$10M lawsuit smears CSIS

Brampton man alleges agents obsessed with idea he was Islamist propagandist Abu Banan Ayad Mejid spent 39 days in jail Lawsuit claims he was โ beaten by other inmates,โ threatened by guards and inmates A Brampton man is suing the Canadian government, alleging Canadaโ s spy agency launched a smear campaign against him, painting him as a terrorist and pedophile because he refused to

be an informant. The recently filed $10-million lawsuit comes after child pornography charges against Ayad Mejid, 48, were dropped when a Superior Court judge ruled his charter

rights were violated by agents with the Canadian Security Intelligence Service. In October, Justice Jane Kelly ruled Mejid was threatened and intimidated into handing over his

laptop to CSIS to prove he wasnโ t the online jihadist they suspected. Instead, the agency says it found images of child pornography โ evidence deemed inadmissible as it was obtained under

Radiation over the edge: Prof ARTIST RENDERING

EdgeWalk could expose visitors to harmful radiation, professor says Health Canada says levels safe BRIGITTE NOËL

TORONTO@METRONEWS.CA

CN Tower officials were quick to react to allegations that EdgeWalk, their latest attraction, could be harmful to people’s health. And we’re not talking about a heart attack as thrill-seekers take a stroll 116 storeys up in the sky. On her personal blog, Dr. Magda Havas, an associate professor of environmental and resource studies at Trent University, expressed concern that the EdgeWalk attraction could expose people to harmful electromagnetic radiation emanating from the tower’s many communication antennas. But representatives from Canada Lands Corporation, the company that owns the famous tower, say they are committed to the highest safety standards. “We put safety and security in every aspect of the design and building logistics around EdgeWalk,” said Canada Lands vicepresident Gordon McIvor. He also said his organization confirmed with Health Canada that the tower’s radiation levels were well below the na-

tional limit. Havas said her issue is not with the CN Tower, but with Health Canada’s guidelines. She claims the Canadian standards monitoring electromagnetic radiation are outdated. “They are way out of line,” Havas said. “They were set to protect military personnel working on radars.” But Health Canada maintains its guidelines are safe. “Based on information to date and the weight of evidence from ongoing scientific literature reviewed by Health Canada scientists, the department is confident that Canada’s (radiofrequency) exposure limits remain current and valid,” a Health Canada representative responded via email. Havas believes this is ludicrous. “They’re not doing their job, and I find that extremely disturbing.” McIvor said he is “disappointed” Havas used the CN Tower to make her point. “We felt it was a little bit unfair that we were being singled out, when, in fact, her issue is something that is a national issue.”

Adventure lovers must wait until Aug. 1 to enjoy the CN Tower’s EdgeWalk, billed as the most extreme experience in the tower’s 35-year history.

Canada’s code not as tough as T.O.’s Jim Flaherty may face some new risks when the recycled federal budget comes down June 6. Video at metronews.ca

The Canadian Radiofrequency Energy Guidelines, known as Safety Code 6, set the electromagnetic radiation limit at 1 mW/cm2 for unlimited public exposure at a 1,800 mHz frequency. Complicated math, this calculation means the Canadian limit is 10 trillion times higher than the natural background levels of all radio frequency radiation. In contrast, countries like Belgium, China and Switzerland boast much stricter guidelines — in Russia, the limit is 100 times stricter than in Canada. According to Dr. Magda Havas, this means that

even though the CN Tower emissions are a fraction of the Canadian limit, they are well beyond the Russian maximum. In 2000, a report by

the Toronto Board of Health recommended that Health Canada’s exposure limits be made 100 times stricter. No changes were made.

However, several jurisdictions have decided Health Canada’s Safety Code 6 is insufficient. In 2007, Toronto’s Board of Health endorsed a

Prudent Avoidance Policy, which recommends exposure to radio frequencies be kept 100 times below the national limit. BRIGITTE NOËL

TTC’s new subway cars built for comfort RANDY RISLING/TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

Built in Thunder Bay by Bombardier for about $1B, trains will continue to arrive through 2013

A view inside one of the new high-tech Rocket trains. There are no stanchions running down the middle of the six-car trains.

It felt like a quieter, somewhat smoother ride. The thing you really notice about Toronto’s new subways is how bright and open they feel. They are also brimming with new maps, new accessibility and security features. The open gangways make the biggest difference. You can walk clear to the end of the Rockets because their six cars are connected like an articulated bus or streetcar. However, commuters won’t get to ride the first new trains until at least June, and possibly later this summer. That’s when the first of the 70 Rockets, still in testing, will be brought onto the Yonge-University line. The existing T1 cars will gradually move to the Bloor-Danforth line and

Development slowed by red tape: Report It takes too long to get the green light to build a new development in Toronto, says a report from a business-dominated advisory committee. The city should rejig its review and approval process to cut the time by one-third to one-half, says the report, Toronto Prosperity Initiative, Establishing the Path to Growth, to be released Friday. It specifically recommends accelerating waterfront development using the upcoming 2015 Pan Am Games as catalysts to get the planning work done in a timely way. “It’s music to my ears,” said Stephen Dupuis, president of BILD, a group representing developers.

