The last trip Alicia De Grandis made to her birth city of Tabuelan, Philippines was almost one year ago, and at that time, the land was dusty and the climate, dry.

“This is in the northern part where people farm the land,” said De Grandis.

“There isn’t too much rain and the farmers depend on the weather to grow their food.”

Fast forward to Nov. 8 when one of the deadliest storms to hit the Philippines landed on the island country leaving dev-astation and death in its wake.

According to the latest reports, the Philippine govern-ment estimates that nationwide, the death toll from Typhoon Haiyan stands at 3,982 with 1,602 still missing and more than 200,000 homes destroyed, with over one million people displaced.

“All their crops have been washed away and they won’t be able to grow food for another year or two,” she said.

Community responds to disaster in Philippines

B Y V A L E R I E R O S S ITimes Staff

Fruitvale council has unveiled a vision for its downtown that cel-ebrates the community's natural resources.

But according to two outspoken businessmen in the community, the newly drafted design plan looks more fitting for Whistler.

The village has released its updat-ed draft of the commercial develop-ment permit area design guidelines and zoning and development permit area bylaw into the community for consideration.

The wood-first community is

moving away from its outdated Victorian theme and into the 21st century with a design guideline that lends itself to using rustic forms and materials like stone, rock and wood and encourages earth tones in keep-ing with this trend.

“We're looking at the natural area, we're surrounded by moun-tains and we're in a valley ...,” explained Lila Cresswell, Fruitvale's chief administrative officer.

“The challenge becomes then how do you tie this all together so you're community can grow and change but not lose its flavour.”

The suggested look is part of the

village's bylaw for its development permit area, which covers all of the village's business sector. The document it is replacing was origi-nally introduced in 1982 but was amended many times since changes were last made in 1986.

Discussion around updating this document began as early as 2010 when the village developed its new official community plan and for-mally continued last year and into this year with open houses held to gather public and business input.

The village held a public infor-mation meeting early this month that saw about 20 people attend and

learn about the draft plans from CTQ Consultants Ltd., which is based in Kelowna.

Villagers Inn manager Len Fuller takes issue with the sug-gested “drab” colour palette and sign restrictions. He and business owner Mary Siu just took a stand for their choice of a scarlet red trim to highlight and attract people to their business located on Highway 3B.

Siu decided to brighten the exte-rior of the building this summer when a leaky roof begged for repairs anyway but not without securing a permit first.

Trail Times with his column “Tax Tips & Pits”

Two clubs is the Stayman con-vention asking for a four-card

major. Two diamonds and two hearts are transfers to hearts and spades respect-ively. Two spades is a transfer to three clubs which is either passed or corrected to three

diamonds which, in turn, has to be passed.

With zero to four points, one may trans-fer to a six-card minor, and with zero to seven points, one may trans-fer to a major and pass, otherwise one just passes with a flat zero to seven points.

With eight to nine

points, one may use Stayman or transfer to a major, then invite. Without a four-card or longer major, one may just bid two notrump to invite.

With ten to fifteen points, one can use Stayman or a major-suit transfer, then bid game. Without a four-card or longer major, one may just bid three notrump.

With 16 plus points, one investigates slam.

When partner opens one notrump, what does three clubs or three diamonds in response mean? These are free bids. One use of a minor at the three-level is show-ing a six-card minor with six to eight high card points and two of the top three hon-ours. It invites partner to bid three notrump with a top honour in the minor or to pass three of the minor. WIth nine to 14 points and a six-card minor, one simply bids three notrump.

The bidding: North does not open the bid-ding with a weak two in diamonds because he has a four-card major. Furthermore, a

weak two is not cor-rect here because North could be a very strong dummy if part-ner opens one spade or one notrump. South, with 16 points, does open one notrump.

North does not have eight points, and therefore, can-not use Stayman. If he uses Stayman and then bids diamonds, partner will get an incorrect description of the hand. However, North can bid three diamonds inviting partner to either pass or bid three notrump.

South, with one of the top three honours, knows partner has the other two and bids

game.The Lead: The ten

of clubs. Leading from the heart tenace is not recommended with only a four-card suit. One does not mind giving declarer a trick when setting up a five-card or longer suit. However, this is not the case when trying to set up a four-card suit. West can lead the ten of clubs and hope his partner can find a heart switch.

The play: Declarer will win six diamonds and two clubs for down one. If West leads a heart, declarer makes his contract.

Result: 3NT-1 for -50

FROM PAGE 1Halfway through the job, the village put a stop order

on the repairs because the work was being done without a permit and at the same time, the village noticed the paint selected didn’t fit with design guidelines set out for revitalization and new construction.

“Fruitvale is more of a freedom loving town,” said Fuller. “The people here live in Fruitvale because they do not want to live in a highly controlled environment like they’re trying to put out.”

He said there hasn’t been real input from the com-munity because people don’t follow when these impor-tant meetings are held and have no idea that this process is underway.

“I know the public sentiment in Fruitvale and it does not support these kind of changes at all,” he added.

Kirby Epp, owner of Valhalla Physiotherapy, couldn’t attend the meeting because he was working but he said in his mind development permits and design plans are necessary.

“I think putting a community’s best face on is impor-tant to attracting new residents and businesses,” he said. “I would prefer it if guidelines and bylaws were not necessary and that common sense would prevail but, unfortunately, that isn’t always the case.”

Randy Moore, owner of Leather and Steel off of 1st Street, doesn’t quite get how the new look fits with Fruitvale and its people.

“I think if we were Fernie or Red Mountain it would be great,” he said. “I think it’s a gorgeous look, but I think it’s somewhat unrealistic for Fruitvale.

“Sure there has to be rules and regulations but I don’t see the point of rules unless there is an actual issue to make a rule for,” he added. “My confusion comes in as why set up something that you have to constantly negotiate.”

But that’s the whole point of the guidelines, Cresswell suggests.

“All of these things don’t affect anybody who current-ly has something cited because it’s non-conforming and what happens in future is if the property gets redevel-oped then it must be developed at the same standards,” she said.“It is not prohibitive it’s (prescribed) so very simply we want to see some of these elements used but it’s all a negotiation process.”

There was much to say around the suggested look of the village because the entire document took a new approach. Additionally, there was still input on the zon-ing bylaw, which sets out what can be done.

Though much detail was carried over from the older document, council did include the allowance for second-ary suites and more levels of housing to help densify the town as well as put some restrictions on parking recreational vehicles in yards. (Though Cresswell admit-ted that due to public response from the last meeting, council will likely amend this.)

Council is currently in the process of making amend-ments to the bylaw that has gone to first reading. There will be a public hearing some time in mid December or early January before the third reading and final adop-tion.

Now is the time for the public to have a read either online or in hard copy at the library or village office and provide feedback or educate themselves prior to the public hearing.

Public input sought before final reading

Demolition of three Pine Avenue houses destroyed by a Labour Day fire continued this week.

Fire crews were called to the scene at the junction of Pine Avenue and Topping Street in the early morning hours of Sept. 3, where a house was consumed in fire and two homes on either side were engulfed in flames.

The middle home, which was uninhabited, was presumed to be the source of the fire.

Although the three houses were insured, including coverage for demolition and removal, the renters occupying one of the homes did not have tenant’s insurance and lost all their belongings in the fire.

“The landlords have insurance to protect their investment,” said Gary Kanda, manager and adjuster for Kootenay Adjusting and Consulting Ltd. in Trail. “But the tragic situa-tion is that the tenants didn’t have insurance and of course, they lost everything.”

Kanda said a recurring phenom-enon he sees with tenant-occupied properties and fire-related loss, is the lack of renter’s insurance.

“It’s really sad because for a min-imum of $300 a year they would have temporary lodging paid for in this tight rental market and replace-ment of their goods,” he explained. “In general, tenants often do not see their valuables as much. But surprisingly, when you sit down and calculate the loss, it is shocking how everything adds up,”said Kanda, adding, “sometimes into the tens of thousands of dollars.”

With the last of the homes knocked down Tuesday, a cause of the blaze still has not been deter-mined, confirmed Sgt. Rob Hawton of the Trail and Greater District RCMP.

“The case is still under investi-gation with no new information to supply at this time,” said Hawton. “It has not been determined whether the fire was set or accidental,” he explained. “We never give up on these things because sometimes we obtain information down the road from unlikely sources.”

The blaze was brought under con-trol in five hours with 32 firefighters from Rossland, Warfield, Trail and Montrose attending the site, with no injuries reported.

T h e V e r n o n M o r n i n g S T a rLife can’t get any better for skiers.Instead of waiting another week for the

scheduled start of the alpine season, Silver Star Mountain Resort is hosting an early preview Saturday and Sunday because of the 90 centimetres of snow on the ground.

“We are excit-ed to give ski-ers and riders a chance to hit the slopes early on this bonus week-end and experi-ence what Silver Star has to offer,” said Michael Sherwood, general manager.

For the early bonus weekend, Silver Star Resort will give access to about 25 runs.

Planning is also well underway for the official launch of the alpine season Nov. 28.

T h e V i c T o r i a n e w SThe “grandparent” phone scam tricked

an elderly Saanich man out of $2,500.Saanich police say the man received a call

Nov. 15 from a crying woman who identified herself as “your favourite granddaughter.”

The female said she had been arrested in Victoria after crashing her friend’s rental car while drunk and she needed $2,500.

The “granddaughter’s” supposed lawyer explained how to send the money to a car rental company in Quebec. The Saanich man made the transfer, and then later called his granddaughter, at which time he realized he had been duped. It was too late to stop the transfer.

VICTORIA – The B.C. government has announced the first money-saving moves in its “core review” of provincial functions, eliminating Crown agencies that buy off-sets for government carbon emissions and manage herit-age properties in the Victoria area.

The functions of the Pacific Carbon Trust and the Provincial Capital Commission will continue, but will be run directly by gov-ernment ministries, Energy Minister Bill Bennett announced Tuesday.

Bennett, minister in charge of the core review, said winding up the Pacific Carbon Trust is expected to save $5.6 million annually by 2015. The

CEO and 13 staff are to be offered other pos-itions in government and Bennett said he does not expect sever-ance to be paid.

Winding up the Provincial Capital Commission is expected to save about $1 million, while maintaining the agency’s cultural and student outreach pro-grams.

Capital region properties including St. Anne’s Academy, the Crystal Garden and the former CPR steamship termin-al will continue to be operated by gov-ernment, with no immediate plans to sell them.

P o s t - s e c o n d a r y schools and health authorities will con-tinue to pay mil-lions to offset their fossil fuel use, and

the money will go to industrial, forest and other projects deemed to reduce carbon emissions. Bennett said the government intends to adapt the program as has been done with public school offsets, so hos-pitals and universities can invest in their own energy-saving efforts.

The Pacific Carbon Trust was criticized in a March 2013 report by former auditor general John Doyle. He said the two lar-gest investments by the trust, a for-

est preserve in the Kootenays and a flar-ing reduction pro-gram for EnCana nat-ural gas operations at Fort Nelson, would have happened with-out subsidies from provincial operations.

Other offset pro-jects funded by the trust include hybrid heating systems for the Westin Whistler Resort and Spa and the Coast Hillcrest resort in Revelstoke, as well as fuel sub-stitution for mills and greenhouse oper-ations. The program has been unpopular

since it was estab-lished in 2008.

“Who in their right mind considers a school or hospital a polluter?” said Jordan Bateman, B.C. direc-tor of the Canadian Taxpayers’ Federation. “Taxpayers are spend-ing millions on buy-ing carbon credits for these facilities rather than providing front-line services.”

E n v i r o n m e n t Minister Mary Polak said international experts have certified the trust’s invest-ments as legitimate offsets.

Lawyer’s sentence increasedB y r i c h a r d r o l k eVernon Morning Star

A Vernon lawyer will spend more time in jail.

The B.C. Court of Appeal ruled this week that William Mastop’s jail sentence should be extended from one year to two-and-a-half years.

“The trial judge erred by focus-ing on the lack of evidence of direct consequences flowing from the respondent’s actions, rather than focusing on the respondent’s intention and the egregious nature of his actions,” states the Court of Appeal decision.

Mastop pleaded guilty earlier

this year to participating in the activities of a criminal organiz-ation, commonly known as the Greeks, in Vernon.

However, Crown counsel initi-ated an appeal, saying the one-year sentence wasn’t sufficient given the case.

Mastop entered a guilty plea in December 2012 to participat-ing in the activities of a North Okanagan criminal organization. He was arrested in January 2010 in Lake Country.

It’s believed Mastop is the first lawyer in Canada charged with participating in the activities of a criminal organization.

An investigator with the Transportation Safety Board (TSB) has been deployed to Abbotsford to investigate the fatal plane crash that took place Monday night.

The role of the TSB will be to “gather information and assess the occurrence,” according to a news release. Its role is not to assign fault or determine civil or crim-inal liability.

Wreckage from a light aircraft was found at about 9 p.m. in a wooded area south of Highway 1 following a search mission that began around 4:30 Monday afternoon.

The pilot was deceased when he was found.

Abbotsford Police Const. Ian MacDonald said the search efforts, which involved about 30 people, were hampered by the pelting rain, wind, darkness and rough terrain.

