NEWS WORTH SHARING.

Ford scandal widens with massive guns and drugs sweep Raids. Police search to dismantle gang known as Dixon City Bloods focuses on Dixon Road apartment block in Etobicoke Pre-dawn raids that netted guns, drugs and accused gang members Thursday were the culmination of more than a year of police work, but also the latest dramatic link to Mayor Rob Ford and an alleged crack-cocaine scandal that has embroiled city hall for almost a month. The investigation — dubbed Project Traveller — saw dozens of officers in tactical gear from 17 police agencies execute 39 search warrants in Toronto, Windsor and Edmonton. It has implicated some of those con-

nected to the mayor in photographs and who come from a neighbourhood central to the controversy over a video that appears to show Ford smoking what seems to be crack cocaine. Police officers used battering rams and “flash-bangs” and kicked in doors to carry out the warrants, leaving in their wake broken glass, splintered wood, black scars on apartment

floors and stunned families. According to sources with knowledge of the investigation, the existence of the video was caught up in surveillance conducted as part of Project Traveller — an unintended discovery by police while investigating gang activity that took place before Torstar News Service first published reports of Ford’s alleged substance abuse problems in March. Persons of interest to the investigation discussed the iPhone video, sources say. Search warrants show that police were also seeking cellphones, looking for audio and video recordings, in the multijurisdictional sweep. Among those arrested was Muhammad Khattak, 19, one of three men who appears in a now infamous photograph with Ford. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE MORE COVERAGE, PAGES 2 & 8

Tension mounts in Ford scandal

NEWS

Uncertainty. Coun. Josh Matlow says mayor is at the heart of the ‘dark cloud’ over city hall

Police Chief Bill Blair talks to the media Thursday about the Project Traveller raids. BERNARD WEIL/TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE ‘Nothing to do with Ford’

Raids not about mayor: Holyday Deputy Mayor Doug Holyday told reporters that, while he does not believe the raids directly involve Mayor Ford, he hopes they turn up the

90-second cellphone video so questions about it can finally be put to rest. “I’d love to see the video, yeah, I think it would settle things,” and it might not show what the reporters who saw it believe it does, he said. Holyday said information

“I have nothing to hide,” Mayor Rob Ford declared after Police Chief Bill Blair refused to say if a major guns and drug trafficking probe involves Ford or his office. Asked if he is worried that his name will surface in Project Traveller, Ford told reporters at city hall Thursday: “They can investigate and you can do whatever you want ... I have nothing to hide.” He thanked police for “going into these places where there are guns and removing them off the street. That’s what you call good police work.” Blair told a news conference that Thursday morning raids focused on Dixon Avenue apartments, producing 40 firearms, $3 million worth of drugs and new arrests that bring to 43 the number in the year-old probe. Blair refused to say whether Ford is connected to the evidence, what was seized or how it was obtained, or to comment on the fact that police in the media suggests the extensive raid was planned some time ago, and “that it has nothing do with Rob Ford. “The only thing that connected the mayor to that building at all is that somebody phoned the mayor’s office and said that one of

“What transpired today is another example of why it’s essential for the mayor to clearly and definitively address the allegations or take a leave. I think Torontonians want and deserve answers.” Coun. Jaye Robinson Referring to the morning raids on Thursday

raided the home of a shooting victim who appears in a photo with homicide victim Anthony Smith and the mayor. “All of the evidence has been secured and it will come out in court, where it belongs,” Blair said. After news of the raids broke Thursday morning, Ford’s acting chief of staff, Earl Provost, called police asking for information. Police spokesman Mark Pugash said Provost was given information already made public. Ford, again facing reporters outside his office, said: “You guys can’t get it through your thick skulls. I’ve already answered all these questions. I their neighbours was dealing drugs, would you stop it, and the mayor said, ‘Fine, I’ll turn it over to the police,’ and that’s what he did.” Neither Ford nor his staff have confirmed that account, or that he passed such information to police. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

have nothing to do with this.” But it wasn’t just reporters asking questions. Chatter about the raids buzzed around the chamber during a council session that featured exchanges hot-tempered even by Toronto City Hall standards. Coun. Jaye Robinson, fired by Ford from the executive committee earlier this week after urging him to either honestly answer questions or take a leave of absence, was not surprised that questions continue to swirl. “The allegations and the events unfold, and there are indications that there is more to come, that this is escalating,” Robinson, a former manager in the city’s economic development department, told Torstar News Service. Coun. Josh Matlow noted the mounting questions about the video’s content, why Ford was photographed outside a suspected drug house with two men who were later shot, if Ford indeed had long known an occupant of that house, and now, what police knew about the video and when. “There is still a dark cloud hanging over city hall and at the heart of it is the mayor,” Matlow said.

Mayor Rob Ford was one of only three members of council to vote Thursday against giving city money to Pride, the Toronto International Film Festival, the Art Gallery of Ontario, and other major cultural organizations. The annual grants, totaling about $7 million, were approved 32-3, with Coun. Doug Ford and Deputy Mayor Doug Holyday voting in favour. Rob Ford was joined by Mike Del Grande, the conservative forPublic works study

mer budget chief, and David Shiner, a pro-Israel conservative who strongly opposes the participation of Queers Against Israeli Apartheid in the Pride parade. Ford has angered the gay community with inflammatory comments and his refusal to attend the Pride parade. He did not explain his vote. “Again, he’s basically saying that this is not a community of importance to him; it’s actually a community which he rejects. This is our most significant cultural celebration, this is the 33rd year of Pride, and our invitation for him to march in the parade and to celebrate with us has for three years been rejected,” said Kristyn WongTam, the only openly gay councillor. Ford said in a June 1 radio interview that he will again There will be blood

Who’s getting what?

Pride’s 2013 grant is $140,000, up about $16,000 from last year. • The Canadian Opera Company will get $1.4 million, the National Ballet of Canada and Toronto Symphony Orchestra $1.2 million each, TIFF $950,000, the AGO $575,000, and the Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival $525,000.

City mulls how to handle full landfill

Lend an arm on Blood Donor Day

Woman charged in abduction, theft

It was just six years ago that Toronto bought the Green Lane landfill, but the city is already considering a range of options for the day it fills up. The city’s public works committee is thinking about hiring consultants to do a study on the possibilities: everything from boosting recycling to incineration and other disposal technologies. The study, to be completed by 2015, would cost $950,000.

Friday is World Blood Donor Day and Canadian Blood Services sends a big “Thanks!” to all the blood donors in the GTA. They are also asking Canadians to remember to lend an arm this summer and help save lives. Patients in 49 hospitals across the city are depending on donors to help save or improve their lives after trauma, disease and other illnesses. For June, at least 12,000 units of blood are needed to meet these patients’ needs. Metro

Dana Lee, a 28-year-old Toronto woman, is facing 104 charges in a kidnapping and armed robbery investigation. The charges arise from a September 2012 incident in which a 42-yearold man was abducted from an underground parking lot of a Toronto condominium building. Police say the man was pistol-whipped and forced into a van, blindfolded, tied up and taken to a house in the Highway 401 and Highway 404 area.

