SURREY – With more than an hour to go before puck drop, crazed Canucks fans were streaming into Central City plaza to watch the Stanley Cup series opener against the Boston Bruins on a giant screen. Pat Gokey, a life-long Canucks fan, came to watch the game with her 16-year-old granddaughter, Nina. Gokey, 63, arrived at the plaza about three hours early in order to claim a pair of coveted front row seats. “I want to be close to the action,” Gokey said of the enormous 170-square-foot screen set up by the city. Gokey predicted that the

Canucks will take the Stanley Cup in six games. “It’s time to bring it home to Canada where it belongs,” she said. Samita Rosales brought her 11-year-old
son Tyson and seven-year-old daughter Liyana to the game. Rosales says she came to drink in the atmosphere and energy in the plaza. Her prediction? “For the finals, originally I was going with five because my heart can’t handle Game 7,” she said laughing. In a sea of Canucks jerseys, Rod McLean stood out with his blue mohawk. “It’s just like the Olympics,” McLean said of the festive atmosphere. As for the series, McLean predicts the Canucks will take it in five games, “that way we can actually have the party on home ice.” Game 2 of the Cup final goes Saturday.

Elderly man hears murder verdict today An elderly Surrey man who stabbed his wife 126 times was expected to find out this morning if he’s guilty of murder. Justice Ian Josephson was scheduled to reveal his decision in B.C. Supreme Court in New Westminster. Sebastiano Damin was 74 when he stabbed his wife of 11 years, 69-year-old Maria Catroppa, inside the couple’s gated Monta Rosa townhouse in Fleetwood on Nov. 24, 2009. During the trial, the court heard that the couple would argue because Damin didn’t want to be left alone, or for his wife to leave the house. Check the Now’s website at thenownewspaper.com to find out what happened in court today.

Strike notice served
Surrey social worker strike would be ‘strategic’ Tom Zytaruk
Now staff twitter@tomzytaruk
SURREY – Some 3,000 Surrey social workers may soon be involved in strike action in one form or another after a strong majority of more than 15,000 frontline community social services workers throughout the province voted this week to go on strike. Of those 15,000, 85 per cent who work in community living and 77 per cent in general services gave their bargaining committee a strike mandate this week following more than 18 months of contract negotiations that eventually broke down on March 30. Bargaining association chairman James Cavalluzzo said 72-hour strike notice was served Wednesday concerning a ban on overtime work but this won’t affect Surrey yet. But early next week 72-hour notice will be served on
A lot of the work we do would be deemed essential. We make sure the clients remain safe and healthy. Possabilities Community Resources in Surrey, and later on Surrey’s Archus Community Resources in Whalley. Cavalluzzo said the Labour Relations Board is expected to set essential service levels next week. Strike action, if any, will be “strategic” rather than seeing social workers stop working en masse. “A lot of the work we do would be deemed essential,” Cavalluzzo said. “We make sure the clients remain safe and healthy.” Layoffs, job security and a “chronic”
recruitment and retention problem are at issue, Cavalluzzo said. “This seriously impacts the quality of care and support we are able to provide to some of our most vulnerable citizens.” He said the strike vote comes at a time of “deepening crisis in community social services. We are seeing group home closures, cutbacks in agencies that serve women in crisis, families, people with disabilities, children with special needs and many others who rely on these community-based services.” The Community Social Services Bargaining Association, or CSSBA, includes nine unions that represent social workers who are employed by 220 agencies across B.C. The B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union (BCGEU) is the leading union in the sector, with more than 10,000 members.

Surrey man charged after sword play SURREY – A Surrey man accused of waving a sword at people on the corner of a busy Vancouver intersection Monday is facing charges and a psych assessment. Vancouver police arrested Paramveer Singh Rarru, 23, at the corner of Burrard and West Georgia, at about 1:30 p.m. Const. Lindsey Houghton said VPD officers tackled him as he was running toward a crowd with his three-foot-long curved sword. Houghton said this happened “after attempts to gain control of the man with the Arwen and Taser were unsuccessful.” A Taser is a powerful electronic stun gun and an Arwen is a device that fires rubber balls. “It’s like getting hit with a baseball fast pitch,” Houghton said of the Arwen. Rarru has been charged with one count of possession of a dangerous weapon.

Surrey election
Residents now able to vote Police want to find and honour hero nurse at any city polling station NORTH DELTA - Delta police want to honour a nurse who helped save a young boy who was choking on candy. Trouble is, they have to find her first. A family from Abbotsford had been driving through North Delta on Feb. 26 when one of the young couple’s three children began choking on a candy. They pulled their car over to the curb at 72nd Avenue near York Place and tried to help their 18-month-old son while a passerby called 911. As luck had it, an off-duty Delta constable, Aaron Hill, had also been driving by and stopped to help the boy, who by now was semi-conscious and struggling to breathe. A crowd gathered, from it emerged a nurse who helped Hill clear the child’s airway and performed CPR. Paramedics whisked the boy over to Surrey Memorial Hospital, where he was treated and recovered. “It is believed the child may have died

had it not been for the heroics of Constable Hill and the nurse that assisted him,” said Acting Sgt. Paul Eisenzimmer. But Delta police don’t know the nurse’s name. They hope she’ll read this and call the department at 604-946-4411. The clock is ticking.

It is believed the child may have died had it not been for the heroics of Constable Hill and the nurse that assisted him. “She qualifies for a citizens’ award from the DPD and may qualify for others,” Eisenzimmer said. “The applications for many of these end soon. “Many people tend to shrug off heroic behaviour, as if it’s commonplace,” he added. “It’s not. If you know who this lady is, please encourage her to call.”

