New recycling plan will save RDKB money
FALL FLAVOURS
Manufacturer will absorb costs BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff

Two-year-old Lukka Payne of Warfield was thankful for Rossland's beautiful fall weather and a juicy apple to sink his teeth into.
Product packaging already looks much different with bio-degradable chip bags and recyclable coffee to-go cups and the trend is set to continue with the introduction of a packaging and printed paper plan that puts the responsibility of recycling into the hands of manufacturers. Under the provincial government’s direction, Multi-Material British Columbia (MMBC) is the not-for-profit organization formed by industry to manage a new printed paper and packaging recycling system that is said to relieve local governments of cost and administrative burden next year. For the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) this ultimately means a savings of an estimated $785,000 annually, which could be injected into other environmental projects that too would result in further cost savings down the line, according to Alan Stanley, RDKB director of environmental services. “MMBC just represents the manufacturers of all this stuff and it's always been the goal to have the manufacturers responsible,” said Stanley. “Our board was more than happy to hand it over it to them because technically and legally now it is their problem.” Local governments that collect waste for recycling were given a three-point ultimatum this fall to accept MMBC's financial offer and keep collecting paper and packaged products using the local government's contractor, to decline the MMBC offer and transfer collection to the organization or to decline MMBC and continue to collect these materials without its involvement.

New regional bus routes attracting more passengers BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff
More people are hopping on board the bus following the launch of expanded West Kootenay routes three months ago. Since July, passengers have hitched a ride on the West Kootenay Transit Committee’s integrated regional system that created three zones, including the Columbia zone, which melds Castlegar, Trail, Fruitvale and Rossland, Slocan zone (Playmor Junction up to Slocan City), and the Kootenay zone, which includes Nelson, with an all-zone or regional pass.

Deadline: 11am 1 day prior to publication.
To those not involved in the music industry, it may seem that singers and songwriters have an easy life but the reality can be quite different. Long hours struggling to write songs that might appeal to an audience and always facing the risk of rejection when trying to promote their work. Busy local musician, Jason Thomas, and his song writing partner, local realtor, Tonnie Stewart, have worked for five years, at least one night a week, crafting original works that they hoped to sell to recording artists that may have a chance of getting airplay. Now they are finally seeing some of the dreams of their five-year long professional relationship come to fruition with the inclusion of two of the team’s songs on a new release by Vernon based country artist, Jaydee Bixby, who was runner-up in the fifth season of Canadian Idol in 2007. “My long time friend, (Castlegar’s) Lisa Nicole, has the same producer as Bixby and we were in Nashville working on her CD,” said Thomas. “He liked some of the music I had played with her on the disc and I passed on a demo CD of our music.” Thomas was later thrilled to hear that two of his and Stewart’s songs, “Loud” and “She’s Gone” had been included on Bixby’s latest full-length album, “Work in Progress.” He was even
James Kasper may be new to Trail but he’s been a part of the music industry for 20 years. The, now local, singer songwriter will be launching his latest album “Twenty,” Oct. 19 at cafe Americano in Trail at 7 p.m. The title of Kasper’s new release alludes both to the 20 tracks on the new CD, as well as his 20 years in the industry. During that time he has performed BCTV’s Variety Club Show of Hearts, recorded with members of Blue Rodeo, and has toured Canada five times in support of his five previous recordings. Tickets are $10 in advance and $12 at the door. – Harrison

as a single you have the chance to make even more when the songs gets heavy rotation on radio stations.” Even with the Oct. 2 release of the album and subsequent single from the album played on country radio in Canada and the U.S., Thomas doesn’t anticipate seeing any financial returns in the near future. “The album was released this month but I’ll be lucky to see a cheque by this time next year,” he said. “But I don’t care, it’s worth the wait.” Thomas, who just returned from a cross-Canada tour backing up Nicole, started playing guitar when he was nine-years-old but didn’t really start his music career in earnest until he was 14 and began playing in local jam sessions and for practically every community held event in the Greater Trail area. He attended the
Professional Music Program at Selkirk College in Nelson and, aside from his songwriting work with Stewart, currently divides his time between teaching guitar and playing with three or four local bands. For the future Thomas hopes to continue with songwriting and would like to start a music publishing company with Stewart. “It would be pitching our music to artists and once we make a connection if someone is working on an album they could either pull from our catalogue or we could write something new for them,” Thomas said. “Right now we have around 200 original songs in our catalogue. It’s primarily country but when the mood hits it can be blues, pop, rock, whatever. I draw from other people’s experiences but write from my perspective. I try to keep it honest.”

Provincial transit plan falling short, says auditor FROM PAGE 1 Although the WK Transit system requires a few tweaks according to rider feedback, the strong ridership in the corridors is encouraging, said Burton. “It is early days but I think the system will continue to grow as more people become aware of it.” Prior to the change, people had to purchase two top ups, paying as much as $5.50 to travel across the multiple service areas and consult several different rider guides to figure out how to get there. The integrated service introduced the all-zone fare of $3.50 along with a cohesive guide and a four-month semester pass available to any student within the region for $125. The future of public transit across British Columbia is under provincial review and a key strategy in the government’s climate action agenda. When people chose public transportation over using a vehicle for travel, transit services provide a range of benefits, from reduced road congestion to lower greenhouse gas emission, cites the agenda. The Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure released a provincial transit plan in 2008, aimed at substantially expanding public transit province-wide by the end of 2020. A recent audit of that plan revealed that it is falling short of its 2020 goal, and in response has launched a web-based resource called “Shaping Transit’s Future in British Columbia,” aimed to raise public awareness about the transit system and the challenges it faces.

