CRANBROOK CITY COUNCIL

Elizabeth Lake flooding continues, study to be done by end of August ARNE PETRYSHEN Townsman Staff

The city continues to move water out of Elizabeth Lake to mitigate the high water and lessen the impacts that flooding is having on nearby residents.

At council on June 23, Chief Administrative Officer Wayne Staudt said Urban Systems will conduct a study of the Elizabeth Lake water issue and downstream drainage system.

“We’ve authorized them to go forward with that study,” Staudt said.

The estimated cost of the project is $30,000, which is slated to come out of the General Fund Accumulated Surplus as an emergency expenditure, unless the city can find a non-city funding source. The study is expected to be complete by the end of August.

Provincial exams changed for Grades 10 and 11

On the eve of sitting three B.C.-wide exams, students learned that the Ministry of Education was dropping essay questions because of the teachers’ strike SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

Students in Grades 10 and 11 sat for provincial exams yesterday, Tuesday, June 24, but the exams were changed to accommodate the teachers’ strike.

The Ministry of Education told school administrators late on Monday that the exams for English 10, Social Studies 11 and Sciences Humaines 11 would have essay questions removed from them. Tuesday was the final day of provincial exams.

“In English 10, there is still a

small written response to a reading passage,” said Lynn Hauptman, superintendent of School District 5. “But the big, long creative writing essay was no longer required.”

Exams for Grades 10 and 11 will now be marked by school administrators, rather than teachers who are in the second week of a full strike.

“Some of us haven’t taught those subject areas for many, many years,” said Hauptman.

“So (the ministry) wanted to ensure quality of the marking.

That’s why they took out that part of it, in terms of ensuring that students were given a fair shake in the marking of their exams.”

Grade 12 exams have not been changed and they will be marked by teachers in the Lower Mainland, as they always are. A ruling by the Labour Relations Board deemed Grade 12 marks as an essential service, meaning teachers are required to do the marking despite the strike.

More than 90 trees planted in Moir Park

F o r t h e To w n s m a n

Over 90 new trees have been planted in Moir Park in Cranbrook this spring, thanks to BC Hydro and the City of Cranbrook.

BC Hydro contributed $5,000 from their ReGreening Program to

help with the purchase of the trees. The City of Cranbrook provided $15,000 toward the initiative including staff time and equipment to plant and maintain the trees. This is the fifth beautification project in which BC Hydro has

partnered with the City of Cranbrook.

Over the past 20 years BC Hydro has provided financial support for community tree planting in Cranbrook and communities throughout the East Kootenay.

BC Hydro and Tree Canada Foundation administer the Regreening Program and work directly with municipalities and communities around the province to support tree planting in urban areas.

McCormick will seek Kimberley mayor’s seat B a r ry Co u lt e r

A Kimberley City Council has announced his intentions to run for Mayor of Kimberley in the upcoming municipal elections in November.

Don McCormick says that over the course of his first three-year term on Council he’s been getting more questions about his running for mayor — and support for that idea.

“I’ve had so many people asking if I’m going to run or not, that the reason I’m declaring a little bit early is so I can start engaging with these people without having to be non-committal.”

McCormick feels he has the right leadership for the times, and for the period of time that Kimberley is about to enter.

“I think we’re at the stage in Kimberley right now

where if we want to get to the next level we need to have a different kind of leadership,” he told the Bulletin.

“I have a vision for the role of mayor. We have a well-paid CAO and competent staff to administer City operations. The mayor needs to focus on where we will be in five years and beyond, and work with Council to make that vision happen.”

McCormick said the mayor needs to sell Kimberley to the province, to the “feds” and to business interests, and to work closely with regional partners.

“The mayor needs to chase down money,” he said. “I want to be the city’s best salesman.”

McCormick was first elected to Kimberley City Council in the 2011 municipal election.

“The thing that I’ve really

DON MCCORMICK liked about (municipal politics) is that unlike at the federal or provincial level, municipal politics isn’t really politics. It’s about what’s right for the community. No matter what the higher political leanings — left or right

— at the end of the day it’s pretty much down the centre on what is in the best interests of this community.”

McCormick will be running on a platform of “sustainability.”

“Over that three years on Council, I’ve observed a couple of things: “First of all, we don’t really run a municipality like a business. My background is a business background.

Kimberley has a $27 million budget each year, so I look at it like a $27 million business.

“There’s two sides to that equation — the expense side and the revenue side.

And the one thing that’s really weak, particularly with Kimberley, is the revenue side. Our tax base has really born the brunt of the mine closing 12 years ago. And our taxes have been going

up at a fairly substantial rate.

“In my view, a five or six per cent a year increase is unsustainable, in a community like ours with 6,700 people.

“So we need to place some emphasis on the revenue side. We need new sources of tax money. Both from the business tax side, industrial tax side, and new people coming to town.”

Tourism alone isn’t the answer, McCormick said.

“We have a great tourism product, but tourism alone can’t save a community.

Tourism is hard on the business community. It’s fickle, it’s got peaks and valleys. It’s either feast or famine. And while it generates disposable income going into the business community, it doesn’t generate anything as far as taxes are concerned.

“If we don’t do something else, we’re going down a path where we’re going to have to cut expenses. And cutting expenses in any community is a very difficult thing to do.”

McCormick also feels Council has been under-utilized.

“We have tremendous talent on Council that needs to be engaged. My goal is to provide the leadership and guidance that maximizes that talent.”

McCormick and his wife Bev have lived in Kimberley since 2002. He operates Synersales Management, Inc., a consulting business.

McCormick is asking the citizens of Kimberley to share their concerns and ideas with him. Municipal elections across the province are slated for November 15, 2014.

Elizabeth Lake still has flooding issues Staudt said the study will be an important step in understanding why there is so much water coming into Elizabeth Lake.

“The other issue that’s more important to us is understanding our drainage system throughout the city and figuring out how much volume we can actually handle in the drainage system from Wattsville Road and down through the system,” he said.

“People that are familiar with it know that eventually that drains into Joseph Creek, but it also merges with Hospital Creek partway down, so it’s a fair amount of water that’s coming down that system and we’re concerned that there will be various choke points along that system that will tell us how much water... and improvements we need to make to our culverts or other things in the system so we can handle more water out of Elizabeth Lake.”

Staudt said the city has been having ongoing meetings with the regional district and with the Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure to figure out

Arne Petryshen photo

The City of Cranbrook has been using pumps at Wattsville Road to try to keep Elizabeth Lake levels down. how they can continue to move water out of Elizabeth Lake. They are currently working on a syphoning system that will pull more water out of the lake.

Earlier this month, the city and the Ministry tried to open up the culvert that runs under the highway, but there were immediate problems.

“It couldn’t keep up and we had flooding problems,” Staudt said, referring to downstream flooding.

Later in the meeting, during council reports, Coun. Gerry Warner said he was concerned

with the way the city had communicated with the public on the matter.

“How many people in Cranbrook know that the lake is now filled with effluent from the leaking septic tanks that have been flooded out at Caldwell Road?” he asked. “That’s not a healthy situation.”

He also said the city was too late in issuing a press release about staying off the flooded trails around the lake.

“I think we kind of dropped the ball on this one and now we’re paying for it with the possi-

bility of litigation against us by these angry Caldwell Road residents,” Warner said. “I wish we could act like good neighbours ourselves to our neighbours and not always go by advice we get from lawyers, lawyers in Vancouver, on how to deal with problems that we’re perfectly capable to deal with ourselves, here at home.”

Mayor Wayne Stetski countered Warner with his perspective on the matter.

“When you look back over what the city was doing, the city pumped water out of Elizabeth Lake for two months in a controlled manner. The principle behind that was we needed to take the appropriate amount of water out of Elizabeth Lake that the culverts under the highway could handle. Did the city sit back and do nothing? Absolutely not. The city was very active in trying to manage the amount of water coming out of the lake the entire time.”

Stetski said there have been multiple agency meetings over the period.

“I would agree with one aspect of your concerns and that’s that

perhaps we didn’t get our message out the way we could have or should have,” he said. “We rely

on the Regional District of East Kootenay to do our communications. In between the RDEK

communications we probably could have done some of our own too.”

Exams changed at last minute because of strike Continued from page 1 Students will be able to re-write any provincial exam within one year of sitting the exam, and in November they will be able to re-do the exams with the missing essay questions online.

“If they receive their marks for the exam and wish to see if they can improve it, they can still do that in November,” said Hauptman. “But their mark could either go up if they improve or go down.”

Meanwhile, students from kindergarten to Grade 9 will not receive report cards this summer.

“Because we are in full strike, we can’t produce report cards for Grades K through 9. We may have some marks in there from some teachers but they haven’t had a chance to check or verify them because they are on strike,” said Hauptman.

“Normally it’s our CUPE support staff who develop and print the report cards, and they are honouring the picket line and they’re not at work.”

Instead, Hauptman said she will write a letter to each students’ parents in Grades K through 9 in School District 5, which will contain the students’ attendance record, confirm that the child will progress to the next grade,

and explain why report cards cannot be issued.

Marks will be released for students in Grades 10 through 12, under the essential services order. But the report card will contain only an attendance record and school-based final marks; there won’t be any comments.

“Those final grades will also be released to the Ministry of Education for students’ graduation transcripts so that they are accessible by post-secondary institutions,” said Hauptman.

Summer school in School District 5 has been cancelled because administrators don’t know whether the full strike will continue into the summer.

“We need teachers to teach summer school and we are not in a position to hire the teachers for summer school. At this point, we also don’t know whether pickets will continue over the summer; we have not received any official word from BCTF as to whether they will be continuing to picket,” said Hauptman.

Mount Baker Secondary School’s commencement ceremonies are scheduled to take place this Thursday, June 26, and they will continue as planned. The gradua-

tion commencement ceremonies will be held at Western Financial Place starting at 5 p.m.

However, instead of grads meeting at Mount Baker to receive their grad gowns and then walking to Western Financial Place, all of the proceedings will take place at Western Financial Place, including mustering and handing out of the gowns.

Although teachers won’t be a part of the ceremonies, they will be able to attend the cere-

monies if they wish because it won’t be held on school grounds.

“That way if teachers wish to go there, they still can because it’s not within the school,” said Hauptman.

“The commencement ceremonies are a very important part of every child’s school career. So we have worked with the union to ensure that things could still go forward.”

In Kimberley, Selkirk Secondary School’s commencement cere-

monies are scheduled for Saturday, June 29 at the Kimberley Civic Centre at 3 p.m.

Negotiations between the B.C. government and teachers have broken down as the B.C. Teachers Federation heads into the second week of a full-scale strike. Both sides have agreed to hire a mediator to help the bargaining along, but have not yet been able to find a mediator to take on the role.

The union and the

province are at loggerheads over wages, class size and composition.

The last day of school for the 2013-2014 year was scheduled to be Thursday, June 26.

Hauptman said that in School District 5, teachers and administration continue to work together to solve problems related to the unprecedented job action.

“We have worked very hard to maintain constant communication with the union, and

they with us. I have heard that’s not the case in every district. I am very proud of that fact: that we have been able to continue to work through issues as they have arisen and tried to find ways to arrive at solutions that will benefit our students.

“This is the first time for all of us: we’ve never had this sort of prolonged situation, and never at the end of the year. This is why there have been so many last-minute decisions.”

Cranbrook brick building not yet free from demolition order Arne Pe tryshen Townsman Staff

Despite all of the support and fundraising that’s come about for the brick building behind Cranbrook City Hall, there’s still a demolition order hanging over its head — set to again take effect Aug. 14, 2014.

At council on Monday, June 23, city staff put forward four options to council with regards to the brick building — A, B, C and D. “Out of the options presented here, it seems to me the simplest one would be Option A,” Mayor Wayne Stetski said. That option would again postpone the earliest demolition date to Jan. 15, 2015, to give the association the opportunity to reach a certain fundraising threshold.

Option B would rescind the March 18, 2013, resolution approving the demolition of the brick building, but

The old electrical building behind Cranbrook City Hall. leaves the original resolution from March 21, 2011 in place. Option B would have to be done with Option C, which suspends the portion of the original resolution that deals with the demolition. That would stop demolition until a Heritage Altercation Permit is approved by council.

Option D is to wait until Aug. 14, 2014, the date when council can once again authorize staff to carry out the demolition.

Coun. Gerry Warner said according to the city staff report, there’s been a misunderstanding in how much the Cranbrook Heritage Association has raised. He noted the report states the association has raised only $100 on top of the $9,000 grant from

Columbia Basin Trust, but has likely raised much more.

CAO Wayne Staudt said the city is only speaking to the amount of money that has been raised through the city hall drop off point.

In the report, staff also uses the original estimate of $134,365 for restoration by KLB Engineering. City administration did not include a later report done by Nelson Engineering Inc for Ken Haberman. That report was much more barebones as to what the building would need to be structurally safe, rather than a functioning building, as it is in the prior report.

“I remember the report we had from the association suggested $40,000 to do what they

intended to do, not the $134,000 that was in the original report,” Mayor Wayne Stetski said.

CAO Staudt said that the higher cost amount is what it would take to get the building ready for some public use.

“If you want to take it to a point where it can have some use of it, it’s in the $130,000 range,” he said. “Any public use is going to require a much larger dollar investment.”

Coun.

Denise Pallesen said the association needs to have a threshold, or it could go on and on.

“I think that (a threshold of) $20,000 or $40,000 is too low.

“So $20,000 is raised.

Now what? What if they are not able to raise any more money?” she said.

Townsman file photo

“I’m thinking more $50,000 or $75,000 as a fundraising threshold.”

Coun. Bob Whetham said that adapting the building for some other purpose is not an immediate concern, rather it is making it structurally sound in order the keep it in its current location.

“I think if we can find out what the threshold would be to make the building structurally safe … that being the figure that we should be looking at, because I think that represents what the city’s primary concern is,” Whetham said.

The city will be meeting with the association to get the fundraising information and will bring another report to council on Aug. 12.

Man rescued from Kootenay Lake Will Johnson Nelson Star

Lisa and Gusti Callis were spending the day at the beach Saturday afternoon when they noticed someone calling for help on the water.

“I had just gotten home from town on my bike,” said Lisa. “I walked down to the

beach to say hi to my husband and I heard shouting from the water.”

She said they could see someone a third of the way across Kootenay Lake from Kokanee Park Beach. They quickly jumped in their canoe and paddled out to investigate.

“I said to my husband ‘I think we better go out there’. He was swimming back to shore, but going really slow. He had a lifejacket on, but it wasn’t on properly. And he was hauling his daypack,” she said.

Lisa believes the man was nearly hypothermic

when they pulled him into their boat.

When they reached shore, emergency vehicles had already been contacted but the man said he was okay. Another Good Samaritan helped him retrieve his kayak.

Cranbrook transmission crews complete complex work in the Kootenays Submit ted

BC Hydro power line technicians from Cranbrook recently completed a significant maintenance project on a 500 kilovolt line in the West Kootenay region. The specialized crew used helicopters to help install more than 1,800 spacer dampers and 250 arcing horns on the high voltage towers and wires.

On high voltage power lines, spacer dampers hold the individual bundled wires apart. The new spacer dampers have high grade rubber to absorb vibration, wind and the impact of inclement weather. It is anticipated they will extend the lifespan of the lines by 70 years.

