Kimberley cull done after traps damaged Invermere deer advocate charged in Kimberley trap tampering incident

Kimberley’s 2014 cull of 30 mule deer is effectively over as four of the five clover traps being used were vandalized and damaged on February 27.

Devin Kazakoff, a founder of the Invermere Deer Protection Society, is one of two men charged over allegations of deer trap tampering in Kimberley last week.

Kazakoff and another man, Lucky Gene Sikora, appeared before a Judicial Justice of the Peace in Cranbrook on

Thursday, Feb. 27 on charges of mischief, and disguising the face with intent to commit an offence.

They were released from custody and will next appear in Cranbrook Criminal Court on May 20 to consult legal counsel.

They were released with a $1,000 bail under a number of strict conditions which include: not to enter the City of Kimberley; not to be within 500 metres of a Ministry of Forests or Ministry of Environment office or facility in B.C.; not to be within

500 metres of any lawful deer trap facility; to report to a bail supervisor and abide by a curfew from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

According to RCMP, two men were arrested early on Feb. 27 after they were observed damaging a deer trap in Kimberley and fleeing the scene on foot and then in a vehicle.

Police tracked the vehicle to a side road south of Kimberley and took the two men into custody.

A police dog found netting from traps nearby, and a search of the

Forum for Women entrepreneurs

Program aims to help local businesswomen A r n e P e t rys h e n Townsman Staff

“What we’ve been doing for the last 12 years is providing education, mentorship and empowerment to women entrepreneurs.

This could be someone who either started a company a year ago to someone who has been in business for 15, 20 years.

Lisa Niemetscheck “This year we’re really trying to expand the reach of our program,” Niemetscheck said. “The last 12 years we’ve been running it in Vancouver and for the most part it’s been women from the Lower Mainland in it.”

Then last year they condensed the program from a six month weekly meet to an intense four day forum.

She said this year they want to attract more women from places like Cranbrook.

The FWE is a Vancouver-based not-forprofit organization founded in 2002.

“What we’ve been doing for the last 12 years is providing education, mentorship and empowerment to women entrepreneurs,” she said.

The program is for women who already have businesses, but don’t yet have the education or connections to further grow their businesses.

“This could be someone who either started a company a year ago to someone who has been in business for 15, 20 years,” she said.

The classes are usually as small as 15 to 20 people.

Niemetscheck said participating in the forum bodes well for businesses, as 89 per cent of companies that attended the series are still in business, compared to the national average of 50 per cent of businesses. The program also includes 14 months of mentorship and an FWE year membership.

Earlier this month, 10 clover traps were stolen from a government compound in Cranbrook.

Police

found seven of the traps in bush nearby but six had been destroyed in a fire. Three remain missing. No arrests have been made in the Feb. 9 incident.

Mayor Ron McRae said with only one trap left, the cull is over.

“We can’t do an effective cull without sufficient traps. In effect the cull is done. The permit will run out and we will not seek an extension.”

McRae said that with the traps damaged in Cranbrook after a break in to the government yard in February, he didn’t believe there were any other traps left.

He did not say how many deer had been culled before the traps were damaged.

NATURAL FACTORS NIACIN Since the 1950s, Niacin (vitamin B3) has been known to lower blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. In fact, in numerous clinical studies Niacin has demonstrated better overall results in reducing risk factors for coronary heart disease than other cholesterol-lowering agents, including statin drugs.

Many people are reluctant to use Niacin because at the dosing levels recommended to lower cholesterol, it causes a hot, itchy skin reaction known as the “Niacin flush”. Niacin has been shown to lower the levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol as well as the levels of the more harmful Lp(a) lipoprotein, triglycerides, and inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, etc.) while simultaneously raising HDL (good) cholesterol levels. Niacin reduces LDL cholesterol by restricting the liver’s production of VLDL, a precursor to LDL cholesterol, while increasing the particle size of LDL cholesterol from the smaller, more dangerous dense form, to a larger more innocuous form that is less associated with coronary artery disease. form Many experts now believe that consuming vitamin supplements in liquidThis form is of Niacin is a cutting edge intermediate release FLUSH FREE Niacin which gradually substantially more benefireleases cial thanNiacin relyingover on solid pills-a belief that is supported a 6–8 hour period and rivals prescription drugs for by research studies:“liquid supplements contain the nutrients in a more highly lowering LDL cholesterol.

