Arson damage doubles: Cops

Protest. Signs

Number of incidents in the city holding steady but magnitude of devastation increasing, says leading investigator Damage costs associated with Calgary arsons have doubled over the past five years, leaving many more innocent residents affected by the actions of a few, says one of the city’s leading police investigators. Staff Sgt. Scott Sampson of the arson unit said his team has handled a typical caseload in recent years but the location and nature of the incidents has seen many more homes affected. “It really comes down to knowing your neighbours,” he advised. “If you see something suspicious, don’t sit back and do nothing.” The Calgary Police Service does not track overall damage costs linked to arson, as those numbers often change and are lumped in with other fire incidents, a spokesperson said yesterday. Sampson, however, who is one of three lead arson investigators, has done some tracking of his own files. He says last year’s num-

bers were particularly alarming as total damage costs were pegged at $27.5 million, up about $9 million over the two previous years. This year has also seen a number of devastating arson incidents as well, including one earlier this month that forced crews to demolish a triplex in the 3900 block of 1st Street Northeast. Kaila Ladd was living in the building at the time. “I wouldn’t wish this on my worst enemy,” she said yesterday, noting her family is still searching for a new home. “Your world definitely tilts and you’re left flailing for a while.” Added relief could be on the way for renters like Ladd, according to Alberta municipal affairs spokesperson Michelle Davio, as the province has consultations planned for both the building and fire code later this year. “It’s always something we are looking at,” she said.

Dealing with arson Investigations. Staff Sgt. Scott Sampson says his unit is typically involved in 30 fire investigations each month. Of those, anywhere from 6-10 are actually found to be a result of arson. New legislation. The Alberta government did pass new legislation in 2009 aimed at lessening damage caused in high-intensity residential fires; however, the new measures do not apply to communities constructed before then. Residential sprinklers. Calgary city council recently explored making residential sprinklers mandatory in newly built homes; however, they were informed changes would need to be made nationally first and then adopted provincially.

Cheney’s speech draws critics A few dozen Calgarians gathered in front of the Fairmont Palliser hotel last night in the hours before a scheduled speech by former U.S. vice-president Dick Cheney. Shouting criticism of the George W. Bush administration that Cheney served in, the protesters remained generally peaceful. No arrests had been reported at press time.

news: calgary Woman testifies at torture case Lindsay Airhart was horrified to see how her former boyfriend had deteriorated from the big, strong, carefree man she had known to the bruised, beaten and emaciated individual lying in a hospital bed looking back at her. “He was a frail, lifeless body,” Airhart said softly from the witness stand. “He looked like he had been starved. He had burn marks inside of his legs. Every couple of inches there was a cut or a bruise. Some were infected. Some were new and some were old.” Airhart was the first witness yesterday at the trial of Dustin Paxton. The Crown alleges Paxton brutalized, tortured and starved his former roommate over a period of years before dropping him off at a Regina hospital in April 2010. The 31-year-old is charged with aggravated assault, unlawful confinement and sexual assault. The roommate, who just turned 28, can't be named because of a courtordered publication ban. Paxton has pleaded not guilty to the charges. Airhart, 29, testified that she and the alleged victim had had a relationship and that even though they eventually split up, they remained good friends. She described her former boyfriend as being about five-foot-eight and weighing 220 pounds — slightly overweight but a happy and healthy individual. THE CANADIAN PRESS

17 Avenue crosswalk causes concern

Two people were transported to hospital with minor injuries Monday morning Flashing pedestrian lights were installed in 2004 KATIE TURNER

@METRONEWS.CA

After two pedestrians were struck at a 17 Avenue intersection Monday, one business owner is pushing for an upgrade to the area crosswalk. Although flashing lights denote a crosswalk at the intersection of 17 Avenue and 15 Street Southwest, Sean Carter, owner of BikeBike, said he’s had too many close calls. “Every day that I cross that crosswalk, it is an ab-

solute death trap,” he said, adding he doesn’t let his eight-year-old son cross alone. “I myself have almost been hit numerous times.” Joe Shackleton commutes on his bicycle and uses the intersection five days a week and said he wasn’t surprised to learn of the recent pedestrian collision. “Without a doubt, it’s the most difficult part (of my commute),” said Shackleton. “There’s been many instances where I’m halfway through the inter-

section and a car will blow right through.” Spokesperson for city transportation Julie Yepishina-Geller said when the pedestrian lights were installed seven years ago, the traffic volume didn’t warrant anything further. “That specific area, we consider it to have a pretty good visibility,” she said, adding those with concerns should file a 311 complaint. “We obviously can be everywhere at all times so we kind of count on people, if they’re finding is-

Philippine capital cleans up after typhoon floods kill at least 18 Some areas remain flooded Emergency services and residents in the Philippine capital cleaned up and restored electricity today, local time, after a powerful typhoon unleashed floodwaters that killed at least 18 people and sent huge waves crashing over seawalls. Most deaths occurred in and around metropolitan Manila, which already was soaked by heavy monsoon rains ahead of the arrival of Typhoon Nesat, which brought more downpours and wind gusts of up to 150 kilometres per hour. The typhoon blew out of the Philippines today packing winds of 120 km/h and was expected to make landfall on China’s Hainan Island tomorrow evening or

Satellite makes a splash in the ocean U.S. space officials have figured out where that dead NASA satellite fell back to Earth on Saturday. NASA now says satellite debris scattered over the south Pacific Ocean — far away from large land masses. NASA says the U.S. Air Force calculated the satellite entered Earth’s atmosphere generally above American Samoa. But pieces of it did not start hitting the water for another 480 kilometres to the northeast, southwest of Christmas Island. On Saturday, scientists said it was possible some pieces could have reached northwestern Canada. But NASA said yesterday new calculations show it landed earlier than they thought.

Costume put on ice An ice cream shop in Ocala, Fla., admits it’s licked: It has had to get rid of its ice cream mascot because passersby kept mistaking him for something less innocent — a hooded Ku Klux Klan protester.

She’s back home with her daddy. A tip from a wary subway rider in Montreal has ended a three-year hunt for a missing British girl. Seven-year-old Pearl Gavaghan Da Massa has had an emotional reunion with her father, authorities said yesterday. Police and officials with the Canadian Centre for Child Protection said Pearl has returned to her home in Manchester, along with the father who relocated to Canada to find her. Police allege the girl was abducted in 2008 by her mother, Helen Gavaghan, and spirited through three countries. The girl was discovered

Henry Da Massa and his daughter, Pearl, have been reunited after three years.

when Gavaghan’s suspicious behaviour sounded an alarm for the subway passenger, who contacted police, said centre official Christy Dzikowicz. “He just had a sense there was something wrong,” Dzikowicz said.

Pearl’s father, Henry Da Massa, moved to Toronto in 2010. “It was only when we got on the plane that I really knew we were coming home,’’ Da Massa said. Gavaghan is in custody in Montreal. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Housing market cooling: Report Consumer caution spilling over into real estate sales House prices expected to level off over the next couple of years, Scotiabank says Canada’s housing market stands out globally for its strength, but economic uncertainty and weaker consumer confidence could deter new buyers, a Scotia Economics report says. It says Canada’s housing market is notable for its “resilience and longevity.” But even though Canadian real estate prices were up five per cent year

over year in the April to June period, they started to level out in July and August, Adrienne Warren, a Scotiabank senior economist, said yesterday. “I think the other factor we’ve seen in the slowing and softening of prices just reflects the fact that the housing market itself has become fairly balanced between the number of buyers and sellers out there,”

she said. “If anything, I think the cooling off in prices is positive for longer-term affordability for buyers.” While interest rates are expected to remain low for some time, the Canadian economy is showing signs of losing some momentum, a factor that would affect house purchases. “So the question mark will be to keep an eye on

On the house Of the nine major developed markets tracked by the Scotia Economics report, only Canada, France and Switzerland showed housing-price increases year over year.

Canada’s real estate market is weakening, but at a slower pace than most other markets in the developed world, a Scotiabank report says.

Alone time important: Facebook co-founder One of the founders of Facebook says that even he needs a break from social media from time to time. Chris Hughes told business leaders in Montreal yesterday that while he cherishes the power of Facebook and Twitter, they can’t replace old-fashioned human contact. “I want to continue to live in a world where people can sit through a meal without looking at a phone,” he said. “I want to have days when I only spend a little bit of time in front of a screen.” Hughes was among the small group of Harvard students who helped Mark Zuckerberg found Face-

book in 2004. He also served as head of online organizing for Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential campaign. These two achievements alone are likely to secure him a key spot in the modern history of the Internet, never mind an estimated net worth of $700 million. But Hughes also described the limits of social media, noting the inherent tension between connectivity and privacy. “Most of the time I don’t want all of my friends knowing exactly where I am at every moment and exactly what I’m doing,” he said.

RIM stock jumps amid rumours of Carl Icahn investing One of Research In Motion’s Canadian shareholders says it would support U.S. investor Carl Icahn buying into the Waterloo, Ont., BlackBerry maker. “It’s been poor execution and poor innovation, and Apple has galloped ahead,” said Vic Alboini of Jaguar Financial, which has pressed for changes at RIM. He made the comments after RIM shares rose more than five per cent in afternoon trading yesterday (closing up 3.6 per cent) in the wake of reports Icahn is buying into the firm. Icahn has taken stakes in many big U.S. companies — from Motorola to Clorox — and forced them to restructure and become more profitable. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Cigarette packs to change Ottawa has finally approved bold new labelling for cigarette packages, telling tobacco manufacturers they have until March to conform. Health Minister Leona Aglukkaq says the edict shows the government is making good on last winter's promise to horrify smokers into not smok-

ing. The new labelling will cover 75 per cent of cigarette packages, and include graphic pictures of a cancer-infected mouth, and of an emaciated, cancerstricken Barb Tarbox. She was an antismoking activist before dying of lung cancer at the age of 42, and her story — among others — will be featured in the new packaging. Health advocates have praised the campaign, but were suspicious about the government’s resolve to implement it. THE CANADIAN PRESS

A TORTURE APOLOGIST AND A TRAFFIC OBSTRUCTOR Yesterday, at the end of a long day of strategic communications, the usual route home was blocked by police barriers, the sort of PAUL SULLIVAN thing traffic reporters call a METRO “police incident,” a long, unexplained delay leading to gridlock. The barriers, it turned out, were for former U.S. vice-president Dick Cheney, who was giving a talk at the Vancouver Club, the local pinnacle of snoot, and for the horde of protesters milling around the club demanding his speedy arrest, trial and conviction as a war criminal. It’s bad enough he’s thought of as a war criminal. He compounds his Darth Vader reputation by impeding the free flow of traffic. Dick Cheney: putative “In between, he war criminal … and pylon. Cheney was invited to waged war on speak in Vancouver by the half the world Bon Mot Book Club, which and approved of has a definite “Let them eat cake” lilt to it. And speaking interrogation cake, I hope they serve ‘techniques’ such of cherry slice at their as water meetings, and if they do, I hope they invite me. It’s my boarding and favourite. sleep Meanwhile, out on the deprivation, also street, at the barricades, the righteously indignant from known as the StopWar Coalition et al. ‘torture.’” wanted Cheney and the Bon Mot members to choke on their $500-a-plate rubber chicken. They see Cheney as the evil mastermind of all that’s wrong with U.S. foreign policy going back to the ‘80s, when as the congressman from Wyoming he voted against an initiative to free Nelson Mandela. It hasn’t helped his brand that he managed to dodge the draft at the beginning of his career and, near the end, shot his hunting buddy instead of a quail. Oops. In between, he waged war on half the world and approved of interrogation ‘techniques’ such as water boarding and sleep deprivation, also known as ‘torture.’ A hard man to like. Even worse, he remains truculently unapologetic for any of it. His memoir, which he’s currently flogging, is a 576-page un-apology that infuriates his critics. He has even infuriated his colleagues, such as former Secretaries of State Colin Powell and Condoleezza Rice, by calling them sissies. Still, to stomp your feet and holler inarticulate clichés does nothing to thwart a nasty old hombre like Dick Cheney. Maybe it makes you feel better, but it leads to indigestion among the members of the Bon Mot Book Club and doesn’t do much for weary columnists who would really like to get home, thank you. You’ve got to wonder who they’re going to invite to their next meeting. Hitler’s dead … isn’t he?

Wash in North Attleborough, Mass. on May 31. The Sun Chronicle reports that a woman vacuuming her vehicle at the business called police after she saw the 65-year-old Bailey in the nude. Police say Bailey was wearing shorts by the time they arrived at the scene and denied doing anything wrong. A judge also ordered Bailey to stay away from the car wash and the witness and to continue counselling. He will also be required to register as a sex offender.

Finding the hilarity in cancer — Seth Rogen talks about 50/50 Film was a tough sell but Rogen says it’s both true to life and funny

Selling a cancer comedy CHRIS HELCERMANAS-BENGE

NED EHRBAR

SCENE@METRONEWS.CA METRO WORLD NEWS IN HOLLYWOOD

Seth Rogen knew that with 50/50, he had an important and entertaining story to tell — his friend (and screenwriter) Will Reiser’s battle with a cancer diagnosis at the age of 25. But he also knew it was going to be a tough sell. So here’s how Rogen, who produced the film and co-stars in it with Joseph Gordon-Levitt, went about bringing a “cancer comedy” to theatres.

Don’t fear the C-word. “The first decision you have to make is to not shy away from what the movie’s about. I think you have to let people know it’s about cancer and then let them know that it’s not f---ing miserable to watch, and that was kind of our entire goal with the marketing, was to really represent what the movie is and really let them know that it’s honest and what it’s about and that it’s going to be a very truthful experience but at the same time it’s funny and it’s ultimately an enjoyable experience.”

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, left, and Seth Rogen star in 50/50.

But don’t put the C-word in the title. “We’re not stupid. We know a title like I’m with Cancer is repellent to some people. I liked it, but something you have to acknowledge being a filmmaker who wants people to see his movies is that what you like and what you know other people are going to like are two vastly different things at times. We thought it was stupid to go through great lengths to make a movie that was re-

ally accessible and enjoyable and crowd-pleasing and then give it a title that would potentially alienate most of the people who wanted to go see it.”

Find a new title — from wherever you can. “It’s hard to think of a f--ing title. We literally had a box on set that crew members put suggestions in. We offered, like, thousands of dollars if you could think of a title. And I don’t think 50/50 was any of those ti-

tles. I don’t know who came up with it ultimately. No one got the prize money. One guy on the crew put in like 50 names, and so I think we ended up giving him a couple hundred bucks. 50/50 is a fine title, you know, I get it. It’s a title that doesn’t repel you from the movie, which for a movie like this is huge.”

Aim for as large an audience as possible. “I’ve got to be honest, I’m not the kind of guy that

goes and sees little independent movies. It’s just not the types of movies I go see. I go see big commercial movies, generally speaking. I honestly don’t think a movie has to be built for a small audience in order to be creatively worthwhile. I think that you should be able to take an idea and make it in a way that everyone understands. To me, that’s what art is — taking a feeling and articulating it to people, you know?”

Kayak in the not-so-desolate

Desolation Sound

Majestic views of the coastal mountains await kayakers in Desolation Sound, B.C. PHOTOS: DENE MOORE/THE CANADIAN PRESS

Desolation Sound Marine Park, on the Sunshine Coast 170 kilometres north of Vancouver, winds its way around the twisted shoreline. The park, established almost 40 years ago, is the largest marine park in B.C. and a popular destination for boaters and kayakers. From the water, the majestic coastal mountains rise up abruptly from sea level to more than 2,400 metres, high enough to provide a stunning snowcapped backdrop for paddlers and to help them stay cool on even the hottest of days. According to legend, it was Capt. George Vancouver who dubbed the area Desolation Sound after his first voyage here in 1792, struck as he was by the remote and forbidding landscape. But the stunning beauty of the place — not to mention some rather significant improvements in access, gear and facilities — mean it’s anything but desolate now. At times during the peak season, the biggest problem kayakers and boaters might experience is finding a place to pitch a tent. After setting out from the small town of Lund, you can paddle to a provincial campsite on the Copeland Islands in Thulin Passage, a serene spot only about an hour’s kayak away.

My favourite spot in Canada

GAVIN CRAWFORD: FERNIE, B.C. ATEABUTNOE/FLICKR

I have been skiing and snowboarding since I was a kid growing up in Lethbridge, Alta., so when winter snows fall I always try to spend some time in the Rockies. One of my favourite places to ski or board is Fernie Alpine Resort, nestled in the southeast Kootenays right next to the historic mining town of Fernie B.C.. The snow they receive each year is legendary with more powder days than most other resorts. There are plenty of runs to choose from, and thanks to a renovation in 1999 almost double the skiable terrain as when I was young. The Lizard mountain range is beautiful

with jagged peaks that cut along the sky. I also enjoy the drive West on Highway 3 through the Crowsnest pass, which takes you right though the tiny town of Frank, Alta., which buried in a Massive rockslide in 1903. You can still see how far the rock stretches across the valley and it is a pretty humbling sight. So if you happen to feel like sailing down a mountain waist deep in champagne powder this win-

Increasing fees, pump dispensers in the shower, and lobbies as social hubs Welcome to hotels in 2011 Here are some details on six hotel trends bubbling up in the industry right now, and how they affect your stay. Increasing fees

ter, maybe I'll see you in Fernie.

