Tornado cash questions
Sioux Valley
members
wonder
how $100K
from feds
was spent
BY LINDSEY ENNS
SIOUX VALLEY DAKOTA
NATION — A group of Sioux
Valley Dakota Nation members
still picking up the pieces after
last year’s tornado is wondering
how $100,000 in federal funds
intended for housing repairs
was spent.
The capital funds were
provided through Aboriginal
Affairs
and
Northern
Development Canada to help
fix homes damaged to varying
degrees by a tornado that ripped
through the southwestern
Manitoba community last
summer.
“The $100,000 was for
housing repairs related to
damages sustained from the
tornado,” Ellen Funk, a
spokeswoman for AANDC’s
regional office in Winnipeg,
said in an emailed statement to
the Sun. “The funds were
payable to Sioux Valley Dakota
Nation.”
Funk added AANDC would
have considered providing
additional support, but a request
for further financial assistance
was never made.
In a recent interview with the
Sun, Sioux Valley Chief Vince
Tacan denied receiving any
form of financial assistance
following the storm, despite
having applied for it.
Tacan said he was told the
damage sustained during the
tornado wasn’t “substantial
enough” to receive any disaster

relief assistance for home
repairs.
According to a provincial
spokesperson, the federal
government is responsible for
providing emergency services,
including recovery services, to
First Nations.
“Don’t ask me how
government works, but that’s
what we were told,” Tacan said.
All of the damaged homes
have since been fixed, but are
once again in need of repairs,
he said. “They have been fixed,
but some of the roofs have been
damaged.”
Tacan said insurance money
was used to fix the damaged
homes, but not every home was
covered under insurance.

we need to actually come up with a formal
strategy for cleaning it, or if it’s OK the
way it is, then we’ll be making that
decision,” said Ted Snure, the city’s general
manager of development services.
Snure wouldn’t provide specific details
of the Phase II environmental assessment,
as it has not yet been presented to city
council. He said once Manitoba
Conservation provides a response, the
department will submit a report to council.

Assiniboine flooding finally recedes
Soaked fields and soggy parks may
make this hard to believe, but the
Assiniboine River in Brandon is no longer
at official flood stage.
The river is automatically measured
once an hour at the First Street Bridge,
and finally sank below the official flood
level of 357.23 metres above sea level
sometime late Sunday night.
Water from the river begins to affect
low-lying parklands in Brandon at a level
of about 356.92 metres, and even at that
height, the Assiniboine would be
brimming at the banks. As well, pooled
water in flooded area may linger for quite
some time before it dries.
This year, the river first hit flood stage
on April 22 and it crested at about 358.65
metres in mid-May, fluctuating around
that level for about a week.
According to city data, the Assiniboine
marked its all-time low level just this past
winter, on Dec. 23, 2013, when it dropped
to a reported 353.08 metres — lower than
the previous record low of 354.18 metres
set in 1961.

WHEN IS THE WORD ‘RUSH’ SUPPOSED TO BE USED?
Like a polite middle-aged aunty waiting for an important piece of mail, the City of Brandon twiddles its
collective thumbs as it waits patiently — oh, so ever patiently — for the Eighth Street bridge to be repaired. No
need to make it an emergency after the bridge was damaged in January to cut through red tape, oh no. No need
to light a fire under the butts of the people taking forever to make a piece of steel to fix the broken one. Yup, just
wait all nice and polite. Sorry. So sorry for writing this. I’ll just patiently wait in this never-ending lineup to get
over the Daly Overpass at rush hour.

WHEN IS CRAZINESS GOING TO STOP AT CITY HALL?
First it was the embarrassing mess-up on 10th Street when the city had a busy street closed for months as it
couldn’t figure out how to put up a simple safety fence on its own property to protect some falling materials from
the dilapidated Brown Block. Now I have to waste a lot of time, some days a real lot of time, crossing over the
two busy open bridges when I used to be able to get where I needed to go for business reasons in a few minutes
right over the Eighth Street bridge. What’s wrong with this city? A bridge closed half a year? I’m sure our council
is aware we just have three bridges. Maybe not. Too busy saving some wildflowers on the edge of town.
KUDOS TO THE SUN’S EDITORIAL WRITER
Enjoyed reading the nicely reasoned editorial on the school zone traffic speeds (Friday, Jun. 6). While my wife
and I have long since seen our school-aged children graduate university, speeding in school zones has always
been an issue. But as the writer said, the safety of school children should be the concern of every right-thinking
individual. But do we need to enforce current laws better or create a web of slow streets right through the time
when people are trying to get home from work and the children have pretty much all left the school area? “When
it comes to this kind of issue, it’s next to impossible to detach the discussion from relevant public emotion.
Unfortunately, there can be a danger in making policy decisions based on sentiment, not fact.” Well put. Did
council use it head or its heart on this one?
REGRETS ARE NOT GOING TO CUT IT
Do we need reduced speed zones? Mark Sefton believes we do and I agree. If even “one injury or loss of life”
can be eliminated, that is the biggest plus anyone can hope for. Take the time and slow down. I’m sorry and
regrets are empty words when tragedies take place.

Skeeters worse, but still not enough to fog
Tell us something we didn’t know:
Bug traps throughout Brandon
caught more mosquitoes this week
than last week.
However, the numbers are still not
high enough to trigger fogging with
malathion. And the good news is that
city staff say there are not very many
ready to hatch.
The city says that Sunday trap
counts averaged 246 mosquitoes,
followed by 149 mosquitoes Monday.
That’s up from 210 and 31 a week
prior.
The highest count over the past two
days was in the cemetery, where 482
of the biting bugs were nabbed on
Sunday. The lowest level was 53
mosquitoes caught near the Brandon
University gym.
A “bad catch” prevented tallying
the numbers from the Canada
Crescent trap, but overall the numbers
were higher on Sunday and lower
Monday.
Considering other factors, like
larval life cycles and weather
forecasts, the city calculates an
Adulticiding Factor Analysis level of
12 for this week. That’s up from 10
last week, and nine the week before.
The AFA has to hit at least 15 (out
of 18) for two consecutive counts
before the city will consider sending
out the malathion trucks, although
fogging can also be triggered by
finding an average of more than
1,000 mosquitoes in the traps, or if
any individual trap catches more than
2,000.
The city may also fog if ordered to
by the province, for example to
combat West Nile virus.
With relatively cool weather
expected this week, the city says there
are currently no plans to prepare for
fogging.
But people who want a buffer zone
around their property in the event of
fogging should apply in advance.
With name, address, phone number
and proof of residency, they can
apply for a buffer zone in person or
in writing, and a medical certificate
is not required.
Buffer zone applications are
available online at brandon.ca or
people can call 204-729-2148. Buffer
zones do not apply if health-related
fogging is ordered by the province.
Meanwhile, workers last week
concentrated on larviciding — and it
seems to be paying off. So far, they
say they’ve seen very little larvae
activity at test sites this week. They
will continue to monitor larvae
populations throughout the week,
and will larvicide where necessary.

Pipestone finalizing plans for new rink
BY CHARLES TWEED
Pipestone residents will have to wait one
more winter before kids can lace up their
skates in a new arena.
RM of Pipestone Reeve Ross Tycoles
said council continues to work with an
insurance company to iron out the plans
for the rink.
“We hope to start on the arena this fall,”
he said.
Last summer, a storm ravaged the
village. Golf ball-sized hail smashed
through car windows and caused
substantial damage to crops.
Part of the rink lay in ruins, knocked
down by the powerful winds, while
another section of the building’s tin roof
was torn away.
Insurance will cover the cost of the new
facility, although there may be an
opportunity to upgrade some aspects of
the rink at a cost to the community,
Tycoles said.
The price tag for the new rink is
expected to be approximately $900,000.
The rink will also move closer to the ball
diamonds.
“It’s going to be relocated so we can use
it for multiple functions,” Tycoles said.
The storm ripped through the area July
12, during Pipestone Fun Days, a slo-pitch
tournament that draws hundreds to the
community.
A social that evening had to be cancelled
due to a giant hole in the community hall
roof.
Tycoles said the roof has been fixed and
is set to go ahead of the festival again this
year, which takes place July 11 and 12.
Ball diamonds and backstops were also
damaged, but have been repaired.

Pizza
franchise
delivers
$100K for
softball
complex
Continued from Page A1
BY MEGAN LANE
The local Boston Pizza
franchise is delivering a hefty
slice of dough to the new Ashley
Neufeld Softball Complex.
On Thursday, the franchise
will donate $100,000 to the
project, being built on Parker
Boulevard between Eighth Street
North and 11th Street North.
“Our store has a team in a
Wednesday night recreational
league and has for over 10
years,” franchise owner Dean
Esler said. “We knew when they
approached us that this is the
perfect project to contribute to.”
Plans include four full-sized
diamonds and a learn-to-play
quad with four mini-diamonds,
said construction chair Chris
Johnston.
The grading process for the
diamonds began last month and
is expected to finish next week.
“We have had companies
bringing in fill for the area over
the last three years,” Johnston
said. “But having work started
shows the community that this
project is in progress.”
The completed complex is
estimated to cost $820,000. With
the donation from Esler and
Boston Pizza, the total raised so
far will be $278,000.
“We have had lots of people
interested in donating, but were
skeptical because the work had
not started,” Johnston said.
“The donation from Boston
Pizza will help us to put up the
fencing by the end of July and
hopefully that will encourage
donors.”
The first phase of work will
develop two regular-sized
diamonds along with the
fencing, pump systems and
electrical for the rest of the
complex. This phase is expected
to cost $580,000.
The second phase will finish
the other two diamonds and
learn-to-play quad for $240,000.
The donation being made by
Boston Pizza is the largest to the
complex to date, and the
company will have a diamond
named for it.
“It is nice to have the name
there, but that is not why we are
donating,” Esler said. “Brandon
needs more baseball diamonds
and these are not just for adults,
the small diamonds really make
this for the whole family.”
Boston Pizza owner and
chairman Jim Treliving will be
present for the donation.
“Although the donation is on
behalf of this franchise, we
timed it so that Jim would be
able to attend,” Esler said.
Treliving will be in Brandon
to receive an honorary diploma
from Assiniboine Community
College.
The complex is being built in
memory of Ashley Neufeld of
Brandon, who drowned along
with two Dickinson State
University softball teammates
after their SUV sank into a
farmer’s watering hole while on
a stargazing trip in North
Dakota in 2009.

TWO BIKES, SCOOTER STOLEN FROM UNLOCKED SHED
Senior gets prison time for
molesting granddaughter
WINNIPEG — An 82-yearold man has been sentenced to
five-and-a-half years in prison
for repeatedly sexually abusing
his granddaughter while living
on a Manitoba Hutterite
colony.
Justice officials say the case
is unique because of the
advanced age of the accused
when the crimes occurred. As
a result, he is believed to be one
of the oldest sex offenders ever
caught in the province.
The attacks began in 2009
when the victim was just 10
and the accused was 77. They
ended in 2013 when she
disclosed the abuse to her
mother and they went to
RCMP.
Provincial court Judge Mary
Curtis blasted the elderly man
during a sentencing hearing on
Monday, saying he committed
the ultimate breach of trust.
“His actions were solely for
his own personal sexual
gratification,” she said. “He
stole the remainder of her
childhood.”
Curtis noted how the senior
began targeting the girl shortly
after her father — his son —
died of cancer.
The name of the accused
can’t be published to avoid
identifying the victim, who
told court she still suffers from
nightmares and emotional
trauma.
The man was seeking to be
sentenced to as little as three
years behind bars, citing his
quick guilty plea as a sign of
true remorse. He has no prior
criminal record.
“He will never have to live
with, and deal with, the scars
of his actions as long as his
granddaughter will,” Curtis
said.

“We’ll work with Manitoba
Conservation to ensure that the

Braden Pilling, downtown
development specialist with

hope is that the environmental
issues are minimal.
“But if it’s not, we’ll just have
to work together to find
solutions, because there’s no
way we want this to become a
park,” he said. “Ultimately this
is going to be a redeveloped
project of some sort, that’s what
has to happen on that piece.”
Pilling said the most

timing through a third party.
“I don’t really have any idea
how long that (Manitoba

Completing

“Developers aren’t going

“Seeing as we do not have a
project ready to go, we’re OK
because we’ve still got lots of
work to do to get to that stage,”
he said. “At least we can deal
with this simultaneously as we
get ready to prepare the site to
get a redevelopment project on
there.”
Pilling said working through
this property’s environmental
issues will help Renaissance
Brandon be a leader with
similar projects in the future.
“We’ll demonstrate what
needs to be done to clean up
these sites and take blighted
properties and turn them into
new opportunities downtown,”
he said.
Renaissance Brandon is still
working through the request for
proposals that was issued last
year. A consultant was given a
number of options for the
property,
including
entertainment, recreation, hotel,
residential and commercial.
“We wanted them to look at
all of those … to identify where
the best opportunity for us to
capitalize on lies with this
property,” he said.
“This is one of the most key
properties in the downtown, so
that’s why we’re taking that time
to make sure we’re going to
redevelop what makes the most
sense for downtown but also the
City of Brandon.”

Winnipeg drug firm’s licence yanked
TORONTO — Health Canada has suspended
the licence of pharmaceutical wholesaler
Canadadrugs.com LP over what it calls
“significant concerns” about its manufacturing
practices, following a recent inspection of the
company’s operations.
Suspension of its establishment licence means
the Winnipeg company cannot wholesale drugs
to retail pharmacies, other distributors or
wholesalers until these concerns are fully
addressed, Health Canada said in an advisory
Monday.
Canadadrugs.com also sells prescription
medications to consumers online, a part of the
company’s business that is not affected by having
its federal licence revoked.
Health Canada said companies must comply
with good manufacturing practices, or GMP,
under Food and Drug regulations to ensure
medications sold in Canada are safe, effective
and of high quality.

NEW YORK — The world’s
oldest man, a retired chemist
and parapsychologist, has died
in New York City at the age of
111.
Alexander Imich died
Sunday at his home in
Manhattan, according to his
niece, Karen Bogen of
Providence, Rhode Island. She
said she visited him a day
earlier with her sister and
several of his close friends.
Imich attributed his longevity
to good genetics, proper
nutrition and exercise and the
fact that he and his wife, who
died in 1986, did not have
children, Bogen said.
Michael
Mannion,
a
longtime friend, said Imich’s
“enormous curiosity and ability
to turn even great adversity into
something positive were
important factors in his long
life. These qualities were
evident even in his last weeks
and days of life.”
At the age of 93, Imich
enrolled for three years at the
IM School of Healing Arts, a
school that offers programs in
self-awareness and hands-on
healing, “because he wanted to
learn more about love,”
Mannion said.
Imich detailed the work of a
Polish medium known as
Matylda S. in his book
“Incredible Tales of the
Paranormal,” published in
1995 when he was 92.

RCMP delegation from
Manitoba off to funeral
BY CHARLES TWEED
Seven RCMP officers
currently stationed in Manitoba
will fly to Moncton to attend the
funeral services for their fallen
comrades today.
RCMP spokeswoman Tara
Seel said the “official
delegation” will be led by
Assistant Commissioner Kevin
Brosseau and Staff Sgt. Wayne
Foster.
Of the remaining five, the
closest stationed officer to
Westman is one from Portage
la Prairie.
Seel said the names of the
officers won’t be released, but
“all of them have a connection
to either the members (of the
shooting)
or
to
New
Brunswick.”
The funeral for the three
Mounties shot dead last week
in the line of duty will be held
at the Moncton Coliseum.
An RCMP parade will
precede the service, which will
be televised, for constables
Fabrice Georges Gevaudan,
Douglas James Larche and
Dave Joseph Ross.
Seel said other officers in
Manitoba may also be going,
but aren’t part of the delegation
that is sent through the Slain
Peace Officer Fund.
Prime Minister Stephen
Harper and Gov.-Gen. David
Johnston are also expected to
attend.
Justin Bourque, 24, of
Moncton is facing three charges
of first-degree murder and two

inmates who escaped
MONTREAL — Security
restrictions against three men
who escaped from prison in a
helicopter were eased just a
day before their daring
getaway, Quebec’s deputy
premier said Monday.
Lise Theriault said a judge
granted a request by the trio on
Friday to have more flexible
detention conditions, including
the possibility they no longer
be obliged to wear handcuffs.
Theriault, who is also public
security minister, told a news
conference in Nicolet, Que.,
she doesn’t know why the
judge agreed to the request.
“On Friday, the prisoners
petitioned a judge to have their
measures of confinement
loosened and the judge
agreed,” she said.
Later, she told reporters in
Quebec City the decision was
“questionable” given the
sequence of events that
followed.
The spectacular escape
dominated question period in
the national assembly on
Monday, with Theriault
peppered on the subject for
more than 30 minutes.
She was asked several times
by interim Parti Québécois
leader Stephane Bedard why
the government did not appeal
the judge’s decision.
Theriault’s
repeated
response was that everything
would be made public “at the
opportune moment.”
Yves Denis, Denis Lefebvre
and Serge Pomerleau escaped
from the Orsainville Detention
Centre in suburban Quebec
City on Saturday evening
when a chopper landed in a
courtyard, scooped them up
and quickly took off.
Police say the three men
were originally arrested on
drug-trafficking

MONCTON, N.B. — As Elaine Gray emerged
from the sombre, dimly lit auditorium where three
slain Mounties lay in flag-draped coffins, the
Moncton woman dabbed her reddened eyes with
a tissue and squinted in the blazing sunshine.
Gray was among hundreds of people who
attended a public visitation Monday for
constables Fabrice Georges Gevaudan, Douglas
James Larche and Dave Joseph Ross, who were
all shot dead in the line of duty last week in
Moncton’s north end.
“I just wanted to say thank you again and again
to these people,” Gray said. “(What happened)
was so senseless and such a shame and such a
loss. I didn’t know any of them personally. I know
all of them now.”
About 200 people were lined up as the doors
swung open to the Wesleyan Celebration Centre.
At the front of the auditorium, the coffins were
placed end to end, each one with a Mountie’s
brown Stetson on top.
On a stage behind the coffins were several
wreaths and large bouquets, most of them laden
with red and white blooms. In front of the wreaths
were displays featuring framed photos of each of
the victims and their brown leather boots.
As the crowd filed past, six RCMP officers in
red serge were there to greet them. Amid a
murmur of voices and a few heavy sighs and sobs,
each Mountie took turns shaking hands and
accepting quiet thanks and personal tributes from
the mourners.
Most of the people in the auditorium were
older, but as the line grew longer the range of
ages widened considerably. One woman brought
two small children, a boy and a girl in their
Sunday best. Some people wore formal outfits,
others were in jeans, shorts and sandals as the
temperature outside rose above 25 C.
Aline Chiasson from nearby Dieppe said she
wanted to show her support for the Mounties.
“We came down because we’re really sorry for
those people and their families, having to go
through such terrible stress and sorrow,” she said,
her Acadian accent highlighting the area’s strong
bilingual roots. “It’s too often that we criticize the
RCMP. But what would we do without them?
We need them to protect us.”
The visitation service was held as the city
prepares for an RCMP regimental funeral service
today. Mayor George LeBlanc said he expects
between 5,000 and 7,000 police officers from
across Canada to attend at the Moncton
Coliseum, which will be preceded by an RCMP
parade. The service will be televised.

OPINION • A7
EDITORIAL
Give city’s new
planters a chance
to grow on you
It seems some grouches are not happy unless they are
complaining about something.
Hence the Sound Off in yesterday’s paper kvetching
that the city has bought new planters.
“Why is the city wasting taxpayers’ money on such
unimportant changes?” groused the anonymous
submitter. “The new planters (are) ugly plastic
rectangular objects that look like small coffins!”
We beg to differ — no one could seriously think that a
series of hearses lost their loads along every stretch of
boulevard in the city. And frankly, we would be happy to
be laid to rest with such lovely floral bouquets adorning
our caskets.
But setting aside the design, we don’t think it’s fair to
find such immediate fault with the new planters.
While the old planters were much larger, and made a
more immediate, dramatic impact when they were
placed each spring along the boulevards, there are many,
many more of the new planters. This means they can be
placed in more areas, including at entrances to parks,
than the old ones.
We look forward to seeing the planters fill out at little
bit as the season progresses.
And even slightly smaller sprays of flowers will
eliminate the perennial concern about sightlines. Some
of the very large grassy displays in years past have been
placed uncomfortably close to intersections, causing
issues for left-turning drivers.
We’re also told that the new planters are better at
retaining water, meaning that even though there are
more of them, city workers will have to tend to them
less often. That’s excellent.
Certainly, we admit that they look a little more
temporary than the older style. But summer’s temporary
itself. So consider them to be a bit of a memento mori
— a reminder that even the hottest of July days will
soon be just a memory as we shiver in December’s wind
chill.
Instead of boulevards full of petunias, we’ll be trying
to keep a poinsettia alive as we drive home past
boulevards piled high with snow and ice windrows.
Won’t worrywarts look back on the planters then and
feel a little foolish that they fussed over their size and
shape.
We would hope so.
But we expect there will be more than enough Sound
Offs to choose from, each telling the city precisely how
it has failed to sand the roads properly yet again, and by
the way, about those terrible Christmas lights …
Meanwhile, if we did have to make one suggestion, it’s
that the city buy even more of these new planters. The
smaller size means they are appropriate for many new
areas. They could replace the Jersey barriers on Ninth
Street downtown, for example. Or they could be used as
bollards to keep vehicles off bike and walking paths.
We are perfectly happy that Brandon continues to
place such a priority on decorating our boulevards for
the all-too-short summer season. We’ve been proud, as a
community, to regularly place so highly in the national
Communities in Bloom competitions.
Last year, Brandon was the recipient of an
outstanding achievement award for urban forestry in the
competitions, while in 2012, the city’s efforts received a
five-bloom rating and a special mention for outstanding
private and public gardens.
In 2011, the city garnered special honours for its floral
displays, and this year the judges will be touring the city
on July 19 and 20 — dates that coincide with the annual
heritage building and open garden tours.
This year, as always, we join the city in urging
Brandonites to get out and spruce up their yards and
neighbourhoods. But it’s not only about the judges and
the awards.
We just like living in a nice-looking city.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Don’t muzzle the religiously informed
Recently, several individuals have written
into the Brandon Sun stating that one may
choose to believe whatever one wants to
about God, but it must be kept private and
out of the public square.
“If religion is your fancy, by all means
enjoy it, but it has no place in schools or
anywhere, except your private life; and
don’t lecture others on your beliefs.”
So while the secular citizen lectures
others on his/her beliefs and is given free
access to the public square, the religiously
informed citizen is to have his convictions
muzzled and leashed? How is this fair?
Ravi Zacharias aptly remarks: “In the
name of non-offensiveness, religion is
privatized and relegated to the home, while
in the name of freedom all kinds of
indecencies and abandonments are made
public. How ironic that sexuality and
nudity, which are meant to be private, are
now fare for public consumption while
spiritual convictions, which are meant to
strengthen public polity, are now for private
expression only.”
It is often argued that religious ideas
should not be allowed to inform public
policy because of the violence engendered
by religion.
But let’s remember, the secularist is not
immune to the question of violence. On
the contrary, for the secularist there is this
awkward fact: “The 20th century was not
an age of faith, and it was awful. Lenin,
Stalin, Hitler, Mao and Pol Pot will never
be counted among the religious leaders of
mankind.”
David Berlinski puts it succinctly. After
citing Nobel Prize winner Steven
Weinberg’s public statement “for good
people to do evil things, that takes religion,”
he points out that not one member of
Weinberg’s audience asked the question
one might have thought pertinent:
“Just who has imposed on the suffering
human race poison gas, barbed wire, high
explosives, experiments in eugenics, the
formula for Zyklon B, heavy artillery,
pseudo-scientific justifications for mass
murder, cluster bombs, attack submarines,
napalm, intercontinental ballistic missiles,
military space platforms and nuclear
weapons? If memory serves, it was not the
Vatican.”

What caused gov’t panic on education?
In your May 31 editorial, “Power Grab
On Higher Education,” you conclude the
opinion with “this creates a situation ripe
for abuse — but to what end, unfortunately
we just don’t know.”
This latter issue has been raised in
academic circles in the province in terms
of what was the panic and why hide it in
the provincial budget documentation and
hurriedly advise the university and college
administrations very quickly after the
budget release.
It becomes even more intriguing when
we review quotes from Education Minister
James Allum in a story written by Nick
Martin in the Winnipeg Free Press on Feb.
22 (“College Fails To Make The Grade —
Optimism For Northern University
Despite Damning Report”)
On being interviewed by Martin on this
report, Allum said: “Our goal is to try to
strengthen UCN, and yet UCN is also an
autonomous institution. I really want to
respect they’re an autonomous institution.”
I presume that the provincial budget
documentation was well on the way to
completion in late February. Was

Gift ideas for Dad? Sock it to me!
“My father gave me the
greatest gift anyone could
give another person — he
believed in me.”
— Jim Valvano, basketball
coach and broadcaster
BY WANDA KURCHABA
This Sunday, we’ll be
celebrating Father’s Day —
a day when dads
everywhere will be hugged
and loved just a little bit
more than usual.
For the last week or so,
teachers have browsing the
Internet and Pinterest
looking for unique cards
and gifts that can be made
in the classroom.
At the same time, moms
and kids have been
wandering around the
shops looking for just the
right gift for dad.
Tools, fishing supplies,
golf accessories, clothes —
what is it that dad’s heart
desires?
I wondered the same and
asked a few folks around
town what they thought.
Socks, says Brian
Bromley, owner of
Bromley’s Menswear. Yes,
you read that correctly —
socks. However, Brian’s not
talking about your average,
everyday socks.
“For the younger dads,
we have these very bright,
very colourful socks that are
really, really popular,” he
said. “I agonized over
bringing them in, but I
shouldn’t have. I have never
had anything that has sold
like these have.”
The Cole + Parker socks
can be worn either with
dress or golf pants. While
they do make a fashion
statement, they are also

And while ties used to be
a big seller for Father’s Day,
that just isn’t the case now.
“With companies moving
towards a more casual attire
for the summer, we find
that ties are not a very
popular gift item anymore
for Father’s Day,” Bromley
said. “They are definitely
more of a Christmas gift
idea.”
So, I’d say get dad to put
his new socks on and spend
the rest of the day on the
links.

has a fantastic deal for the

“Since Father’s Day is on
June 15, we’re going to do
$15 green fees for
everybody all day long,”
Ramsey said.
“We will typically get kids
coming out with their
fathers, so that’s a great deal
for everyone.”
Ramsey recommends
booking a tee time and says
the course is in great shape.
As a dad himself, he will
be working that day, but he
hopes he’ll be able to get a
little bit of time with his
wife and children.
“This sounds cheesy, and
my wife will probably laugh
at me when she reads this,
but all I ever want is to be
able to spend quality time
with my family,” he said.
The long-range forecast
for Sunday is sunny, with a
high of 21 C.
That seems like the
perfect day for a round of
golf and to wrap things up
with a trip to one of the
local ice cream shops with
dad to indulge in a
delicious, little treat.
“It’s hard to say, but it
seems that the average,
typical dad will order a
Blizzard or a Peanut Buster
Parfait,” said Laird Lidster,
owner of Dairy Queen.
“We’ve got lots to choose
from though, so dad won’t
go away disappointed.”

Bobcats bidding
for CIS nationals
university that has never hosted a national
championship before its first-ever event.
BU also has the state-of-the-art Healthy Living
Centre completed now, which it didn’t when it
bid last time, and it is suitable to host a national
championship. WestJet flying into Brandon may
also help ease the transportation burden that
could have negatively impacted travel
accessibility in the previous bid as well.
Paddock and his bid committee will explain
all of that in their bid package, which also covers
medical services, facility and transportation, the
budget and other details, like how hosting the
event will benefit the city and how the
community responds to the school’s teams.
He believes the experience of going through
the bid process will also be a great benefit.
“I think certainly the process of applying last
time helped and certainly we have more
experience from attending the championship
and just from our own bid and seeing what other
schools that got the bid for this year were able
to offer in their bid is all preparation for us to
put forward a very competitive proposal,” he
said.
BU women’s volleyball head coach Lee
Carter, who’s currently in Mexico with the
national women’s volleyball team as it prepares
to start the Pan Am Cup tournament on
Wednesday, would love to bring the event to
Brandon.
Not only does he think it would be a great
tribute to all the people who have made the
Bobcats successful, but also those who have
made girls’ volleyball so strong in the Westman
region. He also believes his team will be a
serious contender for the national title in 2016.
BY CHRIS JASTER
As soon as Brandon University athletic
director Russ Paddock gets back from the
Canadian Interuniversity Sport annual general
meeting in Vancouver, he will be working hard
to bring the 2016 national university women’s
volleyball championship tournament to the
Wheat City.
The CIS has put out a call for bids for the
2016 and 2017 men’s and women’s volleyball
championships, and the Bobcats will be working
extremely hard to make an attractive bid for the
2016 women’s event, which would be held in
March that year. Brandon has never hosted a
CIS event before, although it did bid for the 2014
and 2015 men’s and women’s volleyball
championships, and Paddock would love to
bring one here.
“It would be really big for our volleyball
teams, athletic program and university as a
whole,” he said.
“To have the national spotlight on that
particular weekend would do a lot for our
program and the whole city and region.”
BU opted to bid for the women’s event and
not the men’s championship, since the men’s
tournament will already be hosted by Canada
West schools in 2014 and 2015, while the
women’s will be in Toronto next season.
Paddock believed it would be tough for the
men’s championship to stay in the west for three
straight years and he also thinks the women’s
team will be extremely competitive that season.
In addition to that, Paddock believes there
will be a few things that may work in Brandon’s
favour. The CIS views each member as equal
regardless of school size and he hopes the
organization will be interested in giving a » See ‘Carter’ — Page B3

Peyachew on track to join Cougars
BY CHRIS JASTER
Riley Peyachew was disappointed with
his personal results at the provincial high
school track and field championships on the
weekend, but he has found a silver lining.
The 17-year-old Neelin Spartan went into
provincials determined to win a medal, but
came up just two-hundredths of a second
shy of bronze in the varsity boys’ 400-metre
race before coming up lame in the 200m
final with a pulled hamstring. However, he
returned home to Brandon and made sure
track will be a major part of his future by
announcing he has verbally committed to
join the defending Canada West conference
champion University of Regina Cougars
track and field team in the fall and will sign
his letter of intent this week.
“I felt really strong and confident and was
really gunning for that podium finish and
end my high school career on a high note,
but unfortunately I wasn’t able to deliver
the medal finish I had hoped for,” he said.
“It stings, but fortunately for me it’s
nowhere near the end.”
Joining the Cougars makes one of
Peyachew’s lifelong dreams a reality. The
Neelin’s Riley Peyachew (front) will run for the U of R Cougars. (File) 5-foot-10, 160-pound Brandonite was raised
in a family of runners. His mom, Deanna,
introduced him to track at an early age and
the entire family was in Boston this spring
when Deanna ran the full marathon while
Riley, his brother and father took part in
the five-kilometre race.
Although Peyachew also played football
with the Spartans, his real passion was in
track and field, and he was determined to
compete at the CIS level.
However, he received a serious scare a
year and a half ago. During a speed skating
event in Calgary, Peyachew fell and crashed
into the boards, breaking his ankle in the
process. It took four months to heal and he
spent another two rehabilitating it.
Peyachew got healthy enough to compete
in track in the spring, but admitted it was
an off-year, which is why he was so focused
on reaching the podium at high school
provincials this season.
Peyachew felt he was talented enough to
make a Canada West team and was
debating between going to Regina or the
University of Manitoba. What put the
Cougars over the top was getting accepted
into the U of R’s geography department.
“I’ve always been excited about
geography and in the future I hope to
specialize in the GIS (Geographic
Information Systems) stream, which is a
big reason why I chose Neelin high school
as well, because they introduced GIS in my
Grade 9 year,” he said. “I started looking
further out west originally for geography,
but since Manitoba and Saskatchewan are
so rich and diverse and whatnot, and it’s
also close to home, it just seemed like the
program to enrol in.”
Peyachew feels confident joining the
Cougars. He plans to compete in the 200m
and 400m events and may consider long
jump as a secondary event. He has been
told by Cougars track and field coach Bruce
McCannel that his times in the 200m (22.50
seconds in the provincial semifinals) and
400m (51.80 seconds in the provincial final)
are midway between the Cougars’ training
and competing times.
Peyachew believes he’ll just get better
during this year. He will take some time off
to let his hamstring heal before rejoining
Winnipeg’s Optimist Athletics track and
field club for the summer and eventually
the Cougars in the fall.
“I’m really excited. I want school to be
done so soon so I can go,” he said.

Kings rule Rangers again
NEW YORK — This Stanley Cup final is
beginning to look like a Quick series.
Thanks to 32 saves from goaltender Jonathan
Quick, the Los Angeles Kings beat the New York
Rangers 3-0 in Game 3 on Monday night to take
a commanding three games to none lead and
move within one victory of hoisting the Cup.
“He was our cornerstone,” Kings winger
Marian Gaborik said of Quick. “Our penalty
kill was great and he was our best penalty-killer.”
Quick was masterful in his poise and in his
reflexes to record his second shutout of these
playoffs and the ninth of his NHL career in the
post-season. The native of nearby Milford,
Conn., who grew up a Rangers fan, managed
to do it in his first game at Madison Square
Garden, which made it even more memorable.
“He’s always our backbone,” Kings
defenceman Drew Doughty said.
To supplement Quick, the Kings got goals from
Jeff Carter, Jake Muzzin and Mike Richards and
were in control all night despite being out-shot
32-15. New York goaltender Henrik Lundqvist
stopped 12 shots, but he couldn’t do anything
about his counterpart following the lead of his

childhood idol, Mike Richter, who helped the
Rangers win the Cup 20 years ago.
New York’s Mat Zuccarello had a glorious
chance to take the lead in the first period with
an open net, but Quick dove back to get his stick
on the puck, setting the tone for the night.
Complete with the memory of Game 1 and
Game 2 — both overtime losses — the Rangers
reflected confidence despite their series deficit.
Pre-game festivities leading to the start included
a motivational montage featuring Liam Neeson,
and the home team took to the ice at the Garden
to the strains of The Who’s “Baba O’Riley.”
John Amirante’s rendition of the “StarSpangled Banner,” accompanied by frenzied
towel waving from the sellout crowd, served up
the first Cup final game in this building since
the Rangers won it all on June 14, 1994 by
beating the Vancouver Canucks. That ended the
franchise’s 54-year championship drought.
After the Rangers’ Game 3 loss, they got one
step closer to extending their current drought
beyond 20 years, while the Kings can win their
second title in three seasons on Wednesday night. Los Angeles Kings (from left) Alec Martinez, Dwight King, Jeff Carter, and Justin Williams (14) celebrate
a late first-period goal by Carter against the New York Rangers on Monday night. (The Associated Press)

of NBA playoffs

Bombers drop pre-season debut
WINNIPEG — Drew Willy
debuted as the starting
quarterback for the Winnipeg
Blue Bombers on Monday
night as they fell 24-22 to the
Toronto Argonauts to open the
CFL pre-season.
The
CFL
Players
Association is expected to vote
this week on a tentative
contract with the league that
may determine whether the
pre-season, or regular season,
continues beyond Monday.
Toronto made the first
successful challenge of a failure
to call pass interference under
new rules brought in this
season that made it subject to
video review. It helped set up
Steve
Slaton’s
second
touchdown of the game to put
Toronto ahead 24-16.
The Bombers watched CFL
rookie running backs Paris
Cotton and Nic Grigsby deliver
some of the same stuff they’ve
flashed in practice and
Canadian receiver Julian FeoliGudino scored his first TD.
Toronto got a few good
carries from running back
Jeremiah Johnson, those two
touchdowns from Slaton and a
solid first quarter out of
quarterback Trevor Harris, a
candidate to move up to Ricky
Ray’s No. 1 backup this season.
The Argos chose not to dress
Ray last night.
The Bombers scored first on
a 43-yard field goal from Lirim
Hajrullahu, a rookie Canadian
out of Western, set up by a 47yard pass from Willy to veteran
Dwyane Wade
the corner of my eye to try to
steal it so my only thing was to
make sure that he didn’t steal
it,” Wade said. “He swiped and
he wound up hitting me and the
ref called a foul. We move on.”
Some of the flops in the
playoffs have been almost
circuslike acting jobs, including
a pair by Indiana guard Lance
Stephenson — the official
league-wide leader in flopping
this season with two violations
in the regular season and two
more in the post-season. He’s
had to pay $20,000 for those
flops, or basically about 2 per
cent of his season’s salary.
For Wade, who’s made
nearly $19 million in salary this
season, the $5,000 was mere
pocket change. And situations
like that were pointed out last
year by now-retired NBA
Commissioner David Stern,
who said the small fine “isn’t
enough. You’re not going to
cause somebody to stop it for
$5,000 when the average
player’s salary is $5.5 million.”
Stern added then that anyone
who thought the fine would
stop the flop is allowing “hope
to prevail over reason.” So it
would be no surprise if tougher
flopping penalties are discussed
when the NBA’s competition
committee meets this summer.

they were planning a “major

Toronto made it 7-3 with a
little more that three minutes to
go in the first after a one-yard
run by sophomore running back
Curtis Steele. Slaton then ran 13
yards for Toronto’s second
touchdown about three minutes
into the second quarter as the
Argos moved ahead 14-3.
The Bombers came back
with a solid 76-yard drive
capped by a short touchdown
pass to an unguarded FeoliGudino and closed the gap to
four points.
Brett Maher closed it to one
with a 47-yard field goal before
the first half ended. Maher is
the import also vying for the
kicker’s job and he had a
35-yard field goal in the fourth.
Toronto’s Josh Jasper missed
a 41-yard field-goal attempt in
the third but connected with a
14-yard kick later in the quarter.

MIAMI — The flop is
having an impact on the NBA
playoffs, and it’s being caught
much more than it was in the
regular season.
Miami Heat guard Dwyane
Wade became the latest
recipient of a post-season
flopping fine Monday when the
NBA ordered him to give up
$5,000 after a review showed
he over-exaggerated a foul
during Game 2 of the finals
that was charged to San
Antonio Spurs’ Manu Ginobili.
And there’s an ironic twist —
Ginobili is often considered a
master flopper, but he wasn’t
even warned once about it this
season.
“He took a swipe and he hit
me,” Wade said Monday,
before the fine was announced.
“It was a late call by the ref, but
he called it.”
The league saw it differently.
It was the fifth flopping
violation of the playoffs, which
works out to one in every 17.2
games. The Heat-Spurs
matchup is tied 1-1, with Game
3 in Miami tonight.
The NBA said 35 flops were
caught in the regular season, or
one in every 35.1 games.
Players are not fined in the
regular season until their
second flop of the year; in the
playoffs, every flop is a fine.
“Flopping,” Miami guard
Shane Battier once said, “is a
silent killer.”
Well, unless it works.
Wade drew the foul against
Ginobili with 4:09 left in the
second quarter on Sunday
night. Ginobili, who took a big
swipe at the ball about 35 feet
from the basket, wound up
going to the bench with his
third foul of the half. Wade
went to the line and made the
two resulting free throws, since
Miami was already in the
bonus. The Heat wound up
winning by two points.

Willy completed six of his 12
passing attempts for 108 yards
and one touchdown before he

the third and Robert Marve late
in the fourth. It was Marve who
brought the Bombers within
two late in the game, but they
failed on the two-point convert
attempt to leave it at 24-22.

Ferland trial begins
CALGARY — Testimony is underway at the
assault trial of Calgary Flames prospect Michael
Ferland of Brandon.
The 22-year-old former Brandon Wheat
Kings left-winger, who played in the AHL this
season, faces one charge of assault and one
charge of aggravated assault. The charges stem
from an alleged bar fight in Cochrane, Alta.,
nearly two years ago.
Proceedings began Monday morning with the
swearing in of the jury. Prosecutor Ron Simenik
then called his first of 10 witnesses.
Cochrane-area resident Wesley Bunn told the
court he and a friend confronted Ferland after
allegedly seeing him push a girl just outside what
was then known as the Stageline Saloon. Under
cross-examination, Bunn admitted he had a fair
amount to drink that night and was unclear on
the finer details of the incident.
The trial is expected to last 10 days.

Magic take tournament title
The Westman Magic returned from the
Regina Queen City Classic Softball Tournament
with gold medals.
The Magic under-14 girls squad defeated the
Lumsden (Sask.) Cubs 11-7 in Sunday’s goldmedal game to cap off the three-day
tournament. Brooklyn Roach struck out seven
batters over four innings to earn the victory on
the mound for Westman, while Brooke Roeges
and Brooke Schoonbaert both drove in two runs
with three hits apiece.
Westman advanced to the final by beating
Central Energy 4-1 behind Jenna Marshall’s
3-for-4 day at the plate, with Roach striking out
three over four innings while giving up just one
hit. The Magic’s road to the final also included
a 7-0 shutout of the Saskatoon Lasers and a
12-5 victory over the Regina Royals.

WIELENGA LEAVING BOBCATS
After four seasons serving as an assistant
coach to Gil Cheung with BU’s men’s basketball
program, Jeremy Wielenga is moving on.
Wielenga is heading east to Thunder Bay,
Ont., to join the CIS’s Lakehead Thunderwolves
as an assistant coach with their men’s basketball
program. Wielenga, a Neelin high school
graduate, will take a one-year bachelor of
education program at Lakehead while joining
Scott Morrison’s coaching staff, after earning a
physical education degree at BU.
“It’s definitely sad to leave BU after being here
for four years and building relationships with
Gil and the players, but at the same time I get
to continue my education and my coaching
career at Lakehead,” Wielenga said last night.

Judge wants Kasem’s
health evaluated
BU music professor
releases debut CD
An internationally acclaimed
musician and teacher at Brandon
University has released her debut
CD, exploring themes of European
folk tunes and Romanticism.
Violinist Kerry DuWors, assistant
professor in BU’s School of Music,
joins forces with pianist Futaba
Niekawa in the group duo526 to
present “ballade.”
Released
through
Navona
Records, “ballade” features violin
sonatas by composers Leoš Janácek,
George Enescu and Edvard Grieg.
“These pieces are rarely performed
together,” DuWors said in a press
release. “The selections are
extremely musical, highlighting
sustained
vibrato,
harmonic
sensitivity, rhythmic spontaneity, as
well as precision. I think listeners will
find the album is very powerful.”

LOS ANGELES — A judge
ruled Monday that Casey
Kasem should be fed, hydrated
and medicated while a courtappointed attorney evaluates the
health of the ailing radio
personality after his daughter
moved to implement end-of-life
measures.
Kasem, who has dementia,
was in critical condition in a
Washington state hospital. His
daughter Kerri Kasem, who has
been placed in temporary
control of his treatment,
consulted with doctors and
decided recently to stop giving
her father food, water and
medications, attorneys said in
court.
Los Angeles Superior Court
Judge Daniel S. Murphy ruled
Casey Kasem should receive the
treatments while an attorney
appointed by the judge meets
with Kasem and his doctors.

CD release,” music dean Michael
Kim said.
“Professor DuWors’ continuing
dedication to her craft and the
students at BU are exemplary, and
we look forward to many more
accomplishments.”

Prosecutor says trucker in Morgan
crash awake more than 24 hours
NEW BRUNSWICK, N.J.
— A truck driver accused of
triggering a highway crash that
injured Tracy Morgan and
killed another comedian hadn’t
slept for more than 24 hours
before the accident, authorities
said Monday as Morgan
recovered in a hospital.
Wal-Mart truck driver Kevin
Roper was originally expected
to make an initial appearance
in state court Monday, but a
court official said the
Jonesboro, Ga., resident is
scheduled in court on
Wednesday. It wasn’t clear
Monday if Roper had retained
an attorney. He remained free
after posting $50,000 bond.
Authorities said the 35-yearold Roper apparently failed to
slow for traffic ahead early
Saturday
in
Cranbury
Township and swerved at the
last minute to avoid a crash.
Instead, his big rig smashed
into the back of Morgan’s
chauffeured Mercedes limo
bus, killing comedian James
“Jimmy Mack” McNair,
authorities said.
The 45-year-old Morgan, a
former “Saturday Night Live”
and “30 Rock” cast member,
remained in critical but stable
condition Monday. Morgan’s
spokesman, Lewis Kay, said he
was “more responsive” after
having surgery for a broken leg
Tracy Morgan
but faces an “arduous”
recovery.
Kay said Morgan suffered a
broken femur, a broken nose
and several broken ribs and is
expected
to
remain
hospitalized for several weeks.
He said Morgan’s family is
“tremendously overwhelmed
and appreciative of the
outpouring of love and support
from his fans.”
Roper has been charged with
death by auto and four counts
of assault by auto. Under New
Jersey law, to prove both crimes
the state has to demonstrate the
defendant operated the vehicle
recklessly when the injuries or
death were caused.
According to the criminal
complaint,
Roper
was
operating the truck “without
having slept for a period in
excess of 24 hours resulting in
a motor vehicle accident.” It
doesn’t specify the basis for that
assertion.
Tyrone Gale, who was
driving the limo bus, told ABC
News that he was disoriented
after the vehicle flipped over
and could hear Morgan yelling
for help.
“I climbed around and heard
Tracy screaming for help,”
Gale said. “I climbed up on the
body of the limo bus ... but I
couldn’t reach them.”
Wal-Mart president Bill
Simon said in a statement the
company “will take full
responsibility” if authorities
determine its truck caused the
crash.
The
National
Transportation Safety Board is
working with state police to
look at any issues in the crash
related to commercial trucking
and limousine safety.
Federal regulations permit
truck drivers to work up to 14
hours a day, with a maximum
of 11 hours behind the wheel.
The other time is usually
devoted to loading and
unloading and paperwork.
They must have a minimum of
10 hours off between work
shifts to sleep. Drivers can
work a maximum of 60 or 70
hours per week, depending
‘YOUNG ONES’ STAR
RIK MAYALL DEAD AT 56
LONDON — Rik Mayall,
one of a generation of
performers that injected postpunk energy into British
comedy, has died. He was 56.
Mayall’s management firm
said Mayall died at his London
home on Monday.
In the 1980s, Mayall was part
of the Comic Strip, an group of
young comics that also included
Dawn French and Jennifer
Saunders. He was best known
for co-writing and performing
in “The Young Ones,” a sitcom
about slovenly students that was
much loved by those it satirized.

Safety advocates said they
hope the accident in New
Jersey will help their case.
“This isn’t an aberrant or
unusual thing that just sort of
happened for no reason,” said
Henry Jasny, vice-president of
Advocates for Highway and
Auto Safety. “This is part of a
systemic problem of having
tired people driving at night
and driving large trucks.”
But Dave Osiecki, vicepresident of the American
Trucking Association, said no
regulations can prevent a driver
from making “bad choices.”
Morgan, a New York City
native, was returning from a
standup performance at Dover
Downs Hotel & Casino in
Delaware. Six vehicles were
involved in the pileup, but no
one from the other cars was
injured.
McNair, 62, of Peekskill,
N.Y., was a close friend and
mentor to Morgan, Morgan’s
ex-wife, Sabina Morgan, told
the New York Daily News.

Kasem was admitted to the
hospital with an infected
bedsore last week. Kerri Kasem
decided to begin end-of-life
measures
after
doctors
determined that feeding and
hydrating the celebrity had
become increasingly painful,
attorney Troy Martin said in
court. The judge’s ruling is likely
to cause the radio icon more
pain, he said.
Casey Kasem’s wife of 34
years, Jean Kasem, appeared in
court and said she supported
Murphy’s ruling and will ask to
be restored as her husband’s
caretaker. Outside court, she
lashed out at Kerri Kasem and
judges who have criticized her
for refusing to co-operate with
her stepdaughter, who was
named temporary conservator
last month after Casey Kasem
was moved to Washington state.

THE BRANDON SUN • TUESDAY, JUNE 10, 2014
BLONDIE
HOROSCOPES
WRITTEN BY
HOLIDAY MATHIS
FOR TUESDAY, JUNE 10
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Families change with the times.
You’ll see evidence of this today and hopefully interpret the events
as positive movement because that is truly what they are.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). There’s no shame in not getting
the object of your desire. It simply means you didn’t desire it enough
or you haven’t yet put in the work. If you want it enough, and you
keep working on it, eventually you will have it.
DILBERT
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). People confuse terms, but you will
set them straight. For instance, being responsible means you are
accountable, not that you are doing it all by yourself. Get all the
help you need!
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You feel a brotherhood or
sisterhood with people you are not related to, and that is a good
sign for the planet. Human compassion is one of the most precious
commodities on this big blue marble.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Some say success comes from rising
early; others insist it happens from staying up past midnight. You
have your own thoughts about scheduling, and as long as you abide
by your own beliefs, you’ll succeed.
GARFIELD
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Don’t forget about the element of
madness that should be factored into every human equation. When
you mix in the madness, whatever didn’t make sense suddenly
starts to.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Be easy to talk to. Be careful about
the small gestures that happen when you’re very busy or
preoccupied and that might make someone afraid to be honest
with you in the future.
POOCH CAFE
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Should you be more remote?
Should you be more familiar? The answer is: both. A relationship
develops in interesting ways when you spend a good deal of time
apart ... and then together ... and then apart.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You may decide what is
important or unimportant to you, but it is not possible to dictate
this to another person. As you try to honour what others think is
important, you will build bonds.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). It’s fine to let down your guard.
There’s no benefit to being overly serious. Also, it’s fine to talk
about the trivialities of life. Just try not to state them repeatedly to
the same person.
SHERMAN’S LAGOON
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). What at first seemed impossible
now seems inevitable. That speaks to your personal will. Apply
your focus and energy over time, and it’s all doable.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll play the politics of today’s
situation well. As the Jewish proverb goes, “Make sure to be in
with your equals if you’re going to fall out with your superiors.”
CROSSWORD
EDITED BY
WAYNE ROBERT WILLIAMS
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 10). Your solar year begins with
a rite of passage. In July, you’ll be honoured for what you
contribute to your household and community. August brings
stellar juju for your personal life. It starts with a change you
want to make and ends with a new circle of supporters. A project
will be completed in November. Cancer and Sagittarius people
adore you. Your lucky numbers are 4, 22, 35, 49 and 18.

Disputes
making
mom feel
like failure
Dear Annie: I have two adult
daughters, both married now. “Beth”
lives nearby, but “Gina” moved across
the country.
Beth was diagnosed with ADHD and
bipolar disorder when she was in her
early 20s. I think she suffered from it
during childhood, but was undiagnosed.
When they were children, I spent a
great deal of time trying to calm Beth
down and was aware that Gina did not
get the same degree of attention. I tried
to make up for it by doing things with
Gina outside of the house. I became her
Brownie troop leader and went on her
class field trips. I made it my business
to see that we had calm times together.
Now that Beth is on medication, she
is a different person. But it may be too
late. Gina doesn’t want to come home
anymore because she says she doesn’t
feel safe here. Gina tells me that she is
being treated for PTSD due to verbal
abuse and neglect she suffered as a
child. She says I should have done a
better job of protecting her. She hasn’t
spoken to Beth in two years. I respect
her feelings, but I don’t understand why
she cannot forgive Beth knowing how
ill she was.
Beth is expecting her second child,
but I didn’t tell Gina, because I thought
she wouldn’t care. Her grandmother
spilled the beans, and now Gina thinks
Beth was deliberately “getting even”
because Gina didn’t invite Beth to her
wedding.
I feel like such a failure. I am not
getting any younger and worry that the
two of them will air their dirty laundry
at my funeral. I love both of my girls,
but I don’t know how to resolve this. —
Brokenhearted Mother
Dear Mother: Please stop beating
yourself up. A child with behavioural
issues is a tremendous challenge to
parents and siblings alike. Even though
Beth’s behaviour was not your fault,
Gina needs you to apologize for not
giving her the childhood she thinks she
deserved, and more importantly, Beth
needs to reach out to her sister and ask
for forgiveness. These small things can
go a long way toward healing. Also ask
whether Gina would seek counselling
with you. Be patient, but don’t give up.
Dear Annie: Last Memorial Day, I
visited the grave of a relative to pay my
respects. I looked up and saw a group
of people walking by with their dogs —
right over the graves. The cemetery has
a sign saying no dogs are allowed. On
a holiday like Memorial Day, the
groundskeepers aren’t there to say
anything. I gave them a stern look, as I
certainly didn’t want their dogs to relieve
themselves on my relative’s grave. They
just looked at me and laughed.
This undoubtedly will happen again.
How can I deal with it without losing
my cool? I find this disrespectful and
disgusting. — Anywhere USA
Dear USA: Those cemeteries that do
not permit dogs will post a sign, as
yours did. Those who bring their dogs
in spite of these signs are trespassing
and should be reported to the cemetery
owners, as well as the police. In
cemeteries where dogs are allowed,
considerate owners will not permit their
animals to relieve themselves on a grave,
but will direct them to other areas
within the cemetery and will clean up
after them.
Dear Annie: I would like to respond
to “Different Gods,” the Pagan who
doesn’t want to attend church with her
boyfriend’s family at Christmas.
I have been a practicing pagan for 30
years. Though I am devoted to my
religion, I am still able to celebrate with
family and friends. Holidays are about
the season, the sharing and the joy in
being alive. "Different Gods" should
embrace the holidays as a way to show
her love for her boyfriend and his family.
Maybe then he might be more
interested in attending some pagan
festivals. — L.
