Just how three-year-old Kienan Hebert was brought back to his British Columbia home undetected in the dark of night may have a deceptively simple answer: the doors were unlocked.

Kienan was returned to his family home in Sparwood, B.C., early Sunday morning nearly a week after he disappeared from the very same two-storey house.

The house was unoccupied at the time, with Kienan’s large family staying a few doors down, and just hours earlier, the boy’s father made an emotional plea for whoever had his son to leave him in a safe location.

The sudden turn of events raised immediate questions about how a kidnapper could enter the home undetected for a second time, but Kienan’s father Paul offered the explanation yesterday.

“We left the doors unlocked on purpose,” Paul Hebert, sounding exhausted but relieved, said in an interview.

“We asked him to bring him back to a safe place, and he brought him back to our house.”

Hebert declined to say whether he left the doors unlocked on the advice of police.

The sole suspect in Kienan’s disappearance remains convicted sex offender Randall Hopley, 46, who was still at large. Police and the Heberts have publicly urged Hopley to turn himself in.

Kienan hadn’t been seen since last Tuesday, when his parents put him to bed for the night. By Wednesday morning, he was gone, prompting a massive search of the surrounding area.

Hebert said yesterday that his son – one of eight children – was coping with the ordeal and appeared to be OK. “Other than the personal invasion, being taken away in the middle of the night, nothing,” Hebert said when asked whether his son was harmed.

TOM FLETCHER (Black Press)

NDP leader Adrian Dix visited a college campus yesterday to call on the B.C. government to reinstate the student grant program it cancelled in 2004.

B.C. was spending $80 million a year on grants to top up the federal-provincial student loan program, and an NDP government would reinstate a minimum tax on financial institutions to fund $100 million worth of grants per year, Dix said.

Flanked by Camosun College students and local MLAs, Dix acknowledged that his announcement was to have formed part of an election campaign prepared for this fall.

With the next B.C. election now put off to May 2013, Dix encouraged Premier Christy Clark to adopt his policy now to relieve debt that he said now averages $27,000 for B.C. post-secondary grads.

Dix made a similar promise when running for leadership of the B.C. NDP this spring. Monday he had few other details, which he said would have to be worked out with post-secondary institutions based on previous grant programs.

“My own view is that being 10th in Canada in student grants, doubling tuition fees, and having

the highest debt loads for students is not the direction we need to be going when we’re asking young people and needing young people to get access to the very education they need to fill the jobs of the future,” Dix said.

Camosun College faculty association president Bronwen Welch joined Dix for the announcement.

She said she sees students who can’t afford a $100 textbook for her

English literature classes and still make their rent, because of tuition and other costs.

“What I don’t understand is at this point, why are people not rioting in the streets?” Welch said.

“This is an investment in our future, this is not a cost.”

The B.C. Liberals say average tuition paid in B.C. last year was $4,802, fourth lowest in Canada, and average student debt is third lowest.

DIX CALLS FOR RETURN OF STUDENT GRANTS

SOCKEYE SALMON NUMBERS LOOKING GOOD JEFF NAGEL (Black Press)

An estimated 4.5 million sockeye salmon are returning to the Fraser River system this summer and the run size has fishery managers cautiously optimistic about the survival of the iconic fish. Granted, it’s a tiny fraction of the record 30 million sockeye that returned last year.

But sockeye run on a four-year cycle, so managers aren’t comparing this run against last year – which was the high end of the cycle and was further amplified by mysteriously favourable ocean conditions.

SUSPECTED DRUNK DRIVER HITS POLICE CRUISER SOUTH DELTA LEADER (Black Press)

A suspected 50-year-old drunk female driver struck a police car in Ladner on Sunday causing an estimated $10,000 in damage. According to Delta Police, the on-duty officer was hit while making a left turn in his unmarked police car. As the officer began to turn, his car was struck by a 2005 Kia. An investigation revealed the driver of the Kia was impaired by alcohol. She refused a demand to take a breathalyzer test and was arrested for impaired driving and refusal.

MAN DIES IN WEEKEND MOTORCYCLE CRASH NANAIMO NEWS BULLETIN (Black Press)

A Nanaimo man has died following a motorcycle crash on the weekend. Police said Thomas Lee Evans, 38, was driving a 1983 Montesa motorcycle on Laguna Way near Universal Place Saturday when the crash occurred. Residents told police they heard the bike turning onto Universal Way and then a loud scraping sound at about 7:15 p.m., but the accident was not discovered until 7:30 p.m. when a couple out for a drive happened upon the scene. Evans was rushed to hospital, but died of his injuries on Sunday.

BLAZE CONSUMES OLIVER HIGH SCHOOL KRISTI PATTON (Penticton Western News)

Oliver RCMP are now in charge of investigating a fire that destroyed most of South Okanagan Secondary School yesterday.

“We are involved at this time but it is way too early to tell what exactly happened,” said Cpl. Jason Bayda.

“We handle all fires in this area until they are deemed not arson.”

Firefighters were called to a blaze around 2 a.m.

Monday morning that is believed to have started in or near the older part of the school.

“We are in a mop up stage right now,” said Oliver fire chief Dan Skaros, at 9 a.m. “Most of the flames are knocked down and we lost most of the old school.

We did save the new gym, the northwest gym and

most of the new cafeteria. Most of the new construction was saved but the library is gone. We think it started in the old east wing on the school.”

Almost $30 million of provincial funding was given to the school district for renovations along with the construction of an addition. The renovations included 14 new classrooms, special education and counselling rooms, food and textile labs, a graphic arts room, a science lab, an art room as well as a new general office, washrooms and a multi-purpose room.

“We are just making sense of it all. It’s pretty devastating,” said School District 53 superintendant Bev Young. “We are looking at coming up with a plan to relocate students and seeing what parts of the school might be accessible down the road.”

The proposed revenue increases would raise an extra $700 million over 10 years.

Quebec’s proposed crackdown on the flourishing online ticket resale business would only drive customers to the black market or outside the province, opponents warned Monday. The Quebec government has tabled a bill that would make it illegal to sell sports and entertainment tickets at a higher price than the one authorized by the original vendor. The bill is aimed at Quebec-run sites that resell tickets and draw a commission from the buyer and seller. Outdoor scalpers would not be affected.

NUNAVUT OUTLINES PLAN FOR SUICIDE PREVENTION IQALUIT, Nunavut (Canadian Press)

The government of Nunavut is hoping that better-trained teachers and more mental-health facilities will bring down suicide rates that are the highest in Canada.

The measures are part of a plan on suicide prevention released in Iqaluit. The territory hopes that better communication between mental health workers and teachers will catch at-risk students. The suicide rate for Inuit youth is 11 times the national average and Nunavut has had 23 self-inflicted deaths so far this year.

CARIBOU PLAN POINTS TO MASSIVE WOLF CULL Environmental researchers say thousands of wolves stand to be killed in Alberta as part of the federal government’s new plan to sustain caribou in the oilsands area. It’s a calculation that Environment Minister Peter Kent doesn’t contest, even though he says he wishes he could. Last month, he released a draft recovery plan for woodland caribou, since the population in Alberta is at particular risk. Until their habitat can be restored, Kent says the main solutions for caribou are to control their predators, or to fence them in.

This means the two men, identified by the pseudonyms John and Bill, can be listed on the birth certificate as father and other parent.

POST FUKUSHIMA WAYWARD PENGUIN DEATH TOLL IN SAFETY PLAN IRKS ‘HAPPY FEET’ SYRIA UNREST MISSING IN ACTION HITS 2,600: UN IAEA MEMBERS

A post-Fukushima nuclear safety plan is putting the U.S. on the same side with Russia and China and at odds with Western nations that are usually its allies. Ruediger Luedking, Germany’s chief IAEA representative, told the nuclear watchdog’s 35-nation board yesterday that the plan “does not fully meet our expectations.”

He says Russia, China, India, Pakistan and Argentina were chief opponents of giving the IAEA more authority to police nuclear safety. But the U.S. was also conformable with the lack of enforcement powers.

The wayward penguin known as “Happy Feet” is missing in the Southern Ocean.

Experts said that the most likely scenario is that the emperor penguin’s satellite transmitter fell off. The unit was attached to his feathers with super glue and was designed to fall off when he molted early next year. But the unit stopped transmitting Friday, just five days after the penguin was released into the ocean. Happy Feet was discovered on a New Zealand beach in June. After he was released, the penguin swam in a meandering route about 120 km southeast, in a pattern that experts say is typical for a penguin chasing fish.

