Expect larger police presence in GTA. ‘Unprecedented’ response to recent crime includes putting more ‘boots on the ground’ before school starts
Hundreds more uniformed police officers will be at Toronto’s Caribbean festival early next month and will patrol high-crime pockets across the city until the first day of school, police Chief Bill Blair announced Thursday. “Our intent is not to overpolice our communities, our intent is to over-protect them,” said Blair of the unprecedented decision to use compulsory overtime to put
Giving up ‘family time’
“I’m not going to say that our officers are thrilled about giving up weekends in the summer and giving up family time and personal time, but we have to do what we need to do.” Police union head Mike McCormack
more “boots on the ground.” The police force will add 456 more officers in the downtown core during the upcoming Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival and another 350 uniformed officers just for the Aug. 4 parade. From Aug. 6 to Sept. 9, shifts will be lengthened from eight or 10 hours to 12
hours. By extending day and night shifts to cover a full 24 hours, officers working a third late afternoon shift will be freed up to be deployed to areas with the greatest need at any time, regardless of their division. “Yes, this is unprecedented. What’s happened requires this response,” Blair said, referring to a spate of deadly shootings across the city this summer, including last week’s gun battle at a neighbourhood barbecue in Scarborough that left two dead and 23 with bullet wounds. It was the worst mass shooting in Toronto’s history. “This will be real officers working in the most victimized areas,” said Deputy Chief Peter Sloly. The officers will be patrolling areas on foot and
bike, engaging with the community and working to prevent crime, but also using intelligence-based policing to target high-risk offenders, explained Sloly. Blair defined the areas as pockets “where violence takes place.” TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Toronto Mayor Rob Ford’s office has issued a statement following the publication of a photo of him and alleged white supremacist Jon Latvis. The mayor posed for a photo with the man during the 2012 New Year’s Levee at city hall, as he did with hundreds of visitors that day, the statement says. The man requested a second meeting, which occurred in March, primarily to discuss transit, but used a name other than Latvis, the statement said. The mayor was never aware of allegations the man had made racist or offensive comments, according to the statement. Latvis was once the lead guitarist for a neo-Nazi band called RAHOWA (Racial Holy War). A photo of Ford and a man dressed in a militaristic uniform is posted on a Facebook page identified as belonging to Jon Latvis. The writer says his goal was to get the mayor’s endorsement for the “Latvian Homeguard.” TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE
Who is going to pay?
• The longer shifts will add up to 329 officers on any given day on patrols, said police chief Bill Blair, who estimated the cost of the new initiative at $2 million. • The chief said he would stretch his own budget rather than ask for more funds from the city or province.

New running route. Toronto marathon’s race for world-class status Dull factory vistas and smoggy views of the Gardiner Expressway along the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon route will be replaced in part for this year’s race on Oct. 12. Instead, runners will detour through the University of Toronto campus and jog briefly into the Annex. The annual race’s route has been changed to include more neighbourhoods, more spectators and probably more gridlock. But that may be the price Toronto pays for seeing the autumn marathon rival other bigcity races. In addition to existing paths through St. Lawrence Market, Swansea and the Beach, the route will now also pass through Church-Wellesley, Bloor-Yorkville — including the ROM Crystal — U of T, Chinatown, Kensington Market and Alexandra Park. “It’s part of a much broader long-range plan,” said race director Alan Brookes. The goal: to build a truly world-class city marathon. The new course is the latest in a series of changes over the past few years, including a move to Nathan Phillips Square, inclusion of the Beach
Fatal crash
Hit-and-run suspect charged A grieving family is feeling some relief after a Brampton man was charged in a hit and run crash that killed their 11-year-old son. Daljinder Singh Sandhu, 27, turned himself into police Monday, several days after the tractor-trailer involved in the collision was found at a Brampton repair shop. The boy’s father said Sandhu’s arrest made their grief “a little bit easier.” torstar news service
Course changes • The new course also allows for a wheelchair race, which is included in most worldclass races. • Brookes said it’s also expected to alleviate downtown congestion, with the new loop formation and a move away from GO transit stops and highway on and off ramps.
Breeding program
• The changes also mean participants will always be running with some sort of crowd support.

and television broadcast of the race with this end in mind. Dave Emilio, founder of the Beaches running club, says this is the biggest change since organizers incorporated the Beach in 2010. It’s a bit more scenic, and some people, he feels, run more efficiently when the scenery’s better. He says the changes will be good for out-oftown racers, who get to see a bit more of the city over the new route. torstar news service
A baby wombat usually lives inside its mother’s unique backward-facing pouch for six months. But the two arriving at the Toronto Zoo later this month will be doing so sans mom. The Chicago Zoological Society is helping bring orphaned wombats from Australia to North America, where they will be part of a larger breeding program.

Guelph’s Hillside truly one-of-a-kind Music. GTA music fans flock to the fest’s diverse lineup and eco-friendly ethos

Will and Zach show hits town Monday A couple of dueling U.S. “politicians” are making a Toronto stop on Monday — no, not the two running for president. Not by a long shot. Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis, who play opposing candidates for congress in an upcoming comedy, will make an appearance at the Scotiabank Theatre on Richmond Street to promote their new movie. In The Campaign, which opens on Aug. 10, a long-term
congressman played by Will Ferrell commits a major public gaffe, opening the door for unscrupulous power brokers to run a rival candidate. Enter the naïve director of the local tourism centre played by Galifianakis. The two Hollywood stars are expected to arrive at 6 p.m. According to Warner Bros. Pictures they’ll be accompanied by a couple of prominent Canadian sports icons and a Zamboni. Metro
An affordable weekend getaway of great music and good food in an idyllic urban green space, all within 90 minutes of Toronto? Sounds like a summer utopia — one that thousands of GTA music fans have discovered exists in nearby Guelph every July. The university town just west of Toronto has played host to the eclectic Hillside Festival since 1984, but it’s only in the past decade that many beyond its borders have caught on to its unique mix of top Canadian talent (the festival booked acts like Arcade Fire and Feist long before they became household names) and performers of every stripe from all over the globe. Held at the Guelph Lake Island conservation area, this year’s Hillside runs Friday through Sunday with over 50
A view of the lake at Guelph Lake Island site. Melodie Kwan
performers (including Ontario songstress Kathleen Edwards and Grateful Dead drummer Mickey Hart) over four stages, the entire weekend helmed by an army of 1,500 enthusiastic volunteers who take the festival’s grassroots, sustainable ethos to heart. What other festival has a stage with a green roof, solarheated showers and a washing station for reusable dishware? So it comes as no surprise that Hillside tickets sell out in a flash every year, with about
a quarter of festivalgoers coming from Toronto, says the festival’s executive director, Marie Zimmerman, who runs the non-profit event with a staff of only three other directors and an intern. “In a word, Hillside is like Christmas,” she says. “A celebration of light and life. In a timebound and boundary-obsessed culture, we need opportunities to be immersed in beauty and transported by music and love. We have a very open-minded audience that is restless for new
sounds and ideas.” Toronto-based artists make up a good chunk of the Hillside lineup again this year, including local retro-rockers Zeus. “Hillside’s a very friendly environment,” says band member Mike O’Brien. “It’s always a lot of fun because you’re playing to an audience that is eager to discover a new band. To look out and see your friends smiling at you — it feels like a party!” Tabassum Siddiqui/For Metro Look for Metro’s coverage of Hillside 2012 in Tuesday’s paper

