Racist tweets target Caps’ playoffs hero Winning goal. Toronto-born Capitals winger scored in overtime to beat the Boston Bruins in Game 7 When the puck crossed the line, it was the greatest moment of Joel Ward’s career: a series-winning goal against last year’s Stanley Cup champions, by a player for whom nothing has come easy. But then vicious voices on Twitter tried to turn it into the worst. Soon after the Washington Capitals winger scored in overtime Wednesday night, beating the Boston Bruins 2-1, a flurry of racial slurs aimed at the black player appeared in the social-media arena, including the n-word and other profanity. “I was shocked,” said Ward, 31, on Thursday. “I knew

there’d be some angry fans probably, but it’s just sad to see.” Ward said he didn’t let the comments faze him. “That didn’t take away the moment that we had (Wednesday) night, which was taking down the defending champs.” One person who wasn’t surprised was Ward’s mother.
“All his life coming up, it was always some kind of racial remarks with him and hockey ... and he stuck it out,” said Cecilia Ward, a semi-retired nurse who immigrated to Scarborough from Barbados in 1964. She recalls players and their families drawing attention to the young black player on the ice, telling him to play basketball, and even a referee calling him a monkey. “He’s used to that,” she said. Both the Capitals and Bruins condemned the insults, and by Thursday, many of the racist Twitter comments had been taken down. Some remained. “I apologize for my last tweet dropping the ‘n-bomb’ and for anyone I may have offended,” said Twitter user Mike Spiewak, who goes by @Spee_Durr. “I’m not a racist — just the heat of the moment.” torstar news service

GO delay blamed on track glitch
Ian Merkley, 59, was sentenced to six days in jail on top of nine days already served for spitting on a TTC route supervisor. On the same day, a TTC streetcar driver was also spat upon by a man.
Commuters on several GO Transit lines faced major delays Thursday morning because of a glitch with the system that controls track signals. GO Transit spokesman Malon Edwards says the computer that regulates rail traffic went down.

Hit-and-run victim still searching for answers Recovering. Toronto teacher wonders ‘how you go from egging a person’s house to trying to kill them’ He didn’t get far, but Michael Stewart walked this week, the first time he’d put one foot in front of the other since that March night when everything changed. Six weeks ago, the teacher was struck by a minivan in a bizarre, midnight hit-and-run outside his Rexdale home. The impact crushed one of his vertebrae, leaving the 39-year-old physical education teacher without the use of his legs and forcing him to relearn how to walk. So on Tuesday, when he gripped a walker and took a few steps side to side, a symbolic, anticipated moment had arrived. A bittersweet one, too. “Happy, I was definitely happy,” said Stewart, speaking publicly about the incident for the first time Thursday from his room in Sunnybrook. “But also very frustrated, because I’ve been athletic my whole life and
having to learn how to walk again, trying to move my legs and have them not moving the way I expect them to, is very frustrating.” In the dead of night on March 14, Stewart was struck by a minivan whose driver, he and wife Trina Stewart say, deliberately hit him. Stewart had gone outside to investigate after an egg struck their front window. As Trina cleaned up the egg, he waited on the side of the road, watching to see if the van returned. The Stewarts say the same van came back, so Stewart stepped forward to get the licence number. The van came directly at him, swerved in his direction and jumped the curb. Police have gained ground in their attempt to find those responsible. Late last month, paint chips extracted from Michael’s clothing narrowed the search, revealing the van was a light brown or gold Dodge or Chrysler minivan made between 2000 and 2005. Tips have since poured in, but they have not led to the driver — something that’s “extremely important” to Stewart. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Support
As he and Trina are both quick to point out, good things have come from the bad. •

There’s been an outpouring of support from family, friends, coworkers and students. Friends had the couple’s roof — a problem before the accident — fixed at no cost. One of Stewart’s students has arranged free yard work throughout the summer.
•
“People are not just asking, ‘How can we help?’ They’re going ahead and doing it,” said Trina, a kindergarten teacher.
•
A fundraiser called Get Mike Walking has also been set up through Sunnybrook to help the Stewarts tackle extra costs, including changes that may need to be made to make their home accessible. Donations can be made by contacting TD Canada Trust.

Crown concludes its case against Rafferty The car allegedly used to abduct Victoria Stafford was an assortment of poorly installed or oddly fashioned modifications, and it was those unique features the Crown used Thursday to link to video of a car repeatedly driving past Tori’s school as the last evidence in its case. After eight weeks, 61 witnesses and 186 exhibits, the Crown concluded its case Thursday against Michael Rafferty. It will be in the defence’s hands on Tuesday. The last images Crown attorneys left the jury with were all the relevant surveillance footage collected, largely from April 8, 2009, the day Tori vanished outside her elementary
school in Woodstock, Ont. On that day, a car believed to be Rafferty’s is seen driving past Oliver Stephens Public School at 9:04 a.m. It is seen there again at 3:05 p.m. It is at a nearby gas station at 3:20 p.m., then drives by the school one last time at 3:30 p.m. A car believed to be the same one pulls into the parking lot of a retirement home up the street. Two minutes later, Rafferty’s girlfriend Terri-Lynne McClintic walks past the same spot with Tori. One minute later, a tiny image of a car believed to be Rafferty’s can be seen driving away from that area. The car alleged to be

Michael Rafferty, 31, has pleaded not guilty to firstdegree murder, sexual assault causing bodily harm and kidnapping in Stafford’s death. •
The trial, which began March 5, got off to an emotional start as Tori’s Grade 3 teacher Jennifer Griffin-Murrell wept
Rafferty’s arrives 1 1/2 hours later at a Home Depot parking lot in Guelph, Ont. A person wearing a white top gets out of the car and walks toward a neighbouring gas station.
while describing the “lovely” little girl’s last day at school, spent jumping in puddles and researching plants on a computer. •
Griffin-Murrell said Tori was inquisitive, well-liked and was “obsessed” with the TV show “Hannah Montana.”
Rafferty, wearing a white shirt, is captured on the gas station’s interior camera walking toward the ATM, and records show he withdrew $80. The person wearing white
returns to the car in question and it drives closer in the parking lot to the Home Depot. McClintic hops out of the passenger side of the car, goes into the store, purchases garbage bags and a hammer — the murder weapon — then returns to the car. The last shot is the car pulling out of the vast parking lot and heading toward the highway. The Crown alleges Rafferty then drove north to a rural area, where there were no more surveillance cameras to capture his movements, and it was in a secluded farmer’s field that Tori was raped and killed.

