Hikers head into the Nature Park for the Friendly Fungi hike last weekend.

S. robertSon photo

Hikers always enjoy the annual Larch Hike, which is coming up this weekend.

Struan robertSon photo

Bill Olmsted of Kimberley Nature Park Society was leader of a large group of participants on a ‘Friendly Fungus’ hike this weekend. Over fifty people turned out to tramp through Horse Barn Valley with Bill and to learn about fungi life, where they come from, and how to identify the different species. This is an annual event but weather and atmospheric conditions have made this years showing of mush-rooms and the various fungi, the most spectacular crop for a long time.

For the Bulletin

Kimberley Nature Park Society of-fers you a chance to get out on the trails to enjoy the western larch trees before they shed their needles. The annual Larch Hike will take place on Monday, October 14 and is suitable for all walkers. We expect the larch to be at their brilliant, golden best and interspersed with the green shades of the pines and firs. The various willows and shrubs add to the colour mix with their yellow and red fall hues. Join us for this hike to Dipper Lake before the wind strips the needles and leaves for another year.

There are two starting points. You

can choose to meet at the Nordic Cen-tre at 9 a.m. for a mainly-flat eight kilo-metre round-trip lasting about four hours. Or you can meet at the junction of St. Mary Road and Mathew Creek Road at 9:30 a.m. for a short car pool then a moderate four kilometre round-trip hike for approximately three hours. Both parties will meet at Dipper Lake where you have the op-tion of exchanging car keys with a friend and hiking out the other route. For information call Struan Robertson (427-5048). Always a popular end of season outing, the Larch Hike offers outdoor exercise with friends before the cooler weather sets in.

From Page 1“Evidence suggests the smoke alarms were not

operational and did not offer any early warning.”One of the things the Fire Department will be

looking for in the evaluation is locatio of smoke de-tectors.

“In BC, residential smoke alarms must be in-stalled in hallways or outside of bedrooms,” Prasad said. “Often this is not the case. As well smoke alarms typically have a service life of 10 years and should be replaced on or before the 10 year mark. The batteries should be replaced at least twice an-nually. Typically it’s easy to remember to do this when the time change occurs in the fall and spring. The Kimberley Fire Department recommends test-ing them on the first day of every month.”

The Kimberley Fire Department has 50 smoke detectors available that will be offered to seniors along with an evaluation.

If you are a senior, or know of a senior who would like to take part in this program, please contact the Kimberley Fire Department weekdays from 8 a.m. to 4:30 PM to request an inspection.

Smoke detectors

In the first report, prepared by psychiatrist Dr. Philip Adil-man in 1985, Hopley is de-scribed as “borderline retard-ed”. The report stated Hopley minimized his involvement in sexual assaults and experi-enced no significant remorse or insight into how to change his behaviour. Hopley is likely to reoffend without consistent treatment over a significant amount of time, the report

continued.In another report, also from

1985, psychologist Dr. William Koch describes Hopley as both a “dishevelled, sulky young man” and a danger to society with an absence of any remorse, deep resentment of authority figures and as being highly resistant to attempts to regulate his behaviour.

Hopley was in prison from 1985 to 1987 for the Hosmer

sexual assault. When he sought parole during that peri-od, Corrections Services pre-pared reports stating that he had “done very little to gain an understanding of his offences”.

Corrections Services staff said Hopley was in desperate need of treatment for his “sex-ual problem”, but he had not sought that treatment while in custody.

Hopley, who has an IQ of 65, did not register the seri-

ousness of his offenses, the reports stated.

On Monday, the court heard that by the age of 17, Hopley had already been in-volved in three sexual assaults in his foster home, and had a history of starting fires.

The sentencing hearing for Randall Hopley continues in Cranbrook Supreme Court to-morrow, when a psychiatric assessment performed last year will be presented.

The Kootenay Per-forming Arts Company in association with Ocean Entertainment Worldwide proudly presents a premiere concert production, The Way We Were...The Songs of Streisand, star-ring international re-cording artist Diane Pancel.

The concert is sched-uled for two nights, Fri-day, October 11 and Sat-urday, October 12 at Centre 64 in Kimberley.

Tickets are $35, $30 for seniors, $25 for stu-dents and can be charged by phone by calling 250-427-4080, or drop by the Kootenay Performing Arts box of-fice in the Platzl.

The show is pro-duced by Tony James, executive director of the Performing Arts Co., who has worked in the performing arts busi-ness for 30 years. Tony has appeared in, pro-duced, directed, writ-ten, created and man-aged more than 200 projects. In 2010 he was nominated Favorite P ro m o t e r / P u b l i c i s t (Monday Magazine), and has been the recipi-ent of more than 15 awards for performing, producing, service, citi-zenship and philanthro-py throughout his ca-reer., and most recently receiving a prestigious award from the National Geographic Society for

his work and support of global education and exploration.

Canadian born, L.A. based singer Diane Pan-cel is a seasoned artist, performer and song-writer, who was an ac-tive member of the Vic-toria performing arts community for many years. One of Diane’s many passions is the theatre where she has performed in such shows as Broadway in Burbank, HAIR, Love Matters; Cabaret at the Met, The Songs We Sing, and for two years was a featured singer in the Butchart Gardens’ Showtime.

