Coquitlam NOW August 3 2012TRANSCRIPT
Popcorn has long been astaple for fans of cinema, butCoquitlam moviegoers couldsoon supplant the kernels fora glass of wine or a cold beer.
The company behind theSilverCity Coquitlam Theatreson Schoolhouse Street isplanning to introduce alcoholsales in a handful of its audi-toriums at the theatre.
Specifically, the plan wouldbe to allow moviegoers inSilverCity’s VIP Lounge andtheatres to order a drink priorto the start of a film.
Patrons would be servedtheir drinks by staff at theirseats, and only one drinkcould be ordered before themovie and none during theshowing.
The theatres at SilverCity,in which a total of five havebeen set aside for what’scalled the “VIP Experience,”would also be off limits topeople under the age of 19.
Cineplex Entertainment,which operates the FamousPlayers Coquitlam theatre, hasapplied for a liquor primarylicence from the province.
If approved, it would be thefirst SilverCity in B.C. to serveliquor in a movie theatre.
“For us it’s about makingsure we stay relevant for ouraudiences,” said Pat Marshall,vice-president of communica-tions and investor relations
Just three years after re-locatingto La La Land, Coquitlam’s DanielaBobadilla is part of cable TV history.
The 19-year-old actress has landeda co-starring role in the new CharlieSheen sitcom, Anger Management,which debuted to a record audience of5.7 million viewers when the premiereaired in the U.S. in late June.
Though it’s already halfway throughits first season on American TV, theshow makes its Canadian debut onCTV on Aug. 12.
“It’s a lot of hard work, but none ofit has felt like work,” Bobadilla saidfrom her home in Los Angeles. “It’s
been amazing.”The show, which premiered south of
the border on June 28, is based aroundthe exploits of lead character Dr.Charlie Goodson — played by CharlieSheen — and is loosely tied to the2003 film of the same name.
Cast as Sam Goodson, Bobadillaplays the part of Sheen’s 13-year-olddaughter. During the 10 episodesfilmed so far, Bobadilla watches on asSheen’s character, who’s cast as ananger management therapist, dealswith both his patients’ temper prob-lems and his own.
“The writing was delicious, it wasso brilliant,” Bobadilla recalled of heraudition in mid-February.
“My scene was so raunchy andunlike everything I’ve done, but in a
really good, funny, human type of way.I was so excited.”
Excitement was the order of the dayduring the auditioning process, but sowas anxiety. Bobadilla heard from heragent one day before her audition thatshe had a chance at landing the part,prompting a scurried evening’s worthof phone calls, visualization and prac-tising her craft.
Her first audition consisted of read-ing lines in front of the show’s creatorand casting director, Bruce Helford.After passing the initial litmus test,Bobadilla was called back two dayslater, only this time, her auditionwas in front of 30 high-ranking FXNetwork executives and Sheen.
The final decision came downto Bobadilla and one other actress.
Rumour has it the executives preferredBobadilla’s counterpart, while Sheen,who ultimately had the final say,wanted to go with the Heritage Woodsgrad.
After playing the waiting gamein an adjacent boardroom, Sheenapproached Bobadilla and asked her toread a scene with him.
“[Sheen] came and got me from thewaiting room and said, ‘Hey I wantto talk to you for a sec,’” Bobadillarecalled. “I thought I had no kneecapsand that I was about to fall over. I hadto pretend that I wasn’t there.”
Later that night Bobadilla got wordof her new gig from one of her manyagents.

Ron Sizer often watchesthe cars whiz byfrom the deck of his
Coquitlam home.Unfortunately, it’s not the
front row to an Indy race.Sizer and his family live
along David Avenue, and moretimes than he’d like to see,cars and trucks are speedingand running stop signs alongthe stretch of residential road.
“It’s an accident waiting tohappen,” Sizer told The NOW,adding it’s not uncommon tosee cars doing 80 km/h in the50 km/h zone.
So he wasn’t surprised tosee emergency crews in hisneighbourhood Tuesday nightdealing with a near-fatal col-lision.
A cyclist was airlifted tohospital with critical injuriesafter being struck by a car in acrosswalk on David Avenue.
The crash happened justbefore 8 p.m. while an olderman was crossing the roadwith a group of cyclistsbetween Lansdowne andNoons Creek drives.
Coquitlam RCMP said theman was hit by a westboundcar and sent flying into theair.
It’s the kind of incidentSizer has been predicting foryears.
“I’ve got an eight-year-olddaughter, and I’m worriedabout her — she has a lot ofenergy and she runs,” he said.
Sizer said he’s phoned thepolice and asked them to dosome traffic enforcement inthe area, but didn’t get muchof a response.
That particular crosswalkwas the scene of a similarincident just two monthsago, according to CoquitlamMounties.
Now Sizer is renewinghis calls for traffic calmingmeasures along both Davidand Panorama Drive, or somekind of enforcement along theroads.
And he predicts the dangerswill increase as David is wid-ened to three lanes.
He wants a message to be
sent to drivers to slow downand obey the rules of the road.
“Someone has to die beforethey do something,” Sizersaid.
“I don’t want people to getkilled.”
City of Coquitlam officialssaid they’re aware of the twocrashes and have plans toupgrade the crosswalk as partof a larger road improvementproject along David.
The city intends to install apedestrian-controlled light atthe crosswalk.
That project is out to ten-der and won’t likely be com-plete until the fall.
In the meantime, the city
also plans to install a signleading to the crosswalk high-lighting the need for extracaution on the part of cyclistsand pedestrians.
The stretch of David willalso be getting a multi-usepath on the south side as partof the overall project.
Dan Mooney, manager ofroads and traffic operationsfor the City of Coquitlam,noted mid-block crossingstend to require more atten-tion from pedestrian anddriver alike.
“We’re concerned about thetwo most recent accidents,”he said, adding the crosswalkwas not known to be a prob-
lem prior to the two incidents.Mooney said the hope is the
new measures will help stopsimilar crashes in the future.
As for the collision, policeare investigating and notealcohol was not a factor, butthe car’s mechanics are beingexamined along with thespeed of the vehicle.
RCMP Cpl. Jamie Chungsaid investigators surmisethe driver might have beenblinded by the setting sun.
“He basically just keptgoing and hit one of the ped-estrians with a bicycle,” hesaid, noting a car heading easthad stopped at the crosswalkat the time.
Chung also noted thedriver, who was described asyoung, remained at the sceneand no charges have been laidat this point.
But the incident has policereminding pedestrians to becareful when using a cross-walk, recommending eyecontact with the driver beforestepping out into the road.
“To know that he or she isslowing down for you beforeyou cross the road — evenwhen you’re in a crosswalk— just for your own safety,”Chung said.
Mounties would also liketo speak to a doctor whoadministered first aid to thevictim, but left the scenebefore investigators could geta name.
This person is asked to callthe local detachment at 604-945-1550 and quote file num-ber 2012-20949.

