C AROLYN GR ANTeditor@dailybulletin.ca

Kimberley longboarder Noah Wesche met with Coun. Darryl Oakley and RCMP member Scott Milliken last week to discuss issues with longboarding in Kimberley.

Council has received complaints about

longboarders on City streets and it has been identified as a priority in policing initiatives.

In Part I, the Bulletin reported that the discussion was around safety and a negative perception of longboarders. But Wesche says longboarding is also a sport, which he and many other riders take very seriously.

While many Kimberley longboarders use their boards primarily as transportation, it is also a sport. One only need look at the high-ly successful Sullivan Challenge, held every

JulyFest weekend, to see that it is a sport that attracts a great deal of interest.

“It’s a really great group of people who travel to the races,” Wesche said. “Passive, easy going people. You never see a fight at the races.”

It is the sporting aspect of it that sees rid-ers training on Kimberley’s steeper hills — and also the challenge of a more difficult ride.

Wesche says the Rails to Trails is great for

commuting. If he goes to Marysville, he uses the trail rather than the highway. But there are also times when training requires more, as does the love of the sport.

“The Rails to Trails is great for commut-ing but I love cranking through pot holes and gravel,” Wesche said. “It keeps it real. Gerry Sorensen Way is a minefield. I love it. If I want to do the sport I’ll be on the road.”

A home in the 2400 block of 3rd Street South was invaded at around 2 a.m. on Mon-day, August 19.

“Weapons were brandished – a knife and a baseball bat – but no one was injured in the incident,” said Cpl. Chris Newel.

“The suspects were known to the victim and police quickly determined the victim was targeted.”

Police had arrested four young offenders by 4 a.m. Monday morning.

All four are currently in custody and will appear in court Monday. Two are charged with possession of a weapon, one with fail to comply with conditions, and all four with break and enter.

On Monday, August 19 David Walls assumed his new role as College of the Rockies’ seventh president.

Walls has more than 30 years’ experience in the Canadian post-sec-ondary system.

Most recently he served as provost and vice-president academ-ic at the Saskatchewan Institute of Applied Sci-ence and Technology (SIAST) where he also held the positions of as-sociate vice-president academic and student affairs, and dean of in-dustrial training.

Prior to joining SIAST, Walls held progressively senior positions at the Southern Alberta Insti-tute of Technology (SAIT) including dean of energy and natural re-sources, and dean of me-chanical trades and technologies.

Walls has served as chair and a member of the Board of the Saska-toon Trades and Skills Centre, and as a mem-ber of the Boards of the Saskatchewan Academ-ic Health Sciences Net-

work and the Interna-tional Mining Innova-tion Institute.

He holds a Master of Science, Welding Tech-nology and Manage-ment from Aston Uni-versity in Birmingham, England and a Bachelor of Technology, Metal-lurgy from Brunel Uni-versity in Uxbridge.

“In David Walls we have a president with the experience, leader-ship qualities and vision to build upon College of the Rockies’ achieve-ments and take the in-novative spirit of the college to greater heights,” said Orest Fed-erko, chair of College of the Rockies’ Board of Governors.

“He has a passion for post-secondary educa-tion and student suc-cess, and the ability to lead a consultative pro-cess in setting a strategic course for College of the Rockies’ future.”

“He is a dedicated and successful leader who is experienced in strategic management and institutional growth, has led the de-velopment of mar-

ket-driven education and training, is skilled in building partnerships and successful teams, has an entrepreneurial flair, and leads with a consultative style,” said Federko.

“The board wel-comes David and his family to Cranbrook and looks forward to work-ing with him to continue

to provide the citizens of our region and beyond with quality post-sec-ondary education op-portunities.”

“My goal over the next few months is to learn as much as I can about College of the Rockies and the com-munities we serve and their training needs by meeting and speaking

with college staff, facul-ty, administrators, our Board of Governors, and our community and in-dustry partners,” said Walls.

“Under the leader-ship of retiring presi-dent Nick Rubidge, Col-lege of the Rockies has earned a solid reputa-tion for innovation and growth,” continued Walls.

