“I feel like I have my life back. I am able to be more active … and life is much, much more enjoyable.” Lyle B., a LaserHealth™ Solutions patient

Laser Therapy has proven to be a fast and effective solution for a wide variety of soft tissue injuries, including whiplash, tendonitis, arthritis, plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff tears, ankle and knee sprains, sciatica, tennis and golfer’s elbow.

aria was taking pain medication for pain in her left elbow. The soreness kept her up at nights and prevented her from driving or even holding a cup of tea.

But after only five Laser Therapy treatments, she stopped taking all medication. By her tenth session, she was back to normal.

Maria’s story is not unusual for LaserHealth® Solutions, which provides Laser Therapy treatment in Surrey, Burnaby, Calgary, and Winnipeg Laser Therapy has proven to be a fast and effective solution to a wide variety of soft tissue injuries, including whiplash, tendonitis, arthritis, plantar fasciitis, rotator cuff injuries, ankle and knee sprains, sciatica, and tennis and golfer’s elbow.

This form of treatment doesn’t mask the pain of an injury. Rather, it treats the injury directly by acti-

vating biochemical energy and accelerating the healing process.

Laser Therapy works directly at the cellular level to help resolve inflammation quickly. The effectiveness of Laser Therapy varies from patient to patient, but after just a few weeks of treatment most patients report they are pain-free and have returned to their regular activities.

Ben K. injured his back in 1993 while helping a friend move a large desk down a flight of stairs.

He sought treatment from his family doctor and other specialists, but nothing helped eradicate the pain. When he first heard about Laser Therapy he was skeptical, he said: “The notion of lasers blasting away my pain seemed unreal.”

But after a few treatments of Laser Therapy, the pain had disappeared. Ben admits he’s not sure of how Laser Therapy works, “I just know it worked for me!”

So, how does Laser Therapy work? Skin, muscles, cartilage, ligaments and tendons absorb

the red and infrared light. This stimulates cells, increasing their metabolism and regenerating healthy tissue. Laser Therapy provides cells with more energy, resulting in the resolution of inflammation, reduced scar tissue formation, increased lymphatic drainage and improved vascular circulation. This is a non-invasive treatment, as there are no needles used in this treatment. As well, because this is Cold Laser technology, there is no cutting or burning.

The treatment is backed up by scientific research. Over 2,500 research studies that have been conducted on Laser Therapy.

World-renowned cellular biologist Dr. Mary Dyson has extensively published papers related to Laser Therapy research. She’s found that cells can increase their repair rate six to eight times when exposed to specific wavelengths of light.

Many professional athletes benefit from treatments at LaserHealth® Solutions.

“I’ve

never seen anything turn around that fast before in my life,” related B.C. Lions player Paul McCallum.

“I was quite happy. The trainer was quite surprised at the speed of the recovery. I would recommend the therapy to anybody that suffers a soft tissue injury.”

Maria and Ben’s stories are among 340 patient testimonials listed on the company’s website, .ca www.laserhealthsolutions.com.

The site also includes video demonstrations of patients receiving treatment and a more comprehensive explanation of Laser Therapy.

To find out if Laser Therapy is right for you, call the Surrey clinic at 604-575-1331 to book a consultation and assessment.

The effectiveness of Laser Therapy varies from patient to patient.

RCMP HQ now under construction

Federal Minister of Public Safety Vic Toews and treasury board president Stockwell Day are expected to attend the groundbreaking ceremony for the new RCMP E Division headquarters this morning, in Green Timbers.

The ceremony officially marks the beginning of construction. The new headquarters is expected to accommodate 2,700 RCMP personnel. It will replace the current headquarters on Heather Street in Vancouver, which is old and overcrowded.

❚SURREY

Residential construction boosts first quarter economic numbers Surrey recorded strong economic activity during the first quarter of 2010, according to a financial report presented to city council this week.

New residential construction is leading Surrey’s recovery.

The report showed the total value of new construction in Surrey for the first quarter of 2010 at $260 million, more than double the $1 million reported for the same period last year.

The city collected $10 million is development cost charges during the first quarter compared to just $4 million in the first quarter of 2009.

Dramatic increases were also reported in building permit revenues (nearly $2.5 million compared to $500,000 last year) and planning application fees (about $700,000 in 2010 compared to about $220,000 for the same period last year).

Surrey’s finance department expects to see building activity continue to increase during the

first half of the year, then taper off as interest rates rise and the HST takes effect.

Surrey has enjoyed higher than expected revenues during the first quarter with actual revenues coming in at $120 million compared to the $108million forecast in the city’s budget. That’s a $16-million increase over actual revenues for the first quarter of 2009.

On the other side of the ledger, city hall has also posted lower than expected expenditures during the first three months of this year.

The budget forecast expenditures of $102 million for the quarter, but the actual amount spent was $95 million, just $2 million more than the amount logged for 2009’s first quarter.

Surrey has an investment portfolio of more than $629 million that is earning about 4.2 per cent most which is committed to finance capital projects or operating expenses and is invested until needed. tcolley@thenownewspaper.com

A retired Surrey firefighter has won this year’s Surrey Good Citizen Award.

Acting Mayor Judy Villeneuve presented the award to Bill McNamara at the city’s volunteer recognition banquet May 5.

McNamara is active in the Surrey Lions Club, the Centre for Child Development and is a founding member of the Friends of Surrey Museum and Archives Society. He also cochaired the Surrey Seniors Games in 2001 and worked on B.C. World Police and Fire Games bid committee, Surrey’s Tourism Advisory Committee and the City Centre Spirit Party Committee.

And if that weren’t enough, McNamara leads a very active life.

In the 2009 World Police and Fire Games, he won two gold, two silver and two bronze medals. “Bill is known as an honourable, helpful, enthusiastic team player who is always looking for ways to give back to the community,” Villeneuve said.

Scam alert

Surrey Food Bank is warning the public about a scam artist going door-to-door with donation requests.

The food bank does not solicit funds or food in that way. “If someone approaches your home or business asking for food or funds on behalf of the Surrey Food Bank, please report this incident to police,” food bank officials said in an advisory Thursday.

❚ NEWS ❚THE COURTS

Murder case hinges on defendant’s words at the scene

Katherine Quinn’s Tom ZYTARUK fate hangs on phrases the Staff Reporter Crown can’t prove she uttered, the accused murderer’s lawyer Jim Millar charged.

Quinn, a 27-year-old mother of three, is being tried for second-degree murder in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster.

She is accused of urging her boyfriend Robert Forslund to kill 16-yearold Matthew Martins, on July 2, 2005.

The court heard Martins was walking

by Quinn’s house in Whalley when she jumped him for his gold chain and he

escaped after inflicting a minor wound on her with a pocketknife.

Forslund caught up with Martins at the Surrey SkyTrain station and beat him to death. He was convicted of second-degree murder in 2007.

During the trial the court heard that Quinn told Forslund, “If you love me you’ll get him,” and “You better kill him,” among other phrases.

During closing arguments Thursday Millar argued there is no evidence Forslund heard anything from Quinn. He also attacked the reliability of Crown witnesses

and accused one of “brazen” perjury.

The court has banned the naming of certain witnesses.

Millar said one witness who testified that Quinn said things to urge her boyfriend to kill Martins could only say she was “pretty sure” Quinn had uttered such words.

