Development
Thumbs down to condo complex A massive proposed development in Willoughby earned the ire of its neighbours. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com
It’s a big project – eight buildings, six storeys, more than 600 units – and it’s not popular with its neighbours on the Willoughby slope. Forwest Construction wants to create the new condo and townhouse project on a series of lots surrounding Jeffries Brook at the corner of 68th Avenue and 200th Street. But neighbours say it’s too big in contrast to the townhouses, singlefamily homes, and lowrise condos nearby. They also raised concerns about traffic on 201st Street and about local schools already stretched to capacity. “If this development goes through, we will be forced to move,” said Dan Keller, a neighbour of the area. Like many other neighbours, Keller said that when he moved he had been told the lots in that area would likely remain a greenspace, or possibly become a park. Laura Bennet was one of those

Crime
Car thief stymied by RCMP spike belt by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com
A suspected car thief was halted by a spike belt in downtown Langley Monday night, and police arrested the parole violator behind the wheel. The RCMP was first
tipped off by a driver who flagged down a passing officer, said Cpl. Holly Marks. The driver said he’d seen a suspicious pickup truck in the 21600 block of 64th Avenue. Officers kept an eye out for the truck, and found it on Logan Avenue in Langley City, Marks said. The officer turned on his lights and sirens, but the truck didn’t stop. Instead, it started driving wildly, jumping over cement traffic islands,
and sometimes driving on the wrong side of the road. The Mounties rolled out a spike belt near Glover Road and Duncan Way, and rather than blow out his tires, the truck driver screeched to a halt. Police arrested the driver with no further problems, Marks said. The man behind the wheel was a 46-year-old of no fixed address. He turned out to be wanted on a federal warrant for violating his parole, and
has been held in custody. The truck, a Ford F350 stolen from Chilliwack earlier the same day, turned out to be mostly undamaged despite the wild ride. Its door lock and steering column had been punched out. The suspect may face new charges of possession of stolen property, dangerous driving, and flight from police, Marks said. No details were released on the charges for which he was paroled.

Welcome back to the Cruise-In It seems almost as though all three local governments have been battling lately to see who can capture the most space on our front page – raging school board deficits capped by yesterday’s resignation of board chair Joan Bech; Township Mayor Rick Green misleading his council into a censure decision that must have been difficult, as councillors surely realized that, in the final analysis, none of this would look good for them or for Langley Township as a whole. Fortunately, Langley City’s dealings with the Langley Good Times Cruise-In committee helped us out on the “good news” side of the ledger. The decision to bring back the Cruise-In in 2011 will mean a lot of hard work for a relatively small group of people dedicated to both the community of Langley and the wider-spread community of car enthusiasts who have thronged to the event over the past years and missed it so sorely when it was cancelled for this September. It will also mean renewed influx of donations for worthy local charities, an economic boost for businesses in the area, and positive promotion of Langley – not just Langley City – throughout large parts of North America. Kudos to the committee, to Langley City officials, and to emergency personnel, led by the local RCMP, for not holding Friday night’s stupid and senseless “burn-out” event against the Cruise-In organizers, who have wisely revised activity schedules to help divorce the Langley Good Times Cruise-In from such juvenile antics that threatened to darken the event’s image in the past. Welcome back, Cruise-In. And welcome, too, to the common sense that prevailed in bringing it back. – B.G.

Mufford overpass
Better solutions save farms
Dear Editor, Obviously, Councillor Steve Ferguson [New road will benefit farms, Sept. 14 Letters, Langley Advance] did not, when he first voted yes, understand what is needed to resolve the problem at Mufford Crescent and Glover Road, and he still does not. Further, he has not listened to the public debate on the issue, and has not considered the common sense, positive solutions that have been proposed. The Mufford/Glover intersection needs to be fixed, but the people, goods, and services need to go to and from Mufford, Glover, and the Bypass, not extra distances through good farmland. The proposed new road will give added support to those wanting to convert the farmland between the bypass and Milner to industrial/commercial. Heavy rail traffic can be rerouted. There is legislation in place to allows that. Light rail up the Fraser Valley, using existing track, makes it more cost effective to
put the track on an overpass over the road. Our main problem is elected officials and people who like to make unnecessary work. Eric J. Bysouth, Langley
Progress trumps farmland
Dear Editor, I don’t know what the hullabaloo is. Farmland, shmarmland – this is progress. So the proposed overpass goes over a hayfield, and somehow the world is coming to an end. Typically, the farmer lives an idyllic lifestyle: hard work, happy children, food from the land, and church on Sundays, completely oblivious to the population around them growing from a historic 2,000 people to 200,000. I would be more sympathetic if the acres under consideration for development were filled with corn, tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, carrots, broccoli, etc. Clayton Randle, Langley [Note: Fuller versions of these letters are online at www.langleyadvance.com.]

Cruise-In
Sanctioned smoke sane solution
Dear Editor, Boys have been showing off their toys since the invention of the wheel. The Cruise-In committee, politicians, and RCMP will not be able to stop this behaviour. The Cruise-In committee and local bureaucrats have only to look to the small town of Cache Creek for the solution to their dilemma. In the early years, they had exactly the same “problem.” They now hold a smoke-show contest in the community hall parking lot in the centre of town. The area is fenced off, and the boys can “boil their hides” to their hearts’ content. The event is supervised and well organized. Tomfoolery is not tolerated on the town streets. Jim Winter, Brookswood
Behaviour unbelievable
Dear Editor, The burnout event on Industrial Avenue was disgusting. How dare they put spectators and their own lives in danger? They sure showed the politicians, the police, and the public how much the Cruise-In means to them. Your article [Burnouts draw crowd downtown, Sept. 14, Langley Advance] quotes a high school instructor who teaches high school kids how to race. One of the rules is, if a student is caught behaving like this, he or she would be removed from the
Animal welfare
Abandoned rabbits doomed Dear Editor, I’m sure whoever recently dropped off the domesticated rabbits near the 8th Avenue entrance to Campbell Valley Regional Park was convinced that the bunnies would somehow fend for themselves in this setting with its abundance of forage. Unfortunately, those poor, fluffy, tame buns are about to enter the food chain. Hopefully, the evidence of their demise won’t ruin anyone’s outing to this nature park. Sharon Boehm, Murrayville

program. This instructor, by attending, gives approval to such behaviour. Unbelievable. As a retired firefighter, I have seen too often the end results of such idiocy. They should hang their heads in shame. Pity the police officer who has to contact the next of kin, due to a death. Firefighters, paramedics, and hospital staff can be put to better use. The stupidity of holding that non-sanctioned and dangerous event has done far more damage than good in reviving the Cruise-In. Partially due to their efforts, a great event was ruined for 100,000 people, several charities lost donations, and local businesses lost customers. They must be proud of themselves. Best of luck to Langley Good Times Cruise-In President Mr. Riccardo Sestito in his and the committee’s efforts to re-establish the show for 2011. The vast majority of us appreciate it. Rob Jones-Cook, Langley
Plenty of stupid available
Dear Editor, Before conclusions are drawn, I want to make it clear that I did not participate in the burnouts, nor did I attend. While you’re on the topic of what constitutes “stupid” [Stupid is as stupid does, y’know, Sept. 14 Odd Thoughts, Langley Advance], “stupid” is anyone who believes photo radar saves lives and reduces speeding. Your column a few months back was factually baseless. Cops concur with my observations that the photo vans are useless in high-congestion areas, so the police could only put them in low-traffic areas for the camera system to actually catch anybody speeding. Field studies concluded that traffic slows down in vicinity of photo vans, and then resumes speed. I honestly thought at one time, long ago, that newspaper editors actually gathered facts, checked a story’s validity, and applied critical thinking skills. Everybody has an opinion – it’s sad that some are printed in newspapers and read by thousands. “Stupid” is anyone who believes in anthropogenic global warming. Consider yourself in good company, Mr. Groeneveld.

By-election must be held to decide new trustee position
…continued from page A1
“The timing could not be worse,” said LTA president Susan Fonseca. She added that teachers and others in education “will find it difficult to have confidence in the board’s commitment to these objectives now that the chair has abandoned her post.” Fonseca said the union would have liked her to stay on and persevere. Despite the difficult times, Bech is taking away some cherished lessons. Bech said working with the local aboriginal community has been eye opening. “When there was a disagreement on how to proceed, they stepped back and said ‘Let’s remember there’s a child in the middle’.” “Governments at every level could learn much from the way the aboriginal community does its work,” she commented. She is encouraging the remaining board members to follow the recommendations of the Auditor General and the community to not let any trustee delay the implementation of the recommendations. “They’ve got a road. They’ve got a map,” Bech said about the trustees. Bech told the Langley Advance that she’ll miss so much about this school district, particularly the students. “There are lots of wonderful people I’ve met throughout the system,” she added.
Langley is full of memories, Bech said. With her trustee position open, the district must hold a by-election. The School Act dictates a by-election must be held if a board position becomes vacant before the January of the year in which a general election is held (always in November). District communications manager Craig Spence said there is no date set yet for the by-election as the dis“The trict is going through timing the requirements of the School Act, such could as notifying various not be levels of government. As for Bech’s vacatworse.” ed chair position, Susan Fonseca there are no set rules for filling it. “The board will have to consider that matter and it will be up to them,” Spence explained. The school district must notify the Township of the need for a by-election and a chief electoral officer must be appointed within 30 days of notification. Then the election must be held within 80 days of the appointment of the chief electoral officer who oversees the election process. The last election for Township mayor and council as well as school trustees cost $90,000. This election cost varies between $50,000 and $75,000, depending on how many polling stations are used. The school district then reimburses the Township for the election’s cost.

Brookswood will be getting a new, large drug store, council decided. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com
A new look for a proposed Brookswood Shoppers Drug Mart helped secure it Township council’s stamp of approval Monday. The Township passed third reading of a bylaw to allow for the construction of an 18,500 square foot store close to the corner of 40th Avenue and 200th Street. The new store and two smaller buildings will replace the existing small strip mall that includes a Shoppers. Changes include a “green wall” system that will encourage vegetation to grow
up the side of the building. The overall look of the building has been changed in an attempt to make it fit in with existing Brookswood buildings. At a public hearing in March, speakers referred to it as a big box-type store, with Cathleen Vecchiato calling it “the WalMart of Brookswood.” Other neighbours worried about increased traffic on their nearby cul-desac, and the owner of a nearby commercial property also objected to the design. The majority of council found the changes to their liking, even though the square footage of commercial buildings on the site actually increased under the new plan. The Shoppers is the same size, but an additional 1,400 square foot building has been added to the west of the main site, said Township planner Ramin Seifi.
The councillors were not unanimous on their approval of the changes. “I’d have to say it’s awful large for downtown Brookswood,” said Councillor Bob Long. Coun. Kim Richter said she liked the look of the new design. “But I don’t think big box and Brookswood is a good match,” she said. One change was made before council allowed the new design to pass. The large Shoppers sign on the building’s west side will be reduced. “I think people will know it’s a Shoppers Drug Mart, they don’t need that big red sign blaring in their eye,” said Coun. Charlie Fox. The motion passed with Long, Richter, and Mayor Rick Green opposed. A fourth and final reading will be held at a future regular council meeting.

Const. Jillian Ewanyshyn and other local emergency responders will be raising money for cancer Friday and Saturday at Langley City’s Extreme Pita. one of the more than 20 riders has pledged to earn at least $5,000 for the Canadian Cancer Society, even before starting the tour. The money helps children with cancer. It is divided up to fund pediatric cancer research, to support children in treat-
ment and their families, and to pay for Camp Goodtimes, a very specialized summer camp for kids in or out of treatment. Last-minute fundraising and getting organized for the tour are taking up a lot of time for the riders, right now. Ewanyshyn is one of the team trainers, but she hasn’t spent as much time on her bike recently as she’d like. “Training takes a back seat to organizing, in the last weeks before tour,” she said. The team members will be spinning on their bikes between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and accepting donations anytime. Stevenson has pledged to match the first $250 in donations to the Cancer Society. • Matthew Claxton is a media member of the 2010 Cops for Cancer Tour de Valley team.
Former detective talks Internet
A former detective from the United Kingdom will be addressing a group of Langley business people later this month. The topic, however, has less to do with her 10 years as a police officer and more with her role as president of Toddington International Inc. Julie Clegg will be talking about the effective use of the Internet as a business research tool during the Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce’s next Business Breakfast Club. The first morning meeting of the fall is set for Wednesday, Sept. 29, at the abc Country Restaurant at 19219 56th Ave. (yes, a Langley chamber meeting at a Surrey business), beginning with registration at 6:45 a.m. and the speaker at 7 a.m. The meetings typically wrap up by 9 a.m., but many stick around to network afterwards or ask questions of the speaker. “Most people don’t know what they don’t know,” about finding information online, said Clegg, who some might recognize locally for her involvement on the board of the Ishtar Transition Housing Society or the Central Fraser Valley Search and Rescue Team. Folks tend to use only one search engine (Google), they typically use only two keywords, and they go no further than the top 10 results, she said. “This is fine, when looking only for general information. But when looking for the virtual needle in a haystack, highly inadequate,” she noted. Her presentation will show those in attendance some basic techniques for finding information effectively and in less time. She will discuss the importance of knowing what questions to ask, how to ask them, and where to ask. Clegg is a former detective with the West Yorkshire Police, and her frontline policing experience – believe it or not – is somewhat invaluable to her newer position with Toddington. To hear Clegg speak, attend this rather informal chamber breakfast. Pre-registration and pre-payment are required by calling the chamber at 604-530-6656 or emailing: events@ langleychamber.com. Admission is $20 for chamber members, and $25 for non-chamber members – not including breakfast. No tickets at the door.