Naughty not nice enough for Queensway bylaws Kate Neale, right, who was diagnosed with a malignant melanoma after using tanning beds for five years, with Ontario NDP health critic France Gelinas at Queen’s Park on Thursday. Canadian Cancer Society Handout/THE CANADIAN PRESS
Tanning salons. Private member’s bill seeks ban for anyone under 18 As a child, Kate Neale always wore hats and high-SPF sunscreen to protect her ultra-fair skin from the rays of the sun. But at 16, wanting to emulate the bronze-skinned Hollywood stars with whom she’d become so enamoured, she started indoor tanning and quickly got hooked. “I was tanning three to four times a week,” said Neale of Belleville, who turned 22 on Thursday. “It made me feel better about myself, and people were always complimenting me, saying, ‘Oh you have such a nice tan’.” Once she started toasting her body under the ultraviolet lights of the tanning beds, as many of her friends did, “it quickly became an addiction for me.... People thought that tanning made them look skinnier. They actually call it ‘tanorexia’.” Five years later, what she thought was a freckle above her belly button was diagnosed as malignant melanoma, a potentially deadly skin cancer that is on the rise in Canada and elsewhere, especially among Yonge and Levendale
young women. On Thursday, Neale was among about 90 volunteers for the Canadian Cancer Society attending events at the Ontario legislature, where a private member’s bill was introduced calling for a ban on indoor tanning for anyone under 18. The proposed Skin Cancer Prevention act by Nickel Belt MPP France Gelinas, the NDP’s health critic, also seeks regulation of the industry. If passed, the bill would require indoor tanning salons to adhere to strict marketing and promotion practices aimed at young clients, including posted health warnings and training for staff who operate the equipment. “Tanning salons directly target youth through advertising in yearbooks and in schools before prom and graduation,” Gelinas said in a release. “Not only do the salons either not know or play down the lifelong consequences of excess exposure to UV rays, they make tanning accessible and attractive for young people.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Etobicoke sex shop. Owner says his store, which sells high-end goods mainly to women and couples, has a right to be there If a store sells condoms, is it just marketing family planning or is it selling a product “designed to appeal to erotic or sexual appetites … ?” If it’s the latter, and it’s in an area of Toronto, like along the Queensway about three kilometres east of Kipling, there could be trouble. Capital T, as in ticket trouble. A city zoning bylaw (5142003) prohibits the opening of an adult establishment on this stretch of the Queensway. And the city refers to the Municipal Act which defines such a business thus: “Any premises or part of them is an adult entertainment establishment if goods, entertainment or services that are designed to appeal to erotic or sexual appetites or inclinations are provided... ’’ Steve Bannister has some of that trouble now with his aptly named Aren’t We Naughty business at 1100 The Queensway.

face a charge of operating an adult entertainment establishment where it is prohibited. But Bannister believes the bylaw is “old and confusing … everyone from department stores to drugstores sell some of the same products we do.” He’s not aware of any drugstore in the area facing a similar notice of violation. His lawyer, Melissa Vanberkum, plans to ask the Ontario Court to adjourn the matter of the city ticket because she will be challenging the bylaw in Superior Court and believes it could be voided for vagueness. a term sometimes heard in court cases. Bannister had earlier lost an appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board, after he was turned down by the city when he asked for a minor variance to allow his business to open. He still went ahead and deliberately opened the business because he wanted to challenge the law. Torstar News Service

Guard charged with bringing drugs into jail A corrections officer has been charged with drug offences after police say a man attempted to smuggle alcohol and marijuana into a Toronto jail. The suspect was arrested Monday after a package containing alcohol, tobacco, lighters, rolling papers and marijuana was intercepted within the Toronto West Detention
Centre in Etobicoke. Police say the man was also found to possess Oxycontin tablets. “The allegation is he was bringing in drugs and other contraband for sale to the prison population,” Det. Sgt. Ray Fortin told the Star. Police suspect this activity was going on for some time. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Similar charges for corrections officers
• In 2005, a longtime corrections officer at the Toronto (Don) Jail was arrested after drugs and two straight razors were smuggled into the facility.
• In 2006, a jail guard was charged with accepting a bribe and conspiring to smuggle nearly $7,000 worth of marijuana into Hamilton-Wentworth Detention Centre.

Man who helped nail ex-Liberian leader ‘went on his own’ Blood diamonds. Cindor Reeves collected evidence against Charles Taylor in Sierra Leone —but since Canada denied him asylum he is nowhere to be found There was a time when the man who helped build the case against former Liberian president Charles Taylor worked at Canadian Tire. Cindor Reeves lived in the GTA for five years. He was forced to leave this past December after he was denied refugee status in Canada. Reeves wasn’t your typical suburban dad. He was Charles Taylor’s brother-in-law, and for years, he had been at the centre of Sierra Leone’s blood diamond trade. In earlier

interviews, Reeves said he was appalled by what he saw. He gathered documents about weapons purchases and diamond smuggling and turned them over to the UN-backed Special Court for Sierra Leone. On Thursday, that court convicted Taylor of aiding and abetting war crimes in Sierra
Leone, with charges that included terror, murder, rape and conscripting child soldiers. Reeves’ current whereabouts are unknown. Emails to his account were not answered, and the Canada Border Services Agency refused to confirm whether he had been deported, citing privacy legislation. His wife, Precious, still lives in the GTA and heard the news about Taylor on the radio this morning. She said she was relieved at the verdict. She confirmed that Reeves had left Canada, but declined to elaborate, fearing for the safety of their children. “He went on his own, that’s what I know so far,” she said. When he lived in the GTA, Reeves was often worried about his family’s safety. “I have been getting threatening emails and phone calls even here in Toronto,” he said in 2011. Torstar news service/with

OPA + IESO = ? Minister still fighting for ‘real’ name for energy merger Energy Minister Chris Bentley hasn’t abandoned the idea of having a “real name” for the merger of the Ontario Power Authority and the Independent Electricity System Operator after all. Bentley complained the energy sector is full of agencies known by acronyms like the OPA and IESO when he announced the planned merger of the two electricity planning agencies. The minister said at the
time he wanted the new agency to have a real name, but in legislation introduced Thursday, it is known as the Ontario Electricity System Operator, or OESO. However, a spokesman for Bentley says OESO is “a working title” in the legislation and the government will come up with an actual name as the merger progresses. The government hopes to save about $25 million a year by merging the two agencies. The Canadian Press

Harper to vote against Tory MP’s motion on abortion
Most-wanted
PMO misplaces historic documents
Accused war criminal living quietly in Quebec
The prime minister’s mail room has lost some historical documents on sports, music and politics — and they appear to have been accidentally shredded. The package of six documents, a gift, arrived in the facility last May. The envelop was datestamped as being received but was not tracked as required, and the material soon disappeared.
A man alleged to be one of the world’s most-wanted Nazi war criminals is living a quiet life keeping bees and selling honey in rural Quebec. Vladimir Katriuk’s name was recently added to the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s list of the world’s 10 most-wanted suspected former Nazis. Katriuk refused to discuss the allegations.

Complaints hearing
No talks if radical groups involved: Province
Sheila Fynes is telling a military complaints commission about her son, Cpl. Stuart Langridge, who killed himself in 2008 after returning from Afghanistan in 2005. Fynes says a boy who was once happy-go-lucky shut down after coming home.
The Quebec government rejects further talks with students because of a demand that members from a radical group be involved. The minister said there would be no talks with the C.L.A.S.S.E They say the group has not done enough to condemn violence.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper says he’ll vote against a motion introduced by one of his own MPs that has reignited the national abortion debate. The Opposition and prochoice advocates have criticized Harper for allowing debate on the motion. Harper called the abortion motion from MP Stephen Woodworth unfortunate. The motion would set up a committee of MPs to review the Criminal Code section which says a fetus does not become a human until birth is complete. the canadian press

International Co-operation Minister Bev Oda has agreed to repay almost $3,000 she charged taxpayers for limousine service while staying at a posh hotel in London. The beleaguered Conservative minister had already coughed up $1,353.81 in extra hotel charges after media reports that she upgraded to the five-star-plus Savoy Hotel for unknown reasons during a conference last June. The conference on international immunizations was at another five-star hotel where Oda cancelled her cheaper room in favour of the tonier Savoy, more than two kilometres away. A terse message from Oda’s office said that all costs that should not have been expensed have been repaid. Oda’s expensive tastes, including a $16 glass of orange juice at the Savoy, created a storm of controversy when the government is cutting overseas development funding.

Sierra Leone. Civil-war survivors celebrate warlord’s conviction Thousands of people who survived Sierra Leone’s brutal civil war a decade ago celebrated Thursday after learning that Charles Taylor had been convicted for his role in the conflict that left behind countless amputees and traumatized former child soldiers. Officials had set up special viewing sites for people to watch the verdict live as it was read from the Netherlands. On Thursday, officials set up an area for several hundred residents of Tombodu to listen to the verdict live from the Netherlands, but they couldn’t Airport adventure

Justice
“I am happy that the truth has come out ... that Charles Taylor is fully and solely responsible for the crimes committed against the people of Sierra Leone.”
They gathered by the tens of thousands, aiming to face down terror with the power of music. Inspired by a Facebook-organized protest, Norwegians flocked to public squares across the country Thursday, ignored the drenching rain and lifted their voices in song. Their target: Far-right fanatic Anders Behring Breivik, now on trial for a bomb-andshooting rampage that killed 77 people. Their weapon: A children’s tune that he claims has been used to brainwash the country’s youth into supporting immigration. Defiant sing-alongs of Children of the Rainbow were staged in Oslo and other major Norwegian cities, while in court survivors of Breivik’s attacks gave tearful testimony in the ninth day of his trial. In downtown Oslo alone, some 40,000 people chimed in as Norwegian artist Lillebjoern Nilsen played the song

Some 40,000 people stand in the drizzling rain in Youngstorget Square in Oslo, Norway, on Thursday to participate in the singing of “Barn av Regnbuen” (Children of the Rainbow). kyrre Lien/the associated press Power of music
Those gathered sang the Norwegian lyrics: “A sky full of stars, blue seas as far as you can see. An earth where flowers grow, can you wish for more? Together shall we live, every sister, brother. Young children of the rainbow, a fertile land.”
— a Norwegian version of American folksinger Pete Seeger’s My Rainbow Race. In testimony last week, Breivik mentioned the tune as an example of how he believes cultural Marxists have infiltrated Norwegian schools and weakened its society. Later, the crowd marched to the Oslo courthouse, where they laid a carpet of red and white roses on the steps and the fence. Reached at home in Beacon, N.Y., the 92-year-old Seeger told The Associated Press he had heard about the mass gathering from Nilsen, who called him Thursday morning. “I said, ‘Oh, that’s wonderful,’” Seeger said. “It’s a tremendous honour, really. One of the greatest honours a songwriter could have is to have a song of theirs sung in another country.” Shocked by Breivik’s lack of remorse for the massacre, Norwegians by and large have decided the best way to confront him is by demonstrating their commitment to everything he loathes. Instead of raging against the gunman, they have manifested their support for tolerance and democracy. the associated press

Pakistan PM serves token detention after contempt conviction Symbolic sentence. Court decision touches off political turmoil for a regime already rocked by security and economic problems Pakistan’s Supreme Court convicted the prime minister of contempt on Thursday but handed him a symbolic sentence of less than a minute’s detention, allowing him to leave the building surrounded by cheering supporters and still in power. The ruling against Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani triggered renewed political turmoil and could lead to his dismissal in the coming months. The tensions risk consuming a government already burdened with major economic and security challenges. The latest twist in a long-

running saga came as an American envoy arrived in the country to kick-start negotiations over Washington’s broken but vital alliance with Pakistan. Gilani was charged with contempt for his refusal to pursue a long, dormant corruption case against his political master, President Asif Ali Zardari. The court could have sent him to prison for
six months and ordered his immediate dismissal from office, but appeared to blink first in what has been a bruising standoff. The parliamentary speaker and election commission must now decide whether the conviction is reason to dismiss Gilani as a lawmaker, and hence as prime minister, a procedure that could take up to four months. the associated Press

Secret Service prostitution, stripper scandal widens Internal probe. New reports of impropriety in El Salvador come hours after security head says Colombia misconduct appeared to be isolated incident The Secret Service acknowledged Thursday it is investigating whether its employees hired strippers and prostitutes in advance of President Barack Obama’s visit last year to El Salvador. The disclosure came hours after the Homeland Security secretary assured skeptical senators that a separate prostitution scandal in Colombia appeared to be an isolated incident. A spokesman for the Secret Service, Edwin Donovan, said the agency was investigating allegations raised in news reports about unprofessional behaviour that have emerged in the aftermath of the prostitution scandal in Colombia. The latest, by Seattle television station KIRO-TV, quoted anonymous sources as saying

that Secret Service employees received sexual favours from strippers at a club in San Salvador and took prostitutes to their hotel rooms ahead of Obama’s visit there in March 2011. Prostitution is legal in both Colombia and El Salvador. Separately, The Washington Post earlier this week cited unnamed “confidants” of the Secret Service officers implicated in the Colombia scandal saying senior managers tolerated similar behaviour during official trips.
It described a visit to Buenos Aires in 2009 by former president Bill Clinton, whose protective detail it said included agents and uniformed officers. During that trip, the Post said, members of the detail went out for a late night of partying at strip clubs. White House spokesman Jay Carney said he doubted that President Barack Obama was aware of the allegations from El Salvador when he was briefed by Secret Service director Mark Sullivan last week in the Oval Office. the associated press

Justin Dowd from Worcester, Mass., has won the Race for Space, the global competition to select one Metro reader to travel into space. Dowd beat candidates from across the globe to win the coveted once-in-a-lifetime ticket on board the XCOR Lynx, a first-generation, rocket-powered spaceplane currently being built by spaceflight company SXC (Space Expedition Curaçao). Dowd has both the mental and physical strength needed to be a perfect astronaut. Dowd, a physics and maths undergraduate at Northeastern University, wowed the judging panel with his stunning chalkboard stop-motion video on Einstein’s theory of relativity. Aside from his studies, Dowd is currently training for a grueling 19-kilometre endurance obstacle course race.

“My motivation for him is that he really provides an amazing package in the combined qualities of scientific background, artistic qualities, dedication and the gift to tell a fascinating story,” said Harry Van Hulten, test pilot with SXC and global jury member that selected Dowd. “He is absolutely unique. He taught me things in his video that I didn’t understand as well as I do now. He really blew me away with that. I
can’t think of any better ambassador to tell the story about this space trip than him.” Dowd will receive astronaut training ahead of the trip scheduled for 2014. The “civilian astronaut” will be able to chronicle his preparations and space flight in a series of reports published in Metro across the globe. “I have dreamt of going to space since starlight first streamed into my telescope,” Dowd said. “My instinctive

Mortgages. Flaherty eyes tighter CMHC oversight The federal government is increasing oversight on the issuing of governmentbacked mortgages in Canada, while also putting more of the risk for lending on the banks. As previously signalled in the budget, Finance Minister Jim Flaherty tabled changes Thursday that will place Canada’s Mortgage and Housing Corp. under the control of the federal financial regulator. Flaherty said CMHC has become a significant financial-sector player in Canada, and it was appropriate that it meet the high standards of soundness demanded by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions. “I’ve been concerned

Under the changes, CMHC will be subject to annual “stress tests” like those that currently exist for banks to ensure its financial soundness under extreme economic conditions. the canadian press

Murdoch says his executives were the victims of cover-up News Corp. executive chairman Rupert Murdoch said Thursday that his U.K. newspaper company was the victim of a coverup, alleging that he and his son were deliberately kept in the dark about phone hacking at the News of the World. Murdoch was being questioned at a media-ethics inquiry led by Lord Justice Brian Leveson, which was set up following the scandal over large-scale wrongdoing
at the Sunday tabloid. “The senior executives were all misinformed, and shielded from anything that was going on there,” he told the inquiry. “I do blame one or two people for that.” He didn’t name them, but in suggestive comments identified one of those people as “a clever lawyer” who drank with many of the journalists involved. “This person forbade them

Bachelor Canada reveal. The Canadian version of Neil Morton The Bachelor franchise Metro debuts this fall, and next Tuesday, May 1, the first ever Canuck bachelor will be revealed. They are dropping daily hints at BachelorCanada.ca about who the lucky guy will be. Here’s your main hint: It’s not me. I am taken. I know — you’re all devastated. The Windsor Hum. A mysterious, low-frequency rumble dubbed the Windsor Hum has been annoying the heck out of people in Windsor, Ont., for the past couple of years. Apparently, it originates from an industrial site in Michigan, and even our feds are now investigating. There’s a @TheWindsorHum account on Twitter. Minus that hum noise. Triple play. The Toronto Blue Jays turned a triple play in a 4-3 win over Kansas City, their first since 1979. Though it was really their first since 1992, if you count the terrible missed call in Game 3 of the World Series when Kelly Gruber clearly tagged an Atlanta Braves base runner before he reached base. Same thing happened to me in a T-ball game in 1978. Will and Kate’s first anniversary. The world’s most famous couple is celebrating their first anniversary this Sunday. Can you believe nearly 365 days have passed since two billion people watched the royal wedding!? Before you know it, WillKat will be celebrating 10 years of marriage with their three kids, two pets and 1.5 cars. In their palace. They grow up fast. A father from the Netherlands filmed his daughter every week from birth up until age 12, and posted a time-lapse video of her growth, called Portrait of Lottie, on Vimeo. It has gone viral, and said dad has totally raised the daddy bar. Message to soon-to-be dads: Get your video cameras ready. You have a lot of filming to do. Ron Artest. He changed his name to Metta World Peace but the L.A. Laker should consider changing it back to Ron Artest or Metta World Chaos after the absolutely vicious elbow he threw at Oklahoma City’s James Harden in a game on Sunday. The reputation he worked so hard to restore after that incident in 2004 where he climbed into the stands and started a brawl with fans at the Palace of Auburn Hills, Mich. ? Gone. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West. If you were to put two of the most self-indulgent, conceited, narcissistic people together in the ultimate exercise in matchmaking egocentrism, you would get this couple. And it has happened. They are an item. But this might not work. See, they are both in love with someone else. Themselves. Ford’s weigh-in cancelled. Toronto Mayor Rob Ford, who began his Cut the Waist challenge in January, hoping to lose 50 pounds by June, keeps cancelling his weekly weigh-ins. For the third time in a month, he didn’t show up. Either he “chickened out” or was too busy trimming budgets rather than himself. Red Hot Chili Peppers. Next week, they’ll release We Salute You, an EP of classic covers to celebrate their recent induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, including covers of previous inductees like the Ramones and Neil Young. Doubt Axl Rose would ever do such a thing. He refused to be inducted with his band, Guns N’ Roses. (Un)sweet child. the list

U.K. needs more blood this year
Public events affect donations
London. It’s what you can call ‘body art-ery.’ Donors from each of the four main blood groups are painted with vessels to raise awareness of the need for donors of all blood types. Britain’s National Health Service says it needs 30 per cent more blood than normal during the Diamond Jubilee and Olympic Games. metro
Reasons. The increase is needed because of the high number of events in Britain this year. Past experience shows that donors miss appointments during national celebrations as routines are disrupted. This, combined with foreign visitors with a different blood mix, may also put a high demand on specific blood groups.
• After donating, blood is broken up into different parts in a centrifuge machine; red blood cells are then separated from liquid plasma. • 65 per cent of all blood donations are made in developed countries, home to just 25 per cent of the world’s population.
Every unit counts
7,000 extra units of blood (each approximately half a litre) is what hospitals in England and North Wales need every day to deal with medical demands. Each unit saves or improves the lives of three patients.

Houston sparkles
Jason Segel and Emily Blunt have a long wait before their nuptials in The Five-Year Engagement. HANDOUT Reel Guys
RICHARD CROUSE AND MARK BRESLIN
Waiting for a wedding The Five-Year Engagement. Rom-com driven by its charming and charismatic coupling Richard: Mark, somewhere etched on a stone tablet are the Rules of Rom-Coms™. All romantic comedies, it seems, must have an unlikely couple meet, fall in love, hit an obstacle and then reconcile just before the credits roll. Five-Year Engagement is no different, but shakes up the formula with some dark comedy — frostbite, anyone? — and two leads with charm and charisma to burn. Mark: Normally I would appreciate the dark touches in a movie like this, but instead I found they wrecked the comic tone. That tone, incidentally, was also compromised by an uneven script that was just too long and repetitive. I have noth-
ing but praise for the actors, though. I cared about the two leads, and without them there would be no picture, but it was all the wonderful comic turns by some of my favourite character-savvy comedians that made the film. My favourite? Brian Posehn, from the Sarah Silverman Show. Yours, Richard? RC: I agree with you to a point. I liked the darker touches because they helped separate this from the run-of-themill rom-com. Having said that, they also weigh down the midsection of the movie. Luckily this isn’t Kristen Bell, or worse yet, Katherine Heigl and any other Standard Romantic Male Lead™, but Blunt and Segel. They are the engine that keeps the movie moving forward. They are helped not only by Posehn, but also Community’s Alison Brie, who is a scene-stealer. Watching her and Blunt have a grown-up conversation in Muppet voices is worth the long running time.
MB: Almost, but not quite. The five-year engagement should not feel like it’s spooling out in real time. The Muppet scene is priceless. So is Segal’s desperate and exhausted sex scene with his younger girlfriend. And if it’s dark comedy you like, look no further than Segal’s brunch with his parents toward the end of the movie. There is indeed much to admire and enjoy in this movie. But all the jokes that involved life in small-town Michigan seemed worn, as did the restaurant scenes. The university researchers made me laugh, mostly due to Kevin Hart, Mindy Kaling and Randall Park. But see? Too much going on here! RC: It could have used some trimming, but for me it succeeds not because it follows Rules of Rom-Coms™ but because it doesn’t. MB: And the liberal use of Van Morrison tunes nudges this one over into the plus column for me.

Synopsis
Jason Segel is Tom, a San Francisco chef engaged to his girlfriend Violet (Emily Blunt). The quirky couple — they go to parties dressed as Princess Diana and Super Bunny — are a perfect match, but circumstance is getting in the way of the wedding plans. First Violet’s sister Suzie (Alison Brie) preempts her sister’s big day by getting pregnant and planning a shotgun wedding. Then psychology student Violet accepts a place in a twoyear graduate program at the University of Michigan, once again placing a speed bump in the way of their walk down the aisle. •

Cee Lo Green, Mike Epps and Jordin Sparks help Whitney Houston return to the big screen for the last time in the girl-group movie Sparkle. Houston served as executive producer of the movie, which had already finished filming in Detroit when she died in Beverly Hills on Feb. 11 at age 48. A brief preview Wednesday night at the CinemaCon conference in Las Vegas featured Houston’s trademark dazzling smile as she danced in a living room in celebration. The remake of the 1976 movie stars Houston as the mother of three girls who form a singing group and struggle with fame and drug addiction. The movie, scheduled for release in August, was seen as a comeback vehicle for the superstar. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

••••• While Jason Statham has shown acting skill, the British star’s one-note script choices — like playing a former crooked cop seeking redemption by saving a mathematicallygifted young girl from the mob — does little to advance his typecasting. Plus, plenty of up-close frenzied fight scenes only muddle what’s an already formulaic action-thriller. If he keeps turning out movies like Safe, Statham will surely end up this generation’s Chuck Norris. steve gow

••••• Another fantastic stopmotion comedy from filmmaker Peter Lord (Chicken Run), The Pirates! tells the tale of a band of bumbling buccaneers trying to upgrade their captain’s award status from “best anecdote of a squid” to the Pirate of the Year despite his sheer incompetence. With plenty of clever visual gags (too many for just one viewing) and witty detail, Lord delivers a triumphant treasure chest for audiences of every age.
Taking the meta-film stance that an ever melancholy, alcohol-fuelled Edgar Poe might have been embroiled in a real-life serial killer case with his own work as the key is a pleasingly post-modern device. And while director James (V for Vendetta) McTeigue’s film never really rises to the wild heights that premise promises, it’s still an entertaining, handsomely designed yarn well told, undermined somewhat by a meat and potatoes script and some weak supporting casting. But John Cusack, finally playing his age, is fantastic.

In this case, it’s the Seediq aboriginal people of Taiwan squaring off against Imperial Japan. But director Wei Te-Sheng gives us more than just the David vs. Goliath type of narrative. ian gormely

The Lady Director. Luc Besson Stars. Michelle Yeoh, David Thewlis
••••• Biopics are a tricky tightrope to walk, especially when the subject is still living and their cause still a going concern. The film chronicles Burmese democracy activist Aung San Suu Kyi’s political awakening as an adult living in England, flipping back and forth between historical markers and the strain her decisions put on her husband and two children. David Thewlis is fantastic as her longsuffering and supportive husband Michael Aris, and their scenes together prove to be the film’s heart and soul. ian gormely

Avengers assemble! The stars talk about getting in character Teaming up. It takes a lot to balance superpowers and share the spotlight with a bunch of other big names Ned ehrbar
Metro World News in Hollywood
It’s all been leading up to this: Four years after Iron Man — with The Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, Thor and Captain America in between — The Avengers assembles Marvel’s team of superheroes into the summer’s most jampacked blockbuster. Written and directed by Buffy creator Joss Whedon, the film finds our heroes united, trading barbs while battling Loki, the superbaddie from Thor. We asked each member to reflect on the making of the film, and check in with some of the supporting cast, too. Captain America Chris Evans on his role in the team: I give all these orders. It’s like, ‘Hulk, you do this impossible thing. Thor, you bottleneck a portal, and Iron Man, you fly over here — and I’ll take the stairs’ (laughs). But who would Evans trade places with if he could? See, I want to say Iron Man because I love those movies. But who can do it better,
Robert Downey Jr. says he’s happy to not have to be the sole star.
Samuel L. Jackson found it difficult to play straightlaced Nick Fury.

Chris Hemsworth, left, struggled with learning the grace of a god.
you know what I mean? You think the shoes would be too big to fill. Thor Chris Hemsworth on being a graceful Norse god: I have one [fight] scene where I was on the wire — because I hadn’t learned to fly yet —
and I was supposed to come down and land on a cliff. I was supposed to land, step and have a conversation. The first couple of takes, I just face-planted into the dirt. Very ungraceful and unsuperhero-like.
Mark Ruffalo on taking on the mantle of The Incredible Hulk character (he’s the third actor to play this role in a decade): It was terrifying. I knew what my responsibility was, or I felt it just by making the

mistake of going online and reading some of the fanboy responses to the announcement that I was playing the next version of Bruce Banner. And that was a mistake. I will never do that again. But I never had a role more scru-

tinized and criticized before I even shot a single frame. Iron Man Robert Downey Jr. on not going it alone anymore: I remember I would get nervous about [the idea of pairing up the superheroes] and excited about it and doubtful of it. By the time Chris and Chris had launched their individual franchises with success and charisma, and by the time we had Mark, I was like, wow. So just being a worker among workers is kind of where I started out and it was nice to not have to really have to carry a movie. And everyone was really, really, really equal in this venture. Hawkeye Jeremy Renner on how surreal it was to assemble the team for the first time: I think it’s just getting all of the actors in one room all in costume — it was like Halloween. I was friends with them as humans, and now they’re dressed up like silly people. When everybody was together, that was the most memorable. And creepy and funny. Getting to play with Thor’s hammer while he stroked my bow. Oh here we go, that’s going to be great. That’s going to get me in trouble. Nick Fury Samuel L. Jackson on being the straight man (unsurprisingly, he didn’t love it): I kept wanting to say [to Thor], ‘I don’t come your world to blow s--- up,’ but they won’t let me say it!

Behind closed doors, vicepresident Selina Meyers and her team behave badly — very badly. But the more preposterous the situation, Hale hypothesizes, the more truthful it seems.
• “One person cannot be
that positive and mechanical and perfect all the time. They have to have a breakdown; they have to go behind the scenes and scream at somebody.”
Tony Hale’s latest role finds him in an unhealthy, codependent relationship with a domineering woman. He is neurotic, but smart. And we’re not even referring to Hale’s reprisal of Buster Bluth on the new episodes of Arrested Development slated to hit Netflix next year. Before he straps on Buster’s prosthetic hand (bit off by a seal, fans of Arrested will recall), Hale appears as another loveable loser: Gary Walsh, personal aide to vicepresident of the United States Selina Meyer (Julia LouisDreyfus), on HBO Canada’s new political satire Veep. (Armando Iannucci, the man behind the razor-sharp political commentary, In the Loop, created the show.) “With Buster’s social anx-
iety, if he were placed in Gary’s situation, he would be committed (to a mental institution),” Hale says. Meanwhile, we learn through the sitcom’s documentary style that Gary thrives under pressure, ready at a moment’s notice with whatever his boss may need — be it a conversational factoid on the politicians she may be chatting with, or hand sanitizer. “Gary is very, very efficient,” Hale says. “He carries around this bag with all of Selina’s stuff, everything from an extra pair of shoes for her to, if needed, a letter of resignation.” That letter of resignation would be for Selina, Hale clarifies, because without his job, Gary would be lost. “If somebody were to come up to him and say, ‘You’re fired,’ I think he would fall apart,” Hale says. “He’s a guy who should have left his job in his 20s, but the fact of the matter is that his identity is wrapped around Selina. He pretty much worships her. I have a feeling that his mother has been carried over into Selina, so I’m sure there are a lot of childhood wounds that are being played out.” Mama Bluth would be so proud.

Spears gives up rights to dad and fiancé

OUR TAKE ON THE WORLD OF CELEBRITIES
Dorothy Robinson scene@metronews.ca
In a sad state of affairs — for Britney Spears, at least — a Los Angeles court has approved a request to add fiancé Jason Trawick as a co-conservator in charge of her finances and decisions, according to TMZ. Trawick, along with Spears’ father, Jamie Spears, will be responsible for all decisions pertaining to the pop star’s personal life. Spears has been under the conservatorship since 2008. It was originally reported that her father had requested Trawick be added, but it turns out it was the singer herself. A lawyer for her father says her client is “thrilled” with the addition. “It’s all in the family.” Shudder. Look, it’s apparent that Spears is still kind of a sick puppy and needs the guidance to make sure she doesn’t have another
spectacular flame-out during which she shaves her head and starts smashing cars with an umbrella and/or loses all of her money to skanky backup dancers.
But still: Doesn’t seeing a successful 30-year-old woman give up her rights to her father and soon-to-be husband feel like some medievallevel-ish?

Resurrecting Down Under flavours LIQUID ASSETS
Peter Rockwell @therealwineguy peterrockwell@eastlink.cca
In what seems like a month of celebrity deaths, it’s sad that a member of one of my favourite ’80s bands went to the great beyond nearly unnoticed. That got me thinking about wine. Greg Ham was the sax player for Down Under’s Men At Work. A quintessential new wave group, it hit the big time then crashed and burned — much like the Aussie wine industry. Australian wine was all that and more pre-21st century, but as wineries started chasing the same flavour profile, the liquid homogeny started to bore consumers. Thankfully, an ever growing crop of interesting new producers have emerged from Australia. Many are taking advantage of the growing popularity of groovy grape blends and old school label graphics. Gotham Wines’ The Wine Men Of Gotham 2008 Grenache Shiraz ($13.99 - $14.99) has a throwback flavour reminiscent of the deep, dark Men At Work-era Aussie reds. Though the mix of grenache and shiraz is classic French Rhone Valley, the two grapes combine with harmony in a warmer climate and the concentrated berry goodness tastes as lip-smacking on its own as it does with grilled meats from the barbie.

Lip-smacking, slowcooked comfort food Balsamic Braised Short Ribs. The deep flavoured sauce and ribs are perfect over mashed potatoes Short ribs are the ideal cut of meat to be braised. They have quite a bit of marbling and can be tough if not properly cooked. You can get short ribs off the bone, but for the best flavour, opt for on-the-bone.
1. In heavy-bottomed pot, heat
oil over medium heat. Working in batches, sear short ribs for 4 mins. on each side or until well browned; transfer to a plate.
2. Add leeks, onions, carrots, celery and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, 15 mins. or until well browned. Add tomato paste, salt, red pepper flakes, and black pepper; cook 7 mins. or until tomato paste turns a brick reddishbrown colour. 3. Add vinegar, sugar, rosemary and mustard. Scrape up any browned bits from bottom of pot. Return short ribs to pot, then add beef stock. Bring mix to low simmer and cover. Pot can be left on stovetop on low heat or placed in a 160 C (325 F) oven for 2 hours or until ribs tender when pierced. 4. Carefully transfer meat
platter. Cover with foil and a couple of kitchen towels to keep warm. Using slotted spoon, remove and discard solids from liquid. Bring liquid to a boil on stovetop and cook until reduced to 250
ml (1 cup). Drizzle glaze over short ribs and serve. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS/ ADAPTED BY EMILY RICHARDS, PROFESSIONAL HOME ECONOMIST, COOKBOOK AUTHOR AND TV CELEBRITY CHEF. FOR MORE, VISIT EMILYRICHARDSCOOKS.CA

Bargnani injury big part of Raps’ poor season NBA. Toronto players feel team is improving and look forward to next season Andrea Bargnani was talking about his own season unravelling, but he may as well have been talking about how the entire Toronto Raptors’ campaign went down the drain. The Raptors were in Utah in January en route to a victory over the Jazz when the big Italian forward suffered a calf injury that would sideline him for 35 games, a huge blow to a Toronto team that had begun this season with plenty of optimism. The few minutes before his injury, he said, were about the best he’s felt in Toronto. “That was the best part of the season for me because we won in Phoenix the day before and we were winning. I was really excited,” Bargnani said. “Things change fast.” The Raptors (22-43) managed just nine wins without their leading scorer. On Thursday they wrapped up their fourth consecutive disappointing season without a playoff appearance. The mood at the Air Canada Centre, however, was surprisingly upbeat as the players prepared to be post-season spectators yet again. “Of course we can’t be enthusiastic about not making the playoffs,” Bargnani said. “But on the other side, we’ve started something really good.

Luongo is a protegé of Leafs goalie coach Allaire and assistant GM Dave Nonis brought Luongo to Vancouver when Nonis was GM of the Canucks.

I’m really convinced that his principles worked.” The team went from being one of the worst defences in the league to middle of the standings. Bargnani was playing the best defence of his career when he went down. Raptors president and GM Bryan Colangelo called this a season of building before the season tipped off and didn’t deviate, sticking to his plan of player development and creating financial flexibility. Colangelo will have money to spend come free agency, the team will have a high draft pick, plus they’ve got Lithuanian Jonas Valanciunas waiting in the wings.

Rangers defencemen Marc Staal and Dan Girardi scored 4:18 apart in the second period, Henrik Lundqvist made 26 saves and top-seeded New York eliminated the pesky eighth-seeded Ottawa Senators from the playoffs with a 2-1 victory in Game 7 on Thursday night. Staal broke the scoreless deadlock, and Girardi gave the Rangers a 2-0 lead with his first career NHL playoff goal. Lundqvist allowed Daniel Alfredsson’s powerplay goal in the second but stood tall the rest of the way to send the Rangers into an
Eastern Conference secondround matchup with the seventh-seeded Washington Capitals. The Rangers hadn’t hosted a Game 7 since their Stanley Cup victory over Vancouver in 1994, but they stayed perfect at home in deciding games, winning their fourth. New York is 4-5 overall in Game 7, and the Senators dropped to 0-5. Lundqvist withstood tons of pressure from the Senators, who spent most of the closing five minutes in the Rangers’ end.

Lawrie at home on the hot corner MLB. Blue Jays’ young third baseman getting job done with high energy and athleticism
Jays third baseman Brett Lawrie throws to first in Kansas City last weekend. Tim Umphrey/Getty Images file
When Brett Lawrie was an up-and-coming prospect rising through the ranks of the Milwaukee Brewers farm system, his early scouting reports were variations of the same theme: Big bat, no glove. The native of Langley, B.C., would be major-league ready if only he had a place to play in the field. “He really has no position,” said Keith Law, ESPN’s prospects guru, in 2009 about the then-second baseman. “Good bat, potentially a special bat, but he might end up in LF.” Another pro scout, quoted anonymously in Baseball America, said Lawrie’s best position was “in the batter’s box.” Seventeen games into his first full season in the ma-
jors, the Blue Jays’ 22-yearold third baseman seems to have found a comfortable home at the hot corner. He leads his position in defensive runs saved — an advanced fielding metric that measures how many runs a player cost or saved his team compared to an average player in the same position. He also has shown the greatest range of any third baseman in the league, according to Fangraphs.com. All discussions of statistics at this early stage of the season should include a “small sample size!” disclaimer. But even without the numbers, Lawrie’s improvement at third base is obvious to the naked eye. He’s anything but smooth — often bobbling hot hits before recovering and firing to first — but his jump off the mark and the ground he covers between third base and shortstop are impressive. “He’s tremendously explosive,” says Brian Butterfield, the Jays’ infield coach. “He’s
a big reason why we are afforded the luxury of using him in a bunch of different places when we over-shift.” Lawrie’s ability to move to his left to cover gaps is what sets him apart, Butterfield says. “He just gobbles up ground.” The player himself says he always heard the criticisms about his defensive abilities, and today answers with his typical bravado. “Everyone always said I never had a position, but when I kind of sit back and think to myself, ‘How do you say I don’t have a position? I can play anywhere on the field probably as good as anybody that you put me up against.’” torstar news service

The Phoenix Coyotes roused a dormant fan base with an energetic season-ending burst that carried into the playoffs. Lunch-pail likable and brilliantly resilient, they have made hockey cool in the desert again and given the playoffs a distinctive new vibe by reaching the second round for the first time in a quarter century. And they’re not alone. After years of the same handful of teams competing for the cup, Lord Stanley’s mug has some new pursuers. Red Wings, Canucks, Blackhawks, Bruins — they’re all gone.

Tampa Bay broke up the monopoly in 2004 and the change continued after the players returned and the salary cap was put in place, levelling the rink so small-market teams had a chance.

Taurus | April 21 - May 21.
You may have to tread on toes today but that’s OK because you have serious things to take care of and you don’t have time for pleasantries.
Gemini | May 22 - June 20.
You are in a playful mood at the moment and simply cannot be bothered with people whose outlook on life is negative
Cancer | June 21 - July 22.

Win!
Leo | July 23 - Aug. 22. You have a knack of being able to make other people believe you. Use that talent to your advantage. Virgo | Aug. 23 - Sept. 22.
It’s not true that you don’t have as much talent as your rivals, so stop tormenting yourself. Libra | Sept. 23 - Oct. 22. You can probably bluff your way out of trouble quite easily today but don’t think you can go down this route indefinitely.
Scorpio | Oct. 23 - Nov. 21.
Don’t push yourself too hard over the next two or three days because the serious stuff can quite safely be left until Monday morning.
Sagittarius | Nov. 22 - Dec. 21. You won’t be in a very chatty
mood today, not at all your usual happy-go-lucky Sagittarian self.
Capricorn | Dec. 22 - Jan 20. It seems you have come to the
conclusion that certain issues are not worth getting worked up about.
You write it!
Aquarius | Jan. 21 - Feb 18.
Don’t give up on something just because it turns out to be harder than you expected.
Pisces | Feb. 19 - March 20.
It’s a good time to approach people in positions of authority. Show them that you are serious about moving up in the world they will help you in every way they can. Sally brompton