SURREY – It will be easier to vote in this November’s civic election in Surrey. When you cast your ballot Nov. 19, you won’t have to worry about getting to the right polling station in time – you’ll be able to vote at any polling station in the city. To make it easier for people to vote, the city will introduce an electronic voters list and eliminate the previous 74 voting divisions in favour of one municipal voting division for the entire city, which means that voters will be able to vote at any voting location in the city. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts said Tuesday the change is aimed at encouraging more city residents to vote by making the process simpler. “Typically the voter turnout for elections is significantly low, and I think when you give people the opportunity and make it easier for them, they’re apt to go,” Watts said. Others show up to vote but get

viable in the service station setting,” Reid said. City staff will be preparing a report for council before it takes further action. Watts said the council’s latest step builds on Surrey’s strategy to reduce its carbon footprint. Watts noted that Surrey was the first city in Canada to have its own hydrogen fueling station, with more on the way. As well, the parking lot at the new city hall slated for construction in Whalley will come equipped with electric vehicle rechargers. The city has 21 vehicles that run on alternate fuels, some are hybrids and others use hydrogen.

SURREY – Surrey has taken the first step in requiring all new service stations to provide alternative fuels of the future. City council passed a motion at Monday’s council meeting directing staff to explore the idea of compelling new service stations to provide at least one alternative fuel source such as hydrogen, natural gas or electric car charger, on top of conventional gas, diesel and propane. Mayor Dianne Watts said Tuesday the city wants to lead the way by encouraging companies to build alternative fuel infrastructure. She also said the city wants to keep in step with the changing automotive industry, which is increasingly developing and producing eco-friendly and electric cars. “We want to make sure that the

DELTA – The Tsawwassen First Nation isn’t involved in a lawsuit against the South Fraser Perimeter Road, according to a First Nation official. The TFN government took steps to publicly distance itself from the lawsuit filed recently by one of its members, Bertha Williams, who wants to halt construction, claiming it would disturb sacred burial sites. Williams and William Burnstick of the Cree Sioux First Nation filed the civil suit in Vancouver Supreme Court against the minister of transportation and infrastructure, the minister of environment and the minister of forests, lands and natural resource operations. They claim the new road would “go through a number of burial sites that are of spiritual and sacred significance.” The area near River Road has a site referred to as St. Mungo’s, which a government archeology and environmental assessment report stated contained human
remains. TFN lands and natural resource manager Andrew Bak said his First Nation had a few concerns but they have been addressed. “It’s a tremendously large and complex site of great antiquity and we wanted to make sure we had a hand in mitigating any potential impacts on the site, and we’ve had some great co-operation from the province,” Bak said. “We went one step further during our treaty negotiations to make sure that site would be given all the protection it’s entitled to under the existing provincial legislation by asking the province of B.C. to designate it as a provincial heritage site, and they’ve done that.” The TFN notes it continues to work with Gateway and the government on all aspects of the SFPR, including ongoing archaeological and environmental matters. “Projects of this size and scope are always a little but fluid and they need to be because we don’t know as much as we would like to about the archeological record. So we’ve been very fortunate to participate in a very meaningful way,” added Bak.

Parents: Beware of party time A
s schools arrive at their annual completion date and youngsters get itchy for things to do when classrooms are closed, this is a good time to remind folks of an incident that occurred in Chilliwack – too close to home to be ignored – a short time ago. A man was arrested after hosting a party with underage children, and providing them with alcohol. A 15-year-old girl went to police with allegations that she was sexually assaulted by a 32-year-old man who was the host of such a party. “We really want to encourage parents to know where their kids are and who they are with,” said Const. Tracy Wolbeck. “It’s equally important that teens recognize the dangers out there, and make good decisions.” It probably comes as no surprise that police have reason to believe there have been other parties where underage youth were invited or were allowed to attend, hosted by older men who provided them with alcohol. The fact that no formal charge was initially laid in the alleged incident points out the dangers to everyone
involved in such parties. Advantage can be taken of impressionable youngsters – while would-be hosts of such illicit parties put themselves at risk of accusations that could compound their already significant liability for illegally influencing minors. But it’s those impressionable teens – many of them looking for opportunities to party at this time of year – about whom we are most concerned. And parental awareness is key to their safety. Many party invitations or call-outs come across electronic media and social networking sites and applications these days. Monitoring your kids’ telephone and computer activity isn’t about being nosy or intrusive, it’s about applying adult discretion where youthful inexperience can leave your young ones vulnerable. You could also try an old-fashioned method of keeping your kids safe: talk to them. In the old days, some parents even enjoyed the exercise. Here are a few pointers to keep in mind when you or your family members are online:
Education: Educate yourself about the internet and what your child is doing on the internet. Computer placement: Place internet connected computers and web cams in high traffic areas such as a kitchen or living room. Online guidelines: Create an age appropriate, online safety agreement with your family and post it at each connected computer terminal. Ask your internet service provider (ISP) what parental control software it offers, and check your local computer store for filtering and blocking software. Privacy: Read a website’s privacy policy before providing personal information. Check your
privacy settings to ensure you are not sharing more information than you want. Avoid giving out identifying information: Choose an online nickname or alias; don’t provide personal information such as birth dates, home address, school name or phone numbers; occasionally change your password, using words and numbers that don’t give away personal information. Think b4u click: Digital images and videos posted online are permanent and can quickly and widely be shared through connected mobile phones, handheld gaming devices, and computers. Social networking sites
and blogging are hugely popular with social media tools such as Facebook. My Space, MSN Messenger and Twitter making it easier to stay in touch and keep abreast of the latest information. Most social networking and blogging sites have video sharing capabilities built into their sites. Photo tip: If you choose

