Now that news of Irving’s successful shipbuilding bid has sunk in, municipal decision makers are turning their attention to how Halifax will accommodate the coming influx of workers. Mayor Peter Kelly said Thursday issues like transportation and housing were already on the backburner before Irving secured the $25-billion contract, which is projected to bring 11,500 jobs to the province during peak production in 2020. “We know the issue of transportation, getting people on and off the peninsula and in and out of the shipyard, is an area for discussion,� Kelly said. The mayor said the north end in Halifax and Dartmouth should see special attention from developers, with employees wanting to live close to the yard on Barrington Street.
“When you’re bringing in 10,000 more workers to a site, how are they going to get there? What does that look like in terms of movement of transportation?� MAYOR PETER KELLY
“It’s about a two-year buildup until they start cutting steel, so as they start to ramp up I think you’ll see others in the development community ramping up as well,� Kelly said. “It also gives us time to look at what other realignments we may have to take into account.� Downtown Business Commis-
sion executive director Paul MacKinnon said the municipality will face the same type of problems it currently has — just on a larger scale. “Long commuting times, a shortage of affordable housing on the peninsula.... There actually is a lot of under-utilized or poorly utilized land on the peninsula,� he said. “You take the Cogswell Interchange alone, (and) it’s about 16 acres of land.� MacKinnon said he’d like to see some of the tax revenue generated from the massive project reinvested in aging infrastructure in both the downtown and across HRM. And governments should have the means to do that, according to Saint Mary’s University economist Dr. Ellen Farrell. “These high-end manufacturing jobs have some of the largest multiplier effects of anything,� Farrell said. “The dollars keep repeating.� More on the ship contract {page 3}

New Democrats mum on ad-campaign criticism Ships Start Here cost balloons by $1.3 million from August to October Ad campaign more about politics than shipbuilding bid: Kevin Lacey RYAN TAPLIN/METRO
ALEX BOUTILIER
@METRONEWS.CA
The provincial NDP is refusing to give further comment on the decision to commit $620,000 in public money on a joint advertising campaign with Irving Shipbuilding. It was revealed on Wednesday that the cost of the ubiquitous Ships Start Here advertising campaign had grown to $1.4 million. That’s $1.3 million more than the original cost estimate provided by the NDP in August. Irving Shipbuilding contributed $552,000 to the campaign, while “Ships Start Here Partners,� including the Halifax Regional Municipality and the Greater Halifax Partnership, contributed $86,000. Media partners contributed $175,000 in free advertising space. But it’s not clear whom the advertisements were directed to. The federal government put the National Shipbuilding Procurement Strategy Secretariat in place to keep politics and lobbying out of the awarding of $35 billion in shipbuilding contracts. “This was intended for the government to show it was doing something to try and win the bid,� said Kevin Lacey, Atlantic Director of the Canadian Tax-

Winning contract good news for NDP The provincial NDP should reap some benefits from marrying their name to the Irvings’ successful bid on a $25-billion shipbuilding contract, according to political scientist Dr. Jeff MacLeod. MacLeod said the province’s combined PR blitz with Irving Shipbuilding should translate into a bump in electoral support. “The Ships Start Here campaign was really aimed at convincing people in Nova Scotia that something was being done about this,� said MacLeod, who teaches at Mount Saint Vincent University. “It certainly appears ... the premier and his government have been able to link themselves to this project and this success. And if that’s the case, I can’t imagine how that’s anything but positive, politically.� Still, MacLeod said it’s interesting that the New Democrats could translate the biggest military contract in Canadian history to increased support. “When you consider the historical antecedent of the NDP itself, and its position on defence spending and world peace, and what the party writ large has done has really downplayed these issues,� said MacLeod. “But that’s all been abandoned by this provincial government, in the quest for an economic boon.�

A record rainfall washed out roads and caused flooding in Halifax on Thursday. Afternoon rush hour was madness as the Bedford Highway near Mount Saint Vincent University was closed by police for several hours yesterday afternoon due to flooding. A small lake pooled on Barrington Street across from Young Avenue where an overflowing manhole gushed out water. Hammonds Plains Road at Bluewater Road was also washed out. Several cars tried to get through but stalled out. Police also received several reports of manhole covers coming off because of flooding. James Campbell,

If you’re emotionally attached to your Tim Hortons cup, don’t worry. You’ll see it again — as a take-out tray. On Thursday the Canadian coffee institution announced its plan for dealing with the mounds of paper cups and diverting them from the landfill. Some municipalities can recycle or compost the cups, but in many areas — like HRM — they go in the garbage. Tim Hortons and Scotia Recycling worked out a program two years ago to collect the cups and ship them to Hantsport-based paper manufacturer CKF Inc. to make them into trays. The program is now phased in all of the

province’s 156 restaurants. Four-stream recycling units in the restaurants collect the cups, but it’s up to the customers to put the cups in the right spot. “For our cups to be diverted from landfills for recycling, the paper-waste products ... must be free from plastics and organics. That means the program depends on the waste being properly separated,� said Greg Smith, Tim Hortons’ senior manager for regional marketing. Customers for the most part are sorting the cups and other paper products properly and the amount of cups rolling in is increasing, Smith said. When asked by reporters, Smith wouldn’t say how much the company has invested in this recycling program.

Thursday’s donation isn’t the first time Rowe has supported the business school.

Supreme Court to consider contract killing case A Crown appeal against a Nova Scotia woman who was acquitted of trying to have her husband killed will go before the Supreme Court of Canada. Nicole Ryan said she tried to hire a hit man to kill her husband in 2008 because she was desperate after years of his abuse and death threats against her and her daughter. The hit man turned out to be an undercover Mountie. Ryan’s lawyer successfully argued she was acting under duress because she was the victim of prolonged abuse and death threats. She said she believed he would carry though on those threats and that police would not be able to stop him. The trial judge accepted her defence and acquitted her. The Nova Scotia Court of Appeal also dismissed the Crown’s appeal of the case. Crown attorney William Delaney argued at the appeal that the duress de-

He said he was pleased the Supreme Court will hear the case. “Our main point is simply that duress didn’t apply,” he said in Halifax. “This case for the first time applied duress where there are only two people involved.” The Crown also argued that even if the argument did apply, Ryan’s claim she was under duress lacked an air of reality.

Anyone with information on Amber Kirwan’s whereabouts is asked to contact police The search for missing Pictou County teen Amber Kirwan continued Thursday with RCMP divers returning the Big Gut bridge area in Pictou Landing. The search for Kirwan, 19, began after she went
missing Oct. 9. She has not been seen since. Const. Ken MacDonald said the RCMP Underwater Search and Recovery Team would be working at the bridge all day. “It’s a big body of water,”
he said. It’s not known how long the divers will take to complete the search of the area. Kirwan disappeared from downtown New Glasgow. She was out with friends that evening and
left Doolys around 1:30 a.m. and walked toward Big Al’s convenience store to meet her boyfriend Mason Campbell. Campbell said when he and a friend arrived a short time later, she was nowhere
to be found. MacDonald said the public is asked to report any suspicious activity that may have taken place throughout Pictou County on the morning of Oct. 9.

Lawyer asks for police chief’s reinstatement Amby Heighton should be reinstated as Stellarton police chief, his defence attorney stated in his closing arguments Thursday. David Bright instead suggested that fining Heighton 10 days’ pay, ordering him to be assessed for counselling and giving him an official reprimand on his record was an appropriate penalty for writing a letter containing
allegations about RCMP officers and sending it to the Department of Justice. He suggested other options could include reducing Heighton’s rank or reinstating him as chief for a limited period. The hearing is looking at whether the Town of Stellarton was justified in firing Heighton as police chief in 2008. NEW GLASGOW NEWS

He also told the committee that proceeding with the Muskrat Falls project in Labrador wasn’t a matter of rejecting Quebec, saying the deal “was the simplest arrangement we could do that could get done and could make a huge difference to the Nova Scotia circumstance.” Some critics of Muskrat Falls say Nova Scotia could buy power from Quebec that’s cheaper than the cost of moving ahead with the massive project. But Huskilson said the costs would be similar because of the amount of work required to upgrade transmission capacity, though he didn’t provide specific cost estimates. THE CANADIAN PRESS

BY THE NUMBERS RICK EMBERLEY
HALIFAX@METRONEWS.CA
One of the major phenomena since the 1970s is the apparent mobility of our workforce. Haligonians were inclined to move across the country or around the world. And, maybe more importantly, we were switching jobs on a regular basis. Has the recent economic turmoil impacted our career choices in HRM? Our research seems to suggest it has. When asked in 2008, “Do you expect to be with your same employer in two years?” almost 70 per cent of HRM residents said no. Three years later that number has dropped to 55 per cent. Some of our other workplace habits and attitudes are also shifting. In the same three-year period the percentage of us working a 40-plus-hour week has risen from 54 to 61 per cent. There may be also some sense of reality setting in during the current econom-
On call Almost 50 per cent of us said we regularly accept business calls on cellphones after normal work hours. And 53 per cent check their email after work hours. Almost 25 per cent of those surveyed reported they received and returned business calls while on vacation.
ic circumstance, with 47 per cent of HRM residents satisfied with their income, a jump of five points. The satisfaction with things such as benefits, vacation and sick time have shown a similar improvement. Only contentment with pension plans has eroded over the period, but it’s a slight drop. The questions remain whether some of these apparent shifts in the workplace are simply a result of the recent recession and the slow — and, for some, painful — recovery or whether it’s an early indicator of a real change in people’s workplace habits, attitudes and behaviours.

One of the biggest flamenco festivals in Canada will bring an authentic Spanish feel to Halifax starting on Saturday. The sixth annual Fall for Flamenco festival stars dancer Miguel Tellez, singer Maria Mezcle and guitarist Jose Vega — all from Spain — as well as local talent The nine-day festival will also include a flamenco guitar concert, a dance theatre production, dance workshops, master classes and free library concerts.
This year the highlight of the festival will be De España con Amor (From Spain with Love), a dance theatre production at the Rebecca Cohn Auditorium, said Maria Osende, artistic director of Atlantic Flamenco Productions. “We have dance sections, and music sections and film sections,” she said, of the show. “There’s going to be a story of unrequited love going on — I think it’s going to be quite amazing.” Osende and her team created and produced the show in Halifax. “We’ve never produced a show for the festival,”
she said. “This is the first time that a production of this calibre is being done in Halifax.” Afterwards, Osende and the cast are taking the production on the road. They are going to Ottawa for the first-ever flamenco festival and will be performing at the Canadian Museum of Civilization. “I though this was a dream come true,” Osende said while reminiscing about the first flamenco festival she put on during an interview at Halifax Dance. That first one came back in 2006.

A Montreal family couldn't bear the “treachery” of their three teenaged daughters having boyfriends, so they drowned them and the father's first wife, pushing a car into a canal and making the scene look like an accident, court heard Thursday. Days after the bodies were found the father was recorded saying, “There is nothing more valuable than our honour.” Tooba Mohammad Yahya, 41, her husband Mohammad Shafia, 58, and their son, Hamed Mohammad Shafia, 20, are each charged with four counts of first-degree murder.

PM slams NDP over shipbuilding division New Democrats opened fire on the Harper government's multibillion-dollar shipbuilding plan Thursday, but the attack exposed divisions within the party that the Conservatives were happy to exploit. The fallout from the deci-
sion also spread from Ottawa to Quebec City, where the Charest government faced accusations of being ineffective. Interim Opposition leader Nycole Turmel accused the government of “picking winners and los-
ers” by awarding $33 billion in contracts to shipyards on the East and West coasts, leaving Quebec's financially-troubled Davie Shipyard out in the cold. “It is the duty of the government to implement a Pan-Canadian strategy to
develop the shipbuilding industry,” said Turmel, who favoured the work being divided among the three yards. Under the multi-decade plan, announced Wednesday after months of consultation, Irving Shipbuilding
of Halifax was awarded the right to exclusively bid on $25 billion in naval warship contracts. Seaspan Marine of North Vancouver was similarly given the strategic partnership for about $8 billion in federal civilian ship con-
tracts. Prime Minister Stephen Harper pointed out New Democrat MPs, such as Nova Scotia's Peter Stoffer, are in favour of the plan and he urged the Opposition to be more coherent. THE CANADIAN PRESS

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

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.
There is uncertainty how exactly Gadhafi died. An alleged eyewitness said that he saw the Colonel being shot in the abdomen. Grisly mobile phone video footage appears to show a bloodied Gadhafi being roughly handled. Other footage exclusive to Al Jazeera shows Gadhafi’s shirtless body on the ground.

Harper hails end of Libyan 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 charac-
“Gadhafi’s days are over. Never again will he be in a position to support terrorism or to turn guns on his own citizens.” PRIME MINISTER STEPHEN HARPER

Is it just me, or does the world get weirder by the week? Consider the following evidence, as we assemble this week’s zeitgeist, item by item:
WEEKEND, OCTOBER 21-23, 2011
Can money buy happiness?
77%
NO, MO MONEY MO PROBLEMS
23%
YES, I’M HAPPIEST WHEN I CAN BUY WHAT I WANT
1
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.
2
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?
3
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!
4
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.
5
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.
6 7
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.

Worth Mentioning Doctors sometimes call the anesthesia drug by its nickname — milk of amnesia. Patients are calling it the “Michael Jackson drug.” Ever since propofol was blamed in the singer’s death, patients who seldom asked or cared about what kind of sedation they were getting are suddenly peppering their doctors with questions about the potent drug. “You won’t believe how many people ... ask me: ‘Are you going to give me the Michael Jackson drug?’” said Dr. H.A. Tillmann Hein, president of the Texas Society of Anesthesiologists. While some initially balk at going under, fearing they will end up like Jackson, they come around after Hein explains that propofol, widely used for surgeries and other procedures for more than 20 years, is safe when used by a trained professional. Propofol gained notoriety in 2009 after an autopsy found Jackson died of an overdose. Prosecutors have accused his personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, of giving the 50-year-old pop icon a lethal dose at the singer’s rented Los Angeles mansion. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

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.

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.

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 toward the press.

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?

RICHARD CROUSE & MARK BRESLIN SCENE@METRONEWS.CA
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?

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.

Genre: Drama Director: Donald Shebib Stars: Doug McGrath, Kathleen Robertson, Anthony Lemke 811
It would be easy enough to dismiss Don Shebib’s sequel to his landmark 1970 Canadian New Wave classic Goin’ Down the Road as hogwash. With most of its original living cast intact, this belated followup sees Pete (Doug McGrath), now a retired postie in Vancouver, charged with ushering the ashes of his old pal Joey (played in the original by
the late Paul Bradley) all the way to the East Coast in the same battered car they put miles on in the first film. If you think driving a 50-year-old heap across the country without hiccup is implausible, wait until you see the many maudlin plot twists that rise up along the route. No matter, Road works, mainly because Shebib is honest and heartfelt about giving his heroes, living and dead, some closure. It’s a film that might make the cynic in you cringe, while the sentimentalist in you wipes away tears. CHRIS ALEXANDER

Clooney ponders politics Actor brings Hollywood glamour and Ides of March, which he directed, to London Film Fest Claims politics more cutthroat than Hollywood where you get to be in a film,” Clooney said. “You’re very privileged, and you understand that it’s not just your brilliance that got you there, that you’re standing on the shoulders of a lot of happy accidents along the way.” Clooney directed, cowrote, produced and stars in the tale of a Democratic presidential contender, with Ryan Gosling as an idealistic aide swept up in a sex scandal in the final days of a closely fought primary campaign. The film also stars Philip Seymour Hoffman and Paul Giamatti as rival campaign managers,
and Evan Rachel Wood as an ambitious intern. Clooney said the movie, adapted from a play by Beau Willimon, is “a pretty cynical look at politics.” He has said he held off filming it amid the wave of optimism that accompanied the 2008 election of President Barack Obama. Three years later, amid political

Director Roland Emmerich takes on the literary establishment with his new film that questions whether Shakespeare really wrote all those plays NED EHRBAR
SCENE@METRONEWS.CA METRO WORLD NEWS IN HOLLYWOOD
While he was busy making millions with disaster films like Independence Day, the Day After Tomorrow and 2012, German director Roland Emmerich secretly had a completely different kind of film in mind — a film about the true authorship of Shakespeare’s plays. And while he does manage to sneak an explosion or two into Elizabethan London, Anonymous is indeed a completely different film than what he’s made before, and he always knew bringing it to

I side with the artists and writers. I side with Mark Ryland, Derek Jacobi, Walt Whitman, Henry James, Sigmund Freud, Charlie Chaplin, Orson Welles — all these people believed that the man from Stratford didn’t write it.

On CBS’ The Mentalist, Simon Baker’s character has things all figured out. He’s able to read people, surroundings and situations so well that he can solve crimes. In real life, Baker, along with most people, was unable to anticipate or make sense of the financial crisis that hit the U.S. in 2008. His latest film, the financial drama Margin Call, focuses on a 24-hour window on the eve of the collapse. He plays a banker fighting to keep control. The movie also stars Kevin Spacey, Jeremy Irons and Demi Moore. The Australian actor says he remembers the general confusion felt by the public during that time. “It was all over the news and in the papers. ... It was so hard to see people in the position of making those decisions. It was such a grey area, certainly for me. How do they make these decisions? Who’s there in the room? Yesterday it was fine and today it’s all a mess.” The timing of Margin Call coincides with a monthlong protest called Occupy Wall Street in New York City against financial corruption. The protests have spread to cities around the world. “We’re learning sort of every day globally the economy has been so rattled that we aren’t over it and it doesn’t look like we are going to be over it and I think it’s good people are taking a stand...” Margin Call opens in theatres Friday.

George Clooney says Hollywood can be a ruthless place — but it’s nothing compared to the world of politics. The star, who plays a U.S. presidential hopeful in The Ides of March, said yesterday that “there’s a certain cutthroat element to the business” of moviemaking, but added that actors share a spirit of generosity that he doesn’t often see in politics. Most performers “are pretty kind to one another,” Clooney told reporters ahead of a gala screening of the movie at the London Film Festival. “Because you’re so lucky if you get to the position

want to see them, but films are so expensive, you have to show them to people. Lots of people! And that’s always nerve-wracking for me because I’m just afraid that they’ll throw tomatoes at me or something. It’s not your usual subject matter.
Yeah, it was very risky to make, because boy if I would f--- that one up, then people would say, “Oh, my God. Do we need that?” But I think we did a pretty good job, so hopefully the people will not say that. But it was just a pleasure to work with
these incredible actors. I had on this film the freedom to cast whoever I wanted, and because of that it was really a joy to do it. Also, it was the first movie I did in Germany in 20 years. I chose Germany because I felt most at home there and I know a lot of people there and I have a great group, which could be all Germans because I speak German. How did the mostly English cast feel about that?
They thought we were kind of like Hobbits who speak in their secret language, you know?

Canada is a land of pioneering, spirited and determined citizens; we are world class artists, scientists, doctors, statesmen, activists, writers, entrepreneurs, philanthropists and, of course, comedians. Extraordinary Canadians shape our national identity and international reputation as a humane, peaceful nation of progressive thinkers. Producer Kenneth Hirsch celebrates that ideal in a Citytv series, based

NEW MUSIC WILL ONLY GO SO FAR SOUND CHECK
ALAN CROSS SCENE @METRONEWS.CA
I’m working my way through Retromania by Simon Reynolds, a book that explores why we seem so fascinated with fetishizing music of the recent past.
R
etro 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, we’ve never been this obsessed with our own immediate past. Retro isn’t some antiquarian pursuit. We’re nostalgic for things within recent living memory. We still worship the music of the ’60s. Lately, it’s been all about celebrating the grunge era of the ’90s with reunions (Soundgarden), documentaries (Pearl Jam) and commemorative CD reissues (Nirvana, U2).
Meanwhile, current acts have become very successful by recycling the past. I love the White Stripes, but hasn’t Jack White just put a fresher garage-rock spin on the blues? The Strokes, Franz Ferdinand and Interpol are New Wave and postpunk with new coats of paint. And while Adele, Amy and Duffy have made brilliant records, they sound like something transported ahead from 1966. And think about this: give me a single new sound/genre that will endure beyond the first years of the 21st century? A big part of why we keep recycling the music of the old innovators is because of technology. With the Internet, it’s never been easier to access the past. And because so much of our immediate musical past has been preserved through YouTube, iTunes and millions of fan websites, it’s easier to mine it for ideas and influences. But what happens when we run out of the past? Or has as this music been around long enough that it’s become an artifact and can now only feed on itself ? These are all extremely big questions. Something to think about the next time you hear about the next big reunion tour. ALAN IS THE HOST OF THE RADIO SHOW THE SECRET HISTORY OF ROCK. REACH HIM AT ALAN@ALANCROSS.CA

Singer Peter Wolf is a natural-born story teller.
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.” So does this mean that a Wolf memoir is forthcoming?
“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.” You might have to wait before coming across a memoir, but in his live performance tonight he will share quite a few stories. Highlights 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. was very neat and meticulous. I was sort of the bohemian mess.”

Twilight star takes big bite out of gay rumours in media
ALL PHOTOS GETTY IMAGES
Lutz takes gossip mill in stride
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.” METRO

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 youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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 Campariâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;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, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an appetite enhancing refresher. Thanks to its bright orange colour, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also an appropriate tipple for the fall season. PRICES REFLECT THE

Young Herd face big challenge RYAN TAPLIN/METRO FILE
Halifax hopes to keep winning streak alive on weekend Sea Dogs visit Metro Centre on Friday, Remparts on Saturday, at 7 p.m. MATTHEW WUEST
@METRONEWS.CA
If the Halifax Mooseheads are for real, this weekend will be a good time to prove it. The Mooseheads (8-4) have won five straight games â&#x20AC;&#x201D; their longest string of success in almost four full years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but none of the teams theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve faced are on par with those visiting the Metro Centre this weekend: the Saint John Sea Dogs and the Quebec Remparts. The Sea Dogs (9-5) are the defending Memorial Cup champions and the Remparts (8-2-2) are considered a top contender. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Those are two of the top teams in the whole league,â&#x20AC;? said rookie centre Nathan MacKinnon, the Mooseheadsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; leading scorer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gonna be ready for them, I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re neck and neck with all those top teams, and I think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll do well against them.â&#x20AC;? Added veteran rightwinger Travis Randell: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be our measuring stick to see where we stand.â&#x20AC;?

the Mooseheads have climbed to third in the QMJHL in goals per game. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also had their share of lapses that might cost them against better teams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we have a second-period collapse, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a team that can turn around at the snap of a finger and score,â&#x20AC;? Randell admitted. The Mooseheads learned that last season. The Sea Dogs dominated them, scoring 43 times and winning all eight head-to-head matchups. The Remparts also swept last seasonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s twogame series. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a golden opportunity for the young team to show how far it has come from those days and start forming its new identity. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re two of the most prestigious teams in the whole league, so first of all it would be cool to beat them and also itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be a really good confidence booster,â&#x20AC;? MacKinnon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we get a couple of wins there, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be awesome.â&#x20AC;?

Rangers head home even in World Series Pinch-hitter Craig puts Cardinals ahead again late, but Texas manufactures win in ninth inning of Game 2 MATT SLOCUM/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
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.
