‘A very invisible injury’ ASDC OFFERS CONCUSSION ASSESSMENT

Avid skier and hockey player Carson Loeppky likes to push himself — and he has the concussions to prove it. It was that history of brain injuries that brought the 15-year-old out to Red Deer College Library on Saturday to participate in a free assessment to establish a brain function baseline. Overseen by college psychology instructor Elena Antoniadis, the computer-based testing was offered through the Alberta Sport Development Centre. “I ski and play hockey a lot and I wanted to make sure I don’t get a serious brain injury because we know people who have and never really came back from it,” said Loeppky. “I don’t think I injured my brain terribly, but it definitely did scare me a little bit. So I wanted to make sure I have some knowledge beforehand.” His first concussion happened as a playground accident when he was eight years old. Another occurred on the ski slopes at 12, followed by a third, again a skiing incident.

Horse trailer carrying 30 dogs flips on Hwy 2 BY THE CANADIAN PRESS At least two dogs have died and numerous others were injured when a vehicle that was hauling dogs from California flipped on an Alberta highway. RCMP Cpl. Mike Dunsmore says an SUV was hauling 30 dogs in a horse trailer on Saturday morning when it rolled on Highway 2 on its way to Edmonton. Dunsmore says 20 of the dogs were taken to Olds College, which has a veterinary program. He says several dogs got away and volunteers have been trying to track them down. Dunsmore says the two volunteers in the SUV were treated in hospital for minor injuries and have since been released. He says the dogs were destined for a shelter in Edmonton where they would eventually be adopted. “I can only imagine what (the officers) were faced with when they responded to that scene,” Dunsmore said. “They’re grateful for the assistance of bystanders and other motorists who stopped to lend assistance.”

Loeppky and other active youth and young adults are exactly the candidates Antoniadis and the Sport Centre had in mind. There has been plenty of attention in recent years to concussions in pro sports — NHL superstar Sidney Crosby’s injury trials just one of many highprofile cases. “I didn’t see a comparable effort in community sport,” said Antoniadis. “I thought that knowing what we do about the maturing brain, the adolescent brain, that it is more vulnerable to damage, then we should put as much effort into community sports as well.” Stakes can be high. Not identifying and treating an initial concussion can put athletes lives at risk. “Second-impact syndrome can be fatal,” she said. “There have been instances where a child has sustained one blow to the head and was allowed to resume play. And when he sustained the second one he died on the field.” The 45-minute or so assessment done at a computer screen is called ImPACT for Immediate Post-Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing.

A crash course in fire forensics BY PAUL COWLEY ADVOCATE STAFF HUXLEY — In forensics jargon, they are called cremains. Short for cremated remains, they can turn a house fire into a crime scene when investigators know what to look for. More than a dozen firefighters, peace officers and police officers were out at a farmstead near Huxley on Friday as part of a four-day crash course in fire forensics. Sifting through the ruins of an old farmhouse burned to the ground earlier in the week, teams painstakingly searched through the ash and debris to piece together a mock crime scene. Pig carcasses donated by a local Hutterite colony served as the victims. Joe Towers, a fire investigator with Red Deer Emergency Services until five years ago and now heading his own company Global Forensics Inc., was among experts passing on their knowledge. Towers said the program was put together after a fourth-floor arson fire in Red Deer a number of years ago. Fire investigators identified the points of origin and ignition sources for the fire. However, when RCMP forensic officers arrived they were looking for different clues. “They said, did you see the blood spatter? Did you see the blood on the walls going out of the apartment? “We weren’t trained in that, so we didn’t see it.” Likewise, the police investigators didn’t know how to pinpoint where a

CONCUSSION: Parameters It is the same tool that professional football, hockey and rugby teams give their players at the start of each season. Red Deer College requires its athletes to undertake the same test. The sophisticated testing measures reaction time, non-verbal decision making, graphic recognition, verbal memory, spatial memory and other parameters. Tests are designed to work both frontal and real lobes of the brain. For instance, word memory exercises target short-term memory in the front part of the brain. Tests involving shapes call on a different portion of the brain. Some exercises assess impulse control, or the brain’s tendency towards almost-automatic choices. As an example, the word red might show up in green letters requiring the participant to do what is known as “inhibit a learned response.” Should someone who has undergone the testing receive a head injury, they can return for further testing to measure whether any damage has been done and what steps need to be taken. “(Concussions are) a very invisible injury. It’s not something where you can see someone limping. “It’s just a functional injury that you can only measure by capturing their cognitive ability on a test like this. And some of those signs are very subtle.” The good news is that most can recover from concussion-related injuries given the proper treatment and enough rest. Testing takes the guess work away on how to respond to an injury for the athlete, parents, coaches and doctors, she added. Jason Chilibeck, is president of the 700-strong Red Deer Pond Hockey league, and encouraged his son Ayrton, 12, to undergo the testing. His son came away with more awareness about brain functioning and how to recognize when something is amiss should he suffer a head injury. Chilibeck said mandatory testing in the no-hit league is unlikely but he wants to get the word out to parents that the testing is available. “I don’t think a lot of people know what this is all about,” he said. The dangers of concussions, how to identify them and respond are conversations the league, parents, coaches and players should be having, he said. Antoniadis said testing is available to those 12 and up. It’s not only for younger people. Middle-aged weekend warriors can also register for an assessment. About 10 people were signed up for Saturday’s assessment. A second session takes place from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. on Sept. 20 at the college library. Those interested in getting the test another time can also set up an appointment. For information call Antoniadis at the college at

FORENSICS: Potential evidence Participants are taught how to move about a scene without contaminating evidence. How to document and photograph scenes and collect foot and tire imprints. Firefighters specifically are taught how to knock down a fire without destroying potential evidence. At the end of the program, all had to poke through the ruins of the house to find evidence of carcasses, even shell casings or bullets that had been used to put down the pigs, which had not been healthy. Later, a burned-out vehicle containing a pig carcass was to be used for a similar purpose. Finding remains is no easy task. Searchers clothed in coveralls, rubber boots and faces masks pore through the debris. Fragments of white bone can show little distinction from chunks of masonry or other building materials.

fingerprints and blood evidence were found in the ruined home. Trochu fire Capt. Bill Wohl, who is also a fire investigator, said the exercise has a lot of value to his 22-strong department. “The biggest thing I get out of this is how I can assist with the law enforcement end of it, and preservation of evidence and the way we do things. “The old saying is firefighters look down and police look up,” he said. “This taught us to take more care and be more aware,” he said. His volunteers were also able to set the fires and show police and others how they spread and what clues are left behind. Westlock County peace officer Erik Nickolson found it eye opening how much damage there was to sift through and the state of some of the remains. Some of the bone evidence crumbled as soon it was picked up. “At the scene, you definitely only get one shot at this so you have to make sure that you’re really looking and pay attention. “One of the biggest things I’ve found is the bones look a lot like everything else.

A3 Will Prentice bring stability?

MONDAY, SEPT. 15, 2014

TORIES HOPE FOR CONSTANCY AHEAD OF SWEARING IN BY THE CANADIAN PRESS EDMONTON — A new era begins Monday for Alberta’s dynastic Progressive Conservatives, once a colossus of stability and constancy, now a feuding family stricken by more staff turnover than a beachside burger stand. Jim Prentice — the former Calgary MP, cabinet minister, and key lieutenant to Prime Minister Stephen Harper — will be sworn in as Alberta’s 16th premier. He is also to announce his new cabinet. He will be the Tories’ third premier in six months, compared with the three who led them through the 35 of their first 43 consecutive years in power. Prentice, in an interview, said he is not looking backward. “Albertans will see, effective Monday, that Alberta is under new management,” he said. “That will be increasingly clear with every single day as we move forward.” But time is short and Prentice has set the bar high. Alberta is about 16 months away from its next legislated election, which must be held in the spring of 2016. Prentice has promised to clean up the scandals of the Alison Redford era, to pay down the debt which is set to hit $21 billion by 2017, open up markets for oil and other products, protect the

The Wildrose also said Edmonton PC backbencher Sohail Quadri broke leadership election rules by collecting a bunch of electronic voting PIN numbers. Quadri didn’t return a call for comment. Prentice said he’s not surprised the opposition is trying to keep the scandals in the public eye. He said he, too, wants them to stop. “That’s why I returned to public life,” he said. “I intend to clean it up, (but) what other political parties think about that or don’t think about that is not my motivation. “I will deal with specific issues as they arise.” And the opposition will be there, by his side, lending a hand.

DOGS: Raced to the scene

Imam says woman hit him with car accused him of terrorism

Deanna Thompson of the Alberta Animal Rescue Crew Society said she and other volunteers who are based in Calgary raced to the scene about 75 kilometres north of the city when they got word of the accident. Thompson said about two dozen volunteers, both with her group and students from Olds College, spent Saturday tracking down eight dogs that remained at large. By Saturday evening, five had been caught. “They’re really terrified as you can imagine, being involved in a car accident on a major highway. They’re hunkered down in the bushes, and it’s just really keen eyes, and gaining their trust enough, to be able to catch them,” Thompson said, speaking by cellphone from the highway. Thompson said the dogs were being brought to Edmonton from Los Angeles by a Saskatchewan-based group called Adopt a Paw Pet Haven for a national adoption day in the city. Some of the dogs already had homes lined up, she said. Thompson said the dogs were in kennels inside the trailer but that the kennels broke during the crash. No one from Adopt a Paw could be immediately reached for comment. Police say neither speed, alcohol, road conditions nor weather played a role in the rollover.

CALGARY — A prominent Calgary imam says he has been attacked on his way to lead prayers. Syed Soharwardy, founder of Muslims Against Terrorism and the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada, says he was knocked down by a vehicle driven by a woman in the parking lot of the Genesis Centre on Friday afternoon. He says the woman yelled a profanity at him and accused him of being a terrorist. Soharwardy says he was not hurt but has been shaken by the attack. Soharwardy is an outspoken critic of the violence perpetrated by terror groups. He reported the attack to the police, including the licence plate number of the car the woman was driving and officers are now investigating.

COMMENT

A4 Healthy land, healthy people

What if we could reduce worldwide deaths from disease, starvation and disaster while improving the health of people everywhere? According to the World Health Organization, we can. “Previously unrecognized health benefits could be realized from fast action to reduce climate change and its consequences,” says a news release about WHO’s first global conference on health and cliDAVID mate in Geneva SUZUKI from Aug. 27 to 29, adding, “changes in energy and transport policies could save millions of lives annually from diseases caused by high levels of air pollution.” Encouraging people to use public transit, cycling and walking instead of driving would cut traffic injuries and vehicle emissions and promote better health through increased physical activity. Reducing the threat of global warming and finding ways to adapt to unavoidable change will also help people around the world “deal with the im-

pact of heat, extreme weather, infectious disease and food insecurity.” Climate change affects human health in multiple ways. Increased extreme weather causes flooding and droughts, which influences food production, water and sanitation. Pathogens that plague humans, livestock and crops spread more widely. WHO notes that diseases such as cholera, malaria and dengue are especially sensitive to weather and climate changes. According to WHO, “Climate change is already causing tens of thousands of deaths every year from shifting patterns of disease, from extreme weather events, such as heat-waves and floods, and from the degradation of water supplies, sanitation, and impacts on agriculture” — and it will get worse if we fail to address the problem. The poor, elderly and children are most vulnerable. WHO’s conference was held in advance of UN secretary general Ban Kimoon’s Climate Summit 2014 for world leaders, taking place in New York on Sept. 23, and geared partly toward ensuring world leaders come up with an agreement to replace the Kyoto Protocol at the Paris UN climate change conference next year. Two days before the Climate Summit, on Sept. 21, more than half a million people are expected to gather in New York for the People’s Climate March, with simultaneous events

around the world, co-ordinated by a coalition of more than 1,000 organizations, including environmental, social justice, religious, health and labour groups. WHO’s conference and findings show the importance of getting healthcare professionals on board with climate action, as they are with the People’s Climate March. “The evidence is overwhelming: climate change endangers human health,” says WHO director-general Margaret Chan. “Solutions exist and we need to act decisively to change this trajectory.” In a Huffington Post article, Ban Kimoon stresses that global warming is an immediate and urgent issue. “Instead of asking if we can afford to act, we should be asking what is stopping us, who is stopping us, and why?” he writes. “Let us join forces to push back against skeptics and entrenched interests. Let us support the scientists, economists, entrepreneurs and investors who can persuade government leaders and policy-makers that now is the time for action.” Beyond forestalling the almost-certain catastrophic consequences of unchecked global warming, changing our habits, conserving energy and shifting from fossil fuels to clean energy will have many benefits for human health — and for the economy. Reducing the burden of pollution- and global warm-

ing–related health care costs is a big factor, but opportunities also exist in the clean technology sector. Climate Summit organizers point to the “growing recognition that affordable, scalable solutions are available now that will enable us all to leapfrog to cleaner, more resilient economies.” A leaked draft of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s Fifth Assessment’s final synthesis report concludes that global warming is already having major impacts worldwide and that, unless we do something about it, we can expect “severe, pervasive and irreversible impacts for people and ecosystems.” Our news media should be focusing on these issues rather than chasing an endless line of celebrity antics, corporate priorities and political posturing. Scientists have warned about global warming consequences for decades, but efforts by fossil fuel interests to sow doubt and confusion, combined with intransigent governments and public apathy, have brought us to a tipping point. The choice is clear: If we want to protect our health, our children’s and grandchildren’s health, and the natural systems that keep us alive and healthy, we must act now.

Growing role of women in the workforce BY JOCK FINLAYSON SPECIAL TO THE ADVOCATE The growing role of women in the workforce arguably qualifies as the most consequential socio-economic development of the past 50 years. As more women have entered the formal labour market, the productive capacity of our economy has been augmented. Indeed, increased labour input — more people working — has been the principal factor pushing up gross domestic product and household incomes in Canada. And women account for a large majority of this increase in labour input. A study done last year by the economics team at RBC estimated that the rise in female labour force participation since the early 1980s has boosted Canada’s GDP by more than $130 billion. Women today comprise approximately 48 per cent of the labour force, up slightly from 46 per cent in 1999 but significantly higher than their 37 per cent share back in the mid-1970s. Men are still more likely to be employed, but the male/female labour force participation gap has narrowed over time. On current projections, more than half of all the jobs in Canada will soon be held by women. Among women aged 15 and over, approximately six in 10 were employed in 2013; in 1976, the comparable figure was just 42 per cent. The predominant demographic trend of population aging that is starting to weigh on overall labour force participation is affecting both genders, so the proportion of all women holding jobs will edge lower as the country becomes greyer. But women’s contributions to Can-

ada’s workforce and its economy should continue to grow over the next 10 to 20 years. Where do women work? Statistics Canada’s 2011 National Household Survey reports that they are most likely to be employed in three broad occupational clusters: sales and service occupations (27.1 per cent), business, finance and administration (24.6 per cent), and education, law and government/community services (16.8 per cent). But despite gains in educational achievement, many working women hold relatively low-paying jobs. This exerts downward pressure on average compensation for female job-holders collectively; it also explains the residual male/female difference in average pay. A significant number of the 20 most common jobs for women fall in bottom third of all occupations ranked by hourly pay. There is still work to be done to ensure that women are better represented in the top half of occupations measured by total compensation. The impressive advances that women are making on the education front bode well for their career and income prospects going forward. Since the early 1990s, women have made up a majority of college and university students. By 2012, a higher percentage of women aged 25 to 44 (75 per cent) than of men in the same age category (65 per cent) had completed a post-secondary education. This contrasts with the situation for older age cohorts: among Canadians aged 65 and over, 35 per cent of women and 46 per cent of men have a post-secondary credential. The trend of rising female educational attainment is by now well-established. In both Canada and the U.S., women represent increasing shares of cur-

rent university/college students and also of recent graduates in disciplines that often pave the way to relatively high-paying jobs — including law, medicine, dentistry, architecture, business and finance. They have registered smaller gains in engineering and computer-related fields, but here too women are making inroads. A large body of data shows that girls generally out-perform boys in elementary and secondary school, and this seems to be carrying over to the university and college level. In the language of economics, women are building up their “human capital” at a faster pace than men. There are some areas of education and training where women still lag. One glaring example is the skilled trades. These are among the occupations that offer pathways to good jobs and the kind of middle-class standard of living that now seems to be out of reach for most young adults lacking any type of post-secondary qualification. According to Statistics Canada, women make up just three to seven per cent of enrolments in registered apprenticeship training programs in the construction, electrical, industrial/mechanical, metal fabricating and motor vehicle and heavy equipment trades. That’s not good enough. Employers, educators and unions need to do more to encourage young women to consider skilled trades occupations and to create a supportive environment for those who choose to follow this route.

Ministers jockey for surplus bucks as Commons returns BY THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA — Like a fresh-baked pie on the window sill, the sweet smell of a surplus has mouths watering — but which ministers will get a piece in this critical pre-election period, and how will it trickle down to Canadians? Prime Minister Stephen Harper must decide how best to spend the excess dollars in the next couple of months and there’s active lobbying for the bucks, government insiders say. All the decisions will be evaluated through the lens of the 2015 election, which looms large over what is likely the last fall sitting before the writ is dropped. As if to put a fine point on where heads are at, Harper will hold a campaign-style rally at a convention centre off of Parliament Hill Monday to kickoff the legislative season with his caucus and invited party supporters. “I think it’ll help to underline the importance that our government is actually placing on the economic side of the agenda,” Government House Leader Peter Van Loan said of Harper’s planned remarks. “That economic focus...will come across loud and clear and it’ll help to set the tone for the sitting ahead and the extent to which job creation and economic growth will be our priority.” Several government sources say ministers are doing their best to persuade the prime minister’s office that their programs or initiatives should get some love. Many departments have seen no genuinely new money since before the 2008 economic crisis, asked to find money in their existing budgets even when unveiling new activities. The Conservatives have dropped a few hints on the direction they’re likely to take. One happened on Thursday, when Finance Minister Joe Oliver announced cuts to Employment Insurance premiums — a measure directed at small-business owners. Michele Austin, a former chief of staff to cabinet minister Rona Ambrose, is betting that tax cuts and tax credits will be the favoured route for

Parliamentarians will return to work Monday after summer break. spending a large portion of the surplus. The Conservatives have found success with relatively inexpensive but popular tax measures such as the children’s fitness credit and deductions for tradespeople who purchase tools. “What you’re seeing here is the struggle that is a happy one to have — what kind of tax breaks do we offer that is the most politically expedient?” said Austin, a senior advisor with Summa Strategies. “I think the bulk of the surplus will be given back in terms of tax cuts, but there will be some healthy sprinkling of programming.” Tom Mulcair has already started talking about how a NDP government would set spending priorities. At a caucus meeting in Edmonton last week, he promised to institute a national childcare plan and to raise the minimum wage for federal workers to $15 per

hour. As far as the surplus goes, he said he’s got a specific recommendations for where the Conservatives should be spending it. “If there’s any surplus, it should be used to reinstate any money cut from the health-care system,” Mulcair said in an interview Sunday, noting the premiers have pegged the amount of the funding cuts at $36 billion over 10 years. “We’d reinstate the veterans offices the Conservatives cut, and return the age of eligibility for Old Age Security to 65.” Mulcair will be tackling a spending debacle of another kind on Parliament Hill. He’s fighting a decision by a Commons committee that the NDP must repay millions associated with mail-outs and satellite offices paid for through MPs’ parliamentary budgets.

REGINA — Memories of the three Mounties fatally shot by a gunman in Moncton, N.B., last June were at the forefront of an annual service honouring officers killed in the line of duty on Sunday. The names of Constables Dave Ross, Fabrice Gevaudan and Douglas Larche were inscribed on a cenotaph, honour roll and memorial wall plaques at the force’s training academy during the National Memorial Service. Family members of the slain officers shared emotional memories. Dan Larche Jr. described how family was the focal point of his late brother Douglas’ life, and he “beamed” watching his three daughters growing up. Being a Mountie was more than a job to Douglas Larche, his brother told the service. ”He was very proud to be a member of the RCMP, to have a second family, to serve his Moncton community in whatever way he could or was asked to.” Angela Gevaudan, the widow of Fabrice Gevaudan, reminisced about letters she received from her husband’s classmates at the academy and the common thread they shared. “Fab was the runner in the troop, he always finished first, but would circle back to also finish last, he never left anyone behind, that’s the kind of person he was,” Angela Gevaudan, who was joined by her daughter Emma, told the service. ”One night, I was crying, thinking about how incredible he was,” she said, her voice cracking. Among the dignitaries who attended the service were RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson and Saskatchewan Lt. Gov. Vaughn Solomon.

CANADA Academics call for moratorium on CRA audit Large police presence in SW Ontario after shooting near a wildlife area CENTRAL HURON, Ont. — A heavy police presence descended on a quiet farming community in southwestern Ontario on Sunday after a man was fatally shot near a wildlife conservation area, leaving some residents bewildered and looking for answers. The man died in a shooting around 5 p.m. Saturday on the outskirts of Clinton, in the municipality of Central Huron, Ontario Provincial Police said in a release issued Sunday afternoon. Jamie Stanley, a spokesman for the Huron OPP, said residents should “be aware of their personal safety at all times.” Investigators also set up a command post at the scene, Stanley said in an email. “We have numerous resources involved in trying to determine who is responsible for this shooting,” he said, adding it was too early in the investigation “to discuss specific details related to the victim or other involved persons.” Central Huron Mayor Jim Ginn said police cordoned off a large area outside on the outskirts of town. In the ensuing confusion, some residents and some media outlets reported that residents were ordered to stay inside with their doors locked, but both Ginn and police said that was never the case. “They’re not asking people to stay indoors at this point, but to be a little more cautious,” Ginn said Sunday. He explained that a town siren that went off Saturday night, which some residents took as a signal to remain indoors, was connected to an unrelated fire. Yvonne McLean, who lives on a hobby farm close to the Hullett Wildlife Conservation Area, said she watched as police cruisers sped past through the night on Saturday. She said many officers remained on watch on Sunday.

OPEN LETTER SAYS GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO SILENCE ITS CRITICS BY THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA — More than 400 academics are demanding the Canada Revenue Agency halt its audit of a think-tank, saying the Conservative government is trying to intimidate, muzzle and silence its critics. In an open letter, the group defends the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, a left-leaning think-tank that was targeted for a political-activity audit partly because it was deemed by the agency to be biased and one-sided. The letter says the centre is internationally respected, conducting its research in a “fair and unbiased way,” and that its frequent criticisms of government policies does not make it a partisan organization. The group is calling for a moratorium on political-activity audits of think-tanks until the tax agency adopts a neutral and fair selection process. One of the group’s organizers, economist Mario Seccareccia at the University of Ottawa, says the letter tapped into enormous frustration with the Conservative government’s perceived hostility toward academic research. “It’s an environment that has been rather stifling when it comes to intellectual work,” he said in an interview. “There’s a real malaise. ... They’ve been irritating a lot of people.” Earlier this month, The Canadian Press reported on an internal tax agency document that outlined the rationale for auditing the Ottawa-based Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives, registered as an educational charity. The document said the research and education material on the centre’s website appears to be “biased” and “one-sided,” and triggered a political-activity audit in October last year. The centre is among 52 charities currently targeted in a $13.4-million program launched in 2012 to determine whether any are violating a rule that limits their spending on political activities to 10 per cent of resources. Auditors also want to see whether any charities are engaging in forbidden partisan activities, such as endorsing candidates for public office. The first wave of such audits included

environmental groups that have been critical of the Conservative government’s energy and pipeline policies, but the net was later widened to include poverty, international aid and human-rights groups who are also often critical of policy. The new audit program has led to what has been dubbed “advocacy chill,” as some groups self-censor to avoid aggravating auditors. The audits are also draining scarce resources, especially through spending on legal fees. Revenue Minister Kerry-Lynne Findlay has said the tax agency’s political-activity audits are conducted at arm’s length, without her input. Agency officials say their targeting decisions are neutral, non-partisan and balanced. The open letter, addressed to Findlay, says the government appears to have singled out a think-tank that frequently criticizes the Conservative agenda. “We are therefore left with the conclusion that the decision to audit the CCPA is politically motivated to intimidate and silence its criticisms of your government policies,” says the text, endorsed by 424 academics by Sunday afternoon. “Instead of trying to muzzle and impede sound and legitimate research, it is now time for you to try to promote more effectively the public good in the form of sound critical research for which Canadian researchers are respected internationally.” Organizer Louis-Philippe Rochon, an economist at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ont., says endorsements for the letter arrived quickly from across the country and across disciplines. “It hit a raw nerve amongst academics,” Rochon said in an email. “The idea that if we reach a conclusion other than the official doctrine of the government, our research is somehow biased and political.” Most think-tanks in Canada are registered as educational charities to allow tax breaks for their donors. Two right-leaning think-tanks, the C.D. Howe Institute and the

Macdonald-Laurier Institute, have confirmed they are not currently undergoing CRA political-activity audits. Two others — the Fraser Institute and the Montreal Economic Institute — have declined to comment. The Atlantic Institute for Market Studies in Halifax has not responded to questions. Asked about the academics’ letter, a spokesman for Findlay said Sunday that registered charities reported more than $14 billion in tax-receipted gifts in 2012. “Therefore, the Canada Revenue Agency has a responsibility to taxpayers to protect the integrity of the charitable sector, and ensure registered charities remain compliant,” Carter Mann said in an email. “CRA audits occur at arm’s length from the government and are conducted free of any political interference. Our government is committed to ensuring that our tax system is fair for all Canadians.”

A REBOOT?

Former police officer to become next premier of Newfoundland and Labrador ST. JOHN’S, N.L. — Paul Davis became leader of Newfoundland and Labrador’s governing Tories on Saturday but not before a strange twist at a delegated convention split the embattled party in half. Progressive Conservatives who voted to elect the man who will become the province’s 12th premier had to go to an unexpected third ballot after support fractured in a virtual tie on the second ballot. In the end, Davis won 351 of 677 ballots cast compared to 326 for John Ottenheimer. Davis in his victory speech urged members to prepare together for the battle ahead against the surging Opposition Liberals. “Coming out of this convention our party is, and has to remain, united and focused and with mutual goals and vision in mind. And I want to assure the people of Newfoundland and Labrador that we are here to govern in their best interests. “We all came here yesterday supporting our individual candidates. And today we leave as one united team.” Time will tell how easily leadership rifts will mend. The decision by party electoral officers to declare that the second ballot was short of a clear majority stoked frustration and had some delegates openly arguing with each other. Davis had won 340 votes compared to 339 for Ottenheimer.

SMILE COOKIES ON SALE NOW

It is a sweet fundraiser that makes cookie lovers smile. The annual Smile cookie campaign starts at participating Tim Hortons restaurants in Red Deer today. Proceeds from the cookie sales go to Bright Start, an early intervention program that gives needy public school children a headstart in pre-kindergarten. Last year, restaurant owners and their patrons helped raise more than $25,000 for the program, which is supported by the Foundation for Red Deer Public Schools. The specially made chocolate chunk cookie with the big smiles on them will be on sale until Sept. 21. For more information, visit http://www.timhortons. com/ca/en/social/smilecookies.php.

Even if he didn’t finish the Marathon of Hope, Terry Fox said others needed to continue what he had started. While the words were spoken at the Scarborough Civic Centre on July 10, 1980, Red Deerians did just that on Sunday at the 34th annual Terry Fox Run. Over $14,000 was raised for cancer research by roughly 335 participants gathered at Heritage Ranch, about $8,000 shy of the 2013 total. Despite the drop in money raised, participants and organizers alike were pleased with what they had accomplished. “We’re really happy. It was a beautiful day,” said Run organizer Loretta Winia. “It’s a great family event and we are proud of the fact that there is no minimum pledge and

no registration fee.” Cyclists, rollerbladers, runners and walkers gathered at the ranch for the noon start time, before being lead through a quick warm up. Shortly after, they made their way through 10 kilometres of the city’s trail system, passing through Bower Ponds before crossing the Canadian Pacific Railway Bridge and heading back to where they began. Nine other such runs happened in Central Alberta, and over 80 throughout the province. In May of 2014 the Terry Fox Foundation said over $650 million had been raised for cancer research in Terry’s name through the run in close to 25 countries worldwide.

