Winnipeg Transit riders may see something different when they go to drop their fares into the slot on their commute Friday morning. City buses are finally being equipped with the new electronic fare boxes first talked about a decade ago. “It’s an exciting day for Winnipeg Transit,” said director Dave Wardrop at a media event on Thursday. “This is the rollout of stateof-the-art technology that is

really going to lead to being a world-class system and a leader in the industry.” The new GFI-Odyssey fare boxes, supplied by Quebec-based Garival Inc., are each worth about $20,000, according to Winnipeg Transit’s manager of plant equipment Tony Dreolini. He expects all of the city’s 565 buses will have the new boxes installed by the end of June. The new boxes feature automatic coin counters, on-screen information displays, paper transfer printers and QR readers, a separate ticket slot and sensors that will be used to read transit’s new smart cards, which will replace tickets and passes when the second phase of the changes go into effect closer to the end of the year.

No longer taking...

With the changeover to electronic fare boxes, Winnipeg Transit is no longer accepting pennies or paper money.

“In terms of passenger convenience and ease of use, it’s going to be a huge step ahead,” said Dreolini. While the changeover takes place, tickets, passes and the old-style transfers will still be have to be shown on buses that haven’t been updated yet. According to Winnipeg Transit, the total cost of switching over to the new boxes and making the necessary infrastructure changes is just under $17.8 million.

Katz, Selinger squabble over how to fund rapid transit BERNICE PONTANILLA

bernice.pontanilla@metronews.ca

As the deadline for funding for the second phase of the rapid transit corridor approaches, Manitoba’s premier said the city should focus its efforts on a federal fund that maintains a one-third formula model. Greg Selinger said the $350-million project, which would link the first phase in the downtown area to the University of Manitoba, should be funded through the federal government’s Building Canada Plan, which is shared one-third from the municipal, provincial and federal governments. Instead, the city is pursuing a public-private partnership, also known as P3. “We have to see the business case about why they believe doing it as a publicprivate partnership will be

beneficial when we know the price is going up for taxpayers at the city and the province under the method they’re proposing,” said Selinger. “Right now they’re asking for more money from Manitoba and Winnipeg taxpayers when the Building Canada fund would actually keep the price lower, (Mayor Sam Katz) knows that but he’s choosing his method of doing it.” Katz said Selinger and Minister of Local Government Ron Lemieux don’t “understand” that since the rapid transit application is more than $100 million, it needs to be evaluated through the P3 process. “You cannot go to Building Canada funds … you have to go to P3 first, to make sure that there’s value for money and then if they reject it, that’s a different story,” he said. During Wednesday’s council meeting, Katz said the future of the second phase of rapid transit is coming down to two weeks to get a plan in place for a completion date of 2018. Since December, the city

Ideological lines. Mayor wants P3s, but premier doesn’t

Mayor Sam Katz and Premier Greg Selinger have differing opinions on how the next construction phase of rapid transit should be funded. BERNICE PONTANILLA/METRO

has expected the $350-million cost of the southwest corridor to be $137.5 million from the municipal and prov-

incial governments and $75 million from the feds. Provincial government officials, including Selinger,

have steadfastly maintained their contribution is one-third of the cost, or $116.7 million. WITH FILES FROM SHANE GIBSON/METRO

More cash coming to road project near Concordia Hospital

The provincial government is chipping in $5 million toward the twinning of Molson Street near Concordia Hospital. Dr. Thomas Turgeon, president of the Concordia Foundation, said he’s been working out of the Concordia Hip and Knee Institute for the past eight years and has noticed an increase

in traffic on Lagimodiere on Molson. “Last year we did have a patient that was involved in a motor vehicle collision at the corner trying to get through … that intersection.” The total cost of the twinning project is $10 million, with the other $5 million coming from the City of Winnipeg.

However, the press conference was not attended by any city official. “The city went ahead and did their own announcement,” said Premier Greg Selinger. “We now have ensured we have the resources available and we’re now making our announcement.” As for the Molson project,

Selinger said his government has made “a commitment to build critical infrastructure in Manitoba.” “It will allow us to provide the kind of traffic access and movement here that’s so important, particularly in this facility where you have the Hip and Knee Institute,” he added.

