Fraser Institute releases secondary
school rankingsKimberley’s Selkirk is third fastest improving
school in province
C ArOLyN gr [email protected]
The Fraser Institute has released their annual rankings on secondary schools in the province, and Selkirk Secondary is rapidly climbing the rankings. Selkirk has risen from an av-erage ranking of 140 for the past five
years to 83 out of 284 B.C. high schools. Selkirk was the only school in the Rocky Mountain District, and in fact in the Kootenays, to show this rapid im-provement.
Schools’ academic performances are rated on the following criteria:
(1) the average exam mark in the grade-10, grade-11, and grade-12 courses that include a mandatory pro-vincial exam;

FIndlay Creek reSCue
Missing men’s truck locatedC ArOLyN gr ANT
The search for two men miss-ing in the Findlay Creek area since Saturday, June 8 has taken a new turn. RCMP and Search and Rescue have located the truck in the fast-moving creek, but condi-tions are such that they cannot get to it.
“They are still missing but we were able to positively locate the truck,” said Cpl. Chris Newel of the Kimberley Detachment. “It’s in a really dangerous spot and the current is just too swift and too
strong.“We can’t get down to it and at
this time, won’t be able to get it out. We can’t ascertain if the two men are in it or not.”
Search and Rescue and police remain on the scene, Newel said, and are doing their best to come up with some options for the fam-ilies.
“There are a lot of theories as to whether they are in the truck or not,” he said. “They may not be.”
The velocity of the river is not likely to decrease any time soon
as the freshet continues and there is rain in the forecast.
Newel says the water did clear over the weekend and that’s why they were able to locate the truck, but the velocity is not slowing.
He says the loss of a Search and Rescue worker in Creston in late June of 2011 is very much on the minds of those working on this case.
“It’s a serious concern for all of us,” Newel said.

A dogs life is one of inner turmoil.Do I follow
my head or my heart, my
instincts or my — and here I use the term loosely —
master’s command. Torn by indecision
we dogs face one diffi cult choice after another. It was with this confl ict in my heart and my human’s voice booming, “Boulder Come!” in my ears, that I bolted away down the trail, my nose full of bear scent.
I admit that I fi nd it frustrating when I am unable to restrain myself from following my baser instincts. Though I possess superior cognitive abilities, and am aware that to obey my humans instructions is not only wise but makes for a stronger bond between us, sometimes I can’t help but follow my inner wolf.
This inability to shut off those traits which are hardwired into our canine brains is nicely illustrated in the animated movie “Up.” In it we are introduced to a dog named Dug, who has been outfi tted with a device that allows him to communicate verbally with humans. Unfortunately, Dug’s conversations are disjointed — to say the least — due to his inability to focus. Every time he gets half way though a sentence he blurts out “Squirrel!” You see, even though gifted with language, poor Dug is still a dog, and we dogs are unable to ignore squirrels. It is a sort of canine contractual obligation, if you will: a contract written in DNA.
Don’t get me wrong; I do not lament the abilities that have been gifted to me. On the contrary, I celebrate the gene structure that makes me who I am. For example, I was born a retriever. To fi nd things and carry them back to human-types is what I do and I do it very well. Although, on occasion I must admit I sometimes enjoy a little game of keep-away to see if I can make my human fetch it from me. Turn-about, after all, is fair play.
On this occasion however, I could tell by my human’s tone that he was not in a playful mood. Perhaps that is why I was able to break off from the scent and return to him as he was so urgently instructing. Once at his heel, I could tell by his jumpy mannerisms (and the fact he had taken the safety off his bear spray) that my dash had alerted him to the possibility of there being a bear in the area.
If I would have had one of those fancy gizmos of Dug’s, I could have told him that I had indeed… “Bear!” And I was, regrettably, off again at full speed.
I had just made it out of the sight of my dude, when I encountered three full-sized — no make that super-sized — bears. A sow and her now three-year-old cubs, which trust me, didn’t look much like cubs anymore. The sow clacked her teeth and woofed at me. I whimpered at her and departed post haste.
Now it occurred to me that even though I was a retriever, the bears were not something my man would appreciate me bringing back to him. Lacking that damn Dug gizmo I had to fi nd some other way to communicate to him the possibility of Ursine company, so as soon as he could see me, I urgently began looking over my shoulder like there might be something chasing me. Luckily there wasn’t.
My dude seemed to comprehend my warning as he turned off the trail and headed in a different direction. We did however, see the bears a little later, and when my man commanded me to heel and we headed for home, I did just as he asked. My inner wolf now with its tail tucked fi rmly between its legs.

Other than when we open a jar from the back of the fridge to discover it’s filled will fuzzy grey-green mould, do we give fungi a second thought? Mushrooms, mould, fungi, are totally out of the mainstream and often more than a little gross.
Until you hear, and see, Rob Macrae’s amusing and informa-tive fungi presentations. Macrae, an environ-mental technology in-structor at Selkirk Col-lege, has extensive edu-cational and practical knowledge of fungi. Over the past 16 years his passion for the sub-ject has developed into two presentations: Fungi: Agents of Change and Origins of Santa Claus.
Fungi: Agents of Change, focuses on the long and surprisingly complex relationship between fungi and hu-
mans. Included are a number of examples where fungi shaped some historical event or thwarted some other-wise well-conceived plan.
You will be intro-duced to Witch’s Butter, Slippery Jacks and many more whimsical growths found in the Kootenays.
Mushrooms and Santa Claus – what’s the connection? The Ori-gins of Santa Claus is a fascinating tale of how fungi are an integral part of our folklore. What started out as an amusing anecdote in his larger talk, evolved into a stand alone pre-sentation.
A grant from the Kootenay Cultural Alli-ance, to collaborate with the Kootenay Li-brary Federation, has
resulted in tour of seven communities: Revel-stoke, Golden, Vale-mount, Invermere, Fernie, Kimberley and Creston.
Rob Macrae has a collection of books on mushrooms including several with illustra-tions by people like Be-atrix Potter, dried mush-rooms and may bring along fresh specimens weather depending. He encourages people who attend to bring along any fungi or mushrooms they have recently collected and he will try to identify them.
Join Rob Macrae at his free presentation: Fungi: Agents of Change on June 25th at 7:00 pm at Kimberley Public Li-brary. For more infor-mation contact Karin at 250-427-3112.

Fascinating fungiCuts to forestry a perilous path
norM MACDonAlDMLA Columbia River-
Revelstoke
Forestry is incredibly important to the econo-my of our area. The BC Liberals may only want to talk about natural gas, but people in my com-munities know that for-estry must not be ig-nored.
Unlike much of rural British Columbia, this area has maintained a fairly healthy manufac-turing base. And the market for our manufac-tured wood products is strengthening in the United States which is good news for us.
This constituency is fortunate to have Down-ie Timber, Selkirk Spe-cialty, Stella Jones, LP Golden, Brisco Wood, Skookumchuck Pulp, WoodEx, and Canfor op-
erations in Radium and Canal Flats. These mills provide hundreds of family supporting jobs and millions of dollars in wages. Their success means a lot for all of us.
While this industry is highly dependent on market forces, the gov-ernment is still responsi-ble for ensuring that it provides the right envi-ronment for success.
Our forests must be managed sustainably. With 94% of our prov-ince owned by the Crown, the provincial government has an obli-gation to manage it properly.
Without careful stew-ardship by government, it becomes difficult to as-sure our international buyers that our wood products are environ-mentally sustainable. Forest companies have been clear that they rely on British Columbia’s good reputation in for-
estry to retain their certi-fication.
The provincial gov-ernment is putting this certification at risk. The government is not re-planting trees, nor is it doing proper timber and non-timber inventory. The government is not fulfilling its obligation to include local communi-ties or First Nations in decision making. And, the BC Liberals intend to cut a further $40 million from the Ministry of For-est. This is a perilous path.
People in my com-munities understand the true value of forestry for our local economies. We know that forestry can continue to provide prosperity if we make the right decisions. If you are concerned about the cuts that are planned for the Ministry of Forests, take a moment to send an email to [email protected].

From Page 1The two men, Stephen Thom-
son, 21, of Canal Flats, and Nich-olas Hoefnagels, 18, of Carstairs, Alberta, left their campsite at Whitetail Lake around 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 8.
Police were called when they still hadn’t returned by 2:30 a.m.
On Sunday, Search and Rescue and RCMP found a spot on Findlay Creek Forest Service Road where it appeared that a vehicle had left the road down a steep embankment into Findlay Creek. A Search and Rescue team combed the area and found personal items belonging
to the subjects on the bank of the creek. At that time there was no sign of the vehicle.
Findlay Creek Forest Service Road meets Highway 92/95 west of Canal Flats and leads to Whitetail Lake and the Blue Lake Centre.
Police and Search and Rescue find vehicle, unable to reach it

MYR A FARQUHARFor the Bulletin
In 2003, Albert Frick donated a travelling gavel to Harmony Chap-ter #45, Order of the Eastern Star with a car-rying case and a request to add all chapters.... name and number and date of visit and then take it to another Chap-ter. It was the aim of the donor and his Chapter that it would visit all chapters in the Grand Jurisdiction of British Columbia & Yukon. It travelled for a few years and then disappeared in its transit.
Now found, it has begun another journey
throughout the jurisdic-tion. Worthy Grand Ma-tron, Glenis Allan and Worthy Grand Patron have chosen to try to strengthen the links within our Grand Juris-diction as one of their aims. One of the ways of accomplishing this is by taking the travelling gavel with them to each chapter and to ask the Worthy Matron of that Chapter to use it during the Official Visit.
The gavel, which is a hand-crafted, three-foot gavel of a combination of Kootenay woods, began its journey on June 1 in the Chapter of its birth, Harmony Chapter #45. The meet-
ing opened with Worthy Grand Matron, Glenis Allan explaining its mis-sion and then requested Harmony’s WM, Myra Farquhar to use it to close the meeting.
The first meeting after their Installation for the Provincial lead-ers was in Harmony with Worthy Matron, Myra Farquhar and Worthy Patron, Sandy Marshall in the East. They were welcomed by a rousing “We are #1!” cheer form Harmony’s officers. The local WM and WP were recipient of special gifts from the Provincial leaders. The WGM asked WM Myra to use her gavel during

the meeting. This spe-cial gavel was her Instal-lation gift from her hus-band, Martin.
In addition to the welcome for many dis-tinguished visitors, the Golden Stars, members with over 50 years of ser-vice to our Order were introduced from their seats: Sr Flo McGillivray, 83.5 yrs;Sr Tory MacKin-non, 59 yrs; Sr Jean Craik, 58 yrs; Sr Kim Ball, 57 yrs; Sr Jean Hedquist, 57 yrs; Sr Jean Fleury, 56 yrs; Sr Alice Sang, 55 yrs; Sr Gwen Sturn, 53 yrs and Sr Sylvia Green, 53 yrs. A hearty round of applause was accorded this group who have given 521 years
service to our Star.Under Good of the
Order, Associate Matron, Sr Didi Stroud, on behalf of Harmony, presented the WGM with a cheque for Cancer Research & Dressings. On behalf of Sr Flo, the WGM, re-ceived a northern carv-ing of the Queen of Peace, a donation from Sr Lorraine Pommier.
The WGP thanked Harmony for his many courtesies and gave an inspiring talk on their chosen special project.... the BC Children’s hospi-tal & its need for special-ized equipment for chil-dren of all corners of the jurisdiction.
The WGM gave a in-spirational word on ‘Courage’ and the need of it in today’s everyday life. Her closing remark reminded us that ’kind-ness is a language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see!’ Following the Farewell given by Sr Allan, Harmony was de-clared closed with the travelling gavel and the gathering retired for re-freshments & fellowship. During this time, Sr Stroud presented the WGM with a cheque for $250 for their special project.

RCMP in Cranbrook are currently investi-gating a double stab-bing which occurred early Sunday morning in the 17th Ave North area of the City.
Just before 4am on Sunday, June 16th, 2013 Cranbrook RCMP responded to a report of a double stabbing in
the area of 17th Ave-nue and 8th Street North, Cranbrook. The police investigation determined that two males in their 20’s were walking in the area when they were approached by an un-known male suspect who accused them of trying to steal some-thing. The suspect be-came more belligerent
and attacked both vic-tims. It was only after the suspect left that the two victims real-ized they were bleed-ing and had been stabbed by an edged weapon. This violent attack was completely unprovoked and the victims were trans-ported to the East Koo-tenay Regional Hospi-tal by BC Ambulance
Service and under-went surgery for seri-ous but non-life threatening injuries and still remain in the hospital at this time.
The Cranbrook RCMP are seeking the assistance of anyone who may have ob-served or heard any-thing suspicious in the early morning hours in that area and are con-
centrating their inves-tigation in the area of Kootenay Street North through to Victoria Avenue in the 400 to 1000 block.
At this early stage, the police believe this attack may be in retal-
iation for an earlier incident and is a case of mistaken identity.
If anyone has any additional informa-tion about this or any other crime they can call the Cranbrook RCMP at 250-489-
3471 or East Kootenay Crimestoppers (1-800-222-TIPS) You can also a webtip by accessing the East Kootenay Crimestop-pers website at : cintek.com/crimes-toppers/

Over the weekend, people packed the streets for Sam Steele Days celebrations.
Laura Kennedy, Sam Steele Days co-ordinator, said this was one of the most well-attended events she’s seen, and was helped along by the summer weather.
“Everything went really well. The weather was really awesome on the weekend,” Kennedy said. “We had record numbers out watching the parade, down at the central fairgrounds on Saturday. We had huge participation in the ball and soccer tournaments. It was just a wonderful weekend.”
She couldn’t estimate the exact numbers attending the pa-rade, but said it was in the thou-sands.
After the parade, everyone headed over to Rotary Park, where people could sample food from all over the area in the Taste
of Cranbrook event, check out the talent competition or pur-chase crafts and other goods from the many vendors. There was also face-painting, a petting zoo and balloon park for kids.
The Strongman competition took place right beside the park, while just down the road, the wiener dog races and lumberjack competition were going on.
She estimated 5,000-6,000 people in the fairgrounds, the area from Baker Street to Rotary Park.
“We were very happy with the way things went,” she said. “I would say attendance was defi-nitely up this year.”
There were also sweetheart participants from other areas in attendance at the pageant and in the parade.
“We had more visiting royalty this year than we’ve had in a cou-ple of years,” she said.
Kennedy said the event is planned throughout the year by a core committee of 12 people,
who then reach the different or-ganizers of the events taking place.
“I would say there are proba-bly 500 people involved one way or another in the daily activities,” she said. “There are probably 60 volunteers just working on the parade alone. Then you look at the ball tournament, there’s got to be 100 volunteers working on that event.”
When you factor in all the other events, the volunteer con-tribution is quickly felt.
Kennedy said the city and its staff were great to work with, as well as the corporate sponsors.
“It just really is a community event to make this thing happen,’ she said. “A big thank you to Cranbrook and everyone who came out and was either partici-pating or spectating. It was a great weekend.”
She invites everyone to come out and celebrate next year when it will be the 50th anniversary of Sam Steele Days.

You certainly can’t say that Iranian elections are boring. In 2005, Irani-ans surprised everybody by electing
the darkest of dark horses, Mahmoud Ah-madinejad, to the presidency. They didn’t know much about him, but at least he seemed different from all the establishment candidates.
Well, he was differ-ent, but not in a good way. By the 2009 elec-tion Ahmadinejad’s er-ratic and confronta-tional style had turned people off, and he should have lost – but he rigged the vote and triggered mass pro-tests that badly frightened the regime be-fore they were crushed.
Term limits prevented Ahmadinejad from running again this year, which meant that last Friday’s election was clean. So the Iranians pulled off another surprise, elect-ing Hassan Rouhani, the only moderate candidate among the six contenders, to the presidency in the first round. Rouhani got 50 percent of the votes; his closest rival got only 16 percent.
The foreign reaction to Rouhani’s vic-tory was instantaneous. The United States offered to open direct talks with Tehran on Iran’s nuclear programme as well as on bilateral relations. Israel’s Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, by contrast, pre-dictably warned that there should be no “wishful thinking” about Rouhani’s victo-ry. So what is he: new broom, or another disappointment in the making?
Especially in the past week, after the “reformist” leadership decided he was the least bad alternative and threw its weight behind him, Rouhani has been saying some interesting things. “What I truly wish
is for moderation to return to the country,” he told the reformist daily Sharq last Wednesday. “We have suffered many blows as a result of extremism.”
“It seems that extremists on both sides are determined to maintain the state of
hostility and hatred between (the United States and Iran),” he told another newspaper on Thursday, “but logic says that there should be a change of direction.” And he repeatedly promised that both the nucle-ar issue and the resulting eco-nomic sanctions against Iran
would be solved if he became president.You might think that Rouhani’s highest
priority, therefore, must be to end the sanctions that are crippling Iran’s econo-my and impoverishing ordinary voters. Not so: trust comes first. In order to retain credibility with the people who voted for him, he must first release Iran’s political prisoners.
There are at least 800 political prison-ers in Iran. Most are people who partici-pated in the “green” protests against the rigged election of 2009, but journalists, human rights activists, feminists and lead-ers of all the minority religions in Iran (Christians, Sunni Muslims and Bahai) are also in jail. Even amidst great economic hardship, that is what the crowds in the streets celebrating Rouhani’s victory were demanding most urgently.
After that, of course, he must make a deal with the Western countries that have waged a long campaign on Israel’s behalf against Iran’s alleged intention to build nuclear weapons. That is not an impossi-ble task, for Iran is certainly not working on nuclear weapons at the moment: the US National Intelligence Estimates of 2007
and 2011 both say so, and even the Israeli intelligence chiefs agree.
The whole campaign against Iran is based not on evidence but on mistrust: the conviction in some Western quarters (and most Israeli ones) that if Iran can enrich uranium, the “mad mullahs” are bound to build and use nuclear weapons in the end. But it is Iran’s right to build nuclear reactors and enrich fuel for them under the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which it has signed and still ob-serves.
Many in the West are privately uneasy about waging a campaign against Iran’s quite legal nuclear power programme when their own ally, Israel, has not signed the NPT and secretly possesses hundreds of nuclear weapons. Now that mo-tor-mouth Ahmedinejad is gone and a saner leader is about to take the reins in Tehran, there could be a deal on the nu-clear issue.
It would be a deal that preserves the country’s right to enrich uranium, but strengthens the controls against enrich-ment to weapons grade (90 percent). As with the question of releasing political prisoners, however, Rouhani must first get the assent of the Supreme Guide, Ayatol-lah Ali Khamenei.
Khamenei, as the head of the theocrat-ic side of the government, has the power to veto everything. On the other hand, he also wants to preserve this strange two-headed beast called the Iranian revo-lution, and he knows that if it does not re-tain popular consent it will eventually die. Western sanctions are bringing the Irani-an economy to its knees, and people are really hurting. So maybe Khamenei will let Rouhani and his backers save him.

downhill democracyCanadian citizens and taxpayers are
really wondering about where are democ-racy is heading. Robocalls, MPs expenses during elections, MPs expenses between elections, and the infamous Senate scan-dal about expenses and the paying back of such expenses. If a Canadian citizen tried such tactics, charges would undoubtedly be laid. Are there two sets of laws; those for Canadians and those for elected and ap-pointed Canadians? Over the centuries many brave Canadians paid the ultimate sacrifice to ensure that we have a demo-cratic society and laws that apply to all Canadians. A famous Canadian wrote a poem that all Canadians should pay atten-tion to;
Take up our quarrel with the foeTo you from failing hands we throwThe torch, be yours to hold it highIf ye break faith with us who dieWe shall not sleep, thou poppies growIn Flanders fields.

Water ProfileOn behalf of the City’s Integrated Com-
munity Sustainability Committee, “Cran-brook Connected”, I wanted to thank the Townsman, and reporter Sally MacDon-ald in particular, for continuing the annu-al profile of our City’s water system.
Water use was the number one issue identified by our community following over four months of public consultations into sustainability in 2011. One of the principle goals in our resulting sustain-ability Plan “Connecting to our Future” (see cranbrookconnected.ca) was to de-velop an annual local media campaign on how our water system works. We felt that water protection and conservation begins with education about the system --from

Our community has made great strides on water sustainability. The City has signed on to the CBT Water Smart Charter, which commits the City to help reach a basin-wide water reduction goal of 20 per cent by 2015. In addition to our on/off outdoor watering days, the City has imple-mented a comprehensive leak detection program, a water conservation public ed-ucation strategy and a low flow toilet re-bate program. The latter program sold out in 2011 and 2012 and has been brought back again in 2013. Finally, the City’s Waste Water Improvement Project, suc-
cessfully completed in 2012, won the Sus-tainable Communities Award for Water from the Federation of Canadian Munici-palities.
We can all do our part to make sure that those who come after use have the same access to a safe, efficient and sustainable water system. You can find out how to “make wiser water choices” at cranbrook.ca/water-conservation.
Thank you again to the Townsman for taking a leadership role in helping to build a better, stronger Cranbrook.

After 34 NDP MLAs were sworn in to continue a stretch of opposition that will reach at least 16 years, leader
Adrian Dix took a few questions about his future.
The party’s provincial council will meet June 21 to set the terms of reference for a review of the party’s dismal election perfor-mance, Dix told reporters. He repeated that his performance won’t be spared, and ticked off some conventional wisdom about the NDP campaign.
Dix mentioned the alleged lack of “neg-ative” ads, the local campaigns (read candi-dates), the decreasing reliability of polls and, when pressed, his surprise decision to come out against the proposed twinning of the TransMountain oil pipeline.
Like last week’s hysteria over a tiny leak in that pipeline, these are great sound bites for the short attention spans of the modern media. But they don’t explain much.
This all-powerful NDP provincial coun-cil is a case in point. A glimpse into its inner workings was provided by a summary of an NDP policy development workshop called “Imagine Our Future” that was leaked by the B.C. Liberals in the final days of the campaign.
The workshop took place in November 2010, coincidentally at the same provincial council meeting where the revolt against former leader Carole James tumbled into
the open. While 13 caucus members were knifing their leader for reasons they still can’t or won’t articulate in public – a glar-ing problem in itself – the backroom policy brainstorm revealed a deeper malaise.
Among the “dream tree” notions put forward in the workshop was “free” post-secondary tuition and public transit, along with raising wages and lowering fees for daycare. This isn’t a dream tree, it’s a money tree.
Remember, this is the NDP’s ruling body, not a high school “social justice” class or an Occupy Vancouver squat.
Showing a glimmer of adult supervi-sion, the workshop table on “equitable tax policy” even identified the problem. Its first recommendation: “Increase our economic and financial literacy to gain credibility.”
The “public ownership” table really got radical. Scrap public-private partnerships, the basis of most government construction today. “Nationalize” independent power projects, in the Venezuelan style of state seizure of private assets. And perhaps most incredibly, tear up the trade agreement between Saskatchewan, Alberta and B.C. that harmonizes transport truck regula-tions and so forth.
In the real world, the four western pre-miers met this week in Winnipeg. And the three-province project now called “New West Partnership” will continue to disman-tle archaic inter-provincial barriers.
Why would the NDP be secretly against that? Because it’s also a “labour mobility” agreement.
This harkens back to a supposed golden age in Canada, when two corporate titans shared the beer business, producing identi-cal bland lager from identical factories in identical stubby bottles. Inter-provincial trade in these stubbies was strictly forbid-den, requiring each province to have a big unionized brewery to make uniformly bad beer for the proletariat.
This is the power of a monopoly union. And because of it, this was how govern-ments tried to “create jobs.” It’s a bygone era to which many core NDP supporters stubbornly cling. This explains the party’s revival of a “job protection commissioner” for forestry.
Which brings us to the proverbial root cause of the B.C. NDP’s woes. Its largest fi-nancial donor is the B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union, which donated $1.4 million to the party in the past eight years, nosing out the Canadian Union of Public Employees and the Hospital Em-ployees’ Union.
Former HEU and BCGEU presidents now sit in the NDP caucus, critics for health and “green” jobs respectively.

Strongman CompetitionTop 10 Results
Competitors show off feats of strength

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor
As usual, Calgary was well represented at the Strongman Compe-tition on Saturday over the Sam Steele Days weekend, however there was some local talent in the lineup of 15 athletes.
However, the Alber-tans ran away with the top finishes, with Paul Binnette winning the who competition after barely making it into the event, according to Trevor Zak, who orga-nizes the show.
“Paul Binnette, the guy who won, he’s friends with all the guys in Calgary,” said Zak. “He just came down be-cause he wanted watch and he ended up com-ing to our banquet on Friday night and just asked me, ‘Man, can I go in? I’m so stoked about this.’”
“I just said, ‘Sure’.“Kind of a last min-
ute walk-on and he ended up winning.”
Huge crowds showed up beside Rotary Park to check out the show, which had some im-pressive feats and chal-lenges, such as a head-to-head dump truck pull and a medley event that featured a deadlift of a car.
“Every year, it gets bigger and bigger,” Zak added. “I’m just happy the community sup-ports it so much. People from kids up to grand-parents just love the event. It kind of boggles my mind, just how much people love the Strongman show. Every year it continues to grow.”
“We had some new athletes this year, so that was phenomenal and it seems like even though they’re still amateurs, they seem to be getting stronger and stronger.”
Other events includ-ed the Atlas stone lift, tire flips, the Husafell carry and the keg press, which made a return to honour the memory of
Grant McReynolds, a past competition judge who passed away.
“That was one of Grant McReynolds fa-vourite events, so we decided to bring that one back,” said Zak. “Even though it’s only 150 pounds, it’s a lot harder because it’s so short, compared to logs.”
It was the first time the competition had head-to-head truck pulls, as competitors raced side-by-side to get the huge machine rolling.
The atlas stone lift was another tough one, but that didn’t stop one competitor from re-questing even bigger weights, which started at 250 pounds and only got heavier from there on in.
“Travis Dergousoff said he wants a 400-pound stone next year, because the 365 was easy. We’ll see what we can do,” laughed Zak.
However, by the time it got to the tire flip near the end of the show, the leaders of the pack began to pull away.
“It kind of separated the stronger guys from the guys who weren’t as strong, because towards the end, the guys who were first, second and third were obviously the
guys who flipped it a lot further,” Zak said.
Prizes for the top fin-ishers included: two nights accommodation and skiing at Kimberley Alpine Resort or Fernie
Alpine Resort for first place. A $500 gift certifi-cate from Uniglobe Travel went to second place, while a night at Panorama Mountain Village Resort with four
mountain bike passes went to third place. An anonymous donation of $500 in memory of McReynolds was split between fourth, fifth and sixth place.
Bruins blank Blackhawks for series leadNEIL DAVIDSONCanadian Press
BOSTON - Daniel Paille and Patrice Bergeron scored sec-ond-period goals and Tuukka Rask made 28 saves Monday as the hard-charging Boston Bru-ins blanked the Chicago Black-hawks 2-0 to take a 2-1 lead in the Stanley Cup final.
The Bruins were full value for their second straight win, com-ing out hard and crashing Chi-cago. Boston seemed bigger, faster and meaner on the night.
“It’s nice to get a win,” said Bruins captain Zdeno Chara. “We’re up 2-1. We’ve got to get ready for the next one.”
Even anthem singer Rene Rancourt seemed up for it, add-ing a few more degrees of diffi-culties to his litany of pre-game fist pumps and facial contor-tions. The TD Garden crowd of 17,565, Boston’s 163rd straight sellout, ate it up.
History has Boston at the front of the NHL championship bus now. Teams winning Game 3 after splitting first two games of the final have gone on to win 21 of 25 times since the best-of-seven format began in 1939.
Paille, the overtime hero of Game 2, opened the scoring for
Boston as the Bruins’ reshaped third line of Paille, Chris Kelly and Tyler Seguin paid dividends again. The trio accounted for both Boston goals in the Bruins’ overtime win in Game 2.
Bergeron then scored on the power play, with Paille and Kelly prompting the Hawk penalties that led to the goal. The Bruins forward was a one-man ma-chine, with six shots in the first two periods alone. He also dom-inated faceoffs, winning 19 of 22 in the first 40 minutes.
The other Bruins did the little things too. Blocking shots. Win-ning faceoffs. Shrugging off Blackhawks like annoying little brothers. When the situation called for it, they just dumped the puck somewhere safe and regrouped.
Game 4 goes Wednesday in Boston.
Hawks co-scoring leader Marian Hossa was a late scratch after the warmups with an up-per-body injury and was re-placed by Ben Smith. That meant shelving a marquee play-er on a $7.9-million contract for a $550,000 forward who had played once this season. Chica-go coach Joel Quenneville said after the game that Hossa is day-to-day.
It was a take-no-prisoners warmup. Boston coach Claude Julien said Chara suffered a small cut during warmup after colliding with bulking forward Milan Lucic.
Quenneville, who had earlier decided to replace Brandon Bol-lig with Viktor Stalberg, shook up his lines like a frustrated Scrabble player. Captain Jona-than Toews surprisingly started with Marcus Kruger and Mi-chael Frolik, while Smith opened with Dave Bolland and Patrick Sharp.
Notes: The first two games of the series lasted some 186 min-utes, leaving both teams with one win and five goals ... Chica-go started Viktor Stalberg in place of Brandon Bollig

New bocce pits a hit: organizersTre vor Cr awley
Sports Editor
Change can be a good thing, and the new location for the bocce pits at Baker Park for Sam Steele Days went off with nary a hitch, as over 40 teams came out to christen the new spot.
Dressed up in their best costumes ranging from the respectable to the ridiculous, teams kicked off the action mid-morning and car-ried the revelry to the evening.
Prizes went to the top two teams, with Friends taking first place and a $250 cash prize, while RV Buds came in second place, which garnered $150 in winnings.
The best costumed team was also recog-nized with a $50 prize, which went to the Boc-cerinas.
The BA Blacktop Balls of Steele bocce tournament was a sepa-rate event from the ball tournament this year, as both had previously been organized by JCI Kootenay.
The two events used to be together at the Kinsmen Quad ball park, with the bocce ac-tion in one of the dia-monds, however, a dif-ferent community group stepped up to take the lead on orga-nizing the ball tourna-ment this year.
JCI Kootenay presi-dent Mike Matejka said his group wanted to separate the bocce from the ball tournament for that reason, and Baker Park seemed like a good spot.
“We wanted to get as close to downtown as possible, where they had the central fair-grounds, where all the
other events were tak-ing place,” said Matejka. “We were right next to the parade route as well, so we felt like we were definitely able to get some foot traffic from some people that were attending some of the other events, and it also allows the bocce players to go be spectators at other events.”
As far as feedback goes, Matejka only heard positive things about the move.
“The new location at Baker Park was a hit with players and specta-tors, everybody said it was a great place and we definitely intend on bringing the bocce back to Baker Park next year,” he said.
“I think we ended up with just over 800 peo-ple who came in and out of the gates.”
Even though the new location proved to be
well-received, Matejka said his fellow JCI Koo-tenay members and vol-unteers were still taking notes.
“We’re pretty happy with the way setup worked for us. We’d like to continue to grow the tournament and the number of teams and number of spectators that come out and watch,” Matejka said.”
“One of our biggest things was just realizing that we do have a little bit of extra space at the park that we didn’t nec-essarily utilize—we could expand the area a little bit, which would allow for some more teams, more spectators, possibly more vendors and all that sort of stuff.”
Matejka also gave a shout-out of apprecia-tion to local businesses that sponsored the event, as well as the vol-unteers who helped out.
Hot Blue Jays topple Rockies 2-0Jason KellerCanadian Press
TORONTO - Maicer Izturis made sure a strong outing from Blue Jays starter Josh Johnson didn’t go to waste.
Izturis drove in the game’s only runs with an RBI single in the eighth inning Monday as To-ronto pushed its win streak to six games with a 2-0 interleague vic-tory over the Colorado Rockies.
Johnson struck out 10 while giving up five hits and walking two through 7 1-3 innings but is still winless in seven starts since being acquired by the Blue Jays in the off-season.
After a rough start to the year and stint on the disabled list
with a triceps injury, Johnson has rounded into form as of late. He’s given up a combined four runs in his last three starts, in-cluding Monday night’s gem which was twice pushed back due to a blister on one of his fin-gers.
“It is what it is at the begin-ning of the year, but now we’re winning and that’s the fun part and the key thing,” said Johnson. “You win games and everything else takes care of itself.”
Monday’s victory marked To-ronto’s first six-game winning streak since May 2011 and moved the club (33-36) to three games below .500 for the first time since April 21.
The streaking Blue Jays, who have won nine of 11, are coming off a 5-1 road trip that included the club’s first-ever four-game sweep of the Rangers in Texas.
Toronto broke open a 0-0 game with Colorado in the eighth when Davis greeted Rock-ies reliever Matt Belisle (4-4) with a single to right and stole second before Colby Rasmus walked. J.P. Arencibia advanced the runners on a short chopper back to the mound to set up Iz-turis, who sent a flair into short left field to cash in two runs.
After Melky Cabrera hit into a double to end the inning, Casey Janssen sealed the win with his 15th save in the ninth.
Argos give cornerback Horne his walking papers
C anadian PressPacino Horne has
gone from Grey Cup hero to being unem-ployed.
The speedy corner-back was among 11 players released Mon-day by the Toronto Ar-gonauts. Horne started the club’s 35-22 CFL championship win over the Calgary Stampeders at Rogers Centre last No-vember and delivered a key play in the victory.
With Toronto leading 7-3, Horne intercepted Calgary’s Kevin Glenn and returned it 25 yards
for the TD and a 14-3 advantage.
The six-foot-one, 181-pound Horne regis-tered four interceptions with Toronto last sea-son, his first in the CFL. Horne, whose mother named him after Acade-my Award-winning actor Al Pacino, was late reporting to the Argos training camp due to a calf injury.
“We have a number of talented players com-peting for spots in our secondary and we look forward to seeing them develop,” Argos GM Jim
Barker said in a state-ment.
Also released were kicker/punter Anthony Alix and receivers Quin-cy Hurst and Djems Kouame, all Canadians.
Running back Daryl Stephenson, who cap-tured the 2006 Hec Crighton Trophy while at the University of Windsor, was among three players released by the Hamilton Ti-ger-Cats.
The Ticats also an-nounced fullback Isaac Dell, a 2013 fifth-round draft pick, has retired.
Down in NBA final, Heat head into familiar territory
Tim reynoldsAssociated Press
MIAMI - LeBron James has been wearing a good amount of cam-ouflage attire at times during the NBA play-offs, with some of his vests, pants and even ties done in the design.
It doesn’t seem fit-ting, since there’s really
no where for him to hide.
He has more at stake than any other Miami player in these NBA Fi-nals, especially now that the San Antonio Spurs are one game away from grabbing the title. If the Heat lose, it’ll be perceived as James’ failure. If the Heat win,
his status as the game’s best player not only be-comes even more ce-mented, but he might even win over a few more doubters.
James says he looks forward to the chal-lenge that starts when Miami hosts Game 6 of the series on Tuesday night.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) If you choose not to defer to others, the result might be bet-ter than in the recent past. You are a natural leader. Optimism surrounds others, and they will be more open. Communicate your bottom line. Whether it will be honored is another story! To-night: Time with a key loved one. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Continue the push to accomplish key tasks. Handle a financial conversation with care. Confirm what you are hearing. If need be, get an agreement written down; otherwise, there could be quite an unusual turnaround. Tonight: Go as late you want or need, then please relax. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You dance to a different tune, and if you get stopped, you could get aggravated. Be clear about where you are coming from in an overwhelming situation where misunderstandings might hap-pen more easily. Many people come toward you. Tonight: Oth-ers cannot help but respond.
CANCER (June 21-July 22) Reach out to others, especially family and close friends. An issue needs to be seen from all per-spectives before a decision can be made. Everyone’s knowledge, experience and opinions will come together. Tonight: Debate all you want, but know that you have a busy day tomorrow. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Understanding evolves from your recent excessiveness. Try to root out the cause, and you will be happy you did. Misinforma-tion seems to be the status quo at present. Just wait for more facts; asking questions will only add to the confusion. Tonight: Be playful. Meet friends. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Listen to news with an open mind. If information and/or fi-nancial facts seem to be skewed, or if you feel off, take a step back and observe what is going on. Assume that time will be your ally, and know that the waiting game will pay off. Tonight: Join a friend and swap stories. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Your personality helps others
bypass a problem. Ultimately, their unawareness and careless-ness could be an issue. You might want to present the facts as you know them. Cut back on the charm for the time being. In the long run, you will not be blamed. Tonight: As you like it. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Watch, observe and stay mum. You’ll see the underlying cause of a problem as a result. Others might not be ready yet to hear it, though, so be discreet. Do some research in order to stay out of an argument. Tonight: Get some extra R and R, as you are about to go into high gear. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You’ll be found shaking your head and feeling uncertain about which way to go with a major consideration or issue. You might sense that information coming from a partner is off. Wait and see what other facts come in. Put off a meeting for now. Tonight: Where crowds are. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You tend to carry a lot of weight on your shoulders. Others want to hear your opinions and feed-
back. Hold off as long as you can; everyone needs to make his or her own choice. You could see a change in someone’s mood. Pace yourself. Tonight: Count on going till the wee hours. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might feel as if you have pushed hard enough. A partner or close friend will take the lead. If you have questions, ask this person for clarification. If you say nothing, it could lead to an unpleasant disagreement later. Avoid this at all costs. Tonight: Be with a favorite person. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You need to make it a point to re-late directly to someone you care deeply about. This person knows how to respond appropriately, as he or she understands you well. Do not make a misunderstand-ing out to be more than it really is. Tonight: Go for togetherness.

Dear Annie: As a military war veteran and someone raised in the midst of inner-city violence, I have suffered from and learned a great deal about post-traumatic stress disor-der (PTSD). There are many misconceptions about this common and treatable illness, and I want to make sure your readers know the truth about PTSD and how to get help if they need it. When I got out of the service, I could only sit in certain positions in a room and go to certain places. I couldn’t be in crowds or tolerate any kind of loud traffic noise (not easy for a New Yorker). I couldn’t sit next to a window. If anyone came up behind me to say hello, I would drop them to the ground, expecting an attack. I didn’t recognize this at the time as PTSD. I know there are many others with stories like mine, and I want them to know that PTSD is a real illness with real treatment options. It is also important to know that this doesn’t only affect members of the military. Anyone who experiences a traumatic event can develop PTSD. It wasn’t easy, but I eventually got the help I needed and am in a much better place. June 20 is PTSD Screening Day, and June is PTSD Awareness Month. Anyone can go online and take a free and anonymous screening at www.PTSDScreening.org to see whether their symptoms are consistent with those of PTSD. It can be hard to reach out and ask for help, but doing so can make a huge differ-ence. -- William Terry Dear Mr. Terry: Thank you for sharing your story with our readers. You are correct that anyone who has witnessed or experienced trauma can suffer from PTSD. This includes anyone affected by recent tragedies such as Sandy Hook, the Boston Marathon and the tornadoes in Oklahoma. The first step to getting help is identifying the problem. We urge those who think their experience with trauma is impacting them to go to www.PTSDscreening.org and take a short, free, anonymous screening. You won’t be sorry. Dear Annie: Can you tell me what is so wrong with a youngster sending an invita-tion to her aunt addressed to “Aunt Frances” instead of “Mrs. Frances Smith”? My sister gets all bent out of shape when my 10-year-old daughter addresses an envelope to her this way. -- Wondering in Clinton Township Dear Wondering: Your sister should be amazed to receive a handwritten envelope from her niece altogether. It’s fairly rare these days. It’s perfectly OK for a young niece to write “Aunt Frances” on an enve-lope. Many aunts would be charmed. How-ever, one rule of etiquette is not to intention-ally offend. Since you know your sister wants a more formal address, teach your daughter to write to her this way, and please don’t ed-itorialize when you do so. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Wish He’d Look for Another Job,” who is frustrated by a young co-worker. “Justin” can’t remem-ber what was said the minute he hangs up the telephone, doesn’t pay attention to what he is doing, takes on no new responsibili-ties, makes the same mistakes over and over, texts his wife constantly and falls apart over every issue. I would like to mention another possibili-ty. I know a young man who needs constant teaching, doesn’t want to try new things, forgets almost instantly what he has been taught and rarely offers to do anything. He has a processing disorder. He is a loving 30-year-old, but I don’t think he will ever hold a job unless special considerations are made for him. I hope that if he does get a job, it is with folks who are tolerant of his learn-ing disability, although they may not know he has special needs. -- A Reader Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

“I got my first guitar when I was eight,” says V a n c o u v e r - b a s e d champion guitarist Don Alder. “It wasn’t play-able, but I did wear one mean Beatles wig!”
A whimsical begin-ning for one of Canada’s most internationally-re-spected masters of the acoustic guitar, who performs live in concert at the Studio Stage Door Theatre this coming Sat-urday, June 22. This will be Alder’s first perfor-mance in the East Koo-tenay region.
With a career span-ning over three decades, Don Alder has been prominently featured in Guitar Player magazine, and his awards and ac-colades are more than numerous.
“I got really sick when I was 15, and was bedridden for a few months … that’s when my Mom bought me my first electric guitar; a cheap one from the Simpson-Sears catalog,” Alder says. “I saw Jimi Hendrix’s set on the Woodstock movie and there was no turning back. Brian May of
Queen was a pivotal mentor for me. Ad-vanced acoustic-guitar players like Bruce Cock-burn and Joni Mitchell inspired my finger-style playing. Wishbone Ash is my favorite gui-tar-based band of all time. Then I began lis-tening to Al DiMeola and Frank Zappa, and discovered Michael Hedges after that.”
Alder’s main instru-ment of choice is the Ya-maha AC3R-OM model, although he also nota-bly plays a vintage Dyer Harp guitar built in 1918. His arsenal also includes guitars cus-tom-built by private lu-thiers to his standards.
“The only practice I get is through songwrit-ing,” he says. “I don’t have formal technical skills, which can be problematic at times as I have to remember ev-erything! As a kid, I didn’t want to practice; I only wanted to create, and that still remains the case today. That said, I do wish I had some formally-trained skills, as it makes music easier to understand, and to communicate

with other musicians. It also helps you to prob-lem-solve. If I had these skills, I could be much more time-efficient.”
“My creative process is actually fairly simple,” Alder says. “Songs come to me in many ways, and the best ones seem like gifts that happen
quickly. I usually noodle about on the guitar, try-ing different off-the-cuff melodies and passages, which often leads to something which re-veals itself as a few notes where I think: wow, what’s that? Then I’ll ex-plore that.
“Many times, a melo-
dy will take its own path if you let it. When I fight with it, or try to work it too hard, then it takes a LONG time to complete a song. This is probably the one area where hav-ing traditional musical training could be useful to me as a writing tool. Because of my lack of
understanding of the guitar fretboard, I can remain a little kid and just explore the music without any set rules or regulations.”
It’s interesting to learn of Alder’s other musical dabblings. “I also play a bit of drums and bass, and can write

Don Alder will be giving a free guitar workshop Saturday afternoon, June 22, followed by a concert at the Studio Stage Door in Cranbrook.
songs on keyboards. I’d like to be better on those instruments. I’d also like to play harp and saxo-phone, but seriously: the best instruments to play are cowbell, accor-dion, bagpipes, and the banjo … you don’t have to worry about anyone stealing them out of your car!”
As well as his Studio Stage Door show, Alder will also be hosting a free guitar clinic (spon-sored by Yamaha Instru-ments and Ray’s Music) for any interested local acoustic guitarists wish-ing a close-range tutori-al, to be held at AM Music (formerly Blast-beats Music in Specialty Lane) at 3 pm Saturday June 22.
Don Alder performs live at the Studio Stage Door Theatre (11-11th Ave.S., Cranbrook BC)
Saturday June 22; 8 pm. Advance tickets for sale
at Lotus Books. For more information call 250-

Canadian rocker to play KCTStaFF
Canadian rock icon, Matthew Good and his band will be per-forming at Cranbrook’s Key City Theatre on Nov. 21.
Good will be on the B.C. leg of his Cross Canada tour in support of his latest album “Arrows of Desire,” which is set for release Sept. 24 through Universal Music. However, the lead single from the disc “Had it Coming” was just released on itunes May 28. Opening act for the event is Gentlemen Husbands.
The Matthew Good Band was a Canadian alternative rock band formed by Matthew Good, that existed from 1993 to 2002. The band became one of the most successful rock bands of the 1990s, being nominated for a Juno award in 1998, for best new group, and winning the award for Group of the Year in 2000.
The band dissolved in 2002, but Good pursued a successful solo career and has enjoyed mul-tiple hit records since that time.
The phrase “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” doesn’t apply to Good. One of his defining char-acteristics is exactly the opposite of that popular axiom. Over his two-decade career, Good has taken fans on a journey, from the original Matthew Good Band, to “Hospital Music,” to his 2011 Juno winning release “Vancou-ver.”
Good continues to push into uncharted territory. “Arrows of Desire” marks the follow-up to 2011’s “Endangered Species.” A compilation disc “Old Fighter” was released earlier this year.
Good has a place in Canadian music as one of Canada’s most relevant artists, clearly inspired by new influences artistically, yet
remaining inherently recogniz-able.
Tickets for Matthew Good’s “Arrows of Desire” tour went on sale at the Key City theatre box office Monday, June 17, and are priced at $45 all inclusive. Tickets are also available by phone by calling 250-426-7006.
Fans should note that tickets for the tour are going on sale early because the Key City Box office will be closed for the sum-mer from June 28 to mid-August. So get your tickets for Matthew Good early to avoid disappoint-ment.
Mathew Good’s “Arrows of Desire” tour is presented by the Kootenay Concert Connection in association with the Drive 102.9 and the Cranbrook Daily Towns-man. Sound and Lights by PB Pro Audio.
