2013 a prime season for boating
An early spring runoff means Koocanusa will be close to full by the end of June and stay that way into September S A LLY MAC D ONAL D Townsman Staff
Good news for boaters: the water level in Koocanusa reservoir will be within 10 feet of full by the end of June and stay in that range until September. An early peak runoff
from snow pack into the Kootenay River means Koocanusa is already 10 feet higher than it was this time last year, according to experts at the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which operates Libby Dam downstream of Koocanusa.
Popular with recreational boaters, Koocanusa feeds the Kootenay River into the Libby Dam in Montana. The dam controls flood risk downstream on the Kootenay River as it passes through Bonners Ferry, Idaho and into
the West Kootenay. Koocanusa reservoir will probably reach an elevation of 2,450 feet by the end of June. The reservoir is considered full at 2,459 feet. By the end of July, the levels will reach around 2,453 feet, and
stay in that range until the end of September, when releases from Libby Dam will be increased to bring Koocanusa down to 2,449 feet by September 30. “It looks like we will have these elevations at the end of June instead

If you see a drunk driver, call 911. According to Mothers Against Drunk Drivers Kimbrook community leader Katryna Sigurdson, it’s a common misconception that the emergency number should not be used to report the sighting of a suspected drunk driver. But she said should be. “If you’re driving down the road and see someone that you suspect is impaired, we ask people to pull over, call 911 and give us the best description of the vehi-
cle, license plate,” she said Monday at Cranbrook City Council. Sigurdson was looking for council support for the Report Impaired Drivers program MADD is currently doing. She said the program is a low-cost community program and is effective at taking impaired drivers off the road. “I can tell you that last year in Kimberley, we took nine people off the road by calling 911,” she said.

Deer hazing trial a success: What now? C AROLYN GR ANT Daily Bulletin
The City of Kimberley and the Urban Deer Committee believe that they have successfully demonstrated that using dogs to haze deer and train them to stay out of town is a viable tool in an urban deer management plan. The question is, what happens now? That’s up to the provincial government, says Mayor Ron McRae.
“I think we’ve demonstrated that it has good possibilities,” he said. “Obviously, it is yet to be seen whether the government will act. But the fact that they did grant the demo — that gives some indication that they may look at shifting some legislation to allow for other possibilities. I just don’t think people will tolerate the use of a cull as a deer management tool.” It’s not just Kimberley seeking other ways to man-
age urban deer. Cranbrook has recently put forward a resolution which says that current regulations don’t address human-wildlife conflicts in urban areas and lacks the flexibility needed to develop new approaches. McRae says he fully expects to hear from other communities now that a trial hazing has taken place. “We had a videographer film the trial and he will do up a package, which we will
distribute to any municipality that would like to see it. We also have to do a report for the government and we would share that as well. “We do want to share all the good work that has been done in Kimberley by the Deer Committee. Kimberley has invested significant resources in this. It’s important to share that with anyone who is interested.” If aversive conditioning is allowed by a legislation
change, it wouldn’t begin until next spring, leaving plenty of time for the provincial government to act. McRae said that now that the election is over, government will one again turn it’s attention to issues like this. “Everything stands down for the election, but now it’s back to business.” An aversive conditioning program wouldn’t be inexpensive. “If we were to employ a
technique like hazing, you would need a four to five week period in a specific area to condition deer that they are better off out of town. You’d be looking at roughly $300 to $350 per day if not more, for the use of the dogs. Having said that, for me I feel the money would be well spent. None of us want to remove deer by culling. Right now though, it’s the only mechanism available.”
City Council kicks Portraits of beloved in for dancing, oldtimers find new homes robotics and art
Almost 30 paintings of late Cranbrook residents given to family members and loved ones
A rn e Pe tryshen Townsman Staff
The use of fees for groups using Rotary Park and Spirit Square was up for discussion during Monday night’s city council meeting, though council took the middle ground. The discussion began after Cranbrook Dance Connection requested assistance by way of waiving the fee and a grant to help pay performers. Randy Tapp, from Cranbrook Dance Connection said he wishes to continue to provide a way for residents and tourists to recreate. Tapp also requested a $200-per-evening grant to give musicians, as he said that while it offers them some exposure, it does cover them. The request for contributions, along with a number of others in the night’s meeting, caused council to debate the merits of having fees. Coun. Gerry Warner, wondered what the point of having fees was when council seems to waive the fee for almost any group that asks. “I just look through here tonight and we have seven requests for donations or waiving of the fees,” he said, noting the Spirit Square Concert Series, the arts council, Cranbrook Dance Connection and the Mount Baker Robotics Club. “This waiving of the fees for the park, is seems we wave it for anyone who
asks, then why do we have the fee?” Warner thought there should be a more organized way of dealing with the requests, as opposed to dealing with them as they come in. Mayor Wayne Stetski said he thought of that as well, and noted that having groups come to council to ask allows for some discretion to say yes or no to the requests. No councillor was against contributing to what council agreed were worthy causes and the dance night met the bill, as it brings people to the park and livens up the city. Council ended up deciding to contribute $100 per performance, for a total of $430. Coun. Diana J. Scott said that is exactly what she was thinking. “It’s very difficult to sit up here, because everything that comes before us is a great idea and of course we want to support everything,” Scott said. “It’s hard to say no sometimes so I think this is a good happy medium.” Coun. Bob Whetham said bringing in life to the park is exactly what they want to do. Council also decided to contribute $300 to the Mount Baker Robotics Club for their trip to nationals in Vancouver, as well as the Spirit Square fees for the Art in The Park event in August.

There were broad smiles, reunions with old acquaintances and the odd tear as family members of former residents of the Dr. F.W. Green Home gathered on Wednesday, May 29. The group had come together to collect portraits of their loved ones that used to line the halls of the home, painted by former resident and prolific painter Adolphus “Duffy” Burton. During the 1990s, Duffy painted dozens of portraits of his fellow residents at the aged care facility. Until a few years ago, those portraits were on display for everyone to see, but they were taken down during a remodel in 2010. Having lost touch with the relatives who used to visit those oldtimers in the home, recreation coordinator Mari Thomas and Laird Siemens, chair of the family council, called The Townsman for help getting the word out that family members could claim the beautifully painted portraits. Now, almost 30 of the portraits have new homes with family members delighted to see the likeness of their loved one. Many people saw the article with a list of names in the Townsman, but many more were contacted by local historian Dave Humphrey. He spent hours trawling through old newspapers, birth and death records and managed to contact about 20 families of people in the portraits. On Wednesday, some of those descendants came from as far as Elko and Invermere to gather in a sunlit room at the Green Home to collect the por-

Carol Canning came from Skookumchuck to pick up a portrait of her grandmother Maude Goodwin. “I remember that coat!” Carol exclaimed, looking at the colourful, floral jacket Maude wears in the portrait. Carol got a phone call from Dave Humphrey telling her that the portrait was there if she wanted it. Coincidentally, the Goodwin family will celebrate a reunion at Wasa this August, and Carol plans to show it to some of Maude’s 11 children and 49
grandchildren who will be gathered there. “The portrait might get passed around,” Carol said. “It’s nice that somebody did this,” she went on. “We keep pictures of her in the house all the time.” Ken Pearson clutched a coffee cup the mirror image of the one his father Seth clutched in the portrait Duffy painted as he looked over the portraits. “I can look at a lot of these pictures and remember a lot of people,” Ken said. His father spent six years living at the Green Home before he passed away at age 98.
“It’s so like him, it’s unbelievable,” Ken said, looking at Seth’s portrait. “(Duffy) did such a wonderful job.” Cranbrook resident Rhonda Brass came to take home a portrait of her dear friend Betty Scott. The two met at the college when Betty was already late in years, and began to meet over tea to talk about religion, sociology and philosophy because Betty wanted to keep her mind fresh, said Brass. “She was a great lover of nature, and especially the Rockies,” said Brass, looking at the portrait of Betty with the mountains as a backdrop. In fact, Betty was the sister of Dr. Green himself, Brass said. “She shared stories about Dr. Green. Her brother was a very good doctor. He did the best he could for people, and he was available day and night.” Now the portrait will have pride of place in Brass’s home. “Thank you to the late Duffy Burton for doing these beautiful portraits. He was very talented. And thank you to the Green Home for letting us have them.” she said. Thirteen portraits remain unclaimed: Ann Barkovich, Bernard Chevous, John Demant, Louise Gierl, Tillie Hewson, Mary Jones, Lucy Konkin, Waldren McLean, Sheila Mines, Loretta Molloy, John Ozeroff, Mabel Smith, and Sadie Thorlanson. To lay claim to one of those portraits, please contact Mari Thomas at the Green Home at 250-420-2451. In the meantime, six of the remaining portraits will be on display in June at the Cranbrook and District Arts Council for its Bygone Era exhibit.

