Al Pasin from the Kiwanis Club of Trail was on hand Thursday morning to help set up a blanket of greenery along the fence at Butler Park. Christmas tree sales begin this weekend, and this year's specimens of firs and spruce are quite magnificent.

'Tis the season for ornaments, lights, tinsel and evergreen trees and the Kiwanis Club of Trail is, once again, setting up its Christmas tree sale at Butler Park.
Starting on Saturday and up until the days before Christmas, the club will be selling trees
as a fundraiser that helps support over 30 chari-ties and non-profit organizations in the Greater Trail Area.
“It is our major fundraiser and we wouldn't be able to support the community without the Christmas tree sales,” said Brian Pipes, club director.

The Lower Columbia communities have agreed on one thing – that efforts to grow the local economy should remain a regional service for another three years.
Trail council signed off on an amended eco-nomic development bylaw during the Monday night meeting, agreeing to fund over 43 per cent of total costs for the service that covers Rossland, Warfield, Montrose, Fruitvale, and Areas A and B.
With Columbia Basin Trust agreeing to finance $50,000 annually toward the economic resource, Trail will pay about $76,000 annu-ally; Area A, $31,000; Area B, $17,500; Rossland, $28,000; Fruitvale $9,600; Warfield, $8,000; and Montrose $5,200.
The agreement was expected to go before the Regional District of Kootenay Boundary (RDKB) board Thursday evening for final assent.
“If approved there, and I see no obstacles at this point, we are good to go for three years,” said John MacLean, RDKB's chief administrative officer (CAO).
The newly amended agreement, differs in three key ways from the previous regional eco-nomic contract, which officially expires Dec. 31.
Cost sharing between the seven participants has been adjusted, and that factor seems to acknowledge Trail's boundary expansion pro-posal, should it proceed.
Mitigation between the city and the regional district hasn't begun, however the bylaw amend-ment could level the economic service's playing field somewhat if Trail envelops the Waneta Dam tax base.
The updated regional cost sharing formula is 100 per cent based on converted assessment, which means each municipality will pay based on the value of its land and improvements therein.
Previously, each participant's contribution was based on 50 per cent of its population base, and 50 per cent converted assessment.
“If the proposed boundary extension occurs in the future, the city's share would increase and exceed $100,000,” confirmed Trail's CAO David Perehudoff.
This year, the city and Area A, with higher assessment bases, will both pay a higher per-centage of the total budget as a result, he added.

FROM PAGE 1“The money goes to all the charities Kiwanis
supports. The money gets passed around. “I would go as far as to say that there is not a
person or family in this town that has not ben-efitted some way through the donations from Christmas tree sales, whether it is family or friends or someone they know.”
This year, the club has a large selection of many tree species, including some higher-end types.
“We will have the top three trees you can buy: Fraser Fir, Nordmann Fir and the other is the Noble Fir,” he said. “They are the best trees you can get. We try to bring in the best trees around.”
Along with the premium trees, Douglas Fir, the Alpine Fir and Colorado Blue Spruce will be available to buy.
Hauling the trees all the way to the Butler Park baseball diamond is quite the job, but the Kiwanis Club has a man for that.
“Andy Roberts from the Mountain Transport Institute does the runs for us at no cost,” said Pipes.
Once the trees arrived, the Trail Smoke Eaters and the Beaver Valley Nitehawks donated their time unloading the trucks and moving trees around to get ready for sales.
For those looking to buy a tree for their living room, Pipes says the prices will be set based on height and quality of the tree.
The Kiwanis Club will also have a spot for food hamper donations and Pipes encourages anyone who has a bit extra to bring some food for needy families.

The Salvation Army’s Christmas Kettle Campaign kicked off at Ferraro Foods Thursday with (front left to right) Linda Radtke from the church’s family services, campaign coordinator Reta Moores, Trail mayor-elect Mike Martin and volunteer Dolly Pressacco. Ferraro Foods always hosts the launch of the campaign that resulted in $31,500 going back into the community for those in need last year. Danny Ferraro of Ferraro Foods (back left) started the campaign giving a $500 donation to Major Wilf Harbin.

FROM PAGE 1Another difference is
that the service’s regulating body, the Lower Columbia Community Development Team Society (LCCDTS), will receive less money, $176,000 annually from the seven participants after Columbia Basin Trust okayed a $50,000 yearly contribution until 2017.
The previous contract had the communities pay-ing a combined total of $224,000 to the LCCDT yearly, with no help from a third party.
That number was deemed not sustainable by the majority of participants following a 2013 service review.
Notably, the new agree-ment stipulates that a review to determine the new ser-vice’s success is mandated for the last months of 2015.
“If following the review, their concerns are not addressed they then could give notice to be removed from the service and provide the 210-day notice,” said Perehudoff. “This applies to Trail as well.”
The other big change that takes all the “appear-ance” of politics out of the room this time round, is one that delineates who is allowed, or not, to sit at the table that makes monetary decisions.
The Lower Columbia Initiatives Corporation (LCIC) is a subsidiary of the society and receives flow through funding (now $226,000 annually) from that board to do all the leg-work of economic develop-ment in the area.
Those decisions could be construed as murky, or as a conflict of interest of an
elected official with respect to financial decisions that affect the LCIC.
The new agreement clears the air, and speci-fies that the composition of the 11-member LCIC board cannot have one elected official taking a seat.
Eight non-elected people will be nominated by the LCCDT, one non-elected member appointed by the City of Trail and two non-elected members jointly nominated by the other six jurisdictions.
The current non-elected board members are busi-ness professionals through-out the region who have an interest in advancing eco-nomic development, notes LCIC’s Terry Van Horn.
“They were selected either by the LCCDTS or other LCIC board mem-bers.”

Covering your mouth when cough-ing or sneezing isn't enough if you're planning on visiting a healthcare facility during the four months of flu season.
Anyone entering hospitals and other medical settings including long-term care homes who didn't get a flu shot, will be asked to own up and wear a mask, effective Monday.
A station is already set up inside the front entrance of Kootenay Boundary Regional Hospital (KBRH) that con-tains masks and hand sanitizer with additional points of supply available in all patient care areas.
"While staff will be able to assist visitors in the right way to put on the masks, they will not be enfor-cing it,” says Joanne Tench, KBRH's infection control practitioner. “The policy is in place because hospitalized
patients and seniors in residential care are more vulnerable to the flu than healthy adults. The intent is to protect patients who may already have serious health issues from get-ting sicker due to the flu.”
However, being vaccinated against the seasonal influenza doesn't mean flushing preventive practises like hand washing down the sink.
“We recommend that vaccination alone is not going to make enough of an impact if we don't look at the other very important public health and hygiene measures,” explained Dr. Lee MacKay, chair of Kootenay Boundary Division of Family Practise.
Surgical masks reduce the concen-trate of influenza virus expelled into ambient air when they are worn by someone shedding the virus, however Tench reminds people entering the hospital to wash their hands and use the provided hand sanitizer.

T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SVANCOUVER - A
B.C. Supreme Court judge has dropped civil contempt char-ges against dozens of protesters who were arrested at an anti-pipeline protest near Vancouver.
The order came Thursday after Kinder Morgan acknowledged it had used incorrect GPS co-ordinates when it sought an injunction related to
its Trans Mountain pipeline.
More than 100 people have been arrested on Burnaby Mountain, including Grand Chief Stewart Phillip of the Union of B.C. Indian Chiefs, who crossed the police line earlier on Thursday.
Kinder Morgan is conducting drilling and survey work at the site related to the proposed expansion
of its Trans Mountain pipeline.
While that was unfolding, a law-yer for the com-pany asked Cullen to expand an injunction that has been used to arrest more than 100 people, includ-ing Phillip. Nearly all of them have been charged with civil contempt for violat-ing the order.
A company law-yer said the GPS co-ordinates used in the initial injunction application - and, subsequently, in the court order - were inaccurate.
The company wants the co-ordin-ates updated and the injunction’s timeline extended.
“What’s happened thus far is that appar-ently people have been arrested on the basis of an order that
refers to some other piece of property,” Cullen said, prompt-ing laughs and jeers from the courtroom’s crowded public gal-lery.
“The concern is that people have been arrested and sub-jected to restraints on their liberty,” he con-tinued later.
A hearing related to the protesters’ contempt charges has been scheduled for Jan. 12. Cullen sug-gested that may be too long to wait if the charges are in doubt, but it wasn’t clear if he planned to take action sooner.
Company law-yer William Kaplan acknowledged the GPS error poses a problem in the con-tempt cases, but he said it should be dealt with at another time.
He suggested the
arrests may still be valid because they happened in a plot of land with the same municipal property identification num-ber, or PID, referred to the injunction, even if the GPS co-ordinates were incorrect.
“It’s clearly an issue that relates to any arrests for civil contempt,” Kaplan said of the incorrect GPS co-ordinates.
“I understand there is a prosecu-tion problem with that, because I’ve just said something that gives every counsel who is defending the civil contempt issue an argument that says, ‘If the order is ambiguous, you can’t convict under it.”’
Regardless, Kaplan said the changes the company is seeking would clear up those problems in any sub-sequent arrests.
“A continuation of the uncertainty
doesn’t help,” Kaplan said.
Kinder Morgan is conducting drilling at two sites on Burnaby Mountain, which is home to a conserva-tion area and Simon Fraser University, as it prepares for the fed-eral approval pro-cess.
The company’s preferred route for the expanded Trans Mountain pipeline would tunnel through the mountain.
The energy giant has completed work at one drilling site, which is located along a roadway and where the majority of the demonstrations have been focused.
However, it says crews likely won’t be finished at a second drilling site, which is located deep into the forest, until after the current injunction deadline of Dec. 1.
It was at that second site that
Phillip, the grand chief, was arrested on Thursday morning. Like many pipeline opponents before him, Phillip announced his intention to be arrested before walk-ing past a police line that surrounded the work site.
Phillip and his supporters trekked through dense brush to the work site. He was arrested to the beat of a native drum and singing.
“I said that if push came to shove and there were arrests, that I would stand with the courageous people that were will-ing to be arrested as a matter of principle,” he said before his arrest.
“We need to reclaim this coun-try ... and return it back to the voices of the people that have invested a lifetime of hard work to build this province.”
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S STERRACE, B.C. - A
group of Tahltan elders say they are being permanently kicked off a gold and copper mine site in their traditional territory by a B.C. min-ing company behind a
massive tailings pond spill.
The elders, call-ing themselves the Klabona Keepers, blockaded Imperial Metals’ nearly-com-pleted Red Chris mine in northwestern B.C.
after its Mount Polley mine in the Interior suffered a breach in August, sending a surge of effluent into nearby waterways.
The Klabona Keepers say the com-pany’s injunction and an enforcement order against them was granted in provincial court in Terrace on Wednesday, although they have already stood down their blockade for a month.
Imperial Metals was granted a temporary injunction in October, but sought the more permanent court order by arguing blockaders were preventing work on the nearly-complet-ed mine.
Tahltan elder Bertha Louie says she expected the court would rule in favour of corporate interests, and feels stripped of her inherent rights and title.
The ruling comes just as Kinder Morgan applies to expand an unrelated injunc-tion granted last week against protesters at a Metro Vancouver con-servation site where it is drilling for a pro-posed pipeline expan-sion.

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SLONDON - P.D. James took the
classic British detective story into tough modern terrain, complete with troubled relationships and brutal violence, and never accepted that crime writing was second-class literature.
James, who has died aged 94, is best known as the creator of sensi-tive Scotland Yard sleuth Adam Dalgliesh.
But her wickedly acute imagin-ation ranged widely, inserting a murder into the mannered world of Jane Austen in “Death Comes to Pemberley” and creating a bleak dystopian future in “The Children of Men.”
James told the Associated Press in 2006 that she was drawn to mystery novels because they “tell us more ... about the social mores about the time in which they were written than the more prestigious literature.”
Publisher Faber and Faber said James died peacefully on Thursday at her home in Oxford, southern England.
Faber, James’ publisher for more than 50 years, said in a state-ment that she had been “so very
remarkable in every aspect of her life, an inspiration and great friend to us all.”
James’ books sold millions of copies around the world, and most were just as popular when adapted for television.
Because of the quality and care-ful structure of her writing - and her elegant, intellectual detective Dalgliesh - she was at first seen as a natural successor to writers like Dorothy L. Sayers, creator of Lord Peter Wimsey, in the between-the-wars “Golden Age” of the mystery novel.
But James’ books were strong on character, avoided stereotype and touched on distinctly modern problems including drugs, child abuse, terrorism and nuclear con-tamination.
Novelist A.S Byatt said the real-ism of James’ writing was one of its strengths.
“When people in her books died the other characters’ lives changed as they would in real life,” Byatt told the BBC. “Phyllis (James) was working with real people that she cared about.
“The world will be a worse place without her.”

Iconic mystery novelist dies
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SW H I T E H O R S E
- One of the Yukon’s last surviving aborig-inal veterans from the Second World War has died after a lifetime of achievements, but it was his warm sense of humour and story-telling skills that have etched his memory into the hearts of all who knew him.
Alex Van Bibber, who was a member of the Champagne and Aishihik First Nations and hailed as a legend-ary outfitter, trapper and educator, died in a Calgary hospital on Wednesday. He was 98.
“The Yukon without Alex is like a day with-out sunshine,” Kelly Hougen, his longtime trapping partner and best friend, said.
“It’s been sunny since I got here (last week), and the day Alex passed away, it got overcast.”
Van Bibber was weakened by pneu-monia and influenza in his final days and died surrounded by nearly 30 friends and family members who had flown from the Yukon to be with him.
Fourteen years
ago, Hougen said Van Bibber sat alone on a gravel bar in the northern Mackenzie Mountains, enduring a snowstorm.
At age 84, he wasn’t letting age or the ele-ments deter him from meeting up with a fellow hunter in the remote reaches of the Northwest Territories.
“I had dropped him off from an airplane,” Hougen said.
“He didn’t have all his gear yet, and a front came through that was just nasty, snowing and blowing.”
Worried, Hougen flew back through the storm to check up on Van Bibber.
“He had a fire going, and basically scolded me for coming to get him. That was the kind of guy he was.”
Van Bibber would continue to hunt and teach for the next decade and a half. He began to pass on his traditional knowledge more formally as chief trapping instructor with the Yukon gov-ernment in 1976.
He’d been skilled in the bush for 60 years - even guid-ing then-U.S. senator
Robert Kennedy up the Yukon’s Mount Kennedy in 1965 and presenting him with a gold sheep-head neck-tie.
Van Bibber was formally recognized with several awards
including the Order of Canada in 1992, the Yukon Fish and Game Association Sportsman of the Year Award in 1995, and the Canadian Wildlife Federation Roland Michener Award in 1996.

OPINION
Facts show money does buy happinessNo one wants to
appear shallow, So it’s no sur-prise that there
are countless books and articles out there that go to great lengths to con-vince us that money does not buy happiness.
The problem with the money-doesn’t-buy-hap-piness theory is that the facts don’t support it. A large body of empirical research reveals a strong positive correlation between money and hap-piness.
Not everyone who is poor is unhappy and not everyone who is rich is happy.
Nonetheless, the high-er your annual household income, the more likely you are to report that you are happy on a day-to-day basis and that you are satisfied with how your life is going.
The bigger problem with the money-doesn’t-buy-happiness theory is that its well-intentioned efforts to remind us that there is more to life than money can take the focus
off the ongoing need to create the jobs and eco-nomic conditions that facilitate happier lives.
A recent piece by Robert Fulford in the National Post entitled “Explaining the rich man’s misery” is a case in point.
Fulford is right: some rich people are very unhappy. This should not be a big surprise to any-one.
Unless you are like Scrooge McDuck and enjoy diving into piles of coins, you probably agree that money alone is not enough to ensure a happy life.
Good relationships, a sense of purpose, time to relax and genetics are just some of the other factors that affect an individual’s happiness.
But this does not mean, as Fulford suggests, that “psychologists, sociolo-gists and other social sci-entists have discovered that money does not in fact bring happiness.”
A 2009 Gallup survey that included 450,000 interviews with Americans
was used by two Princeton happiness experts to show that day-to-day happi-ness grows with house-hold income up to about $75,000. (Unfortunately, we don’t have good data like this for Canada, but the basic pattern is likely to be the same.)
Day-to-day happiness is measured by asking respondents a battery of questions about how they felt the day before the sur-vey such as did you feel joy, were you stressed-out and did you laugh and smile a lot?
Because it’s often left out when the Princeton
study is cited, it’s import-ant to note that day-to-day happiness plateaus, but does not drop, after $75,000.
More money does not lead to more misery.
According to the same study, a second measure of happiness – a person’s sense of satisfaction with their life overall – rises with income and keeps rising past $75,000.
These statistics are averages, so there are exceptions.
Nonetheless, someone with a household income of $20,000 is more like-ly to say they are less happy (on both a day-to-day basis and in terms of life satisfaction) than someone with a house-hold income of $40,000 or $80,000 or $160,000.
Admittedly, we do not fully understand the rela-tionship between happi-ness and income. This is especially true when com-paring the average hap-piness levels of different countries.
Paraguay, for example, is the happiest country in
the world in terms of day-to-day happiness, but it doesn’t even make the top 100 when it comes to per capita GDP.
Despite this, we know that money and happiness are linked on an individ-ual level for most people.
It may not be inten-tional, but the mantra that money does not buy happiness implies that being poor may not be such a bad thing and that efforts to raise incomes are misguided.
It’s easy for the guy who has quit his well-paying job and retired to his mortgage-free cabin to denounce soul-destroying materialism and celebrate the joys of a more simple life.
It’s a lot harder to take this path when you are working two low-paying jobs just to make the rent and feed your kids. For most of us, money makes life better.

“We will not be cowed by these sick terror-ists,” said British Prime Minister David Cameron
after ISIS produced a grisly video of the mass beheading of Syrian captives by foreign jihadis who allegedly included British fighters.
“We will not be intimidated,” said Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper after the recent attacks in Montreal and Ottawa. As if the purpose of terrorist attacks in Western countries was to cow and intimidate them.
You hear this sort of rhetoric from Western leaders all the time, but Harper went further, and demonstrated exactly how they get it wrong. “(This) will lead us to...redouble our efforts to work with our allies around the world and fight against the terrorist organizations who brutalize those in other coun-tries with the hope of bringing their savagery to our shores. They will have no safe haven.”
Sound familiar?Sure enough, there are now
half a dozen Canadian planes bombing ISIS jihadis in Iraq (although it’s unlikely that either of the Canadian attack-ers, both converts to radical Islam, had any contact with for-eign terrorist organizations). But Harper has got the logic completely backwards.
The purpose of major ter-rorist activities directed at the West, from the 9/11 attacks to ISIS videos, is not to “cow” or “intimidate” Western coun-tries. It is to get those coun-tries to bomb Muslim countries or, better yet, invade them.
The terrorists want to come to power in Muslim countries, not in Canada or Britain or the U.S. And the best way to establish your revolutionary credentials and recruit local supporters is
to get the West to attack you.
That’s what Osama bin Laden wanted in 2001. (He hoped for an American invasion of Afghanistan, but he got an unexpect-ed bonus in the U.S. invasion of Iraq.) The ISIS videos
of Western hostages being beheaded are intended to get Western countries involved in the fight against them, because that’s how you build local sup-port. So far, the strategy is working just fine.
The “Global Terrorism Index”, published annually by the Institute for Economics and Peace, reported last week that fatalities due to terrorism have risen fivefold in the 13 years since the 9/11 attacks, despite the US-led “war on ter-ror” that has spent $4.4 tril-lion on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and anti-terrorist operations elsewhere. But it’s not really “despite” those wars. It’s largely because of them.
The invasions, the drone strikes in Pakistan, Yemen and Africa, the whole lumbering apparatus of the “global war on terrorism” have not killed the terrorist beast. They have fed it, and the beast has grown very large. 3,361 people were killed by terrorism in 2000; 17,958 were killed by it last year.
At least 80 percent of these people were Muslims, and the vast majority of those who killed them were also Muslims:
the terrorists of Islamic State (ISIS) in Iraq and Syria, Boko Haram in Nigeria, the Taliban in Afghanistan and Pakistan, and al-Qaeda and its offspring in other parts of the world (like al-Shebab in north-east Africa).
Only about 5 percent of the victims of this latest wave of terrorism lived in developed countries, but it was their deaths, and their governments’ ignorant responses to them, that provided the fuel for the spectacular growth of jihadi extremism. So what can be done about it?
The Global Terrorism Index has some useful observations to offer about that, too. It points out that a great many terror-ist organizations have actually gone out of business in the past 45 years. Only 10 percent of them actually won, took power, and disbanded their terrorist wings. And only 7 percent were eliminated by the direct appli-cation of military force.
Eighty percent of them were ended by a combina-tion of better policing and the creation of a political process that addressed the grievances of those who supported the terrorism. You don’t fix the problem by fighting poverty or raising educational levels; that kind of thing has almost noth-ing to do with the rise of ter-rorism. You have to deal with the particular grievances that obsess specific ethnic, religious or political groups.
And above all, keep foreign-ers out of the process. Their interventions always make mat-ters worse. Which is why the terrorists love them so much.

November 30 marks the end of an era for our friend, Jim Nelson, former mayor and councillor of the Village of Warfield.
A true gentleman who served his community to the highest degree.
There may be some of you who do not know what Jim has accomplished in his life here in the Village.
Jim spent 36 years in the Warfield Volunteer Fire Department and 17 years as Fire Chief. He was also the past president and founder of
the Warfield Credit Union, now known as the Kootenay Savings Credit Union, as well as serving as president of the Trail and District United Way.
Jim was instrumental in forming a national association of the” Canadian Volunteer Fire Services “and served as a presi-dent there.
Of course, there is always a woman behind the man, but in this case, I will say, the lady, beside the man, Jane Nelson who has supported her husband in every way.
Jim, along with Jane have
never forgotten to thank the Volunteers who support the Village of Warfield.
Our friend, Jim is a true gentleman, modest and respect-ed by many.
It is an honor to have both Jim and Jane Nelson as friends of our family.
After over 60 years of service to the Village of Warfield and to the Volunteer Fire Department, he turned in his key and left with out fanfare, quietly.

The fundamental fact of existence is that this trust in God, this faith, is the firm foundation under everything that makes life worth living. It’s our handle on what we can’t see… (Message Hebrew 11:1,2)
The other day as I was driving down the road and daydreaming; a Brooks & Dunn song on the radio caught my attention:
I can’t quote the book The chapter or the verse, You can’t tell me it all ends In a slow ride in a hearse, You know I’m more and more convinced The longer that I live,Yeah, this can’t be No, this can’t be No, this can’t be all there is
I raise my hands, bow my head,I’m finding more and more truth in the words written in red,They tell me that there’s more to life than just what I can seeI believe Oh, I believe
Unfortunately our eyes don’t give us the full picture; there is much more to life than what we can see and touch. Death more than anything else brings this truth home to us - when we let go of a loved one, not seeing them but somehow knowing they live on. Even when it comes to our own mortality, does it end with a slow ride in a hearse?
Faith, trust in God, is the foundation for all our living. Some may call it nonsense, but it is our life. Whether we live or die, our existence is in God. Jesus said of himself, “ I am the resurrection and the life, if any man believes in me even though he dies he shall live”. These words are written in red, my friend.
St. Augustine wrote, “ Faith is to believe what you do not see; the reward of this faith is to see what you believe”.

T h e C a n a d i a n P r e s sVATICAN CITY — When a pope last visited
Turkey — Benedict XVI in 2006 — Muslim-Catholic tensions were so high that the Vatican added a stop at Istanbul’s famed Blue Mosque at the last minute in hopes of showing Benedict’s respect for Islam.
Pope Francis travels to Turkey this weekend amid new Muslim-Christian tensions and war next door, with Islamic State militants seizing chunks of Iraq and Syria and sending 1.6 million refugees across the border into Turkey.
Francis is expected to tread lightly during his three-day visit, sensitive to the delicate diplo-matic tensions at play between Turkey and the international coalition fighting the Islamic State.
But Vatican officials say he will not shy from denouncing violence in God’s name and voicing concern for Christians being targeted by the extremists. Remarkably, though, Francis will not meet with any groups of refugees as he has done on previous trips to the region, a clear sign of the Vatican’s unwillingness to wade too deeply into the conflict.
TO PRAY OR NOT TO PRAYWhen Pope Paul VI made the first-ever papal
visit to Turkey in 1967, he fell to his knees in prayer inside Haghia Sophia, the 1,500-year-old site in Istanbul that was originally a Byzantine church and was turned into a mosque after the Muslim conquest of Istanbul — then known as Constantinople — in 1453.
The Turks were not pleased. They staged protests, claiming Paul had violated the secular nature of the domed complex, which is now a museum.
Asked if Francis would pray when he visits the massive complex on Saturday, the Vatican was noncommittal. “We’ll see what he does,” spokes-man the Rev. Federico Lombardi said. “If while there the pope personally experiences a moment of spiritual meditation, we’ll have to see.”
AND THE BLUE MOSQUE?Benedict became only the second pope to
step foot in a Muslim house of worship when in November, 2006 he visited the 17th century Sultan Ahmet Mosque in Istanbul, Turkey’s most important.
There, he took off his shoes, bowed his head and closed his eyes for nearly a minute in prayer alongside an Islamic cleric in a dramatic gesture of outreach to Muslims.
The mosque visit was added late to Benedict’s schedule in a bid to soothe Muslim anger over his now-infamous speech in Regensburg, Germany linking violence to the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad.
Asked if Francis would pray in the mosque as Benedict did, Lombardi took pains to stress the difference between a formal, ritualistic prayer that a Catholic might recite in church and a respectful “spiritual meditation” in a place of worship of another faith.
Turkey’s ambassador to the Holy See, Mehmet Pacaci, said the tensions that overshadowed Benedict’s visit are “mostly a forgotten issue.”
CATHOLIC-ORTHODOXTechnically speaking, the real reason for the
visit is for Francis to visit the spiritual leader of the world’s Orthodox Christians, Patriarch Bartholomew I.
The two major branches of Christianity repre-sented by Bartholomew and Francis split in 1054 over differences in opinion on the power of the papacy, and the two spiritual heads will partici-pate in an ecumenical liturgy and sign a joint declaration in the ongoing attempt to bridge the divide and reunite the churches.

Top court to hear B.C. checkstop
cases
T H E C A N A D I A N P R E S SOTTAWA - The Supreme
Court of Canada has agreed to hear a pair of cases involving drivers stopped by police at roadside checks.
One of the cases involves
a British Columbia man who got a warning reading after blowing into a road-side screening device.
Lee Michael Wilson received a three-day driv-ing ban in September 2012
after the roadside device registered a blood-alcohol level in the warning range.
He took the issue to the B.C. Supreme Court, which dismissed the roadside pro-hibition, saying there was
no evidence indicating Wilson’s ability to drive was affected by alcohol.
But the B.C. Court of Appeal later overturned the lower court’s ruling.
The other case involves
six B.C. drivers who either refused to give a breath sample or registered a fail on a roadside screening device. They challenged the province’s automatic road-side prohibitions.
B y C a r o l y n G r a n tKimberley BulletinAlthough a staff
report presented Kimberley City Council with an option of deferring adoption
of bylaws to allow the sale of Kimberley Golf Course lands for a small housing develop-ment, council opted on Monday evening to adopt the bylaws
amending the Official Community Plan and changing the zoning.
There had been con-cerns about the sale of the 9.6 hectare prop-erty. Those included
concern about the proposed use of on-site sewage systems rather than city sewer, poten-tial impact to the rural character of the St. Mary Valley, potential
impact to badger habi-tat (red-listed species) and on other wildlife habitat and corridors, impact of the drive-ways on traffic on St. Mary Lake Road, and concerns about trans-parency and public engagement.
Councilor Darryl Oakley asked Troy
Pollock from the plan-ning department if there was going to be anything set up to allow animals move-ment from the river up to the road, ie. not allowing fenced prop-erties.
Pollock said there are 40 feet of setbacks between dwellings
but fencing is allowed under the bylaw.
Coun. Albert Hoglund asked if the fencing issue could be dealt with as the development planning continued and Pollock said there would be an opportunity for con-versation.
Coun. Kent Goodwin said he had some concerns about allowing septic sys-tems within city limits, but they are somewhat offset by the fact that the sale of these lands helps a Kimberley non-profit, namely the Kimberley Golf Club. Goodwin said he felt this was not a preced-ent for other develop-ers for that reason.
“We are allowing development on an upper bench and get-ting parkland down below, which is pretty good habitat. It’s a worthwhile trade. Because the golf course is right next to it, wildlife can move.”
Goodwin said the other issue was river access for the pub-lic. There is a right of way to the river where a road could be developed and he sug-gested perhaps taxes from the new develop-ment could be set aside to pay for the road.

players travel to the coast this weekend with the Kootenay Regional Soccer Academy to hit the pitch at the Star Fire Showcase Soccer Tournament in Seattle.
“This is the first time the Kootenay WhiteCaps team has attended,” said coach Brett Adams. “We’re not going there with any expectations, but . . . we expect each individual to perform to their own high stan-dards.”
Goalkeeper Paige Gattafoni of Trail will backstop the U17 Girls soccer team, while Brady Stevens will don the cleats as an
attacker for the U16 Kootenay team.
Their commitment has been well noted by Adams for their exten-sive travel to practice in Nelson each week, but the coach is even more impressed with their talent.
“Paige is phenom-enally talented as a goalkeeper . . . she is certainly one of the best if not the best in the Kootenays, and were excited to have her on board. And Brady is new to the program, but certainly given it her all and cemented her spot in the Academy.”
The two teams will be up against some stiff competition at the U.S. Thanksgiving week-
end tournament, and will kick off the event today with the U16 team playing the West Vancouver Rangers at 6:15 p.m. and the U17 Girls versus the Victoria Highlanders at 8:45 p.m.
The teams include players from the West and East Kootenay region. Since Adams was named head coach in October of 2013 he has seen the Kootenay Soccer Academy grow from about 90 players to 350 current pros-pects.
The teams will play two games each on Saturday before wrapping up the tour-nament with games against Seattle United on Sunday.

The Beaver Valley Nitehawks will face the Creston Valley Thunder Cats and Grand Forks Border Bruins this weekend in KIJHL action.
The third-place Hawks have a golden oppor-tunity to make up ground on Neil Murdoch division leading Castlegar Rebels and the second-place Nelson Leafs, as the Leafs and Rebels face off against each other in a home-and-home.
The Nitehawks split a pair of games last week-end including a 4-1 win over the Leafs, while the Rebels were on a roll taking three straight, including two from Grand Forks and a 5-3 win over Spokane Tuesday. The wins put them five points up on B.V., with the Hawks enjoying two games in hand.
“It’s been a bit of an ebb and flow, more than we’ve seen lately but it’s tight and I don’t think there are too many years where approaching half way through the season some teams to be where
they are,” said Nitehawk assistant coach Kevin Limbert.
The Hawks have been without Jace Weeger and Kyle Hope up front, but the two forwards are day-to-day and expected to return to the lineup soon.
“Kyle brings a ton of energy and has been playing really well as of late, and so has Jace who brings a scoring touch that we definitely missed on Friday,” said Limbert. “Both guys are big pieces of our lineup but at the same time when those guys are out, you have to have the rest of the guys pick up the slack.”
After a good start, Creston has lost three of its last four games, dropping to fourth spot in the Eddie Murdoch division with a 11-10-0-3 record, 10 points behind front-running Fernie. B.V. won their first meeting of the season, 2-1, at the Hawks Nest on Oct. 25 and will look to take advantage of the slumping Cats tonight in Creston.

B y T i m e s s T a f fThe Selkirk College Saints
will be shooting for a strong fin-ish to the first half of the season this weekend when they take on the University of Victoria Vikes at the Castlegar Recreation Centre.
The defending British Columbia Intercollegiate Hockey League (BCIHL) cham-pions are getting set to head into the Christmas break and currently sit six points behind the first place Trinity Western University Spartans.
Challenged by an unusual amount of injuries and strug-gles on the road, the Saints are eager to regain the top ranking they’ve become accustomed to over the past two seasons.
“There is so much parody in our league this season,” says Saints head coach Alex Evin. “Each weekend the standings change, so it makes each game important. One winless week-end in the Lower Mainland put us from second place to fourth place.
“Our players realize that we
must play a full focused week-end or we will be left behind. We have had some great games in our home rink so far this season and I expect that to con-tinue this weekend.”
This weekend the Saints hope to rekindle their offence. Former Trail Smoke Eater Darnell Dyck leads the Saints in points with 13, followed by Trail native and former Smoke Eater captain Logan Proulx, with 5-6-11.
The puck drops this Saturday at 7 p.m. and Sunday at noon.
By Jim BaileyTimes Sports Editor
The Trail Smoke Eaters face two BCHL Interior division rivals this weekend, and it goes without say-ing, the games are crucial if the Smokies want to stay in contention for the playoffs.
The Smoke Eaters play the West Kelowna Warriors at home on Friday before facing off against the Vernon Vipers in Vernon on Saturday. Both the Vipers and Warriors are tied for second place in the division with 31 points, but the Snakes have one game in hand.
The Smokies were unlucky col-lecting just three-of-six points on the weekend, losing 6-5 against Victoria in overtime and dropping a 2-1 game to Nanaimo in the final three seconds of play, but injuries again factored into the losses and Trail was forced to ice four affiliate players over the three game road trip to the Island.
“We don’t have a lot of bodies so it’s a tough thing sometimes when they are coming at you full steam ahead and you’re just trying to survive to some extent,”said Nick Deschenes, Smoke Eater coach and GM.
Trail lost Craig Martin for six-to-eight weeks with a knee injury, while Bryan Basilico and Robbie Johnson are out with an injury, Jeremy Lucchini with illness, and
Viktor Dombrovskiy is on the trade block.
“Right now we’re down six bod-ies, which is a lot when we only roster 22,” said Deschenes.
The Smoke Eaters will once again rely on a couple Affiliate Players to fill out the line up this weekend.
On the upside, Trail goaltender Adam Todd returned to the line up and was stellar in a 3-2 win against Cowichan, as did Dallas Calvin who picked up an assist on the weekend, and Brett Clark starred in his start against Nanaimo. Charlie Zuccarini continues to roll collecting four points on the weekend to put him in 10th overall in the BCHL with 16-14-30.
However, their first meeting with the Warriors this weekend will be a tough test for the Smokes.
West K is led by Liam Blackburn whose 13 goals and 42 points puts him second in league scoring, and the Prince George native is one point away from matching his total from last year.
Brayden Gelsinger, 30 points, Jonathon Desbiens, 29, and Jason Cotton, 28, round out a lethal for-ward attack for the Warriors. If any-thing, the Warriors may be lacking on defence having allowed the most goals in the division, 93, and played the most overtime games, 10, while winning five and losing five.

FROM PAGE 11The Smokies have dropped
two games to Vernon already this year, 4-1 and 3-0, and will need to get some offensive pro-duction on the stingiest defence in the league. The Vipers’ Danny Todosychuk and Jarred Schamerhorn have allowed a combined 59 goals in 24 games with the former posting a 1.92 GAA and .933 save percentage, while Schamerhorn has a 2.65
GAA and a .913 save percentage. The 11-11-0-1 Smokies will
look to make up ground on the Warriors and Vipers with a couple of important wins this weekend.
“As a group we’re right in the mix with games in hand, and obviously every game you play you can climb the ladder pretty quick,” added Deschenes. “I think there is a lot of posi-tives out of that road trip so
we’ll just have a good week of practice and be ready to face West Kelowna for the first time, and then we owe Vernon, we haven’t showed up to play them yet this year.”
The Smokies host the Warriors Friday at the Cominco Arena at 7:30 p.m. Admission for fans 12-and-under is a toon-ie, which goes to the Canadian Cancer Society to raise funds to fight cancer.
Payback time for Smoke Eaters
FROM PAGE 11 The Border Bruins
at 7-15-0-3 hold down last spot in the Neil Murdoch division, but are no push overs. The Bruins dropped a pair of 4-3 OT games to Castlegar and Nelson on the weekend, and have had a combina-tion of tough luck
and bad bounces. The Bruins lost their best player Max Newton to the Trail Smoke Eaters of the BCHL but have found ways to stay competitive.
The Hawks may not be in must-win terri-tory yet, but the win over Nelson should give them a boost,
and a pair of wins this weekend will keep them in contention, while giving B.V. a cushion over Spokane who are idle and cur-rently sit two points back.
“You’re going to have setbacks, you’re going to have plateaus, and falters that’s just
how a season progress-es over 52 games, but as long as our overall trend is moving toward our end goal we’re happy. We’ve come a long way since day 1 so we’re happy with where we’re going.”
Beaver Valley host the Border Bruins Saturday at 7:30 p.m.
Border Bruins no pushovers
It is hockey season, hockey weather, hockey time, and the Smoke Eaters
need to gear up and get points before the holiday break.
As much as it seems Trail has improved over last season, they are still not in a playoff spot. They do have enough games in hand that, if they won them all, it would scratch them into a tie for the last available post-season place. That is, given current trends, a big, “if.”
It isn’t as if the Smokies have not played well a lot of the time. It is that, standings-wise, almost everybody else in the BCHL is playing well, too. In terms of
points, only four teams are below .500, after almost half a season of play.
That magnifies the single point Trail lost three seconds before the end of the middle game of their recent three-game trip and makes regular time wins cru-cial for the team if it hopes to move into con-tention for the playoffs.
There have been 79 three-point games in the league to date - games in which losing teams receive a point, some-thing Trail has acheived just once this year - and those miscellaneous loser points are a big reason the Smoke Eaters are as far out of a post season spot as they are.
Both tonight’s oppon-ents, West Kelowna, and Trail’s fifth-place part-ner, Salmon Arm, have
five such points. There are teams with two and three fewer wins than the Smoke Eaters that are tied with them in overall points. West Kelowna has only two more wins than Trail, but is eight points ahead of the Smokies and tied for second overall in the division.
The reality is that the Smokies must win outright against div-ision foes to even hope to climb the standings against them.
Heading into a December in which a four-game home stand looms early, the Smokies have got to make, and take advantage of, oppor-tunies for clear victories.
Trail, despite a big year-over-year improve-ment in results and an entertaining style that is drawing fans to help with the bottom line, needs a playoff round or two this season.
That means they already need to start making a charge into the second half of the schedule. That already means regulation time wins against division opponents are necessary.
Let’s hope that begins tonight.

Dear Annie: I have had a best friend for nearly 20 years. However, in the past six or seven years, “Gloria” has become very self-absorbed and selfish. She refuses to show any reciprocity for favors or kindness-es. She seems to have time only for doctors, workouts and different physical therapies. She says she wants others to take care of her and threatens to hurt her-self if she doesn’t get enough attention.
Gloria says she val-ues my friendship, but I guess it’s only when I am doing her a favor. I have decided that I’ve had enough and will break off all commu-nication with her. Do I owe her an explana-tion, or should I simply be unavailable when she makes her once-a-month phone call? In the past, I’ve told her how she makes me feel, but she shrugs it off and does nothing. I don’t want to be mean, and I worry that tell-
ing her off would only make me feel better. What is the right thing to do? -- Soured on Her Friendship
Dear Soured: Is Gloria well? If she spends all her time seeing doctors and get-ting physical therapy, it sounds as though she has medical issues. This, of course, does not excuse her from behaving like a caring human being, but it may explain why she is so self-involved. Since you are ready to ter-minate the friendship anyway, it would do no harm to ask Gloria about her health, and also let her know that her attitude has eroded the relationship. We
hope she is willing to work on this.
Dear Annie: I read with interest the let-ter from “J” about a remedy for seasickness. I had a similar experi-ence that may be of interest to your read-ers.
Years ago, I was a young Air Force officer in navigation school. I was on a training flight with instructors, two pilots and 12 students when we encountered severe turbulence. Almost immediately, you could see people turning green and starting to get sick. The pilot apologized for the turbulence, saying it would last a while, and if anyone was not feel-ing well, they should take a piece of news-paper and open their flight suit and stick the newspaper next to their stomach. He said it would “stabilize your body temperature.”
Almost immediate-ly, everyone grabbed a newspaper, opened their flight suits and
pressed the paper next to their stomachs. We endured the turbu-lence for over 30 min-utes, and not one per-son got sick.
Whether it was a psychological ploy by the pilot or a valid solution, it worked. In over 4,000 hours of fly-ing time, I have used this remedy now and then and have never gotten sick. Thought you might want to pass it along. -- Dave S. in Plattsmouth, Neb.
Dear Dave: We’ve never heard of this, but if it works, we’re all for it. And it should keep printed newspapers in business. Win-win.
Dear Annie: The let-ter from “Karyn,” the server who insists on calling her customers “honey” or “sweetie,” absolutely infuriated me. She said they love it and life is too short to worry about such things. Well, respect is eternal.
Such familiarity has bothered me my whole life. I am not
your honey or sweet-ie. It does not con-vey proper respect to someone who is paying good money to eat in your establishment. I also have always dis-liked being referred to as “you guys” when I’m dining with my hus-band, who will prompt-
ly smile at the server and say, “My wife is NOT a guy,” getting his point across without being a jerk about it.
If Karyn has regular customers who don’t object to such names, fine. I have no prob-lem with that. But please reconsider how
you greet people you don’t know. Some of us take deep offense at this. I would never leave a smaller tip, but I would certainly think twice about returning. -- Melody

Speak up about your ideas for improve-ments, cutting costs and doing things better, because someone will listen.

defend your beliefs, and in the end, things will come out OK. LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) You might see better uses for the resources of others. If so, speak up and tell people. If you can see how others can better uti-lize what they own, why not share your ideas?

the better. Remember: Criticism does much, but encouragement does more. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) This is a good day to look around where you live and see better uses for things. It’s also a perfect day to get rid of what you’re not using. Streamline and sim-plify your life! CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) You will be convincing
today, which is why this is a powerful day for those of you who sell, market, teach, act or write. Others will do as you advise. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) You’re in a resourceful frame of mind today, espe-cially when it comes to your earnings and possessions. Don’t hesitate to make sug-gestions at work that are improvements or reforms. There is always a better way
of doing something. PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Take a realistic look in the mirror. What can you do to improve your appearance? Remember: You never get a second chance to make a first impression. YOU BORN TODAY You are energetic, dynamic and influential in your circles. You easily provoke oth-ers because sometimes it entertains you. You like a
busy life of socializing with others. This year your suc-cess lies with others. People will benefit you. Therefore, make friends and join clubs and organizations.

T H E A S S O C I A T E D P R E S SWASHINGTON - We may be the
Internet generation. But we don’t know much about how it works.
A new Pew Research Center sur-vey released Tuesday found most people know that hashtags belong in tweets, but are confused about whether having a privacy policy
means that a company actually keeps consumer information con-fidential.
The results underscore what many techies say is a growing prob-lem: a generation reliant on the convenience that technology brings, but with little understanding of the risks of conducting nearly every
transaction using zeroes and ones.The 17-question quiz is avail-
able online at www.pewinternet.org/quiz/web-iq-quiz/ .
Not surprisingly, people under 30 seemed to do better on some of the questions than older Internet users, such as knowing what a “Wiki” or “captcha” is..
Three-fourths of people surveyed thought the “Internet” was the same thing as the “World Wide Web.” The Internet refers to the infrastructure that uses specific protocols to con-nect various networks; the web is one application that uses that archi-tecture to share information using web pages.

knowledge of the
