Sexual assault attempted in South Surrey

Scream scares attacker

Ocean sparks

Surrey RCMP are advising the public to be vigilant of their surroundings and potential vulnerability when alone, after a 54-yearold woman was the victim of an attempted sexual assault last week in Southmere Village Park.

Police say that at approximately 5:45 a.m. June 16 – near 16 Avenue, between 148 Street and Martin Drive – the woman was walking through the park when a man emerged from the bushes, struck her, forced her to the ground and attempted to sexually assault her.

When the victim screamed and did not submit, the man fled on foot towards the southeast.

The woman received medical attention, but was not hospitalized,

and a police team has examined the scene for evidence.

The suspect is described as Caucasian, clean-shaven and in his mid- to late-20s. He is about fivefoot-nine, with an athletic, lean build, and was wearing blue jeans and a grey or tan shirt.

An RCMP release late Friday described the attack as “an isolated incident”, but urged the public to use good judgment when they visit parks earlier and later in the day.

While police have received a “few” tips, they are still looking for more information. Anyone who has details is asked to call Surrey RCMP at 778-593-3366 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. – Alex Browne

Peace Arch Wailers entertain at Kwomais Point Park, at the first South Surrey Festival.

Ocean Park festive x2 Hannah Sutherland Staff Reporter

Wet weather didn’t dampen the spirits of local festival goers last weekend as those who braved the rain were treated to games, live entertainment and other family-friendly activities at the 12th annual Ocean Park Day. “We had a great day despite the weather,” co-ordinator Sandy Smith said. “Even starting at 10 a.m., when it was at its worst, there were families that all of a sudden appeared.

“There were people who just really wanted to come out and enjoy and explore our little community.”

The June 18 event – which had a theme of ‘Fun around every corner, celebrating youth and family’ – featured an RCMP tent, student art contest, dog wash, trade show, climbing wall, children’s play area and sidewalk entertainment.

While a few events were cancelled due to the rain – including chalk drawing, a firetruck visit and gymnastics – the main stage

carried on with its lineup of entertainers.

Performers included area talents Shelby Noble, the Oh Wells and 13-year-old 2011 Ocean Park Idol winner Alyssa Gutierrez.

“She was amazing,” Smith said of Gutierrez, noting some of the performers were younger than those seen in the past.

“What we were trying to do was have a little bit for everybody.”

The festival coincided with City of Surrey’s first annual South Surrey Festival, which was held down the street at Kwomais Point Park.

“It complements, and visitors down to the park make their way up to the Ocean Park village and vice versa,” Smith said.

Although this year’s turnout was lower due to weather, Smith said the Ocean Park Business Association-run event continues to grow.

“Every year it gets bigger. If the sun had been out, it would’ve probably been our biggest yet.”

No remorse until years later, Surrey father says

One-time rioter looks back on ’94 melee Kevin Diakiw

wash with disappointment over the Vancouver Canucks’ Game 7 loss that robbed them of the Stanley Cup, 15-year-old Ian Welch was gazing out an apartment window in the downtown core when he saw the crowd.

He and five friends headed down to the street to join the masses.

It was 1994, and Welch was about to become swept up in a Vancouver riot.

He remembers half the crowd was cheering that the Canucks made it that far into the playoffs. At the same time, a growing section of the mob was becoming increasingly aggressive, shouting out conspiracies about the NHL fixing the game. Young and impressionable, he began to believe the conspiracies, and got angry.

The crowd began kicking over garbage cans, pushing over mailboxes and throwing bottles. After each act of violence, there were cheers for the perpetrators.

“Once somebody starts it, everybody gets on board with it,” the Cloverdale resident said in an interview Friday.

“A huge cheer goes up, like a big roar, and you go, ‘yeah I wanna get one of those.’

So you break a window and you get a big cheer.”

He kept his aggression focused on inanimate objects, breaking windows, kicking over trash cans and vandalizing cars.

Down deep, he said, you know what you’re doing is wrong, but you don’t give it much thought.

“You know the difference between right and wrong, that’s ingrained,” Welch said,

but added the adrenaline rush from just being there grabbed hold of him.

“Your head is pounding, and the only thing is trying to get that adrenaline out or that anger out, so you kick something.”

He began pushing over mailboxes and

throwing the beer bottles that were strewn along the ground. He was cheered.

He broke windows and joined in with others to flip cars. More cheers.

The crowd he was with quickly grew from six to 25 people.

Welch stayed downtown for three hours, intoxicated by the energy of the crowd.

He had no regrets on the way home, the adrenaline still coursing through his veins.

He just wanted to head back downtown for more.

The police didn’t come to visit afterward, however his friend appeared on Crime Stoppers ads for a while.

He was never caught.

Welch said he felt no remorse until three years later when his first child was born.

Now Welch is 32 and his son, Cole, is 14. � see page 4

Locked-out Canadian Union of Postal Workers members hold placards and wave at passersby at Canada Post’s 24 Avenue plant Tuesday.

Labour dispute must end, says MP Russ Hiebert

Postal workers protest legislation Alex Browne Staff Reporter

The Conservative government has introduced legislation to force an end to the current Canada Post labour dispute.

Labour Minister Lisa Raitt introduced the bill Monday afternoon, noting both sides had had “ample” time to reach a settlement.

Tuesday morning, around a dozen lockedout postal workers marched from the 24 Avenue Canada Post plant to South Surrey-White Rock-Cloverdale MP Russ Hiebert’s office to lodge a protest and ask which way the MP was going to vote on the legislation.

“They’re ordering us back with the contract – it’s just an illusion of negotiation,” said union member Dave Jelley.

“No job is safe if we can be legislated back to work,” added union member Teresa Fontaine.

Aside from social assistance and pension cheques, all mail delivery has been suspended by the dispute.

Debate on the legislation – which would force both sides into binding arbitration if a settlement can’t be hammered out – was anticipated to start after Peace Arch News’ deadline Tuesday, which could mean a vote by Thursday, the

last scheduled day of the current session.

Although this development had led to speculation that mail delivery could resume as soon as Friday, Canada Post spokesperson John Caines said the timing would be hard to predict without specifics of the legislation.

Hiebert described the bill as “the way to go… a healthy way to resolve a labour dispute.”

“It’s fair and it results in a final contract,” he said in a phone interview from Ottawa Tuesday.

Hiebert said it is important to get mail services back on track.

“There are economic consequences if we don’t get the post moving, and a lot of Canadians are being inconvenienced.”

Hiebert said he is not taking a public position on the dispute, in which the Canadian Union of Postal Workers has argued Canada Post is demanding “unacceptable” rollbacks.

Due to the Conservatives’ majority in the House of Commons, the vote on the backto-work bill would be expected to pass easily, although it was unclear whether NDP MPs would seek to delay the vote through debate.

Government House leader Peter Van Loan has said the House will remain in session until

the bill is passed.

Both the NDP and the Liberals have condemned the idea of legislation to end the dispute, arguing government would be meddling in the collective bargaining process while failing to address valid pension and benefit issues raised by CUPW. The union started rotating strikes across the country June 3. Canada Post countered with an employee lockout June 15.

“We were losing up to $100 million and our customer base was eroding,” Caines said. “Our volumes were down about 50 per cent, but we were still paying full salaries. There comes a time when you have to cut your losses.”

Susan Keeping, an NDP candidate in Hiebert’s riding last month, said she has concerns over government “manipulation” of information about the strike, and urged the public to inform themselves even though there may be a legislated end to the dispute.

She said the rotating strikes had been designed to send a message to Canada Post without overly inconveniencing the public.

“This is using legislation that was not intended for that purpose to shut down negotiations,” she said.

Details of White Rock council and staff remuneration and expenses for last year have been released as part of the city’s financial statement for the year ending Dec. 31, 2010.

Shared at Monday’s finance and audit committee meeting, they show Mayor Catherine Ferguson earned $58,141 (up from $56,586 in 2009) and claimed $3,248 in expenses (a decrease from the previous year’s claim of $4,229).

Couns. Mary-Wade Anderson, Al Campbell, Helen Fathers, Doug McLean, Grant Meyer and Lynne Sinclair were each paid $27,735 (up from $26,572 in 2009).

Sinclair claimed the highest expenses of the group, $3,966 (down from $6,041 in 2009); followed by Campbell ($3,560; down from $4,134) and Fathers ($1,286; down from $5,157). Anderson claimed $789 in expenses; Meyer, $387; and McLean, $247.

The statement also discloses that Campbell’s employer, Imperial Paving Ltd., was awarded two contracts for transportation and pedestriansafety-improvement projects last year, totalling $881,932. Financial services director Sandra Kurylo notes Campbell declared a conflict of interest and excused himself when these items were addressed.

Remuneration to city staff totalled $8,911,611 for 2010.

Highest paid was city manager Peggy Clark ($194,535), followed by engineering and municipal operations director Rob Thompson ($182,883); former leisure services director Rita Clarkson ($152,084); fire Chief Phil Lemire ($146,137); and director of financial services Sandra Kurylo ($136,745).

Totals for Clark, Clarkson, Lemire and Kurylo include payouts for unused vacation and other banked time.

The staffer claiming the most in expenses was web technician Ying Lin ($6,012), followed by information services manager Chris Zota ($3,931); accounting and budgets manager Shannon Johnston ($3,229); and Clark ($3,140).

Random sampling StatsCan’s goal ďż˝ from page 1 cal affiliations are not a factor in her protest. “It wouldn’t matter which party was doing this – I would complain about it,â€? she said. “If people want to have (the long form), they should have it.â€?

The federal government raised controversy last year when it announced its intention to do away with the mandatory long form, and substitute an eightquestion census.

The more detailed information is now being gathered in a new long-form questionnaire, called the National Household Survey, which is being done as a random sampling of the population.

Statistics Canada census communications manager Peter Liang said this long-form questionnaire

is going out to some 4.5 million households, or approximately a third of the population.

While he thanked Kaur for her concerns, Liang said the best thing she could do is urge those who have received the long-form questionnaire to complete and return it. “Somebody who has done it will represent her,� he said, adding that a complex and non-discriminatory statistical sampling method has been applied to distribution of the longer form. “She would be doing a good service to the public to do that.�

Citizens demanding more detailed forms would be counterproductive, he said. “It would potentially skew the representation of the sample,� he said. “It defeats the object of ran-

dom sampling.�

But that doesn’t wash with Kaur, who noted that chief statistician Munir Sheikh resigned last year over the change in policy.

And Kaur says she mistrusts descriptions of a ‘random sample.’ “We don’t know who or why people are getting the long form.

What is it – ethnicity, gender, haircut? They say random, but random is still selected by some mathematical formula.�

Kaur said she doesn’t fear repercussions from the government for burning her census form. “I’d like to see them prosecuting a senior citizen for demanding the right to be counted properly,� she said. “Gandhi said it’s ‘our moral obligation to refuse to obey unjust laws’.�

The concept was discussed at this week’s governance and legislation committee meeting, after Coun. Lynne Sinclair suggested an earlier meeting “might be a better way to include

Sinclair noted earlier meetings are also easier for seniors to attend, and will improve efficiencies by enabling staff to explain issues to council en masse.

A need for real accountability

I

t’s payback time and the perpetrators of last week’s post-Stanley Cup mob violence should be dealt with immediately and appropriately.

But neither is likely to happen if resolving the pain and hurt of Vancouver’s notorious Game 7 riot – and the millions in resulting damages – is left up to B.C.’s overburdened court system.

Other serious cases such as domestic assaults and home invasions are already being delayed because there aren’t enough judges, according to the recent Black Press series Justice Denied, and should many of these cases come to trial, it will be months – even years – before the perpetrators do time or pay fines for their crimes.

There has to be another way to deal with the hurt and damage caused by intoxicated and crowd-maddened knuckleheads last week.

While naming and shaming may give victims and shocked witnesses a momentary feeling of empowerment, this online outpouring of grief and frustration will amount to nothing if the police and court systems don’t have the resources to deal with the aftermath.

Similarly, individuals who apologize online or in the media a safe distance from their victim are kidding themselves if they think they are actually taking responsibility for their actions.

What if, instead of just blogging their apologies, perpetrators actually sat down and faced their victims in a well-established process called restorative justice and were encouraged to make things right?

What if, instead of moaning about their loss of jobs and respect, they started to consider the victims and their needs?

What if they had to pay insurance deductibles and act as taxi drivers for those inconvenienced when their cars were overturned and torched?

What if they had to organize, pay for and clean up an event like the one they trashed?

What if the perpetrators had to work for free for one of the businesses they looted or were appointed to a city crew to clean up graffiti?

The anger being directed toward those who looted, set cars on fire and beat bystanders is understandable. But in cases where victims and perpetrators can be identified, groups such as CERA (Communities Embracing Restorative Action) should be given the job of finding a swift and meaningful resolution.

Publish the results? Why not? The public needs closure and its faith in the justice system restored, otherwise frustration will continue to mount, ratcheting up the anger, and further blackening the city’s tarnished reputation.

The “Poverty Reduction Act” contains a weasel-worded definition of poverty: insufficient money to “acquire and maintain economic self-reliance” and “facilitate integration into and participation in society.”

Does this mean a guaranteed annual income? Can people achieve “economic self-reliance” by collecting welfare? Does anyone actually believe this stuff?

If you believe unionized state monopolies are the best business model, I guess so.

I won’t elaborate on the fringe parties such as Chris Delaney’s BC First, a splinter from the BC Conservative stump.

The Green party is the only one other than the BC Liberals that looks to the future. Perhaps too far in the future. The Greens want a dramatically increased carbon tax and a transition to a “steady state” economy that doesn’t try to produce and consume more. Try eliminating poverty with that program.

I frequently get letters from people who accuse me of parroting the government’s line on issues such as the HST and poverty.

If there are political alternatives out there that make actual sense in today’s world, I’d love to hear about them. Until then, these are the choices.

Any day now, NDP Leader Adrian Dix might start to unveil the positive alternative he has promised for an election that may come this fall. That will be something to examine closely.

Right now, he’s urging you to throw that chair.

Looking for their reasons to riot Editor: The downtown riot had nothing to do with the game itself but was simply a bunch of hotheads with a lot of built-up anger inside looking for a reason to let go of their rage.

The lost game was just their excuse to do it, and a poor one at that.

The damage they caused, both mentally and financially, is inexcusable, and they should be held highly accountable for their actions or history will just repeat itself.

Most of the pictures I have seen clearly depict the people involved, so there should be no problem in prosecuting them. But one still has to wonder what their parents have been teaching them for them to become so angry and destructive.

It certainly was not do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

Cheryl Berti, White Rock

Name of the game

Why were we all so surprised at the inevitable lawlessness in Vancouver last week?

The hockey culture demands we glorify lawlessness in this so-called sport. Many refuse to come out of their denial over the fact blatant legalized violence and rage portrayed by professional hockey players desensitizes a culture to brute violence.

It’s not a family sport and parents should be wary of hockey club owners like the Canucks and what they instill in our kids. It’s an embarrassing sport that has gripped our culture and it was a shameful night for Canada, but let us never forget the Canuck club owners, coaches and their players are directly to blame for inspiring the lawlessness and violence that night.

If a man punches someone in the face in the street, they can be arrested, jailed and have a criminal record for life. But, before millions of adoring Canuck fans, players assault the opposing team and vice versa, and they are worshipped? Bizarre!

As we continue to desensitize our kids and promote a spirit of lawlessness and violence through hockey, B.C. will reap what it sows, and last week’s spectacle will become more and more common. We should expect this and not be surprised.

My question and message to the wealthy Canuck hockey club owners, coaches and players is this – are you man enough to outlaw and penalize acts of brutality and violence for the sake of the next generation from now on?

My guess is the answer is: ‘no, we have no conscience and enjoy the violence and now so do our fans, who make us rich.’

Andrew King, Surrey

You have all renewed my faith in humanity’s capacity to retain its best, even while behaving at its worst.❞ ❝

A crowd gathers in downtown Vancouver shortly after the Vancouver Canucks’ Game 7 loss to the Boston Bruins.

Canucks sullied

Lance Peverley’s column (Riot moves us one step closer to police state, June 17) is right on the mark.

How is it possible that so many people stayed around and gawked?

With this, they have given those brain-dead hoodlums the audience they craved.

It is hope that justice will prevail.

Although this seems unlikely, given our justice system. Already the water polo player thinks he can get away with his lame apology. The club suspends him – for how long?

