Minister responds to boundary plan BY SHERI REGNIER Times Staff
A ministry letter sent to the Beaver Valley communities set off alarm bells and has a regional district director concerned. Coralee Oakes, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development encourages both Trail and the valley communities to find a workable solution for the city’s proposed boundary expansion. For the most part, Oakes suggests the opposing sides arrive at a fair fiscal outcome before issues are brought before her ministry for subregional discussion. Although Oakes writes ministry staff would be “happy” to become involved, the letter addressed to the Beaver Valley has Ali Grieve, Area A’s director troubled. Grieve delivered that message during the community recreation consultation on Jan. 21, when she stated that 70 per cent of recreational funding comes from the industrial tax base in Area A. She read Oakes’ reply which stated, “The province of British Columbia would not support a proposal which would impose significantly higher costs on the resident of the Beaver Valley for the same level of service.” “This is troublesome for me and should be for you,” Grieve told the crowd of 200 residents.

Crowds come out for Rossland carnival BY ART HARRISON Times Staff
Maybe it was the lack of fresh snow that convinced some to forego their usual winter activities on the slopes or in the backcountry this year ... perhaps it was the slightly overcast skies, with only occasional tempting hints of precipitation that prompted crowds to stay in town. But whatever the reason, the turnout for the 117th Rossland Winter Carnival seemed to be particularly strong last weekend as people gathered at venues around the town to take in their favourite events and entertainment at the annual celebration. Crowds lined Columbia Ave. Friday night to take in the brief, but frequently entertaining, Carnival Parade, with the usual combination of disarmingly cute kids, ski racers, costumed community
volunteers, and, for some reason this year, farmyard animals, in the person of a trio of small donkeys that charmed children along the route. There was no shortage of live music to choose from over the weekend, with as many as four separate venues including The Flying Steamshovel with its annual add-on to the carnival, the threenight, Blizzard Music Festival. Snow shredders from around the Kootenays showed up for the Wild in the Street Jib Jam Saturday, with skiers and boarders riding the rails and launching themselves into the air for some impressive aerobatics on the closed off section of Queen Street dedicated to the competition. While there may have been a lack of the much vaunted “pow” over the weekend for skiers, Red Mountain Resort was busy over the four-day festival with a
variety of races, activities, and entertainment, including the Saturday evening Fun Night, with free night skiing and boarding, skating, bonfires, and kids movies and crafts in the lodge for when the little ones got cold. Of course, what was possibly the largest draw of the weekend was the annual Sonny Samuelson Bobsled race on Spokane Street Saturday morning with an estimated 1,000 plus spectators on hand to cheer their support for the 28 teams of competitors, hurtling down the icy six-block race track on home-made sleds at speeds topping 70 kilometres per hour. Sliding into first was Rossland’s Alboholics, featuring the Albo family trio of Darrin, Riley and Sara teamed with Keenan Pasturshuk, clocking a combined two-run time of 73.44 seconds.

Cinderella’s Closet will return next year BY VALERIE ROSSI Times Staff
A first-ever fairy tale event captured the spirit of giving in Greater Trail with some lucky girls taking home their future grad dresses at a fraction of the cost, according to event organizer Lisa Frisk. Last week's Cinderella's Closet went off without a hitch, only not all the maidens in the land got their invite or could work it into their busy schedules. But the buzz is set to continue with another event of this kind being planned for the fall, giving the next batch of Grade 12 girls ample time to score a gem at the show instead of spending too much on a dress worn once. “All we needed was more girls, which I think we'll totally get next time,” said Frisk. “Now everyone kind of knows what it's about and what they missed out on.” About 65 people attended the used dress sale that also included a fashion show hosted See DRESS, Page 3

‘It’s the passion’ FROM PAGE 1 Right on the Albo’s tail, at 73.47 seconds was the S.S. Instigators, a local team that clocked 36.47 seconds in their second run, the fastest time recorded during the event. Rounding out the top three with a combined time of 75.13 seconds, was a foursome from Woody’s Tire and Auto. Despite the dangerous slide down icy streets, the event continues to attract brave souls. “It’s the passion ... it’s almost like the Olympics,” said John Marion, a member of the 10-year veteran team, The Eager Beavers. “This is what makes winter carnival. You don’t see this anywhere else.”

