Fightin’ season Keep clear of bucks during the autumn rut, City warns ARNE PETRYSHEN
The autumn deer mating period known as rutting is almost upon us here in the Kootenays and the rutting bucks are preparing to strut their stuff, which means keep your distance. The City of Cranbrook is hoping that people will use caution and common sense this fall as the male deer begin their courtship. The mating season is usually in full swing in November and December, but in the preceding weeks bucks increase displays of domi-
nance and indirect threats. The city noted that a dominant buck typically circles a rival with deliberate steps. It has its back arched, its head low and its tail flicking. Bucks can also display dominance by violently thrashing the bushes with their antlers. “We are into a transition period, where some does with fawns remain wary and potentially aggressive toward humans with dogs,” Mayor Wayne Stetski said.

Trap trasher pleads guilty TRE VOR CR AWLEY
One of two people involved with the destruction of deer traps in Cranbrook in February plead guilty last week in Cranbrook provincial court last week. Lucky Sikora, who was charged with mischief to property over $5,000 after the incident, was fined $800 and must pay a victim surcharge of $240 and restitution of $1,000 after pleading guilty, as ordered by Justice Ron Webb. The fines must be paid within one year. Another charge of disguising face with intent to commit an of-
fence was stayed. Devin Kazakoff, who was also charged with the same offences in connection to the destruction of the same deer traps, will appear in Cranbrook provincial court on Oct. 21. In February, 10 deer traps were stolen from a government building in Cranbrook. Six were destroyed by fire in the bush, while three were never recovered. One was eventually located. The city of Kimberley had to cancel a planned deer cull after the traps were destroyed, as the plan relied on their use to capture urban deer.

BA RRY CO U LT E R
Two animal companions are safe and sound after an extended period in the bush, but where they came from and who they belong to is still a mystery. A dog and a cat — unlikely companions in the wild — were found and rescued by a pair of hunters recently. They are currently convalescing at the home of one of the hunters in the Cranbrook area. “They may not have been starving but they were pretty
hungry,” said Diana Magdalin, whose husband Dean was one of the hunters who came across the dog and cat. “Their ribs weren’t sticking when we got them, but they were very hungry. Very stressed and very tired. They had been in their own for a few days, at least.” Diana said that on Sept. 2, Dean and an old friend were out hunting. They were driving down a dirt road in the Ha Ha Creek area when they thought they saw a bear.
“Then they thought it might be a wolf,” Diana said. She said her friend said that if the animal was a wolf, then why wasn’t it eating that cat that was running with it. It was in fact a dog and a cat, loping down the road together. The two hunters pulled up. Diana said the cat came right over and got in the truck, but the dog took some persuading.

invests in three power projects, sharing the income with the Trust, which in turn, uses it’s portion to enhance social economic and environmental well-being of the Columbia Basin. “The impacts and benefits from the Treaty are different in each community in the Basin, so we are encouraging each to choose the appropriate ways to recognize, remember and reflect on this important anniversary in their own way,” said Deb Kozak, Chair of the Columbia River Treaty Local Governments’ Committee. “We also encourage Basin residents to take a few minutes out of their day to recognize this historic date.” The committee works with the provincial government, First Nations, hydroelectric facility operators, and the Columbia Basin
The Columbia River Treaty celebrates it’s 50th anniversary today, Tuesday, Sept. 16. It’s an important milestone based on the benefits to both the Canadian and U.S. governments since its creation and is also notable because its the first date that the two sides can terminate or amend the agreement. Three dams and reservoirs were created as part of the treaty, including the Mica Dam north of Revelstoke, Hugh Keenleyside Dam near Castlegar and the Libby Dam, which created Lake Koocanusa near Cranbrook. The treaty also bore the creation of the Columbia Basin Trust and the Columbia Power Corporation in 1995 after pressure from citizens and local governments. CPC builds and

The Libby Dam in Montana, with Lake Koocanusa Reservoir in the background, is one of three dams created by the Columbia River Treaty. Trust to reduce the impacts of the treaty and manage the benefits for the Basin region. Currently, the committee is working on the creation of a new Columbia Basin Advisory Committee that will be
tasked with soliciting Treaty feedback and input on hydro operations. “Although there have been benefits, it is important to remember the impact the Treaty has had on the affected
areas, and that it continues to impact our communities today,” reminds Karen Hamling, Mayor of the Village of Nakusp and Vice-Chair of the Committee. Tuesday (Sept. 16, 2014) will be an import-
ant day because it is the first date that either side can apply to unilaterally provide notice to amend or terminate the CRT after 60 years. The treaty has no termination date, but either the U.S. or Canada must provide 10
years notice. A local governments committee submitted a report to the provincial and federal governments in December 2013, outlining domestic issues and opportunities regarding the future of the Treaty. A few months later, the B.C. government decided to seek improvements based on a set of 13 principles, which include issues such as flood control and management, ecosystem values, and improved coordination between Canadian and American officials regarding the Libby Dam and Lake Koocanusa operations. The U.S. State department has received a similar report from American officials and discussions between the B.C., Canadian and U.S. governments are anticipated in 2015.

Anyone who lights a campfire must maintain a fireguard by removing flammable debris from around the campfire area. They must also have a hand tool or at least eight litres of water available nearby to properly ex-
Despite the relatively cool weather of last week, open fires remain banned in the Kootenays. “Open fires remain prohibited within the Southeast Fire Centre to help prevent human-caused wildfires and protect public safety,” noted Fanny Bernard, fire information officer at the Southeast Fire Centre. “This prohibition will remain in place until the public is otherwise notified.” The prohibited activities include burning of any waste, slash or other materials; stubble
tinguish the fire. “Please ensure that campfires are not lit or kept burning during windy conditions,” Bernard said. “Make sure the fire is fully extinguished and the ashes are cold to the touch before leaving the area for any length of time.” The prohibition covers all BC Parks, Crown land and private land, but does not apply within the boundaries of a local government that has forest fire prevention bylaws and is serviced by a fire department. Check with local authorities for any other restrictions before lighting a fire.
If you don’t adhere to the prohibition you could be issued a ticket for $345 or, if convicted in court, fined up to $100,000 and sentenced to one year in jail. If the fire causes or contributes to a wildfire, the person responsible may be subject to a penalty of up to $10,000 and be ordered to pay all firefighting and associated costs. The Southeast Fire Centre covers the area extending from the U.S.A. border in the south to Mica Dam in the north and from the Okanagan Highlands and Monashee Mountains in the west to the

Dog and cat rescued from wilderness; owners sought Continued from page 1 “They drove around to all the nearby camps,” Diana said, but nobody knew anything about the animals. Dean brought the dog and cat home, and the SPCA was called. But no one had reported any missing pets. At the moment, Diana and Dean Magdalin are trying to locate the owners of the dog and the cat, but Diana says she and Dean are willing to adopt them if the owners aren’t located. “If something happened to separate them from their owner, we’d love to get them back together. If not, we’d like to keep them.” They have given the dog — a female Bernese Mountain Dog — the name Brandi, and the cat is called Luna. They were fairly lethargic at
first, but each day they have a little more energy. The two animals also get along with the dogs and cats the Magdalins already have, and are very well behaved. “They are very well trained,” Diana said. “Whoever owned them took very good care of them. You can tell both the cat and the dog were very well loved.” Brandi and Luna are also very good friends, it seems. “They really know each other, and get along very well,” Diana said. If you have any information about Brandi and Luna’s owners, please contact the SPCA. With files from Mike Turner/Global News

Bucks strut their stuff during the rut Continued from page 1 “Now we could also see an increase in aggressive activity from the local urban buck population. Residents are reminded to please give deer plenty of
space to move or leave the area.” Stetski recommended finding another route rather than walking near the deer. Acts of deer aggres-
sion where public safety is at risk should be reported to the city or Conservation Officer Services. Both organizations keep track of these instances of aggression.

Young Scots tend to favour independence; older ones say keep things as they are Paul Kelbie Associated Press
GLASGOW — Across Scotland, dinner table talk is getting heated as families argue over how to vote in Scotland’s independence referendum. A generation gap has opened up, with younger voters more inclined to back independence and their elders tending to say they want to remain in the United Kingdom. Support for the status quo is strongest among the over-60s, who worry about the consequences that breaking free would have on pensions, health care and savings; the pro-independence movement is largely being driven by under-40s. Neck-and-neck in the polls, the rival campaigns have called on core supporters to make a last ditch attempt to swing the vote by making the debate a family affair. The young have been urged to visit parents and grandparents to explain why they should support separation. The No camp has launched a counteroffensive by asking seniors to win young hearts and minds with their wisdom. “I was so proud of my grandpa when he told me he was voting Yes that I burst into tears,’’ said 23-year-old Miriam Brett, a campaigner for Generation Yes. “A Yes vote means so much to my generation. We want to let all our grandparents know that their future is secure in our hands, and with a Yes we can build a better future for ourselves and for our children.’’ Some polls suggest the No camp is trailing in every age
BBC
The Saltire in numbers: Scottish flags fly proudly ahead of the Sept. 18 referendum on independence group except the over-60s. Opinion surveys indicate more than 63 per cent of that age group is expected to vote in favour of the union. As older people are more likely to be on the electoral roll, there has been a huge drive to get younger people engaged in the Yes campaign. Interest in the referendum is sky high. A total of 4,285,323 people, or 97 per cent of the voting-age population, have registered to vote in the referendum. That’s an increase of 300,000 compared to registration figures in 2012. The turnout for Thursday’s ballot could exceed 85 per cent, compared to the just over 50 per cent who voted in the last Scottish Parliament elections in 2011, and the 63.8 per cent who turned out for the 2010 British parliamentary election. Many people in the rest of Britain have recently awakened to the possibility that Scotland might leave. Thousands of Union Jack-waving demonstra-
tors gathered in London’s Trafalgar Square on Monday in a last-minute show of affection for England’s neighbour. Among the electorate deciding Scotland’s fate are 124,000 16- and 17-year-olds who will be voting for the first time. Many of these new voters are expected to support independence. But conventional wisdom holds that older voters are more likely to actually cast their ballots, a factor that could help the anti-independence “Better Together’’ campaign. Scottish First Minister Alex Salmond, who leads the pro-independence forces, described the Generation Yes campaign as “inspired’’ and said young voters now have a great excuse to pop around their grandparents’ house for a traditional Sunday lunch. However, with polls suggesting that as many as 40 per cent of families are divided over the referendum — and with at least 20 per cent saying the debate has led to heated family argu-
ments — the art of friendly persuasion has not exactly been easy. “My Dad stopped talking to me when I said I was going to vote Yes,’’ said 21-year-old student Laura Brown. “He even blocked me as a friend on Facebook.’’ The “Better Together’’ camp says older voters have a wealth of experience to impart on younger ones. “Scotland’s 1 million pensioners should use their vote and their voice to remind their children and grandchildren of how the National Health Service and pensions were secured by the power of working together,’’ said former British Prime Minister Gordon Brown, a major figure in the No campaign. “I urge you to use both your vote and your voice to remind your children and grandchildren of suffering endured together, sacrifices made together and achievements earned together with friends, neighbours and relatives in England, Wales and Northern Ireland,’’ Brown said. “Tell them how we fought and won two world wars together.’’ It’s a message that resonates with older voters. “They haven’t lived long enough to see what we have,’’ said Liz Mullen, a 68-year-old retired office worker. “A lot of young people think independence is going to be some sort of miracle cure. ... They think it is some kind of adventure without any risks, but this is not a video game.’’

Two new “Islamic States” A coalition of imams and organisations representing British Muslims has written Prime Minister David Cameron asking him to stop using the phrase “Islamic State”when talking about the new country carved out of Iraq and Syria by Islamist terrorists. That’s what Abu Baqr al Baghdadi, who has proclaimed himself “the caliph of all Muslims and the prince of the believers,” calls his newly conquered territory, but it’s giving ordinary Muslims a bad name. The British Muslim leaders declared that “the media, civic society and governments should refuse to legitimise these ludicrous caliphate fantasies by accepting or propagating this name. We propose that “UnIslamic State” (UIS) could be an accurate and fair alternate name to describe this group and its agenda — and we will begin to call it that.” Good luck with that. But meanwhile two more “UnIslamic States” are being created right now, on Libyan and Nigerian territory: same black flags, same fanaticism and cruelty, even the same ski masks. (It’s a fashion statement.) The city of Maiduguri, the capital of Borno state in northeastern Nigeria, has more than two million people. It is surrounded by the forces of Boko Haram — the name roughly translates as “Western education is forbidden” — and most of the rest of Borno has already fallen under their rule. In fact, the whole north-eastern corner of Nigeria is passing out of the government’s control. Boko Haram’s ultimate goal was the imposition of an Islamic state in Nigeria ever since it began active operations in
2009. It was in touch with al-Qaeda from the start, and later with the jihadi groups in Syria that subsequently turned into ISIS (the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) and finally into the “Islamic State” that now spans those two countries. Only the northern half of Nigeria’s population is Muslim, so that was where Boko Haram’s murders and abductions were concentrated, alit also carried out Gwynne though terrorist bombings in the Christian parts of the Dyer country. 3,600 people were killed in these attacks in the four years to 2013, but then there was a major acceleration: 2,000 more people have been killed in just the first half of this year. From about mid-July, Boko Haram’s leader Abubakar Shekau also changed tactics: instead of hit-and-run raids, he started to take and hold territory. In August, after his fighters captured the town of Gwoza in Borno, he released a video declaring that the area was “now part of the Islamic Caliphate.” He now rules over about three million people in northeastern Nigeria and neighbouring Cameroon. The Nigerian army rarely stands up to Boko Haram’s fighters. Like the Iraqi army, which ran from far smaller numbers of ISIS troops, it is corrupt and badly equipped, but it is also deeply penetrated by Boko Haram sympathisers: last June fifteen senior military officers were found guilty by court martial of passing arms and information to Boko Haram. So Abubakar Shekau may end up ruling much of northern Nigeria. Libya is considerably further down the same track. A civil war broke out between
the various militias left over from the 2011 campaign to overthrow Muammar Gaddafi, the former dictator, shortly after the June election that might — just might — have produced a government that would try to disarm those militias. It has got so bad that almost a third of the Libya’s population, 1.8 million people, has fled the country, mostly seeking shelter in Tunisia. The real divisions between these warring militias are regional and tribal, but a number of them have adopted extreme Islamist ideologies, partly because it guarantees a flow of arms and money from certain governments in the Gulf. These Islamist militias have emerged as the winners both in the savage fighting in western Libya around the capital, Tripoli, and also in the other major city, Benghazi, in the east. In fact, Islamist militias with ISIS-style ideologies now control every city along the Libyan coast except Tobruk, a short distance from the Egyptian border. That is where the new parliament elected in June has taken refuge, and the parliament’s members are living on a hired Greek car ferry that is serving as a floating hotel. The front line starts just west of town – and the next town along the coast, Derna, has been declared an Islamic caliphate. A lot of this is just ideological fashion, of course. The various “caliphates” are in touch with one another, after a fashion, but there is no master plan. However, the results are truly nasty both in Nigeria and in Libya – and the risk of over-reaction by those who feel threatened by these developments, especially in the West, is quite large.

2014 WHL Regular Season Preview: U.S. Division The puck drops on the 2014 WHL regular season Friday, Sept. 19, with seven games on the slate across the league. With help from beat reporters from around the league, The Townsman takes a look at what fans can expect from the 2014 WHL season. We begin south of the border with the U.S. Division.
Portland Winterhawks Scot t Sepich
2013-14: 54-13-2-3, second in Western Conference, lost WHL final. Head coach: Jamie Kompon (first season). Key losses: LW Brendan Leipsic and LW Taylor Leier to AHL; D Derrick Pouliot and D Mathew Dumba could play in the NHL; D Garrett Haar, C Adam Ros-

Spokane Chiefs
Chris Derrick The Spokesman-Review
2013-14: 40-26-3-3, sixth in Western Conference, lost in first round. Head coach: Don Nachbaur (fifth season) Key losses: RW Mitch Holmberg (WHL scoring champion with 62 goals, 118 points), C Mike Aviani (38 goals, 81 points) and G Eric Williams (33-
Tri-City Americans Annie Fowler Tri-City Herald
2013-14: 29-33-4-6, eighth in Western Conference, lost in first round. Head coach: Mike Williamson (first season). Key losses: D Mitch Topping, last year’s captain; Phil Tot (15 goals) and Jessey Astles. 20-year-olds: D Justin Hamonic was named
signol and G Corbin Boes graduated. 20-year-olds: D Josha Smith joins D Josh Hanson and C Adam DeChamplain. Imports: Danish RW Oliver Bjorkstrand returns, along with Swedish D Anton Cederholm. Key returnees: C Nic Petan has 233 points over the last two seasons, and should play with Paul Bittner and Bjorkstrand. 2014 NHL draftees C Chase De Leo, RW Alex Schoenborn, C Keegan Iverson and C Dom-
inic Turgeon are back, along with D Keoni Texeira and D Layne Viveiros. G Brendan Burke will get another chance to be the No. 1. New: D Nick Heid and D Blake Heinrich have left the NCAA track for the WHL. Forwards Alex Overhardt, Skyler McKenzie and Colton Veloso could make an impact, along with backup G Adin Hill. Watch for: Can Portland make another deep playoff run without an elite defenseman?
Noteworthy: Portland is aiming to be the first team in WHL history to play in five consecutive league finals. Did you know? Portland could have as many as 13 U.S.-born players this year. Prognosis: Mike Johnston is gone, but Portland should be dominant offensively. The key is whether or not a defensive group lacking star power and goalie Burke can keep the puck out of the net.
all graduated. C Jujhar Khaira is off to pro. That’s four of the team’s top five scorers. 20-year-olds: D Ben Betker is a lock, while C Kohl Bauml appears safe. LW Zane Jones and LW Brayden Low will battle for the third spot. Imports: Swiss D Mirco Mueller is a question mark as it’s possible he will make the NHL’s San Jose Sharks. Russian C Ivan Nikolishin is the team’s leading returner.
Key returnees: G Austin Lotz begins his third season as team’s No. 1; D Kevin Davis and D Noah Juulsen are coming off impressive 16-year-old seasons; The Tips will be looking for increased offensive production from Nikolishin, LW Carson Stadnyk and whichever overage forwards stick. New: D Carter Cochrane joins full-time following an impressive season in the BCHL. RW
Graham Millar arrived in an off-season trade . Watch for: Tips to be challenged to score now that Winquist is gone. Noteworthy: Lotz shed 23 pounds this off-season to prepare for a heavy workload. Did you know? For the second straight season Everett has a guarantee out to season ticket holders. If the Tips don’t finish at least fourth in the Western Conference, season
19-2-2) all graduated; captain D Reid Gow (56 assists) and D Jeremy McIntosh chose not to return; LW Carter Proft signed in Germany; D Cole Wedman was traded to Moose Jaw; LW Adam Hascic returned to Slovakia. 20-year-olds: RW Connor Chartier (14 goals, 32 points); injury-plagued C Liam Stewart (seven goals, 28 points); C Marcus Messier (31 points), a late-season acquisition. Imports: LW Domi-
nic Zwerger (Austria, 26 points); D Tamas Laday (6-foot-7, 212 pounds) of Hungary was selected in CHL Import Draft. Key returnees: D Jason Fram (51 assists); LW Adam Helewka (23 goals, 50 points); RW Riley Whittingham (13 goals, 32 points); D Colton Bobyk. New: G Alex Moodie acquired from Saskatoon; C Kailer Yamamoto signed to join brother Keanu (25 points in rookie season). Watch for: The goal-
tending battle between Moodie and last year’s backup, Garret Hughson; emergence of young defensemen; favorable early schedule with nine of first 14 games at home. Noteworthy: Chiefs dashed to a 10-2 record last year and finished 14-4 against B.C. Division and 10-4-0-2 against Eastern Conference. Did you know? The Chiefs have lost 16 consecutive games to division rival Portland. Prognosis: Could be a long year for the Spo-
captain; F Lucas Nickles (four short-handed goals); F Jackson Playfair, acquired from Spokane; F Steven Hodges, acquired in off-season from Victoria, is at Florida Panthers camp and not likely to return. Imports: 17-year-old Russian forwards Vladislav Lukin and Semyon Krasheninnikov. Key returnees: G Eric Comrie finished second in WHL last year with a .925 save percentage. F Brian Williams led team with 36 goals and 56 points. Hamonic, one of the top stay-at-home
D-men in the west. New: F Maxwell James can score and punish. F Zach Andrusiak scored 36 goals and 52 assists with POE Prep. Watch for: Comrie and the defense to keep team in games until scoring comes around. Hamonic, Parker Wotherspoon, Brandon Carlo, Riley Hillis and Josh Thrower all return on the blue line. Noteworthy: The Americans look to have one of the top goaltending tandems in the WHL in Comrie and Evan Sarthou, who played for the
U.S. U-18 Select Team that finished third at the Ivan Hlinka Memorial Cup in August. Did you know? Eric Comrie broke Aaron Baker’s single-season franchise save record with 1,849. Baker had 1,825 saves in during the 1997-98 WHL season. Prognosis: New coach, new game plan, renewed energy throughout. Look for them to improve on last year’s eighth-place finish in the Western Conference and get past the first round for the first time since 2012.
D Adam Henry. Imports: C Alexander True (Denmark) and RW Florian Baltram (Austria) enter first seasons in the WHL. Key returnees: D Shea Theodore (22G 57A) led team and WHL defenseman in scoring. C Mathew Barzal (14G, 40A) is entering draft year and ranked in top 10 by most NHL draft experts. LW Ryan Gropp (18G, 24A) is also in his draft year and highly rated, should play on Barzal’s wing. D Ethan Bear (6G 13A) is another highly-rated prospect and should improve his offensive numbers. New: G Logan Flodell is a 17-year-old goalie the team is high on; D Sahvan Khaira is a 6-foot-3, 215-pound 16-year-old and younger brother of former Silver-
tip Jujhar Khaira; Kaden Elder is a speedy center; 2013 second-round bantam pick Nolan Volcan. Watch for: Can Seattle get secondary scoring outside of Barzal-Gropp line? Noteworthy: Seattle has improved each year under Konowalchuk, going from out of playoffs to seventh seed in 2012-2013 to fourth seed last season. Did you know? Mathew Barzal has a chance to be the highest drafted Thunderbird since D Thomas Hickey was selected fourth overall in 2007. Prognosis: Seattle will have an experienced defense but will be young and talented, up front. The Thunderbird should still compete for a top-four seed in the conference.
ticket holders get a $100 credit toward 2015-16. Prognosis: Everett took a leap forward last season, getting out of a rut of finishing eighth in
the conference for three straight years. The foundation exists as the Silvertips are experienced on defense and in goal. But will Everett be able to
score? Without offensive breakthroughs the Everett Silvertips will be hard-pressed to finish higher than last season.
kane Chiefs, who lost offensive power, leader-
ship on defense and a top goaltender.
New blood will have to rise.
Seattle Thunderbirds Andre w Eide 710 ESPN Seattle
Last season: 41-25-2-4, fourth in Western Conference, lost in second round. Head coach: Steve Konowalchuk (fourth season). Key losses: RW Branden Troock signed with Dallas, LW Alex Delnov (KHL), LW Roberts Lipsbergs signed in Europe, LW Jaimen Yakubowski traded to Moose Jaw, RW Connor Honey to injury. 20-year-olds: Seattle is over the limit with five over-agers: RW Justin Hickman, G Taran Kozun, RW Sam McKechnie, D Evan Wardley,

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Use the early morning to make calls and have meetings. As the day goes on, you might need some time to tackle a problem. You will benefit from having private time. You might strive to see the big picture, but it could be difficult at this point. Tonight: At home. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Handle a financial matter immediately, and you will be more relaxed. Act quickly and ask questions. Seek out the information you want. A wide range of opinions could be difficult to handle at times, yet they will prove beneficial to your longterm goals. Tonight: Dinner for two. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll breeze through the morning until you might trip over an obstacle involving your funds or a financial agreement. You might feel confused, as what you are seeing won’t be the same as what you are hearing. Tonight: Go over your budget
before making any plans. CANCER (June 21-July 22) By mid-morning, you’ll perk up and seem more interested in others. You’ll have the energy and right attitude to get past any problems. Others might step back and become less helpful because they assume you can handle it all. Is that what you want? Tonight: Pace yourself. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might choose to have a low-key day, yet someone could decide to invade your space. You will have no choice but to deal with the issue at hand. Responsiveness will help facilitate a sense of mutuality. Know what you want to deal with. Tonight: Do your vanishing act. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Look at the bottom line during a meeting. Others likely will feel differently than you do. You might decide to go out on your own. The question remains: What is best for you? You will discover that others will join you along the way. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile.
Tundra
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You’ll feel relaxed as long as you look at the big picture. A problem is likely to occur when you become too immersed in an issue. Frustration and anger easily could come to surface. Do not sit on these feelings; instead, express them in a way others can hear. Tonight: Out late. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You finally will achieve the level of understanding and relaxation you’ve been seeking. Your ability to see past the obvious defines a situation. Your detachment allows others to come to you in order to gain a deeper perspective. Remain open. Tonight: Follow your imagination. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your energy could greenlight a conversation that someone has been trying to have with you. Stop resisting, and be open to the process. The other party might be very sensitive, yet he or she will understand where you are coming from. Tonight: Dinner at a favorite place. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Others seem to rule the roost
today. Consider your options, and decide not to fight what the majority wants. Try to express your feelings in a way they can be heard. You might have a lot of questions to ask at this present moment. Tonight: Sort through invitations. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You could be taken aback by recent events. You might decide that you have had enough and head in a different direction. A friend is likely to push you hard to do what he or she wants to do. Honor who you are. Tonight: Run some errands on the way home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your imagination emerges once more to help you find your way. Your caring toward a loved one won’t go unnoticed. Be careful with those in charge, as they might have some kind of grievance with you. Tonight: Enjoy the one you are with. BORN TODAY Record producer Marc Anthony (1968), musician B.B.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My best friend’s husband is having an affair with his sister-in-law. I have firsthand knowledge of this and also heard it through several different, unrelated sources. They are pretty blatant about being seen together. My friend needs to get rid of this creep. I believe he’s a serial cheater who thinks he can get away with anything. Why else would a reasonably intelligent man risk losing everything, including his home and children, over this? I want to tell her, but dread hurting her. If she doesn’t believe me, it could end our friendship. But we live in a small town, and it’s only a matter of time before she finds out. Then she’d be angry because I kept the information from her. Keeping this to myself feels as if I am betraying her, and it’s getting harder and harder for me to be around her. This friendship is important to me. What do I do? Tell her or wait for the hammer to fall? -- Best Friend in Trouble Dear Friend: There is another possibility: that your friend already knows and has chosen not to deal with it. But in a small town, you are right that she will find out. You can express your concern without accusing her husband directly. Simply point out that he seems to be spending a lot of time with his sister-in-law, and if he were your husband, you’d check it out. Then leave it alone. Dear Annie: My friend asked me to be her maid of honor and then drove me nuts. She had crazy ideas and didn’t consider anyone else’s financial situation. It was all about her. She ordered dresses for us that were hideous and arrived with only a week to spare. The other bridesmaids and I convinced her to look for another dress, but although we shopped an entire day, she found nothing she liked. I found a dress on my own, but she didn’t approve of it. Finally, I sent her an email saying that I no longer had time to find an appropriate dress that was to her liking, and I would not be upset to be removed from the wedding party. I asked whether it was still OK to attend the rehearsal dinner and help out. My friend never responded, and then she made an announcement at the rehearsal dinner that she had chosen someone else as her maid of honor. She claimed I didn’t want to give a speech and that’s why I bowed out. I was hurt that she would announce this in front of everyone and then lie about the reason. She told me afterward that she still wanted me in the wedding party and another girl would get me the dress. So I ended up purchasing three dresses for her wedding that I could ill-afford. I left the wedding early because I was so hurt. She later sent me an email saying she did what she thought best. She never apologized. Is this a good friend? Did I do anything wrong? -- Disappointed Dear Disappointed: You expected to be dealing with a friend, but you got stuck with Bridezilla. This is not uncommon. Some brides become so selfishly focused on their own desires that they feel entitled to demand any sacrifice. The good news is, this phase usually passes in time. But if you believe this selfishness is simply your friend letting her true colors show, you are better off without her. Dear Annie: Thank you for running the letter from “Up Close and Personal,” who tried chlorophyll tablets for bad breath. I had a similar problem. No matter how many times I brushed my teeth and tongue, I still had a terrible taste in my mouth. Since that letter appeared, I have been taking two chlorophyll tablets every day, and I feel so much more confident. -- Fresh and Happy in Ohio Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Grande Prairie’s metalcore heroes Arrival of Autumn (pictured above) will live up to their band name when they erupt onstage at the legendary Byng Roadhouse in Cranbrook this Wednesday, Sept. 17, with local metalheads Anarcrist and Toronto’s crustpunks INDS as opening support.

Wednesday, September 17 • 7:00 - 8:00 p.m. at Centennial Hall, Kimberley Bring your children and come meet with the teachers.
The City of Cranbrook is currently hiring Arena Monitors with multiple positions available. Application deadline is 4:00pm MT, Friday September 19, 2014. To learn more about these positions and other employment opportunities available with the City, visit cranbrook.ca/job-postings.
Kimberley Teachers’ Association
BERLIN — Talk about a moving target. Scientists at the European Space Agency on Monday announced the spot where they will attempt the first landing on a comet hurtling through space at 55,000 kph (34,000 mph). The manoeuvr is one of the key moments in the decade-long mission to examine comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko and learn more about the origins and evolution of objects in the universe. “This is absolutely a unique mission,’’ said mission manager Fred Jansen, comparing the complexity of landing on the 4-kilometre (2.5mile) wide comet with that of landing a spacecraft on far larger objects like the moon or Mars. The unmanned Rosetta probe has been flying alongside 67P since August, sending back high-resolution images that allowed scientists to shortlist five possible landing sites. They chose one
— dubbed “J’’ for now — based on its relatively safe terrain and proximity to interesting features on the comet. But Stephan Ulamec, manager of the Philae lander project, said even with that site “the risk is high.’’ For one, scientists don’t know how hard the comet’s surface is or how active it will be on Nov. 11. Like all comets, 67P’s icy body has begun to fizz and spray matter as it nears the sun. Another problem is that the comet has just 1/100,000th the gravity of Earth, so the 100-kilogram (220-pound) lander will have to use harpoons and screws to avoid bouncing back into the void. Add to this the fact that the lander was designed 15 years ago, before ESA even knew which comet it would be aiming for. Still, despite the challenges, there will be no dress rehearsal. “Time has come to make it happen,’’ said Rosetta flight director Andrea Accomazzo.
