Cranbrook RCMP and Police Dog Services and a Cranbrook resident were the recipients of two awards presented by Jewelers Vigilance Canada, a group representing the jewelers industry at Monday night’s City Council meeeting. Kayleene Woodward was recognized for her assistance in helping police arrest a number of individuals involved in a local pawn shop burglary, and the RCMP were recognized for their efforts in the same incident. The award is relatively new — this was only the second such presentation in Western Canada. Pictured are: Kayleene Woodward - Civilian Recipient, Staff Sgt. Dave Dubnyk, Cpl.

fire suppression crashed while fighting a wildfire near Cold Lake, Alberta, on Fri-day, killing a civilian pilot. Throughout the weekend, weather hampered efforts to get to the site, but the body of 38-year-old William Alexan-der Garvie Hilts of Cran-brook, B.C. was recovered Monday.

Earlier, Jeff Barry of Conair Aerial Firefighting said Hilts was in his fourth firefighting season with the company.

The blaze near Cold Lake caused Cenovus Energy and Canadian Natural Resources Ltd. to pull about 2,000 work-ers and shut down their oil-sands operations Saturday. The closures have resulted in lost production of about 233,000 barrels of oil a day - roughly a 10 per cent loss of the province’s daily produc-tion of oilsands crude.

T R E V O R C R AW L E YSubstance abuse in youth

around the East Kootenay region is in a downward trend, according to a new survey from the East Koote-nay Addictions Services Society.

“Overall, the survey was a suc-cess, we had a good participation rate, glad to see that substance use generally is on a downward curve or plateaued,” said Dean Nichol-son, the executive director of the EKASS.

While substance abuse numbers are generally trending downward, there are some other interesting conclusions that can be drawn when the data is broken down.

Binge-drinking continues to be a concern, but alcohol-impaired driving has decreased.

The survey also noted that ac-quisition of prescription drugs comes mainly from home prescrip-tions and not from street dealers and that e-cigarettes are becoming more popular than traditional to-

bacco for young users. Addressing screen technologies,

such as social media and vid-eo-gaming was a new component of the survey this time around, which concluded that roughly half of the respondents noted that ex-cessive screen time was having a negative impact on their daily life.

Nicholson has been doing the surveys for the last 10 years, which are distributed to schools in School District 5, School District 6 and a few independent schools in Cran-brook, Creston, Kimberley and Fernie. Overall, there were 3,358 survey responses from students in Grades 7-12, representing 71 per cent of student population in the East Kootenay.

“With the major drugs that kids are using, which would be alcohol, marijuana, tobacco, there’s a pretty steady decline in use in the past 10 years,” said Nicholson.

For The TownSmanCRANBROOK – The

Rotary Club of Cran-brook recently received $25,000 in funding as part of the province’s Community Gaming Grants program.

“Rotary’s motto is ‘service above self’ and that principle is certain-ly embodied by the Cranbrook chapter,” Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett said. “They’re a hands-on organization and they’ve been an outstanding contributor in our community for many years.”

Rotary is a global network of volunteer leaders who dedicate their time and talent to tackling humanitarian challenges in their own community and inter-nationally.

In addition to donat-ing to a number of local organizations, the Rota-ry Club of Cranbrook hosts a Seniors Christ-mas Dinner that feeds 500 seniors every year. They also own Rotary Scott Villa, an afford-able-housing complex with 12 units that is rented to low-income seniors.

“We are very proud of the work that we do within our community,”

Submitted

Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett is joined by Cranbrook Rotary Club president Laurie Goodlad, left, and past-president Don Kwano, who receive a cheque for $25,000 from the B.C. government’s Community Gaming Grant program.

For The TownSmanCRANBROOK – On

May 28, the Alive After Five program will be at Mount Baker Secondary School speaking to stu-dents about staying safe at work and knowing your rights.

“Studies show that young workers are 40% more likely to get hurt on the job. It is not be-cause they are inatten-tive or risk takers, but simply because they lack experience and training,” said Layne Clark, a facilitator with the Alive After Five pro-gram.

