Cambodia Support Group;

a legacy of good work

C AROLYN GR [email protected]

The East Kootenay is lucky enough to be home to many organiza-tions dedicated to help-ing others. One of them, the Cambodia Support Group will celebrate 30 years in 2013. That’s 30 years of evolution from a primarily refugee-spon-sorship organization to an agency that operates in the country of Cam-bodia, helping Cambo-dians help themselves.

And it’s all happened without a plan, says Arne Sahlen, who has been with CSG since the beginning.

“It’s been an inspired stumbling along,” he said. “We began in 1983 by sponsoring refugees from Cambodia — what Friends of Burma is doing now. Now we pri-marily work within Cambodia. Both are equally needed in the world of relief and aid. We are very lucky to have two such powerful agencies based in the East Kootenay.

“I don’t think CSG could have been as suc-cessful if we’d tried to create a plan.”

There is no particular plan that will work be-cause you are dealing with traumatized peo-ple, Sahlen says. “Some had a very difficult time

adjusting, others just landed, got jobs and off they went. But as we stumbled along we re-settled 204 people in Canada. What happens is you sponsor one per-son and that person has a friend or a sweetheart.”

After resettling so many, CSG began to evolve again.

“We looked at CSG and said now we have all this experience, why don’t we do something to help the country? Cranbrook United Church was a key player. They gave us seed money to begin to help in-country. It primed the pump and away we went. Now CSG resourc-es are mainly focused in-country.”

But again, CSG doesn’t operate like other aid agencies.

“We just went over to find out what people were doing and how we could help them. Over time it evolved into a fantastic portfolio that addresses the overall quality of life. It wasn’t done by intent, but by discovery. We have a project training disabled people for employment, a women’s agency for gender awareness, aid to the poorest of the poor and there is always an arts element as well. I’m a musician myself, so I just asked what’s hap-pening here?”

What he found was Cambodian musicians wanted to revive their own traditional music. CSG set up a sponsor-ship program that has so

far provided 100 tradi-tional Cambodian in-struments.

“Our focus has al-ways been on the people and the projects take care of themselves. We want the Cambodian people to lead and change things on their own. It’s a respectful for-eign partnership, a col-lective, not donors and recipients. We’re all in this together.

“I always made a point to not be paid for anything I did. We were there because we want-ed to be. We’re like a family and we work through things together.”

One of the sponsored Cambodians who has become like family to Sahlen, is the young tenor Hy Chantavouth, who is currently at music school in Victoria.

“He has taken some enormous steps in his operatic development,” Sahlen said. “He’s gong to Cambodia in January on his own as a CSG rep-resentative and also to give concerts. And he will be connecting his music school to one in Cambodia via online learning.”

One thing that must be remembered in all the success, Sahlen says, is that it all happened because of past horrors. The need for aid is ongo-ing.

The Cambodia Sup-port Group will be host-ing a number of fund-raising events through-out their anniversary year.

Theatre goers of Cranbrook and area needn't worry anymore. There will be a theatre in the Key City for many years to come.

School District 5, the City of Cranbrook and the Key City The-atre signed a proclamation on December 20 at City Hall that puts just that in writing. When the new Mount Baker Neigh-bourhood Learning Centre is constructed, it will have a theatre space.

“The School Board, Key City Theatre Society and the City of Cranbrook are all in agreement,”

Mayor Wayne Stetski told the Townsman. “It's a very good partnership.”

The proclamation puts to rest rumours that have been swirling as the call for a new high school building has become even louder over the past few years. The Key City Theatre, attached to the school on the North side of the building and used hundreds of times a year by students in the district, would be difficult to maintain if the Mount Baker is torn down to make way for a new building. But now, all three in-volved parties have officially said they will make room for theatre

space in the new Neighbourhood Learning Centre.

“What this does it put all those rumours to rest,” Stetski said. “(It) makes sure that a new theatre will be part of a new school.”

Trustee Chris Johns, who is the chair of the School Replace-ment Committee, said in his re-search to lobby for the new high school, he noticed many Neigh-bourhood Learning Centres have had theatre space in them. Keep-ing the Key City Theatre intrinsi-cally linked to Mount Baker is a feather in the cap as they try to get a new building underway.

