A business person from the Lower Main-land is planning to es-tablish a medical mari-juana operation in Meadowbrook.

On Friday, November 1, the Regional District of East Kootenay (RDEK)

board of directors voted to begin amendments to the Kimberley Rural Zoning Bylaw to regulate medical marijuana.

Board Chair Rob Gay said that a business per-son approached the board to find out where the RDEK would stand on a medical marijuana operation within its boundaries.

The federal govern-ment has approved new regulations for medical marijuana operations, which will come into ef-fect on April 1, 2014.

After April, medical marijuana producers will need to seek local government zoning for the operation.

Senior’s Lifestyle Community

Keeps Winter at BayLife in winter can be daunting for

seniors. The cold temperatures can make the simplest of tasks much more difficult. Chores like shoveling the drive-way or picking up groceries can turn into momentous tasks. Ice and snow represent real physical dangers that can not only cause a nasty fall but also get in the way of activities outside the house. There is always the worry of a broken or failing heating system that can result in all manner of bills and troubles, adding more unnecessary stress. Combine these stresses and it may lower quality of life, causing family members endless worry.

Fortunately retirement housing at Garden View Village can provide plenty of peace of mind for both the residents and the family members, with apartments designed to take the worry out of winter. Not only are the studio, one and two-bedroom suites appointed for comfort and independence but also include many key features to help with each resident’s individual wants and needs. Independent heat and air-conditioning controls allow them to set the apartments temperature to whatever will be most comfortable for them. Full kitchens and large wheelchair accessible bathrooms can help residents maintain their independence while weekly housekeeping services and 24-hour assistance is available for complete peace of mind.

Since the Village boasts many leisure opportunities, residents don’t have to worry about braving the harsh winter weather in search of relaxation and fun. Just outside of their front door they will find many amenities such as a games room, library, and spa, as well as many lounge areas which

are certain to be filled with friendly faces and familiar smiles. There are also special recreational and social activities such as live entertainment, exercise programs and excursions to local attractions, which are all covered in the affordable monthly rent. Also included in the rent are the delicious meals which are prepared by the on-site chef in the warm central dining room where residents can enjoy meal next to a cozy fireplace where friends and family are always welcome to join.

Garden View Village also understands just how much pets are a part of the family. Residents are encouraged to share their apartments with their companions in the totally pet friendly building.

With all of these wonderful features the Village relieves worries not only for residents but also for family members. “I had the best winter last year because I live three hours away and didn’t have to worry about my mom being alone.” said Linda Frew, whose mother is a resident at Garden View Village. “I have total peace of mind knowing there is staff on site 24 hours a day, that she has company for dinner every night, and she is being well cared for. But most of all I have peace of mind knowing she is very happy.”

No longer should seniors have to worry about shoveling the walkway or what they’ll do should a maintenance emergency befall them. Cold weather is no reason that seniors shouldn’t be free to enjoy the many activities, freedoms, and quality of life. Garden View Village provides just that and much, much more. Open daily; call Garden View Village at (250) 427-4014 for more information or to book a tour.

The announcement this week that British Columbia and Alberta had reached an agree-ment on a pipeline ‘framework’ came as something of a surprise, given rumoured frost relations between B.C. Premier Christy Clark and Alberta’s Alison Redford.

While some, such as the Provincial Chamber of Commerce are laud-ing it, others, such as Columbia River Revel-stoke MLA Norm Mac-donald say it’s a whole lot of nothing.

“It was an odd spec-tacle,” Macdonald said. “It put the story into the news cycle but the pur-pose is not clear to me.”

Macdonald says the nothing has changed with the announce-ment.

“Alberta was never going to allow BC to have any royalties as

this framework says, and nothing else changed.

“It didn’t clarify any-thing. Most British Co-lumbians would be of the view that something

is going on behind the scenes. The ev-er-changing BC Liberal position on pipelines has nothing to do with the true intent of the government.”

Doug Clovechok, Macdonald’s opposi-tion in the last election, and current Regional Director of Zone 2 for the BC Liberal Party disagrees that it is meaningless.

Clovechok believes some real progress has been made, especially by Alberta accepting B.C.’s five conditions for pipelines.

From Page 1It will be up to the

local government to zone properties so that they can control where the medical marijuana operations are located.

Previously, produc-ers could set up opera-tions wherever they wished, with a license from Health Canada and without the knowl-edge of local govern-ment.

The new regulations will also contain strin-gent guidelines, includ-ing 24-hour monitoring of the site.

Inside a municipali-ty, the operations would need a business license. But the regional district does not require licens-es for businesses out-side municipalities.

Gay said the business person interested in set-ting up an operation in Meadowbrook does not have a lease on a prop-erty yet and is doing some business planning ahead of the new regu-lations.

“As far as we’ve heard, that’s the first person to come for-ward,” said Gay. “He’s

from the lower main-land apparently and maybe wasn’t able to get what he needed there.”

But Gay said because the regulations are so new, the board is a little “green” about how to regulate grow opera-tions.

“The motion was around us trying to catch our bylaws up to the rules and see if that would be a permitted use on the land,” he said.

Some members of the board felt the opera-tion would be better suited in an industrial area, rather than on a rural farm.

“They probably bet-ter fit an industrial site or at least a commercial site rather than at a ranch in the middle of nowhere,” said Gay. “I think our desire would be to follow the advice of others and have this move into an industrial or commercial area where you have the ap-propriate power or se-curity.”

Gay said that he per-sonally would not want to see a medical mari-

Fields of green. Could this be coming to Meadowbrook?

Medical marijuana as a farm operation would be legal under current RDEK zoning

juana operation just anywhere.

“I think medical marijuana if they can do it properly, it’s not something we want in all of our areas, but it sounds like it’s going to be regulated and it’s just another agricultural crop.”

The board also asked staff to consult with the B.C. Ministry of Envi-

ronment to find out if medical marijuana is protected under the Farm Practices Protec-tion Act.

Also known as the Right To Farm Act, the legislation protects a farmer’s right to farm without unwarranted nuisance complaints about things such as odour, noise, dust or other disturbances.

“It may not be our place to say yes or no to medical marijuana if it’s a farm endeavour,” said Gay.

If medical marijuana is considered a farm op-eration, Gay said it would be permitted in Meadowbrook under the current zoning.

From Page 1“A low pressure system

will develop Wednesday night and continue through Thursday. This system is expected to bring significant snowfall to the Columbia and Koo-tenay districts and to the Central Interior on Thurs-day.”

The Weather Office stopped short of saying how much snow we will receive, only indicating that it will depend on where the system passes

Snowfall warningover.

“Snowfall amounts over the regions men-tioned above will vary de-pending on the actual track of the low pressure system,” reads the weath-er alert.

The snowstorm comes less than a week after the region saw its first snow fall of the season over the weekend, with accounts of 19 centimetres in Cran-brook and 28 centimetres in Kimberley.

It is with much sadness that Paul and Jane announce the passing of their Mom on November 4, 2013 at 7:45 p.m. Paul and Jane were with her when she passed.

Eleanor was born on March 2, 1926 in Swift Current, Sask. She left Swift Current at 16. Eleanor graduated high school early and chose to enroll in a lab technician program at St. Paul’s hospital in Vancouver. Upon arrival she was told she was too young to be in the program. At 17 they did accept her. Once she completed the program, she worked in the lab at St. Paul’s for 7 years. Eleanor was told of an opening for a lab technician at a hospital in Kimberley. She was given the job and arrived in Cranbrook by train in October 1951. Eleanor arrived a day early, consequently there was no one there to meet her. In typical Eleanor style she found a ride to Kimberley in no time. Whoever it was that gave her a ride – they ended up laughing about it for years. He told her it was the hat that matched the smile that intrigued him. This person dropped her to her new home at the Nurse’s residence. She had only just arrived when she was asked if she could go to the hospital to collect blood and do lab work on a very sick woman. Eleanor was taken aback when she entered the room and found a large, sad family gathered around the woman’s bed. The woman was Olga Kavanagh. Olga died shortly after. It was in 1956 when Eleanor joined the family and married Buck, Olga’s 6th child. Buck and Eleanor were married for 49 years.

