Intracorp artist’s rendering Intracorp is seeking to give the city cash instead of building 29 affordable rental apartments in its River Park Place development.

Big bugs descend on Aberdeen Centre Mega-sized exhibit begins July 1, features six humongous insects

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter The Walt Disney flick Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, might come to mind when shoppers enter the atrium at Aberdeen Centre, which is now crawling with gigantic, marauding insects that wouldn’t have been out of place in the Steveston-filmed Godzilla movie.

Giant Bugs Take Over Aberdeen Cen-

tre is a fantastical new exhibit that starts July 1, featuring six humongous insects brought to life via animatronics.

There’s a 16-foot-long locust that rears up and spreads its 21-foot-wide wings, as though it were about to leap over the mega-sized grass blades and into the air.

A Chinese praying mantis serves as an imposing greeter to the exhibit, stretching more than 21 feet and facing the mall’s front entrance.

There’s a pair of 20-foot black horned fighting beetles, a stick insect, and a caterpillar, too.

All this, along with an interactive bugs' heads' display, comes courtesy Kokoro Exhibits, based in Woodland Hills, Calif.

Councillors mull third proposal to scrap affordable housing in a new development Staff Reporter

Shane Dzicek said it will take him and his team about three days to set up the display. The six giant insects were created after consultation with biologists to ensure the proportions and colours of the creatures was correctly replicated, he said.

The insects are made of foam and silicone, with aluminum subframes, he said.

Customers are also dared to chomp down on some genuine bug food, which Aberdeen Centre’s Joey Kwan has herself tried, and she survived the experience.

She hopes the exhibit meets the mall’s goal of being fun, interactive and educational for everyone.

The exhibit runs through Sept. 1.

A developer’s request to forgo the addition of affordable rental apartments in its luxury Oval Village project is giving pause to elected officials.

After granting permission to two developers last year, councillors are giving greater thought to the latest request to provide cash in lieu of affordable housing, referring the matter back to staff at a planning committee meeting Tuesday.

Intracorp had planned to construct a standalone building with 29 low-end market rental housing units as part of River Park Place, a multi-tower development of 586 homes billed as “the new luxury,” and located near the Richmond Olympic Oval.

It’s seeking council’s permission to pay $4.6 million into the city’s affordable housing fund instead of building the rental units. The figure is based on the five per cent affordable housing required in exchange for a density bonus.

Matthew Hoekstra photo The soon-to-be demolished Minoru Sports Pavilion.

Richmond remembers Minoru icon Park facility opened 50 years ago with a ball attended by ‘beautifully gowned women’

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter It cost just $115,900 to build, and it was booked solid for six months before opening day in 1964.

Fifty years ago Minoru Park Sports Pavilion opened with a ball packed with pomp and circumstance. Now the venerable rectangular building is set to welcome the community for one last dance—if only in spirit.

It was May 16, 1964 when the pavilion opened its doors for the first time. The Richmond Day Ball was a show of local celebrity, attracting the who’s who of a community

Mayor Henry Anderson presented the couple with a framed photo contrasting the early days of Richmond with a scene from 1964.

whose population was just a quarter of what it is today. Among the honoured guests was Arthur Laing, Canada’s minister of northern affairs and former Richmond school board chair.

The event also marked the debut of the Richmond Highland Association, whose members played numbers from the pavilion’s balcony during dinner.

“On this historic occasion it’s a beautiful sight to look out upon all these beautifully gowned women,” said Henry Anderson, Richmond’s mayor at the time, according to a story in the May 20, 1964 Richmond Review.

A few days later, at the popular Richmond Days parade, Anderson formally cut the ribbon around a building that would become an important part of Richmond’s sports scene, and social and cultural life. The building played a key role in major sporting events, from the 1979 BC Summer Games to the 2010 Olympic Winter Games.

Upstairs, the banquet room has hosted countless dances, fundraisers, wedding receptions, fitness classes and community forums.

This summer, between July 15 and Aug. 15, the pavilion will be demolished to make way for a new $80-million building that will house a new pool and seniors centre.

Richmond Museum staff will salvage a few pieces from the pavilion before it’s completely flattened—a light fixture, part of the original parquet flooring, a portion of its concrete block walls, a section of its mesh windows.

Museum curator Rebecca Forrest said the building became a need in the ‘60s as Richmond’s population surged and residents transitioned from farm life to a suburban lifestyle. With that came a growing demand for sports facilities.

“With tennis courts and track

and field, there was a thought that we need to provide washrooms, change rooms, functional space for the community,” she said.

What architect Frank Tofin designed was a modernist, functional building that had an unusual style, with contemporary block walls and rooflines that showed Japanese flair. The lower floor boasted change rooms, washrooms and an office, while the entire upper floor was dedicated to the banquet hall, complete with stage and kitchen.

“Many people remember going to weddings in here. There were dances. A few people I’ve talked to said: I was in a band who per-

formed here,” said Forrest.

Richmond Coun. Bill McNulty remembers being among the first runners to use the pavilion’s change rooms during a 1964 provincial track meet for a junior Olympic track program.

“I walked across the swamp where the artificial turfs are,” he said. “We were bussed in from all over British Columbia. I slept on the hard floor of Richmond High with a sleeping bag.”

McNulty said it’s a shame to see the building torn down.

“It has really served (Richmond) well. If I had my way, I would not demolish it. I would keep it and put

Animals Crossing the Road THE ROAD RULES www.roadrules.ca

Cedric Hughes

A

Barrister & Solicitor

nimals on roadways are in danger and dangerous to other road users. Google “Warning, Animals on the Road” for YouTube examples from around the globe.

Whether in a city crosswalk or on a shoulder of a rural highway, the element of surprise and unpredictability is ever present.

Rural drivers tend to be more aware of the possibility of the presence of animals but are no less at risk. In rural areas, wild animals —deer, moose, and bears—are big, fast and skittish.

Farm animals—horses and cows—can behave similarly.

Cities are full of domesticated ‘pets’ but pets on the loose are these days a relative rarity. In BC’s lower mainland, we know that raccoons, squirrels, possum, skunks, coyotes, and geese are all around but tend to discount the risk they can present. So we are not always ‘on guard’ nor generally well prepared or skillful when confronted with them.

Throughout North America, rural highways through unfenced fields or forested areas usually have, somewhere along the road, yellow warning signs with silhouettes of the animals that may be encountered. It is easy to overlook or discount this signage, but drivers do so at their peril.

Especially when daylight is minimal—from dusk through the night until the dawn. Likewise, city streets through unfenced parklands and empty fields or less densely populated suburban areas with unfenced lawns and boulevards are prime animal crossing zones. It is easy to forget about this possibility.

The combination of staying alert, looking ahead, remembering this unusual but nevertheless ever-present potential hazard, using your daytime running lights and nighttime headlights properly, and driving within the designated speed limit at a speed suitable for the road and weather conditions is the best way to avoid risk or at least minimize it when the situation presents itself.

When an animal darts out completely unexpectedly, however, —the YouTube video collection noted above has many such frightening examples—your instinctive reaction will be to swerve or to brake suddenly then swerve. Swerving can lead to losing control of the vehicle endangering the driver and passengers and other vehicles and road users.

Braking suddenly can lead to a rear end collision with a following vehicle, and sometimes a chain of rear end collisions.

Not swerving or braking suddenly may cause you to injure or maim the animal.

Crashing into a big animal is no different than crashing into any other large stationary object—potentially horrific consequences all around. Cases such as these are typically unavoidable, unintentional road accidents. The crashworthiness of your vehicle, your seatbelt and air bag system, the power of your brakes and of any advance auto-braking systems—all of these vehicle safety features will be put to the test.

Stopping to watch or help protect the animal is also risky. Last week’s Road Rules reported on the ongoing criminal trial of Ms. C in Montreal for her alleged criminal negligence causing death and dangerous driving by stopping in the passing lane of a highway for baby ducks to cross. Ms. C’s lawyer argued this week that her decision to stop was spur of the moment and not a criminal act, there being “no bad intention anywhere on the accused’s part.” …by Cedric Hughes, Barrister & Solicitor with regular weekly contributions from Leslie McGuffin, LL.B.

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter A long vacant big box store near Bridgeport Road has become a hive of activity. Inside, workers are preparing for the opening of the first new major grocery store in years in Richmond.

For Real Food Mart will open its doors June 26 at 3000 Sexsmith Rd., with the goal of becoming Canada’s largest Asian supermarket.

On Wednesday, staff unpacked countless boxes inside the nearly 80,000-square -foot store, loading shelves with packaged food ahead of next week’s ribbon-cutting ceremony. Other workers tested grocery scanning systems and tended to last-minute details of the newly-renovated space.

Founded by a group of Chinese investors, For Real bills itself as a comfortable and modern store catering to shoppers in search of Asian foods and produce.

