Standing up: After a fight with a friend carried over onto the social media site Twitter, Larissa Logue was bombarded with hurtful comments.

Bullied student shares her story

BY MEGAN BOBETSIS REPORTER NWSS correspondent

As the effort to tackle bullying continues to grow in B.C., a Grade 12 student in New Westminster says she knows all too well what it’s like to be bullied and harassed online.

The situation arose when Larissa Logue and her friend had a fight. During the argument, the friend made a condescending comment about Larissa on Twitter.

The tweet was then seen by many of their mutual friends, who then got involved in the fight.

Suddenly Larissa was bombarded with hurtful comments, which were spread on Twitter for all her peers to see. She became distracted at school and worried about

They bickered back and forth but eventually talked and straightended out the situation. Apologies were made on both sides and accepted.

Shortly after the hallway encounter, emotions simmered down, and the initial conflict between Larissa and her friend was sorted out.

“I’m glad everything has been resolved, and there’s no more tension now,” Larissa said. “I’m thankful we all realized it’s our senior year and this needs to be put behind us.”

Royal City residents will be able to attend conferences, visit museums and enjoy theatre productions when the new Anvil Centre opens in 2014.

On Monday, New Westminster city council announced that the new civic centre that’s under construction on Columbia Street would be named Anvil Centre.

“The anvil is a symbol of craftsmanship and strength and recalls New Westminster’s proud roots as one of British Columbia’s original industrial centres,” said acting mayor Bill Harper.

“Naming our new civic facility Anvil Centre is a great way to celebrate our more than 150-year history and pay tribute to the people who built the Royal City, literally from the ground up.”

Greg Magirescu, the city’s manager of arts and cultural development, said the announcement was an “historic” evening for the city, which has been working on the civic centre for several years. He noted the naming process included input from community stakeholders including Tourism New Westminster, the Arts Council of New Westminster and Massey Theatre Society, who worked with consultants, architects and a number of city departments.

“The result – Anvil Centre – is something uniquely ‘New Westminster’ that truly captures the essence of this place,” he said.

A city press release stated the name was directly inspired by the anvil’s unique place in New Westminster history.

David Martin of Hyphen Communications facilitated the naming and logo design process, which also included development of a brand platform, brand narrative, naming option

Fraser Health offers advice to rat proof NWSS

BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

The Fraser Health Authority has laid out several recommendations to help rat proof New Westminster Secondary School, after a dead rat was found in the ceiling of a classroom last week.

Alex Kwan, an environmental health officer with Fraser Health, toured the school along with a representative from WorkSafe B.C. and school district staff last Friday. Fraser Health visited the school after recieiving a com-

plaint from the public, spokesperson Tasleem Juma told The Record.

“We were made aware of a complaint and our program contacted the school and requested the meeting,” Juma said.

Paul Johansen, a New Westminster parent who has been critical of the school district, forwarded an email from Kwan.

Johansen has a daughter who plans to attend the high school next year, and he is concerned about the rat issue at the high

school.

Kwan’s email lays out the recommendations he made to the district after his visit.

“Following my inspection of NWSS last Friday, I had discussions with SD40 administrative staff on this matter. I was informed that SD40’s rodent control program (RCP) has been in use since March 2011. Their RCP includes the use of rodenticide as a last resort when necessary and only on the exterior of the school,” Kwan wrote. “At the time of my inspection, there

were no signs of rodents, and it appeared that sanitation was well-maintained.”

Rodent control measures are implemented by “knowledgeable maintenance staff, however at this time they do not have upto-date certificates in pesticide application,” his email said.

Kwan wrote that he was told the school district will use the services of a professional pest control company to assist staff in handling situations they are having difficulty addressing.

He suggested the district

retain the services of a pest control company to assess the district’s rodent control program for adequacy; provide training for one or more district maintenance staff in pesticide application and maintain the certification on a yearly basis.

Kwan recommended the district maintain a log/record of all rodent incidents; install door sweeps and wire mesh in certain areas and seal the gap around the large pipe that passes ◗Rats Page 8

Strike forces DC to close

Douglas College support staff hit the bricks on Wednesday, forcing the school to shut down for the day.

British Columbia Government and Service Employees’ Union had picket lines on the Royal Avenue and the Eighth Street corner of the New Westminster campus.

On Nov. 2, support staff voted 77 per cent in favour of strike action to back their bargaining demands.

“Douglas College support staff deserve a fair and reasonable deal,” union president Darryl Walker said in a press release.

“The monetary offer on the table at Douglas College is half what support staff at other post secondary institutions such as UBC and SFU have settled for. That’s unfair, and it’s not right.”

Douglas College is the seventh largest post-secondary institution in the province, with 4,700 full-time and 10,000 part-time students for the 2011/12 school year.

put up picket lines on Wednesday. The school was closed but reopened Thursday.

Where should French immersion program go?

BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

Should the early French immersion program stay at John Robson Elementary or be moved to Lord Kelvin Elementary when the new school is built?

That’s the question the board of education will ask parents and school staff after trustees voted unanimously in favour this fall of a staff recommendation to consult with stakeholders on which school should house the popular program.

Sandra Pace, the district’s director of instruction, told the board at a meeting in September that the French immersion program is well integrated into Robsonl, though Kelvin families were excited to get the new program.

“Kelvin probably won’t be happy to lose French. They were quite happy to get it,” Pace said.

Currently, French immersion is at Robson, but the plan was to transfer the program when Robson students move to the new school, which is being built

on the former St. Mary’s Hospital site.

Kelvin does not have French immersion at this time.

The plan was to house early French immersion at Kelvin to manage enrolment, but Robson is now being built at a higher capacity.

Pace said the district would consult with stakeholders and return to the board with a recommendation.

“Both schools have good arguments (for having French immersion),” Robson currently has 471 students and

is projected to increase to 519 by June 2015, according to a staff report. The early French immersion program at the school is expected to increase from 110 students to 136.

The new elementary school at St. Mary’s could accommodate the French program, but the district would have to move a small number of Grade 6 students to Glenbrook Middle school until the city’s new middle school is built on the former Robson site, Pace told the board. nhope@royalcityrecord.com

appearance, given the recent suicide of her daughter, may upset some younger people at the event. It’s a debatable rationale – but even if it was a solid rationale, the way it was handled was clumsy and insensitive.

And then, to top it off, more leaked correspondence from the Burnaby Hospital’s citizen consultation committee paints a picture of calculating and out-of-touch Liberal insiders more intent on spinning than fixing health care in the city.

Meanwhile, over in the NDP camp, Adrian Dix watches as Mike Farnworth shares more damning correspondence from the committee. Dix doesn’t even comment on the brouhaha seemingly too busy making friends with the business community and allaying their fears to be bothered to either get, or appear, negative.

IN MY OPINION

Mayor should resign his seat Dear Editor:

The current mayor of New Westminster is quoted as saying “You’ve got losers all the time in life who keep looking for things to throw stones at … their information is too wrong for me to let it go too much longer.” (Re: BCBusiness, Oct. 5.)

We are not losers, as you declare all the opposition to the office building and other matters of concern to citizens to be.

We, the citizens of New Westminster, are your victims. You disparage the supporters for a proper referendum to borrow $59 million for your officebuilding folly and other purposes. Our information is not wrong, it is miniscule and far from being complete or useful. We hope that you don’t withhold it much longer.

It is apparent your Napoleonic complex is grow-

ing out of control.

The legal information supplied to the voters listed several items to be funded by the proposed borrowing. It did not include the $40 million for an office building which was openly confirmed by staff and councillors.

That is all the information we were given. The lack of a formal referendum has enabled you to deny us the truth behind the withdrawal of the original partner. You have failed to respond to requests for the financial analysis of the office project, which is clearly far beyond your mandate.

It is you, Mr. Mayor, with the record of over spending on capital projects and lack of proper planning in so many of them. It is you who has created a burden of debt which will continue to cause higher taxes in a time of recession. It is you who has annually raised taxes. ◗Show Page 7

Transit should operate on a for profit basis and its prices should closely reflect market forces — even if it means that transit fares increase.

Mass transit has one major advantage: where there is sufficient demand, transit is inherently cheaper than private automobile usage because the costs are spread over many people, making the per person cost lower. That’s why most people fly with commercial airlines instead of chartering private jets, for example. But keeping the price too low reduces the ability of transit service to provide more routes, and to expand into sustainability.

This may seem like a radical departure, but consider that London, England, contracts out its bus service. If one of the world’s busiest cities can co-ordinate a public-private partnership of this magnitude, there is no reason smaller cities couldn’t do the same. The key is to create the right incentives and institutions. The current model of treating transit as a welfare service has failed. It is time to make transit the first choice for commuters, not the last. “

As always, Nov. 11 is a special day in the lives of so many of us who pause to reflect, remember and thank the courageous women and men who sacrificed for us and gave us this safe country in which we can be free. How noble! How wonderful!

Thank you.

And yet, I have also learned recently that 90 unionized health-care workers who are employed at the George Derby Centre, a nursing home for veterans in Burnaby. have been given their notice and will no longer be employed as of April 2013. This is a group of residents that have given everything for this country and management believes that it is in their best interests to take away special and professional relationships with their caregivers, many of whom have been employed with the centre for 20 years.

While I understand in times of worrisome economics that Fraser Health would like to save money by abandoning their caring staff in order to hire contract staff, who will have no loyalty or allegiance to the centre, let alone benefits, it is abhorrent to not consult with staff, residents and their families.

It has become easy practice in budget uncertainty to lay off trusted staff but it does not account for the reliability and dependability of long-term staff and the comfort and reassurance that it brings to family and friends. It is time to take a stand and do the right thing – not to disrupt seamlessness and excellence in care; our continuous thanks to our veterans by allowing them to continue to work with those that they are well-acquainted with and trust; and to lobby our governments in obtaining the money necessary to provide the kind of care that we can be proud of.

Deal: Be wary of trade intentions ◗ continued from page 6

‘60s and ’70s was just so much anti-Americanism – after all, back then only the Americans had any real money – and nothing more.

If that was the case, then maybe those heady nationalistic principles were not very deep to begin with, and that would be a shame.

Personally, I think it is appalling that we should consider selling any resource to the Communist Chinese, be it to their government agencies directly or to any citizen of that regime.

And if we do, are we then in effect saying that the Americans presented a bigger threat to Canada’s sovereignty in the 1970s than the Red Chinese do in 2012? If that’s the case, then it’s become a world turned upside-down.

China’s agenda is no big secret. It wants to displace the United States as the global superpower, simple as that. And while I am dismissive of conspiracy theories of any kind, I truly believe that the essential element of this pact is pure Robert Ludlum/Tom

Clancy come-to-life, part of an agenda that calls for nothing less than incorporating Canada into a dependency of and a source of resource extraction for China.

This trade deal that Ms. Sterk comments on may be just what we need to appreciate that there are others – both people and regimes – in this good old world of ours with agendas very much their own and not at all compatible with our best interests.

Author to talk on ‘boy smarts’ for parents

Well-known educator takes the stage for parenting seminar

BY NIKI HOPE REPORTER

nhope@royalcityrecord.com

Author and educator Barry MacDonald will be offering his tips on parenting boys at a seminar in New Westminster this

month.

Boys and girls approach life with differing needs, differing abilities and differing goals and gender is one of the great organizing principles in child’s development, according to a media release on the event.

The release outlined some of the challenges that boys face: they account for 90 per cent of juvenile alcohol and drug viola-

tions, they make up about 80 per cent of school suspensions and expulsions, and they make up two thirds of students in special education.

Drawing on studies from cultural and biological-based understandings of how children grow and develop, the author of the best-selling books Boy Smarts and Boys on Target: Raising Boys into Men of Courage

Catch ‘red nose’ ride A safe, affordable way to get home safely this season Burnaby and New Westminster are now part of Operation Red Nose.

At a media event in Burnaby earlier this month, the two cities announced they are now part of the program where volunteers pick you up and drive you and your vehicle home.

Operation Red Nose began in Quebec in 1984 and has since spread across the country.

With the introduction of this program,

Burnaby and New Westminster partygoers will have an additional option for getting home safely.

The cost for this service is reasonable too: It’s free.

Donations are encouraged and certainly appreciated, say organizers.

For further information, or to volunteer, see the program’s website at www. operationnezrouge.com. The service will be available on Nov. 30, Dec. 1, 7, 8, 14, 15, 21, 22 and 31. To request a ride on these dates please call 1-877-604-NOSE (6637). www.twitter.com/ AlfieLau

through the wall in Room 138 – where the dead rat was found.

Fraser Health also recommended the district ensure the dumpster lids by the bubble gym are kept closed to avoid attracting rodents and that it change the type of “rodenticide.”

“Aside from my recommendations, I also advocated for all NWSS staff to continue their assistance in implementing the RCP (i.e. reporting of rodent activity and concerns),” Kwan wrote.

This isn’t the first time Fraser Health has visited

the high school about rodent concerns.

In 2007, after being contacted by the public, the agency inspected and found evidence of rodents.

Evidence of rodents were found “throughout the school,” said the 2007 report by Kwan.

The issue of the dead rat surfaced on Nov. 6, when the decomposing rodent was discovered.

Students were moved to another room while the situation was dealt with.

A number of people have noted that they have either seen rats or evi-

dence of rats at the high school, including the New Westminster Teachers’ Union president Grant Osborne, who said recently that teachers told him about rat concerns earlier this fall.

The president of CUPE Local 409 Marcel Marsolais told The Record last week that the age of the building – it’s more than 50 years old – is a significant part of the problem. Parents in new Westminster have been waiting for more than a decade to have a new school built. www.twitter.com/ nikimhope

‘Long game’ documentary premieres Saturday Last year’s fundraiser now focus of film

BY ALFIE LAU REPORTER alau@royalcityrecord.com

It was a little more than a year ago when a group of 40 women played hockey for 10 days at Burnaby 8Rinks to raise awareness about cystic fibrosis and set a Guinness world record.

Well, the group, named the VancouverchapteroftheCanadian Cystic Fibrosis Foundation and Partners, succeeded in every way possible, raising more than $165,000, breaking the longest continuous hockey game record by 65 minutes and raising awareness of the disease to levels they didn’t even think possible.

And come Nov. 17, participants and supporters will get to relive that magical time between Aug. 26 and Sept. 5, 2011 with the Vancouver screening party for Lace Bite, the documentary about the world’s longest hockey game.

The documentary, presented

by Beyond Your Eye Productions and Cystic Fibrosis Canada, and produced and directed by Sharron Bates and Carmen Klotz, will have two screenings, at 12:30 and 2:30 p.m. at the Vancouver International Film Festival Vancity Theatre at 1185 Seymour St. Doors open at noon, with tickets $15 for adults and $13 for people under 18. Tickets are available at the door, cash only, and include the

reception afterwards.

The celebratory get-together after the screenings will allow people to eat, talk and meet some of the players who took part in the game.

Food is being provided by Whole Foods and Bella Cakes of New Westminster, while the cash bar will feature beverages from Parallel 49 Brewery, Gray Monk Winery and Quail’s Gate Winery.

Francesca Sawyer is a Burnaby resident who played in the game, which participants still look back at as a rousing, heart-warming story of community, love of hockey and desire to help others Sawyer has been involved in ice sports for many years and got involved because of her friendship with Annie Markvoort, the sister of Eva Markvoort, the New Westminster woman who valiantly fought her battle with cystic fibrosis before succumbing.

Sawyer said she played ringette for 18 years, coached for seven years and was a referee for three years. She’s also played coed, women’s and summer hockey for the past six years.

“The Longest Game 4 CF combined everyone’s love of hockey with their love of helping others in need,” said Sawyer. “It was through Annie I found out about cystic fibrosis, and she asked me if I wanted to help in the Longest Game 4 CF. Eva’s story motivated me to get involved with cystic fibrosis, getting the word out and helping to raise money to find a

As the documentary’s Vancouver showing nears, Sawyer can barely contain her joy.

“It is going to be so exciting,” she said. “It’s going to be interesting going back and seeing all the trials and tribulations we went

through and how tough it was for all of us. … So many of us are really proud of the work we did to raise money and awareness for CF, and we are lucky enough to have a documentary made about this game.”

The documentary had its inter-

national premiere at DocuFest Atlanta on Sept. 23, while its Canadian premiere was at the St. John’s International Women’s Film Festival on Oct. 19.

MICHAEL ISMAN CONTINUES A 16-YEAR FAMILY TRADITION

‘Tie’ing one on for charity – again

BY ALFIE LAU REPORTER alau@royalcityrecord.com

It’s not often you can mention KISS, Jay Leno, Donald Trump and the Toronto Maple Leafs in the same sentence, but it’s all part of the fun and festivities surrounding the 16th annual Royal City Jewellers Tie Day silent auction.

First started in 1996 by Howie Isman and loans manager Ken Basso, the auction has raised thousands of dollars for the Greater Vancouver Food Bank.

Last year, more than $7,500 was raised, and as Basso notes, that actually means more than $22,000 of food can be bought, as the organization’s buying power allows it to buy $3 worth of food for every dollar donated.

Howie Isman passed away in 2010 and Basso has continued the tie day tradition, working with Howie’s son Michael in procuring innovative and unique ties for each year’s auction.

This year’s offerings run the gamut from a boatload of B.C. Lions past and present, including Shawn Gore, Geroy Simon, Jamie Taras, Keron Williams, Paul McCallum, Wally Buono, Andrew Harris, Mike Benevides, Korey Banks, Cameron Wake, Angus Reid and Travis Lulay, to world famous stars such as Donald Trump, Jay Leno and chef Gordon Ramsay.

“I’m pretty happy to get Gordon Ramsay to sign a tie for us this year,” said Basso. “And Michael did a great job in Las Vegas getting the guys from Pawn Stars to sign a tie for us. … Jay Leno has always been good, as has Donald Trump. We’re pretty lucky to have as many different people sign ties for us.”

Basso and Michael Isman make it easy for celebrities to sign ties. Basso mails the tie to the celebrity or his representative and once signed, the tie comes back to New Westminster, where the Royal City Jewellers staff frame it and package it with an accompanying item.

For musical artists, that item might be a CD, or for athletes, it might be a trading card or photograph.

“That’s what we call adding value to the tie,” joked Basso.

The tie auction, which began at the beginning of November, runs until 3 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 24 and includes a party at the Royal City Jewellers location at 515 Columbia St. Not only will Global meteorologist Mark Madryga be hosting, Vancouver Whitecaps legend Carl Valentine is also scheduled to be there and there’s also a bonus: a silent auction for four exclusive items that will only be on offer during the Nov. 24 party.

The items include three hand-painted Gary Weston ties, including a Trevor

Up for bid: Michael Isman stands with ties signed by Trevor Linden and Michael J. Fox at Royal City Jewellers. The ties are up for bid at the jewelry store, which has held the annual food bank fundraiser for 16 years. Isman is carrying on a tradition of helping, which his now-deceased father, Howie Isman, who owned the store, and loans manager Ken Basso started in 1996.

Linden/Vancouver Canucks creation, and an oldtimers’ hockey jersey signed by Cliff Ronning, Theoren Fleury and Bryan Trottier.

But back to the regular tie auction, which is being conducted at www.rcj. ca/tieday/. The minimum bid is $20 and there’s a little something for everybody.

If you love horse racing, then Kentucky Derby-winning jockey Mario Gutierrez has signed a tie you can bid on.

If you love football or Dancing With The Stars, then Emmitt Smith is your guy.

Or if trashy television is your vice, then a tie signed by the Real Housewives of Vancouver, Season 1, is certainly right up your alley.

Add in hockey players and coaches such as Don Hay, Scotty Bowman, Pat Quinn, Bill Ranford, Trevor Linden, Darryl Sittler, Johnny Bower and Kirk McLean, or baseball slugger Jose Bautista and boxer George Chuvalo and you have an all-star team of athletes who’ve signed ties for the

auction.

Basso said most of the credit for the auction goes to the man who’s no longer there.

“Mr. Howard Isman, he was my friend and my boss and I still miss him big time,” said Basso. “I can still see him coming up with big ideas and throwing out ideas on who else we should be trying to get to sign a tie. Now Michael has really stepped up, as has the rest of the staff here and it’s all one big team working on this.”

Basso said the original idea behind Tie Day had nothing to do with celebrities and everything to do with a friendly bet between himself and Howie Isman.

“We agreed to each donate $5 dollars to the food bank for every staff member who wore a tie,” said Basso. “And while we raised some money, we wanted to raise more and that’s when we came up with the idea of celebrities signing ties.”

Basso called in some favours and had Wayne Gretzky sign a tie and Isman

worked his celebrity connections and so began the tradition that has endured for 16 years.

“I remember that first year, we were so happy to have Lui Passaglia and Bro Jake sign,” said Basso. “And then we got artists like Robert Bateman and Ross Penhall contributing original art work. ... We’ve raised more than $180,000 since 1996.”

As for the two ties he remembers most during the past 16 years, Basso said actor Kirk Douglas and Canadian Space Agency president Steve MacLean are his personal favourites.

“I know it’s not easy for Mr. Douglas to autograph stuff, but he took the time and I really appreciate that,” said Basso. “And Mr. MacLean, he’s such a busy guy and for him to write back a letter with his tie, that really makes me feel good.”

ARCHIE & DALE MILLER

D

o you enjoy maps?

Do you pore over a map prior to a trip? Do you love viewing old maps to see where roads or trails used to be and then go looking for what remains of those past features?

There is a difference of opinion on this topic but personally, we would say yes to all these questions.

An early survey map of the Fraser River shows the river from its mouth to the Fort Langley area.

This fascinating chart was prepared in 1859/60 by the officers and crew of HMS Plumper and shows how the river has evolved. This has always been a favourite map to use in the telling of our local story.

Many years ago we acquired a series of maps and surveys of the Fraser Valley and Canyon that were put together by the Royal Engineers while they were active in the

OAKLEY

colony. We spent many delightful days following the old maps, comparing them to present day versions to see what roads remain from the past. We located lots of bits and pieces from Surrey to Rosedale.

On other occasions using the same early maps, we explored the Fraser Canyon noting the “Engineers’ Road” and the places where it used to go.

The area around Alexandria Bridge, not far from Yale, was a wonderful gold mine of historical reminders. Other places we followed in much the same manner were the old pack trails and more “Engineers’ Road” following the Provincial Highway through Manning Park as well as the Skihist campground area overlooking the Thompson River near Lytton.

In the Cariboo, early maps provide eye-opening personal adventures in seeking out the historical landmarks over the mountains south of Barkerville with sites near the Quesnel River.

Places like Quesnelle Forks, Likely, and Antler Creek, and the very early

trails that connected them, are immensely exciting to seek out and explore, again, all possible by reviewing and understanding some old maps.

Early maps of the Royal City, including some fire insurance pages, offer a very wide array of information. The Royal Engineers’ surveying notes point out where the survey points were to be, how the markers were set – a stake, a stump, or a pile of rock. Many people today have visited the Royal Engineers’ survey marker, resurveyed and set a number of years ago near the corner of Columbia Street at Richmond Street.

If you enjoy maps as we do, then you will want to come out to the Historical Society meeting at the New Westminster Public Library auditorium on Wednesday, Nov. 21, starting at 7:30 p.m.

Guest speaker Derek Hayes, one of our finest historians, who is great at using maps to tell a story, will talk about his new book, British Columbia: A New Historical Atlas. Hayes is a master at his craft and has many map books to his name, so this will be a very entertaining talk.

Discovering education

Fraser River Discovery Centre’s (FRDC) education programs received $10,000 from the Telus Vancouver Community Board recently.

The centre’s popular River School connects individuals with the living, working Fraser River by offering interactive and thought–provoking activities to school groups from Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley.

Catherine Ouellet-Martin, executive

director of the centre, commended Telus for its support of initiatives that focus on education.

“Education is a key activity for promoting understanding of the value of a healthy, productive Fraser River. Our River School provides students with an opportunity to develop a respect for the river’s role in shaping British Columbia’s ecological, social and economic diversity,” she said. editorial@royalcityrecord.com

Take care with vine BRANCHING OUT ANNE MARRISON

Question: I have a Concord grape vine eight years old and was wondering if I can move it.

Or can I cut off a foot-long piece and stick it in the ground? I need a little advice on the best choice.

Myra, Chilliwack Answer: Moving a grapevine involves some heavy digging and much pruning of vines and roots. The roots aren’t usually deeper than a foot (30 cm) but they spread four or five feet around.

If you’re a muscular type gardener who is OK with strenuous work – or if you have help from someone who can dig a big hole and drag a wide rootball around, then you could certainly get the whole vine moved.

So the choice really depends how strong you

are or if you have help available.

Grapevines are so vigorous that cuttings or transplanting should result in a live grape vine.

Cuttings are easier, but transplanting the big vine would give you more grapes sooner.

Late fall planting gives the roots more time to settle in, but I’m inclined to prefer early spring for moving grapevines or starting grape cuttings.

That’s because winter sometimes strikes early and hard. Occasionally we have severe cold with outflow winds and no precipitation. This is hard on newly-planted grapes and may kill cuttings.

Starting cuttings is non-strenuous and takes very little time. All you need is a stem with three buds: when you insert it into the ground, two buds should be covered by soil while one remains above it. Rooting hormone is optional.

It is always safer with cuttings to take two or three in case of accidents and leave the mother plant in place until you have at least one cutting producing new growth.

Question: I bought a bunch of trees and shrubs (weeping birch magnolia, lilac, roses, burning bush, forsythia) with plans to plant them right away. But now I’d prefer to wait till spring when we can afford to have someone properly plan a garden for us. I’d love to know if I had better get digging now or if I could take steps to protect them now and plant them later.

Jamie Jeffrey, By email Answer: You can do it all, Jamie.

You can get digging to protect them now, keeping them in the pots so that you have them ready for planting later.

The best way to overwinter them in pots is to dig holes deep enough in the soil so that you can plunge pots and plants into the earth. The level of soil in the pots should be level with the top of the garden soil. Mulching them would give extra security.

An alternative method for people who have a greenhouse, which can be heated to above freezing, is to simply plunk the trees ◗Roots Page 16

Roots: Consider winter needs and shrubs in there. They will be able to survive the winter in the original pots just as you bought them.

They would need occasional watering.

In the days when most shrubs and trees were sold bare-root in fall, gardeners would often “heel” them in – that is, plant them quickly and casually with

no extras.

Their aim was just to get the roots covered till they could relocate them in spring.

Plants in containers in the soil have a better situation because there’s less root disturbance later.

The Queen’s Park Volunteer Society Gift Shop hosted a Christmas Shopping Night on Nov. 15 but there’s still time to check out its selection of jewelry and art local artisans.

The shop is located inside the main lobby of the hospital at 315 McBride Blvd.

Brett said she loves the work of New Westminster resident Marney-Rose Edge and can pick up a beautiful card or coaster by her, or even a numbered print, at the gift shop.

Colleen McDonald, a New Westminster retired teacher, instigated the rebranding effort at the gift shop. The shop cleared out dated merchandise earlier this year to make way for new offerings such as jewelry, silk scarves, home décor items and other items staff and visitors would want to buy for themselves or as gifts.

“The gift shop has real appeal. It’s always buzzing with shoppers,” Brett wrote in an email to The Record. “Colleen McDonald has an amaz-

Royal City Gogos’ efforts to help grandmothers in Africa.

Janine Reid, who founded the Royal City Gogos in 2009 and is a coordinator of the Greater Van Gogos, said the New Westminster group raised about $20,500 at its Artisan Crafts for Africa sale on Nov. 3.

The funds will go through the Stephen Lewis Foundation to community-based projects working with African

grandmothers and the orphaned children in their care.

The foundation, which works with communitybased organizations to turn the tide of HIV/AIDS in Africa, has funded more than 700 initiatives and partnered with more than 300 communitybased organizations in 15 countries since 2003.

Since its formation in April 2009, the Royal City Gogos have sent $175,000 to the Stephen Lewis Foundation in support of

community-based projects that work with African grandmothers and the children in their care.

If you missed the Artisan Crafts for Africa sale but still want to support the Royal City Gogos fundraising efforts, the group is still collecting pennies and making jars available for a penny drive.

The local group’s goal is to collect one million pennies, which is $10,000.

Nancy Saraiva At this time of year, malls are bustling with people on the hunt for the most talked about toy and the television is screaming out ads to buy, buy and buy some more, promising to put a smile on a child’s face.

Though gift giving is an integral part of this time of year, it’s also a great time to focus on the real needs of a child as celebrated on the annual National Day of the Child, November 20th.

The day is designated to pay tribute to Canada’s commitment to children, promote children’s initiatives across the country and encourage child-related organizations to raise awareness of child rights. Based on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, the New Westminster Community Project, Understanding the Early Years (UEY), developed a Children’s Charter to support families in respecting specific rights for a child - the right to healthy development, the right to be safe and the right to participation.

On November 17th, The New Westminster Early and Middle Childhood Development Committees are hosting a family event for children 1-12 years old at Lord Kelvin Elementary School. The event will include storytelling, movement, crafts, face painting and healthy snacks. Local youth trained by Equitas, using the program Play it Fair!, will play games that focus on responsibility, cooperation, inclusion and diversity.

Find inspiration at Century House HEALTHWISE

DR. DAVIDICUS WONG

W

ho inspires you? Of all the great personalities in history and of all the people you have met in your life, who has inspired you the most?

Whose words and actions, style and manner have influenced you in the most positive way?

I have been inspired by teachers who shared knowledge and wisdom, patients who, with courage, have confronted illness and disability, my dad with his honest work ethic, and my children who have made me a better person.

Growing up, I spent many hours reading Superman and Batman comic books.

I imagined having a secret identity and using my powers to overcome adversity, help those in need and make the world a better place.

I also read the World Book encyclopedia – cover to cover – from A to Z. The stories of the great people in history and mythology filled my imagination.

I didn’t realize it then, but the heroes of mythology and comic books represented what mythologist Joseph Campbell called the hero’s journey – the archetypal adventure that represents the life of every human being.

When I reflect upon who has been my greatest inspiration – and who still sets my standards for morality and compassion, my mother comes first.

She was literate, outgoing and kind.

She was the most thoughtful person I have ever known. She not only considered the needs of her family, but she would worry about every other person she knew.

She was the most honest person I have ever met. If given extra change, she would walk a mile

back to the grocery store.

She would always do what she knew to be right.

My mom taught me the importance of family.

When she was nine years old, she and her siblings were orphaned.

With both parents gone, the children decided to work hard to keep the younger ones fed and clothed until they had all finished school.

With better luck, my mom may have gone to university and become a teacher or a nurse.

The courage and love shared by my mom and her siblings remain an inspiration.

Without their shared efforts, the family would have been separated, and I would not know my cousins.

My mom came to the hospital every day when I was 10 years old and hospitalized with rheumatoid arthritis.

She’d bring me books and stay the whole day.

She was the one to take me to all my doctor’s appointments and lab tests.

She would lose sleep watching over me when I was feverish or in pain.

My mother had faith in me when I did not. She believed I could do great things if I worked at it.

She gave me freedom to discover my own talents and supported me in nurturing them.

My mom inspires me still with the selfless, unconditional love she gave me.

It remains her legacy to me, and I aspire to give that same love to my own children and to every other human being I can touch.

Who inspires you, and how can each of us inspire others?

On Saturday, Nov. 17, Century House in New Westminster will be celebrating Inspiration Day. Recharge your life with inspirational words, laughter yoga and live comedy. A $5 ticket covers refreshments and door prizes.

I’ll be presenting the keynote, “Be Inspired … And Inspire Others: Achieving Our Positive

Modern art of books

From ebooks to tablets, there’s more than one way to get your dose of reading

BY DEBRA NELSON CONTRIBUTOR editorial@royalcityrecord.com

How do you read your books? There are a surprising number of ways.

You can read in print and ebook or listen on audiobook. You can read on paper, computer, eReader, tablet, phone and iPod. You can listen on CD, computer, MP3 player, iPod, phone and tablet.

What’s not surprising is that even though the formats for books and magazines are changing you can still borrow them from the New Westminster Public Library. Electronic books (ebooks) can be borrowed from the Library to Go website, which is linked from the library’s website www.nwpl.ca.

It doesn’t matter if you live in New Westminster or Terrace.

Just pre-download the software from the website, login with your home library card, check out a book and you can read it on most devices.

A new addition to electronic reading is emagazines. These can be borrowed from

the library in a partnership with Zinio.

All you need is your New Westminster library card and an email address.

The full colour magazine with links can be read on your computer, phone or tablet and once you’ve subscribed to the magazine you’ll be notified when a new issue is available.

Find out more on our website by clicking on NWPL eLibrary.

A bonus with downloading ebooks, audiobooks and emagazines is that there are no overdue charges.

Find out more about borrowing ebooks and emagazines at an information session on Nov. 22 at 7 p.m.

There will also be some popular eReaders on hand for you to look at and try. As space is limited, pre-register at 604-527-4667.

If you’d like to try out an eReader, the library also lends Kobo eReaders. They come preloaded with popular titles, but you can also try downloading ebooks from the Library to Go website.

And of course, books are still available in print in hardcover, large print, and paperback and in audiobook on compact disc.

Stop by the New Westminster public library at 716 Sixth Ave.

STM’s twin pillars of strength

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

St. Thomas More Collegiate found a perfect set of bookends to showcase the gridiron Knights’ star-laden past.

Senior linemen Dante Vigini and Nico Repole have brought a twin pillar of strength to a stout STM defence that has been known for years around the league for its unwavering conviction to make the tackles.

Both six-foot-plus AAA conference all-stars were among the leaders in that category this season – Vigini had a second-best 76 stops, while Repole was close behind with 68 solo tackles.

The two were also the runaway sack leaders, combining for 28 quarterback muggings between them, including 16 by Vigini, who was named the All-East defensive MVP. Vigini and Repole also made three and two fumble recoveries, respectively, this season.

“In past years, we had the talent aspect, but this season we have the toughness we need to bring us to the championships,” said Vigini. “What we bring every play has a lot to do with what our conditioning coach (Jared Power) has brought us.”

“Stopping the run is our main priority, and with our line right now, we’ve been able to achieve that,” Repole added.

“With our coaching, we’ve been able to become the hardest working line in the league.”

That is good news for STM supporters and bad news for opposition teams, who have had the slow-

Bookends: St. Thomas More Knights’ all-conference all-star linemen Nico Repole, left, and Dante Vigini led the B.C. AAA high school varsity football league in quarterback sacks this season. starting Knights in their cross-hairs on a number of occasions this season, only to fail in key situations to put enough points on the board.

And it’s the physicality and speed of Vigini and Repole that have been leading the assault.

“In my time at STM, they are the best tandem of defensive linemen that I have coached,” said varsity Knights head coach Bernie Kully. “The thing that separates the two of them is that they do both a good job against the run and the pass. … They each bring a different skill set

to our team, but the fact is that they both are aggressive and play with great energy and anticipation on every snap … and get nasty when they need to be.”

Both 200-pounders have sparked interest from collegiate coaches, and why not?

The two senior starters clearly love the game and are the best of friends both on and off the field.

“I’d say we definitely have chemistry. We talk a lot. We’re good friends off the field, and it has made us better communicators on the field,” said Vigini.

“We’re both having fun out there and when we’re having fun, the sacks just come,” Repole added.

“Every down is a battle in front of you. It’s a sense of achievement. It’s a good thing.”

But both young men believe that the best STM has to offer is still yet to be seen. There is something more that motivates them to make this final push into the playoffs a special one – both have yet to taste victory in a provincial final in their high school careers.

“It all comes down to character. … This season,

we’ve been able to play in the second half. We have to stretch it out. This won’t be enough in the playoffs,” Vigini said.

“I believe in all the games we’ve had so far, we haven’t played four quarters,” Repole said. “We’ve only shown glimpses of what we can achieve. …

We’ve got to take advantage of the bye week and play with our heart.”

And that should be easy for the varsity Knights, who graduate 16 seniors this year, including a dozen who have played ◗STM Page 30

Panthers on their way back to provincials

BY TOM BERRIDGE SPORTS EDITOR tberridge@royalcityrecord.com

The Moscrop Panthers are headed back to the B.C. AAA high school boys’ volleyball provincial championships.

The Panthers came from behind to defeat Vancouver No. 2 Magee 15-10 in a third-set tiebreaker to earn a spot back at the B.C. boys’ championships on Tuesday.

On Wednesday, the No. 6ranked Panthers hooked their ticket into the Lower Mainland final, sweeping Richmond High in straight sets.

The win will pit Moscrop

against either Vancouver Technical or Vancouver champion Eric Hamber, the team that upset the Panthers in last year’s Mainland final.

Although Moscrop is assured of a second straight berth into the B.C. AAA high school championship tournament, there is a big incentive to win a first-ever Mainland banner, said Moscrop team captain Zachary Or. “Our school has never won (the Mainlands) before. I’m sure it’s as close as we’ve ever come,” said Or. “We want to do it for Brandon (Chin). We’ve been thinking of Brandon the whole year – doing

it for him.”

Chin, an integral part of last year’s Moscrop senior team, was hurt in a semifinal game at the Mainlands and was lost to the squad for the remainder of the post season.

After a close 25-22 opening set against Richmond, Moscrop looked sharp in Game 2, opening on a 7-1 run off the service, including an ace by Grade 11 power J.J. Cross, and fashioning 10 kills en route to a 25-11 win.

The Panthers closed out the match with a 26-24 victory.

Moscrop played for the Lower Mainland title on Thursday (after

NOW deadlines).

The Panthers topped pool A with straight-set wins over Steveston-London and Tech.

Burnaby North had its moments at the Mainlands, taking Richmond to a tiebreaker in its opening pool match. The Vikings served for four match points against Richmond but were unable to close out the game.

North also fell in straight sets to David Thompson and Hamber and was eliminated.

The AAA provincials will be held in Kelowna at the UBC Okanagan campus from Nov. 28 to Dec. 1.

The Simon Fraser University women’s basketball team finished with a perfect record at the Disney Tip-Off Classic in Anaheim, California last weekend.

The Clan completed its third straight win, knocking off No. 8-ranked California-San Diego 61-58 on Sunday.

Nayo Raincock-Ekunwe led the Clan with 22 points and nine rebounds.

Sophomore Erin Chambers, who was 15-for15 from the free-throw line at the Classic, and MarieLine Petit chipped in with 15 and 10 points, respectively.

A day earlier, SFU defeated West Texas A&M 74-59 on Kristina Collins’ 22-point contribution, including four three-pointers.

Raincock-Ekunwe recorded her second double-double of the tournament, scoring 14 points and grabbing 11 boards.

SFU opened the Disney Tip-Off with a 69-60 win over 13th-ranked Grand Canyon University.

Chambers, who was named the Great Northwest conference player of the week following the tournament, led all players with 22 points, including five treys.

Chambers scored a total of 51 points, while also nabbing 15 rebounds in SFU’s three victories.

Raincock-Ekunwe added 50 points in the three-game set, while adding a cummulative total of 31 rebounds, nine assists and five steals.

Collins was also productive during tournament play, scoring 36 points and dishing out nine assists.

New Westminster junior Clan guard Kia Van Laare chipped with a total of 11 points and one steal off the bench at the Disney TipOff. The Clan was also named conference team of the week.

This weekend, SFU is in St. George, Utah for two non-conference games.

◗ FIELD LACROSSE

Selects help McGill Six Burnaby Mountain Selects field lacrosse grads helped McGill University win its first-ever Canadian university championship title.

Jishan Sharples scored two goals, including the game-winner with just 12 seconds remaining, in the 7-6 come-from-behind win over Western University in the Baggataway Cup on Nov. 4.

Jamie Spagnuolo of Burnaby, New Westminster’s Kyle Robinson and Connor Goodwin and Quinton Bradley and Rhys Burnell also shared in the title.

McGill also defeated Guelph 9-8 in the semifinals, capping an unlikely three-goal rally in the final minutes.

Robinson, Sharples, Bradley and 2009 Select Ryan Zoehner of Queens University were also named East Divisions AllCanadians.

For Robinson, it was his second consecutive All-Canadian honour as a defender.

Bishop’s University goalie David Bigley of New Westminster was also named to the All-Eastern conference team.

STM: Saturday vs. N. Dame ◗ continued from page 29

five full seasons in the STM scarlet.

“We have to play each game like it was our last – every play, every down, every time we touch the ball. We played good in the regular season, now we have to play better,” said Repole.

Playing better as the game goes on is an asset that both Vigini and Repole possess in spades, said Kully.

“They are always playing, competing and doing their jobs to contribute to our success,” Kully said. “(A B.C. title) would definitely mean the world to us,” Vigini said. “It’s something we have worked for from Day 1, and all the two-a-days. It’s a dream of all of ours.”

Trust in each other and amongst the entire team is something real and tangible, Repole said.

“Without any one of those players, we wouldn’t be able to achieve what we can achieve,” Repole added.

“It would definitely be something we would cherish for our whole lives,” Vigini answered. “We just have to show it.”

STM will get that chance against the Notre Dame Jugglers in its quarter-final matchup at the University of B.C.’s Thunderbird Stadium on Saturday. Kickoff is scheduled for 8 p.m.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: You change focus midweek, from curiosity to understanding, from secrets and research to “knowing.” Your philosophical, compassionate, “we are one” side lifts you to new heights of understanding, new gentle regions of insight. A love affair might lie on the near-term horizon. Travel, education, law or media are strongly favoured late week into late December – these pursuits might lead you to a new affair.

