She’ll never teach again Former city teacher is banned for life Jennifer Moreau staff reporter

The B.C. College of Teachers has barred a woman convicted of sexual exploitation involving a St. Thomas More Collegiate student. “She’ll never teach again,” said Mykle Ludvigsen, spokesperson for the B.C. College of Teachers. The St. Thomas More teacher, who cannot be named due to a publication ban, pled guilty to one count of sexual exploitation and was sentenced in August 2009 to six months in jail and two years’ probation. Sexual exploitation is an offence, committed by a person in a position of trust or authority, that involves sexually touching a 14 to 18 year old. The teacher was originally charged with four counts of sexual exploitation, one count of sexual assault and one count of obstruction of justice. The college is an independent, self-regulating body that licenses Teacher Page 8

City ups the ante on the Evergreen Line Burnaby wants Cameron station included up front Janaya Fuller-Evans

staff reporter

Burnaby’s city council is taking its fight for concessions on the Evergreen Line project to the negotiation table. Council has requested that the project

office specify what commitments it will make regarding the line to Burnaby, and plans to use the response to determine whether or not to negotiate a municipal agreement with the provincial government related to the rapid transit project. The plan to make the request was part of a city staff report on the project, presented to council Monday night. Of particular concern is the possibility that Cameron station cannot be added to

the line at a later date. Council, including Mayor Derek Corrigan, says it must be included in the project now. The project includes fewer stations than originally proposed, and Burnaby council is pressing to have the optional Cameron station included, since there are physical requirements that would make it impossible to add it to the system at a later stage. The six primary stations are Lougheed Town Centre, Burquitlam Plaza, the Port

Moody West Coast Express station, the Coquitlam West Coast Express station and a station at Coquitlam City Hall, with access to Douglas College. There were four additional spots being considered for two optional stations; Cameron in Burnaby, Queens in Port Moody and Falcon and Lincoln in Coquitlam. Evergreen Page 10

It’s all about the kids on fright night Trains, ghosts and pumpkins among Halloween fare in city Theresa McManus staff reporter

Halloween is shaping up to be a spooktacular occasion for folks of all ages in Burnaby. In addition to the many Burnaby homes that are decorated in honour of Halloween, a variety of activities are taking place this weekend. Here’s a few you may want to check out.

Fireworks at Gilmore

The Heights is once again inviting Burnaby residents to join in on some Halloween fun. The Halloween festivities get started with a bang on Friday, Oct. 29 when fireworks take to the skies at Gilmore Community School at 8:15 p.m.

Follow the pumpkins

On Saturday, kids are invited to trick or treat from 3 to 5 p.m., at Heights merchants who have pumpkin decals displayed in their windows. The Burnaby Central Railway in Confederation Park features special 6

Halloween Trains in the Dark from 6 to 9 p.m. on Oct. 30 and 31, when the park is decorated with jack-o-lanterns, goblins and ghosts. Beware – witches are lurking and may scare train goers as they pass by. Rides cost $2.50 or $1.50 for those wearing a costume. Hot chocolate and cookies are included in admission. For more information, visit www. burnabyheights.com/halloween.

A haunted village

In the mood for some Halloween hysteria? If so, Burnaby Village Museum is the place to be. The entire village will be transformed into a haunted village, whose inhabitants include witches, trolls and gravediggers. Visitors are encouraged to wear their favourite costume and visit a fortuneteller, take in the belated fashions of the dead departed Victorians, experience a circus sideshow, and listen to the moans of the dearly departed in the cemetery. “We cater to families,” said marketing coordinator Nancy Stagg. “We are not looking to freak people out, we are looking to gross them out.” Kids can trick or treat at six different locations, check out a display of the latest styles of coffins and enjoy unlimited rides on the carousel. The event, which runs Oct.

28 to 30, is $14 for adults and $9 for children aged two to 12 years of age (including unlimited carousel rides for all ages). Don’t forget to dress warmly.

A paranormal experience

Want to see a ghost? Well, you may not see an actual ghost, but you’ll hear about some of the mysterious happenings that have been reported at five building in the Deer Lake area, including Ceperley Mansion. The Haunted Deer Lake Walking Tours, which includes a walk through Burnaby Village Museum, are taking place daily until Oct. 31 from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. “What makes this different from the Vancouver Trolley Tours is we are not looking to give you nightmares,” said marketing coordinator Nancy Stagg. “You actually walk through buildings that have reported paranormal activity.” The tour starts at Burnaby Village Museum, which has three buildings where “unusual activity” such as unexplained noises and doors closing have been reported. Nearby buildings, including Anderson House, Mather House and Ceperley House, are included on the tour. Ceperley House has been deemed to be one of the top places in Canada for paranormal activity, and tour

goers will get to check out areas that aren’t usually open to the public. “We are not looking to create stories, we retell,” Stagg said. “We give a bit of the history of the buildings. I call it a history and mystery tour. Not all chills come from the cool weather.” Just to keep tour goers on their toes, a “few theatrical things” have been thrown in for fun. Tickets are $23.52 and are available by phoning City of Burnaby recreation centres or Burnaby Village Museum. Participants are advised to dress warmly.

Malls get in the spirit

Brentwood Town Centre and Lougheed Town Centre are getting into the Halloween spirit with a variety of events. The Brentwood Boo-levard train is back, offering kids a ride at Centre Court. Tickets are $3 per ride or $10 for a card of four rides. Families are invited to bring their cameras and take a photo of the kids in their costume at the Kin’s Halloween pumpkin patch. Halloween Happenings takes place near the children’s play area in Brentwood Town Centre on Saturday, Oct. 30 and Sunday,

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ‘Sanctuary’ does not exist

Students deserve better Dear Editor:

continued from page 6

I really hate to scotch Mr. O’Neill’s contentions on “the law is the law,” but there is no “sanctuary,” Christian or otherwise, in Canadian law that allows scofflaws to hide within the confines of the Church. Mr. Harper, being, as I’ve heard, a good Christian, is perhaps showing too much leniency here. There was, in medieval times, some laws supporting such, but there was never a guarantee. It is generally believed that John (Red) Comyn was stabbed to death by Robert the Bruce in 1306 during a meeting at the high altar of Dumfries Abbey in Scotland. And who hasn’t heard of the murder of Thomas Becket at the altar of Canterbury Cathedral by King Henry II’s men after hearing him mutter, “Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?” Hundreds of Hutus (or was it Tutsis?) died when the church they sought sanctuary in was burnt to the ground with them still within, a few years ago in Rwanda/ Burundi. That said, I defy Mr. O’Neill to put forward any instance of KGB honouring sanctuary at any of the thousands of churches that once covered the steppes, tundras and farmlands of Mother Russia or any of her Soviet satellite republics.

If I told you the price of a nearly universally prized object had doubled in price over a decade without any reduction in the supply of this good, would you be willing to purchase it for yourself? It happens every single year. The topic is tuition, and in the past decade, tuition fees have doubled to an average of more than $5,000 for a year of undergraduate studies. Furthering a young person’s education has become a greater financial burden for families than ever, and the pool of prospective students is beginning to shrink, as more students become unable to shoulder the financial burden. What’s worse is that our provincial government has cut spending on financial aid for students. Now students who are incredibly well qualified are being barred from an education, simply because of their current financial status. We’ve heard about British Columbia being the best place on earth, so why is it that we cannot afford to make sure that every student with the grades to succeed has a chance to further their education? The B.C. Liberals should bring back the student financial aid funding they’ve taken away from the budget, and stop mortgaging our generation’s future.

Campbell: What changes mean continued from page 6

natural resource operations and – wait for it – a minister of state for “building code renewal.” But the rest of the cabinet changes were relatively minor in major, and only one new face– Stephanie Cadieux from Surrey – was promoted from the backbench. There were no real demotions – no one was actually taken out of cabinet – which may speak to Campbell having to be very careful about hurting anyone’s feelings in his party right now, given the party convention coming up in November. Campbell says he regards his current team as strong, with little need for new blood. He remains stubbornly optimistic he can pull both himself and his government out of the mess they find themselves, and

that he can do that with little change in the people around him. There was one important exception to that, however. After spending 13 years as Premier Gordon Campbell’s chief advisor, Martyn Brown has left the premier’s office to become a deputy minister. Replacing him is former deputy finance minister and ICBC president Paul Taylor. The importance of Brown’s departure cannot be downplayed. Few people last long as a chief of staff to a political leader, and Brown’s survival in that post for so long speaks volumes about how much Campbell relied on him. Chief of staff can be an immensely powerful position, second perhaps only to the premier himself. Brown has been the

unseen force in the B.C. Liberal government since it first took power in 2001. Like his predecessors, he seemed likely to last only a few years, but after a while it became apparent he was so intrinsically linked to Campbell that he wasn’t going anywhere. But now he has left (he’s now deputy minister of tourism, trade and investment), and it will be interesting to see what impact his departure has on Campbell’s strategic and philosophic approach to governing. I suspect Taylor’s priority will be to help devise a strategy to sell the HST to the public. He surely can’t be viewing his appointment as long-term employment, given the government’s low standing in the polls. Keith Baldrey is chief political correspondent for Global B.C.

teachers and investigates complaints of misconduct. Ludvigsen said the teacher’s licence expired and the college barred her from ever renewing it. “The important message here is she’s ineligible to teach in B.C.,” he said. Not only that, the information goes across Canada and the U.S., so she’ll never be able to teach in North

America again, he added. The teacher is not allowed to be around boys aged 14 to 18, unless it’s part of her job and her employer knows about her conviction. She’s also not allowed to work in a position of authority or supervision with young males or participate in any volunteer activities with them. She was also ordered to undergo counselling.

Evergreen: Burnaby city council wants Cameron station included Corrigan spoke out in September against the “massive deletion of stations”, saying Burnaby would continue to press to have Cameron added to the initial project. Council debated what concerns should be addressed in the report from the city at Monday night’s council meeting. Coun. Nick Volkow was particularly concerned about the inclusion of Cameron station. “It boggles my mind that this is even a question,” he said at the meeting. In reference to the density of the area, part of the requirements for putting a station in, he said, “I don’t know how much more dense you can get.” He pointed out that Braid station on the Millennium Line, and 29th Avenue Station in Vancouver on the Expo Line have less density than the area around the proposed Cameron station. Another concern for council was funding. Until funding is secured, Coun. Sav Dhaliwal said, the city should not proceed with a municipal agreement. Such an agreement ensures the province can build the project within the city. City staff had previously prepared a report asking that the government secure funding for the project,

“There’s something there”: Robert Belyk, the author of four books of ghost stories, regards himself as a “reluctant believer” in ghosts after years of research into paranormal happenings. He’s giving a presentation about ghost stories of Greater Vancouver this Friday.

On the trail of the paranormal Author seeks information about haunting in Burnaby’s Central Park Julie MacLellan staff reporter

“There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” Those words, of course, are William Shakespeare’s, spoken by Hamlet to the friend who can’t quite believe that the Prince of Denmark is speaking to his father’s ghost. The sentiment that lies behind them might just as well belong to Robert Belyk. When it comes to the existence of ghosts, Belyk has been both Horatio and Hamlet. “I regard myself as a sort of reluctant believer,” he confesses. Belyk is an author, with four collections of ghost stories to his credit. He’ll be making a presentation called Ghosts in the Hood: True Accounts of Spooks, Spectres and Phantoms from Greater Vancouver this Friday in Port Moody. Over years of research, he says, his inborn skepticism has come up time and again against evidence of happenings where he’s

had to say, “’This doesn’t gel with anything in my knowledge base.’” He pauses, then says firmly, “There’s something there.” What that “something” is has been the subject of many years of study for Belyk. Belyk was originally drawn towards the field of ghost research in university. “I majored in political economics, which is about as far from ghosts as you can get,” he says with a laugh. His original interest wasn’t specifically in ghosts but rather in folklore and in a compulsion to collect British Columbia’s stories in book form. What he found when he started to look around was that, at that time, no one had collected B.C.’s ghost stories. Belyk made it his mission to be the one who would. Originally, he says, his publisher didn’t have much appetite for ghost stories and was reluctant to publish a book of them. But when Belyk’s first book came out in 1990, he says, “It was a runaway Canadian bestseller.” Back in those days, he found it hard to get people to talk to him about their ghost stories. “When I first started, people were reluctant to give me anything,” he says. “It was

hile watching a movie, have you ever felt more present, attentive and emotionally connected than you are in your own real life? The story might speak to you, and you identify with the dilemmas and experiences of the characters. Why is that? You expect everything you see and hear on the silver screen to be significant and meaningful. Every word of dialogue adds to the movement of the story and your understanding of it. Every prop and every action has a purpose. But in real life, most of what you see seems like background filler. You just walk through and see through it all as if none of it makes a difference. Much of what you hear, you ignore as if it was all noise that does not speak to you. You have other choices: Look for the meaning in what you see and hear and in the situations and relationships of your daily life or, through your own actions and words, make each day meaningful. Consider the truth in fiction. We don’t normally consider actors to be pretenders and writers liars. Some good plays, movies and novels engage, teach and enlighten. They can shine light on human nature, relationships and life. They may tell of a deeper truth. Real life can do the same – if you look, listen and act, and if you embrace your responsibility for your role. Real life is improvisation. You are put into a setting with a backstory and a role, with a gender and name, appearance and age.

HEALTHWISE

Dr. Davidicus Wong

You can read your script, but you should question who wrote it. Is it your own or was it written by everyone who taught you – your parents, your teachers, your peers? You have a choice: say what you mean and be more positive. You can change your perspective and change your voice. You can change your role or change the way you play it. Improvising in real life is like playing a game. When another player makes an unexpected move, you think, “Hey! I didn’t know we could do that!” To improvise in real life is to take what you have and make the most of it. Apply your unique intelligence, passion, humour and creativity. Feed off the positive creative energy of others. Your relationships are not random accidents. Seek the meaning in your relationships. It may be a connection, a lesson or an issue for you to resolve. Consider your words and actions accordingly, and make every scene count. Sometimes we are drawn together for a purpose. It could be a complementary balance of our relative strengths and needs, or we could be kindred spirits. Sometimes, our respective liabilities result in dependence and codependence or dysfunctional cycles of abuse. In the latter case, we may repeat our mistakes until we have learned from them or until we are ready to break the pattern and rewrite our script. Master your character as an actor would. Ask yourself: What drives me? What matters most to me? Where do I want to be? Where do I want to go? Bring the drama of your life and your relationships to climax and resolution. Dr. Davidicus Wong is a family physician at PrimeCare Medical. His column appears regularly in this paper, and his Internet radio show can be heard on pwrnradio.com.

Every chain seems to be represented, and everything from fast food to ethnic to West Coast casual is on offer. But perhaps the best new addition is Joey Burnaby, which took over the spot at 109-1899 Rosser Ave. (in the Madison shopping complex) and opened

its doors to the public on Oct. 4. The Joey’s crew has spared no expense in revamping the restaurant for the better part of a year. “We do everything from scratch,” said Leah Whitworth, B.C. regional manager for Joey’s. “We’ve got two floors, and we’ve used a lot of natural light on the upper floor.” The restaurant, which will seat between 150 and 170 people, offers some magnificent views of the Metrotown skyline, and the downstairs lounge and bar has a hopping and edgy feel to it.

Joey: Food, atmosphere are winners continued from page 17

The Burnaby NOW was invited for a sneak peak of the facility at a pre-opening VIP event. As we entered the main-floor lounge and dining area, we could see that Joey Burnaby will draw a crowd that won’t have to go to Vancouver to party. For us older party animals, the upstairs lounge is the place to be. Quieter and with big booths that can fit six comfortably and eight if needed, the upper floor also has huge flat-screen televisions that front the beautiful view of South Burnaby. Green and Dave Whitworth offered up several of the signature Joey’s dishes. First out was the ahi tuna tacos ($11.49), seared rare with sesame ginger coleslaw

and wasabi-lime aioli. The four portions disappeared within seconds, just in time for when the cheeseburger sliders ($10.99) arrived. Sliders seem to be the new item at most restaurants, and Joey’s has one of the best in the city. Next up was the Tandoori chicken flatbread ($11.99), served with eggplant chutney, peppers, red onions and yogurt. We finished with the individually baked apple pie ($7.99), which featured a hand-folded puff pastry, caramel sauce and maple ice cream. Joey Burnaby is open from 11 a.m. to midnight for food service, with the bar open to 2 a.m. Call 604-564-JOEY (5639). Internet reservations are available at www.joeyresos.com.

What’s going on during those teen years BY JESSICA KERR

Everyone has been through it, is going through it or will go through it one day. However, those adolescent years bring with them a host of challenges for both teens and parents that can sometimes leave everyone feeling a little baffled. “Teenagers are posed with the challenge of finding a balance between staying close to their family, particularly their parents, and then forging their own identity, and so depending on the health of that family that can be easier or more difficult to do,” says Vancouver psychotherapist Katherine Young, who runs Head and Heart Counselling. “So, if they are successful in forging their own identity but they have to sort of really separate themselves too much from their parents, then they’re left really vulnerable without that guidance. On the other hand, if they don’t separate themselves enough they’re left in sort of an infantile state where they don’t figure who they want to be.” It’s a delicate balance that’s made even more complicated by modern society. The overall health and strength of the family unit and upbringing during a child’s early years can have an “absolutely massive effect” on how young people make their way through the adolescent years, Young says. “One of the biggest questions I think that comes up for teenagers and mental health is the structure in the family, whether there’s enough structure or too much.” A child that does not have enough structure will have difficulties developing the inner controls

that everyone needs to prevent things like substance over use or computer over use, which, Young says, is a problem she is seeing more and more frequently. “Just learning the basics of life takes some discipline and structure to do; nutrition, getting a little exercise, all those basics.” Too much structure can also hinder the transition from child to adulthood. “With too much of that, it’s kind of the same thing,” Young says. “The child doesn’t develop that internally. So, they can either go into a rebellion against the parents where they’re still not really discovering who they are they’re just

reacting against what they perceive as excessive control or they just stay in kind of a child-like state and not learn to take risks in the world and face their fears.” It’s a delicate balance and Young sees many families that are having a hard time walking that tightrope. It’s all about emotional needs and it’s the parent’s job to try and read that in their children, she says. That’s what forms the relationship and the connection between parents and child. “You can have all the discipline in the world and if ... there’s not a relationship to base that on, the kid’s not going to care.” Teens are stereotypically thought of as moody and driven by hormones. However, Young says it all has to be taken into context. “I always want teenagers to feel like their feelings, their behaviours have meaning and they make sense,” she says. Registered psychologist Dr. John Wagner says there are signs parents should keep an eye out for: social withdrawal; problems with basic functions, such as eating, sleeping and making it to school; and mis-use of substances. “Experimentation is normal in adolescence,” Wagner says. “It’s normal to expect kids to do a little experimentation.” However, for some experimentation can turn into mis-use and abuse. While there are individuals at every age that can be affected by serious mental illnesses, the general teen population is most susceptible to anxiety, depression and substance abuse. Wagner says he also sees a number of younger patients who practice self-harm or are exhibiting suicidal tendencies. “If a child is exceptionally irritable, that can be a sign of anxiety and depression,” Young says. “If they withdraw from a more full life that they were living, from friends and from activities; if you see a change; if they were pretty good at doing their homework and then they stop; excessive crying.” Continued on Page 22

These behaviours are not difficult to spot, she says. Parents should also keep an eye on kids that are involved in several clubs and after school activities and always strive for perfect marks to ensure they’re not pushing themselves too far and not enjoying their activities anymore. The adolescent years are also when control over things extracurricular activities and food intake shifts from the parent to the child. “For the first time they’re thinking, ‘Well, maybe I shouldn’t drink that Coke, it sure has a lot of sugar in it,’” Young says. “So they’re developing that inner control and some kids go very extreme with that, and that’s where you see anorexia or bulimia, that kind of thing. But they can be a little

bit too much just black and white; it can be hard for them to hold a balance because it’s just so brand new to them.” It may sound a little cliché, but both Wagner and Young stress the importance of communication, no matter what. “One of the primary things is just talking with kids,” Wagner says, adding parents should be up front with teens, ask open-ended questions and take the time to listen. “I think it’s really important to let your child talk to you about what they’re going through even if it puts you in an awkward position,” says Young. “I would advise parents to try and walk that line and try to manage that grey area where your child can still come to you and talk to you, but that you still have some behaviour limits around alcohol and substance abuse and sex and all that stuff.”

B.C. optometrists prescribe eye drops for fall allergies British Columbians who experience fall allergies are able to get fast, effective, prescriptive treatment from their optometrists. Last year, the B.C. government expanded the scope of practice to allow optometrists to prescribe eye drops, which, along with other treatments, can work amazingly well, says Burnaby optometrist Dr. Susan Seibold, a member of the B.C. Association of Optometrists. “The usual culprits for fall allergies are ragweed pollen and leaf mould,” says Dr. Seibold. “Drops provide relief for a host of allergy symptoms

from irritated, watery and red eyes to puffy eyelids, itching, mucous discharge and contact lens discomfort.” Prescription eye drops can be used to pre-treat allergies, for acute phases of itching, or for extended use during allergy season so contact lenses can continue to be worn comfortably. Allergy relief can come in many forms, and seeing an optometrist just before or during allergy season is an excellent way to be symptomfree. To reduce, avoid and treat eye allergies, the B.C. Association

Botox and Fillers Look as Young as You Feel

of Optometrists provides these tips: 1. The first time you experience one or more of the allergy symptoms described, visit your optometrist for a complete exam to rule out “pink eye” or other eye diseases and conditions that could affect your vision.

• Reduce facial lines and wrinkles • Immediate results • Minimal recovery time

2. The best way to reduce allergy suffering is to identify what triggers your reaction and limit your exposure. 3. If you wear contact lenses, switch to daily disposables or wear your glasses.

Prime of life your guide to mature living

As we get older, back pain can become a “pain in the neck” Neck pain is pain that occurs anywhere from the bottom of your head to the top of your shoulders. It may spread to the upper back or arms and may cause limited neck and head movement. Neck pain is a common problem, especially in older adults. You may feel a “kink,” stiffness, or severe pain in your neck.

The pain may spread to your shoulders, upper back, or arms, or it may cause a headache. You may not be able to move or turn your head and neck normally. If there is pressure on a spinal nerve root, you may have pain that shoots down the arm or numbness, tingling, or weakness in your arm. If your neck pain is long-

lasting (chronic), it may be difficult to cope with daily life. Common side effects of chronic pain include fatigue, depression, and anxiety. If your pain starts after an injury, such as a car accident, severe fall or blow to the head, or if your pain does not improve after a few weeks, your health professional may want to do

an X-ray, magnetic resonance image (MRI), computed tomography (CT) scan, or other imaging tests to check the neck bones, spinal discs, spinal nerve roots, and the spinal cord. Most neck pain is caused by activities that result in repeated or prolonged movements of the neck’s muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, or joints. This can result in a strain (an overstretched or overused muscle), sprain (injury to a ligament), spasm of the neck muscles, or inflammation of the neck joints. For example, painting a ceiling, sleeping with your neck twisted, slouching, or staying in one

position for a long period of time can all cause neck pain. Less frequently, neck pain is caused by injury, such as whiplash that occurs in a motor vehicle accident or a fall from a ladder, or by another medical condition, such as infection in the neck area, a narrowing of the spinal canal in the neck (cervical spinal stenosis), or rheumatoid arthritis. Most neck pain caused by activities goes away within 4 to 6 weeks. Chronic neck pain is first treated the same way as acute neck pain. Your health professional may prescribe stronger pain medication, such as muscle

Acupuncture is an excellent treatment for both acute and chronic neck pain. Not only can it provide immidiate relief of the pain but also it fixes the cause of the problem. Acupuncture addresses the cause of the condition rather than the symptoms. Probably the most attractive thing about Chinese Medicine is it carries no side effects while treating patients. By the insertion of some fine, solid disposable needles into proper Acu-points, or massage them with Chinese acupressure, they boost your own healing system, increases your circulation, and rebalances your ‘Chi’ (energy). When treating specific forms of neck pain, acupuncture points may also be stimulated with heat, cold, electricity, ultra-sound, and even lasers, to achieve better results. Talk to a licensed Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner near you if you are suffering from neck pain or other form of chronic pain. Treating theses conditions with natural medicine not only gives you relief but can also improve your general well being, and your quality of life.

Is this old BMW worth keeping on the road? CLICK & CLACK TALK CARS Ray & Tom Magliozzi

Dear Tom and Ray: I have a 1999 BMW 323i that I love. My husband wants to trade it in because it has 207,100 miles on it. He’s afraid of racking up big repair bills. I say if we keep up with maintenance and repairs, who knows how long we can go? And we should think of any repair bills as car payments. At least it’s paid off. So far, I’ve managed to “hide” the last three repairs from him. Now I’m hearing a clicking noise, and the steering wheel is shuddering when I drive. The longer I drive, the worse the shaking gets. It is similar to the feeling

of a tire going flat. In fact, last night I thought maybe it was that, and I pulled over to look. The tires are fine. Have any ideas? Is this going to be a pricey fix that I’m going to have trouble hiding from my spousal unit? – Arleen TOM: Well, let’s deal with your issues one at a time, Arleen. First, and most importantly, you have to take care of that front-end shaking immediately. Seriously, right now. RAY: It sounds like a ball joint is failing. When it breaks, the wheel’s going to fall off. And then there won’t be any more questions about whether to repair this car – it’ll be wrapped around a tree. The question will be about how to repair Arleen – if you’re lucky. TOM: So that’s Step 1. And it’s urgent. RAY: Then, while the car is in the shop, ask your mechanic to look it over

from stem to stern. Have him inspect it as if you were thinking of buying it from someone as a used car. Tell him you want to know everything that’s wrong with it. Ask him what he thinks needs to be fixed now, and what’ll need to be fixed in the next six months. TOM: If it gets a relatively clean bill of health, I think you can make a good case for keeping it. RAY: Here’s the case you make to your husband. He’s afraid of big repair bills. So let’s look at a badcase scenario. Let’s say the car costs you an average of $300 a month to repair from now on. That’s $3,600 a year. TOM: If you replace the car with the most barebones new 3 Series BMW (and you’re a good negotiator), that’ll run you about $31,000. Add in the taxes, destination charges, dealer

you have to realize that at 200,000-plus miles, you’re on the far end of the bell curve.

MOTORING Take extra care when driving in wet weather ICBC and police are reminding drivers to slow down and adapt their driving speed to fall and winter road conditions. In the Lower Mainland, the number of casualty crashes due to driving too fast for conditions increases by over 40 per cent in December compared to October, ICBC notes in a press release. “Wet road conditions are the main factor of speed-relative crashes in the Lower Mainland,” said Jon Schubert, ICBC’s president and CEO, in the release. “Unfortunately, many drivers don’t adjust their speed and recognize that the posted speed limit is only for ideal or dry road conditions.” ICBC and the Justice Institute of B.C.’s driving instructors teamed recently in a special event at Richmond’s SilverCity to demonstrate how various driving speeds affect the time it takes to stop on wet roads. It was clear – the faster you go, the longer it will take you to stop. And in poor weather

conditions, it will take even longer. Police were also on hand to remind drivers of the consequences of speeding in B.C. “If you are caught driving too fast for the road conditions, you will be fined $167,” said Supt. Mike Diack of the RCMP. “As the weather changes and road conditions deteriorate, your chances of getting into a crash and being injured or killed dramatically increase.” Schubert noted that all drivers can help make the roads safer by making good decisions. “That means allowing more time for travelling in wet weather and slowing down so you can see more of the road,” he said. In addition to slowing down, ICBC is encouraging drivers to ensure their windshield wipers are in good working order and their tires are inflated at the correct pressure and appropriately rated for the weather conditions.

Hurry-up Knights knock off B.C. champs Tom Berridge sports editor

The St. Thomas More Knights earned an important two points and a whole lot of respect in the B.C. high school varsity football eastern conference last week. The Knights knocked off the reigning B.C. champion Centennial Centaurs 32-27 at Burnaby Lake Sports Complex-West to move into sole possession of third place in the conference. STM came back from an eight-point deficit at halftime, outscoring the Centaursthreetouchdowns to one in the second half, including Mikey Carney’s six-yard game-winning strike to Ross Hilliam in the end zone with just 31.6 seconds remaining in the game. The Knights gave every intention they would be no easy pushover for Centennial, scoring on an 11-play, 72-yard drive on the opening possession, when Carney scampered into the end zone from 11 yards out. “We have the ability to compete (in the conference),” said Hilliam, who finished with two catches for 24 yards and a key two-point conversion that tied the contest at 20-20 midway through the third quarter. STM kept Centennial off balance with a hurryup offence that at times had every player but the quarterback on the line of scrimmage. It’s part of the clever strategy and keen conditioning that the Knights have decided to employ to make up for their overall lack of size.

Jason Lang/burnaby now

Big gainer: Running back Justin Siglos, seen earlier in the season against Vancouver College, rushed for 111 yards in the win over Centennial Friday.

“We’ve been smaller every single game,” Hilliam said, but added the team must still be more disciplined to allow the system to get the job done. That was true in the first half. After the opening score, Carney and Alex Golding executed a successful short kickoff recovery. Three plays later, the Knights Justin Siglos took a pass to the Centaur’s one-yard line, but a 15yard major penalty negated that gain. The ensuing field goal was blocked. STM linebacker Carlson Lacson intercepted a pass on the next series, but on the following possession, Kyle Madden was stripped

of the ball at midfield after a nice 10-yard gain for STM. In the second quarter, another major penalty on the Knights called back a 30-yard pass and run by Hilliam on the following possession. Two plays later, Carney threw his only interception of the game. Centennial finally broke a big play, going deep to wide receiver Nathan Lund on a 32-yard pass from Bobby Pospischil. Siglos had a 45-yard kickoff return called back on a holding call, but STM managed to take the ball back 76 yards to regain the lead 12-7 on a 13-yard scramble by Siglos up the

middle. Siglos rushed for 111 yards and one touchdown. But Centennial countered quickly on a 46-yard run by Pospischil and a second TD pass to Lund just before halftime. But despite the setbacks, STM came out in the second half, continuing its stout defence while engineering three long, timesapping drives to pull out the win. “I would have to thank our coaches for that. They keep us in the game and to keep pushing,” Hilliam said. The first was a 15-play, 95-yard effort capped off by a five-yard Carney run. The second went 79

yards before Madden bulled his way over from one yard out to give the home Knights a six-point lead. On Centennial’s next possession, Aiden Golding and Madden sacked Pospischil for a sevenyard loss, but with a third down and 26 yards to go, the Centaur QB shook off a tackler and hit Brando Nguyen for a key first down that kept the drive alive. Pospischil scored the go-ahead touchdown five plays later. But Carney, who rushed for 165 yards and completed 11 passes for 147 yards and one touchdown, STM Page 31

Jugglers upset Hyacks; hold playoff tiebreak Tom Berridge sports editor

The Notre Dame Jugglers positioned themselves for a thirdplace finish in the B.C. high school western conference with a 28-14 win over the New Westminster Hyacks Friday. The Jugglers never trailed in the contest, scoring on their first two possessions while keeping the Hyacks’ wing-T offence to less than 200 yards. Notre Dame running back Shane Devlin carried the ball 25 times for 114 yards and one

touchdown, while quarterback Demitrius Wallace was good on five of seven passes for 62 yards and a TD and one interception. Backup pivot Serafino Gentile, in his first start for the Hyacks, completed just two passes while getting picked off twice by the Juggler defensive backs. Nicholas Schwagele returned one of those interceptions 50 yards for a Notre Dame touchdown in the first quarter. Notre Dame’s Ante Litre finished off a 15-play opening drive with a one-yard run for a score. The Jugglers led 14-0 at the end

of the first quarter. Manraj Bains carried the ball three times for 46 yards on New Westminster’s next possession, setting up Gentile for a TD on a quarterback sneak. Notre Dame began the second half with another key possession. Devlin ran through the Hyack secondary for 29 yards to start the drive. Noslan Jara hauled in an 18-yard pass from Wallace to continue the march. Wallace finally hit Lerone Robinson with a 22yard touchdown pass. But New Westminster was not done. James Belgrave ran back

the ensuing kickoff 80 yards for a Hyack major and Jordan Chin recovered a Juggler fumble to give New Westminster back the ball, trailing 21-14. But Marino Pingitore stopped the Hyacks’ drive, intercepting Gentile on the Jugglers 32-yard line. New Westminster got the ball back but was forced to punt. Joseph Gabriele returned the ball 31 yards to the Hyack 24, busting tackles along the way. Devlin did the rest, busting Football Page 32

Men win record 14th straight game Simon Fraser University men’s soccer team chalked up a record 14th consecutive win following a 4-3 victory over Western Washington University Saturday. The Clan gave up the opening goal in the third minute to the home team Vikings, but rallied for four first-half goals, including the eventual game-winner from Joseph Martin just before half time. With just seconds left in the opening half, Martin drove the length of the field and blasted a shot from 12 yards out to put SFU up by 4-2. Two minutes earlier, Sang Hwang tallied a free kick just inside the corner post from 25 yards out to give the Clan a one-goal lead. Thomas McCole and Josh Bennett scored three minutes apart midway through the first period to knot the game at 2-2. “It was an absolute battle. Every time you come and play Western Washington in Bellingham, it’s going to be a fight. But we scored four world class goals in some adverse weather to win a tough match on the road,” said Clan head coach Alan Koch in a school press release. The win improved SFU’s record to 14-0-0, including six straight wins in the team’s debut in the NCAA Division II Great Northwest Athletic Conference. Last week, freshman Carlo Basso registered his first career hat trick in a 3-0 victory over the University of Mary in conference play Oct. 19. J.D. Blakley earned his first career shutout in goal for the Clan. Earlier, SFU thumped Thompson Rivers University 6-0 on the strength of a five-goal first half. Two of the goals came off the boot of redshirt freshman Lucas Ferritto. Hide Ozawa got the shutout in goal. Ozawa has won a total of 13 games so far this season. SFU plays Northwest Nazarene Thursday at Terry Fox at 5 p.m.

Your BC Lions — In Their Own Words Travis Lulay - 14 I was born and raised in Salem, Oregon and live there during the off-season with my wife Kimberly along with my parents, siblings and extended family, who still call the area home. I’ve been around football since I was a young kid and I decided pretty early on that I wanted to train hard and get accepted into university so I could play at the college level and ultimately pursue a professional career. You could say that I’ve been successful in reaching my goals so far! I spent the 2002 to 2005 seasons at Montana State, where I set a school record for career passing yards, led my team in rushing yards during my senior season, and concluded my college career ranked fourth all-time in rushing yards and touchdowns – the highest total for any quarterback at Montana State. While I’ve spent much of the last several years with a number of different professional football teams, I’m happy to have had these opportunities to play the game I love. Whether it’s stints in Seattle with the Seahawks of the NFL, in New Orleans with the Saints or moving overseas to play with NFL Europa’s Berlin Thunder, I know these experiences have all contributed to making me the person and player I am today. With these experiences in mind, I remember what it’s like to be a young athlete with a dream of playing at the professional level which is a big reason why taking part in the Lions’ community initiatives is so important to me. Whether it’s acting as a guest coach at a local community football practice or helping run a Timbits Camp at our practice facility, it’s a rewarding feeling to know I could be inspiring a young person to pursue their goals in sports and in life.

Lions quarterback Travis Lulay enjoys taking part in the club’s community programs and working with young people to help them pursue their goals.

was not through. Forced to scramble, he found a wide open Madden at midfield for a 50-yard gain. Madden had six receptions for 99 yards. The two-way fullback/ linebacker also had double-digit tackles on defence for the Knights. Carney then took it 15 yards to the Centaur 38 for a second first down. He then scrambled to the Centennial nine, setting up the final heroics. “In past seasons, we got better toward the end of the season. We peak at the right moments and

it keeps gettting better,” Hilliam added. “It’s like a train – tons of momentum.” With two games yet to play, STM all but locked up a playoff spot with the win. They put up 500 yards of total offence to just 378 for last season’s provincial champs. “We won the game, but we could have played better,” STM head coach Bernie Kully admitted. “We have the potential to improve again.” That opportunity will come this Friday when the Knights tackle the No. 1-ranked W.J. Mouat Hawks in Abbotsford.

Clan just whistling Dixie Tom Berridge

sports editor

Simon Fraser University missed perhaps its best opportunity for a win in Great Northwest conference football last Saturday. The Clan was 30 minutes away from their first NCAA Division II victory but failed to score in the second half of play in an 18-15 loss to Dixie State University in St. George, Utah. The loss overshadowed a season-high 504 yards of total offence for SFU, while the Clan defence held Dixie State to just 204 yards. It also spoilt another outstanding performance by Bo Palmer rushing the ball. Palmer racked up 194 yards on the ground, including an 80-yard touchdown run to end the first half that

put the Clan ahead 15-10 at halftime. But in the second half, the only score came from Dixie State on a 10-yard pass from quarterback Cody Stevenson to tight end Alex Nelson late in the third quarter. SFU drove to Dixie’s 19yard line on its final possession of the game, but Carlos Martinez’s field goal attempt was blocked with eight seconds left in the game. “We were moving the ball and doing the things we wanted to do, but the third quarter was just brutal, and we made a number of stupid mistakes that just beat us up,” said SFU head coach Dave Johnson in a school press release. The Clan opened the scoring in the first quarter on freshman quarterback

Greg Bowcott’s one-yard touchdown plunge that capped off an eight-play, 53-yard drive. Bowcott, in his first collegiate start, completed 16 of 36 passes for 233 yards and one interception. His longest play from scrimmage was a 50-yard strike to Mathis Baumbach. Baumbach finished with seven catches for 164 yards. Justin Capicciotti led the Clan defensively with seven tackles and one sack. Blair West and Adam Berger also registered solo sacks. The Clan are back in action Saturday when they host second-place Humboldt State in their final home game of the season. Game time is 3 p.m. at Terry Fox Field.

Football: Two key games on Friday continued from page 29

over the line from nine yards out of reach with just over three minutes left to play. Lineman Michael Herdman sacked Gentile with just seconds remaining to snuff out a last-ditch effort from New Westminster. “It’s what we got to do – keep winning,” said Devlin after the game. “Our line really stepped it up. We all worked canucks.com/teamstoreoutlet

really hard tonight because we knew we had to win.” That win sets up a potential tiebreaking scenerio in Notre Dame’s favour should the Jugglers end up tied with New Westminster and Mt. Douglas at season’s end. This Friday, Earl Marriot plays Notre Dame at Burnaby Lake-West, while New Westminster is at Carson Graham.

WILLIAM ROY BROWN

Born - Bulyea, Sask. Mar. 13, 1912 Died - Royal Columbian Hospital Oct. 12, 2010 Family and friends will gather at First Presbyterian Church, 355 7th Street in New Westminster, at 2:00 pm on October 30, 2010, to celebrate the life of Roy Brown who passed peacefully in the evening of Oct. 12, at the age of 98. Roy’s life was shared with his wife, Anna for 72 years - Anna will sorely miss him. During his life, he served his country in the Canadian Armed Forces in WWII. Wounded twice, he fought in France, North Africa, Italy and Greece. He then taught school in Hedley, Keremeos and Kelowna for 35 years, during which time he and Anna raised four children - Rodney, Lorne, Charlene and Patricia. His devotion to his seven grandchildren and four great-grandchildren represented everything that Roy’s life encompassed – his faith and a strong sense of family. He will always be loved and remembered. Donations, if anyone wishes, may be made to the Salvation Army on Columbia Street in New Westminster.