‘Witness’ cops probed HANDOUT HANDOUT

“It seems the biggest lament is that it’s so hard to get to a yes on a timely basis,” he said. The 17-member advisory committee, chaired by AGF Management CEO Blake Goldring, suggests bureaucrats should become more adaptable rather than cling to rules and regulations. Coun. Michael Thompson, who participated on the committee, said a change to a more flexible attitude at city hall would help. “We’ve discovered that people are afraid of making mistakes and that compounds delays,” said Thompson, chair of council’s economic development committee.

An internal investigation has been launched by the Toronto Police Service into the conduct of officers identified as witnesses in a probe by the Special Investigations Unit into the violent arrest of Dorian Barton at the G20 summit. News of the investigation followed a claim by the director of the SIU that one of the witness officers said he could not name a colleague accused of beating Barton, even though they were G20 roommates. The SIU’s Ian Scott also told the Toronto Star two other witness officers who could not name the suspect officer were supervisors. “An internal investigation is underway, and we will look at all the circum-

Undated photo of injuries Dorian Barton sustained after being attacked by a police officer at Queen’s Park during the G20 summit.

Eleven G20 officers say they could not identify their colleague as he stood above injured man stances involved in the alleged Barton assault,” police spokesman Mark Pugash told the Star. “I can tell you that all circumstances will be looked into, and where there is evidence people will be charged,” he said, adding that officers could be fired from the force if any wrongdoing is found. Earlier Thursday, the SIU announced it was reopening for a third time its investigation into Barton’s arrest. The 30-year-old suffered a broken right arm, bruised back, swollen limbs and a black eye in the arrest near Queen’s Park. He says he was taking a picture when an officer blindsided him with a riot shield. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

Lake victim used last breaths to express concern for pal in water Mississauga student Ishan Srinivasan died as he lived, expressing concern for a friend. Srinivasan, a 21-year-old University of Waterloo student, drowned Sunday when the canoe he was in capsized, plunging him and two friends into the frigid waters of Pickerel Lake, about 50 kilometres north of Huntsville. “The canoe tipped over and I knew if we didn’t call someone it would have been over for all of us,” said Srinivasan’s friend, who asked not to be named. Srinivasan used his last breaths to express concern for the third canoeist, who could not swim and was taking in large gasps of water despite being the only one wearing a life jacket, the friend said.

Arnold Schwarzenegger’s lawyer is vehemently denying a report in the National Enquirer claiming the former California governor allegedly used his security detail in an inappropriate manner. “Today’s story from the National Enquirer is totally and completely false,” read the statement from Martin Singer. “Unfortunately, the media’s relentless desire for new information has some outlets running stories that are made up by paying sources that have zero credibility. “My client stated from the beginning that he takes full responsibility for his actions and deserves the public and media criticism. This does not entitle some in the media to be totally irresponsible.” A statement from Mark Hammond, a retired police officer who worked as part of Schwarzenegger’s security team, read: “I can say without a shadow of a doubt as a supervisor of his protective detail that at no time did I see Governor Schwarzenegger say or do anything that could be deemed inappropriate, and I was at his side for seven years. As a supervisor, if anything had occurred, I would have been notified, even if it was technically off the record on his private time.” Meanwhile, RadarOnline.com reported that California’s attorney general is investigating Schwarzenegger for alleged misuse of taxpayer funds. A press spokesperson for Attorney General Kamala D. Harris would neither confirm nor deny the existence of an inquiry, stating “I’ll have to get back to you if something comes up.” TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

Calls for inquiry Top U.S. Democrat Eric Bauman has called for an inquiry. “Californians are greatly concerned that the former governor deceived not just his wife and his children, and I for one certainly would like to know if any governmental or campaign resources were

used to cover up this fiasco,” Bauman told RadarOnline.com. “During Arnold’s campaign when women came forward and raised issues about his sexual advances and activities, he and his minions denied them vociferously.” “I think the Fair Political Practices Committee has an obligation to examine (him).”

HARPER, OBAMA WANT TO SPEED UP Prime minister says perimeter security plan to be unveiled by summer deadline ‘Discussions on track’ Canada and the United States will have a plan in place by the summer on how to achieve the longawaited perimeter security deal, Prime Minister Stephen Harper said Thursday. Harper met U.S. President Barack Obama to discuss the plan on the sidelines of broader G8 discussions in the seaside resort of Deauville, France. “The president and I are committed to pursuing a perimeter approach to enhance our security and accelerate the legitimate flow of people, goods and services between our two countries,” Harper said. “We are pleased that discussions are on track, and we expect to have an ambitious joint action plan ready this summer

Mideast peace G8 discussion has focused on U.S. President Barack Obama’s speech listing a return to 1967 borders as a condition for peace between Israel and the Palestinians. Obama’s remarks were called “courageous” by French President Nicolas Sarkozy. But Stephen Harper didn’t go that far. “I think if you look at the statement in its totality it was very balanced and it is certainly something that Canada can support,” Harper said.

following public consultations.” The plan is expected to lay out priorities for the border deal and what both

countries will do together and separately to make it happen. Work on the pact, which aims to control who enters and leaves the North American continent in a consistent manner, began in February. It would allow officials to ease security at the Canada-U.S. border, paving the way for a return to more free-flowing passage of vehicles and cargo. Harper and Obama also discussed ways to erase regulatory differences that slow down trade. Harper’s meeting with Obama was among discussions he held Thursday to advance Canada’s trade and foreign policy agenda. Newly minted Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird was also at the table.

China explosion protests government corruption ‘This tragedy wasn’t accidental — it was inevitable,’ one blogger wrote ‘These explosions ... touched a nerve with people all across the country’ Three bombs rocked government buildings in a city in southeast China Thursday, in a rare act of antistate violence that many say crystallizes mounting public anger over widespread government corruption in China. At least two people died and seven were wounded in the blasts in the city of Fuzhou, according to state media. The bombings sent a mushroom-like plume of smoke towering over local government offices. At least 10 vehicles were destroyed, several floors of office windows were blown out and bits and pieces of metal were sent flying. Eyewitnesses reported over the Internet that

“dozens” might have been injured. The bombs detonated in the heart of the city’s Linchuan district at 9:15, 9:29 and 9:45 a.m., hitting the state prosecutor’s office, the local government’s main building, and a local food and drug administration office. The bombs had been set by a disgruntled 52-year-old farmer who, with others, had waged a lengthy campaign to win compensation from the government for what they claimed was the illegal demolition of their homes. The bomber, identified as Qian Mingqi, was reported killed in the blasts. Qian had claimed in nu-

Bosnian Serb army Gen. Ratko Mladic, second from left, accompanied by an aide and French UN security troops, arrives at a UN-sponsored meeting at Sarajevo’s airport in 1993.

War crimes fugitive arrested in Serbia Gen. Ratko Mladic earned reputation as a cold and ruthless killer in Bosnian war Faces genocide charges Gen. Ratko Mladic, the brutal Bosnian Serb military commander suspected of leading the bloody massacre of 8,000 Muslim men and boys, was arrested in a raid Thursday in Serbia after years in hiding, the country’s president said. The arrest, which comes 16 years after Mladic was

indicted by the UN war crimes tribunal for genocide, could be a jolt for Serbia’s lagging efforts to join the European Union. Serbia has been under intense pressure from the international community to catch Europe’s most wanted war crimes suspect and the EU has insisted on

his arrest as a condition for its membership bid. UN prosecutors have said they believed the suspect in the worst massacre in Europe since the Second World War was hiding in Serbia under the protection of hardliners who consider him a hero. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Emergency vehicles respond Thursday to Mother Teresa Catholic High School in Ottawa.

Blast kills student 18-year-old initially revived after Ottawa explosion Sources say teen died after several hours in hospital Reports say an 18-year-old student who was critically injured in an explosion at a suburban Ottawa high school Thursday has died. About a dozen students and a teacher were apparently building barbecues in the auto shop when vapours from an empty 55gallon oil drum ignited and blew up, said Const. Marc Soucy, spokesman for Ottawa police. He said he heard the

drum contained peppermint oil, but that is still under investigation. The Grade 12 student wasn’t breathing and had no pulse when emergency workers arrived, but paramedics were able to resuscitate him by the time they reached hospital. The mid-morning blast rattled desks throughout Mother Teresa Catholic High School and sent six people to hospital. The five

others, including a 33-yearold male teacher, had minor injuries but were sent to hospital as a precaution because of the concussive effects of the blast. “I think there was a bit of a force,” said Joe Micucci, commander of operations for the Ottawa Paramedic Service. “Whenever there is an explosion, it may have thrown them back a bit, but I don’t have that information.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Killer blames cat bite for HIV

Man believes surgical tools not properly sterilized Disclosing HIV status his ‘first priority’ if released THE CANADIAN PRESS FILE

An Ontario man convicted of killing two women by infecting them with HIV believes he may have contracted the virus in Uganda during surgery after a cat bite. Johnson Aziga, a 54year-old Ugandan immigrant and father of three, was convicted in April 2009 of two counts of firstdegree murder, 10 counts of aggravated sexual assault and one count of attempted aggravated sexual assault. His convictions are related to 11 women with whom he had unprotected sex without telling them he had HIV. Seven of the women be-

Johnson Aziga

came infected, with two dying of AIDS-related cancers. The Crown is seeking to have Aziga designated a

dangerous offender, which would see him jailed indefinitely. Aziga testified yesterday about his life history, and said that in June 1985 he required surgery after a cat bit him while he was working at a veterinary clinic in Uganda. He said he believes the surgical tools were not properly sterilized and that is how he may have contracted the virus that causes AIDS. He also told the court that if he is ever released from prison, his first priority in sexual encounters will be to disclose his HIV status.

Diplomatic immunity: I have a theory about ex-girlfriends. When you see her, and she is all MIKE BENHAIM dressed up, flaws temporarily METRO obscured, she suddenly looks good again. But move in together and you will soon be reminded of why and just how much you hated her. It never ends well. In unrelated news, Bob Rae was chosen as interim Liberal party leader this week. Touchdown: Former Super Bowl MVP Hines Ward won the coveted Mirror Ball trophy on Dancing With the Stars this week, which is great because the only thing his friends will make fun of more than being on Dancing With the Stars ... is WINNING Dancing With the Stars! The Story of O: My mother was finally vindicated this week for her comments in 1986. After watching the first Oprah Winfrey Show, she stated, “Echh, this show will never last!” The puck stops here: This week, the city of “Scotty? Or Vancouver revealed to the rest of the nation the Lauren? Whose secret to having a successful musical career sports team: Don’t live in will I not follow Toronto. Weather, or not?: first? Hmmm ... There’s nothing funit’s a tough ny about the devastachoice.” tion caused by tornadoes in the central U.S. this week. What is funny is hearing the idiot with the camcorder say, “UH-OH, IT’S COMING TOWARD ME! Aaaaah ... THUMP!” Diamond hoop dreams: Coming off his best NBA season, former Toronto Raptor and current New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries has deprived the North American singles scene of one of its prized members when he proposed to girlfriend Kim Kardashian. This will make him brother-in-law to Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom, which may be awkward should they face each other in next year’s NBA finals. Thankfully, if that happens, the event will take place in fantasy land because he plays for the Nets! Subliminal seduction: After repeatedly listening to Rihanna’s current hit, S & M, I believe I have uncovered subtle sexual undertones. My suspicions were confirmed when she opened the Billboard Music Awards in a titillating performance with Britney Spears that can best be described as “really slutty.” I, however, much preferred the post-show interview where Britney tells us how much she has grown as a mother. American Idle observations: Great performances by Beyoncé and Gaga. This just in — Tony Bennett is still alive ... sort of. Is it me or did one-half of TLC have one too many BLTs? Marc Anthony is one slick, badass latino stud. He married the “Most Beautiful Woman in the World,” and flaunted her before our eyes. And all the while I was preoccupied with the night’s “raison d’être.” Scotty? Or Lauren? Whose musical career will I not follow first? Hmmm ... it’s a tough choice. I would like to bid American Idol farewell. Adieu to yeu and yeu and yeu. Good riddance.

Cartoon by Michael de Adder Worth mentioning LONDON. A group of researchers claims it has found the most distant explosion ever detected, a pulse of high-energy radiation sent by a disintegrating star near the very edge of the observable universe. The stellar blast was first spotted by a NASA satellite in April 2009, but researchers announced Wednesday that they have since gathered data placing it more than 13-billion light years away — meaning the event took place when the universe was still in its infancy. Andrew Levan, one of the scientists behind the discovery, said this blast from the past blew open a window into the universe’s early years, showing that massive stars were already dying within the first few hundred million years of the birth of the universe. This particular explosion wasn’t a supernova but a gamma ray burst, the name given to a short but powerful pulse of high-energy radiation. Such bursts, thought to result from the collapse of massive stars into black holes, shoot jets of energy across the universe.

WEIRD NEWS

Planning 101: Think before you build Lots of houses have a two-car garage. Dan Reeves’ had a oneairplane basement. Until, that is, the central Pennsylvania man knocked out a wall to get it out. Reeves spent the past nine years building a two-seat airplane in the basement of his Cumberland County home. The plane arrived in pieces via mail,

but eventually it became way too big to get up the steps. So Reeves dug a trench down to the foundation and took out a wall. Reeves pulled the plane out Wednesday using a truck, a chain and some neighbours. Onlookers were drawn to the spectacle by the “Airplane Removal Wednesday” sign put up on Reeves’ porch. Reeves tells the Patriot-News of Harrisburg he spent $40,000 on the plane and about $5,000 on the excavation. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Despite revealing very little about the plot, J.J. Abrams has piqued the interest of Richard and Mark in his new sci-fi movie Super 8, which comes out June 10.

RICHARD CROUSE & MARK BRESLIN SCENE@METRONEWS.CA

Summer movie season Richard Crouse and Mark Breslin discuss which summer movies they are most looking forward to seeing Everyone loves a movie that involves aliens

The biggest film of last summer was Toy Story 3. What will hit the top of the charts this year? The Reel Guys have a look into their cinematic crystal ball and pick some favourites. Richard Crouse: Mark, it’s the season of crash, boom, bang. Movies with the number 2, 3 and 4 in their titles, and superheroes look likely to rule the summer, and as much as I enjoy a good popcorn movie, the prospect of being bludgeoned by Michael Bay for the next few months isn’t the most appealing thought I’ve had today. Mark Breslin: Only our editor could force me to see a

Michael Bay movie. I am looking forward to the next X-Men installment. It’s a franchise that keeps getting better, and this prequel, which takes place in the ’60s, seems to fuse real events (the Cuban Missile Crisis) with the sci-fi. Could be a potent combo. Richard, what are you looking forward to? RC: The best summer movie trailer I’ve seen so far is for Cowboys and Aliens. I know it will be a loud ‘n’ proud summer flick, but I haven’t ever seen a sci-fi western since Westworld, and anything Daniel Craig does these days is worth laying eyes on.

fun as he did the first Iron Man movie, it’ll be a treat. Also, I love the name. So Bmovie drive-in. MB: Yes, the trailer looks like a lot of fun. Of course I’m a sucker for good scifi. Which brings me to my anticipation for Super 8, J.J. Abrams’ take on early Spielberg flicks like ET and Close Encounters; and what will surely be the best movie of the summer, Rise of the Planet of the Apes. RC: Super 8 looks good to me as well. It looks like Stand By Me with aliens, but since J.J. Abrams keeps his plots under wraps I don’t know for sure. Love that. I’m also looking for-

ward to the ape movie. I grew up on the originals, and even had the Aurora model kits when I was a kid. But on a more serious note I really want to see the documentary Project Nim, a kind of real life Planet of the Apes about a chimpanzee raised by a New York City family in the 1970s. Anything other than the blockbusters that you’re looking forward to? MB: Larry Crowne, the Tom Hanks/Julia Roberts vehicle about romance in the downward socially mobile set, looks intriguing, and Bad Teacher, the deliciously amoral Cameron Diaz comedy, appeals to me, but only if she’s really, really bad!

Who will get the ‘Cannes bump’? The dust has settled on Cannes, but what does it all mean Will Palme D’or win boost Tree of Life? Has Kristen Dunst resurrected her career? ADAM NAYMAN

SCENE@METRONEWS.CA

At a rumoured cost of more than $100 million US, Terrence Malick’s drama The Tree of Life may be the most expensive film to ever win the Palme D’or at Cannes, making the question of whether the award will enhance its box-office potential all the more urgent. The film, which has been compared in its cosmic scale and vast leaps through time to 2001: A Space Odyssey, was supposed to premiere at the prestigious French film festival in 2010, but a complicated series of events involving editing delays and nervy distributors held up plans for the premiere. For art-house and for-

eign-language films, a Cannes premiere is like the Fourth of July weekend slot for a Will Smith franchise flick: it’s a time when tastemaking critics and ambitious distributors try to put art before commerce. It’s also seen as the first stop on the annual film-festival circuit — a launching pad for films that will end up

showing around the world. Whatever its actual commercial potential, Tree of Life will open in June in an attempt to capitalize on its much-publicized Palme, but other Cannes buzz items will only show up in Canada during September’s Toronto International Film Festival. It’s likely that one of these will be perennial

provocateur Lars Von Trier’s new apocalyptic melodrama Melancholia, which saw its director banned from a festival he’s dominated for the past decade. Not because of anything onscreen, but because of his remarks at a press conference claiming (in a badly conceived joke) that he felt some sympathy for Adolf Hitler. Von Trier has been contrite, but he must know that on some level, any publicity is good publicity, and the combination of controversy and a starry cast — including Kirsten Dunst, who may have resurrected her professional reputation by taking home a Best Actress prize from the official jury — may give Melancholia the biggest "Cannes bump" of all.

Your soundtrack to summer

As the season heats up, you’re going to need some cool tunes Metro has your fix We’ve got the latest from indie acts (Black Lips), rappers (Pitbull), old-timers (Neil Young) and even someone dead (Queen!) LINDA LABAN Black Lips Arabia Mountain (Vice) June 7 Who: Sharp garage rockers from Georgia, home of the rebel yell. What: Courtesy of producer Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse, Adele), the sixth studio album from

these Atlanta braves is more crafted than crafty, adding R&B horns and a pop curve. Why buy: While it’s the band’s most accessible record, Arabia Mountain retains the Lips’ essential snot and spit.

Neil Young International Harvester: A Treasure (Reprise Records) June 14 Who: The man who rivals Dylan for world’s biggest road hog title. What: These live cuts date from a time when Young pissed off corporations (in-

cluding his then label) and went rogue, touring in 1984 and 1985 with this stellar country combo. Why buy: Completist alert: Whether on CD, limited edition vinyl or the deluxe CD/Blu-ray package, this includes five previously unreleased songs.

Pitbull Planet Pit (J-Records ) June 21 Who: Miami rapper Armando Christian Pérez nails vice-like rhymes into hit singles. You’ve heard him on tracks from T-Pain and the latest from Jennifer Lopez.

What: Pitbull’s team on

Queen News of the World, Jazz, The Game, Flash Gordon, Hot Space (Hollywood Records) June 28 Who: The band that put the wham bam in glam celebrates its 40th anniversary.

What: Following the win-

his sixth album reads like a block party A-list: Ne-Yo, Afrojack and Nayer join in on first single, Give Me Everything. T-Pain and Sean Paul add their two cents worth later. Everyone hugs.

“He’s definitely smarter than Hank. Dan’s intentions and his logic are always good. But it’s always best when he doesn’t try so hard to do the right thing.” Fans of Dan For Mayor might be wondering where the comedy will go this season. Afterall, the show is called Dan For Mayor. What’s he going to do now that the election is over and he’s mayor? “It’s a little different this year. There’s not that continuing kind of soap opera plotline. The episodes are self-contained. We also lost a few cast members to other jobs. But there’s some great new ones.” The second season of Dan For Mayor premieres June 5th at 7:30 (ET) on CTV.

Don’t cut Grammy categories: Coalition BEST APPS FOR MUSIC DISCOVERY A coalition of musicians is demanding the Recording Academy restore more than 30 categories cut from the Grammy Awards, alleging the reductions unfairly target ethnic music and were done without the input of its thousands of members.

A protest was planned Thursday in Beverly Hills, Calif., at an academy board meeting. It is part of a campaign by those upset by last month’s decision to reduce the Grammy fields, which this year totalled 109, to 78. Grammy President and

CEO Neil Portnow said changes would be in effect for the 2012 Grammys. But protesters hope the process could be reversed in time for next year’s Grammy ceremony if at least one board member asks the academy to reconsider.

“Hopefully during that time, someone will rise and be brave enough and do this,” Bobby Sanabria, a four-time Grammy nominee in the Latin jazz category and a leader of the movement against the changes.

There’s just too much music and not enough time. We spend so much time researching and searching for the next big song/album/artist that we don’t spend enough time actually savouring music anymore. This is why so many people rely on recommendations from friends, curators and algorithms. Some have found salvation in various apps for their smartphones and tablets. Here are a few of my favourites.

Discovr (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, Android; $0.99): Fire up the app and enter the name of an artist you like in the search field. Suddenly, the screen blossoms into what looks like a molecule with that first artist at the nucleus. Pictures of people who make similar music radiate outward. Touch any of those connected artists and a new molecule forms with related artists. Frighteningly addictive.

Hitlantis (iPhone, iPad, Android; free): Similar to Discovr, this app displays artists who have registered with the service. Each band appears as a colour-coded planet orbiting the Hitlantis sun. The closer an act is to the sun, the more popular it is with users of the app. If you’re interested in indie, unsigned and

undiscovered bands, this is a gold mine.

Moodagent (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, Android; $4.99): After analyzing all the music on your device, Moodagent offers a series of emotion-related slider controls that allow you to create mood-based playlists, tailoring the music for your current headspace and location. And should you want to share how you’re feeling, Moodagent connects with Facebook and Twitter.

Planetary (iPad, Android; free): When it was released earlier this month, this app spread through the music-loving geek community like a comet. Like Moodagent, Planetary analyzes the music on your device and organizes everything into gorgeous 3-D star charts and planetary systems. Touch on a star or a planet and watch what happens.

Shazam (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, Android; free for the basic version): Ever been somewhere and heard a song that you liked but couldn’t identify? With Shazam, you just hold up your device so it can “hear” what’s playing. After a few seconds, the app comes back with the name of the song, the artist and a chance to instantly purchase the song right on your device.

SoundHound (iPod touch, iPhone, iPad, Android; free for the basic version): Similar to Shazam but boasts the ability to recognize a song in as little as four seconds.

X-factors plague Cole as show removes her Former Pussycat Dolls singer, Scherzinger, rumoured to be a replacement ALL PHOTOS GETTY IMAGES

British star Cheryl Cole is reportedly no longer a part of the U.S. edition of X Factor, Simon Cowell’s new singing competition, which is set to premiere in September. While Cole has been a hit on the original U.K. version of the show, there were concerns her accent would be too difficult for American audiences to understand, according to TMZ. There are reportedly other issues as well, including a “lack of chemistry” with fellow judge Paula Abdul. The change of heart regarding Cole apparently came after taping of the show’s audition rounds began in Los Angeles. While there’s been no official word on who will replace Cole at the judges table — where Cowell, Abdul and producer L.A. Reid sit — sources claim former Pussycat Dolls singer Nicole Scherzinger, the show’s co-host, would step into the role. While reps for Fox have yet to comment on the story, a source close to Cole tells Us Weekly it’s done. METRO

food Coolers for the mature crowd PETER ROCKWELL LIQUIDASSETS@EASTLINK.CA TWITTER: @THEREALWINEGUY

If you’re over 30, you probably await the arrival of new coolers with the same enthusiasm you reserve for the release of a Britney Spears album. Influenced by popular flavours of the moment, their sweet personalities are aimed at a younger crowd. That said, some producers woo a mature crowd with ready-todrink combos that are as subtle as they are sophisticated. Of this year’s cooler crop, Bassano Hard Sodas may be summer’s cross-generational drink. Modelled after the Italian sodas made popular in speakeasies during the Roaring ‘20s, Bassano blends vodka with sparkling water and natural fruit flavours to create a dry, lightly effervescent, wine-esque beverage. In fact, both the raspberry jelly candy flavour of the Bassano Hard Soda Raspberry Pomelo (4 x 330 ml, $8.98 - $11.69) and the 7-up sensibility of the Bassano Hard Soda Lemon Sanguinelli (4 x 330 ml, $8.98 - $11.69) beg to be served over ice from a large wine glass.

Grilling tips

Making your own grilling rubs and barbecue sauces offers unique flavour options.

Grilling season is here and spice rubs and barbecue sauces are easy ways to pump up the flavour. Grocers offer a huge selection of rubs and sauces intended for steak, chicken, pork, seafood, even veggies. But consider saving money and making your own. They are easy to assemble and you can better cater to your tastes.

Seven Pepper Grilling Rub While this rub is wonderful on steak, also try it tossed with chunks of zucchini and summer squash, skewered shrimp and chicken breasts.

Preparation:

1

In a blender or spice grinder, or with a mortar and pestle, grind all ingredients together.

Store in sealed jar.

Ingredients: • 50 ml (1/4 cup) kosher salt • 45 ml (3 tbsp) brown sugar • 10 ml (2 tsp) ancho pepper powder • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) red pepper flakes • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) cayenne pepper • 5 ml (1 tsp) ground black pepper • 5 ml (1 tsp) ground white pepper • 5 ml (1 tsp) pink peppercorns • 5 ml (1 tsp) sweet paprika • 5 ml (1 tsp) smoked paprika

Maple Apple Bourbon Barbecue Sauce Tangy or mellow, spicy or mild, barbecue sauce is the

icing on the steak — or ribs, or whatever else it is you happen to throw on the grill. Next time you’re craving barbecue sauce, try this thick maple-based sauce. It’s a good choice for basting on grilled meats toward the end of cooking.

Preparation:

2

In a medium saucepan over medium-high, heat oil. Add onion, garlic and apples. Cook until onion is a golden brown and apples are quite soft, about 10 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients, then return to a simmer. Reduce temperature to medium, cover and continue to cook, stirring often, for 30 minutes. Adjust salt and pepper. Transfer to a blender, in batches if

necessary, then puree until smooth. Cool, then refrigerate in sealed glass jars for 2 weeks. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ingredients: • 15 ml (1 tbsp) vegetable oil • 1 medium yellow onion, diced • 1 clove garlic, minced • 2 apples, peeled, cored and diced • 15 ml (1 tbsp) grated fresh ginger • 125 ml (1/2 cup) maple syrup • 125 ml (1/2 cup) cider vinegar • 125 ml (1/2 cup) bourbon • 250 ml (1 cup) chili sauce • 5 ml (1 tsp) salt • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) ground black pepper • 2 ml (1/2 tsp) cinnamon • 1 ml (1/4 tsp) cayenne

Consider these tips when grilling. • Use clean utensils and plates when removing cooked meats. • Keep hot food hot until you are ready to serve. • Ensure meat is well sealed and that ice water doesn’t come in contact with stored meat. This can lead to crosscontaminations. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Gladiator mentality in Miami Jail British film maker Louis Theroux made a documentary inside Miami’s mega-jail where violent inmates are stacked 24 menper-cell.

Some cells force new inmates to fight for a bunk. Intimidating, if you’re just in for driving without a license.

LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh joined to win a championship. Well, now they have their shot. James scored 28 points, Wade added 21, and they led a furious rally in the final minutes as the Miami Heat eliminated Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls 83-80 Thursday night in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals. James and Wade were simply spectacular down the stretch, each scoring eight points during a gameending 18-3 run as Miami wiped out a 12-point deficit to win the series. Now the Heat are headed back to the NBA finals for the first time since 2006, and in a fitting twist, they will be facing the Mavericks. Back then, with Wade leading the way, Miami beat Dallas to capture the championship. This time, it will be James and Dirk Nowitzki going for their first rings. The Heat will host Game 1 Tuesday night. Bosh added 20 points and 10 rebounds as the Heat pulled out a dramatic win. Rose led Chicago with 25 points but hit just 9-of29 shots.

Bay from scoring, as often as not, in the first 90 seconds of the game. “We’ve got a Game 7, it’s at home, and we’re one game away from the Stanley Cup finals. Why shouldn’t we be excited?” coach Claude Julien said Thursday. “Our guys are not discouraged or disappointed. The past is the past. We’ve got an opportunity to win

a hockey game and get into the Stanley Cup finals.” The Bruins spent most of this season trying to forget blowing a 3-0 lead to the Flyers and their demons seem to have returned. Leading the series 2-1 in Game 4, the Bruins opened up a 3-0 lead be-

fore allowing five straight goals in a loss. The Bruins also led 3-2 in the series, with a 2-1 lead after one period of Game 6, before the Lightning came back to win 5-4. The Bruins can call upon their experience in Game 7 against Montreal in the first round, but Tampa is more familiar with elimination games. The Lightning fell behind the Pittsburgh Penguins 3-1 in the first round before winning three straight to advance. Wednesday’s victory over Boston made them 4-0 this season in elimination games and goalie Dwayne Roloson is 7-0 in his career when facing elimination. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Sporting values under siege

Jays. Socked

FIELD OF PLAY SCOTT RUSSELL

TORONTO@METRONEWS.CA

Toronto’s Yunel Escobar forces out Chicago runner Juan Pierre during Thursday night’s game. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Errors cost Jays in ninth A throwing error by usually sure-handed third baseman John McDonald in the ninth inning led to two unearned runs Thursday as the Chicago White Sox defeated the Toronto Blue Jays 3-1. McDonald’s error came on a grounder by former Jay Alex Rios to put a runner at second with none out.

This week’s symposium by the University of Toronto’s faculty of physical education and health called Game Misconduct: Violence, Abuse and Young Athletes raises a lot of questions about sport and where it’s heading these days. Against a backdrop where professional role models of fun and games are proving themselves to be dopers and cheaters on myriad levels and where the best and brightest stars are frequently injured, the foundation values of sport are under siege. Yes, we are watching more sport on TV and

consuming it across multi-platforms, but are we engaging in sport on an active level, doing it for the right reasons and in the proper way? “Physical inactivity causes 50,000 deaths in Canada per year,” says Dr. Doug Richards, the team physician for the U of T Varsity Blues and director of the university’s sport medicine clinic. “Sport and physical activity should be healthy. There are risks yes, but sport needs to make games safer. If I have one more parent come to me and tell me their concussed son or daughter is ready to play too soon, I’m going to lose it.” Who is sport for and

why should it matter? Isn’t it about honest competition between rivals at the height of their powers and enjoying what famed hockey goaltender Ken Dryden once called the magic of play? Isn’t sport supposed to be at least partly about fun and personal growth? Given the epidemic corruption and violence in the current sporting environment, there is cause for concern. “Often these days the magnitude of victory is determined by the extent to which your opponent is incapacitated,” says Richards. Dr. Gretchen Kerr focuses her research on the psychological health of young people and child

maltreatment in sport. She also serves as the harassment officer for Gymnastics Canada. “Why did we banish corporal punishment in schools decades ago but allow it to continue in sport?” says Kerr. “There is no national and universal regulatory body for coaching. Imagine any other profession that deals with children not having such a body.” Worrisome is the extent to which young and talented athletes in this country are being exploited. The focus is on high performance, and at an incredibly early age too many are being treated as property to be owned and traded. There is now a high risk of injury in children’s sport and the dropout rate of gifted athletes is climbing. Sport for the sake of sport seems to be struggling to survive.
