No lights at Victoria Ave. and 2nd St. for three days FOR THE TOWNSMAN

Updates being made to the traffic signals at Victoria Avenue and 2nd Street South in Cranbrook will mean the signals will be not operating on Wednesday May 14, Thursday May 15, and Friday, May 16, 2014. Motorists using the intersection of Victoria Avenue and 2nd Street South during this period are advised that this intersection will be designated a four-way stop 24 hours per day for the duration of the work. Temporary stops signs will be in place. The updates to the intersection being made by Public Works include the installation of new traffic flow cameras and a new computer operating system. The City of Cranbrook apologizes for any inconvenience the work may cause.

Local mom shortlisted in hunting contest SALLY MACDONALD Townsman Staff

A Cranbrook woman is vying to be named Extreme Huntress 2015. Nikita Dalke is one of 20 semi-finalists in the competition that looks for a female hunter who will be a role model for other women who participate in hunting. “The Extreme Huntress is of course a woman that hunts, but hunts hard and puts lots of passion and effort into it and truly loves the sport,” said Nikita. “(She) also understands the importance of hunting for the management and conservation of our wildlife. She

would be someone that supports all hunters and helps promote women being outdoors and getting kids involved as well.” Online voting for the semi-finalists will continue until the end of May, and then the six finalists with the highest number of votes will win a ticket to the 777 Ranch in Dallas, Texas, where they will compete for the title of Extreme Huntress 2015. The contest, which is held in July, will pit the six women against one another in a hunting skills competition. The Extreme Huntress is the fete of a banquet at the

Dallas Safari Club, and receives a sculpture and prize package. “It could possibly open a lot of doors for me in the hunting industry as well,” said Nikita. The Cranbrook woman, with two kids aged six and three, grew up competing in dressage and showjumping competitions. Her grandmother hunted and would take Nikita out when she was young, but it wasn’t until Nikita met her husband Kyle in 2005 that she started hunting herself.

No crosswalk for Baker and 17th Arne Petryshen Townsman Staff

There will be no additional crosswalk at the intersection of Baker Street and 17th Avenue S. At the April 28 meeting, city council followed a Cranbrook in Motion committee recommendation that it should not build a third crosswalk at the intersection, which is to the southwest corner of Mount Baker Secondary. Coun. Denise Pallesen, who sits on the Cranbrook in Motion committee, noted that it had already looked at

sidewalks at this particular intersection, but revisited it after receiving the ICBC Traffic Control Review and the Street Sign and Road Marking Manual. “This is where you have an engineer and ICBC look at every single intersection and road sign and set of lights to make sure that they are compliant with the B.C. Standards,” Pallesen said. “We’re trying really hard to follow the guidelines, so there’s a standardization for the entire city.” She said the standardization will happen

as the projects and renewals come up, and won’t happen overnight. Coun. Diana J. Scott agreed that there should be no additional crosswalk. “I work in that area and we already have a crosswalk going in each direction of the road, and to have two, side-by-side, parallel, when they are six steps from each other doesn’t really make sense,” Scott said. “Then also, it impedes a lot of traffic.” She said if people don’t want to take those extra steps and would

rather cross where there’s no crosswalk, then they are taking their safety into their own hands. She said the standardization makes sense as well. Coun. Sharon Cross wondered about the crosswalks on 14th Avenue and Baker, which are parallel and don’t meet the ICBC guidelines. Pallesen replied that the crosswalks would change as they come up, so for that one they would stop maintaining one of the crosswalks. Mayor Wayne Stetski

said the 17th Avenue crosswalk is there to use, but some work is needed. “We do need to finish the sidewalk on the Mount Baker school side of the street,” Stetski said. “I think that would then encourage the use of that sidewalk. Right now that kind of ends on dirt on that Mount Baker School side.” Coun. Gerry Warner opposed the recommendation. “The more crosswalks the safer we are, but I guess I can understand what everyone else is saying,” Warner said.

Courageous IDEAL Society plans expansion in Jaffray fight comes to an end For the Townsman

An application by the IDEAL Society for an ALR Non-Farm Use in the Jaffray area was supported by the board. The society proposes to expand the residential and education components in support of the agricultural, education, arts and leisure program. The application will now proceed to the Agricultural Land Commission for consideration of approval. Board Supports Request for Action on Aquatic Invaders A letter will be sent to the Federal and Provincial Governments supporting the Okanagan Basin Water Board’s request for action to prevent invasive zebra and quagga mussels from entering B.C.

Concern Expressed Over Proposed Subdivision Letters will be sent to the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations and the Provincial Approving Officer expressing concern over a proposed subdivision at Whitetail Lake by the Whitetail Lake Land Corporation. The RDEK did not approve a previously proposed development in the same area and the board is concerned that this new proposal is being put forward under the Strata Property Act and is requesting the Ministry undertake consultation with the public and First Nations prior to considering any approvals. Transit Superstar RDEK Community Services Manager Shannon Moskal was congratulated by the Board on being named a BC Transit Superstar. Shannon works with BC Transit, our contractors and

the public using the Elk Valley, Columbia Valley and Health Connections Transit Services in the East Kootenay.

Canada Day Fireworks Planned for Fairmont A special event licence will be issued to Fairmont Hot Springs Resort for the Canada Day Fireworks celebration to be held at the Resort on July 1. Minister Thanked for Restructure Assistance Offer A letter will be sent to the Honourable Coralee Oakes, Minister of Community, Sport and Cultural Development thanking her for the offer of restructure assistance to the City of Fernie for the West Fernie restructure proposal. The Minister has offered the maximum per capita restructure assistance available. The City of Fernie is expected to review the offer at an upcoming City Council meeting and the RDEK hopes to meet with the residents of West Fernie in the first week of June to discuss the West Fernie Servicing & Restructure project. Detailed Groundwater Analysis for Windermere The Regional District of East Kootenay Board of Directors has approved $20,000 in Community Works funding for a detailed groundwater analysis and test well program in Windermere. The possibility of groundwater wells has been considered in the past and eliminated as an option after the consultant’s high level review determined there were too many risks to finding a good groundwater source that close to the lake that wasn’t under the influ-

ence of surface water. However, recently there have been two large wells drilled in Invermere and Fairmont and both of those wells have tapped into an aquifer that is not being influenced by surface water. The detailed study on the groundwater well option will provide a more definitive answer on whether this is a possibility in Windermere or not. The RDEK’s consultant will begin the analysis within the next few weeks and the report on their findings is expected to be completed by the end of the year.

Fairmont Flood & Landslide Service Following community consultation earlier this spring, the RDEK has given three readings to the Fairmont Flood & Landslide Service Establishment Bylaw. The Bylaw will now be forwarded to the Ministry of Community, Sport and Cultural Development for approval prior to coming back to the Board for adoption. Columbia Valley Recreation Funding Policy Amended The Columbia Valley Recreation Funding Policy has been amended to include the MultiUse Arts & Recreation Facility in Invermere. The amendment will see the RDEK contribute $125,000/year in Capital and Operating funding for a period of five years commencing in 2015. Directors Wendy Booth and Dee Conklin have also been appointed to the design committee for the new facility. New Emergency Program Coordinator Named Gerry Smith will take on the position of Coordinator for the

Central Subregion Emergency Program for the period May 2, 2014 to December 31, 2015. Dan Flegel has signed on as the Deputy Coordinator. Discretionary Grant in Aid (DGIA) Funding The Fernie Transportation Committee will receive $1500 from the Electoral Area A DGIA account for the Fernie Local Winter Ski Shuttle. The Cranbrook and District 4-H Club will receive $1,500 for its upcoming Show and Sale. The funding will be split equally between the DGIA accounts for Electoral Areas A, B and C, with each contributing $500. TM Roberts Elementary School will receive $1,000 from the Electoral Area C DGIA account for an upcoming Rock Lake Camping trip. The BC Seniors Games East Kootenay Zone 7 will receive $500 from the Area C DGIA account to help cover costs associated with members participating in the 2014 BC Seniors Games in Langley. The Cranbrook Lions Club will receive $1,200 from the Area C DGIA to help cover promotion costs as the club prepares to host the 2015 District Conference. The Mount Baker Grad Parent Prom Food Committee will receive $500 from the Area C DGIA to help cover food costs for graduation celebrations in June. The Windermere Valley Youth Centre Society will receive $500 from the Electoral Area F DGIA account and $250 from the Electoral Area G DGIA account to help cover costs of the guest speaker at the Society’s upcoming fundraiser.

C AROLYN GR ANT Daily Bulletin

A young girl whose fight became an inspiration passed away last week. Jenna Homeniuk, 16, lost a long, courageous battle with leukemia. Her family posted this message on the Fight for Jenna Facebook page: “Thank you all for your kind words, your love and your strength. I am sorry we cannot respond to the beautiful messages, tags and photos you have posted, but we thank you. Jenna’s spirit lives on. I feel her with me, if only I could hold her and hear her voice once more. She left us peace-

fully and she even had a smile on her face. We love you, Jenna. Fly like an eagle, my beauty.” Kimberley residents supported Jenna and her family as much as they could through the past few years. Numerous events raised thousands of dollars so her family could stay at her side. Jenna’s Celebration of Life will be held at the McKim Auditorium in Kimberley on Saturday, May 10, at 1 p.m. Her family hopes to fill the arena with friends wearing Jenna’s favourite colours, teal and mint green. Jenna’s family requests that you wear the colours in her honour.

Shout hooray for Turtle Day Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program putting on inaugural event at Elizabeth Lake, celebrating our friends the Western Painted Turtle

A ng u s G l a s s For the Townsman

The Fish and Wildlife Compensation Program (FWCP), with support from the Rocky Mountain Naturalists, is holding the first ever “Turtle Day” at Elizabeth Lake between 3 and 5 p.m. on Wednesday, May 14. The public is invited to drop in and learn more about the amazing Western Painted Turtle and, perhaps, get up close and personal with a turtle hatchling or two. “The Western Painted Turtle has a fascinating life cycle and has evolved some extraordinary adaptations to survive in this area, especially given our long winters,” says FWCP-Columbia program manager, Trevor Oussoren. “The event is a great opportunity to share this information so that we can better understand the natural history of this Blue-listed, or vulnerable, species.” The FWCP in the Columbia region is a partnership between BC Hydro, the Province of B.C., First Nations and the public to conserve and enhance fish and wildlife impacted by the construction of BC Hydro dams. Wetlands are among FWCP’s priority habitats for attention, and previous projects have helped improve turtle habitat near

The Western Painted Turtle, one of the familiar denizens of local waters. Revelstoke, Nelson, Baynes Lake, Argenta and at Elizabeth Lake. The event will feature information, displays, and spotting scopes, and will provide an opportunity for residents to talk with biologists from the Ministry of Forests, Lands, and Natural Resource Operations about Painted Turtles and other species that reside in and around, Elizabeth Lake. Cranbrook’s 2010 Citizen of the Year, and Rocky Mountain Naturalist member Art Gruenig, will be on-hand to show the turtle nesting grounds and, if timing is right, a few freshly-hatched turtles. He has been monitoring and protecting the nest-

ing area for more than twenty years and takes extreme pride in trying to give the adults and hatchlings the very best opportunity to survive and thrive. “We are hoping to show the public some turtle hatchlings but Mother Nature might not be on our side this year,” said Gruenig. “In the 20 years I have been monitoring the turtle nesting grounds, I have never seen the water levels as high as this and, right now, about two-thirds of the nesting area is submerged. At this stage we do not know what impact this might have on the survival of the hatchlings.” If you are interested learning more about, or

Huntress in hunt for top honours Continued from page 1

“Our whole lifestyle is around being outdoors: camping, hiking, fishing, hunting, and archery,” she said. “Hunting is a family activity for us; my husband hunts and we take our two kids out with us as much we can.” The East Kootenay is an idyll for hunters, Nikita went on. “There is great opportunity here to hunt animals that people can only dream of! Anything from turkey and small game to bighorn sheep and mountain goat – we have it all. And the scenery we have is to die for!” Last year, Nikita met Extreme Huntress judge Olivia Nalos Opres in Kalispell, Montana, and it spurred her to enter the competition.

“I had originally thought the contest was more for women that have hunted all over the world, but after talking to Olivia she assured me that that was not what the contest was about and that it was more about being a hunter that would be a good role model for other women and children,” said Nikita. That fits her, Nikita went on. “I have stood up against a lot of anti hunters to help support fellow hunters and to defend myself and my lifestyle. “I love teaching my kids everything I know and helping to guide them.” She tells people that hunting is important to her because it provides healthy meat, it keeps wildlife populations at healthy levels, and it teaches good values. “It teaches you important skills like survival, patience, ethics and humility,” she said. You can vote for Nikita at www.extremehuntress.com/vote and on the Extreme Huntress Facebook page.

‘Vocational school’ back in style

he B.C. government has rolled out its ambitious overhaul of the public education system, from kindergarten to graduate school, much to the horror of its leftwing establishment. The formal title is B.C.’s Skills For Jobs Blueprint: Re-engineering Education and Training. It’s designed to dovetail with the Harper regime’s Canada Job Grant that requires employers to co-sponsor training spaces so they will hire the students at the end. Elementary and middle school curriculum is being revised to increase emphasis on hands-on experience. High school and post-secondary skilled trades programs are getting more money, but it’s going to be shifted from under-performing programs that don’t lead to jobs. Premier Christy Clark took another swipe at the bias of B.C.’s system before heading to Malaysia, Singapore and Hong Kong on another liquefied natural gas sales trip. She noted that 20% of B.C. students, and nearly half of aboriginal students, don’t finish high school. “Not only are there kids who don’t graduate, there are kids who graduate, go out and get one or two credentials before they finally find their way into a skills training program,” said Clark, who had her own wander through university campuses before going into politics.

A couple of weeks ago, Simon Fraser University president Andrew Petter downplayed the “relatively small” skilled trades shortage for B.C. industry. “We should not be engaged in a zero-sum kind of battle for dollars,” Petter protested. That’s exactly what he and other university executives are looking at, and it will be based on the latest graduate employment data and labour demand forecasts. BC VIEWS One of the key architects of this sweeping plan is JesTom sica McDonald, who shook Fletcher up the public service while serving as Gordon Campbell’s deputy minister. Her report on trades training confirms what Campbell’s critics in the labour movement have long said: the government’s 10-year experiment with the Industry Training Authority is a rudderless mess. “Certain partners, particularly organized labour, feel marginalized,” McDonald wrote. “Others, particularly employers and employers’ associations, do not feel heard within the system. Over the recent past, several new directions have been introduced such as de-regulation of trades and modular training that have caused strain because they were not fully inclusive during development, were seen to benefit single interests, and they impacted the whole system.” The ITA board is being replaced, with union representation restored, and adviso-

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

ry councils from industrial employers will update their hiring needs. The B.C. Federation of Labour and the construction unions have all but abandoned the NDP after Adrian Dix’s disastrous pitch for urban anti-industry votes last year. B.C. Fed president Jim Sinclair was an early advocate for rescuing skilled trades from the second-class status they received in a culture fixated on university for two generations. That culture has created glaring problems. There are too many institutions offering the same courses. As with health care, block funding is handed out without any serious effort to measure the results. For many students, university has become an extension of adolescence, finding one’s self through philosophy or film studies. Employers get their share of blame from McDonald. Not only did they chop up trades training to make it cheaper to obtain, their preferred source of skilled workers has been to poach from other employers who paid to train them. Skills-based employment data will be made public for students to make career choices. Finally, students coming out of high school will have a way to assess what they can expect after $50,000 or more is spent on higher education. It’s about time.

Nine bands from the Interior, Kootenays as well as the Vancouver City Police Band participated in this fun-filled event. Different components of the competition were: Dress Drill and Deportment, they placed second; Perform a Skit or Sing a Song, they placed first; Perform a Dance, they placed first; Piping, they placed third; and Medley, they placed third. When the total aggregate points were added, your local pipe band came out on top, winning the trophy for Best Overall Band. Congratulations to Pipe Major Dave Ekskog and the hard-working Kimberley Pipe Band.

High school baseball wraps up with weekend tournament JESSIC A C AMPBELL

Two high school baseball teams faced off in weekend action at Confederation Park in Cranbrook. When the dust had settled, the Mount Baker Wild had prevailed over the Selkirk Storm. The two-game series took place Friday and Saturday, May 2 and 3. Prior to the series, Wild coach Josh Lowden said his team was hungry for some wins, and was looking for a good start to Friday’s game. “The boys have worked hard in practices,” Lowden said. “We were coming off two tough losses to the Kootenay Valley Rangers last Sunday (May 27). I believe the Wild will be hungry for some wins this weekend and will show up ready to play hard.” The Wild won Friday’s game 10-2 and Saturday’s 11-1. Lowden said Devon Marra led the Wild with his offensive and defensive abilities throughout

the year and this past tournament. “Tyler Thorn also pitched a full game against Selkirk for the win on Saturday,” Lowden said. “I’m very proud of the way the team rebounded from a tough loss to L.V Rodgers on the past Sunday, in order to win the last game of season against Selkirk.” Selkirk Storm coach Fraser Armstrong lamented a few mental errors that may have made a difference. “I think there were some mental errors from the team at the tournament because we played well against Nelson and managed to beat them,” Armstrong said. “We did have a string of bad luck in that first inning though and it was hard to bounce back from it.” High school aged players from the East Kootenay will now be moving on to American Legion play with the Cranbrook Bandits taking on teams from the U.S. and Alberta.

NHL PLAYOFFS

Montreal takes 2-1 series lead over Boston C ANADIAN PRESS

MONTREAL — P.K. Subban and Dale Weise each had a goal and an assist and Carey Price made 26 saves as the Montreal Canadiens downed the Boston Bruins 4-2 on Tuesday night to take the lead in their NHL Eastern Conference semifinal playoff series. Montreal leads the

best-of-seven series 2-1 with Game 4 slated for Thursday night at the Bell Centre. Tomas Plekanec and Lars Eller also scored for Montreal, which was outplayed for long stretches but made the most of quick-strike attacks. Patrice Bergeron and Andrej Meszaros scored for the Bruins.

Wild get 4-0 win over Chicago in Game 3 ASSOCIATED PRESS

ST. PAUL, Minn. — Erik Haula and Mikael Granlund scored goals less than 3 minutes apart early in the third period, and the Minnesota Wild recovered from a sluggish start for a 4-0 victory over the Chicago Blackhawks on Tuesday in Game 3 of the Western Conference semifinal series. Ilya Bryzgalov made 19 saves for his first shutout in the playoffs in

eight years, and the Blackhawks had their lead whittled to 2-1 with their first loss in 2 1/2 weeks. Zach Parise put the exclamation point on the win with a power-play goal, the first in 25 chances for the Wild over their last two playoff series against the Blackhawks. Then Granlund tacked on an empty-netter with 1:17 left. Game 4 is Friday in Minnesota.

WHL PLAYOFFS

Oil Kings top Winterhawks 3-2; Portland leads series 2-1 SHANE JONES Canadian Press

EDMONTON — Edgars Kulda’s goal with 6:47 remaining in the third period was the winner as the Edmonton Oil Kings bounced back from an early 2-0 loss to remain in the running in the Western Hockey League championships, defeating the defending champion Portland Winterhawks 3-2 on Tuesday night. Henrik Samuelsson and Luke Bertolucci also scored for the Oil Kings, who are now 9-0 on home ice in the playoffs to cut Portland’s series lead to 2-1. Chase De Leo and Mathew Dumba responded for the Winterhawks, who suffered just their fourth loss in their last 46 games, a string of success running all the way back to Jan. 11. As has been the case in every game in the series, the Winterhawks came out flying to grab an early lead in the game, scoring twice in less than a minute to go up 2-0 on their first three shots before the game was even four min-

utes old. Portland struck 2:38 into the first period as a big bounce off the boards came out front to De Leo and he spun and beat Edmonton goalie Tristan Jarry with a shot to the top corner for his 10th goal off the playoffs. Just 52 seconds later it was 2-0 Portland, as Brendan Leipsic fed a pass to defender Dumba in the slot and the Minnesota Wild draft pick made the most of the opportunity. Edmonton allowed goals in the first three minutes of the first two games of the series as well, and was outscored by a combined 5-0 in the first periods of its opening two losses of the series in Portland. Despite the early deficit, the Oil Kings fought back to outshoot the Hawks 19-10 in the opening frame, however Portland goalie Corbin Boes stood his ground. Edmonton got on the board four minutes into the second period with a power play goal as Curtis Lazar made a perfect pass across to Samuelsson at

the side of the net and the Phoenix Coyotes prospect sent his fifth of the playoffs into a wide-open net to cut the lead to 2-1. The Oil Kings pulled even with nine minutes remaining in the second period as Bertolucci picked up a loss puck and went in on a breakaway, only to be pushed down from behind by Dumba. However, Bertolucci got right back on his feet and was able to make a nifty move to freeze Boes on the deke for his sixth of the post-season. It appeared the Oil Kings had taken the lead just over a minute later on a mad scramble in front of the Portland goal, however, a lengthy review concluded that Samuelsson had kicked the puck into the net. Jarry made several key saves during the first half of the third period to keep it a tied game, none bigger than an early glove save on Taylor Leier. Edmonton took their first lead of the entire series with just under seven minutes left

in the third as Mitch Moroz sent a puck in front and Kulda was able to redirect it into the net to put the Oil Kings up 3-2. Portland furiously tried to knot the game back up in the late stages and had a great chance in the dying seconds, but Dumba shot a puck over the net. Jarry faced 15 shots in the third and 37 in the game. Game 4 of the WHL Finals takes place on Wednesday, also in Edmonton. Notes: It’s the third consecutive season that the Oil Kings and Winterhawks are meeting in the WHL Championship Series. Edmonton defeated Portland in seven games to win in 2012, while Portland won in six games last year. It is Portland’s fourth consecutive trip to the league championshipsa It is just the second time in league history that two teams have met in the WHL final three years in a row. The last time was when the original Edmonton Oil Kings (who ended up moving to Portland to become the Winterhawks) played the Flin Flon Bombers three times from 1969-71

Balloons were popular among the littlest clients.

Moms and babes listen to the touching speeches.

Wasa Fun Daze Jessic a C ampbell

Come out and enjoy a fun-filled day with your family and friends at Wasa Fun Daze on Saturday, May 31. There will be lots of food, fun games and events going on and it’s free admission to the grounds. There will be a pancake breakfast from 8:30 a.m to 11 a.m and a lunch from 12 p.m to 5 p.m. There will be a parade, children’s game booths, a sand castle competition, old-fashioned bingo in the Wasa Community Hall from 1 p.m to 4 p.m and live entertainment throughout the day from local bands that have volunteered their time for the event, a garage sale and much more. “It’s a fun event that provides lots of support to the Wasa community,” said coordinator Wilma Harding. All proceeds from the garage sale, vendor tables and other draws will go to the Wasa Lions Club. The money raised by the Lions Club goes back into the Wasa

community. Among their many contributions, the Lions help maintain the Wasa Lake trail. The club also helps members of the community who are in need, for instance after a serious event like a house fire. They also provide support for those who need money for medical equipment such as wheelchairs or hospital beds in their homes. “This fundraiser started many years ago so that the Lions Club could help the community in such a way,” said Julie Kneller, also coordinator of the event. “I hope people come out to show their support. It hasn’t been as popular in a few previous years but we’re really hoping for a big turnout this year.” Anyone who wants to be involved in the parade either by having their own float or walking can contact Wilma Harding at 250427-1767. If you want to donate clean, gently used items to the garage sale you can contact Val at 250-4223499.

HOROSCOPES by Jacqueline Bigar

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your creativity will emerge as you interact with others. An associate might insist on having a one-on-one conversation with you. Listen to this person’s logic. The discussion that ensues could be very enlightening. Tonight: Visit with a child or a potential sweetie. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Allow greater give-and-take between you and someone else. Defer to a family member, and understand what is important. You will be more anchored and contained than you originally might have thought possible. Discuss a money matter. Tonight: Let the good times roll. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’ll be more forthright than you have been in a while. Discussions you start could draw a lot of feedback. Keep a situation active through a brainstorming session. Listen to an offer from someone in charge. You might feel as if you have no choice. Tonight: Pace yourself.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Be sensitive to someone else’s financial situation. Your compassion is likely to bring this person closer. Your understanding means more to others than you might think. Do not make more of a situation than what it really is. Tonight: Speak your mind. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Be more forthright and direct. Someone involved with your personal life will be disapproving, no matter what you say or do. You might as well be realistic about what is motivating you. Communication will excel in a meeting. Tonight: As you like it. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your image of what needs to happen will be very different from reality. Do not push someone so hard, and try to avoid going to extremes. You might see a personal matter one way today, but your vision could change tomorrow. Tonight: Get some extra sleep. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You could be taken aback by a personal situation that causes

Tundra

you anxiety. You will discover how much you are influenced by difficult people. Pick and choose your company with care; your productivity and happiness could change as a result. Tonight: Join a friend. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might be more touchy and difficult than you realize. Be willing to turn a situation around through having an important discussion. You could be out of touch when it comes to addressing a personal matter. Try to loosen up a little. Tonight: Burn the candle at both ends. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might see a situation in a different light. Be more direct in your dealings, and understand what is about to happen. Remain upbeat and direct in your interactions, even though you could have some lingering misgivings. Tonight: Think “mini-vacation.” CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A meeting could be very uncomfortable, especially if you encounter a lot of negativity. Understand why others might

be threatened by a change of direction. Most people find any variation in the status quo unnerving. Tonight: Have an important discussion with a loved one. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Others continue to seek you out. You might need to establish your boundaries and direction once more. You could feel as if you want to make an instrumental change in how you live your life. Do you really want to? Tonight: Sort through your invitations. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll have the ability to get through a lot of work right now. Understand that you must say “no” to certain invitations and head in your chosen direction. You will see a situation change, and you might feel as if you need to change with it. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: When my birthday was coming up, I told my wife about a piece of technology I really wanted and asked her to buy it for me. It cost $300. She said it was too expensive and didn’t get me anything except a card. In the past three weeks, she has purchased three birthday gifts for friends, each costing roughly $100. She put in a ton of effort to find exactly the right gift. Am I justified in feeling hurt by this snub? Should I talk to her about it, or am I being petty? -- Ignored Dear Ignored: We certainly can understand why you would be miffed that your wife has no problem spending $300 on friends and nothing on you. But some people don’t like being told what to buy, because it takes all the joy out of the occasion. Or perhaps your wife disapproved of the piece of technology you wanted. Or maybe she thinks you could get these things for yourself, especially if the money comes from the same account. We suspect your real issue is that your wife seems to value her friends more than her husband. This certainly merits a discussion. Please talk to your wife. Tell her you are hurt and ask whether more is going on than meets the eye. Dear Annie: It’s graduation time again. A while back, a teacher asked you about graduation gifts for students. You said, “Many graduates deeply appreciate a personal letter from a teacher expressing positive thoughts about the student.” Teachers, please don’t underestimate that final statement. For those who feel obligated to give something more tangible, an inexpensive gift representing your relationship with the student along with a personal note would also be treasured. I know. I received such a gift 30 years ago -- a piece of music that our band performed. And while I appreciated the monetary gifts from my relatives, that small gift is the one that still touches me the most deeply. I’m a parent now. I know that teachers don’t make a great deal of money, but still get invited to a lot of graduation parties. We’d rather have the teacher at the party to give our kids a final word of encouragement than have them stay away for lack of a present. To my fellow parents: Graduation is such a busy time, but I ask that when inviting a teacher, coach, church youth leader or any other adult who may have had a positive effect on your children’s lives, please include a personal note in the invitation. Here’s mine: “Having you as a music teacher has meant so much to ‘Sally’ that we would be honored if you could join us in celebrating her graduation. You already have given her the priceless gift of a passion for music, so please don’t feel obligated to bring anything else. Your presence at her party would be the greatest gift you could give her.” -- Maryland Parent Dear Maryland: Thank you for reminding teachers, parents and students that personal notes of appreciation, whether accompanied by gifts or not, are cherished for years to come. Now is the time to get started. Dear Annie: My eyes teared up reading the letter from “Lucky and Appreciative Married Man” and the kind things he said about his wife. I am 30 years old and have been married for three years. I can only hope that one day my husband, whom I love dearly, is as grateful for me as I am for him. Until then, I will continue to cook dinner, wash our clothes, shovel the snow, mow the lawn, pay the bills and beg for his attention. What I wouldn’t give for a little appreciation. -- Lonely in Love Dear Lonely: Please don’t wait passively. If you want things to change, talk to your husband about this now.

Jenna Elizabeth Homeniuk â€œ Yennahâ€? - â€œJenna Bananaâ€? - â€œKiddoâ€? 1998 - 2014 It is with profound sorrow that the family of Jenna Homeniuk announces her passing on Tuesday, April 29, 2014 in Calgary, Alberta. Jenna was born on April 15, 1998 in St. Albert, Alberta. Jenna and her family moved from St. Albert to Kimberley in October of 2000 when she was 2 years old. Jenna fell in love with the beauty and nature of the Kimberley area and her love for the outdoors started to develop. Jenna also discovered a love of drawing and she flourished in her drawing skills. It was not too often that Jenna did not have a pencil and paper in her hand! Jenna will be fondly remembered for her vivacious and adventurous spirit. The outdoors is where she was happiest - on her mountain bike, in a lake or river, skiing down her favourite run on a powder day, or sitting under a tree being creative with her pencil and pad. Jenna loved being around her family and friends. She loved life and all it had to offer. Regardless of the activity, Jennaâ€™s enthusiasm was contagious which always made being in her presence a great joy.

continue to turn to DAILY NEWSPAPERS for breaking news, analysis of the day’s top events and entertaining content, according to the latest NADbank data. “Increased media competition, besides raising the editorial bar at dailies, doesn’t change one crucial fact”, says media buyer Bruce Claassen, CEO of GenesisVizeum (Toronto) and chair of Aegis Media Canada. “Daily newspapers offer the same beneﬁts they always have: the ability to reach customers quickly. Only with a daily paper are you able to choose to do an ad and run with it in two days, and reach a sizable portion of the population, in a fairly mass, fairly broad and fairly fast way. That’s a set of qualities very few other media can match.” FOR DAILY DELIVERY OF YOUR LOCAL NEWSPAPER CALL US!