Cranbrook is a town of many entrepreneurial women, something recognized by the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs (FWE). The forum is hoping to attract more women entrepreneurs from places like Cranbrook and is offering, in partnership with Teck Resources, is offering grants of $2,500 to women entrepreneurs seeking mentorship and support to grow their business.

The deadline for grant application is March 10.

Lisa Niemetscheck, general manager of the Forum for Women Entrepreneurs, said there is particular interest in having Cranbrook women attend this year as Teck Resources noted many viable business opportunities in the city for emerging female entrepreneurs.

The $2,500 grant goes towards travel and admission to the four day FWE ESeries program in Vancouver. The program connects emerging entrepreneurs with successful veterans to gain insight into growth plans, marketing, HR, sales, culture and other challenges that arise while

creating a viable business. There are 15 grants available.

The program runs from April 8-11.

vehicle found items police believe were used to tamper with the traps. Four traps in total were damaged.

Kazakoff ’s Invermere Deer Protection Society sued the District of Invermere in 2012, claiming that council failed to properly consult residents before deciding to carry out a deer cull.

The civil suit was defeated in B.C. Supreme Court last November.

That same month, Invermere voted to go ahead with deer culls in a referendum, with 74 per cent in favour of the deer management strategy.

The Invermere Deer Protection Society is a member of the B.C. Deer Protection Coalition, which has been outspoken against culls

Meet at the Crossroads, Bone Thugs coming to town Arne Pe tryshen Townsman Staff

It was quite a surprise to fans of 90s hip hop when local HM Productions announced that in March it would be bringing Bone Thugs-n-Harmony to play a St. Patrick’s Day show.

According to the Bone Thugs-n-Harmony website, the show is the only other Canada show apart from Calgary.

Isaac Hockley, one of the owners of HM Productions, said they deal with a number of agencies that present options for shows as they come up.

“That was the one that stood out,” Hockley said. “When people heard about it they laughed — it’s kind of humorous right? I mean it’s the Bone Thugs.”

Bone Thugs-n-Harmony have recently released a new album.

“It’s 90s rap — it’s not new age that’s for sure,” he said, adding that he agreed it would a bit of a blast from the past.

“I’m almost 30 and that’s what we used to listen to in high school. I grew up listening to them. They were huge in the 90s and even in our grad year, we used them for our grad song.”

Bone Thugs-n-Harmony featuring Wish Bone and Krayzie Bone will be playing St. Patrick’s Day on March 17 at the Eagle’s Hall in Cranbrook.

That song was “The Crossroads” from 1996.

“It’s kind of fitting too, because we’ve had a few close friends pass away in the last few months here and it’s kind of hit Cranbrook pretty hard in our age category,” he said.

“So that was another reason when we saw the Bone Thugs thing — ‘Crossroads’ is their number one song and it’s to their fallen friend.

It will be cool to see them play that song live for sure.”

Hockley said that when he got the call from their agency, it worked out that it landed on St. Patrick’s Day. He said otherwise he would never plan a Monday night show.

“Ticket sales are actually

doing pretty well already,” he said.

On March 13, HM Productions will be bringing in the Real McKenzies.

Hockley the band was the first concert he ever went to so he’s pretty excited about them coming here.

“We skipped school.

I was 17, we just got our licences, and they were opening up for Rise Against in Calgary,” he said. “We saw them and they were actually better than Rise Against.”

He said he had an opportunity to see them last year in Nelson and they still “kill it” on stage.

“That’s kind of our St. Patrick’s Day Party,” he said. “The Real McKenzies, they’re pretty wild on stage. They are known for being kind of a rock punk show with kelps and bagpipes and fiddles. They are a seven piece band. As soon as I

He said personally he is more excited about The Real McKenzies.

