tion Services Society (EKASS) in Cranbrook says it has about 90 methadone clients come through its office — though that doesn’t represent all clients in the region. And the changes are a cause for concern, in that metha-done users may not be aware of the vastly in-creased strength of the new formula.

“There hasn’t been much notification about this,” said Dean Nicholson, Executive Director of EKASS. “And the risk we see is be-cause the volume of medication the people will be receiving will be increasing on a 10 to one basis.

“Typically, when methadone users — or illicit methadone users; people on the street who might be getting it — they’re thinking of it in terms of millilitres in-stead of milligrams. If they’re buying it on the street, they’re saying, ‘I’m not getting as much liquid as I normally would,’ and they might then throw more in there. But they’re actu-ally getting a much higher dosage of the ac-tual drug, which puts them at risk for over-dose and death.

“And, obviously, the illicit street users are not going to be getting the education that hopefully people are going to be getting through supervised dis-penser sites.”

SALLY MACDONALDTownsman Staff

Cory Jarock died of hypothermia after being kicked out of a house party in Invermere in April 2012, according to the prosecution in the trial of Brian

Panebianco.The 25-year-old Invermere man is

charged with manslaughter, criminal negligence causing death, robbery and assault causing bodily harm in the death of 31-year-old Jarock, who

was found deceased April 3, 2012 in the driveway of a home in Invermere’s Tunnacliffe Heights neighbourhood.

The two-week trial got underway Tuesday, Jan. 14 in Cranbrook Su-preme Court before Justice Kenneth

Ball and a 14-person jury, including two alternates.

Crown prosecutor Lynal Doerksen began the evidence by addressing the jury.

Doctors, pharmacies, agencies scrambling to get the word out to clientswho use it are scram-bling to get the word out.

Methadone helps people who are depen-dent on or addicted to

other drugs like mor-phine and heroin. As of Feb. 1, 2014, the current methadone formula given out by pharma-cists will change. British

Columbia will transi-tion to a new metha-done formula, called Methadose, which is ex-pected to provide a safer, more consistent

treatment for patients. But methadose will have 10 times the strength of the current formula.

Love, passion, simplicity: Lopez in concertRenowned guitarist playing the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook, Saturday, Jan. 25.

SubmittedOscar Lopez, one of Can-

ada`s greatest guitarists, will be performing at the Key City Theatre on January 25 at 7:30 pm.

Known for his intimate live performances, Oscar offers a unique flavour of Latin music that incorporates a mix of jazz, blues and pop.

Born in Santiago, Chile to a middle-class family, Oscar was exposed to a wide variety of music from a young age. By age nine he began to experiment with different musical instru-ments, trying the violin, the mandolin and finally settling on the guitar.

A “street learner” Oscar had no formal musical training and developed his craft by per-forming with his father, neigh-bours and friends at the local Pentecostal Church.

By age 12 Oscar had taken a job at a local manufacturer making car antennas. The mo-notony of the job had a strong impact on Oscar who began to dedicate himself to his musical career. By 17 he was playing professionally and getting his

first taste of stardom with Chil-ean pop group The Grace of the King.

In 1979, at 25 Oscar left Chile, which was labouring undering the repression of the Pinochet regime, and joined his sister in Winnipeg.

Eventually making his home in Calgary, Oscar dedi-cated himself to his music — releasing 11 albums over a 23 year span. Professionally he achieved great success with seven Juno Award nomina-tions, winning best instrumen-tal album in both 2002 and 2005 for his albums “Arman-do’s Fire “ and “My Destiny”. Additionally, Oscar is a two-time recipient of the Hispanic Excellence Award and has been recognized as Instru-mentalist of the Year by the Prairie Music Awards.

But the road to success was not without its bumps for Oscar. From 2001 to 2004 he battled major depression side-lining him from preforming live and producing new music.

Since breaking through his bout with depression, Oscar Lopez has rededicated himself

to his music and now lives by the mantra “love, passion, simplicity”. His live perfor-mances are an invitation to a very personal interaction be-tween him and the audience.

“My music is an extension

of my soul and life experienc-es,” Lopez explains. “My al-bums are the product of this internal and external collabo-ration. I revel in the thrill of watching an album take form.”

Methadone is dispensed in a one-milligram-per-millilitre solu-tion that is combined with an or-ange-coloured drink that clients drink at the pharmacy or take away as “carries.” Starting Feb. 1 is Meth-adose. The new formula comes as a red, cherry flavoured solution, pre-prepared. Patients will receive the same dose of methadone, but the amount of liquid will be one-tenth as much as what they receive with the current formula.

A release from the Government of British Columbia on Monday, Jan. 13, noted that “it is important that the public, particularly those who are on methadone mainte-nance therapy, be aware of the changes and take extra caution during this transition.”

EKASS is setting out to do as much public notification as possi-ble.

“Certainly through our office we’re going to be talking to all our clients who are involved in metha-done use,” Nicholson said. “We as-sume their prescribing doctor will be letting them know, but we’ll also be letting them know.

“But also, people who we know who might be inclined to illicit methadone use, we want to make sure we get the word out to them. They may not be as aware of the risk.

There is a third group of metha-done users — those who use it for pain relief, and not because of any

previous drug use.Methadone, in fact, was devel-

oped originally as a painkiller during the 1940s, due to a shortage of morphine during the Second World War. During the 1960s, it was found it was helpful to people with-drawing from opioid addictions, namely heroin.

Nicholson said that because peo-ple who use methadone for pain relief aren’t necessarily as “drug savvy, in a sense,” they may be inad-vertently at risk if they’re not being informed of the changes as well.

“Often, they may be given more ‘carries’ than some of our drug-us-ing clients,” Nicholson said. “Many of our clients who are drug depen-dent may have to do daily pickups. They can’t be trusted with five days worth of carries. But if you’re deal-ing with some kind of chronic pain issues, and you’re on methadone and you’re given a week or two weeks worth of carries at a time, and you’re a bit confused, and might combine them.”

EKASS doesn’t completely man-age those clients who use metha-done for pain. Those clients deal directly with methadone doctors’ offices.

Deb Summers, Harm Reduction Manager at East Kootenay Addic-tions Services, encourages clients to contact her at the office, or their pharmacist or doctor for more in-formation.

This summer there will be a new event coming to Cranbrook in the form of a multicul-tural festival.

Organizers are now planning for the inau-gural multicultural fes-tival in August and will meet Thursday.

“We are calling all persons and organiza-tions who are interest-ed in participating to come forward and join us for our planning meeting,” said Lourdes Roxas-Butalid, presi-dent and founder of the Filipino-Canadian As-sociation of the East Kootenay.

The meeting is at 7

p.m. tomorrow, Thurs-day, Jan. 16, at the city hall boardroom. It is lo-cated at 40 – 10th Ave-nue South.

“It has never been more important to use our cultural differences to bring people togeth-er,” Roxas-Butalid said. “Also, support for the Festival fuels economic growth.”

As a partner, she said businesses would help make Cranbrook a more welcoming place for people from differ-ent origins and cul-tures. She also noted that volunteers, donors and corporate sponsors are vital to the success of the festival.

Roxas-Butalid said

their vision is to pro-mote cultural recogni-tion and respect, as well as celebrate the ethnic diversity of our com-munity.

“Together, we can achieve a more wel-coming city, a new stronger economy, and an empowered com-munity,” she said.

So why should the community get behind the festival? Roxas-Bu-talid said it will be a feel-good event.

She said it’s an op-portunity to link your business or group to a family friendly event with a high standard of programming, positive messaging and creativi-ty.

“Experiencing the performing arts and de-lectable food at the fes-tival empowers, in-spires, astonishes, and educates about Cran-brook’s cultural diversi-ty,” she said. “Demon-strate to your commu-nity, members, clients and employees that you are committed to mak-ing Cranbrook an even more vibrant and dy-namic place to live, work and raise a fami-ly.”

To register for the meeting, please contact Coco Seitz at 250-581-0678 or coco.seitz@gmail.com or Rox-as-Butalid at 250-581-0126 or Lourdes.roxas.butalid@gmail.com.

“This case is a tragic case. It’s something that didn’t have to happen and could easily have been avoided,” he said.

Doerksen went on to summarize the evi-dence he would be pre-senting. He told the jury that two young women invited a group of friends, including Panebianco and Jarock, to a small party on April 2, 2012.

People were drink-ing, Doerksen ex-plained, and Jarock “drank an awful lot”. One of the girls asked Panebianco to deal with Jarock, who had become a nuisance.

“Unfortunately, he did that in a way that is not acceptable,” said Doerksen.

Panebianco assault-ed Jarock, threw him outside and left him there, Doerksen told the jury, adding that the temperature that spring night reached the freez-ing mark.

When Panebianco left the party about 45 minutes later, Jarock was still outside.

Invermere realtor Daniel Zurgilgen was called as a witness to de-scribe what he saw when he drove down the street the next day at about 1 p.m.

Zurgilgen testified that he was turning around in the culdesac on 5th Avenue when he saw a person lying on a driveway. Zurgilgen pulled over and began to approach the person. Jarock was lying on his front with his backside exposed, he wasn’t wearing shoes and his limbs were blue, Zur-gilgen said. He stopped at two metres away from the man and called 911.

A tape of the 911 call was played during the trial. Zurgilgen can be heard talking to the BC Ambulance dispatcher.

“He’s not moving. It’s not looking good,” Zur-gilgen said on the tape.

The paramedic who responded also testified Tuesday that when he arrived on the scene, he checked Jarock’s vital signs and determined that he was deceased.

Two RCMP officers,

one a forensic specialist, also gave evidence about the scene. Cst. Christopher Sheppard was the first RCMP offi-cer to respond. He saw a jacket, two shoes and socks and a baseball cap scattered around the front yard.

Cpl. Eric Page told the court that he found traces of blood on the pavement and on the steps leading to the house, but it was too faint to be tested.

The testimony con-tinues in Cranbrook Su-preme Court this week.

The Know It All

Events in the dead of winter

PAGE 6 WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 15, 2014

Trisha Fermor, a Cranbrook-area resi-dent, said this: “The roads have never been as bad as they are now. Potholes

are a pain in the neck.“There is to nowhere to avoid them.

Coming into Biddenden Road is potential-ly dangerous for cyclists and motorcy-clists.”

Trisha Fermor is actually a resident of Wilsley Pound in Sissinghurst, which — whatever type of community that may be — is in the vicinity of Cranbrook. That’s actually Cranbrook, Kent, England.

Yes, in the parallel uni-verse that Col. James Baker somehow created, they’re complaining about the pot-holes, to such an extent that the publication “This Is Kent” (a compilation of vari-ous Kentish newspapers) did a feature story on the subject, headlined “The Roads Have Never Been So Bad.”

Illustrating the story was a photograph of a jolly English pothole, which I, in the Cranbrook in the alternate universe, looked at with amusement. You call that a pothole?

Back in Kent, the villagers are calling for a crackdown on the holes, all across the Weald. The holes are a menace to the Common Weal! “If a horse was to stumble into one of the caverns that lie on Din-gleden Lane on the way to Sandhurst, their leg would break,” said one parish council-lor. (I wish we had more street names like “Dingleden” in Cranbrook, B.C.).

This is a problem I’ve never considered, that a horse could break his leg in our pot-holes (in Cranbrook, B.C.). The hoofed animals that populate our Cranbrook spring gaily over our holes, or dance nim-bly around them, all the while dodging the traffic. In the meantime, we’re bringing our motorcarriages into shops on a regular basis to replace our suspension systems.

A Kent County councillor says this: “The extreme wet weather will cause pot-holes and we have geared up to tackle this, making permanent, first-time fixes as the first choice repair process.”

Must be nice — if all we had to worry about was the extreme wet weather as cause of the potholes, we’d be on easy street, no pun intended. Instead we have to worry about extreme wet weather followed by extremely cold weather. That situation doesn’t just create potholes, it creates rift valleys. This, coupled with the fact that

Cranbrook (B.C.) is one of the last great towns to be built on a swamp, replete with underground streams galore, makes us the frost heave capital of the west-ern world, which is the real reason, I swear, that

horses no longer patrol our streets. Don’t want them stepping in our potholes and breaking their legs, innit?

The aforementioned parish councillor says: “The lanes around here are very thin so when the water comes down, it breaks up the road.”

Really? Your quaint, delicate little streets break apart under a little rain? Our tough, hardy western streets are torn asun-der by the kind of frost heave that flings up mountain ranges. That’s what created the Rocky Mountains, you know. Frost heave! I swear it’s true!

Workmen from Kent Highways have been working to repair damage caused to roads in Cranbrook, Kent. The mayor of Cranbrook, B.C., said at the RDEK meeting Friday that workmen from Cranbrook (B.C.) spent as much time last winter re-pairing potholes as they did removing snow from our very unKentish streets.

The Kentish councillor said this: “On occasion we will make a temporary repair until a permanent one can be programmed

in. We are committed to repairing these within 28 days.”

Ha ha! “Permanent…” Last year I noted a very bad pothole in a Cranbrook, B.C., neighbourhood. The City came out and repaired it right away — including a full-on repatch. A few months later, a new pothole had appeared, in a different spot of the in-tersection, like a bad case of eczema re-erupting on a troubled patch of skin.

Trisha Fermor of Wilsley Pound says: “The problem lies with Kent County Coun-cil not having enough money. Cuts have meant they just don’t have the resources to patch up the roads.”

Hmmm, where have I heard that be-fore? But since the subject has come up, I will publicly suggest here that a far more efficient use of the money spent patching up roads in Cranbrook, B.C., may be to in-vest in an inventory of flying cars, which could be sold to the residents of Cranbrook at cost, thus taking everyone’s minds off the Cranbrook potholes fully, completely.

As for the residents of Cranbrook, Kent; if you’re not amenable to the idea of flying cars, or potholes as a rather permanent state of affairs — indeed, something to hold up as an emblem of civic pride, as I am attempting to do here, with varying degrees of success, I think — or a symbol of the awesome power of nature over which no amount of county funds can perma-nently fix, then I suggest replacing your community’s horses with more surefooted mules.

Or, to put the above 700 words another way: Potholes? You call those potholes?

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

Five members of the Koote-nay Ice made the mid-season NHL Central Scouting rank-ings released on Monday, with Sam Reinhart occupying the highest spot at fourth overall of the North American skaters category.

The Kootenay Ice captain was surpassed only by Sam Bennett (Kingston Frontenacs, OHL), Leon Draisaitl (Prince Albert Raiders, WHL) and Aaron Ekblad (Barrie Colts, OHL).

Reinhart is currently in Cal-gary, where he will showcase his skills in front of NHL brass at the CHL BMO Top Prospects game on Wednesday evening. Reinhart was named captain of Team Cherry while Ekblad will

lead Team Orr in a game that features the best talent across the CHL.

While it’s no surprise that Reinhart is in the top of the Central Scouting rankings, other Kootenay Ice players have also made the scouts sit up and take notice.

Import defenceman Rinat Valiev, who cracked the same lists last season, was ranked 106th, while Jaedon Deschene-au and Luke Philp were sepa-rated by only three at 122nd and 125th, respectively.

Despite his long-term inju-ry, Tanner Faith still has some NHL interest under the Limit-ed Viewing category, joining other injured players such as Joe Hicketts (Victoria Royals) and Taylor Vickerman (Tri-City Americans).

Valiev has been a solid ad-dition to the blue line since his arrival in October, where he’s contributed three goals and collected 13 assists.

Valiev, who attended an NHL camp with the Dallas Stars in September, adds some size to the blue line and has settled into a steady role with the team.

Descheneau leads the Ice in goal production at 28, and sits in sixth place in the WHL scor-ing race with 57 points.

“Yesterday morning, I didn’t even know the rankings were coming out,” said Descheneau. “It’s nice and an honour, now I just have to play well and move myself up in the rankings.”

Philp agreed, noting it was the first time he’s cracked the Central Scouting lists.

He has had a solid season, stepping up to the top line while Reinhart left for the World Junior Championship. Philp has tallied 15 goals and 29 assists for 44 points this sea-son, needing only one more to surpass his 2012-13 total.

“All in all, I’m just happy to see that my name was on the list and happy for the other guys who where named, too,” Philp said.

Even though they’re all happy to see themselves indi-vidually ranked, there is still a lot of work to be done as a team leading up and into play-offs.

“I’m just worried about the team here and going far in the playoffs and whatever happens on draft day, happens,” said Descheneau.

Five Ice players crack NHL scouting rankings

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

After the flu deci-mated the Dynamiters over their weekend road trip, the team got enough healthy bodies back in the lineup to grind out a 4-1 win over the Columbia Valley Rockies on Tuesday night on home ice.

Jason Richter, Dar-ren Martin, Bryce Per-pelitz and Eric Buckley provided offence for the Nitros, while Stephen Pratt scored the lone goal for the Rockies.

“In the first period, we kind of had tired legs, but as the game wore on, I thought, defi-nitely, our conditioning outmatched CV’s for sure,” said Martin, the Dynamiters captain.

In the second half of the first period, Buckley struck first on a break-away, beating Rockies goaltender Stewart Pratt up high on the glove side with a shot.

Heading into the second period, the Ni-tros were the first to kick off the parade to the penalty box. Tyler Kinnon was hit with a four-minute double

minor and Jared Marchi got tagged for goalten-der interference, and the Rockies were gifted with a two-man advan-tage for just over three minutes.

Stephen Pratt made good on the ensuing powerplay, scoring Co-lumbia Valley’s lone goal to even it up at 1-1.

However, the tide began to change and soon it was the Rockies who were heading to the box and the Nitros made them pay when Perpelitz teed up from the blue line and blast-ed a slap shot home.

A few minutes later, Columbia Valley’s goal-tender Stewart Pratt went down with a Nitro player on top of him. The goalie landed a couple blows with his blocker before getting hit with a match penal-ty and game miscon-duct.

Martin quarter-backed the powerplay and was rewarded with a goal when he unload-ed on the net at the blue line.

“I think our puck re-trieval was good and we had some good shots,” said Dynamiters head coach Jerry Bancks, on the effectiveness of the powerplay. “Perp’s goal was just a rocket, Mar-ty’s was a rocket.

“We need to do more of that—score from the point on the powerplay. We’re afraid to shoot, I

don’t know why, so it was good that it hap-pened and hopefully we can learn from it.”

More shenanigans came in the third peri-od, in the form of more game ejections, as a pair of Rockies players got tossed for head con-tact.

Richter scored on another Nitro man-ad-vantage for a three goal lead with just over five minutes remaining in the game.

Tyson Brouwer stood in goal for the Dy-namiters, making 31 saves for the win, while Pratt and Brody Nelson shared netminding du-ties, with 27 collective saves.

Having a mostly healthy roster was a welcome change for the team after hitting the road this past weekend with a busload of sick players.

“It meant a lot to have most of our play-

ers back, we still have a couple out—and we still had some playing, they’re not 100 per cent,” said Bancks.

“…It’s going to be nice to get everybody healthy. We need to get through this weekend, then we’re back to our normal schedule.

“You can tell we’ve only practiced twice since Christmas. We were pretty sloppy. It was an ugly win, but we’ll take it.”

Raonic advances to second round at Australian OpenMELBOURNE, Australia - Milos Raonic began

his Australian Open with a 7-6 (2), 6-1, 4-6, 6-2 de-feat of Spain’s Daniel Gimeno-Traver on Tuesday to reach the second round in sweltering temperatures.

Raonic, the 11th seed from Thornhill, Ont., was tested for nearly two and a half hours in the de-manding heat that hovered just above 40 C.

The heat was even too much for one of the ball kids, who had to leave the court in the middle of the match.

Raonic finally put away the victory on his fifth match point against an opponent ranked 77th in a first-time meeting.

Canadian qualifier Frank Dancevic felt the heat as he was treated on court trailing 4-2 in the second set before eventually going down to France’s Benoit Paire 7-6 (14-12), 6-3, 6-4.

Dancevic said he started feeling faint and was stretched out on court with a doctor, trainers and ambulance personnel in attendance.

But the Niagara Falls, Ont., native recovered and soldiered on, wisely donning a white cap and finish-ing the match.

Raonic took the victory with 21 aces, striking 48 winners and breaking on 7-of-20 chances. The 23-year-old was frustrated as he tried to close out the contest but finally got the job done when he broke the Spaniard’s serve.

He’ll join compatriots Eugenie Bouchard, from Montreal, and Vancouver’s Vasek Pospisil, who won their first-round matches on Monday.

Canada’s cross-country skiers on track to make the

podium at Sochi GamesCALGARY - Canada’s cross-country ski team is

poised to make Olympic history next month.While Canadian women have stood on the Olym-

pic podium in the sport, a Canadian man never has.Led by Alex Harvey of St-Ferreol-les-Neiges,

Que., and Devon Kershaw of Sudbury, Ont., that drought could end on the Psekhako Ridge in Sochi, Russia.

The hard goal of Canada’s cross-country team is to claim at least two medals in Sochi. It’s the men who have the best chance at winning them this time.

The 11 skiers who’ll represent Canada in Sochi were introduced Tuesday at an elementary school with six being present for the announcement. Har-vey, Kershaw, Ivan Babikov of Canmore, Alta., Daria Gaiazova of Banff, Alta., and Perianne Jones of Al-monte, Ont., were in Europe and en route to a World Cup event in Poland.

Chandra Crawford and Jesse Cockney of Can-more, Toronto’s Lenny Valjas, Graeme Killick of Fort McMurray, Alta., Heidi Widmer of Banff and Emily Nishikawa of Whitehorse will join their teammates in Italy next week for pre-Games training.

daily townsman / daily Bulletin

Dear Annie: I’m a divorced woman who was married to a self-centered man for 30 years. He often told me that if I thought there was something better out there to not let the door hit me on the way out. I finally took him up on it, and it turned out to be the best ad-vice he ever gave me.

For the past three years, I’ve been dating “Ted,” also divorced. He is smart and suc-cessful, and we are perfect together in every way. Here is the problem: Ted is not ready to marry. He told me his marriage ended be-cause there was no passion. He fears if we live together, the physical attraction we feel for each other will die.

Ted and I spend weekends together and travel often, but then he goes home to his house. I don’t want to live alone for the rest of my life. But if Ted isn’t ready after three years, I doubt he ever will be. His reluctance hurts me deeply and brings back all those feelings of unworthiness from my marriage. Is it time for me to walk? -- Thought I’d Found the One

Dear Thought: Ted may be skittish about commitment, but that is his issue, and he is making it yours. Some women are perfectly content with a no-strings relationship with someone they find compatible. But if you are looking for marriage, you will have to set Ted free and look elsewhere. We realize you have put a lot of effort, energy and emotion into this relationship, but if the end result makes you unhappy and anxious, Ted is not the right person for you.

Dear Annie: I must reply to all the moth-ers-in-law who write to you and can’t un-derstand why they are treated so unfairly by their daughters-in-law. My mother-in-law has been incredibly mean to me from the first time I met her. She deliberately does not include me in many of the family functions. She promises my children outings and never follows through. She and her daughter have been the nightmares of my life.

This has gone on for years now, and I would rather not have any contact with them. My husband feels I should “be the better person” and just ignore their behav-ior. But, Annie, I can only do this for so long before the better course is to simply walk away. -- The Other Side of the Story

Dear Other Side: Has your husband stood up for you with his family? Does he say, “My wife must be invited to these family func-tions, or I will not attend”? Does he tell his mother that the children no longer believe her promises and it hurts her relationship with them? If he thinks sweeping Mom’s behavior under the rug will make things better, he is mistaken. It is cowardly. Mom will learn to respect you as a member of her family if her son makes it clear to her that this is not optional and there are clear con-sequences. We cannot guarantee that she will change her tune, but we can absolutely assure you that if your husband does not do these things, nothing will ever improve and you are right to limit contact.

Dear Annie: “Tired of Doing All the Holi-day Planning” said she is going to stop host-ing family holiday dinners because no one helps her clean up.

In our home and those of our friends, the cook does not clean up. Everyone else does. “Tired” should tell her kids and grandkids to clear, wash, dry and put the dishes away. If Dad is in the picture, he should pitch in, too.

Some of my fondest times involve the ca-maraderie when my buddies and I clean up after one of our wives’ meals. (We are lousy cooks.) Guys need to get with the program and show their wives they appreciate the ef-fort of putting the meal together. -- Helpful Husband

ARIES (March 21-April 19) The Full Moon could affect your mood. You might want to ex-ercise your “kiss and make up” technique, especially with a close associate. You might feel as though you’re between a rock and a hard place. Express your thoughts openly and kindly. Tonight: Relax at home.TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Consider opening up to new possibilities that emerge in discussions. You might be quite surprised by what occurs. You could feel overwhelmed by ev-erything that happens. You sim-ply need to take in the moment and not make a commitment right now. Tonight: Play it easy.GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Be aware of expenses that keep arising. You might want to rethink your budget. The possi-bility exists that you might need to give up an indulgence. A little self-discipline will go far at this point. Know that you are capa-ble of nearly anything. Tonight:

Balance your checkbook.CANCER (June 21-July 22) Today’s Full Moon puts you di-rectly in the spotlight. As a re-sult, you’ll be able to maximize the lunar energy in your favor. Interpersonal relating will be highlighted. Seize the moment to act on an important matter. Tonight: Whatever makes you happy.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)A dispute suddenly could break out. Someone might misread your attitude. Make a point to clarify your thoughts. A serious but important conversation will stabilize the situation. Note how this person gets when he or she is upset. Tonight: Get some extra R and R.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You know when you overspend. You might feel as if you have made a commitment and have little to no choice but to fol-low through. How you handle this matter will be important, but probably not as important as you think. Tonight: Where crowds are.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might feel as if you must act a certain way, and you could be irritated to be in that position right now. Do not fight the in-evitable. You’ll want to balance the different aspects of your life. Tonight: Out till the wee hours.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)Your sense of what to do might involve testing out your ideas on someone who is more knowledgeable than you on the topic. On some level, you could discover how easily irritated this makes you feel. Walk away from a difficult or volatile situation. Tonight: Go with the flow.SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Relate to a partner or key asso-ciate directly in order to avoid a volatile situation. A friend still might be less than agreeable because of a sudden change of plans. Make a point not to lose your temper, and you will be OK. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)Avoid a potentially touchy sit-uation by deferring to others. Consider what is more import-ant: keeping the peace or being

right. Demonstrate compassion toward a partner or loved one. This person could be feeling insecure with today’s Full Moon. Tonight: Sort through ideas.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Someone could take advantage of your caring nature. You might feel hurt, or perhaps you’ll just feel sorry for this person. In any case, pull back and be more discriminating when it comes to your inner circle of friends. To-night: Head home, and squeeze in some exercise.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You might feel pulled in two different directions. Your friends really enjoy having you around, yet a child or loved one could express some neediness. You likely will try to juggle all of these concerns. As a result, a partner could become impa-tient. Tonight: Take a midweek break. BORN TODAYCivil-rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. (1929), playwright Mo-liere (1622), actor Lloyd Bridges (1913)***

Anne Wiens

1928 - 2014

Mrs. Anne Wiens (nee Schellenberg) of Cranbrook, BC, passed away peacefully on Friday, January 10, 2014 surrounded by her loving family at the age of 85.

Anne was born in Dundurn, Saskatchewan on December 10th, 1928, and grew up on the family

farm near Coaldale, AB. Her faith in the Lord led her to attend Mennonite Bible Institute in Didsbury, AB where she forged many lifelong friendships. She later met the love of her life, Henry Wiens, while working in Calgary, and they married in 1952. Henry & Anne were soon blessed with 3 children before finally moving to Cranbrook in 1967, where their 4th child was born.

Anne adored being a wife, mother and homemaker. She possessed a simple and joyful grace that seemed to bring out the best in everyone, in every situation. Her bubbly laugh and sense of humour was always uplifting, and her steadfast faith in her Savior Jesus Christ was an inspiration to all who knew her.

Anne was avid bowler in the local womens’ league for many years. She enjoyed travelling, gardening, sewing, knitting, reading, and going for coffee with her many friends. Since moving to Cranbrook, Henry & Anne have been active members of First Baptist Church, and later, the Knox Presbyterian Church. She loved to sing and was active in the church choir up until her passing.

She is survived by her loving husband Henry, her four children Dan (Charlene) of Surrey, BC, Dyan (Ken) Thayer of Spokane, WA, Donna (Greg) Pascuzzo and Jamie of Cranbrook; her five grandchildren, Jenny (Marco) Guzzo, Sarah Maglio, Jake Whiteley, Jeff and Brock Pascuzzo; and her brother John Schellenberg of Calgary, AB. A memorial service will be held at Knox Presbyterian Church on Saturday, January 18th at 11:00 am. In lieu of flowers, those wishing to remember Anne in a special way may do so with donations to the Mennonite Central Committee at: MCCBC, Box 2038, Abbotsford, BC, V2T 3T8.

Arrangements entrusted to McPherson Funeral Service. Condolences for the family can be offered at:
