Lost dog

Big guns brought in to search

Washington dogs have narrowed efforts to find a missing pet.

Museum eyes Peace Park The historical society wants to gauge the public’s response to ideas of relocating the museum downtown.

Harry Oakes’ job can send him around the United States and the world looking for missing people and pets – but on Sunday, it brought him to Pitt Meadows looking for a lost Pomeranian. The Frankland family hired the search and rescue worker from Longview, Wash., who brought along border-collies Willow and Tyler to help find Teddy, the dog they received from a rescue two years ago. Teddy escaped from the family’s secured fenced yard at 11 a.m. on Friday. Oakes is the owner and search-and-rescue coordinator of International Canine Search and Rescue, a for-profit company that employs 64 people, some part-time, others full-time. Oakes tracked Teddy’s scent to an area five miles from their home, and that’s where the search ended. He started at 7:30 a.m. on Sunday morning from Sawyer’s Landing, through marshes, under the Golden Ears Bridge, and into Maple Ridge. “It was really interesting seeing the dogs work,” Rehana Frankland said. Frankland, her husband Kevin, and her sister Shaneza Bacchus watched as Oakes tried to purposely mislead the dogs to test them, but they wouldn’t allow him and stayed on Teddy’s trail. When they finally reached Dewdney Trunk Road and Laity Street, Oakes said it seemed that Teddy was not going to stop running and their best bet would be to get the word out about the lost dog in that neighbourhood. Frankland was surprised the trail led so far from their home, but when the next day they received a call about a sighting, she knew the tracker must have been on the right trail. Oakes said larger dogs are often used in wilder terrain where there are more predators, but smaller dogs are more useful in earthquake areas to get into smaller spaces. “They both bring a lot to the searchand-rescue [field],” Oakes said. The family spent $1,250 on the tracker

Harry Oakes is a search and rescue worker from Longview, Wash., who also looks for lost pets with his tracking dogs Willow and Tyler. and have incurred costs with postering and driving to nearby communities letting the vets and SPCA shelters know about their lost dog. Teddy was rescued from a puppy mill and had been with the family for two years. With “time, love, and patience,” Frankland said they’ve made “great strides” in improving Teddy’s behaviour. Frankland said she can’t figure out why Teddy escaped from their yard and has

continued running because he’s so timid. “It’s so out of character for him,” she said. It’s been almost week since Teddy disappeared, and with that Frankland has experienced “highs and lows.” “It really comes and goes – after the sighting, we were so optimistic,” Frankland said. The Frankland family is offering a reward of $1,000. They can be reached at 778-229-5431.

The Maple Ridge Museum & Archives have locked their sights on the empty lot next to Memorial Peace Park to house Maple Ridge’s historical record. The District of Maple Ridge recently announced it’s reconsidering the use of the piece of property west of the Leisure Centre that was originally slated for a hotel. Options suggested were integrating it into the park or using it for commercial purposes. “Given the recent infrastructure improvements on 224th and the flat nature of the property, it would be far cheaper to build on the Memorial Peace Park site than on the currently proposed site for a Val Patenaude new museum north Maple Ridge Museum director of Haney House,” said Val Patenaude, director of the Maple Ridge Museum. The museum is currently at Haney House and Pateanude said the number of calls to the museum asking to access the archives is continuously increasing. It is also impossible to meet community and researcher demand for access to archival material, according to Patenaude. The Historical Society endorsed relocating the museum to Memorial Peace Park at their Monday evening meeting. The museum could be housed in a building next to the park along with other community groups, for example, the business improvment association, the chamber of commerce, or tourism, Patenaude said. As part of the community consultation on the property, the historical society wants their suggestion in the public to gauge their response. Maple Ridge will host an open house to discuss the future use of the lot on May 16 from 7 to 9 p.m. in the Fraser Room (second floor) of the Maple Ridge Library.

A Maple Ridge couple are moving to Kenya, where they will adopt two children and live at an orphanage. by Troy Landreville

tlandreville@mrtimes.com

A spiritual couple, Sean and Naomi Owen are taking a leap of faith – from Maple Ridge to Africa. This July, the couple is moving to Kenya, where Sean and Naomi will live on the grounds of the Nakuru Baby Orphanage near the town of Nakuru. There, they will adopt two children and raise them for a year before returning with them to Canada. For $120 per month rent, the family will live in a two-bedroom hut, normally used for tourists on African safaris.

Filming

Daydream Nation packs a local punch A movie shot in Maple Ridge and Fort Langley features some big name stars. by Amy Judd ajudd@mrtimes.com

Locals who catch a showing of the new film Daydream Nation may recognize some familiar sights. The halls and classrooms of Westview Secondary were used as the school in the film, and Fort Langley featured prominently as the backdrop for a small town, where an industrial fire burns ceaselessly and a serial killer is claiming young victims. Daydream Nation, starring Kat Dennings, Andie McDowell, and Josh Lucas, was shot entirely in Maple Ridge and Langley, and producer Christine Haebler said they were delighted with the venues. “Fort Langley specifically represented a small town,” she said. “It was the closest one that was picturesque enough and had everything we needed,” and they looked at a lot of different locations. In Maple Ridge the crew filmed at Westview and at another house, which was used for one of the main character’s homes. “Loved it, loved it, loved it,”

Reece Thompson filmed a flying scene inside Westview Secondary. Kat Dennings (inset) walked the halls of Westview Secondary as Caroline Wexler.

said Haebler of the experience filming in the two close communities. “It was a real eye-opener for me because I had never really worked out there.” “The whole crew were just blown away by the generosity of

Maple Ridge and the communities,” she added. “It was great to make a Canadian film.” She said the students from Westview were used as extras in the high school, and other locals also played extras in various locations. “We wanted to maintain a certain air of authenticity,” said Haebler. “We also tried to be as

low-impact as possible.” Filming was slated to start late last year, but due to one actor losing his grandfather, his role had to be recast and filming was rescheduled from January 8 to February 9. Despite the setback, Haebler said once filming began, “we were like a train.” Daydream Nation tells the

story of 17-year-old Caroline Wexler (Kat Dennings), who moves from the city to a small town, where nothing seems to happen except for the serial killer on the loose. When Wexler realizes she has nothing in common with the permanently stoned kids that populate her new high school, she sets her sights on the one person she connects with – her handsome young teacher, Barry Anderson (Josh Lucas). Meanwhile her classmate, Thurston Goldberg (Reece Thompson), has fallen hopelessly in love with her and enlists the help of his mother, Enid (Andie MacDowell) to get him past Caroline’s over-protective father (Ted Whittall). Haebler said that although the film was thought to mainly appeal to younger audiences, those of an older demographic have also shown appreciation. “For adults, they recognize it as a teenage anthem,” she said. “It’s definitely North American,” she added, “but I heard comments such as ‘that stuff happened in our high school’ from people in their 50s now.” “It does have that teenage anthem aspect to it,” said Haebler, “and as a result it might stick around.” Daydream Nation is already in some theatres, and is scheduled to be released on DVD in Canada this June.

Sex offender

Mounties issue warning RCMP notify the public of a high-risk offender living in Maple Ridge. by Amy Judd

Mounties insist that no one approach him in such cases, but rather call the police. Police can release this information under a Public Interest Notification as outlined by the Privacy Act of Canada, when it is deemed to be in the interest of public safety.

A local woman has been charged with two counts of dangerous driving causing death, in the deaths of two young people Oct. 21, 2010. Andelina Kristina Hecimovic, 23, appeared in Port Coquitlam provincial court last Thursday, and will appear again June 1 for an arraignment hearing. Pitt Meadows residents John De Oliveira, 21, and Rebecca Dyer, 19, were heading home from Vancouver

Sprinkler douses stove fire

TIMES’ files

after attending a Justin Bieber concert with another friend. They had already dropped off the friend and were travelling on the Lougheed Highway, just east of the intersection of Harris Road in Pitt Meadows, when a Toyota Paseo skidded sideways over top of the concrete median and into westbound traffic.