They’ve hired a staff of 300 to operate a store that “strives to be a significant part of the flourishing Asian culture that is immersed in (the cultural) mosaic (of) Canada,” said president Xiangyun Liu in a letter provided to reporters this week.

“For Real Food Mart’s

an outdoor garden centre. It’s sandwiched between two major roads leading to the airport, Bridgeport Road and Sea Island Way, and is located steps away from the planned multi-tower neighbourhood of Capstan Village.

The site was previously occupied by one of Richmond’s first schools, Bridgeport School, which was demolished in 1984.

For Real will face plenty of competitors in the local Asian grocery market in Richmond’s City Centre area, although few can match its size.

Established retailers include T&T Supermarket in President Plaza, Osaka in Yaohan Centre, PriceSmart foods on Ackroyd Road, China World Super Market on Odlin Road and H Mart in Aberdeen Centre.

At the Kinsmen Adult Day Centre Wednesday, the Richmond woman celebrated her 100th year on the eve of her milestone birthday.

“Lots of veggies,” she said through a translator.

The gift before the surgery: Mom knew what she wanted!

Earlier this month, reasons for judgment were released in the case Hegel Estate v. Logan.

In the family, the father passed many years ago and the wife survived. The couple had 8 children (all adults). The family home was the main asset of the Estate. Title was registered in the mother’s name.

In 2011, suffering from colon cancer, the mother needed surgery. Shortly before the operation, she decided to add to the title three of her children. It seems to have been based largely on need; some of the children enjoyed better financial circumstances than others.

The named Executor, one of the children, challenged the transfer.

Such transfers are now subject to the law of Resulting Trust. So if the transfer happens, the people now on title have to show that their mother intended a gift in transferring title to them. If they cannot, they are held to be Resulting Trustees and have to transfer title back to their mother (or her Estate, as she passed away some time after the surgery).

In this case, the three children were able to prove their mother knew what she wanted to do, had the proper capacity, and wanted to gift the property.

Meanwhile, the Executor (Plaintiff ) could not prove that the mother was pressured to make the transfer or did not have mental capacity. The Court held that the children now owning the property could retain title, as their mother wanted to help them (in fact, she provided considerable help to the Executor over her lifetime, and so now wanted to help other children, who were in need, as well).

Such Estate planning decisions are hard to make. It doesn’t appear that the mother had a lot of time to make her decision, but she didn’t seem to need it either. She knew what she wanted, she was able, and she made the decision.

She also had legal advice from a senior lawyer! That helped.

Centenarian knows how to stay calm From Page 5 The former housewife now attends the Kinsmen centre twice a week.

Located near the hospital, the centre offers activities, programs, meals and a place for socialization for adults and frail seniors and people with disabilities.

Those who know Lau understand there’s more to her long life than carrots and bok choy.

“She’s calm. She never gets angry,” said halfdaughter Grace Cheung.

At the Kinsmen—which has now celebrated milestone birthdays for two centenarians—Lau enjoys tai chi, and is known for her mahjong skills and zest for life.

“She enjoys life. You can see by her smile,” said Joan Garritty, executive director of the Richmond Kinsmen Home Support Society, which operates the day centre.

“She’s got a great spirit.”

City falling behind on rentals From Page 1 City staff recommended approval, and suggested using the cash to boost a part-city project at 8111 Granville Ave., which is expected to provide more than 100 subsidized rental housing units by spring 2016.

The planning committee hasn’t ruled Intracorp’s plan out but wants to explore other options first, including a partial cash-in-lieu contribution that could still see some affordable units built near the oval.

Coun. Bill McNulty, committee chair, said Richmond is falling behind in affordable rental housing, and said he’d like to see it integrated in new projects.

“We need to encourage people to include that in major developments,” he said. “On this one, we’ve got to be careful because it’s by the oval. Are we saying that we don’t want any rental housing over by the oval?”

A year ago city council voted 8-1 to grant the exclusion to developers of two new riverfront communities. Council dropped the requirement for the neighbouring River Green, and Parc Riviera on the North Arm. Coun. Chak Au was alone in opposition, saying at the time he feared council was giving developers a strategy.

“In order to get a step into the door they may promise it in the beginning,” he said. “If we then let them backpedal in the middle of the stream, it’s unfair to everybody. That’s the kind of thing I want to prevent.”

At a public hearing, advocate De Whalen warned council Richmond would become a city of “rental ghettoes” if developers get their way.

“How will the city ensure we have complete and vibrant neighbourhoods, with varying ages, ethnicities and income levels?” she said.

EDITORIAL: Don’t nix mixed oval housing

T

here’s a mix of all types of housing in every corner of Richmond, thanks to the wisdom of city planners who realized that creating ghettos was in nobody’s best interest.

But Richmond council is on the precipice of making a monumental mistake by letting a developer skirts his obligations to build affordable housing in the Richmond Olympic Oval precinct.

It would in effect be a very real third strike for council—after two previous swings and misses involving other developers who were given the green light—which would in the end result create an exclusive neighbourhood of wellheeled residents lacking those of more modest economic status.

On Tuesday, the city’s planning committee heard a proposal backed by city staff that

would allow Intracorp to donate $4.6 million instead of building 29 low-end market rental housing units at River Park Place in a standalone building.

Sure, that $4.6 million would be dedicated to building affordable housing in the downtown core—sensibly located near mass transit including the Canada Line—but at what cost?

Imagine the joy of this developer, who stands to benefit greatly from having no social housing near its 586 homes billed as “the new luxury.”

Who wants a dented old Honda ruin the image of a gleaming Rolls Royce or Bentley by parking right beside them?

Does the developer stands to recoup some of that $4.6 million by being able to charge more for those 586 units simply by removing a perceived blight that would otherwise ruin their exclusive view?

In addition to this one project, two other

council decisions last year are lining up to create a type of neighbourhood that city planners have for decades managed to avoid.

Last year, city council granted a similar exclusion that Intracorp is seeking to River Green and Parc Riviera.

It seems Coun. Chak Au is the only member of council who has the right perspective.

“In order to get a step in the door, they may promise it in the beginning. If we then let them backpedal in the middle of the stream, it’s unfair to everybody. That’s the kind of thing I want to prevent,” he said of developers.

Advocated De Whalen saw it similarly.

“How will the city ensure we have complete and vibrant neighbourhoods, with varying ages, ethnicities and income levels?” she said.

The reality of council’s decision is something we’ll all have to live with for decades to come.

The World Cup of food security

Green Scene Steve Mullins

T

he World Cup can be a humbling experience for rich countries when they discover that their team of football heroes can lose to one from a country they’ve barely heard of, but that is one of the things that makes the World Cup great.

Top football talent can come from anywhere in the world, and the powerhouses of the sport can come from unexpected places.

In Brazil, the top 32 teams in the world are meeting head-to-head to determine which country will claim the honor of being World Champs. We will soon find out where these countries rank in the world of football, but I couldn’t help but wonder how these countries compare in their efforts to feed their citizens. How do these nations fare in the World Cup of Food Security?

But how do you assess where a country stands in the rankings of food security? Not surprisingly, that isn’t easy, since it depends on a great many factors that intertwine with others. To answer this

The World Cup of soccer is on, but how do nations fare when it comes to food security.

question, the Economist Intelligence Unit (part of the Economist Group that publishes the Economist Magazine) designed a research tool called the Global Food Security Index to analyse food insecurity in 105 countries, looking at factors like food supply affordability, availability, quality and safety. The Economist is keenly interested in this because good food security is a leading indicator of a country’s social and political stability, key factors that wealthy individuals and businesses need to assess before making investments.

So who is the World Cup of Food Security Champion? It’s the United States of America.

Was that surprising? They are the richest country in the world, so it shouldn’t be. But what makes them number one? The Global Food Security Index considers food affordability,

availability, quality and safety as key indicators.

Richer countries have the resources to address all of these concerns, and America leads in most of these.

But what about the other countries in the World Cup? How do they compare? Since there are thirty one other countries, we can only look at trends here. The host country, Brazil, is ranked 33rd in the world. The other South American countries all fall in the 30-40 range, with the exception of Ecuador at 56th.

Western European countries all fare well, filling out many of the top twenty spots, while former Soviet bloc countries reside in the 40s. Russia itself is ranked 40th. Asian countries like Japan and South Korea come in at 21st and 25th, while the African countries fare quite poorly, dropping way down the list, with the Ivory

Coast at 76th and Nigeria coming in last at 87th.

It should be noted that these food security rankings are an aggregate/ average of a country’s performance, and can mask those who are disproportionately affected by differences in socio-economics and race.

While these rankings seem to tell a predicable story, there is some welcome indicators that give hope. Chief of these is that overall, food security worldwide is improving.

According to Foreign Affairs, Trade and Development Canada, in 2009 an estimated 1.02 billion people didn’t have enough to eat. But as of 2013, the number of people suffering food insecurity has shrunk to 870 million.

Though this is still a horrendous number, the trend downward is welcome.

You can see this trend developing if you look

at the 3-year indicator of change in the Global Food Security Index. The country that has shown the biggest improvement in that time is the Ivory Coast, which has improved 6.2%. Many of the other African countries have seen steady improvement. But not everything is well. Perhaps the most unwelcome news here is that the richest countries in Europe are showing noticeable declines on this scale.

And as for Canada, where do we stand? We are 8th worldwide, but showing a slow but steady decline in food security. While this may shock some Canadians, it is no surprise to people who advocate for food security. For example, poverty is a prime cause of food insecurity, and British Columbia has the highest child poverty rate in Canada, even though we are a rich province. The rate stands at 18.6%, a full 5% above the national average and almost double that of our neighbouring province, Alberta. Obviously food security is not just an automatic outcome of wealth, but of good policy and political will.

In football, the World Cup seeks to crown a single victor, but in food security, this would be tragic.

In the World Cup of Food Security, the best result is if all sides win.

Editor: We have been enjoying the new greenway along Railway Avenue for over a year now and we must admit that the city has done an excellent job.

Love the patches of wildflowers, the new trees will provide welcome shade once they start to grow and the biggest surprise were the new signs where the old B.C. Electric stops used to be.

Too bad someone got them wrong.

Walk from Francis to Woodwards to Cottages and you see the distance to Vancouver going from 12.8 miles to 13.1 miles to 14.3 miles. Going further south at Branscombe the distance all of sudden is 13.8 miles and at Garry/ Wye the distance is (again) 14.3 miles, the same distance indicated further north at Cottages. Obviously Cottages and Wye cannot be the same distance from Vancouver, so, who screwed up here, the crew painting, or the engiClare Scott photos neer detailing the plan?

My positive suggestion is to remove Mr. Fassbender from the equation. There are many capable MLAs; here in Richmond-Steveston our John Yap has shown his ability to work calmly and with effect. In short, I urge the premier to put Fassbender out, and quickly get a negotiated settlement by putting someone more effective on the portfolio.

The Pulse of Richmond Hospital Natalie D. Meixner

When every moment counts, you want to be able to rely on a team of experts who understand your challenges.

If the illness or emergency you face is beyond the scope of what your family doctor or walkin clinic can provide, Richmond Hospital’s Emergency Department is here to care for you and your family, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

The demand for emergency care in Richmond has continued to increase.

With a rapidly growing community and the fastest growing senior population in B.C., Richmond’s Emergency Department is seeing nearly 10 percent more visits than the previous year.

Richmond Hospital’s emergency team is

committed to delivering high quality and compassionate care and we are proud to have Dr. Matthew Kwok, emergency physician and UBC clinical assistant professor, as part of the team. Born in Hong Kong, Dr. Kwok grew up in Winnipeg and moved to study medicine here at UBC. He graduated in 1999, completed a residency in emergency medicine at the University of Toronto, and fortunately for us, returned to practice at Richmond Hospital for the past eight years.

As one of a number of emergency physicians who call Richmond home, Dr. Kwok is a skilled doctor and a tireless advocate for patients and the health of our community. Here, he shares his perspective on the wonderful care that is provided to those who visit the Richmond Hospital Emergency Department: “What attracted me to come work here at Richmond Hospital is the team. It’s a really competent and compassionate group. There are quite a few physicians who have worked here for more than 20 years. That tells

Dr. Matthew Kwok.

me it’s a great place to work. They like it here and they’ve stayed.

“It’s the perfect-sized hospital. I know everyone by name, which really helps with better patient care. We work together better because we know each other so well.

“From a doctor’s perspective, it’s a very interesting place to work.

We care for people of all ages, from babies who are a few days old to adults over 100 years old, from the sickest patients to those with more minor injuries. I help people with all kinds of illnesses and conditions.

“Richmond Hospital is also important to me because like a number of my colleagues, I live here. The hospital provides care for

my family, my children, my extended family and my friends. It’s personal.

“The government tries their best to invest in health care, but taxpayers’ dollars are limited. We always need donor help because our community is growing and the number of people visiting the Emergency Department is growing as well.

We want to continue to deliver the highest quality care that our patients expect.

“Donors help us purchase additional pieces of equipment so patients don’t have to wait for our sole unit to become available. That is how donors can improve Emergency care. Through the generosity of donors, Richmond Hospital is a much better place and much better equipped.”

Please consider making a gift. Your donation, combined with those of others, will have a positive impact on many patients and families. See www. richmondhospital foundation.com for info.

Natalie D. Meixner is president and CEO of Richmond Hospital Foundation.

“There haven’t been too many of those lately,” he joked, pressing harder on the metal, perhaps to make a point.

As Infiniti Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products, rather than merely offering his name as a celebrity endorsement. He talked enthusiastically about the new compact, performance-oriented Q30, which should see the light late next year in Europe and a little later in Canada.

The 328-horsepower 3.7-litre V6 Q50S we were riding in also benefitted from a little of his input. He’s clearly looking forward to Infiniti giving the go-ahead to the Q50 Eau Rouge concept, which features the Nissan GT-R’s growling 560-horsepower twin-turbo V6.

Another corner loomed and I leaned into the door, as he barely slowed from the rapid pace we had zipped along the straight.

“Your cornering has improved since last year,” I offered cheekily.

“Thank you, I think I’ve got the apexes about right,” he grinned. Hours earlier, it’s doubtful he had even heard of the tricky track, nevermind driven it.

Harkening back to his references to happy endings, I reminded him that after driving with me last year he had enjoyed nothing but success.

“That’s right . . . it’s all down to you,” he said with what I believed was a thoroughly genuine smile of appreciation.

The end was nigh. Time flies when you are having fun: our hot lap and friendly chat took less than four minutes.

Last Sunday, he enjoyed only his second podium finish of the year taking third place at the Montreal Grand Prix.

You’re welcome, Seb. Same time next year, in the Eau Rouge?

As Infiniti’s Director of Performance, Vettel is truly playing a role in the development of future road products.

Question of the Week Four-time F1 champ Sebastian Vettel got behind the wheel of a kart when he was just three-and-a-half years old and was racing at age eight. Should we encourage teens to follow that example, as a way of learning about vehicle speed and control before getting their first license at 16?

Zoom-Zoom goes flash and boom With a flash of lightning beside our car, my co-pilot Alexandra Straub let out a screech as loud as the accompanying crack from the massive flash.

Pouring rain in our tiny car made the very first day of the 2014 Mazda rally one to remember. The Mazda MX-5 (Miata) is a car most would associate with sunny, summer top-down driving but this little machine was determined to show what it was made of. The howling wind, torrential rain and debris-covered roads were all taken in stride as we carved our way through the Tennessee mountains on our way to the Brasstown Valley Resort in neighboring Georgia.

Over the next three days, we experienced the MX-5 on some of the most dramatic and scenic roads this continent has to offer, and there was money on the line, big money.

Last year was the inaugural Mazda Rally, which Alexandra and I won, taking home $10,000 in charity money for Kidsport. As last year’s champions, we had extra pressure this year to repeat, something we later found out would be much tougher than we had imagined.

If you ever take a drive through the south east of the United States, do yourself a favour and divert away from the interstate highway system and experience driving nirvana, traversing the Blue Ridge, Unico and Smokey Mountain ranges. The lush National and State parks along with small towns and twisting river valleys is something to experience.

This is a destination for drivers too, especially the “Tail of the Dragon”, a section of highway 129, just inside the North Carolina border that has 318 turns over an 18km stretch. This is a favourite of motorcycle riders but it is open to anyone wanting to experience back-to-back corners ranging from very tight to wide, sweeping turns. Our run up this road was wide open thanks to steady rain, with a few dozen motorcyclists out for a tour and several photographers taking pictures, then selling them to tourist, the same way you can buy a picture of your rollercoaster ride at the PNE! Paved roads are the place the MX-5 shines, wet or dry.

It never felt like the car was out of control, even on the fastest and most aggressive

corners. There is so much goodness dialled into this little car that it rewards the driver and passenger hour-after-hour. With a front engine, rear drive setup and perfect weight distribution, the MX-5 has been one of my all-time favourite cars because of its simplicity.

The small, light, thrifty dimensions matched to a raspy 2.0L 4-cylinder and 6-speed manual makes for a fantastic power-to-weight distribution, meaning the 160hp engine might not sound like much on paper but, in practice, it makes the most of every situation.

One thing Mazda’s event planners has us do was drive and collect information for each days challenges. All of these were kept secret until the beginning of each drive, including the roads we might travel. A surprise was that some sections were unpaved. Taking Mazda’s brand new MX-5 through forest back-roads at speed, meant rocks flying, branches felled from the previous night’s storm kicking up, sliding sideways through corners and pounding over rough and rutted gravel.

