The majority of the fires are in the Boundary region, but there were two new fires reported on Tuesday in the Cranbrook area. One is in the Ward Creek area, near Gilnockie Provincial Park, and was 50 hectares at the time of writing. That is south of Cranbrook. “I think it’s a little windy over there and

The current fire danger rating is “moderate” to “low” in the majority of the Columbia, Invermere and Cranbrook fire zones, but “high” in the Revelstoke, Boundary and Kaslo areas, and “moderate” throughout the Kootenay Lake, Arrow and Boundary zones.

B.C. Seniors Games Society seeks volunteers TRE VOR CR AWLEY
In 1993, Cranbrook hosted the B.C. Seniors Games. Now, more than 20 years later, Cranbrook and Kimberley have submitted a joint bid to host the Games in the very near future. When Cranbrook first hosted the event, 1,723 participants competed in 20 medal sports and two demonstration sports. The event has grown since then, with North Vancouver

hosting this year’s edition of the event at the end of August, which will feature upwards of 3,000 people aged 55 and up competing in 27 events ranging from intensely physical to the exactingly intellectual. Zone 7, which encompasses the East Kootenay region, routinely sends 35 -45 competitors each year to the Games, and local athletes have brought back 138 medals in gold, silver and bronze in events such as track and field,
bowling and cribbage, among others. The legacy of the B.C. Seniors Games has encouraged many local citizens to remain socially and physically active, contributing to the health and well-being of communities across the region. However, the Zone 7 executive is facing some challenges as a number of volunteers are retiring after decades of service. Over the years, there have been a dedicated cadre of vol-

Rumpus Chumpus Trumpus F or all those bemoaning the lack of noise in the Republican presidential sweepstakes, it’s time to get down on our knees and give thanks to Donald Trump because whatever that man touches turns to loud. He’s the gift that keeps on blaring. Has all the delicate innuendo of concrete curtain rods. Not just a loose cannon, more like a loose aircraft carrier. To say the campaign of the self-appointed captain of the S.S. Birther got off to a rocky start is like intimating that transatlantic telecommunications cables make substandard dental floss. Critics derided the guy who tried to trademark the phrase “you’re fired!” for hiring extras to pretend to be supporters at his announcement, but another way of looking at it is he’s already creating jobs. At the beginning of his diatribe where the word “I,” or “I’ve” or “I’m” was used 244 times (that doesn’t even include “me,” or “we” or “us”) the billionaire real estate developer trotted out some bizarre illegal immigrant harangue, accusing the Mexican government of sending drug- crazed rapists across the border. It’s the reason
veteran politicians often employ scriptwriters and utilize teleprompters: so they don’t stick their foot so deep into their mouths they can tickle their spleen with their shoelaces. And the price The Donald paid for his bout of verbal incontinence was shooting straight to the top of Republican polls. Sure, he and some of his brands were dropped by a couple of lily-livered corporations Will like Univision, Farouk SysDurst tems, NASCAR, Serta, the PGA, Televisa, NBC Universal & Macy’s. But not all is lost; rumors abound that both Animal Planet and SyFy are interested in producing a mini-series about his hair. Conservative conspiracy theorists accuse Trump of being a Democratic mole whose subversive goal is to make them look like intolerant cretins. But seeing how they’re the ones who spent the last 45 years crocheting the ass hat, they can’t be surprised when some idiot picks it off the shelf and waltzes around in it. Trump not only refused to apologize, he doubled down and stands behind his bigoted assault. “People stop me on the street and tell me I’m right.” Donny. Baby.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
You live in New York City. People there say crazy stuff all the time. “My clothes hamper has wings and is made out of aluminum.” “Alex Rodriguez is acting like a real human.” Trump is to presidential politics what hot dog eating is to the Olympics. He makes Sarah Palin look like a sober distinguished parliamentarian. And what if he does win the nomination? Who could he possibly pick as vice president to make him look presidential? Dick Cheney? Joe Biden? Urkel was a fictional character. Mr. Bean was born on foreign soil. Adam Sandler is dead. Well, his career is, anyway. You almost get the feeling that Trump isn’t as excited about becoming Commander-in-Chief as he is with forcing a black family with two young daughters out of their Washington D.C. home. But love him or hate him, you got to admit, it’s pretty exciting to finally be able to answer that plaintive query: “How long before America proves itself a world class power by fielding a presidential candidate with a cologne named after him?” That time, my friends, at last has come.

Roll On Columbia, is a travelling exhibition that explores the legacy of the Columbia River Treaty and present day understanding of the trans-boundary Columbia River watershed ecosystem. Developed and circulated by Touchstones Nelson: Museum of Art and History in Nelson, BC, Roll On Columbia won the Canadian Museums Association award of outstanding achievement in exhibitions for 2014. Roll On Columbia takes its name from the Woody Guthrie folk song of the same name, dating from the era of the Great Depression when mega projects such as dams were celebrated and embraced. Nearly a century later, there is wide spread understanding that mega projects transformed our relationship to water and the ecology of rivers, and not necessarily for the better. Yet, the rivers of southeastern B.C. continue to roll on through the mountains and across the international boundary into the United States, governed by a 50 year old international water agreement, the Columbia River Treaty (CRT). Set within the context the Treaty’s ten year notification period for rene-

gotiation (2014-2024), Roll On Columbia asks – do the public values that originally formed the treaty remain the same? The exhibit explores a number of areas of interest including key historic events preceding the CRT; the varied geography of the upper Columbia that attracted those in search of water storage; the key players who made the CRT decisions; the power struggle between B.C. and the Federal Government on the merits of the Treaty; how major decisions were made prior to public consultation; identification and measurement of gains and losses in the First Era of construction; and finally, trans-boundary river cooperation to the present day. Funding for Roll On Columbia was provided by the Columbia Basin Trust. The travelling history exhibit was researched and curated by Eileen Delehanty Pearkes an author and public speaker who specializes in the indigenous and natural history of the Kootenays. Eileen will be at the Cranbrook History Centre on Saturday, July 25th at 1:00pm for a public speaking engagement and to discuss the important topics that this exhibit brings up.
Pilot walks away unscathed from emergency landing at Radium mill Breanne Massey Columbia Valley Pioneer
A single engine Cessna made an emergency landing at Canfor mill yard in Radium Hot Springs due to a low fuel tank. The pilot walked away from the accident unscathed in spite of clipping the plane’s left wing on a tree during the 8:32 p.m. landing on Tuesday, July 14th. “He was running low on fuel and I think he would’ve had enough to make it to the Invermere airport, but I don’t think (the pilot) was aware of the airport in Invermere so he circled the mill a

Emergency personnel attend to a scene at the Canfor mill in Radium Hot Springs on Tuesday, July 14, night after a pilot flying a small Cessna was forced to make an emergency landing. couple of times looking for a suitable place to land,” said Columbia Valley RCMP Cpl. Grant Simpson. “When he felt that the road in behind the mill
was appropriate, he made the decision to land, and as he came in to land, a few of the trees growing along the dirt road were a little taller than he had
anticipated, so he clipped his wing and did some damage to his Cessna, but he walked away uninjured from it.” There were no other
passengers on board for the accident and no other damage reported from the surrounding area. The sight of a plane from Golden circling the area didn’t go unnoticed by Canfor staffers on shift at the mill that night. “An employee of the mill had watched this plane circle the mill about three times and then watched him make an emergency landing,” explained Cpl. Simpson, noting the name of the pilot or his business could not be released. “It was an unfortunate incident that was very preventable, as usual.”