Cranbrook urban deer are safe for the rest of the year, since the city won’t be doing a deer cull this fall. At the regu-lar meeting Monday night, council approved a recommendation from the Cranbrook Urban Deer Committee to do a deer count and skip the cull.

“Basically the way we’ve been determining how and where to do the cull has been based on complaints to the deer council,” coun. Bob Whetham, who is a member of the deer committee as well, said. “So they are focused on particular areas where we had issues with pub-lic safety concerns.”

However, this year they’ve found that com-plaints are down.

Whetham said the most recent counts is from earlier this year, so it’s hard to pinpoint the number of deer in the city.

Whetham explained how the deer count is done.

“It’s all conducted at the same time,” he said. “There is one driver and a spotter and they drive every road and lane way in the city.”

At the same time there are teams spotting deer all over the city and in this way the deer in direct view of the street are counted giving an estimate of the numbers in the city. Deer that are hidden in the bushes or behind fences are not counted.

“Really what it gives you is the minimum number of animals,” Whetham said. “It doesn’t necessarily re-flect the total number of deer that are out there.”

Whetham said that since the count is done the same every time, it is still fairly accurate.

“Overall, there have been a lot less deer in Baker Hill than in the last few years, but they are coming back,” said coun. Angus Davis, who lives in that area.

Whetham said the committee would con-duct another deer count and then perhaps bring

back another recom-mendation next year.

“But one thing that was very important was that it was time to get input on the deer man-agement program in general,” he said, add-ing that the committee will be putting out a sur-vey. “A lot of informa-tion has been made available since we start-ed on this and I think we need to know where the public sits in terms of options available to us and how we should pro-ceed.”

Mayor Wayne Stetski said the court case in-volving urban deer that Invermere is involved in is supposed to be in court this week in Van-couver.

“It’s been delayed a couple of times but they’re hoping that it will actually go through the courts starting this week,” he said.

As part of a referen-dum ballot on a recre-ation hall, Invermere will be conducting a survey of residents as to what they want to do around management of urban deer.

Stetski also met with the premier and minis-ters in Vancouver at the UBCM last month men-tioning urban deer management as a top priority. He said the re-sult was the province will be putting together a small committee to look at tools that may be available in the future for dealing with urban deer.

Last year there were 53 deer euthanized by conservation officers after being hit by vehi-cles and entangled in fences.

Whetham said the education programs combined with more residents fencing gar-dens and shrubbery has helped to keep the deer numbers slightly lower.

Stetski encouraged people who encounter aggressive deer to phone the CO.

“If they are really ag-gressive the conserva-tion officer might be able to deal with it as-suming you can identify clearly which one is the aggressor,” he said.

No deer cull this year in Cranbrook

CHRIS FERGUSONFor the Bulletin

In the last piece written under this title, the social sustainabil-ity of trails in Kimberley was

emphasized. A sustainable trail net-work needs human effort and some degree of investment. But as import-ant is the physical layout of the net-work and the actual design and building of the trails themselves. In this article, the ‘physics’ of trail sus-tainability will be discussed with the hope that people will understand why trails are being built the way they are and to respect that in their use of them. Entire books have been writ-ten about this, so this will necessarily only cover the basics.

A sustainable trail is one that is built in such a fashion so that natural erosive forces (primarily moving water) and forces generated on the trail by expected user groups can be withstood in the long term, with min-imal ongoing maintenance. There is a complex matrix of factors which determine how able a trail is to with-stand these forces, especially from the latter category. Decades of expe-rience in parks and on government lands around the world, as well as academic research, have led to the most contemporary notions of how to design sustainable trails.

Where to begin? Let’s start with the ground around Kimberley, a huge factor that we can do nothing to change and must work with as best we can. Topographically, Kimber-ley’s many rolling hills, ridges, bench-es and Northstar Mountain make for a great trails area. Geologically, con-sidering what our ground is made up of, we are far less fortunate. The un-derlying bedrock in this area is, broadly speaking, smooth (small grains/crystals) and almost never ex-posed as solid bedrock. The retreat of the glaciers thousands of years ago has left a thick coat of water rounded and transported debris in various mixtures almost everywhere below the base level of the Nordic Centre.

Plenty of sands, fine silts and an absence of much loamy soil makes for poor building materials for trails, and leaves trail surfaces especially prone to erosion. Where the cobble sizes are large or they are in dense concentrations, the building is slow and more difficult. Rounded cobbles are very poor for doing rock work that is sometimes needed to shore up trail edges. Above this debris elevation, there is typically a very thin amount of mineral soil over and around very shattered rock. This too is difficult to work with and is typified by the sides of the trail you see on the way up the second and third hills of Magic Line. Finally, the relatively porous ground around here is a mixed blessing: some trails drain well while other areas have nearly year-round springs which saturate certain areas through which old roads and trails cross.

Given the realities in/on the ground, the next most critical ele-ment in sustainable design is the an-gles used for the trail path. The steeper a trail, the faster water can flow down it. The longer water can

stay on a trail, the faster it will travel. The faster water moves, the more material from the trail surface it can transport. We see this every spring on a large scale with the muddying of Mark Creek and the crashing of boul-ders and cobbles under the massive forces involved. Steeper trails also mean that walkers and riders are ex-erting more force on the trail and are more likely to cause erosion.

Without going into a lot more de-tail, a ball park figure being used in local design is a goal of an average of an 8 per cent grade. That is, for every 100 meters of trail built, the trail should only climb an average of 8 meters vertical. More often, the op-posite math is used: if a trail is to go to the top of a 50 meters high rise above your current location, a minimum of 625 meters of trail should be built. Short sections can be steeper. In es-pecially sandy locations, even lower grades are being used. This simple math quickly demonstrates how un-sustainable (to natural forces alone) many older trails are. For those that insist on having steeper trail seg-ments, the only feasible sustainable means is using a technique called rock armouring/paving and this is exceptionally labour intensive and requires rock to be brought in to most locations. The fine grained rock men-tioned earlier also tends to be very slick when wet.

Not letting water ‘attack’ a trail is the reason you see new ones being lower angled and having grade rever-sals; that is, occasional changes in the grade from up to down. These little breaks in climb angle allow water to spill off the trail rather than having long runs to possibly build up speed on. Equally critical is the “bench cut” design. The trail, when viewed along its length, should look like a relaxed bench seat. The back of the seat (on the up slope side of the trail) needs to be angled back to pre-vent the bank caving in on the trail. The trail surface itself needs to be slightly angled down towards the down slope side of the hill being tra-versed so that water can spill off the trail rather than run down its length. The front edge of the seat needs to be smooth, firm and not allowed to build up with material so that the drainage of the trail onto the low side can continue over time.

Contrary to a lot of popular think-ing, trails should not be built on flat surfaces but instead should always traverse along the side of a slope so that the above water-shedding fea-tures can be built in. Flat trail beds encourage the pooling of water which almost always leads to a less pleasant trail experience and people walking around the edges of the trail, widen-ing them over time. Older trail build-ing techniques many will be familiar with, such as ditching, water bars and sharp switchbacks are all now con-sidered inappropriate for well built, multi-user single track trails.

The one area where a trail should ideally be flat (or close to it) is at turns that would have previously been built as a sharp switchback of between 120 and 180 degrees. The extensive rock work, using over a ton of quarried slate hand carried from Elbow Road to the work site, on the lower end of

Trail sustainability for KimberleyEdge Trail in the Nature Park is a prime example of creating a flatter turn on the side of an otherwise fairly steep slope. This turn is holding up very well after over three years of use.

Aesthetics of trails must be combined with the above factors. Hoodoo View Trail had a start point and an end point at the start of plan-ning. Using elevation differences, a certain amount of trail had to be built. You try to put in nice features, such as the view point and an old, wedged tree stump from historical logging times. But in finding a balance between one large out and back, and a series of many tight turns, you try to have the trail flow in a pleasant way, with a minimum of turns, while also going through areas of relatively easier building. Walkers could be tempted to cut straight lines be-tween these rolling curves, but are asked to pre-serve the values for the long-term by staying on the trail.

It is hoped these two Bulletin pieces will help inform readers about the many variables, both social and physical, which impact our trails and our enjoyment of them. We have an awesome network of trails close to town and dedicated neigh-bours doing their best to maintain and improve them. Rather than pointing the finger at other user groups, or dismissing or disre-specting the work being done, we need to work together to help en-sure that this amazing resource is there for our grandchildren.

“Pressure is what you feel when you don’t know what the heck you’re doing.”

Peyton Manning

“Oh, those things!” said a cheerfully naïve friend when I told him what I was about to tackle that afternoon. “Coupla hours should do it.” But then, unlike me, he’s one of those who be-lieve what advertisers claim about their prod-ucts.

My old friend Hector asked me if I would be willing to spare a few min-utes and possibly help him put up one of those auto-mobile tent things that are so popular these days. I’d told Hector that I’d be more than willing to help, providing we didn’t try the erection if there were a wind blow-ing. I have odd memories of my friend, Sonny, trying to erect a small tent in the wind on the shores of Lake Kookanusa.

Sonny’s husband, Alan, was one of those men who pretend to be real klutzes at anything practical like putting up a tent. I always believed that Alan was a great actor; he avoided gardening, repair work about the house, or any other onerous task with his klutz routine.

Anyway, during the raising of the tent, a wind picked up the fabric of the tent and Sonny almost ended up doing a Mary Pop-pins over the lake. I enjoyed the scene but finally sprang to the lady’s assistance.

However, I am older now and had had no intention of fighting a giant automobile garage and appearing more ridiculous than usual.

DAY ONE. When I arrived at Hector’s place, he had already got the frame parts laid out on the grass in some sort of order. I soon put a stop to that nonsense.

One of the many prob-lems with these kits — as I had found out over many weary Christmas eves — is that they include hundreds of bolts and nuts and they are invariably of different sizes, and thus ensues an I.Q. test: which goes where?

The nuts seemed to be all of the same thread. As Hector and I mumbled and drooled, his wife came out to supervise, looked at the confusion and went into her home muttering about the cold weather.

Hector and I set to work and I quoted Walt Disney, saying, “It’s kinda fun doing the impossible, right?”

Hector has an excellent wry grin for such occasions.

We did manage that first day to get the frame together despite the debates over male and female ends of the multitudi-nous parts, but we must have sounded like an old wooden farm cart passing by with all of the bending stretching we forced our ancient bodies to do. The erection didn’t look as if it would survive the night.

DAY TWO. The next afternoon I was

surprised to see the garage still standing, all-be-it, a little like a small leaning tower of Pisa but Hector had deftly tied cross braces of bright coloured nylon rope to support things. We then set to work on the end pieces, both of which seemed to have roll-up doorways. This caused some de-bate because Hector and I didn’t have un-derstandings, just interesting confusion. Hector made the first of his two big mis-takes that afternoon. He listened to me and followed my advice and we were forced to take things apart then replace them in what was the approved manner.

DAY THREE. The next and final after-noon of our ordeal was spent getting the giant cover on the structure without either of us losing his temper. Like ancient mari-ners, we knotted ropes to two corners of the cover, tossed the ends over the frame then shuffled lamely round the other side and hauled with all our feeble might. Even-tually, as the rain started, the cover came over without a fight.

The last task was the business of tying the whole thing down and we quickly real-ized how lucky we had been not having had to lace our wives into corsets the way our grandfathers must have done.

Hector and I are still friends but have no ambition to go into the garage business together.

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

It’s no surprise that the Kootenay Ice an-nounced that Tanner Faith is out indefinitely with an upper-body in-jury following Sunday’s tilt against the Thun-derbirds.

Faith went hard into the end boards and needed some help from trainer Cory Cameron to get off the ice.

The team is also without the services of Landon Peel, who is day to day with a lower body injury. Peel missed two games over the weekend against the Hitmen and the Thunderbirds.

That leaves five de-fencemen going into Wednesday against the Hurricanes in Leth-bridge.

However, Jeff Hubic,

a defenceman in his rookie year who even-tually moved up to for-ward, will revert back to his old position to give the D-corps some relief.

The team will be able to field six rear-guards with Hubic’s versatility against Leth-bridge, however, Peel should back by the weekend, according to Ice head coach Ryan McGill.

With three games in as many nights, Sun-day’s affair with the Thunderbirds was as much a mental test as it was a physical one, said McGill.

“Three games in three nights—the third night is a mental test and we’re a young team,” McGill said. “At times in the game on Sunday, I thought we did a good job and at

other times, I thought we didn’t do enough to make sure that we didn’t give up any easy opportunities.”

WIth a roster infused with youth, every game—win or lose—is a learning situation, McGill added.

“We only have one three-and-three left, which is later on this month, which is a good sign for us,” said McGill, “but at the same time, you have to learn from those things and really

hold yourself account-able, mentally, that you’re going to do all the little things correct-ly that are going to give you success if you don’t really have your legs underneath you.”

Levi Cable, who was held pointless over the weekend, agreed, not-ing that it can be chal-lenging to get ready for multiple teams on a weekend stretch.

“It was new for the rookies and it’s physi-cally tough and mental-ly, just getting prepared for all different teams,” Cable said.

The Ice have already faced the ‘Canes once this season, which ended with a shootout victory after Lethbridge was able to claw their way back into it in the third period.

Kootenay also gave

up a lead on the road in Calgary last Friday, and can’t happen in order to be successful, said McGill.

“We obviously have to learn how to protect leads,” McGill said, “es-pecially on the road, getting a 2-0 lead on the road, it doesn’t matter where you are, you still have to do things the right way to keep that lead and we’re still learning that.”

In six games so far in the new season, the Hurricanes only have one win, and they’ll be hungry in front of a home crowd.

Following Wednes-day’s game, the Ice head up to Medicine Hat to challenge the Ti-gers on Saturday, be-fore hosting the Prince Albert Raiders on Sun-day.

Women’s Avs wrap up preseason in Red DeerTRE VOR CR AWLEY

Sports Editor

The women’s Avalanche volleyball squad have finished their preseason following a tournament in Red Deer, where they went winless in five matches.

The Avs were fleshing out their roster and playing the rookies for the whole event to give everyone as much experi-ence as possible in advance of the regular Pacwest season, which begins next week with a road trip to Vancouver Island.

“It was more getting every-one out there and experienc-ing the game,” said Kelsey Thompson, who plays left side. “It’s such a different game from high school Grade 12 to col-lege. The pace is extremely fast.”

From here on in, it’s little things the team wants to tweak as they prepare for their first matches against Camosun College and Vancouver Island University.

Thompson, a third-year athlete, said the the team is

looking forward to getting into league games.

“We’re showing so much potential already, which is re-ally good,” Thompson said.