Beijing flood’s official death toll rises to 77 Natural disaster. Authorities reveal grim tally, the first since Sunday, after search was hindered by mudslides Chinese authorities on Thursday raised Saturday’s Beijing storm’s death toll to 77 after the public questioned the tally of 37, with some residents even compiling their own totals in a reflection of deep mistrust of the government’s handling of the disaster. The Beijing city government said 77 bodies of victims from Saturday’s downpour had been found in the city as of Thursday; 66 of whom have been identified. Nearly half of the victims were found in Fangshan district, a rural commun-

humility, Beijing’s flood and drought prevention headquarters offered condolences to the families of the victims and pledged that it would “conscientiously sum up and reflect and learn lessons from” the flood, and improve the city’s resilience against disasters. No new death toll figures had been issued since Sunday, the day after Beijing’s largest downpour in 61 years overwhelmed drainage systems, swamped downtown underpasses and sent flash floods roiling through the city’s outskirts. Officials have kept a tight lid on information, mindful that failure to cope with the flooding could undermine the country’s leadership as it undergoes a once-a-decade transition, with Beijing leaders a part of that reshuffling. the associated press

A new report shows the drought in the U.S. heartland is rapidly intensifying and shows no signs of abating. The U.S. Drought Monitor report released Thursday shows that the amount of land classified in extreme or
exceptional drought jumped to more than 20 per cent, up seven per cent from last week. More than 63 per cent of the continental U.S. is in some stage of drought, a portion unseen since the Drought Monitor started in 1999. The drought has sent corn, soybean and other commodity prices soaring in recent weeks. the associated press

Shower abuse victim goes after Penn State Football scandal. Mystery man was seen being sexually abused by Jerry Sandusky in locker room as a boy For months, the identity of the boy who was sexually assaulted in the locker room showers by Jerry Sandusky was one of the biggest mysteries of the Penn State abuse scandal. Now a man has come forward to claim he was that boy and is threatening to sue the university. The man’s lawyers said Thursday they have gathered “overwhelming evidence” on details of the abuse by San-

Jurors convicted Sandusky last month on 45 sex abuse counts. Those included offences related to so-called Victim 2 largely on the testimony of Mike McQueary, who was a team graduate assistant at the time and described seeing the shower attack. “Our client has to live the rest of his life not only dealing with the effects of Sandusky’s childhood sexual abuse, but also with the knowledge that many powerful adults, including those at the highest levels of Penn State, put their

own interests and the interests of a child predator above their legal obligations to protect him,” the lawyers said in a news release.
They did not name their client, and The Associated Press generally does not identify victims of sex crimes without their consent. The university said it was taking the case seriously but would not comment on pending litigation. Penn State now faces an unprecedented $60-million fine from the National Collegiate Athletic Association and the prospect of multiple lawsuits by the victims. The statement from the man’s attorneys said Victim 2 suffered “extensive sexual abuse over many years both before and after the 2001 incident Michael McQueary witnessed.”

Medical bills likely to soar for some theatre shooting victims Colorado. An unknown number of the injured still face a long recovery and the associated costs Some of the victims fighting for their lives after being wounded in last week’s Colorado theatre rampage may face enormous medical bills without the benefit of health insurance. The U.S. doesn’t have universal health coverage, though hospitals are required by federal law to stabilize patients during emergencies without regard to their ability to pay. The Obama administration’s health care overhaul would cover millions more uninsured, but Republicans strongly object to its cost. Members of the public have contributed nearly $2 million to help victims, including the Warner Bros. studio that released the Bat-

Daran Lin breaks down at the urn bearing the remains of his son, Jun Lin, during funeral services Thursday in Montreal. Paul Chiasson/THE CANADIAN PRESS
It’s a word the mother of dismembered Chinese student Jun Lin never thought she’d associate with the man charged with murdering her son in brutal fashion. Sympathy. Originally, sorrow and anger dominated Zhigui Du’s thoughts as she asked herself how such an appalling thing could happen to her son in a kind and peaceful country like Canada. But as she laid her 33-yearold son to rest Thursday, Du said she has begun to feel sympathy on some level toward a man she calls the “devil.” “Back then, I could only use ‘devil’ to describe the alleged murderer,” said Du, whose son’s gruesome murder captured worldwide attention. “But later on, when I learned more about this suspect through different news sources,
especially about his upbringing, I shockingly discovered my other self who has started to develop sympathy for this person.” Du, who was too distraught to attend the funeral itself, made the remarks through an interpreter during a eulogy she gave at a later news conference. Lin’s dismembered torso was found in a suitcase dumped outside a Montreal apartment building. Other body parts were mailed to different parts of the country. Luka Rocco Magnotta has pleaded not guilty to first-degree murder. The family decided to bury their son’s remains in the land he loved and in the city he loved most. In an emotional 30-minute ceremony, Lin’s father sobbed openly as he sat in the front row. Before the ceremony began, he entered the chamber and clutched his son’s urn, crying uncontrollably. Father Henry Rodriguez, who presided over the funeral, called Lin a loving and considerate son who loved life. His life was ended by an “evil act.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Third body recovered after B.C. landslide The search. Rescue crews uncovered the body of Rachel Webber, 17, but were unable to find Petra Frehse, 64 Rescuers have recovered the body of a third victim who died after her family’s home was levelled by a huge landslide in a southeastern British Columbia community. Coroner Lisa LaPointe said 17-year-old Rachel Webber’s body was found Wednesday evening near the front of what had been her home in the hamlet of Johnsons Landing. LaPointe thanked everyone involved in the search, including volunteers and a forensic analyst who pinpointed the best locations to search in a debris field that covers more than 32 hectares.
Sisters Rachel Webber, left, and Diane Webber in an undated handout photo. THE CANADIAN PRESS
The bodies of Webber’s 64-year-old father Valentine and her 22-year-old sister Diane were found in the same area last week.
The search for Webber resumed Wednesday after rescue crews determined it was safe to go into the tiny Kootenay Lake area that was hit by the slide on July 12 after torrential rain led a mountain to give way. A 64-year-old German woman named Petra Frehse remains missing and the search for her body has ended. Despite digging a trench that was seven metres long and 10 metres wide, searchers were still not able to find her body, LaPointe said. “I’m very sorry that we weren’t able to do that for the Frehse family, but where that house was located in the slide field just made it impossible.” Death certificates will be issued for all three members of the Webber family, while an application to presume the death of Frehse will also be submitted, LaPointe said.

