Cellphone technology, footwork solve theft

Seaspan keen to check out ferries’ request

Kyle Wells

Three new vessels to be built, but the question is, where?

News staff

More than $4,000 worth of stolen photography equipment and an iPhone were recovered Tuesday thanks to some oldfashioned detective work and new technology.

While visiting Gonzales Beach, a man had his photo gear and cellphone stolen, along with irreplaceable wedding and engagement photos.

Unbeknownst to the thief, the owner of the equipment had installed the Find my iPhone app on his cellphone. With the help of two constables, the man used the app to determine his phone was somewhere around Douglas and View streets.

The three went to the area, where they found a large group of people watching a street performance as part of the ongoing Busker Festival. The officers went over to the group, waited for a lull in the show and then had the victim activate the app, causing a high-pitched tone to come out of the phone.

A person in the group opened their bag to stop the noise, at which point police swooped in and arrested the individual.

An 18-year-old Saanich youth faces one count of possession of stolen property.

He was released with a promise to appear for a future court date.

“We do get it every once in a while, but it’s not something that happens all the time,” VicPD Const. Mike Russell said of the use of the cellphone app to solve a theft.

“What’s often unique about these cases is the complainant is always along for the ride, because we need them with their technology. … It’s like a ride-along to get back your own stolen property.” reporter@vicnews.com

It’s a summer job for the two working in the Parliamentary Players program, which allows students to gain theatre work experience and four months’ summer employment.

B.C. Ferries has received approval to construct three new medium-sized vessels, and the B.C. government is leaving it up to the corporation to decide where they are built.

“Certainly we’d be very supportive of the ships being built in British Columbia,” Transportation Minister Todd Stone said Tuesday. “Government does not have the purview to dictate to B.C. Ferries who can and cannot participate in their procurement process. That’s internal to B.C. Ferries.”

B.C. Ferry Commissioner Gord Macatee announced approval Tuesday to replace two old ferries scheduled for retirement in 2016.

The 48-year-old Queen of Burnaby serves the Comox-to-Powell River run, and the 49-year-old Queen of Nanaimo sails on the Tsawwassen-Gulf Islands circuit.

B.C. Ferries announced Tuesday it will invite qualified bids for two replacement ships with capacity for up to 145 vehicles and 600 passengers. A third with room for 125 vehicles and 600 passengers will be used for peak-season service on the Gulf Islands run and replacement duty when the other two are undergoing maintenance.

Brian Carter, president of Seaspan Shipyards, which operates Victoria Shipyards in Esquimalt and two facilities in North Vancouver, called the announcement “great news for B.C. Ferries and great news for the overall marine industry in the region.”

Seaspan is currently five months into design work, with construction due to start next spring or summer, on a contract to build vessels for the Royal Canadian Navy and Canadian Coast Guard.

POLICE NEWS IN BRIEF

Guard beaten with own flashlight

A 46-year-old Victoria man was taken into police custody Tuesday, suspected of beating an offduty security guard downtown Monday night.

The guard was waiting at a Douglas Street bus stop near city hall at about 11 p.m., when a man threw something at him and told him to "get lost," according to VicPD spokesman Const. Mike Russell.

The suspect pushed the guard to the ground and hit him in the face. The guard retrieved his flashlight and hit the attacker once in defence, but the man overpowered him, grabbed the flashlight and used it to beat his victim.

Two witnesses came to the aid of the victim and called 911. The guard was taken to hospital with non life-threatening injuries. Armed with a good description of the attacker, police arrested the suspect at 3:30 a.m.

Police cruiser hits vehicle from rear

One man was taken to hospital Tuesday morning after a police cruiser rearended his compact car on Bay Street. Both vehicles were traveling west on Bay Street when the compact car signalled for a left turn onto Cedar Hill Road. It was struck from behind by the police vehicle.

The car driver was taken to hospital for precautions.

His four-year-old passenger was uninjured, as were the officer and a prisoner being transported.

The Independent Investigations Office has been notified as a precaution, Russell said, as has the Office of the Police Complaints Commissioner.

Shooting weapon sought in Esquimalt

VicPD is asking for the public's help finding a 9mm pistol believed to be used in an early morning shooting Monday on Constance Avenue.

Anyone finding the weapon is asked to call VicPD immediately at 250995-7654.

LNG vessels new ground for Seaspan Continued from Page A1 The company will assess its capacity to take on such a B.C. Ferries contract once it determines the specifics of the request, Carter said.

In terms of competing against foreign firms, he said the federal shipbuilding program is giving the company and the B.C. industry in general more competitive capabilities every day.

“True efficiencies [will be] gained once we start constructing vessels.”

Qualified Canadian and international shipyards will be invited to bid, with a contract

to be awarded by January 2014.

B.C. Ferries CEO Mike Corrigan said the focus is on cost savings and standardization of vessels, many of which now have different deck heights and dock requirements.

The last major contract was for three Coastal-class ferries, completed by a German shipyard in 2007 and 2008. They now serve the main Vancouver Island runs.

Corrigan said B.C. Ferries will examine whether new ships can be run on liquefied natural gas instead of diesel. That increases the construction cost, but fuel savings are projected to pay for

themselves in as little as eight years.

While Seaspan has never built an LNG powered vessel, Carter said the manufacture of LNG equipment would likely take place off site.

The Coastal Ferries Act requires the B.C. Ferries Commissioner to approve capital expenditures. The order for these ferries specifies that construction must be open to a pool of bidders, and that food and retail services on board must not be subsidized by fare revenue.

OUR VIEW

Tread carefully with ship contract Various individuals and organizations want the province to force B.C. Ferries management to have three newly announced ships built by a B.C. shipyard.

But it’s not as simple as just mandating it, then standing back and telling the ferry corporation to just “get ’er done.”

Even Brian Carter, Best value vs. the president of Shipyards, local jobs decision Seaspan which owns and must be province’s operates Victoria Shipyards in Esquimalt, acknowledged his company will have to look at what’s being asked for first, before it can determine whether it even has the capacity and infrastructure to commit to such a project.

A perfect scenario for the Capital Region would see the ships built in B.C., constructed on time and on budget, and with much of the work and jobs coming to Victoria Shipyards, the largest of Seaspan’s three facilities in this province.

But as the ferry corporation found when it commissioned its Celebration-class vessels some years back, international companies are well-equipped to handle such orders and will provide stiff competition for B.C. firms that are only in recent years picking up steam again.

We’d love to trumpet the regional economic activity that would be created by the further expansion of shipbuilding capabilities in Esquimalt.

At the same time, all of us as taxpayers will be footing the bill for those ferries, and it behooves the corporation to seek out the best value for money in this transaction.

Determining whether the creation of a significant number of short-term, well-paying jobs is more important than the potential to overspend for this project, if the bidding was not opened up to a worldwide competition, is a job for government, not the B.C. Ferry Corporation.

The Liberals, despite saying they will let B.C. Ferries make the final decision, have to make sure the corporation is absolutely clear on government’s viewpoint on that issue.

there was life on Earth there was no food for animals like us because everything we eat was once alive.

We consume the carcasses of animals and plants and absorb their molecules to form every part of our bodies.

We also anticipated that and brought food. In fact, I expected to stay a while and brought seeds to grow greens. But where could I plant them? There would be dust, sand, clay and gravel, but no soil because it’s formed by the accumulation of molecules from the remains of plants and animals.

Finally, the sun sets and although it’s warm because of greenhouse gases, we decide to build a fire so we can sit around and exchange stories. Where could we find fuel to burn?

Wood, peat, dung, coal, oil and gas all store the sun’s energy as photosynthetic products that we burn to liberate fire. Before life, there was no fuel. Again, in anticipation we brought wood, kindling and paper and set them up for a fire. But fire requires oxygen, so nothing happens when we strike the match.

The point of this exercise is to illustrate that the very foundations of our lives – air, water, photosynthesis, soil and food – are made possible by the web of life that evolved on a once-sterile planet. Living organisms on land and in oceans, including us, create, cleanse and regenerate those vital elements. Who needs nature? We do. Without nature, we would not be here. How do we put an economic value on that? davidsuzuki.org.

This is the mindset that is driving us down the road to spending billions of unnecessary dollars. The poopinto-ocean-equals-bad attitude is a knee-jerk reaction not based on science.

In our location it is much better for our planet and our local environment to send our nutrients into the ocean, rather than creating a land-based source of sludge that we then have to deal with. Maybe a fish farm would buy it?

Ed Christianson Colwood

As for detergents, pharmaceuticals and other chemicals, I agree we should do something about that, but the currently proposed treatment plan won’t do it. I’m not sure the technology exists to do that yet. And road runoff? That is the storm drain system and doesn’t even belong in this discussion.

Please, please, please, can we get a firm scientific backing before we make the decision to spend a bunch of money now, then a bunch more every year to support this wrong-headed plan.

Mr. Nattrass, I challenge you to look more deeply into this issue rather than go along with the knee-jerk reaction and further our journey down a

Sewage treatment issue can be tough to sort out Our sewage treatment issue is a thorny one, no doubt. I have struggled with coming to a definite view. Apparently the same can be said of Mr. Nattrass, who, in last week’s ‘opinion piece’ ventures no detectable opinion.

Readers respond: Smart meters, Canada’s past Saving jobs a benefit of keeping old meters I’m curious to know why the massive laying off of meter readers has not been addressed during the debate over B.C. Hydro smart meters.

I think homeowners and renters who have prevented our analog meters from being replaced should be congratulated, not only for protecting the environment from toxic EMF’s, but for saving jobs in our province.

And for the thousands of British Columbians who had their meters replaced against their wishes and want them reinstalled, again congratulations are in order, for more jobs will be saved there.

Energy Minister Bill Bennett is appreciated for acknowledging the legal, moral and health grounds smart meter opponents stand on. However, to be charged an extra fee to have our meters read amounts to double-dipping, in that this cost has always been factored into our B.C. Hydro bills.

Keep the meter readers and

keep the same rates. We didn’t ask the Liberal government to undertake this costly and wasteful enterprise. Why should we pay for it as well, and again and again?

many generations of recovery.

The public library has a wealth of books and documentaries if you care to open your eyes.

Canada was consulted by South Africa, which wanted a plan to deal with its ‘native problem.’ They modelled their anti-apartheid system on our reservation system. We can close our eyes, look the other way, deny what is going on and blame the victims but nothing will change.

We cannot move into a new future without healing the rift between colonists and First Nations. The standard of living of many aboriginal people in Canada is as bad as any indigenous people in the world.

I take no joy in Canada Day, Thanksgiving, Victoria Day or any celebration where we pat ourselves on the back for what we have done in 100 or 150 years. I am not proud of what we have done, as we have polluted, plundered and left much of a beautiful pristine land poisoned and uninhabitable.

The southern Vancouver Island area is lacking leaders for Sparks, Brownies and Pathfinders, meaning some young girls may not get the opportunity to participate in Girl Guides next year.

Giant perform through the late morning and afternoon. The event has activities for kids, games, vendors and a large silent auction.

Last year the event raised $12,000. Fun Day in the Park runs from 11 a.m. to 4:30 a.m. For information visit fundayinthepark.ca.

Lack of adults threatens Girl Guides Volunteers needed for units around Greater Victoria Kyle Slavin News staff

Girl Guides of Canada is in dire need of adult volunteers in Greater Victoria so girls in Brownies, Sparks, Guides and Pathfinders don’t miss out on recreational opportunities.

Colene Wood, Girl Guides’ public relations advisor for the southern Vancouver Island area, says units need a certain leaderto-girl ratio to operate. With about 1,250 girls interested in participating this fall, more lead-

ers are desperately needed.

“If we got 10 or 15 we would be ecstatic, that would allow us to not close units – but 20 to 25 would be ideal,” Wood said.

While a unit closure usually results in girls being moved to the next nearest group, a lack of skilled adults means fewer opportunities like camps and outdoor trips.

Chloe Faught, a leader for the Girl Guides’ outdoor adventure program Trex, points to camping as an example where skilled leaders with first aid are mandatory for such an excursion to take place.

“We can get innovative – some leaders with certain skills can be on call (to help out another unit), but everything’s

thinner. It makes everything a little bit harder,” she said.

Great benefits are available to adults interested in volunteering, Faught said, from their own personal growth to training for new skills in such areas as finance, anti-bullying, conflict resolution and more. “You can also get reimbursements for third-party training like first aid or FoodSafe,” she said.

“The reward you get out of kids going, ‘Yes, I can do this,’ makes it all worthwhile.”

Adult women interested in volunteering as a Girl Guide leader are encouraged to visit bc-girlguides.org/join-guiding.

Leaders must undergo a criminal record check. kslavin@saanichnews.com

VICTORIA’S ULTIMATE GET OUT GUIDE

LIBRARY

promotes local music

BY MARY ELLEN GREEN arts@mondaymag.com

S

ome might think the library is a thing of the past — but “it’s more than a pile of old dusty books,” says circulation assistant Kaya Fraser.

And Victorians should rejoice, because the Greater Victoria Public Library is an innovative one, with a mandate to find new ways to connect with the community and “inspire the joy of discovery through programs, collections and training opportunities,” according to the organization’s strategic plan.

And the GVPL is doing just that when it launches a new collection dedicated solely to local music, July 29, at the three main district branches — Central, Nellie McClung and Juan de Fuca.

The new collection was the idea of Cheryl Landry, music specialist and public services librarian, who pitched the concept almost three years ago. “It wasn’t until a year ago that the timing, money and logistics came together, so I put in a proposal,” she says.

While there are many local music titles in the current collection, they weren’t easily searchable using the term “local.”

“It’s always been lumped in with the respective genres,” says Landry. “It hasn’t been obvious, so we wanted to expand that, and decided to create a collection where local is the focus.”

To begin, Landry sought out the help of the savvy staff at Ditch Records and CDs. “They gave us some great recommendations and we purchased what we could from them,” says Landry. She then put out a call to the Victoria Conservatory of Music, the department of music at UVic and the larger community using social media. “I didn’t need to go any further,” she says. “I spent the initial budget. We do have a certain amount of the CD budget earmarked to add to the collection each year, but the music has to meet a certain criteria. We had to start somewhere.”

To start things off, GVPL has amassed more than 150 unique titles in the collection, often with multiple copies. The artists need to have a strong connection to Victoria, Vancouver Island or the Gulf Islands and the music had to be of professional quality, and commercially produced within the last five years.

“It’s quite a wide range. We have the typical pop and rock, plus indie, folk, singer-songwriter, jazz, big band, choral. There’s even a violinist who’s been nominated for a Grammy,” says Landry.

Landry herself studied music in university and thought the idea of a local music collection would be a great way to support the local music community while encouraging Victorians to listen to something new.

“I think it’s important to support artists in general. Libraries’ roles are changing. We’re less curators of the past and more supporters of new ideas and creations. We want to create a record of musical life in the area, but also promote the artists and also inspire new collaborations — and hopefully allow the general public than might not frequent coffee houses or local music events to come across new music in a different way.”

To kick off the collection, GVPL is hosting the Local MusicFest from 2-5 p.m., Saturday, July 27 in Centennial Square. The free event features live music by eight artists featured in the local music collection, including Sets in the West, Renata Young, Ethan Caleb, Alan Jossul, Balkan Babes, One Bright Morning, Ocean Noise and Kaya Fraser Band.

Fraser, a roots-rock singer-songwriter, is backed by a three piece band that includes Carl Cavanagh on bass. Cavanagh works alongside Fraser and Landry as a librarian at the GVPL Central branch.

“This is a very clear gesture of support for the local music community,” says Fraser. “It’s a way for people to discover things, because increasingly people want to try before they buy.

Even though they’re not buying a CD when they take it out from the library, they may well go out and buy a CD or go to a show and as a musician the number one thing I want is to get into people’s ears.”

“Some of the music was already in our collection, but it’s not easy to find. There’s no way to search for music that is specifically local and it’s a great idea to use local as a search term and be able to browse a separate collection.

The concert is just the icing on the cake.”

People in attendance will get the first crack at checking out items from the new collection, which will be available in the branches the following Monday. Bring your library card or have one made on the spot. gvpl.ca.

Musical soulmates reunite for summer tour

BY TRAVIS PATERSON sports@vicnews.com

A

s promised, jazz singer Emily Braden has returned from the bustle of New York city, if only for a couple of shows.

Braden reunites with Oliver Swain’s Big Machine tonight (July 26) at Upstairs Cabaret. The band also features fiddler Jaron Freeman-Fox and 17-year-old guitarist Quinn Bachand.

It’s a homecoming for Braden, originally from Idaho, who lived here for seven years while doing her undergraduate and graduate studies in Spanish at the University of Victoria. During that time she came into her own as an artist and since relocated to pursue the jazz dream.

“Living between both cities was getting to be a bit much but it feels like home in Victoria.

It’s where I became myself as an artist.

“Victoria is such a place for recharging, I’m looking forward to seeing all the friends here and touring some festivals. I love Canada and am looking forward to seeing different places there,” she said.

Singing provides the bulk of Braden’s New York income but she also works with the Washington Heights CORNER Project, (cornerproject.org/connect-2/meet-our-par-

ticipants), a harm reduction initiative on the streets of New York City. Speaking Spanish is part of the gig and is paramount to her effectiveness, given the large Spanish-speaking population.

“Music in New York is all about the hustle but it’s also such a tough thing in NYC so I’m lucky I’m so passionate about the CORNER Project,” she said.

The 2012 New York City Best of the Best jazz vocalist winner was on Oliver Swain’s 2010 album In a Big Machine, so expect a lot of material from that, she said.

It’s going to be a work in progress as she only arrived a week ago.

Braden’s jazz vocals will be reintegrated as a backup singer to Swain, adding a gospel element to the songs. “(Swain) and I are musical soulmates. I’m more of a jazz head and he’s into more of a roots and bluegrass scene, but he helped me write my first tune in his atrium. We both like to make music and branch out, it’s going to be fun to figure out how to sing with him (again).”

The group kicked off its upcoming tour in Duncan on Thursday and will hit cities throughout B.C. and Alberta well into August.

Braden will return for The Victoria Django Festival on Aug. 9.

The Little Prince monday’s movies

J

ust as one’s DNA can reveal family traits, astrology does likewise.

An astrological peek reveals the new prince George is a Cancer with Mercury, Mars and Jupiter in Cancer.

If this baby had been born 36 minutes later, he would be a Leo - the sign of royalty.

But he has plenty of royal company in GeorGia Cancer.

NicoLs The baby’s father, Prince William, has Sun and Moon in Cancer; his mother Kate has her Moon in Cancer, and his grandmother Princess Diana was a Cancer. Cancer signs are nurturing.

Meanwhile, Kate is a Capricorn and the baby has Moon in Capricorn. And his great grandmother Queen Elizabeth is Capricorn Rising. Lots of similarities.

Capricorn is a perfectionist sign that rules the government.

Because of his birth so close to Leo, he shares qualities of both Leo and Cancer. And indeed, Queen Elizabeth has Moon in Leo, and Prince Charles is Leo Rising. In turn, Charles is a Scorpio and the baby is Scorpio Rising. These two - the new prince and his grandfather will click amazingly. Watch for future photos.

There is also a strong Sagittarius influence coming from his grandmother Diana, who was Sagittarius Rising. This gives him a freedom-seeking quality that adores travel and will love to be outside enjoying sports and physical activities.

First and foremost, he will strive to become a better person in this lifetime. He’ll be attracted to self-help books, courses and activities for self-improvement. He will seek principles to govern his life so he can feel confident that by adhering to these principles, he can live fearlessly.

He will also love to travel. But he will not seek out the popularity of his uncle Harry. He will have fewer friends, but steadfast, lifelong buddies. He is strong, wilful, and yet, an imaginative dreamer who thinks in pictures.

There is much passion in his chart. (Oh yes, we have a little stud muffin in the making.) He’ll have heightened sexual energy, a debonair demeanour plus a love of mystery and intrigue. He will be secretive. In fact, his chart shows he will fall heir to secret information.

One royal tradition that will happily be carried on - from generations before him - is his love of animals and outdoor sports.

This young prince is indeed a delightful addition to the royal family.

Bang Bang, You’re Dead

R

ED is a fictitious (one hopes) CIA acronym for “retired, extremely dangerous” and was first used as the title of a droll and violent black comedy three years ago, wherein two retired CIA buddies were the subjects of a mysterious CIA assassination plot. Happily, Frank (Bruce Willis) and Marvin (John Malkovich) were able to show the youngsters a thing or three about lethal “wetwork,” and went on to not only save themselves but also save the day as they short-circuited a dire conspiracy.

The movie was a hit and Frank and Marvin are back in RED 2, and reunited with MI6 counterpart Victoria (Helen Mirren, who claims she based her purse-lipped and murderous character on Martha Stewart) and Frank’s girlfriend, Sarah (Mary-Louise Parker), who is eager to join in on all the action even though Frank just wants to play house with his civilian cutie. Adding to the fun, Anthony Hopkins, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and David Thewlis are scenery-chewing ride-alongs.

Once again, these crusty, squabbling characters find themselves evading a large contingent of agents trying to blow them up or mow them down. It’s all part of a baroque, globetrotting plot that centres on a Cold War-era nuclear bomb that has been hiding somewhere in Moscow for 30 years and is now coveted by various factions. The storyline is both generic and messy, and much of the violence seems unnecessary.

In truth this would just be a cable flick were it not for all the great performers, whose alchemical wit and panache elevate brutal banality into passable entertainment.

Rating: ★★½ RED 2 continues at the Empire 6, SilverCity, Empire Uni 4, and Westshore.

True believers

W

ith our very own terrorist bomb scare so recently in the news, it’s useful to remember that extremist anti-war groups in the 1970s such as The Weather Underground brought a shocking level of homegrown violence to American soil.

That murderous legacy is examined in The Company You Keep, a thoughtful drama directed by and starring Robert Redford. Jim Grant (Redford) is a decent lawyer and family man who’s been a pillar of his community for 30 years. But the unexpected arrest of terrorist fugitive Sharon Solarz (Susan Sarandon), wanted for the long-ago murder of a bank guard, sends a keen young reporter named Ben Shepard (Shia LaBeouf) sniffing around Grant. And Grant, whose real name is Nick Sloan, is wanted on that same warrant. So he goes on the lam in the middle of the night, just steps ahead of a pugnacious FBI agent (Terrence Howard) determined to take him down.

