DIGITAL MAMMOGRAPHY
Campaign hits fundraising target sooner than expected BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff

Women in the region will soon have a clearer picture to aid in early detection and diagnosis of breast diseases. The Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (KBRH) Health Foundation has reached its goal of raising funds to replace its 11-year-old film mammography machine with a digital mammography with stereotactic capabilities. Since May 2011, the health foundation has received widespread support for its campaign, and had hoped to reach its $950,000 goal by May of this year. However, the campaign reached the finish line two months earlier. “As often happens with technology, the price has gone down” said Lisa Pasin, director of development at the KBRH hospital foundation. “The new technology will now cost $790,000 which is why we can wrap up the campaign early.” Last week, the foundation received a $20,000 contribution from the Royal Bank of Canada foundation and $5,000 from the Kootenay Robusters, which pushed the campaign to its goal sooner than projected
explained Pasin. A mammography exam is used to aid in the early detection and diagnosis of breast diseases in women, a process that is expedited with digital equipment. Securing the state-of-the-art machine will benefit patients in local communities because this advancement in diagnostic imagining means fewer invasive procedures to confirm diagnosis of breast cancer and less travel outside the area for patients and their families to confirm a diagnosis of breast cancer, said Pasin. She explained that positive outcomes can also be expected post procedure, and include: a faster recovery, with less post surgical complications; better cosmetic results with no stitches and less scarring. As the biopsy will be done in the mammography room, and not the operating room (OR), reduced wait lists for breast biopsies and other surgical procedures is another bonus of the new digital imaging techniques. “OR wait lists at KBRH should be reduced as surgical time will no longer be spent on diagnostic breast biopsies,” she added.

B.C. SENIOR CURLING CHAMPIONSHIPS
Husband and wife lead respective teams to nationals BY GUY BERTRAND Times Staff
It was hard for one not to watch the other but in the end both Craig and Karin Lepine kept their eyes focused on the task at hand. Saturday afternoon at the Trail Curling Club, Mr. and Mrs. Lepine from Langley took home his and hers gold medals from the B.C. senior curling
championship. Karin Lepine kept the Brenda Ridgway rink from Nanaimo in check to score a 9-5 win in the senior women’s final. Meanwhile, on the adjacent sheet, Craig Lepine broke up a tight defensive battle with three in the ninth en route to a 5-2 win over the Tom Shypitka rink from Cranbrook, which included Trail’s Don Freschi and
Fruitvale’s Bill King. Now the championship couple will represent B.C. at the Canadian Senior Curling Championships in Summerside P.E.I. from March 16 to 24. Once the medals were handed out, the winning couple admitted it was tough not glancing over at their partner’s match. “I looked over in the ninth and he got three so I must have
been lucky,” said Karin Lepine. “But I was really focused on my game because I knew the Ridgway rink would be tough.” Craig Lepine said he often catches glimpse of the action on other sheets but admitted he took a little extra glance at his wife’s match. There really wasn’t much to watch on either side as both See LEPINES, Page 13

Trails society makes pitch to council By Arne Petryshen Rossland News
City hall was packed with trails supporters during last week’s city council meeting. The Kootenay Columbia Trail Society (KCTS) had put out a call to the supporters when the city left the $19,000 it receives off a draft budget for 2013. The huge group of at least 70 people was happy to hear support from council on the issue, as the funding being left off was attributed to council’s wish to get a better idea of the Columbia Avenue projects cost by way of leaving empty line items. Isaac Saban, president of the KCTS, presented council with an in-depth report on the benefits the trails bring to Rossland and the greater area. The KCTS manages 145 km of non-motorized trail in the Rossland area. “That is the tip of the iceberg, in terms of what it takes to support those trails. The amount of effort that goes in behind it is enormous,” he said. “Those 145 km of trails are located 90 per cent on private land.” The KCTS has 28 land access agreements, one which is with the government to operate on Crown land. “So we’re dealing with 27 different organizations, from either individuals, who may own a small lot that has 100 metres of trail across it, but without that 100 metres, you don’t have the other 5 km of trail… all the way through to corporations like Teck Metals,” he said. Saban noted the intricacies that the society takes on when dealing with a company like Teck. “When we’re dealing with Teck, we’re dealing with two lawyers, their local lawyer and their corporate lawyer in Vancouver, we’re
dealing with paralegal, their manager, we’re dealing with a manager of lands, we’re dealing with outside consultants who are offering environmental advice.” Saban said in those 27 agreements, the society deals with 150 different people. For landowners, there is not really any incentive to offer the land, rather they take on risk. The incentives are in the public image and the ability to offer the use for the public good. The KCTS offers an insurance liability policy in exchange for the risk that the landowner takes on. He estimated all together the KCTS volunteers put in 3,500 hours a year. Were they to build the network from scratch, he estimate the cost at $2.25 million. They also estimated 120,000 users on the trails per year. Coun. Kathy Wallace noted that on top of the $19,000, Rossland also pays $11,000 into the KCTS through the regional district. “I have been a supporter and I will continue to be a supporter,” Wallace said, adding that she uses the trails herself. “I think there was a little bit of misunderstanding that reached out to the community, because that budget that had been presented had empty line items in it. It was really a way for council to understand the potential offsetting of the Columbia Ave project. There were no decisions made at that point in time.” Wallace said that the trails are a part of the community. Mayor Greg Granstrom said that having so many show up is a visual reminder to council of the importance of the trails in the community. “Council is, I believe, very aware of the value of the trails to the city, I don’t think there is any question of that in our minds.”
CAstlegar
Search on for missing teen
CASTLEGAR –The family of a 19-yearold Castlegar man are seeking the public’s assistance in locating him. Jessie Wright went missing around 1:30 p.m. on February 16, according to a widely circulated poster that has been shared by
more than 500 people on Facebook. It’s believed the man, who was upset when he went missing, could be in Nelson or elsewhere in the Kootenays. He was last reported to have been seen heading north on foot in Castlegar, along
Columbia Avenue. Wright is described as tall and slim with a buzzed head of blond hair. His family and police are searching for him. Anyone with information regarding the young man’s whereabouts should call Castlegar RCMP at 250-365-7721.

