Jumbo review decision could take months A R N E P E T RYS H E N Townsman Staff

A decision on whether the B.C. government acted appropriately when approving the Jumbo Glacier Resort will likely take months. The trial part of the judicial review put forth by the Ktunaxa Nation Council wrapped up on Friday, January 17. Kathryn Teneese, chair of the Ktunaxa Nation Council, said they are now awaiting a decision on the review. The Ktunaxa Nation isn’t sure how long that will take, as there is a lot of information for the judge to wade through. “Obviously we’re hoping the sooner the better,” she said. “Then we can determine what our next steps will be.”

Teneese said lawyers for the Ktunaxa Nation advised that it could be months before a decision is reached. The Ktunaxa Nation petitioned for a judicial review of whether the B.C. government acted appropriately when it approved the Master Development Agreement for Jumbo Glacier Resort back in March 2012. The court case began earlier this month, on Jan. 6. The three parties involved – the Ktunaxa, the B.C. government and Glacier Resorts Ltd – were asked to prepare written affidavits that were presented in court. The review took place in Vancouver Supreme Court over the course of 10 days.

Brian Panebianco found not guilty S A L LY M AC D O N A L D Townsman Staff

Brian Panebianco was shaking and unsteady on his feet on Tuesday evening, Jan. 21, as a 12-person jury found him not guilty in connection to the death of Cory Jarock. Members of the jury, made up of Cranbrook, Kimberley and area residents, were also visibly upset as the foreperson

announced the verdict. One by one, the court clerk read the charges, and each time, the jury foreperson pronounced Panebianco not guilty. Manslaughter, criminal negligence causing death, robbery and assault causing bodily harm – not guilty four times.

After the decision, Sawchuk spoke to the Townsman about his client. “Mr. Panebianco’s present thoughts are sorrow for Mr. Jarock’s family at the death of their son,” he said. Jarock’s mother was present in the courtroom throughout the trial but declined to comment after the verdict. Prosecutor Lynal Doerksen said he is not shocked by the not guilty finding. “I’m not surprised. It’s been a difficult case and the facts weren’t easy,” he told the Townsman. Doerksen said the credibility of the three witnesses who were present the night of April 2 would certainly have been an issue for the jury. “It would have to

Jensen testified that she then went to bed, expecting Jarock to walk home. The next morning when she woke up, Jarock was still lying on the driveway. She called friends to ask what she should do, but in the end didn’t take any action. At about lunchtime, a local realtor drove past the home and saw Jarock’s body. He stopped and called 911. A paramedic arrived and found Jarock was deceased. Cory Jarock, 31, was a painter living in Invermere.

Panebianco said the women asked for his help when Jarock refused to leave, began to insult the girls and grabbed Cain’s backside. Panebianco testified that he thought Jarock was going to fight him, so he struck the side of Jarock’s head with his forearm, grabbed the man in a fireman’s hold under the arms, and carried him out the front door, throwing his jacket and shoes out after him. Panebianco later admitted taking money from Jarock’s coat pocket and giving some of it to Jensen to pay her for the vodka. Panebianco left the party 30 minutes later,

A search incidental to arrest of an 18-yearold male in Kimberley on Tuesday afternoon, Jan. 21, turned up cocaine and other drugs. Cranbrook and Kimberley RCMP arrested the male on 4th Avenue for Possession of a Controlled Substance for the Purpose of Trafficking. A search located two grams of cocaine along with 11 capsules purported to be amphetamine. The young man appeared before a Judicial Justice of the Peace by way of teleconference. He was released on conditions including to be inside his residence from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m., report to a bail supervisor and not to possess a cell phone outside his residence. He will appear in Cranbrook court on February 17. Amphetamine is a

of Canada and the people of this community what you have done. I simply admire the work you have done. It’s very difficult. You should be thanked for that.” Crown prosecutor Lynal Doerksen and Panebianco’s lawyer Greg Sawchuk took only a few minutes to agree on a sentence for Panebianco on the lesser charges: a six-month sentence. However, Panebianco spent that long in custody awaiting a bail hearing on these charges in 2012, so he was free to leave the Cranbrook courthouse Tuesday night. “Crown and defense are in agreement that the time he has served in custody, which is six months, will be sufficient for the circumstances of this case,” said Justice Ball. Panebianco was ordered to provide a DNA sample at the Columbia Valley RCMP detachment within a week. He

Instead, after seven hours of secret deliberations, the jury found Panebianco, 25, guilty of two lesser charges: theft under $5,000 for taking money out of Jarock’s pocket, and common assault for hitting Jarock in the head as he evicted him from an Invermere house party on April 2, 2012. Each member of the jury was asked to stand to show their unanimous support for the verdict, and then Supreme Court Justice Kenneth Ball excused the jury and thanked them for their service. “I’ve watched as you’ve been attentive, taking your task very seriously,” Justice Ball told the jury. “I must say, I felt encouraged when we first called you as so few people in the array had any objection to becoming jurors. In fact, many seemed eager to be able to do it. “I really appreciate on behalf of the people

Caitlin Jensen, Emma Cain, Brian Panebianco and Chase Stadnyk were gathered at Jensen’s home on April 2, 2012, the four testified, when Jensen invited Cory Jarock to join them. He arrived at about 10:30 p.m. with a case of 15 beer, pizza and wings. The group shared the beer and then Jensen brought out a bottle of vodka, which they also shared. Cain and Jarock drank the most; Jensen and Panebianco a little; Stadnyk did not drink at all and left at about 1 p.m., according to the testimony. Sometime after that, the young women, 18

But it’s not likely. We will do a review with my supervisors as soon as possible. “I’m happy all the evidence got out,” he concluded. During the six-day trial, the jury heard from a pathologist who found that Cory Jarock died of hypothermia on the night of April 2 to 3, 2012, as he lay on the driveway of his friend Caitlin Jensen’s house after being kicked out of a house party the night before. A toxicologist estimated that Jarock’s

Hitting the heights at Spirit Rock New Kimberley climbing centre proving to be a region-wide draw

C AROLYN GRANT Daily Bulletin

You can feel it the minute you walk in the door of the new Spirit Rock Climbing Centre in Kimberley — an excitement, a buzz that says something is happening here. That positive energy has carried Spirit Rock through a great opening month, and it appears that it is going to continue. Owners Ryan and Verena Tarves and Kevin Evinblades say the centre has been busy since it opened December 7, with climbers of all levels, from all over the East Kootenay and beyond, coming to check it out. “It’s been flat out since then,” Ryan said, “We’ve had clientele from all over the area, tremendous numbers from Cranbrook. And over the holidays we had lots of visitors from the ski hill dropping in.” There is one other partner in the venture, Jim Gray, who is not actively involved in dayto-day running of the centre. He will, however,

be taking advantage of the best view in Kimberley when he and his wife move into the apartment on top of Spirit Rock. The first thing you notice once inside the climbing centre is that it is even bigger than it looks. There are brightly coloured climbing walls on three different levels — one beginning in the basement (or the pit as they call it) and rising to top, allowing room to provide a chimney and overhang to simulate a natural climb. There is a bouldering area upstairs, which you climb without ropes, protected by 16-inch thick floor mats. “It’s top-out bouldering, which is a newer idea,” Ryan said. “You get to the top of the wall and jump over the edge to a deck, so you don’t have to jump off.” Spirit Rock also has a new auto-belay as well as all the other required climbing gear. “It really is state of the art,” Kevin said. “We went to trade shows to see all the new ideas.” Indoor climbing is

“It’s such a positive atmosphere,” Kevin said. “People coach each other and help each other problem solve. People walk out of here tired, but with big grins.” If you walk in off the street, staff will quickly assess your ability. “We want it to be fun but we really push safety. We can teach someone the basics within half an hour. If you have previous experience, there is a free test, just so we can make sure you can tie a knot, do basic belaying. We want you to have fun.” Verena, Ryan and Kevin have all been climbing for years and follow the standard teaching protocol of the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides. There are other instructors as well, all of them local climbers. “We have two high school kids working part-time. They came in and their enthusiasm was so awesome, we wanted to bring them on.” The Spirit Rock Climbing Centre is open seven days a week, 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. on the weekend and noon to 10 p.m. on weekdays.

First responders turning off lights for non-emergencies Arne Petryshen Townsman Staff

This week, council heard that ambulances are now keeping their sirens and lights off for non-emergency calls. The board of BC Emergency Health Services responded to the City of Cranbrook’s past request for more information on local government’s role in first responder services at Monday’s council meeting. The BCEHS is responsible for governing all emergency medical services in the province, including BC Ambulance service, first responder agencies, BC Patient Transfer Network and Trauma Services BC. Wynne Powell, board chair of the BCEHS, wrote that the organization undertook the Re-

source Allocation Plan for ambulances and first responders. The review resulted in reducing the number of calls requiring lights and siren responses and Advanced Life Support ambulances to attend. It found that first responders were not required to attend 35 per cent of medical calls that are now notified by BCAS because patients do not require their medical services. “If you look at the fire department’s fourth quarter report for example, 267 of the 552 responses, which is about 42 per cent, were first responder responses,” Stetski said. He said the issue has come up before the BC Mayors Caucus. “The question is looking basically at the

responsibility between the ambulance service and first responders from the fire departments around British Columbia.” The province pays for ambulances around B.C. while municipalities pay for fire departments and first responders. “Anything the province isn’t funded to do or doesn’t do is picked up by municipalities and first responders,” Stetski said. “The way the BC Mayors Caucus put it was it’s another form of downloading potentially from the province to the municipalities in terms of cost.” Coun. Angus Davis said that back when he was first in the workforce, communities raised money for their own ambulances.

“All the communities in British Columbia were like that, Cranbrook was no different,” Davis said. “Surprisingly it went very well. You usually had industrial trained attendants and you usually had professionals, because most of the people came from industries within the community.” He said at some point the regional district took over the operation and a lot of the volunteer aspect went out the door. That was followed by the province taking it over. “Within the community there is a wealth of talent to respond to these things, and somehow we’ve lost the contact with that in the sense that we look to the senior governments for more and more of the provision of what in

many cases we can do extremely well by ourselves,” he said. The letter also talks about how historically first responders have driven to all medical calls using lights and siren even if the ambulance was responding routine. Since the allocation plan changes for ambulances were implemented earlier this fall, most fire departments in B.C.

decided to match the ambulance services’ response mode and only drive with lights and siren if the patient’s condition warrants an emergency driving response. The letter notes that the change is a significant improvement in public safety for communities throughout B.C. and an example of the positive benefit of collaboration between

k n a h T

the groups involved. BCEHS is in the process of setting up briefings for municipalities that requested an opportunity to discuss the implementation of the Resource Allocation Plan. Stetski was happy to hear there was something coming down the pipeline. Council received the correspondence as information.

Hibernating bats infected with White Nose Syndrome. The fungus is not usually visible if bats are found dead.

Watch for bats in winter Tom Fletcher Black Press

B.C. environment ministry biologists are asking the public to watch and report bat sightings this winter, as they try to track a disease that has killed millions of bats in eastern and central Canada and the U.S. White Nose Syndrome is a fungal disease that kills bats during their winter hibernation period. It is believed to have been introduced to North America and to spread primarily through bat to bat contact. No cases have been reported in western North America so far. B.C. biologists are working to understand how to protect bats from the syndrome and how to help populations should the disease arrive. If you see bats fly-

ing during the day, dead or dying bats or the location of winter bat roosting sites, provincial biologists are asking you to report sightings at 250-3879500. More information on B.C. bats and White Nose Syndrome, see the “current issues” section at www.env. gov.bc.ca/wld/wldhealth/.

Invasion of the Martians “Any time you have a 50/50 chance of getting something right¸ there’s a 90 per cent chance you’ll get it wrong.” Adage

ome of my more tolerant readers will recall a lament that I wrote about getting “turned round” in the Community Forest. I now know why my pick-up went AWOL. It was those damnable cycle tracks that are turning up everywhere, like fleas on the dog’s belly. A person sets out afoot with clear eyes, a composed mind and strong limbs into the wilderness in order to refresh himself with nature‘s wonders and possibly sit and muse for a while atop a hill that he has spotted but, en route, stumbles over innumerable bike tracks. Then, if he foolishly opts to follow one, he is doomed. They don’t go anywhere. They are circular routes like those horrifying quarter-mile tracks on sports fields. They are for competition and exercise, and who needs that? I had been snuffing at the air on the top of Windy Bluff a few years back and, refreshed, was on my way down when I was bowled over on to my wrinkly tush by a Martian. I am sure he was a Martian because he was wearing a helmet, glasses with yellow eyes and an outrageous outfit.

He was riding what might have been a bicycle and he didn’t apologize probably because, being Martian, he didn’t know any human language. I picked myself up, brushed myself off and tottered off homeward, amazed at my miraculous escape from what might have become an encounter of the third kind. Personally, I have nothing against bicycles as such, even those hurled at speed by Martians. I just wish that cyclists wouldn’t construct tracks all over hell’s half Peter acre and thus confuse the Warland hell out of me. But I am losing the battle. I have a grand-daughter that helps selling bicycles in Vancouver. The prices that folk pay for their machines are incredible enough but, when extras like helmets, goggles, stretch pants and tops, shoes, pedals, wheels and saddles are added, some enthusiasts must end up like toucans: no matter which way they face, they always have huge bills in front of them. Then they — not the toucans — must go out into the countryside and use those bikes; I wish they’d stay in town. Quite a few years ago we met some old friends in the Austrian Alps and planned to stroll over a couple of passes to a distant lake. Unfortunately, the two parties became separated and so my beloved and I set off across country to find the others. Big mistake! We weren’t exactly arrested but

did get some fierce-sounding German abuse. We were supposed to stay on the track and not wander willy-nilly and make new trails. That was verboten. In retrospect, it was probably a good idea for crowded Europe. What attracted my lovely wife and me to this valley, here in the Kootenays, was the lack of tracks. We were not fond of beaten trails; we preferred to find our way into the mountains; we liked being able to feel like explorers; there was a little of David Thompson in us both. We followed a lot of game trails back then. Game trails are sensible; they go somewhere. They are purposeful and that purpose is not exercise nor blatant exhibitionism. If we humans wish to cross a mountain chain, penetrate a thicket or a swamp, we must go where the wild animals have gone; they don’t rush around in circles for exercise. But what I fear might be happening is that, like me, wild animals are starting to follow the bicycle tracks and are thus committed to walking aimlessly in circles until, dizzily confused, they drift into town where they are likely to be culled. My very old friend, George, often asks the rhetorical question, “If it’s tourist season, why can’t we shoot them?” That is the way that I feel about those that make new tracks in the community forest for their bicycles and thus confuse this doddery codger. Then I wonder if those Austrians felt the way George does.

United Way

Opinion/Events Letters to the Editor

Each year companies, organizations and hundreds of individuals show their commitment to people in our communities by supporting the United Way throughout our region. The 2013 campaign, although not yet finalized, has surpassed the $115,000 goal which means 2014 community investments will increase impacting the lives of many in our communities. The substantial time and resources from all of our volunteers, donors, agencies, and business community proves how much can be accomplished when we work together. On behalf of the community, our thanks go out to the people and organizations that helped to make giving a way of life through: • employee contributors in the workplace; • affiliated labour unions; • volunteers in the workplace (our employee campaign coordinators); • Leadership Givers (donors who contribute $500 or more annually to United Way); • corporate donors; • foundation donors; • committed individual donors outside the workplace (retirees, philanthropists and direct mail recipients); • community volunteers — those who volunteer directly for United Way or with an affiliate agency; • in-kind supporters providing equipment and services at no charge; and • sponsors of our special events. United Way donors and contributors are strengthening families, nurturing healthy and successful children, ensuring dignity and inclusion for individuals struggling with personal, emotional and physical challenges, and enabling seniors to remain involved and active in our communities. Our capacity to serve communities de-

pends on the leadership from individuals and groups that form the very essence of communities. Working with these individuals, we are committed to addressing the causes of our most critical social issues. Our shifting economy has had a significant impact on everyone. United Way recognizes this fact and applauds the continued support of employees, businesses and individuals. This support will increase community investments, allow real successes to continue, and make lasting changes in people’s lives and in our communities. Our thanks again from the board of directors and staff, to all of you who have made the commitment to make our communities a better place for everyone – because we believe in our community; we believe in possibility! Thank you for choosing to make a difference in the lives of many, every day! Donna Brady Fields Executive Director United Way of Cranbrook and Kimberley

Targeting youth

We are writing in regard to the growing amount of flavoured tobacco products available today. With National Non-Smoking Week upon us, we feel it is important to address this concern specifically because of the way these products are being marketed towards youth. When you hear the flavours cherry, pear, apple, chocolate, etc., tobacco products probably don’t immediately come to mind, but these flavours and many more are available in a wide variety of tobacco products. Elaborate colourful packaging is used to make products much more enticing. With our research it’s become very clear to us just how obvious the tobacco industry gears the marketing of these products to youth. Flavours help to mask the taste of tobacco and

to make smoking more appealing. Products are also available individually at a price for less than a toonie, so youth can easily afford them. Parental awareness is crucial, as many parents may not even recognize a tobacco product in their child’s bag, because they look so similar to makeup, markers and candy products. Smoking rates are decreasing, so, to make up for losses, tobacco companies have invested billions of dollars in products to get youth hooked. When the federal government’s Bill C-32 was passed in 2009, it made it illegal for tobacco products under the weight of 1.4g and with a filter to be flavoured. The tobacco companies increased the weight and removed the filter in some products to get around this law. Statistics show that 61 per cent of all youth aged 15-19 who smoke are using flavoured tobacco such as menthols, smokeless tobacco, or little cigars know as cigarillos. As nursing students, we find this is extremely concerning. We see the devastating effects smoking has on people. Lung cancer alone causes more deaths than breast, colorectal, and prostate cancer combined. A large majority of the patients we care for, who have other health problems such as cardiac disease, stroke, and lung disease, are or were previously smokers. We would like to see a ban on all flavoured tobacco products. We feel our government has a responsibility to protect the health of our youth, and we feel that if these “starter” tobacco products were no longer available, youth would be less inclined to try them, thereby reducing risk of addiction and ultimately decreasing the rates of adult smokers and the harmful complications caused by long-term smoking.

Striking fear in parents everywhere

Thursday, January 23, 2014

Kirsten Hildebrand

perating on a hot tip, I grabbed my headlamp and a fine-toothed comb and hunched over a head of hair. Another head of hair and a half hour later, I breathed a big sigh of relief, panic subsiding. We were lice free. Considering the fact that we are in the midst of cold and flu season with H1N1 and H1N-whatever floating around, capturing headlines and even lives, it seems ridiculous the amount of stress the threat of a few little bugs caused. I am new to the land of lice with my first experience with the Wee Beasties (timely Robbie Burns reference, eh?) happening at the tail end of last summer. My three kids returned home after some time with family, a few creatures stowed away in their hair and I learned the true meaning of the words annoying, nuisance, persistent, among a few others that my newspaper doesn’t print and my children don’t often hear. Several rounds of costly shampoo and daily nit picking from two heads of hair (my son escaped the drama with his summer head shave) and we passed our initiation into a club whose members seem reluctant to admit their association. Truly ironic considering the other day my friend said to me, “I think I may have that H1N1 virus.” I sat sharing the same air as my coughing compadre without so much as batting an eye. Yet, had she said, “I’ve got lice,” I would

have plopped her pompom-ed toque on the top of her head and bid her adieu. Why does lice have such a bad rap? In the midst of our lice outbreak my nightly reading consisted of Googled articles on lice. I learned they’re not dangerous and don’t spread disease. They’ve got short stumpy legs rendering even walking a challenge. They do not fly or jump. They’re not even considered a medical problem. In some cultures, people just live with lice. Cleopatra is said to have had her own solid gold lice comb — how sophisticated! Sophisticated! What?! I think we’ve become a society obsessed with a misguided standard of cleanliness where bugs mean dirtiness. Head lice aren’t creatures that infest the dirty. In fact, I believe my family had previously resisted the bug for so long because of our anti-shampooing policy. (It’s kind of a loose policy.) And getting lice doesn’t mean you have to clean your house from top to bottom. During the six weeks we had lice, I often heard other misguided statements such as all teddy bears go in the freezer, vacuum all the furniture — daily — and launder everything. None of these things were necessary to rid our heads of lice. The rice-sized creatures don’t like to leave the scalp. They really don’t. That’s where they eat and they gotta eat to live. All these things considered, why does lice still take its toll on families — socially, emotionally and psychologically? Why does the thought of lice in our lives create more

panic than illness that knocks a person out for days? Sure, it’s part stigma — and education and awareness, simply standing up and admitting to having lice, helps. But I think we’ve also become a society that doesn’t have time for a nuisance — a creepy, crawly nuisance. Surprisingly, taking time with my girls each day wasn’t a complete nuisance. With strands of hair in hand, we talked, listened to music and sometimes they read to me. Often we complained to each other but while dealing with lice was at times frustrating, we also bonded as a family tackling a new challenge together. We even captured specimens to watch under magnifying glass, which demystified the beast. I had fun throwing around the terms louse and nitpicker. In the end, nitpicking was the answer and I was pleased that for once, being a nitpicking mom was the solution to our dilemma. So, coughs and Kleenex in hand I return to my recent alarm and remind myself that, “Meh, it’s just lice.” Let’s lose the stigma, gain some perspective and try to panic a little less. Sharing our matter-of-fact stories is just a start. Disclaimer: While lice have been disambiguated for me, bed bugs are another matter. Freak me out. That’s all… Kirsten Hildebrand is a reporter with the Nelson Star

NASHVILLE - The Nashville Predators have swapped defencemen with the New York Rangers, sending Kevin Klein to New York in exchange for Michael Del Zotto. The Predators announced the trade Wednesday before heading to Vancouver for a four-game road swing. Del Zotto, 23, has 11 points in 42 games for the Rangers averaging 17 minutes, 44 seconds of ice time per game. The 6-foot, 195-pound Del Zotto was the 20th overall choice by the Rangers in the 2008 draft, and he has 121 career points in 292 career NHL games. Klein, 29, was the 37th choice overall in 2003 by Nashville and has played 403 games in nine NHL seasons. He has three points in 47 games this season and ranks 22nd in the NHL with 94 blocked shots.

Yankees agree to $155 million, 7-year contract with pitcher Masahiro Tanaka NEW YORK - Yankees co-chairman Hank Steinbrenner says the team has agreed to a $155 million, seven-year contract with prized Japanese pitcher Masahiro Tanaka. Along with the contract, first reported by Fox, the Yankees must pay a $20 million fee to the Japanese team of the 25-year-old right-hander, the Rakuten Golden Eagles. Tanaka caps an off-season that saw the Yankees add Jacoby Ellsbury, Brian McCann and Carlos Beltran. Steinbrenner said Wednesday that “we had to make sure we had enough pitching to go together with our new lineup.” Big league teams had until Friday to reach an agreement with Tanaka, who was 24-0 with a 1.27 ERA last year as the Golden Eagles won the Japan Series title.

ASPEN, Colo. - Shaun White is out again for the Winter X Games. After making the trip to Aspen, even making a practice run or two, the 13-time X Games snowboarding titlist decided against competing this week. He had originally said he was out, then changed his mind and entered. Then, on Wednesday, he pulled out again. He says the schedule wouldn’t allow him to train the way he wants to for the Olympics, where he’ll compete in slopestyle qualifying Feb. 6 - the day before the Opening Ceremony. Associated Press

Wild in action at basketball tournaments TRE VOR CR AWLEY Sports Editor

The Mount Baker Wild basketball teams were in action this weekend at separate tournaments—the boys in Kimberley, while the girls had home court advantage in Cranbrook. The boys ended up in third place with two wins and a loss while playing in Selkirk Secondary, home of the Storm. Wild head coach Shaun Penner said the eight-team tournament

was a good gauge for exposing his squad’s weaknesses. “It really showed a lot of stuff we need to work on. Mostly our mental game and being confident in our abilities, being a little quicker with the ball in transition,” Penner said. However, he added he has also noticed improvements in rebounds, defence and scoring. The first win was a 58-48 victory over Fernie Secondary, followed up a close loss against

Prince Charles Secondary out of Creston. “They’re a deep team, they got size, they got speed, they got ball handling, they can shoot, they can play defence—I was impressed,” said Penner, of his Creston opponents. “We should’ve been in that game, we lost by 10.” The Wild capped off their tournament by taking third place with a 67-61 win over David Thompson Secondary out of Invermere, pull-

ing ahead after their opponents went down a few bodies on the court after fouling out. “The game was close to begin with,” said Penner. “When they went down a man, it was virtually tied at that point.” The girls were in their home gym at Mount Baker Secondary, where they played three games with one win and two losses. Their first game against Fernie featured a good offensive start, but they were unable to keep up the pressure,

according to coach Al Nutini. The Wild followed up with an overtime victory over David Thompson Secondary, and ended the tournament with a loss to J.L. Crowe out of Trail. Despite the two losses, Nutini is noticing good things from all his players throughout every game. “I’m not unhappy with where it’s at, because there was some real upside to how we played, but it just wasn’t consistent,” said Nutini.