“I’m excited to have the opportunity and privilege to lead this great institution into a future I have no doubt will be filled with amaz-ing opportunities and interesting challenges.”

“My family and I have just taken posses-sion of our new home in Cranbrook and we’re looking forward to living and working in the beautiful Kootenay re-gion of British Colum-bia.”

Walls succeeds Nick Rubidge who is retiring after 12 years as College of the Rockies President and CEO and 40 years in B.C.’s post-secondary education sector.

La Cafamore has been striving to bring high quality classical music to the ears of Kootenay listeners since 2008. On October 5, 7:30 p.m. they will bring two famous piano trios to Cran-brook classical music lovers. Haydn’s “Gypsy” trio is recognizable because of its lively last movement, which uses themes based on Hungarian gypsy music. Beethoven’s “Archduke” trio is considered the pinnacle of the piano trio repertoire with its expansive themes and orchestral-like instru-mentation.

The concert will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church in Cranbrook on October 5 at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 for adults and $12 for seniors. Chil-dren under 12 are free.

La Cafamore has been touring the Kootenays since 2008. In this next se-ries of concerts, they will present piano trio repertoire for the first time. The group decided to explore piano trio repertoire, with Carolyn Cameron switching roles of violinist to pianist.

“I am very excited and somewhat nervous, because I haven’t done much chamber music as a pianist… I’m hoping that my violin experience translates across instruments.”

Since most piano trio arrange-

ments are for violin, viola and cello, violist Alexis More will take on the cello part with her viola. “Most cello parts transpose fairly easily to viola,” she said, impishly adding “the piano drowns me out anyway.”

The group will play two of the most famous works of the piano trio reper-toire, Haydn’s “Gypsy” piano trio and Beethoven’s “Archduke” piano trio. “I grant you that the Haydn is the piano’s moment to shine,” said Carolyn Cam-eron. “Haydn intended the piano to be the focal point, with the other in-struments as supporting characters, so to speak. There are very few in-stances in this work where the viola part is not also played by the piano. My apologies to Alexis.”

Both Angela Snyder (violin) and Alexis More have their moments in the sun with the Beethoven “Arch-duke” trio. “In the hands of Beetho-ven, the piano trio is a more collabora-tive effort, giving each member an important and unique voice,” said Snyder.

The group will be touring with fi-nancial assistance from the Columbia Basin Trust, the Columbia Kootenay Cultural Alliance, and private donor Dr. R.J. Cameron who also happens to be married to Carolyn Cameron.

Vertical dance with a down-

town twistFor the Bulletin

Looking for some-thing decidedly differ-ent this Labour Day long weekend? In fact, something that has never been done be-fore?

Join vertical dancer Trina Rasmuson in her “Fly me to the moon…and other short journeys” per-formances on Kimber-ley’s Platzl.

What is Vertical Dance? Vertical Dance combines the artistry of contemporary dance with the sport of climbing and rap-pelling to create a cap-tivating visceral expe-rience. Trina will be suspended using ropes and harness-es  on the side of the new Spirit Rock Climbing Centre under construction on Deer Park Avenue in the Platzl.

“Fly me to the moon…” is a decidedly whimsical romp through characters and feelings that ev-

eryone experiences throughout the day. Consisting of a num-ber of dance pieces, the performance illus-trates that despite our deepest desire to charge forth in life, we still take time to dream, love, or just plain be ‘ridiculous!

Performances will take place on Friday, August 30th and Sat-urday, August 31 at 7 p.m., and on Sunday, September 1 at 1 p.m. Admission by dona-tion – suggested $5-$10.

Trina Rasmuson has been choreo-graphing Vertical dance for 10 years and for the last five of those has performed almost exclusively in ‘wilder’ places- in-cluding the local climbing cliffs of St. Mary Lake. For this year’s show in the more ‘urban’Platzl, the audience is invited to bring a lawn chair and enjoy the close-up view as Trina swings, bounces and interprets life through vertical dance and jazz music.

Varying length of jail times for co-conspirators

MiChele YounGKamloops Daily News

Three Cranbrook men were sentenced to terms of five to 12 years in jail for their varying roles in con-spiring to kill a for-mer drug-gang rival.

