A 15-year-old Ontario boy has been charged with first-degree murder in connection with the death of a York Regional police officer. Police allege the boy was driving the minivan that dragged Const. Garrett Styles to his death after he pulled the vehicle over early Tuesday morning on a rural highway north of Toronto. The 15-year-old, who cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act, has serious injuries and was charged Tuesday night at a Toronto hospital. He is scheduled to appear July 7 in a Newmarket court. Police say three other youths in the van were not seriously injured and are co-operating with the investigation. Investigators are seeking witnesses to help them piece together what went wrong during the traffic stop just before dawn. Officers canvassed motorists Wednesday on the rural road where Styles’ life was cut

tragically short. They are hoping to find anyone who saw the officer stop the van or have interaction with the people in the vehicle. Styles, a 32-year-old father of two small children, was standing at the driver’s door when police say the vehicle suddenly accelerated, dragging the officer some 300 metres and trapping him underneath it. He died in hospital about an hour later. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Minister urged to stop family’s deportation ANDREW FRANCIS WALLACE/TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Immigration Minister Jason Kenney must stop Saturday’s deportation of a Mississauga family with two young children to Colombia where they fear death at the hands of guerrillas, opposition critics say. “To deny refugee status or to find (during an assessment of their case) that these people don’t face serious danger seems perverse
to me,” said NDP MP Don Davies. Mississauga residents Claudia Londono, her husband Juan Martinez and two sons Sebastian Martinez, 13, and Camilo Martinez, 4, have been ordered to board a plane for Bogota. Londono, 40, worked as a government psychologist treating imprisoned members of the Revolutionary
Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). The guerrilla group is known for the abduction and torture of prominent Colombian citizens. Londono, her husband and then infant son told Canadian authorities they were the subject of death threats. They entered the U.S. on a tourist visa in 1999 and fled to Canada in 2008.

Will couples say ‘I don’t’ to T.O.? ANDREW FRANCIS WALLACE/TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Recent recognition of same-sex marriage in N.Y. sparks fears local wedding businesses could take a hit New York’s decision to legalize same-sex marriage has prompted concerns that Toronto may lose the foothold it gained when Ontario became the first jurisdiction in North America to perform such weddings. “It’s too soon to tell,” said Katherine Wallace, an event planner with I Do in Toronto. “People love Toronto. They still want to come here.” Wallace has been running from wedding to wedding this week as visitors in town for Pride weekend take the opportunity to get hitched. “We will probably feel it, but there are still lots of states where Toronto is closer than New York,” she said. Coun. Kristyn WongTam, who is a lesbian and represents the ChurchWellesley area, said, “I imagine some Americans will go to New York, but

that’s OK. We just have to focus on being a destination.” Paul Winsor, the florist manager at Ladybug Florist on Church Street, doesn’t think it will have much of an impact on business. The out-of-towners usually have small ceremonies since they can’t bring the whole family. “They order a couple of boutonnieres or bouquets,” unlike locals who have more elaborate weddings, Winsor said. Ontario legalized samesex marriage in June 2003.

Nail salons under the microscope Licence would cost operators $300 plus annual renewal fee MARIANA IONOVA
TORONTO@METRONEWS.CA
A manicurist meticulously removes the cuticles from your fingernails, while her colleague applies glistening polish on your flawless, sandal-ready toes. The thought that the footbath might not have been disinfected doesn’t even cross your mind. But less-than-perfect sanitary conditions in some nail salons could result in growth of dangerous bacteria and transmission of viruses, according to Dr. Allison McGeer, infectious disease consultant at Mount Sinai Hospital. The city currently has no official licensing and regulation procedures for nail salons. Earlier this month, Toronto Public Health put forth recommendations for a bylaw requiring all tattoo parlours, piercing salons and beauty spas to apply for a licence, undergo initial inspection and display their inspection results in their front entrance. If approved, it

3,000 Toronto Public Health has eight inspectors in charge of inspecting the city’s 3,000 tattoo and piercing parlours, nail salons, spas, hair salons and barber shops. will be implemented next year. “(Infections) are usually not-life-threatening but they can be very persistent and quite annoying” said McGeer, adding that these can range from mild skin irritations to hepatitis C. Toronto Public Health inspects nail salons once a year but, because there is no registration system, officials have no way of knowing when a new business starts up. “Part of the issue is that we need to find places early on in their operation so that we can educate operators when they start out instead of finding them haphazardly through the inspection program,” said Dr. Herveen Sachdeva, of Toronto Public Health.
Nafilia Sachedina sits through a pedicure Wednesday at Toronto Nails Studio and Spa at 415 Yonge St.
One of these things is not like the other In Toronto, business owners need a licence to run a car wash but not to pierce ears. The city’s licensing
system includes requirements for sign painters, second-hand shops, and pawnshop owners to be licensed. Hair salons and barbershops are licensed but there are no similar requirements for tanning sa-
lons, tattoo shops or piercing parlours. Although any business involving hygiene is inspected by Toronto Public Health, lack of licensing means the city cannot revoke an establishment’s right to operate if they do not
meet health standards. Instead, inspectors work with the owners to fix the sanitary problems and, in extreme cases, close the business until it is properly sanitized, according to Dr. Herveen Sachdeva.
Court rules that family approval required to pull the plug Ontario’s top court has denied doctors at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre their wish to pull the plug on a 59-year-old patient they deem beyond medical help, a ruling with farreaching implications for the province’s critically ill.
The case of Hassan Rasouli, a retired mechanical engineer languishing in what doctors call a “vegetative state,” marks one of the most important Canadian legal decisions to date in the increasingly contentious debate over who
should decide when a patient lives or dies: Doctors or families. The highly-charged dispute spilled into the Ontario Court of Appeal after Rasouli’s doctors — Brian Cuthbertson and Gordon Rubenfeld — sought to re-
move him from ventilation and a feeding tube against his family’s wishes. Surrendering the possibility at life would violate Rasouli’s values and Shia Muslim beliefs, argued his wife and two children. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Infection Hassan Rasouli entered hospital to have a tumour removed in April. A rare infection left him in what doctors call a non-respon-
sive state. In what they called hopeless odds, doctors decided it was in Rasouli’s best interests to be removed from life support and moved to palliative care.

