Farmers’ Market begins next week Serious crash on

Highway 93/95

C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor

After a massively successful first season, the Kimberley Farmer’s Market is back for its sophomore run, beginning next Thursday, June 25, from 5 to 7:30 p.m.

“The early growing season has got our growers ahead of schedule,” said market coordinator Erna Jensen. “We thought it would be kind of fun to start a week early and have locals come out to see what local produce is available.”

The Kimberley Farmers’ Market will once again be located on Howard Street, a location that worked out very well last year, Jensen said.

One person is dead and four others were sent to hospital after a crash on highway 93/95 near Skookumchuck on Sunday afternoon.

Kimberley RCMP Cpl. Chris Newel reports that police were notified of the crash just after 5 p.m. on June 14.

“BC Ambulance, Kimberley Fire Dept Highway Rescue all attended and assisted with the injured persons,”Newel said. “The male driver was ejected from the vehicle and died at the scene.

“One person was transported by ground ambulance; three others were taken to hospital by helicopter. The extent of their injuries is unknown but two have been transferred to a Calgary hospital.”

Police have confirmed that all of those injured, and the deceased, were from out of province.

Kimberley RCMP is continuing their investigation with the assistance of Southeast District Traffic Services.

“Local Search and Rescue volunteers who were in the area assisted in dealing with the injured persons,” Newel said.

I am not sure which astounded me more, discovering her note, or learning she even knew how to write. Taylor, my long time pack mate, was a dog who was complex, intelligent and always full of surprises.

It really wasn’t a surprise however, when she collapsed at the bottom of the hill on that gloriously warm day last autumn. After all, her body had been betraying her for so long. Crippled by worn out hip and elbow joints and having fought a yearlong war with inoperable cancer, Taylor’s existence had become a struggle. It was however, a battle she had been happy to fight. She continued to carry herself with such feisty dignity and vitality that the humans couldn’t bring themselves to intervene. There was still just too much lust for life sparkling in those eyes, for them to contemplate taking even a single day way from her.

Taylor was a stubborn dog. She liked to do things her own way and in her own time. So it was, that on a warm autumn day, after a short walk by herself, she decided it was time. Taylor allowed the spark to go out.

I found the note two weeks later. Tay’s scent had begun to fade from the house but I would catch her essence occasionally when I passed by our shared toybasket. There was one particular tattered and half destuffed teddy bear, tucked into the back of the basket that always caught my nose. From it’s slumping form Taylor’s fragrance still emanated. It had been one of our favourite toys to play tug-o-war with; a sport I now neither had a partner nor the heart for.

Eventually, my nose got the better of me and I pulled the teddy from its place in the pile. There, inside where the stuffing should have been, was a note, perfumed with my pack-mates scent and a last goodbye.

In a flowing cursive script that would envy even those with an opposable thumb, Taylor had written: Hello my family.

As I am no longer there to greet you with my enthusiastic - from the shoulders back - tail wag and make my silly growl/yodel dog noises, “Hello” will have to do.

You see this is not so much a goodbye note as it is a greeting from afar. It is also a thank you for sharing your lives with me while I romped on that plane. A better pack, a dog could not have wished for.

I found affectionate companionship from all members of my multi-species family: the dogs, the llamas, the humans, and as much as it pains me to admit it, even the cats. Unfortunately, this doggy- paradise could only be enjoyed for so long. With my corporal body failing and my discomfort increasing, I began to feel that my life’s essence was becoming spread thin. As Tolkien so eloquently put it, “Like too little butter scraped over too much bread.” But oh how I loved the taste of that butter.

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN

An unrestrained dogumentary.

In parting, I would like again to reiterate my thankfulness to have experienced this life and to have done it with you all. I was blessed to come to know the energy of your love. Which like all energies cannot be destroyed. It’s still out there somewhere.

I leave you with the task of going out and reclaiming as much of it as you can.

Taylor out.

Last week I was waiting in the vehicle while my human dude did some grocery shopping. (Yes, it was a cool day and the windows were down, so I was fine) Even though it had been nearly 7 months since I first read Taylor’s note, it still felt odd not sharing a car ride to the store with her.

Then, I was pulled from the thoughts of my old pack mate as I noticed a small human male racing across the parking lot pushing a cart towards the buggy coral we had parked beside. His worried mother ran after him begging him to slow down and be careful.

With a flourish and a smile he ran the cart into the line of buggies and then glanced up at the dog watching him from inside the nearby vehicle. Just for a moment our eyes met. I didn’t know the boy but I did recognize the mischievous glint I saw there. It was a sparkle that said, “A good dog is a clever dog. Not one that simply practices blind obedience.”

It was a sparkle I was surprised to see emanating from the eyes of a little boy, but then again, the old girl had always been full of surprises.

The sunset swim: A Taylor favourite.

Eventually however, as is the way with all forms blessed with the gift of life, we must complete the circle. It is my belief that both my physical and spiritual self will be broken down and redistributed into creation. Taylor may cease to be but my essences will live on forever, in a thousand different forms.

Pretty deep eh? What did you humans think I was contemplating during all those long naps I used to take? Chasing rabbits in my sleep indeed.

This belief of mine, my “dog-ma”, if you will, is not really so far fetched. Heck you can Google it! Look up “Conservation of Mass and Energy”. It says and I quote, “Mass and energy can be neither created nor be destroyed, but they transform from one form to another.” Thus both my carbon atoms and my life’s spark will be set free from this broken vessel to begin again eternally.

There you have it. Basic physics and I believe, metaphysics. Who knew that the meaning of life could be found right there on Wikipedia?

MP Wilks talks about proposed changes to drug act Arne Petryshen

The Conservative government has announced proposed changes to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. On Thursday, David Wilks, MP Kootenay Columbia joined the Honourable Rona Ambrose, Minister of Health, and Roxanne James, Parliamentary Secretary to Canada’s Minister of Public Safety and Emergency Preparedness, to announce the proposed changes to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA), with a focus on updating Health Canada’s nearly two-decade-old rules for drug control.

Wilks noted the CDSA has two core objectives — protecting public health and maintaining public safety.

“There are a number of areas where Health Canada inspectors, as well as the police, require updated legal authorities in order to keep up with the evolving drug trade,” Wilks said.

“The new legislation introduced today is designed to address

Rona Ambrose; Roxanne James, MP – Parliamentary Secretary; David Wilks, MP Kootenay -Columbia. those needs, and to address new drug abuse issues.”

Wilks said the proposed changes to the CDSA will equip the Minister of Health and law enforcement officials with better tools to more quickly control dangerous new drugs, combat illegal drug production and

distribution. He said it would also enable Health Canada inspectors to more effectively ensure compliance in the legitimate controlled substance industry.

He said the amendments would enhance law enforcement’s ability to dispose of seized goods more ef-

ficiently and safely, and strengthen criminal penalties for the illegal possession, production or sale of chemicals or equipment intended for use in the illegal production of a controlled substance.

Wilks said the proposed amendments also respond to the

Farmer’s Market starts next Thursday From Page 1 “The businesses were all so fabulously supportive of closing Howard Street, and they are thrilled with the market coming back,” Jensen said. “We got off to such a great start last year and we look forward to repeating it. It seems like everyone is excited about it.”

Jensen says there is a good lineup again this year, lots of returning vendors, and, as word of the market gets out, a lot of new vendors from up and down the valley.

“We’ve got new growers, new artisans, new food vendors, and some brand new folks — gardeners turned market growers.

“That’s a wonderful part of what a farmer’s market is — i­t’s that whole business incubator for folks who have ideas. That’s exciting.

Government’s commitment to address prescription drug abuse by strengthening the ability to inspect, monitor and regulate the movement of controlled substances within the legal supply chain, minimizing the potential for diversion.

It would also make

it easier to dispose of seized material where there is a health or safety risk to those involved resulting in safer environments, efficiencies and cost savings for police.

Wilks noted the illicit drug market is innovative, and has created new “designer” drugs that should be subject to the CDSA but are not yet regulated. This new authority will allow the Minister of Health to quickly schedule new substances, allowing for swift action as new drugs appear.

It will also give new authorities to levy fines will provide inspectors with more flexibility when bringing companies into compliance.

This legislation is in keeping with the Government’s National Anti-Drug Strategy which focuses on prevention and access to treatment for those with drug dependencies, while at the same time getting tough on drug dealers and producers who threaten the safety of our youth and communities.

News from the Kimberley Garden Club Submit ted by: Marilee Quist

With all the warmer than usual temperatures, it would appear that summer has arrived a little early this year. The plants, both garden plants and weeds, are responding happily, especially after the recent rain. I’m always amazed at how much more quickly weeds grow than my perennials! Now that my annuals are planted, I can go back to pruning the dead wood out of the Virginia Creeper. It’s not the quick and easy job I had envisioned - it’s going to take a lot longer than I originally thought, especially since

the dead vines are intertwined with the live ones!

The Garden Club would like to thank those who came out to our plant sale on May 23. Due to the cooler spring, perennial plants were slow coming up, at least in my garden, and the plants I had intended to pot up were barely up - too small to transplant into pots. I will pot up my contributions for next year’s sale this fall, and dig the pots into the garden.

We are now on our summer schedule of touring member gardens through September, and it was a treat on June 10th to be able to visit the Com-

munity/Seniors Greenhouse next to Lions Manor. Chris Vassallo, who is in charge of construction and securing old chest freezers from the transfer station for raised beds told us what was happening in the greenhouse (lots of very tempting looking ready veggies), and how the heating system works. Then, we went outside, and he showed us where he had inoculated the stumps of the cottonwood trees that had been cut down from the site with shitake mushroom spores. He is hoping that next spring, there will be shitake mushrooms growing on

the stumps. A very interesting and thoroughly enjoyable visit.

Following our greenhouse visit, we went on to a member’s garden and enjoyed the changes she has made since we were there several years ago. We enjoyed sitting on a cool, shady deck with refreshments supplied by the hostess. Following the lovely treats, we had a short business meeting. Our thoughtful gardener had number of plants, already potted up, that those present were free to take for their own gardens.

We will be touring two more gardens in July, date and time to be announced.

MLA Report Maximum action required on zebra and quagga mussels On the May long weekend in Alberta, a boat infested with zebra and quagga mussels was stopped by government inspectors before it entered Sylvan Lake.

Had that same boat been headed for Windermere or Shuswap Lake, chances are pretty high that the infestation of British Columbia’s waterways by quagga and zebra mussels would now be underway. There is every reason to believe that under the current inspection program in BC an infected boat will not be found before it reaches a lake.

Alberta is the most recent jurisdiction to take serious legislative action to ensure that their waterways are protected from zebra and quagga mussels. This invasive species, once it has entered the water system, can never be eradicated.

The consequences of infestation to our economy and our environment, should it occur, will be immeasurable.

The Alberta government recently passed legislation that makes

inspection mandatory for all boats entering the province, with fines for non-compliance and designated inspectors on the ground to ensure enforcement.

The British Columbia government, in contrast, has chosen to take what it refers to as a ‘stepped up’ approach which focusses on education and outreach.

Brynne Morrice, a young film maker from Vernon, has converted his passion for protecting our waterways into an international campaign against zebra and quagga mussels. You can watch his 6 minute video at www.protectourfreshwater.ca.

In a public statement Morrice made to the Minister of Environment he stated: “You said on CTV news that with your current preventative program you are ‘watching to see what works’.

Let me point out what should be obvious. If any part of your program doesn’t ‘work’, the result will be the infestation and subsequent destruction of our lakes and rivers.”

I cannot state this problem any more clearly than that. British Columbia must make boat inspection for every boat entering the province mandatory. We must have the inspectors on the ground to ensure that the law is enforced.

And there must be meaningful fines for non-compliance.

In a recently released statement by the Minister saying that there will be ‘new action’ to stop mussels this summer, the Minister claims to have an ‘early detection’ system. Let’s be clear.

Once zebra and quagga mussels are detected in BC waters, there is no going back.

Dealing with zebra and quagga mussels cannot be about early detection; it must be about 100% border protection. This is an issue that calls for maximum action, not just ‘watching to see what works’.

B.C. Briefs: No appeal for Schoenborn decision Jeff Nagel Black Press

The provincial government will not appeal the B.C. Review Board’s decision to grant escorted day trips to Allan Schoenborn, who was found not criminally responsible for killing his three children in a 2008 psychiatric episode.

Attorney General Suzanne Anton said prosecutors with the Criminal Justice Branch concluded the province had no likelihood of meeting the legal requirements for an appeal.

