‘Before we could even react, the grizzly was on us’

Fernie men tell story of bear attack TAMAR A HYND Fernie Free Press

Brian Braconnier and Keith Farkas are very fortunate to be at home with their families after a close encounter with a grizzly. “We are so thankful we’re sitting here, the two of us, making these statements,” said Farkas. “Rather than our wives writing our obituaries.” The two Fernie men

Mayor reflects on Asian trip ARNE PE T RYSHEN Townsman Staff

In Thursday’s Daily Townsman, Cranbrook City Councillor Coun. Diana J. Scott discussed her excitement about a recent trip to China and Korea to foster economic ties. On Friday, Mayor Wayne Stetski gave his thoughts to the Townsman on the trip and

how meeting with dignitaries from Taicang, China, and Wonju, Korea will be a benefit to Cranbrook. Mayor Stetski said the reception from both cities was outstanding, and that both wish to explore and develop opportunities through formal relationships with Cranbrook. Both cities are significantly

larger than Cranbrook — with Taicang having a population of roughly 480,000 permanent residents and 320,000 temporary workers, and Wonju having a population of 330,000. The first stop was Taicang, the delegates had discussions with port administration regarding trade, especially of natural resources. Represen-

tatives of Teck and Canfor Forest Products travelled from Beijing and Shanghai offices to participate in the meetings, as well as John MacDonald, who is Managing Director for BC’s International Trade and Investment based in Shanghai.

who were attacked by a grizzly bear on Wednesday morning shared their story at a press conference late Thursday evening. Both men, in their mid-thirties, were hiking along a basin heading for the side of a ridge with heavy elk trails on Mount Proctor when a mother grizzly attacked.

RCMP officer takes two into custody after high-speed chase A R N E P E T RYS H E N

Friday proved to be an exciting and potentially deadly day for one Cranbrook police officer. On Friday, July 5 at 1:30 p.m. Cranbrook RCMP began combing the city and surrounding area on a report of a truck stolen from Van Horne Street in Cranbrook. The police officer — who wasn’t identified in a subsequent press release — located the suspected stolen truck

at on Hwy 93/95 just north of the Wasa turnoff. When the officer tried to confront the suspect male driver and female passenger, the driver of the truck drove towards him. The officer managed to avoid the truck and fire off his sidearm, hitting at least one of the vehicle’s driver-side tires (though both were confirmed flat at the end of the chase.)

Fernie men describe grizzly attack connected with her. Like lightning, she was around a corner and coming at me airborne from above. She clawed me and pushed me back. I landed on my back in the most terrifying position with my head downhill and my feet uphill. I was screaming. Her face was one foot away from my boot and she turned around and left.” “We knew we had to get out right away,” said Braconnier.

“She hit me four times in total. On the third time, she grabbed my arm with her mouth and flung me through the air.” Brian Braconnier They grabbed Farkas’s backpack that the bears had dragged a few metres down the trail. The men left in the same direction they had come, looking over their shoulders in fear that the grizzly was coming back. “We got to a safe zone,” said Farkas. “I was bleeding badly. I took off my shirt and put on bandages. I took a look at Brian’s hand. He had three cuts so I bandaged him too. Brian couldn’t see a thing. The pepper spray had hit him, the bear and me. Brian was

practically blinded by the spray. We had an okay field (first aid) kit. I knew his wounds were worse than mine but I didn’t say anything to him. I just bandaged him up and said, ‘Come on. Let’s get going.’” “I knew right away this was an extreme situation,” said Farkas. “I knew we had get down the mountain. We had to get home safe and I knew we had to go to the hospital.” What normally takes them two hours to hike, took them one hour to get down the mountain. When asked what they might do differently, Braconnier said he would be more cautious of noises while Farkas said he will practice loading a shotgun as if it were a timely, stressful situation. Both men look remarkably healthy but their wounds are deep both emotionally and physically. Braconnier suffered injuries to his arms, legs and right wrist. Somehow her teeth managed to miss the main vein in his wrist by millimetres when she threw him through the air. His legs are scratched and bruised from being “ bounced around” by the bear. Farkas has puncture wounds on both arms from the bear’s claws so large that you could stick your finger into them. His left arm is swollen from the impact and it does not

The officer then got in his vehicle and pursued the suspect truck — noting once that the vehicle was hitting speeds of 135 km and difficult to keep up with. Officers from Cranbrook and Invermere were scrambled in the Wasa direction. The suspect vehicle turned off on a road near the Skookumchuck mill, stopped and the officer was able to take both into custody, before awaiting reinforcements.

Brian Braconnier and Keith Farkas were attacked by a grizzly bear on Mount Proctor last Wednesday. The men explained the details of the attack, along side COS Sgt. Joe Caravetti, during a press conference on Thursday evening in Fernie.

Continued from page 1 The men said what happened in 30 seconds seemed like an eternity. “I heard a growl and then we heard a second growl,” said Farkas. “Before we could even react, the grizzly was on us. She hit Brian in the back, knocked him over, took him downhill and out of my sight behind some shrubs. I couldn’t see what was going on. I could just hear him screaming my name and the bear growling. I saw a cub following her downhill and it was also growling. That’s when I reached for my (defender) shotgun that was strapped to the outside of my pack.” “She hit me four times in total,” explained Braconnier. “On the third time, she grabbed my arm with her mouth and flung me through the air. When I landed, I grabbed my pepper spray. When she came at me again, she was at an arms distance as I used the bear spray on her. It deterred her but she still ran me over. In two lunges she was back up the hill towards Keith. I could hear him screaming but I couldn’t see a thing.” Farkas continued, “I was fumbling with the straps on my backpack trying to get the gun off. I was fumbling with the shells trying to load my gun. I managed to load a shell. I saw her paws. I took one shot. She stood up and seemed to writhe in pain like the shot had

Continued from page 1 Stetski said at the port there were a lot of raw logs from B.C., as well as lumber, and Teck ships a lot of coal to China. He said they Taicang is expanding the port and so it is a good time to foster ties. “It was a good opportunity for Canfor and Teck to expand their contacts in Taicang using our delegation as the rationale,” Stetski said. Taicang has a business incubator for new Enterprise technologies, and is building a large new business and technology complex . Stetski said a technology incubator is something he would like to see pursued in Cranbrook. “They work out of a subsidized building complex until the businesses become viable on their own, then they move out and establish a permanent site elsewhere,” he said. “It helps new businesses get going.” They toured Chien-Shiung Institute of Technology and dis-

cussed opportunities to develop a formal relationship with College of the Rockies. The College of the Rockies noted that each international student brings an estimated $16,000 in direct benefits to Cranbrook and the college. In Wonju, South Korea, the delegates discussed areas of interest in tourism development, opportunities for business investment, and post-secondary education partnerships. The mayor and delegates also toured the Agricultural Technical Centre to learn more about Wonju’s intensive agriculture sector. Wonju will also play a role in South Korea’s hosting of the 2018 Winter Olympics and are interested in Canadian investment. The first thing Stetski noticed on the two hour drive from Seoul to Wonju is the prevalence of gardens. “There are gardens everywhere lining the highway,” he said. “Pretty much 95 per cent of

He noted that this is downtown in a city of more than 300,000. Stetski said one of the reasons for the abundance of gardens and farming is that there is a lot of direct support from government for the farmers. “We’re starting to encourage more locally grown food with the farmer’s market and new community garden,

City Hall in background but when you look at what can be done to help people really get into growing their own vegetable and growing enough for export we have a considerable way to go,” he said, adding that there is so much more we could be doing here to support farmers. “That was a real learning experience. The RDEK’s agriculture plan is going to make some recommendations of how governments can help in a number of ways, for farmers to be more successful.” On the tourism side of things, Stetski said he hopes to see tourism wholesalers bringing people here from Wonju and Taicang in the future. To do that, he said we need to have tourism packages to offer, like those in other places around the world. “We have some

homework to do around the tourism side, but we have contacts that I think can be very useful in the future,” he said. Wonju is on the way to becoming a “friendly city” with Cranbrook, while Taicang already is. A friendly city is a ranked just below a sister city in terms of international municipal relationships. Stetski said the travel cost for him to China and South Korea was $2,705. “Our time in China and South Korea certainly strengthened the personal and professional relationships between Cranbrook and the cities of Wonju and Taicang,” he added. “It is now up to all of us to build on those relationships to ensure that they enrich our cultures and our economies in the future.”

Summer vacation is upon us and there are a number of summer camps offering local kids all kinds of interesting activities. But before you make your choice, consider Kimberley Summer Theatre’s offering — theatre camp. Kimberley Summer Theatre is once again providing activities for young thespians, this time in collaboration with Lisa Aasebo and her company Creative Monkeys. Aasebo is a Summer Theatre veteran and is appearing in the comedy Self Help this summer. The are two separate week-long sessions provided this year, one for ages six to eight from July 15 to 19 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and one session for nine to 12 year olds from July 22 through 26, same times. The camps will both offer what Aasebo calls the five building blocks of acting; improv, clowning, mask, character study and scene study. “If you’ve ever performed on-stage, you realize there is more to being an actor than just putting on a costume and smiling,” Aasebo

said. The junior group will start with the basics of the ‘Fab Five’, and also enjoy a backstage tour of Kimberley Summer Theatre’s set of ‘Self Help’, complete with a question and answer session with the actors. The older group will delve deeper in the five building blocks, learning proper terms and techniques used by professional actors. Students will create scenes with these techniques and enjoy the same backstage access. Both camps will run out of The Kimberley United Church and Centre 64. Assisting Aasebo will be a couple of local theatre vets who are performing at Fort Steele this summer. Cameron Lomon, a Kimberley native, has performed with KST and now is performing his second summer season at Fort Steele Heritage Town. Craig McCue, a Cranbrook native, is enjoying his third summer performing out at Fort Steele Heritage Town.

Painting with the ‘big guys’ What’s Up? Lona Belle Damstrom recently received an honorable mention for her painting in the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation North America-wide contest K aity Brown Townsman Staff

Local artist Lona Belle Damstrom, from Jaffray, has been recognized across North America as an honorable mention for her wildlife painting. Her painting of an Elk, called “Majestic,” earned her the recognition. Having been involved in art her whole life, particularly wildlife art, Lona Belle Damstrom understands the impact of her achievement. “The most challenging thing is trying to get your name out there,” she said. “I have painted and drawn my whole life — always. I paint from photographs. I either take the photographs myself or I purchase them.” Damstorm said that to be an honorable mention in the RM Elk Foundation annual portfolio contest is a huge achievement. She said that she was in the top 10 out of over 100 entries, one of the six honorable mentions. This is the first time she has entered. “It’s huge,” she said. “I’m painting with the big guys. I’m pretty lucky and I’m really excited. “Basically you’re a starving artist until you can get your name out there.” Damstrom taught decorative art for years, but said that once she had finished that chapter of her life, she concentrated on painting the things that inspired her the most – wildlife. “Well, I think we live in a beautiful, beautiful country. It’s magnificent what we have to paint. I don’t ever have to search for anything to paint because I just have to look outside. That’s what inspired me, the beauty of where we live.” Being involved with the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation contest fit like a glove.

“Majestic,” by Lona Belle Damstrom of Jaffray, recently won an honorable mention in the Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation North America-wide painting competition. Damstrom, passionate about education people on important issues, got to be a part of a North American wide contest from a company that advocates for the protection of elk. “I think it’s wonderful to open everyone’s eyes to what we have. The Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation, that’s what they do. They make it so that they have huge supporters of the elk.” The community of Jaffray is full of talented artists and supporters of the arts, said Damstrom. She herself has some paintings hanging in the First Perk Coffee House

there. “I’m very fortunate. Being in this little town, there are a lot of talented artists. As small as we are there are a lot of us. And getting your name out there is tough. But I do a lot of portrait painting and I’m always doing commissions.” “I’m also inspired by Terry Isaac,” she said. “He’s a wildlife artist. He has helped me a lot in getting myself out there.” For now, Damstrom will paint, paint, paint, aiming for more and more goals, like the Calgary Stampede Art Program and other contests along the way.

About 40 people considered missing in Quebec train disaster; five declared dead Canadian Press

LAC-MEGANTIC, Que. — About 40 people are considered missing after the spectacular blaze and explosions that razed much of Lac-Megantic, increasing the likelihood that the number of fatalities could soar from the current official death toll of five. “I can tell you that we have met a lot of people....and what I can tell you is that about 40 people are considered missing,’’ Quebec provincial police Lt. Michel Brunet told a news conference. It is the first time police have gone public with an estimate since the derailment of a train carrying crude oil triggered Saturday morning’s fatal events. Brunet said two bodies were found overnight and another two on Sunday morning. The first body was discovered Saturday. Police say a higher death toll is inevitable. About 30 buildings were destroyed after tanker cars laden with oil caught fire

shortly after 1 a.m. One of them is the Musi-Cafe bar where dozens of people were enjoying themselves in the wee hours of a glorious summer night. Hampering the search for victims in the charred debris is the fact two of the train’s cars were still burning on Sunday morning, sparking fears of other potentially fatal explosions. The multiple blasts over a span of several hours sent people fleeing as the explosions rocked the popular downtown core in the municipality of 6,000, about 250 kilometres east of Montreal. Throughout the day Sunday, people streamed in and out of the town’s evacuee shelter, which has been set up in a high school about two kilometres from the derailment site. Health-care workers offered services such as psychological counselling, while volunteers handed out snacks and bottled water. Locals shared their experiences from the night of the

blasts. A few people recalled how they darted into the streets after the explosion and ran through the streets alongside neighbours, some wearing nothing but boxer shorts. Others who gathered outside the shelter Sunday hugged and wiped tears as they braced for bad news about unaccounted loved ones. About a third of the community was forced out of their homes. The cause of the accident is believed to be a runaway train, according to the railway’s operator. The president and CEO of Rail World Inc., the parent company of Montreal, Maine & Atlantic Railway, said the train was parked uphill of Lac-Megantic before it became loose and began careening downhill into town. “If brakes aren’t properly applied on a train, it’s going to run away,’’ Edward Burkhardt told The Canadian Press on Saturday. “But we think the brakes were properly applied on this

train.’’ Burkhardt, who indicated he was mystified by the disaster, said the train was parked because the engineer had finished his run. “We’ve had a very good safety record for these 10 years,’’ he said of the decade-old railroad. “Well, I think we’ve blown it here.’’ Witnesses said the eruptions sent many stunned locals darting through the streets under the powerful heat of towering fireballs and a red glow that illuminated the night sky. Between 1,500 and 2,000 people were forced from their homes as authorities set up a wide security perimeter around the town. The perimeter was reduced on Sunday. After the explosions and fire tore through the centre of town, many buildings were gone, almost as if they had vanished. Lines of tall trees in the area looked like giant standing matchsticks, blackened from bottom to tip.

Balance of power, environment key to talks Canada, U.S. can give notice next year if they want changes to Columbia River Treaty

he Columbia River Treaty should be reworked to give environmental concerns equal status with flood control and power generation, the two priorities when Canada and the U.S. implemented the deal almost 50 years ago. So says a draft recommendation from the American side, prepared in anticipation of talks between the two countries on possible modifications to the terms once the threshold for reopening the treaty is reached next year. The seven-page document, the product of public consultations, was released last week by Bonneville Power and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, overseers of the treaty for the U.S. side. “When the treaty was originally drafted in the 1960s, it was designed to provide hydro power and flood risk management as its two primary benefits,” it says. “Since that time, the region has come to increasingly recognize and value the importance of the basin’s ecosystem.” Hence the recommendation for a modernized framework where “ecosystem-based functions will be integrated as a third primary purpose, or benefit, in the same way that hydro power and flood risk management benefits were developed in the original treaty.” The goal being to “restore a healthy Columbia River ecosystem,” particularly fish species that were severely impacted by the management of water levels for the purpose of flood protection and power generation. The peak flows in the river are in the spring and early summer, ideal for salmon in their annual migration from the ocean to spawning grounds. But the maximum power need is in the late fall and winter. So the water is held back, mainly in reservoirs on the Canadian side of the border, and released later in the year. The draft envisions a significant shift in application to the management of water

flows on the river, as per the following recommendations: “Provide stream flows with appropriate timing, quantity, and water quality to promote productive populations of fish, and provide reservoir conditions to promote productive populations of fish and wildlife. “Expand on present treaty agreements to further augment flows for spring and summer, with the recognition that these Vaughn increased flows come from less fall and winter draft in Palmer Canadian reservoirs. “Design and incorporate a dry year strategy ... Design the treaty to be adaptable to meet ecosystem-based function requirements as new information becomes available or conditions change (e.g. climate change) based on the science and management priorities of both countries.” The treaty disrupted the ecosystem in other ways as well, the most obvious being the construction of a series of storage dams in the path of the annual salmon migration. The draft imagines that the two countries might co-operate in rectifying that as well: “Determine Canada’s interest in assessing the feasibility of fish passage on the main stem Columbia to Canadian spawning grounds. If that interest exists, develop a joint program, with shared costs, to analyze that feasibility.” As to how this focus on the ecosystem would affect the original two priorities of the treaty-makers, the draft refers to the need to maintain an “acceptable level of flood risk” defined as “similar to the current level.” There’s also a bit about the need to “maintain co-ordinated hydropower operations, and a reliable, economically sustainable hydropower system in a modernized treaty.” The draft then goes on to suggest that this could be accomplished in part by a major sacrifice on the part of the Canadians.

“The present Columbia River treaty power benefits are not equitably shared,” it argues. “Canada is deriving substantially greater value from co-ordinated power operations than the U.S. For the treaty to be sustainable, the co-ordinated power benefits must be reasonably balanced between the U.S. and Canada.” The reference is to the Canadian entitlement, the amount determined by the treaty to cover our share of the additional power that is generated in the U.S. as a result of co-operative management of water flows on this side of the border. B.C. gets the benefit, lately worth about $200 million a year. So it would not be much of a stretch to interpret the draft as a proposal to keep whole the U.S. interest in flood control while bringing about a shift to greater environmental protection that would be underwritten by a reduction in the cash benefits to Canada. But there should be no cause for panic on this side of the border. Once the 50th anniversary of the treaty is reached next September, then either side has the option of giving 10 years notice of intention to reopen or terminate provisions. Actual changes would not take effect until 2024. Moreover, the aforementioned quotes are taken from a “working draft,” not a final set of recommendations. There is still plenty of disagreement on the U.S. side, noted in the draft, about the right approach to reopening the treaty. As for the Canadian side, BC Hydro is leading a public process on the treaty, with a view to making recommendations to cabinet this fall. But that is a topic for another day. The full U.S. draft is posted at www. crt2014-2024review.gov/.

SPORTS BRIEFS Three Blue Jays named to MLB all-star team

TORONTO - Despite a disappointing first half of the 2013 season, three members of the Toronto Blue Jays have been recognized for their individual accomplishments. Outfielder Jose Bautista, first baseman/designated hitter Edwin Encarnacion and reliever Brett Cecil were named to the American League All-Star team on Saturday and will represent the Blue Jays at New York’s Citi Field on July 16. The game will mark Bautista’s fourth all-star appearance, and his third in the starting lineup, after the slugger beat out Baltimore Orioles right-fielder Nick Markakis for the final starting outfield spot in fan voting. Bautista has 20 home runs and 52 RBIs in 79 games for the Blue Jays, who were big spenders in the off-season but sit last in the AL East with a 42-45 record after Saturday’s 6-0 loss to the Minnesota Twins.

After squeaking into a playoff hole that featured a three-way tie, Kimberley golfer Jared DuToit emerged as the B.C. Junior Boys champion at the Revelstoke Golf Coures. DuToit, trailing by two strokes heading into the final round on Friday, played lights out right to the very end, tying a course record by shooting seven under par for a score of 65. Indeed, his fate came right down to the final hole as he trailed by only a stroke at the time, making an all-important birdie while both co-leaders, Kevin Vigna and Jordan Lu, settled for par which set up the playoff. In front of a crowd of roughly 100 spectators, the three went to work on the 16th hole—a 405 par-4 to settle it all for the championship. Vigna and Lu had trouble with their tee shots, but duToit outdrove both his competitors by 40 yards, placing it right in the middle of the fairway. He put himself just off the green with a wedge on the approach shot, and chipped to within four feet of the pin to putt for par. The tee shots for both Vigna and Lu caused enough problems that made them post a bogey, sealing it up for duToit. Over the course of the tournament, duToit shot 71-68-73-65, and led the field after the

Junior Boys Championship at Revelstoke Golf Club on Friday afternoon. second day. The third round he struggled, and dropped down to fourth, but stormed back on the final round to earn his championship title. After his third round, he came out guns blazing for the final 18 holes, posting three birdies in his first four holes, including the par-5 460 yard opening hole—a feat he accomplished in every single round. “I started out playing well,” said duToit. “I started out birdie-birdie

then kind of scraped around.” “I made only one bogey on five, then carried on to the back nine. Made three birdies and a nice one on 18 to kind of seal the deal and get myself into the playoff.” While duToit put himself into the playoff on the final hole with a birdie, it almost didn’t happen as Vigna and Lu had birdie putts, but couldn’t convert. Vigna had a heartbreaker, as the putt that could’ve

ended it all stopped three inches from the hole. “Kevin put his putt right in the jaws, just short,” said duToit. “I guess that was unfortunate for him, but it worked out well for me and Jordan.” The win for duToit, along with second and third honours for Vigna and Lu, put them onto Team B.C., and they will represent the province at the upcoming Canadian Junior Boys’ Cham-

pionship in Garson, Ontario, at the Timberwolf Golf Club. In addition to duToit’s individual success, a group of local golfers captured the Zone Team competition, while representing Zone One East, beating out seven other areas around the province. The team was made up of Jared duToit, his brother Russell, Scott Merriam of Cranbrook and Evan Gresty of Kimberley.

Murray ends British drought, takes Wimbledon title EDDIE PELLS Associated Press

LONDON - From the lawns of Wimbledon to the lochs of Scotland, all of Britain can celebrate. Andy Murray made it possible Sunday, winning his country’s hallowed tennis tournament to become the first British man in 77 years to raise the trophy at the All England Club. Murray’s 6-4, 7-5, 6-4 victory over top-seeded Novak Djokovic was a fitting close to nearly eight decades of British frustration in its own backyard: A straight-setter, but a hardfought, 3-hour, 9-minute affair

filled with long, punishing rallies and a final game that may have felt like another 77 years, with Murray squandering three match points before finally putting it away after four deuces. Certainly, the endgame must have felt like torture to the 15,000 watching on Centre Court, the thousands more watching on a big-screen TV on the grounds and, of course, the millions of British watching on TV. “Imagine playing it,” Murray said. On a warm, cloudless day on Centre Court, Murray put

his name beside that of Fred Perry, the last British man to win Wimbledon, back in 1936. Those words don’t have to be written again. The second-seeded Murray beat the best in Djokovic, a sixtime Grand Slam winner known for both a mental and physical fitness built to handle what he faced Sunday: A crowd full of overheated partisans cheering against him, to say nothing of Murray himself. “The atmosphere was incredible for him. For me, not so much, but this is what I expected,” Djokovic said. Womens Wimbledon

Marion Bartoli won her first major title on her second attempt with a 6-1, 6-4 victory over Sabine Lisicki on Saturday in the Wimbledon final. Bartoli, a Frenchwoman who lost in the 2007 final at the All England Club, won six straight games to take the first set and five in a row to seize control in the second. Lisicki had some success playing from behind at this year’s tournament, trailing defending champion Serena Williams in the fourth round and Agnieszka Radwanska in the semifinals, but Bartoli gave her few chances this time.

REGINA - Kory Sheets ran 26 times for 133 yards and Chris Milo nailed all four field-goal attempts as the Saskatchewan Roughriders remained undefeated to start the CFL season with a 36-21 win Friday over the Calgary Stampeders. Sheets never went for more than 18 yards on a single rush but put the Roughriders (2-0) ahead for good when he found the end zone from three yards out in the fourth quarter. He had plenty of help on Friday, most notably from slotback Weston Dressler who topped all Riders receivers with an effort that began on Saskatchewan’s opening drive when he caught three passes for 33 yards. Dressler caught a bullet over the middle from quarterback Darian Durant for a 28-yard touchdown in the second quarter and drew a 31-yard pass interference penalty on Calgary linebacker Jonathan Hefney in the fourth quarter that set up Sheets’ go-ahead score.

Rockets pick up Howard with an eye on title run

HOUSTON - Last off-season, the Houston Rockets were an afterthought, a young team with little star power. Now, after trading for James Harden just before this past season and adding Dwight Howard on Friday, Houston is suddenly primed to contend sooner than almost anybody expected. Still, Houston general manager Daryl Morey knows nabbing Howard is only the first step in a long process for his team. “We haven’t accomplished anything yet, but we’re putting something pretty cool together, I think,” Morey said in an interview with Comcast SportsNet Houston. Howard is the Rockets’ latest superstar centre, following Hall of Famer Hakeem Olajuwon and eight-time All-Star Yao Ming. They reached the playoffs for the first time since 2009 this season and battled back from a 3-0 deficit before being eliminated by the Oklahoma City Thunder in Game 6. Associated Press

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your finances could be changing considerably, and for the better, especially if you nix any wild risk-taking.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Detach in order to see the big picture. Be willing to let go of a need to have certain matters go a particular way.

Tonight: Where the action is. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You finally make a decision, but the question remains: Will it hold?

Tonight: Put your feet up. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A key relationship, perhaps one with a child or new friend, will lighten up. You might be wondering what sparked this change. Attempt to move through a problem, but only when the other party seems more willing. Know when to say “no.” Tonight: Be more childlike.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am 15 and the oldest of four boys. During one of many fights between my parents, my mom left the house with my brothers and me, and we spent the night at a shelter. Our grandparents told our father that we have no values because we went with our mom. They say we are old enough to know better. This makes us feel guilty about the fights. Now my grandparents refuse to see us even for our birthdays, because they say we are not loyal to the family and don’t deserve them. Annie, we are losing our family and our grandparents all at once. Our school guidance counselor tells us it’s not our fault, but we feel like outcasts. We are no longer invited to any family events with our cousins. We feel abandoned. -- Scared in Massachusetts Dear Scared: Your grandparents don’t know how to fix the situation with your parents, so they take their frustrations out on you. You are an easy target and can’t fight back. Shame on them. If you have other family members who are not part of this manipulative blackmail, please get closer to them. Otherwise, “family” can mean many things -- including good friends, teachers, neighbors and others who take an interest in your life and are good influences. Lean on them. And continue to talk to your guidance counselor, who obviously understands the problem and can help. Dear Annie: I am a working professional woman in my 50s. For some reason, my dentist, a man in his 30s, calls me “dear.” The first time he did this, I was mortified and didn’t know how to respond to such a condescending remark. I like my dentist. He’s otherwise a competent professional. How do I respond in an appropriate way to this inappropriate manner of addressing me? -- Need To Know in Saskatoon Dear Saskatoon: Let’s give him the benefit of the doubt and assume he addresses all of his patients as “dear,” regardless of age or gender. He probably has no idea that anyone finds it offensive. You need to speak up. The next time he does this, simply say, “I’d prefer that you call me ‘Miss Smith,’” or however you want him to address you. You may need to do this more than once, but we assure you, he’ll eventually get the message. Dear Annie: The letter from “New Yorker” really touched a nerve. When he was 11 years old, he made an insulting comment to his sister’s friend, and his mother keeps bringing it up year after year. He’s now 35. When I was 10, my 5-year-old neighbor stole some silver coins and blamed me. Everyone believed him, including my family. The police were called, and my family had to replace the coins. In the 33 years since, the boy admitted to the theft, and both he and his brother apologized to me. It doesn’t seem to matter to my family, though. I became a New York state trooper, serving honorably and earning many commendations, awards and community accolades. But many family members still bring up this theft and act like I did it. My grandmother is in a nursing home. My brother gave her his old TV, but she didn’t want it, so he took it back. My aunt saw it was missing and said, “Jane probably took it. She likes to steal.” This type of thing bothers me to no end, but I realize I will never be able to change these attitudes. My response varies upon my mood, but my favorite was my reply to my aunt about the stolen TV: “I thought you knew I had to steal to support my drug habit.” Her shocked expression was priceless. -- Not-Guilty Jane Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

extends to the advertiser. Fifty-nine percent of Web users agree that online advertising is more believable from a trusted Web site. Online, newspaper Web sites are the dominant local media site in most markets.

3. Targeted: If you want to focus on a particular backyard, advertising in an online newspaper is more personal, and more relevant because it is local. Newspapers also publish a plethora of niche sites (youth, women, movie fans, seniors, are illustrative) for virtually any demographic advertisers could possibly hope to reach. 4. Purchasing power: Sixty-two percent of newspaper

Web site users purchase online compared with 49 percent of general users. Thirty-nine percent of online newspaper users have incomes higher than $75,000; 65 percent own their homes. Fifty percent of online newspaper users have spent more than $500 online in the last six months, and 63 percent of online newspaper users prefer to find out about new products through the Internet.

5. Content: After e-mail, the most preferred Web

content is news, sports, financial information, entertainment news, and shopping – in that order. Sixtytwo percent of Internet users visit online newspapers for local news, compared with 39 percent for the local TV station Web site and 23 percent for the local radio station site. Not even Yahoo! or AOL’s Digital City can top this.

6. Retailers prefer newspaper sites: Sixty-five percent of retailers report that newspaper sites are efficient in assisting them in meeting marketing needs compared with other sites.

7. High profile: Research.net reports that, among top executives (CEO, CIO, CFO or owner/partner), Internet advertising ranked above over all other media measured for: “Where I prefer to find our about new products,” “Where I prefer to receive information about companies,” and “Where modern, up-to-date brands advertise.” At the same time, these early adopters of technology also skew younger than the traditional newspaper audience. Forty percent of online newspaper users are aged 18-35. 8. Reinforcement: Seventy-six percent of online newspaper users also read the newspaper in the past seven days, and repetition increases awareness. The Internet Advertising Bureau found that, by increasing the number of online banners from one to two per week, branding results on three key metrics increased 42 percent making online a great, inexpensive way to increase the branding lift of traditional campaigns. 9. Quality: Seventy-five percent of advertisers generally said newspaper Web sites’ advertising was as good or better than other Internet sites.

10. Mix: A variety of recent studies have demonstrated the power of online, when included in a mix with traditional media, to elaborate the brand message. Newspaper print and online products combined have the highest penetration and most desirable audience of any other local medium. SOURCE: Newspaper Association of America