Your hotel bill may include some unpleasant surprises. Not just the usual $20-a-day resort and amenity fee, which you pay whether or not you use the tennis courts and pool complex, but how about a required $12 housekeeping surcharge or a fee for storing your luggage in the lobby? Lobbies as social hubs

Gavin is a former cast member of this hour has 22 minutes, and has just finished filming Gavin Crawford’s Wild West on location in Alberta. You can catch him next in the upcoming Canadian feature French Immersion.

Colourful seating, free Internet service and trendy cocktail and coffee bars are helping to turn once-sterile hotel lobbies into social hubs. Hanson says while baby boomers might see the lobby as a place to meet

at 6 p.m. sharp before heading to a prearranged restaurant location, younger travellers may prefer to gather more informally in the lobby, hang out for a while, socialize and take their time choosing where they'll spend the evening. Pump dispensers

The advent of pump dispensers in hotel bathrooms is good and bad news for

guests. The good news: If you need more shampoo than what may be as little as a half-ounce in those small plastic containers, you can pump as much as you want from the dispenser. Also, you can feel greener by using the pumps. The bad news: What if you simply love those little bottles? THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Journey as important as destination

Horrible bosses can be psychos, too: Study HANDOUT

STUDENT VOICE

What I learned

ROMINA MCGUINNESS

LIFE@METRONEWS.CA METRO WORLD NEWS IN LONDON

Key take-aways from Heather’s experience:

HEATHER PAYNE TALENTEGG.CA

I took a bit of a winding road to get to where I am today. As a university student, I had no idea what I wanted to be. In third year, I landed a summer internship with a Fortune 500 company in the consumer packaged goods industry. It was a truly excellent experience, so I happily accepted an offer to join them full-time after graduation. About a month into my final semester at university, while on exchange in Hong Kong, it hit me. I was seeing the world for the first time, and it just didn’t feel right to move back to Canada and start my career. I felt like there was so much more to learn. So, I reneged on my offer and applied for a scholarship with the Chinese government. And I got it! I spent the summer backpacking around Europe and then moved to Xiamen, China, a small southern coastal city on the mainland and started my Master’s in International Relations. But, in fact, that wasn’t right for me either. Although I loved everything about my life in China outside of school, the academic learning curve

stopped being so curve-y after about six months and I felt like I had gotten what I needed out of the experience — mainly, time to think about the career I wanted to build for myself. After nearly 15 months, I moved back to Toronto with just a few Renminbi saved up, and no idea what I was going to do next. Shortly after I returned, I randomly ran into a former colleague of mine — we had managed a McDonald’s together in high school. She ended up referring me for a job at her company, and I worked there for a year before I realized where I truly belong — at a start-up where I currently work. Outside of work, I’m the founder of Ladies Learning Code (www.ladieslearningcode.com), a collective of women working to empower everyone to feel comfortable learning basic programming and other

Heather Payne tried different career paths before finding her niche.

Where Heather is now

In July, I joined Pinpoint Social, a Toronto-based start-up building on the Facebook platform. We have an application that helps brands and businesses run promotions, contests and coupon giveaways on their Facebook Page. I lead our sales and marketing effort, and I also manage our client relationships. technical skills. I also manage social media for the Ivey Alumni Association in Toronto. I think employers should be more under-

standing of the fact that young people may not know exactly what they want to do after graduation. But that doesn’t mean we aren’t capable of great things. Give a young person a challenge, give them ownership of the results, and I think many employers would be amazed by what we can come up with. It took me longer than I expected to find out where I belong, but the journey was valuable — it got me where I am today.

Do you hate your boss? Does their vileness go beyond them passing your work off as their own or making you deal with their dirty laundry? Paul Babiak, psychologist and co-author of Snakes in Suits: When Psychopaths Go to Work, analyzed the personality traits of over 200 corporate professionals across America. He used the standard Psychopathy Checklist developed by co-author Robert Hare from University of British Columbia. He found that four per cent of them exceeded or reached the cut off point for psychopathy — that’s an average of one in 25 people. Although psychos are weak on paper (poor performance appraisals), Babiak suggests that they thrive in the corporate world thanks to their ability to convince upper management of their strengths. “Psychopaths always make a good first impression. They are both charming and grandiose. In reality, they have low managerial skills and have zero loyalty to their company or profession. All they care about is themselves,” he explained to Metro. In short, psychopaths hide behind a beautiful mask. They come across as charismatic leaders but underneath there’s nothing but a hollow core. They don’t express feelings and show no remorse or guilt, Babiak believes. Studies have shown them to have difficulty in understanding the true nature of feeling, explaining their emotional poverty and acute insensitiveness. Half of Babiak’s maniac clients have come from the financial service indus-

