Drumheller guards working scared

Winning. Goal

Union boss said he sees the same fear among guards at minimum-security prisons across Canada DARREN KRAUSE

Institution morale

@METRONEWS.CA

Prison guards in Drumheller are on edge, with some fearing for their lives, in the aftermath of one of their own being assaulted Tuesday. Information provided to Metro through a confidential source at the Drumheller Institution, claims a string of recent incidents have some of the guards worrying about their safety and questioning whether significant changes need to be made to ensure protection of staff. Earlier this week, a female guard was allegedly assaulted, choked with a seatbelt and tied up and left on the side of a highway near Drumheller at the hands of a convicted murderer claiming he was sick while on an escorted leave of absence. While an internal investigation is ongoing, the source indicated an ongoing two-fold concern at the prison: single, unarmed

Frustration. UCCO boss Kevin Grabowsky describes officersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; morale at Drumheller Institution as discouraged, strained, upset and frustrated. Held hostage. In March, William Bicknell allegedly fled from a Drumheller Institution escorted leave and held an elderly woman hostage near Sexsmith, Alta.

Kevin Grabowsky, Prairies boss for the Union of Canadian Correctional Officers of Canada (UCCO), said this peril experienced by the guard Tuesday is a danger of the job, but said the issue could be solved with two officer escorts and tightening up of the security

evaluations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re happy the service is going to be doing some reviews of inmates placed in minimum securities. We welcome that,â&#x20AC;? he said. Dawn Bancroft, of the Drumheller Institution, confirmed they are reviewing procedures in light of the recent incident, but said the escort followed all national guidelines. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we send ETAs (escorted temporary absences) out from here, they are sent out under the direction of the policy ... and the policies are generated nationally,â&#x20AC;? said Bancroft. Still, the source indicated â&#x20AC;&#x153;the greatest fear is losing one of those closest to me and being powerless to stop it,â&#x20AC;? while acknowledging the inherent dangers of the job. Grabowsky admitted a certain amount of fear â&#x20AC;&#x153;keeps you on your toes,â&#x20AC;? but said a fear for oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reasonable. Police are continuing their investigation into Tuesdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s incident.

Hanging by a thread

Crime reporting goes digital New computer available for use by the public slated to begin service early next month Future partnerships could see the terminals in shopping malls and grocery stores JEREMY NOLAIS

@METRONEWS.CA

Calgary police are tapping into digital convenience in a bid to boost crime reporting. A computer will be set up at the District 6 office early next month that is open for public use to report crimes like vandalism, theft under $5,000 and lost items. This will mark the first

step in an initiative that could someday see terminals solely intended for crime reporting available in popular public spaces likes malls and grocery stores, said acting Staff-Sgt. Asif Rashid. “We are trying to make this as conducive and easy as possible for people to report crime,” he said. “For those (who) are not fortunate enough to have computers at home, we can

certainly look at partnering with others to offer them another avenue.” Under-reporting of crime was a key concern in the Calgary Police Commission’s annual public survey released earlier this month. It found that only 58 per cent of respondents reported a crime committed against them — down from 74 per cent a year ago. “We want to hear from the public,” said commis-

sion chair Mike Shaikh. “We want them to report any crime, it doesn’t matter how petty it is. That’s why we are trying to make it easier for people.” Rashid will be evaluating feedback and usage rates for the first public computer in the months ahead and then explore possible expansion of the program to other district offices. A cost for the initiative is still being determined.

Easy as 1, 2, 3 Staff-Sgt. Asif Rashid said citizens with basic knowledge of computers should be able to file an online report to police within 5-10 minutes. Calgarians cannot use online crime reporting for more serious offences, such as break-and-enters and assaults.

THIEF SHOOTING

Farmer appeals shooting sentence A central Alberta farmer convicted of shooting a man trying to steal his all-terrain vehicle is appealing his sentence. Brian Knight, who is 41, is supposed to serve

90 days in jail for criminal negligence causing bodily harm. Knight, who is married with children, is to serve the time on weekends at the Red Deer Remand Centre. He hit Harold Groening with several pellets of light birdshot in March 2009. Groening was fleeing Knight’s property near Tees. Knight’s bid to appeal is to be heard in Calgary on Nov. 3.

Government set for brief sitting The off-again, on-again fall sitting of the Alberta legislature is still on — but as soon as it’s on, it will be off. Premier Alison Redford, in a news release Thursday, announced that the fall sitting of the legislature will resume as per the schedule on Monday to discuss the global economy. But on Tuesday, she said, they will take a month-long break and resume on Nov. 21. “We’ve got a lot of new ministers. They’ve got a lot of great ideas and we want to take the time that’s necessary to reflect

Wildrose party Leader Danielle Smith said it’s cruelly ironic that the premier will brief the legislature Monday on a looming economic meltdown, then announce the next day they need more time because they’re not ready to deal with it.

University of Calgary officials unveiled their new, state-of-the-art library Thursday, but it seems hundreds — if not thousands — of students aren’t ready to close the book on its predecessor. The $205-million Taylor Family Digital Library boasts technology that will aid students in virtually every field, said university President Elizabeth Cannon. “(It) has instantly become the most treasured building on our campus,” she said. But students like Sartaj Hundal and Nikolay Todorov beg to differ. They note that the original MacKimmie Library, which has twice as many floors and a great deal more study space, is closed to students. “It’s nice for research and everything . . . but it’s ridiculous when me and a friend have to walk around for an hour just to find a place to sit down and have

Hundal said some faculties have established their own Wi-Fi connections in other areas of the university because they can’t find a place to work at the library.

REHAB CENTRE

Ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; night at the Drop-In KATIE TURNER @METRONEWS.CA

It was all about relaxation and fun as the Calgary Drop-In and Rehab Centre held its first annual Womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pamper Night Thursday evening. Gift bags were handed out and hairdressers, stylists and makeup artists were in attendance. So were staff from community organizations like Bow Valley College and Calgary Self Help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to involve members of the community, helping other people in the community,â&#x20AC;? said Kelli Taylor, the event chairwoman. Taylor, a medical stu-

dent working at the student-run clinic at the Drop-In, said the goal was to provide some relief from the stresses of life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The clinic that we work at addresses some of the medical needs of people but we think that thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a broader definition of health,â&#x20AC;? said Taylor. The services that were provided to the women were based on feedback from the female clients at the Drop-In. Taylor said the event was open to other women in the community experiencing homelessness and not just clients at the DropIn.

The goal was to have 75 women attend the event with hopes of expanding the program next year.

speeding tickets and an endless stream of resentment from many of my friends and family in my home province of New Brunswick, where, for years, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been suffering somewhat from a brain drain of people who left the province after being educated to seek jobs elsewhere. (Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d earned a degree in Spanish, so they were probably happy to see me go.) Since moving six years ago, I try to make it home to Fredericton two or three times a year. I inevitably spend most of my time between lobster dinners defending my decision to live out West. How could I live somewhere so expensive? What else is there besides

oil and gas? How gross is Cowboys? (the bar, not the profession). This past week, I decided to head home and surprise my granny and mother for their respective birthdays. One night I went out with my old friends and, as always, I was prepared to defend my choice to live in Calgary. But, this time around, our conversation was distinctly different. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our changing political landscape or exploding arts scene, but for first time in years people in New Brunswick seemed to be excited about the place I now call home.

As I flew back into Calgary, I was left thinking about all the great things that Fredericton has to offer, too â&#x20AC;&#x201D; maybe even some things that our city could learn from.

After 10 puppies had to be euthanized, the Calgary Humane Society is urging pet owners to ensure their dogs are properly vaccinated. In the past two weeks, the society has seen an increase in the number of animals testing positive for Canine Parvo — a deadly puppy disease. Tammy Mazubert, department head of animal health at the society, said there could be a number of reasons for the spike in cases. ANTI-SMOKING

The former annual family pass for two adults and two children under 12 cost about $160, while the cost for the same-size family at the new centre ranges from $204 to $320, depending on which package is purchased. “When we were pricing this out, it was completely based on other Calgary attractions and it’s a completely fair system,” said Rehmani, adding parking is $5 at the new facility compared to $18 at the old location. Kawchuk said they would visit the new facility before deciding whether they’d like to purchase an annual pass. “I just think it’s become out of the reach for many, many families in this city.”

She says people could be left on the streets or pushed into sub-standard housing unless the program is renewed. THE CANADIAN PRESS

It was a day of music and original songs written by students as Connaught School celebrated its 100th anniversary on Thursday. “To go to a school so established will help me get the education I need to be the person that I want to be,” said Mustafa Saleh, a Grade 6 student. Saleh and his family moved to Calgary from Iraq in 2009 and he has been attending Connaught for two years. He was one of three student MCs at the festivities. The audience was treated to musical performances by students, including one piece written specially for Calgary Mayor Na-

Undead still a popular costume choice CANDICE WARD/FOR METRO

Adults can expect to spend between $80 to $130 for Halloween attire CANDICE WARD

CALGARY@METRONEWS.CA

Amanda Bailey, Chantelle Grayson and Loudya Fournier, from The Masque on Macleod Trail, show oﬀ some of this year’s hottest Halloween costumes on Wednesday.

Zombies will rule once again this Halloween. With a less-thanspectacular year at the movies, Calgary costume shops are seeing people be a little more creative with their costume choices this year, with people adding a zombie twist.

“You can zombie-fy anything,” said Margot Loveseth, owner of The Costume Shoppe on Blackfoot Trail. Loveseth said people are leaning a little more towards television characters as well this year. “Movies are often what generate the monster trends, but this year, that is not the case,” said

Loveseth. One movie has inspired a lot of people to shop at one costume shop this year. The Masque on Macleod Trail has a number of people come in looking to put together a Black Swan costume. “It is kind of neat that people are dressing up a little more elegant this year,”

said Cynthia Collens, owner of the Masque. She also said pirates are still popular among men and women. “I don’t think you will ever get rid of pirates,” said Collens. If you are looking to rent a costume this Halloween, both Collens and Loveseth recommend reserving your costumes early.

‘You can overcome obstacles’

Columbine-massacre survivor speaks to Alberta teens about accepting others 12 years later, witness to mass high school shooting spreading positive message SHELLEY WILLIAMSON

@METRONEWS.CA

Evan Todd has seen the worst that can happen when teens head down the wrong path.

On April 20, 1999, the sophomore at Columbine High School found himself at the mercy of two mass murderers. Dozens of fellow students weren’t as lucky in the 46-minute shooting rampage by Dylan Klebold, 17, and Eric Harris, 18, in their Littleton, Colo., high school. Both shooters and 13 others ended up dead. Twenty-four more, including Todd, were injured. “I was the first student shot in the library and the last one to speak to the murderers before they ended up killing themselves,” said Todd, now 27. He appreciates that the

horror he witnessed that day, which left four of his friends slain and others unable to walk, could have given him a negative outlook. “School life was forever different,” he said. “But we chose as a school to try and take a negative and make it a positive.” Now he speaks to teens, parents and teachers about the dangers of bullying and violence, and the importance of acknowledging potential victims. “I really encourage students to watch what they’re saying and doing,” said Todd, while in Fox Creek recently speaking to students.

Bolsa witness jailed A key witness who refused to testify in Calgary’s recent Bolsa murder trial has been sent to prison for over a year. The woman, identified as Jane Doe, refused a series of questions posed by both Crown and defence lawyers Oct. 5 during the first-degree murder trial for Michael Roberto and Nathan Zuccherato. Both men were found guilty on three counts of murder each Monday and have been sentenced to life

Shooting lands two in custody Two men are in custody following an overnight shooting Thursday in the Alberta community of Langdon. RCMP believe the incident was fuelled by alcohol and say it was only by sheer luck that no one was killed. The owner of a home near where the shooting occurred did suffer some injuries from metal debris, according to a release. Both he and a friend believed to have been at the home remained in custody Thursday afternoon. Firearms-related charges are pending. METRO

The Jane Doe wit15 ness in Calgary’s Bolsa murder trial will spend 15 months behind bars for refusing to testify. in prison without chance of parole for 25 years. On New Year’s Day 2009, gang member Sanjeev Mann, his associate Aaron Bendle and innocent bystander Keni Su’a were gunned down at the Bolsa restaurant. METRO

News in brief

Missing man tracked down SEARCH. Police are cred-

iting an observant citizen with helping track down a missing autistic man. Clifford Bennett, 52, left a southwest care facility sometime late Tuesday or early Wednesday. According to a release, a keen passerby spotted him at Northland Mall about 36 hours later. Police say Bennett is in good health, besides a few blisters suffered while walking through the night.

1. NTC fighters’ attack on Sirte Following a 90-minute battle Thursday morning, fighters said with the help of NATO airstrikes they had taken control of Sirte, ending a two-month siege and eliminating the last important holdout post for troops loyal to the deposed leader. Reports suggest that Gadhafi along with key loyalists tried to flee east toward Misrata as the last battle was ongoing.

The colonel’s convoy was reportedly ambushed, with Gadhafi managing to flee. The ousted leader was located some time later in a storm-water drainpipe. “Don’t shoot, don’t shoot!” — the apparent words of the colonel as he pleaded with NTC rebels for their mercy, according to fighter Mohammed Al Bibi.

Harper hails end of dictator Canada’s military mission in Libya is expected to end by early November following Thursday’s death of Moammar Gadhafi. The dictator’s demise marked the end of four decades of erratic and brutal rule that saw world leaders both engage and cast

out the leader of the oil-rich nation before he was finally driven from power by his own people. “The Libyan people can finally turn the page on 42 years of vicious oppression and continue their journey toward a better future,” Prime Minister Stephen

Harper said. But their actions in the final moments of Gadhafi’s life are now under scrutiny with observers concerned revolutionaries may have meted out the same kind of violent justice that characterized Gadhafi’s reign. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Biologist’s dance video on doctoral work wins international award as creative passion surfaces A Canadian scientist has won an international award for her PhD thesis – the dance remix of it anyway. Queen’s University biologist Emma Ware is one of four winners of Dance Your PhD, a unique and lighthearted annual contest that asks researchers to convert their doctoral thesis into a dance video. “I wasn’t expecting that, but it is exciting,” Ware said upon hearing the results Thursday. Her thesis, entitled A Study of Social Interactivity Using Pigeon Courtship, yielded a moody, blackand-white video that shows how responses from

Dominique Weibel, founding member of Jaccuzzi.ch, tells Metro about his latest stunt that includes teetering 150 metres above the Trient Gorge in Switzerland in a hot tub. What kind of antics did you get up to in the tub?

We were celebrating two birthdays, so we had a cake and one guy brought a guitar for some singalongs. It was morning so we also had breakfast: toast with Nutella chocolate spread. Did you feel a little edgy at times?

[Because] we were worked on the project for nine months, we were very focused. Overall, it took 2,500 hours of planning. It wasn't some crazy stunt we decided to do when we were out drinking the night before. We had a lot of training to get used to being suspended in the air. How long did it take for you to set up this stunt?

Unions keep services crippled on second day of general strike Anarchists run amok in Athens Greek lawmakers passed a deeply resented new austerity bill Thursday, caving in to the demands of international creditors in order to avoid a national bankruptcy, as a second day of riots left one protester dead and more than 100 people wounded. The austerity measures won 154-144 in the 300member parliament despite dissent from a prominent Socialist lawmaker who voted against a key article of the bill. The vote was expected to pave the way for a vital $11-billion US payout from creditors within weeks so Greece can stay solvent. Clouds of tear gas choked central Athens ahead of the vote as riot police intervened to separate rival demonstrators who fought for several hours with firebombs and stones outside parliament. A 53-year-old construction worker died of heart failure after attending a mass rally, while 74 protesters and 32 police officers were hospitalized with injuries, police and state hospital officials said. Police said they detained 79 people suspected of violent conduct. After initial hours of calm, the rioting erupted when hundreds of masked

What good is growth? Despite GDP gains, we’re working harder to stay afloat

Det. Rick Lee, right, poses for a photographer in Zuccotti Park in New York on Thursday. Lee is gaining Internet fame as the “Hipster Cop” for his unusual style.

Wall Street protesters look beyond traditional media to spread message The Wall Street protest against economic inequality has a chaotic and complicated relationship with media that has helped spread its message across the world from a small Manhattan park. Like the demonstrations themselves, Occupy Wall Street’s media operation has no clear leader or simple message. Some of its volunteers work to help reporters whose cameras and microphones dot Zuccotti Park, even as many protesters express an aversion to-

ward the press. The media volunteers have counted at least 500 outlets that have sent reporters to the park, including a New Zealand newspaper, a college newspaper from Texas and a documentary filmmaker from Australia. If asked, the volunteers work as “fixers” for reporters who want to interview specific types of people — for example, a student overloaded with college loan debts or a jobless middle-aged person, said Jeff Smith, a volunteer

who works in advertising. Julianne Pepitone, a reporter for CNNMoney.com, said that in the early days, media volunteers would often approach her in the park and ask if she needed any help. It struck her as a well-oiled machine. Still, it can get frustrating covering a leaderless movement. “When you speak to these people, they are very careful to say, ‘I don’t speak for the whole revolution. No one does,’” she said. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.

A generation of solid economic growth has meant little in the everyday lives of most Canadians, according to a new index of wellbeing. The finding is a yellow light for decision-makers that social unrest is just around the corner unless deep changes are made, warns Roy Romanow, the advisory board chairman of the University of Waterloo group that created the index. The index suggests the middle class, in particular, is eroding. “There are some very, very troubling signs,” Romanow said in an interview. “I think if we continue on this trajectory we’re going to have bigger and bigger disparities. You can never build a solid political, social and economic community with wide disparities.”

Shark-fin ban: Toronto city council votes Monday on a motion to ban the sale of shark fins and shark-fin soup. Did you know that 73 million sharks a year are killed for their fins and that some species have been reduced by 90 per cent? Save the sharks! Switch to tomato bisque!

Chinese toddler: A poor little two-year-old girl was run over — twice — by some jerks, and more than a dozen people walked around her as she lay screaming for nearly 10 minutes. It’s causing a lot of hand-wringing in China. Let’s just hope that when they stop wringing, they actually start helping people who need a hand.

Jungle book: The other unhappy story everyone’s talking about is the guy who let all his lions and tigers loose in Ohio and then killed himself. It turned into a bad day for the whole menagerie as state deputies turned into big-game hunters, and now most of the lions, tigers and, oh my, bears are dead. At last report, there was one lone monkey out there. My advice: don’t monkey around. Get out of Ohio.

Torture enablers are people too: George W. Bush comes to Metro Vancouver Friday, and the Occupy people want him arrested for war crimes. Hail (and rocks and rotten tomatoes) to the Chief. True blue: Steven Slater, the guy who escaped from his job as a Jet Blue flight attendant — literally — down the emergency chute, avoids hard time. But has to pay the airline back for damaging their chute: $831.25 bucks a month. And he thought life was tedious before. But then there’s the book tour to look forward to.

BieberWatch: Justin Bieber’s tour stops in Peru, the home of his doppelganger, Alejandro Avilez Kamp, the Peruvian Justin Bieber. Geez, there are two of them.

Local tweets

Moammar Gadhafi: It’s been a bad year for jihadists and despots: Mubarak, bin Laden and now the terrorist clown (or is that clown terrorist?) gets his.

Bicoastal bliss: The feds launch a lot of boats with $35 billion. Stephen Harper could get elected king this morning, at least in Vancouver and Halifax, where the ship-building industries are enjoying an instant revival. We’s the bys what build the boats. Buy Canadian, eh?

photo of the day Letter This city council is no better than any of the previous ones. It is more like a dictatorship! Who wants to have to pay for another bin? It is unacceptable that everyone has to have a compost bin. There should be a clause to opt out of this farce. Let those who like this idea opt for and pay for them. Why is this being thrust down our throats? Do I have to pay for this even if I compost for my garden and have nothing left over for the bin? Now, some may think it’s far-fetched, but has anyone thought of the possibility of someone in city hall getting kickbacks from the bin manufacturers? Don’t say it can’t happen here.... I have seen it happen more often than not. Just wondering aloud. Questions should be asked — nothing is sacrosanct. A.C. SAMUEL CALGARY

Just like that, a planet is born Astronomers have captured the first direct image of a planet being born. Adam Kraus, of the University of Hawaii’s Institute for Astronomy, said the planet is being formed out of dust and gas circling a two-millionyear-old star about 450 light years from Earth. The planet itself, based on scientific models of how planets form, is estimated to have started taking shape about 50,000 to 100,000 years ago. Called LkCa 15 b, it’s the youngest

scene Synopsis

The new film is a prequel to the first films and follows the template set by the first two movies. Set in the VHS era of 1988, recurring characters Katie and Kristi Rey are little girls living with their mother (Lauren Bittner) and her boyfriend (Christopher Nicholas Smith), a wedding video editor. When they start hearing strange sounds in their new house, he sets up video cameras to find out what’s keeping them up at night. Is the boyfriend obsessed or is the house possessed?

WEEKEND, OCTOBER 21-23, 2011

scene Scene in brief

Paranormal Activity’s recurring characters Katie and Kristi Rey are creepy little kids in this instalment of the franchise.

Horror hat trick Paranormal Activity franchise should be getting old, but the third instalment still offers plenty of scares Film a shining example of ‘found footage’ genre

Richard: Mark, I have to say, I’m a bit of a sucker for things that go bump in the night and even though the Paranormal Activity series should be a little long in the tooth by now, it still made me jump. Are you as big a fraidy cat as I am? Mark: I usually pop a Xanax before I see a horror film so I can better appreciate the movie for its technical merits. But I didn’t for this one. And yes, the movie did frighten me, but only in the last 15 minutes, which were terrific. I found it a bit too long getting going and had a bit too much dark humour to create that air of dread

right off the top. The first two installments of the franchise really creeped me out; this one is better made, but didn’t give me the punch until the end. RC: This one is 99 per cent anticipation, one per cent payoff, but the one per cent is pretty good. I think the low-fi feel of the movies — the picture really does look like home video most of the time — combined with really natural performances from unknown actors make the Paranormal Activity movies feel like real “found footage” movies. Most movies of the genre are a little too slick. These

aren’t. There’s no music, no stars and it feels like you’re watching something that could be real ... almost. MB: Yes, and that’s not easy. It takes real filmmaking talent to look this artless. One thing I love about the series, and this movie in particular, is how much of the plot takes place at the edges of the screen. You really have to pay attention to see what’s really happening in the frame. And the static takes almost feel like some European art film, although the technical innovation of the oscillator-cam in this film is inspired. I was also pleased

that the movie had a backstory and plot, although, cleverly, you don’t realize it until the movie is done. RC: This one is a prequel, featuring the recurring characters Katie and Kristi Rey as creepy little kids. Not sure what’s next though ... maybe Paranormal Activity in Outer Space? MB: Well, before the screening, we were warned that to prevent privacy, the theatre would be continuously scanned using night vision technology. Paranormal Activity 4, anyone?

Zooey Deschanel has double duty on Fox: The star of the new series New Girl also is performing at the World Series. Deschanel is from the indie pop duo She & Him. She’ll sing the national anthem at Game 4 of the Major League Baseball seven-game series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Texas Rangers. It airs Sunday on Fox. METRO

Johnny Depp describes his friendship with Hunter S. Thompson as a ‘love aﬀair.’

NED EHRBAR

SCENE@METRONEWS.CA METRO WORLD NEWS IN HOLLYWOOD

Johnny Depp has been working to bring Hunter S. Thompson’s the Rum Diary to the screen since shortly after the two of them discovered the manuscript for the book in Thompson’s attic. With the film finally hitting theatres, Depp shares with Metro, in his own words, some of his memories of his close friendship with the late author. Meeting Hunter for the ﬁrst time

IN THEATRES OCTOBER 28TH

It was around Christmas time of 1994. I was in Aspen, and this friend of mine said, ‘You should come to the Woody Creek Tavern. I’ll have Hunter come down if you want to meet him.’ Somewhere around midnight the front door opened and all I could see initially were sparks — just sparks shooting everywhere, and then people jumping for cover. You could hear this sort of muffled, ‘Out of my way, you bastards!’ The sea parted, and the sparks stopped and he arrived right in front of me, and then this southern gentleman came over and said, ‘My name’s Hunter, how do you do?’ And that was it. From that second on, if we were apart we

were on the phone constantly. It was a love affair, a major love affair that hung around until he made his exit.”

with Hunter — just me and him for five straight days. And so all the stuff you read about in Fear and Loathing with the grapefruits and saving the shrimp cocktails, all that stuff ? All true.

Keeping up with the King of Gonzo Journalism

“We shared the same sense of adventure. One of the things I’ll cherish all my life is that whenever Hunter felt the need to wander out and explore, he’d call me. He’d say, ‘Colonel’ — he used to call me Colonel, Col. Depp — ‘Colonel, I need you in Havana in a week.’ I was in the middle of a film in England. I said, ‘I think I could probably work it out, all right.’ And then you find yourself on a plane to Havana. These memories are seared onto my brain.” On the road with Hunter

We were on a book tour, and he wanted me to go on the road with him as his road manager and as his head of security. He would refer to me as Ray, his head of security. So he’d say, ‘I’d like you to meet Ray, my head of security.’ And they were like, ‘That’s Johnny Depp.’ And he’d go, ‘No! His name is Ray.’ And he just stayed with that. We ended up in San Francisco because his back went out on him on the tour. So I was essentially locked in a hotel room with him, in a suite

Learning of Hunter’s suicide

“I was here, in Los Angeles. If you knew Hunter — if you really spent time with him and you knew how he negotiated life and dictated the way he was going to live his life — you knew he wasn’t going to be the guy who just sort of slipped off the chair and went away. You knew it was going to be self-inflicted. I wasn’t particularly shocked, because you knew it would happen one day. But then you start cursing the bastard, thinking, Come on, man. One last phone call? Maybe some hideous practical joke before you do it? But he did actually ultimately have the best practical joke of all, because his last wish was to be blown out of a giant cannon in his back yard. Now, there are no giant cannons of that size. He wanted 150 feet of cannon, and then I found out that the Statue of Liberty was 151 feet tall, and I thought he’d really hate me if it were any smaller than the Statue of Liberty. So we changed the plans and we built it up to 153 feet tall. We broke the records then. The great joke is that we

Becoming Hunter The Rum Diary marks Depp’s second on-screen appearance as an alter ego of Hunter S. Thompson, after first taking on Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in 1998. But Depp wasn’t the first person to try to embody Thompson, and his predecessor had some advice, it turned out. “I think it was the first day of shooting on Fear and Loathing, and I had already sponged up so much of Hunter that I couldn’t help but be Hunter,” Depp says. “And I got this phone call, first day of shooting, from Bill Murray, who’d played him in Where the Buffalo Roam. And Bill says, ‘Johnny, I just want to warn you, you’ve got to be careful.’ I said, ‘About what?’ He said, ‘Well, you know the way you become as Hunter and the way you speak as Hunter, how you sort of learn how to think like him? It never goes away.’ And I was already in so deep, it was like, ‘OK! There’s nothing I can do about it now.’”

were all forced to focus on something else as opposed to focusing on the loss of a great, great friend. Now it was a question of how do we shoot the bastard into the stratosphere legally and get away with it?”

You can be excused for questioning the need to resurrect Rowan Atkinson’s James Bond spoof eight years after we all roundly ignored the original. The sequel still relies

on bad puns and sight gags to hold the attention of its audience (mostly pre-pubescent boys). But as far as movies with bad puns and sight gags go, this one is pretty good. Thank Atkinson for that, as he still has the ability to make this character loveable while mugging for the camera.

Genre: Action Director: Paul W.S. Anderson Stars: Logan Lerman, Milla Jovovich, Orlando Bloom 881⁄2

The first in what appears to be a planned franchise of films, this steampunkinfluenced take on Alexander Dumas’ enduring classic weaves a convoluted plot without

offering much in the way of resolution. What saves the film from total disaster is a crack-supporting cast led by Milla Jovovich and Christoph Walz who get equal screen time as the titular heroes. Hard to follow, the imaginative action scenes and playful support characters save this film from total disaster.

am working my way through Retromania by Simon Reynolds, a book that explores why we seem so fascinated with fetishizing music of the recent past.tro can be loosely defined as everything old is new again. Anything can be retro: fashion, art, advertising, movies, TV and, of course, music.

Reynolds points out that for the first time in human history, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never been this obsessed with our own immediate past. Retro isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t some antiquarian pursuit. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re nostalgic for things within recent living memory. We still worship the music of the 60s. The rock giants of the 70s â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Zeppelin, the Stones â&#x20AC;&#x201D; are as big as they ever were. Clubs still hold Retro 80s nights and acts like OMD and Spandau Ballet are on the road again. Lately, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been all about celebrating the grunge era of the 90s with reunions (Soundgarden), documentaries (Pearl Jam) and commemorative CD reissues (Nirvana, U2).

Three albums in and Metronomy, the electropop quartet based in Brighton, England, are only now getting name recognition in the U.S., Canada and in their native country. The second part is especially odd, because earlier this year they received a Mercury Prize nomination (the U.K. equivalent to a Grammy) for their latest album, The English Riviera. But frontman and Metronomy mastermind Joseph Mount is philosophical about the newfound fame. “Certainly with the English music press, you sometimes need to prove your

The wild life of singer Peter Wolf From rooming with filmmaker David Lynch as teens to having artist Norman Rockwell as a babysitter, Wolf’s life has had some fascinating twists and turns Musician says he might share his strange stories in a memoir PAT HEALY

SCENE@METRONEWS.CA METRO WORLD NEWS IN BOSTON

Any single one of Peter Wolf’s biographical details could make for an interesting book. The 65-year-old singer for the J. Geils Band and solo performer was college roommates with director David Lynch, as a child his father occasionally left him with Norman Rockwell as a babysitter, and acts that have opened for him include U2, Fleetwood Mac and Tom Petty. “What happens a lot of times is that it’s been in vogue for performers and musicians to write these books,” he says, “and people have been after me for the past decade to do one.”

Big, bad Wolf There was only one time that Peter Wolf can remember actually rehearsing a story. The singer heard people yelling out specifics from a story he had told to introduce the song, Must Of Got Lost after it appeared on a live album in the ‘70s. “I didn’t even know what people were yelling out when they were yelling out, ‘Raputa! Raputa!’ and people were getting into it and I had to sit in a hotel room and memorize it.”

So does this mean that a Wolf memoir is forthcoming? His answer is loaded with both possibility and trepidation. “It’s in there, and it’s got to come out, so I would imagine so,” he says, “But there’s very few books of that nature that I find worthwhile.” Surely he found Keith Richards’ autobiography a stimulating read? “Yeah, I helped Keith with that,” he says. So you might have to wait before even pre-ordering a copy of Freeze-Frame: The Picture Perfect Life of Peter Wolf (our title, not his). But in his live performance tonight he will be telling quite a few stories, mixed in with solo material and Geils fan favourites. “Sometimes when we’re backstage and the stories come out, they just end up onstage,” he says. Highlights on any given night might include tales of being chased down a back alley by Sly Stone, hanging out with Van Morrison, when the Irish singer called Cambridge home in the late ’60s, recording with Mick Jagger and Keith Richards, or living with David Lynch while at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts. “It was sort of like the odd couple,” says Wolf of his former roommate. “He was very neat and meticuGETTY IMAGES

lous. I was sort of the bohemian mess.” Keeping with this bo-

hemian mess tradition, Wolf says the stories he shares are very off-the-cuff.

“Some nights we’ll put in 18 songs or sometimes 16 songs, depending on if I

just rap on,” he says. “It’s all just very spontaneous.”

Twilight star takes big bite out of gay rumours in media

ALL PHOTOS GETTY IMAGES

Kellan Lutz says straight men generally make for bad housemates Twilight hunk Kellan Lutz doesn’t mind the gay rumors going around about him — and he insists he knows where they come from. “I don’t Google myself, but I’ve heard that people think I’m gay. I’ve heard it all,” he tells the Advocate. “See, I don’t really go after girls. Most of the girlfriends I’ve had have come after me. So it’s really funny when girls get offended because I don’t hit on them. They will transform their insecurity into, ‘Oh,

that makes sense, because I heard you’re into guys and have a boyfriend.’ I’m like, ‘Seriously? That’s your tactic to get me to like you?’ There will always be rumors, but I know who I am.” Lutz also claims that he’d rather live with gay men than straight men. “They’re the cleanest, and they just take care of stuff,” he explains. “Straight guys are just kids who don’t pick up after themselves.”

Hunky Kellan takes rumours about his love life in stride.

food Fall for this orange tipple PETER ROCKWELL LIQUIDASSETS@EASTLINK.CA

TWITTER: @THEREALWINEGUY

You have to love Europeans. Not only is wine part of their every day life, they have a ritual of pre-dinner drinks that makes booze a natural companion to their dining culture. They do it up best in Italy. Order a glass of the appealingly bitter Campari ($20.99 $27.49) and soda at any resto and you’ll get a nod from your waiter that suggests he knows you know how to drink Italian. One of my favourite Italian cities to imbibe in is Verona in the province of Veneto. It’s surrounded by the wine regions of Valpolicella, Bardolino and Soave, and the popular sparkling wine Prosecco is made nearby. The Veronese are crazy for The Spritz: A mix of two ounces of Campari’s little (and less bitter) brother Aperol ($21.99 - $25.98) with an equal part Prosecco and a dash of sparkling water. Served over ice in a large wine glass and garnished with a slice of orange, it’s an appetite enhancing refresher. Thanks to its bright orange colour, it’s also an appropriate tipple for the fall season. PRICES REFLECT THE

Quoted

New York Rangers’ Ryan McDonagh celebrates scoring the winning goal with teammates against the Calgary Flames on Thursday.

Rangers edge Flames Ryan McDonagh scores with seconds left in OT for a 3-2 victory “It was me, it’s all on me. I’m guilty. Absolutely.” JETS COACH REX RYAN, WHO HAS APOLOGIZED TO CHARGERS COACH NORV TURNER. RYAN SAID ON WEDNESDAY THAT “I WOULD HAVE HAD A COUPLE OF RINGS” IF SAN DIEGO HAD HIRED HIM AS COACH IN 2007. THE COMMENTS WERE TAKEN AS A SLIGHT AT TURNER, WHO HAS COACHED THE CHARGERS SINCE 2007 WITHOUT WINNING A TITLE.

New York defenceman Ryan McDonagh scored with two seconds remaining in overtime Thursday night, giving the Rangers a 3-2 victory over the Calgary Flames. With a crowd in front of goaltender Henrik Karlsson, Dan Girardi shot the puck wide off the end boards and it caromed out the other side where McDonagh was there to bury it in the open side for his second goal of the season. Marian Gaborik and former Flame Brandon Prust also scored for New York (2-1-2). The Rangers have won the first two games of their four-game road trip

FLAMES

through Western Canada. They play in Edmonton on Saturday night. Brad Richards had an assist and has now picked up a point in each of his first five games as a Ranger.

Jarome Iginla and Mark Giordano scored for Calgary (2-3-1). The Flames are 1-0-1 two games into their season-high six-game homestand. After a four-goal first period, both teams were blanked over the final 45 minutes with both teams taking turns in the spotlight. Flames coach Brent Sutter, staying true to his commitment to lessen Miikka Kiprusoff’s workload this season, went with Karlsson in net. This came on the heels of Kiprusoff’s superb 25save performance in Calgary’s 2-1 win over

Edmonton on Tuesday night. Karlsson gave up five goals on 35 shots in his first start, a 5-2 loss to St. Louis on Oct. 10. In his second start of the season, the six-foot-six Swede was much better, making 26 stops. Henrik Lundqvist, coming off a 40-shot shutout of Vancouver in his last start, made 33 saves for New York. His best stop came on a first-period rebound when he denied Tom Kostopolous the go-ahead goal, stretching across the crease to get his arm on the dangerous shot from the slot. THE CANADIAN PRESS

CARDINALS

Down to their last three outs, and in danger of dropping into a serious World Series deficit, the Texas Rangers rallied against St. Louis’ vaunted bullpen for a 2-1 victory Thursday night. Josh Hamilton and Michael Young hit sacrifice flies in the ninth inning to give Texas the win. For the second straight night, Cardinals pinch-hitter Allen Craig greeted reliever Alexi Ogando with a go-ahead single. This time, Craig did it in the seventh. In Game 1, his hit in the sixth sent the Cards to a 3-2 win. The Rangers, however, were not done quite yet. Now, after a travel day, they will host Game 3 on Saturday night. Matt Harrison is set to start for the Rangers against Kyle Lohse. The Cardinals’ Jaime Garcia and the Rangers’ Colby Lewis both pitched a two-hit ball through six innings, and Texas shortstop Elvis Andrus saved a run with an outstanding play. A night after Chris Carpenter led the Cardinals to a 3-2 win in the opener, Garcia retired his first nine batters and didn’t allow a ball out of the infield. Using a sharp breaking ball, he allowed just three runners in the first six innings. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Plenty upside in Stamps QB decision CFL EXTRA POINTS DAN TOTH

TORONTO@METRONEWS.CA

John Hufnagelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision to bench quarterback Henry Burris this week shocked the reigning CFL Most Outstanding Player, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the right move at the right time and almost every other coach wishes he had the luxury of such a tough choice. Stamps backup Drew Tate has given every indication, despite limited action, that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the real deal and ready to step into the starting role. If Hufnagelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hunch is right, Tate will be one of the top stories down the stretch and into the playoffs.

FRANK GUNN/THE CANADIAN PRESS

Fail, and Hufnagelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got one of the best QBs of this era fuming on the sidelines and waiting for a chance to redeem himself. What could be better? The ideal scenario for Calgary is if Tate lights it up when he gets his chance, making the 36year-old Burris and his salary in the $350,000 range expendable in the off-season. Burris would attract a handsome return in a trade (could any team need a QB more than Toronto?) allowing the Stamps to pad their Canadian talent with some Double Blue draft picks. The Argos, after wasting a year and a half with the Cleo Lemon experiment, are now saddled with career backup Steven Jyles, who has shown only brief glimpses of potential in his half-dozen games running the offence. Most outstanding finish:

Stampeders quarterback Henry Burris is sacked by the Argonauts last Friday in Toronto.

Has a quarterback ever won the Most Outstanding Player award after an 0-5 start to the season? It could happen after B.C. Lions pivot Travis Lu-

lay struggled early this year only to turn the season around with an eightgame winning streak and a guaranteed playoff berth. While Lulay floundered,

head coach Wally Buono appeared destined for the firing line. Fast forward two months and the Lions are fighting for first in the West and Wally is an obvi-

ous candidate for coach of the year honours. Saskatchewan riding Durant to the bitter end: Question a coachâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision about the starting quarterback and you usually get the patented answer, â&#x20AC;&#x153;He gives us the best chance to win.â&#x20AC;? That holds true for Saskatchewan Roughriders head coach Ken Miller, who is starting quarterback Darian Durant Friday night in Calgary. The game means nothing to the Riders, who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t earn a playoff spot this season. But why Durant? There are question marks about Durantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s abilities after a disappointing season, and the manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a broken bone in his foot. The Riders should be playing backups Ryan Dinwiddie and Cole Bergquist to choose a successor. Surely by now they know what Durant can do.

Today’s horoscope Aries March 21-April 20 There seems to be a lot of stress in your life at the moment and you need to find ways to handle it. Exhale. Taurus April 21-May 21 Take responsibility for your own thoughts and actions. Make sure everyone knows who you are. Gemini May 22-June 21 If you’re convinced co-workers would not betray you, then give them the power to make decisions. Cancer June 22-July 22 Push your luck a bit. You are exceedingly sharp mentally at the moment, so you’ll see trouble before it arrives.

Sagittarius Nov. 23-Dec. 21 Use your powers of persuasion

if you want to get something done.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 20 You’ll be in the mood to take a few risks today and there’s a good chance that some will pay off. Aquarius Jan. 21-Feb. 18 If you sit around waiting for other people to make the first move today, you won’t get much done. Pisces Feb. 19-March 20. For a change everyone seems to approve of what you are doing, which is nice. But don’t let their praise go to your head. SALLY BROMPTON