Sunday/Monday are hopeful, friendly – you’re happy.

Retreat, rest and contemplate midweek. Your energy and charisma soar Thursday eve onward. Start NOTHING new this week.

Taurus April 20-May 20: Midweek’s the pivot: on Wednesday you slowly turn from surface relationships to deep, committed ones, or to a split. It’s an all-ornothing time. Luck occurs if you view “secondary results,” follow clues, and patch together events/ options. This applies especially in areas of intimacy, sexual desire, finances and partnership money, health diagnoses, research and lifestyle change. E.g., an investment might not be obvious, but if you look at what you already possess, or the industry that signs your paycheque, you find a good investment. Wishes come true midweek. Start NOTHING new.

Gemini May 21-June 20: One last week of delay, potential mistakes and wrong directions or false starts. Start nothing new before Nov. 26. The focus of your days changes midweek, from a past month of work, boredom, and health concerns, to the weeks ahead, which hold new horizons, opportunities, exciting meetings and new faces, relocation potentials, negotiations, contracts, dealings with the public, and “fame.” Sunday/Monday are wise, loving, intellectual. Be ambitious, dutiful Tuesday/Wednesday – you are starting to sense your “new career.” Wish fulfillment, popularity, flirtations late week.

Cancer June 21-July 22: A month of pleasure, beauty, charming children and romance comes to an end midweek (Tuesday to Thursday) – a gentle end, filled with understanding – and a deeper or higher love. Wednesday begins a month of work, duties, dependents’ care, health and nutrition factors. But DO NOT start any new projects/tasks, relationships or ventures before Nov. 26. Mysteries, clues, research – and financial or sexual consequences – arise Sunday/Monday. Be wary of making a commitment.

Thursday night to Saturday piques your ambition and brings situations of status, prestige. Careful Friday.

Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Start no new projects nor relationships before Nov. 26. A month of domestic, realty,security,retirement,foundational and nutritional concerns yields, Wednesday, to a month of romance, pleasure, beauty, expansion, self-expression, speculation and venturesome risk. Take those risks – you’ll be on a four-week winning streak. (But read the first sentence again.) Sunday/Monday brings relationships, co-operation or challenge (luckiest Sunday eve/night). Midweek cracks open the door to mystery – and golden answers. Wisdom, gentle love, far travel and education arrive late week.

Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: A busy month ends Wednesday, and a slow, restorative, relaxing, domestic month begins. However, start nothing new before Nov. 26. This week might disrupt your investments or bank account (Thursday/Friday) – there is both an opportunity (before 7:30 p.m.

Thursday) and a danger here (7:30 p.m. to Friday morning). Tackle chores Sunday/Monday – success and frustrations mingle. Relationships face you Tuesday to Thursday – this interval is almost wholly good, even magical, but deception or miscalculation is possible where home, family or residence enters.

Finances, sex late week.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: A month of money matters and sensual attractions ends Wednesday. The new month will feature paperwork, reports, errands, media and mail projects, travel, casual friends and siblings. There are no huge stakes – so be busy but relaxed. An opportunity can arise to travel afar, be published, teach or attend higher learning, win a lawsuit, or fall in love, even wed. But listen. Libra: start NOTHING before Nov. 26. Until then, till the field of the past. Sunday/Monday are romantic, accent pleasure. Midweek brings chores. Relationships, new horizons intrigue late week – be careful.

Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Your energy remains high, but the accent shifts now from your personal concerns to your money and possessions. In the weeks ahead, chase new clients, seek a pay raise, buy/sell, and pursue, if you dare, a sensual person.

(Daring will be the least requirement early: this is a friendly, polite, easy link. The daring part is being sure enough about your future and your desires to commit to this easy, but perhaps mild, bond.) DON’T start anything new before Nov. 26. Early week is for home. Tuesday-Thursday is romantic, creative.

Work, health late week – caution Friday morn.

Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Start nothing new before Nov. 26. Wednesday ends a month of weariness, health concerns, weighty chores and low charisma. The weeks ahead feature high energy, clout, magnetism and effectiveness. Call in markers, seek favours, start significant projects (NOT before the 26th). Launch yourself toward a person, partnership, faraway place, fame, public dealings, negotiations, contracts and agreements. Your luck and progress will come through another (others generally) so be charming, eager and opportunistic.

If someone gives you an opening, seize it. Love, beauty Friday.

Nov. 18 - 24, 2012 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: A celebratory air fades midweek, as a month of duty, management demands, health concerns and weariness, begins. In the weeks ahead, be charitable, seek a broader spirituality, and co-operate with government, institutions and large corporations. However, don’t start anything, especially in these areas, before Nov. 26. Chase money Sunday/Monday. Details, paperwork, errands, trips, communications and casual meetings fill midweek.

Spiritual, governmental matters worry, but social/love urges inspire you. Domestic concerns need caution Thursday late night, confidence Friday.

Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Pressures ease. A month of ambition and tests yields to a month (starting Wednesday) of friends, popularity, light romance (which can turn deeper) entertainment and optimism.

Don’t start anything new (including relationships) before Nov. 26.Your energy and charisma soar Sunday/ Monday (better after 2 p.m. Sunday) – get things done.

Chase money, protect possessions midweek. You might be confused about a money matter: success lies in rethinking it from a career perspective (or a boss’s, parent’s). Talk, travel, driving fill Thursday eve to Saturday: take care Friday morning.

Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: A thoughtful month passes Wednesday, and a new one, of pressure and deadlines, ambition and career, reputation and authority, will begin. You’ll be tested, and your reactions noted. This week, hold to the status quo – start nothing before Nov. 26. (Your thinking’s too fuzzy – though loving – until then.) Rest, lie low and contemplate Sunday/ Monday. Your energy and charisma soar TuesdayThursday. Chase money Thursday eve and Friday after mid-morn – be careful in-between. From midweek into mid-December, travel, law, higher education and cultural venues favour you, bring joy. timstephens@shaw.ca
