Teams from across region search for missing man in St. Mary River area

COURTESY MIKE TURNER

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, THE SWINGING SOUND OF THE ‘60S IN CRANBROOK AND KIMBERLEY. You don’t need a ticket to read all about it, on Page 4! The rock and roll, the haircuts, the suits, the Bluebird Inn and a Cranbrook and Kimberley musical rivalry. We repeat, turn to Page 4 for a special trip back. Pictured above: The Blue Velvet Brass from Cranbrook, who did their share of rockin’ in those rockin’ times.

C AROLYN GR ANTAir, water and ground

searches of the St. Mary River continued on Tues-day, as Search and Rescue units from across the Koote-nays and beyond continued the search for a missing man, 23-year-old Alex Brown.

Brown, who was visiting family in Kimberley was re-

ported to have jumped into the St. Mary River on Satur-day, July 5 at about 7 p.m. Kimberley RCMP Cpl. Chris Newel said that he surfaced once but then disappeared from sight.

Kimberley Search and Rescue has set up a com-mand centre at the River-side Campground parking lot as crews work all daylight

hours in the water and searching ground along the river side.

“We are continuing ground searches, water searchers and helicopter searches,” said Kimberley Search and Rescue member Alison Lomon. “The Civil Air Search and Rescue is fly-ing all the way to Koocanu-sa, but the ground search is

from St. Mary Lake down to the campground, about a 17 to 20 kilometre stretch. We are putting in long, long hours.”

Lomon says that the river is not running particularly fast right now, about 12 km per hour, which is normal for this time of year. Howev-er, like any river it can have log jams and other hazards.

Search and Rescue teams from around the region have answered the call to help.

“We have Revelstoke in the water with Penticton right now,” Lomon said.

Search and Rescue will stay on the job until told to stand down, Lomon says, and that is a call that would be made by the RCMP. ALEX BROWN

Have you wondered what programs are in place to deal with inva-sive plants and noxious weeds in the region?

If so, the East Koote-nay Invasive Plant Council will be offering a chance to get your questions answered, as it will be putting on a tour of invasive plant treatment sites in the region later this month.

The tour will show-case efforts by local in-dustry to manage the invasive plant species, as well as share infor-mation and work being done on invasive plant solutions.

The public is invited to come out and see what East Kootenay in-dustries are doing to combat invasive plants by taking the tour on Thursday, July 24.

Tour will highlight invasive

Todd Larson, from the East Kootenay Inva-sive Plant Council (EKIPC) said the issues with invasive plants are recognized as the sec-ond biggest threat to bio-diversity after habitat loss. Here in the East Kootenay, the invasive plants affect both animal forage plants, domestic and wild, as well as agri-cultural crops. Both are economic drivers in the region.

“Highlighted on the tour will be a Blueweed Trial that demonstrates the effectiveness of vari-ous herbicides and ap-plication rates on Blue-weed,” noted Larson. “The results are timely and significant for the EKIPC, industry and pri-vate land owners as Blueweed is quickly be-coming widespread in

many areas of the East Kootenay.”

Blueweed is a region-al noxious weed that in-vades rangelands, pas-tures, roadsides and idle areas, especially those of coarse, sandy and grav-elly soils. It grows to a metre high and is named for its bluish flowers.

Pat Wray, Recreation and Control Services as-sistant at the Regional District, said this will be an interesting tour to see what kind of treatments industry will be doing.

“I think a lot of peo-ple would never have the opportunity to go up in those lands,” Wray said.

There will be an as-sortment of weeds in focus, not just Blueweed. That has been a real problem in the south country, so a Blueweed

BL ack PreSSThe body of a 25-year-old Riondel

man presumed to have drowned in Kootenay Lake has been recovered.

With the help of Idaho-based Ralston and Associates, the body was brought to the surface around 11 a.m. Monday.

The man, whose name hasn’t been released, went missing after jumping from Starbelly Cliff north of Gray Creek on June 30. He and a friend were diving at the popular spot when he hit the water awkward-ly.

The second man tried to pull his friend to safety but the unconscious swimmer slipped under the water and didn’t resurface. He was familiar with the area and was described as an experienced cliff diver.