Events of Monday night are yet another example of why sprinkler systems are needed in homes, said Pitt Meadows fire chief Don Jolley. A young mother was moving into her new digs on Monday around 4 p.m. in the 11900 block of Harris Road, when the stove was accidentally turned on, and

The Toyota flipped over, hitting the roof of the Suzuki Swift driven by Oliveira. Police reported both occupants of the Swift, De Oliveira and Dyer, were killed on impact. According to witnesses at the time, the Toyota driver was driving aggressively. Police allege this was a major contributing factor to the crash.

the boxes placed on the top caught fire. “Once again the sprinkler system extinguished the fire,” said Jolley, referring to an apartment fire on April 27 at The Fairways apartment that was also doused by the built-in sprinkler system.

Our View

Smokers get straight help If there were ever an issue for which the B.C. government should butt into people’s personal lives, this one is it. Premier Christy Clark announced the province will provide nicotine replacement therapies for free, and cover smoking cessation prescriptions as of Sept. 30. Quitting cold turkey can be hard, and patches, gum, and prescription drugs can go a long way to easing withdrawal symptoms. More than 6,000 British Columbians die from tobacco use each year. Lung cancer – predominantly the domain of tobacco and tobacco products – accounts for 26 per cent of all cancer deaths. Tobacco has become the largest single cause of premature death and disease in B.C. Provincial estimates place the economic tally – health care costs, lost work time, reduced productivity, etc. – at $2.3 billion per year. Health care costs directly related to smoking that are covered by the Ministry of Health are pegged at $605 million per year. The emotional toll is tremendously greater than any dollar figure can describe. “Every year, tobacco-related deaths rob us needlessly of friends, family and loved ones,” Clark said during her announcement. The tone of Monday’s news marks a welcome change from provincial policy makers. B.C. has tried to hit smokers over the head with the big stick of costs. There have been several increases to the provincial tobacco tax over the years, and while that has been proven to be a somewhat effective deterrent to smoking, it also creates an underground economy by which smokers sneak under the inflated costs of their habit. Meanwhile, little investment has been made in strategies for helping individuals quit smoking. B.C. residents are paying, regardless of whether or not they puff. Rather than beating smokers into submission, this program should serve as an enticement to kick the habit. There’s some common sense showing through this hazy issue.

Albion Flat saga continues Dear Editor,

I was delighted and hopeful to read Mayor Ernie Daykin and Councillors Mike Morden, Judy Dueck, Al Hogarth, and Cheryl Ashlie had a meeting with SmartCentres to discuss Albion Flats. As I read further I became dismayed, I found mayor and council took this meeting out of courtesy and politeness.

Scouts

Saluting leaders Dear Editor,

A parent of a wolf cub, my view is independent of Pitt Meadows Scouts and the parents. However, I am confident my comments would be supported by the latter in recognition of our volunteer leaders contributions. Our son, like other cubs, has been involved for years and it is time to vocalize our thanks to our leaders: Charles Poirier, Asher Steed, and Tom Adlington. Despite the leaders having their own kids in Scouts, they deserve praise for their unselfish devotion and community spirit in following the best traditions of this organization. Like others, this parent wants to say thank you for making this small group special with memories, fun, adventures and life skill experiences. It is the tireless efforts of leaders abroad and active parents with their kids that make Scouts a great organization. There are countless other community organizations and volunteers in Canada who also deserve their accolades as these organizations help mould the next generation of leaders and responsible citizens. Think about enrolling your child in community groups, like Scouts, because it is well respected in the global arena, as with many others.

