Tyson is tops Cranbrook martial artist takes gold at Nationals; preparing for coming world championship in Ireland T r e vo r C r aw l e y

Two orphaned bear cubs — a brother and sister — were rescued by Stephanie McGregor and Colleen Bailey on the weekend.

Outing quickly turns into bear cub rescue Arne Petryshen Townsman Staff

When a group of local hikers came across two bear cubs up the Bull River Road, their first instinct was to stay away, as anyone who lives in the Kootenays knows that a mother bear’s in-

stinct to protect her cubs can be extremely dangerous. However the mother didn’t appear.

Stephanie McGregor, her husband and some friends were on the road to Lemon Lake on Sunday, but when they turned back because of road conditions, they

came across the two bear cubs.

“There were two teeny-tiny baby bears,” McGregor said.

“The smallest bears I’ve ever seen in my life, so we pulled over and we just sat in our vehicles.

See BEAR CUBS, Page 3

Being the best in Canada isn’t easy, but Tyson Hirscher proved just that when given the chance.

Hirscher, a local 17-year-old mixed martial arts athlete, recently went undefeated at nationals in Ottawa last week, booking a spot at the world championships next October in Ireland.

With only one two-minute round to beat his opponents, Hirscher won all four of his fights in continuous sparring on Friday, giv-

Tyson Hirscher ing him the necessary points to claim the national title in his age and weight category.

Hirscher trains out of the Rocky Mountain

Academy of Martial Arts and Evolution Martial Arts in Cranbrook.

A matter of time Cranbrook residents are asked to submit an item for a time capsule that will be opened in 2039 Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff

What do you want Cranbrook residents of 2039 to know about your life here today?

That’s the question that the organizers of a local time capsule project are asking you to consider.

To commemorate the 50-year an-

niversary of Sam Steele Days, the organizing committee is putting together a one-metre square time capsule that will be preserved next month at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters and not opened until the 75th anniversary in 2039.

Musicians Michael Hampton, Tadasuke Iijima, Rivka Golani and Vanessa Lucas Smith rehearsed a number by Brahms in the Key City Theatre lobby on Wednesday, May 21. The SoWeCa Chamber Music Festival opens Friday, May 23 in Cranbrook, then will tour Fernie, Fort MacLeod and Lethbridge. The festival features 17 artists from around the world.

Orphaned bear cubs rescued, sent to shelter Continued from page 1 “I thought for sure the mama bear would be coming up right away. We sat there for a while and she wasn’t coming. I was kind of getting more worried and more worried.”

Then, as they were waiting, a group of dirt bikers arrived at the site and asked if the bears were still there. They said they’d seen the cubs there the day before.

McGregor called the Conservation Officers (CO) office, but got the hotline. Next she called her friend Colleen Bailey.

“She’s an experienced animal rescuer — that’s kind of what she does.”

Bailey immediately contacted the Northern Lights Wildlife Society in Smithers, B.C. The shelter did have room, but wanted them to be sure the bears were orphaned. The shelter has helped more than 200 black bears, as well as a number of grizzly and Kermode bears.

Soon some tourists

from Ohio, who’d come to take photos of hummingbirds, came upon the bears and set up their tripods to take photos.

“There was just no way that momma was around with these people hanging around,” McGregor said. “We called back to the shelter and she gave us word to capture them. She was in touch with the COs and all the proper authorities.”

COs later confirmed that the mother had died.

Bailey, a technical animal rescuer, is trained in how to work with fractious, or unruly, animals.

She said she approached it like any frightened animal that can cause damage.

“I put on heavy gloves and protected my arms with a heavy jacket,” Bailey said. “I walked up and they were weak enough that I could approach them and grab them.”

At the time, Bailey was working on behalf

The first cub tried to go up a tree, but was so weak it ended up falling back. Bailey caught it and put it in a portable kennel. The second cub

got even further up a tree, but Bailey got him by the rear end.

They drove back to Bailey’s house, where they weighed the bears — a brother and sister — and got them some

bear gruel to eat.

A veterinarian came down to take a look at the bears as well, who fed them, gave them a vitamin shot and assessed them. The bears were quite dehydrated,

starving, but they were in good enough shape to be transported to Smithers. But a flight couldn’t be lined up, as the animal inspector wasn’t available over the weekend.

So instead, on Monday, McGregor and Bailey drove the bears to Golden. There they met Wendy Chambers, a volunteer with the Northern Lights Wildlife Society, who drove the bears to Jasper. From there, the owners of Northern Lights took the bears, driving 10 hours each way to pick them up.

The Northern Lights Wildlife Society is the only shelter in B.C. (other than one only for Vancouver Island bears) that can take bears in.

It’s a non-profit that gives injured/orphaned wildlife a second chance at survival.

Angelika and Peter Langen started the shelter in 1989 after emigrating from Germany. It became a society in 2001 and a registered charity in 2002.

McGregor said the bears will be rehabilitated then hopefully released back into the wild in a year or so.

“We couldn’t believe how everyone came together for these bears,” she said. “It’s so amazing.”

The Laurie Middle School Grade 8/9 Concert Band travelled to California May 14-20 to take part in Disney’s performing arts program. The students participated in a workshop at Disneyland and performed several musical arrangements on the stage in Disney’s California Adventure Park in front of many park visitors. They were given an excellent performance rating of 8 out of 10, a score rarely given. Other attractions visited were Medieval Times Dinner & Tournament and Universal Studios. Despite temperatures reaching 42 degrees Celsius the students performed very well and had a wonderful time. Thank you to the community for sponsoring our students in their many fundraisers throughout the year.

Time capsule taking items for 2039 reveal Continued from page 1 Sandy Zeznik, coordinator of the time capsule project, said the idea is to show the “connectivity of the community.” “(The idea is to show) the history of the people, the threads that tie

us together as a community up until 2014,” said Zeznik.

In considering what they submit for the time capsule, Zeznik said she hopes Cranbrook residents will think about their “hopes and dreams

for 25 years into the future (and the city’s) history from the people to the people in 25 years.”

Items that relate to Cranbrook culture, school life, family life, volunteerism, recreation, and business can be submitted, as well as

Sam Steele Days memorabilia.

It can be a personal perspective in terms of a letter, art or pictures, or an artistic contribution such as a song, a poem or a painting.

“Anyone can add something,” said Zeznik.

“Everyone has a story.

“For those who will be around in 25 years for the opening of the capsule, what do you want to see?”

She suggested we make predictions about what Cranbrook will be like in 2039.

“What will the environment be like? Will the deer still be bothering us?”

There is no cost to contribute, but items should be relatively small and placed in a zip-locked plastic bag with the air removed.

The time capsule can’t take perishables, batteries, rubber, or

plant, animal or insect specimens.

Once submissions have been gathered and organized, the time capsule will be dedicated at a special ceremony on Thursday, June 19 at 2 p.m. at the Chamber of Commerce.