Director expresses concern over letter
FROM PAGE 1 “Oakes implies that a tax increase would be acceptable as long as it is not significant,” she continued. “I would never support a tax increase for any residents in the Beaver Valley for a boundary expansion.” In a similar letter issued to Trail, Oakes acknowledges the boundary extension is based on economic sustainability for the region and development of lands, but states, “It is important for the city to work to reach an agreement at the local level to mitigate impacts to RDKB services,” adding, “However if an impasse is reached the ministry may provide assistance.” “Over all, she (Oakes) was supportive,” said David Perehudoff, Trail’s chief administrative officer. “But did note the need to appropriately deal with regional services.” It’s been eight months since Trail council passed a motion to proceed with the process to expand city boundaries to include 66 parcels of land that run south in Area A through Columbia Gardens to the international border. At stake is a piece of one of the largest industrial tax bases in the region, the Waneta Dam, a utility that increased in overall assessed value by $24 million last year, due in part to the ongoing expansion project, according to BC Assessment. Within the next month, the city is expecting to iron out details in all outstanding issues, including mitigation to the regional district
before formally submitting the expansion proposal to the province. Trail’s final proposal package includes a summary of responses received through the referral process and any action that has or will be taken, including the city’s financial offer to deal with mitigating the regional services, and the proposed conditions to be included in the Supplementary Letters Patent (SLP). The boundary of every municipality is permanent and defined in a document known as Letters Patent. SLP refers to the amendment of the description to add or delete properties, which can only be changed by Cabinet order. However, before the proposal reaches that point, Oakes and her staff may indeed become part of the mitigation process because according to Barry McLean’s report, the disparity of lost tax dollars is much higher than outlined in an earlier expansion study completed by Urban Systems on behalf of Trail. McLean, manager of operations for the Regional District of Central Kootenay, was summoned by the RDKB to respond to Trail’s expansion proposal. According to McLean, the proposed expansion area represents a significant portion of Area A’s assessment values and the actual loss of taxable assessment is 57 per cent, not 33 per cent as noted in Trail’s report.
Dress donations always welcomed
FROM PAGE 1 by Frisk, a Trail esthetician who spearheaded the occasion, and Allison McCarthy of the Canadian Cancer Society. The only problem was most who attended were family members cheering on this year’s Trail ambassador program candidates and their friends who modelled about 40 gowns alongside current Silver City royalty Miss Trail Cheyanne Friess and princess Emily Dawson. The 11 dresses sold brought in nearly $600, which has been donated to the Canadian Cancer Society on Rossland Avenue in the Gulch. “Even with those few dresses it was so worth it because they were so happy and excited that
they could get a dress under their budget,” added Frisk. She has stored the remaining dresses and plans to host a dress drive ahead of the next event to welcome dress donations well ahead of time. Frisk scored a pale blue dress with ruffled sleeves and a few bedazzled gems later she was dressed to impress. Some said she almost looked like Cinderella herself. “Some of the moms bought dresses, nevermind their kids,” she laughed. “And the girls that found dresses, it was so cute because they tried it on and then they were just walking around the event in this dress that they were buying.”

Christine Kowal is finishing up her last week at Kootenay Savings Credit Union in Trail, before travelling across two continents this weekend to begin an adventure and a new job in the Middle East.
Middle East next stop for KSCU employee By Sheri Regnier Times Staff
An out of the blue phone call has a local family packing their bags and jumping two continents to begin a new life in the Middle East. When Christine Kowal picked up the receiver last fall, she never expected a job recruiter from Saudi Arabia would be on the other end of the line offering the job opportunity of a lifetime. It turns out that a Dubai agency happened to pull up a resume Kowal posted on a job board a few years ago, and was following up with an offer. “He said, ‘I see you have an old resume,’ and asked if I was still interested in an international experience,” she said. “I said absolutely, throw my hat in the ring.” Within weeks, Kowal was flown to Bahrain for a face-to-face interview in November, with BNP Parabis, a French bank with its corporate investment arm based in the Middle Eastern island country. With five years managing training and development at the Trail branch of Kootenay Savings Credit Union, the B.C. native seized her chance to try something new, and accepted the permanent position as vice president of learning and development at the international bank. After she completes an orientation in Paris next month, Kowak, who has a bachelor of commerce, specializing in human resources and an MBA from Royal Roads University in Victoria, will assume responsibility for the ongoing education of 700 employees working in BNP branches in the Middle East, Morocco, and Africa. “I first dipped my feet into this world as a training specialist in northern health,” she explained. “That’s where Kootenay Savings found me and how I went down this road,” Kowal said. “The fact that a small town girl from the Kootenays can be set up for an opportunity like this is just amazing.”

