BURNING QUESTION Firefighters call for new hall in Hammond Bay

Nanaimo Professional Firefighters Local 905 president Mike Rispin was one of the firefighters who helped extinguish a fire at this Jesters Way home on Saturday.

[AARON HINKS/DAILY NEWS]

Fire halls remain hot-button issue

JULIE CHADWICK DAILY NEWS

C

onstruction of a new fire hall in the Hammond Bay area could have provided a quicker response time to a weekend blaze in the Sherwood Forest neighbourhood, according to Mike Rispin, Nanaimo Professional Firefighters Local 905 president. Rispin also said a new hall could have mitigated resulting property damage from the fire. In 2005, the city’s fire plan called for seven halls to be built by 2015. This included the construction and staffing of a new fire hall in the Hammond Bay area, ideally close to Piper’s Lagoon, said Rispin. But the plan has experienced several delays and changes over the years, including debate over the use of finances necessary to begin construction. It remains an issue that firefighters and management say is about public safety.

The first five minutes of response time are crucial, said firefighter Dan Kershaw of Nanaimo Fire Rescue, who was at the Saturday blaze on Jesters Way that threatened several homes. Fighting fires in dense urban areas during a dry summer can present a variety of challenges, but according to Kershaw, the ability to respond swiftly is a top priority. A 2008 study found Nanaimo Fire Rescue did not meet safety standards to arrive at 90 per cent of all area incidents within six minutes.

The first fire truck arrived at Saturday’s fire on Jesters Way from the Labieux Road fire hall in six minutes and 50 seconds, according to Nanaimo Fire Rescue figures. “The last station — to be built in the Hammond Bay area — was supposed to be completed by 2015. Now that’s been further delayed by two years, and now that’s ‘projected’ on the books for 2017, barring council either delaying it or cancelling it altogether. So my push is to get it completed,” said Rispin. “They should have followed the plan that they originally had, which would have given us more resources for fires similar to the one that we just had. Or any other fire out there. “My fear is that it’s going to take a tragedy to have the hall completed and staffed, and we don’t want to see that.” Mayor Bill McKay said that under a new integrated management system, the city could find funds to build additional halls without hiring more firefighters.

He argues that this management plan, which puts a focus on both fire prevention and a better use of resources, would allow for the construction of new fire halls with no increase in the number of firefighters. This plan could also be enacted with little to no cost to the taxpayer, he said. “There would be smaller battalions, and a different principle of dispatch,” said McKay. “We want to have more discussions with firefighters, engage in more conversation with them about what that model’s going to look like. They’ve been concerned about using a different model but are willing to engage in that conversation.” McKay confirmed that the plan to build a new hall is still “on the books” in the financial plan but is yet unconfirmed, and speculated instead about the possibility on constructing a multi-purpose structure on Hammond Bay, one which would include fire, police and ambulance all in the same building.

In addition to public safety and property destruction costs, other factors come into consideration when fighting fires during a dry, hot summer, said Rispin. Labouring under the weight of approximately 22.5 kilograms of gear in Saturday’s 32 C weather, firefighters also had to contend with their own safety. “We were rotating guys in and out of the fire area from Sir Lancelot down every 20 minutes due to the heat and smoke,” said Rispin. “They went to B.C. ambulance attendants to check their blood pressure, their temperature and pulse rate before we could put them back in, so we really had to keep an eye on that.” Julie.Chadwick @nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4238 » We want to hear from you.

CRIME

Woman allegedly beaten, robbed Police report bizarre incident in Victoria; teen arrested at ferry terminal attempting to leave Island DARRELL BELLAART DAILY NEWS

Charges are being recommended against the teenage relative of a mid-Island woman who was reportedly recently beaten and robbed in Victoria. The 59-year-old woman was robbed in the Fort Street area of the city. The woman, reportedly from the mid-Island region, had just

driven with the youngster to Victoria. He was visiting the Island from Saskatchewan. Because it involves a young person, police can not release information that can identify the suspect, due to youth privacy regulations. Cash and her car were reportedly stolen. Police responded to a 911 call from a witness.

Police described the woman as badly shaken up in the robbery, but not seriously injured. “Just before 7 p.m. on July 28 we were called to the area near Stadacona Park by the victim, a 59-year-old relative of the suspect, who reported that she had been violently robbed of her vehicle and cash by the youth,” said Bowen Osoko, Victoria Police Department communica-

tions co-ordinator. “Although shaken, the injuries she received were non life-threatening.” The car was found in an Oak Bay cul-de-sac and police arrested a youth at the Swartz Bay ferry terminal at 8:30 p.m. “We were able to locate the youth attempting to leave the Island. At that time he provided a false name to officers and was

located with a quantity of illicit drugs,” Osoko said. “We are recommended four charges against a 14-year-old Saskatchewan youth relating to this incident.” Those include robbery, theft, obstructing a police officer and drug possession. Darrell.Bellaart@ Nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4235

Ferries and the float plane and helicopter operators who provide passenger services from its property from 15 cents per passenger to 25 cents. Capt. Edward Dahlgren, the NPA’s harbour master and director of operations, said approximately four million passengers per year use these operators. That amounts to approximately $600,000 in fees each year that the NPA uses to help cover costs of providing water and safety support to users of its facilities. Dahlgren said that as part of the NPA’s normal operations, it periodically reviews the tariffs it charges users of its facilities “in relation to current, planned, and regulatory operational capabilities.” “This includes the provision of staffing, maintenance and upgrades to reflect roles and responsibilities in maintaining safe navigation, marine security, and environmental-response capability,” he said. “It’s a fact that we currently have two patrol boats with three crews working 24 hours a day, seven days a week that we didn’t have five years ago, among other new expenses related to safety and security issues.” The NPA first introduced a passenger fee in 2005 and, during the following decade, Dahlgren said additional regulatory conditions had been added to the port authority’s responsibilities, such

as the procurement of additional marine security. Dahlgren said that in recent years, the port authority has enhanced its seagoing patrol assets, including developing the around-the-clock emergency response capability.