Seated in her diagnostic room at KBRH, Doctor Elsabe Steenkamp, director of radiology, explained that digital stereotactic mammography will offer women of the West Kootenay access to state-ofthe-art mammography.
Foundation has raised over $10 million FROM PAGE 1 Stereotactic biopsy capabilities mean that a patient may be able to have a needle biopsy instead of invasive surgery to diagnose a breast lump. “With the digital technique, image manipulation will minimize the recall rate and improve diagnostic quality with a lower radiation dose,” said Elsabe Steenkamp, director of radiology at KBRH. “Patients can have mammmographic guided biopsy without the need for surgery or anesthesia on an out-patient basis.” Additionally, digital mammography produces high-resolution images that can be sent electronically to another facility when a second opinion is needed from other radiologists, surgeons or oncologists. “Specialists’ opinions are now only a click
away,” said Pasin. “When a second opinion is required, the images can be sent electronically and instantly.” Formerly called the Trail Regional Hospital Foundation, since 1988 the Health Foundation has raised over $10.6 million to advance health care in the Kootenay Boundary. The Foundation’s revenue is generated through donations from private and corporate donors. Funding priorities include raising endowed gifts and annual funds to support health care equipment needs, staff education, and special initiative to enhance health care through the Trail hospital and other Kootenay Boundary health care facilities. The next campaign focus will be announced by the foundation in March.
Christina Lake
Unattended transfer stations to be closed By Karl Yu
Grand Forks Gazette
Unattended waste transfer stations at Texas Point and McRae Creek Road at Christina Lake on the East Lake Road right-of-way will close May 1. Alan Stanley, Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) director of environmental services, made the announcement last Thursday at an Area C town hall meeting and cited a number of concerns for nine such transfer stations
across the RDKB, including the fact that some were illegal. “We started doing our due diligence and looking into these transfer stations and what we found is, to everyone’s amazement, is that we actually had no permits to be on any of these nine unattended transfer stations.” Stanley said that generally there is permitting for pipes and sewers within a right-ofway, not an unattended garbage bin area.
“We went through every one of our sites and found just absolute nightmares in terms of public and staff health and safety. “We found things like propane tanks thrown into the bottom of the bin with car batteries thrown on top of them and this was ongoing and these sites were cleaned up on average two, sometimes three times a week,’ Stanley explained. “It was just this ongoing maintenance issue.”

Provincial Massive fire
Penticton
Riding seeks candidates By Steve KDid
Penticton Western News
January was a tumultuous month for provincial politics in the Boundary-Similkameen riding, but voters there will have to wait a while longer to discover what their options will be in the upcoming May provincial elections. Oliver councillor Linda Larson was confirmed as the B.C. Liberal candidate in late January, replacing MLA John Slater, who resigned from the Liberal caucus on Jan. 14 after the party refused to endorse his nomination papers. NDP candidate Marji Basso resigned her candidacy a week later. While the B.C. NDP has Dick Cannings and the Liberals have Dan Ashton confirmed as their
candidates in the Penticton riding, Larson is the only confirmed candidate in Boundary-Similkameen at present. “It is rather a strange position to be in at the moment,” said Larson. “But I am hoping there is opposition, simply because I think it’s healthy.” The NDP is back to reviewing possible candidates for BoundarySimilkameen, according to party spokesman Michael Roy. He is not ready to say who has come forward, or when there will be a nomination meeting in the riding. The provincial Green Party is still conducting a candidate search, both in Boundary Similkameen and the Penticton Riding. The B.C. Conservative party is at a similar stage.
Burnaby
Board contemplates two-week break By Wanda Chow
Burnaby NewsLeader
Burnaby school district is moving ahead with public consultations on the idea of a two-week spring break. A two-week spring break would save the district about $250,000 a year, savings which are “fairly modest,” she said. Then again, the district has projected shortfalls of $6.6 million for 2013-2014 and $7.6 million for $2014-2015 which need to be considered. The district has had conversations with the District Parent Advisory Council and partner
groups, and now has an online survey people can use to provide input. A public forum on the issue will be held Thursday. Burnaby and New Westminster are the only districts in Metro Vancouver which still have one-week spring breaks. Despite the cost savings, Narang stressed that the main reason the two-week break is being considered is its impact on families. With many parents and teachers working in different municipalities from where they live or where their children attend school, the different schedules can pose challenges when scheduling family vacations or time off.

Bell’s doctor discovered an aneurysm last fall in one of the arteries connecting to his heart. The condition is typically a bulge in the blood vessel that indicates weakness of the wall. If it bursts it is fatal. Bell said Monday his condition is being closely monitored, and he may need surgery if the aneurysm grows larger. But for now he is continuing his work and exercise schedule as usual, and he plans to campaign for the next B.C. Liberal candidate in his constituency. He said his condition is likely inherited, and not related to the stress of his job. As forests minister he led numerous trade missions to Asia to develop markets for B.C. lumber, and has continued a similar pace in his current role.

Court battles begin over mandatory sentences
THE CANADIAN PRESS/Graham Hughes.
Protesters opposing language Bill 14 demonstrate outside the office of Quebec Premier Pauline Marois in Montreal, Sunday.
Quebec
Language law debate heating up again THE CANADIAN PRESS MONTREAL English-rights activists in Quebec are raising concerns about a proposed new language law they say infringes on their rights. The new law is intended to build on Quebec’s landmark language legislation, Bill 101, to strengthen French language in the province. But protesters, who gathered outside Premier Pauline Marois’ office on Sunday, say they feel under attack by the Parti Quebecois government. The group is worried about new rules designed to encourage French in small businesses, municipalities and post-secondary education. Many waved Canadian flags and wore toques featuring the Maple Leaf as they stood on a frigid
downtown street corner. As the demonstration wound down, the protesters broke into a rendition of O Canada. “We still belong to the country of Canada and we still have our rights,” said Christopher Rose . “There shouldn’t be any quarrels here in Quebec... There’s nothing wrong with being bilingual, there’s nothing wrong with English, and there’s nothing wrong with French either.” Language tensions bubbled to the surface during last summer’s provincial election campaign when the PQ vowed to make major changes to Quebec language laws. The unrest reached a twisted climax in a shooting at the PQ election victory party in September that left one person dead. A man arrested at the scene declared that anglophones were

