Work on the flume rehab to start this week C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
Since Kimberley City Council reversed their decision on the Mark Creek flume rehab in June, there has been work behind the scenes yet nothing visible to the public aside from equipment mustering on Deer Park Avenue. However, that will all change very soon says City CAO Scott Sommerville. He says the general contractor Copcan will begin pulling asphalt this week. “I understand that Copcan is waiting for their site supervisor with experience from Phase I to
finish up another project,” Sommerville said. The first project will be placing sewer mains, followed by excavation and the placement of the temporary diversion by BJ’s restaurant. No workers are actually allowed to be in the creek until July 15 under the Section 9 fisheries permit, Sommerville said. After initial tenders were rejected by Council on May 19 for being in excess of available project funding, Copcan approached the City and negotiated a reduced price for the work. On June 4, Council accepted a revised price of $2,882,560 from
Copcan, a $328,537 reduction from their original tender price, and decided to go ahead with the flume project this year. The City has also contracted AquaTex Scientific Consulting Ltd. $190,748.60 for engineering services related to the project. The planned expenditure for the remainder of the project is $3,374,050. In May of 2014, the City secured $2,068,582 in provincial and federal funding through the Flood Protection Program to complete the project, matching the City’s one-third contribution of $1,034,291.

Kimberley Medieval Festival this weekend
From Trichinipoly (wire weaving) to Na’al Binding (net making) C AROLYN GR ANT Bulletin Editor
Looking for something a little different this weekend? Why not step back in time to the medieval period? This weekend the inaugural Kimberley Medieval Festival kicks off with all kinds of Viking activities from knitting to battle re-enactments. The Festival is brought to you by the Kimberley City Bakery and the Calgary-based Sons of Fenrir. The Sons of Fenrir are re-enactors that por-
tray the Scandinavian peoples and culture from circa 800-950. Heralding from Calgary, Alberta, their aim is to, as accurately as possible, bring to life what it was like to fight and live in a roving Norse Warband. The festival runs on Saturday, July 11 and Sunday, July 12 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. It will take place in the Platzl and at Coronation Park. And best of all, it’s free. Festival organizer Michelle Forbes says that she thought the community could use an event that young families could enjoy. Not worrying about how much you have to pay for each child is a big plus. “It’s not real structured, it’s fun, it’s free,” she said.
The Sons of Fenrir will be in Kimberley this weekend to demonstrate Scandinavian life in the medieval period. Highly structured or not, there is a schedule and it begins with an opening parade on Saturday at 10 a.m. The parade is an informal one, if you’d like to dress up in Viking wear
and join in, please do. The parade will gather at the parking lot beside Centre 64 and march to the Platzl gazebo for the official opening. At 11 a.m. there will be a Viking skit at the gaze-
bo, followed by a battle re-enactment at 11:30 at Coronation Park. “After the battle re-enactment, kids can battle the Vikings themselves,” Forbes said.
PHOTO SUBMITTED
At 1 p.m. there will be a Live Action Viking Saga at the gazebo, then at 1:30 head to the Library for a demonstration of a Viking archeology dig. See FESTIVAL, page 4

Two College of the Rockies University Studies students have recently returned from a trip of a lifetime to London, England. The 17day journey, part of second-year sociology and English courses offered by Vancouver Island University, was made available to students from the College who applied to become visiting VIU students. Shaylee Rutledge and Alexis Vitaliano enrolled in the VIU course for future credit there or to transfer back to the College. They took part in the weekly VIU classes by Skype. “This field school was an amazing experience and I am so grateful I was given the opportunity to join the group from VIU,” says Rutledge. “Through this experience, the College enabled me to see the world and to further my education by taking two university-level courses. I was able to actually witness and become familiar with another cul-

Several nutrients – MSM, glucosamine sulfate, chondroitin sulfate – have taken the spotlight and the research on each looks promising indeed. Based on this explosive research, Natural Factors has formulated a superior remedy that includes all three nutrients for triple joint support. By combining all three nutrients, Natural Factors has gone one step further. Unlike over-the-counter painkillers, MSM, glucosamine sulfate and chondroitin sulfate, is not just a band-aid for aching, painful joints. These nutrients work synergistically to start the healing process while they address the pain. We suggest that everyone suffering from debilitating joint disease acquaint themselves with the research on these nutrients.

ture with a brilliant history, especially in literature. This type of interactive learning related well with the sociology and English courses I was enrolled in.” Vitaliano’s London field school with VIU was her second educational trip, having gone to Guatemala last year with Capilano University. She is extremely grateful for the opportunities to travel that the College has provided. “I grew up in Cranbrook. To be able to get these experiences here, to be able to travel to other countries and to encounter other cultures first-hand is remarkable,” she says. The students spent much of their time visiting notable London landmarks, some facili-
tated by the field school, some on their own. Their English course required them to read four London-based novels, one of which was titled Brick Lane. They then were able to visit many locations mentioned in the books to experience them first-hand, including enjoying a lunch on Brick Lane. From a sociological perspective, the students were able to witness how another society lives, including the high level of surveillance and security that is in place in London. They were also able to see for themselves how the construction of structures for the Olympics affected the neighbourhoods they were built in, especially in the poorer sections of London.

Though one might not think there is a large cultural difference between Canadians and Londoners, Vitaliano and Rutledge found otherwise. “London is a very multi-cultural city. You get on the tube and you hear five different languages, which is just amazing. I also noticed a difference in how people interact and go about their daily lives. We are definitely more low-key here and tend to treat each other more politely,” Vitaliano notes. Both Rutledge and Vitaliano are grateful for the field school experience and for their time at College of the Rockies. “The College is an amazing school. It is very homey and welcoming and the teachers go above and beyond for you. I would not have had the opportunity to go on either of these field schools if it wasn’t for my instructor, Avery Hulbert. It is because of Avery and the College that I was able to take part in travel that changed my life. I am so grateful for that. I am sad to be leaving the College now that my two years are done. I have built such great relationships with the instructors here,” Vitaliano concludes. Vitaliano will transfer credits earned during her two years at the College and enter the third year of the Social Work program at Vancouver Island University. Inspired to continue travelling by her two field school trips, she is already planning a trip on her own. Rutledge completed one year of University Studies courses at the College and returned from London to a very busy work schedule.

Community arts programs funds stolen from Centre 64 Funds for First Saturdays and Creative Kids summer program stolen For the Bulletin
Sometime between Sunday afternoon, July 5, and Monday morning, July 6, persons unknown broke into the Centre 64 arts centre and stole a quantity of cash temporarily stored in a locked office. The stolen money included the revenues from the First Saturday celebration on July 4 and registration fees for the Creative Kids summer arts program as well as money from late ticket payments for Symphony on the Mountain and an amount of petty cash. The break-in was discovered by the Centre 64 custodian on Monday morning when she arrived to carry out janitorial duties. Thieves had broken in through a metal fire exit door from
Studio 64 to the car park and targeted the administration office in which the cash boxes were stored, leading Kimberley arts council vice-president Carol Fergus, who was one of the first on the scene, to believe that the thieves knew what they were doing. RCMP Corporal Chris Newel brought in forensic personnel to re-
trieve evidence at the scene and Kimberley RCMP is continuing to investigate. The break-in and theft will reduce the funds available to Kimberley Arts Council for future community arts programs such as First Saturdays and Creative Kids but arts council president Mike Redfern stated
that all arts council programs and events will continue as planned though prob-
ably on reduced budgets. “This is not the first time a break-in has occurred at Centre
64,” said Redfern. “At our next board meeting the board of directors will consider what
measures we need to take to increase security so that we don’t risk such losses again.”

A GOOD PLACE TO BE. Water Usage - A friendly reminder that the City of Kimberley is recommending following the watering restrictions for this summer as Kimberley’s consumption is already up 40% and growing. Odd numbered houses should water on odd days from 6:00 am to 10:00 am, or from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm, even numbered houses should water at the same times on even days. What Can Kimberley Residents do to Conserve Water? – The Three Rs - Reduce, Repair, and Retrofit. Reduce by turning off the tap while brushing your teeth, washing and shaving, keeping shower time to 5 minutes or less, washing only full loads of laundry, and running the dishwasher only when it is full. Repair leaky fixtures and toilets. Retrofit shower heads, toilets, washing machines, dishwashers, and faucets with aerators. For more information please contact the City’s Water Smart Ambassador at waterconservation@ kimberley.ca or by calling 250-427-9660. Please watch for protective female deer (does) around the City - The Bylaw Enforcement Officer is responding by placing signboards in neighbourhoods to warn of deer in the area. Please respect their space, stay back 15 to 20 metres, and do not approach. They will often leave their fawn from time to time in search of food; please do not attempt to remove the fawn for fear of abandonment or feed them. To learn more about what to do if you encounter deer, please check out our web site here: http://kimberley.ca/community/ safety-health-environment/wildlife If you encounter an aggressive deer, or other types of wildlife, please report it to the Province’s Conservation Officer at 1-250-489-8540 or toll free at 1-877-952-7277.

Baynes Lake evacuation order rescinded Bulletin Staff
The BC Wildfire Service is being thanked for its efforts on the Baynes Lake area wildfire. The fire has been contained and an evacuation alert that has been in place since Sunday has been lifted. “This is a good day,” said RDEK Board Chair Rob Gay. “Things escalated very quickly on Saturday night when the fire broke out, and we are grateful for the tireless efforts of the crews, who have worked around the clock in trying conditions to bring the fire under control and protect our residents. I would also like to acknowledge the efforts of our Emergency Social Services team, our Emergency Program personnel, our Jaffray and Baynes Lake fire fighters and the many volunteers who have also been doing everything they can to help support area residents.” At the peak of the event in the early hours of Sunday morning, 200 people were evacuated from their homes in Kragmont and an area to the south. At the same time, the community of Baynes Lake and an area to the north were on Evacuation Alert. By Sunday afternoon, they were able to return home as the Evacuation Order was rescinded and an Evacuation Alert put in place. In total, 416 dwellings were on Alert in addition to a large number of recreationalists who have been camping in the area. Further to the north, an Evacuation Order for one home in Spillimacheen was rescinded Tuesday night and an Evacuation Alert put in place for that residence. The Evacuation Alert that was issued on Sunday for the area south of the RDEK’s border to Westside Road in Spillimacheen remains in place. On Wednesday, the Southeast Fire Centre estimated both fires were 80 per cent contained. With tinder-dry conditions and continued warm temperatures in the forecast, the RDEK urges everyone to use extreme caution. In an update from the provincial govern-
ment, Steve Thomson, Minister of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations, confirmed that 70 personnel were arriving from Ontario to assist with wildfire efforts. “Because wildfire activity is increasing throughout the province, our firefighting capacity is becoming challenged,” said Thomson. “We are very grateful for the help we are receiving from our partners in Ontario.” The group, which includes sustained-action firefighters and other specialized personnel, will be split between Cranbrook and Abbotsford, where they will be deployed as needed. Additionally, two amphibious skimming aircraft, one bird dog, and an air attack officer arrived in Kamloops on Tuesday. There are roughly 1,000 of B.C.’s 1,400 firefighters currently de-

economy has shrunk by a quarter, and unemployment has risen to 25 percent (50 percent for young people). The referendum question was deliberately obscure and misleading, but most Greeks know that the current approach simply isn’t working. That’s why they voted “no” in the referendum. It was a valid choice. If the eurozone authorities know that much of Greece’s debt can never be repaid (which they do), why don’t they just give Greece the debt relief it needs? Partly because Chancellor Angela Merkel knows that her own German voters will be angry at more “charity” funded by their taxes, whereas they stay fairly quiet so long as the debt is still on the books. And partly because other eurozone countries would see it as special treatment for Greece. Italy, Spain, Portugal and Ireland have also been through harrowing bail-out programmes, and are still making proportionally bigger interest payments on their debts than Greece. Some other countries using the euro – Estonia, Portugal, Slovakia and Slovenia – have about the same GDP per capita as Greece, and Latvia is even poorer. They don’t see why they should pay for Greece’s folly in running up such huge debts. So it really isn’t possible to predict whether Tsipras and Greece will be offered a better deal or not. It’s equally impossible to say what will happen to the euro “single currency” if there is no deal and Greece crashes out of the euro in the next couple of weeks, although the eurozone authorities insist that they could weather the storm. We do live in interesting times.

Letters to the Editor Thank you A recent storm blew many trees over the trails in Lois Creek but amazingly, within a couple of days, the trails were clear again, as if by some unusual magic! But it’s not magic, nor is it unusual. The consistently excellent condition of the trails in our Kimberley trail network is the result of many incredibly dedicated and tireless volunteers monitoring and maintaining the trails all year round. To them, the Friends of Lois Creek, the Kimberley Trails Society, the Kimberley Nature Park - I say a huge “Thank you!” – you are a big part of what makes Kimberley a great place to be! Let’s all continue to support them in any way we can. Ilona Hale

Jumbo June 18 was a momentous date for the people of the Kootenay and British Columbia – cancellation of the Environ-
mental Assessment Certificate (EAC) for Jumbo Glacier Resort must now mark the end of a decades-long struggle for the protection of one of this region’s most beloved wild places, the Jumbo Valley. The would-be developers failed to make a substantial start on their fabled resort despite a ten-year window of permission and the absurd creation and public financing of an entire municipal structure to enable them to proceed. On June 18, the Province of BC said “enough is enough”, and allowed the resort’s environmental approval to permanently expire. What has been left behind is a hot mess to be cleaned up one piece at a time. There are five major questions that the Province must respond to in order to hold true to the determination that Jumbo Resort approvals are truly expired: 1. When will the Master De-
velopment Agreement be formally cancelled? 2. When will the Province dissolve the Jumbo Glacier Mountain Resort Municipality? 3. When will the Province terminate the remnant land use tenures for Glacier Resorts Ltd.? 4. When will the Province follow through on their requirement that the developer must remove and remediate the illegal physical works at the former resort site? 5. What type of process would the developer have to go through if they were to attempt to proceed with a new, scaledback resort proposal? Minister Polack demonstrated great integrity in calling Glacier Resort’s bluff, but the Jumbo Valley will continue to be at risk until the Province firmly closes all remaining backdoors to resort development in the Jumbo and Farnham valleys.

Haase & Buckley returning to Dynamiters Veteran forwards set to return to Nitros for 2015-16 KIJHL season; main camp opens Sept. 4
Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
Forwards Keenan Haase and Eric Buckley are returning to the Kimberley Dynamiters and expectations are high for the 2015-16 KIJHL season. Dynamiters general manager Mike Reid confirmed Wednesday that the forwards were set to return to the club this coming season, after weighing options south of the border. “We’ve basically got our core group back and some new pieces coming in,” Reid said Wednesday. “We’re pretty excited. Keenan is a 6-foot-2, 200-pound centreman. Any team in any league is looking for that kind of guy, so we’re excited to have him back. We feel he’ll be one of the top-tier players in the league this year. “Obviously Eric will
bring a veteran presence. He plays a very agitating role and his speed is something that helps us. He’s a kid that’s been in the league, heading into his fourth season, so he’ll bring a lot of leadership to the room as well.” Haase and Buckley played a variety of roles through the 2014-15 campaign, moving fluidly within the Nitros contingent of top-nine forwards. Haase, a native of Mission Viejo, Calif., fielded opportunities to play American Junior ‘A’ hockey in the United States Hockey League (USHL) but opted to return to the relatively chilly mountain town that witnessed his game develop and mature over the course of last year’s breakout season in the KIJHL. The 6-foot-2, 195pound centre stacked up
26 goals and 43 points in 51 games during his first season north of the 49th parallel, coming on especially strong as the season wore on. After finishing sixth in team scoring, Reid said expectations are higher for the 19-yearold California native heading into 2015-16. “We expect him to be our No. 1 centre,” Reid said. “We expect him to be a big part of our power play and to dominate games physically with the size he has. He’s a kid that we hope to see in the top-five to 10 in scoring in the league this year. “He’s a bit of a slow starter. That’s one of his faults, but coach [Jerry] Bancks has done a great job of working with him and we’ll see a guy that can come out and dominate for 60 minutes on a consistent basis.”
As for Buckley, the diminutive forward had offers to play NCAA Div. III collegiate hockey, but decided playing out his junior eligibility might prove better for his longterm development. The 5-foot-9, 160pound winger from Penticton registered a career-high 43 points through 47 games last season. His role as agitator and irritator has been well established throughout the KIJHL and particularly within the Eddie Mountain Division. With Haase and Buckley back in the fold, the bulk of the Dynamiters’ core group will return with sights set on defending its 2015 KIJHL championship.

Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo returns
POINTS from PARLIAMENT
Ride set for Sept. 12; proceeds go towards North Star Rails to Trails Society and other community projects Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
The third annual Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo, sponsored by Taylor Adams Chartered Professional Accountants, is set to return to the East Kootenay in September 2015 and early-bird registration for the event is fast approaching. Early-bird registration closes Wednesday, July 15. Final registration for the cycling event is Sept. 4. Early-bird registration costs vary from $119 (plus GST) to $179 (plus GST), depending on which condo a participant choose to cycle in. “The support from the business community, both in Cranbrook and Kimberley, has been just outstanding,” said Glenn Dobie, chairperson for the Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo. “We at the Sunrise [Rotary] Club want to extend our real appreciation to all the businesses that have, financially, provided support to help make this event a reality. “It’s a non-profit [event]. All the money that is raised goes back into the community.” Registration costs rise to $129 to $199 (plus GST) following the early-bird deadline. Proceeds from the event go towards the

The early-bird registration deadline for the 2015 Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo arrives July 15. North Star Rails to Trails Society, for the purpose of trail maintenance and upgrades, as well as other Cranbrook Sunrise Rotary Club community projects. The current project receiving funding is restoration of the CP Rail train at the Cranbrook History Centre. That project is in the process of being completed. “The train is coming to a conclusion,” Dobie said. “Once that is done, we’ll identify another project. That’s on our agenda for the fall -where else can we turn
the money over to in future years?” The Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo is a fully traffic-controlled cycle scheduled for Saturday, Sept. 12, cruising through the scenic roads of the East Kootenay. There are three distances for cyclists to participate in. The piccolo fondo is the shortest of the rides, spanning 58 kilometres and rolling through 356 metres worth of elevation gain. The media fondo is a 102-km ride with a 933metre gain in elevation.
The gran fondo is the longest of the three rides, covering 152 km of East Kootenay terrain and climbing 2,698 metres. Though not a race, cyclists are timed. While riders in the third annual Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo must be at least 18 or older, the first annual Kootenay Kids Fondo opens a brand new avenue for young riders. On Sunday, Sept. 13, the first annual Kootenay Kids Fondo, for children ages six to 12, gets underway at St. Eugene Resort.
Participants are able to choose routes of eight km or 16.6 km. The cost for entry into the Kids Fondo is $19. For complete registration information and forms, visit the official website of the Kootenay Rockies Gran Fondo at www.krgf.ca. All early-bird registrants will be entered into a draw to win two nights’ accommodation at St. Eugene Golf Resort and Casino as well as two roundtrip tickets with Pacific Coastal Airlines.
Haase & Buckley boost Nitros’ title defence hopes Continued from page 8 KIJHL scoring champion and Nitros captain Jason Richter is back. Jordan Busch, Eddie Mountain Division defenceman of the year, is set to patrol the blue line once again. Justin Meier, the steam-rolling defenceman who joined the Nitros at last year’s trade deadline, will maintain his trolly tracks at the Kimberley Civic Centre
for one more season. The strong supporting cast remains in place. And some guy by the name of Tyson Brouwer will return between the pipes. Departed are offensive weapons Braden Saretsky and Coy Prevost, who have committed to the Canmore Eagles of the Alberta Junior ‘A’ Hockey League (AJHL).
On the back end, defenceman Tyler Kinnon is moving on to go to university, so his grit will need to be replaced as well. Goaltender Brody Nelson was shipped
north to the Revelstoke Grizzlies in exchange for future considerations. Fresh faces in the Dynamiters dressing room include local products and former affiliate players, defenceman Tyler Van Steinburg and James Rota. The high-scoring Austyn Moser was brought in from the Taber ‘AA’ Golden Suns midget program after tacking up 22 goals and
47 points in 30 games last season. In the goaltending department, Reid is still working on finding a capable backup for Brouwer. Dynamiters players are scheduled to return to Kimberley in time for conditioning and fitness on Aug. 30. From there, main camp begins Sept. 4 at the Kimberley Civic Centre and endures through Sept. 6.
McIlroy withdraws from PGA’s British Open due to ankle injury Doug Ferguson Associated Press
Rory McIlroy won’t be back to defend his title in the British Open. The world’s No. 1 player announced Wednesday that a ruptured ligament in his left
ankle will keep him from St. Andrews to play in the British Open. McIlroy said he injured his ankle while playing soccer with friends in Northern Ireland over the weekend. “After much consideration, I have decided
not to play in the Open Championship at St. Andrews,” McIlroy said. “I’m taking a long-term view of this injury and, although rehab is progressing well, I want to come back to tournament play when I feel 100 per cent healthy and
100 per cent competitive.” He will be the first player to not defend his Open title since Ben Hogan in 1954. McIlroy says his recovery is going well, but he wants to take a cautious approach. He says
he only wants to compete when he is fully healthy. It was not clear how much longer he would be out. He also is defending champion at the Bridgestone Invitational and PGA Championship over the next five weeks.