Women in music Ward system better for Surrey take big step back Not mayor’s duty ViewPoint Harvinder Sandhu
W
hat’s with show business and the female gender? Women are constantly parading around halfnaked to sell their music. If you watch any music video station, you will have seen many a video where a female singer is dancing around in skimpy outfits and gyrating about. I remember seeing a Britney Spears video in the early 2000s. I was at an acquaintance’s place where her five-year-old was enthralled and dancing along with Britney. Yup, the little girl was trying to imitate the moves – moves no child should be watching, let alone trying to emulate. This past week, I watched the season finalé of American Idol. Two things stood out to me. The first was Beyoncé’s performance. All I could focus on was the fact that I could see her panties. Yes, her panties was part of the outfit, but did she really need to bend with legs spread apart for me to enjoy her song on this family television show? The second thing that stood out was the young Asian contestant who got voted off weeks ago. This girl is 15 and throughout her run for the big prize, she dressed conservatively, her moves were understated, in fact, non-sexual. Watching her you could sense she was uncomfortable with sexualized moves. But in the finale, dancing along with Beyoncé, she was now gyrating her backside the way most females do in music videos – and in the shortest dress she has worn so far. It is sad this young woman is being taught that to make it big, you’ve got
to shake it. Her beautiful, strong voice didn’t seem to be enough for show business. Then there’s Lady Gaga, the “new Madonna.” At least when Madonna first came out with her outrageous costumes and sex book, there was some noise made by conservatives. This time, it seems to be quietly accepted. The same now goes for Bollywood movies. A song comes up and the girl is not only scantily clad, but is also in the throes of a dance that is very suggestive. Movies from the old country used to be very conservative, not even allowing an on-screen kiss. But that seems to be part of the past. And by the way, why aren’t men subjected to the same ideals? Why do we not see them half naked, shaking their booty trying to sell their music? They don’t seem to need to “put out” the way their female colleagues need to. This, when we are supposed to be enlightened and say we respect women. Harvinder Sandhu’s columns appear weekly in the Now.
The Editor, I have lived in Surrey for many, many years. In 1965, Reeve Harvey had a council of 10 to help him run the municipality. In 1970, Bill Vander Zalm had 11 aldermen to assist him. When we reached 1993, Surrey became a city and all the aldermen became councillors. Today, we have a mayor and eight councillors, plus a couple of managers, city clerks, deputies and assistants. And if you hadn’t noticed, the population of Surrey has mushroomed and there has been a building boom that has eaten up most of the spaces that were here when I arrived. Have you ever tried to contact a councillor about something in your area – if indeed you know where you live? (I tell people I live in Newton but I have to vote as a Port Kells resident.) We are such a large city. Wouldn’t it be sensible to go back to something like the ward system, where one councillor represented one area and we redesigned our maps and knew who to talk with about issues in our area? One councillor I finally nailed down said there were as many as 5,000 emails coming in – no wonder I was ignored. With our city hall soon moving downtown, what better time to reorganize the electoral boundaries and get a few more councillors on board? Sheila Gair, Surrey

The Editor, Re: “Watts should work for young job-seekers,” the Now letters, May 19. I would like to share my thoughts with letter writer Jessica Croft regarding her expectations for a job from Mayor Dianne Watts. Jessica, it is not the mayor’s responsibility to get you the experience you are obviously lacking. Like all students, you need to recognize that you are a student and just like your schooling, you start at kindergarten and slowly work your way through the grades, learning as you go. The employment world works much in the same way. You start by serving burgers in places like McDonalds, Wendy’s or by serving coffee at Tim Hortons or Starbucks. You must work hard to prove your worth to these employers and if you are reliable and trustworthy, you can work your way up to a shift supervisor or manager position. Those escalating positions are recorded on your resumé under “experience.” A promotional letter from your boss at McDonalds or Wendy’s becomes your “letter of reference” to add to your resumé and before long, these things start accumulating as the experience that most employers require. Mayor Watts cannot do that for
The point is to find yourself.
you and you cannot expect her to talk anyone into hiring you unless you have proof that you have gained experience. These steps, if done with integrity, become the experience that you do not have today. Good luck and take pride in doing it yourself.

HST created jobs at my small business The Editor, We have hired 11 new employees since the HST was brought in. Our small company – IMFS International Marine Floatation Systems Inc. – and our industry suffered much under the PST. We often paid PST on top of PST, making our products more expensive to the customer, and making growth more difficult. The HST is simpler and more efficient. We are saving time and money and we are able to reinvest in our business and add new staff. When bidding on jobs, we no longer have to factor in the PST on materials and some subcontracts, and that means lower costs for our customers. The whole world is shifting to the value-added tax system. It would be a colossal mistake for B.C. to go back to the old PST. Lawrence Alder, Delta

We are pleased to announce that Surrey is now collecting mattresses for recycling.
Mattress Collection Challenges
Surrey’s Response...Recycle It!
On January 1, 2011, Metro Vancouver placed a disposal ban on mattresses as they are operationally difficult to handle and recyclable when properly disassembled. Mattresses disposed of as garbage cannot be compacted – consuming a large amount of landfill space. In addition, the springs within mattresses often become tangled in equipment causing costly repairs. Customers that bring mattresses to regional transfer stations for disposal as garbage are charged $20/unit and are limited to only four (4) mattresses per load.
While Surrey had consequently stopped collecting mattresses via the Large Item Pickup Program as a result of the Metro Vancouver imposed disposal ban, the City has developed a process to recycle old unwanted mattresses. The City of Surrey will accept mattresses and box springs via the Large Item Pickup Program at no additional cost to residents. The collected mattresses will be delivered to a mattress recycling facility where they will be segregated into different materials and shipped to remanufacturing facilities to be processed into new reusable products.
How to Arrange Collection 1. Call Emterra Environmental at 604-635-5478 2. On the day of your appointment (or the evening before), place your mattress/boxspring at your curb. Ensure that your mattress is at the curb by 7:30am. * Please note that this program is available to households that are on the City’s door-to-door waste collection program. Mattresses or box springs will count towards your annual large item pickup limit of 4 items/calendar year.

North Delta artist
Game-day ‘CANUCKcatures’ draw fans Tom Zillich
Now staff twitter@tomzillich
As a hockey fan, Cory Van Ieperen sure is drawn to the Canucks — in more ways than one. The North Delta artist has spent playoff game days at Rogers Arena drawing caricatures of fans streaming into the rink. He’s also been busy creating whimsical sketches of Canuck players in various scenes, usually related to something that’s happened during these NHL playoffs. Van Ieperen is posting his series of “CANUCKcatures” as free daily downloads from his website, corycatures.com/canucks. “I’m making them royalty-free to support the team, and have been getting great response from them,” Van Ieperen told the Now. “It’s the Canucks, so of course I want to do this.” His first CANUCKcature, of beaming goalie Roberto Luongo “saving” the Stanley Cup, got him the gig to bring ink and paper to a booth on the plaza at Rogers Arena, starting with the third-round opener against San Jose Sharks. Fans can have their likeness drawn on the pre-drawn body of a hockey player. “It doesn’t take long, because they’re quick sketches,” said Van Ieperen, who works on the venture with partner artist Ted Couling, of Cloverdale. “With the CANUCKcatures, I’m starting to build the whole team. They take only about 30 minutes to do and put up on the website.” Van Ieperen is drawing up plans to have his CANUCKcatures sold as a fundraiser for charity, possibly Canuck Place. The father of two boys can also be found rocking with Skookum, a long-established band on the local scene. This spring, the art-schooled Van Ieperen is busy with his sketching skills at dry-grad events around the region. He also does caricatures for parties, minor sports teams and corporate clients.

Upcoming Traffic Pattern Changes Beginning on June 3, and continuing for approximately one year, a number of temporary and permanent traffic pattern changes will take effect at the 160 Street Interchange in Surrey. These traffic pattern changes are required to complete the construction of the new 160 Street and 104 Avenue overpasses and to reconstruct the intersections of 160 Street and 104 Avenue to the north and south of Highway 1.

otta hand it to Allstar Weekend. Post-show Sunday night at Bell Performing Arts Centre, the four guys of the San Diegobased band stood in the lobby and posed for photos with each and every fan who wanted one — no autographs, security staff told the crowd, but what a great way to make a lasting impression with new and existing fans, the lineup of which snaked down the hall of the adjacent high school there. As for the music, the hard-working quartet plays safe, sanitized, smiley-face pop/rock — perfect first-concert fare for a good number of girls in the crowd. The only moment of “danger” was when someone in the audience shot silly string at singer Zach Porter, who didn’t appear amused by her actions (though he then graciously invited her on stage to sit on a chair for the next song).
Concert opener Done With Dolls, an all-girl foursome from Toronto, rocks some classic axes on more covers than originals. Among the borrowed songs was a note-for-note version of Pat Benatar’s defiant “Hit Me With Your Best Shot.” The young audience jammed the front of the stage, leaving semi-bored parents in seats (many of them empty) to be serenaded by the band’s take on Linda Ronstadt’s “You’re No Good,” dedicated to moms and dads in the house. Why, because we parents are no good for taking our kids to the concert, or because it’s an old, lifeless song? “Actually, the song doesn’t mean anything,” lead singer/bassist (and Britney Spears lookalike) Jordan Miller, 14, told everyone, post-song.“You guys are great!” Well, thank you, Jordan. You’re not so bad yourself, though your band should practise more and watch The Runaways band biopic (if you haven’t already) to learn a few things.
BANDS RIDE RICKSHAW
We’re not gonna take it — poor treatment from concert promoters, that is.
So says White Rock-based rock band Quartered, who celebrate the launch of a month-long tour of the Philippines at a Friday, June 10 gig at The Rickshaw Theatre in Vancouver (with Ninja Spy, Stand Down and Out Of The Ruins). Quartered’s Craig Rudder says the show has been dubbed “Rain City Throwdown,” with plans to make it an annual shindig for a rockin’ cause. “Over the past couple of years playing,” Rudder explains, “we have been tired of dealing with promoters who don’t live up to (their) title. As all bands have experienced, we too have been burned on more than one occasion. So instead of complaining about it, we have now taken matters into our own hands and started putting on our own events. The Rickshaw Theatre has been the perfect vehicle for us to create and put on our brand of live entertainment. With 30-foot projection screens and 400-person capacity, it has given us the drive and work ethic it takes to take the band to the next level.” see page 17

OMFG! FRIDAYS AT RUMORZ
Speaking of nightclubs, Rumorz at the Oasis Hotel, in Whalley, is under new management and home to the new OMFG! Friday club night, big on DJ-spun top-40, house, hip-hop and electro tunes. A re-opening party June 10 includes a barbecue bash with free hot dogs on the patio, at 10662 King George Blvd., with door prizes donated by Coastal Riders Skate Shop. The room is now controlled by a group of people that includes real estate investor Sunny Singh and club-scene movers and shakers Antonia Allan (of Dulcet Agency, also known as DJ Antonia at Vancouver’s Commodore Ballroom) and Surreyraised Sarena Strong (Olio Festival, Dulcet Agency). “There has been a significant gap in the available types of nightlife entertainment for Surrey residents,” said Strong, who apparently inherited PR skills from her father, Surrey school district’s Doug Strachan. “Surrey is a growing city with a high volume of students who deserve more options and should have to venture downtown (Vancouver) to get variety. OMFG! Fridays at Rumorz will offer the best dance music and a fun vibe that will
definitely be more fun and easier than going downtown on a Friday night.” For guest list and DJ-booking queries, contact Strong via email, sarena@ oliofestival.com.
CONCERT NEWS

ancing with the Stars finished the season with a Superbowl MVP football player winning the mirror trophy. This finale found more fans drawn to their TVs than ever before, and had more viewers than the last game between the Canucks and San Jose Sharks. Could this mean dance is attracting the attention of athletes and becoming a sensation all on its own? Or, why not take up dance now and see what happens in your life. Dance is not only a great social recreation, but an alternative way of keeping fit. But you have heard all these arguments before. The only question is, where to take lessons. Check out your parks and recreation flyers — lots of dance choices, from basic ballet for three-year-olds to ballroom and belly dance for adults. I think there is some
pole dancing out there as well. Wanting a dance studio? This is the perfect time of year to check out dance studios — and Surrey has a wealth of studios offering a variety of dance types. This is recital season, so pick a studio and go see their performance – you can learn a lot that way. Performances are at Surrey Arts Centre, Bell Centre for Performing Arts and Wheelhouse Theatre (at Earl Marriott Secondary), and some studios travel to Burnaby to Michael J. Fox Theatre. Now you will have to do some homework. Check out a few studios, and find out when and where they are holding their recitals. Be part of the audience this year, and on stage next year. It could change your life. Honest. Note that some recital dates do fall on game nights. Live performances happen only once, so put the game on PVR, or whatever technology you have. OK, I get it that not everyone is going to want to learn how to dance. Some people will spend fabulous amounts of money to secure a seat for the Stanley Cup finals. If see page 19

