◗ WINTER

Let it snow, let it snow Winter arrives early in the Royal City BY ANDREW FLEMING REPORTER afleming@royalcityrecord.com

New Westminster had its first real taste of winter on Thursday. Environment Canada reported around 10 centimetres of snow had fallen by the end of the day, creating trouble for midday commuters – although it wasn’t anything the city’s small army of street cleaners couldn’t handle. “Unfortunately, they built the city on the side of a hill, so it can be a bit of a struggle,” said city street cleaner Greg Dodgshon with a laugh. He said coping with the heavy snowfall went better than expected. “I’ve been doing this for close to 20 years and, for that much snow, it was surprising, it went really well. Usually we have ◗Snow Page 2

Board adopts conflict-of-interest policy BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

The board of education passed a conflict-of-interest policy for trustees, but for one trustee the conflict issue is an “insult.” Earlier this month, Voice trustee Jim Goring introduced a last-minute motion to the board, saying it urgently needed to develop a conflict policy for trustees because the district had entered into union contract negotiations with the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE).

OPEN S 6 DAY Mon.-Fri. 9am-6pm Sat. 9am-5pm

“The original policy introduced by trustee Goring, while he says it wasn’t any kind of personal attack, I really don’t think that’s true. I think it was political grandstanding,” trustee Lori Watt told The Record. She felt that Goring attacked her integrity with his motion, which dealt with conflict as it relates to the financial interest of a trustee, including those with a family member working for the district, those who received campaign contributions from an entity that has a financial interest in the district or who are shareholders in a

firm with financial ties to the district. Though Goring had been the one pushing for a conflict policy, it was trustee Michael Ewen who brought forward the motion that was passed in a 5-2 vote – with Watt and trustee Brent Atkinson being the only two trustees to oppose it. Ewen was trying to build consensus with his conflict motion, Watt said, though she still didn’t support it. “Had it been introduced differently, maybe I would have supported it,” she said, referring to Goring’s original bid. As a trustee, Watt said she is sufficiently

governed by the School Act with regards to conflict. “I’m tired of hearing stories in the newspaper about how I’m in conflict,” she said. “It was very clear that this was a move to remove any labour-endorsed candidates from any discussions. “At the end of the day, I will still govern myself under the School Act,” she said. “It doesn’t really change anything in terms of our regulations.” Watt, who works at CUPE’s head office ◗Conflict Page 5

All public schools in School District 40 remained open throughout the day (likely to the chagrin of some students and teach-

ers alike), while Douglas College made the decision to cancel classes at its New West campus beginning after 4 p.m. If there is still snow on the ground by the time you read this, it probably won’t be Larry Wright/THE RECORD there for long as the extended forecast for New Westminster calls for sunny skies on Fun in the snow: At left, Jennifer Domville and her ﬁve-year-old son Jaxson take to the hill at Queen’s Park.

Rick Molstad still can’t get the vision of 500 Santas streaming down Columbia Street at last year’s Hyack Christmas Parade of Lights out of his head. The flash mob of red-suited Jolly St. Nick’s came streaming out of the Columbia Street SkyTrain station and made an impromptu appearance at last year’s parade. “We try and have only one Santa so that we don’t confuse the kids,” said Molstad, the parade director. “When all those Santas came out, we didn’t know what to do.” For the most part, those happy Santas were well behaved, with one exception. “We had to write, I think, one letter of apology for one of the Santas,” said Molstad. “It was definitely interesting with all those Santas.” This year’s parade is set for Saturday, Dec. 4, starting at 4 p.m. and culminating with a tree lighting ceremony just before 6 p.m. The 24th version of the parade is scheduled to include approximately 65 floats and entries, including bands and

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Train noise is complicated ◗ continued from page 6

horns. The larger trains are heavier to switch because they have more tonnage to push or pull, and every car takes up the slack going both ways. The noise can carry for miles, never absorbed by the ballast on the ground. The train cars come from all over North America, and the condition of the cars is unknown, because the railways no longer have inspection safety standards that satisfy the majority of the public demands on noise and non-braking applications in switching yards. The railway has this historic claim blaming the public for crossing accidents and run-overs, claiming such things as the brakes work, but don’t stop the train. Or the brakes do not work so the train won’t stop. The senility of the system says we will use louder horns because we have gotten away with it so far. The public complaints are very justified and post-judge the early day being brought into today’s world in New Westminster, without public legislation and only railway regulation, as if were not here. Politicians in New Westminster, who pass plans to build residential highrises beside the railway tracks, are reluctant at the same time to have the local real estate board put a railway danger clause in the contract so the buyer has the knowledge first, and then can beware. All one has to do is go for a walk along the Quayside and count the real estate signs. People want out of something they did not know they were getting into. And one thing for sure, they are not at fault. This same transportation problem is chronic throughout North America. In the early ’50s most railways moved out of big cities, got rid of passengers, then went to the jet.

Today the cities have caught up to them again, with enormous growth patterns, and the railways are circled by that sprawl and are trapped in the circle that grew around them. Their logic seems to be, louder horns for denser off-rail traffic hazards, and longer trains so there are fewer of them to interfere with highway traffic. In 1987, Judge Foisy of the Alberta Court of Queen’s Bench told CN and CP the cause of the Hinton crash was productivity over safety. In other words, moving freight and ignoring safety regulations caused the biggest passenger train disaster of last century. So for those of you who live along the New Westminster right-of-way, plan for a big railway accident, because they got the message all wrong. Bryan Vogler, New Westminster

Fees for cancer tests discouraging people Dear Editor:

Re: Cancer tests should be covered, Letters to the editor, The Record, Nov. 13. I have spent the last 20-odd years complaining to any and every MLA and/or MP that the fee for the prostate-specific antigen test is not only unfair but also discouraging men from taking the test. I am now in the fortunate position whereby I will not be paying the fee in the future since my last paid PSA test started the ball rolling by indicating that I had prostate cancer from whence came the biopsy, the estrogen injections and the seven weeks of radiation therapy, which now, hopefully, has solved the problem. The radiation therapy visits to Surrey Memorial Hospital were shared with my wife, whose mammogram had detected a cancerous lump, which again hopefully was detected in time for an effective cure.

Anti-Semitism: Please speak out ◗ continued from page 6

anti-Semitism they should rightly call it out. I appreciate that many letter writers felt obligated to call our editorial antiSemitic. I don’t agree with that assessment. But, frankly, I would

rather have allies of Jews erring on the side of speaking out against what they viewed as an antiSemitic statement, than not speaking out or writing. Whatever you may agree with or disagree with, it is, in my opinion, better to share your

Parking pressures growing in Sapperton BY THERESA MCMANUS REPORTER tmcmanus@royalcityrecord.com

Coun. Betty McIntosh believes the city needs to find ways of addressing mounting parking pressures around Sapperton Park. McIntosh said people who want to park around Sapperton Park are finding it increasingly difficult to find spots. She said there’s no dedicated parking for Sapperton Park, which is located at East Columbia and Sherbrooke streets. “Those teams that are practising don’t just generate from New Westminster,” she said of park goers. “It’s another pressure point in Sapperton.” At the Oct. 25 council meeting, McIntosh served notice that she’d like staff to report on suggestions to re-establish parking on the south and west side lanes around Sapperton Park. Parking was previously permitted in the lanes. “I am confident it will work,” she said. “There are ways of doing parking that would work.”

McIntosh, a Sapperton resident, said there used to be parking in the lanes around Sapperton Park, including the lane that runs parallel to Sherbrooke Street and a lane that runs above the park’s playground. “It’s because of the high usage of the park,” she said. “That’s great. That is what parks are for. You should also provide some parking for the park.” In addition to park goers, McIntosh said people going to Royal Columbian Hospital and nearby businesses and churches are having a hard time finding parking. McIntosh said Sapperton is continuing to densify and businesses have opened that are attracting people to the area. She’s confident the city would be able to find additional parking spots in the area. In 2009, the city removed several parking spaces in front of Sapperton Park on East Columbia Street. “The hospital staff were quite angry about the parking coming off East Columbia,” she said. www.twitter.com/TheresaMcManus

‘Con Air’ ﬂies again

New West police have flown yet another out-of-province criminal back home again. On Nov. 15, members of the New Westminster Police Service arrested a 33year-old man as a result of a fraud investigation. “A check of the male found that he had a lengthy criminal history including robberies, property crime and violence,” said police spokesperson Sgt. Gary Weishaar. “It was also learned that he was wanted

by the Toronto Police Service for breach of a one-year conditional sentence order after being found guilty of multiple counts of assault and uttering threats.” Robert Joseph Fraser had agreed to several conditions in order to avoid going to jail, conditions he violated by relocating to B.C. Fraser was flown back under escort to Ontario earlier this week and transported to jail. – Andrew Fleming

Elektra offers warmth for winter

Chez Nous: Christmas With Elektra concert at Queens Avenue United Church this weekend BY JULIE MACLELLAN REPORTER jmaclellan@royalcityrecord.com

It seems only fitting that snow is falling as Morna Edmundson chats about the Elektra Women’s Choir’s concert in New West this weekend. The soft white blanket is the perfect backdrop for Chez Nous, the concert set for 2 p.m. today (Saturday, Nov. 27) at Queens Avenue United Church. It’s a concert Elektra has been performing on the first Sunday of Advent since 2005 – each time including guest artists and a children’s choir. This year’s concert features harpist Heidi Krutzen, flutist Lorna McGhee,

and pianist/organist Stephen Smith. The Vancouver Bach Children’s Chorus, under the direction of Marisa Gaetanne, will also take the stage. “It’s going to be beautiful,” promises Edmundson, the choir’s artistic director. The program will feature both familiar and not-so-familiar melodies designed to get audiences into a Christmas frame of mind. “It’s always a mix of familiar things and new and exciting things,” explains Edmundson. This year’s concert centrepiece is Benjamin Britten’s A Ceremony of Carols, the 1942 work that has become a choral classic. Audiences can also expect arrangements of some traditional songs – a Derek Holman arrangement of In Dulci Jubilo, a Stephen Smith arrangement of the traditional English Yorkshire Wassail, John Rutter’s arrangement of Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day and a Ken Berg arrangement of the Austrian Still, Still, Still, among

THE RECORD

Teen earns honour THE LIVELY CITY JULIE MACLELLAN

arah Quinn is winning honours again. The 14-year-old New Westminster girl has just earned the Royal Conservatory of Music’s Silver Medal for Grade 5 voice. The Silver Medal awards go to the students who achieve the highest mark in the province at each grade level. Sarah earned 91 on her Grade 5 voice exam in June – which puts her among the top one per cent of students across the country and earned her a First Class Honours With Distinction. The medals were presented at a ceremony at Mount Seymour United Church in North Vancouver on Nov. 13. Sarah is a Grade 9 French immersion student at New Westminster Secondary School, going into her third year of studying voice with local voice and piano teacher Lois Weninger. You may remember Sarah from a feature article that ran in The Record in May, when both Sarah and

Krista Gibbard – a 17-yearold student of Weninger’s – were chosen to compete at the Performing Arts B.C. 2010 Festival. Sarah has sung with the B.C. Girls’ Choir and the Vancouver Bach Children’s Chorus, and she’s currently in the senior chamber choir and jazz choir at NWSS, where she also plays clarinet in the concert band. Besides her voice lessons, she also studies piano with Weninger, and she recently completed her intermediate foundation ballet exam – which ends her seven years of dance study because she wants to focus on voice. She has aspirations to become a professional opera singer. Kudos to Sarah once again. And as for that professional future, don’t forget: When you see Sarah’s name in lights one day, you read about her here first!

My husband and I have been married for 15 years and have two children. I was a stay at home mother for our entire marriage. We have now separated and my husband states that because he was the only income earner, I am not entitled to a division of the family assets. Is he correct?

David Halkett

Lost in the 50’s

Your husband is most deﬁnitely not correct. In British Columbia, marriage is considered an economic partnership. Once a married couple separates, they are entitled to apply for a division of family assets. The starting point is an equal division of all assets used for a family purpose. Such assets can include (amongst others) the family home, RRSPs, employment pensions and household goods and effects. The longer the marriage, the less likely a court will deviate from an equal division of the family assets although both parties are entitled to ask the court to divide the assets unequally if an equal division would be unfair in a speciﬁc set of circumstances. You should seek legal advice regarding your entitlement to a division of assets.

Queensborough residents demonstrated a flair for photography and a passion for their community in the Hot Shots! photo contest. The City of New Westminster held the contest as part of the Queensborough community plan planning pro-

cess. The photo contest was meant to provide a fun way of engaging the community in the planning process, allowing them to share their pride, spirit and creativity through photography. “We will be putting them in the Queensborough plan,” senior planner Lil Ronalds said about some of the submissions. “We wanted to involve the com-

munity at a very organic level in the plan.” The Queensborough plan will help guide future growth and development in the Queensborough neighbourhood. “We had quite a few more entries than our downtown one, which is really exciting,” Ronalds said. “We got some incredible photos.

oy (Buster) Cairns’ contributions to the Royal City won’t soon be forgotten. Cairns, who was born in Clayburn, B.C., in 1925, passed away on Nov. 13 at the age of 85. The Royal City resident volunteered with the New Westminster Police Service for more than 20 years. “He was an awesome, awesome, awesome gentleman,” said Const. Bruce Ballingall. “He worked really hard to make New Westminster a safe place. He was an awesome community partner. He is definitely going to be missed. He is what we call a straw that stirs the drink.” Cairns served in the Canadian Air Force in the Second World War. He was inducted into the Canadian Soccer Hall of Fame for his accomplishments in soccer. “Roy was a member of Canada’s first World Cup soccer team and was also awarded Athlete of the Year in 1957,” said an obituary. “Roy was further honoured with recognition in the New Westminster and Abbotsford Sports Hall of Fame.” A memorial service is being held on Saturday, Nov. 27 (today) at noon at Columbia-Bowell Funeral Chapel, 219 Sixth St. In lieu of flowers, people may make a donation in Roy’s name to the Peace Arch Hospital Foundation.

from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. For more information about the college, call 604-5178732 or e-mail cccr@telus. net. Launched in 1973, the College for the Retired offers courses in three semesters (fall, winter and spring). It’s currently hoping to find a quilting instructor for on Wednesday afternoons from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. Send Around Town ideas to Theresa, tmcmanus@royalcity record.com.

Urban Academy craft fair packs the house A CLASS ACT

NIKI HOPE

he weekend craft sale at Urban Academy was a big hit, with even Mayor Wayne Wright making his way to the event to support the independent school’s fundraiser. Christmas at the Manor Craft Sale was held on Nov. 20 and 21, with roughly 1,200 people showing up for the fundraiser at the Victorian-style manor, which houses the school. Attendees were able to enjoy Christmas carols, sung by students, just before the mayor cut the

ribbon to officially open the fair. The sale also featured an old-fashioned tearoom staffed by student volunteers who served up tea, coffee and cookies. Money raised at the event will go to support the school’s art, drama, French and music programs. Urban Academy is a non-profit independent school in New Westminster. The artsinfused school offers programs for junior kindergarten to Grade 10 and plans to expand to Grade 12 by 2012. It offers a tuition-assistance program and awards thousands of dollars in scholarship money to students.

New principal

Lord Kelvin Elementary school has a new face at the helm. Daljeet Rama was

hired to replace retiring principal Barb Keating, who was at the Moody Park Elementary school for about a year. Previously, Keating was the principal at F.W. Howay Elementary. Rama will take over principal duties at Kelvin on Jan 1, 2011. She brings more than 20 years of experience as a teacher, vice-principal and principal in the Abbotsford school district. She has extensive experience with instructing English-as-a-second-language and special education and served both as a department head and counselling coordinator. She was the Canadian Teachers’ Federation representative for teaching in Kathmandu, Nepal. Rama also has roots in New Westminster. She was born in New West and lived in Queensborough as a child.

Your healthy body MORE THAN JUST EXERCISE

In fact, we are proud of our reputation of being one of the healthiest cities in Canada – and given the lifestyle we live, it’s important to remember that oftentimes we take our bodies for granted. Since activity is important at all stages of life, it’s always a good idea to take care of our overworked limbs and muscles. One of those ways, is with proper massage therapy. Our bodies beneﬁt from the soft tissue manipulation which provides physical, functional and psychological beneﬁts. Should pain be an issue for you, physiotherapy may be your answer. It provides the treatment needed to develop, maintain and restore maximum pain free movement and function throughout life. Another body treatment which is imperative to good health is that of kinesiology. This is the science of human movement

through analysis, preservation and enhancement of how our body moves. Finally, a chiropractor practices the discipline that emphasizes diagnosis, treatment and prevention of mechanical disorders of the skeletal system, in particular, the spine.

For many, books on CD or MP3 are reminiscent of summertime road trips, something that helps pass the time. Don’t relegate audiobooks to this single use – audiobooks are in season, any time of the year. An audiobook, whether on CD or downloaded from Library to Go (http://bcpl.lib.overdrive. com or link from www. nwpl.ca), can be fun for kids and kids at heart.

◗ OUR PAST

Local link to ferries OUR PAST

ARCHIE & DALE MILLER

his year is the 50th anniversary of B.C. Ferries. The fleet started in 1960 with the MV Tsawwassen and the MV Sidney, and two terminals at Tsawwassen and Swartz Bay. Personally we have used the ferry service since the beginning of its operation and continue to use that particular run on a regular basis, always enjoying the trip. One ferry with a local connection is the Queen of New Westminster. Actually this ship has two connections to our history. Having first sailed in 1964, she is one of the older vessels in service. We were on the Queen of New Westminster recently and noted a plaque mounted on a wall on the main deck. It states: “Presented to MV Queen of New Westminster, compliments of the Mayor and Council and citizens of the City

of New Westminster, The Royal City, B.C., commemorating the maiden voyage, July 1964.” Other dates on nearby plaques mark the phases of the ship as it aged, grew in size and continued to serve. One of those noted dates is 1973, when the ship underwent a conversion to increase space and carrying capacity. Part of the innovative process included actually lengthening the vessel by cutting the ship in half and sticking in a new mid-section. The plaques also note that in 1991 the vessel was completely refurbished and in 2008, completely upgraded. The second local city connection with the Queen of New Westminster, involves the conversion and enlargement in 1973. As noted previously, this process was quite innovative and drew a lot of attention, so it stood to reason that when the work was completed, something special was needed to promote what had taken place. What better way than to sail her into the town she was named after – New Westminster. For a couple of days, as

we remember, the Queen of New Westminster was moored at the dock on the local waterfront. Again, if memory is reasonably correct, there were tours of the ship as well as a special by-invitation-only gathering on board. The affair focused on the Queen of New Westminster and was wellattended by many government and senior officials and dignitaries. As the very new curator for the city looking after Irving House, the museum, archives and so on, Archie was invited to the event and was able to meet many people involved with the project. A special item was obtained that day for the city archives. After this very new and “green” curator had been introduced to then-premier Bill Bennett by thenmayor Muni Evers of New Westminster, he proceeded to relieve the premier, for archival purposes, of a telegram to which he had referred in his remarks. That telegram is probably still in the archives. Happy anniversary, B.C. Ferries – and smooth sailing, Queen of New Westminster.

Swim team more important than self

Sophomore starts SFU hoop team out right

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

ForAlexandraSchofield, winning the Burnaby district’s only gold medal at the B.C. high school swim championships took a second place to what it took to just get there. The17-year-oldBurnaby Mountain Secondary student and Simon Fraser Aquatics club swimmer expected to be on the podium following the open girls’ 100-metre butterfly final. Schofield took first place in the event in a winning time of 1:03.54, nearly two seconds ahead of the next fastest swimmer. She also made final swims in the open freestyle and backstroke races at the provincials held in Nanaimo, coming fourth and fifth, respectively. But perhaps more important to Schofield were the results of her two Mountain teammates Cristian Cristurean and David Pinksy. The two Grade 9 Mountain students made up the other half of the Mountain swim team. Cristurean made the consolation finals in the open boys’ freestyle and individual medley. Pinsky was a consolation finalist in the 100m breaststroke. It was with a school team in mind that Schofield undertook the job to organize the group in time for the provincials. “I really wanted there to be a high school swim team. I always thought it was ridiculous that we had a swim academy but no swim team.” Schofield decided to do something about it, but it took much longer than she

Now she’s determined to keep it going. had anticipated. “It wasn’t hard to get the swimmers on board, but it was harder to get the teachers. That was difficult,” Schofield said. She found, without the help of an in-school sponsor, getting information and the necessary forms from B.C. School Sports was also a bit stressful. She succeeded in getting all the paperwork done just one week before the actual provincial qualifying meet was to be held. Now that Schofield succeeded in creating a swim team at Mountain, she is not about to let it become a one-year wonder. Schofield recently committed to the Simon Fraser

Simon Fraser University women’s basketball team started the season with a pair of wins on the road in Oregon. Nayo Raincock-Ekunwe recorded a double-double in both games for the Clan. The sophomore forward posted 25 points and 13 rebounds in SFU’s 88-65 win over Southern Oregon University Nov. 20. A day earlier, RaincockEkunwe had a monster night, scoring 24 points, while adding 12 boards, seven steals, five assists and three blocks in a 75-69 win over the Warner Pacific College Knights. The Clan also got a solid outing from Anna Carolsfeld against Southern Oregon. Carolsfeld chipped in with 18 points and 11 rebounds, including six-ofseven from the floor and a perfect six-for-six at the charity stripe. In Portland, Kristina Collins finished the game with three three-pointers and 16 total points for SFU. New Westminster Secondary grad Kia Van Laare provided eight points in the win, including a pair of threes and two at the foul line. SFU is in Denver, Colorado this weekend against Western State and Metro State universities. The Clan men were not so lucky in their opener, losing 92-79 to Hawaii Pacific in Oregon Nov. 17. Ricky Berry led all SFU scorers with 29 points. Justin Brown added 17 for the Clan men.

BNW district teams seventh in Mainland volleyball BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

Seven proved an unlucky number for both the Burnaby North Vikings and Burnaby Central Wildcats quad A girls’ volleyball teams. Both North and Central finished the Lower Mainland AAAA volleyball championships in a tie for seventh place following defeats on the final day of the double-knockout provincial qualifying tournament at McRoberts Secondary in Richmond Saturday. The Vikings took West Vancouver to a tiebreaker in their

final game before dropping a 1225, 25-15, 15-9 decision to North Shore wild-card winner. Central, No. 3 finishers in Pool B, had its moments but eventually fell in straight sets to Point Grey 25-18, 25-17. The Wildcats drew even at 18-18 on a Xhalida September service run in the opening game but could get no closer. In the second set, Point Grey shook off a 7-7 deadlock with a mini six-point streak midway through the match. “They’re just young. That’s all it comes down to,” said Central head coach Sharon Snow. “It sets them up for next year. They’ll

think about this. They’ll get it next year.” Central moved into the championship round Saturday with a 2-1 upset over Pool D runner-up Kitsilano. North was equally unlucky. After a strong service streak from Lauryn Manson helped the Vikings build a seven-point lead. Grade 10 power hitter Layla Balooch finished off West Van with two service aces and a thundering kill. But the North Shore school elevated its game midway through the second set, outscoring the Vikes 13-3 to force the tiebreak. West Van moved on with a 15-9

deciding set. “The girls played really good in the first set. They played well, they just were not right where they needed to be. We didn’t challenge them enough,” said North coach Moyra Ditchfield. A win against West Van would have pitted North in a rematch with Pool C runner-up Gladstone. North, which had won Pool D in the Nov. 17 preliminaries, lost to Gladstone 2-0 in a controversial championship round match on the Saturday. “We lost a lot of traction (momentum) in that game,” Ditchfield said. “I would have

liked to play against (Gladstone) again.” Still, Ditchfield was happy with the players, who as a team were less than 100 per cent healthy. “This is the furthest that this group of seniors have gone in the Vancouver and Districts,” she said. Burnaby Mountain and wild card No. 2, New Westminster, also qualified for the Lower Mainlands. Both schools were eliminated on the second day of competition. Mountain fell to Point Grey 2-0, while New Westminster also lost in straight sets to Gladstone.

CAREER COACH Technology Careers

Last week was Technology Careers Week promoting careers in technology, science and engineering. Here are a couple of good websites to help you explore careers and job opportunities in technology. BC Work Futures for Trades & Technical Occupations: Gregg Taylor http://www.workfutures.bc.ca This is a relatively new and updated site with career information specific to BC (search ‘technology’or ‘trades’ in the “Search Profiles” box on the home page). There are dozens of profiles of trade and technical occupations. In these profiles you'll get a sense of what the work is like, where training is available and what employment prospects look like for these occupations in the immediate future. Applied Science Technologists & Technicians of BC’s TechWorks: http://techworks.asttbc.org/careerprofiles.html Check out the 23 career profiles on this association website. Recently updated profiles include: Biological Sciences Technology, Biomedical Engineering Technology, Building Design, Building Technology, Chemical Technology, Civil Technology, Construction Safety, Electrical Technology, Electronics Technology, Environmental Technology, Fire Protection, Forest Resources Technology, Gas & Petroleum Technology, Geomatics Technology, House & Property Inspection, Industrial Technology, Mechanical Technology, Metallurgical Technology, Mining Technology, Public Works Inspection, and Site Improvements Surveys. These websites provide information about growth careers in the technology sector. The challenge, of course, is knowing what career, job or sector is really the best fit for you. If you are unsure of your best career fit, call our office about career planning programs and services in your community. For help finding the work you love, call Transitions Career & Business Consultants, coordinators of The Transitions Program, a free 3 week career exploration program available to all unemployed people at 604-434-1177 or 604-681-2774

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: Intellectual pursuits have top priority. That includes cultural, far travel, educational, publishing, advertising, religious, philosophical and legal affairs. These might run into a couple of unexpected glitches or shocks early and deep into this week, so time your actions for Dec. 4 onward. Government agencies, or your own “background” might be involved. Dive into chores Sunday/Monday, so you’ll have more time when opportunities and exciting emotional prospects appear (Tuesday/Wednesday). Depths, mysteries, sex, other people’s money Friday/Saturday: you might hit a mother lode! Taurus April 20-May 20: Life’s mysteries, research, depth psychology, subconscious desires, lust, finances tied to other people (e.g., stocks, marriage finances, inheritances) rise in importance. These might be imperilled this week, especially if you began a related venture in November. You might need to take quick “crisis action” Thursday/Friday. Or, you could be free of any problems – if so, wait until Saturday onward to plunge into these areas, and/or to make a commitment, change your lifestyle, or invest. Work succeeds midweek. Friendships, loves (and everything listed above) are lucky Friday p.m.! Gemini May 21-June 20: Excitement! You could take major steps in a romance or more mature relationship now, or you might face and seize a huge opportunity such as relocation, a public appearance, a business negotiation/contract. But be aware: you might succeed, and the payment is stress. Or it all might blow up (Sunday-Tuesday a.m. or Thursday/Saturday) especially if this situation began in November. But if it blows up: so what? It clears away six years of tension, liberates you – laugh at life! Midweek’s romantic. Saturday begins, small but growing, the workable opportunities, attractions. Optimism arrives!

AUCTION CALENDAR

Cancer June 21-July 22: Emotionally, a rest period is over. Now you begin two months of intensified, active, communicating, sweet (and sometimes angry, or more likely, competitive) attraction. But don’t lose sight of your main necessity for the next three weeks: work and health. These two – and your dependents, and machinery – face one or two crises or dilemmas this week (Sunday-Tuesday and Thursday/Friday). Be very careful with electricity, computers, driving, tools, especially late week. A project might demand precise, tense attention to complete: give this, and succeed. Romance whispers Thursday/Friday! Leo July 23-Aug. 22: What seemed so romantically alluring in November might meet unexpected events or sexual reactions. Or, speculation and investment quality conflict; or creative urges, projects might trip over the realities that research discovers. Whatever went so brilliantly in November meets the unexpected by Thursday. Leo, whatever happens: 1) be ethical, honest; 2) be alert, realistic. These should show you the right way. Money needs care Sunday/ Monday. Communications, travel, life’s easy Tuesday/ Wednesday. Home, safety, take no chances Thursday! Friday heals. Saturday, love, success begin. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: I warned you some weeks ago that domestic, property, security and family projects (especially those initiated in November) might hit a shock or snag by this week. It could be a crisis, or simply a snag that needs ironing out. Be patient, diplomatic. Sunday/Monday your energy is high, but everyone seems independent, ready for an argument. Thursday/Friday communications, errands flow swiftly, but an unexpected event could capsize the apple cart. Drive carefully Friday dawn, avoid unsafe tools, avoid computers. Friday p.m., love/ friendship luck! After a hectic week, relax at home Saturday.

Children

Continues on next page ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The main emphasis lies on communications, paperwork, errands, travel, siblings and casual friends. These areas face one or two challenges this week, especially Sunday/Monday (philosophical or legal differences?) and Thursday/ Friday (romantic, creative conflicts?). In everything (communication, travel, etc.) your intention is all tied up with a partnership urge – but it is this urge that is really causing unexpected events or disagreements. Somehow, it (the urge to join or merge) is fighting the work you need to get done. By Friday p.m., the conflict’s over, and money luck flows! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Unexpected events could throw a monkey wrench into your money projects, particularly any projects you began in November, especially Sunday/Monday and Thursday/Friday. Do NOT purchase machinery or high tech items before Friday noon. The problem comes from your desire, hidden or not, to seek pleasure, romance, adventure or to take a gamble. You might face a choice: chase romance, or guard your money, gamble or keep your bank account, etc. Despite events, you’ll be optimistic, happy Sunday/Monday! Rest, contemplate mid-week. Your energy, charisma soar Thursday/Friday – this eve’s lucky! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Watch your temper – you’re riding a wave of energy, charisma, hope, loving emotions and creative, gambling pizzazz – but this could make you impatient, too, especially with parents/kids, domestic situations, real estate, security provisions. These have caused you stress and tension for seven years, and you’re at the fed-up stage! So there might be one last explosion, especially Sunday/ Monday or Thursday/Friday. Listen: be safe, but don’t repress your temper. Have a tantrum, then look for common ground. You’ll find it Friday eve, successfully start to implement it Saturday onward.

Nov. 28 - Dec. 4 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Messages, information (or distribution realities) might interfere with a plan that involved government, an institution, or a “retreat.” Protect yourself from gossip. Take care in writing, speech, driving and with electrical tools. The most “accident prone days are Sunday, Monday and Friday (morning). This is a time of rest, solitude, peace and contemplation – seek an environment that promotes these. That said, your social popularity begins to revive, and you grow more talkative, more interested in wisdom and learning. Complete obligations. Happiness, optimism visit Friday! Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: A conﬂict between your hopes and your “available cash” might reach a climax this week, especially Sunday/Monday and Thursday/ Friday. Well, reality is reality, you gotta work with what you have. Once you accept this, you can start achieving, and your hopes will rise. In general, your popularity is rising, light romance visits, and your money picture does keep getting better! Bosses, VIPs and parents favour you again, into January – take advantage (especially Friday!). Tackle governmentrelated chores now, as a slow-down will commence here soon. Love, Tuesday/Wednesday, Saturday! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Relationships need patience, gentleness early week. A temperamental boss, parent or VIP could act now, especially Sunday to Tuesday (argument) and Thursday/Friday (sudden action). Be alert, good-natured, diplomatic – deflect attacks. (A VIP’s motive? Perhaps a suspicion that you are money-hungry. Deeper, it’s a power struggle.) Wisdom, gentle love, and a travel, legal or educational project return, lasting to early January. These are lucky Friday p.m. Friends begin to appear. Still, your main December goal is career, ambition. Secrets, revelations, “major money” Tuesday/Wednesday. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