TORONTO MOVES: FOR ROUTES, SCHEDULES, FARES AND MORE, GO TO TTC.CA

SERVICE RELIABILITY A KEY ELEMENT IN TTC CORPORATE PLAN T

ANDY BYFORD CEO TORONTO TRANSIT COMMISSION

he recently released TTC Five-Year Corporate Plan contains a number of initiatives that will improve service reliability on our subway, buses and streetcars. These include infrastructure changes, right through to better real-time management by staff out on the ground. Our investment plans include upgrades to our fleet to provide more modern, reliable vehicles, plus less visible but equally important work to renew subway track, pumps and drains – all of which need to work reliably to avoid delay. We are also working with the City of Toronto to identify changes to traffic signals and road capacity to keep

our bus and streetcar routes moving effectively. On a daily basis, we review the previous day’s performance on each of our modes to drill down into the root cause of every delay incident. This data is then used to build business cases for infrastructure renewal, but to also identify things that we need to do better in terms of staff performance, attention to detail and how we deliver basic operations. Every four weeks, we review performance trends to see if our plans are working or if more needs to be done. Riders can do their part to help keep the service running smoothly, as well. Compared to other subway systems, the TTC

witnesses a disproportionately high number of passenger-assistance alarm activations. In 2012, there were 2,474 alarms activated on the subway system, resulting in 6,245 minutes of delay. Many of these incidents are entirely justified, due to customer illness or other emergency. But a good number of the activations are deemed non-emergency (1,768 of 2,474 or 71 per cent). A better option in some cases would be to exit the train during a non-emergency and seek assistance from the Station Collector. With a holistic approach, we can make fundamental improvement to service reliability to everyone’s benefit.

Transit Control is the nerve centre of TTC operations, where a team of supervisors and dispatchers monitor every bus, streetcar, and subway/RT route in the city, 24 hours a day. Bringing together operations, power and equipment personnel, Transit Control is responsible for keeping the system running safely for the 1.7 million riders who depend on our service daily. Tower controllers and wayside supervisors monitor the subway and SRT lines, meticulously watching the video wall to ensure punctual, safe and efficient service is delivered to TTC customers. In the event of an emergency situation, staff act quickly to stop trains from entering affected areas and adjust service levels according to the situation as it develops. This could involve station bypass, turn-backs or shuttle buses. As soon as the emergency has cleared, they work to restore service to normal levels as quickly as possible. Dispatchers serve in a number of different roles, including receiving emergency calls from TTC customers

PAPE STATION CLOSURE POSTPONED The Toronto Transit Commission’s planned June 15-26 closure of Pape Station has been postponed due to a labour disruption involving the Terrazzo, Tile and Marble Guild of Ontario that began on Friday, May 31.

Working closely with Toronto Fire, Police and EMS, dispatchers are engaged in any potential emergencies including collisions, police road closures, injured customers, or assaults, and work to maintain safety and security of TTC customers and staff. As a critical communications link between TTC operators across the city and emergency services, Transit Control staff provide immediate assistance to customers, motorists, and bystanders as emergencies arise. Communications specialists within Transit Control are responsible for getting service related information to the public through station public-address announcements, the TTC website, eAlerts, Twitter, Facebook, Platform Video Screens, and Station Information Screens. Whether it’s a subway delay or streetcar diversion, Transit Control is there to provide support and document all events. That information is logged at the end of each night and analyzed to improve service and safety throughout the TTC. labour dispute does not involve TTC workers or the unions that represent them.

Raid has cut off huge pipeline of guns, says Blair Forty seized. Part of a chain through Interstate 75 north to Detroit, then to Windsor and Toronto

Police carry bags of goods seized from the house of Muhammed Khattak, the third person seen in the photograph with Mayor Rob Ford outside of 15 Windsor Rd. Rick Madonik/TorStar News Service

After Thursday morning’s raid, Chief Bill Blair said police had cut off a major pipeline of guns flowing from the U.S. through Windsor to Toronto streets. Forty guns were seized, “and that’s going to make the city ... a safer place,” Blair said at a noon press conference. While Blair said that lawenforcement agencies spent months working to choke the supply chain for the groups targeted in the large-scale investigation, hundreds of crime guns get across the border every

Those states have one thing in common: They are intersected by Interstate 75, which runs north from Florida to the Detroit-Windsor crossing and then onto Highway 401. Waiting at the end of the chain, where comparatively strict Canadian laws make possession difficult, Toronto criminals desperate for firepower are willing to pay top dollar for economy brands of semiautomatics.

Local police seize an average of 900 crime guns every year, 70 per cent of which have already been smuggled from the U.S. According to a 2010 internal report on gun-smuggling obtained by Torstar, Border Services intercepted just nine crime guns they believed were headed for the criminal market. The Torstar investigation showed the majority of U.S. guns originate in six states: Florida, Georgia, Tennessee,

Teachers’ raise comes at a cost Tentative deal. Critics say hike will take funds away from students Ontario’s elementary teachers credit their high-pressure tactics for finally reaching a tentative deal with the province — one that gives them a catch-up raise of two per cent in 2014 that will end up costing the government $112 million a year. Education Minister Liz Sandals denied opposition charges that the government is using taxpayers’ money to shore up relations with the teachers’ union. “I’m looking to have good relations with teachers,” Sandals said. “I think parents and grandparents actually are taxpayers and would also say, ‘Why do you pay Catholic teachers and French teachers more than you pay public teachers?’” The English public elementary teachers were hit with the two per cent wage penalty after bungled negotiations in

The thousands they lost in wages over the six years will not be made up. The bump in pay came as a surprise to many, especially after a tumultuous school year that saw one-day strikes, a boycott of extracurricular activities as well as bare-bones fall report cards that soured relations with students and parents in schools. torstar news service

A tentative deal between elementary teachers and the provincial government may be the final step to labour peace in schools, but it comes too late to save traditional graduation dances or end-of-year concerts for a handful of Toronto public schools. While activities such as field trips and after-school gardening clubs have resumed at most schools, there are a few pockets where labour turmoil still exists. And that’s led to confusion and tense relations between principals, staff and parents, who wonder why their schools continue to be targeted. The government and elementary union announced a tentative agreement on Thursday morning. Teachers are to vote electronically on the deal until June 22, just days before the end of the school year. torstar news service

One of the two drivers stopped the train on seeing the suspected rebels and fled, an officer said. The dead were a security guard and two passengers. The other train driver suffered bullet wounds.

More Afghan kids becoming casualties of war: UNICEF Taliban blamed. Figures show 56% of child deaths caused by insurgents and 14% by security forces The number of children killed and injured in Afghanistan’s war has risen sharply this year, the UN Children’s Fund said, calling the trend “unacceptable” and “very worrying.” At least 414 children were killed or injured in the first four months of this year, up 27 per cent over the same period the previous year, UNICEF said. Of those, 121 children were killed and 293 were injured through April 30, UNICEF said in figures released Thursday.

Cops raid PM’s office building, arrest senior aide

Municipal workers clean up graffiti in Istanbul’s Taksim Square on Thursday. Turkey’s government this week proposed a referendum on a development project in Istanbul that triggered demonstrations that have become the biggest challenge to Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s tenure. Thanassis Stavrakis/the associated press

Turkish PM demands an end to occupation of park Protest. But Erdogan agrees to meet with protesters in a sign he might negotiate Turkey’s prime minister issued a “final warning” to protesters on Thursday, demanding they end their occupation of a park next to Istanbul’s Taksim Square that has

ignited the largest political crisis of his 10-year rule. Despite the ultimatum by Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, thousands of activists camping out in Gezi Park dug in for a potential culmination of their two-week standoff with authorities. A violent police crackdown May 31 on a small sit-in to protect trees in Gezi Park sparked the protests that spread to dozens of cities. the associated press

Peace over violence?

• Erdogan was to meet late Thursday night with representatives of the protesters, including Taksim Solidarity. But that group does not speak for the thousands of protesters camping out in the park, so even if a deal is reached the sit-in may not end.

The anti-organized crime unit in the Czech Republic has carried out raids at the Office of the Government, where Prime Minister Petr Necas is based, and at the Defence Ministry and other places across the country, police said on Thursday. In comments to journalists, Necas confirmed that Jana Nagyova, the director of his office, was among those arrested. He said he would stand by her. “At the moment, I have no information that would prove any criminal activity of my collaborators,” Necas said. Police spokesman Pavel Hantak declined to identify any of those arrested. Necas called on the police and prosecutors to “immediately give reasons for such a massive action.” The Social Democrats, the main opposition party, called for Necas to resign. the associated press

Ireland. Hospital bungled miscarrying case: Experts A miscarrying woman who died in an Irish hospital should have had her blood poisoning detected much sooner and been offered an abortion to improve her odds of survival, an experts’ report concluded Thursday in a case that is forcing Ireland to modernize its abortion laws. The 108-page report into the October death of Savita Halappanavar documented what the lead investigator described as “a cascade of mistakes” overshadowed by officials’ refusal to remove the fetus until its heart stopped beating. That took four days. By then, the report found, the woman’s ill-diagnosed sepsis from a ruptured uterus already had reached lethal levels. “If it was my case, I would have terminated the pregnancy,” said Dr. Sabaratnam Arulkumaran, a London professor of obstetrics and gynecology who led the seven-month probe. The five investigators found that a chain of doctors and nurses all failed to take proactive steps to identify and halt the spread of infection throughout her body. The report found that when The Hague

Request rejected The International Criminal Court has rejected a request by clergy sex-abuse victims to investigate former Pope Benedict XVI and Vatican cardinals for possible crimes against humanity. The tribunal told attorneys for the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests that “there is not a basis at this time to proceed with further analysis.” Pam Spees, senior staff attorney for the Centre for Constitutional Rights, said her group was confident it could collect enough evidence as new abuse victims come forward. the associated press

Procedure questioned

The legal limbo has left Irish maternity hospitals and obstetricians to guess when they could perform an abortion to save a woman’s life without facing the risk of a murder charge.

Halappanavar, a 31-year-old Indian dentist living in the western city of Galway, was hospitalized for back pain 17 weeks into her pregnancy, doctors identified she was miscarrying and the fetus could not survive. But they consistently missed evidence for days pointing to an existing case of sepsis, or blood poisoning, as the cause. Blood-test results were left uninspected and successive shifts failed to read earlier medical notes as vital signs worsened. The report found that doctors placed too much emphasis on measuring the fetus’ heartbeat and too little on investigating why Halappanavar’s white blood-cell count was jumping and her blood pressure was falling. the associated press Vatican City

Pope’s leprosy remark criticized The UN goodwill ambassador for eliminating leprosy has written to Pope Francis complaining about his recent comment that careerism among Catholic Church officials was “a leprosy.” In a letter to Francis, Ambassador Yohei Sasakawa wrote that such remarks can reinforce discrimination against leprosy patients and their families. He said he feared the Argentine-born pope’s comments could have a big impact in South America, where there are more cases of the illness. the associated press

Prime Minister Stephen Harper thanked British counterpart David Cameron for his “robust advocacy” of a free-trade pact between Canada and the European Union during his address on Thursday in London to British parliamentarians. The half-hour speech, touching on everything from the economy to global security and the values Canada shares with the United King-

dom, included a pitch for the prized trade agreement long sought by Harper’s Conservative government. “It remains our hope that we will soon achieve a comprehensive economic and trade agreement with the European Union, Canada’s second-largest trading partner after the United States,” Harper said. “For Canada, and for Great Britain as a member of the

EU, this will be a historic step — a monumental one, in fact: A joint Canada-EU study has shown that a commercial agreement of this type would increase two-way trade by 20 per cent.” Canadian negotiators are under growing pressure to broker a deal with the Europeans before they turn their attention to free-trade talks with the United States. Among

the issues believed to be on the table are financial services, Canadian beef exports, procurement limits for provinces and municipalities and drugpatent protection. However, Harper insisted this week that an “artificial timeline” will not loom over the talks, and that a deal will not be signed unless it is in Canada’s best interests. the canadian press

Prostitution debate heats up in top court Case divides groups. Sex workers pitted against those trying to help poor, drug-addicts and underaged who become prostitutes The Supreme Court of Canada grappled on Thursday with whether Canada’s prostitution law is at odds with the Constitution as demonstrators on both sides of the debate gathered outside to express their views. Federal lawyer Michael Morris argued that the Ontario Court of Appeal went too far last year when it struck down the Criminal Code ban on bawdy houses on the grounds that it endangers sex workers by forcing them to work outside. “In the face of a complex

social problem, uncertainty and contradicting socialscience evidence, we submit that the Ontario Court of Appeal erred,” Morris told the court. Lawyers for the Province of Ontario also argued against decriminalization. Several justices made the point that prostitution itself is not in fact illegal, and raised questions about how that should affect many of the key activities related to it that are banned under sections of the Criminal Code. Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin, for instance, raised the question of whether that means prostitutes ought to be able to hire security guards and work in secure brothels, off the street. “It could be Brinks or somebody. I’m not sure they’re in that business,” she said, sparking muted laughter in the court.

The Ontario Court of Appeal struck down the section that forbids brothels, but it upheld a ban on communication for the purposes of prostitution, which makes street prostitution illegal. The court also imposed limits on the section that prohibits living off the avails of prostitution to exclude people such as a sex worker’s bodyguard, accountant or receptionist. It said the provision should apply only “in circumstances of exploitation.” Federal and provincial lawyers are arguing that the intent of Parliament is to impose limits on prostitution. “The assertion that prostitution is legal in Canada is misleading. Prostitution has always been and remains more illegal than legal in Canada,” argued lawyer Jamie Klukach, appearing for the Ontario Attorney General. the canadian press

Via Rail says if its customer service and other employees go on strike this week, management will continue to offer basic railway services. Adrian Wyld/the canadian press

Strike could halt Via Rail in its tracks Latest proposal. Via Rail offer has wage increases but also calls for higher pension contributions The union representing some workers at Via Rail said the company’s offer on the table Thursday would reduce wages, rather than increase them, once higher pension contributions are considered, and it said it was doubtful an agreement could be reached in time to avert a strike. “What the company wants to do is increase employees’ pension contributions substantially over the next three years,” said Bob Orr, assistant to the president of the Can-

adian Auto Workers Union. The union represents about 2,000 of Via’s customer-service employees, as well as on-board service and maintenance workers at the railway company. Orr’s comments came only hours before Friday’s 12:01 a.m. strike deadline. Via Rail presented its latest proposal on Wednesday, offering wage increases of two per cent every year for three years. But the offer also includes higher employee contributions to the pension plan that the union says would result in members taking home less money, not more. Via said its employees need to contribute more to the pension because it currently faces a $419-million deficit. “There are no major concessions that are being asked

Al-Qaida remains Canada’s biggest terrorist threat even though the group has weakened in recent years, Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said on Thursday. “Global violent extremist groups, such as al-Qaida, have been the leading terrorist threat to Canada for many years — this has not changed,” Toews said. “Canada is still a priority target.” In total, 36 Canadians have died in terrorist attacks since 2001, all in other countries, according to the report, which identifies homegrown extremism as a key threat to Canadian security. the canadian press

Defence Minister Peter MacKay quietly issued new instructions to Canada’s electronic eavesdropping agency that detail how and when it can help CSIS and the RCMP investigate Canadians, records show. Briefing notes obtained under the Access to Information Act say the directive to the Ottawa-based Communications Security Establishment was one of seven such ministerial instructions issued in 2011. The CSE monitors foreign computer, satellite, radio and telephone traffic to zero in on threats to Canada and gather intelligence. It is not supposed to direct its activities at Canadians.

The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled companies cannot patent parts of naturally-occurring human genes, a decision with the potential to profoundly affect the emerging and lucrative medical and biotechnology industries. The high court’s unanimous judgment reverses three decades of patent awards by government officials. It throws out patents held by Salt Lake City-based Myriad Genetics Inc. on an increasingly popular breast cancer test brought into the public eye recently by actress Angelina Jolie’s revelation that she had T:11.5”

Reel Guys

RICHARD CROUSE AND MARK BRESLIN

Up, up and ... it’s OK Man of Steel. Superman origin story has too much bang and not enough phone booths Richard: Mark, Man of Steel plays kind of like a Nirvana song. It starts off quiet, then gets loud, then quiet again and then REALLY loud. Thing is Nirvana songs were usually under four minutes and this movie clocks in at well over two hours. Much of it is entertaining, but I have to say my eyeballs felt scorched after the protracted blow-’em-up scene that eats up much of the last 45 minutes of the movie. It’s all crash-boom-bang and not nearly as interesting as the

stuff that preceded it. Mark: Richard, I always liked the Superman movies — even the bad ones — for their charm. Although there’s some good scenes toward the beginning of the movie, it becomes bombastic and self-righteous; way too serious for its own good. That 45-minute scene you’re referring to made me long for headphones with Enya songs playing on a long loop. And I know it’s an origin movie, but I longed for the comic contrast between Superman and his journalist alter ego Clark Kent, which is mostly missing from the movie. Then again, we no longer have phone booths. Any of the actors appeal to you, Richard? RC: I thought Cavill was suit-

ably square-jawed and blueeyed enough to play the icon lead character and Michael Shannon brought the crazy (as usual for him) to Zod, but I was let down by two other leads. Russell Crowe was fine, although I couldn’t help but imagine Ralph Fiennes really eating up the role of Jor-El. Finally, I’m not sure Amy Adams is plucky enough to play Lois Lane.

dollars, it was often close to a Flash Gordon serial at times.

MB: Cavill was square — I mean — square-jawed, wasn’t he? Crowe was fine, but somehow Kevin Costner got to me in a very sentimental turn as Clark’s dad. As for Michael Shannon, I can only assume he was forced to overact at gunpoint, with lines like “Unleash the world machine!!!!” For a movie that cost a few hundred million

MB: And did you notice that so many of the action scenes had the same basic gimmick — concrete being torn up over and over again? And I had to laugh when the entire city of Metropolis is collapsing under alien attack and there are scenes of people just staring at the buildings falling around them. If I see one brick on the ground, I’m outta there!

SCENE

The story begins on Krypton, as all good Superman origin stories must. To save his son Kal-El from perishing on the doomed planet, Jor-El (Russell Crowe) rockets him off to a safe haven — Earth. There he is raised by Ma and Pa Kent, (Diane Lane and Kevin Costner), humble farmers who raise Clark Kent (Henry Cavill) as their own and keep his alien heritage a secret, but his extraordinary powers are exposed when a snoopy reporter (Amy Adams) digs into his life and the last surviving Kryptonians, led by General Zod (Michael Shannon) try and invade the planet.

RC: I think I wanted more Flash Gordon and less of what was on the screen in front of me. It’s an entertaining movie for much of its running time, but the word overkill comes to mind. I feel like less — shorter running time, fewer explosions, not as many fights — would have been more.

How to be a superhero Preparation. No need for a brain to be all brawn Bruce Banner (The Hulk) is an ingenious scientist, Peter Parker (Spider-Man) is a whiz kid at school — even billionaire playboy Tony Stark (Iron Man) is a brilliant engineer. So to be a superhero you need to be a genius or have a PhD, right? Wrong. “Captain America wasn’t a PhD. Most of the X-Men didn’t have great educations particularly,” says Marvel man Stan Lee, creator of all of the above.

the hulk

Background. The past is passé

Name. Be original, somehow

Some of our favourite superheroes brood over their dark past — Bruce Wayne (Batman) witnessed his parents’ murder as a child, and Wolverine was a guinea pig in a secret government experiment that’s mentally scarred him. Painful origins do make for an alluring character — so, would you embellish your own personal history to make your superhero stand out? “My advice would be forget the past,” Lee says. “Think of the future, and think of all the good you can do with your superpower.” Wolverine

He’s been writing comic books for more than 70 years, has conjured up some 350 superheroes and villains, like Doctor Strange, but Lee still admits “coming up with a name is the most difficult part in creating a superhero. ... When I come up with a new character, I’ll come up with a name that I think is great, and then I Google it and I’ll see 500 names just like that for other characters,” he says.

Finishing touches. An apt outfit ... and a fantastic catchphrase

daredevil

doctor strange

Choosing the right costume depends on what superpower you possess, Lee reveals. “If you’re going to be moving around a lot, something tight is the best. If your power is mental, you don’t need a tight costume.” And forget a histrionic, husky voice à la Batman. “The phrases a hero says are the things your audience will remember — if they’re good.”

Traits. It’s all down to Lady Luck “The one attribute that everybody would want to have is luck,” says Lee. “If you’re a superhero and you’re chasing a bad guy, you’ll chase him because you’re lucky. If he’ll shoot at you, he’ll miss because you’re lucky,” he says. (Daredevil, blind but heroic, comes to mind.) “Think of it as a beautiful woman, a spectral form of a ghost — she’s not real, but every time she puts her arms around you, you become lucky.” T:4.921”

Chris Hardwick, creator of the Nerdist podcast and YouTube channel, explains to us why Superman has to be more human nowadays “We’ve definitely become more of a culture of wanting to identify with characters rather than wanting to see characters that we couldn’t be. It’s not just movies and superheroes. When you look at protagonists in television, they’re kind of crappy people. There’s Don Draper or Dexter or Walter White. They’re not good or bad — they’re muddy. What you see coming out now — after the era of ’90s superhero movies — is sort of like the transition between glam rock and grunge, where you have the square-jawed heroes being phased out. They’re kind of one-dimensional, there’s not really much of an arc, they’re just there to facilitate all of the action and just sort of be the opposing force to evil. But now people want to see more humanity, and I honestly think that has a lot to do with the Internet. The way we interact with the Internet, the way that we’re all in each other’s business with YouTube and

I have so many feelings: Superman. handout

blogs, we’re just used to seeing humans, and that’s what we’re identifying with, seeing other humans. People are bored by the one-dimensional, ‘Oh, he can do anything’ hero because what’s at stake then? What are they battling? We’ve seen so much of it up to this point that the one place that superheroes hadn’t really gone, at least in

film yet, is inward. What works in Man of Steel is just the idea of taking the heroes off the pedestal and going, ‘They’re still … if not humans, then creatures. Creatures with struggles.’ Because that’s what people get wrapped up in, story and struggle and not just, ‘Oh look, he’s better than everyone else.’ It’s the idea that he’s not better than everyone. And Superman has a lot of struggles in the movie, more so than just, ‘Oh, he’s got super powers and he beats the crap out of those guys and it’s all going to be fine because he’s indestructible.’ People have seen that. You still want your healthy dose of action scenes, but then you want to identify with the characters.” Ned Ehrbar/MWN

••••• While covering the war in Afghanistan, investigative journalist Jeremy Scahill learned of a secret U.S. night raid that left several dead, including two pregnant Afghan women. Investigating the raid leads Scahill to other accounts of targeted killings and soon he is down the rabbit hole uncovering a covert American war that is quickly spinning out of control. regan reid

Those who recognize Joss Whedon mainly as the magical man in charge of The Avengers should walk into Much Ado About Nothing restraining any bombastic expectation. Filmed in black and white at his own mansion with little-known actors/friends, this low-budget adaptation of Shakespeare’s comedic romance about two pairs of lovers with varied perspectives on love may fascinate fans of the Bard’s prominent prose much more than the comic-book convention crowd.

Despite what Eddie Murphy might have you think, playing multiple roles in a single film isn’t a recipe for success. Yet that hasn’t stopped Victor Altomare from adopting a slew of poorly executed and often offensive characters for this low-budget crime comedy. Equal parts Tarantinopastiche and Who’s Harry Crumb, the plot, circling around a just-out-of-prison dirt-bag and a kidnapped girl, is nothing more than an excuse for Altomare to run wild dressed up in whatever the Asian equivalent of blackface is.

people without formal education to do the work of dental assistants. Dental assistants take radiographs, are responsible for infection control and may perform other intra-oral duties. The Ontario Dental Assistants Association (ODAA), the certifying body for Ontario dental assistants feels this is a matter of public safety.

Monsters University. Early audiences have warmed to Charlie Day’s character in new animated film

Metro World News in Hollywood

As the furry purple oddball Art in Monsters University, Charlie Day walks away with nearly every scene he’s in, which isn’t surprising since his monster is mostly just a pair of legs with a face where the crotch would be. Among early audiences, Art is fast becoming a favourite — or at least that’s what people are telling Day. “Well, people have been saying that to me, and I don’t know what their ulterior motives are, but I appreciate it,” Day tells Metro.

There is just something captivating about Art. You know, he’s a crazy guy. He’s filled with the absurd non-sequiturs. He’s positive, he’s an optimist and he’s been to jail. What’s cooler than that? And then the best thing is you get to see what it would be like to be all legs. Legs for days, this guy.

How much were you involved in the design and development? I did all the design myself. I did all the drawings, I did most of the movie (laughs). No, I did nothing. I did absolutely nothing. By the time I showed up here they had already animated a scene using lines from It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia with the character. I almost feel like they could’ve taken certain words that I’ve said from things and cobbled together the entire performance, but they were nice enough to let me do some of the work. What was your own college experience like? I didn’t go to as large a school (as Monsters University), and there wasn’t really much Greek life on campus. I went to a school called Merrimack College in North Andover, Mass., about 20 minutes

or so north of Boston. I had a lot of friends and met new people and got new ideas and became a better thinker and a more well-rounded person up there. I loved it. Did you start off college with one idea of what you were going to do with your life and end up with another? Yes. Well … I was a huge baseball guy growing up, as was everyone in my town. I was passionate about it, I worked really hard at it and I was half-way decent at it, but not ultimately good enough. And by college I realized that it’s not going to go any further, and then I started dabbling in acting and the arts, and all that came much easier and more naturally to me (laughs).

The sun is still shining...

Charlie Day got his start with the off-beat FX comedy It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and he has no plans of stopping the series now — at least not this year. “We’re almost done filming the ninth season. Nine seasons,” he says with eyes wide. “We were celebrating our 100th episode the other day. It’s been a wonderful decade of a lot of laughs. We definitely are going to do a 10th season, and after that I don’t know. It depends on if FX wants to keep it going or not. I think creatively we’re open to it. I still feel like we’re finding new and interesting things for these characters to do and say.”

True Blood stardom means free food perks Rob Kazinsky. British actor joins cast and talks about experience of shooting U.S. series Ned Ehrbar

Metro World News in Hollywood

This season on True Blood, there’s a new faerie in town with Rob Kazinsky’s Ben Flynn, a supernatural love interest for Sookie Stackhouse (Anna Paquin). The British actor is aware his introduction will likely rile some of the show’s relationship-obsessed fans, but he’s just happy to have a job that comes with free snacks. So, any trepidation about coming on as a new love

interest for Sookie? I am 100 per cent certain that I am going to be absolutely hated by everyone. Team Eric’s going to hate me, Team Bill’s going to hate me, Team Alcide — they’re all going to absolutely loathe this guy just because he’s not them. And I am prepared for that backlash. However I think in time people will come to realize that Ben, for the first time, offers a chance at happiness that none of those guys could ever give her. He is essentially a much more honest and a much more accessible guy than everybody else. But that certainly doesn’t mean he’s boring. How does this compare to your time on the British soap opera Eastenders? Different worlds. Vastly

different worlds. I did 254 episodes of Eastenders and averaged about 85 episodes a year, shooting anywhere between 30 and 50 pages of dialogue a day. And then this, we’re doing 10 episodes a year, so it’s a slightly different machine. (laughs) The whole way everything goes on here in America is very, very different to how it’s run in England. The biggest difference to me is always craft services. Having free food on set is just the best thing that’s ever happened to anybody ever. Is craft service really not a thing in England? For the BBC there’s no such thing as crafty or free food. At Eastenders there wasn’t, anyway. So having doughnuts on set? Wonderful. Fresh fruit all

the time? Having a coffee machine instead of having to pay three pounds for your coffee every time you want one? Oh my God, it’s great. This is news to me. I feel like my only exposure to British TV production was Extras, which looked more in line with American setup. I think that was the idea so that it would be universally sellable. I mean, my experience in England is fairly limited to the soap that I did and the one other TV show I did. The way they do it [in the U.S.], when I did Brothers and Sisters, Law & Order, everything, it’s a much easier place to be off-set, you know what I mean? There’s much more to do when you’re not working. Mind the app

The look of choice on Queen Street West in Toronto Sunday night might well be Thierry Lasry shades and drop-crotch pants as music fans gather for the block party of the year. Crossover K-Pop sensation PSY is sharing hosting duties at MuchMusic’s annual MMVA bash along with VJ’s Scott Willats and Lauren Toyota. Remember the Gentleman singer’s style code: “dress classy to dance cheesy.” Set the mood with the Red Carpet special at 8 p.m. ET and then the party airs live on MuchMusic, and on Fuse in the U.S. at 9 p.m. ET. Here’s five reasons why you should tune in, or even better, turn up!

Red carpet roll up Arriving in style is a hallmark of the MMVAs. In past years we’ve had Billy Talent roll up atop a Second World War era Sherman Tank on loan from an Ontario museum, Simple Plan cruise up in a pink limousine with band members rocking short white shorts and midriff-baring tees, and Katy Perry serving up cool treats in an ice cream truck. When it comes to outlandish entrances, Marianas Trench, who leads the pack this year with six nomination nods, typically takes the cake. In past years, the Vancouver pop-rockers have come to the carpet in a hot tub, human-size hamster balls and even a mobile bouncy house.

reasons to watch this year’s MMVAs

Video of the year This is the biggie. Could it go to nominations leader Marianas Trench for Desperate Measures, where frontman Josh Ramsay channels Tom Cruise circa Risky Business and Toy Story’s Woody, or perhaps Drake reliving his coming up days and hamming it up at Shoppers Drug Mart in Started from the Bottom? The other contenders in the mix are Serena Ryder for Stompa, The Weeknd for Wicked Games, and Classified for Inner Ninja.

Taking to the stage

Handling hot hardware

Artists leave it all on the stage at the MMVAs — from Avril Lavigne’s cheek-revealing rendition of Complicated back in 2002 (which she had fun with the following year with some intentional mooning action) to Lady Gaga’s electric medley a few years back that culminated with fireworks shooting out of her bustier. This year PSY, the master of cheesy dance moves, may treat us to the wild gyrations that accompany Gentleman, his viral smash — the video has more than 400 million YouTube views — or kick it relatively old school by social media standards with Gangnam Style. Regardless, the performance slate for the MMVAs is dripping with hot artists that will keep audiences moving. The lineup includes Demi Lovato, Armin Van Buuren featuring Trevor Guthrie, Ed Sheeran and Marianas Trench.

The MMVAS have been kind to these Mississauga punk rockers in the past, feting them with 29 nominations and nine wins. But they may want to clear off some shelf space on the mantle. The video for Surprise Surprise is on the ballot in a trio of categories, so they’re in spitting distance of surpassing Our Lady Peace’s all-time record haul of 10 wins. Who is the queen of the MMVAs? Look no further than Avril Lavigne, who’ll notch her fifth MMVA performance (the most of any artist) this year.

Taylor Swift is sticking around town after a pair of sold out shows at the Rogers Centre to hand out an award. Among the presenters joining T-Swizzle in distributing MMVAs to their worthy recipients are a bevy of faces sure to illicit teen squeals when they take the stage: Teen Wolf’s alpha heartthrob Tyler Hoechlin, Revenge’s Joshua Bowman, Glee’s Naya Rivera, Big Bang Theory’s Kunal Nayyar, Arrow’s Stephen Amell (pictured) and Suits’ Patrick J. Adams, to name a few.

Banal boat duty highlights redundancy of the Royals

One Direction’s Harry Styles is giving Justin Bieber a run for his money when it comes to accumulating body art. It’s tough to say which 19-yearold pop star has more body art at this point, but Styles is at least being a bit bolder with his references: The Brit showed off a pair of George Michael-inspired ankle tat-

Evidence that the Royals are just redundant figureheads: one super important royal duty that the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton had to take care of recently included blessing the newest ship in the Princess Cruises fleet. The only woman capable of such a lofty task, the very pregnant Kate apparently smashed a giant champagne bottle on the cruise ship’s helm in order to officially christen it “Royal Princess.”

Martinez may be French, but Berry will have a Yankee doodle boy Halle Berry is having a boy, and she’s having him in the States. At least that’s what her fiancé, Olivier Martinez, let slip to People magazine. “My son will be an American, but I remain French,”

Martinez said during the Champs-Elysées Film Festival in Paris this week. “I remain a Frenchman in America, but I adapt to American culture. I feel good there — but I’m still a foreigner.”

She then said “I name this ship Royal Princess. May God bless her and all who sail in her.” David Cameron must have been off on some sort of other really important business, because we find it hard to believe he would shirk a crucial political event like this of his own volition.