Airport strip search. Court case rebuffed
January 2010. Selick says written decisions will be released at a later date.
A Montreal woman who was strip-searched by border agents looking for a pink tattoo has lost her legal bid for compensation — and hope for changes to vetting procedures. It’s the latest, and possibly final, twist in Sylvie Menard’s three-year fight. In a recent judgment, the Quebec Superior Court dismissed her challenge, saying authorities had reasonable justification to act as they did. The saga began in April 2009 when Menard, who had never run afoul of the law, flew home from a Mexico vacation to an unsettling encounter with airport authorities. A computer said her name matched that of a suspected criminal with the same birth date, and police were called. Things got worse for the “really stressed” woman when a female border officer asked her to disrobe to see if she had a pink tattoo on her buttocks — apparently a distinguishing mark of her wanted namesake. She says the incident left her badly shaken and triggered a lengthy search for answers.

You Could Be Overpaying for Your Car Insurance Each insurance company has their own rates. A friend recently compared car insurance rates with their neighbor and was shocked to find out that he was paying a lot more. Although this may seem unfair, the reality is that there are many factors taken into account when an insurance company determines its rates and where you live is only one factor. The car you drive has an impact on your insurance rate. While you may not know which vehicle is more or less expensive to insure, there are a few points to consider. Each car is rated based on likelihood of a crash, injury and theft. Also, the car value plays a role, as the cost to
repair or replace the car may be higher for a more expensive automobile. All of these features of your car will affect your insurance rate. Your driving record has probably one of the biggest impacts on your rate. Good drivers get the best rates because they represent a lower risk of a claim. If you have a ticket or an at-fault car accident on your record, you will likely pay a higher rate than someone with a clean record. Where you live and where you drive also affects your insurance premium. Your postal code impacts your rate based on accident statistics in that particular area as well as the likelihood of theft. And your commute distance will likely have an impact as well, as the more time you spend on the road, the odds of an accident increase.
Most of these factors are within your control; but one critical component of insurance rates charged is the insurance company’s experience with similar profiles based on all the factors. And on top of this, each insurance company can rate the factors differently making it almost impossible to tell why a rate with one company could be thousands more than the exact same policy with another company. This means that while one insurance company may charge more in your postal code or for the car you drive, another may charge less for one or both of these factors. With so many insurance companies in Ontario, chances are you may not be with the one that can offer you the best rate for your specific profile. The only way to make sure you are getting
the best insurance rate is to check the costs with as many companies as possible. But who has the time to call or click with that many companies? One option to save time and money is to use a quoting site like InsuranceHotline.com, which will compare your rate against over 30 insurance companies.
The difference between “oh no!” and “oh.” Why pay extra for the exact same thing? Our network of over 30 premier insurance companies on InsuranceHotline.com could mean the difference between paying a lot more than you anticipated on insurance, and paying a whole lot less. Visit InsuranceHotline.com today and experience a fast, free, and easy service that will help you find the right rate for you.

Politicians turning to Twiplomacy Twitter. Study finds that 16 G-20 leaders are using tool for public diplomacy, but China, Saudi Arabia and Indonesia have not joined Twitterverse Almost two-thirds of world leaders have joined the Twitterverse where President Barack Obama and his tweet on gay marriage is the most popular to date, says a new study. But the rise in so-called “Twiplomacy” resembles something of an echo chamber, according to an analysis of 264 government accounts
in 125 countries that PR firm Burson-Marsteller describes as the first-ever global study of world leaders on Twitter. Some 264 world leaders now have a Twitter account, and researchers believe that 30 of them do their own tweeting. Altogether they have sent more than 350,000 tweets to almost 52 million followers, the study shows. But about one-third don’t follow each other and dozens don’t even follow any other Twitterers. But that doesn’t mean they don’t converse. More than nine of every 10 tweets by the Ugandan prime minister and the Rwandan president are replies, the study says. tHE ASSOCIATED PRESS
@BarackObama The most-followed account is @BarackObama, which is run by the Obama campaign office and has 17.8 million followers.

Vi Ripken was found bound but unharmed in her car Wednesday morning, a day after being abducted at gunpoint at her house, blindfolded and driven around by her kidnapper, police said. He left her in her silver Lincoln

Ripken told a neighbour that her kidnapper didn’t seem to know her son is the Hall of Fame infielder with the nickname “Iron Man” for playing in 2,632 consecutive games during his 21-year career with the Baltimore Orioles.

Palestinians continue to be caught in Syria crossfire Catch-22. Some refugees choosing to fight with rebels despite Palestinian leaders’ efforts to keep them out of conflict Like other communities sucked into Syria’s widening civil war, the Yarmouk neighbourhood in Damascus has seen death and destruction. Soldiers and snipers have gunned down demonstrators. Some protesters have taken up arms to fight back. But there’s one key difference: Most of Yarmouk’s residents are not Syrian citizens.

U.S. mulls intervention as rebels gain ground The Obama administration is weighing its options for more direct involvement in the Syrian civil war if the rebels opposing the Assad regime can wrestle enough control to create a safe haven for themselves, U.S. officials said. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton says it is only a matter of time before the rebels have enough territory and or-
ganization to create such areas. “More and more territory is being taken,” Clinton said this week. “It will eventually result in a safe haven inside Syria, which will then provide a base for further actions by the opposition.” Officials are already starting to brainstorm how a safe zone might allow Washington to step up its assistance, which

They’ve said they have little to gain and much to lose by taking sides in the fight between President Bashar Assad’s regime and the armed rebels seeking to end his family’s four-decade rule. But young Palestinian refugees, enraged by this month’s mounting violence and moved by Arab Spring calls for great-
er freedoms, are now flooding the streets and even joining the rebels despite efforts by the community’s political leadership to keep them out of the conflict. Violence has struck other Palestinian camps too. More than two-thirds of the 17,500 refugees in the southern city of Daraa fled an attack this month, the UN said. While many have returned, food and medicine are lacking. the associated press
Warning. Tanks and fighter jets could signal a massacre in Aleppo The Obama administration is warning of a possible Syrian massacre in the city of Aleppo. State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland says the U.S. has “grave concerns” about tanks and fighter jets being used in a densely populated city. She says thousands of people are spilling out of Alep-
po and calls the onslaught a “desperate” attempt by a government losing control of its country. Rebels who have been fighting for six days in Syria’s commercial capital of 3 million people are bracing themselves amid reports the government is massing reinforcements to retake the city. the associated press

Manitoba judge. Inquiry should be halted in wake of biased questioning: Counsel The inquiry into a Manitoba judge whose nude photos appeared on the Internet may be halted over complaints that the inquiry committee is biased. Sheila Block, the lawyer representing Manitoba Justice Lori Douglas, said Thursday that questions from the inquiry committee have amounted to “withering, rapid-fire, aggressive cross-examination.” “It revealed one-side views. They were not follow up, clarifying questions,” Block said. “The remedy ... is that the committee should stand down and terminate these proceedings.” The inquiry is examining whether Douglas, an associate chief justice in the Manitoba Court of Queen’s Bench, should lose her job because of a controversy that began when her husband, Jack King, harassed a client. In 2003, when Douglas and King were family law lawyers at the same firm, King uploaded sexually explicit photos of Douglas to a website dedicated to interracial sex and said his wife was looking for a black partner. He also emailed photos to a client named Alexander Chapman, who is black, and asked him to have sex with Douglas. Douglas has denied all the allegations. She and King have said King did everything without her knowledge. Block’s complaint of bias is Supreme Court of Canada
Court rules on kidnapping In a ruling that sought to define when a kidnapping begins and ends, the Supreme Court of Canada on Thursday threw out the appeal of one of Graham McMynn’s abductors.

based on questions Wednesday from George Macintosh, the lawyer who asks questions on behalf of the inquiry committee members. He went after King, who testified Douglas never knew what King had done with the naked photos, some of which showed her in bondage gear or performing sex acts. Macintosh seemed incredulous at King’s suggestion that Douglas never looked at or asked about the nude photos, some of which were taken with a Polaroid instant camera that shoots pictures out immediately. The inquiry committee was to make its decision on whether to halt the proceedings Friday morning. Guy Pratte, the independent lawyer leading the inquiry and who represents the public interest, agreed with Block that Macintosh’s questioning had gone too far. “The appearance is incontestable that it was a strong and coordinated attack on the witness,” Pratte said. the canadian press than the far more serious charge of kidnapping. Vu was among five men charged after McMynn was grabbed at gunpoint and held for eight days.

Romney’s gaffe-riddled UK trip ‘hands gift to Obama’ U.S. election. Republican candidate has annoyed Britons left and right Mitt Romney’s trip abroad was meant to illustrate his command of the international stage as he aims to deny U.S. President Barack Obama a second term in November. Instead, there was this headline Thursday adorning one of the biggest and most respected newspapers in Great Britain, the Guardian: “Mitt Romney’s Olympics blunder stuns No. 10 and hands gift to Obama.” The Guardian even featured a live blog devoted to Romney ridicule. “Romney in London,” read one tweet highlighted on the blog. “Come on. We needed this. It’s a little comic relief. Kind of like Mr. Bean, only he’s an American.” Indeed, Romney’s visit to the country considered America’s closest ally has been a veritable public relations disaster, one that immediately got off to a bad start when an unnamed adviser told the Daily Telegraph that the candidate’s “Anglo-Saxon heritage” means he can forge closer ties with Britain than Obama. As Romney tried to distance himself from those remarks, the Republican presidential hopeful set off another firestorm when he suggested London wasn’t properly prepared for the Summer Games. “You know, it’s hard to know just how well it will turn out,” he told NBC News on Wednesday. “There are a few things that were disconcerting, the stories about the private security firm not having enough people, supposed strike of the immigration and customs officials; that obviously is not something which is encouraging.”

“So Mitt Romney disses our Olympics. We’re the Special Relationship, the easypeasy bit of U.S. foreign relations. How will he deal with China?” Times of London columnist Janice Turner
He even raised concerns about the Olympic spirit of the British, asking: “Do they come together and celebrate the Olympic moment? That’s something which we only find out once the Games actually begin.” Prime Minister David Cameron was not amused. “You’re going to see beyond doubt that Britain can deliver,” a testy Cameron told reporters on Thursday. “We are holding an Olympic Games in one of the busiest, most active, bustling cities anywhere in the
world. Of course it’s easier if you hold an Olympic Games in the middle of nowhere,” he said in apparent reference to the Salt Lake City Olympics managed by Romney in 2002. London Mayor Boris Johnson joined in on the pile-on on the eve of the Games’ opening ceremonies later Thursday. “There’s a guy called Mitt Romney who wants to know whether we’re ready. Are we ready? Are we ready? Yes we are!” Johnson told a cheering crowd of about 60,000 people in Hyde Park.
The White House, meantime, made a point of highlighting the president’s “full confidence” in Britain’s ability to host a secure Olympics. Romney’s gaffes didn’t stop at the Olympics. He also mentioned meeting with the head of the top-secret MI6 British intelligence agency, something considered a protocol lapse. Even the right-wing British media were critical. “Who invited him?” asked the The Daily Mail, going on to call Romney’s British visit “humiliating.” The paper’s political editor, James Chapman, provided a Twitter play-by-play of Romney’s very bad day. The most damning came from Chapman’s Whitehall sources, whom he said branded the candidate “worse than Sarah Palin.” the canadian press

Province cancelling old red-and-white health cards 3 warnings promised. Health minister’s office says the objective is to ‘protect the integrity of our system’ The transition from Ontario’s old health cards to new ones with photographs could leave some people without coverage in an emergency, especially if they ignored notices to update their card. There are still more than 3.5 million Ontario residents with the old red-and-white health cards that have no expiry date and no picture. One of them was CTV health reporter Avis Favaro, who discovered her Ontario Health Insurance Plan card had been cancelled when she went to a Huntsville walk-in clinic after By the numbers

suffering a bad reaction to an insect bite while on vacation. Favaro was told she would have to pay $60 cash to see a doctor, and was directed to a nearby cash machine because the clinic would not accept credit or debit cards. The new health cards were introduced in 1995, and so far 75 per cent of Ontario residents have been switched from the old cards to the new. NDP health critic France Gelinas supports the transition to more secure health cards, but said “health care is a right’’ and no one should ever be denied coverage. “This is not how you do a transition from an old system to a new system, without giving any warning on a service as important as medicare,” Gelinas said in an interview. “This is not acceptable, and makes no sense.” The government said people are sent three notices telling them to register to get a new health card with a photograph and a five-year expiry date. If the card holder doesn’t respond, and the health card hasn’t been used in seven years, the government will suspend it. the canadian press

Court ruling. Kids who lost mom in car crash keep large awards

A jury award of more than $100,000 to each of two young children for the loss of their mother in a crash caused by a “demented” one-handed driver may have been high but was still reasonable, Ontario’s top court has ruled. The ruling could pave the way for substantively higher awards in the future to compensate children for the loss of a parent, one of the lawyers involved said Thursday. “This is the first case to recognize the non-economic loss of a parent is at least as significant as the non-economic loss of a child,” said family lawyer Adam Little. “Previously, the court had only given awards in that range to parents who lost a child.” The case involved the death of Michelle Vokes, 30, who died from injuries suffered when her minivan was demolished by a car driven by Randy Palmer six years ago in Owen Sound, Ont. Evidence was that Palmer was driving as fast as 120 km/h in a 50 zone when he slammed into Vokes, who was ninemonths pregnant, as she drove out of a shopping plaza following a visit to her midwife. The unborn child did not survive. Court heard that Palmer, who had no insurance, had suffered a significant brain injury years earlier that affected his judgment, and had also lost the use of one arm due to injury and drove one-handed.
Unsuccessful appeal
After a two-week trial in June last year, the jury found Randy Palmer entirely at fault, and awarded $117,000 to Michelle Vokes’ daughter Madison, who was five at the time of the crash, and $135,000 to Abigail, who was three years old, for the loss of care, guidance and companionship. Her husband Bradley Vokes was awarded $90,000. • Palmer and ING Insurance — the family’s insurance company because Palmer had none — appealed unsuccessfully on the grounds the awards were “gross and excessive.” They also argued Vokes herself was somehow at fault for the crash. • The Appeal Court rejected all their arguments. “Although the amounts awarded are high, in our view, they are not so inordinately high in all the circumstances of this case as to meet the threshold for appellate intervention,” the court said in written reasons released this week.
In 2005, a neurologist stated he was “too demented” to drive but his licence was reinstated anyway six months before the crash. the canadian press

The company said it operates 64 stores that were not acquired by Target, or were already slated for closure. Zellers has been a key part of the Hudson Bay portfolio since 1978, emerging as the company’s discount retail subsidiary by offering clothing and household items at lower price points. It remained in the HBC fold as the company refocused its efforts on its core retail business in the 1980s and 1990s. In recent years the company has made efforts to revitalize its Bay stores, hiring former Holt Renfrew executive Bonnie Brooks as chief executive officer, introducing high-end boutique spaces in its Toronto flagship store, and securing the rights to produce uniforms and merchandise for Canada’s Olympic athletes.

On a visit to London, U.S. presidential candidate Mitt Romney, who organized the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics, said the lastminute security issues in London were “disturbing.” That prompted U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron to retort that anybody can organize the Olympic Games “in the middle of nowhere.” England 1, Tea Party 0. the list
In this amazing islandand-sea photograph, you can almost see Van Gogh’s famous painting The Starry Night. The image of greenish phytoplankton swirling around Gotland, a Swedish island in the Baltic Sea, was voted by the public as the top image from NASA’s Earth as Art collection. The collection is based on more than 40 years’ worth of images from the space agency’s Earth-observation satellites. Since 1972, NASA’s Landsat earth-observing program has become a vital reference worldwide for understanding scientific issues related to land use and natural resources. Beyond the scientific information they supply, some Landsat images are simply striking to look at, presenting spectacular views of mountains, valleys and islands as well as forests, grasslands and agricultural patterns.

The Watch shifts from police procedural to comedy to alien invasion. HANDOUT Reel Guys
RICHARD CROUSE AND MARK BRESLIN
Scripts that go clunk in the night
The Watch. Three of the funniest guys around can’t even save this lacklustre comedy Richard: Mark, The Watch mixes and matches an alien invasion story with a police procedural story and comedy in the same way that it throws together its three over the title stars, Stiller, Hill and Vaughn. That is to say, sloppily. It hopes to win audiences by giving them a little of everything, but feels like the cinematic equivalent of an unmade bed. Luckily newcomer (to us anyway) Richard Ayoade spices things up. Mark: Richard, I didn’t even like this movie when it was called Ghostbusters. And that movie had an iconic cast and was very much of its moment. But this flick feels so ripped off that even the col-
our of the slime is the same. Yes, Ayoade is good, and I hope to see him in a better movie soon. And Vince Vaughan can’t help but be funny. But you’re right about the sloppiness of the whole enterprise. Every scene and every character has a different tone, resulting in a tonedeaf comedy. I don’t think I laughed once. RC: I liked this more than you think. I laughed, but the giggles didn’t come as the result of a well-crafted script or an intelligent diction. They come because this crew of veterans knows how to suck a laugh out of almost anything. Vaughn made me laugh here and there, but his fast-talking act wore thin for me a long time ago. Ditto Stiller and Hill and their trademarks. I was happy to have a breath of fresh air in the form of Ayoade, who can make a throwaway line like, “That was stressful,” the funniest gag in the film.
MB: Yes, we’re dealing with comedy pros here. The acting isn’t the problem. The script — even the idea of the script — is. This wheezy contraption felt completely fake, especially at the end when the movie turns violent. I mean, come on, is anyone in the theatre supposed to be scared of the aliens? Or care about the “heroes?” This is Hollywood committee writing at its worst, Richard, and you know it! RC: I agree, but if you go in like I did, with low to no expectations, you’ll laugh occasionally. Not loudly, and not often, but you’ll laugh. If it is alien comedy that you’re after, however, you may be better off renting Paul, starring Nick Frost, Simon Pegg and a foul mouthed ET. MB: Or Galaxy Quest or even Earth Girls are Easy. I think if this had been a pure com-
Synopsis
When a security guard is found skinned alive at a Costco, the store’s manager Evan (Ben Stiller) vows to find his employee’s killer. To get the job done he starts a Neighborhood Watch with three misfit volunteers from the community. Bob (Vince Vaughn) is a manchild with a wild child daughter. Franklin (Jonah Hill) is a psycho cop wannabe and Jamarkus (Richard Ayoade) joined because he hopes it will help him meet women. They discover the killer may not be of this planet! •

edy, or even a pure thriller, I might have enjoyed it, but it’s a hybrid in which the two genres cancel each other out. At least Ghostbusters knew it was silly.

Ai Weiwei: Never sorry
Joffrey: Mavericks of American Dance
Director. Alison Klayman
Director. Bob Hercules
••••• Ai Weiwei: Never Sorry is a documentary worth watching if only for its subject — China’s most controversial artist and activist. Though slightly meandering, director Alison Klayman convincingly lays out Weiwei’s massive accomplishments (which include designing Beijing’s Bird’s Nest Stadium for the 2008 Olympics to continual legal battles against an oppressive government) with a brisk and befitting brevity. Weiwei is a fascinating figure that’s definitively fit for the cinema. steve gow
SCENE
••••• Little did Robert Joffrey and Gerald Arpino suspect that when they formed their modern dance company in New York in 1956, throwing off the French and Russian models to originate something distinctly “American” that they were making history. The ambitious, dirt-poor company survived the patronage of a wannabe ballerina heiress and Prince thanks to its lively “current events” approach; they tackled Vietnam, spirituality, modern art and whatever popped into the founders’ heads. The vivid colours and marvels of human movement on such a grand scale is pure delight.

United States of Africa
Step Up Revolution
Director. Yanick Létourneau
Stars. Ryan Guzman, Kathryn McCormick
•••• • United States of Africa chronicles the efforts of legendary Senegalese MC Didier Awadi, to piece together a record about the leaders of the Black Consciousness movement. Doubling as a making of doc and a primer on African Nationalism, the film never fully achieves either. And while the MC’s earnest hope to have the movement’s history taught in African schools is simultaneously commendable and naïve, it’s his personal connection to the movement’s leaders that provides the film’s heart. Unfortunately there’s no clear conclusion. Ian Gormely

Raising a movie. Filmmaking couple talks about baby Ruby Sparks
Director. Scott Speer
••••• This installment of the franchise is now transported to Miami and introduces an entirely new cast. A local dance crew stages spontaneous routines on the city’s streets in the hopes of winning a viral video challenge. But when a developer threatens to tear down their neighbourhood, the tycoon’s own daughter shows her new friends that their fancy footwork can be used to save their area from destruction. Once again, the dance sequences are spectacular. But can’t we please get a movie that offers more than your average music video? ian gormely
Zoe Kazan and Paul Dano (centre). handout
“I keep saying, ‘We have a baby,’” says Zoe Kazan. “Her name is Ruby Sparks.” But don’t send over handme-down baby clothes just yet. Ruby Sparks is the name of the movie Kazan wrote, stars in and produced with her co-star and real-life partner Paul Dano. The romantic fantasy about a lonely writer who creates a character, only to have her come to life, is the result of years of work for the couple who met on the set of another movie, Meek’s Cutoff. “I think it is not unlike that,” she says, continuing her baby metaphor. “You’re doing something incredibly stressful. You’re not sleeping. The things
matters so much to you and you love it but your relationship is suffering a little for it. You’re not having as much sex as you used to.” Dano says, “We went through something together. Something very intimate, challenging, something we really cared about. Certainly we learned something about each other going through it and after it. When we were at work we both care so much about what we do we were focused on the job. I wasn’t thinking about us. It was very easy to go to work together. Driving home from work wasn’t always easy.” richard crouse

When a house becomes a metaphor for a nation’s economic implosion The Queen of Versailles. Billionaire couple sets out to build the biggest home in the U.S., then the housing crisis hits
the people who would never be affected by the crash. We then filmed for three years, and it wasn’t until the middle of 2010 when they had to put their house on the market that the story really shifted in the film, the tone and direction really shifted. And at that point I realized it was a bigger story, not about this one family or even about the rich but really about an allegory about the overreaching of America, that their story kind of represented both the virtues and the flaws of the American dream.
Ned ehrbar
Metro World News in Hollywood
Director and photographer Lauren Greenfield set out to chronicle David and Jackie Siegel’s endeavour to build the largest single-family home in America, a 90,000 square-foot Orlando mansion, modeled after both Versailles and the Paris Hotel in Las Vegas. But as the U.S. economy continued to implode, timeshare king Siegel saw his fortune — tied to his Westgate Resorts business — dry up, and the film — The Queen of Versailles — suddenly became about something else entirely. This is what Greenfield had to say on the documentary.
The Queen of Versailles opens next Friday. handout
The timing of this was pretty interesting. You couldn’t really plan something like this. No, I couldn’t have planned it. I started when they were
building the house. We actually didn’t start filming till early 2009, so it was a few months after the crash, but at that time they were building the house, and for me they were
When a change like that occurs, how do you convince your subjects to keep going with the project? You know, it really didn’t take much convincing. I don’t know if it was because we had been working together for a while at that point, but I think it was also because David and Jackie did not have any shame about what was going on. David felt very victimized by the banks and what happened, and in a way he really was. The interest-
Legal woes
We’ll see you in court Before Laura Greenfield’s the Queen of Versailles even premiered at Sundance, one of its main subjects, timeshare mogul David Siegel, was already suing her for defamation over the film’s characterization of his company, Westgate Resorts. Since then, he’s gone on to add the film’s distributor and television network Bravo to the lawsuit. “Well, I can’t comment on it but I can also say that the information I get is the same information you get, it’s from the complaints ing thing about him is he was on both sides of it because his business was selling mortgages and he was beholden to the lenders. I think what you see
that are in the courts,” Greenfield tells Metro. “I think he would’ve liked a different ending.” According to the Wrap, Siegel sent a letter this week to Greenfield’s attorney and the film’s distributor, Magnolia Pictures, requesting new text be added to the end of the film clearing up the current state of the company and Versailles. “We would like no more than 26 words added to the already existing postscript at the end of the Lauren’s film just to clear up the misimpressions audiences are left hanging with,” Siegel says in the letter. “What you call a documentary, I call a Real Housewives of Orlando pilot.” in the film, in a bigger sense, is our kind of addiction to consumerism, and that is also part of the American character and part of what led us to this crash.

Renner not prepared for what popped up Pattinson relationship heading to its Twilight the word
Monica Weymouth scene@metronews.ca
Not surprisingly, Robert Pattinson has packed up and left the Los Angeles home he shared with Kristen Stewart. This comes after Us Weekly published photos of his girlfriend and Twilight co-star in the midst of a notso-discreet fling with director Rupert Sanders. Although Stewart issued a weepy public appeal for forgiveness, it appears Pattinson isn’t having any of it — maybe because, like Us Weekly, he noticed that
the L.A. Dodgers hat she was wearing in the photos looks suspiciously similar to one he’s frequently spotted in. “I’m not sure they’ll be able to recover from this,” a source associated with Twilight tells People magazine, adding that Pattinson isn’t in contact with Stewart and “is heartbroken and angry.” Tell us, source, how does Kristen feel? “Kristen really loves Rob more than anything,” they continue. “He’s all that matters to her right now.” There’s plenty more to come from this: Stewart is reportedly preparing to personally apologize to Sanders’ wife, and the final Twilight circus doesn’t hit theatres until November. In other words: If we have to feel like a sleazy Cheaters B-team crew, so do you, so try to sit back and enjoy the ride.
Jeremy Renner doesn’t have the best luck with flights, he tells Jimmy Kimmel during an interview. “A lot of times when I’m on the plane, I have to sleep. And I’m not a good sleeper on the plane,” the Bourne Legacy star explains. “I had to fly from London to Los Angeles for dinner, and then get right back on a plane to London. ... Somebody gave me some pills, like Ambien. So I took a little sleeping pill, popped it and realized nothing’s happening — but something else was happening!” Renner soon realized he had accidentally taken a Viagra pill instead. “Not only did I not sleep the entire flight, but there was ... ‘camping’ ... happening,” he says. “The flight attendants were sort of in on the joke. They were like, ‘Can we get you anything, Mr. Renner?’”

London beer and Olympic watching
Machines for making shaved ice at home have become common. Hand-cranked models can sell for less than $10, with more powerful electric versions averaging $20 and up. But if you don’t have or want a machine, it’s also easy to make granita-style shaved ice. ALISON LADMAN/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Peter Rockwell @therealwineguy peterrockwell@eastlink.cca
Unless they make chuga-lugging an Olympic sport, the only torch I’ll ever carry is for that brunette I had the hots for in university. I do love London and can’t think of a better place to watch our athletes compete — on TV from the comfort of one of the city’s multitude of old school pubs. They take drinking beer very seriously in England, with a pint of almost every variety of ale tracing its roots back to somewhere in the United Kingdom. While the taps advertising huge multinational producers dominate modern London’s liquor landscape, you can still get a glass of local brew at the public houses owned by individual breweries. Fuller’s is the city’s oldest, having pumped out suds in its Chiswick brewery since 1845. Its soft, smooth and creamy London Pride Ale (500 ml, $2.80 - $3.44) is, well, the pride of London. I’m partial to its Organic Honey Dew Ale (500 ml, $3.35 - $3.95), an all-natural, lightly malty creation with a subtle bitterness and just a touch of bee juice. Go Team Canada!

Introduce fresh ginger into your kitchen Fresh ginger, the gnarly brown root that lives amongst the grocer’s Asian produce, offers flavour that’s so much better than its dried counterpart that you must get to know it. Most of us think of ginger as a powder in the spice cabinet and use it mostly for baking. In Asia, where ginger originated, it’s more a savoury ingredient. That’s because fresh gin-
ger packs tons of warm, pungent, peppery flavour that works so well with meats and veggies. Though they can be used interchangeably, the flavour of fresh ginger is more pronounced than dried, sporting heavy citrus, even acidic notes. When shopping for fresh ginger, look for firm, tan roots with no signs of mould or shriveling.
It can be stored in the refrigerator for several weeks. But you can also freeze your fresh ginger. Frozen ginger lasts for months and is easier to grate than fresh. When cooking with fresh ginger, keep in mind a few things. First, cooking mellows the flavour. So if you want to really taste it, add some ginger at the beginning of cooking, and a bit more at the end.
Second, the strength of the ginger can vary widely by the piece. So if you’re looking for a serious hit of ginger, taste it before you add it. Watch cooking shows and read recipes, and you’ll be told again and again to peel your ginger before chopping, slicing or grating it. But the skin is entirely edible and doesn’t change the flavour. So save yourself the time and effort, just use your gin-
This recipe serves four.

MLB. Toronto bounces back from Wednesday’s 16-0 drubbing by Athletics A pair of big blasts and a bunt helped the Toronto Blue Jays avoid a sweep at the hands of the surging Oakland Athletics. Edwin Encarnacion hit a three-run homer in the fourth and Kelly Johnson hit a solo shot in the seventh as the Blue Jays beat Oakland 10-4 Thursday, stopping the Athletics’ winning streak at seven games.

The throw hit Snider and allowed a second run to score on the play to give the Blue Jays a 5-4 lead, and they never looked back. “In that spot we’re playing for a run just to tie things up,” Blue Jays manager John Farrell

Scott Piercy sits atop the leaderboard after a soggy opening round at the RBC Canadian Open. The American fired an 8-under 62 at Hamilton Golf and Country Club, which was softened considerably by rain that fell overnight and throughout the day. Piercy held a one-shot lead over Greg Owen and William McGirt. Robert Garrigus was another shot back. Adam Hadwin of Abbotsford, B.C., the low Canadian at this event the last two years, opened with a 66.

said. “Fortunately they mishandled the ball and we end up scoring two runs.” Milone said he rushed the throw. “When he first squared I thought maybe I would have a play at home but then I kind of saw the runner out of the corner of my eye and he looked like he was going to be safe anyway,” Milone said. The Blue Jays bounced back from a 16-0 drubbing by the A’s on Wednesday.
“You can quickly turn the page on a tough day, that’s the beauty of this game,” Farrell said. The Blue Jays scored four runs in the eighth on a double by Snider, a sacrifice fly by Yan Gomes, and a double by Johnson against Sean Doolittle and a double by Jeff Mathis against Evan Scribner. “(Toronto) executed well and got some big hits down the stretch,” A’s manager Bob Melvin said. cess.

MILANOVICH SET TO FACE FORMER BOSS Victory at old club must be on mind of Argos coach; Blue Bombers missing retired defensive lineman; and Lions should side with punishing Khalif Mitchell for hyper-extending opponents arm CFL EXTRA POINTS
Dan Toth toronto@metronews.ca
Toronto Argonauts: Argos head coach Scott Milanovich is trying to downplay his return to Montreal this weekend, where he coached for five seasons. The former Als offensive coordinator claims he’s too focused on the game to fret over coming back to his old stomping grounds, but you have to think Milanovich would love to steal two points
from old boss Marc Trestman. Hamilton Tiger-Cats: Henry Burris has erased any notion that he’s past his prime as a CFL QB with 360 yards passing and four touchdowns last week that earned him the CFL’s offensive player of the week honours. The TigerCats pivot completed 27 of 30 passes against Montreal, tying him with Jason Maas for the fifth-best single-game completion percentage (90%) in CFL history. Winnipeg Blue Bombers: Doug Brown’s retirement might have had a greater
negative effect on the Bombers defence than first thought. Despite the veteran presence of Jonathan Hefney and Jovon Johnson, the Blue have been easy to play against in 2012. That’s certainly a switch from last season when the Bombers D developed a well-deserved reputation as the league’s cockiest group. Montreal Alouettes: We might finally be witnessing the long-predicted decline of the Alouettes, who appear unable to win on the road and have allowed an atrocious 139 points in just four games. De-
spite a 2-2 record, they pulled off a miracle comeback to beat Calgary and could very well be sitting 1-3 heading into Week 5. B.C. Lions: Lions defensive lineman Khalif Mitchell has the right to appeal his twogame suspension as part of the CFLPA’s bargaining agreement with the league. But shouldn’t the Lions management (Wally Buono) have stepped in and made it clear he needs to take his medicine or face a team suspension of similar length for hyper-extending the arm of Eskimos
offensive lineman Simeon Rottier last Friday? Saskatchewan Roughriders: Not everyone is onside with Regina’s decision to construct a new $278 million, 33,000-seat football stadium for the Riders. Despite a $100 million loan from the province, an $80 million grant, and the city’s $73 million contribution toward the construction of the facility, Rider fans will still be tagged with a $12.50 service charge per game, ramping up the cost of already pricey Roughriders tickets.
In an off-season marked by Junior Seau’s suicide and scores of lawsuits over brain injuries, the NFL on Thursday launched a comprehensive wellness program for current and retired players.

Canadian swimming star Mark Tewksbury watched the opening ceremony of the 1992 Barcelona Olympics from the cafeteria of the athletes’ village. Tewksbury, who won gold at those Games in the 100-metre backstroke, was hoping to get a leg-up on the competition by saving his legs from what he knew would be a long and physically taxing night. “I got to the cafeteria and my main competitors were all there watching on TV too,” said Tewksbury, Canada’s chef Quoted

de mission at the London Games. “But it was OK. I won it by six one hundredths so who knows? That might have been the six hundredths I would have lost.” Many of Canada’s athletes are skipping Friday’s opening ceremony, some because they’re competing the next day, others because they’re housed in locations that are too far a trek from the stadium. “Some people really get lifted by it and some people think the physical drain is too much,” Tewksbury said. “It’s a personal choice.” “The whole point of the Olympics is performance. That’s the memory you want to take for the rest of your life and you’ve still got the closing (ceremony). The closing is there and it’s really the athletes’ ceremony. It’s awful to walk in an opening and regret it because it impacted your performance.” The ceremony at Olympic Stadium, directed by Danny Boyle — the Oscar-winning director of Slumdog Millionaire — is scheduled to begin at 9 p.m. local time (2 p.m. ET, CTV) and end at midnight. Most of the athletes will be able to walk back to their housing, which is adjacent to Olympic Park, but it still puts them back at the village as late as 12:30 a.m.

Triathlon athlete Simon Whitfield of Victoria will lead Canada into the ceremony as the team’s flag-bearer. They are expected to leave the village at 9 p.m. and enter Olympic Stadium at 10:15. Canada’s swim team won’t march in the ceremony, meaning freestyler Brent Hayden will be three-for-three in giving the Olympic opening ceremony a pass. “It’s always kind of team policy that if you’re competing within the first few days you tend to skip just because you’re not going to get to bed at a reasonable hour,” Hayden said. “Standing up for hours on end, tiring your legs out is not necessarily the best thing to do before a competition. We all wish we could be there. We are all very patriotic and we would just love to be able to walk into the stadium with our country, waving our flags, but we’re here to compete.” The Canadian press
Quick turnaround
Several thousand athletes from 204 countries will take part in the ceremony.

• The International Olympic Committee has pressed London organizers to make sure the show doesn’t run late so that athletes can get to bed at a reasonable hour. • There are medal events Saturday in archery, fencing, cycling, judo, shooting, swimming and weightlifting. • Canada’s rowing team will hold its own opening celebration — with the athletes all dressed in their ceremony outfits — at its hotel near the rowing venue. Rowing begins Saturday, with the first boats scheduled to push off the start line at 9:30 a.m.

Bond: What to expect at opening ceremony
Thursday. Jeff J Mitchell/Getty Images
There will be sheep. A cricket game. Nurses. Plus Paul McCartney and possibly James Bond. Officials want details of the 27-million pound ($42.3 million US) London Olympics opening ceremony to be a secret so that viewers can be surprised, but director Danny Boyle has already disclosed select details: Real farm animals on meadows, plows and maypoles, an idyllic picture of England as the “green and pleasant land,” a dance number featuring nurses and a closing song by McCartney. Reports are also suggesting a pre-recorded segment filmed inside Buckingham Palace featuring actor Daniel Craig as Bond, and a stuntman dressed as 007 who will parachute into the stadium to start the show. Later, the pastoral first act will be replaced by a grim scene re-enacting a coalblackened, industrial Britain. Here are four opening ceremony highlights to watch out for on Friday:
1 3 Boyle’s sweeping vision
The ceremony’s mastermind, filmmaker Danny Boyle, has stressed that the three-hour show will take viewers on a sweeping journey through Britain’s history, one that captures the nation’s identity, values and heritage, as well as its present and future. In their own ways, each of the elements represents some aspect of Englishness — though some in quirkier ways than others.
Un-baah-lievable opening co-stars
Seventy sheep are set to star in the ceremony, alongside 12 horses, 10 chickens and three sheep dogs. Pastoral life has long been romanticized by British writers and at every patriotic event, Britons belt out the glories of “England’s pleasant pastures” to William Blake’s anthem Jerusalem.
Maypoles
Each of Great Britain’s four nations — England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland — will be represented by a maypole topped with their national flowers. A pagan folk symbol, the maypole is still commonly erected in British villages during May Day celebrations (as well as elsewhere in Europe) to celebrate the return of warmer weather.
Bond-ing Britain with the world
Fast cars, many women, martinis shaken not stirred: The super spy 007 needs little introduction. First introduced by writer Ian Fleming in 1953, the fictional British secret agent is the protagonist in the longestrunning film franchise. Bond’s dress, cars and expensive tastes ooze British sophistication. The Associated Press

Canadians bringing swagger to the pool Swimming. Expectations running high for team after struggles in past Games Canada’s swimmers are demanding more of themselves at the Summer Olympics. After no medals in 2004 and one bronze in 2008, Canada’s team of 33 athletes is targeting three medals and swimmers in 13 to 15 finals in London. “It’s completely different,” backstroker Julia Wilkinson said Thursday. “Four years ago, it was ‘We hope we can make some finals.’ “Now it’s ‘Who is going to be the first one to win a medal?’ We’ve kind of come in with this swagger and we believe we can do it.” As though to punctuate her point, the Stratford, Ont., swimmer had her nails painted red, white and gold this week. Swimming starts Saturday and runs for eight days. The

open-water races, which are ten-kilometre swims, will be contested in the second week. Victoria’s Ryan Cochrane prevented a second straight shutout in the pool in Beijing when he won bronze on the last day of competition. Wilkinson was about to race a relay and recalls she and her teammates were stunned to tears by Cochrane’s medal.
There will be no shock and awe this time, according to the head of Swimming Canada. “I don’t have a crystal ball,” said chief executive officer Pierre Lafontaine. “I can tell you the Canadian kids in our lanes are going to walk pretty tall and they’re going to feel they belong in that pool. They’re not going to get intimidated by much.” The Canadian press

Track-and-field
Bolt says he’s been slowed by bad back Usain Bolt finally confessed there has been something wrong. It was his back. The Olympic champion said Thursday a bad back has been causing him hamstring problems, leading to a pair of losses to training partner Yohan Blake at the Jamaican trials. “It was a slight problem. I got that fixed and I’m ready to go,” Bolt said in his first formal media appearance of the London Games, where he was given the honour of carrying his country’s flag at Friday’s opening ceremony. Bolt lost to Blake twice at the recent Jamaican
trials in both the 100 and his favoured 200 metres. The setbacks fuelled speculation that he was injured but haven’t dampened expectation that he will retain his 100 and 200 gold medals. Bolt also dismissed talk that he had been training away from TV cameras and reporters at the Jamaican team camp in central England because he is injured. “I’m always ready,” he said. “It’s all about the championship. It’s never about the trials, everyone knows that. My coach doesn’t like the cameras. He likes to keep me away from the cameras.” Bolt was scheduled to appear alongside Blake and other athletes at the event in the heart of east London, but travel problems held some of them up, the Jamaican Olympic Association said.

Crossword: Sports
Aries
March 21 - April 20 Forget about your people skills today and do what feels right to you personally. The more you make an effort to be nice to certain individuals, the more likely it is they will take it as a sign of weakness.
Libra
Sept. 24 - Oct. 23 It may annoy you that certain people don’t take your ideas seriously but it’s their loss. There are options open to you now — and you don’t need anyone’s help but your own.
Scorpio
Taurus
April 21 - May 21 Whatever has caused you to subdue your feelings and become a bit emotionally distant in recent days, you are advised not to take it too seriously. The Earth turns and everything will look different, and better, tomorrow.
Gemini
May 22 - June 21 Adopt a no-nonsense nature today, especially when dealing with people whose negative attitudes can drive you to despair. The more they try to convince you that something terrible is happening, the more you should laugh at them.
Cancer
June 22 - July 23 There is no point getting caught in a battle of wills with someone in a position of power. They will win and you will lose, it’s that simple. Let them call the shots.
Leo
July 24 - Aug. 23 Cosmic activity in your own sign encourages you to believe that you can do anything. But you will accomplish more in the long-term if you focus on one particular talent.
Virgo
47
Aug. 24 - Sept. 23 You know it pays to be honest but because you are uncertain how some people might react if you tell them the truth, you are reluctant to open your mouth. That’s a mistake. They need your input, so speak up.
Oct. 24 - Nov. 22 Why are you so reluctant to take the advice of a friend? Most likely it’s because you don’t want to admit that you made the wrong choice. But what’s the big deal? You’re human like everyone else.
Sagittarius
Nov. 23 - Dec. 21 You may need to force yourself to be enthusiastic about what you are expected to do, but it’s an effort worth making. The better the job you do, the more likely it is you will be offered something more interesting later on.
Capricorn
Dec. 22 - Jan. 20 Your confidence may not be up to its usual levels at the moment but it’s not the end of the world. If you encounter the kind of opposition that makes you feel uncomfortable, just back off a bit. You’ve got plenty of time.
