In a 4-3 decision, Council turns down
car wash
C AROLYN GR ANTBulletin Editor
After considerable discus-sion, a public hearing and staff reports, Kimberley City Council has decided that they will not proceed with a zon-ing change to allow a car wash to be built on Marsden Street.
The lot in question is just to the north west side of the Marsden Street bridge, across the creek and a small road from the Baptist Church. While the lot is already zoned commercial, a car wash was not allowed under the cur-rent zoning, so the proponent applied for a change.
Council has decided that a car wash is not appropriate in the mostly residential neigh-bourhood, though not with-out a lot of discussion.
Council was presented
with a staff report from the planning department offer-ing three options. 1; refuse to proceed with the bylaw, 2; defer pending submission of further information or 3; ap-prove it. The report recom-mended that Council give second and third readings and adoption to the zoning change.
However, Council was not prepared to do so. Coun. Al-bert Hoglund led off by saying he would vote against the re-zoning. He said he was disap-
pointed in the staff report be-cause it failed to mention a petition that had been brought forward by residents.
“In my mind, enough resi-dents of that area showed they didn’t want the lot re-zoned,” he said.
Coun. Darryl Oakley also said he wouldn’t support it. He said he had been down to the neighbourhood several times and felt that the neigh-bours were comfortable with the current commercial zon-ing.
Coun. Jack Ratcliffe said he would support it.
“There have been so many cases in the past where what was forecast to happen didn’t happen,” he said, pointing out that years ago when the Bau-ernhaus Restaurant was seek-ing a development permit neighbourhood residents had been greatly concerned.
“People were against it,” he said. “If we’d gone with that, the Bauernhaus wouldn’t be there. Then there was a daycare on St. Mary
Avenue that the neighbours didn’t want. Again, we went ahead and it worked fine. The neighbours later came back to Council and apologized for causing a fuss. That’s the only time I’ve seen that in my 29 years on Council.”
Coun. Don McCormick also said he’d support it. He said he felt there were enough regulations in place that would make sure the car wash was not a detriment.

Cranbrook and Kimber-ley were treated to a spec-tacular sky show overnight between Monday, April 14 and Tuesday, April 15 when a “blood moon” graced the spring sky.
The moon turned red for about one hour and 18 min-utes during the full lunar eclipse, when the moon, Earth and sun were com-pletely lined up. The reflec-tion of the sun on Earth cast a red-orange glow on the moon as it was shielded from the sun’s direct light.

A lunar eclipse turned the moon red in the early morning hours of Tuesday, April 15. A telescope at the College of the Rockies captured the eclipse in pictures as it progressed from midnight until 3:50 a.m. Top left and then clockwise: The earth’s shadow crosses and eclipses the moon, causing it to turn red.

A lunar eclipse turned the full moon red for just over an hour overnight on the morning of Tuesday, April 15
Rick Nowell, an astrono-mer at the College of the Rockies in Cranbrook, cap-tured the eclipse using the college’s telescope, the Ce-lestron Schmidt-Cassegrain, with an 11-inch primary mirror.
“It’s meant for higher magnifications, so I had to attach a focal reducer to just barely fit all the moon in the
picture,” said Nowell.In Cranbrook, the eclipse
began at about 11 p.m. when the full moon was still visible to the south. Mars was closest to Earth on Monday also, so it was very bright in the sky nearby, Nowell said.
“The moon moved slowly easterly in the sky, and en-tered the Earth’s shadow at
midnight. The black part of the shadow cut a curved line into the moon’s edge and gradually crept along for an hour, until the last bright edge narrowed and went dark at 1 a.m.,” said Nowell.
“Unfortunately, a thin haze to the south started to cover the moon, and a lot of the photos became fuzzy after this. The dim orangey
moon faded in and out be-hind clouds, but the camera was able to compensate somewhat.”
While Earth was com-pletely obscuring the sun, the sunlight passing through the Earth’s atmosphere made the moon glow a reddish or-ange, Nowell went on.
“It took about three hours for the moon to move
through the Earth’s shad-ow. In the photos you can see that the moon was not evenly illuminated, since its orbit was a bit north of (above) the shadow cone.”
The moon came out of the shadows at about 2:30 a.m., Nowell said, and it was back to a normal full moon at about 3:50 a.m.
“If you missed this one, the next lunar eclipse is on October 8, 2014,” he added.
“This year we get to see a solar eclipse too: There will be a partial solar eclipse in Cranbrook on October 23 at 3:45 p.m.”