What follows is a low-key thriller as much as a drama, one that examines the morality of violent protest as well as the scars borne by idealists who convinced themselves that the use of lethal force was appropriate when their country was engaged in an unjust war (and was beating and even killing its own student protestors). As Grant/Sloan furtively reconnects with several Weather alumni in search of an ex-lover of the time (Julie Christie) who may hold the key to his dilemma, he is pursued by Shepard as well as the FBI. And the film suggests that both an FBI agent ruthlessly wielding state power and an ambitious reporter with no regard for the collateral damage his front-page stories inflict on the innocent, are carrying their own payload of moral taint.

A decent albeit occasionally talky film, Company should get an award for its amazing cast, which includes Nick Nolte, Chris Cooper, Stanley Tucci, and Brendan Gleeson. Although it lacks the savvy political edge of All The President’s Men, this is part of cinema’s vanishing breed: a film for adults.

Rating: ★★★ The Company You Keep plays July 26-27 at UVic’s Cinecenta.

United tackled out of playoffs

Mark Brett/Black Press

Victoria United reserves defender Ivica Bratanovic, right, kicks the feet out from under James Fraser of Penticton Pinnacles during the second half of the Pacific Coast Soccer League U-21 men’s reserve match Sunday in Penticton.

Bratanovic was red carded, part of a frustrated United squad that lost 8-0 to the Pinnacles.

IN BRIEF Adanacs lead 2-0 over Shamrocks The Victoria Jr. Shamrocks have no room for error as they attempt to solve the Coquitlam Jr. Adanacs in Game 3 of the B.C. Junior Lacrosse League semifinal series, Saturday in Coquitlam.

A win brings the series back to Bear Mountain Arena on Sunday at 5 p.m.

The Adanacs won 13-8 in Coquitlam on Saturday and 13-6 on Sunday at Bear Mountain Arena.

Teddy Jenner knew he needed to make a better impression to get onto Sportsnet Drafted.

After four years of failed attempts, Jenner has cracked the reality show’s final 24 and will attend a four day bootcamp in Toronto beginning Aug. 11.

Audtitions took place in Vancouver during a weekend in May, and Jenner was in the area with the Juan de Fuca pee wee A2 boys lacrosse team, which he coached.

Auditions took place on a Saturday, but Jenner’s first audition didn’t sit well, so he went back on Sunday.

“They were surprised, but I didn’t need any prep time. I talked about what the Canucks need to do to succeed, which is not my team. I had to show them I’m more than just a one-trick pony.”

His trick, if you can

Victoria United U-21 men’s squad ended its season with a disappointing 8-0 drubbing by the Penticton Pinnacles on Sunday.

Both of United’s premier and U-21 squads finished outside of the playoffs in the Pacific Coast Soccer League reserves division.

“It’s a bit of a disappointment not playing at RAP for the first time in 20 years but we had both teams practising on the field at the same time at Braefoot Park and had a great transition year there,” said Bill Anderson of United’s board of directors.

United carried around 45 players on its two teams this year despite being bumped from RAP by baseball’s Victoria HarbourCats and the PDL Victoria Highlanders.

The Highlanders men are off to California for the PDL Western Conference Championship semifinals against the Ventura County Fusion.

Meanwhile the powerhouse Peninsula Co-op Highlanders women’s team has drawn the Kamloops Heat for Saturday. It’s the first match in the Pacific Coast Soccer League’s Dave Fryatt Challenge Cup playoffs in Coquitlam. A win puts the Co-op Highlanders into Sunday’s final. sports@vicnews.com

CFAX reporter and WLA play-by-play announcer Teddy Jenner is hoping to win Drafted and earn a year-long contract with Sportsnet. call it that, is lacrosse.

But anyone who knows the former Victoria Shamrocks player (and Mann Cup winner) knows he is passionate about sports, and isn’t confined to box lacrosse. It just so happens, however, that he’s become the Bob McKenzie of box lacrosse in Canada. He hosts a weekly radio show Off the Crosse Bar, which features the games’ top athletes, coaches and general

managers.

The lacrosse community isn’t big, but it’s tight, and he’s constantly under the microscope. Now he’s out to prove that he can handle the same pressure as a Sportsnet sportscaster.

When he got the call in June it came from last year’s winner, Matt Drapel, and it didn’t come easy.

“He called me ‘fivetime Teddy,’ and actually had me convinced

I wasn’t on the show, but was just toying with me because I want it so bad.”

Jenner is second in online voting, which would give him immunity into the final six.

For a month he’ll live in Toronto and compete against 24 other contestants including Victoria’s Justin Kelly, who was featured in the News recently.

Visit Teddy Jenner’s Drafted Facebook site to vote for him.

Nominations sought for Women in Business awards Greater Victoria women entrepreneurs in the spotlight at Black Press gala Jennifer Blyth Special to the News

Greater Victoria is fortunate to count many remarkable women entrepreneurs among its business ranks and as Black Press prepares to celebrate its annual Women in Business Awards, we want to hear about them.

The awards are presented each fall at the Women in Business Gala, an opportunity to celebrate, learn and share the successes of local women in the workplace.

“There are so many bright, hardworking, innovative women in Greater Victoria and these awards are just one way we can honour their initiative,” said Black Press group publisher Penny Sakamoto.

Categories include the prestigious Business Owner of the Year, Eco-entrepreneur, Rising Star and Above and Beyond. In addition to specific category criteria, nominees must be female residents of Greater Victoria. Readers are welcome to nominate more than one individual and can even nominate themselves.

Nominations must also include at least one letter of support for the nominee.

Past winners have included Women Business Owners of the Year, Shawna Walker

from the Oak Bay Beach Hotel and L.A. Limousines’ Kyara Kahakauwila; plus Ecoentrepreneurs Carolyn Barter, from Baja Rosi’s Consignment Cabana, and Knotty By Nature’s Stephanie Papik.

Rising Star winners have included Johanne Paquette, from Speakwell speaker’s bureau, while past Above & Beyond winners range from Accent Inns’ Mandy Farmer to lawyer Jacqueline Horton with Genesis Law Group.

Nominees for the 2013 Black Press Women Business Owner of the year must own at least 51 per cent of a small or large business (including home-based or franchise) that has been in operation at least three years.

This year’s Eco-entrepreneur nominees must run, and be the creator of, a small or large business, including home-based or franchise, with an environmental/green focus.

Nominees’ business practices must demonstrate knowledge of and adherence to eco-friendly principles.

Recognizing that a successful business also relies on the significant contributions of dedicated employees, Black Press also awards two employee honours.

The Above and Beyond category is open

to female employees of any business in Greater Victoria who demonstrate dedication that goes beyond their job description.

The successful nominee will be a veteran of her industry who continues to make her mark in both her career and community.

The Rising Star award is presented to a woman who may be new to her industry, but is making her mark as an employee of any business in Greater Victoria. Nominees will demonstrate creativity, enthusiasm and a strong work ethic, along with contributions to her community.

“We are pleased to honour women just starting out in business and those who have paved the way for others by giving back to our community for years,” Sakamoto said.

Nominations may be submitted by email to promo@vicnews.com or dropped off downtown at 818 Broughton St. or in the West Shore at 777 Goldstream Ave. The deadline for nominations is noon on Friday, Aug. 2.

All complete nominations will be reviewed and finalists will be contacted directly. Look for award winners in the Women in Business special section published this October. editor@vicnews.com

Students dive into high tech to solve problems Kyle Slavin News staff

Camosun College students Edward Pang, left, and Chris Rail show off their smartphone application that remotely controls indoor environment settings.

Edward Pang and Chris Rail haven’t even graduated from Camosun College yet, but the pair has already created a smartphone application that may help business owners save money.

A working prototype of the Building Occupant Comfort app is their final project as part of the school’s two-year computer systems technology program.

The Android app allows users to remotely monitor and control indoor environment settings like lights, room temperature and building occupancy.

“There’s a lot of features implemented in our app. From your phone you can look at the occupancy: ‘Oh, no one’s in that room?

I better turn the lights off or turn the temperature down,’” Rail said.

The students were paired with Reliable

out of our program, so they can go into a specialty or into something they enjoy,” Schaerer said. “Industry likes the fact that we create these generalists, that they have these multiple areas. They’re not just web programmers, they’re not just Java developers – they can go almost anywhere with minimal training and plough forward because they’ve already had an introduction to it.”

While the students say the program was intensive and challenging, they say it was invaluable in getting the necessary skills and experience to work in the industry.

“It’s definitely prepared me for a career in the technology field on different levels – like being able to do presentations, speak with clients and gather requirements and solve any problems, if necessary, and also have the technical coder skills to be able to deliver solutions for clients,” Rail said. kslavin@saanichnews.com

Controls, a Victoria-based company that develops technologically advanced building controls like HVAC systems for large office and commercial buildings.

While Reliable Controls already has software that allows users to monitor their systems from a desktop computer, they used Pang and Rail’s newly acquired expertise to put those abilities in the palm of your hand.

“It’s quite a complex application. There’s a lot of background activities that occur to ensure that the app is constantly updated live, on the fly, so you’re essentially getting real-time reports on the status of your indoor environment,” Rail said.

Saryta Schaerer, chair of Camosun’s computer science department, says she’s always impressed by the final projects the students create.

“We pride ourselves in our students having a breadth of knowledge coming

The Agrodome at Vancouver’s Pacific International Exhibition was the location recently for the first classic car auction held at the PNE in nearly 20 years.

ALYN EDWARDS A total of 116 CLASSIC high-quality special RIDES interest and collector vehicles crossed the auction block in front of more than 1,000 spectators, many of them holding bidder cards.

A wide variety of special interest and vintage cars and trucks powered their way onto the brightly lit stage as celebrity commentator Steve Magnante delivered knowledgeable and colourful descriptions and veteran car auctioneer Greg Rollo called out the numbers.

The top sale of the two-day event was a much-acclaimed 1969 Dodge 500 with a 425 horsepower, 426 cubic inch hemi engine coupled to a four-speed transmission. The winning bid of $100,000 was registered by Aldergrove car collector Ron Rosevear who took home a trophy car.

A beautifully restored 1965 AMC Rambler 770 convertible sold at the Vancouver Collector Car Auction for a bargain price of $7,000 plus six per cent buyer premium.

This ultra-rare muscle car was wellbought and the buyer reported receiving several higher offers to buy the car before he left the auction.

Surprisingly, the lowest price paid for a classic vehicle was $1,700 for multiaward-winning singer k.d. lang’s 1964 Mercury Meteor, with an electricallyopening breezeway rear window. The

much publicized Canadian-only Meteor sedan carried the singer to her early performances in Western Canada, beginning 30 years ago. The car had been stored for 15 years and was still in lang’s name when sold.

A beautifully restored 1954 Corvette was purchased for $67,500 plus six per Continued on Pg. B2

Friday, July 26, 2013 - BLACK

This rare 1954 Chevrolet Corvette sold at the Vancouver Collector Car Auction for $67,500 plus the six per cent buyer premium.

Car show & auction continued from B1

cent commission paid by the buyer.

The auction, run by Vancouver– based Maynard’s Auctions, sold a total of $1.26 million in special-interest vehicles with approximately $600,000 in sales each day. Running a respectable 51 per cent sell-through rate, the results were higher than previous auctions held in the area.

The auction was the main event at the weekend car show featuring hundreds of customized and restored vehicles representing every era. The father-and-son team of Phil and Jason Heard spent nearly a year bringing together the show, which attracted thousands of people to the PNE grounds.

Among other vehicles well-bought at the auction was a 1965 Corvette coupe at $39,000, a 1969 Corvette roadster with a 427 cubic inch engine and four-speed transmission for $27,000, along with a black 1972 Monte Carlo and a custom 1970 Buick Riviera, each selling for $12,000.

Auctioneer Greg Rollo hammered down sales for a 1967 Shelby clone at $67,000, a 1957 Chevrolet BelAir custom at $50,000, a 1932 ‘Hi Boy ‘ hot rod at $50,000 and a 1966 Chevelle Custom at $28,000.

A gorgeous red 1965 AMC Rambler 770 convertible was

a bargain at $7,750 and a very rare 1957 Studebaker custom pick-up powered by a V8 engine was well-bought at $16,000.

A restored blue and white 1957 Chevrolet BelAir sedan with a V8 engine went to a lucky new owner for the bargain price of $10,000.

On the ultra-rare collector car slate was a 1966 Oldsmobile 442 – the first one built with the W30 option – and a 1972 Hurst Olds 442 convertible Indianapolis Pace Car entered by North Vancouver collector Paul Martin. Both perfectly restored cars drew strong interest but no buyers.

A red and white 1956 Ford Thunderbird with a removable porthole top sold to a sharp buyer for $26,000.

“This first event has shown us that there is a desire for a quality classic car auction and show here at the PNE in Vancouver. We are pleased, but know we have lots to improve upon,” says show co-organizer Jason Heard. “We will be listening to suggestions that will make it an even better collector car weekend next year.”

PRESS GREATER VICTORIA

Among the many B.C.-based car clubs that displayed vehicles were the British Columbia Hot Rod Association, the Specialty Vehicle Association of BC, the Vintage Car Club of Canada – Vancouver Chapter, the Early Ford V8 Club and the BC Chevelle Club.

Paul Martin’s beautifully restored 1972 Hurst Oldsmobile 442 Indianapolis Pace Car was a top flight entry that didn’t make the auction reserve price.

BLACK PRESS GREATER VICTORIA- Friday, July 26, 2013

Jaguars on the Island 2013 More than 100 classic to modern Jaguars will be display at Windsor Park in Oak Bay this Saturday as the Jaguar Car Club of Victoria hosts the annual Jaguars on the Island Concours d’Elegance Car Show.

The largest club-sanctioned Jaguar car show in North America, Jaguars on the Island welcomes visitors from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The public is welcome to attend at no charge to view the cars and visit with the owners who enjoy speaking to enthusiasts of all ages.

Jaguar aficionados from B.C., Alberta, Washington, Oregon and California have registered, with some participating in additional weekend events, including social activities, a Jaguar ‘Prowl’ tour through Greater Victoria and an

autocross slalom. One enthusiastic Jaguar owner is even driving from Southern California by the Mexican border to Victoria in his classic Jaguar XJS. Some spots remain available for local Jaguar owners to display their Jaguar at Windsor Park in the non-judged Enthusiast class for an entry fee of $25. While advance registration is encouraged, Jaguar owners can register their Jaguars on the Saturday morning at Windsor Park by 9 a.m., organizers say.

Cars on display will range from vintage XK150 models from the 1950s to the celebrated and legendary E-Type first introduced in 1961. XJS coupes and convertibles produced from 1975 to 1996 will be on-hand, plus examples of the XK8 which was

Victoria Jaguar Car Club member Julie Bailey has spent weeks detailing and polishing her 1969 Jaguar E-Type coupe in preparation for this Saturday’s show and Concours d’Elegance.

The judging program aims to encourage Jaguars owners to preserve, maintain and present their cars in as clean and authentic condition as possible.

introduced in 1996, followed by the brand new 2014 F-Type. The sedans (saloons in UK parlance) range from the Mark VII first introduced in 1950 to the 1960s’ Jaguar 340, the XJ6 and more modern models.

The Central Saanich Lions will have

their food concession on-site raising funds for Lions’ charities, including Camp Shawnigan for Kids. The Jaguar Car Club of Victoria is also a proud supporter of Victoria Hospice.

Crash test dummies at work: Videos take viewers behind the scenes Metroland Media Carguide Magazine

New web videos from the U.S. Insurance Institute for Highway Safety offer an insider’s look at the Institute’s crash test facility in Ruckersville, Va. In “Inside IIHS,” engineers at the IIHS Vehicle Research Center explain crash test programs and highlight some of the equipment they use in their research.

The videos include “Crash test dummies at work,” “Frontal offset testing,” “Measuring roof strength,” “The crash propulsion system,” “Rating children’s booster seats” and “Side testing.”

In the latest video, engineers put truck underride guards to the test.

Underride guards are steel bars that hang from the backs of semitrailers to keep smaller vehicles from sliding underneath in a crash. When they don’t

work, the consequences can be deadly.

“Inside IIHS: Understanding underride” explains that IIHS embarked on this program after researchers found that underride crashes continued to kill people in passenger vehicles despite big improvements in crash protection.

That’s because a passenger vehicle’s structure and airbags can’t do their job when underride occurs. The video shows how the tests were conducted and explains the results, which

demonstrated that most trailers still need better guards.

The eight videos in the “Inside IIHS” series are available on the IIHS YouTube channel.