Several local businesses have helped the time capsule project come about. Fabrite Services is making the time capsule, WolfPack Signs is making a sign for the time capsule to identify its significance, Roderick’s Skid-Steer Service is preparing the location and rock slab to mount the time capsule,

Signal Collision is providing a custom paint job, Lordco Parts is supplying paint, and Interior Sports and Trophies is creating a plaque inscribed with the dedication to the future community.

The deadline to submit an item for the time capsule is this Friday, May 23. You can drop it off to the Cranbrook and District Chamber of Commerce at 2279 Cranbrook Street North.

Digital files can be emailed to info@samsteeledays.org. For more information, contact the Chamber at 250-4264161.

B.C. court overturns acquittals for former MP’s campaign official C anadian Press

CRANBROOK, B.C. — A B.C. judge has overturned two acquittals for a Conservative MP’s campaign official who was charged with several Elections Act violations.

Harvey Venier, who acted as the official agent for former Kootenay-Columbia MP Jim Abbott, was charged with several offences related to paperwork he filed after the 2006 and 2008 federal elections.

He stood trial last October and was acquitted of four counts related to various reporting requirements, while he pleaded guilty to failing to open a separate bank account for the

election and received an absolute discharge.

The federal Crown appealed the acquittals on two of the counts, arguing the judge was wrong when he concluded there was no evidence to support those charges.

A B.C. Supreme Court judge has set aside those acquittals, though the ruling questions whether it would make sense to proceed with a new trial against Venier, who was not accused of any financial impropriety.

Abbott has since retired from politics and did not run in the 2011 election, when he was replaced by Conservative David Wilks.

Two charged in trap tampering not present for first appearance S a l ly M ac D o n a l d Townsman Staff

Two men charged for tampering with deer traps in Kimberley earlier this year had brief court appearances in Cranbrook on Tuesday, May 20.

Neither Devin Kazakoff nor Lucky Sikora were personally in court on Tuesday for their first appearance on charges of mischief and disguising the face to commit an offence.

Legal counsel represented each man, and the cases were put over until June 16.

Kazakoff, a founder of the Invermere Deer Protection Society, and Sikora were arrested in February after RCMP allege they were involved in an incident in Kimberley where deer traps were damaged.

Police said that two men were

arrested early on Feb. 27 in Kimberley after they were observed damaging a clover trap 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 vehicle found items police believe were used to tamper with the traps.

Four traps in total were damaged.

The City of Kimberley called off its cull after the traps, owned by the B.C. government, were taken out of commission. The incident came a few weeks after 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.

Two accused in home invasions back in court Sally MacDonald

Two of the four people charged over a series of Cranbrook home invasions appeared in court via video on Tuesday, May 20.

Andrew Monnette and Jay Hills are the two remaining men facing lengthy charges in connection with two home invasions in Cranbrook on December 18 and 26 last year.

Their co-accused, husband and wife Terrence Allan and Megan Sands, pleaded guilty and were sentenced in April to eight and five years jail respectively for their role in the incidents.

On Tuesday, Hills’ lawyer William Thorne said that his client also wants to plead guilty, and the disposition was set for May 28 in Cranbrook Provincial Court.

Meanwhile, Monnette briefly appeared and asked for his case to be

put over until June 30, when his legal counsel could be available. His next court appearance will be to fix a date for trial.

Monnette and Hills face charges including break and enter, disguising the face with the intent to commit an offence, uttering threats, and use of a firearm in committing an offence.

According to RCMP, a home on 1st Avenue South in Cranbrook was the location of a home invasion on Dec. 18. There was a break and enter at the same home on Dec. 24.

On Boxing Day, there was a second home invasion at a property on 6th Street North in Cranbrook.

RCMP said four people allegedly entered the residence carrying a long gun, a shot gun, an Uzi-style firearm, brass knuckles and a baton. In both cases, electronic devices were allegedly stolen.

The city has three pumps working to move water out of Elizabeth Lake and across Wattsville Road.

Elizabeth Lake drainage assessment in the works Arne Pe tryshen Townsman Staff

Elizabeth Lake continues to sit at its swollen level, covering fields, trails and animal habitats – and with the looming spring freshet, that problem could get worse before getting better.

Stakeholders, including the City of Cranbrook, have found that an engineering assessment of the Elizabeth Lake drainage basin is needed.

Mayor Wayne Stetski said the study will look at Jimsmith Creek and other streams in the watershed to assess how the water moves through Elizabeth Lake and into Cranbrook’s stormwater system.

“We are working with all of the impacted agencies to realize a better future,” said Stetski, “which will include the comprehensive engineering study, creating more spring storage capacity in the lake, stream channel clearing, and replacing some older culverts with new ones that have water control structures built into them.”

A stakeholders meeting was held on May 14, primarily to discuss the flooding and look at strategies for dealing with it in the short and long term. It included representatives from the City of Cranbrook, the Regional District of East Kootenay, Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations Stewardship Branch, Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure (MOTI), and Ducks Unlimited.

In the meantime, the city continues to pump water over Wattsville Road as a method to control flow downstream and keep the land further into the city from flooding.

“We have three pumps down there at Wattsville Road,” CAO Wayne Staudt told council on May 12.

“We pump out of the lake side of Wattsville Road and then put it into the channel, that then travels all the way down and ends up in Joseph Creek. So anything coming off Elizabeth Lake proceeds down and drops into Joseph Creek.”

Staudt said the city has only been pumping during the day to keep the noise down for guests at Elizabeth Lake Lodge.

Staudt also noted that he’d met with MOTI the week before to assess the condition of its culvert which runs underneath the highway.

“There was a question of whether or not the city should open up the two culverts at Wattsville Road and deal with it that way as opposed to the pumping,” Staudt said.

However, MOTI told the city that the culvert under the highway was working at maximum capacity and could not handle another drop of water. “So if we were to move more water at Wattsville, we would probably flood out the Wattsville area, unless we attach pumps across the highway, and pumping across the highway is much more of a burden to the community.”

Staudt said the pumps are working well, but the bigger issue is what’s going to happen as the melt comes.

“We’re at about 135 per cent snowpack and it’s already the middle of May, so that’s a very high

snowpack for the middle of May,” he said. “So we’re very concerned about flooding in and around Joseph Creek very shortly.”

Staudt also said that he’d spoken with a resident who’d lived in the Elizabeth Lake area for 38 years and this is the highest he’d ever seen it.

“Right from the beginning we were very clear that we’re not willing to flood out Cranbrook residents to lower Elizabeth Lake any more than the system holds,” Stetski said at council meeting.

Work will be required on downstream culverts; however, that work cannot take place until water levels have receded.

The RDEK has organized a neighbourhood meeting at 7 p.m. on May 26 at the RDEK office.

“These meetings give us the opportunity to share information directly with the impacted residents and to hear their concerns and questions,” Rob Gay, RDEK board chair, said.

For heaven’s sake, if you filled that space floor to ceiling with hard drives, the information on the hard drives would still only contain a fraction of the web.

But back then, the world was so simple, and my high school library had never let me down before. With the help of the friendly school librarians (and my mum was one, though at another school, so I am a little biased), I was able to answer any question.

All it took was persistence and the willingness to become absorbed by paper and ink.

It’s an experience that I imagine is common for most students, all over the world.

Any student who is lucky enough to have access to a

school library has at their fingertips a wealth of education, insight and entertainment.

In one night, $2 million worth of education was destroyed at my high school library. The school was preparing for its 40th anniversary celebration later this year, so the fire also took decades of memorabilia being stored there for the occasion.

But, for the thousands of students who learnt in that library, its impact can never be taken away. Like all school libraries, it has made an indelible mark on our lives and helped create who we are today.

On May 5 I had a vehicle accident on Highway 95A. I would like to sincerely thank two angels that took the time out of their day to help me. I do not know their names but one angel was a very kind gentleman who was the first on the scene and helped me get out of my vehicle, went back in it to find my wallet and got his first aid kit to help with my bleeding broken nose. The second angel was a wonderful caring lady who called the ambulance, stayed by my side and spoke to me in a calm voice to comfort me while we waited for the ambulance.

I would also like to thank the paramedic who was off duty that stopped and stayed until the ambulance arrived, the other concerned people that stopped to

see if I needed any help, Bruce Smith from Alpine Toyota who contacted me the day of the accident to see how I was and has since given me a new vehicle free of charge to use until I get a new one, and Gardner Fraser of Melody Motors who was sincerely concerned and offered to help me in any way that he could.

I am truly grateful for these amazing people. The kindness that they have in their souls truly shines for everyone to see.

Council priorities

When I voted in the last civic election, I did so on the basis that the elected individuals would take care of city business

first and foremost. By city business I mean matters such as water, sewer, roads, culture and recreation.

It appears that some councillors feel that their role should be expanded to include provincial and federal issues. They seem to be using their position on council to spend their time advocating for concerns that are beyond their jurisdiction.

There is no doubt that child care and home mail delivery are important issues, but that is not what I feel is the role of city council.

Perhaps the councillors with strong feelings on issues such as these should run for provincial or federal office. Then we could have councillors who put items such as infrastructure first.

The new ‘Longitude Prize’

V

oting begins this week to choose the problem that the winner of the Longitude Prize 2014 will have to solve — and win £10 million ($17 million). It’s a publicity gimmick, of course, but it may be very useful nevertheless. Especially because, unlike most of these prizes for innovation, it is meant to solve a problem that is of concern to all of humanity.

The DARPA Challenges are all about autonomous vehicles and robots, mostly with military applications. The Ansari X Prize was for a low-cost reusable spacecraft capable of sub-orbital flight, and the follow-on Google Lunar X Prize is more of the same. Toys for the boys.

The $10 million Tricorder X Prize, announced in 2012, is a bit closer to the mark, as it would reward the development of an instant diagnostic device like the one used by Leonard “Bones” McCoy, the Chief Medical Officer in the original Star Trek series. But the Longitude 2014 Prize is the real deal.

It marks the 300th anniversary of the first Longitude Prize, when the British parliament offered £20,000 (a sum comparable to £10 million now) to anyone who could devise a method for finding a ship’s position at sea. Latitude — its distance North or South of the equator — could easily be found by measuring the height of the Sun or the Pole Star above the horizon, but there was no good way of determining its East-West position: its longitude.

Instead, mariners relied on “dead reckoning”. They kept track of what courses they steered, how fast they were going, and for how long, and added it all together to come up with a rough estimate of how far they had traveled East or West. But they could not accurately calculate the effect of ocean currents and winds on their position, and the ships often tacked to and fro.

After an ocean crossing, navigators were often wrong about their ship’s position by hundred of kilometres (miles): landfall might occur with no warning, and quite possibly at night. Worldwide, hundreds of ships were being lost each year, and so in 1714 the Longitude Prize was created.

The solution was obvious in principle.

You just set your clock at noon at your port of departure, note the time it reads when the sun is highest wherever you are, and the difference between noon on the clock and Gwynne noon at your present position will tell you your longiDyer tude. But your clock must stay accurate during long sea voyages. They had good pendulum clocks in the 18th century, but pendulums didn’t work very well on a rolling, pitching ship.

It took a long time to build a chronometer that stayed accurate enough (gaining or losing only a few seconds per month) to let mariners calculate their longitude to within one or two nautical miles, but by 1765 John Harrison, a clockmaker from Lincolnshire, had done the job. He died a rich man, and he deserved his reward: thousands of ships were saved from shipwreck and hundreds of thousands of lives were spared in the century that followed.

The new Longitude Prize is all about saving human life (or improving it) on a very large scale. There are six “challenges” on the Longitude Committee’s list, and only one of them will be chosen for the prize. They are: • Flight — How can we fly without damaging the environment?

• Food — How can we ensure everyone has nutritious sustainable food?

• Antibiotics — How can we prevent the rise of resistance to antibiotics?

• Paralysis — How can we restore movement to those with paralysis?

• Water — How can we ensure every-

one has access to safe and clean water?

• Dementia — How can we help people with dementia live independently for longer?

When you read the actual “job descriptions” of these challenges, it’s clear that some thought went into it. Consider the Antibiotics challenge, for example: “Clinicians often prescribe broad spectrum antibiotics to sick patients because doctors have to act quickly on imperfect information. These methods put selective pressure on microbes to evolve resistance to antibiotics....

“The challenge ... will be to create a cheap, accurate, rapid, and easy-to-use test for bacterial infections that will allow doctors and nurses all over the world to better target their treatments, administering the right antibiotics at the right time.

Point-of-care test kits will allow more targeted use of antibiotics, and an overall reduction in mis-diagnosis and prescription. This will ensure that the antibiotics we have now will be effective for longer.”

So you could win this challenge with a working Tricorder — two Prizes for the price of one? — and the breakthrough idea need not even come from the medical field. As BBC Director-General Tony Hall said when the prize was announced: “There might be another modern-day John Harrison somewhere out there ... and they may not even know that they’re a scientist.”

It’s a kind of crowd-sourcing, and none the worse for that. The voting to decide which challenge gets the nod opened on 22 May on the BBC Horizon website, and closes on 25 June. Unfortunately, voting is restricted to British residents, but the Prize is open to everybody in the world.

And maybe there are five other governments out there that would like to put up $10 or $20 million for a solution to one of the other five challenges.

Storm eliminate host Knights from Memorial Cup DONNA SPENCER Canadian Press

LONDON, Ont. - The London Knights’ elimination from their third straight Memorial Cup stung because it was their earliest exit of the three.

The host team of the 2014 MasterCard Memorial Cup was a true contender among the four teams in it.

With seven Knights forwards who helped the Knights win the last two Ontario Hockey League championships and with a team that scored over 300 goals this season, London was a threat to win the Cup on their third try in as many years.

But the hosts were eliminated by the Guelph Storm in a 7-2 loss Wednesday. The Knights went 0-3 through the preliminary round and needed a win against their OHL rival to get into a tiebreaker game.

“We thought for sure we’d have a better

chance of winning it this year,” Knights forward Josh Anderson said.

“We didn’t have the bounces we wanted. It’s too bad it had to end this way.

“We wanted to have the Memorial Cup championship.

I thought our organization really deserved one after the hard work we’ve been putting through these past three years. Looking at it now, I’m glad I got the opportunity to come here and play for the London Knights.”

The Knights lost the 2012 final 2-1 in overtime to the host Shawinigan Cataractes. They fell in last year’s semifinal to the Portland Winterhawks in Saskatoon.

The Storm were the first team since the Windsor Spitfires in 2010 to go 3-0 through the preliminary round.

The OHL champions had already secured a berth in Sunday’s championship game after their second win.

Local MMA fighter wins nationals Tyson Hirscher goes undefeated in four separate rounds against the top talent in the country TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

I thought, ‘Well, I came all the way from smalltown Cranbrook and I’m in Ottawa so I gotta represent.’”

The tournament is split up into two parts, with two fights in each portion. Each fight is only one round of two minutes, meaning there’s no time to sit back.

“The main thing I was doing was controlling the mat and trying to push the pace,” said Hirscher. “They’re such short rounds that if you start losing right off the bat, you got to get in there right away, otherwise you’re going to lose.”

For his first fight, Hirscher went up against Spencer Cunningham, who is last year’s champion—no small task.

However, Hirscher prevailed.

“There were a lot of

With only two minutes to show what he’s got, Tyson Hirscher proved that he is the best in Canada.

The local mixed martial arts athlete went undefeated in four one-minute round fights at nationals in Ottawa to claim the championship title and book a spot at worlds in Ireland next October.

Not bad for a 17-yearold kid from a small town in the Rocky Mountains.

There’s also an element of redemption for Hirscher, who missed out on gold last year but still medaled with a bronze.

He wouldn’t be denied this time around.

Each of his four bouts occurred last Friday night during the threeday event.

“They’re such short rounds that if you start losing right off the bat, you got to get in there right away, otherwise you’re going to lose.”

Tyson Hirscher Less than 10 minutes later, Hirscher was back into it for his second fight against a familiar opponent out of Calgary who he’s faced before, and won that one.

Those two wins put him in first place heading into the second half of the tournament, an improvement from last

year where he had a record of a win and a loss.

“I lost my first fight, then I won three in a row, but I only had enough [points] to get bronze,” Hirscher said, reminiscing on his experience last year.

“So the first fight is really important.”

Hirscher then went into his third bout against a fighter out of his weight class and won that one, which set up a rematch against Cunningham—his first opponent.

“Halfway through the fight I hit him with a liver kick, and he went down and bent over the table,” said Hirscher.

“There was a standing eight-count, the ref was counting down and then he was good to go after that.”

Cunningham was more fired up in the rematch, but Hirscher’s liver kick pretty much sealed the win.

“After the first fight, he was pretty demoralized, so there were a couple people talking to

him, telling him what went wrong,” said Hirscher.

“The second time we fought, he looked more into it, he looked more determined to win. I just kept coming at him, and then that’s when the liver kick happened and that was basically the end of the fight.”

Hirscher got into martial arts through Taekwondo a few years ago through Evolution Martial Arts with Simon Wachon. He wanted to learn more stand up techniques and eventually signed up for Muay Thai with the Rocky Mountain Academy of Martial Arts under the tutelage of Joel Huncar.

Hirscher will continue to train over the summer for the world championship in Dublin next fall. There’s a high cost to the trip, and if any businesses or individuals are interested in sponsoring his journey, they can contact Huncar at the Rocky Mountain Academy of Marital Arts at 250-489-3478.

The early deficit was just a small speed bump for Los Angeles, dubbed the comeback Kings for their play in the opening two rounds.

Los Angeles trailed 3-0 in its first playoff series against San Jose, and won four straight games to eliminate the Sharks. The Kings overcame a 3-2 series deficit in the second round against top-seeded Anaheim.

“We know we can win,” forward Jarret Stoll said. “That’s the bottom line. They’ve got a good team, but we feel we do too.”

Game 3 of the bestof-seven series is Saturday night in Los Angeles.

Nick Leddy and Ben Smith scored for Chicago, which won 3-1 in Game 1 on Sunday.

Whitecaps developing soccer culture in the Kootenays Will Johnson Nelson Star

Brett Adams has the comedic timing of Jonah Hill, a Nottingham accent that sounds vaguely like Hugh Grant’s to the untrained Canadian ear, and a passion for coaching soccer in the Kootenays.

The 31-year-old former semi-professional soccer player, who was hired as the regional head coach of the Whitecaps’ Kootenay Academy Centre this past October after working for clubs in England for many years, has big plans for what he hopes to accomplish with soccer in the Kootenays.

And he seems thrilled by the coming prospects.

“You can’t wake up and not want to work in a community like this,” Adams told the Nelson Star on Monday, after leading a coaching clinic in Lakeside Park. “It’s not just the scenery, it’s the people.

They’re friendly, welcoming, and most importantly, they’re responsive to the vision.”

What vision is that?

“We want to grow the game here in the Kootenays,” said Adams.

Adams, along with his second-in-command Sam Heap, 28, is working to introduce the rigorous Whitecaps program to communities that may not have experi-

enced the same level of competitive soccer in the past. Though he is already responsible for approximately 900 youth players in the region, that’s not enough for him.

He wants to continue to spread the culture and permeate communities that haven’t traditionally embraced soccer in the past.

He said as each community improves, it will raise the level of the game being played and give talented players the opportunity to rise to the BCSPL league and ultimately, he hopes, to the Vancouver Whitecaps.

“We’ve yet to make a MLS superstar. But that’s the long term aim,” said Heap. “The more areas in the Kootenays we develop, the stronger the overall Kootenays become.”

Adams’ emphasized that though their ambitions are to prepare their players for opportunities to move up, they are also focused on improving the day-today lives of the players in their care.

“There’s nothing that makes me prouder than seeing a kid walking downtown with a Whitecaps tracksuit and you can see there’s a bounce in her step. You can look at that logo and know you’re a part of that club. That club, that’s you.”

Adams’ zeal for the sport is

pseudo-religious and he discusses the game with the fervour of an obsessed acolyte.

“We expect our players to honour the code,” he said. “We want to develop honest, trustworthy people with correct principles.” The principles he’s talking about come from the Whitecaps’ motto: “Our All, Our Honour”. When asked what these words mean to him personally, Adams didn’t have to hesitate for a moment.

“You look around, every city in the Kootenays has got these fabulous facilities. So they have the potential to really expand. We want to see them achieve that potential. ” Sam Heap “It means treat people the way you want to be treated. It means live your values,” he said. “The beautiful thing about soccer is there’s an attack and a defence, and both sides have a strategy and both sides have a plan. You know what you’re supposed to be doing.”

When asked about the war metaphors he often uses while talking

Jim Benning officially unveiled as new Canucks GM C anadian Press

VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Canucks have named Jim Benning as their new general manager.

Benning is the first significant hire made by new Canucks president of hockey operations Trevor Linden, who was handed the franchise’s reins after the team missed the playoffs for the first time in six years following a disastrous 2013-14 campaign.

Benning spent the last eight seasons with the Boston Bruins, including seven as the club’s assistant general manager.

A former Canucks defenceman during his playing days, the 51-year-old Benning is the 11th general manager in franchise history - a post he has never

held with an NHL club.

“Jim brings a wealth of hockey experience as a builder and talent evaluator that will benefit this team for years to come,” said Linden in a statement. “We are aligned on how we want to build this team and Jim’s level of commitment to building a championship team is exciting. I look forward to re-introducing him to Vancouver on Friday.”

The Edmonton native replaces Mike Gillis, who was fired as Vancouver’s president and general manager a day after the club was eliminated from playoff contention with three games left in the regular season.

Benning’s first order of business with the Canucks will be to hire a new head coach after Linden axed John Tortorella earlier this month following one tumultuous campaign.

Benning will also have to prepare for next month’s NHL draft and assess a roster that Tortorella accused of being

“stale” at his end-ofseason press conference.

Apart from helping to shape a Bruins team that defeated the Canucks in the 2011 Stanley Cup final, Benning’s managerial resume also includes 12 seasons with Buffalo Sabres, with eight of those

spent as that club’s director of amateur scouting.

Selected sixth overall by the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 1981 NHL draft, Benning played nine seasons with Toronto and Vancouver, collecting 52 goals and 191 assists in 610 career games.

to the kids, Adams said he often thinks about the soccer pitch as a “battlefield”, which it was it is often called in Britain.

His chess-like approach to the game has a big picture strategy that utilizes as many players as possible, rather than relying on one or two particularly advanced members of the team to run isolated at the waiting goalie. He encourages his charges to be creative and one of his goals is to try to get away from long ball tactics and encourage a more well-rounded approach to scoring goals.

“I want extra bodies in the box,” he said. “The crux of attacking is attacking in numbers.”

As his young female players zigzagged and raced across the grass on Monday night, Adams shouted commands and encouragements, jumping in to demonstrate the more complicated footwork and every now and then taking a break to crack jokes. He offered five points to the first player to successfully nail a moving car with a soccer ball.

Adams said the Whitecaps want to expand their program to places that have been less touched by soccer culture, including Cranbrook, Creston and Fernie. To that end, the Whitecaps Kootenay Academy Centre is offering four

summer camps in Castlegar, Grand Forks, Cranbook and Nelson in July and August. All the camps are three days long and open to anyone interested in joining. The Nelson camp is geared to more elite players.

Heap is mainly based out of Cranbrook, and he believes the community there has the capability of becoming a prospect area on the same level as Nelson.

“There’s many regions we want to get into,” said Heap. He said parts of the Kootenays are like an “untapped market”.

Heap believes soccer’s inexpensive cost attracts children and families from a variety of social backgrounds, and doesn’t create the same financial strain as hockey. And in many cases, the necessary facilities are waiting there to get used.

“You look around, every city in the Kootenays has got these fabulous facilities. So they have the potential to really expand,” he said. “We want to see them achieve that potential.”

But the real resource is the players. “These kids? They’re here, spot on, very clued up, geared up to play and they’ve got a real passion for soccer in this area,” he said. “Now we just have to get them out there playing.”

Labour talks hit snag between CFL, CFLPA C anadian Press

TORONTO - The CFL reached out directly to its players and fans Wednesday after the latest round of labour talks with the CFL Players’ Association hit a snag.

The league announced it had rejected a proposal from the CFLPA and also made its first public declaration on the negotiations, unveiling details of the offer it made to the Players’ Association on May 15.

Commissioner Mark Cohon outlined the specifics by releasing a pair of letters - one to players and a separate one to fans - saying the league offered to boost both the salary cap and minimum salaries over five seasons.

“Unfortunately the union’s bargaining team has rejected this offer and instead put forward an unrealistic proposal which, if adopted, would threaten the very existence of the CFL,” Cohon said. “This is why we are

now communicating directly to the players.”

The CFLPA did not immediately comment on the latest developments but a news conference was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon.

CFLPA president Scott Flory, second vice-president Marwan Hage and legal counsel Ed Molstad were expected to attend.

The current collective bargaining agreement is scheduled to expire May 30, threatening the start of training camps June 1.

Pre-season games are scheduled to begin June 9 and the regular season is set to begin June 26.

The CFLPA has issued strike ballots to its members and there are no plans in place for future talks. Cohon said the league has told the CFLPA it is prepared to “meet in bargaining at any time once they are prepared to discuss a fair and reasonable settlement that makes sense for both the players and the league.”

On Saturday, May 17, Air Cadets from 279 Elk Valley and 266 Kimberley Squadrons were at the Rocky Mountain International Airport for a day of gliding. Due to the weather on Saturday, flying in the gliders didn’t happen until the late afternoon. During the morning hours, cadets were given tours of the airport and control tower, as well as familiarization flying flights in the tow air craft. On Sunday, May 18, Air Cadets from 552 Key City Cranbrook and 904 Kootenai Creston squadrons were out on the field for their gliding flights.

Pictured above, cadets are moving the glider onto the runway, preparing to hook up the tow line and have the glider take flight. Many cadets received their very first glider flight, and for some it was also the first time they had been in any style of aircraft. Glider flights were an average of 12 minutes and everyone enjoyed their time in the skies above Cranbrook. The Royal Canadian Air Cadet program is for interested youth aged 12 - 18 and runs September to June. For more information on any of these squadrons, contact Lt. Lori-Lee Bott, 250-426-3685, or email trainingdesk552@gmail.com.

FACTS You Need to Know About…

MINES ACT FEES With

MLA,

Bill Bennett

1

Currently, no fees are charged for permits granted under the Mines Act, despite fees charged to the forest, oil & gas, transportation & tourism industries. Mining is growing in BC with record amounts being invested in exploration, new mines & expansions to existing mines.

2

Since 2011, we’ve lowered the turnaround time for a Notice of Work from 110 days to 55 days.

This required extra resources and the Ministry of Finance asked the Mines Ministry to start contributing to the cost through fees.

3

One round of consultation with the industry based on a set of proposed fees is now complete and the ministry is starting a second round.

An early decision: fees will not be charged to the grass roots level of mineral or placer exploration. Other final decisions about the rest of the exploration and operating mines will be made after this next round of consultations with the industry.

features It happened this week in Cranbrook Week of May 18 - 24

Dave Humphrey Items compiled from the archived newspapers held at the Cranbrook Museum and Archives

1898 C.N.P.R. Trains in July … Chief Engineer Macleod was in Cranbrook recently, in the course of his regular monthly inspection of the work along the line of the C. N. P. R. Mr. Macleod, as has been at a previous time stated, is a conservative man, and probably knows as much about the future progress of construction on the line as many who have not facts and figures at their command.

Mr. Macleod says trains are running quite regularly to Bullhead Prairie, a fact which in itself insures much more rapid work, as it abolishes the long and serious delays occasioned during the winter by inability to keep supplies on hand, owing to bad roads and

weather. Mr. Macleod is confident the road will reach Cranbrook by the end of July, and that it will reach Kootenay Lake September I. 1899 A Paper Chase … Tonight at six o’clock, about twenty people will meet at the Baker residence to participate in a paper chase. Two hares will probably be selected, and the general course will be north.

Grand Raffle ...

House and lot in Cranbrook; good location for family. Spring creek within 50 yards of door.

Don’t miss the chance of a lifetime to get a home for one dollar. You are liable to win. Drawing takes place July 8, 1899.

Notice will be published where raffle takes place.

Bad Mail Arrangement ... Commencing last Monday, the mail for Fort Steele goes hereaf-

ter by the junction, which will prove a great inconvenience to the people of Fort Steele, as well as all those living west of that town who have business with the government offices.

Take for instance those living in Moyie. A letter mailed in Moyie on Monday reaches Cranbrook at 11 or 12 o’clock that night. It will lay over here until Thursday morning and goes to the junction, and then by stage to Fort Steele. If it is answered promptly, the answer goes to the junction Friday evening and arrives in Cranbrook that night, only to lay over here until Tuesday morning before it reaches Moyie. And this is the same with all mail West from Fort Steele. It is a bad arrangement.

1900 From Herald Editor Simpson ... The Cranbrook gang sailed from Seattle yesterday for

Nome City. The following card received at this office today from Seattle explains itself: Seattle, Wash , May 22, 1900.

Dear Boys, We’re off! We sail tomorrow morning at 10. We will be a long time away from dirt.

Good luck to you. Pray for the Arctic Circle crowd; they’ll need it.

Regards to all. Address all mail to Seattle, care Brunswick Hotel, and tell others. Yours Simpson.

Horse Thieves … It is believed an organized gang is working between Kootenay Lake and Fernie. Several horses have disappeared from this vicinity lately, and enough has been learned of late to lead to the belief that an organized gang is at work between Fernie and Kootenay lake, and it may be a more extended field.

Contractor Greer’s horses were ridden away from town several days since and this week he

learned that one of them had been killed on the railroad near Moyelle.

He went farther down the road and heard of the other horse, in the meantime finding Customs Collector Keay’s horse, which had been taken away several days ago, tied to a tree near the railroad track. There are other recent occurrences in the immediate vicinity which lead to the belief that an extensive and completely organized gang of horse thieves are operating in the southern portion of East Kootenay.

A Sad Occurrence …

Yesterday forenoon, after but a few hours’ illness, Frank Johnson, aged 14 years, son of F. W. Johnson, foreman of the C. P. R. shops in Cranbrook, died of what is said to have been malignant scarlet fever, and was interred during the afternoon of the same day. Frank was a bright, intelligent boy — a good boy in the better meanings of the word — beloved by all who knew him; words can scarcely express the severity of the shock inflicted upon the parents, the violence of which has already been attended by results placing the mother in serious condition. In this connection, the Herald feels called upon to say a few words — more in the future, if necessary. Events of the past few weeks tend to prove that Cranbrook needs a thorough purification in many spots, where there are filthy and disease-breeding deposits; this town is not incorporated but the provincial officers have the authority to act in the premises. Many lives may depend upon prompt action.

More Chief Problems … Jake Fink is wearing a careworn look these days, and his hair is turning grey over troubles in his capacity as chief of the Cranbrook Fire Department. A light wagon to be used as a hose “cart” has been wanted for sometime, and was at first expected that one would be secured in the local market, but disappointment followed. After trying various places, Mr. Fink finally told Mr. Miner to fill the order, from Winnipeg, and in a week or two it is expected to have the fire apparatus in order for service.

St. Mary’s school spirit continues to support health care For the Townsman

East Kootenay Foundation for Health received a basket full of smiles this past week thanks to a beautiful gift of $525 from the St. Mary’s Catholic Independent School.

“Our vision is to be a flourishing Catholic school, fully integrated with the community of Cranbrook, to serve all children with excellence in Catholic education and a strong social conscience,” Jerelynn MacNeil, School Principal explains. “Part of that integration plan is to look for alternative ways to give back to the community. We are pleased to show our school spirit

A

with a gift to health care for the East Kootenay Regional Hospital.”

The St. Mary’s School conducts fundraisers throughout the year and most recently held a very successful Great Gatsby evening. The $525 gift has been generously donated to East Kootenay Foundation for Health for its unrestricted general fund which allows the EKFH Board of Directors to determine the area of care the gift will support.

Donna Grainger, EKFH Executive Director said: “What a beautiful lesson in how powerful the gift of giving can be. Our foundation is

Slocan Lake search suspended Nelson Star

After 10 days, the search for three youths presumed drowned in Slocan Lake following a canoe accident has been called off.

The effort involved an RCMP dive team and helicopter, Arrow Lakes and Vernon search and rescue, the Slocan Lake Fire Department, Bruce’s Legacy and others.

“It is unfortunate that the youths could not be located, however the

terrain and depth played a large part in [the search] not being successful,” RCMP Sgt. Darryl Little said. “The RCMP would like to thank everyone who assisted in the search effort.”

The youths’ families have been notified of the decision.

Jule Wiltshire-Padfield, 15, Hayden Kyle, 21, and Skye Donnet, 18, have been missing since their canoe capsized in Bigelow Bay a week ago Saturday as they were en route from New Denver to Rosebery. Lily Harmer-Taylor, 19, was pulled from the canoe but died in hospital.

Privatisation of Radium pools delayed Greg Amos Invermere Valley Echo

Daniel Sookero, 53, is missing. An RCMP helicopter is searching in the Six Mile Lakes and Kokanee Glacier area.

Nelson RCMP seek missing man Staff Writer Nelson Star

An RCMP helicopter is searching the Six Mile road and Kokanee Glacier park looking for Daniel Sookero, 53, who hasn’t been seen since yesterday.

He’s described as 5’8”, 172 lbs., with brown hair and green eyes. He is believed to be driving his gray 2006 Toyota Tundra pick-up truck with roof racks and BC license plate DX3307.

Sookero, a Granite Road resident, failed to show up for work Tuesday and was last seen driving north across the Nelson bridge.

“This behaviour is

out of character for Mr. Sookero,” Sgt. Darryl Little said. “Friends and family are concerned for his well being.”

Little said although there is no specific information that he headed up to Six Mile Lakes, his family suggested he likes to go to that area.

At this point search and rescue is not being called in. “We need to narrow down the search area,” Little said. “The helicopter is a quicker search.”

Anyone with information or who may have seen him is asked to contact RCMP at 250352-2156.

Premier brushes aside Russia-China gas deal C ANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — B.C.’s premier is brushing aside a massive natural gas deal between China and Russia, insisting she’s not worried it will affect her province’s plans to develop a liquefied natural gas industry.

Premier Christy Clark has made the LNG industry her government’s central focus, and that plan relies almost entirely on producers selling their natural gas to markets in Asia.

Russia and China have reached a $400-billion, 30-year agreement

for China to buy Russian natural gas, prompting questions about how the deal could affect Canada’s LNG plans.

