Quebec skip Jean-Michel Menard had a perfect Sunday knocking off Alberta’s Kevin Martin and Territories’ Jamie Koe to stay unbeaten at the Tim Hortons Brier in Edmonton. MICHAEL BURNS/CCA Sponsor of the Day See Sponsor Profiles on page 14 Page 2 2013 Tim Hortons Brier – Tankard Times Howard outduels longtime rival JIM MORRIS The Tankard Times His team was careening toward the ditch but Kevin Martin was finally able to grab the steering wheel and get his Alberta rink on the winning path Sunday. Martin’s crew of John Morris, Marc Kennedy and Ben Hebert mended some tattered confidence with a 10-3 win over B.C.’s Andrew Bilesky in the evening draw at the Tim Hortons Brier, presented by Monsanto. Martin’s first win after two losses came in a game he couldn’t afford to lose. “The third loss doesn’t mean you’re out, but it puts your back against the wall,” said the 46-year-old skip who is looking to win a record fifth Brier. In Sunday night’s other marquee matchup defending cham- pion Glenn Howard of Ontario remained undefeated with a 8-5 win over Manitoba’s Jeff Stoughton. Ontario is 3-0 while Stoughton dropped to 2-1. “I really liked the way we played that game,” said Howard. “We got Jeff on an off day. “We didn’t get ourselves in trouble the whole game. It felt good.” A couple of misplayed draws cost Stoughton.

BY fOHN RIETI Michael Pickard's marketing depart­ ment is tucked away on the bottom floor of the Arts and Ad ministration Building. It's windowless, seemingly oblivious to the morning sunshine, and for an office so involved in graphic design it's fairly unglamour­ ous, adorned simply with Pickard's family photos. But from this office, Pickard and the Department of Marketing and Communications has launched one of the biggest changes ever for Memorial - a university re-brand­ ing. The brand was launched last Tuesday at the Inco Innovation Centre to an invitation-only audi­ ence of faculty, staff, and some stu­ dents. The crowd seemed interested, and by the end of the presentation they had plenty to digest along with the catered snacks. Memorial released an entirely fresh face, including a new theme, logo, colour pallet, advertisements, design elements and an integrating marketing plan for the entire 2006- 2007 university year. At the centre of the re-branding Faculty, staff, and students looked on as Memorial launched its new brand. is the word "become."