He said the NPA has also played a role in developing and deploying a Marine Domain Awareness System, which provides real-time monitoring of the waters administered by the association, and offered its support of the marine trade of the Asia

Pacific Gateway. “Safety, security and environmental response require ongoing investment and support,” Dahlgren said. “The commercial shipping sector provides its apportioned share through the harbour

dues. The goal is to provide a fair and transparent cost recovery for vital but non-economic expenses.” Robert.Barron @nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4234

Chambers continue quest to keep membership growing ROBERT BARRON DAILY NEWS

Chambers of commerce around the country are battling to keep their memberships up. The Qualicum Beach chamber of commerce has approximately 270 members, a significant drop of 23 per cent over the past decade, while Parksville’s chamber is down to approximately 450 members from about 500 registered a few years ago. The Greater Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce currently has approximately 780 members with last year being the first time those numbers grew slightly

“We also need to put more of a focus on what we have been successful at, like advocating for their interests in many ways.” Jan Garson, B.C. Chamber of Commerce

in six years, although officials acknowledge it’s an ongoing struggle to keep the numbers up. Membership in Ladysmith’s chamber has been stable at

approximately 170 members for years, without any significant growth. Jan Garson, from the B.C. Chamber of Commerce, said the trend is national in scope and there are a number of reasons for it. He said it’s part of a problem many community groups across the country are facing in attracting new members. “As well, young business people today are finding it easier to develop business relationships online as opposed to face-to-face networking that many chambers advocate and organize. We are adapting to deal with this

issue and are looking for ways in which local chambers can be more relevant for its members. We also need to put more of a focus on what we have been successful at, like advocating for their interests in many ways.” Evelyn Clark, CEO of the Qualicum Beach Chamber of Commerce, said her chamber’s numbers are partly due to the fact that small businesses in her town are facing growing pressures from large chain stores in neighbouring communities. “We also have an aging population here and the baby-boomers with businesses are retiring with

no one to take their place,” Clark said. Kim Smythe, CEO of the Greater Nanaimo Chamber of Commerce, said his chamber has managed to keep its numbers “steady” even with all the challenges it’s facing. “We need to do all that we can to be a relevant organization for local businesses, like focusing on the needs of the individual business sectors in Nanaimo,” he said.

We need to play to our strengths in tourism

T

ourism in Nanaimo had for a time the reputation of being the runt of the litter when it came to the various business sectors in the Hub City. The cry was often “but there’s no central focus for people to make Nanaimo a destination, they just pass through.” Naysayers and negative nellies around town don’t mind repeating this as though it were some sort of established fact. They do it because they can and because being in possession of a negative fact only reinforces their own negative realities. But the facts are quite different. Working from the centre outward, this city is in no way lacking what it takes to attract tourists. Could it be better? Sure, we

could have a Science World, a large historic site or stunning and large botanical gardens. Start with the downtown. In the last 10 years that area has become a real draw, according to Tourism Nanaimo, for people from elsewhere on the Island, the Lower Mainland and Washington State for a getaway. There is fine dining, nightlife, theatre and music in a town that has produced more jazz stars than just Diana Krall. Take a few steps from Commercial Street, and we have what is one of the finest waterfronts in Canada. Beyond the beauty of the harbour, Newcastle and Protection and Islands lies the majestic beauty of the Coast Mountains. Glorious to see on a clear day.

As the downtown has blossomed, tourism seems to be shaking its runt reputation. Outside of the downtown is not exactly barren. Those malls for which Nanaimo was once mocked also have potential to draw those looking for a weekend getaway. Complementing those malls are sports fields that pull in many from other communities for games and tournaments. All are part of the tourist dollar and no small thing. And the Nanaimo Economic Development Corporation and tourism officials have surely taken note of the sinking Canadian dollar (75.83 cents US on Wednesday). A few slick ads placed in the right places for Americans — print, broadcast

and web — should appeal to those looking for a real West Coast Canadian experience. We know how this works, that word of mouth is probably the best advertising. Get them here, make sure the program runs smoothly and they will tell their friends about this great little spot on the West Coast of Canada. The tourism issue in Nanaimo is not something to fixed, but something to build on. As we work from our strengths, let the naysayers and negative nellies crawl back under their rocks. We will work our tails off to make this a destination whether or not there is a centrepiece. And speaking of building, one thing that will build on those strengths is the multiplex pro-

posed for the Howard Johnson site at Comox Road and Terminal Avenue. While still early in the game, the city needs to stand behind this idea. It has to potential to increase this city’s tourism numbers by drawing people to major sport and entertainment events. There is no fix for the city’s tourism sector because it ain’t broke. We just need to remember that we have what we have, and within that are the strengths that will boost this sector. Who wants to come to Nanaimo?

Tom Fletcher Opinion

N

ow that the political back-and-forth is over, there are two questions left about the Petronasled proposal to make the biggest private-sector investment in B.C. history. Will it actually happen? And is it a good deal or a bad one? Premier Christy Clark ducked the first question on the day the project agreement for Pacific Northwest LNG was approved by the B.C. legislature. “After many predictions about the Canucks and the Alberta election, I don’t make predictions any more,” Clark said. “But I can say that this project has gone farther than any of our critics said that it would.” For what it’s worth, my prediction is on record: it will go ahead.

The latest evidence is the company’s continued, costly effort to gain federal and local approval for a suspension bridge to Lelu Island to minimize the marine impact. Lax Kw’alaams Band members could not have had details on that change from an underwater pipeline when they voted to oppose the project in May. Is it a good deal? The mayors of Prince Rupert and Port Edward have made their views clear — they see it as a lifeline for an area that has struggled for years with a faded forest and fishing industry. The B.C. NDP is also now clear, having voted against the project agreement in the summer session of the legislature that concluded last week. Whether the project proceeds or not, this will be a key election issue in 2017. NDP leader John Horgan and other MLAs made much of the lack of job guarantees, pointing to similar projects in Australia. Natural Gas Development Minister Rich Coleman issued a statement with excerpts from the state of Western Australia’s agreement for the Gorgon LNG

project. The so-called guarantees contain qualifiers like this: “. . . except in those cases where . . . it is not reasonable or economically practical to do so, use labour available within Western Australia.” Obviously there were no job guarantees, which could only exist in a command economy, in other words a communist dictatorship. Everyone agrees that specialized trades such as welding alloys for low-temperature operation will be brought in. And LNG processing trains will be shipped in pre-fabricated from places like South Korea, as they have been in Australia and elsewhere. Pacific Northwest LNG is on record with federal regulators that in the latter stages of construction, the use of foreign labour for the project could reach 70 per cent. Does that make it a bad deal? Perhaps B.C. could attempt develop this expertise from the ground up. It seems to me that was tried with aluminum ship fabrication, and it didn’t work out too well.

For David Keane, president of the B.C. LNG Alliance, the question is how many large LNG projects, pipelines and all, can be managed at the same time as the Site C dam is being built. It was skilled labour shortages, and particularly a shortage of supervisors, that caused Australia to lose some of its proposed projects. Keane said all LNG proponents here want to use as much local labour as they can, because it’s less expensive and it builds local support. And he disagrees that B.C. is a sweet deal for the industry. Among other things, pipelines have to be built across two mountain ranges. Not only that, B.C. producers would pay an LNG income tax, which is a first in the history of the industry. Add to that PST, GST, payroll taxes, municipal taxes and federal and provincial corporate income taxes. Add aboriginal revenue sharing, and we have a deal.

MID-ISLAND LIFESTYLES Kait’s Corner

POLICE

It’s all about circles and glass

Rat poison found in city backyard DARRELL BELLAART DAILY NEWS

Kait Burgan Kait’s Corner

H

i there! Thanks for checking out the first ever Kait’s Corner. It’s been 10 years since my meanderings have been shared between these folds and it’s great to be back with the Nanaimo Daily News. I hope you continue to check it out. The “it” you will find here is a fluid thing. The content and mood will morph with the community and the experiences I get to have in it. I hope to have a bit of a theme each time, something weaving together a couple of different topics. Today, that theme seems to be corners, and glass. While a corner can be thought of as two lines leading to a point; something sharp and perhaps rigid, I prefer to think of the flowing, more bendable types of corners; the kind that make up a circle; a flowing re-direction connecting what has been to what is coming. This is where Ted Jolda comes in. Ted is an internationally celebrated glass artist, hailed as Canada’s No. 1 maker of Christmas ornaments. There’s no doubt his Golden Pears hitting Oprah’s “O” List in 2002 helped him get that prestigious title but without his talent to back it up, it would have melted into oblivion years ago. Today, his glassware has been purchased and used by queens, prime ministers and presidents. I first met Ted at his Parksville Studio in 2003 when I was working for

A5

Ted Jolda is an internationally celebrated glass artist.

CH Television and writing regularly for the Daily News. Ted moved to Cedar a year ago. Remember a couple of paragraphs back, I mentioned circles and soft corners? Ted, and his partner Carolyn Lutz, are giving new life to one of the regions most beloved artistic gardens. What used to be Grant Leier and Nixie Barton’s property in Cedar by the Sea, is now The Jolda Gallery and Gardens. The moss covered artifacts, installations and overall quirkiness that has been slowly disappearing under moss and vines on the three acres that connect the gallery, studio and house, is slowly being uncovered so it can once again be celebrated for it’s artistic uniqueness. “I’m a single dad and a self-employed artist,” Ted says, adding sarcastically that, “banks love people like us.” He laughs, but despite huge uncertainty around the reality of affording the 11-acre-property, the bank said “yes” and he’s living his dream every day. Ted and Grant and Nixie

are friends and Ted had been a guest there many times. He fantasized about having a place like it one day. Perhaps life’s circles are at work as Ted and Carolyn turn a rounded corner into the next chapter of their lives, and in the process, bring a magical piece of Vancouver Island back it’s former glory for all to enjoy. The Jolda Gallery and Garden is located at 3140 DeCourcy Dr. in Cedar, and is open to the public. Before we wrap up for today, more on the theme of circles and glass. There’s been a lot of buzz in the Oceanside region lately about a little thing called Finders Keepers, a go-at-your-own-pace treasure hunt in which Karena Donnelly of Smashin’ Glass and Anything Art hides 2500 numbered glass pieces between May 1 and Labour Day at Rathtrevor Beach, Eaglecrest in Parksville and Brickyard Bay in Nanoose. If you find one, let the folks at Smashin’ Glass know and you’ll be entered to win a Glass Fusion Workshop. Karena also hides a glass sea star on each beach and if you

find one of those, you can make another of a different size. Beachcombing has taken on a whole new meaning for anyone who’s heard of this and my six-year-old daughter has taken it upon herself to paint rocks and shells to hide when we go to the beach. Trading beach treasure has become more intense than bartering for Pokemon. As the gardens that Grant Leier and Nixie Barton created in Cedar round a corner into the next chapter with Ted Jolda, families scavenge Oceanside beaches for treasure, some of which find their way back to their creator at Smashin’ Glass and I find myself reflecting on the decade that has passed since my meanderings were shared in these pages. It would seem that in life, there are no hard points. No rigid spaces but rather, a series of connected soft corners that somehow bring experiences of place together. Feedback is always great and I’d love to hear from you. You can reach me at www.kaitsquirks.com.

Someone dumped rat poison in a south Nanaimo backyard, and Nanaimo RCMP want to find out who’s responsible before an animal or child is hurt. Laura Nelson Martens discovered a plastic bag of green pellets on her Milton Street property Monday. She spoke to the SPCA, who issued a warning on social media, and advised her to involve police. She first noticed the poison Monday, and “they weren’t there Sunday evening,” Martens said by email. “At first I thought they may have been dragged into the yard but on closer investigation I realized they had been tossed. “I believe they were thrown over my fence, the pellets were only on the

ground in the spot I found them, and no one I talked to had seen anyone enter my yard.” Once reassured her two cats hadn’t eaten it, she became angry someone would put the neighbourhood cats at risk. “I’ve only lived in Nanaimo since the beginning of July, and have found the people here to be friendly and kind. I was really shocked to find not all of them are,” she said. Const. Gary O’Brien of the Nanaimo RCMP said if it kills an animal, those responsible could be charged under the Animal Cruelty Act, and “we certainly want to find the persons responsible and put an end to it.” Darrell.Bellaart@ Nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4235

ISLAND ROUNDUP News services

UPDATE

Fishing in all but three rivers and streams on Vancouver Island will be suspended until further notice due to the ongoing warm water temperatures and low flows. The suspension for north Vancouver Island, which was set to begin on Aug. 4, is intended to protect fish stocks at a time when they are vulnerable due to the current drought conditions. Combined with the order that came into effect July 4 for South Vancouver Island, virtually all fishing in Vancouver Island streams is now prohibited. The Campbell, Qualicum (known as “Big Qualicum”) and Quinsam rivers are now the only rivers or streams on Vancouver Island exempt from the closure. These rivers have sufficient water refuges to adequately protect fish, even with normal angling pressure, according to a news release from the Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource. The Department of Fisheries and Oceans has also closed fishing on Vancouver Island and the two

Large forest fire near Skutz Falls is contained A large forest fire that broke out near Skutz Falls has been declared to be 100 per cent contained, and is now in “mop-up” process. “Crews are working to get hot spots out and we’re hoping to get it in patrol by mid-week,” Coastal Fire Centre information officer Donna MacPherson said on Monday. “We’ll be turning it back to industry for patrol.” The fire has since grown to 16 hectares, though according to the Coastal Fire Centre, crews have it contained within the perimeter, and it is no longer considered a “wildfire of note.” Local firefighters from Lake Cowichan and Sahtlam were first called to combat the fire on July 28 in the late afternoon, as the blaze was visible from both ends of Highway 18. The fire broke out on private forested land in slash (bucked and felled timber) amidst a steep slope, just 10 kilometres east of Cowichan Lake. — LAKE COWICHAN GAZETTE

The Nanaimo SPCA’s annual garage sale will take place next Saturday, Aug.15, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at its Labieux Road office. Last year, the sale raised approximately $1,500 and branch manager Leon Davis hopes to better that this time round — with all of the funds being put towards the care of the animals at the shelter. Davis said the branch is looking for “quality, lightly used items” for the sale such as books, tools, games, sporting goods, toys and kitchenwares. Items can be dropped off at the shelter Monday to Saturday between 9 a.m and 5 p.m. “We’d love to raise a couple thousand dollars,” said Davis, who admits he’s in awe of the Cowichan SPCA branch which raises close to $50,000 on average from its garage sale each year. “We just don’t have the resources that they do, but once we open our new shelter on 12 acres of land, we’re hoping to stage a bigger event.” Refreshments and a vegetarian barbecue will be available by donation.

Home prices just keep on going up

Province raises drought level again

Mill owners review findings of coroner

There appears to be no ceiling for the cost of homes in the Vancouver area, as more properties keep selling for higher prices. The Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver released statistics Wednesday showing July sales of homes jumped 30 per cent compared to the same time last year. The average price for a residential property in the board’s 16 cities, districts or municipalities was $700,500, an 11.2 per cent increase from 2014. While the demand is high, there are fewer homes on the market, and board president Darcy McLeod said that can lead to multiple offers on homes in desirable areas.

British Columbia residents are once again being asked to curb their water use as drought conditions persist throughout the province. The Forests Ministry has raised the drought rating to Level 4 in the Okanagan region, signalling extremely dry conditions that could lead to water shortages. The north Thompson region has had its rating raised to Level 3. Drought ratings for the south Thompson, Similkameen, Kettle and Skagit areas were all raised to Level 4 on July 27. Municipalities throughout the province have put water restrictions into effect.

The owners of a northern B.C. sawmill and its operator say they will review the recommendations of a coroners inquest into the deaths of two workers in an explosion. Hampton Affiliates and Babine Forest Products say they will also discuss last week’s ruling with employees in the next 60 days. The inquest concluded that 45-year-old Robert Luggi and 42-year-old Carl Charlie died after a January 2012 blast at the mill about 200 kilometres west of Prince George. A WorkSafeBC investigation revealed an accumulation of wood dust was a major factor in the disaster that also injured 19 other workers.

Leaders prepare for WestJet pilots vote against union first election debate IAN BICKIS THE CANADIAN PRESS

KRISTY KIRKUP THE CANADIAN PRESS

OTTAWA — On the eve of the first federal leaders’ debate, Canada’s campaign trail grew quiet Wednesday as rivals prepared for their live four-way faceoff. Two of them, however, sent campaign proxies. Laureen Harper stepped up to fill her husband’s shoes, speaking briefly to party supporters at the campaign office for Conservative Costas Menegakis in Toronto. And the NDP offered a new attack ad to fill the campaign void — a collection of doom-andgloom business-page headlines superimposed over photos of Stephen Harper. As is always the case for the prime minister, Stephen Harper will surely be the target of most of the attacks — a fact not lost on the Conservative team, said spokesman Kory Teneycke. “Attacking the prime minister is one thing,” Teneycke said Tuesday in Toronto. “What would you do if you were prime minister is another, and so I think there will be some account-

REVIEW

Fantastic Four not so fantastic It hits the standard superhero riffs, but provides nothing in the way of imagination or magic Fantastic Four STARRING: Miles Teller, Kate Mara, Michael B. Jordan Director: Josh Trank RATING: PG PLAYING AT: Galaxy Cinemas RUNNING TIME: 106 minutes KATIE WALSH TRIBUNE NEWS SERVICE

“F

antastic” is a strange name to claim for oneself. Pretty egomaniacal, really. It implies a certain level of pizzazz, of genius, of flash-bang razzle dazzle. And with characters that have powers like invisibility, force fields, flying fireballs and rock clobbering, you might expect some level of fantastic fantasy. But the latest iteration of Fantastic Four is far from what its name suggests. Profoundly uninteresting, it hits all the beats of the standard superhero movie, but provides nothing in the way of imagination or magic. Primarily concerned with the origin story of the foursome, this version, directed by Josh Trank, starts at the beginning _ with fifth grader Reed Richards, professing his goal to one day build a teleporting device. With his buddy Ben Grimm, he actually manages to build something that seems to work. Fast forward seven years, and Reed (Miles Teller) is recruited at the science fair by Franklin (Reg E. Cathey) and Sue Storm (Kate Mara) to develop his teleporter, or Quantum Gate, as they rename it. At the Baxter Institute, Reed collaborates with the Storms, including rebellious Johnny (Michael B. Jordan) and paranoid, anti-government hacker type Victor Von Doom (Toby Kebbell) to realize his childhood goal. The trio of guys are hungry for glory, unwilling to let the public credit their achievements go to anyone else. One drunken impulse, and spin in the Quantum Gate later, and they’ve irrevocably changed their lives forever. The botched mission

results in the transformation of their bodies — disabilities that become abilities — and the loss of Victor to Planet Zero. All of the performers are compelling and charismatic, but there’s something about the film that just feels so incredibly dull and basic. Every moment is predictable _ we know the story beats of the superhero origin by heart now, and in a post-Whedon/ Nolan superhero universe, anything that’s not snappy and

funny, or dark and violent is just going to seem tedious and repetitive. The culprit is the script. Credited to three people, many more surely took a pass at it, and the result of so many cooks is something that has no voice at all. There’s no emotional stakes whatsoever, and the film only takes place in either a lab or on Planet Zero, so the inevitable “saving the world” climax is

completely unearned. The only interpersonal conflict is between Reed and Ben (also Kate Mara vs. her numerous wigs), and the friendship betrayal that Ben feels is the only thing that elicits any kind of emotion or sympathy. During the climax it completely falls apart. Teller, usually a charming presence, is saddled with the task of standing on a rock saying some of the most inexplicably obvious lines like “don’t do this!” and “we’re

stronger than him.” Blessedly this final fight ends quickly, and the film rapidly slips away (although this 100 minute movie feels three hours long). It’s not offensively bad, it’s even mildly pleasant in parts. But anything edgy or interesting that may have once been has been sanded down so much that the film feels completely anonymous, barely even a film at all. Fantastic? Hardly.

REVIEW

‘Diary of a Teenage Girl’ a strikingly intimate film Diary of a Teenage Girl STARRING: Bel Powley, Kristen Wiig, Abby Wait, Alexander Skarsgard Director: Marielle Heller RATING: Restricted RUNNING TIME: 102 minutes JAKE COYLE THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

In Diary of a Teenage Girl, a bell-bottomed California 15-yearold girl comes of age in 1970s San Francisco. She documents the transition she’s been craving, narrating into a tape recorder her eager plunge into sex and adulthood, and illustrating it in crude cartoons that take after R. Crumb. The awakening of Minnie Goetze (23-year-old Bel Powley) is awkward and brash, enthusiastic and angst-ridden, lewd and tender. And it’s gloriously honest. As a film made by women and starring a female protagonist, Diary of a Teenage Girl is a bracingly fresh entry in a coming-of-age tradition that has, in the movies, almost always been seen through male eyes. It’s an unusually accomplished first film from Marielle Heller, who also wrote the screenplay, an adaptation of Phoebe Gloeckner’s 2002 graphic novel. The different perspective is clear from the first shot, in which Heller, in close-up, trails from behind and below the hippy strut of Minnie. She narrates: “I had sex today. Holy s—.” Minnie smiles to herself, but her glow momentarily fades when a buxom blonde jogs past her.

Kristen Wiig, from left, as Charlotte Goetze, Bel Powley as Minnie Goetze and Alexander Skarsgard as Monroe, in a scene from the film, ‘The Diary of a Teenage Girl.’ [THE ASSOCIATED PRESS]

Such fleeting, contrary emotions of exuberance and selfdoubt pinball throughout Diary of a Teenage Girl, a movie with a firm grip on how it feels to be a precocious 15-year-old in burning pursuit of self-discovery. She finds much of it within her family’s wall-papered, secondfloor San Francisco apartment, where she lives with her mom, Charlotte (Kristen Wiig), and little sister, Gretal (Abby Wait). The air is filled with cigarette smoke, California sunlight and

the moral muddiness of post60s, Patty Hearst-era 1976. After a string of men, her mom is “looser now,” Minnie says. She vacuums during coke-fueled cleaning binges. Minnie, big-eyed with dark bangs, is told she “exudes sexuality.” Her first sexual experience, and one that continues throughout the film, is with her mother’s 35-year-old easy-going, beer-drinking boyfriend, Monroe (a striking, naturally charismatic Alexander Skarsgard). What

begins with childlike playfulness begets a full-blown affair. The age difference, of course, makes the relationship inappropriate, but Diary largely withholds that judgment. Minnie is the one who’s choosing her partners and driving her story. After their first time in bed, she asks Monroe to take a polaroid of her, so she can see how she’s changed. She deduces she looks different: “probably my aura.” In her headlong rush into adulthood, she passes by the

boys of her high school. One is frightened by her experienced prowess in bed. The escapades grow darker, too, in the chapter she introduces as The Making of a Harlot. The sole grounding voice in her life is her former stepfather Pascal (Christopher Meloni), who makes comic but heartfelt attempts to sternly instruct Minnie and Gretal. The whole ensemble is excellent, but the film belongs to Powley, who doesn’t so much play Minnie as become her. Her performance is remarkably easy in its intimacy, filled with moments like gazing skeptically at her naked body in the mirror and jumping on her bed with a friend to Iggy Pop and the Stooges. Female sexuality has typically been so constrained by the movies that Diary of a Teenage Girl feels almost radical in its portrait of empowering promiscuity. Heller occasionally overlays the film with bits of psychedelic animations by Sara Gunnarsdottir, a technique that has become to feel a little overused. Minnie aspires to become a cartoonist like Aline Kominsky, R. Crumb’s future wife, who, herself, succeeded in the male-driven comic book industry. But thank goodness the irreverent but earnest Diary of a Teenage Girl avoids the moralizing that would usually accompany a film about young people, sex and drugs. Besides, Minnie is too busy growing up to get bogged down in such things, too busy haplessly becoming one of the most memorable protagonists of the year.

Clippers move two veterans

Lions look to bounce back with win over Edmonton

Anthony Rinaldi, Jacob Hanlon traded to Kingston to cut down on 20-year-olds SCOTT MCKENZIE DAILY NEWS

The Nanaimo Clippers won’t be going into training camp with 10 20-year-olds anymore, but they still have two too many. Working to get to the B.C. Hockey League’s roster limit of six 20-year-old players, Clippers head coach and Mike Vandekamp has shipped centremen Jacob Hanlon and Anthony Rinaldi to the Ontario Junior Hockey League’s Kingston Voyageurs in exchange for 19-year-old forward Matt Hoover. Vandekamp was unavailable for comment. After veteran stars Sheldon Rempal, Devin Brosseau and Yanni Kaldis elected to forego their first years of U.S. college hockey in favour of another year in the BCHL, the Clippers were put into a roster squeeze with 10 20-year-olds expected to return. With Rinaldi and Hanlon traded away, the Clippers are still left with eight as they move toward their Aug. 24 training camp. Four are defenceman — Kaldis, Ed Hookenson, Ryan Coghlan and Kale Bennett, while the other four are forwards Rempal,

Jacob Hanlon, pictured, and Anthony Rinaldi have been traded from the Nanaimo Clippers to the Kingston Voyageurs of the Ontario Junior Hockey League. [FILE PHOTO]

Brosseau, Corey Renwick and Ryan Forbes. In total, 12 players from last year’s roster are due back while eight are new to the team. Last year, Rinaldi was seventh

in Clippers scoring with 22 goals and 16 assists, while Hanlon had 33 points playing in Nanaimo’s bottom six. Rinaldi only played one season with the Clippers and Hanlon

played two. Hanlon is from Ontario and Rinaldi is from Quebec, meaning both will be playing closer to home. Hoover comes to the Clippers already committed to play NCAA Div. I hockey next season for the Canisius College Golden Griffins. At five-foot-11 and 180 pounds, he had 10 goals and 14 assists with the Voyageurs in 47 regular season games and had seven points during his team’s 21-game run to the OJHL final. The Clippers also received in a July 9 trade with Kingston 19-year-old American defenceman Jaylon Gorman in exchange for future considerations. The Clippers begin pre-season play Aug. 29 in Port Alberni with their first of two home exhibition games being on Sept. 2 at Frank Crane Arena. Their home opener is on Sept. 18 against the Victoria Grizzlies as the Clippers begin their defence of the Island Division championship. Scott.McKenzie @nanaimodailynews.com 250-729-4243

Raiders add top defence prospect Stevens DAILY NEWS

With three days remaining before their biggest game of the season so far, the Vancouver Island Raiders have scored perhaps the top recruiting coup the province has to offer. The Raiders, who host the Okanagan Sun Saturday in a battle of the only two unbeaten

STEVENS

B.C. Football Conference teams, announced Wednesday night they have signed linebacker Isaiah Stevens of the powerhouse Terry Fox Ravens high school program. Last season, in his senior year at Terry Fox, Stevens was named the Varsity AAA defensive player of the year at the annual B.C. High School Football awards

ceremony. He had originally committed to play for the UBC Thunderbirds, but will now play for the Raiders. The addition of Stevens means the Raiders, under head coach Jerome Erdman, have signed both the Varsity AA and AAA defensive players of the year from 2014 with Nanaimo’s Cole Virtanen already on the team.

JOSHUA CLIPPERTON THE CANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — The B.C. Lions took a long look in the mirror this week. Coming off a pair of performances where they jumped out to early leads only to falter badly in demoralizing losses, a measure of inner reflection was needed before getting back on the practice field. “There was a lot of soul searching to make sure that we’re together,” said Lions head coach Jeff Tedford. “The guys have been really close and working really hard and pushing one another and are really excited to have another opportunity.” That opportunity comes Thursday when the Lions (2-3) host the red-hot Edmonton Eskimos (4-1) to kick off Week 7 of the CFL season. B.C. jumped out to an early 7-0 lead last Thursday on the road against the Winnipeg Blue Bombers thanks to a methodical 14-play, 95-yard touchdown drive, but managed just six points the rest of the way in a 23-13 loss. That defeat came on the heels of stunning collapse on July 24 when the Lions led 21-0 at home against Toronto, only to see the advantage evaporate in a 30-27 Argonauts victory. The Lions have still yet to put together four solid quarters this season — their only two victories are over the winless Saskatchewan Roughriders — and know they need a much better effort to have a chance of stopping an Edmonton team that has won four straight by an average of 23.5 points.

JOSHUA CLIPPERTON THE CANADIAN PRESS

VANCOUVER — Lamar Neagle scored in the 72nd minute Wednesday as the Seattle Sounders tied the Vancouver Whitecaps 1-1 in the CONCACAF Champions League. Tim Parker replied for the Whitecaps as both clubs opened up play in Group F with a single point. Neagle’s goal came off a Seattle free kick that looped PARKER over the Vancouver penalty area to Andy Rose on the right. Parker had given the Whitecaps the lead 11 minutes earlier with a beautiful glancing backheel flick off a Pedro Morales corner that beat a helpless Troy Perkins to the far post in the Seattle goal. The breakthrough came moments after Vancouver got its first shot of any kind in the match, a good effort from Erik Hurtado on a ball over the top that Perkins did well to save. The Whitecaps fielded an entirely different starting 11 from Saturday’s impressive 3-0 road victory over Seattle in Major League Soccer, while the Sounders made eight changes. There was lack of cohesion showed by each team’s mostly youthful units for the first twothirds of the match — especially Vancouver — and Parker’s goal sparked the crowd at B.C. Place Stadium.

outh played three rounds hearts ruffing with the nine spades. The spade jack was successfully passed when West declined to cover and was followed by the ace and king which drew trump. Two clubs were parked on the heart winners and the ace of diamonds was driven out, N-S +480. Whenheartsbroke3-3,itwas convenient to finesse West for the queen of spades retaining the king as an entry to dummy. If West had covered the jack, South would draw trump by playing the king, ace and the four to the eight-spot. A club lead would jeopardize the contract. In this scenario, the defense would score four tricks when declarer loses a trump finesse. Suppose that South wins the ace of clubs and plays three rounds of hearts ruffing with the nine. He could then cash the ace and king of spades preserving the four-spot and relying upon a 3- 2 break. If the queen does not fall, he continues with a heart winner disposing of a club to earn ten tricks. When the queen drops, he draws the last trump with dummy’s eight-spot to record another twelve tricks. 3NT would have been the likely destination if South had opened 1NT. North will transfer to hearts and rebid 3NT.

DEATHS

COOK, Robert Gregory (a.k.a. Captain Cook) February 12, 1930 - July 19, 2015 It is with deep sadness we announce the passing of Bob Cook. He passed away peacefully on Sunday July 19, 2015, at Nanaimo Regional General Hospital at 85 years of age. Born on February 12, 1930 in Edmonton, Alberta, he moved to Nanaimo in 1979 and was a proud member of the local business community for many years (Captain Cook Building Supplies.) The last 18 years of his life were happily spent on Mudge Island, B.C. He will be sadly missed by his family and his many friends. No services will be held as Bob donated his remains to UBC Medical School. A private gathering will be held at a later date.

FISCHER Beverly Amy Bev Fischer, 78, of Nanaimo, BC, passed away in her home at Nanaimo Seniors Village on Friday, July 24th, 2015. Bev was born in 1937 in Hamiota, Manitoba. Her family moved to Vancouver where Bev lived until she met her future husband, Al Fischer, who was in the Royal Canadian Air Force. They were married in Vancouver, and they enjoyed the next 25 years together living in many places including Canada, the United States and Germany. They settled in Nanaimo where the family stayed. Bev had a career in banking and worked for the Bank of Montreal for the next 25 years. She retired as a branch manager and enjoyed many years “snowbirdingâ€? to Arizona. She is survived by her husband of 60 years, Al Fischer; her children, Deborah, Robert and Patricia; siblings, Lorraine, Raymond and Patrick; grandchildren, Matthew (Nadia), Glen (Donna) and Jennifer (Craig); great grandchildren, Hunter and Everleigh and many nieces and nephews. The family is deeply grateful for the excellent care Bev received from all of the employees of Nanaimo Senior’s Village for the five years she was there, and especially for the care received in her last days. Thank you‌ In lieu of flowers, donations in Bev’s name to The Kidney Foundation of Canada would be appreciated. At Bev’s request, there will be no service; however the family will have a special gathering soon to celebrate her life. “Mom‌our hearts ache because you are gone. We love you and will always miss you‌but we do find some comfort in knowing you are no longer suffering‌â€?

N

ot much has gone according to plan this season for Corey Chamblin and the Saskatchewan Roughriders. The Riders (0-6) are last in the West Division and remain the CFL’s only winless team. That’s created much speculation regarding the future of Chamblin, who led Saskatchewan to the 2013 Grey Cup title, but has also forced the club to alter its plans regarding the development of its younger players. This week, Chamblin announced veteran receiver Jamel Richardson, 33, was no longer with the team and it was time to give some younger players the chance to play. “When you’re 0-6, it’s time to see what you have,” Chamblin told reporters. “Our plan was the vets hold us in the first nine (games of season) and let those rookies get a chance to grow. “Well, it came a little earlier than the first nine.” Richardson re-signed with Saskatchewan this off-season after missing roughly 18 months recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament and lateral collateral ligament in his left knee suffered in 2013 with the Montreal Alouettes. The six-foot-five, 215-pound Richardson began his CFL career with the Riders, playing four seasons with them before heading to the Dallas Cowboys’ training camp in 2007. Richardson returned to the CFL the following season with the Als, helping them win con-

Seahawks active star safety Earl Thomas The Seattle Seahawks have activated All-Pro free safety Earl Thomas from the physically unable to perform list, raising hopes he’ll be ready for the regular-season opener. Seattle announced Thomas had passed his physical and been added to the active roster following practice on Wednesday. Thomas started training camp on the PUP list after undergoing off-season surgery to repair the labrum in his left shoulder. Thomas was initially hurt in the NFC championship game but played in the Super Bowl with the injury. He underwent surgery shortly after the Super Bowl and was expected to be ready near the start of the season.

secutive Grey Cups (2009-10) and being named the MVP of the second championship contest. Richardson had a league-record 12 100-yard games in 2011 when he registered 112 catches for 1,777 yards (tops among receivers) with 11 TDs. This season, Richardson has 19 catches for 266 yards and no TDs. The Riders are on the road Saturday night visiting the Toronto Argonauts (3-2), who’ll play their first game at Rogers Centre this season. Injuries to veterans Darian Durant and Kevin Glenn have left the Riders with rookie Brett Smith at quarterback. Smith was 17-of-27 passing for 144 yards with two interceptions in his CFL debut, a 30-5 road loss last week to the Edmonton Eskimos (4-1). Edmonton’s Matt Nichols was 27-of-39 passing for 300 yards and two TD strikes versus a Saskatchewan defence ranked last

in points allowed (32.5 per game) and second-last in passing yards (286.3). Toronto boasts the CFL’s top aerial attack (313.2 yards per game). Quarterback Trevor Harris threw for 326 yards and a TD (giving him a league-high 12 on the season) in the Argos’ 34-18 road loss to the Hamilton TigerCats on Monday night. Harris has completed 133-of-179 passes (74.3 per cent) for 1,503 yards this season to stand second only to Calgary’s Bo Levi Mitchell (1,622). Pick — Toronto Edmonton Eskimos at B.C. Lions Cornerback Pat Watkins was a one-man show against Saskatchewan with two interceptions (one returned for a TD), a sack and team-high five tackles. Edmonton’s defence leads the CFL in sacks (17) and fewest points allowed (12.6). Andrew Harris has run for a league-high 401

Montreal Alouettes at Ottawa Redblacks Ottawa (3-2) hasn’t played since upsetting Calgary 29-26 on July 24. Quarterback Henry Burris threw for 389 yards and three TDs in that game and receiver Chris Williams had seven catches for 162 yards and a touchdown. The Redblacks won the first meeting of the season 20-16 as Montreal (2-3) lost both starter Jonathan Crompton and backup Dan LeFevour to injury, forcing Canadian Brandon Bridge to finish. But rookie Rakeem Cato is the Alouettes’ starter now. Pick — Montreal Winnipeg Blue Bombers at Hamilton Tiger-Cats Hamilton (3-2) is a stellar 8-0 at Tim Hortons Field. Zach Collaros threw three TD strikes versus Toronto while the Ticats’ defence forced five turnovers — including two big third-down gambles — and Brandon Stewart scored after recovering an onside punt. Drew Willy threw two touchdown passes as Winnipeg (3-3) defeated B.C. 23-13 for its first win in three games. Darvin Adams was a favourite target with four catches for 127 yards and a touchdown.

Spieth, Zach Johnson to tee off at World Golf Championship THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

AKRON, Ohio — Jordan Spieth gets to play with Zach Johnson one tournament too late. When last seen on the golf course, Spieth missed out on a three-man playoff at the British Open that ended his bid for a Grand Slam. He came back out and watched from the steps of the Royal & Ancient clubhouse at St. Andrews as Johnson, a good friend, won the claret jug. The only players to win majors this year will be paired Thursday when the Bridgestone Invitational begins at Firestone. The World Golf Championship event offers big money, free FedEx Cup points and for some of the 77 players in the field, a chance to make sure their games are in shape for the PGA Championship the following week in Wisconsin. Spieth and Johnson are coming off three-week breaks, both taking time off to celebrate after getting back from St. Andrews. Johnson hasn’t let the silver claret jug out of his sight, though golf’s oldest trophy has been put to good use. “We’ve had wine in there. We’ve had champagne in there, obviously some beer in there and that kind of stuff,” he said. “My

SPIETH

kids drank water out of it. They thought that was pretty cool. I did have a corn on the cob in it.” Corn on the cob? Indeed, he posted a photo on Twitter over the weekend of a corn cob in the jug as he pretends to take a bite. He figured it was only fitting since Johnson still sees himself as a regular guy from Cedar Rapids, Iowa. “I did have a corn on the cob in it. I did not eat the corn on the cob out of it,” Johnson said Tuesday. “It was just a picture because I am from the state of Iowa. . . . I thought it would be a cool little picture, and I’m telling you, the Iowa folk, the Midwest folk in general, thought it was pretty awesome.” Spieth’s celebration was more personal. He turned 22 last week.

It’s a peculiar friendship if it were based strictly on age. Johnson’s wife reminded him recently that at 39, the two-time major champion is nearly old enough to be Spieth’s father. They spent time together late in 2013 during Spieth’s rookie season and have a few friends in the same circle that keep them connected. Spieth surprised Johnson by living up to his word even as his fame grew. He had told Johnson after winning the Masters that he would take part in his charity event ahead of the John Deere Classic. And then he won the U.S. Open that put him halfway home to the Grand Slam. Spieth still showed up at the charity event, and the John Deere Classic, which he won for his fourth title this year. “What he did, and honouring his commitment, is beyond classy and just goes to show once again how much he truly gets it,” Johnson said. “He didn’t have to do it, but maybe he thought it was in his best interests, too.” The Bridgestone Invitational will be missing its defending champion for the first time since 2008 when Tiger Woods was recuperating from knee surgery. Rory McIlroy won last year during his summer trifecta — British Open, Bridgestone, PGA Championship.

Stay calm, work out deal to pay back father Kathy Mitchell & Marcy Sugar Annie’s Mailbox Dear Annie: I had my high school graduation party at a local restaurant (because our house is too small). My father claimed he was unable to pay for it, and insisted I cover the bill, close to $1,100, saying he will pay me back later. I realize that my parents’ business sometimes goes through hard times, but Dad still manages to eat out frequently. He’s terrible with money, and I am not sure he will ever pay me back. I told him that I expect complete repayment by the middle of August and if I don’t get it, I’ll start selling his vast collection of unused musical instruments. He doesn’t believe me.

I am paying for my first year of college through grants, scholarships, my savings and the money I earn from my job. I never expected anything from my parents because I know they can’t afford much. But I had no idea I was going to get stuck with the bill for the party. What do I do? — Farmer’s Daughter Dear Daughter: Let’s not turn this into a major conflagration. Dad should not have stuck you with a bill for a party neither of you could afford. But selling his musical instruments isn’t the answer, either. Try to remain calm and work out a payment plan with Dad, in writing, with the amount he needs to pay each week until an agreed-upon total is reached. It may take longer than mid-August, and you might also consider paying for part of the bill because the party was for you. But it’s better than the all-out war you are contemplating. We also suggest you involve your mother in this transaction since

she, too, has a say in the family finances and may bring a more level head to the discussion. Dear Annie: My husband’s parents live several states away. They are both in poor health, one worse than the other. I fear that when one passes away, my husband will want us to move and take care of the other one. We have two young children and this would involve us leaving our jobs. When we visit, I am miserable the entire time and have no desire to move. We could not ask the remaining parent to move, either, because they both have jobs, as well. Our marriage is struggling right now, so living in separate states would not help us repair our problems. And then there’s the fact that I would want my husband to do this for my parents. So how can I deny him this? — Unhappy Wife Dear Unhappy: In all fairness, you cannot. Taking care of one set of parents means a willingness to take care of both. But it

doesn’t necessarily mean moving across the country. If the parents are near retirement age, it makes just as much sense for them to relocate where your jobs are, instead of vice versa, and where family is already established to help in their care. You and your husband should have this conversation now and talk about realistic alternatives, including retirement or assisted living communities nearby, and the type of medical facilities and senior assistance in the area. If the two of you cannot reach agreement, we recommend asking an unbiased, third party to act as a mediator.

HOROSCOPE by Jacqueline Bigar ARIES (March 21-April 19) You might feel awkward in a conversation with a dear friend when you reveal a certain amount of knowledge about a situation that he or she is unaware of. Avoid revealing your opinions; just state the facts. Tonight: Make it your treat. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You have what others lack, and your energy remains high. Where you choose to direct your focus might surprise some people. You might be more concerned about a family matter than you let on. Tonight: Share a special wish. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Go within yourself to get the answers you want. Sometimes, playing it low-key is crucial. Do a better job of listening and getting to the bottom of a problem. What you hear could trigger a lot of thoughts. Tonight: Not to be found. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Meetings will point you toward the path for fulfilling a long-term goal. Avoid discouraging a loved one who is feeling a bit off, as this person might have difficulty anchoring in. Tonight: Get some errands done first. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You might want to make an effort to get past someone’s resistance. This person seems to have control over you, or perhaps you feel as if you need to answer to him or her. Know that you can do what you want. Tonight: Out late. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Don’t hesitate to seek out someone who is relatively tuned in to your lifestyle. Though you don’t want to get involved in a problem, you might find yourself in one anyway. Honor a change of pace. Tonight: Be more forthright. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Be aware of the role money plays in your mind. You will be able to get past this issue if you can recognize why it is so important. Honor a change of plans, even if you are skeptical about it. Tonight: Listen to a family member. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You could be in a situation where you will need to reach out to your friends for help. Your efforts will make a difference. You have a way of drawing others in. Nevertheless, the interactions can be difficult. Tonight: Say “yes” to living it up! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your even pace helps get the job done. A friend could make a strong point that affects your thoughts about your home life. Know that you might be taking a negative slant on nearly everything. It is simply a phase. Tonight: Take a walk. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Remain playful and creative with someone who tends to be too serious and withdrawn. Know that you do make a difference, but you must work with others’ energy levels. Reach out to a close friend. Tonight: Add more fun into your day.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Understand where someone else is coming from. It might be difficult to identify with this person, as you come from such different backgrounds. An older friend might want some distance. Make this OK for now. Tonight: Mosey on home. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You could make an error or wish someone had done something differently. You also recognize that you can’t change the situation. Understand that others do care what happens. Tonight: Catch up on a friend’s news. YOUR BIRTHDAY(Aug. 6) This year you make waves just by being yourself. You have a tendency to get stuck in situations that are reflective of a fixed attitude. Sometimes even your own thoughts contradict each other. If you are single, when dating, these conflicting perspectives will emerge in your interactions. Some people love your diversity; others might be scared off by it. Choose the person who supports your authenticity. If you are attached, the two of have been working toward making a major purchase that could affect the quality of your life.
