Trial deer-hazing in Marysville goes wellDeer moved in Marysville on

Wednesday

C ArOLYN gr [email protected]

While most people in Marysville were still in bed, or enjoying their morning coffee, two border collies — Bob and Tess — were mov-ing deer. There was no fuss, no muss, no stam-pede — just a group of deer moving out of town under the guid-ance of two very well trained dogs.

Kimberley’s one-time only trial with aversive conditioning of urban deer took place on Wednesday morn-ing, May 29, 2013.

It was kept purpose-ly low-key, with only a few deer committee members, the provin-cial government biolo-gist Irene Teske, and Coun. Darryl Oakley along to watch as John Zehnder and Margie Ja-mieson let their dogs do their thing.

“It went well,” Zehnder said. “We did a group of deer at Bootleg Gap and then up to-wards the transfer sta-tion. I think the people watching learned a lot and got a good under-standing of how it works.”

This was a trial only, allowed under special

permission from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Re-sources.

The deer removed today will return to town. A full aversive conditioning program will require repetition of today’s events until the deer understand they will not be both-ered out of town.

“We condition the deer to know that town is not a good place to be,” Jamieson said. “Out of town is the safe zone and the pressure is off.”

“The deer see the town as a shelter from predators and as a food source,” Zehnder. “They feel comfortable here.”

“In a sense what you do with the dogs is in-troduce a predator to their safety zone,” Ja-mieson said.

Both stress that this is a non-traumatic way to move deer.

“The deer move from the dogs, but they are allowed the free-dom to move in the

right direction,” Jamie-son said.

“We are taking ad-vantage of a natural in-stinct,” Zehnder said.

“These deer saw the dogs, their ears went up and they were ready to

move.”The dogs are off

leash, but Zehnder says they are on a ‘verbal leash’.

“They have total re-call. You can call them off at any point. They

will stop on a dime.”“We can direct their

movement right or left,” Jamieson said. “What was evident today was not control over the deer but control over the direction they go. It

works like a funnel with the dogs working the flanks, keeping the deer directed. For the deer, the right direction is the easiest option.”

“We want them to feel as if they are being

hunted,” Zehnder said. “That’s why the dogs are off lease. We can put as much pressure on them as required by the situation.”

From Page 1Both Zehnder and

Jamieson have previ-ous experience with hazing, or aversive conditioning. They have worked in na-tional park areas such as Banff and Water-ton. They acknowl-edge that what is being done in Kim-berley is the first of its kind.

“It’s never been done outside of a na-tional park before,” Jamieson said.

“It’s never been done in a municipali-ty,” Zehnder said. “This is a first. It’s a pretty significant trial.”

However, both say aversive condition-ing, no matter how successful, will only work in certain parts of town, and must be part of a multi-pronged approach to problems with urban deer.

“We’ve seen it work, but it’s one prong,” Jamieson said. “There is also

education, fencing, non-feeding.”

“And there is cull-ing,” Zehnder said. “I like to promote a more selective cull.”

Jamieson agrees. “Instead of a massive cull, you target the problem deer. If you kill 100 deer and don’t get the four ag-gressive ones, you haven’t solved your problem.”

Both say that for a trial run, Marsyville is an ideal set up with crown land on the edges rather than acreages and farms.

“We really do want to acknowledge Gary Glinz and Sherry Shrieves from the Deer Committee and Darryl Oakley. They really worked hard for this. They didn’t just get permission for a trial, they are looking to change legislation.”

“It’s very progres-sive thinking,” Zehnder said.

The Kimberley Primary Health Care Center in conjunction with the Heart Failure program was able to obtain a HOLTER MONITOR through funds donated by the family of the late Mr. Mike Amantea. A holter monitor allows clients to wear a small device that will continuously record and detect all heart rhythms over a 24 hr period. This assists physicians with the diagnosis and treatment of arrhythmias that can cause dizziness, black outs, irregular beating of the heart and also evaluate the effectiveness of heart medications they are presently on. It is a welcome addition to the presently offered services provided to the residents of Kimberley. Above, Catherine Blake, RN with the heart failure program and Maria Amantea, wife of Mike).

A rupture in a waste-water pipe in the worst possible location has forced the City of Cran-brook to pull $1 million out of a reserve fund.

“This is a one mil-lion dollar surprise,” said Mayor Wayne Stetski.

The burst pipe is lo-cated out at the city’s spray irrigation fields in Mayook – 20 feet be-neath the newly reno-vated pumphouse building.

The 24-inch pipe carries wastewater from one of the two la-goons at the spray fields to the pumphouse, from which it is dis-persed through pivots to irrigate the 2,200-acre property.

Unfortunately, a worst-case scenario came about this spring when city staff learnt

that the 40-year-old pipe was leaking, and had been for some time.

“It started off as probably just a pin hole leak and we don’t know how long it has been leaking, but we know it’s probably been leak-ing at least five years if not more,” Chief Ad-ministrative Officer Wayne Staudt told city council on Monday, May 27.

Even worse than the tricky location of the burst pipe is that years of leaking wastewater created a sink hole un-derneath the pump-house building, which contains hundreds of thousands of dollars in technology.

“This leakage then washed away and took the ground under the building, which was primarily gravel, and all that gravel is now

moved out,” said Staudt.What’s more, the city

discovered the problem at the worst possible time of year – early spring, when the la-goons are at their peak height.

“We were right at the beginning of the sea-son, when the ponds out there are at their maximum levels, and we’ve got to move that wastewater out onto the pivots and the spray ir-rigation. So it’s not something we could delay. We needed to move quickly so that we don’t exceed our lim-its,” said Staudt.

To repair the 15 feet of burst pipe and stabi-lize the building, work that is now almost com-plete, staff had to use directional drilling to get at the problem 20 feet below ground.

They may not have the legs for it, but the men of Cranbrook don’t care: on Saturday, June 15, you will see a bunch of them walking through downtown in shiny red high heels.

It’s the second annual Walk a Mile in Her Shoes fundraiser for Cranbrook Women’s Resource Cen-tre, where local men don high heels and take part in the Sam Steele Days parade to raise aware-ness of women’s issues.

“It’s an international walk of men who walk in

A cluster of red-heeled men passes in the 2012 Sam Steele Parade’s Walk A Mile fundraiser.

Walk a mile in her shoes

high-heeled shoes to stand up against rape, sexual assault and gen-der violence. It happens all over, in different countries and different towns,” said Karen Chastain, a member of the Friends of the Wom-en’s Resource Centre.

Last year’s event raised $5,000 to help

keep the centre open, after it lost some provin-cial funding in 2011.

“The Friends of the Women’s Centre was formed to raise money to keep the doors open,” said Chastain.

Twenty-five men donned their red shoes last year to walk the length of the Sam Steele

Days parade route.“Some of them had

some blisters, but most of them took to it quite well and were able to do the walk. They weren’t sure they were going to be able to, but they did,” said Chastain.

This year, Chastain said they expect to have even more men take

apart, including some teams. Core Fitness is putting together a team, she said, and Kenny Bridge of Bridge Interi-ors has started a cam-paign ahead of his par-ticipation in the walk.

All men are invited to take part in Walk a Mile in Her Shoes. They are being asked to register as early as possible so that the correct size of heels can be ordered for them.

There will be a spe-cial session of shoe fit-tings and pledge collec-tion on Thursday, June 13, two days before the walk, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Cranbrook Family Connections building beside the skate park.

On parade day, walk-ers will come together at 9:30 a.m. at the same building from which the parade begins. The group will walk in the parade in their red shoes.

Cranbrook Council voted to move a mo-tion forward that asks the province to amend wildlife management regulations to reflect urban wildlife popula-tions.

Coun. Bob Wheth-am put forward the draft motion, which says that current regu-lations don’t address human-wildlife con-flicts in urban areas and lacks the flexibility needed to develop new approaches.

The motion asks that the province au-thorize a person to use alternative wildlife management tech-niques if the regional manager considers it necessary for the proper management of the wildlife.

“This is an outcome of one of the meetings we had with the deer committee,” Coun.

Whetham explained. “It was pointed out by a wildlife biologist that all the regulations we have in place right now were really de-signed to address the issue of addressing deer populations spe-cifically in the rural areas.”

Whetham said there is no framework for managing deer in the urban areas.

He said the city should ask the prov-ince to amend those regulations in order to be able to look at ex-perimental manage-ment techniques.

“As long as we’re contained within that framework we really don’t have options,” he said. “We need to be able to change those regulations in order for those wildlife man-agers to be able to give us permits for some-thing like this.”

this issue came up re-cently when the City of Kimberley was denied a 48-hour permit to conduct experimental hazing on its urban deer population.

“If we’re going to have options for the fu-ture, we need some changes as well to the regulations,” Stetski said.

Coun. Sharon Cross said there is potential to get some support from other communities to send the motion to the Union of B.C. Munici-palities.

Cranbrook plans BC Senior Games bid for 2015 or 2016

Games bring economic

benefit to host communitiesArne Petryshen

Townsman Staff

The city is consider-ing putting in a bid to host the 2015 or 2016 B.C. Senior Games. Council’s push will go ahead if it hears a posi-tive endorsement from the business commu-nity.

The games require a $60,000 contribution from the city, as well as $55,000 in in-kind sup-port, to help in the costs of hosting the games.

City staff recom-mended moving ahead with the application as long as there is support from the accommoda-tion and tourism sec-tor. Staff hopes for the sector can help with the development of the bid package.

Mayor Wayne Stets-ki said the investment sounds like a good op-portunity for the city.

“Most recently, the benefits have been around $2 million to the communities that

have hosted them,” Stetski said.

Coun. Gerry Warner said the whole thing revolves around the active involvement of the tourism sector and so council should hold off on any decisions until it hears back from tourism.

“Nobody can pre-dict the future,” Warner said. “Do we know we will get this active in-volvement? Things are stretched pretty tight right now.”

Kevin Weaver, the city’s economic devel-opment officer said that staff is looking for some sort of formal sign off that they will support the push for the games. He said there were some con-cerns around the 2008 Winter Games that the tourism sector had not been engaged prior to a bid, so staff is making sure to address those concerns.

Coun. Diana Scott said that there is no danger of moving ahead with the appli-cation.

“I think it’s early stages yet,” Scott said. “It’s just do we want to do it or do we not want

to do it.”Scott said she thinks

the investment is worth it. She alluded to the success of the Can-ada Cup of Curling and the B.C. Winter Games hosted by Cranbrook and Kimberley.

She said the city has the volunteers and wouldn’t need as many as in the winter games.

Coun. Angus Davis said he supports the move wholly and reit-erated the point about these games being eas-ier to manage.

CAO Wayne Staudt said that currently the city doesn’t have the $60,000 in its five-year plan, so the council of the day in 2015 or 2016 will have to decide to add it to its five-year plan..

Davis said he knows quite a few people who participate in the se-nior games.

“People really, real-ly look forward to com-ing to these games,” Davis said. “It’s now a rough deal. It’s a good deal and I just hope that we can do it.”

Warner said he agreed with making the bid as long as council is not making

its final decision at that time.

Council voted to move the application forward contingent on the support and in-volvement of the ac-commodation and tourism sector.

From Page 3“The high cost of it is

because everything is under the building and we have to tackle it from the side of the building, doing almost a direc-tional drilling method that we would use if we were drilling say under a railway or something like that,” said Staudt.

He added that if the pipe had not been un-derneath the pump-house, repairs would have cost only around $3,000.

“In hindsight you would say that wasn’t a great design we have out there, so we are going to revisit it because the in-frastructure in and around that building is approaching 40 years old,” said Staudt.

It’s thought that the pipe, which should have another 20 years in its lifespan, eroded because of paint inside it.

“Just about the only thing they can see about why this pipe failed is that they coated it, which

was a common tech-nique, and that coating may have been a little toxic,” said Staudt.

The silver lining on the problem is that the city did not need to bor-row money or raise taxes to pay for the emergency repair. On Monday, council authorized tak-ing $650,000 out of its solid waste surplus fund, $200,000 out of its sewer surplus fund, and reas-sign $150,000 that would have been spent this year on upgrades at the spray irrigation fields.

“I’d like to thank staff and previous councils for the foresight in estab-lishing these reserves. We would have a serious issue on our hands – we would have to borrow money or increase taxes or utility fees if that pre-planning had not happened and those re-serves had not been available,” said Mayor Wayne Stetski.

THURSDAY, MAY 30, 2013

MICHAEL DEN TANDT

In Ottawa, the opposition parties are suddenly in a jam, unlike any they’ve encountered in seven-plus years of Harper government. With so many Conservative scandals on the front

burner at one time, and a limited number of allotted questions in the House of Com-mons, how to deal with them all? It’s a logis-tical nightmare.

At best there’s a risk of scandal chaff setting in – targeting-system confusion, caused by excessive shrapnel in the air. At worst there’s scandal overload, followed by scandal burnout, followed by a massive scandal hangover. It’s not like it was in the Mulroney years, when the government parceled out its catastrophes at a leisurely pace, on average one a year. That was so 20th Century. In 2013 everything happens at full throttle – especially, it seems, when the wheels come off what was previously a well-oiled, ruthlessly efficient machine.

Set aside for a moment the Senate ex-pense scandal, concerning the still-un-fathomable $90,000 payment to former Conservative Senator Mike Duffy from for-mer PMO Chief of Staff Nigel Wright. Never mind the simple weirdness of the fact that Wright had to be run down, on the hoof as it were, by an intrepid and apparently fit CTV reporter, Daniele Hamamdjian, and her cameraman, Jimmy MacDonald, during a 4 a.m. jog, before he, Wright, would take his first questions about the affair. Let’s take a glance at the rest of the pack.

First of course is robocalls, a pattern of gerrymandering first unearthed by my Postmedia colleagues Glen McGregor and Stephen Maher in February of last year. Last Thursday Federal Court judge Richard Mosley ruled that in the May 2, 2011 elec-tion, electoral fraud occurred in ridings nationwide, albeit not to a degree great enough to change outcomes. While he did

not point fingers at any individual or party, the judge found the perpetrator or perpe-trators had access to the Conservative Par-ty’s CIMS database. The fraud was high-tech and widespread. Elections Canada continues to investigate.

Next is the Atlantic Canada Opportuni-ties Agency and its patronage-tainted hir-ing of Kevin MacAdam, a former staffer of Defence Minister Peter MacKay. Monday the Halifax Chronicle-Herald reported that a Public Service Commission draft report on the 2010 hiring was edited to delete a paragraph suggesting political in-terference. The edit was done at the be-hest of MacKay’s office, according to the account by the Chronicle-Herald’s Paul McLeod.

Moving from patronage back to alleged fraud, one-time Stephen Harper appointee Arthur Porter is back in the news. Porter, whom the Harper government named chairman of the Security Intelligence Re-view Committee in 2010 and who resigned in 2011 following a National Post investiga-tion into his dealings, was arrested in Pan-ama this week and charged with fraud. As head of the SIRC, Porter had access to state secrets. Extradition proceedings are under way, the Post’s Brian Hutchinson reports. Cue the Graham Greene references.

The backdrop, alongside the Duffy mess of course, has been the excruciating-ly public meltdown in Toronto of the Ford brothers’ political dynasty – staunchly Conservative and pro-Harper. “People want subways and we will have subways when Stephen Harper is the prime minis-ter,” enthused Mayor Rob Ford to the CBC in 2011. “And that’s the bottom line.” The bottom line now is that the PM’s best friend in Canada’s largest metropolis is fighting for his political life and, based on the breakneck pace of resignations from his office, losing.

Breathless? Don’t be. There’s more. If

we broaden our search beyond alleged skullduggery, to bungling and incompe-tence, it’s a cornucopia. Here the opposi-tion runs into difficulty, grappling as it must with relatively humdrum files such as the case of convicted spy Jeffrey Delisle. According to reporting by the Canadian Press, CSIS was aware of Delisle’s illicit activities for months before his arrest, but neglected to inform the RCMP. The Mounties first heard it from the FBI. Op-position leader Tom Mulcair pressed Pub-lic Safety Minister Vic Toews on this bit of outrageousness in the Commons Monday but, amid the din over Duff, it barely regis-tered.

Before much of this hit the news, Harp-er was already struggling to douse the most serious internal brushfire of his tenure, sparked by his refusal to allow social con-servatives in his caucus to re-ignite debate over abortion. That hasn’t gone away. It has been eclipsed, however, by the dead-ly-serious peril in which the Conservative party finds itself over Senate spending, the Duffy payment, and allegations that a Con-servative-controlled Senate committee soft-pedaled a report on Duffy at the be-hest of the PMO – a charge Harper vehe-mently denies.

Looming in the middle distance are ru-mours U.S. approval of the Keystone XL pipeline, linchpin of the government’s re-source strategy and once thought to be a slam dunk, is anything but. Few informed observers would rule it out. But few would rule it in, either. Rejection would be a di-saster, politically for Harper and economi-cally for Canada.

All told, it has been a hellish two weeks for the government. It’s difficult to imagine a cabinet shuffle, however deep and broad, that can change this many channels.

More that 1.8 million people voted in the May 14 provincial election, for a turn-out of 58 per cent of eligible voters, up from the all-time low of 51 per cent in 2009.

The 2013 turnout rebounded to the same level as the 2005 election. Going back to 1983 vote, more than 70 per cent of eligible voters cast ballots, but the turnout steadily declined after that to 55 per cent in 2001.

The number of eligible voters has risen over the years with population growth. As a result, the B.C. Liberals got nearly 44,000 more votes this year than they did in 2009, with the NDP total increasing by 24,000. Overall, 161,000 more people voted in this election than four years ago.

Elections BC completed its final count Wednesday, including 180,000 ballots cast by people outside their home constituen-cies. That was double the 2009 total for absentee ballots, and accounted for much of the increase in turnout over four years ago.

Absentee ballots reversed one close re-sult, giving NDP candidate Selina Robin-son a 35-vote win over B.C. Liberal Steve Kim in Coquitlam-Maillardville. That re-sult will be subject to a judicial recount, where a judge examines all 21,000 ballots to confirm the outcome.

If the count is upheld, Robinson be-comes the 34th NDP MLA, facing off against 49 B.C. Liberals in a legislature that has almost the same party division as in the past four years. Delta South indepen-

Self-taught sculptor Rob Toller has a love affair with rust;

rusting pipes, rusting steel mesh, rusting cogs and rods and wire and cast-off sheets of metal. “Rust creates a historical record of the material as its patina changes over time,” he explains.

From such found materials, together with wood and tree bark and stone, he creates his sculptures, a recent sampling of which will be exhibited in the Gal-lery at Centre 64 from June 11 to July 6.

Outside his back yard studio in the converted garage of the home he shares with his wife, Heather Wattie, in Blarchmont is an eclec-tic collection of raw ma-terials rescued by Rob from various sites around Kimberley. It in-cludes rock from a local quarry, wood bark from a tree in the St. Mary River, melted pig iron dumped long ago by Cominco over the bank above Mark Creek, cog wheels from a disused Tembec mill, wire brushes from a street cleaning vehicle, and

many other locally sourced materials.

Inside the converted garage studio Toller transforms these mate-rials into unique, dy-namic two- and t h r e e - d i m e n s i o n a l sculptures which evolve as he plays with the ma-terials to see where they will go. “It’s all about cu-riosity, that’s what fuels me, curiosity about

what elements, textures, forms will mix,” he says.

Working by hand on an anvil, using a pro-pane forge and electric welder, the forms he creates are only limited by the capacity of this equipment to cut, bend, and polish the materi-als. He also has to take into account the mass of his hanging sculptures, making them light

enough to hang, and the method by which they will be attached to the hangers on the gallery walls.

Starting sculpting about 12 years ago as a recreational hobby, Toller developed his skills and artistic vision to the point where he was selling his work through a Calgary out-let. However, it wasn’t

until after he and his wife moved from High River to Kimberley five years ago that he first exhibited any of his work in a public gallery. In 2011 he entered three pieces of steel sculpture in the Arts on the Edge adjudicated exhibition at Centre 64 and won a couple of major prizes as an emerging artist. He returned the next year as an established artist to carry off more top honours. The hang-ing committee and the jurors were wowed by his original designs and exciting combinations of materials.

His upcoming solo exhibition in the Gallery at Centre 64 will feature about 20 pieces of his recent work, both free-standing 3-dimen-sional sculptures and 2-dimensional hanging pieces in metal, rock, and wood. The show can be seen Tuesdays through Saturdays be-tween 1 and 5 p.m. with a catered opening re-ception on Saturday, June 15, to which the public is invited. Admis-sion is free.

dent Vicki Huntington and the B.C. Green Party’s Andrew Weaver in Oak Bay-Gordon Head round out the 85-seat legislature.

In another close race, Saanich North and the Islands, NDP candidate Gary Hol-man extended his margin of victory to 163 votes once absentee ballots were added to the election-night total that had him 50 votes ahead.

Once the results are made official June

5, MLAs can be sworn in and Premier Christy Clark can announce her cabinet lineup. Clark will also reveal where she will seek a seat, having lost Vancouver-Point Grey to the NDP’s David Eby.

Clark has said several B.C. Liberal MLAs have offered to step aside for her, and she is considering running for a seat outside her home city of Vancouver.

The makeup of the B.C. legislature remains almost the same as it has been for the past four years, although there are numerous new faces on both sides.

Heat rises to the top in tourneyTRE VOR CR AWLEY

Sports Editor

Baseball season has begun as spring transi-tions into summer, and the Cranbrook Heat are back out on the dia-monds with a strong performance at a tour-nament in Salmo this past weekend, where they won first place.

The girls put on a strong showing in the round robin portion of the event, going unde-feated with three wins and a tie. The Heat brought their game against the West Koote-nay Rockers with a 6-2 victory, and carried that momentum into their second outing against the Kelowna Outlaws, winning by a whopping score of 10-1.

The Heat then went up against another Okanagan team, and scored a lot of runs while downing the Kelowna Warriors 10-6, but finished up their round-robin action with a 2-2 draw against the West Kootenay War-riors.

MMA fighters Sheldon Doll and Rob Roy keep themselves sharp as they prepare for their bouts at Battle for the Border: Redemption on Saturday night at Western Financial Place.

Pro fighters can’t wait to get into the cage

Battle for the Border: Redemption will include local MMA talent against cross-border rivals

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

For the professionals, this is the calm before the storm.

Local pro fighters hit the mats and practiced their technique on Mon-day night as they pre-pare for Battle for the Border: Redemption on Saturday night at West-ern Financial Place.

Cranbrook is fielding three local pro fighters as Sheldon Doll, Rob Roy and Brandon MacArthur will step into the cage to represent their hometowns.

Headlining the event is Derek Boyle, the main event from the debut of Battle for the Border last September, who defeat-ed Aaron Armstrong in a unanimous decision.

Boyle will be facing off against Eben Kane-shiro, a fighter out of the U.S. who has a record of 14-9.

Another headlining event is an all-female bout between Char-maine Tweet and Aman-da Bell. Tweet has a re-cord of three wins and three losses, while Bell has only one profession-al fight under her belt, however, she has a 6-1 record as an amateur.

Sheldon Doll, a local fighter who lost his

matchup in September, is eager to get back in the cage and prove him-self.

“Took a little time off after the last fight in Cranbrook and I’ve just been training my butt off two times a day, my work schedule allows me to do that and I took some time off school,” said Doll. “Just took rest time, developed some skills and progressed.”

Doll is going up against Dan Walders, a fighter out of Calgary who specifically asked for a match against the Cranbrook fighter.

“He just requested to fight me,” said Doll. “I guess he saw my last couple fights so he asked to fight me and I said said sure.”

No matter which way the fight goes, Doll feels ready.

“I’m constantly working on all my MMA skills, wrestling ju jitsu, boxing so I’ll probably mix it up and do more of a well-rounded MMA game,” Doll said.

“A lot of the time I get dragged into stand-up because I love to do it, but I train everything so I’m going to be a mixed martial artist this time. Use everything facet of the game.”

Another local profes-sional who will be step-ping up into the cage is Rob Roy, who will be fighting in front of family and friends for the first time in a few years.

“I haven’t fought in about two years now, so I’m looking forward to getting back in there in front of the hometown crowd,” Roy said. “Been doing a lot of stuff to prepare for it, a lot of ju jitsu, a lot of boxing.

“It’s going to be fun.”Roy has three wins

and five losses under his belt, but is pretty evenly matched against his op-ponent, Derek Clark, who has three wins and four losses on his re-cord.

Roy said he knows a bit about Clark, but is confident in his skills.

“I want it to be a dog-fight, tooth and nail,” Roy said. “I want it to go all over the place. We’re mixed martial artists, the fight should go ev-erywhere.

“If you want to stand up, it’s boxing, if you want to kick box, it’s kickboxing. We got MMA for a reason. Mix it up.”

Tickets for Battle for the Border: Redemption are still on sale at West-ern Financial Place.

Blackhawks clip Red Wings in Game 7Jay Cohen

Associated Press

CHICAGO - Brent Seabrook sent a wrist shot past goalie Jimmy Howard’s glove 3:35 into overtime to give the Chicago Blackhawks a 2-1 victory over the De-troit Red Wings in Game 7 of their second-round playoff series on Wednesday night.

The Blackhawks, who had the best record in the NHL regular sea-son, rallied from a 3-1 series deficit to reach the Western Conference finals against the de-fending Stanley Cup champion Los Angeles Kings.

For just the second time in NHL history, the final four teams remain-ing in the playoffs are the four most recent Stanley Cup winners. Chicago captured the Cup in 2010.

Seabrook picked up a loose puck and skated in on Howard through the middle of the ice, with Detroit defence-man Niklas Kronwall in front of him. His shot hit Kronwall’s leg before it sailed into the left side of the net for the de-fenceman’s first goal of the post-season.

“I don’t know if I saw it go in to be honest,” Seabrook said. “I just

heard the horn going and the boys jumping out. It was a pretty ex-hausting game, but I think I was more tired during the celebration with guys jumping and pushing me in the face and dragging me down.

“It’s exciting. You don’t get to do that too many times.”

The sellout crowd of 22,103 roared as Seabrook skated over to the boards and was mobbed by his delirious teammates.

Howard put his arm around Kronwall, who was down on one knee, and tried to console him while the Blackhawks celebrated.

It was quite a change from the end of the third period, when the Black-hawks thought they had scored the go-ahead goal. But it was waved off with less than two minutes remaining by referee Stephen Wal-kom, who called a pair of penalties behind the play.

Patrick Sharp had given Chicago a 1-0 lead in the second period.

Henrik Zetterberg tied it in the third for No. 7 Detroit, which beat second-seeded Ana-heim in seven games in the first round. Howard finished with 33 saves.

Red Wings forward Pavel Datsyuk was held without a point, closing out an ineffective series for the Russian star.

Chicago made it to the conference finals for the first time since it won the title three years ago and will host Los Angeles in Game 1 on Saturday night. The Kings advanced with a 2-1 victory over San Jose in Game 7 on Tuesday night.

Pittsburgh will host Boston in the opener of the Eastern finals on Sat-urday.

Chicago was one of the favourites to win the Stanley Cup when the playoffs began, storming

to the Presidents’ Tro-phy during the lock-out-shortened season. The Blackhawks then boosted their creden-tials with a five-game win over Minnesota in the first round and a convincing 4-1 victory against the Red Wings in the series opener.

But Howard and De-troit responded with three straight victories, pushing Chicago to the edge of elimination. The frustrated Blackhawks held a team meeting the day after Game 4, where the seeds were planted for their improbable comeback.

They felt one win would turn it around, and they were right.

Three victories later - in which the Blackhawks outscored the Red Wings 10-5 after managing just two goals in Games 2-4 - they became the 25th team to win a series after trailing 3-1.

It was the first time in franchise history Chica-go has made such a comeback.

Crawford finished with 26 saves, continu-ing his strong perfor-mance after allowing a soft goal that nearly proved costly in Game 6. He was especially tough after Detroit turned up the pressure early in the

third.The Blackhawks cele-

brated wildly when Niklas Hjalmarsson blasted a slap shot by Howard with 1:47 left in regulation, prompting cheers from the raucous crowd.

But Chicago forward Brandon Saad and De-troit defenceman Kyle Quincey got tangled up in front of the Red Wings bench. Walkom stopped play to give roughing penalties to both players as the Blackhawks went in for what appeared to be the go-ahead goal.

Blackhawks captain Jonathan Toews had a long discussion with one of the officials while the cheers turned to boos as the crowd real-ized the goal was waved off. The Red Wings then rushed down the ice, and Johan Franzen’s shot was blocked by de-fenceman Duncan Keith.

After a seesaw series with all sorts of twists and turns, Chicago and Detroit faced off one more time in a Western Conference playoff game.

The Red Wings will move to the East after this season as part of NHL realignment while the Blackhawks remain in the West.

Canada’s Raonic advances at French OpenC anadian Press

PARIS - Canadian Milos Raonic defeated Frenchman Michael Llodra in four sets Wednesday to advance to the third round of the French Open.

Raonic, the No. 15 seed from Thornhill, Ont., had 24 aces in the 7-5, 3-6, 7-6 (3), 6-2 vic-tory on the Lenglen showcase court at Ro-land Garros.

“It was a difficult match,” said Raonic, who improved to 4-0 lifetime against Llodra. “Mica’s not just tough for me to play, he’s tough for everyone.

“I’m very content with my tennis, I played well today. My serve is the most important part of my game and it worked well today. When it does that, I al-ways play better.”

Raonic will next face big-serving South Afri-can Kevin Anderson, who beat Russian Evge-

ny Donskoy 6-7 (8), 6-1, 7-5, 6-2.

Raonic recorded four breaks in 12 chances against Llodra.

“He does a lot of things to make you feel uncomfortable,” Raonic said of the local favour-ite. “I felt like at one point I just let it get too much, we were playing under his terms rather than mine. In the first set I created a lot of oppor-tunities for myself, espe-cially on his serve.”

“It was a good match,” he added. “I won but I wish I could have gotten going a little bit better. But fortunate in that tie-breaker when I felt like my back was up against the wall, I got going and sort of carried that through the fourth set.”

Also Wednesday, qualifier Vasek Pospisil of Vancouver dropped a 7-6 (9), 6-4, 6-7 (4), 2-6, 8-6 decision to Argenti-na’s Horacio Zeballos in a match that lasted over

four hours.The match began late

Tuesday but was sus-pended due to darkness in the fourth set. When play resumed, Pospisil took the fourth set and moved up a break at 4-2 in the decider only to give up a break a game later.

Zaballos, who beat Rafael Nadal in February on clay in Chile, later broke for a 7-6 lead and held serve for the win.

“It was very disap-pointing,” Pospisil said.

“I was up 4-2 and com-pletely (gave) him three points in the next game. It was so unlike me. I’m hardly likely to give a break back, especially after fighting so hard to get into winning posi-tion.

“I came from two sets down against a good clay player, It was still a positive match for me. My game has been im-proving a lot. Maybe my head was not ready to win a match like this. Maybe my game is im-

proving faster than my head is ready for.”

Pospisil was looking for his second career vic-tory at a Grand Slam. He won a first-round match at the U.S. Open in 2011.

In men’s doubles play, Toronto’s Daniel Nestor and new Swedish partner Robert Lindst-edt came back from an early 2-5 hole for a 7-6 (8), 7-6 (4) first-round win over Russian Mikhail Youzhny and Sergiy Stakovsky of Ukraine.

“I just heard the horn going and the boys

jumping out. It was a pretty exhausting game, but I think I

was more tired during the

celebration with guys jumping and pushing me in the face and dragging

me down.”Brent Seabrook

Rangers fire Tortorella after

early playoff exitir a Podell

Associated Press

NEW YORK - The Rangers fired combative coach John Tortorella on Wednesday, four days after New York was elim-inated from the Stanley Cup playoffs.

