Chevron says most oil was collected Latest figures reveal 10,000 litres has leached into the ground Jennifer Moreau staff reporter

More than 10,000 litres of oily material has leached into the ground in and around Chevron’s north Burnaby refinery since spring, according to the company’s estimates – that’s roughly the equivalent of 68 barrels. The vast majority of that has been recovered, according to company spokesperson Sean Comey. Chevron first discovered a mix of gas, diesel and crude migrating offsite on April 21 during a routine inspection. The oil is showing up in a ditch beside the railroad tracks and on the beach below. The company has not been able to pinpoint a source, but it appears the seep is the result of years of contaminants building up on the property, now being carried offsite through the groundwater. In all, about 10,816 litres have seeped into the ground, but most of that – 10,000 litres – was recovered through a series of extraction wells on the refinery property. The wells are set up to catch the material before it migrates offsite. There are still 816 litres which have migrated offsite, but 800 litres of that have been recovered from the ditch, and Oil Page 8

Calls cut: Hollie Hall of the Pacific Post Partum Support Society offers counselling over the phone for moms dealing with postpartum depression. The Burnaby-based group is struggling financially and has had to cut back services while demand increases.

Services reduced for new moms Jennifer Moreau

staff reporter

A Burnaby-based group that helps moms struggling with postpartum depression has clawed back services following cuts to the organization’s core funding. “We are concerned for our existence at this point,” said Manasi Vadhera from the Pacific Post Partum Support Society. “We have the resources, we have the motivation, we have an increasing demand for services, but unfortunately we’re not able to have the funding.” The society has headquarters in Burnaby, but helps women all over the Lower

Mainland. The organization offers support groups for new moms in Burnaby, Vancouver, Richmond, North Vancouver and Port Coquitlam and counselling over the phone throughout the year, as well as help for husbands or partners of women with postpartum depression. Vadhera said the society lost its 20-year long-term core funding in 2010, which represents about 25 per cent of overall funding. As a result, the society had to cut the Burnaby support group last November. They also have to cut back on telephone support hours substantially and limit their public education talks with new moms,

thanks to the cuts. In 2010, the society took about 100 calls from women in Burnaby alone. “At this point, the services should be expanding. Unfortunately, instead of us being able to reach out to new moms or have our staff do more community support work, we are struggling to survive,” Vadhera said. “We don’t know of any other organization that provides this constant support and holds these women’s hands in such a personal way. And we also have 40 years of experience at it.” The support groups, which help a maximum of eight women at any given time, are Support Page 8

ELECTION 2011

Redman, Lee will run again Jennifer Moreau staff reporter

If the Liberals were to call a snap election, Richard Lee would run for re-election, but the Burnaby North MLA doesn’t expect British Columbians will be called to the polls anytime soon. “I don’t think there would be a snap provincial election. If there is one, I am most likely (to) seek re-election,” he said. The next election should be in 2013, unless the Liberals, now in the midst of their own leadership race, hold a snap election, (which candidate Christy Clark has hinted at). “It is still more than two years from the next provincial election. Many things can happen in two years,” Lee said. “Individual situation, family situation and political situation can affect my plan to run in the next provincial election in two years.” Another four-year term would require a strong commitment, Lee pointed out. “I need support from my family, the community and constituents in general. I do appreciate the supports I have had so far but I have never taken these supports for granted,” he said. Lee is one of two elected Liberals in Burnaby. Besides Burnaby Lougheed MLA Harry Bloy – all other elected positions, including city council and school board – are held by New Democrats. In mid-December, the Liberals were polling ahead of the NDP, for the first time since the harmonized sales tax was introduced, according to a survey by the Mustel Group. The Liberals garnered 41 per cent of voter support while the NDP held 36. Allan Zdunic, president of the Burnaby North NDP riding association, said no one has officially come forward to run on behalf of the New Democrats in Burnaby-North, although Mondee Redman told the NOW she’s interested. “I’m definitely running and looking forward to it again,” she said. “I had a lot of support in the last election.” Redman said she would have won had the electorate known about the HST ahead of time and that she also doesn’t expect a snap election. The Burnaby North riding used to be an NDP stronghold until 2001, when Lee got in on the Liberal landslide. He beat New Democrat Pietro Calendino by 5,070 votes. But in 2005, the gap narrowed to just 65 ballots.

Companionship: Sister Glynnis pets Prissy, the foster cat at the De Sales Deaf Catholic Centre. Prissy came to the centre

through the Action for Animals in Distress Society’s foster program, which pairs older cats and small animals with seniors in the community. The society covers the pets’ expenses and keeps tabs on the animals.

If cats could retire

Unique program helps match senior citizens with homeless senior cats – at no cost to the foster owner Andrew Fleming staff reporter

The twilight years can be difficult in many ways but for animal lovers in particular. Seniors used to sharing their lives with cats or dogs can often be reluctant to take on the renewed responsibility of pet ownership due to living on a fixed income or out of concern that their fourlegged friends may outlive them. Nikki Forbes, director of Action for Animals in Distress Society, has come up with a solution. The Burnaby-based non-profit specializing in abandoned cats and other small animals has created a no-stringsattached foster program where seniors can adopt older, unwanted animals and not have to worry about either the bills or their pet’s future. “I meet seniors at local events all the time and they say to me ‘Oh I love kitties, but I’m too old now,’ but it’s really got nothing to do with being too old,” said

Forbes. “It’s about ‘what ifs’ as in what have the income or the budget for vet if I can’t carry heavy bags of litter up the bills and food’ and she said oh no, we stairs, what if I can’t pay vet bills, what if have a fostering program that will take care of that.

She’s just amazing and lets deaf three-year-olds play with her, and she’s even learned some sign language.” Studies have shown that having animals around can have a positive effect on a person’s heart rate and blood pressure, while the caring for the animal provides therapeutic exercise or movement that can improve cognitive and motor skills. Loneliness or depression may also rob energy from those who are housebound or have been hospitalized for long periods, and pet ownership is a natural way to combat these conditions. Action for Animals also make sure the animals are well taken care of. “The group also checks in on the pets once a week as they make their deliveries, which not only enables them to make sure the animals are getting the care they need, it can also be an important social link to the outside world for some seniors as well,” said volunteer Kristin Schumacher. “And if the litter box hasn’t been cleaned or Fluffy is all matted up, we can help out or make the suggestion that we take her in to be groomed.”

OUR VIEW

tains and the ocean really justify these prices? They’re worth a premium, but not what we’re paying. In Britain, the thinking about price escalation is changing. British Housing Minister Grant Shapps told The Observer on Jan. 1 that dramatic property price increases cause “enormous pain” for those not yet in the market. “I think it is horrendous that a firsttime buyer would need to be 36 on average if they do not have the support of mum and dad,” Shapps said. “The main

thing everyone requires for their subsistence is a roof over their head and when that basic human need becomes too expensive for average citizens to afford, something is out of kilter.” He’s right. We don’t celebrate rising car prices or increasing food and heating costs. A modest home is a necessity and should be within reach of responsible people.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR How do fees help those in need? Dear Editor:

Re: User fees help cover costs, Burnaby NOW, Jan. 5. Let me start by telling Mr. McGowan that I agree wholeheartedly with him about helping the less fortunate in our community. Yes, when it comes to help those in need, we should all come together and pull our sleeves up. Having said that, I must confess that I don’t quite understand how supporting the existing fees or the implementation of user fees on public facilities will help said people. In my opinion, the government should make these facilities available free of charge so that everyone in the community can make use of. Mr McGowan, you say that if we think there shouldn’t be user fees, we then should be prepared to pay higher taxes. A percentage of our taxes already goes towards the upkeep of these facilities, and I strongly

Dear Editor:

I don’t know how much it originally cost to build B.C.’s big hydro dams in the ’60s and ’70s, but I would hate to imagine what it would cost to build them at today’s construction costs with today’s tough environmental and safety standards. Just to renovate these hydro dams is going to cost $6 billion over the next few years. Dams Page 7

Support: Group helps women deal with postpartum depression continued from page 1

always full, and the Vancouver support group has a long wait list, Vadhera said. Vadhera is not aware of any other support for moms with postpartum depression in Burnaby, besides what her society is offering. The society started in 1971 as a grassroots initiative and has been helping women for nearly 40 years. The cut funding was coming from the Ministry of Children and Family Development, and Vancouver Coastal Health. Postpartum depression affects about one in five women who have given birth, but Vadhera said that figure is likely low because it often goes undiagnosed. According to the Canadian Mental Health Association, women with postpartum depression can feel inadequate, anxious, tired, guilty and irritable. They may cry a lot or feel physical symptoms,

such as headaches, numbness, chest pains and hyperventilation. Moms may feel ambivalent or disinterested towards their new babies, which can undermine how they bond with their children. Postpartum depression can start any time and may last up to several months or a year. The cause is unknown, but changing hormone levels could be a factor. “It’s a very delicate phase in these women’s lives,” Vadhera said. “This is a time women really hold each others’ hands.” Postpartum depression also affects the child’s development, she added. “If you are depressed, you can’t really relate to your child much,” she said, adding the happier the moms are the better they’re able to bond with their babies. For more information, see the website at www.postpartum.org. jmoreau@burnabynow.com

Oil: ‘It’s too much,’ resident says continued from page 1

most of the 16 litres that have shown up on the beach has also been cleaned up. The company’s estimates cover the period from April 21 to the end of November for the ditch and the beach, and from April 21 to Dec. 8 in respect to the extraction wells. Comey said the amount of oil found in the ditch has decreased, from about 3.8 litres a day to half a litre, and that the decrease was noted towards the end of October. On average, between five to seven tablespoons of oily material is showing up on the beach daily. The company posted the information online Jan. 5, shortly after four of Chevron’s community advisory panel members walked out on the group in protest over the handling of the leak. The quantity of oil was something the residents felt they

had been misled on. Judi Marshall, one of the disgruntled residents, pointed out that the figures are rough estimates. “I think that kind of says it all,” she said. “Any time you are dealing with something that is a rough estimate, it can go either way.” Marshall also had concerns that the wells are spaced out, and oil could be getting through between them. And even if the amount of oil seems low on the beach (five to seven tablespoons daily), she added, there are areas on the foreshore where contamination exceeds provincial standards. “It doesn’t matter how much Chevron says is there. It’s too much because it’s beyond the contaminated sites regulation. They are trying to downplay it, but it’s over the provincial limit,” she said.

Don’t forget the food bank Andrew Fleming staff reporter

The Greater Vancouver Food Bank Society wants to remind people that Christmas isn’t the only time of year to be generous. “This is the time of year where we raise 80 to 85 per cent of our annual donations, so it’s not something that would just last for the holidays, it hopefully lasts for most of the rest of the year,” said society spokesperson Fareedah Rasoul Kim. “This is why there is such a push at this time of year. We are also 20 per cent down in food donations from last year, and we’ve seen a 10 per cent increase in clients.” The month of December is so important to the charity, which helps feed needy people in Burnaby, New Westminster, the North Shore and Vancouver, that they call their summer food drive “Christmas in July” as a subtle reminder that the spirit of giving is something that is always appreciated, not just during the holidays.

Kim said the recent media attention that food banks are struggling this year more so than normal has prompted a sudden and welcome spike in donations. “A group called the Westside Builders heard of our appeals on the news, and they got a whole bunch of construction companies in that area together and raised $14,000,” Rasoul Kim said. “They then went to Costco a few days ago and bought pallets and pallets of food.” According to a report by Food Banks Canada, food bank usage is up five per cent in British Columbia from 2008, with seniors accounting for 6.2 per cent of those helped and children almost 30 per cent. The child poverty rate in British Columbia is still the highest in the country for the sixth year in a row. Donations of non-perishable foods can be made at a variety of Burnaby grocery stores including Buy Low, Extra Foods, IGA, Price Smart Foods, Safeway, SaveOn-Foods and Superstore. Check out www.foodbank.bc.ca.

Policing: RCMP is ‘modernizing’ continued from page 9

with the premise the RCMP is broken, saying the fact an oversight board is being planned is a sign the RCMP is interested in moving forward. “I think this shows we are transparent and open and committed to change,” said Taylor. “I don’t believe the RCMP is as broken as some people and the

media would like people to believe. … I believe the RCMP has responded with better accountability, and it shows we’re evolving and taking seriously any public concerns.” The suggestion from the federally appointed Reform Implementation Council would see a board with a mandate spelled out in legislation that “would be

a major asset in resolving issues or heading them off before they boil over.” Public Safety Minister Vic Toews said in a media statement on Jan. 5 that he would “carefully consider the advice of the council to determine how best to support the RCMP in continuing its process of modernizing.” – with files from Postmedia

A former madam is sharing her story in hopes of helping to save those working in the sex trade

Larry Wright/burnaby now

A new life: Tania Fiolleau is a former madam who’s sharing her story in a new book, Souled Out!. Proceeds from its sales will help with awareness and prevention efforts for sex trade workers. and write a book and help save the women who are in prostitution,” said Fiolleau. And that’s what Fiolleau did, spending the next two years writing Souled Out!, which she finally completed in October 2010. n her book, Fiolleau tells of her experience in what she calls “a sick world, full of

broken dreams and empty promises, battered, shattered, sexually abused women, men and children. … (The sex industry) is causing alarming divorce rates, teen pregnancies, STDs-AIDS, drug usage, not to mention altered views of what sex really means.” Fiolleau said proceeds of the book don’t go to her, but rather

will go back into raising awareness and doing prevention for sexually exploited women and children and human traffic victims. And if there is one overarching thought that Fiolleau wants to leave with people, it’s in a statement on her website, www. savethewomen.ca: Sex trade Page 12

A12 • Saturday, January 8, 2011 • Burnaby NOW

The sex trade in statistics Tania Fiolleau has recently released Souled Out!, a book detailing her life as a former sex trade worker and madam. Here are some of the figures she cites from her research into prostitution: ◆ Average age of entry: 14 to 16 years old ◆ Average years in prostitution: 21 ◆ Per cent younger than age 18 at entry: 44 per cent ◆ Percentage of sex trade workers threatened with a weapon: 78 per cent ◆ Percentage of sex trade workers physically assaulted: 82 per cent ◆ Percentage of sex trade workers raped: 82 per cent ◆ Percentage of sex trade workers raped more than five times: 73 per cent ◆ Percentage of sex trade workers who are currently or who have been homeless: 84 per cent

◆ Percentage of sex trade workers who, as children, were hit or beaten by a caregiver until injured or bruised: 49 per cent ◆ Percentage of sex trade workers who were sexually abused as a child: 65 to 95 per cent ◆ Diagnosis of post-traumatic stress disorder in Canada due to prostitution: 76 per cent Drug and alcohol use amongst sex trade workers: ◆ Drugs: 78 per cent ◆ Alcohol: 36 per cent Answers of sex trade workers when asked: “What do you need?” ◆ Would leave prostitution: 87 per cent ◆ Home or safe place: 78 per cent ◆ Job training: 73 per cent ◆ Health care: 58 per cent ◆ Peer support: 60 per cent

◆ Legal assistance: 42 per cent ◆ Alcohol and drug treatment: 77 per cent ◆ Self-defence training: 49 per cent ◆ Physical protection from pimp: 28 per cent* ◆ Individual counselling: 58 per cent* Note: In the latter two cases, Fiolleau said the actual numbers are likely much higher. She notes that most women will not say that they need protection, because they are mentally still “in love” and in denial that the pimp will come and look for them. She believes the percentage is as high as 80 per cent, from her experience of knowing what the pimps are capable of. She also says most women are in denial of the fact that they need counselling, and avoid it by doing drugs and drinking. She believes the 58 per cent counselling figure is much higher, closer to 85 per cent.

Sex trade: Former madam calls for awareness continued from page 11

“Please do not judge these girls/ men any longer that are in the sex industry. Know that most of them are being ‘forced’ to do it, physically or mentally, by manipulation of people around them. “Please open your eyes and see that we are all being lied to – that most of these girls do not like what

they are doing and that it is all ‘acting.’ “It could be your sister, your mother, your best friend’s girl or even your daughter – and then think, is it all really worth the ‘thrill’ of self-gratification that lasts only a couple minutes? You are destroying lives of countless women while you do it – feeding the monster the sex

industry has become. And now you are part of it too … for there must be enablers to create victims. “Be part of my campaign to help educate these women, clients and the public. If we can just save even one life, it was all worth it.” For more information, or to order Souled Out!, go to www. savethewomen.ca.

Christmas kettles a big success Andrew Fleming staff reporter

Despite the current tough economic climate, Canadians still managed to dig deep into their pockets for the Salvation Army’s annual Christmas kettle campaign. So far, the charity says they’ve collected more than $18 million from the nearly 2,000 kettles on street corners and at retail outlets nationwide from midNovember to Christmas Eve, and Burnaby played a significant part. “It was a good year for us, that’s for sure,” said local Sally Ann spokesperson Capt. David MacPherson. “We had around 200 people, some volunteers and others who were paid, at 50 kettles (in the local area), … and we brought in $319,000. Our final count isn’t actually completed yet because some people donated by cheque, and they’re still coming in.” The $18-million mark matches the amount raised in 2009, at the time of a new fundraising record for the charity, which provides assistance to an estimated 1.6 million Canadians each year. “The fact that we have exceeded our goal is

remarkable and shows that the true spirit of generosity is alive and well in the Canada. We’re humbled that so many heeded the call to help their neighbors in need,” said Commissioner William Francis, territorial commander for the

Salvation Army in Canada, in a prepared statement. “I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who donated, to the thousands of bell-ringers who stood for countless hours at kettles across this vast nation, and I would like to express

my sincere gratitude to all the malls, retail chains and stores that welcomed us in this Christmas.” This year also saw the debut of a new website, www.FilltheKettle.com., that enabled donors to give online.

Board of trade turns 100 Janaya Fuller-Evans staff reporter

It started with a small group of business owners, concerned about issues such as reckless carriage drivers, banding together on Dec. 10, 1910. Today, the Burnaby Board of Trade has 1,100 members – membership has more than tripled since 2005 – and focuses on issues such as homelessness, new immigrants, sustainability and early childhood education. “We’ve always been invested in advocacy,” says Darlene Gering, the board’s president and CEO. As for the growth the board has achieved in recent years, she says, “I think we’ve evolved with the city.” The Burnaby Board of Trade is unique, she says, in that it promotes a triple bottom line for member businesses, which are encouraged to meet economic, environmental and social responsibility targets. That has attracted new members even during the economic downturn, when other boards and chambers of commerce were struggling, Gering says. “Businesses really want to do the right thing,” she

says of the social and environmental goals of the board. “They want to be shown what role they can play.” The board formed a social development committee in 2007, as well as an environmental sustainability task force. The board is also behind Burnaby’s homelessness task force and had a policy resolution for a federal homelessness plan passed by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce last fall. “We really made a name for ourselves,” Gering says, regarding the board’s initiatives. “We’ve caught the attention of other boards.” Other boards of trade and chambers of commerce are curious about the board’s advocacy work, and some are starting down the same path, she says. As for what the future holds, the board hopes to expand to 1,500 members. Currently, about 30 per cent of members are businesses located outside of Burnaby that do business within the city Gering says. The board is having a 100th anniversary celebration this Monday at the Michael J. Fox Theatre. “It showcases Burnaby’s talent and culture,” Gering

Mastery of emotions begins with new awareness I

n a recent column, I introduced the first step in my approach to meditation by asking the question, “What are you feeling?” and in answering, “Feel your breath,” how to still your mind with meditative breathing. From this perspective, you can gain awareness of your emotions without getting caught up in them, and at this point, we can question their source. The cause could lie in your physical state, your thoughts or your relationships. Do your feelings reflect your physical state? Insufficient sleep can make any of us feel drained, less motivated and even a little depressed. Medical conditions that can make you feel exhausted and depressed include diabetes, hypothyroidism, anemia, fibromyalgia, congestive heart failure, inflammatory arthritis, chronic pain, sleep disorders and atherosclerosis. Anemia, asthma attacks, cardiac arrhythmias and hypoglycemia can make you feel anxious and panicky. Your energy and emotional state can be affected by your diet. I always felt lethargic and sleepy after a dim sum lunch, bloated and unwell after fast food. Chemicals in the form of prescription medications, alcohol, street drugs, coffee, energy drinks and cigarettes can also mess with your emotions. Your emotions may be influenced by your environment. The nature and quality of lighting, air quality, and noise can affect energy, mood, stress and anxiety. Are your emotions a reflection of your thoughts? Is your emotional reaction based on a mistaken impression, assumptions or habits of thought? We often make assumptions about the motivations behind the behaviour of others. If we expect and think the worst, we will perceive it. We can take offence when none is intended. We may feel insulted when another’s statement may have been neutral or even positive. Negative expectations about a dreaded family gathering can be based on the past and the mutual assumptions family members hold when relating to one another. This often leads to self-fulfilling prophecies – we behave

major barrier to happiness. Success in all other areas in life is insufficient if you don’t feel valued, respected and loved by those who know you best. Unhappiness can arise from your relationship with your own life. You must

find meaning in what you do each day. Your actions – what you say and what you do – must be in alignment with what you value and believe in. By living your life mindfully and deliberately, you will enjoy the energy and enthusiasm

to seize each day. Mindful meditation can be the means to gain emotional awareness and with careful reflection, insight. With such insight, you may live more mindfully, attend to your body, your environment, your thoughts and

STRESS & ANXIETY Lower Seasonal Affective Disorder

By Dr. C. Hammoud, M.H., Ph.D.

! Recommended for its calming relief from chronic stress, anxiety, chronic fatigue, lack of motivation, inadequate feelings, compulsive disorders, eating disorders.!Helps to restore adrenal balance, mental well being. True evidence (Skeptics can call these people): ! For about 3 years I was stressed out. After starting #66 I’ m fine. I don’t get headaches anymore caused by stress. I’m more effective at work. I’m amazed. It changed my life around. Gerasimos Kallimikos, 25, Astoria, NY ! At times was completely non-functional. After taking 2 capsules within 1 hour “the fog had lifted”. I take some daily and had no relapse for 4 months. Maureen Lavallie, 67, Red Deer, AB ! No sedatives needed anymore. After taking #66 I felt a calm sense of being not #66 sedated as before but full of energy and able to cope balancing my many jobs, children, household and going to school. Highly recommended! Diane Lovato, 54, Norwalk, CA !I have tried other calming products. for 10 years. Bell #66 is the best. OwenA. Miller, 49, Rossiter, PA !Read the Bell website for many more testimonials and other important information.

Prevent COLDS & FLUS

The only cold medicine with a money-back guarantee. Four medical doctors that wrote in their book SHARK LIVER OIL that you can prevent colds and flus. Dr. Hubert wrote since his own high-school age children took shark liver oil they have no more colds. Dr. Haimes’s grandchildren have been taking shark liver oil for 6 months and he writes they have no more infection of any kind. Read on the Bell website: “I had 3-4 flus every winter. None #51 last 5 years.” “Amazing! All of us have no more colds.” “No more asthma, no puffer, no cold, no flus, changed my life”. In North America this is a by-product from the restaurant industry. No sharks are caught for their liver or their cartilage.