New arcing horns were also installed as part of this project. Arcing horns protect the insulators from lightning damage, which are designed to prevent insulator damage and reduce maintenance costs.

To complete the work, power line technicians climbed the towers or landed on the top of the towers using a helicopter, and lowered themselv es into buggies. The buggies were hung on the wires and moved along the line using specialized gas powered motorized pullers. Tools and mate-

know if he was super embarrassed, but he didn’t really want to talk about it. He said ‘I fell out of my boat’ and then he went home,” she said.

The Callis’ neighbour Ursula Lowery

originally alerted the Star to the incident.

“I think it should serve as a warning to other people,” said Lowery.

“The lake is still really cold. You need to be

careful out there.”

The incident stands as yet another reminder of the importance of lifejackets, after a canoe accident claimed the lives of four youths this year on Slocan Lake.

B.C. prevents commercial marijuana grow-ops from getting farm tax break C anadian Press

VANCOUVER — The B.C. government says medical marijuana companies won’t be able to take advantage of a property tax break that was designed for agriculture.

Mayors in B.C. have been raising concerns that marijuana growing operations could set up on expensive industrial land and then ask to be taxed as farmland.

The classification could dramatically reduce those companies’ property taxes, in some cases by tens of

CANADA BC • www.Kimberley.ca

thousands of dollars.

The province says it plans to exempt medical marijuana operations from the agricultural tax designation beginning in the 2015 tax year.

In April, new federal rules took effect that moved medical marijuana production to licensed commercial growers.

There are currently five operators in B.C. that have been approved by Health Canada, but the federal government has received hundreds of applications.

ometimes when one throws a pebble into a pool of water, it is surprising how far those ripples spread (maybe that’s the wrong metaphor).

Sometimes, when the butterfly flaps its wings, the chain of events it causes will result in a hurricane hundreds of miles away (that’s not quite right either).

Metaphors aside, it appears that the community of Oak Bay, in Victoria, is unable to mount its scheduled deer cull, because of the theft of several so-called clover deer traps in Cranbrook last February. And so finally, the whole “deer management” issue has entered the realm of the surreal.

Townsman/Bulletin readers will recall that the traps were stolen when someone cut through the chain link fence of a Ministry of Environment compound in Cranbrook. Seven of 10 stolen traps were eventually found, but six had been damaged beyond repair. Three were never recovered.

No one was ever charged with that particular act of vandalism. However, as we all know, later that month someone was charged for a similar caper in Kimberley, in which four of five traps were damaged. It doesn’t take a mathematician, as they say, to figure out that you can’t carry out culls with only two traps — one left in Cranbrook, one left in Kimberley.

The Victoria Times-Colonist reports that Oak Bay has sent a letter to to Steve

Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, demanding that more clover traps be built, so that the cull can go forward. There was no word, as of press time, that Minister Thomson was rushing without delay to authorize the construction of clover traps.

Oak Bay has apparently spent a lot of money to get the point where they Barry to were ready to conduct their Coulter cull.

Up until now, as a province, we have fully committed to conducting our deer culls using clover traps, but we need more than two. And as of press time … (see two paragraphs above).

When it comes to deer culls, it seems we live by the clover trap, and we die by the clover trap — though that’s probably a terribly wrong way to say it (though maybe not from the deer’s perspective).

But things are changing — except for the number of traps in circulation, of which there are two. Penticton called off its clover trap cull — basically just throwing up their hands and giving up. They’re not even going to talk about the deer anymore. It’s like the deer won’t exist. “Urban deer? What are you talking about?”

Invermere is determined to press ahead with its deer cull — good luck with that.

In Cranbrook, a recent city-commissioned survey showed a surprising number of residents in favour of the cull. Well, we have one clover trap left in Cranbrook, right? Maybe we can borrow the one left in

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Kimberley. So we’ll have two clover traps to conduct our cull. Maybe we can cull two deer.