Judge: Redskins’ trademark must be cancelled, may be disparaging; team says it will appeal Mat the w Bar ak at Associated Press
ALEXANDRIA, Va. For the first time in a legal battle that has stretched over 20 years, a federal judge on Wednesday ordered the cancellation of the Washington Redskins’ trademark registration, ruling that the team name may be disparaging to Native Americans. The ruling does not bar the team from using the Redskins name if it wishes. The team could even still sue for trademark infringement, but winning such a case could prove more complex without the legal protections that come with a federally registered trademark. Redskins President Bruce Allen said the team will appeal. “We are convinced that we will win because the facts and the law are on the side of our franchise that has proudly used the name Redskins for more than 80 years,”
Allen said in a statement. The team’s lawyer, Robert Raskopf, said the team’s trademarks remain intact during the appeal process and that the Redskins “will continue to use their longstanding marks.” U.S. District Judge Gerald Bruce Lee’s ruling upholds an earlier finding by an administrative appeal board and orders the federal Patent and Trademark Office to cancel the registration. A group of Native American activists first challenged the trademark registration in 1992, and various administrative boards have ruled against the team before. But Wednesday’s order is the first time that a federal judge ruled against the team and found that the name may be disparaging. The team had sued in federal court in Alexandria seeking to overturn a ruling last year by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. It argued that the name honours
Native Americans and that cancelling the trademark infringes on its free-speech rights because it requires the government to judge whether the name is offensive. In rejecting the team’s free-speech argument, Lee’s 70-page ruling cited a U.S. Supreme Court decision last month allowing the state of Texas to bar depiction of the Confederate battle flag on specialty license plates sought by the Sons of Confederate Veterans. Just as Texas could not be forced to issue license plates depicting a flag considered offensive, Lee said, the Patent and Trademark Office cannot be forced to register a trademark that is deemed disparaging. Lee said the team’s free speech rights are unaffected because the team can still use the name. Joel Barkin, spokesman for the Change the Mascot campaign, also made a comparison to

LONDON - Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil simply played too much at Wimbledon. Pospisil lost to Andy Murray in three sets of their quarter-final match on a wet Wednesday, with the Canadian going out 6-4, 7-5, 6-4 after an exhausting 10 days of grass-court tennis. “I played a lot of tennis, how much that affected the match is hard to say,” said Pospisil. “But I definitely started feeling a little bit heavy, especially that third set. “I played, I don’t know, 31 sets in seven days or something like that.

the Confederate flag in reacting to the ruling. He noted how quickly the culture has shifted views in rejecting the Confederate flag and in accepting same-sex marriage, and said the team and the National Football League will find themselves on the wrong side of history if they continue to defend the name. Team owner “Dan Snyder and the NFL have to face the fact that we have a changing country,” Barkin said. “How long do they want to fight that?” Amanda Blackhorse, one of the Native Americans who filed the most recent challenge to the team’s name, said in a statement that she is pleased with the ruling. “I have asked this many times before and have never heard a sensible answer - if people wouldn’t dare call a Native American a ‘redskin’ because they know it is offensive, how can an NFL football team have
this name?” she said in a statement. Jeff Lopez, lawyer for the Native Americans who challenged the team’s name, said that Lee’s ruling was an across-the-board victory for his clients and that he is confident it will be upheld on appeal. Lee said the legal standard for cancelling the registration is whether the name “may disparage” a substantial composite of the Native American community. Though the team has maintained that the name honours Native Americans - citing evidence that Native American high schools have adopted Redskins as a team name - Lee said there is ample evidence that the name may be perceived as disparaging. He cited the fact that Native American leaders have been objecting to the name for decades, along with dictionary citations that the word is typically considered offensive.
Fatigue catches up with Pospisil as Canadian eliminated at Wimbeldon long rallies. Obviously I would have liked to have been more fresh, but it’s still been a great week, just the beginning.” Pospisil, stretched to five sets in three of his five singles matches, began feeling his legs against Murray. Pospisil and American partner Jack Sock were defeated last week as they defended their 2014 doubles title, only adding to Pospisil’s workload. The Centre Court contest against third seed Murray began with the roof open but after a second rain interruption, concluded after two hours 11 minutes with the translucent structure closed Pospisil had hoped to
join Robert Powell (1908 Wimbledon) and Milos Raonic (2014 Wimbledon) as the only Canadian men to make a Grand Slam final four. He was dismayed after being warned in mid-serve on a time violation, late in the seconds set as he dropped serve 5-6. A nagging injury also bothered Pospisil, who said he needs to get a scan on an undefined problem in his right hand which he has been feeling for a few days. But he immediately said he did not expect it to keep him from playing for Canada against Belgium in the Davis Cup next weekend. “I’m not expecting it to be anything serious,”
Detroit Red Wings sign Eric Tangradi Bill Bennett, M.L.A.
daily townsman / daily bulletin
DETROIT - The Detroit Red Wings have signed left wing Eric Tangradi to a one-year contract. The team announced the deal Wednesday.
The 26-year-old Tangradi played seven games last season for the Montreal Canadiens. He played a career-high 55 games for Winnipeg in 2013-14. Tangradi was drafted in the second round in
2007 by the Anaheim Ducks. He made his NHL debut in 2010 for Pittsburgh, and he was traded from the Penguins to the Jets in 2013. In 143 NHL games, Tangradi has five goals and 10 assists.
said Pospisil. “The plan right now is 100 per cent to go play, unless the get show something I’m not expecting it to show. It’s just a precautionary MRI, so I’ll see.” Pospisil ended with nine aces but only one break point chance, which Murray saved. Pospisil fired 34 winners in his losing effort. The 56th-ranked Pospisil suffered his fourth loss in less than a year to Murray as the pair met on grass for the first time. Pospisil and his seeded opponent had to put up with a 35-minute weather interruption with Murray leading 3-1 in the first set and again left the court with Pospisil up 4-3 in the second
set. At that point, the roof was closed to allow play to conclude. Murray profited from a break for 6-5 in a game where Pospisil was warned for taking more than 20 seconds between points. Murray took a 2-0 lead on sets a game later when Pospisil netted a service return. Murray earned the deciding third-set break in the ninth game as he easily returned a crosscourt winner off of a Pospisil shot from the back of the court. The 2013 Wimbledon champion served out the victory a game later to end Pospisil’s tournament on a second match point with a cross-court winner.

Man breaks into restaurant for taste of Tabasco sauce ASSOCIATED PRESS
He says the man may have mistaken it for a tiny bottle of liqueur, popular in Germany. Neighbors alerted police overnight after hearing the window smash. The man was arrested inside the restaurant. Berger says after telling police he had broken in because he was thirsty, he said all he wanted to do was sleep - and was given the opportunity in an overnight holding cell.
BERLIN - A man is in hot water after allegedly stealing a bicycle, pitching it through a Berlin restaurant window, then entering and quaffing half a bottle of Tabasco sauce - telling authorities he was thirsty. Police spokesman Jens Berger said Tuesday the 34-year-old was intoxicated, but it wasn’t clear why he went for the bottle of Tabasco to quench his thirst.
Russian science foundation disbands after being declared ‘foreign agent’ ASSOCIATED PRESS
MOSCOW - The foundation that was Russia’s largest source for private grants for science has decided to disband after being placed on the country’s list of “foreign agents.” The Dynasty foundation’s board made the decision on Monday, according to a statement on its website. The foundation has provided support for scientists, fellowships and visits to Russia by foreign scientists. Russian law requires non-governmental organiza-
tions that receive funding from abroad to register as “foreign agents,” a term carrying Cold War spying connotations. The Justice Ministry declared Dynasty a foreign agent because its Russian head funds it with money from foreign bank accounts. Dynasty was to allocate about $8 million in grants this year. The foreign agent label would have made it nearly impossible for it to support state-funded libraries, schools and colleges.

NEWS BC researchers follow path of post-Olympic measles outbreak Helen Branswell CANADIAN PRESS
TORONTO - You could call it CSI: Disease Detectives. Scientists in British Columbia have used the genetic signatures of viruses to trace the source and path of a measles outbreak that occurred after the 2010 Vancouver Olympics. The research brought into focus what is generally invisible: the path that the highly contagious virus took as it moved from person to person across wide expanses of British Columbia. The measles virus is so infectious you can catch it on a bus, in a public space, even by being in a room an infected person has already left. That often makes it impossible to know how individuals became infected. In this circumstance, the study - the largest of its kind involving measles - shows that after two different strains of measles were introduced into the Vancou-
ver area during the 2010 Winter Olympics, one strain headed north along a single highway. “Highway 97. All of the affected communities were located on that highway,” said Dr. Jennifer Gardy, lead author of the article, which is published in the Journal of Infectious Diseases. “All of those cases, even though they occurred in towns that were thousands of kilometres apart, they were all the result of one single introduction of virus into that region. They all had this one mutation that said: ‘Hey, these came from one person.’ Very interesting.” It was happy happenstance that Gardy - a molecular epidemiologist at the B.C. Centre for Disease Control - and her colleagues were able to do the research. It was assumed leading up to the Vancouver Games that H1N1, the flu virus that caused the 2009 influenza pandemic, would make an
appearance. An event like the Olympics - or this month’s Pan Am Games in Toronto - provides terrific opportunities for viruses and bacteria to move around the world, with athletes and spectators from various parts of the globe converging and then dispersing. Gardy and her colleagues were going to study flu viruses isolated from people who contracted influenza during the Games. But the flu was a no-show. There were, however, 82 people diagnosed with measles, in an outbreak that first came to light shortly after the Olympics ended. The genetic sequences of viruses from 27 of those cases showed two people had actually brought measles to Canada. The outbreak was caused by two different strains of the virus. By checking the sequences against those recorded in an international database of measles viruses, Gardy and her col-
leagues concluded one of the viruses was probably from China. The source of the second was less clear: viruses identical to it had been spotted in a number of places, including Italy, India and the United States. The technique she and her team used is called whole genome sequencing, comparing the genetic data for the entire virus to all the other available viruses in the outbreak. Since Gardy and her colleagues started this work, the science has evolved substantially, allowing for more rapid generation of the type of data that took this team several years to publish. She noted that whole genome sequencing has helped show how Ebola spread across borders in the ongoing West African outbreak. The advances mean this type of tracking can be used during an outbreak to help public health officials figure out how a disease is spreading.
Ten Easy Ways to Stay on Budget this Summer The lazy days of summer are here and with them come plenty of ways to spend. Here’s some easy tips to keep your budget on track through the sunny season! 1. Keep it on tap. Fill your own reusable bottles each day instead of buying bottled water. You’ll save money, and do good things for the planet. 2. Be a borrower. Get your summer reading material at the library or online. 3. Skip the brands. We go through a lot of sunscreen and similar products in summer. Shop for cheaper house brands: the quality is usually excellent. 4. Perfect the potluck. Make your own signature dish and get
guests to bring a favourite of their own, allowing them to share in the cost and effort of your backyard meal. 5. Pack a lunch. Make it part of the experience of a car trip or excursion. Find a picnic spot to enjoy your homemade goodies. 6. Shop the sales. Hold off updating your wardrobe until the summer styles go on sale. 7. Chill. Replace your AC filters. Set the temperature just one degree higher. Open the windows at night, and close the blinds during the day. On hot days, skip the hot stove. 8. Festival season. Lots of great events are completely free of charge. Look online for
something you’ll love. 9. Snap up those souvenirs. The best summer souvenirs are often the photos. Skip the souvenir shops; take more pictures instead. 10. Take a load off. Take advantage of historically low interest rates to refinance your mortgage and roll large amounts of credit card debt into your mortgage, if you have enough equity. This simple strategy can save thousands, give you one easy payment, and help you be mortgage free sooner. Then take that credit card, and put a post-it note on it that says “emergency use only”. Now kick back and really enjoy your summer!