Eleanor was predeceased by Buck November 3, 2005. Her father James Mccreary Forsythe in 1967; her mother Gladys Eugene Forsythe in 1994; her brother James (Jimmy) Forsythe in 2001; sister-in-law Rose in 2011.

Eleanor is survived by her son Paul Kavanagh (Liela), daughter Jane Kavanagh, granddaughter Kim Kavanagh (Travis Waite), grandson Michael Kavanagh, 6 great grandchildren; Jadyn, Kiera, Briele, Shayna, Jewel and Wyatt, 3 nephews; Michael, Rob and Mark, 8 nieces; Patricia, Joan, Kay, Cecelia, Colleen, Fern, Heather and Lynn.

There will be no service at Eleanor’s request. An open house will be held at Paul and Liela’s on Friday, November 8, 3:00 p.m. onward. 863 - 307th Street, Marysville.

In lieu of flowers the family would ask for donations to be made to the Pines Memorial, c/o Bev Banks, 372 - 108th Ave, Kimberley, BC V1A 1C6.

Cremation will follow.

PUBLIC NOTICE

From Page 3“Premier Clark has

been crystal clear from the beginning that any agree-ment made with Alberta and/or the proponent would have to satisfy the five conditions for pro-posed heavy oil pipelines that BC has set,” Clovechok said. “These five condi-tions will ensure the re-sponsible production of energy as well as its safe transport to new markets.

“Premier Redford Al-berta has agreed to all of BC’s five conditions which the first four are focussed upon the highest safety and environmental stan-dards possible and the rights of First Nations. Condition 5, which Alber-ta has now accepted, sets out BC’s right to negotiate real economic benefits with industry and is a huge victory for our province.”

Clovechok also said ru-mours of frosty relations have been exaggerated.

“In my opinion and

from what I know about this process, there has never been any evidence that the two Premiers have had anything but a good, constructive working rela-tionship. When it comes to “frosty”, it is my experience that certain the media out-lets often sensationalize that which is not all that sensational.

“This agreement does not mean that the North-ern Gateway Pipeline is now done deal! The pro-ponent has always been obligated and bound to satisfy all of the five condi-tion set out by the Premier Clark; conditions to date they have not satisfied.

“Overall this is a “framework” agreement that demonstrates that the two Premiers are finally speaking the same lan-guage around pipeline de-velopment and have com-mon purpose in relation to opening new markets for resources.

W  e have it! We have it already! The new catchphrase for 2014. And it’s not even 2014 yet.

Every now and again, someone opens his or her mouth and says something which brings the earth, spinning on its axis, to a halt. T-shirts are printed, Facebook memes proliferate.

In January of 2012, the Italian language gave us perhaps the last great inter-national catchphrase — “Vada a bordo, C----!” (“Get on board, you ----!”). This is from a radio exchange between Italian coast guard captain Gregorio De Falco and Francesco Shettino, the captain of Italian cruise ship Costa Concordia which ran aground off the coast of Isola del Gi-glio in January 2012. Shettino had quickly escaped the listing vessel, and was drifting about in a lifeboat while passengers were still trapped aboard. And De Falco or-dered him back to his duties.

These four words perfectly encapsulate the metaphor, whereby one individual’s character flaw became a symbol for what is pathetic and ludicrous in our lives, the tragi-comedy of our expectations that we are in fact, noble and courageous.

“Vada a bordo, C----” is what you can say to anyone who is underperforming to the point of putting other people in jeopardy.

And now, another gift to the lexicon, this time from Canadian English — a phrase that perfectly encapsulates what is drunken and slovenly: “… in one of my drunken stupors,” courtesy of the mayor of one of the greatest cities in North America.

Yes, on Tuesday, Mayor Rob Ford ad-mitted he smoked crack cocaine, but wasn’t really sure when, because he was probably really, really drunk at the time.

Oh, I see. No problem then.

Some see Ford’s blurt-ed, seemingly sponta-

neous admission of his drug and alcohol habits, followed by a conference in which he announced he wasn’t stepping down as mayor, as a blatant political play for sympathy. Others could take it as face value — admitting you have a problem is the first step, innit?

In any case, while Ford was in all likeli-hood trying to just clear the air, get stuff off his chest, and ease the impact of the even-tual release of that alleged video of him smoking crack, the ages-old “excuse of drunkenness” has reached a new level of hilarity. Though you admit such stuff with abject remorse, the undercurrent of your admission is, “I didn’t know what I was doing. I was too messed up.”

For instance, if you told your colleague

to “Vada a bordo, C----!” and were taken before the human rights tribunal, you can now say, “I only said, ‘Vada a bordo, C----’ to him (or her) because I was in one of my drunken stupors.”

Oh, I see. No problem then.Mayor Ford has set a precedent. After

all, what goes on in Toronto dictates the behaviour of the rest of the country.

“… in one of my drunken stupors” strips us of our dignity, that particular quality which we all greatly desire, but which doesn’t exist. Say that phrase to yourself as you look in the mirror and watch those six-pack abs, those bulging biceps, that noble chin, and those flowing locks you always picture yourself with, watch them magi-cally disappear, melting into pauchy, flab-by baldness.

Rob Ford has taken us to drunken fool school. Really, if the mayor of Canada’s biggest, most sophisticated city can casu-ally admit to “…one of my drunken stu-pors,” then where does that leave the rest of us slobs? In one of our own drunken stupors, obviously.

But it’s not so bad. In a way, it’s a relief. Mayor Ford, by selflessly sacrificing his dignity, has taken the pressure off us all. Just watch his approval rating go up.

Michael den TandTPostmedia News

So the three miscreants are gone, final-ly; Senators Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin and Patrick Brazeau, are suspended from the upper chamber without pay for the duration of this parliamentary session, likely two years, just as Prime Minister Ste-phen Harper had demanded. The votes weren’t even close. Victory!

Except that it isn’t, really, any kind of victory.

For clues as to why, let’s examine Cana-dian Conservatism today from the point of view of a voter from, say, southwestern Ontario. We look to these folks because they are at the heart of the East-West coali-tion that propelled Harper to a majority in 2011. These are, as a rule centrist pragma-tists; people who supported premier Mike Harris’s provincial Tories back in the day – until they didn’t.

They are represented in cabinet by figures such as Finance Minister Jim Fla-herty, MP for Whitby-Oshawa. He was a scrapper at Queen’s Park in the Harris days; within Harper’s circle he comes off as almost avuncular. Or there’s Lisa Raitt, MP for Halton and minister of labour. Amid the din of imbecilic partisanship, Raitt has often stood out as a thoughtful presence.

There are other Conservatives, in and out of cabinet, from across Canada, who are not directly implicated in the Senate mess, had nothing to do with creating it, and are still trying to do their jobs despite the daily fracas in “the zoo,” as one Conser-vative MP put it to me.

Then, there’s Paul Calandra – MP for Oak Ridges-Markham, northeast of Toron-

to, and parliamentary secretary to the prime minister. He could be among the group mentioned above. He isn’t. It may well be that, like some who take on the “enforcer” role in the NHL, Calandra could skate, pass or score goals, if he wasn’t doing this job. We don’t know, because he has transformed himself into a caricature. His homespun, silly homilies – featuring his children, his parents, the family pizza shop – are already legendary on Twitter. He’s bombing.