Hunger Games: Catching Fire

FROM PAGE 1De Grandis has siblings and their children

who farm the hard-hit northern land in the province of Cebu and many relatives living in an area of Cebu City that was less ravaged by the typhoon’s fierce winds.

“Half of my family lives on the farm and everything was destroyed,”she said. “It is a remote area and because there is no electricity I haven’t been able to contact them.”

De Grandis is helping raise money for the West Kootenay Filipino Canadian Society and will be on hand during the Dec. 1 community fundraiser at the Genelle hall, with all proceeds being sent directly to those affected.

“People are starv-ing and kids are standing by the side of the road waiting for help,” she said. “And food is being hijacked because they are starving and just trying to survive. We need to help right now.”

She explained that the farming towns near her native Tabuelan are in a distal mountainous region, and Canadian Red Cross helicopters are unable to land, meaning food, water and medical aide isn’t reaching the village’s survivors.

“The situation is critical and we are going to help because we have people there that we know,” said De Grandis. “They can carry the food and water into the village because a heli-copter can’t land. That is how we can get what they need distributed. You need to know some-body there.”

People in the area and many business have responded to a previous Trail Times story, (“Greater Trail’s Filipino community plans fund-raising for typhoon survivors,” Trail Times, Nov. 13), which has Siony Thompson feeling more hope.

Thompson is organizing the Society’s fund-raiser and has relatives in the south eastern coastal region affected by the tropical storm.

“I couldn’t believe it, right away I had a $100 donation from person in Trail,” she explained. “She is wheelchair bound and couldn’t get to my home so I went and picked it up,” said Thompson. “It was wonderful and we’ve a few more calls since then.”

To donate to the Filipino Society, or for infor-mation, call Thompson at 250-693-5476.

Alicia De Grandis has lived in Trail for 26 years but her life in the Philippines is never far from her heart, especially when tending to her garden and greenhouse, along with husband Angelo, in the backyard of her West Trail home.

And she has never forgotten that surviving hardship isn’t just about the family getting by, it’s about the wellbeing of the community as a whole.

“We cannot wait for agencies to get there to help, because the people will die waiting,” said De Grandis. “Because it’s not just about help-ing my family. They are all homeless and if you give to your family then you have to give to help someone else’s family too. That is what we do.”

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SMONTREAL - Peter

Wintonick, a renowned Canadian documen-tary filmmaker with a career that spanned more than 35 years, was remembered Monday as a generous mentor who always found new ways to make socially engaging flims.

Wintonick, 60, was born in Trenton, Ont., but based in Montreal. He died of a rare form of liver cancer.

“Peter was a mentor to me, was a mentor to a lot of people,” said Bob Moore, himself an award-winning produ-

cer at EyeSteelFilm where Wintonick was an executive producer.

“He was sort of one of the icons of cinema. He was also one of the most generous people. He brought everyone together but was also one of the most intel-ligent, astute minds in cinema and around the world.”

Wintonick was involved in more than 100 films and trans-media projects, one of the most notable being 1992’s “Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media,” which looked at the life and ideas

of the political activist and intellectual.

He co-directed the National Film Board of Canada-Necessary Illusions production with Mark Achbar.

The NFB describes that film as one of the most commercially successful documen-taries in Canadian his-tory.

Another of his films, “Cinema Verite:

Defining the Moment,” which was released in 1999, took home seven awards including a Special Jury Award at the Banff World Media Festival.

He won the Governor General’s Award in Visual and Media Arts in 2006, a year after he was named Thinker in Residence by the premier of South

Australia.Moore said

Wintonick was always striving to enable film-making. Only a month ago he was working with Nobel Peace Prize laureate Aung San Suu Kyi to set up a human rights film festival in Burma.

“We’re talking about a legacy of real social change through filmmaking,” he said.

OPINION

The sad state of conservatism in CanadaSenate scandals,

admissions of smoking crack, threats to fight

in the legislature, and an overall lack of innovative ideas: the crisis facing Canadian conservatism today span from the local to the federa and is being felt across the country.

There are a variety of reasons for this sad state of affairs but there is no single person who can be held responsible.

A major cause, how-ever, are the poor deci-sions being made by the movement’s leaders that reflect badly on the ideol-ogy as a whole.

For instance, take Toronto Mayor Rob Ford. His unsurprising admis-sion that he smoked crack-cocaine in one of his self-described “drunk-en stupors” is in no way connected with him being a conservative.

Yet his behaviour and outrageous belief that he is still fit to govern has damaged conservatism at both the municipal and provincial level.

In fact, Ontario PC Leader Tim Hudak has had to face criticism for Ford’s actions in the Legislature.

Meanwhile in Ottawa, the conservative brand has been damaged by the Senate Scandal, not only because of the rather mundane expense scandal involving Senators Pamela Wallin, Patrick Brazeau and Mike Duffy, but more importantly because of Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s unwillingness to take responsibility for either his own actions or the actions of his party.

The recent suspensions of the three Senators without due process or the conclusion of criminal probes – a public relations strategy whose aim was to convince Canadians that the situation was being dealt with seriously (when precisely the opposite seems to be the case) – have only exacerbated an already horrendous situa-tion.

It’s obvious that Canadian conservatives need to start demanding more from their leaders.

They also need to start asking serious questions about what it really means to be conservative in Canada and to tackle the underlying beliefs that are defined as traditionally conservative.

American conservatism has not done Canadian conservatives any favours by constantly injecting radical social beliefs into political movements, thereby fundamentally altering the nature of con-servative values.

While Canada is not immune from these types of debates, they tend to be more moderate in nature.

That said, as Canadian

conservative leaders con-tinue to damage their ideology either by their behaviour (poor) and/or by implementing policies that have no traceable foundations in conserva-tive thought, the demands for change, for a higher standard, will become more forceful.

The fear is that, as unhappiness with the current state of affairs increase, radical ideals could begin to flourish. Canadian conservatives then run the risk of a Tea Party movement of their own springing up and replacing the moder-ate voices. Such a rad-ical movement will never resonate widely in the Canadian political con-text and will only breed further distrust and fear among non-conservative voters.

There is nothing new, or course, in the fact that there are different vari-ants of conservatism. But there are limits to what can be considered a legit-imate political ideology.

Ant i -homosexual i ty,

racism, sexism and a belief that government has a role to play in the bed-rooms of the nation are not conservative. Bigotry and discrimination are not conservative.

Unfortunately, particu-larly in the U.S. sense, the overarching label of “con-servative” has become a haven for hate and beliefs that are fundamentally antithetical to what con-servatism has historically stood for.

Small government, fis-cal responsibility, reduced government interven-tion in the economy, effi-ciency and national pride are what have defined Canadian conservatism to date.

The movement should not lose sight of the ideals that have guided it for so long.

It is time for Canadian conservatives to return to their ideological roots.

I’d like to comment on FortisBC Joyce Wagenaar’s response to a letter to the editor (“FortisBC responds to comments,” Trail Times, Nov. 15).

I feel she has left out some important facts that would be interesting for FortisBC rate-payers to know.

FortisBC has not shown any effort towards resolution. The last three negotiations/meet-ings with the IBEW 213 bar-gaining committee were initi-ated by the IBEW not FortisBC. In fact, at the first union-initiated mediation, FortisBC walked out after only five hours of a scheduled two days of mediated talks.

Prior to these talks the IBEW had offered a return to work agreement as a cool-ing off period while awaiting mediation. FortisBC refused. To get FortisBC to the table for another attempt at mediation the union was forced to accept new discussion items. FortisBC still refused to end the lockout.

It is true that the latest ten-tative agreement was rejected by a majority of the IBEW membership.

The IBEW bargaining com-mittee and Rod Russell felt obliged to bring the offer to a vote despite the fact neither were consulted or involved in the negotiations leading to the tentative agreement. The bargaining committee believes that the IBEW membership has a democratic right to vote on its future.

The majority rejection of the

offer shows the resolve to reach a fair and reasonable agree-ment with no concessions to working conditions, such as a forced 9.5-hour work day. Joyce Wagenaar states that the 9.5-hour work day would be sched-uled annually, but neglects to mention that FortisBC would be able to schedule a 9.5-hour work day with no notice to the affected employee.

Another concession in the last tentative agreement includ-ed eliminating System Power dispatcher’s rights to refuse to cross a picket line, a corner-stone of democracy and union philosophy. To ensure public safety IBEW System Power dis-patchers performed their dut-ies until FortisBC management was able to assume them.

It is also true that FortisBC employees make a decent wage. We’d like to continue to make a decent wage. The IBEW is ask-ing for less than a cost of liv-ing increase annually. Also, the skewed dollar figures Wagenaar quotes include health and pen-sion benefits.

In FortisBC’s own submis-sion to the BCUC it admits it pays the union employees up to 10 percent less than the B.C. industry standard. It pays its upper management more than the industry standard.

In regards to the reason for the lockout: FortisBC was informed by the IBEW that locking out individual employ-ees would constitute locking out all employees stationed at that headquarters. FortisBC still attempted to lock out a

single employee at the System Control Centre despite being aware of the resulting threat-ened job action. This action sent a clear message to the union that FortisBC felt it was capable of operating the elec-trical system safely without IBEW representative employ-ees. FortisBC locked out its employees the next day even though the system control cen-tre dispatchers did not walk out.

FortisBC has also demon-strated a lack of integrity in past agreements. Three months after signing the 2005 agree-ment, FortisBC eliminated cof-fee breaks, as it wasn’t specific-ally mentioned in the agree-ment.

In the last agreement, power line technicians were to be paid an 8 per cent premium for attraction and retention rea-sons as they are paid 10 per cent less than the rest of the province’s power line techni-cians. It was taken away after a year. The demand is still appar-ent.

The IBEW bargaining com-mittee is ready and willing to meet at any time. Since being locked out our schedule is wide open. FortisBC: actions speak louder than words.

If FortisBC truly wants to get back to the bargaining table it should set some dates for open discussion on the issues.

To the person to whom we lent our gas can Friday night (Fruitvale) when you ran out of fuel.

We kindly lent you gas and our gas can to help you out. You told us that no one else would help you. Unfortunately,

you neglected to return it. The jerry can is of small

value. Helping you out in a rough situation is of greater value.

One day, an honest person may need help and we just may hesitate to help him or

her because of our experience with you.

That is the harm that may come from your actions. We truly hope you are feeling good about yourself today.

The Beaver Valley Skating Club’s season is in full swing as the club hit the ice for its annual Lap-a-thon Friday, and recognized two of its skaters’ strong performances at recent competitions.

Close to 40 skaters from StarSkaters to adults helped raise money for the B.V. Skating Club by gathering pledges and taking to the ice for fun and fitness in the hour-long lap-a-thon.

Each skater was assigned to one of four teams through-

out the event in an effort to foster friendships and cooper-ation, but most importantly - participation.

Included were team-leaders Jacob Verhelst and Mackenzie Walts, both recently returned from prov-incial skating competitions.

Walts competed in the Super Series Autumn Leaves competition in Chilliwack last month, and came in a very impressive fifth place out of 17 skaters in Senior Bronze women. Walts scored a 10.42 in elements and 7.86 in program components for

a combined 18.28, finishing less than two-points away from a bronze medal.

“I was really surprised,” said Walts. “I was like ‘Oh really?’ I had a better score than I expected but some of my jumps were not so good.”

The Fruitvale native skates up to 20 hours per week between the B.V. Club and Nelson figure skating club to prepare for the skate compe-titions.

Meanwhile Jacob Verhelst competed in the B.C./Yukon Sectional Championship in Richmond earlier this month,

placing sixth overall. “It was a very good experi-

ence, I took a lot away from it and know what to do for next time,” said Verhelst.

The sectionals are also a qualifying competition for the Skate Canada Challenge in Regina next month, and the rankings are used to select the skaters for the B.C. Winter Games in Mission in February.

The club is now preparing for its next competition, the East Kootenay Invitational, in Kimberley Nov. 29 to Dec. 1.

Skating Club does laps for ‘fun-draiser’

B Y T I M E S S T A F FThe BCHL recognized

the good play of the Trail Smoke Eaters over the week-end, in particular that of Cody Bardock by awarding the six-foot-five defenceman with the BCHL Player of the Week honour.

Bardock lifted the Smokies to identical 3-2 wins against Nanaimo Clippers and Salmon Arm SilverBacks on the week-end. The Lethbridge native

scored the winning goal in both games, includ-ing a second-overtime period blast against the SilverBacks on Saturday.

Bardock earned first star in the Salmon Arm match and was named the game’s second star against the Clippers Friday.

The 20-year-old has counted four goals and an assist in 10 games since joining the Smoke Eaters last month from the Sherwood Park Crusaders of the AJHL.

The Trail Smoke Eaters and KidSport Trail are teaming up for a fun-filled and barbecue-fueled tailgate party to kick off the Smokies’ game against the Vernon Vipers on Friday and celebrate Sports Day.

Last year the inaugural Sports Day in Canada slipped by largely unnoticed, so as B.C.’s num-ber-one sport’s town, local community groups felt compelled to join forces this year to cele-brate all sports.

“We are all about partnering with others,” said KidSport’s Betty Anne Marino. “So natur-ally we partnered up with Local 480 and the United Way so that we all come together to cele-brate, because everybody is involved in sport in some way, and so this is our way of saying let’s get together in a celebration of what your sport is, celebrate Sports Day in Canada with your jersey and your sport.”

Not only will Local 480 and United Way be flipping burgers and pouring beverages for all who attend, but everyone under 18 who shows up wearing his or her jersey, no matter what sport or activity, will be given a free ticket to the Smoke Eater game.

“What we are saying to people is ‘Wear your team jersey’ . . . be it from volleyball, from golf, from hockey, from cross-country skiing we don’t care what it is, and you will get a free ticket at the tailgate party . . . it could be Steps Dance for all we care.”

The Trail Smoke Eater players will be warm-ing up with the kids at 5:45 p.m. before taking on the Vipers at 7:30 p.m., and special guests Mike Mondin, coach of Team Canada’s Sledge Hockey team, and Rossland’s Ian Lockey, mem-ber of the Canadian Paralympic ski team, will be on hand.

Marino is especially excited about the par-ticipation of Mondin and Lockey, and giving people the opportunity to meet them and talk about their upcoming Olympic experience in Sochi, Russia.

The Beaver Valley Skating Club’s Mackenzie Walts and Jacob Verhelst performed well at recent provincial competitions and joined the rest of the club for its annual Lap-a-thon at the Beaver Valley Arena on Friday.

B Y T I M E S S T A F F The Selkirk College Saints main-

tained their grip on first place in the B.C. Intercollegiate Hockey League standings on Saturday night, rolling to a decisive 9-5 victory over previ-ously undefeated (6-0) Simon Fraser University (SFU) in front of a raucous crowd at the Castlegar Rec Complex.

Cody Fidgett scored a pair of first period goals and assisted on three other

later in the game to total five points on the night.

With the scored tied 3-3 after one, the Saints regrouped and dominated the second period, outshooting the Clan by a 15-4 margin and striking for a trio of goals.

Former Beaver Valley Nitehawk Mason Spear scored twice in the per-iod and Thomas Hardy put the game out of reach early in the third on

another Selkirk man-advantage, and the teams went on to trade a pair of goals each over the reminder of regu-lation with Connor McLaughlin and Garrett Kucher tallying for the hosts.

Former Trail Smoke Eater captain Logan Proulx and centre Thomas Hardy each finished the night with three points, while Garrett, McLaughlin, Spear and Scott Swiston all enjoyed two-point nights.

DENVER - Reigning Olympic downhill champion Lindsey Vonn has crashed while training ahead of her return to racing following major knee surgery.

U.S. Ski Team spokesman Tom Kelly said Tuesday that Vonn is being evaluated at a hospital after being taken off the slope at Copper Mountain, Colo., on a sled, which is standard procedure.

Kelly said he is not sure whether Vonn hurt her surgically repaired right knee.

“We have no reason to believe it’s anything significant right now,” Kelly said.

The four-time over-all World Cup cham-pion tore her ACL and MCL in a crash at the world cham-pionships in February. She has been aiming to return to World Cup competition next week in Beaver Creek, Colorado.

The Sochi Games

are in February.With her knee

feeling so good - she was months ahead of schedule - Vonn thought about push-ing up her return to competitive ski racing to the season-open-ing race in Soelden, Austria, late last month.

But she changed her mind and skipped it to train even more.

Vonn recently said her super-G is “some of the best super-G I’ve ever skied, but my downhill still needs a little more time.”

She’s been train-ing at the team’s speed centre in Copper Mountain, even post-ing on her Twitter account Monday: “Catching some air today in Downhill training.”

The 29-year-old Vonn showed up on the sideline Sunday night for the Kansas City Chiefs-Denver Broncos game with boyfriend Tiger Woods.

Dear Annie: When I married my husband, he was divorced with a college- aged daugh-ter. For some reason or other, she did not complete her degree.

After college, “Connie” got a job and her own apartment. She became pregnant by a co-worker and had a son. Her dad and I were very disappointed. Later, Connie moved to another state and had two more children with the same man, but no marriage. Her dad and I supported her and paid her rent when-ever she needed it. He advised her on the dif-ficulties and disadvan-tages of raising chil-dren without marriage, but she didn’t listen. She moved back home three years before her father died. Her moth-er died two years later.

My 57-year-old step-daughter now lives in her mother’s house. Connie is on dialysis and lives on her dis-ability income. I cook, clean and take her to

the doctor. I also help with the bills.

The problem is, I am now 70 and ready to retire and return to my hometown to spend time with my immedi-ate family. My widowed sister has invited me to live with her. How long am I obligated to sup-port Connie physically and financially? Should I remain here and put my life on hold? -- Had Enough

Dear Had Enough: That’s up to you. You are the only par-ent Connie has, and you’ve stayed relatively close to her through the years. Some par-ents would sacrifice their personal hap-piness to care for a

child, but others reach the point where they become resentful and feel taken advantage of. Can Connie man-age without you? Could you look into available resources in her area for home health care, housekeeping and cooking, and perhaps contribute to the cost? Her children are adults now. It’s time they took over the responsibil-ities you’ve been hand-ling. Talk to them.

Dear Annie: I have been going to the same hairdresser for the past 12 years. Lately, I have received some pretty bad haircuts, and I’ve noticed that the salon is not as clean as it used to be. There is often hair from previ-ous customers on the chair and the floor.

I feel a strong con-nection to my hair-dresser, and we’ve developed a friendship over the years, but I just can’t take another bad hairdo. I’m think-ing of going some-where else, but I don’t

know how to do it. Should I just stop call-ing for appointments, or must I “break up” with her directly? -- Can Hairy Leave Sally?

Dear Hairy: After 12 years, your hairdresser deserves to know why you aren’t returning. Is it possible the salon is having financial dif-ficulties? Might she be ill and unable to do the work she used to? Inquire about her well-being, and then tell her what’s been both-ering you. Give her the opportunity to improve the situation before telling her you feel it is necessary to take your business elsewhere.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Dog-Free Wedding,” whose relative wants to bring her self-trained, poorly behaved “service” dog to the wedding.

I have had a seeing-eye dog for 30 years. My dogs are trained at The Seeing Eye in Morristown, N.J. Those of us who use legitim-ate service dogs, guide

dogs, hearing or other therapy dogs are con-fronting a huge issue: people who train their own dogs and those who get service dog equipment off of the Internet. They dress up their pets as service dogs and bring them into public places.

“Dog-Free” has every right to refuse this person and her ill-behaved dog who was not professionally trained. If this relative has a legitimate dis-ability and needs a dog, she should investigate the proper channels. Otherwise, she is jeop-

ardizing the rights and privileges for which those of us with legit-imately trained dogs have fought for more than 80 years. -- New Germany, Nova Scotia

Step-daughter’s children should take care of her

Leisure

For Thursday, Nov. 21, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) Sit down with a family member today to make long-range plans about home repairs or the family busi-ness. In particular, a female relative will have solid input. TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) Because your powers of concentration are strong today, choose routine work that requires attention to detail. You’ll finish the job and be glad you did. GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Part of you wants to spend money today and part of you doesn’t. Hopefully, by the time the part that wants to spend wakes up, the stores will be closed. Just save your money. CANCER (June 21 to July 22) The Moon is in your sign today, dancing with Saturn and then with lucky Jupiter. However, Saturn rules your

day, which means this is the day to take a sober, realistic view of things. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) An older experienced person, probably a female, might give you some behind-the-scenes tips. By all means, listen because this will save you grief in the future. VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Talk to people who are older and more experienced so you can learn from their mistakes. Someone might give you some guidelines that ultimately change your goals. LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) In discussion with author-ity figures today, you will impress how studious, con-scientious and reliable you are (even if you aren’t). Go with your game face. SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) This is a good day to study. It’s also a good day to make

long-range travel plans. You feel serious about politics and religion. (But you will lighten up by tonight.) SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Tackle red-tape details and clear up some unfin-ished business today. You can get lots done regard-ing inheritances, insurance matters, banking and debt. Just do it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Discussions with a part-ner or close friend will be serious and practical. What you want to know is what is doable and what’s just pie-in-the-sky. (Good to know.) AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You’ll work hard to get things done today because you won’t mind routine work that you usually avoid. You want results.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Parents and teachers can be effective teaching chil-dren today because they have patience and willing-ness to wait for the right answer. Romantic partners might discuss how to tackle practical problems. YOU BORN TODAY You are tasteful, with natural grace and elegance. You also are passionate and sexy. You’re well-informed and on

the cutting edge of what is happening in society. Nevertheless, this some-times put you at odds with traditional family or conser-vative friends. However, you must ultimately find your-self in order to do what you want. This year your strong focus will be on partner-ships and close friendships. Birthdate of: Goldie Hawn, actress; Carly Rae Jepsen, singer; Harold Ramis, director/actor.