All the upstanding people of Greater Vancouver need to stand together and see that these perpetrators get severely punished.

The worst insult is that these thugs committed their crimes wearing Canucks jerseys, thus sullying the name of the organization as well.

As for the Canucks – well done boys, you had a wonderful season and all fans enjoyed it.

Gerda Barwieck, Surrey

Costly comeuppance

Seeing over and over the images left behind from the riots, now we read about the cost from the courts and the defence lawyers the public will have to pay for.

Not only that, we face time for court cases and excuses for defence lawyers to limit punishment.

The Charter of Rights and

Freedoms, the legal profession’s religion bowing to the east each day thanking Pierre Trudeau for his financial support. It will be endless as the courts will read tarot cards to lay the charges, to be kind and not to offend – driving up the cost by claiming the limited availability of judges, sheriffs and lawyers, caused by them dragging their feet.

Suan.H. Booiman, White Rock

Lack of punishment

The Vancouver rioters should know the BC Civil Liberties Association will be looking after their interests. Even now, they are no doubt searching through the photos and films looking for evidence of “police brutality.”

Trying to tell rioting riffraff to stop their shenanigans would seem pretty pointless when everybody is shouting and nobody listening.

To protect their clients, these self-styled civil libertarians would probably like to disarm the police and have them reissued with feather dusters. They would, however, not be allowed to raise them above shoulder height as that would be classified as an “aggressive posture.”

The problem here is not the police but the lack of appropriate sentencing. A page should be taken from Singapore. On arrival at their airport, a notice board states: “Mandatory death sentence for drug smugglers.” Who cared, unless you

G. Reid, Surrey

Sunshine in the storm

Upon hearing of the Canucks’ unfortunate loss following the winner-take-all Stanley Cup final, I was disgusted – but not entirely surprised – to see the ensuing riots that ravaged the city and blackened Vancouver’s reputation I could go on to condemn the actions of those few irresponsible, drunken troublemakers; admonish those who encouraged such vile behaviour; slam the VPD for their apparent lack of preparedness in dealing with excessive crowds, etc.

But I’m not going to do that.

Enough censuring has been done by local and international communities, shared by social and news media, ad infinitum and ad nauseum, to the point where the message is clear. I paraphrase the words of an acquaintance when I say that last Wednesday, Vancouver lost not only the Stanley Cup but also its dignity.

Instead, I’m going to use what few and precious words I can to honour those who acted, and continue to act, against the damage done to both the city and its reputation.

I wholeheartedly commend those Vancouverites who – many at the risk of their own safety – rose against the rioters to defend their fair city.

I admire those who took advantage of technology to capture video proof of the perpetrators, that those responsible may be identified and rightly brought to justice. I applaud the volunteers and sanitation staff who gave their efforts to restore normalcy to an abhorrent situation.

You have all renewed my faith in humanity’s capacity to retain its best, even while behaving at its worst.

Only in the middle of a thunderstorm can you truly appreciate that little bit of sunshine that brings out the rainbow.

Break-ins reported in South Surrey and White Rock

Thieves target businesses Police in White Rock and South Surrey are on the hunt for culprits who’ve broken into businesses in both cities in recent days.

Employees of at least one Grandview Corners business spent Monday morning sweeping glass from their store’s entranceway, after thieves smashed out a front door.

The break-in at the Shoe Warehouse occurred early June 20.

Those behind it made off with the store’s till, which fortunately

was empty.

An employee at the store said Shoe Warehouse was not the only business hit.

She heard of at least one in Morgan Crossing that was also targeted.

Police were not available to comment. Anyone with information on the person or people responsible may contact Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502.

In White Rock, officers are investigating an early morning

break-in to an eye care business.

Staff Sgt. Lesli Roseberry said Horizon Vision Centre, at 15227 Thrift Ave., was targeted around 5:45 a.m. June 16, when culprits smashed a window and made off with an undetermined amount of product.

There were no suspects or witnesses.

Investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information is asked to contact the detachment at 778593-3600.

New plastic bank notes will be hitting the market this November, as the Canadian treasury ramps up action against counterfeiting.

A sneak peek of the new bills took place in Surrey Monday. The $100 bill, which will be released this November, has two transparent areas on the note.

Looking through the smaller one at a single source of light, numbers appear that correspond with the bill’s value.

The larger transparent area has a picture of the House of Commons and numbers in holographic image, which is extremely complicated to reproduce.

The $100 bill, like its predecessor, has a picture of Sir Robert Borden, the prime minister between 1911 and 1920, while two-time prime minister William Lyon Mackenzie King remains on the $50 bill.

The Augustes plan to do just that with World Gifters, which they formed in 2009 to give back to the country they left more than a decade ago.

“What we’re hoping to do is to offer what little help we can and see if we can (make) a small impact in different people’s lives,” Auguste said.

They are looking to raise at least $50,000 for the shelter at a fundraiser this weekend at People’s Church, 14455 104 Ave. The June 25 event will begin at 6 p.m., and include a dinner, prizes, auction items and speeches from both Auguste and a local dignitary.

“We are taking one step forward in our goal to support the people in Haiti,” Auguste said, noting construction of the shelter is scheduled to start by the end of July. “The whole purpose of the event is just to tell people that we are not forgetting about Haiti, to tell people that the needs are still there.”

Eventually, the society is to expand and offer additional resources to youth in need, Auguste added.

“Our goal is to have many facilities in the surrounding area of Port au Prince to keep these kids out of the busy area and give them a different life and offer them a different view of what a kid’s life should be. Right now… those kids are fending

for themselves, they’re cleaning windows, begging; they will commit any type of crime to find ways to survive, which is not a kid’s life.”