B.C . Supreme Court Justice Dev Dley said each man’s case had to be con-sidered on its own, but added that all three have long roads in front of them if they want to be pro-ductive members of society.

Lonnie Adams, Colin Correia and Lorne Carry were also banned from possess-ing firearms, ammu-nition and explosives for the rest of their lives.

“Conspiracy to commit murder and counselling to com-mit murder are seri-ous offences,” Dley said Friday.

The trio were charged for hiring an-other long-time crim-inal in 2009 to kill Doug Mahon, a Cran-brook drug trafficker who eventually left his organization. The men believed Mahon was involved in the shooting of a member of their group.

They provided the killer for hire with an AK-47 and ammuni-tion.

“It was intended to be a brutal assassina-tion,” the judge said.

Dley sentenced the most hardened of the three, Colin Correia, to 12 years in jail for counselling to com-mit murder, conspira-cy to commit murder, illegal transfer of a firearm and another weapons charge.

Correia, 36, has a long criminal record that includes stolen property, resisting ar-rest and assault caus-ing bodily harm. He has two young daugh-ters.

Dley said the only mitigating factor in his case was that his brother has offered him a job in his con-crete business after the jail term ends. Working against that is that he planned to kill someone over a long period of time, he was involved in providing the weapon and his own drug or-ganization would have benefitted.

Correia’s ability to rehabilitate himself was questionable, he said.

Dley gave Correia credit for double time served while awaiting trial, which shaved 65.5 months off the jail term.

Carry is 30 years

old and has no crimi-nal record. He main-tained he was enticed into the criminal life-style and pressured into the conspiracy, the judge said.

Carry said he left the drug gang on his own, but Dley said he was forced out. Carry has been compliant since being arrested, but he was also a driving force behind the murder conspira-cy and provided the machine gun that was to be the weapon.

“This was more than tough talk,” said Dley.

Still, he found Carry was remorseful and has support in turning his life around. He has also been out on bail for the past two and a half years and has met the conditions during that time.

For that, Dley sen-tenced him to 10 years for conspiring,

Jail time for Cranbrook conspiratorscounselling murder, and firearms charges.

Adams, 36, has two young children and family support and he plans to move on. He has been in segregat-ed custody for 11 months because he has rejected his crim-inal connections, said Dley.

“His change of heart has apparently left him an outcast from his former col-

leagues,” he said, adding Adams has stated he has “crossed the Rubicon.”

He has a criminal record involving charges such as pos-session of stolen property and non-compliance.

Dley said he was impressed with Ad-ams’s statement of re-morse in court, but he couldn’t ignore his past. Still, a lengthy

i n c a r c e r a t i o n wouldn’t help his re-habil itation, the judge said.

While Adams was found guilty of coun-selling to commit murder, he was not charged with conspir-acy. He was sen-tenced to five years, with credit for 67 months in custody.

From Page 1Since most longboard

races are held on city streets, then city streets are where you need to train to be ready for an event.

Much of the riding is done at night for a couple of reasons, Wesche says — better speed, and safe-ty.

“We ride at night. The wind is going downhill so you can go faster. And at night, you can see the headlights of a car coming and you’ve gone by them before they realize you are there, so it’s much more predictable.”

And since every com-munity in B.C. has steep hills, you are not going to get longboarders paying for the use of a track, even if a City provided one, Wesche said.

Oakley suggested that as longboarding was a le-gitimate sport, boarders may have to organize a bit more in order to deal with other bodies such as Council.

Wesche was against that idea.

“We don’t need an-other body. Cyclists and roller bladers don’t need to be organized. You won’t get everybody who rides longboards to go to meetings. I’d go to a meet-ing. I wear a helmet. But not everyone will. We need to act as role models but we don’t need a soci-

ety.”There is in fact a loose

association of longboard-ers in the Kootenays, but that’s as far as Wesche would like to see it go.

Oakley pointed out that when Council wants to talk to longboarders they have to know who to talk to.

“When complaints get to a certain level, Council has to respond,” he said.

Wesche said he was more than willing to be a spokesperson and he also said he’d try to bring a few more riders to the next meeting (scheduled for September) but that it would be easier to get people to come if it were not held at the RCMP sta-tion.

