❚LOTTERY
Surrey resident wins cool $675K
Ted COLLEY Staff Reporter
SURREY – Additions to six Surrey elementary schools and the installation of modular classrooms at 20 more will add 58 new classrooms to the district’s inventory to accommodate full-day kindergarten. The announcement was made Monday morning when Premier Gordon Campbell and Education Minister Margaret MacDiarmid visited Cloverdale’s A. J. McLellan Elementary. Health Minister Kevin Falcon and Surrey MLAs Dave Hayer and Stephanie Cadieux also attended. Eight of those new classrooms will be housed in an addition to A. J. McLellan. Lisa Reid and Melissa Beechey are members of the school’s parent advisory council. Both applauded the province’s move. “We’re very happy about this,” Beechey said. “We wrote a lot of letters (to the government) last year, maybe 1,000. We had a big letter-writing campaign where we got the parents to write.” Surrey school district secretary-treasurer Wayne Noye echoed their pleasure.

SURREY – They say it’s impolite to scratch in public, but Surrey’s Jeremy Pike is glad he did. Pike, 52, won a cool $675,000 Saturday on a Set For Life scratch-and-win lottery ticket. “I bought it at a little gas station at 108th and Oriole. It was one of the last two tickets he had in the store,” the happy winner said Monday from the BC Lottery JEREMY PIKE Corporation Richmond office where he picked up his cheque. “I bought both of them. That was Saturday and I’ve been thinking about what I’m going to do ever since. It’s been a sleepless weekend.” Pike, who is married and has one son, said he plans to keep working, but is about to become selfemployed. “I’m a truck driver. I haul general freight to Alberta. I’m going to buy my own truck. It’ll cost $130,000 to $150,000 for the truck, but it’ll be paid for.” As for the rest of his winnings, Pike said the money will come in handy when the time comes for him to retire. Winning that kind of money, he said, takes the pressure off. “It feels terrific.” tcolley@thenow newspaper.com

Crash kills man, 59 SURREY – A 59-yearold Surrey man died in Vancouver Saturday when his car crossed the centre line of the 4900-block of Oak Street and crashed head-on with another vehicle. A 51-year-old female passenger in the man’s car suffered minor injuries, while the woman driver of the other car, also in her 50s, was hospitalized with serious, but not life-threatening, injuries. Vancouver police say neither alcohol nor speed appear to be factors in the accident and ask any witnesses to call 604-7173012.

INDIAN AUTHOR VISITS SURREY; SEEKS JUSTICE FOR 1984 VICTIMS Manoj Mitta, a senior editor with the ‘Times of India,’ talks to reporter Tom Zytaruk in the ‘Now’s’ boardroom on Thursday.
Four hurt in crash SURREY – RCMP investigators are seeking witnesses to a single-vehicle accident in the 5900-block of 152nd Street around 7:20 p.m., Saturday. Police say the vehicle was northbound on 152nd when it veered off the road and collided with a tree. A witness told the Now that one of the occupants was ejected into a nearby front yard by the impact and two others were trapped in the mangled wreckage. All four men in the car suffered serious injuries. Two were airlifted to hospital, while the other two were transported by ambulance. While the investigation continues, police say alcohol, speed and aggressive driving all appear to have played a part in the collision. Any witnesses who have not already spoken to police should call Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.
Safety drive kicks off SURREY – Mounties and firefighters will be knocking on Newton doors Thursday evening to kick off Surrey’s Safer Summer campaign. The campaign is run in co-operation with the City of Surrey and the Surrey Crime Prevention Society. More than 80 emergency personnel will blitz the area informing residents of steps they can take to ensure the safety and security of their homes during the warm summer months when people are more likely to leave doors and windows unlocked. Police say they see a seasonal increase in burglaries in summertime when thieves often enter homes through unlocked doors and windows. – Ted Colley

SURREY – A heavy hitter Tom ZYTARUK in the Indian media was in Staff Reporter Surrey Friday night to cap off his Canadian tour in a quest for justice for 2,733 Sikhs who were massacred in Delhi in 1984. Manoj Mitta, a senior editor with the Times of India, was invited by the World Sikh Organization to discuss a book he co-authored with Indian lawyer H.S. Phoolka concerning the massacre. His speaking engagement was at the Grand Taj Banquet Hall in Newton. Mitta, who is not Sikh himself, specializes in legal and public policy issues at the Times, which has a circulation of roughly 10 million and is considered to be the largest circulated English-language newspaper in the world. His book is called When a tree shook Delhi: The 1984 Carnage and its Aftermath. Since its publication two years ago, Mitta has addressed both the British and Canadian parliaments on the subject. His passion is evident. “The sheer gravity of what happened,” he started, cried out for such a book. “Even as we speak, none of the political leaders complicit in this carnage have so far been convicted. None of the police officials who allowed this carnage to take place on
their watch have so far been convicted.” And that’s despite some 10 official inquiries to date, he noted. Mitta says his book has “presented the big picture – something the state is unwilling to do.” It explores the 1984 anti-Sikh riots in Delhi, and their aftermath. The carnage lasted for three days, after Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi was assassinated by two of her Sikh bodyguards in retaliation for Operation Bluestar, in which Gandhi ordered the Indian army to attack Sikh militants in the Golden Temple in Amritsar. The violence ended with Ghandi’s cremation. Later, her son remarked of the events, “When a big tree falls, the earth is bound to shake.” This, of course, provided the name for Mitta’s book. “The book is essentially about impunity,” he explained. “We (India) came to be the world’s largest democracy and this is a test case of commitment to the rule of law. Something of this magnitude could take place in the capital of our country and we have no justice to show for it. None of the culprits, perpetrators, have so far been convicted. So, how did that happen? What led to this kind of impunity?” “There is a lot of emotion in the minds of people that the thing happened, but they never
had facts, they never had the actual details, and this book served that purpose, filled that very important gap. There was a need for people to be armed with information. “It was also meant to serve the purpose of helping break this pattern of sectarian violence that is there in India,” said Mitta who wants to see a museum built in Delhi to commemorate the massacre. “The fact that the culprits of ‘84 got away provoked further rounds of sectarian violence in ‘92, 2002, 2008. Other communities were affected – Muslims and Christians in the last instance. We believe had they done justice in ‘84, perhaps these subsequent rounds of violence would not have happened.” As for the killings in 1984, he said, “for three days it was all happening as if it was to a plan. People have very little idea of how something of this magnitude could have happened right in the capital.” Despite an apology issued in 2005 by Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh – who is, notably, a Sikh – Mitta contends the Indian government still “has not rendered justice” to the victims and remains in a “denial mode.” “They are not observing the 25th anniversary of the massacre, they are only observing Indira Ghandi’s assassination.”
It was murder, but police still mum on cause of woman’s death SURREY – Police have determined that a woman whose body was found amid some bushes in Whalley early Wednesday morning was murdered. But they’re not saying how she died. They’re still trying to figure out who she was. “We have a couple of strong indicators as to the woman’s identity however it’s not yet con-
firmed,” said Cpl. Dale Carr, spokesman for the Integrated Homicide Investigation Team. The victim is described as mulatto, in her early 40s. A passerby called police at 6:10 a.m. Wednesday after spotting her body from the roadside, on 104A Avenue just east of King George Boulevard.
Police ask anyone who many have seen something “out of the ordinary” from early Tuesday evening to early Wednesday morning, in the area of 104A Avenue between King George Boulevard and Whalley Boulevard, to call the IHIT tip line at 1-877-551-IHIT or CrimeStoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. – Tom Zytaruk

School additions ‘bang on’ but more work needs to be done continued from page 1
Premier Gordon Campbell speaks at A.J. McLellan Elementary to announce funding for full-day kindergarten throughout B.C., including six schools in Surrey.
“That’s bang on, it’s what we were hoping for,” Noye said as he looked over the list of improvements coming to Surrey schools. School board chair Laurae McNally said Monday’s announcement was a step in the right direction for Surrey, but added there’s more that needs to be done by Victoria to ease the district’s financial woes. Unlike most B.C. school districts, Surrey continues to grow at a furious pace. During her remarks on Monday, MacDiarmid recognized Surrey’s situation when she told the gathered students, par-

ents and media this is B.C.’s “fastest growing district, far and away.” That growth has created problems for district administrators, McNally said. “I want to remind her that we have unique needs in this district. We have concerns regarding paying for portables out of operating funds and the inequities in CommLINK funding,” she said. “We are on track for full-day kindergarten, the others are works in progress.” Victoria will spend $144 million for 665 new full-day kindergarten classrooms by September 2011 when the program reaches full implementation. tcolley@thenownewspaper.com

❚ NEWS ❚HEALTH/Surrey Memorial Foundation raises money for equipment to fill new neonatal unit
Young donor gives half of his birthday money to help hospital On Friday Carolyn afternoon, Joshua COOKE Staff Reporter Hawthorne visited Surrey Memorial Hospital – the place where he spent his first five weeks of life. And while he was there, he presented his former nurse with half of the money he had been given for his fourth birthday, for which the neonatal unit gave him a thank-you plaque in return. When Joshua’s parents, Dan and Kristjana Hawthorne, learned of a friend who was going to donate half of their birthday money to charity, they liked the

idea. “When we talked about it,” said Dan, “we knew where the money would go.” Joshua was born at 33 weeks in an emergency C-section because Kristjana’s blood pressure was so worryingly high. This sort of specialized care requires state-of-the-art equipment, which is quite expensive. For example, each new OmniBed Incubator has a price tag of $65,000. The Surrey Memorial Hospital Foundation has bought eight of these specialized beds, and Fraser Health has provided others,
bringing the unit’s total up to 14. That isn’t quite enough though as the neonatal unit is due to expand into a 48-bed unit by the time the new critical care tower opens in 2014. Since January, the department has grown to 24 beds, split into two locations in the Children’s Health Centre. Cathy Massey, manager of the NICU, said they are in the midst of raising money for Alaris Intravenous Pumps, at $16,500 each, as well as outfitting the new breastfeeding room with flat screen TVs and educational videos.

❚ NEWS ❚DELTA
Pit bulls may get break, thanks to research on aggression Enacted in the early 1990s, the bylaw requires pit bulls to be leashed and muzzled when outside or kept in a roofed enclosure with a wooden or concrete floor. Even pit bulls with no history of viciousness fall under the bylaw. At a recent Delta council workshop, civic politicians were told research by staff hasn’t been able to locate any studies that found a specific list of dogs are more genetically prone to fight or kill other animals or people. A report by CAO George Harvie said it appears animal
behaviour is determined by both genetic and environmental factors. Some of those factors include the owner’s maturity level and ability to meet necessary time commitments of dog ownership. Other factors include whether a dog is spayed or neutered. The report noted, “If council wishes, staff could remove pit bulls from the definition of ‘aggressive dog’ and replace it with ‘is owned or harboured for the purpose of dog fighting and/ or trained for dog fighting.’ This would also require the removal of
the definition of pit bull.” The report states that if council wants to continue with the breedspecific approach of labeling pit bulls as aggressive, it might also want to include other breeds. Coun. Robert Campbell said, however, there’s no evidence to suggest any breed is significantly more dangerous. “We’re looking at putting the burden on the owners to be responsible, to be educated and they’re the ones who create, or not, an aggressive or dangerous animal,” he said.

Red Scorpion leader Jamie Bacon has been kept in conditions “which would be deplorable in any uncivilized society and are certainly unworthy of ours” while in Surrey Pre-Trial custody. Bacon is one of four men charged with first-degree murder in the October 2007 Surrey Six killings. Six men, including two innocent bystanders, were murdered in a Whalley apartment. Police say the killings were part of a gang war over drug turf. B.C. Supreme Court Justice Mark McEwan found Bacon was inhumanely kept in solitary confinement, denied reasonable access to his lawyer and had his
phone and visitation privileges severely restricted without justification. McEwan also found Surrey Pre-Trial warden Debbie Hawbolt unreasonably monitored Bacon’s mail and passed it on to police without authorization and that she used her powers to improperly assist the police in their investigations. – Ted Colley

❚POLITICS
The one consistent factor that distinguished the B.C. Liberal government from its two predecessors Keith has been shatBALDREY tered with the bolt-from-theblue resignation of Blair Lekstrom from the government caucus. From 1986 to 1991, B.C. was governed by political parties that found themselves mired in internal problems that eventually boiled over into public view. The result for both the Social Credit and the New Democratic Party administrations was eventual total collapse. Both parties took out their own leaders. Bill Vander Zalm, Mike Harcourt and, to a lesser degree Glen Clark, all had to step aside prematurely as their own people broke ranks with their leadership. But this long-running narrative suddenly changed with the election of Gordon Campbell and the B.C. Liberals in 2001. For the past nine years, the administration has been able to hold itself together through scandal and controversy with little evidence of internal dissent. Some high-profile people (Carole Taylor, Christy Clark and Gary Collins being the most notable) left the government, but their departures were not attached to any publicly voiced displeasure about policies or leadership. But Lekstrom’s sudden resignation changes things. For the first time, a credible member of the B.C. Liberals has parted ways publicly with his party and his leader (Lekstrom once voted against a government bill that tore up a health union’s collective agreement, but that’s small potatoes
InTheHouse
ViewPoint
now
Unified Liberal party is no more
compared to quitting the caucus). The question now: Will anyone else from the caucus follow his lead? Will any other Liberal MLA opt out of what appears, for now at least, a car heading over a cliff? Lekstrom’s motivations for his resignation have been questioned. He says he’s leaving over how the HST has been handled, insisting the government should pull back from implementing it and embark on a six-month consultation process. But some think he’s really preparing to run federally for the Conservatives in the next election, or is even thinking of heading up a third provincial party. He’s neatly disassociated himself from the dreaded HST (even though he voted to repeal the provincial sales tax, which clears the decks for bringing in the HST), which should help his political future. But whatever his reasons, Lekstrom’s move has thrust the very real grumbling within government into the public spotlight. New Democrats and their antiHST allies are salivating at what they see as an eventual avalanche of dissent, as one Liberal MLA after another bolts from their leader. But I wonder how many will actually take the giant step that Lekstrom has taken. For one thing, quitting a caucus consigns an MLA
to near-oblivion status. And leaving the caucus may not ensure an MLA is still electable in 2013, just because he or she has broken ranks with the HST. However, we are in uncharted waters right now. Trying to predict the political future of government MLAs is a fool’s errand these days. What is really unknown is the depth of loyalty certain newly elected MLAs have to Campbell and the B.C. Liberal brand. These are the people to keep an eye on. Rookie B.C. Liberal MLAs such as John Slater, Pat Pimm, Terry Lake, Eric Foster, Donna Barnett and Don McRae appear to be most vulnerable to successful recall campaigns. For the most part, they represent rural ridings that encompass regions that once voted for the old federal Reform Party in large numbers and are particularly incensed over the HST. It is these MLAs who will feel the most pressure in the weeks ahead, and if they are staring down the barrel at recall or certain defeat in 2013, they may take a walk from the caucus. If just two of them quit, they could join Lekstrom and fellow independent MLA Vicki Huntington and gain official party status in the legislature. That could provide the basis on which to build a credible third-party alterna-
tive in this province. But I wouldn’t bet the farm on anyone else leaving just yet. There’s going to be a lot of handholding occurring in the B.C. Liberal caucus in the weeks ahead, as the premier and senior cabinet ministers try to calm the waters and implore everyone to stick together. They will all be watched closely over the summer. Lekstrom has opened the door to a path that could see the government fall apart, or he has simply consigned himself to the lonely life of an independent MLA. Either way, the days of a concrete unified front appear to be over for the B.C. Liberals. Keith Baldrey is chief political reporter for Global BC. KBaldrey@globaltv.com

Surrey gets short end of transportation stick
Alex Sangha Delta
Tax breaks are cheap ploys The Editor, Our income tax breaks to lowincome people are cheap political
ploys to win votes. These twobit tax breaks are to assuage the naïve while benefiting the rich. It complicates an otherwise simple tax return to the point of ridicule. The government tax department also made a $1,400 mistake on my return. I protested repeatedly. The big income tax accountants want $70 for 15 minutes work. That works out to $280 per hour. So I went to an independent tax guru. With his help and some perseverance on my part, the CRA changed their $900 demand from me to a refund of $479. If I hadn’t squawked, I would have been out by almost $1,400. I’m a mere 64 years old, but I wonder how many other frustrated people my age and older are being ripped off by the government through attrition.

Insurance cash is ours The Editor, The latest news that our provincial government took $800 million of our ICBC insurance premiums, as they have done in previous years, can only be classified as two things. It is either another new hidden tax we will have to pay for insuring our vehicles, or it is just plain theft. Our insurance premiums are to pay for accident claims and are not to be put in general revenue to be wasted on the many programs I do not agree with.
Again, it shows their blatant lies that for years they had to raise our premiums because of an increase in accidents. Hopefully, many others will join me to express their disgust about this money grab and the above money should be used to reduce our ridiculously high rates – especially for those who have had no accidents for years.
Pieter Spierenburg Surrey
HST means NDP government The Editor, Governments are elected to represent the people. Having said that, it is foolish to believe every decision they make will be popular, even with those who voted them into power. There are times when governments must make hard decisions and sometimes those decisions may cost an MLA re-election. For this reason, at least in my observation, such decisions are usually made in the early part of a government’s mandate. The B.C. Liberal party reversed its position on the HST within weeks of re-election. Call it what you may, but an election promise was broken. Is the HST likely a “good tax?” My personal belief is there are likely longer-term benefits to making this change. But sometimes decisions made, regardless of their merits, must be reconsidered when the will of the people is so clearly against an issue.
Blair Lekstrom is the only member of the B.C. Legislature who seems to get it. The people of this province do not want this tax. Campbell may not stand for reelection, as may many of his fellow MLAs, who have long served the province well. His legacy will not be any of the many good decisions and projects completed during his several terms. It will be the HST and the fact it cost the Liberals the next election. I cannot and will not support a government who so clearly fails to represent me as a taxpayer. While I will never cast a ballot in favour of the NDP, my decision not to vote Liberal in the next election may ultimately result in the defeat and election of an NDP government. To me, that is a truly unfortunate but acceptable alternative to the manner in which the Liberal party are conducting themselves. Thank you Mr. Lekstrom for having the courage of your convictions and not only listening, but hearing the people of this province.

The Editor, Re: “Increased Port Mann tolls ‘shocking,’” the Now, June 11. I feel it is outrageous that some bridges will be tolled while others will not. Tolls should be applied equally, fairly, and universally throughout Metro Vancouver or eliminated altogether. Why should some bridges be 100 per cent subsidized by the government while citizens have to pay costly tolls for others? I am concerned that poor and working class areas south of the Fraser River will be paying too much. There needs to be some sort of progressive toll payment plan in place to make transportation costs affordable for everyone. I guess taxing people a premium for using the Lions Gate Bridge is out of the question since this bridge is used by many people who can actually afford to pay tolls and vote for the provincial government. Sorry, my mistake, there are no tolls on the Lions Gate Bridge. The government has a plan – tax the people of Whalley and North Surrey instead for crossing the Patullo and provide piece-meal public transportation south of the Fraser. Seems like Surrey is getting royally screwed over twice by the B.C. government.

❚HOME DECORATING
Bring style outside Homes
There are many great ideas for outside living spaces. Depending on the size of your backyard, you may have multiple sitting areas to enjoy the upcoming summer. Karly An idea to define these PAUL-MORRIS areas can be as simple as placing outside carpets in the various spaces. Mixing and matching different patterns with the carpets can add interest as well as colour. Polypropylene is an excellent durable material used for outside carpet. Low-light areas (north-facing backyards, for example) can be solved with brightly painted furniture and glass tabletops. Try to stay away from the heavy wood furniture if your area is relatively small. Open-backed chairs are a lighter look and tend to make the area appear more spacious. The brighter intense fabrics for toss cushions and chair pads will also make the space seem brighter. Beautiful oversize rattan baskets are practical for holding blankets for late-night conversations. Small tea lights in unique glass-blown saucers, when placed on coffee and end tables, add an attractive ambience to your setting. A pot of herbs or a planter box filled with lavender adds life, not to mention a nice scent. Mirrors are an unexpected accessory outside. They look great and can be mounted against the side of the house. A mirror will create space (if the area you have is small) with the natural light reflecting from it. It will also reflect the foliage surrounding your outdoor space enhancing the depth and give the illusion of more greenery. There are great outside cushions available these days that can withstand our occasional rainy weather during summer. Beautiful stripes, plaids and florals in an array of stunning colours suggest summer has finally arrived. It is fun to mix and match the different patterns to create your own unique look. When greenery is limited in your outside area, you may want to purchase good-quality silk plants. Put the plants in playful, colourful pots and cover the base with dried grass. They will add the look of greenery, and the only concern you’ll have is to keep them dusted! Silk plants are available in all-size shrubs and trees. Real plants can be mixed in with the artificial variety, creating a pleasant and lush look. Fresh-cut flowers in a glass vase look stunning

Lanterns add interest to the outside living area. An oversized coach lantern, with a candle that can be lit at night, creates a great ambiance. I have one near the sitting area in my backyard and have enjoyed it year after year. Build your own lattice bi-fold backdrop. It can be used as a privacy wall, or just to separate unsightly areas you want to keep out of view. These partitions can be free-standing or hanging. I recommend treating the wood with a good outside paint and sealer coat. An accessory
could easily be mounted on this backdrop, creating visual interest. Besides offering protection from the sun, outside umbrellas can define the area and add interest and colour to your space. The one style that has the long arm reaching over to support the umbrella works well for many furniture configurations. Enjoy the summer.

There may be golf carts to ride in, but that doesn’t mean if you’re a golfer you can let your fitness slide. Like any physical activity, if you put the effort into improving your conditioning then you will see improvements. To better understand the muscles and mechanics that are involved in your golf game the study of anatomy will provide valuable understanding of how to generate more power where you need it. The latest in this series of sports anatomy books from Human Kinetics explains what muscles are utilized in the various golf strokes. With full-colour anatomical illustrations the muscles and skeleton are clearly shown when engaged by the specific motions that are unique to golf. The authors have pre-
sented the information in sections that relate to the areas of concern for most golfers. Strength and balance exercises are shown to provide power and balance in the rotation of hips and shoulders. There is even a chapter on common golf-related injuries and how to build up those muscles to help prevent future problems. Golf enthusiasts will likely be pleasantly surprised by their improved performance if they devote the time to following these exercises. A Guidebook to Contemporary Architecture in Vancouver By Chris MacDonald, (Douglas & MacIntyre, 192 pages) $24.95 A look at the best of this city’s modern architecture that has been built over the past two decades is distilled down to 80 innovative buildings. Focusing on this 20-year period utilizes the impact of the two biggest events held in the city, Expo 86 and the 2010 Winter Olympics.
This pocket-sized book features 160 colour photographs and 40 architectural drawings. Each project is presented through a description, photographs and a list of details that include the architect, address and public access. In the book’s introduction, author Chris MacDonald looks at the evolution of planning and the key factors influencing that growth that are unique to Vancouver. View corridors, density transfers and neighbourhood gentrification are a few of the topics he discusses. There are many recently completed projects included such as the West Vancouver Aquatic Centre, North Vancouver City Library and the Richmond Oval. Viewed together as a collection they create an impression of a city where form and function are both appreciated.

Full-day kindergarten? No thanks “prepare” our children for kindergarten. Why do we feel the need to prepare our children for their next year, by having them practise it a year before, or even longer in some cases? If it’s something that is appropriate for next year, then it should be happening then, not now. If anything, a play-based preschool is what children should be experiencing before they head off to elementary school. Both my children were lucky to have been at a preschool that believed in the fundamentals of social interaction, and learning through play. They have the rest of their lives to be in school — but such a short time to simply be kids and not take their education seriously. When I hear a parent brag that their three-year-old child knows all the constellations and can recite a play by Shakespeare, I have to admit, I’m impressed. But what’s more important to me is this: Do they know how to share and play respectfully with other children? Because I can tell you right now, that’s what truly impresses me.

Excuse me if I’m not one of the parents jumping for joy over the imposed full-day kindergarten coming this September. I’m not thrilled because I don’t Kelley believe in putting chilSCARSBROOK dren in full-time school at the age of five. The attention span of a five-year old child for an entire day of school is questionable, at best. Some still need naps — and a full day of school can seem exceptionally long. When my son attended kindergarten, he was able to sleep in, have some play time in the morning and then head off to a half day of school. This eased him into the school system. My daughter is going to miss out on having that luxury. The provincial government has done parents a disservice by imposing full-time kindergarten in our schools. They’ve given parents the perception that education is a race, and that the earlier we can start them, the better. I have to wonder if this is their solution to the overcrowded childcare problems our province has been struggling with. Since the B.C. government announced plans of implementing earlier education a couple of years ago, we have seen a vast amount of structured, pre-kindergarten classes enter on to the scene. These classes range from the ridiculous age of two up to five. They are intended to

