UVic satellite builders in first

University of Victoria commerce grads Kim Cope, left, and Rebecca Koch have launched a startup business that teaches young kids the principles of entrepreneurship and charitable fundraising. The duo found guidance through UVic’s Innovation Centre for Entrepreneurs.

Team’s creation may well be spacebound

Edward Hill/News staff

Cultivating future success Promising business ideas are plentiful among University of Victoria students, grads

iving school kids $100 and a few lessons on entrepreneurship might seem like a risky business venture. But two University of Victoria commerce grads are proving it’s a concept that works. Their $5,000 investment in 50 B.C. schools has returned $55,000 in fundraising for Free the Children charity. “Now that’s being used to build six schools in Kenya,” said Rebecca Koch, the co-founder of Early Entrepreneurs with Kim Cope. “It’s schools helping Edward Hill build schools.” Reporting Koch and Cope have

integrated age-appropriate lessons on financial literacy, business savvy and global awareness into classrooms, which have used $100 in seed money to launch fundraisers. “Kids have no fear, kids will go wherever they want with an idea,” Cope said. “If we can teach kids how to start their own businesses, it will build skills and confidence for their future.” “It’s never too soon to develop the entrepreneurial mindset,” Koch said. “They don’t have any fear in the younger grades. Determination is key and younger kids are so creative and think of so many things.” To make it a business, the two women are seeking to partner with companies willing to donate expertise in exchange for better exposure in the community.

Cope and Koch developed Early Entrepreneurs with UVic’s Innovation Centre for Entrepreneurs (ICE) program, which matches bright ideas with an advisory team to help shape a business strategy. Previously open only to business students, ICE has been made available to any student, recent graduates, staff and faculty for non-profit and for-profit ventures. “There’s no shortage of excellent ideas at UVic,” said Reeta Tremblay, UVic vicepresident, academic. “UVic is expanding the program across all disciplines for students, staff and faculty to develop good ideas with business leaders.”

A team of students from the University of Victoria are sitting pretty heading into next spring’s final round of the Canadian Satellite Design Challenge. The members of the UVic club ECOSat recently placed first in the critical design review portion of the competition, in which seven university teams are competing. The UVic students, who have spent the last two-and-ahalf years designing and constructing a nanosatellite, have until spring 2014 to improve their creation’s design before the final review and environmental testing occur. Each university team had a goal to build a “3U” cube satellite – 10 centimetres by 10 cm by 33 cm and weighing about four kilograms. It would be large enough to house a payload of real experiments and wired to receive and transmit data, generate its own juice from solar panels and be tough enough to be punted from a rocket carrying a large satellite into orbit. The winning satellite will be launched into space after the final design review. kslavin@saanichnews.com

Runners on the starting line Travis Paterson News staff

You run hard and then you eat some turkey. It’s the simple way to look at this weekend’s marathon, as thanksgiving dinner is the reward for months of dedicated training. It isn’t just the 2,030 registered participants of the 42.2-kilometre GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon who’ll be working up an appetite, as another 5,292 are registered for the 21.1km half-marathon and 2,589 for the 8K road race. Those numbers were from Wednesday, and totalled 10,961, with the 1,050 mini marathoners set to partake in the 1.25 km Thrifty Foods Kids Run. That’s a lot of calories burned. And don’t forget the hundreds of volunteers, who deserve an extra spoonful of stuffing for making the race happen. Marathon weekend has grown into a serious business in Victoria,

More than 11,000 runners are expected to take part in Goodlife Fitness Victoria Marathon events this weekend, which includes a full marathon, half-marathon, 8K road race and kids’ run. a reliable economic generator as the city’s biggest sporting event and a major influence on the city’s cultural landscape.

that benefits charities – last year’s total money raised was $325,000 – and the general health of our community. The Victoria Marathon has influenced dozens of smaller races throughout

the season which are filled with marathoners ramping up for the big day. As the elites look to break records Sunday, behind them is 10,000 runners, mostly local, accomplishing a long awaited goal.

This Sunday’s Goodlife Fitness Victoria Marathon consists of four individual races.

IN BRIEF

Speaker series kicks off weekend The GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon’s race expo is hosting another strong guest list for its Speaker Series, tomorrow (Oct. 12) from 9:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the auditorium on level 1 of the Victoria Conference Centre. Speaking are Dick Beardsley, the former underdog who nearly outduelled Albeto Salazar in the 1982 Boston Marathon, Rich Benyo, the author and editor of magazine Marathon and Beyond, and Olympian Hilary Stellingwerff. Also speaking are Canadian running champion Lucy Smith, Mena Westhaver, founder of Sole Sisters, and Sara Joy Erickson of Running Moms.

Marathon road closures and traffic The GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon route will clog up much of downtown Victoria on Sunday morning, particularly at the start and finish line of Menzies Street and area. Expect detours and delays in the downtown core near the water, in James Bay and Beacon Hill Park before, and along Dallas Road, Gonzales Bay, Fairfield, Oak Bay and Uplands, where it turns around. Anyone living south of McNeill Avenue, east of Foul Bay Avenue and west of Oliver Street, can cross the marathon route in their vehicle on Foul Bay Road at McNeill Avenue.

Bring on the elites Black Press file photo

Large crowds are expected to cheer runners on in this year’s GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon. Best spots to view runners? Try areas near the B.C. legislature, Ogden Point, Mile ‘O’, Beacon Hill Park and the Victoria Golf Course.

Church rejects cell tower proposal after protest Kyle Wells News staff

Cadboro Bay United Church’s congregation has rejected a proposal to install a Telus cellphone antenna on church property. About 30 local residents protested at the church last Sunday with signs and slogans, trying to

convince congregation members to vote against the idea. Church council chair Bill Fosdick said the matter was voted on by the congregation after Sunday services, and the required twothirds majority to pass the proposal was not reached. “That was enough to give us a clear indication that we would not

advance the discussions,” Fosdick said. Protester Tony Martin called the decision “fantastic.” Among the group’s primary concerns, he said, was that only neighbours who were part of the congregation had input on whether to install the antenna in the neighbourhood. “We weren’t included, but we

were the ones who would be put at any potential risk,” he said. The device would have been installed inside a new bell tower at the church. A news release stated it had technical approval from various governing bodies. Martin said he understands the desire for better cell service, but doesn’t think the potential health

effects of living near a cellular antenna are worth the risk. Fosdick said issues of concern for parishioners were the economics of the tower project, community consideration and whether the modern technology would fit the look and values of the church.

Police encourage all road users to be alert to conditions Kyle Slavin News staff

As daylight hours dwindle in fall and winter and those scarce hours are usually characterized by grey, wet weather, police are reminding road users of the importance of visibility. Saanich police, along with ICBC and the District of Saanich, this week launched their winter-long reflectivity campaign, urging vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists to make themselves highly visible while out and about. “We’re hoping to change habits by seeing more people dressing to be seen, wearing reflective clothing, wearing William Shepherd/News staff reflectors on backpacks, Saanich police Sgt.

for example, should pay special attention since those areas have no lighting, Gurzinski said. “It’s really important as a pedestrian to be seen, not just be able to see. You’re putting yourself at risk if you’re not visible at all.” Police will be handing out reflectors in the coming months to help make road users more visible. “The reflectors are just a start,” Gurzinski said. “We need to educate to help people change their habits to make this a safer and nicer place to transit around, by walking or cycling.” For more information on the department’s reflectivity campaign, visit saanichpolice.ca. kslavin@saanichnews.com

UVic centre boosts startups Continued from Page A1 People with bright ideas need to prove to the centre’s advisors that their business concept is sound and well researched. Once past those hurdles, they’ll be assigned – for free – a three-person advisory board that will help shepherd the business plan to a point where it can be presented to investors. “The idea is to help take a business plan from an idea to investor-ready in a 40-week period,” said Bill Anderson, a founding advisor for the centre. “We want them to be able to walk into a room with bankers, angel investors or even the Dragons’ Den.” “We also look to see if they are passionate and committed to take their idea forward, or if it’s just the next bright idea of the week,” said Dale Wershler, the other founding advisor. “If they are accepted as a

client, it’s a big commitment of resources by the ICE team.” Anderson and Wershler acknowledge there are more big ideas on campus than advisor capacity. As it is, they expect the centre to manage about 15 clients in various stages of development, with about 30 to 40 volunteer advisors. In the past two years, ICE has helped mould a dozen startup companies, which have raised $300,000 in investment capital. Among them, an economics major is creating a service to help students find off-campus housing. Two graduate students in biology are developing a product to eliminate invasive plant species. And LimeSpot Solutions, a social media platform for retailers to gauge customer interests, emerged from the ICE program.

A Saanich man sought by the provincial Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit and wanted on firearms and drug-related charges turned himself in to police Tuesday. A warrant had been issued for 30-year-old Kevin Wayne Jones, who was initially arrested after an April 9 search of a home in the 4000-block of Saanich Rd. Officers found a 9mm handgun with the serial number filed off, plus ammunition and a pound of dried marijuana. Jones was released as the investigation continued. On Tuesday the Special Enforcement Unit asked for public assistance locating him. Within three hours Jones phoned police to say he would be turning himself in. He faces charges relating to possession of a firearm, as well as possession of a controlled substance. In an unrelated case, another Saanich man is facing a number of drugs and weapons charges after being the subject of a week-long covert investigation in late September. Victoria police arrested Lawrence Bergstrom, 41, on Oct. 1 in the 3900block of Braefoot Rd. in Saanich. He