Tickets for the March 13 show are $15.

Tickets for Bone Thugs-n-Harmony on March 17 are $25.

Both shows are at the Eagle’s Hall.

“The nice thing about this is we signed a contract with the Eagle’s Hall because they needed more stuff going on in there,” he said. “When we signed the contract the idea was to help them out.”

He said the shows are more about fun for the community than a money making venture.

They will be bringing in six acts in the next half year.

“We’re excited, we have some really good ideas fro bands coming in,” he said.

The THEATRE

CCT looks at the plight of the outsider Townsman Staff

Cranbrook Community Theatre is taking on the predicament of the outsider in its upcoming comedy “The Foreigner,” opening April 3 at 7:30 pm at the Studio/ Stagedoor Theatre in Cranbrook.

“The Foreigner” is the winner of two Obie Awards, Best New American Play and Best Off-Broadway Production. It’s an uproariously inspired comedy that celebrates our curiosity and empathy for the outsider.

Canadian Charlie Baker, self proclaimed “world’s dullest man,” takes a vacation at a rural fishing lodge in the state of Georgia, with his eccentric French Canadian Army buddy, Froggy LeSueur.

Froggy concocts an outrageous scheme to save Charlie from his pathologically shy self by introducing him as an exotic “foreigner” who can’t speak English.

It isn’t long before Charlie’s guileless per-

sona backfires and the mix of good hearted, slow-witted, and devious lodge guests share their deepest secrets and most sinister plans.

What ensues is a series of hilarious and heartwarming revelations, which leads to the ultimate good guys vs. bad guys climax.

The Cranbrook Community Theatre production is directed

by David Stock, who has done many plays for them in the past. It has a great cast and crew featuring such well known performers as Jeff Cooper, Jennifer Inglis, Marge Kemp, Jerrod Bondy, Barry Coulter, Sean Swinwood, Mitchell Graw, Harrison Ford, and Sean Cloarec.

The play runs April 3 to 5, 9 to 12, and 16 to 19th at the Studio/ Stagedoor Theatre on 11th Avenue. Note the start time of 7:30 for all the performances.

Mark the dates on your calendar for a very funny evening out.

Letters to the Editor Cranbrook Transit The importance of the transit system in Cranbrook needs to be brought to attention immediately.

I myself take the bus everyday for school and other errands. While taking the bus, I can attest firsthand how important the transit system is to our community. I see many mothers and fathers with strollers, disabled people with walkers and wheelchairs, many students, and the elderly who rely on the bus their every day mode of transportation.

The elderly in our community are the foundation of Cranbrook and deserve the respect from this city, and the freedom to retain their dignity and independence by having their own way of getting around in their daily lives when driving their vehicles is no longer a safe option—the city bus.

Seniors are only the first of several groups who use the transit system in their everyday lives. Mothers with strollers also require taking the buses, not only in the summer, but in the more dominant winter

season as well. In Cranbrook, the sidewalks are often difficult to navigate with the snow and ice hindering a safe passage to their destinations.

Along with mothers and their strollers, people who are in wheelchairs, walkers, or use canes also rely on public transportation for their personal independence and everyday use. There are college students — local and international — who need the bus to get to and from the school. The list of people and reasons why the transit system is imperative to Cranbrook, go on and on.

Perhaps a reminder to the city council is required to further demonstrate how important the bus service is to the people of Cranbrook of every walks of life and why.

Information taken from “Mountains of Opportunity Cranbrook” on Cranbrook.ca shows how widespread Cranbrook is becoming. The population (city proper): 19,319 (based on 2011 Stat Canada Census). The population (Cranbrook and surrounding rural areas): 25,753. Service Population (within 150-km drive):73,000 (approx.) Area of Municipality (2011):

31.95 square km.

In other words, Cranbrook is growing and is constantly attracting visitors from all over the world to explore Cranbrook; some even choose to remain for an education at our beautiful College of the Rockies.

