Symphony is back

BARRY COULTER PHOTO

After a year’s hiatus, the Symphony of the Kootenays is back for its 38th season. The Symphony, under new Artistic and Music Director Jeff Faraghar, performed concerts in Nelson on Saturday night and Sunday, Oct. 20, at the Key City Theatre in Cranbrook. Almost 400 people turned out to the KCT to hear the program featuring works by Aaron Copland, Tomaso Albinoni, Bedrich Smetana and Felix Mendelssohn. See more later this week in the Townsman.

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

super-sized, pleasant tasting formula.

Why you should consider a LIQUID multivitamin supplement. Many experts now believe that consuming vitamin supplements in liquid form is substantially more benefi cial than relying on solid pills-a belief that is supported by research studies: “liquid supplements contain the nutrients in a more highly bioavailable form, are gentler to the stomach, and sometimes are more suitable than solid supplements, especially for children and elderly patients.”The liquid advantageA liquid multivitamin supplement offers a number of benefi ts over solid forms for people of all ages, but especially for older adults or those with known digestive issues. Among the benefi ts are the following:• Liquids are quickly and readily absorbed, as they do not fi rst need to be broken down.

Bladder ControlWhat you can expect from this product: • Reduces urinary frequency • Helps control urinary incontinence

• Reduces nighttime urinary frequency • Helps control an overactive bladder • Strengthens the bladder muscles • Helps reduce prostate swelling.

Numerous individuals over the age of 40 experience an ever growing problem regarding the weakening of the bladder and the sphincter muscle that controls the release of urine. This condition often relates to an increased urgency to urinate and/or the inability to control urination. Even though weak bladder control

aff ects both genders, there are twice as many women who suff er from it as men. Ultimate Bladder Control contains 100% natural form of a patented water-soluble pumpkin seed.

Pumpkin seeds have a long history of use in helping to alleviate various bladder conditions. Pumpkin seed oil is often sold as an accessory ingredient in bladder aiding formulas due to its signifi cant ability to

alleviate urinary diffi culties. However, according to new research, it is the water-soluble portion of pumpkin seed that is much more eff ective. A major reason for this is due to the effi ciency in which water-soluble

pumpkin seed is absorbed into the bloodstream.Water soluble pumpkin seed extract is able to strengthen the pelvic fl oor muscles of the bladder.

Teck has purchased more than 7,000 hect-ares of land in the Elk Valley from Tembec, purely for conservation purposes.

The two businesses – one, the East Koote-nay’s largest employer, and the other, formerly one of the East Koote-nay’s largest employers – announced the $19 million sale late Thurs-day, October 17.

Within the next two months, three parcels of land will be transferred to Teck’s ownership.

The Grave Prairie property is 3,059 hect-ares in size, located 7.5 kilometres northeast of Sparwood, and, accord-ing to environmental group Wildsight, is an important wintering area for elk.

The Alexander Creek parcel, 3,098 hectares in size, is 10 kilometres east of Sparwood, on the north side of High-way 3 next to the Alber-ta border. The property allows wide-ranging wildlife such as grizzly bear and lynx to move between Waterton-Gla-cier International Peace Park into the Rocky Mountains.

Finally, Teck pur-chased 992 hectares known as the Flathead Townsite, in the Upper Flathead Region, 28 ki-lometres southeast of Sparwood.

“These lands are not amenable to mining,” said Nic Milligan, Teck’s manager of community and aboriginal affairs.

“They were pur-chased in order to work in cooperation with First Nations, commu-nities and other stake-holders to ensure they are used to protect key wildlife and fish habitat in the Elk Valley and Flathead River Valley

Tembec passes the baton to TeckThree huge

properties in the Elk Valley have passed between two of the EK’s

biggest companies

now and for the future.”The sale has been

applauded by conserva-tion groups in B.C., Al-berta and Montana who are working to protect the Flathead Valley.

“We’re very excited that Teck has made a significant investment to purchase and work towards conserving this important wildlife and fish habitat,” said John Bergenske, Wildsight’s executive director.

In 2010, the B.C. gov-ernment and Canadian government signed an agreement with the state of Montana and the United States gov-ernment to protect the Flathead, which is adja-cent to the Water-ton-Glacier Interna-tional Peace Park, a des-ignated World Heritage Site.