The Avs faced a few of the same teams they played a few weeks ago at the Rumble in the Rockies tournament hosted by the College of the Rockies, but other squads were unfamiliar.

Thompson singled out the 25-17, 23-25, 15-10 loss to Kings University College as one of the tougher matches.

“Their middles were in-

sane,” Thompson said. “They were a fast offence and they couldn’t do anything wrong, which was hard to play against.”

However, there was a silver lining to their weekend with a strong performance in their opening match against Medi-cine Hat, a loss at 29-27, 25-18.

“Even though we lost, it was a good game,” Thompson said. “There were a few points that just didn’t go our way, it was unfortunate, but we seemed to click in that game.

Jets QB Sanchez undergoes season-ending surgery

NEW YORK - Quarterback Mark Sanchez has undergone season-ending surgery on his injured right shoulder, possibly also signalling the end of his New York Jets career.

The surgery on the torn labrum was performed by Dr. James Andrews on Tuesday, the team an-nounced on Twitter and its official site. Sanchez, who hasn’t played since being injured in the third preseason game, says in a statement that he was advised by Andrews and other doctors to have sur-gery.

Sanchez says he’s “disappointed” by not being able to play this season, but expects a full recovery. A hefty contract, however, could make him a salary cap casualty in the off-season.

Sanchez was in a tight competition with rookie Geno Smith for the starting job this summer before being hurt against the Giants.

NFL owners narrow list of hosts for 2018 SuperbowlWASHINGTON - New Orleans and Indianapolis,

the sites of the past two Super Bowls, and Minneap-olis are the three finalists to host the NFL champion-ship game in 2018.

Those three cities have been selected from a pool of six at the owners’ meetings Tuesday.

Colts owner Jim Irsay says: “It proves that India-napolis is really a unique city, being a medium-sized market in a colder market, without 80 degrees and beaches.”

Owners say that the subject of changing the Washington Redskins’ nickname was not discussed in any formal way during Tuesday’s sessions.

Among the decisions made: There will be three games played at London’s Wembley Stadium next season. The Falcons, Jaguars and Raiders will be the “home” teams. Dates and opponents will be an-nounced later.

EDMONTON - Edmonton Eskimos quarterback Mike Reilly will start against the Saskatchewan Roughriders this weekend, and will be the No. 1 signal caller for the rest of the season.

Head coach Kavis Reed says Reilly is the fran-chise quarterback and needs to be developed, add-ing that the Eskimos still have a slim chance of making the CFL playoffs.

Reed was criticized after last Saturday’s loss to the Montreal Alouettes for curtailing Reilly’s trade-mark scrambling ability and having him throw quickly out of concern for the quarterback’s health.

Australia’s oldest Olympian Basil Dickinson dies

SYDNEY, Australia - Australia’s oldest Olympian Basil Dickinson, who competed in the triple jump at the 1936 Berlin Games, has died. He was 98.

The Australian Olympic Committee on Wednes-day said Dickinson died at his home in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, on Monday.

The AOC said Dickinson was one of 33 Austra-lians who competed at Berlin and took 41 days to reach Europe by ship. The Australians had a live kangaroo mascot called “Aussie” on board with them.

AOC president John Coates said Dickinson will be remembered “for the standards he set for the Olympians who followed over the next 70 years. He was a credit to his sport and the country in general.”

Dodgers rest up before NL championshipBeth harris

Associated Press

LOS ANGELES - The Los Angeles Dodgers earned themselves a three-day break after ousting Atlanta to win the National League di-vision series, and they can use the time off to sort out some issues.

The team took Tues-day off to rest after clos-ing out the Braves in four games with a dra-matic 4-3 victory on Monday night. As the first club to advance from the division series, the Dodgers get the most time to reset their rotation, make bullpen decisions and heal nag-ging injuries to Hanley Ramirez and Andre Ethier.

They’ll be awaiting their opponent in the NL championship se-ries, the winner of Wednesday night’s de-

cisive Game 5 between Pittsburgh and St. Louis. Los Angeles would open at home against Pitts-burgh or start at St. Louis.

The Dodgers were 4-2 against the Pirates this season and 4-3 against the Cardinals.

“All of my teammates are ready for whatever comes our way,” rookie Yasiel Puig said through a translator. “We’re very prepared for this.”

Los Angeles is four wins from its first World Series appearance since 1988, when the Dodgers won their sixth title and fifth since leaving Brooklyn after the 1957 season.

“In spring training, our goal wasn’t to get to the next round,” centre fielder Skip Schumaker said. “It was to win the World Series, so it’s a nice first step in the

right direction.”Los Angeles will

open with Zack Grein-ke, who will be pitching on six days’ rest follow-ing a 4-3 loss to Atlanta in Game 2. Clayton Ker-shaw, who started on three days’ rest Monday for the first time in his major league career, will get regular rest before starting Game 2 against the Pirates or Cardinals.

Kershaw is savoring his first playoffs appear-ances since 2009.

“The last three years of not getting to go real-ly taught me to embrace this opportunity. You never know when this is going to happen again,” he said. “It’s a one-month sprint, and I’m looking forward to the next couple games.”