But here’s the thing: Calandra’s prob-lem extends well beyond his little tales. His non-answers, counter-attacks, deflections and confabulations appear especially ri-diculous. because the basic position he’s defending is untenable. It’s indefensible by opposition standards, obviously, but also when measured against the small-c con-servative moral standards the government purports to uphold. Thus, Opposition leader Tom Mulcair’s attack in the House of Commons Tuesday: “This is his (Harp-er’s) staff. These are his senators. How long will Canadians have to wait before the prime minister accepts his own responsi-bility?

Personal responsibility is a core conser-vative value. It may be the most important conservative value. Individuals, not gov-ernment, must see to themselves, their families and their communities. Those who go astray, as we’ve heard so often in the talking points about Duffy, Wallin and Brazeau, must be held accountable. And those in charge are generally expected to embrace Harry Truman’s dictum: The buck stops here. The finest modern exam-ple of this was U.S. president Ronald Rea-gan, who said, in taking indirect responsi-

bility for the Iran-Contra affair in 1987: “As the navy would say, this happened on my watch.”

Stephen Harper, from day one of this affair, has taken a quite different approach: He has blamed everyone but himself, and in particular blamed his former chief of staff, Nigel Wright. This makes many Con-servatives uncomfortable: No one who knows Wright believes that, if he did in-deed keep Harper in the dark about his $90,000 payment to Duffy, it was for any reason other than to protect the PM politi-cally. However misguided and wrong-headed that was, it was an act of loyalty. Harper has repaid it with disloyalty.

That leads to this corrosive conclusion: In his personal behaviour, Stephen Harper is not a true conservative, at least not in the way most conservatives like to view them-selves. He’s something different.

In this light, Harper’s unusually em-phatic denunciation of Wright in the House of Commons on Oct. 29 is the low-water mark of this saga – the point at which he crossed the line. And his battle cry at the Calgary convention, “I couldn’t care less what they say,” was the moment, possibly, when the clock began ticking on a Conservative succession. Whatever they may say publicly, his colleagues under-stand they can’t hold Canada just with the hard-core 30 per cent.

In other words, the manner of the oust-ers of these three senators, far from help-ing the PM’s cause, has reinforced the op-position narrative about him; that he is overly fond of control, with a vengeful streak, and set in his ways. It’s difficult to discern a recipe for re-election, let alone a second majority, in this.

Senators’ expulsion reinforces ‘angry Harper’ narrative

Letters to the editoreuropean trade

Mr. Harper is very pleased, after several years of secret ne-gotiations, to have signed an initial trade agreement with the European Union (CETA). Of course, we do not know what benefits, if any, will ac-crue to the average Canadian; but we can assume that a few will benefit enormously and that others will pay the price.

Fortunately, several further steps are required before the agreement can be finalised, providing us some time to question the deal.

As with previous trade agreements, Canada will sacri-fice some sovereignty and will be subject to legal proceedings if we transgress.

NAFTA (1989) in effect granted a private investor (a multi-national corporation, et al) the right to sue a national government for taking mea-sures that could adversely af-fect “the investment”. Billions of dollars have already been paid by countries which were guilty of passing legislation protecting their own people.

It appears that this “right to sue” has spawned a new inter-national industry involving hundreds of high-priced law-yers.

We need to know what’s in it for Canadians.

operation LegacyI belong to Operation Lega-

cy, a group of members of the War Amps Child Amputee (CHAMP) Program dedicated to preserving Canada’s military heritage and teaching other young people how to carry on the remembrance message.

This year, the War Amps is celebrating a major anniversa-ry. Ninety-five years ago, First World War amputee veterans formed the Amputations Asso-ciation of the Great War. The name was changed to the War Amputations of Canada when Second World War amputees joined their ranks. These men later started the CHAMP Pro-gram to assist young amputees like me.

In addition to having had the privilege of learning about Canada’s military heritage from a young age, I also know what it is like to live without a limb – a strong bond that I share with war amputee veter-ans. Because of this, I feel it is my duty to ensure that the sto-ries of war are preserved and its lessons never forgotten.

I have been fortunate to be involved with Operation Legacy by participating in local Remem-brance Day ceremonies and lay-ing wreaths on behalf of the War Amps. I have also donated docu-mentaries from the War Amps Military Heritage Series to the Cranbrook Public Library.

I encourage everyone – par-ticularly young people – to learn more through the War Amps Military Heritage Series documentaries, which are available at a cost-recovery price at waramps.ca.

Carbon offsetsI wake this morning. The

eastern sun rises, illuminating my eyes as I peer over the mountains toward some addi-tional land Teck is purchasing. Over 7,000 hectares of pristine wilderness, but it’s not for min-ing. The press release pro-claims they spent $19 million out of the greenness of their environmental hearts.

I wonder if it’s actually a part of the Pacific Carbon Trust’s (PCT) carbon offset plan: selling our trees to corpo-rations while pollution contin-ues. Worse yet, the balance

sheets of companies showing carbon offset assets of ever in-creasing value, rather than ac-tual liabilities. In the end, get-ting paid for nothing.

Don’t get me wrong; I’m a coal miner who is for responsi-ble industrial development. But credits for carbon capture? Monetizing then privatizing the environment by proxy?

East Kootenay residents angry over the prospect of a public national park, while a corporate private profit park sails right past them. Taxing schools and hospitals through the PCT, further destroying our social infrastructure while an oil company in Alberta gets $1.1 million in subsidies. Insert vomit here.

Another BC Liberal scam: feigning green while privatiz-ing our environment and rip-ping off the next generation. Is there no end to the blind rape and pillage of British Columbi-ans’ collective wealth? Or do we cower in fear of a govern-ment that has gone so far off course that we are now too afraid to turn back?

I guess while watching a senate scandal obfuscated by a crack smoking mayor, I think anything possible.

Lions’ running attack has teeth again with Harris, Logan as CFL playoffs loomJOSHUA CLIPPERTON

Canadian Press

VANCOUVER - It wasn’t long ago that the B.C. Lions’ ground at-tack was in tatters.

Running back An-drew Harris registered an abysmal 10 yards on six carriers in a 31-17 home loss to the Sas-katchewan Roughriders back on Oct. 4 and fol-lowed that up a week later by rushing nine

times for 31 yards in a 40-26 road defeat at the hands of the Calgary Stampeders.

What a difference a month makes.

General manager Wally Buono brought in former Lions running back/kick returner Ste-fan Logan to give his team’s ground game a shot in the arm after the Calgary loss. Following some initial hiccups, B.C. hasn’t looked back.

Coming off two straight wins, that re-energized running game featuring both Harris and Logan could play a big part in Sun-day’s CFL West Division semifinal when the Lions visit chilly Regina to take on the Roughrid-ers.

“The 1-2 punch be-tween me and Stefan has been great,” said Harris. “We definitely feed off each other and when you have that competition with some-one else taking reps and getting in there and you

see them doing well, it definitely gets you going to make some plays.”

Harris, who finished third in the CFL this season with 998 yards on the ground, rushed for 102 yards against Calgary in last week’s regular-season finale. It marked his first 100-yard rushing game since late July and came on the heels of Logan’s 121-yard effort against the Edmonton Eskimos on Oct. 25.

“The biggest thing is we’re two different styles of running backs. It definitely frees up some space for him and it definitely frees up space for me,” said Har-ris, who rushed for 76 yards in the Edmonton game. “When you have two different styles of runners ... it’s going to be tough for teams to game plan against that.”