Using underwater cameras, div-

ers spotted his body resting on a shelf at a depth of 146 feet (44.5 m).

RCMP arranged for Gene Ralston to help recover the body. His firm was the same one that located and recovered three youths who drowned in Slocan Lake this year.

Creston RCMP Staff Sgt. Bob Gol-lan said initially they were expected Monday morning, but arrived a day early. Ralston, his wife, an RCMP of-ficer, and the local conservation offi-cer went out in two boats, but couldn’t find the man.

They were forced off the lake due to high winds, but went out again on Monday at 8 a.m. and located the body about three hours later using a remote underwater vehicle.

The body was turned over to the BC Coroners Service, which contin-ues to investigate.

Body of Riondel man recovered from lake

trial is set up in Elko. She said that study has had interesting results with different herbicides and finding the best time to apply them.

The Plant Council is made up of both govern-ment and non-govern-ment affiliates. Larson said the diverse mix al-lows for partnerships to be brought to the table which play a critical role in reducing and con-trolling invasive plant species. He noted the East Kootenay resource sector is a part of the partnership. The tour

will feature a number of industry partner opera-tors in the area, includ-ing Teck and Fortis BC.

The tour will leave from Tamarack Mall in Cranbrook at 8 a.m. and return by 4 p.m. on July 24. The cost is $15 per person and includes lunch and transporta-tion. This day trip will be both informative and encouraging for those who are set to do battle against invasive species. Please contact Todd Larsen at coordinator@ekipc.com or 1-888-553-5472 to reserve a seat.

Part I of IIANTHONY DR ANSFELD

For the Townsman

Teenage years in Kimberley were fantastic, because

we had two exceptional bands in town, The Epics, and The Hench-men.

Derek Clement was the front man for The Epics, playing rhythm guitar and harmonica, as well as lead vocals.

I am a bit partial to-ward The Epics — I was their “unofficial manag-er and a good friend to all of the band mem-bers, being the only per-son who could sit in on band practice at Derek Clement’s house in Chapman Camp.

Rob “Dusty” Young played lead and acous-tic guitar, while doing vocals with Derek. Dusty has moved back to Kimberley in recent years and is playing in a band here with Marty Musser, Jamie Neve and Dave Birch.

Robert Young is a vir-tuoso guitar player, one of the best I have heard in my musical journey.

Grant Scott, the ex-cellent bassist for The Epics, was particularly adept at listening to a song once or twice with Derek to get the chords down, give those chords to Robert Young, jot down the lyrics and, voila, a new song was ready to be performed at their next gig, which was usually at McDou-gall Hall in Kimberley.

The Epics’ drummer was Dennis Davies who had the very first Beatle haircut in Kimberley. The Epics soon were all sporting Beatles hair-cuts, when long hair was not really “in” here in the East Kootenay.

The Henchmen were fronted by the late great Bobby Dixon, their lead singer. Nobber O’Brien was the band’s lead gui-tarist and was pretty good. Calvin Wong played bass, while Larry “Muss” Musser was their mercurial drum-mer.

Billy Fraser was brought in to play key-boards for The Hench-men. the Epics coun-tered by getting Eric “Ric” Birkeland to play organ for them, pluck-ing him from under the considerable nose of

Ralphie Yarwood, the Selkirk High School Band leader.

Birkeland was amaz-ing on the very popular Animals song of the day — “House Of The Rising Son”. It was a highly re-quested number when the Epics played locally.

The Henchmen were influenced by The Roll-ing Stones, Otis Red-ding, Wilson Pickett, and Tower Of Power. The Epics were influ-enced by The Beatles, The Who, Paul Revere and, of course, The Stones.

The East Kootenay had the wildly popular “Battle Of The Bands” which gave out some decent prize money.usually it was won by The Piltdown Men from Trail, who were a pretty slick group, headed by Larry Hayden (guitar and vocals), Rod Good-erich on drums, and the late George Turner on bass. Bev Herman from Kimberley was a fine vo-calist with “The Pilt-down Men.”

The Epics opened for The Guess Who at The Kimberley Civic Centre, in February, 1967. The Guess Who were very nice to us, I recall, par-ticularly Burton Cum-mings, their lead singer, who had a reputation of being aloof — but not that night. The Epics played “Clock On The Wall,” an original Guess Who tune and one Randy Bachman really liked.

Cranbrook’s answer to The Epics and The Henchmen were The Thin Red Line and The Tycons — who had a wicked sax player, the late Stu Nyquist, who used to wow everyone with his version of “Night Train”. The Thin Red Line were fronted by David Houle, whose dad Lloyd owned CKEK Radio.

Lloyd was a heck of a nice fellow. He passed away after falling in the Grand Canyon while on a hike.

David Houle was a musical talent, an excel-lent singer, and indeed is still in the entertain-ment business in Van-couver.

“The Line” also played a lot at The Blue-bird Inn, an amazing musical venue with its Scandanavian architec-

ture and wonderful acoustics. A circular bal-cony, stage, and rooms where wedding parties and RCMP parties and dances were held.

The Bluebird was the place to go. The Drifters, from Jaffray, served as house band. They were fronted by Butch “Skinny” McLel-lan, who sang blues and played a wicked har-monica.

The Bluebird Inn had fabulous acoustics, and the dance floor had a great spring to it as well. Everyone in the East Kootenay knew and loved the Bluebird Inn.

Sadly, it burned down in the early 1980s and was never rebuilt. It was located where the current Dodge dealer-ship now sits on Cran-brook Street.

“Skinny” McLellan was also resident

numbers with The Epics that Saturday night, doing a few Ronnie Hawkins numbers.

Butch “Skinny” Mc-Lellan passed away in Cranbrook 12 years ago. He was a long haul truck driver all over North America, always pack-ing his harmonicas to drop in on music jams in Dallas, Memphis and Nashville.

In 1986, I was gassing up my Toyota late one night at a vast Union 76 Truck Stop in California on the I80 between Sac-ramento and San Fran-cisco. A huge truck with-out a trailer came ca-reening into my view, heading for my car. As I

was still holding the nozzle and pumping gas, I saw my life flash before my eyes literally. The semi hit the brakes, smoke billowing from the tires and air brakes, the rig stopping about two inches from my bumper. Skinny McLel-lan jumped out of the cab with a big smile on his face. I had not seen Butch for 25 years. “I knew it was you right away,” he said. We went into the restaurant and had a two-hour dinner and had a great visit.

Skinny McLellan was a real legend in Cran-brook. He would always drive the Byng Hotel float in the Sam Steele

Parade. He was a fixture at the Saturday after-noon jams. When he walked he was so light on his feet he seemed to float up to the stage. Once, at the Moose Hall in Kimberley, he broke up a fight simply by grabbing both scrappers and banging their heads together. It was funny to see.

Back then the Cran-brook guys did not like the Kimberley guys coming to Cranbrook whatsoever. Dating a girl in Cranbrook and taking her to a dance at the Bluebird Inn was asking for trouble. But Butch McLellan always had our back.

Rock and roll rivalries of the EKThe bands! The haircuts! The Bluebird Inn and the 1960s in Cranbrook and Kimberley

The Swingin’ Sounds of CKEKDuring the mid 1960s and early 1970s

CKEK Radio in Cranbrook pumped out The Beatles, The Animals, The Who, The Rolling Stones, Dave Clark 5, Paul Revere and The Raiders, The Monkees, The BeeGees, Peter and Gordon, and the Buffalo Springfield with Neil Young (Nizer James’ all time Favorite Band).

CKEK played the rock and roll hits of the era from morning until night, except on Sundays, when they would switch to Marty Robbins (El Paso), Percy Sledge, Don Ho (Tiny Bubbles), Roger Miller (Dang me), Pat Boone (Speedy Gonzalez) Mitch Miller and Dean Martin. Mondays could not come soon enough for us teenagers.

bouncer at The Blue-bird. He was a bear of a man with a heart of gold. Any fight that broke out at the Blue-bird was swiftly dealt with by Skinny.

I was there one Sat-urday night with The Epics when a scrap broke out. Butch was chatting with me at the time. He said “I will be right back,” then saun-tered over to the com-batants and grabbed each of them by the scruff of the neck. He threw each guy off of the wall about five feet up from the dance floor. Butch returned to con-tinue our conversation about 10 seconds later.

I remember being extremely impressed with Skinny. “Skin” played harmonica bril-liantly, and sang a few

A few weeks before the landmark deci-sion declaring aboriginal title proven by the Tsilhqot’in Nation, I picked up a used university textbook that looked like a handy reference.

Geography in British Columbia: People and Landscapes in Transition, by Brett McGillivray (UBC Press, Sec-ond Edition) is a good refer-ence, except where it strays from geography into politics.

This 2005 edition came out not long before the B.C. Treaty Commission started producing agreements, no-tably with the Tsawwassen First Nation. It recounts the establishment of the Ministry of Native Af-fairs by the Bill Vander Zalm government in 1990, and the election the next year of Mike Harcourt’s NDP, who reversed the province’s historical legal position and tried to accept the existence of aboriginal title.

At this point the textbook departs from the facts and leads its freshman pupils into left-wing dogma.

McGillivray writes: “When the Liberal Party won the 2001 election (with all but two seats), it launched a province-wide referendum on treaty negotiations, prompting commentators to suggest the government was ‘trying to impose 19th century ideas on a 21st century problem’.”

“Commentators” in the above quote is of course only one commentator, veteran lefty Vancouver columnist Stephen Hume.

This quote was indeed representative of the media consensus at the time. On TV, aboriginal leaders burned their ballots while denouncing the referendum as racist and divisive. The public, and later univer-sity students, were taught that Gordon Campbell’s government was exploiting

racism for political gain.In fact, this referendum

was one of a long series of efforts to untangle the legal knot left by Canada and B.C.’s failure to complete his-torical treaties after 1900.

Seven of the eight ques-tions in the 2002 referendum were simply to confirm the

existing position of B.C. treaty negotiators. The purpose, then as now, was to settle treaties.

The first question asked if private land should be exempt from expropriation for treaty settlements. Private property rights are not so much a 19th century idea as a 17th century one, defined in 1690 by John Locke.

What remains true today is that no soci-ety has made significant social and envi-ronmental progress without individual property rights. See the woeful state of most of Canada’s communally owned ab-original reserves, where individually owned property isn’t permitted.

The Tsilhqot’in dropped claims of property held by non-aboriginal residents from their appeal to the highest court, a wise move considering that pushing peo-

ple from their homes would lead to violent confrontations.

Other referendum questions related to preserving public access to Crown land for hunting, fishing and park use. All were en-dorsed.

The only new question asked if aborigi-nal self-government “should have the characteristics of local government, with powers delegated from Canada and British Columbia.”

Arguably, that’s what has emerged from the Tsilhqot’in case, which upholds pro-vincial jurisdiction over public forest poli-cy on environmental and fire protection on aboriginal title lands.

By 2009, frustrated with a lack of prog-ress, due to Ottawa’s inaction as well as inconsistent leadership from aboriginal communities, the Campbell government tried to cut the knot. Its proposed Recogni-tion Act would have accepted a form of aboriginal title across the province, based on 30 historical “indigenous nations.”

That idea originated not with the prov-ince but with the First Nations Leadership Council. It was rejected by a broader group of aboriginal leaders later that year.

The best way forward, also endorsed in the 2002 referendum, is sharing land use planning. B.C. has also begun sharing re-source revenues.

The most likely path, however, is back to court for years to come.

Barbarians satisfied with derby seasonEAST KOOTENAY ROLLER DERBY LEAGUE SPORTS BRIEFS

DAILY TOWNSMAN / DAILY BULLETIN

Kootenay Ice players attending NHL rookie camps

It may be the summer months, but a few mem-bers of the Kootenay Ice are back at the rink partici-pating in various NHL development camps.

Ice G Mackenzie Skapski (New York Rangers) has already been in the Big Apple attending his second rookie camp with the Blueshirts after getting drafted last year.

However, the new crop of Ice players who recent-ly became NHL prospects are getting their tires kicked by scouts in their respective camps.

Rinat Valiev is attending camp with Toronto, Sam Reinhart is in Buffalo, Jaedon Descheneau is in St. Louis and Tanner Faith is in Minnesota. Jon Martin is in Vancouver with the Canucks on an invite.

While those players are showing the NHL scouts what they’ve got, the Central Scouting bureau re-leased the 2014-15 Futures list on Tuesday, and two Kootenay members hit the rankings.

Defenceman Troy Murray and forward Zak Zbo-rosky were listed as players to watch for the upcom-ing season.

Both will be draft-eligible next year.The list also included players such as OHL phen-

om Connor McDavid and the USHL’s Jack Eichel, both highly-touted prospects who could go first overall in the 2015 NHL Draft.

All it took was three minutes and some pen-alty trouble.

Nursing a 16-point lead at the halfway mark of the EKRDL champi-onship in Kimberley on Saturday night, the Ba-varian Barbarians al-lowed the Invermere Killer Rollbots to close the gap near the end of the match until they were only three points away.

But then disaster struck, and the Rollbots took advantage with some power jams.

“The turning point was we got just a bit too excited,” said Nicole Ka-pell, who skates as Indi-ana Bones Crusher for the Barbarians. “We couldn’t calm down and we started getting super excited and started tak-ing some unnecessary penalties.”

Those late penalties were mostly for cutting the track—when a skater is pushed out of bounds and reenters the track

ahead of where she left it.

“Three of our four penalties that we got in the last six minutes was our jammers cutting the track, so they get pushed out and jump back in as soon as possible, and they cut in front of girls ahead of the other team,” said Kapell.

The Rollbots got power jams out of those penalties—and with the Barbarias unable to score points with their jammer in the box—the Invermere team was able to pull ahead and take a 166-153 win.

“We always have fun playing Invermere. I think we play them at least once a year for the last three years and this year we played them twice,” said Kapell.

“…We know a lot of the girls and it’s a good rivalry and we’re pretty evenly matched. This one was a 13-point dif-ference, the last one was a 12-point difference, so it’s been a really nice season playing against

them.”The Barbarians beat

the Rollbots during an earlier regular-season match that gave them first place in the league.

That will do it for the East Kootenay roller derby season, however, the Barbarians are hop-ing to host an exhibition match in August against

a team out of Moose Jaw. If anyone is interested in trying out roller derby, the Barbarians can be contacted through their Facebook page.

Germany crushes Brazil 7-1 in World Cup semifinal CHRIS LEHOURITES

Associated Press

BELO HORIZONTE, Brazil - Germany poured in the goals Tuesday to hand Brazil its heaviest World Cup loss ever with an as-tounding 7-1 rout in the semifinals that stunned the host na-tion.

Miroslav Klose scored a record-setting 16th career World Cup goal in a five-goal spurt in the first half as Bra-zil’s defence was torn apart.

The Germans reached their eighth final and will face ei-ther Argentina or the Netherlands on Sunday at the Maracana Stadi-um in Rio de Janeiro.

Previously, Brazil’s biggest World Cup loss was 3-0 to France in the 1998 final. This matched their biggest ever margin of defeat in any competition, equaling a 6-0 loss to Uruguay in 1920 in the South American cham-pionship, the predeces-sor of the Copa Ameri-ca.

“We wanted to make the people happy ... un-fortunately we couldn’t,” defender David Luiz said. “We apologize to all Brazil-ians”

It’s also Brazil’s first loss in a competitive match on home soil since 1975, when Peru won 3-1 at the very same Mineirao Stadi-um in the Copa Ameri-ca. Its last loss at home came in a friendly with Paraguay in 2002.

Brazil’s attack was weakened by the loss of Neymar, who fractured a vertebra after getting kneed in the back in the quarterfinal win over Colombia. But it was Brazil’s porous de-fence that was the big-gest problem in the first half as the host also sorely missed suspend-ed captain Thiago Silva.

On Tuesday, with Bernard playing as the third striker, Brazil at-tacked from the start. But they failed to get any solid chances, and it wasn’t long before the Germans opened up the defence and

started the rout.Toni Kroos and

Andre Schuerrle scored two goals each, while Thomas Mueller and Sami Khedira added the others.

Oscar pulled a late goal back for Brazil.

It was Germany’s biggest World Cup win since routing Saudi Arabia 8-0 in a group match in 2002.

It’s the first time Brazil had allowed five goals in a World Cup match since the 1938 tournament in France, when the team beat Po-land 6-5 in extra time.

LeBron James holds meetings in Las Vegas hotel

LAS VEGAS - LeBron James held meetings for more than three hours in a Las Vegas hotel Tuesday, leaving without giving any indication of what team he’ll play for next season.

The four-time MVP told The Associated Press he had “no complaints” when asked how free agency was going. He declined to say whom he had met with on Tuesday or whether he had made a decision of where he’ll play next.

James is expected to meet with Miami Heat Pres-ident Pat Riley before making a final decision on his NBA future, and a person close to the situation said that meeting had not happened as of Tuesday after-noon. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because no one has publicly announced the date of the meeting.

Some of James’ representatives have met with several teams, including the Cleveland Cavaliers.

On the the fourth anniversary of his announce-ment to leave the Cavaliers, James has the NBA waiting and guessing about his next move as a free agent.

Defence for Oscar Pistorius trial closes case

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa - The defence team for Oscar Pistorius closed its case in the ath-lete’s murder trial on Tuesday, bringing a legal case that has transfixed South Africans and others around the world closer to a verdict.

Final arguments are scheduled for Aug. 7-8.Lawyer Barry Roux said he had finished calling

witnesses to testify in the trial of Pistorius, who killed girlfriend Reeva Steenkamp by firing through a closed toilet door in his home.

“We close the case for the defence,” Roux said. Some witnesses did not want to testify for the de-fence because of the publicity surrounding the case, he said, adding that he chose not to ask Judge Thokozile Masipa to compel them to appear.

Chief prosecutor Gerrie Nel said the prosecution will file closing arguments on July 30 and the de-fence will do so on Aug. 4. He and Roux agreed to return to court on Aug. 7 to give final arguments before Masipa.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Trying to turn a daydream into a reality might be a lot to ask. You’ll connect with how positive the experience could be if you can manifest your desires. Others find you to be unique and full of surprises and sometimes unusual ideas. Tonight: Midweek break. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You choose the right words to help a friend heal or get past an obstacle. Let this person ex-press his or her feelings without judging. Your intuition might be stunned by an insight that you need to process. Why is this real-ization happening now? Tonight: Party and play away. Midweek break. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Though you are strong-willed and clearly know what you want, it is important to decide whether it might be more beneficial to let another party take the lead. As a result, this person will not only learn a lot about you, but also about him- or herself. Tonight: Say yes.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You might be taken aback by a boss or someone you care about enormously. Stay even and bal-anced as you eye his or her behav-ior and words. Understand what is motivating others when having a discussion. Ask questions if need be. You could be stunned by what occurs. Tonight: Put your feet up and relax. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Your imagination could easily go haywire, while others simply don’t explore any ideas, only ab-sorbing what they are hearing. You might decide to ask a ques-tion and/or use some other ploy to open up these people. News from afar could be quite a surprise. Tonight: Make imaginative plans. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might want to adjust to an-other person’s thoughts. You see a situation differently from a part-ner, though it might not be worth discussing and arguing as much as understanding his or her perspec-tive. You could be surprised at this person’s response! Tonight: To the wee hours. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22)

You might want to verify what you hear, especially if it comes from as associate who is very emotional. You could wonder what is really going on. Be your normally diplomatic self with this person. A loved one or part-ner could become erratic and emotional. Let this pass. Tonight: Strutting your stuff. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You might want to see a differ-ent perspective concerning an investment. Trust in your ability to read past the obvious. One of your sources might not be realistic, but they are imaginative. Go with change. Tonight: Treat yourself to that special item. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You might feel as if a loved one’s concept of you could be way off. Could it be that you are not real-istic about yourself? Keep that in mind when dealing with a diffi-cult person in your life. The unex-pected runs riot, and you love the change of pace. Tonight: Let go and enjoy yourself. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You might want to assume a low-key persona. Right now you want

to know more. The less said, the more likely another person will reveal his or her thoughts. A fam-ily member or a domestic matter surprises you. Tonight: Keep it quiet and exclusive. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You might not like what you hear when dealing with a child or loved one. You might want to know oth-erwise. A meeting and/or a dis-cussion with a friend reveals an-other perspective or story. Listen. Gather facts before handling the matter. Timing counts. Tonight: Where the gang is. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could take some extra time to handle an important person in your life. You often don’t see eye to eye. Rather than make it a big deal, consider understanding where this person is coming from. Showing interest can only help dissolve some of the problems. Tonight: A must appearance. BORN TODAY Singer, songwriter Courtney Love (1964), actor Tom Hanks (1956), Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld (1932)

Dear Annie: The current “fad” of glu-ten-free products is both beneficial and harmful to those of us who must follow a gluten-free diet because of celiac disease. On one hand, it’s easier to find gluten-free foods. But on the other hand, those of us with celiac disease are looked upon as if we are simply food faddists. Here are some of the problems we face: Restaurants are more aware of the need to serve gluten-free meals, but are often sloppy in their attempts to avoid cross-contamina-tion, not being aware of the extreme impor-tance of “not even a crumb.” When a hostess declares a dish to be glu-ten-free, does she understand the restric-tions of wheat, rye and barley? Will she be kind to us if we question her recipes? Will she be offended if we decline to partake? When we are at a dinner, we often hear such ignorant comments as, “Are you trying to improve your athletic performance?” or “Go ahead, a little won’t hurt you. Don’t be so fussy.” Can you help educate the public about the difference between celiac disease, which necessitates a gluten-free diet for medical reasons, and those who are simply making a personal choice? -- Cheryl in Pennsylvania Dear Cheryl: No one should treat eating restrictions as a “fad,” because you never know who truly has a serious problem. In people with celiac disease, eating anything with gluten triggers an immune response. It can damage the small intestine and make it difficult to absorb nutrients from food. Left untreated, celiac disease can lead to anemia, osteoporosis and lymphoma. In children, celiac disease can slow growth and weaken bones. There is often a genetic component. On the other hand, some folks are simply gluten sensitive. Eating gluten may make them uncomfortable or tired, and when they cut gluten out of their diet, they feel more energetic. “Cheating,” however, will not cause the severe symptoms of celiac disease. Dear Annie: I read your response to “Not a Christian,” who objected to a breakfast gath-ering that started with the blessing “in Jesus’ name.” You said it was inappropriate. I suspect the majority of the people in that room find comfort in this blessing, and the rest probably don’t care. Why offend many to make a very few happy? People like this are intolerant and selfish. If this person finds this blessing so offensive, he should move to another community or keep his mouth closed for the duration of the blessing. -- Karen from Wyoming Dear Wyoming: We know many find these blessings comforting, but others do not. Why offend anyone? This is not a religious gathering. It does not require a public prayer from any denomination, and it’s certainly not for the majority religion to impose its beliefs on the rest, no matter how few. Those who wish to give a blessing of any kind can do so at their own table instead of insisting on offering a prayer on behalf of others who would rather you didn’t. Here’s a truly toler-ant solution: Dear Annie: Many years ago, when I was a member of an international service or-ganization, we began each of our meetings with a prayer. I, too, felt the same as “Not a Christian.” So when I became president, I went to a bookstore and purchased a book that included prayers and readings from all denominations, including atheism and non-traditional religions. At each meeting, I chose a different prayer or inspirational message to read. The members felt that this was very infor-mative and learned a little bit each week about different religions. Perhaps this would be a solution to others. -- Betsy in N.J. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

Know It AllContinued from page 5

A 50 year school reunion of the Class of 1964 from Mt Baker Senior Secondary recently took place in Cranbrook. Once all the festivities were complete, the organizing committee found themselves with some remaining funds which were distribut-ed to help health care in the community. Class of ’64 represen-tatives Marilyn Dezall (left) and Susan Belzac (centre) present-ed a cheque of $500 to East Kootenay Foundation for Health executive director Donna Grainger to help purchase walkers for the East Kootenay Regional Hospital physiotherapy depart-ment.

From left to right,  Cora Tschetters from Sun Life Financial, Riane Woodman the May 2014 Burn Fund Calendar winner, and Fire Fighter Fergus Spowart.  Riane Woodman won two Sun Life Financial drink cups donated by Cora Tschetters as well as a Burn Fund coffee thermos and burn fund T-shirt.

S u b m i t t e dThis summer, Look Out-

side, an exciting new photo contest and initiative launched by Wildsight, invites everyone to grab their cameras (or their cell phones!), head outside and capture their favourite places in the Kootenays. 

Celebrating our connection to wild places and the wildlife that lives within them, Look Outside offers two different ways to participate. You can

submit your photos to our year-long photo contest at wildlookoutside.com for a chance to win amazing monthly prizes, grand prizes, and a chance to have your im-ages included in the Look Out-side community tour. Or, you can submit photos through social media channels such as Instagram, Facebook or Twit-ter, tagged #WildLookOutside. 

Pat Morrow, an award-win-ning local photographer and

mountaineer who is helping coordinate the initiative said, “Photography has been a prime motivator for exploring the Purcells ever since Albert MacCarthy took the first climbing action photos with his folding Eastman camera in 1916. Photos and video clips submitted to the Look Outside initiative and photo contest will celebrate the contempo-rary Purcell region—and also inspire the on-going need to

safeguard the wild.”  “Help us showcase the Pur-

cells and surrounding region by posting or submitting your photos,” said Juri Peepre, Wildsight board chair.

“The response to Look Out-side has been very positive. Personally, I can’t wait to get out and photograph my favou-rite places and see the region through other people’s eyes. I hope lots of people will join in!”

‘Look Outside’ photo contest launched

ASSoCiAted PreSSLONDON — A fresh Pink Floyd

album is on the way — 20 years after the band last released new material.

Spokesman Doug Wright con-firmed Monday that “The Endless River’’ will be released in October. It’s described as consisting of “main-ly ambient and instrumental music’’ based on 1993-94 recording sessions for the group’s last album, “The Divi-sion Bell.’’

“The Endless River’’ features

band members David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright, who died in 2008. Roger Waters, who left the group in 1985, is not involved.

Gilmour’s wife, writer Polly Sam-son, tweeted that the album “is Rick Wright’s swansong and very beauti-ful.’’

The psychedelic superstars sold millions of copies of albums includ-ing “The Dark Side of the Moon’’ and “The Wall.’’ They last performed to-gether at the 2005 Live 8 concert.

ham Nash feels opti-mistic that young peo-ple will once again change America for the better. So while he’s frustrated by political ideals surrounding is-sues like global warm-ing and marriage equal-ity, he realizes that “those powers against progress’’ will naturally run their course.

“They will all die at one point and the chil-dren will take over,’’ Nash said.

Then he added: “Do you know anybody under 25 that gives a damn whether you marry a man if you’re a man or if you marry a woman if you’re a woman? No.’’

Nash said that young people helped adminis-ter change in the 1960s

and ‘70s, and today’s young people will influ-ence their generation positively.

The 72-year-old member of Crosby, Stills and Nash spoke exclusively to The Asso-ciated Press on Monday after the Paley Center for Media hosted a dis-cussion with the trio re-garding their newly re-leased remastered box set commemorating

their 1974 tour with Neil Young.

The twice-inducted Rock and Roll Hall of Famer also shared his views on the nation’s highest court and its 5-4 decision to allow companies with reli-gious objections to avoid the contracep-tives requirement in President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul.

“It used to be that the Supreme Court was a very unbiased set of people. It’s not that way anymore. ... They made corporations people? They gave them, corpo-rations, religious rights? That’s insanity to me.’’

He also feels that Congress has been un-co-operative with the president since he took office.

“A lot of it is political power; a lot of it is be-cause he’s a black man. There’s a lot of racism in this country and we have to fight it. And the

way you fight it is by spreading information and letting as many people know as you can what you think is going on and let them make up their minds,’’ Nash said.

Nash feels that he and his bandmates — which sometimes in-cludes Young — have a responsibility in spark-ing social change though music and dis-cussion.

“We’re just one link in a long chain of musi-cians that try to make the world a better place.’’
