Acclaimed musi-cians Lily String Quarter will perform in Cran-brook on Sunday, Nov.17.
Golden pianist Sue Gould will join Lily String Quartet members Also on stage will be double bassist Matt Heller, currently a mem-ber of the Calgary Phil-harmonic Orchestra
and founder of the Clas-sical Revolution.
“Playing with a great bass player is such an awesome thing to do,” said the cellist of Lily String Quartet, Andrea Case. “The bass is often relegated in our thoughts to the back of the orchestra, but its depth and richness in a small group is incredi-ble. It shakes up your
sense of what low means and totally changes the cello’s role, usually the lowest voice in a quar-tet.”
Lily String Quartet with Matt Heller and Sue Gould will perform their concert “Lilies at the Bass of the Rockies” on Sunday, November 17 at 2 p.m. at Knox Presbyterian Church in Cranbrook. Tickets are $20 for an adult, $15 for a senior or student. Music students and kids under 12 are free.

Introducing Nutri MULTI for women featuring 1000 IU of VITAMIN D in a new
super-sized, pleasant tasting formula.
Why you should consider a LIQUID multivitamin supplement. Many experts now believe that consuming vitamin supplements in liquid form is substantially more benefi cial than relying on solid pills-a belief that is supported by research studies: “liquid supplements contain the nutrients in a more highly bioavailable form, are gentler to the stomach, and sometimes are more suitable than solid supplements, especially for children and elderly patients.”The liquid advantageA liquid multivitamin supplement offers a number of benefi ts over solid forms for people of all ages, but especially for older adults or those with known digestive issues. Among the benefi ts are the following:• Liquids are quickly and readily absorbed, as they do not fi rst need to be broken down.
• Liquids contain no fi llers, binders or coatings that may interfere with proper dissolution.
• Liquids are fully dissolved upon ingestion, and allow for absorption of key nutrients along the entire gastrointestinal tract.
• Liquids are a welcome alternative for people who have trouble swallowing solid pills, particularly children, the elderly and those who are ill or convalescing.
• Due to enhanced absorption of nutrients, liquids may allow for lower general dosing than with solid pills.

Booster is one of the best available. Over 400 medical studies have been done on the benefits of using
Coriolus Versicolor. In car traffic it would be unimaginable not to try to
prevent accidents and injury. Hopefully this principle applies to maintaining maximum health.
Dr. C. Moerman M.D. states that virtually all diseases stem from a weak immune system. Many other health
professionals say the same thing. Vast amounts of information are available on this product Coriolus
Versicolor on the internet and in books. It is considered useful for dispelling heat, removing
toxins, strengthening pysique, increasing energy and enhancing immune function. In the clinical practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Coriolus Versicolor is considered to be beneficial to health and able to

Food Banks Canada has released its annual study of food bank usage across the country, and it indicates that need remains near record highs.
The report took a look at usage during one random month earlier this year and found that 833,000 peo-ple, one third of them children, relied on food banks during that time. That was down only slightly from 872,379 the previous year.
Of greatest concern to Food Banks Canada is that food bank use still re-mains higher than it was before the recession hit. It is a national problem and no region is without it.
In British Columbia, 19,002 peo-ple were assisted by a Food Bank in March 2013.
In this area, a study called Food Banks of the Columbia Basin, found that during a test month in 2012, 4,175 people were served.
Right here in Kimberley, food bank use has remained at about the
same level for the past several years. In March 2012, the Helping Hands Food Bank served 320 people, about a third of them children.
Heather Smith from Kimberley’s Helping Hands Food Bank agrees that numbers remain much higher than she’d like to see. Food Banks Canada also says that a big portion of food bank users are the working poor, and Smith says that is definitely the case in Kimberley.
“We have a lot of clients who work casual and part-time. $10 an hour for two hours doesn’t get you very far. And a lot of people have child care as well. We don’t have homeless people with absolutely no place to go. Our people couch surf. TIn reality they are homeless but they are okay as long as they have someone to stay with.”
But the majority of the Kimberley Food Bank’s clients are those on fixed income, such as disability pensions.
“And seniors,” Smith said. “The number of seniors is shocking. It’s gone from one per cent of our clients ten years ago to six per cent now. That’s a horrendous increase.”

The Cultural Kitchen Gets
Cooking
The Cultural Kitchen workshop program is currently underway in Kimberley in the kitch-en at the Blarchmont Learning Centre. This program is open to ev-eryone, with a focus on sharing culture in the kitchen. While sharing recipes, local food re-sources are being intro-duced that are available for loan by everyone in the community from Wildsight Kimberley Cranbrook. Equipment available includes an Apple Press, Dehydra-tors, and Fruit Strainers.
The idea behind this program is to come to-gether over food to learn, develop friend-ships, become better ac-quainted with the com-munity and give a warm welcome to newcomers from other countries.
We’ve dehydrated fruits and vegetables in addition to making fresh juice from locally har-vested apples. Partici-pants have expressed how much easier it will be to borrow some of this equipment now and
in the future, after going through the process in person once.
The recipes we take on are dependent on in-terest within the group, decided the week previ-ous and always differ-ent. A particular focus on how culture express-es through food makes this experience really unique. Kimberley is more and more multi-cultural, and pre-paring food is a wonder-ful way to come together and celebrate our grow-ing diversity.
Everyone eats, so food is a natural com-mon denominator. We all have different ap-proaches, and it’s a rich opportunity to share those differences. With our local climate, food preservation is a great way to continue local food sources into the winter months. We are exploring how to com-bine our unique ap-proaches with preserv-ing food throughout the series.
“There has been in-terest expressed in learning about the pro-cess of making meat jerky. We are looking for a mentor to help explain this process for partici-pants,” says Shannon
Duncan, project coordi-nator. “If you have expe-rience with this form of preservation, I’d love for you to get in touch and share some of what you’ve learned.”
There are eight ses-sions in total, with the fifth coming up on Wednesday November 13. This Wednesday we’re making different varieties of Miso Soup, which is perfect for the weather these days!
As part of the Wel-coming Communities project, Columbia Basin Alliance for Literacy, and Wildsight Kimber-ley Cranbrook have teamed up to provide these workshops for free. This project is made possible through funding from the Gov-ernment of Canada and the Province of British Columbia.
This program is free and open to everyone, but registration is ap-preciated. If you’re in-terested in coming to learn and share new recipes, and have a great time meeting new peo-ple, it’s worth checking out. To find out more information about tim-ing, contact Shannon at (250)427-7981 or [email protected].

