NATURAL FACTORS NIACINSince the 1950s, Niacin (vitamin B3) has been known to lower blood cholesterol and triglyceride levels. In fact, in numerous clinical studies Niacin has demonstrated better overall results in reducing risk factors for coronary heart disease than other cholesterol-lowering agents, including statin drugs.Many people are reluctant to use Niacin because at the dosing levels recommended to lower cholesterol, it causes a hot, itchy skin reaction known as the “Niacin flush”. Niacin has been shown to lower the levels of LDL (bad) cholesterol as well as the levels of the more harmful Lp(a) lipoprotein, triglycerides, and inflammatory markers (C-reactive protein, fibrinogen, etc.) while simultaneously raising HDL (good) cholesterol levels. Niacin reduces LDL cholesterol by restricting the liver’s production of VLDL, a precursor to LDL cholesterol, while increasing the particle size of LDL cholesterol from the smaller, more dangerous dense form, to a larger more innocuous form that is less associated with coronary artery disease. This form of Niacin is a cutting edge intermediate release FLUSH FREE Niacin which gradually releases Niacin over a 6–8 hour period and rivals prescription drugs for lowering LDL cholesterol. SISU ESTER-CSisu Ester-C is an extra-strength Vitamin C with bioflavonoids, to get you through cold and flu season, and the allergy months. Vitamin C is best known for strengthening the immune system. Studies have shown that 5000mg of Vitamin C can double the rate of key activities of white blood cells, the soldiers of the immune system. Ester-C is made from calcium ascorbate formulated through a patented process so that it neutralizes intestinal acids and can therefore be absorbed without discomfort. It also contains a form of calcium, which enhances absorption.The use of Quercetin (a bioflavonoid) in Ester-C 1000, makes this the ideal immune support for individuals who cannot tolerate citrus. Bioflavonoids are potent antioxidants found in plants and enhance the immune-supporting function of Vitamin C!Sisu Buy One, Get One Free Ester-C 1000, 120 tablets Reg.

super-sized, pleasant tasting formula.

Why you should consider a LIQUID multivitamin supplement. Many experts now believe that consuming vitamin supplements in liquid form is substantially more benefi cial than relying on solid pills-a belief that is supported by research studies: “liquid supplements contain the nutrients in a more highly bioavailable form, are gentler to the stomach, and sometimes are more suitable than solid supplements, especially for children and elderly patients.”The liquid advantageA liquid multivitamin supplement offers a number of benefi ts over solid forms for people of all ages, but especially for older adults or those with known digestive issues. Among the benefi ts are the following:• Liquids are quickly and readily absorbed, as they do not fi rst need to be broken down.

• Liquids contain no fi llers, binders or coatings that may interfere with proper dissolution.

• Liquids are fully dissolved upon ingestion, and allow for absorption of key nutrients along the entire gastrointestinal tract.

• Liquids are a welcome alternative for people who have trouble swallowing solid pills, particularly children, the elderly and those who are ill or convalescing.

• Due to enhanced absorption of nutrients, liquids may allow for lower general dosing than with solid pills.

Kimberley cull done after traps damagedInvermere deer advocate charged in Kimberley trap tampering incident

S a l ly M ac D o n a l D a n D c a ro lyn G r a n t

Kimberley’s 2014 cull of 30 mule deer is effectively over as four of the five clover traps being used were van-dalized and damaged on February 27.

Devin Kazakoff, a founder of the Inver-mere Deer Protection Society, is one of two men charged over alle-gations of deer trap tampering in Kimber-ley last week.

Kazakoff and anoth-er man, Lucky Gene Sikora, appeared before a Judicial Justice of the Peace in Cranbrook on

Thursday, Feb. 27 on charges of mischief, and disguising the face with intent to commit an offence.

They were released from custody and will next appear in Cran-brook Criminal Court on May 20 to consult legal counsel.

They were released with a $1,000 bail under a number of strict con-ditions which include: not to enter the City of Kimberley; not to be within 500 metres of a Ministry of Forests or Ministry of Environ-ment office or facility in B.C.; not to be within

500 metres of any law-ful deer trap facility; to report to a bail supervi-sor and abide by a cur-few from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.

According to RCMP, two men were arrested early on Feb. 27 after they were observed damaging a deer trap in Kimberley and fleeing the scene on foot and then in a vehicle.

Police tracked the vehicle to a side road south of Kimberley and took the two men into custody.

A police dog found netting from traps near-by, and a search of the

vehicle found items po-lice believe were used to tamper with the traps. Four traps in total were damaged.

Kazakoff ’s Inver-mere Deer Protection Society sued the Dis-trict of Invermere in 2012, claiming that council failed to prop-erly consult residents before deciding to carry out a deer cull.

The civil suit was de-feated in B.C. Supreme Court last November. That same month, In-vermere voted to go ahead with deer culls in a referendum, with 74 per cent in favour of the deer management strategy.

The Invermere Deer Protection Society is a member of the B.C. Deer Protection Coali-tion, which has been outspoken against culls

in Cranbrook, Kimber-ley and Invermere. The Animal Alliance of Can-ada is also a member of the Coalition.

Earlier this month, 10 clover traps were stolen from a govern-ment compound in Cranbrook. Police

Devin Kazakoff, a founder of the Invermere Deer Protection Society.

found seven of the traps in bush nearby but six had been destroyed in a fire. Three remain miss-ing. No arrests have been made in the Feb. 9 incident.

Mayor Ron McRae said with only one trap left, the cull is over.

“We can’t do an ef-fective cull without suf-ficient traps. In effect the cull is done. The permit will run out and we will not seek an ex-tension.”

McRae said that with the traps damaged in Cranbrook after a break in to the government yard in February, he didn’t believe there were any other traps left.

He did not say how many deer had been culled before the traps were damaged.

Cranbrook is a town of many entrepreneur-ial women, something recognized by the Forum for Women En-trepreneurs (FWE). The forum is hoping to at-tract more women en-trepreneurs from places like Cranbrook and is offering, in partnership with Teck Resources, is offering grants of $2,500 to women entrepre-neurs seeking mentor-ship and support to grow their business. The deadline for grant application is March 10.

Lisa Niemetscheck, general manager of the Forum for Women En-trepreneurs, said there is particular interest in having Cranbrook women attend this year as Teck Resources noted many viable business opportunities in the city for emerging female entrepreneurs.

The $2,500 grant goes towards travel and admission to the four day FWE ESeries pro-gram in Vancouver. The program connects emerging entrepre-neurs with successful veterans to gain insight into growth plans, mar-keting, HR, sales, cul-ture and other chal-lenges that arise while

creating a viable busi-ness. There are 15 grants available.

The program runs from April 8-11.

“This year we’re re-ally trying to expand the reach of our pro-gram,” Niemetscheck said. “The last 12 years we’ve been running it in Vancouver and for the most part it’s been women from the Lower Mainland in it.”

Then last year they condensed the pro-gram from a six month weekly meet to an in-tense four day forum.

She said this year they want to attract more women from places like Cranbrook.

The FWE is a Van-couver-based not-for-profit organization founded in 2002.

“What we’ve been doing for the last 12 years is providing edu-cation, mentorship and empowerment to women entrepreneurs,” she said.

The program is for women who already have businesses, but don’t yet have the edu-cation or connections to further grow their businesses.

“This could be someone who either started a company a year ago to someone who has been in busi-ness for 15, 20 years,” she said.

The classes are usu-ally as small as 15 to 20 people.

Niemetscheck said participating in the forum bodes well for businesses, as 89 per cent of companies that attended the series are still in business, com-pared to the national average of 50 per cent of businesses. The pro-gram also includes 14 months of mentorship and an FWE year mem-bership.

Townsman sTaffCranbrook Commu-

nity Theatre is taking on the predicament of the outsider in its upcoming comedy “The Foreign-er,” opening April 3 at 7:30 pm at the Studio/Stagedoor Theatre in Cranbrook.

“The Foreigner” is the winner of two Obie Awards, Best New American Play and Best Off-Broadway Produc-tion. It’s an uproariously inspired comedy that celebrates our curiosity and empathy for the outsider. Canadian Charlie Baker, self pro-claimed “world’s dullest man,” takes a vacation at a rural fishing lodge in the state of Georgia, with his eccentric French Canadian Army buddy, Froggy LeSueur. Froggy concocts an out-rageous scheme to save Charlie from his patho-logically shy self by in-troducing him as an ex-otic “foreigner” who can’t speak English.

It isn’t long before Charlie’s guileless per-

sona backfires and the mix of good hearted, slow-witted, and devi-ous lodge guests share their deepest secrets and most sinister plans. What ensues is a series of hilarious and heart-warming revelations, which leads to the ulti-mate good guys vs. bad guys climax.

The Cranbrook Community Theatre production is directed by David Stock, who has done many plays for them in the past. It has a great cast and crew fea-turing such well known performers as Jeff Coo-per, Jennifer Inglis, Marge Kemp, Jerrod Bondy, Barry Coulter, Sean Swinwood, Mitch-ell Graw, Harrison Ford, and Sean Cloarec.

The play runs April 3 to 5, 9 to 12, and 16 to 19th at the Studio/Stagedoor Theatre on 11th Avenue. Note the start time of 7:30 for all the performances.

Mark the dates on your calendar for a very funny evening out.

It was quite a sur-prise to fans of 90s hip hop when local HM Pro-ductions announced that in March it would be bringing Bone Thugs-n-Harmony to play a St. Patrick’s Day show.

According to the Bone Thugs-n-Harmo-ny website, the show is the only other Canada show apart from Cal-gary.

Isaac Hockley, one of the owners of HM Pro-ductions, said they deal with a number of agen-cies that present options for shows as they come up.

“That was the one that stood out,” Hockley said. “When people heard about it they laughed — it’s kind of humorous right? I mean it’s the Bone Thugs.”

Bone Thugs-n-Har-mony have recently re-leased a new album.

“It’s 90s rap — it’s not new age that’s for sure,” he said, adding that he agreed it would a bit of a blast from the past.

“I’m almost 30 and that’s what we used to listen to in high school. I grew up listening to them. They were huge in the 90s and even in our grad year, we used them for our grad song.”

Meet at the Crossroads, Bone Thugs coming to town

doing pretty well al-ready,” he said.

On March 13, HM Productions will be bringing in the Real McKenzies.

Hockley the band was the first concert he ever went to so he’s pretty excited about them coming here.

“We skipped school. I was 17, we just got our licences, and they were opening up for Rise Against in Calgary,” he said. “We saw them and they were actually better than Rise Against.”

He said he had an opportunity to see them last year in Nelson and they still “kill it” on stage.

“That’s kind of our St. Patrick’s Day Party,” he said. “The Real McKen-zies, they’re pretty wild on stage. They are known for being kind of a rock punk show with kelps and bagpipes and fiddles. They are a seven piece band. As soon as I

That song was “The Crossroads” from 1996.

“It’s kind of fitting too, because we’ve had a few close friends pass away in the last few months here and it’s kind of hit Cranbrook pretty hard in our age category,” he said.

“So that was another reason when we saw the Bone Thugs thing — ‘Crossroads’ is their number one song and it’s to their fallen friend. It will be cool to see them play that song live for sure.”

Hockley said that when he got the call from their agency, it worked out that it land-ed on St. Patrick’s Day. He said otherwise he would never plan a Monday night show. “Ticket sales are actually

had an option of bring-ing those guys in I had to jump on it.”

He said personally he is more excited about The Real McKenzies.

Tickets for the March 13 show are $15.

Tickets for Bone Thugs-n-Harmony on March 17 are $25.

Both shows are at the Eagle’s Hall.

“The nice thing about this is we signed a contract with the Eagle’s Hall because they need-ed more stuff going on in there,” he said. “When we signed the contract the idea was to help them out.”

He said the shows are more about fun for the community than a money making venture. They will be bringing in six acts in the next half year.

“We’re excited, we have some really good ideas fro bands coming in,” he said.

Bone Thugs-n-harmony featuring Wish Bone and Krayzie Bone will be play-ing St. Patrick’s Day on March 17 at the eagle’s hall in Cranbrook.

Letters to the editorCranbrook transit

The importance of the transit system in Cranbrook needs to be brought to atten-tion immediately.

I myself take the bus everyday for school and other errands. While taking the bus, I can attest firsthand how import-ant the transit system is to our communi-ty. I see many mothers and fathers with strollers, disabled people with walkers and wheelchairs, many students, and the elderly who rely on the bus their every day mode of transportation.

The elderly in our community are the foundation of Cranbrook and deserve the respect from this city, and the freedom to retain their dignity and independence by having their own way of getting around in their daily lives when driving their vehi-cles is no longer a safe option—the city bus.

Seniors are only the first of several groups who use the transit system in their everyday lives. Mothers with strollers also require taking the buses, not only in the summer, but in the more dominant winter

season as well. In Cranbrook, the side-walks are often difficult to navigate with the snow and ice hindering a safe passage to their destinations.

Along with mothers and their strollers, people who are in wheelchairs, walkers, or use canes also rely on public transportation for their personal independence and ev-eryday use. There are college students — local and international — who need the bus to get to and from the school. The list of people and reasons why the transit system is imperative to Cranbrook, go on and on.

Perhaps a reminder to the city council is required to further demonstrate how important the bus service is to the people of Cranbrook of every walks of life and why.

Information taken from “Mountains of Opportunity Cranbrook” on Cranbrook.ca shows how widespread Cranbrook is be-coming. The population (city proper): 19,319 (based on 2011 Stat Canada Cen-sus). The population (Cranbrook and sur-rounding rural areas): 25,753. Service Population (within 150-km drive):73,000 (approx.) Area of Municipality (2011):

31.95 square km.In other words, Cranbrook is growing

and is constantly attracting visitors from all over the world to explore Cranbrook; some even choose to remain for an educa-tion at our beautiful College of the Rock-ies.

To remove or even reduce the transit service would hinder people in Cranbrook tremendously, for this city has become too widespread for those unable to walk, to navigate the entire perimeter.

Furthermore, it would demonstrate that those who wish to make careless changes to a vital part of Cranbrook have absolutely no idea of its importance.

Of course, those with vehicles would not be affected either way. Why should they care, right? Those persons who whine and complain about the transit system obviously have no idea of just how import-ant the buses are to Cranbrook.

Please leave the transit system alone; those without a vehicle need it.

SubmittedCranbrook residents

will share their opin-ions with each other and with Mayor Wayne Stetski and council at a community conversa-tion evening on March 13, at the Heritage Inn from 6:30 to 9 p.m.

A lively and infor-mal format is planned, with facilitated round table discussions about what key issues Cran-brook citizens want to explore, what informa-tion they need, and how to get everyone engaged in the munici-

pal election this fall.“I’m looking for-

ward to participating,” said Mayor Stetski. “This is a great chance to have an informal, but meaningful, con-versation about which issues are top of mind in Cranbrook, and how

we can encourage peo-ple to get involved both in the business of our city and in the upcom-ing municipal elec-tion.”

The Association of Kootenay and Bound-ary Local Governments (AKBLG) is working

with three communi-ties —Cranbrook, Grand Forks and Fruit-vale — to offer these community conversa-tions. Results will be shared with all mem-bers at the AKBLG an-nual general meeting in April.

It’s a “treacherous attack” and a “dirty conspiracy,” claimed Turkish prime min-ister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, whose image as a devout Muslim and an honest man is the key to his political success. But he didn’t deny that the voice on the record-ings was his, nor that the other voice was that of his son Bilal. He explained the phone-calls by saying that they were a “shameless montage” of various things that he and his son had said in other, quite innocent conversations.

The four telephone conversations allegedly took place on 17 December, the same day that the Turkish police arrested the sons of three cabinet members in Erdogan’s government for corruption, bribery and tender-rigging. This might easily have caused some alarm in the families of other cabinet members, especially since the dawn raids also uncovered large sums of money whose presence in the sons’ houses was hard to explain.

In the alleged phone calls on 17 De-cember, the prime minister is asking his son Bilal to dispose of millions of euros in cash that are currently sitting in a house somewhere. Bilal is to entrust the money to several businessmen for safekeeping, and make sure that none is left in the house. In the first 24 hours after somebody posted these conversations on social media, they got 1.5 million hits.

Now, if the calls are genuine, they were probably recorded by people who knew the arrests were going to happen on that day. (It’s unlikely that anybody was tap-

ping Bilal’s phone all the time, and it’s too hard to tap a prime minister’s phone.) So there is definitely a plot to hurt Prime Minister Erdogan – but it might be a plot whose weapon is the truth.

Here we have either a panic-stricken prime minister instructing his son to hide the evidence of massive corruption — or a “shameless montage” that strings bits of innocent conversation together to lead people to a false conclusion that slanders

the prime min-ister. Which is it?

Well, it all sounds pretty normal to me. What son has not had occa-sion from time

to time to tell his father that there are still 30 million euros to be removed from the house? What father does not sometimes have to warn his son not to go into details on the phone, as the line may be tapped? But some people have nasty, suspicious minds.

The phone calls are just the latest epi-sode in a cascade of events that has shred-ded the carefully constructed image of Erdogan’s government, which has won three elections in eleven years with steadi-ly increasing majorities. The trigger for these events, according to most observers, was a bitter but unexplained split between Erdogan and his erstwhile friend and po-litical ally, the Islamic cleric Fethullah Gulen.

Gulen, who lives in self-imposed exile in the United States, leads a conservative religious movement known as Hizmet (Service). It has millions of followers, and its help is seen as vital in Erdogan’s elec-tion victories. The split between Erdogan and Gulen is allegedly due to the latter’s criticism of official corruption in large construction and real estate projects – and Hizmet is said by critics to be particularly influential among the judiciary and the police.

Erdogan certainly saw the arrests on 17 December as a direct attack by Gulen on his authority. He immediately retaliated by dismissing the senior officers on the Istanbul police force who ran the financial crime, organised crime, smuggling and anti-terrorist departments. The purge rap-idly grew until some 2,000 senior police officers across the country had been fired, suspended or moved to traffic duty.

Erdogan has had too much power for too long and he has become arrogant and reckless, but few people could have fore-seen that he would end up involved in such a massive corruption scandal. Nor is his response to the crisis reassuring: firing policemen, hobbling judges and prosecu-tors, and blaming it all on “dark circles” of plotters.

This is not the behaviour of an inno-cent man facing unjust accusations. It is the behaviour of a cornered rat.

Two out of three isn’t too bad.

The Kootenay Ice re-turned from their last major road trip of the season with two wins and one loss after head-ing into the Prairies for a trio of games in Sas-katchewan.

The Ice beat the Warriors 5-1 on Wednesday, then downed the Blades 4-2 on Friday, only to lose by the same score to the Prince Albert Raiders.

Missing the score-sheet against the Raid-ers, Ice captain Sam Re-inhart streak has ended, setting a new franchise record at 22 games with

either a goal or an as-sist. At 15 games, he also now owns the fran-chise record streak for assists.

After scoring the first two goals of the game, Kootenay gave up the next four as Prince Al-bert completed a come-back in the second and third periods.

Zach McPhee and Levi Cable gave the Ice a 2-0 lead, but Dakota Conroy and Carson Per-reaux tied it up after 40 minutes.

Leon Draitsaitl, a highly touted prospect for June’s NHL draft, scored the go-ahead goal early in the final frame, and Reid Gar-diner added some in-

surance with 3:19 re-maining in the game.

Mackenzie Skapski took the loss in goal, making 23 saves, while Nick McBride picked up the win with 25 stops.

Always a low-penal-ized game between the two teams this season, Perreaux served the only minor infraction whistled down all game,

which Kootenay failed to capitalize on.

It was a bit of a re-verse situation the night before in Saskatoon, where the Blades opened the scoring with a pair of goals, before the Ice roared back by scoring four in a row to pick up the win.

Cam Hebig and Gra-ham Millar scored two quick goals for a 2-0 lead for the Blades be-fore Tim Bozon put Kootenay on the board by the end of the frame.

Luke Philp tallied a goal in the second peri-od, while Landon Peel tallied the go-ahead goal in the the final frame. Landon Cross added the insurance

with an empty net goal in the final 90 seconds of the game.

Wyatt Hoflin got a rare start for Kootenay, making 31 saves for the win, while Troy Tromb-ley turned away 39 shots in defeat for Saskatoon.

Kootenay sits in fifth place in the Eastern Conference as they struggle to catch Medi-cine Hat in fourth place. The Tigers are proving to be difficult as they continue to win, which has given them a rela-tively comfortable seven point lead.

The Ice will get a chance to play in front of a home crowd on Tuesday when they host the Red Deer Rebels.

The Kimberley Dy-namiters are one game away from heading into the next round of the KIJHL playoffs.

Fernie picked up a 3-1 win on Friday in Kimberley, but the Dy-namiters won the re-match in Fernie on Sat-urday in overtime.

Kimberley now leads the series 3-1 and have a chance to close it out on home ice on Monday night.

Down 3-2 heading into the final minute on Saturday night in Fernie, Bryce Perpelitz scored a clutch goal with 10 sec-onds left on the clock to tie the game and force overtime.

Tristan Pagura was the overtime hero, end-ing the game at 3:31 of the extra frame.

Fernie jumped ahead to an early first-period lead on a goal from Kale Johnston and a power-play marker from Dylan Robertson.

The Riders padded their lead in the second frame on a goal from Josh Oderlein, before Kimberley cut into the lead with a powerplay goal from Tyler Garcia.

Garcia notched his second of the game after the halfway mark of the final frame, setting up an exciting finish as Ni-tros goaltender Jeremy Mousseau headed to the bench for the extra attacker with 1:40 re-maining on the score-board.

Mousseau made 20 saves during the game, while Phoenix Lo-gan-Hill turned awe 32 shots for Fernie.

Both teams scored once on the powerplay; Kimberley had five chances with the man advantage, while Fernie had four.

The contest also fea-tured the return of Kim-berley captain Darren Martin and Fernie for-ward Aiden Geiger, both of who were suspended for three games for a staged fight in the final meeting of the regular season.

The night before, on Friday, Kimberley dropped the only game of the series so far after a

stellar performance from Logan-Hill helped Fernie to a 3-1 win.

In a pre-game cere-mony, Perpelitz was honoured with the Eddie Mountain Divi-sion defenceman of the year award.

Perpelitz had nine goals and 22 assists in 37 games with the Nitros this year, making him the team’s highest scor-ing defenceman.

“It means quite a bit as a 19-year-old playing, moving on after this, going to school and all that—I think it means a lot,” said Perpelitz.

“I think I’m more proud of my teammates right now, keeping the playoffs alive right now, and I couldn’t have done it without them.”

After losing the first two games of the series, Fernie came out with some jump and Ben Primeau scored the first goal on a tough Kimber-ley giveaway in the neu-tral zone.

In the second period, a controversial icing call was made on Kimber-ley. Fernie won the face-off in Nitro territory and Spencer Bender promptly made it 2-0 for the Riders.

Kimberley got on the board in the third peri-od on a powerplay goal, with Garcia feeding Pa-gura, who sniped the short side top corner to make it a one-goal game.

However, five min-utes later, JJ Beitel re-stored the two-goal lead, which Fernie rode to the win.

Logan-Hill was prac-tically unbeatable, mak-ing 43 saves for the win while Dynamiters net-minder Mousseau made 19 stops.

Both teams had five chances with the man advantage; Kimberley scored once, and shut out Fernie on all their powerplay opportuni-ties.

“We had the mo-mentum of the game, the whole game,” said Perpelitz, “we just didn’t have any puck luck going for us. We had it in their end the whole game and we fought through it, just couldn’t bury so it’s a tough loss.”

Dynamiters push Fernie to the brink

Stoughton rink remains undefeated at BrierC ANADIAN PRESS

KAMLOOPS, B.C. - Two winless rinks gave favourites all they could handle Sunday night, but Manitoba’s Jeff Stoughton and B.C.’s John Morris pulled wins out of the hat with final rocks at the Ca-nadian men’s curling champi-onship.

“Nothing like being one down coming home and hav-

ing an open hit for a bundle,” said Stoughton, after his 9-5 win over James Grattan and New Brunswick at the Tim Hortons Brier.

“We had a really thin dou-ble in nine to take three and just paper ticked it and didn’t get it out. That’s just the way it goes sometimes, you’re just a quarter inch off here and there and we got it finally in the

10th.”Stoughton improved to 4-0

at the top of the standings but he was down a point coming home and hit to score five in the 10th end.

Morris, meanwhile, also had trouble with winless Jamie Murphy and Nova Scotia and was down a point coming home in 10.

But third Jim Cotter’s final

rock scored three to give them an 8-6 win and improve their record to 3-1 just behind Stoughton in second place. Cotter throws fourth stones.

They started by giving up their second four ender of the day in the second end.

“That’s the first time in a bonspiel we’ve given up one four-ender let alone two in a day,” said Morris.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Don’t be surprised to wake up in a cranky mood, as your dream-time occurred under some hard planetary vibes. Try not to act on your feelings. A discussion with someone very similar to you could open up an interesting is-sue. Tonight: All’s well that ends well. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You could be strong-willed about a personal matter and end up bullying everyone into his or her respective corners. Is that what you really want? By late afternoon, once you have calmed down, you will need to act. Tonight: Someone close to you might not be anxious to talk. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Zero in on what you want. A partner could become con-trolling, which might provoke quite a response from you. Is it possible that you are channeling some of your distress about an-other situation into this one? Try to look at the long term. Tonight:

Get into a lighthearted pastime. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Pressure seems to build to an unprecedented level. The unexpected could occur when dealing with a key associate. A partner might get very con-trolling as well. Keep your cool, and know that everything could change quickly. Tonight: In the limelight. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You tend to be present in the moment while still gaining an overview of the situation. Some-one might push you hard to get his or her way. The results will be that you distance yourself from this person. Honor a change of pace. Tonight: Let your imagina-tion run wild. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Deal directly with someone whom you care a lot about. You might want to tap into your cre-ativity when dealing with this person. Push comes to shove with a new friendship. Someone could be jealous of the time you spend with your new friend. To-night: Opt for togetherness. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might need to defer to a key person in your life. An effort to work together could seem feasible initially, but you’ll need one person to be in charge; let it be the other person. Use your intuitive sense with a health or work matter. Tonight: Say “yes” to a suggestion. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You have the strength to contin-ue like the Energizer Bunny. Just the same, someone could throw a boomerang in your path. Jump over it, and don’t let it trip you up. Be aware of what others are asking, but don’t interfere with the completion of a project. To-night: As you like it. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might want to let go of plans and let your spontaneous personality take over. Passion consumes much of your time, whether it be a certain topic, person, pastime or sport. Con-sider incorporating more pas-sion into your daily life. Tonight: Kick up your heels. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll want to understand what is happening with a close loved

one. You can push and prod to get answers, but know that this manipulation could backfire. Though you might find it dif-ficult to play it loose with this person, you’ll need to. Tonight: Happiest at home. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Keep communication open, and try not to make any judgments. Listen to what others are saying, and imagine what it must be like to be in their shoes; your under-standing will evolve as a result. A boss or parent could be touchy or withdrawn. Tonight: Be avail-able. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Keep reaching out to someone at a distance. You might not like what you hear at first, and you’ll wonder what would be best to do. Keep a conversation lively yet open. Refuse to replay a difficult situation over and over again in your head. Tonight: Make it your treat. BORN TODAY Actress Jessica Biel (1982), sci-entist Alexander Graham Bell (1847), wrestler Justin Gabriel (1981)

Dear Annie: My sister complains that our mother (who can be narcissistic and self-centered) has never reached out to her son. “Mitch” is now 25, and Mom has nev-er tried to get to know him. Mom sent my daughter (now 33) on trips to Europe and would visit us often, but did not do the same for Mitch. Mitch is not easy. I used to send him gifts for birthdays and other milestones and never received any response, so I finally stopped. In person, he is monosyllabic and quiet. When he was 2, I remember seeing him bite my sister and throw tantrums. Mitch is very bright. He’s been in college off and on for the past six years, but still has not finished his degree. I am fairly certain that he was into pot through high school and may still be. He has never had a real job, although he’s worked part-time temp posi-tions. My sister’s relationship with our mother has always been slightly problematic. She is now divorced and struggling financially, and my mother is well off. Mitch could use help with tuition and books. When I suggested that he call or email his grandmother occasionally to let her know what’s going on in his life, my sis-ter became angry. She blames Mom for nev-er reaching out to the “child” and claims a normal grandparent would show an interest in her grandson. She insists the onus is on the adult in the relationship. Is there an an-swer to this dilemma? -- Confused Sister and Aunt Dear Confused: First of all, let’s eliminate what Mitch did when he was 2. It is ridicu-lous and unforgiving to stigmatize a child as “difficult” because he bit and threw tan-trums as a toddler. And yes, your mother should have made an effort to know and love her grandson regardless of how difficult he may have been. That said, however, Mitch is an adult now and is responsible for his own behavior. If he believes his grandmother doesn’t care about him, he’s unlikely to email her. If your sister reinforces the idea that it’s Grandma’s re-sponsibility to initiate contact, Mitch won’t do anything. And if Grandma is narcissistic and self-centered, she may have no inter-est in Mitch, because it requires too much of her. This kid may not be easy, but he has been rejected by members of his family for most of his life. Please be kind. Dear Annie: Our daughter is getting mar-ried in the fall, and we are having the wed-ding and reception in our backyard. How can we ask guests not to use their cellphones or text during the festivities? This rudeness has become acceptable, but not to my wife or me. -- Jim Dear Jim: It’s perfectly OK to ask your guests to turn off or mute their cellphones during the ceremony. The minister or best man can make the announcement before the wedding begins. But you will have less luck at the reception. People want to take photos of themselves and their friends and text a play-by-play to those who couldn’t attend. You can ask the guests to put their phones away so they can enjoy the real-time fun, but you cannot force them. If there is a band, even a muted noise level should be enough to lessen the distraction. Dear Annie: This is in response to “Polly Positive,” whose husband is dealing with cancer, and family and friends keep telling him horror stories about death. My nephew was recently diagnosed with cancer. He invited me for Thanksgiving, and I was dreading it. One of the first things I did was go online and look up “what NOT to say to cancer patients.” I was amazed to see what comes out of the mouths of otherwise intel-ligent people. I encourage all of your readers to do this. It may save them from stepping on their tongues -- Prayerful in K.

In Loving MemoryKenneth H. Smith

Oct. 25, 1946 - Mar. 3, 2011

No One KnowsThey say there is a reason.

They say that time will heal.But neither time nor reason,Will change the way we feel.

For no one knows how many times,We have broken down and cried.We want to tell you something,So there won’t be any doubt.

You’re so wonderful to think of,But so hard to be without.

Love you alwaysPearl; Brent, Dean, Shelley

and their families

In times of grief, these caring professionals are here to serve and comfort your family.
