Schalk on trial for alleged sex assault VICTIM TESTIFIES

RIDE THE IF YOU DARE

ADVOCATE REPORTER CRYSTAL RHYNO TESTS HER LIMITS. SEE STORY ON PAGE A2.

BY SUSAN ZIELINSKI ADVOCATE STAFF A local pastor and operator of several affordable housing developments was on trial in Red Deer provincial court on Thursday for allegedly sexually assaulting a female employee. Stanley Richard Schalk, 57, of Red Deer County, is charged with one count of sexual assault. On Thursday, the 43-year-old complainant, whose identity is protected by a publication ban for victims, told the court that Schalk gave her a job last June after they talked and he found out about her financial difficulties. She said one day in June, Schalk grabbed her buttocks while hugging her. She grabbed his hand and pulled it away. “It was really insulting. It was really wrong. It goes beyond a hug,” she told the court. She said later that month he drove her to a farmer’s field for a picnic where he pushed her down and got on top of her. He later put his hand in her bra. She pushed him away both times and yelled and swore at him. “It was the worst thing ever,” she said. “There was no one to help me there. It was just a field. I was just trapped there.” He eventually drove her back to work. She said she continued to work for Schalk because she needed the job and eventually contacted the RCMP at the end of September.

Caroline Guilbault and Steve Schult of Sure-Shot Inspections pour their ‘It’s a Sausage Party’ chili into a slow cooker during the annual chili cook off as part of Westerner Days.

Turn up the heat. With bowl and spoon in hand, chili lovers flocked to the annual cook off hosted by Big 105 and 106.7 The Drive at Southpointe Common on Thursday. The tasty fundraiser for the Kidney Foundation Red Deer Chapter drew dozens of tasters who were willing to put their taste buds to the test. Most tasters had one thing in mind — finding the heat. Self-described chili experts and cook off regulars Adam Sandau, Tyler Jansen and Cale Chambers said a good chili must have meat, spice and Pepsi. Chambers said the annual chili cook off is the one Westerner Days event that they look forward to the most.

“This is basically the only event that I get to,” said Chambers. Sandau said they think about putting in their own entry every year but they never seem to follow through. Larissa Anderson agreed that the spicier the better. Steve Schultz of Sure-Shot Inspections and Caroline Guilbault said spice is what makes a good chili even better. The duo were competing for the top prize with “It’s a Sausage Party” entry. Guilbault said lots of time and effort and roasted peppers are the must have ingredients. “Chili is soul food,” said Guilbault. “It feels good.” Sixteen businesses competed for the top prizes.

‘Would I do it again? Not on your life!’ BY CRYSTAL RHYNO ADVOCATE STAFF Adrenaline junkie is not exactly my middle name. But I am not one to shy away from a tough assignment or go the safe route. I like to test my limits. So when I heard the Zipper thrill ride was returning to the midway at Westerner Days, I knew I would be there. The Zip‘I REALLY, per has a long REALLY oblong frame THOUGHT that rotates like a Ferris THIS WAS Wheel with 12 END. ALL I free-flipping cars. Each pasREMEMBER senger is caged IS BEING in on a bench for two. The faTOSSED UP mous (or infaAND DOWN, mous) ride has been around FRONT AND since the 1970s. BACKWARDS.’ In my mind it will be forever known as the ride that nearly ended me. On Thursday afternoon I lined up for the Zipper. I chatted with a bunch of teenagers. One woman, about my age, laughed when I told her I was on assignment for the newspaper. “You won’t catch me on that thing,” she laughed. Fortunately, Hailey Randall, 15, from Leslieville, volunteered to ride the Zipper with me. Randall and her friends had been on the ride twice and were going up for a third time. Randall asked if me if I am afraid of heights after the carnie fastened the cage door shut. I responded with a confident, “No way. Nothing fazes me.” Randall begins her play-by-play with “Now we are at the top” followed by “Now we are moving.” She continues with (now they are) amusing adlibs throughout the ride with “Now we’re going in this direction” and “Now we are going upside down.” At the time I was thinking: “Make it stop, make it stop.” My eyes are glued shut. I am screaming, and there are words coming out of my mouth that are definitely not PG. Randall has her eyes open and is laughing hysterically at my breakdown. It wasn’t my finest moment. I really, really thought this was the end. All I remember is being tossed up and down, front and backwards. I felt like I was going to fly out of the seat and be launched into the sky. My eyes were closed so I really do not know what was happening for the duration of the ride. I accepted a hand from the carnie as I tried to gain my footing on the ground. My legs were wobbly and my throat was hoarse from screaming. I needed a hug. Back at the office, I am recounting my experience to my coworkers. I didn’t receive much sympathy because they are used to my dramatic storytelling. So would I do it again? Not on your life! crhyno@reddeeradvocate.com

SCHALK: Trial continues Aug. 22 Defence lawyer Lorne Goddard wanted to know why she didn’t know the dates of the assaults, except that they occurred between June 15 and June 30. “I remember all the details except the dates,” she said. Goddard asked her why she got in his client’s truck for the picnic after the first incident during the hug, especially when she didn’t know where they were going, and why she later agreed to go for a motorcycle ride with him. She said she didn’t recall when they were on his motorcycle. Goddard asked her why she talked to his client on the phone while he was on vacation with his wife and why she texted with him. She said she still worked for him and was returning his calls. Goddard said that she told another employee that if Schalk ever got rid of her, she would take him down. She said she didn’t recall saying that. She agreed that Schalk told her on Sept. 25 that there was no more work for her. She said she still drives the car that Schalk bought her while she worked for him. At the time she was going to work out a repayment plan for the $13,000 vehicle. Schalk is the pastor of Potter’s Hand Ministries and co-owner of Potter’s Hands Developments that operates River Valley Apartments, a townhouse development in Riverside Meadows, apartments above Potter’s Hands soup kitchen, and The Buffalo apartments. The trial continues on Aug. 22.

Fort McMurray evacuee wins lotto, will donate to charities that helped family

Photo by MARK BRETHERTON/Advocate staff

The Zipper spins into action on Thursday afternoon at Westerner Days.

FORT MCMURRAY — A lottery winner from Alberta who was among the thousands forced to flee a huge wildfire in Fort McMurray says he plans to give back to charities that helped his family. Jason Wheeler won $1 million in the July 6 Lotto 6-49 Extra draw. Wheeler says the Canadian Red Cross, the SPCA and food banks provided help when his family had to evacuate because of the fire in May. He says he wants to return the favour with donations. The wildfire that spread into the city on May 3 forced more than 80,000 people to leave their homes for nearly a month and destroyed roughly 2,400 homes and other buildings. Wheeler says he also plans to pay all of his bills, help his family and buy a golf cart for his campsite.

Software changes tracking of body’s movements BY SUSAN ZIELINSKI ADVOCATE STAFF

Alberta BRIEFS Second woman attacked by bear in two days COCHRANE — There’s been another bear attack in southern Alberta, the second in two days. On Wednesday evening, EMS was called to a trail in Canmore, where they found a woman with injuries to her upper body. She told first responders she had been biking with a friend when they encountered a brown bear. When they attempted to ride away, the bear struck the young woman before it was scared away by the friend with bear spray. The woman was taken to Canmore General Hospital in stable, non life-threatening condition. On Tuesday, a 25-year-old woman was bitten on the arm by a mother grizzly bear in the backcountry northwest of Calgary and was taken to hospital in stable condition.

Police say they got a report that a lone man climbed the fence at the southwest side of the airfield Thursday afternoon. The man left the area by going under the fence on the south side of the airfield shortly afterward. RCMP, with the help of police dogs, took the man into custody. Police say no one was injured and there was no effect on flights and passengers at the airport, located about 30 kilometres south of Edmonton.

Analyzing and measuring exactly how joints in the body move in order to promote healing is more accurate than ever before. Kinetisense Inc., founded by Ryan Comeau, a former junior A hockey player from Red Deer, is changing how doctors, physiotherapists, chiropractors, researchers and others can track the body’s movements with 3D infrared camera technology. Comeau, Kinetisense CEO and a Medicine Hat chiropractor, said until now little has changed in the way practitioners measure the range of motion in joints, and many of them forgo tools, preferring to simply eyeball the flexibility of a joint. “There is a huge amount of subjectivity and not enough objectivity. This is obviously a large gap in medicine and rehab and the fitness industry,” Comeau said. But Kinetisense is fast, objective and engages patients, he said. In 2014, the health-care software company started working on its system that provides functional movement analysis in real time by using a high definition camera with sonar-like technology for depth perception and infrared ability to trace the heat of the body to accurately see the joints. “As the body the moves, the data changes so people can actually use this as an education tool, as a rehab tool, but also an assessment tool.” He said improvement sometimes comes in small, incremental changes and a lot of patients need to see their analysis data change to continue with their treatment plan. “Understanding they’re improving is absolutely key, from a psychological point of view, for them to stick to their home care. They get very excited about doing their exercises, coming back to the practitioner to see what the system says.” He said Kinetisense also shows practitioners if changes are needed to the patient’s treatment, if there has been regression or if improvement has

Hawkish Trudeau is a welcome change WARREN KINSELLA OPINION

he first casualty of war is truth. Everyone knows that. But has Justin Trudeau become its first PoW? In these dangerous times, it occasionally seems that way. The Liberal prime minister, previously a proud peacenik, has seemingly evolved into a hard-as-nails hawk. It is a transformation that has been as surprising as it has been dramatic. Before becoming prime minister, Trudeau was the most pacifistic leader his party had seen in a generation. He mocked our military effort against the Islamic State, likening it to “trying to whip out our CF-18s and show how big they are.” He promised to withdraw from the international coalition fighting the Islamic State. He refused to acknowledge that ISIS was engaged in genocide on a massive scale. This, despite the fact that the United Nations had provided convincing proof that ISIS was, indeed, engaged in genocide. This, despite the fact that ISIS had revealed itself to be a well-funded, well-organized malevo-

lent cult - a murderous force arguably unlike any since Hitler’s regime. This, despite the fact that ISIS itself had proudly documented beheadings, crucifixions, mass rapes, enslavements, torture, and the murder of Canadian citizens. This, too, despite the historical fact that it was the Liberal Party of Canada that had deployed Canadian Forces in the fight against the aforementioned Hitler regime in the Second World War and later sent our troops overseas to prevent genocide in Bosnia, and contain terror in Afghanistan. This, despite the fact Trudeau’s anti-combat rhetoric had alienated many, many senior Liberals - like Irwin Cotler, Bob Rae, Lloyd Axworthy, Romeo Dallaire (and much-lesser Grits, like this writer, who decided against running under the Liberal banner as a result). There were only two possible justifications for Trudeau’s position: 1. He actually believed what he was saying, all the evidence to the contrary, and he thought Canada’s role should be solely humanitarian, or, 2. It was a cynical ploy to attract wayward New Democrat votes - because the NDP has never really supported any military action by Canada, ever. Whatever the rationale, one thing is certain: the pre-election Trudeau bears little resemblance to the post-election one. He is a man trans-

formed. Almost immediately after being sworn in, Trudeau sent an email to everyone on the Department of National Defence internal computer system, stating that CAF (Canadian Armed Forces) had his “full support to reinvest in Canada’s military, making it stronger and leaner, more agile, and better equipped, with the right support systems for military personnel and their families.” That was not the rhetoric of a peacenik. Within weeks, Trudeau tripled the number of Canadian special forces on the ground, training Kurdish forces fighting ISIS, in effect, placing many more Canadians in harm’s way than Harper did. He sent Canadian troops into other hot spots in the region. He started to spend $1.6 billion to support Canada’s military effort there. Not long afterwards, Trudeau agreed to deploy 1,000 Canadian troops to Eastern Europe as a NATO bulwark against Russian expansionism. He said he planned to send CF-18 fighter jets to Europe to guard against “foreign threats.” And he has re-committed to the deployment of Canadian frigates in the region, attached to a NATO fleet. In case anyone doubted his bona fides, Trudeau toured the Ukraine a few days ago, touting the help Canadian Forces are giving to Ukrainian troops - and he attacked Russia, calling the

actions of Vladimir Putin’s regime illegitimate, irresponsible, undemocratic and illegal. Among other things. Oh, and the much-criticized C-51 anti-terror law? Still on the books. And selling arms to the serial human rights abusers who run Saudi Arabia? Still happening. Plenty have noticed the change in the Liberal leader. Postmedia’s Matthew Fisher now refers to Trudeau as “Canada’s unlikely Cold war warrior” and even “a warmonger.” The Toronto Star’s Tom Walkom notes, disapprovingly, that Trudeau “is sinking more, not less, into war.” And Trudeau’s military commitments are “stretch[ing] the Canadian military to the limit,” says the Globe and Mail’s John Ibbitson. None of this is bound to please those New Democrat voters Trudeau captured in 2015. By embracing a more pugilistic foreign and defence policy, Trudeau risks alienating the very people who helped propel him to power. But - the Saudi arms dealing notwithstanding - the change in Trudeau’s worldview is a welcome one, and overdue. It seems that our prime minister has finally come to accept that Canadians are not only proud peacekeepers. We are, and always have been, proud peace-makers, too.

Prime Minister Theresa May’s Brexit strategy GWYNNE DYER OPINION

o far, so good. Boris Johnson, the face of the “Out” side in last month’s Brexit referendum and now Britain’s new Foreign Secretary, got through his first encounter with the 27 other foreign ministers of European Union countries on Monday without insulting anybody. They were gathered in Brussels for a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, and “Boris” was on his best behaviour. He didn’t call anybody a “monosyllabic Austrian cyborg” (Arnold Schwartzenegger) or “a crosseyed Texan warmonger” (George W. Bush). The poem he wrote in May about Turkish President Recep Tayyib Erdogan having sex with a goat - just google Turkish President Offensive Poetry Competition - didn’t come up as there were no Turks present. There were no Russians at the Brussels meeting either, so nobody objected to his recent remark that President Vladimir Putin looks like Dobbie the House Elf.

Hillary Clinton as a woman with “dyed blonde hair and pouty lips, and a steely blue stare, like a sadistic nurse in a mental hospital.” Boris is the Clown Prince of British journalism, but you have to admit that he is a very odd choice for chief British diplomat. He wasn’t the only surprising choice that new Prime Minister Theresa May made in filling her cabinet. The man who gets the tricky job of negotiating the terms of Britain’s exit from the European Union is David Davies - who as recently as two months ago thought that this could be done by making trade deals separately with each EU member. (They always negotiate as a bloc.) But Davies was a leading Brexiteer during the referendum campaign, so he gets the job anyway. Liam Fox, the new Secretary of State for International Trade, who will have the thankless task of negotiating new trade deals with countries around the world to make up for Britain’s lost trade with Europe - deals that cannot come into effect until the U.K. has actually left the EU - was also a leading voice in the pro-Brexit campaign. So May (who was in favour of “Remain,” and probably still secretly thinks it would have been the better outcome) has chosen the three most prominent Brexiteers to deal with the hugely difficult task of finding a way News News tips 403-314-4333 Sports line 403-343-2244 News fax 403-341-6560 Sports reporter 403-314-4338 editorial@reddeeradvocate.com

for the United Kingdom to leave the EU without ending up in the poorhouse. Johnson, Davies and Fox are certainly not the three best negotiators for the job, so what is she up to? One part of her strategy is obvious: “Keep your enemies close.” With the three leading Brexiteers in the cabinet, they will have less time and opportunity to plot against her. But another adage also applies: “Give your enemies enough rope, and they’ll hang themselves.” The Brexiteers won the referendum by promising that exit from the EU would be easy and painless. So let them take charge of negotiating that exit - and let them take the blame for the very painful terms that Britain will probably have to accept as the price of leaving. Will they be worse terms than a different negotiating team might achieve? Johnson is profoundly unpopular in Europe: France’s foreign minister, Jean-Marc Ayrault, told French radio that Johnson “told a lot of lies to the British people and now it is him who has his back against the wall.” But a more charming (or at least less insulting) British foreign secretary would probably get the same deal. It’s not really about personalities. The great advantage for May in having the Three Brexiteers negotiate the deal is that nobody will be able to say that a more devoted team would

have got a better deal. And maybe by then she will even be able to say that the deal is so bad that the U.K. should have another referendum (or a general election) about it before actually leaving. She can’t say that now, so she just says “Brexit is Brexit.” But at least two years will pass before the outcome of the exit negotiations is known, and by then many things may have changed. The British pound may be worth even less (some suggest that it will be at par with the U.S. dollar). The British economy will probably be in a recession, and maybe a full-scale financial crisis, as foreign investment dries up and the huge British trade deficit becomes unmanageable. Jobs will have begun to disappear in large numbers, and British voters may be in a quite different mood than they are today. Or maybe they will be even angrier at the stupid foreigners who won’t accept that the world owes them a living. You can’t really predict how the politics will play out. But May loses nothing by letting the leading Brexiteers try to make their promises come true - and when they fail, as they inevitably will, it might even create a chance to reverse the verdict of last month’s referendum.

Mother, daughter laid to rest LOVED ONES CELEBRATE SLAIN CALGARY MOM, DAUGHTER WITH DANCING AND POETRY BY THE CANADIAN PRESS CALGARY — Loved ones of a slain mother and daughter celebrated their lives with one of the pair’s favourite activities - dancing. More than a thousand people attended the memorial service Thursday for Sara Baillie, 34, and her five-year-old daughter, Taliyah Marsman. “I’m tired of mourning. I want an opportunity to celebrate, and this is it,” said Baillie’s uncle, Scott Hamilton. With that, he and his son Justin pulled sunglasses out of their suit pockets, put them on and gave each other a high-five. Michael Jackson’s Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough started playing and the men started to dance. Guests stood and joined in. “If there’s anything that Taliyah and Sara loved to do, it was dance,” said Hamilton, who said his family lovingly nicknamed the girl “T.” Taliyah’s father, Colin Marsman, compiled a slide show with pictures of the curly-haired little girl mugging for the camera, playing in a park, colouring and dressed up for a dance recital. At the front of the church sanctuary was a table with two urns, stuffed animals, flowers, a sequined red dance outfit and a soccer jersey. Agatha Mardinger, Taliyah’s stepsister, said her life was changed the moment the two met. “She was kind, smart, beautiful and full of light,” she said. Taliyah’s cousin, Nina Cox, recited a poem that was written by the girl’s great uncle called Message to Daddy. “Hold our love close and tight and I’ll promise to visit you in your dreams at night,” she read. “I didn’t mean to leave you so soon. Now I’m dancing with Grampy to our favourite tune.” The church was regaled with stories of Baillie accidentally reversing a car into a closed garage door when she was a teenager, getting soaked in a car wash when she failed to roll up her windows and wearing a Christmas wreath as a party hat to cheer up a friend. Tawny Poelzer, who met Baillie while working at Boston Pizza, said her friend had a way with people. “I knew that between our craziness and ridicu-

Poelzer said Taliyah was like Baillie’s “Mini Me” and recalled a time the girl made everyone laugh with her “scary roar.” Baillie’s mother, Janet Fredette, spoke briefly to reporters before the service. “We are, of course, overcome with grief by the unnecessary loss of two beautiful members of our family,” Fredette read from a family statement. “Despite our grief we are also overwhelmed by the strength that this community has given us.

“The Calgary Police Service, our friends and hundreds, if not thousands, of unknown community members have shown us how to be strong. “Thank you for your support Calgary, Alberta and Canada.” Baillie was found dead in her northwest Calgary home on July 11, but Taliyah was not there and an Amber Alert was issued. The little girl’s body was found days later in a rural area east of the city. A Calgary man, Edward Downey, faces two counts of first-degree murder.

Premiers say potential trade deal needs work WHITEHORSE — The elusive goal of interprovincial free trade remained just that Thursday afternoon as premiers struggled with “a small number” of unresolved issues. “There are a small number of outstanding issues that are, by nature, very complex,” said Quebec Premier Philippe Couillard in Whitehorse where the premiers are gathered for their summer meeting. “The toughest issues are always left for the end, so it’s going to be requiring more work, but I’m not giving up on the possibility of a deal while we are here.” Couillard said a deal could go forward without consensus on the movement of wine and beer, but that wouldn’t serve interests of producers or consumers. Alberta’s Rachel Notley and Brad Wall of Saskatchewan met privately over Alberta’s recent markup on beer, but deferred the issue to officials. “We want these issues resolved while we are here,” said Couillard, sounding less positive about the possibility than he had earlier in the day. “It would not be useful to come out of here with these issues not resolved.” The comments came at the end of a day which saw the provincial and territorial leaders take on everything from carbon pricing to legalizing marijuana to health-care funding. Asked about recent comments from Prime Minister Justin Trudeau about the need for a national price on carbon, Saskatchewan’s Brad Wall bristled at the fact Trudeau made his comments before a federal-provincial working group had a chance to report on it - although Trudeau said nothing about how that price would implemented. “If that’s to be a legitimate process, why then is

the prime minister and the environment minister seemingly precluding the work of the committee?” he asked. “The prime minister’s committed to a much more collaborative process with the provinces. “With the previous government, there wasn’t much talk about working collaboratively so there were no surprises, but, frankly, I’m not sure which is better.” Several premiers said they want quick action from the federal government on the legalization of marijuana to prevent a patchwork of enforcement and distribution across the country. “There’s real concerns,” said Manitoba Premier

Brian Pallister before heading into the meeting. “It’s one of the issues I want to raise today,” he said. “I would hope we can develop a national approach, a co-operative approach.” British Columbia’s Christy Clark echoed Pallister’s worries around public health, safety and distribution. “We need to see the federal legislation,” she said. “We will build a system focused on safety.” Wall said he’s most concerned about consistent enforcement across Canada when it comes to marijuana use.

Man convicted of sexually assaulting grad student

Canada

from joining - or get them kicked out. The Canada Border Services Agency has launched a month-long consultation on the proposals to tighten eligibility. Trusted traveller programs are intended to speed the flow of low-risk, known citizens across borders by steering them into express queues, giving security officers more time to focus limited resources on those who may pose a higher risk. Nexus, with about 1.2 million members, is jointly administered by the Canadian and U.S. border agencies. Currently, someone must be “of good character” to be a member.

TORONTO — The victim of a sexual assault says she will not congratulate the legal system for doing its job following the conviction Thursday of the man who attacked her. Toronto’s Mustafa Ururyar forced Mandi Gray, with whom he was having a casual relationship, to perform oral sex and engage in sexual intercourse in the early hours of Jan. 31, 2015, a judge ruled Thursday. Gray, who waived the standard publication ban on the identity of complainants in sexual assault cases, said her “numerous and intersecting privileges” of being a white, heterosexual woman with a graduate-level education allowed her case to go to trial and made her experience atypical. “I am tired of people talking to me like I won some sort of rape lottery because the legal system did what it is supposed to do,” she said in a written statement released after the conviction. “Both the judge and Crown did their jobs well,” she added. “But this should not be out of the ordinary in sexual assault cases… I will not congratulate the legal system, or the various courtroom actors, for doing what they are supposed to do.”

BRIEFS Inquiry will have to examine police conduct, child welfare system: Bennett OTTAWA — Policing will require close examination during the inquiry into murdered and missing indigenous women, Indigenous Affairs Minister Carolyn Bennett said Thursday after questions were raised about a draft copy of the terms of reference. The “uneven application of justice” - including everything from the quality of police searches to investigations themselves - will require review because outcomes seem to be affected if victims are indigenous women, Bennett said. This is precisely why the federal government needs to get provinces and territories, currently reviewing the terms, on side with the inquiry’s mandate because policing and other issues cross jurisdictional boundaries, she said. “This was the difference between a federal inquiry and a national public inquiry and none of that has changed,” Bennett said. The minister’s remarks come a day after draft terms of reference for the inquiry were circulated online. They did not explicitly state the need to examine the role of police or their conduct.

Trial for woman accused of hiding infant remains in storage locker on hold WINNIPEG — The trial of a Winnipeg woman accused of concealing the remains of six infants in a storage locker is on hold until the end of August. The judge wants written submissions from both sides on the issue of spousal privilege, and how much the husband of the accused can be required to disclose about communications with his wife. Andrea Giesbrecht was arrested in October 2014 after the remains were found in plastic containers in a storage locker she rented. Medical experts have testified the infants were at or near full term, and some of the remains were very decomposed. Giesbrecht’s husband, Jeremy, testified this week that he was unaware of the storage locker and of the six pregnancies that the Crown says led to the infant remains being hidden. Spouses can agree to waive their right to privilege and testify about

Feds looking to keep criminals, spies out of trusted traveller programs OTTAWA — A criminal conviction could make you ineligible for membership in a trusted traveller program like Nexus under planned new rules that clearly spell out what will stop people

communications with their partner. At issue is whether Jeremy Giesbrecht can agree to testify about only some discussions with his wife or whether that would open the door to all discussions.

Halifax police investigate fifth sex assault allegedly involving cab driver Halifax police are investigating an alleged fifth sexual assault involving a cab driver, and say the suspect’s description raises the possibility of a connection with other recent attacks. “There’s some similarities in some of the suspect descriptions, so we’re looking at…the possibility that there could be the same individual in some of the instances, at least,” said Halifax Regional Police Const. Dianne Woodworth in an interview Thursday. The most recent incident, reported to police on July 19, is the fifth alleged sexual assault since May in which a victim described being assaulted by a cab driver. A 44-year-old man was charged earlier this month, shortly after one of the alleged assaults. “It’s always a concern whenever we have people that are sexually assaulted, but five in a short duration is very concerning…These are positions of trust, you’re getting into a vehicle thinking that you’re going to be taken home safely,” said Woodworth. A woman told police she was picked up in Halifax between 8:30 and 9:30 p.m. on July 15 by a man driving a car with a roof light. The vehicle was a white, older-model four-door car. Police say the man tried to kiss the woman, locked her door and touched her in a “sexual manner” over her clothing without her consent. The woman was able to get out of the car.

Adamson holds lead after day two BY ADVOCATE STAFF After two days of chuckwagons at the Westerner, Lee Adamson has developed a one second lead on two competitors. Adamson improved on his opening night 1:19.10 with a 1:16 Thursday night. Kevin Desjarlais and Brian Miller had similar times in a night that was noticeably faster for the field than the opening night on Wednesday. Desjar-

lais came in second and Miller came in third. The Red Deer Motors North American Pony Chuckwagon Championship wrapped up its second night at the Westerner Days on Thursday evening. Neil Sammond finished the night in fourth while Reed Rosencrans finished in fifth Thursday night. After two days, Adamson (2:35) is one second ahead of both Desjarlais and Dale Young at 2:36. Keith Wood is in fourth place while Cole Adamson is

in fifth The final heat proved to be the fastest in the opening night of the chuckwagons. Three of the four racers in the heat finished the night in the top five. Adamson led his heat and the field of 56 with a time of 1:19.02. Young, also in the final heat, is tied for second with a time of 1:19.10. Ryan Braaten tied with Young from the third heat of the night. Wood, who was a part of that fast final heat, is in fourth place with a time

of 1:19.48. Rounding out the top five is Adamson, who in the ninth heat had a time of 1:19.52. Hundredths of a second separate Adamson from sixth place Desjarlais, who had a time in the 10th heat of 1:19.52. Round three of the Red Deer Motors North American Pony Chuckwagon Championships go tonight at 6:30 p.m. at the Westerner.

Stamps take advantage of Bomber turnovers BY THE CANADIAN PRESS Stampeders 33 Blue Bombers 18 WINNIPEG — Bo Levi Mitchell knows the Calgary Stampeders are a confident group. The quarterback got more evidence of that in Calgary’s 33-18 victory over the Winnipeg Blue Bombers on Thursday. Stamps receiver Bakari Grant fumbled a catch in the first quarter that Winnipeg recovered. Mitchell said rookie linebacker Alex Singleton told him not to worry, that the defence would get the ball back in one play. Two plays later, Winnipeg receiver Weston Dressler fumbled a catch and Calgary recovered — a possession that led to a Marquay McDaniel 10-yard touchdown reception at 10:37 for a 7-3 lead the Stampeders never relinquished. “That’s just the mindset our team has — to create turnovers, help each other out. That’s how teams win,” Mitchell said. The Stampeders (2-1-1) took advantage of three Winnipeg turnovers to score a trio of touchdowns. Anthony Parker also caught a 28-yard TD pass after the Bombers turned the ball over on downs, while defensive back Joe Burnett intercepted quarterback Drew Willy and ran 34 yards into the end zone for another. “That’s the type of effort that coach (Dave Dickenson) absolutely wants us to have,” said Burnett, whose major made it 26-10 at 5:29 of the fourth quarter. “I think he preached about that all week — coming out and starting fast, playing fast and someone making a big play.” Burnett’s TD led to Winnipeg head coach Mike O’Shea replacing Willy with Matt Nichols — a quarterback change Winnipeg fans and critics have been asking for. The Bombers fell to 1-4 in front of 24,677 fans at a hot, humid Investors

Group Field. The team hasn’t won a game at home in its past six tries. Winnipeg did attempt another late comeback, similar to a failed attempt in a July 1 Calgary victory. Nichols threw an 18-yard TD strike to Dressler at 7:32 of the fourth and a two-point convert pass to Dressler that was good. That closed the score 26-18, but Mitchell marched the Stamps down the field and connected with Grant on a 33-yard pass he dove for. That set up a five-yard TD catch in the back of the end zone by Simon Charbonneau-Campeau with 2:26 left. The victory was Calgary’s 14th straight after a bye week and eighth straight in Winnipeg. Mitchell completed 29-of-41 pass attempts for 310 yards, three TDs and one interception. Calgary placekicker Rene Paredes connected on field goals from 49 and 34 yards. He missed two of his four convert attempts to give him five point-after misses this season. Rob Maver added a punt single for the Stamps. Winnipeg kicker Justin Medlock was good on field goals from 46, 42 and 37 yards out and had a punt roll into the end zone for a single. Willy went 23-of-33 for 234 yards, one interception and no TDs. Nichols was 9-of-15 for 88 yards, the one TD and no picks. O’Shea wouldn’t confirm which pivot would start next week in Edmonton against the Eskimos, saying he’ll talk to the coaches. He explained he put Nichols in after the Burnett TD because Willy tried to force the throw. “Can’t fault him for trying,” O’Shea said. Nichols said he’s not thinking about starting next week, while Willy will accept whatever hand he’s dealt.

Dustin Johnson blasts out of the bunker on the ninth hole at the 2016 Canadian Open in Oakville, Ont., on Thursday.

Johnson and Luke List co-leaders at hot, dry Canadian Open BY THE CANADIAN PRESS OAKVILLE, Ont. — Dustin Johnson and Luke List may be co-leaders, but it’s the weather that’s dominating play at the RBC Canadian Open. Johnson made an eagle putt on the par-5 18th hole at Glen Abbey Golf Club to tie clubhouse leader List at 6-under 66 on Thursday to loud applause. Johnson seemed out of contention for the first-round lead after a double bogey on 14, but then recovered with a birdie on 16 to set up the climactic shot. Most players struggled with the fast greens and fairways, making it tricky to play off the browned rough and not roll through the harder grass as a drought continues to dry out southern Ontario. High winds had flags ripping wildly and played havoc with high shots, making it difficult to play an accurate long game. “It’s firm and fast,” said world No.

Murray Crawford, sports reporter, 403-314-4338 E-mail mcrawford@reddeeradvocate.com

2 Johnson moments after stepping off the course. “It’s definitely tough to get the ball close to the hole. You’ve really got to land the ball on your numbers. “With it being as windy as it was today, it was tough to do that.” List had a birdie on No. 10, his first hole of the round, then followed it up with a birdie on Nos. 13, 15, 16 and 18 to take an early lead. He stayed steady through the front nine to finish ahead on a hot, sunny day. He pointed to his early start time — 7:20 am — as helping with his quick start. “I was very fortunate that the first five holes there wasn’t much wind at all and then it kind of picked up,” said List, who was allowed him to miss the worst of the unforgiving weather. Strong winds especially affected play on the back nine of Glen Abbey, which are mainly in a valley. See OPEN on Page B2

Froome in firm lead at Tour de France BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MEGEVE, France — Chris Froome won a mountain time trial and opened up a seemingly insurmountable lead of nearly four minutes over his closest challenger in the 18th stage of the Tour de France on Thursday. Riding in a yellow bodysuit and yellow aerodynamic helmet, Froome pumped his right fist after clocking slightly more than half an hour over the 17-kilometre (10.5-mile) route from Sallanches to the Megeve ski resort — which featured majestic views of Mont Blanc. “He deserves his win. He’s the strongest,” said cycling great Eddy Merckx, a five-time Tour winner. “I can’t see what could prevent him from keeping this yellow jersey until Paris. His opponents just stay on his teammates’ wheels. Barring an incident, nobody can beat him on this Tour.” Taking his second stage win of this year’s Tour, Froome finished 21 seconds ahead of Dutch rider Tom Dumoulin. Froome’s overall lead of 3 minutes, 52 seconds over Dutch rider Bauke Mollema will be difficult to erase over the final two Alpine stages before Sunday’s mostly ceremonial finish on the Champs-Elysees in Paris. “The main thing for me now is staying safe,” Froome said. “Obviously I’ve got a fantastic advantage now. So now it’s about looking after that advantage and not taking any risks. “It’s not over until we cross that final finish line, but today is a huge boost of confidence,” Froome added. “I think over these next couple of days we’re going to see more of a race for podium spots.” Froome stood only fifth at the first checkpoint, the top of the Cote de Domancy climb, but the British rider clearly saved energy for the second half of the stage, surging in front over the final kilometres. “It was a pulsating race, but I knew it was going to be difficult. I was expecting to lose,” said Dumoulin, who rode 90 minutes before the race leader. “Froome just showed he is the strongest.” Spanish Vuelta champion Fabio

Fans cheers as Britain’s Chris Froome, wearing the overall leader’s yellow jersey, passes during the eighteenth stage of the Tour de France cycling race, an individual time trial over 17 kilometers with start in Sallanches and finish in Megeve, France, Thursday. Aru of Italy finished third in the stage, 33 seconds behind. It was the Tour’s first mountain time trial since the 2004 race against the clock up l’Alpe d’Huez. Besides the flat opening four kilometres (2.5 miles) and a short descent at the finish, it was entirely uphill. Adam Yates of Britain remained third overall, 4:16 behind, and twotime runner-up Nairo Quintana stayed fourth but now trails by 4:37 after another difficult day for the Colombian. Froome’s other stage win this year came with an audacious downhill attack in Stage 8 in the Pyrenees. The

Kenyan-born rider with Team Sky also won a time trial in the 2013 Tour, when he took his first overall victory. Having also won the Tour last year, Froome is on course for his third title in four years. Considering that most of the route was uphill, many riders used road bikes fitted with bars to lay their arms on for a more aerodynamic position. Froome was one of the few riders to use a full time trial setup with an aerodynamic rear disc wheel instead of traditional spokes. “I think that was a big part of today’s stage, selecting the right equip-

ment,” Froome said. “The other aspect of today was pacing. It was important not to go too fast too early.” Fans lined the major climb of the route, the Cote de Domancy, getting up close to the riders to shout encouragement — with glaciers and snowcapped mountains in the distance. Stage 19 on Friday follows a 146-kilometre (91-mile) route over four ascents from Albertville to Saint-Gervais Mont Blanc. The penultimate leg on Saturday concludes with a tricky descent to Morzine after four more climbs through the Alps.

In stark contrast, the struggling Saskatchewan Roughriders haven’t picked up a win and suffered another blow last week when starting quarterback Darian Durant injured his ankle. Despite what appears to be a mismatch on paper, the Redblacks (3-0-1) head into Regina on Friday aware that any team coached by Chris Jones is sure to rise to the pressure. “This is not a case about one team being better than the other, they just haven’t found a way to win a game yet,” said Redblacks head coach Rick Campbell. “Our guys aren’t going to fall for that one, especially in Regina with the crowd and how a tough a place it is to get a win.” Ottawa quarterback Trevor Harris said the Riders have been in games with some of the CFL’s top teams. “We both took Edmonton to overtime so that shows how close the teams are,” said Harris. “It’s a battle every single week and they have some great players and we know that if you don’t bring it every single week you’re going to lose.” Harris, who took over for the injured Henry Burris in the season opener, has been instrumental to the Redblacks’ success. He leads all QBs with 1,475 passing yards and nine touchdowns and has thrown just one interception. Harris, signed by Ottawa in the off-season, has found instant chemistry with his receivers with Chris Williams and Greg Ellingson. Williams leads the CFL in receptions (31), receiving yards (556) and

touchdowns (6), while Ellingson is tied for second in receptions (25) and is second in receiving yards (439) and has one touchdown. “Every receiver wants the ball, but we have an unselfish group and we also know that when it’s your time and your opportunity you have to make the plays,” said Ellingson. “You’re not going to get the ball and get the yards every game, but if they want to put two over Chris and leave somebody else open or try to put two over on my side or anything like that we have other guys who can make plays and we’re not scared to throw it to those guys.” Those other guys include Brad Sinopoli and Ernest Jackson who have also made significant contributions with 22 and 19 receptions respectively. “It’s like you have four weapons instead of one or two and any time you have four you can pick up one at any time and one of them is going to be open,” said Harris. “The thing with our guys is they each have such different strengths and they play differently to different defences so it makes it difficult on defences. I wouldn’t want to be a D-co-ordinator trying to play against this group of guys.” Without the injury-prone Durant, the Roughriders (0-3) backup Mitchell Gale will make his first career start. Gale is in his fifth CFL season but has played sparingly as a depth quarterback in Toronto and Hamilton. He looked solid coming in for Durant in Saskatchewan’s loss to B.C .last week, completing 17-of-30 pass attempts for 247 yards and a touchdown. “We know Mitchell Gale is a solid person, he’s prepared all his life for this opportunity,” Jones told reporters in Regina on Thursday. “He ain’t got no jitters. He ain’t nervous.” The Redblacks made some roster changes for Friday’s game as Forrest Hightower, Jerrell Gavins and Mitchell White will start. The injuries weren’t being used as excuses by O’Shea or defensive back Maurice Leggett. “Get hurt, next man up,” Leggett said. “It’s a professional league…. No matter what, there’s no excuses.”

STAMPS: Stay ready and execute

OPEN: Strange shots

“I would love to (start), but … I’m going to watch the film, try to get better, always be a professional and be ready to go,” Willy said. “There’s nothing I can do about it except stay ready and execute.” O’Shea gave no updates on a slew on injuries his players suffered. The Bombers lost defensive backs Chris Randle, Macho Harris and Julian Posey, as well as offensive linemen Patrick Neufeld and Jermarkus Hardwick. Backup defensive lineman Jake Thomas had to move to the offensive side of the ball in the third quarter.

High shots would get grabbed by the wind when the ball lofted above the valley’s walls, creating strange shots. The seventh hole also frustrated several players, with a water hazard and several bunkers surrounding the green, forcing golfers to loft the ball above a tree line and then get victimized by the wind. “If you miss the fairway, you’re pretty much done, there’s no chance of keeping it on the green,” said world No. 1 Jason Day, the reigning Canadian Open champion. “My mentality is

Carlos (The Natural Born Killer) Condit says it will up be to him to raise the excitement level in his main event bout with Demian Maia on Aug. 27 in Vancouver. Condit, a prickly striker ranked fifth among UFC welterweight contenders, is known for putting on a show. Witness his last outing when he connected on 176 significant strikes in a split-decision five-round loss to champion (Ruthless) Robbie Lawler at UFC 195 in January. Condit believes Maia, CARLOS a Brazilian jiu-jitsu master ranked third among 170-pound contenders, is less appealing to watch despite his current five-fight win streak. “I think Maia’s a great fighter,” Condit said Thursday on a visit to Vancouver to promote the televised card at Rogers Arena. “His striking has definitely improved. He fights safe, though. “For all intents and purposes, he should be the No. 1 contender with a title shot. But he’s a boring fighter. He doesn’t take risks. And therefore doesn’t create a lot of buzz, a lot of energy around him or his fights. That being said, my goal is to make this guy fight. That’s what I need to do. I need to make this exciting, like I tend to do. If I do that, I can win — I know I can win.” Maia (23-6-0) has disposed of Alexander Yakovlev, Ryan LaFlare, Neil Magny, Gunnar Nelson and Matt (The Immortal) Brown on his recent run. Prior to that he had back-to-back losses to Canadian Rory MacDonald and Jake Shields. A former middleweight who lost a five-round decision to then-champion Anderson Silva at UFC 112 in 2010, Maia has won 17 of 23 UFC bouts col-

lecting six fight bonuses en route. The 38-year-old Brazilian has won eight of 10 welterweight contests. Condit (30-8-0) is equally experienced. A former World Extreme Cagefighting champion, Condit won all five of his WEC fights before moving to the UFC where he beat Nick Diaz for the interim 170-pound title at UFC 143 in 2012, only to lose a unification bout to Montreal’s Georges St. Pierre later that year at UFC 154. The 32-year-old from Albuquerque, N.M., has won seven of 12 UFC fights and has earned 10 fight bonuses during his UFC-WEC days. Three of his UFC losses were to current or future champions (Lawler, St-Pierre and Johny Hendricks). A fourth came when he blew out his knee against Tyron Woodley. CONDIT Condit lost his UFC debut by split decision to Martin (The Hitman) Kampmann. Condit has fought in Vancouver before, mounting a memorable thirdround rally to beat MacDonald at UFC 115 in June 2010. The Condit-Maia fight was originally slated for the main card of UFC 202 on Aug. 20 but was shifted earlier this week to Vancouver. Condit says he had no problems with the move. “If anything the extra rounds (as a main event fight, it will be five rounds instead of three) are something to be considered with regards to training. But you know what, same game plan, same opponent, same problems to solve. So yeah, I don’t see it as too much of a difference.” Many thought Condit had won the Lawler fight and there was talk afterwards that Condit might retire. Condit says he is proud of his performance that night. “The decision didn’t go my way. It was a very, very close fight. It is what it is and that’s the nature of the sport. You don’t finish a fight, the judges make their decision and you have to live with that … Win or lose, it was a fun fight and a great experience.”

just trying to get it up there as far as I can. As long I can just keep driving it straight, try to get up there somewhere around the green, if I miss it then I’ve got a wedge in my hand and hopefully I can hit it high and get it stuck on the green.” Amateur Jared du Toit of Kimberley, B.C., eagled the par-4 17th hole at Glen Abbey Golf Club, then birdied 18 to enter the clubhouse in a tie for third at 5-under 67. Americans Chesson Hadley and Kelly Kraft were also at 5-under. Day was 3-under 69. Du Toit compared playing at Glen Abbey on Thursday to playing in the desert. “Going to Arizona State, I’ve played in a lot of dry conditions, so I think the conditions today were kind of in my favour,” said the 21-year old NCAA player, who added that “some of the drives are just running out outrageously.” Amateur Garret Rank (69) of Elmira,

Ont., who is a professional hockey referee, was the second lowest Canadian behind du Toit. Rank made an eagle putt from the rough edge of the green on 18 to finish at 3 under. Adam Hadwin of Abbotsford, B.C., shot a 72 to finish the first round at par, while David Hearn of Brantford, Ont., was 2-over 74. Adam Cornelson of Langley, B.C., Corey Conners of Listowel, Ont., and Nick Taylor of Abbotsford are tied at 3 over. Olympian Graham DeLaet of Weyburn, Sask., amateur Blair Hamilton of Burlington, Ont., and Ottawa’s Brad Fritsch all tied at 5-over 77, and Mike Weir of Brights Grove, Ont., and Branson Ferrier of Barrie, Ont., were grouped together at 6-over 78. Amateur Hugo Bernard of Mont-Saint-Hilaire, Que., was 9-over 81 and Montreal’s Dave Levesque was 13-over 85.

Russians lose track appeal IOC TO WEIGH TOTAL BAN FOR RIO BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS LONDON — Now that Russian track and field athletes have failed in their effort to have their Olympic ban overturned, it’s up to the IOC to decide whether to kick the entire Russian team out of the games that begin in Rio de Janeiro in 15 days. In another blow to the image of the sports superpower, the highest court in sports on Friday dismissed an appeal by 68 Russian track athletes of the ban imposed by the IAAF following allegations of systematic and state-sponsored doping. Sports officials in Moscow condemned the ruling as “political,” and said some athletes might take their case to civil courts. Two-time Olympic pole vault champion Yelena Isinbayeva said the Rio Games will be devalued, with only “pseudo-gold medals” available. In its ruling, the Court of Arbitration for Sport found that track and field’s world governing body, the IAAF, had properly applied its own rules in keeping the Russians out of the games that begin Aug. 5. The three-man panel ruled that the Russian Olympic Committee “is not entitled to nominate Russian track and field athletes to compete at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games considering that they are not eligible to participate under the IAAF competition rules.” The Russians had argued against a collective ban, saying it punishes those athletes who have not been accused of wrongdoing. The IAAF praised the decision, saying: “Today’s judgment has created a level playing field for athletes.” IAAF President Sebastian Coe, who has declared the ban is crucial to protecting the integrity of the competition, said it was “not a day for triumphant statements.” “I didn’t come into this sport to stop

Russian high jumper Ivan Ukhov competes during the Russian Athletics Cup, at Zhukovsky, outside Moscow, Russia, Thursday. Russia lost its appeal Thursday against the Olympic ban on its track and field athletes, a decision which could add pressure on the IOC to exclude the country entirely from next month’s games in Rio de Janeiro. athletes from competing,” he said. “It is our federation’s instinctive desire to include, not exclude.” Russian Sports Minister Vitaly Mutko suggested Russia could take the case to a civil court. CAS general secretary Matthieu Reeb said the Russians have the right to appeal to the Swiss federal tribunal within 30 days, but only on “procedural grounds,” not the merits of the decision. Olympic bodies and athletes sign up to CAS jurisdiction, and its rulings have very rarely been overturned. Reeb said the ruling is not binding on the International Olympic Committee, which has the final say as the supreme organizer of the games. However, the IOC last month accepted the IAAF decision to maintain its ban on the Russian athletes. “The door is open for the IOC to de-

cide, to determine even on a case-bycase principle whether these athletes are eligible or not,” Reeb told reporters outside the court headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland. While the ruling clears the way for other individual sports federations to apply similar bans on Russians, it also increases pressure on the IOC to take the unprecedented step of excluding the whole Russian team. The IOC has never banned an entire country from the games for doping, and the last time Russia missed the Olympics was in 1984, when the Soviet Union boycotted the Los Angeles Games. The World Anti-Doping Agency, along with many national anti-doping bodies and athletes groups, have called on the IOC to impose a total ban on Russia following fresh allegations

of state-orchestrated cheating across dozens of Olympic sports. Canadian lawyer Richard McLaren, who was commissioned by WADA, issued a scathing report Monday that accused Russia’s Sports Ministry of orchestrating a doping system that affected 28 summer and winter Olympic sports. Officers of Russia’s intelligence service, the FSB, were also involved in the cheating, which included swapping of doping samples at the 2014 Winter Games in Sochi, McLaren found. On Tuesday, the IOC executive board said it would “explore the legal options” for a possible total ban on Russia but would wait until after the CAS ruling before making a final decision. The IOC executive board is scheduled to hold another emergency meeting Sunday via teleconference to consider the issue. In a statement Thursday, the IOC said it “takes note” of the CAS ruling upholding the track and field ban. “We will now have to study and analyze the full decision,” the IOC said. “The IOC decision on the participation of the Russian athletes will be taken in the coming days.” Former WADA president Dick Pound, an IOC member from Canada, accused the IOC of dithering and said the committee does not show the appetite to apply a total ban. “You’ve got the power to simply withdraw the invitation and say, ‘Sorry, your country has not demonstrated any understanding or respect of rules for clean competition. You’re not welcome,”’ Pound said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. Pound, who authored a WADA report last year that detailed cheating in Russia and led to the IAAF ban, criticized the IOC for suggesting that individual federations could decide whether to exclude Russian athletes in their own sports, rather than imposing a complete ban itself. “Why is the IOC not acting in the face of incontrovertible evidence of government interference?” he said. “What else do you need?”

NBA moving All-Star Game out of Charlotte, cites LGBT law The NBA is moving the 2017 All-Star Game out of Charlotte because of its objections to a North Carolina law that limits anti-discrimination protections for lesbian, gay and transgender people. The league had expressed its opposition to the law known as HB2 since it was enacted in March, and its decision Thursday came less than a month after state legislators revisited the law and chose to leave it largely unchanged. “While we recognize that the NBA cannot choose the law in every city, state, and country in which we do business, we do not believe we can successfully host our All-Star festivities in Charlotte in the climate created by HB2,” the league said in a statement. The league added that it hoped to announce a new location for next February’s events shortly. It hopes to reschedule the 2019 game for Charlotte if there is a resolution to the matter. “We understand the NBA’s decision and the challenges around holding the NBA All-Star Game in Charlotte this season. There was an exhaustive effort from all parties to keep the event in Charlotte, and we are disappointed we were unable to do so,” Hornets chairman and Hall of Famer Michael

Jordan said. “With that said, we are vision requiring transgender people pleased that the NBA opened the door to use restrooms corresponding to the for Charlotte to host All-Star weekend sex on their birth certificates in many again as soon as an opportunity was public buildings - a measure at the available in heart of two 2019.” legal challeng‘WE UNDERSTAND THE The league’s es in federal NBA’S DECISION AND THE decision was court.

“The sports and entertainment elite, Attorney General Roy Cooper and the liberal media have for months misrepresented our laws and maligned the people of North Carolina simply because most people believe boys and girls should be able to use school bathrooms, locker rooms and showers without the opposite sex present,” McCrory said in a statement issued by his office. The law has drawn opposition from a number of entertainers who have cancelled performances in North Carolina. Duke recently had to replace one of its games scheduled for next season when Albany was prevented from travelling to Raleigh by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo’s travel ban. “So our state’s lost a lot,” Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said Thursday. The fate of the state law is likely to be decided in federal courts where dueling lawsuits are being heard, with a judge saying he wants to start trial in four of the five cases by early November. He’s also set an Aug. 1 hearing on a motion for a preliminary injunction to block the law’s bathroom access provision. Charlotte officials have said they expected the event to have an economic impact of around $100 million, based on data from recent All-Star Games in the comparable New Orleans and Orlando market

Trump heavy on nostalgia, light on specifics BY THE CANADIAN PRESS CLEVELAND — Donald Trump delivered the most important speech of his young political career borrowing from an old message, drawn from the same nostalgic well as his campaign slogan about making America great again. His campaign staff had signalled this week that he would reach back for inspiration from the 1968 law-andorder address by Richard Nixon that began with a dual lament about disorder - chaos in the streets at home, and spiralling violence abroad. In 1968, it was race-related riots in inner cities and deaths in Vietnam. In 2016, it’s race-related unrest over police shootings and the deaths from terrorism in Nice, Paris, Brussels, Orlando and San Bernardino. “Americans watching this address tonight have seen the recent images of violence in our streets and the chaos in our communities,” said Trump’s prepared text. “Many have witnessed this violence personally, some have even been its victims. I have a message for all of you: the crime and violence that today afflicts our nation will soon - and I mean very soon - come to an end. Beginning on January 20th 2017, safety will be restored.” He said the country and the world were far less stable than when President Barack Obama made the decision to put his foreign policy in the hands of Hillary Clinton, whom he derided as “a corrupt puppet” of special interests. Trump delivered this message to thunderous applause from a party that once resisted him. He strode to the stage and kissed his daughter Ivanka, who attempted to sand off some of the hard edges on her unpopular dad with a gentle introduction and messaging directed at both Democrats and Republicans. Yet Trump’s speech was light on two elements: the future, and solutions. An earlier text leaked to the Politico site included six uses of the word, “back,” zero uses of the word, “forward,” with the word “future” making a cameo appearance in closing.

Republican Presidential Candidate Donald Trump, speaks during the final day of the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Thursday. It was devoid of details about how he’d end police-related violence end the Syrian civil war and stop the jihad-inspired violence that has flowed from it, except for blocking immigration from certain unspecified countries. It offered more detail on his economic plans. Trump reiterated his pledge to rewrite trade deals like NAFTA, reduce corporate taxes, and use the promised economic windfall to rebuild crumbling infrastructure.

He’ll hope to have more success than Nixon did in bringing order to the streets. The murder rate increased every year he was in office. It started declining years later. It’s now near 50-year lows. The violent crime rate is down almost three-quarters since the 1990s. Earlier in the day, a group of anti-Trump Republicans lamented the state of their campaign. One told a panel discussion that the bitter, backward-looking message was

out of sync with the modern nation - a place becoming more culturally diverse, filled with dynamic young entrepreneurs, who should be voting Republican but are massively turned off by Trump. “It’s a whole new game,” Richard Tafel, founder of a gay group called Log Cabin Republicans, told a forum hosted by the website Politico. “We could be watching the funeral of the Republican Party at this convention.”