At least 2,600 people have died in the six months of unrest that has swept Syria, the UN’s top human rights official said yesterday, as a panel was named to investigate abuses in the Arab country.

The figure released by UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay adds to evidence that Syrian leader Bashar Assad is continuing his crackdown on dissidents despite international pressure.

“According to reliable sources on the ground, the number of those killed since the onset of the unrest in mid-March 2011 in that country has now reached at least 2,600,” Pillay said.

Four men arrested on terror suspicions over the weekend in Sweden’s secondlargest city were identified in court documents yesterday as local residents in their 20s and originally from Somalia and Iraq. Police detained the men – three of whom are Swedish citizens – in a sting in the west coast city of Goteborg on Sept. 10, and a prosecutor said they were being interrogated on suspicions of preparing a terrorist act. About 400 people were evacuated from an arts centre in connection with the arrests, but police haven’t said whether the building was the target of the alleged plot.

Authorities says four men have been charged with slavery offences for holding a group of men in squalid conditions at a caravan site north of London.

Prosecutors said the men, who were all from the same family, were charged yesterday with conspiracy to hold others in servitude and requiring them to perform forced labour. Police found 24 men, mostly of English and eastern European backgrounds, in poor health and in cramped and dirty conditions at the site. Officers said they believed some of the men had been working in a state of “virtual slavery” for up to 15 years.

NUCLEAR WASTE SITE BLAST KILLS 1 PARIS (Associated Press)

A nuclear waste site in southern France had an explosion yesterday that killed one person, seriously burned another and slightly injured three others, France’s nuclear safety body said.

The Nuclear Safety Authority said no radioactive leaks have been detected in the blast at 12:37 p.m. local time at an oven in the Centraco nuclear site.

The accident was under control within the hour, the agency said in a statement.

Centraco is located on the grounds of another nuclear site, Marcoule, in the Languedoc-Roussillon region near the Mediterranean Sea. “According to initial information, the explosion happened in an oven used to melt radioactive metallic waste of little and very little “The explosion radioactivity,” the statehappened in an ment said. “There have oven used to been no leaks outside of the melt radioactive site.” metallic waste of Those injured were not little and very little contaminated with radiaradioactivity.” tion, and the outside of the – French Nuclear building that houses the Safety Authority oven showed no sign of damstatement age or contamination either, the agency said in a separate statement.

Officials from France’s EDF power company, whose subsidiary operates Centraco, stressed that there was no nuclear reactor on the site and that no waste treated at the site of the explosion came from a reactor. Spokeswoman Carole Trivi said a fire broke out after the explosion, but it has since been brought under control.

The cause of the blast was not immediately known, and an investigation has been opened, Trivi said.

The material at Centraco comes from nuclear sites

and therefore is mildly radioactive, spokeswoman Carole Trivi said. She said the site treats mostly waste from EDF’s own power plants, as well as a small amount of material from hospitals or medical research labs.

Nothing comes from weapons manufacturing, she said.

Centraco is located on the 300-hectare Marcoule site, which also houses a research centre and four industrial sites, including one that makes Mox, a fuel made from plutonium and uranium.

France is the world’s most nuclear-dependent nation, with the lion’s share of its electricity coming from the 58 nuclear reactors that dot the country.

ASSOCIATED PRESS

TRIPOLI, Libya (Associated Press)

Fugitive leader Moammar Gadhafi accused revolutionary forces of surrendering Libya to foreign influence and vowed to press ahead with his resistance in a message yesterday issued just hours after a twin attack on a key oil facility by loyalist fighters. At least 15 attackers were killed, an anti-Gadhafi commander said.

“We will not be ruled after we were the masters,” said the brief statement attributed to Gadhafi that was read on Syria’s Al-Rai TV by its owner Mishan al-Jabouri, a former Iraqi lawmaker and Gadhafi supporter.

The message described the opposition forces as “traitors” who are willing to turn over Libya’s oil riches to foreign interests.

The firebrand words by Gadhafi contrast sharply with the staggering losses for his regime in recent weeks, including being driven from the capital Tripoli and left with only a handful of strongholds that are surrounded by former rebel forces.

At the important oil terminal at Ras Lanuf, suspected loyalist staged back-toback attacks that began with saboteurs setting fires and then shifted to a convoy of gunmen riding in from the desert.

Col. Hamid al-Hasi, the commander for anti-Gadhafi forces in eastern Libya, said a group of 15 employees set fire to the facility, located on the Mediterranean coast about 615 kilometres southeast of Tripoli.

He said five of the saboteurs were killed and the rest arrested.

for a Personalized Song Collection from Name Your Tune

($20 Value)

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (AP)

The black man who leads the youth wing of South Africa’s governing party has no right to sing a song some whites find offensive, a judge said yesterday.

Judge Collin Lamont went further than AfriForum, the white rights group that brought the hate-speech lawsuit, had demanded by saying that all South Africans, not only Julius Malema, should refrain from singing Shoot the Boer. Under the ruling, criminal cases can now be brought against those who sing the song or quote its lyrics.

In a ruling broadcast live on national TV, the judge said that while such anthems had their place during apartheid, they constitute hate speech in a society now struggling to redefine relations between the races. The court case is separate from Malema’s ongoing African National Congress disciplinary hearings.

While Monday’s judgment could be seen as a setback for the embattled Malema, the lightning-rod figure might use it to rally support from South Africans who see Shoot the Boer as part of the heritage of the antiapartheid movement. “Boer” means farmer in the language of South Africa’s Dutch descendants known as Afrikaners, and is broadly used to refer to whites in general and Afrikaners in particular.

BATTLE OF THE BLADES PLANS BELAK TRIBUTE FOR SEASON PREMIERE

TORONTO (Canadian Press)

The third season of CBC’s Battle of the Blades will kick off this weekend with a tribute to Wade Belak, the public broadcaster said yesterday.

An hour-long episode, which features the recently retired NHL enforcer as he prepares for the televised reality show, will air on Sunday, a week before live competition is set to begin.

The popular show, which is entering its third season, challenges professional hockey players to don figure skates, team up with a partner and master pairs skating in an effort to win $100,000 for charity.

Belak, who was set to team up with ice dancer Kim Navarro, was found dead in a downtown Toronto hotel and condo building late last month in what police described as an apparent suicide.

The tribute episode, titled Game On, will show footage of all the hockey players preparing for the competition, and pay particular tribute to Belak’s “enthusiasm and humour,” the broadcaster said.

CBC said it is hoping to find a replacement for Belak to compete alongside Navarro. Other competitors include NHL players Bryan Berard and Brad May.

FOCUS ON MY MOVIE, NOT ME, MADONNA SAYS

Music | Amy Winehouse’s final recording before her July death, a duet with Tony Bennett, will be released tomorrow, on what would have been her 28th birthday.

SPONGEBOB IS BAD FOR SMALL CHILDREN: STUDY CHICAGO (Associated Press)

TORONTO (Canadian Press)

Madonna says she welcomes criticism of her new film, W.E. – as long as reviewers are judging the movie on its own merits.

“I can tell when people are reviewing my film and when they’re reviewing me personally,” the pop star told a packed press conference at the Toronto International Film Festival yesterday.

“I welcome criticisms of my film when it’s viewed as an artistic form, and not when people are mentioning things about my personal life, or my achievements in any other field, because they’re irrelevant to the film.”

Early reviews of the ambitious film have been decidedly mixed, with one scathing notice from the U.K.’s Guardian summing it up as “an extraordinarily silly, preening, fatally mishandled film” in a one-star takedown.

W.E. jumps back and forth through time to tell two stories: Andrea Riseborough plays Wallis Simpson, the controversial American whose romance with Edward VIII ultimately led to his abdication of the throne, while Australian actress Abbie Cornish portrays a downcast modern woman who is obsessed with her.

The cartoon character SpongeBob SquarePants is in hot water from a study suggesting that watching just nine minutes of that program can cause short-term attention and learning problems in fouryear-olds.

The problems were seen in a study of 60 children randomly assigned to either watch SpongeBob, or the slower-paced PBS cartoon Caillou or assigned to draw pictures. Immediately after these nine-minute assignments, the kids took mental function tests; those who had watched SpongeBob did measurably worse than the others.

Previous research has linked TV-watching with long-term attention problems in children, but the new study suggests more immediate problems can occur after very little exposure – results that parents of young kids should be alert to, the study authors said.

The results should be interpreted cautiously because of the study’s small size, but the data seem robust and bolster the idea

that media exposure is a public health issue, said Dr. Dimitri Christakis. He is a child development specialist at Seattle Children’s Hospital who wrote an

‘TOONS

A new study suggests watching just nine minutes of SpongeBob Squarepants can lead to shorter attention spans in 4-year-olds.

editorial accompanying the study published online yesterday in the journal Pediatrics.

Christakis said parents need to realize that fast-paced programming may not be appropriate for very young children. “What kids watch matters, it’s not just how much they watch,” he said.

University of Virginia psychology professor Angeline Lillard, the lead author, said Nickelodeon’s SpongeBob shouldn’t be singled out. She found similar problems in kids who watched other fast-paced cartoon programming.

She said parents should realize that young children are compromised in their ability to learn and use self-control immediately after watching such shows. “I wouldn’t advise watching such shows on the way to school or any time they’re expected to pay attention and learn,” she said.

Nickelodeon spokesman David Bittler disputed the findings and said SpongeBob SquarePants is aimed at kids aged 6-11, not 4-yearolds.

Lillard said 4-year-olds were chosen because that age “is the heart of the period during which you see the most development” in certain self-control abilities. Whether children of other ages would be similarly affected can’t be determined from this study.

MONTREAL (Canadian Press)

Specialty media company Astral Media says foreign Internet competitors like Netix should be subject to the same rules as Canadian broadcast providers.

In a speech yesterday, Astral chief executive Ian Greenberg called it “unfair competition.�

Astral and most other Canadian broadcasters have pressed the federal broadcast regulator for stiffer rules on Netix operations in Canada so all movie providers face a level playing ďŹ eld – no matter whether they broadcast over the airwaves, on cable or via the Internet. “The reality that currently exists with foreign Internet broadcasting competitors who reap the beneďŹ ts and revenues of doing business in this country, yet are not subject to the same rules of engagement as Canadian companies,â€?

Greenberg said in prepared remarks distributed before a business luncheon speech yesterday.

LEVEL PLAYING FIELD URGED

The CRTC and the government need to ensure there is a level playing ďŹ eld for all, he said.

Astral has long-term deals in place with most U.S. movie studios, giving it exclusive content to help counter competition from Internet movie provider Netix.

Astral also has lengthy deals with U.S. cable channels HBO and Showtime for exclusive programming to broadcast on its pay TV services such as The Movie Network.

Netix is competing for licensing rights with TV networks and pay TV services for content. It had 23.6 million subscribers in the U.S. and Canada at the end of March, double the amount from the same period two years ago.

Astral is part of a 40-member group from the telecom, broadcasting, cable and satellite and production sectors, along with unions, that has asked the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to initiate public consultations on the matter.

SHAW’S BIG WI-FI NETWORK COMING TO CANADA’S WEST CALGARY (Canadian Press)

Shaw and Cisco have struck a deal to set up an extensive and advanced Wi-Fi network in Western Canada to provide broadband wireless services.

In a joint release, Shaw and Cisco said yesterday the nextgeneration network will allow Shaw customers to connect Wi-Fi enabled devices such as tablets, smartphones and computers to thousands of access points across Western Canada.

Financial terms of the deal were not revealed. “Canadians’ use of smartphones and tablet devices has grown exponentially over the years and more than ever, consumers are relying on Wi-Fi to explore the Internet, connect with loved ones and enjoy entertainment,� Shaw president Peter Bissonnette said in a release.

The new Shaw Wi-Fi network is set to begin operating in late 2011, with a consumer launch next spring.

RBC SLICES CANADA’S ECONOMIC FORECAST MONTREAL (Canadian Press)

Canada’s economic growth will slow to 2.4 per cent this year, RBC Economics said yesterday, marking a 0.8 percentage point downgrade from its June forecast.

The bank reduced its forecast for the Canadian economy after a “mild contraction� in the second quarter.

Chief economist Craig Wright said ďŹ nancial market volatility took a toll on business and consumer conďŹ dence this summer. However, he expects the global economy will avert another downturn despite the slide of late in the equity markets and in commodity prices.

Wright said that RBC is “cautiously optimistic� that Canada’s economy will grow by 2.5 per cent next year, matching the bank’s forecast for the United States.

TODAY’S BEST ATHLETES… ASSOCIATED PRESS

New England quarterback Tom Brady throws during the first half against the Dolphins last night in Miami.

BRADY THROWS 517 YARDS TO LEAD PATS PAST DOLPHINS

MIAMI (Associated Press)

Tom Brady threw his first interception since October, so he wasn’t perfect in the New England Patriots’ opener. He was close, though.

Brady threw for a team-record 517 yards and four touchdowns, including a 99-yarder to Wes Welker, and the reigning AFC East champions started with a victory for the eighth consecutive season last night by beating the Miami Dolphins 38-24.

Defensive end Jared Odrick picked off a deflected pass to set up a Miami touchdown and end Brady’s NFL-record streak of 358 passes without an interception. Otherwise Brady and the Patriots picked up where they left off last season, when he threw for 36 TDs and his team led the league in scoring.

New England totalled 622 yards, the most in franchise history and the most allowed by Miami.

Brady’s performance overshadowed Miami’s Chad Henne, who threw for a career-high 416 yards. The 906 net yards passing by both teams was an NFL record.

Brady, who went 32 for 48, became the 11th quarterback to throw for at least 500 yards. Norm Van Brocklin set the record of 554 yards in 1951.

“We’re pleased to have him on our side,” teammate Danny Woodhead said with a smile.

The capper came with 5:44 left and the Patriots leading 31-17. After they stopped Miami on downs at the one-foot line, Brady lined up in the shotgun on first down and threw from his end zone to Welker, who had slipped behind Benny Sapp near the 30-yard line.

Welker caught the pass in stride and sprinted untouched for the score to complete the longest play in Patriots history.

“Some of their scores ended up looking like it was kind of easy,” Miami coach Tony Sparano said. “Not the defensive performance we were hoping for. That’s an understatement.”

Brady also threw touchdown passes on consecutive plays. He hit Aaron Hernandez for a 31-yard score, and when a replay review determined the receiver was down at the one, Brady threw to him again for a TD on the next play.

His other scoring passes covered 10 yards to Rob Gronkowski and two yards to Welker.

Newcomer Chad Ochocino had only one catch for 14 yards. But Welker made eight receptions for 160 yards, and tight ends Hernandez and Gronkowski combined for 189 yards on 13 catches.

“It wasn’t a one-man band out there,” coach Bill Belichick said. “We had a lot of contributions.”

PATRIOTS WIN 38-24

LOKOMOTIV PULLS OUT OF TOP LEAGUE MOSCOW (Associated Press)

The hockey team wiped out by a plane crash last week will not take part in this year’s Kontinental Hockey League season, Russian sports minister Vitaly Mutko said yesterday.

Mutko said that Lokomotiv Yaroslavl would be demoted to a lower league as part of a gradual rebuilding program, in line with the team management’s wishes.

“At a meeting with the president, we arrived at the conclusion that we must support those decisions taken by the club,” Mutko said after a high-level discussion on plans for Lokomotiv chaired by Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.

Lokomotiv president Yury Yakovlyev said the team might begin playing in December in the Major Hockey League, which is the second tier of Russian hockey.

By way of a concession, Lokomotiv will be automatically eligible to compete in next year’s playoffs, regardless of where it places in the MHL. The crash Wednesday of a chartered Yak-42 jet outside the western city of Yaroslavl took the lives of 28 players, two coaches and seven other Lokomotiv staff. Alexander Galimov, the only member of the team to initially survive the crash in which a total of 44 people were killed, died yesterday of his injuries in a Moscow hospital.

Top hockey officials had earlier expressed hopes Lokomotiv could be revived in time to take part in the current season, which began yesterday, by drafting in players from other KHL teams. Those plans appear to have been shelved in favour of more long-term reconstruction plans.

LIONS KICKER ENJOYS BIG STREAK SURREY (Canadian Press)

The most consistent member of the B.C. Lions this season is also the oldest player in the CFL. Placekicker Paul McCallum has been Mr. Automatic during a year where the Lions have sometimes struggled to find the right gear.

The 41-year-old, who grew up only blocks away from the team’s training facility in Surrey, has kicked 21 straight field goals this season. He is getting close to Dave Ridgway’s record of 28 in a row, but McCallum has a bigger goal in mind.

“It would mean something to me if I finished the rest of the year and didn’t miss at all,” McCallum said yesterday after the Lions had a brief run-down.

“It means I have some more to go. I will take it one field goal at a time. We’ll see what happens at the end of the season.”

McCallum went four-for-four in the Lions 28-6 win over the Toronto Argonauts Saturday. The 19-year veteran has made 27 of 29 field goals this season.

He missed a 47-yard attempt in the opening game against Montreal, then was wide and about a yard short on a 57-yard try on the last play of a 34-32 loss to Calgary the following week.

Since then McCallum has been perfect. His consistency is one reason why the Lions have won four of their last five games and moved into third spot in the West with a 4-6 record.

NBA LOCKOUT REACHES PIVOTAL STRETCH TODAY NEW YORK (Associated Press)

A pivotal stretch in the NBA lockout begins today, when full bargaining committees return to the table.

That could move players and owners closer to a new labour deal, but it also could send things in the wrong direction with time running down if more voices in the room leads to discord.

Any setback now would diminish hopes of the pre-season opening without delay.

“The reality is our training camp would be scheduled to start on Oct. 3rd I believe, and so if there’s any intention of trying to get that started on time, then we both have to figure some things out very quickly,” players’ association president Derek Fisher of the Lakers said last week. “That’s just the reality of the situation.”

The process toward getting a new collective bargaining agreement seems to have gotten back on track after three meetings in the past two weeks between top negotiators from each side.

They decided their full committees have to return before they can go any further, so the owners’ labour relations committee and the union’s

11

executive committee were told to come to New York for a session today, and perhaps even tomorrow.

On Thursday, both sides will report back to their memberships, with owners meeting in Dallas and players headed to Las Vegas, where more than 40 are taking part this week in a series of games at the Impact Basketball academy.

Large groups from each side haven’t met since late June, when players expressed frustration that owners were still sticking to points from their original proposal from back in January 2010. That included changes to the current salary cap system along with pay cuts and shorter contracts for the players.

TRIAL BEGINS FOR MAN CHARGED IN HIT-AND-RUN DEATH

DAN FERGUSON (Langley Times)

DAN FERGUSON/BLACK PRESS

Brent Parent and an unidentified female companion arrive for the start of his road rage trial yesterday.

Brent Parent said nothing as the charges against him were read out by a court clerk yesterday in a B.C. Supreme Court chamber in New Westminster.

As each count, his lawyer spoke for him, saying “Mr. Parent pleads not guilty.”

There were five road rage-related charges against the Langley man.

They include criminal negligence causing the death of 21-year-old Silas O’Brien of Abbotsford on March 13, 2008 in Langley, dangerous operation of a motor vehicle and

leaving the scene of the accident.

More than a dozen family and friends of O’Brien showed up for the first day of court, forcing court administrators to change courtrooms to find one big enough to accommodate everyone.

In her opening statement, Crown Prosecutor Donna Ballyk said the evidence will show that immediately after Parent ran O’Brien down, he went home and sat in his hot tub having beer with his brother and talking so loudly that they disturbed a neighbour.

The next day, police arrested Parent and his brother as they were leaving the property.

Ballyk said the evidence will show that O’Brien and two friends were in a Chevy Silverado heading to the airport and a flight to Hawaii when they made contact with a Ford F250 truck driven by Parent, whose brother was riding with him.

The Silverado was hit by a glancing blow on the passenger side, while the Ford suffered a scrape on the driver’s side.

After that, Ballyk said, Parent ran the Ford off the road into a ditch, then returned and ran O’Brien down.

At the time, Parent was 38.

The first witness called by the prosecution was a former New Westminster Police officer who was a member of the regional Integrated Homicide Investigation Team (IHIT) assigned to the case.

At press deadline, Natasha Purba was testifying about the paint scrapings that show the Parent and O’Brien vehicles made physical contact.

She also took the judge through the initial IHIT photographs of the crime scene that included images of the blood stain left where O’Brien hit the pavement.

According to the prosecution, as O’Brien and his friends, Sam Dooley andLuke Stevens, also 21, were driving to the airport around 2 a.m. to make their flight.

They came upon a white Ford F250 driven

by Parent with a sled carrier for snowmobiles and other recreational vehicles on the back.

The Ford was stopped in the the road in the 25800 block of 16 Avenue.

When the Silverado went to drive around it, the Ford began moving, which is when the two vehicles made contact.

The Ford circled back and ran the Silverado off the road, causing it to flip into a ditch.

The three occupants were standing on the side of the road surveying the damage when the F250 returned.

Dooley and Stevens jumped out of the way but O’Brien was hit.

He died at the scene.

O’Brien left behind six siblings, parents, and many friends.

He also had a girlfriend Megan Williamson, a competitive figure skater with the Langley Skating Club.

The trial has been scheduled to last for 10 days before B.C. Supreme Court justice Terence A. Schultes.

The Crown lawyer is expected to wrap up the prosecution case by the end of the week.

Then it will be the turn of defence lawyer Vincent Michaels.

Parent faces a possible sentence of life in prison if convicted.

World.

ANKARA, Turkey (Associated Press)

Turkey’s prime minister said yesterday that Israel’s raid on a Gaza-bound aid flotilla last year was “cause for war” but added that his country showed “patience” and refrained from taking any action.

Erdogan told Al-Jazeera television in a recent interview that the Israeli raid, which killed eight Turks and a Turkish American on board a Turkish ship trying to break Israel’s naval blockade of Gaza, occurred in international waters and was “unlawful.” His comments were carried by Turkey’s state-run Anatolia news agency late Sunday.

“It is a cause for war, but we decided to act in line with Turkey’s grandeur and showed patience,” Erdogan said.

An Israeli government spokesman was not immediately available for comment, but Israel insists its naval commandos acted in self-defence after being attacked by some of the activists.

A UN report into the raid, released earlier this month, said Israel’s naval blockade was legitimate but accused Israel of using “excessive and unreasonable” force in the raid.

Turkey has been angered over Israel’s refusal to apologize for the raid.

it under a less explicit headline: “Top Tory, coke and the hooker”.

In an unsigned editorial published alongside the story, the News of the World said that Osborne “has now owned up to his encounters with a cocaine-snorting call-girl. And robustly condemns drugs for the destruction they wreak.”

“They stole the story and then they didn’t even tell it as it should have been told,” Rowe said, according to a transcript of the interview. “They completely diluted it and made it look like I was not to be trusted ... and all for George Osborne.”

DOMINATRIX’S STORY PUTS U.K. FINANCE MINISTER IN SPOTLIGHT LONDON (Associated Press)

ISRAEL’S FLOTILLA RAID WAS ‘CAUSE FOR WAR’: TURKISH PM

two weeks ago heightened speculation about the health of the diabetic leader.

A dominatrix’s sensational story of sex, cocaine, and tabloid wrongdoing has revived questions over the relationship between Rupert Murdoch’s scandal-hungry News of the World and Britain’s Treasury chief, George Osborne.

Former escort boss Natalie Rowe, in a television interview broadcast last night, claimed that the tabloid deliberately twisted her claims that she and the Conservative Party politician used to snort cocaine together years ago so that Osborne was not tainted in the scandal.

The idea that Osborne – now one of the country’s most powerful politicians – could have been deliberately cast in a sympathetic light by a Murdoch paper have raised new questions about whether the nowdefunct tabloid was playing favourites with its political exposés.

The story begins with Rowe’s 2005 claim that she and Osborne used to snort cocaine together years ago. At the time, it was exactly the kind of story the brash News of the World loved – a mix of sex, politics and drugs – and even came with a picture of the youthful pair that the tabloid said

showed them arm-in-arm with a white substance in front of them.

In her interview with Australian Broadcasting Corp. television, Rowe claims that she was hoping to publish her allegations in the Sunday Mirror, which put out a story entitled “I snorted cocaine with top Tory boy” on Oct. 16, 2005.

But the News of the World – under circumstances which remain unclear – got a hold of the story at the same time, running