Yes, we’ve invested all our culling emotions in our clover traps, however many there are (two, at last count, as of press time, etc).

Other suggested avenues have been turned down. Herding the deer out of town with specially trained dogs is not on.

There are laws against it. Suggested programs of sterilization so that the deer are rendered infertile are met with near universal mockery. So is the proposed program of taming the deer over several generations so they can be used to carry our golf bags on the fairways. And so on.

The only option left unpondered is mine — that of building a cavernous flying saucer, herding the deer onto it (not using trained dogs, either, but just by us walking towards them, clapping our hands), and flying the urban deer off to one of those new planets they’re always discovering these days.

I urge both Cranbrook and Kimberley City Councils to take steps to conduct feasibility studies on this project without delay. I will also be writing my MLA, to invite him to bring up in the Legislature my strategy for dealing with the “province’s deer.”

Or, failing all this, we can wait around for more clover traps to be built, so we can move ahead with our urban deer management strategy, the only one we have.

Ball tournament remains popular TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

For three straight days, slo-pitch teams battled each other until the winners emerged at the annual Sam Steele ball tournament this past weekend.

Hosted by Moir Park and the Kinsmen Quad ball diamonds, roughly 72 teams playing in four different competitive divisions all day, all night, and sometimes into the early hours of the morning in one of Western Canada’s largest slopitch tournaments.

With $1,000 in prize money on the line in the

competitive division, Riot came through to beat DITB for the win.

Teams in the recreation divisions were given apparel and other prizes for their efforts that added up to roughly $10,000.

Once again, the tournament was organized by a conglomerate of local groups—the Cranbrook Minor Ball Association, Cranbrook Mixed Slo-Pitch, Cranbrook Bandits, and the men’s baseball team— with all profits going back into improving baseball facilities in Cranbrook.

Last year, the funds went into making a new batting cage at Confederation Park, but this year, getting bathrooms at the diamonds in Moir Park is the priority.

“The biggest thing is that the money that we’re raising is going back into the bathrooms at Moir [Park] at the ball parks,” said Seana-Lee Coolbaugh, the president of the Cranbrook minor ball association.

“Any money raised from this tournament goes back into the ball fields.”

Ryan Huska has taken the next step of his coaching career.

The Cranbrook native, who has spent the last 12 years with the Kelowna Rockets, was named head coach of the AHL’s Adirondack Flames on Monday.

“I feel like it’s a great opportunity for myself and my family and a chance to work with Brad Treliving, Brad Pascall, Craig Conroy and the rest of the management group there,” said Huska, in an interview with NHL.com. “It’s a thrill for me and I’m super excited for a chance to spend some time with and learn from Bob Hartley and his coaching staff.”

Huska has had a decorated career as a player and coach; he has three Memorial Cup rings (1992, 1994 and 1995) during his major-junior career with the Kamloops Blazers. As an assistant coach, he won the Memorial Cup in 2004 and was with the team when they

went to the same tournament in 2003 and 2005. Leading as head coach in 2009, the Rockets won the WHL championship, but were defeated in the Memorial Cup final.

After joining Kelowna as an assistant coach in 2002, Huska was promoted to run the bench in 2007. In seven years as head coach, his teams have not finished below 0.500 and he set a franchise record with 57 wins last year.

“I’m thrilled for him and I think this is long overdue,” said Rockets President/GM Bruce Hamilton. “This is an opportunity Ryan has deserved for many years. He’s done a wonderful job for us and we will be his biggest fans.”

Huska has also worked on the international stage as an assistant coach with Team Canada at the World Junior Championship, capturing a silver in 2011 and a bronze in 2012.

Though born in Cranbrook, Huska was raised in Trail in the West Kootenay.