Tortorella was unex-pectedly dismissed with one year left on his con-tract. He led the Rangers to the Eastern Confer-ence finals last year and into the second round this year before New York was eliminated in five games by the Boston Bruins.

The fiery Tortorella, who was hired to replace Tom Renney in February 2009, achieved some success with the Rangers but couldn’t match the Stanley Cup title he earned in 2004 with the Tampa Bay Lightning.

Rangers general manager Glen Sather met with the media via a conference call Wednes-day afternoon. He did not a name an immedi-ate replacement, but hopes to have one in place by the June 30 NHL draft in Newark, N.J.

“I felt this was a deci-sion that had to be made

going forward,” Sather said. “I think he was shocked, but he is a gen-tleman and he took it very well.”

Last season, Tortorel-la led the Rangers to 51 wins - the second-most in franchise history - and 109 points before they were beaten in six games by New Jersey in the conference finals. He fin-ished his Rangers tenure in fourth place on the team’s career coaching wins list.

The 54-year-old Tor-torella got the Rangers back into the playoffs in this lockout-shortened season, and New York outlasted Washington in seven games in the first round of the playoffs be-fore being knocked out by Boston.

The Rangers entered the 48-game season as a prime contender to win the Stanley Cup, espe-cially after the off-season acquisition of top for-ward Rick Nash in a trade with the Columbus Blue Jackets.

After a slow start, the Rangers rallied to a 26-18-4 record and the No. 6 seed in the Eastern Con-ference playoffs.

LeaDINg THe CHaRge: The Mount Baker Wild rugby squad returned victorious with a dominant 32-0 win over the Crowsnest High School on Tuesday afternoon in Alberta. The Wild got their offence on two tries from Brody Kappler, along with a pair from Matt Rushworth. Taylor Bond and Sid Verma contributed with singles, while Tallon Creber notched a con-version. The game was faced-paced with lots of side to side action, and the Wild did an excellent job in retaining and recycling the ball. Wild coach Sean Sinclair also noted that the game was a nice way to bounce back after losing to Nelson in the zone qualifier for provincials. Pictured above: Logan Marion carries the ball up the field while attempting to avoid a tackle from a Crowsnest High School player.

New sports make IOC shortlist for 2020 Olympic inclusion

Stephen WilSonAssociated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia - Three months after being dropped from the 2020 Olympics, wrestling won a reprieve Wednesday and made the IOC shortlist for in-clusion in the games.

Also making the cut were squash and a com-bined baseball-softball bid.

Eight sports were vying for a single open-ing on the lineup. Elimi-nated from contention were five sports - karate, roller sports, sport climb-ing, wakeboarding and the Chinese martial art of wushu.

The IOC executive board will submit wres-tling, squash and base-ball-softball to the full IOC assembly for a final decision on Sept. 8 in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

“It’s a good mix of team sports and individ-ual,” IOC vice-president Thomas Bach said.

The decision came

after the eight sports fed-erations made closed-door presentations to the IOC executive board.

The board voted by secret ballot over several rounds, with wrestling winning on the first round with eight of the 14 votes.

Baseball-softball beat karate 9-5 in a head-to-vote to win its spot on the list. Squash got through in the final round, get-ting eight votes to defeat wushu with four and sport climbing with two.

Men’s baseball and women’s softball, which have been off the pro-gram since the 2008 Bei-jing Games, merged into a single federation to im-prove their chances of getting back in.

“We are humbled and honoured,” said Riccar-do Fraccari, co-presi-dent of the World Base-ball Softball Confedera-tion. “The decision moti-vates us to work even harder on behalf of the athletes.”

With a strong majority, the BC Liberal government

has a clear mandate to pursue economic development and job creation and an obligation to balance the provincial budget.

Balancing the budget this year will mean tough decisions by government, no tax increases, and saying “no” to spending requests

outside the budget.

A mandate for economic development in resource

Throughout history we have strived to understand the

universe and its coun-terparts, asking ques-tions such as “What is the meaning of life?” or “Is there more to life than we can compre-hend?” However, the biggest question of all is something we all co-ex-ist in and face each and every day – reality. It is the epitome of the un-known, and the mysteri-ous natural phenome-non we have yet to un-cover while gracing this earth. My perspective however is not less valid then the next, we inci-dentally have construct-ed this thought process over years of evolve-ments in questioning, language, and writing. Therefore, this article is no more than a satire, and the years we have spent “Questioning” only benefit the lives of me and you today.

Since the beginning

of human life we have created history every-where, and as far as we can look back there will always be questions about life we have yet to answer. Some questions can be answered scien-tifically, while others may be answered from our very own experi-ences on this earth. However, reality is nei-ther a question nor an answer; it is something I believe we have created ourselves in the midst of our evolvement through time. There-fore, reality is not a phe-nomenon at all but in-stead the universe and all of its counterparts, and the word itself is only an illusion.

I am not trying to say reality does not exist, because it most certain-ly does, but instead I am simply just expanding my own thoughts on the matter, while leaving it up to you to decide for yourself. For me reality is only a word and a

definition created by humanity. It is the result of thousands of years of knowledge in time, and I personally believe that we did not start “Ques-tioning” this until we had developed commu-nication with each other. Realistically, life is just an occurrence that we have spent so much time trying to un-derstand instead of just accepting it for what it gives us. If I were to die tomorrow the world would live on, and real-ity would still exist be-cause it is not a part of me, you, or your favour-ite childhood pet.

I could write about why reality is a miscon-ception all day, but the human mind is some-thing that holds its own beliefs and perspec-tives, and that is the beauty of individuality – we all choose our own path in life. Subse-quently reality is the state of things, as they actually exist, which I

The craft of quilting is alive and well, and will be on display in all its spendour this Friday and Saturday, May 31 and June 1, in Cranbrook.

The Cranbrook Quilters Guild is holding “Stories in Thread,” featuring more than 200 locally crafted quilts.

The Guild holds its show every two years, and this year the venue is the Cranbrook Alliance Church.

Guild member Bev Higgins said quilts — some of which are for sale as well as display — cover the spectrum. “Some are more traditional, some are

quite artistic — there’s something for everybody,” she said.

The quilts are also being judged, and by the time the show opens, at-tendees will be able to see those con-sidered the best of the best.

Tickets are five dollars for adults and two dollars for students. Children under 12 are free. Times are 12 noon to 7 p.m. Friday, May 31, and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, June 1.

The Cranbrook Quilters Guild has been in existence for more than 25 years.

find rather ironic. How can we question the ex-istence of things with-out prior knowledge of it in the first place? Take this article for an exam-ple, I could hand it to the Daily Townsman of-fice or I could not, but in the end you would not know if I had completed it without physically reading it for yourself. Therefore, reality is not as far-fetched as we think, it is just our own decisions on what we choose to believe, and writing still remains the most influential form of belief. Take the most appraised piece of liter-ature created “The Holy Bible” one book had captured the hearts and souls of millions, but who am I to say it is not the words of God him-self? Interesting isn’t it, yet we still “Question” reality when for centu-ries an imperative ex-ample of the matter had

been right under our nose the entire time.

My existence on this earth may not be much to prove anything, but the word “Existence” will always be some-thing brought up for centuries until we can fully understand life’s concealed mysteries. Reality is something we will always “Question” and no matter what, there will always be them until the end of time. Because time is reality, and the fact we strive to understand it is something I will never be able to recognize. However, I do believe one thing and one thing only – reality does not exist for me, but it most certainly can for you.

CALGARY — The president of the Insur-ance Bureau of Canada is offering a gloomy forecast of more ex-treme weather in the years to come and is urging municipalities to fix crumbling storm-water infra-structure to prepare.

“The numbers would indicate the

possibility is becoming more the reality. We’ve seen a change in weather patterns ... the experts that we’ve con-sulted say that we can expect more severe weather across the country,’’ Don Forg-eron said Wednesday following a speech to the Calgary Chamber of Commerce.

“We can choose to ignore it — bury your

head in the sand and not do anything about it — or we can take a look at what’s hap-pened and use that as a bit of a guide going for-ward.’’

Annual payouts from flooding, fire, hail and windstorms in-creased from $100 mil-lion about 10 years ago to $1 billion between 2009 and 2012.

“The insurance in-dustry claim payouts are the canary in the coal mine,’’ Fogeron said. “It’s a bit of a sign or an indication of how much the cost is to communities across the country and we’ve seen those numbers, especially here in Al-berta, just skyrocket over the last four years or so.’’

Earlier this month, the Insurance Bureau confirmed that added weather costs have prompted some insur-ance companies to double the deductible for weather-related claims to as much as $3,000.

Forgeron deflected questions about whether Canadians can expect escalating insurance premiums.

Disaster payouts ‘canary in the coal mine’ for future weather: insurance head

Don Forgeron

He said many insurers are being very “proac-tive’’ with their cus-tomers to make sure they are prepared for problems that can arise.

Forgeron said aging municipal storm water and sewer infrastruc-ture is the big worry. The Federation of Ca-nadian Municipalities has estimated there are $69 billion worth of outstanding repairs, he said.

“While science has confirmed the weather is getting worse, we also know that aging storm water and sewer infrastructure failure is to blame for most of the damage.’’

Hi, this is Patricia Newell from A-B-C Country Restaurant in Cranbrook. Knight & Company have been our accountants for more than 16 years. I find Gary very personable and his staff friendly and helpful. Gary has helped me personally and financially over the years. I recommend Knight & Company for you and your business!

Patricia newell:

It has been almost two months since we switched from

HST to PST. The usual

questions I received around April 1st were: “What is taxable?”. I thought that in this is-

sue of the Problem Solver I would ap-proach that question from the angle of “What PST exemptions are available?”

PST ExemptionsAll permanent exemp-tions from the previous PST system are re-im-plemented, including:

food for human con-sumption (e.g. basic groceries and prepared food such as restaurant meals)

books, newspapers and magazines

children’s clothing

bicycles

prescription medica-tions and household medical aids such as cough syrup and pain medications

These exemptions are available to all purchas-ers. Purchasers don’t need to do anything to get the exemption.

Providing Exemptions to CustomersSome exemptions are only available to certain purchasers in certain circumstances. Busi-nesses need to keep specific information in their records to show why they didn’t charge PST on the sale or lease. If businesses don’t do this, they can be assessed for the tax that should have been

collected, plus penalties and interest.

To provide certain ex-emptions, businesses must get the purchaser’s PST number or, if the purchaser doesn’t have one, a completed PST exemption certificate, otherwise, the business must charge and collect PST. These exemptions include:

Goods purchased solely for resale or lease

Software or telecom-munication services purchased solely for re-sale

Goods or software pur-chased to be incorpo-rated into goods for re-sale

If the purchaser pro-vides the required docu-mentation after the pur-chase but within 180 days, businesses may refund or credit the PST charged.

It is the purchaser’s re-sponsibility to ensure they qualify for the ex-emption. If the purchas-er completes an exemp-tion certificate but they don’t qualify for the ex-emption, the purchaser is responsible for pay-ing the PST.

PST Exemption CertificatesThere are a number of exemption certificates that qualifying custom-ers can complete to get

a PST exemption at the point of sale or lease. If you want further infor-mation on any of these exemption certificates please Google the form number after the ex-emption certificate list-ed below. For example FIN 490.

General (for goods pur-chased for resale or lease where the custom-er doesn’t have a PST number) (FIN 490) (PDF)

Adult-sized clothing and footwear for chil-dren under 15 years of age (FIN 425) (PDF)

Aqua culturists (FIN 456) (PDF)

C o m m e r c i a l f i s h -ers (FIN 455) (PDF)

Contractors (FIN 491) (PDF) (for contracts for the supply and installa-tion of improvements to real property – exemp-tions are limited to very specific circumstances)

Subcontractors (FIN 493) (PDF)

Farmers (FIN 458) (PDF)

Gift of a vehicle (FIN 319) (PDF)

Multi jurisdictional ve-hicles (FIN 441) (PDF)

Out-of-province deliv-ery (FIN 462) (PDF)

Production machinery and equipment (FIN 492) (PDF)

Self-assessment on software (FIN 443) (PDF)

Vehicles or aircraft for use outside B.C. (FIN 440) (PDF)

More information on the use of exemption certificates and the in-formation and docu-ments businesses need to keep when providing exemptions is currently in development and will be available from the Ministry of Finance soon.

Non-Taxable Sales and ServicesWhen a good or service is not subject to PST, a specific exemption in the legislation isn’t needed. Similar to the old PST, the following isn’t taxable under the new PST.

sales of real property such as residential housing or commercial real estate

admissions and mem-berships

professional services (other than legal servic-es)

transportation fares (e.g. bus, train, ferry, airline)

For more information on PST go to the Minis-try of Finance web site http://www.gov.bc.ca/fin/

Through a prov-ince-wide network of 125 municipal Cham-ber of Commerce, the B r i t i s h C o l u m b i a Chamber of Commerce represents the interests and concerns of 32,000 businesses.

As the provincial um-brella organization, the BC Chamber is at the forefront of a diverse and vibrant network of Chambers and Boards of Trade. The BC Chamber is linked to businesses of all sizes, in all industry sectors and in all regions of British Columbia. The BC Chamber of Com-merce is the most influ-ential business associa-tion in BC and the provincial leader in public policy focused on developing healthy, vibrant and sustainable communities.

Through the singular grass roots policy de-velopment process, the BC Chamber has an un-precedented record of governments acting on their recommendations.

Chamber Director Jea-nette Sissons has been

nominated to the board of the British Columbia Chamber of Com-merce.

Congratulations to an-other Chamber Director Elizabeth Ahlgren who was named JCI Mem-ber of the Year at the recent JCI BC/Yukon Regional convention held in Vernon.

Why travel to Paris? There’s the history, the architecture, the shop-ping, museums and cul-

ture, not to mention the wine and cafes that draw people to this fa-mous city. Paris holds something of interest for every traveller.

Paris is home to sev-eral famous landmarks and monuments that have awed and intrigued travellers for decades.

Towering over the city of Paris more than 1,000 feet high, the Eiffel Tower is one of the greatest modern archi-tectural masterpieces in the world. It took build-ers longer than two years to construct 18,038 pieces of iron for the tower’s grand opening on March 31, 1889. Guests can visit the tower and purchase a ticket to either ride the

elevator or climb 1,665 stairs to the third level and observe the city from a height of 905 feet.

The Louvre is the largest art museum in the world. The muse-um’s original structure was built as a palace for King Louis XIV in the late 12th century. More than eight million people visit the museum each year to view original artwork that dates back thou-sands of years, such as Michelangelo’s “The Slave” and Leonardo da Vinci’s “Mona Lisa”.

While the city holds a

heavy cultural and his-torical significance, it also has a more modern side. Opening in 1992, Disneyland Paris, or Euro Disney, is another popular attraction in the region.

On the Avenue des Champs-Elysee, you will find a luxury shop-ping experience parallel to New York’s 5th Ave-nue. Prestigious bou-tiques like Louis Vuit-ton, Guerlain, Chanel and Yves Rocher are just some of its luxury shops that attract people from all over the world.

You may have heard about the hunchback who roamed the towers of the Cathedral No-tre-Dame de Paris. It was just a work of fiction created by the French author Victor Hugo, but the cathedral that housed the living mon-strosity is very much real and an example of amazing Gothic archi-tecture.

The gardens of Paris are a tranquil oasis. It is said that this is the greenest city in all of Eu-rope, with a quarter of its land dedicated to

green space. The Jardin du Luxembourg fea-tures a sculpture of Rodin, the first scaled down Statue of Liberty model and a children’s carousel.

The question isn’t “why travel to Paris?” but rather “why wouldn’t you travel to Paris?”

Gr aham huGhesCanadian Press

MONTREAL — On any given day Tchae Measroch could find himself crawling around on all fours, splashing about in a bathtub or tapping on a bear skull, all in the name of his art.

Such is the life of a foley artist — someone who reproduces every-day sounds for film, video games and TV,

with the profession named after Jack Dono-van Foley, who pio-neered the craft in late 1920s Hollywood.

The 37-year-old Montrealer toils in a small, dimly lit studio that looks more like a disorganized storage space containing many props, some of which closely resemble curb-side junk.

This is where he

cranks out sound effects for video games.

There aren’t many people like him. While Canada closes in on the status of being the world’s second-biggest video-game producer, with more than 16,000 employees, there are only a handful of full-time foley artists.

Relying on his imagi-nation, the Ubisoft em-ployee improvises

sounds based on what he sees on-screen while working on games like Assassin’s Creed 4.

He might remove the skin from a banana to mimic a zombie peeling the skin off its face. He’s used an old door knob and latch in order to replicate the sound of a centuries-old musket gun cocking.

In this line of work, as it turns out, there

might be unusual uses for a medical tool whose regular intended pur-pose is probing body cavities.

“It happened once that I couldn’t find a pair of police handcuffs in my stuff,’’ he recalls. “So, from my ‘Hospital Items Box’ I grabbed a speculum to sound the cuffs.’’

Axes, bottles, boots, chains, old tires, swords — they’re never far from reach.

His tool kit involves anything he can use to replicate a sound. He might find such objects at home or in the most unlikely of places, such as garbage cans.

And there’s plenty of

trial and error.While trying to simu-

late the sound of some-one being clubbed over the head, for instance, Measroch quickly real-ized his bear skull wouldn’t produce the desired effect.

In the end, a coconut did the trick.

Starting out at age 20, Measroch worked alongside a veteran foley artist on B movies, assisting him for three years before venturing out as a freelancer and picking up film work.

Measroch eventual-ly left the movie busi-ness and ventured into gaming, lured by the offer of greater creative challenges and recog-

nition.Life as a foley artist

has had its challenges.“It’s like being the

stuntman of sound,’’ he says.

Measroch recalls in-juring himself while working on a movie. He’d put his hands through glass while try-ing to emulate the sound of a woman, held captive in a cabin, bang-ing on the window.

Visitors to his studio will occasionally sug-gest he has a dream job. Measroch makes sure to point out that it’s not just fun and games.

“Sometimes it’s a tough job,’’ he says, “and you’ve got to be ready to get your hands dirty.’’

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Try to assume a more laid-back attitude. Consolidate recent suc-cesses. Your listening skills will emerge while you’re in a discus-sion with a sibling or neighbor. You need to know what you are hearing in order to evaluate what is going on. Tonight: Take some much-needed downtime. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Meetings and networking point to success. You will instill your support systems with new energy and knowledge. You un-derstand your desires, and you know where you are heading. Others can follow you if they want. Tonight: Make weekend plans if you have not already. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. You could feel overwhelmed by everything that is happening around you. If you assume responsibility, you will like the outcome. Only you can control certain demons or issues. Tonight: Be available for a late-night discussion.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your ability to deal with the many people around you will make a substantial difference. Allow greater give-and-take between you and someone else. You laugh, and others relax. You naturally lead with your height-ened sense of direction. Tonight: It’s a piece of cake. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You’ll wonder what might be the best way to proceed, as a partner seems more open to possibilities. You could be amazed by what occurs. Re-main laid-back, and be willing to change direction. Allow this person to be more dominant. Tonight: Enjoy the conversation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Listen to feedback. How you handle a situation depends on your ability to flex with others. At the moment, you need to incorporate more of what others desire when making plans. You will have your way soon enough -- don’t worry. Tonight: Listen to suggestions, then decide. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be in a situation

where you want to say exactly what you think, and want to be encouraged to do so as well. Know that you might get a very strong -- maybe even negative -- reaction if you reveal your true thoughts. Tonight: Run errands. Free up the weekend. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Your ability to make headway and say what you feel when you want adds tremendous di-mension to a relationship. Your imagination flourishes in this situation. Focus on a child or a new love interest. This person needs your time and attention. Tonight: Ever playful. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could be out of energy when it comes to dealing with a difficult family member. You understand this person much more than you might want to.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Make calls and seek out differ-ent opinions before scheduling a meeting. You’ll want to have

a sense of direction about where this group is heading. You are a natural leader, and you don’t need to press a point. Others tend to defer to you. Tonight: Hang out with a favorite person. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You suddenly could be weighing the pros and cons of a particular situation. You might want to say that you have had enough, so be prepared to act on this verbal-ization. Check out a purchase with care. Don’t spend what you don’t have. Tonight: Treat a friend to dinner. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You are very much in the moment. You might not even bother to investigate some im-portant information you heard through the grapevine. Try to be more alert, especially if a boss or some other authority figure heads your way.

Dear Annie: I am in my 20s and am en-gaged to a beautiful girl. Our religion prohib-its sex before marriage. But when “Donna” tells me to stop kissing her, I persist. I don’t see why not. It’s just kissing. Donna says she has not been firm enough with me and when she says no, she means no. Yesterday, I was sitting next to Donna and started kissing her on the lips. She said no, and when I didn’t stop, she slapped my face. It felt like I had been stung by a bee. Donna told me she definitely had to slap me. My cousin said that in a dating situation, the woman sets the rules, and it is her pre-rogative to slap a man’s face if she feels he has gone too far. Do you agree? I don’t think she had to slap me. -- John Dear John: It’s hard to believe you are living in this century. While we don’t recommend that women go around slapping men, any-thing you do after Donna says “no” could be considered assault or even attempted rape. She is entitled to defend herself. She could call the police. Show some respect for your girlfriend, and stop kissing her when she asks you to stop. You sound too immature to get married. Dear Annie: I am a 32-year-old profession-al woman and a newlywed. I have been best friends with “Martha” since the first grade, although we began to drift apart after col-lege. But we always talked about our future weddings and vowed to attend each other’s. Meanwhile, I moved to the East Coast, and Martha moved to the West Coast. We stayed in touch and occasionally saw each other in our hometown. I was not asked to be a bridesmaid at Mar-tha’s wedding, but I traveled to California with my fiance to attend and also went to her bridal shower in our hometown. Very few others did because of the cost and the dis-tance. Her parents told me they were thrilled that I was there. About 10 months after Martha’s wedding, I married on the East Coast. Of course, Martha was invited, but she RSVP’d that she could not attend. She gave no reason. My first anniversary is approaching, and I have yet to hear any words of congratulations from my “best friend” -- no card or gift or even a phone call. I also haven’t heard anything from her parents. Back in my hometown, my mother occasionally runs into Martha’s mother. She has never mentioned my mar-riage. I am terribly hurt. It seems clear that Mar-tha doesn’t care about me or want to contin-ue our friendship. I am trying to put this be-hind me, but I am puzzled that neither she nor her family had the common courtesy to send a note of congratulations. I am thinking of “unfriending” her on Facebook. -- Raised with Manners Dear Manners: Martha was remiss not to send a card of congratulations. But when friends go in different directions -- figura-tively as well as physically -- the closeness tends to fade. It doesn’t mean Martha no longer cares, only that the friendship has be-come a casual interest. Facebook is actually perfect for that. You can keep track of each other without having to invest any genuine effort. Dear Annie: I believe you missed the boat with your answer to “Irritated by Lack of Thoughtfulness,” who said a woman carried on a cellphone conversation during a funer-al. You said it was impolite, but added that the phone could be turned on “mute” or “vibrate” and emergencies handled out of earshot. We have lost all sensitivity to others. At funerals, weddings and church services, phones should be left at home or in the car. If something is so important that one must stay connected, one should not attend the function. Not so long ago, cellphones didn’t exist, and we managed to survive. -- Litchfield, Maine Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

AliciA chAngAssociated Press

LOS ANGELES — A raven-sized creature that lived about 150 mil-lion years ago is back on its perch, a new study says.

Widely pegged as the earliest known bird, Ar-chaeopteryx’s status was called into question two years ago by Chi-nese scientists. They proposed yanking the prehistoric creature off the “bird’’ branch of the evolutionary family tree and moving it onto a closely related lineage of birdlike dinosaurs.

Now an internation-al team led by the Royal Belgian Institute of Nat-ural Sciences believes Archaeopteryx should indeed be considered a bird.

The famed fossil was discovered in 1861 in Germany and quickly became an evolution-ary icon. Archaeopteryx possessed part-bird, part-reptile traits. It sported broad wings and feathers like a bird, but it also had three-fin-gered claws, sharp teeth and a long bony tail similar to a dinosaur.

Fossil discoveries of feathered dinosaurs in northeastern China over the past two de-cades have challenged Archaeopteryx’s place

in bird evolution.The latest evidence

suggesting Archaeop-teryx had more in com-mon with birds than di-nosaurs comes from the discovery of an intact, well-preserved skeleton of a previously un-known dinosaur dubbed Aurornis xui. It lived during the middle to late Jurassic era in China’s Liaoning prov-ince where many early birds and feathered di-nosaurs roamed.

Belgian researcher Pascal Godefroit and his team compared the anatomy of the newly discovered dinosaur fossil to a variety of birds and dinosaurs to determine their rela-tionship. The analysis, published in Thursday’s issue of the journal Na-ture, classifies Archae-opteryx back into the bird category.

Lawrence Witmer, a bird evolution expert at Ohio University, called the analysis compelling. But he said it’s still tough to tease apart that segment of the family tree.

“All of these little feathered species run-ning and flapping around ... were all very similar,’’ Witmer, who had no role in the re-search, said in an email.

Bird or dinosaur? Recent discovery restores fossil

creature Archaeopteryx to its perch

DAryl c AlDer

They’re so darned hand-some, those springtime birds. Catch a glimpse of

a male Rufous Hummingbird in the sun or a Canvasback Duck in the choppy, grey water and you have to wonder ...

Even the Blackbirds with their red and yellow wing patches or yellow head and breast attract attention. De-spite being brightly colored, they’re not always easy to see.

The Yellow Warbler, an overall bright yellow bird with reddish streaks, disappears into a willow shrub clothed in lime-green leaves and catkins.

The Blue Jay too, with it’s blue crest, dark necklace and flashing white patches, can be hard to spot.

However, a careful listener can discern a wide variety of distinctive songs and calls, es-pecially in the spring when birds are establishing territory and attracting a mate.

While exploring Isadore Canyon recently, an unusual bird call at dusk had me check-ing the field guides. This pic-turesque, wild area north of Cranbrook, shares many of the qualities of Elizabeth Lake. Drive about six kilometres north of the Tamarack Mall to-wards Fort Steele along High-way 3/95 and turn right into a pullout and park. Follow a short trail downhill through the forest, step over a wire fence and walk left on the old rail grade. Isadore Canyon is the route used by the CPR to connect Wardner and Cran-brook until 1970. The trail skirts interesting rock bluffs and marshy ponds as well as grasslands, rolling hills and mixed forests.

The rather loud ker-WEE? announced a small, secretive bird of freshwater marshes that spends a lot of time hiding in the reeds. Soras are very elu-sive birds who skulk around the margins of ponds, rarely showing themselves. This quail-sized waterbird often gives a high, squealing whinny ko-WEEee-ee-ee descending and slowing at the end.

The Sora is the most com-mon and widely distributed Rail in North America. It breeds in shallow wetlands with lots of emergent vegeta-tion. Rails may be seen run-ning rapidly across openings

in marshes, and they often swim short distances rather than fly. Rails’ bodies are later-ally compressed — hence the expression ‘thin as a rail’ — which allows them to escape into dense grass or reeds.

A similar bird, the Virginia Rail is also found breeding at Elizabeth Lake where the male gives a hard, mechanical ‘gik gik gik gidik gidik gidik gidik’ which could easily be heard above the rustling leaves and choppy water.

Naturalists were pleased to see “four of a kind in swal-lows” this week. Other evi-dence of the spring migration included the Eared Grebe, Phalaropes, Brown-headed Cowbird, Clay-colored and Chipping Sparrows and the ‘right-on-time’ Black Tern. Small yellow goslings of Cana-da Goose are rapidly develop-ing and the many varieties of ducklings will soon entertain visitors. Several hawks and ea-gles patrolled in search of the unwary.

Birding with others opened my eyes (and ears) to so many more great birding spots; you can’t help but improve your skills when surrounded by more accomplished birders than yourself. There is no shortage of opportunity at this time of year. The 17th Annual Wings Over The Rockies Festi-val included 73 events. Coin-ciding with International Mi-gratory Bird Day on the 2nd Saturday in May, the First An-

nual Creston Bird Festival suc-ceeded in attracting novice and advanced birders from Victoria to the Elk Valley.

Featuring guided hikes, walks and drives, Creston also showcased a blossom tour, hummingbird watch and wine tasting. ‘Little Big Day’, the RM Naturalists’ 12-hour birding competition, pitted five teams against each other in an at-tempt to record the greatest number of bird species. The winning team spotted 110 spe-cies contributing to an overall total of 140 species for the day! From May 16 to 20, the Mead-owlark Nature Festival offered over 90 nature tours in the Okanagan Similkameen.

Naturalists don’t like to use the word ‘cute’ when describ-ing birds. However, that was the term which came to mind when we discovered “day old” killdeer chicks near Elizabeth Lake Lodge. Even at close range they are tough to see because of camouflage and their habit of walking quickly and stopping suddenly. This is one more reason why it is cru-cial that dog owners control their pets with a short leash.

Join Rocky Mountain Natu-ralists at 7 a.m. on Tuesday mornings by the Elizabeth Lake Visitor Centre. Dress warmly and bring binoculars, a guide book and scope if you are able; we can provide a helpful Checklist of East Koo-tenay Birds. We wander along the trails slowly and quietly, so

if you are a bit late, you can easily find us. At 8 AM, we’ll be near the ‘concrete blind’. Expe-rienced birders will guide the group and help with identifica-tion. However, the more of us watching and listening will certainly bolster the species count. Expect to explore the various habitats for up to 3 hours; as you can see from the species list, it’s a wonderfully rich area. With the help of Kingbirds next week, maybe we can surpass 55 species.

RUTH ELLIOT MCPHEE

March 5, 1924 - May 26, 2013

Ruth was born in Grenfell, Saskatchewan on March 5, 1924 and passed away peacefully in Kamloops on May 26, 2013.

She is survived by her two sons, Barry (Karen) and Brian, two grandchildren Erin (Mat) and Spencer, her two great grandsons Tyler and Mason, her sister

Doreen and many nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Ruth was predeceased by husband Ron, infant grandson Kevin, and her faithful companion Cookie.

She had a full and memorable life having followed Ron’s retail career in Kamloops, Kitimat, Dawson Creek, Kelowna, Kimberley, Chase and then back to Kamloops. Along that road she met and made many friends with whom she kept in touch with until the time of her passing. Her working career included the insurance industry, banking and being a legal secretary. She was the backbone for her family, making sure Ron, Barry and Brian were well looked after. She made sure they never went without, even during the tough times. She was fiercely independent and having to deal with three strong willed males sometimes tested her patience, but she got through with her sense of humor and gentle spirit.

Mom was a wonderful and accomplished piano player who filled the home with music on family occasions and at any particular time when she was asked to play. She loved her involvement with choirs and would sing just about anything.

She was an incredibly talented seamstress and made her granddaughter many beautiful dresses for special occasions.

Her fresh baked goodies and bread were always ready for company and especially her grandson, who loved to eat her cucumber sandwiches.

She was very proud of her two great grandsons and would tell just about anyone who would listen about their accomplishments and achievements.

She will be sorely missed but her memory will be carried through those who knew and loved her.

A Celebration of her life will be held on Tuesday, June 4, 2013 at 2:00 p.m. in the Schoening Funeral Chapel, 513 Seymour Street with Pastor Don Maione officiating.

A very special thanks to the nurses and staff at the Ponderosa Lodge and to Daphne who made sure Ruth never went without her books, treats, smoothies, and burgers.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Ruth’s memory to the Royal Inland Hospital foundation, 311 Columbia Street, Kamloops, BC V2C 2T1.

Rest Peacefully Mom.