World Gifters director Dan Bue said there are other initiatives the society is looking to implement in Haiti – such as providing employment for single mothers – but the focus is currently on giving young people a chance to make something of themselves.

“That’s the first line of attack that we want to make is to help these poor, innocent children without hope or a way to change their future.”

Always the Best Value In Town!

1350 Johnston Road White Rock - 604-536-1199 SUMMER TOYS IN STOCK NOW!

Tracy Holmes photo

Louise Hutchinson plays social bridge during a tournament last week at Centennial Park Hall.

Bridge tourney raises $900 Tracy Holmes Staff Reporter

A bridge tournament organized to support locals who qualified to play bridge in the upcoming B.C. Seniors Games raised about $900, organizers say.

The June 14 tournie, held at Centennial Hall, drew competitors from as far away as Chilliwack.

“The tickets just went off the shelf so fast,” said Valerie Wilson.

Wilson said 20 people from Zone 3 – which includes communities from White Rock to Boston Bar – have qualified to play bridge in the games. Pro-

ceeds from Tuesday’s tournament will be split amongst the six who belong to the Kent Street Activity Centre, she said.

The funds will help with such costs as travel and accommodation. For White Rock’s Louise Hutchinson, this summer will be her first appearance in the Games, where she will compete in duplicate bridge.

Hutchinson, who has been playing the game for about 50 years, described it as “a really good sport.”

“Once you’re hooked, there really isn’t – I think – a better game,” she said.

Tuesday, she teamed up with Surrey’s Joyce Curran to take on Burnaby’s Lina Cheng and Paul Pu of Vancouver.

The overall tournament was won by Burnaby’s Pam and Dennis Peacock.

Wilson had originally hoped to host two fundraiser tournaments before the Games, which take place mid-August in the West Kootenays.

A second will not happen, as there is no suitable space available to hold it, she said.

Tuesday’s competition was supported by a $300 grant-in-aid from the City of White Rock.

School project aims to fund sanitation program in India

Ray Shepherd students raise water awareness Hannah Sutherland

A

Staff Reporter

procession of Ray Shepherd Elementary students carrying water bottles could be seen making their way from their 1650 136 St. school to Crescent Park late last month in an effort to raise money for those without access to clean water.

The May 20 Walk for Water was a fundraiser organized by Grade 7s involved in Me to We, an international movement that mobilizes young people to make a difference.

The students’ goal was to raise $5,000 for a water and sanitation program in India through Free the Children, Me to We’s charity partner.

“The idea was we would walk to Crescent Park with an empty water bottle, then we filled it up with the tap outside the washrooms on the soccer fields (and) walked back to the school,” Grade 7 teacher Keri Stanger said, noting the water was dumped in rain barrels in the school’s courtyard, and will be used to water plants throughout the summer.

More than 300 children took part, with students below Grade 3 walking to a park near Laronde Elementary and the rest trekking to Crescent Park at 2440 128 St. “It was a six-kilometre round trip, which was pretty similar to the kind of walks women and children make every single day in India just to get (clean) water,” Stanger said.

The school surpassed its fundraising goal, bringing in $5,905 by handing out pledge forms to family, friends and neighbours.

The accomplishment was recognized in a school assembly last week, when a Free the Children representative spoke about the program and thanked the students for contribut-

Stanger said the students showed a great interest in the campaign, which brought in everything from pennies to $100 cheques.

“The school really showed that they cared, and it’s really student-driven. The kids collected all the money and every morning they

would go around to the different classes and collect the money and they would count the money,” she said, noting the Grade 7s passed their enthusiasm onto their peers. “They really made the rest of the students in the school care about it.”

Help Your Local Heroes AND WIN BIG Every day throughout British Columbia, thousands of heroes risk their lives to help others.

Fire fighter Terry Hughes is one of those heroes – whose job it is to keep others safe, even if it means risking his own safety.

With the loyal support of more than 3,800 fire fighters across the province who volunteer their time – not to mention generous members of the public who donate – the Burn Fund offers a variety of programs to support survivors of all ages.

"Through the various programs run by the Burn Fund, we give burn survivors the ability to gain confidence and move forward through life."

As one of the largest fundraisers for the Burn Fund (www.burnfund.org), Hughes said the money raised by the Hometown Heroes Lottery provides a large and important boost to the fund's programs.

"We depend very much upon the Hometown Heroes Lottery," he said. "The funds help us to continue the good work that the Burn Fund does throughout the year, and we couldn't continue without

In April the City of White Rock hosted a two day integrated design charrette as part of the study for the Town Centre Urban Design Plan. Volunteer residents joined a larger group, consisting of representatives from various City Committees, local business interest groups, developers and Town Centre land owners.

During the charrette, they explored options for conceptual land use and building layouts, open space and streetscape improvements, green infrastructure strategies, street crosssections and conceptual diagrams/ drawing describing the ideas.

White Rock’s Department of Planning and Development Services have reviewed all the information and would like to share it with you at this Community Information Night!

The stakeholders and volunteers who attended the charrette will also be invited to the Community Information Night.

We look forward to seeing you at our Community Information Night!

THE TOUR DE WHITE ROCK PRESENTS:

FROM AN EXPERT

BODY AND MIND “THE BODY”

by Shirley Garrett, Leaps & Bounds Personal Training & Clinical Exercise Inc.

Now that you’ve been working on your fitness goals and found a routine that suits your schedule and lifestyle, you’ve probably noticed some of the changes and improvements that you expected and hoped for. Something else you’ve probably noticed: you’re not seeing the same rate of progress as you did when you began. In fact, you’re experiencing a “plateau”.

Our bodies are amazingly adaptable and when they become accustomed to a certain routine, they need a new challenge in order to progress you to your next fitness level.

The technical term to get you off your plateau is “Periodization”. This simply refers to changing your program at regular intervals or “periods” as you continue your fitness journey. In other words, “surprise” your body with small changes to the routine.

For Strength Training, you might adjust the number of repetitions per set. Or the amount of resistance you use. Changing the order in which you perform the exercises also makes a difference.

Incorporating different speed intervals can vary Cardiovascular workouts. Add hills; Change the total amount of training time.

Shirley Garrett President, Leaps & Bounds Personal Training & Clinical Exericse Inc. A certified Advanced Health & Fitness Specialist, Shirley is committed to providing you with creative and dynamic programs that will give you a fitness experience to last a lifetime.

Dr. Owen Garrett

Registered Clinical Psychologist Partner, Leaps & Bounds Personal Training & Clinical Exercise Inc. Committed to helping individuals develop the skills, resources and confidence to achieve success in their careers and personal lives. activeinsights.garrett@gmail.com

“Cross Training” is another beneficial way to not only improve your performance and fitness gains, but to avoid overuse injuries and certainly to prevent boredom. Change your activity or sport. If you walk, try hiking or cycling once a week. If you’re a runner, use a rower or an elliptical trainer in the gym. Try inline skating.

Use your imagination and try something new. Don’t let a plateau become a pitfall!

“THE MIND”

By Dr. Owen Garrett, Reg’d Clinical Psychologist, Active Insights Health Care

The moment the going begins to get tough is the moment you want to re-enlist your mind as an ally to renew your motivation and commitment to your goals. I say re-enlist because you likely had a great deal of enthusiasm and motivation when you started your training. Remember? (It wasn’t that long ago). If the going is getting tough for you, here are some hints to keep things on track: 1) You may need to acknowledge that you’re starting to make too many excuses for not exercising (this is not as easy as it sounds!).

2) Beyond any excuses it is important to know if you are overly focused on things that feel negative to you about exercising (pain, tired, etc.). This type of focus is a sure motivation killer!

3) You need to re-connect to all the reasons that got you excited about exercising in the first place. And don’t just think about the reasons. It’s more powerful to take the time to connect with the feeling/emotion/sensory side of what attracted you in the first place. Absorb these positive feelings and let them become a part of you. Practicing meditation and image/visualization exercises can help.

Lastly, it can be useful to have some outside help such as a coach/mentor/motivator. This can be your doctor, friend, personal trainer or your training buddies. These hints are only a starter kit. For more motivation, try reading an inspirational story about an athlete or anyone who has overcome adversity. Enjoy. It’s time to kick it upp a notch!

House arrest for arsonist Sheila Reynolds Black Press

The Surrey man responsible for the massive 2008 explosion that gutted a Taco Del Mar restaurant in Vancouver has been sentenced to two years house arrest.

Kamaljeet Singh Josan pleaded guilty in March to one count of arson in connection to the blast.

He was sentenced Monday in Vancouver Provincial Court to two years less a day, followed by three years probation.

In addition, he also received a 10-year firearms ban.

The Taco Del Mar explosion blew apart the Vancouver restaurant and caused more than $2 million worth of damage to the 600 block of West Broadway, including a number of other nearby businesses.

The franchise was owned by Surrey residents Harjit and Manjeet Nandha, who also owned another franchise in Delta.

Two days after the explosion, 42-year-old Manjeet’s body was found in the waters

of Howe Sound between Furry Creek and Porteau Cove. It is believed she jumped from one of the cliffs that drop into Howe Sound.

Police said they found a suicide note but refused to disclose its contents.

Manjeet’s death coincided

with a police announcement that investigators had located a suspect who was hospitalized with burns to 40 per cent of his body.

Police identified Josan as a friend of the Nandhas.

Single agency suggested for Metro Vancouver

FREE CITY EVENT

Riot reignites police debate Tom Fletcher Black Press

After watching police from as far away as Abbotsford dispatched to help restore order in downtown Vancouver during last week’s riot, people have found a new reason to support a single police agency for Metro Vancouver.

A post-riot poll of B.C. residents

by Angus Reid Public Opinion found three out of five respondents favour amalgamation of the patchwork of city police and RCMP that serves the Lower Mainland. Two thirds of people in Metro Vancouver and the rest

of B.C. believe police officers handled the situation properly once the Stanley Cup riot of 2011 broke out. And a similar majority opposed the idea that big street celebrations should be banned.

Four out of five agreed that nonlethal crowd control tools such as rubber bullets or bean bag shotguns should be an option for police.

Four out of five respondents also agreed with Vancouver Police Chief Jim Chu’s assertion that the burning and looting were sparked by a small group of people.

The poll found disagreement with one official statement. Seven

FR

ee

out of 10 respondents didn’t accept the idea that there was no way to know the crowd assembled in downtown Vancouver would become violent.

While public confidence in police remains high, the same can’t be said for the court system.

On average, respondents expect only 32 per cent of those who broke laws to be prosecuted, and half expect that one in five or fewer perpetrators will be punished.

The survey was conducted by 906 randomly selected B.C. adults, 515 of whom live in Metro Vancouver.

Peros’ script, the basis for the 2004 movie adaptation, is receiving its Canadian premiere in this production, which sustains its mood well, although playing fast and loose with some details of its time period.

A fascinating cross section of silent movie era characters’ lives intersect during one notorious weekend on board newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst’s yacht in 1924 – including Hearst’s mistress, movie actress Marion Davies and Charlie Chaplin. A mysterious death,

More emphasis on fan zones across Metro Vancouver urged

Splitting up party may have avoided riot: expert Jeff Nagel Black Press

Vancouver’s Wednesday night riot might have been averted if celebrants were steered to alternate fan zones distributed across the Lower Mainland rather than being concentrated downtown, a retired expert on sports riots argues.

“They invited 100,000 people to attend this, which I think was a big mistake,” said Gordon Russell, a social psychologist from the University of Lethbridge who now lives in B.C. He cited his past research that roughly three per cent of people who attend large sports events have a predisposition to fight or spark trouble and many of them have antisocial or psychopathic tendencies.

Russell said that means 3,000 people in the Vancouver crowd could be expected to be prone to violence and what happened should not have come as a surprise.

“I would have told them not to invite everybody to Seymour Street,” he said. “Split them up. Have five celebrations.”

Surrey and Abbotsford did have their own celebration sites, but Russell said three more in places like Richmond and other parts of Metro Vancouver could have helped, coupled with a reduced emphasis on the downtown party.

Dividing up the problem would make policing it easier, he said.

“Use sites in wide open areas, not jammed into narrow city streets,” he added.

Boaz Joseph photos

Last week’s riots could have been avoided if fan zones were scattered, says one expert.

Russell said Vancouver organizers could easily have had a different nightmare on their hands – a stampede – because of the dense concentration of revelers.

“It’s a setting for a panic when people are confined like that,” he said. “If a bomb or incendiary device goes off nearby you could have a major panic there instead of a riot.”

Scores of people have died before at European soccer stadium or concert stampedes, he said.

He said it seemed the Vancouver organizers were aiming for some sort of attendance record.

Fighters in a riot tend to be young single males who are angry, disaffected and on the outskirts of society, Russell said, but added there’s much more to it than that stereotype.

“These people feed on excitement,” he said.

“They act suddenly, without any reason and they will just explode.”

Another three to seven per cent of a crowd

typically become instigators, egging on the fighters.

About seven per cent of people pack up and leave at the first sign of violence, he said, while up to 19 per cent become “peacemakers” trying to calm or restrain rioters and the largest group – about 60 per cent – will simply stand around and watch.

An investigator who examined the 1994 Stanley Cup riots in Vancouver said key recommendations he provided then were ignored this time.

Bob Whitelaw said the failure to enforce a no-parking zone in the downtown core let fans attack parked vehicles.

He also said fans were allowed to gather in large numbers and should have been quickly dispersed and ushered out of the downtown area.

As in 1994, Whitelaw said, police seemed to be standing around and not taking preemptive action.

Not only did he do just that – and again in 2009 – he’s now got the certificate to prove he did it in record time.

Last month, Booth received notice from Guinness World Records that he officially holds the record for visiting all 30 Major League Baseball stadiums within one month, in consecutive years.

He is still waiting on another official record – for watching games in all 30 parks in just 24 days, which ❝Not too many he did in 2009. The old people can call record was 30 parks in 26 days, which was set themselves in 2008, the same year Guinness Booth tried to set the record the first time, recordbut fell just short. holders.❞ “I hope that since they Doug Booth approved me for this one, that the other one is only a matter of time,” Booth said. “But to have them verify this one, and to actually have the certificate, is very cool.

“I feel just awesome about it – not too many people can call themselves Guinness record-holders.”

Having the official record to call his own was a great reward for all the effort, hard work, planning and stress – not to mention money – that went into chasing the mark.

Now, after doing it twice, Booth said he could probably “whip up a schedule in, like, an hour.”

“You get to know what you’re doing after awhile… I’m battle-tested now,” he laughed.

Being on the road is no picnic, either, he said, whether you are planning flights, renting cars or finding a taxi, booking cheap accommodations or worrying about rain delays.

And once at the park, Booth needed to document his attendance at each game, which meant keeping all his receipts, Contributed photos getting his photo taken at the stadium, and The Guinness World Records book (left) and getting signatures from team staff members Booth’s The Fastest Thirty Ballgames. to verify his presence.

Because while some may consider watching baseball games for a month straight as something of a leisurely pursuit, Booth’s quest was anything but.

For starters, the planning alone – making

our factories are running.

“I literally handed over bags and bags of receipts and other stuff to the Guinness people,” he said.

In fact, it is the proof – the personal accounts, signatures, ticket stubs and receipts – that for a time worried Booth during his quest.

During the third day of his 2009 trip – a doubleheader between the Milwaukee Brewers and Chicago Cubs – his camera battery died and he was unable to get a photo of himself at the park. In the end, however, he cobbled together enough supporting evidence – including signed affidavits from stadium employees, a concession-stand receipt and a scratchy, cell-phone recording of the P.A. announcer – to convince the Guinness people he was � see page 32

On the team

Booth said, record aside, one of the best parts about his two journeys has been connecting with fellow “ball park chasers.”

The baseball fanatics frequently speak online, sharing stories and tips for easier travel.

“The best part is the record – it’s very cool and I’m pretty proud of it – but meeting so many people was just great,” he said.

He’s leaned on many of his new acquaintances over the past year, as he turned his experiences into a book, called The Fastest Thirty Ballgames.

His new tome – which is self-published

by Authorhouse and available at amazon.ca and www. fastestthirtyballgames. com – is part travelogue and also part guide for those who may attempt a similar whirlwind baseball trip.

For the advice portion of the book, Booth canvassed his fellow travellers at ballparkchasers.com, and two of them even have co-author credit for their contributions.

“It was a lot of work, but the whole process (of publishing the book) was just fantastic, and I really enjoyed it,” said Booth, who also published two baseballthemed works of fiction in 2008.

With his record in tow, Booth said he plans to “get back to real life for awhile” – including working his job as a courier. He has also done a few interviews in the media, on both XM satellite radio and with MLB TV’s Fan Cave.

But while he’s happy to lay low for awhile, he’s not completely ruling out another record-breaking trip.

“I was just talking to a guy who’d done all the NHL games, so I think I might go for that hockey record next,” he said.

sports Young golfer finishes strong at prestigious PGA tournament

Hadwin impresses at U.S. Open Dan Kinvig Black Press

Playing in his first major championship, it would have been understandable if Adam Hadwin had been overwhelmed by the massive scope of the U.S. Open.

To his credit, the 23-year-old Abbotsford golfer took it all in stride, and turned in a terrific performance at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, MD. On Sunday, Hadwin, whose father, Gerry, is a pro at Morgan Creek Golf and Country Club, shot a three-under 68 in the fourth round of the U.S. Open. The five-birdie, two-bogey round left him at three-over for the tournament, tied for 39th.

From a number of angles, Hadwin’s showing was a success. Only six golfers shot better than his 68 on Sunday, and he was the top finisher among the three Canadians in the U.S. Open field. He also finished ahead of such luminaries as current world No. 1 Luke Donald (+5), three-time major winner Padraig Harrington (+5), and four-time major champ Phil Mickelson (+7).

“Walking around the locker room, seeing Phil and (Retief) Goosen and (Sergio) Garcia and all those guys, it’s a very cool experience,” Hadwin said Monday. “But I feel like I handled it the proper way. I treated it like I was working there, and I got the job done.

“Those guys are No. 1 players, and they may play their best more often than I do.

But if I play my best, at least I know I can compete. And that’s pretty cool.”

Hadwin authored one moment, in particular, that was worthy of the time capsule.

On Friday, he was only able to finish 17 holes before second-round play was suspended due to darkness. He went to bed knowing he needed a birdie on his final hole – the par-5 ninth – on Saturday morning to get to four over par for the tournament and make the cut.

Hadwin did just that, hitting his third shot – a wedge from 98 yards – to within six inches for a tap-in birdie.

“I’ve been in situations like that before,

John Van Putten photo

Abbotsford golfer Adam Hadwin finished the U.S. Open with a 68 in the final round. where I have to do something like that to make the cut or place higher or something, and I haven’t gotten the job done,” he said. “So to go out there and get it done when I needed to, I was pretty pleased with myself.”

Hadwin, who should be well known to Peninsula golf fans who attended Canadian Tour events at Hazelmere Golf Course in recent years, was third in the entire field in greens in regulation, landing the ball on the dance floor 77.8 per cent of the time. In that department, he trailed only runaway winner Rory McIlroy (86.1) and defending champion Graeme McDowell (79.2).

All in all, it’s a tremendous result for the sophomore pro, who qualified for the Open through a series of local and sectional playdowns.

“It was a lot of fun doing something I’d never had the opportunity to experience before,” he said.

“The crowds are a lot of fun to play in front of, and it’s a neat experience to hear a crowd roar for you when you do something good.”

Hadwin earned $41,154 for his finish.

To put that payday into perspective, a

victory on the Canadian Tour, his usual circuit, is generally worth between $20,000 and $30,000.

The Robert Bateman Secondary grad leveraged his trip to the U.S. Open to raise awareness for a cause that’s near and dear to his heart. He pledged $100 for each birdie he made to the CHILD Foundation, a charity that supports children with intestinal and liver disorders, and challenged his fans to do likewise. Hadwin’s younger brother, Kyle, was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease when he was eight years old.

Hadwin made 14 birdies over the course of the week, and the initiative raised in the neighbourhood of $25,000.

“It’s cool to be a part of that, and to donate to a charity that my brother’s benefitted from,” Hadwin said. “I think going forward, I might do more with the CHILD Foundation. A lot of golfers are aligned with a charity of choice, and that could definitely be a charity of choice in the future.”

Hadwin, a two-time CanTour winner, returns to the circuit this week to play the Syncrude Boreal Open in Fort McMurray, Alta.

Planet Uranus helps you know how to act in all areas of your life.

Avoid fighting with others; it will bring you nothing good. Act independently in everything you do.

You feel good about yourself, especially where your creativity is concerned. You will do things that are truly fulfilling. Your loved ones have high expectations of you.

SAGITTARIUS

The Sun influences you to be warm and perceptive regarding several different situations. This week is very demanding, as your ambition requires it.

You are learning a lot at work.

Planet Jupiter favours you in your accomplishments. You are heading towards things that are completely different from everything you knew in the past.

CANCER

CAPRICORN

You have confidence in your own judgement. You see what others are living through, and this leads you to ask yourself questions about your own feelings. You are thinking about experiencing new things.

You are better able to understand what your loved ones are telling you, but this will demand much of your energy. Try to get plenty of solid rest.

You are thinking about some extraordinary and interesting things. You appreciate the tools that help you to better understand everything in your life and in the lives of others.

This week, you feel sure of yourself, and this will help you to assert your interests. Some people will understand you, some others won’t. Take care to get plenty of restful sleep.

PISCES

VIRGO

You need to distance yourself from some situations where people are not able to understand who you truly are. This is really clear to you at the moment.

Stay realistic; you might let yourself get into some situations that will not be to your advantage. Nevertheless, you have good enough judgement to avoid big problems.