The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety is an independent, nonprofit scientific and educational organization dedicated to reducing the losses — deaths, injuries and property damage — from crashes on the United States’ roads.

Chevrolet’s globally recognized bowtie celebrates its 100th anniversary this year with 25 product launches helping the symbol find new roads around the world despite an origin that is still a bit of a mystery.

In 1913, Chevrolet co-founder William C. Durant introduced the signature Chevy bowtie on the 1914 Chevrolet H-2 Royal Mail and the H-4 Baby Grand, centered at the front of both models.

The bowtie has adorned 215 million Chevrolets over the last century, 60 million of which are still on the road.

A Chevrolet car, crossover or truck is sold every 6.39 seconds in one of 140 countries, and the brand set a sales record of 2.5 million in the first six months of the year. The bowtie’s centennial is marked by new entries, such as the Cruze Clean Turbo Diesel compact sedan in the U.S. and the Trax small SUV in 40 international markets.

While the bowtie has been present for 100 years, the details surrounding its origin are still uncertain.

Stories range from Durant being inspired by the wallpaper design in a Parisian hotel to a newspaper advertisement he saw while vacationing in Hot Springs, Va. Durant’s widow and daughter each have an alternative explanation.

According to Margery Durant, in her 1929 book My Father, Durant sometimes doodled nameplate designs on pieces of paper at the dinner table.

“I think it was between the soup and the fried chicken

one night that he sketched out the design that is used on the Chevrolet car to this day,” she wrote.

But in a 1968 interview, Durant’s widow, Catherine, said the bowtie design originated from a Hot Springs vacation in 1912.

While reading a newspaper in their hotel room, Durant spotted a design and exclaimed, “I think this would be a very good emblem for the Chevrolet.”

Unfortunately, Mrs. Durant never clarified what the motif was or how it was used.

But that nugget of information inspired Ken Kaufmann, historian and editor of The Chevrolet Review, to search out its validity.

In a Nov. 12, 1911 edition of The Constitution newspaper, published in Atlanta, an advertisement appeared from by the Southern Compressed Coal Company for “Coalettes,” a refined fuel product for fires.

The Coalettes logo, as published in the ad, had a slanted bowtie form, very similar to the shape that would soon become the Chevrolet icon.

Did Durant and his wife see the same ad – or one similar – the following year a few states to the north? The date of the paper Kaufmann found was just nine days after the incorporation of the Chevrolet Motor Co. The first use of the bowtie by Chevrolet appeared in the Oct. 2, 1913 edition of The Washington Post with the words “Look for this nameplate” above the symbol.

Founded in 1911 in Detroit, Chevrolet is the world’s fourth largest car brand with annual sales of almost five million cars and trucks in more than 140 countries.

Ford is improving on-road hybrid fuel economy and hiring for future Metroland Media Carguide Magazine

As Ford’s share of electrified vehicle market has quadrupled in the past year, the company is announcing improvements to the on-road fuel economy performance of its hybrid vehicles, hiring new engineers, and expanding its research facilities for expected continued growth.

This year, Ford’s share of the U.S. electrified vehicle market is up 12 share points to nearly 16 per cent, while Toyota’s share is down eight share points, and more

customers are trading in their Priuses for the new Ford C-MAX Hybrid.

Ford reported electrified vehicle sales of 46,197 units through June – more than 400 per cent higher than the same period a year ago. Ford C-MAX Hybrid and Ford C-MAX Energi plugin hybrid are helping drive this growth.

Lincoln MKZ also is bringing new customers into the showroom. Strong demand has led Lincoln to increase the production mix of MKZ Hybrid to 40 per cent of MKZ production, up from 20 per cent.

This year, Ford also will expand its electrification engineering team by nearly 50 per cent, growing to 500 salaried employees.

Further, the company is investing an additional (US) $50 million in electrified product development and testing centres in Dearborn.

Ford will double electrification battery-testing capabilities by the end of the year – to a total of 160 individual battery-test cells – helping to speed hybrid and electric vehicle development by as much as 25 per cent.

Ford says sales of its electric vehicles like the C-MAX Hybrid are growing rapidly, especially in coastal areas of the U.S.

Datsun is back with all-new Datsun Go for India Metroland Media Carguide Magazine

Nissan has announced it will sell the Datsun GO in India starting in 2014 as a five-seat sedan. The car was inspired by the DAT-GO, the first Nissan car built almost 100 years ago.

Datsun recently unveiled the first new Datsun car for the 21st century. The all-new Datsun GO will be on sale in India in early 2014.

The Datsun GO is the realization of the commitment made by Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. in March 2012 to return the Datsun brand to the marketplace.

Datsun is the third brand for the Nissan Motor Company along with the company’s Nissan and Infiniti brands.

Datsun will play an important role in the Nissan Power 88 mid-term business plan.

The five-door, front-wheel drive hatchback will come with a 1.2-litre engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission that offers optimal response time and agility in congested traffic.

With comparatively compact body dimensions (width – 1635 mm; height – 1485 mm; length – 3785 mm), the car is spacious inside thanks to a wide stance and large wheelbase (2450 mm), and offers ample headroom and an expanded front seating configuration. It will be a reliable partner for families, providing comfort to five occupants and agility in congested traffic.

For those customers never wanting

to part with their favourite music and pictures, Datsun GO will offer a very practical solution – Mobile Docking Station to connect with their smartphones.

Datsun GO is expected to be “a category up” in its price range, attractively priced below INR 400,000.

The name of the new car is inspired by the first Datsun, the DAT-GO, launched almost a century ago in Japan.

Back then the cars brought mobility to people who had never dreamed of car ownership before. The reignited Datsun brand and the Datsun GO will bring a similar combination of aspiration and trustworthiness.