C a r t e r G u l s e t hListen, people. There are worse
things you could do than enter “The 607.”
Oh, you don’t know what it is? Well, it’s quite simple, really. It’s a film festival for students, more spe-cifically, students from Grades 7 to 12. The point is: if you can pick up a camera, you ought to enter.
I mean, there’s incentive, right? It’s a festival, and where there’s a festival to be entered, there are prizes to be won: fabulous prizes of jewels, and Mercedes Benzes! Okay, maybe not, but certainly prizes of money.
Perhaps I’m not being clear enough. Mount Baker Wild Theatre is putting on a film festival. Every-one else is doing it, so they thought they might get in on the action.
The festival is a regional one, which means that the films are going to be flooding in from all over the Kootenays. The festival is enter-able by students from Grades 7 to 12, and entries will be accepted until May 14.
You’re asking yourself what the catch is, right? What kinds of guide-lines come with the fabulous chance to make a movie on your own dime? Well, a film festival wouldn’t be any good without a rule, so here it is: no shorter than one minute, no longer than 20 min-utes. That’s it. That’s all, honestly.
Of course you’ve got to adhere to copyright rules (we don’t want your version of Ben Hur in 20 minutes) but that’s all fine print.
Now, I’m sure you can recall that
earlier I had mentioned fabulous prizes. So here’s the deal with those: if you’re any good, you might win something. The way the festival works is this:
You submit a film by May 14; that is step one.
Step two is that your film is re-viewed by a panel of semi-experi-enced, semi-competent judges, who will criticize your work as a group. When all of the films have been reviewed, the part you’re ex-cited about — the money — comes into play.
Winners will be chosen based on merit, skill, and close personal rela-tions with the adjudicators. The prizes of money are exciting, don’t you worry. The grand prize is $1,000, with a first runner-up of $500, and a second runner-up of $250. Exciting, right? Finally, at the end of the whole thing, prizes will be awarded to the most deserving and ingratiating films at the Key City Theatre in what is sure to be a gala bash.
Yes, that’s right, a gala bash. On June 11, at the Key, the 607 is put-ting on a screening of its winning films. There will be movies shown, awards handed out, and a meeting of young aspiring filmmakers. Okay, maybe it’ll just be a whole bunch of kids who want to get their hands on prize money, but that’s beside the point. The screening will be open to the public for the low price of $5, and we would like to encourage the general population to get dressed in their best, and come out for an evening of fun.
The fantastic 607: Get those cameras rolling

As 900 Canadians have had their social insur-
ance numbers stolen, the Better Business Bureau is providing guidelines on
how to protect the personal information you
send online
Sally MacDonalDTownsman Staff
The Canada Revenue Agency is this week notifying 900 taxpayers who it believes had their social insur-ance numbers stolen as a result of the Heart-bleed bug that has affected hun-dreds of promi-nent websites.
The tax agency shut down public ac-cess to its online ser-vices on Tuesday, April 8 after it discov-ered that the Heart-bleed encryption vulnera-bility had affected people using the CRA’s website.
The social insurance numbers were stolen over a six-hour period by someone exploiting the vulnerability in many supposedly se-cure websites that used an open-source encryption system.
The agency is sending registered letters to those taxpayers who are af-
fected, rather than emailing because it doesn’t want fraudsters to use phishing schemes to further exploit the privacy breach.
The CRA website was brought back online on Sunday, April 13 after the CRA patched and re-launched its online services, including the E-file and Netfile online income tax por-tals.
People who were not able to file their income tax last week because of the website shutdown have been given an extra week to make the tax deadline. CRA has extended the filing deadline to May 5, 2014 before penal-ties apply.
The Heartbleed bug – which had made websites vulnerable for up to
two years before it was discovered
last week – gave hackers access to passwords, credit card numbers and
other informa-tion at many
websites. Websites that
were vulnerable to the bug include Google, Face-
book, YouTube, Pinterest, Netflix and Blogspot. Users of those websites are being asked to change their pass-
words.The Better Business Bureau
of East Kootenay is going one step forward and suggesting that
consumers change their passwords on all sites they use, particularly those that retain personal identifying information.With files from Jeff Nagel, Black Press
How to protect yourself from the Heartbleed bug
Water quality advisory for
Kimberley, Marysville, Forest Crowne; Boil Water for Kimberley
Golf Course, Riverside Campground, River Bend Lane, River Bend Road, River
Ridge Way, Tamarack Lane and Sunflower
Drive
c arolyn Gr antBulletin Editor
The freshet has begun and although Mark Creek through Kimberley is not running any-where near as quickly as it will at peak melt, turbidity is already an issue.
Interior Health regulations require that municipalities put out water quality advisories or boil water notices when turbidity reaches certain thresholds.
Particles stirred up as rivers
and streams run more quickly can carry disease.
Right now all of Kimberley, Marysville and Forest Crowne are under a water quality adviso-ry and a boil water notice is in effect for Kimberley Golf Course, Riverside Campground, River Bend Lane, River Bend Road, River Ridge Way, Tamarack Lane and Sunflower Drive. The latter areas are those that are not switched over to the Mark Creek system.
A water quality advisory means the City and Interior Health recommend that chil-dren, the elderly, people with weakened immune systems and
anyone seeking additional pro-tection drink boiled water or a safe alternative. For these at-risk populations, water intended for drinking, washing fruits and veg-etables, making juice or ice, or brushing teeth should be boiled for one minute. Boiled water should then be refrigerated in a clean, covered container. Cus-tomers could also choose to use bottled or distilled water, or water that has been filtered through a well-maintained treat-ment device.
During a Boil Water Advisory, Interior Health recommends that all customers drink boiled water or a safe alternative until further notice. Water intended for drinking, washing fruits and vegetables, making juice or ice, or brushing teeth should be boiled for one minute. Water should then be cooled and stored in a clean, covered con-tainer in the fridge. Customers may also choose to use bottled or distilled water, or water that has been filtered through a well-maintained treatment de-vice.

From Page 1“The current zoning is commercial
and there are things a lot worse than a car wash that would be allowed.”
He added that the owners bought the lot as a commercial property and should expect that a commercial venture would be allowed.
Coun. Kent Goodwin said he had been to the neighbourhood and had even been down to the Marysville car washes and observed them for quite some time.
“I think there would be significant
noise and bother to the immediate neighbours,” he said. He also pointed out that Kimberley Official Community Plan said that commercial areas spot zoned in a mainly residential area must maintain residential form and character, and he believed that applied in this case.
Coun. Bev Middlebrook said she sup-ported the rezoning. She also spent some time observing the Marysville car wash-es, and in fact lives near them, and said there was never a time where she found traffic to be an issue. She did note that homes near those car washes dealt with
noise with higher fences and shrubs.“There is no car wash in Kimberley
and we are supposed to be encouraging business. I find it hard to say no.”
With Council deadlocked, it was down to Mayor Ron McRae.
“I’ve thought long and hard about this and I’m torn,” he said. “Because I’m torn, I won’t support second reading. I would urge residents of the neighbourhood and the owners of the property to come to-gether and find a way past this impasse. There is still potential for commercial development on that lot.”

A review by Mike Redfern of Lorne Elliott’s
comedy show at Centre 64 on
April 13.
Sunday night in the theatre at Centre 64, 100 expectant people in the audience, house lights dim, stage lights illumi-nating a tall figure at the microphone, baggy black slacks and loose, open-necked white shirt, sleeves rolled up to his elbows, shaggy grey hair like a mane, a wry expression on his mobile features and a small guitar clutched in one hand. He looked at us and we looked at him and anticipation height-ened even before he spoke. And then for the next two hours, inter-rupted only by a 20 min-ute intermission, Lorne Elliott held us in convul-sions of laughter.
Currently on tour through small towns in the BC Interior, comedi-an, songwriter, and nov-elist Lorne Elliott made a stop in Kimberley and reminded us of why we hung onto his every word for a decade or more during his weekly CBC Radio show, ‘Madly Off In All Directions’. And he made us realize how much of his hu-mour we had missed back then by only hear-ing him, for in person, larger than life on stage, his physical humour and facial expressions proved to be a delight in themselves.
On Sunday night, as he illustrated the diffi-culty of trying to hold his socks up with a bungy cord threaded
through holes in his trouser pockets, well, you had to see the body language to truly appre-ciate the farcical nature of the story.
There seem to be few aspects of life that Lorne Elliott cannot find hu-mour in. From the prime minister’s smile to death by carnivorous wild animals, from po-lygamists in Creston to Bavarian ideologists in Kimberley, Elliott slyly mocked everyone and everything, much to the delight of his audience.
And when he picked up his guitar and sang us some of his songs, his lyrics were as funny as his patter. I’ll never look at an orca the same way again after hearing his Killer Whale song. And as for his moose call song, well, you just had to be there, I suppose, to see those honks and brays emerge from the moose-like contortions of his elastic mouth.
Often seeming to lose track of where he was going with a sub-ject, he called on mem-bers of the audience to remind him and the in-teractions that some-times followed became a comedy routine in themselves. “He was very clever,” comment-ed one audience mem-ber. “Intentionally ‘get-ting lost’ and asking for help gave him scope to wander but to always make a fresh start when brought back.”
Looking back on his performance I am both awed and bemused by the way in which this brilliant comedian held our attention and kept us laughing for so long by just standing on stage in a relaxed manner, prattling on about this and that in conversa-tional mode, mak-
ing off-hand observa-tions about the things that people say and do seem extraordinarily funny. It was all in the delivery which, I sup-pose, is why most of us are not comedians.
“I prefer his relaxed, somewhat dry delivery to a loudmouth, slap-stick approach (to com-edy),” commented an audience member. A preference shared by 99 others on Sunday night, it appeared, judging from the continuous laughter.
Sitting in the lighting
booth at the back of the theatre, Kimberley play-wright, composer, musi-cian, and lighting tech-nician Terry Macham has probably seen more shows at Centre 64 than anyone else. On Sunday night, he told me, he was highly amused and entertained. “It’s not often I come home from a show raving about it but that was certainly the case last night,” he said. “A very funny fel-low indeed.”
Coming next to the Theatre at Centre 64 are Indian tabla musicians,
The Mishras, returning for a third or fourth ap-pearance here on May 24. They will be followed on May 31 by boo-gie-woogie blues pianist Kenny ‘Blues Boss’ Wayne who will per-form in a cabaret-style evening in the dance studio at Centre 64. Tickets for both events are available at Centre 64 and on line at www.kimberleyarts.com.

Nelson Defreyman and Thomas Punty are on a long
walk through the mountains
Arne PetryshenTownsman Staff
One month ago two French friends began a four-month journey to travel the Rockies north to south. This weekend they made their way from Wasa through Bull River to-wards Jaffray, ultimate-ly hoping to make Eu-reka in the next couple days. Thomas Punty and Nelson Defreyman wanted to get a real sense of the landscape of Canada and the U.S. so they decided to do the trip on foot, sup-plemented by ski tour-ing and paragliding along the way.
“We want to cross all the Rockies without any motors, without anything, just paraglid-ers and our feet,” said Punty, who is in busi-ness school back in France. Defreyman, who is also his cousin, is a skiing and para-gliding instructor.
Punty said they de-cided to embark on the Rockies trip after a trip to Central Asia.
“We were coming back from Kyrgistan,” he said. “We wanted to climb those big moun-tains. It was fun, but the thing is we didn’t see that much land-scape.”
That trip was more about summiting, but because of that they didn’t get immersed into the culture and landscape. They want-ed see a mountain range in its entirety and meet people along the way.
“So that’s why we wanted to do another trip like this,” he said. “That’s why we took four months.”
They began their journey in MacKenzie, B.C., ski touring until Jasper where they sent their ski equipment to their end destination: Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Nelson Defreyman and Thomas Punty stopped by the roadside for a photo near Bull River townsite on Saturday. The travellers, from Barcelonette, France are just completing the Canadian portion of their north to south 3,000 km traverse of the Rocky Mountain range and were headed towards Jaffray, before crossing the U.S. border.
French travellers head south on epic Rockies traverse
On skis they fol-lowed along the high-way or logging roads, with the goal to take the shortest route. Punty said they some-times got lost on the back roads, but still had a great time, even with the weather being what it was.
“It was very cold,” he said, adding that those were some of coldest nights they’ve ever felt. “You are al-ways cold. It’s some-times hard, but always very interesting.”
He said it is also tir-ing, because when out in the wilderness, they don’t eat much. It’s only when they get to a town that they have a big meal.
He said traveling here is a lot different than in Europe as well. There if you’re on a mountain and have trouble often you can just descend into the
valley and there will be a town or village. Here everything is much more secluded, but they seem to enjoy that.
“It’s very nice to see the wilderness,” he said. “Compared to Eu-rope it makes you adapt a lot.”
Punty said the two of them make a good team. He’s good with the planning and logis-tics part of the journey. Defreyman has the hands on knowledge
and training. Both of them have been para-gliding since they were teenagers.
Punty said they are very complimentary in that way, rather than both having the same set of skills.
“That’s why it’s al-ways worked,” he said. “We’ve done a lot of ex-
peditions together.”They update their
website from the field by way of a video cam-era and a iPhone con-nector. They post the updates and videos along the way so you can follow along at www.xrockies.com or at www.facebook.com/XRockies.
From Page 3We visit the barren
desert delta where the mighty Colorado River no longer reaches the ocean, and the wa-ter-intensive leather tanneries of Dhaka.
Witness how hu-mans are drawn to water, from the U.S. Open of Surfing in Huntington Beach to the Kumbh Mela in Al-lahabad, where thirty million people gather for a sacred bath in the Ganges at the same time. Listen to scien-tists who drill ice cores two kilometers deep into the Greenland Ice Sheet, and roam the sublime pristine water-sheds of Northern Brit-ish Columbia.
Every living thing requires water. Hu-mans interact with it in a myriad of ways, nu-merous times a day. But how often do we consider the complexi-ty of that interaction? And, unless confronted by scarcity, when do we meditate on its ubiquity in creating, sustaining and enrich-ing life?
Shot in stunning 5K ultra high-definition video and full of soar-ing aerial perspectives, this film shows water
as a terraforming ele-ment and the scale of its reach, as well as the magnitude of our need and use. This is bal-anced by forays into the particular: a haunt-ing memory of a stolen river, a mysterious fig-ure roaming ancient rice terraces, the cru-cial data hidden in a million year old piece of ice, a pilgrim’s pri-vate ritual among thousands of others at the water’s edge.
Watermark is direct-ed by multiple award-winning film-maker Jennifer Baic-hwal and renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky, and is the third part of Burtyn-sky’s Water project, which includes a book Burtynsky: Water and a major photographic exhibition. Filmed and produced by Nicholas de Pencier and three years in the making, it is a logical extension of the trio’s previous col-laboration, Manufac-tured Landscapes. In Watermark, the viewer is immersed in a world defined by a magnifi-cent force of nature that we all too often take for granted - until it’s gone.

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN
Why would anyone believe Seymour Hersh? True, he’s the Pulitzer Prize-winning investiga-tive reporter who broke
the story of the massacre committed by US Army troops at My Lai in 1968 during the Vietnam War, and revealed the torture and sexual humiliation of Iraqi prisoners by US military police at Abu Ghraib prison in 2004. But he’s getting old (77), and he’s a freelancer, and he won’t even disclose the name of his key informant.
Whereas the US government has hun-dreds of thousands of people working for it just gathering and analys-ing intelligence, and the American media are famed worldwide for their brave defence of the truth no matter what the cost. Be-sides, has the US govern-ment ever lied to you in the past?
So we obviously should not give much credence to Hersh’s most recent story. It alleges that the poison gas attack in Da-mascus last August that killed more than a thousand people, and almost triggered a massive US air attack on Syria, was not re-ally carried out by Bashar al-Assad’s tyran-nical regime (which the US wants to over-throw)
It was, Hersh says, a false-flag operation carried out by the rebel Al-Nusra Front with the purpose of triggering an Ameri-can attack on Assad. If you can believe that, you would probably also believe his
allegation that it was the Turkish govern-ment, a US ally and NATO member, that gave the jihadi extremists of al-Nusra the chemicals to make sarin (nerve gas) and the training to carry out the mass attack in Damascus.
Hersh even says that it was General Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, who told President Barack Obama just days before the Ameri-can strikes on Syria were due to start that the evidence was not strong enough to justify an American attack on the Syrian regime.
The rest of the story we already know. Obama postponed the at-tack by deciding, quite sud-denly, that he had to get Congressional support for it. Then he cancelled it en-tirely once the Russians gave him the face-saving al-ternative of getting Assad to hand over all of his chemi-
cal weapons for destruction. There is no chance of an American attack on Syria now. But could Hersh’s back-story be true?
By last August it was clear that Assad’s regime would eventually win the civil war unless there was some radical change in the situation (like an American bombing campaign against it). So Assad’s survival depended on not giving the United States any reason to attack him.
Barack Obama had already said that any use of poison gas by the Syrian regime would cross a “red line” and trigger an American attack. In mid-August there
were United Nations inspectors in Damas-cus to look into two much smaller attacks earlier in 2013 that seemed to involve poi-son gas. And we are asked to believe that at that precise moment Assad thought it would be a neat idea to kill one or two thousand innocent civilians in the city with poison gas.
So who did it? The obvious question to ask was: Who stands to benefit from this attack? – and the answer was certainly not Assad. He would not have done this unless he was very stupid, and being wicked does not make you stupid. Whereas the rebels had every reason to do it, in order to suck American firepower in on their side.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Turkey’s prime minister for the past eleven years, has backed the Islamist rebels in the Syrian civil war from the start, and he will be in deep trouble if they lose. They WILL lose, unless either Turkey or the United States comes to their aid militarily. Erdogan would obviously rather have the US Air force do it rather than his own armed forc-es. So he had a good motive for giving the rebels the poison gas.
Hersh says that he has been told by a former senior official in the US Defense Intelligence Agency that that is what hap-pened. You can read the details on the website of the London Review of Books. And yes, he’s old, but that just means he has been getting it right about a lot of dif-ferent things for a long time.

Local members of the Kimberley Alpine Team took to the hills in the Lower Main-land to race at the Whistler Cup over the weekend.
Emma Damm, Ethan Blair, Jamie Cas-selman and Zoe Chore all represented their club while competing against 400 other races from 27 different countries.
Casselman took the top honours of the group by ending the weekend as the sec-ond overall Canadian based on perfor-mance. He took a bronze medal in U14 slalom and finished 4th in giant slalom and 9th in the second round of dual giant slalom.
““I thought the dual slalom was a cool idea,” said Casselman. “It was especially fun riding backup to the start behind the snowmobiles. I was a bit nervous before my first run of the slalom race because of the high level of competition and I really
hoped to do well this year. I got 7th in my first run and was afraid the podium was out of reach.
“I was more comfortable before my second run so I skied more aggressively with the second fastest afternoon run and ended up on the podium in third. This was my third Whistler cup and I have had a lot of good experiences. I always look forward to the breakfasts at the Roundhouse even though I have to wake up really early.”
Fellow U14 teammate Ethan Blair fin-ished 32nd in slalom, 58th in giant slalom and 40th in the first round of dual slalom.
In the U14 female category, Emma Damm raced to 31st out of 109 competi-tors in giant slalom and 20th in the first round of dual slalom.
In the U16 category, Zoe Chore placed 31st in super-G and 42nd in giant slalom in a group of 80 athletes.
“These young athletes have had very successful seasons both regionally and
provincially,” said KAT coach Jon Blair. “Zoe Chore and Jamie Casselman will fin-ish off their season by attending a BC Al-pine Talent ID camp in Whistler April 16-20th.”
The event is a pretty big affair, which simulates an Olympic atmosphere with the top 11-15 year old talent, coaches and volunteers in different cultures coming to-gether to compete. Friends are made through banquets, 7 a.m. breakfasts at the top of the mountain, live music and a pa-rade where Olympic athletes and Whistler Cup athletes proudly represent their coun-try.
Kimberley Alpine Team has been in operation since 1987. The club provides fall and winter programs for developing the love of skiing in children from the ages 4 to 19 with operations based at the Kim-berley Alpine Ski Resort. For more infor-mation go to www.KimberleyAlpineTeam.ca

Ice, Tigers set for epic playoff series finaleTRE VOR CR AWLEY
Sports Editor
Sometimes it’s hard to give credit when cred-it is due, but in this case, the Medicine Hat Tigers deserve some props.
Facing a 3-1 series deficit, they came back and won the following two outings to tie every-thing up and force the first Game Seven in the 2014 WHL playoffs.
Needing only one win, the Ice were shel-lacked 9-2 in Medicine Hat in Game Five before dropping a tight 2-1 de-cision at home in Game Six.
It’s now or never to-night in Alberta.
Ice forward Jon Mar-tin, who scored the lone goal on Monday night, brushed aside any ques-tions of confidence, after the team suffered back-to-back losses.
“We’re good,” Martin said. “We did a lot of good things in the third period and we talked about that, so we just got to carry that into Game Seven here and we’ll be fine.”
The third period Martin refers to is the final 20 minutes of the 2-1 loss on Monday. The two teams held each other without a shot on goal six minutes into the frame, with Kootenay
eventually gaining some traction and pressure in Tigers territory.
“It was the best peri-od of the series by us, by far, so I think we just need to carry that mo-mentum into the next Game Seven here, do all the good things we’ve been doing,” added Martin.
The Medicine Hat Arena is a notoriously tough building to play in.
The Tigers had the second best home re-cord in the Eastern Con-ference in the regular season, and they beat the Ice in all three meet-ings in Medicine Hat.
Kootenay bucked that trend to open the second round of the playoffs, picking up their first win in Medicine Hat for an early series lead.
“It’s probably one of the toughest rinks to play in and I think we just have to keep it sim-ple and do the little things like we’ve been doing here in the third period,” said Martin.
One key to the game will be the powerplay. After decimating the Hitmen with the man-advantage, Koote-nay has scored once in 21 powerplay opportu-nities in this series with
the Tigers.“I think we need to
simplify things, get pucks to the net,” said Ice captain Sam Rein-hart. “It’s pretty cliche, but when you’re having troubles, for the most part, it resolves when you’re keeping things simple and we definitely had success, maybe not on the scoresheet, on our powerplay through-out the series, but Game Seven is a perfect op-portunity for them to go in for us.”
If Kootenay pulls out the win, they’ll book a spot in the conference championship against the Edmonton Oil Kings.
Florida Panthers win � rst overall pick in NHL Draft
TORONTO - The Florida Panthers won the NHL Draft lottery on Tuesday, granting the team the first overall pick in the 2014 NHL Entry Draft.
Florida had an 18.8 per cent chance of winning the draft lottery, second only to the Buffalo Sabres’ 25 per cent odds.
Barrie Colts defenceman Aaron Ekblad is the top-ranked prospect heading into the draft.
The draft will be held June 27th and 28th in Phil-adelphia.
Five Canadian teams had entries in the lottery, but none moved up in the draft.
The Edmonton Oilers will select third, the Cal-gary Flames fourth, the Vancouver Canucks sixth, the Toronto Maple Leafs eighth and the Winnipeg Jets ninth.
The Ottawa Senators would have selected 10th, but they traded their pick to the Anaheim Ducks.
Montreal was not entered in the draft lottery as the Canadiens are the only Canadian team in the NHL playoffs.

Abbotsford cuts losses, severs deal with AHL’s Heat
ABBOTSFORD, B.C. - The Abbotsford Heat of the American Hockey League is leaving the City of Ab-botsford.
Mayor Bruce Banman announced Tuesday that the termination of the tenancy agreement with the team is in the best financial interests of the city.
The team, which has spent five seasons in the city, has been a money loser, and Abbotsford has agreed to pay more than $5 million to end its deal with the franchise five years early.
The team is in the Calder Cup playoffs and will leave the city after that run is complete.
The Heat is the farm team for the Calgary Flames.The Flames said there is a plan in place for the
Heat in the 2014-15 season and it will announce the team’s new location later

Toronto Raptors insist they have preferable
post-season opponentTORONTO - If the Toronto Raptors have a prefer-
able post-season opponent, they’re not saying.The Raptors wrap up their record-breaking regu-
lar season Wednesday night at New York, and won’t know until post-game who’ll they’ll face in the play-offs.
And they insist they don’t care.“We’re just worried about ourselves,” Amir John-
son said after Monday’s victory over the Milwaukee Bucks. “We just want to clean up on our mistakes. Whoever’s in front of us, we’re going to play the same way we’ve been playing all season.”
The Raptors, who set a franchise record with their 48th win of the season Monday night, will face either the Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards or Charlotte Bobcats when the opening round begins this weekend.
The Raptors are tied with the Chicago Bulls for third in the Eastern Conference, but control their own destiny. They’ll clinch the No. 3 seed if they ei-ther beat the Knicks on Wednesday, or the Bulls lose at Charlotte. They’ll finish fourth if they lose and Chicago wins.
Raptors coach Dwane Casey has been resting his starters - all-star DeMar DeRozan got the night off Monday. Casey said he would consider resting DeRozan again Wednesday, despite what outcome that might have on the game, and their conference seeding.

CALGARY — The suspect in the stabbing deaths of five young people in Calgary is the son of a senior officer with the city police force.
Chief Rick Hanson says the arrested man is a student at the University of Calgary and was an invited guest at a house party celebrating the end of the school year.
Hanson says the young man arrived at the party early Tuesday morning, got his hands on a large knife and began stabbing the victims one by one.
Three men died at the scene, while another man and a woman died in hospital.
“This is the worst murder — mass murder — in Calgary's history,” Hanson said. “We have never seen five people killed by an individual at one scene. The scene was horrific.”
Hanson says the dead were all “good kids” who were in their twenties.
He says first-degree-mur-der charges are pending and the name of the suspect will be released after they are laid.
Police were called to the northwest residential neigh-bourhood of Brentwood, not far from the University of Cal-gary campus, at about 1:20 a.m.
The suspect was arrested with the help of the police ca-nine unit about 40 minutes after the stabbings. He was taken to hospital for treatment of dog bites.
Hanson says the suspect worked at a grocery store and his father had worked with the force for 33 years. There was no immediate word about a possible motive.
The blue-sided house where the stabbing took place is on a quiet, tree-lined resi-dential street. It was surround-ed with yellow police tape as medical examiner staff brought three bodies out on stretchers.
Neighbours in the area say the house was being rented by University of Calgary students and the party stemmed from the student union's annual Bermuda Shorts Day, which was held Monday.
The event, shortened by students to BSD, is an annual
outdoor party on campus fea-turing live music and beer gar-dens to celebrate the end of classes.
The school's student news-paper, The Gauntlet, wrote about the tradition two weeks ago in a story titled “BSD: It'll be a bloodbath.”
The university posted a short statement about the deaths on its website, saying counselling would be offered to anyone needing it.
“The University of Calgary is mourning the loss of five young people killed early this morning in Brentwood,” the
statement reads. “The identities of the de-
ceased have not yet been con-firmed by Calgary Police Ser-vices. Once details are con-firmed by Calgary Police Ser-vices, the university will pro-vide a further statement.”
Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi took to Twitter to offer condolences.
“Thoughts and prayers of all Calgarians are with the young people we lost this morning, their families, friends, and university com-munity,” the mayor said.

Calgary stabbing suspect son of officer B.C. report urges tougher rules for
police checksC anadian PreSS
VICTORIA — British Columbia’s privacy commissioner says tougher rules are need-ed to stop police from releasing sensitive per-sonal information about people beyond criminal convictions to their prospective em-ployers.
In a report released today, Elizabeth Den-ham says government and police boards should immediately stop providing mental health information to employers as part of the information released in information checks.
The Information and Privacy Commissioner has called this report on the use of police infor-mation checks in B.C. her most important ever.
Denham says thou-
sands of police infor-mation checks are used by employers and vol-unteer groups every year in the hiring pro-cess and the informa-tion in these checks, which often goes be-yond criminal records, can have lasting and profound impacts on a person’s privacy.
Her report says the government should adopt legislation pro-hibiting the release of non-conviction infor-mation for employment positions outside of those working with children and other vul-nerable people.
Denham’s report says B.C.’s police infor-mation checks reveal more information about individuals than most other jurisdic-tions.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your intensity might be height-ened by a night of vivid dreams. A personal or domestic matter will loosen you up. You could see a white rabbit pop out of a black hat. Stay centered in your ap-parent good fortune, and don’t let anyone get to you. Tonight: Togetherness counts. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Others seek you out, as they have plans or a project that they would like to include you in. You might have different plans. How you explain this could define your interactions for a while. Take an overall look at a situation. Tonight: Sort through invitations. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Focus on a project, rather than allow others to be distracted. You will be optimistic when it comes to an investment. A part-ner surprises you with a differ-ent perspective. You could feel awkward about a personal crisis. Tonight: Take your time heading
home. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your creativity emerges, and you seem to find answers quickly. On the other hand, others easily could be stumped by a problem. Be careful with a roommate who might decide to cause some up-roar. Maintain a sense of humor. Tonight: Ever playful. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You need to focus on the here and now, as well as on what di-rection you want to head in. You need to be determined, or else you will be distracted too easily. Count on your inner voice. You might be receiving an odd yet valid message. Listen carefully. Tonight: At home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You could tumble into a snafu, but you will bounce right out. Use care with spending, as it could cause a problem. Tempers might flare regarding some-thing that seems more import-ant than it really is. A meeting could be more instrumental than you think. Tonight: Where the action is. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)
Patience doesn’t appear to be very evident right now, as tem-pers are close to the surface. Respect differences instead of viewing others as being wrong. Unexpected developments involving a partner or close as-sociates will land in your lap. To-night: Take a break from routine. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could choose to bypass a frustrating situation. If you would like to maximize your en-ergy, detach. Instability comes from an associate and/or a change in schedule. News sheds light on a decision. First, digest the information. Tonight: Alone does not work. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Listen to others’ complaints. You might be inclined to start a discussion and get to the bottom of a problem. You might be sur-prised by the anger that arises. Keep your opinions to yourself for now. Tonight: Your popularity is about to soar! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Zero in on your priorities while you can. A boss or a personal situation has the capacity to
distract you. Decide how to han-dle this issue, especially if you have a lot to get done. Realize that you have options. Tonight: Loosen up with a friend. Say “goodbye” to tension. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You are full of playfulness, while others seem to be pulling out their hair. If you stop, you will see that a situation has evolved that forces your hand. You need to respond to someone who really could use your support. Tonight: Out till the wee hours. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Allow your imagination to wan-der. How you deal with someone could change radically once you detach and can understand his or her actions, ideas and thoughts. You might not have seen this dimension of this per-son before. Tonight: Be where there is great music. BORN TODAY Aviation pioneer Wilbur Wright (1867), basketball player Ka-reem Abdul-Jabbar (1947), actor Charlie Chaplin (1889) ***
Dear Annie: My stepson, “Louis,” is 45 years old, has been unemployed for the past 10 years (he never gets along with his bosses or co-workers) and got busted for DUI, for which he underwent court-ap-pointed treatment and had his license re-voked for five years. When his dad and I married, we moved into my home, and Louis moved into his father’s place with the stipulation that he would get a job and pay rent and utilities. We are still paying the mortgage and taxes. Louis moved his girlfriend (now wife) into the house. She works full time. Annie, my husband still pays all of Louis’ bills, including the cable movies Louis buys online. Louis feels entitled to this. When he found out we were selling our old car and didn’t give it to him, he went on a raging tirade and started throwing stuff. I almost called the police. My husband has discussed the situation with Louis many times, but no money is forthcoming. I don’t understand why his wife doesn’t help pay the bills. When I bring up kicking him out or putting a For Sale sign in front of the house, my husband agrees something should be done, but gen-erally gets angry with me and gives Louis a free pass. I know he feels bad about Louis’ lack of ambition and self-centered behav-ior, but he won’t do anything. In another year, we will have paid off that house. My husband and I are in our late 70s, and he is not in the best of health. If he should die, I don’t know what happens to the house. What legal recourse do I have? I refuse to pay the freeloaders’ way through life. -- Upset Landlord, Not Wicked Step-mother Dear Upset: Is your name on the deed to the house? Do you and your husband have legal wills? Who is your husband’s benefi-ciary? Please seek legal advice immediate-ly, and make sure things are settled the way you want. In the meantime, we hope you can impress upon your husband that Lou-is will someday have to fend for himself, and the longer he postpones growing up the harder it will be. Dad is doing him no favors. Dear Annie: Seven years ago, my husband walked out on our 9-month-old son and me. He’s been mostly out of the picture since. For the past four years, there has been no contact from him whatsoever. Throughout all this time, his brother has kept in touch through texts and occasion-al visits. Lately, there seems to be a spark when we are together. I know his family would approve. When my ex and I sepa-rated, his mom told me she thought I was a better match for her other son. Is it wrong to have a relationship with my ex’s brother? -- Confused Dear Confused: There is no reason why you cannot have a relationship with your ex-brother-in-law if you are willing to deal with whatever consequences occur as a result. Would it mean more contact with your ex? Would that be difficult? Tempting? Would your ex try to punish you in some way? If you can handle the fallout, it’s fine with us. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Sick of Xenophobes,” who says she speaks excel-lent English and wants to know why people are rude to her. I agree with you that her accent might be difficult to understand. I run into this prob-lem at least once a week and have to ask the person to slow down and speak more clearly. It’s especially difficult when they are reading from a script and I interrupt for clarification, and they apologize repeated-ly. I’d rather they skip the apologies and get to the point. All that blather is annoying to listen to. Maybe better headsets would help. -- Just a Thought Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

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

ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK — A women’s media group has created a new award for courage honouring Associated Press pho-tographer Anja Nied-ringhaus, who was killed on assignment in Af-ghanistan, the group announced Tuesday.
The International Women’s Media Foun-dation said the award will be given out every year to a female photo-journalist whose work “follows in the footsteps of Anja Niedringhaus.’’
It is funded with a $1 million gift from the
Howard G. Buffett Foun-dation, a private family foundation that seeks to improve the lives of the world’s poor and mar-ginalized — often the subjects of Niedring-haus’ photographs.
“It is heartening to see Anja’s memory hon-oured in a way that will recognize the work of future generations of fe-male photojournalists,’’ said Santiago Lyon, AP’s director of photography. “She set a wonderful ex-ample to so many in our profession through her compassion, courage and resilience.’’
Niedringhaus started her career as a freelance photographer when she was 16, working for a local newspaper in her native Germany. Her coverage of the fall of the Berlin Wall led to a staff position with the European Pressphoto Agency in 1990. She was based in Frankfurt, Sa-rajevo and Moscow, and spent much of her time covering the brutal con-flict in the former Yugo-slavia.
She joined the AP in 2002 and worked throughout the Middle East as well as Afghani-
stan and Pakistan. She was part of the AP team that won the 2005 Pulit-zer Prize for Breaking News Photography for coverage of Iraq, among many journalistic awards and honours for her work.
Niedringhaus was killed April 4 in the east-ern city of Khost, when an Afghan police unit commander walked up to the car where she was sitting in the back seat and opened fire.
Reporter Kathy Gan-non, who was with her, was wounded in the at-tack.

KINGSTON, Jamaica — Jamaica has appointed its first poet laureate in 50 years in a bid to revitalize the arts and preserve the Caribbean country’s literary history.
At a Tuesday gathering at Jamai-ca’s national library, Tourism Min-ister Wykeham McNeill named poet Mervyn Morris to the honor-ary position.
Morris has published several volumes of his own poetry and authored and edited a wide range
of anthologies and essay collec-tions.
He most recently wrote a book about Louise Bennett-Coverley, a beloved Jamaican poet and folk-lorist who brought the island’s unique patois to the world.
He is a retired literature profes-sor at Jamaica’s campus of the Uni-versity of the West Indies.
Morris says bringing poetry to the wider public will be a “major service to Jamaican culture.’’
The post lasts for three years.

LONDON — Staff at a Lon-don hair salon say they had a close shave with North Kore-an officials after using the country’s leader, Kim Jong Un, to promote discount hair-cuts.
M&M Hair Academy says it received a visit by two men from the nearby North Kore-an embassy after putting up a poster last week featuring a picture of Kim — who sports a distinctive undercut — and the slogan “Bad Hair Day?’’
Barber Karim Nabbach said the manager refused to remove the poster and re-ported the incident to police.
London’s Metropolitan Police confirmed Tuesday that officers had spoken to both sides of the dispute and concluded “there were no of-fences for us to investigate.’’
Embassy officials could not immediately be reached for a comment.

The Somerset Humane Society in Skowhegan received the carrots last week from a trucking company that wanted to get rid of them after a supermarket man-ager turned them away because some were bruised.
The carrots were still edible and the trucking company didn’t want to waste them.
Shelter Director Hattie Spaulding esti-mates they got three to four tons of carrots.
She tells the Morning Sentinel she’s do-nated them to area food pantries and home-less shelters, the county jail, and offered them for 50 cents a bag to the public.
Most of the dogs and cats at the shelter aren’t particularly interested in carrots, but Spaulding says a local horse owner has of-fered to take some.

EVERETT, Wash. — The death toll from the mudslide that hit the Washington town of Oso has risen to 37.
The Snohomish County medical exam-iner’s office said Tuesday it has received one more victim. The person’s name has not been released.
The sheriff’s office says seven other peo-ple are still listed as missing.
A search for bodies continues in the debris left when the March 22 landslide raced across the North Fork of the Still-aguamish River and buried dozens of homes in the riverfront community about 55 miles (90 kilometres) northeast of Seat-tle.
