Kids not ready for school Downtown kindergartners vulnerable BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com

And he talked of a similar hotel in Toronto that had been saved from the wreckers: “Rather than tear it down, they fixed it up for $3 million.” On the other side of the hotel, A&D Flagging’s Hank Lyons made sure traffic kept out of the danger zone. In a single hour Tuesday, just

downtown Chilliwack neighbourhood registered the second highest percentage of vulnerable kindergartners in B.C. last year, according to an ongoing study at UBC that measures the school preparedness of children across the province. Results released this week show almost two out of three children who started kindergarten in the neighbourhood that includes Central and McCammon elementary schools were ill-prepared because of social, emotional, language, communications and physical health deficits. “Students are behind in key areas when starting school and too many never catch up,” says the report, describing children considered vulnerable according the study’s assessment tool, the Early Development Instrument (EDI). The tool is a 104-point checklist kindergarten teachers complete for each child in their class to measure physical health, social competence, emotional maturity, language development and communication skills. Children who score low are considered vulnerable, and downtown Chilliwack has consistently posted some of the highest vulnerability percentages in the province. “Low EDI scores have to do with parents’ literacy levels, poverty, jobrelated stress or just living-related stress,” said Karin Rempel, Chillwack’s EDI representative and community co-ordinator for the Chilliwack Early Years Committee.

Upfront New airport roof Chilliwack council voted Monday to spend $119,668 to replace the roof of the Chilliwack Airport. The value of the lowest bid exceeded the initial amount allocated to replacing the roof, which is about 25 years old and has leaked in the past. The contract was awarded to Cascade Roofing & Waterproofing. According to a staff report, “given the current poor condition of the ‘upper roof,’ it is necessary that the roof be replaced in 2010.”

Power outage Most of Chilliwack briefly went dark Tuesday morning thanks to a bird that caused a high voltage power line. About 55,000 people from Chilliwack to Boston Bar were without power for less than 10 minutes just before 9 a.m.

2002 Fertilizer flip-flop

Chilliwack’s mayor and council caught everyone by surprise when they effectively shut down Agrirecycle’s proposed fertilizer plant. In the month since council “lent quiet support”to the idea of locating a plant that would cook raw chicken manure into organic fertilizer pellets, the outcry from Greendale residents who did not want it in their neighbourhood was loud and clear. No public hearing was ever held on the matter.

‘Can-do’ attitude serves him well Manning credits Strahl’s real-life experience in business for his success

Part two of a feature on Chilliwack MP Chuck Strahl.

BY DARAH HANSEN Vancouver Sun

hile MP Chuck Strahl has many fans, he also has a few detractors when it comes to the work he’s done in politics, particularly when he was Minister of Indian and Northern Affairs. Clarence Pennier, Grand Chief of the Sto:lo Tribal Council in Strahl’s local riding, said he’s been frustrated with Strahl. Among his concerns is the government’s slow response to restore aboriginal status to people who had lost it through discriminatory provisions of the Indian Act, and to their children. He also questioned the government’s commitment to settle B.C.’s outstanding land claims, noting its dismissal of a First Nations proposal to deal with six common issues at a collective provincial table. “They came back to us and said, ‘Well, no, we’re not going to do it that way.’ It really didn’t help treaty negotiations,” Pennier said. Still, like so many people who’ve dealt with Strahl firsthand, Pennier had nothing negative to say about the man himself. “He’s a good person,” Pennier said. “The times we’ve met, we have been able to talk to each other about different issues, like our families, getting caught up, things like that.” Crowder agreed. “There are a couple of things about Chuck: he is a father and a grandfather. He has a big heart. I think he genuinely cares for people,” she said. Among friends and constituents who have repeatedly, and overwhelmingly, cast their votes in his favour, Strahl is revered as a strong and fair political leader, someone who has never lost his sense of self— or his commitment to the community—despite his many years in Parliament.

Agriculture Minister Chuck Strahl, right, and former Immigration Minister Monte Solberg eat breakfast in their downtown Ottawa apartment back in May of 2006. They are best friends in the political world. “He is really respected in the city, beyond just our church ... He hasn’t become simply an Ottawa person. He hasn’t forgotten his riding,” said Leon Throness, lead pastor of the Chilliwack Alliance Church, where Strahl is a longtime member of the congregation. Throness, who has known the Strahls for the past two years, said the quiet manner he has chosen to deal with his cancer is a true reflection of the man. “If you discover that you may not have as long as you thought you

might, what are you going to do with that time? Will you curl up in a ball and say, ‘God is not good’? Or will you just walk by faith and say, “This is what I feel called to do.’ “Isn’t that a nice way to approach life? To me, I think, ‘How refreshing,’” he said. And, no conversation about Strahl is complete without mention of his sense of humour. Indeed, said longtime friend and former political ally Monte Solberg, that’s what pulled him through the dark days following Strahl’s devas-

tating diagnosis. “It is one of the moments of your life you don’t forget,” Solberg, now a newspaper columnist, said of the day he learned of Strahl’s illness. But just days later, Strahl was already joking about a potential lifesaving lung transplant suggested by a doctor. “Chuck was describing it to me and he said, ‘They basically gut you and take an old Safeway bag and an old Styrofoam cup and fill you up,’” Solberg said, the memory of that conversation prompting so much laughter on the other end of the phone he was temporarily unable to talk. “Pardon me,” he said, pulling himself together, but “that is how he is able to set aside his obviously difficult personal travails and make light of them. That is part of his charm.” Manning recalled the young Strahl —then a partner in “He is really his famrespected in ily-run road constructhe city, tion and beyond just logging company our church —he first . . . He hasn’t met in 1992 as someone become simply who immean Ottawa perdiately impressed son. He hasn’t him with forgotten his his positive, “c a n - d o” riding.” attitude. Leon Throness “He bore a palatable confidence in his ability to do the job, despite a lack of political experience,” Manning said in a telephone interview from Calgary. Over the years, Manning said he’s been impressed with Strahl’s continued growth in the job, crediting his “real-life” experience in business for his success. Certainly, being a logger, rather than lawyer, hasn’t hurt him. “People who have come from the real world, particularly the economic side, understand what real wealth creation is. They are not just talking about it. They know about managing people, and satisfying customers. This is the real economic world and the more people who are in Parliament who have real world experience, I think the better it is,” he said. At the transport helm, Strahl now See STRAHL, Page 28

Stack rather than spread for approval

BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

ouncil rejected a proposal for a downtown townhouse development Monday after neighbours filed a petition opposing the plan. A developer had asked council to create a “comprehensive development zone” that would have allowed the construction of 42 townhouses on four combined lots just north of the intersection of Yale Road and Broadway. But after receiving a petition from neighbours, council unanimously voted to send the proposal back to the drawing board. Coun. Pat Clark told the Times that council was uncomfortable with the reduced setbacks between the proposed townhouses and property lines and Yale Road. The 7,030-square-metre (1.75-acre) complex would have been accessible from both Yale Road and Macken Avenue, and neighEMPRESS, from page 1 before the facade was brought down, he said a dozen or so people had inquired about bricks salvaged from the building. “One fellow was born in one of those rooms back in ‘54 or something,” said Lyons. Two other men said they were bartenders in the hotel—one near the very beginning, another at the very end.” Lyons said one of the foremen said some bricks would be placed outside of the fence following the demolition, although it wasn’t

bours expressed concern about the increased traffic on Macken. Council agreed. “Council were concerned about the extra density that was being asked for there,” said Clark. While Chilliwack has many apartment buildings that surpass the proposed density of the complex, those residents are stacked, rather than spread, over the property. “That way they get the density by going up,” said Clark. But the large number of townhouses exceeded city zoning requirements for similar properties, hence the plea for the comprehensive development zone. Clark said that there are good aspects to the proposed complex, including the close proximity to a park. “I didn’t hear any councillors saying we don’t want townhouses there. They were just uncomfortable with the number.” But she said the development, as proposed, was pushing the boundaries a little too far. “You want to make sure as much as you can right at the beginning of things that a project is going to be good for as many kinds of residents as possible.”

Police seize 63-plus kilos of ecstasy

BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

ederal drug cops made a major ecstasy drug bust Tuesday in Chilliwack and Abbotsford. As part of a continuing investigation, officers seized 36 kilograms of ecstasy from a secret gas tank compartment in a pickup truck stopped while driving eastbound through Chilliwack on Highway 1. The drugs were found in what police described as “a sophisticated, magnetic and electrically-operated compartment in the gas tank.” Police then searched the house of the truck’s lone occupant, a 47-year-old

Submitted photo

More than 200,000 pillls of ecstasy were discovered in a house and gas tank. Abbotsford man. There they found 27.5 kilograms more of ecstasy in a suitcase at the house. In total, more than 200,000 pills, with an estimated street value of between $1 million and $1.6

million, were seized in the bust. Police say the truck’s driver, who has been released from custody but will likely face trafficking charges, does not have “a significant drug history.” However, RCMP drug enforcement spokesperson Michael McLaughlin said the number and value of the drugs seized, and the fact they were hidden for a long journey, “suggests that this file is linked to organized crime.” McLaughlin noted “British Columbia is known as a place for the production of synthetic drugs” and transport to the United States would not be unusual, even if the driver was headed away from all Lower Mainland border crossings.

Assistant superintendent Michael Audet has tendered his resignation with School District No. 33.

Asst. super takes early retirement BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com

he Chilliwack school district is losing another senior administrator. Less than a month after secretar y treasurer Ray Velestuk announced he was accepting a position in Abbotsford, assistant superintendent Michael Audet announced this month he will retire at the end of December. The 57-year-old Audet, who has served as assistant superintendent for School District No. 33 since 2006, cites personal reasons for his early retirement and said the timing is right for the district as well. “As much as it may seem part way through the year et cetera, I think it’s a very good time for the district and for myself,” he said in an interview with the Times. The announcement surprised school board trustees and district staff. “I don’t think people had it in their sights,” said superintendent Corinne McCabe, “Michael hides his age well. He’s got incredible energy, so nobody thought he was slowing down, and he hasn’t been.” The district is now looking for Audet’s replacement both within its own ranks and outside of the district. Either way, hiring two new district-level administrators will mean some shuffling at the board office, according to McCabe. “Any time you have senior people leaving it means

you’re going to redesign your team and you’re going to look at things a little differently,” she said, “so it creates some additional challenges, but it also creates additional opportunities to get fresh new ideas and re-energize yourself.” Audet came to the Chilliwack district in 1981 after four years of teaching in Quesnel. He taught French at Sardis secondary until 1989, when he accepted a district principal position at the board office. From 2002 to 2006 he served as director of instruction and then stepped into the assistant superintendent’s post. One legacy of his tenure in that role is the district’s Aboriginal Education Enhancement Agreement, a three-year project signed in February, which Audet oversaw from beginning to end. Last May, when McCabe was on vacation, Audet also took on the tough role of district spokesperson when Sardis elementary school t e a c h e r Ja s o n Ep p w a s accused of sexually assaulting two students. When Audet retires at the end of December, he said he plans to “take stock,” spend more time with family and possibly pursue volunteer work in the community. “We’re pleased for him and his family,” said McCabe, “and we’ll certainly miss him. He’s been a huge part of this operation for many many years and will be hard to replace.”

◗ Opinion

Could life get more unfair?

have to pay for my own education. I pay taxes on every dollar I earn. There are no jobs set aside for people who match my ethnicity or gender. And every now and then I have to ask a clerk at the grocery store to repeat him or herself. Poor me. Life is unfair. I have things so tough. The government discriminates against me. Whine. Whine. Whine. I’ve had enough of this blather. It is strange that the same people most likely to complain about their own victimization at the hands of so-called political correctness are the same sort of people who probably tell their kids to “suck it up” when the voice register climbs. And yet, these same people will gripe, gripe, gripe about how hard done by they are. You want fair. Let’s be fair. Of course, if we try and give some people a hand up, there will be cries of reverse discrimination and so on. So let’s take the opposite approach: a swift, equalizing shove down for everyone. You want a free college education? Fine. Poof, you’re on a native reserve in the north with a 10-year-old boil water advi-

TYLER OLSEN

Win,Lose orTy sory. Your high school doesn’t have the courses you need to prepare yourself for university. Your community has endemic poverty. The residential schools are closed but their legacy lives on in the form of widespread alcoholism. If you’re lucky, you have a distant relative in another city who you can go to live with when you are 13 years old. But that wouldn’t be fair, so you’re stuck on the reserve. Your band has lived on this land for hundreds of years, but now the animals are gone and there are no jobs and little hope. Now we’re talking fair. Now you can complain. You want a chance at those jobs with quotas for visible minorities? Bam! Your parents speak broken English. While they probably have multiple degrees, they’re not often home as they work a graveyard service job.

Also their English skills means they can’t proofread that critical Grade 12 essay of yours. And don’t ask them if your resume looks OK. Fortunately, most people don’t mind that you have darker skin. Unfortunately, some do. You can only hope they aren’t in positions of power. Do you want to be a part of a club where membership is restricted to your gender? Fine, you have no testicles. Be very, very careful whenever you exercise in public. Also, work your butt off because you have to get a foothold in your career quickly if you want to have a child by the time you are 35. Oh, and forget ever hitting an out-of-the-park home run in softball. But, we’re still not being really fair. Brace yourself for another equalizing shove. Ready? You’re standing on the roof of your clay hut, up to your your knees in flood water in Pakistan. Your government isn’t going to help you. Your family is miles away, but they’re huddled in a refugee camp, and their village is underwater. Oh, and you’re illiterate. But there’s good news. You are now entitled to start complaining.

f it takes a village to raise a child, we are failing badly downtown, and it’s going to cost everyone in the long run. Results this week from a study at UBC show almost two out of three kids going into kindergarten at Chilliwack north schools aren’t ready because of deficits in physical health, social skills, emotional maturity, language development and communication skills. The results are more dismal than anywhere else in B.C. except downtown Prince George. What troubles us is that the number of kids considered vulnerable has crept up in the past 10 years despite attempts by community partners to put more services in place for downtown families. Chilliwack Early Years community coordinator Karin Rempel said she is measuring success “one family at a time,” but if the number of kids unprepared for school continues to hover around 60 per cent in certain Chilliwack neighbourhoods, we’re not doing enough or we’re not doing the right things to support the families that live in them. There is a 40 per cent gap between the vulnerability rates for downtown kindergartners and kids in neighbourhoods like Promontory. Maybe your neighbourhood is doing OK, and pouring more money and resources into downtown for family and early-childhood programs isn’t an appealing proposition, but ultimately everyone in the village pays when it fails to raise one of its own. The report released this week warns that kids who start kindergarten vulnerable often never catch up. They often fail to graduate from high school and generally earn less money, pay fewer taxes and create a bigger drain on our healthcare system because of poor health. Supporting downtown families and kids just enough to allow 60 per cent of them to start school behind their peers doesn’t make sense. If we’re going to throw money at this problem, let’s make sure it’s enough to get all kids off on the right foot. Let’s make sure it’s enough for us not to have to pay again later.

MLA Penner invokes scare tactics

Editor: Mr. Penner’s comments in your latest edition regarding the HST referendum cannot go unanswered. Mr. Penner might be better to (as the saying goes) “remain silent and be thought a fool, than to have opened his mouth and removed all doubt.” He attempts to make four points, which clearly illustrate that the scare tactics have begun. 1. “Reinstating the PST would require hiring 300 provincial tax collectors” Excuse me, but why not employ the same people you had in place doing that job three months ago? Perhaps you now have them administering the HST rebates? Or twiddling their thumbs? 2. “$230 annual HST rebates to 1.1 million British Columbians would be stopped.” Of course they would. Why would you continue the rebates if the HST is discontinued? And what is it costing to administer that program? 3. “The former PST would put B.C. at a competitive disadvantage to Alberta and Ontario.” Maybe Mr. Penner needs to revisit math 101. Are we at a greater disadvantage today with a 12 per cent GST rate compared to Alberta’s five per cent GST rate than we were previous to the implementation of HST, when the tax differential was exactly the same as it is today? The fallacy that B.C. industries will lower prices is just that. Has anyone out there noticed lower prices in the past three months? 4. Mr. Penner goes on to say, that most importantly, we may want to consider “where the $1.6 billion will come from to repay the feds.” This is the biggest scare tactic of all. There is no free money. The $1.6 billion fed payment was used by the Liberals to make their deficit look smaller than it really is. So obviously, it will be added back into the deficit, and a spade will be called a spade. Look around and you will see that there has been a ton of capital spending going on in recent years. Much of it is badly needed, and there is a cost. It appears however that the current government will

To view our letters/privacy policy visit our website at www. chilliwacktimes.com. resort to anything (especially HST) to avoid raising income tax rates, because they love to be able to claim the lowest provincial income tax rates in Canada. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that it’s not the income tax rate alone that determines our individual tax well-being; it’s what remains in our pockets after the government takes all those user taxes and fees, in addition to the tax on income. Just one example is the recently imposed “carbon tax,” which means that British Columbians now pay the government more than 20 cents in tax on every litre of gasoline sold in this province. I believe this is the highest in Canada, and about 25 per cent higher than Alberta pays. (There’s that “competitive disadvantage” again.) I’m very tired of hearing that our economy will benefit from HST. Personally, my wallet is lighter because of it and I haven’t met one person who doesn’t realize it is costing more. Anyone who eats in a restaurant, or buys a home, or insurance, or uses the services of a lawyer, a vet, or a medical practitioner, etc., etc., will also have a lighter wallet because of HST. They could have lightened the burden by introducing a lower HST rate, say 10 per cent. As it is, it’s a tax grab. The fact that the Liberals have decided to spend another $30 million to conduct an unnecessary referendum, and that it will be held more than a year away, underscores the utter contempt in which they hold the electorate. Let the recalls begin, please. K. Ritchey Chilliwack

More vehicles will be driven Editor: In my opinion the light rail proposal is long overdue. Anyone who has driven Highway 1 from here to Vancouver realizes that it is almost impossible to find a particular time of day that the traffic is not congested and it becomes even more congested and dangerous from Abbotsford to Vancouver. The construction presently under way, when completed, won’t reduce the congestion much—it will simply attract more vehicles. Ideally, the commuter rail should also have a stop at Abbotsford to pick up its commuters—and have reasonable fares which commuters find within their budgets. The cost of the project is easily affordable by the province if taken from the carbon tax fund. After all, that fund is legislated for environmental use only, and what better environmental cause than to drastically reduce vehicle traffic on the highway? Barry Penner, specifically, and Gordon Campbell should be embracing this project. In a recent letter I commented on our Immigration Department’s policy of funding new immigrants (a one-time payment of about $1,300 to establish accommodation followed by payments of $710 per month for one year or until employment begins, whichever comes first). However, there are factors which could alter those figures. For instance, in this last bunch of boat people there is a pregnant, disabled

mother with two young children. If she is allowed to remain you can bet Canadian taxpayers will fund her support for quite some time yet she or her family and/or husband initially gave some unsavory character the required $40- to $50,000 to be on the ship bound for generous Canada. You would think that the funding to get her on the ship would finance her support in her own country for quite some time. Jack Stewart Chilliwack

Epp trial simply taking too long Editor: I have no knowledge or views on Jason Epp’s innocence or guilt. However, it borders on unbelievable that the trial is still a year away. This is manifestly unfair both to the accused, his family and to the alleged victims. It will take over three times as long to arrange this trial as it did the Nuremberg War Trials. Justice delayed is indeed justice denied. Ron Taylor Chilliwack

Taser wasn’t cause of death Editor: I am writing to you regarding Tyler Olsen’s article entitled, “Taser death delay; RCMP failing to sign-off on Knipstrom report now 300 days overdue,” in the Sept. 17 Chilliwack Times. The article itself indicates the RCMP pepper sprayed, Tasered and hit the decendent with a baton. It further went on to mention the coroner’s inquest linked the decedent’s death being linked to, “excited delirium” and “serious ecstasy intoxication.” Nowhere in your article does it mention the death was caused by the use of a taser. My concern is the misleading and sensational headline. This headline appears to be an obvious attempt to garner advertising revenue by linking this case to the continuing mali-

cious and unethical reporting of incidents involving police and taser use. The headline is incorrect and unethical according to your own article. Members of the B.C. Mounted Police Professional Association (BCMPPA) along with their brothers and sisters in the Canadian Police Association (CPA) continue to make our communities safer using the tools and training provided to them by the RCMP. The use of the phrase, “Taser death” portrays BCMPPA members in a negative and incorrect light. As the editor, you have final say in how the story is to appear. Please ensure your articles and headlines are factual regarding the BCMPPA and its members. The headline disappointingly betrays the usual professional and factual reporting by the Times and its staff. Leland Keane, member B.C. Mounted Police Professional Association

Maybe they’ll slip us $1,000 Editor: It appears our favourite MLA, John Les, is on the recall hit parade. Mr. Vander Zalm could not have picked a better target. He represents one of the most morally corrupt goverments that B.C. has had the misfortune to have in power. HST comes to mind, then let’s not forget the B.C. Rail mess. I guess we could go on and on, but the people of B.C. are really starting to see the true colours of this goverment. I think Barry Penner should also get on the hit list. All they do is “yes sir, no sir, how high Mr. Campbell.” Why don’t they get out in their ridings and find out just what people think of HST. Maybe they are talking to their buddies in Ontario and trying to find out how fast they can get cheques out to voters before the HST vote. Don’t be surprised if they try and slip us a $1,000 of our own money to help with the voting in September. Christmas time would be good Mr. Campbell R. Anderson Chilliwack

Try to provide people a path of forgiveness BY SCOTT STREET Chilliwack House Churches

hy is it that I am so ungracious to those around me? Not that long ago I had to go apologize to a lady who works at the Post Office. The reality is that I was rude to her for something that was out of her control. I think that I am mostly grateful for the positive effects that our culture affords us, but the negative effects of consumerism are hard to take sometimes. Specifically, I am referring to my expectation that other people will serve me like I expect to be served by culture. I want my life to operate like a fast food restaurant. I want what

I want now, how I want it, with no excuses or hiccups, and with little or no cost to me. Come on now, don’t even try and convince yourself that you don’t fall into that mentality most of the time. It seems to me that the pressure of consumerism is eroding the interpersonal margin of goodwill that previously existed through relationship. Where previously there was grace for the other person for being human, we only see a cog that is not functioning in a way that benefits us. I have sensed a general disconnect between people relationally because of this, because it seems we view each other as commodi-

ties or products to fulfill a service in our lives. There is a letter in the Bible that talks a lot about how to be a well-functioning community—the letter to the Ephesians. One section of that letter says, “. . . making allowance for each other’s faults because of your love.” Now, this is speaking specifically to people who follow Christ, and calls them to treat each other in this way because of their shared love of God, but I think our world would be generally better served if this was a common theme in how we act toward one another. What I am experiencing in the world in general seems to be exactly the

opposite of that. Here is a great example of this. When my wife and I were writing our vows before our marriage, my wife-to-be went online to see if she could find anything to inspire her. The most astounding line she found on a regular basis was, “I will help you to be economically prosperous.” At the end of the day, I don’t find this attitude in our world particularly life-giving, nor do I find that the results of this attitude provide any real good for us in general. I think it is ultimately dehumanizing, and further creates gaps between us as people. So to those who will read this

Locals vault to the top of provincials

hilliwack vaulters shone at last weekend’s B.C. Provincial Championships at Heritage Park. Equestrian vaulters from two Chilliwack area clubs were among the 150 athletes and their horses that entered the arena. Taking top honors among local athletes was Cheam Vaulters’ Ali McKitrick, who had a personal best score in Division B canter and was named the B.C. women’s reserve champion. Teammate Abigale Wynberg excelled in Division C canter and took home the trophy for the Zone 3 (Fraser Valley) reserve champion. High-ranking competitors in the individual competition included Cheam’s Bailey Sutcliffe and Alanna Stewart, who finished first and third respectively in Division D walk. Rianna Stiller of the Savvy

Seniors stroke towards podium

Vaulters in Chilliwack was third in the Division C walk class, the largest class in the competition. In the mounted team competition, which features up to three vaulters on the horse at the same time, the Cheam entry placed first. Team members were Alisa Schmidt, who also coaches the team, Darla Ricka, Shelby MaletzComm, Abigale Wynberg, Sierra, Levi and Helga Pankonin. Other local competitors included: Sierra Pankonin and Alexis Hamilton, both of Cheam, who tied for seventh in Division D trot; Jasmyne Stainton, of Savvy, and Kayla Ferguson, of Cheam, who tied for seventh in Division C walk; Levi Pankonin, of Cheam, who took sixth in Division D walk; and the FUNdamentals demonstration class of Morgan Holcik and Liam Sutcliffe of Cheam.

hilliwack super senior Lolita Rochleau swam away with a staggering eight medals from last weekend’s B.C. Seniors Games in the Comox Valley and Campbell River. Rochleau, who swims out of a Surrey senior’ swim club, claimed gold in the 400- and 800metre freestyle events and the 100- and 200-metre individual medleys. Rochleau claimed individual silver in the 50-metre butterfly and 200-metre freestyle, and she was part of a silvermedal-winning freestyle relay team. She capped her weekend by swimming the butterfly anchor leg in the medley relay. While she didn’t quite match her teammate, Chilliwack’s Paula Quick also had a successful games. Quick claimed silver in the 50-metre freestyle and bronze medals in the 200-, 400- and 800-metre freestyle events in her age group. She also finished fourth in the 25metre freestyle.

Simulating success Times sports reporter Tyler Olsen puts his thumbs to work finding out how Bruins will fare this year BY TYLER OLSEN tolsen@chilliwacktimes.com

fter a slow start, the Chilliwack Bruins will ride a workhorse goalie to their best-ever Western Hockey League season before falling, in four straight games, in the playoffs to the eventual Memorial Cup victors. Or at least that’s how a very unscientific simulation of the upcoming hockey season would have it. With the Chilliwack Bruins and other Canadian Hockey League teams included in EA Sports’ NHL 11 video game for the very first time, the Times used the game to simulate a full season. (Full disclosure: the accuracy of such a simulation is very much in question—the game uses rosters from the end of last season, meaning Alexander Wiklund is back in and Robin Soudek, among others. Plus, it’s a video game. Enough said.) In the simulation, the Bruins

struggled out of the gate and sat in ninth place, one game under .500 at the Christmas break. Only the Vancouver Giants were worse in the west. But there must have been something in the digital turkeys the players supposedly ate over the break, as the Bruins came out strong in 2011 and finished fourth in the conference with a 37-29-6 record. Ryan Howse led the Bruins in scoring but saw his goal total drop substantially, to just 27, from the previous (real) year. Roman Horak added another 26 goals but the trio of Kevin Sundher, Jamie Crooks and Chris Collins all disappointed, recording less than 20 markers. In goal, Lucas Gore started every single game with Braden Gamble playing only 23 minutes in relief (he didn’t allow a goal). Despite the strong end to the season, the Bruins crumbled in the playoffs as the Portland Winterhawks demolished them in four games. Portland went on to knock off Prince Albert to claim the

Another simulation run by the Times had the Bruins advancing to the second round before falling to Seattle. In that game, the Medicine Hat Tigers won

the Memorial Cup. Realistic or not, the game is getting a lot of attention from Bruins players, most of whom grew up playing video games. Jamie Crooks (rated 62 in the game) said “it’s pretty cool” to see himself and his teammates in a video game even if,

But his body checking (62) and fighting (60) ratings left a little to be desired by the real player. Ryan Howse garnered the best ratings, a fact that didn’t surprise his teammates, according to Crooks. The Bruins have set up their own intra-squad tour-

nament to determine the king of the hill. At the present time, Crooks said Ryan Howse and Lucas Gore are the biggest threats to his quest for the cup. Pe r h a p s s u r p r i s i n g l y, perhaps not, the Bruins are playing with NHL players, not their own likenesses and opponents. Asked if he had placed himself skating on a line with Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, Crooks said: “No, that would slow them down too much.”

A guide to the new kitchen options BY HELEN PETERSON Special to the Times

’ve been fascinated with kitchens for most of my life, ever since my dad would come home from work with the scent of sawdust on his clothes (he worked for various kitchen cabinet makers for years). Then there was the indoctrination I received in my teens as the family dinner-maker. (Mom worked the afternoon shift, so I was thrown “into the fire” at our gas stove.) As an accomplished cook, when I see a large, gorgeous kitchen set-up with all the latest amenities and gadgets, and working counter space that goes on for miles, I’ll admit to becoming green with envy, having reached full cupboard capacity long ago in my little condo galley, along with a stove that really could be considered childsized. Who are these lucky people who can chop, fry, bake,

serve, and clean up effortlessly in their beautiful “entertainment centres?” I asked Paul Coker, coowner of Innova Kitchens, to share his take on getting started on a kitchen makeover, what’s popular with Lower Mainland homeowners, and the reasons why these newer options are probably here to stay. “Regardless of whether you are renovating an old space, which is actually 70 per cent of our business, or building a brand new home, a kitchen plan needs to incorporate three main goals,” says Coker. “It’s got to provide functionality for you and your family; it’s got to be as environmentally ‘green’ as possible; and it’s got to have the aesthetics and colour schemes that please you.” Whether your budget includes DIY, a trip to IKEA or using a recommended renovator/kitchen expert, upgrading your kitchen still needs to fulfil those criteria.

Planning is also important. Coker says before you get started ripping cabinets off walls, you should be making some lists, and checking them twice. “You’ve got your priority kitchen installations, what I call ‘have-to-haves,” says Coker. “Then you have your optionals, known as ‘nice-tohaves.’ So, work from the priority list and then see what’s left in the budget to implement the dream items. “Either way, you’re likely going to end up with a kitchen that is far improved from before, and will also up your property’s value substantially.”

Tough growing Clematis ANNE MARRISON

Green Thumb plant in front of the clematis to give its roots the shade it likes. But it’s important for all the stems to be in sunlight to harden and mature before winter arrives. Your northwest location was probably not sunny enough and later wind-chill from the north froze the roots and lower part of the stems. Yet another point is the importance of the region where your clematis was grown prior to reaching the nursery. If your clematis spent its early life in California it would need extra protection while it got acclimatized to our winters. The only other evergreen clematis that’s available here is C. cirrhosa which has creamy bells in late autumn/ early winter. It’s not as spectacular as C. armandii, but the flowers are very welcome at that time of year. It needs exactly the same situation and care as C. armandii.

KITCHEN, from page 16 your Mom’s lazy-Susan); Lemans pull-outs. Wall cabinets with lift-and-hold style systems, rather than traditional pull-opens: frosted glass hides objects but gives a sense of what’s inside. Dark espresso is “moving out”—lighter finishes, including sophisticated greys, take over. Appliances run better on less electricity. Fridges provide function and less backache. Flat-surface induction “quick cooking” takes over—in gas or electric, it is safer and conserves energy. Eco-friendliness Bamboo cabinetry is big, it has a great appearance, too. Welcome eco-wood—an exotic real wood made from engineered veneer called “strias.” Top-finishes aren’t of

unseeable pest? Gay McMillan E-mail A: Basil is loved by almost every pest under the sun. But my top suspect would be slugs. Sometimes slugs live in the drainage holes at the bottom of pots. Since the bites are small, it might be a very young, small slug. You can protect your basil by sticking a copper tape which slugs won’t cross around the pots. Garden centres sell this tape. Q: Two years ago I bought a nice little Maltese Cross plant and it got lost in the shade behind much bigger plants. This year it struggled to bloom and the blooms came up not red, but white. Have you seen or heard of this kind of thing? Diana Jewell Mission A: Some Maltese Cross plants do have white flowers. But if they were red when you bought it, the white form could have grown from a seed already in the soil. Maltese Cross is a perennial. It needs moist conditions. If bigger plants were keeping it very dry, the original could have died but the seed germinated when conditions were right. ◗ Anne Marrison is happy to answer garden questions.

Stone-resin tops are losing popularity, but granite is still in demand.

Estimated Annual Heating Costs (Savings) for a typical 2,500 sq. ft. house. In Vancouver, a 2,500 sq. ft. house with a gas furnace and a COP of 0.85 would spend approximately $1,378 in heating bills in one year. If this same house were equipped with a standard electric heater, one year of heating could cost you an enormous $2,967. Zuba-Central, on the other hand, would only cost about $904. Even though Zuba-Central also uses electricity, it is staggering how much more efﬁcient it actually is. This means you would save $474, or 34%, a year on energy costs over a gas furnace, and $2,063, or 70%, over electric heaters. That’s a potential savings of almost $20,000 in your pocket over 10 years.

Q: Three of us purchased Clematis armandii between May and September last year. All three died. All had grown in pots to about four to five inches. I planted mine in early October on the northwest face of my garage. It died in April after growing along the south side of the garage and reaching 15 feet in length. Is there some inherent defect with this type of clematis? Could you suggest another flowering, evergreen climbing clematis that would grow in the location described? Helen Hunt Vancouver A: Clematis armandii is commonly sold here but it’s not 100 per cent hardy. It needs a sheltered, warm location. I don’t know the full situation with the other two so I’ll focus on your clematis. It’s very likely the same factors apply to all of them. October planting is very risky with not-quite-hardy evergreen plants. Spring planting allows them a longer time to settle in until winter cold hits again. If fall planting is essential, it’s crucial to mulch roots and the base of the stem before winter. Leaves or straw held in with wire would make a good mulch. Also the southwest wall of your garage would have been a better planting choice. You can always position a bushy

At Home BY MARC ATIYOLIL Postmedia News Dear Marc: I am building a new house and will be designing it myself. I have heard horror stories of designs gone bad from friends who didn’t do their research prior to designing their home. Do you have a few quick tips of things I should avoid doing on my first design project? - Tara Dear Tara: The top rookie mistakes when designing your first project are the following: 1. Hanging artwork too high. This is a common mistake for many homeowners. You shouldn’t have to look up to see the “focal point” of

First home rookie mistakes your art piece. The focal point of the piece is where the artist intended to draw the eye and is usually the centre of the painting. In order to determine your focal point, simply measure the piece and divide its height in half. Then take that measurement to determine the centre of the painting. You will want to hang the painting so the focal point is at eye level—five-foot seven-inches for the average person. 2. High-energy vibrant colours in a bedroom. Have you ever noticed that hotel rooms always have calm

and peaceful colour schemes? Bedrooms in your home should be a place where one can relax and unwind. Calm colour schemes include pastels and neutrals. If you choose to bring in a vibrant colour in your bedroom design, do so with the use of vibrant-coloured accessories. This is a great way to have colour without overwhelming the eye. 3. The scale of furniture. Scale is of utmost importance in a home. It is quite easy to keep furniture and accessories in scale once you under-

stand that every piece in the room connects to each other somehow. For instance, if you have a small living room it would not be wise to bring in large, overstuffed furniture as the piece will overpower the entire setting. The space will look and feel crowded. 4. Avoid clutter. Clutter is the easiest way to fail at designing a room. It is human nature to collect things over the years. People tend to remember things that strike them, such as the beautiful hand-carved statue your friend picked up in

Europe that sits nicely by the lamp on the table, rather than 20 little accessories cluttering the side table. 5. Proper lighting.When I refer to the need for proper lighting, I am not referring to designer fixtures versus everyday fixtures, but rather the actual function of the light source in a space. Many homeowners look for a great-looking fixture and don’t consider how much light the fixture will emanate. The key is to have a balance between the esthetics and the functionality of the chosen fixture. ◗ Marc Atiyolil, is the editor-in-chief of Home Trends Magazine, celebrity designer, and regular contributor to numerous TV, radio and print media.

Minor Football Reds serve as Blues’ first victim The Chilliwack Atom Blue Giants finally have their first win of the season after scoring a narrow victory over their rivals, the Red Giants, 14-13 Saturday. The Blues defence made seven sacks, even as the Reds rushed for 163 yards. Justin Crooks led the way with four solo and four assisted tackles, two sacks and two touchdowns. Andrew Locke, Kole Nelles and Colton Holt also provided great efforts on defence and special teams. The offensive line of Grayson Hardie, Kaylee Roger, Sebastian Van Reeuwyk and Pharaoh Parisian led the way up front while quarterback Brandt Davies and receiver Jalen Edwards hooked up for 42 passing yards. Pivot Marley Edwards also completed a convert pass to Mack Barton-Paquette for an extra point.

Sports FOOTBALL, from page 21 a 32-0 win over the Chilliwack Red Giants. Brizuela filled in capably for injured kicker Tyler Sprott, hitting 3 of 4 converts. Noah Braun and Chris Derksen led a Blue Giants offensive line that busted open huge holes for the backs all game, and on defence Vincent Giesbrecht turned in an outstanding effort with a sack and several solo tackles. Safety Hunter Larocque intercepted two Red Giants passes while linebackers Harley Kovich Cole Wood and Lane Levesque snuffed out the opponents’ outside speed. “It was our most complete effort as a team,” noted head

Minor Football coach Mike Derksen. “There is no quit in this group.” Peewee Blue downs Red The Peewee Blue Giants defeated the Peewee Red Giants 32-22 Saturday, in a close battle for peewee football bragging rights. Running back Gabe Mannes scored three touchdowns to lead the way for the Blue Giants. Mannes ran for 191 yards on 13 carries, while fellow running back Wyatt Uzick

had nine carries for 70 yards and a touchdown. Emilio Pineda had another strong day running the ball with 7 carries for 67 yards. The Blue Giants O-line was strong with major contributions from Taj Sidhu and Tyler Desrochers. The Red Giants running attack, featuring Aiden Harvey and Hayden Orsachuk, was almost too much for the Blue Giants defence. But strong play by Blue defensive tackles Jacob Butler and Nate Onema helped sustain the Red menace. On defense, the Blue Giants were led by Uzick with five tackles.

ADVERTISING FEATURE

Avoid These Intersections ICBC is uniquely able to quantify the crashes that occur at the more than 30,000 intersections and interchanges throughout the province. In the past five years it has recorded about 450,000 crashes, about 175,000 of which have resulted in injuries. The various municipalities work to collect information Cedric Hughes about the volume of traffic on their streets and passing through their interchanges and intersections. Combining crash locations and traffic volumes highlights the problem areas in our highway and road systems, and leads to upgrades and improvements that, measurably, make a big difference. Take for example the $60,000 that ICBC spent in 2004 to assist with adding a leftturn lane at the intersection of Glen and Johnson in Coquitlam. Crashes reportedly dropped by 66 percent at this intersection, saving ICBC more than $1.5 million in claims costs. A month ago, the Vancouver Sun newspaper made an information request for ICBC’s crash data for the past five years. The Sun then used this information to create 15 interactive maps, one for each of the lower mainland municipalities. These maps are online at www. vancouversun.com/crash. Click on the map for your neighbourhood. You can zoom in and move the map around. You can select the ‘Total Crashes’ layer -the purple layer of dots- or the ‘Total Injuries’ layer -the red layer of dots. Clicking on a dot retrieves a pop-up box that lists the statistics for that intersection or interchange for the years 2005 to 2009. We urge all Road Rules readers to look at these maps and we offer praise to the Vancouver Sun newspaper for creating such an important resource.

How can individuals put this new wealth of information to good use? Crash-prone intersections are crash prone for many reasons including high traffic volume, poor road design, poor signage, the levels of surrounding distractions, and more. Could it make a difference-would there be fewer crashes-if drivers and pedestrians and Barrister & Solicitor cyclists knew that certain intersections in their neighbourhoods were more crash-prone, and indeed, that this ‘crash-proneness’ had resulted in a specified number of actual injuries? In short, despite all the other factors at work, could more of us knowing the raw numbers make a difference? One of the truisms of road safety study is that road user behaviour matters. Knowing-not just suspecting or guessingthat certain intersections are more crash prone may result in people taking different ‘safer’ routes. It may also motivate more users to take more care, to pay more attention, to think differently about how they, for example, execute their turns or watch their speed levels or scan at crosswalks. A whole lot of better-made, small-often split-second- timing decisions could add up to measurably better crash results for any given intersection. Of course people assess risk differently and drive with varying degrees of skilfulness. And the driving virtues are unevenly distributed: obedience, patience, politeness, watchfulness and carefulness. But the cumulative effect of these differences might just be offset by a greater general awareness of quantified outcomes. Without a doubt, it’s well worth the try.

Night school overcrowded? Come see the CLCS

t’s not only children that are going back to school. In the spirit of lifelong learning, hundreds of people from Chilliwack have attended workplacerelated courses this year. The Chilliwack Learning Community Society (CLCS) is pleased to celebrate Learn@Work Week by announcing its next set of courses—all in Chilliwack and all for free. T h e C LC S o f f e r s n i n e courses in total this quarter. Each of the courses applies to at least one essential skill. Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC) has identified nine essential skills for success in the workplace. They range from reading, numeracy and using documents, to using computers, thinking skills, oral communications, and working with others. Michael Berger, workplace essential skills co-ordinator for the CLCS, said, “The courses we’re offering continue to be well-received by the business community. There are a number that not only apply to a business setting, but also help improve one’s personal life too. Courses such as budgeting and credit essentials or dealing with conflict are useful anytime and anywhere.” The CLCS is excited to be running another course on Microsoft Office 2007 as well. “This is sure to be a popular course with a number of people already expressing interest in it,” Berger said. “Listening For Success, Reading and Document Use, Service Plus, Writing for the Workplace and two WorldHost courses are also being offered. The great thing about these courses is that many of them are just one day or a couple of evenings in length. It makes it easier for employed people to attend.” The CLCS is pleased with the feedback they have received from participants of previous courses. When surveyed, 95 per cent of the students rated the courses as having met their needs; with 88 per cent saying the level of difficulty of the courses was ‘just right.’ “Instructors have consistently been rated as knowledgeable, enthusiastic and a p p r o a c h a b l e ,” B e r g e r said. “Not only that, many instructors asked to teach courses again. They love the fact that everyone is motivated and interested in learning and improving.” To date, the courses have been offered at no cost to employers or employees. “With the continued valued support of the local

business community, we have been able to secure many training spaces at no charge,” Berger said. “This allowed us to stretch our budget dollars a little more

and continue to offer the courses for free—which is pretty valuable in this economic climate.” Berger is looking for employees (and employ-

ers) who wish to take part in the training. Fourth quarter classes are scheduled to begin as early as Sept. 27 and continue into midDecember.

◗ If you wish to take advantage of these free training courses, or would like more information, please contact Berger at 604-792-0025 x2434 or at michaelb@chill-

Hope to saddle up some funds

h e Ya r row c h a p t e r of the Back Country Horsemen Society of B.C. (BCHBC) is calling on Chilliwack-area residents to help them win a Pepsi Refresh grant for a horse camping area in E.C. Manning Park. The equestrian group, which promotes backcountry trail riding, hopes to secure one of four $5,000 grants to build a safe and secure overnight camping area for horseback riders which could also be used as a staging area for cross country skiing and snowshoeing in the winter. Their idea was one of 253 selected by Pepsi from across Canada this month, and online voters now have until Oct. 31 to vote for the proposal. If it ends up as one of the top four, it will earn $5,000. For the BCHBC, the funds would pay for a perimeter fence, ranch gate, graveled drive, signage, back-in sites and highlining areas, which they hope to have in place by 2011. The proposal promotes

He likes the diversity of the job: the policy development, the political intrigue and public debate. “This is a great career ... It never lets you sit on your laurels very long,” he said. His only complaint is that he doesn’t get to spend enough time with his family, which, as of August, expanded to include a 10th grandchild, a boy named Atticus Charles. “I think both names are

Broadway

It’s a long way to Chilliwack for Red Carpet Affair performer Lisa Howard BY CORNELIA NAYLOR cnaylor@chilliwacktimes.com

Submitted photo

Performer Lisa Howard hits the Chilliwack Cultural Centre stage Saturday, Sept. 25, with four other Broadway stars under the direction of Scott Coulter for an eclectic concert of hit Broadway songs.

hen Broadway performer Lisa Howard steps onto the Chilliwack Cultural Centre stage this weekend, she’ll be concentrating on the same thing she does when she steps onto a stage in New York City—remembering her lyrics. “There’s so many of them floating around in your head,” she said in an interview with the Times, “if you’re not 100 per cent focused, they can easily go bye bye. Then you’re in a state of panic.” It’s an understandable occupational hazard. Since catching the musical theatre bug in high school almost two decades ago and listening endlessly to records of musicals like Annie and the Sound of Music well before that, the Akron, Ohio native has learned scores of lyrics for concerts and musicals. For Saturday’s gala opening of the new cultural centre, she has added to the collection and will join four fellow Broadway performers for a diverse sampling of hit songs that have made it big in the Big Apple. “It’s a great eclectic mix of Broadway songs,” she said. “It’s a lot of solo numbers. We have group numbers. It’s basically the hit songs from shows that are currently on the boards.” Joining Howard are Jason Graae of A Grand Night For Singing, Falsettos, Snoopy, Do Black Patent Leather Shoes Really Reflect Up?, For-

ever Plaid, and Hello Muddah, Hello Fadduh; David Burnham of Wicked, The Light In The Piazza, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat; and Jessica Hendy of Cats, Aida, and Amour. Howard herself will perform classics like Send in the Clowns and Wishing You Were Somehow Here Again as well as bits of timeworn favourites from musicals like Westside Story and Hair for medley numbers. “I’m all over the map,” she said. “It’s a lot of fun, and it’s a lot of songs that I don’t necessarily get to sing.” Howard made her own Broadway debut five years ago with The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, starring as Rona Lisa Peretti, hostess and one-time champion of a county spelling bee—the role for which she is still best known. She also appeared in the Tony Award-winning Lincoln Center Theater revival of South Pacific, the musical comedy 9 to 5 and toured with the national company of Les Misérables. A graduate of the University of Cincinnati’s College Conservatory of Music, Howard says the thing she’s most proud of in her career as a stage performer so far is just sticking with it. “It’s not like being in the movies or being on a TV show,” she said, “You make decent money. It’s enough to survive in New York, but unless you’re a major star, it’s not anything more than that, really.” For now she said she’s still energized by the “rat race,” but thinks teaching might be in the cards if she ever tires of the uncertainty and hectic schedule that comes with being a Broardway performer. Another interesting twist might be a budding film career. Just this week she landed her first small movie role—as an Irish vampire in the next Twilight movie. ◗ The Red Carpet Affair Opening Gala for the Chilliwack Cultural Centre begins at 7 p.m. Tickets are $150. Call 604-391-7469 or e-mail boxoffice@chilliwackculturalcentre.ca.

here can you go to see a “sexy, kickass fiddle player” rocking out with a kilt-wearing, electric sitar-playing Korean flanked by two bouncing Bhangra percussionists and a vocalist who looks like he would be at home in a Bollywood music video? On Saturday, Oct. 9, you’ll find them at the Chilliwack Cultural Centre when Delhi 2 Dublin hits the stage as part of the Chilliwack Arts Council’s 2010-2011 Concert Series. Originally brought together in 2006 for a one-off, club night performance piece, the five members of the Vancouver-based band, Tarun Nayar, Sanjay Seran, Kytami, Andrew Kim and Ravi Binning, come from

different backgrounds and different musical influences. Together they bring a heady and energetic mash-up of Bhangra, Celtic, Dub Reggae and Electronica. “Not being able to fit into any specific genre allows the band to create whatever we like and not be judged for it; our audience expects nothing less,” states the band’s website. That mold-breaking approach is alive and well in their new genre-busting album, Planet Electric. They describe the album as “the buzz of See DELHI, Page 32

With neuromuscular disorders such as muscular dystrophy your muscles say “stop” but the mind says “go”. It takes four muscles to sit and watch TV and another 12 muscles to use the remote. But for those living with muscular dystrophy, these simple tasks can be daunting, if not impossible. Thanks to the support of Canada Safeway customers and employees during the month of August, people with neuromuscular disorders are using their 17 muscles to smile.

Aries March 21 - April 19: The weeks ahead feature relationships, opportunities and opposition, relocation, contracts, negotiations, litigation, agreements. In general, others will have the upper hand, so diplomacy/compromise is your protection, and eagerness to join is your opportunity. Your sexual side works overtime (right through December,but most strongly through late October) – excitement, attraction are certain, but don’t overstep social boundaries. True love could occur! Financial partnerships, agreements and investments that arise will grow to a November climax. Chase romance Saturday p.m. Taurus April 20-May 20: Work and health concerns ﬁll the weeks ahead. Your drudgery will be amply relieved, though, by an unusual run of exciting meetings, attractions and exotic temptations. One particularly intriguing person, adventure or opportunity will “stick with you” right into early 2011. Still, don’t neglect chores. Your energy and charisma get a nice boost Sunday/Monday – Sunday could trigger one of those exotic attractions! Chase money Tuesday (easy, stable) and Wednesday (minor glitches). Communications, paperwork, errands irk you Thursday, succeed with ease Friday. Home, kids bless Saturday. Gemini May 21-June 20: Lie low Sunday/Monday: contemplate, plan for the future, attend to duties. Be charitable, spiritual. Your energy and charisma surge back Tuesday/Wednesday – romance is a definite possibility, if you chase it. Three factors characterize romance until October 2012: one, your affections mingle deeply and successfully with sexual and financial currents; two, there might be an age difference. Three, romance will be slow to develop, perhaps because others doubt your loyalty. (Or find you too old or young). You’ll have to “prove” your love. Money caution Thursday, luck Friday.

Cancer June 21-July 22: This week and the next few, settle into family, property, security, retirement prospects, Mother Nature, soul, the basics of your life and business. Despite this accent on home and soul – or perhaps due to it – romance wanders into your life (more like strolls, for it seems pretty intent) – if not now, then soon. (The influence lasts to next January.) If you’re happily married, the same influence enlivens and brings success to your dealings with children and/or creative projects. Hopes, optimism, social delights early week. Retreat Tuesday/Wednesday. Your energy returns Thursday onward. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: The weeks ahead are generally easy, without “high stakes” pressure. But you’ll be busy – a flurry of travel, paperwork, details, errands and communications arrives. You might change homes, or renovate/decorate. This (or some other domestic adjustment) brings strife and affection – the strife lasts only through October, the affection through December. (Which hints at a splendid outcome.) You might sign legal papers involving property. Be ambitious Sunday/Monday. Social delights, wish fulfilment, light romance visit you midweek! Retreat, live cautiously Thursday/Friday. You shine Saturday! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Chase money, buy and sell, seek new clients or a pay raise during the next few weeks. Money isn’t easy for you to earn now through October 2012, but it can increase through creativity, art/beauty, judicious speculation/risk, pleasure fields such as vacation, recreation, camping, etc., and “indulging children” (e.g., toys, kids’ fashions). You might be busy chasing after or talking to a romantic/ sexual interest this autumn/winter – if you keep it light, you’ll succeed. Sunday/Monday are mellow, tickle your romantic antennae. Be ambitious midweek. Caution Thursday, joy Friday!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness reach a yearly peak now, Libra – charge ahead, insist on your way, start important new ventures or give a strong heave to ones that you need to complete. You’ll attract attention, but in a quiet way. Money will ﬂow swiftly to you through late October, but you’ll be tempted to spend carelessly, especially with a partner, or in an attempt to attract a person or opportunity – slow down! Wait until November/December, when you’ll spend more wisely, and luckily. Sexy stuff Sunday/Monday. Love, wisdom midweek. Don’t push higher-ups Thursday. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: You’re weary but your sexual, partnership and romantic magnetism rises. Is that a good thing? Who knows? A moderate approach is best: don’t overwork, and keep your intimate clinches honest. Don’t embrace anyone you suspect could become a burden in future. (You hardly need this advice, anyway.) You face heavy travel, paperwork or communication duties now to late 2012. Ah, well, grin and bear it. Sunday/Monday spark an attraction: show humour! Intimate temptations come Tuesday (good) and Wednesday (iffy to suppertime, good late night). Careful (legally, ethically) Thursday. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Entertainment, light romance (heavy stuff would burden you in future) popularity, optimism and happiness – these pay a month-long visit! You might be held back by a nagging health problem (related to sugar?). This health influence lasts to January 2011, so take care of it now. If nothing “shows up” Sunday/Monday or Thursday, you’re fine. Tackle chores early week. Exciting meetings or opportunities arise Tuesday/ Wednesday – say Yes – don’t insist that it be “your way.” Be careful with finances, health, intimacy, commitments Thursday (Friday’s lucky here). Gentle love, joy Saturday.

Sept. 26 - Oct. 2 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Be on your toes – ambitions rise, and so do pressures to perform. The accent is on prestige relations, dealings with higherups. Your social side grows active – a light romance might be brewing. Be alert, though – don’t let an attraction interfere with (or smudge) your ambitions or reputation. Sunday/Monday are romantic, creative. Tackle chores Tuesday/Wednesday. (Tuesday best – get an early start.) Be cautious in relationships Thursday – agree to nothing, but alienate no one. Friday offers success in the same zone. Saturday starts a weekend of mystery, desire, investigation. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: A gentle, philosophical, loving mood comes upon you for a few weeks. Intellectual, legal, educational, cultural, religious, fartravel and international involvements are favoured. If you started an “angry communication” in 2009, it can be solved now. You might be surprised to find that you’re loved – or not! Bosses, parents and other “high-ups” continue to treat you with impatience and affection: maintain humour and you’ll maintain the affection. (The impatience will fade before November; the affection lasts to 2011.) Home, family Sunday/ Monday. Romance midweek. Caution Thursday! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Mysteries and investigation, subconscious urges, lust, large finances, lifestyle changes, commitments and consequences fill the weeks ahead. Be careful with legal, cultural and ethical zones – your impatience to get things done could stir up costly antagonism. (Despite this, these areas, as well as international travel and higher education, yield rewards right into January.) Tackle errands, paperwork – and meet a sweet friend – Sunday/Monday. Be domestic, restful Tuesday/Wednesday. Romance and speculation call you Thursday, but need much caution – try these Friday instead. Chores Saturday. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