Rookie Hyun-Jin Ryu would be the likely starter in Game 3, al-though his poor perfor-

mance against the Braves raised questions about his ability to han-dle playoff pressure. He allowed four runs in three innings, but the Dodgers were lucky Julio Teheran was even worse.

The three-day break gives the Dodgers ample time to sort out their bullpen, where Paco Rodriguez strug-gled in Game 3 against the Braves.

“It doesn’t kick Paco out of any plans,” man-ager Don Mattingly said. “Paco’s been through a little stretch. Doesn’t mean we lose confidence in him.”

Los Angeles also could learn whether Ethier’s left ankle has healed sufficiently to allow him to play the field. He was limited to pinch hitting against the Braves.

The Canadian hockey team will show off their new threads in February during the 2014 Sochi Winter Olympic Games

stephen WhynoCanadian Press

TORONTO - More than a month after the first leak, Hock-ey Canada has officially unveiled its hockey jerseys for the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi.

Amid club music and laser lights, youth players skated onto the ice at the Mattamy Athletic Centre sporting the red, white and alternate black uniforms that the men’s, women’s and sledge hockey teams will wear at the Olympic and Paralympic Games.

The youngsters did laps around the ice and shot some pucks on net as flashbulbs went off around them. The event was another marker on the road to Sochi.

“Seeing the jersey is a key

stepping point for all three teams,” Hockey Canada presi-dent and CEO Bob Nicholson said.

Hockey Canada invited teen-age players from the Toronto area to model the jerseys. They were told they’d be doing some promotional things but didn’t learn until in the locker-room just before the event that they’d be part of the unveiling.

Hockey Hall of Famer and former Canadian Olympian Joe Nieuwendyk delivered the news.

“Their mouths dropped, a lit-tle awestruck,” Nieuwendyk said. “They didn’t realize what they were here for. When they saw the jersey for the first time, it hit them like it hits any NHL guy that’s going to don that jersey.”

For most fans, this wasn’t the

first look at the jerseys. A photo of Chicago Blackhawks forward Jonathan Toews wearing the red uniform at the NHL’s player media tour surfaced in early September, and then all three could be seen in a photo later in the month.

That means anyone critical of the look got a head start. Some said it looked like Petro-Cana-da’s logo, while others wanted to go back to the jerseys used when Canada won gold in Vancouver in 2010.

“People talking about how they feel about a jersey that’s close to their heart and rep-resents their country is a great thing,” Nike creative director Ken Black said.

Canada will be the only team in Sochi with a third jersey.

Martinez’s disputed HR helps Tigers rally past A’s 8-6

noah tristerAssociated Press

DETROIT - Max Scherzer escaped a major jam in relief and the Detroit Tigers - helped by two fans who reached out to try to reel in Victor Martinez’s dis-puted home run - rallied past the Oakland Athlet-ics 8-6 on Tuesday to force a decisive fifth game in their AL divi-sion series.

Playing catch-up most of the way, the Ti-gers tied it first with Jhonny Peralta’s three-run homer in the fifth inning and then on Martinez’s solo shot in the seventh. A couple of fans attempted to catch Martinez’s drive, and at least one of them bob-bled the ball as he reached over the railing above the wall - pre-venting right fielder Josh Reddick from having

any chance at a leaping grab.

Reddick and centre fielder Coco Crisp im-mediately protested, pointing up at the stands in the hope of a fan-in-terference call. But um-pires upheld the home run after a replay review.

Scherzer, making his first relief appearance since the 2011 post-sea-son, had already given up a run in the seventh. With the Tigers ahead 5-4, he allowed a walk and a double to start the eighth, but after an in-tentional walk to load the bases, manager Jim Leyland left his 21-game winner on the mound.

Scherzer struck out Reddick and Stephen Vogt before getting pinch-hitter Alberto Callaspo to line out to centre.

Detroit, which had no hits through the first

four innings, added three runs in the eighth on a wild pitch and a two-run double by Omar Infante that made it 8-4.

Yoenis Cespedes hit a two-run single in the ninth, bringing the po-tential tying run to the plate, but Joaquin Beno-it struck out Seth Smith to end it.

The Tigers can now send Justin Verlander to the mound for Game 5 on Thursday night in Oakland. Verlander shut out the A’s in Oakland in the decisive fifth game of the division series last year.

Oakland hasn’t an-nounced a starter for Game 5. It is Bartolo Co-lon’s turn in the rota-tion, but rookie Sonny Gray could also come back on normal rest after a brilliant perfor-mance in Game 2.

Red Sox beat Rays 3-1 in game 4 to reach aL championship series

Fred GoodallAssociated Press

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. - Shane Victorino’s infield single snapped a seventh-inning tie and journeyman Craig Breslow gave Boston a huge boost out of the bullpen, sending the Red Sox into the AL championship series with a 3-1 victory over

the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday night.

Koji Uehara got the final four outs - one night after giving up a game-winning homer - and the Red Sox re-bounded to win the best-of-five playoff 3-1.

Back in the ALCS for the first time in five years, they’ll open at home Saturday against

the Athletics or Tigers. Oakland hosts Detroit in a decisive Game 5 on Thursday.

Both managers mixed and matched all night in a tense game that felt more like a chess match. Desper-ately trying to avoid elimination, Rays skip-per Joe Maddon used nine pitchers.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Make it a point to draw from nontraditional sources when brainstorming with others or when launching a new project. You will be amazed by the dif-ference it makes and by what occurs when you tap into your imagination. Tonight: Go along with someone’s offbeat plans. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Deal with others on an individ-ual level, even if you are uncom-fortable with the end results. Honor a change from within, and recognize when you need to back off and allow others to have more say. You know what is workable for you. Tonight: Share news with a favorite person. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll want to move on and head in a new direction, but you could be slammed by incoming calls, questions and people showing up at your door. Handle priori-ties first. Relax, and don’t push so hard to follow through on what you want. Tonight: Where the action is.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might wonder what it’s best to do under the present circum-stances. You could feel as if a key person has been deceptive or unstable because of his or her switching directions out of the blue. Keep your feelings to yourself. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be unusually ener-gized and delighted by a sug-gestion that triggers your mind to come up with even more ideas. Someone you consider to be a trustworthy expert might be acting a bit flaky. Say little and observe more in the next few months. Tonight: Time for midweek fun. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others often expect a lot from you, regardless of whether you are willing to give them what they want. You will step up to the plate because you know you can make a difference. Loved ones will support you in a ven-ture. Tonight: Don’t worry so much about your finances. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

Realize what is happening between you and a relative or neighbor, as a new sense of compatibility seems to emerge. You will laugh, go with the mo-ment and finally seem to work well together. Tonight: Get out and about, and take an overdue break from the workweek. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Being concerned about your funds makes sense, especially since you have little control over a work situation. Be smart, and avoid taking any unnecessary risks; your instincts will guide you. Listen to them, and you will be just fine. Tonight: Fun does not need to break the bank. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A surprise from a child or new friend will encourage you to put on your thinking cap in order to make the right decisions. Trust your sixth sense, and you will know which direction to head in. Open up and share more of your feelings. Tonight: Whatever knocks your socks off. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Remain sensitive to what is taking place in the moment, and

you will understand what needs to happen. In order to accom-plish what you want, prioritize your to-do list. It might be best to ignore other seemingly trivial matters. Tonight: Get some extra zzz’s AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might want to take off ASAP. If you can, make arrangements to do that -- you need a break! Ask a friend or loved one to join you. You are likely to find that getting away from your daily routine will restore your energy. Tonight: Only where you want to be. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could be pushing yourself too hard. Understand what needs to happen with a boss or someone you look up to, but know that it might be nearly impossible to change his or her mind. Take your time with a sit-uation, rather than jump right into it. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. BORN TODAY Musician John Lennon (1940), actor Steve Burns (1973), former U.S. Sen. Trent Lott (1941)

Dear Annie: Recently, I was introduced to an older gentleman. He has never been mar-ried, but he did have a son through artificial insemination. His son passed away, and he talks all the time about how special he was. He has a very strong and commanding per-sonality to the point of sometimes being a bit of a bully. It seems like he is always demand-ing that things be done his way or else. What bothers me most is that he has a low opin-ion of women. He’s often said that women should do what they are told and stay home and take care of the house and family. And worse, he’s even said how “dirty” women are in regard to their menstrual cycles, and that is why he has never talked about sex. He does seem like a good person -- he’s very intelligent and many people like him. He says he loves me, but he says that to ev-eryone. I’m not sure about his intentions and wonder whether I should pursue this relationship or not. -- California Gal Dear California: Run, don’t walk, from this relationship. This man is not partner mate-rial. He may seem intelligent and nice, but he will expect you to be at his beck and call, and he will have little respect for you. And intimacy? Forget it. The most you can expect is a bossy kind of one-sided friendship, and we don’t need a crystal ball to know that he won’t make you happy. Sorry. Dear Annie: When my neighbors take their annual two-week vacation, I water their ex-tensive flowers every day and take in their mail. I’ve been doing this for 10 years, and all I ever received was a thank-you and a few daylily transplants. Recently, I had a severe bout with divertic-ulitis and was in a lot of pain. I could hardly pick up my own mail, much less theirs. This didn’t make the wife happy. I also need sur-gery and asked whether she would take my terrier, and she refused. She’s taken care of other people’s dogs, so I don’t understand this. I know she will want me to water all of her plants next year, but I don’t think I will, considering she won’t help me in my time of need. I feel used. My dog is 16 years old and healthy, but I worry he won’t survive in a kennel for five days. My handyman is will-ing to take care of my dog, but he wants $90 per day to come and let him out three times a day. What would you do? -- Hurt and Wor-ried Dear Hurt: We assume your dog is as easy to care for as you claim. If so, your handyman is overcharging you. Most dog-sitters charge between $15 and $30 per day. If someone has to come multiple times, they may charge $15 per visit, but it still doesn’t add up to $90 a day. Make sure he didn’t mean $90 for all five days, which would be more than reason-able. You can find reliable pet-sitters online or get a referral from your veterinarian’s of-fice. And if you are not able or willing to take care of your neighbors’ mail and flowers, so be it. It is a kindness, not an obligation. Dear Annie: This is for “Leave Us Alone,” who is getting pressure from their families about having children. My wife and I were married at 26 and had our children when we were in our 30s. We spent the first six years of our marriage es-tablishing our careers, beginning our sav-ings, buying our home and taking some great vacations that involved lots of camping and low-cost motels. Reflecting back, I think those years provid-ed a solid foundation for our now 38-year marriage by giving us the experience of working together as a team, providing mu-tual support to each other as we tackled the challenges of building our careers and shar-ing our lives. -- Still Going Strong Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

The weekend of September 20-22, 2013, saw Air Cadets from 552 Key City Cranbrook, 266 Kimberley and 279 Elk Valley Squadrons on a special field trip to three of Alberta’s Aviation Mu-seums.

The first stop was the Bomber Museum of Canada in Nanton, where they were able to take part in “A 54 Year Odyssey.” The Lan-caster Bomber located there was running all four engines for the first time since the Lancaster ar-rived in Nanton.

Cadets participated in various sporting activities, museum tours

and they stayed overnight in the museum.

The next morning they were honoured at Celebratory Pro-gram Ceremonies by Dan Fox, Lancaster Society; the Mayor of Nanton; and the Honourable Anne C. Cools (Senator Toron-to-Centre-York).

Following the ceremonies, they paraded in front of the Lan-caster Bomber before marching on to the bus en route to the Aero Space Museum of Calgary.

Cadets were given permission to sit in the cockpits of several planes, including an F-86A Sabre and an Avro652 Anson MK ll.

On Sunday after staying over-night at the Mewata Armoury, the cadets went to the Military Museum of Calgary, where they explored three main areas within — Defending a Nation: Canada and the Korean Gallery; Naval Museum of Calgary; and Air Force Museum of Alberta.

With Remembrance Day coming up, the timing was per-fect for reminding the Cadets how fortunate we Canadians are for the freedoms that we enjoy, hard-won by our parents, grand-parents and great-grandparents.

A big thank you to DND for allowing the trip of a lifetime.

Tom FleTcherBlack Press

The B.C. Treaty Com-mission issued its 21st annual report Tuesday, with a plea for federal and provincial govern-ments not to abandon

province-wide progress in a rush for resource de-velopment in the north.

While noting progress on several new treaties, chief commissioner So-phie Pierre said she is frustrated that the federal

government has dragged its feet with studies, while the B.C. government has shifted focus to interim resource agreements as it pushes mining and gas development develop-ment in the north. Pierre

warned that the rest of the province is being ig-nored, while First Na-tions have piled up debt for treaty talks that show little progress.

“There’s no need for more studies,” said

Pierre, who is former Chief of the St. Mary’s Band of the Ktunaxa First Nation. “Let’s just get it done.”

Asked if the indepen-dent treaty commission has outlived its useful-

ness, commissioner Dave Haggard was more blunt. Abandoning trea-ties means going back to court, and the Supreme Court of Canada has made it clear that Cana-da and B.C. must negoti-

ate settlements for ab-original rights and title, he said.

He said he is dis-mayed by the rush for oil and gas development across the north.

“Go through Terrace and Prince Rupert and Smithers and see what the oil companies are doing up there today,” Haggard said. “It’s almost laughable when you see what they’re trying to do, the first one through the door so they can buy off another Indian.

“That’s not how it’s going to happen with First Nations in that part of the world. They’re going to sit down at the table and have a fair and just set of negotiations for occupying and use of the land and the resourc-es that are there.”

Pierre said she sup-ports resource sharing agreements for mines and forests, but they still leave communities under the control of the Indian Act. She singled out the long federal delay in deciding how salmon resources should be shared.

The Yale First Nation in the Fraser Canyon had its treaty approved by the House of Commons this spring, joining the Tsaw-wassen First Nation in the Lower Mainland and the Maa-Nulth First Na-tions on Vancouver Is-land with full self-gov-ernment. The Tla’amin First Nation near Powell River has had its treaty ratified provincially.

Community votes on final agreements are near for In-SHUCK-ch com-munities at Harrison Lake, K’omoks on Van-couver Island, and the Tsimshian communities of Kitselas and Kitsum-kalum on the North Coast.

Agreements in princi-ple are nearing comple-tion for Ditidaht and Pacheedaht First Nations near Port Renfrew, the Homalco on Bute Inlet, and the Katzie in the Lower Mainland.

Also making progress on final agreements for land and cash are the Namgis Nation on north-ern Vancouver Island, Nazko First Nation near Quesnel, Northern Shuswap Tribal Council around Williams Lake, Te’Mexw Treaty Associa-tion on southern Van-couver Island and the Tla-o-qui-aht First Na-tions near Tofino.

The full report and a webcast of Pierre’s pre-sentation are available at www.bctreaty.net.