“I am confident they have reviewed all possible avenues for appeal,” Anton said.

“None of us are terribly

happy about this.”

Darcie Clark, the slain children’s mother, accused the province of paying victims “lip service” but not backing that up with action.

“We thought the B.C. government was our partner in this fight,” Clarke said in a statement, adding she is now in anguish.

“I will now live in consistent fear that he will move ahead with his threats against me, because as he has said, I am “unfinished business.”

Escorted day trips would be at the discretion of the director of Colony Farm psychiatric hospital in Coquitlam. The review board’s approval does

not necessarily mean Schoenborn will leave the facility.

Youth in care to get education fund Children who grow up in government care without parents setting aside a college fund are being promised a new potential source of aid for their education.

The province is putting $250,000 into the newly created Learning Fund for Young Adults (LFYA), which will be available to youth born in 2007 or later once they turn 17, provided they’ve spent at least a year in government care.

Disbursements for post-secondary educa-

tion or vocational training would start in 2024.

LFYA is to be an alternative to the existing BC Training and Education Savings Grant, which wasn’t available to many youth in care because it required them to have a Registered Education Savings Plan.

The province is also transferring $1.5 million into LFYA from the BCTES program account and $500,000 a year in subsequent years. That’s equivalent to $1,200 for each eligible child or youth in care.

“Children and youth who have been in government care deserve to have the same opportunities as their

peers from more traditional family backgrounds,” Children and Family Development Minister Stephanie Cadieux said.

The new fund is administered by the Victoria Foundation.

Other government programs offer help with tuition and other costs for former youth in care, who may also be eligible for tuition waivers now offered at many post-secondary institutions.

The province launched a new website agedout.com to provide help with life skills for youth who are about to turn 19 and age out of government assistance.

Waterloo: The Fall of a Superpower

T

hursday is the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Waterloo, and in the course of the day you are almost bound to hear or read somebody claiming that it “changed history.” It was a very big battle, after all, and it would be a century before Europe saw war on that scale again. But did the events of 18 June 1815 “change history”? Probably not.

The really decisive battle was fought a year and a half before that near Leipzig in Germany: the ‘Battle of the Nations’.

Three times more men were involved in that battle than fought at Waterloo. There were many more battles before the Russian, Austrian and Prussian armies entered Paris and Napoleon finally abdicated as Emperor of the French in the spring of 1814, but he never won another battle.

Napoleon was given a mini-kingdom on the island of Elba, off the Italian coast, to keep himself busy. The victors began to put Europe back together after twenty years of almost unbroken war, around 3 million combat deaths, and a comparable number of civilian casualties. And after only ten months, Napoleon escaped from Elba and went back to France for another try.

He moved fast, hoping to defeat the British army in what is now Belgium before the other allies arrived to reinforce it, and he almost succeeded. The British commander, the Duke of Wellington, said that the battle of Waterloo was “the nearest-run

thing you ever saw in your life.” In the end, late in the afternoon, the Prussian (German) army showed up and turned the tide.

But if Napoleon hadn’t lost at Waterloo, he would have been defeated a little later.

Britain had already overtaken France as Europe’s biggest economy (and in those days, that meant the world’s biggest economy). The industrial revolution in Britain was already into its second generation, while France had barely entered the first. Even in sheer numbers of people, a low birth rate meant that France would fall behind Russia, then behind GerGwynne many, and eventually even Dyer behind Britain in population.

So even if Napoleon could go on winning battles, he couldn’t win the war. In the end he couldn’t even win the battles. He was running out of soldiers, and his enemies had spent a generation at war learning (very expensively) to fight battles just as well as he did. Waterloo only confirmed what everybody with eyes could see already: France was finished as Europe’s superpower.

Then Britain got a century at the top (and after 500 years of Anglo-French wars, it never had to fight France again). The United States is now about 75 years into its term as the reigning superpower – and you are probably assuming that I am now going to speculate who gets the crown next.

Wrong on two counts.

First of all, it’s a thorny crown, and no-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

body in their right mind would want it. The relevant statistic (which hides in plain sight) is that the more powerful a country is, the more wars it fights and the more people it loses. More power doesn’t give you greater security; it just gets you into more trouble.