Long-Rider takes on TransCanada Trail
Joe Guy, adventurous horse-back traveler, is taking on the Kootenay area expecting to face black bears, white-outs and deep snow K ait y Brown Townsman Staff
S
leeping under the stars with rattle snakes slithering around and facing bears around almost every corner are just a couple of challenges that Joe Guy overcomes on a day-to-day basis. The long-rider has travelled some of the most treacherous terrains and trails around the world and now he is passing Kimberley while on his next adventure: the TransCanada Highway Trail. “There are not many long-riders left in the world that do what I do. I’ve ridden over 11,000 miles through three countries,” said Guy in an interview. “I’ve ridden across Australia and I’ve ridden across the USA and I’ve done over 1,500 miles so far here in Canada.” But the rider doesn’t have just one faithful steed, unlike any other long-rider, he specifically finds horses that are deemed unbreakable and have no future
due to their violent behaviour. In his attempt to give himself a bigger challenge, on top of the extreme quests, he rehabilitates the horses and turns their future around —something that no other long rider has ever done. “I’ll ride a horse until he is too quiet for me, sell him, buy myself another horse that’s sitting somewhere waiting to be slaughtered or I’ll have a horse given to me that is deemed no good and then I’ll fix it, ride it so far until it’s too quiet and then repeat the process.” Although these horses are not pack-horses, they come with a lot of baggage. Guy is all too familiar with the phrase you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. “My first horse that I took on a trip had never drunk out of a river before. He didn’t know what to do; he’s only ever drunk out of a bucket his whole life. So when he finally worked out to put his head in the river to get a drink he put his head up

Australian long-rider Joe Guy is on a Trans Canada adventure. stream and when he stuck his nose in the water, it just gushed straight up his face and into his ears.” “It scared the wits out of him and then I couldn’t get him to go back for a drink. It took him another few days before he would drink out of a creek.” In his book “Just Another Dream,” about riding from town to town, street performing and busking, Guy paints a picture of his adventures “I grew up in Sydney, Australia and I was born and raised on the wrong side of the tracks. I turned my life around at an early age. At 19, I turned my life around, and I went looking for my purpose in life and now I inspire people with my story.” In the act of traveling the world in a quest to find himself and who he really was, he realized he was meant to be a trail-blazer, and that in
fact, he was one from the very start. “At the end of it all, I realized that I had ridden thousands of miles on horse-back to get to every job I have ever had and I wanted a greater challenge,” Guy said.
“You only have to have a little landslide or something spook your horse and put him over the side and it’s all over for ya.” He has faced lethally-poisonous snakes and has been under the blistering sun forced to swim with alligators or wither away in the heat. Now, in Canada, he is trekking through deep snow, blizzards and white-outs and keeping his eyes peeled for black bears and grizzlies. “There’s no typical day in the saddle. Every
day you check yourself for ticks and you watch where you can,” Guy said. “It’s interesting; it’s a hard life.” “Then you have the fact that you are sleeping on the cold ground every night and sometimes that cold ground will come up and chew at your kidneys. Sometimes you get rained on and you better find cover under a tree or something. “I say to people, if it was easy then everyone would be doing it.” But why? What is his motivation? It’s simple: the challenge. “To me, it’s a challenge. You don’t know what’s around the corner, you don’t know what’s down the road, you don’t know how long your horse is going to last and then you might trade him out, and there you don’t know what you are going to get in the way of another horse,” Guy said. “You don’t know
who you are going to meet; if the people are going to be friendly or not so.” “Every day is a challenge, and I just love that. My life is not boring in any way, shape or form.” Guy hopes to ride at least another 4,000 miles to reach his goal of 15,000 miles, however he will be facing one of his biggest challenges on his journey in Canada; there is no way of telling how much snow will be waiting for him on the summit of the Grey Creek Pass, as he heads towards Kimberley, to get to Baynes Lake. Despite the uncertainty of whether there will be one foot of snow or five, and the safer possibility of going around towards Creston, Cranbrook and then to Baynes Lake, Guy was determined not to take the easy way out. “I think when I hit it
that it’s going to take a fair bit to break me. I really need to push through that snow and get there so if I spend a full day mucking around up there this way, it’s better than spending three days mucking around the other way,” said Guy. “I really just don’t know what to expect.” As it turned out, The Grey Creek Pass was more than horse and rider could handle. The snow was simply too deep and Guy was forced to turn around and take the southern route. The adventurer has already come across a couple of good-sized black bears off the side of the highway in Nelson area, who grunted at him and his horse when he had briefly stopped. He said that the most dangerous moment of the trail so far was on his trek to Castlegar going over the 1,000-foot drop-off up on the mountain. “You only have to have a little land-slide or something spook your horse and put him over the side and it’s all over for ya.” Like Lyle Lovett, if Guy could have, he would have taken his pony on the ferry out on the lake — Kootenay Lake, that is — but the modern-day insurance-bound world wouldn’t allow for that, in case his pony got scared. Luckily, he was able to get his horse to where he needed him by trailer so he didn’t lose any time.

MADD says call 911 to report drunk drivers Continued from page 1 According to a MADD survey, Canadians are not so comfortable with calling 911 to report a suspected impaired driver, as 50 per cent of people said they thought it was not an appropriate use of the service. “But after speaking with RCMP across Canada, it’s definitely something that they want to keep on with,” Sigurdson said.
MADD is battling against the notion by putting up signs highlighting the acceptance of the practice. It also has a developed community partnerships with police, call centres, traffic safety organizations, public health, insurance companies, municipalities and the media. City council avoided any discussion of signs as it was waiting for Coun. Denise
Pallesen to discuss the draft sign bylaw, the topic of signs came up anyways during Monday’s meeting. Coun. Gerry Warner noted that the city was in the midst of the sign bylaw. “It’s kind of a sensitive issue right now, but personally I really support what you want to do and I’d like to thing that for safety and security reasons we could find a place to put the
signs in appropriate spots,” Warner said. “I’ve phoned the police a few times myself when I used to live in Kimberley and commute to Cranbrook everyday. Just dangerous driving.” Sigurdson clarified that she was not looking for any signs on the sidewalks. Council decided to refer the delegation and the signage issue to the Cranbrook in Motion committee.