The five-foot-11, 213-pound Harris is a more straight ahead back, while the five-foot-six, 180-pound

Logan is more shifty.Logan, who played

with the Lions in 2008 before spending four seasons in the NFL, said the fact that B.C. has rushed for over 200 yards in each of the last two weeks has lifted a burden off both the backs and an offensive line that was taking a lot of heat for the lack of production.

“Being a part of it right now, we’re having a great time,” said Logan. “We’re in the meeting rooms and now it’s a little more chill and laid back and having fun instead of all uptight and worrying about how we’re going to look this game. It’s going well and we want to keep it going.”

Having two featured running backs can sometimes cause prob-lems for teams with both players wanting more touches, but Logan said a key for the Lions has been maturi-ty.

Calgary prospect signs on with women’s Avalanche program

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

With rapid turnover in college sports as ath-letes earn diplomas and degrees and move on, the women’s Avalanche are looking towards next year with the addi-tion of their first new recruit.

Taylor Forester, a 6’1” middle out of Cal-gary, has committed to the College of the Rock-ies Avalanche volleyball program and will study business at the begin-ning of the next aca-demic year.

Though young, she already has an impres-sive resume.

Forester was a part of the Southern Alberta Volleyball Club and helped lead her team to a silver medal at the U17 provincial champi-onship, and was also was a part of the team that won gold at the Tier 3 U17 nationals. While playing on a U16 Team Alberta squad, Forester also won a gold medal at the Western Elite Championships.

“I was drawn to the college du to the small class sizes and the one-on-one time with the teachers, as well as being able to play high-level volleyball with a great team,” said Forester in a press re-

lease. “The direction that I

plan to take is offered at the college—this along with the volleyball is ex-actly what I’m looking for. I am excited to start my post-secondary at the college.”

After finishing first in their round-robin pool, Laurie’s Grade 8 squad headed into the semifinal, defeating Fernie Seconary by a set score of 2-1. Heading into the final, they faced down Prince Charles Secondary out of Creston, but fell after two sets, despite putting up a admirable fight. Laurie will get a chance for some redemption when they head to Creston for another tournament in a couple of weeks.

Scott knocks off Kleibrink in Olympic pre-trial showdownC anadian Press

KITCHENER, Ont. - Kelly Scott scored the decisive point in the 10th end and edged Shannon Kleibrink 6-5 on Wednesday in Draw 4 action at the 2013 Cap-ital One Road to the Roar Olympic pre-trial tournament.

In a rematch of the 2005 Canadian Curling Trials final, won 8-7 by Calgary’s Kleibrink, the

two rinks fought for control on tricky ice.

Scott, from Kelowna, B.C., scored the only steal of the game in the sixth end when Klei-brink couldn’t get around the front guards.

“That was a tricky spot, and if you didn’t get on it, it was gone,” Scott said.

Tied 5-5 after nine ends, Scott was able to put the game away on

an open hit.“We felt somewhat in

control (when) we got our deuce and stole the one, but it’s so close and you’re never in the clear,” she said. “We did feel in control with last rock in the last end. It was definitely a con-

scious effort to try to have hammer coming home.”

Scott remains in the A-event of the tri-ple-knockout tourna-ment with two wins.

“It kind of feels like a continuation of the Kingston Scotties last

year,” she said. “We ended that on such a positive note that it feels great to be out in the arena setting again and really having fun out there.”

Kleibrink moves into the B-event with the loss.

Max Reinhart is head-ing back to the show.

The Calgary Flames have recalled Reinhart from the Abbotsford Heat in the AHL, where he has tallied three goals and six assists in 13 games played.

The Flames lost for-ward Curtis Glencross on Tuesday night during a game against the Min-nesota Wild, and is also suffering from a few

more injuries in the line-up.

Reinhart’s presence will give the Flames 13 healthy forwards as the team plays back to back games against the St. Louis Blues and Colora-do Avalanche.

Reinhart spent four years with the Kootenay Ice and won a WHL championship with the team in 2011. He was a third-round selection by Calgary in the 2010 NHL Draft.

YOUR CITY WORKING FOR YOU! CITY OF CRANBROOK

SNOW REMOVAL POLICY

As this winter season approaches, we want to remind you of the City of Cranbrook current Snow and Ice Control procedures to better understand why the City clears snow the way it does. The policy in place clearly identi� es four levels of priorities for streets for City crews to follow:

STREETSClassi� cation “A” – FIRST PRIORITYMajor streets, hospital zones, roads that access emergency service facilities, roads with severe grades and transit routes will be cleared � rst. In some instances, snowfall is heavy enough and continual during the plowing process, that once these routes are cleared crews need to start them over again. That often causes a delay in getting to other areas of the City.

Classi� cation “B” – SECOND PRIORITYThis includes collector streets, the central business district and school zones.

Classi� cation “C” – THIRD PRIORITYThis includes other residential streets within the City whose immediate need for snow and ice control is not as important. Vehicles can move around with limited congestion at suitable speeds.

Classi� cation “D” – FOURTH PRIORITYThe remaining streets, drives, crescents, lanes and alleys where traf� c volume is relatively low. Traf� c is able to proceed at lower speeds in these residential areas.

For a complete look at the Snow Removal Policy, please visit our website.

Working Toward A Greener Community

Improving the safety of the public is behind the City of Cranbrook campaign asking residents and businesses to help keep your streets and sidewalks clear of snow and ice this winter.

“Regularly clearing ice and snow from your sidewalks and driveways will allow much easier access to your property by the � re department, RCMP or paramedics should an accident or other emergencies happen.” says Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services Chief Wayne Price.

Residents are also encouraged to avoid pushing or blowing snow from their sidewalks, driveways and any windrows back into the street, after the City plows have been by. Clearing snow is not just the responsibility of the City Public Works department, which does the best they can with the resources available to keep the community moving during the winter months. Responsibility also lies with each resident and business owner to help clear around their home or business.

“During and following major snowfalls, our snow removal operation runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and operates with a small � eet of vehicles; four salt/sand trucks with belly plows, two graders and two loaders.” says Public Works Director Joe McGowan. “With this schedule and the equipment we have, it is reasonable to expect most areas of the City to be cleared within 3 or 4 days of a snowfall, depending on the amount of snow and how fast it comes down.”

FALL DEER MATING SEASON APPROACHING; RESIDENTS URGED

TO BE AWARE

Residents and visitors are advised to continue to exercise both caution and common sense this fall, as the late autumn deer mating

(rutting) period begins. That is the message from the City of Cranbrook.

In the weeks leading up to the rut (into November and December) bucks increase their displays of dominance and indirect threats. A dominant buck typically circles a rival with deliberate steps; back arched, head low and tail � icking. Bucks can also display dominance by violently thrashing the bushes with their antlers.

“We are into a transition period, where some does with fawns remain wary and potentially aggressive toward humans with dogs,” says Mayor Wayne Stetski. “Now we will likely also see an increase of particularly aggressive acts from the local urban buck population. Residents are reminded to please give deer plenty of space to move or leave the area. Do not walk closer to the deer; � nd another route.”

Under this bylaw, no one is to provide deer with food by intentionally leaving food, food waste or other attractive edible material intended for the sole purposed of feeding deer. For example, leaving out a bale of hay, a bag of apples or other compostable food scraps on a residential lot or property where these items are not consistently being grown or produced for human consumption would be seen as an infraction to the bylaw.

NFL union wants fair investigation of Dolphins harassment Ste ven WineAssociated Press

MIAMI - The NFL Players Association said it will insist on a fair in-vestigation for all in-volved in the Miami Dolphins harassment case, including sus-pended guard Richie Incognito.

The league is investi-gating the relationship Incognito had with teammate Jonathan Martin, who left the team last week because of emotional issues. In-cognito was suspended indefinitely by coach Joe Philbin for his treat-ment of Martin.

“As the representa-tive organization of all players, the NFLPA will insist on a fair investiga-tion for all involved,” the union said in a state-ment Tuesday that in-cluded no condemna-tion of Incognito’s con-duct.

Instead, the union said accountability rest-ed with the Dolphins.

“We expect that the NFL and its clubs create a safe and professional workplace for all play-

ers, and that owners, executives, coaches and players should set the best standards and ex-amples,” the union said. “It is the duty of this union to hold the clubs ... accountable for safety and professionalism in the workplace. ... We will continue to remain in contact with the im-pacted players, their representatives and player leadership.”

Incognito, speaking publicly for the first time since his suspen-sion Sunday, was inter-viewed briefly by a re-porter for WSVN-TV.

“I’m just trying to weather the storm right now,” Incognito said be-fore getting into his car. “This will pass.”

Dolphins officials didn’t respond to re-quests for comment. The team practiced Tuesday for its game Monday night at Tampa Bay, but had no media availability.

Incognito’s harass-ment of Martin includ-ed text messages that were racist and threat-ening, two people fa-

miliar with the situation have said. The 6-foot-5, 312-pound Martin, a second-year pro, is bi-racial. Incognito, a guard in his ninth NFL season, is white.

The case leaves the 30-year-old Incognito’s career in doubt, and an associate professor at the University of Miami School of Law said he could face criminal charges.

“This can be pur-sued as an extortion case,” Tamara Lave said. “It could also be pur-sued as making some kind of threat against the other player’s life. ... This particular cultural moment is one in which people are very upset about bullying and haz-ing. ... I think that pros-ecutors may think it’s important for them to do something. And the fact that you have a 300-pound man who feels so threatened and un-comfortable that he leaves, that’s an indica-tion of how serious it was.”

No criminal investi-gation has been dis-

closed. Meanwhile, the NFL must decide whether the Dolphins failed to enforce the guidelines for work-place conduct included in the league’s player policy manual.

“All NFL players and prospective players have the right to work in a positive environment that is free from any and all forms of harassment, intimidation and dis-crimination,” the manu-al says. Every player re-ceives a copy during training camp.

Coach Joe Philbin said he was unaware of any harassment be-

tween the players until after Martin left the team. The Stanford graduate is with his family in Los Angeles for counselling, and it’s unclear whether he’ll rejoin the team this sea-son.

Also unclear is how other players would re-ceive Martin after he complained about a teammate and abruptly left while Miami was mired in a four-game losing streak. The Dol-phins shored up their depleted offensive line by signing David Arkin off the Dallas Cowboys’ practice squad.

“I hope that Martin doesn’t have any back-lash from this from the rest of his teammates,” said Arizona linebacker Karlos Dansby, who played for the Dolphins from 2010-12.

Dansby said he was puzzled that Martin’s teammates didn’t put a halt to any harassment.

“We’re like family. So why would we do some-thing to hurt our family? I don’t understand it. Definitely you have to step in and say some-thing. Unfortunately the guys didn’t step in down there. You got to have leaders step and up and

control that kind of situ-ation.”

Around the league, a handful of players had harsh words for Incog-nito, long considered one of the dirtiest play-ers in the NFL. Some players defended the tradition of hazing, while others said it needs to change.

Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll sup-ported the latter view.

“We don’t allow haz-ing here,” Carroll said. “In the past, yeah, I’ve seen it. It’s just an old-school way of thinking and a way of operating. We know better now.”

C anadian PreSS

LAKE PLACID, N.Y. - Bragging rights for the moment belong to Can-ada’s women’s hockey team, but there are far bigger stages to come against the rival Ameri-cans.

Natalie Spooner scored a power-play goal in the third period to break a 2-2 tie, and

Canada went on to beat the United States 4-2 at the Four Nations Cup on Wednesday.

Haley Irwin, Melodie Daoust and Brianne Jenner also scored for Canada, which im-proved to 2-0 at the tournament.

Genevieve Lacasse, who made 21 saves for Canada, said her team’s

physicality over-whelmed the Ameri-cans.

“I really think it’s our battling,” she said. “We were first to the puck in the corners and we were just battling hard along the boards. We weren’t scared to take a hit, we weren’t scared to give a hit. That really came a long way.”

Kelli Stack and Lynd-sey Fry each scored and Jessie Vetter stopped 24 shots for the U.S. (1-1) one day after they shelled Sweden 10-0.

The game came a day after forward Meghan Agosta-Mar-ciano was critical of the team’s forechecking in Canada’s 3-1 win over Finland.

Japan, the land of the rising sun, is an ex-perience in old and new, contrasts and

contradictions. Although it has not

recently been as popu-lar a tourist destination as in the past, it is defi-nitely worth a visit.

Technically, Japan is an archipelago of 6,852 islands, but the main four have 97 per cent of the 127 million popula-tion. Tokyo and its sub-urbs have over 30 mil-lion people.

Crowded as it is, peo-ple are very polite, quiet and orderly.

Although English is common in Tokyo, don’t expect to hear much of it in other centres, espe-cially in the north island of Hokkaido. Perfect your ‘konichiwa’ (hello) and your bow, and you should do fine!

Tokyo and surround-ing areas offer great sightseeing, from the Tokyo Tower (shaped like the Eiffel Tower), Imperial Plaza, Meiji Shrine, to closeby Mt. Fuji, Lake Ashi, to Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan, only a short bul-let train ride away. You could even spend some time at Tokyo Disney – the Japanese love Mick-ey Mouse!

As you wander through areas of the city, you will see the contradictions – the tra-ditional tea house, next to a skyscraper; the high tech electronic stores next to residential wooden shacks; the cute anime and manga (comics) for kids being sold next to graphic por-nography; and the beautiful cherry blos-som trees and serene rock gardens in the mid-dle of a busy financial district.

While in Japan, plan

Modern and traditional come together in Japan

SUBMITTED

Japan melds the old and new: a traditional Japanese structure overlooks Mount Fuji.

to experience some of the wonderful activities and sights that Japan is know for – sumo wres-tling, karaoke, pachinko (like pinball), origami and calligraphy, Bud-dhist and Shinto tem-ples, Geisha and kimo-nos, and baseball (Japa-nese LOVE baseball!).

There are a few other interesting things to ex-perience in Japan. Pub-lic bath houses – get

naked, get soaped and rinsed clean, then get into scalding water. Electric toilets – gadgets galore, such as seat warmers, various spray-ers, and air dryers. Vending machines – ev-erything from sushi to hot noodles to beer and hot coffee in a can.

Carry lots of cash be-cause North American credit cards are not widely accepted and

Japanese themselves pay for most things with a chip on their mobile phone. Wear shoes that can come off and on all the time, because you remove them whenever you enter most places. And one really nice touch – NO tipping! Jap-anese consider it an in-sult, as you are already paying for their impec-cable service.

The perfect time to

travel to southern Japan is the spring when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom and the weather is not too warm, or the fall when the co-

lours are also beautiful. Avoid the late summer typhoon season and though winter in the south is temperate, in the north island you will

encounter snow.For more informa-

PACIFIC COASTAL DIRECT FLIGHTS

BLACK FRIDAY COMES TO

CRANBROOKFri. November 22nd

hours, special promo-tions and special pric-ing. As a retailer, if you talk to the chamber in advance of the event you can receive free signage as well as tak-ing advantage of the ad-ditional benefits you can receive through the chamber for Black Fri-day. Please watch for a new website dedicated only to Black Friday in Cranbrook! A big thank you to Joey Hoechs-mann for chairing this event for the chamber and it continues to grow each year.

