BARRY COULTERThe leader of the Liberal

Party of Canada made a stop in Cranbrook Sunday, July 21, turning Rotary Park into the local political event of the season.

It was less about politics, however, than it was about a summer vacation for Justin Trudeau and his family, in a part of the world that in his own words is very dear to him and his family.

Trudeau got off a large RV Sunday afternoon to be greeted by Cranbrook Mayor Wayne Stetski, Cranbrook’s youth ambassadors Maken-zie Yates and Alicia Leasak and an enthusiastic crowd of more than 150 people. The event was billed as a meet and greet, and Trudeau gra-ciously waded into the crowd, signing autographs, getting his photo taken — meeting and greeting — be-

fore heading over to the bandstand for a quick speech. Trudeau was ac-companied by his son Xavi-er, 6, and daughter Ella Grace, 4. His wife Sophie was feeling under the weather, Trudeau said, and wouldn’t be joining this particular event. His kids were happy to have a stopover in a park.

After the event, before heading off to Nelson, Trudeau told the Daily

Townsman of the emotional connection he and his family have with the Kootenays.

“This place is extraordi-narily special to me,” he said. “It’s the place my brother chose to live his life. We didn’t know he’d leave us at 23, but everytime I come back here I feel close to him. I’ll be in Nelson (Sunday night), and hopefully up to visit him at the lake tomor-row.”

Justin’s youngest brother Michel died in November, 1998, when he was swept by an avalanche into Kokanee Lake in Kokanee Glacier Park. Michel was never re-covered from the lake.

“I’m just overwhelmed by the strength of spirit of the people who live here,” Trudeau said. “The friendli-ness, the welcoming, just the strength of community around here, and how they

came together to support my family after we lost our brother.

“But also, in the following years, as I was more and more active with avalanche safety, I got to meet a whole bunch of people who were driven by the same love for mountains and strength of community leaning on each other.”

Ownership of Cran-brook’s historic Ar-mond Theatre is ex-pected to change hands on Monday after a cash offer prompted a court-ordered sale.

Listing agent Brian Burch said the building has been listed for sale since spring 2011 for $299,000, and a cash offer of $245,500 has been received.

Any other interested parties had until Mon-day, July 22 at 9:30 a.m. to put forward a com-peting offer.

On the site of Cran-brook’s old auditorium, the Armond Theatre opened its doors on March 19, 1952. A

Armond Theatre under the hammer Monday

The historic movie house in

downtown Cranbrook will go through a court-ordered sale this week

packed house flocked to view “An American In Paris” at the new state-of-the-art theatre.

The movie theatre was designed by Van-couver architectural firm Sharp, Thompson, Berwick and Pratt, who also designed campus buildings at the Univer-sity of British Columbia.

It was named for

original managing di-rector Armond Clark Blaine, who passed away before the theatre was completed.

The theatre boasted reinforced concrete construction with “ul-tra-modern” plastic doors leading into a handsomely appointed foyer. The main floor boasted ‘saucer-type’

seating, acoustically treated walls, air condi-tioning and the most up-to-date sound sys-tem available. A stadi-um mezzanine (balco-ny) was also included.

The building stands out on 10th Avenue, downtown Cranbrook, for its neon sign hang-ing above the awning and a painted Pepsi ad-vertisement on its exte-rior side.

When the new Co-lumbia Theatre at Tam-arack Mall opened in the late 1990s, the Ar-mond saw dwindling numbers, until it finally closed its doors in 1999.

A restrictive cove-nant was placed on the building – and remains to this day – that it can-not be used for a public movie house.

The most recent owner, Canadian Rocks Limited, purchased the Armond in 2005 for $250,000. Realtor Brian

Burch said that owner began renovating the property, including re-placing the roof, but was unable to finish it.

The Armond was listed for sale again in spring 2011 when the owner was unable to keep up with mortgage payments.

“In this case, the sell-er and the mortgage company cooperated in the court ordered sale. In other words they agreed not to contest the sale, so it was con-genial,” said Burch.

Only cash offers are considered and the offer must be free of conditions.

Now, a $245,500 cash offer has been re-ceived for this piece of Cranbrook history. This triggers a court hearing in Cranbrook Supreme Court on Monday, July 22. All offers must be registered in court be-fore 9:30 a.m. on Mon-day to be considered by the judge.

The judge will select the highest offer and order the sale, clearing the title in the process.