OUR VIEW

Time to count our blessings W

hile we in Greater Victoria have many things to be thankful for year-round, now is, of course, the best time to express our thanks. We would like to start with the weather. Oh, are we grateful for our weather. While we are still basking in double-digit delight, our neighbours to the north are seeing the first few flakes of winter fall. Now, we realize that sooner rather than later our weather will take a more decidedly liquid form, but as we say in Victoria: at least we don’t have to shovel it. Next would be our quality of life. While this is difficult to quantify, we know we’ve got it good. Around the region we can bike to work, run through forested trails on the weekends, enjoy parks with up-to-date equipment and buy farm-fresh fruit and veggies almost any time of year. We can kayak in November, golf in December, ski in April, and those of us with leathery hides can swim in the ocean just about any darn day we please. As far as transportation goes, we’re pretty happy with our choices. B.C. Transit keeps us cruising around town on schedule for the most part. And while B.C. Ferries may take a lot of heat for giving high bonuses and raises to its top executives all the while asking for more subsidies, cutting services and increasing fares … wait, where were we going with this one? Thankful, right, thankful … clam chowder! Yum. Speaking of food. We can’t fail to mention our local restaurants. Whether it’s burgers, sushi, Thai, Indian, Korean, pizza, homemade doughnuts or ice cream you crave, you can find it here and it’s delicious. What would a Thanksgiving editorial be without thanking our municipal politicians? (We’ll let you ponder that for a minute …) No, really. These guys and gals aren’t in it for the money or fame. They work hard on our behalf far beyond one council meeting a week, with very little financial remuneration. They listen to residents’ complaints, take phone calls at home and respond to problems, both big and small, at the drop of a hat. And while our mayors may be low key and perhaps just a little bit dull, at least they’re not Rob Ford. For this we are truly grateful.

around Japan have been holding steady and not falling as expected, further demonstrating that radiation leakage is not under control. At least 42 fish species from the immediate area are considered unsafe for consumption, and fisheries there remain closed. New concerns continue to arise. While the initial leak contained cesium isotopes, water flowing into the ocean from the plant now appears to be higher in strontium-90, a radioactive substance that is absorbed differently. While cesium tends to go in and out of the body quickly, strontium heads for the bones. A huge accumulation of radioactive water at the plant must be dealt with immediately. Determining the full effects of years of exposure to lower levels of radioactive contamination leaking into the ocean will take time and require continued monitoring and assessment. While Health Canada monitors radionuclide levels in food sold in Canada, and one of its studies incorporates samples from Vancouver, we need to remain vigilant and demand timely monitoring results. Any amount of leaked radiation is harmful to the planet and the health of all species, including humans. A major release of radioactivity, such as that from Fukushima, is a huge concern, with unknowns remaining around long-term health risks such as cancers. That doesn’t mean it’s unsafe to eat all fish caught on the Pacific West Coast. I’m taking a precautionary approach: fish will stay part of my diet, as long as they’re caught locally and sustainably, and will remain so until new research gives me pause to reconsider.

Smoking restrictions a natural societal shift Re: Smokers kicked to the curb (News, Oct. 4) About five years ago, I was in Port Angeles, Wash. While there, I observed many signs that said it is unlawful to smoke with 25 feet of a doorway. My handy metric converter tells me that 25 feet is 7.62 metres. So, it would seem that our neighbours just to the south of us have been living with much stricter restrictions then we have for quite some time. Although, I am an advocate for civil rights, I am surprised

that the B.C. Civil Liberties Association has chosen to weigh in on this issue, as there are no “rights” involved here (human, natural, legal, or otherwise). One’s rights end at the end of their nose, i.e. one can not impinge on the rights of others without a very good reason such as traffic laws that prevent mass chaos on the roads, convicted criminals losing their right to freedom, etc. Smoking is something that very much impinges on the rights of others, yet there is no good reason for smoking.

It is very much detrimental both to the smoker and to society at large, and has no redeeming qualities. Thus there can be no “right” to smoke. Thus restrictions on smoking can not be said to violate civil liberties. You quote Dani Kong who asks why it is legal to smoke when it is such a problem. I suspect that it is legal because people have been smoking for hundreds of years, and it’s only in the last 50 years or so that we have known how detrimental it is. It takes time to change society; however,

I fully expect that smoking will be outlawed within my lifetime, and increasing restrictions are just a step along the way. Also, I will point out that there are other things that are legal but which are restricted. You can’t walk down the street with an open bottle of alcohol, for instance. One last thing, I must ask: why aren’t smokers fined for littering when they throw those dirty disgusting cigarette butts down on the ground? John Nemeth Esquimalt

Smoking ban doesn’t go far enough

This week’s online poll:

Re: Smokers kicked to the curb (News, Oct. 4) Smokers shouldn’t even need to be told not to smoke in elevators, at bus stops and in doorways, yet they do anyways. Electronic cigs don’t bother me one bit and maybe should be permitted everywhere, but cigarettes are extremely annoying. I carry a bandanna to hold over my mouth at all times to avoid the smoke of the dozens of smokers who will pass me everyday. I watch everyone approaching me, particularly their fingers, but still often smokers sneak up behind me. One huff can leave a nasty taste in your mouth for 20 minutes. I care about my health, I have suffered 20 years exposure to concrete dust and 10 years exposure to pesticide. As a poor wage slave, my ability to survive absolutely depends on my physical health. Even smokers hate secondhand smoke. If smokers want total rights and freedoms, go to China, where every household also burns coal. As deaths from smoking and air pollution mount in China, eventually they will impose smoking bans in public spaces. Smoking within a 40-foot radius of

9/11 statements misleading

Re: Taking aim at reader’s 9/11 building theory (Letters, Oct. 4) Mr. Simpson’s statements regarding 9/11 are misleading and devoid of scientific facts. The official 9/11 report compiled by The National Institute of Standards and Technology, admits that building 7 fell at free fall speed for 2.5 -3 seconds. This has been verified by thousands of experts around the world. Anyone who understands basic physics knows that for those 2.5 seconds there had to be absolutely zero resistance beneath. This is not a theory, this is science. Furthermore, Mr Simpson states that there is no documentation of thermite or a derivative being used in a controlled demolition, and therefore leads the reader to believe that it couldn’t possibly be done. I’d like to remind Mr. Simpson that before 9/11 (and since) there was no documentation of a steel-framed skyscraper collapsing due to fire, yet this is exactly what NIST claimed happened to building 7, a 47-storey skyscraper. I’d recommend visiting ae911truth.org where over 2,500 architects and engineers from around

the world are calling for a new independent investigation. Trevor Overbury James Bay

Science prevails in Arctic debate

Yes, we’re already lagging behind the U.S. in productivity

Re: Columnists climate views belie science (Letters, Oct. 9) I am not an apologist for big oil. I must, however, refute something that John R. Paterson said in his Oct. 9 letter written to counter an article by Tom Fletcher. A 2012 paper published in The Cryosphere finds Antarctica has been gaining surface ice and snow accumulation over the past 150-plus years, and even finds acceleration in some areas. There has been much play about diminishing ice in the Arctic and increasing global temperatures because open ocean absorbs the sun’s rays. Shouldn’t the opposite be true for Antarctica? Combine this with the IPCC’s data that the Earth’s climate has not warmed in the past 15 years in spite of increases in CO2 production, and I think a healthy dose of skepticism is in order. It disturbs me to see humancaused global-warming supporters make misleading absolute statements that are easily contradicted by science. Jeff St.Gelais Victoria

In these days of modern technology, it can be a daunting task for seniors to find specific services that fit their needs. Luckily, in the Greater Victoria region, there is a directory that will help them and their families in the quest for information. The Seniors’ Services Directory is a community resource handbook for the Capital Region providing detailed information on all the services seniors need as they face the challenges of aging, from home help to support groups, from care planning to financial assistance, housing, meals, and the list goes on. “We are the go-to in terms of

Saanich Senior

Where’s the value in longevity? A recent issue of National Geographic magazine carried a picture of a baby on its cover with the headline: “This Baby Will Live To ■ BRIAN KIERAN COLUMNIST Be 120.” That would be another 50 long, creaking, jointstiffened years for this senior. It surely reminds me of the well-worn adage: “If I knew I was going to live so long, I would have taken better care of myself.” I am heartened that most Canadian seniors don’t see much value in extreme longevity. Our peers think it is fundamentally unnatural and would not lead to a more productive nation. In the USA, however, the notion that medical science may let people live to 120 has more appeal.

USA-based Pew Research surveyed 2,000 American adults recently and discovered that more than two-thirds would like to live up to 100. That’s the magic of ObamaCare. They were optimistic that some scientific breakthroughs will occur in the next few decades. Seventy per cent think that by the year 2050 there will be a cure for most forms of cancer and that artificial arms and legs will perform better than natural ones. At present there is no method of slowing the aging process and extending average life expectancies to 120 years or more. But research aimed at unlocking the secrets of aging is under way at universities and in corporate labs. The Pew Research Centre’s Religion and Public Life Project reports that religious

leaders, bioethicists and philosophers have begun to debate about the morality of radical life extension. In Canada, 1,800 seniors polled by the Canadian Association of Retired Persons (CARP) say they’d like to live to age 94 on average but expect to live to about 88. Less than 10 per cent of Canadians think living to 120 is a good thing. For Canadians the single most common concern about living to 120 is that these extra years be healthy ones. Susan Eng, Vice President of Advocacy for CARP says: “Science holds out the promise of extreme longevity, but (Canadian seniors) have a more level headed reaction. They worry about staying healthy and the societal effects. They expect to live longer than their American counterparts – perhaps due to our universal health coverage – but are half as likely to undertake life extension treatments. If they had more years, they’d do the same as they do now. “Canadian seniors, for the most part, are happy with their lives and don’t wish to extend them beyond a natural span. The American public, on the other hand, is always attracted to bright shiny things and the promise of immortality is one of the brightest and shiniest of these." ●

seniors can be simply trying to give or get information over the phone. With close to 80 volunteers trained to provide information over the phone, Seniors Serving Seniors promises a one-on-one telephone interaction, and to return calls within a reasonable timelimit if messages are left on its answering machine. Greater Victoria residents don’t have far to look to find the help they need right in their own community. There are fee for service organizations, such as the recently-opened Oak Bay Community Senior Care (OBCSC), offering a wide variety of in-home support services on a fee-for-service basis and non-profits such as Silver Threads Service. Since Silver Threads opened its doors in 1956, their services, programs and community partnerships have evolved to meet the changing needs of a growing population of seniors. Silver Threads operates two senior activity centres, one in Greater Victoria downtown Victoria at 1728 residents don’t have Douglas St. and one in Saanich far to look to find at the Les Passmore Centre at 286 Hampton Rd. Its programs the help they need and services address the social, right in their own health, activity, intellectual and community. information needs of seniors and provide essential social connections. Since 1971, the non-profit Monterey Centre in Oak Bay has been providing seniors with lifelong learning opportunities through the multitude of courses available to members and non-members. It also provides an affordable hot lunch every day, something that seniors often wouldn’t bother with if they stayed at home. With more than 2,000 members, coordinator Lesley Cobus says she feels the Monterey Centre makes a difference in peoples’ lives. “There are so many things for them to do here,” Cobus said, “and it helps seniors remain active socially.” ●

ne of the first things David Diamond plans to ask Victoria audience members attending the Theatre for Living event is, “How many people are here to see a play?” You see, this is not your traditional theatre form. There are no actors, no script. It’s kind theatre from the inside out. Corporations in Our Heads, the latest offering from Diamond’s socially and psychologically tuned-in company, encourages people in the audience to share stories of how corporate messaging affects the way they live their lives, or how they feel about themselves. From there, they or others in the crowd get up and act out those messages in oftenhilarious improvisational style. “But it isn’t only about consuming,” Diamond says. “At the heart of it, it’s about the messages from corporations that affect our relationships with ourselves and others, because that’s what drives everything else.” Diamond doesn’t see consumption as the great evil, more so over-consumption. “Our role here isn’t just to empty the cabinet,” he says, speaking metaphorically of humans’ role on this planet. “But the messages we get about consumption lead us to empty the cabinet.” Theatre for Living was founded in Vancouver as Headlines Theatre in 1981 by a group of politically active artists including Diamond, who became artistic director in 1984. It evolved from Brazilian director Augusto Boal’s Theatre of the Oppressed, which used theatre to get discussions going about local issues of importance and has become an international organization. “Originally the idea (for our company) was to expose the headlines that were out there, but the nature of the work

really shifted to the communities,” Diamond says. “It really is more about (local) dialogue than saying ‘here’s the monster to defeat.’” Diamond and company had success with a previous participatory production, Two Degrees of Fear and Desire, in which audience members spoke about the barriers to them taking action on global warming. While the subject matter can be very personal and serious, in the end, these community events are still about entertainment and being creative.

“We are actually there to engage in art making,” Diamond says. “It’s called Theatre for Living, not lecture for living.

long, long time ago, Don McLean can still remember when music used to make him smile. But over the more than 45 years the American troubadour has been making music, it has changed — and changed a lot. “Music as I would define it is disappearing,” says McLean. “More people these days are screaming a lot. ... Songs can be identified within a few notes, there’s no real melody. There’s a lot of blather out there. They write a hook and repeat the same thing over and over. And that’s a good version of a pop song today. The bad stuff is unintelligible garbage.” As a folk artist who came up in the ‘60s and ‘70s playing in coffee houses alongside the likes of Pete Seeger, McLean has seen the industry change as quickly as the music. “The recording business is over — I

f Oscars were awarded on the basis of generating pure joy, this year’s leading candidate would be 20 Feet From Stardom, a delightful and engrossing documentary on the strange life of “should be famous” back-up singers. Spanning four decades and mostly focusing on five incredible female vocalists who have helped everyone from Sting to David Bowie become gold-plated music icons, Stardom manages to be both informative and exhilarating. A couple of the singers – Darlene Love, one of Phil Spector’s ‘60s girl-group superstars, and Merry Clayton,

most celebrated for her scalding duet with Mick Jagger on Gimme Shelter – have some name recognition. The others are less well known, even if their vocal chops are equally impressive. As the documentary unfolds, what fascinates are the different attitudes of these singers. Some, like Clayton, tried and failed to be stars in their own right. Then there is Lisa Fischer, a dazzling vocalist for the Rolling Stones who shuns the spotlight and prefers to make perfect harmonies in the background. We also see one of the singers resort to being a housemaid during tough times, and another who gets some very belated recognition at one of those glitzy Hall of Fame ceremonies.

Pig Roast

Saturday Oct. 12th, 11 am - 3 pm Live Bands, Face Painting & Jack FM on site!

CAPTAIN PHILLIPS -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Empire Uni 4/Westshore) Talented director Paul Greengrass (***Bourne Supremacy) tells the true tale of a ship captain (Tom Hanks) whose boat is captured by Somali pirates. MACHETE KILLS -(SilverCity) The irrepressible Robert Rodriguez (***Sin City, Grindhouse) churns out a lurid, jokily-violent sequel to his drive-in-style splatterfest about a machete-swinging dude (Danny Trejo) with a gory taste for vengeance. Co-starring Mel Gibson, Michelle Rodriguez, Lady Gaga, and Antonia Banderas. ★★ PARANOIA -(Roxy, 9:10) This overwrought tale of deadly, highstakes corporate espionage has a great cast (Gary Oldman, Harrison Ford) and a cheesy plot. THE RIGHT KIND OF WRONG -(Odeon/SilverCity/Westshore) In this romantic comedy a dishwasher falls in love with a bride on the day of her wedding. Too bad she’s marrying another dude. ROMEO & JULIET -(SilverCity) Shakespeare’s immortal romantic tragedy returns to the silver screen in lush period detail, this time in an adaptation by novelist Julian Fellowes (***Downton Abbey). ★★★★ WATERMARK -(Odeon) The newest collaboration between documentary filmmaker Jennifer Baichwal and renowned photographer Edward Burtynsky (Manufactured Landscapes) is a profound and engaging meditation on our complex relationship with water – and especially how our use of technology is affecting the world’s water supplies.

250.590.8879

BESHARAM -(Empire 6) This Bollywood-style romantic comedy from India features a delightful rascal of a fellow who lives in a Delhi orphanage … and steals cars to help support his struggling home. ★★★★ BLUE JASMINE -(Caprice) Cate Blanchett is headed for an Oscar nomination for her role as an emotionally fragile woman struggling to recover after her life as a glamorous socialite implodes. Complete with a great cast, this is one of Woody Allen’s best films. Ever. CLOUDY WITH A CHANCE OF MEATBALLS 2 -(SilverCity/ Westshore/Empire Uni 4) The wacky animated comedy about an infamous machine that churns out scary foodanimal hybrids was popular enough to merit a sequel. Consider yourself warned! With the vocal talents of Bill Hader, Anna Faris, and Will Forte. ★★½ DESPICABLE ME 2 -(Caprice) The 2010 original, about a loathsome criminal mastermind who was reformed by the love of three young orphan girls, was a goofy delight. The sequel, although still clever, is much more scattershot, with an unimaginative plot and unwelcome dashes of mean spiritedness. Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, and Russell Brand

supply the voices. ★★★ DON JON -(Empire 6/ SilverCity) Talented actor Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Looper) turned writerdirector for this wry comedy about a guy with a porn addiction who is having trouble finding happiness and intimacy with his real-life girlfriend. Beneath the raunch this is a movie with insight, wit and even a bit of heart. ★★½ ELYSIUM -(Caprice) Matt Damon and Jodie Foster star in a futuristic sci-fi thriller where the Earth has become a polluted ghetto and the lucky few get to live in luxury on a floating space station orbiting languidly above. Well, that’s about to change. It’s hard to argue with the politics, but this new film by the writer-director of District 9 is too heavy-handed and cliched to take seriously. ★★★½ ENOUGH SAID -(Odeon) The latest from delightfully quirky writer-director Nicole Holofcener (Please Give, Friends With Money) features a divorced woman who sets her sights on a man – only to learn that he is the much-loathed ex-husband of her new gal pal. This sweet, clever, sexy, and insightful sort-of romantic comedy stars Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Catherine Keener and, sigh, the late James Gandolfini. ★★★½ GRAVITY -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Empire Uni 4/Westshore) Sandra Bullock and George Clooney star in a harrowing, brilliantlyexecuted thriller about two astronauts aboard a space station who survive an accident only to find themselves drifting helplessly through space, with little hope of rescue or survival. ★★ INSIDIOUS: CHAPTER 2 -(Empire 6) The poor old Lambert family once again find themselves doing battle with evil entities from the darkest corners of the spirit world in this nightmarish but rather jumbled sequel. With Patrick Wilson, Rose Byrne, and Barbara Hershey. MONSTERS UNIVERSITY -(Caprice) In this prequel to the 2001 animated smash about fuzzy plush-toy monsters, we go back to the early days when Sully (John Goodman) and Mike (Billy Crystal) met at university. THE MORTAL INSTRUMENTS: CITY OF BONES -(Caprice) Only the bones were left after the critics universally savaged this derivative, overwrought tale of a young woman who discovers that she has unusual powers as she gets drawn into a battle involving a band of angel-like creatures struggling to quash a demonic threat to the entire world. PARKLAND -(Empire 6) Zac Efron and Paul Giamatti star in a drama that recreates the chaos that erupted at Parkland Hospital in Dallas the day President John F. Kennedy was assassinated. ★★★½ PRISONERS -(Empire 6/ Westshore) Quebec director Denis Villeneuve (Incendies) has been getting great praise for this bleak and violent police procedural about two kidnapped girls and the dad who will do anything to get them back. The

superb cast includes Hugh Jackman, Jake Gyllenhaal, Viola Davis, Terrence Howard, and Melissa Leo. See review. ★★ RIDDICK -(Caprice) Vin Diesel blasts back into outer space for the latest iteration of this gory and terrifying sci-fi series about a fugitive who once again finds himself battling alien predators and bounty hunters who want his head – literally. RUNNER RUNNER -(Odeon/ SilverCity/Westshore) A smart college student with a knack for gambling (Justin Timberlake) hooks up with a sinister offshore entrepreneur (Ben Affleck) who runs an online poker empire from a corrupt Caribbean island. This has become one of the worst-reviewed movies of the year. ★★★RUSH -(Odeon/SilverCity/ Westshore/Empire Uni 4) Gifted mainstream director Ron Howard (Apollo 13) delivers high-octane thrills and lots of human drama as he tackles this biopic about the legendary 1970s rivalry between Formula 1 race car drivers James Hunt and Niki Lauda. SMURFS 2 -(Caprice) The blue munchkins are back for more pintsized adventures, this one involving a sorcerer and a diabolical kidnapping ★★★ THE SPECTACULAR NOW -(Empire 6) Spectacular reviews have greeted this insightful and fresh look at the challenges of teenaged first love. Mature themes and emotionally persuasive performances make this of special interest. TURBO -(Caprice) The latest from Dreamworks Animation is a family comedy about an ordinary garden snail who acquires magic powers – and the chance to achieve his dream of winning the Indy 500. With the voices of Ryan Reynolds, Paul Giamatti, Maya Rudolph, and Samuel L. Jackson. ★★½ WE’RE THE MILLERS -(Caprice) Jason Sudeikis and Jennifer Aniston star in a crass comedy about a long-time pot dealer who hires a stripper and two feral teens to pretend to be his middle class family as cover for when he smuggles a massive load of weed across the border from Mexico to the States. Intermittently quite funny, this is a case of talented performers struggling with a second-rate script. ★★★ WOLVERINE -(Roxy, 7:00) Hairy-faced and Adamantium-clawed Hugh Jackman travels to Japan to confront the diabolical Silver Samurai, in an entertaining Marvel Comics smackdown that combines X-men flair with martial arts and yakuza elements.

CiNECENTA

Cinecenta at UVic screens its films in the Student Union Building. Info: 721-8365. ★★★ I’M SO EXCITED! -(Fri.-Sat., Oct. 11-12: 3:00, 7:10, 9:00) Spain’s superstar director Pedro Almodovar returns to his transgressive badboy roots with this crazy, highly sexualized comedy about what happens aboard a passenger jet

when it seems that they may be due to crash. THE CROODS -(Sat.-Sun., Oct. 12-13: 1:00 matinee) A prehistoric family taking an unexpected “road trip” into a magical land is the plot of this whimsical animated charmer (which has been getting great reviews). With the vocal talents of Emma Stone, Nicolas Cage, and Ryan Reynolds. ★★★★ 20 FEET FROM STARDOM -(Sun., Oct. 13: 3:00, 7:10, 9:00 & Mon.-Wed., 7:10, 9:00) The lives of talented but nearly anonymous backup singers in some of the biggest bands in the world are explored in a marvellous documentary that includes archival footage and interviews. Featuring Darlene Love, Merry Clayton … and slightly more famous performers like David Bowie, Sheryl Crow, Mick Jagger, and Ray Charles. Anyone who enjoys Motown and R&B will love this ravishing showcase of full-throttle singing. See review. KRAY (THE EDGE) -(Thurs., Oct. 14: 7:00, 9:30) This year’s “Galichenko Russian Film Night” features Russia’s submission for the 2011 Oscars, a multiple-award-winning dystopic action/love story about Second World War soldiers trapped in Siberia.

THE ViC THEATRE

The newly-reopened Vic Theatre is located at 808 Douglas Street. Info: thevic.ca CRAZY WISDOM -(Fri., Oct. 11 7:00) A legendary teacher of Tibetan Buddhism, Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, is featured in this documentary about the socalled “bad boy of Buddhism” who came to the West and gave highly untraditional teachings. WHEN THE IRON BIRD FLIES -(Sat., Oct. 12: 7:00) The Vic concludes its International Buddhist Film Festival with this 2012 documentary exploring the complex interactions between contemporary Tibetan Buddhism and western culture. ★★★ THE PRINCESS BRIDE -(Sun., Oct. 12: 7:00) Rob Reiner’s classic, much-loved spoof of fairy tales is this month’s “quote along” movie. THE ACT OF KILLING -(Mon.-Wed., Oct. 14-16: 7:00) This chilling and highly celebrated documentary features former Indonesian deathsquad leaders reenacting and otherwise candidly discussing their roles in the murders of countless citizens.

Marathoner refocuses on Vic Local eyes second win Travis Paterson News staff

It’s been a banner year for Catrin Jones and now the 2010 GoodLife Fitness Victoria Marathon winner is looking to cap it off with another win. She’s a favourite to win the women’s Victoria Marathon on Sunday (Oct. 13). Jones ran a personal best marathon time of two hours and 44 minutes in May at the Ottawa Marathon. She also won the 2013 Whistler Half Marathon in the spring and in July won two more events, the Kamloops Marathon and the Arc’teryx Squamish 50km ultra running trail race. She hadn’t intended on running the Victoria Marathon this weekend but when the Francophone Games cancelled its marathon event in September, which she had been specifically training for, it opened the door for Jones to run the Victoria Marathon again. “The Francophone Games canceled its men’s and women’s marathons the week before I left and it put things up in the air in terms of what I was going to do in the fall,” Jones said. “I was shocked and a surprised they would cancel both the marathons so late for such a large international event.” Instead, the Francophone Games invited Jones

training. There was a 50-km trail race in Ontario last week so I wasn’t sure which to run, but it’s hard to be in Victoria (this weekend) and watch the marathon rather than race it.” A registered massage therapist here in Victoria, Jones is originally from Nanaimo where she grew up swimming competitively. Despite her successes running marathons, Jones credits her relaxed attitude towards running as keeping it fun. “I try not to put too much pressure or over-focus on time and pacing in races,” Jones said. “I find not putting pressure on myself helps me run better.” Pressure aside, Jones trains heavily and is of the belief she can hit a personal best 2:40 on Sunday, as Victoria is a flatter course than Ottawa, where she ran 2:44. A time of 2:40 would bring Jones within three minutes off Lucy Njeri’s 2011 course record of 2:37:56, and likely first place among the women, which comes with a $3,000 prize. The men’s open marathon field of elites is deep, led by 2011 and 2012 winner Thomas Omwenga, 2010 winner Philip Samoe and Gilbert Kiptoo, who was second last year. The men’s half-marathon could feature the biggest duel of the weekend between Geoff Martinson (PB 1:05:39) and Willy Kimosop (PB 1:04:55). Olympian Hillary Stellingwerff will challenge the women’s half. sports@vicnews.com

Vikes host Dinos amid Bridgman hockey blitz Travis Paterson News staff

The UVic Vikes women’s field hockey team is back on the pitch this weekend against the Calgary Dinos for a pair of Canada West games. It’s the Vikes’ first varsity matches since sweeping the Dinos 6-0 and 2-0 in Calgary on Sept. 21 and 22. Game time is 11 a.m. Saturday and Sunday on the main field hockey turf at UVic. The Dinos (0-6) have struggled this season with just one goal in six games while the Vikes (2-0-1) and UBC Thunderbirds (4-0-1) have yet to meet. Rain cancelled the Vikes’ home game against the Thunderbirds on Sept. 28, which was later ruled a 0-0 draw, while the Sept. 29 game will be made up Oct. 26 in Victoria, just four days prior to the CIS national field hockey championships at UVic, Oct. 31 to Nov. 2.

The Vikes are coming off a 4-0 win on Oct. 5 over the Sharks in the premier division of the Vancouver Women’s Field Hockey Association. In addition to this weekend’s Vikes game is the 16-team Bridgman Cup high school girls field hockey tournament on the water-based and rubber-based field hockey turfs at UVic, today (Oct. 11) through Sunday.

The Bridgman Cup starts at 10 a.m. Friday with GNS facing North Vancouver’s Handsworth. Other games will see Mount Doug play Crofton House at 11 a.m., SMUS vs. Cowichan at 1 p.m., Kelowna vs. GNS at 2 p.m., Argyle vs. Oak Bay at 4 p.m. and SMUS vs. Carson Graham at 5 p.m. Pool play continues Saturday as Francis Kelsey plays GNS at 8 a.m., Mount Doug plays Gleneagle at 9 a.m., SMUS draws Little Flower Academy at 10 a.m. and Oak Bay plays South Delta at 10 a.m. Playoffs start at 1 p.m. Saturday, following the Vikes vs. Dinos game, and continue through Sunday morning with the bronze medal game at 1 p.m. on Sunday and the gold medal game at 2 p.m. sports@vicnews.com

Heritage buildings doing well in transition Looking around the empty main floor of the Carnegie Building, which began life as the Greater Victoria Public Library in 1904, one can almost picture an upscale boutique or some form of creative enterprise operating here. The classic building at Yates and Blanshard Don Descoteau streets, with its Biz Beat combination of interior pillars, artistic mouldings and other appealing design features, has a definite dramatic appeal. But the reality is it needs seismic upgrading and accessibility features to allow for a change in use to something

like, say, upscale retail. The Carnegie, last renovated in 1984, is one of many beautiful downtown heritage buildings for which commercial real estate company Colliers International is looking for tenants or buyers.

“The market is soft right now and there’s lots of competition out there. It’s really a tenant’s market,” said Tristan Spark, associate vice-president for Colliers in Victoria. As evidenced by recent successes, however, the company is looking increasingly to high-tech as a source of solid commercial tenants. But that shift comes with certain structural demands. Spark offers up

the Temple Building at Fort and Langley streets as an example of a heritage building that has been completely upgraded, and enhanced with such features as hardwood floors, a return to the original high ceilings and big windows, and exposed brick. “That’s almost what some companies expect to walk into,” he says. Many of the building owners that have done modern upgrades in recent years are seeing the rewards, securing high-quality tenants such as Microsoft, in the Dogwood building at Fort and Wharf Streets, and social media game designer Zynga, in the Board of Trade building at 31 Bastion Sq. “It’s hard to spend money on a vacant building (at a time of reduced revenue), but we try to tell them, ‘if you do it they will come,’” Spark says. Other examples of heritage buildings receiving modern upgrades are the Rithet Building at 1117 Wharf St. and the Rattenbury-designed 1005 Langley St., housing Black Hat Bistro at street level.

a seminar in Victoria on the changing work environment. Grouped work stations and open floor plans are becoming more common, as are larger kitchen areas, where brainstorming sessions often happen, Spark says. “People are rediscovering the role of the office.” As for the Carnegie, a beautiful building with plenty of potential on both of its Yates Streetfacing floors, its local ownership group may need to look at the market trends to attract the right clientele. – Colliers International, 250-388-6454 colliers.com/victoria

Fry’s Bakery giving public their daily bread To celebrate their first year in business, Byron Fry and his crew at Fry’s Bakery are hosting a Thanksgiving bread day this Sunday, Oct. 13. Unlike other days at the popular Vic West spot, however, the cash register will be turned off. Fry says the gesture is designed to help out people who can’t afford bread for Thanksgiving, and community members who support the store through the year. Opening time is between 10 and 11 a.m. and the bakery will stay open until there’s no bread left.