It’s a Christmas tradi-tion in Kimberley. Every Christmas Eve Santa takes some time out from his gift delivering duties to hang out with the Kimberley Fire De-partment.

He helps them deco-rate the truck and then rides along as it cruises Kimberley’s streets. He helps the firefighters sing carols and waves at kids who come out to watch the truck pass.

While there isn’t time to drive down every Kimberley street, Santa and the crew will try to hit most, beginning in Marysville at 5 p.m. Then it’s up to Kimber-ley.

Exact routes are indi-cated on the map at right. The truck may hit the ski hill area and For-est Crowne if there is enough time.

Due to time con-straints the truck won’t be stopping this year, but be sure to run out-side when you see it coming and give Santa and the Kimberley Fire Department a Merry Christmas.

Theatre will be part of new school

The Mark Creek Lions Club held its annual skating parties for students at the Lindsay Park and Marysville elementary schools last week. Mark Creek Lions Club hosted students from Kimberley’s elementary schools for skating par-ties last Thursday and Friday. Nearly 300 students skated and enjoyed more than 500 hot dogs and gallons of hot chocolate in between visits to Santa Claus, who dropped in from the North Pole just for these events. The Club thanks the teachers and the parents who attended for helping to make this annual event a great success! See everyone next year!

From page 4“The majority of them had some

sort of theatre attached to it,” Johns said. “We saw the establishment of a new Key City Theatre as an im-portant lynchpin in our efforts.”

The theatre is well used by stu-dents in the district, from the many Mount Baker theatre productions, to elementary school Christmas concerts to middle school band performances.

“It goes without saying, but I'll say it: it's a key part of all perform-ing arts activities in our school communities,” Johns said, adding that the theatre goes way beyond what happens in the schools. “We would be sadly missing an opportu-nity if we didn't have this theatre in our community. It's bigger than its attachment to Mount Baker.”

Stetski said the city has always been involved with the Key City Theatre. Currently they contribute $65,000 to the theatre's operating costs and are even proposing to raise that contribution to $70,000 for 2013.

“We're happy to do that because the theatre is such an important part of our community,” Stetski said.

The theatre is used by many dif-ferent community groups and cap-tures a wide array of audiences.

“The productions that they have brought in have been excellent,” Stetski said.

But the mayor says what he en-

joys the most about the theatres are the locally produced, homegrown productions from school concerts to elaborate plays.

“It's really an important part of what Cranbrook is,” he said. “I love the professionals that come in, but I also really love the local produc-tions.”

Trustee Trina Ayling previously sat on the Key City Theatre's board of directors. She will be stepping down and Johns will take her posi-tion as the School Board's represen-tative.

Stetski said the new high school is something all Cranbrook resi-dents are looking forward to – when it finally happens.

“The replacement of the high school is one of the priorities we all have for Cranbrook,” the mayor said. “It's not a matter of if, but when.”

Johns said the work continues behind the scenes to get funding approved for the new Neighbour-hood Learning Centre. They contin-ue to be in contact with MLA Bill Bennett and the province and hope to someday have a big, exciting an-nouncement to make.

“We're going to have a new Mount Baker opening in September – we're just not sure what year that will be.”

Cpl. Chris Ne welFor the Bulletin

I know it’s hard to believe for some, but it’s been a year since my arrival in Kimberley. I can say I’m pretty much settled in and feel comfortable in the new community. As many know I worked in Cranbrook for a num-ber of years but left in 1999. Yes, it’s been that long. So moving to the East Kootenays was not new, I am familiar with the area and know a lot of people. My first exposure to Kimberley was a trip through the area in 1989. I skied and enjoyed a Café Mocha at the

Snowdrift Café. I knew I would be back, little did I know when or why. But happy to be back all the same.

For those that know me, writ-ing for the paper, speaking on the news and letting people know what’s going on, is something I have been practicing for over 20 years. I firmly believe the police do an amazing job, but when you don’t know they headed out in the middle of the night to a seri-ous crash in a blizzard, how can you be thankful. Police work is filled with stuff we can’t tell you, but it’s important we let you know what’s happening in your

community. Every week I select a few inci-

dents to talk about, sometimes they are serious, other times funny and sometimes just good advice. I hope you have enjoyed them and learned a little more about what the Kimberley RCMP are all about.

On behalf of all of us, we would like to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas. We hope you enjoy and safe and fun holiday. And yes, there will be a police officer working Christmas day. Let’s hope he or she is not needed.

Happy holidays from Kimberley RCMP

PAGE 6 MONDAY, DECEMBER 24, 2012

NDP leader Adrian Dix has completed year-end interviews with members of the legislative press gallery. Here are high-lights from my discussion with him.

TF: On the Kinder Morgan oil pipeline expansion proposal, federal NDP leader Tom Mulcair says the federal environmen-tal process would have to be strengthened before a project like that could get a thor-ough enough hearing. Do you agree?

AD: The B.C. Liberal gov-ernment has signed an equivalency agreement that says that the federal deci-sion is the provincial deci-sion on these projects. If it applies to Enbridge North-ern Gateway, presumably the B.C. Liberals would apply it to Kinder Morgan.

They could have done a joint process, where [the final decision] would have gone to both cabinets. They chose instead to give up jurisdiction. They were so afraid of making any decision on Northern Gate-way that they sent it over to the federal government.

So what we’ve said is within a week of coming to office, we would end that equiv-alency agreement, and British Columbia would make decisions about both En-bridge Northern Gateway, which applied in May 2010, and any other pipeline, in-cluding the Kinder Morgan proposal, for which no application has been made.

Obviously it would have been desirable

for everyone had they chosen a true joint review, as they have in Site C [dam pro-posed for Peace River], as they did with Kemess North [rejected mine expansion proposal] and other cases.

TF: You don’t want duplicated review processes here, you just want a provincial cabinet say in the decision?

AD: That’s right. TF: On your relationship with the B.C.

Federation of Labour, your caucus is considering a pro-posal that B.C. should once again do away with secret ballots for union certifica-tion.

AD: The B.C. Fed makes a case to the government on a series of issues on employ-ment standards every year.

Labour law, every year. WorkSafeBC, every year. Trades and training, every year.

With respect to [accepting signed union cards for certification], it is a demo-cratic process that the Newfoundland Conservative government just put into place a few months ago. So it’s a proposal from the labour movement and we’re looking at it.

For most of B.C.’s modern history, since World War II, we’ve had that card-check system in place. The question would be whether [returning to that system] is a priority for this term in government.

TF: So those kinds of things will be made clear in your platform?

AD: Absolutely.TF: You picked up some serious money

from the business community at a fund-raiser in October. Is that some kind of a re-cord for the NDP?

AD: [Laughs.] It might be a record, I don’t know. I think the business fundrais-er we did at the Hotel Vancouver netted $350,000.

I think what it reflects is, this year I’ve had about 230 meetings with the business community. The purpose of it has been principally to build understanding, partic-ularly on issues of skills training. With the priority I give to skills training, I think I’m much more attuned to their concerns than the government has been.

TF: I suppose that kind of success in fundraising might make it more difficult to follow through with your pledge to ban corporate and union donations.

AD: I don’t think so. The B.C. Liberal Party has a very high level of corporate donations as a percentage of its total. We’re overwhelmingly dependent on in-dividual donations. We get support from unions, but it’s not even close to what people would think.

TF: So you’ll campaign for that, as you have before?

AD: Yes.

OpiniOn/EvEnts

To begin on a happy note, the world didn’t end this year. December 21st came and went without a sign of the

Four Horsemen, leaving the Mayans (or rather their ancestors) with egg all over their faces. It just goes to show the perils of pre-diction — but why would we let that deter us? Nobody is keeping score.

So, instead of the usual trek through the events of the past year, why don’t we use this year-ender to examine the entrails of recent events for portents of the future? Like, for example, the vicissitudes of the Arab revolutions in the past 12 months.

On one hand, there were the first truly free elections in modern Egyptian history. On the other hand, judges inherited from the old regime dismissed the lower house of parliament on a flimsy pretext, and then the Islamist president retaliated by ramming through a new constitution that entrenched conservative “Islamic” values against the will of more than a third of the population. Is this glass half full or half empty?

On one hand, Libyans managed to hold a free election even though the country is still overrun by various militias, and Yemen finally bid farewell to its dic-tator of 30-odd years. On the other hand, Syria has fallen into a full-scale civil war, with government planes bombing city centres and 40,000 dead. Did the “Arab spring” succeed, or did it fail?

Well, both, of course. How could it have been otherwise, in a world of fallible human beings? But the mould has been broken, and already half of the world’s Arabs live in countries that are basically democratic.

The political game is being played pretty roughly in some Arab countries, but that’s quite normal in new democracies —and in some older ones, too. In the years to come the transformation will deepen, amidst much further turbulence, and most Arab countries will emerge from it as normal, highly imperfect democracies. Just like most of the world’s other countries.

The European Union staggered through a year during which the common currency of the majority of its members, the euro, tottered permanently on the brink of col-lapse. The financial markets have been talking all year about “Grexit”, the expected, almost inevitable withdrawal of Greece from the eurozone, and speculating on which country would leave next.

Meanwhile, secessionist movements flourished in major EU states. In Spain, both Catalonia and the Basque region elected provincial governments committed to holding referendums on independence. The United Kingdom and the recently de-volved Scottish government agreed on the terms of a referendum to be held on Scot-tish independence in 2014. And in Belgium, Flemish threats to secede seemed more plausible than usual.

It’s a mess, in other words, and Europe certainly faces years of very low economic growth. But the EU was always mainly a political project, intended to end centuries of devastating wars in Europe, and the euro was invented to reinforce that union.

That project still has the firm support of the political elites in almost all EU coun-tries, and they will pay whatever price is necessary to save it. Even in the regions considering secession from their current countries, there is no appetite for leaving the EU. Indeed, the strongest argument of the anti-secessionists is to say that those regions would have to re-apply for EU membership if they got their independence, rather than just inheriting it automatically.

So the European Union will survive, and will even recover its financial stability even-tually. It will also remain a major economic player in the world, athough the centre of gravity of the global economy will continue to shift towards Asia. There is even reason to think that Asia’s triumph will arrive some-what later, and in a rather more muted fashion, than the enthusiasts have been predicting in recent years.

In the last months of 2012 China went through the ten-yearly ritual in which power is handed on to a new generation of leaders, and both Japan and South Korea elected new right-wing governments. North Korea, the nuclear-armed rogue state that lies between them, put its first satellite into orbit, thus demonstrating its ability to build long-range ballistic missiles. And China was almost continuously embroiled in bor-der disputes with its neighbours (Vietnam, the Philippines, Malaysia) in the South China Sea.

The cloud on the horizon is still “no big-ger than a man’s hand,” but it is definitely there. We can hope that the world works differently nowadays, but the fears, the nationalist passions, and even the stra-tegic relationships in Asia are coming to resemble those in Europe a century

ago, on the eve of the First World War.Even if an equivalent war never actually

happens in Asia, a growing share of the re-gion’s resources may be wasted on military spending. And if there ever were a real war, the destruction would be so great, given current weapons technologies, that the re-gion could lose decades’ worth of growth. But it will be some years before we know if the region is really drifting in that direction.

The world’s drift towards global catastro-phe due to climate change is becoming im-possible to deny. This northern summer saw prolonged droughts and heat waves ravage crops from the U.S. Midwest to the plains of Russia, and soaring food prices as the markets responded to shortages in food supply.

This September saw Arctic sea ice cover fall to its lowest ever level: only half of the total area covered by ice in September 10 years ago. And October saw Hurricane Sandy devastate much of the U.S. east coast, causing a hundred deaths and over $30 bil-lion in damage. It was the second-costliest tropical storm in American history (after Katrina, in New Orleans, seven years ago).

Yet the global response is as feeble as ever. The annual round of global negotia-tions on cutting greenhouse gas emissions, held this December in Qatar, merely agreed that they would try to get some sort of deal by 2015. Even if they do, however, it won’t go into effect until 2020.

November brought a week of massive Israeli air and missile strikes against the Gaza Strip, allegedly in retaliation for Pales-tinian missile attacks against Israel, but the tit-for-tat has been going on for so long that it’s pointless to discuss who started it. And nothing Israel does can stop the growing support for a Palestinian state: in late No-vember the United Nations General Assem-bly granted Palestine non-voting observer state status by a vote of 138-9.

More worrisome was the threat of Israeli air strikes on Iran, supposedly to stop it from getting nuclear weapons. That would be a very big war if it started: the United States would almost inevitably get dragged in, the flow of oil from the Gulf states would stop, and the world economy would do a nosedive.

But there is no proof that Iran is current-

ly working on nuclear weapons (the U.S. and Israeli intelligence services both say no), and mere air strikes would not cripple Iran’s nuclear industry for long. So the whole issue is probably an Israeli bluff.

A bluff to what end? To get the rest of the world to impose severe economic sanctions against Iran, in the hope that they will cause enough pain to get Iranians to overthrow the present regime. The damage is certainly being done, but the power of the ayatollahs is unshaken. They will not be overthrown, and there will not be a war. I think.

And then there’s the United States, where Barack Obama, having accom-plished little except health care reform in his first presidential term, was re-elected anyway. The Republican candidate con-centrated his campaign on Obama’s slow progress in overcoming the deepest reces-sion in 70 years (which had been caused by the previous Republican administration), but just in time the numbers started to turn upward for Obama.

The economic recovery will probably strengthen in the coming year (unless the U.S. falls off the “fiscal cliff” in the next week or so), and growth will give Obama enough political capital to undertake on at least one big reform project. The highest priority is obviously global warming, but there is a danger that he will fritter his resources away on hot-button issues like gun control.

So much for the big themes of the year. There was also the usual scatter of promis-ing changes like Burma’s gradual return to democracy, the start of peace talks that may bring an end to the 60-year-old war be-tween government and guerillas in Colom-bia, and the return to the rule of law in growing areas of anarchic Somalia.

Venezuela’s President Hugo Chavez is probably dying of cancer, and the rules for choosing his successor are in dispute. Rus-sia’s President Vladimir Putin faced un-precedented public protests after the elec-tions last March, but his power still seems secure. The Mars rover landed successfully in August, and is now busily trundling across the Martian landscape. The exist-ence of the Higgs boson was confirmed (or at least tentatively confirmed).

Business as usual, in other words. 2012 wasn’t a particularly bad year; if you think it was, you’ve been reading too many news-papers and watching too much CNN. Their stock-in-trade is crisis and tragedy, so you can always count on them to give you the worst news possible. It wasn’t all that great a year either, but never mind. There’ll be an-other one along shortly.

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

It was not the way the Nitros wanted to finish heading into the Christmas break, as the Fernie Ghostriders played the role of the Grinch by sweeping a home and home series over the weekend.

The Golden Rockets had flown above the Dynamiters and the Ghostriders in the standings, but Fernie’s two wins have put them in a tie for first in the Eddie Mountain Divi-sion.

The Nitros have slipped to third place, six points behind both teams.

Both weekend con-

tests were tight, as Fri-day’s 4-3 decision was decided in the final two minutes of the third pe-riod, while Saturday’s affair was a 3-2 over-time win.

Dylan Rota scored the game winner on Friday in Fernie to give the ‘Riders the win, and also potted the over-time marker the follow-ing night.

The two teams trad-ed goals in the first pe-riod on Friday as Josh McKissock score for the ‘Riders, but Tanner Gray responded for the Nitros to even things up.

Both were held scoreless in the middle frame, but the ‘Riders

posted a trio of goals in the final period, while Kimberley only an-swered with a pair.

The Nitros initially pulled ahead, scoring twice from Taylor Mc-Dowell and Eric Buck-ley, but Fernie roared back with three unan-swered markers from McKissock, Matt Carr and Rota.

Both teams were held scoreless on the

man-advantage; Fernie had four opportunities, while Kimberley had seven.

Jeremy Mousseau turned away 40 shots while manning the crease for the Nitros, with Chris Solecki stop-ping 29 shots for Fernie.

The ‘Riders came down to the Civic Cen-tre in Kimberley the fol-lowing night for a re-match and stole a 3-2 overtime decision.

For the second con-secutive game, Fernie took the lead off a goal from McKissock in the first period, but Taylor McDowell evened it up in the following frame.

Kimberley pulled ahead in the final peri-

od off a goal from An-drew Miller, but Patrick Webb responded for Fernie with four min-utes remaining in the game.

Rota scored late in the overtime frame with 1:40 to go.

Fernie had one power play goal in seven opportunities, while Kimberley capi-talized once in nine chances.

Solecki made 37 saves for Fernie, while Matthew Mitchell stopped 35 shots for Kimberley.

The Nitros will be back at it on Dec. 29 in another home and home series with the Ghostriders.

Fernie earns two late wins against Kimberley to close out schedule before Christmas break

C ANADIAN PRESS

HELSINKI, Finland —The world junior hockey championship hasn’t even started yet, but Canada is already facing mounting adver-sity.

Jonathan Huberdeau and Ryan Nugent-Hop-kins scored in the shootout Saturday as Canada defeated Swe-den 2-1 in the team’s final warmup game.

The story afterwards, however, was the status of Canadian centre Boone Jenner, who was assessed a five-minute major and a game mis-conduct for charging after a late hit on Jesper Pettersson in the second period.

The Swedish de-fenceman lay on the ice in pain and had to be carried off on a stretch-er.

Canadian coach Steve Spott said he didn’t know if Jenner would face further disci-plinary action from the International Ice Hock-ey Federation.

“It’s out of our con-trol. Ultimately, our feel-ing is (the hit) was shoulder-to-shoulder,’’ Spott said. “If anything, maybe interference or a charge but definitely not something that’s worth suspending because al-though Boone is an ag-gressive player, he didn’t target anybody’s head and he didn’t leave his feet.’’

If Jenner, who plays for the Oshawa Generals and is a draft pick of the Columbus Blue Jackets, is suspended for a sig-nificant length of time, Canada would have the option to bring over a player to replace him.

NHL, players’ union make no progress over the weekend

IR A PODELLAssociated Press

NEW YORK—All is quiet between the NHL and the players’ associa-tion, and there is no sign the sides will talk even by phone before Christmas.

“Nothing today,’’ NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told The Associ-ated Press in an email Sunday night. “Don’t know whether we will speak before the holi-day.’’

Daly and players’ as-sociation special counsel

Steve Fehr spoke to each other Saturday, but nothing of note came out of those discussions. The union declined to com-ment Sunday, the 99th day of the NHL lockout.

The sides haven’t met face to face since Dec. 13.

All games through Jan. 14 have already been called off, and if a new collective bargain-ing agreement isn’t reached by then, the re-mainder of the schedule could be cancelled, too.

Colts, Bengals latest teams to make playoffsC ANADIAN PRESSOne year after put-

ting together the NFL’s worst record, the India-napolis Colts are head-ed to the playoffs.

Joining them on Sunday were the Cin-cinnati Bengals.

The Colts (10-5) equaled the 2008 Miami Dolphins as the only teams to win at least 10 games after los-ing 14 or more the pre-vious season. Top over-all draft pick Andrew Luck completed a 7-yard touchdown pass to Reggie Wayne late in the fourth quarter for a 20-13 victory at Kansas City.

Cincinnati qualified for a second straight post-season berth for only the second time in franchise history, edg-ing archrival Pittsburgh 13-10. The Bengals have never gone to the

playoffs in successive years that did not in-volve a strike-short-ened season.

Luck finished with 205 yards passing to break Cam Newton’s year-old rookie record of 4,051 yards in a sea-son. He also extended his rookie record for fourth-quarter come-backs to seven by lead-ing his team downfield in the closing minutes.

“Mission accom-plished. That’s all I can say,’’ Colts interim coach Bruce Arians said. “Without getting emotional again, know-ing that (coach Chuck Pagano) is going to be back Monday, the work week shouldn’t be as stressful.’’

For the Bengals (9-6), Andy Dalton hit A.J. Green with a 21-yard pass in the final mo-ments, setting up Josh

Brown’s 43-yard field goal with 4 seconds re-maining. The loss elim-inated the Steelers from contention.

Minnesota’s 23-6 win at Houston pre-vented the Texans from earning home-field ad-vantage throughout the AFC playoffs. AFC South champion Hous-ton (12-3) still can get that by winning at Indi-anapolis in the season finale.

Washington’s 27-20 win at Philadelphia, combined with New Orleans beating Dallas 34-31 in overtime means the Redskins will win the NFC East by beat the Cowboys next week.

Green Bay clinched at least the third seed in the NFC when it routed Tennessee 55-7. The NFC North champs (11-4) still could wind

up second overall in the conference and get a bye.

On Saturday night, NFC South winner At-

lanta won 31-18 at De-troit to clinch home-field advantage throughout the confer-ence playoffs.

Swisher, Indians agree to $56 million, 4-year contractTOM WITHERSAssociated Press

CLEVELAND — The Indians’ pitch to bring Nick Swisher “home’’ worked.

Two people familiar with the negotiations said Swisher has agreed to a $56 million, four-year contract with the Indians, who used the

free agent outfielder’s deep Ohio connections to convince him to join the club. The people spoke on condition of anonymity Sunday be-cause Swisher must take a physical before the deal can be final-ized. The Indians are expected to announce Swisher’s signing after

Christmas, one of the people said.

The Indians will not comment until Swisher completes his physical.

“Wow! What a crazy few weeks,’’ Swisher said on Twitter. “Hey Cleveland! Are you ready? Because I’m coming home!’’

Swisher’s deal in-

cludes a $14 million option for 2017 that could become guaran-teed based on plate ap-pearances the previous year.

Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis was excited about the club’s newest addition.

“Welcome to the Tribe (at)nickswisher,

pumped to get ya,’’ Kip-nis tweeted.

The 32-year-old Swisher spent the last four seasons with the New York Yankees, tak-ing advantage of the short right-field porch at Yankee Stadium. A switch-hitter, Swisher hit .272 this season with 24 homers and 93 RBIs.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might be too concerned with making sure that you have dotted your “i’s” and crossed your “t’s.” Stop for a moment, and try to remember the true nature of this holiday. Consider all of the special people around you. Tonight: A midnight reviv-al. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You beam this Christmas Eve. You will be surrounded by loved ones who are full of caring, and the joy of this togetherness feels like a Christmas gift. A call from someone at a distance brings this person closer into your thoughts. Tonight: Follow family traditions. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might feel as if you are at the end of a diving board, about to jump. Understand that anxiety is normal, especially during an important holiday like Christmas. Take a nap or do something specifically for your-self. Tonight: Just wait to the

wee hours; you will feel great! CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are moving full steam ahead, trying to do as much as you possibly can. Stop and look around. Enjoy the friends and loved ones who surround you. If you need help with a last-min-ute detail, just ask. Others will be only too happy to pitch in! Tonight: Where the fun is. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Others seem to have a difficult time right now. They could be distracted or completely pan-icked at the thought of what they have left to do. Remind them of the true meaning of Christmas. Your warm, generous style will help everyone relax. Tonight: Enjoy every moment. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll be touched by someone’s caring gesture, and this person will be quite pleased with your reaction. Call a friend or loved one at a distance, and discuss plans to get together in the near future. Tonight: Make it OK to daydream a little. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Let a key person get closer to

you. You have one life to live -- live it well! A family member could be upset and not un-derstand the cause. Help this person move through his or her feelings, if possible. Tonight: Make midnight calls to loved ones at a distance. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Defer to others, as they want control. As a result, you will have less to do. Enjoy being a little lazy and relaxed, as you don’t have to be the leader for once. Deal with a difficult per-son rather than avoid him or her. Tonight: Go with the flow, but do drop by the mistletoe. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Finish up last-minute details. Get your errands done. Once you pull everything together, you will be able to relax with a friend or a loved one. You won’t be able to predict what the next 24 hours will bring. Tonight: Come midnight, you’ll touch base with loved ones. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You could be pushing someone very hard. Know that you will not be able to convince this

person of the rightness of your ways. Give it up, and you might be surprised by what happens in the next few weeks. Tonight: Celebrate, but make it a point to get to bed early. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Your instincts tell you to stay close to home. Between incom-ing calls and people dropping by, you might end up hosting an impromptu party. If any sign can get into the moment, it is you. A child dominates the scene ... to no one’s surprise. To-night: The fun begins in the wee hours. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Make calls, finish errands and drop off a gift or two at a loved one’s place. You might be pushed by a group of friends who want you to join them at the last minute. Remember, there might not be a repeat of this cast of characters in the fu-ture. Tonight: Don’t make it too late! BORN TODAY Singer Ricky Martin (1971), au-thor Mary Higgins Clark (1927), actress Ava Gardner (1922)

Dear Annie: On behalf of the approxi-mately 40 million deaf and hearing im-paired in the United States and Canada, especially those who wear hearing aids, would you pass this message to the TV sta-tions? I love watching TV: sitcoms, news, dra-mas, reality shows, all of it. Being hearing impaired, I rely on closed captioning so I don’t miss the story and commercials. But if the station doesn’t provide closed cap-tioning, I will change channels to find a program that does. In the newsroom, if the producers insist on playing music while the news anchor or onsite reporter is speaking, I can’t hear the story and will change channels. (Speaking of news anchors, enunciation would be appreciated. Actually, that goes for every-one on TV.) And you advertisers? I recommend you view your commercials on mute and see how they come across. I’m still laughing at the credit card commercial that some-how ties dogs and chocolate bars together. It looks suspiciously like dog droppings. I have no idea what you’re selling. Hearing aids are wonderful, but they pick up every piece of noise, and background music becomes as loud as the dialogue. It’s impossible to hear what is going on. As our population ages, there will be more hear-ing impaired persons. And young people aren’t far behind in experiencing hearing loss. So, TV stations and advertisers, if you want your message to get across to another 40 million customers and fans, please en-sure that your audio programming can be clearly heard. Thanks. -- Frustrated View-er in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada Dear Canada: We cannot tell you how many readers (even those without hear-ing problems) have complained that they can’t hear dialogue over the background music, and that actors and news anchors don’t articulate sufficiently to be under-stood. If programmers and advertisers realize that viewers change the channel when listening becomes difficult, perhaps they will pay more attention. Dear Annie: “Looking for a Relationship, Too” wants to know where the men are. I’ll tell you where we are. We are in hiding. We left the dating pool because there are too many sharks. We are tired of sorting out the gold diggers, scheming manipulators, entitlement princesses, Toxic Thelmas and serial divorcees from the good women who are fewer and farther between. It is now a dangerous occupation to be a husband and father, so we no longer want long-term intimate relationships with women. -- A Good Man Gone Celibate Dear Celibate: You sound like some-one who’s had a bitter experience, and it soured you on all relationships. And while you probably speak for many men, we also wonder whether you are subconsciously attracted to women who come with trou-ble attached. It is often easier to blame the other party than examine your own issues too closely. Dear Annie: This is for all the young peo-ple looking to go overseas and the parents who would prefer they didn’t. Our daughter was obsessed with every-thing Japanese: the people, culture, land, language, food. We knew she would find her way there, with or without our help, so we chose to indulge her obsession. We paid for three trips to Japan, Japanese lan-guage classes and a master’s degree that allowed her to get a job there. She now lives and works in Japan, but we have never seen her happier. Her be-ing so far away gives a whole new meaning to “empty nest syndrome” for us, but it is worth it. -- Bittersweet in S.C. Dear Bittersweet: Your daughter has been blessed with understanding parents who could afford to help her reach her dreams. You are all fortunate indeed.