Na defeats Bouchard at Aussie Open semifinals C anadian Press

MELBOURNE, Australia - Montreal’s Eugenie Bouchard is out of the Australian Open. China’s Li Na defeated Bouchard 6-2, 6-4 on Thursday in the semifinal of the women’s singles tournament. The 19-year-old Bouchard is the first Canadian woman to reach the final four of a Grand Slam tournament in 30 years. No. 4-seeded Li, the 2011 French Open champion, is the only major winner and the highest-ranked player still in contention after the fourth-round upsets

of Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova. Defending champion Victoria Azarenka’s lost in the quarter-final to Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland. No. 5-seeded Radwanska was playing Dominika Cibulkova in the second semifinal later Thursday. Li, who lost last year’s final to Azarenka, was aggressive from the start against Bouchard, who started nervously and didn’t win a point in her first three service games. Fittingly, she finished off the match with a backhand crosscourt, one of 16 backhand win-

ners in the match and her biggest weapon against Bouchard. Earlier in the day, Toronto’s Daniel Nestor and Serbian partner Nenad Zimonjic were beaten by American Eric Butorac and Raven Klaasen of South Africa 6-2, 6-4 in the semifinal of the men’s doubles tournament. The defeat leaves the 41-year-old Nestor to concentrate on the mixed-doubles event after winning 12 straight matches and winning Australian titles in Brisbane and Sydney with two different partners. “This was a little bit of

a let down, but all credit to them,” said Nestor. “They came out firing an showed why they were in the semifinals. They were going for their shots and making them. “They played really well, very aggressive. We started slow and that probably gave them confidence.” The match lasted just 64 minutes, with Zimonjic losing serve twice in the opening set. Nestor, holder of a record 83 career doubles titles, was unable to carry the entire load as he and Zimonjic re-united this season after a few seasons with other partners.

NHLers heading to Sochi Games concerned over security Joshua Clipperton Canadian Press

VANCOUVER - Roberto Luongo won’t have any family joining him next month when he suits up for Canada at the Winter Olympics. The same goes for Sweden’s Daniel Sedin. The Vancouver Canucks teammates are both concerned over security at the Games in Sochi, Russia, after a series of threats and terrorist attacks in the region. Two suicide bombers killed 34 people in the southern Russian city of Volgograd in December, and officials say they are hunting three more potential attackers - including one believed to be in Sochi. “It’s definitely on my mind, I’m not going to lie,” Luongo said after practice on Wednesday. “I think we’re all a little bit concerned. We’re definitely going to keep an eye on it over the next few weeks.” Sedin, who is set to

compete for Sweden along with his twin brother Henrik, said he was “absolutely” concerned about the news coming out of Russia, including email threats on Wednesday against a handful of European countries set to participate at the Olympics. The threats were largely dismissed as a hoax, but the concern over security in Sochi is serious. “We talk about it quite a bit. It’s nothing you can really joke about,” said Sedin. “It’s in the back of your head for sure.” Luongo, the odds on favourite to start for Canada in its first game Feb. 13 against Norway, and Sedin both said safety is the main reason their families won’t be travelling to Russia. Sedin added that if family members wanted to join him and his brother, he would discourage them from making the trip. An Islamic militant group in Dagestan -

which is located about 500 kilometres from Sochi - claimed responsibility for the bombings in Volgograd in a video posted on Sunday. The video also contained a threat to strike the Olympics. Penguins captain Sidney Crosby voiced similar concerns to those of Luongo and Sedin to reporters in Pittsburgh on Sunday. “Obviously everybody watches the news and knows that there’s been things happening

fairly close to there,” said Crosby, who will captain the Canadian team. “From what we’ve been told, I think they’re going to do everything they can to make sure it’s safe and secure. We’re going over to play and focus on that. “It’s not something everyone’s totally worried about, but I think it’s hard not to think about it when things are happening kind of close to there.” Toronto Maple Leafs

forward James van Riemsdyk, who will suit up for the United States in Sochi, said back in December that American hockey officials told him that security will be “very tight.” “I know they mentioned things about different actions they were going to take as far as making sure everything’s secure,” he said. “It seemed like they were on top of all that.” Minnesota Wild defenceman Ryan Suter,

who will also play for the Americans, said after practice Wednesday that his wife and two young children won’t be travelling to Russia. The long trip is part of the reason, but Suter said recent news about terrorist threats made the decision “a little bit easier.” Another American Olympian, Suter’s friend and Wild teammate Zach Parise, also advised his parents and relatives not to come. He said the situation is

“nerve wracking, that’s for sure.” Chicago Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane’s parents travelled to Vancouver in 2010 to cheer for him and Team USA. He said Wednesday his mother, a sister and his girlfriend are planning to come to Russia, despite the safety concerns. “They understand what’s going on,” Kane said. “It’s their choice to go over there, and they wanted to. I’ll take the support for sure.”

Cycling boss raises prospect of cutting Armstrong’s suspension Associated Press

ADELAIDE, Australia - The new president of cycling’s world body says Lance Armstrong’s lifetime ban for doping cold be reduced if he provides information which assists other doping investigations. Brian Cookson became UCI president in September and established the Cycling Independent Reform Commission which will examine the history of doping in professional cycling

and probe allegations the UCI conspired to cover up doping activity. Cookson said the commission’s terms of reference might include an agreement with the World Anti-Doping Agency and the United States Anti-Doping Agency to reduce sanctions on cyclists who co-operate with the inquiry. He said “there will be the possibility of a reduction” in Armstrong’s case if he provides

information which assists any investigation but stressed the UCI does not have the power to make such a deal. “It all depends on what information Lance has and what he’s able to reveal,” Cookson said. “Actually that’s not going to be in my hands. He’s been sanctioned by USADA. “They would have to agree to any reduction in his sanction based on the validity and strength of the information that

he provided. If they’re happy, if WADA are happy, then I will be happy.” Cookson the three members of the commission including Australian Peter Nicholson, a specialist investigator, were insistent their investigation would be thorough and impartial. “They don’t want their own personal reputation damaged by any hint of a suggestion that they’ve been involved in - let’s call it a whitewash,” he said.

B.C. economy should rebound, Business Council says

Tom Fletcher Black Press

A lower Canadian dollar and a slow recovery in the U.S. and around the world bode well for the B.C. economy in the next two years, a new report from the Business Council of B.C. says.

“The U.S. economy is gaining ground, the Eurozone is out of recession, and Asia, particularly China, continues to expand at a robust clip,” said executive vice president Jock Finlayson as he released the BCBC economic outlook report Tuesday. “The

weakening of the Canadian dollar relative to the U.S. dollar will also help lift B.C.’s export of goods and services to the U.S., prompt more U.S. travellers to come to B.C., and serve as a headwind to cross-border shopping.” The report forecasts improvement in U.S. demand for lumber and other building materials, wood pulp and even natural gas, which has fallen to historic lows with a surge of shale gas production around North America. Recovery of the struggling B.C. coastal forest industry was echoed at last week’s Truck Log-

gers’ Association convention. “I’ve got a desk covered with resumes of people who work in the oil patch,” said Don Banasky, operations manager at CopCan Contracting Ltd. and FallTech Logging in Nanaimo and vice-president of the TLA. Banasky said there are openings for road building, driller-blaster, grader and excavator operators in his operations, and some employees at remote oil and gas developments are anxious to work closer to home. The BCBC report holds out hope for a B.C.

government that has seen its much-advertised jobs plan fizzle in the past two years. “Following essentially no net employment growth in 2013, we see the B.C. job market recovering in the coming year,” the report says. “Growing exports, higher non-residential construction outlays and some increase in consumer spending will translate into greater demand for working and more hiring by B.C. businesses.” The report forecasts that two liquefied natural gas processing plants and pipelines to supply them will begin in 2015.

C anadian Press

OTTAWA — The Bank of Canada is maintaining its key interest rate at one per cent, where it’s been for more than three years during a weak economic recovery from the last recession. But the central bank is lowering its forecast for inflation,

even though the economy is showing signs of improvement. It says Canadian inflation has been lower than expected and won’t return to its ideal target for about two years. The bank says Canada’s economic growth in the second half of 2013 was better

than expected — rising to 2.5 per cent in the fourth quarter. For the full year, the bank is projecting the economy grew by 1.8 per cent in 2013 and will pick up to 2.5 per cent in both 2014 and 2015. It says stronger demand in the United States as well as the lower Canadian dollar should

help boost exports, which will also improve business confidence and investment. The bank says it will make its next interest rate announcement on March 5 and release its updated outlook for the economy and inflation — including risks to the projection — on April 16.

Wowed by Huatulco!

Mountain City Travel’s Diane Manson tests out a few of the 36 beaches in Mexico’s Huatulco region

uatulco (pronounced ‘wahTOOL-co”) is an unspoiled gem nestled on the south-west coast of Mexico, at the base of the Sierra Madre Mountains. Here, where the mountains meet the Pacific Ocean, you’ll find 36 stunning beaches tucked into nine bays. There’s no shortage of places to explore and stunning visuals in Huatulco. Jump aboard a catamaran, or hire a boat to take you out on the water for the day. Most of Huatulco’s shoreline is accessible by water only. The beaches are pristine and vary from tiny coves to huge sand dunes. The colours vary: you’ll find deep azure blue, turquoise, and clear emerald green. Spend some time walking these secluded beaches; you’ll likely be

the only soul leaving footprints. Colourful fish, coral, eels, and blowfish are a few of the underwater snorkelling delights you’ll find in the warm waters of Huatulco. Keep your eyes peeled: if you’re lucky you may find yourself alongside a decent sized sea turtle! Be sure to take time to have lunch at a little beachfront palapa village, where the catch of the day was caught just a few hours earlier. The backdrop of the Sierra Madres provides perfect coffee growing conditions. Pluma Hidalgo is the finest of organic javas, sought by European coffee drinkers. Hike through a plantation and see how the beans are separated, dried and roasted. Deep sea fishing awaits the fishing enthu-

siast. If you’re a birder you’re in ornithology country. When kayaking or paddle boarding, be sure to take a mask and snorkel; this way you’ll never miss a snorkelling opportunity. You can even visit Copalita, an archeological site recently opened to the public. The two small towns of Santa Cruz (small port town) and La Crucecita (a few kilometres inland) offer shopping, restaurants, beautiful town squares and lovely local churches. Shopping finds include beautiful Mexican silver, hand-loomed textiles, organic coffee, chocolate and colourfully painted animal art. Be sure to sample the local specialties – Oaxacoan cheese, Mezcal and Chapulines (roasted grasshoppers, which are

crunchy, salty and earthy tasting). Travel consultant Diane Manson just returned from Huatulco. “Huatulco is friendly, safe, and the weather is consistently sunny and warm! The locals highly respect the land, water, birds and marine life. The area is ‘clean as a whistle’ – where you’re hard pressed to find even a scrap of litter. This unspoiled coastline of Mexico is a real gem. I can hardly wait to go back!” Contact Mountain City Travel, 1-877-4272233, 250-427-2233, email: travel@mcity.ca.

Come to your own emotional rescue Hello Wendy: I have wanted to write to you for some time now but didn’t seem to have the courage. My mom and I have had a lot of problems and I was wondering if we would be talking anytime soon? She is not a bad mom — she doesn’t drink or take drugs — but I feel she is severe with me most of the times when we talk. We always fight when we are together and it upsets me. I also want to ask about my grandpa in heaven — is he doing okay? My grandma and I are close and she gets sad when she talks about grandpa not being here anymore. I have been thinking of going back to school and doing something with my life — do you see that happening? I haven’t had good relationships with the men in my life. I am taking your advice that you give others in your columns, and that is not to pursue a relationship with a man until I know who I am. I recently broke up with my

boyfriend and I am thinking that wasn’t a good idea. What do you and your guides think? Feeling Forlorn Dear Feeling Forlorn: We did a spec on your mom. I wanted to check if she was on drugs or drinks a lot of alcohol and the answer was no. I also checked on her health and she seems fairly healthy but my guides say her nerves are not the best at this time. I think your mom has had a hard life and your dad wasn’t the best when it came to being a loving and kind husband. We don’t see them together at this time. I’m glad she finally saw the light, as they say, with your dad. We picked up he was rather verbally abusive with her. However, your question was: will you be talking and having a personal relationship with your mom in the near future? The answer I received from my guides is in or around 2018. I know you miss your mom and talking to her, and

ASK WENDY Wendy Evano you can change this prediction if you can change your attitude with your mom. You say your mom is severe. Well, we say your mom gets rather angry when you lie to her like you do. That’s why she gets frustrated and seems so severe with you. You have been playing your games with your mom since you were a teenager and she is tired of it. You need to be accountable for your actions and you don’t want to do that at this time. We feel one day you will be a mom and don’t forget what goes around comes around. It’s time to stop playing games with your mom and treat her with the respect she deserves. We all know our moms drive us crazy because they are always telling us to be careful and trying to protect us as best they can.

ary! u n a J y in Qualif

This young man is tall and rather slender, looks like he has brown hair. So perhaps grandma will know whom I am talking about. You and I both know that your last relationship with this young man was going nowhere. Yes, we think it would be a good idea for you to go back to school. You are working in a job that hardly supports you monetarily. We also feel that you are afraid to fail, but if you don’t fail in your life then you aren’t living in the real world. We all fail, that’s how we learn.

So, go back to school, start being accountable for what you do and say to yourself and others, and start respecting yourself and your mom. This means get educated; get a different, more positive attitude and stop waiting for a man to come to your emotional rescue. You need to come to your own emotional rescue. That is one of your lessons. Wendy

Deep inside we know when we hear the truth it aggravates us or makes us scared. We take it out on our moms, because who likes to hear the truth? However, good old mom has put up with the rants and raves and rejections from you because she wants you to be the best you can be and have a good life. So for your sake as well as your mom’s go and apologize to her and tell her you are sorry. If you can see that and have some respect for her then I think things will be different in your relationship between you and her. When she’s starting to drive you crazy just give her a kiss, tell her you love her and then go home and think about what she is saying. You don’t have to fight with her all the time — if you disagree with her you can just do what you want, which you do anyway. Your grandpa is doing fine in heaven. Tell your grandma he is fishing with a young man and I think it is someone in the family that passed over at an early age.

Dragonboaters donate another $3,000 to Starlite and breast cancer care COURTESY DONNA GR AINGER

Their commitment to supporting breast cancer care never ceases.

the women involved with the Abreast in the Rockies Dragonboat team is so rewarding. It is also gratifying to know our foundation supports their commitment to giving back.” Over the past decade the Dragonboaters have directed some of its fundraising proceeds to support breast cancer care initiatives at the East Kootenay Regional Hospital. Some of the memorable projects the paddlers have reinforced include a refurbishment of the EKRH oncology unit, funding to help purchase a node biopsy probe for the EKRH Surgical Team and most recently its visible and financial support for the A Clear View — digital mammography campaign. The Starlite Campaign is entering its final week with the stars fading away at the end of January.

Annual Winterfest back in Yahk on Jan. 25 CRESTON VALLEY ADVANCE

On Jan. 25, the Yahk Kingsgate Recreation Society is hosting its seventh annual Winterfest, an event that celebrates community with the emphasis on family fun. With the support of the Columbia Basin Trust, Regional District of Central Kootenay Area B and other donors, the event is still admission-free for all to enjoy. The day will start at 2 p.m. with outdoor

snow bocce and more — plus prizes! For those looking for something a little more relaxing, there will be hayrides throughout the day. Food always is a big hit, starting with the outdoor kitchen with hotdogs and hot chocolate, followed at 5:30 p.m. with an orange or parmesan chicken dinner and dessert. For some, this is where the event swings into high gear with the entertainment and raffle draws, including a logging truck load of firewood ($1,200 value), 10 frozen chickens and an Overwaitea Foods gift certificate. The proceeds go toward replacing the roof on the Yahk-Kingsgate Community Hall. This year, the headlining act is Jason Scott’s Diamond Forever: A Celebration of Neil Diamond at 7 p.m. And, of course, Zak the Yak will be around all day long, providing its own brand of entertainment and frivolity.

Alex...

hails from Kimberley and has been stylin’ for over four years now. She has recently returned from a busy salon in Calgary. She looks forward to meeting you and creating the right cut for you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) A meeting might take place in the morning. By the afternoon, you will seek out individuals rather than groups. Use your intuition when dealing with a feisty partner. How you see a situation could change because of a conversation. Tonight: Avoid sending mixed messages. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Complete a good amount of work by midday. An associate, partner or loved one could demand a lot of attention in the afternoon. You know what you want, but the other party might not be as sure. A discussion could be difficult, as a result. Tonight: Mix friends and fun. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Tap into your imagination in the morning, when an idea is more likely to serve you. Late afternoon presents a different outlook and a far more demanding schedule. A boss might be eyeing your performance. Do not disappoint him or her. Tonight: Clear out as fast as you can.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your temper could rise to the surface in the morning, yet by the afternoon, you might forget what had upset you. Your imagination fills in the gaps and easily can find a solution. Tap into your instincts regarding a child or loved one. You will know what to do. Tonight: All smiles. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Return calls, make time for a meeting and handle as much as you can in the morning. By the afternoon, you will want to become less available. You might have a situation on your mind that you need to sort out. Give yourself some extra time to reflect. Tonight: At home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Be aware of what someone else expects, because you don’t want to disappoint this person. In some form, you could send mixed signals. To keep that from happening, be clear with yourself before you act on a personal matter. Tonight: Meet a friend for munchies. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Get a head start on your day,

if possible. If an important matter must be handled, do it the morning. By the afternoon, your concerns might change. A discussion about finances seems inevitable. Be aware of a certain insecurity that seems to control you. Tonight: Your treat. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could feel off in the morning and wonder why you are proceeding the way you are. Stop. Think things through, and take your time. You could feel a lot differently about the same situation a little later. A family member tends to drag you down. Tonight: At home. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Dealings with others are highlighted. You need a better sense of direction and an idea of what you want. If you are straightforward, others are likely to respond in kind. Use the afternoon for doing some quiet work, and perhaps make a call or two. Tonight: Do your vanishing act. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Several associates will seek you out for advice. Right now, you need to take a strong stance.

Don’t allow anyone to distract you. Understanding will evolve later in the day. A meeting could allow you to share recent events and news. Tonight: Start the weekend early. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be making an important decision before you know it. Your take-charge attitude will pay off quickly. Don’t hesitate to stay on top of a key situation, as no one else cares about your interests as much as you do. Tonight: Loosen up, and enjoy what is happening with a friend. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A direct conversation establishes a connection, but not necessarily an agreement. You could be in for a fast change if you are not careful. How you deal with a friend or loved one might change, given a different perspective. Detach. Tonight: Only where there is music.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I was married for 30 years to a man I loved deeply. I know perfectly well he is not perfect (who is?) and saw him struggle to control his temper and sharp tongue. He had a schizophrenic father and an alcoholic mother. They divorced when he was about 10, and he bounced from foster home to foster home. He slept in alleys and ate from garbage cans. He was deeply loving, fiercely protective and faithful. He had compassion for the downtrodden and often gave away food, clothing and money to the less fortunate. I loved his heart of “pure mush,” as he put it. Unfortunately, my family only saw his quick temper and said he was only using me for my money. He always worked, just at lower-paying jobs, and we learned to live with less so we could give more away. They never saw the generous things he did. When he died, I notified both families and received no condolences whatsoever. His family has never acknowledged his passing. My family members seem intent on degrading him in front of our mutual friends and me. These are people who claim they care about me, but I wonder. Why won’t they let the man rest in peace and leave me with my loving memories, instead of trying to justify their apparent hostility? He’s dead now and can’t aggravate them anymore. How can I get them to stop? -- Still Loving My One and Only Dear Still: You have to tell them and make it stick. If your relatives begin denigrating your late husband, respond with: “Please stop saying terrible things about someone I loved. It makes my grieving more difficult.” Don’t lose your temper or cry. Simply make your statement, and if they continue to say unkind things, get up and leave. Eventually, they will stop, but at least you won’t have to listen to their comments in the meantime. Our condolences on your loss. Dear Annie: My daughter has never let me meet my grandson. He was born in May, and the last time I saw my daughter was in March when I hosted a baby shower. She and her boyfriend don’t believe in God. I asked them whether they would bless the child, but they became angry. She is really breaking my heart. I can’t believe she is so evil. What can I do to resolve this? Dear Grandma: People who are deeply religious often do not understand how offensive their religious demands are to people who do not share their beliefs. By asking your daughter to bless the child, you were showing disrespect for her and her boyfriend. We know you strongly disagree with their approach to raising their child, but it is not your decision to make. If you ever hope to have a relationship with your grandchild, you will need to demonstrate to your daughter that you can be trusted not to undermine her parental authority. Dear Annie: Thank you for your poignant answer to “In Love With Another Man,” the foolish married woman who has reconnected with an old flame. I, too, had an overly close relationship with a man despite a perfectly good marriage. Circumstances in my life made me emotionally fragile, and “the other man” set off sparks that had only vaguely smoldered in the marital day-today. Long conversations with a counselor made me realize that “the other man” had all sorts of traits that would be repugnant to me if it weren’t for the excitement and the romance of the fling, and I eventually found my way back to the man I married. I pray “In Love” follows your excellent advice and does the same. -- Never More in Love Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Date: Monday, January 27

C ANADIAN PRESS

REGINA — A member of the Saskatchewan RCMP has made an appearance on the Katie Couric show in New York City. Cpl. Doug Green told the story Tuesday of how a drone helped save the life of a driver in a single vehicle rollover near St. Denis, Sask., in May 2013. Green told Couric that the 25-year-old man called 911 but couldn’t direct officers to his location because he had become disoriented and got lost in the woods in freezing temperatures. With the help of SaskTel, police used the GPS location of that phone call to narrow the search area closer to

It wasn’t surprising that nearly 90 per cent of the oldest students said they had photo Courtesy Katie Couric Show their own cellphone, RCMP Cpl.

ARBUCKLE, Mary 1925 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 2014

In the early morning hours of Thursday, January 16, 2013, Mary Arbuckle passed away peacefully at the Kimberley Special Care Home (The Pines) at the age of 88 years. Mary was born on March 14, 1925 in Fernie, BC. Mary always loved to cook and feed us all so well. She truly loved her garden and what she could harvest from it for her children. Our family enjoyed many of her delicious home-cooked meals. Mary was widowed at a very young age and was left to raise her family of four children on her own. To help make ends meet, she worked as a hairdresser for a time. Life wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always easy for her, but she did her best. Mary leaves to mourn her passing her four children; Tom (Betty), Colin, David and Melanie as well as nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren. A special thank you to the staff at The Pines for everything they did for our Mother. Your kindness is truly appreciated. At Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s request, there will be no funeral service. A private family gathering will take place in the spring. Condolences may be left for the family at www. markmemorial.com Mark Memorial Funeral Services in care of arrangements (250) 426-4864

Photo of twin toilets at Sochi goes viral in Russia Associated Press

SOCHI, Russia — At least one Olympic bathroom seems to be flush with toilets. When BBC reporter Steve Rosenberg went to use the bathroom at the cross-country skiing and biathlon centre for next month’s Winter Olympics in Sochi, he found two toilets but only one stall. His tweeted picture instantly became a national joke. Although toilets like that are not common in Russia, social media users posted photos of other side-byside toilets, including ones in a courthouse and a One for Vladimir, one for cafe. Dmitry He posted a photo showing two urinals and three toilets in a large room. Russians jested that the toilets in Sochi were designed for a “tandem,’’ the name used to describe the duo of President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev. One popular blogger altered Rosenberg’s photo to put in a framed portrait of the two leaders above the toilets. In a nod to the tight security measures imposed in Sochi for the Winter Olympics, another joke has it that the second toilet was for a Russian security officer. The Sochi organizing committee refused to comment on the picture. The games run from Feb. 7-23.

Space telescope spies water plumes on dwarf planet Ceres Alicia Chang Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The largest object in the asteroid belt just got more attractive: Scientists have confirmed signs of water on the dwarf planet Ceres, one of the few bodies in the solar system to hold that distinction. Peering through the Herschel Space Observatory, a team led by the European Space Agency detected water plumes spewing from two regions on Ceres. The observations, published in Thursday’s issue of Nature, come as NASA’s Dawn spacecraft is set to arrive at the Texas-sized dwarf planet next year. It’s long been suspected that Ceres is water-rich, but previous detections have been inconclusive. This is the first definitive evidence of water on Ceres and confirms that it has an icy surface, said lead author Michael Kuppers of the European Space Agency. “It makes Ceres a more exciting target’’ for exploration, he said.

The latest finding puts Ceres in a special class of solar system objects with active plumes of water, a key ingredient for life. The company includes Jupiter’s moon Europa — where an underground ocean is believed to exist — and the Saturn moon Enceladus, where jets have been seen venting from the surface. The source of the water plumes is still unclear. Scientists think there may be a layer of ice just below the surface that gets heated by the sun or the plumes could be spewed by ice volcanoes. Dawn won’t be in the best position to witness any water activity since it’ll arrive at a time when Ceres is far from the sun. But the spacecraft carries instruments that can detect water and it will map the dwarf planet in detail, said Dawn deputy project scientist Carol Raymond, who had no role in the research. Launched in 2007 and powered by ion propulsion, Dawn is the first spacecraft to orbit two space rocks. Ceres is different from

Dawn’s first target, Vesta, the second largest object in the asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter. The zone is littered with rocks left over from the formation of the solar system 4.6 billion years ago, allowing scientists to study how

Earth and the other planets evolved. Unlike Ceres, Vesta is dry and rugged. Its scars reveal it got whacked twice by smaller asteroids. Some of the debris was cast into space and rained on Earth as meteorites.