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: My son is divorced and will be marrying again soon. His fiancee has never been married. I like her and am happy for both of them. Here is the problem: When he married the first time, my husband and I paid for all of the customary groom things -- the rehearsal dinner, the bar tab, the minister, and so on. For this wedding, we told him we would give him a specific amount of money and he can use it for whatever he wishes. We are getting some bad vibes about this. We were asked to make out a guest list, so we did. When I gave it to my son, he asked why it was so small. Annie, I don’t think I should expect everyone to come to a second wedding. I listed only close friends and family. Also, since we aren’t paying for the wedding, we don’t feel right inviting a bunch of people. Weddings should be about the words you say and the ceremony, and less about the party. We are happy he is getting married, but we don’t believe in big weddings. We will, of course, support whatever they do and attend with bells on. My husband and I have been married for 34 years and believe in for better or worse, richer or poorer, in sickness and health. What is your opinion? -- O. Dear O.: Please have an open discussion with your son and his bride. Explain that since this is a second wedding invitation for your family and friends, you don’t feel it is appropriate to have a large guest list. Also, because you are not financing the wedding, you don’t wish to obligate the couple or the bride’s parents with additional expenses. They need to know that your small guest list is for reasons of propriety, not because you aren’t happy about the wedding. Your son and his bride may ask you to increase the guest list anyway, and that is up to you. (We don’t advise upsetting the bridal couple.) There is so much stress surrounding weddings. By speaking honestly and directly with your son and his fiancee, it will help to limit mixed messages and hard feelings. Dear Annie: “Love Her” seems like a caring, loving husband, but I think he is still a bit clueless. He says, “I consider it a privilege to do things for her.” That indicates that he believes doing laundry, washing dishes, going grocery shopping and other chores are for HER, and that he is helping her out. Why is it so many men do not believe that these things are as much their responsibility as they are for the women they live with? Don’t they wear clothes, use dishes, eat food? When will couples realize that all the things required to run a household are the responsibility of both people in the household? Obviously, chores should be adjusted to reflect the time available and the skills necessary, and that should be discussed. Hopefully, an equitable resolution is reached without the inference that something is “her job,” but he’ll “help” because he loves her. -- Not a Feminist, a Partner Dear Partner: A lot of readers made this point, and it’s a good one. It takes time to adjust the old-fashioned attitude that household chores are “her” job, but society is getting there.

Obituaries Mary Lucinda â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mary Louâ&#x20AC;? Price (nee Shier) 1928 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 2015 Our mom, Mary Lou Price, passed away peacefully on the morning on Saturday, June 27, 2015 at the F. W. Green Memorial Home in Cranbrook at 87 years of age.
Mom was born near Colonsay, Saskatchewan on March 2, 1928 to Samuel Edgar and Sarah Lucinda Shier. She grew up on the family farm and finished grade 12 there. She attended Bible School in North Battleford, SK for two years and then continued on to Nursing School and became a Registered Nurse at Saskatoon City Hospital. She met â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;the handsomeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Nelson J.A. Price from Sonningdale, SK in 1950 (before all the schooling) and he waited for her to finish all of that before they married on March 12, 1955 in Saskatoon. They immediately moved out west to Marysville, BC (Kimberley) to start their new life together. Mom and Dad raised four children, Dale, Gwen, Arlene and Cory in Marysville. Dad worked with his brother in construction, then purchased Ryanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tire Supply in Kimberley and then eventually started their own business of Price Excavatingâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;Ś.all the while with mom doing the books! Mom also worked casual and eventually part-time as an RN at the Kimberley and District Hospital and the Kimberley Special Care Home â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Pinesâ&#x20AC;? while raising her family. She loved volunteering and was very social. She was involved with the school PTA while we were in grade school, belonged to the Marysville Sewing Circle, and volunteered her time with various community events. She was also a lifetime member of the Kimberley/ Marysville Hospital Auxiliary, serving many years in the capacity of secretary and then treasurer.

Mom was interred beside our dad (Nelson) in a private family gathering at Marysville Cemetery on Friday, July 3, 2015. A memorial gathering and celebration of her life will be held later this summer. Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at: www.mcphersonfh.com
Heidi Oostenbrink went to heaven on Saturday morning after many years of struggles. The struggles were only physical, however, for her mind and emotions were always steadfast on her pursuit of love. She saw all people as Christ sees them, as His creatures in need of salvation and love. She strove to show everyone that came into her life that they were worth something and that they were special. Countless people have expressed to me how they always felt this love when she was around. She would cook, clean, babysit, etc.; she was willing to sacrifice in any way to show care to those in need. In here latter years, however, because of her physical condition, she would pray. She prayed night and day sitting by her window looking out into the world. She prayed for her neighbours, she prayed for her friends, she even prayed for the bus drivers she loved so dearly, knowing everyone by name. But she mostly prayed for her children. She prayed for their safety every time they walked out the door. She prayed that they would find Jesus and remain with Him for their entire lives and that their children would do the same. She always prayed. She prayed for Christel and Kelley and their son James; she prayed for Anita and Jeremy and their children, Patrick, Eden, Elizabeth and Alexis; she prayed for Jonathan and Angela, and Jonathanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son Caleb. They will miss her so. Good bye Oma, we love you from now until eternity. A service to celebrate Heidi`s life will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church, Cranbrook, BC on Saturday, July 11, 2015 at 1 pm. Please join us to celebrate Heidi`s life and love. In lieu of flowers, the family would like ask that if you desire to make a contribution towards funeral expenses, that you contact Christel (250) 919-3728 or Anita (403) 297-1821.

A very big and important part of her life was her church family at the Cranbrook Christian Centre â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Dwelling Placeâ&#x20AC;?. She had a deep abiding, strong faith in God which resulted in her very positive outlook on life, in which she loved to share with everyone she met. She volunteered her time in the ministry of greeting cards dubbed as â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Card Ladyâ&#x20AC;?.
Mom, Mary Lou, has left to cherish her memory, her four children Dale (Marjorie), Gwen (David) Manarey, Arlene (Perry) Clarke and Cory; five grandchildren Anita (Scott) Falk, Julie Price, Karen (Curtis) Kaldestad, Emily and Robbie Clarke; three great grandchildren Mason, Hannah and Riley; her brother Herbert (Gudrun) Shier; sister-in-law Doreen Taylor; her brother-in-law Byron and his wife Hazel Price as well as many cousins, nieces and nephews who affectionately called her â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Louieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, Aunt Louie, aunt Mary Lou and great auntie!

In times of grief, these caring professionals are here to serve and comfort your family.
Irene lived life. From building a house in the forest from scratch when she was young, to rolling her walker out so she could work her garden in the sun a couple of weeks ago. Irene touched lives. She fostered 26 children over the years because of her love for children. She was the foster mom they never forgot. Irene loved the road. Summer trips to see those places she read about. Teaching her children that the only boundaries are the ones you build. Irene loved to create - crocheting and knitting in her chair for hours on end while watching the food channel. Irene was curious, independent, caring, resourceful, thoughtful, and a gadget freak. Now, she will be puttering in her garden in the morning, doing a road trip in the afternoon, hugging her grandkids at sundown and reading before she falls to sleep. A Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, July 12, 2015 at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch No. 24, 803 Cranbrook North from 11 am to 1 pm. A private service was held at Mark Memorial in Cranbrook, BC. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to remember Irene may do so with donations to the Heart & Stroke. Mark Memorial Funeral Services is in charge of arrangements, 250-426-4864

The cost of fuel dipped in 2014, but drivers are still looking for ways to spend less at the pump. For many drivers, that means driving less. Driving less will save money, and doing so also reduces fuel consumption and contributes to fewer emissions entering the air, both of which can benefit the environment. But many drivers are unable to drive less, as
commitments to work and family require them to get behind the wheel more often than they might prefer. Such drivers may be looking for ways to reduce their fuel costs, and fortunately there are several ways to do just that. • Reconsider your choice of fuel. Many of today’s auto manufacturers now design their vehicles so they can run smoothly on regular un-

NEWS AUTOMOTION savings, and those savings can add up to a significant amount of money over time. • Become a less aggressive driver. Drivers with hectic schedules tend to be more aggressive when behind the wheel. But driving aggressively is unsafe and potentially costly. When driven at speeds that exceed 55 miles per hour, vehicles lose fuel economy. According to the California Energy Commission’s Consumer Energy Center, driving
cient on low-octane fuel, meaning it’s unnecessary to choose premium gas, even if you only do so once in a blue moon. Read your vehicle’s owner’s manual to determine the best fuel for your car. • Buy when the time is right. Prices at filling stations fluctuate on a daily basis, so unless your car is running on empty, avoid filling up when the prices seem especially high. Some patience may pay off with several dollars in
leaded gas, which is typically listed as “87 octane” at filling stations. That’s important to know, as regular gas is often considerably less expensive than alternatives that are higher octanes. Many drivers may even choose regular unleaded, but opt for premium gas every third or fourth trip, feeling that the higher octane fuel every so often will increase performance of older engines. But many engines are designed to run smoothly and effi-
55 miles per hour instead of 75 miles per hour can reduce fuel costs by as much as 75 percent. • Remove unnecessary weight. A car trunk might seem like a great place to keep your golf clubs, and it may be tempting to leave that roof rack on top of your car after a recent camping trip, but such unnecessary cargo in or on your car makes it harder for the car to get from point A to point B. That forces the car to con-
sume more fuel. Unless your immediate plans include hitting the links or hunkering down at a nearby campsite, remove unnecessary weight from the car so your next trip to the gas station is less expensive. The cost of fuel can make trips to the filling station into costly excursions. But drivers willing to reconsider conventional wisdom and change their driving habits can save substantial amounts of money over time.