“There has to be mu-tual trust,” he said. “I’m one of the few who would even come into the de-tachment.”

It was the decided the next meeting would be held at the Aquatic Centre meeting room.

Milliken said he would suggest someone in the Kimberley Detachment take the lead on the safety rodeo aspect and would ask that member to at-tend the next meeting.

Oakley said he’d try to bring another City Coun-cillor along.

The discussion will continue on Thursday, September 19.

boarders will continue

CYCLIStS WaRNed

Kimberley’s younger sprouts who took glee-fully to the city’s new sidewalks as a speedway

for their bicycles are being warned this week that riding bikes on any sidewalks will have to stop.

Earlier this year, council was in a mellow and lenient mood and decided not to press the matter too far when re-ports of sidewalk-riding reached them. But now, with new walks, the practice is becoming too prevalent even to

the extent that pedestri-ans are being forced into the side of the road by cyclists.

Aldermen decided it would have to stop but agreed that one warning should be given before police are asked to deal with youthful offenders.

Alderman Mrs. Burr-in put in a word for the tiny tots who ride their tricycles on the side-walks and her fellow al-

dermen agreed they should not be disturbed. But for the older ones: That’s All Fellows.

The Cranbrook and District Arts Coun-cil is offering two fantastic new work-shops for the month of September.

The first is a two-day workshop by Ei-leen Gidman, entitled “Art Cloth Work-shop.” If you are uninspired by continuing to create on canvas and paper, Eileen opens up the path to creative explorations in mixed media by teaching students how to use procion dyes on 100 per cent cot-ton. Students can use copied designs to work with but are also encouraged to cre-ate and use their own original designs.

Gidman, whose formal art training came from studies at the Emily Carr Insti-tute of Art and Design, says: “Creating luscious art pieces on fabric with dyes was a natural extension for me, being some-one who sews and who has painted wa-tercolours all her life. Over the last nine years I have given workshops on painting with dyes, sold my fabrics in stores and at shows (including two national quilt shows), and this year have exhibited my textile art at the Key City Theatre, Cran-brook and the Langham Gallery, Kaslo.”

Would you like to create some unique fabric pieces? This workshop will give you the opportunity to not only learn the technique of painting with dyes but you can expect to have several pieces com-pleted in the two days that can either be framed, sewn or collaged.

The course costs $120 with some addi-tional supply costs and runs from Sep-tember 7 – 8, 10-2 p.m. both days, in the CDAC workshop space. Pre-registration is a must so please get in touch with the CDAC office to register your place today.

The second September workshop, by Sonya Rokosh, is called “Introduction to Pottery: Hand-building 101.” Starting September 11, 6-8 p.m. and running on Wednesday evenings for eight weeks until October 30, this is a project-orient-ed course that gets students involved in hand building and clay techniques that

do not require the use of a pottery wheel. Sonya Rokosh grew up overseas in

Peru, a land where ceramics were imbed-ded in the country’s history. Her interest in pottery only began after she enrolled in a high school ceramics class on the West Coast. After obtaining a small artistic scholarship for her pottery work in high school, Sonya Rokosh was devoted to keeping this creative outlet as a part of her life. Gaining her training from classes taught by West Coast artists such as Peggy Elmes, Ron Douglas, and Ann Coleman, Sonya is starting to develop pieces that are quirky and fun. She has sold work in local markets while living on Vancouver Island, and also enjoys customizing com-mission pieces for clients. Her personal studio and business, Earthenfern, is based out of her third generation family cabin at Wasa Lake Provincial Park.

Over the eight-week course, students will be guided through different projects

ranging from pinch pots to birdhouses, with the opportunity to create up to six final pieces over the duration of the course. The cost of this workshop? Only $96 per person, supplies included. This workshop would make a great gift for an artistic friend, a great activity to take up with a friend or family member, or as a treat for younger art enthusiasts just be-ginning to explore artistic mediums.

Individual classes can be booked at $12 a person. Please get in touch to find out what projects run on which evenings or check out the Facebook page at: www.facebook.com/CranbrookArtsCouncil. As with all workshops, please register early to avoid disappointment.

All workshop registrations can be made through Helen at the CDAC office either in person at the Cranbrook and District Arts Council’s location in room 104, 135 10th Avenue South or over the phone on 250-426-4223.

Hi Wendy:I am having a horrible year so far. I

think everything that could have hap-pened to me this year has happened. It seems my friends and co-workers are having a bad year and I don’t want to bu-rden them with my problems too. I need your guides help in an-swering a few questions for me.

My husband is going in for surgery on his hip and I was wondering if the oper-ation will be successful?

We found out my grand-daughter is about to have a child and I was wondering if her and her boyfriend will stay together? My son is very upset with her and his nerves are bad. Do you think he will be okay?

My husband wants to go on a trip be-fore his surgery but I am reluctant to go. Can you ask your guides if we do go if it will be a good trip for us?

I read your column and I trust what your guides say to you.

Feeling Overwhelmed

Dear Feeling Overwhelmed:I hear and feel what you are saying to

me about this year. Many of us are living the same rollercoaster ride of emotions and problems that you are experiencing

this year. My guide told me this was going to be a year of new beginnings and also a year of many endings of all kinds. This can mean endings in relationships, family members passing over to the other side, job losses, and good friendships ending and so on.

New beginnings as well can mean new love interests coming into a person’s life, new jobs, and new moves to differ-ent areas and so on.

Both ways it all means a great deal of stress, high and low emotions and dif-

ficult decisions that a person doesn’t want to make must be made. If one does not become accountable for the deci-sions they make this year then next year will be worse for them. There are a lot of people walking in your shoes at this time as well.

Your husband’s surgery on his hip will be successful. However, we do see a minor complication with the anaesthetic. So make sure he checks out his allergies before he goes into surgery. Talk to your doctor about this before his surgery and before you go on holiday. Yes, I think your husband is correct, I think you both need some time away together. We feel that you will have a wonderful time on

your holiday with absolutely no compli-cations happening during your trip. So, go for it girl, and have a good time.

We see your granddaughter and her boyfriend not staying together on this plane in this lifetime. This young man is very immature for his age and he does not accept responsibility of any kind well. We will be very surprised if this young man stays with her during her pregnancy. Yes, we can see that your son is very upset about his daughter because he knows what her boyfriend is like. He had a feel-ing that this was going to happen and he is just blowing off some steam at this time. I feel that when the baby is born he will fall in love all over again with his new grandchild. You have a very nice son and he will stand by his daughter.

In conclusion you know that we all make mistakes in our lives and we have to deal with them as best as we can. You lived through your mistakes and trials and tribulations and decisions in your life and now your son and granddaughter will do the same. So just for this moment in time go for that trip with your husband and enjoy yourself and forget about the rest of the world. It’s a gift that is being given to you by the universe to spend this quality time which is much needed with your husband.

Wendy

Reflections on the ‘annus horribilis’

aSK WeNDY

Wendy Evano

Eileen Gidman

PAGE 6 TUESDAY, AUGUST 20, 2013

It’s a silly question, obviously, but it still has to be asked. What, if anything, should the rest of the world do about

the tragedy in Egypt? The same question has been hanging in the air about the even greater Syrian tragedy for well over a year now, and it is starting to come up again in Iraq as well.

All three of the biggest countries in the heart of the Arab world are now in a state of actual or incipient civil war. The death toll in the Syria civil war last month was 4,400 people. More than 1,000 people were killed by bombs and bullets last month in Iraq, the bloodiest month in the past five years. And at least 1,000 peo-ple have been killed in Egypt in the past week, the vast majority of them unarmed civilians murdered by the army.

You will note that I did not write “killed in clashes.” That’s the sort of weasel-word formula that the media use when they do not want to offend powerful friends. Let’s be plain: the Egyptian army is deliberately massacring supporters of the democrati-cally elected Muslim Brotherhood govern-ment that it overthrew last June (whom it now brands as “terrorists”) in order to terrorise them into submission.

The “deep state” is coming back in Egypt, and the useful idiots who now be-lieve that the army is on their side, the secular democrats of the left and the op-portunistic Noor Party on the religious right, will in due course find themselves

back in the same old police stations, being tortured by the same old goons. So should outsiders just stand by and watch it all happen?

The inaction of the United States is due to two causes. First, the only major lever-

age at Barack Obama’s dis-posal, cancelling the annu-al $1.3 billion in aid that Washington gives to the Egyptian army, is no threat at all. It would instantly be replaced, and probably in-creased, by the rich and conservative Arab monar-

chies of the Gulf that heartily approve of the Egyptian army’s coup.

Secondly, Washington remains trans-fixed by the notion that its alliance with Egypt is important for American security. This hoary myth dates back to the long-gone days when the US depended heavily on importing oil from the Gulf, and almost all of it had to pass through Egypt’s Suez Canal. Today less than ten percent of the oil burned in America comes from the Middle East, and new domestic produc-tion from fracking is shrinking that share even further.

Even if Obama understood that Egypt is not a vital American strategic interest and ended US military aid to the country, it would only be a gesture (although a de-sirable one). The International Monetary Fund has already broken off talks on a large new loan to Egypt, and the European Union is talking about cutting aid to the country, but there are no decisive mea-

sures available to anybody outside the Arab world, and no willingness to act within it.

There will be no major military inter-vention in Syria either, although outside countries both within the Arab world and beyond it will continue to drip-feed sup-plies to their preferred side. And the Iraqi government’s request last Friday for re-newed US military aid to stave off renewed civil war there has no hope of success. Getting involved again militarily in Iraq would be political suicide for Obama.

So what’s left of the Arab spring? On the face of it, not much. Tunisia, where the first democratic revolution started three years ago, still totters forward, and there is more democracy in Morocco than there used to be, but that’s about it. The non-vio-lent democratic revolutions that have worked so well in many other parts of the world are not doing very well in the Arab world.

There may be many reasons for this, but one stands out above all the others. In the Arab world, unlike most other places, two rival solutions to the existing autoc-racy, poverty and oppression compete for popular support: democracy and Islam-ism. The result, in one country after an-other, is that the autocrats exploit that division to retain or regain power. Democ-racy may win in the end, but it is going to be a very long struggle.

ASSOCIATED PRESSRoger Federer is slid-

ing in the ATP rankings, now down to No. 7.

Federer, who spent more weeks at No. 1 than anyone, already

had reached his lowest spot in a decade by dropping to No. 5 after Wimbledon - and he fell two more places Mon-day.

Barring a withdraw-

al, Federer will be seed-ed seventh at the U.S. Open, where he won five of his 17 Grand Slam titles.

Canada’s Milos Ra-onic slipped out of the

top 10, dropping one spot to No. 11. Raonic, fromThornhill, Ont., was beaten by John Isner of the United States in the third round of the Cincinnati Open.

ASSOCIATED PRESSCONGLETON, England —

British Eventing said that 26-year-old New Zealand rider Tom Gadsby was killed in a fall at the Somerford Park International Horse Trials in England on Sun-day.

Gadsby was competing in the cross-country section of the three-day endurance event when his mount fell while jumping a fence.

“Our thoughts and prayers are with Tom’s family and close friends at this very sad time,’’ said

BE chief executive Mike Ether-ington-Smith. “The world of eventing is a closely knit commu-nity and everyone will be shocked and deeply saddened.’’

Gadsby was riding a seven-year-old gelding that was not in-jured during the incident.

ASSOCIATED PRESSSAO PAULO, Brazil — FIFA

Secretary General Jerome Valcke says Sao Paulo’s stadium will be ready to host the opening match of the 2014 World Cup after over-coming its slow pace of construc-tion.

A few months ago FIFA had doubts about whether the venue would be delivered by the De-cember deadline established for all World Cup stadiums. But Val-cke said Monday after an inspec-tion tour in Sao Paulo that: ``Yes, it will be ready.’’

Sao Paulo was Valcke’s first stop in a four-day tour to inspect construction work in some of the host cities. He will also visit Curi-tiba and Manaus before attend-ing a board meeting of the local organizing committee in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday.

BARRY COULTERA 15-year-old basketbal-

ler from Cranbrook took her place on the national stage earlier this month, taking part in the U15 National Championships in St. John’s, Newfoundland.