“It is a frightening thing when we’re talking about snippets in chaos,” Millar said. “What we’re dealing with is identification of a phrase in chaos.”

He argued that one witness’s claim Quinn said, “If you love me you’ll get him”

was inconsistent with three statements she made to police.

The murder scene was one of “intoxication and chaos,” he noted. At least one witness had described the beating as the most traumatic experience of her life.

“There was a great deal that was happening at the same time that might have distracted the witnesses,” Millar said.

This is Quinn’s second trial in the case.

Her murder conviction was overturned in 2007 by the B.C. Court of Appeal.

At press time the judge was expected to reserve her decision.

Vandalism leads to appeal for donations

❚IN BRIEF

Pedestrian overpass on the way

JDRF Telus Walk to Cure Diabetes at the Greater Vancouver Zoo in June.

The multi-family garage sale will run May 8 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 6467 Cabeldu Crescent in the Sunshine Hills area of North Delta with proceeds going toward the family’s $1,000 fundraising goal.

Construction has began on a pedestrian overpass that will link an extensive trail that runs from Annacis Island all the way to Boundary Bay. Part of the Delta South Surrey Greenway Trail, the 23.3-metre structure, which will cost more than $400,000, will be built over the Burlington Northern Santa Fe rail line between highways 10 and 99.

The cost of the project is being shared between the provincial and federal governments through the Canada-B.C. Municipal Rural Infrastructure Fund. The funding was announced in late 2007.

At the time, Mayor Lois Jackson said the trail, which uses existing water and sewer rights-of-way, provides alternate transportation for cyclists and pedestrians.

“It is a thread which runs through all our municipalities and connects the dots.”

—Jessica Kerr, Delta Optimist

New vaccine out next month

Children in B.C. will get a new and improved vaccine starting next month.

The routine childhood immunization program will include Prevnar 13, which offers protection against 13 strains of pneumococcal disease.

Prevnar 13 is the successor to Prevnar 7, the pneumococcal vaccine regularly administered since 2003. The new version protects against six additional types of bacteria that infect the blood, middle ear, the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord, and other parts of the body.

“Pneumococcal disease can cause serious and life-threatening infections, such as meningitis, so it only makes good public health sense for B.C. to make the move to Prevnar 13 and offer more complete protection against this disease,” said provincial health officer Dr. Perry Kendall.

Kids will receive three shot of pneumococcal vaccine, at ages two, four and 12 months old. Since the introduction of this vaccine, pneumococcal rates in children under five years old have dropped by more than 70 per cent.

In the past three years in B.C., 90 cases of invasive pneumococcal disease were reported in children under five years old.

—Carolyn Cooke

Yard sale helps diabetic boy, 6 Vandals laid a beating on the Burns Bog Nature Reserve recently, tearing up portions of the wood plank walkway, chucking rum and beer bottles and other garbage around, and defacing benches that were erected in the memory of loved ones. Last Sunday, volunteers repaired most of the damage, which ranged in the thousands of dollars. The boardwalk was originally built by volunteers and funded by grants, but mostly donations.

❚ SOUND OFF Eight long-stem roses, each representing one of her children, to our most beautiful 82-yearold mom. She always put our needs and interests first. Mom, you are truly a one of a kind gem.

Happy Mother’s Day. A dozen roses to the man and woman who dedicated a good chunk of their Saturday and a whole lot of elbow grease to cleaning up the glass and broken concrete blocks of the retaining wall at Crescent Park Elementary. The damage was caused by the car crash involving the mayor. The wall is now as good as new. Thanks for stepping up!

Bunches and bunches of red roses and congratulations to Luke and Jennifer on their engagement.

Tomatoes to the city – I hear people complaining about garbage dumped by the side of the road. I agree that it is

unsightly, disgusting and irresponsible to dump it. Have you ever tried to use the large-item pickup service offered by the City of Surrey? You call, put items out to the curb on your regularly scheduled garbage day as instructed – and they never pick them up! After hounding them repeatedly, maybe they’ll actually pick them up. Supervise your contractors, that we pay for City of Surrey!

Rotten tomatoes to all the sad, sick people who stood by and watched and did nothing when my son was attacked.

No one called 911, no one yelled for help. Do you realize that if you call 911, the wannabe gangsta losers aren’t going to get you? Are you stupid? What if that was your family member getting attacked? Would

you want someone to try to help? Wake up and think about other people besides yourself!

And rotten tomatoes to the police officer who showed no compassion in this situation. And rotten tomatoes to the wannabe gangsta losers – don’t worry you’ll go down in a hail of glory one day.

A freight train full of green, rotten tomatoes to the engineer who blew the train whistle eight times at 3:57 a.m., waited 10 seconds and blew it again another 13 times! Quite the power trip you’re on, you twit.

You’re the best. Happy Mother’s Day, Mommy.

Thank you for the great home-baked cookies. We love you.

Rotten tomatoes to the landscapers for removing several large trees in our neighbourhood without a permit. More rotten tomatoes to the family that hired them without obtaining a permit.

Shame on you!

Dozens of roses to everyone at Loving Stitch, formerly at the Dell Shopping Centre in Surrey. The doors are now closed after many years. This is heartbreaking for a lot of us here, but with so many people now buying online and not coming into the store, another small business has been forced to close.

The owner Saundra, and her staff – Eileen, Sheri and Betty Ann – are the most wonderful people.

Loving Stitch will be greatly missed. I love you gals!

❚ VIEWPOINT

CITY OF SURREY

❚COLUMN

I’m not negative – I’m realistic

OPEN HOUSE

PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING: GRANDVIEW HEIGHTS AREA #4 NEIGHBOURHOOD CONCEPT PLAN

As I sit in front of the computer ready to write this week’s column, my mind is all over the place. Where do I start?

Shall we discuss the HST? It got all the “aye’s” last week in Harvinder Victoria. Now we can SANDHU be happy or unhappy. It doesn’t matter to the provincial government which emotion you, the consumer, want to express, you are still paying extra for your basic needs.

To top that off, here is information on the latest study about the cost of living.

Living wage is the amount a couple, or person, needs to earn to raise a family with just the basic necessities.

To pay for the basics (food, shelter, etc.), the study found two people working full-time need to earn $18.17 per person.

(Last I heard, minimum wage is still $8 an hour.)

The study was done by the Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives and was focused on two-parent families raising two children in Metro Vancouver. There is no wiggle room in this budget for savings, a retirement plan or the children’s post-secondary education. If there is credit card debt, then you’re royally screwed as you will never get out of that cycle.

Oh, and add HST to your budget.

Well, that was depressing. Sorry, but I couldn’t sleep after hearing this and felt it needed to be shared.

Date:

Wednesday, May 12, 2010

Time:

5:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

Presentation at 6:30 p.m.

Place:

East Kensington Elementary School (Gymnasium) 2795 – 184 Street

So what else shall we talk about? Some happy thoughts, perhaps. Let’s talk about the weather.

It has been unseasonably cold these last few days. Suddenly it is too cold to be sitting out on the patio with a glass of wine with the cold arctic air nipping at you.

Where is the happy thought here, you ask? Well, at least we don’t have a blizzard to contend with like our Albertan neighbours had this week.

So, there is your happy thought. I guess we have to pay a much higher price for living here if we really want mild weather.

On to the next happy thought.

It is playoff season and the Canucks are playing great. Luongo is doing awesome.

Seems he finally found his groove.

Now the Canucks just need to keep up the pressure against the Hawks and show them last year’s series will not be a repeat.

Wouldn’t that be nice?

We need more happy thoughts and I really hope our overpaid hockey team can bring some excitement into our overworked, underpaid and overtaxed lives.

Yes, I may come across as a negative person, but to me, I’m realistic and that is OK. Sometimes always looking for positives in everything negative can be trying.

It is OK to say it sucks that just because we choose to live here in beautiful British Columbia we need to pay for it through the nose.

DELTA POLICE EXHIBITION Written by Elise Gray

Eye-opening exhibits and demonstrations including the RCMP Underwater Rescue Team and the Delta Police Truck Squad are on the docket for this year’s Delta Police Exhibition in support of National Police Week.

Delta’s Police Department, in collaboration with Scottsdale Centre, has organized a three-day exhibition running May 13 – 15 to raise awareness about the police’s role in public safety and security and to honour police of!cers. The exhibition is an opportunity for the community to learn about various police programs and local groups that contribute to public safety, as well as to take advantage of free resources made available during the event.

“You can’t just get a truck and put a trailer on it and go driving around,” said Renna McCready, general manager of Scottsdale Centre. “It could jackknife. [Planning this] has really opened my eyes.”

McCready is expecting the RCMP Underwater Rescue Squad and the Delta Police K-9 Division exhibits to be big hits too. “I think this is actually our best police week so far… Each year we’re getting better and better and we’re getting more enthusiasm from the exhibitors but it really is all about the Delta Police.”

Constable Cal Traversy, facilitator for the Delta Police Exhibition, hopes the event will strengthen the relationship between police and the community members they serve.

“Over the last year there’s been a lot of negative publicity toward the police so this is a positive thing for us in terms of showing them that we’re out there, that we’re approachable, that we’re able to take care of certain issues in the community at large and that we want to make these bonds and ties with the community a lot better.”

Other exhibits will include Child Find BC, which will be photographing and !ngerprinting children on-site, ICBC’s Crash Car, a self-defense demonstration from the Academy of Martial Arts and a free shredding service. Children will also have the opportunity to enter a drawing to be a constable for a day.

Delta’s Police Exhibition is being held at Scottsdale Centre on May 13 – 15 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. For more information on the times for particular services or exhibits, please visit www. scottsdalecentre.ca.

❚ URBAN SECRETS

Size mattered for Ocean Park post office in the 1920s

B

eing small was a Michael BOOTH big deal in Ocean Staff Reporter Park 85 years ago.

The tiny community boasted only a handful of year-round residents. The population swelled considerably during the summer months, thanks to vacationers from elsewhere in the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley.

Ocean Park’s claim to fame had nothing to do with the stunning views or the beaches located nearby at the base of steep cliffs. These features attracted summer visitors, but it was the hamlet’s post office that really put Ocean Park on the map.

Erected in 1923, the little shack originally measured six feet by six feet and, at 36 square feet, the dimensions made the Ocean Park structure the smallest post office in Canada/the British Empire/the world — depending on who was telling the tale.

Located at what is now the corner of

16th Avenue and 126A Street in South Surrey, the Ocean Park post office was featured in articles for Ripley’s Believe it of Not! as well as McLean’s magazine.

In her book Along the Way, local historian Margaret Lang Hastings describes the effect the building’s fame had on the sleepy community.

“From the time it opened for business, it’s size won it the distinction of being ‘the smallest post office in the world and its fame spread, especially after it was featured by Robert ‘Believe it or Not!’ Ripley, when requests for the (Ocean Park) postmark came from collectors all over Canada, United States and other distant places.”

The Ocean Park post office was originally open only during the summer months but later grew into a year-round operation as more people settled in the area.

In those years, the mail service was tied closely to the train system. In Ocean Park, that meant the local postmaster was required to hike roughly 500 metres down the escarpment and back each day to collect and deliver the mail.

“Until the 1950s, all of the mail went by train,” said historian Barrie Sanford, author of Railway by the Bay. “So someone had to go up and down the hill a couple of times a day with mailbags for the train. Every train had a mail car so you could send and receive mail with every train. Mail was delivered up to four times a day.”

In 1928, a six-foot extension was added

A 1930 photo from the White Rock Museum and Archives shows the Ocean Park post office — the smallest in the world, believe it or not — after an an extension doubled the building’s size. The structure’s miniscule dimensions brought the outlet worldwide fame. to the Ocean Park structure to accommodate individual post boxes. Several years later, a second extension added another four feet to the length of the building.

By the 1950s, mail service had changed significantly and there was no longer a need for the tiny building. The structure was moved to the Surrey Museum in Cloverdale. One report has the building used on the Cloverdale Fairgrounds for

several years before vandals damaged the structure. Rather than restore it, the city opted to dispose of it.

We want to know the secret spaces and places that make Surrey, White Rock and North Delta such a special place to live for you and your family.

Heed’s claim of ignorance hard to swallow T

his column was inspired by the misadventures of B.C.’s on again, off again solicitor general, Kash Heed, and it won’t be complimentary.

But before I start kicking the guy when he’s down, I Ted want to say this. Kash Heed COLLEY showed class by stepping aside – again – when the special prosecutor appointed to investigate suspected irregularities in Heed’s campaign financing revealed his law firm donated $1,000 to that same campaign.

Heed first resigned his cabinet post when the investigation began last month. Special prosecutor Terrence Robertson recommended charges against Heed’s campaign manager, financial agent and a third man, but did not recommend any against the minister himself.

On the strength of those findings, Premier Gordon Campbell reinstated Heed as solicitor general on Tuesday. Soon afterward, Robertson bailed on the prosecutor’s job and Wednesday morning, Heed, to his credit, did the right thing and stepped down once again.

OK, enough Mister Nice Guy.

❚COLUMN

The investigation involves a sleazy anti-NDP pamphlet distributed in Heed’s riding just days before last May’s election. He says he knew nothing about his underlings’ machinations, a claim some find hard to swallow.

Think about it. This pamphlet was a major tactical component of his election campaign.

It was designed to convince the riding’s Chinese voters the NDP would let criminals run rampant and would follow them to the grave to steal their hard-earned money through a death tax. It was supposed to scare the hell out of them and get Heed elected – and it worked.

But he could lose his seat if it’s proven that the cost of producing and distributing the pamphlet was a campaign contribution hidden from Elections BC when Heed’s boys filed their financial disclosure.

That’s serious stuff, but I’m supposed to believe that Heed’s campaign manager and his financial agent just decided to roll the dice with the boss’s future without running the plan by him first.

It has long been a source of wonder to me just how many critical – nay, career killing – political decisions are made by underlings

without reference to the guy (or gal) at the top who could really, really make life miserable for anyone who dropped the boss in the shyte.

I mean, how many times have you heard the Minister of Some Bloody Thing Or Another say, when he (or she) falls headlong into the political poop pit, “I knew nothing. Seriously, folks, this is the first I’ve heard of it.”

These people pass themselves off as leaders, the ones in charge until this kind of trouble raises its ugly head. Then they suddenly become essentially ventriloquist’s dummies with someone’s hand stuffed up their bums making their lips move.

“Who me? Didn’t see a thing, squire.

Honest.”

It seems to me that whether Heed knew about the smear pamphlet or not, he doesn’t come off looking good. It shakes out this way: Heed is either lying about what he knew, or too stupid to be trusted with an important cabinet post like solicitor general.

Either way, we deserve better.

❚ VIEWPOINT ❚COLUMN

Snowbirds fall victim to callous privatized health care Viewpoint

headed people, they make sure to have plenty of health insurance for when they’re down south. All well and good.

Then one day in late March Alex hit a rough patch. He hadn’t slept and wasn’t feeling well at all, and his wife had no idea what was wrong. Frustrated, she called their doctor back home who suggested perhaps they should go to a hospital to have it checked out.

Dawn needed some help in getting her husband to hospital, so she called 911 for an ambulance. The dispatcher sent a police officer to assess the situation.

That too was OK. As was the officer’s offer to drive Alex to hospital in the police car instead of tying up an ambulance.

Unfortunately, Dawn found out too late the officer was under contract to deliver patients to one particular hospital – and not the one she had requested.

Once there, Alex was taken to a room for tests – a number of medically unnecessary tests as it turned out. Dawn sat in the ER lobby, upset by the staff, who ignored the backlog of patients while making

macabre jokes about a suicidal depressed man, and chatting about TV shows and vacations.

Nine hours later, Alex was discharged in the middle of the night. He was diagnosed with a fairly minor problem the hospital staff decided not to treat, and sent off in a dehydrated, further sleep-deprived state with a prescription that couldn’t be filled for hours.

On the way to the front desk – without a wheelchair or attendant – Alex collapsed, falling hard on the marble floor.

Dawn was already angry at the lack of treatment for his initial condition, and she had been making a point of noting who did what.

It’s a good thing she did, as the head nurse’s initial response was that they’d do a CAT scan to make sure he was fine and send him on his way.

Sure enough, there were problems. A few days later he was medivaced home to a hospital in Fraser Health.

The hospital eventually accepted responsibility, but not before the ER sub-

mitted some $70,000 in bills while simultaneously denying to both the Canadian insurance company and its own hospital administration that he’d ever been a patient there.

One take-home message here is we must exercise extreme caution in going down the American path of re-envisioning medical care as a private business opportunity. If that hospital had been interested in this man as a patient instead of an insurance cash cow, he would have been treated and released – healthy and recovered – in 24 hours.

Sadly, he has long-term complications from the fall and is unlikely to ever be able to go home.

And for all you snowbirds and travellers, take a few minutes to do your research before you leave home and know where to get proper health-care treatment if you should need it. And then insist on it.

recently ran across a statistic: the CIA World Factbook places the U.S. at 46th in the world for total life expectancy.

Once that might have surprised me, but Carolyn now I’m beginning to COOKE see how a country that spends a truly shocking amount of money on health care – 16 per cent of its GDP – is failing to deliver on the “health” and “care” parts of that equation.

You see, friends of mine are the victim of one of those horrible situations you hope never actually happens to anyone you know.

Alex and Dawn, as we’ll call them, are a retired couple from Surrey who winter in Palm Springs every year, as do many Canadians. They’re a lovely pair – he’s a few years older than she is and has a charming European accent; she’s a business whiz who retired young, and comfortably.

Tour proves this is not your mother’s Surrey The Editor, Re: “First ‘Tour of Industry’ showcases Surrey to up-and-coming businesses,” the Now, April 30.

I would like to thank the Surrey Board of Trade and, in particular, Kwantlen’s Denny Hollick and Kassandra Linklater for a superb tour of Surrey.

I have been away from the Lower Mainland for 30 years (was an east-end kid from Vancouver who spent 30 years in the Okanagan Valley and have now retired to White Rock).

During my time in Kelowna, I spent some time on the Kelowna Airport Authority Board and also as chair of the Economic Development Commission of the Central Okanagan Regional District and have never experienced such a firstclass snapshot of a community as put on by these two Kwantlen students.

Surrey has indeed come a very long way during that time. I was on the board of directors of ICBC (the token Liberal on an NDP board) when we presented the concept of Central City University. We did not realize (I am sure that Bob Williams and Bing Thom did) what visionaries we were.

The Surrey of today is a bright, vibrant community with much promise and much opportunity ahead and I have to thank the Board of Trade for bringing it to our attention.

Kudos to city for new metal bylaw

The Editor, Re: “Bylaw aims to reduce metal theft,” the Now, May 4.

Will these attempts to reduce metal theft include hubcaps? I have had three stolen in the past few months — the last theft taking place at 2:15 p.m. on a Friday afternoon as my car sat in my driveway.

The cost to replace all three was $270.

Perhaps the scrap metal dealers could be encouraged to demand proper ID, etc. from young men selling hubcaps.

The Editor, Re: “Bylaw aims to reduce metal theft,” the Now, May 4.

The Surrey Board of Trade applauds and supports the efforts of the Surrey City council to reduce and prevent metal and wire theft in the city with its bylaw to regulate Surrey scrap metal dealers, in a similar manner to pawnbrokers and second-hand dealers.

For a number of years, the Surrey Board of Trade has received reports and complaints of metal theft ranging from the theft of metal cladding on buildings, awnings, signs and, of greatest concern, electrical and communication cables.

One board member caught a group of thieves, masquerading as a machine service crew, disassembling a forklift right on his mills premises – in broad daylight.

This problem has been a very expensive plague on businesses throughout the city, and in the industrial areas in particular throughout Surrey.

The Surrey Board of Trade has long advocated for, and strongly supported the city, in establishing the strongest possible measures within its jurisdiction.

Well done council.

They’re extreme, they’re flashy, they’re the Terminal City Rollergirls (TCRG).

It’s more girl-on-girl action than you typically see on wheels.

It’s a roller derby league that literally began over a plate of nachos and pitchers of beer in 2006. The whole thing was started by a group of women who wanted to introduce the athleticism and creativity of roller derby to the Metro Vancouver area.

The league is 100 per cent player-owned and operated. This means that every event, and everything to go along with it, has been organized and funded by its members.

Their goal is for roller derby to be watched and played like other mainstream sports, such as hockey.

Fast-forward to 2010 and the league now has 80 members, four teams and counting.

The teams are the Faster Pussy Cats, the Riot Girls, the Bad Reputations and the All-Stars, a collection of the league’s best players.

They recently started practising at Central City Arena in Surrey, the place formerly known as Stardust roller rink.

Surrey derby-er Melissa ‘IonA BeerWagon’ Walkley belongs to the Faster Pussycats.

By day she is Melissa Walkley; she works in management in a call centre that sells prescription medications. She’s also a student in community health care.

“At work I’m pretty professional. I’m in management so I have to be able to set standards and lead by example,” she said.

Currently “Skater of the Month” in the league, it’s said that her best quality is “awesome dance moves” and her worst quality is “breaking hearts and body parts.”

She said her favourite move is the can-opener, which sees her use her shoulder to hit a trailing opponent in the chest. She’s dropped quite a few girls with that one.

But her most recognized characteristic? Being a flirt, she said without hesitation.

“A lot of myself is portrayed,” she said of her persona on the track, “but I kind of get to push the limits a lot more than I would be able to in my day-to-day life.

“It’s like playing dress-up, but a little more hardcore.”

And there are other equally unique characters in the league, she explained.

“You’ll see people like Suzy Shameless. She’s a bit of a bigger girl, and she always writes on her belly.

She’ll lift up her shirt and smack her belly. Then you get Ring’er Bell: She’ll come out and she’ll have her cowbell.”

But at the same time, she added, there are timid girls with much more subdued personalities on the floor.

Practise time at Central City Arena in Whalley.

One example is Surrey derby-er Nicole Christiaens.

She’s a member of the TCRG but wasn’t drafted to a team this year. She was a referee in the league prior to trying out.

She’s on the other end of the spectrum.

Christiaens doesn’t really become a character. “I’m pretty much the same.

I just get to be a little bit louder,” she said.

In her work life, she spends her time cleaning houses. She has her own

Then she comes out at night talking, yelling and working up a sweat.

She said she had a hard time coming up with her league name, Nicoleon Dynamite.

❚ WHAT’S ON ❚ROLLER DERBY

“The handyman at work said to me, ‘How about Nikki Dynamite?’”

She thought it was dumb at first, but then someone else came up with Nicoleon Dynamite. Napoleon Dynamite is one of her favourite movies and she said she can relate to his character in the film.

“I’m pretty socially awkward: Pretty much just a nerd — so it totally suits me.”

While the derby league is about the characters and personas, it’s also about the sport.

Walkley can attest to that — she’s lost quite a bit of weight since joining the league.

Christiaens can, too. She said the fit-

ness is amazing. “It’s like having a personal trainer, but better.”

And naturally, there are a lot of bruises, scratches and injuries in this contact sport.

“But to derby girls, bruises and scratches are badges of honour,” said Walkley, a big grin on her face.

They just had their first “bout,” or game, of the season. The next one is on May 15 at the Minoru Arena in Richmond. That night, the Riot Girls will face-off against the Faster Pussy Cats. The arena is located a couple of blocks from the RichmondBrighouse Canada Line station.

For more information on the sport of roller derby, on the league itself and to find tickets to a bout, check out terminalcityrollergirls.com.

Is your child the next Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber or Miley Cyrus?

Then we want to HEAR THEM! Special Guest Judge for May 8 audition is Juno Award Winning Singer GREG SCZEBEL who will also perform LIVE!

ENTER TO BE A CONTESTANT IN THE...

So what is roller derby?

This league plays flat-track roller derby. The main difference from the traditional roller derby, as seen on TV in the 1970s, is obvious: they play on a flat track. Skaters race around an oval track in a full-contact sport on wheels. Each team has no more than five players on the floor at a time and there are three types of players.

There’s one “jammer.” They wear a helmet with a star on it. They are the only players who can score points and begin 20 feet behind “the pack.”

There’s one “pivot.” They wear a striped helmet. They start at the front of the pack.

They control the pace and are the last line of defence against the opposing jammer.

There are three “blockers.” They make up the rest of the pack. Their job is to help their jammer get through the pack and to keep the opposing jammer from getting past them.

There are many rules, but here are a few: Shoulder checks and hip checks are a go, but no blocking from behind. There’s no tripping or blocking while down, no sexual misconduct and no using elbows or forearms to block.

Anyone want to win this guy’s car?

When Greg Sczebel won a 2009 Nissan Cube for being such a creative Canadian, he wasn’t sure what to do with it. So he’s giving it Tom away to a lucky fan.

As part of the con- ZILLICH test, the Salmon Armbased singer/songwriter will drive the car to the winner’s home — anywhere in North America — hand over the keys and then play a concert there.

It’s a great promo, um, vehicle for Sczebel, a Juno-winning musician who is on a tour of shopping centres to spread word about Love & the Lack Thereof, his sophomore album.

This Saturday (May 8), he sets up for five 25-minute sets of music at Central City mall throughout the day, starting at 11 a.m.

Sczebel (pronouced “seh-bell”) scored the Cube from Nissan Canada for winning a contest designed to find Canada’s most creative people — 7,000 of whom entered, but few could top Sczebel’s quirky videos about the object of his affection (the car). For a chance to win the ride, enter at www.wingregscar.com.

Sczebel’s winning ways began in 2002, when he performed with star producer/musician David Foster as a winner of Foster’s B.C.-wide talent search. Since then, Sczebel has

earned some impressive hardware for his contemporary-Christian sounds, including a grand prize in the John Lennon International Songwriting Competition for his “Homeland” number, in 2008. If the face looks familiar, country fans may recognize Sczebel as keyboardist in Paul Brandt’s touring band.

While at Central City, Sczebel, 25, will be a celebrity judge of open auditions of BC Junior Talent Search, Saturday from 1 to 3 p.m. The fifth annual event is a big-stage showcase for talented kids between age seven and 18. Entry fee is $25. Registration forms for the open auditions are available at the Now office, #201-7889 132nd St., Surrey. For more details, call Margot Gauley at 604-572-0064.

Teens in City Jam finals tonight It’s spotlight time for those involved in City Jam, the yearly City of Surrey-staged event that celebrates up-and-coming musical talent.

The final round of competition finds the five finalists of the Youth category (age 13 to 18) on stage tonight (Friday) at Surrey Arts Centre. To date, bands and solo performers have been involved in a series of events that started March 26 at Fleetwood Community Centre.

“We had tons of amazing talent at this year’s City Jam competition,”

Greg Sczebel is a busy man at Central City on Saturday (May 8). reports Arielle Patterson, an organizer of the event. “We started out with 22 performers ranging from 10 to 18 years old, from all different musical genres.”

The Preteen category (10 to 13 years) winners are Nhemy Cepeda (vocal soloist, first place), Hanson Jaeho Kang (clarinet soloist, second) and Orbit (band, third).

Musical Joe at Beecher café

Meanwhile, one-time City Jam judge Joe Given has his name on a new album of acoustic-guitar pop songs called Sideways Point of View. The mop-topped Cloverdale teen’s mother, Janet, helped write some of the songs and also manages Joe’s career. Just 17 years old, he’s performed at some 270 events/ shows over the past few years. In a live setting, check out Joe Given next Wednesday night (May 12) at Beecher Street Café in the Crescent Beach area, from 7 to 10:30 p.m. Call 604-538-1964 to reserve a seat, or visit www.joegiven.com for more info about the musician.

Rodeo has taste of South Asia

Organizers of Cloverdale Rodeo and Country Fair say they’re “making history” by staging a South Asian Festival during the four-day event this month. The Desi Mela — or “rural/country folk fair” — is set for Sunday, May 23, and it’s designed to celebrate the multicul-

AND UP

tural makeup of Surrey and region.

The event will involve “a variety of Indo-Canadian music, dance and culture designed to appeal to families from all cultural backgrounds.”

Some of India’s most popular AList performers will converge on Cloverdale “to provide unparalleled entertainment that truly reflects the City of Surrey,” where 27 per cent of the population comprises people of South Asian heritage.

While South Asian entertainment is woven throughout the entire rodeo and fair, Sunday features the main lineup, which includes Bhangra-infused dance music and even some comedy. Those on the bill include Punjabi folk singer Taranampreet Kauris, Sukhdev Raj (aka Prince Sukhdev), comedy performer 4Lee Firoiz Shah, ManakEis and Gurminder Guri.

Don’t forget that 54-40 will rock the rodeo’s Longhorn Saloon on opening night, Thursday, May 20.

Tickets for that kickoff gig are $25 at ticketmaster.ca.

Musical salute at Holy Cross

Next Friday night’s concert at Holy Cross Regional High School will be a bittersweet affair. On one hand, the students will be celebrating the spring musical festival season with well-rehearsed sounds at the May 14 event; on the other, they’ll be saying goodbye to school principal Robert DeJulius, who is retiring after 28 years in the position.

“The evening will be dedicated to (DeJulius) as our music students thank him the best way they can for his 28 years of support,” school teacher Susan Sousa told the Now. Everyone is invited to enjoy the music of three concert bands, two jazz bands, one brass ensemble, one concert choir and one jazz choir led by “our awesome team of four music directors,” Sousa noted.

Tickets for tonight’s concert will be sold at the door — adults for $5, students and seniors $3, and kids five and under free. The school is at 16193 88th Ave.; call 604-581-3023 for more details.

Crossing over for Chessell

Pat Chessell is hoping to make the leap from bars to festivals, so he’s saying “goodbye” with a pair of fullband gigs at Dublin Crossing this weekend (Friday and Saturday).

“Saturday night will be our last night at the Crossing,” noted the Celtic-rocker, who lives not far from the lively Fraser Highway hangout.

“It was a hard decision for me to make, but business-wise I had to, in order to start pushing myself as a festival act and not a pub act, even though the D.C. is a great bar to play. We’ve invited a lot of friends and fans down on Saturday and are promoting it as our last night so it should be a great night!”

Celebration Includes: 25 minute ride with a full size Thomas the Tank Engine TM Meeting Sir Topham Hatt Storytelling, Live Music, Build with Mega Bloks TM and Much More!

This year features a longer train ride and on-board entertainment!

Detailed special features include a making-of featurette, including chats with producers (among them Sarah Ferguson and Martin Scorsese) and “Lavish History: Costumes and Locations,” which features chats about artistic licence and “torturing the form.” “The Coronation” is a chat with the slightly stuffy historical adviser for the film, “The Wedding” does likewise with writer Julian Fellowes, and we finally see Blunt, Friend, Bettany et al in “The Real Queen Victoria” extra.

Immerse yourself in musical theatre.

You might even make a few friends.

And you gotta know that in this business, networking and knowing people is at the top of the list. Remember, you have to apply by May 15. Get on with it.

Of course, not everyone who loves to perform in musical theatre chooses it as a career option. Check out next week’s column about Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society, which has provided a place for many amateurs to indulge their passion to sing, dance and act for nearly three decades.

Starting May 19, FVGSS sails into the Surrey Arts Centre’s studio theatre with HMS Pinafore. melminty@telus.net

registration details. Gee, had to get that HST in, didn’t we? Even with the extra tax, this intensive is a bargain.

You don’t have to be an accomplished triple-threater to apply for this program. As Jorgensen explains, the intensive goes even further: “We don’t just teach the notes of the song and the steps of the dance, we give our students the skills to understand, interpret and communicate the story.”

And yes, some of the grads from this program are now performing professionally. It’s a tough life, with small rewards for most, but if that’s what you want and need from life, there it is. “We aren’t just training performers, we are creating artists!” Jorgensen added.

Applicants for this program can’t come in totally raw, though. You must have any two of the following: Two

years of dance training, one year of private voice training, one year singing with a school or community choir (singing in the shower doesn’t count, apparently), one year of acting/drama classes and experience in a school/community musical theatre production. See, it’s not bad, as requirements go. My take on it is, if you haven’t done at least two of these requirements, you don’t have the passion or interest in pursuing a career at this time anyway.

But perhaps that passion is buried deep. You want it, but still have some shyness to overcome. Get rid of the shy part here and now. The intensive will help you in so many ways, as you receive one-on-one coaching with industry professionals. Yes, actual Equity types. If you don’t know what Equity is, start Googling. You will also learn audition techniques — big-time important. You will also perform solo

❚ WHAT’S ON ❚MOVIE REVIEW: Iron Man 2

Downey Jr. navigates around plot roadkill of sequel Directed by Jon Favreau. Starring Robert Downey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, Mickey Rourke and Scarlett Johannson.

My rating: 6 (out of 10)

ReelView

Moviegoers, start your engines. Those noisy, highly touted summer blockbusters have arrived.

First off the line is the sequel to Iron Man, the film that made Robert Julie Downey Jr. the most unlikely action hero since CRAWFORD Matt Damon.

In Iron Man 2, Downey Jr. returns as Tony Stark, Marvel’s slightly mad genius and self-ascribed dove of peace, thanks to his high-tech crime-fighting Iron Man suit.

“I’ve successfully privatized world peace,” he tells a U.S. senate committee, hell-bent on getting access to the suit so they can pimp it up for military purposes.

Since he came out at the end of the last film, Iron Man has become a PR gimmick, executing fly-ins in front of jiggly chorus girls at his own ideas expo. Tony calls himself a “human phoenix” and takes his own good press too seriously.

But while the bad guys might be years away from replicating the Iron Man technology, a guy without heat or hot water is onto something. Russian Ivan Vanko (Mickey Rourke) is the son of a nuclear physicist who was working with Stark Sr. but was booted to Siberia after he sold trade

Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark in Iron Man 2. secrets to the enemy.

And so, armed with his dad’s stolen blueprints and some technology from the Russian black market, Ivan starts to build an Iron Man suit to exact revenge. “If you make God bleed, people won’t believe in him,” says Ivan, and so follows a too-brief period where Iron Man falls out of public favour and Tony goes all Will SmithHancock on us, eating doughnuts in his

super suit. Old Stark footage ultimately provides both clues and closure for Tony.

Ivan’s not the only one gunning for Tony.

Fellow titan of industry Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell), his ego and libido bruised more than once by Stark’s success, seeks to outdo Tony and conquer the world while he’s at it.

Meanwhile Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) does damage control behind the scenes at Stark Industries and a new gal (Scarlett

Johannson), in 1940s pinup wardrobe, is even more than what she seems.

It’s entertaining, but not in its own right.

Iron Man 2 is a stepping stone to another sequel. There’s too much going on, such as senate hearings, the quest for a new power source, daddy issues, a new secret-agent group and a hastily tacked-on romance.

Things could, and should, have been culled before they hit the big screen.

Had you not seen the first film, you would wonder why army’s James “Rhodey” Rhodes (Don Cheadle, replacing Terrence Howard) is the only guy with access to Stark’s secret lair. Remind us: what’s the deal with Favreau’s character, and why did he venture off of the director’s chair?

And unless you read Marvel comics, you’ll be confused by the appearance of a new crew wearing spandex and eye-patches. In a shameless bit of cross-marketing, Marvel introduces the Avengers (Samuel L. Jackson and Johansson among them), and every scene in which they’re featured — including an entertaining ninja bit with Johansson — is extraneous to the plot at hand.

Saving the film from being all sound-splitting effects and plot roadkill is Downey Jr., who relishes every wisecrack and cheesy pun he is assigned by scriptwriter Justin Theroux, who also penned Tropic Thunder (which earned Downey Jr. an Oscar nod). Thankfully, we are spared the tormented introspection that plagues most superhero tales. Tony Stark is a rock star, an egocentric playboy, an attention-deficit genius, and he owns it.

Surrey’s new pesticide by-law takes effect May 2010

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

Pesticide use is no longer permitted for landscapes in single family residential areas or on city lands.

To view the bylaw and complete list of approved pesticides or for more information on pesticide alternatives visit www.surrey.ca/pesticidealternatives

• In general, pesticides may not be applied to trees, shrubs, grass and other landscape plants on single family residential properties or city lands.

• Pesticides are still allowed to be applied to structures, buildings and hard landscape surfaces such as pavers.

• Some pesticides with low toxicity such as dormant oil and soaps are still permitted for treatment of trees and shrubs.

• Serious pest infestations that involve significant damage to property may be treated by a provincially certified applicator. (Please refer to the bylaw for the definition of infestation)

WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT Reducing the use of pesticides in Surrey helps to protect residents, wildlife and

EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS WEEK

PERFECT TIME TO PREPARE FOR EMERGENCIES As recent events around the globe have shown, when disasters happen, it may be hours, days or even longer before help reaches you and your family.

Emergency Preparedness Week, May 2-8th, 2010, is a perfect opportunity for British Columbians to better prepare themselves and their families for emergencies.

Preparing for an emergency is something the whole family can do. Develop a family emergency plan, including a list of emergency phone numbers, and assemble an emergency kit with enough supplies for each family member for at least 72 hours.

Established in 1996, Emergency Preparedness Week is an annual, national event during the first full week of May. The main objective is to increase awareness about individual preparedness and reinforce the idea that individuals can reduce the risk and lessen the consequences of a disaster through better preparation.

For more information on preparing for emergencies visit www.sep.surrey.ca or visit www.pep.bc.ca

Heart and soul lifts Chiefs to title A healthy Michael BOOTH dose of heart Sports Editor and soul went a long way for the Fraser Valley Chiefs at the annual Abbotsford Invitational baseball tourney last weekend.

Mitch Dornblat drove in two runs in the top of the seventh inning to lift the Chiefs to a surprising 5-3 win over the Edmonton Prospects in Sunday’s title game.

The win marks the third time in the past 10 years the Chiefs have won the annual spring event.

“This is just fantastic,” said Chiefs coach Dennis Springenatic.

“It gives our team a lot of respect from other teams in the league and it showed a lot about this team. We may not have a lot of depth but we have a ton of heart. We didn’t give up and our guys all played hard. Everybody had a piece of this tournament championship; I don’t

think there’s one guy who didn’t contribute to us winning.”

The Chiefs looked anything but potential champions when they dropped their first game of the tourney 5-0 to the Langley Blaze Thursday. The Whalley boys bounced back the following day to beat the Victoria Eagles 4-2 and then carried that momentum into Saturday where they edged the Nanaimo Pirates 5-4 and dumped the Kelowna Cubs 6-2.

That left the Chiefs with a 31 record in round-robin play, good for second place in their pool behind the unbeaten Blaze.

Sunday’s playoff semifinals pitted the Chiefs in a crossover against the top team in the other pool, the host Abbotsford Cardinals. With Dale Mar pitching a shutout on the mound, Whalley grabbed an early lead and never looked back en route to a 9-0 thrashing of Abby.

“We scored a couple of runs in the first inning and basically didn’t stop,” Springenatic said. “It didn’t look like they came to play at all, almost like they were half asleep.

I thought they would at least give us a game because we didn’t really have much but we just kept scoring.

They kept giving us runs and the next thing you know it’s 9-0.”

In the other semifinal, the Blaze was doused 3-2 by Edmonton, leaving the Chiefs to face the Alberta squad in the final later Sunday.

After five games in three days, the Chiefs pitching depth was exhausted leaving Springenatic to patch together enough arms for limited innings long enough to complete the final. Caleb Lefebvre got the start followed by Alex Dunbar before catcher Brody Hawkins took the mound for the final two innings.

“We had to pitch by committee for the final,” Springenatic said.

“We couldn’t use anyone for the whole game because everybody had already pitched one game in the tournament.”

Whalley started well and built up a 3-1 lead only to have the Prospects rally with two runs in the bottom of the sixth to tie the game.

In their next at bat, the Chiefs had runners at second and third with one out when Dornblat belted a long double off the left-field wall to clear the bases and put the Chiefs ahead for good.

“We don’t have a lot of depth so that’s why everybody is so impressed with us,” Springenatic said. “They ask, ‘How did you win that?’ and the answer I give is, ‘I don’t know.’ We had good pitching and good defence and we had some breaks go our way. There was no pressure on us so our guys could go out there, stay loose and just play ball.”

❚PREMIER RUGBY

Capilano kicks Sharks from playoff picture

The Bayside Michael BOOTH Sharks season Sports Editor came to an end with a frustrating 45-27 loss to Capilano in Canadian Direct Insurance premier rugby playoff action on the North Shore Saturday.

Bayside dug themselves a huge hole early and Capilano used every trick in the book to ensure there would be no comeback by the South Surrey boys in the second half.

“The Capilanos are masters of shutting the game down once they are ahead,” said Bayside coach David Benoit. “Lets just call them the New Jersey Devils from back in the day. The game just becomes so slow and stagnant with whistle after whistle after whistle. They took 15 penalties to our five, which just

shows how they killed momentum of the game. We would put together a couple of good phases and boom, another penalty. Give them credit, they’re a good team and they beat us and they deserved it.”

Capilano opened the scoring with a converted try in the fifth minute only to have Bayside answer with a penalty kick from Chris Pack to cut the gap to 7-3. One minute later, however, Capilano struck for an unconverted try followed shortly by another converted major.

Brodie Henderson scored Bayside’s first try of the afternoon in the 22nd minute, a major that was converted by Pack. Capilano gave Bayside no opportunity to build on that as the hosts scored two more converted tries, offset by a Pack penalty kick, to push their lead to 33-12 at the halftime break.

“What they did was kick the ball a lot to create 50-50 balls,” Benoit said of the Caps’ tactics. “Their standoff had tons of time and he’s a smart player so he kicked the ball to our back three to put a lot of pressure on them. He forced them to run forward for the kicks into the pressure from their kick chase.

That made it hard to catch the balls on the run, so they became 50-50 balls and a lot of those didn’t go our way. They would catch them on the bounce and then they were off to the races. They scored a couple of tries like that and when you add in some missed tackles, that put us in a hole early.”

When play resumed in the second half, the veteran Caps were content to merely match the Sharks try for try over the final 40 minutes to salt away the win. Mark Irvine

scored a pair of tries for Bayside but between those scores Capilano punched in two of their own to keep Bayside at arm’s length.

“It was one of those days where we didn’t seem to be entirely switched on,” Benoit said. “We had several guys who were playing through injuries with broken toes or separated shoulders and what not but that’s not an excuse. It’s frustrating to battle hard to make the playoffs and then come up with one of our worst efforts in a month.

They’re good but if we play our best game we could beat them. We just had a bad day.”

Things did not go well for Bayside’s other teams in playoff action Saturday. The division 1 Sharks fell 31-25 to the Rowing Club while the thirds were edged 17-15 by Capilano.

In only her second season with the Clan, the Lord Tweedsmuir grad currently leads SFU with six home runs and 31 RBI on the season as Simon Fraser enters the 2010 AII Championship that began Thursday.

Riske was one of four SFU players also selected to the All-Conference team, alongside outfielder Brittany Mayers (Burnaby), first baseman Kelsey Haberl (Burnaby) and designated player Stefani Durrant (Richmond).

Kopcik was selected as a soloist and will also compete in duet with teammate Gabrielle Cardinal. Kopcik was also a member of the Canadian team in 2009.

Last year, the Junior National Team won four gold medals and one silver medal at the U.A.N.A. Pan-American Junior Championships in North Carolina.

May 9 - 15

Aries March 21 - April 19: Continue to chase money.You can start new projects lateTuesday onward, especially in earnings, possessions, rote learning and sensual gratification. You’re raring to go Sunday eve into Tuesday – your energy and charisma will surge upward. But this might be slightly too soon, unless you’re charging in to fix a past matter. (Still, take care Sunday – Monday’s far better. A hint: the matter you fix or correct involves your own past actions and/or a romance or creative project.) Communications or short trips succeed very nicely Friday/Saturday! A big chore will complete by late July.

Cancer June 21-July 22: Someone who cares about you will “come through” now (or did last week). Recent delays end Tuesday. Career or business ideas/urges that come to you early week will help solve an ongoing problem, but new ideas might fail – wait for June’s inspiration.Your hopes and popularity soar Wednesday/ Thursday – happiness blesses you! A new friendship or love might begin, but if it starts Wednesday, it has money and status difficulties. Retreat, rest and contemplate Friday/Saturday. This summer will bring huge new career/status and domestic events: reading, talking now will “prepare” you.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Partnership urges find fertile ground Sunday to Tuesday – but it’s uncertain whether a relationship formed would last, or fall prey to future indecision. If you take a consequential step Wednesday or before mid-morning Thursday, it could prevent partnership, marriage or a contractual agreement. After this, all’s good. Recent delays end Tuesday, especially in legal, valuation, investment, sexual, commitment, health and lifestyle areas. You might make a decision you’ve been mulling over for a long time. Foreign travel, law, education, publishing, culture arise late week – love, too!

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Romance, creativity, a general “lucky touch” – these continue all week – and even better, the delays and indecision that have marked this area end now (technically, Tuesday afternoon). A new romance (creative project, etc.) might begin now, perhaps mid-week – one that starts after Thursday morning is better than one that begins earlier. Sunday morning’s happy, but use this eve through Tuesday to rest, gather your energies – and to work on security or domestic problems – Monday might bring a big solution here!

Intimacy, commitment, an investment might lure you Friday/Saturday: careful!

Taurus April 20-May 20: Your energy and magnetism remain high and now, at last, you can apply them to forward-going projects. Rest and think Sunday eve through Tuesday. Think especially about property, family and security matters – you might gain an insight Monday (or as you wake Tuesday morn) into solving a problem or friction in these zones. (Solutions will “take effect” in four weeks.) Wednesday onward, contemplate no longer – act! Love, partners, cooperators respond well Wednesday morning. Use the p.m. to prune or “edit” extraneous material. Chase money Friday/Saturday – keep it short term.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Recent delays end in career and business areas, although they remain in legal, international and intellectual zones. (Sunday-Tuesday shows this.) The courage, the impulsiveness, and the anger – and the sensual magnetism – you’ve possessed since last autumn will dissipate soon (early June) so if you’re going to make war or love, better hurry! By June, you’ll morph into a mere reasonable, money-hungry mortal. Be ambitious Wednesday/ Thursday – in an odd way, ambition is your salvation now. Happiness comes Friday/Saturday – flirtations, friends arrive. Hopes are prescient.

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Tackle old chores Sunday eve to Tuesday. This is your opportunity to really clean up an ongoing mess in your life, especially Monday.

Relationships remain your primary concern all week – delays and indecision end here now. However, if you charge into a new bond (or sign a contract, etc.) before Thursday noon, it could interfere with your work or health. Act after this. Mysteries, secrets, research, the occult, deep attractions, intimacy, heavy finances, debts and investments arise Friday/Saturday. All’s smooth here, but the long-range future could hold a disappointment: be slow to commit!

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Early this week, a talk or e-mail can solve a long-standing “war” with another – Monday especially, all day! If there is no enemy, or no competitive struggle, then there might be a long-standing attraction. Again, Monday’s communication benefits this!

Recent delays end Tuesday, especially in home, security, realty and similar zones. (But be patient: act after Thursday morning, not before.) Rest, recuperate, Wednesday/ Thursday. Your mood lifts mildly Friday/Saturday as you begin to notice beauty, begin to sense romance. But be a bit skeptical of romance, until late July.

Gemini May 21-June 20: You can see how the future intertwines with your past, Sunday to Tuesday.

Many Geminis are virtual hermits now, after more than a decade of relationship struggles. You might as well remain one, for 2010 favours career and business advancement, and your best relationships will be with bosses, VIPs, kids and parents. You’ll get a wee shot of flirty happiness June to September, then the oyster of love clams up on you again. In 2011, January to June, your popularity and optimism will soar, and light romance will please! For now, remain hopeful yet skeptical. You’ll succeed late week!

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Delays end Tuesday, especially in intellectual, educational, publishing, legal, cultural, travel and love zones. A sexual attraction (which might arise early week) is a thing of your past, not your future. The same might be said of an investment or large financial action. Either act decisively Monday, or let it go. Those intellectual, educational (et al) things arise very successfully Wednesday/Thursday, as long as you aren’t sporting an Achilles heel – e.g., have something to hide, or are carrying around a crime like a leather bag of rocks. Be ambitious Friday/Saturday.

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Romantic, speculative (gambling) and creative urges arrive Sunday eve through Tuesday – enjoy the beauty, and Monday’s sweet success! Tackle chores all week, especially Wednesday/Thursday. Soon (late next week) you’ll enter an opportunity-laden time – you’ll need to be “light” then, not weighed down by unfinished business, tasks, etc. Relationships flow smoothly enough Friday/Saturday, but it’s not a good time (actually, not good right to late July) to commit to a long-term bond, marry, form a partnership, etc. It’s a fine time to make a work-money agreement, though.

Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: You can take a bold, successful money-work step – or solve an important money-work problem – early week (especially Monday).

It somehow involves the last six or seven months. Delays and indecision end in communications and travel matters mid-week.A new travel, paperwork, mail or e-mail project could begin now – Thursday’s best (after 9 a.m. PDT, after noon EDT). Settle into home, family, a restful stance Friday/Saturday – all’s fine, it’s a good time for gardening, etc. But don’t take on or start big things (renovations, buying a home, etc.) before late July – disappointment lurks in these. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014

Engine size vs efficiency

Did you know that advancements in engine technology over the past 20 years mean you don’t have to sacrifice power for fuel economy? In fact, you might say “small is the new big” when it comes to the relationship between engine size and fuel consumption.

Here is how the whole thing works: The size of an engine can affect its peak power output and fuel consumption. Engine size is measured by the total volume displaced by the pistons in the cylinders as they move from their furthest point up to their furthest point down.

In general, the larger the engine and the more cylinders it has, the greater its fuel consumption. Smaller engines tend to operate closer to their optimal efficiency levels under typical driving conditions, meaning more of the energy from the fuel is converted into work at the

crankshaft.

So what does this all mean to you the driver and you the vehicle buyer? You don’t have to buy the biggest, most powerful vehicle on the lot to get the performance you desire. www.newscanada.com