WRIST PAIN

Bell Carpal Tunnel Syndrome #30 gave quick relief within an hour. I was hand milking cows and began having weakness, numbness and pain shooting up my arms. Pain increased at night. My doctor suggested surgery as the only option. Not true! The pain and numbness are all gone after taking #30. I can do now whatever activity I want. Marjorie Wilson, 55, Dubuc, SK ! I’m a car mechanic. Holding tools was getting increasingly difficult because of wrist and tendon pain. After 2 weeks on #30 I’m fully productive #30 again. Cancelled scheduled surgery. William Marrero, 56, Miami, FL ! I was wearing wrist braces. A woman saw it and told me she had relief right away with #30. I got some same day. It worked for me as well. Thanks a million. Diane Frank, 49, North Battleford, SK ! I’m a nurse and work with my hands all day. I experienced increasing pain in my hands and fingers. Surgery was the only option I was told. My husband found #30 for me. I have no more pain or inflammation since. You have a life long customer. Nina Wallace, 52, Dacula, GA

ARTHRITIS Pain free in 2 weeks!

This is what happened to me personally. After suffering for years I desperately tried everything, drugs, natural products,physiotherapy, acupuncture, magnets and nothing was of any real help. Finally I had relief in 2 weeks by taking shark cartilage that was specially processed to preserve the natural active ingredients. This is the kind we are now promoting. I realized then that there are over 50 million men and women that are battling the same illness and getting treatments that are not working well, otherwise we would not have this ongoing huge health problem. In the last 10 years we have helped tens of thousands of men and women to have less pain or no pain at all. This is a by-product of the food industry. No sharks are caught because of their bones/cartilage. Nick A. Jerch, President We have real EVIDENCE that it works. On our web site you find over 100 testimonials with full names and towns. All 100% true. Skeptics may call them. Here are some #1 examples: ! Doctor suggested knee replacement after all his options failed with drugs and cortisone shots in knee and lower back. I recommend Bell Shark Cartilage to those millions suffering needlessly like I did for 40 years with arthritis in my knees. It's a shame that I was given drugs and injections all these years when a natural medicine could have spared me the endless torture day and night. Pat Laughlin, Coldwater, ON !My hip is 95% pain free. Pain killing drugs mask and Bell Shark Cartilage heals. Rebecca Hite, Oroville, CA!I tried another brand and pain came back. 2 weeks on Bell and pain is gone again. Gert Dupuis, Hanmer, ON!Cancelled knee replacement. I was in pain and limping. Have no more pain now. Can square dance for hours. Anton Melnychuk, Porcupine Plain, SK.!For 32 years I cried barrels of tears. Was in and out of hospitals costing society tens of thousands of dollars. I have taken many thousands of pills that nearly killed me. Finally 3 bottles of Bell Shark Cartilage costing less than $100 stopped a lifetime of suffering without side effects. Eleanor Sauson, Shigawake, QC!Others write: Can walk again for hours…Climb stairs without hanging on to railing…First time in 15 years can sleep at night…Rheumatoid pain in joints down 90%, same for my sister.

Nissan Leaf making automotive history David Chao and Bob McHugh

NOW contributors

t’s a historic automotive landmark: The first mass production zero-emission car sold in North America will be … the Nissan Leaf! Unlike a hybrid, the Leaf relies solely on its electric power source for propulsion. It can seat up to five adults and can be driven on a highway as well as in the city – just like a normal car. “Like many companies today, Nissan is seeking a more balanced relationship between people, vehicles and nature,” said Allen Childs, president of Nissan Canada. “The Nissan Leaf is a very strong step in that direction.” While Nissan sees its primary role as bringing new products to the market, in order for the electric vehicle to succeed and for production volumes to grow, key partnerships (governments, utility companies and other stakeholders) will be vital in the building of a viable charging station network, in order to move to a zeroemission society. The Leaf goes on sale through selected Nissan dealers in the U.S. later this year. The Canadian edition of Leaf, which will come with a special winter package that

includes heated seats and steering wheel, is scheduled to arrive next fall, as a 2012 model. Nissan already has pre-sale orders for the entire first-year production run of 20,000 units. It will be able to ramp up production to 300,000 annually, if demand for Leaf continues to grow. If that level of production is achieved, the economies of scale will really start to kick in and the price should start to drop. Leaf’s list price in the U.S. is a hefty $32,780 US, but that’s offset by a $7,500 federal environmental tax credit for anyone who buys a zero-emissions car; some states offer additional tax rebates. When you then factor in the fuel savings, the car starts to look even more attractive. Nissan estimates U.S. electrical costs will be about $2.64/100 miles on average, at a rate of 11 cents/24 kWh. The Leaf is based on a stretched version of the Nissan B-platform (used by Versa), and it was designed specifically for its Lithium-ion battery pack, which is in the centre of the vehicle, under the floor. The battery is a unique flat design with four cells and 48 laminated modules. It weighs about 250 kg (600 lbs.) and comes with an eight-year/160,000 km Leaf Page 30

Leaf: Nissan introduces zero-emission car 90 per cent of Canadians commute less than 90 km a day. The actual real-world driving range of the Leaf depends on a multitude of factors, including where, when and how it’s driven. Use of its Econ mode extends the driving range considerably, and travel distances way beyond its rated range are certainly possible. Leaf’s battery can be

charged up to 80 per cent of its full capacity in 30 minutes when connected to a dedicated DC fast charger. Charging at home with a 240V (dryer or stove type) outlet takes about eight hours. Using the standard 120V wall connection takes 20 hours to recharge a completely depleted battery pack. The charging points are hidden under a small door located in the front of the Leaf and the plug connects to an on-board charger. A regenerative braking system also helps increase driving range. Leaf’s electric motor acts as a generator, converting energy lost during braking or deceleration into battery energy. Leaf is the most car-like electric vehicle I’ve driven to date, and I would put it on par with a Toyota Prius in terms of handling. At low speeds (below 26 km/h) it makes a humming sound from a speaker at the front of the vehicle to alert pedestrians, which automatically turns

off when the vehicle’s speed reaches 31 km/h. It’s a bold move by Nissan, and by getting in early, it can take advantage of pent-up demand for a fully roadworthy and affordable electric car. Beyond the so-called “early adopters and greenintenders” it’s going to be interesting to see how many “everyday” car buyers are prepared to also open their wallet to buy a Leaf.

American Bobby Lea won the elite men’s overall omnium at the recent Saputo Burnaby 4 cycling racing event at the Burnaby Velodrome. Lea won both the pursuit and 1000-metre races, while finishing runnerup in the elimination and points races at the four-day competition. Another American, Kit Karzen, placed in the runner-up spot, winning the elimination portion, while finishing in the top three in the other events. Jacob Schwingboth was third with top-three finishes in the elimination and 1000m. Svein Tuft, who recently signed on with a new Canadian-owned team, SpiderTech Cycling, coowned by former Olympic silver medallist Steve Bauer, finished in a tie for 17th with a group of other riders. Zach Bell did not finish. In the elite women’s omnium, Sarah Hammer of the U.S. placed first overall, beating out Canada’s Tara Whitten, despite the local Velocity Cycling Club rider’s superior overall time after five events. Hammer won the elimination and the 500m. Whitten topped all riders in the pursuit and points races. Joanne Kelsanowski of New Zealand placed third.

BCIT Karate B.C. place to be Tom Berridge sports editor

More than 600 martial artists will converge on Burnaby for the 2011 Karate B.C. provincial championships this month. Burnaby teenage champions Derek Chan and Victoria Barusic will both be looking to qualify for a shot at a Canadian title at the BCIT gym on Jan. 22 and 23. The opening day of competition will be mostly for novice competitors, while the final day will emphasize the elite athletes, who will be vying for selection to the B.C. provincial team for the upcoming national championships in Quebec in March. In recent years, Burnaby athletes have made a significant impact at the national level. Of the 50 to 60

athletes selected to provincial teams, approximately 30 to 40 per cent of those have honed their karate skills in Burnaby, said B.C. coach Sandeep Gill. “We are extremely competitive in Burnaby,” said Gill, who was named Karate B.C.’s high-performance coach of the year. “We have produced the athletes who can medal consistently, and that’s very hard to do internationally.” Chan, a defending two-time national champion, and Barusic, both 16, will be looking ahead towards the Pan American junior championships in Brazil in September and the world juniors later in the year in Malaysia. Andrea Maikawa, a grand champion winner last year, will also be looking to return to the nationals, where she won bronze medals in

junior and open women’s kumite, or sparring. Burnaby martial artist Matthew Ly won a pair of gold medals at last year’s national championships in Toronto. Cadence O’Neal and Kimberly Logan of Burnaby also medalled at the nats. The local talent currently practising karate in Burnaby is what Gill describes as “a big chunk of the medal haul.” “We have a successful program in Burnaby. We have a lot of support in the community,” Gill added. That talent and support can be witnessed first-hand when the provincials move into the BCIT gym in two weeks’ time. Competition in kata (forms) and kumite will be on display on both days at the BCIT gymnasium, beginning at 9 a.m.

Injuries behind early retirement Vancouver Whitecaps striker Kara Lang announced her retirement from international and club soocer at just 24 years old. Lang, a two-time FIFA World Cup player, Olympian and W-League champion with the Whitecaps FC, decided to hang up the boots because of the lingering effects of two knee injuries. “I have come to the very difficult decision to retire from soccer and step down from the national team,” said Lang on Wednesday in a Canadian Soccer Association release. “I have always held myself to a very high standard – as it is demanded at the international level. Regrettably, I am physically incapable of maintaining that standard and fulfilling my role as a player.” Lang spent nine years with the Canadian national team after becoming the youngest-ever player at the age of 15 in her debut at the Algarve Cup in Portugal in 2002. In all, Lang made 92 appearances for her country, including two appear-

ances at the FIFA World Cup. She also scored 34 goals during her career, the fourth most in team history. At the club level, Lang helped the Whitecaps to United Soccer Leagues WLeague championship titles in 2004 and 2006. In five seasons with the club, Lang appeared in 36 matches, scoring 14 goals and adding eight assists. Lang was also a standout for the UCLA Bruins, helping the team reach the NCAA championship final in 2005. She also set a school records of 17 goals and six assists as a freshman. Lang’s first knee injury caused her to miss the entire 2006 college season. A second ACL tear to the same knee curtailed her final season at UCLA. She scored her final goal in her last start for Canada at the World Cup qualifier against Guyana on Oct. 31. Her 92 career appearances rank eighth all-time. Lang was born in Calgary but grew up and played soccer in Oakville, Ont.

Jordan Pink, a Grade 11 Burnaby high school student, won the skills shootout competition at the recent 30th annual Richmond International midget hockey tournament. Pink played on Burnaby Minor’s midget A3 team that finished with a 0-3-2 pool record in the midget AA/B division at the tournament.

New players to the Burnaby Minor Lacrosse Association have another chance to register for the upcoming box season on Jan. 11. In-person registration can be made in the Lakeview Room of the Bill Copeland Sports Centre between 7 and 9 p.m.

Moving up the rankings

Burnaby’s Kamil Pajkowski partnered with former University of New Mexico colleague James Bugby to win a recent pro tennis doubles title in Havana, Cuba. With the help of the win, Pajkowski has moved his world doubles ranking up more than 500 places since last year.

Goalie tops AHL week Burnaby’s Brian Stewart was named the American Hockey League player of the week for the first week of 2011. The Adirondack Phantom rookie goalie stopped 93 of 98 shots for a 1.34 goals-against average and a .949 stopping percentage in three wins ending Jan. 2. Stewart, who starred for the University of Northern Michigan last season, started the week with a perfect relief outing against the Manchester Monarchs. In his next three starts, Stewart helped Adirondack put together the club’s first three-game win streak since January last year. Stewart recorded his first AHL win of the season, making 27 saves, including all four shootout attempts, to preserve a 3-2 win over Springfield. He then allowed just one goal in a 2-1 victory over Albany, before stopping 32 shots in the Phantoms’ 3-2 shootout win over the Rochester Americans on Sunday. Last April, Stewart signed a pro contract with the Philadelphia Flyers as a free agent.

SFU BASKETBALL

Clan teams lose 2011 openers Career games from Ricky Berry and Zach Frehlick were not enough to carry the Simon Fraser University to victory in the first game of 2011. The Clan men lost a 9992 shootout to the Western Washington Vikings in a Great Northwest Athletic Conference basketball game in Bellingham, Washington on Sunday. Berry shot 15-for-28 from the field, including six from beyond the arc and seven assists, to finish with a career-high 40 points. Frehlick also had a night to remember, scoring 23 points on eight-for-11 shooting, including five-ofeight from downtown. Transfer guard Connor

Lewis added 10 points as the Clan shot nearly 58 per cent from the floor in the loss. SFU opened on a 19-5 tear, hitting five of its first six three-point attempts. Western Washington’s John Allen had a careerand game-high 43 points for the Vikes.

Record loss

The SFU women’s team lost an uncharacteristic fifth consecutive basketball game this week. The Clan lost 91-76 to Northwest Nazarene University in Great Northwest conference play Monday, handing the team the dubious record under head coach Bruce Langford.

“If we don’t defend and contest shots, and give up far too many second chances, then we aren’t going to win many games,” said Langford in a school press release. “We have to work harder and compete harder.” The Clan women came out on fire, opening on an 11-2 run, but wound up trailing 46-40 by halftime. The second half was all Northwest Nazarene following a 20-8 beginning run. Nayo Raincock-Ekunwe posted her seventh doubledouble of the season for SFU, finishing with 22 points and 13 rebounds. Kristina Collins added 16 points, including three treys.

SFU men fourth on Menlo mats

The Simon Fraser University men’s wrestling team placed fourth at the Menlo College Invitational meet in California this week. The Clan was led by Max Arcand and Clete Hanson, who both placed third overall in their respective 165- and 184-pound weight classes at the nine-team meet. SFU also received fourth-place points from Kurtis Giberson at 141 lbs. and Michael Cappus at 157 lbs. In a head-to-head dual meet run in

conjunction with the competition, SFU and Menlo tied with 24 points apiece. Cappus and Arcand both won their bouts by a pin, while Hanson, Arminder Virk, at 174 lbs., and Pardeep Rehki, at 197 lbs., were winners by decision in their respective weight classes. Cal State Bakersfield won the overall invitational title. San Francisco State was third and Southern Oregon third. Douglas College was shut out at the meet, finishing last.

Good start:

Draft: Back to the drawing board continued from page 31

another group to discuss the merits of a graduating intermediate draft. Neither Weaver nor Thompson saw an open draft of intermediate players as a likely replacement – as most Jr. A clubs are highly protective of their own talent. “New West spends a lot of time and has excellent coaches teaching a similar system to its New West players. And lots of kids from the local area want a chance to play for their home team, and you’re going to open it to a draft and tell them where they’ve got to play?” Which brings us to this weekend’s

meeting. “We have to go back to the drawing board,” Thompson noted. “A midget draft makes the most sense. … It just smacks of stupid when you allow that many teams to vote on a decision that really impacts just eight teams.” Weaver said some form of compromise may be necessary to get the 60 other directors from around B.C. to support a new midget selection process. “I think we just have to do a better job of selling the merits of the draft to the other (BCLA) members,” he noted. Dan Olson is the sports editor of the Coquitlam NOW.

CAREER COACH

Interview Tips, Part 2

A previous participant in one of my career workshops has had 13 interviews with a variety of employers in Vancouver over the past couple months. Here’s part 2 of what he’s learned from his experiences, in his own words: • Practice frequently asked interview questions like, Gregg Taylor "Tell me about yourself?" "What are your strengths and weaknesses?" "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" "How do you get along with difficult co-workers?" Most interviewers are not creative so they have asked me the same questions over and over. • Get ready to receive lots of rejections! You're a Sales Rep marketing yourself so it's just a numbers' game. Don't take it personally. It's just business and use your energies for your next interview. • There could be so many reasons why you didn't get the job offer. It could be because there was an internal candidate. The Hiring Manager wanted to hire his friend or brother, but they still had to go through the formal hiring process. The company thought they had enough money to add an employee, but they realized they didn't. Don't waste your time wondering if you said something wrong at the interview. It's possible that you did everything right, but still didn't get a job. • Although you may end up wasting lots of time doing company research and dressing up for an interview for nothing if you don't get a job, it's still interesting to meet new people (interviewers) and check out their work environment. You may run into them at a conference or somewhere in the future. You can strike a conversation to network with them if you enjoyed having an interview with them. • I got a call today for another interview on December 30th! I guess some companies are still conducting interviews during the Holiday season.” Job searching is a challenging job for anyone. If you need help identifying a career that’s worth all that effort, call my office. For help finding the work you love, call Transitions Career & Business Consultants, coordinators of The Transitions Program, a free 3 week career exploration program available to all unemployed people at 604434-1177 or 604-681-2774.

Refreshingly Clean Meticulously Maintained

Surrey Gardens Apartments for your new one bedroom home

From

Cancer June 21-July 22: The accent lies on relationships: partnerships, marriage, exciting prospects if single – and on opportunities, opposition, litigation, negotiation, relocation. Be patient if a legal matter gets in the way of a work project before Thursday: this barrier should fade by late month or March. Recent relationship intensity will lighten Saturday onward. This day starts a six-week period of investment in your career (via money, time, commitment, any of these). But avoid “pure investments” these six weeks – they might “burn cash.” Thursday/Friday bring social delights! Retreat, rest, plan Saturday. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Another 11 days of work and health drudgery. But this trend is relieved by a nice, buoyant romantic breeze. After Saturday, too, life becomes so exciting you’ll forget that work surrounds you! However, you probably have lots of unﬁnished chores “hanging ﬁre” after a few weeks of neglect or misdirected efforts. Focus on those now, briskly clear away as much as you can. Don’t mix sex and romance before Thursday, nor creativity and “building,” nor investment and a gambling urge. Be ambitious, seek out higher-ups Thursday/Friday – luck accompanies you. Saturday brings social joys! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: The emphasis lies on romance, creative urges, speculation and a love of “risk,” children’s affairs, pleasure and beauty. You’re riding a winning streak! But don’t expect a lot of cooperation from spouse, others, regarding any property, security or family notion you have. They’ll only join in if there is an ambitious angle for them. Don’t try to seal any deals before Thursday. Though two weeks remain in this romantic phase, you’ll need to make your bid for intimacy now, as Saturday ends a long “sexual magnetism” streak. (Another, life-changing one comes Nov. 11 to July 2012.)

Tim Stephens' Astral Reﬂections Aries March 21 - April 19: Remain ambitious. You see things wisely, your “executive decisions” are good. The barrier that appeared last week (refusal/ competition from another?) is not gone, but you’re moving beyond it. Retreat, rest and plan future actions Sunday. Your energy surges Monday to Wednesday – you’ll need it to run the gauntlet of barriers and problems that face you – give it a heroic try! It ends with a comforting message or thought. Chase money (or buy important items) Thursday/Friday – smooth luck accompanies you. Saturday brings talks, trips, casual friends – and starts six weeks of social joy! Taurus April 20-May 20: You’re making some of the most important contacts of this decade, over the last year and this month. Be sociable, say hello, join new groups and clubs. Strictly avoid legal hassles this week. Take care with “big money” Sunday to Wednesday – unrealistic hopes could lead you astray. Your energy, charisma and effectiveness soar Wednesday night through pre-dawn Saturday – a good time to socialize, join that new group, or whisper words of love to someone! Chase money, shop, sell items Saturday. Friday starts six weeks of possible friction with bosses, parents – be humble, not sassy! Gemini May 21-June 20: This week contains yes’s and no’s. The biggest “no” occurs Tuesday and Friday in investment, large money, power, clout and sexual areas. (Especially if these also involve legal, international, intellectual and cultural arenas.) The yes’s? In work, health, career Monday to Wednesday and Saturday: commitment equals eventual winning! If you have to choose between love, creativity and risk on one side and big money, clout, power, sexual magnetism on the other, choose love, creativity, risk: they control the environment right now. Your ﬁnances need change, but not expansion. You’re loved.

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The main accent lies on family, home, security, real estate, gardening, nutrition, Mother Nature. This area faces significant (world-changing) transformations now to 2024. This week (and the past five) domestic conditions fight your partnership yearnings. E.g., you live in different cities, or your place is such a mess you fear to invite anyone home, or “Mommy” lives on the couch. However, Saturday eases this: you start six weeks of heightened romantic prospects and intensity. This leads to a February-June blooming of splendid relationship luck, and in turn to eight years of love excitement. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Paperwork, details, communications, errands – you have a lot of small chores to perform. You’ll do them easily. Your money luck improves. Buy a gift for a loved one. Sunday’s romantic. Tackle chores Monday to Wednesday – but avoid money topics, or chasing money. Relationships inspire, attract, open doors to success Wednesday night to Saturday pre-dawn. Be outgoing, eager, diplomatic – love could shine! Saturday brings mysteries, financial and sexual opportunities. This day begins six weeks of possible domestic friction – channel this energy into repairs or build a new job “base.” Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Continue to chase money. You might have to make some decisions or pronouncements about home, family, real estate – you’re still ultra-lucky here to Jan. 21. Buying a new home is favoured Jan. 9, 10 (before 2 p.m. PST) 13,14, 15, 19 (to 1:30 p.m.) 20 and 21. Money continues to flow beside you – bringing more, but prompting you to spend more. Sunday’s for home, family. Romance, creative projects, speculation call you Monday dawn to Wednesday eve. Tackle chores and health issues Thursday/Friday: you’ll succeed easily! Exciting meetings, opportunities Saturday.

1 MONTH FREE!

Jan. 9 - Jan. 16 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Your energy, charisma, pizzazz and effectiveness ride high! Make contacts and satisfy your curiosity, especially Sunday. Get out all week, chase, begin important projects. Demand an end to unfair or stale situations Monday to Wednesday. Romance, creative surges, speculative urges and pleasure visit you Wednesday night to Saturday predawn. Tackle chores Saturday. This day, a long period of determination and sexual magnetism ends; this was a complex “gift,” for it also nudged you toward the end of many things. Most things existing before 2008 are ripe for ending. Soon – the new! Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Continue to rest. Lie low, contemplate people and situations, and make plans. Be charitable. Deal with government agencies, institutions, corporate head offices. This week and next are your last “opening” for a while to make a major purchase or launch a lucky earnings vehicle. Sunday is particularly good for this. (But DON’T buy high-tech, electronics, etc. before Thursday.) Talks, trips and casual friends fill Monday-Wednesday. Deal with family, real estate Thursday/Friday – luck accompanies you. Starting Saturday, you’ll be active, magnetic and determined, for six weeks! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Bosses, parents and higher-ups treat you with new approval or affection for the rest of January. Take advantage – socialize, schmooze. Money often flows along “networks.” Your energy remains high Sunday. Be ambitious Monday to Wednesday, especially in the pursuit of money. (These are not really good purchasing days, though, nor for gaining the co-operation of your equals/peers.) Casual friends, siblings, communications and travel fill Thursday/Friday – all is smooth, easy! Settle into a “down home” weekend Saturday. This day starts six weeks of secret money plans or “charity money.” timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