But Clark says there will be enough demand for multiple countries to supply natural gas, and she insists B.C. will be competitive.

Clark says customers looking for natural gas want a trustworthy and dependable source, and she suggests Russia doesn’t offer that.

The Liberal government has set a goal of having one LNG plant up and running by 2015 and three in operation by 2020.

The Radium Hot Pools won’t likely be seeing any privatization for another full year, as ongoing consultations with First Nations groups in B.C. and Alberta have delayed the rollout of a request for proposals (RFP) from Parks Canada.

After first announcing the intent to issue a long-term, 42-year lease for all three hot pools (the Radium Hot Pools, Miette Hot Springs in Jasper and the Banff Upper Hot Springs) in the revenue-neutral Hot Springs Enterprise Unit in 2008, Parks Canada has slowed its approach in order to consult with First Nations.

March 2014 was initially the target date for a request for proposals, but there’s no longer any specific time frame being pursued, Parks Canada executive director of mountain parks Pat Thomsen told The Valley Echo.

An employee at the Radium Hot Pools, who did not wish to be named, told The Echo the target date has passed, and “as of March, they’ve given us another year.”

Asked whether the request for proposals will allow for the possibility of each of the three hot springs being run by separate operators, Mrs. Thomsen said, “The RFP, when it’s released, will be based on the best business model that we can advance at that stage. The initial intent was to do them together.”

She acknowledged there is interest from municipalities and First Nations in operating the pools, “but we haven’t entertained any detailed conversations,” she said.

“We’re in active discussion with First Nations bands in the Columbia Valley — the Shuswap and the Ktunaxa,” she added, noting Parks Canada has written to all of the stakeholder First Nations, and are in discussion with those nations that have responded.

In May 2013, then-executive director of mountain parks Tracy Thiessen told the Hinton Parklander that private operators would not be sought with a requests for proposals (RFP) until discussions with the aboriginal groups have settled.

“There’s more than 20 First Nations groups that were on this land traditionally and are interested in learning more about our land transfer deal,” she said at the time. “We will not be releasing the RFP until those consultations have concluded.”

For employees at the Radium hot pools, Mrs. Thomsen said Parks Canada is working with the Canadian Public Service Alliance union and staff “to ensure the provisions of our collective agreement that address an alternate delivery proposal and workforce adjustment provisions would be respected at that time.”

Radium’s hot pools won’t be privatised for at least a year, reports say. may be lost, fears one employee at the hot pools.

They noted the hot pools have seen a freeze on admission prices since the mid-2000s, which they believe has caused the facility to begin falling into disrepair.

“They’ve never allowed us to raise our prices, so how do we fix our buildings and make them look nice?” questioned the employee.

It’s a sentiment echoed by Kevin King , a

spokesperson for the Public Service Alliance of Canada, which has actively opposed the potential request for proposals through a town hall meeting in Radium in February 2013.

The union has also been running an online campaign at the website www.dontsellourhotsprings.ca, which allows concerned members of the public to email their Member of Parliament directly about the issue.

“Why would they (a private operator)

re-capitalize an asset they’re never going to own?,” he said. “Hot springs are symbolic of Canadian identity; the public and small businesses in these communities do not want the hot springs privatized.”

Whether dealing with ski hills, hot springs or other assets, it’s typical for Parks Canada to offer 42-year leases, added Mrs. Thomsen.

“It’s fairly standard in our legislation that allows us to grant a 42year leases,” she said.

Judge dismisses ‘poop and scoop’ case between feuding neighbours in Toronto Will C ampbell Canadian Press

TORONTO — An Ontario judge has scolded feuding neighbours for acting like children in a lawsuit centred on the dirty deeds of a dog in their ritzy pocket of Toronto.

The justice writes that the “high point’’ of the civil claim made by

one set of homeowners against their counterparts across the street was a “poop and scoop’’ that was apparently dropped by the dog owner in the rival neighbours’ garbage can.

Evidence from a security camera of the dog urinating next to the bushes on the plaintiff’s lawn in the posh Forest

Hill neighbourhood was also submitted — and, as Justice Ed Morgan writes, the case went “downhill from there.’’

Court heard the beef stretched over several years and included complaints about the defendants parking their car in front of the plaintiffs’ house, standing and staring at the residence

or walking by it with an audio recorder to catch conversations.

Morgan writes the defendants — a psychiatrist and his wife — seemed to relish picking at the “sensitivities’’ of their neighbours — an oil executive and his wife — even going so far as to pretend to snap pictures of their house.

COLLEGE OF THE ROCKIES

But the judge dismissed those peeves as not being worthy of a legal dispute and writes that what the couples need “is a rather stern kindergarten teacher’’ and not an appearance in his Superior Court hearing room.

“There is no claim for pooping and scooping into the neighbour’s garbage can, and there is no claim for letting Rover water the neigh-

bour’s hedge,’’ Morgan wrote in a ruling released Tuesday.

He scarcely concealed his distaste at the whole affair between two pairs of “educated professionals,’’ plaintiffs Paris and John Morland-Jones and defendants Gary and Audrey Taerk.

“Despite their many advantages in life, however, they are acting like children. And now that

the matter has taken up an entire day in what is already a crowded motions court, they are doing so at the taxpayers’ expense.’’

Noting that the dispute drained both couples of “tens of thousands of dollars’’ in lawyers’ fees, he declined to order either party to pay the other.

“Each side deserves to bear its own costs,’’ Morgan wrote.

African Lion Safari/Handout

A new baby giraffe named Safari at African Lion Safari near Cambridge, Ont., is the first in Canada to have been born using artificial insemination. Safari, a female Rothschild giraffe, was born Dec. 31, 2013.

Wildlife park has first giraffe in Canada born through artificial insemination C ANADIAN PRESS

CAMBRIDGE, Ont. — A wildlife park in southwestern Ontario is celebrating the birth of the first giraffe in Canada through artificial insemination.

African Lion Safari in Cambridge says the calf named ‘’Safari’’ was born on Dec. 31, 2013 but only announced the birth on Tuesday.

The female calf, weighing 132 pounds and standing just under six feet tall, has since been introduced to the herd.

African Lion Safari says this is only the second time in the world that a giraffe has been conceived through artificial insemination.

The calf is a Rothschild giraffe, a subspecies that is classified as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. It says there are less than 1,100 Rothschild giraffes in the wild.

African Lion Safari says overall, there are about 80,000 giraffes in the wild, down from about 140,000 in 1998.

“Using artificial reproductive techniques, we are able to preserve genetic material for future generations as well as to hopefully improve the exchange of genetics in the global giraffe population,’’ said Jason Pootoolal, the giraffe and hoofstock supervisor at African Lion Safari.

You will be happy once you get the results you desire. A family member or a hassle around your home suddenly seems more positive. Tonight: Where all the action is.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Zero in on a friendship that means a lot to you. Your ability to get past an immediate hassle points to better interactions with people. You’ll see the results of sticking with it play out well. You now can look at the whole picture and decide if it is worth it. Tonight: Play it easy.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Pressure builds around a professional situation and a close partner. Your attitude will define how you approach juggling different interests. You can use this opportunity to empower yourself. If you decide not to, you could make matters worse.

Tonight: Out on the town.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Approach a situation in a different way. You might be exhausted by recent developments, and you could want to toss the whole matter aside. You are coming from a position of strength.

Honor the possibility of a fast response being in your favor. Tonight: Read between the lines.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You are willing to do whatever you need to do in order to have a situation work. A partner might need to change his or her attitude. Your sixth sense will point you toward the correct path. Use your imagination when considering your long-term goals.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You will want to tap into your imagination for answers. Your unusual creativity allows others to open up and express themselves in a similar way. If you allow your feelings to flow, you will not make a bad choice. Tonight: Go for something spontaneous.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You have an innate resourcefulness that often comes into play when facing a difficult situation.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Keep communication open. Be more forthright when approaching others, especially as one per-

son seems more positive than usual. Expect the unexpected, and you will not be thrown off as easily. Avoid a friend who frequently is a downer. Tonight: Clear out as much work as possible.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Be more deliberate in how you handle a situation. Do not minimize the importance of working as a team, even if it is difficult to pull in one person who often is aloof. Be smart, and say “no” to a financial risk. Tonight: Think about your weekend plans.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) There seems to be a lot of energy around you. With some self-discipline, you can accomplish a lot right now. You’ll need to have a long-overdue conversation with someone who is difficult. Use your innate ingenuity and energy. Tonight: Home is where your heart is.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: At least once a week, my oldest daughter, “Alice,” asks me to babysit her two kids. I have back problems and cannot get up and down all the time. She has never offered me a dime, even when she was married and had two incomes. I could use the money.

Alice recently went through a divorce. I babysat a lot during that time, but she never showed any appreciation. Alice blames me for everything bad that has ever happened to her, because I divorced her father. So I feel guilty and agree to babysit all the time.

Of course, their father moved away without saying goodbye to any of the kids and was out of their lives for seven years, leaving me with two teenagers and a 9-year-old to raise on my own. He never paid a drop of child support.

I am remarried, and my husband and I like to have the weekends to ourselves. We would love it if Alice brought the kids over for a visit and stayed. But she drops them at the front door and speeds away. She is often gone for hours. She doesn’t answer her cellphone when I call to ask when she’s coming back. The kids run out to her car, and she zips off.

Alice never phones just to talk, only to ask me to babysit. If I don’t answer, she drives over and pounds on my door. I’m afraid to sit on the porch for fear she will show up and ask me to babysit. All of the children are now reunited with their father. Why doesn’t Alice ask him to babysit once in a while? -- Hiding Out in Indiana Dear Hiding Out: You need to be more assertive with Alice. Tell her that you’d like her to visit once in a while instead of using you as a drop-off service. Also say that you love the kids, but cannot babysit so much.

Be sure she knows you mean it. It’s OK to say no, even if it makes her angry. If you want to work out some type of payment, that’s between the two of you, but don’t be afraid to bring it up.

Dear Annie: I am an 87-year-old widower and am appalled at the number of letters in your column about bickering between parents, children, siblings, grandparents, friends, husbands and wives.

I wish I could share some of the love I am blessed to experience. After my wife of 52 years died, I went out late at night to clear snow from the church parking lot. Upon returning, there were four messages on my answering machine, and my granddaughter was calling to say her father was on his way to check on me -- a 40-mile round trip. So for the past 15 years, they have called every night, no matter where they are.

My son-in-law uses a week of his vacation to drive 1,500 miles to check on my 90-yearold sister. And he drives 80 miles on Sundays to get me to church. My granddaughters take me to the doctor, and my nephew and his wife often take me to dinner. My wife’s family includes me in their get-togethers. My son calls daily, and my grandson fills in when his family is out of town.

We reap what we sow. Love is like an echo: What you do or say will return to you. -- A Blessed Grandpaw Dear Grandpaw: It warms our hearts to know how close and loving your family is.

We wish everyone were so cherished. Thank you.

Dear Annie: This is for “Grimacing in Sarasota, Fla.” and all the toilet hoverers: Use a piece of toilet tissue to pick up the seat. Then hover all you want. When finished, use another piece of tissue to put the seat back down. Piece of cake! -- Ruth in Davenport, Iowa Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper 1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.

Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.

You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.

Cranbrook Kimberley Creston Fernie Marysville Wardner Wasa…

A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.

When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.

Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.

Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.

Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.

Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.

In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast.

Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.

When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Call today and start advertising.

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. — A cat that became famous for saving a central California boy from a dog attack threw the first pitch Tuesday night at a Bakersfield Blaze minor league baseball game — or at least she tried.

The cat, named Tara, was captured on security camera on May 13 when she pounced on a dog that attacked her 4-year-old human Jeremy Triantafilo.

The video, which has garnered 21 million views on YouTube, shows the dog biting and attempt-

ing to drag the boy. Within seconds, Tara leaps out and chases the canine away.

Jeremy needed 10 stitches in his left leg after the incident.

Ryan Triantafilo, Jeremy’s father, said he edited the video and posted it on YouTube for family and friends to see and that he never anticipated the flood of attention.

Tara, who followed Triantafilo and his wife, Erica, home from the park one night, has been smothered with love since her heroics.

“We’ve just given her a lot of

love, kept her in the house and paid a lot of attention to her,” he said.

There was a failed attempt at the game, between the Blaze and the Lancaster JetHawks, to have Tara “throw” the pitch using a baseball attached to a fishing line.

Tara might have been nervous, so Ryan Triantafilo helped the cat throw the pitch as he held her in his arms.

Meanwhile, Jeremy, ever grateful to his feline buddy, threw the game’s actual ceremonial first pitch.

Millions of bees swarm highway after truck crash ASSOCIATED PRESS

NEWARK, Del. — Delaware transportation officials on Wednesday warned motorists along Interstate 95 near Wilmington to keep their car windows closed and avoid unnecessary stops because of honeybee swarms unleashed by the crash of a tractor trailer carrying 460 hives.

The ramp to I-95 in Newark reopened more than 12 hours after the rig carrying an estimated 16 million to 20 million bees crashed Tuesday. Crews were spraying foam in the area to contain the swarms.

“There’s still some bees out there,” said state police spokesman Sgt. Paul Shavack.

The accident prompted state police to activate for the first time a honeybee swarm removal plan that was established in 1995, Shavack said.

“It worked really well,” he said.

The plan, which was updated in March, involves a response

A still from a YouTube video of the site of the crash that unleashed the bees. network of beekeepers statewide.

Three beekeepers from New Castle County responded to the scene after Tuesday’s accident.

The initial response including using fire hoses to tamp down the swarms.

Shavack said he was told that the bees were being transported from Florida to Maine to assist in

blueberry production.

The driver of the truck, Adolfo Guerra, 55, of Miami, was cited for unsafe shifting of load or cargo.

Guerra, his son, and another passenger were taken to Christiana Hospital for treatment of minor injuries from the crash and multiple bee stings.
