❚TRAFFIC MAYHEM

“Unbelievable” carnage on Surrey roads SURREY - Two Tom Matt were killed, two are ZYTARUK & LAW Staff Reporters clinging to life, two more are in critical condition and two others sustained serious injuries following a stunning spate of carnage on Surrey’s roads. “It’s been unbelievable,” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Drew Grainger said, adding that there seems to be no particular theme to the carnage, other than it’s been bad. “These have happened on sunny, warm days,” he said. A 51-year-old Newton woman died Tuesday after her daughter accidentally stepped on the gas pedal instead of the brake while pulling into the garage of their townhouse, in the 12700-block of 64th Avenue. The green Land Rover Discovery sped forward into the garage and crashed into a wall that separates a hallway in the home.

A 10-month-old baby was in a childseat in the back seat. The baby and daughter weren’t injured. Meanwhile, a 60-year-old Cloverdale man remains in an induced coma after being run down by his own Acura as it was being stolen from his driveway, in the 5900-block of 168A Street, early Sunday morning. “He is in critical but stable condition,” Grainger said. On Monday afternoon, a 47-year-old Surrey man was killed when his motorcycle crashed with a large truck at 172nd Street and Highway 10 in Cloverdale. That morning, a 28-year-old Surrey man was rushed to hospital where he remains in critical condition after he was hit by a Honda Accord while trying to walk across King George Boulevard, near 78th Avenue.

❚ NEWS ❚VIC FRASER MURDER TRIAL

Accused was considered the prime suspect early on SURREY - Gary Tom ZYTARUK Donald Johnston was Staff Reporter the Surrey RCMP’s prime suspect within seven to 10 days of Vic Fraser being stabbed to death in Bridgeview, and his brother Michael Johnston was a “person of interest” in the first 24 hours, the lead investigator of the murder case testified Tuesday. Fraser, a 43-year-old crane operator from New Westminster, was stabbed nine times in the neck when he apparently interrupted a burglary at his sister Jeannie’s bungalow in Bridgeview, on March 10, 1998. Though Johnston was the police’s only suspect from the outset, it wasn’t until September 2009 - more VIC FRASER than 11 years after Fraser was slain - that he was arrested in Montreal and charged with second-degree murder, after allegedly confessing to undercover police who were posing as gangsters. In the meantime, Johnston had stabbed a caretaker to death in Regina eight months after Fraser was killed. Wayne Griffith had testified against Johnston at a preliminary hearing in a burglary and assault case in 1991. Johnston was charged with second-degree murder in the Griffith case but pleaded guilty to manslaughter and served seven years of a 10-year sentence. The “Mr. Big” undercover operation was done afterward, while he was on parole. Johnston, 53, is now being tried in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster for second-degree murder, accused of killing Fraser as he had Griffith, by stabbing him in the neck. It’s the Crown’s theory that Fraser was killed for money. In his opening statement Monday, prosecutor Adam Jantunen alleged that Johnston — who had been a friend of a couple renting a house Vic owned beside Jeannie’s house — waited until she left for work to ransack the place and killed the trucker when he was caught in the act. Const. Al Smith was lead investigator in the Fraser case until he retired in July 1999. He testified Tuesday that Gary Johnston was a “solid” suspect within seven to 10 days of the homicide. Smith said he knew Mike Johnston would be in court later that month, and met him in the lobby. “He was unco-operative,” he said. So police followed him from the courthouse to an apartment in Burnaby, where they spoke with him the next day. “He was very nervous. He stated to me he didn’t want to be seen talking to police,” Smith told the judge. In the meantime, he said, police were still looking for Gary Johnston “as far back east as New Brunswick.” The Surrey RCMP was dealing with a manpower shortage, he noted, and as such investigators’ attention wasn’t exclusively on this case. “There was a lot of other files we were working on,” Smith told the court. The next time he spoke with Mike Johnston was Aug. 25, 1998, when he was arrested in New Westminster on an

Supreme Court in New ❚PHOTO/Regina Leader-Post, for Postmedia News Westminster for second-degree murder. unrelated matter. “My reaction was here we go again,” Smith recalled. “He’s never co-operated with me before.… I expected more runaround,” he told the court. “I’d lost patience with him in the past.” He said he didn’t even bother to bring his notebook. But when he got there, he said, the man was fidgeting and seemed to be jonesing for a fix. That’s when he implicated his brother in Fraser’s murder, Smith said. “He said, ‘I know what happened and I have to get out of here.’ He was really anxious about getting out of jail that night.” Smith said he’d told him he would put a good word in for him with the justice of the peace, but couldn’t promise anything, and only if he’d voluntarily agree to a videotaped interview, under oath, which was done that night. Smith said Mike Johnston told him what his brother Gary had told him about the murder, and that he’d helped his brother burn the crime scene clothing in a friend’s fireplace in Vancouver.

“I found it very interesting he was able to describe the hold-back evidence from the scene,” Smith told the court. That’s evidence police had not revealed to the public. Smith said that after the interview he and another officer went through the ashes. “We found the melted buttons,” he said. Outside the courthouse, the victim’s sister, Jeannie Fraser, harboured unanswered questions about the murder investigation. “Why did it take so long?” Michael Johnston was expected to testify on Thursday after Smith was cross-examined, but the trial has been postponed until next week on account of a swine flu quarantine in the wing where Gary Johnston is being held in the North Fraser Pre-trial Centre. Crown prosecutor Lothar Kiner said health officials there say Johnston won’t be released until at least three days have passed without any prisoner on the wing displaying symptoms of the sickness. tzytaruk@thenownewspaper.com

10 minutes for death to come after bloody knife attack, court told SURREY — Any Tom ZYTARUK of Vic Fraser’s nine Staff Reporter knife wounds could have killed him, a forensic pathologist testified at Gary Donald Johnston’s murder trial in B.C. Supreme Court. The Crown alleges that Johnston, who is charged with second-degree murder in the 44-year-old trucker’s death on March 10, 1998, in a bungalow owned by Fraser’s sister, Jeannie, in Bridgeview, stabbed him at least nine times in the neck. It’s the Crown’s theory that Fraser interrupted Johnston as he was burglarizing the place, and Johnston, not wanting to get caught, grabbed two knives from a knife block JEANNIE FRASER on the kitchen counter and stabbed him, breaking off one blade inside his neck. It’s alleged he then hit Fraser over the head with a clay pot, kicked him in the ribs, and waited for him to die before leaving. But death did not come swiftly for Fraser. Dr. David Charlesworth testified it would have taken “at least 10 minutes” for him to die. “He died of massive blood loss.” A man Fraser’s size would typically have five litres of blood, Charlesworth told the court. During the autopsy, he said, he drained 2.5 litres of blood from Fraser’s chest cavity, “where normally there’d be none.” His body was found near the side door. Johnston listened to the pathologist’s testimony as he carefully flipped through pictures of Fraser’s body at the crime scene, which were bound in a red folder. During cross-examination defence lawyer Georgia Docolas suggested that a five-centimetre laceration to the back of Fraser’s head might have been caused by a fall. She asked if the rib fractures might also have resulted from falling. “No,” Charlesworth replied. “You need more direct force to do it.” RCMP Chief Supt. Janice Armstrong, who was a Surrey RCMP constable at the time, had inspected the crime scene and testified that she found Fraser’s head lying on the floor with some dirt under his head and ceramic shards around it. tzytaruk@thenownewspaper.com

Members of Matt LAW Surrey’s Sikh comNow Contributor munity received free testing for kidney disease on Thursday, as part of World Kidney Day. The event, organized by the B.C. Kidney Foundation, took place from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Dukh Niwaran temple on 152nd Street in Surrey. “The reason we’ve come here is because there are certain groups that are at greater risk for kidney disease, and Sikhs are one of them,” said Heather Johnson, director of programs for the B.C. Kidney Foundation. Asians, Aboriginals and AfricanAmericans are also at a higher risk of kidney disease because of a genetic predisposition. Fifty people signed up ahead of time for the free testing that assessed everything from blood pressure and weight, to urinalysis and glucose tests. The new StatSensor device, approved by Health Canada in 2009, was a key factor for the testing. “Without the StatSensor machine you would have to go to a doctor, who would then send you to a lab to have the tests done. With the machine, a person can just attend a community event,” said Johnson. The hand-held machine produces results measuring kidney function

Success By 6, which started up in 2003, has since then received $28 million in government funding to support more than 450 projects in 225 B.C. communities. The latest allotment — $3.4 million — is for 2011-12. “We know if we reach those children in that very important developmental stage of zero to six — and I say zero to six, because of course we know that what happens prenatally is equally important to the development of a child — if we can do that, we can set them on a positive path to fulfill their potential for the rest of their life,” Polak said.

