The temperature warrants addi-tional shelter, but the numbersdo not.

The regional extreme weatherresponse shelter has been given thegreen light to begin operating, but thebrisk attendance numbers associatedwith the cold wet weather mat pro-gram have not warranted opening thePoCo-based facility full time.

Funded by BC Housing, the extremeweather shelter at Trinity UnitedChurch opens if certain criteria aremet: the mat program has to be at85-per-cent capacity (25 people) on anevening where the temperature dipsbelow -2 C.

So far this month, the Hope ForFreedom Society’s mat program hasaveraged between 10 and 12 people perevening at Port Moody’s St. Andrew’sUnited Church.

“I’m so surprised, in fact, that theutilization of the mat program hasbeen so low,” said extreme weatherresponse shelter co-ordinator PatDewhirst.

The extreme weather shelter openedfor the first time on Tuesday, primar-

ily because Dewhirst feared the drop intemperature could be dangerous. Thefacility has allowances for individuals’possessions and pets, and drew fivepeople and two dogs that night. It didnot open on Wednesday.

“The reason the extreme weathershelter opened Tuesday was the extra-

ordinary low temperatures we wereexpecting. I just couldn’t bear thethought that someone would curl upand die because they were too stub-born to go to the more distant shel-ter,” Dewhirst said.

“It was a conscience thing.”Like the cold wet weather mat pro-

gram, the extreme weather responseshelter offers clients a meal uponarrival in the evening, and anothermeal in the morning before they leave.It operates from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. dur-ing winter months and, unlike at themat program, clients may walk up tothe shelter.

As co-ordinator of the extremeweather shelter, Dewhirst has theauthority to issue an extreme weatheralert, which is passed along to localservice agencies, and both the PortMoody Police Department and theCoquitlam RCMP.

That extreme weather alert can becalled if it’s “-2 C, very snowy, veryrainy or very windy.”

“But the -2 C temperature criterioncan be plus or minus because you haveto take into account other factors likethe wind chill. So many other factorscan influence it,” she said.

Dewhirst said she issued an extremeweather alert on Sunday, though thePoCo shelter did not open.

“We are encouraging the police tolook out for folks who appear to behomeless and offer them the oppor-tunity to go into a shelter,” she said.

Hope For Freedom Society manag-ing director Rob Thiessen was unavail-able for comment, although Tri-CitiesHomelessness Task Group chair SandyBurpee offered up a few theories as towhy the attendance numbers associ-ated with the mat program have beenso low.

“Clearly some people get transport-ed out of their comfort zones. I knowthat people who have been on thestreets for a long time develop thesezones of comfort and they don’t liketo stray outside those zones,” Burpeesaid.

“Perhaps, you get used to [the cold].Maybe being outside on a continuingbasis is better than coming indoorsovernight, getting warm, and then at7 o’clock the next morning having togo back outside again in this frigidweather.”

After its stay in Port Moody, the coldwet weather mat program will moveto three Coquitlam churches (EagleRidge Bible Fellowship, CoquitlamAlliance Church and Calvary Baptist)from December to February, beforewrapping up at PoCo’s NorthsideFoursquare Church in March.

There may be a cheery veneer to the season,but hunger persists. The SHARE Family &Community Services Society has been rampingup food bank operations ahead of the holidays,anticipating registrations to rise yet again.

“This year we’re expecting, based on whatwe’re seeing at the food bank, a slight increase.We’re preparing for 15 per cent more,” SHAREdevelopment director Heather Scott said. “Wedon’t want to be caught without, so we needto prepare for an increase. Our numbers at thefood bank are showing we should expect thesame number as last year and more.”

Last week the food bank distributed 464hampers to families needing help, which onlyconstitutes half of recipients who can use theservice biweekly. Scott said last week had anincrease of five per cent, which can fluctuate.

“Some weeks are marginal increases, butwe’re not seeing declines,” she said. “We arerunning about consistent withlast year’s numbers.”

In terms of registrations forChristmas hampers, SHAREstaff signed up 817 families asof Nov. 17, and is expectingthat number to grow to at least1,920.

“Christmas is the breaker,”Scott said, pointing to exter-nal factors like cold weatherimpacting costs like heat-ing bills. “You don’t see thefamilies the rest of the year,they’re barely making endsmeet. But this is when theycome out once a year, because they just needthat extra help to get through Christmas.”

SHARE is accepting donations of non-per-ishable food items throughout the year. Staples

like rice, pasta sauce, soup, juice, cereal,granola bars, peanut butter and canned fruit,

vegetables and meat are alwayswelcome.

Many businesses and organ-izations are also steppingup to help. The Suter BrookMerchants Association is inthe midst of planning a winterfestival for Wednesday, Dec. 1from 6 to 9 p.m.

The festivities drew morethan 1,000 people last year,and Booster Juice owner andassociation vice-presidentDarren Hill said organizersexpect even more to come outin 2010. Each merchant will

have a craft or activity available outside theirbusiness for kids and families, ranging frommarshmallow roasts to Santa letters.

Carolling hayrides will be offered, andrecording artist Jenelle Spicer will lead ridersin festive songs. A Christmas tree walk will fea-ture decorated boughs. Old Saint Nick is alsorumoured to be making an appearance.

“There will be road closures in the area, sowe’re asking people to be patient when park-ing,” Hill said, adding that people can dropoff food and clothing donations at merchantbooths.

“La Niña, with that coming through,it’s going to make it difficult for people tostay warm or make money, for that matter.Donations could be vital this year, for sure.”