The presentation covers employer and employee responsibili-ties in the workplace, types of workplace health and safety haz-ards and, perhaps most importantly, workers basic health and safety rights, including the right to refuse unsafe work.

“What’s really unique about our program is that it’s peer to peer, meaning it’s delivered by young workers to young workers. Our fa-

cilitators bring unique perspectives, personal stories and humour to their presentation mak-ing it both interactive and interesting for stu-dents” said Clark.

With the support of teachers and schools province-wide, the pro-gram has engaged with more than 150,000 stu-dents since it started ten years ago.

“Reaching out to high school students is extremely important, many of them are just starting in their first job,” said Clark. “The goal of the program is to leave them with important in-formation about their rights and the confi-dence to ask questions about workplace safety.”

Alive After Five is one of five outreach pro-grams of the BC Federa-tion of Labour’s Occu-pational Health and Centre; which provides accessible health and safety education across British Columbia. It is funded by the Workers Compensation Board (WCB).

Cranbrook welcomes health and safety

training for students

said Laurie Goodlad, president of the Rotary Club of Cranbrook. “Receiving this gaming grant allows us to con-tinue helping many dif-ferent local organiza-tions.”

The club will be

using the money from the gaming grant to help support a number of important local orga-nizations and events, including Cranbrook Multicultural Day, the Cranbrook Arts Coun-cil, and the Cranbrook/

Kimberley Hospice. Every year, the pro-

vincial government ap-proves $135 million in gaming grants that ben-efit more than 5,000 local non-profit organi-zations that serve com-munities throughout

British Columbia.Organizations inter-

ested in applying for Community Gaming Grants can find infor-mation and applica-tions at pssg.gov.bc.ca/gaming.

B.C. is ramping up its efforts to help encourage the use of clean energy vehicles in the province. The provincial government has invested $10.6 million in Phase 2 of the Clean Energy Vehicle (CEV) program, making electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles

more affordable for people in B.C., while also helping to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. That includes a point-of-sale incentives program, which offers rebates of up to $5,000 for the purchase or lease of new battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and up to $6,000 for hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. When combined with the SCRAP-IT program, total savings could be up to $8,250 for qualifying vehicles.

Funding has also been set aside for investments in charging and hydrogen fuelling infrastructure, and to help organizations purchase CEVs in their fleets. These are all good and important moves towards helping B.C. reduce its emissions, but more can and should be done. The time to capitalize on these measures is now. At the New Car Dealers Association of B.C., we would like to see the province and municipalities give special treatment to people driving CEVs. In particular, we’re in favour of giving CEVs full access to High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes. This added incentive – which is offered in a number of jurisdictions across North America –would provide encouragement and incite more initiative to adopt clean energy vehicles in B.C. Policymakers and politicians here could model the program after the clean energy incentives in

California. The state has a law allowing single-occupant use of HOV lanes by a wide range of qualifying CEVs. The vehicles are issued Green Clean Air Vehicle decals, which indicate they qualify to occupy HOV lanes with just one person in the vehicle. California also has put a cap on the number of decals it distributes, capitalizing on the simple motivator of first come first served. According to the California Department of Motor Vehicles, more than 63,000 decals have been issued as of early April, out of a maximum 70,000 available. Ontario also has a program in place that allows electricvehicles with green licence plates to use HOV lanes, even if there is only one person in the car. The program expires at the end of June, but there’s currently a proposal on the table to extend it for at least another year. Today in B.C., HOV lanes are restricted to cars

and trucks with two or more occupants, as well as buses, taxis, and motorcycles. Since electric vehicles don’t produce GHGs, we believe it makes sense that they too should be allowed in the HOV lanes. If we’re trying to encourage consumers to choose CEVs to reduce emissions here in B.C., any incentives we can come up with – such as allowing CEVs the access to HOV lanes – should become part of the transportation plan. It’s also one more way B.C. can work towards its goal of reducing GHG emissions by at least 33 percent below the reported levels of 2007 by the year 2020.

And wildfires have forced about 2,000 peo-ple from their homes in northern Alberta.

Cyndi Taron, direc-tor of emergency man-agement with the Mu-nicipal District of Op-portunity, said a state of emergency was put in place Sunday night for the area, 330 kilometres north of Edmonton.

About 1,000 resi-dents of the hamlet of Wabasca and another 1,000 people from the surrounding Bigstone

Cree Nation checked into reception centres in Calling Lake and Athabasca, she said. Others were staying with friends or gone elsewhere with camp-ers and tents.

Mounties were going door-to-door in the communities and talk-ed with some people who didn’t want to leave, she added.

“It’s mandatory but the RCMP do not have the authority to start dragging people out of

their homes at this point,” Taron said Mon-day.

The out-of-control blaze first prompted an order to leave on Satur-day, but residents were allowed to return that evening after it was contained. They were forced out again Sun-day afternoon when wind pushed the flames past a fireguard.

“It just goes to show you how warm and dry it is out there,” said wildfire information of-ficer Geoffrey Driscoll.

Wildfires force evacuationsContinued from page 1

“…The important thing is that alcohol and marijuana—if kids are going to get in-volved, those are the ones they start with, they’re not likely to move on to anything else unless they’ve started with those two.

“So if we have fewer kids starting with those two, it means that

fewer kids are moving on to the other stuff.”

Unsurprisingly, al-cohol was among the first addictive sub-stances used at the av-erage age of 13 years old—a six-month in-crease in age from when the survey was first distributed in 2005. Average age of first-time marijuana

use was 13.9 years old, while tobacco was 13.6 years old.

However, digging into those numbers, the frequency of use paints a more detailed picture.

48.7 per cent of stu-dents who consume al-cohol only do it less than once a month, with 34.6 per cent con-sume one to three days a month. For marijua-na, 42.3 per cent use the drug less than once a month, while 21.5 per cent use it one to three days a month.

Nicholson noted that 25.1 per cent of re-spondents use mari-juana three to seven days a week.

“It’s the only drug that you see a big chunk of kids who are using regularly, and that’s a big worry for

us, because in adoles-cence, the research would say regular mar-ijuana use increases a bunch of risks such as depression, anxieties, schizophrenia, poor school performance—all these things go up with the heavier use.”

The survey also found that 30.6 respon-dents had tried e-ciga-rettes, which has be-come more popular as an alternative to tradi-tional tobacco ciga-rettes.

“That’s just kind of exploded on the scene and there’s a lot of un-certainty about what’s happening with that and what the risks are, so we wanted to get some baseline data,” said Nicholson.

In terms of prescrip-tion drug abuse, using family prescriptions

was the easiest way to get access to downers, stimulants and opi-oids.

“That was a bit of a surprise, I thought I’d see more stuff coming off the streets, but that’s really not the place the kids are get-ting stuff from, it’s from home,” Nicholson said.

For binge-drinking, the concern isn’t nec-essarily addiction, but the consequences that can result from a heavy amount of alcohol con-sumption in one sit-ting.

Only 18.5 per cent of respondents said they have never done binge-drinking, a de-crease from 30.1 per cent in 2005. However, 41.9 per cent reported binge-drinking less than once a month, as opposed to 31 per cent

in 2005. The trend is also decreasing for weekly binge-drinking, which is a good thing, added Nicholson.

“We’d like to see that overall number moving down, but still, it’s a very entrenched part of the culture and it seems to be a tough one to shift,” Nicholson said.

Driving while im-paired from alcohol and marijuana use has trended downward, but for the first time, marijuana surpassed alcohol as reasons why students would be im-paired behind the wheel.

“That’s going to be a big issue is how do you monitor for marijuana impaired driving, be-cause you can’t just simply do a breathalyz-er test, so there needs

to be more education about this, that it’s still risky, dangerous driv-ing,” Nicholson said.

Looking at screen time, either from tex-ting, using social media or video gaming was a new component of the survey this year, ac-cording to Nicholson, which in itself, can be part of addictive be-haviours.

“We had a lot of kids saying they had some kind of negative feed-back from their use, so 60 per cent of boys were trying to cut down on their gaming, 40 per cent trying to cut down on gaming, 65 per cent of girls trying to cut down on use of social media. 60 per cent of boys saying their gam-ing is getting in the way of other priorities.”

Arne PetryshenBoth a local resident

and Cranbrook RCMP were recognized for their work in stopping a jewelry theft gang in Cranbrook.

John Lamont, Jewel-lers Vigilance Canada, presented the awards.

Jewelers Vigilance is a group representing the jewelers industry and its members.

This is only the sec-ond time in Western Canada that the award has been issued. The other police department was the Vancouver Major Crime Unit.

Kayleene Woodward was awarded the Civil-ian Appreciation Award for individuals who have assisted law en-forcement.

“In appreciation for her assistance to the Cranbrook RCMP in their investigation and subsequent arrest of a jewelry theft gang,” Lamont said. “We’re also presenting another plaque to the Cranbrook detachment of the RCMP for their dedica-tion and professional-ism in the investigation and arrest of an organi-zation jewelry theft gang that was targeting the Cranbrook jewelry com-munity.”

At council on Mon-day Staff Sgt. Dave Dub-nyk explained what oc-curred that night Jan. 28. It was late when police received a call about an intrusion alarm at Koo-tenay Pawnbrokers. Po-lice arrived on scene

along with the business owner and his daughter.

“It was quickly deter-mined there had in fact been a break and enter at the business, as a sub-stantial amount of items from the business had been stolen,” Dubnyk explained.

Officers conducted an investigation, includ-ing looking at surveil-lance. The owner and his daughter helped to identify some of the in-dividuals who had been in the store earlier in the day, who Dubnyk said appeared to be casing the store out.

After conducting the initial investigation, offi-cers left the scene. A

short while later the business owner’s daughter identified a ve-hicle that was similar to one seen in the surveil-lance tape.

The vehicle was parked at a local motel and looked to have been driven recently.

“It was the only vehi-cle with no frost on it,” Dubnyk said.

Officers knocked on the door at night.

“A couple of the peo-ple in the room were taken into custody im-mediately, a couple bailed out the back win-dow of the motel room,” he said.

Police pursued the other individuals but

lost them. The next day social media responses and calls started coming in about some suspi-cious people in the south part of town.

Police took one sus-pect into custody, then later in the morning there was a report of a stolen vehicle. An officer was in the area and was able to identify a sus-pect. The last suspect was caught with the help of a police helicop-ter and Police Dog Ser-vices.

“It was a really good investigation which es-sentially every member of our detachment was involved,” he said.

T he Tories walk away from the election debate negotiations, the Liber-

als make a set of demands to suit their leader, and the small-er parties balk at being shut out.

That was 1968.Nearly a half-century after

the first televised match-up between Canada’s federal party leaders, some of the same positioning and postur-ing is still part of the story be-fore the debates get underway.

“The representatives of each party are fighting for every milligram of what they consider their due with the single-minded fervour of chil-dren dividing a chocolate bar,” Globe and Mail reporter Leslie Millin wrote that year.

Back then, Canadian politi-cal parties were well aware of the widely watched 1960 de-bate in the United States be-tween John F. Kennedy and Richard Nixon.

When the 1962 election rolled around, Liberal Leader Lester B. Pearson challenged Prime Minister John Diefen-baker to a televised showdown. The chief declined.

CTV, decided to put for-ward an offer for a 90-minute debate in 1968 - but it only wanted Liberal Leader Pierre Trudeau and Progressive Con-servative Leader Robert Stan-field to participate.

The NDP’s Tommy Doug-las declared the offer “dis-

Canada’s first TV debate was also a headache

crimination,” and the party vowed to mount a national protest. Trudeau demanded that all parties should be invit-ed and that the debate be bi-lingual —something that would give him an advantage over the others.

“Mr. Trudeau does not have the courage to meet Mr. Stan-field in a face-to-face debate,” Progressive Conservative na-tional chairman Eddie Good-man fumed, as talks appeared to falter.

Finally, CTV and CBC/Ra-dio-Canada got together to put forward a proposal, one that would see Trudeau, Stanfield and Douglas debate for 80 min-utes, with Creditiste Leader Real Caouette coming in for the last 40. There was to be simul-

taneous interpretation.Social Credit Leader A.B.