❚OPINION

Vancouver is changing, oddly MyView

Recently my husband and I decided to have a weekend to ourselves in Downtown Vancouver. I used to live in Vancouver before the wedding and sometimes miss it. I miss the Harvinder international flavour of SANDHU eateries along Robson, Davie and Denman. I miss the view: English Bay overlooking the ocean with beautiful mountains in the background, tankers, sailboats and crazy kayakers in the freezing water. Sitting at English Bay sipping our overpriced coffee, I couldn’t help feeling something was amiss. I looked at the people walking by, a lot had dogs that were well mannered, no doggy poo anywhere – I looked. As usual, there were the hard-core athletic types running or cycling or rollerblading. Very few romantic types sitting on logs, cuddling in the cold air. When the fifth runner jogged by within a minute, I realized what was amiss. No smokers! There weren’t any people smoking on the beach. I know the City of Vancouver passed a law last summer to ban smoking in public parks, I just didn’t think many would actually abide by the law. Surely some would break it. There were a few – mind you, just a few – cigarette butts on the ground around some benches. A huge majority of the park was clean. Squeaky clean. As we walked along Davie Street, we passed only a couple of smokers. They had a look of defiance as we walked by. I think they expected a glare from us for their

E A R LY P R E S C H O O L

smoking. I also noticed how smokers were huddling in dark corners for a quick smoke, looking over their shoulders, it seemed, for the anti-smoking police. I asked a couple of friends who live downtown what the deal was. The first one, of the ‘jog everyday, eat organic raw food only and listen to indie music’ mindset, was very enthusiastic. She approved of the smoking ban and was excited about the dedicated bike lanes. She is young; newly out of university and ready to change the world, er, actually she thinks she and her type can rescue it. Good on her. The other girlfriend smokes, loves her wine and cooks her food. She was pissed she has less and less public places where she can smoke. She would love to whack the bikers in the dedicated lane as they zoom by her as she walks to work. Why? Because the bikers are rude, they whiz by very close to the sidewalks almost hitting her on many occasions. She is in her 40s. The interesting thing was that while the cigarette-smokers were few and seemed to be doing it in hiding, there were many more people openly smoking weed. I know it wasn’t a cigarette being passed around between groups of people! This scene repeated itself much more than the first during our hour-long stroll. It seems the younger generation, the one that grew up programmed to sort their garbage, save the world and force the public to live healthy lives by not smoking cigarettes, was taking over. They demanded and got, through their dollars and vote, a smoke-free organic city. However, I guess this younger generation decided weed, being of the earth and part of nature, was OK. Hmmm.

176 Street/Barnston Drive Overpass

Spiritual Healer Astrologer & Advisor

Upcoming Traﬃc Pattern Changes and Construction Drivers are advised that beginning early March 2011 through fall 2011, construction and permanent traffic pattern changes will occur in two phases at the 176th Street Interchange and Barnston Drive in Surrey. These changes are necessary to construct an overpass at Barnston Drive East, connecting the communities of Fraser Heights and Abbey Ridge.

Are you unhappy in love, marriage and business? Do you feel someone has done you wrong? Are you or a loved one having problems with drugs, alcohol, legal matters, immigration, school, work or ﬁnancial problems? Are negative and evil forces such as kala jadoo taking over your life?

I will heal the sick, cure any skin disorder, childless couples becomes parents, reunite the separated, stop loved ones from marrying outside their faith and culture and restore happiness to you and your family.

Phase 1 (Early March 2011 to late March 2011) • Creation of work areas along both sides of 176th Street will begin for construction of the Barnston Drive Overpass requiring slight shifts in the alignment of 176th Street between 100th Avenue and 104th Avenue. •

Construction of a new intersection at 177A Street and Daly Road will begin. When complete this intersection will provide local residents with alternate access to 176th Street and Highway 1.

•

On March 11, 2011, the southern intersection of Barnston Drive East and 176th Street will be permanently closed. Traffic on 176th Street will still be able to access Highway 1 westbound.

Phase 2 (Late spring to summer 2011) • The northern intersection of Barnston Drive East and 176th Street will be permanently closed.

•

In July 2011, following completion of the 2010/2011 school year, the intersection at 100th Avenue and 176th Street will be permanently closed.

Once complete in fall 2011, local residents will see a reduction in highway traffic diverting through local streets and will have access to a new intersection at Daly Road, providing local traffic with access to Highway 1 via 176th Street and connections to Fraser Heights via 104th Avenue.

she thinks will get them back in the game. “If I was starting a business, I’d say there’s an untapped market there. I just have to find out what’s important to them. I have to listen to the voters.” Why politics? Keeping said she’s good at pointing out what’s wrong with the way things are run, now it’s time she became part of the solution. At the urging of NDP MLA Sue Hammell, Keeping decided to put her name up for election. Her years at NAGS have taught her to be collaborative in her approach to getting things done and have made her a good listener, traits Keeping believes will stand her in good stead in politics. Keeping believes she can use collabora-

tive methods to create an effective opposition to the Conservative government. She said the riding deserves better representation in Ottawa. “When I’m elected, it won’t just be about representing my friends or party members. It will be about representing everyone.” Keeping acknowledged the difficulty in unseating Hiebert in a riding that has voted Conservative for about 40 years, but believes it can be done. “It’s about giving people hope that their lives can be better. This is known as an affluent riding, but there are people here who rely on the food bank. What about them?” The NDP riding association nomination meeting is scheduled for 2 p.m., Sunday at the Ocean Park Community Hall, 1577 128th St.

Paradise found will remain closely guarded secret My wife and I recently bought a house on one of the Southern Gulf Islands, a small chunk of paradise that shall remain Ted nameless. COLLEY It shall remain nameless because if I told you how freakin’ great the place is, you’d all want to go there and that wouldn’t be good. Nothing personal, you understand, it’s just the way of things. Paradise + Too many people = Paradise Lost. And we are talking paradise here. Just 20 minutes down the road from our house is a wonderful sandy beach looking out onto a cluster of smaller islands. You get there along winding country roads lined with quaint (and often quirky) cabins, cottages and houses. The island’s population is small, but grows considerably during the summer months.

a perfect start to our life there. In other news, how about that Charlie Sheen? Wonder how long it will be before he joins Cousin Eddie in seeking asylum in Canada from the Hollywood star whackers. His antics of late have got him bounced from his hit TV sitcom, Two and a Half Men. They’ve also clarified the show’s title for me. I always thought the Half referred to the kid who plays Sheen’s nephew. Think I got that wrong. Sheen could counter his firing with a show of his own called Two and a Halfwit. Next, politics is the pursuit of power and, as we all know, power corrupts. Hands up anyone who remembers the moral superiority assumed by Harperite Conservatives before Little Stevie Wonder moved into 24 Sussex Drive. They preached loud and long against Liberal abuses in a manner reminiscent of Elmer Fudd ranting about “wascally wabbits.” What a disappointment it must be to the party faithful to realize their guys are morally no better.

The Conservatives are in hot water once again with House Speaker Peter Milliken for misleading Parliament (and you, gentle reader) about the true cost of buying a fleet of jet fighters to replace the aging F-18s currently serving as Canada’s frontline warplane. Stevie and the kids told us $16 billion, all in. The Parliamentary Budget Office took a look at the numbers and says nope, try somewhere in the neighbourhood of $29 billion. Hey look, Harper’s nose just grew three inches. Then there’s the Bev Oda affair. She lied, too. Three more inches. Milliken also rapped government knuckles for withholding information about the full cost of its crime bills and tax cuts from a Parliamentary finance committee. Apparently, when the rules don’t suit the Self-righteously Honourable Stephen Harper and his pals, they just ignore them. It’s good to be the king.

Christy Clark cartoon sums up situation with humour The Editor, The March 8 cartoon on Christy Clark’s win is excellent. It captures the irony and essence of her win, with some black humour thrown in. It’s priceless. With almost no support from the caucus during the election, she rules the roost now.

Teens do care about politics, make effort to be informed The Editor, Re: “It’s inexcusable that my fellow teens are uninformed,” letters, the Now, Feb. 25. As I read the newspaper on Friday, I was appalled while reading a letter written by a fellow reader. Her opinions seem to state the turmoil that is occurring in the Middle East right now, regarding Colonel Gaddafi and Libya, does not interest her peers as much as “petty television shows do.” I found myself shaking my head. So

an assumption was made about an entire demographic simply based on what was seen, or in fact not seen, on a Facebook newsfeed? Sounds rather peculiar. Sure, she has a point when she says that as teenagers, current events may not be our top priority. However, to say that we have no interest in the matter is completely outrageous. At my high school, there is a course called Social Justice and it is offered to senior students. It is a class in which we are able to hold debates about certain topics, such as Aboriginal rights and racism, and have class discussions regarding current world events. This year, there has been one class each

semester; both of which have been filled with students of varied ethnicities, opinions and socioeconomic status. Every morning for the past two weeks, we have begun class with a 10-minute talk about the Middle East. Often, our planned 10 minutes becomes a full-fledged one-hour discussion on what the students believe will happen within the next few days and further into the future with this phenomenal revolution. Most students I know, even those not enrolled in this class, are actually actively following the news regarding Libyans, whether it be via internet or television. Teenagers are not ignorant people! I have to say, while our generation is not perfect, we are aware of what is going on around us and we have views on important subjects. It is inevitable that one day, these issues will be ours to deal with and I have faith that we will combat them with success.