A man who pleaded guilty for hisrole in a horrific crash that killed twoboys in Coquitlam and left anotherparalyzed will continue to drive.
A B.C. provincial court judge hassentenced Ryan John Stewart Miller topay a $1,500 fine and victim surchargefor driving without due care and atten-tion as part of his sentence.
Miller, 31, did not receive any driv-ing prohibition, which Crown wasasking for.
He entered a guilty plea on Mondayin Port Coquitlam Provincial Court.
In reading her decision, JudgeShehni Dossa noted Miller’s remorse,guilty plea and lack of criminal recordfor forming part of her decision.
“Calling this case tragic is an under-statement,” the judge said, adding nomoney can address the loss of life.
The crash occurred on Nov. 29,
2008, when an eastbound minivandriven by the boys’ mother, MariaMoeller, stopped in the HOV lane ofHighway 1 in Coquitlam because thecab of the vehicle had started to fillwith smoke.
Police said at the time the smokewas visible to other vehicles in thearea.
Around 9 a.m., a BMW SUV drivenby Miller and travelling illegally in theHOV lane plowed into the rear-end ofthe stopped vehicle, which had its haz-
ard lights on, according to police.The BMW spun 90 degrees and was
hit by a third vehicle, also travellingeastbound in the HOV lane, policesaid.
The driver of the third vehicle wasalso seriously injured.
Under the Motor Vehicle Act, adriver found guilty of the offencecould face a maximum fine of $2,000,six months in jail, or both.

“He told me and I basically startedscreaming my head off. I didn’t knowwhat had happened, but it happened sofast,” she said.
Though it’s her highest-profile actingjob yet, Bobadilla has worked extensivelyduring her time in California: in 2012alone she landed a part in the TV seriesAwake, while making a pair of guest spotson Desperate Housewives.
“It was weird,” Bobadilla said. “Iremember sitting there watching one ofmy favourite shows and then all of a sud-den my face pops up.”
But for all that success, there came thespectre of excess. Bobadilla’s parents wereinitially wary about their 19-year-old
daughter co-starring alongside someonewith a reputation like Sheen.
“We were concerned of course at thevery beginning,” her father Carlos toldThe NOW Tuesday.
“We were hesitant, but sometimes youcannot stop a process like this one. Thisis the biggest opportunity in her life. Andif we were to say no, it could be morerisky than if we said yes.”
Despite the stories and tabloid fodder,Bobadilla sees a different type of Sheen.
“He shocked me,” she said. “He’sthe most human person I’ve met inHollywood in a while. If I don’t knowwho he was, I would not pick him out ofa crowd. He took on a fatherly role withinan instant. If anything, he’s just reallyquiet.”
As for the show’s future, that dependson this season’s ratings. Should a certainthreshold be reached, 90 more episodes— spanning roughly seven additionalseasons — will be in the offing.
“You have to keep everything fresh inthis business, while still being a humanwhile you’re doing it — you can’t getjaded,” Bobadilla said of both her success,and survival, in Hollywood.
“You have to love it in order to getthrough all the struggles that you gothrough. The moment that I don’t love it,it’s time to go. But I don’t see that everhappening.”
• The Canadian premiere of AngerManagement is set for 4 p.m. onSunday, Aug. 12 on CTV.

for Cineplex Entertainment.She told The NOW the
company chose the Coquitlamtheatre for a combinationof reasons, including recentrenovations that totalled $2.5million and demographics inthe city that made sense stra-tegically.
Cineplex currently offersits VIP experience in just fivefacilities across the country.
Marshall said the servicehas been very popular amongadults, not just because theywant to have a drink, but theylike the opportunity to comein to an exclusive environ-ment with no children orteens.
“Our guests love thisexperience,” she said, not-ing often the VIP showingssell out in advance of moviesin the traditional theatres.However, she added the com-pany does not plan to offer theservice in all of its locations.
As part of the applicationprocess, the City of Coquitlamhas been asked to weigh in onthe plan.
City council recently voted
in favour of setting up thepublic consultation processregarding the application toget feedback from the neigh-bourhood before providingcomment.
Residents living 400 feetfrom the theatre will be noti-fied of the application.
Mayor Richard Stewartvoted against commenting onthe application.
He noted there were noresidents in the area ofthe theatre, and he wishedcouncil would just opt out ofcommenting and support theapplication.
“This is part of entertain-ment today,” Stewart said.
The final decision is ultim-ately in the hands of theprovince’s Liquor Control andLicensing Branch.

SilverCity Coquitlam is one of five theatres in Canadafeaturing Cineplex’s “VIP” experience. The theatrewants to add alcohol service to the mix.
Impending developmentalong the Evergreen Line cor-ridor has local homelessnessadvocates worried about thefuture of the area’s affordablehousing and rental stock.
Representatives with theTri-Cities Homelessness &Housing Task Group issued apress release earlier this weeksuggesting the arrival of theEvergreen Line could forcelow-income residents out ofBurquitlam and parts of PortMoody. About 55 per cent ofCoquitlam’s rental stock is inBurquitlam.
“There is definitely a highconcentration of lower-income households in thatarea,” task group chair SandyBurpee said in an interviewThursday. “The challenge isbeing able to provide themwith affordable alternatives if,in fact, where they’re living isgoing to be redeveloped. Thatis going to be very, very chal-lenging.”
Close to 2,000 units, or 25per cent, of the city’s existing
purpose-built rental housingstock is located within a 10-minute walk of the proposedBurquitlam station.
The task group’s fear isthat low-cost housing will bereplaced with newer, transit-oriented development — anissue the city is currentlyplanning for — and that exist-ing residents will be left withfew, if any, affordable options.
“The bottom line is that allresidents that are currentlyliving in lower-cost housingin Burquitlam need to haveviable alternatives to them,”Burpee said. “Ideally therewould be even more rentalhousing created.”
Compounding the issue is
the tendency for developers toavoid building rental housing,opting instead for condos andstrata developments.
“There’s different ways thecity can provide incentives[to developers to build rentalhousing], but they all havetheir own issues and are con-troversial,” Burpee said. “It’sreally a question of the citydetermining what approach isgoing to be the most appro-priate to take.”
The city’s transit-orienteddevelopment strategy waspassed earlier this week.However, the issue of housingin Burquitlam has not beenfully explored and was sentback to staff for more analysis.

MLAs address auditor’s report
It’s not often opposing pol-itical parties in B.C. can bothagree and get chastised at thesame time.
But the recent damningauditor general’s report,which found the books of theprovince’s legislature were amess, has done just that.
Both Liberal and NDP MLAsin the Tri-Cities say they sup-port more transparency whenit comes to the legislature’sfinances and the changes pro-posed by a committee taskedwith fixing the problem are agood start.
“I think these aregood steps forward,” saidCoquitlam-Burke MountainLiberal MLA Doug Horne.
His counterpart,Coquitlam-Maillardville NDPMLA Diane Thorne, echoedthat sentiment a day after theMLA management committeeaccepted all of the recom-mendations in the auditorgeneral’s report.
“What they’ve done — Ithink it sounds like they’regoing in the right direction,”she said.
What the all-partyLegislative AssemblyManagement Committee(LAMC) decided was to postdetailed accounts of MLAexpenses every four months,and open up the committee’smeetings to the public.
Prior to the announcement,LAMC met behind closeddoors.
Thorne called the entiresituation a “public spanking”of MLAs, and sees no problemwith posting her expenses ona regular basis, rather thanonce a year.
“It actually gives people achance to make things bet-ter, and that’s always a goodthing,” she said.
Horne agreed, suggesting
his surprise over the auditorgeneral’s report that foundreceipts weren’t being includ-ed with some expenses.
He said he’s always includ-ed receipts with his expenses,adding it seemed the systemwas much stronger than thereport suggested.
“I think that how MLAs arespending the money is some-thing the public should beaware of,” Horne said.
However, he noted the
report didn’t say there wasany wrongdoing on the part ofMLAs, but rather the controlsand transparency in the legis-lature were the issue.
Auditor General John Doylereleased a scathing audit lastweek that pointed to a hostof financial irregularitiesand failures at the legislativeassembly, which has a budgetof almost $70 million for staff,MLA salaries and expenses,security, a library, diningroom and gift shop.
Legislature financial staffhad not reconciled their rec-ords with their bank accountsin years, resulting, in onecase, of records showing thelegislature $133 million inoverdraft while the actualbank account sat at $0.
The audit also found tax-payers have been paying offMLA credit cards, used fortravel expenses, without prop-er documentation — likelytotalling hundreds of thou-sands of dollars a year.
Doyle was cautious whenasked how fairly MLAs havespent public money onexpenses, noting he wasn’tgiven full access to suchthings as the $119,000 annualallowance MLAs spend ontheir constituencies.

It has become clear that the federal government,supported by a number of employer organ-izations, has a plan for transforming Canada’s
labour market in ways that will profoundly hurtCanadians.
It’s a four-pronged strategy which includesthe dramatic expansion of the TemporaryForeign Worker Program (TFWP), the erosion ofEmployment Insurance, raising thecountry’s retirement age, as well as asystematic effort to undermine the abil-ity of unions to stand up for the rightsof working people and improve theirstandard of living. Taken together, thesepolicies will suppress the wages andincomes of Canadians rather than address the realproblems in Canada’s job market.
As provincial and territorial federations of labourleaders, representing over three million workers, weare calling on the premiers to stand with the work-ers of Canada against this cheap labour strategy.
Foreign Workers: The Temporary Foreign WorkerProgram (TFWP) is not immigration. It’s exploita-tion. These workers, most of whom are desperateand seeking a better life, are being used to createan underclass to drive down the wages and workingconditions of Canadians. It’s not fair or just to themor to their Canadian co-workers. The recent decisionby the Harper Conservatives to allow employers topay temporary foreign workers 15-per-cent less is ablatant example of its low-wage strategy.
With 1.3 million unemployed and several hun-dred thousand more discouraged or underemployedCanadians, our focus should be on providing
opportunities for Canada’s unemployed and under-employed.
Employment Insurance: Instead of tacklingunemployment in many regions of our country, theHarper plan has been to attack the unemployed. TheConservative government’s changes to EI are clearlydesigned to force workers to take low-paying jobsor have their unemployment benefits cut off. This is
not about helping the unemployed findjobs — rather it is about serving themup to low-wage employers.
Old Age Security: Increasing thecountry’s retirement age to 67 hasnothing to do with the sustainability ofour social programs. It is rather, about
forcing older workers who have struggled with lowand medium wages throughout their working livesto work two more years. It is about expanding thepool of desperate workers who have no choice but towork for less.
Attacks on Unions: Unions are one of the fewmechanisms to protect the rights of working peopleand improve their standard of living. What unionsachieve at the collective bargaining table lifts thefloor and improves living standards for all work-ers. Unions also fight for and are instrumental inmaking gains for all of society, like the establish-ment of medicare, health and safety laws, and fairminimum wages. But the Harper government hasa clear plan to attack unions. The government hasundermined collective bargaining in the federal sec-tor, and emboldened employers to drive down wagesand attack pensions in the private sector. In addi-tion, through legislation like Bill 377, the Harper
Conservatives are attempting to rob unions of theability to use their resources to defend their mem-bers and civil society. So what is the solution?
Canadians need our country’s premiers todenounce this low-wage agenda and stand up for thebest interest of working people. The premiers needto call for an end to the expansion of the TFWP.They must demand that Ottawa invest in training tobridge the skills gap, so that unemployed Canadianscan fill available jobs.
Premiers should also call for improvements toCanada’s EI program, as fewer than 40 per cent ofunemployed Canadians are currently eligible forbenefits. We need our premiers to challenge thenotion that Canada must increase its retirementage to 67. What’s really needed is pension reformthat will allow all Canadians to retire in dignity. Andfinally, the premiers should recognize and defendthe important role unions play in our society andour economy.
The provinces have power. Our premiers under-stand that Canada is more than the sum of its parts.
Canadians need our premiers to push back. Andwhen they do, Canadians, the vast majority of us,will be with them.

Re: “City targets pot shop,” Wednesday, Aug. 1.To the mayor and all council members:I’m very disappointed in the decision to shut down
the dispensary.I thought we were better than that. I
thought this was Canada.You need to stand up for your citizens.
The benefits far outweigh the harm thatthese plants and this business couldbring to the city.
If you’re getting federal pressure, thenpush back. It’s your job.
If you said no because of personal reasons thenyou should step down. You’re supposed to be betterthan the ignorant masses and stand up for your cit-izens, especially those that can barely stand on theirown.
Have none of you had health issues that haven’tresponded to traditional medicines?
I’m only 35 and have multiple chronic conditionsand I’m in constant pain. I’ve tried allthe expensive drugs and surgery withno relief.
None of your loved ones have orhave had (died from) cancer? I lost myfather and mother. It’s ridiculous thata plant that helps relieve pain and hasbeen shown to eliminate cancer is still
deemed illegal.As a positive note, I guess we’ll have more space
for another “healing” fast food restaurant or “medi-cinal” liquor store.

Premier Christy Clark’s recent posturingover the proposed Enbridge pipeline is allfine and dandy, but her threats to quash
the project if B.C. doesn’t get its share of theoil profits are likely empty at best.
The question is: Will B.C. even have a say inwhether the pipeline goes through?
Sure, there are provincial permits neededfor the project to go ahead, but could thepremier really stop the pipeline? Clark andthe Liberals missed the deadline to sign up topresent evidence to the joint review panel forthe Enbridge hearing, and projects reviewedby the National Energy Board don’t get a sep-arate provincial review process.
But that’s all irrelevant anyway, because afew months ago, the Conservatives quietlyupdated their “economic action plan” websiteand happened to mention that they wouldnow have the final say in cases rejected by theNational Energy Board.
That’s right — the final decision is left inthe hands of the Conservatives, who seemawfully friendly with big oil these days. Thewhole point of the National Energy Board wasto have an independent federal body to regu-late these kinds of projects while consideringCanada’s national interests.
And what does this have to do with MetroVancouver? Kinder Morgan’s Trans Mountainline, the only line currently running oil prod-ucts to the West Coast, ends right here in ourbackyard.
The company is trying to corner the risingdemand for crude in Asia and wants to morethan double pipeline capacity from 300,000to 750,000 barrels of oil a day — that’s morethan Enbridge’s proposed 525,000 barrels forthe Northern Gateway project.
Kinder Morgan will apply for projectapproval in the next couple of years, andwhat plays out with Enbridge could be a har-binger of what’s to come for Kinder Morgan.Something to think about next time we headto the polls, perhaps?

Smart metersaren’t so smart
Smart meters aren’t smart atall, unless they are hooked up toa dedicated computer that mon-itors appliances, fixtures, variousalarms, heating, lights, the auto-mated opening/closing of shutters,drapes, etc.
Domotic (home automation)systems have been used in Europefor many years now as hydro,water, gas, etc. have always beenmuch more expensive than here,giving a strong incentive to home-owners to save as much energy aspossible without having to live toospartan a life.
In one country I know well,a year is divided into blue days,white days and red days. Some ofthese days aren’t always falling onthe same date every year. The daysall have so many hours at peakrate, so many at the off-peak ratebut the rates change depending onthe colour of a given day. The peakrate on a red day, for example, isfour times the peak rate of a whiteday. Obviously no one is going tokeep all that in mind — hence theneed for a little friendly computer.
The home automation systemwill be preset by a homeowner toensure that the hydro used by thehome — monitored by the smartmeter — is always kept at an opti-mum level (comfort and consump-tion) depending on the rates at anygiven time.
Twenty odd years ago, when life
was simpler, breakers (far morecomplex than what we have) fornon-essential appliances and fix-tures went off automatically thenback on a while later — after thebreaker box did its own safetycheck.
Since then homeowners haveadded many more features, light-ing schemes, etc. and applianceshave become smart too (besidesbeing misers with water, hydroor gas, etc.) hence the need for amini-computer thatcan be controlled notonly at home but alsoremotely by phone.
Many Europeans,Australians, Japanese,etc. use simple systemswith multi-func-tions that aren’t very expensive.Of course in all these countriesboth home owners and tenantshave long been used to installingin their homes the appliances,fixtures, lights, etc. that suit theirunique lifestyle (my parents moveddozens of times, taking with themtheir expensive kitchen, cabinetsand all, besides truckloads of otherthings).
As a result, manufacturersof thousands of products usedin homes compete fiercely tocome up with the most efficient,practical, energy saving this orthat. Even the old-fashionedlooking European shutters cannow open/close automatically atpre-set times or depending on theweather.
BC Hydro expects us to physic-ally monitor our energy consump-tion by taking a peek at their newnot-so-smart-meter then runaround the house turning on andoff things at random to reduce theenergy load.
Can you imagine how muchhydro could be saved if each homein B.C., including those in bothlow- and high-rise apartmentbuildings, had shutters to coverglass panes that aren’t always
energy efficient?Jean-Louis Brussac

‘inadequate’Re: “Do Liberals have mandate
to sell off LDB?” opinion column,Wednesday, July 18.
It is time for Keith Baldrey tocall it quits and retire from doingthe present commentary job.
He is just like Adrian Dix, liv-ing in the twilight zone. He writesabout the B.C. Liberal governmentbeing “Clearly unpopular with amajority of its constituents.”
How did he come up with thatphrase? Surely not from the inad-equate polling results. The pollingresults are bogus, big time. Thereare millions of taxpayers in B.C.These polls usually are done with1,000 responses. To get a moretrue picture of what taxpayersare thinking, do a poll riding byriding. That’s right, a poll of all
85 B.C. ridings. For example, theresults in Jenny Kwan’s ridingwould be for the NDP, and theresults for Rich Coleman’s ridingwould be for the Liberals.
In the provincial election, nextyear, the NDP strongholds will bewon by the NDP and the Liberalstrongholds will be won by theLiberals. What happened in 2001with the Liberals winning 77 of79 seats will not happen with theNDP this time around.
If Keith Baldrey would do hishomework and go back to the B.C.2009 elections results, and applythe present 45-per-cent popularityvote for the NDP to the 2009 elec-tion results, the NDP would still bethe opposition party.
He is assuming, and that is badin his profession. Assume meansthat you are making an “ass” outof “u and me.”
Mr. Baldrey, please do moreresearch before writing yourcommentary. The reading pub-lic were not born yesterday. Inclosing remember that the B.C.Conservative party will not winone legislature seat.

Family
It is a beautiful summerafternoon.
You settle yourself onthe bleachers to watch eight-year-old Riley play soccer.
The game is a lot of fun.The parents in the stands arefriendly and enjoy watchingthe kids. Riley is dribblingthe ball down thefield. A playeron the opposingteam takes theball from him. Heheads off with theball and with agreat kick puts itin the goal.
Riley is furi-ous. He yells atthe other player,at the referee and then at hiscoach.
“It’s not fair! That was myball. Take away the goal, hedoesn’t deserve it!”
You are humiliated. Couldthis out-of-control playerreally be your little Riley?When did he become such apoor sport?
Then you remember thatlast evening when you wereplaying a board game and hewas losing he dumped theboard and all the pieces onthe floor and stomped downthe hall.
It’s time to teach Riley howto be a good sport and a gra-cious loser. Talk to him aboutthe rules of the game and howhe could have reacted in a waythat was more appropriate.
After the soccer game tellhim what you saw and howyou felt about his behaviouron the field. Then ask himwhat he would have done if hehad the chance to take a ballaway from another player. Ofcourse he would have done so.It’s part of the game.
Talk to his coach and askhim to work with you to helpyour son turn his behaviouraround. The coach needs toknow that you saw what hap-pened and that you will backhim up when he talks to Rileyabout what he expects of himon the field.
If the coach decides thatRiley has to sit out the rest ofthe game when he is a poor
sport, support him. Riley willlikely complain and want youto do something about hisbeing benched. If you tell himthat you believe the coach didthe right thing, he will reallyget the message. Then askhim what he needs to do tobe permitted to play with his
teammates.Carry on the
same conse-quences at home.When you areplaying a boardgame remind himof the rules ofbehaviour. It’s OKto be upset whenyou are losing,but not to be
disruptive, yell or throw theboard and pieces on the floor.
If he continues to be a poorsport, remind him of yourexpectations. If it continues,calmly pack up the game andlet him know you can’t playwhen he is being such a soreloser. If there are other kidsalso playing the game, hemust drop out of the gameand can try again next timeyou play.
Being a good sport is dif-ficult. There are many skillsto learn. A good sport waitshis turn, accepts coachingadvice, avoids arguments withthe referee, sticks to rulesand continues to play hisbest even when the team islosing badly. Teach your childhow to encourage his peers.Remind him that the gamewill be more fun if everyoneis feeling positive, and he canhelp make that happen bynoticing when a teammatemakes a good play. Thesemaxims apply in all gamesituations. It may be a teamsport, a music competition, aboard game, a spelling bee ora schoolyard game of marbles.
Learning how to lose gra-ciously, how to play fairly andhow to support your team-mates and opponents is moreimportant than becoming theworld’s best player.

There are a lot of skills involved in being a good sport.
On July 24, the U.S. Consumer ProductSafety Commission announced a recallof several models of strollers due to thedeath of a six-month-old baby by entrap-ment and strangulation in 2004.
The affected strollers were manufac-tured in a variety of colours betweenJanuary 2004 and September 2007.
While the models of Peg Perego stroll-ers recalled in the U.S. were not sold inCanada, similar models were distributedin Canada between January 2004 andDecember 2007, according to a pressrelease from Health Canada.
The department is currently determin-ing which specific models of strollers areaffected in Canada. Should a Canadianrecall be necessary, a notice will be post-ed on Health Canada’s Consumer ProductRecall Database.
However, Health Canada received areport in 2006 of a fatality in a stroller,due to entrapment and strangulation of achild left unattended and unrestrained.
While this safety review is underway,Health Canada is reminding Canadiansthat children left unattended in strollersare at risk of entrapment, asphyxiationor falls.
Deaths and injuries have occurredin strollers and other juvenile prod-ucts when children were left sleepingunattended or when stroller restraintsystems were not used.
An infant can pass through the open-ing between the stroller tray and seatbottom, but his or her head and neck canbecome entrapped by the tray. Infantswho become entrapped at the neck are atrisk of strangulation.
Parents and caregivers should alwaysbe mindful of how to help make suretheir children are safe when using stroll-ers.
Health Canada advises the following:• Always use the stroller’s restraint
system.• Do not leave children unattended in
strollers.• Infants and young children should
never be placed to sleep in products thatare not specifically designed to accommo-date an unattended sleeping infant, suchas carriages, strollers, car seats, playpens,infant swings and bouncers.

As part two of a series ofthree columns on shell-fish, this one will con-
tinue to focus on crustaceans.If you missed my previouscolumn on crab and lobster,please e-mail me at [email protected] and I will bemore than happyto send it to you.
Crustacean isthe grouping thatrepresents crabs,lobsters, shrimp,crayfish, etc. Theyare all more “crea-ture like” thanmollusks (theother shellfishcategory that willbe my focus in thethird instalment) because oftheir visible legs and eyes.
They are usually thoughtof as only living in saltwater,which is true for the mostpart, but there are someforms of crayfish, crab andshrimp that also inhabit bod-ies of fresh water. Lake of theWoods in Kenora, Ont., wherewe vacation quite frequently,is a perfect example of this.There are many crayfish to befound and some fishers focussolely on these for their catchof the day.
The availability of prawnsand shrimp is much morecommon than crayfish. Rarelyavailable live, the marketsnear the coast will have
prawns and shrimp availablefresh (not previously frozen).However, elsewhere they areusually purchased either fro-zen or thawed from frozen.Small shrimp are also avail-able in cans.
Prawns and shrimp as weknow them in themarket are actual-ly only the tails ofthese creatures.Some prawns areavailable withthe legs and shellstill attached, butrarer are somelarger varietiessold in wholeform, eyes and all.
When purchas-ing frozen, there are manyoptions and you will need totake into account how youplan to serve them whenmaking your selection. Verysmall shrimp, whether fro-zen, thawed or canned, arealways sold pre-cooked, butwith larger prawns one alsohas the option of purchas-ing them raw. Frozen cookedprawns should be purchasedfor recipes that require littleor no cooking, since they arealready cooked. Overcookedprawns are very rubbery andless flavourful. Examplesof applications for cookedprawns would be for a salad,shrimp cocktail, or for add-ing at the end of a cooked
dish. Proper thawing of yourprawns is recommended toprevent bacteria growth.
Whether cooked or raw,the recommended procedurefor thawing them is in therefrigerator over a period of24 hours. This is a gradualthaw that keeps them in a safetemperature storage zone.If you are in a hurry, then awater thaw can be acceptableas a second choice.
This is done by putting thefrozen prawns in a bowl in thesink. Fill the bowl with coldwater and continue to run aslow stream of cold tap waterinto the bowl.
The water level willobviously overflow so makesure the drain is open. Keeprunning the stream of coldwater until the prawns are
thawed, approximately 15to 20 minutes depending ontheir size.
Raw prawns purchasedfresh, frozen or thawedobviously need to be cooked,but one should never over-cook any shellfish because itwill become rubbery. They
should only be cooked untilthey just turn pink for opti-mal flavour and texture, andshould be served immediately.Raw prawns are availablepeeled or unpeeled, with orwithout tails, and de-veinedor not. Deveining of largerprawns should always be done.
The “vein” is the long darkintestine embedded along thetop length of the prawn. If theprawns you have purchasedare not deveined this can beeasily performed by runninga knife blade along this lineuntil it is exposed. It can thenbe simply pulled or scrapedout.
Prawns that still have theirshell on, but have alreadybeen deveined, are frequentlycalled “zipperbacks.” Theseare perfect when you want toserve prawns as a finger foodso your guests can peel themas they eat — aptly called
“peel and eats.”
Dear Chef Dez:“I heard someone referring
to prawns as a 20, 25. Whatdoes this mean?”
Rachel T.Airdrie, AB
Dear Rachel:This is referring to their
size. A 20/25 prawn is verylarge. It means that thereare approximately 20 to 25prawns per pound. Therefore,prawns considered to be 32/36would be much smaller, asthere would be an average of32 to 36 per pound.

One of the hardest things to put up with is chronicpain. Mrs. M, 51 at the time of trial, knew that frombitter personal experience.
Mrs. M had injured the soft tissues of her neck andshoulder in a rear-end accident. At the trial, 3 1/2 yearsafter the accident, she still complained of pain. She alsoclaimed she couldn’t return to work as a seamstressor resume her previous recreational and domesticactivities.
After the accident, Mrs. M received over 300physiotherapy treatments and saw multiple medicalspecialists. None, however, could find any physicalcause for her continuing symptoms. But none alsosuggested that she was malingering or intentionallyhanging on to her problems.
In the end, the B.C. Court of Appeal upheld thetrial judgment awarding Mrs. M some $134,000 incompensation.
The court said that where accident victims continueto suffer after their physical injuries have healed, anobvious question arises: Is such pain “real”? But,the court said, even if psychologically-caused, suchpain is still compensable if the person can prove twothings: first, that the psychological pain was caused bythe accident and not by a desire for care, sympathy,relaxation or compensation, and second, that theperson cannot overcome the problems through his orher own “will-power.”
In another case, Mrs. Y, 53, also fought to prove herchronic neck and shoulder pain wasn’t imagined andshould be compensated. She should have recoveredfrom her soft tissue injuries within a few weeks or, atmost, a few months after her car accident. But shedidn’t.
Before her accident, she ran the family home, playedtennis and volleyball, taught her daughter dancing,singing and music, and was actively involved in their
church. After, however, she was depressed, couldn’tsleep, and suffered constant pain and discomfort. Shespent most of her time in a wheelchair and wouldn’tleave the home alone. Her husband even quit his job tostay home and look after her.
Mrs. Y was found to have a “somatoform paindisorder”–anunconsciousneedtobeinthedependentinvalid role, with her husband and daughter expressinggreat concern for her and paying her lots of attention.Like Mrs. M, Mrs. Y wasn’t doing this on purpose, norwas she motivated by any conscious desire to resistgetting better.
The B.C. Court of Appeal awarded Mrs. Y evenmore money than Mrs. M – $75,000 for her chronicpain and suffering and more than $150,000 for loss ofhomemaking and other losses.
In general, then, our highest court in B.C. hasconfirmed that chronic pain you suffer following aninjury is compensable – even if there’s no physicalreason to explain it – if the pain was triggered by theaccident and you can’t overcome it through your ownsheer will-power.
But, remember, each case will be judged on its ownspecific facts, and more importantly, on the credibilityof the person claiming ongoing pain and disability.Your lawyer can advise you and help you obtain faircompensation.

Garden
Once summer crops areharvested, the vacantsoil they leave is a great
opportunity to start plant-ing winter vegetables. Forinstance, some of the hardiersalad crops such as winter let-tuce and radishes can be sownuntil the end ofSeptember in theopen garden.
If you have asheltered place,sowing of thesetwo crops cancontinue longer— until the endof October. Butfor winter gardensit’s important tochoose cold-resist-ant types of lettuce such aswinter density or coastal star.Hardier radishes include theheirloom black Spanish roundor celesta.
Spinach seed can be sownuntil mid-October, and socan mustard seed. The cold-resistant heirloom mustard,giant red, can be very reward-ing as a winter food crop.Unfortunately, with all thesethin, leafy winter crops slugsare a huge hazard.
Mulching a winter gardenagainst cold is helpful fornutrition and cold protection,but double jeopardy for slugsthat hide under the mulchbetween attacks and lay eggs— ready to hatch and giveyou extra grief in spring.
When temperatures dip, ithelps to have some row cov-ers handy. Agricultural fleeceonly raises the temperaturea degree or two but it’s often
enough to tip the balance infavour of survival.
It’s always useful to remem-ber that nothing grows fast inwinter’s cold temperatures.This means that cut-and-come-again salad greensare gone once they’re cut.
Replacementleaves are unlikelyto appear. That’swhy it’s importantto plant enough inthe first place.
A leafy cropthat’s slug andcold resistant iscorn salad, whichcan be sown upto about mid-September. It’s a
tasty dwarf plant with a densecluster of deep green glossyleaves.
Some winter crops needquick action at this time.Carrot seed and pea seedshould be planted up to aboutmid-August. Good places toplant fall peas might includethe old garlic, shallot or onionbed.
My father always planteda late crop of peas, which hecalled his “silly crop” becausesometimes it failed due toweather. But when rain andtemperatures co-operated, hewas able to gather lots of peas.Choosing to plant snap peasfor a late crop and then eatingor freezing the pods ratherthan waiting for green shell-ing peas would guarantee youan earlier harvest in a goodyear.
People who like kale,broccoli and other cabbages
but didn’t plant seed earlierstill have time to get sometransplants at garden cen-tres. Ideally, cabbages andkale plants should be in theground by mid-August.
I’ve been told that flower-ing cabbage and kale can becut for eating after decoratingwinter containers or gardenbeds — though it’s also reput-ed to be quite strong-tasting.
It’s often recommendedthat broad beans should besown in mid-November forover-wintering, resulting ina very early crop in spring. Isuspect this tactic works bet-ter for coastal gardeners andpeople who have sandy, well-drained soil.
There’s a lot to be saidfor growing the leafy type ofwinter vegetables in contain-ers, especially if they are largecontainers and can be placednear the east, south or westwall of the house.
Slug control is much easierin containers, and the extrawarmth of a house wall is alsobeneficial.

Centennial Secondary’s Classof ’87 met at the Port Moodybranch of the Royal Canadian
Legion last weekend to celebrate their25th reunion.
Former classmates came from allof the junior high schools of the dayto meet and greet and listen to ’80smusic — Bon Jovi, Prince, the BeastieBoys, Run DMC, Poison and GeorgeMichael were some of the biggest hit-makers back in the day. Incidentally,Sidney Crosby was born that year.
Organizers say 127 people attendedthe reunion: 120 grads, seven spouses/partners and three former teachers —Earl Lesk, Lee Taylor and Kim Elliott.
Grads came from far and wide, withAngie Unger and Curtis and IngridBrager winning the prize for travellingfrom Qatar and Australia, respectively.
Grads also hailed from as far eastas Ontario in Canada, and from bothU.S. coasts, from New Hampshire andCalifornia.
A few have trickled across both ofB.C.’s borders into Washington andAlberta, but the majority have stayedin Metro Vancouver, with Coquitlamthe most represented.
Sammy J’s Grill & Bar, MinterGardens and Hells Gate Airtram con-tributed raffle donations.
The main organizer was PamAnderson, with help from others.

Dear Tom and Ray:“The tires on my wife’s ’05 Infiniti FX35 are
about six months old. We had no problemswith them, until three weeks ago. When driv-ing down the highway, the tire-pressure warn-ing light came on. I pulled over to see whichone had gone flat, but lo and behold, the rightfront tire was registering 57 psi! Ireduced the pressure to 36, con-tinued my drive home, checkedthe tires the next morning, foundeverything OK, figured it was justa fluke and forgot about it. Then, afew days ago, the exact same thinghappened again. Same car, sametire, same highway. I’ve taken thecar back to the reputable dealerwhere I purchased the tires. Noone has heard of this before, andthey can find nothing wrong withthe car or the tire. I don’t even think theybelieve me. What do you think, guys?”
— Rob
TOM: We think you’re a liar, Rob. There’s noway a tire can double its own air pressure with-out human intervention. One of my ex-wivesput you up to this, didn’t she?
RAY: I agree that a tire can’t gain that muchair on its own. Now, tire pressure does go upabout one pound per square inch (psi) forevery 10-degree rise in the tire’s temperature.But even that won’t explain what happened inyour case.
TOM: Think about it — even if your tirestarted at 60 degrees in your driveway and
went up to 160 on the highway (which is high),that would add only another 10 pounds of pres-sure — not 25.
RAY: Nor does it explain why the pressuresin the other tires didn’t go up by the sameamount. They were on the same car, on thesame highway.
TOM: I suppose it’s possible thatif you had a brake caliper that wassticking on that wheel, highwaydriving could heat up the wheelitself, which would then heatup the tire. So you can ask yourrepair person to check for signs ofa sticky caliper on that wheel. Butto get that hot, it would have to beso sticky that it would be almostseized.
RAY: So the most likely explana-tion is that it was a measurement
error. Did you actually use a tire gauge tocheck all four tires? Or did you just look at thetire-pressure monitor readings on the car’sdashboard?
TOM: If you were just reading the pressuresfrom the dashboard monitor, then I suspectthat the pressure sensor in your right frontwheel is faulty. Each wheel has its own sensorthat sends its pressure reading wirelessly to thecar’s computer. Sometimes those sensors gobad. It may even have been damaged when youhad your new tires installed six months ago.
RAY: So, the first thing you should do isspend 10 bucks and get yourself a decent digit-al tire gauge. Then, next time this happens, getan actual reading from the tire itself. If it’s the
same as the other tires, then the tire-pressuresensor probably is bad, and for less than a hun-dred bucks, you could have it replaced.
TOM: If, on the other hand, a reliable tiregauge actually reads 57 pounds of air, then
residing in your front tire is a new species ofprolific, rubber-eating, flatulence-producingbacteria that has heretofore been undiscoveredby science. Make sure they name it after you,Rob.
Faulty sensor likely behind reading of 57 psi
Click and ClackTom and Ray Magliozzi
Dreamstime
Even if your car has a dashboard monitor that shows readings for tire pressure, youshould own a tire gauge to check the pressure yourself, since pressure sensors in thewheels can send inaccurate readings to the car’s computer.

Alcohol use and low-risk drinking guidelinesAlcohol is a depressant drug that slows down your central nervous system. In smallquantities, it can be beneficial to our health with little risk of negative consequences.When alcohol is consumed it takes about twenty minutes to be absorbed into thebloodstream and one hour to process a single drink. A single drink consists of one12oz bottle of beer or cooler, a 5oz glass of wine, or 1½ oz of hard alcohol.
People who do not drink represent about 15 percent of the population. Light socialdrinkers consume between 1 and 6 drinks a month. This is also about 15 percent ofthe population. Regular drinkers consume between 2 and 16 drinks a week; making upabout 35 percent of the population. About 20 percent of the population are problematicdrinkers who consume over 20 drinks a week. The issue with this level of consumptionis health problems from long-term use. Those who fall in the abuse/addiction categoryare those drinkers who regularly become intoxicated. This is about 15 percent ofdrinkers.
Regular heavy drinking over a number of years increases health risks including cancerof the breast, mouth, throat and esophagus; chronic gastritis and pancreatitis; ulcers,high blood pressure and stroke, heart muscle weakness; liver damage, cognitiveproblems, nerve damage; impotency and depression.
CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR DRINKING? HERE IS A SIMPLE TEST.

When he puts things in his sights, Doug Blessinisn’t one to miss.
The Port Coquitlam resident turned a newinterest into a dedicated passion — and in just overthree years has earned a spot at the biggest competi-tion in the world.
Blessin will represent Canada at next month’sParalympics in London in the sport of competitiveshooting.
He was one of two people chosen to compete at the2012 Paralympics, after a gruelling competition thatpitted the relative rookie against a grizzled veteran.
“I beat a guy who had 20 years of shooting experi-ence — I had a real good day,” says Blessin.
For someone with a natural competitive nature, thequick rise was still a bit of a surprise.
“I take it really seriously,” says Blessin. “I’m neverone to take up a sport just for fun. I want to be thebest that I can at whatever I’m playing.”
Sports has played a large role in his life, even after acar accident in 1995 left him partially paralyzed.
That traumatic event changed his life, but he’sstrived to make sure it doesn’t define it.
“Since then I’ve lived the dream,” he says.“I loved to play sports of all kinds growing up, and
what I found was that I liked sports that were indi-vidual as opposed to team sports. If something goeswrong, it’s on your shoulders. And if it goes right, youget the credit.”
After his accident, Blessin took up wheelchairrugby. Through meeting the game’s founder, DuncanCampbell, Blessin proceeded to the provincial teamand played at the nationals.
Nine years ago, he and wife Joanne were blessedwith the birth of twin sons, which resulted in himchoosing to trade in the rugby ball in exchange for thefun challenges of being a father.
With the boys older and playing their own sports,Blessin decided to pick up a new game to fill his com-petitive urge.
“I didn’t want to go back to rugby and put my bodythrough that punishment,” he said. “I loved it but now
I’m older [and] wiser.”That’s where shooting came in.Under the guidance of coach/competitor Christos
Trifonidis, Blessin found a fit that suited his skills.“Every time I went shooting I got positive feedback.
I kind of take it as it comes… Once I started tasting alittle success, I pushed for more. I had to have a cus-tom-made table made for my chair.
“Everything has to be exactly perfect and right inthis sport.”
While he didn’t target the world’s biggest stagewhen he first picked up the air rifle, Blessin remem-bers how his competitive nature seemed to preparehim for such a challenge.
“I was just thinking about that exact question,”he says. “I recalled when I first really looked at theOlympics, maybe in 1984. I thought, Wow, it would beso awesome to be on that stage and doing somethingto represent my country. And now I am.
“When I made the national team it was really emo-tional, I shot my best match to date... There were a lotof people who I had to call and thank for helping meget there.”
A five-goal performancefrom veteran Ben McIntoshprovided some timely sparkTuesday in the CoquitlamAdanacs’ 12-7 win over theDelta Islanders in Game 1 oftheir B.C. Junior A LacrosseLeague final.
McIntosh tallied twicewithin a span of 29 secondsto propel the regular seasonchampion Adanacs into a 5-2lead 14 minutes into the game.
He would pick up histhird goal minutes later, asCoquitlam staked out a 7-4advantage after one period.
The 21-year-old righthanderadded a goal in the second andanother in the third, as thedefending league champs set adominating tone to begin thebest-of-seven final series.
Robert Church cashed intwice and set up three others,while Reid Reinholdt had agoal and five assists.
Chipping in with singlemarkers were Nathan Klein,Vincent Ricci, Challen Rogersand Cole Shafer, while WesleyBerg drew four assists.
Delta’s Logan Schuss scoredtwice and set up four others.
Making 29 saves to pick upthe win was Davide DiRuscio,while Coquitlam pelted PeterDubenski with 48 shots.
The Islanders advancedafter knocking off the NewWestminster Salmonbellies infive games.

Port Moody rower collects London silver
Lisa King/NOW
In three and a half years, Port Coquitlam’s Doug Blessin has gone from raw rookie to national team sharp shooter. He will be heading to Londonnext month to compete at the 2012 Paralympics. He will compete Aug. 30 in the 10m air pistol event.
The Canadian women’s eight rowingteam put their best effort out on thewater Thursday, picking up silver at the2012 London Olympics.
Squaring off against the world cham-pion American squad, Canada stayedfirmly in second with a late charge.
The U.S., who won gold in Beijingand have not lost in six years, finishedwith a time of 6:10.59, while Canadacrossed the finish line in 6:12.06, a sec-ond faster than the Netherlands.
“We weren’t worried about the Dutchat all. We were out there to win, andwere watching the whole field, but wewere focused on our own boat and ourrace plan,” Lesley Thompson-Willie ofLondon, Ont. said in a press release.
Canada’s rowing team includes
Port Moody’s Krista Guloien, AshleyBrzozowicz, Janine Hanson, DarcyMarquardt, Natalie Mastracci,Andreanne Morin, Rachelle Viinbergand Lauren Wilkinson and Thompson-Willie.
“You’ve got to race for gold to landamongst the medals,” Guloien tweetedafter getting her medal. “We did and welanded ourselves a silver!”
The Canadians basked in the celebra-tion of their journey, which includeda second-place showing by just 0.03seconds behind the U.S. at a World Cuprace in Switzerland two months ago.
This time, the Americans claimed aquick lead and held it. Canada made apush over the final 1,000 metres, post-ing the fastest split over that distance.
Guloien was one of seven membersof the team who had competed in 2008in Beijing — with Guloien then in thewomen’s four.
For some rowers, London is thebookend of a tremendous rowingcareer. Thompson-Willie is 52, and ayounger generation of rowers — manyof whom have been inspired to join thesport by the current team — will beready to challenge for national teampositions over the next four years.
For now, enjoying the moment wasabout huge smiles, hugs and tears.
“It hasn’t hit me yet. It’s an amazinggroup of women that I’ve had the privi-lege to row with and we gave it our all,no regrets,” said Wilkinson, of NorthVancouver. “Fuel to the fire for 2016.”

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections August 5 - 11, 2012★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Aries March 21 - April 19: Your romantic, creative,speculative winning streak continues. Recent delaysand returnees from the past recede after Tuesday(though a love who has returned – if this occurred –might be worth keeping). By Wednesday onward, youare free to start projects, seek new relationships, andmake important decisions. (Although your decision-making might be a little tentative until Aug. 22.) Inthe next two weeks you might roar ahead, chasingromance – and landing it. Your energy and charismasurgeupwardSundayp.m.toTuesday.Start significantprojects, especially creative/speculative ones.Taurus April 20-May 20: Delays and indecisionend by midweek. You’re free to press forward,especially in food/shelter and realty areas, romanceand creative projects, and money concerns. Retreat,rest Sunday to Tuesday – you can accomplish muchin home areas, especially Monday daytime. Yourenergy and magnetism return Wednesday/Thursday:take Step One toward a major wish or goal. Chasemoney Friday p.m. (avoid deception, con artists) andSaturday. A dollar venture might begin Saturday; ithas a lucky future. Until Aug. 24, your employmentscene remains intense, wearying. Friends show newaffection.Gemini May 21-June 20: You’re in your element–travel, communications, quick-minded friends andaffectionate siblings fill your days. By Wednesdaythree weeks of delays, mistakes and indecision end.(Though a bit of indecision lasts for about two moreweeks.) Sunday afternoon to Tuesday raises yourhopes and might fulfill a wish around social life orromance. Speaking of amour, your romantic courageremains high for 18 more days – take advantage!Your luck and cheerfulness grow every week.Tuesdaybegins four weeks of money luck. Retreat midweek.Your energy, charisma soar Friday eve/Saturday.
Cancer June 21-July 22: Three weeks of delaysend late Tuesday, freeing you to start new projects.You can march forward confidently, especially withmoney and purchases – but don’t buy anything ifyou first saw it after July 13. You become mildlylucky, attractive and gracious through August.Step softly at home, where conflicts can arise. Anunsteady or “foundation poor” job or career projectcan collapse. If so, start again! Sunday’s mellow.This p.m. to Tuesday highlights your ambitions andrelations with higher-ups (best Monday). Popularity,wish fulfillment and social delights visit midweek.Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Your energy and charismaremain super-high. By midweek, recent delays,mistakes and indecision end. Start importantprojects, seek favours, make proposals, see andbe seen, display your talents! In relationships,uncertainty and illusion are gone – forever. Plan ona very active social life, because it’s coming, willlast to next June. Oddly, “sweet solitude” drawsyou also (all August) – balance this, use it for rest.Sunday to Tuesday bring wisdom, intellectual andtravel events. Pursue career/prestige ambitionsWednesday/Thursday. Social joys, flirtation andpopularity, late week.Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Three weeks of delay,indecision and mistakes end Wednesday night.(The indecision might linger awhile longer.) Moneyflows swiftly to you (until August 23) but it willalso quickly flow away: only buy what you need,at a low price. This week and next, discuss, planor contemplate your career future (and its financialoutlook) – especially Saturday, when a small seed isan oak tree in disguise! Generally, you’re tired, yourstove’s on “pilot light.” Seek spirit, be kind to others.Luckiest days: Monday (money, sex); Wednesday/Thursday (travel, love); and Saturday (career).
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Delays, mistakes andindecision end midweek. Charge into social affairs– your popularity, hopes, and flirtatious situations geta new life, a second chance, for two more weeks.You might start a love affair! A wish will come truein these areas. Sunday p.m. to Tuesday accentscrucial relationships – Monday’s best. Wednesday/Thursday bring intimacy, financial opportunities –and consequential action in either area. Gentle love,far travel, cultural involvements arise late week. Thisis your zone of great luck to mid-2013: Saturday/Sunday (August 11/12) are a significant beginning.Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Tuesday ends threeweeks of delay and indecision, especially in career,VIP relations and prestige zones. These zones arenow favoured, so push ahead, butter up VIPs, ask formore responsibility, etc. Abandon a crippled venturebegun since July 14. In the weeks ahead, your workmight involve government liaisons, management,administrative chores. Same period, avoid dark alleysand late clubs: you’re physically vulnerable.Wisdom,love, cultural and intellectual progress blesses you allmonth. The seeds of future success can be plantedSaturday, in finances and intimacy – go!Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Past delays end,especially in moral, intellectual, far travel, culturaland love zones. For two weeks ahead, pursue theseareas primarily – and confidently. Big relationshipchanges loom over the next ten months: you mightmarry (or divorce, if you’re presently unhappy).Contemplate these now, look ahead, and place themin the context of your whole life. Sunday afternoonto Tuesday brings beauty, romance, a creativeor gambling mood. Tackle chores or purchasemachinery Wednesday/Thursday – success verylikely. Partnerships, competition face new beginningslate week: good!
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: The need to delay,to catch up with the past (and past obligations/opportunities) now ends (Tuesday) especially infinancial, debt, investment, sexual, intimate andhealth matters. March forward confidently in theseareas for the next two weeks. Bosses and higher-upsare temperamental until late August, but your peers,including prospective lovers (when I say “oppositesex,” gays complain) treat you with a new affectionand warmth until early September. So it evens out. Abig work project has been gestating “secretly” for amonth or more: it might birth/emerge late week.Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Recent delays,misunderstandings and barriers dissolve bymidweek,especially in relationships, litigation, public dealings,negotiations, opportunities and relocation prospects.March forward in these areas, and in romance, love,creative and speculative projects. (One exception:DON’T proceed to litigation if you can avoid it. Therewould be lots of fees, little progress.) Your work scenebecomes mildly lucky, co-workers affectionate.Talk, travel, paperwork early week. Home, rest,Wednesday/Thursday. Romance, beauty, pleasure – awinning streak – late week. Maybe new love!Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Delays end now,Pisces, especially in work, machinery and healthareas. March steadily ahead in these for the next twoweeks. Money matters are sparked Sunday p.m. toTuesday. Spend, earn, buy and sell – Monday’s best.Midweek brings paperwork, short trips, details, newsand casual friends. Be curious, ask questions. Fridayafternoon through Saturday accents home, security,nutrition, children, gardening and retirement plans.A small seed planted here (Saturday) will grow intosomething big over the next ten months. Continue toavoid impulsive action in finances and intimacy.