Bobby-Jo Colburn played forward on Team BC, com-prised of girls from all over the province. And when the dust had settled, Team BC came out of the tournament fifth overall.

Team BC split their pool games, cruising to opening 64-42 victory over Manitoba on Monday, August 5, but came up against a tough On-tario squad the next day, los-ing 59-38 (Ontario went on to win gold in the tourna-ment). In the opening play-off game on Thursday, Au-gust 8, B.C. took on Sas-katchewan, who won 63-53.

“We should have won that game,” Colburn said. “We didn’t play very well. And one of our best players hurt herself in the second game (against Ontario). She tore her ACL. It made it tougher for us to win — but we still should have won.”

Team BC rallied after that loss, defeating New Bruns-wick 81-33 on Friday, August 9, and then Prince Edward Island on the Saturday, re-sulting in a fifth-place overall finish.

“Since we lost that game,

going into the playoffs, it was our goal that we should try to finish in the higher rank-ings,” Colburn said.

The Cranbrookian for-ward herself had a stellar tournament, finishing in the top 10 for several offensive categories (after the five rounds), including two-pointer percentage (tied for first), two-pointers made (seventh), three-pointers made (fourth), three-pointer percentage (tied for first), match points (tied for ninth), field goals made (tied for seventh) and field goal per-centage (tied for first). Col-burn was thus selected for the tournament’s second all-star team.

Team BC was put togeth-er together towards the end of June, giving the girls just over a month to bond, what with practices and a couple of tournaments before the nationals. Colburn said she made lots of friends over the short season, and of course the trip down east was a good adventure.

“It was really fun,” Col-burn said. “Newfoundland is a very pretty place. We went down to the ocean a couple of times.”

Team BC stayed in the dormitory of the Memorial University of Newfoundland — a little on the spartan side, Colburn indicated, but it was still fun.

The top four teams at the championships ended up being Ontario (Gold), Que-bec (Silver), Nova Scotia

(Bronze) and Saskatchewan (fourth).

The U15 Boys champion-ships were also held in St.

John’s at the same time. Again, Ontario finished in the Gold Medal spot, Quebec Silver, Manitoba Bronze and

Alberta in fourth. Team BC finished in seventh place in that tournament.

Vasek Pospisil of Ver-non, B.C., moved up one spot to No. 39.

In other changes, French Open champion Rafael Nadal - who won hard-court titles at

Montreal and Cincinna-ti the last two weeks - rose to No. 2 from No. 3, swapping with Wimble-don champion Andy Murray. Novak Djokovic remained No. 1.

Isner, runner-up to Nadal at Cincinnati, re-turned to the top 20, jumping to 14th from 22nd.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Many of your ideas could be chal-lenged, but that doesn’t worry you. Your friends will manage to add a touch of chaos to your life, as they will be clamoring for your attention. You might feel as if there is no way to continue on with your plans. Tonight: Go with the flow. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You could feel pressured by sev-eral different situations. An im-portant matter at work demands your attention, but a roommate or family member also needs your feedback on the domestic front. Know that you can’t please everyone all the time. Tonight: Work late. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. You respect this person and often get important information from him or her. At the same time, an overwhelming amount of people seem to need to give you their feedback. To-night: Catch up on a good friend’s

news. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are unusually responsive to the Moon phases, and today’s Full Moon could find you jug-gling your needs while also try-ing to be there for a significant other. Realize what is happening and consider how pressured you feel. Tonight: Continue the jug-gling act. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Others will be a little too chal-lenging for your taste. You also might feel overloaded right now. It could be difficult to figure out how to handle all the requests, calls and appearances. Just try to enjoy your popularity. Tonight: Go along with the suggestion that you like the most. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might be feeling out of sorts, and you will have no difficulty telling someone just how you feel. You could find that several disagreements will emerge at the same time if you are not careful. Take a step back rather than make a mistake. Tonight: Stay levelheaded and calm. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

A flirtation might have a lot more power over you than you initially had intended or even considered. You might not be sure whether to attend an im-portant get-together tonight or hang out with this person. Ultimately, the choice is yours. Tonight: Try to squeeze it all in. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) An authority figure could be more ornery than he or she has been in a while. This person even might be a parent or higher-up. Do not let this situation, or per-haps a different one involving your personal life, get out of control. Tonight: Be where you are happiest. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your phone might ring right off the hook. You could become rather crazy as a result of dealing with all the knocks on the door. Do not plan on getting every-thing accomplished that you wanted. Save some of your ener-gy for later on. Tonight: Beam in more of what you want. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might be a bit too busy jug-gling your budget, your responsi-

bilities and other people’s needs. You could feel overwhelmed by everything you need to get done. Do not take any risks before you do more research. Only then will you be able to decide. Tonight: Indulge a friend. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You will have a lot of energy and want to channel it into what you feel would be most appropriate. Listen to your inner voice. You might want to be more sponta-neous, but understand that you could hit some opposition along the way. Tonight: Do whatever you want. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Stay centered, and realize that you might not want to get sucked in to the high energy that is swirling around you. Even when trying to focus, you could experience many disruptions. A close friend refuses to agree with you. Avoid the confrontation. To-night: Do your own thing. BORN TODAY Musician Robert Plant (1948), singer/songwriter Isaac Hayes (1942), boxing promoter Don King (1931)

Dear Annie: Three years ago, my mother was diagnosed with lung cancer and then a brain tumor. She has had numerous surger-ies and treatments. Mom is the youngest of five siblings. The whole time she has been fighting this dis-ease, her siblings have been unsupportive. In three years, one uncle has visited twice and called twice. Another lives less than two miles away, but has stopped by for a total of one hour. His wife and kids have neither vis-ited nor phoned. My aunt speaks to my mother about twice a year. She never visits. She also yells at Mom and is rude to her. She has managed to convince my 84-year-old grandmother that these arguments are my parents’ fault. Several years ago, this same aunt had cancer, and my mother was there for her all the time -- like family should be. I find it hurtful and disheartening that her siblings are so uncaring. They never offer to help, let alone offer words of comfort. Is this normal behavior? The only thing my mother has asked for is moral support from her fam-ily, and she has received none. My father, my brother and I feel only animosity toward these family members, knowing how much they have hurt our mother. I think we should forget about them and cut off contact. What do you say? -- Loving Daughter Dear Daughter: We don’t know why your aunts and uncles haven’t been more sup-portive. In some families, one person often becomes a “caregiver” by virtue of his or her personality. It sounds as if your mother is that person. It means her siblings do not know how to respond appropriately in care-giving situations because they never have had to do so. Before you decide to cut them off, please let your mother decide. She may prefer to forgive them and continue the rela-tionships, although with a more limited set of expectations. Dear Annie: My niece was married at city hall nearly two years ago. My wife and I at-tended the ceremony, and afterward, we went to lunch. Two weeks later, they had a small catered reception at his grand-mother’s house. My wife and I attended and gave them a card with a check. Now they want to have their wedding blessed in a church. I think that’s great, ex-cept they are having another reception, this time at a banquet hall with all the bells and whistles. Since we already gave a card and a check at the first reception, are we obligat-ed to give another? If so, how much? I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. -- Confused About the Etiquette Dear Confused: You aren’t giving a gift in honor of a reception. You are giving a wed-ding gift to the couple. Since you already have done so, you are under no obligation to present them with another. However, if you feel obligated to bring something to the latest reception, it could be a small gift with sentiment attached, such as a framed photo-graph of the couple. Dear Annie: I feel compelled to write to “Can’t Believe Adults Act This Way,” whose daughter is being bullied by other teachers at her school. You suggested the main bully craves power and control, thinks the daugh-ter is a threat and could be insecure. This is happening to me right now. I am a veteran teacher of 29 years. The principal is indeed as you described. She has wanted me gone for the past four years and has made outrageous accusations that I have had to defend with the union. I realized, also, that this was draining my energy to teach. My advice for this first-year teacher is to look for a new job where she feels comfortable and can teach and do what she is trained for and not waste her en-ergy on bullies. She sounds like a promising teacher who needs to be planted in fertile soil where she can flourish. -- Looking for Something Better Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.
