Cheyenne Learn takes the stand in Cranbrook court TRE VOR CR AWLEY
Crown counsel closed the case against Cheyenne Learn before he himself was called to the witness stand by his lawyer as the trial resumed on Wednesday in Cranbrook Supreme Court. In front of Justice Dev Dley, defence counsel Brent Bagnall called his client to the stand, who testified about the nature of his relationship with his ex-girlfriend and the timeline of
events leading up to the shooting of Tammy Ellis. Learn is on trial for second-degree murder in the death of Ellis, who died in a shooting in Cranbrook on Dec. 17, 2007. Learn was convicted in 2009, but the decision was overturned on appeal in 2013 and he was awarded a new trial. Learn spent most of the morning and afternoon establishing a chronology of his life leading up to the inci-
dent and his relationship status with his ex-girlfriend, whose identity is protected by a publication ban, but is referred to as B.L. He testified his memory of the shooting is spotty due to his alcohol consumption leading up to the incident. Learn, who said he intermittently used cocaine with B.L. over the course of the relationship, had testified he struggled with intimacy as an aftereffect of the
drug use. He was arguing with Ellis right before the shooting and had trouble hearing her even though she was right in front of him. He said she swore at him and called him an incomplete man for failing to satisfy B.L. “The next thing I know, I’m in the house and the gun went off,” Learn said. He said his vision was a grey haze it was “a brief moment of this happening, it was quick [and] I don’t re-
member leaving the house.” He said he has no recollection of forcing the back door open or saying anything to the three people inside or loading the gun, pointing the gun or pulling the trigger. His next memory is him laying on the ground by his bike and the gun. He tossed the weapon to the side of the road and blacked out again, ending up in a recycle bin by Dairy

Queen. He testified he didn’t know what happened the night before, but made the decision to turn himself into the RCMP. He headed over to his brother’s place to clean up, where he heard that Ellis had died. As he was getting into his brother’s van to go to the detachment, the RCMP rolled up and Cpl. Phil Sullivan arrested him. He also testified about his relationship with B.L., how they met and their lifestyle involving alcohol and marijuana use. Learn met his ex-girlfriend when he went to a festival in Creston in 2005, casually dating for five or six months before she moved in with him. They lived in a camper in the summer of 2006 out in the Gold Creek area, as Learn worked doing odd-jobs and scrap salvaging, while B.L. worked at a local care facility. She injured herself in a fall in the autumn, with employment insurance running out in the spring of 2007. They moved into town for the winter, before heading out to the Fort Steele area in the 2007 summer with a camper trailer. Learn testified that he was committed to the relationship and that B.L. seemed to reciprocate that commitment. The two began planning on moving to Kelowna because of better job prospects and B.L. began to deal cocaine as a way to make money for that end.

Despite a brief separation, B.L. reconciled with Learn after she had a stash of cocaine was ripped off. Learn testified she wanted a handgun for protection, but he only had rifles which were legally registered. The Friday night before the shooting, B.L. and Ellis came over to his trailer, which was in the Wattsville neighbourhood in Cranbrook, to pick up cocaine for a trip to Kimberley late in the evening. Learn said he smelled alcohol on her breath, and didn’t give her the drugs because he didn’t want her driving. That caused Ellis to threaten that she’d call ‘the big boys’ because he wouldn’t give up the drugs, but they left and she apologized the next day, Learn testified.

The Tea Party set to rock Cranbrook Ferdy Belland
“W
e just fini s h e d touring Australia two weeks ago, and that was just over the top,” says Jeff Martin, vocalist-guitarist for Canada’s hard-rocking psychedelic power trio The Tea Party. “Our band is playing better than ever, and the reviews were embarrassingly good. So we’ve just continued that here in Canada, and the band’s just been smoking hot.” Said smoking heat will burn down the icy grip of winter when the Tea Party explode onstage at the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook Monday, Dec. 8. The Tea Party (which also includes bassist Stuart Chatwood and drummer Jeff Burrows) was formed in Windsor, Ontario, in 1990, and exploded onto the Canadian rock scene with their 1993debut album “Splendor Solis” (which featured the hit singles “Save Me” and “The River”). They became one of the country’s most popular bands, releasing eight albums, gaining a national reputation as a thrilling live act, and standing apart
from much of the soundalike alternative-rock of the day. Creative differences caused the Tea Party to disband in 2005, with Martin pursuing a solo career and a brief relocation to Ireland to helm the power trio The Armada. The Tea Party reunited in 2011, and the band is currently enjoying a strong resurgence of international popularity with the release of their new album “The Ocean at the End.” “Yes, the honeymoon is still lasting for the three of us,” says Martin. “Our friendship has stayed the same, and it’s stronger than ever now. Our desire to push ourselves as artists and as a collective knows no bounds. The best is still yet to come.” Martin explained the songwriting interplay (and esoteric numerology) at work between himself, Burrows, and Chatwood in the construction of the new album. “The way the Tea Party’s creative process works is that it’s a bit of an occult science,” says Martin. “Well, it’s probably from my side of things, but the number 11 was what we started
The Tea Party explode onstage at Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre on December 8. Left to right: bassist Stuart Chatwood, vocalist-guitarist Jeff Martin, drummer Jeff Burrows. off with as an initial starting concept. Eleven songs. It’s very important, the matching of it all. We came up with 11 compositions, and we kept working at them until each of them became equally as great as the others. Everything we wrote made it to the final stage. It’s a complete work of art, in that way.” Martin still finds the Tea Party’s live experience to be as magical and lightning-charged as anytime before.
“It’s a big thing to put the Tea Party together, since I live halfway around the world now from the other two guys, so undertaking the development of new audiences in the United States, or elsewhere, needs to be a sure bet. Australia is my home now. I have a house in Perth and a house in Sydney. Australia’s always had some of our largest audiences, ever since the band began, and our popularity there
just keeps getting bigger.” Martin has a reputation not only as one of the more imaginative rock songwriters to have emerged from the Canadian alternative-rock scene of the early 1990s, but also as a highly prolific songwriter and a masterful studio producer. “Of course the Tea Party is the priority for the three of us,” says Martin, “but I also have a side project in Australia.
The band’s called the Black Diamond Express, named after the famous high-speed train that runs through India. It’s myself, a singer-songwriter named Sarah McLeod, and a drummer named Mitch Kelsey. The album’s actually been completed, but we just don’t know at the moment if we’ll have time to release it next year. “And I’m still involved with production work with other artists in
my time away from the Tea Party. After I return to Australia after the Canadian tour is done, there’s a rock band from Sydney named Lepers and Crooks, with whom I’ll be producing their debut record.” Martin says that the Tea Party is looking very forward to debuting themselves in Cranbrook, and considers every audience as worthy as the next, be the cities great or small. “The Tea Party is such an exotic thing,” says Martin. “For a band like us to roll into the smaller centres, it’s really something that everyone can see is extraordinary and special, and that’s what we’ve been finding out, tour after tour. We love the reaction, wherever we go. Nothing changes in our intensity and our passion in our show. We will give Cranbrook everything we give Toronto or Montreal or Vancouver.” Tickets to see The Tea Party on Monday, December 8, at Key City Theatre are $42.50, available at the theatre box office and at www. keycitytheatre.com.

There’s a new name in the world of coffee roasting — Steam Donkey Coffee — and it’s happening right here in Kimberley. Steam Donkey Coffee is owned by Michelle and Kevin Shepit.

blended coffees,” Kevin says. The Shepits started their business plan while living on Vancouver Island, but the plan always was to develop the business in Kimberley, where Kevin “was born and grew tall”, as he puts it. They began putting the coffee out last spring and have seen a very positive response from customers. “With small communities come small companies,” Kevin said. “We are thankful to be able to operate a sustainable business here in Kimberley, grateful for the support and always open to feedback.” And Steam Donkey Coffee reflects the community where it is roasted in its various blends. From Hell Roaring (extra dark) to Sawtooth (medium roast), Underground (dark roast), Aksel (single origin, direct trade) Boot Strap (light roast), Lamplighter (untraditional espresso), Loco Motive (traditional espresso) to Slo Moe (decaf), the blends reflect the geography and history of Kimberley. “We wanted our brand to include local history and the nuances of the area,” Kevin said. Growth has been on
the rise for the past months. “We chose to put a brand out there where the quality of the product would speak for itself,” Kevin said. Steam Donkey is not sold out of the factory but through local retailers. It is available at Overwaitea, Sprout, Centex and Snowdrift Cafe in Kimberley, SaveOn Foods and Funhogs in Cranbrook, Overwaitea in Fernie and Sobeys in Invermere. “We are now working with Overwaitea Food Group and can sell Steam Donkey coffee to any Overwaitea or SaveOn across BC as long as we develop relationships with each grocer,” Kevin said. “We met with the President of Overwaitea Food Group in Kimberley. That’s a pretty monumental step for a start up.” Success has come quickly but Kevin says the focus is for slow, steady growth. “We are a small company, a local company with exceptional support from locals, for which we are very grateful. Slow growth is the plan. With a small company, rapid growth can be dangerous. Everything is going according to plan. It’s one step at a time.”

Verismo concludes fall Jazz Series with an exclamation point A banquet for jazz fans at Centre 64 this past fall Mart y Musser For the Bulletin
Supporters of the Performing Arts in Kimberley were treated to a “corker” when Calgary’s “Verismo” took the stage at Centre 64 this past Friday. Given the level of the two preceding shows in the Fall Series, expectations were understandably high coming into this the final performance of the season and I would be surprised to hear that anyone was disappointed. When you combine the severe weather conditions and brutal schedule the group had
to deal with in traveling from Calgary for a one nighter, with the show they gave, you come up with one very special evening of entertainment here in the trench. The group is comprised of five very talented, educated and intelligent individuals who, since getting together as Verismo thirteen years ago have successfully explored an intentional “improvisational” approach to arrangements that swing like crazy while clearly connecting on an emotional level as well. The instrumentation of string bass, drums, piano and tenor and soprano saxophones certainly lends itself nicely to a very accessible style that is reminiscent of the type of jazz popularized in the 50’s and 60’s by artists such as Horace Sil-
ver, Oscar Peterson and John Coltrane with a touch of big band thrown in for good measure. Given the skill, technique and musicianship acquired and developed in achieving such high a caliber, it is understandable that at times performers can come across as a bit self indulgent. Not so with Verismo. It was very impressive in the way in which each individual was able to improvise and stretch within a given piece yet the group was able stay connected to both the song and the audience.. The music instantly resulted in lots of toe tapping and head bobbing and although their “extended” style requires slightly longer arrangements than other forms, the night really flew by for us all.
Verismo played the dance studio at Centre 64 last Friday. The group’s persona was one of friendliness and intimacy both in performing and chatting between songs and sets that added another
layer to an evening already loaded with musical delights. All in all,

it will be hard to forget this one. The show conclud-
ed Centre 64’s third Jazz Series with plans in motion for a fourth series next fall. Two shows have already been booked for the 2015 Spring Concert Series. On March 21st “The Love Bullies”, a Calgary based 50 and 60’s retro band will visit our town and on April 22nd we are delighted to host Guy Davis a renowned solo Blues performer . Check them out on U-Tube! Tickets will be available in the new year but a reserve list has already been started. A third group will be booked for mid to late May and the Performing Arts Committee is exploring various genres and styles. Suggestions are always welcome. Please contact Centre 64.
Learn takes the stand Continued from page 1 Learn spoke to B.L on Sunday evening, when she was at a residence and “she didn’t sound right, was crying and mumbling about a lump in her throat from smoking crack cocaine.” He had never heard her in that state and was concerned about a possible overdose, and checked on her the next day—the same day as the shooting incident. After running errands, Learn arrived with flowers for B.L. and went back to the trailer, where began cleaning his trailer, drinking three coolers while he was working. He walked down to a liquor store and bought more alcohol, including a two-litre bottle of seven per-cent cider, a 375 mL bottle of rum and a novelty tequila shooter. B.L. came by with a fast food dinner at 8:30 p.m. and he was a third of the way through the two litre bottle and the two talked about sharing a joint and spending time together later. She left and he continued drinking,
mixing in the rum with the cider and working on carving a walking stick. Learn testified the alcohol had affected his memory of the events of the night. He was worried about B.L.’s cocaine trafficking and drug use, and decided to head over to the house where she was staying with the intent of sabotaging her vehicle with the gun. “At the time I was intoxicated, it [the idea] seemed fine,” Learn said. He doesn’t remember leaving the trailer or arriving at the residence, using his bicycle for transportation. His next memory is B.L. arriving in the house in her Jeep, who had a brief conversation with Learn before going inside. He testified he got back on the bike and was about to leave when Ellis exited the house and began arguing with him. Crown counsel will cross-examine Learn on Thursday and both sides are hoping to wrap up the trial on Friday.

A
s I sit looking out the window on the last weekend of November, I am trying to reconcile the snow sifting down with the warm Hawaiian air, balmy breezes and tropical flowers I left behind three short days ago. While I hear Maui calling me back, I’m back in the snow for the winter. I was going to plant my garlic when I got back from my trip to the sun but that’s not gonna to happen now! I have friends in Vancouver who plant their garlic in the spring, so maybe I will try that, because there’s nothing as good as fresh, home grown garlic! My Christmas cactus have been happily blooming for a month or more, my forced Paperwhite Narcissus are starting to bloom, and there are two flower stalks on one of my four Amaryllis and at least one on the others. In early November when I potted up hyacinths to force for February and got out all the cardboard boxes that I used last year, one seemed awfully heavy. I opened it, and much to my surprise, there was a pot of hyacinths I missed bringing out into the light last winter that had bloomed, the flowers had died and the bulbs were again sprouting. I was blown away - I couldn’t believe the bulbs had survived. It just goes to show that bulbs are a lot more human proof than we think. At our November meeting, our very timely program was how to make evergreen wreaths on wire wreath frames. We had excellent instructions from a knowledgeable club member who divided us into three teams. Each team got a wreath frame, greenery and wire. We bundled and wired spruce, cedar and Scotch pine and then wired each bundle to the frame, overlapping the stem ends with the “fronds”. We
were also shown how to make fancy bows using wide, wired ribbon. When we were finished, each team put the names of their team members in a container, and someone from each team drew the name of the lucky person who got to take the wreath home. It was a fun program, and we all learned a lot. We’re all now looking forward our annual December finger food pot luck appies and dessert Christmas party. The only rule is no forks allowed! It’s interesting to see how creative people can be. Our first meeting of the new year will be held on January 14th. The is our program planning meeting and our members are encouraged to give their ideas on what they would like to learn about gardening during the year. We’re starting to get new members and the ideas usually start with “How do I...?”. It’s a learning experience for everyone and a chance for our more experienced members to share their knowledge. The Garden Club meets the second Wednesday of the month. From October through May, we hold our meetings at Selkirk High School, starting at 7 pm in the Library. We welcome anyone who would like to learn more about gardening in Kimberley, whether you are new to gardening or new to the Kimberley area. For more information on our meetings, call Nola at 250-427-1948. The Garden Club has web space at http://www.kootenaygardening.com. There are several pages in the Kimberley Garden Club section listing deer-resistant plants. In addition to hosting pages for the Cranbrook, Kimberley and Trail Garden Clubs, this website is incredibly informative with a wealth of gardening information and techniques. Happy Gardening.

Curmudgeon faces vox populi A man that I know vaguely told me that it is disgusting that I should be paid for the drivel that I write in the local papers. I was surprised that he knew the word ‘drivel’ but attempted to explain to him that I didn’t count about $2 an hour as pay. Oh, sure. Usually I can complete what I have to say quite quickly but then I have to ask my computer how many words I’ve written and then, when it tells me that I’ve penned too many, I have to edit. Omitting great lumps of my terse prose is like da Vinci being told that he’d got too many disciples in his Last Supper painting and having to decide whom to eliminate. Then I start the daily arguments with my illiterate computer over spelling. Anyway, here are a few other criticisms that I have had thrown at me: Hey, Pete: My theory is when the editor can’t find any other garbage to fill in a space he chooses yours. Dick. Hey, Dick: And then I pay him for the honour. Pete. Mr Warland: Peter: I just loved your column about you finding your dancing shoes. Now, you must come down to the seniors’ centre and attend one of our regular dances. I, personally, would love to dance a rhumba with you. Eloise. Eloise: The invitation sounds so inviting but I am afraid that my second- hand
pace-maker might blow a tube should I dance a rhumba with a lady called Eloise. Cha cha cha. Peter. Curmudgeon: Instead of sitting there scribbling inane tosh and criticizing those that run for office, you could get up off your posterior and do something of benefit to the community. Sincerely,Will. Certainly I will, Will, but Peter it seems to me that the Warland electors are divided into two groups: some think that half of those elected are fruitcakes; others think that half are not. To which group do you think I belong? Curmudgeon. Hey! My old lady is always watching Knowledge and she’s been fascinated by all that WWI stuff. Were you involved in that? How come you didn’t get your fool head shot off? Frank. Frankly, Frank, I know I’m a wrinkled old prune but even my father was too young for that particular fiasco, so work it out, right? Pete. Mr Warland: I honestly don’t know how you can sit there in that big house of yours and smugly write balderdash when you blather on criticizing those of us who work so hard and spend so many hours of our lives working for the community you live in. To enjoy life in a community such as ours, a person should at least try to help. Harold.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Okay, Harold: When he has paid so much in taxes year after year, a person needs time to relax, listen to the hot air emanating from city hall, and work out where he’s going to find the cash for next June’s assessment. It doesn’t grow on trees. Peter. Hey, Old Pete: When I read that bit about that woman falling through the ice and her dogs making damn nuisances if themselves it reminded me of when I was seal pup hunting off Labrador and I went through. The idiot dogs tried to kill me. They thought I was a seal, but some of the crew hauled me out. I only just got away with it. Chester. Hey, Chester: Pity. Old Pete. Hiya, Curmudgeon: How come you like write your bilge with a British accent? Bruce. Hiya, yourself, Bruce: It is what is known as good grammar. The curmudgeon. Mr Warland: Every year I feel more and more like Scrooge. Bah! Humbug! Christmas has gotten away from Christians and the church. It has probably gotten away from the children too. It is all poppycock rubbish, malarkey and twaddle, one big Black Friday for a couple of hideous months. Mavis Q. (Mrs) I know exactly how you feel, Mrs Q. It’s also flummery, bombast and baloney. At least have a wonderful Winter Solstice. I intend to. Peter Warland.

The robots that will rule the world What’s Up? T he experts run the whole gamut from A to B, and they’re practically unanimous: artificial intelligence is going to destroy human civilisation. Expert A is Elon Musk, polymath co-founder of PayPal, manufacturer of Tesla electric cars, creator of Space X, the first privately funded company to send a spacecraft into orbit, and much else besides. “I think we should be very careful about Artificial Intelligence (AI),” he told an audience at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in October. “If I were to guess what our biggest existential threat is, it’s probably that.” Musk warned AI engineers to “be very careful” not to create robots that could rule the world. Indeed, he suggested that there should be regulatory oversight “at the national and international level” over the work of AI developers, “just to make sure that we don’t do something very foolish.” Expert B is Stephen Hawking, the world’s most famous theoretical physicist and author of the best-selling unread book ever, “A Short History of Time”. He has a brain the size of Denmark, and last Monday he told the British Broadcasting Corporation that “the development of full artificial intelligence could spell the end of the human race.” Hawking has a motor neurone disease that compels him to speak with the aid of an artificial speech generator. The new version he is getting from Intel learns how Professor Hawking thinks, and suggests the words he might want to use next. It’s an early form of AI, so naturally the interviewer asked him about the future of that technology. A genuinely intelligent machine, Hawking warned, “would take off on its own, and re-design itself at an ever increasing rate. Humans, who are limited by slow bio-
logical evolution, couldn’t compete and would be superseded.” So be very, very careful. Musk and Hawking are almost fifty years behind popular culture in their fear of rogue AI turning against human beings (HAL in “2001: A Space Odyssey”). They are a full thirty years behind the concept of a super-computer that achieves consciousness and instantly launches a Gwynne war of extermination against mankind (Skynet Dyer in the “Terminator” films). Then there’s “The Matrix”, “Blade Runner” and similar variations on the theme. It’s taken a while for the respectable thinkers to catch up with all this paranoia, but they’re there now. So everybody take a tranquiliser, and let’s look at this more calmly. Full AI, with capacities comparable to the human brain or better, is at least two or three decades away, so we have time to think about how to handle this technology. The risk that genuinely intelligent machines which don’t need to be fed or paid will eventually take over practically all the remaining good jobs — doctors, pilots, accountants, etc. — is real. Indeed, it may be inevitable. But that would only be a catastrophe if we cannot revamp our culture to cope with a great deal more leisure, and restructure our economy to allocate wealth on a different basis than as a reward for work. Such a society might well end up as a place in which intelligent machines had “human” rights before the law, but that’s not what worries the sceptics. Their fear is that machines, having achieved consciousness, will see human beings as a threat (because we can turn them off, at least at first), and that they will therefore seek to control or even eliminate us. That’s the Skynet scenario, but it’s not very realistic.
The saving grace in the real scenario is that AI will not arrive all at once, with the flip of a switch. It will be built gradually over decades, which gives us time to introduce a kind of moral sense into the basic programming, rather like the innate morality that most human beings are born with. (An embedded morality is an evolutionary advantage in a social species.) Our moral sense doesn’t guarantee that we will always behave well, but it certainly helps. And if we are in charge of the design, not just blind evolution, we might even do better. Something like Isaac Asimov’s Three Laws of Robotics, which the Master laid down 72 years ago. First Law: A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. Second Law: A robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings, except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. Third Law: A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Laws. Not a bad start, although in the end there will inevitably be a great controversy among human beings as to whether self-conscious machines should be kept forever as slaves. The trick is to find a way of embedding this moral sense so deeply in the programming that it cannot be circumvented. As Google’s director of engineering, Ray Kurzweil, has observed, however, it may be hard to write an algorithmic moral code strong enough to constrain and contain super-smart software. We probably have a few decades to work on it, but we are going to go down this road — the whole ethos of this civilisation demands it — so we had better figure out how to do that. Gwynne Dyer is an independent journalist based in London.
It happened this week in Cranbrook Week of Nov. 30 – Dec. 6 Dave Humphrey Items compiled from the archived newspapers held at the Cranbrook Museum and Archives
1899 Death by Falling Tree … William S. Reid, the well-known contractor on the North Star branch of the Crows Nest Pass railway, was instantly killed last Tuesday forenoon while walking on the grade towards town, by a falling tree. The accident was particularly distressing, as he was only two miles from town and was hurrying from his camp to town to take the train that noon with his wife and son to spend Christmas at their home in Winnipeg. Tuesday morning Mr. Reid sent one of his teamsters to Cranbrook, telling him to wait there and he would be in town between ten and eleven o’clock. Later he got on a wagon belonging to McDougal & Leitch’s camp, and started to ride in with the driver. When the team reached a point a little more than two miles from town, and where the road crosses the grade, Mr. Reid jumped out, saying that he would walk into town on the grade. A strong wind was prevailing at the time, and the tree, a dry one, was standing on the west side of the grade. The wind had pulled it up by the roots, thus giving no warning, as would have been the case had it broken or stood where it would have
crashed into other trees in its descent. It is evident that Mr. Reid had no intimation of danger until the tree struck him. The portion that performed the fatal work was near the top, and not over three or four inches in diameter. Coroner Moffat, Constable Morris, Dr. King and J. Fink, with several others, hurried to the scene. In the opinion of the doctor, life had been extinct about an hour when they reached the body. The remains were carefully laid in Mr. Fink’s delivery wagon and brought to the undertaking rooms of Maggs & Hughes. The deceased was an Odd Fellow and a Forester, and the members of Key City lodge, I. O. O. F., took charge of the remains until they were placed on the train for Winnipeg. Horse Shoe Claim ... Messrs. VanDecar and Melton have located a mineral claim immediately west of the Copper Crown in Isador Canyon and have shown up a ledge fully seven feet in width, mineralized clear across with copper pyrites. This claim is known as the Horse Shoe and is only one of many of the enterprises backed by Mr. VanDecar, who is without doubt one of the most enterprising mining dealers in this district, and as such deserves the success that he is already meeting with. A Successful Ball ... The Bachelors’ and Benedicts’ ball given last Friday evening was a pronounced success in every way. There was a large attendance, and everyone present had a most enjoyable time.
The patronesses were Mesdames Hutchison, Keay, Erickson, Morrow, Mansfield and Simpson, and to their efforts, and the management of Mr. W. S. Keay, the secretary, the success of the ball was due. New Book … James Wardner, after whom the towns of Wardner, Idaho, and Wardner, B.C., are named, has written an autobiography, entitled, “Jim Wardner, of Wardner, Idaho, by Himself.” As Mr. Wardner has been engaged in mining in nearly every camp in the world, the book should be full of interesting matter. Sidewalk … The sooner that sidewalk is built to Baker Hill, the better will be the chance for The Herald editor to become a Christian. Explosion … Postmaster Cann and Harry McVittie were badly injured a couple of weeks ago by the explosion of an acetylene gas machine in the post office at Fort Steele. They were looking for a leak with a lighted match, and found it. 1900 Ladies’ Night at the Club ... One week from Tuesday evening the governing committee of the Cranbrook Club will have the rooms thrown open for the reception of the ladies. Invitations will be issued, and cards will be the feature of the evening. This reception is to inaugurate a series of such events at the club during the season.