Newborn moves after declared dead THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - A pair of Toronto police officers are being credited for helping save a newborn who had been declared dead. It happened after the mother went into labour while walking to a hospital Sunday morning and gave birth on the sidewalk in freezing cold weather. Paramedics rushed the mother and baby girl to hospital, where the child was declared dead. Police, who were standing over the baby until the coroner arrived, noticed the sheet covering it’s body move. They found a pulse and alerted doctors. The baby is now listed in stable condition.
waking up as he was led away. The language law that eventually got tabled is considerably milder than the measures the PQ campaigned on. It will be subject to a public consultation in March. Still, some of the stricter rules have English-language defenders worried. Bill 14 would make it more difficult for municipalities with an English population under 50 per cent to maintain bilingual status. The PQ’s law would also extend rules for French in the workplace to small businesses with between 26 and 49 employees,
and make it harder for students from the French education system to attend English junior-colleges. A n t o i n e t t e Mercurio, who runs a Montreal travel agency, said the rules will make it harder to run her business and hurt her bottom line. “Everything will have to be in French now, and it’ll be very costly for small businesses here in Quebec,” she said. One native French speaker, Steve Theberge of Quebec City, said he made the trip to the Montreal protest to show his support. He said the government should be encouraging bilingualism, not just French.
THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - A small group of people might be harmed by mandatory minimum sentences for gun crimes, but Parliament is entitled to deference in how it tries to enhance public safety, the federal government argues. The point is one of many Ottawa is making in support of the thorny issue of mandatory minimums, as Ontario’s highest court gets set to hear a number of landmark cases. A special five-judge panel of the Court of Appeal for Ontario will consider the constitutionality of minimum sentences for several gun-crime laws in six cases that are set to be heard together from Tuesday to Friday. The mandatory minimums were struck down in one case and upheld in the rest - though narrowly in one - and hearing all of them at the same time gives the court the opportunity to send a uniform message in a currently fragmented landscape. Ontario’s attorney general has carriage of the prosecution of these cases, but the federal government is adding its voice to the fight as an intervener. The Canadian Civil Liberties Association, the African Canadian Legal Clinic and the
John Howard Society are also intervening. The Department of Justice arguments, as laid out in court documents, focus on the three-year mandatory minimum sentence for unlicensed possession of a loaded restricted or prohibited gun - weapons such as handguns, machineguns and sawed-off shotguns. The penalty, enacted in 2008 as part of a Conservative omnibus crime bill, raised the minimum sentence from one year. An Ontario Superior Court judge struck down the law last year as unconstitutional, ruling that it constituted cruel and unusual punishment for Leroy Smickle, who was caught alone in his boxers in his cousin’s apartment posing with a loaded handgun while taking pictures of himself to post on Facebook. Critics in the legal community say mandatory minimums don’t reduce crime and do more harm than good.
The government concedes in court documents that one of the potentially harmful effects of the law is that a “small number of offenders” will have to spend longer in prison than they would without the three-year minimum. In its court documents Ottawa details the rules and regulations surrounding gun ownership, particularly the very strictly regulated handguns. “Licensing and registration of restricted and prohibited firearms serve an important public safety function because police have ready access to records kept in the Canadian Firearms Registry,” the government lawyers wrote. “This allows police to know whether or what kind of registered firearm might be present at a given place.” That argument is one that was used by police chiefs in support of keeping the long-gun registry, which the Tories scrapped last year.

Province’s gas boom is real, all right
W
hether Christy Clark’s government survives the May election or not, the natural gas “Prosperity Fund” idea floated in last week’s throne speech is a useful one. B.C. is poised to join Alberta in the upper rank of energy producing jurisdictions, with an expanding network of natural gas collection, refining and processing into liquid (LNG) for export. Clark’s pre-election throne speech proposed a resource fund similar to Alberta’s Heritage Fund that would be reserved for debt reduction and major projects, rather than spent on programs, which tends to happen under the political pressure of four-year election cycles. Opposition politicians and media commentators have dismissed this as a pre-election stunt. They note that the LNG industry in B.C. doesn’t exist yet, and may never pro-
duce the hundreds of billions of dollars projected over the next 30 years. I returned for a visit to B.C.’s northeast earlier this month, and I can tell you the gas boom is real. My parents homesteaded east of Dawson Creek near the Alberta border in 1962, and I recall when our farm was drilled for gas by Gulf Canada 40 years ago. Many more gas wells have been drilled since then, and country roads have been widened and numbered for industrial traffic. Hydraulic fracturing, already in use when our farm was drilled, has been combined with directional drilling to open up huge new supplies. A farming community called Montney is the latest hot play, yielding not only shale gas but petroleum liquids, which are valuable for diluting heavy oil among other things. B.C. has never seen this kind of international investment interest

before. Initial projects have been joined by global players such as British Gas, and Mitsubishi, a key player in Japan’s replacement of its devastated nuclear power program. Spectra Energy, which operates one of North America’s biggest gas processing plants at Fort Nelson and has another one under construction nearby, has begun work on a third plant near Dawson Creek. Spectra and British Gas have also proposed the latest of several pipelines, to move all this gas to an LNG terminal at Prince
Rupert. The KitimatPrince Rupert region now has at least five proposed terminals, with investors including Shell, Chevron, ExxonMobil and state players from China and Korea. All this is happening as shale gas is developed across the United States as well. As with oil, Canada is a captive of the U.S. market, and the flood of new gas supply has the North American price at rock bottom. At least B.C. hopes it’s the bottom. Gas royalties passed forest income to the B.C. treasury many years ago, and now as the forest industry struggles to recover, the province faces tumbling revenues from gas. Why would B.C.’s shale gas be seen as a priority for new global investment in LNG? For one thing, we’re a stable democratic country with a mature industry and competent regulation. Secondly, the shipping
advantage of the Kitimat and Prince Rupert ports to the Pacific Rim has finally been recognized internationally, as coal, forest products, grain and container traffic has climbed in recent years. B.C. has another advantage that appears to be increasingly important. The shale gas deposits are deep, under a kilometre or more of solid rock, and most are in remote, sparsely inhabited locations. That adds cost to the pipeline system, but it has a benefit. At the beginning of the year I predicted that the international protest movement that dishonestly targets Alberta oil would soon turn to demonizing natural gas. That pseudo-scientific attack has begun, right here in B.C. I’ll have more on that in a subsequent column. Tom Fletcher is legislative reporter and columnist for Black Press and BCLocalnews.com

Letters & Opinion Letters to the editor
School cutbacks should start at the top
Last Tuesday’s school board meeting did little to answer why another school is being closed in the district. When referring to cuts needing to be made, the chair compared it to removing body parts, but no mention was made of cutting at the ‘head’. I have had no reply to my previously written question of whether the number of administration positions could be cut to save salaries, pensions, etc. On Tuesday the chair admitted no direct administration staff would be reduced at RSS but he said some counsellors would be cut…however, with grades 10-12 joining Crowe, obviously those same counsellors will be needed at Crowe, so no money saved (?) I am not wanting teaching/counselling staff cut…I am referring to the fact that currently we have a reduced number of students from 20 or 30 years ago and yet the ‘heads’ of departments’ administrative staff have increased. The decision to cut another school was too quick to allow trustees to even consider the calmly made, rational sugges-
tions from Rosslanders. If they quickly sell the MacLean building, instead of short-term leasing or renting it…they will be making an irreversible decision. There is the nearly empty middle school and empty elementary school in Sunningdale available for purchase. Near the end of floor questions, that evening, it was clarified that while the offending bylaw had been passed, it could still be rescinded at a later date if funding is found. I urge trustees to look at the costs going to salaries of the district office staff and make cuts there. If the prepayment for lease of current board office space in Fortis building ($914,888 plus interest) is returned to the district in September perhaps some could be used for the budget and the offices relocated in under used schools. Rosslanders are finally being made aware of huge city staff salaries and the fact that our city functioned better before these new positions were created. Cuts to both city staffing and school district offices
could result in more funding for MacLean. The school board could try submitting a deficit budget (as courageous other school boards are attempting) until the election and pressure is brought on governments for more funding. If our provincial government has $11-12 million to support the movie industry, surely they can better support education. Mine was a one-income, now retired family, but I would personally support a higher municipal tax to keep K-12 in Rossland. Rossland already sacrificed for the whole district, by reducing to only one elementary and one senior school, but now the idiotic choice to bus a whole senior school down the hill, keeps me awake at night. Every community has already had to make drastic cuts…I am questioning why those cuts were not made in administration staff and other ways, rather than closing schools. Show us the figures to support your arguments, so reasonable discussion can continue. Carol Albo Rossland
Get Canada’s oil to the thirsty markets
An editorial from the Waterloo Region Record As rich as Canada is, it would be richer still if it could get more of its oil to market. Its glaring inability to do so because of inadequate pipeline infrastructure - cost the national economy $19 billion last year alone, or the equivalent of $1,200 for every Canadian, the CIBC reports. And while this may be a source of glee for those who denounce the indisputable environmental harm caused by Alberta’s oilsands, it should, in fact, worry them and us all. That $19 billion could have done a lot of good, whether in boosting private sector jobs or giving governments cash to build roads, hospitals and schools. And unless something is done soon, similar revenues will be lost every year - for years to come. The failure of Canada, which boasts the world’s third largest proven oil reserves, to sell more of such a valuable and soughtafter commodity is a national embarrassment. It is also one of the most urgent challenges facing not only the federal government but the entire federation. And after American
President Barack Obama’s state of the union speech this week, the challenge became even harder to meet. The Conservative government has worked hard to earn a reputation for being a wise and capable manager of the economy. Forging new trade connections with Asia and Europe has been a long-standing goal. Getting Canadian oil to market must now be an even greater priority. Considering how much pollution comes out of the United States, and considering a similar threat has not been sent to the world’s biggest greenhouse gas polluters, the Chinese, the messages from Obama and Jacobsen are galling. It would be folly, however, to ignore them. To be sure, considerable progress has been made in running the oilsands operations more cleanly. Harper has to broadcast that good news south of the border. But more than a smooth public relations campaign is required. The federal government must identify what improvements still need to be made. The proposal to build the Northern Gateway pipeline, to
carry Alberta oilsands bitumen to the Pacific Coast and tankers bound for China, has provoked bitter opposition from First Nations communities, environmentalists and British Columbia politicians, including Premier Christy Clark whose demands seem no more principled than wanting a bigger cut of any oil revenues. Many observers think the plan is dead. Yet optimists who dream of sending Alberta oil and bitumen east, through Ontario and Quebec, then on to New Brunswick, need a reality check. That pipeline couldn’t be built for at least four more years and approval from Quebec’s separatist Premier Pauline Marois can’t be taken for granted. Increasingly, the future of Canada’s oil sales and the national economy will rely on more than the federal government. They will depend on Canadians who, through their support and votes, will determine what the politicians do and where the oil flows. Canadians need to ask themselves what they want. Then they must prepare to live with the economic consequences of their answer.

Mindy McCready
Hot idea for cool event
Country singer dies at age 37 THE ASSOCIATED PRESS HEBER SPRINGS, Ark. - Perhaps there was one heartbreak too many for Mindy McCready. The former country star apparently took her own life on Sunday at her home in Heber Springs, Ark. Authorities say McCready died of a suspected self-inflicted gunshot to the head and an autopsy is planned. She was 37, and left behind two young sons. McCready had attempted suicide at least three times since 2005, as she struggled to cope amid a series of tumultuous public events that marked much of her adult life. Speaking to The Associated Press in 2010, McCready smiled wryly while talking about the string of issues she’d dealt with over the last half-decade. “It is a giant whirlwind of chaos all the time,” she said of her life. “I call my life a beautiful mess and organized chaos. This time it seems the whirlwind overwhelmed McCready. Her death comes a month after that of David Wilson, her longtime boyfriend and the father of her youngest son. He is believed to have shot himself on the same porch of the home they shared in Heber Springs, a small vacation community about 65 miles north of Little Rock. His death also was investigated as a suicide. Melinda Gayle McCready arrived in Nashville in 1994 still in her teens with tapes of her karaoke vocals and earned a recording contract with BNA Records. She had a few memorable moments professionally, scoring her first No. 1 hit almost immediately. “Guys Do It All the Time,” a self-assured dig at male chauvinism, endeared her to female fans in 1996. She also scored a hit with “Ten Thousand Angels,” and her album of that title sold 2 million copies. Beyond that, though, she’s mostly remembered for a string of dramatic moments as she spent the next 15 years chasing another huge hit.
Mark DAvid Chapman
Lennon murderer’s letters for sale
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - Letters from John Lennon’s killer detailing his obsession with the novel “The Catcher in the Rye” to the police officer who arrested him went on sale Monday through a Los Angeles auction house. The four missives from Mark David Chapman to Stephen Spiro are for sale through Moments In Time, which specializes in historical documents and rare autographs, at a fixed price of $75,000, auction house owner Gary Zimet said. Zimet is selling the letters on behalf of Spiro, who arrested Chapman on Dec. 8, 1980, shortly after he shot Lennon outside The Dakota, the ex-Beatle’s Manhattan apartment building. The letters are typed and signed by Chapman. They were written over several months in 1983, after he had pleaded guilty and been sentenced to 20 years to life in prison. Chapman, 57, was denied parole in August for the seventh time.

Jerry Buss
Sports owner lived the Hollywood dream
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Jerry Buss, the Los Angeles Lakers’ playboy owner who shepherded the NBA team to 10 championships from the Showtime dynasty of the 1980s to the Kobe Bryant era, died Monday. He was 80. He died at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, said Bob Steiner, his assistant. Buss had been in hospital for most of the past 18 months while undergoing cancer treatment, but the immediate cause of death was kidney failure, Steiner said. With his condition worsening in recent weeks, several prominent former Lakers visited Buss to say goodbye. “The NBA has lost a visionary owner whose influence on our league is incalculable and will be felt for decades to come,” NBA commissioner David Stern said. “More importantly, we have lost a dear and valued friend.” Under Buss’s leadership since 1979, the Lakers became Southern California’s most beloved sports franchise and a worldwide extension of Hollywood glamour.

Today we mourn the loss and celebrate the life of a man who helped shape the modern landscape of sports in L.A.” Johnson and fellow Hall of Famers Abdul-Jabbar and Worthy formed lifelong bonds with Buss during the Lakers’ run to five titles in nine years in the 1980s, when the Lakers earned a reputation as basketball’s most exciting team with their flamboyant Showtime style. The buzz extended throughout the Forum, where Buss used the Laker Girls, a brass band and promotions to keep Los Angeles fans interested in all four quarters of their games. Courtside seats, priced at US$15 when he bought the Lakers, became the hottest tickets in Hollywood - and they still are, with fixture Jack Nicholson and many other celebrities attending every home game.

UsedKootenays.com
Local resource available for online classifieds
Kirsten Hildebrand Black Press
Looking for a job, a new car, maybe trying to get rid of an old set of bunk beds; or are you a collector? UsedKootenays.com is a resource not to be overlooked. With the rise of online classified sites such as Kijiji or Craigslist, UsedKootenays.com offers up an alternative that aims to connect with the community offline that it’s bringing together online. “We actually have a genuine concern and care for the communities we serve,” says Erin Richards, Marketing Coordinator for UsedKootenays. com, which is also owned by Black Press. Black Press is the largest publisher of community newspapers in B.C. and has newspapers in every community in the Kootenay region. Recently, all of the Kootenay Black Press titles began running all of its print classified
ads on UsedKootenays. com. “We feel this is a great value for our customers and makes Black Press the best option when it comes to placing classified advertising throughout the Kootenays,” said Chuck Bennett, Group Publisher for Black Press in the Kootenays. “We are really excited about this opportunity for us to grow our business in this area, but more importantly, this is good for
our customers.” This partnership also aligns well with the values of UsedKootenays.com, as being truly local. “We have staff on the ground in most of the communities we serve. They involve us in local community events, we partner with local non-profits and charities... We want to be that different classifieds that cares about the people using our sites,” said Richards.

ity as well. Called the Community Angel Program, Richards explains staff, or “angels”, spend time looking for ways to help out a person placing an online ad. “Their job is to search our sites to find people who have posted ads saying they’re in need,” she says. “That can be anyone - from a single mom who needs a birthday present for her son because she can’t afford one this year to a senior needing a new battery for their scooter.” The angel makes contact and meets with them in person to learn their story.
“Whether that’s financially, or whether they just need help connecting to other resources, we do our best to give them a hand,” says Richards. “We really want to have personal connections with our users.” Also setting them apart from other online shopping venues is tighter moderation, ensuring things like weapons, puppy mills and pornography aren’t promoted. Scams, spam and low quality content are less likely to appear on this site as well. It’s all part of maintaining a high quality service that allows a
positive exchange of goods with those living nearby. “People want to buy and sell from their neighbours, from people that they trust, from people living in their own communities,” Richards says. Secondhand bargain shopping is also the trend among many trying to save a buck these days. As well, it’s convenient to shop from a home computer, says Richards. “You can see the item right there online and you all the information and then you just go pick it up.” As part of a network of websites
across the country, UsedKootenays. com covers the entire Kootenay region but users can narrow down a search based on how far they’re willing to look. On Facebook and Tw i t t e r, UsedKootenays.com is increasing its profile after a few years of operation. The feedback forum on their site is also open for comments from users who see a way they can better serve the immediate area. “I would love to engage in some dialogue with people in the Kootenays,” says Richards.

East is very weak so he would not bid three spades giving the opponents another chance to bid five diamonds. The play: South ruffs the opening lead of the ace of spades. He draws trump in two rounds and knocks out the ace of hearts and makes six diamonds, pitching clubs on hearts. A better lead would have been the king of clubs, top of a broken sequence, because there is not a lot of future in spades. With a club lead, South ducks because his jack looks like it is pinned. West will switch to the ace of spades and keep declarer to five diamonds. Note: -All the bridge columns may be viewed at http://watsongallery.ca.

Lepines complete family sweep of senior curling titles FROM PAGE 1 games saw tentative approaches especially in the men’s final where Shypitka and Lepine combined to blank four of the 10 ends. That’s not to say there wasn’t some opportunities. With the score tied 1-1 after four ends, 13 rocks were in play when Lepine threw his final stone in the fifth. After much deliberation from both sides, Lepine’s final rock managed to score one to spot his team a 2-1 lead at the break. Two more blank ends followed before Shypitka scored one in the eighth to tie the game at 2-2. Then came the fateful ninth when Lepine’s final stone raised his rock enough to squeeze in for three and dramatically shift the momentum of the game. “I thought my third was letting it curl too much,” admitted Craig Lepine. “It missed by an eighth of an inch. I don’t think it had to be that tight.” Holding a 5-2 lead in the 10th, Lepine ran Shypitka out of rocks to seal the win.
Ironically, the ninth could’ve have sealed the win for Karin Lepine as well. With a 6-5 lead, Karin Lepine completed a nice double takeout to force Lesley Shearer, Ridgway’s third who was throwing skip stones, to draw for shot rock. Her throw came up short and Lepine also went long in her bid to take two. Another two points in the final end completed the 9-5 win and handed Karin Lepine her first women’s provincial title. However, it’s not the first time the Lepines have worn gold medals around their neck. Craig Lepine was a men’s provincial champion in 1990 and Craig and Karin teamed up to win the B.C. mixed title in 1996, 2000 and 2002. In hindsight, neither Karin or Craig could have envisioned their trip to Trail finishing with a double dose of success. “It would have been nice if just one of us was to win,” admitted Craig. “It’s certainly pretty special,” added Karin. The final capped off
a great week of curling at the Trail Curling Club, which drew plenty of spectators including a standingroom only crowd for the championship games. The players were treated to the usual Trail hospitality and the army of volunteers made things run smoothly. “I think the organizing committee did a tremendous job,” said Mel Lungle, Curl BC’s liaison. “From the get-go, Sandra (Stajduhar), Cal (McKerracher) and crew had everything in place and everything worked well. “When you have eight sheets of ice

BCHL
Smokies stoke their playoff hopes BY GUY BERTRAND Times Staff
Echoing the task facing them as the BCHL season winds down, the Trail Smoke Eaters bounced back from a 4-2 deficit to pull out a 5-4 double-overtime win against the Cowichan Valley Capitals Friday night at the Cominco Arena. Trail’s Valik Chichkin slipped the puck past a stretched-out Cowichan goalie two minutes into the three-on-three session for the crucial victory. The rally, which included Luke VALIK Sandler’s gameCHICHKIN tying goal with nine minutes to play, not only saved the game for Trail but continued to fan the flames of its playoff hopes. Coupled with the Salmon Arm Silverbacks’ 2-1 loss to the Penticton Vees that same night, the Smokies moved to within two points of the final
playoff spot with five games left on its schedule. The Smokies host the Merritt Centennials on Wednesday then close out the season with four consecutive games against the division-leading Vees. While the task of running the table appears daunting for Trail, Salmon Arm’s task of fending off the Smokies is just as tough. The Silverbacks’, who have lost five straight games, play five of its final six games on the road. After hosting Vernon next weekend, Salmon Arm hits the road for a three-game Island swing followed by a two-game road trip ending in Prince George to close out the season. With those scenarios hanging in the balance, Friday night’s must-win game at the Cominco Arena proved to be a display of sharpshooting and perseverance. Sandler led the way with two goals while Chichkin, with the game-winner, Scott Davidson and Adam Wheeldon added singles. Not lost in the team effort were twoassist games from Jesse Knowler, Brent Baltus, Tyler Berkholtz That total team offence produced 48
shots on goal including 27 in the first 40 minutes. However, the Smokies trailed 4-2 until Sandler potted his first of the night with three minutes left the middle frame. His quick snap shot from the slot proved too much for Cowichan goalie Patrick Spano. It was a tough night for Spano and Trail’s Adam Todd, who faced 22 shots, as the sharpshooters had their accuracy fine tuned. The Capitals’ Jarret Brown tucked a shot right under the cross bar to spot the visitors a 1-0 lead midway through the first. But Davidson came back six minutes later with a laser beam of his own near the faceoff circle and beat Spano high on the stick side. A cross-ice pass left Todd little chance of stopping the Capitals from taking a 2-1 lead in the final minute of the opening period. Trail ground out its second goal when Wheeldon held his turf in front of the net and redirected a centring pass from See TRAIL, Page 14
going all at the same time, particularly in the case of on-ice officials, scorekeepers, timekeepers, it’s quite an onerous task getting that many volunteers. “And they came through with flying colours.” The stage was set for the final after a hectic Friday, which featured a tie-breaker on the men’s side and both semifinals. Myron Nichol’s foursome from Castlegar, which included Trail’s Rick Brown, finished tied for third in the men’s round robin with Royal City’s Mel Steffin with 4-3 records. The two teams squared off Friday afternoon with Nichol stealing two in the seventh and one in the eighth to break open a 2-2 deadlock and cruise to a 7-3 win. The Nichol rink then faced Shypitka in Friday evening’s men’s semifinal. Shypitka stole four points over three ends and doubled Nichol 8-4 to earn a spot in the final. Rounding out the men’s standing were teams skipped by Victoria Wes Craig,
Kelowna’s Gary Gelowitz and Rick Pughe from Royal City finishing with 3-4 records while Ken Teskey of Williams Lake went winless in seven draws. Two teams finished tied atop the women’s standing with Lepine and Ridgway posting 6-1 records. However, Ridgway’s 8-4 round robin win against Lepine gave her rink the nod to the final. Lepine faced Nanaimo’s Debbie Jones-Walker in the women’s semi on Friday night in a match that went down to the wire and then some. Lepine scored two in the 10th to tie the game, then stole one in the 11th to advance to the final with a 7-6 victory. The rest of the women’s field saw Salmon Arm skips Penny Shantz and Wendy Cseke along with Royal City’s Kathy Smiley finish with 3-4 record. The Kootenay rep Teresa Hiram rink, which included Trail’s Rose Beauchamp, posted a 2-5 record while Cheryl Wyatt of Terrace went winless in the provincial championship.
KIJHL
Nitehawks grab home ice for first round
BY TIMES STAFF The Beaver Valley Nitehawks got the wins and the help they needed on the weekend to secure home ice advantage in the first round of the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League playoffs. The Nitehawks swept the Spokane Braves in a home-and-home series by scores of 5-1 on Friday in Spokane and 4-1 Saturday night in Fruitvale. The two wins, coupled with back-to-back losses by the Nelson Leafs in its two-game tilt with the Castlegar Rebels on the weekend, enabled the Nitehawks to grab second place in the Neil Murdoch Division, two points ahead of the Leafs. That means the Beaver Valley Arena will be the site of the first two games of the best-ofseven divisional semifinal between the Hawks and Leafs on Friday and Saturday. The other matchup will see the Rebels, who also finished first overall in the KIJHL, See PLAYOFFS, Page 12