From Page 3The Helping Hands
Food Bank is now gear-ing up for the Christmas hamper campaign. In a typical year the Food Bank hands out about 200 hampers at Christ-mas. Part of the fund-raising for that is the Angel Tree program. The trees will begin ap-pearing next week in local businesses and of-
fices.One of the things that
has always been true of the Kimberley Food Bank is that it receives tremendous communi-ty support.
“We are very good with volunteers. It’s sur-prising how many peo-ple support the food bank, both weekly and at Christmas. Our orga-nization is all volunteer,
there are no paid em-ployees. That’s very much in the minority for food banks.”
Hampers go out on December 20 this year, and the only area where extra help may be need-ed is with getting the groceries into the Angli-can Church Hall on Thursday, December 19.

ANTHONY DR ANSFELDFor the Bulletin
Elmer Pelto’s story really begins on 1940, just before the outbreak of World War 2. It was a Saturday morning and his mother Bertha had young Elmer run up-town to buy a loaf of bread at the bakery on Wallinger Ave. Elmer, who was then seven years old, remembers seeing two police cars flying down the street. When young Pelto ar-rived home, his house was filled with neig-bours, police and grim faced Consolidated Mining And Smelting (Cominco) bosses. The worst possible news; his father Matt Pelto had been killed up at the mine. Elmer and his sis-
ter Helen and their mom Bertha stayed on in Kimberley after losing Matt.
Pelto later suffered another family tragedy when his step dad Mar-tin was killed in an auto accident near Creston.
Sports are a great outlet for young people — Elmer Pelto joined a Kimberley hockey team that was coached by Fa-ther Monahan and was , called “Monahans Cru-saders”. Hockey became very therapeutic for Elmer, and he was to find out that he was pretty good at it too.
TIMe FLIeS WHeN YOU aRe HaVINg
FUN
61 years ago right about now, a teenage
Elmer Pelto left home in Kimberley to play Junior A Hockey for the Cal-gary Buffalos in 1952. The next season Elmer Pelto was invited to the Crowsnest Coalers training camp, and made the club. The team was Coached by “Wild Bill” Hunter who later became the Gener-al Manager of the Ed-monton Oilers of the WHA, Gretzky, Messier et al......
Elmer was playing defense for the Coalers and was “sold” to the Medicine Hat Tigers hours before the Crows-nest team folded its op-erations. Bill Hunter re-appeared as Coach of Medicine Hat, that sea-son (1953) where Elmer scored the overtime
winner against the Regi-na Pats (and was promp-ty beaten up by Murray Balfour for his efforts). Balfour would be dead of a lung tumour at the age of 28, but not before playing on the best line in hockey up in Chicago with Bobby Hull and Stan Makita which was aptly named “The Mil-lion Dollar Line”. The Coach of the Chicago Black Hawks was Billy “ Tulip” Reay who had a stable of stars in ,Eric Nesterenko, Pit Martin,
Kenny Wharram, Moose Vasko, Dennis Hull, the aforemen-tioned Murray Balfour, their terrific goaler Glenn Hall and the mercurial Pierre Pilote who was the best defen-seman in the N.H.L. until Bobby Orr ap-peared on the scene.
Bill Reay obviously had his eye on Elmer Pelto years before when Billy had just re-tired from a 10 year NHL career with Mon-treal Canadiens, and was given the Coaching job for the Seattle Americans, spotting young Pelto playing Ju-nior in “ The Hat”.
Elmer had signed an “A” form with Seattle,
who called up Pelto and Val Fontayne from the Medicine Hat Tigers after they were knocked out by the Regina Pats, Elmer declined and re-turned home to Kim-berley to work for C. M. and S. Elmer had played in Medicine Hat with “the one of a kind” Larry Plante , a hulking defenseman on the Ti-gers, who liked to eat light bulbs and beer glasses in the bar after games (with a pitcher of beer to wash the glass down). Plante looked exactly like Herman Munster from the TV Series, with the haircut and 6 feet 4 inches. You cannot make this stuff up folks, I can see him
now. Plante was a classic.
Danny ‘Sully’ Sullivan, our local barber, played against Larry Plante back then, and re-freshed my memory on “Herman Munster”.Larry is still kicking after all that glass inges-tion , and is a scout for the Toronto Blue Jays covering Medicine Hat and surrounding area.
Speaking of baseball I should mention that Elmer Pelto was a first rate fast ball catcher in his prime, and probably was the best in town at the position of catcher.

week in the Bulletin.