To remove or even reduce the transit service would hinder people in Cranbrook tremendously, for this city has become too widespread for those unable to walk, to navigate the entire perimeter.

Furthermore, it would demonstrate that those who wish to make careless changes to a vital part of Cranbrook have absolutely no idea of its importance.

Of course, those with vehicles would not be affected either way. Why should they care, right? Those persons who whine and complain about the transit system obviously have no idea of just how important the buses are to Cranbrook.

Please leave the transit system alone; those without a vehicle need it.

Turkey’s Erdogan at bay It’s a “treacherous attack” and a “dirty conspiracy,” claimed Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose image as a devout Muslim and an honest man is the key to his political success. But he didn’t deny that the voice on the recordings was his, nor that the other voice was that of his son Bilal. He explained the phone-calls by saying that they were a “shameless montage” of various things that he and his son had said in other, quite innocent conversations.

The four telephone conversations allegedly took place on 17 December, the same day that the Turkish police arrested the sons of three cabinet members in Erdogan’s government for corruption, bribery and tender-rigging.

This might easily have caused some alarm in the families of other cabinet members, especially since the dawn raids also uncovered large sums of money whose presence in the sons’ houses was hard to explain.

In the alleged phone calls on 17 December, the prime minister is asking his son Bilal to dispose of millions of euros in cash that are currently sitting in a house somewhere. Bilal is to entrust the money to several businessmen for safekeeping, and make sure that none is left in the house. In the first 24 hours after somebody posted these conversations on social media, they got 1.5 million hits.

Now, if the calls are genuine, they were probably recorded by people who knew the arrests were going to happen on that day. (It’s unlikely that anybody was tap-

ping Bilal’s phone all the time, and it’s too hard to tap a prime minister’s phone.) So there is definitely a plot to hurt Prime Minister Erdogan – but it might be a plot whose weapon is the truth.

Here we have either a panic-stricken prime minister instructing his son to hide the evidence of massive corruption — or a “shameless montage” that strings bits of innocent conversation together to lead people to a false conclusion that slanders the prime minister. Which is it?

Well, it all sounds Gwynne normal topretty me.

What son has Dyer not had occasion from time to time to tell his father that there are still 30 million euros to be removed from the house? What father does not sometimes have to warn his son not to go into details on the phone, as the line may be tapped?

But some people have nasty, suspicious minds.

The phone calls are just the latest episode in a cascade of events that has shredded the carefully constructed image of Erdogan’s government, which has won three elections in eleven years with steadily increasing majorities. The trigger for these events, according to most observers, was a bitter but unexplained split between Erdogan and his erstwhile friend and political ally, the Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Gulen, who lives in self-imposed exile in the United States, leads a conservative religious movement known as Hizmet (Service). It has millions of followers, and its help is seen as vital in Erdogan’s election victories. The split between Erdogan and Gulen is allegedly due to the latter’s criticism of official corruption in large construction and real estate projects – and Hizmet is said by critics to be particularly influential among the judiciary and the police.

Erdogan certainly saw the arrests on 17 December as a direct attack by Gulen on his authority. He immediately retaliated by dismissing the senior officers on the Istanbul police force who ran the financial crime, organised crime, smuggling and anti-terrorist departments. The purge rapidly grew until some 2,000 senior police officers across the country had been fired, suspended or moved to traffic duty.

Erdogan has had too much power for too long and he has become arrogant and reckless, but few people could have foreseen that he would end up involved in such a massive corruption scandal. Nor is his response to the crisis reassuring: firing policemen, hobbling judges and prosecutors, and blaming it all on “dark circles” of plotters.

This is not the behaviour of an innocent man facing unjust accusations. It is the behaviour of a cornered rat.

Dynamiters push Fernie to the brink of elimination TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Kimberley Dynamiters are one game away from heading into the next round of the KIJHL playoffs.

Fernie picked up a 3-1 win on Friday in Kimberley, but the Dynamiters won the rematch in Fernie on Saturday in overtime.

Kimberley now leads the series 3-1 and have a chance to close it out on home ice on Monday night.