Playoffs start on Friday FROM PAGE 13 host the fourth-place Braves. The Nitehawks did their part to get home ice advantage with two convincing wins against the Braves. Friday night, Zach Perehudoff stopped 45 of 46 shots while Walker Sidoni and Keanan Patershuk spotted the Hawks a 2-0 lead after one period. Goals by Ryan Edwards and Brandon Butlin made it 4-0 after 40 minutes. Spokane broke the shutout bid in the third before Russel Mortlock added the final dagger with 19 seconds left in regulation. Saturday night it was Jarrod Schamerhorn’s turn to shine between the pipes as he stopped 36 of 37 Spokane shots. Butlin, in the first, and Riley Brandt, in the second, gave Beaver Valley a 2-0 lead before Spokane got on the board to make it 2-1 after
two periods. Michael Bell and Edwards added third-period marker to wrap up Beaver Valley’s 33rd win of the season. All that was left was to watch the Rebels help out the Nitehawks by taking two from the falling Leafs by counts of 3-2 on Friday and 5-0 on Saturday. The losses, which extended Nelson’s losing streak to seven games, left the Leafs with 32 wins on the season and two points behind Beaver Valley for second place in the division. Notes: Jordan Salahor of the Kelowna Chiefs won the league’s scoring title with 31 goals and 83 points. Beaver Valley’s Dallas Calvin was fifth with 31 goals and 74 points. Goaltender Jordan Gluck of the Castlegar Rebels posted a league-leading 2.06 goals against average.

4-2 at the 10-minute mark when Mikael Jung jammed the puck enough that it trickled through Todd’s pads and just over the goal line. As the shot clock spelled out, the Smokies kept firing pucks at the Cowichan net and were rewarded with Sandler’s 21st
goal of the season, that sent his team into the third down 4-3. Trail pressed for the game-tying goal from the outset and outshot Cowichan 14-6 in the final 20 minutes. Baltus foreshadowed things to come as Spano robbed him on another pinpoint shot from the

game’s attackers. But seconds later, Baltus, Knowler and Sandler pressured the Cowichan goal with Sandler using his reach to lift the puck over Spano and knot the game at 4-4. The first overtime session saw Chichkin with the best chance on a partial break but Spano won the first OT showdown between the two. The second meeting came with two minutes and 11 seconds gone in the three-onthree session. This time Chichkin jumped on a loose puck in front of the Cowichan net and went with a wide wrap around the stretched out leg of Spano to cap the comeback. The Smokies get a few days to savour the win. The team has four home games left in the regular season - Wednesday with Merritt, Penticton visits on Saturday, then, following a road game in Penticton on Mar. 1, the team hosts the Vees on March 2 and 10.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Bruce Willis remains a diehard at the box office. Willis’ action sequel “A Good Day to Die Hard” debuted as the weekend’s top draw with a $25 million debut from Friday to Sunday. The 20th Century Fox release raised its domestic total to $33.2 million since opening Thursday for Valentine’s Day to get a jump on the long President’s Day weekend. The movie comes 25 years after the original “Die Hard” and six years after “Live Free or Die Hard,” the hit that resurrected the franchise centred on Willis’ relentless New York City cop John McClane. The previous weekend’s No. 1 movie, Universal’s comedy “Identity Thief” starring Jason Bateman and Melissa McCarthy, was a close second with $23.4 million to lift its haul to $70.7 million. Debuting at No. 3 with $21.4 million was Relativity Media’s romance “Safe Haven,” starring Julianne Hough and Josh Duhamel in an adaptation of the Nicholas Sparks novel about a woman who flees her abusive husband and takes up with a sensitive widower. Since opening on Valentine’s Day, “Safe Haven” has taken in $30.3 million. The Weinstein Co. animated tale “Escape from Planet Earth” opened at No. 4 with $16.1 million. Making a weak debut at No. 6 was the Warner Bros. teen fantasy “Beautiful Creatures,” which pulled in $7.5 million for the weekend and $10 million since opening Thursday. The movie is based on the first in the bestselling series about a Southern misfit (Alden Ehrenreich) who falls under the spell of a teen witch (Alice Englert). “A Good Day to Die Hard” did solid business despite bad reviews for the latest installment, which sends Willis’ McClane to Moscow in search of his estranged son, an undercover spy who winds up teaming with the old man against Russian bad guys. The movie’s success follows notable flops from two other holdovers of the 1980s action scene, Sylvester Stallone with “Bullet to the Head” and Arnold Schwarzenegger with “The Last Stand.”

Kim Kardashian
Date set for reality TV star’s divorce case THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - Kim Kardashian has a due date for her baby and now a trial date for her divorce from NBA player Kris Humphries. A judge on Friday set a May 6 trial for the reality TV star who wants to end her marriage before July, when her child with Kanye West is due. Kardashian filed for divorce on Oct. 31, 2011, after she and Humphries had been married just 72 days. Their lavish, star-studded nuptials were recorded and broadcast by E! Entertainment Television. The trial is expected to last three to five days and could reveal details about Kardashian’s reality show empire, which includes “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and several spinoffs. Two judges determined Friday that Humphries’ lawyers had adequate time to prepare for the trial. Humphries wants the marriage annulled based on his claim that Kardashian only married him for the sake of her show. She denies that allegation and says the case should be resolved through what would be her second divorce. Humphries’ attorney Marshall Waller asked for a delay until basketball season is over. But Superior Court Judge Scott Gordon refused, saying firefighters, police officers, truck drivers and others have to miss work for trials, and Humphries must do the same if necessary. Waller filed paperwork Thursday to withdraw from the case but didn’t mention that development in court and refused to answer any questions about the document on Friday. Waller said he was still hoping to obtain and review 13,000 hours of footage from Kardashian’s reality shows to try to prove the fraud claim but noted he does not yet have an agreement to receive the footage. Kardashian’s lawyer said her client was ready for trial. “Let’s get this case dispensed with,” attorney Laura Wasser said. Humphries has provided a deposition in the case, as have West and Kardashian family matriarch Kris Jenner.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Danica Patrick has made history before - as a woman and a racer, in Indianapolis and Japan. The spotlight is nothing new. But never has it been this bright before. Patrick won the Daytona 500 pole Sunday, becoming the first woman to secure the top spot for any race in NASCAR’s premier circuit. It’s by far the biggest achievement of her stock-car career. “I was brought up to be the fastest driver, not the fastest girl,” she said. “That was instilled in me from very young, from the beginning. “Then I feel like thriving in those moments, where the pressure’s on, has also been a help for me. I also feel like I’ve been lucky in my career to be with good teams and have good people around me. I don’t think any of it would have been possible without that. “For those reasons, I’ve been lucky enough to make history, be