The Editor, The recent disingenuous response by Dimitri Soudas, director of communications in Stephen Harper’s PMO, to public outrage concerning the replacement on government documents of “The Government of Canada” by “The Harper Government” is self-serving partisan politics, an abuse of the term. Within Parliament the government is the prime minister and cabinet. That is understood and within the context of Parliament that is accepted practice. Just as when the Harper government and the Harper party stated falsely in the 2008 prorogation crisis that a parliamentary vote of nonconfidence and the options available to the governor general to ask another MP to form a government or the Leader of the Opposition to form a coalition government was to usurp the Harper government, undemocratic, or unparliamentary, the Harper government’s statements are false. Canada is a parliamentary democracy and a constitutional monarchy. We elect Parliaments, not parties, not prime ministers. Governors general represent the head of state, the Queen. Prime ministers are the Queen’s first ministers in the government of Canada in Parliament. Governments are accountable to Parliament and serve the sovereign who represents the sovereignty of the people. It is “The Harper Government” which seeks to usurp democracy, our constitutional monarchy and the supremacy of Parliament.

❚ WHAT’S ON

Folk singer/songwriter Shari Ulrich performs in the living room of Madeline Hombert’s Surrey residence during a Feb. 13 concert staged with the help of Home Routes, a grassroots group that books musicians into homes across Canada. ❚PHOTO/Tom Zillich

Move the coffee table, here comes the musician Home Routes concert finds Juno Award winner playing at a Surrey house TheBuzz

“Did anyone see where I put my water?” asked Shari Ulrich as members of her audience laughed and pointed in the direction of the missing plastic bottle, found on a coffee table. On this night, a violin rested on a couch on one side of the Juno Awardwinning artist’s “stage.” To her left, a Tom guitar neck poked through the leaves of ZILLICH a potted palm tree. On the rug, cables snaked toward the microphone stand, keyboard and pair of speakers. Relaxed and quick with conversation on a recent Sunday night, Ulrich plugged in and entertained in Madeline Hombert’s living room, a Panorama Ridge-area abode turned intimate concert venue for the night. With $20 tickets in hand, 21 of Hombert’s neighbours, friends and acquaintances converged to hear Ulrich sing her folkie songs and tell tales of how they were written and, quite often over the course of two hours, why,

where, when and with whom. “Luckily, I’m a very social person,” Ulrich told the Now before the evening gig, part of a tour organized with the help of Home Routes, a grassroots group that books musicians into homes across Canada. “It’s a very cool concept,” said Ulrich, on her second tour of duty with Home Routes last month. “The artist is dropped in the middle of these family settings. You definitely have to be comfortable staying in the teenager’s bedroom, or wherever, and having dinner with total strangers.… I really enjoy it and, by the end of it, I’ve made new friends.” For the first two weeks of February, Ulrich drove her vehicle to similar house concerts in towns and cities on B.C.’s “Salmonberry Circuit,” as it’s dubbed by Home Routes, with 13 other solo/duo acts doing the same in other provinces during that time period. Hombert read about Winnipeg-based Home Routes in Reader’s Digest and decided to give it a try, committing to host six concerts in 2011. Her application was

approved last November, soon followed by a mailer with CDs of music by artists signed to perform the first three shows. “You don’t get a choice of musician, because they are assigned tour routes,” explained Hombert. For Home Routes shows, the concert host is responsible for feeding the artist and providing a room for the night, with 100 per cent of the night’s proceeds going to the performer. At Hombert’s house, Ulrich arrived at 1:30 p.m. to find the homeowner had already set up a “stage” area in the family room. After Ulrich toured the house, however, the two agreed to move the gig to the living room, blessed with better acoustics and sight lines. There isn’t much room for error in a space of that size, with attentive people not far from her bare feet, and Ulrich skillfully sang and strummed through a set of beautiful music.

Dinner and a place to sleep for musician on stage in house  continued from page 17

“I was very impressed by Shari’s music — incredibly emotional,” said Hombert, a writer by trade. “Her songs really hit home with the audience, the lyrics. Her voice certainly hasn’t weakened over the years, either.” During the concert intermission, Ulrich talked up the wares of her “merch” (merchandise) table, which had copies of her latest CD, Find Our Way, along with a donation bucket and book of email addresses and notes of thanks scribbled by fans at

her previous shows. Earlier in the evening, dinner for Ulrich and others offered quiche made with chicken, broccoli and cheese, followed by a nice spread of drinks, sandwiches and desserts Hombert had set out for guests of the 7 p.m. concert. The following day, the homeowner packed Ulrich some coffee and lunch for her ferry trip to Vancouver Island, and she was gone. “It was a great experience, the whole thing,” Hombert said. Next up at the “Hombert Hacienda” is a March 15 date featuring Corin Raymond and Jonathan

Byrd, followed by Ontario musician Jadea Kelly on April 13. The lineup for the three fall concerts isn’t yet confirmed, but Hombert will certainly keep her guest list to friends, neighbours and “referrals” — not the general public. “And I’m serving supper for free,” wrote Hombert in an event advisory. “No exorbitant fees, no long drives, no pay parking, no lineups at the coffee stand, no need for binoculars to see the star.” Visit homeroutes.ca for details about the group that hosts house concerts. tzillich@thenownewspaper.com

Young ‘unsung heroes’ wanted for awards hosted by Rotary Clubs in Delta The Rotary Clubs of Delta are searching for “unsung heroes” as part of the yearly Delta Rotary Youth Awards. Young people will be recognized in five categories, including Compassion/ Empathy, Inner Strength, Difficulty, Helping Hand and Global. It’s not your typical

honour roll or sports-star awards, according to event organizer Andrew Block, president of Delta Pacific Benefit Brokers. “For the past three years, the three Rotary Clubs in Delta (Tsawwassen, North Delta and Ladner) have gone out to the community and asked for student nominees who have help others,

done an international project, demonstrated compassion for others or achieved personal victory over adversity,” he said. “The nominations are often met with eyes of tears as we read what many of these young people have been through, which quickly turn to tears of joy when you read how they reacted.”

The nomination deadline of March 15 is fast approaching, with an awards night set for May 14. Submissions should include nominees’ name, address, phone number and category, and can be mailed to P.O. Box 1405, Delta, B.C., V4M 3Y8 or dropped off at Delta Pacific Benefit Brokers, #300-6935 120th St., Delta.

❚ WHAT’S ON ❚NEW ON DVD

Aren’t the ‘Jackass’ jokers getting old for this?

Jackass 3 Directed by Jeff Tremaine. Starring Johnny Knoxville, Bam Mergera, Steve-O and Chris Pontius. My rating: 5 (out of 10) The Jackass films are like crack: great fun while you’re doing it no doubt, but it eats your brain a little bit at a time. There is fun to be had here, but there is also crap – literally and figuratively – that shouldn’t be seen by anyone. By the way, parents: Jackass may look a little like America’s Funniest Videos, but the penis cam, poo volcano and “helicockter” all mean that this is not kid-appropriate stuff! Personally, I thought the funniest moments involved a jet engine and two guys playing tether ball with a hive full of bees, though I still can’t figure out how the gang can get this stuff past the humane society. Whether you consider the asinine shenanigans of Johnny Knoxville, Wee Man, Steve-O et al the end of humanity or you think this stuff’s hilarious, it may be difficult to shake the feeling that these guys are a little old to be doing this, and that they’re laughing a little too hard. Case in point: the special features, which show the boys trying to keep the hilarity coming as they film the same stunt over and over to get it just right. 3D glasses are included, and there’s a decent making-of feature and outtakes on the standard disc.

Little more than a 110-min. music video

Burlesque Written and directed by Steve Antin. Starring Christina Aguilera, Cher, Cam Gigandet, Stanley Tucci and Kristen Bell. My rating: 4 (out of 10) Burlesque, the 110-minute-long sexy music video that is a cross between Showgirls and Cabaret, is coochie cliché made watchable only by the awesome power of Christina Aguilera’s voice. The singer starts belting ’em out before the opening credits roll, as her Ali prepares to leave her dusty Iowa town and head for the bright lights of L.A. Once there she stumbles into a burlesque club run by an intimidating proprietress (Cher) and a sage gay costumer (Stanley Tucci), and Ali finds her true calling. She meets the right guy

(Cam Gigandet), falls for the wrong guy (Eric Dane) and feuds with the club’s reigning diva (Kristen Bell), but plot is secondary to the music and bump-and-grind numbers. Aguilera should stick to singing; so far, acting does not seem to be her forte. Once an Oscar winner, Cher too is oddly wooden, though there’s no denying that the gal can rock a corset better than girls a third of her age. Steve Antin’s script does not serve the talented Stanley Tucci or Kristen Bell, both reduced to silliness.

Anchors away in ‘Morning Glory’

Morning Glory Directed by Roger Michell. Starring Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford, Diane Keaton. My rating: 7 (out of 10) In Morning Glory, Rachel McAdams stars as Becky, the pluckiest little TV producer you have ever seen, who is tasked with turning around the dismal ratings of a morning TV show. First thing she does is fire Colleen’s (Diane Keaton) lecherous co-anchor and bring in Mike (Harrison Ford), a hard-news man who is only there because of a loophole is his contract. And so begins Becky’s frenetic race to save the show from cancellation while massaging the egos of her anchors: Colleen is bitter about making less than Mike, Mike refuses to do morning’s requisite touchyfeely stories about dieting and Easter chicks. Glued to her Blackberry, as all producers are, can Becky possible juggle a romance, too? Nice performances all ‘round, though Canadian gal McAdams is so high on the cutesy-neurotic charts, your teeth might start to hurt. Becky is so perpetually flustered that I had trouble buying that hunky Patrick Wilson would hang around for her. Still, it’s nice to see the actress wrangle a true lead role after co-starring in such films as The Notebook, Wedding Crashers and Red Eye. ❚ On opposite ends of the viewing spectrum are Weeds: Season Six and Bambi, diamond edition. In season six, Nancy (Mary Louise Parker) and the extended family are on the run from the law and the Mexican mafia, and even anti-drug viewers will root for the pot-dealing mom.

While you’re watching that, the kids can enjoy the Disney classic Bambi. In addition to fan- and kidfriendly special features, the diamond edition is the

first film in which Disney has released its “Second Screen” technology: you can download the new Disney Second Screen App onto an internet-connected

computer or iPad and synch it to the movie, giving you a ton of interactive elements like animated flipbooks, galleries, photos, trivia and more.

Mother Nature’s little helpers “I’m warning you right Michael BOOTH now, these are addictive,” Staff Reporter the featured speaker said ominously. More than 50 people turned out to a South Surrey church on a snowy Saturday morning in late February to attend a special seminar addressing a super bug that has become all the rage across the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island. Medical crisis? Uh, no. Strange side effects from drugs? Nope. Looming global pandemic? Uh uh. Gardening? Bingo — more specifically, a super bug that pollinates at a prodigious rate, helping flowering plants thrive and stressing the limbs of fruit trees with bumper crops. We’re talking B.O.M.B.s here folks — Blue Orchard Mason Bees, a native species in British Columbia that has been embraced by homeowners as a natural solution to pollination problems. After creating tension with the addiction comment, speaker Steve Dreve of Busy B Creations provided a punch line: “If you buy some, I tell people they should buy a chair at the same time because it’s easy to get obsessed with them. Just pull up a chair with your morning coffee and watch them go to work.” Dreve’s presentation was arranged by Cathy Steele, manager of Surrey’s Wild Birds Unlimited store, in response to the increased interest her customers have shown in the little buzzing BOMBs. Steele knew people wanted to learn more about the subject, but mason bees have grown so popular she had to book Dreve months in advance due to his busy schedule. “We’ve been carrying mason bees and mason bee houses for almost 20 years but in the last five years, the interest level in them has really increased,” she said. “I never used to sell out of bees or houses, but I do now.” Jamie Vander Zalm at Art Knapps garden centre in Surrey echoed Steele’s amazement at the popularity of the bugs. “When we first got into them I thought, ‘Who is going to buy bees? Who’s going to get this, understand it?’ But it seems to be something that’s not too difficult for the average Joe to introduce into the backyard,” Vander Zalm said. “That surprised me because I thought it might be too technical but obviously that’s not the case. We sell lots of them, although I do find it tends to be an earthier, nature-oriented kind of person who buys them.” So what are these little marvels? Put bluntly, they are a native species of bee that emerges each spring just in time to feed and collect pollen from early blooming flowers and fruit trees. Roughly the size of a thumbnail, mason bees — Osmia lignaria propinqua to biologists — have dark bodies with an iridescent blue hue that makes them look almost like freakishly large houseflies. Mason bees live for just four to six weeks before dying, which means from the moment they emerge from their cocoons, their biological clocks are ticking — literally. Males breed with the emerging females and then die, leaving her to complete the task of propagation of the species. In this short window she will complete the job of collecting food, laying eggs and creating individual cells for her young to develop in. Each mason bee works alone, bringing nectar and pollen back to the nest, which in

Mason bee cocoons are loaded into a hatching chamber atop a stack of nesting blocks. A female will lay eggs on a pile of collected pollen and then seal the chamber with a wall of mud. Each tube will yield five to six cocoons. ❚PHOTO/Paul vanPeenen nature is usually a long, narrow fissure with limited access from one end. Holes bored by beetles are preferred in the wild but gardeners can lend them a hand with special custom nesting blocks. The female lays one egg on a pile of pollen and then collects mud to seal it off and begin work on gathering more food and mud supplies for the next cell. When the egg hatches, the larva feeds on the amassed pollen before spinning a cocoon where it develops into adulthood. It then remains dormant through the fall and winter months before it emerges in mid-March to complete the cycle again. The female’s task-oriented focus on food gathering and egg laying lends itself to another trait humans find appealing — mason bees won’t sting unless it’s the last resort. “One of the reasons they’re so popular is these guys are not apt to sting,” said Dr. Margriet Dogterom, a Coquitlam-based mason bee expert who has written a book about the species. “They can sting but, because they’re solitary and aren’t protecting a hive, they’re not aggressive. People describe them as the gentle bee. “Stinging is the last thing they want to do

because they are so focused on the job of collecting food and producing offspring. Even if you grab one, they’ll actually vibrate like crazy and it’s just an awful feeling.” Growing numbers of gardeners have caught on to the benefits of mason bees. Some people like the natural approach to pollination while others, mindful of problems that have afflicted commercial honeybee stocks, want to do their part to give Mother Nature a helping hand. The biggest benefit for gardeners, however, is the mason bees’ role as a superb pollinator. Where the honeybee operates at less than 10 per cent efficiency in spreading pollen, mason bees check in at over 90 per cent, thanks to tiny hairs all over their abdomen and a propensity for plopping down in the middle of flowers. This makes nature’s buzz BOMBs an attractive fit for most urban gardeners. “Suburbia, with all the flowers and gardening around, provides a phenomenal amount of food for bees,” Dogterom said. “Gardeners are probably going to be much more successful with mason bees than if you plunked

Are we hurting our buzzing buddies – again?

Blue Orchard Michael BOOTH Mason Bees Staff Reporter may be the wonder bug of the moment for gardeners, but have we put them on a path that ends with us wondering, ‘What happened?’ Like the honeybee and bumblebee populations before them, mason bees could be come the next species of pollinators exploited by humans to the point where their population suffers a catastrophic breakdown. Gordon Hutchings, a Vancouver Island biologist with 20 years of experience studying the assorted native bee species in British Columbia, is concerned mason bees are being promoted for their commercial potential without proper attention to what may be best for the species. “The reason mason bees are so popular is because they are easy to capture and manage by humans,” Hutchings said. “That’s the difference between them and more than 200 other species of native bees. The orchard mason bee is a great pollinator, it’s way better than the honeybee and we’ve put so much energy into that species and now look at the problems they’re having. “The same thing with bumblebees — they’re having problems now because we’ve been doing similar things to them. And now it’s mason bees and we’re mixing species and subspecies and shipping them around. When we do that, the parasitoids and parasites go with them.” If humans need an example of what can go wrong when we “help” a bee species, British Columbians need look no farther than the plight of the western bumblebee (Bombus occidentalis). A native species to this province, western bumblebees were identified as a superb pollinator and put to work in assorted agricultural enterprises. The bee population became concentrated, leaving them vulnerable to disease, which in turn ravaged their populations. Today western bumblebees are considered scarce in most parts of southern B.C. — a region in which they were once plentiful. “That’s a perfect example of what can happen,” Hutchings said. “It was a highly commercialized bee and it’s been subjected to two really bad pathogens. The reason for that is because it’s easier to spread in a controlled monoculture (one species living close together in a controlled environment). It’s the same with humans when a disease rips right through a population. If it was a wild stock, the levels of the pathogens would be kept in check but when we harbour them and concentrate them, it’s much easier

them down in an open area where there’s just grass. All the mason bees need is food — early spring flowers and, or course, fruit trees. If you have continuous blooms throughout the spring, that will feed the bees and create lots of offspring for next year’s pollination season.” Dogterom, who runs her own mason bee supply business (beediverse.com), said the bees start out as a natural solution to a problem, but often evolve into something more. Like a Zamboni circling an ice rink, people can’t help but watch the bees at work. The next thing they know, they’re following Dreve’s advice with a folding chair and their morning coffee. “They’re a window into nature,” Dogterom said. “You have a house set up for them so you know where the bees are if you want to see them. In wildlife photography or observations, you don’t often know where the animals will be. So if you have a house for the nest, you know where they are and can watch them at work. “Mason bees can be a great retirement hobby because it grabs guys’ attention because they can build gadgets for them and then watch the bees at work.” She added with a laugh: “Retired guys have time on their hands and this is one way to stay out of their wives’ hair.” Dogterom has been spreading the word about mason bees since 1999 and she

admits it wasn’t always easy to convince gardeners to give the BOMBs a try. The tide has slowly turned and, in the past five years, interest in these super pollinators has grown rapidly to the point where gardening supply stores have a hard time keeping up with demand. “I think the interest is going to continue to grow,” Dogterom said. “Eventually almost every yard will have a mason bee house, just like every yard has a bird house now.”

for them to spread.” Hutchings said while the mason bees are indeed a great pollinator for early spring flowers and fruit crops, they are by no means the only answer to a gardener’s quest for pollination solutions. Hummingbirds are also good pollinators but they are hard to control. Among insects, British Columbia has hundreds of native bee species that help with pollination and they do so for much longer time periods than the limited window in the spring when the mason bees are active. “Blue orchard mason bees are shortlived and you are not going to get any benefits from them past the last week in May,” he said. “That’s it, they’re done. But there are still lots of crops and flowering plants out there so then what are you going to rely on? Well, there’s all kinds of small, obscure bees out there and, of course, there’s bumblebees.” According to Hutchings, 70 per cent of pollinators in the province are ground nesting species such as bumblebees. Many of these species don’t sport the traditional black and yellow striped markings we associate with bees, so when we are fortunate enough to see them at work on a blossom, we don’t make the ‘bee + flower + pollen = good’ connection. Mason bees are black with shiny blue

patches on their bodies and don’t look like our accepted image of a bee. But because of their docility, humans are now exploiting them in their gardens — yards that ironically have been rendered uninhabitable for other native bee species that used to live where pesticideladen, over-fertilized lawns now stretch out in all their glorious human-approved esthetic greenness.

GORD HASTINGS/ “Mason bees are short-lived and you are not going to get any benefits from them past the last week in May.” “Mason bees are really not that much better at pollinating than other species of bees — they’re just more visible and, for lack of a better word, we can capture and harness them and that’s why they are more visible to us,” he said. “For some people it’s like having a wild pet. You can have a wild raccoon come to your deck but it’s much harder to attract other species. “There’s a whole wide range of species of bees that live in the ground that are phenomenal pollinators as well but we’ve wrecked their habitat. I try to educate people about the relationship between habitat requirements, those bees and your crops.”

The world’s a stage, said the Bard, and we are merely actors upon the stage. Uh-huh, Will, we’ve moved beyond that a bit. Now we have a Melanie world stage, and MINTY community stage — and just lots of actor wannabes knocking down doors (or is it knocking on doors?), just for their moment on a “real” stage. OK, so sometimes it isn’t actors knocking, it’s opportunity. So you want to be on stage plying your craft, but there just aren’t enough places or parts available. Competition is tight — even in community theatre, even for the very talented. So why not start a new theatre company, provide opportunities for more folks. I have often heard – and seen – that South Surrey and White Rock really hold their own in the arts, and some even call it a cultural hot spot. Now there is a new theatre company, 16th Avenue Productions, ready to fly with its first production, Waiting for the Parade. Wendy Bollard, the company’s artistic director, couldn’t be happier. “I love living in South Surrey and I love theatre, so I decided to marry the two together.” You go, Wendy — and let me know when you might hold auditions for another production. Bollard, a professional actor and singer, has been an active member of the area’s cultural hot spot for the past five years. Before that, she was performing with her own band, singing with Dal Richards’ Orchestra and acting in Canada and internationally. OK, wow. Obviously she hasn’t been waiting for any parade, but making her own. Waiting for the Parade, by John

Bollard chose this play as the company’s first production because she has always loved the script and the story it tells. “We know how the story ends,” she says, “but those women didn’t know whether the war would be over in 10 days or 10 years.” The play runs at White Rock’s Coast Capital Playhouse from April 28 to May 7.

You can check out the festival website for the shows and schedules (www. bardonthebeach.org). Glad to hear they are adding more seats because if you wait too long, you are out of luck. I think I’ll try for the Bard-B-Que or the fireworks night or something like that. This Bard business is popular and the world – literally – comes to our stage.

In this day and age, a man possessing the sincerity and gee-whiz values of Tim Lippe (rhymes with ‘dippy’) is a rare thing indeed. But a movie that doesn’t want to strip him naked and offer his naivete up for mean-spirited ridicule is almost non-existent. OK, so our Tim (played with guileless charm by Ed Helms) does get naked, a lot. And we do chuckle, a little. But there’s none of the smugness that frequently accompanies such fish-out-of-water stories. Thank director Miguel Arteta, known for edgier films like Chuck and Buck, The Good Girl and Youth In Revolt, along with screenwriter Phil Johnston, for sparing Tim the full wrath of our urban cynicism. Their affection for Tim and his oldfashioned values is on full display here. Tim is an insurance salesman who has never been outside his own sleepy Wisconsin town, a town so small that the pool of beddable women is reduced to a puddle, including Tim’s seventh-grade teacher (a saucy Sigourney Weaver). Tim has been remarkably insulated from the outside world until his boss (Stephen Root) sends him to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, for an insurance convention, instructing him to bring home the coveted Two Diamonds award, and to avoid notorious convention party-boy Dean Ziegler (John C. Reilly). It’s Tim’s first time on a plane and in a hotel. “The whole place smells like chlorine,” he gushes of the courtyard pool. “It’s like I’m in Barbados!” So it’s a coming-of-age movie, though Tim’s age is more advanced than usual. He’s never told a lie, never had a drink, never trusted guys with ponytails. Of

Together with Joan (Anne Heche), these seasoned convention veterans introduce Tim to a world of teambuilding BS and partying that takes the wide-eyed yokel to all sorts of places he’s never been. Ultimately, Tim bonds with the guys, the first real age-appropriate friends he’s had, while Joan is an opportunity to have carnal knowledge of someone not old enough to be his mother. Helms specializes in such roles, playing a put-upon dentist in The Hangover, a Cornell glee-club alum in The Office and a straight-laced correspondent on Jon Stewart’s The Daily Show, and he’s excellent here. Ditto the supporting cast, though I’m not sure Reilly’s character needed to so creatively foul-mouthed, especially when Tim would be shocked by far less. Though the mischief is predictable, the wit of the script is not. Tim doesn’t succumb to a raunchy makeover, not quite. And that’s a big part of the film’s charm: the novel notion that good guys can go to the dark side and come back to dweebdom (relatively) unscathed.

Arts expeditions for tweens, teens at Surrrey Arts Centre

❚SPRING BREAK ACTIVITIES

‘Spring Skate’ outdoors at Morgan Crossing

The weather is getting warmer, but they’re planning to skate at Morgan Crossing this spring break — thanks to synthetic ice at the South Surrey shopping plaza. The “Spring Skate” event runs from March 19 to 23, daily from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. The skating is made possible because the rink uses a state-ofthe-art synthetic surface. Skate rentals are available by donation, with 100 per cent of profits going to the Canadian Cancer Society. The rink will be officially unveiled to the public by Surrey Coun. Mary Martin

and Coun. Barinder Rasode at a ribboncutting ceremony at noon March 19. Surrey Eagles mascot Winger will also be on hand to skate with kids.

Surrey Arts Centre has two weeks of hands-on activities during spring break, from March 21 to April 1. Sessions led by art educators and practising artists are geared to teens and tweens interested in the arts. The teen years are all about trying new things, so these sessions are a chance to test options with arts samplers. The often unseen world of backstage theatre production is revealed in “Behind the Scenes: A Theatre Sampler,” where a script becomes a launch pad to explore different elements, ranging from directing to design, and stage management to technical production. In “Visual Arts Sampler,” experts guide the discovery of five arts, including ceramics, watercolours, acrylics, printmaking and drawing.

Developed especially for tweens, the “Art of Theatre Day Camp” is the “ultimate expedition for arts explorers — a chance to use your voice and body to bring a character to life and create original costumes and props that will appear in the final performance” in the venue’s studio theatre.

POSTMEDIA COMMUNITY PUBLISHING REAL ESTATE PROFILE

UNIQUE, INDIVIDUAL. YOUR HOME, YOUR CHOICE. The best word to describe SUN at 72, Solterra’s latest townhome community, is “unique”. Unique architecture, unique layout options and unique upgrades. A new housing opportunity that screams “different” - but in a good way.

ast Clayton in the near future will have a little more ﬂare with the addition of SUN at 72 - an exciting, new community of 89 - 2, 3 and 4 bedroom - townhomes by award-winning builder, Solterra. The bold, striking architecture of SUN at 72 features West Coast contemporary lines and bright, playful exterior colours, and will be a refreshing change to the myriad of Craftsman style housing in the area. “These new homes will have an urban edge and Kitsilano feel, and be unlike anything else in East Clayton. We wanted to build something distinct for those buyers who want the big city feel, but choose to live in the Cloverdale / Langley area”, says Laura Rizzo, VP Marketing.

Another appealing characteristic of SUN at 72 is the long menu of options available; thereby, allowing you to customize your home until it is the ideal ﬁt for your own needs and lifestyle. Whether simply choosing the perfect colour scheme to compliment your personality, or choosing between possible layout options that provide additional bathrooms, bedrooms, and closets, SUN at 72 is all about choice. “With this community, we wanted to offer our home buyers an opportunity to have a say in the design of their home – and making sure it suits their living needs as best as possible. Being one of only a few pre-construction opportunities in the area, we are able to offer our buyers a level of customization that other developers can’t,” Laura explains.

Eagles impressive in Game 2 win

A best-ofMichael BOOTH seven series is Sports Editor now a best-offour after the Surrey Eagles and the Langley Chiefs split the first two games of their B.C. Hockey League quarter-final playoff set at South Surrey Arena this week. Langley took the opener 4-3 on Monday night only to have the Eagles storm back to dump the Chiefs 6-1 in a penalty-filled affair the following evening. The archrivals finished two points apart in the regular season standings and, as expected, their third playoff meeting in as many years is shaping up to be a long one. With the teams so closely matched, special teams will play prominent role, as they did Tuesday night when Surrey scored three power-play goals and added another moments after a Langley penalty expired. At the other end of the ice, Surrey has allowed just one power play goal in six playoff games — five of them wins. “Special teams are something we’ve really focused on in our practises and video sessions,” said

Eagles coach Matt Erhart. “If you can eliminate those special teams goals allowed, you’re going to have a good chance to win every night. Special teams are so important in the playoffs because everything is so tight five-on-five now.” On Tuesday night in South Surrey, the Eagles took a page from the Langley playbook and employed a physical approach to the game right from the opening whistle. The aggressive mindset paid off as the Eagles mustered 18 shots on the Langley goalie Wyatt Galley, three of which ended up in the back of the net for a comfortable 3-0 lead. Surrey pushed their lead to 5-0 in the middle frame before Langley’s Austin Plevy scored to spoil Surrey goalie Karel St-Laurent’s shutout bid. The third period degenerated into a steady parade of players to the penalty box as a reward for the escalating chippiness to the play. Surrey finally wrapped up the scoring when Hayden Trupp notched the Eagles’ third power-play goal of the night. Brad McGowan and Josh Monk each has three assists to

lead the Eagles’ scoring while goals came from the sticks of Daniel Gentzler, Colton Mackie, Scott Holm, Robert Lindores and Tyler Morley. “I think we were the aggressor early in the game and that’s why we got the lead,” Erhart said. “We played with a lot of emotion and passion and we took it to them early. We played well with the lead and we kept our composure and didn’t back down from them. Langley likes to play physical and we knew that. We wanted to push back hard at them and see how they would react. It worked well for us and moving forward that’s a good thing to know.” Monday’s opening game was a seesaw affair that featured three lead changes before Langley’s Darnell Dyck potted the winning goal in the third period. Galley had a strong game in the Langley nets, making timely saves that ultimately turned out to be the difference. “We had a lot chances in that game that we didn’t capitalize on,” Erhart said. “Galley played really well and made some saves that

made you think, ‘where did he come from?’ We had a few breakdowns in coverage and if you give them a bunch of quality chances, they’re going to capitalize and they did that night.” McGowan, Holm and Lindores provided the goals for Surrey while Langley’s Matt Ius finished with a goal and two assists. The series shifted to the Langley Events Centre for Game 4 Thursday night after the Now’s press deadline. Game 5 goes tonight at 7 p.m. Erhart said the shift from Surrey’s Olympic-sized home sheet to the smaller rink in Langley should not affect play too much. “Langley’s rink is pretty much an NHL-sized rink, but it’s still narrower than ours,” he said. “We seem to play pretty well there this year aside from one game where we didn’t show up to play. We’ve done well there and the rink shouldn’t be as big a factor as it was when we went to Coquitlam (in round one) where the rink is 25 feet narrower.” The teams return to South Surrey Sunday for a 4 p.m. start to Game 5.

golf report Three advance in Imperial Cup play

A caddy very seldom leaves unless he feels his player can’t make it back to his A game. On the weekend Mike had his last chance to earn $225,000 or lose his most precious possession if you’re a golfer: his PGA Tour card. When it counted most, when he had to dig down, he wound up shooting 77-85 and finished last. It now begs the question: Is Mike Weir’s PGA career over? Hard to believe that it was only eight years ago when Canadians were glued to their TV sets watching Mike win the Masters and Tiger Woods holding out the green jacket for Mike to slip into. Young kids who wanted to play hockey, were now thinking about picking up clubs, something that had never happened before in our country. Mike was rolling, winning eight tournaments from 2003-07. The fever lasted a long time. He was all over the TV from morning to night. He was living the life he wanted being honoured by his favourite sport—hockey. Johnny Miller, the acerbic golf host on NBC, said that Mike had the talent to go right to the top. Didn’t happen. Mike hasn’t won since 2007, and although he has had several medical problems, when he was healthy it just didn’t come together. The 40-year-old leftie from Brights Grove, Ont. can still play a lot of golf riding on his Master’s win and his top-50 money winner’s clause, but that is for only one year. Last week his stats did the talking. Going into the tournament he was 184th on the PGA Tour in driving average at 265.4 yards; 182nd in driving accuracy; 172nd in greens-in-regulation; 139th in putting average; 182nd in scoring average at 73.8. Mike has said he will make a statement this week. Maybe he will realize that a comeback from here would almost be impossible. Chip Shots Frank Chirkinian, the Ayatollah of golf television—the title was his—passed away last week at 84. Much of what you see on the tube these days was created by him for CBS. Multi camera shots, mikes on the ground, replays, blimps: it was all Chirkinian. He was called the Ayatollah because it was his way or the highway. Mr. Enthusiasm Brent Musberger was to host his first Masters several years back and Frank was worried that he might get into his enthusiastic college football voice. Frank said, “I’ll kill you if you raise your voice one-half decibel.” Despite the rhetoric there was a soft side and those who worked for him were extremely loyal. Long retired, the new young guns can now take what he has created and find new ways to show us the game. Here is something you can change. We don’t need to see that tight a shot of the ball when it’s in the air. You’re welcome. On that note, let’s hope for some warmer weather. You can reach me at preimer@canwest.com

Three SurreyMichael BOOTH area teams Sports Editor advanced to the quarter-final round of the Vancouver Metro Soccer League’s Imperial Cup playdowns, but two others are going home following second round losses. Defending champion Surrey United Firefighters hammered Croatia 5-0 in Cloverdale while ICST Pegasus squeaked past Delta United 3-2 and the Punjab Hurricanes blanked the Serbian White Eagles 3-0. Newton’s Akal FC was eliminated with a 2-0 loss to Metro Ford, joining Delta on the sidelines. The Imperial Cup tourney rewards its top four teams with automatic berths into the Provincial Cup championships, a reward that is especially appealing to a team near the bottom of the VMSL premier standings like the Hurricanes. The Newton club is being torn in three directions right now as they contend for the Imperial Cup, aspire for a berth in the Provincial Cup and battle to avoid relegation to the first division. “It’s ridiculous how important every game is right now,” said Punjab manager Billy Dhaliwal. “We almost wish we were able to finish the season off first so we could focus on the cup

games, because right now, the relegation battle is always in the back of our minds. “We want to do well in the Imperial Cup because it can give us a berth in the provincials but at the same time, we don’t want to make it to provincials and still get relegated. The whole thing is kind of distracting for us.” In Burnaby Sunday, the Hurricanes had little trouble plucking a win from the White Eagles by a comfortable three-goal margin. Bobby Jhutty netted a pair of goals for the Newton crew while Joey Brar scored once. Earlier in the day in Cloverdale, league-leading Surrey United breezed into the quarter-final round with a route of Croatia. The visitors’ chances were hampered by injuries to both goalkeepers. When substitute Nour Fathy went down in the second half, wounded starter Didar Sandhu was forced to return to finish the contest. Jeff Clarke opened the scoring for Surrey followed by a Croatian owngoal that put the Firemen up 2-0 at the break. Surrey then put the game out of reach in the second half with two more goals from Clarke and one from

Rizal Ganief. Meanwhile on the flats of East Delta, ICST Pegasus outlasted Delta United 3-2 at John Oliver Park. Delta opened the scoring in the 10th minute when Mark Gomes converted and pass from Gibson Barsdley only to have the Horsemen pull even five minutes later on a goal by Azad Palani. Pegasus then took the lead in the 30th minute when an alert Palani tapped in a loose ball for his second goal of the afternoon. Early in the second half Delta leveled the count when Barsdley banged home a rebound after Pegasus goalkeeper had made a big save on a Mike Gomes shot. Pegasus finally notched the winner in the 70th minute when Adam Costley’s diving header off a Niko Marcina found the top corner of the Delta mesh. Imperial Cup quarter-final action takes place this weekend. Pegasus hosts Westside at Newton Athletic Park tonight at 8:15 p.m. while Surrey United welcomes Sapperton to Cloverdale Athletic Park Saturday at 12:30 p.m. The Hurricanes take their show on the road to Richmond where the face the Hibernians Saturday at 2 p.m.

Peace Arch moves into Pakenham semis Peace Arch United moved one step closer to defending their Fraser Valley Soccer League Pakenham Cup title with a 3-2 win on penalty kicks over Langley last weekend. Playing at South Surrey Athletic Park against rival Langley Saturday, Peace Arch United appeared to have the game in hand in regulation only to have the visitors score late in injury time to force the match to be settled on spot shots.

to the occasion with a big save on Langley’s third PK attempt, a save that helped United prevail 5-4. Langley opened the scoring in the 20th minute but Peace Arch got that one back 10 minutes later when Jamie Williams collected a pass from Keegan Munn, sidestepped a defender and half-volleyed the ball into the top corner from 10 yards out. Peace Arch finally took the lead midway through the second half when Williams struck again, this time con-

verting a corner kick by Taki Vahalis. That goal appeared to be enough to give Peace Arch the win, but Langley spoiled the party with the injury time tally. The win lifted Peace Arch into the semifinal round where they will take on Athletic Club of B.C. March 20 at 2 p.m. in Port Moody. North Delta takes on PoCo FC in the other semifinal at 5 p.m. North Delta reached the semifinals with an emphatic 5-0 win over the Poco Gunners Sunday.

Cancer June 21-July 22: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness rise high Sunday to Tuesday, giving you the ability to cope with some major obstacles or problems that have existed for two or three years. Your luck, karma and self-image hit the lowest spot in two decades over the last year and a half. Now you’re beginning the long climb upward, back to the sunshine. Things turn Monday about noon – relationships, finances, security and intimacy take on a comfortable, healthy glow! Your money and career luck climb midweek. But you hit a familiar relationship drag Friday/Saturday: being light, friendly cures it. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Lie low, rest and contemplate Sunday to Tuesday noon. Don’t tempt fate. Tuesday afternoon might start with a rush, a sudden friendship, a brilliant idea, or merely a wee uplift – in whatever way, a small signal comes that the next eight years are going to be different – you are stepping into a zone of increased awareness and intellectual acuity, of increased and smoother love, more travel, more learning; and if single, you will very likely marry. Life is fresh, mysteries flee (well, soon)! Expect attention all midweek. Chase money but beware spending, Friday/Saturday. Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Be wary of investments, large financial undertakings, intimacy and any “private co-operation” Sunday – and all week. These are ethically OK Monday, but they still won’t yield practical profit. Work is reliable, though: you’re paid honestly, fairly. Relationships face some bumps, but you remain buoyant, and end happily. Retire for some rest and contemplation Tuesday noon to Thursday noon. Contacts with institutions, government or “head office” go well. Reconnect with spiritual realms. Your energy and charisma leap upward Thursday eve onward, but co-operation’s essential.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reﬂections Aries March 21 - April 19: This isn’t the easiest week. There aren’t any disasters (unless you’re impetuous Sunday or late week, Saturday).You’re just rowing against the wind in career, communications, media, travel, work and health zones. Plod onward, and get plenty of rest. Watch what you say or write Sunday and Friday/Saturday. Home’s no picnic Sunday and early Monday, but Monday p.m. into Tuesday noon brings a gratifying sense of emotional security and friendship. Contemplate romance midweek. Tackle chores (safely) Thursday onward. A brand new world of hope and friendship lies ahead! Taurus April 20-May 20: One more week of happiness, optimism, ﬂirting, new plans, life’s vigour, friendships and entertainment! It won’t be a totally smooth time, though. Sunday contains some communications foul-ups (beware gossip, secret acts, especially regarding a partner) after which you feel gloom Monday morning. But all’s smooth after this, especially in shopping and earning, Tuesday/ Wednesday. Romance, gambling urges and creative surges arrive Thursday noon to Saturday noon -- but you might have to choose between “two attractions” or two actions. A chore you didn’t do nags at you. Gemini May 21-June 20: Plug away at career, ambition, prestige or authority-related chores. (If something in this arena began in 2010 or last January, it’s still a winner.) Be careful with money – make a major purchase, seek a pay raise or deal with important clients after midday Monday, not before (nor Sunday). Short trips, communications, paperwork, casual friendships and errands go well midweek. But someone’s evasive or deceptive around noon Thursday. All week, your hopes might struggle against a financial, romantic, age or health barrier. Try this: conform to the barrier; make it an aid.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Your last week of work, drudgery and health concerns. Next week brings a month of fresh opportunities and excitement! For now, tackle chores so you’ll be free to chase those opportunities – some of which could involve love. Ambition, career and prestige relationships draw you Sunday to Tuesday noon. Co-operation will be lacking until Monday noon, so plan your most important moves for that p.m. Hopes, optimism, friendship and light ﬂirtation play around you Tuesday to Thursday – one of the most exciting relationship periods of your life is starting! Retreat, rest Friday. Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: You’re in a romantic, creative, beauty-aware time, and Sunday to Tuesday bring a mellow, understanding mood. Good – you’ll need all the understanding you can muster Sunday through noon Monday, when various obstacles try your patience, especially in the work arena. By noon this trend switches 180 degrees to success, and romance has a better than even chance, right into pre-dawn Tuesday. Your ambitions get a splendid opportunity Tuesday eve to early Thursday (unless you worry about security) – take the chance, early (Tuesday best). Optimism, happiness, popularity late week! Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: The accent remains on home, children, security, real estate, nature, stomach, soul and nurturing, for one more week. It isn’t the easiest week – romance and pleasure can’t seem to escape the realities of money and earnings. They’re intertwined, through late 2012. On the plus side, the same period (18 months) blesses you in emotional, serene, moral ways – you’ll feel good, right. (And you’ll be oddly protected from any disasters.) But don’t seek intimacy, sex nor investments Sunday. Gentle love, understanding and travel ideas enter mid-week. Be ambitious Thursday eve, Friday.

Mar. 13 - Mar. 19 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Communications, paperwork, details, errands, casual friends, short trips and curiosity ﬁll this week and next. In the slowest, most gradual way, like water on blotting paper, this area of your life will grow for the next 15 years. At the same time (perhaps illogically) your worries about money and income will fade. You enter eight years of “home excitement” this week. This can have a negative effect, bringing more stress to the home (so relax, exercise, guard digestion) and a positive one: money made from property, food/shelter areas. A big new life! Midweek joy, romance. Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Continue to chase money, but cautiously. This entire week, romance, gambling, sex, investments, lifestyle changes, secrets and “detective work” need to be handled carefully – or better yet, left alone, especially Sunday and Thursday onward.Tackle chores Sunday to Tuesday noon – follow safety rules Sunday/Monday. You glow with a certain sweet light all March, which can attract romantic attention. Tuesday afternoon to Thursday noon could provide some relationship excitement! Be diplomatic but eager these days. Secrets, “darker urges” arise Thursday/Friday – be honest, clean, safe. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness continue to put you on top. But this week has a couple of barriers which irk you a bit. They involve a partner, and/or your home situation, and/or money. (In all cases, money.) Ah, well, everything that has a compromise, has a solution. Sunday to Tuesday heightens your romantic, pleasure and beauty sensors. A creative surge arrives! (It’s better, easier, Monday p.m. onward.) Tackle chores midweek – you’ll do them swiftly, successfully. Good health news! Relationships present challenges Thursday to Saturday: be diplomatic, loving. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014

More of everything By David Chao

Environment

WHITE ROCK

You expect a quiet cabin in a vehicle with luxury intentions, but you also expect a diesel engine to be very loud. So, it’s seriously impressive just how well the Touareg TDI dampens the noise coming from under the hood. VW designers clearly paid attention to customer concerns, ﬁnding more space for everything. The front seats are roomy in all directions, while the rear seats slide and recline slightly. There’s more cargo space in the rear, and up front the Touareg beneﬁts from deep cupholders, a good-sized centre console, large map pockets, and an excellent glovebox. While upmarket models get a keyless start button, the base trim has a bulky key fob that has to be inserted fully into a socket and turned to start the engine. It’s a clumsy arrangement, and VW’s standard folding key would be much better. GPS navigation is standard equipment in every Touareg, and it comes with a great touchscreen instead of the control-wheel arrangements that we’re seeing in more and more vehicles. While the latter arrangement reduces glare on the LCD, touchscreens are often much easier to use.

2092 152 STREET SOUTH SURREY

604-536-7212 DO A COMPLETE

TIMING BELT JOB* Introduced in 2003, the original Touareg was supposed to be unique and different from the traditional SUVs. And it was… for a brief period of time. Sharing its platform with the Porsche Cayenne, Volkswagen’s first crossover SUV was widely praised by the media and consumers, but eventually fell to the wayside as the luxury SUV market exploded. VW had caught up to BMW and Mercedes-Benz, only to fall back into the pack. It couldn’t beat out the established and popular X5 for performance, and wasn’t in the same league as a Land Rover or Jeep when it comes to climbing rocks. It also suffered from a public that hadn’t fully accepted Volkswagen as a maker of luxury vehicles. Still, the Touareg soldiered on with a cache of loyal owners who recognized it for what it was: one of the most rewarding, jack-of-alltrades SUVs you could buy. The Volkswagen excelled in many areas of the performance facets. It was a fun-to-drive family mover that looked good and—perhaps most importantly—delivered good value. What’s not to like about that? Following a 2008 refresh (after which it was briefly known as the Touareg 2), Volkswagen has taken the wraps off of a new, 2011 model. And this time around, the Touareg isn’t trying to be different from the masses in any particular way—it’s trying to be better than them in every possible way. The 2011 model is a beautifully crafted car that feels almost Audi-ish in terms of the quality of design and construction. Where performance is concerned, it’s closer to its Cayenne and Audi Q7 cousins, but maintains the sensibility we expect from VW vehicles. There’s a TDI diesel engine, of course, and Volkswagen will soon bless the Touareg with its first-ever hybrid powertrain. It is, in short, an extremely pleasant surprise, taking everything we liked about the Touareg and raising the bar about three or four notches. If you still aren’t convinced that Volkswagen should be building luxury vehicles, this might be the one that will change your mind.

Features

AND RECEIVE A

Starting at $48,440, the Touareg comes in Comfortline, Highline, and Execline trim levels. Swapping the gasoline engine for a TDI diesel adds roughly $5,000 to the cost, depending on the trim. Equipment found in the base Comfortline include ABS, traction control, dual-zone air conditioning, cruise control, fog lamps, heated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, touchscreen navigation/audio system with 60Gb hard drive, Bluetooth, tire-pressure monitoring system, and front/side/side-curtain airbags. Additional features available as options or on higher trims include a power tailgate, panoramic sunroof, heated rear seats, heated steering wheel, keyless start, Xenon headlamps, 12-speaker sound system, backup sensors, rearview camera, and a sport suspension. Fuel efficiency for the gas engine is rated at 12.3L/100km in the city and 8.8L/100km on the highway, while the diesel improves those figures to 11.1L/100km and 7L/100km, respectively. Thumbs up Great profile and performance; sharp new VW grille; spacious interior. Thumbs down Generic styling cues; annoyingly bulky key fob. The bottom line VW has taken a good thing and made it even better.

Competitors Acura MDX Priced at $52,690, the MDX is powered by a 3.7L V6 with 300-hp and 270 lb-ft of torque, and comes standard with a six-speed automatic and Acura’s awesome Super-Handling All-Wheel Drive system. The MDX’s sharp-edged design might be too edgy for some, and it’s not as performance-oriented as its German rivals. However, the Japanese SUV makes up for any minor complaints with its excellent all-wheel-drive system and superbly designed interior.

Design

Performance

Powered by a 3.6L V6 with 280-hp and 265 lb-ft of torque or a 3.0L TDI V6 that produces 225-hp and 406 lb-ft of torque, the Touareg can compete with the best luxury mid-size SUVs when it comes to power. 4MOTION all-wheel drive is standard equipment, along with a new, eight-speed transmission. The hybrid powertrain will use the 3.6L V6, enabling the Touareg to run on gasoline, electricity, or both at once. However, it’s a bit disappointing that VW didn’t take a run at a diesel-electric hybrid, seeing as few automakers have its expertise. Boasting much sportier performance than the first-generation Touareg, the 2011 model is clearly gunning for BMW’s X5. It’s highly responsive, and perhaps on par with the Porsche Cayenne in terms of overall handling (though it’s not as powerful). Much of that comes from the significant mass that VW cut out, reducing curb weight by 208kg. Perhaps the only downside with respect to performance is the stiff ride, which will be too firm for some passengers. The Touareg is comfortable in motion, but you’ll notice long rides when the vehicle comes to a full stop.

BMW X5 The $59,990 X5 comes with a turbocharged 3.0L V6 with 300-hp and 300 lb-ft of torque, a 4.4L V8 with 400-hp and 450 lb-ft of torque, or a 3.0L V6 pushing 265-hp and 425 lb-ft of torque. xDrive all-wheel drive is standard and the gas engines get an eight-speed automatic, but the diesel is limited to a six-speed transmission. Though its starting price makes the Touareg look like a great value, the refreshed 2011 X5 has the looks, performance, and features necessary to justify the added cost.

Premium Synthetic Oil Change

Mercedes ML-Class The ML-Class starts at $57,400, equipped with one of four engines: a 3.5L V6 generating 268-hp and 258 lb-ft of torque, a 3.0L diesel with 210-hp and 400 lb-ft of torque, a 5.5L V8 with 382-hp and 391 lb-ft of torque, or a 6.2L V8 with 503-hp and 465 lb-ft of torque. 4MATIC all-wheel drive is standard, along with a seven-speed automatic transmission.

Released in 2005 and updated in 2009, the ML-Class is one of the oldest luxury SUVs on the road, but still holds its own against newer models. A major redesign is coming up for the 2012 model year. ■

VW’s new design language is clean and athletic, but may be a little too plain for some tastes. The new grille looks great, cutting across the face from headlamp to headlamp, and the sculpted side panels give the SUV an athletic stance. However, the rear is just a bit too generic, lacking any notable details beyond the triangular tailpipes. The most striking thing about the Touareg is definitely its overall shape and profile, which looks so much leaner and purposeful than last year’s model, despite slight gains in length and width. It’s helped along by a sloping roofline that makes the SUV seem almost hatchback-like. The interior is very upscale and well-executed, coming closer to the simple elegance of its Audi cousins without compromising the Volkswagen feel. With twin, chrome-ringed dials bracketing a colour LCD, the gauge cluster feels sporty and business-like at the same time—a sense that extends throughout the cabin. You know you’re doing well when leatherette seating surfaces feel good, and that’s exactly the case here. While upper trims get full leather, owners of the base Touareg will be more than satisfied. Similarly, the quality of the switchgear, wood trim, and plastics is excellent.

BIGGER SAVINGS

The life cycle of a vehicle is long, complex, and inevitably involves the release of harmful smogforming emissions into the atmosphere. The life of a vehicle on the road and the environmental impact it can have at the end of its life is especially pronounced when the vehicle is model year 1995 or older. On the road Vehicles of model-year 1995 or older lack the latest technology for reducing air-polluting emissions. In fact, a 1995 or older vehicle produces up to 19 times more smog forming emissions than 2004 or newer vehicles. After life If a car is not properly retired at the end of its life, it can have a negative impact on the environment. Failure to remove fluids, such as gas, oil and coolants, could result in the contamination of our air, water and soil. Additionally, when recyclers reuse components that are safe to reclaim and do not contribute to the vehicle’s emissions, they reduce the need to manufacture new parts. Therefore, it is important for owners to ensure their vehicles are properly disposed of in the end. Until March 31, 2011, drivers who own 1995 model year and older vehicles can do just that and get rewarded for it by participating in Retire Your Ride, Canada’s national vehicle recycling program. The program has its own recycling Code of Practice that ensures the following steps are followed: • Draining of Fluids: On average, between 20 and 40 litres of fluid are removed from a vehicle and disposed of responsibly. • Part Removal: The vehicle is dismantled, reusable parts (except those related to emissions) are inspected, tested and prepared for resale. • Recycling and Recovery of Material – The empty body of the vehicle is crushed and shredded. Ferrous materials (such as iron) and non-ferrous materials (such as aluminum) are then separated and reused to make new vehicles and other products. To date, the program has responsibly recycled more than 90,000 vehicles from Canada’s roads, reducing smog forming emissions by over 4,800 tonnes. More information is available online at retireyourride.ca. www.newscanada.com