Mother still searching for missing daughter Seven months since disappearance
Woman requires medication HANDOUT
PHOEBE HO
TORONTO@METRONEWS.CA
Call it a mother’s hunch, but the mom of a missing 28-year-old woman who disappeared in Cambridge believes her daughter came to find her in Toronto. “I thought she would’ve come here to find me,” said Toronto resident Linda Deibel. “In fact, I know that’s what she would’ve done.” It’s been seven months since Tasha Marie Smith disappeared from her residence in Cambridge. She suffers from bipolar disorder, schizophrenia and multiple personality disorder and requires medication. Smith’s stepmother, Lindy Smith, says they have received leads both in Toronto and the Waterloo region since the beginning of the investigation. “We had a lot of people telling us they’d seen her in the College Park area,” Lindy said. “I would sit there for up to 12 hours, watching kids walk through, just hoping against hope that she would come in with these kids.” But those sightings have led to a dead end.

fairs co-ordinator, says they are trying to cover areas she may have travelled to in the past, including London, Waterloo region and Toronto. “The search is fairly broad as to where she may be. It’s beyond just our immediate area here,” he said.
Smith’s family has taken the matter into their own hands. Diebel has been actively combing the streets of Toronto, handing out flyers and chasing down sightings of her daughter while Lindy covered food banks and soup kitchens in the
Waterloo region. Heinzel says it has been a while since they have received any positive leads. Anyone with information is asked to contact police at 519-653-7700 ext. 2210 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.

Immigrants spurn allegiance to Queen AARON VINCENT ELKAIM/THE CANADIAN PRESS
Potential citizens rejecting royal oath number in thousands: Lawyer
Charles Roach has been fighting in the courts since the 1990s to remove the royal reference from the oath.
No pledge ‘terrible travesty’: Monarchist A spokesman for the Monarchist League of Canada says removing the oath’s pledge to the Crown would be a “terrible travesty.” Matthew Rowe, who represents the organization’s Ottawa-area
branch, argues the oath of allegiance to the Queen is an integral part of the Canadian identity. Rowe said he welcomes debate about the future of the oath and the monarchy’s presence in Canada. The freedom to express opinions is one of the many benefits the Crown has instilled in Canada, he added. That tradition deserves respect, he argued. THE CANADIAN PRESS
Amid all the swooning expected during Prince William and Kate’s presence at a Canada Day citizenship ceremony, there will be some immigrants strumming a chord of discontent. A small group of people will play guitars and wave placards outside the Ottawa-area ceremony because they resent having to swear the mandatory oath of allegiance to the Queen. They will stage a mock citizenship ceremony where applicants take an oath to Canada, rather than the monarchy, and they will sing tunes touting Canadian republicanism. Among Friday’s demonstrators will be a Caribbean man who has longed to become a Canadian citizen for 56 years, but won’t for as long as he has to swear allegiance to the Royal Family. Charles Roach refuses to deliver a pledge to a throne he says carved a legacy of oppression, imperialism and racism. The 77-year-old native of Trinidad and Tobago is not alone, as other potential Canadians are deciding to remain non-Canadian. “The institution itself is offensive to me,” said Roach, a lawyer and civilrights activist from Toronto who has been fighting in
“The citizenship candidates I met yesterday were thrilled that they’ll take their oaths in presence of ... the Duke & Duchess of Cambridge. Friday will be the first time ever that members of our Royal Family participate in a citizenship ceremony.” JASON KENNEY VIA TWITTER
the courts since the 1990s to remove the royal reference from the oath. “I don’t believe that anyone should have a political status just because of your birth and I feel strongly about that. “For that reason, I wouldn’t take an oath to any such institution, which is based on race and religion.” Taking a stand against swearing allegiance is a sacrifice, as potential Canadians give up numerous rights of citizenship — including the right to vote.

Your guide to Toronto Pride BRING ON THE BABY! MY MODERN FAMILY
DEB PEARCE
SPECIAL TO METRO TORONTO
Before we even met, each of us knew that we wanted to be mothers. But with whom? How? Was it even possible? Of course, queer parents who came before us paved the way for those questions to be answered. After the dating phase of our relationship, we knew we had the same vision for our future, and co-parenting was one of our common goals. We had a donor in mind, but we had questions about legal rights, anonymity, adoption and who would carry our child? Timing also became an issue as our biological clocks were ticking. Illness and death affecting our lives became the deciding factor — we decided there was no better time than the present. Before we began trying to conceive a child we wanted to make sure we knew what we were up against. We Googled “lesbians having children in Canada”, (thanks Rain-
bow Health Ontario), we spoke to lesbian friends who have children, called a Fertility Clinic and spoke to a lawyer friend. We were ready! We spoke to our families about our desire to start a family, and although they had questions (like how?), they were extremely supportive. Ten months later (March 22, 2011), we did a home pregnancy test and saw the pink line. We were pregnant! We called our immediate families that night and they were just as elated as we were. Our biggest concern to date? What would I wear during the pregnancy? My consistent response to the whole pregnancy fashion issue? "I have to wear THAT? That has a plunging neckline!" We are very lucky as Canadians, as queer Canadians, to have resources, legal rights and gay rights. Families come in all shapes and sizes. We are becoming the picture of what a Modern Family looks like and we cannot wait to offer our child all the unconditional love and understanding that we have to offer.

Canadian flees attack at top Afghan hotel SHAH MARAI/GETTY IMAGES
A protester prepares to attack riot police in Athens Wednesday as an umbrella flies through the air.
Austerity vote fans the flames Riots rock Athens again Greece approved more austerity measures Wednesday in a vote that calmed world markets but triggered a second day of riots that left dozens injured and Athens streets enveloped with tear gas. The passage of the bill was a decisive step for the country to get the next batch of bailout loans from international creditors.
Tear gas envelops streets
It was met with a huge sigh of relief in markets and by Greece’s partners in the eurozone. A Greek default could potentially trigger a banking crisis, particularly in Europe. While deputies voted, stun grenades echoed across the square outside the parliament building in Athens. Acrid clouds of
tear gas hung in the streets. Officials said 31 police and 15 protesters were injured and taken to hospitals, while 30 people were detained and 11 arrested. Volunteer doctors said they had treated about 40 people, most with facial injuries and breathing problems. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Afghan President Hamid Karzai vowed Wednesday that his army and police will be ready to take over from foreign forces as planned despite a brazen assault on one of Kabul’s premier hotels that left 19 people dead — including all eight attackers. The five-hour standoff at the Inter-Continental — one of the most complex attacks orchestrated in the Afghan capital — ended when NATO helicopters fired rockets at Taliban gunmen on the roof. An unidentified Canadian businessman escaped unharmed. Militants, armed with explosive vests, anti-aircraft weapons and grenade launchers, began the attack around 10 p.m. Tuesday, on the eve of a conference in the capital about transition plans.

Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq is giving the goahead for clinical trials of liberation therapy, a controversial treatment for multiple sclerosis patients.

Seven gay couples filed a lawsuit Wednesday to demand New Jersey recognize gay marriage. New York has just legalized same-sex marriage.

Ashraf Ghani, chairman of the transition commission, opened the conference Wednesday with blunt words for militants. “The transition process will be done and these coward enemies will not stop our plans,” Ghani said. Meanwhile, the U.S.-led coalition said a NATO service member was killed by insurgents Wednesday in southern Afghanistan.

The hotel, which is frequented by foreigners and dignitaries, has long been considered one of the most secure sites in the capital. Guests and visitors must pass through a roadblock and guards posted at the bottom of a hill that winds up to the building. Then there’s another checkpoint along the road before you reach the hotel, where more security guards are set up with metal detectors. The Inter-Continental — known widely as the “Inter-Con” — opened in the late 1960s.

Stabbing an act of God: Suspect Man admits to crime in first testimony to jurors Mental health will not be pursued as a defence A man wearing a shock sleeve and other restraints in court Wednesday admitted the horrific rape and stabbing of a lesbian couple in Seattle two summers ago, saying God told him to do it. “I was there and I was told by my God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, to attack my enemies, and I did so,” Isaiah Kalebu said. The trial started three weeks ago, but the testimony was the first time jurors had seen Kalebu, who was previously barred from court for being disruptive. He watched the trial via closed circuit television before indicating he wanted to exercise his constitution-

al right to testify. Kalebu, 25, was wheeled into court wearing an electroshock sleeve and oversized white mitts. Guards stood by ready to activate the Taser-like sleeve in case Kalebu acted out, but he remained docile. The courtroom had been rearranged to prevent jurors from seeing his restraints. He testified, answering just two questions: Whether he knew about the events; and whether he had been diagnosed with mental illnesses. He answered the latter affirmatively. If convicted, he could face life in prison with no opportunity for release. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Legal stance Isaiah Kalebu’s lawyers argued that he didn’t commit the crime, a contention prosecutors say is disproved by DNA evidence and witnesses. Prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty due to Kalebu’s history of mental illness. Experts have found that although he may suffer from bipolar disorder, he has been faking or exaggerating the symptoms. In January, he was found competent to stand trial.

Software developed by an Israeli team is giving intriguing new hints about what researchers believe to be the multiple hands that wrote the Bible. The new software analyzes style and word choices to distinguish parts of a single text written by different authors. The program, part of a sub-field of artificial intelligence studies known as authorship attribution, has a range of potential applications — from helping law enforcement to developing new computer programs for writers. But the Bible provided a tempting test case for the algorithm’s creators.

A CHOICE OF SINK, SWIM OR FLUTTER As I think about my swimming technique this summer, one skill keeps coming to mind: I should really JOHN MAZEROLLE learn to float. METRO I have mastered the fundamentals known as the three S’s: Standing, squatting and swearing about the water’s temperature. And, sometimes, emboldened by back-to-back episodes of Jackass, I let the water come up to my neck. But despite my derring-do, the fact remains that I’m about as buoyant as a cockpit voice recorder. To me, the butterfly is an animal, the freestyle is rap music and the breaststroke is something you do if you really love your KFC. The only pool that I have been in recently involved guessing when Will and Kate will get divorced. My inability to swim is especially embarrassing because I grew up in New Brunswick. “Weren’t you born on the water?” people say, frowning at me as if I were “But despite my a Newfoundlander who just said he doesn’t care for derring-do, the fact remains that whisky.

(If the Taliban ever harnesses the power of chlorine, every North American will be wandering around with their face squeezed tight and their arms outstretched asking for a towel.) We did take swimming lessons on school trips, but they generally involved clinging to a flutter board as though we had just departed the Titanic. When the chlorine dissolved the board, the lesson was over. I could get sulky about this and blame my childhood, but instead I have decided to embrace it: I want to return to my roots and get a flutter board because that’s the closest I have been to swimming. It might seem childish but, heck, they give out beer in sippy cups at hockey games, and those motorcycles with extra wheels seem popular now. Give my board an iPhone colour scheme and an impressive name and I will be fine with it. My Jet-Black Thoroughbred Freedom Board will be the talk of the pool. And if anyone mocks me, I’m blaming the tears on chlorine.

Cartoon by Michael de Adder Worth mentioning LOS ANGELES. A team of European astronomers, glimpsing back in time to when the universe was just a youngster, says it has detected the most distant and earliest quasar yet. Light from this brilliant, starlike object took nearly 13 billion years to reach Earth, meaning the quasar existed when the universe was only 770 million years old — a child by cosmic standards. The discovery ranks as the brightest object ever found. To scientists’ surprise, the black hole powering this quasar was two billion times more massive than the sun. How it grew so bulky so early in the universe’s history is a mystery. Black holes are known to feed on stars, gas and other matter, but their growth was always thought to be slow. The discovery was reported in Thursday’s issue of the journal Nature. Since quasars are so luminous, they guide astronomers studying the conditions of the cosmos following the Big Bang, the explosion believed to have created the universe 13.7 billion years ago.

Debuting next season — CSI: Dog poop A Florida condominium association hopes dog DNA samples will help it determine which pet owners aren’t picking up after their pooches. The Village of Abacoa Condominium Association says cleaning up after dog owners who don’t clean up after their dogs costs
$10,000 to $12,000 US per year. Starting Aug. 1, residents in the Jupiter, Fla., community must each pay a $200 fee to keep the dogs’ genetic information on file at the DNA Pet World Registry. Dog droppings found in common areas will be collected and mailed to the Tennessee-based company for comparison. The association’s property manager says any owner whose dog matches the poop sample will be fined up to $1,000, or a lien could be placed on their homes. A dog that is a persistent problem could be confiscated. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Larry Crowne (Tom Hanks, who also directs), the man not the movie, is the kind of guy proud to wear his My Name Is tag. That is, until the day U Mart downsizes him. Divorced and stuck with a house that isn’t worth what he owes on it, he turns his life around by going back to school and getting an education in life and love from teacher Mercedes Tainot (Julia Roberts).