DAWE RUN GOES TUESDAY More than 2,000 students are expected to lace up their sneakers for a threekm fun run across the river on Tuesday. Children from Grades 4 to 12 will run in age-appropriate waves along city trails. The Dawe/ St. Patrick’s Run starts at 11:30 a.m. at Heritage Ranch and ends at Bower Ponds. In case of inclement weather, the run will be postponed until Sept. 23.

RDRWA BREAKFAST The upcoming Red Deer River Watershed Alliance Ambassador Breakfast features a talk from Ken Lewis, Red Deer County conservation co-ordinator. Lewis will talk about the county’s implementation of the Alternative Land Use Services program, a program that encourages sustainable agriculture and environmental stewardship by paying farmers and ranchers. The breakfast is scheduled for Sept. 19 from 7:30 to 8:45 a.m. at the Quality Inn North Hill, at 7150 50th Ave. The breakfast costs $15 per person.

Will phones be the new wallets? APPLE PAY MAY BE THE TIPPING POINT BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Apple wants the plastic credit card to become as rare as the paper check. On Tuesday, the company announced Apple Pay, a digital payment system that lets people pay for retail store purchases using their phones rather than cash or credit cards. The service, which will work both with iPhones and Apple’s new Watch, is backed by a host of big retailers, along with most major banks and credit card issuers, including Visa, MasterCard and American Express. So-called contactless payment isn’t new. Starbucks, McDonald’s, PayPal, Google and Square offer their own services, but only a small portion of customers use them. Some experts believe Apple Pay —with its presence on millions of iPhones and its advanced security features— could be the service that leads to widespread adoption of the digital wallet. Citi Investment Research analyst Mark May believes the sum total of mobile payments could grow from $1 billion in 2013 to $58.4 billion by 2017. Payment digitization paints an enticing vision of shopping’s future: simply tap your device against a checkout screen and walk away with your new shoes. But despite the flashy Apple Pay launch, Apple faces challenges making that vision a reality. The company and other digital wallet providers must convince shoppers that the transactions are safe —especially in the wake of recent high-profile data breaches at Home Depot and Target. Meanwhile, the company must also make a case to retailers that it’s worth it for them to invest in new point-of-sale systems. Many U.S. merchants still aren’t sold on the idea. About 220,000 stores are set up to accept Apple Pay. That’s only 5.5 per cent of the 3.6 million retail locations in the U.S., according to the National Retail Federation. The biggest U.S. retailers, including WalMart and Best Buy, are not participating in Apple Pay. The main reason is cost. Each pointof-sale device, which uses something called near-field communication technology, costs hundreds of dollars, plus hours of worker training. And there’s been little customer demand for the systems.

Apple CEO Tim Cook introduces the new Apple Pay product in Cupertino, Calif. last week. Some experts believe Apple Pay, with its presence on millions of iPhones and its advanced security features, could be the service that leads to widespread adoption of the so-called mobile wallet. That may change now that Apple has entered the arena, says Gartner analyst Avivah Litan. “There’s no doubt young people want to use phones to make payments, but they have to have a place to pay,” says Litan. She predicts bigger retailers will see how well Apple partners like McDonald’s do before they move into mobile payments. “If it goes well at other retailers, Wal-Mart and other companies may break down and start taking it,” Litan says. In countries such as Canada and the U.K., contactless point-of-sale systems are widespread, and as a result, such payments are far more common. In Canada, for instance, about 20 per cent of transactions at registers processed by MasterCard are completed by contactless payment, according to MasterCard. “What you learn from that is when consumers start ’tapping’ two or three

Domestic investors can miss global opportunities Investors generally tend to have a domestic bias and often are more comfortable putting their money into companies and assets in their own countries. While that can be a good strategy, global markets these days are presenting investors with great opportunities that they may be missing out on for fear of branching out into unknown TALBOT parts of the BOGGS world. “Ultimately, the goals of the individual dictate where they go in terms of investments: the important thing is to have a well-diversified portfolio geographically,” said Pat Connor, an investment adviser with Edward Jones in Ottawa. “As humans, it is natural to gravitate to the familiar, but unfortunately the Canadian market is reasonably narrow with financials, energy and materials making up three quarters of the market. If you want more exposure than that, you’ve got to go beyond our borders, and sometimes that makes investors uncomfortable.” While international markets offer Canadian investors a myriad of opportunities, political and economic factors abroad can have a big impact on how foreign markets perform. Investors, then, are well advised to seek professional advice to help them navigate foreign territories and choose investment options that are best suited to specific markets. “People will often make investment decisions based on the headlines they see in the paper,” said Connor. “A good adviser needs to be strong and not just say what the client wants to hear to make them feel good, but give them good guidance.” Both BMO Bank of Montreal and Royal Bank are predicting growth and opportunities in foreign markets for the rest of the year. In its summer 2014 global investment outlook, Royal Bank said the global economy will continue to gain traction for the rest of the year, led by North America and other developed markets. “Our key economic theme remains

MONEYWISE

that of accelerating growth in 2014 for much of the developed world,” the report said. “Stock markets continue to rise and are now approaching fair value in many parts of the world. Despite recent strong performance, valuations remain reasonable and history indicates that stock markets frequently continue to rise long after they have hit equilibrium.” A panel of financial and investment experts from BMO recently concluded that the outlook for North America is reasonably good for the rest of the year, as is the outlook for emerging markets such as India, Brazil, Thailand and Turkey. The prospects for Europe, however, are not so rosy because many European countries are experiencing high unemployment and are saddled with high debt. The worst is Greece, which is approaching debt of 190 per cent of gross domestic product, but also Italy, Portugal, Ireland and Spain. And tension between Russia and Ukraine is a major concern for investors that is affecting markets. Connor said it’s easy for investors to get caught up in all the noise of investing — a lot of facts and figures and specifics that may not, in the long run, be all that important. What is important is to keep your eye on your investment goals and adjust your portfolio accordingly. Let the fund managers and other experts sort through all the political, economic and investment data and come to their conclusions. “Investors generally are fairly comfortable with North America but beyond that their familiarity diminishes greatly,” Connor said. Rajiv Silgardo, co-CEO of BMO Global Asset Management, recommends investors consider using both active and passive investments through mutual funds and ETFs (exchange traded funds) for foreign markets and seek the advice of a global investing specialist. “A global asset manager who offers a comprehensive range of solutions powered by global insights and expertise can help identify opportunities in various types of market cycles,” Silgardo said. Talbot Boggs is a Toronto-based business communications professional who has worked with national news organizations, magazines and corporations in the finance, retail, manufacturing and other industrial sectors.

times, they never go back to their old behaviour at that merchant. ... It’s just a much better experience,” says Ed McLaughlin, chief emerging payments officer at MasterCard. One of the strengths of Apple Pay is its security. Its system uses the company’s Touch ID fingerprint technology, a secure chip, and payments that require a one-time security code. That kind of security — similar to the chip-and-pin credit card system used in Europe — would prevent the type of breaches that happened at Target and Home Depot. And it could be a compelling reason for retailers to adopt Apple Pay, Litan says. “If you get enough people using the service, it would cut down on retailers’ security costs, and that’s why over time it may really take off,” she says. Still, not everyone is convinced that swiping a credit or debit card is that much of an inconvenience in the first place. Bill Ready, head of next gen-

eration commerce at PayPal, points out that near-field communication has been around for 10 years without catching on. His vision of the mobile payment future is more akin to an “ecommerce style transaction happening in the physical world,” he says, citing the example of car-sharing service Uber, which works with PayPal to processes riders’ payments by way of a mobile phone app. “Uber addressed a real pain point, in that hailing a taxi and payment for a taxi is cumbersome,” he says. “We’re focused on those types of things more than killing the card swipe.” Even amid the differing visions, most experts agree that the march toward the digitization of payment will continue. “Someone is going to figure out how to make mobile payments easy and cheap and then we’re talking a real shift in consumer behaviour,” says Gartner’s Litan.

for the lawmakers from leaving the bank. LANA said that a total of 94 lawmakers out of 102 who attended Sunday’s session voted to fire al-Sadek al-Kabeir, who had punished his own deputy for allowing the transfers. The deputy, Ali al-Habri, will now take up the post. It was unclear if any funds have already been transferred from the bank. Libya currently has two rival parliaments and governments. One is elected but based in Tobruk, where it moved after militias took control of the country’s two largest cities. The second is the previous parliament in Tripoli, which is backed by Islamist-allied militias.

BRIEF Samsung accuses senior executives of domestic rival LG of vandalizing its washing machines SEOUL, South Korea — Samsung Electronics Co. has accused senior executives of domestic rival LG Electronics Inc. of intentionally vandalizing its washing machines at retail stores in Germany and has asked for an official investigation. In a statement Sunday, Samsung said it had asked the Seoul Central District Prosecutors’ Office to investigate executives from a Korean company who were seen as damaging its washing machines displayed at shopping malls in Berlin. A Samsung spokesman confirmed that the Korean company referred to was LG. “The people in question have been implicated in deliberately destroying Samsung washing machines displayed at retail stores in Berlin, Germany, where, at the time, the annual IFA electronics trade show was underway,” Samsung’s statement said. “It is very unfortunate that Samsung had to request that a high-ranking executive be investigated by the nation’s legal authorities, but this was inevitable ... the truth must be revealed for the sake of fostering fair competition.” LG Electronics denied Samsung’s claim. It said in a statement that while it is true that some of its executives and staff, including a president, had visited a Berlin store and looked at various products, it is common for its employees to examine rival company’s products abroad. LG said the model in question had weak hinges, but it did not say whether its executives had damaged the products. Samsung said LG tarnished both its brand image and the reputation of its employees with claims that its washing machines were defective.

Hundreds of workers walk off job at Lear Corp. site, which could disrupt Chicago Ford plant INDIANAPOLIS — Hundreds of workers protesting what some are calling fast-food-like wages walked off the job Saturday at a Lear Corp. plant in northwest Indiana that makes automotive seats, beginning a strike that could affect a major Ford assembly plant in Chicago. The plant, about 28 miles southeast of Chicago in Hammond, employs 760 workers making seats for the Explorer and Taurus models produced at Ford’s Chicago Assembly Plant. The Ford plant could be vulnerable to any serious supply chain disruption because it operates on a just-in-time basis, meaning it receives parts sometimes just hours before installing them in vehicles rather than warehousing them on site. Saturday’s strike shut down the Lear plant, according to a statement from the United Auto Workers. All the plant’s workers walked off the job after two months of contract negotiations. About 200 workers wearing jackets and scarves or caps to ward off the chilly Midwest breeze were walking the picket line Saturday, said UAW Local 2335 Vice-President Hanif Hassan, who has worked at the plant for 12 years. The Associated Press left a phone message Saturday seeking comment from a Lear spokesman. Workers say they agreed to a twotiered pay system that capped wages at $16 an hour for newer hires as a way to help the company as it came out of bankruptcy, but that wages haven’t kept pace with the company’s recovery. Most of the workers at the plant are on the lower-tier wage level, Hassan said. “The two-tier system allowed the auto industry to recover from that situation, and they have recovered. They’ve recovered well.” Hassan said.

Volatile week expected for the markets TRADERS LOOK TO U.K. REFERENDUM, FED MEETING BY THE CANADIAN PRESS

If Scotland votes for independence, prepare for a messy divorce BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON — How do you divorce after a 300-year union? It’s complicated, and there is a deadline. If Scots vote yes to separation on Thursday, a clock starts ticking down to March 24, 2016 — the independence day declared by the Scottish government. The British and Scottish administrations have agreed that they will recognize the outcome of the referendum and appoint negotiators to work out the details of separation “in the best interests of the people of Scotland and of the rest of the United Kingdom.” But there is disagreement on many issues, and only 18 months to redraft laws, establish international agreements and work out relationships with international organizations. Robert Hazell, head of the Constitution Unit at University College London, says that is an “impossible timetable,” and estimates it could take up to three years to hammer out the details. Some of the key issues: DIVIDING THE ASSETS The Yes and No campaigns have very different assessments of Scotland’s financial picture, including its share of Britain’s national debt and North Sea oil reserves. The pro-independence Scottish government says Scotland would be entitled to 90 per cent of Britain’s oil wealth — based on divvying up the two countries’ waters — but only liable for about 8 per cent of its 1.3 trillion pound ($2.1 trillion) national debt, based on its share of the U.K. population. The British government disputes this, pointing out that Scotland has higher per capita public-sector spending than England and so is more indebted. Scottish independence leader Alex Salmond has signalled he could play hardball. COUNTRY CLUBS Salmond says that Scotland wants to remain in the United Nations, the European Union and NATO, and he anticipates little difficulty in keeping those seats. Opponents say re-admission cannot be guaranteed. NATO, in particular, may be perturbed by Salmond’s promise to remove nuclear weapons from Scottish territory. That’s not so much a problem for Scotland — nuclear weapons are not a membership requirement — as for Britain, whose entire nuclear arsenal is based aboard submarines at the Faslane naval base in western Scotland. Adm. Mark Stanhope, a former head of the Royal Navy, has said that moving the weapons “would add a dangerous period of destabilization in our nuclear defence posture at a time when the international picture is clearly deteriorating.” The Royal United Services Institute, a military think-tank, estimates that moving the weapons could cost several billion pounds (dollars) and take until 2028. In the shorter term, Salmond may seek to use the base as a bargaining chip in negotiations with Britain. Opponents of independence also say the loss of Scotland would sharply reduce Britain’s clout on the world stage. It could endanger its place in the G-7 group of wealthy industrialized nations and its seat on the United Nations Security Council, although Salmond says Scotland would support Britain in efforts to keep the security council seat.

D I L B E R T

THE CURRENCY QUESTION The day after an independence vote, the pound sterling will remain Scotland’s official currency. The Scottish government wants to keep it in the long term as well — as a key prop of stability amid the uncertainty independence would bring. British officials and bankers say it’s not that simple. Bank of England governor Mark Carney has said that “a currency union is incompatible with sovereignty.” Salmond thinks the British government is bluffing. He says “a commonsense agreement on a common currency” is in everyone’s best interest. Another unknown is whether businesses will pull out of Scotland. Financial institutions including the Royal Bank of Scotland and insurance giant Standard Life have announced plans to transfer some operations south of the border to ensure they remain part of British tax and currency systems. Salmond says these are administrative measures and that the firms will keep most of their thousands of jobs in Scotland — but only time will tell. DRAWING A BORDER At the moment only a blue-andwhite billboard informs motorists and train passengers that they have passed from England into Scotland, and border checks will not be set up the day after an independence vote. Salmond said there is “no danger” of such border formalities, saying Scotland would become part of the passport-free Common Travel Area Britain operates with the Channel Islands and the Republic of Ireland. He says Scotland, like Britain, will be a member of the EU. But opponents say membership cannot be guaranteed; countries such as Spain, that face strong secessionist movements, may be uneasy about quick recognition. If Scotland remains outside the EU — or if Britain leaves, as some London politicians wish — there may be no alternative to border checks. Britain could also take umbrage if Scotland adopts much more liberal immigration policies. Scots will be getting different passports if they opt for independence, even if they don’t need them to cross the border. The Scottish government says all British citizens living in Scotland will automatically be considered Scottish citizens, as will Scotland-born Britons who live elsewhere. They will be able to apply for Scottish passports from independence day in 2016, and would be allowed to retain dual Scottish and British nationality. KEEPING THE QUEEN One thing both sides agree on — Queen Elizabeth II will continue to be the Scottish monarch after independence. Scotland and England shared a monarch for a century before they united politically in 1707, and the queen remains head of state in Canada, Australia and several other former British colonies. The queen will keep her Balmoral estate in Scotland, the royal family’s traditional summer-vacation destination. Many other symbols of state are up for grabs. Scotland will likely adopt the Saltire, a blue-and-white flag that already flies alongside the Union Jack over government buildings in Edinburgh. The red, white and blue British flag combines the emblems of its member regions, including England’s red-andwhite Cross of St. George and Scotland’s blue. A redesign of the iconic banner may be in order.

Bill to overhaul how chemicals are regulated faces uphill battle in U.S. Senate BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — Efforts to come up with a new chemical regulation bill face an uphill battle in the Senate. Over the summer, Sens. Tom Udall, D-N.M., and David Vitter of Louisiana, the top Republican on the Senate Environmental and Public Works Committee, provided a revised draft of their chemical regulation bill to committee chairwoman Barbara Boxer, who told The Associated Press this week that the draft still falls short. The original bill had been panned by some environmental groups, such as Safer Chemicals, Healthy Families, who assailed it as “phoney reform,” although the Environmental Defence Fund supported its introduction as a chance for an eventual breakthrough. At stake is a rewrite of the 1976 Toxic Substances Control Act, known as TSCA, which is widely seen as an ineffective law to protect Americans from harmful chemicals. While the new Senate draft hasn’t been released publicly, Udall told the AP that it makes “big progress” in the safety standard; protections for vulnerable populations, such as pregnant women, infants, children and workers; and strong deadlines for the EPA to work through chemicals. One area that remains outstanding, Udall said, is how much federal law should take precedence over state regulations, which negotiators will turn to next. States such as California, which

SEPTEMBER 22 - 23, 2014

have come up with their own regulations in the absence of federal action, have warned that the language in the bill could jeopardize dozens of California laws and regulations. Boxer, a Democrat from California, said that the latest draft is still too sweeping in its nullification of state regulations. Udall agreed that the preemption language in the original bill is much too broad and needs to be narrowed. The attempt to come up with new chemical regulation legislation has shifted from a Democratic bill, the Safe Chemicals Act in the previous session of Congress, to the industrybacked bipartisan Chemical Safety Improvement Act. The American Chemistry Council, a trade group which represents such chemical powerhouses as Dow, DuPont, BASF Corp. and 3M, says that reforming TSCA is its top legislative priority. The ACC spent nearly $6 million in lobbying expenses in the first half of the year. Udall said that while he supported the Safe Chemicals Act, “without any bipartisan support and (with) wholesale industry opposition it simply couldn’t move forward. A new approach was needed that could get the support needed to actually get it to the president’s desk.” “The new draft is a giant leap forward from the last one,” Udall added. “And most important is that it is a huge improvement compared to the law as it stands now, and as it has stood since 1976.”

YES campaigner Bobby Docherty demonstrates outside the BBC building in Glasgow, Scotland, Sunday Throughout the country houses are divided over the issue of separation from the UK with younger voters more inclined to back Yes and the older generation in favor of the union in Thursday’s landmark vote.

Stock markets are in for a volatile time this week as traders look to the U.S. Federal Reserve for hints about whether the central bank will hike interest rates before the middle of next year and a referendum that will decide whether Scotland leaves the United Kingdom. “A lot of volatility, I think, this week,” said Andrew Pyle, senior wealth adviser and portfolio manager at ScotiaMcLeod in Peterborough, Ont. “Flip a coin — do I watch what the Scots are doing or do I try to figure out what the Fed is doing?” Markets have generally come around to the view that the Fed will up rates sometime next year, likely in mid-2015. Rates have been near zero since the financial collapse of 2008. But the economy has improved to a point where it is thought the U.S. central bank can finally act and now traders are wondering if the Fed could move even earlier. Specifically, they will be looking at the statement released by the Fed at the end of its planned one-day meeting on Wednesday to see if there has been a change in key language. For some time, the Fed has reassured markets that “it likely will be appropriate to maintain the current target range for the federal funds rate for a considerable time after the asset purchase program ends.” That quantitative easing program is widely expected to end at the end of October when the Fed finally ends its monthly bond purchases. Pyle said at some point the Fed will adopt a more hawkish tone on interest rates and remove that language. “However, it’s not clear that that meeting is next week’s meeting,” he said. Meanwhile, after largely ignoring the Scottish independence referendum campaign, markets were jolted to attention last week in the wake of a poll that showed the race is now too close to call. And that has created much uncertainty about how trading desks will react the morning after. “No one seems to know what’s going

to happen here. Do they take their own currency?” asked Pyle. “I don’t think it’s going to be earth shattering. Essentially, global capital markets — do they really care a bunch of Scots want to leave the union versus what is going on in Ukraine and whether the Fed hints at a rate hike in January? Those are the bigger issues right now.” Uncertainty about the Fed and the referendum made for tepid stock markets last week, where the TSX shed 0.24 per cent per cent while the Dow industrials lost 0.87 per cent. But the Canadian dollar had a dreadful week, losing 1.76 U.S. cents to a five-month low of 90.14 cents US as the greenback appreciated on Fed rate speculation and uncertainty about the future of the U.K. At the same time, lower oil prices are also having an impact on the commodity-sensitive loonie. “One thing that has happened is that oil prices have slipped from over $100 pretty consistently through the summer. We’re at the low 90s now and that’s an under-appreciated fact for Canada that we have become more and more a bit of a one trick pony on energy,” said Mark Chandler, head of Canadian FIC strategy at RBC Dominion Securities. On the economic front, markets will look to the August reading on Canadian inflation. Statistics Canada is expected to report Friday that the index was flat last month following a 0.2 per cent dip in July, leaving the annualized rate at 2.1 per cent. Manufacturing shipments data for July will be released on Tuesday. CIBC said in a commentary that it expects shipments to rise by a solid 1.4 per cent, boosted by a strong auto sector. In the U.S., investors will consider CPI data for August on Wednesday. A flat CPI showing is also expected in the U.S. following a 0.1 per cent increase in July. This would leave the American inflation rate at an annualized rate of 1.9 per cent. The August reading on housing starts will be released on Thursday and CIBC said it is looking for starts to ease to an annualized pace of 1.045 million following a strong gain in July.

Benedict Cumberbatch stars as famed computer science pioneer Alan Turing in ‘The Imitation Game.’

‘The Imitation Game’ takes top prize at TIFF BY THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO — A biopic starring Benedict Cumberbatch as an ingenious British codebreaker and computer-science pioneer Alan Turing has won the top prize at the Toronto International Film Festival. Director Morten Tyldum’s The Imitation Game claimed the coveted Grolsch People’s Choice Award at a Sunday morning brunch, held annually to mark the end of the 11-day movie marathon. The film, which also stars Oscar nominee Keira Knightley and Matthew Goode, beat out first runner-up Learning to Drive — a dramedy about the unlikely friendship between Patricia Clarkson’s newly separated book editor and her driving instructor, played by Ben Kingsley — and second runnerup St. Vincent, which stars Bill Murray as the cantankerous caretaker of a young boy. The crowd-pleasing The Imitation Game, however, simply proved too compelling in a tough-to-predict year in which there was no clear front-runner for the festival’s top award. “It’s a terrific story and it’s a story that’s not that well-known,” festival artistic director Cameron Bailey said of the winning film following the announcement. “You’ve got terrific direction — Morten Tyldum was here before with Headhunters — and one of the best actors and stars in the world right now in Benedict Cumberbatch.” Surely, The Imitation Game has now solidified its position in a rapidly developing Oscar race. After all, three of the past six People’s Choice Award winners have gone

on to win best picture, including The King’s Speech, Slumdog Millionaire and last year’s victor, 12 Years a Slave. And Cumberbatch, the lanky and incisively articulate Brit best-known for starring on Sherlock, certainly seemed to be in the midst of a moment at this year’s festival. A year after the 38-yearold unveiled three separate films at the Toronto festival (including 12 Years a Slave, in which he had a small role), he was one of the most in-demand stars here. Frenzied fans packed the streets surrounding the premiere of The Imitation Game while Cumberbatch signed autographs and posed for selfies. But it was the real-life character he portrayed who seemed to deeply resonate with audiences, said Bailey. Aside from being a pivotal figure in bringing the Second World War to an end, Turing made endlessly innovative contributions to the future of personal computing. The story, of course, featured a personal wrinkle: Turing tried to conceal his sexual orientation but was ultimately prosecuted for homosexuality (then a crime) in 1952, before dying two years later. “(This is) a man whose mind was instrumental in helping to end the Second World War early, who is one of the fathers of the computers that we all use today, and we don’t know much about him,” Bailey offered. “The fact that he had to suffer as a result of his sexual orientation also is a drama that I think deserves to be told. This is a story with a lot of great elements to it.” Added Laurie May, co-president of the film’s distributor Elevation Pic-

tures: “He invented computers and he saved the world and he was an underdog. “You put those elements together on film and execute it the way it was executed, and of course audiences are going to respond.”

Rebels fall in pre-season finale BY GREG MEACHEM ADVOCATE SPORTS EDITOR

Photo by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Chicago Bears cornerback Kyle Fuller (23) intercepts a pass intended for San Francisco 49ers tight end Derek Carrier during the fourth quarter of an NFL football game in Santa Clara, Calif., Sunday.

Bears battle back in fourth quarter to down 49ers BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Bears 28 49ers 20 SANTA CLARA, Calif. — Down big, Jay Cutler kept his poise on the road while Colin Kaepernick struggled in prime time. Cutler passed for three fourth-quarter touchdowns after much of Chicago’s starting defence went down, and the Bears beat the San Francisco 49ers 28-20 Sunday night to spoil their Levi’s Stadium debut. “We just kept plugging, we knew we had some good stuff,” Cutler said. “We just had to figure them out.” Cutler threw three TD passes to Brandon Marshall, two in the wild fourth quarter, as Chicago erased a 13-point deficit and quieted the sellout crowd. Cutler threw for two scores in a 27-second span early in the final period, aided by the gutsy play of a backup cornerback. Kyle Fuller made two late interceptions for the depleted

Chicago secondary, and the first set up the go-ahead score. “Just coming in here, working hard, it was a team win,” said Fuller, the Bears’ firstround pick in this year’s draft. “We are thankful for that and will keep on building.” Kaepernick was hit with an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty for “inappropriate language” following Fuller’s first big play. That gave the Bears first-and-goal on the 3, and Cutler threw a 3-yard TD pass to Martellus Bennett as the Bears went ahead 21-20. Kaepernick threw three interceptions in all, lost a fumble and his cool, a far cry from his breakout start on the Monday night stage nearly two years ago in a rout of the Bears. Cutler sat out that night with a concussion. A sloppy game filled with 26 penalties — 16 by the Niners — and a crazy collapse overshadowed the fanfare of the regular-season debut for the sparkling $1.2 billion stadium. The Bears (1-1), in a stretch with six of eight games on the

NFL ROUNDUP B5 road, go home with some serious momentum despite injuries on both sides of the ball. Five key defenders are hurt: cornerbacks Sherrick McManis (quadriceps) and Charles Tillman (triceps), defensive end Trevor Scott (foot), safety Chris Conte (shoulder) and defensive tackle Jeremiah Ratliff (concussion). The 49ers (1-1) had a 17-7 halftime lead, but missed an opportunity to grab an early lead in the NFC West after the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks lost earlier in the day at San Diego. Michael Crabtree caught a touchdown pass on his 27th birthday and Frank Gore ran for a score but also had his 54-yard TD burst negated by Anquan Boldin’s costly holding penalty. Cutler helped the Bears get on the board with a 25-yard run late in the first half.

Oilers prospects hoping to compete for roster spot NURSE, MOROZ WANT TO GIVE THE OILERS SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT AT TRAINING CAMP BY THE CANADIAN PRESS PENTICTON, B.C. — Darnell Nurse and Mitchell Moroz want to give the Edmonton Oilers a headache — in a good way. The pair are thought to be on the outside looking in for spots on the club’s NHL roster heading into training camp, but that isn’t stopping either from dreaming big. “I just have to go out there every day and play hard. That’s all you can do,” said Nurse, a slick defenceman with offensive flair. “I’ll get every opportunity that I deserve, so I’ve just got to go out and earn it.” The Oilers appear to have as many eight men pencilled in ahead of Nurse on the blueline depth chart with camp set to open Thursday, while it’s also difficult to see where Moroz might fit on the wing. Still, the pair remain undeterred as they take part in a four-team rookie tournament hosted by the Vancouver Canucks that also includes prospects from the Calgary Flames and Winnipeg Jets. “Expectations might not be for me to make the squad, but if I can surprise some people and make it a hard choice, that’s what I want to do,” said Moroz, an Edmonton native. “Just push. This is your dream to put on this jersey ... my childhood team. It’s an honour to put that logo on every night.” Todd Nelson coaches the

Oklahoma City Barons, the Oilers’ AHL affiliate, and is in charge of Edmonton’s rookie team in Penticton. He said part of the rebuild process for an organization that hasn’t made the NHL playoffs since 2006 is a push for jobs from its prospects. “If those young guys can make (Oilers general manager) Craig MacTavish scratch his head about what he wants to do, then that’s perfect,” said Nelson. “That’s what we want. We want competition. These young guys are knocking on the door. They just have to keep on going and put pressure on from below and hopefully those guys up top feel it and they excel at their game and they improve and get better.” The Oilers have drafted a number of forwards with high picks in recent years, including Taylor Hall, Ryan NugentHopkins, Nail Yakupov and Leon Draisaitl, but Nurse’s skillset from the back end is something most successful NHL teams rely on to push the play. But his coach said that ability also hurts the seventh overall pick in 2013 at times. “He always wants to go (on the offensive). You have to pull the reins on him a bit,” said Nelson. “That’s not a bad thing. Usually you have to give a guy a kick in the butt to get going. That’s something that he’s going to have to manage as he matures, and he will. “He’s still a young kid and

he wants to make an impact. Through experience he’s going to settle down and find his game where it’s more controlled.” Nurse, who still needs to fill out some of his six-footfour 205-pound frame, agreed that keeping things simple will help him in the long run. “You have to consistently remind yourself you’re here for a reason,” said the 19-yearold Hamilton, Ont. native, who had 13 goals and 37 assists in 64 games for the OHL’s Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in 201314. “It makes your life a lot easier when you’re not trying to do everyone else’s job.” The six-foot-two 214-pound Moroz, meanwhile, is coming off a Memorial Cup-winning season with the WHL’s Edmonton Oil Kings where he put up 35 goals and 28 assists in 63 games, mostly by going hard to the net and playing with an edge. “You want to represent well,” said the 20-year-old, who was the 32nd pick in 2012. “Coming off the summer you’ve got to find that line and flirt with it a little and not cross it. “You’ve just got to get back to your game.” While both Nurse and Moroz are hopeful of making the Oilers, it would appear the 18-year-old Draisaitl might have the best shot, based purely on need. Edmonton lacks depth at centre, and the third overall pick at June’s draft provides something club

Stamps rally late to down Argos

Riders win streak snap in blowout loss to Ticats BY THE CANADIAN PRESS Tiger-Cats 28 Roughriders 3 HAMILTON, Ont. — Zach Collaros and the Hamilton Tiger-cats created a three-way tie for first place in the CFL’s East Division on Sunday. Collaros threw two touchdown passes and the Tiger-Cats defence shut down the league’s best running game en route to a 28-3 victory over the Saskatchewan Roughriders. “It was a complete football game today in all three phases, which is what you want to see,” said Hamilton head coach Kent Austin. “Especially after a tough loss on the road (38-31 to Montreal in which the Ticats gave up a huge lead). Just tells you about the character in that locker-room and the quality of our guys. We’ve gotten better as a football team. We didn’t have the lulls in this game that we’ve had before. . . And guys are growing up a little bit.” Hamilton (3-7) moves into a threeway tie for first in the East with Toronto and Montreal, who both lost this weekend. And Saskatchewan, missing injured quarterback Darian Durant, saw its league-best winning streak end at seven games. With a record of 8-3, the Riders fall into a share of second spot with Edmonton in the mighty CFL West Division. Collaros threw touchdown passes to Luke Tasker and Terrell Sinkfield scored on a 58-yard punt return for the victory in front of a sell-out crowd of 18,135 fans at Tim Hortons Field. “It feels good to win,” said Collaros, who completed 29 of 36 pass attempts for 287 yards, two TDs and one interception. “I thought the offensive line did a great job all day. That’s a heckuva D-line over there.” Ticat kicker Justin Medlock hit field goals from 50 and 51 yards and added a 57-yard punt single, but hit the left upright in the third quarter from 43 yards out. Saskatchewan kicker Chris Milo hit a 10-yarder on his lone attempt. Hamilton receiver Andy Fantuz

made 11 catches for 108 yards. The Ticats won the battle for time of possession, controlling the ball for 32:13 to Saskatchewan’s 27:47. They had seen that as a key battle in keeping their own defence rested. And that seemed to pay off. The Ticat defence held the Saskatchewan rushing attack to 105 yards — an attack that averaged 150.7 yards per game coming in. Meanwhile, the Roughrider defensive line, that had sacked Collaros 10 times in their first meeting to start the season (a Saskatchewan 31-10 win), only got to him three times. Hamilton’s defence sacked Tino Sunseri five times. Ticats defensive coordinator Orlondo Steinauer said you can plan a defensive strategy, but it’s up to the players to execute it. “What I saw (today) were guys that didn’t want to lose,” he said. “To be honest with you, (I saw) a different level of intensity in their preparation starting early in the week and it just followed all the way through today.” Sunseri, starting in place of Durant, who is expected to be out for the season after tearing a tendon in his right elbow, completed nine of 21 pass attempts for 88 yards, one interception and no touchdowns. Saskatchewan coach Corey Chamblin said the game was a challenge. With the best running game in the league right now and a back-up quarterback running the offence, everybody expected his team to run the ball. The Riders rush about 47 per cent of the time — more than any other team in the league. Heading into the game, they led the league with 1,507 net yards on the ground. But when you’re riding a seven-game win streak, you know it has to eventually end. “When you’ve been winning so long, eventually you have to come down,” Chamblin said. “It’s part of football. There have been lots of games we won but we could have lost. This one, there was a chance when we were down by just 10 points (at the end of the half), but we lost. It’s not stunning. It’s a part of football.”

Toronto Argonauts’ Jermaine Gabriel, right, and Alex Suber, left, try to catch Calgary Stampeders’ Jon Cornish, as he runs in for a touchdown during CFL action in Calgary, Saturday. The Stampeders beat the Argonauts 40-33. Daniel went out in the first quarter. The defensive line was further decimated when end Charleston Hughes and tackle Demonte Bolden left the game in the second half. “Not quite sure,” Hufnagel said when asked of their status. “All those guys are getting MRI’s and we’ll find out tomorrow.” Argos receiver Chad Owens, the CFL’s MOP two years ago, didn’t play

in Calgary because of a leg injury. He’s expected back in the lineup Friday against the B.C. Lions in Vancouver. Durie played Saturday after missing eight games with a broken collarbone. The Stampeders have won nine in a row versus East Division clubs and face the Alouettes in Montreal next Sunday. The Argos will practise in Calgary until Thursday when they depart for Vancouver.

Glenn ends Lions TD drought in win over Blue Bombers BY THE CANADIAN PRESS Lions 26 Blue Bombers 9 VANCOUVER — Kevin Glenn ended the B.C. Lions’ touchdown drought in fine fashion. Glenn threw for 261 yards and two TDs as the Lions downed the Winnipeg Blue Bombers 26-9 on Saturday night at B.C. Place Stadium. “It feels a lot better coming out of the game scoring touchdowns than not scoring touchdowns,’’ said Glenn. The Lions failed to score a touchdown in their 7-5 win a week earlier over Ottawa. And the game before that — a 20-16 loss to Saskatchewan on Aug. 24 — the Lions’ only touchdown was on a punt return by Tim Brown. Glenn, filling in for an injured Travis Lulay, delivered a solid, albeit unspectacular, effort as he completed 20 of 27

A U T O

passes without tossing an interception. Glenn was playing his first game back as B.C.’s starter since Lulay dislocated his shoulder against Ottawa. The Lions (7-4) posted their second consecutive win and took sole possession of fourth place in the West Division. The Bombers (6-6) were relegated to last place following their third straight loss. The Lions evened their home record at 3-3 in front of 27,754 fans at B.C. Place. It was the Lions’ first game back home since club president Dennis Skulsky’s guaranteed win was spoiled in last month’s loss to Saskatchewan, resulting in fans getting free tickets to another game. Despite the Lions using Jermarcus Hardrick, their fifth different starter at left offensive guard this season, Glenn went 14-of-15 in the first half and was only sacked twice.

Stampeders 44 Argonauts 33 CALGARY — The Calgary Stampeders beat the Toronto Argonauts 40-33 with a tremendous second half Saturday, but another starting quarterback in the CFL is injured. Trailing by 19 points at halftime, Calgary rallied with four touchdowns and a pair of two-point converts to remain atop both the CFL and West Division standings at 10-1. Stampeder quarterback Bo Levi Mitchell threw for 198 yards and a pair of touchdowns, but he went down awkwardly on his left leg in the fourth quarter when he was tackled on a fouryard run. Mitchell left the game with just over six minutes remaining and after the game the team learned he suffered a sprained left ankle and a stretched ligament in his knee. He won’t play next Sunday in Montreal. Stampeders coach John Hufnagel says Mitchell’s status is week to week. Drew Tate will get his first start of the season on Sunday. Down eight points when Mitchell went out, backup Drew Tate finished the drive and tied the game with a 15-yard touchdown throw to Jabari Arthur and a two-point convert toss to running back Jon Cornish at 9:53. Cornish scored the winning touchdown and his second of the game on a 30-yard catch-and-run at 13:12. On their final drive, Toronto turned the ball over on a fumble by quarterback Ricky Ray with nine seconds left. “It’s victories like this that really show you how good you can be,” Cornish said. “This is a win, but if we can do things like this in playoffs, that’s what really matters. This was a key learning experience for us.” Mitchell threw touchdown passes to Sederrik Cunningham and Brad Sinopoli before he was injured.

Saskatchewan Roughriders quarterback Darian Durant is expected to miss the rest of the regular season because of an elbow injury suffered last week. Travis Lulay of the B.C. Lions went on the six-game injured list last week with a dislocated shoulder. Calgary’s Matt Walter scored a twopoint convert on a two-yard dash. Stampeder kicker Rene Paredes kicked a 28-yard field goal and Toronto kicker Swayze Waters was good on a 36-yard attempt in front of an announced 28,607 at McMahon Stadium. Ray made touchdown throws to Spencer Watt, Jason Barnes, Trent Guy and Andre Durie. Ray totalled over 300 passing yards in a game for the first time since July 5. The Argos lost momentum, however, because of 128 yards in penalties and three turnovers. “That’s what we’ve been fighting with all year, penalties and turnovers,” Ray said. “Those were our biggest mistakes tonight again. It’s hard to beat anybody in this league when you’re doing that let alone the best team in the league. “Until we get those two areas cleaned up it’s going to be like this, a fight to win football games.” The Argos dropped to 3-8, but remained tied for the East Division lead with the Montreal Alouettes, who lost to Edmonton on Friday. Cornish rushed for 174 yards in the game, including a 79-yard scoring rumble in the third quarter. The CFL’s Most Outstanding Player in 2013 missed six games in July and August with concussion symptoms. Cornish has rushed for a total of 694 yards in four games since his return. “Jon Cornish is a force,” said Hufnagel. “We know that. We want to get him the ball and he did some damage out there.” The victory was costly for Calgary because not only Mitchell was unable to finish the game.

OILERS: Different level Draisaitl had 38 goals and 67 assists in 64 games for the WHL’s Prince Albert Raiders last season and, like Nurse, could remain with the Oilers for a nine-game audition at the start of his season before Edmonton would have to make a decision on whether to keep him or send him back to junior. While there has been lots of chatter about whether or not Draisaitl should break camp with the Oilers, like Nurse and Moroz, all he’s focused on are the details that could help fulfil his dream as early as October. “It’s a different level. That’s why it’s the best league in the world, because every player is a really good hockey player,” he said. “I think once I get used to everything and I get back into game mode I have a pretty good chance.”

56 seconds remaining, but stayed in the game and threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to Marshall, who made a leaping, one-handed catch to pull the ball into his body as he fell into the end zone. What a way for Chicago to forget that bitter 23-20 overtime loss to the Bills at home in Week 1. San Francisco didn’t give the ball away once in a season-opening win at Dallas. In the first half, the 49ers outgained Chicago 197-93 and out-penalized the Bears 10-7 for 85 lost yards. The much-scrutinized field featured visible chunks of loose sod after new grass was laid for a third time since April. Kaepernick made his first career start against the Bears nearly two years ago, and then held onto the No. 1 job over Alex Smith. Cutler didn’t face the 49ers during a November 2012 Monday night game at Candlestick Park. A concussion to now-Chiefs QB Smith thrust Kaepernick into the spotlight that night, and he threw for 243 yards and two touchdowns as the Niners pounded the Bears 32-7. The 49ers were embarrassed at home for the second time in a month. They lost 34-0 in a rout by Denver in the first preseason game in the new stadium.

Teen Hyo-Joo Kim beats Webb to win Evian Championship BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS EVIAN-LES-BAINS, France — Going up against a seventime major winner more than twice her age, it was teenager Hyo-Joo Kim who showed the calm nerves of a veteran. Kim came from a shot back on the last hole to beat Australian great Karrie Webb by one shot on Sunday and win the Evian Championship, becoming the third youngest major winner at 19 years, 2 months. The South Korean trailed the 39-year-old Webb heading into the 18th but turned the tables with a birdie from 12 feet out. Webb then missed a chance to force a playoff when a difficult attempt for par from the same distance drifted left of the hole. “I feel very happy, like a bird,” Kim said through a translator. “I want to fly in the sky.” Kim led Webb by one shot overnight and they both posted 3-under rounds of 68 in perfect conditions, with no clouds or wind to disrupt them.

She finished on 11-under 273 overall, having shot the lowest ever round in a major with a 61 on Thursday. Webb, meanwhile, was looking to win her eighth career major and first since Kraft Nabisco in 2006. “I believe in fate a little bit, and I wasn’t meant to win,” Webb said. “I hit a lot of good putts this week. Probably the one on the last was the poorest I hit all week.” Only Morgan Pressel and Lexi Thompson — both from the U.S. — have won majors at a younger age than Kim, who is studying physical education in Seoul. She seemed to take it all in her stride. When Webb’s putt rolled wide, Kim removed her glasses slowly and then walked up to give Webb a small hug. Her caddie, Gordon Rowan, said Kim didn’t know she’d won at first. “I don’t think she was aware of the real situation of the scores,” Rowan said. “I said ’You’ve won. She said ’No, no, I haven’t,’ which was quite sweet.”

The RDC Queens tied the Lakeland College Rustlers 1-1 in Lloydminster on Saturday, thanks to an early goal from Jess White. Queens head coach David Colley says they deserved a better fate. “They kept to the formations and kept to the game and didn’t get the result they really deserved,” he said. “I’m frustrated for them because they did everything right except finish.” Lauren Good was solid in net for Red Deer, but just could not come up with the save on the Rustlers’ tying goal midway through the first half as the shot hit the post and went in past the outstretched netminder. Still, the Queens dominated the rest of the game with numerous opportunities across the board but could not beat Lyndsey Wood in the Lakeland net for a second time. They either hit posts, missed open sides of the net or shot right at Wood. “Their goalie was player of the game for a reason,” said Colley. “Every single forward and midfielder had their chances but it didn’t go in the goal.” Still it was a positive result for the club with two tough games coming up this weekend, at Medicine Hat College on Saturday and at Lethbridge College on Sunday. Rustlers 4, Kings 0 The RDC Kings looked great for the first 30 minutes against the Lakeland Rustlers, but after two injuries to their

Flames. Isaac Kingma was the lone Rebels Black scorer in Saturday’s loss to the Royals, who outshot their hosts 61-20. Wyatt Argent and Steven Arthur teamed up to make 50 saves for Red Deer. Ryan McMann and Deegan Moffard scored for the Rebels Black in Sunday’s lopsided defeat. Argent and Arthur combined to make 29 saves as the Flames held a 41-20 advantage in shots.

Red Deer controlled much of the play early in the first half, even had a few opportunities to take the lead, but lost Ben Schultz to a concussion and Masoum Zaher to a groin injury. Twenty seconds later, the home squad took a 1-0 lead. The Rustlers then made it 2-0 just before half. Early in the second half they lost another defender, Pat Sweiger, to cramps and a knee injury and they started to run out of steam. They were already missing midfielder Andrew Jevne who suffered a knee injury in the opening weekend. “Getting a settled back four is what we’re really after, we just can’t do that right now because of all the injuries we’re having,” said head coach Steve Fullarton. “The injuries just upset the whole rhythm of our game, and then it’s tough for guys to come into a game as well and find a feel right away.” It is unknown how long any of their wounded players will be out, some of them could be long term while some may be able to go this weekend when they are in Medicine Hat to play the Rattlers and Lethbridge to play the Kodiaks. “We’re confident we can beat those teams and we know we didn’t play well in the first weekend,” said Fullarton, noting the 2-2 tie with the Rattlers and the 3-2 win over the Kodiaks from last week. “From what we saw (Saturday) in the first 30 minutes, it was really promising and if we can get some of these guys back fit for the weekend, we’ll give it a good shot.” jaldrich@reddeeradvocate.com

MEN’S VOLLEYBALL

Canada fails to advance at World Championship KATOWICE, Poland — The Canadian men’s volleyball team was eliminated from the FIVB World Championships after falling to Germany in straight sets on Sunday. Germany advanced to the next stage of the tournament with a 28-26, 25-22, 25-23 victory. Canada won six of its nine contests at the Worlds, losing to higher ranked Russia (2), Brazil (1) and Germany (10). Canada, which needed to beat Germany 3-0 or 3-1 to finish third in its pool and advance, is currently ranked 15th in the world. “I think our team gained a lot of confidence from this tournament and the future is bright for us,” said Canada’s team captain, Fred Winters of Victoria. Gyorgy Grozer led Germany with 18 points, while former RDC player Gavin Schmitt was Canada’s leading scorer with 10 points. Germany made 23 errors, while Canada made 19.

Horschel takes Tour Championship and FedEx Cup BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS ATLANTA — Just three weeks ago, Billy Horschel had every reason to start looking ahead to next season. He had missed the cut in the first FedEx Cup playoff event to fall to No. 82 in the standings. He only had two top 10s all year, scant evidence that he was on the verge of something special. He was weeks away from becoming a father. What followed was the best golf of his life, and a payoff that was more than he could grasp. “I’m not sure life can be better than this,” Horschel said. Horschel capped off his improbable playoff run Sunday at East Lake by pulling away from Rory McIlroy early and holding off Jim Furyk late. He posted his 12th straight round in the 60s — a 2-under 68 — to win the Tour Championship by three shots and claim the FedEx Cup and its $10 million bonus. That’s what these FedEx Cup playoffs are all about — who can get the hot hand over the last four tournaments. Horschel took that to a level only Tiger Woods can appreciate. No one had ever won the FedEx Cup starting the playoffs lower than No. 19. Horschel started at No. 69. But he was the runner-up in Boston, a winner in Denver and he cashed in big in Atlanta. Those three weeks of prize money and the FedEx Cup bonus were worth nearly $13.5 million. “I remember flying home and talk-

I needed to allow my golf game to show.” It was just too late to show Ryder Cup captain Tom Watson. Horschel’s timing was perfect for the FedEx Cup, not so much for the Ryder Cup. Watson made his three captain’s picks after the Deutsche Bank Championship — Horschel was the runner-up — and he had no reason to select a guy whose only PGA Tour win was last year. Now the Americans head to Scot-

land without the hottest hand in golf. McIlroy will have to settle for a year worth more than $10 million — two majors, a World Golf Championship and undisputed No. 1 in the world. He lost his way with a tee shot into the water for double bogey on the par-3 fifth, and self-destructed with three sloppy bogeys around the turn. Three consecutive birdies late in the round gave him a 71 and a tie for second place with Furyk, who closed with back-to-back bogeys for a 69. This was the Billy Horschel show all week — all month. Clinging to a oneshot lead, he calmly sank an 8-foot par putt on No. 13 to avoid his first threeputt of the week and stay one shot

ahead of Furyk. The biggest blow came at the 16th hole when Horschel drove right into the trees, wisely pitched back to the fairway and saw his approach spin back 30 feet short of the cup. The putt never looked as if it was going anywhere but in. “It came off and got up on top of that ridge and I said, ’This looks good.’ And it went in, and it was huge,” Horschel said. “I knew Jim was nipping at my heels and everything, and that was a big, big putt.” Furyk came up short with his approach on the 17th and made bogey to fall two shots behind, and he threeputted the 18th trying to force a birdie. That made things easy on Horschel, who drilled his tee shot onto the green for a two-putt par to finish at 11-under 269. Horschel shared hugs and a few tears with his parents. His wife was home in Florida. “Hopefully, she’s not going into labour right now,” he said. Not to worry. Brittany Horschel tweeted a picture of her smiling with her hands on her belly that said, “”We“ made it! congrats daddy!” McIlroy’s birdies at the end earned him a little extra cash. He wound up No. 3 in the FedEx Cup, which paid an additional $2 million. Chris Kirk, who started the Tour Championship as the No. 1 seed in the FedEx Cup, closed with a 68 and tied for fourth with Justin Rose (69) and Jason Day (69). Kirk was second in the FedEx Cup and earned a $3 million bonus.

Injuries, upsets make mark in week two NFL ROUNDUP BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Redskins 44 Jaguars 10 LANDOVER, Md. — Robert Griffin III dislocated his left ankle and DeSean Jackson sprained his left shoulder in the first quarter, then Kirk Cousins stepped in. He completed 22 of 33 passes for 250 yards and a pair of touchdowns Sunday in Washington’s 41-10 romp past Jacksonville. Griffin was carted to the locker room with his leg in a splint and could be out for two months. He will undergo X-rays to determine if the ankle is broken. Cousins subbed for Griffin and completed his first 12 passes. Ryan Kerrigan had four of the Redskins’ 10 sacks, and Washington’s defence didn’t allow Jacksonville (0-2) past midfield until the final two minutes of the first half. Washington (1-1) outgained Jacksonville 449-148. Chargers 30, Seahawks 21 SAN DIEGO (AP) — Antonio Gates had three touchdown catches and the Chargers controlled the tempo to keep Seattle’s offence off the field. Gates’ 21-yard catch late in the third quarter was epic, as the star tight end split two defenders and extended for Philip Rivers’ pass, reaching out with his left hand to gather it in. Flat on his back, he held up the ball to show the officials he made the catch that gave San Diego a 27-14. Rivers was 28 of 37 for 284 yards. San Diego (1-1) had blown an 11-point fourth-quarter lead and lost its opener Monday night at Arizona. Seattle (1-1) had nine days to prepare after a 20-point opening victory against Green Bay. Browns 26 Saints 24 CLEVELAND (AP) — Billy Cundiff kicked a 29-yard field goal with 3 seconds left. Cundiff’s kick helped the Browns (1-1) snap a nine-game losing streak in home openers and gave rookie coach Mike Pettine his first NFL win. Brian Hoyer drove the Browns 85 yards in 14 plays in the final 2:46 to set up Cundiff’s winner. Hoyer completed several big passes, none more crucial than his 28-yarder to Andrew Hawkins with 13 seconds to go. The Saints (0-2) rallied from a 13-point deficit to take the lead on Mark Ingram’s 1-yard TD run with 12:12 left. Drew Brees threw two touchdown passes to Jimmy Graham and moved into fourth place on the NFL’s career passing list. Down 24-23, Cleveland took over at its 4. Missing suspended receiver Josh Gordon and without injured Pro Bowl tight end Jordan Cameron and running back Ben Tate, Hoyer calmly took the Browns down the field. Packers 31, Jets 24 GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Aaron Rodgers threw for three touchdowns, Jordy Nelson had a career-high 209 yards receiving and the Packers rallied from an 18-point deficit. New York appeared to tie it with 5 minutes left on a 37-yard catch by Jeremy Kerley on fourth down — but it was negated because the Jets (1-1) called a timeout from the sideline just before the snap. The Packers (1-1) held on from there to avoid their first 0-2 start since 2006. Randall Cobb caught two short scoring strikes and a 2-point conversation that gave the Packers a 24-21 lead in the third quarter. Green Bay (1-1) went up 31-24 late in the third quarter when Nelson worked a double move on Dee Mil liner for an 80-yard touchdown catch. Bengals 24, Falcons 10 CINCINNATI (AP) — One Bengals player after another hobbled off and headed to the locker room. They still had more than enough to stay unbeat-

en with a win over Atlanta (1-1). Running back Giovani Bernard picked up the depleted offence by running for 90 yards. Cincinnati’s defence held down Matt Ryan and the Bengals won their home opener and improved to 2-0 for the first time since 2006. But Pro Bowl receiver A.J. Green aggravated an injured toe on his right foot, and didn’t catch a pass for the first time in his four-year career. Tight end Alex Smith injured his left biceps, right guard Kevin Zeitler hurt his right calf, and Pro Bowl linebacker Vontaze Burfict left in the second half with a pinched nerve in his neck. Burfict suffered a concussion in a season-opening win at Baltimore and missed practice during the week. Bills 29, Dolphins 10 ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — C.J. Spiller scored on a 102-yard kickoff return, and rookie receiver Sammy Watkins had a 12-yard touchdown catch. The Dolphins (1-1) also lost a key off-season addition when running back Knowshon Moreno did not return after hurting his left elbow 11 minutes in. Spiller and Watkins, the Clemson connection, both scored in the third quarter, putting Buffalo (2-0) ahead 23-10. The Bills rode the momentum of a charged-up crowd in a home opener that celebrated the franchise’s past and future. The Bills paid tribute to late owner Ralph Wilson, who died in March. On Tuesday, Wilson’s estate reached a “definitive agreement” to sell the team to Terry and Kim Pegula for an NFL-record $1.4 billion. Patriots 30, Vikings 7 MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Tom Brady and the Patriots took advantage of Adrian Peterson’s absence and Matt Cassel’s four interceptions. Chandler Jones returned a field goal he blocked for a touchdown right before halftime. Brady went 15 for 22 for 149 yards, one touchdown and no turnovers, and Cassel’s first start against his close friend and former mentor was a dud. Devin McCourty, Darrelle Revis, Logan Ryan and Dominique Easley all picked him off, setting up 17 points for the Patriots, prompting “Teddy! Teddy! Teddy!” chants from the crowd for the rookie Bridgewater. Peterson was shelved for the game after a charge of child abuse was levied against him Friday in Texas. Broncos 24, Chiefs 17 DENVER (AP) — Terrance Knighton batted away Alex Smith’s fourthand-goal pass to Dwayne Bowe with 15 seconds left. The Broncos (2-0) thought they had sealed the win twice earlier on the drive. Aqib Talib’s interception return for a TD was negated when Quanterus Smith jumped offside. Then Nate Irving’s fumble recovery following DeMarcus Ware’s sack and strip was ruled an incomplete pass after a replay. The Chiefs (0-2) converted 11 of 16 third-down opportunities overall. They just couldn’t capitalize in the biggest moments as the Broncos mustered two goal-line stands for the second straight week. Peyton Manning was 21 of 26 for 242 yards and three TDs. Panthers 24, Lions 7 CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Cam Newton made a successful return to the field, throwing for 281 yards and a touchdown. Newton, who missed the season opener with a rib injury, was 22 of 34 and overcame five sacks. Carolina started 2-0 for the first time since 2008. Trailing 7-6 in the third quarter, the Panthers took advantage of back-toback Detroit turnovers and scored on three straight possessions. Carolina’s defence, playing without Pro Bowl defensive end Greg Hardy, had three takeaways and held the Lions (1-1) scoreless in the first half one

Hardy, convicted on two counts of domestic violence on July 15, was a surprise inactive. Stafford was sacked four times. Cowboys 26, Titans 10 NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — DeMarco Murray ran for 167 yards and a touchdown and Dan Bailey kicked four field goals. The loss spoiled Tennessee first-year coach Ken Whisenhunt’s home debut. Dallas (1-1) scored the first 16 points of the game in the first half. Even the beleaguered Dallas defence got into the act, coming up with two sacks and two interceptions. Tony Romo easily shook off his three interceptions in the season-opening loss to San Francisco. With Murray running so well, Romo was 19 of 29 for 176 yards and a TD. The Titans (1-1) struggled in all areas after winning their opener at Kansas City. Texans 30, Raiders 14 OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — J.J. Watt caught a 1-yard touchdown pass, Arian Foster ran for 138 yards and a score and the Texans won their second straight game. Instead of controlling the game from his usual defensive end position, Watt made his biggest impact on the opening drive when he lined up as a tight end. He caught a pass from Ryan Fitzpatrick to get Houston (2-0) started. After losing their final 14 games in a two-win season in 2013, the Texans have opened strong under new coach Bill O’Brien. The home opener for the Raiders (0-2) hardly could have gone worse as they fell behind 27-0 after three quarters.

Rams 19, Buccaneers 17 TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Greg Zuerlein’s fourth field goal, a 38-yarder with 38 seconds remaining, gave third-string quarterback Austin Davis and the Rams a tight win. Davis completed 22 of 29 passes for 235 yards with no interceptions in his first NFL start. Zac Stacy had a 2-yard touchdown run in the first quarter, and Zuerlein also delivered field goals of 36, 35 and 46 yards to help the Rams (1--1) rebound from a lopsided opening loss to Minnesota. Bobby Rainey rushed 144 yards and quarterback Josh McCown had two short TD runs for the Bucs (0-2). Tampa moved into St. Louis territory in the closing second. The game ended when rookie Mike Evans was slow getting up after a 29-yard reception to the St. Louis 32. Cardinals 25, Giants 14 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Ted Ginn Jr. ran 71 yards on a punt return for a go-ahead fourth-quarter touchdown. Playing in a regular-season game for the first time since 2010, Drew Stanton replaced the scratched Carson Palmer and led the Cardinals (2-0) on three long scoring drives. Arizona won for the ninth time in 11 games. Jonathan Dwyer scored on a 1-yard run and Chandler Catanzaro kicked four field goals, including one a minute after Ginn’s electrifying return on which the speedster bounced off a tackle and was gone. The Cardinals got the ball back right away after Quintin Demps fumbled on the ensuing kickoff return. Eli Manning threw two touchdowns for the Giants (0-2), who turned over the ball four times.

Jays shine and sputter in loss to Rays BY THE CANADIAN PRESS Rays 6 Blue Jays 5 TORONTO — A Toronto season filled with surprise and disappointment was neatly summed up Sunday afternoon in a 6-5 10th-inning loss to the Tampa Bay Rays. The Blue Jays have managed to shine and sputter in 2014. On Sunday, they did both. Trailing 5-4, Toronto was down to its last strike when pinch-hitter John Mayberry Jr. hit a solo home run to send the game into extra innings. The line drive off Jake McGee just cleared the left-field fence to the delight of 28,633 with the roof open at the Rogers Centre. Adam Lind’s three-run homer in the eighth off Rays reliever Grant Balfour had started the comeback, following singles by Jose Reyes and Jose Bautista. The Toronto offence had been neatly handled for seven innings by Tampa starter Chris Archer, who struck out nine and allowed just one run — a homer by Edwin Encarnacion — on three hits. But after doing the hard work in the eighth and ninth, the Jays laid an egg in the 10th. Reliever Brandon Morrow (1-3) put Toronto in a hole leaving men on first and third with no outs for left-hander Brett Cecil after a Wil Myers walk and Logan Forsythe single. Things got worse when Forsythe stole second and Yunel Escobar walkBed to load the

bases. Myers scored on Sean Rodriguez’s sacrifice fly but Jays third baseman Danny Valencia cut down Forsythe at the home on an ensuing groundout before Cecil struck out Kevin Kiermaier to limit the damage. The one run was enough for Tampa (72-78) as Brandon Gomes and Jeff Beliveau, with his first career save, combined to blank Toronto in the 10th. “At this time of year, where we’re at, there’s really no room for error,” said Toronto manager John Gibbons. whose 77-71 team has 14 games remaining. “It makes it that much tougher. And they’re always tough too when you battle back. “It’s just one of those games where not much was happening. Then you come back, you strike quick and now the momentum’s on your side. Everybody’s upbeat and you come back and you end up dropping it like that. Those are always tough. But at this time of year considering where we’re at, it’s especially tough.” The Jays came into the contest four games back in the wild-card race, with Seattle, Kansas City and Oakland in front of them. “Obviously we don’t like the position we’re in, with the teams in front of us,” said Toronto starter Mark Buehrle who went six innings. “If there was one team in front of us for that playoff position, then it would be a different story. I mean, I think we all know we’re not in a good position. We need help from other teams but at the same time we’ve got to worry about ourselves and try to

It also extended Toronto’s franchise record for

pinch-hit homers in a season to nine. The Rays came into the game having lost four of their last eight games, throwing away leads of 4-0, 4-0, 3-0 and 2-0 along the way. But they hung on for the win this time after mounting their own comeback. Toronto had won five of its last six and 10 of 13 since Aug. 30, during which time it has outscored the opposition 70-30.

Keselowski takes opening race of NASCAR’s Chase JOLIET, Ill. — Brad Keselowski saw one shot in front of him to steal the win in the opening race of the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. He had twice picked his way through the field Sunday at Chicagoland Speedway, and found himself watching a spirited, side-by-side battle for the lead between Kevin Harvick and rookie Kyle Larson. As everyone else held their breath watching the Harvick and Larson duel, Keselowski saw his opening and pounced. He used a daring three-wide drive through the middle to grab the lead for good. “I just saw a hole and I went for it,” he said. “I didn’t know if my car would stick or not, but I knew I’d regret it if I didn’t try it.” The win in the first race of the 10-race Chase automatically advances Keselowski, the top seed in the 16-driver field, into the second round. NASCAR this year has debuted an elimination format and four drivers will be knocked out after every third race. As Team Penske celebrated in Victory Lane, Keselowski moved his name on a bracket-type Chase grid into the next round. “I guess you couldn’t ask for a better way to start the Chase,” he said. “Today was about as much of a statement as you can make.” Keselowski opened the 2012 Chase with a win at Chicago and went on to his first Sprint Cup title. He failed to make the Chase last year and was ineligible to defend his title, but has raced this entire year as if he’s on a mission to win a second championship. Now he can race for fun the next two weeks as he awaits the Chase reset following the Sept. 28 race

at Dover — all because he went for broke on Sunday. “The first thing we wanted to do was get a win for one of our cars so we’re automatically in the next round,” team owner Roger Penske said. “With Brad being able to split in between (Larson) and (Harvick), it was the winning move.” The gamble with 15 laps remaining put Keselowski solidly out front, and he easily pulled away from the field while Harvick and Larson had their hands full trying to hold off Jeff Gordon. Then contact between Danica Patrick and Ricky Stenhouse Jr. set up one final restart with six laps to go, but Keselowski again surged to the front for his second consecutive victory and Sprint Cup Series-leading fifth of the year. It was a huge turnaround from Friday’s opening practice, when he and Penske teammate Joey Logano struggled to find speed. Keselowski started 25th, but worked his way up to second, only to give it all up following a questionable pit stop under yellow. The rear tire changer fretted he didn’t get the wheel on tight enough, and crew chief Paul Wolfe had to make a splitsecond decision on if they should address the issue or see how it played out. Wolfe decided to give up track position and bring Keselowski back to the pits under yellow instead of gambling there wasn’t a problem and it backfiring under green. “The real winner today is the young man that changes the rear tire, (he) put his hand up and said ’Hey, I screwed up. The wheel might be loose,”’ Penske said. “Paul had the guts to say on the radio, ’We’re not going to go out and run to find out. We’re coming in now.”’

It made for an exciting finish a week after Keselowski led all but 17 laps in a snoozer of a regular-season finale. It also put the rest of the Chase field on notice that Keselowski is a very strong title contender. Although 12 Chase drivers finished in the top 15, Sunday proved they’ll all have their hands full with Keselowski, Gordon and Harvick. Gordon, trying for his fifth NASCAR championship, wound up second while

Larson, the rookie who flirted with Chase contention, was third. Logano was fourth and Harvick faded to fifth after leading a race-high 79 laps. Chase-eligible drivers Denny Hamlin, Kyle Busch and Kurt Busch took the next three spots, while Larson teammate Jamie McMurray was ninth. Matt Kenseth finished 10th as all three Joe Gibbs Racing drivers finished inside the top 10.

ATLANTA — Greg Norman is recovering from a chain saw accident that nearly cost him his left hand, but not his sense of humour. “At least I can still play tennis,” Norman said. The Hall of Fame golfer and entrepreneur, was cutting back trees in his South Florida home when the weight of a branch pulled his left hand toward the chain saw. He said the blade hit him just below where a person would be wearing a wrist watch. He said doctors told him it missed his artery by a fraction of an inch. “Thank God the blade wasn’t running full speed or it would have taken my hand off,” Norman said. “I handled everything as calmly as I could. There is no major damage. There is nerve damage, but no muscular damage.” He posted a photo on Instagram from the hospital bed of his heavily bandaged left hand protected by a large piece of purple foam. “Working with a chainsaw ALWAYS be respectful of the unexpected. I was one lucky man today. Damaged, but not down & out. Still have left hand,” he posted.

U.S. repeats as champions at World Cup BASKETBALL BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

United States’ player celebrate their victory after wining the final World Basketball match against Serbia at the Palacio de los Deportes stadium in Madrid, Spain, Sunday. favourite Spain in the quarters. Serbia carried that momentum into the early moments of this one and was running a fluid offence that produced layups and dunks, and opened the biggest lead any team had against the U.S. in this tournament when Miroslav Raduljica’s three-point play made it 15-7. That was wiped out in a minute, and Serbia’s hopes of winning didn’t last much longer. Harden had a three-point play and 3-pointer, DeMarcus Cousins tied it with a pair of free throws, and then Irving had a jumper, 3-pointer and layup to cap a 15-0 burst that made it 22-15. Irving hit a couple more 3s in an 11-0 run later in

the quarter that provided a 35-19 cushion, and the Americans poured it on midway through the second in making it 56-30 after back-to-back 3s by Irving and Harden. France beat Lithuania 95-93 on Saturday for the bronze. The Americans came in winning by 32.5 points per game and their closest victory in the tournament was by 21 points over Turkey. They thought they would get a tough game Sunday, but were simply too good to let that happen. They finished at 58 per cent from the field, made 15 of 30 3-pointers and put eight of their 12 players in double figures.

LEAGUE REGISTRATION NIGHT

Raonic secures Canada’s Davis Cup World Group spot with win over Giraldo HALIFAX — Milos Raonic did just what was expected of him. The Thornhill, Ont. native won both his singles matches in a playoff tie with Colombia, including the clinching match on Sunday, as Canada stayed in the Davis Cup World Group for the fourth straight year. Raonic, No. 7 in the ATP singles rankings, beat Santiago Giraldo 6-1, 7-6(2), 7-5 in front of a spirited crowd at Halifax Metro Centre. The win gave Canada a 3-1 lead in a best of five tie, and secured Canada’s spot in the World Group for 2015. “I knew I wasn’t playing my best tennis, probably at B-plus level at the very best,” said 23-year-old Raonic. “But I am extremely happy the way I competed in both matches, and giving Canada a deciding point in a tie for the fifth time.” Raonic won deciding points against Mexico, South Africa, Spain and Italy. “I was struggling a little bit in the second set, but decided to put an extra pressure on Giraldo by serving and attacking the net as often as possible.” “I don’t think that Milos was in danger even if he had lost that second set,” added Canadian coach Martin Larendeau. “He was serving well, and played aggressively, so I was confident he could win for us.” As for his part, Giraldo played at a very solid level on the surface he dislikes the most. “I like slower surfaces like clay, slower hard courts to be able to construct the point. I played one of the top players today on his favourite surface and played a good match,” said Giraldo. Giraldo had two set points in the second set, but Raonic saved the first one with a volley, and then Giraldo made an unforced error sending the ball to the net. On Friday Raonic beat World No. 90 Alejandro Gonzales 6-3, 6-3, 6-2 — overwhelming his opponent with 30 aces (Gonzales had only one). Teammate Vasek Pospisil, of Vancouver, gave Canada a 1-0 lead when he beat Giraldo 6-3, 7-6(2), 6-3 in the opening match. Joining Raonic on the Canadian team were Frank Dancevic (ATP No. 135) and Daniel Nestor (ATP No. 3 doubles), who’s played his 47 Davis Cup tie. On Saturday Pospisil and Nestor lost their doubles match to the team of Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah 7-6(4), 7-6(7) 6-4 in a close match where the winners won the total of 109 points and the losing team won 102.

Come and sign up Winning the doubles match on Saturday gave the Colombian team some hope before the reverse for the 2014-2015 singles matches on Sunday, but Mauricio Hadad, Curling Season Colombia’s coach, had no doubt that winning both singles against very well serving opponents would be a tough order. Free “The doubles team kept us in the match, but we BBQ knew that winning both singles on the surface that heavily favours Canadian players is going to be very, very difficult.” In the last match Dancevic, of Niagara Falls, Ont., lost to Alejandro Gonzales 6-4, 5-7, 2-6.

MADRID, Spain — Kyrie Irving made all six 3-pointers and scored 26 points, and the U.S. repeated as world champion for the first time by crushing Serbia 129-92 on Sunday in the Basketball World Cup. James Harden added 23 for the Americans, who made 11 of 16 3-pointers in a sensational-shooting first half, adding one final romp to a tournament full of them. This depleted team that was supposedly weak enough to lose was too good to be touched. The Americans were supposed to have All-Star forwards Kevin Durant, Kevin Love and Blake Griffin, who all informed USA Basketball not long before the tournament that they would be unavailable. But Irving — the tournament MVP — and Harden stuck around, and despite sending the youngest U.S. team since NBA players debuted in 1992, the Americans remained as dominant as ever. They have won 63 straight games — 45 in official FIBA events and 18 in exhibition play — and are automatically qualified for the 2016 Olympics in Brazil. LeBron James, Durant, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul might want to return for that. But the Americans will have to leave room for some players from this team, which has loads of young talent that figures to get even better from the time it spent together. It was the fifth world title for the Americans, tying Yugoslavia for the most all-time. And the second for Derrick Rose, who used this tournament as his return after missing most of the last two seasons following a pair of knee surgeries, along with Stephen Curry and Rudy Gay. It was the first medal for Serbia, which had been a part of Yugoslavia when it won five. The Yugoslavians had been the last repeat champions, winning in 1998 and 2002. The Serbians were only 2-3 in the group stage but then routed previously unbeaten Greece and Brazil before building a big lead and holding on for a 90-85 semifinal victory over France, which had beat then in the group stage and knocked out tournament co-

Global drive grows against ISIL WITH PROMISES OF AIRSTRIKES BUT NO GROUND TROOPS BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Photo by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In this March 2, 2013 photo, a view of an oil field under control of Kurdish militias near the town of Deriq, in a Kurdish area of Syria, near the border with Iraq. The Islamic State militants, who once relied on wealthy Persian Gulf nations for money, have become a self-sustaining financial juggernaut, earning more than $3 million a day from oil smuggling, human trafficking, theft and extortion, according to U.S. intelligence officials and private experts. The group, which has taken over large sections of Syria and Iraq, controls as many as 11 oil fields in both countries, analysts say. It is selling oil and other goods through generationsold smuggling networks under the noses of some of the same governments it is fighting: Kurdish-controlled northern Iraq, Turkey and Jordan. Islamic State group — among them many Iraqis — took on the Iraqi military in Sunni-majority Anbar province, capitalizing on long-standing grievances against the Shiite-led government in Baghdad. When the militants arrived in Mosul, Iraq’s second-largest city, the U.S.-trained military crumbled almost instantly. Commanders disappeared. Pleas for more ammunition went unanswered. Troops ran from post to post, only to find them already taken by gunmen. In some cases, they stripped off their uniforms. The militants seized tanks, missile launchers and ammunition that allowed their lightning advance across northern Iraq. The CIA estimates the Sunni militant group has access to between 20,000 and 31,000 fighters in Iraq and Syria. A senior Iraqi intelligence official told The Associated Press that more than 27,600 Islamic State fighters are believed to be operating in Iraq alone, including about 2,600 foreigners. He spoke anonymously as he is not entitled to brief the media. McDonough said Iraq’s newly inclusive Iraqi government allowed the U.S. and other countries to step up their role. “I’m a believer in the future of this country and always been very realistically optimistic. But the international community must step up and do its part to help us and we appreciate that help. This is not just Iraq’s fight or Syria’s fight. This is a threat to global security,” said Hoshyar Zebari, a veteran Kurdish politician who was named a deputy prime minister last week. Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott said he was preparing to contribute up to 10 military aircraft

North Korea sentences 24-year-old American man to six years of hard labour for espionage BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PYONGYANG, North Korea — North Korea’s Supreme Court on Sunday convicted a 24-year-old American man of entering the country illegally to commit espionage and sentenced him to six years of hard labour. At a trial that lasted about 90 minutes, the court said Matthew Miller, of Bakersfield, California, tore up his tourist visa at Pyongyang’s airport upon arrival on April 10 and admitted to having the “wild ambition” of experiencing prison life so that he could secretly investigate North Korea’s human rights situation. Miller, who looked thin and pale at the trial and was dressed completely in black, is one of three Americans being held in North Korea. Showing no emotion throughout the proceedings, Miller waived the right to a lawyer and was handcuffed before being led from the courtroom after his sentencing. The court, comprising a chief judge flanked by two “people’s assessors,” ruled it would not hear any appeals to its decision. Earlier, it had been believed that Miller had sought asylum when he entered North Korea. During the trial, however, the prosecution argued that was a ruse and that Miller also falsely claimed to have secret information about the U.S. military in South Korea on his iPad and iPod. Miller was charged under Article 64 of the North Korean criminal code, 8010 Edgar which is for espionage and can carry a sentence of five to 10 years, though harsher punishments can be given for more serious

cases. The Associated Press was allowed to attend the trial. A trial is expected soon for one of the other Americans being held, Jeffrey Fowle, who entered the North as a tourist and was arrested in May for leaving a Bible at a sailor’s club in the city of Chongjin. The third American, Korean-American missionary Kenneth Bae, is serving out a 15-year sentence for alleged “hostile acts.”

and 600 personnel to be deployed to the United Arab Emirates. A statement from his office said special operations personnel who could assist Iraq’s security forces were being prepared also, but combat troops were not being deployed. German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier called Sunday for “internationally agreed action to effectively stop the flow of fighters and money.” Germany on Friday banned all activity on behalf of the Islamic State group, including the distribution of propaganda and the display of its symbols, and is supplying Kurdish forces fighting the extremists in Iraq with assault rifles, anti-tank weapons and armoured vehicles. But Germany has ruled out airstrikes and ground troops.

PARIS — Newly outraged by the beheading of yet another Western hostage, diplomats from around the world are in Paris pressing for a coherent global strategy to combat extremists from the Islamic State group — minus two of the main players and without any ground troops — in a conflict that threatens to spill beyond the Mideast. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has been pressuring allies ahead of a conference Monday to show a united front, especially from majority-Muslim nations, saying nearly 40 countries agreed to contribute to a worldwide fight to defeat the militants before they gain more territory in Iraq and Syria. The White House said Sunday it would find allies willing to send combat forces — something the United States has ruled out — but that it was too early to identify them. The U.S. has so far been alone in carrying out airstrikes. Several Arab countries offered to conduct airstrikes against the Islamic State group, according to a State Department official travelling with Kerry who briefed reporters on condition of anonymity to discuss diplomat developments during his trip. A second official gave some examples of what the U.S. would consider a military contribution: providing arms, any kind of training activity and airstrikes. Muslim-majority countries are considered vital to any operation, although there have only been vague offers of help previously. Iran was struck off the invitation list, and Western officials have made clear they consider Syria’s government part of the problem. “Ultimately, this is a fight within Islam, within Sunni Islam,” White House chief of staff Denis McDonough told Fox News on Sunday. “That’s why we know that ultimately to defeat and ultimately destroy ISIL, something that is not only in our interest but in the interest of the countries in the region, they are going to need to take the fight to it,” he said, using one of the acronyms for the group. “We’ll build, we’ll lead, we’ll undergird, and we’ll strengthen that coalition. But ultimately, they’re going to help us beat them on the ground,” McDonough said. But the Paris conference, officially dedicated to peace and stability in Iraq, avoids mention of Syria, the power base of the militant organization gaining territory in both countries by the week. And the U.S. opposed France’s attempt to invite Iran, which shares a 1,400-kilometre (870-mile) border with Iraq. The gathering itself will be brief, a matter of a few hours between its start and a planned joint statement. The killing of David Haines, a British aid worker held hostage by the militants, added urgency to the calls for a coherent strategy against the brutal and well-organized group, which is a magnet for Muslim extremists from all over the world and rakes in more than $3 million a day from oil smuggling, human trafficking, theft and extortion, according to U.S. intelligence officials and private experts. British Prime Minister David Cameron said his country would continue offering logistical help to U.S. forces and that counterterrorism efforts will increase, describing the Islamic State group as a “massive” security threat that cannot be ignored. “They are not Muslims, they are monsters,” Cameron said. Haines was the third Westerner to be killed by the extremists, after two American journalists. British officials also released the name of a second U.K. hostage being held by the group and threatened with death, identifying him as Alan Henning. Following successes in Syria, fighters with the

Cancer that killed Terry Fox now highly curable OTHER FORMS OF SARCOMA STILL CHALLENGING FOR RESEARCHERS BY THE CANADIAN PRESS TORONTO — At the time Terry Fox was treated for the bone cancer that claimed his leg and eventually led to his death in 1981, few patients survived that kind of malignancy, known as an osteosarcoma. But advances in treatment over the last few decades have dramatically altered that grim prognosis, with the majority of patients today not only keeping their limbs, but many also surviving the cancer. When the B.C. 18-year-old was diagnosed with osteosarcoma in his right leg in 1977, doctors immediately amputated the limb above the knee — the standard treatment then — and he embarked on a 16-month marathon of chemotherapy, a drug regimen for this kind of bone cancer that was still somewhat experimental at the time. For many Canadians, the heroic runner’s name has become synonymous with osteosarcoma, the most common form of primary bone cancer to affect children and teens, and one that also occurs rarely in older adults. “And that’s always a good and bad analogy because they know who he is but that he had his leg cut off and died — and that’s not the typical scenario now,” says Dr. Jay Wunder, an orthopedic surgeon at Mount Sinai in Toronto who specializes in sarcomas. “Most bone sarcoma patients now don’t have amputations. Most get limb-sparing or limb-reconstructive surgery,” says Wunder. “Now the cure rate’s almost up to 80 per cent in younger patients. In older patients it’s more like 70 per cent. “So that’s a pretty big turnaround in a couple of decades.” When Dave Lambert, 63, was diag-

The lab is where sarcoma specimens used for cancer genetics research are stored. nosed with sarcoma in his left knee almost two years ago, he was initially unaware of the connection to Fox, nor that the path he would follow had been made so much easier by the determined teen who set out in 1980 to run across Canada to raise money for cancer research. The businessman from Aurora, Ont., just north of Toronto, had developed a bump on his left knee, which rapidly grew into a large mass and burst open when he tripped and fell. His doctor told him a biopsy had

confirmed it was a sarcoma. “He just looked at me and said, ’Remember Terry Fox?”’ “I’m an older man and when I was growing up anybody who had cancer, they just died,” says Lambert. “And when you heard the word ’Terry Fox,’ the immediate vision I remember, all that flashed in front of my face, was Terry Fox losing his leg and I could picture him running and then being dead. That’s all I thought of when he said that word to me and then I just went into shock, total shock.”

But during a referral appointment with Wunder the following week, Lambert learned his cancer was no longer considered an automatic death sentence. Surgery did not mean losing part of his leg; instead the tumour was removed and tissues in and around the joint were reconstructed. “It was a very humbling experience,” says Lambert, who was up walking within weeks of the operation and says his knee “looks great.” While much progress has been made in treating osteosarcoma, there is still much work needed to advance treatment for most of the 50 or so other sarcomas, which in overall cancer terms are still considered rare. Sarcomas are tumours that arise in connective tissues, such as bone. But most types develop in soft tissues like muscle, nerves, skin, fat and blood vessels. The cancer can spread to other parts of the body, such as the lungs, which occurred in Fox’s case and ended his Marathon of Hope on Sept. 1, 1980 just outside Thunder Bay, Ont. “They’re harder to treat,” Wunder says of soft-tissue sarcomas. “If we do good local surgery for those patients, we can cure a fair percentage, but a lot of those patients relapse and there’s no effective curative chemotherapy for them.” “In fact, if we had effective chemo, (these tumours) would probably be transformed the way osteosarcoma was and we could treat those people very differently.” In 2010, 1,175 Canadians were diagnosed with soft-tissue sarcoma; about 470 died of the disease in 2009, according to the Canadian Cancer Society, citing the most recent years for which statistics are available.

Prescriptions for high-dose opioids on the rise in Canada

54163H9-30

TORONTO — Prescriptions for high-dose formulations of opioids like oxycodone and morphine jumped significantly in Canada between 2006 and 2011, despite guidelines advising doctors against giving such elevated doses to most patients, a study has found. Researchers at St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto and the Institute for Clinical Evaluative Sciences found the rate of high-dose opioid dispensing across Canada increased 23 per cent during the six-year study, from 781 units per 1,000 people in 2006 to 961 units in 2011. Put another way, that’s almost one high-dose opioid pill or patch for every person across Canada, say the researchers, who reported their findings Friday in the journal Canadian Family Physician. “We found that high-dose prescribing was widespread across the country, but the prevalence differed considerably between provinces,” said lead author Tara Gomes. Dispensing rates in Saskatchewan and Newfoundland and Labrador spiked dramatically, rising almost 85 per cent and 54 per cent, respectively; Alberta, up six per cent, and British Columbia, rising eight per cent, remained relatively stable. Ontario had the highest dispensing rate at 1,382 units per 1,000 people — more than one per resident — while Quebec had the lowest rate at 368 units per 1,000 people. Provinces also differed in which opioids were most often prescribed. In Alberta and Ontario, oxycodone was the top choice, while B.C. doctors most commonly prescribed morphine. Gomes said there are a couple of factors likely driving the provincial differences in which of the highly addictive painkillers doctors choose to prescribe. “One could be variations in how these drugs are covered on public drug programs,” she said. “We know that in some provinces like Ontario and Alberta, they didn’t have very many restrictions on access to oxycodone at the time of the study ... and those are the provinces where we see the higher rates of prescribing of high-dose oxycodone.” In B.C. and Newfoundland and Labrador, for example, hydromorphone was a restricted product and those provinces have some of the lowest rates of that drug at high doses. Different marketing strategies by manufacturers may also have fed into increased dispensing rates of certain products in some provinces, Gomes suggested. For instance, Ontario’s large population may have led to more aggressive promotion of newer opioids like oxycodone compared to jurisdictions with smaller populations. “So in those provinces you might see older agents where clinicians historically have been more comfortable prescribing an older drug like morphine, for example, and they passed that on through training of residents and newer clinicians,” she said. The study found the per capita rate of high-dose opioid dispensing increased steadily in Canada between 2006 and 2008 before plateauing in 2009-2010, coinciding with the release of Canadian guidelines and a study showing that the rate of fatal opioid overdoses had increased dramatically in Canada. Those guidelines designate opioid doses equivalent to 200 milligrams of morphine per day as “watchful doses,” and doctors are advised to carefully consider the potential risks of addiction and overdose before prescribing a dose that exceeds that threshold. “The evidence shows that these drugs can be effective for treating acute pain conditions for a short period,” said Gomes, citing pain suffered by cancer patients as an example. “Where the evidence is not as clear is whether these are really an effec-

tive pain-management option for long-term use” for phine, hydromorphone and fentanyl patches. treating such problems as chronic low back pain or “On a national front, I think that we likely need a knee pain, she said. unified response to this opioid issue because we’re Research has shown that high-dose opioids can seeing that across Canada there are high rates of use lead to overdoses and death, motor vehicle accidents of these products,” said Gomes. and falls that cause serious fractures.