In November 2011, the B.C. government passed the Flathead Watershed Conserva-tion Act, which bans mining, oil and gas ac-tivity in the Flathead.

Teck said it is invest-ed in maintaining the East Kootenay’s envi-ronmental values.

“Our employees live and work in the Koote-nays and they want to ensure its vibrant econ-omy and natural splen-dour is maintained for future generations,” said Milligan. “We strongly believe that by working in partnership it is pos-sible to have both world-class mining and a world-class environ-ment.”

In coming months,

Teck will discuss how the properties should be managed with First Nations and other Elk Valley stakeholders.

This is the second sale of East Kootenay lands that Tembec has announced in the past month. On September 30, it revealed the $4.2 million sale of 1,875 hectares west of St. Mary Lake to Nanai-mo-based company Jemi Holdings Ltd.

Tembec hopes to sell off 64,500 hectares of land in the East Koote-nay, with the goal of making $75 million by the end of 2014.

The remaining prop-erties are in the St. Mary Valley, near Canal Flats, and south of Cran-brook.

Tembec has had a presence in the East Kootenay since 1999 when it purchased the Elko and Canal Flats sawmills from Crest-brook Forest Industries. In November 2011, Tembec sold those mills to Canfor.

This March, Tembec sold its Skookumchuck pulp mill to Vancou-ver-based Paper Excel-lence Canada.

The site of Cran-brook’s shuttered plan-er mill still belongs to Tembec. The mill was shut down in 2010 and destroyed in a fire last year. A sawmill on the same site was closed in 1999.

Tembec also an-nounced this week that its Cranbrook-based vice president of the

Forest Products Group, Dennis Rounsville, is retiring this year.

Rounsville began his career with Crestbrook and worked for Tembec

in Cranbrook until it sold its East Kootenay mills, then relocating to the company’s head-quarters in Quebec.

“Dennis Rounsville

has been a valuable member of our execu-tive leadership team, and a significant con-tributor to Tembec and the forest products in-

dustry through his long career, and we wish him a fruitful and happy re-tirement,” said Tem-bec’s President and CEO James Lopez.

The federal govern-ment is looking to in-crease safety in the transportation of dan-gerous goods as more oil and other hazardous materials are transport-ed by rail.

MP David Wilks fur-ther explained the move.

“Some of the regula-tions that will be pro-posed by the govern-ment will tighten up the requirements for the railways to ensure that dangerous goods are handled in a responsi-ble manner,” he said adding that the stiffer regulations and penal-ties would put a lot more onus on the rail compa-nies to ensure proper mechanisms are in place to prevent an inci-dent like the one that occurred in Lac-Mégan-tic in early July.

“We want to ensure that those things never happen again,” Wilks said.

He said things like braking systems and leaving engines on while unattended will be be brought up to a higher standard than today’s standard.

Transport Canada said there are over 30 million shipments of dangerous goods mak-ing that make their way across Canada every

year, with 99.9 per cent making it to their desti-nation without incident.

Minister of Transport Lisa Raitt issued a direc-tive that requires any person who imports or transports crude oil to conduct classification tests on crude oil. This, it is hoped, will further enhance safety in the transportation of dan-gerous goods.

“Our government re-mains committed to taking action to protect public safety, and we will take targeted action to increase the safety of the transportation of dangerous goods,” Min-ister Raitt said last week. “We are continuing to do that today with the issuance of this protec-tive direction.”

The new direction, which takes effect im-mediately deals with any person who imports or transports crude oil. To meet the guidelines they must:

• Conduct classifica-tion testing of any crude oil being classified as UN 1267 or UN 1993, which has not under-gone classification test-ing since July 7, 2013;

• Make those tests re-sults available to Trans-port Canada upon re-quest;

• Update their Safety Data Sheets and imme-diately provide them to Transport Canada’s Ca-nadian Transport Emer-gency Centre;

• Until such testing is completed, ship all such crude oil as Class 3 Flammable Liquid Packing Group I, when shipping by rail.

Transport Canada is working with the Trans-portation Safety Board as it continues its inves-tigation into the Lac-Mégantic disaster. Transport Canada is building upon the safety advisories received from the Transportation Safe-ty Board and is further enhancing the safety of railway operations and dangerous goods trans-portation in Canada.

The Transport Cana-da investigation follow-ing the accident in Lac-Mégantic is still on-going.

As the fall advances into November, bucks of both the mule and white-tail variety will begin to enter the rut, and residents of Cranbrook and Kimberley should exercise caution around such displays.

In the weeks leading up to the rut (into November and December) bucks increase their displays of dominance and indirect threats.

A dominant buck typically circles a rival with deliberate

steps; back arched, head low and tail flicking.

Bucks can also display dominance by violently thrashing the bushes with their antlers.

Bucks will engage each other in a show of dominance, and while it can be fascinating to watch, the message from the Kimberley Urban Deer Com-mittee is, do it from a distance.

“The general message is, stay away from bucks,” says Kimberley Urban Deer Com-mittee Chair Gary Glinz. “They

are wild, you never know if they will take a run at you. Leave a wide berth when you see a buck following a doe.”

Glinz says that as bucks enter the rut, their hormones are raging and they are far more focused on breeding than anything else. Staying away from them is just com-mon sense.

Often, Glinz says, larger bucks will enter town during the rut after staying away for most of the year. These bucks will leave again after the rut,

and you can ensure that they stay away be managing attrac-tants.

A particular attractant right now are mountain ash berries, something people may over-look when making sure apples and plums are picked.

Bucks are burning energy during the rut and need to re-plenish it, with mountain ash berries being a good source.

To report an incident to the Conservation Officer Service, please call 1-877-952-7277.

Two bucks go at it in Townsite last week, with a third either refereeing or waiting to join in.

tOwnsmAn stAffA local environmental edu-

cation group has been nomi-nated in BC Hydro’s Commu-nity Champions program.

The Columbia Basin Envi-ronmental Education Network (CBEEN) is the only East Koo-tenay finalist in the program, which will see five B.C. groups win a $10,000 conservation award.

“We are extremely pleased to have received a submission from an organization in the East Kootenay and it’s very ex-citing to see them chosen as one of 15 finalists from 34 high quality video entries BC Hydro received,” said Sally Masters, BC Hydro East Kootenay Com-munity Relations.

“The Columbia Basin Envi-ronmental Education Network

provides important educa-tional programs in schools in the Columbia Basin and is rec-ognized for their environmen-tal leadership in our commu-nity.”

This award program recog-nizes non-profit organizations within British Columbia that demonstrate environmental leadership in their communi-ty.

The public can vote for CBEEN daily until November 15 by going to www.bchydro.com/communitychampions.

“If CBEEN was to win this award, it would allow 1,000 more students  from the Co-lumbia Basin with the oppor-tunity to take part in environ-mental education field trips and presentations,” CBEEN said in a statement.

Last year, CBEEN made it possible for over 8,000 stu-dents to take part in 345 envi-ronmental education presen-tations and field trips across the six school districts of the Columbia Basin. These in-cluded outdoor excursions such as snowshoeing, ava-lanche safety training, pond explorations and opportuni-ties to see Kokanee Salmon spawning.

In-class presentations cover topics such as endan-gered local wildlife and the history of our area in the form of fossils and archeology.

CBEEN currently has 79 local community educators who deliver over 150 curricu-lum linked programs. The public can learn more about WVFK and the programs avail-

able by going to www.cbeen.org/wvfk.

The Community Champi-ons Program also engages youth via BC school class-rooms on conservation proj-ects by offering valuable les-son plans around sustainabili-ty and asking classrooms to determine which non-profit organization participating in the program they wish to sup-port. By participating, their classroom is entered into a random draw for a chance to win a $1,000 award to use to-wards their own school-based conservation project.

“We encourage the public and schools to visit www.bchydro.com where they can vote and support a local sub-mission,” added Masters.

economic developmentIt was with great interest that I read Mr.

McRae’s article in the Bulletin (Thursday Oct 17), in which he dismissed the idea of an economic development idea based on what appears to be nothing more than his own opinion. Although a prison may not be on everyone’s top ten list of economic development ideas, it and all ideas should at the very least be open for discussion.

Do we immediately say no to potential opportunity that can offer a massive boost to our local economy simply because Mr. McRae doesn’t like the idea? Unfortunate-ly we really don’t know what the commu-

nity thinks. We have not offered an open and free opportunity for anyone to weigh-in on the idea. There has been no opportu-nity for council to vet the idea. What do we say to members of the community that see a potential large construction project as opportunity? What do we say to citizens who think the possibility of an influx of a few hundred families to the community as a good thing? What do we say to upwards of 15 million dollars injected into the local economy annually... no thanks we are sit-ting back with our feet up on the desk waiting for “non geographic dependent businesses” to come calling?

As an elected representative I feel it’s not so important what I think, but critical to what the community thinks. Its insulting to citizens that I or any other elected offi-cial can determine “emphatically” what will be endorsed (or not) without asking.

If this is a dead duck Mr. McRae, then please tell me what great non-location de-pendent businesses are in the works. What have you been working on? Our communi-ty (like others) is faced with (to many) jobs that are chronically low paying, in addition we are also facing serious infrastructure

sustainability issues that will cost in the order of tens of millions of dollars over many years to deal with. Maybe we can organize a lollypop parade and take dona-tions to help pay for all this, eh?

Many thanks to Don McCormick for showing amazing energy, true leadership, phenomenal networking and communica-tion ability, and above all raw guts to leave no economic opportunity stone unturned. Good for you Don McCormick, keep up the “Great” work!

Here we are again, at the end of an-other interesting cycle in North American politics.

The first question is — who among you didn’t know the Amer-icans would come up with a last minute, Hail Mary, long-bomb to avoid the U.S. going into default?

You knew they would — they had to. Nobody, not even the lowliest Tea Party idealogue, would have allowed the United States to default on its loans. It’s not just a question of throwing the world economy into chaos — in case you weren’t aware, the U.S. owes some big coin — it’s also a question of pride. The U.S.A. has always prided it-self as the country all other nations look up to and wish to be. They came perilous-ly close to losing that standing this week as those same Tea Party ideologues took the nation to the brink of financial ruin trying to stop a bill that was already law.

The Republicans, led by the far right of their party, thought Obama and the Democrats would blink. They truly did. And they had reason to believe they would. Obama has blinked plenty of times over the past six years in pursuit of that mythical concept known as biparti-

sanship. But he didn’t blink this time, perhaps sensing that for once public opinion really was on his side.

And for all their efforts, what has the Republican Party gained? A big fat nothing. Not one concession. Nada. They have managed to ruin the career of the Speaker John Boehner, who is unlikely to survive the fallout of this disastrous attempt to make a point. They have

held up for the world to see the huge schism in the Republican Party, which is tearing itself apart from the far right.

To make matters worse, the whole debt ceiling question will come up again in a couple of months because the long bomb, Hail Mary pass to avoid default only kicks the problem down the road until January of 2014. Then another bill will have to deal with the budget question again.

So all that angst was for nothing.Meanwhile, north of the border, the

Canadian government, which prorogued Parliament for several months, returned to the House of Commons — or rather the Senate chamber where the Throne Speech was delivered Wednesday.

The speech itself was the usual offering

of promises to all and sundry, but will it succeed in taking the mind of opposition parties off of the scandals of the summer past? Highly unlikely. Whether Prime Minister Harper intended the break from Parliament to change the channel from Senate spending scandals and other un-desirable topics or not, it is unlikely the NDP or Liberal parties will allow those scandals to slip from memory.

With police investigations into the spending of such Senators as Pamela Wallin ongoing, the matter is not likely to go away. The NDP and Liberals would be foolish to let it go. And face it, a politician of any stripe or party, will be a pit-bull when he/she senses weakness in an op-ponent. There are too many unknowns — as in who knew what — around the Senate spending scandal for the NDP or Liberals to let it die.

Harper will have to face the questions in the House. Whether he chooses to an-swer them or not is up to him. But they will be asked.

So all that proroguing was for nothing.It’s enough to make a person cynical

about politics.

On a recent trip to the grocery store, Nelson author Deryn Collier

was stopped by a reader. “I real-ly think you should be writing. Go home. Right now. I need to know what happens to Bern.”

Coroner Bern Fortin, pro-tagonist in Collier’s debut novel Confined Space, has that effect on a lot of readers. To find out why – as well as why it was chosen by library users across the Kootenay and Boundary regions as this year’s One Book One Kootenay

(OBOK) selection – you need to read the book, and in fact the Kootenay Library Federa-tion encourages Kootenay booklovers to do just that. Copies of Confined Space are available at every library in the region.

Then mystery-lovers and others will want to come to a special presentation by Deryn Collier at the Cranbrook Public Library on Thursday, Oct. 24 at 7 p.m.

Confined Space introduces Bern Fortin, coroner for a

small Kootenay town, as he in-vestigates a murder in a brew-ery. Local readers may find the setting familiar since Collier drew on her experiences of when she worked for a time at Columbia Brewery in Creston before settling in Nelson for inspiration. Earlier this year, Confined Space was shortlist-ed for the Arthur Ellis Award for Best First Crime Novel by the Crime Writers of Canada.

One Book, One Kootenay is a region-wide book club sup-ported by public libraries in

the East and West Kootenays, the Kootenay-Boundary area, and the Columbia Basin Trust. Visit www.obok.ca to find out more about the program, a video interview with the Col-lier, as well as details of the upcoming the fifth annual OBOK.

Call the Cranbrook Public Library at 250 426 4063 to sign up for Deryn Collier’s reading on Thursday, October 24th at 7 pm. It promises to be a sus-pense-filled and entertaining evening.

“I don’t know how many more peo-ple need to die at sea before some-thing gets done,” said Malta’s prime

minister, Joseph Muscat. “As things stand we are building a cemetery within our Mediterranean Sea.”

He was talking about the part of the Mediterranean between the North Afri-can coast and the two islands that are the closest bits of the Europe-an Union: the Italian is-land of Lampedusa and his own country, Malta. In the past two weeks, al-most as many migrants have died in that narrow stretch of water – only 120 km. (80 miles) separate the Tunisian coast from Lampedusa – as died along the US-Mexican border in all of last year.

On the southern US border they most-ly die of thirst in the desert; in the Medi-terranean they drown. The migrants pay the people smugglers in Libya or Tunisia thousands of dollars each to make the crossing in small, unseaworthy, grossly overcrowded boats, but the smugglers don’t go with them. They don’t want to get arrested at the end of the journey. They just hand over the keys to the mi-grants.

The refugees – more than half of the 32,000 who have reached Italy so far this year come from Syria, Somalia or Eritrea – have no experience at sea. The boats leak, they run out of fuel, they catch fire, and nobody knows what to do about it. In many cases, the boats just capsize when everybody rushes to the same side to call for help from a passing ship or aircraft.

Then they are in the water, and of course there are no life-jackets. Last week, when 359 Somali and Eritrean migrants drowned in a single boat, nobody even

had a satellite phone to summon help. Most of the migrants can’t swim, and even those who can often drown before help arrives. Every sinking brings stories of parents who could swim, but had to choose which children to save.

“For us it’s intolerable that the Medi-terranean is a sea of the dead,” said Prime Minister Enrico Letta of Italy on Monday,

announcing that his coun-try is tripling its air and naval presence in the death zone. But as Interior Minis-ter Angelino Alfano warned, “It’s not a given that the in-tervention of an Italian ship will mean that migrants are taken to an Italian port.”

They don’t want the migrants to die, but they don’t want them to stay in Italy either. As in other European Union coun-tries that are getting a lot of asylum-seek-ers, the flood of migrants from Africa and the Middle East is fuelling a powerful an-ti-immigrant backlash.

The numbers are not really all that huge. Frontex, the EU agency that deals with refugees, recorded only 272,208 asy-lum-seekers last year. That’s the biggest number since 2005, but it’s only a drop in the bucket among the EU’s 400 million people.

The problem is that they almost all head for a few relatively rich countries in western Europe – Britain, France, Germa-ny and the Low Countries – or else end up stranded in Greece, Italy or Spain, the countries closest to where the refugees sail from. And for Italy, in particular, the problem has got a lot worse recently.

A joint EU police force managed to close off the previously favoured route for Middle Eastern refugees, the Greek-Turk-ish border, in 2010, but that just redirect-ed the migrants to sea routes across the

Mediterranean. The recent revolutions in Libya and Tunisia have crippled the abili-ty of those countries to control their own coasts. And the wars in Syria and Somalia are generating ever larger numbers of desperate asylum-seekers.

The Italians do let most of the migrants stay – although Germany accused Italy last May of encouraging the refugees to move on by giving them 500 euros ($680) and a “Schengen” visa that allows them to travel to most other EU countries without passport checks. But the brutal truth is this: the safer the EU countries make the Mediterranean crossing, the more people will try to come.

Most of the migrants currently risking their lives in those little boats are genuine refugees, but behind them, in the vast sweep of countries from West Africa to Somalia and Iraq, there are several hun-dred million others who would leap at the chance of moving to Europe. The nation-alists in those countries will indignantly deny that, but you only have to talk to or-dinary people there to know that it is true.

Europeans, like most people, want to see themselves as generous and caring, but behind all the humanitarian talk there is the stark reality that the EU will never make it so easy and safe to get in that even a small fraction of that vast reservoir of would-be migrants actually tries to make the journey. European leaders who let that happen would be committing polit-ical suicide.

The least bad solution would be to en-courage the emergence of stable govern-ments in Tunisia and Libya that could stop the boats from leaving their shores, but that will not happen any time soon. In the meantime, people will go on drown-ing in the Mediterranean, although hope-fully in smaller numbers than the catas-trophe of the last few weeks.

The number three was a recurring theme for the Koo-tenay Ice this weekend, which picked up a trio of points over three nights in games against the Saskatoon Blades and the Edmonton Oil Kings.

Kootenay fell 4-2 to the Blades in Western Financial Place on Friday, then headed up to Edmonton for a pair of tilts, where they came out with a 4-3 win on Saturday and a 3-2 overtime loss on Sunday.

The Ice got some rein-forcements in the defensive corps on Saturday night, as Russian import defenceman Rinat Valiev finally settled his visa issues and flew into Al-berta to join the team.

Rookie Hudson Elynuik also picked a good time to score his first career WHL goal, which stood to be the game-winner on Saturday night.

Utility man Jeff Hubic re-mained in the defensive

corps to cover the absence of the injured Tanner Faith, who is out indefinitely with an upper body injury.

“I think my role is to just keep it simple,” said Hubic. “That’s how I’m trying to do everything.”

Goaltending duties were split up, with Wyatt Hoflin standing in net against the Blades, while Mackenzie Skapski manned the crease for both games against the Oil Kings.

Hoflin surrendered three goals in 29 shots for the loss, while Skapski was beat three times on Saturday in 31 shots and allowed the same num-ber of goals in 26 shots on Sunday.

Kootenay Ice head coach Ryan McGill lamented last week that he wasn’t getting enough secondary scoring, however, that changed this weekend as players other than Sam Reinhart or Jaedon Descheneau found the back of the net.

Hubic and Austin Vetterl both scored their first goals

of the season to mark Koote-nay’s only offence against the Blades.

Hubic pinched in from the point and collected his own rebound for his goal, while Vetterl waited out the goaltender and sniped the five-hole on an odd-man rush.

Reinhart and Deschene-au did everything they could to score; the former rang a shot off the iron and the lat-ter missed a wide-open net, however, both collected as-sists on Hubic’s goal.

At the first intermission of the game, Vicki Syfchuck, who was participating in a breast cancer fundraiser, was released from the comforts of a 2014 Sierra GM truck, where she had been spend-ing the last 30 hours.

Collin Valcourt broke a 2-2 tie in the third period and Clayton Kirichenko scored on the empty net as the Blades took away the win.

Nitros cool to Rockets, explode against Rockies, Nitehawks

TRE VOR CR AWLEYSports Editor

Despite a brief set-back, the Nitros regained their fire, collecting four of six points over the weekend with a loss and two wins.

Kimberley lost a 4-2 decision to the Rockets in Golden on Friday, completed a comeback on Saturday to win 5-4 in overtime over the Rock-ies and hammered the Nitehawks 6-2 on Sun-day in Fruitvale.

The four points cata-pulted the Nitros back on top of the Eddie Moun-tain division, as the Rockies had briefly pulled ahead before the weekend action.

The game against the Rockies was especially important, said Andrew Stack, who scored the game winner in overtime on Saturday night.

“Obviously Columbia Valley is in our division, so divisional games are

always huge, and espe-cially in a game like to-night—I think they had a point on us going into first place, so coming out with this win was big for us, because we want to

stay on top of the division this year, for sure,” Stack said.

daily townsman / daily Bulletin

Dear Annie: I’m a 50-year-old male, mar-ried for 20 years to a beautiful woman in her 40s. The past five years have been hard. I have made mistakes during our marriage, but have worked hard to change and be a better husband. I don’t drink, smoke or gamble. I love my wife dearly and have never cheated. I don’t want anyone but her.

Unfortunately, my wife displays no emo-tion toward me in any way. Everything we do together is fine, and she is a wonderful com-panion, but her coldness is killing my spirit. I don’t want to spend the rest of my life like this. I want us to enjoy each other’s compa-ny. I have dealt with this for as long as I can, and I think I’ve reached the end of my tether. I need help. -- Crushed

Dear Crushed: We don’t know what you did in the past that may be contributing to your wife’s coldness toward you, but if you have made genuine efforts to redeem your-self for five years, she needs to cut you some slack before it’s too late. There’s a point at which punishment becomes counterpro-ductive, and you’ve reached it.

Please talk to your wife and let her know that the current situation has become in-tolerable and you cannot continue in the marriage like this. Ask her to go with you for counseling to work on ways to warm up and improve your relationship. As always, if she refuses, go without her.

Dear Annie: I am a member of a large family. We are planning a beach vacation for next summer and are having issues with how to share the expense of the rental house. The house sleeps 14.

I think the fair way to share the expense is to divide the total rental cost by the num-ber of occupied beds. Other members of the family (those with children) can’t afford that much and say costs should be split equally between the adult siblings. That means it would cost me, a single adult, as much as it would my sister’s family of four. It also means the cost would be divided by seven instead of 14, so the total price is a lot higher per sibling.

I don’t feel I should have to subsidize my sister’s kids’ vacation. What do you think is fair to all parties? -- Shore To Cause a Prob-lem

Dear Shore: Unless your siblings’ spouses and children don’t plan to eat, bathe or use electricity, the cost per person is higher than just a bed. But dividing all costs by the num-ber of people may mean that your siblings cannot afford it and won’t come. So what’s “fair” may not work for your family. Figure out the costs per person. (Very young chil-dren should not count the same as adults, and anyone who gets a bedroom to himself should pay a little extra.) Then determine what each sibling can afford of their frac-tion of the total. The siblings who can afford more might choose to pool extra money to make up for those siblings who are less well off. The important thing is to discuss and agree on the price in advance.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from “Dev-astated,” whose family will not accept her relationship with an African-American man.

Our daughter married a black man in 1975. My biggest reservation was the prej-udice that their children might face. But they handled it in an exemplary fashion. They taught their two lovely daughters to tell people, “My dad is black and my mother is white, and that’s just the way it is.” I learned to love my son-in-law as if he were my own child. He is a special man. They have been married 37 years and counting.

I side with you, Annie. It is really no-body’s business. I hope “Devastated” will go for it. -- Proud Mother in Kansas

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You could be as clear as a bell, but you still will witness a lot of confusion. Your intuition will counter what you are hearing. You might become irritated and angry as a result of this misun-derstanding. Know that every-one is human. Tonight: Choose a stressbuster. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)Be aware of the cost of not be-ing as thorough as you could be in a certain area of your life. You might feel as if a risk is worth taking. Make sure you look at the worst-case scenario before you commit. You’ll be less likely to make a mistake. Tonight: Run errands on the way home.GEMINI (May 21-June 20)You’ll be ready to proceed full throttle, but you could get tripped up by a misunder-standing. You are slightly acci-dent-prone, and you might not be ready to take off on a phys-ical jaunt. Relax, and choose to do only what feels right. To-night: As you like it.