the first woman to do many things. I really just hope that I don’t stop doing that. We have a lot more history to make. We are excited to do it.” Her latest stamp in the history books came with a lap at 196.434 mph around Daytona International Speedway. Patrick went out eighth in the qualifying session, then had to wait about two hours as 37 fellow drivers tried to take her spot. Only four-time Cup champion Jeff Gordon even came close to knocking her off. Gordon was the only other driver who topped 196 mph in qualifying. He locked up the other guaranteed spot in next week’s season-opening Daytona 500. “It’s great to be a part of history with Danica being on the pole,” said Gordon, who joked that at least he was the fastest guy. “I think we all know how popular she is, what this will do for our sport.
Congratulations to her. Proud to be on there with her.” The rest of the field will be set in duel quali-
fying races Thursday. However the lineup unfolds, all drivers will line up behind Patrick’s No. 10 Chevrolet SS.

Inform family of uncle’s creepy behaviour Mailbox
Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell
have noticed my uncle looking at them when we visit. Even more troubling, my uncle has two young granddaughters who visit on a regular basis. While I don’t like to think he’d do anything to them, my aunt and uncle often babysit for the girls, so he has regular opportunities to be alone with them. The situation worries me, but I don’t know what to do. I’m pretty sure neither my aunt nor my adult cousins have any idea what’s going on. My parents aren’t eager to create a rift, and the grandkids really love their grandpa. But I would feel awful if I later learned he had
But “Beth” brings her dog to my house and does the same thing. It is very annoying. Beth is wonderfully generous, kind and ethical. I cannot think of a way to tell her without hurting her. Do you have any suggestions? -- Love the Friend and Her Dog, But Dear But: You have already given Beth the impression that you don’t mind, so it will require telling her directly that she either not bring her dog, or not allow the dog to lick the plates. You can be gentle about it, saying you’ve become more concerned about germs lately and would prefer that the dog eat from a dish you’ve supplied for him instead of off of her plate. You might have to remind her a few times, but if she’s as generous, kind and ethical as you say, she will comply. Dear Annie: You often recommend grief counseling for readers whose loved ones have
died, and you say to check with their local hospital. I’d like to suggest an alternative. Not all hospitals offer grief counseling, except in the immediate aftermath of a death. But hospices throughout the country offer bereavement
support, and the vast majority of them serve the entire community, often at no cost. Please encourage anyone who is grieving to explore what is offered in their community through local hospices. -- Loyal Reader

abused these kids. If my parents don’t address the situation, should I tell my aunt? My cousins? -- Don’t Want It To Happen Again Dear Don’t Want: That hug from behind was a type of molestation. Your uncle isn’t likely to change his behavior on his own, so it is important that the relatives be informed and the younger children protected. Tell your parents that if they are unwilling to handle this, you will talk to your sisters and adult cousins. Your cousins may not believe that their father would harm their kids, and they may be angry with you, but they should know nonetheless. Dear Annie: Like “Worried and Confused in Calif.,” I am also turned off by a dear friend who allows her dog to eat off of her plates and slurp from the same glass. If it were only in her own home, it wouldn’t bother me too much.

Dear Annie: Several years ago, I stayed with my aunt and uncle for a week. My aunt sent me down to the basement to tell my uncle to come upstairs for dinner. When I turned the corner, I caught him pulling up his pants in front of the computer screen. He asked me not to tell my aunt, and I didn’t. During my time there, he did several other things that made me uncomfortable. He asked me personal questions about women’s bodies, and one time when I was alone with him, he hugged me from behind, pushing himself against me. Eventually, I told my parents about it. Although they believed me, I don’t think they ever said anything to my aunt and uncle. So I made my own rules about how close to get to him when we visited. The reason I’m writing is because I have two younger sisters, both teenagers, and I

YourByhoroscope Francis Drake For Wednesday, Feb. 20, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You feel idealistic and selfsacrificing today, which is why you will put the needs of others before your own. Quite likely, this is noble (but don’t be a sucker). TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Discussions with others might focus on your hopes and dreams for the future. Be careful you don’t fall into a piein-the-sky mode, wishing for the impossible. Stay realistic. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) You might feel sympathetic toward a parent or someone in a position of authority today. Or alternatively, an authority figure might be sympathetic to you. It’s all good. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Because your appreciation of beauty is heightened today, give yourself a chance to enjoy beautiful places. Visit museums, art galleries, parks and
gorgeous buildings. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You feel a strong need to help someone less fortunate today. This is very good; nevertheless, don’t give away the farm. Protect your own selfinterest. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Discussions with partners and close friends will be unusually in-sync. It’s almost as if you can read the other person’s mind or know what he or she wants. Lots of mutual sympathy and understanding are possible. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might feel compelled to help a co-worker or listen to his or her problems -- or vice versa, you might need a shoulder to cry on. People are very sympathetic today. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is a wonderful day for artists, because any kind of creative work will flow beautifully. You are very much in
touch with your imagination and your muse. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Conversations with family members will be mutually sympathetic today. It’s easy to understand what it’s like to walk a mile in someone else’s wedges. People will be good to you. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You might spend a lot of time daydreaming or fantasiz-
ing today. Don’t worry about this. We all need a mentalhealth day now and then. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be careful with financial matters today, because something might look better than it really is. Also, be careful when spending money, because you’re tempted to go overboard for something extravagant and luxurious. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20)
Your energy is a bit weaker today. It feels like you’re walking in quicksand. Don’t worry about this, because it’s a quickly passing influence. Proceed gently. YOU BORN TODAY You are quietly cooperative and extremely perceptive. You notice the world around you. In fact, if possible, you want to pass on the impressions you have to others. You have an excellent memory and strength of personality so that