Kerwin Maude, Pitt Meadows

The two councillors who were not courteous or polite were Craig Speirs and Linda King; both were perceived as rude and arrogant, placing road blocks in lieu of olive branches. Their collective ‘no’ vote is well known. Instead, they support saving farmland that has not been farmed in 100 years because it’s very wet and poor land, therefore can’t be farmed. I am also sure Craig Spiers has ALR on speed dial. The citizens of Maple Ridge deserve more. We need shopping and jobs – and without question tax relief. Did you know Maple Ridge has had 10 consecutive tax increases of three to five per cent? During that timeframe, we have seen very little commercial development offering jobs and tax relief. The only new commercial development was Coopers and the Liquor Barn on 240th Street, along with the New Westminster Credit Union on the Zellers site. How many new jobs were created? What is council waiting for? SmartCentres owns the land and has sweetened the deal again. Likely more delay tactics – like another useless and expensive charette, or should council follow the example of Pitt Meadows and move forward with proven business methods. I suggest that all interested citizens have a look at the SmartCentres’ website. This national shopping developer with 185 malls built to date, has a strong presence in B.C. Look to (our centres) you too will be impressed in what you find. SmartCentre is obviously very good in project mall development. I have full confidence, a shopping and commercial development in Albion will be a boon to Maple Ridge, in terms of shopping, jobs and taxes. This will also keep more dollars in town while reducing commuting and CO2 emissions by the ton. Jim Bulpit, Maple Ridge

Reaction

Okay, then Kamp should retire

Dear Editor,

Re: [Kamp: No intention of retiring, April 29 Letters, TIMES]. There it is, boys and girls, I am, according to Mr. Kamp, a “rabid NDP partisan.” LOL. I can only guess where you got that tidbit of information, probably from your fellow Conservative Marc Dalton, as he sees everybody that disagrees with him as an NDP partisan also. For your information, Mr. Kamp, I prefer to think of myself as a centrist now that the local Gordon Campbell’s misnamed Conservatives have hijacked and decimated the Liberal brand in this province for at least the near future. But you are partly right, I did follow the strategic voting advice and voted for Mr. Speirs as he was the only local candidate

who had a chance to defeat you in the recent election. I cannot imagine any sane Canadian giving the Conservatives another term as a minority government, let alone a majority. But that is what happened. As far as your wanting to quit politics, as I am not on your personal mailing list, and am not one of the chosen few, I have to rely on what I read and hear on the news – just like the rest of Canada. And I have read more than a few statements to that effect during the least a couple years now. As far as Mr. Harper not pressuring you about this decision, knowing Mr. Harper – as we do – I am sure Mr. Harper would never do anything like that.

Wayne Clark, Maple Ridge

Thank you

4X4ers dug in for Earth Day cleanup at Stave Dear Editor,

A great big thank you is due to the members of the Four Wheel Drive Association of BC, who organized a cleanup of the forests on the east side of Stave Lake on Earth Day.

Fun in BC is one of those groups, who, along with 110 volunteers, helped pull 60,000 pounds of steel and waste out of the bush. Way to go! Thanks to all who participated.

Heritage

Pride came from sifting through the past

One of the established definitions of the word ‘native’ is a person born in a certain place or country. Wherever you are born you are native to that place – no matter how long your people have lived there. The act of being born makes you a native equal to any other native born in the same place, no matter when. This is not about the past treatment of people who came earlier to this land. That is another matter. But no one can be born more native than another if both are born in the same place. I was born in Canterbury in Kent in England, where the cathedral is. A native of England – English – but the history of England includes prehistoric residents, early migrants from Europe and the Middle East: Romans from Italy, Angles, Saxons and Jutes from Germany, Vikings from Scandinavia, Normans from France, Flemings from Belgium, France and the Netherlands, and Scots, Irish and Welsh who chose to be there. As a child I played among prehistoric ruins, climbed the walls of Roman fortresses, picnicked under the arches of Anglo-Saxon and Norman castles and fortified houses, went on elementary school rambles through the grounds of mediaeval mansions. Along with my friends, I kept an eye open for old spear and arrowheads and was always hoping to find a buried hoard of gold coins. As I grew up it never occurred to me that this wasn’t my heritage. This was the land into which I was born. This was my native land. This was my history. When I came to British Columbia and saw the evidence of settlement of B.C.’s early people; when I looked at their tools and their masks and learned something of their lives and customs, I thought of them the way I thought of the early peoples of England.

Pitt Meadows

And I wanted my Canadian children to think of the history of the early people of Canada as their by Alan Woodland history because they were born here too. When the children were little, we went to the digs that were taking place in a 4,000-year-old Coast Salish fishing camp at the Mungo Cannery site, near what would become the footings of the Port Mann Bridge. The children were invited to sift the earth and find whatever treasure it gave up. I was moved by this and wrote a poem. I felt that way then, and as I watch my children and their children, all born in the Lower Mainland, I see nothing to make me change my mind.

Some Pitt Meadows residents have been lobbying hard, and might finally see some results this summer when two ditches will be dug to improve surface drainage west of the Wildwood Trail. Pitt Meadows council in committee approved $14,250 from the operating reserve to cover engineering and installation costs for two shallow ditches to be dug. The final decision will be made at council next Tuesday. “I’m very happy that it was passed by council,” said Councillor Bruce Bell. The vote wasn’t unanimous, Mayor Don MacLean voted against it, but it was enough to pass. Bell explained there will be one ditch dug to flow water to “Unfortunately it the northeast, and another to has taken quite the southeast. a long time and “Unfortunately it has taken some of the trees quite a long time and some of the trees have died,” said Bell. have died.” He agreed with many resiBruce Bell dents in the area in who are saying that the construction of the Wildwood Trail is preventing the water between residents’ homes and the trail from draining away, creating a dam effect with water pooling in people’s backyards. “The idea of the ditches is that it would at least move the water away from their backyard,” said Bell. Resident Leslie Colquhoun said she is happy that a solution appears to be moving forward, and that council is on board with the plan.“There is some uncertainty whether this idea will work,” she said. One of the ditches will be built right behind Colquhoun’s neighbour’s fence, and she said her neighbour is not too happy about that. “I don’t blame them,” she added as they are worried about the ditch eroding the integrity of the fence.

Rotary fundraiser

Dealership holds a duck day to push tickets

Maple Ridge Chrysler owner Ian Speckman throws down the gauntlet, challenging other dealerships to come aboard for an important, worthy cause. by Roxanne Hooper

rhooper@mrtimes.com

ever much of a jock himself, but fully aware of what a tremendous difference participation in sports can make to a child’s life, Maple Ridge Chrysler owner Ian Speckman leapt at the chance to be involved in the new Rotary Duck Race. Meadowridge Rotary and Rotary Club of Haney are endeavouring to raise $100,000 for local youth groups by selling 10,000 ducks that will participate in a race down the Alouette River on July 31. The idea is that people can purchase a duck for $10, with all the money going to sports and youth groups in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows. But supporters can go away with much more than just the rewarding feeling of helping out local kids. They could win a 2011 convertible Jeep Wrangler – complete with a full tank of gas. It’s a much-coveted two-door sporting vehicle that retails for $24,000.

Maple Ridge Chrysler owner Ian Speckman and the duck invite people down to Duck Day at the dealership on Sunday, for free hot dogs, an opportunity to see the grand prize, and to buy tickets for the Rotary Duck Race.

The Rotary duck proved popular with international exchange students at the Rotary International District 5050 conference at Harrison Hot Springs May 5-8. The duck was there to help promote a fundraiser being held by local Rotary Clubs this summer. “This is not a one-year lease. You own it,” Speckman clarified, noting his dealership is hosting a duck day this Sunday where he’s encouraging more duck (ticket) sales. It will give people a chance to enjoy a free hot dog, check out the prize vehicle, and most importantly, buy tickets, he said. Having owned a few Jeeps of

his own, Speckman said this is a vehicle synonymous with fun, outdoor recreation, and activity. Although he was originally thinking of donating a Fiat to the cause, he said a Jeep seemed more fitting for the duck race. “They’re more fun than you can imagine. Everyone loves them, but they don’t always buy them. So this gives people a

chance to win one, and help the kids,” Speckman said. When Rotarians were hunting for sponsorship and support earlier this year, they knocked on Speckman’s door. A lot of local businesses weren’t able to come to the table with such a high-degree of support, Speckman said. But he bought in immediately.

“Quite simply, I believe in our kids and our community,” he said. “I thought it was a pretty expensive venture… but it’s worth it. Raising $100,000 to keep kids off the streets and from in front of 7-Eleven… It was a no brainer,” he said. As a father of three boys, two of whom are heavy into sports, Speckman was excited about giving kids a chance – especially those who might otherwise not be able to afford it – to participate in constructive extra-curricular activities. “Sports is far cheaper than lawyers,” he said. Having been a resident of the community since he was three, and with Maple Ridge Chrysler since 1985, (first as a salesman, later as sales manager, and now as part owner) Speckman is proud to see a project like this being initiated in his hometown, and excited to be part of it. “We’ve had a very successful business in Maple Ridge, and as a business supported by the community, we have a responsibility to support it back,” he said, throwing down the gauntlet and challenging other local dealerships to come aboard and sweeten the pot – offer more cars – with prizes. “This is not about Maple Ridge Chrysler. It’s about the kids, and an opportunity to give back to the community.”

Cycling

Record turnout despite race obstacles The weather may not have played along, but organizers of this year’s Race the Ridge say it was still a success. More than 165 racers braved steady rain last Saturday morning to challenge the 22-kilometre individual time trial in Golden Ears Provincial Park. This was stage one of Race the Ridge, presented by Local Ride Bike Shop – a three-event cycling race in Maple Ridge in which the rider with the shortest combined time of all three competitions was declared the overall winner. Despite the poor weather, the stage race received the highest rider attendance in the event’s nine-year history, said race organizer and Local Ride Bike Shop owner Barry Lyster. “The cat 3/4 men’s race sold out, we had the strongest cat 3/4 women’s field ever, and the youth race was competitive and is continuing to grow,” he added. The Maple Ridge-based Local Ride/Dr. Vie Superfoods+ Elite Women’s Team made its debut at the race with the full roster on scene, and won every one of the three stages in the cat 1/2 women’s category.

On Saturday afternoon the skies unleashed a hail, thunder, and lightning storm for the hallmark downtown criterium, which led to a flood on Haney Place, an integral part of the 800-metre race course. “In a lot of ways, it was pretty amazing we were even able to save the crit,” said Lyster of Saturday evening’s stormy race.

“We had to change the course when it flooded, then change it back when it drained,” he added. “It was good to have all this unexpected help and the slight break in the weather so we could let the flood drain for the cat 1/2 men’s race.” Maple Ridge Councillor Linda King was one of the helpers, and she came equipped with gumboots to help clear the flooded road. King was seen wading in the knee-deep puddle as she

The fees and charges for the use of sports fields in Maple Ridge and Pitt Meadows have not been reviewed in the past few years, but rates look like they are set to go up next season. “It’s actually going to generate a little pot of money,” said Kelly Swift, general manager of com-

munity development and parks and recreation. The fee increases have to be approved by both Pitt Meadows and Maple Ridge councils. Adult regular fees would be increased from $11.55 to $12.70 per hour for all games played on regular or synthetic turf fields. Adult regular fees would be increased from $6.05 to $6.65 per hour for games on ‘B’ class fields, and all fall/winter sport users shall pay $30 per person, per year, into the synthetic carpet replacement/minor capital fund.

Unfortunately, due to the flood delay, the cat 3/4 men’s race was cancelled. “The riders made the call due to safety,” said Lyster. “They were standing in the rain waiting to start, and at a certain point, they just got too cold.” Meanwhile, lightning flashed across the sky and thunder cracked.

Eventual race winner, Vancouver’s Steph Roorda (Local Ride/Dr. Vie Superfoods+), lapped the field for a victory. The top men were back on the long course for the final race of the evening, a 45-minute rush consisting of 45 bikes and riders attempting to out-fox and outsprint one another on the slick roads of the downtown core. In the end, it was Port Moody’s Scott Laliberte (Westwood Cycle/ Cannondale) who took first place nipping Cody Canning at the line.

Semifinals

Rugby season wraps up

The Ridge Meadows Lady Bruins played an intense game against Burnaby Lake last Saturday.

Victorious in Montreal Three girls from Maple Ridge, Emma Hall, left, Emily Duchak, centre, and Mykhaela Johnson, were on Team Pacific, an Atom female AAA hockey team, that selects top players from B.C. Team Pacific competed in Montreal, in the Quebec Female Prospects Tournament. The 10-team tournament included teams from Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, and Vermont. Team Pacific went undefeated in the tournament, winning all six games. The goldmedal game was played against the Ottawa Admirals, and it went back and forth with both teams holding the lead at different times during the game. However, Team Pacific won the final game 3-2, winning the gold medal.

Unfortunately Morgan said due to work and illness, the team was missing “two key people” last Saturday and as a result had to adjust their lineup. “The ladies played amazing but the size of the other team wore them down,” he said, “allowing the by Amy Judd Burnaby team to score twice.” ajudd@mrtimes.com “They did not quit though as by Not winning a game during the the time the game was called the fall season didn’t matter to a local girls had Burnaby hemmed in their rugby team.

Food’s language universal On Cooking by Chef Dez

love being a chef. Food is a universal language that touches the lives of almost everyone. No matter what road of life one travels along, chances are they have an appreciation for a good meal. If you know my wife Katherine and I, you will know of our love for not only food, but also for music. Recently, we had the pleasure of being introduced to country music legend Toby Keith while he was in town for his American Ride Tour. Toby Keith has taken his love for food and paired it with the success of his hit single, I Love This Bar, to create a chain of restaurants aptly named I love This Bar & Grill. The popular honky tonkstyle restaurants are dotted across the U.S.A., and his 10th location will soon be opening in Boston. Although we have not personally visited any of his locations as of yet, they are definitely on our radar for the near future. When inquiring about any recipes from the menu he could share with my readers, we were provided with the following two. They may require a bit of improvisation on your part, depending on the ingredients available where you live, but creativity is half the fun of cooking. The other half is “drinking beer from a mason jar” while doing so. Enjoy.

Cancer June 21-July 22: Romance calls Sunday/ Monday! So do pleasure, arts, creativity, sports, speculation. But work arrives Tuesday to Thursday noon. Plunge in, you’ll get it done easily. Thursday noon to Saturday is both the most important and the luckiest part of this week. Opportunities, exciting meetings, new horizons, success with the public and in contract negotiations, even love can appear. But you need to be co-operative, diplomatic and eager, as others hold the winning cards. Handle irritations Thursday twilight, Friday morning, and mid-afternoon Saturday. Dreams can come true this week! Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Continue to strive ambitiously. Show higher-ups what you’re capable of, finish projects and duties without slacking. Your performance is being watched closely. Over the weeks ahead, if anything, your career heats up. Within less than a month, a great current of luck enters this area (status, prestige, ambitions) to stay for a year. Start ramping up – big things lie ahead for those who are eager and hard-working! But first, take a rest Sunday/Monday; prepare your foundations, give your family support and attention. Romance, pleasure call mid-week. Tackle chores Thursday onward. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Your gentle, compassionate mood continues. It has begun to generate an important idea, project or situation (or relationship). This important thing will grow smaller yet more focused and concentrated over the next few weeks – then, like a sponge in water, swell to absorb more and more of your life and attention, from June to June 201112. Important thing = higher education, international travel or dealings, a major cultural ritual (wedding, etc.) a lawsuit or legal dealing, communication, media or publishing, religion, or finding a life philosophy... and, love. Romance, late week.

THE SCRAPPER

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Aries March 21 - April 19: Money matters heat up – strive to meet schedules, deadlines. There are profit or good earnings here, but even more, present efforts, money accomplishments and new money directions can lead to a whole year of grand financial results, beginning next month! Often, the best actions are preceded by planning, preparation. Do these now, while your mood and optimism, wisdom and view, are high and accurate. This week is mostly successful, but avoid self-deception Wednesday morning, electricity Thursday eve, and “partnership finances” before 9 a.m. Friday. Sex, finances good Monday. Taurus April 20-May 20: Your energy and charisma climb higher, as Mars entered your sign last Wednesday, and Venus and Mercury enter Sunday. These are the three planets involved in 90 per cent of all romance, socializing and popularity – so expect yours to climb! (And in 21days Jupiter also enters Taurus, bringing big luck, the kind that sparks life-changing events.) Use this week to press forward with new or significant projects. Sunday/ Monday bring opportunities, but demand cooperation, diplomacy. Finances, intimacy, bonding and commitment draw you mid-week. Wisdom, gentle love Thursday onward. Gemini May 21-June 20: This is your last week of weariness, quietude and solitude, and of being ignored. Endure it with good humour. We all have our surges and our ebbing. Starting Saturday (end of this week) your energy will increase, and you’ll have a few weeks to take things “over the hump” – to succeed, impress and solve. The best time will be May 21 to June 3, so be prepared to act quickly and fortunately to make a major wish come true. Use this week to plan your late-May actions. Prepare, get paperwork or government or bank records in order. Be charitable. Fulfill obligations. Rest, eat sensibly.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: A huge wave of luck is just around the corner in investments, debt reduction, lifestyle change, health/diagnosis, research, intimacy and sexual bonding, pregnancy and similar lifechanging zones. These things have already impacted your life, pressing on you like a grey velvet hand, for the last three years in an upheaval way, for 18 months in a sober, “let me be secure” way, for the last three weeks in a hopeful way; and now to June 4 in a focused, event-triggering way. On June 4, a whole year of “big luck” starts here. Get ready to invest, change, commit! Fortune might lie at a distance. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Relationships, previously lively, grow serious, focused. Issues become clear. You could fall in love, note someone’s looks, or renew sparks with your mate. Opportunities arise in work, machinery, ﬁnances and social life. These are the precursors, or wee beginnings, of really major opportunities that arrive June 2011 to June 2012. Right now (in May) these are “pure chemistry” attractions/opportunities, but June onward they will tend to be connected to money, earnings, possessions. You could hop on the wagon to the mint! Propose, seize the day, Sunday/Monday and Friday! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: The work is starting to come. The past few weeks have just been “ordinary work.” Now, the chores become clearer, more signiﬁcant. From June 2011 to June to 2012, your luck will grow in this area, but your duties will expand, too. (It’s not “get out of work” luck.) You’ll be lucky, also (June onward) in machinery, so this will be a good time to buy a car/computer, to learn tooling skills, etc. You will almost certainly earn more money (unless you’re in school, etc.). Watch your health, especially thighs and hips. Rest Sunday/ Monday. You shine mid-week. Money late week!

Smarter Buyer. Better Car.

May 15 - 21, 2011 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: The general emphasis lies on romance, pleasure, beauty, creativity, charming kids, speculation. Take a risk, express yourself! All these pleasurable things shrink but grow more “intense” over the next few weeks; then they will swell larger and larger for 12 months. Hopefully you’ve done all you can for your security by now: if not, tie up any loose ends (e.g., property deals, retirement plans, investments, family issues). The future year will not reward caution! Optimism, social joys early week, rest mid-week. Your energy and charisma shine late week – approach someone! Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: The security, domestic, real estate, family, restful, contemplative, natureoriented, soul and nutrition themes that have run through recent weeks continue: but they tend to produce events now through June 2012, lucky events. The best will come after early June. This can be huge luck: a home of your own, or additional real estate, a new family, a new child, the resolution of old problems, dissolution of old skeletons (yes, therapy will be productive). You can leave behind a life of constriction and worry, for a new, bright one! Saturday begins a month of pleasure! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Travel, communications, paperwork, details, casual friends and siblings – these fill the days, even more so now. In the 13 months ahead, you might take two or more significant trips. You’ll do a lot of talking about your career or ambitions, but you won’t do much about them. (It’s as though you sense something deeper, bigger, “fuller” is coming by 2012/13...could be! Could be pregnancy if you’re the right age.) Sunday/Monday feature far travel, rituals, gentle love, wisdom. Ambition, higherups demand your attention midweek. Wish fulfillment, social joys Thursday-Saturday! timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014
