin to rise. And just as we’re getting used to it, Mr. Green drops a bombshell of his own —

The Off Centre Players present ...

Theatre troupe holding open auditions for February production B a r ry Co u lt e r

The Off Centre Players in Kimberley are gearing up for their next production, which is set for February, 2014. And they’re going to need some help.

The theatre troupe is holding an open audition, Sunday, December 1, at the Green Door in the Kimberley Platzl.

The auditions run from 2 p.m. - 4 p.m.

Elizabeth Adler, President of

the Off Centre Players and Producer for the 2013/14 season, says no experience is required — just a love of fun and live theatre.

“We are looking for actors of all kinds - and also anyone interested in helping with costumes, set building, painting, lighting, sound design and stage managing,” Adler said.

“This audition is for our next production, running at Centre

64 in Kimberley, February 11-15, 2014.”

For more information, you can contact the Off Centre Players on their Facebook page or by calling 250-908-1508.

The Off Centre Players are a community theatre company that is 100 per cent volunteer operated, and has been bringing live theatre to the Kimberley and Cranbrook area for more than 20 years.

or rather, Ross uncovers it, the secret around which the play revolves.

And then we’re just along for the ride, watching lives laid bare.

Both Grossman and Bondy display great acting skill in the portrayal of rage, grief and shock — the undercurrent of emotions that are buried below the surface, but not so far, even in Mr. Green’s case, that they

can’t be violently dug up.

And while there are only two actors on the stage, the best two-character plays bring other characters on stage, unseen and unheard, but still vital and present. So it is in “Visiting Mr. Green.”

“Visiting Mr. Green,”

by Jeff Baron, features Cranbrook actors Michael Grossman and Jerrod Bondy. It is directed

by Tanya Laing Gahr and produced by Sally Masters. Associate Director is Amanda Ball, and Technical Director is Rusty Gahr.

It runs 10 nights at the Studio/Stage Door, 11 – 11th Ave. S., Cranbrook, November 29 and 30, December 4-7 and December 11-14.

Showtime is 8 p.m.

Tickets available at Lotus Books.

recourse is therefore to tighten the sanctions more and more until Iran’s entire economy and government crumble and a completely different sort of people emerge from somewhere to take over the country.

No deal can be a good deal.

Israel’s leaders are dismayed that they can no longer keep their allies and friends pinned in this extreme position, but endlessly quoting the ravings of former Iranian prime minister Mahmoud Ahmedinejad is not enough. They would have to demonstrate that Iran actually intends to attack Israel, and they cannot. So eventually their allies just moved without them.

As Israel’s Finance Minister Yair Lapid told “Time” magazine, “We’ve lost the world’s ear. We have six months, at the end of which we need to be in a situation in which the Americans listen to us the way they used to listen to us in the past.” But the game is not over yet. Israel’s influence in the US Congress is still immense, and its Congressional allies are already talking about heaping more sanctions on Iran (in order to kill the deal, though they don’t admit that).

President Obama could veto those new sanctions, of course, but he will find it a lot harder to get Congress to revoke the existing sanctions if the final deal is done six months from now. That’s why Iran gets so little relief from sanctions now in return for its concessions: Obama needs more time to work on Congress. But Israel may still win this tug-of-war.

Sherlock Holmes and What’s Up? the Mysterious Dr. Bell It

JANUS: Cranbrook Then & Now

was late of a damp, chilly November afternoon when I entered the apartments at 221B Baker Street that I shared with my friend and colleague, the famous detective Sherlock Holmes. I was happy to escape the London fog swirling through the darkening streets and even more pleased to feel the warmth of the fire blazing in the hearth of our sitting room, lit, no doubt, by our dutiful housekeeper Mrs. Hudson.

I say “sitting room” but it was, in truth, more the personal study, office and laboratory of Sherlock Holmes, filled as it was with newspapers, case notes, personal effects, a great deal of memorabilia gathered throughout his career and, I couldn’t help noticing, a small array of chemicals and a microscope next to an envelope on the table.

The Cranbrook Eagles Boxing Club was in Spokane last weekend for the Dan Vassar Memorial Boxing Tournament. Jared Luke (above) from the Eagles Boxing Club won in his very first boxing match. Jared entered the 165 lb. sub-novice (five bouts and under) against a very game Norberto Guttierez from Wenatchee, Wash. Jared used his height and reach to his advantage in out pointing his opponent. Matt Doucet from the Eagles Club also stepped into the ring for the first time, losing a close decision to Isomar Solis from Seattle. Doucet and Solis stood toe to toe exchanging punches for three rounds of exciting boxing. Doucet was entered in the 112 lb. division. Eagles boxer Dylan Clark went uncontested over the weekend as no opponents were entered with his experience. Coaches Bill Watson, Larry Adams and coach/official Adam Gareau accompanied the boxers.

Ice trade Hubic to Tri-City Americans SUBMIT TED

Jeff Chynoweth, General Manager of the Kootenay Ice Hockey Club on Wednesday announced the Club has traded 19-year-old Defenseman Jeff Hubic to the Tri-City Americans in exchange for a seventh round draft pick in the 2014 WHL Bantam Draft.

“With Tanner Faith coming back this weekend from his injury we would have had eight defensemen on our active roster. As a three year player in this League we did not feel comfortable with Jeff being in and out of our line-up on a regular basis. Tri-Cities is down to five healthy defensemen and this trade will give Jeff an opportunity to continue his WHL career with the Americans.

We wish Jeff all the best in Tri-Cities,” said Chynoweth.

As a result of today’s

Jeff Hubic transaction the Ice are now carrying 22 players, including two goaltenders, seven defensemen and 13 forwards.

The next home action for the Ice will be when they host the twotime defending Eastern Conference Champions, Edmonton Oil Kings Saturday, November 30, at 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the Kootenay Ice office or by calling 250-417-0322.

Whitecaps helping develop youth soccer in Cranbrook BARRY COULTER

The Vancouver Whitecaps are helping grow the sport of soccer in Canada, B.C. and the Kootenays, including Cranbrook.

The Club has five satellite centres around Canada teaching skills to young players. The Kootenays is one of those centres, with sessions in Nelson and Cranbrook. Brett Adams is the recently appointed Regional Head Coach for the Whitecaps programs, and for the past 10 weeks has been running a series of skills coaching sessions for young players in Cranbrook.

Adams currently holds the UEFA A licence qualification, the highest certificate in coaching soccer.

Similar programs have been offered in the past, through affiliated companies, but Adams says this is “the first time we’ve gone in and done our own official programs.”

The program is operating with the help of the Kootenay East Youth Soccer Association (KEYSA) and Adams made a point of thanking KEYSA for their support. “They’ve helped get the players to the sessions.”

Certainly the young players have shown great enthusiasm, and turned out in some numbers. There have been four groups — Boys U9-12 and U13-17, and Girls U9-12/ U13-17.

“In each group we have anywhere be-

tween 12 and 16,” Adams said. “Each of the groups has been very successful and the numbers have been great.

Every week features a different coaching theme, tailoring the sessions to the needs of the players. The players receive feedback and an evaluation card at the end of the 10 weeks. This gives the players an idea on what they have impoved on and sets goals for the next phase.

Adams say he has have been very impressed with the commitment and application of the players, adding that there are some very talented players in the area.

The sessions have been held at Moir Park, but now that weather conditions are getting wintery, they will be held at the

Ktunaxa Nation Council Gym. “We are looking to grow soccer in the area and the vision is to have a full time presence based out of Cranbrook to offer year round support,” Adams said.

There are also opportunities for local athletes with the affiliate group in Nelson.

“Some of the players have been invited to our elite sessions in the West (Kootenay),” Adams said. “We have a prospects group, and the prospects group is our elite group. Some of them do both — they do the Cranbrook skills, but on the weekend they travel up to Nelson as well.”

This weekend coming up, the Head of Pre-residency, Bart Chofour, is attending training sessions in Nelson with the Kootenay West prospects groups. Many of the players from Cranbrook have been invited to take part in the sessions and are making the trip to Nelson.

“Bart’s our head guy, really, and he’s coming out this weekend. I’ve invited a lot of the players that have been doing really well.

“I’ve only been in the area for 10 weeks, and since then it’s grown and grown and grown.”

Phase two starts January 14/15 and ends March 18/19. Anyone interested in signing up should contact Brett Adams on badams@whitecapsfc.com.

Hockeyville is back Beloved program awarding $1 million in prizing to 16 communities across Canada Submit ted

Victoria Skating Rink in downtown Montreal represents a historic site, recognized in 2002 as the birthplace of organized hockey, yet the former arena has been replaced by a parking lot for decades – until this week.

On Wednesday a hockey rink appeared on the lot as former NHL defenseman Patrice Brisebois welcomed the public for a free day of skating to celebrate the return of Kraft Hockeyville, and to illustrate the importance of funding and maintaining local rinks in Canada.

A recent survey commissioned by Kraft Canada reveals the majority (91 per cent) of Canadian hockey parents agree their local rink is the social hub of their community, yet two-thirds say these arenas are in need of repairs or upgrades.

Over 90 per cent of those surveyed say their overall community would be negatively impacted if their rink were to close due to disrepair.

“Local rinks are at the heart of Canadian communities but we may run the risk of losing many of these precious centres if they are not repaired or restored for future generations,” said Jack Hewitt, Vice President of Marketing Insight & Services, Kraft Canada. “Kraft Hockeyville engages Canadians to preserve the spirit and passion for hockey across the nation, and that passion starts at the home rink.”

A hockey legend agrees.

“I wouldn’t be who I

am today without my local rink. Even now, it remains a huge part of my life,” said Wendel Clark, Canadian hockey legend and Kraft Hockeyville 2014 spokesperson. “Kraft Hockeyville helps people keeps things afloat. It helps towns keep rinks, fix them up and keep them community oriented.”

This year there is an even bigger opportunity for Canada’s communities to breathe new life into their local rinks through Kraft Hockeyville 2014, in partnership with the National Hockey League and the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA).

The program is back and bigger than ever, awarding a total of $1 million in prizing to 16 different communities, including: • One grand prize of $100,000 in arena upgrades and a broadcast NHL pre-season game played in the local community.

• One prize of $100,000 in arena upgrades.

• Two prizes of $50,000 each in arena upgrades for third and fourth place.

• Twelve prizes of $25,000 each in arena upgrades.

Canadian communities are invited to start preparing their submissions to vie for the title of Kraft Hockeyville 2014 with the nomination period opening January 1, 2014.

Submissions will be accepted until February 9, 2014.

For contest rules and complete program details, please visit KraftHockeyville.ca.

Don Cherry waits for Hockey Night in Canada to discuss show’s future C anadian Press

TORONTO — Don Cherry will wait until this weekend’s “Hockey Night in Canada” to weigh in on the future of the flagship hockey broadcast.

CBC says that during his “Coach’s Corner” segment Cherry will address this week’s announcement that Rogers Communications has gained national broadcast and multimedia rights to all NHL games starting next hockey season.

The high-profile hockey commentator is also expected to discuss his possible role in the new “Hockey Night in Canada.”

The iconic hockey broadcast will remain on TV for at least the next four years, but CBC will not have editorial control of the show.

That raises questions about the future of onair personalities like Cherry and his “Coach’s Corner” sidekick Ron MacLean.

Cherry said earlier this week he wasn’t sure what would happen to the show, but in a later interview with CBC, he brushed off rumours predicting his retirement.

“They’ve been saying that for 30 years,” he said.

“I know I’m No. 1 and ‘Coach’s Corner’ is No. 1 and what are you going to do?”

Cherry joined “Hockey Night in Canada” fulltime in 1981 and CBC started the “Coach’s Corner” segment shortly after his arrival.

‘Throttle Decisions’ revs up avalanche safety New video series encourages sledders to get avalanche training Submit ted

In the high-octane world of mountain snowmobiling, it takes a lot to get the attention of riders. Images of gravity-defying climbs, steep descents and massive jumps are common, as snowmobiles get increasingly powerful and nimble. These machines allow anyone, no matter their experience, to access complex alpine terrain. High in the mountains, lives depend on riders being aware of avalanche danger, skilled in safe travel techniques, and trained to handle an effective rescue.

The Canadian Avalanche Centre (CAC) has released a new video series made for

and by mountain snowmobilers that highlights the need for avalanche education. Throttle Decisions features spectacular footage shot in some of Western Canada’s best mountains riding areas, with production values that reflect the quality of other action videos from this fast-paced sport.

With strong messages from trained and experienced riders, the series takes the viewer through eight chapters that loosely follow the curriculum of a two-day Avalanche Skills Training course. Each chapter touches on essential points from the training, with a strong central message that Avalanche Skills Training is re-

quired before heading into avalanche terrain.

“We’re very pleased with Throttle Decisions

and look forward to getting it in the hands of riders,” said CAC Executive Director Gilles Va-

lade. “The videos are engaging, informative and exciting to watch.

And just as importantly,

SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL MOUSTACHE!

Movember is a month long global event in November where men grow moustaches to raise awareness and funds for men’s health issues.

The seed of an idea first sprouted over a few beers in Melbourne 2003, when two mates challenged each other to grow a moustache for the duration of November. Recruiting the support of 30 loyal friends, together they experienced a month of inquisitive conversation as a result of their newly acquired facial hair, and the power of the Mo as a conversation starter and awareness raiser was realized. This year, Movember will mark

its 11th anniversary.

One of the biggest obstacles men tackle in regards to general well-being is a reluctance to discuss the health issues they face with their partner, family, mates or doctor. Movember was born from recognition that a fun and engaging initiative could help encourage men to become more actively involved in their own health.

Cellist to play at College Submit ted

British cellist Michael Kevin Jones will give a lecture-recital at the Cranbrook Campus of College of the Rockies in the Lecture Theatre at 8 p.m. on December 4, 2013. Admission is free.

The title of the talk will be “From Johann to Joaquín: Three Centuries of Unaccompanied Cello Music.”

In it Michael will talk about and demonstrate cello technique, the repertoire for solo cello, and play music for solo cello including selections from the unaccompanied cello suites

by Johann Sebastian Bach and como una fantasia, a piece for solo cello by Joaquín Rodrigo.

British born cellist Michael Jones started to play at the age of 13. He studied at Dartington College and the Royal College of Music.

During his time in London he won prizes for solo and chamber music playing, was chosen to perform for the British Royal Family and was awarded a scholarship from the German Government to study cello under the great

teacher Johannes Goritzki in Dusseldorf.

In 2002 Michael recorded the complete Bach Suites for Solo Cello on a 1667 Stradivarius Violoncello for the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

In 2009 he was awarded the blue moon Swiss audio award for this recording and in 2012 was invited to participate in the Bachfest in South America.

Jones made his debut concert tour of Japan

and the Far East in 2007 with his cello guitar duo, the only duo of its kind in the world.

As a result of this tour, the duo was invited to perform in China during the Olympic year in 2008.

You can see Michael perform at www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ UsBSmHcwW4.

The free presentation on Wednesday, December 4 is sponsored by the College of the Rockies Guest Lecture Fund.

Rotarians and Townsman unite in disaster relief Submit ted

A humanitarian initiative by the Kimberley Rotary Club is being taken up by the Sunrise Rotary Club of Cranbrook and the Daily Townsman in order to provide aid to the thousands of victims of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines.

Tonight, Nov. 29, at 7 p.m. in the McKim Theatre in Kimberley there will be a special showing of “Despicable Me 2,” an animated Hollywood hit ponsored by the Kimberley Rotary Club and Selkirk Secondary School’s “Free the Children Team.”

Admission is $5 and there will also be popcorn and beverages for sale with all the funds raised going to purchase ShelterBox disaster kits for typhoon victims both in the Philippines and

abroad.

All funds raised from now to Dec. 23 are being matched by the Canadian government, doubling the amount that’s donated.

Because of an earthquake that hit the Philippines in October, a ShelterBox team was already on the ground in the Island Nation when the super typhoon struck Nov. 18.

Haiyan is believed to the strongest typhoon to ever make landfall and the death toll from the Category 5 hurricane now stands close to 6,000 with millions left homeless.

ShelterBox Canada aims to raise $400,000 to provide 400 tents and supplies sufficient to house up to 4,000 people in the wake of the deadly typhoon.

East Kootenay Rotarians have already raised $9,000 in online donations with some $2,500 of the total raised by the Kimberley Club alone.

But Cranbrook Rotarians are also coming to the aid of typhoon victims in the Philippines with a donation kiosk set up Thursday at the Townsman that has already collected $1,540 and plans to do more fundraising at local schools.

Townsman Publisher Karen Johnston says the daily has raised money for disaster relief before and is glad to be helping out again.

“We’re glad to do what we can to help.”

Johnston says the donation kiosk is set up on the Townsman counter and people can either drop money in a jar or make a donation by

cheque or credit card. Income tax receipt forms will be provided on the spot for all donations of $20 or more.

Cranbrook Sunrise Rotary Club President Mark Pinnell says his club is also glad to be coming to the aid of the Philippines victims. “ Providing humanitarian aid in times of disaster is what Rotary is all about.”

The donation kiosk is set up on the Townsman counter and people can either drop money in a jar or make a donation by cheque or credit card. Income tax receipt forms will be provided on the spot for all donations of $20 or more.

Kimberley Rotary Club member Graham Mann, who has anchored the club’s ShelterBox program since 2008, says he’s glad to be

working with Selkirk Secondary’s Free the Children Team.

The team has raised money before to provide ShelterBox relief in Haitai and Syria and now are intent on doing the same in the Philippines, he says.

Mann says the Kimberley club began raising money for ShelterBoxes in the aftermath of the horrific Indonesian tsunami disaster in 2008 and since then has raised $91,000 for the program.

“One of the first things people need in a disaster is shelter in order to protect themselves and their human dignity. Donors understand this and that’s why they give so generously.”

With clubs in more than 200 countries and more than a million members, Rotary

International is in a unique position to provide ShelterBox aid on a worldwide scale, Mann says.

“We’re usually on the ground within 24 to 36 hours and we get right down to work. We have a proven track record and people seem to appreciate that.”

In addition to a free-standing tent big enough to house two families of five, each ShelterBox contains cooking utensils, thermal fleece blankets, a tool kit, mosquito nets, a water filtration kit, a children’s activity pack and more.

Since the program began in 2008, ShelterBox’s have been used in 200 disasters in 90 countries and provided aid to more than a million people.

Golden students tour Cranbrook art gallery Submit ted

Golden Secondary Students visit Artrageous Gallery.

Submitted

Cranbrook and District Arts Council welcomed 16 students from Golden Secondary School through their doors to explore the portraiture exhibition and get hands-on with a portrait workshop in charcoal, led by local artist Jim Robertson.

Tanya Hobbs and her students from Golden Secondary were the first school to take advantage of the CDAC’s school tour programming, travelling over two hours to participate.

Helen Duckworth, the CDAC administrator has implemented an interactive program for visiting students and classes. Students were taken through a brief history of portraiture, participated in group critiques and examined their responses to what they saw.

“I designed these tours around models I’ve seen implemented in other art galleries, as I saw what they could do for youth in the community, and for local volunteers”, explained Duck-

worth. “The aim of the tours is not to bombard students with facts, the aim is to make art more relevant to youth again, to get them engaging with, and more importantly, just simply enjoying their art experience.

We’re fostering art appreciation from a young age which is important to do with children and teens. This makes attending galleries and museums later in life less intimidating. I’ve had many discussions with people who’ve told me they don’t often go to galleries or practice art, because they know nothing about it, and that simply isn’t true. If you know that you like a piece of art (or don’t like a piece for that matter), then you know something about art.”

After analysis, sketching practice and critical thinking, students then moved on to a workshop where Jim Robertson guided students through portraiture basics, including how to achieve realistic facial proportions.

Volunteer docents are an integral part of the programming. Docents assist with the tour, and the Golden group were lucky to have four docents on hand, to add to their gallery experience.

Helen Duckworth looks to have volunteers leading the tours themselves eventually.

“When I first came to Canada I couldn’t work, so I made a career out of

volunteering with local arts groups in Kelowna.

My experiences as a docent at the Kelowna Art Gallery under the direction of Renee Burgess are some of my fondest.

I met so many great people, artists, educators and children. I got to see and learn about art (for free!) and it was a great way to participate in my new community. I think I got just as much out of it as an immigrant to Canada who knew no one in the town, as the children did as students supplementing their art and culture education.”

School tours are available year round and can be catered to any age or developmental level. Tours are just $5 per participant, including all art materials and instruction.

Guest art instructors are not always available but each tour will also include a hands-on workshop portion.

Educators are provided with a teachers pack ahead of the class, so both students and educators can prepare and benefit fully from their visit. Classes and youth groups are welcomed, and special tours can be arranged for business activities, seniors and adult groups.

If you’d like more information, or to become a docent or volunteer artist instructor for the tours, please contact Helen via cdac@shaw. ca or call on 250-4264223.

The holidays are a time for festive decorations and special treats, but some of these seasonal items can be hazardous for your pets. To help ensure your pet has a safe and happy holiday, the BC SPCA offers the following reminders: No Bones Please: Avoid giving bones to your dogs or cats, particularly turkey bones. Poultry bones easily splinter and can cause serious injury, while bone fragments can cause intestinal blockages or lacerations; Healthy Treats: Chocolate and other sweets should not be given to animals. Chocolate contains theobromine, a chemical that can be deadly to cats and dogs, though not harmful to humans. The best thing you can do for your pets over the holidays is to keep them on their regular diet. Look for special animal treats instead of giving your animals cookies or sweets meant for people; Poisonous Plants: Many popular holiday plants are poisonous to animals including mistletoe, holly, ornamental pepper and Christmas rose. Remember to keep these plants out of reach of pets - especially birds. Poinsettias are not poisonous to pets or people.

This has been a long-standing rumour perpetuated for decades. Having said this, some pets who have a sensitivity to the latex contained in the plant may get diarrhea or even vomit if they consume parts of a poinsettia; Avoid Tinsel: If you have a Christmas tree and pets, you have a recipe for trouble. First, make sure the tree is well secured. Try to place decorations above paw height and use string to hang the bulbs instead of hooks, which are easily dislodged. If possible, use nonbreakable ornaments. Avoid using tinsel or angel hair. Cats and dogs will ingest both, which can cause intestinal problems. Cords for lights should be made inaccessible to pets - especially from chewing puppies and exploring kittens. Keep in mind that the chemicals added to the water reservoir of your Christmas tree to keep your tree living longer won’t do the same for your pet. The chemicals are toxic to animals, so keep the reservoir covered; Choking Hazards in Toys: Avoid purchasing pet toys with small or soft pieces that can be chewed and swallowed. Nylon bones tend to splinter less than plastic ones. Be sure to inspect pet toys regularly and discard deteriorating ones.

Cranbrook Veterinary Hospital is pleased to announce that

Would Jesus shop on Black Friday?

es I know, the question is a cheeky one. I saw it online this week, and I thought it might be a good way to help us think about our relationship to our habits and patterns of shopping, and our relationship to money in general.

Let’s start with Black Friday. For marketing guru Seth Godin, Black Friday is nothing more than a giant con game. He writes “Black Friday was a deliberate invention of the National Association of Retailers. It was not only the perfect way to promote stores during a super slow news day, but had the side benefit of creating a new cultural norm. Any media outlet that talks about Black Friday as an actually important phenomenon is either ignorant or working hard to please their advertisers. Retailers offer very little in the way of actual discounts, they expose human panic and greed, and it’s all sort of ridiculous if not soul-robbing.”

Godin suggests that we are being sucked in by advertisers and retailers; it’s nothing more than a slick marketing scheme. As someone who avoids the huge crowds on days like that, I would tend to agree.

What might Jesus say about this?

As you read the gospels, you’ll find out that Jesus actually had a lot to say about money. He said more about money than about sex … or faith … or Rev. Yme Woensdregt prayer. One of the things Jesus taught was that “where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” (Luke 12:34) Many people mis–read this text—as if Jesus says that where our heart is, our treasure will be there as well. That’s not what Jesus said.

He did not say that treasure follows heart. Quite the contrary, he taught that “heart follows treasure.” What you do with the treasure God has given to you will determine where your heart will be. Not the reverse.

So here’s a question for us: What

do we treasure? If you treasure electronic toys and equipment, then your heart will be there.

If you treasure fashion, I’d guess you had closets full of the latest clothes. If you treasure cars, then a three–car garage will never be enough.

Now notice that Jesus doesn’t challenge us with this teaching. He doesn’t say, “Put your money where your faith is.” Rather, it’s an observation , a simple and eloquent commentary on human nature. This is how it works with us.

Heart follows treasure. What you do with your treasure will determine where your heart will be.

This is nothing new, in fact. Social psychologists have been telling us for years that our behaviour shapes our attitudes more powerfully than our attitudes ever shape our behaviours. How we spend our money shapes our attitudes and beliefs rather than the other way around.

There is some good news in all of this. If we can understand how treasure works, we can use it to

steer our heart—at least a little bit.

We may not be able to control our heart completely, but we do have some influence over what our heart longs for.

Let me illustrate with a story about a friend. After reflecting on this teaching of Jesus, she began to pay attention to where her treasure was. She started tipping the working poor people in our society more than she used to.

Instead of a couple of bucks at the restaurant, she started tipping about 20 per cent. Instead of $2 per bag at the airport for the baggage guy, she now gives $5 per bag.

When she leaves a hotel, she tries to leave $5 for the cleaning staff.

After doing this for a while, she told me that she did not become a better person, but she did become more aware of the working poor around her. She is not more righteous, but she felt like she began to see differently. She started noticing the working poor everywhere.

She also became happier. As she became more generous, she became happier. She discovered one

of the secrets of life: generous people are more happy than non–generous people.

So would Jesus shop on Black Friday? I don’t know. But I suspect that he would shop at stores that treat their employees well. I suspect Jesus would tip the guys who carry out the new TV and the new sofa. I suspect that Jesus would also tip the pizza guy his biggest tip of the night, because the pizza guy works all day at one job, and then works at night to deliver pizza so that he can afford presents for his kids.

I don’t know this for sure. But I suspect.

One final word. I am not against having markets and money and a certain amount of choice about where I can spend my money and on what. In my opinion, they are for the most part good things.

But if consumerism becomes the place where my heart is, then I need to rethink my life.

n 1956 Avon Publishing released a book titled ‘The Loves of Liberace’ – a book promising to deliver the “inside story” of the concert pianist’s bedroom shenanigans. Oddly, the cover is a photo of Liberace kissing America’s rodeo queen Coraleen Jurian; the back of the book also features two pretty Hollywood starlets planting kisses on a smiling Liber-

ace. A long list of women also adorns the back of the book, including Lana Turner and Mamie Van Doren.

In the strain of “the lady doth protest too much,” it appears the author of the book was doing everything he could to portray his subject as flamboyantly heterosexual.

cific characters, and no plot. Although the covers promise all manner of forbidden sex acts, the sentence “Sheila made him a ham and cheese sandwich and they made love while he ate” is the raciest one out of all three books.

Even with this impressive backlist of work behind him, Leo Guild truly earned his reputation as the Ed Wood of print with ‘The Werewolf Vs. The Vampire Women.’ Guild was hired in 1972 by a movie studio to write a novelization of a horror film by the same title. He did just that, except he didn’t bother to watch the movie first.

Without any plausible connection to the film, or main characters, or coherent plot, and including the worst syntax known to mankind, Guild gives the bloodthirsty and terrifying man-eater the name “Waldo the Werewolf.”

This book is so bad it’s good--public readings of it at comic conventions have become quite common.

Guild died in 1997 at age 85. In a belated obituary, journalist Paul Collins wrote “Somewhere in heaven, an angel hooker is making Leo Guild a ham and cheese sandwich.”

Elk Valley Nordic Centre trails opening next week Tamar a Hynd Fernie Free Press

Nordic skiers in Fernie have a good reason to be excited about this winter’s Nordic ski season. The Fernie Nordic Society (FNS) will be opening a new system of cross-country ski trails adjacent to Mount Fernie Provincial Park with events on December 6 and 7.

Approximately five kilometres of new trails will be set for classic and skate skiing with four different loop areas.

One loop is more challenging with an intermediate section.

The trailhead is located at the Mount Fernie Provincial Park overflow parking area with a small warm up hut for this first season.

Thanks to agreements with private landowners, the Vale family at Cedar Development and Galloway Co. family, the Elk Valley trail system will reach the Fernie Alpine Resort boundary once phase two of the project is complete.