Co-organizer Rob Paul of Bobby Paul boardshop, also has a food bank campaign. Donorsreceive an entry form to win a gift certificatefor merchandise for each can of non-perishablefood dropped off until Dec. 22.

New Westminster is asking TransLink to take three optionsfor United Boulevard extension off the table, after residents andtransit activists raised a ruckus when they saw what was beingproposed.

TransLink held an open house about theextension at the Justice Institute of B.C. on Nov.18. The extension plan is intended to solve amultitude of problems: congestion and safetyissues at Braid and Brunette avenues, multiplerail and road crossings, limited access to theBraid industrial area, a single lane Bailey Bridgeand poor pedestrian and bicycle facilities.

“It was a donnybrook,” New WestminsterMayor Wayne Wright said of the meeting. “Itwas an awful lot of people who didn’t realize theextent of what was coming.”

On Monday, New Westminster council agreedto tell TransLink that only one option is accept-able to the city: the original T-intersection con-figuration at Brunette (Option A).

“We won’t be rushed into anything. Our working withTransLink and Coquitlam — we will end up with somethingpalatable for everybody,” Wright said. “The people came out andshowed they won’t accept it. There are four different scenarios.

Only one was acceptable.”Option A, which has an estimated cost of $175.6 million,

would include an overpass for railway tracks at Braid andBrunette. Option B ($167 million), Option C ($151.3 million)and Option D ($152 million) all propose variations of a trans-portation loop through the Sapperton area near Brunette.

“We knew as soon as people saw any intrusion like that thatthere would be hell to pay,” Wright said aboutOptions B, C and D.

New Westminster Coun. Bill Harper saidOption A is the only one the city can support.

“All the other options are so intrusive to thecommunity that they are untenable and, wethink, unnecessary,” he said. “We have to dealwith the North Fraser Perimeter Road. The Cityof New Westminster has a long-standing historyof seeking mitigation of the full North FraserPerimeter Road as part of the United Boulevardextension. The entire route has to be done.They have to have a financial plan, a trafficplan, some level of commitment on dates.”

Harper believes transportation improvementsare needed, but said they can’t come at thedetriment of area residents.

“You want to live with the existing conditions that we arefaced with — 300 trucks an hour?” he said. “I never drive thatway. If I have to go across town, I don’t drive there, day ornight.”

TransLink spokesman Ken Hardie wouldn’t say whether allfour options will be presented at a future open house scheduledfor New Westminster. He said TransLink has received council’smotions regarding the project and will discuss them.

“It’s the most expensive one,” he said of Option A. “We aredealing with, easily, a $10-million difference. As part of our duediligence, we have to consider options that work at a reasonableprice.”

To get federal funding for the extension, TransLink has toassure Ottawa by Dec. 31 that the project will go ahead. Theregional transportation authority doesn’t have to provide

When did people begin to get so worried aboutgerms? I’m not talking about viruses andairborne diseases, but the bacteria that live

on every surface of the planet. Yes, they’re every-where and they’re here to stay — though they’venever left, no matter how hard we’vetried to get rid of them.

The big fuss about germs beganaround the 1950s. The more the pub-lic learned about them, the more theyfeared them. Logically, one knows thatit’s impossible to get rid of all germs— let alone permanently — but at thistime people tried.

Simple things like washing your handsbecame a ritual and overall cleanlinessbecame a necessity in life. From yourclothes to your linens to your drivewayand everything else you encountered in your day,you had to be aware of the possibility of being infect-ed by germs at any moment.

This fear seems to have died down around the’60s and ’70s with the hippie movement, whichencouraged a closer connection to nature. Gettingdown and dirty in the mud was the way to do it, butsomewhere down the line the worry about germs hascrept back into our lives — possibly hitching a ride

with society’s general fear for other people and theprobability of bad things happening. Today, germshave re-established their ranking as massive societalthreats.

Within the past couple of decades, the need forclean seems to have become a priority.Nothing is wrong with cleanliness, butwe’re taking it too far.

Thankfully we are no longer shower-ing ourselves and all our possessions inDDT, but the most important thing thatpeople seem to be forgetting is that weneed germs. There, I said it. And for allof you who didn’t know, it’s true.

Children born within the past five to10 years have begun to feel the bruntof dirt deprivation. Yes, they are beingdeprived of that organic matter that cov-

ers our planet. As babies or even as children, we allput our dirty fingers in our mouth.

As unsanitary as this may be, did you know this isan essential part of child development? Sure, it addsto the “explore for yourself” experience of youth, butbiologically it’s important for children to be exposedto filth.

An early exposure to bacteria found in everydaylife will ultimately better children’s immune systems

and disease defences. The child’s body, having beenexposed to the foreign bacteria, will begin to build atolerance to protect itself.

Another big issue is the use of hand sanitizer, par-ticularly with children.

First I ask you, have you ever actually read theingredients that go into the stuff? And if you have,why would you let a child use it knowing it getsabsorbed into the skin?

As we all know, hand sanitizer gets rid of 99.99per cent of bacteria; however, this includes the goodbacteria and oils that actually protect the body.

If it’s so bad then what are we supposed to use?Well, it’s a little thing called soap. None of thisantibacterial nonsense. Good ol’ regular soap will getall the dirt and take the bad germs with it.

To clarify, I’m not telling you to never bathe yourchildren or allow them to actually eat their mudpies, but know that not all bacteria are bad.

Regardless, we all know that after reading this col-umn, Howie Mandel is weeping in his bubble housesomewhere in the Hollywood hills.

Cleanliness is good, but we’re going too far

I want to thank publicly that wonderful lady bythe name of Jane who went out of her way to help atotal stranger and a dachshund. There are so manynegative things happening and being written aboutin the papers, and this incident proves that goodnessand compassion can still be found.

I was at the RBC at Como Lake Villageon Nov. 18 at 7:45 in the morning. I hadwalked from home to the bank with my13-year-old dachshund, who seemed toenjoy the walk and appeared to be justfine.

At the bank he had a seizure, his first one ever. Ididn’t know what to do when Jane walked into thebank. I had no car, no money with me. Jane told melater that she had just come from her shift at work,that she works for the police, and was on her wayto drop off her son at school and then go home andsleep.

She drove me home with my dog, who had losttotal control of his physical functions. I hope Ithanked her, as I was in such an emotional state andcan’t remember.

The dog had to be put down by the vet later on— no hope for recovery.

Oskar was a very special little guy; he was a dog,but also a companion and buddy. After my husband’sdeath it was the dog who unknowingly became my

therapist. He had to be taken out, fed,taken for a walk. He helped me work myway through grief and depression andgot me back into some kind of a rou-tine. He was always there, on good andnot-so-good days, was always happy tosee me. He introduced me to quite a few

people I met on my regular daily walks because hewas so friendly and wanted to be petted. His greatestcharacteristic was his love for children — particu-larly the little ones.

Presently I have to learn to live with the loss but,Jane, I will never forget you reaching out to me andhelping me realize that there still exists goodnessand compassion. Thank you once more from the bot-tom of my heart.

Can anyone remember back a coupleof months ago, when the business ofgovernment in B.C. actually involved

policies that had to do with running the prov-ince instead of the leadership battles of theLiberals and NDP? Neither can we.

While the ship of state runs on autopilot,both parties have now got down to seriousbusiness: their own political infighting.

While the Liberal caucus is busy tellingGordon Campbell not to let the door hit himon the way out, there has been a resoundingquiet so far when it comes to others eager totake over his job.

“Thanks but no thanks” has been theresponse of prominent outsiders the partyhoped might saddle up their white horses.

This leaves several party insiders luggingaround the ball-and-chain of the HST as theyconsider their ambitions.

Thursday, George Abbott made it officialwith a press conference declaring he wouldrun. He does carry HST baggage, but at leasthe has some high-level government experience— even if we’re not quite sure why he wantsthe job.

If it’s baffling to most that the first declaredLiberal candidate (Moira Stillwell) is someonefew people even recognize, consider the even-stranger implosion of the NDP. At the momentthe party should be riding high on Liberalself-destruction, a significant number of MLAshave instead decided it’s a good time to airmostly unexplained grievances with leaderCarole James. Since unhappy caucus membersaren’t talking, it’s difficult to understand theissues. Is James too nice, too nasty, too boring,too modern, too old-guard?

Nobody’s saying, and since James wasendorsed by the majority of her MLAs at ameeting last weekend, it’s likely we’ll neverfind out. Those dozen or so MLAs who didn’tsupport her, though, are surely finding partyget-togethers more than a little uncomfort-able.

Politics in B.C. has always been strange andsavage. This month it’s gotten even more so.

Voters had best put on their crash helmetsand fasten their seatbelts.

Thank you to a kind stranger Our View

Without connector,should Evergreen

be rethought?TransLink appears to have lost

all files showing the past businessjustification that supported thelong-standing commitment for theMurray-Clarke Connector throughPort Moody.

The Murray-Clarke Connector,initially a project planned bythe Ministry of Transportationand Highways as part of theBarnet/Hastings People MovingProject in 1990, has been a trans-portation priority for TransLinksince the provincial governmentdevolved responsibility for MetroVancouver‘s Major Roads Network(MRN) to TransLink in 1999.

Where is it now?According to TransLink, there

are no files in their possessionthat outline a business plan forthe Murray Clarke-Connector.How can this be when as recentlyas May 14, 2009, TransLink’s ownpress release stated the following:

“TransLink allocated $64.7 mil-lion for major road capital projectsincluding the Roberts Bank RailCorridor in the South of Fraser,the Coast Meridian Overpass inPort Coquitlam, the Murray-ClarkeConnector in Port Moody and theNorth Fraser Perimeter Road inNew Westminster.”

We now see that TransLinkhas removed the Murray-ClarkeConnector from all discus-sions concerning their 2011

Supplemental Plans. It’s alsoapparent that TransLink and theprovincial government have heldminimal, if any, discussions toalign/collaborate on a plan to buildthe Murray-Clarke Connector atthe same time as the EvergreenLine.

Just as concerning is the factthat the Evergreen Line projecthas developed all their drawingsand specifications for west PortMoody based on a prospectiveroute for the Murray-Clarke Connector— an MRN prioritythat is now not even inTransLink’s plans.

If there is noMurray-ClarkeConnector, is there abetter option in the current designand planning for the future loca-tion of an Evergreen Line stationin west Port Moody?

Residents and businesses ofPort Moody and the Tri-Citiesarea deserve a better explana-tion on reasons why the Murray-Clarke Connector is no longer aTransLink MRN priority.

In addition, area residents andbusinesses also need a betterexplanation on why two transpor-tation authorities — funded bytaxpayer dollars — have not beenable to align/collaborate on a jointbuild of the Evergreen Line andMurray-Clarke Connector in westPort Moody.

A guaranteed lossfor the NDP?

The affirmation of Carole Jamesas the NDP leader shows the gritand determination of this partyto continue on as the officialOpposition.

Their ability to “snatch defeatfrom jaws of victory” was all butensured with the announcementthat Gordon Campbell would nolonger lead the Liberal Party.

The NDP, not want-ing to take any chan-ces that they couldsqueak out a win inthe next election,decided that CaroleJames was the womanto lead them into

defeat. She has already been a two-time loser for the party, so whytake a chance with someone whomay actually look like premiermaterial?

James epitomizes a party thatis indecisive, uncommitted andrudderless. Remember when sheclaimed that Campbell ran hisparty like a dictator, not allowinghis party members to speak theirmind?

She skillfully countered thisby hypocritically expelling BobSimpson from the caucus.Simpson had the gall to actuallywant to be a representative of hisconstituents and not a James pup-pet or yes-man.

Last weekend, the NDP aban-doned ship and jumped into a

leaky boat.Neil Swanson

Thanks for a jobwell done

As a resident of Pleasantsidecommunity and frequent user ofthe Noons Creek Bridge/Ioco Roadcorridor, I, as were many of myneighbours, was concerned regard-ing the possible disruption to ourdaily travels during the replace-ment of the aging bridge deck.

It is therefore my pleasure tocommend all those involved whoplanned and executed the bridgereplacement over the past twomonths. The temporary bridgestructure was installed with appar-ently minimal damage to thesurrounding creek bed. The flagstaff and automated lights systemworked very well despite the fewimpatient drivers I had occasion toobserve bypassing those of us wait-ing our turn to cross.

Despite taking a few weekslonger than originally forecast, theentire process allowed the IocoRoad traffic to move with minimalholdups and inconvenience.

I personally found the flag staffvery polite and professional evenon dark and rainy nights. Thankyou to everyone involved, includ-ing the planners and engineerswho helped bring this project to asuccessful conclusion.

News

When snowflakes are fall-ing, websites and radio sta-tions can be a parent’s bestfriend.

School District 43 aims topost online updates by 6:15a.m. on snowy days to provideparents with the latest infor-mation about weather-relatedissues. To accomplish thatearly-morning task, many staffmembers are awake before thecrack of dawn.

That includes districtspokesperson Cheryl Quinton,who helps spread the newsabout possible school closures

and bus disruptions.“We are all up by 5 a.m.

when it’s a snow day,”Quinton said. “We havereminded the public that thedistrict website is the site tolook on after 6 a.m. They’llget things posted as close to6:15 as possible. That’s doneafter the runs are assessed byvarious people — by main-tenance crews, by securityrunners, by city crews. They’llreport to us on what areashave been taken care of. Sothe decision is based on anumber of reports coming infrom different people at differ-ent points around the district.

“It’s also based on the cur-rent weather forecast and the

hourly forecast. It’s consultedwith the B.C. SuperintendentsAssociation on what othersare doing around the LowerMainland. So there’s a num-ber of factors to considerwhen making the decision.”

By NOW deadline onThursday, District 43 schoolsremained open despite theongoing snowfall. Buses alsocontinued to operate, exceptfor some activity run cancel-lations for after-school events

and field trips. Even if schoolsstay open, however, parentsremain responsible for decid-ing whether to send kids toclass.

“Sometimes if the snowaccumulates, neighbourhoodsdon’t get plowed,” Quintonsaid. “If families ever feel it’s arisk in any way for their childto go to school, it’s alwaysultimately their decisionwhether to go or not. Schoolwork can be caught up on.”

School District 43 will postclosure information at www.sd43.bc.ca. Updates will alsobe broadcast on radio stationsCKNW 980 AM, CKWX 1130AM or CBC 690 AM.

Meanwhile, most Tri-Citiesprivate schools are also usingtheir websites and radiostations as tools to provide

parents with weather-relatedinformation. On Thursday,local private school clos-ures included Our Lady ofFatima, Queen of All Saints,Traditional Learning Academyand B.C. Christian Academy.

As well, Douglas Collegeis posting weather-relatedupdates to its website.

Connect, collaborate and celebrate.The Society for Community Development (SCD) hopes

to use these tools to build a strong and resilient Tri-Citiescommunity.

Founded in 1989, the non-profit social planning organizationaims to provide leadership and support to Tri-Cities residentswhile addressing community development issues.

Board chair Cathy Burpee said the group has delved intointensive internal work over the past two years to determine itsfuture direction.

“We reassessed and reconfirmed that our task is to listen andto help the voices be heard — to help people that have a con-cern gather together, connect, share it and for them to collab-oratively decide what the action should be,” Burpee said.

“Times are different. I think 20 years ago, you didn’t have thecollaboration between community groups that you have now… We’re really staying true to our roots — build partnerships,build bridges. But this is even a better time to do it because Ithink more groups are willing to make collaborative responses.”

Increased public involvement is one goal of SCD, which iswell-known for its annual Taste of the Tri-Cities and Spirit ofCommunity Awards. To achieve this objective, Burpee said theorganization wants to identify the main issues and concerns inTri-Cities neighbourhoods.

“What is something that’s going to be on the community’sfront page three years from now? That’s what SCD should behelping people talk about now … Our goal is to create the dia-logue that gets the community talking about it so that therecan be collaborative responses,” she said.

“Our real purpose is to create the connections and the col-laborations. You do that through dialogues, bringing peopletogether and allowing them to present issues that are of con-cern to them.”

To help SCD identify the top Tri-Cities issues, vote in TheNOW’s online opinion poll at www.thenownews.com. The poll islocated about halfway down the home page.

Wondering what to do with all thoseHalloween candy bar wrappers?

Students in Dr. Charles Best Secondary’senvironmental club are collecting them for afundraising initiative.

They are sending clean candy bar, cookieand cracker wrappers to a company calledTerracycle, which reuses non-recyclablematerials to make products like tote bags, pen-cil cases and bottle caddies.

For every wrapper the school sends toTerracycle, the company will give them twocents. The environmental club will collect thefunds with two goals in mind. First they hopeto buy two composters for green waste fromthe school’s foods classes and cafeteria. Thenthey hope to eventually get a greenhouse atthe school to grow food, which will then bedonated to the food bank.

“We have a vision,” said teacher sponsorJulia Hamilton. “In my parents’ generation,everybody had a garden and people mostlygrew their own foods. There is still a move-ment but nowadays, at least in our school,there aren’t a lot of kids who actually know

how to grow anything. It seems like it’s lost.We need to change that.

“This is an opportunity to get the kidsinvolved — to get a sense of whatit is to recycle and how things aremade and how things are grown.These things are interdependent.”

The environmental club is alsocollecting old cellphones, smartphones, PDAs, pagers and their bat-teries. The students are trying tocollect as many old phones as pos-sible to win a contest for secondaryand post-secondary schools thatruns until Nov. 30.

Donations of old cellphones and chocolatebar wrappers can be dropped off in boxes out-side the school office, located at 2525 ComoLake Ave. in Coquitlam.

UBC event benefits local groupAn event at UBC today (Friday) will help

raise money for HIV and AIDS charities,including Coquitlam-based Meaningful

Volunteer.Meaningful Volunteer operates a program in

Uganda called RYE School, which serves manymothers and children with HIVor AIDS. The local non-profit willuse money from the fundraisertowards building a solar-poweredschool in the village of Buyaya inEastern Uganda. About 40 per centof Buyaya residents are HIV posi-tive, and AIDS accounts for a quar-ter of all deaths in the village. Aswell, most children under age ninecannot read a single letter.

Meaningful Volunteer’s RYEschool will teach English literacy and com-puter literacy to children and adults.

The fundraiser, called Rubber Soul, will take

place at UBC on Friday, Nov. 26 from 9 a.m. to1 p.m. The evening will include live perform-ances from eight bands at The Pit and TheGallery.

Tickets cost $12 in advance at The Outpostat UBC Point Grey campus or $15 at the door.

three months. After Acupuncture treatment, he is free of pain.2. Mrs. Yong is 52 years-old and complained of headaches and hearing sounds inside her head. She also complained she had ringing in

her ears and had difficulties hearing. She came for help and after two sessions plus some TCM medicine, she can now hear normally.3. Scott is 23 years-old and a senior at SFU. He coughed continually for 3 years but stopped completely after just 3 treatments.

He is now strong and coughs no more.

Daddy A is irate.The B Family feels terrible, and isabout to offer to pay for completedetailing/cleaning services, etc., when theylearn that Daddy A — while cleaning up teen-

ager B’s vomit — proceeded to vomit in theEscalade himself. We are Family C,attempting to remain neutral. Butwe secretly think Daddy A is kind ofa jerk. Any suggestions, other thanDramamine?

poor kid for having motionsickness doesn’t help his case.But he still deserves to havehis car cleaned by Family B.

TOM: Right. Daddy A’s lossof lunch was directly precipi-tated by Teenager B’s blowingof chunks.

RAY: This kind of chainreaction happens all the time.See: Chartered Fishing Trips.

TOM: But it’s fair to saythat Daddy A would not havepassed a gale-force burb in hiscar had Teenager B not shout-

ed at his or her shoes first.RAY: Right. So, since

Teenager B was responsiblefor both his or her own cookieyodel AND Daddy A’s jazzingup of the carpet, then FamilyB is indeed responsible forhaving the Escalade cleanedand detailed. And they shouldoffer to have it done immedi-ately, before anyone else ridesin the car and goes for thesecond chew.

Food

The food guide published by theGovernment of Canada recommends thatwe, as adults, should be eating an average

of seven to 10 servings of fruit and vegetablesevery day. Children and teens should be eatingfour to eight servings, depending on their age.

This is an ongoing challenge for somepeople, so I have gathered some helpful ways tofulfill your intake requirements forhealthy eating.

Canada’s Food Guide (avail-able at http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide-aliment/index-eng.php or by calling 1-866-225-0709)describes a single serving of fruitor vegetables as one-half cup offresh, frozen or canned fruit orvegetables, or one-half cup of 100-per-cent juice. Alternatively, onecup of raw leafy vegetables or saladcounts as a single serving, as does a singlepiece of fruit.

The first and most important direction tolead you in is to ensure that you are buyingfruit and vegetables in the first place. Chancesare if you don’t have them available at yourfingertips, you will miss many opportunities tointroduce them into your diet — out of sight,out of mind. One helpful tip is to buy the rec-ommended serving amounts for each memberof your family for the number of days you areshopping for. For example, if you are a familyof four and shopping to get you through thenext three days, you would need to buy a totalof 84 servings of fruit and vegetables com-bined, based on an average of seven servingseach. Purchase these before proceeding to theother departments and aisles and build yourmeals based on these produce selections.

An easy way to incorporate fresh spinachwith every meal is to serve every piece ofchicken or fish on a bed of sautéed spinach

leaves. Simply heat a pan over medium heatwith a very small amount of olive oil, add alarge handful of clean, fresh spinach leaves andseason with salt and pepper. They will cook andwilt very quickly as you toss with tongs. Plateand serve immediately.

If sandwiches are a meal item that you haveregularly, then make sure you always have

fresh lettuce, tomato and onionson hand. A Mediterranean flair canalso be added to your sandwichesby including roasted bell peppersor a spread of roasted garlic.

Fruit can become an easilyaccessible snack item by alwayshaving containers of washed ber-ries and grapes in your refriger-ator. Try not to pre-wash toomuch, however, as they tend todeteriorate faster after washing.

Vegetable skewers on the grill are anotherlow-fat way to get your daily servings.Although barbecuing during the cold weatheris not as popular as in the spring and summermonths, it does continue to offer low-fat cook-ing if you can rearrange your grill to make iteasily accessible.

Even if there is a member of your familywho is somewhat fussy when it comes to eatingfruit and vegetables, the produce departmentsseem to always be expanding in selection ofimported and exotic goods. Buy somethingcompletely new to your family at least onceper month. The Internet and libraries are filledwith an abundance of information on prepar-ing and serving almost any ingredient. Happycooking!

Celebrating yesterday and tomorrow

Attaining perfection isone thing. Staying on top isanother matter altogether.

The Coquitlam Raiders foot-ball side kept its unblemishedrecord intact Sunday, dustingoff the Langley Outlaws 52-22 en route to claiming theVancouver Mainland FootballLeague’s junior bantam title.

The win sets up a provincialsemi-final showdown Sundaybetween the 12-0 Raiders andlast year’s B.C. champs, theVictoria Renegades.

“Over the years, [Langley]has been a nemesis forCoquitlam. We beat thempretty bad earlier this year andwe knew they’d come out firedup to play, and they were,”said Raiders coach DwayneSmartt. “We’ve been luckyall year in that even thoughsome of our scores have beenpretty high, we’ve had somemoments in the games wherewe’ve been able to capitalizeon turning points.”

Last Sunday’s turningpoint came when Coquitlam’sTerrell Sparvier shut down anearly Langley scoring drive,as the cornerback picked offa Langley throw near theRaiders end zone. Tied 8-8 inthe first quarter at that point,Sparvier’s critical interceptionset up a Raider march rightback down the field to upCoquitlam’s lead to 16-8.

From there, the Raiderspiled on the points, rack-ing up a 32-14 halftime leadbefore sealing the 12/13 agegroup championship with easein the second half.

“It’s a case of making sureyou finish the game the wayyou started it,” Smartt said ofhis halftime pep talk. “I toldthem ‘Since we won the firsthalf, you have to win the sec-ond half and then the cham-pionships is yours.’ You can’tlet complacency start to creepin. You’ve got fight for it andyou’ve got hard work for it.”

Sunday’s win was thesecond lopsided victory theRaiders claimed over the

Chris Wilson (far left) and Dan Doyle renew acquaintances, while Mayor Richard Stewart presents Lars Hansen with his Hall of Fame plaque.

An opportunity to reflect, a moment to look for-ward and a chance to honour.

There were a myriad of reasons to celebrateat Tuesday night’s inaugural Coquitlam Sports Hallof Fame induction ceremony, as athletes, coachesand builders spanning three generations cametogether to highlight yesteryear’s accomplishmentswhile looking forward to tomorrow’s dreams.

“It was a wonderful and truly inspiring event. Itreally embraced the whole history of sport and activeliving in Coquitlam,” said Mayor Richard Stewart.“I’ve lived here my whole life and I’ve been involvedin sport for a good part of it, and many of thesepeople that we were recognized were people that Iknew of, or swam with.”

Emceed by Global TV sports personality and PortMoody resident Barry Deley, the evening saw bothHall of Fame and Wall of Fame athletes feted overthe course of the two-hour ceremony.

Broken down into three categories includingathlete, builder and team, the 2010 Hall of Fameclass included: Craig Forrest, Lars Hansen, ChristineLarsen, Kelly Law, Ljiljana Ljubisic, Lui Passaglia,Mike Reelie and Chris Wilson in the athlete category.

“It was a really good evening and it’s nice to beable to do something like that with my kids becauseeverything I did with wrestling I did before they wereborn. They hear about things, but it’s neat fore themto be able to experience it,” said Wilson, a six-timeCanadian national wrestling champion who capturedgold for Canada at the 1994 Commonwealth Games.

The 1966 Centennial Centaurs provincial cham-pionship football team and the 1980 CoquitlamAdanacs senior lacrosse team that won the Nation’sCup got the nod in the team category, while thebuilders section consisted of longtime high schoolsports advocate and coach Dan Doyle, synchronizedswimming coach Susan Kemper, minor baseballvolunteer Gordon Welbourne and lacrosse talismanLes Wingrove.

Celebrated in tandem with Hall of Fame induc-tions, the Wall of Fame propped up those who wentabove and beyond in their chosen sport in 2009. TheWall of Fame inductions included: track and field’sDustin Walsh, disabled athlete; gymnast BrittanyRogers, junior female; figure skating’s Ronald Lam,junior male; basketball/soccer’s Elise Horton, highschool female; basketball/football’s Lemar Durant,high school male; volleyball’s Karlee Diesing, col-lege/university female; hockey’s Bryan Leitch, col-lege/university male; track and field’s Ruky Abdulai,senior female; squash’s Laura Ramsay, master;

baseball manager Wes Taylor, coach; and baseball’sCoquitlam junior All Stars, team.

“It was really exciting to see so many youngpeople from the City of Coquitlam who are accom-plishing such great things,” said Hall of Fame pres-ident Lois McNary.

“I really was just so gratified. You hear often ofall the things that youth could do better, but therewe were, with these young people who are amazingathletes and so dedicated to healthy living and beingthe best they could be.”

For Lam, Tuesday’s recognition was just that —an opportunity to realize that his accomplishmentson the ice aren’t going unnoticed.

“It was an enjoyable evening, and it was nice toknow that your accomplishments are recognized,”said Lam, who was the highest ranked Canadianmale in the 2009 world rankings for junior and sen-ior combined.

“Hearing your name called and shaking handswith the mayor was pretty special.”

The induction ceremony served as the culmina-tion of three years worth of work on the Hall ofFame committee for Wingrove. Having experiencedthe death of his son Trevor in late July, the nightwas filled with bittersweet emotions for the longtime

Last weekend, the Under 12 Metro-Ford Storm defeated a very strong Cliff Avenue Unitedteam by a 4-1 margin, mostly due to the incredible performance of JOSIE POZZOLO. In fact,Josie scored all 4 Metro-Ford goals as she led her team to victory. The first two markerscame off almost identical plays as she finished off crosses into the left corner of theopponents’ net. Josie’s third goal was a result of her perseverance as she converted a goal-mouth scramble past the Cliff Avenue goalkeeper. Her fourth, and final, goal was the resultof her excellent ball skills as she beat several defenders on her way to the Cliff Avenue goaland proceeded to finish the play with a low, hard drive to seal the victory. Not only did Josiescore all 4 goals in her team’s very important victory, but she also worked extremely hard atboth ends of the field as she helped support the Storm defence against the very dangerousCliff Avenue attackers. For her remarkable performance this past weekend, JOSIE POZZOLOhas been named Coquitlam Metro-Ford Player of the Week.

Sparvier sparks win

Adanac luminary.“He was a very big part of my career. I

coached or managed Trevor for probably 25years, so of course I had some thoughts abouthim on my mind as well.”

And while celebrating athletic accomplish-ments was Tuesday’s focal point, the eveningalso served as an opportunity for the Hall ofFame committee members to step back andreflect on the three years worth of prep workthat went into the event.

“I think it went pretty well. We’re prettyhappy with the outcome. It’s one of thosecases where you see things that you could havedone differently or maybe done better in thefuture, but certainly overall, we’re happy,” said

McNary.“I was just glad to see the Hall of Fame final-

ly take form. We’ve all been working on it fora long time. For the most part it went reallywell,” added Wingrove.

“Nothing is ever perfect of course, but Idon’t think there was anything that wentwrong.”

With the first big show now in the books,the Hall of Fame committee members will takeDecember off to examine how Tuesday’s pro-ceedings unfolded, while exploring new oppor-tunities for the Hall in the future.

Come January, the group will reconvene toprepare for next year’s induction class and sub-sequent ceremony. Nomination forms for thatevent will be posted some time within the nextweek at www.coquitlamshof.com.


Outlaws in less than twomonths. The last time the twoteams clashed, the Raidershanded Langley a 70-20spanking.

“A score like 70-20 soundslike you’re really trying to rubit their faces, but we didn’t— everything we ran workedin that game,” Smartt said.“For five weeks, that Langleyteam had been waiting tosee us again and they madesure that they stopped thepass. You can tell that theyhad been practising that forfive weeks, so we just ran the

ball at them all day. And ondefence, we controlled the lineof scrimmage.”

Coquitlam’s backfieldtandem of Michael West andBryan Whittet earned fullmarks for their work on theground in Sunday’s game,while quarterback ConnerMcKee showed the type ofpoise needed for a field gen-eral. On the defensive sideof the ball, Smartt pointedto defensive lineman JerichoMendez, safety Sean Stewartand Sparvier as having par-ticularly strong outings.

“[Sparvier] had a greatgame. He had two intercep-

tions, and his pick in the firstquarter was the turning pointfor us,” Smartt said.

Smartt admits that becausehe hasn’t seen the Renegadesthis year, there is no specificgame plan for his team intaking on the defending B.C.champs. That said, it doesn’treally matter.

“We can’t be concernedabout what they do, we haveto concern ourselves with ourgame plan and what we dowell, and that’s all about bal-ance,” Smartt said.

“With whatever they’redoing, we’ll have to adjust toit.”

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Nov. 28 - Dec. 4★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Aries March 21 - April 19: Intellectual pursuitshave top priority. That includes cultural, far travel,educational, publishing, advertising, religious,philosophical and legal affairs. These might run intoa couple of unexpected glitches or shocks earlyand deep into this week, so time your actions forDec. 4 onward. Government agencies, or your own“background” might be involved. Dive into choresSunday/Monday, so you’ll have more time whenopportunities and exciting emotional prospectsappear (Tuesday/Wednesday). Depths, mysteries,sex, other people’s money Friday/Saturday: you mighthit a mother lode!Taurus April 20-May 20: Life’s mysteries,research, depth psychology, subconscious desires,lust, finances tied to other people (e.g., stocks,marriage finances, inheritances) rise in importance.These might be imperilled this week, especially ifyou began a related venture in November. You mightneed to take quick “crisis action” Thursday/Friday. Or,you could be free of any problems – if so, wait untilSaturday onward to plunge into these areas, and/or tomake a commitment, change your lifestyle, or invest.Work succeeds midweek. Friendships, loves (andeverything listed above) are lucky Friday p.m.!Gemini May21-June20: Excitement! You could takemajor steps in a romance or more mature relationshipnow, or you might face and seize a huge opportunitysuch as relocation, a public appearance, a businessnegotiation/contract. But be aware: you mightsucceed, and the payment is stress. Or it all mightblow up (Sunday-Tuesday a.m. or Thursday/Saturday)especially if this situation began in November. But if itblows up: so what? It clears away six years of tension,liberates you – laugh at life! Midweek’s romantic.Saturday begins, small but growing, the workableopportunities, attractions. Optimism arrives!

Cancer June 21-July 22: Emotionally, a rest periodis over. Now you begin two months of intensified,active, communicating, sweet (and sometimes angry,or more likely, competitive) attraction. But don’t losesight of your main necessity for the next three weeks:work and health. These two – and your dependents,and machinery – face one or two crises or dilemmasthis week (Sunday-Tuesday and Thursday/Friday). Bevery careful with electricity, computers, driving, tools,especially late week. A project might demand precise,tense attention to complete: give this, and succeed.Romance whispers Thursday/Friday!Leo July 23-Aug. 22: What seemed so romanticallyalluring in November might meet unexpected eventsor sexual reactions. Or, speculation and investmentquality conflict; or creative urges, projects mighttrip over the realities that research discovers.Whatever went so brilliantly in November meets theunexpected by Thursday. Leo, whatever happens: 1)be ethical, honest; 2) be alert, realistic. These shouldshow you the right way. Money needs care Sunday/Monday. Communications, travel, life’s easy Tuesday/Wednesday. Home, safety, take no chances Thursday!Friday heals. Saturday, love, success begin.Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: I warned you some weeksago that domestic, property, security and familyprojects (especially those initiated in November)might hit a shock or snag by this week. It could bea crisis, or simply a snag that needs ironing out. Bepatient, diplomatic. Sunday/Monday your energy ishigh, but everyone seems independent, ready for anargument. Thursday/Friday communications, errandsflow swiftly, but an unexpected event could capsizethe apple cart. Drive carefully Friday dawn, avoidunsafe tools, avoid computers. Friday p.m., love/friendship luck! After a hectic week, relax at homeSaturday.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The main emphasis lieson communications, paperwork, errands, travel,siblings and casual friends. These areas face one ortwo challenges this week, especially Sunday/Monday(philosophical or legal differences?) and Thursday/Friday (romantic, creative conflicts?). In everything(communication, travel, etc.) your intention is all tiedup with a partnership urge – but it is this urge that isreally causing unexpected events or disagreements.Somehow, it (the urge to join or merge) is fightingthe work you need to get done. By Friday p.m., theconflict’s over, and money luck flows!Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Unexpected events couldthrow a monkey wrench into your money projects,particularly any projects you began in November,especially Sunday/Monday and Thursday/Friday. DoNOT purchase machinery or high tech items beforeFriday noon. The problem comes from your desire,hidden or not, to seek pleasure, romance, adventureor to take a gamble. You might face a choice: chaseromance, or guard your money, gamble or keep yourbank account, etc. Despite events, you’ll be optimistic,happy Sunday/Monday! Rest, contemplate mid-week.Your energy, charisma soar Thursday/Friday – thiseve’s lucky!Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Watch your temper– you’re riding a wave of energy, charisma, hope,loving emotions and creative, gambling pizzazz – butthis could make you impatient, too, especially withparents/kids, domestic situations, real estate, securityprovisions. These have caused you stress and tensionfor seven years, and you’re at the fed-up stage! Sothere might be one last explosion, especially Sunday/Monday or Thursday/Friday. Listen: be safe, but don’trepress your temper. Have a tantrum, then look forcommon ground. You’ll find it Friday eve, successfullystart to implement it Saturday onward.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Messages, information(or distribution realities) might interfere with aplan that involved government, an institution, or a“retreat.” Protect yourself from gossip. Take carein writing, speech, driving and with electrical tools.The most “accident prone days are Sunday, Mondayand Friday (morning). This is a time of rest, solitude,peace and contemplation – seek an environmentthat promotes these. That said, your social popularitybegins to revive, and you grow more talkative,more interested in wisdom and learning. Completeobligations. Happiness, optimism visit Friday!Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: A conflict between yourhopes and your “available cash” might reach a climaxthis week, especially Sunday/Monday and Thursday/Friday. Well, reality is reality, you gotta work withwhat you have. Once you accept this, you can startachieving, and your hopes will rise. In general, yourpopularity is rising, light romance visits, and yourmoney picture does keep getting better! Bosses, VIPsand parents favour you again, into January – takeadvantage (especially Friday!). Tackle government-related chores now, as a slow-down will commencehere soon. Love, Tuesday/Wednesday, Saturday!Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Relationships needpatience, gentleness early week. A temperamentalboss, parent or VIP could act now, especially Sundayto Tuesday (argument) and Thursday/Friday (suddenaction). Be alert, good-natured, diplomatic – deflectattacks. (A VIP’s motive? Perhaps a suspicion thatyou are money-hungry. Deeper, it’s a power struggle.)Wisdom, gentle love, and a travel, legal or educationalproject return, lasting to early January. These arelucky Friday p.m. Friends begin to appear. Still, yourmain December goal is career, ambition. Secrets,revelations, “major money” Tuesday/Wednesday.