Pet Life

Manage your dog’s shedding

metro custom publishing

In summer, shedding is nature’s way of ridding a dog’s body of the old, excess hair they grew during winter to insulate their bodies. Shedding also eliminates hair that might be damaged. Pet owners know that cleaning up a dog’s shedding hair comes with the territory. Even hypoallergenic dogs like poodles shed a little. But there are ways to reduce shedding and remove hair effectively.

give your Pet a brush

cynoclub/veer

PoLished and Pretty Brushing your pooch makes it look polished and pretty. But it has many more benefits. It keeps your dog’s coat free of tangles,

matts and debris and removes old and shedding hair. It also gives you the opportunity to do a little doggie bonding and helps you learn about your dog’s body —

stocklite/veer

the right tooLs for a heaLthy coat • For double-coated breeds with thick undercoats like collies or collies or chow chows, choose a deshedding tool like a Furminator. • For long-coated dogs without undercoats, such as poodles, use a slicker brush with short, pin-like bristles and a

comb to check for knots and tangles. • Short-haired dogs like boxers or bulldogs can be brushed with a rubber brush, or use a Furminator if you are trying to help reduce shedding.” • Also have some detangling spray on hand to help with tangles.

you can look and feel for lumps, cuts or scabs, as well as fleas and ticks. Note that this summer, the word is that ticks are out in full force, so be on the lookout. Make brushing a positive experience for you and your dog by doing it regularly. The dog will get used to it, you will get good at it and there won’t be an opportunity for tangles and matts to get out of control and make the process uncomfortable and lengthy. “Start with a part down the backbone, so you know you’re getting all the layers of hair,” says Amy Graham, a PetSmart groomer and salon manager in Stoney Creek, Ont. Systematically, move from section to section to ensure you are getting all areas. “Keep an eye on the dog’s skin — if it appears red, he may be getting a brush burn.” Remember to brush gently, confining your brushing to the hair and not the skin as much as possible, especially in sensitive areas. If you are using a deshedding tool on a shedding breed, “simply run the tool over the dog’s coat to remove excess hair.” If the job gets too difficult for you to handle easily it may be time to take your dog for professional grooming.

Brushing your dog on a regular basis is one of the best ways to reduce hair in your home. “While all breeds need to be brushed, it’s especially important in summer for long-haired breeds with undercoats like golden retrievers, malamutes and huskies to help reduce shedding and cool the dog in summer,” says Amy Graham, a groomer and salon manager with PetSmart in Stoney Creek, Ont. Depending on the breed of your dog, brush at least three times a week — dogs with lots of excess hair will benefit from daily brushing.

bathe your dog

This is easier for short-haired breeds without thick undercoats like pugs or labs. “If your dog is matted or has a thick undercoat, bathing may only make the matting worse or make it difficult to rinse out the shampoo, which is bad for the skin,” Graham says. “Leave the tough jobs like these to a groomer.”

get your dog grooMed

“Groomers have professional-strength blow dryers and tools to make the job more efficient,” Graham says. “A groomer’s blow dryer is so strong that it loosens the undercoat, and the groomer can brush during the drying process, something that can’t be done easily at home.” Long-coated dogs should go to the groomer every four to six weeks; short-coated dogs every six to eight weeks.

feed your dog the right diet

What a dog eats will be reflected in the condition of the animal’s coat, so good-quality food aligned to the dog’s health needs is essential.

The steak house comes to dad this Father’s Day Dinner. Cook this twist on the Batman and Robin of manly fare — steak and potatoes 1. Heat the oven to 350 F. 2. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil. Add the grated potatoes, pressing them down with a spatula, then reduce the heat to medium and cook until golden brown on the bottom, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat. Set a large dinner plate over the skillet, then invert to transfer the potatoes, browned side up, onto the plate. 3. Return the skillet to the heat and add another 1/2 tablespoon of oil. Slide the potatoes back into the skillet, browned side up. Cook Ingredients • 4 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil • 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and coarsely grated, preferably using the grating disk of a food processor • Kosher salt and black pepper • 1 medium shallot, minced • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar • 2 tbsp dry white wine • 2 tsp dried tarragon • 6 oz 1/3-less fat cream cheese (Neufchatel) • 1 1/2 lbs flank steak, trimmed of any visible fat • 1 1/2 lbs baby spinach leaves • 2 cloves garlic, minced • 2 tsp chopped fresh tarragon

oil and heat it over mediumhigh. Pat the steak dry, sprinkle it on both sides with salt and pepper, then add it to the skillet. Cook the steak to desired doneness, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare, then transfer it to a platter, cover it loosely with foil and let it rest for 5 minutes.

6. While the steak is resting, add a tablespoon of the oil to the skillet and reduce the heat to medium. Add the spinach in 4 batches, adding more as each batch cooks down slightly. Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil after the first 2 batches of spinach. Cook until the spinach is just wilted, then add the garlic and salt and pepper to taste. Cook for another minute,

then keep warm on low heat.

7. Remove the potato pancake from the oven and cut it into 6 wedges. Slice the steak thinly at an angle against the grain. Add the juices from the resting steak to the sauce along with the fresh tarragon, and additional water, if necessary, to reach the desired consistency. Warm the sauce over medium heat just until hot. 8. Transfer a potato wedge, a mound of spinach and some of the steak to each of 6 serving plates. Drizzle the sauce over each portion of steak and serve immediately. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS/ SARA MOULTON, AUTHOR OF THREE COOKBOOKS, INCLUDING SARA MOULTON’S EVERYDAY FAMILY DINNERS.

A glass of inspiration LIQUID ASSETS

Peter Rockwell @therealwineguy liquidassets@eastlink.ca

One of my resolutions for 2013 was to barbecue better. I’ve spent too many years tossing burgers on the grill and turning back to my glass while they slowly turn into charcoal. For inspiration, I’ve looked to Argentina. It’s a country where grilling is more than a cooking philosophy, it’s a way of life. While beef is king at an asado, the Argentinean term for barbecue, a typical grilled menu can cover a number of courses featuring a variety of meat cuts including organs that Canadians find an acquired taste. Chitlins anyone? Nothing washes down all that protein better than a glass of red wine, which is one of the reasons why malbec is the star of Argentina’s wine industry. The grape produces deep, dark wines with varying levels of spiciness that pair perfectly with accretive flavours (like those found in barbecue sauces) and helps massage the meat. Bodegas Catena Zapata is one of the country’s most celebrated vineyards. Its 2011 Alamos Malbec ($13.95 to $14.99) is a balanced red with ripe berry fruit and a flowing black pepper trail. Pass the sweetbreads. PRICES REFLECT THE RANGE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SOME PRODUCTS MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ALL PROVINCES.

Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh were the best they’ve been since the playoffs started. Riding big performances from their Big Three, the Miami Heat tied the NBA Finals with a 109-93 victory over the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night in Game 4. James had 33 points and 11 rebounds after failing to break 20 points in any of the first three games of the series, and Wade scored 32 points, 11 more than his previous high this post-season. Bosh matched his playoff high with 20 points and grabbed 13 rebounds, he and Wade supplying the baskets that finally put the

Rashad Evans says it will be a little crazy looking across the cage Saturday in Winnipeg at Dan Henderson, a veteran fighter he has followed for years. “I have a tremendous amount of respect for Dan and it’s going to be fun because I’ve watched his style for a long time,” Evans said Thursday. “I kind of modelled my style after his a little bit.”

