In our special supplement welcoming the return of the Kootenay Ice to Western Financial Place for the Home Opener Weekend, the dates in the banner at the top of the pages stated the games were to be played Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 28th and 29th. The correct days are actually Friday and Saturday (though the 28 and 29 remain true and correct). The Townsman/ Bulletin apologizes for the calendrical curiosity. So head on down to Western Financial Place Friday and Saturday, hockey fans, and go Ice go.

Fall Fair booths sold out inside C AROLYN GR ANT bulletin@cyberlink.ca
The Kimberley Community Fall Fair is always a success and each year the number of people who attend increases. As those numbers increase, the number of exhibitors rises as well as small and large businesses seek to tempt fair-goers with their wares. Chair Bev Middlebrook says she has exhibitors from as far away as Moose Jaw, Sask. and Vancouver booked for this weekend’s big event —part of a sold out array of booths at the Marysville Arena. Events inside sold out two weeks before the Fair, but Middlebrook will be selling space outside right up until Friday. Middlebrook says there are lots of new booths as well as the favourite regulars, lots of food booths inside and out, plenty of kids’ activities in the Kiddies Corner, and an outdoor beverage garden. It all happens this weekend, Saturday and Sunday at the Marysville Arena. “It’s going to be another great year,” Middlebrook said.

Dr. Goodall to leave a lasting legacy of education Dr. Jane Goodall will meet with students and educators to launch her Roots and Shoots program in Cranbrook Annalee Gr ant Townsman staff
Dr. Jane Goodall is headed to Cranbrook this weekend for a whirlwind tour, and she will leave behind a legacy of knowledge
when she takes off on Tuesday. Susie MacDonald, program co-ordinator for Columbia Basin Environmental Education Network’s Wild Voices for Kids, said Goodall will speak to 575 elementary students, mostly Grade 6s on Monday at the Key City Theatre. She hopes those students will spread the knowledge from Goodall’s talk to their peers when they return to school. “We’re hoping there’s going to be a lot of drop down from this,” MacDonald said,

adding that Grade 6 is the perfect age for Goodall, because younger students may not understand her language. Each school will get a chance to ask the world-renewed primatologist one question. MacDonald said the students are already working together to come up with that one great question to pose to Goodall. One student will be selected to address her directly and ask it. “Students are still preparing,” MacDonald said.
The focus of Goodall’s talk will be on Roots and Shoots, a national program that encourages people to improve the quality of life and environment for people and animals. Goodall along with MacDonald will be launching Roots and Shoots in Cranbrook and encouraging students and their teachers to get involved with environmental programs and projects in their area. MacDonald said Goodall is very involved in the program.

Kootenay Park traffic fatality
By Ste ve Jessel Invermere Valley Echo
The Columbia Valley had a number of auto accidents over last weekend with at least three separate incidents, one of which, in Kootenay National Park, resulting in a fatality. First, on Friday September 21, RCMP attended a scene where a 2010 Hyundai Santa Fe had driven off of a 10 ft embankment near 6th Ave in Invermere. The car was found laying on its roof in the wetlands near John Chabot Provincial Park. RCMP surmise that the driver, a 71-year-old from Edmonton had mistakenly hit the gas instead of the brake and subsequently crashed down the rock embankment. RCMP, Invermere Fire Rescue and a tow truck were required to extract the Brenna Baker photo driver and the 66 year old pasTyler Setzer, Mindy Crever and Corey Baker are pictured with the Fort Steele Clydesdales after demonstrating the senger from the vehicle, with Michigan Big Wheel at the North Idaho Draft Horse Show over the weekend. The Big Wheel was used to haul logs each suffering only minor inout of the forest before mechanized equipment was available. Fort Steele had a great showing coming home with juries. plenty of hardware in many different classes. Just minutes after, the RCMP were called to another accident, a two-car collision on the hill on 13th St., also in

Fort Steele’s iconic Clydesdales were well received at this past weekend’s Idaho Draft Horse Show, snatch-
ing up ribbons left and right. Tyler Setzer, livestock manager for Fort Steele Heritage Town, said the farm’s best placing was the 4-up driving team landing second over all. They also thrilled the crowd with their Michigan Big Wheel earning first place for farming equipment. “The horses did absolutely stunning,” he said. The horses traveled to Sandpoint, Idaho for the third time after a busy summer of preparations and other en-
gagements such as the Calgary Stampede Parade and Draft Horse Town. “It’s a pretty good sized show,” he said. Making the journey along with the Clydesdales were a number of volunteers and Fort Steele staffers that did jobs like grooming. Setzer said the show couldn’t have happened without their dedication. “We sure appreciate them helping out,” he said, extending a big thank you to all who helped make the Idaho

The climes they are a’ changing Columbia Basin Trust releases another report on climate change C AROLYN GR ANT bulletin@cyberlink.ca
Climate in the Columbia Basin — in Kimberley — is changing. In fact a new report from the Columbia Basin Trust, ‘From Dialogue to Action: Climate Change, Impacts and Adaptation in the Canadian Columbia Basin, recently released as part of its Communities Adapting to Climate Change Initiative, says by the 2050s average annual temperatures could rise 1.6 to 3.2 degrees Celsius. The new report and an executive summary are a continuation of work begun in 2007 with a CBT report entitled ‘Starting the Dialogue’. “The climate in our Basin has
changed over the last 50 years and is projected to continue changing over the coming decades, so providing communities and residents with current information about climate impacts and adaptation can help them plan to be more resilient to these changes,” said Kindy Gosal, CBT Director, Special Initiatives. Why should anyone worry about a warming climate? As the report outlines, a change of two degrees or even less may seem small, but it can actually have profound effects on ecosystems and human health. It can effect the tourist economy in both positive and negative ways. A longer summer would be a positive for golf and camping, but
warmer winters may mean more rain than snow which would have a negative effect on the ski industry. More precipitation in the winter can also mean unstable hillsides, more landslides. Extra precipitation was certainly in evidence this past winter runoff season with landslide events in many parts of the province. Here are some of what the report says will occur as temperatures rise in the Columbia Basin: Glacier Runoff: Between 1986 and 2000, there was a 16 per cent loss of total glacial area in the Basin. Most of BC’s glaciers are continuing to lose mass and many may disappear within the next 100 years.

Invermere. A 2004 Dodge Caravan driven by a 40-year-old Invermere male was struck when a 1997 Buick Skylark driven by an 84-year-old failed to yield at a stop sign, proceeding through the intersection and striking the Dodge Caravan. Only minor injuries were reported, and the 84-year-old driver was charged with failure to yield. Finally, Columbia Valley RCMP were informed of a fatal single vehicle accident on Hwy 93 in Kootenay National Park, about 8 km west of the B.C. Alberta border on September 23. A 2001 Volvo driven by a 67-year-old man collided with a moose while in the eastbound lane, at which time the vehicle exited the roadway. It was determined at the scene that a 73-year-old passenger was deceased, while the driver was taken to Banff hospital before being flown to Calgary. The Columbia Valley Detachment of the RCMP will continue to assist the Coroners office as this investigation continues.

Report outlines coming climate change Continued from page 3 Glaciers are essential freshwater reservoirs that contribute significantly to stream flows in late summer and fall. Declines in summer flows from glaciers may occur in the future as the volume of ice declines. Water Temperatures: Rising summer air temperatures and diminishing cold water inputs from glaciers may increase water temperatures in Basin streams and lakes. This could affect temperature-sensitive aquatic species like bull trout, disrupt the development of fry in some species and impact water quality if different bacteria and algae start to flourish. Stream Flows: Changes in stream flows may occur as some Basin rivers and streams shift from being snow-dominated to hybrid or rain-dominated. Stream flows will also be impacted by an earlier spring melt, earlier peak flows, lower latesummer flows and higher winter flows. A study of south-central BC found that the spring peak flow occurred an average of 20 days earlier between 1984 and 1995 than between 1970 and 1983. Freeze/Thaw Changes in the frequency of freeze/thaw cycles may vary from location to location. At locations where temperatures currently fluctuate near zero during the spring, winter and fall seasons, increased temperatures may result in fewer freeze/thaw events. Where temperatures often hover just below zero, more frequent freeze/thaw cycling may occur. Sites that are consistently well below zero may have a similar frequency of freeze/thaw events as they have had historically, although they may occur later in fall and earlier in spring. Rain-on-snow: The projected warming and increases in winter precipitation falling as rain could result in an increase of rain-onsnow and rain-on-frozen-ground events in the Basin. These events create more runoff than rain falling on soil because they cause a partial melt and may, in certain circumstances, trigger landslides, mass-wasting or flooding. Flooding: There may be greater potential for flooding due to more frequent and intense rainstorms, increased glacier melt, more rain-onfrozen-ground and rain-on-snow events, and higher winter peak flows. Flooding may also occur more frequently in late winter or early spring than in the past. Droughts: Summer soil moisture levels may decline due to smaller winter snowpacks at lower elevations, less summer rainfall and warmer summer temperatures with more hot days and longer warm spells. These conditions create the potential for more frequent and intense drought periods. Diseases and Pathogens: Pro-
jected increases in temperature and precipitation in some seasons may contribute to an increase or prolonged transmission cycle of certain diseases and the ranges of disease-causing agents, such as mosquitoes, ticks, rodents and fungi. Wildfires: The area burned in BC was declining since the early part of the 20th century, but started to rise again in the last two decades, as has the length of the wildfire season. Projected increases in summer temperatures, very hot days, longer warm spells, reduced summer precipitation, fuel accumulation and pest outbreaks may contribute to increased wildfire frequency. By 2100, fire starts in BC have been projected to increase by 21 per cent to 190 per cent, with regional variation. Landslides and Avalanches: Projected increases in winter precipitation, the frequency of extreme rainfall events and wildfire could all contribute to increased landslide frequency in the future. Reduced snowpack could decrease avalanches in some locations, while increases in winter temperatures, rain-on-snow events and increases in freeze/ thaw cycling could increase avalanche frequency in other locations. Biodiversity: The species found in Basin ecosystems today are based largely on climate conditions of the past. As the climate changes, some species will tolerate the new conditions, some may migrate north or up-slope, and others may decline. New and unique combinations of species may occur. Conditions may increasingly favour invasive species, pests, deciduous trees and generalized grasslands. Wetlands and alpine tundra ecosystems may decline, while forest ecosystems may migrate north and up-slope where conditions permit. The upshot is any or all of the above changes could occur over the next decades and communities need to be aware and prepared to deal with them. For instance, the report says, these potential changes should be considered in all long-term decision making by communities. Improving health planning and monitoring for heat waves or poor air quality, improving planning for emergencies and possible evacuations, fire smarting and water conservation are all part of actions communities can take. The full report can be viewed at www.cbt.org/dialoguetoaction and the executive summary at www.cbt.org/dialoguetoactionsummary. There is also a video at www.cbt.org/dialoguetoactionvideo

Goodall to leave legacy Continued from page 3 “She really makes an effort to stay in contact with the Roots and Shoots people,” she said. MacDonald said Roots and Shoots is a good match for CBEEN, which acts as a network for local environmental practitioners. “I’m hoping this is going to spur teachers into environmental action in their classes,” she said. CBEEN already has access to many key players in environmental education in the community, and MacDonald said there are many amazing people and projects already happening in the area that Roots and Shoots can tap into. “This is the first time its really been brought to the public attention,” MacDonald said. Goodall will arrive in Cranbrook on Saturday, and MacDonald said she gets a little bit of rest before launching into a very busy weekend of speaking engagements. While on speaking tours, Goodall continues to work on her many global initiatives. “I don’t think she ever stops,” MacDonald said. Before meeting with students, Goodall will connect with teachers and educators in the Kootenays on Sunday at the St. Eugene Mission to introduce Roots and
Shoots. Carissa MacLennan, co-ordinator of the Jane Goodall Institute’s Canadian Roots and Shoots branch will be there to explain the program. CBEEN’s annual Voices of Sustainability Conference, which starts Friday will also feature Goodall after she arrives in the Rockies. Tickets have already sold out for Goodall’s Reasons for Hope presentation at the Key City Theatre on Sunday evening and the wine and cheese reception.

down to Idaho were at their first ever show. Setzer said it’s taken months of preparation. One horse named Mike began training in January to be ready for the September event. Training includes using the horses for farm work around Fort Steele and the top horses are selected for competition. “It takes weeks of hard work to get ready for a show,” Setzer said. “They’re working pretty good now.”
The horses are also fed special supplements year-round to keep them in top form. A collection of youth traveled to Idaho to drive teams this year. Setzer was also joined by Glenda Larson and Dave Cummings in the ladies and seniors classes. In total Fort Steele competed in 12 classes with eight horses including the six-horse hitch. This is the second show of the year the
Clydesdales have attended after traveling to Armstrong, B.C. Earlier this summer. They also participated in the Calgary Stampede doing logging demos and in various local parades. Setzer said the shows and other appearances help promote Fort Steele wherever they travel. “It’s really picking up,” he said. “I believe it’s going to bring people to the park.”

The next day, I went to the NFL official. “I’ve decided to submit my resignation,” I told the league apparatchik. “You’re a replacement official,” he replied. “You are our property until we decide to let you go. Now, Sunday, Cowboys versus Redskins. You’re umpire. Be there early.” But I didn’t go. I fled the U.S. in the dead of night, and am now a fugitive from the NFL. As I got off the bus, back in Canada, a fellow approached me. “I hear you’re interested in sports,” he said. “How do you feel about playing a little replacement NHL hockey?”

A papermaking detective story
On
a visit to the London Science Museum in 1911, Dard Hunter came across a display that would completely change his life. The exhibit showcased papermaking, using a process most people at that time had never seen before. This paper was being made by hand. Hunter was completely captivated by the historic moulds and tools being displayed. From that day on, Dard Hunter dedicated his entire life to papermaking by hand; and in the process solved a thousand-year-old mystery. Born in 1883 and raised in eastern Ohio, Hunter tried his hand at a variety of careers: printer, newspaper artist, bookbinder, stained glass window maker, and even a magician’s aid. But it was the papermaking craft which gripped him so completely that he and his wife built a paper mill outside their home in New York. Hunter then spent every free moment he could travelling to some of the most remote parts of the world, seeking out and documenting ancient methods of making paper. Even then he felt modern progress would soon wipe out all knowledge of the craft. Not only did Hunter return from his trips with new information, but he also came home with hundreds of papermaking tools given to him as gifts. While observing methods in Tonga, he wanted to obtain a mallet used by a village elder for beating bark into pulp. The mallet had been used for generations, and was worn down by decades of use. No amount of money or charm would cause the elder to hand it over. This was not out of sentiment; the tool was so worn out the Tongans were embarrassed by it. They showered Hunter with dozens of newer ones instead.
Hunter wrote 23 books on papermaking. “Old Papermaking” was his first effort, published in 1923. This was followed by “The Literature of Papermaking, 1390 -1800,” “Primitive Papermaking,” and “Papermaking by Hand in America.” And yes, they were all printed on handmade paper. Before all these, Hunter released the book “The Etching of Figures” in 1915. Not MIKE’S only did he hand-mill the BOOKNOTES book’s paper, but he also designed and carved the typeMike face, printed each page and Selby also bound it by hand. “The Etching of Figures” was the world’s first one-man book. Hunter died in 1966 at age 82. By then he had become the world’s most foremost expert on papermaking, and saw his home turn into a museum. It was also during this time that Hunter solved a very old mystery. The mystery began in 764, when Japanese Empress Shotoku ordered the printing of one million prayers. Devastated by civil war and small pox, Empress Shotoku hoped the printing of the prayers would halt the evil spirits that were destroying Japan’s population. Each prayer was printed on a small paper scroll, and stored inside a wooden pagoda. It is easy to overlook the previous sentence, but ‘printed’ is the key word there. The One Million Prayers are the very first time in history text was printed on paper. Astounding as this was, no one really ever thought about how this was done until a full thousand years later in 1797, when a Japanese scholar suggested the prayers were printed from a copperplate block. This set off a scholarly debate, dividing experts between printing from woodblocks, metal blocks (possibly iron) or some sort of moveable type made out of
Dard Hunter porcelain. Knowing of this still unsettled debate, Dard Hunter did what he did best: he tried to reproduce the methods for making the prayers. The paper was the easy part (unbleached hemp fibre), but no matter which method he used, Hunter could not reproduce the printed prayers to his satisfaction. He let the matter rest until 1928, when he was hunting down papermaking methods in Korean wilderness. Here he discovered a cache of centuries-old woodblocks, and one made out of stone. The prayers had been printed using a stone block imported from Korea. (Whichever block was used, this type of printing text was incredibly expensive, and thus never took off until Gutenberg reinvented it 700 years later.) Today, Hunter’s legacy is preserved by his grandson, Dard Hunter III, who prints stationary and greeting cards out of his grandfather’s old house.

NEW YORK - The NFL and the referees’ union have reached a tentative contract agreement, ending an impasse that began in June when the league locked out the officials and used replacements instead. The NFL said it planned to have regular refs work Thursday night’s Cleveland-Baltimore game. With Commissioner Roger Goodell at the table, the sides concluded two days of talks at midnight Thursday with the announcement of a tentative eight-year deal, which must be ratified by the union’s 121 members. NFL spokesman Greg Aiello tweeted
PENNY BLITZ and

“Pleased to report that an agreement has been reached with the NFL Referees Association. Details to follow.” The replacements worked the first three weeks of games, triggering a wave of frustration that threatened to disrupt the rest of the season. After a missed call cost the Green Bay Packers a win on a chaotic final play at Seattle on Monday night, the two sides really got serious. It was not certain who would work this week’s games, but ESPN reported regular refs will work Thursday night with Baltimore hosting Cleveland. The union was seeking improved salaries, retirement benefits and other logistical issues for the parttime officials. The NFL has proposed a pension freeze and a higher 401(k) match, and it wants to hire 21 more officials to improve the quality of officiating. The union has fought that, fearing it could lead to a loss of jobs for some of the current officials, as well as a reduction in overall compensation. The NFL claimed its offers have included annual pay increases that could earn an experienced official more than US$200,000
annually by 2018. The NFLRA has disputed the value of the proposal, insisting it means an overall reduction in compensation. Replacement refs aren’t new to the NFL. They worked the first week of games in 2001 before a deal was reached. But those officials came from the highest level of college football; the current replacements do not. Their ability to call fast-moving NFL games drew mounting criticism through Week 3, climaxing last weekend, when ESPN analyst Jon Gruden called their work “tragic and comical.” Those comments came during “Monday Night Football,” with Seattle beating Green Bay 14-12 on a desperation pass into the end zone on the final play. Packers safety M.D. Jennings had both hands on the ball in the end zone, and when he fell to the ground in a scrum, both Jennings and Seahawks receiver Golden Tate had their arms on the ball. The closest official to the play, at the back of the end zone, signalled for the clock to stop, while another official at the sideline ran in and then signalled touchdown.

Members of the men’s College of the Rockies Avalanche volleyball team sharpen up in practice for the upcoming Rumble in the Rockies tournament.
College hosting volleyball tourney TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor
The College of the Rockies gymnasium will be chock-full of volleyball action over the weekend, as teams from Alberta and the B.C. Interior converge on Cranbrook for the annual Rumble in the Rockies tournament. This will be the second weekend in a row of exhibition action for the women’s team, which recently returned from a tournament in Red Deer, while the men’s team will see some games on the court for the first time this preseason. The event will include two CIS teams on the mens side, with the University of Calgary Dinos featuring two former Avalanche players in Jeremias
Guenter and Brendan Visser, who will line up against their old squad. “They’re excited to play, it’s been going pretty slow and just making sure we have a foundation of basic skills and all that and making sure everyone is doing things correctly,” said men’s head coach Steve Kamps. “We’ve slowly built up towards getting six guys on the floor and now we have a chance for some exhibition.” Similarly on the women’s side, head coach Agata Bendkowska is looking forward to seeing her girls get some more gametime experience as her team includes quite a few new faces on the roster this year. She had the team practicing as early as the middle of August to
prepare for the new Pacwest season before their first exhibition play in Red Deer last weekend. “Now I know what we need to work on,” Bendkowska said. “We have 14 girls this year and it’s a different team from last year. We have some height this year, we have three dif-
ferent setters, we have girls who can play a bunch of different positions.” Both teams have finalized their rosters; the men’s team features a player from Cranbrook and Creston, while the girls team features three Mount Baker Secondary School graduates.

Women’s hockey league looking for players TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor
The fifth season of the Cranbrook women’s recreational hockey league is set to get underway in October, and organizers are putting out the call for any women over 18 to sign up, regardless of skill level. Games are during weekend evenings in Cranbrook and the emphasis is on developing a love for the game while
creating new friendships, as players come in from areas like Jaffray, Kimberley and Skookumchuck. When the league started, there was a vision to provide the opportunity for women to get together and have a fun evening of hockey. A lot of players are hockey moms of hockey-playing kids who’ve spent years watching the game, but have never had a chance to
try out the sport. Other players include women who went through minor hockey when they were teenagers, but are now in college, or returning from a post-secondary education from out of the region. There are motherdaughter lines out on the ice, while teams also feature a couple grandmothers. The skill level varies, but emphasis on sports-
manship means that beginners enjoy their first on-ice sessions. Referees are supplied by the league, but games are run in a low-key manner and any penalties called are dealt through penalty shots so that play resumes quickly. Anyone interested in getting involved with the women’s-only hockey league can contact Jean Terpsma at gterpsma@gmail.com or at 250-427-3182.

American Hockey League training camps flooded with top young talent Bill Beacon Canadian Press
MONTREAL - Gifted young players like Jeff Skinner and Ryan Nugent-Hopkins will report to training camp this week, but it will be in the American Hockey League and not the locked-out NHL. Most of the 30 teams in North America’s top minor league will start with physical testing either Thursday or Friday before beginning on-ice workouts to get ready for what could be a wild season in the AHL. The regular season opens Oct. 12. The last NHL lockout in 2004-05 saw some youngsters like Jason Spezza, Michael Cammalleri and Eric Staal sent back to the AHL for the season, but that was a trickle compared to the flood of talent this time around. Jordan Eberle, Adam Henrique, Adam Larsson, Sean Couturier, Brayden Schenn, Jake Gardiner, Alex Burmistrov and Slava Voynov are among players already established, at least to some degree, in the NHL who have been assigned to AHL clubs. Top prospects who likely would have started the season in the NHL but will instead play in the second-tier league include Ryan Johansen,
Sven Baertschi, Cody Hodgson, Oliver EkmanLarsson, Zack Kassian, Nino Niederreiter, Nazem Kadri, Brett Connolly, Louis Leblanc and Ryan Ellis. Depending on how long the NHL lockout lasts, it could be a spectacular season for the 77-year-old AHL, which had a big boost in attendance during the last NHL lockout. ”I look at the names on some of the rosters and this has to be the best crop of players the league has ever seen,” said Julien BriseBois, general manager of Syracuse Crunch, the Tampa Bay Lightning’s top farm club. ”We’re excited to see how much the level goes up and which teams take best advantage of the players that have fallen into their laps.” The big winner should be the Edmonton Oilers’ affiliate, the Oklahoma City Barons, where coach Todd Nelson will have Nugent-Hopkins, Eberle and top U.S. college free agent Justin Schultz join a club already well-stocked with skilled skaters, including speedy Magnus Paajarvi. Nelson said adding three top talents to his 16 returning players should make for a very competitive team. It could have been four if 2010 first
overall draft pick Taylor Hall was not exempted due to injury. ”We felt we had a strong team going in,” Nelson said. ”With the addition of these three high-level players, it’s exciting.” The puzzle for all AHL coaches and managers is that they have no idea how long they will have their best players. The lock-out could end at any time and the Skinners
Yakupov suspended from KHL, pending investigation into his transfer C anadian Press
A wrench has been thrown into Nail Yakupov’s plans for the NHL lockout. The 18-year-old forward was suspended from the Russian-based KHL on Tuesday after a dispute over his transfer to Nizhnekamsk Neftekhimik. According to the International Ice Hockey Federation, Yakupov played illegally when he appeared in two games for his hometown team earlier this month because he failed to secure a transfer card. “Playing without an approved (transfer card) following an international transfer request is a breach of IIHF transfer
Blue Jays give up 7 home runs, Orioles romp 12-2 Associated Press
BALTIMORE - The Toronto Blue Jays twice bruised Baltimore. In their final game of the series, the Orioles broke loose. Chris Davis and Manny Machado each connected twice and the Orioles tied a team record with seven home runs, routing Toronto 12-2 Wednesday night and staying within 1 1/2 games of the AL East lead. The Orioles split the four-game set and remained close to the division-leading New York Yankees, who won 8-2 in Minnesota. Now, Baltimore will be rooting for Toronto. The Blue Jays open a four-game series at
home with the Yankees on Thursday. “The four games that start (Thursday) and through the weekend are going to have an effect on the outcome of this division and certainly on the playoff picture,” Toronto manager John Farrell said. “We’re hopeful to put forth the effort we put forth in this series. We swung the bats much better in this four-game series than we did on the previous two series on this trip. And we’re going to need that kind of production offensively.” The Blue Jays split a Monday doubleheader with the Orioles and won on Tuesday night.
and Eberles will then go back to the NHL. ”It’s the AHL, so it’s like that anyway,” Nelson said. ”Guys get called up during the season and it’s not that much different. ”Once the lockout ends, those three and probably two or three others will go up. The last couple of years, Edmonton had a lot of injuries and our team changed quite a bit.”
regulations,” spokesman Szymon Szemberg said in a statement. The Russian federation was fined 5,000 Swiss francs (C$5,200) for the infraction and would face much stiffer sanctions if it allowed Yakupov to continue playing in the KHL. It has until Oct. 1 to form a response on the matter. Yakupov’s transfer card went unsigned by Hockey Canada because that organization believes the player’s rights belong to the Ontario Hockey League’s Sarnia Sting, where he spent the last two seasons. The Edmonton Oilers, who drafted Yakupov first overall earlier this year, assigned him to the junior club on Sept. 15.

NFL coaches slapped with big fines Associated Press
NEW YORK - The NFL fined Patriots coach Bill Belichick $50,000 and Redskins assistant Kyle Shanahan $25,000 for their conduct toward replacement officials. The fines announced Wednesday come as the league and its referees’ union are meeting amid
reports they are close to ending the lockout of the regular officials. Belichick grabbed an official’s arm at the end of Sunday night’s game after the Ravens kicked a winning field goal. Shanahan was cited by the league for “abuse of officials” in Washington’s loss to Cincinnati. “Whatever the
league decides to do, I’ll respect and just try and do my job,” Belichick said before his fine was announced. On Monday, the league fined Broncos coach John Fox $30,000 and defensive co-ordinator Jack Del Rio $25,000 for berating officials during a loss to Atlanta on Sept. 17.

NEWS
Justin Trudeau could seek Liberal leadership C anadian Press
OTTAWA — Justin Trudeau’s star power was on display Wednesday as reports of his imminent entry into the Liberal leadership race sparked a media frenzy on Parliament Hill. A phalanx of television cameras and outstretched microphones besieged Liberals outside their usually quiet weekly caucus meeting, a testament to the 40-year-old Montreal MP’s celebrity status and magnetic ability to attract attention. “Thank you very much for your interest,’’ a smiling Trudeau said on his way out of the meeting, coyly refusing to confirm or deny reports that he’ll announce his bid Tuesday in his Papineau riding. “I’m pleased to hear all the buzz and all the interest in the Liberal party’s fortunes. But I have nothing further today ... I promise I will let you know when I have something to announce.’’ Trudeau’s crowdpleasing celebrity is his most appealing quality for many Liberals, who are desperate to avoid sinking into oblivion after being reduced to a third-party rump in the 2011 election. It’s already made him the prohibitive front-runner in a leadership race that hasn’t yet officially begun and won’t culminate until April 14. However, others are waiting to see if there’s more to Trudeau than a pretty face with boyish charm, an engaging manner and a famous last name. They want to see if he can demonstrate the depth, vision and strategic smarts to bring the once-mighty Liberal party back from the brink of extinction and, eventually one day, back into power. Those close to Trudeau are well aware that he must disprove critics who maintain he’s an intellectual lightweight coasting on the coattails of his late father, Liberal icon and former prime minister Pierre Trudeau. His organizers argue Trudeau’s intellect is under-estimated, not-
MP Justin Trudeau
ing that he has obtained two university degrees: a Bachelor of Arts and a Bachelor of Education. And they maintain he’s already demonstrated strategic smarts by insisting on climbing the political ladder the hard way, from the bottom up. He turned down
an opportunity to run in a safe Liberal riding in 2007, choosing instead to run in a contested nomination in Papineau, a riding held at the time by the Bloc Quebecois. As for critics who question whether Trudeau has the gravi-
tas or depth to be prime minister, his strategists maintain that’s not the job description. What Liberals are choosing, they say, is a leader of a third party and the most important qualification is the ability to engage Canadians and attract new blood.

PUBLIC NOTICE
1
The Union of British Columbia Municipalities (UBCM) is an organization that has represented the interests of local governments in BC since 1905. The UBCM was formed to provide a common voice for local government and the annual convention continues to be the main forum for UBCM policy-making. It provides an opportunity for local governments of all sizes and from all areas of the province to come together, share their experiences and take a united position.
2
The Annual UBCM convention takes place this week, Sept. 24 – 28 in Victoria. Local governments from across the East Kootenay will have the opportunity to present their community’s highest priorities. As Minister responsible for Communities, I will have 64 meetings with local governments and deliver 10 speeches.
3
It will be a good, honest discussion with local government. Municipalities will quite understandably argue they need more money for roads, sewers, water and transit and I will be raising the issue of local government generally trying to keep their expenses down the way the province does.
Notice is hereby given that the Municipal Council of the City of Kimberley, pursuant to Section 226 of the Community Charter, may, by bylaw, adopt a revitalization tax exemption program. Council wishes to establish a revitalization tax exemption program by adopting the “Kimberley Investment Incentive Program Bylaw No. 2454, 2012” to encourage commercial and industrial investment to achieve a range of economic, social and environmental objectives. The program allows for the granting of tax exemption, in accordance with the requirements of the Bylaw, to encourage investment in the designated investment incentive areas in support of the following objectives: • To enhance visual appeal and vitality; support business growth and to expand employment opportunities; and • To improve environmental condition of brownfield sites and to increase the supply of developmentready lands available to support growth in the local economy. The program is intended to achieve the objectives by providing relief from 100% of the incremental increase in municipal property taxes resulting from the increased property values after a commercial or industrial project is completed or by providing relief from 50% of the municipal property taxes while a project involving environmental investigation or remediation activity is in progress. The total tax exemption must not exceed the total cost of the project. The following types of projects may be eligible under the program: • New construction, or alterations to an existing building, resulting in a net increase of floor area, with a construction value of at least $50,000; • Exterior improvements to an existing building involving all facades visible from a public street, road, lane, sidewalk or parking lot and subject to a development permit; or • A project involving work to investigate or remediate the environmental condition of a parcel with a project value of at least $10,000. The maximum term of annual tax exemption for a qualifying project is: • A three year term for a project in a designated investment incentive area assessed as Class 6 – Business and Other land and improvements; • A five year term for a project in a designated investment incentive area assessed as Class 4 – Major Industry or Class 5 – Light Industry land and improvements; or • A three year term for a project, in a designated investment incentive area, involving environmental investigation or remediation activity. An owner of a parcel that wishes to qualify for a tax exemption must submit an application in accordance with the requirements set out in the bylaw. The revitalization tax exemption program will apply to properties in the designated investment incentive areas shown in Schedules “A” and “B” attached to the bylaw. A copy of the proposed “Kimberley Investment Incentive Program Bylaw No. 2454, 2012” and supporting documentation may be inspected at City Hall, 340 Spokane Street, Kimberley, BC, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday, excluding holidays, up until Wednesday, October 3, 2012. For more information, please visit the City’s website at www.kimberley.ca or contact Planning Services at City Hall, 250-427-5311 or planning@kimberley.ca. Dated September 19, 2012 G.

Summary of Initiative: The initiative draft Bill entitled, “Sensible Policing Act” proposes to amend the Police Act to no longer use provincial police resources on the enforcement of current laws in relation to simple possession and use of cannabis by adults. The draft law would prohibit the use of provincial police resources for this purpose, would require police to report in detail to the Minister of Justice any actual use of resources for this purpose and why it was necessary, and require the Minister to publish that report. The Bill also proposes that the Province would call upon the Federal Government to repeal the federal prohibition on cannabis, or give British Columbia an exemption, such that British Columbia is able to tax and regulate cannabis similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. As well it proposes that British Columbia shall establish a Provincial Commission to study the means and requirements necessary for the province to establish a legal and regulated model for the production and use of cannabis by adults. Last, the Bill would make nonlawful possession and use of cannabis by minors an offence similar to possession and use of alcohol.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your intuition directs you as to which way to go, though you could feel stuck between a rock and a hard place. You see the potential for change, but you need a boss or supervisor to go along with you. You might opt not to share everything you are thinking. Tonight: Not to be found. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A friend seems to zero in on an issue, which helps you to verbalize and express your thoughts. A partner cares, but he or she initially might show it as hostility. Get past this person’s behavior. Detach, and you will see more. Tonight: Where your friends are. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You are on top of your game, and you understand what makes an associate function in the way that he or she does. Open up to a talk, and share more of what you think is needed. Be aware of what others suggest as well. Tonight: A must appearance. CANCER (June 21-July 22)
Detach before making a final decision. You intuitively want to know more of what could make a situation work. By stepping back, you will gain greater insight for how to proceed. Evaluate what is needed at the moment. Tonight: Your feelings need to lead the way. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Recheck any agreements that could impact your finances. You have very high ideals, and you want to satisfy them. Sometimes double-checking is important in ensuring that everything is proceeding as you’d like. Be willing to flow with a change in plans or a call that takes too long. Tonight: Deal with a family member directly. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Defer to someone who really wants to call the shots and make the decisions. You might not agree with this person, but you need to witness the end results of his or her actions. A child or loved one interjects a delightful element into your day. Tonight: Make calls and figure out weekend plans. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You deal with others directly and
For Better or Worse
with self-confidence. You know what your expectations are, and, for the most part, you share them with those involved. You could get into a heated conversation at first, but let it go -- don’t let it mar your interaction. Tonight: Off to the gym. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your sense of direction calls for some quick decisions. Your ability to see beyond an issue and understand the consequences of certain actions allows you to make the right move. Deal with a passionate individual directly; remember that this person cares. Tonight: Choose something fun. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Think through a problem with key players. What you see happening is OK, even if on some level you don’t buy someone else’s version of the story. Nevertheless, you plan on making an important change because you see the wisdom of making it. Tonight: Happy to be home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Keep conversations moving. You have an intuitive sense of what you want to hear. Do not let frustration
build, and realize that you have no control over others. Stay upbeat. A conversation opens up a situation. Tonight: Visit with a friend over a drink and munchies. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might not understand the financial implications of what you are seeing. Someone might be more deceptive than you think. If you are unsure, say little and avoid making any commitments. A boss or higher-up tests your patience. Tonight: Think “budget.” PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might want to understand what is going on with someone at a distance. You could be unusually aggravated with a loved one, but let these feelings pass. A friend encourages you to go along with his or her idea. Say “yes.” Tonight: Beam in what you want.

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am 38 and have been with my husband for 18 years. We have built a wonderful life with great kids, but circumstances led to a separation. I was the one who wanted it. My husband is a good guy, but he just hasn’t been able to give me the love I want. Something is always more important. He now says he’s willing to do anything to make this marriage work. But he’s promised that before, and after a short time, I am on the back burner again. A few months ago, I ran into a man I hadn’t seen in years. He is divorced. One thing led to another, and, well, you can figure it out. Now, I have two really great guys in my life, and I want them both. My husband is a stable, sensible, great father. My guy friend is fun, sweet and the best lover I have ever had. I know I am being selfish, and I feel guilty, but apparently not guilty enough to make a choice between them. How do I decide? -Used To Be Sensible in Milwaukee Dear Milwaukee: There are children involved in this mess, and you should think of them. Ideally, you and your husband would work on this together and make your marriage stronger. It requires that you both get back into counseling, that he sticks to the plan and that you give up your boyfriend. If you are not ready to do that, please get a legal separation from your husband and put a custody and visitation plan into effect while you sort this out. Don’t wait too long. Your husband may decide he is entitled to look elsewhere for happiness, too. Dear Annie: I was recently invited to a small, informal engagement party. The invitation said, “No gifts, please,” so I followed that. But when I arrived, there was a table with quite a few cards, a bottle of wine and other small boxes. My uncle is getting married soon for the second time. He is having the ceremony and a dinner at a local restaurant. His invitation also says, “No gifts, please, only best wishes.” My sister says we must get him a gift, or we are being cheap, no matter what the invitation says. But I would think people would be miffed if they received presents they specifically said they didn’t want. I don’t want to make the same mistake again. Is a card not enough? -- Not Sure Dear Not Sure: When someone requests “no gifts,” that is exactly what it means. People who bring presents anyway are insecure about the request and feel they must buy something regardless. Of course, etiquette also says “no gifts” does not belong on an invitation because it implies that gifts are otherwise expected. If you insist on giving a present, we suggest a donation to their favorite charity in honor of their nuptials. Dear Annie: The letter from “The Drunk’s Wife” brought back some memories. My husband hangs out at a local bar with his buddies. One evening, when it was well past the time he usually comes home, I went to the garage to see whether he had driven the golf cart home yet. I found him lying between the wall and the cart. He had been trying to recharge the cart, but was so drunk he fell and passed out. Once I got him into bed, I called the bar and told them if it happened again, I would call the police, and they could lose their liquor license. I said I was not only protecting my husband and those he encountered on the road, but also the bar business. The next day when he was sober, I told him what I did. He was angry, but he needed to know how many people would be affected by his drunk driving. Fortunately, the bartender now watches and limits his drinks, and my husband is more careful because he knows I’ll report him to the police. It’s because I love him. -- A Caring Wife Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Canadian delegation walks out as Iran’s Ahmadinejad takes to podium at UN Lee-Anne Goodman Canadian Press
NEW YORK, N.Y. — Canadian diplomats walked out Wednesday as Mahmoud Ahmadinejad subjected the United Nations to more of his trademark political vitriol, but the Iranian president brushed off Canada’s anti-Iran bent even as Tehran warned its citizens to avoid the country for fear of rampant “Iranophobia.’’ It wasn’t the first time the Canadian delegation has walked out on Ahmadinejad — they did it last year and in 2009 at the United Nations annual gathering of world leaders. But tensions are running higher than ever between the two countries after Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird shuttered Canada’s embassy in Iran three weeks ago. “We will not sit silently in our chairs and listen to Iran’s hateful, anti-Western, anti-Semitic views,’’ Baird’s press secretary, Rick Roth, said in a statement. “If anything, today’s address only reinforces our decision earlier this month to suspend diplomatic relations with Iran.’’ Ahmadinejad was dismissive of Canada in a news conference following his speech to the UN. “Any country is free to have or to not have relations with other countries,’’ he said. “I fundamentally don’t see this as a very important issue. Of course we did not have a substantial economic relationship with Canada.’’ Ahmadinejad didn’t mention Canada by name during his speech to the United Nations General Assembly, but a statement posted Wednesday by the Islamic Republic News Agency, Iran’s official news
agency, was making headlines all the same. The statement, attributed to Iran’s Foreign Ministry, warned Iranian citizens against travelling to Canada, citing “Islamophobia,’’ “Iranophobia’’ and a “double standard’’ in Canada towards human rights. On Sept. 7, Baird abruptly announced that Canada had shut down its embassy in Tehran and ordered personnel at the Iranian embassy in Ottawa to get out of the country within five days. “There have been cases of arrest and expulsion of Iranian expatriates under various pretexts and Iranians are deprived of their basic rights to continue with their ordinary activities, including the right to access their banking accounts and do ordinary transactions,’’ the Foreign Ministry statement said. Baird was unequivocal in his scorn for the statement. “I think it’s absolutely ridiculous, and I think 99 per cent of Canadians would share that view.’’ In the past, Ahmadinejad has used the UN spotlight to attack Israel, cast doubt on the Holocaust and question American accounts of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. There were suggestions of the same in Wednesday’s speech, but in his final address to the UN, Ahmadinejad also took on a loftier tone as he described a new world order. In what sounded like a sermon at times, Ahmadinejad envisioned a world that lacks the “hegemony of arrogance,’’ citing what he called the “continued threat by the uncivilized Zionists to resort to military

He made no reference to Iran’s nuclear program. The United States, Israel, Canada and others fear that program is little more than a pretence for building a nuclear weapon for use against the Israelis. Iran, however, insists its a peaceful program. The country has been subjected to tough sanctions for its refusal to co-operate with the UN’s nuclear watchdog agency; the UN has asked for proof that its intentions are peaceful as Iranians enrich uranium to levels that would allow them to build a nuclear
bomb. Israel has been pounding the drum beat of war against Iran for months. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been criticized for attempting to pressure the U.S. into joining Israel in launching a military strike. U.S. President Barack Obama, who addressed the UN himself earlier this week in a forceful rebuke of the recent anti-American violence in the Middle East, says the dispute can still be resolved through diplomacy. But he’s also pledged to prevent Iran from building a bomb. Ahmadinejad assailed both the United States and Israel in his speech, accusing Americans of protecting a nuclear-armed “fake regime.’’ That shot at Israel prompted the country’s UN ambassador to walk out.
Chunk of the moon to be auctioned off Associated Press
NEW YORK – A New York City auction will offer 125 meteorites for sale, including a large chunk of the moon and a 179-pound (81-kilogram) iron cosmic rock that evokes Edvard Munch’s iconic painting “The Scream.’’ The sale, one of the largest of its kind, is being held by the Dallasbased Heritage Auctions on Oct. 14. The sale also includes a large piece of the Peekskill meteorite, famous for puncturing a Chevy Malibu in 1992 about 50 miles north of Manhattan, and the largest complete slice of the most famous meteorite in the world, the Willamette, a huge specimen that is housed at the American Museum of Natural History in New York. The moon rock has the highest pre-sale estimate of $340,000 to $380,000; less than 0.1 per cent of all meteorites recovered are lunar in origin. The 46-centimetre-tall meteorite, dubbed “The Scream,’’ is estimated at $175,000 to $225,000. Three of the concave hallows are
evocative of Munch’s image of a man holding his head and screaming under a streaked sky. It is classified a Gibeon and was discovered in the Kalahari Desert in southern Africa. Specimens from the collection are found at the natural history museums in London, New York and Paris and The Smithsonian in Washington, D.C., among others. The cover lot in the sale is of an iron meteorite with naturally formed holes that resemble a mask. The catalogue says it is “arguably the most exotically esthetic’’ and was discovered by indigenous tribesmen in Namibia with a metal detector. It is estimated to bring $140,000 to $180,000. The Peekskill piece has a presale estimate of $47,500 to $55,000. There are others that have lower estimates but come with interesting stories, like a small portion of a meteorite estimated at about $4,000 that fell from the sky in 1492. It was later chained up in a church so it couldn’t fly back into orbit.
The Iranian leader spoke despite the concerted efforts of some, including Liberal MP Irwin Cotler, to convince UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon to pull the plug on his participation. “Allowing President Ahmadinejad to address the UN General Assembly is a cruel parody of law and justice that will put us on the wrong side of history,’’ Cotler wrote in a recent letter to the secretary general and U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. The letter cited Ahmadinejad for human rights violations, pursuit of nuclear weapons in defiance of the UN and incitement to genocide. Cotler said the UN should be indicting Ahmadinejad, not inviting him to the podium. Canada isn’t alone in its outrage about Ahmadinejad. Thousands of protesters streamed into a plaza near the United Nations complex in mid-town Manhattan on Wednesday as the Iranian leader addressed the annual gathering. Former New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani and Newt Gingrich, the one-time Republican presidential hopeful, made appearances at the protest. Syrians were also on hand to denounce Iran’s support of Syrian President Bashar Assad’s bloody crackdown against his opponents. Prime Minister Stephen Harper has decided once again not to speak to the opening of the assembly’s fall session. The UN has met seven times since Harper was elected prime minister; he’s addressed the General Assembly only twice. In his place, Baird will speak at the UN on Monday.
Farmers warn of bacon shortage Canadian Press
AP Photo/Heritage Auctions
This undated photo provided by Heritage Auctions shows a large chunk of the moon, which will be offered at a sale in New York of more than 125 meteorites on Oct. 14, 2012.
LONDON — A British farming organization is predicting a worldwide shortage of bacon and pork next year. The National Pig Association says global drought conditions are driving up the price of grain, a major staple in hog feed. It says pig farmers around the world are selling their herds because retail prices are not rising fast enough to cover the cost of record-high pig-feed costs. In the United States, the government has introduced a pork-buying program in a bid to keep its pig farmers in business. And the Chinese government is putting pork into cold storage, as a buffer against shortages and high prices next year. Iowa-based agricultural economist Steve Meyer says he expects to see record prices for pork next year. He says high grain prices affect all meat suppliers, meaning beef, chicken and turkey supplies could also be affected.