Patterson was not invited.Those were also the begin-

nings of the so-called television consortium and the unusual arrangement of the networks pooling their resources. The deal would sometimes rub other media outlets the wrong way - in 1968, journalists were barred from the Parliament Hill building where the debate was televised.

Fast-forward to 2015, and some of the same tensions have cropped up.

The Liberals are insisting on including all the parties, and want an equal number of French and English debates.

The Green Party and Bloc Quebecois are upset about

being excluded from different offers. The newly formed party Forces et Democratie hasn’t been invited to any of the major debates.

But this time around there also appears to be a breaking away from the model set in 1968.

An estimated 14 million Ca-nadians watched the debates in 1968, the same number as in 2011 even though the popula-tion has risen 12 million and there is one more national TV network.

That’s part of the reason given by the Conservatives for walking away from the consor-tium negotiations and insisting on alternative debates from dif-ferent hosts. They say Canadi-ans get their political news from different places now.

That’s given rise to propos-als by Maclean’s Magazine, the Globe and Mail/Google Cana-da, the Munk Debates, and sev-eral others. The consortium consisting of CTV, CBC/Radio Canada and Global News an-nounced a partnership with so-cial media companies includ-ing Facebook and Instagram.

Will any of them break away from the fairly standard format set back in 1968? It’s unclear. But even back then, not every-one was thrilled.

Said Pierre Trudeau that night: “I thought the whole thing was pretty dull...I wouldn’t want to impose an-other one on the Canadian public.”

Luke Pierce (above) was named the seventh head coach in Kootenay Ice franchise history on Tuesday morning.

Taylor rocc aSports Editor

Luke Pierce has been named the seventh head coach in Kootenay Ice fran-chise history.

When Jeff Chynoweth, president and general man-ager, set out to find a replace-ment for longtime bench boss Ryan McGill, he had four key points in mind: teaching, communication, patience and the ability to relate to to-day’s young player.

Chynoweth is convinced he’s found all of that in the 31-year-old native of Merritt, B.C.

“We talked to a lot of people and just kept coming back to Luke and his abilities,” Chynoweth said Tuesday. “Every-one I talked to, they talked about his teams getting better as the year progressed, how hard they worked and obviously with the turnover on our team, that’s going to be key for us.”

Prior to being named the newest head coach of the Kootenay Ice, Pierce was the head coach and general manager of the BCHL’s Mer-ritt Centennials since No-vember 2009.

Through six seasons, Pierce coached his home-town Centennials to six play-off appearances and a regu-lar season record of 168-111-21. He was named the BCHL’s

Interior Division Coach of the Year in 2012-13. He also served as an assistant coach for Team Canada West at the 2014 World Junior A Chal-lenge.

“I’m thrilled. It’s been one of my goals since I started coaching in the B.C. Hockey League -- I always kind of saw that as the next progression,” Pierce said over the phone from Merritt Tuesday morn-ing. “I’m delighted to be in the Western Hockey League, but even more so to be in Cranbrook. The opportunity

to work with Jeff Chynoweth, Gar-net [Kazuik], the rest of the staff that they’ve got there and the tradition and culture they’ve built -- it’s the absolute per-fect fit for me and my family and

we’re really excited about get-ting down there.”

The hiring of Pierce isn’t the first time Chynoweth has selected someone without major junior experience to be his next shot-caller.

Mark Holick came to the Ice as head coach in 2007-08 following nine seasons as a head coach at the Junior ‘A’ level. He’s now entering his third full season as head coach with the WHL’s Prince George Cougars.

Kris Knoblauch joined the Ice as an assistant coach in 2008-09 after one season as an assistant coach with the

Prince Albert Raiders. He was promoted to head coach of the Ice in 2010-11 after Hol-ick left to become the head coach of the AHL’s Syracuse Crunch. Knoblauch just wrapped up his third com-plete season as head coach of the OHL’s Erie Otters.

The lack of major junior experience didn’t phase Chynoweth then, doesn’t phase him now and it’s a challenge Pierce is looking forward to tackling.

