Camping trip turns into river rescue ARNE PETRYSHEN Townsman Staff

A camping trip quickly became a rescue mission for a group up the Gray Creek Pass. The five-person group, which included Cranbrook resident

Mike Krahn and four of his friends, were cutting wood near their camp, when a man came running up the road. “We were about two kilometres up the Gray Creek Pass where you come off the St. Mary’s

road,” he said. “We were cutting up some wood and when we shut our saws off, we could hear somebody screaming ‘help’.” The frantic man and his three vehicle passengers had driven

across Redding Creek earlier but got stuck in the middle of the raging creek on the way back. The man had managed to swim, fighting the current, to the bank then ran about a couple of kilometres to get to

the campsite. So the group hopped into their side-by-sides with the man and he led them up the road about nine kilometres and then down an old skidder trail that takes you to Redding Creek.

Krahn said he’d been down the trail before and so was not expecting things to be good. “We get down there and we can see where the alders open up to the river and sure enough there’s a pickup sitting about 40 feet into the water, halfway across the river,” he said. The truck was facing them and leaning hard downriver, being

pushed by the strong current. Water was flowing over the hood. On top of the truck were the three other passengers, who said they could feel the truck shifting back and forth from the water’s force. The group anchored the side-by-sides near the water and used a winch line.

B.C. considers Bountiful charges SAL LY MACD ON AL D Townsman Staff

The RCMP has handed over a report on the polygamous community near Creston to B.C.’s Criminal Justice Branch. Now independent special prosecutor Peter Wilson will examine the report and determine whether criminal charges should be laid

against people connected to Bountiful. Possible charges could relate to sexual exploitation and other alleged offences against minors by people associated with Bountiful between the early 1980s and today. Wilson could also recommend charges of polygamy.

Fish hatchery hosting anniversary party This Saturday marks 10 years since the creation of the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC at the Kootenay Trout Hatchery K aity Brown

This Saturday, July 13, there will be a funpacked party celebrating the 10th anniversary of the Freshwater Fisheries Society of B.C. at the Kootenay Trout Hatchery. The Freshwater Fisheries Society is a private non-profit organization dedicated to preserving fresh water fish. They create programs for the public to learn environmental protection and fishing heritage and techniques. The Kootenay Hatchery has been running since 1965 and is responsible for stocking 130 to 150 lakes in the Kootenays as well as preserving endangered species. “Our mandate is to provide some of the best freshwater recreational fishing in the province, if not Canada,” said Cathy Fiedler of the hatchery. “We also raise fish for conservation which happens to be the white sturgeon right now.” On top of that, the society strives to teach youth about the importance of preserving the environment and how fish play into the ecosystem.

“We look at it as a way to get families together so that they can enjoy each other’s company and they can be outdoors.” The hatchery offers a lot of educational programs as well as handson programs where the public can go and learn to fish. “It’s something that a grandpa can be just as good at as a kid can,” Fiedler said. “You don’t have to go out and spend a fortune and you don’t have to be an athlete.” Saturday’s anniversary party will be swimming with activities: kids’ zone, guided tours, fun games and activities, live fish races, feeding the moat fish, live music, barbeques, sushi, demonstrations of fly-tying and volunteers helping kids fish. Guest speakers such as Mainstream Environmental WildSafeBC and Bear Aware will be there to educate about protecting the environment. The event goes from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. at the Kootenay Hatchery, 4522 Fenwick Road, Fort Steele, B.C. For more information call 250-429-3214

Special prosecutor considers charges The RCMP has given a “substantial volume” of material from its investigation into polygamous community of Bountiful to the Criminal Justice Branch ber of months before charges could be laid. Before charges are laid, Wilson must be confident that there is a substantial likelihood of conviction, and that a prosecution is in the public’s interest. The RCMP has been investigating plural marriages in Bountiful for nearly two decades. In 2009, two Bountiful leaders, Winston Blackmore and James Oler, were charged with

Concert cancelled after front man collapses Cranbrook concert promoters offer refunds, apologies to disappointed Nazareth fans

S a l ly M ac D o n a l d Townsman Staff

Concert promoters are offering profuse apologies after the Nazareth concert in Cranbrook came to an abrupt end on Tuesday, July 9, almost as soon as it began. The Scottish hard rock band was set to begin its western Canadian tour at the Cranbrook Curling Centre on Tuesday night, but 30 seconds into the first song, front

man Dan McCafferty collapsed on stage, requiring urgent medical attention. The rest of the concert was cancelled. The band was 90 minutes late coming to the stage; set to begin at 9:30 p.m., the first song wasn’t played until 11 p.m. Now concert promoters HM Productions, run by Cranbrook locals Isaac Hockley and Jody McInnes, are handing

out refunds and offering apologies to disappointed concertgoers. “We just want to apologize to everybody who came out to support us. You can get your money back; all you’ve got to do is bring your ticket stubs in to Bridge Interiors,” Hockley told the Townsman on Wednesday. Some concertgoers were angry that the concert was cancelled, but Hockley said it was completely out of pro-

moters’ control. “We’ve got to remember we’re talking about a person here. Number one is his safety,” he said. McCafferty, 66, suffered a lung problem on stage Tuesday night, Hockley explained. He collapsed because he wasn’t getting enough air. “He is stable. We’re not sure what’s going on with the rest of the tour; that hasn’t been disclosed yet,” said

Hockley. The band was set to perform in Whitecourt, Alberta, on Thursday, July 11. HM Productions is committed to providing refunds for everybody with a ticket stub. “All of the people are getting their money back, 100 per cent. That’s the first thing on the list, and we’re going to take the hit from it,” Hockley said. The promoters will lose money from the

event, he went on, and they won’t be able to bring any bands to Cranbrook for a few months. “We want to make sure everybody understands that we’re taking a really big hit here. It’s a contract; we pay a deposit to have Nazareth here. We get them and whatever happens after that, that’s what happens,” said Hockley, adding that promoters have other expenses such as sound,

facility rental and insurance. “After this hit, we have to go back to our other jobs. Our company is in the minus now. “We are going to take a couple of months, make some money with our other companies, and come back in full force,” he said. Nazareth concertgoers with a ticket stub can go to Bridge Interiors, 125 Slater Road, Cranbrook for a refund.

Campers rescue three stranded in raging creek altogether for 10 to 15 minutes and I couldn’t feel anything below my waist,” he said. After the three had been rescued, they took them back to camp, got them dry clothes and warmed up, then one of the campers drove them back to town. “When we went back

there the next day, (the truck) had moved about three feet. It didn’t have far to go to flip over because there was a big hole,” Krahn said. The truck was later pulled out, he said.

Krahn said the gravity of the situation didn’t hit them until later that night after the rescue, when they were back at camp. The man who ran from the rescue site had

The City of Kimberley, Teck Resources Limited and the EcoSmart Foundation Inc. are collaborating on the development of the SunMine, the first industrial grid-connected solar energy plant in British Columbia, proposed on the site of the former Sullivan mine in Kimberley. The project is now entering the detailed engineering phase to establish the final design, full costing and scheduling. Engineering consultants, suppliers and contractors are invited to submit an expression of interest outlining their qualifications for providing goods and services to the SunMine project. A Request For Qualifications (RFQ) will be used to pre-qualify interested parties to participate in a subsequent Request For Proposals (RFP). If the design and costs are favorable to the project budget and objectives, the project will move to implementation. This phased process is designed to assure sound, fiscally responsible decisions.

and That Means Money!!

The potential outcomes of SunMine include generation of clean energy, effective use of a mine site post-mine closure, creation of jobs and business opportunities, fostering research and development, and training of highly qualified personnel. A modified competition process will maximize opportunities for western suppliers; promoting access to new technologies, business innovation, and participation of western companies in global supply chains.

High water levels hampered search efforts but a police dog located the body in a heavily wooded area approximately 10 kilometres downstream on July 4. The water had risen considerably since the disappearance; the water receded and the body was located on the shore line in amongst logs and other debris. Search efforts continue to find Hoefnagels, using a police dog and RCMP helicopter. Findlay Creek flows into the Kootenay River south of Canal Flats and police are asking recreational users of the rivers to contact police if they see anything.

Local NEWS Search and Rescue finds missing boater unharmed Ta m a r a Hyn d Fernie Free Press

Fernie Search and Rescue (FSAR) were called out at 1:30 a.m. on July 4 to look for a missing fisherman on Lake Koocanusa. The 85-year-old man had been due back at 8 p.m. at his camp at Surveyor’s Lake on Wednesday. When he failed to show up, his camp mates called 911 to alert the RCMP of the missing man. RCMP officers searched sections of

the lake in the dark and were joined by search and rescue members from Fernie and Kimberley at 6:30 a.m. to continue the search. A helicopter from Ascent Helicopters assisted the search, and the man’s boat was rapidly located. RCMP officers boarded the vessel to discover the occupant in good health and unaware of the search he had caused by choosing to spend the night out without alerting his

friends. “SAR has been extremely busy over the past two weeks with one call-out every two days on average. Four of the call-outs were all-day missions and one was all night,” said FSAR Manager Simon Piney. Piney added, “As a voluntary group this puts a lot of demands on our members – we are lucky to have so many people willing to put their lives on hold to help others.”

Kimberley adopts flood plain bylaw C AR O LYN G RAN T

A bylaw governing construction in Kimberley flood plains has been adopted by City Council. The flood plain area encompasses the Morrison Subdivision, which has flooded regularly in recent years during the spring runoff. Flooding was severe

in 2012, while in 2013 waters rose then receded in a day. A number of regulations have been put in place to govern construction below the Flood Construction Level (from 1129 to 1133 metres). “The bylaw defines what the flood plain is and the type of construction and set backs

in place,” said Coun. Jack Ratcliffe. “Unfortunately, the key thing here is that all the structures in there are non-conforming.” The bylaw will govern new construction only. Ratcliffe says current structures cannot be grandfathered into the bylaw.

ME MYSELF AND I

Tyranny of the personal pronoun “Be obscure clearly.”

F

E.B. White

or possibly hundreds of years, our mother stopped my sister and me from using the word “me”. She was concerned that we’d be egoists and thus make fools of ourselves and, in fact, we did just that. If anyone in those days had asked, “Who’s there?” we’d have answered, “It’s I,” which, of course is correct but sounds daft. School never really sorted out this grammatical stupidity because, in those days, nobody taught English grammar. We were supposed to soak it all in by reading ‘good’ literature and thus absorbing the grammar as we went. The trouble was: we had to read Milton, who wrote, “Methinks I see her as an eagle …” and Willy Shakespeare who went on about “Montague, as well as I, is bound in penalty alike…” and this confused the heck out of us ignoramuses. In fact, it was our long-suffering French, German and Latin teachers who were forced to straighten out us louts. Why, even some of the Frenchmen like Descartes wrote in Latin so that they didn’t have to remember the French “je and me” nonsense. He wrote “cogito ergo sum” without mentioning “ego” and that left the English to decide whether he meant “I” or “me,” the coward.

Just after getting Cleopatra pregnant, Julius Caesar sneaked off to elsewhere in the Middle East where he wrote home saying, “Veni, vidi, vici.” This was a good way to boast of his prowess without actually saying “I.” Not like the Tarzan of my youth, who proclaimed on film, “Me Tarzan; you Jane.” It was difficult not to emulate him. Then I discovered that Peter the Spanish speakers too around, like their Warland sneaked Latin forebears, and dropped personal pronouns like “I.” I loved that fact when I first invaded Mexico and there left many locals stunned with my rhetoric. The trouble is: having been a school teacher for aeons, I keep hearing folk making mistakes in their speech and I am forced to “sit on my hands” and shut up, most of the time. I realize, of course, that I too make grammatical faux pas and, if both my computer and editor miss them, they sneak into my columns. Then, usually, some genius with too much time on his or her hands spots them immediately and gleefully points them out to me. Anyway, the rules are simple: If you’re the doer, say “I”; if you’re the receiver, say “me”; and if you wish to emphasise things, say “myself.” That is all that there is to it but, if and when you get it right, you’ll sound soft in the head.

Try this test if you’ve got nothing better to do in your miserable life. You are driving a tad too fast downtown and a police officer pulls you over. He leans over and peers through your window and asks, “In a hurry?” You, with an astonished look on your face, reply, “Who (I, me, myself ), officer? He says, “(I, me, myself ) spotted you doing over a hundred in a school zone.” Quickly, you swear, “Not (I, me, myself ), officer. (I, me, myself ) pride (I, me, myself ) on taking inordinate care with my driving downtown.” The officer straightens his back and hitches up his gun-belt and says, “What do you think (I, me, myself ) am? (I, me, myself ) am not blind. (I, me, myself ) and my partner over there clocked you doing well over ninety and, what is more, you were yakking away on a cell-phone at the same time. (I, me, myself ) am booking you with speeding, using a cell phone whilst in motion, and obstructing (I, me, myself ) in my duties.” Then you snap back, “Bet when you’re not working, you’re no better than (I, me, myself.)” Try to correctly assess the right word in each case and then send your answers in a stamped, self-addressed envelope to The Egocentric Society care of the Daily Townsman or the Bulletin. If you get this right, you’ll receive a Stanley Cup puck signed by Sir John A. Macdonald, who always got the “I, me and myself” correct.

Fiona McIntyre plays Bernice, the air-headed broken-record twitchy maid, who serves as the scapegoat for the Savages’ stress. Brent Gill is Detective Snow, the to-thepoint velvety-voiced cop who persistently has a quizzical look on his face. Despite his reputation, we soon and abruptly find out his life is falling apart at the seams. Jeremy Verkley plays Jeremy “Cold Hard” Cash, a cold-hearted conniving investigative journalist looking for something to bring the Savages down. But it is not just your typical farce, hinging on repeated wry jokes or slapstick. It’s layered, with sobering comments that sting. Its complicated web of relation-

ships reflects the more shadowy consequences of fame. It shows the unethical actions of an investigative journalist and the gullible nature of the public in a meek maid who has memorized every line of a fake self-help novel written by two greedy actors. Will the Savages finally find happiness with their new over-privileged life? Some of the wit is unparalleled, with laughable irony and word-slips that are just too perfect. “Self Help” is playing at Centre 64 in Kimberley nightly at 7:30 from July 9 to July 27 with matinees on Wednesdays and Saturdays at 2 p.m. Tickets can be ordered by phone at 250-427-4080, bought at Centre 64 in advance or purchased at the door.

Summer reading challenge

A nightmare he can’t wake up from Why is it that you notice your surroundings so much more if you are reading a book instead of watching television? I sat outside on the patio with my book and a beverage this week, sipping and reading and sunbathing. It was so glorious and it reminded me so much of summer holidays when I was a kid. I don’t know why, but reading seems to heighten your senses, while TV dulls them. ***

o you know that dream where it is really, really important that you do something, yet you just seem to do the opposite anyway? That was the feeling I had throughout this book, and I didn’t really like it. “Don’t Go” by Lisa Scottoline follows podiatric surgeon Dr. Mike Scanlon during two eventful years of his life. He and his wife Chloe have just had a baby girl, Emily, when he finds out he is being deployed as an army surgeon to Afghanistan for a year. Mike and Chloe wrestle with the harsh reality, and the time apart is hard to handle for both of them. Mike doesn’t know quite how hard it is for Chloe until it’s too late.

he farce “Self Help,” by playwright Norm Foster, is full to the brim with wry humour, Freudian slips, quickand-dirty decisions and get-rich-quick schemes. The hilarious, snappy and witty play is directed by Tanya Laing Gahr and produced by Tony James. The plot revolves around actors Cindy and Hal Savage, ridiculously short of cash, who decide to break free of their old lives, trading them in for flashy, phony new roles as self help “experts.” Soon they have it all — fans that worship the ground they walk on, money coming in faster than they can spend it. But their new lives also attract some unwanted attention. Journalists and detectives lurk outside their door at the most inopportune time – the gardener has gone missing and Mr. and Mrs. Savage are caught right in the middle of it. Trishia Woodley plays Cindy Savage, the woman who shuffles between spoiled childlike tantrums (‘I want it NOW’) and honest bouts of guilt and regret for her phony life advice. Stuart Fink is Hal Savage, the lanky cutand-dry, equally-as-greedy husband to Cindy. He’s bold and loud, quick-tempered and grudge-holding, paranoid and rash-natured, but with a soft and sensitive underbelly. Lisa Aasebo plays Ruby Delvecchio, the take-charge leopard-print-wrapped agent you’ve always wanted. She’s a sassy and sharp no-nonsense gal with a dash of the

sally macdonald One month from the end of his term, Mike gets shocking news at the end of a harsh day of saving soldiers’ limbs and lives. Chloe has died in a household accident. While her sister Danielle was minding the baby, Chloe was doing the dishes when she accidently cut herself with a knife. Alone for the afternoon, an unconsious Chloe bleeds to death, unable to wake up because of the alcohol in her system; she had become an alcoholic because of her failure to cope without Mike. Just as Chloe is about to drift away, an unnamed person walks through the front door, sees Chloe dying, yet turns and leaves. It’s the end for her. We pick up Mike’s story

from this point onward, as he rushes home to bury his wife, pack up his home, and figure out who is going to care for his baby daughter while he returns to Afghanistan. Through naivety, grief and emotional trauma, Mike makes a series of poor decisions during that brief visit home. Matters are only made worse when he returns to the war. A series of events have already been set in motion, and he is powerless to stop them. Lisa Scottoline, a lawyer who left the workforce and began writing after her daughter was born, has written 13 bestsellers, including 1994’s

“Final Appeal”, which was named Best Paperback Original Mystery with the Edgar Award. The author has clearly done a lot of research in writing this novel, on podiatry, on combat, on veterans’ experiences, and on family law. Sometimes it seems like her efforts to make sure the facets of the story are factually correct get in the way of the story itself. I had a lot of trouble connecting with the character. I had a great deal of sympathy for him, for the tragedies that befall him, and for his difficulty coping with those tragedies. But I also found it hard to understand why he was doing many things, even knowing how his experiences were affecting him. I never knew what he was going to do next, and I couldn’t tell whether his poor decisions were going to have positive or negative impacts. That seemed to depend purely on the stage of story development we were in at the time. That said, this is an enthralling mystery, a captivating page-turner, and an interesting exploration of the sacrifices soldiers make in serving their country.

Moir Park to host soccer camps TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Cranbrook soccer community will be experiencing a British invasion next week, when the Moir Park soccer fields host a summer camp organized by Kootenay East Youth Soccer Association (KEYSA). KEYSA has teamed up with Challenger Sports, a soccer company that organizes camps across North America, to run a week-long session from July 15-19th, which will act, in part, as a fundraiser for the local organization. The camp will feature a British coach flown to Canada exclusively to work with soccer programs, while coach Jamie Harrison, who has worked all season with KEYSA, will be leading the whole event. The camp will include more that just work on skills and drills. Though there is a daily component of foot skill development, technical

and tactical practices, each child will be taught lessons on respect, responsibility, integrity, leadership and sportsmanship. Arguably the most popular part of each camp is the Camp World Cup, a daily mini-tournament that the coaches use to teach players about life, customs and traditions of other countries. Campers are asked to make up cheers, bring flags, dress up and learn as much as they can about the country they represent. Camp spots are available for kids anywhere from 4-18 years of age, with costs ranging from $104 to $189. Each camper receives a free t-shirt, a soccer ball and an individual skills performance evaluation. Anyone wishing to sign up for the camp can visit www.challengersports.com or contact Barb Eckersley at 250420-1595 or email beckersley@cyberlink.bc.ca.

HOCKEY HALL OF FAME

Niedermayer to join legends at Hall of Fame

Cranbrook product will be with a ‘neat group of people’ for induction ceremony in November TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

It’s been a day but the feeling of being a Hall of Fame hockey player for Cranbrook native Scott Niedermayer is still sinking in. The retired NHL defenceman is currently on vacation in Vancouver Island when he got the call on Tuesday, where he was informed that he would be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in November. “It’s kind of hard to believe when you do get a call like that, knowing who’s in the Hall of Fame, even looking at this year’s inductees as well, some obviously pretty darned good hockey players and people that have been real good for the game of hockey,” said Niedermayer, in a phone interview on Wednesday. “To be put in the same breath as those kinds of people is pretty amazing.”

“That in itself is crazy, just how fortunate I’ve been and part of teams that had success and being part of those groups, I was pretty lucky.” Scott Niedermayer Joining Niedermayer in Tuesday’s announcement by the Hockey Hall of Fame was defenceman Chris Chelios and power forward Brendan Shanahan, along with Team Canada rearguard Geraldine Heaney and coach Fred Shero. Both Chelios and Shanahan have remained with the NHL in different roles; Chelios is an executive advisor to Detroit Red Wings GM Ken Holland, while Shanahan has the high-profile role of being the league’s disciplinarian. Niedermayer, who won an Olympic gold medal with Shanahan as a teammate in the

MURRAY MITCHELL, KAMLOOPS DAILY NEWS

Scott Niedermayer answers questions at a press conference before his former major-junior team, the Kamloops Blazers, retired his jersey at a ceremony back in January. 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, heaped praise on his fellow inductees. Both [Shanahan and Chelios] were real tough to play against,” said Niedermayer. “Obviously both had a lot of skill, but neither of them minded the physical part of the game and using that to gain an advantage. “….Definitely looked up to those guys as a couple of the best players in the league when I was playing and to go into the Hall with a group like that, as well as Geraldine, a great hockey player in her own right, and the late Fred Shero—a pretty neat group of people.” Looking through Niedermayer’s 18-year career in professional hockey with the New Jersey Devils and Anaheim Ducks, one will notice a player who has won pretty much everything there is to win at every level. The Cranbrook product has earned four Stanley Cup championships, two Olympic gold medals, a World Championship, a World Cup, a World Junior Champi-

onship, and a Memorial Cup. He won the James Norris Memorial Trophy as NHL Defenceman of the Year in 2004 and the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP in 2007 when he captured his final Stanley Cup alongside his brother, Rob, with the Anaheim Ducks. “That in itself is crazy, just how fortunate I’ve been and part of teams that had success and being part of those groups, I was pretty lucky,” said Niedermayer.

“…I’ve had a pretty fortunate ride, and that’s probably why I ended up getting the call yesterday [Tuesday] morning, because I was a part of those groups, I benefited from teammates and coaches and managers and all those

teams.” The two brothers began playing hockey in the Cranbrook minor system which eventually blossomed into impressive major-junior and professional careers. “It really started right from the time I laced up my skates in Cranbrook, benefitting from, obviously, my mom and dad and the sacrifices and time and effort that they put in to my brother and I,” said Niedermayer, “driving us around, hotels and tournaments and all those things that parents do and I’m sort of on the other end of that now with my own kids, learning what that’s all about.” Scott went to the Kamloops Blazers in 1989 and stayed there for three years, tallying 190 points over 156 regular season games, before moving up to the NHL. Rob went east to Medicine Hat, joining the Tigers in 1990 and enjoying three campaigns with the club before following his brother to the pros. Niedermayer was drafted third overall by the New Jersey Devils in

the 1991 NHL Entry Draft, while Rob went fifth overall to the Florida Panthers two years later. Niedermayer retired from hockey in 2010, but remained with the Ducks as a consultant to general manager Bob Murray. Last January, Niedermayer shifted to an assistant coaching role, watching games from above rather than behind the bench. “It’s going good, they’ve been very accommodating in allowing me to take it at my own pace,” said Niedermayer. “The first two years, I was very much part time, watching some games and doing some development work and this last year—a shortened year obviously with the lockout—I was doing some coaching at home, I didn’t have to travel, I did go on one or two little short trips. “I enjoyed that as well and I’m probably going to do that again, and I don’t have any big plans or long-term goals with that. I’m enjoying what I’m doing that now and I’ll give it another shot next year.”

Sports Oilers acquire Perron from Blues for Paajarvi, pick Stephen Whyno Canadian Press

When David Perron returned to game action in December 2011 after missing 13 months with a concussion, he produced like he had never left. And though his points dropped this past season, Perron was still an effective offensive performer for the St. Louis Blues. Now Perron could get a chance to add even more on offence after being traded to the Edmonton Oilers for Magnus Paajarvi and a second-round pick. In Edmonton, the 25-yearold will be part of a young core of skilled players along with Taylor Hall, Jordan Eberle, Sam Gagner, Ryan Nu-

gent-Hopkins and Nail Yakupov. “There’s a ton of players with a lot of skills,” Perron said in a phone interview. “I think it’s a real nice fit for me. It’s that type of game that I want to play that I feel like I got to the NHL that way, and that’s how I’ll have the most success.” Perron had 10 goals and 15 assists in 48 games last season, doing so in a more conservative system under coach Ken Hitchcock. Blues general manager Doug Armstrong believes Perron can thrive in any system, but the Oilers’ one might fit particularly well. “He’s a guy who has a skill set that’ll be better suited to playing the

game the way that we want to play the game,” Oilers GM Craig MacTavish said in a radio interview with AM-630 in Edmonton. “There’s going to be more attack opportunities, more rush opportunities. “This guy has potentially one of the best set of hands in the league.” Perron is expected to play left wing with the Oilers and will be counted on to kill penalties and help out on the offensive end, as well. In 340 games with the Blues, he had 84 goals and 114 assists. “I think that David, he’s a dynamic player, and he has an unbelievable skill-set that sometimes takes a little bit of time to get used to playing with ... for his team-

mates to get to understand his nuances,” Armstrong said on a conference call. Perron has three more years left on his contract that counts just over US$3.8 million against the salary cap. The Blues need to free up space to sign restricted-free-agent defenceman Alex Pietrangelo, but Armstrong said the deal had more to do with diversifying at forward. “(How) our team is situated right now we have a number of players about the same size and about the same stature,” Armstrong said, referring to Vladimir Tarasenko, Ty Rattie, Dmitrij Jaskin and Jaden Schwartz. “For us to bring in a six-foot-

three, 210-pound left-winger that we think is just starting to understand his potential, he’s 22 years old, one of the areas we wanted to try to improve was our speed, and I think that bringing in Paajarvi is going to help that.” Paajarvi had nine goals and seven assists in 42 games for the Oilers last season. He’s a restricted free agent, but Armstrong said he liked that the Blues had the young winger’s rights for the next four years. “We view him coming in and competing in our group of nine,” Armstrong said. “We’ve had nine forwards that are interchangeable and (coach Ken Hitchcock) has used them as interchangeable parts play-

ing different guys with different players. Our team is built on balance and we think he has an opportunity to come in here and provide an element that we don’t have right now.” In Perron, the Oilers get a more polished NHL player than they have in Hall, Eberle, Nugent-Hopkins and Yakupov. MacTavish singled out Perron’s willingness to go to the dirty areas to score goals, but acquiring a six-foot playmaker doesn’t do anything to add physicality to the mix of skill already in Edmonton. “We’re a team that really is pretty far down the path of playing a more skill, puck-possession game, a team that has to rely on quickness

more so than bulk,” MacTavish told the Oilers’ website. “We’re a team that’s got to play quick.” Perron fits there. MacTavish expressed some concern over the concussion that cost Perron over a year of his career, but playing 57 games the rest of the 2011-12 season and all 48 this season went a long way to assuaging any fears. But this was a trade of need for need. The Oilers got more experienced, while the Blues got a player with perhaps some more potential. “It’s a good deal for both teams, at least that’s what Craig and I both hope,” Armstrong said.

Blue Jays get past Indians 5-4 Associated Press

CLEVELAND Munenori Kawasaki hit a two-run single with the bases loaded in the ninth inning and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Cleveland Indians 5-4 Wednesday night. Kawasaki, who broke an 0-for-18 slump, lined a 1-2 pitch from Joe Smith into left-centre field to score two runs. A third run scored when centre fielder Michael Bourn booted the ball for an error. Colby Rasmus drew a one-out walk off Rich Hill (0-1). After Maicer Izturis flied out, J.P. Arencibia was announced to bat for Josh Thole. Joe Smith relieved Hill but Arencibia singled and Emilio Bonifacio walked to load the bases. Kawasaki fell behind in the count but came up with the clutch hit Toronto’s struggling offence has needed. Neil Wagner (2-3) struck out Ryan Raburn with the bases loaded to end the eighth after the Indians tied the game. Casey Janssen allowed two runs in the ninth

before Steve Delabar retired Michael Brantley on a fly ball for his first major league save. Indians starter Justin Masterson took a twohit shutout into the seventh but Bonifacio’s two-run single put the Blue Jays ahead. The Indians tied the game in the eighth off All-Star reliever Brett Cecil on Brantley’s RBI single. Following Nick Swisher’s walk, Brantley’s hard-hit ground ball shot past shortstop Jose Reyes and into centre field, tying the game. Carlos Santana lined a single to left but Swisher was forced to stop at third and the bases were loaded. When Raburn was announced to hit for Jason Giambi, Toronto manager John Gibbons called on Wagner to replace Cecil. Raburn struck out to end the inning. Asdrubal Cabrera’s two-out single and Kawasaki’s throwing error in the ninth cut the lead to 5-4 but Delabar recorded the final out.

Legal issues surround thorny MLB drug probe Ronald Blum Associated Press

NEW YORK - We may never know exactly what Alex Rodriguez and Ryan Braun are being accused of in Major League Baseball’s Biogenesis investigation - if they beat the rap. That’s because details likely will be caught in a tangle of legal gymnastics involving MLB, the players’ union and probably an arbitrator, who could rule no discipline is warranted. Lengthy proceedings make it nearly a certainty most, if not all, suspensions would be served in 2014. Among the early legal issues: Does the commissioner’s office have the right to announce any suspensions before grievances are decided by an arbitrator? Can a player not previously disciplined under the drug agreement be suspended for more than 50 games be-

cause of multiple violations? Three people familiar with the investigation said if management and the union can’t agree on the process, arbitrator Fredric Horowitz likely would be asked to decide. The people spoke on condition of anonymity because no public statements were authorized. MLB has spent most of the year investigating about 20 players for their links to Biogenesis of America, including A-Rod and Braun, both former MVPs. Miami New Times reported in January that the closed Florida anti-aging clinic had distributed banned performance-enhancing drugs to major leaguers. Lawyers for the commissioner’s office have been interviewing players and many, including Braun, have refused to answer questions about their dealings with Biogenesis, the three people said.

Braun was interviewed in late June, and Rodriguez is scheduled to be interviewed Friday. Braun and Rodriguez have said they didn’t do anything that merits discipline. The players’ refusal to respond to MLB’s questions were first reported by ESPN and the New York Daily News. MLB hopes to complete the player interviews in mid-July but is not sure whether it will meet that schedule. Management then will have to decide what discipline it intends to impose. Baseball’s joint drug agreement calls for a 50-game suspension for a first offence, 100 games for a second and a lifetime ban for a third. Among the players linked to Biogenesis, Toronto’s Melky Cabrera, Oakland’s Bartolo Colon and San Diego’s Yasmani Grandal have served 50-game penalties following positive testosterone

tests. The drug agreement specifies that if a suspension for a first PED offence is challenged by the union, the violation is not made public unless the penalty is sustained in arbitration. However, discipline for second and third offences are announced and served while the grievance is litigated.

There also is a provision stating “the commissioner’s office may publicly announce the discipline of a player if the allegations relating to a player’s violation of the program previously had been made public through a source other than the commissioner’s office or a club” or their employees. The sides or the arbitrator

will have to decide whether the media accounts of Biogenesis are covered by that clause. Each player’s case probably will be handled in a separate arbitration, which could slow down the process while the sides secure dates before Horowitz or agree to retain other arbitrators.

The three players who already have served suspensions also may claim they can’t be penalized under a provision prohibiting multiple disciplines for the same use. In addition, they can’t be penalized for conduct that took place before they were given notice of their positive drug test.

Toronto Raptors officially trade Andrea Bargnani to New York Knicks C anadian Press

TORONTO - The Toronto Raptors have confirmed the trade that will send Andrea Bargnani to the New York Knicks. “Trade w/ @knicks is done,” the team said via Twitter. The deal was reported more than a week ago but could not be officially completed until Wednesday. In return, the Raptors receive Knicks reserves Steve Novak, Marcus Camby and Quentin Richardson. The Knicks are also

sending the Raptors a 2016 firstround pick and second-round picks in 2014 and 2017. Bargnani is coming off an injury-shortened season that was his worst since his second year in the league, and had become a lightning rod for a struggling Toronto team that missed the playoffs this past season for the fifth year in a row. The Raptors attempted to trade Bargnani this past season before two significant elbow injuries derailed any serious interest. The puzzling Italian cen-

Kaslo hears plan to keep cheetahs Kirsten Hildebr and Nelson Star

A

couple with close ties to Kaslo is considering bringing their two cheetahs to the north Kootenay Lake community in hopes of expanding its tourism base while helping an endangered species. Earl Pfeifer and Carol Plato own Kane Manor in Kaslo and a few years ago when it was saved from fire by neighbours and the fire department, the couple realized how truly special Kaslo is. “We couldn’t get over how fortunate we were to live in such a wonderful, caring community,” said Pfeifer. “We often talked about finding ways to give back to the town.” On the evening of June 28 about 40 people attended a presentation made at the Legion Hall in Kaslo to hear about the couple’s idea of bringing their two cheetahs, now living with them in their second home near Toronto, to town. “If we were to build this business back home it would mean a Kaslo business would be offering services that cannot be found anywhere else in North America and that uniqueness could be extremely beneficial for Kaslo,” said Pfeifer. Needing Kaslo’s support to gain necessary permits, the couple is being proactive in the endeavour that is still likely years away from realization. The most difficult milestone of their cheetah project has been achieved, however. And that is actually getting cheetahs, a “class one highly endangered cat.” “They are virtually impossible for all but

large zoos to import,” says Pfeifer. “The good news is that on March 28, after two years of work and against all odds, we became the owners of two African cheetahs.” As far as the retired couple knows, they are the only private owners of cheetahs in Canada. In Ontario, there are few laws regarding ownership of exotic animals. “The two cats are wonderful,” described Pfeifer. They have a oneyear-old female named Annie Rose and a ninemonth old named Robin, who was sired by one of the most famous cheetahs in Africa. “Right now we are working seven days a week socializing and training the cats.” Pfiefer describes cheetahs as the original “fraidy cat.” There is no record of a wild cheetah killing a human in the 4,000 years since Egyptians first started keeping the cats captive, he said. Today, there are fewer than 10,000 cheetahs left in the world and their numbers are declining by nearly 1,000 per year due to loss of habitat and farmers being able to kill them. “By the time a child entering J.V. Humphries school this fall is 15, the chances of him being able to ever see a cheetah in the wild will be almost zero,” said Pfeifer. The couple understands the hurdles they will have to jump to bring their cheetah program to Kaslo. But Plato says they are committed to doing what’s best for the community and their cats. “We’re passionately committed to helping

save them from extinction, and our resolve is strengthened by knowing that whatever troubles we face, they are nothing compared to the difficulties cheetahs face,” she said. “Hassles, battles, legal issues, current emptying of our bank account and future decimation of our life savings — really — they’re nothing compared to extinction.” Kaslo Mayor Greg Lay attended the presentation last month and commends the couple on being innovative and proactive. He heard of the four programs the couple hopes to offer: cheetah walks that would allow people to walk a cat on a leash; cheetah pursuit training where people would watch cheetahs run at high speeds; cheetah outreach and educational programs and cheetah encounters that would allow people to have their picture taken while being up close and personal with a cheetah. Lay says council hasn’t made an official decision and while regulations are fuzzy, he supports the idea. With Kane Manor

Earl Pfeifer and Carol Plato hope to bring their cheetahs Robin and Annie Rose to Kaslo. right across from Kaslo’s school, he feels assured by Pfeifer and Plato’s plans to adhere to regulations as they develop their property to protect people and the cheetahs with double fencing, two feet apart, with electric wire over top. Pfeifer understands there could be concerns within the community. “As you can imagine, we are going to be facing nervous people,” he says. “Our house is across the street from the school… We want the people in town on our side.” They are currently applying for membership with the Canadian Association of Zoos and Aquariums (CAZA).

Birdwatching with the Rocky Mountain Naturalists

The natural wonders of Lot 48

Daryl Calder

E

ach spring, Rocky Mountain Naturalists explore a ‘corner’ of our region and learn some of the special details regarding ‘animal, mineral and vegetable’ components. Several members with local knowledge of the Upper Columbia Valley arranged for us to spend a weekend near Fairmont and visit some of their favourite spots. The Spirit Trail, which traverses the east shore and benchlands above Columbia Lake, provides non-motorized access to a unique and scenic area. Known simply as “Lot 48,� The Nature Conservancy of Canada has succeeded in their bid to conserve an ecologically and culturally important property. In July, 2012, Lot 48 became part of a network of conservation lands that span more than 7,600 hectares.

Now the entire East shore of Columbia Lake can continue to serve as a critical north-south and east-west wildlife corridor as well as providing first class habitat for several rare and endangered species. Walking along a dirt track, we noticed the changing qualities of grasslands. Several particularly dry sites provided examples of “Cryptogamic Crusts.� Commonly found in arid regions, these thin, fibrous, living soil crusts are extremely fragile systems. Composed of cyanobacteria, green algae, brown algae, fungi, lichens and sometimes mosses, they are important members of desert ecosystems. They contribute to the well-being of other plants by stabilizing sand and dirt, promoting moisture retention and fixing atmospheric nitrogen. Overhead, amongst a

mixed flock of whirling swallows, Greg was able to notice 12 Black Swifts. One of North America’s most mysterious birds, it is unusual to see so many at once. Studies have shown that these Swifts prefer caves and the cool, damp rock crevices behind waterfalls for nesting and the raising of a single offspring. While touring a series of small lakes and semiopen wooded areas north and west of Athalmere, Dean pointed out a variety of butterflies, skippers, moths and other bugs. We learned to identify some species by recognizing wing angle, color combination and characteristics of their preferred habitat. Because butterflies are most active during the heat of the day, Dean noted the convenient combination of early morning birding, followed by breakfast and a nap, be-

The female Harrier is noticeably larger than the male; both of these slim, long-tailed hawks are distinctive from a long distance away. Holding it’s wings in a V-shape and sporting a white patch at the base of it’s tail, the Harrier weaves back and forth over marshes and grasslands. Along the west side of Columbia Lake, Elaine led us to a small, wet, boggy area featuring orchids, the bright Wood Lily, sweet camas and several Butterworts, an unusual carnivorous plant. Charles Darwin took a great interest in many carnivorous plants publishing many studies about the Butterwort. It is able to eat insects by ‘leaf curling’ and ‘acid production’. The leaf of the Butterwort is covered with a greasy liquid that resembles the feel of butter. When an insect lands on a leaf, it gets stuck to the

grease which starts to produce acids and enzymes. Darwin said an insect would fall apart if you simply touched it when the bug had been in the liquid too long. In addition to the acid and enzyme production, the leaf curls to catch a pool of liquid that forms. This liquid is full of nutrients which are reabsorbed by the leaves. A hike up to the benchlands west of Columbia Lake, provided a combination of grassland, mixed woods and riparian habitat. Again, we listened intently in order to distinguish the various warblers, flycatchers and songbirds. Sandy and Peter had likely never walked so slowly through their favourite area, but were rewarded with a fine learning experience. Western Tanagers carried nesting material, Turkey Vultures and Ospreys circled, and on the ridge, Vesper Sparrows sang while Cedar Waxwings and a Western Kingbird perched. In total, almost 100 bird species were identified at ‘Club Camp’.

F

resh salt air, sandy beaches, rocky coves, fresh local seafood and unspoiled nature are a few of the reasons Canada’s Atlantic provinces are one of the world’s most popular tour destinations. The diverse landscapes, customs and local language variations make travelling to the Maritime provinces of Canada like travelling to a different country. The winter months can be very severe, so travel is recommended from May to October, with September and October being an incredible experience with brilliant fall colours. Prince Edward Island is Canada’s smallest province, rich with red sea cliffs, red sand beaches, gently sloping

sand dunes and rolling green fields. The province is famous for its potato crop, its primary export. Booklovers from around the world flock to PEI to see firsthand the setting for Lucy Maud Montgomery’s Anne of Green Gables. Newfoundlanders are famous for providing a warm welcome and love to share their unique culture with visitors at their legendary kitchen parties. St. John’s George Street is full of shops, restaurants, and pubs, many with live local bands playing amazing music with local flair. In late May and early June, a parade of 10,000-yearold icebergs cruise along “Iceberg Alley”, the area between the

coast of Labrador and the northeast tip of Newfoundland. While there are many excellent shoreline vantage points for this natural spectacle, you can choose to hop on a boat tour or kayak for an upclose and unforgettable perspective. The hike down from Signal Hill is a must-do, with incredible views of the city and bay. The modern port city of Halifax is full of culture and heritage. A short drive takes you to Peggy’s Cove, a simply gorgeous natural rock formation which is the home of the famous lighthouse and picturesque fishing village. The Maritime Museum of the Atlantic has an amazing collection relating to the story of

search for Titanic victims, many of which are buried in Halifax cemeteries. Also, relicts and displays from the famous Halifax explosion of December 1917 make a fascinating visit. The Bay of Fundy’s Hopewell Rocks is home to the world’s highest tides. During low tide, you can walk

in the sand amongst the hidden coves and cliffs. Six hours later, the rushing tide returns and you can view the spectacle from dry land, or hop in a kayak and paddle around the sandstone pillars. Sable Island, 300 kilometres southeast of Halifax, is known as the Graveyard of the Atlan-

tic, with an estimated 350 shipwrecks in its history. It is a 41-kilometre-long sandbar that is home to approximately five year-round residents and 400 free-roaming horses. During the summer months, the population swells with tourists and scientists, and it is now a national park. Since all of this within our own country, travel is simple and relatively inexpensive. Several flights each day from either Calgary or Vancouver will have you in Halifax or St. John’s the same day. And with so much natural beauty and an abundance of activities, travel to the Maritime provinces is well worth taking the time to experience.

Cranbrook Arts Council celebrates Columbia Basin Cultural Tour Helen Duckworth

Submitted

Nicole Byford of Cranbrook is pictured donating the award winning documentary “A War of Their Own” to Mike Selby, Reference Librarian for the Cranbrook Public Library. Nicole is a member of The War Amps CHAMP Program for Child Amputees. and part of its Operation Legacy. Operation Legacy helps to commemorate important military heritage anniversaries and teach our younger generation about Canada’s Military History. July 10 marked the 70th anniversary of the Invasion of Sicily and the Italian Campaign during the Second World War. Nicole donated the documentary “A War of Their Own” to the Cranbrook Public Library of behalf of Operation Legacy. The documentary highlights the sacrifices that Canadians made during that battle.

The Cranbrook and District Arts Council are pleased to be a part of the 2013 Columbia Basin Culture Tour. This year marks the fifth year of the Columbia Basin Culture Tour, a program which encourages the public to explore and discover their arts and culture community. This year’s culture tour features over eighty different locations varying from museums and galleries to the studios of independent artists who open their doors to the public for a limited time only. The tour spans across the Southwest Basin, Northwest Basin, Northeast Basin and Southeast Basin and admission to collaborating venues is free of charge. The tour is designed to be self-directed so you can pick and choose locations that suit your tastes or explore exhibitions you wouldn’t usually attend. The offerings are so

diverse and varied there will be something for everyone. To mark the event, the CDAC will be extending its opening hours on Saturday, August 10, and Sunday August 11 (10 a.m- 5 p.m), to showcase the Open Art exhibition, an exhibition of 2D and 3D pieces. Open Art Exhibitions at the CDAC allow artists to showcase their strengths, talents and passion without the restriction of a theme. The weekend is also an opportunity for those of you who may have missed business entry for the Urban Artsy Deer Project or for those wanting to be involved but can’t tackle the challenge of a whole deer. The CDAC’s own ‘PROTODOE’ will be looking for visitors to the gallery to help decorate her for the August 24th Art in the Park event. Guests to the gallery will be invited to add CDACthemed colored paper to the deer which is a great

interactive bonus for children and adults alike. Become a part of Cranbrook history by adding to ‘PROTODOE’ over the Columbia Basin Culture Tour Weekend and see your efforts on display at the Art in the Park event on August 24th, more details soon to be announced. For those up for the challenge, family class, child class and individual class deer are still available for purchase from the CDAC office and are still eligible for entry to judging for prizes on August 24th. Also during the Columbia Basin Culture Tour Weekend, the CDAC will be selling tickets for their upcoming Strawberry Tea Party fundraiser, held in the

gallery space on August 17th 11.30-1.30pm. A fun-fundraiser, this event costs $5 and attendees will be treated to a strawberry themed tea party with delicious drinks, cake and some delicate nibbles surrounded by the August Open Art Exhibition. Ornate teacups, doilies, lace and lazy summer days, let’s celebrate summer together!

VIENNA, Austria — It was 1943 when Vienna’s Nazi overlords gave the order to destroy the city’s oldest Jewish cemetery, demanding it be levelled and the tombstones attesting to centuries of Jewish existence there be destroyed. Desperate to save their heritage, the city’s shrinking Jewish community decided to act. Defying the possibility of prison, deportation or execution, they buried the gravestones and kept them from Nazi hands. Some 70 years later, Jewish leaders in the Austrian capital say the long-lost stones have been rediscovered. It is a find they say could transform a small obscure graveyard into one that rivals the significance of Prague’s Jewish cemetery, the oldest known burial ground of its kind. The cemetery has no name and is hard to find, with the only entrance through a city home for the elderly in Vienna’s 9th district. Weathered but restored gravestones poke through weedy, uncut grass, with faded Hebrew inscriptions. But beneath the ground, Jewish leaders say, are other tombstones piled layer upon layer. The cemetery dates back to the 16th century and had about 900

Tombstones discovered at a small Jewish cemetery in Vienna, Austria are photographed on July 10, 2013. tombstones until 1938, when the Nazis came to power and gave vandals free reign to deface and destroy them. Vienna’s Jewish leaders say it is not clear exactly how many were buried by the small group of Viennese Jews determined to save their heritage from the Nazi bulldozers. After workers scoured the ground with radar as part of restoration work, they say they are sure there are hundreds of tombstones beneath the

grass. The 20 unearthed in the past few weeks have convinced officials they have a historically significant find, they said. Raimund Fastenbauer, a senior official with Vienna’s Jewish community, told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he believes many of the up to 600 missing stones are still below ground and partially or fully recoverable. Community leader Oskar Deutsch said the stones are up to 500

years old. While finding and restoring them is expected to last for years, he said more will likely be dug up in the next few weeks. More than 185,000 Jews lived in Vienna before Hitler’s Germany annexed Austria in 1938. Of the more than 65,000 deported to Nazi death camps, only about 2,000 survived. Most of the rest emigrated, with only about 25,000 remaining by 1946, most of whom then left the country.

Solar system has a tail, just like comets Marcia Dunn Associated Press

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Our solar system has a tail, just like comets. Now the U.S. space agency can prove it. Scientists revealed images Wednesday showing the tail emanating from the bullet-shaped region of

space under the grip of the sun, including the solar system and beyond. The region is known as the heliosphere, and the tail is called the heliotail. The findings are based on data from NASA’s Interstellar Boundary Explorer, or IBEX. Scientists always pre-

A powerful tool when you want to reach your potential customers.

For Better or Worse

sightfulness comes from asking questions -- just make sure they’re the right ones. Your power of observation will come through. Tonight: All eyes turn to you. Now what are you going to do? SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Deal with a partner who is determined to share his or her viewpoint. Later, when you stop to ponder where this person was coming from, you will see the rationale behind his or her thoughts. Be sure to keep an open mind. Tonight: Consider a getaway this weekend or next. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Others seek you out. In order to accomplish what you desire, you might want to screen your calls. Listen well to a partner who can help you carry out a certain project much faster. This likely will be the only person you should open the door for. Tonight: Wind down with a friend. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Dive into work; the grueling details of a meeting need to be handled quickly. By midafternoon, you will reach out to someone with whom you

want to speak. Hopefully you have some extra time in your schedule. Tonight: Continue an important conversation over dinner. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) When you defer to others, you seem to have better results. Push a creative concept forward before lunch, if possible. Others will hear you better then, though it might take a day or two for them to make an assessment. Deal with a partner directly. Tonight: Spend time with a loved one. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Getting going might be difficult in regard to a personal situation. You might believe that you can handle it right now if you could stop and make the time. Tap into you creativity, and request the help of a close friend. This person’s ideas could help. Tonight: Let more fun in.

Rhymes with Orange

By Hillary B. Price

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am 29 years old, own my home and support myself. I am in a serious relationship with a wonderful man who is African-American. All of my life, my family has been ruled by my maternal grandmother. My “nana” doesn’t approve of this relationship because my boyfriend is black and I am white, and this has caused much heartache for me. My mother says I am not allowed to bring my boyfriend to family functions, because “it will kill my grandmother.” She also says I am selfish to continue this relationship despite the fact that my parents and nana don’t approve. Annie, I’m planning to marry this man. I don’t feel that I should have to give up my happiness because my family cannot accept the man I have chosen to spend my life with. How do I convince my parents that I’m entitled to happiness regardless of what they think? I am in so much pain because it seems that my parents care more about my nana’s feelings than their daughter’s future. -- Devastated Dear Devastated: If this is the man you are going to marry, then do it and stop worrying about your family’s approval. You should pay attention to them if your choices are poor -- if you pick abusers or addicts, for example. But if your guy is good to you and you will take care of each other throughout life’s ups and downs, you do not need to please anyone else. While it would be sad if your family cannot eventually learn to accept this, please have the courage of your convictions. Dear Annie: My husband and I recently traveled with another couple to a different city for a sporting event. The area where we stayed had a shuttle bus to take us to the ballgame. After the game, our husbands walked ahead of us, and my friend and I were talking and didn’t realize that we were not walking toward the shuttle bus. By the time we noticed, about 10 people were in line between our husbands and us. We said, “Excuse me,” and tried to get to our husbands, and at least four people started screaming, “Who do you think you are trying to cut the line? You New Yorkers just push ahead of everybody.” They continued to make uncomplimentary remarks about New Yorkers (we don’t even live there anymore). My friend and I just stood there because we didn’t want to get into an argument. What should we have done? -- Judy Dear Judy: It might have helped if you had simply said, “So sorry! Please excuse us. We need to catch up to our husbands,” and then called to the men so they could confirm. But people are not obligated to let you pass them in line, and you were smart not to pick a fight with these belligerent folks. We trust your husbands saved you seats on the shuttle. Dear Annie: I disagree with your response to “Rejected,” whose wife spends her time online or with her widowed mother instead of in the bedroom. If this had been a woman writing about her husband, your first reaction would have been to suggest an affair. I think this explains everything. My ex used to do the same thing when she “visited her aunt.” I found out when I saw an envelope addressed to a P.O. Box and read about her sexual exploits. She is probably staying with him so she won’t have to give him money in a divorce. -- Been There and Had It Done to Me Dear Been: You could be right. However, he said they have been married for 34 years. For many women, sex after menopause becomes a miserable chore or even a painful experience. We wouldn’t rule out an affair, but we think it’s more likely she’s simply avoiding intimacy. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