CHAMBER TURKEY DRIVE

Thurs. December 5thanother great example of how businesses and individuals in Cran-brook come together to support those in need. Jason Wheeldon is lead-ing this event for the Chamber as we strive to pass last year’s total fundraising of $27,000 in ONE day!!!! This is one of our favourite days of the year as all

proceeds go to the Cranbrook Food Bank and the Salvation Army during one of their busi-est times of the year.

BARRIERS TO BUSINESS

Throughout NovemberIf you have done busi-ness with the City of Cranbrook during the past year, or are cur-rently doing business with the City, the Chamber wants to hear from you. The Cham-ber has continued to en-courage the City to make changes to its processes, internal cul-ture and the implemen-tation and tracking of its economic develop-ment strategy to remove barriers to doing busi-ness in Cranbrook. If you are an existing or new business which has started or expanded your business in the past ten months, we want to hear how your e x p e r i e n c e w e n t . Please email myself ([email protected]) or the Chamber of-

fice. All respondents will be kept confiden-tial.

MOVEMBERThroughout November

One of the benefits of being the President of the Chamber and writ-ing a monthly newslet-ter is you get to self-promote the odd time. This is one of those times that I will take advantage of that op-portunity. During the month of November I will be taking part in this very worthwhile cause for Men’s Health. If you would like to support me as I raise funds for this and to check out a lovely pic-ture of me last year with my ‘stache please visit my Movember web page at www.mo-bro.co/mikeadams72 and donate to me or my JCI Kootenay team.

The Cranbrook and District Community Foundation – Our Website: a tool to tell Cranbrook’s story

Community stories build impact and leave a legacyTo help celebrate our 10th anniversary, the Cranbrook and District Community Foundation sought to improve and expand how we tell our story. This meant updating and expanding our website and brand. After all, communities, businesses, even social interaction, con-tinues to grow digitally and the Community Foundation envisioned that same growth and opportunity for itself.

To take these steps the Community Foundation turned to Genex Marketing for their local knowledge of digital storytelling and branding. Chris Botterill and his team worked dili-gently and imaginatively to create a new brand and website.

The Cranbrook and District Community Foundation had some big discussions about our values and the audience we wanted to reach. We knew we wanted something fresh, vibrant and truly energized, something reflective of the Cranbrook and District community.

At the same time, we wanted to stand confidently in the Cranbrook and District Communi-ty Foundation’s commitment to connecting donors with opportunities to support the local causes they care about, as well as responding to the changing needs of our community.

Our priority was to have a website with that same commitment. A commitment to two things:

1. Bridging donors to local charities and, 2. Responsiveness to Cranbrook’s challenges.

With its tech savvy approach, Genex Marketing let us know we also wanted to be built responsively in technological terms, meaning our website would look good on any device - tablets, smart phones and laptops alike.

Ultimately, our website needed to allow the Community Foundation to be able to attract and manage donations and do it for perpetuity. We needed the website to support our granting process and make it easier for charities to find information about our grants and the community engagement we do.

Through www.cranbrookcf.ca we have done that. We’ve made it simple and secure to give back to your community. The option for online giving allows you to contribute to any of our funds or community projects. The vibrant format allows for the ongoing work of local charities to be highlighted and celebrated. And for community charities looking for information about our grants we’ve made it easy to navigate.

Please visit us and learn how you can be a part of the Cranbrook and District Community Foundation story too!

preventative, natural approach to colds and � us through diet and lifestyle as well as supplements and herbal medicines. This month’s article will focus on a few of the things you can do to stay healthy through cold/� u season. Hygiene: Wash your hands frequently with soap and water – this is preferred to hand sanitizers.Diet and Lifestyle: Increase consumption of Vitamin C rich fruits and vegetables: organic peppers, lemons, organic berries, broc-coli, oranges, organic greens. Eat raw garlic and onions as both have anti-bacterial, anti-viral and immune modulating effects. Add them to salad dressing, soups or try to add near the end of cooking to get the most bene� t. Avoid re� ned carbohydrates which can inhibit immune func-tion. Ensure you are getting an adequate amount of sleep for your body (7-9 hours per night). Exercise at least 30 minutes daily and do one activity that helps relieve stress like journaling, yoga, meditation, deep breathing, stretching. If you are prone to sinus issues using a neti pot daily can help keep the nasal passages clear and prevent stagnation of � uids.Supplements/Herbal Medicine: Deep Immune is one of our favourite preventative treatments to support the immune system and it contains several herbs to � ght off infection and keep the immune system strong. Vitamin C + Bio� avonoids and Vitamin D can both to help enhance the immune system and keep it balanced. Multi strain probiotics can help replenish the good bacteria in the gut to balance the immune system.If you do get a cold remember these tips as well: If you are coughing or sneezing do it in to a bent arm rather than onto your hands as this prevents transmission. If you aren’t feeling well stay home from work and let your body rest and recover. Allow the body to experience a mild to moderate fever (1-3 degrees above normal 37.3°C) without suppressing it as this is the immune system working to help you feel better. Virafect is an anti-viral herbal tincture which can be a great treatment option for colds since most are caused by viruses. Oregano oil can be taken while you have a cold or � u but should not be taken daily as a preventative tactic as it can be liver toxic when taken long term. IV therapy can be helpful to enhance immune function and speed up recovery time by using a Myer’s cocktail (high dose B vitamins, Vitamin C, Calcium and magnesium) with added glycyr-rhizic acid (licorice extract) for anti-viral effects. Manuka or local, unpasteurized honey can help to soothe sore throats as well as adding anti-microbial effects to � ght infections. Living a healthy lifestyle by eating a diet full of whole foods, fruits and veggies, exercising regularly and managing stress are the best ways to keep the immune system functioning properly throughout the year to prevent illness.

A carpenter by trade and a hunter by obses-sion, Lister resident Rob Shatzko has published some of his life’s most memorable experiences in Unquenchable Spirit:

Twenty-five Years in Pursuit of Adventure.

The book chronicles Shatzko’s introduction to the rarified world of trophy hunting, and the development of a deep philosophy that comes only with long days and

nights alone in the wil-derness and more face-to-face meetings with death than one person should experience. It takes readers around the Pacific Northwest, into the Yukon and High Arctic, and across oceans to rarely heard of countries in Asia.

Shatzko is an adven-turer, a horseman, a loner, a student and a teacher. Now, in part-nership with his wife, Collette, he has become a writer. The book is published by Safari Press, which markets its publications directly to-ward hunters and out-doorsmen.

Shatzko started thinking about writing a book 10 years ago, after he survived his second attack by a grizzly bear.

“I thought this kind of stuff doesn’t happen to normal people,” he said. “I should start writ-ing it down.”

He didn’t, though.“I was busy with life,”

he laughed. “Then I re-

alized I was starting to forget stuff. They would come back when I looked at photos. But a mind is like a hard drive, I think. Eventually it gets full.”

It was on a six-week

Hawaiian vacation two years ago that he actual-ly sat down to record some of his many ad-ventures as a trophy hunter. He worked at the computer while his wife Colette, a profes-

sional writer, went for walks.

Or, as she wrote in the book’s preface: “And so I awake in paradise to the clackety-clack of Rob’s fingers on this new laptop. I shuffle downstairs in my zom-bie-like state, grab a cof-fee, shake my head at him hunched over the keyboard, his two index fingers poised over his keyboard, straight up and down, like twin sewing machine nee-dles. I go sit on the deck and listen to the birds and watch the cruise ships into the harbor. I walk and swim and enjoy the sun.

“Way too soon, Rob announced he has fin-ished another story.”

“I would write a chapter a day,” Shatzko said. “Then it would take Colette two days to edit it.”

Unquenchable Spirit takes the reader inside Shatzko’s head and helps one understand the need some have to

be on their own, to test themselves against na-ture while at the same time being part of it.

“I took a 24-day horseback trip this sum-mer — alone,” he said. “Sometimes it’s good to get out with others, but being alone is the best.”

Even for the non-hunter, Unquench-able Spirit  is a great read. Travelling vicari-ously with a man who has survived grizzly at-tacks, made death-defy-ing trips through white-water rapids and camped on a rapidly disintegrating chunk of ice in the Arctic Ocean, readers experience dan-ger, fear and exhilara-tion from the comfort of their home. They also get to meet and read chapters from Shatzko’s daughter, Cassidy, who has followed in her dad’s footsteps to be-come a renowned tro-phy hunter and staff writer for Woman Hunt-er magazine.

Modern technology combined with the ef-forts of Central Okana-gan Search and Rescue helped rescue a strand-ed ATVer on Little White Mountain south of Kelowna yesterday.

COSAR was dis-patched out at 3 p.m. Monday to launch a search effort for a male ATV rider,  who  was able to call for help due

to the fact he was very well equipped for the outdoors, not only car-rying a GPS but a satel-lite phone as well.

When the call came in, COSAR were able to pinpoint his exact loca-tion and respond with nine  members, two trucks, two ATVs and two snowmobiles.

Due to the time of day and the fact it gets dark an hour earlier, the COSAR search manager

requested the help of the RCMP helicopter as well.

The helicopter was dispatched to the area of the GPS coordinates while ground SAR mem-bers were on route.

The pilot was able to land and pick up the ATVer and return him to his truck.

The COSAR re-sponse effort was stood down at the halfway point of reaching area

where the ATVer was missing.

“Again, COSAR would like to remind everyone that is going into the back country to make sure they have a way of communicating if something happens or to make sure you let a friend or family mem-ber know where you are going and when you

will be back.  Please make sure you are equipped for extended stay in the back country if something happens, (like additional clothes, way to make a fire, extra food) and stay put.  Once we are called, we will come and get you,” said Duane Tresnich, vice-president of COSAR.

NORTH VANCOU-VER, B.C. — Mounties in North Vancouver, B.C., are looking for a suspect after a 53-year-old man was stabbed on a popular hiking trail.

Cpl. Richard De Jong says the victim was hik-ing up the B.C. Moun-taineering Club trail late Tuesday afternoon when he met an un-known male at the half-way mark.

De Jong says there was an unprovoked al-tercation between the two males, and the vic-tim was stabbed in the abdomen.

He says the suspect fled, and the victim struggled down the mountain where he was met by hikers who called emergency ser-vices.

De Jong says the vic-tim was taken to Lions Gate Hospital where he is being treated for what appears to be non-life-threatening in-juries.

Emergency re-sponse members, po-lice dogs and officers from the North Van-couver detachment have secured the area, and De Jong says they are looking for other potential victims.

SALT LAKE CITY — Paleon-tologists on Wednesday unveiled a new dinosaur discovered in the western state of Utah that proves giant tyrant dinosaurs like the Ty-rannosaurus rex were around 10 million years earlier than previ-ously believed.

A full skeletal replica of the carnivore — the equivalent of the great uncle of the T. rex — was on display at the Natural History Museum of Utah alongside a 3-D model of the head and a large painted mural of the dinosaur roaming a shoreline.

It was the public’s first glimpse at the new species, which re-searchers named Lythronax arg-estes. The first part of the name means “king of gore,’’ and the

second part is derived from poet Homer’s southwest wind.

The fossils were found in the Grand Staircase-Escalante Na-tional Monument in November 2009, and a team of paleontolo-gists spent the past four years digging them up and travelling the world to confirm they were from a new species.

Paleontologists believe the di-nosaur lived 80 million years ago in the late Cretaceous Period on a landmass in the flooded central region of North America.

The discovery offers valuable new insight into the evolution of the ferocious tyrannosaurs that have been made famous in mov-ies and captured the awe of school children and adults alike.

The new dinosaur likely was a bit smaller than the Tyrannosau-

rus rex but was otherwise similar, said Mark Loewen, a University of Utah paleontologist.

It was 7.3 metres long and 2.4 metres tall at the hip, and was covered in scales and feathers, Loewen said. Asked what the car-nivorous dinosaur ate, Loewen responded: “Whatever it wants.’’

The fossils were found by a seasonal paleontologist techni-cian for the Bureau of Land Management who climbed up two cliffs and stopped at the base of a third in the national monument.

The fossils were found in a southern Utah rock formation that also has produced the old-est-known triceratops, named “Diabloceratops,’’ and other dome-headed and armoured di-nosaurs.

NEW YORK — Treadmills for $33? Computer monitors for $9? The deals are too good to be true — even at Wal-Mart.

It turns out they’re not.Wal-Mart Stores Inc. says a “tech-

nical error’’ caused certain products to be priced absurdly low or high on its website Wednesday morning.

The company said it’s working to resolve the issue and that the site may have intermittent problems

with availability until then.“We apologize for any inconve-

nience to our customers,’’ said Ravi Jariwala, a spokesman for Wal-Mart’s online operations.

Earlier Wednesday, shoppers took to Twitter to cite ridiculously low prices like treadmills for $33.16 and Hewlett Packard LCD monitors for $8.85. Jariwala declined to com-ment on whether the retailer would honour bargains that customers scooped up and said it was still working through the details.

Construction crews have discovered the fossilized remains of a hadrosaur, a plant-eating duck-billed dinosaur that stalked the Earth about 68-million years ago.

c anadIan PressLEDUC, Alta. — It appears that

you can’t dig a deep hole in Alber-ta without finding a duck-billed dinosaur.

For the second time in weeks, construction crews have discov-ered the fossilized remains of a hadrosaur, a plant-eating creature that stalked the Earth about 68 million years ago.

The latest discovery happened in Leduc, a city south of Edmon-ton.

A crew helping to build a hous-ing development found the fossils six metres below the surface and called the Royal Tyrrell Museum to report the find. The crew then helped museum staff carefully re-move dirt and rock from the pre-historic buried treasure.

Museum curator Francois Therrien said this dinosaur was a teenager when it died and is about eight-metres-long.

He said the fact that much of the skeleton was found intact makes it an important find — no bones about it.

“When you walk in the bad-lands of southern Alberta when you find dinosaur bones, nine times out of 10 it will be from a duck-billed dinosaur,’’ he said Wednesday.

“But in terms of finding a complete skeleton — all the bones connected the way they were in life — that is really a rare discovery.’’

So far, the tail and hips of the beast are visible and the skull has been identified.

Last month a pipeline crew in northwestern Alberta uncovered the fossils of a larger and older hadrosaur, a dinosaur that was almost as common during the Cretaceous era as deer are today.

Hadrosaurs roamed over

much of western North America and grew up to 12 metres long.

The fossils are to be stored at the museum in Drumheller, Alta., for further study.

“It has been an incredible year for dinosaur finds,’’ said An-drew Neuman, executive direc-tor of the museum.

“This surge in fossil finds has supplemented are own work this field season due in part to in-creased awareness and diligence among industry and keen-eyed amateurs.’’

Swiss scientists have found evi-dence suggesting Yasser Arafat may have been poisoned by a radioactive substance, a TV station reported Wednesday, prompting new allega-tions by his widow that the Palestin-ian leader was the victim of a “shock-ing’’ crime.

Palestinian officials have long ac-cused Israel of poisoning Arafat, a claim Israel has denied. Arafat died under mysterious circumstances at a French military hospital in 2004, a month after falling ill at his Israe-li-besieged West Bank compound.

The findings reported Wednes-day appear to be the most significant so far in an investigation into Arafat’s death initiated by his widow, Suha, and the satellite TV station Al-Ja-zeera.

Last year, Switzerland’s Institute of Radiation Physics discovered trac-es of polonium-210, a deadly radio-active isotope, on some of Arafat’s belongings. Soil and bone samples were subsequently taken from Ara-fat’s grave in the West Bank.

On Wednesday, the station pub-lished the Swiss team’s 108-page re-port on the soil and bone samples. The results “moderately support the proposition that the death was the consequence of poisoning with po-lonium-210,’’ the report said.

Suha Arafat told Al-Jazeera she was shocked and saddened by the findings.

“It’s a shocking, shocking crime to get rid of a great leader,’’ she said.

CLEVELAND — One of three women held for a decade in a Cleve-land home says kidnapper Ariel Cas-tro took the “coward’s way out’’ when he died in prison in what was ruled as a suicide.

Michelle Knight spoke of being beaten, chained and sexually and emotionally abused in a taped inter-view that aired Wednesday on the “Dr Phil’’ show.

Knight was kidnapped in 2002,

when she was 20. She says Castro repeatedly told her that he could abuse her and nobody would care.

Knight cried at times during the interview and spoke about having five miscarriages in captivity. She says Castro punched and kicked her in the stomach.

Knight and the two other women escaped in May.

Castro was convicted. He was found hanging in prison about a month into his sentence.

Less than 1 gram of the silver pow-der is enough to kill. Polonium’s most famous victim was KGB agent-turned-Kremlin critic Alexander Lit-vinenko, who died in 2006 after the substance was slipped into his tea.

The examination of the Arafat’s remains found “unexpectedly high levels’’ of polonium-210, the Swiss team wrote.

Derek Hill, a professor in radiolog-ical science at University College London, said the levels of poloni-um-210 cited in the report seem “way above normal.’’

He said polonium is “kind of a perfect poison’’ because it is so hard to detect unless experts look for it using specialized equipment general-ly found only in government labora-tories.

Dear Annie: My husband and I are in our 80s. We have three wonderful kids, all mar-ried, who live nearby. We have always been close. The problem is, one son thinks I am trying to control him. He never tells us when he is planning to go out of town. If we can’t reach him for days, we worry. He rarely answers his cellphone on vacation, and when he does pick up, he gets angry. We believe, out of respect for us, he should give us a quick call letting us know where they are headed and when they arrive so we won’t worry. It’s not like we would call them on their vacation. I am certain that his wife, whom we also love, texts or uses Facebook to let her family know where they are. Are we unreasonable? He rarely calls us even when he is in town. We see him once every two weeks when he stops by for a few minutes. We don’t require any assistance from him, financial or otherwise. I know he reads your column faithfully, so we would greatly value your opinion. -- Concerned Mother Dear Mother: Some children understand a parent’s fears and will call regularly, not only so Mom and Dad don’t worry, but also to check and make sure the parents are OK. But not all kids think this way. Your son in-terprets this as “controlling,” although that is not the intent. He otherwise seems to be a good son, so please try to compromise. Some people avoid phone calls because they require an actual conversation. Perhaps he or his wife would be willing to send a group text or email to both sides of the fam-ily, including you or one of your other chil-dren, who could then let you know he’s out of town. Ask whether this would work better for him. (Facebook is not a good way to do this -- strangers can learn that your house is unoccupied.) Dear Annie: I have worked in an emergen-cy department for 30 years. Please tell your readers not to call their local emergency room for medical advice. They cannot see your ankle injury, evaluate your potential heart attack, or determine whether you are having a stroke or whether your laceration needs stitches. Please do not curse at the ER employee on the phone when they explain this to you. They are doing this for your own good. Do not call your local emergency rooms and ask whether they are busy. If you have time to get on the phone and “hospital shop,” your emergency must not be all that urgent. Do not call your local emergency room and ask how long their wait is. They are an emergency room, not your local restau-rant. Thank you. -- No Name, Please Dear No Name: We appreciate your com-ments. Please, folks, they are called “emer-gency rooms” for a reason. Dear Annie: I can relate to “Lonely for Friends.” I am 42 years old and happily mar-ried. I, too, have had trouble making friends for as long as I can remember. I have had only two close friends in my entire life. I consider myself an introvert. I get along well with many people, but it never becomes more than an acquaintanceship. I was in a needlework group for 15 years and never truly fit in. I am involved in my church, but have not made any friends. I suspect it may have to do with reading body language. I can’t interpret the signals I’m getting and don’t realize when I need to make the next move. Counseling didn’t supply any revelations. Over time, I have come to enjoy being alone. I love my husband’s company, but I some-times wish I had someone to go shopping with. -- Not Quite Lonely in Virginia Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Charles, Nelson “Charlie” Somerville

December 9, 1932 - November 2, 2013

Charles was born in Sarnia, Ontario on December 9, 1932 and passed away at the age of 80 on November 2, 2013 in Cranbrook, BC. He passed away peacefully with his family at his side after a lengthy illness.

Charles was a loving, caring husband, father and grandfather. He will be sadly missed. He was a wonderful mentor and example to his family and friends.

Charles is survived by his loving wife of 57 years Dorothy; his children Brad (Colette), Stephanie Forsberg (Carl), Heather Kendrick (Dan), Les (Kim), Mark (Margot); his grandchildren Dawn, Steven, Dani, Sheena, Joey, Alex, Ben, Elliot, Hailey, Harry, Spencer, Emma and Abbey; his great grandchildren Eric, Damon, Mickey, Dotty and Ella.

Special thanks to the nurses and doctors on the 2nd floor and ICU, and the nursing staff on the 3rd floor.

A celebration of Charles’ life will be held on Sunday, November 10th at 2 p.m. at the Cranbrook Alliance Church.

PURDY, Austin David 1936 - 2013

Austin David Purdy was born to David and Gertrude Purdy at Wynot, Saskatchewan on January 4th, 1936. He will be sadly missed by his surviving son Craig, granddaughter Chelsea, great grandson Caden and siblings, Oscar [Merlene] of Fruitvale, Kathleen [Jaakko} Levanaho of Creston, Carmen [Carol]

of Cranbrook, Lorne [Brenda] of Genelle,  Sharon Halifax and Blaine of Kimberley and several nieces and nephews.  Austin is predeceased by his son Kevin and parents David and Gertrude Purdy.

Austin’s parents moved to Trail, BC in 1941 and to Fruitvale in 1943 where Austin received his schooling, was married and had two sons. Most of his working years were spent as a surveyor in various locations throughout British Columbia, including the Creston-Salmo Skyway.

He enjoyed hunting and fishing and playing the guitar at family functions.

Austin passed away at Fort Steele on Saturday, October 26, 2013.  There will be a private service for family and close friends at Mark Memorial Funeral Home, 2024 Industrial Road #2 on Friday, November 8, 2013 at 1:00 p.m.  Condolences may be left for the family at www.markmemorial.com

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper

1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Elk Valley Water Quality Plan Consultation Open Houses

Teck is working with communities, First Nations and governments to create an Elk Valley Water Quality Plan that will maintain the health of the watershed and support continued, sustainable mining in the Elk Valley.

We Want to Hear From You

The objective of the Elk Valley Water Quality Plan is to stabilize and reverse the increasing trend of selenium and other substances related to mining activity in the watershed. The process to develop the plan will include three formal public consultation periods, with the first period taking place from October 28 to November 29. Further public consultation periods will take place in 2014.

We are asking for your feedback on the framework we are using to develop the Elk Valley Water Quality Plan. Your input during this public consultation period is an important part of the development of the Plan. More information and an online feedback form are available at www.teck.com/ElkValley

Consultation Open Houses:

You are invited to learn more, provide your input and ask questions at a public open house in your community:
