Pilot project. Windows, smoke alarms among some of the concerns Half of the secondary suites city officials investigated during a year-long pilot project had “significant safety issues,” according to initial results going before aldermen this week. Smoke alarms that weren’t connected with the rest of the home, improper windows — or in some cases no windows at all — and limited drywalling on the ceiling and around the furnace room were chief concerns as the City of Calgary approached owners of 50 homes believed to feature secondary suites. The results of the pilot, which aimed to raise awareness and give city council a keener understanding of safety issues, stunned Russ Mantei, whose daughter Colleen Mantei and two others died in a northwest Calgary basement-suite fire in 2009. The unit’s lone smoke detector wasn’t working at the time and evidence found in the home indicates the victims tried unsuccessfully to pry safety bars off a window in an attempt to escape. “Life just hasn’t been the same since,” Russ said

Sunday, before adding the findings of the city’s pilot project, “are just terrible ... People need to start treating these suites like they would if it was their own kids living in them.” After being approached by the city, 23 homeowners opted to decommission their suites rather than work to bring them up to code. The numbers were also disappointing to Ald. Brian Pincott, who, along with Mayor Naheed Nenshi and a host of other aldermen, pushed to relax suite zoning rules in 2011, but many of the changes were narrowly defeated. The thinking at the time was that by allowing secondary suites in all areas of the city and reducing red-tape, homeowners would be more likely to follow proper channels including ensuring property safety. With the current setup, Pincott said, suite tenants have “zero rights.” “They complain to the landlord, they’re out, they complain to the city, they’re out, because the city will shut it down,” he said. Ald. Andre Chabot still believes neighbours should have a right to weigh in on a proposed suite that could impact their community rather than allowing blanket approval.

It greatly impacts his mobility and speech, but his mother said physicians have marvelled at how his mind stayed sharp. He completed his PhD in mechanical engineering this spring at the University of Calgary, focusing on the heating of hot baths used in ancient Rome.

Calgary’s public school board has recouped more than $350,000 in outstanding fees from parents for the 2011-12 year by using a collection agency. But two-thirds of $1.1 million in unpaid charges for instructional supplies, busing and noon-hour supervision remained unaccounted for as of May 31, and some parents say they are unfazed by pressure from the agency. The total amount outstanding in 2011-12 was the highest in recent years. However, it comes before a move to separate busing and noon-hour fees, which drove the cost up for some parents by $80 per student for 201213. That charge will rise to $145 per child this fall. “It’s not even that much money — to me it’s the principle,” said Dawn Ackroyd, mother of two, who is anticipating a letter from the collection agency after she declined to pay their noon-hour fees for the current year. “I never signed a contract for that,” she said, when asked why she opted not to pay. The CBE, however, has maintained that sending unpaid fees to a collection agency is a “very last resort” and is the best way to ensure fairness for parents who do fork over the money. Spokesperson Megan Geyer said that while only one-third of the fees owed have been collected, other parents could still be in the process of working with the collection agency.

Now, the aspiring engineer faces his toughest question yet: What to do next? “At the moment I am wavering between venturing out into industry and continuing with a post-doctoral fellowship.... My ideal job would be to work for one of the design think-tanks, where clients have a problem (and) the company designs a solution,” he said.

Thousands of happy faces filled Stanley Park on Sunday to find a cure for a disease that doesn’t normally lend itself to smiles. Participants at the 2013 Telus Walk to Cure Diabetes raised the bar this year by aiming for $8 million total in donations and pledges. With more than 45,000 walkers across Canada, there’s a great deal of confidence that goal can be met. “(This) is a really supportive community,” said John Trebilcock, walking for his second time in Calgary. “We’re here to support my 12-year-old

son Alexander, who was diagnosed (with Type 1 diabetes) four years ago.” Along with the bouncy house and face-painting station, there was also an opportunity to learn about new technologies. “It’s a chance to see newer, smaller, more accurate blood sensors and diabetes pumps — stuff that makes your life easier,” said Trebilcock. The Moore family gathered in support of eight-year-old Mackenzie Moore. “We’ve got family everywhere, even great grandparents that have come down,” said Mackenzie’s grandmother, Diane Moore.