PUBLIC NOTICE
Roland Capilo will spend two years in jail for an accident near
Cranbrook on January 1, 2012,
that killed his 20-year-old
niece
Sally MacDonalDTownsman Staff
It was an emotional day in Cranbrook court Thursday for the sen-tencing of Roland Capi-lo over the death of his niece, Brittany Capilo.
Roland Capilo was driving on New Year’s Day 2012 on the ?aq’am (St. Mary’s) reserve when the van crashed, killing 20-year-old Brit-tany.
After he pleaded guilty in May to danger-ous driving causing death and failure to stop at an accident causing bodily harm, Roland Capilo’s sen-tencing was scheduled for Thursday, Novem-ber 7, 2013 in Cran-brook Provincial Court.
Members of Britta-ny’s and Roland’s fami-ly were in court to hear the sentence, and Judge Ron Webb gave Capilo a chance to read a writ-ten apology to the fami-ly.
At times too emo-tional to speak, Capilo stood facing Brittany’s mother to offer his first apology since the inci-
dent.“I never intended to
harm her or anybody in the vehicle,” he said.
“There are times I wish that I went and not her.”
Capilo said the crash prompted him to stop drinking, and he has not had a drink since that day.
“Whenever New Year’s comes along, while everyone is out celebrating, I’ll be hurt-ing, thinking of my niece Brittany who I loved so dearly.”
After Roland had fin-ished speaking, Britta-ny’s mother responded through tears.
“I don’t hate you,” she said. “I just wanted to grieve with you.
“It’s not too late.”Back in May when
Capilo pleaded guilty, the court heard that the crash occurred on LD Ranch Road at around 5 a.m. on January 1, 2012.
There were five peo-ple in a Dodge van driv-en by Roland Capilo, and they had been driv-ing back from the hoo-doos on the reserve after celebrating the new year.
Occupants of the ve-hicle reported that Cap-ilo had been drinking, and was driving at around 100 kilometres an hour.
Brittany Capilo was seated in the middle of the rear passenger seat and was not wearing a seatbelt.
Roland lost control of the vehicle, and it rolled six times before coming to a stop. Britta-
ny was thrown about 25 metres from the van and died at the scene.
Roland fled the scene before RCMP ar-rived, but a police dog tracked the man down. He then told RCMP that he ran away because he was scared and didn’t know what to do.
On Thursday, Crown counsel told the judge that a sentence no less than two years would be appropriate. Judge Webb interrupted argu-ments to say there was no point going into why two years should be the minimum.
“I am hard pressed to find anything to sup-port the notion that a sentence less than what is suggested by the Crown would be appro-priate,” said Judge Webb. “The Crown is being extremely fair.”
The judge recog-nized the impact that the crash has had on the Capilo family and the ?aq’am community, and he said he under-stands that sending Ro-land Capilo to jail may not accomplish any-thing further.
Drunk driver sentenced for New Year’s crashBut, Judge Webb
said, the issue of deter-rence is still important, pointing out that Capilo was driving between 80 kilometres an hour and 120 kilometres an hour on ice and gravel, after the passengers had urged him to slow down, after consuming between eight and 10 beer.
“Your behaviour after the fact was simply a panic driven situa-
tion,” said Judge Webb.He asked Brittany’s
mother for her position on the sentence sought by Crown.
She said that all she wanted was an apology from a man she had known most of her life.
“I feel bad that he has live with this mem-ory for the rest of his life. But I have to live without a daughter for the rest of my life,” she said.
In the end, Judge Webb handed down a two-year sentence for Capilo: 18 months on the charge of danger-ous driving causing death, and six months consecutive on the charge of failure to stop at an accident causing bodily harm. After he is released, Capilo will be on a two-year driving prohibition.
“I appreciate your efforts to maintain so-
briety since the inci-dent,” Judge Webb said to Capilo. “I hope that continues and I wish you well.
“This is nothing more than a tragedy. I hope you can get your life back on track and restore the relation-ships with your family.”
I feel bad that he has live with this memory for
the rest of his life. But I have to live without a daugh-ter for the rest of
my life.
PAGE 6 TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 2013
It occurred to me as I watched the faces of veterans yesterday that they still very clearly remember what it was like to be
in battle, to put their life on the line. Their contribution to all of our lives is a profound one, and as always, I was happy to see the large crowds at the ceno-taph.
I am especially happy to see people bringing young children to the an-nual ceremony. It is so very important that No-vember 11 never become just another stat holiday. Bringing your children to the ceremony is one of the only ways to ensure that never happens, that each succeeding genera-tion gives those who served, and continue to serve, the honour they deserve.
Wars are fought for many reasons, not always as simple as ‘saving democracy’. The grand machinations of geo-politics are so very complex. Who knew that the assassination of an obscure archduke would set off World War I? But the sol-diers who enlisted weren’t fighting to re-venge an assassination. They were fight for home, for country, for democracy.
For democracy. And as I looked at those faces yester-
day, I thought – they fought for this? For a non-elected Senate where fat-cats ap-
pointed through patronage can further bilk the Canadian taxpayer, in addition to the generous salary, benefits and pension they already receive? For the right of an out-of-control man with obvious addic-tion issues to continue to inflict his insane
denial on the people who elected him? To allow a great city — though it pains me to say it — to drift with-out leadership while the mayor simply refuses to face reality?
They fought for this? Oy.Democracy is not per-
fect. It is far from perfect. But it is always argued that at least it gives people a choice, a measure of control over those who rule. And it does. We can vote the bums out in the next election. Even Rob Ford, who as of last Friday, was still vow-ing to run next year, will have to face the voters. But not those appointed to the Senate. They will never face the voters, and that perhaps is what gives some of them the notion that they are above the law.
Most politicians are governed by the knowledge that their constituents will hold them accountable. Even those ap-pealing to just their base — as Mayor Ford is so obviously doing — need to appease that base on election day. And I think
— hope — that Ford’s base will give him a sound spanking next year when the may-oral elections are held in Toronto. If they don’t, you will be hearing from me again.
But in the Senate, there is no real ac-countability. We don’t elect them, there-fore they don’t owe us anything.
An elected Senate is the dream, but one of the reasons we have never gone there is the difficult process of deciding how many senators each province or ter-ritory would have. Rep by pop would give Ontario a huge numbers advantage in the upper chamber. On the other hand, is it fair for PEI to have as many senators as Ontario? So Senate reform is a thorny issue.
It was suggested to me the other day that we would have just as effective a Sen-ate — if not possibly more effective — if the process was simply open to lottery. Any Canadian could enter to win say a five-year term as a senator, complete with the big salary and perks. I think we’d have as good a chance of having quality people that way as through the current system, which has produced some not very quali-ty people.
At least it would be sort of democratic. Which is what our veterans fought for.

VICTORIA – News reports suggesting the B.C. government is considering disman-tling the Agricultural Land Commission are not accurate, the minis-ter in charge of the gov-ernment’s “core review” says.
A plan outlined in documents leaked to the <I>Globe and Mail</I> this week is “so secret that I don’t even know about it my-self,” Energy Minister Bill Bennett said in an interview. “We’re not even considering blow-ing up the ALC, or bringing it inside gov-ernment.”
Bennett said agricul-tural land commission-ers will continue to de-cide on applications to amend the land reserve, established 40 years ago to protect farmland from development.
Bennett refused to comment on the sug-gestion that the prov-ince could be divided into two zones with dif-ferent processes. But he said he is aware of many cases outside the south-western part of B.C. where obviously un-farmable land remains locked in the reserve.

A farmer prepares his field in Delta. Debate has continued for decades about the agricultural land reserve’s function outside B.C.’s main farming regions of the Okanagan and southwest, where devel-opment pressure is high.
has been a lack of fund-ing to the commission, Bennett said. The cur-rent budget adds $4 million to the commis-sion’s budget over three years.
“It’s not all their fault, it’s the way the legislation is written, it’s the way their policies have developed,” Ben-nett said. “All of those things add up to a lot of questionable decisions being made, and cer-tainly not in areas where they have good agricul-
tural land like Rich-mond and south Van-couver Island and the Fraser Valley and the Okanagan.”
Bennett also rejected the suggestion that the Oil and Gas Commis-sion would overrule the ALC on decisions in B.C.’s northeast. The OGC already has some authority on land use, and its role in the review is “tiny,” he said.
NDP leader Adrian Dix accused the govern-ment of hiding its inten-
tions before the May election.
“After commending two separate reviews that called for the ALC to be strengthened be-fore the election, the Liberals are now con-spiring to undermine it,” Dix said.
Metro Vancouver mayors, facing the most pressure to expand de-velopment, expressed alarm.
“Certainly it’s dis-turbing if they’re throw-ing it out the window,”
said Pitt Meadows Mayor Deb Walters.
She said some ALR boundaries need ad-justment, but beyond that, her main concerns are that the commission has been underfunded to do its job and that more effort is needed to help support the viabili-ty of farming.
“It has problems, but it has its place,” Maple Ridge Mayor Ernie Day-kin said of the ALR. “It protects us from our-selves.”
“Time does not catch up with you; it just hangs around until you barge into it again.”
Confusion.
Somehow I doubt that any of my aging readers cannot remember when there was virtually no tele-communication
going on between folk. Back then, when a person went on a holiday or away from home, communication with loved ones was by postcard, messages that invariably ar-rived at their destinations weeks after the writers had arrived home.
I can remember sending cards — despite the enor-mous cost and effort in-volved — to my parents when I travelled anywhere away from my usual haunts and recently I learned that my strange sister — aren’t they all? — had amassed a large number of them.
Apparently, Mum kept all the cards that her children sent to her and Dad, and so, after our mother’s demise, her faithful daughter took on the task. She showed them to me when I last visited her and her large family in Toronto. We spent a pleas-ant hour or so with them and a bottle of cheap wine.
My early travels were invariably towards mountainous country but one thing that struck me as I picked my way through those cards was that I have always been more interested in the people I met on my
travels than the places I visited, despite sensational scenery.
Another fact that I noticed was my abil-ity to squeeze far more than the average 50 words on the standard card. Interestingly enough, some European countries made a person pay more for extra words so that we experimented with the English language. Apparently, ‘havingagoodtime’ or ‘foodi-
sawful’ didn’t strike Ger-man or Swiss post masters as strange.
One of the earliest cards was written in Scotland on the back of a gorgeous pic-ture of the famous high point, Ben Nevis bathed in sunlight. Back then we
used to believe that all Scottish cards were photographed on the same day, the one when the sun emerged for a few hours.
Fort William, July 5th 1951. Drove past Loch Lomond yesterday. Didn’t see it. Didn’t see much of Glen Coe either. Wan-dered about on the top of Ben Nevis today and became lost. Came down the wrong side and had to hike for miles. Had haggis for dinner. Ugh! Johnnie tried beating it to death with a big stone. Probably haggis for breakfast ad nauseam.
Chamonix, France, July 5th 1952. Fell in love with a French girl today. Her name is Yvette and she is either eight or nine years old. I shall wait for her. Climbed our first glacier yesterday and bagged our first peak. At the Alpine Club lodge we discovered a
big man sitting on a table holding forth in French with an English accent. His audi-ence looked bored. They were mostly Ger-mans.
Calvi, Corsica, June, 1953. Climbed Monte Cinto and Monte D’Oro during last week. Encountered some friendly shep-herds, who spoke some sort of bastard Italian, but I used my bastard French on them and we managed linguistically. They asked us if we were worried about bandits but not to worry. The bandit chief had re-cently married the police chief’s daughter. Wonder what sort of language Napoleon spoke.
Bareges, Pyrennees, August 1954. Jean (my wife by then) and I arrived from Lourdes today. Horrible place full of reli-gious memorabilia. Everyone with hands out for money. French railways on strike so most of our party didn’t arrive but two women, one a head-mistress, rolled up on a Norton 500. Assume we’ll head off into the Pyrenees tomorrow. Going to be inter-esting camping.
Montreal, Canada, August 1955. Sailed serenely up the St Lawrence River today. Hurricane Diane almost a memory. Flat country, tiny houses (shacks?) huge churches. Who pays for them? Passengers that were sea-sick now getting in our way. We’re no longer ping-pong champs. Pam (my sister) and hubby met us here. Swel-tering hot. Think we’re already missing English summers.

After wrapping up a home stand, the Koote-nay Ice have hit the road for their first major trip of the season.
The Ice played out their last few games in their home barn over the weekend against the Red Deer Rebels and the Spokane Chiefs, be-fore facing Hitmen in Calgary on Monday.
Afterwards, they’ll challenge the Swift Cur-rent Brocos, the Prince Albert Raiders and the Saskatoon Blades over the next six days.
After a lacklustre performance against Brent Sutter’s squad, which ended at a 3-0 loss, Kootenay respond-ed with a 3-2 victory over the Chiefs and a 5-1 win over the Hitmen.
The wins have put Kootenay into fifth place in the Eastern Confer-ence, tied at 24 points with the Hitmen in front and the Raiders behind.
Wyatt Hoflin stepped up to take over starting duties, with Skapski re-covering from a low-er-body injury. Koote-nay prospect Jayden Sit-tler has been recalled from the Red Deer Opti-
mist Chiefs in the AMHL, and will join the team for just under two weeks.
Hoflin backstopped the team over all three games, earning the vic-tories against the Chiefs and Hitmen.
“The guys are step-ping up around him, but he’s had to make some saves and he’s done a good job, he looks confi-dent and everyday he’s in the net, he looks more confident,” said McGill, following the win over Calgary.
Ice captain Sam Re-inhart noted the same thing following the vic-tory over the Chiefs.
“He’s stepped up huge for us in the last couple games.”
Kootenay also con-tinues to miss the ser-vices of defenceman Tanner Faith and Zach McPhee, both of whom are out of the lineup with undisclosed up-per-body injures.
Red Deer played a physical game and shut down the Ice on Friday evening. Cole Chourney scored in the first period for an early lead, which was padded by Rhyse Dieno and Connor Bleackley in the third
frame.Patrik Bartosak made
19 saves for the shutout, while Holfin turned away 25 shots in defeat.
“I don’t think we were mentally ready, as a team, to start,” said Ice for ward Ryan Chynoweth. “We came out a little sloppy and had moments through-out the game where we put it on, but couldn’t figure it out for a full 60 minutes, and I think it cost us tonight.”
It was school spirit night, as schools from around the local district came out to cheer on the Ice. It was the largest home crowd of the year at 2,908.
Though Mitch Holm-berg got a few points the following night, Koote-nay did a pretty good job of shutting down the WHL’s leading scorer on
Saturday in a 3-2 win over the Chiefs.
Not only did Koote-nay pick up the win, but they did it without lead-ing goal-scorer Jaedon Descheneau, who sat out as a healthy scratch.
Kootenay was re-warded with a solid first-period effort late in the frame, when Luke Philp scored with a slap shot nine seconds into an Ice powerplay.
Holmberg tied it up in the middle frame, rip-ping a high wrist shot into the corner—mak-ing it his 50th point and the first player in the CHL to reach that mark.
However, Levi Cable broke the deadlock five minutes later, tipping a point shot from Landon Peel past Chiefs goal-tender Eric Williams.
Hoflin stood tall on a shorthanded break-away, robbing Holm-berg. The play immedi-ately transitioned back up the ice, and Austin Vetterl sniped the twine while entering Spokane territory.
Riding a 3-1 lead going into the the third period, Holmberg and Mike Aviani combined again; Aviani’s body re-directing a shot from
Holmberg that beat Holfin on the power-play.
That would seal it up for the scoring, as Koo-tenay defeated their first U.S. Division opponent, after losing to the Tri-City Americans, Port-land Winterhawks and Seattle Thunderbirds earlier in the schedule.
“Consistency has been a big focus of our game this year, we’ve definitely struggled with that,” said Reinhart. “With that being said, there’s definitely some character involved with us—I don’t think we’ve lost two in a row since the first weekend.
“We definitely got to get better at being con-sistent night in and night out, but after a game last night [Red Deer], to bounce back like this against a good team like Spokane who have a lot of offence, it shows a lot of character in our guys.”
Descheneau reap-peared back in the line-up on Monday after-noon in Calgary and led the team to a 5-1 victory, adding two more goals to his 2013-14 resume.

B.C. loses control, Roughriders complete
a 29-25 comeback JENNIFER GR AHAM
Canadian Press
REGINA - For the first three quarters of the CFL West Division semifinal, quarterback Travis Lulay appeared on the verge of leading the B.C. Lions to victory.
But the fourth quar-ter belonged to the Sas-katchewan Roughriders and quarterback Darian Durant.
“In the fourth quar-ter, there were two drives that ended just out of field goal range and that ultimately that was the difference,” said Lulay after the Lions fell 29-25 Sunday.
“That’s tough, but that’s playoff football. It’s never going to be easy, you know. It’s al-ways going to be a game of just a handful of plays here or there. And un-fortunately for us, their offence made the plays late that our offence couldn’t.”
It was the first time Lulay had faced the Rid-ers this season because he was out with a shoul-der injury.
Saskatchewan was on the scoreboard first with a field goal in the first quarter, but the Lions roared back with a touchdown.
B.C. held the lead until late into the fourth quarter, controlling the
tempo of the game.But a field goal with
4:57 left put the Roughriders on top, 26-25. Another field goal with 28 seconds left clinched the Riders’ win.
There was stunned silence and players were hanging their heads in the B.C. locker-room after the game.
“Things felt in con-trol and it just kind of slipped away in the very end and it’s not some-thing that you know, we were slacking off be-cause we had control. It just happened to be that they made plays and we didn’t,” said B.C. line-backer Adam Bighill, who was playing middle linebacker in place of the injured Solomon Elimimian.
“It’s really tough to swallow. I mean it’s a playoff game, we’re done ... we’re not ready to be done,” he added.
When asked if there was anything that B.C. could have done differ-ently, Bighill said: “Stop Darian Durant from running the ball.”
At halftime, B.C. had rushed for 162 yards, while holding the Riders to just 35 yards. The Lions had more total rushing yards in the game, 213 yards to Sas-katchewan’s 170 yards.
Ticats beat Montreal in OT, head into CFL East � nals
DAN R ALPHCanadian Press
GUELPH, Ont. - With the Hamilton Tiger-Cats’ season hanging in the balance, rookie quarter-back Dan LeFevour de-livered.
LeFevour’s two-yard TD run in overtime ral-lied Hamilton to a thrill-ing 19-16 win over the Montreal Alouettes in the East Division semifi-nal Sunday.
The six-foot-three, 230-pound LeFevour handled the ball on six of Hamilton’s eight snaps in overtime after Mon-treal went ahead 16-13 on Sean Whyte’s 34-yard field goal. All were runs - including two success-ful third-down gambles - and an 11-yard scam-per that took the Ticats
to the Alouettes’ two-yard line to set up LeFe-vour’s game-winning TD.
LeFevour’s touch-down secured Hamil-ton’s first home playoff win since ‘01 and prompted teammates to hoist him on to their shoulders, something the former Central Michigan star was un-comfortable with.
“I was telling them to put me down actually,” the humble LeFevour said. “This is a team game, shoot, the defence carried us all the way into the fourth quarter. Hank had a great drive going into the wind.
“I really feel I was a small piece . . . everyone put in their two cents today.”

Jack Newman of the Avalanche goes for a kill against the Capilano University Blues during a match on Saturday at the College of Rockies.
Avs feeling the blues after facing CapilanoTre vor Cr awley
Sports Editor
Both Avalanche teams put up a good fight, but in the end, the Capilano University Blues proved to be too tough to han-dle.
The men put up a good bat-tle against the reigning Pacwest champions, forcing a five-set match on Friday night, but fell short in the tiebreak.
The Blues regrouped for a Saturday rematch, dispatching the Avalanche by a set score of 3-1.
The women struggled in the opening match, dropping a 3-0 set score decision. The rematch on Saturday featured
closer set scores, and the la-dies were very close to stealing a few sets, but the Blues pre-vailed.
On Friday, after dropping the first two sets 17-25, 22-25), the men roared back to win the next two (25-19, 25-20) and force the tiebreak. Howev-er, the Blues were able to pull ahead and take the tiebreak at 15-8.
On Saturday, the men trad-
ed sets at 22-25 and 25-22. However, the Blues came on after that and capture the next two at 13-25, 20-25 for the win.
“We had lulls—moments of brilliance and lulls—and that’s what cost us,” said Avs setter Nick Schmidt. “They have a couple good servers on those teams and we have to elimi-nate those runs and we didn’t.
“It’s tough. That’s what lost us those sets and those match-
es.”Schmidt says the Blues
fielded a good server who al-lowed Capilan to go on a few runs but added that his Avs put up a good fight.
“Yesterday [Friday], we had a lot of energy,” Schmidt said. “I actually feel our focus was better today [Saturday] in those first two sets, we came out stronger, as opposed to yesterday.
“Yesterday was just a tough loss. We went in knowing they were a good team. We had a game plan, we executed the game plan for the most part, but some things don’t go your way sometimes.”

The Kimberley Dy-namiters got some re-venge against the Griz-zlies, but split their weekend KIJHL action with a loss to Kamloops Storm.
The Nitros also did it with with only one of their two-goaltender tandem, as Mousseau guarded the crease while Tyson Brouwer helped out the Koote-nay Ice in Cranbrook, backing up Wyatt Hof-lin.
Kimberley scored four power play goals, while Jared Marchi and Eric Buckley posted hat tricks to lead the Dyna-miters 7-3 over the
Grizzlies. Bryce Per-pelitz and Andrew Stack also had four-point nights by collect-ing a pile of assists.
Special teams ruled the first two periods of the game, as the Nitros got two powerplay goals from Marchi and Buckley, while Marchi added a shorthanded marker. Revelstoke re-sponded in between the Dynamiters scoring with a powerplay goal from Matt MacDonald.
Kimberley’s power play stayed hot in the middle frame, as Buck-ley and Marchi both added goals for a 5-1 lead going into the third period.
Buckley completed
his hat trick in the third period at even strength, before Revestoke an-swered with a pair from Monty Chisholm and Brodie Buhler, who got his with the man-ad-vantage.
Brandon Bogdanek capped off the scoring with a single marker late in the game to seal up the win at 7-3.
Mousseau earned the win by making 18 saves, while Aaron Brandoli took the loss for the Grizzlies with 23 stops.
It was a busy night for the officials, which handed out 10 power-plays for both teams. Kimberley drew blood on four of them, while
Revelstoke capitalized on two.
Leading after two periods the following night on Saturday, Ka-mloops kicked up a storm in the third frame to score three unan-swered goals for the win.
Buckley and Marchi combined for a pair of goals in the opening frame, while both teams went scoreless in the middle period.
Spencer Schoech and Austin Braid scored within five minutes to tie up the affair, but Bobby Kashuba broke the deadlock to earn the win late in the game.
Both teams were
scoreless with the man-advantage; Kam-loops denied on six chances, while Kimber-ley was unable to capi-talize on three opportu-nities.
Mousseau faced a shooting gallery, turn-ing away 40 shots, while Kimberley put 22 pucks on Wade Moyls, who picked up the win for Kamloops.
Kimberley’s win pulls them ahead of the Fernie Ghostriders into second place in the Eddie Mountain Divi-sion. The Thunder Cats are three points ahead and lead the division, while the Nelson Leafs is the overall KIJHL leader.

Tim Bozon opened the scoring on a pretty passing play with De-scheneau, which stands as his first marker in a Kootenay Ice uniform since joining the team eight games ago. Calder Brooks responded for the Hitmen by the end of the period for a 1-1 tie after 20 minutes.
The game opened up in the second period, and for another first, Rinat Valiev scored his first career WHL goal, sniping as he patiently skated into Calgary ter-
ritory.Martin found the
back of the net at even-strength and Deschene-au potted a power play goal for a 4-1 lead at the end of the frame. The Kootenay Ice trigger-man added another goal with the man-ad-vantage in the third pe-riod for a 5-1 final.
“A very solid effort from start to finish,” said McGill. “Really good special teams and Wyatt Hoflin made the saves when he had to make them.”

Niedermayer inducted into Hall of Fame
C anadian Press
TORONTO - This is a different kind of ac-complishment for Scott Niedermayer.
As a player, he won everything, from youth provincial titles to four Stanley Cups and two Olympic gold medals. On Monday was in-ducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame with his plaque reading: “The epitome of a champi-on.”
“When you’re com-peting, you’re actually in control of what’s going on,” Niedermayer said. “This is sort of a phone call and I hadn’t played hockey in three years and they give you this great honour. It feels different. It sort of sums it up, I guess, the work that you’ve done and the things you’ve accomplished as a play-er.”
Niedermayer is in good company. The class of 2013 is the first since 2009 in which every member with NHL connections has his name on the Stanley Cup. Chris Chelios and Brendan Shanahan each won it three times as players, while Fred Shero won it twice as a coach. Geraldine He-aney won an Olympic gold medal and seven world championship ti-tles with Canada.
“If you’re going into the Hall of Fame, you’re a winner, obviously, and that’s why you’re going in,” said Heaney, who is the third woman to be inducted after Cammi Granato and Angela James. “It’s such a great group of guys to be going in with. Those are the guys I watched on TV and was like, ‘Oh, wow,’ and never thought that one day I’d be sitting beside them getting in to the Hockey Hall of Fame.”
Three defencemen, a power winger and an innovative coach are going into the Hall of Fame, but more than anything this group has winning in common. In addition to the Cups, each of the players won gold internationally - Niedermayer, Shanah-an and Heaney for Can-ada and Chelios for the United States.
“Each one of these guys has performed at a good enough level that they could represent their country overseas among the best,” selec-tion committee chair-man Pat Quinn said. “This particular group is probably special. ... The Stanley Cup is still the key one for the se-lection committee, but now you do consider these other awards and championships.”
Can it really be as easy as that? Get Rwanda to stop
supporting the rebels in eastern Congo, pay the soldiers of the Congolese army on time, send in a United Nations force that actually has orders to shoot, and presto! The bad guys surrender or flee, and a war that has lasted almost twenty years and killed up to five million Congolese is suddenly over.
At least that’s the way it is playing in the media (to the extent that news about the Congo plays in the media at all), and there certainly has been a sudden change for the better.
Less than a year ago the latest and one of the nastiest rebel militias, M23, actually occupied Goma, a city of one mil-lion people that is effec-tively the capital of east-ern Congo. UN troops watched helplessly from the sidelines and the Congolese govern-ment’s army got drunk
and took revenge on civilians for its defeat, while M23 officers swaggered through the city taking whatever they wanted.
It was so humiliat-ing, so stupid and wrong, that Joseph Kabila, the president of the Democratic Repub-lic of Congo (DRC), to give it its proper name, stripped dozens of offi-cers in eastern Congo of their commands and called them back to Kin-shasa. Their replace-ments had at least a ru-dimentary grasp of their trade – and they have not yet been in the east long enough to develop lucrative deals with the local mining interests and the militias that feed on them.
Meanwhile the “in-ternational community” (aka the United States and its friends) put heavy pressure on Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame to stop sup-porting M23. Recently the US even blocked
military aid to the small but heavily armed re-public, just across Lake Kivu from Goma, that has been meddling in the DRC’s affairs, some-times even invading the east, for the past two de-cades. It worked: Kag-ame stopped answering the phone when M23 called.
And the United Na-tions, whose 13,000 peace-keeping troops in the eastern Congo had been of no use against M23 because they had no mandate to fight, was so embarrassed that it changed the rules. A new “intervention bri-gade” made up of 3,000 South African, Tanzani-an and Malawian troops was sent, with tanks, he-licopters, drones, and full permission to use its
weapons against the rebels.
Finally, M23 helped by breaking up into rival factions that fought one another. The former com-mander, Bosco Nta-ganda, known as “the
Terminator”, lost the struggle, and to save his life he fled to the US em-bassy in Rwanda and asked to be turned over to the International Criminal Court to face trial in The Hague on war crimes charges. His successors were just as cruel and corrupt, but less competent.
The offensive against M23 started two weeks ago, with the DRC troops doing the fight-ing and the UN “inter-
vention brigade” in sup-port. Apart from firing a few mortar rounds on the last day, the UN troops were not even committed to combat. On 5 November the M23 forces lost their last hill-tops and surrendered or fled across the border into Uganda or Rwanda, and the war was over. Maybe.
It is a huge step for-ward, but the peace will only last if two things happen. One is that the DRC now turns its atten-tion to the biggest re-maining militia in the east, the Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda.
The FDLR is a Hutu militia, run by the rem-nants of the Hutu re-
gime that carried out the genocide against Tutsis and Hutu moder-ates in Rwanda in 1994. Like most of the eastern Congolese militias, the FDLR makes its living by looting the local popula-tion and running pro-tection rackets against the rich mining opera-tions in the area, but its ultimate aim is to regain power in Rwanda.
It was the presence of this force just across the border in eastern Congo that caused Rwanda to intervene in its giant neighbour in the first place. M23 was just the last of a series of Tutsi militias that Rwanda created to contain the FDLR, and if it is not destroyed the Rwandan
meddling (and the war) will resume.
The other condition for a lasting peace is that the DRC’s own troops in the east of the country do not fall back into their bad old ways. There is big money to be made if they collaborate with the various militias in shaking down the mining operations, and it remains to be seen if the soldiers (and mem-bers of Kabila’s own government) can resist the temptation to profit from deals of this sort.
So it isn’t really over yet, but it’s a good start. After a generation of carnage, the people of the eastern Congo de-serve a better future.
After 20 years of war, a good start in the Congo
A l l i s o n J o n e sCanadian Press
TORONTO — Embattled To-ronto Mayor Rob Ford couldn’t escape controversy at a Remem-brance Day ceremony Monday, where a veteran refused to shake his hand.
Ford gave a short speech hon-ouring the military and there was a quiet smattering of boos and cries of “shame’’ in the crowd as he walked up to the podium, though there was also light applause.
After he laid a wreath at the foot of the cenotaph at Toronto’s Old City, the mayor walked past a row of veterans and at least one refused a hand shake.
Tony Smith, who was sta-tioned in Germany after the Sec-ond World War, said after the ceremony that Ford should not have been there, given his ad-mission last week that he had smoked crack cocaine.
“I didn’t shake his hand be-cause he’s a drug addict, a drug-gie,’’ Smith said. “He’s No. 1 man in the city and he’s smoking up and boozing it up. I don’t mind people having a drink. I certainly don’t agree with drugs.’’
Ford reversed five months of denials last week when he ad-mitted he had smoked crack co-caine, likely in one of his “drunk-en stupors.’’ The Toronto Star and U.S. website Gawker report-ed in May on the existence of a video appearing to show him smoking the drug and Toronto’s police chief recently announced that investigators have seized it.
Ford has repeatedly denied he is an addict.
At the Remembrance Day ceremony, hundreds of people braved the rain and Ford shared an umbrella with federal Trans-port Minister Lisa Raitt. Seated
next to her was NDP Leader Tom Mulcair, who has called on Ford to resign and get help.
After Ford laid a City of To-ronto wreath, Smith said a fellow veteran seated next to him also refused to shake the mayor’s hand. However, at least two other vets could be seen shaking Ford’s hand.
Some veterans did not want to speak about the Ford contro-versy.
As soon as the Remembrance Day ceremony ended, Ford walked back to city hall, flanked by staffers, his new driver and a city hall security guard, and did not answer reporters’ questions.
The mayor’s previous week involved shocking confessions of drug use, drunken stupors, a new video showing erratic be-haviour and pleas from both friends and foes to step aside to get help.
This week could see even more twists and turns.
The so-called crack video will be in a Toronto courthouse Tues-day as a judge considers an ap-plication from lawyers for a man seen in a notorious photo with the mayor.
Ford is seen posing in the photo with Anthony Smith, who was later shot and killed, as well as Mohammad Khattak and an-other man, who have both been charged as alleged gang mem-bers in Project Traveller, a sweeping drugs and weapons investigation.
Lawyers for Khattak were in court Friday seeking access to the video, arguing their client’s reputation is being harmed by being associated with it.
Nordheimer is also expected to rule this week, as early as Tuesday, whether remaining parts of a document that shed light on Ford’s relationship with Alexander Lisi, an alleged drug dealer who is also his friend, can be released.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) A personal matter or a situation involving your home will turn out positively. You could have a lot of discussion with your mate or a key person about a potential change. Know that this person might surprise you with his or her compliant attitude. Tonight: What is stopping you? TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You finally will achieve what you want, and you might feel as if you have the capability to have a long-overdue conversation. Your sense of humor weaves through various situations, which adds lightness to them. You are likely to achieve what you want. To-night: Dream big. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Assume a more dominant role in a professional discussion. You might want to do something very differently from how you have been doing it, but you will abide by a superior’s decision. Take a leap of faith, and you will emerge on the right side. Tonight: Till the wee hours.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Detach from recent events and see a situation from a different perspective. You might want to reframe the situation in several different ways. Know that you are carrying a figurative rabbit’s foot in your back pocket. Remain optimistic. Tonight: Be around great music. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A partner or an associate wants to assume the lead. Make it possible. You might want more time to yourself, as you have a personal matter on the back burner. Use your intuition, and it will land you on the right side of a problem. Tonight: Go off and do something for yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) By integrating a suggestion from a partner, you will come out a victor. You seem know which path is best for you. Make an effort to draw in a new per-son whom you are getting to know. He or she would be good for you. Tonight: Sort through others’ ideas, then decide. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You have an abundance of to-
dos. Do your best to prevent someone from interfering with your pace. You might feel as if no one can stop you. Your energy surprises many people. A boss is more than happy with the results of this trait. Tonight: Slow down only when you want to. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might respond on a totally intuitive level and feel as if you know what it is the right path for you. Logic might not conform to your actions, and trying to make your actions logical sim-ply might not work. Stop trying this exercise. Tonight: Continue being spontaneous. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You could opt to stay home; work at home, if you must. If at work, your mind might keep focusing on a personal situa-tion. A newfound closeness has started to evolve between you and someone else. Make it OK to vanish early in the day. Tonight: Screen your calls. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) While people around you might be emotional and undisciplined, you seem to handle their pas-
sionate displays and continue as normal. Your ability to stay steadfast might prevent you from picking up on import-ant information. Listen well. Tonight: Hang out with your friends. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might be focused on com-pleting an important task that has financial ramifications. You could be doing a lot of thinking about your budget. Your financ-es might need a hard, skeptical look. Sometimes self-discipline is lacking, even for you. Tonight: Off to the gym to work out. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You will draw someone toward you who serves as a muse for you. When you are with this per-son, your natural talents seem to expand. If you are single, a budding romance becomes a strong possibility. Tonight: Be spontaneous. BORN TODAY Singer/songwriter Neil Young (1945), baseball player Sammy Sosa (1968), actress Grace Kelly (1929) ***
Dear Annie: I have been married for 32 years to a horrible man. He is self-centered, controlling, a liar and a cheat. He manipu-lated me into buying a house I did not want, and when my mother died in this house, he kicked me out of the room we shared and made me move into the same room she died in. He lied to me about not getting paid for a year, while pocketing $40,000 and spending it on an affair with our best friend’s daughter. He then closed our checking account. Two years later, he bullied me into buying a business, where I worked for four years with-out pay. He occasionally paid me a little, but then kicked me out of the business and told me to get a “real job.” Annie, he tore my car apart so I couldn’t drive it, and he keeps me broke all of the time. He went behind my back and put the business and home accounts in his name only. I have walked everywhere within three miles of our house looking for work, with no luck. I have no friends because he can’t keep his hands off of them, and I’m tired of making excuses for him. If I bring it up, he calls me a liar. When I finally told him I wanted a di-vorce, he said he’ll keep the house and the business and there is no money to give me a share. For the past year, I’ve been trying to find a lawyer who will take my case for very little money and haven’t found one. I’m stuck here and losing all hope of ever getting out. His lies and false accusations have made our kids mistrust me. I am emo-tionally, mentally and spiritually exhausted. I cry daily and wish it could all be over. Don’t suggest counseling, because I have no mon-ey for that and can’t get there unless it’s close enough to walk. -- Miserable Forever Dear Miserable: This is an abusive mar-riage -- emotionally and financially. You don’t need to find a counselor within walk-ing distance. Pick up the phone, or go online and contact the Domestic Violence Abuse Hotline at 1-800-787-3224 (thehotline.org). They will help you get out of this mess of a marriage and find a fresh start. Please don’t wait. Dear Annie: I work at a library in my home-town. An 80-year-old woman who uses the computer is always messing it up. She’s there 10 hours a week and does a lot of dam-age, but no one wants to hurt her feelings by telling her she’s screwing up. This woman is also forgetful and some-times rude. When someone offers help, she claims she doesn’t need it. When she asks for assistance, she gets irritated and says, “That’s what I was doing!” She’s making things hard for everybody, but my boss is a pushover and won’t get involved. Can we do anything? -- Frustrated in Indiana Dear Indiana: We’re not sure how she’s “messing up” the computer in such a way that it’s a major effort to put things right. Can you post a sign next to the computer with simple instructions for operation? Would the boss be willing to require a “training course” for all computer users so that she isn’t sin-gled out? Does no one have the patience to work with her in spite of her snappish atti-tude? The computer confuses her, and she doesn’t want to admit her weaknesses. Be kind. Dear Annie: Tell “Champ’s Mom” that many states have passed legislation or are considering doing so to teach cursive writ-ing in school. Students who have not been taught cursive can neither read it nor write it. Parents are just beginning to realize that their children don’t have the skills to read their grandparents’ notes. Children want to learn cursive. Please give them the opportu-nity. -- Long Live Cursive Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

John Nolan Himel 1969 - 2013
John Himel, loving husband, son and stepfather passed away suddenly on November 6th, 2013 at the age of 43.
John was born in Taber Alberta on December 7, 1969 to Mae and Eric Himel. He will be unbelievably missed by

Seth BorenSteinAssociated Press
WASHINGTON — Nature and man togeth-er cooked up the disaster in the Philippines.
Geography, meteo-rology, poverty, shoddy construction, a booming population, and, to a much lesser degree, cli-mate change combine to make the Philippines the nation most vulnerable to killer typhoons, ac-cording to several scien-tific studies.
And Typhoon Haiyan was one mighty storm.
Haiyan slammed the island nation with a storm surge two stories high and some of the highest winds ever mea-sured in a tropical cy-clone — 195 mph (314 kph) as clocked by U.S. satellites, or 147 mph (237 kph) based on local reports. An untold num-ber of homes were blown away, and thousands of people are feared dead.
“You have a very in-tense event hitting a very susceptible part of the world. It’s that combina-tion of nature and man,’’ said MIT tropical meteo-rology professor Kerry Emanuel. “If one of those ingredients were missing, you wouldn’t have a disaster.’’
The 7,000 islands of the Philippines sit in the middle of the world’s most storm-prone re-gion, which gets some of the biggest typhoons be-cause of vast expanses of warm water that act as fuel and few pieces of land to slow storms down.
Half the storms on an informal list of the stron-gest ones to hit land in the 20th and 21st centu-ries ended up striking
the Philippines, accord-ing to research by Jeff Masters, meteorology director of the Weather Underground.
Storms often hit after they’ve peaked in strength or before they get a chance to, but Hai-yan struck when it was at its most powerful, based on U.S. satellite observa-tions, Emanuel said.
Humans played a big role in this disaster, too — probably bigger than
nature’s, meteorologists said. University of Miami hurricane researcher Brian McNoldy figures that 75 to 80 per cent of the devastation can be blamed on the human factor.
Meteorologists point to extreme poverty and huge growth in popula-tion — much of it in vul-nerable coastal areas with poor construction, including storm shelters that didn’t hold up
against Haiyan.More than 4 out of 10
Filipinos live in a storm-prone vulnerable city of more than 100,000, ac-cording to a 2012 World Bank study. The Hai-yan-devastated provin-cial capital of Tacloban City nearly tripled from about 76,000 to 221,000 in just 40 years.
About one-third of Tacloban City’s homes have wooden exterior walls. And 1 in 7 homes
have grass roofs, accord-ing to the census office.
Those factors — es-pecially flimsy construc-tion — were so import-ant that a weaker storm would have still caused almost as much devasta-tion, McNoldy said.
“You end up with these kind of urban time bombs, where cities have doubled, tripled, quadrupled in size in 50 years’’ without good building standards, said
Richard Olson, director of the Extreme Events In-stitute at Florida Interna-tional University. “It is, I hate to say, an all-too-fa-miliar pattern.’’
Scientists say man-made global warming has contributed to rising seas and a general in-crease in strength in the most powerful tropical cyclones. But they won’t specifically apply these factors to Haiyan, saying it is impossible to attri-bute single weather events, like the typhoon, to climate change.
A 2008 study found that in the northwestern Pacific where Haiyan formed, the top 1 per cent of the strongest tropical cyclones over the past 30 years are get-ting on average about 1 mph stronger each year — a phenomenon some scientists suspect is a consequence of global warming.
“The strongest storms are getting stronger’’ said study co-author James Kossin of the National Climatic Data Center. Haiyan “is what poten-tially could be a good ex-ample of the kind of the things we’re finding.’’
Similarly, the Philip-pines has seen its sea rise nearly half an inch in the past 20 years — about triple the global increase, according to R. Steven Nerem of the University of Colorado. Higher sea levels can add to storm surge, creating slightly greater flooding.
Just as human factors can worsen a disaster, they can also lessen it, through stronger build-ings, better warnings and a quicker govern-ment response.
Emanuel said pover-ty-stricken Bangladesh had much bigger losses of life from cyclones in the 1970s than it does now. The international community built strong evacuation shelters that get used frequently, he said.
“The Philippines is one of the most disas-ter-prone places on Earth,’’ said Kathleen Tierney, director of the Natural Hazards Center at the University of Col-orado. “They’ve got it all. They’ve got earth-quakes, volcanoes, floods, tropical cy-clones, landslides.’’
Geography, poverty, construction, population, warming all factor into making typhoon so bad
What made Typhoon Haiyan so deadly?

High waves pound the sea wall as strong winds from Typhoon Haiyan hit the city of Legaspi, Albay province, south of Manila.