At the end, the MX-5 showed no signs of wear; it just powered on to the next challenge, which was another surprise, the Atlanta Motorsports Park for an autocross challenge. To say we went from one extreme to the other is an understatement. An hour earlier I was sliding across gravel roads, followed by sliding around a racetrack trying to avoid pylons to dial in my best lap time. As it turns out I did get the second best time of the event but one of those pylons got in the way, knocking down my time by two seconds, all part of the challenge’s rules.

Over the three-day event, Alexandra and I didn’t have one disagreement, I made

some navigational errors and so did she. We let it roll, these were long days and we hoped a few small glitches wouldn’t impact our score too much. We also missed one major clue in our guidebook, one that was worth a whopping 50 points.

At the end, we had slipped from second place after the first day to fifth place.

Sadly, next year we won’t be able to proudly display the number one on the side of our Black Press car. zack.spencer@drivewaybc.ca PLEASE READ THE FINE PRINT: Offers valid until June 30, 2014.

The mean, lean, Mustang machine

by Bob McHugh The 2011 model year edition of the Ford Mustang, coupe and convertible, came with a more menacing frontal appearance and, under hood, new engines produced more power with less fuel. So, you could also call it the “meaner and leaner” revamp.

Appearance changes on the 2011 included new headlights and revised lower fascias, fenders and grille, plus a power-dome hood that allows additional air cooling to the Mustang’s new engines. At the back, new threelight LED lamps sequentially signal a turn, reminiscent of the muscle car years.

The Mustang GT convertible models came with improved body rigidity with 12 per cent more lateral stiffness versus the previous year. In addition to newly strengthened structural members, under its hood you’ll also find a (race-style) tower-to-tower strut brace.

Even the new base 3.7-litre V6 engine packs a punch as it can deliver 305 horsepower and can rev to 7000

tang, the priciest and speediest pony of them all, the audacious Shelby GT500. Power comes from a supercharged 5.8-litre that can produce 650 horsepower and it can also deliver over 600 ft-lb of tire-smoking torque.

On the inside, a Mustang offers two-plus-two seating, which translates to limited leg and head room for the rear seat occupants. While Mustang’s trunk is not huge, it’s a little bigger and easier to access than the trunk in arch-rival Chevrolet Camaro.

Both the Coupe and the Convertible editions of Mustang claim very good crash test safety ratings. Consumers Reports gives it “recommended buy” status and reliability has been average to better-than-average, with the V6 engine versions being slightly more dependable.

The 2012 model year brought the re-introduction of a Boss 302 coupe edition, with a high-output 5.0-litre V8, plus a new Premium trim level of the V6 edition. Selectable electric power-assisted steering, with Comfort, Sport and Normal settings, also became standard on all models.

rpm. Its rated city/highway fuel economy is an impressive 10.7/6.4 L/100km. And its power-to-weight ratio is almost double the previous base engine offering.

Moving up a trim the Mustang GT has a 5.0-litre V8 under its hood. This engine is also a four-valve, all-aluminum engine, only this one is can pump-out 412 horsepower. And sounds great doing it! City/highway fuel consumption is rated at 11.8/7.9 L/100km and a larger (cast aluminum) oil pan also extends oil change intervals. The GT also comes with electric power-assist steering (EPAS), an upgraded braking system with vented discs all around and an enhanced suspension.

GT buyers could also add a California Special appearance package and a Brembo brake and wheel package.

A six-speed manual transmission was standard and automatic option was also a six-speed. This automatic has a grade-assist or “hill mode” feature that prevents sixth gear selection on a steep up-hill drive, plus engine braking going down a hill.

There is another limited production edition of Mus-

The 2013 Mustang got lighting that is even more distinctive and some minor exterior tweaking. A new SelectShift Automatic transmission with a manual shift feature was a significant mechanical upgrade and the 6-speed manual gearbox also gained a Hill Start Assist feature.

An iconic American car, the Ford Mustang offers classic styling yet can also be a reliable and reasonably priced used sports car and a great driving experience.

Ideal big truck for a big truck guy

by Ian Harwood

‘‘

Not too long ago driving a heavy duty truck with a diesel engine meant you were in for a bumpy ride, not to mention the noise and smell of diesel fuel.

Not now.

’’

Ian Harwood

You can feel your voice get deeper when you climb aboard this big guy.

The 2014 Chevy Silverado HD I tested recently featured a 6.6-litre Duramax Turbo V8 diesel engine, mated to an Allison 6-speed automatic transmission, capable of putting out 397 horses and provides 765 lb ft of torque.

It gets deeper.

This guy can carry up to 1706 kg and tow up to 8119 kg.

And the truck box has load-bearing upper hooks are rated to hold 113 kg each.

prevents the vehicle from being started without the key.

Forward collision alert, lane departure warning and safety alert driver seat are all standard.

Roadworthy The steering is very direct and responsive and makes driving a large truck very easy. There is no fighting the steering wheel which can be a problem with other trucks in this category. The cab is very quiet and you can barely hear any road or tire noise. The diesel engine is a little noisy but not a big concern. The EZ lift tailgate is a nice feature, especially opening with one hand, gone are the days when the tailgate just drops and almost takes out your hips.

Towing capability This vehicle can tow up 8,119 kg and combined with the improved trailer sway control makes towing enjoyable.

The stabilitrak control system can sense if your trailer is swaying and help control it by combining the power of the engine and the braking system to keep the trailer under control. The rearview camera is a nice touch helping to align the trailer during hookup. Hill start assist is a good feature and helps prevent you from rolling back on a hill by maintaining brake pressure until the engine delivers enough torque to move the truck up the hill.

Actor returns to stage in psychological thriller Steveston actor stars in The Other Place, which makes its Canadian premiere this month

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter Daryl Shuttleworth doesn’t aspire to hand out speeding tickets and fight crime on the streets of Richmond—he just looks like he does.

“People at parties go, ‘Are you a cop?’ No I’m not a cop, but for some reason I give it off, and you can’t fight it,” said the 53-year-old in an interview.

In a 30-plus-year career as an actor, the Steveston resident has played his fair share of cops. He’s soon to appear as a detective in the upcoming BBC America series Intruders starring Mira Sorvino and John Simm, and his film and TV credits are long on authority figures.

Shuttleworth has turned down the heat, so to speak, for his latest role that’s bringing him back

GRAND OPENING JUNE 22

Daryl Shuttleworth stars alongside Chilton Crane in the new psychological thriller ‘The Other Place,’ opening at the PAL Studio Theatre June 26.

The Other Place •Written by Sharr White •June 26 to July 5 at PAL Studio Theatre, 581 Cardero St. in Vancouver •Tickets, $23 to $25, at 1-877-840-0457 or at ticketstonight.ca to a Vancouver stage for the first time in 12 years. Shuttleworth plays an oncologist in The Other Place, a new play by Sharr White making its Canadian Premiere this month at the PAL Studio Theatre.

The actor was bit by the acting bug at Annieville Elementary School in North Delta, where he grew up. He later attended University of Victoria and graduated from the National Theatre School of Canada in 1983. He’s performed on stages coast-tocoast, but in more recent years film and TV roles took over, as Shuttleworth balanced work with raising three children.

Now, after years away from the stage, he’s jumping back on to face the fourth wall.

“Last year I said: I have to do some theatre. I just have to do it,” he said.

Police recover remains of incendiary device at 7888 Saba Rd.

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter An explosion outside a sixth-floor elevator at a Saba Road residential building has prompted Richmond Mounties to ask for the public’s help in finding answers.

Around 9 p.m. on Monday, Richmond Fire-Rescue responded to a report of a fire inside the building at 7888 Saba Road, near No. 3 Road.

The incident prompted the evacuation of the entire building and a closure of the nearby streets, but ultimately no fire was found.

Instead, the remains of an incendiary device was found that caused “a small amount of damage” to an area near the elevators.

“It is fortunate no one was injured when the device went off,” Richmond RCMP Cpl. Ashton said.

Ashton said the device was “more like a big firework,” but said the pieces will now be analyzed at a laboratory.

Richmond RCMP’s Serious Crime Unit is now conducting the investigation, and canvassing the area for witnesses and reviewing video surveillance footage for potential suspects.

Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact the Richmond RCMP at 604-2781212, or call Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-8477.

River Rock organizing show on 10th anniversary to benefit Richmond Family Place

by Matthew Hoekstra Staff Reporter River Rock Casino Resort is organizing a benefit concert for Richmond Family Place, featuring Tom Lavin and the Legendary Powder Blues.

The June 24 show will feature the music of a three-decades-old Canadian blues band whose sound is a mix of swing, blues, jazz, rock and rhythm and blues.

Lavin formed the band in 1978 after moving to Vancouver from Chicago. Its 1979 debut album, Uncut, was overlooked by the big record labels. But after selling 30,000 copies in a few weeks on their own, labels came calling. To-

Tom Lavin is leader of the Legendary Powder Blues.

day, Powder Blues albums, featuring songs like “Doin’ It Right” and “Hear That Guitar Ring,” have sold over a million copies worldwide.