Evans, with an MMA record of 22-3-1 and a UFC record of 12-3-1, is still predicting a win when the light heavyweights meet at UFC 161. He’s coming off losses to Jon Jones and Rogerio Noguiera, who was to be in one of the cancelled fights Saturday that bumped Evans-Henderson into the main-event slot.

Bruins not fazed by 3OT loss in Game 1 Stanley Cup final. Boston and its veterans drawing from experience gained in 2011 playoff run

Boston coach Claude Julien isn’t worried because the Bruins have been here before. Even after a triple-overtime loss to Chicago in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup final that would demoralize the most veteran of groups, the Bruins are calm and confident. “We’ve been through a lot,” Julien said. “You can chalk that down to experience of having been through a lot, the ups and downs. So we don’t get rattled

anymore. We know what we can do.” Julien recalled trailing the Vancouver Canucks 2-1 in the 2011 final before coming back to win in seven. He also pointed out that the Bruins lost the first two games to the Montreal Canadiens at home in the first round two years ago. “I think you’ve had experience in the past when we’ve been down two games and bounced back,” centre Chris Kelly said. “Being here before and knowing what to expect is definitely beneficial.” So climbing out of a hole is nothing new for Boston, which still has most of its team in-

Long night at the office

“You’re creeping up on almost playing two full games there. No question that physically and mentally it was draining.” Bruins defenceman Adam McQuaid tact, but might have to play Game 2 on Saturday without right-winger Nathan Horton, who left Wednesday night with an apparent upper-body injury. With or without Horton, the Bruins have plenty of leaders who know the drill. “Vancouver it was everybody’s kind (of) first time around, right?” defenceman Andrew Ference said. “So you lose those couple games (it’s) maybe a heavier feeling than it

is this morning amongst the group because guys are probably a little bit better at turning the page.” The challenge in turning the page this time comes from the way the Bruins lost Game 1 — in triple overtime on a double deflection that goaltender Tuukka Rask could do little to stop. Julien brushed that off along with several bounces that could have won the game, calling them “hockey breaks.” The Blackhawks

Pens tack on 8 years to Malkin’s contract

Kidd in play as Nets’ new coach

The Pittsburgh Penguins could have blown it all up. Swept out of the Stanley Cup playoffs in the Eastern Conference final by the Boston Bruins, speculation swirled about the futures of coach Dan Bylsma, superstar Evgeni Malkin and goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury. Amid calls for action, general manager Ray Shero got busy after the Penguins were ousted. But his moves have been the opposite of a complete overhaul. “It’s easy to change,” Shero said Wednesday in Pittsburgh. Shero extended Bylsma and his assistants’ contracts two years through the 2015-16 season, gave Fleury a vote of confidence as the team’s franchise goaltender and then Thursday agreed to terms with Malkin on an eight-year, $76-million contract extension that could keep him with the Penguins for the balance of his NHL career.

Meet the new guy, Jason Kidd. Less than two weeks after ending his long, All-Star career, Jason Kidd acknowledged he has “a lot to learn about coaching” Thursday as he took the Brooklyn Nets job despite having no experience leading a team from the bench. Now a point guard who was all about assists in his 19 years on the court will be looking for a little help. “Nervous,” the 40-yearold Kidd said when asked how he felt. “I’m a rookie. I go from being one of the oldest players in the league to now a rookie coach. I’m very excited about this challenge. We have a special opportunity to achieve a championship-calibre team.” Kidd retired earlier this month after one season with the New York Knicks, and the Nets decided to hire him to replace P.J. Carlesimo — a move that comes with some obvious risks since Kidd has never been a head coach.

MLS. Depth at midfield costs Dunfield his job Toronto FC striker Danny Koevermans has endured everything from defenders hacking at his legs to knee reconstruction surgery. Not much gets to the big Dutchman. But the 34-year-old Koevermans had a hard time keeping it together Thursday when asked about the departure of friend and teammate Terry Dunfield. The MLS team waived the hard-tackling Canadian international, whose $120,000 US

salary and place in the midfield pecking order had rendered him surplus to requirements. “He’s just a great guy, a funny guy. And he was important to the team,” said Koevermans, struggling to keep his emotions in check. “What can I say? I’m going to miss him.” Koevermans’ tradition of a pre-game coffee with Dunfield has fallen victim to the business of MLS soccer. Dunfield started the season in central midfield along with

Jeremy Hall but sprained his knee April 2 in practice. He returned to find himself deep down the depth chart. Argentine Matias Laba, a young designated player acquired in late April, has since been installed alongside Hall. Toronto can redeploy Luis Silva and Jonathan Osorio in central midfield if needed. Silva has been playing behind the striker while Osorio has been shifted to the right flank. The Canadian Press

Horoscopes

Aries

March 21 - April 20 Good things are sure to come your way today but exactly what kind of good things remains to be seen. You may well benefit from something you hear, maybe when you should not have been listening.

Taurus

Sagittarius

Gemini

Capricorn

Dec. 22 - Jan. 20 People you work with may do things you don’t approve of today but in the greater scheme of things it’s no big deal. By all means laugh when they discover they’ve made fools of themselves.

Cancer

June 22 - July 23 You have much to think about today and you need to make sure you are not interrupted by people whose problems are, to your mind at least, rather trivial. Find a quiet corner where you can think in peace.

Aquarius

July 24 - Aug. 23 What appeared so difficult yesterday will suddenly be the easiest thing. Chances are it wasn’t actually that difficult at all. You were just in an unnecessarily negative frame of mind.

Virgo

Aug. 24 - Sept. 23 Stop worrying what others might think and do what you feel is right. Sometimes you can be a bit too analytical for your own good, so switch and let your heart guide you.

Scorpio

Nov. 23 - Dec. 21 Stop panicking and trust your instincts. If you listen to the small voice inside your head you will find a way out of your dilemma. It’s amazing what a bit of perspective can do.

May 22 - June 21 You will sail through what has to be done today. You will find ways to overcome obstacles placed in your path. Gemini is one of the more adaptable signs of the zodiac, and that works in your favour.

Leo

Sept. 24 - Oct. 23 You may have to tell someone that you cannot deliver on what you promised. Chances are they won’t mind in the slightest. It seems like they didn’t want you to do it.

Oct. 24 - Nov. 22 The solution to a problem is simplicity but you are unlikely to see it if you are so convinced there has been an injustice. Calm down, it’s really not that important.

April 21 - May 21 Anyone who tries to make you feel you have done something wrong is not a friend and best avoided. Your mood is positive, so it’s unlikely you will be too fazed.