Burch said the build-ing needs repairs.

“It would cost $200,000 and not a nick-el under,” he said.

There are two bro-ken trusses under the roof, which would need to be repaired from in-side the building using scaffolding or lifts. Also, a leaking appliance under the roof has dam-aged the flushing.

Introducing Nutri MULTI for women featuring 1000 IU of VITAMIN D in a new

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.

Allergies Getting You Down?

Trudeau stops in for Cranbrook visitTrudeau was intro-

duced at the bandstand by Mayor Stetski, who told how he had met Justin Trudeau and the Trudeau family 13 years ago, working together on the Kokanee Glacier Alpine campaign in honour of Michel Trudeau, in order to build a new public cabin in Kokanee Gla-cier Park. With the help of the Trudeau family and others, more than $1 million was raised in this campaign.

That cabin was built 10 years ago.

Trudeau told the crowd that it’s always good to return to the Kootenays.

“I’ve spent many years out here, travel-ling, skiing, making friends, meeting friends … My first experience in the Kootenays was pad-dling down the Koote-nay River with my Dad (Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau), my brothers and John Gow, who taught us how to paddle in the Rockies. That was 25-30 years ago. To me this part of the world remains an extremely important part of my life.”

There was, of course, some talk of politics.

“This is an opportu-nity for me to connect with people — not nec-essarily to talk about

Politics with a Big P, but to talk about the chal-lenges we’re facing alto-gether, and how we’re best going to solve them.”

Trudeau said he couldn’t be in Cran-brook without giving a shout-out to Scott Nied-ermayer, “who’s been extraordinary over the past while with his ac-tivism. Scott is one of those people who’s al-ways focussed on doing the right thing and win-ning the right way as part of a team, and I’m touched to be in his hometown today.

“That kind of activ-ism that he’s engaged in now, that all of us are engaged in now, comes easy to us. We surround ourselves with beautiful places that we want to protect, we see our kids growing up and we want to make a better world for them.

“So why has politics itself become such a dirty word. Why are we always ready to work to-gether to build a better community and a better world, but as soon as it comes to thinking about politicians and public service that way, we turn away?

“It’s because over the past years politics has become and incredible source of cynicism. Be-cause it’s always easier

in politics to divide, to attack, to go negative, to calculate where the most votes are and play to them and ignore any-one who’s not likely to vote for you.

“You can actually get elected with a majority through the politics of division. It becomes very difficult to govern responsibly for the whole of the country and for the longterm in-terest that we hold, once you’ve got in the habit of division and at-tacks and negativity. That’s very much what I’m trying to turn around.”

Before getting back on the RV to head west, Trudeau told the Townsman the trip is about connecting about people and doing a little bit of politicking, “but it’s also about showing my kids an extraordi-nary part of the world. Its about convincing the folks in Ottawa that, yes, it’s a good idea to let me drive a big honking RV through the Kootenays. And I’m absolutely lov-ing it — this is what summers are supposed to be all about. Parks and barbecues and smiles — if I can use that to get politics a lit-tle more purchase with people in their everyday lives, then that’s what it needs to be.”

The feather in the cap of Cranbrook’s newly expanded fire hall, a fountain and landscaping project outside the hall was un-veiled on Friday, July 19.

Cranbrook’s mayor and council, fire chief, and staff from the fire department, adminis-tration and public works all gathered out-side the fire hall on 2nd Street South to see the now-bubbling fountain project completed.

“While there were some citizens who ex-pressed concern about the cost of the fountain, I think the outcome is quite spectacular,” said Mayor Wayne Stetski.

“This is a very positive addition to 2nd Street South and a nice fea-ture for our communi-ty; my thanks to all who were involved in the project.”

The fountain and landscaping was de-signed by the fire de-partment, then de-signed and constructed by public works staff, working around their busy schedules with other projects.

The fountain was designed so that from above it forms the shape of the Maltese Cross, the emblem fire-fighters wear on their uniforms.

The concrete forms were created by Steve Bell and Rob Keown using specially sourced

Fountains of celebrationCranbrook dignitaries, city staff,

firefighters and community members mark the official

opening of the fire hall fountain

materials to construct the unusual forms with tight turning radiuses. The forms have been saved by Public Works staff to lend out to other communities who may wish to construct their own similar fountains in the future.

The landscaping sur-

rounding the fountain was designed and built by city arborist Matthew Pocock, including its own irrigation and lighting systems.

Originally council set a budget of $50,000 for the landscaping project including con-struction of the foun-

tain, landscaping and curb work. But the proj-ect cost less than that, at $37,414.

“The project was completed under the budget authorized by council,” said fire chief Wayne Price. “This was possible due to the co-operation and utiliza-

tion of public works staff.”

The fountain, with deep footings and a solid concrete base, was built to last for a long time without heav-ing or settling.

“The intention of the landscaping design, in-cluding the fountain,

was to complement the building architecture and enhance the resi-dential neighbourhood in which it is located,” said Price. “We fell we have accomplished this with a feature that en-hances the area while representing the civic nature of the building.”

Cranbrook RCMP would like to speak to two people seen leaving the historic Elko train station before it caught fire early Wednesday morning.

“The RCMP are in-terested in speaking to a man and woman who were seen near the back

of the building just be-fore the fire started and left along the train tracks towards King Street,” said Cpl. Pat Prefon-taine.

Fire caused only minor damage to the historic Elko train sta-tion in Cranbrook in the early hours of Wednes-day, July 17.

The fire was started on the porch area of the building and spread to the attic and rear of the building before it could be extinguished.

The fire broke out at about 12:20 a.m. on Wednesday, July 17. Cranbrook Fire and Emergency Services rushed to the scene with two engines and four firefighters, soon fol-lowed by another 12 re-sponders.

Crews managed to extinguish the fire quickly, limiting the damage to the building.

“Our band is a source of confusion, some-times,” admits man-

dolinist Adrian Gross of Toron-to’s internationally-acclaimed bluegrass prodigies The Slocan Ramblers.

“Our bassist Alastair White-head spent all his summers in Kaslo with his grandfather, so there’s the Kootenay connec-tion. The ‘Slocan Rambler’ is an old ore mine near Kaslo.

“When the band started in 2009 we were just four young bluegrass musicians with no long-term plans. Our first gig came around, we needed a bandname, Alastair suggested it ... and off we went!”

The natural chemistry and energetic live shows of the Slo-can Ramblers have quickly made them the band to watch in Toronto’s thriving acoustic/roots music scene. They host a weekly residency at the Cloak & Dagger Pub, their debut album “Shaking Down the Acorns” (produced by Andrew Collins of the Creaking Tree String Quartet) has been warmly reviewed in Penguin Eggs magazine, and they re-ceived no less than three stand-ing ovations at the Mariposa Folk Festival. And they’re per-forming live in Cranbrook at Lotus Books the evening of Fri-day July 26th.

“It’s a very exciting time to be an acoustic roots musician in Toronto,” Gross says. “Many great players around; the scene’s always growing quick-ly. Lots of young bands flour-ishing and intermingling with older, established veterans. It’s interesting to hear American bands and realize there’s a de-

finitive Toronto bluegrass sound.”

Rounded out lineup-wise by guitarist Darryl Poulsen and Frank Evans on banjo, the Slo-can Ramblers are certainly earning their growing reputa-tion, which recently hit a high note at this year’s Toronto Jazz Fest, opening for Steve Martin and the Steep Canyon Rangers for an audience of 1700 who were all more than happy to hear them, er, ramble. And this being the Slocan Ramblers’ first Canadian tour, we asked Gross how they’re enjoying their ramblings.

“We enjoy it! We’re all close friends, and we’re either room-

mates  or  neighbours,  so we’re used to close quarters. For years now we’ve been perform-ing at least three nights a week, so it’s good to continue the mo-mentum. We work on new ma-terial by day on the road and try the ideas live at night. It’s exciting for us and the audi-ence. We hope to make touring a regular  occurrence...we’ve hard amazing things about roots music fans out west!”

  The Slocan Ramblers are currently working on their new album, as well as video shoots with Jadea Kelly and upcoming tours of the US and Europe. And when asked what advice the Ramblers have for other

hopeful roots musicians, Gross had this to say: “The best way to get yourselves out there is by playing tons of shows. Play lots of little shows wherever and whenever you can. Get every-one to know your band exists. That’s half the battle. We did it, and still do. That much playing gets you real tight as a band, and the sheer power of word-of-mouth exposure takes care of a lot of the rest.”

The Slocan Ramblers per-form live at Lotus Books (33-

10th Ave. S., Cranbrook BC) on Friday, July 26; showtime 8 pm.

The Slocan Ramblers are performing at Lotus Books in Cranbrook on Friday, July 26, at 8 pm.

S u B m i t t e dStarting on July 24, 185

Mormon young women and young men of the Cranbrook Stake of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints or-Mormon Church will be trav-elling the back country of Horseshoe Lake of the Cran-brook area for four days.

The young men and women will be taking part in an reenactment of the Mor-mon pioneers of the 1850’s who walked across the plains of the American west in their search of a new home and re-ligious freedom in the Salt Lake Valley of today’s Utah. The actual distance was 1,300 miles.

These youth will travel only 18 kilometres, but will experi-ence of the many hardships that their own ancestors did in the 1850s. Dress for the trek will be authentic pioneer clothing as sewn by many of

the youth.Many adults will be along

as well to act as ma’s, pa’s, aunts, uncle’s, grandpa’s and grandma’s. All will be reorga-nized into new families for the four day trek and encamp-ment. The mode of transpor-tation for the trek will be walk-ing with 15 handcarts used to carry the limited provisions needed for the four-day trek. No modern conveniences will be permitted.

During the trek, the youth will be involved with many ac-tual duties that their pioneer ancestors had to deal with. These includes making their own bread, and butter, baking cornbread and biscuits on an open fire, and cooking their evening meals with dutch ovens.

They will also experience visits by the local sheriff, a pony express rider, the native people, and famous Mormon

historical characters. There will be square dancing, fire-sides, and story telling around the camp fires.

Many hymns will be sung and played on various instru-ments that the early Mormon pioneers composed and sang on their treks.

In the 1850s, 62,000 Mor-mons walked across the Amer-ican plains to the Salt Lake Valley as this was the least ex-pensive way of reaching their new land and future homes. Many died along the way due to cold, lack of food, sickness, and other hardships. One of the first of these travellers to arrive in today’s Utah in the 1850’s was Brigham Young. He was instrumental in organiz-ing the many treks to the Utah territory.

The youth participating come from the many commu-nities of the East and West Kootenays. Many are descen-

dants of the early Mormon pi-oneers of the 1850s. Two of the organizers of the event are Jason Mallard of Fort Steele, and his wife, Linnea Mallard also of Fort Steele.

The handcart treks of the 1850s to the Utah territory en-abled the Mormon Church to develop and grow. These early treks are an important part of the history of the Mormon Church. Likewise, today’s treks bring to the young people of the Church an understanding of the faith that the earlypio-neers had in overcoming ob-stacles and in living their reli-gion.

The Cranbrook Stake in-cludes all the communities of the East and West Kootenays including Trail, Creston, Cas-tlegar and Nelson to the west, Golden and Invermere to the north, and Sparwood and Fernie to the east and to the Canadian border to the south.

“He who laughs last thinks slowest.” Murphy’s Law

My friend George was clambering with me down a rocky slope one afternoon. We’d been walking

the ridges and were tired and should have been more cautious, as befitted our con-siderable age. Anyway, about half-way down, George took a fall and crashed head over back-pack over ski pole to the scree at the bottom. I scrambled quick-ly down to him expecting to hear his dying confes-sion.

However, although bat-tered and bleeding, George sat up, looked vaguely at me and said, “Thank goodness that’s over.” To this day, I don’t know whether those words were of calm cour-age, stoic bravery or idiotic optimism.

When I took George to “emergency” I was forced to wait for him and found my-self sitting next to an elderly woman, who was reading the Daily Townsman. Nosy, I peered over her shoulder and noted with pride that she was reading one of my col-umns. Eventually, the lady closed the paper and carefully folded it, sighed, then placed it on a chair beside her. She then looked at me and said succinctly, “Thank goodness that’s over.” I felt crushed.

But a few weeks later a younger woman told me that she loved reading my “stuff” and then asked me why I

didn’t write longer stories. I puffed up my scrawny chest and admitted, “Most folk think ‘enough’s enough’ and can’t stand any more of my drivel at one time, and I agree with them.”

Enough is enough; that’s the way I feel about very long articles and books. I don’t have the attention span. Personally, I am a devotee of The Bathroom Reader. I don’t want to get involved with wading

through anything that out-lasts a healthy B.M.

The Bathroom Reader books contain reams and reams of almost factual anecdotes and reasonable facsimiles of actual events.

I learned only yesterday that scientists have resus-

citated two hundred million year old bac-teria. Where else could a person gain that kind of knowledge and then sit and pon-der why those scientists bothered? I’ve got bacteria everywhere, especially be-hind the fridge and in the milk jug inside.

And then I learned about a warrior queen in what is now Sudan who was also high priestess of Isis, fabulously rich, divine and monumentally fat. At the head of her troops, she used to ride into battle on an elephant. Now, that was enough of that for the nonce. My few remaining brain cells were agitated into action as they imagined the foofaraw when they hauled her majestic majesty aboard her ride.

And what about this little tidbit? I

read that a woman had sued her local hospital, saying that, after her husband had been treated there recently, he had since lost all interest in sex, and a hospi-tal spokesman replied, “The man was actually admitted in Ophthalmology — all we did was correct his eyesight.” So what else does a person need to know about this intriguing incident?

When I read that, in the late 19th cen-tury, the British used a travel agency to get their troops to Khartoum, Sudan, I stopped reading and let my so-called brain take over. Did the British govern-ment not know where Khartoum was? Did the Minister of War reckon he’d do better using an agency and maybe get group rates? Did General Charles Gor-don, with his ‘ahem’ reputation, have to ‘bunk up’ with some other officer? I was able to ruminate on this one for days.

Then, back in March I read some-where that the Russian cruise ship, Ly-ubov Orlova had gone missing off the coast of Newfoundland and was possibly drifting towards Iceland, I sat up. How do you lose a cruise ship? They’re huge; I’ve been lost, wandering hopelessly on more than one for days. Hasn’t the U.S. got sat-ellites up in space that can spot an errant ant in a corn field? Can’t they seek a Tali-ban fighter from hundreds of miles away and nail him? What’s going on there?

Anyway, that’s why stories should be too short; they leave so much to the imagination.

Well! Thank goodness that’s over.

It can never be too short

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

The curtain has fall-en on another season for the Rocky Mountain Bandits, which wrapped up their schedule with a split record against the Whitefish Glacier A team over the weekend.

Though the initial game was close up until the fifth inning, the Ban-dits lost their opener of the double header by 24-8, they came back and responded with a 7-3 win to finish off the double-header.

Bandits head coach Paul Mrazek said facing the Glacier A team was a good way to finish off the season, noting that

both games were com-petitive.

Their first game stayed competitive right up until the fifth inning, but the wheels fell off for the Bandits, and the Glaciers took advan-tage.

“We were hanging in there and then things went sideways,” said Mrazek.

However, the Bandits managed to settle down in the rematch and come out with a win to end their season.

“Ryan Philips pitched a complete game, he did really well, and kept the runners off base and we won 7-3,” said Mrazek.

“That was good, splitting with White-fish’s A team.”

As far as the season goes, Mrazek said their record of 11 wins is the best since 2008.

He added that the team showed some progress, especially with the young players that will be back with the squad next year.

“ M a n u f a c t u r i n g runs—we improved on

that, implementing hit and run, which last year, I started. We really hav-en’t hit and run in the past,” said Mrazek.

“We squeezed a lot and were successful with that, so being able to get that one run, to ensure that win—that sort of thing.”

Aside from the base-ball skills, there were also some important lessons learned from the mental side of the game,

“Learning not to panic when we’re up in the game,” said Mrazek. “It’s okay if we’re up by four and they score one, not to worry that the other team has a runner on base. Being able to

play through it and what’s important and what isn’t.

“The kids got a better understanding of the game and what different situations mean and that.”

The Bandits, namely their younger players, are looking at playing some baseball in the fall with a few Montana teams on a more infor-mal basis.

“Not necessarily a league but I just ex-pressed interest to Mon-tana teams,” said Mrazek. “Just to get some more weeks in and get some more time for the younger players to develop.”

Mickelson claims 1st British Open titleDOUG FERGUSON

Associated Press

GULLANE - Phil Mickelson is mystified no more by links golf. He has his name etched in a silver claret jug to prove it.

Mickelson delivered his best closing round ever in a major Sunday - at the British Open, of all places - when he ran off four birdies over the last six holes for a 5-under 66 at Muirfield to win the third leg of the career Grand Slam.

“This is such an accomplish-

ment for me because I just never knew if I’d be able to develop the game to play links golf effective-ly,” Mickelson said. “To play the best round arguably of my ca-reer, to putt better than I’ve ever putted, to shoot the round of my life ... it feels amazing to win the claret jug.”

At the end of a rough-and-tumble week along the Firth of Forth, Mickelson was the only player under par. He wound up with a three-shot win over Hen-rik Stenson, one of four players

atop the leaderboard during a final round that was up for grabs until Mickelson seized control in the final hour.

Lee Westwood, who started Sunday with a two-shot lead, fell behind for the first time all day with a bogey on the 13th and never recovered. He closed with a 75. Masters champion Adam Scott took the lead with a 4-foot birdie on the 11th, and closed as sloppily as he did last year. He made four bogeys starting at the 13th, and a final bogey on the

18th gave him a 72. At least he has a green jacket from the Mas-ters to console him this year.

Tiger Woods, in his best posi-tion to win a major since the crisis in his personal life, stum-bled badly on his way to a 74 and was never a serious chal-lenger.

Westwood said he didn’t play all that badly. Instead, he paid tribute to Mickelson for what will be remembered as one of the great closing rounds in major championship history.

Rays hit three homers to sweep Blue Jays

TORONTO - Luke Scott and Kelly Johnson hit back-to-back home runs Sunday as the Tampa Bay Rays again used the long ball to complete a three-game sweep of the Toronto Blue Jays with a 4-3 vic-tory.

Evan Longoria also went deep for the Rays (58-41), who hit seven home runs in the weekend series.

Toronto scored two in the ninth to cut Tampa Bay’s lead to one when Jose Reyes doubled home Josh Thole and Brett Lawrie, but Rays closer Fernan-do Rodney struck out Jose Bautista and got a ground balls from Edwin Encarnacion and Melky Cabrera to pick up his 24th save.

Canadian women’s rugby team defeats U.S. to win

Nations CupLONDON - Canada defeated the United States

27-3 to win the under-20 Nations Cup women’s rugby tournament Sunday.

With the victory, Canada becomes the only na-tion other than England to win the tournament.

“It’s a pretty important day in women’s rugby in Canada,” said head coach Sandro Fiorino. “These girls worked pretty hard and proved their point to the rest of the three teams here and the rest of the world. It’s pretty impressive of what we have in our country right now.”

Canada had a 10-3 lead at the break after a try by Emily Belchos and a penalty and convert by Jess Neilson.

Frederique Rajotte then scored two tries in the second half to put Canada out of reach, while strong tackling from DaLeaka Menin and Cindy Nelles held off the American offence.

Chris Froome wins 100th Tour de France

PARIS - Chris Froome won the 100th Tour de France on Sunday, having dominated rivals over three weeks on the road and adroitly dealt with dop-ing suspicions off it.

In two years, Britain has had two different win-ners: Bradley Wiggins in 2012 and now Froome.

Froome rode into Paris in style - in the yellow race leader’s jersey he took on Stage 8 and never relinquished, vigorously fending off rivals whose concerted challenges turned this Tour into a thriller.

Uniquely, the 100th Tour treated itself to a late afternoon start for its final Stage 21. The riders raced on the Champs-Elysees as the sun cast golden hues over the peloton and shadows lengthened over the dense, cheering crowds.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Your pace will change according to the dynamic of your present circumstance. Though you might head out the door with the inten-tion of running a lot of errands, your focus will shift to a creative opportunity instead. It is clear that your strengths are needed. Tonight: As you want. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Be sure that there are alternatives to what you are doing. Someone’s attitude could become annoying. The real issue is how to handle the situation. Explore different possibilities before automatically reacting; you will be empowered by the process. Tonight: In the whirlwind of life. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) How you see a personal matter could change with more informa-tion. You are gaining more clar-ity about the past few months. Err on the side of caution with spending, even if a risk seems extremely appealing. It just won’t be worth it. Tonight: Relax. Play a game or surf the Web.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your ability to understand oth-ers allows you to have greater give-and-take. Understanding evolves only if you know full well what you want to happen. Your emotions behind a decision could change. Sit on your feelings, as difficult as that might be. Tonight: Share with a loved one. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might walk out the door feeling insecure, yet return in the evening as an empowered indi-vidual. You could be weighing the impact of a Full Moon as you look at relationships and their possi-bilities. Recognize how much you have going for you. Tonight: Toss away insecurity. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You might want to use the morning to the max, especially when dealing with others. The afternoon would be best for do-ing research or for working on an independent project. You are processing a lot, and you might not be sure where you will land. Tonight: Make it yours. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) At first, you might be dragging

your heels, but by midafternoon, you will feel energized and ready for anything. Solutions seem to emerge, and you finally might be able to approach a loved one with whom you have had a tiff. Tonight: If at first you don’t suc-ceed, try again. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Someone at a distance will be encouraging you to do something differently. How you approach a matter could change dramat-ically. You might want to have a long-overdue chat. You could be surprised to find that you are not so vested in the outcome. Tonight: Happy to go home. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Use care with your finances. You might be taken aback by every-thing that is occurring around you. Return calls and emails. Remain sensitive to a vulnerable person who is close to you. You might feel as if you have too much to do. Tonight: Juggle your plans. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll feel some kind of shift midday, and you might wonder where it is coming from. Try not

to question what is happening within your immediate circle so much -- you will find out soon enough. A financial risk might not pan out for you right now. Say “no.” Tonight: Your treat. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’ll perk up and take a different approach. Your originality could cause some strong responses, and perhaps even a minor has-sle with a relationship. Know that this, too, will pass. A boss or someone you feel you need to answer to could be closed down. Tonight: As you like it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) The early hours are significant. You soon will come to a fork in the road, where you will need to make a choice. You will know what to do. The morning is better for interpersonal matters, where-as the afternoon points to getting more done. Tonight: Keep it a secret. BORN TODAY Singer Selena Gomez (1992), TV personality Alex Trebek (1940), sculptor Alexander Calder (1898) ***

Dear Annie: I find myself trying to keep every tiny bit of my life a secret since I got married -- not because I’m ashamed of anything, but because my in-laws make my business fodder for gossip. Every time I talk to them, it feels as if I am being interrogated. If I slip up and offer a small piece of personal news (such as an upcoming trip), they pep-per me with a million pointed questions try-ing to get details. I would be much more willing to share if, when I did mention a tidbit, I was told, “Oh, how wonderful for you,” and they didn’t press further or continue to spread my plans beyond present company. Instead, knowing that everything I say will be picked apart and broadcast to the universe, I clam up and am reluctant to say anything at all. Is there anything I can do to put off their questions in a polite manner while avoid-ing the impression that I’m being aloof and rude? -- Not an Interrogator Dear Not: You are under no obligation to respond to questions that are no one’s busi-ness, particularly if you know they will re-peat the information to everyone. However, if it is something innocuous (a promotion, for example), you should try to answer their questions honestly. If they tell the universe, you have no reason to be con-cerned. For other things, practice a sincere smile while saying, “There’s really noth-ing interesting happening. How have you been?” But we don’t believe your in-laws are being malicious. We think they find ev-erything about you more entertaining than what they are doing, and sharing it makes them feel important. Dear Annie: I will be sending out wedding invitations soon. The problem is, I don’t know what to do about my grandparents. They are still friends with my ex-husband, who is unstable and a bit scary. Last year, they didn’t hesitate to give my phone num-ber to his girlfriend when she asked. I was furious. They don’t have my new address be-cause I fear they would give it to my ex and he would show up and cause trouble. I worry that when my grandparents get their invitation, they will give my ex the date, time, place and my return address. The fact that they are family and love me would not stop them. They are stubborn and thought-less. They adore my ex and aren’t so crazy about my fiance. Should I send them the invitation and give them a stern talking to? I doubt it would do any good. Should I give them the informa-tion the day of the wedding so they have less time to share it? Of course, that would ne-cessitate asking other family members not to tell them anything, which would be difficult. Any advice? -- Burned by Family Dear Burned: You always have the option of telling your grandparents after the wedding takes place. But we assume you want them to be there. You could send Grandma and Grandpa a handwritten invitation, omitting your return address and the location of the wedding. Arrange for a friend to pick them up and bring them to the ceremony. On the assumption that other relatives will spill the beans, you also could ask another friend to act as “security” (or hire someone) to guard the door so your ex doesn’t show up uninvit-ed. Dear Annie: “Happy in Hawaii” recom-mended that teenagers participate in their school’s community service clubs so they are less influenced by their friends and won’t get into trouble. When I was a child, I learned a saying that I passed on to our four children. I think it helped them to become independent-thinking adults: “Of all excus-es this is most forbid, ‘I did it ‘cuz the others did.’” -- Marion, Mass.