Students’ film shoot draws police response By Arne Petryshen Cranbrook Townsman
Don’t play around with prop guns in front of a bank. That’s the lesson a couple of high school students have learned after their film shoot quickly became the subject of a full-on police takedown last Wednesday. After a call came in, Cranbrook RCMP promptly responded to a call about a potential armed robbery at a downtown Cranbrook bank. It turned out to be group of Mount Baker Secondary students wielding a realistic prop handgun, but the seven officers who responded had to assume it was not a drill. A passerby saw the group with the prop handgun and called it in. Immediately police descended in full force and instructed the students to get on the ground. However, after the situation was defused and police had a chat with the students they were let on their way.

ground breaking development in Salmo
Submitted
The Salmo & Area Supportive Housing project officially broke ground Thursday. Located at 730 Railway Ave., the new affordable housing site will include 20 apartments for seniors and eight townhouses for families.Since 2005, the 1.6 acre property, located behind Kootenay Savings Credit Union, was earmarked for the village’s need for senior housing because historically, taking care of Salmo seniors who require extra help, meant relocation to a facility in Trail, Castlegar, Nelson and beyond. However, in 2010 an overall need for affordable housing was determined after the 2006 census revealed the average Salmo incomes were the lowest in the Basin. The $4.5 million development was made possible with the help of BC Housing, BC Non-Profit Housing, and Columbia Basin Trust.

Change to recycling offers opportunity FROM PAGE 1 In the RDKB east-sub region, Greater Trail, the board decided to decline the incentives and pass the buck onto MMBC, which will put a contract out to tender. In the Grand Forks area, where the collection of food-scraps are combined with recycling, the regional district has accepted the incentives and therefore the responsibility of managing the current system in place until the existing contract is up. “I’ve been in this business for over 20 years and this is the first time we’ve ever had anything like this in front of us,” added Stanley. “I don’t see it as too much of a problem, as the program will look very similar to if not identical to what it looks like now and from the user’s point of view, there should be little to no change.” Instead, he said, with the change next May comes more opportunity. The introduction of the system couldn’t come at a better time for the regional district, as in the near future it will accept proposals for a consultant to redo its solid waste management plan. New money means potential earmarked projects within the plan could
include a new entranceway to the McKelvey Creek Landfill or the development of a compost program in Greater Trail. “On the upside of the costing is if you do do the organic waste composting you’re going to increase the life of all the landfills in the entire regional district, which in the long run would probably save tens of millions of dollars,” added Trail Coun. Robert Cacchioni, a regional board member. With extending the life of the landfill comes a financial savings too, he said, noting the cost the regional district sets aside for eventual closure of Trail’s landfill jumped from $7,000 annually to $140,000 in just a few short years and due to life expectancy is estimated to continue to rise. A new entranceway could also length-

en the life of the facility in Trail with a potential new area to fill, he added. There is much to discuss and plenty of ways to improve the current process in Greater Trail, according to Stanley who has watched people’s perspective on reduce, reuse and recycle shift over time. “When I started in this business nobody expected anybody to come by and pick up a blue box full of recyclables at the end of their driveway, you know 25 years later it is just part of our culture, our society,” he said. “People’s expectations do shift dramatically over time and in a few years the expectation will be ‘well industry should look after that because they make it.’” Cacchioni’s only worry about the new plan rests in the cost of the product. He finds it difficult to believe that the manufacturers are going to take on the burden without passing it onto the consumer and predicts a small increase on the cost of products will follow suit. “Is the government going to provide some sort of watchdog effect on the producers so they don’t just directly pass it off immediately onto the consumers?” he asked.

Dr. Seuss book no longer banned in schools as union grievances settled THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - “Yertle the Turtle” is no longer under ban. “Yertle the Turtle” can gather more fans - in school districts around British Columbia. A freedom of expression grievance has been settled between the BC Teachers’ Federation and the B.C. Public School Employers’ Association based on the Dr. Seuss children’s book about a turtle trying to assert its rights. The complaint was one of several made by the union when some school districts were banning classroom displays of union posters, buttons and T-shirts in the middle of a teachers’ contract dispute. In one case, an administrator vetoed a quote for classroom display in Prince Rupert from the book “Yertle the Turtle,” saying it was too political. Dave Stigant, with the Prince Rupert district, was given about 20 quotes from the book to determine if they would be appropriate to expose to students during an ongoing labour dispute. He didn’t like this quote: “I know up on top you are seeing great sights, but down here on the bottom, we too should have rights.”
BCTF President Jim Iker said the quote was just a small example of several instances where the union felt it had a claim of unfair labour practices in the province. “But definitely the ‘Yertle the Turtle’ one out of Prince Rupert highlighted the whole issue of freedom of expression and our constitutional rights.” Iker said several such claims went to arbitration over the last four or five years before the issue was ironed out. The complaints were settled based on a previous court case, a key arbitration ruling and an agreement with the employer on freedom of expression rights. Teachers are now allowed to display or wear union posters, buttons and T-shirts. “I’m hoping it clears it up. I think it actually gives both sides certainty and we know where the limits are in terms of materials and what we’re able to display or not display, and I think the employer knows what the expectations are,” Iker said. He said teachers also know that they can’t discuss any kind of political or union messaging with students during instruction time.

Council rejects two-tiered recreational services rates By Steve Kidd
Penticton Western News
People living outside the city of Penticton will continue to pay the same rates for recreation services as residents, after council voted last week to reject the concept of tiered pricing. The idea of charging a premium rate for users of the city’s recreation facilities who live outside the city and not paying into the municipal taxes that build and support them, has been bandied about for years, with Coun. John Vassilaki as one of its most ardent supporters. But after hearing a report from Chuck Loewen, Penticton’s general manager for facilities and recreation services, showing possible revenue losses with tiered pricing, council voted to retain the current pricing structure. Back in 2010, Penticton developed a tiered pricing model but asked, through the Regional

District of Okanagan-Similkameen, that other participating communities chip in tax dollars instead. The RDOS rejected the proposal. Tiered pricing wasn’t implemented and in 2011, Penticton city staff brought forward a report comparing the tiered pricing with a loyalty club model, which was launched in February 2013. That loyalty club, Loewen said, was a better model for increasing revenue and decreasing the need for a city subsidy of facilities. “The launch of this club has produced more than 215 members in less than six months and an additional $8,500 in revenues,” said Loewen. “I disagree enormously with the losses that you are predicting … if we go to a two-tier system,” said Vassilaki. “I believe that it is not fair for our taxpayers to pay for other people’s recreation that do not contribute to our city.”

No extradition sought for sex offender
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS EDMONTON - The Alberta government says it won’t ask the federal government to seek the extradition of a convicted sex offender who police say fled Canada for the United States. Police have been trying to track down Michael Stanley since Oct. 1 when the electronic monitoring bracelet he was wearing as cut off. An arrest warrant was issued for Stanley on charges of breach of recognizance, mischief
and driving offences. Police say Stanley crossed the border into Washington State. Alberta justice spokesman Dan Laville says Alberta prosecutors don’t believe the charges Stanley faces warrant triggering the extradition process. He says the requirement that Stanley wear an ankle bracelet is not a criminal matter in itself. U.S. officials have said it’s not watching Stanley and doesn’t even know where he is.
Manitoba
Study downplays all-day kindergarten THE CANADIAN PRESS WINNIPEG - A University of Manitoba study suggests that full-day kindergarten makes no difference over the long haul to kids with lower literacy skills. The research team examined full-day kindergarten in the Division Scolaire FrancoManitobaine and in the schools with full-day kindergarten in St. James-Assiniboia. Marni Brownell, senior scientist at the Manitoba Centre for Health Policy, says results soon to be published show while students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds made improvements in literacy levels in fullday kindergarten, the earlier gap with other children returned in
later years. Brownell said the reason the gap reappears is because parents were not reinforcing literacy at home, were not reading to and with their kids, but they were modelling watching TV instead of reading themselves. Brownell said her research group is also studying the possible impact on literacy skills of a combination of programs. “There’s lots of research that full-day kindergarten has an effect in getting kids ready for Grade 1,” Brownell said. “The literature shows that full-day kindergarten may not be the best program for closing the gap. Putting all your eggs in one basket doesn’t make up the disadvantage.”
Government to outline changes for TV providers THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - The federal government will unveil plans this week to force cable and satellite TV providers to offer consumers so-called pick-andpay services, says a prominent cabinet minister. The move will be part of a consumer-first agenda to be included by the Conservatives in this week’s speech from the throne. Consumers are frustrated over being forced to buy large bundles of channels they don’t want when they sign up for satellite and cable TV services, says Industry Minister James Moore. Companies such as Videotron in Quebec are already moving in the pick-and-pay direction, largely because consumers are shying away from traditional TV and are instead watching programming over the Internet. As viewer habits evolve, there’s no reason why all television service providers can’t offer consumers the ability to pick and choose the channels they want, says Moore. “We don’t think people should be forced to buy bundled television channels when they’re not interested in watching those channels and those shows,” Moore said in an interview with The Canadian Press. “We should have a pick-andpay model when it comes to television channels.” The two largest cable and satellite TV service providers - Bell (TSX:BCE) and Rogers (TSX:RCI.B) - offer subscribers basic packages that include the main television networks and selected other channels. But upgraded packages, at a higher cost, have channels bundled together by category or viewing interest. Quebec’s Videotron (TSX:QBR.B) has recently offered subscribers the ability to choose five individual channels at a time from a list of choices, on top of their basic service. Bell has also offered
Air Canada faces backlash over lost dog THE CANADIAN PRESS Air Canada is in the doghouse over a spokesman’s remarks following the disappearance of a dog who escaped airline staff at a California airport. The company says handlers at San Francisco International Airport took the dog out of his crate on Monday after his flight was delayed and the pet either slipped out of his collar or broke it. Air Canada says the dog - an Italian greyhound named Larry - bolted, and was last spotted about five kilometres from the airport. The local CBS TV station took interest in Larry’s disappearance and says it asked the airline about its procedures after obtaining a statement about the incident. Instead, the station says it accidentally received an email from spokesman Peter Fitzpatrick urging his colleagues to ignore the inquiry. “I think I would just
ignore, it is local news doing a story on a lost dog. Their entire government is shut down and about to default and this is how the US media spends its time,” the station said the email read. Word quickly spread online, with many voicing their outrage over the company’s response. “If you ever fly with your pet, you might not want to choose Air Canada,” one wrote on Twitter. “How NOT to respond to a media
request. Oh, @aircanada, you’ve done it again,” read another tweet. The airline addressed the controversy. “Air Canada acknowledges inappropriate comments were made in response to a reporter’s follow-up questions for additional details regarding Larry,” it said. “However, Air Canada has been providing the best available information to media on this matter. These comments do not reflect Air Canada’s

for a dog show. Efforts to track down the pooch are still underway. Air Canada said staff continue to search for Larry and have put up posters near the airport. Kulic, meanwhile, said she’s received reports of sightings and has reason to believe Larry was struck by a vehicle on a highway on-ramp sometime this week. But no remains have been found and she said she’s not sure whether he survived.

a similar pricing structure, but only in Quebec. Canada’s broadcast regulator, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, urged cable and satellite companies in 2011 to adopt a pick-and-pay pricing model when it unveiled new regulations aimed at preventing television broadcasters from restricting consumer choice. In response, Rogers experimented with a type of a la carte pricing model in the winter of 2011-2012, offering consumers in London, Ont. a so-called “skinny basic” package for about $20, then charging an extra $26 or more to customers who wanted to pick 15, 20 or 30 extra channels. But others, including Shaw Communications Inc., resisted such a pricing model and it was never made mandatory. Moore said it’s about time for that to happen. “It’s not a command economy, we’re not going to put in place onerous regulations. We’re a government of deregulation,” Moore insisted. Some critics, however, have questioned whether such a payment regime will result in lower overall prices for television services. As well, analysts note there are about 20 channels that TV distributors must carry, including the CBC and Radio-Canada. The throne speech will also lay out the government’s plans for ensuring air travellers are somehow compensated when they are inconvenienced by airline overbooking. Whether that includes enforced, specific compensation amounts remains to be seen, said Moore. But the Conservatives have in the past adopted consumer protection measures that were voluntary, rather than mandatory, something Opposition NDP consumer affairs critic Glenn Thibeault said blunted regulations. The Tories also rejected legislation introduced by the New Democrats that included an air passenger bills of rights.

‘Social justice’ as student indoctrination
A
s the B.C. Teachers’ Federation executive moseys back to the bargaining table after a summer off, I’m reminded of former education minister George Abbott’s thoughts on his time trying to establish a civil discussion with the province’s most militant union. It started with a lecture. “In my first meeting with the BCTF, and I gather this is characteristic of all first meetings with education ministers, the TF advises that yes, they are a union, but first and foremost they are social activists and agents of social change,” Abbott recalled. Their buzzword is “social justice,” which is portrayed by leftists as superior to plain old justice, in ways that are seldom defined. So what exactly are the goals of this “social change”? Here’s some of what I’ve gleaned. Parents may recall the 2008 introduction of an elective high school course
called Social Justice 12. This was mainly the result of intense protest by a couple of gay activist teachers, and the ministry curriculum describes its emphasis on inclusion of racial, cultural and sexual differences. That’s all good, and it’s now bolstered by urgently needed anti-bullying and empathy efforts at all grades. Then there is the BCTF version. It’s not just a battle against “racism, homophobia and sexism” but also “poverty and globalization.” The BCTF has a quarterly “Social Justice Newsletter” filled with predictable economic assumptions. Readers of the latest issue are reminded at length that the United Nations takes a dim view of Canada’s record on human rights, including a right to housing. Undefined “poverty” statistics are cited, although Statistics Canada has nothing but incomplete relative measures. One article describes
TOM
FLETCHER B.C. Views
a social justice club for Grade 2 and 3 students, with activities that include collecting food bank donations and “writing to the premier asking for a systemic plan to address child poverty.” Leaving aside whether eight-year-olds can understand what “systemic” means, this rhetoric is taken directly from the tired old NDP policy book. It rests on the cherished myth that poverty is imposed by right-wing governments that refuse to double the minimum wage and pile more taxes on “the rich.” And what about that
darned “globalization”? The BCTF still has a 2001 teaching guide on its website promoting the claim that Nike is uniquely guilty of making shoes and exercise gear in Third World sweatshops. Teachers are to instruct students how to organize a boycott of Nike, thus passing the received wisdom of campus radicalism to the next generation. This was all debunked years ago. Are Adidas, Reebok, Apple and Microsoft any different? Has nothing changed in 12 years? A quick web search will show this is a stale old tale with a convenient villain, to avoid complex questions. A BCTF official assures me this unit is being updated. Once that one is done, maybe they could check over their teaching unit on Enbridge’s Northern Gateway proposal, another labour of the union’s “social justice” truth team. Entitled “What We Stand To Lose With Pipelines
and Supertankers,” it boasts wildlife photos and “key sources” from the left (Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives) to the far-left fringe (Pipe Up Network). It is another protesters’ guide designed around a pre-determined viewpoint. BCTF bosses love to talk about the importance of “critical thinking.” These one-sided caricatures of Nike, Enbridge and other familiar villains seem designed to produce the opposite. They remind me of George Orwell’s classic novel “1984,” where loyal party members are required to focus on selected enemies in a daily ritual called the Two Minutes Hate. Perhaps this is a clue to why our school system produces so many students lacking in employment skills and bursting with demands for government-imposed wealth redistribution.

generation of leaders . . . can only be truly great if employers understand and value a university degree as a broad education, not specific skills training”. Blouw’s take on the mission of universities is an astonishingly clear enunciation of the very reason that so many of his graduates find themselves facing dismal career prospects. And his derogatory labelling of graduates from faculties that do provide specific skills training as “cookie cutter workers” would come as a surprise to medical specialists striving to deal with complex diseases, or to chemists whose work has led to the development of myriad synthetic products that have transformed our lives, or to engineers whose work delivers the technological wonders that surround us. Most assuredly, these professionals are self-aware critical thinkers, but medical doctors have also learned the knowledge of the human body discovered by those who have come before, chemists have learned the facts about the molecular interactions that form the foundation of their work, and engineers have learned the advanced mathematics and physics principles needed to safely design a bridge or calculate the gravitational forces upon a satellite flying through interstellar space. It is simply incomprehensible to me to assert that the role of universities is to graduate students without such basic foundation knowledge and then to expect employers to provide it. It’s time for Professor Blouw and his colleagues to put the interests of their students, and our country, ahead of defending their elitist perch in those hallowed ivory towers.

Close the cigarillo loophole
An editorial from the Winnipeg Free Press The popularity of flavoured smokes among youth using tobacco shows Health Canada’s rules on marketing to kids are falling short of the target. Smoking among young people has been falling but the rate of decline has slowed. A survey by a health research centre at the University of Waterloo has shown flavoured tobacco might have something to do with that. Flavoured cigarettes and
cigarillos (“little cigars”) are prohibited in Canada, according to Health Canada regulations. But there are exceptions: menthol cigarettes are allowed. Further, the flavour ban -- and the mandatory health scares adorning the packaging -- relate only to smokes that weigh 1.4 grams or less. Not surprisingly, manufacturers are now making a heavier cigarillo, skirting the packaging and flavour laws. These are not your parents’
cigarillos. They taste like bubble gum or juicy fruits like “grapes gone wild” and “cherry vanilla,” precisely the kiddie appeal Health Canada’s 2010 regulations targeted with its flavour ban. The government should rework the Tobacco Act, regulations and related legislation to prevent unscrupulous manufacturers from exploiting children’s natural affinity for candy flavours and packaging that promises a hit of excitement.

PRODIGIOUS PEPPER PATCH
SCOTT CAIRNS
Winnipegger part of team that won Nobel Peace Prize
THE CANADIAN PRESS WINNIPEG - A Winnipeg man is part of the group that has won the Nobel Peace Prize. The prize was awarded Friday to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons. Scott Cairns, 42, originally of Winnipeg, is currently leading that team of investigators in Syria. Cairns earned a chemistry degree at the University of Manitoba. His parents still live in Winnipeg and only learned of the honour from hearing about it in the media. Bill Cairns, a former military man, says the news was “very much a thrill.” “We knew the work Scott was involved in was making the world a better place.” He said his son first joined OPCW in 2008 after working several years with the Canada’s Department of National Defence, where he helped train military forces about defending themselves from chemical attacks. Since joining OPCW, Cairns, who is now living in The Hague, Netherlands, has travelled the world, destroying weapons found in places such as Russia and Vietnam. “He realized it was quite a high calling,” said his father. “I wouldn’t say he was proud, but he was very happy to do this work. He sees it as something for the greater good.” Cairns’ mother, Jeannette, said the prize will elevate the profile of OPCW, which until Friday toiled mostly in the shadows of major international conflicts. “Whoever voted for it voted for the entire OPCW,” she said. “They don’t go as individuals, they go as a team. I don’t think a lot of people know about them. “I didn’t before Scott got involved.”

OSCAR HIJUELOS
Pulitzer winner wrote of Cuban immigrant experience THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - Oscar Hijuelos, a Cuban-American novelist who won a Pulitzer Prize for his 1989 novel “The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love” and whose work often captured the losses and triumphs of the Cuban immigrant experience, has died. He was 62. Hijuelos died of a heart attack in Manhattan on Saturday while playing tennis, according to his agent, Jennifer Lyons. “The Mambo Kings Play Songs of Love” became a bestseller and earned him international acclaim. He won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1990, making him the first Hispanic writer to
receive that honour. The novel tells the story of two Cuban brothers who journey from Havana to New York to start an orchestra. At one point in the story, the brothers appear on the television comedy “I Love Lucy,” which starred Lucille Ball and her Cuban bandleader husband, Desi Arnaz. The book was eventually turned into a movie starring Armand Assante and Antonio Banderas. In his 2011 memoir, “Thoughts Without Cigarettes,” Hijuelos wrote of how he struggled against being labeled an “ethnic” writer and noted that even today there are few other Latinos whose work, despite
www.MyAlternatives.ca
the considerable number of talented authors, has been awarded the same recognition. After a trip with his mother to Cuba as a young child, he became ill with a kidney disease and was hospitalized for a year, during which he lost his Spanish-speaking ability, and never truly recovered it. “For the longest time, all I would know was that I had gotten sick in Cuba, from Cuban microbios, that the illness had blossomed in the land of my forebears, the country where I had once been loved and whose language fell as music on my ears,” Hijuelos wrote. “Of course, diseases happen anywhere, and children get sick

under any circumstances, but what I would hear for years afterward from my mother was that something Cuban had nearly killed me and, in the process of my healing, would turn my own ‘Cubaness’ into air.” It was an experience of displacement and a neverending inability to reach an identity he inherits that many Cubans of his generation could understand. It also defined much of his development as a writer, as he initially hesitated to embrace his story and that of his family as a source of inspiration for his fictional characters - too ashamed to put them on paper, believing the world was indifferent to his tale.

Smoke Eaters succumb to SilverBacks and Kings By Jim Bailey
Times Sports Editor
The Trail Smoke Eaters second period comeback came up just a little short on Thanksgiving Sunday, as the Powell River Kings defeated the home team 3-2. The Smoke Eaters dropped both ends of a home-and-home series with the Salmon Arm SilverBacks, losing 7-2 in Salmon Arm on Thursday and suffering a 5-1 loss at the Cominco Arena Friday, before falling to the Kings, in a much better showing on Sunday. “That was one of our better efforts all year actually,” said Smokies assistant coach Barry Zanier. “If the boys give that type of effort every night we’ll definitely get some wins.” Yet, the three losses contribute to a slide that has seen the Smokies put up just one point in their last six games, a potentially crushing blow to a team that began the season full of optimism and hopes for a playoff berth. The Kings went up 2-0 in the first period on a break away goal by Stephen Hiff and a goalcrease scramble tap in by by Ryan Scarfo, his eighth goal of the season. However, Trail fought back in the second tying it at 2-2 on a pair of powerplay goals by Michigan native Brian Basilico, his first as a Smoke Eater. However, after a Smoke Eater giveaway, Luke

The Trail Smoke Eaters dropped their fourth game in a row on Sunday, losing to the Powell River Kings 3-2 after dropping a pair to Interior division rivals Salmon Arm SilverBacks on Thursday and Friday. The Smoke Eaters will look to get back on track as they face the Vernon Vipers tonight in Vernon. Nogard would convert a Jared Lukosevicius pass to net the eventual winner at 14:28 of the middle frame. Trail’s player of the month, goaltender Dustin Nikkel, played well stopping 36 shots, while the Smokies directed 19 shots on the Kings’ goalie Jeff Smith. On Friday, Trail fell behind 3-1 in the first period and couldn’t find the back of the net after that, as the SilverBacks skated to a 5-1 win. Landon Smith, Taylor Maruya, Evan Anderson, Alex Gillies, and Thomas Plese scored for Salmon Arm while Curtis
Toneff’s power-play goal was the only reply from the Smokies, who were outshot 30-26 on the night. “It seems to be we play well for most of the game and there’s a shift or a couple of shifts where there’s a lapse and the other team capitalizes on it,” said Zanier. “It seems like it’s been like that all year.” On Thursday, the Backs erupted for five goals in the third period, with former Beaver Valley Nitehawks Connor Browne-Maloski netting a goal and an assist to lead Salmon Arm to a 7-2 victory over the Smoke Eaters. Joel Webb and Scott
Davidson scored for Trail and Adam Wheeldon counted two assists. The losses leave the Smokies in last place in the Interior division four points behind Merritt who lost to the Coquitlam Express 4-2 Saturday. Particularly troubling for the Smokies was the way Salmon Arm dominated their two games, propelling the Gorillas into a tie for third place in the division with Vernon Vipers at 15 points. “It’s so important to grab some points off of teams in our division and we’ve got some games coming up and we really need
to get some points here, otherwise the separation is starting to happen and then it’s tough.” The Smokies look to get back on track when they travel to Vernon tonight to take on the Vipers at Kal Tire Place. The Vipers have won three in a row including both ends of a homeand-home in a 4-1 victory Friday and a 5-4 overtime win against the Chilliwack Chiefs and former Smokie goaltender Lyndon Stanwood on Saturday. The Vipers stormed back from a 4-1 deficit, scoring three times in the third period, including two by

Nitehawks have mixed results on weekend Hawks blank Knights, fall to Leafs By Jim Bailey
Times Sports Editor
It didn’t take the Beaver Valley Nitehawks’ Dallas Calvin long to make an impact, as the recent returnee scored the winning goal in the Nitehawks 3-0 shut out of the North Okanagan Knights at the B.V. Arena Saturday. The Hawks split a pair of games against the Kootenay International Junior League’s top two teams falling to the Nelson Leafs 5-2 in Nelson Friday before shutting out the Knights. Mitch Foyle fed
Calvin who made no mistake 21 seconds into the opening period, beating the NOK’s goalie Zack Dyment for the 1-0 lead. Minutes later, the NOK’s Mathew Halvorson took a charging penalty, and on the ensuing power play Taylor Stafford would work the puck to Calvin who would then set up Ryan Edwards for the insurance marker at 14:29 of the first. Goaltender Josh Round nailed down the victory for the Hawks, bouncing back from a tough loss against the Leafs, to stop all 17 shots for his first shutout of the season. Edwards would set
up Michael Bell who netted his fifth of the season with just over five minutes remaining in the second period to close out the scoring. The spirited match saw 136 minutes in penalties between the two teams, including 92 to the Knights and 44 to the Hawks, in
what would turn out to be a tough road trip for the Okanagan division team. With one loss under their belts before embarking on the Kootenay division road swing, the NOKs eked out just one win in three games, a 2-1 overtime decision against Spokane
Friday, before falling to the Hawks Saturday, and losing 4-2 to the Grand Forks Border Bruins Sunday. Meanwhile, the Nitehawks dropped a 5-2 match to the Neil Murdoch division leading Leafs on Friday, despite outshooting Nelson 22-18. See NELSON, Page 12
Vipers’ leading scorer Mason Blacklock, to force extra time. The Smoke Eaters will need to neutralize the BCHL’s fifth leading scorer and the rest of the Snakes, as every match becomes more and more meaningful for the Smokies. “The Vernons, the Merritts, the Salmon Arms, those are crucial games, and unfortunately we’ve given up enough points to them already, so we have to get it going.” Trail returns home Friday night for a game against the Coquitlam Express at 7:30 p.m.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS DETROIT - David Ortiz’s grand slam in the eighth inning helped Boston to a remarkable comeback win Sunday night in the AL championship series. The Red Sox went on to beat the Detroit Tigers 6-5 in a game Boston had once trailed 5-0. The Red Sox were down 5-1 with one out and nobody on in the eighth. At that point, they had only a 3 per cent chance of winning, according to baseball-reference.com. But they pulled it off, evening the series at 1. Was it the most remarkable rally in Red Sox post-season history? Probably not. Five years ago, in Game 5 of the ALCS against Tampa Bay, Boston trailed 7-0 in the seventh inning before coming back to win 8-7. That victory kept alive the season for the Red Sox, although they eventually lost the series in seven. Here’s a look back at some more of baseball’s most famous post-season comebacks: SERIES TURNERS: Tigers fans can take solace in the fact that Detroit’s meltdown was nothing compared to what happened in the 1929 World Series. The Chicago Cubs led 8-0 in Game 4 before Philadelphia scored 10 runs in the bottom of the seventh. The Athletics won 10-8 and closed out the series a game later. No lead seemed safe against the 1993 Toronto

Bills sign Flynn The Associated Press The Buffalo Bills have signed free-agent quarterback Matt Flynn in their latest bid to shore up an injury-depleted position. Flynn arrived in Buffalo a day earlier and spent the Monday morning working out in the team’s fieldhouse in front of general manager Doug Whaley, coach Doug Marrone and offensive co-ordinator Nathaniel Hackett. Though Flynn’s workout had been
scheduled before Buffalo’s 27-24 overtime loss to Cincinnati on Sunday, the Bills (2-4) could be in need of another starter after Thad Lewis sprained his right ankle against the Bengals. Lewis said tests were negative, but it’s uncertain whether he will be ready to play at Miami (3-2) on Sunday. Lewis was off the practice squad last week to fill in for EJ Manuel, who is out indefinitely with a sprained right knee.

Blue Jays, thanks to an offence that include Roberto Alomar, Paul Molitor, Joe Carter and John Olerud. The Blue Jays wiped out a five-run deficit in the eighth inning of Game 4 of the World Series, beating Philadelphia 15-14. Everyone remembers Carter’s series-winning homer in Game 6, but winning that slugfest two games earlier put Toronto in control. UNLIKELY HITTER, UNLIKELY RUNNER: In Game 7 of the 1992 NLCS, Atlanta trailed Pittsburgh 2-0 in the ninth inning before winning the pennant in shocking fashion. The Pirates were still ahead by a run with two out when Francisco Cabrera - who had only 11 plate appearances during the regular season - hit a two-run single to left. The winning run was scored by slow-footed Sid Bream, who came around from second and slid home just ahead of the throw by Barry Bonds. WASHINGTON’S WOES: Last year, the Nationals blew a 6-0 lead in the decisive fifth game of the NL division series against St. Louis, coming within a strike of winning before the Cardinals scored four runs in the ninth for a 9-7 victory. Back in 1925, a different Washington franchise endured a similar collapse. In Game 7 of the World Series, the Senators took a 4-0 lead over Pittsburgh and had Walter Johnson on the mound. But the Pirates were relentless, rallying for a 9-7 victory to win the title. BOOKENDS OF A DYNASTY?: The New York Yankees began their run of four titles in five years with a victory over Atlanta in the 1996 World Series. They evened that series by rallying from a 6-0 deficit in Game 4, tying it on Jim Leyritz’s three-run homer in the eighth and winning 8-6 in 10 innings.
Nelson beats B.V.
FROM PAGE 11 Nelson jumped out to a 2-0 first-period lead on goals from former Trail Smoke Eater Linden Horswill, and Aaron Dunlop, but the Hawks would battle back iwth a pair of overtime goals from Bell and Calvin to tie it at 2-2 midway through the second period. Yet, Dunlop would strike again, netting his second goal of the game and the winner at 6:41. Alex Wilkinson added an insurance marker on the PP with 5:07 to go in the middle frame. The Hawks pressured in the third, but couldn’t beat Leaf goalie Tyler Moffat, and Nelson’s Travis Wellman would ice it with an empty netter with a minute left. The Leafs then suffered their first loss of the season in a 3-2 OT decision to Castlegar on Saturday, before thumping the Rebels 9-1 in their return meeting in Nelson on Sunday. The Hawks play in Creston tonight and Nelson on Friday, before returning home for a 1 p.m. game against the Kimberley Dynamiters at the Hawks Nest on Sunday.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - PBS is setting the table for the “Downton Abbey” feast ahead with a preview special planned for broadcast in December. PBS’ “Masterpiece” says “Return to Downton Abbey” will air Dec. 1 with what’s billed as “a tantalizing taste” of the upcoming season, which begins Jan. 5. It also will look at the series’ past three seasons. Susan Sarandon serves as host for the special, a mix of behind-the-scenes footage, clips of favourite moments and interviews with cast members. Michelle Dockery, Hugh Bonneville, Elizabeth McGovern, Jim Carter and Shirley MacLaine are among the stars who will appear in the special. “Downton Abbey,” the wildly popular drama about British class and culture a century ago, will move into the Roaring Twenties in the new season.

‘Gravity’ stays on top
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LOS ANGELES - “Gravity” won’t be held down. The Warner Bros. astronaut adventure directed by Alfonso Cuaron and starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney landed in the top spot at the box office for the second weekend in a row, according to studio estimates Sunday. “Gravity” earned $44.3 million, raising its domestic total to $123.4 million. “They say what goes up must come down, but that’s not really true with ‘Gravity,”’ said Paul Dergarabedian, senior media analyst for boxoffice tracker Rentrak. “To have opened as big as it did last week and only drop 21 per cent, that’s really an amazing hold. It’s a direct testament to the word of mouth on the movie.” Sony’s “Captain Phillips” launched in second place with $26 million. The high seas drama directed by Paul Greengrass stars Tom Hanks as a cargo ship captain who is held captive by Somali pirates. “We think the success of ‘Gravity’ will also bode well for ‘Captain Phillips,”’ said Rory Bruer, head of distribution for Sony Pictures. “This is the extraordinary kind of film that we think audiences will flock to over the next several months moving forward.” The animated Sony movie “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2” gobbled up third place in its third weekend with $14.2 million, bringing its domestic haul to $78 million. The weekend’s only other new release, “Machete Kills,” opened in fourth place with $3.8 million.
Another ‘X-Files’ movie?
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - After 20 years, it’s possible for the details of a relationship to get fuzzy. Just ask David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson, who first premiered their roles as FBI agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully on “The X-Files” two decades ago. The series aired nine seasons and resulted in two feature films. The actors got together Saturday to mark the 20th Anniversary of the series’ premiere. They participated in a panel discussion for fans at The Paley Center for Media in New York. “All the principals are on board,” including “X-Files” creator Chris Carter, Duchovny said. “Gillian and I want to do it, so it’s really up to Twentieth Century Fox at this point.”

Husband allows and encourages flirting Mailbox
Marcy Sugar & Kathy Mitchell
one dinner party, she leaned across the table toward me and made a comment about my husband’s “size.” I kept my cool and replied that it wasn’t her business, but my husband, who was sitting right next to me, said nothing. At the dinners, we act like friends, but I am sorely tempted to give her a piece of my mind. My husband is getting aggravated with me. He claims he’s never cheated on me and she’s never touched him inappropriately. He says, “What am I supposed to do?” I asked him to delete her cell number, but he has not done that.
these children, tell readers to donate the toys and dolls to the local police or fire departments, hospitals or a cancer center where they will bring comfort to living children. -- Pennsylvania Dear Pennsylvania: That’s a lovely idea, and we hope people will consider it, although not everyone will want to. There is some sentiment attached to marking the actual spot where a tragedy occurred. We understand why loved ones might object to having these tributes removed, but in many instances, they are a safety hazard. Also, stuffed animals that have been left out in the rain and mud are no longer in any condition to donate. The handling of these roadside memorials belongs to the local municipality. Many allow toys, dolls, etc., to stay for a specified period of time, and then the department of
transportation removes them. In some areas, temporary memorials are replaced with a single permanent marker. The state of Delaware bans roadside memorials altogether and has instead provided the Delaware Highway Memorial Garden as
a tribute. You should inquire with your local department of transportation and suggest the objects be donated. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Worried Wife,” whose 44-yearold husband drinks too much and refuses to see a doctor or dentist. In
addition to the advice that you gave her to contact Al-Anon and make sure he has a valid will and that his affairs are in order, she also should make sure he has a lot of insurance. She will need it to raise their four children alone. -- K.

This woman is not my friend, and I think she’s crossed a line. Any suggestions? -- Had Enough Dear Enough: As always in such cases, the problem is less about the woman and more about your husband’s reaction. He allows her flirting and even encourages her, and then becomes annoyed with you for doubting him. It undermines your trust. There is no reason for him to have her phone number in his contact list.

One time, on New Year’s Eve, I saw my husband put his arm around her waist as she moved to the music with another man. I watched (humiliated) as the three of them swayed back and forth. I assume it was the alcohol that prompted him to do this. However, it apparently fueled her fire. At