Clarkson Cup Tour aims to raise profile of women’s hockey Canadian Olympians Meaghan Mikkelson and Natalie Spooner hope to see women’s game continue promising growth
Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
At the age of 23, Scarborough, Ont., native Natalie Spooner is one of the most accomplished female hockey players in Canadian history. On the international stage, she was a vital cog on Canada’s gold-medal winning outfit at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, scoring twice in a 3-1 semifinal victory over Switzerland. She’s laid claim to three silver medals and a gold medal over four years of competition at the IIHF World Women’s Championships. In 2008, she won a silver medal with Canada at the IIHF World Women’s U18 Championship. If winning Olympic gold wasn’t great enough, Spooner departed from the Winter Games to join the Toronto Furies of the Canadian Women’s Hockey League (CWHL), helping the squad to a Clarkson Cup championship. In doing so, she became the first player in hockey history to win an Olympic gold and Clarkson Cup title in the same year. “It’s pretty crazy -2014 was a pretty unreal year for me,” said Spooner, a 5-foot-9 forward, while visiting Cranbrook as a part of the Prairie Toyota Clarkson Cup Tour. “To be able to come back and join the Toronto Furies and win the Clarkson Cup, I think it was pretty unexpected for us. We were the underdogs, but to do it with that team
was pretty amazing. “It was a dream come true winning an Olympic gold medal. I think the next best thing that I could ever dream of is winning a Clarkson Cup.” The Prairie Toyota Clarkson Cup Tour arrived in Cranbrook Monday and setup shop in the Tamarack Mall parking lot, complete with Canada’s largest mobile synthetic ice surface, the Clarkson Cup, and two Olympic gold medallists -- Spooner and Meaghan Mikkelson.
The Clarkson Cup is awarded annually to the winner of the CWHL. It was named after former Governor General of Canada Adrienne Clarkson, just as the Stanley Cup was named after another former Governor General of Canada, Lord Stanley of Preston. The CWHL is a professional women’s hockey league dedicated to raising the profile of women’s hockey and providing a place for the world’s best female hockey players to train and compete. The Boston Blades (winner of the 2015 Clarkson Cup), Bramp-
Canadians earn Pan Am golds in pole vault & javelin CANADIAN PRESS
TORONTO - Canadians Shawnacy Barber and Elizabeth Gleadle took home gold medals in athletics competitions at the Pan American Games. Barber, of Toronto, cleared 5.80 metres en route to his first place finish in men’s pole vault. Argentina’s German
Chiaraviglio took silver at 5.75 and Jake Blankenship of the United States cleared 5.40 to finish third. Vancouver’s Gleadle won gold in the women’s javelin with a throw of 62.83 metres on her sixth and final attempt. American Kara Winger won silver with a 61.44-metre toss while Brazil’s Jucilene De Lima took bronze at 60.42.
ton Thunder, Calgary Inferno, Montreal Stars and Toronto Furies comprise the five-team CWHL. With the CWHL’s relatively small footprint in North America, Spooner is hopeful the Prairie Toyota Clarkson Cup Tour brings the women’s professional game into the minds of aspiring female hockey players in smaller markets around the country. “A lot of people don’t really know what the CWHL is at first,” said Spooner, who also enjoyed a successful and well-decorated college career with the NCAA’s Ohio State Buckeyes.
“Telling them that there is a place where the women play and [having] little girls come up and have them think, ‘I’m going to play in the CWHL when I’m older, not the NHL,’ like I used to think. There’s a league now for women to play [in].” Mikkelson, a member of the Calgary Inferno, might be touring with the Clarkson Cup and promoting the women’s game, but she wasn’t ready to touch the trophy out of superstition, having not yet won the top prize in women’s professional hockey. Even without a Clarkson Cup title to her name, the 30-year-old
Mikkelson has experienced her fair share of success over the course of her career, having won two Olympic gold medals (2010 and 2014), a IIHF World Women’s Championship (2012) and a 4 Nations Cup (2010). She’s also collected four silver medals at the IIHF Worlds (2008, 2009, 2011 and 2013) and, like Spooner, enjoyed a successful career in the NCAA with the Wisconsin Badgers. “Getting out and interacting with everyone in the different communities -- they’re places that we normally don’t get to travel to for hockey,” said Mikkelson, a 5-foot-9 defender and native of Regina. “A place like Cranbrook, a great hockey town, this tour gives us the opportunity to get out here and interact with all the kids and any fans that want to come out and say hi.” Though Mikkelson and Spooner have seen great success throughout their careers and watched the women’s game grow immensely, not only in Canada, but globally, they both acknowledge there is still plenty of room for the game to evolve. “Making a career out of [hockey] -- for girls, it’s not always easy to be training and playing on a team and to be working a job,” Mikkelson said. “That’s what the majority of the girls in this league do. They work jobs and they play in the league. That’s just the way it is for now. It’s the way our league is operating right now.

Canadian Olympic gold medallists Meaghan Mikkelson (far left) and Natalie Spooner (far right) visited Cranbrook on Monday as a part of the Prairie Toyota Clarkson Cup Tour to raise the profile of women’s hockey. Above, the Olympians pose with (L to R) Sawyer Reid-Pel, 8, and Michael Clark, 9, at the Tamarack Mall. “We’re all very confident that, one day, we’ll get paid. But for now, I think that’s probably the biggest hurdle.” And Spooner agrees. “A lot of people tune in for the Olympics and then kind of forget about us,” Spooner said. “If we get more fans in the seats it’s going to help more sponsors want to come on board and help our league out. The growth, in the end, will be able to make a career out of hockey for women. That’s the ulti-
NHL receives expansion applications from Quebec City and Las Vegas John Wawrow Associated Press
The NHL is one step closer to establishing expansion teams in Las Vegas and Quebec City. The NHL announced Tuesday it has received applications from prospective ownership in both markets, a day after submission deadline. The Las Vegas bid as submitted by billionaire
businessman Bill Foley, who has spent the past seven months exploring the level of interest for professional hockey in the community. Montreal-based Quebecor, a
Canadian media and telecommunications giant, submitted the bid for Quebec City. There are at least two more steps in expansion process, and bids require approval from the NHL Board of Governors. The NHL doesn’t anticipate adding teams before 2017-18. The proposed expansion fee is at least $500 million.
mate goal -- little girls wanting to grow up and be a hockey player.” The Prairie Toyota Clarkson Cup Tour will make 28 stops throughout the summer. After leaving Cranbrook and its only B.C. stop, the tour visited Lethbridge on July 21 before setting off for Medicine Hat (July 22) and Moose Jaw (July 23). The tour will hit a variety of other prairie towns in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Ontario before
wrapping up in mid to late August. When it comes to a close, Spooner will head back to the Toronto Furies for another run at the Clarkson Cup and she hopes to have inspired other young girls around Western Canada to dream of one day doing the same. “Dream big -- anything is possible if you work hard and set your mind to it. Have fun. I have fun every time I go on the ice and I think that’s the best part of it.”
Authorities end prosecution of Barry Bonds ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN FRANCISCO The U.S. Department of Justice formally dropped its criminal prosecution of Barry Bonds, MLB’s career homerun leader. A decade-long investigation and prosecution of Bonds for obstruction of justice ended quietly Tuesday when the DOJ said it would not challenge reversal of his felony conviction to U.S. Supreme Court.
A jury convicted Bonds in 2011 of obstruction of justice for giving a meandering answer to a federal grand jury when asked about injections. A federal appeals court overturned that conviction in April. The DOJ could have asked high court to take the case. But the DOJ has filed a notice with appeals court saying it wouldn’t challenge the lower court ruling.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might want to remain mellow, yet everyone else seems to keep popping up with surprises. A friend could become far more challenging and demanding than you had anticipated. Communicate what you want in an assertive but unemotional way. Tonight: Accept an invitation. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Keep an even pace right now. You might get news that could cause you to falter, but ultimately it will allow you to head into new territory. Your understanding of a difficult situation involving a close associate suddenly will become much clearer. Tonight: Get enough sleep. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll feel more playful and dynamic. You might want to try something new and totally different. Open up to different possibilities and remain easygoing. Be willing to renegotiate what you want if you’re not satisfied with someone else’s offer. Tonight: Time to have some fun.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) You come from a place of security and understanding. Someone close to you might decide to challenge you. Before you know it, you could be in a power play that you don’t want to be involved in. Pull back. Tonight: Let someone else worry about dinner plans. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might wake up on the wrong side of the bed, but you’ll regroup quickly. You seem to have a different perspective from that of others. Start asking questions. By the late afternoon, you could feel as if anything is possible. Tonight: Find out what everyone else is doing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could say what you want, and you might mean it; however, your ability to bypass a problem will emerge with a more diplomatic response. There is a midpoint where others will be satisfied. Understand the importance of finding some common ground. Tonight: As you wish. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your ability to get past a prob-
Tundra
lem is remarkable to many people, but to you it is second nature. Avoid a controlling individual at all costs. You might be full of energy right now and want to duke it out with this person. Walk away if need be. Tonight: Try something different. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might be more direct and open with someone than you have been. Understand that there is a change afoot. Know that you don’t need to say anything. A non-reaction will trigger this person even more, as he or she might be losing control. Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your effectiveness will be highlighted in a meeting. Others might challenge some of the details, but you’ll come out on top regardless. You are likely to have an offer come your way that could be the source of a new friendship. Tonight: Relax to some great music with friends. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might be surprised by what
goes on in the next few days. Try not to insist on having things go your way; instead, demonstrate a desire to be more open-minded. You’ll be surprised by how receptive others will become. Tonight: Could be a late night. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might wonder what is going on with a child or loved one. Detach some, and you probably will be able to gain a better understanding of the dynamics involved with this person’s life. As a result, you will be able to relate on a deeper level. Tonight: Where the action is. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Relate to others on an individual level. You’ll gain a lot of vital information that could affect various areas of your life. Be more open, and you will get a positive response. Your intuition serves you well at the moment; listen to it. Tonight: Have a discussion over dinner.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I am a divorced male in my mid-50s. A couple of years ago, I met a divorced woman through a mutual friend. We share a common hobby, which led to us spending hours of time together, often just the two of us. I asked my lady friend early on if she was interested in dating. She told me she had recently been through a bad breakup with her live-in boyfriend. She thought it would be nice to have someone with whom to go out for dinner, but she wasn’t interested in a sexual relationship with anyone. I accepted that. As time went on, however, we became closer. Although there was never anything physical between us, we had what I considered “dates,” where I would pick her up and we’d have dinner. I thought it was only a matter of time before our relationship became romantic and intimate. I recently learned that, for the entire time I have known her, my lady friend had been having a sexual affair with another guy who already has a livein girlfriend. When I confronted her, she neither admitted it nor denied it. Instead, she said her sex life was none of my business. I think I’ve been used for two years. I enjoyed our time together, but I never would have spent so much of it with this woman if I’d known she had a sexual partner. We are no longer seeing each other, and although that is probably for the best, it is awkward since we have mutual friends. What do you think? -- Feeling Used Dear Feeling: We think this woman definitely took advantage of you, but we also believe you went into this with different expectations. The woman needed someone to squire her around for dinner and such, and could not do so with her already-attached boyfriend. You were a convenience, and she misled you. You, however, assumed there would be an eventual sexual relationship with a woman who told you upfront that she wasn’t interested (the reason is irrelevant). If you had instead considered her to be simply a friend, with no other agenda, you could have enjoyed dinners out and hobby time without feeling used. It’s time to let it go. You made a mistake getting involved with her, but it shouldn’t shame you into avoiding your mutual friends. Hold your head up, be civil around her, and look for romantic companionship elsewhere. Dear Annie: I thought I was being respectful by addressing ladies using the title “Ma’am.” Recently, I said that to a woman and she responded, “My name is Mrs. X. I am not a ‘Ma’am!’” What do you think? -- Lafayette, La. Dear Lafayette: We think some people are too easily offended. We all have a preferred term of address, but we cannot expect others, especially strangers, to know what that is. One doesn’t chastise a person for being polite. For those of you who have been unintentionally insulted and feel the need to respond, simply correct the person in a gentle manner so they will know for next time.

Despite having an unusual skull, DNA suggests that ancient people like Brazilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Luziaâ&#x20AC;? were related to Native Americans. tage of some modern-day natives of Amazonian Brazil, researchers say. This second group, dubbed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Population Y,â&#x20AC;? had its roots in an Asian population that no longer exists, but which also left a genetic fingerprint in modern native peoples of Australia and New Guinea, said David
Reich of Harvard Medical School. He reported the work with colleagues in a paper released Tuesday by the journal Nature. Population Y provided only a fraction of the DNA now found in the Amazonian peoples. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not clear when they left the land bridge, in comparison to the previous-
ly recognized immigrants, Reich said. But they clearly arrived in Amazonia long ago and it should be considered a second founder group, he said. The paper provides the first robust evidence that some native populations of the Americas trace part of their ancestry to a second source, said Deborah Bolnick of the University of Texas at Austin, who was not involved in the work. It suggests that the history of the native populations â&#x20AC;&#x153;is more complicated than previously thought,â&#x20AC;? she said. A second study, released Tuesday by the journal Science, detected a similar signal in an Amazonian native group, as well as Aleutian Islanders. But the researchers concluded the DNA showed up relatively recently, after the initial peopling of the Americas.
Trumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s antics steal spotlight again Alexander Pane t ta Canadian Press
The cover cartoon on this weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s New Yorker offers an apt visual metaphor for the early phase of the 2016 U.S. presidential election: Donald Trump flamboyantly belly-flopping into a pool, clearing out everyone else. He did it again Tuesday. The real-estate magnate managed to soak up the attention on a day that, under normal circumstances, would have belonged to a more-experienced, less-ostentatious political rival. The popular governor of arguably the most important state in U.S. presidential politics, John Kasich of Ohio, had just announced his bid to seek the Republican nomination. But the former federal legislator, investment banker, and governor who won 86 of Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 88 counties in a landslide re-election bid risked immediately being drowned out by the lat-

Scientists have discovered a previously unknown source of ancestry for some native peoples in Brazil, suggesting a new wrinkle in the story of the settlement of the Americas. The finding does not change the broad outlines of what scientists believe: that the Americas were settled by people who crossed a now-submerged land bridge from Siberia to North America more than 15,000 years ago. Then they made their way south, and their DNA has been found in native peoples. This founder population drew its heritage from Siberia and people related to modern East Asians. Now, DNA from modern-day people indicates that another population also crossed the land bridge and contributed to the heri-

est Trump cannonball. This one involved Trump handing out the cellphone number of a United States senator and rival candidate, Lindsey Graham, to basically the entire world. Resentful at being referred to as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;jackassâ&#x20AC;? by Graham, Trump told a campaign rally that the South Carolina senator had begged him a few years ago to be introduced to friends at Fox News and had given Trump his number. Trump responded by applying two of the life-lessons laid out in the adulatory autobiographies heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s written with
titles like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Art of the Deal,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Think BIG and Kick Ass.â&#x20AC;? One involves doing outrageous things to get attention. The other is to always get revenge. He did both Tuesday. Dramatically pulling out a sheet of paper, Trump said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;And I found the card (with Grahamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s number).â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the right number,â&#x20AC;? Trump said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an old number... â&#x20AC;&#x153;Give it a shot,â&#x20AC;? he told the audience. And with that Trump read it out to the crowd, the cameras, and anyone who cared to tune
in. Graham was promptly inundated with calls, which mostly went straight to voicemail. A Republican hawk on foreign policy but considered a moderate on other issues, Graham had sparred with Trump over his remarks about illegal Mexican immigrants and was outraged over Trump poking fun at Sen. John McCainâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience as a prisoner of war. Polls show the publicity-grabbing billionaire atop the Republican field, although an extensive survey has yet to be conducted since the McCain incident.