Verizon story source outed at his own request The Guardian. Ex CIA employee Edward Snowden, 29, said his motive was to ‘inform the public’; NSA seeks criminal investigation A former CIA employee and National Security Agency contractor is the source of The Guardian’s disclosures about the U.S. government’s secret surveillance programs, the British newspaper reported Sunday. The leaks have reopened a debate about privacy concerns versus heightened measures to protect against terrorist attacks, and led

His background

Edward Snowden said that he lacked a high school diploma and enlisted in the U.S. Army. • After leaving the army, he got his foot in the door with the NSA working at a covert facility. • He then worked for the CIA in information technology. By 2007, he was stationed in Geneva.

America’s NSA to ask for a criminal investigation. The Guardian said it was publishing the identity of Edward Snowden, 29, a former

technical assistant for the CIA and current employee of defence contractor Booz Allen Hamilton, at his own request. “My sole motive is to inform the public as to that which is done in their name and that which is done against them,” said Snowden. The NSA has been collecting the phone records of hundreds of millions of Americans. President Barack Obama has said the programs have been authorized by Congress and are subject to supervision. “What I can say is that in evaluating these programs, they make a difference in our capacity to anticipate and prevent possible terrorist activity.” the associated press

Journalism. U.S. state snooping prompts debate on source protection A scandal over state snooping on journalists in the United States is prompting mediawatchers to consider new techniques to protect sources. Anonymity of sources is considered sacrosanct among journalists and essential to their safety, reputation, and ability to act as public whistle-blowers. But journalists are lagging behind when it comes to protecting sources in the digital era, critics say. “There is a general lack of

awareness (among journalists) about what ubiquitous surveillance looks like,” said Jonathan Stray, who teaches at Columbia University. Everything from the websites you visit, the calls you make, and even your phone location are logged somewhere, Stray said. The same applies to reporters. Whistle-blowers are at particular risk. A week ago, The New Yorker unveiled Strongbox — a secure way for people to leak information to them. the canadian press

Canadian military

Defence survey to shed light on silent crime Results of an anonymous survey to be released in the fall by National Defence will shed more light on the extent of military sexual assault, including what has been called the silent crime of male-on-male rape. Almost 68,000 troops, 86 per cent of them men, were asked last year to voluntarily complete the Canadian Forces Workplace Harassment Survey. It asks their gender, years of service and rank, along with 100 questions ranging from personal harassment to whether they’ve been raped. It’s the first such survey since 1998. Results could provide valuable insight into the extent of sexual violence in the Canadian military — an issue that former soldiers and others say is rarely reported. The extent to which men are sexually assaulted by other men is even more cloaked in silence, they say. the canadian press

South Africa prays for ‘father of nation’ Nelson Mandela. Anti-apartheid leader battles grave infection; in serious condition Nelson Mandela received visits from family members on Sunday at a hospital where the former president and antiapartheid leader was being treated for a recurring lung infection, while South Africans expressed their appreciation for a man widely regarded as the father of the nation. There was no official update on 94-year-old Mandela after his second night in the hospital. His condition was described as “serious but stable” on Saturday. The office of President Jacob Zuma had said that Mandela was taken to a Pretoria hospital after his condition deteriorated at around 1:30 a.m. on Saturday.

Alleged abuse

Ten years ago, their unprecedented wedding stood for hope, equality and inclusion. A decade later, Michael Leshner and Michael Stark — Canada’s first legally married same-sex couple — believe the battle to have their union recognized by the courts has made it easier for today’s lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Canadians to feel accepted. “Once you have marriage you have full equality. That was won that day,” said Leshner.

The pair’s quick civil ceremony in Toronto came just hours after Ontario’s Court of Appeal pronounced the Canadian law on traditional marriage unconstitutional on June 10, 2003. While Ontario was the first to legally recognize same-sex marriage, many other provinces followed soon after. Two years later, the federal government legalized same-sex marriage countrywide with the gender-neutral Civil Marriage Act. the canadian press

After the speech. Tens of thousands pack into Taksim Square; thousands more flood Ankara’s central square In a series of increasingly belligerent speeches to cheering supporters Sunday, Turkey’s prime minister launched a

verbal attack on the tens of thousands of anti-government protesters who flooded the streets for a 10th day, accusing them of creating an environment of terror. Recep Tayyip Erdogan made the most inflammatory of his speeches as he arrived in the capital, Ankara. Erdogan belittled the protesters, again calling them “capulcu,” the Turkish word for loot-

ers or vandals. He made his speech in Ankara on an opentop bus, which then drove into the city in a motorcade. Anti-government protesters have turned Erdogan’s label of them as “capulcu” into mocking slogans, printing stickers with the word, scrawling it on their tents and uploading music videos onto social network sites.

That willingness to go against the grain is true to this city’s spirit as haven for mavericks, and I can’t wait to see what the next evolution will be. Considering the incredible agricultural producers surrounding Calgary, it seems odd that eating local is suddenly all the rage. Shouldn’t this have been the case all along? Either way, as a consumer and amateur foodie, I love that my city’s food and drink scene is one more thing I can be proud of.

Feeding Alberta. Charities banking on collaboration as the way of the future

Some bodies stuck

News worth sharing Media will always have to report on the tough stuff. But we know that Canada is full of compassionate people, inspiring projects and stories worth celebrating. Here’s just one: Running a food bank is a tough job. Racing against expiration dates and providing not only enough food, but also enough varieties of food to meet basic nutritional needs are just some of the challenges. It’s a breathtaking balancing act, especially for grassroots groups that are often understaffed or unfunded. “Sometimes food banks, depending on their location in the province, feel as though they are operating in isolation,” says Jessi Evanoff, co-ordinator of the Alberta Food Bank Network Association (AFBNA), which recently held a conference in Camrose.

Facing budget cuts and increasing demand, 27 Alberta member banks, including Calgary Interfaith Food Bank, gathered below the white steeple of Bethel Evangelical Lutheran Church to lend each other moral support and to talk shop. “ Collaboration is the future for food banks,” says Evanoff, who believes that community partnerships will help AFBNA members weather the economic rough patch and allow them to offer more holistic services.

iRadio music service, iOS update expected at Apple conference San Francisco. New look for iPhones, iPads could be most radical design change to mobile software since 2007 Apple is expected to reveal a digital radio service and changes to the software behind iPhones and iPads on Monday as the company opens its annual conference for software developers. Apple hasn’t said what it will unveil at the Worldwide Developers Conference in San Francisco. But the major announcements are expected during Monday’s keynote presentation. Last year, Apple used the conference to announce its own mapping service, better integration with social networks and improvements to virtual assistant Siri. It also announced

thinner MacBooks with highresolution screens. The conference runs through Friday. This year, Apple is expected to show off a simplified look on iPhones and iPads. If the speculation is correct, it would be the most radical design change

since the iPhone made its debut in 2007, showing consumers that phones could do much more than make calls and exchange messages. This week’s event comes at an important time for Apple. The company’s stock price has fallen amid concerns that another breakthrough product isn’t imminent. Although CEO Tim Cook has said people shouldn’t expect new products until the fall, Apple is likely to preview how future products will function in its unveiling of new services and features. Monday’s highlight is expected to be an updated version of iOS, the software that runs iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches. It will be called iOS 7 and will come with new devices expected to go on sale this fall. Owners of recent models such as last fall’s iPhone 5 will likely be eligible for free upgrades.

Federal agency stopsinvestigating deadly anthrax

Skirting the issue Swedish train driver Martin Akersten poses wearing a skirt in Stockholm on May 31. Akersten says he and more than a dozen other drivers and conductors in the Swedish capital have started wearing skirts in the summer as a protest against train company Arriva’s uniform policy, which doesn’t allow shorts. An Arriva spokesman says the company wants its staff to look ”nice and proper,” but can’t stop men from wearing “women’s clothes” if that’s what they want because it would be discrimination. Kim Jensen/The Associated Press

Canada’s food regulator is no longer getting involved in cases of anthrax, a disease that can kill cattle, bison, other grazing animals and, in rare cases, people. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency says it will no longer investigate and quarantine anthrax-infected farms, collect samples for testing, vaccinate livestock or oversee and help pay for the cost of disposing animals that die of the disease. New rules that went into effect this spring say livestock producers, with the help of private veterinarians, are expected to take responsibility for preventing and dealing with anthrax. Anthrax is caused by naturally occurring bacteria in spores in soil. The spores can become active during hot weather that follows heavy rains or flooding. Animals that ingest the spores can get sick and die very quickly. The Canadian Press

Strombo brings style to CNN Network sea change. New mandate and management has the purveyor of American news looking to branch out into new territory It’s a safe bet that George Stroumboulopoulos will be the first male CNN personality to wear two earrings and a skull ring from a designer who made one for Keith Richards. Stroumboulopoulos, whose new nighttime talk show pre-

miered Sunday, is more curious than dangerous, though. The show gets a solid time slot for its debut, airing after the season finale of Anthony Bourdain’s successful Parts Unknown. Then it will settle into a regular spot on Fridays at 11 p.m. Eastern for the summer and, if things go well, maybe beyond. This is part of CNN’s attempt to branch out beyond news programming at certain times, represented most prominently by Bourdain’s show. The effort started before the arrival of new network boss Jeff Zucker — Stroumboulopoulos

Stroumboulopoulos already hosts a nightly talk show on the CBC, where his friendly style seems to encourage celebrities to open up. “I hope that people pick up something new about the person I’m interviewing and find out a way to relate to them,” he said. “I want them to find a connection.” For CNN, the show represents an old style for a new generation.

For the moment, he’ll fit the CNN show in with a schedule that includes the CBC show (which airs twice in the evening) and a weekly music and talk program he does for a CBS radio station. “This is what I do,” he said. “I don’t even have any dependents in my life.

What’s in a name? A lot of money, apparently Scarlett Johansson is suing over the use of her name in The First Thing We Look At, a French novel by Gregoire Delacourt, according to the Hollywood Reporter. The book features a character first believed to be Johansson until it is later revealed she is a look-alike. Johansson is seeking

compensation and damages for “breach and fraudulent use of personal rights,” and she’s also seeking a ban on “future transfer of rights and adaptations of the book.” Delacourt, for his part, is “stunned” by the suit and says he chose Johansson for the story because she is the “epitome of beauty today.”

Justin Bieber’s neighbours in his gated community are reportedly fed up with his bad behaviour. They plan to have their servants

picket his house and throw old gold at his cars. Jada Pinkett Smith says she and Will Smith enjoy stopping at the 7-Eleven for ice cream. But not as much as they enjoy firing idiot assistants who come up with lame-ass quotes to make the Smiths appear like totally ordinary folks.

Now here, wear these leather boots and fur hat Elton John’s fashion choices are getting some unwelcome attention in the Russian city of Krasnodar, where he’s set to perform a concert next month. Mikhail Abramyan, of the group Communists of Russia, condemns John’s wardrobe as “homosexual propaganda”

and wants him to instead perform in the traditional Cassock uniform of a “kneelength caftan, a fur hat and leather boots,” according to E! News. Abramyan and his organization are threatening to protest the show if John doesn’t comply.

Let’s go ride a bike

Welcome your kids to the wheel world

LIFE

YummyMummyClub.ca CEO and avid Cadbury Bicycle Factory supporter Erica Ehm speaks to the unexpected education one can acquire on a bicycle.

What can young ones learn from getting on a bicycle for the first time this summer? The first bike ride is a real bonding moment between parent and child. It’s really their first big opportunity for independence. It’s a very special moment. It can be tough for them at first — but it teaches persistence and fitness. It’s a very important message to instill in your

Want to be healthier? Juggle New study. Our expert weighs in on a report claiming moms who work outside the home enjoy better mental and physical health IT’S ALL RELATIVE Kathy Buckworth, kathybuckworth.com

A recent survey found women who worked full time outside the home after having children had better mental and physical health by age 40 than those who had not. This has of course raised interest, as one might assume that working full time while managing a family would be more stressful, and stress is a known factor in contributing to mental and physical challenges. It would appear that this isn’t necessarily accurate. Why would this be? Personally, I’m not entirely surprised by the findings. I think Albert Einstein had stayat-home moms in mind when he defined the word “insanity” as “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

Women who have kids and work full time have been found to have better mental and physical health by 40. ISTOCK

Have you ever been at home with young children? Have you tried to get them to clean up their rooms, pee into the toilet or stop hitting their sister? No matter how many times they are told (clearly it is not “nagging” when it is simply giving them excellent advice), the outcome is often the same. Nothing changes. At least not immediately, and not with-

out years of bribing and threats. Add to that the fact that my research (I drove around a bit) shows that there isn’t a big list moms can carpool to at the end of the day in order to check off: a) continued successfully raising child, b) ensured food was edible and in good portion size and c) minimum health standards were met. Many moms at home just

don’t get to feel that sense of accomplishment that comes with actually moving something forward and affecting change. Not in the short term, at any rate, and one of the most distressing things a parent of young children can hear from parents of older children is that it “never gets easy.” There’s no such thing as a performance review when

you’re on the home front: except for the ones you get from snarly teenage girls who aren’t necessarily focusing on your positive attributes, as the ones in a professional work environment might. Unless, “You suck” is now a good thing in the way that “that’s so sick” has become. (I do try.) The reward system for moms at home also leaves something to be desired. In that there really isn’t one, except for the playground high fives you exchange with a friend when your kid wasn’t the one kicking someone else off the slide. Compare this to the workplace, where most employees can expect to be treated with a modicum of respect, have performance reviews which don’t include door slamming (to be fair, there aren’t any doors in most cubicles), and best of all, they get to take on new responsibilities with the positive achievement of old ones. Being relieved at duties you’ve perfected is something moms at home never get to experience. Until the kids are the ones to leave home, that is.

Kicking it off once the cap comes off The parties, the pictures, and now, a profession? How to get your game face on after graduation For post-secondary graduates receiving degrees and diplomas in the weeks ahead, excitement over completing their programs may be tempered by the grim job landscape for Canada’s young people. The latest labour force survey from Statistics Canada revealed a decline of 19,000 jobs for youth aged

15 to 24 in April. The youth unemployment rate was at 14.5 per cent last month, little changed compared to a year earlier and more than double the national average. “When you see numbers like that, it can often give you the impression there really aren’t many jobs available in your area,” said Shirin Khamisa, a Toronto-based career counsellor and founder of Careers by Design. “Be very realistic and realize there is a general climate where there are less jobs, but that doesn’t mean you won’t be able to secure a job that’s right for you.” Khamisa and other ex-

Build a network Do you have any professional contacts in your area of study or field of expertise? If not, there’s no time like the present to start making connections. Attending industry events, joining a professional umbrella organization or engaging with individuals working in the field to ask about key needs in their area — and how you can fill them — could help build your network, said Khamisa. “That’s the really powerful thing in a job search when it’s a tighter market — to get that face time with people who are in the field you’d like to work in.” Another good way to obtain information and build a network is through informal interviews, said Bruno Castilloux, manager of career services at the University of Ottawa.

the company of interest to craft precise questions before calling to speak briefly with a representative to learn more.

Keep connected While many people will be keen to “jump right into job-search mode,” Khamisa said that’s not the best way to start a relationship with a potential contact. Khamisa said the job search should be a time of exploration. It’s often easier when individuals are initially seeking out information and learning about a particular industry and the needs of an organization before hunting for a specific position, she noted. “Reaching out and connecting takes courage ... and I guarantee you there will be times where people don’t get back to you

or are just too busy or aren’t receptive,” she said. “But the magic happens when you persevere and you keep going. And eventually, you will connect with a group of people who will help you and support you as you move forward.” Khamisa added she once had a client who developed 10 contacts through cold calling. She continued to keep in touch over several months and ended up getting three different job offers. Placing a phone call isn’t just limited to maintaining professional contacts. When individuals reach the stage where they’re submitting applications, a followup call is another way to show initiative, said Danielle Bragge, a partner with The Headhunters, a Canadian recruitment firm. It doesn’t have to be aggressive. The process can be as simple as an introduction, mentioning your interest in the opportunity you’ve applied for and highlighting three quick reasons you’d make a great addition to the team, Bragge said.

Officials said the man was escorting the crane as it moved Esteban Gutierrez’s car, which did not finish the Montreal race. The accident occurred shortly after Sebastian Vettel’s win. Officials did not immediately release the identity of the victim, but hospital officials said he was a volunteer at the track. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Back with a blowout, and no, the Miami Heat didn’t need LeBron James to do more. Not when Mario Chalmers and everyone else did everything right. Chalmers led the charge, James broke out to finish it with a flurry and the Heat used a 33-5 run to blow away the San Antonio Spurs 10384 on Sunday night to even the NBA Finals at one game apiece. James missed 10 of his first 13 shots and the Heat trailed by a point late in the third quarter before unleashing the lethal brand of basketball that led them to a franchiserecord 66 wins this season. Chalmers finished with 19 points, and James had 17 points, eight rebounds and seven assists while shooting only 7-for-17 from the field. “I know my shooters only need a little bit of room to get the shot off,” James said. “For me, I struggled offensively, but the shooters made some good shots.”

SCORING LEADERS

Jose Bautista trades words with umpire Gary Darling.

ninth and Bautista at the plate. The Toronto slugger didn’t like a called strike by umpire Gary Darling and it appeared to rattle him for the rest of the atbat. When Bautista struck out, he jawed with the umpire and was ejected from the game. Bautista has never been shy in voicing displeasure with umpire calls. Manager John Gibbons said he’s not concerned that his slugger might be getting a reputation. “It doesn’t help him, that’s for sure,” Gibbons said. “But it really hasn’t been a problem this year. Today it kind of blew up but look over the season, it really hasn’t been an issue. So we’ve just got to move on.” Bautista declined to speak with reporters after the game.

Horoscopes

Aries

Sept. 24 - Oct. 23 It’s time to get serious about your long-term aims and that means, inevitably, getting rid of certain short-term aims that eat up your time and your energy.

March 21 - April 20 Try to realize that not everyone thinks or feels the same way as you. A clash of viewpoints is likely today but it will only be a problem if you insist that you are right and others are wrong.

Scorpio

Taurus

Oct. 24 - Nov. 22 The planets will smooth your path as the new week begins and you will find it quite easy to get your way both in the professional sphere and in your private affairs.

April 21 - May 21 You may prefer to stick with what you know and trust today rather than take a risk on something new. That’s up to you, of course, but it’s also a shame because a little bit of courage could change your life completely.

Sagittarius

Nov. 23 - Dec. 21 Try not to let little things annoy you today because if your temper gets the better of you there is no telling where it might lead. Whatever other people might say or do treat it all as a big joke.

Gemini

May 22 - June 21 Keep telling yourself that the changes now taking place are not nearly as bad as some people claim. As a matter of fact they could actually be beneficial, for you anyway, so make sure you have a positive attitude.

Capricorn

Dec. 22 - Jan. 20 If a commitment of some sort is not working out then maybe you should cut your losses and get out. It won’t be easy but let common sense (and the contents of your wallet) guide you.

Cancer

June 22 - July 23 You are not as conformist as some people think and what you do over the next few days will prove that fact several times over. Expect a bit of a backlash though.

Aquarius

Jan. 21 - Feb. 19 Some things can be put off indefinitely because they are not really important but you have been putting off something that MUST be forced through to a conclusion. Make this the week when you finally crack it.

Leo

July 24 - Aug. 23 Try not to give too much away today, especially on the work front where knowledge is most definitely power. The less others know about what you are up to the more likely it is your efforts will be a success.