My dad is a real meat-andpotatoes kind of guy, and doesn’t stray from this beaten Chef path very DEZ often. Although he appreciates good food and has a palette accepting of spiciness, he usually doesn’t like anything too fancy or extraordinary. Many dads fall into this category and, thus, I dedicate this column to them and the loved ones who cook for them. Being a dad myself, I immediately think of barbecued food when it comes to Father’s Day. Instead of grilling up the same old cookout fare, like hamburgers and hotdogs, allow me to give you some refreshing ideas to add some variety to your celebration this weekend. A very popular recipe for beer chicken has been circulating for a while now. It involves standing a seasoned chicken over an open can of beer. Closing the lid of the barbecue will allow the chicken to roast and have the moisture of the beer baste the inside of the chicken as it evaporates from the can. This produces a very juicy and flavourful chicken and is sure to be a popular item with dad. Another great idea for the barbecue is corn on the cob. Most people boil cobbed corn, but how much flavour does water have? Zero. A better way is to have them steam in their own juices directly on the grates of the grill. The way to prepare this flavourful corn is very simple and provides a fantastic presentation. Remove as much of the silk as possible while keeping the husks of the corn intact. Soak the ears or corn for at least one hour in a pot of water to help prevent them from drying out. Remove them from the water and place directly on the preheated grill of the barbecue. With the ears intact, the cobs of corn will now steam in their own husks, which will get somewhat charred, adding a smoky flavour. Depending on the temperature of your barbecue,
OnCooking
Let the corn steam on your grill this Father’s Day (Sunday, June 20). Instead of barbecuing boring hamburgers and hotdogs for this celebration, consider doing beer-can chicken, grilled red onions and other fare.

this will take approximately 10 to 20 minutes — just remember to rotate them. For the best presentation, pull back the husks but keep them attached. An optional mixture of softened butter (seasoned with salt, pepper and chili powder, if you want) will add an extra kick of flavour and colour. One of my favourite barbecue side dishes is grilled red onion. With the help of a marinade, slices of this sweet onion variety get caramelized and sugary on the grill. A simple marinade of soy sauce and liquid honey will work wonders for you. Slice the red onions into twocentimetre-thick slices and insert two skewers per slice to keep them from falling apart into onion “rings.” Mix the marinade and soak the slices for one to 12 hours, turning occasionally. Preheat the barbecue and grill on each side until caramelized. Season with salt and freshly cracked pepper, and serve. Dear Chef Dez, I love barbecued chicken with the skin on, however, it always seems to get burned on the outside well before the centre gets cooked. I know many people cook skinless chicken pieces and they have no problem, but I enjoy having the skin on. However, the fat from the skin promotes flare-ups, and so it gets burned. How can I avoid this without losing my enjoyment of having the skin? Tracey S., Abbotsford Dear Tracey, There are two ways you can go about preventing this. One way is to use a combination of cooking methods between the oven and the barbecue. Starting the cooking process of the chicken in your oven will cook much of the fat from the skin before it even hits the grill. Lay seasoned chicken pieces in a baking dish and cook halfway through. Then transfer them to a preheated grill to get the flame-broiled taste and to finish the cooking process. Barbecue sauce is best added just before the chicken is cooked on the barbecue. Either that, or use lower heat on the barbecue and place the chicken pieces on an upper rack. This will take more time than the first option, but by doing all the grilling outside, your home will stay that much cooler. dez@chefdez.com

❚ LIVING ❚TRAVEL/Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario
Wine, theatre highlight ‘Canada’s prettiest town’ Idyllic Niagara-onJamie ROSS the-Lake has been Now contributor called Canada’s prettiest little town. It is home to some of North America’s finest wineries, a sampling of great hotels, fine restaurants that specialize in local cuisine, eclectic shopping and the Shaw Festival. Blossoming flowers colour the neat and orderly downtown. Beautiful stone heritage buildings have been restored to their original splendour. Old-fashioned street lights illuminate the horse-drawn carriages that parade up and down Queen Street. Though its famous name has left it linked with one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World, the mood and pace of the charming town has little in common with the touristriddled, glitzy city of Niagara Falls. And Niagara-on-the-Lake’s beauty is more substance than superficial. The Niagara Peninsula is recognized internationally as an outstanding wine producing locale, with a unique mesoclimate similar to that of the great wine-producing regions of the world. This rich agricultural area is more southerly than Bordeaux, and two Great Lakes (Ontario and Erie) ensure cool springs and long autumns
— ideal for growing grapes. Just over an hour’s drive from Toronto and a half-hour from Buffalo, the peninsula is home to more than 40 wineries. No longer are they simply purveyors of excellent wines, the wineries have done an outstanding job of tapping into tourism, offering visitors the complete “wine country” experience. Open year-round, they welcome guests with tours, tastings, special events and the opportunity to experience regional cuisine in their restaurants. My wife and I rented bicycles, feeling that this energetic approach would be the healthiest and safest way to do some winery-hopping. With trail map in hand, and following the blue “wine route” signs, we cycled through the beautiful vineyard estates, stopping at the renowned Peller Estates, Inniskillin, Jackson-Triggs, Reif Estate, Pillitteri and Marynissen wineries to sample remarkably diverse offerings. Winemakers and their staff at the taster bars showed us how to taste and evaluate wine by colour, clarity, aroma and flavour. The picturesque paved Wine Trail meanders along the bank of the Niagara River, past beautiful stone homes, historic inns, orchards, vineyards and wineries.
By DR. W. GIFFORD-JONES
The trek follows the Niagara Parkway, which Winston Churchill, during a 1943 visit, called “the prettiest Sunday afternoon drive in the world.” The many historic plaques and markers remind us of Niagara-on-the-Lake’s special place in our history, as capital of Upper Canada in 1792, site of the first provincial parliament and of our first newspaper. We pedalled down to the waterfront to watch jet boats departing for a quick trip upriver to the famous falls, and then visited historic Fort George, where staff in period costume and uniform re-enact daily life in the garrison circa 1812, when the fort’s cannons faced Fort Niagara on the American side of the river. When a light drizzle began to fall, we slipped into Buttery Restaurant on main street for steak and kidney pie and a dark beer. The annual Shaw Festival, which opens in April and runs to November, features the works of George Bernard Shaw and his contemporaries. There are three theatres, each with its own personality. The Royal George Theatre on Queen Street features Edwardian gilt mouldings, richly coloured red walls and

Green tea - it’s not just for sipping anymore
What’s the latest eco-friendly product? It’s not a new discovery to run your car or get rid of your garbage. Rather, it’s an eco-friendly skin cream that contains green tea extract. I thought green tea was for drinking. But a report from the American Academy of Dermatology claims that 150 studies prove green tea is beneficial to skin in several ways. Dr. Stephen Hsu at The Medical College of Georgia, says a five-year study was sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health. The purpose was to find a non-toxic method to prevent the increasing number of people developing skin cancer. Every year one million Americans are diagnosed with this disease. A shocking report from the U.S. National Cancer Institute indicates a whopping 50% increase in the number of women between the ages of 15 and 39 who were diagnosed with melanoma from 1980 to 2004. It’s been known for years that in Japan and China, where green tea consumption is high, there are fewer oral, prostate, colon and bladder cancers. Recent research on mice shows that polyphenols in green tea help to inhibit carcinogenetic changes in skin and other organs. The way our skin ages depends on several factors. The most controllable factor is “photo-aging.” Excessive exposure to sun results in coarse, rough wrinkled skin. The time clock also plays a role in skin aging and none of us like to see these increasing imperfections in the mirror. That’s why everyone’s antenna, but particularly women’s, lights up when I write about this subject. Now a recently developed product, Reversa Antioxidant Booster Serum, is a unique blend of several beneficial products. At the top of the list is pure and natural Teavigo, a green tea extract containing polyphenols that decreases the appearance of redness caused by exposure of the skin to ultraviolet rays. Green tea extract is also an antioxidant that counteracts the action of free radicals, the end products of metabolism, associated with the aging process. Vitamin E, long known for its healing qualities, is part of the formula. This fat soluble antioxidant is normally present in low concentrations on the skin’s surface. It helps to protect cellular membranes. Defense mechanism The last ingredient, ß-Glucan, obtained from the cell wall of baker’s yeast, also helps to decrease the ravages of oxidative damage by stimulating the skin’s natural defense mechanism.
But why the claim that Reversa Antioxidant Booster Serum is an ecofriendly product? Because it contains no mineral oil, petrolatum, volatile silicones, colouring agents, or synthetic fragrances. Its packaging is entirely recyclable and contains no Bisphenol A. The formula is paraben-free (a preservative used in cosmetics) and its cold manufacturing process consumes a minimum of energy. I hope that this eco-friendly cream will help to decrease the increasing number of skin cancers and other dermatology problems. It’s too early to know, but Dr. Hsu suggests, that in addition to its anticancer and photo protection qualities, future research may show that green tea extracts are helpful in treating other skin disorders such as psoriasis, actinic keratosis, seborrheic keratosis and rosacea. Let’s not forget about beauty. After all, there’s no harm in a touch of vanity here and this eco-friendly green tea cream also protects the skin against the ravages of environmental pollution and aging. It accomplishes this by adding moisture to the skin and thereby preventing the appearance of wrinkles. Reversa’s green tea extract also has a booster effect on other day and night skin care products such as anti-spot lightening and exfoliating creams. The earlier in life you get started on protecting skin, the better. Unfortunately the aging of skin starts in our twenties when reduced collagen production causes thinning of skin and fine wrinkles. This along with decreased concentration of glycosaminoglycans results in dry skin and slower removal of dead cells. There’s also less spring-back due to a loss of elastic fibres. Today’s Reversa Antioxidant Booster Serum, available in drugstores, is a far cry from grandmother’s cold cream. And there’s sound scientific evidence to back up its claims. So, while you enjoy the benefits of drinking green tea this summer, you can also protect your skin from the damaging effects of radiation with an eco-friendly skin cream containing green tea.

❚ LIVING ❚TRAVEL/Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario continued from page 28 golden lions. It was built as a vaudeville house to entertain troops during the First World War. The Shaw stages 11 productions each season, for an international audience of some 350,000 people. We enjoyed an intriguing evening performance of An Inspector Calls and, on a lazy Sunday afternoon, were wowed by the fun and engaging musical Wonderful Town. With the musical numbers echoing in our heads, we wandered through the art
galleries and shops along the main street, settling on the Shaw Wine Bar and Café as an excellent place to sit and discuss the theatre. Sipping a barrel-aged Gamay Noir while looking down at the tree-lined main street, with its flower gardens and restored buildings, I raised a salute to the poet William Kirby who wrote, back in 1896, that “Niagara is as near heaven as any town whatever.” After our enchanting weekend in Niagara-on-the-Lake, we realize things have not changed very much.

Grassroots football programs let fans of all ages link up with the Lions “I have been involved with our grassroots football programs for many seasons now,” says Lions slotback and fan favourite Geroy Simon. “Having an opportunity to share our love of the game with our fans throughout B.C. is a great way to give back to our community and gives us a chance to get to know our fans too!” PUNT, PASS & KICK Punt, Pass & Kick is a program designed to provide an opportunity for minor football players to test their skills in punting, passing and kicking while reinforcing their love of football. In 2009, the BC Lions, Tim Hortons, and BC Community Football hosted competitions in 15 districts in the Lower Mainland where players at the Flag (ages 6-7), Atom (ages 8-9), Peewee (ages 10-11) and Junior Bantam (12-13) levels had the opportunity to show off their skills and compete for an individual title. The 2010 Punt, Pass & Kick program will kick off in June, with the finals slated for the fall. For more information about the Punt, Pass & Kick program, please contact the BC Lions Football Club at 604.930.5466. PLAY WITH THE PROS Play with the Pros matches BC Lions players with boys and girls, providing them with an opportunity to participate in a noncontact skills clinic hosted by their favourite BC Lions players. The participants are divided into groups and rotate through various skill stations every 10-15 minutes. One player, one alumnus and one volunteer coach (local high school or community) are assigned per station, teaching skills such as
passing, receiving, pass routes and proper running techniques. The program will continue with similar visits in 2010 with the first 2010 Play with the Pros clinic taking place on June 27 at the club’s Surrey practice facility. For more information about the Lions’ Play with the Pros program, please contact the club at 604.930.5466. TIMBITS FOOTBALL CAMP The Timbits Football Camp is a free clinic for boys and girls between 6 and 12 years old. The program offers these children the chance to learn the basic skills of football and to play with their BC Lions heroes. Last year, more than 400 boys and girls took part in the camp. The 2010 Timbits Football Camp will take place on Aug. 29. For more information about the Lions’ Timbits Football Camp, please contact the club at 604.930.5466.

FOOTBALL 101 Football 101 is a course designed exclusively for women who want to learn more about the CFL game. For just $50 (plus tax), participants receive a BC Lions T-shirt, a Football 101 manual and a game ticket to a BC Lions home game, which includes viewing the pre-game warm-up and a “chalk talk” with former BC Lions great Jamie Taras. In 2009, the BC Lions welcomed close to 150 women of all ages during two sessions of Football 101. In 2010, the BC Lions will once again host two sessions of this popular “just-for ladies” event – on Wednesday, Aug. 4 and Wednesday, Oct. 13. To register, please contact the club at 604.930.5466.
FOOTBALL 202 Football 202 is an on-field, interactive course just for women. It gives them an opportunity to run through drills and exercises similar to the ones BC Lions players engage in throughout the season. In 2009, more than 60 women hit the field as part of the program. Football 202 gives women the opportunity to learn the basics of passing, receiving, kicking, and much more from their very own BC Lions. In 2010, Football 202 will take place on Sunday, Aug. 22. To register, contact the club at 604.930.5466.

With the 2010 football season now underway, BC Lions fans will soon be heading to Empire Field for the season home opener versus the Saskatchewan Roughriders on Saturday, July 10. But Lions’ action isn’t limited to the field. The team’s grassroots football programs are focused on linking the team with people throughout the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, allowing the Lions and fans of all ages to share their love of football.

Arborist pits his skills against the clock just to watch and it seemed to me that it was way above my head,” he said. “The guys were really intense but they were right into it but I was still keen. So I kept working at it and kept climbing and later I entered my first competition and it was a lot of fun. It didn’t feel like a competition, it was just a bunch of guys having fun.” Each ISA tree climbing competition is built around five core events.

Competitive tree climber Shane Blacktopp said safety and leaving no marks behind on the trees are two of the top priorities for ❚PHOTO/Brian Howell enthusiasts. That and having fun, of course.
A tree is a Michael BOOTH tree is a tree, Sports Editor right? Sure some are prettier than others, some lose their leaves in the fall and the big ones make us glance about nervously when the wind picks up in the fall. Other than that, trees are jus part of the everyday backdrop for our daily lives. Unless you’re Shane Blacktopp. For the 25-year-old White Rock arborist, trees are the focus of his world, both on the job and for recreation. “This is my life, it really is,” he said. “I live and breathe trees all the time. I try and save them whenever I can and I see things when I’m driving that most people don’t notice. “When I look at a tree, a lot of times I think, ‘Oh, that’s where I would tie in and then I’d walk over there...’ It’s just the way I look at trees. Other people admire its size or leaves but I try and figure out how I would prune that dead branch half way up.” Trees represent many things to Blacktopp. They’re a source of income, an unending learning experience and even a playground in his off hours. A certified arborist, tree worker and risk assessor with B.C. Plant Healthcare, Blacktopp puts his skills to the test on weekends at competitions sanctioned by the International Society of Arboriculture. This week he’s off to a regional competition in Portland as well as upcoming events in Bellingham and Victoria. The regional finals will be held in Tacoma in September and the top finishers there will advance to the world championships in Australia. Despite his experience in the trees, Blacktopp admits he was wary of the competitions at first. “The first one I went to was

❚ SPORTS
❚ Work climb Different stations established in a tree and competitor has to negotiate around the branches to perform assorted tasks. Tasks include tree pruners, handsaws and a limb walk. At the end of each task, climber rings a bell and proceeds to the next one. Event ends with climber descending to a bulls-eye target at base of the tree. “It’s not just about speed; we’re not just crashing through the branches,” Blacktopp said. “If you damage the tree or break a branch or drop a tool, you’re disqualified. Everything we do is all about leaving no trace, that’s our goal. It’s all about being fluid, controlled and safe.” ❚ Aerial rescue A scenario is present with a fireman’s dummy up in a tree. Climber has to assess the situation and take the necessary steps to rescue the “injured” party. ❚ Footlock A method of scaling a tree using a rope and the climber’s ability to gain leverage from the swinging line.

Canada takes on India in field hockey golf report
Surrey’s Tamanawis Park will play host to the first three matches in a four-game exhibition series between Canada and India in women’s field hockey. The games will provide an opportunity for the public to observe firsthand the high level of play and exciting speed and ability of the Canadian team as they work their way toward international success in the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi, India. Canada, ranked 19th in the world will take on India, ranked 13th in the world. This tournament is one element of an increased training program at a high level of competition in
preparation for the Commonwealth Games. Admission is by donation. The Canadian Women recently competed in a World Cup Qualifier in San Diego playing against Korea, USA, France, Mexico and Belgium. The women finished a very strong fourth and demonstrated a marked improvement in play. Games at Tamanawis Park (126th St. and 64th Ave.) will be played June 15, 17 and 19. Start times for all three matches is 7 p.m. A fourth game will be played June 20 at 4 p.m. at UBC.
Yee, Matthews rejoin Canada
Two local players will be suiting
up again for Canada at the 2010 ISF XII Women’s World Championship tournament in Venezuela later this month. 2008 Olympians Melanie Matthews and Jennifer Yee both made the 17-player roster for Canada at a recent selection camp. Matthews is an outfielder who played her college career at SFU while Yee is and infielder who is coming off a monster year with Georgia Tech. The ISF XII Women’s World Championship will begin on June 23rd, 2010. Team Canada will play its opening game on June 24th against Cuba.

Activity not to be confused with logging continued from page 32 ally monkey your way up the tree as fast as you can,” Blacktopp said. “Tall guys rule that event because they have the reach. I have to jump for the branches but they can just grab it.” ❚ Line toss Six targets with assorted point values are established on various limbs and crotches of a tree. Competitor has to toss a weighted line over the
designated target to earn the points. The higher or more difficult the target, the more points. Blacktopp gets plenty of practise on the job but he still puts in extra climbing time whenever he gets the opportunity. Passers-by will often stop and watch and perhaps ask a few questions, which he is happy to answer. “If people are interested I like to share knowledge because I like educating the public,” he said.
“We’re not loggers, that’s the biggest thing to me in my mind because people classify us as that. I hate that. I am so far from a logger; I’m not about making money from killing trees. If I prune your tree, I’ll make more money because I’ll come back and prune it again. It’s all about the health of the trees and not just killing them off.” Blacktopp has taken part in six competitions to date and his starting to be seen as one of the more
Time to turn on the computer. Robert Garrigus has a three-stroke lead finishing the 17th tee, Robert Karlsson and Lee Westwood are tied for second at the St. Jude Classic. Time for them to call the Memphis airport and fire up the private jet. Whoa — hold it, by the time I am ready to sit down, Garrigus has blown a three-stroke lead on 18, and we’re going to a playoff. Sadly, Garrigus goes out on the first extra hole, and it’s up to Karlsson and Westwood to decide the winner. When it’s all over after four extra holes, Westwood wins, although for a while as it looked like neither wanted the win. He backed into it, but the number three ranked player in the world couldn’t have picked a better time to improve his game heading into the U.S. Open this week at Pebble Beach. For Garrigus, the loss is heartbreaking; the 32-year-old pro from Scottsdale, Ariz., came into this event 377th in the world rankings and had never led a PGA event on the final day.
experienced guys scampering up the ropes into the higher branches. Even after the final scores are tallied up, the positive environment makes all of the competitors feel like winners. “I’m getting to the stage now where I feel like I’m one of the guys who younger guys are looking at now,” Blacktopp said. “I like that feeling but the main thing is still having fun. We’re out with a good group of people and we’re doing green things.”
The inexperience showed on the 72nd hole. He put his tee shot into the lake lining the 18th fairway, took his drop and yanked his next shot into the trees left of the lake before punching out over the lake. He two-putted for triple bogey to at least make the playoff. If any of us did that we would want to find the nearest bus to anywhere out of town. But Garrigus stood up to the media and the congrats from his fellow players for hanging in when escaping the area seemed more important. If you look at past winners of the Pebble Beach U.S. Open, experience has won out. Jack Nicklaus won in 1972, Tom Watson in ’82. In ’92 the winner was Tom Kite, and finally Tiger Woods with that brilliant 15-stroke win on the field in 2000. Given Tiger’s play so far this year he is hard to include in the potential winners. Holes to watch: probably 8-10 as these three holes hang right on the Pacific Ocean cliffs. The course is 7,040 yards long, which may sound like a lot, but it is the shortest course since Shinnecock, which just under 7,000. But the length of the course has little to do with its toughness. It’s the wind that counts. If it’s blowing, it is one tough course. They have lengthened three of the holes: nine is now 39 yards longer, 49 yards have been added to 10, and 39 added to 13, taking it to 445 yards.

One big draw for elite youth teams is the mentoring aspect of the tournament – seeing some of the best in the world play in the Canada/USA Women's national team marquee game series. According to Timm, another draw is the championship game format used at the Canada Cup in the past – a tradition the Canadian Open Fastpitch tournament is continuing this year.
Games at most youth tournaments have time limits, allowing winning teams to stall until time runs out. At the Canadian Open Fastpitch tournament, that won’t be an option. Next month, teams taking to the diamonds at Softball City and Cloverdale Athletic Park will battle it out for seven solid innings – and more if need be. “We’re going to let the teams play,” said Timm. Coaches love the format, he said, because it allows them to prepare their teams for state and national

“We’ve gotten tremendous support from last year’s Canada Cup volunteers. They just love to be part of the community and provide these young athletes the opportunity to shine.”
Along with the dedicated softball veterans, organizers have brought new volunteers on board by spreading the word in Surrey and surrounding communities and minor softball associations. Timm estimates an army of about 250 volunteers will be working at the two venues, lending a hand in every detail of the tournament, including announcing, scorekeeping, taking tickets, raking fields, supplying teams with water, directing

sed fastpitch event happen One thing he has seen work in the past, however, is not something that can be organized from the top down, and that’s the sense of community that develops among volunteers working together to put on a world class event. “Many of our volunteers love the camaraderie, the friendships they've formed and they love making a difference,” he said. "We keep hearing from people in the international softball community how great our volunteers are, how enthusiastic, how hardworking. That's what makes it work. You can't have a great tournament without a lot of dedication and heart. Our volunteers take a great deal of pride in being involved with something that makes a difference to youth, to their community and to the sport."
That training is part of an overall professionalism organizers are working hard to foster. “At Canadian Open Fastpitch, we’re looking to create a championship environment,” said Timm. “Our event has a lot of components that go above and beyond those of other tournaments.” To achieve that aim, everyone working at the tournament has been grouped into a well-oiled chain of command, with each director on the board responsible for host committee members, who in turn oversee the backbone of the tournament – general volunteers. Making the most of an enthusiastic volunteer force is a skill many on the Canadian Open Fastpitch organizing committee have perfected through years of involvement in the sport and in the community. “We have a very experienced organizing committee, people who have run many different tournaments, been involved with many community events large and small” said Timm. “They have a very deep level of

DEVELOPMENT OF A PEST MANAGEMENT PLAN Pest Management Plan # 344-017-10/15 Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited, 2102 River Drive, New Westminster, B.C., V3M 6S3 Telephone 604-527-6307 • Fax 604-526-0914
Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited is developing a Pest Management Plan and will submit the plan for registration under the Integrated Pest Management Act. This plan will describe a vegetation management and wood preservative programs using Integrated Pest Management, including the use of herbicides and pesticides to control pests and wood decay. The purpose is to control vegetation on the right of way ballast section, to address sight-line related safety issues and to control wood decay in the timber trestles. Pesticide treatment applications using Telar (chlorsulfuron) on 35 ha, Karmex DF (diuron) on 61.9 ha and Vantage/Weed-Master Glyphosate 41 (glyphosate) on 94.81 ha, to be made using truck mounted spray boom, power hose/nozzle and back pack sprayer. Non-pesticide treatment methods are mechanical brush cutting, manual brush cutting, ballast cleaning, ballast reconstruction and surfacing between New Westminster and Chilliwack; Trapp Railway Yard in New Westminster and Burnaby; Sixteenth (16th) Street Railway Yard in New Westminster, Queensboro, New Westminster and Annacis Island, Delta, annually commencing October 1, 2010 with completion on September 30, 2015. Wood preservative pesticide treatment applications using Timber Fume (chloropicrin) and CU-89-RTU (copper naphthenate) by internal insertion/injection into drilled holes in the affected members that will be tightly plugged to ensure that the pesticide does not enter into a body of water or other environmentally sensitive area. A copy of the Pest Management Plan Application and maps of the proposed treatment areas may be viewed at Southern Railway of British Columbia Limited offices at 2102 River Drive, New Westminster, B. C. or 34520 Vye Road Abbotsford, B.C. during normal working hours. A person wishing to contribute information about a proposed treatment site, relevant to the development of the pest management plan, may send copies of the information to the applicant at the address above within 30 days of the publication of this notice.

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a Sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!