try. Could the desire for money be meddling with the mind? Babiak thinks psychopaths live a parasitic lifestyle. “They’re parasitic predators, opportunists that latch on to people like parasites and suck out their resources. They seek an easy way to live life so are naturally attracted to where the money is: financial business.” Physical mannerisms can betray a psychopath’s true self. “Research has shown they tend to have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol, known as ‘co-morbidity.’ You may also of heard of the intense psychopathic stare, a blank glare devoid of emotion,” Babiak adds. Don’t fret. We’re not saying all bosses are on a mission to make your life miserable. Some of you may immediately jump to the conclusion your boss is a psycho because ultimately, we love sticking labels on just about everything in life. Psychopath or just plain cruel, whatever you do, don’t unleash your boss-related frustration via Facebook feed or tweet your tears. You only risk getting fired and you can wave goodbye to that severance pay.

Perception can be a dangerous thing. Kevin Johnson was a good worker. He had not been given any warnings or notice that his performance was unsatisfactory. In the spring of 2009, Johnson noticed he had not been called in for work. His roommate who worked for the same company had been called back but Johnson hadn’t heard a thing. When Johnson called in to find out what was going on he received an unexpected and painful surprise — his employer told him that because of his disability it would be too hard for him to work a long shift as he could not stand that long. But Johnson didn’t have a disability. He was overweight. Believing that this amounted to discrimination, Johnson filed a human rights com-

plaint. He testified at the recent hearing that he had weight problems when he was hired and had gained weight over the course of his employment. However, he had never submitted a request for accommodation and did not believe that his weight negatively affected his ability to carry out the duties of his job. The core issue was that Johnson’s employer believed that he had a physical disability, and treated him negatively because of it. Human Rights legislation across the country protects not only against actual disabilities, but also perceived ones. This means that all Johnson had to prove was that his employer per-

ceived him to have a physical disability and treated him differently as a result. In this case, Johnson’s employer told him flat out that he was not being offered work because of what they thought was his disability. This was a blatant violation of the human rights legislation and Johnson was awarded damages as a result. Johnson’s case is an important reminder to both employers and employees that what you see isn’t always what you get. In Johnson’s case his employer’s assumptions about his weight led directly to compensation. DANIEL LUBLIN IS AN EMPLOYMENT LAWYER WITH WHITTEN & LUBLIN LLP.

sports Final day of MLB season sure to be a wild one The Boston Red Sox maintained a share of the AL wild-card lead last night, using four home runs to beat the Baltimore Orioles 8-7 and set up a dramatic conclusion to the regular season. The skidding Red Sox were 6-19 in September before rebounding to edge the last-place Orioles. The win, combined with Tampa Bay’s 5-3 victory over the New York Yankees, kept Boston and the Rays tied with one game left. After blowing a ninegame lead in 23 days, the Red Sox send Jon Lester, Boston’s winningest pitcher, to the mound against Baltimore tonight in an effort to get into the post-season for the fourth time in five years. Boston will be looking to put together its first winning streak since sweeping a doubleheader from Oakland on Aug. 27. If the Rays and Red Sox remain tied after tonight, Tampa Bay will host a one-game playoff tomorrow. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Karlsson leads Flames past punchless Isles Second-year goaltender puts in solid effort to earn shutout for Calgary ALEX LIVESEY/GETTY IMAGES

Calgary’s Curtis Glencross scores on New York goalie Evgeni Nabokov in the second period last night.

Henrik Karlsson made 13 saves and Curtis Glencross scored the game winner last night as the Calgary Flames beat the New York Islanders 2-0 in NHL preseason action. With Calgary icing the more veteran lineup, the young kids on the Islanders found it difficult to generate much offence. When they did, Karlsson was there to shut the door. The six-foot-five Swede will once again back up Miikka Kiprusoff after going 4-5-5 in that role in his first year in the NHL last

season. The only offence Karlsson would need came at 4:10 of the second period

on a nice short-handed goal by Glencross, who is coming off a career-high 24-goal season that earned him a new $10.2-million US, four-year contract. Matt Stajan gained the Islanders blue-line and cut to his left, threading a pretty pass to Glencross behind the Islanders defence. Glencross continued across the top of the goal crease and tucked a backhand behind veteran Evgeni Nabokov. Calgary added a second goal at 4:21 of the third period when Lee Stempniak

finished a two-on-one with Alex Tanguay, taking a perfect set-up from the Flames veteran playmaker and firing his second preseason goal behind Nabokov’s replacement, Mikko Koskinen. Stempniak was acquired from the Phoenix Coyotes at the end of August in exchange for Daymond Langkow. Calgary improved to 2-30 with one pre-season game remaining tomorrow night versus the Phoenix Coyotes.

Engine

Not your average roof

Active spoiler

The powertrain lineup of the Coupé should be familiar to Mini fans. Base models are fitted with a 121-horsepower 1.6-litre four-cylinder engine, while the S features a 181-horse turbocharged 1.6. At the top of the scale is the John Cooper Works (JCW) edition that pumps out 208 horsepower from its turbo motor. The JCW also comes with an aero kit, Brembo-brand brakes, distinctive alloy wheels and a fancier interior.

The Coupé’s signature design piece and easily the most controversial is its helmet-look roof that, for added emphasis, is painted in a contrasting colour. The shape appears somewhat jarring and for many viewers will likely remain so. However there’s no denying the lid is a truly audacious feature that will cause people to stare wherever the Coupé goes. Edgy shapes such as this odd-looking top take guts to put it into production and the sculptors (and their bosses) at Mini are clearly risk takers.

In place of the squared-off liftgate on regular Minis, the Coupé features a large hatchback that opens very wide and very high to accommodate a reasonable amount of cargo. Built into the edge of the cargo door is an active spoiler (with manual override) that automatically extends whenever the Coupé exceeds 80 km/h. The wing isn’t just a decorative adornment, as Mini claims it applies up to 40 kilograms of downforce.

The roof is interesting, but is it fashion? Buy a Mini Coupé and you’ll have endless debates with your friends and family about it.

Mini has got a little surprise for you MALCOLM GUNN

DRIVE@METRONEWS.CA WHEELBASE MEDIA

People who consider Mini a niche brand will understand why the all-new Coupé was created. This sporty two-seater is a rolling fashion statement that dares to thumb its nose at practicality and convention.

It’s a car you would wear like an Armani suit or Vera Wang dress, which is for the label as much as the look and definitely not for everyday use. As Minis go, the Coupé is the Mini-est. In the marque’s storied 50-year-plus history it has never built a two-seat model, much less a model that shuns the

squared-off look in favour of a rounded roofline. Still, the car appears every inch a Mini, especially the lower body that looks as if it was lifted from the classic-Mini production line. In fact, the car’s basic proportions — length, width and distance between the front and rear

wheels — are similar to the current two-door Mini Cooper. It likely didn’t make any sense to reduce these values since the Mini is already mini enough and most owners only rarely use the rear-seat as a passenger repository. The only key value that has shrunk is the height, due to the

Coupé’s less upright windshield. Coupé pricing begins at about $25,000, which is about $1,500 more than a base hardtop. But as any fashionista knows, you pay more for trendy bespoke attire than for off-the-rack. For the no-boundaries adventurous, your Coupé carriage awaits.

Base price: $17,400 Cute econo-car newcomer offers alladult seating and Italian pedigree.

Volkswagen Golf/GTI Base price: $21,850 Practical, fun to drive and less costly than Mini. GTI adds performance-plus. WHEELBASE MEDIA

WE ALWAYS HURT THE ONES WE LOVE AUTO PILOT MIKE GOETZ DRIVE @METRONEWS.CA

We got word this week that when Prince William borrowed his father’s Aston Martin DB6 Mark II to drive his new wife away from Buckingham Palace on their wedding day, he may have driven the sports car somewhat imperfectly.

wedding day with a few people watching? His father’s prized ride, given to him by the Queen on his 21st birthday? Driving with the parking brake on? Come on? That’s good stuff… Makes you feel better about your own car abuse issues, especially those involving other people’s cars. Theoretical question: if you abuse somebody else’s car in the forest, and the owner doesn’t hear about it, did the abuse really happen? I say no. You’re actually doing the owner a favour by deciding it didn’t happen. Consider how awkward you would make them feel, if they had to ask you for monetary compensation? Because cars can’t talk back, they can take a fair amount of mild abuse, before they are forced to retaliate somehow. Leaving the parking brake on is a fairly common and mild in-

discretion. So is turning the engine on when it is already on. You get that wild screech, to remind you, and everyone within earshot, what a boneheaded move you just made — but you and your car seem to be able to recover quickly. Another pain I’ve inflected on my cars over the

years is turning the wipers on when they are frozen to the windshield. This can burn out a wiper motor, or strip the wiper transmission assembly. But worse is the knowledge that you just condemned the wipers and its power system to a few moments of silent, gut-busting misery, as they strain to

move in the frozen ice. Horrible. Once I drove my beloved original VW Beetle on the highway in third gear. I had the stereo so loud I didn’t realize the car was revving its little head off, until it was time to downshift to the gear I was already in. When I turned Deep Purple down, I could hear the VW

wailing away like an airplane on take-off. I enjoy looking after a vehicle’s maintenance needs, so you can’t accuse me, as you might of others, of abusing a vehicle through failing to provide the necessities of life. Not saying it’s you, but there are owners out there who haven’t changed their vehicle’s engine oil or air filter since the Federal Liberals were in power. And I’ve seen more than one owner driving around with their Check Engine light on, like it was just there as a suggestion, and not really a call to action. If you’re one of those people, take heed of what happened to stand-up comedian Dobie Maxwell: “My Check Engine light came on today. But I couldn’t check it; there was too much smoke. Then the Game Over light came on. I hadn’t seen that one before.”

While your car’s contact with the road is through the tread of its tires, your vehicle is actually riding on the cushion of air inside them. The pressure in your tires is of vital importance: for starters, it’s what keeps your tires on their rims. “The bead is the part of the tire that holds the tire on the wheel,” says Orazio Mastracchio, quality product manager for Canada at Pirelli Tire. “There is a groove in the wheel, which is called a hump. Once the tire is inflated, the bead sits in the hump, keeping the air in the tire hermetically sealed.” A tire has to be extremely low on air before it separates from the rim, but even a few pounds of pressure too low or high can be detrimental. If a tire is low, it creates more rolling resistance, which in turn wastes fuel — as much as two weeks’ worth over the course of a year. The tire also runs hotter, which can reduce its lifespan. If the pressure is too high, the tire will wear unevenly and produce a harsher ride.

Both over- and under-inflated tires can also affect the car’s steering, braking and stability control. Many cars now have tire pressure monitoring systems, which continuously measure each tire’s pressure electronically and flash a warning if one gets too low. However, these are primarily for safety and only notify you when a tire is 25 per cent below its recommended level. You could still be wasting fuel due to a tire that’s low on air but not enough to trigger the warning. Tire pressure should be checked once a month, Mastracchio says, and before leaving on long trips, when carrying heavy loads, or when towing a trailer. Tire gauges are inexpensive and can help save you considerably on your fuel bills. The recommended pressure varies by vehicle and

tire. It’s found in the owner’s manual or on a sticker found in the driver’s door jamb, on the glovebox door, or inside the fuel filler door. Don’t go by the number molded into the tire, which is the maximum it can hold. To check it, remove the small cap on the tire’s valve stem, press the gauge firmly onto it, and then check the number on the gauge. Add air at a service station if the tire is low. Gauge accuracy can sometimes be problematic, Mastracchio says, especially if the gauge is old or has been dropped. “Have one that you use as a reference, and another that you use to check the pressure,” he says. “This way, you will always know where you stand with your pressure.”

A solid car with an outstanding warranty SECOND GEAR

2004 to 2010 Mitsubishi Galant

JUSTIN PRITCHARD DRIVE@METRONEWS.CA

Mitsubishi’s shot at family sedans like the Honda Accord, Chevrolet Malibu and Toyota Camry was called the Galant. The latest generation of this machine was available during model years 2004 to 2010 inclusive, though it’s now been discontinued. All models were frontdrive sedans. Look for features like leather seating, premium audio with MP3 compatibility and an auxiliary input jack, air conditioning, cruise control, heated mirrors, remote access and a sixway adjustable driver’s seat.

A “scan” by a Mitsubishi trained technician can reveal any sensor or computer-related issues, including problems with emission control sensors and oxygen sensors, which could be pricey to replace. Note that a rattling sound from under the hood or under the car could be caused by a loose heat shield, and that a scraping or “rattling” sound in the steering column could be caused by a loose part of the turn-signal cancel mechanism.

Verdict Engine Galant offered up both a 2.4-litre fourcylinder or a 3.8-litre V-6 with 160 or 230 horsepower, respectively. Later in the Galant’s life, a sporty Ralliart version was offered with a 258-hp version of the V-6.