Down 3-2 heading into the final minute on Saturday night in Fernie, Bryce Perpelitz scored a clutch goal with 10 seconds left on the clock to tie the game and force overtime.

Tristan Pagura was the overtime hero, ending the game at 3:31 of the extra frame.

Fernie jumped ahead to an early first-period lead on a goal from Kale Johnston and a powerplay marker from Dylan Robertson.

The Riders padded their lead in the second frame on a goal from Josh Oderlein, before Kimberley cut into the lead with a powerplay goal from Tyler Garcia.

Garcia notched his second of the game after the halfway mark of the final frame, setting up an exciting finish as Nitros goaltender Jeremy Mousseau headed to the bench for the extra attacker with 1:40 remaining on the scoreboard.

Mousseau made 20 saves during the game, while Phoenix Logan-Hill turned awe 32 shots for Fernie.

Both teams scored once on the powerplay; Kimberley had five chances with the man advantage, while Fernie had four.

The contest also featured the return of Kimberley captain Darren Martin and Fernie forward Aiden Geiger, both of who were suspended for three games for a staged fight in the final meeting of the regular season.

The night before, on Friday, Kimberley dropped the only game of the series so far after a

stellar performance from Logan-Hill helped Fernie to a 3-1 win.

In a pre-game ceremony, Perpelitz was honoured with the Eddie Mountain Division defenceman of the year award.

Perpelitz had nine goals and 22 assists in 37 games with the Nitros this year, making him the team’s highest scoring defenceman.

“It means quite a bit as a 19-year-old playing, moving on after this, going to school and all that—I think it means a lot,” said Perpelitz.

“I think I’m more proud of my teammates right now, keeping the playoffs alive right now, and I couldn’t have done it without them.”

After losing the first two games of the series, Fernie came out with some jump and Ben Primeau scored the first goal on a tough Kimberley giveaway in the neutral zone.

In the second period, a controversial icing call was made on Kimberley. Fernie won the faceoff in Nitro territory and Spencer Bender promptly made it 2-0 for the Riders.

Kimberley got on the board in the third period on a powerplay goal, with Garcia feeding Pagura, who sniped the short side top corner to make it a one-goal game.

However, five minutes later, JJ Beitel restored the two-goal lead, which Fernie rode to the win.

Logan-Hill was practically unbeatable, making 43 saves for the win while Dynamiters netminder Mousseau made 19 stops.

Both teams had five chances with the man advantage; Kimberley scored once, and shut out Fernie on all their powerplay opportunities.

“We had the momentum of the game, the whole game,” said Perpelitz, “we just didn’t have any puck luck going for us. We had it in their end the whole game and we fought through it, just couldn’t bury so it’s a tough loss.”

KOOTENAY ICE

Ice return from final major road trip TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

Two out of three isn’t too bad.

The Kootenay Ice returned from their last major road trip of the season with two wins and one loss after heading into the Prairies for a trio of games in Saskatchewan.

The Ice beat the Warriors 5-1 on Wednesday, then downed the Blades 4-2 on Friday, only to lose by the same score to the Prince Albert Raiders.

Missing the scoresheet against the Raiders, Ice captain Sam Reinhart streak has ended, setting a new franchise record at 22 games with

either a goal or an assist. At 15 games, he also now owns the franchise record streak for assists.

After scoring the first two goals of the game, Kootenay gave up the next four as Prince Albert completed a comeback in the second and third periods.

Zach McPhee and Levi Cable gave the Ice a 2-0 lead, but Dakota Conroy and Carson Perreaux tied it up after 40 minutes.

Leon Draitsaitl, a highly touted prospect for June’s NHL draft, scored the go-ahead goal early in the final frame, and Reid Gardiner added some in-

surance with 3:19 remaining in the game.

Mackenzie Skapski took the loss in goal, making 23 saves, while Nick McBride picked up the win with 25 stops.

Always a low-penalized game between the two teams this season, Perreaux served the only minor infraction whistled down all game,

which Kootenay failed to capitalize on.

It was a bit of a reverse situation the night before in Saskatoon, where the Blades opened the scoring with a pair of goals, before the Ice roared back by scoring four in a row to pick up the win.

Cam Hebig and Graham Millar scored two quick goals for a 2-0 lead for the Blades before Tim Bozon put Kootenay on the board by the end of the frame.

Luke Philp tallied a goal in the second period, while Landon Peel tallied the go-ahead goal in the the final frame. Landon Cross added the insurance

with an empty net goal in the final 90 seconds of the game.

Wyatt Hoflin got a rare start for Kootenay, making 31 saves for the win, while Troy Trombley turned away 39 shots in defeat for Saskatoon.

Kootenay sits in fifth place in the Eastern Conference as they struggle to catch Medicine Hat in fourth place.

The Tigers are proving to be difficult as they continue to win, which has given them a relatively comfortable seven point lead.

The Ice will get a chance to play in front of a home crowd on Tuesday when they host the Red Deer Rebels.

Stoughton rink remains undefeated at Brier C ANADIAN PRESS

KAMLOOPS, B.C. - Two winless rinks gave favourites all they could handle Sunday night, but Manitoba’s Jeff Stoughton and B.C.’s John Morris pulled wins out of the hat with final rocks at the Canadian men’s curling championship.

“Nothing like being one down coming home and hav-

ing an open hit for a bundle,” said Stoughton, after his 9-5 win over James Grattan and New Brunswick at the Tim Hortons Brier.

“We had a really thin double in nine to take three and just paper ticked it and didn’t get it out. That’s just the way it goes sometimes, you’re just a quarter inch off here and there and we got it finally in the

10th.”

Stoughton improved to 4-0 at the top of the standings but he was down a point coming home and hit to score five in the 10th end.

Morris, meanwhile, also had trouble with winless Jamie Murphy and Nova Scotia and was down a point coming home in 10.

But third Jim Cotter’s final

rock scored three to give them an 8-6 win and improve their record to 3-1 just behind Stoughton in second place.

Cotter throws fourth stones.

They started by giving up their second four ender of the day in the second end.

“That’s the first time in a bonspiel we’ve given up one four-ender let alone two in a day,” said Morris.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Don’t be surprised to wake up in a cranky mood, as your dreamtime occurred under some hard planetary vibes. Try not to act on your feelings. A discussion with someone very similar to you could open up an interesting issue. Tonight: All’s well that ends well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

You could be strong-willed about a personal matter and end up bullying everyone into his or her respective corners. Is that what you really want? By late afternoon, once you have calmed down, you will need to act. Tonight: Someone close to you might not be anxious to talk.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Zero in on what you want. A partner could become controlling, which might provoke quite a response from you. Is it possible that you are channeling some of your distress about another situation into this one? Try to look at the long term. Tonight:

Get into a lighthearted pastime.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)

Pressure seems to build to an unprecedented level. The unexpected could occur when dealing with a key associate.

A partner might get very controlling as well. Keep your cool, and know that everything could change quickly. Tonight: In the limelight.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You tend to be present in the moment while still gaining an overview of the situation. Someone might push you hard to get his or her way. The results will be that you distance yourself from this person. Honor a change of pace. Tonight: Let your imagination run wild.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

Deal directly with someone whom you care a lot about. You might want to tap into your creativity when dealing with this person. Push comes to shove with a new friendship. Someone could be jealous of the time you spend with your new friend. Tonight: Opt for togetherness.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Tundra

You might need to defer to a key person in your life. An effort to work together could seem feasible initially, but you’ll need one person to be in charge; let it be the other person. Use your intuitive sense with a health or work matter. Tonight: Say “yes” to a suggestion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You have the strength to continue like the Energizer Bunny. Just the same, someone could throw a boomerang in your path. Jump over it, and don’t let it trip you up. Be aware of what others are asking, but don’t interfere with the completion of a project. Tonight: As you like it.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to let go of plans and let your spontaneous personality take over. Passion consumes much of your time, whether it be a certain topic, person, pastime or sport. Consider incorporating more passion into your daily life. Tonight: Kick up your heels.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll want to understand what is happening with a close loved

one. You can push and prod to get answers, but know that this manipulation could backfire.