Unarmed black therapist shot by police

World

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS MIAMI — A black therapist who was trying to calm an autistic man in the middle of the street says he was shot by police even though he had his hands in the air and repeatedly told them that no one was armed. The moments before the shooting were recorded on cellphone video and show Charles Kinsey lying on the ground with his arms raised, talking to his patient and police throughout the standoff with officers, who appeared to have them surrounded. “As long as I’ve got my hands up, they’re not going to shoot me. This is what I’m thinking. They’re not going to shoot me,” he told WSVN-TV from his hospital bed, where he was recovering from a gunshot wound to his leg. “Wow, was I wrong.” The shooting comes amid weeks of violence involving police. Five officers were killed in Dallas two weeks ago and three law enforcement officers were gunned down Sunday in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Before those shootings, a black man, Alton Sterling, 37, was fatally shot during a scuffle with two white officers at a convenience store. In Minnesota, 32-year-old Philando Castile, who was also black, was shot to death during a traffic stop. Cellphone videos captured Sterling’s killing and aftermath of Castile’s shooting, prompting nationwide protests over the treatment of blacks by police. At a news conference Thursday, North Miami Police Chief Gary Eugene said the investigation had been turned over to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement and the local state attorney. He called it a “very sensitive matter” and promised a transparent investigation, but he refused to identify the officer or answer reporters’ questions. Eugene, a Haitian-American with 30

You have questions, the community has questions, we as a city, we as a member of this police department and I also have questions,” he said. “I assure you we will get all the answers.” The chief said officers responded after getting a 911 call about a man with a gun threatening to kill himself, and the officers arrived “with that threat in mind” - but no gun was recovered.

Kinsey’s attorney, Hilton Napoleon II, said there was about a two-minute gap in which the person who shot the video had switched off, thinking nothing more noteworthy would happen. It then briefly shows the aftermath of the shooting. He would not say who gave him the video. Kinsey, 47, said he was trying to coax his 27-year-old patient back to a nearby facility that he had wandered from. Police ordered Kinsey and the patient, who was sitting in the street playing with a toy truck, to lie on the ground.

MIAMI — Florida mosquito control officials worry they won’t be able to keep up their efforts to contain the bugs that carry Zika without federal funding, even as concern mounts that the first infection from a mosquito bite on the U.S. mainland is near. On Thursday, fogging trucks drove through a Miami-Dade County neighbourhood where health officials are investigating a Zika diagnosis that doesn’t appear to have connection to travel outside the United States. Zika is usually spread by mosquitoes, but nearly all the Zika cases in the U.S. have been contracted in other countries or through sex with someone who got it abroad. “We want to make sure we reduce the mosquito population down to zero if possible in this case,” said Chalmers Vasquez, Miami-Dade County’s mosquito control operations manager. Vasquez’s inspectors are going door-to-door, trapping mosquitoes for testing, hand-spraying and removing the standing water where they breed. Such aggressive mosquito control and surveillance is now routine in Miami-Dade County, which leads Florida in confirmed Zika cases linked to travel. The Florida Department of Health announced Thursday that another Zika case potentially not related to travel was being investigated in Broward County.

HAMILTON’S NEW YORK

‘Hamilton,’ the prize-winning musical playing at the Richard Rodgers Theater in Manhattan, is one of the toughest tickets in town.

CAN’T GET A TICKET TO THE HOTTEST SHOW IN TOWN? CREATE YOUR OWN HAMILTON EXPERIENCE, FROM HIS GRAVESITE TO WHERE HE MET HIS END. BY BECCA MILFELD ADVOCATE NEWS SERVICES As much as I really want to see the awe-inspiring, bayonet-bearing, kneesock-wearing, hip-hop phenomenon that is the musical Hamilton, I’ve been having trouble justifying the equally phenomenal price of tickets. So I created my own front-row Hamilton experience — which, unlike the play, involves almost no sitting. Instead, I spent a day and a half walking from one end of Manhattan to the other on what I’ve termed a Hamilthon. I was trying to catch a glimpse of perhaps the world’s first consummate New Yorker: the real Alexander Hamilton, the one who doesn’t sing. And I was hardly alone. From Hamilton’s Harlem home to his grave in the Financial District, his new, musical-induced fans are everywhere — many with tickets. With the Tony-, Pulitzer- and Grammy-winning musical sold out through May of next year, it’s hard to find tickets going for anything close to face value at secondary agencies such as Ticketmaster. With delusions of paying far less, I signed up, fingers crossed, for the near-daily online lottery for $10 frontrow seats. On average, more than

10,000 people enter for 21 tickets, but at the advice of Hamilton, I was not throwing away my shot. I started my tour of Hamilton’s life in reverse order, at his grave-site, in Lower Manhattan. Nestled in the modern cityscape at Broadway and Wall Street is Trinity Church and its ancient graveyard, where the dead date to the 17th century and tombstones read like a who’s who of Hamilton characters, on whose graves people now place rocks, coins and other mementos. A succulent houseplant was at the foot of Hamilton’s grave on the April morning of my visit. It’s no wonder so many people love Hamilton, which has won 11 Tony Awards and catapulted its creator and original star, Lin-Manuel Miranda, to fame. The musical tells the story of the $10 Founding Father, born illegitimately in the Caribbean and orphaned after his dad left and mom died. Despite his rough start, Hamilton would go on to become George Washington’s right-hand man in the Revolutionary War, the first secretary of the Treasury (largely credited with creating the nation’s financial system) and one of America’s top Founding Fathers.

STORIES FROM PAGE C1

HAMILTON: Tourist sites cheaper than the show The cast is multi-ethnic, and a portion of the plot, told via hip hop and other musical genres, centers on two women, Hamilton’s wife, Eliza Schuyler Hamilton, and her sister Angelica. At Trinity, Eliza’s grave is next to Hamilton’s and Angelica is thought to be in a nearby vault belonging to the influential Livingston family. Hamilton’s friend, the improbably named Hercules Mulligan, is several plots away. “We don’t have the official numbers, but we anecdotally know that there’s more people that we see in the churchyard” since the musical opened, Trinity spokeswoman Lynn Goswick told me. Case in point: Our conversation was interrupted by a woman inquiring where Hamilton’s son Philip is buried. (He died in a duel more than two years before his father. The church doesn’t know whether he’s in an unmarked grave or plot somewhere nearby.) My logical next stop was the ancient dueling grounds in Weehawken, New Jersey. A quick Uber ride through the Lincoln Tunnel brought me to the cliff-top Hamilton Park, which stretches along the Hudson River and overlooks the bank where Hamilton was mortally wounded by Vice President Aaron Burr. The exact spot — approximately where Philip also was shot — is lost to history. But the picnic-perfect park reveals a phenomenal Manhattan skyline and a nearby bust of Hamilton marks the rough location where the statesman fell. Placed beside the bust is a rock that, according to legend, Hamilton leaned upon after being shot. People now throw pennies on it. I asked a man who lives in the house directly opposite the bust whether he had witnessed the same Hamilton mania I had observed at the graveyard in Manhattan. No, he said, because New Yorkers think New Jersey is impossibly far away. “Hamilton did not die in New Jersey, thank God. That is the worst thing that can happen to a New Yorker. They got him back into a boat. He did make it across to the West Village,” said Jimmy Napoli, who leads Hamilton walking tours, including a “Hamilton’s Wall Street” walk I went on. (For the record, I, too, took a boat back across the Hudson, in a ferry named “Alexander Hamilton.”) At $50, the walk is a fraction of the musical’s price. And unlike Miranda, who gave his final performance as Hamilton on July 9 (the role is now played by his former understudy, Javier Muñoz), Napoli isn’t going away anytime soon. In fact, he has been giving Hamilton tours for decades. “I have great vision and foresight. Twenty years ago, when I became a tour guide, I said to myself, ‘It’s just a matter of time before somebody writes a hip-hop musical about Alexander Hamilton, and I’m going to be on the ground floor when that happens,’ ” Napoli told my tour group of seven with a laugh. He then went on to pull history from the pavement for three hours, explaining where critical events happened and the founding fathers once lived, spots now mostly covered by high-rise buildings. With his fast-paced New York gusto, Napoli’s could be the second best “Hamilton” show in town. His favorite tour spot is Federal Hall, site of the First U.S. Congress, as well as the first Supreme Court and executive branch offices. But for me, the highlight was the room where it happens, the very location where Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and Hamilton held a private meeting in which the two Virginians agreed to round up congressional support for Hamilton’s plan for national assumption of state debts in return for Hamilton rounding up support to move the capital to Washington. The room, which was in Jefferson’s house, no longer exists, built over by yet another office building. My next stop would be a house with rooms where a lot of things happened: the only home Hamilton ever owned, his Grange estate. But not before saying goodbye to my tour at Fraunces Tavern, where the nascent Treasury Department once leased rooms and both Burr and Hamilton attended a meeting one week before their duel. Over lunch, William Carter, a dad from Fredericksburg, Va., who brought his teenage daughter, Kayla, told us how at first he had doubts: “I said ‘Rap and Hamilton? How dare you,’ ” but then was won over. As Napoli put it, not only has Miranda “made Hamilton cool with the kids, I’ve got 80-year-old women from the South rapping in my face, which is really surreal.” With that, I headed uptown to the Grange, Hamilton’s Federal-style house in Harlem in the shadows of what today is the City College of New York. The house, originally located on approximately 32 acres, is named after the ancestral manse of Hamilton’s Scottish father and was completed in 1802, back

when Harlem was a rural community nine miles from today’s Financial District. However, Hamilton was only able to enjoy the home for two years before he died. Since then, the Grange has been moved twice and now rests on a green hillside in St. Nicholas Park, not far from its original location. A group of four women, three wearing Hamilton T-shirts, were on their way out as I arrived. “Our visitation numbers have skyrocketed since the play came out and the demographics of the people have changed,” said park guide Gregory Mance, who explained that history majors and school groups have given way to “everybody.” In the first half of last year almost 11,000 people visited, a number that nearly quadrupled to more than 40,000 in 2016, according to the National Park Service. The spike is no doubt due to Hamilton, which opened off-Broadway in February 2015 and on Broadway in August of the same year. Little is known about the home’s interior, so only three rooms have been restored, including the dining room, where there’s a replica of the four-bottle wine cooler that Washington sent as a token of friendship during the nation’s first major political sex scandal — a torrid affair with Hamilton at its

center. After receiving an email notification that I did not win the Hamilton lottery, I stopped by the Richard Rodgers Theatre some 20 minutes before a show and took a spot in the cancellation line, where a lucky few might nab an affordable seat if the Founding Fathers were to smile down. Standing towards the back, I didn’t stand a chance. And I wasn’t going to buy a ticket from the several questionable men hawking them at outrageous prices. For a moment, I even wondered after so many jogs to the beat of Yorktown and morning bus rides furtively jamming to The Schuyler Sisters: What if the show wasn’t … as good as I imagined? “I was concerned when I saw it it wouldn’t live up to the hype … and it blew away the hype,” Napoli the tour guide, who has seen it twice, said. Okay, so it apparently is awesome. But with tickets selling in the high triple digits, as Burr would say, I was willing to wait for it. Milfeld is a Washington-based journalist. After writing this article, she finally nabbed tickets — for May 2017 — at just $199.

Magnificent Montebello

QUEBEC TOWN ATTRACTS CROWDS, POLITICAL ELITE WITH HISTORY AND SCENERY BY THE CANADIAN PRESS MONTEBELLO, Que. — Montebello - a small municipality in western Quebec about an hour’s drive from the nation’s capital - has a long history of attracting crowds that range from families to Canada’s political elite. The most famous attraction is Fairmont Le Chateau Montebello - a log cabin built in 1930, situated along the Ottawa River and adjacent to the Laurentian Mountain range. A Finnish builder supervised its construction and teams of workers, including as many as 3,500 at the peak of its construction, who used red-cedar logs cut and set by hand to erect the three main buildings on the resort. For the first 40 years of its history, the site was a private retreat of the Seigniory Club, which garnered attention from prestigious business and political figures such as former prime minister Lester B. Pearson. In 1970, the resort was acquired by Canadian Pacific Hotels and it opened its doors to the public for the first time. It is now maintained by Fairmont Hotels and Resorts. Over the years it has been used for a number of historic gatherings, including the 1981 G7 economic summit attended by figures including U.S. president Ronald Reagan, British prime minister Margaret Thatcher and Canadian prime minister Pierre Elliott Trudeau. It was also used for the 2007 North American Leaders Summit – with then U.S. president George W. Bush, Mexi-

Chateau Montebello is also very popular for family vacations, said marketing representative Jennifer Wilson. “There’s a lot you can do on the resort; many activities. We have restaurants as well,” she said. “It is a nice place to gather, relax, have a good time and enjoy the Montebello region.” The hotel, which brings in a wide range of visitors from across Canada and the world, also offers a number of activities on site including horseback riding, kayaking, swimming and biking in the summer months. Winter activities include ice fishing, curling, dog-sledding, sleigh rides and cross-country skiing. “The hotel really represents the Canadian essence,” Wilson said. It is possible to pay a fee for activities without incurring the cost of a night’s stay, Wilson said, which means people from nearby cities like Ottawa and Montreal can enjoy the property during day trips. The municipality itself is home to a number of local vendors and restaurants, including: a microbrewery, a savoury burger joint, a chocolate shop and a local cheese factory. Montebello has also been a huge draw for animal enthusiasts for the past 25 years. Parc Omega, located about 10 minutes from the hotel, is home to more than 15 species of animals, including: elk, red deer, caribou, coyotes, black bears, boars and buffalo. It is best known for its path allowing park-goers to feed carrots to some animals, such as deer, from inside their vehicles.

Laughter can often be heard as a result of the close interaction, said zoologist Azalee Gaudreau. The park itself features different environments such as lakes, a forest and a meadow. “In all parks that I’ve been to, even around the world, I would say here it is really special and it is really nice because the animals are really free in the park,” said Gaudreau. The park offers other activities as well, including picnic areas and hiking trails, and there is an option of staying on site overnight.

There are a few options for accommodations including a log cabin, a teepee and a lodging space that can fit up to six people.

If You Go…

When going to Parc Omega, pack carrots to feed to the animals. Or you can pay $2.50 for a bag of carrots at the site. You should also be prepared to pack wipes or get a car wash after the visit because animal saliva can end up on the outside of your vehicle.

NY Fashion Week: Men’s wraps up third round BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Congrats, New York fashion world, you made it through your third stand-alone fashion week for menswear. With men’s weeks far more established in Milan and Paris, it wasn’t clear exactly how that would work in New York when the Council of Fashion Designers of America decided to try it. Though some designers decamped to other fashion capitols, and the feel of men’s week remained more relaxed with fewer formal runway shows and more showroom appointments and staid presentations, there was still plenty to see with about 80 designers on hand. For spring 2017, the focus was on the old guard and the new. Some highlights: JOHN VARVATOS Varvatos was groovy, as always, but his sexy calm of Provence re-imagined for urban romantics was rocked by the real-life news of many dead in Nice after a truck plowed through crowds of Bastille Day revelers. “Oh that’s awful,” the seasoned designer said. “It just doesn’t stop around the world right now, does it? It’s incomprehensible.” For his 17th spring, Varvatos played with the hard and soft of men’s fashion, using ultra-light linen fabric for breezy jackets and coats, but providing his young romantic with killer rough-and-tumble ankle zip boots that can handle the grit of the big city. Some of his jackets had collars fitted with wires for personalized shaping. And he put out a few great man bags in leather and linen. Varvatos, 60, has been in the business since 1985, when he worked for Ralph Lauren. His own company is 16 years old. Joyfully, men care more about fashion today than they used to, he said. “The world has gotten very small in terms of fashion. Everybody knows everything that’s going on everywhere instantaneously. I love that we’re all so connected in that regard.” He called this collection less rock ’n’ roll, softer. “It’s a cool evolution for us,” Varvatos said. Among the old-world touches he embraced was a lush calfskin leather for an asymmetric jacket, its surface embossed with a crocodile skin motif. Another in supple, buff suede was the colour of almonds. One wheat-colour linen vest was flecked with metallic fibers for added sheen and hand dyed for a vintage feel. The idea, he said, was to honour “heritage” and lend a nod to “old-world craftsmanship.” Actors Kellan Lutz and Colton Haynes were among his guests seated at small cocktail tables at The Django, a cave like, Paris-inspired jazz venue under The Roxy Hotel downtown. GYPSY SPORT Can you be an outlier and a fashion darling at the same time? Rio Uribe of Gypsy Sport isn’t worried. He admits he was a bit after winning with two others the lucrative 2015 CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund, but so far, so good. “It used to make me nervous, actually, when I first won,” he said. “I was, like, what are people going to expect now?” Then the 31-year-old, $300,000 richer from the competition, spent a few weeks in Paris, trying to figure it all out. “I wanted to see what I could do and how I can carry my voice forward without feeling the pressure to always outdo myself,” Uribe said as a continuous loop of models hit his latest gender-fluid runway during men’s week. “I think what it is to always go back to my roots and my roots are with DIY clothing, so I made a lot of the clothing by hand. There’s also a fun element, and if we’re not having fun it’s not Gypsy Sport.” On a runway of artificial turf, Uribe was, again, true to himself. His New York-based brand has been around since 2012 and he has maintained a commitment to unisex design, putting men in dresses and exposing a trans female breast to drive home the idea that we’ve all got them, nipples and all. “I was inspired by so many things this season, starting with soccer and sports. I wanted to take rituals from sports and turn them into ritualistic clothing,” Uribe said. “That led me into DIY, turning some soccer jerseys and football jerseys into dresses and lingerie. And then I was also inspired by evening wear. We’ve never made evening wear but I really wanted to have lace and fringe and pearls and all of those elements in there. So it kind of became a big mash up of sportswear, evening wear and fantasy wear.” On those fronts, he scored. LINDER Putting out high-priced clothes for rich people is one thing. For Sam Linder and Kirk Millar, the design duo behind this New York-y brand, it’s more about stocking the closets of creatives like those who frequent the west Soho neighbourhood near their only store. They design, said Linder, for “people who aren’t stuffy.” On Monday, the first day of men’s week, the two took to the tiny Dixon Place theatre downtown to roll out a collection of mostly everyday pieces for the 30-something musicians, actors and, yes, Sliders alt-fashion folk they’re Fun City Sli by F b drawn to and who are drawn to them. Denim jeans were split up the back in the legs to provide a swing. Others were adorned with numerous rivets as they explored the idea of exposing the “behind the scenes” of garment making. Graphic T-shirts depicted a female worker surrounded by hangers in a garment factory. Some pants had one wide leg and one narrow one. Othm ers included back pock10 a - 4 pm ets just slightly off-kilter, with one higher and one lower. The Linder shoes and boots, made in Portugal, were a different story. They were awesome in that comfy, lug-sole, clunky way. The pickings included some great sand colour suede loafers. Linder launched in 2013 and this was the brand’s first runway show.

In addition to roomy jeans and kimono tees, some of the knits were works of surf-y art, including a cardigan with a wavy blue seam at the buttons and the edges of sleeves that landed above the wrist. Millar, 27, and Linder, 42, come from different generations. Of the two, both New York transplants, Linder lives more on the edge, willing to take risks to please a mostly younger clientele. They support a team of about nine now as they run their brick-andmortar business while continuing to design, trying to focus more on their own brand rather than rely heavily on selling others. The rewards, like putting on a runway show, are “thrilling,” Linder said, “but it’s also really a grind, a lot of anxiety and worry.” ARTISTIX Andy Hilfiger is a star brander, rock dude and the brother of Tommy. Greg Polisseni is a painter, Rochester, New York, dude and doesn’t play the guitar. So how’d these two come together over fashion? After making a splash in high school by painting his clothes, then accidentally splattering some paint on his jeans and sneakers a few years ago and earning compliments, Polisseni founded a fashion company in 2013. Last year, Hilfiger attended his men’s show and the two hit it off as Polisseni continues to grow Artistix. This time around, paint splatters were everywhere on the coveralls, canvas vests, white leather jackets and some pretty hot boxer briefs Polisseni showed, because what dude doesn’t need some highend undies. And the inspiration for all the splatters? In black and teal, mostly. It’s “equality,” but really a collection of Jackson Pollock-esque abstract paintings that Polisseni did and were on display in a gallery space leading up to his show. “For me, it’s just trying to show that there’s so much animosity in this world and so much hatred,” he said. “We all live in this world together. We should all thrive together.” After helping Nicki Minaj, Adam Levine and other music celebs launch successful clothing lines, what’s in it for Hilfiger? “We both like one thing a lot,” he said. “We like pop culture but we really like rock ‘n’ roll.” This Hilfiger has been mixing rock and fashion for some time now. He gigs on guitar, founded his own rock-inspired brand, Andrew Charles, which was once fronted by Steven Tyler, and does fashion PR and marketing.

“Greg is a real artist. It’s very authentic,” Hilfiger said. By that, he meant Polisseni remains a working painter while also designing clothes. Hilfiger called his latest collection “chic workwear.” “And it’s for everybody, young and old,” said the 54-year-old Hilfiger. “I’m not too young, you know, and I rock it.”

Miami’s Swim Week all about subtle sexy this year SWIMWEAR BY ASSOCIATED PRESS Swim Week is still all about sexy this year, but with a little less skin as designers focused on refined and conservative with one pieces, high necks and monokinis and fewer thongs. Designers, buyers and models from around the world descended on Miami Beach for Swim Week 2016, a swimwear fashion and trade show now in its 12th year that has become one of the most recognized in the industry. Funkshion, which showcases emerging designers, kicked off the week with

models in flagrant two-pieces and monokinis strutting across a runway bedded on top of water. Rapper Kent Jones performed his hit song, Don’t Mind. Luli Fama played to the subtle sexy trend and was heavy on crochet pieces and open cut shoulders. “We are using a lot of mesh and sheer fashions,” said designer Lourdes “Luli” Hanimian. The Cuban designer, who hosted a show Saturday, tapped into her Latin roots with bold prints and lively colours showing the “happy people of Cuba.” Sinesia Karol, a Brazilian designer, said she also drew inspiration from the free spirit of the Latin culture with pieces that were flattering for all sizes,

especially curvy women. “It doesn’t matter what size you are,” she said. “I want you to feel good about your body.” Australian designer Camilla Franks’ resort collection also drew from international inspiration and incorporated the soul, energy and love of Africa. KAOHS, a celebrity favourite, featured suits with reversible designs, one pieces with plunging necklines and red halter crop top bikinis. They also included swimwear with “a larger variation of coverage” to appeal to a wider audience, said designer Ali Hoffman. Kay & Elle showed classy bikinis that looked like midriff tops instead of bikini tops. Some of the one piece

swimsuits could be zipped from the front, offering sexy and conservative options. Frankie’s Bikinis paid homage to the ’70s as models started the show behind a multi-colored billboard version of a “shaggin’ wagon.” The designer played with psychedelic patterns and paired some bikinis with colorful blue and pink denim jeans. Models wore white daisies in their hair and some strutted the runway with posters reading “Free The Nipple” and “We Rise By Lifting Others.” The looks were modestly sexy, revealing a little bit of booty but not too much. The shows will continue until Tuesday.

FITNESS FRIDAY, JULY 22, 2016

Do you really need a fitness tracker? BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Maybe you don’t really need a fitness tracker. It might be tempting to get one, now that the weather’s nice and you’re spending more time outdoors. A Fitbit or an Apple Watch, for instance, could prove useful if you’re new to exercise or looking to increase physical activity. They nudge you to keep moving throughout the day and track workouts like running and cycling. Many devices also measure heart rate and sleep. But if you’re a procrastinator or have trouble staying motivated, a tracker can easily end up in a drawer. If you’re already athletic or fairly stable in your routine, it might just tell you the same thing over and over again, which won’t help much. I speak from experience, having worn as many as seven trackers simultaneously to test them out. So know what you’re getting - and what they don’t do - before you spend as much as a few hundred dollars on one.

COUNTING STEPS

Fitness trackers typically use arm swings to gauge how far you’ve walked or run and push you to reach, say, 10,000 steps a day. Many also track floors climbed and calories burned. They can keep you on track if you’re new to physical activity - if you’re the type to go for a walk at 11 p.m. just to meet that daily goal. But a tracker won’t do much if you keep telling yourself, “tomorrow.” Once you hit that goal consistently, you might be inclined to leave your tracker in a drawer. But if you’re competitive, Fitbit and other companion phone apps will let you enlist peer pressure by joining groups that track, challenge and taunt each other to meet and exceed those arbitrary goals. Some devices, like the Apple Watch, will also step up your goals as you improve. Of course, this count isn’t perfect. Trackers might give you bonus steps for doing the dishes or even, um, punching someone, as they’re measuring arm movements. A bike ride also won’t reward you with steps, though some devices will credit you with calories burned.

HEART BEATS

Mid-range and higher-end trackers offer heart-rate monitoring, but these aren’t medical devices approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Measurements can vary wildly at times - one I tried briefly recorded a deadly 243 beats per minute, and another a sub-normal 43 - but most readings are close enough to give you a general sense of your workout intensity. A higher heart rate means your workout is tougher - though heavy breathing and fatigue will also tell you that.

FOR WORKOUTS

These devices are awful at translating steps to kilometers, and very few let you calibrate your tracker by checking it against a known distance.

Photo by THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Six fitness tracking devices measuring step counts and other fitness features are worn Wednesday in New York. Clockwise, from top left are the: Garmin Vivoactive, Fitbit Blaze, Garmin Vivoactive HR, Samsung Gear Fit2, Apple Watch and Fitbit Surge. Before spending as much as a few hundred dollars on one, see if your expectations align with its capabilities. GPS in higher-end trackers help, but that drains the battery more quickly, so many long-distance runners might see their trackers die before they’re finished. Most GPS fitness trackers also aren’t as versatile as a GPS device finetuned for running, cycling, golfing or whatever your sport is. And while trackers are typically water resistant, few work for swimming. A tracker lacking sports-specific features can still be useful. You might run three miles with a GPS running watch and use the tracker to make sure you’re not sitting the rest of the day.

to get up and walk around, though they’re useless if you keep ignoring the prompts. Sometimes they even nag you while you’re in bed — which is especially irritating if your tracker is also on your case about getting more sleep.

YOUR PHONE

Many key features are already available on phones. The iPhone has Health built-in for counting steps, while you can get Google Fit for Android. You can also download Moves for either system. Beyond steps, GPS apps such as Strava will track running and cycling workouts.

A tracker could still be a worthwhile investment for some people. The phone won’t record sleep or remind you to take breaks, nor will it record steps when your phone sits on a desk. Microsoft’s Band 2 adds a UV sensor to warn you when you need sunscreen, while the Samsung’s Gear Fit2 can track squats and other strength training. The key is whether you’ll use it. If you can’t even motivate yourself with a phone, a tracker is just a waste of money. Online: Guide to choosing the right tracker: http://apne.ws/2av5bms

HOW’S YOUR SLEEP?

Most trackers also monitor sleep, though Apple and Android smartwatches require third-party apps. If you toss and turn a lot, the tracker will mark you as a light sleeper. If you get up to use the bathroom, the tracker will note that, too. But is it useful? While a tracker might deem you a light sleeper, it can’t guide you to better sleep. All it can do is recommend more sleep.

DO YOU HAVE A DESK JOB?

Even if you meet step goals, prolonged sitting can be unhealthy, too. Many devices now have reminders

Ask The Dentist! by Dr. Michael Dolynchuk, DDS

How About Standing Behind Your Work? Dear Dr. D: I'm pretty upset about a particular tooth problem I have. A few years back I had a lower molar problem. It wasn't hurting me, but it did abscess and my dentist said it needed a root canal to fix it up. There was also some decay happening and he said it would be fixed at the same time. All seemed to go well, and the X Rays showed it was all good. At my recent checkup, they surprised me with the fact that this same tooth was acting up again. It split right through to the root tip and my dentist says it has to be removed. I spent over $2,900 on that tooth a few years ago, and now he says it needs an implant, more bone, and a crown. This is going to run me another $4,700. That is more than my parents paid for their house in total (that was a while ago but they still live in it). I'm a contractor and I'm forced to stand behind my work or I'm literally out of business. Everyone talks, and I routinely repair things that are not my fault. My dentist isn't willing to come to the party. Should I just have it pulled and leave it? What are my choices? Answer: I don't blame you for being upset, and it's difficult to pinpoint the exact problem.

Although not unique - this isn't common. If a root has major decay all the way down the root, frequently a post is inserted in it. If it is a large root, and a large post – you may get problems if you have a strong bite. Some patients are totally unaware of what they do to their teeth – usually in their sleep. If this is your case, it may well have weakened the tooth to the failure point. You must do something about it or you'll encounter pain, bone loss, and infection. Your choice of extracting it and leaving it isn't ideal either. Our teeth will become mobile and shift position right up until our 90's – and that movement can cause real problems with your bite. If, as I suspect, your strong bite is partially at the cause of it – I wouldn't recommend leaving that space 'vacant'. Your ideal solution is to extract that tooth and immediately place a similar sized implant. There is healing time of 3-4 months, but at that time a crown can be made to fit on top and you will never have another issue with that tooth. Because we're dealing with health and bone – no dentist can legally guarantee anything. It is not a finite science. We wish it was!

Oilpatch feeling optimistic CONTINUED PAIN IN SECOND QUARTER FOR SECTOR, BUT SIGNS OF REBOUND BY THE CANADIAN PRESS CALGARY — Early financial results from the second quarter show continued pain in the oilpatch, but companies say there are also glimmers of hope for a turnaround. Encana Corp. swung to a US$89-million operating profit in the quarter compared with a US$167-million operating loss last year, saying cost cutting and efficiencies led to higher returns. “We have made our business massively more efficient,” said Doug Suttles, the company’s chief executive officer, in a conference call. He noted that compared with the second quarter of 2015, Encana’s operating costs are down 32 per cent, administrative costs are down 27 per cent, and well costs are down 30 per cent to 40 per cent compared with 2015 averages. The Calgary-based oil and gas company (TSX:ECA) says that some of its key expenses will be US$100-million less than the previous estimate, and

savings will be continued into 2017. It’s also reinvesting savings and funds from the sales of key assets to increase its 2016 capital program by US$200 million. Although the increased efficiencies didn’t prevent a net earnings loss of US$601 million for the quarter, the company says the loss is largely because of non-cash items such as hedging losses and impairments on reserves due to low commodity prices. The second-quarter loss, reported in U.S. currency, amounted to 71 cents per share — an improvement from the same time last year when Encana lost $1.61 billion or US$1.91 per share. For Precision Drilling Corp. the second quarter brought a near doubling of losses to $58 million, as revenue dropped 51 per cent from a year earlier owing to a pullback in spending by its North American customers. The Calgary-based company (TSX:PD) says lower activity from its North American operations drove down revenue to $164 million, from $334.4 million in last year’s second quarter.

Its loss amounted to 20 cents per share, compared with 10 cents per share last year when the second-quarter loss was $30 million. Precision Drilling says customer demand was weak during the second quarter as North American oil and gas companies slashed spending in reaction to low commodity prices experienced earlier this year. But the company says with the recent rebound in prices, its activity levels have also started to improve — with its U.S. active rig count now sitting at 28, up 27 per cent from this year’s low. The company also increased its backlog of rigs by one this year and added four rigs on average under contract for next year. “Our customers appear to be looking beyond the oil price lows of earlier this year, resetting spending to current commodity price levels, and beginning the early stages of planning for improved longer-term fundamentals,” said Kevin Neveu, Precision’s chief executive officer, in a statement.

FORT MCMURRAY

Building boom expected BY THE CANADIAN PRESS CALGARY — A home-building boom in wildfire-ravaged Fort McMurray, is expected to start later this year and expand in 2017, the likes of which haven’t been seen in 20 years, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. said Thursday. The federal housing agency released a report that looked into the community’s housing market following the fire that erupted in May and destroyed 2,000 structures. Tim Gensey, a market analyst for CMHC, said the report was based in part on what happened after a fire took out more than 500 homes and buildings in Slave Lake, Alta., in 2011. The report said if all the single- and multi-family homes destroyed by the fire in May were rebuilt in one year, along with the usual number of new homes, it would result in about 2,500 housing starts — greater than the previous record of 2,200 starts in 2007. But Gensey said it’s unlikely housing starts for destroyed homes in Fort McMurray can begin this year because of the extensive cleanup that must take place first. “We did note that most of the reconstruction permits were received within 14 months of re-entry into Slave Lake and construction obviously took place after that, so we will probably expect a timeline that’s similar to that (in Fort McMurray),” he said. “A large amount of the housing stock has unfortunately been lost to the fire but there are still some fundamentals that we think will guide the market in the medium term.” Jim Rivait, CEO of the Alberta branch of the Canadian Home Builders’ Association, said it typically takes six to nine months to build a house and it will likely take two to three years to finishing rebuilding Fort McMurray’s homes. He pointed out that many decisions have yet to be made by the municipality, including when and whether it will allow reconstruction of homes in certain areas that may have environmental problems. Insurance settlement processes will also likely delay housing starts. “There will be some built (this year). Certainly not 2,500,” Rivait said. “A healthy market up there was building 1,000 homes a year. I think they may have some local capacity for 500 or 600 right now so there’s going to have to be help from outside.” He said some neighbourhoods are so extensively damaged that the process of rebuilding them will be akin to setting up new subdivisions. Rebuilding will have to be staged so that builders aren’t “tripping over each other,” he said. Although most of the damage in Fort McMurray affected residential areas, some businesses are included in the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo’s count of 1,928 structures destroyed. About 80,000 people in the region were forced from their homes in early May and most were not allowed to return until a month later.

Every day of the year, a growing number of Canadians across the country are finding themselves trapped in faulty elevators, while countless more are suffering through inconvenience and isolation because of elevators that are out of service, an investigation by The Canadian Press has found. Last year, for example, firefighters in Ontario responded to 4,461 calls to extricate people stuck in elevators — more than a dozen a day — and double the number from 2001.

CANADA’S ELEVATOR PROBLEM

TORONTO — Every day of the year, Canadians across the country are finding themselves trapped in faulty elevators, while countless more are suffering through inconvenience and isolation because of elevators that are out of service — and the problem is worsening, an investigation by The Canadian Press has found. Last year, for example, firefighters in Ontario alone responded to 4,461 calls to extricate people from elevators — more than a dozen a day — and double the number from 2001. “I don’t think we’re heading toward a crisis, I believe we’re already there,” said Rob Isabelle, a mechanical engineer and elevator consultant to property managers and owners. “If we look at the reliability of a large number of pieces of equipment, it’s really the worst it’s ever been.” Among cities, Toronto led the way last year with about 2,862 elevator-rescue calls to 911, but others also had their share of problems. For example, Montreal firefighters responded to 1,532 such calls, Vancouver responders went to 428 calls, while Ottawa saw 314 in 2014.

TORONTO — Statistics obtained by The Canadian Press indicate increasing problems with elevators across Canada.

Wholesale sales rise more than expected in May BY THE CANADIAN PRESS OTTAWA — Canadian wholesale sales rose more than expected in May as the auto sector helped push results higher. Statistics Canada reported Thursday that wholesale sales climbed 1.8 per cent to $55.9 billion for the month — above economists’ estimate of of 0.2 per cent growth, according to Thomson Reuters. CIBC chief economist Avery Shenfeld said the bigger than expected gain in wholesale sales will cushion impacts from the Alberta forest fires and weak factory sales in the month.

His note to clients said another “upside surprise” from retailing is unlikely “so May will only be a less-negative month than we might have thought for the overall economy. Statistics Canada reports retail sales data for May on Friday as well as the consumer price index for June. The economy was hit hard in May as the wildfire in Alberta stopped work at several oilsands operations and the evacuation of Fort McMurray, Alta. However, Statistics Canada said six of the seven wholesale sales subsectors it tracks posted gains, while sales were up 1.5 per cent in volume terms. Motor vehicle and parts subsector posted the larg-

est gain in dollar terms as it rose 3.6 per cent to $10.8 billion. The motor vehicle industry was up 3.7 per cent to hit its highest level since January. Also making gains were the food, beverage and tobacco subsector which gained 3.2 per cent and the personal and household goods subsector which added 1.5 per cent. Alberta was the lone province to show a decline in wholesale sales as sales fell 1.6 per cent due in part to the forest fires. The better-than-expected wholesale sales report came as the Conference Board of Canada cut its expectations for economic growth this year to 1.4 per cent from an earlier forecast of 1.6 per cent.

The S&P/TSX composite index was up by 32.26 points at 14,565.83, boosted by positive earnings reports from Rogers Communications Inc. (TSX:RCI.B) and Encana Corp. (TSX:ECA). Most of the Toronto subindexes were also higher, with the biggest gains seen from the gold, materials and metals sectors. In contrast, the Dow Jones industrial average lost 77.80 points at 18,517.23, the broader S&P 500 composite index dipped 7.85 points to 2,165.17 and the Nasdaq composite gave up 16.03 points at 5,073.90. Equities analyst Ian Riach said the markets are in the middle of the summer doldrums where volumes are low and movements are typically narrow. Coupled with the uncertainty over Britain’s vote last month to leave the EU, traders are backing off making any big bets. “There is a lot of uncertainty over where the global economy is heading,” said Riach, a portfolio manager at Franklin Templeton Investments. “I think the U.K. leaving the European Union is going to have an impact on global growth. I don’t think anyone knows what that will be for a while. We’re going to have to get through the formal exit and the actual negotiations to see how trade is affected to get a clear picture. People are sitting on the sidelines right now until there is a little more transparency.”

Draghi said the central bank is open to adding more stimulus into the eurozone if it sees that Britain’s departure weighs on the region’s economy. The central bank needs more time to monitor the situation before such a decision can be made, he said. Riach noted that central banks are also in “uncharted territory” with Britain’s referendum, and like the rest of the world, were surprised by the result. “Everybody was expecting the U.K. would remain in, and their bank plans would go on as they would. The surprise has caught everyone off guard now they have to reassess what their programs will be,” he said. “Central banks are also trying to re-evaluate what kind of mechanism they can use to increase stimulative monetary policy.” The Canadian dollar fell 0.18 of a U.S. cent to 76.42 cents US, as oil prices, which often guide the loonie’s value, were also lower. The September crude contract dropped $1 at US$44.75 per barrel. August gold rose $11.70 to US$1,331 an ounce, August natural gas was up three cents at US$2.69 per mmBTU and September copper contracts were unchanged at US$2.26 a pound.

ELEVATOR: Aging equipment Many calls involve rescuing more than one person. Others who find themselves stuck are freed without 911 involvement. Nancy Lean is distrustful of elevators following a terrifying experience in 2014 as she went up to the second floor of York Regional Police headquarters in Aurora, Ont., where she works. “It started making a lot of banging noises. Then the lights went out. There was a lot more banging went on, and then it dropped to the basement,” said Lean, 46, in a recent interview. “It jolted me when we came to a stop at the bottom. I didn’t know what was happening or when it was going to stop. Everything was black. I kept trying to press buttons to try to make it open the doors but nothing would happen.” Insiders say the steep rise in problems is partly the result of more elevators — Ontario has seen a 10 per cent increase over the past five years. But the real culprits, they say, are aging equipment and structural issues within an industry dominated by four huge multinationals: Otis, Schindler, Kone and ThyssenKrupp. When it comes to Canada’s elevator market, those companies have been in a race to the bottom in their efforts to grab market share, Isabelle said. Thirty years ago, he said, a technician would typically service about 35 to 45 elevators for about $1,000 per elevator a month. The maintenance contract included everything needed to keep the elevators humming — excluding extraordinary events such as

flooding or vandalism. Nowadays, he said, that same contract might be worth about $600 — with each technician responsible for 100 elevators. “We’re into almost this downward spiral,” Isabelle says. “Service technicians are getting loaded up more and more, having less time to do preventive maintenance. The less preventative maintenance you do, the more problems you’re going to have.” None of the four companies — whose European operations were fined more than $1 billion in 2007 for collusion — would comment on the crisis. Similarly, the Canadian Elevator Contractors Association, which speaks for smaller elevator companies and suppliers, refused to discuss the situation. “We are too busy,” said Catharine Bothwell, the association’s executive director. The growing phenomenon of faulty elevators is not restricted to big cities or highrise buildings — and it’s not just about getting trapped in them. Janice Abbott, 54, a dietary aide, remembers how the lone elevator at the long-term-care facility in Clarington, Ont., where she works was out for three months in the fall of 2014. About half the 88 residents were essentially stuck on the second floor. For meals, staff had to push a heavy steam tray from the basement kitchen through service doors, up a ramp, up a hill across the parking lot, and through front doors on the ground floor. “The worst was carrying the heavy pans of hot food upstairs and hot coffee and tea because of the potential for being burned,” Abbott said. Property owners and managers — particularly those looking after older buildings — are increasingly dealing with an expensive dilemma as parts and technicians familiar with the aging equipment become hard to find or disappear altogether.

BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK — Roger Ailes is out as chief executive at Fox News Channel, his career at the network he built from scratch and ran with an iron hand for nearly 20 years over with stunning swiftness following allegations that he forced out a former anchor after she spurned his sexual advances. Network parent 21st Century Fox said Thursday that Rupert Murdoch, the company’s executive chairman, would run Fox News and its sister Fox Business Network, which Ailes had also led, until a successor could be found. Murdoch and 21st Century Fox did not address the widening scandal in the statement on the resignation but lauded Ailes for his contributions. Ailes did not comment in the resignation announcement. “I am personally committed to ensuring that Fox News remains a distinctive, powerful voice,” Murdoch said. “Our nation needs a robust Fox News to resonate from every corner of the country.” Cutting short a vacation, the 85-yearold Murdoch addressed Fox News employees in New York on Thursday. Details were not given on the settlement agreement for a contract that was supposed to run through 2018, but Ailes is expected to get a payment of at least $40 million. Ailes will have no formal role in the company, but is expected to serve as an informal adviser to Murdoch, said a person familiar with the agreement who spoke on condition of anonymity because it is a personnel matter. The deal is also said to have a standard no-compete clause. Fox is heading into a general election campaign in its customary spot at the top of the ratings, but without the man who sets its editorial tone every day. The announcement came on the day Donald Trump is to accept the GOP nomination for president, a speech likely to be watched by more people on Fox than any other network. The blustery, 76-year-old media executive built a network that both transformed the news business and changed the political conversation. Fox News Channel provided a television home to conservatives who had felt left out of the media, and played a part in advancing a rough-and-tumble style of politics that left many concerned that it was impossible to get

Business BRIEFS Alberta sees 12% jump in May employment insurance following Fort McMurray fires CALGARY — The scale of work disruptions from the Fort McMurray wildfire is being born out in employment insurance numbers from Alberta that show a record level of applicants. Statistics Canada says EI applications soared 70 per cent from April to May for a 22,800 increase in what it says is the largest monthly gain in any province since it started tracking the numbers in 1997. Actual EI recipients jumped 12.1 per cent in May from a month earlier to 77,800, the largest increase since June 2009. The Wood Buffalo area that was hardest hit by the wildfire made up a third of the increase after seeing a 142 per cent spike to 4,500 recipients, while Edmonton saw an 8.4 per cent

Ailes’ downfall began with the July 6 filing of a lawsuit by Gretchen Carlson, who charged that he sabotaged her career because she refused his suggestions for sex and had complained about a pervasive atmosphere of sexual harassment at Fox. Ailes has denied the charges, but 21st Century Fox hired a law firm to investigate. In a statement, Carlson’s attorneys credited Carlson’s “extraordinary courage” with causing “a seismic shift in the media world.” Several Fox employees jumped to Ailes’ defence, but notably not Megyn Kelly, one of Fox’s top personalities. In rapid succession, it was reported that Kelly was among other women who had told investigators about harassment — again denied by Ailes — and that corporate heads Rupert Murdoch and his sons, James and Lachlan, determined that Ailes had to go. The company has no plans to make results of its investigation public. Within two weeks of the court filing, Carlson’s lawyers also said more than 20 women had contacted the firm with stories of alleged harassment by Ailes either against themselves or someone they knew. Two came forward publicly. jump and Calgary a 6.8 per cent rise. Alberta’s numbers made up most of the national increase in EI claims, which were up 23,300 to 264,200 for May. Overall, 544,900 people received regular employment insurance in Canada in May, up by 0.9 per cent from April.

Conference Board of Canada downgrades economic outlook, cites wildfires OTTAWA — A new Conference Board of Canada report has downgraded its projections for economic growth in 2016 from 1.6 per cent to 1.4 per cent, despite a strong start to the year. The think tank says Canada’s economic growth advanced at a solid annual pace of 2.4 per cent in the first quarter, driven by robust household spending, a surge in exports and a double-digit increase in residential construction. But that momentum has largely dissipated after gross domestic product contracted in February and March, followed by wildfires in the Fort McMurray, Alta., region in May and June that shut down many oilsands operations. The board estimates that the temporary shutdowns will have reduced oil production by 57 million barrels this year, costing oil and gas firms $3.5 billion in lost revenues.

CAWSON Wendy 1945 - 2016 Mrs. Wendy Patricia Cawson of Red Deer, Alberta passed away peacefully at the University of Alberta Hospital, Edmonton, Alberta after a sudden brief illness, on Sunday, July 3, 2016 at the age of 70 years. The eldest of five children, Wendy was born in 1945 at Madras, India. She moved to England in 1950; where she attended school in Bradford and qualified as a teacher in Liverpool. After working in England and Australia, Wendy immigrated to Canada in 1972. Wendy taught at several schools; her last post, before retiring as principal, was at Annie L. Gaetz School at Red Deer.

ADVICE FRIDAY, JULY 22, 2016

An out-of-control diet

JOANNE MADELINE MOORE HOROSCOPE Friday, July 22 CELEBRITIES BORN ON THIS DATE: Don Henley, 69; Danny Glover, 70; Willem Dafoe, 61 THOUGHT OF THE DAY: Channel your energy into creative or spiritual pursuits. HAPPY BIRTHDAY: In your quest for professional success, don’t neglect your personal life. October is the best month to start a romance, propose, get married or renew your wedding vows. ARIES (March 21-April 19): It’s a fortunate day to play sport, formulate creative ideas, get together with friends or pursue a favourite hobby. But resist the urge to be a bossy, brusque or rambunctious Ram. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may feel motivated to tackle a big DIY project, as the Sun charges into your domestic zone. But resist the urge to be super stubborn at home. Take housemates views into consideration. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If you’re having problems with a close relationship, strive to be more patient — then you’ll really make headway. Are you sick of being single? Love could be as close as the boy or girl next door. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Many Crabs are keen to initiate important changes personally, professionally or financially. Just make sure you include others in the planning stages, and take them along for the ride. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Have you been doing a lot of work behind the scenes but haven’t been getting any feedback? Calm down Cats! With the Sun shifting into your sign, others will soon start to appreciate your efforts. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Your mysterious and very private Virgo nature is emphasized today. So make sure you connect with family and close friends who understand your particular peccadilloes and need for privacy. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Are you a lonely Libran looking for love? Make a list of the all the practical qualities you prefer in a partner, and then send your wishes out to the Universe via the power of creative visualization. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): With the Sun, Mercury and Venus all visiting your career zone, the three keys to professional success for Scorpios at the moment are creativity, communication and oodles of charm. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Attached Sagittarians — it’s time to organize a special romantic dinner so you can really get talking with your partner. Singles — love and travel are linked in exciting and adventurous ways. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The more you involve others in a current project, the more enjoyable it’s likely to be. Getting a mix of practical people and creative types will lead to a satisfying and successful outcome. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It’s the perfect day to work out the future direction of a marriage, romantic relationship or close friendship. If you’re not sure which way to go, then let your intuition be your guide. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The planets are activating your wellbeing zone Pisces so take a close look at your health and fitness, as you review your diet and exercise routine. Perhaps it’s time for some bold new changes? Joanne Madeline Moore is an internationally syndicated astrologer and columnist. Her column appears daily in the Advocate.

DEAR ANNIE ANNIE LANE Dear Annie: One day a few months ago, my 15-year-old daughter got into the car after school with bloodshot eyes and red cheeks. I could tell she had been crying. I asked her what was wrong. At first, she said nothing. Then, with some gentle prying, she burst into tears and said, “Jason came up to me at lunch and said, ‘Nancy, you would be really pretty if you lost some weight.’ ” As she relived the story, tears welled up in her eyes again. “Mom, I really want to lose weight. I am so tired of being picked last at gym because I can’t run as fast as the other kids. Please help me.” My sister had just lost 30 pounds at a local diet center. I quickly went online and signed Nancy and myself up. Although I only had a few pounds to lose, I wanted to do the program with her so that we could make the necessary eating habit changes together. Our first meeting was at the same type of center. Nancy weighed in 25 pounds overweight. We learned tips for healthy eating and the importance of daily exercise. We heard women’s success stories of losing over 100 pounds. When we got in the car, we were both excited to start losing weight. We began writing down everything we ate in a food diary and would make all sorts of delicious veggie dishes we could snack on all day. Every evening, we would take our dog out for long walks for exercise. It was a great bonding experience. Week after week, Nancy and I were losing weight. She was feeling more and more confident and even told me that Jason had asked her to go to a party with him. After about 12 weeks, she and I reached our goal weight and were instructed to begin the maintenance program. I began to adjust my daily food intake for maintenance, but Nancy did not. At the next weigh-in, she had dropped another three pounds, which was below her healthy weight. When I told her that she could eat a little more, she became very defensive and said she was still heavy and overweight. I reminded her to look at the number on the scale. During the following weeks, she was eating less and less. She said she was not losing fast enough. It was then that I noticed she had basically stopped eating. She would just move food around her plate. She now refused to go back to the diet center meetings. She was wasting away. I didn’t know what to do. I took her to the pediatrician for a checkup. He told me that Nancy had the early signs of anorexia nervosa. I was so upset. I felt as if the whole thing was my fault. I should never have taken her to the diet center. I should never have dieted alongside her. Did I contribute to this disorder? — Regretful Mother

FLASHY FLICKER

Dear Regretful: Jason sounds like a shallow jerk, and I’d discourage your daughter from spending any more time with him. But don’t beat yourself up about what you might have done differently. You took action to try to help your daughter, which proves you care. That love and support is what’s going to help get her better. Ask your pediatrician for a recommendation of a therapist who works with girls suffering from body image problems. There are many great organizations that offer help. With professional help and your continued support, your daughter can come to love and accept herself so the next time a guy says she’d “be so pretty if,” she has the self-confidence to stop him there. Dear Annie: A month ago, my wife was bitten by our neighbor’s foster dog. While the dog was healthy and had all of its shots, the bite became infected and required a doctor’s care. This turned out to be a lengthy process, including shots and a prescription. It seems to be healing up. Our insurance paid the bill, and so far we have not received anything indicating that we owe money. The neighbor has apologized many times and the dog has been returned to the facility. Our neighbor is very nice and we don’t want to create a conflict. Should we just let it go, or should the neighbor reimburse us for any additional costs? — Not Sure Dear Not Sure: If there is no additional cost for your wife’s medical bills or prescriptions, we think your neighbor has done all she can - apologized profusely and returned the dog. However, should a medical bill show up in the mail, you ought to ask your neighbor whether she would like to pay it or split it with you. Send your questions for Annie Lane to dearannie@ creators.com.

A Northern Flicker plays shy while sitting on a fence in Eastview Estates. These multi-coloured birds eat mainly insects, especially ants and beetles that they gather from the ground. They’ve been seen breaking into cow patties to eat insects living within. Their tongues can dart out two inches beyond the end of the bill to snare prey.

New technique opens window into how brain cells communicate BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS WASHINGTON — The brain’s nerve cells communicate by firing messages to each other through junctions called synapses, and problems with those connections are linked to disorders like Alzheimer’s and epilepsy. Now Yale University researchers have developed a way to picture synapses in living brains. The technique reported Wednesday, using PET scans, is highly experimental but it raises the possibility of one day monitoring synapse function in some common diseases. A healthy human brain harbours trillions of synapses, a number that changes over a lifetime. Early in life, the brain “prunes” the many synapses between neurons so the right number is in each region, a process that can go wrong in disorders such as autism or schizophrenia. Changes in the density of synapses may signal where epilepsy seizures originate. Later in life, synapse loss is associated with Alzheimer’s disease. But measuring synapses has required autopsies, or occasional attempts during brain surgery. To find a non-invasive approach, the Yale-led team developed a radioactive compound, called a

tracer, that is injected into the body and binds with a particular protein that is found in the brain’s synapses. The idea: During a PET scan, those synapses appear lit up against dark, synapse-free areas of the brain. Animal testing confirmed the tracer was targeting synapses. The research team then mapped the density of synapses in the brains of 10 healthy volunteers and three patients with a form of epilepsy. Compared to the healthy brains, the technique revealed lost synapses in the epilepsy-affected regions of those patients’ brains, the researchers reported Wednesday in the journal Science Translational Medicine. “This work represents a breakthrough in the ability to study an important process in the brain that is not only part of normal brain development but that also may be involved in several neuropsychiatric diseases,” said Dr. Peter Herscovitch, who directs PET scanning at the National Institutes of Health’s Clinical Center and wasn’t involved in the research. Much more work is needed to make the tracer last longer in the brain, a key if it’s ever to be of use to doctors, cautioned Yale radiology professor Richard Carson, the study’s senior author. But even though it starts disappearing quickly, he said it’s a good tool to research brain function.