“I coached against some very good coaches in [the BCHL], but there are some extremely good, experienced coaches in the Western Hockey League,” Pierce said. “The game management, bench management and all those little things -- I’m not an arrogant person -- I real-ize I have to keep my ears open and learn a lot that way.

“I’m looking forward to the challenge of it. I respect how good the league is. I re-spect how good the coaches in that league are. I look for-ward to learning from them and, at the same time, learn-ing how to beat them.”

With a roster that could see significant turnover, Pierce might be looking at tutoring one of the younger squads in the Western Hock-ey League come the 2015-16 season.

“The one thing with youth is there’s always enthusiasm, so I’m excited about that,” Pierce said. “It’s an opportu-nity for these guys. They’re

Taylor rocc aThe hockey world is a tight-knit

community, much like the small mountain town of Cran-brook. It is that very es-sence that helped land Luke Pierce in the East Kootenay as the newest coach of the Kootenay Ice.

According to president and general manager Jeff Chynoweth, his newest bench boss came at the recommendation of Jim Hulton, a former OHL head coach and NHL assistant coach (Florida Pan-thers).

Hulton, now the general manager and head coach of the USHL’s Tri-City Storm, worked with another Chynoweth -- Jeff’s brother Dean -- as a part of Canada’s gold-medal squad

at the 2004 World Junior Hockey championship.

So how does Pierce connect with Hulton?

Prior to his coaching days, Pierce played five seasons with Royal Mili-tary College (CIS) in Kingston, Ont., one cam-paign of which was under the tutelage of Hulton (2006-07).

Upon hearing of the head coaching vacancy in

Cranbrook, Hulton called Dean who then called brother Jeff and the rest is history, albeit recent.

From Kingston to Merritt to Cran-brook, Pierce has travelled a long way, but obviously made lasting impres-sions with those whose paths he has crossed.

The Chynoweth ConnectionPierce comes to Cranbrook highly recommended

Jay Henderson submits resignation

Ice assistant coach done after two seasons

Taylor rocc aFollowing the an-

nouncement of the hir-ing of Luke Pierce as the s e v e n t h head coach of the Koote-nay Ice, as-s i s t a n t coach Jay Henderson i n f o r m e d president and general manager Jeff Chynoweth he would be resigning from his position.

Henderson’s con-tract was set to expire June 30 and Chynoweth had said on the record

Luke Pierce will join club from Merritt Centennials of B.C. Junior Hockey League

Ice name 7th head coach in team history

extremely fortunate to be playing in the best junior hockey league in the world. We’re really going to push that and motivate them through that.

“We’ll live with their mis-takes. I’m all about growth. The only way you can allow players to get better is to allow them to make mis-takes. We’re going to be okay with that and the learning process.”

Young roster or not, both Pierce and Chynoweth are accustomed to success, so the potential roster turnover shouldn’t serve as any sort of ominous cloud in Cran-brook.

The Kootenay Ice hold an active WHL record for con-secutive seasons at .500 or above -- 16 seasons -- as well as an active WHL record for

consecutive playoff appear-ances -- 17.

Pierce took the Centenni-als to the BCHL post-season in all six seasons behind the bench and as far as he is con-cerned, he doesn’t plan on being the guy responsible for ending both lengthy streaks belonging to the Kootenay Ice.

“It’s a daunting task. It’s definitely a big challenge,” Pierce said. “I don’t want to be known as the guy who put an end to that type of a streak. At the same time, I have to be cognizant of this being a process and making sure we follow the right steps as I learn the league and the players learn me. It’s going to take us some time for sure.

“We’re going to compete, there’s no question.

“It’s [about] a relentless

work ethic. Scoreboards will take care of themselves if you approach the game the right way and you work your hardest.”

Prior to his coaching days, Pierce laced up as a forward with the KIJHL’s Revelstoke Grizzlies in 2000-01, tally 23 goals and 56 points in 47 games be-fore graduating to the BCHL and his hometown Centennials.

In two seasons with the Centennials, he stacked up 18 goals and 45 points in 108 games, before playing out his 20-year-old cam-paign with the Vernon Vi-pers.

To say Merritt holds a special place in Pierce’s heart would serve as a seri-ous understatement.

Along with his wife Amy and boys William, Bennett, and Austin, Pierce hopes to make the move from Mer-ritt to Cranbrook by July.

“It’s been such an amaz-ing experience here,” Pierce said. “I don’t think there’s many people that have the luxury of coaching a junior hockey team in their home-town. I grew up here, I played here, my parents are here and one of my brothers is still here. Being around family and living the highs and lows with them -- I’ll definitely miss it and the re-lationships I built with the people here.

“It’s been an exhilarating experience and there will definitely be some mixed emotions when I leave, but it’s all about looking at the future and embracing a new adventure.”

Rhymes with Orange By Hillary B. Price

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be in the limelight with your fiery display this morning. You can’t help but be that dramatic as you express your thoughts and perhaps even anger. Curb sarcasm if possible. A partner will start up a conversa-tion in the afternoon. Tonight: Go along with established plans. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You might be overthinking an in-vestment or expenditure. What is important to recognize is wheth-er you feel comfortable with it. A partner or trusted adviser might have a similar reaction, so get his or her feedback. Do more research, if need be. Tonight: Lie low. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You might need to make amends for your recent fireworks or sar-castic comments. You can hem and haw all you want, but a gesture needs to be made. Invite a loved one to a mutually en-joyable happening or a favorite dining spot. Tonight: It is better to have peace than war.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Keep reaching out to someone in order to clear the air. By the afternoon, you will want to be slightly more reclusive. Why not? It has been a hectic few days, and perhaps a little quiet time will help renew your energy and refresh your perspective. Tonight: Your home is your castle. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You could be more difficult than you realize in the morning. A conversation in a meeting could evoke a very strong reaction that might shock you. Know that this has more to do with your mood than with you. Initiate a more sensitive conversation later. To-night: Hang out. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Use the morning hours to the max, when you are more likely to win points and convince others that you are heading down the correct path. Take stock of your finances before making another expenditure. Revise your budget, if need be. Tonight: Pay bills first. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You probably won’t feel up to snuff until midday, but you’ll

make up for lost time in the afternoon. You will want to initiate a conversation and get to the bottom of an issue. The other party might not be ready to reveal his or her thoughts yet. Don’t push. Tonight: All smiles. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Use the morning hours to move forward with a goal. Use the afternoon hours for reflection and for figuring out what would be best to do under the present circumstances. You have not yet explored all the alternatives possible. Go for what you want. Tonight: Get some extra zzz’s. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Pressure builds to accommodate an older relative, boss or authori-ty figure, especially in the morn-ing. You will want to rethink a decision later on. A meeting or special get-together might fill up your afternoon. Make a point of being more sociable. Tonight: Out and about. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You have a vision that you have wanted to put into action. Today you will have a chance to present it to someone who could give

you powerful feedback. Share your feelings and ideas more often. You will feel better, and your confidence will be boosted. Tonight: A must show. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) A conversation needs to happen in the morning. Be as receptive and open to the other party’s thoughts as you would like him or her to be to yours. In the af-ternoon, detach and see where there could be a meeting of the minds. Tonight: Let your imagi-nation rock and roll. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) A partner keeps making the first move, which leaves you with little time to respond. You might be upset about this pattern, but in some way, you’ll find the situation somewhat humorous. Know that a boss or parent can be charmed into opening up. Tonight: Opt for togetherness. BORN TODAY Gunfighter Wild Bill Hickok (1837), actor Todd Bridges (1965), former National Security Advisor Henry Kissinger (1923) ***

Dear Annie: My father recently passed away. Dad was helping to support my 43-year-old brother, “Ben,” who suffers from depression and is on disability. Ben doesn’t work and spends a great deal of time in bed or buying liquor and lottery tickets. He’s always just a little bit out of it, and I think his antidepres-sants, along with his alcohol and drug use, have exacerbated the problem. He’s been under psychiatric care for 20 years, but he is still drowning in his depression. He recently completed his second college degree and is sending out resumes, but we aren’t too optimis-tic. He has never held a real job. Ben does not pay any bills, nor does he do much around the house to make up for it. My sisters occasionally clean the house, and my sister-in-law cuts his grass. Afterward, they scream at the rest of us about all the work they do without our help. There are six siblings. The house is in four of our names, but no one wants it. There is a life insurance policy and a will that divides everything equally, but Ben’s share is controlled by one sister who oversees his expenditures. Are we supposed to use the money from the will to keep Ben in the house? Is this our moral responsibility? Would it be better to sell the house and move Ben into an apartment that’s more manageable? None of us wants to pay out of our own pockets for repairs. Do we support Ben until the money runs out and the house falls apart? I don’t want to be greedy, but I also don’t want to be foolish. All we do is argue about this. Any suggestions? -- Ben’s Brother Dear Brother: You do have a moral obligation to help your brother so he doesn’t end up on the street. But it also seems that his current medication and therapy are not helping, and it may be time to get a second opinion about his medical care. Also, it could be more practical to sell the house and move Ben into a place that is less expensive to maintain so that his share of the money lasts longer. This will become a bigger issue as the house becomes more di-lapidated. Since you and your siblings are argu-ing about this, we urge you to speak to an experienced estate lawyer, who can discuss the various ways to deal with Ben and mediate whatever decisions you make. You all seem like caring sib-lings. Please don’t let this create an es-trangement. Dear Annie: I read the letter from “A Concerned Daughter and Mom-to-Be.” You could be very helpful in reducing stigmas about brain disorders by gen-tly reminding readers that her mother isn’t bipolar, but has bipolar disorder -- just as we wouldn’t say that someone is cancer, but has cancer. My neuro-psychiatrist friends are now using the term “brain disorder” instead of “mental illness” because the latter perpetuates the notion that it’s not a physical illness. But the brain is also part of the body. Thank you. -- M. Dear M.: You make some excellent points. Often, we can change percep-tion by changing terminology. We will try to keep your suggestions in mind for future columns. Annie’s Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitch-ell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

AssociAted PressThe name Shiite mi-

litias are using to de-scribe the Iraqi opera-tion to retake Anbar province from the Is-lamic State group is drawing ire from the Pentagon over its sec-tarian tilt.

The Popular Mobili-zation Units have named the battle that began Tuesday in Ara-bic: “Labaik Ya Hus-sein.” That means “I am here, Hussein” in En-glish. It refers to a grand-son of the Prophet Mu-hammad and one of the most revered figures of Shiite Islam.

That has added to the worries about the Shiite militias operating in Anbar, a predomi-nantly Sunni province long suspicious of the Shiite-led government in Baghdad.

At the Pentagon, spokesman Col. Steve Warren called the title “unhelpful.” He added: “We’ve long said ... the key to expelling ISIL from Iraq is a unified Iraq that separates itself from sectarian divides,” using an alternate acro-nym for the group.

Karim al-Nouri, a spokesman for the Pop-ular Mobilization Units, said the name wasn’t sectarian.

Al-Nouri said: “This name has no sectarian dimension (or mean-ing) because all Iraqis, regardless of their sect or religion, love Imam Hussein.”

c ANAdiAN PressLETHBRIDGE, Alta. - A

southern Alberta city council-lor wants to see the voting age in municipal elections low-ered to 16.

Jeff Coffman of Lethbridge

plans to present a resolution at the Alberta Urban Munici-palities Association conven-tion later this year.

Coffman received enough support from other Leth-bridge councillors to go

ahead with the resolution in September.

Coffman says allowing people to vote before they are 18 helps foster future partici-pation at the ballot box.

If his resolution is ap-

proved at the convention, it will go to the provincial gov-ernment with a request to amend the Local Authorities Election Act.

Coffman says he’s con-cerned about the steady de-

cline in voter turn out in the younger generation.

“The earlier you get some-one to vote, the more that habit sticks with them through their life,” he said. “If we can encourage people to

be voting that very first election, then that’s an opportunity for us to build a healthier demo-cratic process in the fu-ture.”