Though you might find it difficult to play it loose with this person, you’ll need to. Tonight: Happiest at home.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Keep communication open, and try not to make any judgments.

Listen to what others are saying, and imagine what it must be like to be in their shoes; your understanding will evolve as a result.

A boss or parent could be touchy or withdrawn. Tonight: Be available.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. You might not like what you hear at first, and you’ll wonder what would be best to do. Keep a conversation lively yet open. Refuse to replay a difficult situation over and over again in your head. Tonight: Make it your treat.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My sister complains that our mother (who can be narcissistic and self-centered) has never reached out to her son. “Mitch” is now 25, and Mom has never tried to get to know him. Mom sent my daughter (now 33) on trips to Europe and would visit us often, but did not do the same for Mitch.

Mitch is not easy. I used to send him gifts for birthdays and other milestones and never received any response, so I finally stopped. In person, he is monosyllabic and quiet. When he was 2, I remember seeing him bite my sister and throw tantrums.

Mitch is very bright. He’s been in college off and on for the past six years, but still has not finished his degree. I am fairly certain that he was into pot through high school and may still be. He has never had a real job, although he’s worked part-time temp positions.

My sister’s relationship with our mother has always been slightly problematic. She is now divorced and struggling financially, and my mother is well off.

Mitch could use help with tuition and books. When I suggested that he call or email his grandmother occasionally to let her know what’s going on in his life, my sister became angry. She blames Mom for never reaching out to the “child” and claims a normal grandparent would show an interest in her grandson. She insists the onus is on the adult in the relationship. Is there an answer to this dilemma? -- Confused Sister and Aunt Dear Confused: First of all, let’s eliminate what Mitch did when he was 2. It is ridiculous and unforgiving to stigmatize a child as “difficult” because he bit and threw tantrums as a toddler. And yes, your mother should have made an effort to know and love her grandson regardless of how difficult he may have been.

That said, however, Mitch is an adult now and is responsible for his own behavior. If he believes his grandmother doesn’t care about him, he’s unlikely to email her. If your sister reinforces the idea that it’s Grandma’s responsibility to initiate contact, Mitch won’t do anything. And if Grandma is narcissistic and self-centered, she may have no interest in Mitch, because it requires too much of her. This kid may not be easy, but he has been rejected by members of his family for most of his life. Please be kind.

Dear Annie: Our daughter is getting married in the fall, and we are having the wedding and reception in our backyard. How can we ask guests not to use their cellphones or text during the festivities? This rudeness has become acceptable, but not to my wife or me. -- Jim Dear Jim: It’s perfectly OK to ask your guests to turn off or mute their cellphones during the ceremony. The minister or best man can make the announcement before the wedding begins. But you will have less luck at the reception. People want to take photos of themselves and their friends and text a play-by-play to those who couldn’t attend. You can ask the guests to put their phones away so they can enjoy the real-time fun, but you cannot force them. If there is a band, even a muted noise level should be enough to lessen the distraction.

Dear Annie: This is in response to “Polly Positive,” whose husband is dealing with cancer, and family and friends keep telling him horror stories about death.

My nephew was recently diagnosed with cancer. He invited me for Thanksgiving, and I was dreading it. One of the first things I did was go online and look up “what NOT to say to cancer patients.” I was amazed to see what comes out of the mouths of otherwise intelligent people. I encourage all of your readers to do this. It may save them from stepping on their tongues -- Prayerful in K.

In Memoriam

In Loving Memory Kenneth H. Smith Oct. 25, 1946 - Mar. 3, 2011 No One Knows They say there is a reason.

They say that time will heal.

But neither time nor reason, Will change the way we feel.

For no one knows how many times, We have broken down and cried.

We want to tell you something, So there wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be any doubt.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re so wonderful to think of, But so hard to be without.

Love you always Pearl; Brent, Dean, Shelley and their families