This year marks the band’s 36th anniversary.

All proceeds from the Tuesday

night show go to Richmond Family Place—River Rock’s charitable partner that supports over 5,000 local families through multiple services, educational classes and workshops.

The concert is part of River Rock’s 10th anniversary celebrations.

During its time in Richmond, River Rock has supported numerous charities and community organizations, including the BC Children’s Hospital Foundation, Richmond Food Bank, Richmond Society for Community Living, Richmond Chinese Community Society, and Volunteer Richmond Information Services through volunteering endeavours, in-kind donations or financial contributions.

The June 24 show begins at 8 p.m. at River Rock Show Theatre.

Tickets available by donation ($10 per person minimum suggested) at River Rock Casino Resort’s front desk and at Richmond Family Place, 8660 Ash St.

It’s a great time to renovate In this economy, homeowners are watching every penny. Just because money is tight doesn’t mean every renovation plan has to be cast aside.

Smaller projects can revitalize a room without a big investment.

Homeowners who don’t have much to spend still don’t want to compromise quality with smaller improvements.

Therefore, they’re often thinking of big appeal, albeit on a smaller scale.

To get started, homeowners should look at the rooms they use the most and begin there.

What’s the point of starting in a guest room or renovating the basement if it’s rarely used?

Put available funds to work on the rooms that get seen.

For example, the kitchen is a popular room in many homes. If budget doesn’t allow for a rehaul of appliances or cabinetry, think about less expensive ways to modify the space. A new faucet can give the room a different look, as can replacing cabinet hardware and hinges.

Revitalize the appear-

Replacing cabinet hardware is a budget friendly way to update a kitchen.

ance of the room with new flooring, such as laminate that mimics the look of stone, wood or other natural surfaces.

Change the accessories in a china hutch or hang some different artwork for an instant change.

Bathroom makeovers are often high on the list of improvements. But many improvements can be budget-busters.

Think about improve-

Think green when time to renovate 1. Install low-flow faucets, shower heads and toilets that reduce the consumption of water in the household.

2. Motion-detector lights can be installed in different rooms of the home and outdoors. Lights will automatically turn on and off depending on the activity in the area.

3. Solar panels can be installed on the roof or in the yard to power various components of the household, like lights during a traditional power outage or the swimming pool filter.

4. Insulate the entryway of your home with a storm door that will buffer against harsh weather conditions. While you’re creating a more air-tight space, caulk around windows and doors.

5. Replace air filters. Your HVAC system likely has filters inside that trap dirt and contaminants. Replacing the filters leads to cleaner indoor air and helps the unit run more efficiently.

6. Stock up on power strips and plug all of your peripherals and computer equipment into these strips. This way when you want to power down everything completely, you simply turn off the power button on the strip.

7. Fans aren’t just useful in the summer. In the winter, the blades can be set to rotate in the opposite direction and help draw warm air into the room, heating more efficiently.

8. Set up rainwater barrels at the downspouts of your home’s gutter system. These barrels collect water that can be used to water indoor and outdoor plants, or even wash the car.

9. Install glass fireplace doors. They’ll help protect against heat loss up the chimney when there isn’t a fire lit.

ments that change what is disliked. Maybe outdated wallpaper can be removed and replaced with paint. Clean up the grout around a bathtub by redoing to freshen the room. Go with a new color scheme achieved by replacing the old linens, bath mat and shower curtain.

Living room re-dos can be achieved with some accessory changes and perhaps a new piece of furniture. Change a glass coffee table for an earthy leather ottoman that can also store toys or throw pillows. A simple swap of window treatments can dramatically change the look of the room. If seating has seen better days—but a new set is not an option—formfitted slipcovers are a quick, and generally lowcost, fix.

Kids’ rooms often can be improved with some much-needed storage space. Clear up clutter from the floor by installing a closet organizing system, which can hang

clothes within reach for children. Older children may appreciate a room that reflects their maturity. Now is the time to change princess prints for bolder graphics or dump trucks for sophistication. All it often takes is a little paint and some new bed linens to achieve the look.

For a dramatic change in a home with hardwood floors being hidden by carpeting, take the weekend to pull up the carpeting and reveal the floors beneath. A little sanding and resealing is often all it takes to bring out the beauty of the wood. And that will instantly provide value while increasing aesthetic appeal.

Another simple and very inexpensive way to renovate a home is to reduce. By removing clutter and items that are simply collecting dust, homeowners can breathe new life into spaces.

Rearranging furniture is also another option.

Stealers hosting second annual Keeley classic

by Don Fennell Sports Editor A year ago, Marshall Shields recognized the importance of paying homage to the longtime “Voice of Steveston Park,” and so with the full support of the fastball community the Richmond Stealers organized the inaugural George Keeley Memorial Fastball Tournament.

Seven teams participated in the first event last June, and because of its success a second annual tournament is planned for this Friday and Saturday at the venerable Moncton Street ball park.

“George dedicated a lot of time to fastball in Richmond and this is why we’re doing this—to rec-

Ryan Shields will be among the participants in the second annual George Keeley classic this weekend.

ognize his contributions,” said Shields. “And this year we’re trying to raise funds to make a donation in his name to cancer research in B.C.,”added Shields, whose Stealers’ team will be one of at least five clubs in this weekend’s classic which begins with a 6:30 p.m. clash between the Stealers and Richmond Canadians

at 6:30 p.m., followed by the Richmond Mariners versus Port Coquitlam Angels at 9 p.m. Play resumes at 9 a.m. Saturday, with games every 90 minutes until the final at 7 p.m.

Surrey Rebels—which won last year’s inaugural tournament by defeating the Stealers with a dramatic grand slam home run in

the bottom of the seventh inning to overcome a 6-1 deficit—have also confirmed their participation.

Led by Ryan Campbell and Tyler Lindgren, the Mariners lead the Lower Mainland Premier Men’s Fastball League with a 7-04 record. In a rebuilding mode, the Stealers—featuring former Team BC juniors Ryan Shields and Jake and Sandy Doyle and led by longtime pitching ace Darren Strang—sit in third place. And the alwayscompetititve Canadians, led by Brad Miller and former Richmond Sockeyes’ goaltender Kevin McKay, are fifth.

•Richmond Bantam A Mariners of the Richmond Boys’ Fastball League will be operating a concession

during the Keeley classic, with proceeds going to support their upcoming entries in the Western Ca-

nadian championship and B.C. Summer Games.

The Stealers will also be welcoming national teams

from New Zealand and Australia for a few exhibition games at Steveston Park in early July.

Richmond Futures set to debut “Our whole objective is to increase the awareness of tennis in the Richmond area,” says Richmond Country Club tennis pro Henry Choi, who in addition to serving on the organizing committee is also committed to play. “(Worldwide) tennis is booming. Tennis Canada, within the last decade, has put a lot of resources into the sport and the long-range plan is to make it a successful sport here,” said Choi, 33, who is originally from Toronto.

“One of the ways is by trying to improve the system in which kids learn the game. In Toronto and Montreal, especially, a lot of resources have been put into high performance and you see the results with the likes of Milos Raonic (ranked ninth in the world) and Eugenie Bouchard (the 13th ranked women’s player in the world).”

Historically, tennis has also been seen by many as a sport

Pro tennis event will feature international stars of tomorrow

by Don Fennell Sports Editor The future is now at the Richmond Country Club.

Armed with at least a threeyear commitment, pro circuit tennis is set to debut locally this weekend with the launch of the $15,000 Richmond Futures.

Sanctioned by the International Tennis Federation, the 2014 draw June 21 to 29 will feature several up-and-coming internationallyranked players in the men’s event. Among them are familiar local names such as Filip Peliow of North Vancouver (ranked 236th in the world), Philip Bester (419) and Brayden Schnur (564).

for the elite. But Choi says that’s changing, with more private clubs opening their arms to high-performance programs and more public facilities being constructed.

“There are a lot of different factors as to why tennis in B.C. is growing,” says Choi. “Certainly one factor is the emergence of players on the international scene likes (Vernon’s) Vasek Pospisil (currently ranked 35th in the world) and Rebecca Marino (the Vancouver woman who decided in early 2013 to take an indefinite break from tennis after reaching the ranking of 38th in women’s single play). I think it’s built a passion for the sport in B.C. after kind of being an afterthought. No one really came out of B.C. before.”

Though the Richmond Futures is an entry-level professional tournament, the calibre of players is more than deserving of support. Choi says the players

are keen to move up the rankings and through events such as this that can happen quickly.

“Everyone has a starting point and having success at an event like this really builds on your world ranking,” he says. “And it helps too when you get a strong field this like featuring a lot of guys who’ve already done a lot of good things in tennis and a bunch of future stars in the game. I think seeing them in action will inspire a lot of younger players in our programs at the moment.”

The Richmond Futures, with Davis Trading as the title sponsor, is among a growing number of pro circuit events in B.C. The Stanley Park Open, traditionally one of the biggest amateur events in North America, is also set to become a futures tournament this year. Kelowna Future Tennis, June 28 to July 6, is also part of the International Tennis Federationsanctioned Pro Circuit.

Ask the Experts Q: Can hearing aids help people

Q: What illnesses are linked to poor oral health?

A:

with tinnitus? (Part I)

Disease #6. Alzheimers.

A: Tinnitus is a very common symptom for people with hearing loss. It has a clear negative impact on quality of life. Tinnitus can be perceived in many different forms, such as hissing, buzzing, whistling, ringing etc. It may present intermittently or permanently. The causes of tinnitus remain unclear; however, research has shown that factors such as stress, anxiety, depression, fatigue, noise, may exacerbate tinnitus.

Research also has shown that hearing aids may effectively reduce the negative impact of tinnitus. A hearing aid is a small electronic device that you wear in the ear or behind your ear. A new type of hearing aid with “Tinnitus SoundSupport” function has been designed to successfully alleviate tinnitus symptoms by generating nature-like relief sounds and soothing tones which are used for Tinnitus management programs.

Research done at the University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) has reported that people with poor oral health may be at a greater risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. As I have written in previous pieces here, the presence of chronic oral inflammation and its associated bacteria are increasingly being correlated with a variety of health problems. The presence of products from inflammation (as well as the oral bacteria which cause it) in the bloodstream may trigger an immune system response by already primed brain cells causing them to release more damaging chemicals that kill neurons. This could lead to the changes in the brain typical of Alzheimer’s.

The researchers studied donated brain samples from people with and without dementia. They demonstrated the presence of a bacterium (P. gingivalis) associated with periodontal (gum) disease in Alzheimer’s diseased brains and not in those without dementia. Although other bacteria and viruses have been linked to dementia this research suggests a link between gum disease and P. gingivalis specifically, and individuals who may be at risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. S. K. Singhrao, Senior Research Fellow at UCLan said “We are working on the theory that when the brain is repeatedly exposed to bacteria and/or their debris from our gums, subsequent immune response may lead to nerve cell death and possibly memory loss. The future of the research aims to discover if P. gingivalis can be used as a marker via a simple blood test, to predict the development of Alzheimer’s disease in at risk patients.”

regular basis?

A: Patients frequently question the need to be adjusted on a regular basis. It seems logical to wonder, “if this body is so great, why does the spine seem to subluxate so easily?”. If you consider our 21st Century lifestyles and the things we do each day, we should wonder how our spine stays in place at all. Consider the daily time we spend standing, sitting and sleeping incorrectly.

Everyone knows we are supposed to lift objects with our backs straight and our knees bent. Yet, how often do we fail to do this?

Falls, accidents and injuries to the human body are absorbed to some degree by the spinal column, putting excessive pressure on the nerve roots. Our bodies are so wonderfully constructed that they can adapt and compensate for most of the things we constantly do to abuse them. However, the stress and strains we continually subject ourselves to should convince each of us the importance of regular spinal examinations and adjustments.

up as much Vitamin D, and unfortunately Ultra Violet radiation, as we can. These harmful rays can cause a variety of eye problems, including cataracts, macular degeneration, non-cancerous growths on the surface of the eye and even cancer of the eye and eyelids. Though these diseases take many years to develop, the risk accumulates every time the eyes are exposed to sunlight.

These eye diseases can be prevented by following a few simple tips. Firstly, sun damage can occur all year round, so be sure to wear sunglasses with UV coating and broadbrimmed hats whenever you’re outside. UV rays affect everyone from children to seniors, so be sure your family is protected. Furthermore, UV rays can pass through haze and clouds, so don’t be fooled by overcast skies.

You do not need appointments to bring in merchandise to sell, but certain days are better for some things than other days. Canadian coins can be brought in Monday thru Saturday. World coins should be Monday, Wednesday or Friday. Stamps should be Tuesday or Thursday.

Scrap gold jewelry and sterling silverware or jewelry needs to be brought in on Monday, Wednesday or Friday.

connection point to your current natural gas supply and running a new line to your preferred location of your natural gas barbeque. Lines can either be run underground, through a crawl space, or strung to the outside of your home. Today’s manufacturers have come out with flexible natural gas lines that have done away with the days of threading, coupling, and painting steel pipe. This allows this work, in most cases, to be completed within a few hours to one day. Some barbeques can even be converted from propane to natural gas via a conversion kit, but if your bbq has seen better days, it may be more cost effective to simply purchase a new natural gas bbq. No matter the case, all work needs to be completed by a certified natural gas installer, registered with the BC Safety Authority.

After that…. sit back, relax, and never worry again about how much propane you have left in the tank.

It is always great to have a customer with a lot of questions prepared and who has information in hand about their pending project. I am always open to have conversations which lead up to us both learning and preparing for a successful installation and end result.

Having information such as dimensions, pictures, plans, and even ideas showing what they would like to have a finished result allows me to understand their “wish list”. This, too, allows me to educate them on their options based on their unique situations For example, if they are working with a masonry fireplace, dimensions of their opening size, room size, and pictures quickly allow us to narrow down their options ensuring a good fit. If they are building a new house or renovating to add a new feature, then construction plans provide us the guidance.

Yes. Several years ago I banned Android devices from all my client sites. It turned out to be a pretty good prediction as over 95% of all new mobile threats are on Android devices, tens of thousands of new ones every month, and some of them could cost you dearly. There is even malware that runs on Windows that infects Android devices and vice versa.

However, Android is cleaning up its act, at least on Play Store. Only .1% of the apps are now viral and usually not for long. All the other application download sites are malware laden.

Apple’s IOS is not immune to malware but the numbers are very low. Windows Phone is currently a safer mobile operating system than either Android or iOS. Unfortunately market share, like the BB, is well down in single digits. Android still strong enough to give us hi-tech security types real nightmares.

And, speaking of nightmares, kudos to the Supreme Court for cracking down on the Harper CONS penchant for spying on Canadian citizens. Thank goodness for the Charter.

If you have any questions or want the full details about this type of coverage, please call your Co-operators financial advisor, Daniel Wang.

Landlords can choose whether they will permit pets and charge a one-time pet damage deposit. The landlord can also restrict the size, kind or number of pets.

The pet damage deposit cannot be more than half of one month’s rent, no matter how many pets are being allowed. Generally, pet damage deposits can only be used to cover costs of repairing damage caused by a pet. A landlord who lets an existing tenant get a pet during the tenancy can require the tenant to pay a pet damage deposit. Before receiving the pet deposit, the landlord must get together with the tenant to inspect the rental unit and complete a Condition Inspection Report. The landlord must give the tenant a copy of the report within seven days. Pet damage deposits cannot be charged for guide animals.

When a tenant moves out When there are no problems, the landlord must return all of the security deposit or pet damage deposit, plus accrued interest, to the tenant.

A landlord may want to keep some of the deposit to cover damage caused by the tenants pet(s). The landlord and tenant can agree on an amount or the landlord can apply for a dispute resolution officer’s (DRO) order allowing him or her to keep all or part of the security deposit or pet damage deposit.

After a tenant has moved out and given the landlord their forwarding address in writing, the landlord has 15 days to do one of the following: • Return deposit monies, with applicable interest, to the tenant. The landlord may deduct any unpaid amount from a dispute resolution officer’s order from a previous dispute.

• Ask the tenant to agree in writing to any deductions and pay the difference to the tenant. Return deposit monies, with applicable interest.

• Apply for dispute resolution asking for an order to keep all or some of a deposit.

The landlord can continue to hold a deposit until the dispute resolution process is complete.

Q: Are Android phones a significant malware risk?

A:

Just as financial situations differ, life insurance solutions can also vary from being simple to complex. The good news is that life insurance policies can be customized to meet even the most complicated family situations.

Those who have not yet considered life insurance – and are concerned about leaving a financial burden for their family – might be pleasantly surprised by the options available today. Contact your local financial advisor for more information.

Sandra Melin CFSP

by Arbor Memorial

Financial situations vary – so do life insurance needs. If you’re young and single with no significant financial obligations, you may have a minimal need for life insurance. On the other hand, if you have a young family, a mortgage or high living expenses, you may have an enhanced need for insurance protection.

Because our population is aging, some insurance companies now offer insurance plans designed especially for older clients. “Our new life insurance product provides a small amount of basic life insurance coverage without the hassle of medical tests or doctors’ reports,” says Daniel Wang, Financial Advisor, The Co-operators. “The insurance is designed to cover ‘final expenses’ – expenses left behind after you pass on, such as outstanding debts, taxes, medical bills and a funeral.”

There are many variables and options that the family can chose from. Only when all options are presented, can a cost be determined.

Richmond Funeral Home

Q: Is it too late for me to get life insurance?

A:

In most cases, younger people with straightforward personal situations tend to obtain life insurance with relative ease. But what about the large number of people who are nearing (or well into) retirement? There is a belief that it becomes more difficult, expensive or even impossible for these older individuals to purchase life insurance. In many cases, quite the opposite is true.

Starter Kayla Davies stands tall among rookie-laden pitching staff Richmond Islanders 2000B proved last weekend that with hard work, dedication and teamwork, they have the ability to rise to the top.

Finishing first overall in the round-robin of the Richmond Girls’ Fastball Invitational at London Park, the Islanders went on to play the Junior 2001B Islanders in the semifinal cruising to a 12-1 win. Then they defeated the 2000B North Delta Sunfire 6-1 to win the gold medal.

The season has been a challenge for the Islanders, who lost two key players in the off-season to “A” teams and have had to rely on one starting pitcher, Kayla Davies, and a cast of new up-and-coming relievers to remain competitive.

However, the patience paid off starting Friday night with an impressive 8-3 win over North Delta, followed up on Saturday by wins over Ridge Meadows 1-0, 01 Islanders 9-0 and a loss to the eventual bronze medal winners, Langley Extreme 6-4, the only blemish on a weekend were they earned five wins against a single loss.

Davies was brilliant in pitching the majority of innings throughout the weekend, combined with great spot relief by Shanelle Gutenberg. The strong infield defence of Ayden Forte, Jessica Porter, Josie Cooke, Capri Horstmann, Kenzie Wrightson and the impressive outfield of Sheetal Reddy, Emma Chan, Mackenzie Reid and Riley Yodogawa—combined with timely hitting by the entire lineup— proved to be the winning formula.

NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT

Photos submitted by FortisBC, above and top right, and Melissa Tolsma, right

Barbecuing with natural gas is extremely convenient, as it uses the home’s natural gas supply and homeowners are able to grill with several different temperatures.

Reno Me! with FortisBC contest winner Melissa Tolsma is looking forward to the installation of her new natural gas fire pit as part of her natural gas renovation.

Reno Me! with FortisBC winner Melissa Tolsma starts her outdoor natural gas renovation

By Kerry Vital

Nanaimo’s Melissa Tolsma describes herself as a “reluctant renovator.” If something isn’t broken, there’s no need to fix it, and duct tape can fix anything that is broken.

However, when she saw the opportunity to enter last year’s Reno Me! with FortisBC contest and win $10,000 towards a renovation with natural gas, she decided that her outdoor space could use a bit of sprucing up.

After winning the contest, her renovation adventure began. Tolsma notes that she’s always cold, so having the warmth of natural gas was tops on her priority list.

Currently, one of the most popular options

that use natural gas is a fire pit, which will be an integral part of Tolsma’s renovation and something she is particularly looking forward to.

“My eight-year-old daughter is very excited about having a year-round s’mores facility right in the backyard!” Tolsma says.

According to FortisBC, outdoor natural gas fireplaces and fire pits allow you to spend more time outdoors, even in the cooler months. They’re also more convenient for homeowners, who won’t have to spend time chopping wood or dealing with uncontrolled smoke and fumes or spitting embers. Like all natural gas appliances, they provide instant heat and are available in a variety of styles.

Natural gas.

Good for outdoor living.

Entertain all year long with a natural gas barbecue. Add a patio heater or fire pit for cosy warmth and ambience. Transform your outdoor living space with natural gas.

FortisBC uses the FortisBC name and logo under license from Fortis Inc. (14-106.5 04/2014)

Tolsma’s cast concrete fire pit, from Solus Decor, is expected to arrive soon, and contractor Brad Fraser of Jonker Custom Building has been hard at work.

“Brad is working on two cedar benches to be installed next to the fire pit,” Tolsma says.

“I’ve had fun spending way too much time on Houzz, gathering ideas and images that have really helped to shape the project.”

The fire pit is just the beginning of Tolsma’s ongoing outdoor space renovation.

“I’m going to have my licensed gas contractor extend the gas line to accommodate a gas barbecue and heater in the future,” says Tolsma.

FortisBC notes that a natural gas barbecue

can be extremely convenient for homeowners looking for fuel on demand, as you’ll never have to deal with running out of propane or charcoal. It also allows you to cook with different temperatures at the same time and control the heat more easily.

Natural gas barbecues use flexible hoses that connect to the home’s natural gas supply and have a built-in shutoff. This quickconnect feature makes it simpler to attach as well. Another benefit is that cooking outdoors will keep your home cooler during the warm summer months.

Natural gas possibilities inspire renovators CONTINUED FROM HOME FRONT

In addition to using natural gas for outdoor living, Tolsma is including a new deck in her outdoor space renovation.

“The deck is built with locally harvested cedar, and has a lovely, earthy West Coast feel to it,” she says. “Brad even built a custom raised garden box with some of the leftover lumber. I’ve been busy with some landscaping and gardening work, so it’s all starting to come together.”

Another option for using natural gas outdoors is a hot tub, with its consistent, fast heat and automatic safety shut-off controls for added peace of mind. Plus, avid swimmers will be glad that natural gas can also heat swimming pools.

The possibilities for natural gas use outside continues to inspire renovators.

Depending on where you live, natural gas patio heaters keep you warm outdoors, even in the fall and winter. They use radiant heat to warm objects around them, according to FortisBC, and are connected to your home’s natural gas supply. You can also find natural gas patio lamps that can be used to light walkways, patios and other outdoor entertaining spaces. There are models available that provide bright steady light or ambient natural glow, so you’re easily able to create the mood you want for entertaining.

Natural gas is a convenient choice for more than just spending time outside.

The inside of Tolsma’s home is heated with natural gas as well.

“With a small house like mine, I love that my gas furnace can heat the house to a comfortable temperature within a few minutes,” says Tolsma. “I don’t have a fireplace inside, so I’m looking forward to having a natural gas fire feature on my new deck.”

Whether you’re upgrading your heating system or extending natural gas to the backyard, you’ll need the services of a licensed natural gas contractor. Find someone qualified in your neighbourhood at fortisbc.com/findacontractor.

The cost to operate natural gas appliances is very affordable.

Natural gas rates continue to cost less than it would cost to run with electricity. Don’t believe it? FortisBC has an online energy calculator that will help you compare the cost of fuel sources and their energy efficiency, demonstrating that natural gas is an affordable choice for homeowners. Find it at fortisbc.com/energycalculator.

Tolsma is blogging throughout her renovation. Find her blog on your local Black Press newspaper’s website, or at www.bclocalnews. com/business/realestate.

“I’m looking forward to having a deck launch party next month, and I will be inviting all my awesome family, friends, co-workers and neighbors who helped me win,” Tolsma says. “There will be burgers and s’mores galore!”

You too could enjoy natural gas in your backyard. Enter FortisBC’s Endless Summer Nights Contest for your chance to win a $10,000 natural gas dream patio. But hurry, the contest closes June 30, 2014.

OBITUARIES

BOUCHARD, John Ernest Nov 30, 1919 - June 14, 2014 Affectionately known to many as “Uncle John” or “Papa”, John Bouchard passed away peacefully on June 14 in Kelowna, B.C. at the age of 94.

A Richmond Pioneer, John was born in Eburne (now Richmond) in 1919. He lived for 90 years in Richmond before moving to Kelowna to be closer to family. John was a WWII veteran, having served in the UK and continental Europe as a Sergeant in the 4th Canadian Armoured Division Signal Corp and at the Canadian Military Headquarters in London where he met and later married fellow soldier Eileen. John owned and operated Top Notch Electric in Richmond for 40 years, and was a member of the Canadian Legion and Richmond Curling Club. He was an avid painter and photographer, with an eye for capturing the beauty in the every day.

John is survived by his loving wife of 65 years, Eileen (Morrison), as well as sister Phyllis (Beall), children Paul (Gillian) Bouchard and Carol Ludbrook. John particularly loved children, and is also survived by 4 Grandchildren (Jennifer, Andrea, Steven and Bradley), and 5 Great Grandchildren. He will be remembered by family and friends as a man with a huge heart and ever-playful sense of humour.

He was a life-long learner and teacher, a fiercely devoted husband, a kind and thoughtful friend and neighbour, and a man of true character. Those who had the privilege of knowing John are forever enriched by his presence.

A Service will be held at 2pm on Monday, June 30 at First Memorial Funeral Services on Sutherland Ave, Kelowna.

In lieu of flowers, please make a donation in John’s name to the Central Okanagan Hospice Association, #104-1456 St. Paul St., Kelowna, BC V1Y 2E6.

Condolences may be sent to the family by visiting: www.mem.com and searching his name under stories.

May 22, 1928 - June 3, 2014 Doris passed away peacefully on June 3, 2014 at Delta View Life Enrichment Centre, Delta BC. She was preceded by her husband Bill Hartley, mother and father Joan and Herbert, brother Lorne, and sisters Jean and Lois. She is survived by her sister Helen, children Bill (Della), Leslye Szymczak (Peter), Janice Gibson (Brad) and Heather Jones (Michael), grandchildren Aimee, Fraser, Morgan, Becky, Kate, Matt, Joe, Dan, Stuart and Brian and great-grandsons Baron, Sam and Will.

Doris was born in Kindersley, Saskatchewan and moved to Vancouver with her family in the early 1930’s. She attended King Edward High School, but left to begin employment at Jantzen of Canada in 1945 until 1986. During those years, Doris met Bill Hartley at Bowen Island and married in 1950, making Vancouver their home until 1957 when they moved to Richmond. They enjoyed life around family, friends and their dream backyard and pool. The happy couple ventured beyond Richmond, on a few tropical holidays before Bill was taken so suddenly.

After retirement, Doris went back to school and upgraded her education at Douglas College and began volunteering at Richmond General Hospital and then at Fraserview Care Home where her mother lived her final years.

Doris continued to enjoy life with a passion for walks in Steveston, knitting and quilting, gardening, her special times with her children and grandchildren, decorating the family home during festive holidays and occasions.

Rest peacefully, Mom/Gramma.

We will love you forever.

Thank you to the Delta View and Gilmore Gardens staffs for their care and kindness over the past five years.

In lieu of flowers a gift to the charity of your choice would be appreciated by the family.

A celebration of Doris’ life will be held at a later date.

7 DUMONT, Van Gale “STEEMAS” Van passed away peacefully at home with his family. We all remember Van as a great father, brother and friend.

Fishing was his passion as a commercial fisherman for over 50 years. Growing up in the Steveston community. He will be missed by many. We will be celebrating his life on Sunday June 29th from 1-4pm at the Bill Rigsby Manor in Richmond.

EMPLOYMENT/EDUCATION 114

Zylmans, Johanna (Annie) Elisabeth Maria, born September 06, 1924 in Geertruidenberg, Netherlands; passed away with her family by her side on June 13, 2014 in Richmond, British Columbia.

Predeceased by her husband Wim, her two sisters Jo and Adrie; lovingly remembered by her daughter Adriana, her son William (Sandra), two grandchildren Angela and William, and numerous nieces and nephews in the van Dongen and Zylmans families in Canada and the Netherlands.

In her youth in Holland, she was the “melk meisje” (milk girl) on her father’s farm. She milked the cows and peddled milk door-to-door with a hand-drawn cart.

Over the years, she had a passion for playing the accordion and singing at many social gatherings. She enjoyed spinning wool to make wool sweaters and heavy work socks to be worn with the Dutch wooden shoes. She was married on August 10, 1948 and immigrated to Canada six days later via the boat “Tabinta” out of Rotterdam, arriving in Steveston, BC on August 31, 1948. In 1955, together with her husband Wim, she established one of the first and most successful direct farm marketing enterprises in BC, W&A Farms Ltd. She loved selling strawberries, potatoes, and many different vegetables directly to consumers. The roadside stand was her idea, not her husband’s, which continues today after 61 years, now operated by her son and his wife.

Mom actively promoted Dutch culture in BC through a variety of Dutch organizations and by participating in many festivals, celebrations, and parades, including being the first to start wearing Dutch costumes at these events. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother (Oma), aunt, and sister-in-law, who had a tremendous work ethic and a strong Catholic faith. She was dedicated and loyal in supporting her husband Wim in achieving their dreams in farming. In addition, people in the Dutch and larger community enjoyed her energy, enthusiasm, and her zest for life. She will be lovingly missed by her family, as well as throughout the community.

In lieu of flowers, the family has requested that donations be made in memory of Johanna (Annie) Zylmans to Vancouver Foundation's Wim Zylmans Agriculture Memorial Fund, which supports the Wim Zylmans Agriculture Memorial Scholarship. Donations over $25 will receive a tax receipt Donations can be made online at www.vancouverfoundation.ca http://www.vancouverfoundation.ca or by phone at 604-688-2204. Cheques can be mailed to Suite 200 - 475 West Georgia Street, Vancouver, BC V6B 4M9 and payable to Vancouver Foundation with "Wim Zylmans Agriculture Memorial Fund" noted in the subject line.

Roadrunners, Shamrocks slated for Sunday showdown There’s plenty on the line this weekend when the Richmond Roadrunners and Victoria Shamrocks face off in a B.C. Intermediate A Lacrosse League Sunday matinee at Minoru Arenas. Game time is 2 p.m.

A mere two points separate the teams, with Victoria (8-1) holding the edge on fifth-place Richmond (7-4).

Both teams head into the game confident. In their most recent outing June 8, Victoria handed first-place Port Coquitlam (11-1) their first loss of the season by edging the Saints 8-7. Richmond, meanwhile, had won four in a row (12-6 and 18-6 over Burnaby, 14-8 over Nanaimo and 12-8 over Maple Ridge before bowing10-9 in overtime to Port Coqutlam Wednesday at Minoru.

Captain Jayden Campbell scored six goals (including the first two of the game) and Nick Jensen added a pair to power Richmond past Burnaby in its second

Richmond’s Chandler Bradley has been consistent at both ends of the floor this season.

Campbell was coming off a three-goal effort versus Nanaimo June 8. Tre Leclaire also had a hat trick, while Bradley and Patrick Ludemann each tallied twice.

Tied at 4-4 after a period, Richmond came out strong in the middle frame to outscore Nanaimo 7-2. They then edged Nanaimo 3-2 in the third period. Goalie Eric Kratz kept Nanaimo from scoring along with his strong defensive group that was backing him up, while Richmond’s offence made their shots count.

While the hair salon donated the expertise, the trio donated their locks—along with $2,000 from fundraising—to the Wigs for Kids Program at BC Children’s Hospital, with program chair Bev Friesen delighted to accept them.

Intracorp artist’s rendering Intracorp is seeking to give the city cash instead of building 29 affordable rental apartments in its River Park Place development.

City mulls cashin-lieu deal for ‘luxury’ condos Martin van den Hemel photo Aberdeen Centre’s Joey Kwan is dwarfed by this gigantic locust, which looks like it’s about to pick her up and fly off, while it is brought to life by Kokoro Exhibits’ Shane Dzicek. The Giant Bugs Take Over Aberdeen Centre exhibit runs from July 1 to Sept. 1, and features six massive animated insects, an interactive bugs' heads' display and a sampling of food made from bugs.

Big bugs descend on Aberdeen Centre Mega-sized exhibit begins July 1, features six humongous insects

by Martin van den Hemel Staff Reporter The Walt Disney flick Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, might come to mind when shoppers enter the atrium at Aberdeen Centre, which is now crawling with gigantic, marauding insects that wouldn’t have been out of place in the Steveston-filmed Godzilla movie.

Giant Bugs Take Over Aberdeen Cen-

tre is a fantastical new exhibit that starts July 1, featuring six humongous insects brought to life via animatronics.

There’s a 16-foot-long locust that rears up and spreads its 21-foot-wide wings, as though it were about to leap over the mega-sized grass blades and into the air.

A Chinese praying mantis serves as an imposing greeter to the exhibit, stretching more than 21 feet and facing the mall’s front entrance.

There’s a pair of 20-foot black horned fighting beetles, a stick insect, and a caterpillar, too.

All this, along with an interactive bugs' heads' display, comes courtesy Kokoro Exhibits, based in Woodland Hills, Calif.

Councillors mull third proposal to scrap affordable housing in a new development Staff Reporter

Shane Dzicek said it will take him and his team about three days to set up the display. The six giant insects were created after consultation with biologists to ensure the proportions and colours of the creatures was correctly replicated, he said.

The insects are made of foam and silicone, with aluminum subframes, he said.

Customers are also dared to chomp down on some genuine bug food, which Aberdeen Centre’s Joey Kwan has herself tried, and she survived the experience.

She hopes the exhibit meets the mall’s goal of being fun, interactive and educational for everyone.

The exhibit runs through Sept. 1.

A developer’s request to forgo the addition of affordable rental apartments in its luxury Oval Village project is giving pause to elected officials.

After granting permission to two developers last year, councillors are giving greater thought to the latest request to provide cash in lieu of affordable housing, referring the matter back to staff at a planning committee meeting Tuesday.

Intracorp had planned to construct a standalone building with 29 low-end market rental housing units as part of River Park Place, a multi-tower development of 586 homes billed as “the new luxury,” and located near the Richmond Olympic Oval.

It’s seeking council’s permission to pay $4.6 million into the city’s affordable housing fund instead of building the rental units. The figure is based on the five per cent affordable housing required in exchange for a density bonus.