Grove owners ink deal to open new restaurant Makeover. Couple to develop new concept for space left empty by Papa George’s shane Gibson

shane.gibson@metronews.ca

The husband and wife team behind the Grove Pub & Restaurant have inked a deal to take over the prime real estate left empty with the closure of Papa George’s in

Osborne Village last year. Miles Gould and his wife Danielle, who opened the successful restaurant and bar on Grosvenor Avenue in 2010, will take over 87 Osborne St. this summer, but say the restaurant won’t be a second location of the Grove. “We’re looking to do a different concept,” Miles told media Thursday, keeping the name and details of the new venture under wraps for the time being. “The only similarities to the Grove will be fantastic food made from scratch … great craft beers, signature

cocktails, a wide selection of wines, fantastic service and a relaxed atmosphere.” Graeme Rowswell, president of G.T. Rowswell Realty Leasing Co., who spoke on behalf of the anonymous owner of the building, told Metro a deal to bring an unnamed international chain to the space fell through in January. The new owners take over the lease July 1. After renovations are completed over the summer months, the pair hopes to open the new restaurant by Oct. 1.

Emterra. More workers looking to join union over wages, safety conditions Another group of Emterra workers is in the process of applying to join the City of Winnipeg’s largest union. In a press release to members on Thursday, CUPE Local 500 said a certification vote was held on Wednesday for Emterra drivers and swampers in Winnipeg. “We’re encouraged and excited that these workers are interested in joining the union,” said Mike Davidson, president of Local 500. “We anticipate that this process will be finalized by the end of June and will update the membership as more information becomes available.” CI13058236-OA-F-Metro-OL.indd 1

29/05/13 3:37 PM

Earlier in May, about 80 employees at Emterra’s recycling facility voted in favour of joining CUPE Local 500. That vote count took place at the Manitoba Labour Board in front of union and company officials. “They want a fair wage and safe working conditions … they want to be treated respectfully,” said Davidson at the time. Davidson said workers have expressed concerns over protective clothing, lighting and hours of work, as well as wages. A message left with Emterra was not returned by press time.

The St. Norbert Farmers’ Market isn’t letting a little rain delay the opening of its 25th season this weekend.

be available this weekend. “I would guess that we’ll probably have about 80 tables on our first Saturday.” A more-than-$500,000 project to improve drainage and spruce up the grounds at the market that was scheduled to start this spring has been bumped back to this summer, but Firth said all the work is still expected to be complete this year. Helen Eidse from Strawberry Lane at the St. Norbert Farmers’ Market is one of the original vendors who have been with the market since it opened 25 years ago. The market opens Saturday.

Parent shocked. Six young kids left alone at daycare for an hour: Police

What does your freedom look like?

Six children between one and five years old were left alone at an unlicensed home-based daycare in the Manitoba capital, police said Thursday. The woman in charge, who was the sole caregiver, left the home at some point Tuesday, police said. A mother of one of the children arrived at 2 p.m. to pick up her child and was shocked to find no adults around. “When the parent went there, there were ... numerous knocks at the residence that met with negative results,” Det. Sgt. Natalie Aitken said. “She was able to gain entry into the residence and at that time immediately notified police.” The children had been left alone at the house in the St. Vital area of Winnipeg for at least an hour but were unhurt, Aitken said. She would not say what, if any, reason the caregiver gave for leaving the kids unattended, but Aitken added it was not due to a medical emergency or other crisis.

NDP move to cap provincial party subsidies

You tell us what. We’ll show you how. tellusyourfreedom.ca Freedom 55 Financial and design are trademarks of London Life Insurance Company.

The Manitoba government is moving to cap a controversial subsidy for political parties — one the Opposition Tories say should be scrapped altogether. The NDP government has been criticized for accepting an independent commissioner’s report that would see up to $600,000 a year divided among political parties.

Other daycare mishaps

Earlier this month, a twoyear-old child at a licensed day home in Dauphin, Man., managed to squeeze through a fence in the yard and wander away, according to the Manitoba government’s online licence order registry. • The child was found about a half-hour later at a gas station. • Last May, two kids under the age of four managed to get out of a licensed daycare centre in Winnipeg, cross a busy avenue and walk a kilometre before being found.

33-year-old woman’s name because she had yet to be formally charged with child abandonment. She was released pending her next court appearance. The daycare is no longer operating. The Canadian Press

The money would be based on a formula that would include the number of candidates each party fielded and the number of votes received. An omnibus budget bill introduced today in the legislature would cut the money available by 30 per cent. Premier Greg Selinger has said the subsidy will help ensure that politics is not controlled by the rich. Tory Leader Brian Pallister has said taxpayers should not be forced to fund political parties.