Koocanusa Reservoir will be within 10 feet of full by end of June.
Koocanusa near full Continued from page 1 “Kootenay Lake is already at or near peak levels, four feet below full pool,” he said. “Of course, who knows? We could still get huge amounts of rainfall in June.” That’s exactly what happened in 2012. On top of a larger than average snow pack, the Kootenays saw huge rainfall in June, resulting in widespread flooding. That month, Cranbrook had 9.6 centimetres of rain, when the average for June is 5.3 cm. Fernie had 15.5 cm, up from a monthly average of 9.9 cm. Meanwhile, Nelson had 9.6 cm of rain, up from an average of 8.1 cm. Kootenay Lake was at its highest levels in 38 years, peaking at 1,753.8 feet. Bonners Ferry, Idaho reached 1,766.6 feet, which is 2.5 feet above flood level. To reduce the flood, a rare agreement between Canada and the United States allowed the Corps to let Koocanusa go a foot above its full level, to just above 2,460 feet. That saved 0.3 feet in Kootenay Lake and 1.4 feet at Bonners Ferry. “Last year we made all sorts of efforts to provide flood control,” said Ketchum.
“2012 was a huge water year but we had pretty successful results,” he went on, adding that people were affected by flooding, but not nearly as much as they could have been if Libby Dam and Duncan Dam on Kootenay Lake weren’t there. In that case, Ketchum said, Kootenay Lake would have been another 6.5 feet higher, drastically impacting West Kootenay communities. The river at Bonners Ferry would have reached 1,775 feet, 11 feet above flood stage. Last year’s flooding has had a “hangover” effect on Koocanusa, namely in the amount of debris in the reservoir. Diane Tammen, BC Hydro’s East Kootenay community relations manager, said that each year the company spends between $75,000 and $100,000 to remove floating debris from the reservoir. Last year, BC Hydro doubled that amount, spending $185,000 removing flood debris over the course of the summer. Already this year, contractors are out on Koocanusa beginning to remove debris and getting the reservoir ready
for recreational boaters. Meanwhile, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is continuing to work to help the endangered Kootenay white sturgeon downstream of Libby Dam. The largest freshwater fish in North America, white sturgeon can grow to 12 feet in length and weigh up to 1,000 pounds in their 100year life span. With an estimated 1,000 wild adult fish remaining, the Kootenay white sturgeon was listed as endangered in Canada in 2003, after nine years on the U.S. endangered list. The fish, which don’t begin reproducing until about age 30, have been in decline since the 1950s. Biologists are trying to entice the fish to spawn upstream of Bonners Ferry, where the river bed is covered with gravel, instead of downstream of Bonners Ferry where the sandy, silty river bed suffocates the eggs. So far, experiments have failed to see the sturgeon spawn further upstream. This year, the Corps are increasing the outflow from Libby Dam to its maximum for two separate weeks to see if that draws the sturgeon further upstream.

Code-breaking the double talk
S
ometimes, in diplomacy, a translator is not enough. You need a code-breaker. This is very much the case with the latest round of diplomatic statements about the civil war in Syria, currently the biggest armed conflict anywhere in the world. So here they are, deciphered. It all started on Tuesday, when Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov announced that Russia would deliver S-300 air defence systems to Syria. He then added the following cryptic comment: ““We think this delivery is a stabilizing factor and that such steps in many ways restrain some hotheads from exploring scenarios that would turn the conflict international with the involvement of outside forces.” What on Earth does that mean? What Ryabkov was saying, decoded, was that giving Syria some state-of-the-art air defence missiles would enable it to shoot down American, British or French aircraft if they try to enforce a “no-fly” zone over Syria. And the “hotheads” he wants to deter are the American, British and French political leaders who talk about doing exactly that. The NATO countries did not lose a single aircraft when they acted as the rebels’ air force in Libya two years ago, and Moscow wants to ensure that they won’t get a free ride if they try to do the same thing in Syria. The S-300s will stop them from “considering scenarios that would turn the conflict international with the involvement of outside forces,” and thus “stabilise” the situation in Syria by making Bashar al-Assad’s regime safer. Ryabkov refused to say whether the missiles were actually on their way yet, and the Israelis promptly declared that they were
not. But Israeli Defence Minister Moshe Yaalon helpfully added: “I hope they will not leave, and if, God forbid, they reach Syria, we will know what to do.” He is clearly saying that if the missiles do reach Syria, the Israeli Air Force will attack and destroy them. But he calls it a vital issue for Israeli security, even though the missiles are purely defensive weapons, incapable of attacking Israel. “Security” in what sense? In the sense that Israel sees freedom to launch air attacks on Syria any time it Gwynne feels the need as a vital element of its security policy. Dyer The S-300s would make it more dangerous to bomb Syria, so Yalon sees them as threatening Israel’s “security”. It’s an innovative use of language, to say the least. And then there’s the European Union, which met on Monday to consider ending the blanket arms embargo against all parties to the fighting in Syria. The embargo was duly ended, and British Prime Minister David Cameron declared that it was a major step “to reinforce international efforts to reach a diplomatic solution to the conflict in Syria”. This really does require translation. What Cameron means is that with no EU arms embargo any more, individual EU members (like Britain and France) will be free to send arms to any Syrian rebel group of their choice (but not the nasty Islamists, of course). Since giving them better weapons would put more pressure on Assad to negotiate or quit, it therefore “reinforces international efforts to reach a diplomatic solution.” Obviously. Except that there won’t actually be any European weapons going to the rebels. The British and the French don’t want to get too far ahead of their EU colleagues, so they are
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
postponing that decision to another summit meeting — in August. In the meantime, the EU countries will not “proceed at this stage with the delivery” of weapons. And that’s about it. George Jabboure Netto of the opposition Syrian National Council said the end of the EU arms embargo was a “step in the right direction,” while the spokesman of the rival Syrian National Coalition said the move might be “too little too late.” (An inadvertent admission, perhaps, that things have not been going well for the rebels on the battlefield of late.) And President Barack Obama most eloquently said nothing at all. He said nothing about the EU’s initiative, because it’s so confused and contradictory that it’s embarrassing to talk about it. He said nothing about the Israeli threat to attack the Russian anti-aircraft missiles because Israel is a “friend and ally,” and it’s best not to notice when its threats to attack other countries get too brazen. And he said nothing about the Russian S-300s themselves, because he is probably secretly glad that they are being sent to Syria. Obama is not one of the “hotheads” who want to intervene in Syria, but he is coming under increasing political pressure from those who do. Senator John McCain, the elder statesman of the Republican Party, slipped across the Turkish border into Syria for an hour on Tuesday and came back swearing that it would be easy to ensure that arms aid went only to the right rebels (i.e. not the Islamist ones). So it actually helps Obama if the Syrian air defences get better, because it makes the case for “no-fly zones” and other forms of military intervention even less persuasive.

Hot off the press
“The journalistic bone yard continually yawns, but refuses to five up its dead.”
JANUS:
Jim Cameron “In the early days of the Kootenays, as soon as a town got well on its way with three general stores, a couple of hotels, a butcher shop, blacksmith shop and a livery stable, along would come … some printer-journalist with a Washington or Army press, a few fonts of type, a few reams of paper and a keg of printer’s ink, and he was away. According to the first issue of each, the town had the geographical location and the mineral wealth backing it to make it a second Spokane, Butte or Denver. They all told the same tale. Time, however, has told a different story; most of these early newspapers efforts now repose in the journalistic bone yard that continually yawns, but refuses to five up its dead.”
So spake F. J. Smyth in his book Tales of the Kootenays, himself a newspaperman of long standing with at least one newspaper of his own – the Moyie Leader – reposing in the journalistic bone yard. Still, he knew his stuff and he was pretty much right on the money as far as the Kootenay newspapers went. Frederick E. “Old Man” Simpson, a U.S. Civil War veteran from Boston, Mass., is often credited as editor of the first newspaper in town but that was not quite the case. In fact, the Herald was jointly owned by Mr. Simpson and his partner Horace T. Brown, another U.S. Civil War vet, when it began publication in March, 1898. Mr. Brown held the Herald’s editor’s chair while Mr. Simpson was taking care of the short-lived Wardner International newspaper, having previously closed the Marysville Tribune. Newspapermen tended to gamble early with their locations and it wasn’t until Cranbrook that Messrs. Simpson and Brown won their bet.

LWB, and the healing power of books Patrick Weil really wanted to hear some good news out of Haiti. The small Caribbean country had spent the 20th century suffering through social unrest, brutal dictators, large scale massacres, and HIV infecting one-fifth of its population. The 21st century has been no better. The 2010 earthquake crippled Haiti’s infrastructure, while displacing millions. As of this year, it remains the poorest country in the West. Weil — a Sorbonne history professor — knew the global community was trying to help Haiti, but he felt something was missing. The outpouring of humanitarian aid from all corners of the world brought relief in the form of food, clean water, medicine, clothing, and supplies for shelter. It was what wasn’t brought that initially got Weil’s attention. No one was bringing any books. As a historian, Weil knew the part books have played in
BOOKNOTES
Mike Selby lifting people faced with the most dismal of circumstances. Throughout the centuries, access to reading material has enabled people to greatly improve their station in life. While this is usually associated with poverty, it has also worked in the aftermath of natural disasters, as well as man-made ones. Shortly after the First World War, the United States supplied books to the French government to help badly wounded children deal with their suffering. Other countries have followed suit after the Second World War and the Yugoslavian conflicts of the 1990s. With all this in mind, Weil established Libraries without Borders (LWB) in an empty corner of his apartment in
2007. He hoped to start a non-profit organization to get books into the hands of those who needed it most. His effort was met with disbelief and derision. People thought he had to be kidding. Did he really believe people in desperate need of food and medicine care if they have something to read? Yes, he did. “Being able to read, write, and express in the worst humanitarian catastrophes helps victims to cope with the trauma of disaster and to hold on to their humanity and identity,” Weil stated to his doubters. “They (books) cultivate the human spirit and provide distractions to help disaster victims cope with trauma.” Immediately after Haiti’s earthquake, Weil worked with UNICEF to create ‘storyboxes’—children’s books in airdropped across Port-au-Prince. He then set-up mini-libraries in all the aid camps he came across. He then initiated the
BiblioTapTaps (bookmobiles), whose drivers provided not only books but information on cholera prevention. Since then, Weil’s organization has provided books during emergencies in several countries, including Chad, Republic of the Congo, Rwanda and Tunisia. With 25 employees and 500 volunteers, Libraries Without Borders is no longer run out of Weil’s apartment. His belief that “dignity through books, writing, and learning should not be denied to victims of humanitarian disasters” has brought him international support. And he finally did get some good news out of Haiti when one of his workers reported on “how stories about mighty lions of funny frogs were able to transport children from dire-post earthquake conditions; they provided escape from the trauma.” Mike Selby is Reference Librarian at the Cranbrook Public Library

Derby girls rolling into action TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor
The derby is back on this weekend as the East Kootenay Roller Derby League kicks off another event in Kimberley on Saturday night at the Civic Centre. Unlike the children’s tale, there won’t be any hallucinating as the four teams clash for Malice in Wonderland, the league’s second event of the season. It will be a double-header event, as the Invermere Killer Rollbots will challenge the Avalanche City Roller Girls out of Fernie, before the Cranbrook-Kimberley rivalry heats up with the Bavarian Barbarians taking on the Mountain Town Maulers. The first match begins at 4:45 p.m., with the following bout kicking off at 7 p.m. Though roller derby events have been hosted by the Marysville arena, the Barbarians managed to secure the Civic Centre this time, and are excited to show off their team to a hometown crowd, said Pamela Currie, who skates under the name Demolition Dolly. “We’re very excited to be in the Civic Centre
to kick off the first Kimberley game this Saturday,” said Currie. The Bavarian Barbarians have a bit of a new look this year, with some new faces on the team and a new coach. “Our team is super-excited because we have some new girls that really hit the ground rolling this year, so it just seemed to improve our team so much quicker,” added Currie. “…People that had been skating for years and through the community, heard about roller derby, heard it was rolling and progressing and they came on board and we were lucky to get people that were already established in skating.” They also managed to poach Erik the Red, the head ref of the league last year, to come on as their new head coach. “Erik used to be the head ref in the league, and then he stepped down from that, and because he’s local, he knows most of our girls, so he became our coach, which has worked out exceptionally well for us,” said Currie. “It’s a rarity that you can find a man that 15 girls will listen to.” The event will have a

There will also be the beer gardens on site. Once all the roller derby action is done, there will be an after party at the Sullivan Pub. Shuttles will be available afterwards to take derby fans to the Sully or the Marysville arena for Marysville Daze.
The girls have traditionally played in the Marysville Arena, but got the chance to book the Civic Centre in Kimberley for Saturday night. “We’ve skated there twice, and on Monday we invited Invermere down for a scrimmage,” said Currie. “So we have played a physical game on the floor and we’ve been in there twice, which gives us an advantage, but its still a new floor for us. “But it is a beautiful new upgrade.” Aside from practicing in the Civic Centre, the girls have been busy with an exhibition bout in Canmore, along with their first official EKRDL match against a new team—the Creston Black-Eyed Cherries— in Fernie.
Now, the Bavarian Barbarians are eager to reignite the rivalry between Cranbrook and Kimberley. “Last year, Cranbrook gave us an equal level playing field, and they were a wellmatched team for us,” said Currie, “so coming in this year, we’re definitely going to be pulling out all the stops to ensure our victory.” Next week, the ladies will be having a ‘Fresh Meet’ at the Resker Hall in Marysville on June 4th at 6:30 p.m., and invite anyone interested in roller derby to come out and check out information about the team, the sport and the league. Further questions can be answered by contacting Diana Wiest at 250-420-1201.
Schwartzel takes lead at Memorial ASSOCIATED PRESS
DUBLIN, Ohio Charl Schwartzel made sure one hole didn’t ruin an entire round Thursday in the Memorial. Schwartzel hit the ball so consistently well at Muirfield Village that the former Masters champion twice had
stretches of four straight birdies. And when he made a double bogey with an 8-iron in hand and his ball on a tee toward the end of the round, he got rid of that bad taste with one last birdie for a 7-under 65. Schwartzel had a one-shot lead over Scott Piercy, who went
from smashing it to playing it safe, and was six shots clear of fivetime winner Tiger Woods. Woods hit the ball well enough to be much closer, though he missed too many birdie chances and didn’t make up any ground on the par 5s.

Red Wings reflect on season after playoff exit L arry L age Associated Press
DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings rallied to extend their post-season streak to 22, the longest in North American professional sports. They got were within a win of making an improbable appearance in the Western Conference finals. Detroit, though, failed to finish off Chicago after taking a 3-1 series lead, losing three straight, including a 2-1 overtime loss in Game 7 against the Blackhawks on Wednesday night. “It stings,” Red Wings general manager Ken Holland said Thursday. “Everybody in our organization is down because we had a great chance to get to the final four. But give Chicago credit because they got it done and we didn’t.” Holland said he has mixed emotions about the year. He is disappointed Detroit couldn’t win one more game, perhaps in Game 6 when it had a third-period lead at home, to advance for a second time this post-season. Holland is encouraged, though, by how well the team’s veterans led, and
the ways its inexperienced players improved during a rebuilding season. “We have a lot of pieces in place, enough to beat the second-seeded Anaheim Ducks and to be up 3-1 on the top team in the league,” he said. “There are a lot of good things going on, but we want to get further than Game 7 in the second round.” The Red Wings hope to get past the second round next year for the first time since 2009 when they were a win away from repeating as Stanley Cup champions - by agreeing to win-win deals with Damien Brunner, Valtteri Filppula, Daniel Cleary and Drew Miller before they hit the market as unrestricted free agents. “We had teams inquiring about some of them at the trade deadline, but we made the decision to keep them and see how far they could go,” Holland said. “Now, we’d like to resign them if their finances fit in with our finances.” As soon as July 5, Holland hopes he can sign Pavel Datsyuk to a new contract so that next season isn’t the
final one on the superstar’s deal. “We’re going to talk to Pav’s agent in a while because we would like to get an extension done,” Holland said “But we’ll see because we’re in a cap world.” It won’t cost the franchise as much to resign restricted free agents Gustav Nyquist, Joakim Andersson, Brendan Smith and Jakub Kindl. “We want them back, without a doubt,” Holland said A year after swinging and missing in attempts to sign Ryan Suter and Zach Parise, Holland doesn’t plan to even attempt to make a splash this summer in free agency. “There are no quick fixes and free agency isn’t the answer,” Holland said. “It is just a tool to get finishing touches, but we’ll explore trades and we’ll keep an eye on players that are bought out of their contracts.” The Red Wings are counting on the return of three key forwards Darren Helm, Mikael Samuelsson and Todd Bertuzzi -- after they combined to play just 12 games during the
regular season because of injuries. They also lost rookie defenceman Danny DeKeyser, who coach Mike Babcock credited with helping them make the playoffs, because of a broken thumb in the first round. In all, Detroit’s injured players combined to miss 243 games during the regular season and 34 in the playoffs. “We were No. 1 in the league in man-games lost due to injury and the depth of our organi-
zation allowed us to stay afloat,” Holland said. “If we only add Helm and DeKeyser, we’re a little better, but we want to do more than that if we can to get a lot better.” Goaltender Jimmy Howard was healthy enough to play 42 of 48 games in the lockout-shortened season. He started all 14 playoff games, and did enough to earn a six-year, $31.8 million contract signed in April to stay with the franchise that drafted him a decade ago.
SAN ANTONIO Practice between games in the Western Conference finals had long wrapped for the San Antonio Spurs, and a few players stayed around to continue working. Those remaining were primarily end-of-rotation players such as Patty Mills and Tracy McGrady, but quietly working alone in a corner of the practice facility was the cornerstone of the franchise. Tim Duncan was using a ball-return machine with high netting that forced him to float shot after shot into the basket. Duncan would use the floater to knock down critical baskets in two overtime victories that helped the Spurs sweep the Memphis Grizzlies and advance to their fifth NBA finals. “I’m a competitor,” Duncan said. “I just want to play, I just want to play and try to win and try to be the best that I can. The last couple of years my game has declined and changed and I wasn’t ready to let it go. I wanted to play as well as I can as long as I can.”
The 37-year-old’s resurgence in his 16th season isn’t magic, it’s mundane. It’s losing 30 pounds in the off-season, realizing his own limitations and practicing a floater on the same day he became the second-oldest player selected to the All-NBA first-team. “The greatest players have that drive,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “You can name them, about eight or 10 of them in this modern era starting with Magic, Bird, and all those guys, and you add Michael and whoever; about eight or 10 of those guys that have unbelievable character and professionalism. “They last a little bit longer and they do it at a high level because it’s just how they’re built. They have that kind of competitiveness and heart and feel the responsibility to their teammates and Timmy is certainly one of those guys.” Duncan is averaging 17.6 points, 9.2 rebounds and 2.1 assists in the post-season, almost identical to his regular-season numbers if 17.8 points and 9.9 rebounds.

adults and $5 for chidren. They can also be bought in advance at Lotus Books and CDN 2 for 1 Pizza in Cranbrook for $5 for seniors and children and $8 for adults. As of press time, Kathleen Decosse was unavailable to be interviewed. Devin Fikis Age: 15 Student at Selkirk Secondary School in Kimberley 1. What is your favourite song/band? I like Fleetwood Mac at the moment, Amy Winehouse and Hey Ocean! but that’s not a very popular band. 2. What is your music style? I will listen and try to sing anything I can, pretty much anything really except for some rap, you know. I’m pretty open about music. 3. How long have you been singing and performing? I really started singing when I was about eight. 4. Why are you so passionate about music? I don’t know. There are some times when I don’t feel like singing anymore but I get inspired when I hear other people sing passionately – about something they love or they feel. I become inspired and I feed off of that. When I was 11 or 12, I wrote a song for my dad when he moved away and I think that’s probably the most passionate song that I’ve sang. 5. What would it mean to you if you won the title of Kootenay’s Best Singer? I would be pretty happy. Gosh, I don’t know what I would do. I
just think I would be pretty happy. If I did win Kootenay’s Best Singer, I wouldn’t doubt my singing capabilities anymore because I do a lot of the time. 6. Anything else you would like to add? I’ve seen Kathleen, and she’s really good. Tyrel Hawke Age: 24 Student in Lethbridge studying for a Nursing Degree. Undergrad nursing intern at Lethbridge Hospital 1. What is your favourite song/band? My favorite artist would be Ben Folds, I fell in love with him when I was 16. His genre is known as Piano Rock. He’s the most amazing pianist I’ve ever come across. But my favorite all time song would be Wild Horses by Alicia Keys and Adam Levine. 2. What is your music style? On my own style, what I love to do, I write my own music and I’m a keyboardist and vocalist. I do a lot of a more laid-back acoustic feel to my music. I like to do acoustic covers of pop songs. 3. How long have you been singing and performing? I started piano, I think, when I was four. What really got me going was that once I got into high-school met up with Evan, the music teacher there and who is absolutely amazing and I got into the Jazz Vocal program and the music composition and technology courses. It really helped me to solidify writing as well. I’ve been doing shows ever since then. I’ve directed a jaw program out in Lethbridge for two years
now. 4. Why are you so passionate about music? I guess I’m just a stage junky. I just love to be on stage – whether it’s performing or helping with sets and different things. I think it’s an extremely positive outlet, especially as I’ve taken it through youth programs. I think it’s an amazing opportunity for children and youth to experience music because it gives you such empowerment and enlightenment. 5. What would it mean to you if you won the title of Kootenay’s Best Singer? It really would mean a lot to me. I’ve performed in Cranbrook for see what the years so it’s really great to finally be a contester and to see what the Kootenays have to offer. Now that I am moving away from Cranbrook and the Kootenays, It would make me feel complete – like I’ve finished my goals and my journeys there and so I would have an easier time departing from the Kootenays for a while. 6. Anything else you would like to add? My future goal is once I graduate my program I hope to work in Pediatric Cancer of the B.C. Children’s Hospital and I hope to get my Music Therapy diploma as well to run a children and youth music therapy program. I do have to say that the girl who got second [Jamie Byram] blew my mind, she’s unbelievable. I’ve really admired all the young singers that have come up and shown their amazing talents. There’s a lot of talent in the Kootenays.
Jamie Byram Age: 14 Student at Parkland in Cranbrook 1. What is your favourite song/band? My favorite song and my favorite band kind of go together. My favorite song is Bloom by the Paper Kites and the Paper Kites and Daughter are two of my favorite bands right now. 2. What is your music style? I like to sing everything. Right now I’m more drawn to indie music or alternative music, I guess you could say. 3. How long have you been singing and performing? I’ve been singing probably since I could talk. For all I can remember I’ve been singing in my living room and performing shows for my family. It’s really all I know. 4. Why are you so passionate about music? I’m passionate about it because I find it to be the easiest way that I express myself and I love the feeling of being on stage performing in front of people. It’s how I have kind of deal with everything. It’s just how I express myself and I want to share it with other people. 5. What would it mean to you if you won the title of Kootenay’s Best Singer? It would mean everything to me. I’ve never really known what it felt like to want something so bad until now. I’m competitive but I’ve never been passionate about sports or anything. Because music is so important to me I think it would be amazing.

Kimberley Summer Theatre Presents:
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might note that others are in a less-than-agreeable mood. A domestic issue demands your attention. Interestingly, the more you study the problem, the more likely you are to see it in a different light. Be sure to choose your words with care. Tonight: Not to be found. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might be compared to a fast-moving freight train that’s unwilling or unable to stop. You know what you want, and will do your best to get someone to go along with your idea. Be a little more patient, and you will achieve better results. Tonight: Where people are. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will note a sudden energy swing. You might not have as much under control as you would like. Consider your options involving a boss or some other authority figure. This person will help you achieve your goal -- you just have to ask. Tonight: A force to be dealt with.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) A recent reflective streak transforms into a more verbal self-expression. Others could have quite a reaction, as they might view your ideas as unconventional. Curb your irritation by expressing your feelings. Tonight: Take off for the weekend if you really want to get away. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might be consumed by an idea and feel like you’re unable to come up with a solution. A discussion with a friend presents many workable ideas. Try them out. Curb your anxiety through yoga, exercise or whatever works for you. Tonight: Share with a favorite person. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might be overthinking and sharing only some of your thoughts. You need to rethink a decision more carefully. Getting feedback from the right people can only help. Refuse to respond to an older friend who might be cantankerous. Be polite if you can. Tonight: At a favorite place. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Mellow out despite a difficult
For Better or Worse
conversation. The positive lies in the fact that you gained a new perspective and can identify with others more easily. Someone you respect might share some confidential information that needs to be kept hushhush. Tonight: Relax first, then decide. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) How you handle a difficult situation changes because you are able to detach and see the issue differently. You might trigger others by not responding to their bait. Maintain a sense of humor, and share only when you feel comfortable. Tonight: Make the first move. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might not be in sync with someone else. You could wonder where to start with a project. If you feel the need to change your schedule, make an adjustment. Stay centered. Be sure to share your feelings with a close friend or loved one. Tonight: Entertain at home. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Think in terms of finally establishing a stronger bond with
someone you care a lot about. This person will share, given some space. You might note that if you can’t achieve what you want, you tend to get frustrated. Take frequent walks to ease the tension. Tonight: Out late. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Remember that you have many talents. Do not give too much; otherwise, others might think you don’t value yourself. Be aware of the cost of following through on a certain set of plans involving friends. You’ll need to stay on top of your end of the bill. Tonight: Let the party begin. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A loved one will share a secret that makes you smile from ear to ear. Your light mood might encourage others to ask you for help. Say “no” to an offer or invitation that implies more work and responsibilities. Right now, you need to take a break. Tonight: As you like it.

Rhymes with Orange
By Hillary B. Price
Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I have been married to a wonderful man for 35 years and have terrific children and beautiful grandchildren. Our marriage has been great, except for my manipulative and emotionally blackmailing mother-in-law. Our only fights have stemmed from lies and made-up stories this woman tells. She has destroyed relationships with other family members and blames me for it even when we live miles away. I support my husband in any decision he makes regarding her, and I have never badmouthed her. She recently pulled the ultimate scheme. Knowing that I had never met my son’s fiancee, my mother-in-law took it upon herself to tell her the “truth” about me. After a threehour visit with my soon-to-be daughter-inlaw and her parents, the poor girl was in tears when our son came home from work. Our son said if he hadn’t known the truth, he would have believed his grandmother. She was very convincing and even brought on fake tears. Our children are now so upset with their grandmother that they do not want her near their kids, planting lies in their minds. I have tried to be the better person over the years, welcoming my mother-in-law into our home, giving her birthday presents and even planning anniversary parties when none of her other children could or would. But I’m done. My husband has confronted his mother many times regarding her destructive behavior, but she says he doesn’t see the “real” me. Now I worry that she is trying to come between my husband and his father, who is ill. My mother-in-law doesn’t return our phone calls or tell us when Dad is in the hospital. We hear everything through a third party, sometimes days after it happens. How do I handle this? -- Daughter-Out-Law Dear Daughter: Perhaps if your husband had set stricter boundaries with more dire consequences years ago, this situation would be better now, but there are no guarantees. Some people are beyond reasoning with. It’s time to step back and let your husband handle his mother. As long as she believes she can control him, she will do so. Your husband should try to get his information about Dad through other sources and bypass Mom whenever possible. It’s terribly sad, but you cannot force her to be a better person. (She sounds mentally ill.) Dear Annie: I am a skinny woman with large breasts. I know there is a crazy stereotype that women like me are wild party girls. I’m actually quite conservative. But other women seem to think it’s OK to poke my breasts or lift them, probably to check whether they are real. Last week at a party, some insufferable girl I just met turned the entire conversation to my breasts. I walked away to cool off, but someone overheard me say that the girl was obnoxious. So “poking girl” started shouting at me, and you can guess how the rest of the night went. Annie, please tell your readers that just because a woman has large breasts doesn’t mean she wants to be poked and prodded in public. Where have basic social graces gone? -- Staying Classy Dear Classy: You hang around with some inappropriate, rather creepy women. Your body, all of it, belongs to you. If someone touches your breasts, gasp in horror and perhaps yell loudly for the police. What nerve. Dear Annie: Thank you for recommending the NAMI Family-to-Family class to “Parents at Wits’ End.” When I took that 12-week class, I learned so much about mental illness, as well as finding support and hope from other parents. I have no doubt my son is doing better because of it. -- Grateful Mother Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Vancouver Orpheus Male Choir will be performing in Cranbrook and Kimberley, Tuesday and Wednesday, June 4 and 5.
Vancouver Orpheus Male Choir in concert Submit ted
Kootenay music fans are invited to two concerts featuring the Vancouver Orpheus Male Choir, directed by Liana Savard. The concerts will be in Cranbrook on Tuesday, June 4th at 7:30 p.m. at the Knox Presbyterian Church and in Kimberley Wednesday June
5th at 7:30 p.m. at the Kimberley United Church. Tickets for both concerts are $20 adults, $18 student/ seniors, $10 under 12 years and they will be available at the door. Vancouver Orpheus Male Choir was founded in 1992 in the tradition of Welsh Male Choirs “for men of all ages
who enjoy singing.” Twenty years later Orpheus is an audience favourite particularly for it’s passion, breadth of repertoire and enjoying themselves on stage. The program will bring back many of its most popular songs from past concerts and feature new repertoire additions as well.
The program will include: As Time Goes By, Battle Hymn, Danny Boy, Sixteen Tons, Wild Mountain Time, Bridge Over Troubled Waters, Working Man, and Hallelujah. For more information on the choir, visit their website, www.vancouverorpheus.org or contact Marta at 427-2883.

Family tradition, corporate support benefits Bellies to Babies program Submitted
The East Kootenay Foundation For Health’s Starlite Campaign for Excellence in Health Care has benefited from some amazing gifts and traditions over the years. One such tradition is that of a family who regularly tries to surprise their dad, sister or brother with a gift to a charity that showcases the interest of the individual. EKFH was pleased recently to manage the family’s donation with a specific
gift to Bellies to Babies Program. The program is a pregnancy and family resource program that serves the communities of Cranbrook and Kimberley, and the surrounding area. Part of the program includes providing access to the use of infant car seats which became the surprise gift for this EKFH donor whose desire was to purchase three infant car seats with their 2012 Starlite gift. “When we started look-
ing to purchase the car seats, the program coordinator Pat Chisholm was doubly blessed when she met Dave Thomson, Store Manager for the Real Canadian Superstore,” said Donna Grainger, EKFH Executive Director. After hearing the good news story of the donor, Dave and the team at the Real Canadian Superstore put in an extra effort to provide four car seats at the same cost as the donor’s gift and then threw in a special
surprise of a complimentary convertible car seat that can be used from infancy through to toddler age. Support for the East Kootenay Foundation for Health takes many forms whether it is a financial donation, gift in kind, volunteering for one of its projects or events and sometimes linking interest groups together. To learn more about our mission and the work of the foundation visit us at www. ekfh.ca.
Horace Brown retired from newspaper work soon after the Herald opened and returned to Spokane where he died in 1900. F.E. Simpson closed the Wardner office and took up duties in Cranbrook, a post he would maintain for 11 years. The first Herald office, little more than a fancy wooden shack stood on the corner of 7th Avenue and 1st Street. Their printing press and sundry equipment arrived in early 1898, having been transported overland through the snow and mud from Kalispell. At the time, the Herald office was little more than an unenclosed floor which is where the press was placed, preparing to print as the building rose around them. The Herald originally faced stiff competition with the Fort Steele Prospector published by A. B. Grace. Andrew Benjamin Grace came to Fort Steele in 1895 as a painter/decorator but soon recognized the need for the printed page and, so saying, published the first issue of the Prospector by means of hand-typed mimeograph (stencil) sheets. His first small, hand-driven printing press arrived by steamboat from Kalispell the following year. The term “hot off the press” may well have applied to the long-running editorial war waged between Liberal/ Cranbrook booster Simpson and Conservative/Fort Steele booster Grace. The war of words ran the gamut from gentle mockery to outright lambasting of the other’s beliefs and shortcomings. In the end it was Mr. Simpson who had the last laugh as the town of Fort Steele slowly emptied and Cranbrook grew. In 1905, Mr. Grace gritted his teeth, swallowed his pride and relocated the Prospector newspaper to Cranbrook. The fact that both men were now batting for the same side seemed to calm the editorial waters somewhat and in fact the two appeared to grow downright amicable over the ensuing years. In August, 1898, the Herald replaced their small printing plant with the largest cylinder printing press in the Kootenays and also added to their office a paper cutter, a perforator, a num-
bering machine and an assortment of type (the letters and symbols used for printing). The paper cutter proved especially useful the following month when the Herald was called upon to cut over $10,000 (about $296,000 by present day standards) worth of bills for the local Canadian Bank of Commerce. Mr. Simpson stated, “Since the job was finished the once reliable cutter has gotten cranky and refuses to cut common paper.” About this time The Herald moved into a second two-story building near the northwest corner of 9th Avenue and 1st Street. By 1899, the Herald was printing 1,000 copies a week and running a busy printing business on the side. In one week alone it turned out its regular newspaper, a 72page copy of Odd Fellows bylaws, a 33-page book of poetry and two books of stock certificates, not to mention the usual run of posters, placards, invitations, cards, and other such sundry items that served to bring in a steady income. In 1904 the Herald moved for the last time to new quarters on Baker Street next to the Wentworth (Allan) Hotel. Of all the papers of those early days, and there were surprisingly many, the Herald proved among the most resilient. Although owner/editor Simpson sold out in November, 1909, the business continued until 1927. Mr. Simpson spent his remaining years in both the real estate business in Kamloops and as editor of the Kamloops Standard-Sentinel, later starting a short-lived society paper in Victoria. He died on Nov. 23, 1920. A. B. Grace passed away in Cranbrook on Dec.11, 1915, three years after his retirement from the newspaper business. Both he and his wife Elizabeth are buried in the Old General cemetery. Endnote: In 1904, F.E. Simpson, in partnership with Arthur Bennett, launched the Lethbridge Weekly Herald. Much of the first issue’s preliminary work was done in the Cranbrook office. By 1906 both men had sold out their interests in the enterprise. The paper remains in publication today as the daily Lethbridge Herald.

2. Your Competition Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Quitting. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.
3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.

A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.
4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image. When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a better chance of getting their business if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.
5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient. Direct has the advantages â&#x20AC;&#x201C; demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.
6. Advertise to Generate Traffic. Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.
7. Advertise to Make More Sales. Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.
8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate. Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in business, you have overhead and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.
9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image. In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.
10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale. When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

‘Religion for Atheists’: Building Community
I
’ve started reading a fascinating book called “Religion for Atheists: a non–believer’s guide to the uses of religion.” Written by French philosopher Alain de Botton, his central thesis is that while religions may not be true, they still have an enduring value in our world. He begins his book by noting that many have tried to prove the non–existence of God. “Tough–minded critics of religion have found much pleasure in laying bare the idiocy of believers in remorseless detail, finishing only when they felt they had shown up their enemies as thorough–going simpletons or maniacs.” De Botton’s website claims that this debate has become boring. He is a committed atheist, but goes on to
assert that religions still have some very important things to teach the secular world. “The premise of this book is that it must be possible to remain a committed atheist and nevertheless find religions sporadically useful, interesting and consoling.” The idea intrigued me. Perhaps here was a way in which we could build some common ground for a fruitful conversation about differing worldviews and the choices we make on the basis of our worldview. Some of the pre–publication advertising indicated that de Botton considered such things as art and music and architecture to be among the lasting legacy of religions to the world. There can’t be much debate about that. Religions of all kinds have enriched the world with beauti-
Rev. Yme Woensdregt ful creations in the arts. As just one example, one can’t read western literature fully without knowing something about Christian faith. Given this advance publicity, it came to me as quite a shock that the first thing de Botton mentions as a useful and interesting legacy of religion is the sense of community. “One of the losses modern society feels most keenly is that of a sense of community.” That’s quite an ironic statement, given the amount of interest that’s being paid to staying connected, whether
it be via Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn or any of the other social networking sites. But as William Powers argues in his book “Hamlet’s Blackberry”, our technological connectivity is very shallow. We may be connected far and wide, but we have no real sense of community despite that connectedness. De Botton similarly argues that religion helps to foster a deeper sense of community. He uses worship as an analogy, particularly the Roman Catholic mass. “It marks off a piece of the earth, puts walls up around it and declares that within their parameters there will reign values utterly unlike those which hold sway in the world beyond, in the offices, gyms and living rooms of the city.” Within those walls gathers a community of people who
seek to know and be known. More important, the community that gathers is diverse. “Those in attendance tend not to be uniformly of the same age, race, profession or educational or income level; they are a random sampling of souls united only by their shared commitment to certain values.” A community like that breaks down social barriers in a way that no other kind of community does. We usually tend to gather only with those who are the same as us. But the kind of community fostered by religion is more diverse. The church has managed “to persuade monarchs and magnates to kneel down and abase themselves before the statue of a carpenter and to wash the feet of peasants, street sweepers and dispatch drivers.”
We don’t do this in secular society, he argues, and we are the poorer for it. Secular people can learn from this practice; indeed we all need to learn from this, for our lives have become insular and unconnected. We have largely lost any deep sense of community, which has always been an important and enriching part of human life. I’m looking forward to reading the rest of this book. To be sure, people on both sides of the debate will “annoy participants on both sides of the debate.” I, however, am not one of those. I look forward to moving ahead to a time when we can talk together without calling each other names.

Babies gave inmates hope, court hears Vivian Luk Canadian Press
VANCOUVER — Infants and their mothers participating in a provincial program to keep them together in jail gave all prisoners a sense of hope and pride, a judge has heard, with one mother testifying about her fruitless efforts to stay with her child after the program was cancelled. Recreational therapist Alison Granger-Brown was testifying in B.C. Supreme Court on Thursday as part of a constitutional challenge launched after the program was cancelled in 2008. She said she was responsible for making sure the inmates at Maple Ridge’s Alouette Correctional Centre for Women developed a healthy lifestyle. She told court that organizing birthday parties and christenings for the babies, teaching incarcerated mothers how to play with their children, and allowing inmates to run outside or plant herbs created a positive environment. “It was something joyful, it was something hopeful, it was something about helping women to think about the future that was different,’’ she said. “The mothers grew in stature, they just had pride.’’ Granger-Brown said even though some inmates found it emotionally hard to be around
the babies, the women were always careful about their behaviour around the infants. Two former inmates are arguing that not being allowed to have their babies with them while they served their sentence after the program was cancelled constituted cruel punishment and was an in-
fringement of their rights as mothers. But the province has argued the program posed dangers for the infants and that its cancellation did not violate any rights. Patricia Block, one of the plaintiffs in the case, testified she was about three months pregnant when she was sent to
Alouette in September 2008. When she got there, she realized the mother-baby program was no longer available. Block, who had been arrested for possession for the purpose of trafficking, said she was concerned she would not be released prior to her delivery date.
``Because I was carrying, I was pregnant, I needed to try to make the best plan possible to keep my child with me,’’ she said. Block was eventually sentenced to two years in prison. Her application to the federal mother-baby program was rejected. Block gave birth to a
history. ``I don’t know what the screening was, but from what I noticed living in the unit, a lot of the personalities were similar — non-aggressive people, quiet people,’’ she said. Block now lives in Penticton with her two children and her husband.
daughter, Amber, in March 2009, and the baby was taken away from her. While Block did not have a child with her then, she testified she resided with mother-baby pairs and was only allowed to do so after a screening process that appeared to be based on personality and criminal