First half in the books for Avs volleyball after tough weekend in Lower Mainland Taylor Rocc a Sports Editor
With the first half of the PACWEST season in the books, both College of the Rockies Avalanche volleyball clubs were hoping for a little bit more. Through seven weeks of action, coach Andrew Zurrin’s Lady Avs find themselves holding down fifth place in PACWEST with a 4-8 record. On the men’s side of the equation, coach Steve Kamps’ Avs sit in sixth at 3-9, with the Capilano University Blues (2-10) hot on their heels. College of the Rockies rounded out the first
half of the PACWEST season with a four-game swing through the Lower Mainland last weekend, visiting Douglas College and Capilano University. The Avs were able to squeeze a 3-2 victory over the Blues Nov. 29, but came up short in three straight-sets losses, including a Sunday defeat at the hands of Capilano, allowing the Blues to stay within striking distance in the PACWEST standings. “All weekend, we had to battle,” Kamps said Wednesday morning. “We didn’t play particularly well. “It’s frustrating to see
the way we’re playing, the errors we’re making. Our serving continued to haunt us all weekend. “[Sunday], unfortunately, we came out and had our worst performance of the year. It was an absolute disaster. I didn’t even know what to say at the end of the game. It was the worst I’ve seen a team play here at the college for many, many years, if not my entire coaching career.” As for the Lady Avs, they too went 1-3 on the swing, with their only victory a straight-sets triumph Nov. 27 against the Douglas College Royals.

“We could see the effects of the road trip,” Zurrin said Tuesday afternoon. “Our brains didn’t seem to be firing on all cylinders. But they gutted it out and they pushed through. It was a tough win, mentally [against Douglas, Nov. 27]. “Even though we won three straight, it was a weird win where we did enough to win and the other team helped us to [win]. You hate to say that, but it’s almost like they just didn’t see what we had coming at them.” Left side Kelsey Thompson continued her strong play for the

OTTAWA - On July 5, 2013, Daniel Alfredsson ceased to be the face of the franchise for many Ottawa Senators fans. On Dec. 4, 2014, his legacy could be restored. Alfredsson will announce his retirement Thursday. The longtime captain will skate in pregame warm-ups with the Sens, take a ceremonial faceoff and in the process show the damaged relationship between him and the team has been repaired. Alfredsson stunned the hockey world by leaving to sign with the Detroit Red Wings. His departure after 1,178 games, 426 goals and 682 assists, and a trip to the 2007 Stanley Cup final left raw emotions on both sides.

Avalanche set sights on second half Continued from page 8 The Avs aren’t back in action until Jan. 16, 2015, when they host the Douglas College Royals at College of the Rockies. As for the Lady Avs, they sneak in a bit of exhibition action with a trip to Lethbridge Jan. 3 and 4, 2015, before returning to PACWEST play Jan. 16 against Douglas College. “It’s a good time for us to step away and have both the physical and mental break that we need right now, and a chance to reflect,” Kamps said. “Hopefully we comeback in January with a new approach to the way we’ve been doing things. “We need to really go back to the basics and fundamentals.” For both teams, the break represents a chance to regroup and refresh before the second half of the season. According to Kamps, his squad is battling a bit of injury and will welcome some time away from the court. Both Zach Fedechko and Spencer Dakin Kuiper missed games this past weekend due to injury, and the Avs bench boss indicated a number of others are nursing sore ankles, shoulders and various nagging injuries. The hope is that a strong push during the second half will pull both clubs into contention in PACWEST. Zurrin believes his girls are playing the game physically well, but falling short on the mental and emotional side of the equation, as they’ve been unable to finish off opponents late in sets. “I’m expecting big things in the second half,” Zurrin said. “You never learn things from a win, you learn things from a loss. “Our defence is outstanding. We probably have the best defence in the league…We don’t quit on any ball. No ball goes unchallenged. Every play stays alive. [Our opponents] know they have to win the point.

squad can get to 10 wins before the season comes to a close. With 12 games to play, that would require the Lady Avs to roll to a 6-6 mark to close the season.

Sports Big baseball bucks killing the romance Taylor Rocc a
I love baseball. But this off-season has been a little more troubling than off-seasons past. In fact, it’s troubling enough I just might be reconsidering my love affair with America’s great pastime. Let me elaborate. Nine of the most-wanted free agents signed for a combined total of $516 million (yes, that’s half a BILLION DOLLARS) over a total of 33 years. That’s an average of ~$15.6 million per player per season. Seems steep, but that isn’t even where my frustrations begin. That half-billion dollar total doesn’t include the gargantuan extension Giancarlo Stanton, 25, signed with the Miami Marlins. Stanton’s deal is worth $325 million over 13 years. While Stanton is arguably the best young hitter in all of baseball, let’s put this into perspective on a more comprehensible scale, because let’s be serious, numbers that large are beyond my comprehen-
sion when it comes to compensation. After all, I do work in news. The outfielder racked up 155 hits in 145 games with the Marlins last season. Last year’s hitcount would see the California native make a whopping $162,290 and change for each ball he puts into play. One hit = $162,290. Let me give you a moment to consider that. No entertainer is worth nearly the same as the gross domestic product of an entire country. Wait. What? Giancarlo Stanton will make more over 13 years than the entire country of Denmark (5.6 million people, 2012) produced in 2012. You read correctly. With one swing of his bat and a $162,290 pay day, Stanton will earn more than the average citizen in Denmark earns in an entire year. Hard-working Danes bring home an average of US$58,364 per year. I don’t want to restrict my disgust to baseball. The plague of overpaid entertainers is worldwide and stretch-
es across most professional sports, hockey, basketball and soccer included. So please, don’t interpret this as an attack on baseball alone. The unfortunate reality is fans dictate astronomical contracts as the going rate. The average MLB ticket is $27.93. That might not seem bad, but in markets where fans are accustomed to seeing nine-figure paydays for free agents (Boston, New York), the average price shoots past $50, according to the Team Marketing Report Fan Cost Index. I’m a sucker for a nice warm day at the ballpark or an electrifying evening at the rink, so I’ll be the first to label myself a hypocrite. Until the collective world of sports fanatics chooses to change their opinion, we will continue to see sky-rocketing contract extensions and astronomical salaries. In the meantime, my baseball romance will wear on, though a voice in the back of my head continues telling me to get out while I still can.

ShelterBox
The gift that keeps on giving For the Bulle tin
With Rotary Clubs in over 200 countries it helps to know which religions celebrate their holidays in the month of December. A quick google check mentioned six: Christians, Jews, Muslims, Buddhists, Pagans and Zoroastrians. Gift exchanges are common to all. For gifts that keep giving and have a proven track record the Kimberley Rotary Club offers some suggestions. Thanks to the ShelterBox Global Gifts Holiday Catalogue you can make your loved ones feel special by sharing the joy of helping a family in their hour of greatest need. Each Global Gift will help to provide emergency shelter and lifesaving supplies to a family left homeless by disaster. Your gift can be priced as low as $25 or as high as $1,200. You have the choice of giving a children’s activity pack, mosquito net, tool kit, blankets and ground sheets, water purification equipment, stove and cooking equipment, tent or a complete ShelterBox (which includes transportation cost to anywhere in the world). With each gift you will be mailed a gift card to send to your loved
ones, explaining what you purchased in their names. They can track the gift online at www.shelterboxcanada.org to learn where it was deployed. An ever-increasing number of families and groups, such as the All Saints Anglican Church, are pooling resources to allow Kimberley Rotary to purchase and ship a complete ShelterBox costing $1,200 to disaster sites around the world. The Anglican Church Mission and Outreach Committee’s wish to help Syrian refugees was met. Local families are looking at the ages of their grandchildren, realizing they have outgrown the need for more “stuff”. For $1,200 a complete ShelterBox can be given on behalf of your entire family, allowing everyone to go online to track the ShelterBox which is proudly carrying the family name. What a wonderful way to share during this season of giving! Look for the ShelterBox Global Gift advertisement in today’s paper for more details or order today online at www.shelterboxcanada.org/gifts ShelterBox Response Team volunteers will spend their De-
cember holidays at disaster sites around the world, including providing shelter and supplies to 2.5 million Syrian and Iraqi refugees. During the past three months residents of Kimberley have donated over $5,400 in aid of Syrian refugees. Since 2008 Kimberley has raised over $126,000, making us a leader in ShelterBox donations in Canada. Please consider a gift that the ShelterBox Response team volunteers can pass on. Want to support something closer to home? Kimberley Rotary has the perfect stocking stuffer. For $10 you can purchase a Selkirk Secondary School Rotary Scholarship Fund raffle ticket. This scholarship gives $2,000 to the Selkirk student who best displays their individual service to the community and the winning ticket holder receives $2,000 also. Only 550 tickets are printed and they always sell out. Buy one from a friendly Rotarian (a hint: they can sometimes be found at a table in Mark Creek Market or Overwaitea Foods). The draw will be held on January 28, 2015, and the winner is invited to a free lunch at BJs Pub for presentation of the $2,000 prize. Merry Christmas!
Alberta still looking at options for how to control wild horse population C anadian Press
EDMONTON - Alberta Environment is looking at options to manage the province’s wild horses that include signing an agreement with a group trying to protect the animals. Environment spokesman Duncan MacDonnell says the five-year agreement with the Wild Horses of Alberta Society came into effect Nov. 1. It calls for the society to oversee a contraceptive vaccine program for mares to try to lower the wild herd population around Sundre.
It also allows the society to adopt out horses and foals that have been captured, abandoned or injured. The projects are being funded entirely by the wild horses group, which must be able to document the results. MacDonnell says the province will still be involved in controlling much of the population. “We haven’t handed off all management responsibility for feral horses,” MacDonnell said Tuesday. “We are considering other management activities on the re-
mainder of that equine zone and the remaining five zones of the designated horse capture area.” A roundup earlier this year upset animal rights activists, but others said the horses compete for grass with cattle and wild animals such as elk. MacDonnell said the government is considering all its options and should have a better idea of its plan for next year by the middle of December. Last March, Alberta Environment said it counted 880 feral horses in the Rocky Mountain foothills.

I will keep a full supply of the best meats, and also fish and poultry. Fresh pork sausage will be on hand at all times. You will find my prices reasonable, and what is more nothing will be left undone to please and satisfy the trade. I would be pleased to have you call and give our place a trial. A. Jolliffe, Prop.

The East Kootenay Lumber Company will put in a tie mill on Moyie Lake, equipped with special machinery for the work. It will cut nothing but ties, but any valuable waste will be taken care of later. Plans for the new mill have been perfected, and the machinery will be ordered at once and as soon as it arrives and is installed, work on the big contract will be inaugurated. A Clever Entertainer … Joseph Younghart, who represents a Montreal waterproof house, was in town this week, and on Tuesday evening gave a number at the Cranbrook Club an exhibition of slight of hand work.

He says that the storm that has swept over the Kootenays the past few days has filled the water on the flats at Kootenay Landing with snow and soft ice, and that millions of ducks and geese are floating around there unable to get out. Day and night the air is filled with the squawking of these birds and people who can get out to them are reaping a rich harvest, as all that is necessary is to go from bunch to bunch, grab a duck or goose by the neck cut off the legs that are held fast in the frozen ice. Hundreds are being caught in this way and it is estimated that there are anywhere from 500,000

Advent a time of fasting and prayer Anastasia Bartlet t
At
T
St. Aidan’s we are well and truly into the Advent Fast which began November 15. This means we generally refrain from eating animal products right up until midnight December 24 when we feast. I never really knew about fasting before becoming Orthodox. I had participated in some cleansing fasts and 30-Hour-Famine fasts. These were short term, completely abstaining from food and not accompanied by prayer. My knowledge has definitely increased over the past 15 years. The Orthodox church has scheduled church fasting periods for about half the year. Until the modern era, these fasting periods would also include more services, giving participants more opportunity for alms-giving and communal prayer. Unfortunately, given the nature of our 21st century lives, Canadian geography and lack of priests, communal services are not as frequent as they could be. We can still give to charity outside of the church, but prayer is vitally important, so more private or family prayer is encouraged. Fasting and
hu
rs
alms-giving without prayer can make us proud instead of humble. Prayer also keeps us focused on the purpose of the fast. The focus of the Advent fast is the anticipation and preparation for the time when God entered into His creation by being born as the saviour of the world. Fasting periods were implemented within the Christian Church by the apostles. The fasts are a form of discipline to help us enter into the event occurring during that time. They are a spiritual prescription, so to speak. Ultimately, the fasts can draw us closer to Christ because we believe when we discipline the body by refraining from certain foods, we are also disciplining the soul and spirit. We believe creation first sinned through an act of eating in pride, so we begin to undo that when we humble our bodies by not eating, by fasting. Combining the fast with prayer enables us to also humble our souls. As we humble our souls, we become more like Christ, more able to see God in all of His creation including His people.

particularly needed at Advent, during this first world, 21st century season of excess and pride. Fasting during Advent reminds us that our happiness should not be dependent upon obtaining stuff whether for ourselves or others, having the most beautifully decorated house or angrily winning the ‘War against Christmas’. These things take our focus off what is actually important, drawing closer to God. The relentless promotion of capitalism and over-indulgence during December wages more of a war on Christmas than any non-believer ever could.

January rolls around, the over-indulgence hangover arrives with the bills, chasing away the inclination to give. Unfortunately, people need assistance not just one day, one week or even one month of the year, but all year round. And this is where the fast can help. Ideally, the money we save in food bills can be given to those who need it more. The time we save by not preparing elaborate meals can be spent in prayer. As we draw closer to God, drawing closer to others should become foremost in our minds as we fast through-
out the year and not just in December. During the Advent fast, we can avoid the over-indulgence hangover and maintain the message of the Christmas season yearround, the message that Christ was born to save all of creation. Prayer and fasting helps us to overcome pride and enables us to love and help all people, to treat them as important to God and to us, not just once a year but every day of every year, forever and ever. Amen. Anastasia Bartlett is a member of St Aidan’s Orthodox Church in Cranbrook
Ancient Roman commercial farm discovered Associated Press
ROME - Archaeologists have unearthed an ancient commercial farm in the heart of modern Rome, taking advantage of subway construction to explore deeply in urban settings. They worked some 20 metres down near St. John in Lateran Basilica. Today’s Rome rests upon medieval layers and, under those, more ancient strata of life.
Rossella Rea, the dig’s leader and a culture ministry official, said Wednesday that archaeologists discovered a first-century agricultural business, the closest to Rome’s ancient centre ever found, an irrigation basin measuring 115 feet by 230 feet, and an extensive drainage system near the ancient Aqua Crabra water source. Notable finds included a three-pronged iron pitch-
fork, storage baskets, leather fragments possibly from a farmhand’s glove or shoe, and traces carved into stone by a waterwheel’s repeated turning. Also extraordinary are well-preserved vestiges of willow and other tree roots and stumps. Peach pits, presumably from the farm’s orchard, also were found. Peaches were still a novelty, first imported from the Middle East.
“They were almost luxury items,” Rea told The Associated Press at the American Academy in Rome. Ancient Romans recycled. Amphorae, the jars they favoured to transport and store food, were lined up with their ends cut open to double as water conduits. Other older signs of life were carriage ruts from as long ago as the 6th century B.C.

Reminders...
When we fast, we can consciously say no to over-indulgence and pride. When we fast, we may be more inclined to give to others. When we fast, we may be more willing to live the spirit of Christmas; giving recognition and respect to every other person around us. Despite the self-indulgence, or possibly because of it, during this season food banks are stuffed, soup kitchens overflow, and the charity coffers are full. Christians and non-Christians alike are drunk with the Spirit of Christmas and feel the need to share. But when

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Read between the lines if someone seems overly concerned about something. You could sense some awkwardness, so make a point of finding out what is going on with this person. A friend could become pushy and irritable. Tonight: Do some shopping on the way home. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Go after what you want with a greater sense of confidence. You also might want to indulge a family member, roommate or loved one. Make it OK to be spontaneous. Take some time to have an important chat with a loved one. Tonight: Share some munchies. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Others might be trying to make your life easier, even though you could have a difficult time realizing it. It seems as if complication after complication continues to be tossed in your path. You might want to be unavailable for a while. Tonight:
Make a great escape. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your sense of timing seems to be right-on. You might be somewhat careless with some facet of your life, as you could be too absorbed in what you are doing. Be careful with your funds, and try to stay within your budget. Tonight: Spend some time with a close friend. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You will want to rethink a decision that involves someone you don’t want to upset. Make sure the tie between you is strong enough to handle any problems you foresee; otherwise, the other party might not be able to control his or her temper. Tonight: Count on being out late. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Others will look to you to present a different point of view. You might need to help energize loved ones, as they could be dragging. You could have a lot to do, but you’ll want to make this a priority. Tonight: Keep to a strict exercise plan. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You might have the urge to add
Tundra
a little spark to your day. You could discover that you seem to be triggered easily. Be careful, because what you dish out is likely to be returned. A loved one might be a little wild right now. Tonight: Pretend that it’s the weekend already. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Use caution when dealing with people on the homefront. Be careful with how you handle any domestic or personal issue right now. Something you shrug off today could ignite an argument in the next few weeks. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s plans. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You’ll convey your good intentions. Step back and take an overview of a private matter that’s close to your heart. Someone might find your words offensive, when that was not your intention. This person could be having a bad hair day. Tonight: Hang out at a local haunt. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might have some insight into a situation that you won’t want to share with others
just yet. Your finances could be flashing a yellow light. Although you typically have a lot of self-discipline, you easily could go overboard if you aren’t careful. Tonight: Think “weekend.” AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Today Mars, the planet of energy, moves into your sign. As a result, you are likely to express more vitality and draw many people toward you. If you feel frustrated, your temper could explode. Release any tension before you become angry. Tonight: Head home first. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others might want to lure you into their way of thinking. Listen to their opinions, but know that you don’t have to give immediate feedback. A friend or loved one could seem a bit touchy. Do yourself a favor and wait to discuss this matter. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news.

By Hillary B. Price
ANNIE’S MAILBOX by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar Dear Annie: I have been married for 28 years to a hardworking man. We have one teenage daughter. “Kara” is very smart, and my husband spoils her rotten. Kara has her own car, and my husband gives her money whenever she asks for it. We have some money saved in a college account for her, but she wants to attend an elite school that is more than we can afford. We won’t qualify for financial aid. I think Kara needs to take the money we have saved and figure the rest out, but my opinion doesn’t matter. My husband will now delay retirement in order to pay for her to go to the school of her dreams. I think this is wrong, and it’s causing much tension in our household. What is your opinion? -- Annoyed Mom Dear Annoyed: Your husband is willing to do whatever he can to give Kara what she wants. You don’t think an expensive school is worth it (probably isn’t), and you were looking forward to his retirement. We also suspect you harbor some resentment toward your husband, as well as Kara, for his indulgence of her. This isn’t so much about “winning” the argument as it is about accepting whatever decision is reached. We suggest you and your husband sit down with an unbiased third party and speak openly of your concerns. If Kara doesn’t go to her expensive college, will she use it as an excuse to blame her parents if she isn’t successful? Will your resentment boil over and create a permanent rift? Would your husband be willing to have Kara take out student loans for a portion of the cost? Hopefully, your discussion will allow for some kind of agreement so that each of you can let go of whatever resentment currently exists. Dear Annie: I love my family and friends dearly, but some of them think it is perfectly OK to stop by unannounced. I ask only for a simple phone call to see whether it is a convenient time for them to pop in. They all have cellphones, so it’s not a matter of them being unable to call. I understand the occasional unannounced visit, but not every time. How can I get them to stop? -- G. Dear G.: If you answered the door in your birthday suit, you might get them to call first, but don’t bet on it. Some people believe it is flattering that they feel so welcome, they pop in without notice. And while you might appreciate the thought, it is also inconsiderate to show up and interrupt your day when you may have other things going on. You can say, “I wish I’d known you were stopping by. I have to run out. Sorry.” And then leave. Or you can close the blinds and not answer the door, but we suspect if you were willing to do that, they would already know to phone first. Dear Annie: “No Name” was unhappy because his wife refuses sex. I’m sure my husband could have written that letter, but there’s more to it. Sex is easy. Intimacy is where the work and effort must be applied. Intimacy begins with a couple being able to discuss anything without the other person reacting badly. It begins by treating each other with respect, letting the spouse know she is loved. And liked. Friendship is the most solid basis for intimacy that I know of. My husband and I have been together a long time, but it’s pretty much all about him. He doesn’t like to talk about anything unless I agree with him completely. Anything else is criticizing or complaining. If I ask him to do something, I’m giving him orders. He refused to be close to me unless it was for sex. So I cut him off about 10 years ago. We tried counseling, but he lied at every session. There are reasons why we are still together, but I can’t help wondering for how long. -- Together but Alone Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Strong outlook for daily newspapers
S
mart newspapers today recognize they can run a very protable business by providing relevant, entertaining and innovative ideas and content. “Let’s not miss the point, either”, says Bill McDonald, group publisher of Metro English Canada. “Maybe there are some trends in place that show some declines in some areas. But newspapers still deliver a massive audience in every city across the country. That’s not changing. The Toronto Star still delivers one million readers every day. There’s no other medium with that kind of reach in one day.” In fact, threequarters of Canadians (13.9 million) read a printed edition of daily newspaper each week, according to NADbank readership 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 benets 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 sizeable 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.” “Major pubishers and media buyers agree— strong readership gures are testament to improved product. For daily delivery of your local newspaper in Cranbrook, call 250-426-5201. In Kimberley call 250-427-5333. SOURCE: NADBANK JOURNAL SEPT/08