Secondly, about half the time there is no undisputed top dog. That was the situation for the century 1600-1700, when Spain was in visible decline but France was not yet ready to assume the mantle of sole superpower. It was equally true in 1945-1990, when nuclear weapons (the great equaliser) meant that the United States and the Soviet Union were co-equal superpowers even though the US economy was far bigger than the Soviet one.

And now, with the American superpower allegedly in decline, there is obsessive speculation about when China will step in and take over the role – or might it turn out to be India instead? As though it were still the early 19th century, when France was going down and Britain was taking over. It isn’t.

Military power doesn’t deliver the goods any more. The United States has lost almost every war and mini-war it has fought in the past fifty years (except Grenada and Panama), even though it accounts for around half of the planet’s spending on defence. In the present global strategic environment, decisive victories are about as rare as unicorns.

This is not necessarily a bad thing. In fact, it is probably a good thing. Victory is a much over-rated concept.

CFL’s Alouettes suspend DE Michael Sam C ANADIAN PRESS

MONTREAL - The Montreal Alouettes suspended defensive end Michael Sam on Monday, a move that frees up a roster spot while allowing the Alouettes to retain Sam’s CFL rights.

Sam left the Alouettes’ training camp for personal reasons last

week after being given special permission to return home to Texas.

His departure came three weeks after he became the first openly gay player to sign in the CFL. The 25-year-old Sam was selected in the seventh round of the 2014 NFL draft by the St. Louis Rams, becoming the first openly gay play-

er chosen by an NFL team. He was later cut by the Rams and from the Dallas Cowboys’ practice roster.

A star at Missouri in college, Sam earned SEC Defensive Player of the Year honours in 2013 before turning pro.

The Alouettes play their second pre-season game Thursday at home against Toronto.

Saskatoon to host UFC event C ANADIAN PRESS

Additional bouts will be announced in the coming weeks.

Saskatoon will become the eighth Canadian city to host a UFC event. The others are Calgary, Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, Winnipeg and Quebec City.

KIJHL’s Ghostriders sign trio of Sparwood players Taylor Rocca Sports Editor

Fernie Ghostriders head coach and general manager Craig Mohr added to his local contingent with the signing of three players.

Forwards Dalton Bouvier (1998), Jacen Richards (1998) and defenceman Trevor Broad (1998), all natives of Sparwood, put ink to paper with the Ghostriders this past weekend.

The trio all saw time with the club as affiliate players this past season and will look to move into full-time roles with the squad for the 2015-16 KIJHL season.

Richards, a 6-foot-2, 165pound left-winger, skated in six regular-season games with the Ghostriders last season, tallying one goal and two minutes in penalties. He also found his way into one playoff game, suiting up Feb. 25 during Fernie’s first-round se-

ries against the Golden Rockets.

Bouvier, a 6-foot-1, 181-pound centre, suited up in one game for the Ghostriders during the 201415 campaign.

Broad, the lone rearguard of the bunch, stands 5-foot-11 and 154 pounds. He found his way into three games with the Ghostriders last season, registering two minutes in penalties.

The first opportunity for Bouvier, Richards and Broad to solidify their places in the Fernie Ghostriders lineup will come Aug. 28 to 30 when training camp opens at Fernie Memorial Arena.

HOROSCOPES

by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19)

Push important ideas, and schedule meetings early. You naturally will present a matter far more successfully in the morning. Use your high energy to clear out calls and emails as quickly as possible. Try to head home early, even if you take some work with you. Tonight: Snuggle in.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Seek out more information if you’re inclined to take a financial risk, as you might not have the whole story. Making an agreement now could be costly. Later in the day, have a long-overdue conversation with a partner or special loved one. Tonight: Just go with the flow.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You naturally land in the middle of whatever is going on. You play the role of ringleader well, but by midafternoon you might choose to head in a different direction. A financial question needs more investigation in order for you to make a solid

decision. Tonight: Make it your treat.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) If you want, take the morning off. Some extra R and R might be helpful when your day takes off in the afternoon. Although your popularity is likely to soar, you might want to retreat and take some time for yourself. Be willing to screen your calls. Tonight: The world is your oyster.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Move quickly today, as you’ll want to accomplish any matter that is of prime importance.

Your strong drive might surprise a friend who wants more time with you. Once you achieve your goals, make time for this person.

Someone could share a secret.

Tonight: Where the gang is.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might feel pressured by an older person. Worry less, and you will make your mark. Your interpersonal skills become clear by midafternoon. A meeting could prove to be exceptionally important. Listen to what is being shared. Tonight: Among the crowds.

Tundra

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) A matter involving travel will pop up in the morning and continue throughout the next few days. You might want to rethink a decision you recently made, as it could be inappropriate. New beginnings become possible.

Tonight: Deal with impending matters that involve work.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)

One-on-one relating draws others out. You will have an opportunity to have a conversation with someone you care a lot about. You’ll discover that you can clear up a problem. You have a special opportunity for a new beginning. Tonight: Follow your imagination.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You don’t need to worry about what to do next. A key person will make the first move, and possibly the second and the third! You simply need to respond and go with the moment.

Conversations could become enlightening as the day ages.

Tonight: The only answer is “yes.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll want to get more done

than probably is possible. You will accomplish a lot until the afternoon, when others start to seek you out. At that time, you could find out some surprising news in conversations. Try not to react too quickly. Tonight: Go along with a suggestion.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) The mischievous glint in your eye doesn’t go unnoticed. You can push others only so far, as they seem to have more serious matters that take priority at the moment. Go with the flow. Get into a project that has been sitting on the back burner. Tonight: Get some exercise.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You can grumble only so much about a situation. Try to let go and relax. Give yourself the opportunity to make a new beginning. By the afternoon, your caring ways will allow you to move forward. Someone will open up, given some time. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My friend, “Josie,” recently joined a popular online dating site after her husband decided he’d rather be single. Josie met several interesting men on the site, and after chatting with them for a week or two, every single one of them asked her for money. She refused.

Finally, one asked her to cash a check for him. He spent about a month setting her up to be comfortable doing this favor and she fell for it. He and the bank took her money. The man said he would straighten it all out, but of course, he has failed to show up.

I want your help exposing this supposedly reputable online dating site.

It’s a very bad place for single women to find true love. It is really a site for unscrupulous male thieves to prey on vulnerable women. Something needs to be done to put a stop to this abuse and hold these larcenous Lotharios accountable for their misdeeds. What can we do? -- Angry Ann Dear Angry: The problem with online dating sites, even reputable ones, is that they cannot guarantee the honesty of all users. Josie should send all of the personal information she has on these men to the managers of the website and register a complaint, letting them know that the reputation of their site is at risk and that they need to do a better job of vetting their clientele and keeping these scam artists out. Women need to report these men or the managers won’t know, and some women are too embarrassed to complain.

Of course, the bottom line is that people, male or female, must protect themselves by refusing to do any “favors” that involve money. Period.

Dear Annie: My 85-year-old mother seems to be a loving, generous person.

But I know her to be extremely selfcentered. For example, I don’t dare mention that I might be sick or have a problem, because she will reply with a long list of her own complaints.

Everything she says, every story she tells, is turned around to make her look wonderful and important.

We recently had a family gathering, and I made a toast to my sisters-in-law and our children because they all had made important advancements in their careers and education. Before the toast was over, my mom piped up and said, “What about me?” and proceeded to ramble on about herself.

I am writing not to get advice, but rather to give it. I don’t care how old you are; don’t hog the spotlight. Listen to your children and grandchildren and be interested in their lives. Because of my mother’s narcissism, I have learned to be humble. Because of my mother’s self-centered attitude, I have learned to be sensitive to others. Because of my mother’s constant complaining, I have learned not to talk about my own aches and pains. I am sure that when she is gone, I will miss her. But the best thing she ever did for me was to teach me to be a better mother and grandmother by setting such a bad example. -- The Good Daughter Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

continue to turn to DAILY NEWSPAPERS for breaking news, analysis of the day’s top events and entertaining content, according to the latest NADbank data.

“Increased media competition, besides raising the editorial bar at dailies, doesn’t change one crucial fact”, says media buyer Bruce Claassen, CEO of GenesisVizeum (Toronto) and chair of Aegis Media Canada. “Daily newspapers offer the same benefits they always have: the ability to reach customers quickly. Only with a daily paper are you able to choose to do an ad and run with it in two days, and reach a sizable portion of the population, in a fairly mass, fairly broad and fairly fast way. That’s a set of qualities very few other media can match.”