HOROSCOPES

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Unexpected developments could pull you away from a key activity. Communication seems to flourish. If you encounter a difficulty, initiate a conversation with a friend, and he or she will offer feedback. Touch base with a difficult associate. Tonight: Go with the moment.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might be a lot friendlier than usual. Perhaps you have had a sudden insight or a revelation that points you to a new attitude. Don’t push someone away, if possible. Respect your differences. Tonight: Your significant other or best friend might be uptight.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll come up with many new ideas. You have a unique opportunity to share more of what is important to you. A discussion with a loved one could become animated, but not necessarily quarrelsome. Tonight: Be in the moment 100 percent.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your ability to understand what is going on with a child or pal might be challenged. It seems as if the other party might feel criticized when any question or suggestion is made. You might want to keep your thoughts to yourself. Tonight: Stay close to home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might decide to focus on a project and enlist others’ support. You could feel a bit odd around an associate or loved one. A real estate matter or domestic issue is likely to present a limitation. Don’t feel awkward -- just handle the issue. Tonight: Join friends.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your ability to handle pressure emerges. There might be one area of your life where you overindulge in order to relieve some stress. Take action, and be willing to verbalize what is necessary to correct the situation.

Tonight: Out till the wee hours.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might be more forceful than you realize. Share your

Tundra

bottom line with a friend in order to get some feedback. You have been more volatile lately, and it would be good for you to get advice from someone you respect. Tonight: Experiment with a new idea.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be pushing a lot harder than you realize. Listen to news more openly, and you’ll see how you can put a positive spin on a difficult situation. A new beginning becomes possible, especially if a close friend agrees with you. Tonight: Hang with a favorite person.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might need to have a long-overdue discussion. You seem to see a matter differently from how a partner or friend sees it. A conversation will be necessary, even if you see little chance for agreement. Clear the air. Tonight: Add a festive element to a get-together.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Be more direct with someone in your life; otherwise, this person will have no way of knowing where you are coming from. You

will be anchored in a discussion with a family member who likely will agree with you. Tonight: Get some exercise, then decide.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) A friend might express his or her caring in a way that inadvertently causes you a problem.

Explain where you are coming from, and remain sensitive to this person’s feelings. Someone you look up to could cause a problem; he or she needs your time. Tonight: Ever playful.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Take news with a grain of salt.

One-on-one relating will take you down a new path. A partner could be angry and a bit upset.

Give this person some space to consider his or her options. Stay as neutral and unreactive as possible. Tonight: Run an errand on the way home.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I was an army medic who served two deployments in Iraq and saw more than two years’ worth of war injuries. Seeing injured soldiers, many of them young, maimed and seriously wounded, while also being concerned for your own life can have an impact on you long after you are out of the situation.

After my second deployment, I relocated to San Francisco for a fresh start. It turned out that the busy city, with its noises and crowds, was extremely difficult, and I started feeling depressed and anxious, having panic attacks if people got too near.

When a homeless man tapped my shoulder while I was waiting for a train, my reaction was so strong that I nearly threw him on the tracks. When a bus I was riding turned a corner and a can rolled by, the sound made me think I was about to be impacted by an IED explosion. Even the humming noise of a lot of people brought back memories of mass casualties, as did certain smells.

I eventually secluded myself in my home, unwilling to risk the pain that reliving the memories of war caused. After a particularly bad panic attack, I sought help. I’m happy to say that therapy and mindfulness techniques worked well for me, and I hope others in my situation will seek help, too.

June 27 is PTSD Awareness Day. Anyone can take the first step toward healing by taking a free, anonymous PTSD self-assessment. Nearly 70 percent of people have experienced a trauma in their lifetime, and about 20 percent of them later experience PTSD. Service members, veterans and their families can take an assessment at MindBodyStrength.org, and the broader community can visit PTSDScreening.org.

I want people with PTSD to know they can get help. Sincerely -- Elijah Ochoa Dear Elijah Ochoa: We appreciate your service to our country and your openness about sharing your experiences. We are glad to know that you received the help you needed and deserved, and we hope others will take advantage of this free resource.

Thank you for writing.

Dear Annie: Please print my pet peeve.

I am a senior citizen and dislike the terms used by waitresses, waiters and others serving the public. I feel that I’m being patronized when they call me, “Sweetie,” “Honey,” “Darlin’,” “Angel,” etc. These words are not endearing and make me want to decrease my tip.

“May I take your order, please?” is all that is necessary. If you know my name, use it.

Otherwise, please stop speaking to me as if I were 5 years old. -- B. Dear B.: There are some folks who like these terms of endearment, but we agree that they can seem patronizing. No server wants to insult you. If you don’t like such terms, please speak up, politely, and tell the server, “I’d appreciate it if you didn’t call me ‘honey.’” We are certain the server will comply.

Dear Annie: “Smothered in California” resents that her in-laws invite them to dinner once a month and want to attend all of the kids’ activities. She sounds a bit self-centered.

My in-laws babysat my kids whenever I needed help. I invite them to all of my children’s sporting events and school events.

We dined out with them once a week when my boys were little. We spend part of every holiday with them.

I never had a close relationship with my grandparents and took great pains to ensure that my sons did. My oldest is now 21, and my youngest is 16. I can’t get my boys to clean their rooms, but if the grandparents call and say they need help, it’s a done deal.

The in-laws won’t be around forever. They obviously want to be involved. Be glad it’s not the reverse. -- Grateful in Western Pennsylvania Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Monarch butterflies may use magnetic compass for autumn migrations to central Mexico Associated Press

NEW YORK — A new study suggests that monarch butterflies use an internal magnetic compass to help navigate on their annual migrations from North America to central Mexico.

Scientists already knew they navigate by the sun. But the insects do just fine on very cloudy days, leading to suspicions they also use a magnetic compass, like migratory birds and sea turtles. Previous studies haven’t made a

clear case for that, according to researchers who report the new work Tuesday in the journal Nature Communications.

The scientists tethered monarchs in a chamber without any outdoor light and showed that their flight patterns responded to changes in the magnetic field. Further work suggested the compass is in the antennae.

Millions of the blackand-orange butterflies spend the winter in Mexico.

Casey passed away peacefully at the age of 93 in Invermere.

His family preserves the memories of his infectious humor and personality.

Casey always had a friendly smile to share with everyone. His family values and his faith were strong and steadfast. We will miss the head of our family.

Caseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family was featured in a story written by Elinor Florence about his heroic family from Holland that hid a Jewish family during the Second World War. His parents were honored with the Righteous Among the Nations recognition for their bravery and conviction.

Born in Nijverdal, Holland, Casey immigrated to Canada with his family in 1951 after the Second World War. His family settled in Alberta and Casey moved to Kimberley, BC where he met the love of his life, Toni Scheffer, another Dutch immigrant. They bought the Kimberley City Bakery in 1960 while raising three sons and a daughter. They spent part of their retirement years at Wasa Lake and Cranbrook and then moved to Invermere in 2003 to be closer to their family.

Casey is survived by his wife Toni, of 62 years, his sons Arnold (Donna), Pieter (Cathy), Andy (Sony) and daughter, Jami. He was an Opa to 10 grandchildren, and 8 great grandchildren. He leaves behind his younger brother and sister.

For those that would like to celebrate the amazing life of Casey, please join his family at the Fairmont Cemetery on Saturday June 28th, 2014 at 2:00 pm and then at Pynelogs Cultural Centre in Invermere at 5:30 pm for the Funeral and Celebration of Life.

In lieu of flowers, donations will contribute to a bench in honor of Casey. For any more information please call 250-342-5330.

Celebrating Sam Steele with sports While Sam Steele Days honours the region’s pioneering lawman, the event is also chock-full of sports, drawing teams for the annual slopitch, soccer and bocce tournaments.

Athletes came to compete at the fan-favourite Strongman competition, while the Wheels of Steele—a new event—featured local dirt bike riders showing off their skills at Balment Park. Photos by Trevor Crawley and Arne Petryshen.