UN human rights expert urges moratorium on ‘killer robots’ Associated Press
GENEVA — A U.N. human rights expert is urging nations to agree to a moratorium on developing robots for war that can function autonomously. U.N. special rapporteur Christof Heyns says a temporary freeze would give nations time to think through the implications of creating socalled killer robots while “the genie is still in the bottle’’ technologically. But Heyns told reporters Thursday the
technology is quickly being developed for machines that have the power to kill humans after the flip of a switch, but lack the ability to make fine distinctions according to international humanitarian law. He says another big danger of developing these kinds of robots is that it will make it easier for nations to go to war because of the increasing detachment between people and the decision to kill.
B.C. health officer issues warning about overdoses of prescription drug C Anadian Press
VICTORIA — B.C.’s health officer is asking emergency doctors and other health-care workers to be on the lookout for potential overdoses involving a powerful prescription painkiller. The Health Ministry says numbers from the coroners service suggest that in the first four months of 2013, there have been 23 deaths as a result of people taking fentanyl compared to 20 deaths in all of last year. The ministry says in a news release that fentanyl, which is primarily for cancer patients, is a dangerous opioid and
people taking it might think they’re using heroin or oxycodone. Fentanyl can cause death, and the ministry notes the drug produces symptoms that mirror overdoses of other opioids but requires higher amounts of medication to treat the overdose. The release says even handling fentanyl can be dangerous because it can be absorbed into the mucous membranes. The ministry says during a 2006 fentanyl epidemic in Chicago, 342 people died.

Arthur Porter plans to fight for extradition and bail in Panama Andy Bl atchford Canadian Press
MONTREAL — The former head of Canada’s spy-agency watchdog is planning to fight his extradition to Canadian soil following his arrest in Panama, his lawyer says. Dr. Arthur Porter and his wife, Pamela, sat behind bars Thursday in a Panamanian detention centre, a few days after local authorities took them into custody on an Interpol warrant. Porter, who lives in the Bahamas, has been wanted for months in connection with Quebec’s ongoing corruption scandals and the construction of a $1.3-billion hospital complex. His wife faces a related charge. Developments in the case reveal an improbable web of interpersonal connections. They place Porter one degree of separation from a pair of notorious 1980s figures: the Lockerbie bomber and former Panamanian dictator Manuel Noriega. He is slated to be treated by an oncologist who once examined the Libyan terrorist’s cancer. Those medical plans were revealed Thursday by the Porters’ Panamanian lawyer, who once helped smuggle cocaine with Noriega. Porter was appointed by Prime Minister Stephen Harper to head the Security Intelligence Review Committee, which monitors the work of CSIS. He says he’s done nothing wrong. His lawyer told The Canadian Press that the couple will not only contest their extradition, but will also seek bail in the coming days. “He has the right to fight
neath it. One man grabbed an extinguisher and doused the fire. No one was hurt. The blaze was apparently caused by a cleaning cloth which was left under the hood. State broadcaster ORF says the unidentified driver drove about 1 kilometre (0.6 mile) to the station after a passer-by alerted him to the fire.
Arthur Porter in 2006 and he has decided to fight,’’ Ricardo Bilonick said in a phone interview from Panama City. Media outlets had reported that Porter would not fight his extradition to Canada, but Bilonick said things have changed. “The first day I saw him, which was the day after his arrest, he was very down, obviously,’’ said Bilonick, a former diplomat who testified at Noriega’s 1991 trial about their past illegal ties. “But today I found him very peppy and willing to fight.’’ Bilonick described the Canadian extradition request as poorly formulated. He planned to ask a judge for bail next week, a process that could take a few days or even a couple of weeks. If the Porters are released on bail, he said they would have to stay in Panama until their extradition proceedings have been completed. Bilonick expects that step to take a couple of months. Police in Panama say they detained the Porters after
learning that Canadian authorities had issued an arrest warrant for them on fraud-related allegations. The Porters arrived in the country on a flight from the Bahamas. Panamanian police have said Porter stopped in the country en route to Trinidad and Tobago. But Bilonick says Porter indicated to him that the pair was actually headed to Antigua. Porter, he added, told him he was scheduled to meet with the prime minister as part of a diplomatic mission for his native Sierra Leone. Bilonick said he believed Porter had used his Sierra Leonean diplomatic passport to enter Panama, before being arrested hours later at a hotel near the airport. The lawyer maintains that Porter should not have been arrested because of diplomatic immunity. He also listed Porter’s poor health as among a number of additional reasons why he believed the physician should not be extradited to Canada.
“I have several options that I haven’t given you... because those are the aces in my hand,’’ Bilonick said. Porter has said he was suffering from stage-four cancer and was too ill to travel. Bilonick said an oncologist and business partner of Porter’s requested — and was granted — permission to travel to Panama to treat him. Bilonick said in the coming days the Porters will be transferred from the Panama City detention centre to separate jails for men and women, about 60 kilometres from the capital. Porter, 57, faces charges of fraud, conspiracy to commit fraud, fraud against the government, breach of trust, money-laundering, and accepting bribes. His wife, whose arrest warrant had not been public, faces charges of money-laundering and conspiracy. The physician is one of several people facing charges stemming from the construction of the $1.3-billion McGill University Health Centre in Montreal — one of Canada’s biggest infrastructure projects. He received prestigious appointments from different levels of government in Canada. Porter abruptly resigned from his federal post in November 2011. He also quit his job as director of the McGill hospital network and left the country. He has been working as the managing director of a private cancer treatment centre in the Bahamas. Porter told media a few months ago that he had late, stage-four cancer and was too ill to travel to Canada.

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Stephen Harper is steadfastly refusing to acknowledge any question about his leadership during the months last winter when an expense scandal involving three of his Conservative Senate appointees was in the public eye. Harper has spent the past three days insisting that he first learned that his chief of staff had helped pay off Sen. Mike Duffy’s $90,000 in improper expense claims only after the public was told of the matter by CTV in mid-May. But he has failed to address repeated questions about how he instructed his staff to handle the politically damaging expense revelations after they
first aired late last fall. Neither Harper nor his NDP and Liberal counterparts were in question period Thursday, so it fell to Heritage Minister James Moore to bear the brunt of the opposition onslaught. “Duffy keeps the $90,000 while the Receiver General gets $90,000 from an illicit deal that was so wrong it cost Mr. Wright his job,’’ said Liberal MP Ralph Goodale. “Will the government repudiate the dirty money and instead garnishee Duffy’s wages and seize his assets so he pays for his wrongdoing, not some deal-maker in the PMO?’’ Moore pointed out the matter is in the hands of the RCMP, then chastised the Liberals for failing to address reports that
Liberal Sen. Pana Merchant is the beneficiary of her husband’s secret offshore bank account worth $1.7 million. During an appearance earlier Thursday with Chilean President Sebastian Pinera, Harper was again asked what direction he gave his office to manage the political fallout when it first became public last year. Harper said it is up to the Senate to investigate the matter, and that he learned only on May 15 that Duffy had not repaid his expenses from his own pocket. There was also evidence Thursday of the bruising impact the ongoing scandal is having on the Conservative caucus.
“Power has slowly been transferred from (the House of Commons) first to the cabinet and then from the cabinet ultimately to the PMO. And I think it’s a problem,’’ said Brent Rathgeber, a Conservative backbencher with a reputation for being blunt and straightforward. The Conservatives were elected in part on a promise to change that, Rathgeber acknowledged. “That’s why there’s a lot of disappointment amongst our base and why we’re all eagerly awaiting answers and a resolution to ensure that these types of incidents don’t happen again.’’