Murrayville
Heritage area could blanket Five Corners A few residents voiced their displeasure with the new Murrayville heritage plan. by Matthew Claxton mclaxton@langleyadvance.com
Heritage lovers are fans, but a couple of Murrayville residents don’t like the new heritage conservation area proposed for their neighbourhood. Langley Township is considering placing a heritage bylaw over parts
of Murrayville, centred around the Five Corners district. If passed, it would put some restrictions on how residents in the area modify the exteriors of their homes in the future. It will also put guidelines in place for any new buildings in the area. The policy is modeled after a similar one that has been in place in Fort Langley since the mid-1990s, and is intended to preserve the area’s character. Gloria Doubleday and Fred Pepin, who both sit on the Township’s Heritage Advisory Committee, spoke
in favour of the plan. Five Corners hotel owner Wally Martin was dubious, saying it was forcing the owners of 91 homes to build homes the way the Township wants. “We find this offensive,” Martin said. He asked that the 91 owners of property in the area be allowed to vote on the plan. Rod Graham said he also didn’t want any future home he builds on his lot to have its appearance dictated by someone else’s idea of heritage.

Sculpture opens little red shed studio for tour
Morgan Fitzpatrick is one of 24 artists participating in a two-weekend art studio tour. by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com
M
organ Fitzpatrick was running around frantically this week attempting to finish a few giant pieces of art, while also cleaning up her 16-foot-square workshop. Despite her frantic tidying efforts, there was still a light film of fibreglass dust covering the floors, stud-exposed walls, and workbench of what Fitzpatrick dubs her little red shed. What was once her father’s renovation workshop in the family’s Fort Langley yard, has been transformed over the year into the a full-time art studio for the sculpture. Initially, she took over a corner of her father’s workshop. Slowly they reach to an agreement to share the space 50-50 while Fitzpatrick prepared to graduate from Walnut Grove Secondary. Now that Fitzpatrick, 26, has completed a fine arts diploma program at Capilano (then College), and a fine arts degree at the Nova Scotia College of Art Design (again now a university), she has since taken over all but a tiny corner of that so-called workshop. With no room in her tiny one-bedroom downtown Vancouver apartment, she’s relegated most of her artistic endeavours to the studio in Fort Langley, and once you see the size and scope of her sculptures, you can understand why the big city doesn’t offer the space or environment she needs. So now, between working full-time as a landscape foreman for Great Canadian Landscaping in North and West Vancouver, she boogies out to the village every second weekend to submerge herself in her art. But she’s been spending an inordinately large amount of time in the home, where she grew up, a lot more of late. That’s because she is one of dozens of artists preparing for the second annual Langley Artists’ Studio Tour running this weekend and next. Readying the studio for the upcoming tour, she pulled out several of her earlier

acrylic and mixed-medium paintings, and moved four life-sized carousel-style horses – symbolizing the horses ridden by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse – into the middle of her parent’s lawn. And this week, in between cleaning, she’s been moulding, bondoing, sanding, grinding, and painting a series of large-scale native flowers she hoped to complete for the show. It’s not going to happen, Fitzpatrick admitted, only part way through a pair of waist-high trilliums that she vowed will be painted and ready for Saturday. When she was first invited to return as part of the annual studio tours, Fitzpatrick declined. She didn’t have any new work. But the pressure to participate gave her motivation to finally start on a series of large-scale flowers, which she thinking about and she hoped would magnify the beauty of the real flowers. Obviously inspired by her work with plants, this art series focuses on perennials
– and in particular native plants she finds amazing. Her original goal was to finish nine flowers for the studio tour. Given time restraints, she cut that back to six, and now she expects to completed three pieces in time for the exhibit. But Fitzpatrick assured visitors that they’ll also be able to see several other pieces in progress, including monkshead, fox gloves, bleeding hearts, and a columbine. This garden she’s creating is what she calls an extension of her work. In her duties as a landscaper, she has a huge three-dimensional outdoor space she equates to a canvas that she has to make beautiful and that can change throughout the seasons. Asked what’s next, Fitzpatrick won’t say – whether she doesn’t know yet or doesn’t want to share, couldn’t be discerned. But like her horses and garden series, she expects to continue focusing on large-scale sculptures, which she admits are her fave. “I would love to see them in public space,
so it can constantly be seen through new eyes,” she told the Langley Advance. Fitzpatrick is one of 24 artists in 13 studios participating. The self-guided tours run Saturdays and Sundays, Sept. 18 and 19, and Sept. 25 and 26, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Details and maps are available online at www.langleyartstudiotour.ca. Last year was the first time for the tour, and weather didn’t work in its favour. Organizers Vivian Harder and Deborah Strong hope this year’s forecast is a little better. In addition to the studio tours, there are also 30-minute mini-workshops and demonstrations being offered at some studios. “Guests can learn artistic technique from some of the best artists in Langley for free,” Harder said. Also new this year is the inclusion of BridgeArt Studio, a group of artists who have special needs, who belongs to the Langley Association for Community Living, and who are excited about displaying their artwork.

S
ince Fort Langley’s the seat of B.C. history, it seemed appropriate to hold a weekend festival in the community, a first for a newly formed group for history buffs.
The Historical Mythological Fantasy Society (HMFS) started in the U.S. Its founders have moved to Abbotsford and are starting chapters in B.C. While similar to other historically based groups, the HMF allows the addition of historical fantasy with an emphasis on making a familyfriend organization. The focus is on ancient times to about the 1600s. To kick it off, they have organized the Gathering BC for Saturday at the Fort Langley Lions Hall and the Chief Sepass Theatre. Alexandra Halliday, one of the organizers, said Fort Langley was chosen because of its history and location. “Fort Langley is a nice middle point,” she said. Saturday’s historically themed multicultural festival features performers at the theatre and medieval style activities at the hall and its grounds. The price of admission comes with tokens that can be redeemed at activities. People can make a coat of arms or learn about healing herbs, try archery or make a tunic. The Fort Wine Co. is doing a wine tasting there and there will be several other merchants. Abbotsford air cadets will also be having a hot dog sale midday at the festival as a club fundraiser. The live entertainment includes such things as musicians, bellydancers, poets, Hawaiian dancers, singers and more. “We are using the local talent,” Halliday said. “We’ve tried to invite as many [performers] as possible.” People can dress of the era if they want. The event starts at 10 a.m. and runs to 10 p.m. for those attending the feast. Halliday said they have arranged a historical menu and the food will be organic. Tickets are $10 for the meal, and can be ordered by emailing through the website or purchased at the festival. People can also purchase a glass of wine but because this is a family event, no rowdiness or drunkenness will be tolerated. On Sept. 19 the group is hosting a launch event for the HMP Empire at the Lions hall. It is for people interested in joining the group that will be devoted to medieval history, arts, warfare and more. Entry will be by donation with the proceeds going to the HMP Empire. More information about the empire is at www.HMFEmpire.webs.com. Tickets are $8 adults, and $5 children, (five and younger get infree). More information and ticket ordering is available at www.thegatheringbc.webs.com. Organizers ask people to buy their tickets online in advance of the festival.

History lover pens second novel Doris Riedweg is holding a book launch at the seniors centre Saturday, followed by a signing at Coles Oct. 2.
by Roxanne Hooper rhooper@langleyadvance.com
A
Milner octogenarian is celebrating her milestone year with the release of a second, somewhat autobiographical novel this weekend. Doris Riedweg only released her first novel, Fury of the Wind, last year. And already, she’s preparing to release her second. Still Waters hits the street on Saturday, starting with a book launch at the Langley Seniors Resource Centre. While her first book draws on some of Riedweg’s experiences growing up on a farm in Saskatchewan, Still Waters novel captures some of her experiences as a nurse. “It is, perhaps, a little more autobiographical than I intended it to be,” Riedweg said. Although it is fictionalized, there is a lot of my story in it, and it will probably be recognizable to some of my classmates and other close friends.” This story tells of a character named Tyne Milligan, in her final months of nurses’ training in Calgary. She is looking forward to graduation and her eventual marriage to the man she loves – a doctor. But things go awry, and as the story unfolds Tyne must face conflict and loss.
“My motivation came from a good friend, Billie Askey, who is also a nurse, and whom I have known for 50 years. She asked me why I didn’t write a novel based on my adventures on the farm, or else based on my nursing experience. So, I started out to combine the two, but it turned out to be more about nursing than farming,” Riedweg told the Langley Advance. “Most of the story takes place in and around Calgary, and the Holy Cross Hospital, where Billie trained. So, it seemed only fitting to dedicate the book to her.” This may only be Riedweg’s second novel, but she’s no stranger to writing. Her articles and short stories have appeared in several major newspapers, as well as literary magazines. Riedweg was also editor and co-author of The Hospital on the Hill, A History of Langley Memorial Hospital, and author of Strawberry Shortcake, a history of Elliot School District in Saskatchewan. This new novel, like her last, was actually several years in the creation. And another is already in the works. “It needs a major rewrite, and an offer from a publisher, of course. But we’ll see what happens,” she said. ”I love writing fiction. It frees up my imagination, although I try to be as historically and geographically correct as possible,” Riedweg said. In addition to the Still Waters launch Saturday at the seniors centre, which runs 1 to 3 p.m., Riedweg has also been invited to do a signing at the Coles bookstore in Willowbrook Shopping Centre. That autographing session is set for Saturday, Oct. 2, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

The spreading roots of cedars, which are such a nuisance in most places, can benefit lawn bulbs and corms such as Cyclamen coum that go dormant in summer and need good drainage. It helps if the cedars are high-limbed, to admit some light. This cyclamen is too dwarf for lawn-mowing to remove leaves. Flowering pink or white in January, it goes dormant about May and survives drought and heavy lawn mowers all summer. Leaves re-emerge with fall rains.

t’s been four years since Langley-born ukulele virtuoso James Hill played a concert in his hometown. “That’s just too long,” said Hill, who’s back in town next weekend, for a concert at the Kwantlen Polytechnic University auditorium. Widely considered one of the world’s best ukulele players, Hill is known for his genredefying compositions and disregard for supposed limitations of his chosen instrument. “This summer has been my busiest summer ever. It was crazy, actually. The ukulele is becoming so popular all over the world that opportunities to travel are coming at me left, right and centre. It’s hard to say no to a gig in Australia, Hawaii, Korea, or California,” he shared with the Langley Advance. Being a professional ukulele player has allowed him to see the world and meet “so many wonderful people,” said Hill, who now resides in Nova Scotia. But all the travel gets tiring sometimes. “Those air miles really do take a toll on me after a while. But, hey, I’m not complaining; I think I have the best job in the world,” he said, excited to return to Langley. A former member of the Langley Ukulele Ensemble and alumnus of Langley Community Music School, Hill has released four acclaimed albums including True Love Don’t Weep, a Canadian Folk Music Award winner. This fall, he’s touring California, Ontario, and Hawaii. “But best of all, I have a chance to catch up with friends in Langley at the end of September,” he said. “I’ll be back home.” He’s coming for the Langley Ukulele workshop – a sold-out event (Sept. 24 and 25) being held at Belmont Elementary, where he’ll teach alongside some of his former teachers and mentors like Chalmers Doane, Peter Luongo, and Jamie Thomas. Then on Saturday, Sept. 25, he’s giving his first Langley concert in years, and he’s asked some of his friends to join him. On A Night Like This: James Hill and

of other top-notch improvisers to create a one-of-a-kind show not to be seen anywhere else in Canada, Hildebrandt explained. Dubbed Panic Squad & Friends, the show allows the team to entertain audiences with new games that have been workshopped off-stage and to include games and scenes not normally seen in regular shows. The added improvisers also allow for the opportunity to showcase local talent and enables Panic Squad to perform unique improv games that work well with a larger cast. At the helm of the team is Andrew Bright, a resident of Lynden, Wash. And for the Gallery 7 performance, he’ll be joined by Langley’s own Dave Swan, as well as Dann Warick, also of Lynden, and Cliff Prang of Abbotsford. Other improvisers will also demonstrate their comedic prowess. The 90-minute Panic Squad &

old on to your hats. The Panic Squad comedy improv team is back in town, and once again, they’ve brought some friends. Panic Squad, an internationally touring comedy improv team based out of the Pacific Northwest, is helping Gallery 7 Theatre kick off its 20th anniversary theatre season on Friday, Sept. 24
with an evening of zany fun friends, family, and even granny can enjoy. “We love having the Panic Squad open our season each year,” said Ken Hildebrandt, Gallery 7 Theatre’s artistic director. “They’re a great bunch of guys, they’re extremely dedicated and professional, and they put on one hilarious show. Last season’s show was very nearly sold-out.” The Panic Squad has one mission in mind: to make you laugh, hard. Proving that comedy can be clean and exceptional, Panic Squad will bring their fight against boredom and lameness to the stage. Normally the team performs with three players, but at Gallery 7 Theatre, they bring in a number

Learning improv
As an added bonus, beginning and veteran performers wishing to learn more about the unique art of improvisation can take a full-day workshop with Andrew Bright. The workshop is being offered Saturday, Sept. 25, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. “This unique workshop will explore the art of thinking fast on their feet,” Hildebrandt said. “This workshop is perfect also for the non-performer looking to develop greater confidence in public.” The workshop costs $65 and includes bottled water, a snack and a light lunch.

Bypass will be sizzling
L
angley is becoming know as the barbecue mecca, according to Angie Quaale, owner of Well Seasoned gourmet foods and organizer of the fifth annual BBQ on the Bypass coming to town this Sunday. More than 100 pitmasters and thousands of barbecue fans are expected to attend the Sept. 19 event – 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. – which is Greater Vancouver’s biggest barbecue event and home of the first-ever Great B.C. Bake Off – an amateur pie and tart baking competition. A record number of 30 teams from throughout the Pacific Northwest will compete at the Langley event in a southern style barbecue contest where meats in six categories are smoked over charcoal at low temperatures for up to 16 hours. Entries will then be rated by a panel of 50 judges certified by the Pacific Northwest BBQ Association. Entries will be rated based on their flavour, texture and appearance. The team with the highest overall points will be crowned the BBQ on the Bypass grand champion and will win up to $5,000 in cash prizes. The public is invited to watch, and organizers have incorporated a number of aspects for guests. More information at www.bbqonthebypass.com.

The free concerts are held Wednesday, from 12:15 to 1 p.m. in the auditorium of the Langley campus. “We feature excellent performers, but unfortunately not that many people are aware of these lunchtime concerts,” said music department chair Zdenek Skoumal. The first six concerts in the series always feature professional musicians. Last week kicked off the set with violinist Calvin Dyck and pianist Betty Suderman. This coming Wednesday, Sept. 22, will feature The Campbell Ryga Trio. “They’re a great jazz group. Campbell is a well-known, award-winning Canadian jazz sax player, who now lives in Cloverdale and teaches at Kwantlen. He has many fans in this area,” Skoumal said.

uccess of the Food and Friends lunch program in Walnut Grove has spawned three others just like it. Langley Meals on Wheels (MOW) rolled out a new lunch program for seniors in North Langley back in February, and the reaction has been so surprisingly positive that MOW executive director Dave Stark is expanding that concept – starting next week. With upwards of 20 to 25 people attending the bi-weekly lunches and offering positive feedback about the food and social benefits of the new initiative, expanding to other neighbourhoods and reaching out to more seniors was the obvious next step, Stark said. This month, he’s rolling out three similar programs in Aldergrove, Brookswood, and Langley City. It more than just a meal program offering an inexpensive ($3) lunch once a week, he said. “It’s a program for people aged 50plus and those who are nutritionally challenged, allowing them to nourish their bodies and souls through healthy food and companionship,” she said. “By getting seniors out, and together they develop relationships with others and the community through learning about programs and services at that particular centre or somewhere else,” Stark explained. “My greatest highlight, beyond the seniors, is how these all came to be without any new money. Relationships, in this case turned out to be partnerships with City, Township, local business, and seniors centre. All for the benefit of seniors,” he said. “We have to look at the way we do

things and at a new business model. Government funding will not always be there, and taxpayers can only withstand so much. This is an example of what is possible.” Choo Choos family restaurant will be the first to kick off the new Food and Friends program in another location. This one is being held in downtown Langley City restaurant, starting on Tuesday, Sept. 21, and running the first and third Tuesday of every month, thereafter. The lunch runs 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. and pre-registration is required by calling 604-514-2940. The existing Food and Friends runs the second and fourth Thursday of each month, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., at the Walnut Grove Community Centre, 8889 Walnut Grove Dr. The next date is Sept. 23, and pre-registration is required by calling 604-882-0408. The new program in Aldergrove, being offered at the Aldergrove Kinsmen Community Centre, will run the second and fourth Friday of each month, 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. starting on Sept. 24. Register by calling 604-856-2899.
Brookswood Seniors Centre is also going to be hosting a new Food and Friends on the first and third Tuesday of each month, starting Oct. 5. Registration at 604-530-4232. So where does this program go from here? Stark is looking at expanding the program further. “We’ve had a request for a seniors housing unit up in Walnut Grove. Many there can’t make it out, and want to see if we can help organize one at their clubhouse,” Stark said. Langley MOW has been going through a number of transitions lately. Late last month, the 30-year-old organization rolled out a new menu and meal delivery program with a switched of kitchens – moving from the Langley Lodge (which is currently undergoing expansion) to the new Salvation Army Gateway of Hope homeless shelter and outreach centre. The agency plans to continue to build its hot meal delivery program to shut-ins, but Stark has been tasked with expanding the mandate by developing new initiatives.

Mustangs enter para-athletics era Athletes ages nine and older with a physical disability will have an opportunity to compete in athletics. The Langley Mustangs are venturing into new athletic territory, starting this season. In partnership with BC Blind Sports, BC Athletics, Sportability (Cerebral Palsy), BC Wheelchair Sports, and Athletics Canada, the Mustangs are, for the first time, pioneering a para-athletics program within the fabric of its able-bodied club. All athletes with a physical disability are welcome to participate. Philosophically, the Mustangs’ para-athletics program will integrate athletes with a disability with able-bodied athletes, allowing them an opportunity to train and compete together. “Adaptations will be made based upon the athlete’s needs so para-athletes have the opportunity to both enjoy their track and field experience and excel to the best of their abilities,”

Mustangs president Brent Dolfo said. Over the past six years, Mustangs coaches have had experience in coaching and making adaptations for current Canadian national parateam member Braedon Dolfo, who is visually impaired. Dolfo competes for the club in sprints, jumps, and throws. At the elementary age level, the Mustangs will provide technical coaching and overall conditioning, rotating athletes through the major track and field disciplines – jumps, middle dis-
tance, throws, and sprints – over their two regular training days. Training sessions will be held Tuesdays and Thursdays at the McLeod Athletic Park track and field facility.
Practices begin Tuesday, March 15, 2011 and continue through to the Mustangs’ major meet June 17 to 19. Both junior and senior coaches will focus on skill development. Specialization will occur with the older athletes. At the elementary level, for paraathletes wishing to compete, they will be encouraged to choose, where appropriate, a run, jump, and throw event at the able-bodied meets they attend. All club sanctioned meets are in the Lower Mainland and hosted by various clubs. For those athletes who will compete in the B.C. Junior Development Championships, there will be additional practices through to mid-July. For high school-aged para-athletes, training begins in either this month or January, depending on the training group. The season runs through the B.C. club championships in mid-July. Typically, the training sessions will be four times per week varying from work on the track to conditioning and core strength development. It is expected that para-athletes at this level will be competing at meets around the Lower Mainland. Opportunities exist, for those who qualify, to be selected to attend Athletics Canada training camps and championship meets. For national or international level para-athletes, training takes place year round.
Langley Mustangs member Braedon Dolfo continues to soar in athletics and is a good bet to compete at the 2011 World Paralympic Track and Field Championships in New Zealand. Langley Advance files
Clinic designed for physically disabled The Sept. 25 event launches a unique program in Langley. Next weekend, the Langley Mustangs track and field club is offering a free clinic and information session to any person with a physical disability who is interested in participating in track and field. The Saturday, Sept. 25 clinic will run at McLeod Athletic Park (MAP) from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. This free clinic will kick-start a new para-athletics program scheduled to begin running regularly this track season at MAP. Longtime Canadian national Para-Athletic team member Dustin Walsh and his guide Steve Walters will be in attendance as well as Langley’s own Canadian para-national track team member Braedon Dolfo. Walsh, Walters, and Dolfo are all expected to be named to Canada’s team competing at the Paralympic World Track and Field
Championships in January 2011 in New Zealand. The Mustangs have initiated the development of a club-based para-athletics program. “This program is unique in its scope and intent. We are looking to establish a consistent and high quality training environment for athletes with physical disabilities,” said Langley Mustangs president Brent Dolfo. “In partnership with SportAbility, BC Blind Sports, BC Wheelchair Sports, Athletics Canada, and BC Athletics, our club will strive to create a sustainable paraathletics program for athletes with a physical disability in the Fraser Valley and beyond.” The Langley Mustangs call MAP their home facility. The Mustangs offer both high performance and recreational programs, and are made up of more than 100 athletes from elementary age to masters (35plus years).

Kodiaks’ offence strikes thrice late in win over Steelers by Troy Landreville
sports@langleyadvance.com
The Aldergrove Kodiaks saved their best for last Wednesday. Trailing the visiting Grandview Steelers 5-4 midway through the third period, the junior B Kodiaks saw their offence ignite
at the ideal time. The Kodiaks tallied the final three goals of the game to win 7-5 at Aldergrove Arena. The win improves the Kodiaks’ record to 2-1, tops in the Pacific International Junior Hockey League’s Harold Brittain Conference.
The Steelers led 4-3 after two periods of play. After Aldergrove’s Ryan Veillet tied the game 4-4 at the 4:02 mark of the third period, Grandview’s Curtis Rocchetti scored on a powerplay to put the visitors ahead by a goal 9:39 into the final frame.
Cue the comeback, started by Kodiak Mike Phillipson, who scored with 9:07 remaining in regulation time. The Kodiaks took their first lead of the game when Chad Veillet found the net with just under six minutes to go in the game.
The goal turned out to be the winner, as Chad Veillet sealed the win with an empty-netter with nine seconds remaining. Ryan Veillet and Chad Veillet led the Kodiaks with two goals each. Tyson Solotki, Thomas Hardy, and Phillipson each scored once for the Kodiaks.

Chilliwack teams ran the table against their North Langley hosts last weekend. The visiting Chilliwack Giants lived up to their name Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park. Teams representing the Chilliwack and North Langley Bears football associations clashed during the Bears’ home opener at MAP. On a day that began sunny and ended in rain, the four North Langley Bears squads recovered from shaky starts to put in strong efforts in the second half of their games. Atom Division The Giants built a 26-point halftime lead and went on to down the Bears 32-12. In the first quarter the Bears’ defence slowed the Giants down with tackles from Brandon Brynjolfson, Matthew Gattinger, Callum Middleton, and Nick Triemstra. On offence, Nickolus Tanner returned a kick 20 yards, while Keaton Althuizen and Joshua Williams combined for two runs, gaining 15 yards, but the Bears couldn’t score. The Giants led 12-0 after the first quarter. Led by Brynjolfson, Jake Schmidt, and Tavish Mckinnon the North Langley defence tried to hold off the Giants, who carried a 26-0 lead into the half. The Bears’ offence started the third quarter with Williams handing the ball off twice to Marcus Stang who gained yards, but not enough for a first down. On third down Tanner and Trevor Elam made good blocks, creating a hole for Brynjolfson to run through for a 40-yard touchdown. The Chilliwack offence tried to answer back but was stymied by tackles from Brynjolfson and Teague Higgins. A tackle by Middleton then stopped the Giants at the Bears’ one-yard line. On the next play, on third down and a yard to go, Jake Schmidt made a key tackle to stop the Giants from scoring. In the fourth quarter, with the visiting Giants leading 26-6, Brynjolfson provided a spectacular run on third down, with the Bears on their own 30-yard line. Brynjolfson burst through a hole created by Tanner and Matthew Moore before running 80 yards for a touchdown, narrowing the Bears’ deficit to 26-12. Chilliwack answered with its final touchdown on a 50yard play to round out the game’s scoring. Peewee Despite a strong effort on both sides of the ball, the Bears fell 20-0 to the Giants. The Bears held the visitors scoreless in the first quarter. Throughout the game, Bears defenders worked hard to contain Chilliwack’s offence, with strong tackling by Zander Bailey, Conner Parker, Jacob Price, Dawson Boychuk, Ryan Barthelson, and Andy Hanlen. After Chilliwack scored early in the second quarter, the Giants recovered the ensuing kickoff, which led to another touchdown by the visitors. After that things started looking up for the Bears thanks to some strong running by Bailey, a 20-yard run by Charlie May, and a 20-yard pass from Brett Christensen to Jordan Nelson, who caught the ball on the 30-yard line. The Bears then made their way to the 10-yard line. North Langley’s offence could go no further before the first half ended. The Bears held the Giants scoreless in the third quarter while continuing to pile up yards, powered by the running of Bailey and Yun-Jae Boo. But just as the Bears approached the end zone, Chilliwack took over on an intercepted pass. The turnover gave the Giants’ offence an opportunity to score another touchdown. The Bears answered back with a pass to Cooper Lynch, followed up by a 30-yard run by Boo to the Giants’ 10yard line. A run by Bailey brought the Bears to within five yards of the goal line, but on the next play, the Bears fumbled, so for a third time in the game, North Langley failed to score when nearing the end zone. Meanwhile, the Giants added to their lead to win by a 20-point margin. Junior Bantam The Giants jumped out to a 12-0, first quarter lead and went on to win 31-18. Early in the second quarter, strong running by Won-Jae Boo and Brandon Sang brought the Bears to Chilliwack’s one-yard line. continued on page A43…

The North Langley bantam Bears’ offence lined up for their next play versus the Chilliwack Giants Saturday at McLeod Athletic Park. On a drive that started on the Bears’ 30-yard line, David Fredo completed a pass to Zavier Zylenko and then Fredo took the ball himself for a first down at the Bears’ 45 yard line. Fredo then threw the ball 20 yards to Michael Chan who scampered 45 more yards to pay dirt. The Bears failed to score any more points, but had possession for most of the rest of the game, with Bears’ tacklers Braeden Pritchard, Adrian Clements, Alec Robertson, Kim, and Luke Wildman taming the Giants’ offence. Fredo and Kim ran the ball well, and Chan made several more receptions. Fredo appeared to score a touchdown at one point but the play was called back on a penalty.

Giants three yards from the goal line on a tackle by Mook Kim. However, the Giants soon came back and scored a touchdown, and quickly scored a field goal and then a touchdown to make the score 17-0. Despite a good return by Joseph Brake on the kickoff, the Bears could not make a first down and the Giants took over again, scoring a touchdown to pad their lead to 24-0 at the half. The second half began dismally for the Bears, with a touchdown by Chilliwack on an interception return. This marked a turning point in the game, with the Bears stepping up their play on both defence and offence.

…continued from page A42 Mackenzie Oram then scored on a quarterback keeper to narrow Chilliwack’s lead to 12-6. Chilliwack answered with another touchdown and conversion to move ahead 19-6. North Langley scored again on a 50-yard run by Boo to cut into the Giants’ lead. Despite determined pursuit and tackles by North Langley’s Brenden Haddow, Michael Svetlikov, and Quin Voth, Chilliwack runners ran up the score to 31-12. Still, the Bears had one more spectacular scoring play in their arsenal as Juan Paez picked off a Chilliwack pass close to the goal line and ran the ball the length of the field for a 100-yard touchdown play, out-running several Giants in the process. Bantam Bears The bantam Bears found themselves down by 31 points at one point of the third quarter before finding their rhythm in a 31-6 loss to the Giants. The Bears marched the ball 50 yards downfield to start the game, but fumbled on the Chilliwack 40-yard line. Late in the first quarter, the Bears stopped the

Don’t like hockey? Why not consider volunteering for the Langley Chiefs junior A hockey club then? It’s not as odd as it may seem. While many of the volunteers help out the club because they are hockey fans (and volunteering allows them to see the most elite level of hockey available locally), volunteer coordinator Rick Taron said the organization welcomes anyone who would like to volunteer. In fact, non-hockey fans would be great for positions that don’t allow volunteers to see the game but still allow them to contribute. Those tasks include ticket taking, ushering, program sales, souvenir sales, first aid, phone work, administrative help, and even helping on the ice during intermissions. Taron said what he enjoys about volunteering is the opportunity to get to know other people in the community on a personal basis. Coordinating the Chiefs volunteers is something Taron does in his free time. Taron handles franchise services at Sutton Realty and shares ownership in a couple of businesses. He started out like most hockey volunteers, as a billet. It was for the former Langley Thunder junior squad, even billeting Ivan Huml, who was drafted by the Boston Bruins. Then about eight years ago, Taron went from zero to 60 in one simple “yes” in terms of hockey volunteering.

Taron was asked to fill in for a timekeeper who walked out on a game. He started right away as the volunteer coordinator. “I’ve done everything, literally everything,” Taron said. “Once I did the playby-play in Victoria.” It’s that ability to try many different positions that he and other volunteers enjoy. Sometimes people bring special skills to the table and sports groups will have them do particular jobs, such as scorekeeping or announcing. The club could use more people with scorekeep“It’s kind ing or clock experience, he of fun to be said. involved But other in the volunteers are able to move community.” to whatever Rick Taron spot needs to be filled, whether it’s taking tickets, being an usher, sales of souvenirs or programs, or more. Taron noted that the club has also been helped by young people who in return for volunteering, can get a resume boost and positive reference for a job well done. Taron said his father taught him to contribute to his community. To date, Taron has donated blood more than 100 times, in addition to having billeted players, and coached sports. “It’s kind of fun to be involved in the community,” he said. ••• Ideally the Chiefs would like about 40 people helping out per game which means having a roster at least a couple times larger than that since not every volunteer can make every game. Volunteers are asked to arrive 90 minutes before game time for a meeting. To contact the club, call 604-882-8800.

Blue-collar Broncos topple WRSS Titans
Save 20% per game with Season Tickets.
Langley’s strong running game in sloppy conditions powered the atom-aged squad to victory. A “Mud Bowl” went the way of the Langley Broncos atom football team Sunday at South Surrey Athletic Park. The Broncos defeated the host WRSS Titans 40-6, with both teams playing in conditions conducive to an oldfashioned game of mud-ball. In the muck, the Broncos hunkered down and focused on their game, powered by strong running plays from Russell Gilroy, AJ Austin, and Jack Laurin for touchdowns, to go along with great blocking from Ben Charbonneau and Quin Van Muyen. Gilroy made a highlight-reel worthy play late in the fourth quarter with an 80-yard touchdown run, only to have it called back to the Titans’ two-yard line because of an illegal block from behind. The Broncos’ defence managed to hold the Titans’ offence to six points throughout the game. Nico Gerussi set the tone for the defence with a textbook tackle on the first play. Nicholas Murray, Aiden Simms, Jason Dombrowski, and Tysen Tombe starred on the defensive side of the ball for the Broncos. The Broncos head southwest to Cloverdale for a Week Three matchup with the host Tigers this Sunday. Langley Mustangs The Mustangs improved their record to 2-0 with a convincing 44-0 victory over the Westside Warriors in bantam action Sunday at Carnarvon Park in Vancouver. Langley opened the scoring on its first possession, with a 21-yard Cory McMurchy field goal that put the Mustangs ahead 3-0 early in the first quarter. That score held until the early part of the second quarter when Joseph Carter scampered 24 yards for his first touchdown of the season to increase the Mustangs’ lead to 10-0. Matt Bilmer then tacked on touchdown runs of one and 14 yards before the end of the end of the half, and Langley went into the break holding a commanding 240 advantage. With Langley in control, the second half started with a number of Mustang starters resting on the bench. However, there was no let down on the field. Set up by a 41-yard run by Cali Martinez to get the ball deep into Westside territory, Bilmer powered his way into the end zone from two yards out for his third touchdown of the game, to increase Langley’s lead to 31-0 at the end of the third quarter. Dallas Korfman rounded out the scoring for Langley on his only two carries of the game, converting runs of 19 and nine yards into major scores in the fourth quarter. Even with all of the explosive offensive output, this game was truly about the defence. Langley held Westside to only two first downs, and did not allow the Warriors past midfield the whole game. Leading the way for the Mustangs’ defence was Bilmer, Jason Geisbrecht, and Justin Brown, who each recorded four tackles on the day, and Dylan Twells who recorded three tackles and a fumble recovery. Chris Schwartz also scooped up a Westside fumble for his fourth turnover of the season. Other Mustangs chipping in with timely tackles were Tyler Pauls and Eric Brown. With the shutout, the Mustangs defence has only surrendered one point thus far this season. The Mustangs will look to make it three straight wins to start the season this Sunday afternoon, when they travel to Vancouver Island to take on the 1-1 Cowichan Bulldogs.

A PARTIAL DENTURE IS ESSENTIAL A removable partial denture is a dental appliance that replaces single or multiple missing teeth. It can be attached to teeth with clasps or it can be attached to teeth with crowns and precision attachments. Partial dentures can have a metal framework, acrylic resin base or they can be made with flexible resin with invisible clasps.
A partial denture that fills in the space created by missing teeth is essential for many reasons. It can help you to chew food properly, improve speech, give you lip and cheek support and
A partial is vital to restore the mouth to its original state.
prevent your remaining teeth from changing position by drifting into the surrounding spaces.
Individuals who currently wear a full upper denture and are missing some lower natural teeth would have great success using a lower partial denture. Upper dentures that are not supported by lower teeth can cause a host of problems. For these individuals, this may result in a poor fitting upper denture causing an increase in bone loss, tissue growth and ‘sore spots’. A correctly fitting denture results when the biting and chewing surfaces work together in perfect balance.
The Denturists at Brookswood Denture Clinic will work in co-ordination with your dentist to make sure you receive the best possible dental care. If you do not have a dentist, we would be happy to refer you to one in your area.

Cancer June 21-July 22: The fluff exits, the serious arrives. Sunday/Monday you meet mysteries and financial considerations– and possible intimacy, sex, commitment to a lifestyle with someone compatible. Monday eve to Wednesday brings dilemmas about love, ethics and the law. Tuesday features confrontation, intriguing meetings, attraction or dispute; Wednesday brings bonding, rebirth. Yes, it could be love –or arch-enmity! You enter a month of children, home, security, food and soul Wednesday night. Thursday to Saturday can brew competing interests, cause deep undercurrents in these same zones (kids, home, etc.). Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Domestic friction grows to late October. Remember the benefits of a light touch! Also to late October, a legal, international, higher education, religious, publishing or similar involvement can end. (It might have already begun to cease last week.) This is neither good nor bad, just a natural end, so you can begin anew somewhere/somehow else. The month ahead is NOT a good time to begin a legal (or love) affair, to wed, nor to move into a new home. Careful with sex, money Tuesday, with paperwork, travel, and communications Thursday onward. Sexy attraction (and investment luck) Wednesday! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Monetary and sensual urges grow through late October – you’ll feel restless about these, want to travel, talk, exchange paperwork or emails. This is more curiosity than consequence – you don’t have to commit yourself irrevocably to person or a project, purchase or investment. (Though you might. If you haven’t by December, you won’t.) Life is changing rapidly, but these are late-stage changes, so are weak or without a big future. The ones to build on will appear (or re-appear) in 2011. It’s wise to wait! Separations and meetings, Tuesday. Knitting together, “birth,” Wednesday.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: Work, drudgery and intensified health concerns end mid-week. (You’ll still feel a bit down, overburdened, Monday to Wednesday.) You face a month of fresh opportunities, new horizons and exciting meetings – and challenges, opposition, possible refusals. To succeed, be diplomatic, flexible, seek to join, accent other’s desires, seek permission. (You hate to do that last thing; but others hold the power now.) The extremes occur Monday to Wednesday, when great opportunities and great obstacles arise. Join/bond; if you fight, then refusal comes Thursday, and a challenge, a test, Saturday. Taurus April 20-May 20: September’s pleasure, romance, risk and creativity yield mid-week to a month of practical interests: jobs, health, machinery, schedules, etc. Think ahead Sunday, to career prospects, potential meetings with higher-ups. Fill out an application or “design” a future meeting. Pleasure still calls Monday afternoon to Wednesday eve – it’s social, flirty, entertaining. Your hopes and happiness are high! (And you’ll meet some unusual people.) Buckle down to chores, duties Thursday onward.You’ll see how giant the task is! Be quiet, contemplative. You’ll have enough energy, as Saturday night proves. Gemini May 21-June 20: September featured seclusion, domesticity, tiredness and re-examination of your basic direction in life. But midweek starts a month of romance (a co-worker?) pleasure, creative urges, risk and reward – you’ll ride a winning streak! You began to doubt your plans, hopes in recent weeks: soon you’ll see that some hopes were justified! Tackle career demands Monday to Wednesday: obstacles and opportunities mingle, might result in a career rebirth. Employment’s lucky to January. Thursday casts love in a sober light, yet raises your hopes: Friday, too. Deep sexual, financial changes brew.

Sept. 19 - Sept. 25
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: A month of weariness, burdens, seclusion (and delays) ends Wednesday night. The weeks ahead bring increased energy, charisma and effectiveness. You’ll have a winner’s timing! (First timing hint: start new and/or important projects Sept. 26 p.m. onward, not immediately.) This week tests your mettle. Tuesday brings work/ health dilemmas; Wednesday brings the “birth of the new” in these. Others oppose you (almost on principle – warped principle?) Thursday to Saturday – be sober, steady, diplomatic, firm. Money “swells” to late October: steer it to you, not from you. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Wednesday begins a month of quietude, contemplation, planning, government contacts, charitable actions and associations. Your energy levels decline. Take “power naps.” Despite an atmosphere of rest and recuperation, your reserves will be tapped, perhaps strained, by larger work demands, and heightened romantic/sexual charisma. The “love magnetism” lasts into January 2011 – a major affair lures singles! (Perhaps a burdensome one if it starts before November.) Your duties change this week. Embrace a creative/romantic “rebirth” Tuesday/ Wednesday. A lucky meeting surprises you! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Pressures will ease soon. Wednesday starts a month of entertainment, social delights, flirtation and light romance, optimism and plans for your future. Over the past six weeks, you’ve been intrigued by a sense that wishes were or would come true – now the “reality” comes – and it’s a good one! However, your life plans, goals and wishes are changing deeply, mostly due to money factors. This is clear Thursday to Saturday. (If it isn’t clear, examine clues.) Earlier, Monday to Wednesday accent security, family: differing views are an opportunity to grow new common ground.
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Two big things start now. One is quite usual, a month of ambition, pressure, career and prestige involvements. All these are undergoing a sea change now to 2024, as Thursday to Saturday will show. The other big thing is quite unusual in its duration: an upsurge in social joys, a mild but sweet upswing in popularity and optimism into January 2011. It could trigger sweet romance! You can use this social upswing to aid your career (schmooze with VIPs, etc.). Now through October a wish can come true about re-establishing home or property. Contact people Wednesday. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Midweek, you move from mystery to a month of enlightenment, from research to broadcasting what you’ve learned. (Broadcasting = writing the term paper, giving advice, discussions, media appearances, etc.) Now through October, higher-ups, parents and VIPs will be temperamental, impatient (mostly due to work pressures) – step lightly, be diplomatic, smile – a promotion looms! The weeks ahead feature love, understanding, far travel, legal matters, higher education, publishing, a philosophical outlook. All these are changing “at base,” as late week shows. Start a money project Wednesday. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Open dealings become more private, hidden. Overt attraction moves toward intimacy. Negotiations move toward funding. Whatever was an opportunity in the last few weeks now demands commitment and serious action. Life in general takes a deep turn, into mystery, revelation, subconscious urges, sexual desires, investments and debt, change and consequence. Avoid legal involvements, lawsuits now to Oct. 28. Legal matters will also reward you, a bit in October but strongly November/December. Your charisma, energy surge Monday-Wednesday – re-tackle an ambitious administrative project. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
