Boy rescued from submerged vehicle at Whiteswan C AROLYN GR ANT Kimberley Daily Bulletin
A dramatic rescue took place at Whiteswan Lake this past weekend when a fiveyear-old boy was trapped in a submerged vehicle. It began with the driver losing control of a vehicle on the Whiteswan Forest Service Road on Saturday, August 3.
The vehicle ended up in Whiteswan Lake. Kimberley RCMP Cpl. Chris Newel reports that the vehicle was driven by the mother of the boy and there was a 16-year-old female passenger as well. “The female driver and another occupant were able to free themselves from the
vehicle and swim to shore,” Newel said. “The five-yearboy remained restrained in the vehicle.” However, two brothers from Lethbridge and Turner Valley, Alberta, were in the area and immediately rendered assistance. “They jumped into the water and after several at-
tempts were able to free the young boy,” said Cpl. Newel. Newel says he has no information on exactly how they managed to free him. “The vehicle was reported to be five to seven feet below the surface and the boy was submerged for five to 15 minutes,” he said. “Once on shore, others assisted in administer-
ing CPR.” The boy was rushed to East Kootenay Regional Hospital and then transferred to the Children’s Hospital in Calgary where he is reported to be doing very well, Newel says. “Police and the family are very thankful to those who helped out. Without the
brothers’ quick response, it’s likely the outcome would have been tragic. We want to recognize them for their quick action. “The young boy is making good progress in Calgary, but the father advises there are several medical tests that still to be done before he will be released.”

The election rolled out in favour of incumbent MLA Bill Bennett, with 94 of the 101 areas in the Kootenay East riding giving the edge to the B.C. Liberals.

Heartbeet sure to speed up Kimberley’s pulse The new bistro has items for the gluten-intolerant, vegans and vegetarians but they ask even meat-lovers to give peas a chance K AIT Y BROWN Townsman/Bulletin Staff
A new vegetarian bistro has settled into the Platzl. Called Heartbeet, it provides something for every kind of food orientation from gluten-intolerants, to vegans, to vegetarians and even those following the raw food diet. The owners, Michel Kuhn and Nicole Vogt, are originally from Switzerland but are now living in Cranbrook. They thought Kimberley was the perfect place to have a restaurant that targeted more specific food needs. “We just want to offer a variety of vegetarian cuisine, not just vegetarian but vegan as well as gluten-free. Especially gluten-free is high in demand right now and there are not a lot of places to eat out for gluten-free people so we wanted to give this opportunity for gluten-free people to eat here,” said
Kuhn. Both chefs understand the difficulty that these dietary routes bring and they wanted to provide a place where the food was gluten-free, vegan and vegetarian guaranteed. “I think it’s nice as a vegetarian to have a choice between a couple of items on the menu, not just the one that you have to go for and you don’t even know if the stock is vegetable stock or if they used chicken stock,” said Vogt. The owners themselves aren’t vegetarians but they rarely eat meat – when they do they know where it came from, not from a factory. Michel is a trained chef who learned the trade in Switzerland, where he worked in a vegetarian restaurant for five years. But the two are passionate not only for providing options for those
with specific dietary restrictions and choices, they are also passionate about doing the best they can to support local farmers, supporting the community of Kimberley and being as eco-friendly as possible in their business. “We make everything from scratch and we grow our own vegetables and we incorporate that into our menu. We buy as much local as there is available and at times there are some things that are very hard to get,” said Kuhn. With their restaurant, the two have supplies from their own garden as well as other gardeners in town. They said there are a lot of benefits in going the local, homegrown and organic route. “Transportation for one. You don’t have to ship it from who knows where. (You) waste a lot of gas and a lot of mileage. Those fruits and

vegetables are picked when they are not ripe for the transportation and then there is not enough flavour in that,” said Kuhn. “Also, it supports the local economy. If I buy from a farmer here, he spends the money here again and then it goes around and around. If I buy from a big, big company they just pay to their shareholders and the area doesn’t really benefit,” said Kuhn. “For me, I wouldn’t know how many more vitamins an organic beet has to a regular one but I know that the pesticides are not there and that is a big plus for me because eventually I end up eating those too. I think that’s the main reason for me,” said Vogt. And as for the meat-eaters, to whom tofu is taboo, Vogt and Kuhn encourage them to give the new flavours and ingredients a try. “I think that they are also scared that they are only going to get a salad with a couple of seeds on it, a few sprouts and that they will never be full. But everyone has been full, even the meat-eaters,” said Vogt. Vegetarian food choice is very broad and there is a lot of variety, explains Kuhn. There is a stigma that the only vegetarian options are salads and plates of veggies but Heartbeet has a lot of unique vegetarian creations with bold flavours – Beet Gnocchi and Tofu Stroganoff to name a few. Another aspect about Heartbeet is that their menu will change with the seasons, according to what is harvested when. “We want to chal-

Michel Kuhn and Nicole Vogt just opened Heartbeet vegetarian bistro, located in the Platzl. They dare everyone to come and give their flavours a try, even meat-lovers. lenge people to try new things. Because everywhere else you find the same things and it’s all basically comfort food. We want to get people out of their comfort zones and trying something new; 99 per cent like it! It’s just a matter of trying but people are kind of afraid of trying new stuff because they are used to their flavours,” said Kuhn. “I think that again, there is the stigma that vegetarian food is only salads and seeds. As well, people think that just hippies eat the veg-
etarian food. I think that’s another challenge, we are trying to say, ‘Hey, we can be upto-date and modern too,’” said Vogh. The bistro is here to reconnect people to food, to do their part in helping Kimberley’s economy by buying locally, and to inspire veggie-lovers and veggie-haters alike. To remind people of where their food comes from before it gets to their plate and to not only challenge their palettes but to challenge in terms of causing aware-
ness about the food choices – to buy locally or to give even more money to the bloated superstores. The bistro is open for dinner from 5 to 10 p.m. on Tuesdays, 5 to 11 p.m. on Thursdays and 5 to midnight on Fridays and Saturdays. “Even just to start with, one day a week have a meat-free day. If everyone would do that we could do a lot,” said Kuhn. For more information about the bistro you can check their website at www.heartbeet.ca.
Kootenay residents hired to clean up fuel spill C ANADIAN PRESS
1 2 3 WIN!**
Contest closes September 30, 2013 *See Official Rules & Regulations at UsedEverywhere.com for details **Winners will be notified via email
CASTLEGAR, B.C. — An ecotoxicologist from Castlegar, B.C., is the latest expert to join clean up efforts underway on Lemon Creek in the southeastern corner of the province. Katherine Enns has been asked to help the Slocan River Streamkeepers’ Association interpret and share environmental data taken from Lemon Creek and the Slocan and Koo-
tenay rivers, following last month’s spill of 35,000 litres of jet fuel. Clean up organizers are also turning to Slocan Valley residents for help skimming the fuel from pools and eddies along the waterways. A hiring fair will be held at a Castlegar hotel Aug. 7, with those interested asked to email a resume to resumesbc@qmlp.ca before the event, in order to speed
up the process. A crew of 50 continues to try to scoop up the fuel, dumped July 26 when a tanker truck veered off a gravel forest service road, spilling its entire load into Lemon Creek. Residents have been ordered not to use water from the creek or the Slocan and Kootenay rivers above and below the Brilliant Dam, until further notice.

ROUND OF A-PAWS
Dog show marks 40 years Cranbrook and District Kennel Club holds it annual dog show from August 23-25
Sally MacDonald Townsman Staff
The small but mighty Cranbrook and District Kennel Club celebrates the 40th anniversary of its dog show with this year’s show from August 23 to 25 at Moir Park, Cranbrook. Hundreds of registered purebred dogs from all over Canada and the U.S. will be brought to Cranbrook for the show, made up of four confirmation shows, three obedience and three rally trials. Many of Canada’s best show dogs will be here for the all-breed championship. And it’s free to watch the show. While the show officially begins on Friday, August 23, there are two exciting events being held ahead of time on Thursday, August 22. The first is a full-day workshop about handling a dog at a show, presented by professional handler Larry Clark. The workshop covers everything from set-up to grooming to ring procedure and presentation. It costs $40, register by emailing coastwynn@shaw.ca. On Thursday evening, any dogs – including non-purebred, non-registered dogs – can take part in the Canine Good Neighbour Test. “Canine Good Neighbour is a test that’s available all through Canada and the U.S.,” explained club treasurer Nancy Lopaschuk. “The tests are not that difficult, but they need to have a little bit of training. They need to have basic manners and they need a little bit of training, but they don’t have to have strict obedience training.” Canine Good Neighbour takes the dog through 12 tests, such as: accepting a friendly stranger without jumping or hiding; passing another dog with only mild interest; coming when called; sitting on command and staying in place; and walking through a crowd. “It’s really good to see people doing that with their dogs because it’s good education,”
Submitted
Local papillon Celine, or “Nanrich’s Count On Celine”, was shown in June at the Canadian National Specialty in Manitoba. Some of the country’s finest dogs will be in Cranbrook this month for the kennel club’s annual dog show. said Lopaschuk. It is $25 to enter a dog if you pre-register; $30 on the day. Phone 250489-1693 or email jcackerman@shaw.ca to enter. The dog show really gets going on Friday, August 23. Judges are coming from Victoria, Chilliwack, Calgary, Edmonton and Cincinnati, Ohio to judge the show. There are two confirmation shows on Friday, limited entry cham-
pionships for baby puppy classes and veteran classes. There is one confirmation show on Saturday and one on Sunday, and junior showmanship will be held on Saturday. Obedience and rally trials will be held on Saturday and Sunday. The categories cover sporting dogs, hounds, working dogs, terriers, toy breeds, non-sporting dogs and herding
dogs. Prizes are given out for best in show, best puppy in show, best baby puppy in show, best veteran in show, first in group, best puppy in group, best baby puppy in group, and best veteran in group. High In Trial prizes will be awarded for obedience and rally. Entries for confirmation close today, Wednesday, August 7. Phone 250-489-0409 or
email coastwynn@ shaw.ca. Entries for obedience and rally are open right to the day, but pre-registering by August 7 will secure a lower fee. To celebrate the club’s 40th anniversary, there will be a special dinner on Saturday, August 24 for exhibitors with a barbecue and raffle table. Spectating the dog show is sure to be enjoyable for canine enthusiasts, even those who don’t own a purebred or registered dog. “There is no charge to watch the dog show and it’s a good time for people to come and watch dogs and watch what they can do and talk to people about dogs, especially if you are interested in obedience,” said Lopaschuk. The Cranbrook and District Kennel Club formed in 1973. The club has a small nucleus, but it holds events such as seminars and classes in agility, obedience, field trials, tracking, handling, and health seminars. For more information, visit www.cdkc.ca.

Slaterville, Baker Hill among Cranbrook spots that voted for the NDP Continued from page 1 While Bennett got 63 per cent of the overall vote on May 14, he won 94 per cent of Kootenay East’s voting area. There were pockets that voted in favour of B.C. NDP candidate Norma Blissett, and many close battles. For instance, in the neighbourhood adjacent to Steeples Elementary 56 per cent of voters marked their ballot in favour of Norma Blissett compared to the other 44 per cent for Bill Bennett. Across the tracks, in the neighbourhood just beside Slaterville to the north-east, Blissett had a lead of 64 per cent, while nearby, on the downtown side of the tracks Bennett took the most votes with 53 per cent. On the south side of town, in the neighbourhood near Laurie Middle School, between 17th and Victoria Avenue and Baker Street and 2nd Street South, the vote again
tipped in Blissett’s favour 55 per cent. The neighbourhood between 2nd and 4th Street South and 7th and 11th Avenue voted in favour of Blissett over Bennett by a margin of 55 per cent, while the roughly same size neighbourhood directly west voted 54 per cent in favour of Bennett. The households on the east side of 11th Avenue up to 14th Avenue and from 4th to 10th Street, voted on the B.C. NDP side of the fence as well, 53 per cent for Blissett. The St. Mary’s region north of Cranbrook also voted decisively in favour of Blissett, 87 per cent. In Fernie, the area downtown from the highway to 4th Avenue and the river to 11th Street was behind Blissett by 53 per cent. The neighbourhood directly beside, also part of the downtown, voted similarly, 55 Townsman file/arne petryshen photo per cent for Blissett. Incumbent MLA Bill Bennett celebrates on election night 2013.

Charges were laid, and even though Berlusconi gave 127,000 euros to three key witnesses just before the trial began, he was found guilty last June. He was sentenced to seven years in prison and a lifetime ban on holding public office. That case has now also started its way through the lengthy appeals process, but one by one the doors are shutting against Berlusconi. How did he get away with it for so long? One reason is a justice system so inefficient and overloaded that it’s easy for a rich man with good lawyers to string a case out until it dies of old age. Berlusconi is the richest man in Italy, and Italy has 9 million court cases pending. (There are only 60 million Italians.) The larger reason is that Berlusconi, for all his sleaze and corruption, is a brilliant politician. His unique achievement was to create a coalition of north Italian racists, central and south Italian post-fascists, and just plain conservative Catholics, and hold it together for almost two decades. That coalition is gradually disintegrating now, but it blocked the modernisation of Italian politics that should have followed the “Tangentopoli” scandals and the collapse of the old political parties in the early 1990s for a full two decades. Berlusconi’s departure from politics will be good for Italy, but his long time in office has done permanent harm to the country’s economy and its political and legal systems. And what will he do when he is finally banned from politics? Well, he may have to spend a year under house arrest, but he has lots of very big houses, and lots of young women will still come to the parties of such a generous man.

Canadians advance at Rogers Cup BILL BEACON Canadian Press
MONTREAL - It was a huge day for Canada at the US$3.49 million men’s Rogers Cup. Filip Peliwo, Frank Dancevic and Vasek Pospisil all pulled off threeset victories on Tuesday to advance to the second round of the Masters 1000 hardcourt tennis event. With Jesse Levine of Ottawa’s win on Monday, it put four Canadians into the second round - with a chance for a fifth when 13th-seeded Milos Raonic of Thornhill, Ont., takes on Frenchman Jeremy Chardy in a night match. The last time Canada had even three in the second round of the event that was once called the Canadian Open was in 1993. “It’s amazing,” said Dancevic, who downed Lu Yen-Hsun of Taiwan 5-7, 7-6 (6), 6-1. “It’s a Masters series event and pretty much everyone you play here is at a high level, ranked in the top 50, so to have four guys through the first round shows a lot about how far Canadian tennis has come along.
“It’s really great to see and it’s been showing up more and more in all the tournaments.” It was a first win in an ATP event this year for Dancevic, who has been doing well of late in lower-level tournaments. Peliwo, who became the first Canadian male to win a junior grand slam event at Wimbledon in 2012, staved off a match point with what he called a “lucky” shot at the net for a 3-6, 7-5, 3-1 win over 39th-ranked Jarkko Nieminen 3-6, 7-5, 3-1. The Finnish lefthander was forced to retire in the third set with a hamstring injury. Pospisil upset one of the hottest players on the ATP Tour as he outlasted 20th-ranked American John Isner 5-7, 7-6 (5), 7-6 (4) before a roaring crowd on centre court. The only Canadian to fall thus far was Peter Polansky of Thornhill, who got to the main draw through the qualifying tournament but then lost to ninth-seeded Kei Nishikori on Monday. The Canadian men had already reached a milestone this year when they defeated Italy to
reach the Davis Cup semifinals for the first time. And with Raonic ranked 13th and Pospisil recently risen to 71st, it is the first time Canada has had two players in the world’s top 75 since Andrew Sznejder and Grant Connell in 1990. Peliwo looked ready for an early exit when he fell behind 3-0 in the second set and then was taken to match point with 32-year-old Niemenin leading 5-4. But he found a way out of that jam and went on to win the set and the match. “Basically, I went to the net after a rally, hit a pretty lame volley, kind of popped it up,” the 19-year-old said. “He hit a forehand, I kind of
moved to the right expecting it down the line and I guess he changed his mind a bit and hit it right towards my direction. “I just threw my hands up like that. Just reflex.” The 19-year-old Peliwo is ranked 353rd in the world, but the victory over 39th-ranked Niemenin should put him into the top-300. “It’s definitely the best feeling I’ve had in a while,” he said. “It’s such a big win for me. “Ranking-wise, I’ll get a lot of points. Confidence, to be able to say I beat a top-40 player. I’m still trying to realize what I did.” Peliwo will face 66thranked Denis Istomin of Uzbekistan in the sec-
ond round on Wednesday. Pospisil will face No. 51 Radek Stepanek, who upset 12th seeded Nicolas Almagro 6-3, 6-7 (4), 6-3. Dancevic takes on 15th-seeded Jerzy Janowicz, who beat Julien Benneteau 3-6, 6-3, 7-5. In other matches, 13th-seeded Fabio Fognini downed Marcos Baghdatis 1-6, 6-1, 6-1, Alex Bogolomov of Russia beat Michael Llodra of France 6-2, 4-6, 6-3 and Mikhail Youzhny defeated Jurgen Melzer 6-4, 7-6 (3). In doubles, Rafael Nadal and Pablo Andujar fought off two match points to beat fellow Spaniards David Ferrer and Feliciano Lopez 6-7 (2), 6-4, 12-10.
Former NHLer Shawn Burr dies at 47 ASSOCIATED PRESS
DETROIT - Shawn Burr, who played 16 years in the NHL, mostly with the Detroit Red Wings, died Monday. He was 47. Dave Goetze, a friend of Burr’s, says Burr was making progress in a fight against
leukemia, but he died from brain trauma after a fall at his Detroit-area home. Goetze has worked for the Shawn Burr Foundation in support of blood cancer research. Burr was a firstround draft pick by the Red Wings in 1984. He
made his NHL debut in 1984-85 and was with the Red Wings until 1995. He also played for the Tampa Bay Lightning and San Jose Sharks. In 878 NHL games, Burr scored 181 goals with 259 assists and 1,069 penalty minutes.

BRECLAV, Czech Republic - Sweden scored three straight goals en route to a 4-3 win over Canada at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial under-18 men’s hockey tournament on Tuesday. Jared McCann opened the scoring for Canada at 3:14 of the first period before Sweden countered with three straight - including two from Kevin Elgestal - to take a 3-1 advantage into the third. Sam Bennett’s power-play goal at 3:54 of the third pulled Canada (1-1) to within 3-2 but Sweden’s Michael Nylander Altelius countered with the man advantage at 6:09. Spencer Watson added another power-goal at 8:01 but that’s as close as the defending champion Canadians could get. Robin Kovacs had the other goal for Sweden (1-1) against their Group A rival. Canadian coach Dale Hunter said his squad dug itself in a hole it could never get out of. “We didn’t come out well and got down 3-1,” said Hunter, the head
coach of the OHL’s London Knights. “Against good teams like Sweden if you get down 3-1 it’s tough to come back. “But we didn’t quit. We had good scoring chances to tie it up but couldn’t get one by the goalie.” Swedish starter Jesper Eriksson left the game at 6:51 of the third with a suspected broken leg when a Canadian player slid into him after being tripped. Sweden’s Gustav Frosling received the tripping minor on the play. That forced backup Linus Soderstrom into the game but he only allowed Watson’s power-play goal. “He (Soderstrom) played very well,” Hunter said. “He made some big stops.” Canada opened the tournament Monday with a 4-0 win over the Czech Republic while Sweden’s first game was a 3-2 loss to Switzerland. Fortunately for the Canadians, they don’t have time to worry about the loss as they face the Swiss on Wednesday in another Group A showdown.
Canucks sign first-round picks Horvat and Shinkaruk to NHL entry-level contracts
VANCOUVER - The Vancouver Canucks signed their top 2013 draft picks Bo Horvat and Hunter Shinkaruk to NHL entry-level contracts Monday. Horvat, an 18-year-old Rodney, Ont., native, was selected ninth overall after the Canucks traded goaltender Cory Schneider to the New Jersey Devils for the pick. The Knights captain also led the league in playoff scoring with 16 goals and seven assists. Horvat, a six-foot, 206-pound centre, has also represented Canada at the 2012 under-18 Ivan Hlinka Memorial tournament and captained Team Ontario at the 2012 Under-17 World Hockey Challenge. Shinkaruk, an 18-year-old Calgary native, captained the Medicine Hat Tigers in 2012-13, recording 49 goals and 37 assists. The 5-10, 181-pound centre led the Tigers in playoff scoring with three goals and three assists. Internationally, Shinkaruk was a member of the Canadian team that won a bronze medal at the 2012 under-18 world championships. He earned gold with Canada’s entry at the 2011 Ivan Hlinka. The Canucks also announced that they have signed left-winger Darren Archibald. The 23-year-old Newmarket, Ont., native split last season between the AHL’s Chicago Wolves and ECHL’s Kalamazoo Wings. In Chicago, he produced 12 goals and 10 assists and 47 penalty minutes in 55 games played. He also recorded six goals, seven assists and 29 penalty minutes in 18 games with Kalamazoo. Canadian Press

Tonight: Accept a dear friend’s or loved one’s offer. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might want to try something else or do something differently. You might witness, or perhaps even participate, in the clash of wills around you. Sometimes it is difficult for you to pull away from such intensity. It would serve you well to do so now. Tonight: With a favorite person. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your plans could go up in smoke because one person wants things one way and someone else wants it his or her way.

Annie’s Mailbox by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I left my hometown when I was 19 and have lived in a nearby state for the past 27 years. Two of my children are grown and on their own, and my youngest currently lives with my ex-husband overseas. My mother is now in her 70s and has many medical problems, lives alone and rarely leaves the house. I am also in a long-distance relationship with a man from my childhood who lives near my mother. I am planning to move back to my home state to help my mother and also pursue this relationship. However, I am torn between moving back there and being able to see my children, who live in various places. It breaks my heart for my mother to be all alone, and I know I am running out of time to have her in my life. I also feel this man is “the one,” and I want to be with him. Annie, I spent nearly 30 years caring for my kids. I plan to see them every few months and create a visitation schedule for my son to be with me. Am I being selfish to move away? -- Torn Between Kids, Parents and Boyfriend Dear Torn: Absolutely not. You aren’t abandoning young children. Your kids no longer live with you, so you are free to go where you wish. As long as you can visit your children and work out a time for your youngest to be with you, you are under no obligation to remain in your current home. You have spent 27 years taking care of your kids, and now you are quite unselfishly going to take care of your mother. You deserve to also take care of yourself. Dear Annie: I recently invited some friends to my home for an informal Sunday supper. We’ve known one another for 10 years and usually go out to restaurants. This is the first time we’ve had them over to our home. Since then, I have not received any kind of invitation from them. Worse, one of them recently said they had such a good time that we should do it again. But no one volunteered to use their home. Someone suggested I do it. I have done a lot of entertaining in the past, and going over my guest lists, I realize that very few people have returned the favor. Before my husband died last year, he said flat out that he was tired of entertaining people who do nothing for us in return. One of our neighbors was invited twice to our home, and I have yet to be inside her house. Is reciprocity some old social rule that no longer exists? -- Still Waiting Dear Still: No, but many people no longer feel obligated to follow any social rules at all. We think your particular problem is home entertainment. Too many people are embarrassed by the condition of their houses or by their cooking skills. They don’t realize that their friends aren’t interested in comparing furniture and appetizers. They simply want to enjoy the company. The solution for you is to entertain in your home only those who will reciprocate, and socialize with the rest in neutral settings such as restaurants. Dear Annie: “Too Good of a Cook” complained that her eight grown children and grandchildren visited often but never offered to help with the groceries or cooking. My parents owned a vacation home, and each year, the family gathered for one long holiday weekend. It was not fair for our parents to host all of the families and feed them, as well. To ensure that everyone had a nice vacation and still contributed their fair share, each family was responsible for one day of meals: breakfast, lunch and dinner. That meant they also had to shop, prepare, cook, serve and clean up. This worked well for many years. Our parents have passed, but those were great years with warm memories -- and tasty meals. -Colorado River Family Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Daredevil frees himself from locked coffin during skydive ASSOCIATED PRESS
SERENA, Ill. — A U.S. daredevil parachuted gently into field Tuesday after managing to free himself from shackles and a locked coffin while plummeting through the air. Anthony Martin waved to the cameras and the crowd that turned out to watch his stunt after he landed in Serena, Illinois, about 112 kilometres southwest of Chicago. After being dragged from
a plane at about 14,500 feet (4,400 metres) up, the coffin whipped wildly from side-toside with Martin inside. One of the two skydivers who were steadying the box was hit in the face, but everyone landed safely. Martin, 47, said that after freeing himself, he got clear of the coffin and tracked it as it fell to the ground, just as he did when he first pulled off the stunt 25 years ago on just his 17th skydive. Martin, who is from Wis-
consin, began studying the art of escape at age 6 after his father shattered his early fascination with magic by explaining the trickery behind a floating pen illusion. “I thought that skill and knowledge could surpass trickery and magic,’’ he said. Martin took locks apart until he understood how the mechanisms operate and are put together. “At 10 I had pretty much started to specialize in escapes,’’ Martin says. “By the
time I was 13, the sheriff was locking me in his handcuffs. And I was getting out.’’ Jumping from a raft into a lake at age 11 — naturally, with his hands cuffed behind his back — whet Martin’s appetite for high risk escapes. So in February 1990, he performed his most dangerous water stunt, in which he was locked in a cage and lowered through a hole in the ice and into the frigid water at a Wisconsin
quarry. It took him one minute and 45 seconds to emerge. “It was very, very cold,’’ Martin said. “It doesn’t take long for your fingers, even with gloves, to get numb and lose effectiveness ... you have to work very quickly.’’ Martin first pulled off dropped coffin stunt in an August 1988 on just his 17th skydive. During Tuesday’s jump, Martin laid inside a plywood box with his hands cuffed to
The bear necessities
Alberta bear video gets worldwide exposure Bill Gr avel and Canadian Press
CALGARY — An Internet video is teaching hundreds of thousands of people around the world that back-scratching is one of the bear necessities for grizzlies in the foothills of Alberta. Taken over a threeday period and posted to YouTube by Alberta Parks conservation officer in late July, the flick, titled “What goes on when you are not there,’’ shows a variety of wildlife captured by motion-sensor cameras as they visit what’s known as a “communications’’ or “rub’’ tree. As of Tuesday, the video had more than 1,462,000 views and had been featured on “Good Morning America’’ and the “ABC Nightly News’’ and even the “Colbert Report.’’ There are several different animals in the video, but the grizzlies are the stars, rubbing up against the tree, at one point, four at a time. Set to folksy music, they appear to be dancing. “Kananaskis Country
is one of the few places that does have a healthy grizzly bear population and these rub trees are very important in their social structure. They aren’t scratching an itch, it’s all about scent,’’ said Glenn Naylor, who put the video together. “Every bear that goes to those trees leaves a mark and rubs its scent on the tree. Over time, these trees become destination points for bears so if you can find them you know you’re going to get bears showing up there.’’ Using video editing software, Naylor put the thousands of images together and then got permission from Toronto guitarist Ewan Dobson to use his music in the background. “I was very pleased. It turned out to be very entertaining,’’ said Naylor. “The bottom line is it’s getting giving Alberta Parks, Kananaskis Country and our research into bears a huge profile. There’s a lot of spinoffs to this now. It is raising awareness.’’ Comedian Stephen Colbert had fun with it
a belt around his waist and his right arm chained to the inside of the box. The casket’s door was then held tight with a prison door lock for which no key exists; a locksmith scrambled the tumblers. The box was dragged from the plane and two skydivers helped stabilize it by holding handles on its side while a drogue similar to the parachutes used to slow drag-racing cars and fighter jets further steadied it.
Rabbits, ducks stolen in robberies from petting zoo C ANADIAN PRESS
NANAIMO, B.C. — A struggling petting zoo in Nanaimo, B.C., has been hit by thieves for the second time in just over a month. Rabbits, ducks and feed were stolen Saturday night or early Sunday morning from the Nanaimo 4-H club barn in Beban Park, in the city’s north end. Nanaimo RCMP are investigating and are also probing the theft of a mother rabbit and four bunnies on June 29. Barnyard supervisor Linda Barnett says the incidents could not come at a worse time for the 4-H farm and petting zoo, She says it was hanging on until the opening of the Vancouver Island Exhibition, later this month, but was likely in its last year of operation, unless corporate sponsors can be found.
This is a screenshot from a video, “What goes on when you are not there”, showing a rub tree in Kananaskis, which has 1.4 million YouTube views. on his satirical show. “I’ve said it before folks, but I’m anti-bear,’’ he deadpanned, with stripper music playing in the background over the video. “And that brings me to the No. 1 threat to America — stripper bears. Folks, these God-

less torquing machines are turning our forests into their very own episode of ‘Griz gone wild.’ “Who can resist these hot stripper bears? They’re topless and bottomless though they really should consider waxing.’’ Naylor said he has
done another video involving cougars on a kill and there is another one on the way. “It’s called ‘Rabbit With a Death Wish,’’’ he said. “I’ve already got the images.’’ To see the video, go to: http://youtu.be/AihvuZiDhsg
