FHA region is tops in complaints BY JENNIFER MOREAU REPORTER jmoreau@royalcityrecord.com
The Fraser Health Authority managed to garner the most complaints in a newly released government report on patient care. In all, there were 5,824 complaints from patients across B.C. in 2009/10, with 2,157 of those in the Fraser Health region. “As B.C.’s largest and fastest growing region, ... Fraser Health received about 37 per cent of care quality complaints to local care quality offices. So, that’s pretty close in mind to our share of the population,” said spokesperson Roy Thorpe. Fraser Health’s top three areas of concern were all related to acute care. Most of the complaints (617) were about attitude and conduct. The second-highest area of concern was deficiencies care, garnering 278 complaints. Lack of information and clarity was the third area of most concern, with 164 complaints. Fraser Health is the largest of B.C.’s six health authorities, serving people from Burnaby to Boston Bar. With 1.6 million people in the Fraser Health region, the complaints work out to 1.37 per 1,000 patients. That leaves Fraser Health in second place for the highest number of complaints per capita. The Vancouver Island Health Authority led at 2.16 complains per 1,000 people. According to Thorpe, the high numbers don’t necessarily mean poor treatment. “We have a very well-established and aggressive complaints review process in Fraser Health,” Thorpe said. Staff encourages people to take their concerns to the patient care quality office, and the fact patients know they have a place to lodge a complaints helps increase the numbers. “We’re actively working to make it accessible, we’re actively working to encourage any patient to document those concerns,” Thorpe said. “We’re happy the patients are taking their concerns to the office, because unless we know what patients’ concerns are, we can’t work towards improvement.” Communication was a recurring theme, so Thorpe said Fraser Health ◗Complaints Page 4

Old technology: Rob McCullough, curator of the New Westminster Museum and Archives, is excited about the new technology that will help the Royal City’s history come alive for visitors.
New look for some old stuff Museum gallery gets a facelift as part of a test run BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com
Work that will soon get underway at the New Westminster Museum and Archives will be a bit of a test run for its eventual relocation into the city’s multi-use civic centre. Colin Stevens, the city’s manager of museum and archives, said the museum’s gallery will be redone this fall. He said the facelift to the existing displays in the gallery will be a dress rehearsal for planning and opening of a new gallery in the future multiuse civic centre. “One thing we have noticed about the gallery is we can do a better job of telling our city’s story,” said assistant curator Rob McCullough. “We are trying to make the space a little more friendly for people.” Starting in the fall, the museum’s gallery will be revamped. Technology such as videos and panel TVs will also be incorporated so the museum is better able to tell New Westminster’s story. McCullough said one of the goals is to create a place that’s more hands-on and interactive for children and adults alike.
Museum staff consulted with the community about its wishes for the museum and received 150 and 200 suggestions as part of that consultation process – suggestions that will help guide how the museum tells the city’s story. A project to catalogue items in the New Westminster Museum and Archives collections has uncovered some items that had gone unnoticed. That process will also help shape some of the gallery’s stories in the future. “We have a stone point that is over 7,000 years old,” McCullough said. “We are looking at dates older than the pyramids. All of these things come out.” A chronological timeline is one way of telling the city’s story, but modules that can go more in depth on certain topics is another way. First peoples, sports and industry are among the topics being explored for modules at the New Westminster Museum and Archives. “We are still working on the modules,” McCullough said. “Right now we are in the planning phase.” In addition to the chronological story of the city and modules that delve deeper into some topics, temporary gallery or exhibits are offered at the museum. The new galleries will be built from
October to December, and are slated to open in January 2011. “Summer is our busiest season,” McCullough said about current offerings. “We extend our hours.” The museum is open from 12 to 5 p.m. in the summer. Recent visitors have included people from as far away as Israel and England. McCullough encourages people to provide input about what they’d like to see in the museum’s gallery because that enables staff to tells stories that people want to hear. While planning is underway for the new gallery displays, the city is also hard at work on plans for the future multi-use civic facility that will include a new home for the New Westminster Museum and Archives. It will allow the museum and archives to centralize its collections in one building. “It will all be in one place,” Stevens said of collections located at various spots. “It will be much easier to access.” Irving House will remain as is and operate as a satellite location. A building at the rear of Irving House that houses the archives, which has been deemed not to be seismically sound, would eventually be demolished. ◗Museum Page 4

Out of Fraser Health’s 2,157 complaints only 12 reviews were completed at the patient care quality board stage. “With the vast majority of complaints, over 99 per cent were resolved at the health authority level,” Thorpe said, adding the patients were satisfied.

According to Stevens, the area would be landscaped in a way that suits the house. He noted that heritage gardens are a big tourist draw. “You would not only visit a lovely house, but see the grounds,” he said. While the outside of Irving House has been restored, an interior renovation is also in the works. The 1950s carpeting and wall-

Department apologized for not catching Pickton sooner. We can now appreciate that he was probably aware of all the information that was about to surface – and that it would not put the police or prosecutors in a good light. But, it is also clear that the VPD can only share some of the blame for letting a monster continue to kill innocent women. Where are the apologies from prosecutors or other police jurisdictions? There are understandable cries for a public inquiry into the whole mess. But
will this reveal anything we don’t already know? Will an inquiry result in changes to a system that is, for the most part, merely reflecting society’s view of these women? Perhaps an inquiry will reveal individuals in the policing and judicial system, who, through neglect or indifference, botched up the case. But we believe that the problem lies deeper than missed evidence – it resides in a society that still views some people as more valuable than others.

Pride was his problem Dear Editor:
Re: When faith fails: A matter of pride, The Record, Aug. 4. I read with some sadness your cover concerning Tory Inglis. I was particularly disappointed that you were not able to obtain pastor Timothy Bruneau’s comments before you went to press. I very much hope you will run his comments on the front page of one of your future editions. In many ways I can sympathize with Tory. Several years ago, while going through the final stages of a difficult divorce and starting to consider dating again, I was shocked when my church asked me to step back from involvement in various visible church activities. At the time, I took offense to the church taking the position that they had the right to tell me how
to live my life. Among other things, it offended my pride. Ironic, that “pride” is considered by many Christians to be the original sin that separated mankind from God. It took several months and much literal soul searching for me to realize that my problem wasn’t with the church, it was with God. God was asking for my 100 per cent commitment, and I was only giving Him 25 per cent or maybe 15 per cent. I wanted what I wanted, and what I was doing, and how I was going about it, was causing damage to my relationship with God and with those around me. So long as my pride got in the way, it wasn’t going to get resolved. Remember, the golden commandment is not to treat others as you would want to be treated. Rather, it’s to love God with all your heart, soul, mind and

To Tory, I apologize if you’ve felt attacked, abandoned or misunderstood by the church. Join the club. But I’ll bet you’ve never been attacked, abandoned or misunderstood by Jesus Christ. Seek to make Him number 1 in your life and watch other things drop into place. Remember, it’s not about pride, it’s about faith. Peter Anderson, New Westminster
Church welcomes family Dear Editor:
Re: When Faith Fails: A Matter of Pride, The Record, Aug. 4. Tory Inglis’ courage in being honest and open with her church about her sexuality is to be commended. As a gay minister, I am aware of the struggles that young gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people face in trying to forge an authentic spiritual path. It is heartbreaking when that journey is made more difficult by faith communities, which should be there to nurture and enable the journey. Tory and her family should know that there are Christian communities within New Westminster which affirm that her sexual identity is a gift of God. I encourage them to seek a community that will embrace them and encourage them. Rev. Neil Fernyhough, St. Barnabas Anglican Church
Hope for change in church
Dear Editor:
It is unfortunate what Tory Inglis experienced from her church and minister. Contrary to the judgment against her, she is in my view a positive role model for youth, as one who has the courage to be who she is and who God created her to be.
When some church folks and ministers take a very few passages from the Bible out of context and use them against others, it is offensive to our human experience and intelligence, offensive to the Bible itself and to the living word of God. Your fine editorial in the same issue alludes to the struggles and differences in the churches currently. But many of our denominations are evolving. Though there certainly are differences in my Lutheran denomination, two things give me hope. Our B.C. Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Canada at its 2008 convention passed a motion stating: “The B.C. Synod in convention affirms that people of all sexual orientations and gender identities share the worth that comes from being persons created by God and are welcomed into the full life of the synod, in accordance with its constitution, bylaws and policies.” And more recently, in an article in The New York Times on July 25, by Laurie Goodstein, the headline states in reference to our sister denomination, the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America: “Lutherans offer warm welcome to gay pastors”. What happened to Tory leaves us cold, but this headline warms the heart. Rev. Tim Dutcher-Walls, Faith Lutheran Church
Praise for pride volunteer
Dear Editor:
Your front-page story on Tory Inglis is a most welcome account of a young person who understands the pursuit of social justice and the importance of upholding Canadian values. As a 68-year-old whose work requires extensive world travel, I have been pleased with the positive recognition that our country has received for legalizing gay marriage. To see a young person with the strength of her convictions, as demonstrated by Tory, gives me hope that the world may one day be free of the fundamentalists – of all faiths – who would use religion to suppress joyful growth. Alan Haig-Brown, New Westminster

If we tried to switch straight to that system, our entire society would crash and burn in short order. But aside from the mealymouthed international declarations that we should cut our carbon usage, governments are doing nothing to move us towards the more stable world.

Remember the parable about the ant and the grasshopper? How about six to eight billion grasshoppers, and no ants to mooch off? That’s where we’re heading sometime in the next few years.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
R. McCarthy, New Westminster
Editor’s note: The Record did speak with Rev. Bruneau, and Rev. Bruneau wanted to meet with the reporter and another member of his congregation and have a face-to-face discussion. This was not possible given the time frame. The reporter and Rev. Bruneau did talk briefly about the matter, but the conversation was off the record because Rev. Bruneau explicitly said he would only do an interview with the reporter and the church member. The Record regrets that Rev. Bruneau’s request could
Praise for local reverend Dear Editor:
I’d like to commend Rev. Bruneau for speaking to Tory about her choices. It’s refreshing to hear about a minister that is brave enough to speak up about something that’s wrong. I noticed in the article that Tory and her mother gave no Biblical reasons for leaving the church but based it entirely on “feelings.” Rev. Bruneau did his duty out of love for his church member by pointing out her sin and would have been remiss if he had not.

Re: When Faith Fails: A Matter of Pride, The Record, Aug. 4. Shame on you for printing the above-mentioned article before you had the rest of the story. You know that this issue of church and homosexuality is emotionally charged, and to present one side without the other to balance it off is biased yellow journalism. This was not a story that could not wait until Rev. Timothy Bruneau had returned, and you were able to talk with him. I look forward to reading your fair report of his church’s side of the story.
for your support of Tory Inglis, a very bright sounding young woman in our community. I find it abhorrent that institutions, such as the First Presbyterian Church on Seventh Street in New Westminster, ignore our Canadian human rights legislation and deny access to certain individuals. These same institutions are supported by our tax dollars and enjoy the privileges afforded all of us while paying no tax themselves. I ask, “What gives them the right of exclusion?” We lose too many of our youth to suicide, mainly due to the fact that they do not conform to these archaic beliefs. It is time for these institutions to educate themselves and join the 21st century. I wish the New Westminster Pride celebration every success in their first endeavour and hope it leads to many more.

Dear Editor:

Student’s art travelling the world McBride student gets noticed for his work BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com
Jaden Joseph’s artwork is travelling the world. Jaden, who is going into Grade 3 at Richard McBride Elementary School, was recently honoured for a piece of artwork he submitted in an art contest. “There was a project – My River, My Home. It was put on by the University of the Fraser Valley and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute,” said Grade 2 teacher Diane Kamagianis. “There were 289 pieces of artwork handed in.” A panel of judges selected Jaden’s artwork as an overall winner. Students from 13 classes in the Lower Mainland participated in the contest. “Jaden’s art piece won unanimously. My class was the youngest – they didn’t know that,” Kamagianis said about Jaden, who was seven at the time he drew his picture. “He won overall. I was so excited for him. That was an amazing thing. He is a wonderful artist.” Embracing his First Nations heritage, Jaden adds a touch of native art into many of his pictures. “It is just amazing,” Kamagianis said. “He draws the greatest pictures.” The contest, part of a global exchange of culture through artwork, will now travel the world, visiting places including China, the United States, India, Siberia and Africa. “He loves to draw. He is amazing. He is just wonderful,” Kamagianis said. “It’s pretty big honour out of that many to be chosen. And he’s so young.” In addition to Jaden, six of his Grade 2 classmates at Richard McBride were selected as run-

The contest is part of a global exchange of artwork and will travel the world. ners up. Locally, contest organizers targeted schools along or near the Fraser River. “The kids did an art piece and what the river means to them,” Kamagianis said. “They went into 13 classes throughout the Lower Mainland. Mine happened to be one of them.” Karen Willie, who is Jaden’s mom, is thrilled with her son’s award. “He draws all the time. He is
really good,” she said. “He has slept with his pen and paper. He will do a drawing for me and put them up on the wall when I wake up.” Willie recalls going to pick up her son at school, only to find fellow students trying to sell some of his drawings for $1 each. Because he’s only eight, she’s been unable to find a program where he can work on his skills.
“I just wish I could get him into a program of some sort,” she said. “He loves it so much.” Although he’s found artistic inspiration in various books from the library, art seems to come naturally to Jaden. “I got books to show him shapes,” Willie said. “He took it to a new level.” Jaden’s winning drawing included a canoe, two fish jumping out of the river, a longhouse
and two totem poles. “I like drawing eagles, whales, fishes, totem poles,” he said. “It’s just fun to do.” Jaden, the oldest of four brothers, said he’d like to be an artist when he’s older. His art kit includes oils and acrylics, but he prefers to work with pencil. “It’s hard to do paints,” he said. “It goes all over the place. It’s easy to do it with pencils.”
Prison escape story part of local lore OUR PAST
ARCHIE & DALE MILLER
W
e hope that you had a great time on the B.C. Day weekend, and you were able to fit in a little activity with an historical flavour. A large number of people joined us for a combined walking and cemetery tour as we marked
the escape of train robber Bill Miner from the B.C. Penitentiary in 1907. This weekend marks the actual day of the escape, Aug. 8, 1907, when Miner and three others went under one wall and over another to get away. They were spotted as they skirted the steep sides of the Glen Creek ravine heading in a roughly northern direction up the densely brush-covered area of Cumberland Street and Eighth Avenue, where they disappeared. While Miner’s accomplices were heard from in due course,
there were no credible or documented sightings of Miner in Canada ever again. He had been in our area in previous years as he brought horses down for sale from the Interior. He had contacts, involved with the horses, in the Ladner area. Miner was also noticed at the Lytton Hotel in New Westminster in about 1904/05, and a police chief confirmed this in 1906 when Miner was brought to the B.C. Pen to serve his sentence for robbing a train at Monte Creek (then Ducks), near
Kamloops, in May of that same year. The newspaper headlines laid out the story of the three escapees. The reports said: “Bill Miner escapes from prison guards. Gets away from yard in company with three other convicts. None of them yet recaptured; Disappeared in bush to northward of Penitentiary.” Another said, “No clue found to road taken by Bill Miner and his companions.” The tour group last Sunday was able to see the high sides of the Glen
ravine and imagine seeing, as witnesses did in 1907, the four men running along the edge of the gully as they made their escape. The group then climbed a staircase up out of the ravine to walk across the area that was the Pen brickyard of 103 years ago, and then visited a number of individuals in the Fraser and St Peter’s cemeteries who were closely tied, one way or another, to the escape. Miner, who used the alias George Edwards while in Canada, was known to many folks in the Similkameen and
Kamloops areas, but was always careful in the Fraser Valley and Lower Mainland, as he was a wanted man. He also triggered many stories from those who wanted to say that he had talked with them, had a meal with them, stayed overnight with them, and so on, but research shows that most of these are wishful thinking or simply untrue. Nevertheless, Miner certainly holds an interesting spot in the history of British Columbia and, in a “minor” way, the Royal City.

Prominent senior dies
BY ANDREW FLEMING REPORTER afleming@royalcityrecord.com
The Royal City recently lost one of its prominent citizens. Florence “Mommabear” Starr, a member of the Salvation Army’s board of directors for many years and a tireless community activist, passed away on July 25 after a recent diagnosis of cancer. She was 86. Starr lived at the Legion Manor condo tower for the past 30 years with her husband, Percy, who passed away eight years ago. Before that, the couple lived in Fernie, where they raised an unusually large family – three children of their own and a revolving door of foster children, including Polish and Czechoslovakian kids orphaned by the Second World War, and also disadvantaged B.C. kids taken straight from prison. “She was a very interesting individual and had a positive impact on many, many people,” said her son Byron, who runs a local portable dance floor business that his mother liked to volunteer her services at. He said his mother enjoyed dancing right into her eighties. “She was strong-willed and strong-minded right up
The day culminates with a Pride dance party in the back room of the Heritage Grill at 447 Columbia St. from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. On Sunday, celebrate New Westminster’s famous gay son, Raymond Burr, at the Burr Brunch at the Coming Home Café from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Cruise the Fraser with Paddlewheeler Riverboat tours during the Peter Breeze Cruise: Glamour on the Fraser from 3:30 to 5:30 p.m. Tickets are $20. The festival wraps up with a closing party at the
concert stage on the Quay. The Royal Sendoff starts at 6 p.m. and includes performances. For more information, go to: www.royalcitypride society.com.
Viva la divas in New West
Two times the diva power will be rocking the RedBar Lounge at the Starlight Casino next week. Rock.It Boy Entertainment presents the double-diva extravaganza Viva La Divas – Then and Now in
performance on Thursday, Aug. 12. Bonnie Kilroe, the one-woman multi-faceted, witty, saucy and raucous celebrity impersonator, has joined forces with Barb Oliver from the Divas Las Vegas show, and the result is pure dynamite, according to a press release from Rock.It. “Both ladies are multitalented, with the ability to move through amazingly diverse vocal styles, adopting the personalities and styles of some wild, crazy and entertaining women,”
the release says. “The show is flawless, and it is very easy to just believe that all those divas are the real thing.” Kilroe and Oliver are able to impersonate everyone from Lady Gaga to Absolutely Fabulous’ Patsy and Eddy to Bette Midler. Tickets are $28.50 plus a facility fee and service charges, and can be purchased from the casino’s guest services or online at Ticketweb.ca. Doors open at 7 p.m., and the show starts at 8 p.m.

until the end,” said Starr. Along with running for mayor of Fernie back in a time when it was rare for women to be involved in politics, Starr was recently under consideration for the Order of Canada. Starr withdrew her name from consideration due to the presence of another candidate on the nomination list – prominent pro-choice advocate Dr. Henry Morgentaler, who was given the award in 2008. “She opposed him and didn’t want her name to be on the same list as him,” her son said with a wry chuckle. “She was a very sweet person, but she always knew the difference between right and wrong, and she always knew what to do about it.” A memorial service will be held at 1 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 22, at the Salvation Army Church at 325 Sixth St.

Ryder is very excited to join the tour, playing in Camden and Holmdel, New Jersey and Boston, Massachusetts, this week. “It is a total dream come true,” she says, adding she was a runner up to join the previous Lilith Fair tour as new talent when it stopped in 1999. Ryder has three Junos under her belt, two for her most recent album. Her first, in 2008, was in the New Artist of the Year category. She received one in 2009 for Adult Alternative Album of the Year for is it o.k., and in 2010 for Video of the Year for Little Bit of Red, a single from the album. “It feels amazing and inspiring,” she says. “It is validation for what I’ve been doing and what I’m doing now.” The new albums has been credited with being the one where Ryder established her voice. “I felt like I got out of my old stuff and came into

the new.” She’s working on a new album and begins recording in September, she says. Ryder, now 28, began playing guitar when she was 13, in Millbrook, Ont., and cut her first indie recording at 15. Her bluesy voice, combined with wistful, yearning lyrics, is a powerful mix. Ryder sees music as a way of connecting with others, she explains. “I am a really, really sensitive person,” she says. “The music I listed to (when I was younger) helped me relate to the world.” She sees her music as a way to do that for others. Ryder grew up listening oldies AM radio and prefers music from the ‘30s to mid-70s, she says. “I listened to music that had a lot of depth,” she says. Ryder says she prefers playing outdoor festivals because of the atmosphere and the crowds. Ryder will be playing this year’s Burnaby Blues and Roots Festival, along with Taj Mahal, Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Lukas Nelson and the Promise of the Real, Colin Linden, Yukon Blonde and Little Miss Higgins. The 11th annual Blues and Roots Festival will be held on Saturday, Aug. 14 from 12:30 p.m. at the Deer Lake Park. See www.burn abybluesfestival.com for tickets.

Final falling into familiar pattern BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com
The outcome of Game 3 of the B.C. Junior Lacrosse League playoff final between New Westminster and Coquitlam was eerily predictable. After splitting the first two games of the best-ofseven junior A championship final with late period flourishes, the Coquitlam AdanacstookWednesday’s game at home with an 11-8 win. In similar fashion to the opening two games in the series, the A’s broke open a tightly played match with five straight goals to take control in the final period. Coquitlam won the opening game on the strength of a 4-0 overtime period. In Game 2, it was the New Westminster Salmonbellies turn to pull away with a 5-1 third period. When all three games are taken as a whole, the two clubs have been deadlocked 18-18 heading into the periods leading up to the pivotal final frames. But Salmonbellie head coach Dan Perreault dismissed the chance the outcome of the game was predictable. “It could have gone either way. It was a pass we could make 10 out of 10 times, and ultimately they go down and score shorthanded,” Perrault said of Mark Matthew’s go-ahead goal for Coquitlam to open the third period. “The last time it was us, this time it was them. We had great chances in the second period.” New Westminster
Burrards baffle ’Bellies in opener BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com
Paul vanPeenen/THE RECORD
It’s a battle: Justin Salt, centre, works hard for the ball in Game 1 of the best-of-seven B.C. junior A lacrosse final against the Coquitlam Adanacs. The New Westminster Salmonbellies currently trail the series 2-1. played catchup throughout the match, tying the contest on six separate occasions before the A’s caught fire in the final 20 minutes. Jay Card kept up his torrid playoff pace with a six-point game, including a hat trick to take over the lead in the playoff scoring race. Brandon Goodwin potted a pair of goals for the ’Bellies, while leading all scorers with six points. Colton Clark chipped
in with a goal and four helpers. Dan Lewis made 35 stops in the Coquitlam goal. Brandon Mulligan took the loss in goal, stopping just five of 10 Adanac shots in the final period. “It comes down to mental mistakes,” said Clark, a 6-3 pickup from Nanaimo. “It makes for an interesting series. Hopefully we’ll come back and beat them the next time.” Clark added that both
teams are near unbeatable in their home arenas. The onus is therefore on New Westminster to steal at least one game at the Coquitlam Sports Centre. “It’s no lie we both play well in our barns,” Clark said. “The players are so good that the littlest mistake and it ends up in the net. Unfortunately, we made more mistakes.” One mistake New Westminster didn’t make was to give up any power play goals to the regu-
lar season leader in that department. The Salmonbellies, on the other hand, scored five times with the man advantage. Game 4 was played at Queen’s Park Arena on Friday (after The Record deadlines). In the Ontario junior A final, Orangeville Northmen currently lead the Six Nations Arrows two games to none. The Minto Cup starts in Coquitlam on Aug. 21.
On his way to fulfilling a father’s dream BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com
For Jackson Schaefer, an upcoming trip to Serbia could be the first step to achieving what his late father aspired to be – an Olympian. Jackson, a 6-2 Grade 10 student at New Westminster Secondary School, was recently selected to Canada’s first-ever 16-and-under boys’ national water polo team. The Canadian boys travelled to the Balkan country in the first week of August to train with the Serbian national youth team before taking part in a 10-team international tournament in the capital of Belgrade. Jackson’s father, Ron, represent-
ed Canada on the senior national team in 1979, helping his country win its first-ever medal, a bronze, at the Pan American Games. A year later, Ron was denied an opportunity to take part at the Olympic Games when Western countries boycotted the 1980 Games in Moscow. Ron passed away suddenly five years ago from a heart attack. “(My father) never got to go the Olympics, and I hope one day I can go to the Olympics. I just want to be one of the best in the country,” Jackson said, adding he wants to help Canada continue to develop into a dominant player on the world stage as well. “I think that is what this Team Canada is all about – to keep us moving
up the rankings in world water polo.” Jackson, 14, has been steadily moving up the water polo depth charts since he stopped swimming competitively with the Hyack Swim Club at the age of nine in order to take up the sport. Last year, he went to the cadet nationals as the youngest bantam-aged player on the provincial squad and had a strong individual outing against a team from Calgary, scoring three times against the older and stronger boys. “He’s not scared. He played well above expectations at the nationals last year,” said his Fraser Valley Water Polo Club coach, Kevin Mitchell, who competed on the national men’s team at the
Beijing Olympics in 2008. “He’s a very hard worker. He loves the sport and he listens. He’s coordinated and he’s got a good feel for the water,” Mitchell said. “He has potential to make the Olympic team program.” That is likely music to Jackson’s ears. He was a little surprised to have been initially selected to a 30player Western squad after attending national team tryouts in Surrey at the beginning of the year. At the club nationals in Regina in May, Jackson got an added boost when, following the competition at an East/West team camp, he was named to the 20-member ◗Serbia Page 16
The New Westminster Salmonbellies are in a dog fight. The regular season Western Lacrosse Association champs stumbled in their opening game of the best-of-seven semifinals, falling 12-11 to the fourth-place-finishing Maple Ridge Burrards at Queen’s Park Arena Tuesday. The Burrards, 2-1 series winners against the ‘Bellies during the regular season, once again showed the quickness and resilience that has proved a difficult matchup for the defending two-time playoff champs this season. “We believe we are a better team than they are and we play as a team,” said the game’s first star Andrew Murphy, who had two goals and three assists for the Burrards. “We’re not a very big team, but we’re fast and hardworking. In the games we won, we just wanted it more, and it’s what we’re going to be all series.” That should be evident to New Westminster, who was shocked 9-4 by Maple Ridge in the first meeting between the two teams at Queen’s Park back in June. The Burrards took the head-to-head league series with a 9-7 victory in Maple Ridge in mid-July. One consistent factor in all four meetings to date has been the play of cast-off goalkeeper Ron Schibild. The former Salmonbellie backup has stopped more than 40 shots in all four games to date, including 41 on Tuesday. At one point of the third period, with New Westminster coming back from a five-goal deficit, Schibild made five pointblank stops with ‘Bellie shooters on the doorstep before Alex Gajic drew the home team within a single counter, sniping his second of the game to the far corner of the net. “I give (Maple Ridge) credit, they give you an honest game. They give you all they have. It’s up to us to play at our level and stay out of all the distractions,” said New ◗Bellies Page 16

Canadian travelling team to Serbia, despite his club team’s 12th-place showing. “I just think I played a strong camp and did well in swimming and they wanted me on the team, and I’m happy with that,” he said. So, too, is his mother Karen. Karen is the current president of the Fraser Valley club and is carrying on her late husband’s legacy by giving back to the sport he loved. Later this year, the Fraser Valley club
will hold its second annual Bigger than Big memorial water polo tournament in memory of Ron. The proceeds of the u-16 men’s tournament wll provide bursaries to support young amateur water polo players in financial need. It’s her way of giving back says Karen. “(Ron) just wanted to keep kids in the water. It was one of his passions. It was how we met,” she said. “He told me that I was one of the best things that came out of water polo.”
Javelin throwers win gold at track and field nats Krista Woodward of New Westminster won her third national javelin title last weekend. Woodward won the title with a throw of 53.53 metres at the Canadian track and field championships in Toronto. Canadian senior record holder Elizabeth Gleadle of B.C. finished fifth overall. Woodward, who holds the championship record of 54.89m set in 2007, was less than five metres behind Gleadle’s national mark. Three of Woodward’s five throws were more than 52m. Runner-up Vicki Webb of York University and
third-place finisher Alanna Kovacks of Ontario were the only other throwers over 50m. Curtis Moss of Burnaby won the men’s javelin title. Moss hurled the winning throw 74.76 metres on his fifth attempt, surpassing runner-up Caleb Jones of Saint John, N.B. by more than a metre. Moss finished second overall in 2009. Jones threw 73.25m on his opening throw to take a slight lead over Moss. The Burnaby Central athlete then took the lead with his third consecutive throw over 71 metres – a 73.48m toss. The men’s senior jav-
elin record is 84.41m set by Scott Russell in 2005.
JD at Kamloops
At the provincial junior development championships in Kamloops, a threeathlete contingent from Royal City Track brought back five medals. Samuel Nygard, 13, took part in nine separate events, winning silver in hammer throw and bronze in the javelin and 80-metre hurdles. Sisters Brianne, 11, and nine-year-old Shianne Lowka also competed. Shianne placed second in the long jump and third in the high jump.
Bellies: They know now they’re in a series ◗ continued from page 15
Westminster assistant captain Curtis Hodgson. “I think we got caught up in all those things other than playing lacrosse and I think it was too little, too late.” Salmonbellie righthander Jordan McBride made it look easy in the opening minutes of the game, scoring from the top of the circle on New Westminster’s first shot on goal. But Maple Ridge used its speed and ball movement to good effect, surviving the first-period intimidation from the ‘Bellies while keeping one step ahead in the goal column. The strategy by the Burrards was similar to that of earlier matches against the bigger Salmonbellies, and it’s the game

plan Maple Ridge hopes to ride to the WLA final, says Murphy. Hodgson said the Salmonbellies will have to fight fire with fire. “They capitalized on their opportunities. We’re a bigger, stronger team than they are, but we have to let our lacrosse do the talking,” he said. “But on the positive side, we know we’re in a series and we have to respond. … It’s a good test to start the series. It’s going to be a battle.” Game 2 of the semifinal series was played Thursday in Maple Ridge (after Record deadlines). Game 3 is back at Queen’s Park on Saturday, with Game 4 at Planet Ice in Maple Ridge on Monday. All game times are 7:45 p.m.
Douglas College transfer Brent Lawrence signed a letter of intent to play NCAA baseball at Northern State University in South Dakota this fall. Lawrence will play in the Division II Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference in the upcoming season.

M o m m a b e a r / FLORENCE STARR,
At 86, was peacefully and gently promoted to glory on July 25, 2010, after being diagnosed with cancer only five months earlier. She remained dignified, strong and courageous during her sickness. She was married to Percy for 61 years and they both delighted in raising their three children; Duane, Byron & Dawn in Fernie. There was 'laughter in the walls' of that good old home. These were two friends of all Christian churches. They took in war-torn youth from Poland and Czechoslovakia after the 2nd world war. They took young disadvantaged kids right out of prison, into their home and raised them as their own. Children have been named after them. She was a school board trustee, sponsored and ran; a Junior Citizens club, a Senior Citizens club and founded the Tom Uphill Memorial Home so elder seniors could live-out a quality and dignified life. She ran for Mayor one year way back. She was recognized as 'Citizen Of The Year' by the city and recently nominated for the 'Order Of Canada' for her life-long community service. She was proud to be a Salvation Army soldier. She had a keen sense of what was right and wrong and knew what to do about it. Her exuberance for life and infectious personality touched everyone. Baseball and hockey, in New Westminster, will never be the same without her. She is remembered and appreciated by many friends but forever and ever, Loved and cherished and treasured by all the Starr & Camilli family including; Duane & Donna, Sharlene, Dawn & Dave, Karey, Kristi, Byron & Barbara, Jason, Laura, Andrew, as well as her adopted family; Ken, Richard & Kelly. We were all blessed when she was born. Many, many, thanks go to Dr. Henry Wong & Dr. J. Keegan-Henry, two outstanding doctors and the wonderful caregivers at the Laurel Place Hospice. A memorial service will be held on Sunday, August 22, 2010 at the Salvation Army Church, 325 Sixth Street, New Westminster BC V3L 3A9 to celebrate Florence Starr’s 'unbelievable' life. It will commence at 1:00 pm. followed by sandwiches, and beverages, made with tender Love and care by her many friends at her church. In lieu of flowers she would appreciate donations to the N.W. Salvation Army.

6020-06
Aries March 21 - April 19: The main accent falls on romance, creative urges, speculative risks, charming children, beauty and pleasure. You’re on a winning streak, especially Sunday night to Tuesday, so enjoy, take advantage! Chase money, earnings, new clients and shopping bargains Tuesday eve, Wednesday. (But take care Thursday: don’t buy technology.) Relationships face some upheaval, disagreement Monday (when a deep rift is possible) and Thursday, but exciting agreement, attraction Friday/Saturday. You still face a “long climb” in partnerships, opportunities, relocation, but a potentially successful one!
Cancer June 21-July 22: Chase money, especially Sunday eve to Tuesday. You can meet great luck, opportunity, these few days, and a problem. The predicament concerns your home and relationships; don’t let it go underground. (It might resurface Thursday.) The rest of this week is smooth, easy, a respite from problems. Your home atmosphere is sweet and sour – temper and affection mingle. This might occur because you feel secure, yet your ambitions seem thwarted. To succeed, be ambitious about security, real estate, food, cafes or similar arenas. (However, stop short of starting any brand new projects.)
Taurus April 20-May 20: Seek quiet, rest, cool shade. Your home, family, roots, security, nutrition, gardening, property, soul – these offer good luck all week, especially Sunday eve to Tuesday. However, these three days might also bring a split between you and another – unspoken, perhaps, but sensed. This probably involves work, employment and a legal, ethical or travel situation. (A wee echo of this Thursday, also.) Your creative, romantic side surfaces mid-week – all’s fine here, though you might experience little more than a “sweet notion.” Tackle chores – safely Thursday, wholeheartedly Friday/Saturday.
Leo July 23-Aug. 22: The problems of the last two weeks ebb now. However, two remain: the lesser involves communications/travel and health/work (mostly Monday). E.g., your car breaks down so you miss work. The larger dilemma (all week) also involves communication/travel, but “pulls in” legal, educational, publishing or international factors.You’ll have to decide between facts and ideas, casual communications or profound issues, near/small or far/large. For instance, do you make a verbal agreement or sign a contract? Love or acquaintanceship? You shine Sunday night to Tuesday! Chase money mid-week.
Gemini May 21-June 20: Read, write, travel, call, connect with siblings – luck here Sunday/Monday! The last two weeks brought some confrontations, splits, or problems – or simply a definite change in direction. That’s largely over, but a subtle alienation from a loved one (or in a new romance) could occur early this week – and a not-so subtle rift Thursday. Best idea: if you want to chase romance, wait until at least Thursday 9 p.m. (PDT) onward. The entire two years ahead demand slowness, steadiness and loyalty from you, if you wish to succeed in love. A big age difference is possible. Rest, mid-week.
Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Finish, advance ongoing projects. Refrain from starting anything new. A slowdown starts next week, lasting to Sept. 12. Sunday/ Monday could solidify a source of income, and/or bring a durable set of ideas, a practical “life philosophy” that helps you go forward steadily. Instability also lurks, if you allow pleasure or romantic notions to steer you away from duties or practical goals. Contemplate the different paths of earnings versus investments. You might make a choice between these now to mid2011. Rest, contemplate to Tuesday. Money’s good Friday/Saturday. A good week!

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Wishes can come true! Popularity, optimism, social delights, flirtations visit you! (They did the last two weeks, too, but might have been obscured by other problems.) Your sexual and romantic magnetism rise another notch. This mingles with a curious prudence on your part. Net result: you might have to decide whether to continue charming someone or to subtly retreat, around Monday. Similarly, you might, over the nine days ahead, face the difference between someone else’s friendliness and your own caution. There’s no harm (and much luck) in joining, bonding. Rest mid-week. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Be ambitious, especially Sunday to Tuesday – but start no new projects. Work to complete, to give ongoing projects a new heave, to mend “prestige fences” with valuable people. Be light, humorous – the problems of the past few weeks are fading. But don’t expect co-operation: others wish you well, especially mid-week, but they won’t further your cause. Avoid gossip (and being its victim) Monday. Think about a long-term trend (now to mid-2011): your hands-on work is expanding, but your management duties are growing heavier. Which to favour? The hands-on. Rest, Friday. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Your natural August mood – mellow, broad-minded, yearning for travel or culture – returns nicely, especially Sunday eve to Tuesday. An opportunity could arise to travel afar, attend a college (etc.) or disseminate your ideas – seize it! But be aware of one problem (now to mid-2011): it involves a choice between (or inability to merge) your future goals, your cherished wishes, your social life on the one hand, and your creative, speculative, pleasure or romantic urges on the other. E.g., should you choose friends or romance? Save for your future, or just have fun? You’ll be happy Friday/ Saturday!
A Property Worth Seeing!
Call Leigh Turnbull 604-530-4111
August 8 - 14 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Mysteries abound, especially Sunday to Tuesday – find out why recent career and domestic events or pressures occurred. The answer could be lucrative! Taking a forward stance, step, could give your ambitions a boost, Tuesday or Thursday eve to Saturday. A congenial, powerful female might play a favourable role. (There is also a temperamental, probably male, higher-up, who still needs a diplomatic approach.) Caution was a good idea the last two weeks, but too much now can impede you. Mid-week’s mellow, loving. All week, examine “big finances” – but complete, don’t start. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Relationships assume prime importance, especially Sunday eve to Tuesday (when a new link might form). You can fight or cooperate; realize that the other person/side holds the aces, the power. In legal, intellectual, international, far travel, educational and cultural zones, your secrets (or some other thing which you’d rather remain hidden: desires, fears, etc.) can be your weak spot, particularly Tuesday and Thursday. The cure for this (and many things!) is honesty. You will face the need soon to choose between a profound and a more casual relationship. The casual’s luckier. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Much work awaits – plunge in and get it done, especially Sunday eve to Tuesday. You might be very hopeful about an investment or monetary action, but study underlying trends and forces before you leap – for instance, does the economic climate of your nation or locale flow in the same direction as your idea? Maybe. In the semi-big picture (now to mid-2011) chasing earnings is luckier than relying on investments or other people’s money. Anyway, serious decisions called for. Relationships lure you mid-week. Mysteries, secrets, sexual desires make Friday/Saturday interesting! timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