Since accepting the job, which is more than 7,000 miles from her Castlegar home, Kowal has been inundated with questions about her decision to relocate to the Muslim country. A common question she faces is, ‘What are you thinking?’, because the move includes selling the family house; streamlining possessions to ship to Bahrain; her husband’s cessation of work as a paralegal in Nelson; and packing for a nineyear-old son and toddler daughter. “It’s been funny since receiving this “Some people offer,” said Kowal. have asked if I am “Some people have asked if I am insane bringing bringing my family over to insane my family over to a place like that. a place like that,” she explained.”And And others wish others wish they they could come could come in my in my suitcase.” suitcase.” When she travChristine Kowal elled to the country last year, Kowal expected to be treated with respect in the work place, noting that English is the first language in the Middle East business world. However, she wasn’t certain what to expect or how she would feel, as a western woman, walking down the street alone. “Bahrain is a forward thinking and modern country,” said Kowal. “The county is as tolerant as it gets in the Middle East and I am not expected to cover myself. I never felt unsafe and the Arab men were welcoming and friendly, and not any of the stereotypes people think about the Middle East.” Kowal and her family will live in Manama, a city described as an economy-based centre in the See BAHRAIN, Page 10

Provincial
Environment assessment process to be reviewed
THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER British Columbia Premier Christy Clark has ordered a review of the province’s environmental assessment process, saying the current system has become too cumbersome. However, Clark revealed few details about the evaluation project she’s handed over to Environment Minister Mary Polak to undertake. The premier made
the announcement at a mineral exploration convention in Vancouver on Monday, in the middle of a speech about extending a $10-million tax credit program to B.C.’s mining industry for another year. She said environmental reviews of major projects are crucial, and while the current process is rigorous and transparent, the province’s environmental assessment office can “do better.”
“In my view, it is better to do the hard and rigorous work at the front end and get it right, than to endure decades of questions and debate in acrimony about why and how it was done,” Clark said. “My view is if a project is environmentally unsustainable and the wrong project, we should say no. If it’s a project that is environmentally sound, we should say yes,” she said. “But I think over

Court restores rights to teachers THE CANADIAN PRESS VANCOUVER - A court has fined the British Columbia government $2 million dollars, while restoring working conditions to public school teachers in a searing judgment against the government. It’s the second time the court has struck down provincial legislation around class size and composition, saying it interfered with the union’s freedom of association. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Susan Griffin ruled the government didn’t negotiate in good faith with the union after a court decision struck down the original legislation in 2011. In a ruling released today, Griffin said the government’s strategy was to provoke a strike by the union, giving the government support for imposing legislation on the B.C. Teachers Federation. The judge says today’s decision means the deleted terms in the teachers’ collective agreement, such as class size, have been retroactively restored and can also be the subject of future bargaining. Griffin said it was appropriate to award damages of $2 million against the government in relation to its unlawful actions in extending the unconstitutional prohibitions.

Authorities are investigating the cause of a fire that broke out in a Kamloops pulp mill. The city’s fire department was called to Domtar mill Saturday night after flames started burning around the electrical transformer. Spokeswoman Bonnie Skeene says there were no injuries and the flames were doused within a couple of hours. She says no evacuation was necessary, though production was halted for 12 hours. Mill safety has been an ongoing issue since an explosion ripped through a sawmill in Burns Lake two years ago, killing two people and injuring 20 more.

National Manitoba
Residents stay warm THE CANADIAN PRESS WINNIPEG - Many of the 4,000 residents of southeastern Manitoba affected by a natural gas pipeline explosion proved to be creative and resilient as they entered a third day without heat Monday. Steve Cope was using an electric fireplace and two portable space Briefs heaters to keep his two-storey home in Niverville warm as the temperature outside dipped to near -30 C. “One (space heater) we’ve got actually facing the cold-air return on our furnace, so it’s kind of blowing that air into that cold-air return. And we have the fan running on the furnace so it’s kind of circulating throughout the house,” Cope said. TransCanada PipeLines vice-president Karl Johannson said the company hoped to have natural gas service restored to everyone by midday Tuesday. He suggested some communities could have gas back by Monday night. The explosion happened at a TransCanada valve site near St. Pierre-Jolys early Saturday. It sent a huge fireball into the sky and forced the temporary evacuation of several nearby roads.

Saskatchewan
Oil boom for province THE CANADIAN PRESS REGINA - The Saskatchewan government says the province’s oil patch is pumping out production like never before. It says oil production last year set a new record of 177.9 million barrels, or 487,400 barrels per day. That’s up from the previous record of 172.9 million barrels or 472,500 barrels per day set in 2012. Drilling activity also set a new record. The province says 2,433 horizontal oil wells were drilled last year, surpassing the 2,036 horizontal oil wells drilled in 2012.
Ontario
Second case of pig virus THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Officials in Ontario have confirmed a second case of a highly contagious pig virus that has ravaged herds across the U.S. The province’s chief veterinarian announced the discovery Monday afternoon, just days after the first case of porcine epidemic diarrhea was confirmed in a farm in southwestern Ontario. Greg Douglas said the latest case, and a third case which is still under investigation, were found in the Chatham-Kent region. Hundreds of piglets - nearly 100 per cent of those between two and five days old - have died at the first farm, Douglas said. Officials say the virus does not affect food safety and is not a risk to human health.
Flaherty predicts balanced budget by 2015 THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - Finance Minister Jim Flaherty will deliver his new budget on Feb. 11, in the middle of the Sochi Winter Olympics. He is playing down suggestions that he could balance the books this year - a year earlier than expected. He hasn’t closed the door entirely, however. The government takes a “substantial” $3-billion adjustment for risk, he said Monday after a meeting with economists. But this year has seen major floods in Alberta and New Brunswick, so “we’re being prudent.” Ottawa took a $3
billion hit with the Alberta floods, he said. So he has to build in a cushion to respond to unforeseen events. “We know we’re on track to balance in 2015-16 and we said when we ran the deficit, because of the great recession, we said we would balance in the medium term and we’ll balance in the medium term,” he said. “But we’re going to be cautious in the meantime.” He told the Commons the new budget will continue to focus on jobs and economic growth. Royal Bank economist Craig Wright said he thinks it’s possible
for the Tories to eliminate the deficit in the 2014-15 fiscal year, which starts in April. “Our forecast, we would not be shocked to see them come into balance that year if they chose to,” he said. Flaherty is projecting a deficit of $5.5 billion and there’s $3 billion in reserves, Wright said. “Then you just need a small swing on any of these big measures - either revenue or expenditure - to get back in balance.” The Harper government has long touted its economic stewardship as a key strength, something Flaherty said will be
Tories target EI cheats at the border
THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA - The Conservative government is looking at using a new information-sharing program with the Americans to catch employment insurance cheats. The entry-exit tracking program could help police various social benefit programs as well as identify people travelling abroad to engage in terrorism, says a Canada Border Services Agency briefing note. The federal privacy commission-
er has already expressed concern about the program, saying there should be strict limits on the use of personal information gathered through the initiative. The note, prepared for Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney, claims the system could “generate long-term savings” by helping zero in on people receiving employment insurance or child family tax benefits while absent from Canada, contrary to program rules.
underscored in the next budget. But he wouldn’t give any hints as to what the document might hold. He has, however, played down the idea that there might be some goodies coming, saying such spending will have to wait until after the books are balanced. He joked that he’s not a big spender, but there may be some Conservatives who would spend more. “I’m not going to spend a lot of money, but I’m not the only person who makes these decisions,” Flaherty said. It’s expected that a better balance sheet in 2015 will allow the government to pay for some long-promised campaign plums, including income splitting for tax pur-
poses. Flaherty said he will post a surplus in 2015, but won’t do it by raising taxes or cutting transfers to the provinces. The Tories are focused on balancing the books, no matter what the cost to people, said NDP finance critic Peggy Nash. They’re spending less on infrastructure and health transfers to the provinces, she said. There are still hundreds of thousands more unemployed than when Prime Minister Stephen Harper took power in 2006. The austerity measures are contributing to the low performance of the economy, she said. “Their approach is not getting the economy moving again,” Nash said.

Tug of war over transportation taxes
P
remier Christy Clark has set off a storm of protest by imposing a referendum on new Lower Mainland transportation improvements, timed with the province-wide municipal elections on Nov. 15. Even if you don’t live in Metro Vancouver, you’re not immune from this long-running saga. Provincial and federal governments use your tax dollars for the big stuff, including the SkyTrain Canada Line to Vancouver airport and the South Fraser Perimeter Road, a new truck route to port facilities at Tsawwassen. Clark has promised a bridge replacement for the George Massey tunnel under the Fraser River, which may or may not be tolled like the Port Mann bridge. The patchwork of Lower Mainland tolls is a growing political liability for the B.C. Liberal government, and if further tolls are avoided, major
works elsewhere in the province may be delayed as the budget is eaten up by the big cities. Clark announced the Massey tunnel replacement in a September 2012 speech to the Union of B.C. Municipalities. In the same speech, she also pledged to complete the four-laning of the last 240 km of the TransCanada Highway from Kamloops to the Alberta border. T hat’s one of the most mountainous stretches of highway in Canada, and the province’s cost was estimated at the time to be $650 million over 10 years. Time will tell if that promise is kept. Transportation Minister Todd Stone inherited the mess left behind by former minister Kevin Falcon, who took transit authority away from Metro Vancouver politicians. He appointed a board of experts and set up a toothless “mayors’ coun-

cil” to rubber-stamp their decisions, after forcing through the Canada Line ahead of a long-promised transit extension to the east. Local politicians wrangled for years over that eastern extension. They finally settled on surface light rail, only to be overruled by the province, which wanted the vastly more expensive SkyTrain. The latest rebuke to the mayors’ council was when they decided not to proceed with a costly new electronic fare card sys-
tem. Falcon reversed that one after taking a junket to London and falling in love with their “Oyster card” subway system. All the glitches from TransLink’s new “Compass card” program will be encountered this summer, just before those mayors go to the polls to face voter wrath. Speaking of reversals, Stone is now demanding the mayors come up with their list of priorities for new projects. They are expected to believe their choices won’t be overruled again. Stone correctly notes that Vancouver wants SkyTrain on Broadway, Surrey wants new surface light rail, and other Lower Mainland communities want new road and bridge works. Local governments have a long history of parochial squabbling, getting their pet projects done and then suddenly developing the urge to rein in spending once it’s
time to dig deep for their neighbours. Lower Mainland taxpayers are weary and confused by all this reorganizing and in-fighting. Many likely believe that it is their regional government that has imposed the Port Mann bridge tolls, when in fact that is a provincial highway project over which they had no say. Clark has made it clear there is no going back from a November referendum on new regional transportation financing tools, a promise explicit in the B.C. Liberal election platform. She hopes it will increase the dismal voter turnout for local votes. If it does that, it may be worth it. Right now, civic elections are dismal affairs, with voter turnout and awareness of local issues drifting from bad to worse. Tom Fletcher is legislature reporter and columnist for Black Press.

due to the dedication and hard work of the seniors’ coordinator, Vickie Fitzpatrick. More support for initiatives has come from the establishment of community partnerships with the Beaver Valley Blooming Society, the West Kootenay Volunteer Driver Program and local citizens. A “Growing Our Roots” community garden in downtown Fruitvale was created and will be maintained with help from children and youth. The Age Friendly program also partnered with Fruitvale Elementary to develop a seniors’ craft and knowledge centre in the school with the New Horizons for Seniors funding. The intention is for seniors to teach youth their skills and knowledge and for the youth to teach computer skills to the seniors. The “Sharing Our Roots” centre began development at the school in November and is off to a very successful start. Fruitvale Mayor Patricia Cecchini presented the highlights of the Age Friendly Beaver Valley program to the Small Talk community forum at the 2013 Union of BC Municipalities conference this fall. She calls the program a win-win-win situation for all involved. “It has drawn our community closer together, developed partnerships, provided healthy, active programs for seniors, created a buzz in the Beaver Valley and given us recognition at the federal, provincial and local level,” she said. I would like to congratulate all those involved in making this program possible. Bravo, Beaver Valley Alex Atamanenko is the MP for BC Southern Interior
Corporations need more women at the top An editorial from the Toronto Star Well, it’s about time. A widely anticipated proposal by the Ontario Securities Commission would require public companies to disclose their policies and targets for promoting women to boards and executive ranks. The commission also wants publicly traded companies on the Toronto Stock Exchange to report on term limits for directors, which could rightly provide a shot of new talent at the top. There are no quotas or hard rules in this proposal but if it
passes, let’s hope that the commission’s rather gentle kick to the backside of the old boy’s club results in more women in top positions. After all, change is not only inevitable, it’s also good for the bottom line. According to a 2007 study of Fortune 500 firms, the addition of smart women to executive jobs or boards actually improves business. The study found that companies with women directors had a much higher return on equity, return on sales and return on invested capital. What’s not to like about
that? Since gender inclusion clearly - and unfortunately cannot be achieved without intervention, the Ontario government that pushed for these proposals should set a timeline of, say, three years to determine whether the so-called “comply or explain” approach is working. If success is sketchy, tougher rules may be needed. For now, the proposed regulations are a good way to coax the corporate elites into the 21st century. Their response will be most interesting - and very telling.

PEOPLE
OBITUARIES CRAKES, GARY ELWOOD – was born on April 7, 1942 in Klamath Falls, Oregon, and died January 13, 2014 in Ocean Ridge, Florida. As a child and young man, he lived throughout the midwest, was a high school athlete (basketball star), and became a junior high school english and history teacher. Dissatisfied with nurturing young men to be cannon fodder during the Vietnam War, he moved to British Columbia in 1972. He was a house parent at a Quaker school, janitor, rough carpenter, stone mason, and full-time dad. He loved the mountains, building an off-grid home mostly with his own hands, and was proud to leave only a small carbon footprint. He always lent a hand to neighbors and friends. He was an avid reader (over a million words a month), fixer of all things, duct tape aficionado, and adventurer. He lived life fully and went his own way. He leaves behind a loving wife, Mindy, daughter, Jenny, sister, Virginia Benson, inlaws and many friends and family who will long remember his laughter and love. A gathering to celebrate Gary’s life will be held in Rossland on Friday, January 31st, from 2:30 pm to 4:00 pm at the Rossland Light Opera Hall at 2054 Washington, Rossland, BC. As an expression of sympathy, donations may be made in Gary’s memory to a charity of your choice. *** COLLINS, AMY – was born November 13, 1920 in Springside, Saskatchewan to Jack and Doll Jenkins. She passed away on January 23, 2014 at the age of 93. Amy was happily married to Harry Collins for 53 years and they had 8 children together. Harry predeceased her in 1994.

TIM JONES
Thousands line street for funeral procession
THE
THE CANADIAN PRESS NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C. - One of the best memories Tim Jones’s son had of his father, the tireless leader of the volunteer-run North Shore Search and Rescue who died last weekend, was of a Father’s Day they spent rescuing an injured climber together two years ago. Sitting in the comfort of his dad’s house, Curtis Jones recalls the pair getting a distress call and within hours were airlifting a man screaming from pain and wracked with hypothermia off a steep North Shore mountain slope with a 600-foot drop below. Situations like that were just one example of how Tim Jones, who took part in over 1,400 rescue missions saving countless hikers, skiers and snowboarders, was remembered during a memorial on Saturday - a man for whom family and saving lives were alway top of mind. “No matter who we were, he wouldn’t hesitate to put his life on the line for any of us,” said Curtis, whose voice was cracking. “He was our guardian standing watch for all those who wandered astray.” Hundreds gathered to attend the memorial of the man who had served with North Shore Rescue for 25 years and thousands lined the streets Saturday to watch a funeral procession led by an ambulance that bore the 57-year-old’s ashes.

FROM PAGE 3 Persian Gulf, and the capital and largest city in the 33-island archipelago. “Another question I have been getting a lot of is, ‘Why am I going there for banking?’” she said. In 1932, Bahrain was the first country to discover oil on the Arabian side of the Gulf. Since that time, under the rule of the royal Al Khalifa monarchy, the Kingdom of Bahrain has shifted its focus from refineries, to diversifying the economy, and offers a tax-free haven in a large financial services base. “They realized the oil reserves wouldn’t last forever,” said Kowal. “By planning ahead there are 320 financial institutions on this little island of Bahrain and it has become the financial services capital in the Middle East.” Kowal’s last day at the Trail bank is Friday, and Saturday she and her family will hop on a plane in Spokane and fly to Denver before crossing the pond to England, and landing in Bahrain Jan. 31 at 8 p.m. Her first work day begins Sunday (Feb. 1) and although the hours are slightly longer than the usual nine-to-five in North America, the banks are closed Friday and Saturday to allow for religious observance of the primarily Shia Islam population. “I am really interested to learn how I will have to shift my way of teaching to accommodate for the cultural differences,” said Kowal. “But my position at Kootenay Savings gave me the experience I need and is aligned with what they are looking for in the Middle East. That is really what has set me up for success.”

Shorthanded Smoke Eaters can’t keep pace Lockey locks Paralympics

Trail went with just three lines and AP Jared Marchi in Saturday’s 5-2 loss against the Interior division leading Vees.

up Sochi spot
By Times Staff Rossland’s Ian Lockey will join fellow Golden City resident Kimberly Joines on the slopes in Sochi for the 2014 Paralympic Winter Games, Canada Snowboard and the Canadian Paralympic Committee announced at Big White Monday. Whistler’s Tyler Mosher and John Leslie of Arnprior, Ont. round out the para-snowboard team, that finished in the top 10 at World Cup races at Big White Saturday and Sunday. Leslie raced to third on Sunday, behind the United States’ Michael Shay and Evan Strong while Lockey finished seventh. On Saturday in soft snow conditions, it was an American sweep with Shea first, Keith Gabel second and Strong third. Leslie took fifth, Mosher sixth and Lockey 10th. The team is coached by head coach Candice Drouin of Banff and technical coach Dave Hugill of Whistler. While para-snowboard is a new Paralympic sport that will debut in Sochi, the nominated Canadians have years of experience under their boards with numerous international medals to show for it. Mosher was the 2009 para-snowboard world champion, has won three IPC World Cup gold medals and was a Vancouver 2010 Paralympian in para-Nordic skiing. Lockey won a world championship bronze medal in 2009. Leslie is in his first year on the World Cup circuit and just last weekend won his first IPC World Cup medals, two bronze, at Copper Mountain, where Lockey placed fifth. “It’s quite overwhelming to believe that 10 years ago snowboarding for people with a disability didn’t exist and now we’re going to Sochi and the first ever Paralympic Games,” said Mosher in the release. “It’s a true honor to be able to represent your country and exhibit your best effort towards excellence.” Joines was named to the para-alpine team last week, and has been on the podium for each one of her World Cup and Nor Am races this year. The Sochi 2014 Paralympic Winter Games will take place from March 7 to 16.

B.C. skiers round out Canada’s alpine Olympic team
THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO - Ben Thomsen and Morgan Pridy were among nine skiers formally nominated Monday to the Canadian team for the upcoming Sochi Olympics. Thomsen, from Invermere, finished 12th in a World Cup downhill over the weekend to meet the criteria for nomination in the final race before the qualifica-
tion window closed. Pridy, from Whistler, recorded a 21st-place finish in the super-G at Kitzbuhel, Austria. They were joined on the nomination list by Toronto’s Phil Brown, Mike Janyk of Whistler, and Trevor Philp and Brad Spence, both of Calgary. The women’s team additions included Erin Mielzynski of Collingwood, Ont., Marie-Pier Prefontaine
of Saint-Sauveur, Que., and Elli Terwiel of Sun Peaks, B.C. They joined the six skiers who were nominated earlier this month: Erik Guay of Mont-Tremblant, Que., Calgary’s Jan Hudec, Vancouver’s Manuel Osborne-Paradis, Marie-Michele Gagnon of Lac-Etchemin, Que., Britt Phelan of Mont-Tremblant and Larisa Yurkiw of Owen Sound, Ont.

first-period tallies from Taylor Stafford and Jeremy Lucchini. Riley Brandt would extend it to 4-0 before the Rockets got on the board with a shorthanded marker from Ian Desrosier. Bowen Alcock cut the lead to two, but Brandt and Swanson would restore the four goal lead with third period goals. The injured Dan Holland returned to the Hawks line up and pitched in with two assists, while Andrew Clark added three helpers for the home team. The Nitehawks outshot the Rockets 47-27 with Brett Clark getting the win, and
clinching a playoff spot for the Hawks who lead the Neil Murdoch division with 69 points. The Hawks play the Creston Valley Thunder Cats tonight at the Beaver Valley Arena at 7 p.m. Neil Murdoch Notes:
The Nelson Leafs also clinched a playoff spot with a 9-0 victory over the Rebels Friday before falling to the Grand Forks Border Bruins 5-2 Saturday. Trail native and Leafs’ forward Jamie Vlanich took over sole possession of top spot in the KIJHL scoring race, with a six-point night (three goals, three assists) against
Castlegar in a 9-0 drubbing and a goal and an assist versus the Border Bruins in a 5-2 loss. The eight-point weekend gives the 20-year-old Vlanich 30 goals and 51 assists in 38 games this season. Meanwhile the Spokane Braves went on the warpath this weekend winning all three games by a combined 17-6. Coupled with two Rebels losses, the Braves are just one point back of Castlegar for third place in the Neil Murdoch division. Grand Forks is six points back of the Braves for the final playoff spot but have four games in hand.

Smokies look to cash in Cents
FROM PAGE 11 Todd faced 38 shots and was named the games’ third star, while Surrey goaltender Devon Fordyce earned the shut out stopping 31 on the night and first-star honours. The Smoke Eaters travel to Merritt to take on the Centennials tonight. Merritt is in fifth place in the Interior division, and is battling for a playoff spot with Salmon Arm. The Cents have 49 points (and currently sit three points back of the SilverBacks which hold down the fourth and final playoff spot. Former Smoke Eaters Wayland Williams and Shane Poulsen patrol the blueline for the Cents along with Dane Birks, the Pittsburgh Penguins’ 2013 sixth-round draft pick. Merritt has also acquired the rights of former Beaver Valley Nitehawk goalie Jarrod Schamerhorn. The 18-year-old Kelowna native played in 10 games with the Portland Winterhawks and two with the Lethbridge Hurricanes before heading to Merritt. Devin Kero, the most recent Player of the Week and Michigan Tech commit, has shouldered most of the goaltending duties for the Cents this season, playing in 34 of 45 games with a 2.39 GAA and a .920 save percentage. The game goes tonight at 7 p.m. in Merritt. Trail’s next home game is against the same Centennials on Saturday at the Cominco Arena at 7:30 p.m.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - The Kevin Hart comedy “Ride Along” continued to speed through a typically quiet box-office frame, while the monster thriller “I, Frankenstein” couldn’t be roused from the dead. Universal’s buddy cop comedy “Ride Along,” cruised to the top of the box office again, taking in $21.2 million in its second weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday. For the second weekend in a row, Universal claimed no. 1 and no. 2 at the box office, with the Afghanistan war film “Lone Survivor” earning $12.6 million in its fifth week. “I, Frankenstein” had a sizable budget estimated at $65 million, yet opened with just $8.3 million.

‘The View’
Rosie returns – for a day THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK - Proving nothing is impossible in the world of daytime television, Rosie O’Donnell is coming back to “The View,” at least for a day. The show announced Monday that O’Donnell will be a guest on the daytime gabfest on Feb. 7. O’Donnell’s tenure as a panelist on the ABC show seven years ago was notably stormy. O’Donnell said after leaving that she had experienced something like post-traumatic stress disorder, and show creator Barbara Walters said she resented the way O’Donnell dumped on the show. Walters said Monday that she has great affection for O’Donnell. She called O’Donnell a lively and engaging guest who is a part of the show’s history. This is Walters’ last season on the show.

that. My question is: Should I tell him about the birth control? I’m not sure what it would accomplish. I’m afraid of his reaction to finding out, and divorce terrifies me. -- Torn Between What Is Right and What Is Safe Dear Torn: Regardless of what you may have told your husband eight years ago, if you allowed him to have the impression that you were willing to get pregnant again, then obviously, you have been dishonest. This was grossly unfair to him. But you cannot undo the past, and with your husband’s anger issues, we can understand why there seems
are right that your sister-in-law should reciprocate, but it doesn’t matter. She isn’t going to do it. Your choice is simply which gettogethers you host and which belong to your in-laws. If you remove your sister-in-law from the hosting equation, you will be less resentful. You can cut back on the number of times you do this or ask your sister-in-law to reciprocate by cooking a dish or bringing the appetizers, but you cannot force her to open her home. Dear Annie: I want to thank “Still Suffering” for the gut-wrenching letter she wrote about being abused by her uncle. Any of us who have lived for years with the feelings of guilt and shame caused by being molested by a relative could have written that letter. When I was 10, I was molested by my older brother for several years. I am now in my 70s and have never fully
recovered from the damage it caused. For years, I kept my filthy little secret. Last year, my brother died, and I did not go to his memorial service. Since then, I have told several family members. None of them was surprised, and all were support-
ive of me. Although I am overwhelmed with the love and support, I will take this scar to my grave. I hope that others who are victims of molesters will seek help and speak up early and not wait for the pervert to be out of
their lives forever. -Feeling Better Now Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column. Please email your questions to anniesmailbox@comcast.net

no point in telling him now. But a marriage that isn’t good to begin with is not likely to get better without professional assistance. Decide whether divorce terrifies you so much that you are willing to live like this for another 40 years. Dear Annie: My husband’s sister chooses not to take turns hosting family get-togethers. She has a beautiful home, but claims she does not have any “social living space.” She lives next door to her parents, so either they host, or we do it at our home. Her parents even host her children’s birthday parties. She just gets to show up. There is a lot of time, energy, planning, preparation and cost associated with having everyone over, and I feel she should reciprocate. However, my husband and in-laws do not see this as a problem. Am I asking too much? -Olympia, Wash. Dear Olympia: You

Dear Annie: I’m 46 years old, college educated, with no children. I recently celebrated my 20th wedding anniversary. It’s not what I would call a good marriage. My husband occasionally has fits of anger and has been verbally abusive. More than eight years ago, I had a miscarriage. My husband wanted to keep trying. He repeatedly has said that he can’t imagine a life without children. I told him that having children is not going to happen, and that if he wants a divorce over this, I won’t fight him. He is welcome to find someone else to have children with. What I did not tell him is that soon after the miscarriage, I started taking birth control pills and continue to do so. I feel guilty that I might have misled him in that he may think there is a chance for children, although I would hope that at my age he would be past
