Richmond golfer hits two aces in the same round

Women bound, man stabbed, but nobody's talking

Kuni Ikeda pulls off a 1-in-67 million feat

Staff Reporter

by Neil Corbett Black Press Some golfers will go their entire life without ever hitting a hole-in-one. Others have one or two, and they remember those shots like the births of their children.

But two aces in the same round?

That’s a feat estimated at one-in-67 million, that only some 200 golfers have ever accomplished.

Kuni Ikeda pulled it off on Saturday at the Meadow Gardens Golf Club in Pitt Meadows.

The Richmond resident had never hit an ace before, in more than 20 years of golfing. But at the 102-yard, par three fourth hole, she put a good swing on the ball with her pitching wedge.

“It was a nice hit—I was so comfortable,” she said, and she watched as the ball landed about five feet from the hole, and then rolled in. She reacted like a lottery winner.

“We were jumping up and down on the greens.”

The next one came on the par three seventh hole, which is 129 yards. Ikeda hit her number four rescue iron, and looking into the sun lost sight of her ball.

The hole is surrounded by a water hazard, and when the ball wasn't visible, Ikeda

started looking in the water for it, then they looked in the rough. They finally found it in the last place they looked— in the hole.

This time her reaction was more stunned: “Really? Are you kidding,” she laughed.

“It’s unbelievable. Amazing.”

She was the talk of the course all weekend, and into Monday, when a Vancouverbased television news team took her out onto the course to tell her story.

“In the history of golf, this has rarely happened,” said Hanna Brychkouskaya, operations manager at Meadow Gardens. “It’s amazing news.”

There were three witnesses, as part of her foursome in the Ladies Club Summer Open.

Brychkouskaya said the club tradition is that everyone who gets an ace gets their name on a plaque, as well as a keeper trophy. She is not sure how to commemorate Ikeda's feat, except “it has to be something special.”

The 69-year-old, has been a member at Meadow Gardens for going on four years, since retiring from her career with a lumber company, and now plays a round almost every day. She is a 19 handicap golfer.

“I do it for exercise—for my health, and not as much for competition.”

But she has accomplished something that has only been done once in a PGA tour event—by Yusaku Miyazato in 2006.

“I can’t believe it—it’s so shocking.”

by Martin van den Hemel A pair of unrelated violent incidents involving uncooperative victims has Richmond Mounties frustrated.

Late Monday, around 10:48 p.m., Richmond RCMP received a 911 call about a home invasion at an apartment building on Elmbridge Way. But when police arrived, the two victims denied calling the police, and remained uncooperative.

Then, in a bizarre twist, the two alleged victims left the country, leaving investigators with next to nothing to work on, Richmond

Ping Zhu found carrying $57,000 worth of undeclared goods

Kuni Ikeda hit her first ever hole-in-one on Saturday, and then hit another one three holes later.

An eagle-eyed border services officer helped nab a traveller who failed to declare tens of thousands of dollars worth of goods last December after arriving at Vancouver International Airport.

Ping Zhu returned to Canada on Dec. 4, and declared $200 worth of goods at the automated border clearance kiosk.

But at the baggage carrousel, the officer approached her to verify her declaration. That’s when the officer noticed she was wearing a luxury ring that appeared to be new, according to Perry Boldt, assistant director of communications for the Canada Border Services Agency, Pacific Region.

When questioned about a watch

she was wearing, Zhu admitted she imported the watch in March of 2012 but hadn’t declared it.

She also admitted the luxury pendant necklace she was wearing, was being brought into the country for the first time.

The officer then noted that the expensive luxury ring she had been wearing earlier was gone.

When asked about the ring, Zhu pulled it out of her pocket.

All of the undeclared items were seized, valuing a total of $57,070.01.

Last week, Zhu appeared in Richmond provincial court, where she was fined $6,248.62, an amount equal to the duties and taxes she tried to evade.

She will also have to pay a penalty equivalent to between 20 and 80 per cent of the value of the seized goods in order to get them back.

RCMP Sgt. Cam Kowalski said.

On Tuesday morning, police were called to the Holiday Inn on Cambie Road, just west of Shell, where a man suffered two knife wounds to his upper chest around 6:20 a.m.

Kowalski said the injuries were not life-threatening, and the victim was taken hospital.

But investigators are not receiving any cooperation from the victim, or the witnesses to the incident, who themselves may have been involved in the altercation that led to the injury.

“We’ve got a lot of nothing, a victim but no story,” Kowalski said.

3 suitors in the running to buy Steveston Secondary District eyeing $30 to $50 million windfall from sale of old high school

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter And then there were three.

At last week’s Richmond Board of Education meeting, trustees and district staff shortened the list of potential development partners for the unused Steveston Secondary School site from five to three during an in-camera session held behind closed doors.

And although the names of the three local developers remains a secret, board chair Donna Sargent said all have had “deep discussions” with City of Richmond staff about possible uses for the 13-acre parcel on No. 2 Road, a halfblock north of Steveston Highway.

“We know they’ve been working with city staff,” said Sargent, who added: “It will be the mayor and council who decide on what happens. We have spoken to mayor and council and they know our goal, as far as what we potentially would be doing with the money. We are creating a city together and council are aware of that.”

The land is currently zoned school/public use, and will

need to be rezoned to accommodate other types of residential development, which requires the approval of the city.

Sargent said the three finalists have been given an opportunity to tweak their proposals based on the feedback they received during the private meetings, with each expected to present a proposal for sale on July 22.

All the final five developers were “very well respected in the city” and made “fantastic proposals.”

But recognizing that only one can be chosen, the list was shortened to three based on a rating system employed in the areas of vision, voice and value.

Sargent wouldn’t say if each developer was asked to place a dollar figure on their proposal, noting that the discussions have been happening out of the public’s view because they are negotiating.

The developers have not seen their opponents’ bids, Sargent said.

What happens after July 22 remains undetermined.

“I don’t know what the board will decide as the next step, but we are in a tight timeline.”

Asked how much the district is hoping to fetch in the sale, Sargent said it’s between $30 and $50 million.

“That’s our understanding of the value of the land,” she said.

In a previous interview, Sargent said the potential uses for the site aren’t set in stone, and could include a daycare, a senior’s housing facility, or a mix of different styles of residential housing.

Mayor Malcolm Brodie was not available for comment at press time.

City Centre residential towers buoy local construction sector Two 16-storey towers of Mandarin Residences lead the way in year’s first half

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter A two-tower development on No. 3 Road at the end of the Canada Line helped carry the local construction sector in the first half of 2013.

From January to the end of June, Richmond City Hall issued 871 building permits with a value of $247.2 million—a seven per cent drop from last year’s six-month total.

Among the approved projects is the $60.8-million Mandarin Residences: two 16-storey towers with 348 homes and a new home for Scotiabank.

Fairborne Group and the Wall Group of Companies are building the towers, located next to RichmondBrighouse Station.

In June, the city issued 151 permits worth $23.7 million. Permits approved last month included one for a $4-million alteration of a former hotel at 9020 Bridgeport Rd. The alteration is part of a Vancouver Coastal Health project to transform the building into a complex care facility that will house residents

of the aging Lions Manor facility in Steveston.

Pricey single-family homes also contributed to the city’s building permit values this year, including one with a construction value of $2.1 million on agricultural land at 9431 No. 6 Rd.—one of the most expensive house projects in recent years.

But June’s total pales in comparison to April, when the Mandarin Residences towers buoyed the value of 146 permits to $115.5 million.

April proved to be a strong month across Metro Vancouver, according to the Vancouver Regional Construction Association. Interim president Jan Robinson said in a news release the month was the strongest for residential permits since July 2012.

Meanwhile the association’s overall forecast for 2013 calls for a slight decline from 2012.

“The outlook for regional commercial and industrial investment is modestly favourable since the regional economy and population base will continue to grow,” noted Robinson. “However, stronger economic and market conditions in general will be needed for a significant upturn in commercial and industrial permits beyond 2013. This month’s residential performance is not expected to be repeated as the mild correction phase in the housing market is ongoing.”

Building permits for required for new construction, change of use, additions or alterations to structures.

Richmond’s Kara Gerlach, 25, is combining her passions for dancing and cheerleading as a Felion.

Felion gives fans reason to roar Richmond dancer among 35 women who cheer on the B.C. Lions football team each home game

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter Kara Gerlach is known to turn a few heads on game day. The Richmond woman is a member of the Felions, the dance team for the B.C. Lions tasked with cheering for the Canadian Football League team—and meeting fans.

“Interacting with fans is one of my favourite parts of being a Felion,” said Gerlach, 25. “It’s great to interact with them and feel all the love that they show for us.”

The Felions prowl outside B.C. Place before games, selling calendars, signing autographs and, of course, posing with fans for lots of smartphone photos.

This is Gerlach’s second season with the Felions, who cheered the home team to its first win of the season July 4.

She’s among 35 dancers in the group, many who balance full-time jobs, university schedules and dance training

with their Felions commitments.

Gerlach grew up in Richmond and has been involved with dance throughout her life. She trained at Richmond Academy of Dance and Vancouver Academy of Dance, and was a cheerleader at H.J. Cambie Secondary. As a recent BCIT graduate, she’s now interning at a public relations firm.

“The Felions combined my love for cheerleading and dance, so I was naturally drawn to it.”

The squad rehearses weekly and don orange uniforms every home game to cheer on the Lions from the sidelines.

Felions also make regular appearances in the community, representing the team at numerous charity and corporate events—about the only time they interact with players.

“The players are there to play football and we’re there to cheer them on,” she said.

As for how the Lions—now 1-1 on the season—will follow up last year’s Western Final finish, Gerlach is hoping to cheer the team on in Saskatchewan for the championship game.

Said Gerlach: “I’m hoping that they’ll make it to the Grey Cup and we’ll get a chance to cheer them on in Regina.”

B.C. visits the Edmonton Eskimos this Saturday before returning home to B.C. Place to host the Eskimos on July 20.

A survey found 18 per cent of B.C. smartphone owners consider themselves strongly addicted to the device.

Are you a smartphone addict?

64 per cent own one and use it an average 1.7 hours a day

by Jeff Nagel Black Press If you own a smartphone and find it hard to put the device down, you’re not alone.

A new poll by Insights West found 64 per cent of B.C. adults own one, they use it an average of 1.7 hours a day and have an average of 27 apps installed on it.

The survey found 18 per cent of B.C. smartphone owners consider themselves strongly addicted to the device —most of those say it’s manageable—and an additional 43 per cent call it “very important” to their lives.

Sixty two per cent of smartphone owners check it at least hourly and a compulsive six per cent check it more often than every 10 minutes.

Self-described addicts spend an average 2.5 hours a day actively using their phones, the poll found.

Insights West president Steve Mossop said the heavy us-

Section of Elmbridge closed for sewer work Elmbridge Way will be temporarily closed between Hollybridge Way and Westminster Highway until July 18.

Storm sewer removal and replacement work will be undertaken adjacent to 6951 Elmbridge Way. Local traffic access to Elmbridge Way will be permitted via Westminster Highway only.

Access to River Road and the Richmond Olympic Oval will be via No. 2 Road or Gilbert Road for those approaching from the southwest.

age shows how profoundly the devices have transformed daily life and quickly become pervasive.

“Look at kids and how glued they are to their devices and some of us adults as well,” Mossop said.

“It has implications all around, from driving while you’re texting, to social relationships, to impacts on other things you do with your time, like exercise, TV watching and newspaper readership.”

According to the poll, more than three-quarters of smartphone owners said that if they left home for the day without their device they’d return home to retrieve it.

Among young adults age 18-34, the smartphone ownership rate soars to 86 per cent.

Asked what sacrifices they’d make to avoid giving up their phone for three days, 70 per cent of young adults would rather give up Facebook, 25 per cent would give up computer internet access and 25 per cent said they’d rather be stood up for a date. Just 18 per cent of younger users would give up their device ahead of those alternatives, compared to 26 per cent of users aged 35-54 and 57 per cent of those 55 and up.

Checking social media is a common use.

A majority of users say they use their smartphone as their main way to use Twitter, more than a computer or a tablet, while a computer was still the preferred way to use Facebook.

Actually making phone calls remained the top smartphone use, just ahead of texting.

But email, searching for information, taking or sharing photos, checking the weather, researching products or services and using map apps to get directions were also among the most common uses.

Smartphone ownership in B.C. now spans nearly two thirds of the population and has surpassed PVRs (52 per cent own one) and MP3 players (55 per cent), while rapidly closing in on landline telephones (71 per cent.) And it’s still climbing.

At least a fifth of non-smartphone owners said they intend to get one within the next year.

Half of smartphone users have already bought something via the device and more expect to use it for purchases in the future.

More than a third of those surveyed said it’s important for them to have the latest smartphone.

n the minds of many Canadians, the purpose of the Canadian Senate is a bit of a mystery.

It’s a body that’s not elected, what it accomplishes is less than clear, and news about it only erupts when politicians talk about reform, or more recently, when senators play fast and loose with the purse strings of taxpayers.

The original purpose of the Senate was to give a sober second thought to bills passed by

elected Members of Parliament, and, according to its website, to bolster underrepresented groups, such as women, Aboriginal people and minorities.

When it comes to being a champion of Aboriginal, women’s or minority rights, the Senate is perhaps the last organization that leaps to mind.

As well intentioned as the Senate was when created in 1867, today the body is effectively a patronage system for the ruling party to reward loyal and often high-profile Canadians with

prestigious well-paid jobs.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper has long advocated reforming Senate terms and appointment procedures, or even doing away with it altogether.

That hasn’t stopped him from appointing 56 Conservative senators (and two elected in Alberta) over his time in office.

If Parliament can’t abolish the Senate or it accepts that it has a reason to exist, change is desperately needed.

Does it make sense that New Brunswick and Nova Scotia have

10 senators each and Quebec has 24, while Alberta has six and B.C. has five?

For the Senate to have credibility, rather than act as a vehicle for patronage and self-serving party loyalty, each province should have an equal number of elected senators.

Senators themselves should not be sitting silent, and should be seeking to reform an institution that has no accountability or credibility in terms of working in the interests of Canadians.

Get ready for Hydro rate hikes

B.C. Views

Tom Fletcher

T

here’s a new sheriff in town for BC Hydro, and it didn’t take long for the political range war to resume.

The new sheriff, Kootenay East MLA Bill Bennett, found himself on the barricades as soon as he got the hugely complex responsibility for energy and mines. His saddlebags bulge with reports on BC Hydro’s seemingly runaway costs, along with Premier Christy Clark’s “core review” to cut $50 million a year from government operations.

NDP energy critic John Horgan highlighted the latest BC Hydro troubles in his assault on the B.C. Liberal budget. First there was a $140 million cost overrun on the Northwest Transmission Line, under construction north from Terrace to the tiny Tahltan village of Iskut and adjacent mine properties.

Then BC Hydro revealed results of an audit of its earthquake preparedness.

“Condition red” was the key message. Basically, the sprawling utility has disaster plans for each of its dams or other power facilities, but no overall way to get the provincial power grid back up after a major earthquake.

Horgan recited his list of BC Hydro sins after a

Ruskin Dam is being refit to bring it up to modern earthquake standards.

decade of meddling by the BC Liberals: huge deferred debt revealed by the Auditor General, enormous liabilities for private power contracts, and more rate increases that Bennett has already admitted are on the way. And now they can’t even keep us safe from the big one.

Bennett fired back.

About $2 billion of that debt is for seismic upgrades for the 80-yearold Ruskin Dam in Maple Ridge, and the equally frail John Hart Dam on the Campbell River, built with wooden water pipes. Major BC Hydro works slowed down after completion of Revelstoke and Mica dams in the 1980s, and now the work is more expensive.

The Northwest Trans-

mission Line is a partnership with Imperial Metals, which wants to power its Red Chris coppergold-silver mine. Bennett said the company is not only paying for the last section to Iskut and the mine site, but pitching in for the main line as well. Ottawa paid $130 million to get remote communities off decades of dependence on diesel generators.

AltaGas, owner of one of those private power projects in the region, puts in $180 million to get connected to the grid. The line will open up more mining and hydro possibilities.

The cost overrun traces back mainly to the shortage of high-skill labour such as geotechnical en-

gineering that the remote region already faces. And this is before natural gas pipelines and LNG plants gear up.

Bennett takes over from the last sheriff, Rich Coleman, who put BC Hydro through the wringer in 2011. Coleman soon abandoned his idea of putting off the Ruskin and John Hart upgrades (again) to keep rates low through the election, and saw the B.C. Utilities Commission jack up the rate increase to seven per cent to help slow the ballooning debt.

What’s ahead for rates?

The utility is looking for 32 per cent in the next three years, says energy lawyer David Austin. He calculates that only 2.5 per cent is attributable to increased private

power costs. Among other things, BC Hydro needs regional emergency centres capable of functioning after a Japan-sized quake, plus expansion.

Bennett came clean on another reason for rate increases – the government’s increasing dependence on taking a “dividend” as BC Hydro’s lone “shareholder.”

The newly updated budget tells us this annual “dividend” is past $500 million and rising fast: $545 million this year, $611 million next year and $684 million the year after.

letters Garden City Lands could be a great park Editor: Re: “Make Garden City Lands a great space,” Letters, July 5.

What a great letter! I’ve read the on-going discussion about the Garden City Lands for a very long time, but this letter really started me thinking about how wonderful it would be to have a beautiful park instead of buildings, playing fields, community gardens and such, or any combination of.

I, too, have been to some of the great city parks, like Hyde Park in London and Central Park in New York, and I remember marveling at their beauty and the wisdom of city planners on entering these parks, not to mention feeling thankful for respite from the city.

Life has become too busy, and this makes having access to beautiful green spaces increasingly important for health reasons, I think.

So now I know which side of the Garden City Lands discussion I’m on—Richmond, make the area a big, beautiful park to be enjoyed by all for years and years to come!

Does it really matter if we lose a few farms?

Editor: What a great Richmond Review edition on Friday June 28. There sure is a lot of food growing happening in Richmond.

So many food related articles: Garden City Land saved, Steveston educational garden, local farmers flourishing, feed-u-cate inspiring students, sharing farm. No less than six farm market ads. Wow, almost more than we know what to do with locally.

So what does it matter if we lose a few farms?

After all, those trucks of demolition waste need a cheap place to dump their loads right? Why not find a land owner who “has to build a road?”

Once the soil is ruined up pops a massive beige building that might be a hospital or a school, but no, it’s a fifty-room empty house. Just what I want to see on a cycle or walk in our agricultural land reserve? Not! No one there to celebrate Mud Day. Julia Boak Richmond

City council gets a raise Editor: Re: “City council salaries jump in Richmond.”

Mayor Brodie explains that salaries are raised to put Richmond council in the top 25 per cent versus five other cities, which puts council in the top two.

Firstly, what happens if the other five city councils do the same thing, each wanting to be in the top two?

Secondly, who says that the Richmond council performs in the top 25 per cent and deserves to be in the top two? Mayor and council?

How Onni can contribute to the community Editor: The Onni public information meeting notice re Imperial Landing, suggests a visit to its website at www.waterfront rezoning.com.

On checking, the fourth line states “Over the course of this development, Onni has made consistent contributions back to the community.” This may create the impression that Onni contributed: the revitalization of Phoenix Pond, including the pedestrian connection bridge; the entire boardwalk from No.1 Road to Railway Ave.; public art/historic artifacts throughout the site. The facts are that the approved development plan produced by B.C. Packers included a commitment for these needs and that Onni, in purchasing the site and development plans were obligated to complete them. Onni was were effectively compensated for undertaking this important work by the sale of homes, condos and townhomes on the site between Bayview and Moncton Streets.

Has the Onni Group incorpo-

rated anything of significance in their development of the B.C. Packers property which enhances the character and charm of Steveston and provides benefits for residents and the community?

What became of the potential $1.5 million contribution offered by Onni toward future waterfront or other community amenities. What happened to the amenity contribution of one residential condo valued at $300,000,offered as an affordable rental unit? Why did Onni decline to consider providing commemorative recognition of the history of this special Steveston waterfront land and its contribution to the economy and the growth of the community. Where are the green grass areas for relaxation and public enjoyment? Why was the priority of the public calling for no more than two-storey buildings not respected?

In 2007, Onni rezoning proposals were based upon a division of residential to the east of Easthope Avenue and commercial/retail to the west.

As the only vehicle access to the Imperial Landing site is via Bayview Street, this division was a positive approach in limiting congestion and served to protect the residential and less active nature of the eastern section. Adopting this concept, would serve the community well.

I feel that in seeking a bailout from the community, Onni should first explain its motivation for increasing building space and creating the vacancy problem. I strongly believe that any acceptance of commercial/ retail, would be best restricted to the two buildings west of Easthope Avenue. Building 3 should be dismantled to open up the outlook to the waterfront. The ground floor of Building 4, with adjacent parking, would be appropriate for a child care centre. The ground floors of Buildings 5 and 6 should be turned over to the city for use in a way which will serve the best interests of the community.

Editor: Re: “City council salaries jump ... councillor’s wages have risen 72% in seven years,” June 28.

You know what? I think I will give myself a nice raise! No, wait— I can’t do that, can I? I’m not a politician so I can’t feather my own nest whenever I feel like it. But I guess If I am not arrogant and self-serving enough to be a politician I should just be quiet and learn to struggle along with what I have.

But I still like what journalist Ambrose Bierce once said: “Politics: The conduct of public affairs for private advantage.”

Succinct enough for me!

Pedestrian dies after struck by car

RICHMOND, BC

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT

A 58-year-old woman has died from her injuries after being struck by a vehicle Monday morning on Westminster Highway, a half block east of Garden City on Arcadia Road.

The woman was hit around 10:40 a.m., and was rushed to Vancouver Hospital for treatment.

The driver of the vehicle that struck the woman remained at the scene. Neither speed nor alcohol were contributing factors, according to police.

Richmond RCMP Sgt. Cam Kowalski said pedestrians should be mindful of their surroundings when crossing intersections or roadways, and to use designated crossing areas.

Witnesses to the crash who have not yet spoken to police are asked to call 604-278-1212.

Multi-faith food drive brings in thousands Thousands of dollars in cash, and thousands of pounds of food were collected during a multi-faith food drive benefitting the Richmond Food Bank and held Sunday afternoon at the Safeway outlet at Blundell and No. 2 Road.

After working closely together for years, representatives of the Beth Tikvah Synagogue, Our Savour Lutheran Church, St. Anne’s Anglican Church and St. Joseph the Worker Parish were enlisted to participate in a joint effort to help feed Richmond’s many needy families.

Francie Steen, of the synagogue, came up with the idea, and judging from Sunday’s results, it was a huge success.

A total of 2,100 pounds of food, including 1,600 pounds collected at Safeway and another 500 pounds collected at St. Joseph, and more than $6,000 in cash, including $3,800+ collected at St. Joseph’s and another $2,364 at Safeway, was collected.

“Congratulations and thanks to each one for your initiative, planning, work and generous contributions,” wrote Richmond Food Bank executive director Margaret Hewlett.

Everywhere in the community

by Gen Handley Black Press Long before she became the marketing director for UsedEvery where.com, Lacey Sheardown was a borderlineobsessive user of the classifieds site.

“I was always on there — I was an avid user,” she says with a laugh. Her home is filled with furniture and other unique items she bought or found for free on Used Everywhere. “So when I got this job, my friends were like, ‘Yeah, that makes sense.’”

But what drew Sheardown to the site was more than the satisfaction of treasure hunting.

Unlike other classifieds sites out there, this was a place where she could look for a new coffee table without stumbling across an ad for a casual NSA encounter at the local park.

“We’re actually family friendly,” she says. Across more than 80 cities and towns, the site has a real, live monitoring team, checking ads every hour of the day, ensur-

In Vancouver, you might find the community co-ordinator at the farmer’s markets or most recently at the Vancouver Children’s Festival where Used Everywhere was a major sponsor.

The company is also involved with projects such as a car and booster seat recycling program that took place last month (they recycled 83 expired seats) as well as a new initiative in the next month to work with local business, allowing them to advertise on the site and connect with buyers.

Their community coordinators even look for personal opportunities to help locally through the Angels program. Last year, for instance, they helped a Vancouver woman undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer by finding breast milk for her baby.

Sheardown says community involvement is a big component of the company’s DNA. “It’s a social responsibility,” she says.

“Our site is about reusing, reducing and recycling and so being a part of the community and helping in other ways is connected that.”

Whitecaps loan local talent to soccer team in Bavarian region

by Don Fennell Sports Editor Vancouver Whitecaps’ prospect Caleb Clarke is back in Germany.

The 20-year-old forward from Richmond has been loaned by the Whitecaps to a men’s team in Augsburg, a city in the southwest region of Bavaria, for the balance of the 2013 soccer campaign. The German season begins in August and continues through next April.

“He’s absolutely stoked,” said Caleb’s dad, Clive. “Caleb wanted to play more and so this opportunity was worked out between his agent and the Caps.”

Clarke played in two Major League Soccer matches with the Whitecaps last season but has spent all of this season with the reserves. He previously tried out for FC Rot-Weiss Erfurt in Germany during 2012.

Meanwhile, Caleb’s sis-

ter Summer, 18, is anxious to play as a member of the Whitecaps’ under-18 women’s team in the Gothia Cup July 15 to 20 in Gotherburg, Sweden. Clarke currently leads the team in scoring with 18 goals, tops in the Pacific Coast league. She will kick off her college career at Louisiana State University in September.

Spice up your summer wardrobe with accessories Celia Leung Fashion Stylist

W

ith the warm weather and increased opportunities for casual get-togethers with friends, summer is the perfect time to wear overthe-top accessories.

Perhaps it’s because the season just makes everyone more cheerful, or that we wear less in the heat and need another way to

express our sense of style. Either way, bold jewelry, shoes, or bags are always a great and easy complement to any tank and shorts combo or sundress.

For a trendy way to incorporate accessories, try one of the biggest fashion trends of this season: black and white. Whether it’s in the form of a classic black and white checkered bag seen at Louis Vuitton or a mod pair of whiteframed sunglasses at Moschino, opposites attract in this summer accessories trend.

Because the colours are neutrals, black and white accessories will go well with all shades of clothing.

Clear, lucite details have also been making a strong impact in jewelry, bags and even the platform and heel of shoes. Gucci and Chanel both created translucent purses for the season, while see-through details such as heel straps and side panels were spotted at many designers such as Michael Kors and Givenchy. For those who want to carry a translucent bag but prefer to keep some of their items concealed, store them in a small separate pouch before popping them into the see-through purse. It’ll also provide a tidier look.

Gladiator sandals

are also in for shoes.

But what makes this season’s trend different from the gladiator sandals popular a few years back is the bolder, knee-high approach. Presented in a multitude of shows such as Altuzarra, Tom Ford and Alexander Wang, the dramatic look is definitely not for the fashion shy.

Try pairing it with a basic black dress for a stylish night-on-the-

barbecues.

For bags, crossbody purses and small satchels were popular on the runway. Lanvin, Stella McCartney and Diane von Furstenberg all showcased smaller but bold handbags in their collections. On the opposite end of the spectrum, shopper totes are also trendy.

Perfect for the beach or picking up dinner ingredients at the For a classic look that’s also on trend, accessorize with a black and white satchel. (Source: AldoShoes.com)

town outfit. Be wary of awkward tan lines if you’re rocking the knee-high gladiators trend in the daytime, though!

Overall for shoes, the trend is to leave the skinny stilettos in the back of the closet and opt for stacked, chunky heels. Balenciaga showed oxfords with cubed heels, Fendi studded the block heels of their shoes, and Chloe accessorized their models with an updated version of Mary Janes.

The trend is a throwback to the 70’s when blocked and platform heels were de rigueur.

At least this season’s shoes won’t have you sinking your heels into the lawn at backyard

farmers market, totes are ideal for those warm days where spontaneity takes rein.

You’ll be at the ready with a tote packed with essentials such as sunscreen, swimsuit and shades.

For sunglasses, oversized ones are always popular. But this year’s trend is also for round framed retro glasses reminiscent

of John Lennon’s. Although if you’re planning on investing in a pair of sunglasses, find one that will complement your face shape instead of following a seasonal trend. For round faces, go for oversized rectangular frames. More angular faces will suit round frames while aviators will flatter those with heart-shaped faces.

Most frame styles will go with oval faces, but I’m partial to shades with slight cat-eyes for a little retro glam.

Another easy accessory trend to incorporate is gold.

Accent your day and night ensembles with gold sandals, belts or chunky link chains. Gold cuffs always make a striking impression to an otherwise neutral

look. For a more bohemian look, add some fringed elements. Try a fringed necklace for a cheeky touch on a minimal ensemble.

Bright dangly earrings are also popular for summer. Dolce & Gabbana accessorized their models with long earrings made up of colourful beads and clusters of raffia.

Whatever your sense of style summer’s a great time to experiment with accessories, so go wild!

Synergy nets Provincial Cup soccer championship

by Don Fennell Sports Editor Richmond Synergy’s Provincial Cup triumph at Langley’s Willoughby Fields Sunday was bittersweet.

The local side won the B.C. under-15 girls’ title with a dramatic 3-2 victory over the 2012 provincial champion Kamloops Blaze on penalty kicks, after the latter forced extra time by storming back from a 2-0 halftime deficit.

Goalkeeper Carmen Milne preserved Synergy’s victory by standing particularly tall in the one-on-one shootout in which she stared down four of five Blaze players. Ellie Reid and Jessica Zawada, meanwhile, scored for Richmond.

“It was the best way to capture what was really a dream season, and not just from a results perspective,” said coach Ron Ng. “These girls have become a phenomenal group that truly loves being together. It has always been a pleasure to head out to the field.”

Unfortunately, turnover is inevitable and next year’s Synergy team will most certainly look different. Six players have indicated a desire to play at a higher level and another multi-sport athlete feels unable to make the necessary commitment to the team. But Ng looks at the changes positively, confident the 11 returning players will help mentor the anticipated five new players coming in from the younger programs.

Synergy have truly reflected the team moniker. Under Ng’s guidance, the girls have been inspired to consistently play a possession-style game that is exciting to play and watch—besides producing victories. It has earned them many accolades and fans.

“We just really believe it’s the best way to play the game and enjoy it, while being able to display your talent and skill which fits in with our objective of inspiring players for life,”Ng explained.“I’m really proud of the way we play and how the girls have conducted themselves.”

The weekend was doubly rewarding—though nail-biting— for Ng, whose son was part of the Richmond United squad that edged Burnaby 3-2 in the under-18 boys’ final. (See story, Page 19).

Canada earned its first medal at the 27th Summer Universiade Tuesday in Kazan, Russia.

Richmond’s Evan Dunfee teamed with fellow B.C. athletes Inaki Gomez and Ben Thorne to win bronze in the 20-kilometre race walk. Their combined third-place time of four hours, 20 minutes and 35 seconds left them behind only Russia (4:04:31) and Ukraine (4:08:09).

Like his teammates, Dunfee was happy with the medal but also called the result bittersweet.

“It’s great to win a medal but right now it’s hard for me to truly appreciate it because I’m pretty disappointed with my individual result,” said Dunfee, who also earned his second caution near the midway point of the race.

“I felt so good today, possibly the best I’ve ever felt at the 10km mark. But like Ben, I knew I had to shut it down for the team.”

The trio will be back in Russia next month for the IAAF world athletics championships in Moscow (Aug. 10 to 18). Gomez and Thorne will compete in the 20km, while Dunfee qualified for the 50km event.

Judo gives Kim balance Canadian gold medalist qualifies for cadet worlds

by Don Fennell Sports Editor Sam Kim will celebrate his 17th birthday next month in Miami, competing among the most promising judoka in the world.

The Steveston Judo Club athlete qualified for the 2013 World Cadet Judo Championships Aug. 8 to 11 by winning gold at last weekend’s Canadian championships at the Richmond Olympic Oval.

“It’s kind of the culminating point my training.

It means a lot of hard work has finally paid off,” says the affable Kim, who began practising judo as an elementary school student.

The martial arts represent much more than simply sport to Kim, who explains it is both physical exercise and mental development.

“The discipline I get from it is really important, as well as the mental strength. It’s helped me in other areas of my life such as school and music,” he says. “For me, balance is really important.”

Kim shares his gold medal with his coach and training partners, all

of whom he says were instrumental contributors.

“We trained pretty hard the last two months before nationals, about four times a week. We pushed each other really hard, but once we got to nationals I tried to approach each match one step a a time. I tried not to think I had to win four matches to gold.

Probably my worst habit is over-thinking, and this time I didn’t really want to know who I would be facing next. The whole experience has been a bit surreal, almost unexpected. But I’ve approached all of this with a mindset of just doing the best I can.”

Kim’s schedule isn’t likely to slow down anytime soon. If anything, in fact, the year ahead may be even more challenging—which is the way he likes it.

“I’m very focused academically and next year’s I’ll be busy taking advanced placement exams,” he says. “I’m going to continue to keep doing judo for sure though.”

•Steveston Judo Club teammate Lisa Nakajima also won gold at nationals, topping the senior women’s under-63 kilogram weight class.

Selects best in the province

Allstars cap first metro season with B.C. title

U-18 team will lose only three players to graduation

by Don Fennell Sports Editor Clive Clarke’s wide smile spoke volumes Sunday as the Richmond Allstars put the finishing touches on a 3-0 victory over the Kamloops Blaze in the Provincial A Cup under-13 girls’ soccer final at Langley’s Willoughby Fields.

Aside from seeing the joy on the girls’ faces as they celebrated a B.C. title in their first season playing metro soccer, Clarke’s greatest satisfaction was the enormous strides his players made over the course of the campaign. One example was the poise Chantelle Donaldson showed in setting up a teammate for a goal.

Rather than attempting to dribble the ball around a defender, she held up and made a great pass to set up the tally.

“I said right away, that’s growth,” said

by Don Fennell Sports Editor

Richmond Allstars won gold in their first season playing metro league soccer.

Clarke, who received numerous compliments about his players’ strong ball control and composure.

“Even in different positions they were still moving the ball effectively, using their sense

they’ve developed. It was great to see them be able to work a ball out of a tight corner.”

The Allstars also won the league, Coastal Cup and provincial futsal titles this past season.

The best under-18 boys’ soccer team in the province calls Lulu Island home.

Richmond United, whose greatest strength according to associate coach John Gattens is their commitment to each other, secured the Provincial A championship Sunday in Langley with a 3-2 victory over the Burnaby Royals.

“They were very resilient in the way they never believed they couldn’t win,” Gattens said.

Primarily still eligble to play under-17, Richmond could be building a mini dynasty as the side will lose only three players. One (Wassem Balluch) is going to Langara College and the others will likely play adult soccer next season.

“Last year, we permitted many of the U-16s to play up with the under-18 team

Richmond United U-18s added the Provincial A Cup to the Coastal Cup title (above) they won earlier this season.

which I feel gave them confidence that they could not only play up a year but compete,” said Gattens. “Next year, we will enter two under-18 teams in the Metro Select league, including the current provincial champions and the graduating U-16 team which is also very strong.”

The U-16s missed qualify-

ing for the Coastal Cup by a single goal this season.

“We feel that this will help build the program even more as the U-15s will be U-16s next year, and so goes the progression,” said Gattens, reiterating the contributions of technical director Roberto Sciascia who works with all the players and coaches.

Tohka is a very independent cat but still appreciates a good cuddle when she is ready for it. She would do best in a home with no other pets as she has come back into our care due to her uneasiness around dogs especially. She has been spending a lot of time in the cat communal but would prefer to have your undivided attention. She especially loves playing with her cat charmer toy and could do so for hours on end. She would adore being in a home where she is the queen of the castle and can let loose and be herself at all times. If you feel that she is the cat that you have been looking for, please come visit her at the shelter!

Celebrate Canada Fair at Richmond Public Library

Amanda Oye photos Andrei, Eugenia and Nadya Gladkikh.

Celebrating Canada Weavers and Spinners Guild and the Richmond Potters Club.

There was plenty of Canada-themed activities for kids as well, including arts and crafts, games and face painting.

At the front entrance of the library there were two boards where everyone had the chance to post what they love about Canada.

“The idea is to invite people to write what they love about Canada in one or two words,” said Zhang.

“I really want people to express what they love about this country,” she added.

Among the things that were posted were that Canada is fun, that there is freedom and that it is full of great people.

Zhang personally loves the country’s beauty, its multiculturalism and the fresh air.

Richmond golfer hits two aces in the same round

Women bound, man stabbed, but nobody's talking

Kuni Ikeda pulls off a 1-in-67 million feat

Staff Reporter

by Neil Corbett Black Press Some golfers will go their entire life without ever hitting a hole-in-one. Others have one or two, and they remember those shots like the births of their children.

But two aces in the same round?

That’s a feat estimated at one-in-67 million, that only some 200 golfers have ever accomplished.

Kuni Ikeda pulled it off on Saturday at the Meadow Gardens Golf Club in Pitt Meadows.

The Richmond resident had never hit an ace before, in more than 20 years of golfing. But at the 102-yard, par three fourth hole, she put a good swing on the ball with her pitching wedge.

“It was a nice hit—I was so comfortable,” she said, and she watched as the ball landed about five feet from the hole, and then rolled in. She reacted like a lottery winner.

“We were jumping up and down on the greens.”

The next one came on the par three seventh hole, which is 129 yards. Ikeda hit her number four rescue iron, and looking into the sun lost sight of her ball.

The hole is surrounded by a water hazard, and when the ball wasn't visible, Ikeda

started looking in the water for it, then they looked in the rough. They finally found it in the last place they looked— in the hole.

This time her reaction was more stunned: “Really? Are you kidding,” she laughed.

“It’s unbelievable. Amazing.”

She was the talk of the course all weekend, and into Monday, when a Vancouverbased television news team took her out onto the course to tell her story.

“In the history of golf, this has rarely happened,” said Hanna Brychkouskaya, operations manager at Meadow Gardens. “It’s amazing news.”

There were three witnesses, as part of her foursome in the Ladies Club Summer Open.

Brychkouskaya said the club tradition is that everyone who gets an ace gets their name on a plaque, as well as a keeper trophy. She is not sure how to commemorate Ikeda's feat, except “it has to be something special.”

The 69-year-old, has been a member at Meadow Gardens for going on four years, since retiring from her career with a lumber company, and now plays a round almost every day. She is a 19 handicap golfer.

“I do it for exercise—for my health, and not as much for competition.”

But she has accomplished something that has only been done once in a PGA tour event—by Yusaku Miyazato in 2006.

“I can’t believe it—it’s so shocking.”

by Martin van den Hemel A pair of unrelated violent incidents involving uncooperative victims has Richmond Mounties frustrated.

Late Monday, around 10:48 p.m., Richmond RCMP received a 911 call about a home invasion at an apartment building on Elmbridge Way. But when police arrived, the two victims denied calling the police, and remained uncooperative.

Then, in a bizarre twist, the two alleged victims left the country, leaving investigators with next to nothing to work on, Richmond

Ping Zhu found carrying $57,000 worth of undeclared goods

Kuni Ikeda hit her first ever hole-in-one on Saturday, and then hit another one three holes later.

An eagle-eyed border services officer helped nab a traveller who failed to declare tens of thousands of dollars worth of goods last December after arriving at Vancouver International Airport.

Ping Zhu returned to Canada on Dec. 4, and declared $200 worth of goods at the automated border clearance kiosk.

But at the baggage carrousel, the officer approached her to verify her declaration. That’s when the officer noticed she was wearing a luxury ring that appeared to be new, according to Perry Boldt, assistant director of communications for the Canada Border Services Agency, Pacific Region.

When questioned about a watch

she was wearing, Zhu admitted she imported the watch in March of 2012 but hadn’t declared it.

She also admitted the luxury pendant necklace she was wearing, was being brought into the country for the first time.

The officer then noted that the expensive luxury ring she had been wearing earlier was gone.

When asked about the ring, Zhu pulled it out of her pocket.

All of the undeclared items were seized, valuing a total of $57,070.01.

Last week, Zhu appeared in Richmond provincial court, where she was fined $6,248.62, an amount equal to the duties and taxes she tried to evade.

She will also have to pay a penalty equivalent to between 20 and 80 per cent of the value of the seized goods in order to get them back.

RCMP Sgt. Cam Kowalski said.

On Tuesday morning, police were called to the Holiday Inn on Cambie Road, just west of Shell, where a man suffered two knife wounds to his upper chest around 6:20 a.m.

Kowalski said the injuries were not life-threatening, and the victim was taken hospital.

But investigators are not receiving any cooperation from the victim, or the witnesses to the incident, who themselves may have been involved in the altercation that led to the injury.

“We’ve got a lot of nothing, a victim but no story,” Kowalski said.