A bridge will cross

Fernie Nordic Society

Fernie Nordic Society has created five kilometres of new cross-country ski trails.

Lizard Creek once approval has been received from the Ministry of Forestry, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.

The project is costing $175,000 and began in December 2012.

In the bidding process for a trail designer, Norwegian trail designer Reidar Zapf-Gilje

stood out from other applicants. Zapf-Gilje is known as one of the best Nordic trail designers in the country and he does a lot of work for non-profit societies, as it is his hobby and passion.

The trail construction cost of $100,000 was funded by a grant from the Resort Munici-

pality Initiative fund through the City of Fernie. Teck donated $50,000.

“In order to maintain a high level of transparency, it’s important to have a bidding process and financial accountability,” said Megan Lohmann FNS president.

The FNS has a new partnership with the Ktunaxa Nation.

There will be interpretive signage on the trails in the future as an educational opportunity and to acknowledge the land as Ktunaxa traditional territory.

The FNS will also be able to host Provincial races at the Elk Valley Trails.

A season’s pass costs $35 for an adult, $90 for a family or $10 for an individual day pass.

These trails are for Nordic skiers only. People with dogs, snowshoes or hiking are asked to use trails on the city dike or at Island Lake where those activities are permitted.

Train derails in Invermere Submit ted

A Canadian Pacific Railway train derailed at the north end of Lake Windermere below the Eddie Mountain Memorial Arena in Invermere on Monday, November 25.

The train was carrying coal when several cars went off the rails sometime before noon. Sections of the track and several train wheels were

badly damaged or broken.

One train car in particular was leaning to one side, but no product was spilled and no people were hurt in the incident, which is currently under investigation.

Workers on scene could not offer comment, and a press release explaining the cause of the accident is still not available.

Clearing the non-native trees will benefit the elk and deer that feed on the grass and shrub understory in the open forests on Marion Creek Benchlands.

Badger, an endangered species that is found in the Columbia Lake area, rely on open grasslands for their survival, and preventing the forests from encroaching on the grasslands is an important step in their recovery as a species.

Reducing the excess trees will also decrease the risk of catastrophic forest fire.

To come out to Marion Creek Benchlands and find your perfect Christmas tree in Santa’s Forest, RSVP to 250342-5521 or canadianrockies@natureconservancy.ca.

Meet at Grandview Road at 11 a.m. to follow the NCC truck to Santa’s Forest, or contact NCC for a map to the property and drop by any time between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Please bring your own tools to cut and transport your tree: saw, gloves and ropes.

Remember to dress warmly and bring tire chains!

HOROSCOPES

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

You can’t seem to indulge someone enough, whether you are participating in the Black Friday shopping frenzy or simply hanging back with this person. Don’t worry -- there is no question about your feelings, or his or hers. Tonight: How about leftovers for two?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You can do only so much, and then you need to pull back and observe the results. Know that you can’t always tweak a situation to your liking. Screen your calls, as many people could be seeking you out. Be present in the moment. Tonight: Hang out as long as you want.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You are so upbeat about every facet of the long weekend that you might feel like a kid who is waiting for Santa. Do not forget to check in with a loved one.

Your presence makes all the difference to this person. Tonight: Finally, you are able to kick back

and relax.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Understand that it could be hard to make a family member happy. This person could be vested in staying grumpy, and there is little that you can do.

In fact, if you keep trying to change his or her mood, you can be sure that he or she will repeat this act! Tonight: Time for you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Plans made yesterday probably still will work. Getting together with a special friend over a long meal puts a smile on both your faces. Before you know it, hours will have flown by. Take advantage of Black Friday, or at least check it out. Tonight: Exhausted at home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might be quite busy dispensing funds today as you buy one great gift after another. Try to resist playing the “one for you, one for me, one for Sally, another for me” game. Schedule a late meal with a loved one before he or she leaves town.

Tonight: Slow.

Tundra

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might feel as if you are on top of the world. Make the most of today. Reach out to an old friend and make plans to get together. Each of you feeds the others’ sense of humor. Be sensitive to a loved one’s expectations. Tonight: Make it your treat.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You won’t be readily available, and you might not be in the mood to share what you are doing with others. You will get a lot questions or at least a subtle inquiry or two. Let people think what they want to think.

Tonight: Meet some friends at a favorite spot.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Make time for a special friend; perhaps the two of you can get a little shopping done together.

Investing in a common experience is important in order to keep this bond alive and well.

You’ll have a hoot together and lose all sense of time. Tonight: Take a personal night.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You have to make an appear-

ance today. You will feel better after it is done; besides, you really don’t mind meeting this responsibility. Join a loved one or friend in the late afternoon.

Choose a favorite pastime. Tonight: Be where the action is.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Some of you could be making travel plans for next month, while others might be addressing your Christmas cards. A call in the late afternoon takes you away from the reverie and into the moment. Tonight: Check in with an older relative or friend.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Be sensitive to a partner or friend. After all the socializing, you will want to kick back and relax together. Even though you might have been under the same roof for Thanksgiving, you could have very different stories to share. Tonight: Where there is good music.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I’m 16 and have been best friends with “Cindi” since second grade.

Last weekend, my parents attended a party and allowed Cindi to stay overnight. Two people broke into the house to rob it.

They tied up and gagged Cindi and then forced me to take them from room to room putting things in a sack. Before leaving, they tied and gagged me, too, leaving both of us face down on the floor. Over the next few hours, we struggled and then tried to talk and even started giggling, but mostly, we just waited for my parents to come home and call the police.

Naturally, we’ve been the “stars” at school since then, but I discovered that Cindi is telling her own version of what happened. She says I was weepy and panicky. This really upsets me. I don’t want Cindi to portray me as a weakling to our friends. We spent five hours on the floor together, but except for a few sobs, I thought we handled it well. So how do I handle Cindi? -- Bound, Gagged and Furious Dear Bound: Cindi does this because she wants to make herself look good. The fact that she does it at your expense is damaging the friendship, and you should say so and ask her to stop. You also can let your friends know that you remember things a little differently, while holding your head up and not letting it get to you. But mostly, we hope you realize how very fortunate the two of you are to have escaped this robbery unharmed.

Dear Annie: A fairly new friend and I just returned from lunch, after which I realized that a rather frequent problem has happened yet again. I’ve read your column for years and know that people write to get help dealing with family and friends. This time, the problem is me!

When I’m with others, I chatter. I tell overly detailed stories. I even strike up conversations with people around me in lines and with store clerks. It’s like I must become their friend for the duration. Sometimes before meeting with people, I tell myself that I will make an effort to control my chatter, but when I am having fun, I forget.

I really admire people who draw out conversation from others by asking pertinent questions, and I, too, want to be a person who asks and listens. Do you have any clues for reining myself in? -- Chatty Cathy Dear Chatty: The fact that you notice your chatter and wish to stop is a good sign, although you may be a little hard on yourself.

Try counting to 10 when someone starts speaking. Listen to what they are saying.

Imagine that it is a fascinating subject, and try to formulate a question or comment that allows them to expand on the topic. You don’t have to do it every time, but even once or twice during a conversation will help you slow down and focus on the other person.

Dear Annie: The letter from “New York” described dumpster diving for food. My husband is an experienced “dumpster diver,” although he doesn’t look for edible items.

We live in a small college town. Annie, you would not believe what students throw into dumpsters when they go home for the summer or move into their own apartments. My husband has found brand-new appliances, clothes, and unopened cake mixes, cereal, spices and canned meats. It’s astonishing.

We have found microwave ovens, computers, video games, patio furniture, linens -- you name it. When we were both out of work, this was a lifesaver to us. We are in a better financial situation now, but I remember those days fondly. -- Mel in Michigan Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Englishman searching for descendants of letters’ authors Chris Bush Nanaimo News Bulletin

A man in England hopes the Information Age will help him unite First World War era letters with the descendants of the woman who wrote them.

Jeff Coleman, of Watford, Britain, has been storing some family history in his attic for the last 30 years or so. The problem is, the history is of someone else’s family, which he has been trying to track down.

In 1918 a small, locked suitcase was left with the Midland Bank – now HSBC – in Watford, located just north of London, for safekeeping.

More than 60 years passed and the case was never claimed. It came to the bank staff’s attention in the 1980s during an audit when staff discovered they couldn’t trace the case’s depositor Florence Kilburn.

The case was opened to see if it contained anything of value and information that might help locate its owner.

What bank staff found were bundles of letters from Kilburn, who was born in 1896, to Stanley Victor Isaacson, born 1898, Kilburn’s boyfriend serving with the British Expeditionary Forces in France during the latter part of the war.

Since the letters had no monetary value and the bank was unable to track down Kilburn, they would have been destroyed, but Coleman took it upon himself try and find the couple.

In the ’80s Coleman had extra time on his hands to do a little investigative work.

He read some of the letters, which mostly contained day-to-day news about friends

and family and even took it upon himself to visit some of the addresses on the envelopes, but knocking on doors turned up raised eyebrows from people who, for the most part, had only moved into the homes recently or had simply never heard of the Isaacsons or Kilburns.

Ultimately, Coleman’s initial investigation came to a dead end, but it was before the Internet.

“It just seemed such a shame just to throw these things away,” Coleman said.

“We didn’t have all the Ancestry’s and the Find My Past’s and all the things that we’ve got today.”

Time passed until a family friend with a flair for genealogy decided to help out and discovered Kilburn and Isaacson emigrated to Canada.

Isaacson resumed employment at the Midland Bank after the war in 1919, but left again in February 1920.

Kilburn and Isaacson travelled from Liverpool, Britain, to Montreal in 1920 where they married on June 27, 1921 at St. John Evangelist Church.

They eventually moved to Nanaimo and lived at 255 Stewart Ave. Stanley died in 1985 and Florence died in 1988.

Florence’s last known address was 118 Wakesiah Ave. in 1986, said Sid Norman, a member of the Nanaimo Family History Society, who helped Coleman gather Nanaimo-related information about the family.

Norman discovered the couple had a son, Richard, in 1923 whose name surfaced on a 1974 voters list that showed him

Jeff Coleman hopes to reunited letters dating from the First World War with the authors’ descendents. living in Nanaimo with his wife Mary and daughter Patricia at 2973 Hammond Bay Rd. But that trail soon turned cold too and Norman was unable to find further links to possible relatives in either the Nanaimo area or in England.

Coleman still hasn’t given up on his quest to have a family reclaim part of its history.

MLA supports liquor sales in grocery stores Tom Fletcher Black Press

The MLA in charge of the B.C. government’s liquor policy review is recommending alcohol sales within grocery stores, using the “store within a store” model in place in other provinces.

Richmond Steveston MLA John Yap announced three of his recommendations Thursday, including the idea that a separate staffed area should handle alcohol sales.

He also called for no increase to the 731 private store licences that are active now, and no sales in convenience stores other than those already designated as rural agency stores.

Yap’s full report has more than 70 recommendations, but it won’t be released until the new year after cabinet has considered it.

Liquor in grocery stores was by far the most popular topic during his public consultation, which is why only those recommendations are being

Richmond-Steveston MLA John Yap announces his support for alcohol sales in grocery stores in Vancouver Thursday. made public now, he said.

NDP liquor and gaming critic Shane Simpson said Yap has promoted the popular idea repeatedly, and Thursday’s announcement appears “cobbled together” to distract attention from BC Hydro rate hikes and B.C.’s dismal job creation performance than it is about liquor sales.

“It’s been released with no supporting evidence as to how you do this,” Simpson said.

“Who gets these stores?

If there’s really a moratorium on new licences, does this mean that somebody who has a 10,000 square foot private store today is going to be told you have to give that up to get 1,000 square feet in a Safeway? I don’t think that’s going to happen.”

The Alliance of Beverage Licensees, representing private liquor stores, questioned Yap’s assertion that the change would create jobs and increase convenience.

“There are very few

places around the province you will not find a liquor store already located within 100 metres of a grocery store, and having a separate liquor checkout inside a grocery store will not improve convenience,” said Ian Baillie, executive director of the alliance.

The alliance is running a radio ad campaign saying its 10,000 employees’ jobs are at risk, and putting alcohol in grocery stores increases the chance that young people can obtain booze.

“I never had the heart to throw them away,” Coleman said. “I don’t think there’s anything of any real genuine historical interest in there, but it was just this lady – I mean all those letters – she must have written him every day.”

Anyone with any information about the Isaacsons and their descendants is asked to e-mail Coleman at j431coleman@btinternet.com.

B.C. residents back hunting for food, not trophies Jeff Nagel BC Local News

A new poll shows most B.C. residents support hunting wildlife for food but oppose trophy hunting and fur trapping.

The online survey by Insights West found 85 per cent are in favour of eating animals and 73 per cent support hunting animals for meat.

But just one in 10 support hunting strictly for sport, with 88 per cent opposed.

Killing animals for their fur had 15 per cent support and was rejected by 81 per cent.

The topic of trophy hunting gained prominence earlier this fall when B.C.-born NHL player Clayton Stoner shot a grizzly bear while hunting with a licence issued by the province as part of an annual lottery.

The bear’s nickname was ‘Cheeky’, and it was being documented by filmmakers from Coastal First

Support for hunting for food was strongest among men and the middle-aged, but even 68 per cent of women said they were in favour of it.

On trophy hunting, 82 per cent of men and 94 per cent of women opposed the practice.

Respondents to the

online survey were less strongly decided on the keeping of animals in captivity.

Fifty-six per cent told Insights West they were in favour of keeping animals in zoos or aquariums, although most of them were only “somewhat” rather than “strongly” supportive.

And 38 per cent supported using animals in rodeos.

Comet ISON probably didn’t survive close encounter with sun

THE 2014s ARE HERE

ASSOCIATED PRESS

STOCKHOLM, Sweden — Scientists say it appears a comet from the fringes of the solar system didn’t survive its close encounter with the sizzling sun.

Images from NASA spacecraft showed Comet ISON approaching for its slingshot around the sun on Thursday, but nothing coming out on the other side.

In a Google+ hangout, U.S. Navy solar researcher Karl Battams said “ISON probably hasn’t survived this journey.”

Phil Plait, an astronomer who runs the “Bad Astronomy” blog,

NASA photo

Comet ISON can be seen headed towards the sun in the middle of the photo. agreed, saying “I don’t think the comet made it.”

Still, he said, it

wouldn’t be all bad news if the 4.5-billionyear-old rock broke up into pieces, because as-

tronomers might be able to study the pieces and learn more about comets.

2014 RAM 1500 REGULAR ST

Watchdog says Google breaching Dutch privacy laws THE HAGUE, Netherlands — A Dutch privacy watchdog says Google has been breaching the country’s law on personal data protection since it introduced a new privacy policy last year.

Jacob Kohnstamm,

chairman of the College for the Protection of Personal Data, said Thursday that Google’s combining of data from different services, including surfing multiple websites, to tailor ads “spins an invisible web of our personal information, without our

permission, and that is outlawed.”

Kohnstamm’s organization says it has invited Google to a hearing after which the watchdog will decide on possible enforcement action.

Google spokesman Al Verney says the company’s privacy policy

“respects European law and allows us to create simpler, more effective services.”

The Netherlands is one of six European nations investigating Google’s privacy policy along with France, Spain, Germany, Britain and Italy.

Last surviving member of Kennedy WWII rescue dies ASSOCIATED PRESS

GREENVILLE, S.C. — The last surviving member of the crew that rescued John F. Kennedy from an island in the Pacific Ocean during World War II has died.

Guy Gardo said Jack Gardo died in his sleep at his Greenville home Wednesday. He was 87.

The younger Gardo said his father had suffered from dementia for the past six years.

Jack Gardo’s PT-157 was sent to rescue the survivors of PT-109

after the patrol torpedo boat was rammed in the middle of the night by the Japanese destroyer Amagiri off the Solomon Islands on Aug. 2, 1943.

Two crew members were killed; Kennedy, who assumed command of the boat in April of that year, led the survivors to nearby islands until they could be rescued.

Gardo had said he and his crew learned where the survivors were after a native islander arrived with a coconut on which

Kennedy had scrawled their location.

Guy Gardo said his father joined the U.S. Navy at age 16 after he forged his father’s signature.

“You couldn’t ask for a better father than him,” Guy Gardo said.

“He treated us like gold. I’m going to miss him.”

Among the survivors are Jack Gardo’s wife, Guynell; a daughter; and two great-grandchildren.

A funeral is scheduled for Monday.

German ‘lost art’ register posting another 101 works from Munich art find online ASSOCIATED PRESS

BERLIN — German authorities are posting online another 101 works from the huge trove of art found at a reclusive collector’s apartment in Munich, bringing the total so far to 219.

The task force looking into the find said Thursday that prosecutors in Augsburg have cleared

drawings and watercolours by artists including Edgar Degas, Paul Cezanne, Pablo Picasso, Eugene Delacroix, Honore Daumier and Albrecht Duerer for posting on the official “Lost Art” website.

They’re among the works officials believe may have been seized under the Nazis.

Authorities found more than

1,400 works of art at Cornelius Gurlitt’s Munich apartment last year while investigating a tax case.

Prosecutors are checking whether up to 590 pieces were seized by the Nazis.

Officials started gradually posting the works online earlier this month.