CANCER (June 21-July 22)You might think one way, but within hours, you could reverse your direction. The elements of indecision and confusion eas-ily could mark your day, if not the next few weeks. Try to give yourself some space to figure out what you want. Tonight: Start thinking about Halloween.LEO (July 23-Aug. 22)Confusion starts right now, whether it is around you or within you. Be as succinct as possible. Your diligence will keep you out of trouble. Use caution and good sense before spending money or committing to any investments. Tonight: See through the obvious.VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)Your anger flares easily. The is-sue is how you handle it. Some-how you could be involved with a misunderstanding today or in the near future. No one likes be-ing misrepresented. A partner or associate will seem vested in not getting it. Tonight: Claim your power.LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You are all smiles, no matter

which way you look at a per-sonal matter. At this moment, you will want to detach to gain a new perspective. Don’t let this attitude undermine being supportive. Confirm meetings and times. Tonight: Release any tension through exercise.SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)Deal with a partner directly. Even if some tension ensues, know that you have done better than anyone else could. Your imagination might conjure up a lot of reasons for the problem that might not be grounded. Let them go. Tonight: Even if it is Monday, go let off some steam. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)Defer to others, as your per-spective might not be heard at the present time. A boss or someone you look up to could be cantankerous and touchy. Meanwhile, you could be think-ing in other terms and not con-necting. Tonight: Go along with someone’s suggestion.CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19)Stay focused on what you are doing. Confirm all plans. Misun-derstandings easily can happen.

Understand your limits. Let your creativity emerge in a discus-sion. Know that your message might not be digested and un-derstood by everyone. Tonight: Be diplomatic.AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)While others are in the midst of confusion, you seem to car-ry on with the playfulness of the weekend. Your easygoing attitude might help you, but it could aggravate someone close. Be as clear as you can be about plans. Others will be touchy. To-night: Deal with someone’s ire.PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)Defer to others as much as you want. Confusion surrounds a partner’s feelings. This person might not be as clear as he or she should be, and you might not be able to read between the lines. In fact, you most likely are seeing only what you want to see. Tonight: Stay close to home. BORN TODAYChemist Alfred Nobel (1833), actress Carrie Fisher (1956), bandleader Dizzy Gillespie (1917)***

Top Ten Reasons to Advertise in a Newspaper

1. Advertise to Reach New Customers.Your market changes constantly. Advertising is tremendously helpful in directing customers to the product and services they need, and helps put you ahead of your competition.

2. Your Competition Isn’t Quitting.You’ve got to advertise to get your share of business or lose it to the stores that do. If you cut back on your advertising, you may forfeit new prospective customers to your competition.

3. Advantage Over Competitors Who Cut Back.A five year survey of more than 3,000 companies found that advertisers who maintained or expanded advertising during a troubled economy saw sales increase an average of 100%.

4. Continuous Advertising Strengthens Your Image.When people who postpone buying come back to the marketplace, you’ve got a better chance of getting their business if you’ve continued to maintain a solid, reliable image.

5. Direct Advertising is Cost Efficient.Direct has the advantages – demographic and geographic numbers to afford advertisers the best value and exposure for their advertising dollar.

6. Advertise to Generate Traffic.Continuous traffic is the first step toward sales increases and expanding your base of buyers. The more people who contact you, the more possibilities you have to make sales.

7. Advertise to Make More Sales.Advertising works! Businesses that succeed are usually strong, steady advertisers. Look around. You’ll find the most aggressive and consistent advertisers are almost invariably the most successful.

8. Advertise Because There is Always Business to Generate.Salespeople are on the payroll. As long as you’re in business, you have overhead and you’ve got to advertise to generate a steady cash flow.

9. Advertise to Keep a Healthy Positive Image.In a troubled economy, rumors and bad news travel fast. Advertising corrects gossip, shoots down false reports and projects positively.

10. Advertise to Maintain Employee Morale.When advertising and promotion are cut, salespeople become less motivated. They may believe the store is cutting back, even going out of business.

Want to reach new customers? We read the newspaper every day, Monday to Friday.