Epp re-records in costly lesson Learning to Lose Control. Album features 12 new original tunes, including duet with Serena Ryder Matt Epp is Learning to Lose Control. The making of Epp’s seventh album — the singersongwriter’s second with his band the Amorian Assembly — wasn’t without a few bumps. To finance Learning to Lose Control, Epp turned to his fans. In 2012, he launched a crowd-funding campaign, eventually achieving his goal of $20,000 in the final minutes of the three-month-long fundraiser. Then, after cutting the album live-off-the-floor in Spain’s Alpujarra mountains, Epp wasn’t satisfied with the quality of the engineering so he decided to re-record most of the album in L.A. with producer Jamie Candiloro (R.E.M., Ryan Adams). “This album was just a lesson for me as a band leader, just trying to micromanage everything and eventually realizing I’m only human, nobody is expecting as much of myself as I am,” Epp said, a former Winnipegger who recently returned to Canada

Could you tell if Ford is fibbing? A lesson in deception. Expert describes how one might try to crack Toronto’s crack scandal jessica smith

Great deals to Vegas? You bet. Vegas vacation packages for less.

Save when you book your flight and hotel together to the city that offers non-stop excitement.

Human beings make poor lie detectors — our gut feelings lead us astray, and we tend to rely on false stereotypes about shifty-eyed liars. “Most people perform around the level of chance accuracy on a lie-detection task — the same accuracy as would be expected simply by flipping a coin,” said Leanne ten Brinke, a postdoctoral fellow at UC Berkeley, in an email interview. Ten Brinke studies deception. In her doctoral thesis at University of British Columbia Okanagan, she tested our ability to detect high-stakes lies

Toronto Mayor Rob Ford The Canadian Press

— specifically, televised pleas for the safe return of a missing loved one, comparing genuine pleas to those of people later found to have killed the missing person. The genuine people showed believable sadness and gave relatively long pleas. The liars

had difficulty looking forlorn. “Because many of the muscles in our face are not under strong voluntary control, they could not bring their eyebrows upward and together, as occurs in genuine sadness. Instead their eyebrows only came upward — making them appear surprised,” ten Brinke said. Her best advice is to discard stereotypes about liars — especially that they will look shifty or gaze in a certain direction. Instead, observers should look for inconsistencies in verbal, facial and body language behaviours and look for “leakages” of genuine emotion. Asked about finding the truth in the ongoing Rob Ford crack video scandal, ten Brinke said her research can be a great tool for investigative reporters. “If you notice some suspicious behaviour, you probably want to question the person further about that topic — they could be hiding something that you might be able to reveal.”

we’re doing fine.”

Rob Ford brushed aside questions on Thursday about a new claim that he knew the whereabouts of an alleged crack cocaine video in another chaotic day that saw two more aides leave. As the storm continued to rage, Toronto’s defiant mayor said he’s “not stepping aside.” Repeatedly asked about the allegations, Ford simply said: “Anything else? Anything else?” That left his brother, Coun. Doug Ford, to denounce a Toronto Star report — which did not name its sources — that alleged the mayor told senior aides not to worry about the video purportedly showing him smoking crack because he

knew where it was. “This is the Toronto Star trying to keep the story alive,” Coun. Ford said. “In my opinion, we have a disgruntled employee, exemployee I should say, that obviously is upset that’s thrown these false accusations out.” Ontario Premier Kathleen Wynne expressed concern Toronto residents were losing confidence, saying Ford “needs to deal with his personal issues.” “The premier should take care of the problems she has at Queen’s Park right now,” Ford shot back. The Canadian Press

Police said a second arrest has been made in the March killing of a Toronto man believed to be seen with Ford in a photo linked to the crack scandal. Police said Hanad Mohamed, 23, was arrested last week in Fort McMurray, Alta., in the death of Anthony Smith and was to appear in court in Toronto on Friday charged with first-degree murder. Nisar Hashimi, 23, was arrested in April and also faces first-degree murder charges in Smith’s death. Toronto Mayor Rob Ford has lost a total of five staff members since the scandal broke.

Tunisian Femen activist fined; more charges pending

An accident, say police

Amina Sboui, who posted topless photos of herself online as part of a women’s rights protest, attempted to carry out a new protest on May 19 in the religious centre of Kairouan. She was arrested and charged with carrying a canister of pepper spray. Prosecutors on Thursday, however, said they are considering bringing more serious charges against her, including desecrating a cemetery and offending public decency, according to defence lawyer Mokhtar Jannene. Sboui will appear in court again June 5. Outside the court, about 200 protesters, including many religious conservatives, chanted slogans against Sboui, accusing her of attacking the city and insulting Islam. They also shouted insults at the defence lawyers and accused them of “sullying” the image of the city, a centre for religious pilgrimage. the associated press

The mother raised the alarm about the baby when he got stuck Saturday in a pipe below a toilet in a restroom. But she had cleared away signs of a birth and did not immediately come forward as the mother.

A court convicted the Tunisian member of the Ukrainian feminist group Femen Tuesday for carrying an “incendiary object” and fined her $182. She remains in custody pending more serious charges.

Harper keeps quiet about handling of unfolding scandal Ottawa. PM has failed to address questions about how he directed staff to deal with expense issue last fall Prime Minister Stephen Harper is steadfastly refusing to acknowledge any question about his leadership during the months last winter when an expense scandal involving three of his Conservative Senate appointees was in the public eye. Harper has spent the past three days insisting that he first learned that his chief of staff had helped pay off Sen. Mike Duffy’s $90,000 in improper expense claims only after the public was told by CTV in mid-May.

Prime Minister Stephen Harper the canadian press

But he has failed to address questions about how he instructed his staff to handle the expense revelations after they first aired late last fall. Neither Harper nor his NDP and Liberal counterparts were in question period Thursday, so it fell to Heritage Minister

James Moore to bear the brunt of the opposition onslaught. “Duffy keeps the $90,000 while the Receiver General gets $90,000 from an illicit deal that was so wrong it cost Mr. Wright his job,” said Liberal MP Ralph Goodale. “Will the government repudiate the dirty money and instead garnishee Duffy’s wages and seize his assets so he pays for his wrongdoing, not some deal-maker in the PMO?” Harper faced more than 40 direct questions on the affair in the House of Commons this week but has not provided any information on who in his office was asked to handle the scandal, what instructions they were given, or why his chief of staff took it upon himself to give $90,000 to a senator accused of improper housing expense claims. the canadian press

A primate sanctuary is no longer alleging that the Ikea monkey was abused by the woman who calls herself his “mom,” who wept in court Thursday as she described her bond with her “son.” Yasmin Nakhuda took her monkey, Darwin, everywhere, she testified. Nakhuda, a Toronto real-estate lawyer, took him to work, the gym, shopping, to a wedding, and brought him in the shower with her.

Why we love Will After Earth. As Smith and sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new film opens this weekend, the Reel Guys reflect on the actorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey from Fresh Prince to king of Hollywood Richard: Mark, The Fresh Prince Of Bel Air proved that Will Smith has a flair for broad comedy, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprising that over the years heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s played so few funny roles. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always charming and his films usually have the odd laugh, but rarely has he played it strictly for laughs. In 1993 the safe move for Smith would have been to make a

comedy, instead he chose to play a con-man in the serious, talky Six Degrees of Separation. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a heavyweight role, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really good in it. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your favourite Will Smith role? Mark: Will Smith must be the most likeable Hollywood star this side of Tom Hanks. I wish I could say I like all his movies, but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. I really like his more serious roles. My favourite? The Pursuit of Happyness.

Now You See Me Director. Louis Leterrier Stars. Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson

••••• There’s nothing quite like a good heist movie, and if you can throw in a bit of sleight-of-hand, all the better. As a film, Now You See Me seems to know it’s not supposed to be much more than a good time, and there’s nothing wrong with that. Whoever pulled this ensemble together is the real star here. The Four Horsemen (Jesse Eisenberg, Woody Harrelson, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco) take what could’ve been bad CW drama-level characters and make them imminently watchable. NEd Ehrbar

After Earth Directors. M. Night Shyamalan Stars. Jaden Smith, Will Smith

••••• After his last few attempts (including 2010’s The Last Airbender), expectations for M. Night Shyamalan’s films couldn’t be lower and After Earth likely won’t help matters. A vehicle to re-team Will Smith and his son Jaden, this futuristic thriller crashes the pair on a deserted Earth where they must survive ferociously evolved creatures and seek rescue. While Shyamalan fills the film with plenty of eye-catching effects, wooden dialogue and a shortage on soul keeps its audience at arm’s length. steve gow

Foley artist Tchae Measroch’s studio is packed with a bizarre collection of items he uses to create sounds ranging from a zombie peeling its face off to a musket gun cocking. the canadian press

Have no ear — the foley artist is here! Subtleties of sound. Tchae Measroch makes a living making noise — he creates the sounds that pepper popular video games On any given day Tchae Measroch could find himself crawling around on all fours, splashing about in a bathtub or tapping on a bear skull, all in the name of his art. Such is the life of a foley artist — someone who reproduces everyday sounds for film, video games and TV, with the profession named after Jack Donovan Foley, who pioneered the craft in late 1920s Hollywood. The 37-year-old Montrealer toils in a small, dimly lit studio that looks more like a disorganized storage space containing many props, some of which closely resemble curbside junk. This is where he cranks out sound effects for video games. There aren’t many people like him. While Canada closes in on the status of being the world’s second-biggest videogame producer, with more than 16,000 employees, there are only a handful of full-time foley artists. Relying on his imagination, the Ubisoft employee improvises sounds based on what he sees on-screen while working on games like Assassin’s Creed

4. He might remove the skin from a banana to mimic a zombie peeling the skin off its face. He’s used an old door knob and latch in order to replicate the sound of a centuries-old musket gun cocking. In this line of work, as it turns out, there might be unusual uses for a medical tool whose regular intended purpose is probing body cavities. “It happened once that I couldn’t find a pair of police handcuffs in my stuff,” he recalls. “So, from my ‘Hospital Items Box’ I grabbed a speculum to sound the cuffs.” Sound effects are almost always last in the creative process. That gives Measroch and others like him precious little time to probe their imagination and grab the closest available object to produce the appropriate sound. Axes, bottles, boots, chains, old tires, swords — they’re never far from reach. His tool kit involves anything he can use to replicate a sound. He might find such

objects at home or in the most unlikely of places, such as garbage cans. And there’s plenty of trial and error. While trying to simulate the sound of someone being clubbed over the head, for instance, Measroch quickly realized his bear skull wouldn’t produce the desired effect. In the end, a coconut did the trick. Another time he discovered that his water-filled tub could provide the ambient sound for a character drowning or falling overboard. Life as a foley artist has had its challenges. “It’s like being the stuntman of sound,” he says. Measroch recalls injuring himself while working on a movie. He’d put his hands through glass while trying to emulate the sound of a woman, held captive in a cabin, banging on the window. “Sometimes it’s a tough job,” he says, “and you’ve got to be ready to get your hands dirty.” The Canadian Press

What it takes to be a foley

Starting out at age 20, Measroch worked alongside a veteran foley artist on B movies, assisting him for three years before venturing out as a freelancer and picking up film work. Measroch eventually left the

movie business and ventured into gaming, lured by the offer of greater creative challenges and recognition. More recently Measroch has been holed up in a studio creating sounds at Ubisoft’s Montreal branch.

Eco-activism. To prep for The East, actress Ellen Page moved out west Richard Crouse

scene@metronews.ca

At age 20 Ellen Page became a star playing Juno in the film of the same name. She was nominated for an Academy Award and would go on to make movies like Whip It and Inception, but first she took some time off. “I studied permaculture, design and eco village development at a place called Lost Valley in Oregon with a lot of people who had the same philosophy — strictly freegan,” she says. Freeganism, or the practice of salvaging discarded food, was just one of the things that fascinated Page during her month-long stay at the settlement. The experience taught her to live more simply and to really think about her relationship with the planet. Her time there also prepared her for The East, a new eco-thriller co-starring Alexander Skarsgård and Britt Marling. “On top of it being an incredibly beautifully written

Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman love indie films, especially when they get to work together.

Perfect package. Megan Mullally and Nick Offerman love working together — it means less time apart Matthew Prigge

Metro World News in New York

The dominant power couple in the world shifts at the whim of a fickle populace. Right now, for some, the greatest — or just most wonderful — duo is Nick Offerman and Megan Mullally. Married since 2003, the two have seen a shift in their careers: Once Mullally was the one with the hit show (Will and Grace). Now it’s him, as burly libertarian carnivore Ron Swanson on Parks and Recreation — although Mullally has guest appearances as his ex-wife, Tammy. In fact, they tend to work together on the same projects; that way, they don’t have to spend any time apart. In The Kings of Summer, Offerman plays the widowed father of a teenager who runs away from home to live in the woods with his bros. Mullally plays the mother of one of his friends, which affords them only a few scenes together.

You’ve both been doing a lot of smaller films, often together. What’s the appeal of these projects?

Mullally: I think we both love doing indie movies. It’s kind of the equivalent of the 99-seat play. You have the feeling that you have more creative leeway and you can make it be the way you want it to be. When everyone is on a level playing field and nobody is getting paid, I think everyone pitches in equally and has the same kind of desire to create something good. Offerman: We choose material, first and foremost, based on scripts that we think are very good. Scripts that don’t go through the corporate regime are going to end up better because they’ll retain somebody with a beautiful artistic vision and/or a great sense of humour. That will come through in an independent script much more so than a studio project. Those can’t help but be homogenized by the standards and practices, the Coca-Cola people. How did you get involved in Kings of Summer? Offerman: They were looking for sort of a gruff guy who could also tell a joke and Russell Crowe wasn’t available. Chris Colletta’s script was poignant, beauti-

The going technique is to go with a really great script and get a really great cast. You have to shoot your scenes as written because you need all the story points. Chris Colletta’s script was wonderful and there was no need to embellish it. You happen to have some of the greatest improvisers in the nation of America. You take the script and shoot the scenes and then you say “Let’s f— around,” and you end up with a handful of gold nuggets that you’d be crazy not to use.

ful and heartfelt, but also had a terrific sense of humour. It often happens with Megan and I: One of us gets a job on something and the producers will say, “Can we get your spouse interested in this?” If one of us loves the script, the other is happy to jump on board, too. It also affords us the opportunity instead of spending two weeks apart while out in Cleveland, we’re there together and having fun working on it together. There are a lot of perks to it.

Quality over quantity

Rob Zombie more alive than ever with new horror movie, album release, novel Interview. 48-year-old Zombie talks about his music, movies, and whether he’ll ever bring his sound and vision to the Broadway stage It’s becoming harder and harder to define Rob Zombie. The theatrical rocker who began his career with the ’80s shock-rock band White Zombie has reinvented himself as a contemporary horror film master with new classics like House of 1000 Corpses and the recently released, The Lords of Salem. And when the latter became the victim of budgetary constraints, Zombie turned to the written word for a more elaborate account of his witches’ tale in a novel version of The Lords of Salem released in March. Zombie then turned his attention back to music with his fifth studio album, Venomous Rat Regeneration Vendor. Released last month, he plans to support the record with a summer tour of the states, and an appearance at the Rock in Rio Festival in Brazil. Zombie will switch gears again as he tackles mainstream fare with The Broad Street Bullies, a movie that covers the aggressive nature of the Philadelphia Flyers and their assault on the NHL culminating with back-to-back Stanley Cup wins in the 1970’s. Zombie will write, produce, and direct the film. How hard was it to transition from producing a movie to

overseas. Any idea why? I read this quote from Woody Allen and he was referring to the way Euro-

recording an album? The record was done at that point but what I did was I finished Lords of Salem, I finished editing this movie in a barn, stripped the editing bay out, and moved the recording studio in. Went right into recording the record and just stayed away from California where we normally would record. We were out in the sticks. Stayed there for a couple months and this is the record we made and much like Lords of Salem in a sense, even though the projects aren’t connected, I feel they both have the same free spirit of, like, not worrying about you know, ‘Oh, is this what anybody expects? Is this what anybody wants?’ I always feel when you think that way that’s usually when you do the best stuff because ...you’re not concerned. Your movies and music have a lot of fans here, but it seems you’re appreciated more

peans have embraced cinema compared to Americans where in America you’re only as good as your last thing is the way that they’ll look at you, whereas in Europe you’re only as good as your best thing. So, if the best thing you did was 20 years ago they’ll still treat you like that’s where you’re at. It seems like that’s just a different thought process. Americans are more like, ‘What’s new? What’s the next thing?’

There’s apparently much more to you than meets the eye. Music, horror movies, now a sports history flick. Do you have any plans to do a Broadway musical? At one point I started making a few moves to get it going. I really thought my first film, House of 1000 Corpses, could work as a Broadway musical because it has those elements of ridiculousness that could translate to the stage of somewhere between Hairspray and Rocky Horror Picture Show. I look at Broadway the way I do Las Vegas and I used to go to Las Vegas and it always said Sammy Davis Jr. on the marquee and now it says Motley Crue. Just like you come to Broadway and you used to always see Annie Get Your Gun and now it says SpiderMan. It’s like the crowds just change and I feel like soon, maybe in 10 years or 20 years, there will be a group of people that now are bringing their kids to Broadway like ‘Oh, House of 1000 Corpses musical. Let’s go see that.’

Hemsworth’s bros pushed for breakup After weeks of breakup rumours, Miley Cyrus and fiancé Liam Hemsworth have reportedly called it quits, according to Us Weekly. “They are definitely over,” a source says.

David Beckham

The split was apparently precipitated by Hemsworth’s older brothers, Chris and Luke, staging an intervention about his love life in April. Cyrus and Hemsworth have been engaged since July.

Grill it like Beckham

With his days playing soccer behind him, David Beckham is clearly on the lookout for new ways to spend his time. One way, as it turns out, is teaming with pal Gordon Ramsay to open a sports bar and grill in the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas, according to the Sun. “The Strip has never seen such fierce competition for food, but Gordon’s places are full seven nights a week,” a

source tells the newspaper. “When you add David Beckham’s global status into the mix it has the potential to be the most talked about restaurant in Vegas.” But not so fast, everybody. Beckham’s rep insists that the rumours of the Vegas joint venture are completely unfounded, though they are opening a London restaurant, Union Street Cafe, in September.

Slice of pizza? Make it so

If Patrick Stewart’s Twitter account is to be believed, the X-Men star has never had a slice of pizza — until now. Stewart posted a photo of himself indulging in some of New York’s finest, along with the caption, “My first ever pizza ‘slice.’ Please note the authentic NY fold.”

It is curious, of course, that he put slice in quotes. A followup tweet by Stewart to offer clarification actually didn’t offer much clarification. “To clarify,” he wrote, “I’ve never had a ‘slice.’” Well, the important thing is he has now.

Settle down Twihards — Rob and Katy just friends Robert Pattinson has been leaning a lot on pal Katy Perry in the wake of his split from Kristen Stewart — so much so that it’s beginning to turn heads. But sources insist to E! News that their pairing is strictly platonic. “Nothing is going on be-

tween Rob and Katy. They are just super-good friends. There is nothing romantic about it,” a source says. “Rob and Katy are just very similar people and she adores him, as a friend, and she just wants to be there for him as a mate.” As for Pattinson’s relationship coming to an end, the Twilight star is reportedly taking it in stride. “Rob is doing fine since the breakup,” the source adds. “He is not particularly cut up about it or anything. He is doing just fine.”

Good nutrition for man’s best friend Healthy diet. Select high-quality, reputable commercial food for your canine companion

How much is too much? “If dog food is formulated by a reputable company, you can follow the guidelines on the packaging,” said Dr. Donna Curtin, a board member with the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association. “Dog food companies have done feeding trials to ensure they know how much you should be giving your dog.” However, consider such things as your dog’s age and lifestyle — if your pet is sedentary or older it may not need as much food.

It’s difficult watching your dog woefully begging for a few of your table scraps. While it might be tempting to scrape your plate into Fido’s bowl, is it really a good idea? “Dogs have distinct nutritional needs, different from humans,” said Dr. Donna Curtin, a board member with the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association and a veterinarian with a specific expertise and interest in dog nutrition. “Studies show that after two or three months of eating food that is not specifically prepared or formulated for dogs, they become nutrient deficient.” In order to ensure your dog enjoys a healthy diet, here are a few things you should be considering when feeding your canine companion.

scraps or dog foods that are not optimally formulated to meet a dog’s nutritional needs are not the best choices. “Select a high-quality, reputable,

commercial food for your dog,” Curtin said. “They’re formulated to ensure your dog receives all the valuable nutrients he can absorb.”

Hard and soft foods are both good for your pet. According to Curtin, “both are good, and if your dog learns to eat both then neither will be strange

or foreign.” Some dog owners worry that canned food isn’t good for their dog’s teeth, but Curtin says otherwise. “Canned food doesn’t cause

Select a diet specific to your pet’s needs. Pick a formulation that works best for your dog’s needs. “Work with your veterinarian to determine the best formulation for your dog based on his specific age, breed and health concerns,” Curtin said.

Feeding time. Don’t let Rover go overboard Feeding your dog should be simple, so here are some easy ways you can optimize your pet’s diet and lifestyle. Don’t leave the food down all the time. Just feed your dog at their specific feeding time. “Dogs won’t self-regulate, which means they can end up eating too much and becoming obese,” said Dr. Donna Curtin, an Ontario Veterinary Medical Association board member and veterinarian with a specific expertise and interest in dog nutrition. Keep the water bowl clean. It’s vital that your dog always has a ready supply of clean water. Be sure to top it up after your dog has been active or spent time outside in the summer heat. “This is especially true for little dogs, because it dilutes their urine and makes them less prone to urinary crystals, which form together to make bladder

Get out and walk, throw a ball or play a game of soccer together. “It’s great pet bonding time, too,” Curtin said. And keeping your dog active means you are exercising, too, which benefits you both.

Rejoice apple lovers, for I predict this will be the summer of cider. It’s been a long time coming in Canada. You’d think that as an appleproducing country, fermented apple juice would be a hot commodity. But unlike our drinking compatriots in Europe, we’ve relegated it to second tier beverage status. You don’t have to be a Coronation Street fan to know Brits enjoy a pint of the thirst-quenching stuff — it’s an on-tap standard at pubs across the U.K. Since they are both easy-drinkers, I’ve no doubt that there’s a correlation between the exploding craft beer industry and the way consumers are embracing the wave of specialty cider hitting our shores. Foundry Golden Cider (500 ml, $3 to $3.95) is a tasty place to start. Classically English, it offers a dry, crisp apple fruit flavour with a touch of effervescence that makes it a great seasonal food companion (think anything grilled). Don’t let global brands distract you from the many ciders being produced in your own backyard. This is one trend making it easy to drink local. PRICES REFLECT THE RANGE ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

Former French Open champ upset in 2nd round Interrupted by a rain delay, 2011 French Open champion Li Na lost to American Bethanie Mattek-Sands 5-7, 6-3, 6-2 in the second round at Roland Garros on Thursday. Following the second delay of the match, MattekSands won seven consecutive games to take a 5-love lead in the final set. She served out the victory with the sun shining and rain falling. Li was seeded sixth. Since winning her lone major title, she has lost in the first or second round at four of the eight Grand Slams. Mattek-Sands, ranked 67th, matched her best showing at Roland Garros. She failed to qualify for the Australian Open in January and arrived in Paris with a 10-8 record this year. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Ex-NFLer learning to run 3-down game CFL. Max Hall one of three candidates for backup QB position behind Buck Pierce Max Hall is quick study. He’s a CFL rookie but it hasn’t taken the former NFL player long to understand the importance of the quarterback in Canadian football as he tries to crack the Winnipeg Blue Bombers roster as a backup to starter Buck Pierce. “I’m not saying he’s not important in the NFL because he obviously is,” Hall said Thursday. “But there’s a little more emphasis on him in the CFL.” The former BYU star played six games for the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals as an undrafted free agent in 2010 but spent last season coaching at his alma mater. But that’s also where Bombers offensive co-ordinator Gary Crowton coached from 2001-04. Hall said his biggest adjustment in Canadian football is dealing with one less down. “The key is having three downs instead of four, that’s the biggest difference,” Hall said. “Now you don’t have that one down in there to have an incomplete pass or to get stuffed on a run. “Every single down you need to get positive yards and you need to put yourself in a situation on second down to convert. That’s the biggest difference and that’s why you must have a quarterback who’s smart, who can take care of the football and go to the right spot.”

Both Hall and Chase Clement, the other new quarterback at rookie camp this week, believe they have what it takes to play in the CFL. The Bombers are giving Hall and Clement as well as current backup Justin Goltz plenty of chances to prove themselves. Coach Tim Burke says all are getting equal time in practice. But that will change Sunday when training camp opens and Pierce and Goltz will likely start to get more reps as the team focuses on game preparations. Winnipeg’s first exhibition game is June 12 at home to

Toronto before the club opens the CFL season June 27 at Investors Group Field, its new stadium, facing the Montreal Alouettes. Hall, 27, and Clement, 26, were signed after the Bombers released backups Alex Brink and Joey Elliott. Neither Brink nor Elliott impressed last season when they took over after Pierce went down with a series of injuries. The Bombers have decided to go with Pierce as their starter again. But finding a solid backup is a top priority given Pierce’s injury record.

Back in the CFL

Chase Clement is giving the CFL another shot after making a quick trip to Hamilton in 2009 and leaving after one practice. His main postcollege experience was with the United Football League where he led the Las Vegas Locomotives to a championship in 2010. • “I feel like I’m very much comparable to anybody in this league,” Clement said.

Hawks back in Presidential form “It’s not the way you want to win a series, going down three games to one,” captain Jonathan Toews said. “But to come out on top given the situation we were in three games ago, it shows the character that we have on top of the ability and the potential.... We need to use the ability and the confidence this gives us.” No team made it look easier in the regular season than the Blackhawks, who got off to a record start and captured the Presidents’ Trophy. But it’s been a different story in the playoffs. They came in looking for more after back-to-back firstround exits following their championship run in 2010 and managed just two goals in Games 2 through 4 against Detroit falling into a 3-1 hole. But Chicago came back to outscore the Red Wings 10-5 over the final three games and became the 25th team to win a series after falling behind 3-1. It was the first time a Chicago team had done it.

In case there were any doubts, the Chicago Blackhawks are showing they can be resilient as well as dominant. They made it look easy in the regular season. But they had to dig deep in the playoffs. The Blackhawks dug their way out of a 3-1 deficit in the Western Conference semifinals to take the series in seven games, beating the rival Detroit Red Wings 2-1 on Brent Seabrook’s overtime goal Wednesday night. They will now face the defending champion Los Angeles Kings in what could be another difficult series for a team eyeing its second Stanley Cup in four seasons. Game 1 of the conference finals is in Chicago on Saturday.

Blackhawks (1) vs. Kings (5)

Season series: Chicago 2-1. Playoff History: Chicago 1-0. Last meeting: Chicago 4-1 in 1974 quarter-finals. How they got here: Chicago defeated No. 8 Minnesota 4-1; defeated No. Penguins (1) vs. Bruins (4)

7 Detroit Red Wings 4-3. Los Angeles defeated No. 4 St. Louis 4-2; defeated No. 6 San Jose Sharks 4-3. Outlook: The Kings needed 44 seasons to win the cup for the first time.
