Conservation officers have euthanized four young cougars beside a walking trail at Cran-brook’s Elizabeth Lake.

The seven-month-old siblings were put down on Sunday beside the lake, within eyesight of Parkland Middle School, said Cran-brook Conservation Offi-cer (CO) Jared Connatty.

“It’s a really unfortunate thing; I don’t like doing that,” said Connatty. “But the alternative is much

more grim.”Connatty said that a

resident called the CO ser-vice on Saturday night to report a cougar killing a deer in their backyard, close to the school.

“We responded (Sun-day) morning to assess the situation and discovered that there is likely multiple cougars involved, which usually means a family unit — female and young ones, though we didn’t know how young they were.”

Connatty set his four

service hounds on the trail of the cougars, and the four young cats were quickly treed nearby.

“That’s a really good opportunity for us to as-sess them – to look and see what we’ve got.”

He realized the cougars were young – later con-firming they were about seven months old. The COs decided they needed to euthanize the animals, who were not with their mother.

Pork chops the apple of Danielle’s eyeSally MacDonalD

Townsman Staff

The scheming con-tinues in MasterChef Canada, but so far Cran-brook’s Danielle Cardo-zo seems to be ignoring the drama and benefit-ting from that.

Beware that reading on will reveal what hap-pens in this week’s epi-sode.

In Monday night’s fifth episode of the reali-ty cook-off series, Dan-ielle prepared one of the judges’ favourite dishes in the elimination chal-lenge. That means that our Danielle has been named a team captain in the team challenge in next week’s episode.

“It’s about damn time I stepped up to the plate (pun intended)!” Dan-ielle told the Townsman.

But first things first. The 13 remaining home cooks in the national television series were tasked with making a burger in the Mystery Box Challenge. Sounds simple, but the meats the contestants had to choose from were a little unusual: elk, bison, wild boar, musk ox, lamb, pork shoulder, turkey, kangaroo and duck.

“I went against my gut to make a big juicy elk burger (something I know works well) and tried something new,” Danielle said.

Instead, she made a lamb and bison burger, stuffed with feta, sun-dried tomatoes and herbs, on an open-faced grilled pita and served with a cucumber slaw.

“My healthy choice, according to the judg-es,  just wasn’t enticing enough. It wasn’t bad. Just not that big greasy mess of a burger that makes you want to dig right in,” she said.

Meanwhile, while Danielle was grinding meat for her burger, be-side her Eric Chong was slicing his fingers open in a bloody knife mishap.

“I was sharing a sta-tion with him during that challenge. When he cut himself and I saw the blood go everywhere, I had to start some self-talk and convince myself not to look back over. I wanted to (be) sick see-ing all that blood on the floor beside me.”

Kelowna’s Kaila Klas-sen won the challenge with her Oinkin’ Duck burger — a man-friendly pork and duck patty. For winning the challenge, Kaila got to choose the special ingredients that all of the other contes-tants would have to cook with in the elimination challenge.

After contestant Josh Gale tells the cameras that he’s not worried about Kaila having it in for him, Kaila reveals that she does in fact have it in for him, choosing apples and beer as the ingredients and making Josh cook a dessert with them in an attempt to eliminate him.

The move backfires because Josh cooks beer-infused profiteroles with caramelized apples, which the judges love.

Back from his injury,

Eric quips at just the wrong time that Kaila could only have won the challenge if everyone else cut themselves too; for that, Kaila forces him to bake with beer along with Josh. Eric doesn’t fare as well, making an apple pie with a beer-in-fused crust that is unfor-tunately undercooked.

He lands in the bot-tom three, alongside Danny Raposo and Pino Di Cerbo. Raposo is cut from the show.

Meanwhile, Danielle was scrambling when the special ingredients were revealed.

“I could have killed Kaila when I heard she picked beer and apples. Seriously? I mean, good choice for the competi-tion, but it wasn’t all that inspiring for me at the moment it was an-nounced.”

Danielle said that she has something of a per-sonality clash with her fellow Southern Interior contestant.

“Kaila and I had a funny relationship throughout the duration of the show. She and I are clearly total oppo-sites. She and I value very different things. We absolutely had a love-hate relationship.  But when it comes down to it, we are both extremely strong career-driven women. This meant we can both appreciate one another’s ambition. It also meant we are  killer competitive against one another.”

Learning from last week’s smelt challenge,

Danielle decided to trust her gut and stick to something familiar, thinking of pork chops and apple sauce.

“It’s a classic, and classics are just that for a reason. They’re good,” she said. “I made the conscious decision not to second guess myself. So I decided to add a lit-tle sophistication. I made sure I had beer and ap-ples in every component of the dish.”

It paid off. Her dish — a pork rib chop with a beer glaze and apple rel-

ish, served with dijon and apple cider new po-tatoes and a crisp green apple and mache salad — wowed the judges, and even surprised Dan-ielle herself a little.

“My first thought when I completed my dish: ‘Did I just make that?!’ I have to be hon-est: going into the chal-lenge, plating was not my strong point. I cook at home. It doesn’t have to look pretty, it just has to taste great. So to plate a dish, and have Michael Bonacini tell me that the

plating was clean and the other competitors could learn a thing or two from me? Mind blown! It was the boost of confidence I needed.

“In real  time, I was getting extremely dis-couraged at that point. I was  starting to feel like maybe the competition was a little beyond me. I really needed that win.”

As the judges an-nounced that Danielle’s was won of the top two dishes, the camera panned to her contes-tants — specifically Al-

The Cranbrook Archery Club is preparing to send a number of its members to the B.C. Winter Games.

The club will be sending five athletes to the games in Mission, on Wednesday. Elaine Johnson, head coach for the Cranbrook Ar-chery Club, said they’ve been busy getting ready for the compe-tition.

“We have been having regular registered shoots to help the kids with competing in an intense at-mosphere,” Johnson said. “This will help them get used to the stress of competing. You never get used to it but you learn to deal with it better.”

She explained that the Cran-brook Archery Club has anywhere from 35 to 45 kids participating in its youth program at one time de-

pending on the time of year. “The sport has taken off and it

is wonderful to see so many youth experiencing this great sport,” she said.

The five athletes that are going to the Games are: Jordan Adachi (compound) and Duncan Van der Roest (barebow) from Cranbrook, and Katrina Romanowicz (com-pound), Jessica Krewenchuk (compound) and Jason Dekkers (compound) from Kimberley.

“The kids are shooting three to four days per week prepping for the Games,” Johnson said. “We leave from the Cranbrook airport Wednesday night. I think reality is starting to sink in for the kids.”

She said they are feeling ner-vous and excited as the anticipa-tion of the event gets nearer. She added that this is also just the start for many of the young competi-tors.

“Sometimes they continue on with competitive archery and some settle back and relax and just shoot for fun,” she said. “The whole experience with the BC Winter Games is amazing. There is nothing quite like it.”

This is Johnson’s fourth Games as head coach. George Terpsma will be attending as coach as well in his third year. Vladimir Kopecky coaches the three kids from Kimberley. They practice at least three times a week and two of them attend the Cranbrook club’s regular regis-tered shoots.

“The experience is nothing that they will ever have again,” Johnson said. “It isn’t just about the sport, it is about the gathering of kids their own age who share the love for the sport in a social setting as well as competitive set-ting.”

Local archers aim for a bullseye

berta’s Dora Cote — roll-ing their eyes. Then the judges named Dora’s dish as the other winner, meaning the two contes-tants will face off against each other as team lead-ers in next week’s chal-lenge.

“Dora won the chal-lenge, so she will get first pick,” said Danielle. “I realize that I have to get strategic and start think-ing about who she is going to be picking. At this point in the compe-tition, you have got to know strengths and weaknesses; you know who will respect you as a captain. I know who Dora is likely to pick.  I know I am going to have to get extremely cre-ative.”

The next episode of MasterChef Canada will air Monday, Feb. 24 on CTV. As always, you can watch it at the Heid Out, which will serve a dish inspired by what Dan-ielle cooks in that epi-sode.

However, next week Danielle won’t be watch-ing at the Heid Out her-self. She’s off to Kelowna to watch the show with her friend Kaila.

“I am really excited to go see her, as I have not seen her since produc-tion!” said Danielle.

“The rationale be-hind that was: for one thing, I could see the school from where they were treed, right close to a residential area, a heavily used walking trail, people every-where, and they were laying right there,” said Connatty.

“The other concern-ing part is at that age, they are learning how to hunt. Oftentimes, they will try to assist the mother cougar in her killing efforts when they are trying to catch their prey.

“As you can imagine, having this within a few hundred yards of the school and a residential area and a heavily used walking trail around Elizabeth Lake, we don’t need four juvenile cou-gars getting really curi-ous.”

The COs removed the deer kill from the backyard, but that night the mother returned.

On Monday morn-ing, Connatty said he set his hounds off once more to track the female cougar. They followed the cougar for four hours. It travelled out to Silver Springs, then back over the south hill to the area beyond the Scandi-navian Lodge on 4th Av-enue. There, the hounds treed the female cougar.

Connatty said the COs are familiar with this animal.

“We had some good

history with this cougar. It’s known to be a deer and an elk killer, which is a good thing,” he said.

Because it has a long history of normal be-haviour, the COs decid-ed to tranquilize the cougar, fit her with a GPS collar, and release her in the same area.

“The one point I real-ly would like to get across is that this cougar is doing normal and natural behaviour in an abnormal, unnatural place,” said Connatty.

“She’s a deer killer – that is normal and natu-ral. So we felt that we need to allow her to live a little longer. Because what can happen is if we remove her, she’s a ma-ture female, they have territorial instincts, she has been living there her whole life. That opens up that area to a cougar that’s not as good.”

He pointed out that it’s unusual for a female cougar to have four kit-tens in a litter – the aver-age is two or three.

“That has just elimi-nated a whole ton of stress. With four kittens, she’s expected to kill a lot more frequently,” said Connatty.

He said one deer kill would feed five cougars for two days. On its own, the female cougar will only need to kill a deer every five to seven days.

“It’s really important to identify that this is not a typical response for us.

But we had the opportu-nity and every once in a while, the situation will lend itself to that,” said Connatty.

He said if the cougar had killed a dog or live-stock, they would have euthanized the female as well because it’s a learned behaviour.

As it is, the COs will monitor the cougar’s GPS path closely.

“If she starts to show signs of increased time in town or the potential to become a public safe-ty issue like we felt the juveniles were, then we will make a decision as to what needs to be done at that point. But as of now, we don’t have any major concerns with her because she’s a good cougar. She’s doing what she’s sup-posed to do and there’s lots of deer and elk in that area. And that’s where we left her.”

Connatty said that Cranbrook’s urban deer sometimes draw cou-gars into the edge of town.

“We don’t often get cougar brave enough to come into these urban environments. Where we generally see them is on the outskirts where they have green belts that they can approach the area that way.

“They need the cover; they need the bush. They need that stuff to sneak around and get in close to things. That’s why peo-

Do you know a person or group who has helped strength-en Cranbrook’s community val-ues?

If so, you can nominate them for the 2013 Sustainable Com-munity Builder Award.

“The Sustainable Communi-ty Builder Award is presented to an individual, group, club, agen-cy or society in recognition of outstanding contributions to the social, arts, cultural, economic or environmental sustainability of the City of Cranbrook,” said Mayor Wayne Stetski.

Last year, the Cranbrook

Health Care Auxiliary took the honour. In 2010, it was the Cran-brook Farmers’ Market Society, and in 2009 it was Debbie Sin-clair, then executive director of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Cran-brook.

For the first time this year, the recipient of the award will re-ceive $500 to be donated to the charity of their choice. The do-nation comes from a legacy fund left by the Knights of Pythias, Crescent Lodge #33 of Cran-brook, to the Cranbrook and District Community Founda-tion.

The Foundation is partnering with the City of Cranbrook to

offer the award, and executive director Riley Wilcox says the city’s commitment to the award shows that Cranbrook citizens work hard to strengthen the community.

“The Sustainable Communi-ty Builder Award values our greatest resource – our citizens,” said Wilcox. “Without their ef-forts, our community would not shine as brightly as it does. They are the heart of our city.”

Application forms and eligi-bility criteria are available at City Hall, at www.cranbrook.ca or at www.cranbrookcf.ca. The deadline for nominations is Wednesday, April 30, 2014.

Connatty said COs have not received any other reports of cougar sightings around Cran-brook in the past week.

Finance Minister Mike de Jong unveiled B.C.’s second straight surplus budget Tues-day, with few spending and tax changes as the province plans for economic growth driven by natural gas exports.

The biggest tax change is that provincial tobacco tax goes up 32 cents a pack April 1, on top of the latest federal increase of 40 cents a pack. B.C.’s share is expected to generate anoth-er $50 million, and de Jong said a “significant portion” of that will be used to devel-op smoking prevention ef-forts in partnership with the Canadian Cancer Society.

Provincial funding for K-12 education continues at 2013 levels, as the government pursues an appeal of a court decision that could add hundreds of millions to school district costs. The budget includes a $300 million contingency fund this year, rising to $400 million next year, to cover anticipated costs in labour and other areas such as for-est fires.

The budget touts investments in trade skills training, with shop projects at Ca-mosun College, Okanagan College and NorKam Secondary in Kamloops. But the largest capital project is a new campus for Emily Carr College of Art and Design in Vancouver, and operating spending on colleges and institutes is projected to fall

by $5 million in the coming year.De Jong said the “re-engineering” of

B.C.’s skills training programs referred to in last week’s throne speech is getting under-way, and a new $1,200 education savings grant for children born in 2007 or later is

being delivered starting this year.

NDP finance critic Mike Farnworth said the govern-ment balanced its budget with cuts to skills training, increases to fees and appro-priating $480 million added to BC Hydro’s growing debt.

The B.C. Liberals spent heavily before the 2013 election to promote a jobs plan that has seen people continue to leave the province for work, Farnworth said.

The government expects to end the cur-rent year with an operating surplus of $175 million, rising to $184 million next year, which de Jong said is mainly a result of spending discipline. B.C. and Saskatche-wan are the only provinces to balance bud-gets this year, and the three western prov-inces remain the only ones with a triple-A credit rating.

B.C.’s personal income tax rates remain the lowest of any province, but the budget announced another four per cent increase in Medical Services Plan premiums for next year. That makes increases totalling more than 30 per cent over the past five years.

Taxpayer-supported debt rises to more than $43 billion in the coming fiscal year, climbing to $45.5 billion by 2016-17. About $11 billion of next year’s burden is operat-ing debt left by a string of deficits in recent years.

Total provincial debt, including self-sup-ported debt held by BC Hydro and other agencies, grows from $64.7 billion this year to $68.9 billion three years from now.

B.C. pays $2.5 billion a year to service debt, or four cents out of each revenue dol-lar.

To generate the resource wealth Pre-mier Christy Clark has promised will pay off B.C.’s debt, the budget describes a two-tier income tax on liquefied natural gas exports 1.5 per cent and up to seven per cent.

LNG production companies would pay the lower rate to start, with most or all of it repaid by an investment tax credit until their capital costs have been recovered. Rates are to be confirmed with legislation in the fall.

No revenues from LNG are expected until 2017, and in the first three years, pro-ducers would recover income tax through a credit that continues until their capital in-vestment is paid off.

Over twenty fighters from Rocky Moun-tain Academy of Martial Arts in Cranbrook BC headed to Fernie to test their mettle in the WKU (World Kickboxing Council) Southern BC Provincial Martial Arts Tour-nament.

Cranbrook’s RMAMA had the largest contingent of fighters at the tournament this year fielding fighters aged 5 to 35 and coming home with many medals and awards. The other club with lots of sup-port was the host club, Five Elements out of Calgary Alberta.

Provincial winners from RMAMA were as follows: Dave Buckley achieved Gold in adult Continuous Sparring and Silver In Muay Thai. Tyson Hircher won Silver in adult continuous sparring, gold in Muay Thai and Gold in Continuous sparring under 18. Cole McNolty was on fire and received Gold in Continuous sparring and Gold in Muay Thai.

Weston Green came away Silver in Continuous sparring and Gold in K1 Kick-boxing. Tage Leiman received two silver medals one for continuous and one for muay Thai. Keaton Smith received two silver medals one for continuous sparring and one for K1 kickboxing.

The provincial tournament was amaz-ing to watch with very fast-paced action and a high level of skill shown. However the intermediate and beginners fights were fun to watch as well.

Most notable in the children’s were the 3 to five year olds out of sheer cuteness and Dante Young, who at eight years old was able to achieve gold in two categories by showing excellent footwork and tim-ing.

All the competitors showed great sportsmanship and respect, which is per-haps the greatest lessons these tourna-ments and martial arts in general can teach.

In the beginner and intermediate bouts the following RMAMA fighters took home medals. Dante young came home with first in intermediate 6-8 year olds continu-

ous sparring and points sparring. Korben Buckley took home second in intermedi-ate 6-8 year old continuous. Seth Ryley took a hard-fought second in 12 to 14 year old intermediate continuous sparring.

In ages 12 to 14 beginners continuous sparring, Cole Yoshaka came home with a third place trophy, Brayden Farquar took second and Hayden Wendt took first. In the nine to eleven year old beginners con-tinuous, Will Wendt came home with a first-place trophy and Tathen Marra re-ceived second and Joey Koran came in third. In age nine to elven intermediate Tom Sutton came in first. In 6 to eight year

old continuous beginners Ryder Seriani brought home a first-place trophy and Lily Rudrum brought home second. In the 3 to 5 year old division Maise Buckley took home a second place trophy and Colton Marra took home a third.

There was plenty of drama at this tour-nament, with some friendly rivalries and some excellent fast-paced action. This sport will continue to grow and next year’s provincial will probably be even better. Expect big things from this martial arts club from the small town of Cranbrook BC, because small or not RMAMA gets it done.

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

With the post-season stretch ramping up, the Kootenay Ice are battling for home-ice advantage, and will face one of their biggest obstacles on Wednesday night.

Currently sitting in fifth place, the Ice are five points shy of reach-ing fourth place, which is occupied by the Medi-cine Hat Tigers—the same team they will face off against.

Needless to say, it will be an important divi-sional matchup.

The Tigers have the upper hand in the regu-lar season series, with three wins in four games. All those came in their home barn in Medicine Hat, while Kootenay’s lone win came off a 4-3 performance in Western Financial Place in Janu-ary.

“It’s probably nice that it’s here,” said Ice forward Luke Philp, “We’ve struggled there a bit, for whatever reason it is.

“They’re a good team though, real fast and we’re going to have to play fast too, but we know what to expect from them, so we’re

going to be ready.”The Tigers have won

seven of their last 10 games, while the Ice have been one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference, winning eight of their last 10.

Three of those wins came during a four-game road trip into Sas-katchewan, where they beat Moose Jaw, and won a pair against the Wheat Kings, while los-ing to Regina.

“It was fun on the road, but we probably didn’t play our best hockey in Moose Jaw and in Brandon, I thought we could’ve played a lot better,” said Philp. “We got the wins, which was key, but we’re going to have to play bet-ter for these next games if we’re going to get more wins.”

The Tigers aren’t a team to be dismissed, es-pecially when it’s led by Curtis Valk, who is riding the longest active point streak in the WHL at 18 games. Ice captain Sam Reinhart is one game be-hind him, riding a 17-game streak.

Valk leads his team in scoring, followed by line mates Trevor Cox and Cole Sanford.

“I think we got to be hard on those top three guys—Valk, Sanford and Cox,” said Philp. “They’ve been good, pretty much been putting up points against us every game.

“We’ve got to be hard on them off the get-go and make life hard for them.”

Ice look to cage the Tigers

C ANADIAN PRESS

SOCHI, Russia - Canada is still in the mix for the most overall medals at the Sochi Olympics after capturing a pair of silvers on Tuesday, but the leaders may be starting to pull away.

Canada’s team has a goal of winning the most medals in Sochi, and silvers from halfpipe skier Mike Riddle and the women’s short-track relay team helped keep the leading Dutch and American teams in sight.

But time may be running out, with just five days of com-petition left. Like Canada, the U.S. will win a medal in wom-en’s hockey, and will likely at least match the Canadian team in men’s hockey and women’s bobsled.

The Netherlands has domi-nated in long-track speedskat-ing, and with three more medal events to go are likely to add to

their total.Canada could make up a

couple of medals in curling, where the men and women’s teams will compete in Wednes-day’s semifinals. Neither the Dutch nor the Americans are factors in those events.

Canada can also move clos-er to a men’s hockey medal when they play 11th-ranked Latvia in Wednesday’s quar-ter-finals. Latvia shocked Swit-zerland 3-1 Tuesday to set up a favourable matchup for the de-fending-champion Canadians.

Canada has 17 medals (four gold, nine silver, four bronze) through Day 12 of the Games, good for fifth place. The Neth-erlands and the U.S. each have 20, while host Russia has 19 and Norway 18.

Germany leads the gold-medal table with eight.

Riddle’s silver increased Canada’s medal count in free-

style skiing to an Olympic-best seven (three gold, three silver, one bronze).

The native of Sherwood Park, Alta., overcame wet and snowy conditions at Rosa Khutor Extreme Park to score 90.60 points on his final run. That was bettered only by the 92 scored by David Wise of the United States.

“It’s unbelievable,” said Rid-dle. “I put down a good run in what were difficult conditions. I knew I had a chance.”

Riddle said he’d never done the combination that won him the medal - back-to-back dou-ble cork 1260s.

“I decided it was a good time to do it for the first time,” he said.

Ski halfpipe is making its Olympic debut in Sochi, thanks in part to the efforts of Canada’s Sarah Burke, who died in a training accident in 2012.

“I don’t think we would be here without her,” said Riddle. “Ski halfpipe has got to where it is because of her.”

While Canada’s freestyle ski team has exceeded expecta-tions in Sochi, its short-track speedskating team has been a disappointment.

The women’s 3,000-metre relay team won just the second short-track medal for Canada with Marie-Eve Drolet of Chi-coutimi, Que., Jessica Hewitt of Kamloops, B.C., Valerie Maltais of Le Baie, Que., Marianne St-Gelais of St. Felicien, Que., and Jessica Gregg of Edmonton finishing second behind South Korea.

Silver seems to be Canada’s destiny lately, with the women being bumped up from third to second place after China was disqualified for not clearing the track fast enough after passing the baton.

With two silvers, Canada’s medal total reaches 17

Calgary Stampeders hire Marc Mueller as defensive

assistant coachCALGARY - The Calgary Stampeders have added

Marc Mueller to the coaching staff as a defensive as-sistant, filling their coaching roster.

Mueller is the grandson of the late Ron Lancaster, the Hall-of-Fame quarterback and longtime head coach in the CFL.

Last season, Mueller was quarterbacks coach of the University of Regina Rams, his alma mater.

Under the 24-year-old Regina native’s guidance, the Rams led Canada West in passing offence with 359.4 yards per game.

The Stampeders have already hired Rich Stubler as defensive co-ordinator and Pat DelMonaco as offen-sive line coach.

“Marc is a young, dynamic individual with a keen football mind and I know he will be an excellent addi-tion to our veteran group of coaches,” said Calgary head coach John Hufnagel in a statement.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You already have seen a vari-ety of different reactions from people this week, and the trend continues. Your mind might wander to a person who has displayed a new dynamic char-acteristic, or at least it seems new to you. Tonight: You need a midweek break! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You will have a sense that you are heading in the right direc-tion. Focus on what you want, and finish up any errands you might have. Your sensitivity might emerge in a discussion with a friend whose perspective does not work for you. Tonight: Where you want to be. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Deal with a dear friend directly. Often this person amuses you, gives you food for thought and serves as a muse. You could be surprised by what he or she has to say. A child demands high energy, but before you know it, you will be playing alongside him or her. Tonight: Go have fun.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Understanding that everyone has limits will be easy, but the issue will be that your limits can be different from the majority of people. Your values come into play here, as your family, home and loved ones rank on the top of your priorities. Tonight: Do what makes you happy. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be greeted by a mass of paperwork as you start your day. You might need to adjust plans because of what you hear. Though doing work is import-ant, nothing takes priority over the key relationships of your life. Tonight: Make it an early night. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Be aware of impending expens-es before you go shopping; this will allow you to have a more realistic budget. Most of you easily could overspend. Keep your receipts, and count your change. A shift in your prefer-ences could occur as soon as tomorrow. Tonight: Hang out. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You’ll move through your day

with high energy. If someone trips you up, you are likely to be less than diplomatic. You can apologize for what you say, and the other party might accept your apology. Still, the damage will be done. Tonight: Make it your treat. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Listen to news more openly than you have in the past. Your ability to bypass problems and get past an issue could emerge later in the day. You don’t need to say much, but you will need to interfere with a negative course of events. Tonight: Nap, then decide. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Touch base with friends. Note how many of your associates have assumed a bigger role in your life. Look around in a meeting. Someone will take the ball and run with it. Rather than get competitive, enjoy that it is not you who is assuming more responsibility. Tonight: Out late. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Reconsider a decision involving an older person or a higher-up. First, realize that it probably

was an emotional choice. You could be overly passionate about an issue that ultimately could cause you a problem. To-night: A talk is likely to lead to a good time. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Take an opportunity to detach from a problem before push-ing for your desired outcome. By gaining a more complete perspective, you will be able to come up with an appropriate response or solution. Tonight: In the limelight. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Reach out to someone with whom you often share ideas. The two of you brainstorm well together, which creates a greater sense of give-and-take. Weigh the pros and cons of an idea before launching into action, and you will be pleased with the results. Tonight: Follow the music. BORN TODAY Singer/songwriter Smokey Robinson (1940), actor Lee Mar-vin (1924), astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus (1473) ***

Dear Annie: I have an amazing dad. He coaches my lacrosse team and is always up for a game in the yard. But I am growing very nervous about his health. Dad eats fast food every day at work and comes home to enjoy a home-cooked meal topped with a large amount of salt. He then sits in front of the TV with a huge bowl of buttered popcorn and a beer. If he’s not play-ing lacrosse with me in the yard, he gets no exercise at all. Nothing is motivating my dad to watch what he eats. He is quite tall, so weight doesn’t show on him the way it might on someone else. But I happen to know that his cholesterol level is horrible, and no one could be healthy eating the way he does. I have approached my dad many times about this and even offered to prepare a lunch for him. He either ignores me or shrugs his shoulders and jokes about it. I have run out of ideas. I desperately want my dad to be healthy, but I don’t want him to think he’s being bossed around by his 12-year-old daughter. Any ideas? -- Ignored in Louisville Dear Ignored: You are sweet to be worried about Dad, but please understand that until your father is ready to watch what he eats, nothing you say or do will make much differ-ence. He knows how you feel, he knows his cholesterol numbers, and chances are, your mom has also said something to him. He may wake up one morning and decide to be healthier. Until then, however, the most you can do is love him the way he is and get him to join you for more lacrosse in the backyard. Dear Annie: After 31 years of marriage, my son-in-law decided he was unhappy and wrote his own divorce papers. My daughter read them and made a couple of changes, and the divorce became final last year. My ex-son-in-law was never a good provid-er, and his indiscretions are far too numer-ous to list. However, he still calls and comes over all the time. They have two adult sons who have not been told that they are legally divorced. Yesterday, I got a call from my daughter asking whether I had sent him a birthday card. I replied, “No, I don’t consider him part of the family.” She said, “Well, he is the father of your grandsons.” Did I do wrong? -- Annoyed Grandma Dear Grandma: You are not obligated to send your ex-son-in-law a birthday card, but he was a member of your family for 31 years and probably still wants to be treated as such. And if your daughter wants you to send him a card, it would be a kindness to do so. But for heaven’s sake, one of them should notify the children of their parents’ legal sta-tus. Dear Annie: You printed a letter from “Con-cerned Sister,” who said her sister’s clothing smells like her cat litter box. She wants her to store the litter box in the garage. Maybe the sister simply needs to clean the box more often. Animals are fastidious, especially cats. They like a clean place to do their business. Too many people are too lazy to take proper care of the cat’s boxes. I had seven litter boxes at one time. I cleaned them before I went to work, after coming home and before going to bed. Many friends visited me, and not one could smell the cat boxes. (And don’t use perfumes or air fresh-eners to mask the smell. They don’t work and may drive away the cat.) Think of it this way: Do you like going into a restroom where the previous user forgot to flush? As an added bonus to cleaning the box often, you will also be alerted if your kitty is sick. -- 42 Years of Experience in Jackson-ville, Fla.

Happy Birthday Gran-DellaLove from all your family

Shirley Joan Roe 1936-2014

It is with great sadness that the family of Shirley Joan Roe announces her passing on the morning of Thursday, February 13, 2014. She died peacefully in her home in Kimberley, BC at the age of 77.

Shirley was born in Fernie, BC on November 12, 1936.

After graduating high school in Fernie, she came to Kimberley to work for Cominco. She met and married the love of her life, David Nelson Roe on June 27, 1959 and they made their home in Kimberley.   David and Shirley led a very quiet and private life. They enjoyed camping and fishing at all the local area lakes. While David had his woodwork to keep him busy Shirley loved to knit!  Whether it was for her kids and grandkids or for local organizations she was always looking for things to knit. She was a regular volunteer at both the Kimberley and Marysville Thrift Shops for 27 years. Shirley also attended the local senior aqua-fit classes. Over the years she got so much joy from her twice weekly senior swims, enjoying the exercise and camaraderie with her fellow swimmers.

Family was important to Shirley. She was always extremely proud of the accomplishments of her children and grandchildren.  She leaves to cherish her memory, her three children: Lori Tedrick (Doug) of Kimberley, Sandra Wilson (Jeff) of Sparwood, and Gary Roe (Tammy) of Edmonton, 5 grandchildren: David (Taryn), Jordan (Kristina), Cheryl (Andrew), Josh and Robbie, 4 great grandchildren: Brittany, Walker, Ryder, and Jaylyn. She also leaves behind her sister Kaye (Lister) Canning, brothers Bob (Lolly) Hockley and Cal (Gloria) Hockley, Sister-in laws Kae Hockley, Doreen Hockley and Margaret O’Neill, brother-in-law Ken (Rochelle) Roe and cousin-in-law Dianne Chalmers as well as many nieces, nephews and friends.

David and Shirley had a very close and loving relationship and she greatly mourned his passing in 2006. Along with David, she was predeceased by, her parents Sanders and Lilian Hockley, brothers Jim, Arthur, Leslie, Wilfred and Clifford, sisters Violet and Doreen, cousin-in-law David Chalmers as well as two brothers-in-law and four sisters-in-law.

There will be no service at Shirley’s request. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to a charity of your choice.

It only takes a few seconds to say goodbye to someone you love, but it will take the rest

of your life to forget them, because the memory lives on forever in your heart.

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper

1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.