Reel Guys
RICHARD CROUSE & MARK BRESLIN
Hanks’ comedic return Richard Crouse and Phil Brown agree Larry Crowne feels a bit out of date But they enjoy Hank’s gentle character comedy and film’s offbeat casting
SCENE@METRONEWS.CA
Movie writer Phil Brown is sitting in for Mark Breslin this week. Richard Crouse: Phil, Larry Crowne has an old-fashioned feel to it, like a ’90s sitcom updated with references from the 2000s. There’s something reassuring about seeing old pros Hanks and Roberts effortlessly glide through this like hot knives through butter, but occasionally the material feels a bit out of date. Phil Brown: The movie seemed too old-fashioned to me and just felt bland. Star power has appeal, but I just can’t buy two of the most recognizable movie stars as down-on-their-luck
nobodies. Tom Hanks may have an everyman quality, but he looks as out of place working in a department store as Larry the Cable Guy at Harvard. RC: Maybe so, but Hanks has been playing the Da Vinci Code’s oh-so-serious iconology professor Robert Langdon for so long now it’s easy to forget that he was once known as an accomplished comedic actor. Here he turns the dial back to movies like Joe and the Volcano, playing a likeable character you want to root for. I enjoyed that, I just found the obvious boomer baiting a bit obvious. PB: Yeah, it was nice to see him try to be funny again
and hopefully it’s not the last time. Few do gentle character comedy better. The boomer baiting was frustrating as was the attempt to make overcoming economic crisis seem so easy. If only I’d known before now that the answer to any financial problems I have could be solved by taking a community college level intro to economics course with George Takei. RC: I actually really liked the movie’s offbeat casting. Sure Hanks and Roberts are the above-thetitle stars, but they’ll only appeal to people who remember when gas cost 54 cents a litre. The rest of the cast is bizarre. Pam
Grier? Awesome. Wilmer Valderrama? Well, maybe not awesome, but at least left-of-centre enough to be fun. For all the familiar names in the cast, it was an unfamiliar one that grabbed my attention: Gugu Mbatha-Raw. I think a new star might have been born there. PB: She has a star quality and I did enjoy seeing Tekei even if his subplot was ridiculous. This is a comfort food movie. For the price of admission you get pretty actors, a comfy moral and a happy ending. There’s nothing wrong with cinematic empty calories, I just could have used some realism, edge and creativity.

Movie reviews The Trip
Genre: Comedy Director: Michael Winterbottom Stars: Steve Coogan, Rob Brydon, Claire Keelan 881 1⁄2
The Trip consists of little more than British comedians Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon embarking on a road trip across Northern England to visit a variety of local restaurants and bicker about their lives and careers. That’s really Armadillo Genre: Documentary Director: Janus Metz 881
Like Restrepo before it, Armadillo is an embedded combat doc: Danish director Janus Metz huddled down with members of his homeland’s military during an engagement in Afghanistan and

it, and yet from that simple premise comes one of the funniest comedies of the year. The extended conversation plays like a battle of egos between two old friends, Coogan more famous yet insecure about his place in show business, while Brydon feels content as a B-lister. It’s low-key drama, but a cripplingly funny comedy with a nice melancholic representation of middle-aged listlessness. PHIL BROWN

recorded what went down. The film is at once more harrowing and less measured than Restrepo: if its imagery of men caught in the hell of war is more vivid (and gruesome), its sense of the larger picture is blurrier. But it’s still strong, compelling documentary filmmaking. ADAM NAYMAN
“ONE OF THE YEAR’S
Forestier is good as the lithe, promiscuous protagonist, and so is Jacques Gambin as her newest attempted conquest, but there are just too many different comic and stylistic strategies in play here: between the explicit sexual content, Woody Allenstyle mock-doc interludes and loudly unsubtle political subtext, the film is just too diffuse to work.
Genre: Foreign Director: Michel Leclerc Stars: Sara Forestier, Jacques Gamblin 88 1⁄2
That delicious visual pallet does much to smooth over the films’ ample flaws, the most glaring being an episodic structure and a child’s sing-song voiceover that hampers the meditative tone Clarkson otherwise strives so hard to achieve. Still, a Canadian spaghetti western — Sergio Leone by way of CBC — is unique and for such a low-budget picture, the orchestral music is positively majestic. CHRIS ALEXANDER
Genre: Western Director: Wyeth Clarkson Stars: Andrew Walker 88 1⁄2
Director Wyeth Clarkson invests his Can-con western The Mountie — in which a steel-jawed Red Serge (Andrew Walker) liberates a town from the grip of evil opium dealers — with the eye of an artist, as breathtaking Yukon vistas and ultra-saturated colours fill the screen.

A short retail career — “It was not my forte,” he says — saw a manager harp on him about “hanger integrity,” which he explains is “the act of making sure all your hangers in a closet or on a clothing rack face the exact same way.” But he doesn’t remember her as horrible. “Passive aggressive, yes, and very detail oriented, but horrible, no.” His current boss, Saturday Night Live head honcho Lorne Michaels, gets
more effusive praise. “I picture him laughing a lot,” he says. “I think that is what keeps him so spry.” In Horrible Bosses, the handsome actor — he’s good-looking enough to have dated January Jones! — plays Kurt, who, along with Jason Bateman and Charlie Day, plot to kill their evil employers. “I just think Jason and Charlie are so great,” he says. “I watched and thought, ‘Golly, they’re so frickin’ funny. I hope people are all right with me.’” The plot sounds sinister, but the movie isn’t serious in any way. “I don’t know if any of our characters go through an emotional arc,” he laughs. “It never gets too
dark. There’s not going to be any copycat situations. It’s not going to start things up around the country, or the world for that matter.” It’s a buddy comedy expanded to three, just like another big hit this summer, The Hangover Part 2. “People, if they want to be crappy about it will say, ‘Oh, they want to be The Hangover,’ but it is totally different.” I mention a tweet someone sent after seeing Horrible Bosses. “Three is the new two,” it read. “I’ve been working on my own theory that four is the new rule of comedy in this new generation,” he says. “One establishes the premise, two hits it, third is

the punch line, then the fourth one is a comment on what the first three were.” Horrible Bosses is being released amidst the crash,
boom, bang of the summer blockbusters. I ask him if he’s concerned about competing with the likes of Transformers.
“Out of the movies that are being released around it, it’s the one I would go see,” he says. “I just happen to be in it, which is nice.”

Kevin James makes a family film that will entertain kids — and adults
Does the idea of Kevin James starring in a comedy alongside a bunch of talking zoo animals sound ridiculous? Maybe a little corny? Kevin James himself would agree with that. “I was immediately not into doing an animal movie,” he confesses. “It just felt so kinda goofy to me to do it, and then as I started thinking about it more — if we could make it a great story where you didn’t need animals, they’re just kind of like buddies that could add to the film, I started getting more and more interested in it.” That’s how the King of Queens star made his peace with starring in
Zookeeper, in which he plays a zoo employee and animal lover who feels he must ditch the job he loves in order to impress an ex who is reconsidering him. Once the animals reveal they can talk, they coach James’ character on how to win his lady back. The actor is pleased with the end result of the film, but working directly with live zoo animals was another story. “The bears were close to us and all I would do was just plan my escape route,” he says. “Like, ‘I know the cameraman’s a smoker. I could push him in the way and then I’ll be back in my trailer watching Sports Center.’ That’s the way I would plan it and it was scary at times.”
“I’ve always loved physical comedy ... I loved Jackie Gleason — anybody who was big and could move, I like a lot.” KEVIN JAMES, ON THE DEMANDS OF HIS ROLE IN ZOOKEEPER
Kevin James alongside his primate co-star in Zookeeper.
The animals are voiced by some Hollywood juggernauts — Adam Sandler, Cher, Nick Nolte, Sylvester Stallone, Judd Apatow and
Jon Favreau — all of whom, James says, were excited about the strength of the film’s script. “They felt like it was go-
ing to be a good movie and they decided to jump on board and so it makes it easier for any character when you know who is
playing that part,” he says, referencing the process of acting with their voice performances in mind. One thing the star is also adamant about was his desire to make a family film. “We just wanted it to be a funny, funny movie for everybody, where you can feel comfortable bringing your kids,” he says. “I’ve gone to movies with my kids and I’m bored out of my skull. There’s just no comedy for adults so I wanted something where it’s comedy for everybody.”

Sacred and profane: Into the world of Fellini Italian director Federico Fellini is the subject of new exhibit PHOEBE HO
SCENE@METRONEWS.CA
You’re immediately transformed into a celebrity. Stepping foot inside the TIFF Bell Lightbox’s new Fellini exhibit, a photo of paparazzo’s holding cameras comes to life, their bulbs flashing blindly as you walk past. Threading between fantasy and reality, the exhibit — Fellini: Spectacular Obsessions — mirrors the world of Federico Fellini, the Italian director famous for films like La Dolce Vita, La Strada and 81⁄2. Whether you’re a big Fellini fan or have absolutely no idea who he is, this new exhibit will give you insight into the director’s interesting and inspired thought processes. The entire exhibition space is designed with scaffolding, representing the sense of temporariness that is so prevalent in Rome and in Fellini’s work. “I think there’s a certain play between reality and artificiality in Fellini’s films. You’re kind of always aware that something is happening on set, but the recon-
struction of reality is so much more interesting,” said Noah Cowan, Bell Lightbox Artistic Director of the exhibition. Fellini’s work and his inspiration are examined separately in the show. A neon sign marks the entrance of each — giving the exhibition spaces the feel of a Roman storefront. The rooms are divided into the “sacred and the profane,” as Cowan puts it, featuring Fellini’s obsession with scandals and his recreation of them in his work. In the opening scene of La Dolce Vita, Fellini recreated an iconic moment in Italian history, when a statue of Christ was transported above the streets by a helicopter. “What was so interesting about Fellini was that until La Dolce Vita, the Catholic Church was quite enamoured with him,” said Cowan. “They considered him to be a catholic filmmaker.” Fellini may have been a prominent figure back in the ’60s, but his work is relevant to everything we know in pop culture today, according to Cowan. “When something that
seems obscene crops up like Jersey Shore, it becomes imminently understandable when one watches a Fellini film,” he said.
Book of Dreams The Book of Dreams is Fellini’s own personal journal, documenting his dreams and most private thoughts. This diary is a compilation of sketches and notes of the famous filmmaker’s bizarre and irrational fantasies. “They’re quite an extraordinary document of how creative talent takes his own world outside his own interior life and externalizes it in an art form,” said Noah Cowan, Bell Lightbox Artistic Director of the exhibition.

Good eats and free entertainment Annual CHIN Picnic offers taste of city’s cultures SUBMITTED

Introducing the HTC Incredible S 4G smartphone on Canada’s fastest 4G network. TM
IAN GORMELY
METRO TORONTO
You really can’t know someone until you’ve eaten with them; likewise you really can’t know a culture until you’ve sampled its culinary staples. So the annual CHIN Picnic, which boasts over 25 food vendors serving different international fare to over 250,000 visitors is a good chance to get to know a lot about a lot of people. The picnic was started in 1966 by none other than Johnny Lombardi as a way to promote his then brand new multicultural radio station CHIN 1540. Originally billed as a “Spaghetti Dig-in,” held on Toronto Island, it was clearly geared towards the city’s Italian population. “But it was always geared towards ethnicity and multiculturalism and celebrating our different heritages,” says Johnny’s
Moves at the speed of your social life.
The CHIN Picnic boasts over 25 food vendors.
daughter, Theresa, who after her father passed away in 2002 has organized the event each year with her brother. “It was very novel back then. My dad was quite the pioneer in his vision.” The event was moved from the Island to its current home at Exhibition Place Park in the early ’80s, as the ferries were unable to handle the ever-increasing crowds in search of good eats and free entertainment. “When we were on the Island we couldn’t do the foods as much. When we came to the exhibition place grounds it was so much easier to bring in the vendors.”
The HTC Incredible S 4G makes your social life exactly that: Incredible. Experience full social networking capabilities at super-fast 4G speeds, an 8MP digital camera and HD camcorder, and a 4" super LCD touch screen. And get it all on Canada’s best network with the fastest 4G speeds and largest 4G coverage1.
Those vendors are generally local restaurants. This year visitors can expect the usual array of Italian and Southeast Asian dishes as well as new flavours from the Caribbean and South America. “We’re growing with the different cultures that are coming into the city,” says Lombardi. All of the food is cooked fresh daily and the organizers make sure that there’s little overlap between each food kiosk. “We’re very proud of the events we put on and the cultural communities that we cater to,” she says. “It’s a great way to spend the day for next to nothing.”

Halle Berry’s custody battle getting nasty Actress files paperwork accusing her ex-husband of neglectful behaviour ALL PHOTOS GETTY IMAGES
Halle Berry’s custody battle with ex Gabriel Aubry over their daughter, Nahla, isn’t getting any friendlier, according to Us Weekly. The Oscar-winning actress appeared in family court in L.A. this week, submitting paperwork that accused Aubry of being neglectful and of violating an earlier custody agreement. Aubry was not present for the appearance. “Halle has serious concerns for her daughter’s well-being while in the care of her father for any extended period of time and is prepared to take all necessary steps to protect her,” Berry’s rep said.

Reason for divorce? “It’s Mel Gibson” BEST ANSWER EVER. After
two years of negotiations, Mel Gibson and his wife, Robyn Moore, have reportedly reached a divorce settlement, according to Hollyscoop. The terms of the agreement have not been disclosed, and the official paperwork isn’t expected to be filed until August. The couple had no prenuptial agreement, and they jointly own three homes in Malibu, an island in Fiji and a ranch in Costa Rica. When Moore initially filed for divorce in April 2009, she wrote in the reason for the split as “It’s Mel Gibson.”

MALE SUPERMODELS PAST AND PRESENT

Fantastic Man
The story of how David Gandy and Dolce & Gabbana brought sexy back RICHARD PECKETT
“I have more determination than a lot of people and I’m absolutely stubborn.�
METRO WORLD NEWS
“I’m a big believer in, ‘don’t believe in your own hype,’� says David Gandy. As muse to Dolce & Gabbana, he’s arguably the world’s most famous male model of today. But as he says, “I wouldn’t have the audacity to call myself a supermodel.� This is a man who walks down runways dressed in nothing but tightie whities for a living, so you might assume he’s being facetious. You’d be wrong. We met at his model agency in London following the especially lavish, moviestar style launch in Milan of his eponymous book by Dolce & Gabbana. “It’s been a surreal weekend, go-

It was Gandy’s hot-blooded, Adonis-like masculinity in the Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue fragrance campaign (above) that got him noticed for all the right reasons by housewives and jealous husbands around the world. David Gandy by Dolce & Gabbana, dolce&gabbana.com, $150

ing from driving a classic Triumph around with a police escort and everyone screaming one day to going back to Sainsbury’s supermarket the next,� the 30year-old says. Yes, David Gandy goes to the supermarket. He may be shaped like an inverted triangle with abs of steel but he is, in layman’s terms, a regular, “nice guy� working in a notoriously bitchy field. How has an unassuming man made it to the top of one of the most
notoriously back-stabby industries? “I have more determination than a lot of people and I’m absolutely stubborn,� he says. He’s so headstrong, in fact, that he once stormed out of an important casting when asked to shave his trademark mane. “They said, ‘That’s our look and that’s what we have to do but it’s your choice if you want to leave,� he explains. “So I packed my bags and left.� It’s a willfulness that Gandy assures me he assert-
ed when making the book, which includes more than a few butt shots and photos of him playfully holding phallic-shaped objects near his mouth. He explains: “For a lot of the photos, [Domenico and Stefano] probably wanted to go further than me, but we reigned it in a bit,� he says. In fashion terms, the union of man and brand was a game changer. “People said I changed the industry but it wasn’t me, it was Dolce & Gabbana and Mario Testino. We did the white pants in Light Blue and then [Emporio] Armani followed with David Beckham,� he says. Gandy represented a breakaway from the effete-looking, super skinny Dior guy that had become so popular. A waif, Gandy is not. And he’ll be promoting his muscle man ethos with his very own fitness and nutrition iPhone app later this year. “After 10 years in the industry, I can actually say what, fitness-wise, absolutely works. There’ll be new techniques from the U.S. and I’ll be simplifying complex terms,� he says. Sounds like supermodel material to us.

STEPHEN DUPUIS HOME @METRONEWS.CA
Tomorrow is Canada Day, but the spirit of Thanksgiving always comes to me on this day as I think about how much we have to be grateful for. With my housing hat on, I think we should be pleased with our very high
rate of homeownership and our healthy housing market, particularly compared with the U.S. In the U.S., home prices have declined precipitously, home foreclosures are in the millions, and an estimated 25 per cent of homeowners carry mortgages higher than the value of their homes. With housing inventory levels at record highs, U.S. housing construction is a fraction of what it was at the peak. It will be a long,
long time before U.S. housing markets recover the lost ground of the last four orfive years — longer before they begin to grow again. Canadian home prices suffered a slight setback during the crisis but have more than recovered any lost ground. Housing construction has roared back as well, which is great from the standpoint of jobs, investment and tax revenues flowing to all levels of government. Here in the GTA, total new home sales are
running 12 per cent ahead of last year. That’s thanks to the fiscal policy of the Bank of Canada which has led to today’s low interest rates, combined with the efforts of Federal Finance Minister Jim Flaherty to strike a perfect balance with respect to housing finance rules.

If you’ve ever carted home some unfortunate monstrosity from a beach vacation and rued it, take heart. That’s not the kind of beach decor we’re talking about here. This summer, retailers are offering decor that evokes the sand and surf, but with a sophistication that makes it work as a seasonal accent to most rooms no matter what your decorating style.

RENT TO OWN FURNACE ISSUE LEGAL MATTERS JEFFREY COWAN HOME @METRONEWS.CA
Q. We purchased a home approximately four months ago with very few hassles or problems. Everything went smoothly until about a week ago when
our lawyer contacted us and informed us that the furnace we thought we owned and had bought with the house was actually on a rent to own program and still had around $1,500 left to pay on the original contract. The sellers had been paying the monthly installments since we took possession of the house but were now wanting us to assume the contract and finish paying for the furnace; or have it removed at which time we are free to install our own sys-

tem. What would you suggest?
A. Normally, when you purchase a property, the heating system is included in the purchase price unless excluded under the ‘fixtures’ section of the contract. You had no way of knowing that the furnace was not fully paid for unless it was revealed in the negotiating process when you submitted your offer to buy the property. My position as your lawyer would simply
be that you purchased a home with a heating system and so either the sellers must immediately pay for the entire furnace. Otherwise, you may have to take them to small claims court (unless they continue along with their payments). One way or the other it is definitely the ultimate responsibility of the vendors to make sure your furnace is yours.

Answer: As a matter of fact, there is! The toilet paper roll is meant to go over not under, that is UNLESS you have a cat. If you are a cat owner, you will want the toilet paper to go under to save
yourself lots of grief. Having the toilet roll go over provides nothing but encouragement to a playful cat to make a mess and unroll the toilet roll so that you have a mess when you wake up in the morning!

The addition of jerk seasoning gives this burger a kick.
What better way to celebrate Canada Day than in the backyard with family and friends? This year, while you’re toasting the nation’s 144th birthday, incorporate unique food items that reflect the multiculturalism of our country with these Grilled Honey & Lime Prawns and Jamaican Jerk Burgers. Jerk seasoning, a Jamaican marinade that is normally used with chicken, gives the burger a new twist. Meanwhile, the combination of honey and lime in the prawns perfectly balances sweet and sour. From the editors of Creative Homeowner, Canada Grills! not only features recipes but also an introduction to grilling, barbe-
cue and smoking terms, temperatures, tips by Barry “CB” Martin, and more than 50 of CB’s EZ recipes.

Morrow sinks Pirates

2 1
BLUE JAYS
PIRATES
The Toronto Blue Jays staged a late seventhinning rally Wednesday night to back an outstanding pitching performance from starter Brandon Morrow and edged the Pittsburgh Pirates 2-1. Despite entering the contest in an ugly 0-for-11 slump, Blue Jays outfielder Rajai Davis jump-started the decisive inning with a one-out, ground-rule double — his second of two on the night. Shortstop Yunel Escobar, who spoiled what could have been a strong scoring chance in the first by trying to stretch a leadoff single into a double, promptly hit a ground ball into centrefield to score Davis. Eric Thames tied the game for the Blue Jays (4041) with his first career major league homer in the sixth inning. Two runs was all Morrow would need, as the right-hander dominated through seven innings, surrendering just four hits, while striking out 10 as the Pirates fell to 40-39. Morrow went his first 31⁄3 innings without allowing a baserunner until rookie infielder Chase d’Arnaud singled down the third-base line. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Danny Koevermans and Torsten Frings pose with Toronto coach Aron Winter.
Red dawn for TFC? Struggling club tries to put dark days behind it by signing European marquee players Frings and Koevermans to multi-year deals After a dismal start to the season, Toronto FC offered some hope for the future Wednesday by signing a pair of marquee players in German midfielder Torsten Frings and Dutch striker Danny Koevermans. The two players offer leadership and a proven pedigree, said head coach Aron Winter. And Winter promised more new faces ahead for his struggling team, which was winless in nine Major League Soccer outings before beating the visiting Vancouver Whitecaps 2-1
Caps beaten Nick Soolsma’s 54thminute penalty gave Toronto FC a much-needed 1-0 win over the Vancouver Whitecaps Wednesday night in an MLS battle of the basement.
Wednesday night . “I think there are going to be more changes,” Winter told a news conference. “But it depends also if I can get the players in MLS that I want, then it’s possible (the changes come soon-
er).” Otherwise, he suggested, the changes will come in the off-season. The 34-year-old Frings and 32-year-old Koevermans join Canadian midfielder Julian de Guzman as the MLS’s side’s designated players. Frings, who most recently played for Werder Bremen, has won 79 caps for Germany while Koevermans (PSV Eindhoven) has four caps for the Netherlands. “A massive step,” is how Paul Mariner, Toronto’s di-
rector of player development, summed up the acquisitions. He called the two imports “unbelievable role models” for the other squad members. Koevermans averages a goal every two games, said Winter. Neither player will have come cheap, although TFC declined to detail contract terms on the deals. The two newcomers won’t be eligible to begin play for Toronto FC until July 20 against FC Dallas.

WHO WILL HOIST THE GREY CUP?
CFL EXTRA POINTS DAN TOTH
SPORTS@METRONEWS.CA
Throwing away the mortgage money on a potential Grey Cup winner before the season even starts is pure lunacy, especially in the most unpredictable pro sports league on the planet. But we’re playing with house money, so let’s lay down some odds and proj-
ect the sure shots, long shots and haven’t-got-ashots for the upcoming 2011 CFL season. Montreal, 3-1: The twotime defending Grey Cup champs have made three straight appearances in the title game and there is no reason to believe “Les Larks” are finished picking up CFL jewelry. QB Anthony Calvillo is another year older (38) and is without SB Ben Cahoon (retired) and RB Avon Cobourne (free agency), but the Als are king of the hill until someone knocks them off. Calgary, 4-1: The
Stamps have 2010 most outstanding player Henry Burris back at the helm and he’s always a threat, despite significant changes along the O-line. Burris has Joffrey Reynolds, the CFL’s top RB, in the backfield. On defence, the secondary is without CBs Brandon Browner (NFL) and Dwight Anderson (free agency). The Stamps have plenty to prove after following up their 2008 Grey Cup win with two
West final losses. Saskatchewan, 5-1: Significant changes in 2011, including a rebuilt coaching staff under newcomer Greg Marshall, could affect the Green Giants. The Riders also lost SB Andy Fantuz (NFL), but bolstered Darian Durant’s O-line with the addition of Alex Gauthier and George Hudson. B.C., 6-1: The heat is on head coach Wally Buono to get his Lions into the Grey Cup at B.C. Place

Argonauts Team’s underdog status fading after trip to playoffs last season
Cleo Lemon won a training camp battle to be Toronto’s top QB.
Last season, Jim Barker and the Toronto Argonauts had the element of surprise working for them. That won’t be the case in 2011. Barker made a triumphant return to Toronto last year, leading the club to a 9-9 record and a berth in the CFL playoffs. It was the Argos’ first post-season berth since 2007 and the team upset Hamilton in the opening round before losing to the eventual Grey Cup-champion Montreal Alouettes in the East Division final. In the off-season, Barker was honoured for Toronto’s turnaround — the franchise had won just seven games combined the previous two seasons. He was named the CFL’s coach of the year by the Football Reporters of
Canada. But what comes with that now is expectation because Toronto won’t be sneaking up on anyone in 2011. Rivals will fully understand the impact tailback Cory Boyd can have in Toronto’s offensive attack after the CFL rookie finished second overall in rushing with 1,359 yards. And defensive co-ordinators will have plenty of game film to pore over when preparing to face secondyear starter Cleo Lemon. “We don’t want to be a team that surprises, we want to be a team that’s solid week in and week out, year in and year out that does things the right way,” Barker said. “People can call us ‘smoke and mirrors,’ what-

Stadium in November. Helping his chances is QB Travis Lulay, who proved late last season that he has the arm and leadership ability to get it done. Lulay will have 2010 most outstanding offensive lineman Ben Archibald, a free agent from Calgary, buying him time in the backfield. Hamilton, 10-1: The Tabbies could be contenders in the East but have struggled in the playoffs. The addition of free agent RB Avon Cobourne could provide the missing ingredient in the post-season.
Edmonton, 20-1: Topto-bottom changes this season will make for a long year for the Green and Gold. Could miss the playoffs. Toronto, 30-1: A solid D got the Argos into the East final last year, but they will go no farther without a QB. Winnipeg, 50-1: The Blue Bombers were 4-14 last season, but nine of those losses were by four points or less. A healthy Buck Pierce at quarterback could turn the agony of defeat into the joy of victory, but don’t bet on it.

Montreal is the favourite to win the Grey Cup, Dan Toth predicts.
face increased expectations ever, that’s their opinion. “For us, our players came back in very good shape and very focused and we were able to start on a different level. Where last year we started on level zero, now maybe we’re on level 10 and that’s a huge difference for us.” For the second straight year, Lemon emerged from a quarterback competition in training camp with the No. 1 job. Barker declared the starter’s position wide open after acquiring veteran Steven Jyles from the Winnipeg Blue Bombers to compete with Lemon, backup Dalton Bell, sophomore Canadian Danny Brannagan and rookie free agent B.J. Hall. Jyles missed most of training camp recovering from shoulder surgery, leaving a leaner Lemon and Bell to again battle for the starter’s job. Unlike last year, when Bell outper-
“Our goal remains the same, which is to win a Grey Cup. The players who are here are the ones we believe give us the best chance to win.” ARGOS COACH JIM BARKER
formed Lemon during camp, Lemon captured the No. 1 position legitimately this time around. And Barker said having a season of Canadian football under his belt will help Lemon this year. “He’s got a better command of our offence,” Barker said. “He knows better what to expect from us and from the other teams in the league.” While he helped Toronto secure a playoff berth, Lemon endured a rollercoaster first season in the CFL. The six-foot-two, 215pounder completed 61.7 per cent of his passes, but had more interceptions (19) than touchdowns (15). And with Lemon, Toronto’s of-
fence was last in the CFL in scoring (20.7 points per game), total yards (316.3 per game) and passing yards (221.1 per game). Instead, Toronto used the combination of stout defence and stellar special teams play from returner Chad Owens to manufacture wins in 2010. Owens, the CFL’s outstanding special teams player last year, was nothing short of sensational. The 28year-old led the league in combined yards (3,288), punt return yards (1,060), punt return average (12.6), kickoff return yards (1,216), missed field goal return yards (425) and tied for the league lead with four kickreturn touchdowns.
Owens also became the fifth player in league history to accumulate 1,000 punt and kickoff return yards in the same season. And under the leadership of rookie special teams coach Mike O’Shea — a former standout Argos linebacker — the unit came up big throughout the season with either timely Owens returns or important third-down gambles. But Owens also saw action during training camp on offence and Barker hopes to have him contribute more this year on that side of the ball. “We’ll use him a lot more,” Barker said. “He didn’t come to us until after training camp last year and it’s tough to implement guys in after camp is over. “He was just trying to learn our stuff so we couldn’t move him around. Now we’re able to do that and he’s going to create prob-
lems for people. He’ll play all over the field and be used in a multitude of ways. Him with his hands on the ball is trouble.” Defensively, Toronto’s bend-but-don’t-break approach worked very well. The Argos finished in the middle of the pack in most defensive stats but were the most difficult to score against (league-low 24.6 points per game), which often kept the Double Blue in most games. Toronto will have to do without veteran defensive lineman Adriano Belli. The colourful defensive tackle retired in the off-season after missing much of last year with a leg injury. But the Argos will have rush end Ricky Foley from the start of the year. The former B.C. Lions star, who had a CFL-best 12 sacks in 2009, signed with Toronto midway through last year after being released by both
the Seattle Seahawks and New York Jets. The six-foot-two, 258pound native of Courtice, Ont.. only had one sack with the Argos and said he never really settled in because he was seemingly always playing catch-up “That was pretty much the whole year,” Foley said. “It was kind of like you just don’t have the connection with the guys. “Training camp is when you put things in like how your team is going to be. It’s when you mould your identity and what you’re going to be like and when you miss out on that it’s rough to come in halfway through the year and jump in. Now, we’re all on the same page, we’re all flying around and I know the defence inside and out. I can just be an athlete instead of being like a robot and thinking about what I have to do.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Roger Federer was eliminated in the Wimbledon quarter-finals for the second straight year Wednesday, squandering a two-set lead for the first time at a Grand Slam tournament and losing to Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 3-6, 6-7 (3), 6-4, 6-4, 6-4. The six-time Wimbledon champion barely looked challenged while winning the first two sets against the 12th-seeded Frenchman. But Federer, who had been 178-0 in matches in which he had won the opening two sets at a major tournament, was broken one time in each of the last three sets. “It’s kind of hard going out of the tournament that way, but unfortunately it does happen sometimes,” said Federer, who played in his 29th straight major quarter-final. “At least it took him sort of a special performance to beat me.” Federer, 16 times a Grand Slam champion, finished the match with only 11 unforced errors, half as many as Tsonga. “I was two sets down and I break. I did a good game of return and after that it was

Rafael Nadal also advanced, beating Mardy Fish 6-3, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4. The two-time champion will face fourthseeded Andy Murray in the semifinals. Murray defeated Feliciano Lopez 6-3, 6-4, 6-4. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Striker Sinclair determined to face France
MARTIN MEISSNER/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
No official decision will be made until 90 minutes before kickoff How Canadian captain can handle pain will be main factor: Team doctor With a look of resolve, Christine Sinclair strapped on her face mask and jogged onto the pitch Wednesday to practise with her team for the first time since breaking her nose three days earlier. But while her body language said nothing but sheer determination, her status for Canada’s do-ordie game Thursday against France at the FIFA Women’s World Cup is still unclear.

play? “Christine Sinclair is one of the best players in the world. Maybe the best player in the world,” said head coach Carolina Morace. “So for us, the damage is huge.” Canada’s team doctor Pietro Braina put the
chances of Sinclair playing at 40 per cent, but added “a lot can change in 24 hours.” Sinclair was out on the field at Ruhrstadionin barely looking the worse for wear, the only tell-tale sign of her injury her grey “Zorro” mask. During practice she took part in leaping header drills and shot the doctor a quick “It’s OK” when he checked on her. Sixth-ranked Canada must at least tie No. 7 France to move on to the quarter-finals.
Canadian captain Christine Sinclair practises Wednesday on the eve of a Group A match against France in the FIFA Women’s World Cup in Germany.