The arts ‹ from page 18
you can’t get these tickets, here is a semi-pricy alternative from Semiahmoo Arts. Tickets for the Artsolutely Fabulous fundraising gala are now on sale. Tickets for the evening gala (only 35 available) are $475 per couple, and that price includes appetizers, beverages, live music and a one-of-a-kind work of art valued at a minimum of $600 (although many are valued considerably higher). Ticketholders choose a random number upon arrival and have their choice of artwork based on their order in the number queue. This semi-formal dress gala evening is June
17, 6:30 p.m. start at Blue Frog Studios, 1328 Johnston Rd. (that’s 152nd Street when it is in Surrey), and you can make reservations now by emailing niamh@semiahmooarts. com, or contact the Semiahmoo Arts office at 1959 152nd St. So, to recap, for your $475 you will receive a ticket for yourself and a guest, and an original piece of art donated by a local artist (including Richard Tetrault, Jim Adams, John Butt, Nicole Carrie, Larry Tillyer, Irma Bijdemast and Sam Lam). In addition, musical entertainment, delicious hors d’oeuvres and wine will round out the evening. Here is something else to do during the playoff run for the cup: sign up for the Musical Theatre Intensive at Surrey Arts Centre; the deadline for applications has been extended to June 10. This is a fab program for young performers age 12 to 16 to get training in “triple threat” (singing, dancing and acting) from industry professionals. Nothing better than getting experience from the experienced. Led by Peter Jorgensen, the program helps talented students gain the skills, confidence and contacts necessary to continue their musical theatre education and pursue their dreams! The intensive takes place July 4-15 (Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily), and costs $495. Visit www. surrey.ca/arts for application and registration details. It won’t help the Canucks in their quest for the cup, but there are other things in life than hockey. Even this year.

arvel’s beloved X-Men have been less than super of late. After high praise and a $300-million payday under the direction of Bryan Singer, fans feared that 2006’s The Last Stand would be the last gasp for the franchise. After singling out fan favourite Wolverine with a movie all his own, filmmakers had nowhere to go but a prequel, chronicling the childhood traumas of Charles Xavier and Magneto. But purists were skeptical: could an X-Men film exist without Hugh Jackman sniffing the screen? Yes, and thank heaven for James McAvoy, the voice of reason in many a film, among them The Last King of Scotland, Atonement, Wanted and The Conspirator. For even when First Class suffers from busyness, uneven visual effects or too many mutants vying for screen time, McAvoy’s superior acting (or is it those baby blues?) draws us back in. McAvoy is the young Charles Xavier, raised in privilege, a “telepath” who
spouts theories on genetic mutation in order to pick up college co-eds. He meets Raven (Jennifer Lawrence), another mutant, and takes the girl in. Erik (Michael Fassbender) had no such luck. Torn from his parents at a Nazi concentration camp, he becomes a lab rat for the vile Sebastian Shaw (Kevin Bacon).“Genes are the key,” in both the Nazi and the mutant creeds, thus the narrative parallel. The action ping-pongs between locales, from Argentina to “covert CIA research base” as Erik goes on a global Nazi hunt, crushing foes with his power to manipulate all things metal, including dental fillings (in a scene reminiscent of Marathon Man). But Dr. Shaw eludes him, aided by the very-Bond January Jones, as Emma Frost. Erik and Charles join forces and become friends of sorts, despite their disparate game plans; one man is on a revenge mission, the other wants to forge healthy human-mutant relations. To do this, Charles cooperates with the CIA, uses his very impressive brain to hunt down other mutants, and tries to help the U.S. government avoid war with the Soviets. But will people still love them after the Cuban Missile Crisis? The answer results in a rift between the friends and the basis for the good-versus-evil mutant schism that looms large in X-Men I through III. A subtle film it’s not. Someone mentions enslavement and filmmakers cut to the black guy, and the production design team’s slavish adherence to the period means that we get all sorts of cheesy ’60s graphics and split screens,

though the result is a bit of a muddle. And what was with the last few edits? Fassbender suddenly reverts to his native Irish accent in the latter scenes, did none of ye’s notice? As is de rigueur with summer blockbusters, effects remain the biggest draw, and there is a barrage of visual effects, most of which impress. Those pining for Wolverine can take heart in a comedic cameo by Hugh Jackman, and there’s a humourous jibe at the U.S. military’s “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy. Things are best with McAvoy on screen and the friendly friction between Charles and Erik. But extraneous characters — both human and mutant — could’ve been axed from First Class’s 130-minute running time, in the name of making things less rushed and the remaining characters more resonant.

serious relationship queries ring hollow. Everyone looks irritable, no one appears to be having fun and, in the end, the only character we root for is the likable lunk played by Channing Tatum, who nails the comedy. There’s an alternate ending, deleted scenes, and a lot of footage of Kevin James cracking up in front of the camera on the disc’s special features.

In The Dilemma, Vince Vaughn plays a guy who catches his buddy’s wife having an affair.
OFF
Director Ron Howard’s segue into romantic comedy goes terribly wrong in the hands of Vince Vaughn and Kevin James, unlikable buddies in the bro-mantic comedy, The Dilemma. Vaughn does his agitated talky thing again as Ronny, a guy put on the spot when he catches his best friend’s wife (Winona Ryder) cheating. Rather than tell Nick (James) what’s going on, Ronny puts his friendship and his relationship (with an underused Jennifer Connelly) in jeopardy by inexplicably stalking the cheating wife instead. The film swings from farce to drama before we can catch a breath, making the jokes fall flat and the

f my cooking classes, Greek are the most popular, by far, and this stems from my own passion for the flavours of Greece. Almost everyone I talk to loves Greek food and has frequented their local Greek restaurants many times. People are always quick to mention their favourite ones and the best dishes served there. I joke with people all the time that to create Greek food one basically adds olive oil, garlic, lemon juice and oregano to anything, and it’s Greek. Although these may be common denominators in many Greek recipes, there’s a bit more to making good Greek food. The most important thing to remember is ingredients from the source will always taste better in the final dish. Two ingredients that always come to mind when discussing this are garlic and lemon juice. Garlic should never come from a jar. I see people in stores buying these large jars of peeled, chopped garlic in brine, and I question it. The response is usually, “It’s cheap and convenient.” Sounds like
“fast food” to me. Just because something is cheap and convenient doesn’t mean we should use it. Take any fresh-cut vegetable (or fruit, for that matter) and soak it in a jar full of brine — where does the flavour go? It leaches into the brine. So people who take a slotted spoon and add some of this garlic to a dish and say, “I’m cooking with garlic,” I respond and say, “No, you’re cooking with a residual that was once garlic, and now most of the natural flavour has gone into the brine, which you’re going to dump down the drain in a year once you have gotten through that humongous jar!” Many people also willingly pass through the produce section, walking by the lemons, on their way to the juice aisle to grab a bottle of lemon juice — again for the same “cheap and convenient” reason.

orchard in Florida or Italy, there are no bottles hanging from the trees. A reconstituted juice from concentrate will not give you the same flavour as what’s offered from a fresh lemon. Plus, you have the added bonus of reaping the aromatic and colourful zest from the outer peel to utilize as an additional ingredient or beautiful garnish. We have to remember that the term “cheap and convenient” is not a synonym for “flavour,” and if you want your Greek food — or any food — to taste better, you need to go to the source of the ingredient you are adding for optimal results.

‘Tibet Unconquered’ offers ‘new’ political solution Carolyn Cooke Now staff
As the Dalai Lama ages and the battle over Tibet’s future drags on, the need increases for a workable solution for both China and Tibet. Most Westerners have strong views on the situation, but far fewer have an appreciation for the intertwined history the two countries share. For that matter, China doesn’t even consider Tibet
to necessarily be its own country. And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Diane Wolff, an American author and noted expert on East Asia, puts forward an eloquent solution in her newest book, Tibet Unconquered: An Epic Struggle for Freedom (Palgrave MacMillan). Wolff ’s suggestion first requires an understanding of Tibet’s role and influence in China, as well as of how China came to occupy
and/or claim the lands it currently does. Surprisingly, perhaps to non-history majors, the crux of the issue lies with Ghengis Khan and his descendent Mongol Khans. It turns out they were the ones to unite the ethno-linguistic cultures of what we now recognize as China, and Tibet held a special place in the Mongols’ hearts and spiritual worldview. Wolff ’s proposal updates the
mistrust of each other and acknowledge it was in fact the northern horsemen who had the most workable plan to keep a large, ethnically varied nation together with minimal imposition from above. And regardless of that, Wolff does a fantastic job of presenting the huge scope of East Asian history in a succinct and fascinating way.
Mongol practice of ruling with “loose reins” and allows a measure of freedom and autonomy for Tibet (and by extension other areas claimed by China) within a national government’s purview. Odd as it might sound to return to the time of feared conquerors for a peaceful solution, this plan, as explained by Wolff, sounds workable. Assuming, of course, all sides can put to rest their longstanding

Armed and dangerous Seaquam’s Serena Graf is proud to carry on her school’s tradition of javelin excellence
dabbled in basketball and volleyball before settling into a groove in the assorted throwing competitions at track meets. She juggled sports for several years before choosing to train exclusively for throwing as a Grade 10 and she admits the move from a team environment to a sport based on individual results was not easy. “It was definitely a transition and there were pros and cons for me,” she said. “I had a set group of friends I had known for years in softball and that was the first sport I tried. So when I stopped playing, it felt like I was leaving a part of my childhood behind. It was emotional in the sense I was finding out more about myself — it was self-exploration and a maturing process.
Michael Booth
Now staff twitter@surreynowsports
Seaquam’s Serena Graf credits years of softball as a big reason for her success throwing the javelin, hammer and shot put at track and field meets. (Photo: SURREY NOW)
Serena Graf is used to throwing her weight— or, to be accurate, weights — around. Still only in Grade 11 at Seaquam Secondary, Graf has established herself as one of the top up-and-coming throwing talents on the provincial track and field scene. Heading into the 2011 B.C. High School Track and Field Championships in Burnaby this weekend, Graf’s résumé already includes a provincial senior girls title for the javelin (won last year) and a gold medal sweep of the three events — javelin, shot put and hammer throw — she entered in the Fraser Valleys last month. (She might well have added another gold for the discus were it not for the mandatory limit of three events per athlete). Such success at a young age might go to an athlete’s head but not Graf. For her, throwing spears and steel great distances is just part of who she is. “It was always a gut feeling for me that I was more of a thrower than a runner,” the precocious teen said. “When I first started throwing events, it just clicked right away for me. I was comfortable with it and it just felt right for me. It helped that I was a big kid, plus with softball, I had the arm strength and I could throw it really far.” Softball was her first love but she also
When I first started throwing events, it just clicked right away for me. “I miss the social aspect the most. Even though in track you have a training group, the dynamic isn’t the same. In softball, you are all working together toward a common goal but in track, you’re all working toward individual goals. There’s team support but the outcome isn’t as intertwined.” If that sounds profound coming from a 17-year-old, well, that’s just who Graf is. An honour roll student, she has a knack for being a little ahead of her time compared to other kids her age. As a Grade 8 she was already comparing potential universities she would like to attend and her maturity

led her softball teammates tag her with the nickname of “Mom.” The same maturity and focus that leads to good marks in the classroom helps her in the athletic world where her dedication and determination have led to further success. “Her focus is probably something that carries over from her educational stuff,” said Don Steen, Graf’s coach with the Richmond Kajaks track club. “She’s very realistic about her abilities, but subconsciously, she’s a heck of a competitor. She might be gracious in many ways but like a true competitor, there’s a burning desire underneath all that.” Steen added, “It’s not going to be easy this year because she’s competing against older athletes, but next year, my gosh... If she stays at it she could do some impressive things.” Seaquam is a small school but it boasts a history of outstanding track athletes, including middle distance runner Graham Wells and javelin throwers Catrina Chisholm and Signi MacNeill. Graf is aware of her
school’s gold medal past — “with our school’s history of throwers, I feel like I’m walking in their footsteps,” she said — and embraces the opportunity of adding to it. Still, she insists there is no extra pressure on her as she heads into the provincials as the defending champion in the javelin. Instead, she is determined to put forth her best effort with the ulterior goal of meeting the standard of 43.5 metres needed to qualify for the World Youth Games in France. That distance is within her personal best of 44.85m, but she must do it in competition before June 20. “I don’t feel a whole lot of pressure,” she said. “Not because I’ve won before but because I’ve found more satisfaction in the sport than in the competition itself. When I’m competing, I feel at peace with myself — an overwhelming sense that I’m where I’m supposed to be, win or lose. There’s the drive to compete and win in me, but not the pressure.” This weekend, that reasoned approach could make her one of the calmest gold medalists at the provincials.
The Surrey Storm 97A softball team put aside their sorrow and finished second at the Canadian Pride & Power Tournament at Cloverdale Athletic Park on the Victoria Day long weekend. The Storm dedicated the tournament to the memory of their assistant coach, Kassandra Kaulius, who died in a tragic car accident earlier in the month. The Storm posted a 4-1 record in roundrobin play to finish second in their pool. When playoffs began, Surrey beat the Victoria Devils 97 5-4 in the quarter-finals and then doubled up on Fusion 97 4-2 to advance to the championship. Surrey’s winning ways came to an end in the final against the Delta Heat 97.
Hawks coach returns B.C. Hockey has announced the Major Midget League head coaches for the upcoming 2011-12 season.
There will be no change behind the bench for the Valley West Hawks (Surrey, Langley and Cloverdale area) as Rob Rogers returns for a second year. In 2010-2011, Rogers guided the Hawks to a third place finish, but fell to the Cariboo Cougars in the semifinals of the league playoffs.
Teen signs on with Warner White Rock Christian Academy student Carly Barker has signed a letter of intent to play volleyball at Warner College in Portland, Oregon. Barker has played on the WRCA varsity squad for the past three seasons. In 2010 the Warriors placed fifth at the provincials where she was named to the second all-star team after winning MVP honours at the Fraser Valley championships.

Call Dave 778-996-0369
Aries March 21 - April 19: These weeks are easy but busy, filled with messages, paperwork, details and trips. Romance, pleasure, beauty and a winning streak visit Sunday to Tuesday morning – but don’t gamble with your income or possessions Monday p.m. Work and health concerns call Tuesday noon to early Thursday – plunge in early; your steady approach could trigger a lucky “wind at your back” influence, a bit of cosmic aid. Relationships start sweetly Thursday p.m., but they turn to confusion or misunderstanding this night, then right themselves (perhaps turning to love!) by Friday p.m. Plan accordingly. Taurus April 20-May 20: The emphasis lies on earnings, possessions, rote learning and sensuality. Your energy and charisma levels are good, your effectiveness high. And a cheerfulness about your monetary position in the world is stealing over you. In the 12 months ahead, you can make some excellent investment or financial decisions,can achieve physical gratification, and a partner’s income could improve, perhaps immensely! Your only “scourge” will be the tendency to put on weight (or to be arrogant due to your success). Be restful Sunday/Monday. Romance, pleasure arrive Tuesday p.m. to Thursday. Gemini May 21-June 20: Your energy, charisma and effectiveness are tops! Someone who is not free to dally might “befriend” you (quite recently, now or soon) – this could turn into a year-long affair, making you desire marriage. But it’s doomed to disappoint, so remain honest, reject triangles. You will also be befriended by someone “unromantically” – or by an agency. You will be welcomed and aided by governments this year ahead. Start important projects this week. Sunday/Monday bring travel, messaging. Land, home succeed Tuesday/Wednesday. Romance “up and down” Thursday-Saturday – chase it Friday p.m.
Cancer June 21-July 22: You’re in a quiet, lowenergy month, but your hopes remain high, and friends still call – those hopes and friends are going to swell over the 12 months ahead, until your popularity reaches a 13-year peak, and your hopes burst into dreams fulfilled! But for now, accept a few weeks of quietude and recuperation. Meditate, contemplate and plan. Be charitable, spiritual, fulfill your obligations and deal with government agencies. Chase money Sunday/Monday. (Buy technology Sunday.) Paperwork, travel and messaging arise Tuesday to Thursday. Home, garden, kids Thursday onward. Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Wishes come true this week and next.You’re still dealing with pressures on career, status and ambition fronts. Here, favour towards you continues until Thursday, but impatience and a critical attitude continue until June 20. Be diplomatic and eager to please, because the 12 months ahead can boost your career and status in the world in a lucky way – you could rise to a peak you’ve never achieved before! This influence can also expand problems – so don’t create any with impatience, illwill or (especially) unethical or illegal speech/action now to June 20. All’s good! Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: The accent lies on career, ambitions, prestige relationships and your status in the community, world. Generally all is well here, and productive, especially Tuesday and Friday (work or schmooze late!) and June 16/17. But your mind continues to contemplate bigger horizons, religious ones, or foreign climes, or intellectual or love matters. These have turned lucky, and will expand luckily over the twelve months ahead. But short-term (until June 20) continue to avoid legal hassles, especially over sexual situations, debt and investments. You succeed midweek! Chase money Friday.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The emphasis lies on legalities, religion, far travel, culture (rituals) higher education, broadmindedness, compassion and love. Lingering “threads” (vines) of recent research, sexual (perhaps verboten) attractions, investments, finances and debt, deep health concerns, and lifestyle changes still creep around you. Neither cut these off nor deeply commit to them yet. There is a “partner” in there: but perhaps an illicit one. This whole zone has very recently turned lucky, and will expand or present you with providential opportunities over the twelve months ahead. Stay honest! Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: The accent lies on depths, mysteries, research, sexual desires, subconscious urges, health diagnosis, dream analysis and occultism, large finances and lifestyle changes. It’s an “all or nothing” time – you either commit, or break off. If hesitating about commitment to someone who’s been around awhile, remember that your true love decade has just begun. A bird in the hand might not be worth two in the bush. Partnerships of all kinds, business and love, meet huge luck in the 12 months ahead – that luck just began last Saturday. Study your future Tuesday p.m. to Thursday a.m. Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: The emphasis lies on relationships, opportunities and opposition, love and war. Everything’s above board – friends and enemies are open, honest. Relocation might occupy your thoughts – the best, most fortunate time in a quarter-century for this will occur from June 2012 to July 2013 – why rush it? Some “trailing tasks” are a hold-over from May: just complete them. Realize your work and duties will expand greatly over the 12 months ahead – with commensurate rewards. Sunday/Monday are sweet, gentle. Be ambitious midweek. Your hopes, popularity rise Thursday p.m. onward!
June 5 - 11, 2011 Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: This week and next pile work on your shoulders – and health, diet concerns. That’s OK, nothing you can’t handle; all will flow fairly smoothly. (Take care in both areas Monday and Thursday nights.) Your luck is starting to grow in romantic, creative, pleasurable, speculative and child-oriented zones – it will last until summer 2012. You might neither see nor sense this for a long while, then suddenly, an event occurs. Be open, ready – and innocent enough to believe! Sunday/Monday bring secrets and money decisions. Midweek’s gentle, wise. Be ambitious Thursday night onward! Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: The focus lies on romance, creative ventures, art, beauty, pleasure, vacation, risk and speculation, and child-oriented projects. But these are nothing compared to the huge year-long streak of the same that will arrive by mid-2012 – one that will fulfill a major life-wish! Prepare for that time by building a secure platform psychologically, emotionally and in concrete terms (e.g., buy a house).Your luck in real estate, domesticity, with children, security, retirement, gardening, Mother Nature – will reach a decade high from June 22, 2011 to mid-June , 2012. Don’t start early! Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: The emphasis lies on your home, security, children, nourishment, on Mother Nature, retirement, endings and beginnings. A minor new phase or project might begin in these areas midweek. Usually this phase (late May to late June) creates a restful, sluggish mood designed to give you a mid-year rejuvenation. But this time a lot of errands, trips, visits, calls and paperwork keep you busy. June 4 starts a year in which your career will involve a lot of running around and communicating. Romance disappoints Friday, flows smoothly Saturday. One met before Friday isn’t compatible. timstephens@shaw.ca • Reading: 416-686-5014

Driver’s guide to satellite radio
A B D E R ETLE O F F A
ONLY 6 5 LEFT!
A few quick points to get started with satellite radio in your car. 1. How does it all work? Vehicles equipped with a satellite radio receiver and a subscription get unlimited access to Sirius’ 120 channels of news, talk, sports, comedy and commercial free music.
3. How can I get satellite radio in my car? Most new vehicles are available with satellite radio. If your car doesn’t have an integrated satellite radio, there are a variety of Sirius dockand-play and portable radios available that can be installed quickly and easily. 4. I live in a remote part of the country. Will I be able to get a signal? Satellite radio provides coverage across North America from urban centres to some of the most remote regions. Even while you are travelling from one province to another or within the U.S., the reception will remain clear. 5. What about road trips? Satellite radio was made for road trips. With Sirius, you can drive from Victoria to Charlottetown or Winnipeg to Miami without ever having to change the channel.

Soon, drivers across Canada will be singing the praises of the return of the warmer weather, and will gladly change their winter tires back over to all-seasons. However, it’s important to remember that your tire care doesn’t stop when the winter tires come off. In fact, proper care for your tires is a year–long initiative to ensure that in any season your vehicle’s performance, gas mileage and, most importantly, overall safety is in check. Take a look at this tire checklist from Goodyear: – Tires balanced: keeping your tires rotated, aligned and balanced is key to optimizing tire wear. – Tires inflated: proper inflation helps with your car’s performance, gas mileage, and tire wear. – Tires clean: this can extend the life of the tires and help you notice any damage that could lead to more serious threats. – Tires feel good: even more important than appearance is how they feel on your car. If anything is vibrating or simply doesn’t feel right, have the tires inspected by an expert. – Tires match the climate: this is crucial for Canadians with extreme weather conditions as using winter tires in the summer or all–seasons in winter can reduce the performance potential of the vehicle.

Every day we see them on our streets – customized vehicles with non–stock spoilers, enhanced engines, raised suspensions and the like. Needless to say, the post– manufacturer auto modification business is booming. But while adding performance parts and ‘styling’ features to your vehicle can give it a distinct appearance and improve performance, it may also impact your auto insurance. So before you add a turbo– charged engine or even tint your windows, it is a good idea to contact your insurance broker or insurer to make certain you have the right coverage. Insurance expert Mauro Convertini from Aviva Canada, points out how vehicle modifications can increase risk and premiums as a result.

Safety
Adjust your headrest While buckling seatbelts is second nature when getting into a car – how many of us think to adjust the headrest? Reports show that headrests are one of the most overlooked safety features in motor vehicles today and many don’t realize the important role they play in preventing neck, brain and spinal cord related injuries. “Headrests are designed to work alongside the seatbelt so that when an accident occurs it prevents the head from twisting backwards, which subsequently results in whiplash,” explains Mauro Convertini, an insurance and claims expert at Aviva Canada. “Drivers can sustain an injury from an incorrectly adjusted headrest even at speeds as low as 15 kilometres per hour – the same speed as the average bicycle.” According to an Insurance Bureau of Canada study, only 14 per cent of drivers on the road have their headrest in the proper position. And whiplash being the most common soft tissue injury incurred during auto collisions underlines the importance for all passengers

to ensure their headrest is adjusted properly. Aviva’s Convertini recommends that Canadian drivers follow three simple steps in order to prevent injuries associated with improper headrest position:
