Surrey, White Rock
We must act fast on tracks, mayors say Cities of Surrey and White Rock make case for railway relocation Christopher Poon Now staff Twitter @questionchris
SOUTH SURREY — “From rails to trails.” It’s a simple and catchy slogan behind a new push from the cities of Surrey and White Rock to look at the potential relocation of the railway tracks from their
shared waterfront. The campaign officially kicked off Tuesday night during a community open house held by both municipalities seeking feedback from residents on what they’d like to see done in the face of increasingly hazardous materials being transported through their communities. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts led the charge by explaining to the 300 or so in attendance that the rail line currently in use was built more than 100 years ago. “We have seen between 2004 and 2013, about a 1,000 per cent increase in rail traffic,” she said.
Dianne Watts
Wayne Baldwin
Now, with the population growing so rapidly in the area, as well as concerns raised about emergency access to Crescent Beach and the transportation of hazardous goods
such as chlorine, hydrochloric acid and propane through the areas, Watts said it’s time to look at future long-term plans for rail traffic relocation. What that might look like is in the very early stages, but Watts said there were four possible lines that could reduce the need for a waterfront rail line, including one route that could run along Highway 99 parallel to King George Boulevard, or three others that run through east Surrey, near the Langley border. The projects could require 11 to 14 kilometres of new track, depending on the location selected. see RAIL › page 7

Missed deliveries madden city man Canada Post’s mailbox mandate drives Cloverdale business owner batty SHARE YOUR SIMILAR STORIES WITH
Jacob Zinn Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn
CLOVERDALE — It’s been six weeks since Wayne Sutherland last received mail at his business. Sutherland, owner of Cloverdale Antiques & Fine Art, has been arguing with Canada Post over the mail authority’s insistence that he install a mailbox outside his store. Because he doesn’t have a mailbox, Sutherland said the mailperson skips his business on the route, keeping his letters at the post office. He currently has a sign at his storefront instructing the mailperson to slip his letters through a small gap between the double doors, which he said is how the mail was delivered for decades. “There’s about a half-inch area of air,” he said. “The mailman’s been putting it through since 1948, but I’ve not been receiving my mail.” Following a recent rash of mail theft in Cloverdale and Clayton Heights, Sutherland said he is concerned that thieves could easily reach into a mailbox outside his store. That’s why he’d prefer to have the mail slipped into his business, which is armed with an alarm system. “Attaching an outside mailbox is not secure at all,” he said. “People can just open them and take it out.” Sutherland said other businesses along his street have installed mailboxes because
Over the course of six weeks, the only mail that Wayne Sutherland has received at Cloverdale Antiques & Fine Art is a notice stating that his business needs a mailbox. Sutherland is challenging they’ve had similar dealings with Canada Post. Partway into the ordeal, Sutherland received a notice from Canada Post saying it has had difficulty delivering his mail because he has no mailbox. Ironically, he said the letter went through the slit between his shop’s front doors. “This is the only mail I’ve received in six weeks,” he said. Eugene Knapik, a spokesperson with Canada Post, said having a mailbox or mail slot is a standard requirement for mail

delivery across the country. “If we have a relief employee who’s not familiar with the route, they’re going to look for a mailbox or a mail slot to put the mail,” he said. “Otherwise, it’s going to create unnecessary delays.” Sutherland took up his situation with the Canada Post ombudsperson, asking for the resumption of delivery and a letter of apology. According to Canada Post, the ombudsperson maintained that he needs a mailbox or mail slot that meets its requirements.
“We hope that the customer complies with the ruling of the ombudsman and provides a mailbox or a mail slot,” said Knapik. “Millions of Canadians provide that for delivery.” But despite that, Sutherland still doesn’t see why he should have to add a different slot for the five letters he receives per week. After all, his store went 65 years without one. “I’m just so frustrated – I just want my mail delivered,” he said. jzinn@thenownewspaper.com

finance committee. “The budget for 2014 articulates revenues of almost $12 million that are going to be coming in from secondary suite fees. These secondary suite fees are really helping us with our infrastructure and much of our capital.” Gill said the revenue collected from secondary suite fees will help fund the city’s Build Surrey projects, including the two pools in Guildford and Grandview. Council also discussed Surrey’s parking utility, set to start up next year with the underground parkade at the new city hall. Spaces will cost $75 per month for nonreserved parking, $130 per month for reserved parking and $1.50 per hour for public use. The budget also allows for 12 new police officers, plus five additional support staff. No new firefighters, bylaw officers or animal control officers were budgeted for. The city expects to spend $9 million on labour contract increases and $2.4 million on third party increases.

SURREY LOCATION
SURREY — On Monday, Surrey city council approved recommendations for the city’s 2014 financial plan at its annual budget meeting, permitting new increases to property taxes and utility fees. Council OK’d a 2.9-per-cent property tax hike – roughly a $44.40 increase for the average home in Surrey – and a $68.94 increase in utilities. The fees break down as follows: $15.31 for a road and traffic levy, $19.36 for water, $19.26 for sewer, $13 for drainage and $2 for garbage. In addition, homeowners with secondary suites will have to pay an extra $15 per year on their suite fees, bringing the total to $410. Based on the previous average of $2,582 for property tax and utilities, homeowners will now have yearly bills around $2,764 – or $3,174 if they have a suite. “Surrey’s gone through a significant transition over the last number of years and I think that, when you look at some of the issues that we face here in the city, secondary suites has been by far one of the largest issues that I personally have had to deal with as a member of council,” said Coun. Tom Gill, who also chairs the city’s

City will appoint youth to advisory committees
SWEEPSTAKES
Amy Reid Now staff Twitter @amyreid87
SURREY — Surrey youth will soon have a new opportunity to provide their point of view to the city. On Monday, Surrey council decided to appoint a youth representative to all of the city’s advisory committees. It’s not certain how quickly those representatives will be appointed, but Coun. Tom Gill said council plans to expedite the youth involvement, and hopes all will be in place next year. Gill said the age cap will likely be 24 or 25. “(Monday), we were deciding on the committees and some of the appointments, and we wanted there to kind of be another door of access for the youth,” Gill said. “We felt that given where we are at with the city and given the demographics of our community that, really, we should have some youth. And we’ve had some really great experiences with some of our younger folks in the community giving us some guidance and giving us some insight. So
that’s something we wanted to push.” Gill said that one-third of Surrey’s population is under 19 and the city is looking for opportunities to “groom” youth, in terms of city Tom Gill involvement. “There are a lot of smart, articulate, kind and giving youth out there that really want to be part of the system. I think this opportunity will encourage them to participate at the city,” he said. “This is really an opportunity that will permit the city to kind of really grasp what all realms of the community are thinking, and all ages. And I think that’s kind of the emphasis behind it. It’s a really great initiative. The whole team really was supportive of having that opportunity available.” areid@thenownewspaper.com

View the LARGEST display of Poinsettias in the whole Fraser Valley!
Surrey, White Rock
Rail relocation feedback needed before next step White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin began his speech by telling a story of a derailment that could occur during a rainy November day. In his story, Baldwin detailed a waterlogged railway track foundation that simply could not hold any more water and begins to shift, leading to a derailment. “It’s not a good story, but it could be in our future,� he said. “Is it likely? Maybe not. Is it possible? Most definitely.� Baldwin noted that there have been nine derailments on the track, which is owned and operated by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe in the U.S. While those derailments all came in the track’s first 50 years – with the last being in 1956 – he pointed out that there are still mudslides every year. Rather than wait for something disastrous to happen, he said, the time to act is now. “When this route was first designed and built, there were relatively fewer trains,� Baldwin said. “We now have 15 to 20 a day, the southbound trains carry a multitude of dangerous goods, including poisonous gases

and molotov fuels, these are not the trains of our grandparents’ days or even that of our parents.� When asked who would fund such a project, estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars, Watts said BNSF would be looking to contribute and she was hopeful other levels of government and stakeholders would be as well. “There are funding partners out there for sure and there’s no way the cities of White Rock and Surrey are going to raise that and no way we’re going to raise taxes to do this, it’s just not going to happen,� she said. But before those conversations are to be had, Watts said Surrey and White Rock needed to hear from residents. To do this, the two cities are seeking resident feedback via an online survey that can be found at www.cityspeaks.ca/saferail. “There is a lot of work to do, a lot of partners to have the conversation with, but at the end of the day, if this can move forward... this can really be something that the community will treasure forever.� cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

The City of Surrey is proposing to create a neighbourhood bicycle route between Surrey City Centre and the new Port Mann Bridge. The route will guide cyclists through local roads with lower traffic volumes and speeds, the route includes pathway improvements, signage and pavement markings. A new pedestrian/cycling bridge over Bon Accord Creek at 109 Avenue, east of 144 Street is also planned as part of the project. A public open house displaying details of the planned project will take place at Ellendale Elementary School (14525 110A Avenue, Surrey, BC) on Monday, December 2, 2013 between 6:00 PM and 8:00 PM

SURREY — The City of Surrey is asking the federal government for $1.8 billion for its light rail Surrey Rapid Transit Project, as well as a variety of other infrastructure improvements, through the New Building Canada Plan. The federal Economic Action Plan 2013 included the building plan, which will provide $53 billion in funding over 10 years. If approved, the $1.8 billion in funding would go to TransLink. “TransLink would still be responsible. It’s not us,” said Coun. Tom Gill. “This is our humble request to the federal and possibly the provincial government to look at opportunities to fund this... Give the money to TransLink so we can do our system. That’s basically what we’re trying to say.” The report to council said that, approved projects would likely be based on cost-sharing between the federal, provincial and local governments. Gill said transit is the missing piece of the puzzle in Surrey and he is disappointed
TransLink has yet to bless the city’s plans. And he’s further disappointed the province is turning the matter over to referendum. “How do you convince people from Vancouver who are well served that it’s good investment to invest in Surrey? We’ve been patiently waiting with the rapid transit line to Richmond and to the airport... We were really caught off guard in terms of the province’s solution.” Through the New Building Canada Plan, Surrey is also requesting $35 million for a Highway 99/152nd Street Interchange and $6 million for Highway 99/24th Avenue Interchange ramps. The city is also requesting $16 million for a Newton Fitness Addition, $18 million for a new recreation centre in East Clayton as well as $3 million for phase two of the Surrey Museum. Lastly, when it comes to flood control, the city is requesting $20 million to replace the Serpentine-Nicomekl Rivers Sea Dams. The dams were originally constructed in the early ’90s and in 2006, an assessment of the dams showed the structures are not capable of withstanding most earthquakes.

Surrey wins QUEST award for energy system District energy systems are considered clean energy systems that help to conserve energy through improved efficiency over conventional heating and cooling systems and do not contribute to harmful greenhouse gas emissions. Surrey’s organic biofuel facility will be the only fully integrated, closed-loop waste management system in North America upon its 2015 completion. Organic waste collected in Surrey will be processed into fuel and used to power the city’s fleet of waste collection vehicles. Coun. Bruce Hayne, chair of the city’s environmental sustainability advisory committee, attended the QUEST 2013 Conference from Nov. 12 to 14 as a keynote panellist discussing energy in a growing community. “The district energy system and the organic biofuel facility are the results of applying advanced technologies to sound, sustainable city planning,” Hayne said. “I am proud to be part of a city that is forward-thinking and implementing clean energy infrastructure.”

CITY CENTRE — Surrey has received a QUEST Community Energy Builder Award for the development of the district energy system in its downtown core and its planned organic biofuel facility that will turn organic waste into renewable natural gas. QUEST – Quality Urban Energy Systems of Tomorrow – is a national non-profit organization that undertakes research, policy analysis, outreach and capacity building to advance smart energy communities in Canada. “Creating viable clean energy infrastructure is a part of the long-term vision for continuing to build Surrey into a wellplanned, urban centre,” said Mayor Dianne Watts in a release. “It is a part of our overall commitment to sustainability.” Surrey’s district energy system will distribute thermal energy, in the form of steam and heated or cooled water, through a network of pipes to heat, cool and provide hot water for the City Centre Library, the new Surrey city hall, and 3 Civic Plaza, a planned 50-storey mixed-use hotel and residential project.

SURREY — The city’s three latest homicide victims all lived lives of crime, police say. Surrey’s 23rd homicide of the year was recorded early Saturday morning after a fight broke out at a reputed “booze can” in Guildford. Police say the victim, Ronald Richard Lomas, 44, had an “extensive” criminal record dating back to 1986. A second man who was assaulted was sent to hospital, in critical condition, and is in a medically-induced coma. His name has not been released. “He’s expected to survive,” said Sgt. Adam MacIntosh, of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Unit. Roughly 40 people were reportedly at the “booze can,” an illegal after-hours bar, when the fight broke out after 4 a.m. at a house in the 9100-block of 147A Street. Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for IHIT, said police have yet to identify and speak to everyone who was in the house when the assault happened. “We know there are people who may have information that could assist in identifying the suspects involved,” Pound said. “Those individuals should feel morally and ethically obligated to come forward and speak with police.” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said Surrey isn’t rife with booze cans but noted they are a concern. “They’re definitely not the kind of activities we like to see in any

neighbourhood,” he said. A Surrey man was stabbed three times in his chest and stomach area during an afterhours party at a booze can in Whalley on June 10, 2012, outside a basement suite near 101st Avenue and 132nd Street. Meanwhile, police have also released the names of the two other men who were killed in separate homicides earlier this month. Both were known to police. Mark Winston Berry, 44, was found dead Nov. 18 inside a residence in the 12000block of 99th Avenue in Whalley. He was Surrey’s 22nd homicide victim. Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for the IHIT, noted Berry had “an extensive criminal record” dating back to 1987. “He was known to occasionally stay at the residence where he was found but was not a full-time tenant of the home,” Pound said. She did not reveal how Berry died. “An autopsy was completed which has confirmed that foul play was a factor in his death,” she said. Meanwhile, Surrey’s 21st homicide victim of this year was Corey Bennett, 44. His body was found at a residence in the 2600-block of King George Boulevard on Nov. 9. Pound said Bennett “was known for his significant ties to the drug trade.” Two men have been arrested in Bennett’s killing. Donald James Chad, 30, has been charged with second-degree murder and robbery with a firearm. His alleged accomplice, Matthew Rene Bernard, 27, is charged with manslaughter and robbery with a firearm.

Santa’s missing pipe not worst offence OddThoughts Bob Groeneveld
I
t is long past time Santa lost his pipe. But I’m divided on revising Clement Clarke Moore’s fabulous poem, A Visit from St. Nicholas, as has been done by an “author and activist” who has deigned to venture into the hinterlands of the Fraser Valley to spread her message of the joy and good cheer of a de-piped Santa Claus. I agree that Moore’s Santa is not a good role model for kids who don’t want to die of cancer, or who are worried that their parents or St. Nick himself might be piping that foul disease into their lungs. But I have to use the same argument I would use against anyone attempting to censor any other important piece of literature based on changing values or even
updated understanding. Huckleberry Finn comes to mind as a quite recently prominent and controversial example. Some people were outraged at attempts to ban a book that had been a mainstay for growing young minds for more than a century. Others were outraged that anyone would be opposed to banning the book. Some of the language – especially some parts of dialogue – in Mark Twain’s book that is deemed objectionable today exposes a reality that existed at the time of the writing. Most of us don’t like that reality – but censoring or banning the book would sweep it under a rug, to be forgotten – and therefore, perhaps, one day repeated. There are important life lessons to be learned from Twain’s seminal novel, and the growth in our social consciousness since its writing can add
substantially to those lessons. Banning any such book would damage an important piece of literature, and censoring it nullifies the additional learning experience that arises from the opportunity to discuss the historical realities with young, impressionable readers. And so likewise, rather than removing the pipe from Santa’s mouth in Moore’s poem, it would be far more instructive to allow youngsters to enjoy the beauty of the words and the lustre of the poet’s imagery. And then, when the reading is done, thoughtful discussion commences. Remind your kids that Santa’s filthy habit was a product of times when people were generally
more ignorant of health issues – not just ignorant about smoking and liferobbing tobacco-related diseases like cancer and emphysema, but also ignorant of the roles that general cleanliness, and brushing your teeth, and eating well play in living longer and healthier lives. Remind them that most people – including moms and dads, and even the Santa look-alikes who help him out all over the world (and without icky smokemakers sticking out of their jolly old faces!) – tend to live longer today than they did when Moore put that pipe in Santa’s mouth. Children can learn from the changing realities that better understanding of the world around us brings. An even bigger issue for me, however, is the missing apostrophe that appears
in so many rewrites – and even direct copies – of Moore’s classic. (It wouldn’t be so bad, if it was a typographical error, but its consistent abuse clearly indicates it has been lost to simple ignorance). ’Twas is a legitimate, albeit no longer often used abbreviation of “it was,” while twas is an outright, ignorant error – not a word, just a common, stupid mistake – yet another assault on the English language, and one more useful lesson

She often carries an extra plastic bag with her to pick up litter as she’s walking. It’s unfortunate that there’s random garbage around to pick up, but good for her for doing that. Thank you! Bouquets of red roses to the staff at Surrey Memorial Hospital for their professional and compassionate care of our loved one D.A.H. in his last days. We appreciate your work. Roses to the people who work at “The Residence at Clayton Heights” in the “Prairie Station” neighbourhood. We are so appreciative of the care you are providing to our loved one. A bouquet of red roses to the people who saved our little papillon, Cherie, when she jumped out of our car and ran away. Two kind ladies, Rosemary and Jeanette, saw Cherie running down 128th Street and knew she was in a panic. Rosemary grabbed a leash from her car and ran after Cherie. The workmen on 128th Street stopped all traffic both ways until Cherie was cornered and leashed. About this time, we decided to go home and the minute we were home, there was a knock on the door. Rosemary told us they had Cherie safe and sound in her mother’s home. We couldn’t believe our prayers to God would be answered so soon. A fire hall of rotten tomatoes to all of those who accept the Delta firefighters using the company time and vehicle to buy groceries.

The Editor, Kudos to the City of Surrey for finally ditching those ghastly Christmas street decorations along the streets of Newton near 72nd Avenue and King George Boulevard that we have been subjected to for the past few years. It was unfortunate that Newton got the bargain basement, close-out decorations in the first place. But, as they say, better late than never. The new decorations are a huge upgrade from the old ones and now I don’t have to drive to Whalley to see some attractive decorations. Daniel Allen, Surrey
Rotten tomatoes to the genius in the Surrey engineering department who made the decision to remove the traffic light at Bridgeview and 115th Avenue. Not much thought was put into this one. It can be an absolutely ridiculous wait to make a left-hand turn during rush hour with constant traffic coming off the South Fraser Perimeter Road. Try it in one of your semi trucks and let us know how you made out. It’s clear no consideration was given to the area’s businesses. It’s time to do a real traffic flow analysis. A van full of bloodied, stinking, rotten, decaying tomatoes to the guy who ran over and killed our beloved 11-year-old family pet, of all places in the 64th Avenue alley. It was obvious to me you weren’t even going to stop but when you saw me fly out from between the parked cars where our dog was, you stopped and said he just came out of nowhere. I’m still trying to figure out what or how I’m going to tell my three-year-old son – he keeps saying, “where’s Bailey?”It’s been a nightmare so far – slow down and beware of your surroundings. Thanks again.
Trades program worthy of kudos The Editor, Re: “Program gives students a head start on post-secondary,” the Now, Nov. 19. I have long admired the opportunities presented by our school district in the trades/career courses and hoped to see that spread to other fields of study. I was therefore really pleased to read
about Fraser Heights’ initiative in offering opportunities for students to earn postsecondary credits in math and science. This is a great way to expand on similar opportunities presented by the International Baccalaureate and Advanced Placement programs, where students can obtain credit for post-secondary institutions as a result of successfully completing an exam. This new Math and Science Academy offers similar benefits in allowing students to earn first year post-secondary credits while simultaneously completing their graduation requirements. Despite the $150 fee for each of the grades 11 and 12 years, this program provides students and their families a substantial savings in both time and money as well as an opportunity to accelerate post-secondary training. Kudos to Fraser Heights, SFU Surrey and the Surrey school district for moving ahead with this program. Linda Stromberg, Surrey

Concert in Surrey on Dec. 6
Streetheart: Past, present and future action Several memorable, riffy hits have kept Kenny Shields and band on stage since the 1970s SEE VIDEO OF INTERVIEW AND â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;UNDER MY THUMBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; CLIP FROM 1979

The Kenny Shields-led band Streetheart performs Friday, Dec. 6 at Bell Performing Arts Centre in Surrey, dishing out hits such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here Comes the Nightâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tin Soldier.â&#x20AC;? Winter Olympics at the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Celebration Siteâ&#x20AC;? at Holland Park, in the big indoor bar set up for the occasion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was a great gig there, I recall,â&#x20AC;? Shields said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a great moment, a great time â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really a bad vibe around, just a pretty simple, straight-ahead
gig. Everybody was there to have fun.â&#x20AC;? Back before Streetheart was formed, Shields sang in Witness Incorporated, a Saskatoon-based band that had a few regional hits and the good fortune to land some plum opening slots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Edmonton one night, we get a knock

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do get that sometimes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oh, that song! That was you guys?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Kenny Shields is on the phone with the Now from Winnipeg, where the Streetheart bandleader has made his home for nearly half of his music-filled life. Streetheart isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t instantly recognizable in photographs (for proof, see example at right), but many of the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s songs are the kind that, for many people of a certain age, fuel a drive down memory lane, back to the late-1970s and early 1980s. On the radio, it was a time for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Action,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hollywood,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here Comes the Night,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;What Kind of Love is Thisâ&#x20AC;? and other Streetheart hits, among others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It does happen, although not that often, I guess, where people come up to me and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know you did â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tin Soldier,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Shields noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That one surprises a lot of people when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re told it was ours.â&#x20AC;? Streetheart has enough past hits that it can still draw fans to a soft-seater the size of Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bell Performing Arts Centre, where the band is set to perform on Friday, Dec. 6. Tickets are $39.50 via 604-507-6355 and www.bellperformingartscentre.com. In Surrey, one of the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most memorable gigs was during the 2010
on the door and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eric Clapton (then with Cream), standing there with snakeskin boots, and he wants to know if our guitar player has a wah-wah pedal he could borrow. Well, our guitar player carried that little wah-wah pedal around in his hands for weeks after that, cherishing it.â&#x20AC;? The song of another British band, the Rolling Stones, has been a must-play song in Streetheart sets since 1979. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We originally played â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Under My Thumbâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; live because we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough originals to fill our set,â&#x20AC;? Shields revealed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It turned out that we could play that song at the beginning, in the middle of the set or as the encore, and it always seemed to get the same kind of buzz.â&#x20AC;? The recorded, slightly disco-ized version of the song became a significant hit for Streetheart, and it served to ignite the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And the longevity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we still get an incredible reaction when we start playing the first couple of bars of it, you know,â&#x20AC;? said Shields, a big Stones fan who recorded a version of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Angieâ&#x20AC;? for Letting Go, his new solo record of cover songs. The album, which can be found on iTunes, also includes remakes of Brenda Leeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Sorryâ&#x20AC;? and The Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Best of My Love.â&#x20AC;? Shieldsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; high, soaring voice has stood out on Streetheart songs since the beginning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In those smoke-filled rooms back in the day, doing six nights a week, I used to drink tea and honey just to get through and keep my voice good enough,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that anymore. I do have a Korean herbal cough syrup that looks like molasses, and I use that as a remedy before and after (performances). Things really have changed with the no-smoking laws now; it used to be that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d come out of a bar looking like an ashtray, you know, and it was rough on the voice sometimes. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice change for a guy like me, but it probably does piss off all the smokers, for sure.â&#x20AC;?

NEWTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Most record producers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t 24 years old, but then again, most record producers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like lifelong Surreyite Aneil Kainth. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let his young age fool you; Kainth, also known as DJ Intense, has been producing bhangra, R&B and hip-hop music for more than a decade. He got his start using downloaded software to remix songs for fun when he was 12 years old. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a few cousins who were DJs, so I wanted to follow some of my cousins and I decided to become a DJ myself,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started making remixes of Indian songs and started throwing those remixes out over social media â&#x20AC;&#x201C; back then it was MSN messenger, emailing, forums. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As I started getting good responses, I continued on and started developing my style, my whole production technique.â&#x20AC;? As Kainth became a teenager, he got more serious about producing, spending hours on end mixing and mastering songs. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long after that his parents pushed him to get a formal education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My parents were like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This is all you do all day, what are you going to do with your life?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he recalled with a laugh. Kainth enrolled in Stylus College of Music & Sound Technology in New Westminster,
where he learned music theory and how to produce indie rock. He translated those skills into producing other genres, including Bollywood-style tracks and Indian/hip-hop fusion. The schooling paid off and Kainth is finding himself with more work than ever. In the last 18 months, he has released two albums (More Than Just a DJ and SophistaFolk) and started his own record label, IMM Entertainment, with business partner the Teflon Don. Not only that, but their label â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which has signed more than 17 artists from across the globe â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is being picked up by Universal Music Aneil Kainth India. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went out to India in February and March, and I built a lot of connections,â&#x20AC;? said Kainth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re launching our debut album as a company in December. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be taking off to Bombay to launch through Universal Music India.â&#x20AC;? Kainth is preparing for a long stay in India, and a busy year ahead: He has three albums dropping between now and the end of 2014, and a new track titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Party Dha Moodâ&#x20AC;? coming out in an undisclosed film. He will also get to work alongside renowned Bollywood and bhangra singer/songwriter Mika Singh. But Kainth promises that while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overseas, he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget about Surrey â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in fact, he intends to represent the city where he got his start in producing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m born and bred here and this is what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing, and my plan is to put Surrey on the map,â&#x20AC;? he said.

WHITE ROCK — People here are gearing up to kick off the holiday season this weekend with two big events, Christmas on the Peninsula and Christmas on the Drive. Starting Saturday, Nov. 30, White Rock’s Uptown area will be taken over by the fifth annual Christmas on the Peninsula, which will feature a wide range of Christmas activities spread across town. “Every year this becomes bigger and better in all the different areas,” said event founder and director Liv Butow. “Every year I like to get more entertainers, more carolers, more participants, more decorations, more costumes. It grows steadily every year in all different areas, and that’s exactly how we want it to grow.” This year’s events will include Victorian carolers, a “Breakfast in Bethlehem,” story telling, a Christmas treasure hunt and of course, plenty of holiday treats. There will also be craft and ornament making and much more held at various venues in the Uptown area, including a tree lighting ceremony and Christmas parade. “This is the first event
of the year, so we kind of kick off the Christmas season for people on the peninsula,” said Butow. “It’s really nice people can come together and enjoy themselves and I love this community for that.” Christmas on the Peninsula runs from 8:30 a.m. to 6:15 p.m. For event information and the schedule, go to christmasonthepeninsula. com. The following day, on Saturday, Dec. 1, White Rock’s waterfront will also get the holiday treatment with Christmas on the Drive. The event, put on by White Rock Museum & Archives, White Rock BIA, Semiahmoo Arts, In White Rock and the city, will be the official lighting up of Marine Drive for the holiday season. Running from 3:30 to 5 p.m., Christmas on the Drive will feature the lighting of the Drive, a choir performance, carol singing, a chance to meet Rudolph, Frosty and Santa as well as a tree-lighting ceremony. The event will end with a performance by the Vancouver Fire Spinners. Christmas on the Drive will take place at the White Rock Museum & Archives, 14970 Marine Dr.

Panto season opens with ‘The Frog Princess’ in Surrey The Frog Chorus is ready to jump into action in The Frog Princess, this year’s pantomime by Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society, at Surrey Arts Centre. Pictured clockwise from top left are Nisha Bhathella, Jonathan Burgart, Elizabeth Olsson, Willow Wilhelm, Jacob Burgart and Eleanor Olsson.
ArtsScene Melanie Minty Columnist
A
s we approach the winter solstice (and the days get shorter), isn’t it just cheerful to have all the lights out and a festive atmosphere? Sure it is. It’s tradition. And nothing is more traditional for the season than a pantomime. Part of my yearly tradition is to explain that a pantomime is definitely not the same as mime, wherein a person in white face acts out a story without using words. A pantomime, on the other hand, is full of noise, singing, cheering, dancing and colourful characters. Usually based on a fairy tale, the traditional pantomime uses role reversal (the Dame is played by a man, and the principal boy – the hero – is played by a girl), groaner jokes, audience participation (cheer the hero, boo the villain) and a chorus of children to tell the story. While the adult actors and dancers are essential, I think the children’s chorus is the most endearing and essential part of the pantomime. For many kids, this is a first venture in being part of a live-theatre production, and a training ground. Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society has always had a strong children’s chorus, and some have graduated from the chorus to professional careers. My daughter is one of these panto grads who had her first performance experience with the FVGSS
pantos. I am grateful for the experience, even though we first got involved with the society at her insistence. She wanted to have a career in musical theatre (and she does) but 10year-olds are not really allowed to be part of the show without a parent being present backstage. And so we began a career together. It has proved to be one of the biggest gifts in my life. I graduated as well from backstage to onstage – although nobody pays me to be there! Ah well. Welcome to the arts. FVGSS’s 2013 pantomime, The Frog Princess, started its run at Surrey Arts
Centre’s mainstage on Wednesday, Nov. 27, with the opening on Friday, Nov. 29. It only runs for two weeks, so don’t delay in getting tickets. The last week is traditionally sold out. Bring your children. It might change their lives, and yours. At the very least, it is an enjoyable family outing. Mike Balser is the artistic director, Carol Seitz (my dance teacher) is the choreographer and Timothy Tucker is musical director. I have been privileged to work with all of these people, and it changed my life. The Frog Princess is an original work
written by Mike Balser, Cathy Wilmot and Norma Rushton, its story based on the Russian fairy tale. The show runs Wednesday to Saturday from 7:30 p.m., with matinee showings also on the calendar. Tickets are on sale now through the Surrey Arts Centre box office, 604-501-5566. After the opening show on Friday, the cast is stationed in the lobby for autographs – just part of the tradition. Music is a big part of the Christmas season, in addition to pantomimes. While secular songs assault our senses in every mall and shopping area, some of you out there will likely look forward to the annual presentation of Handel’s Messiah. This beloved Christmas tradition, with its magnificent music, is performed by the Handel Society of Music choir with Chilliwack Metropolitan Orchestra and soloists on Saturday, Dec. 7, 7:30 p.m., at Good Shepherd Church, 2250 150th St., South Surrey. Tickets are $20 each, or $15 for seniors and students (available at the door, also via 604-585-9102). This is an incredible experience – one you can add to your traditional seasonal activities. melminty@telus.net

ell, this is it. At long last, the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are out, ushering in the next generation of gaming. With the Xbox One having released last weekend and the PS4 a week before that, the next generation has become the current. While I have yet to get my hands on an Xbox One, I have been able to play a few hours on the PS4 and I will say one thing, the controller is fantastic. Gone is the blocky, uncomfortable
feel of the PlayStation 3 controller that worked so well with past iterations of the console. While the first two PlayStations were served well by the design, it was clear that something needed to change when the Xbox 360 debuted its sleeker, smoother controller. Now, the PS4 controller boasts contours similar to the Xbox 360’s, a popular design that was carried over to the Xbox One. While I have not picked up either of the new consoles, I will be purchasing a PS4 over the Xbox One. Previously, I chose the Xbox 360 over the PS3, a decision I’ve never regretted. see › page 23
New game systems PlayStation 4 (top) and the Xbox One have very similar innards, and both are very capable machines. Columnist Christopher Poon says he’s going to buck up for the Sony-made PS4, not the Microsoft product.

service, isn’t winning it any points in my books. I’m definitely going to miss several Xboxexclusive IPs when I make the move back to Sony, as I’ve invested good chunks of time into the likes of Halo and Forza. The concept behind the Xbox One is that it’s supposed to be the only system you’ll ever need in your living room. It will play your DVDs and Blu-Rays, allow you to surf the internet, run your cable box through it and provide the gloriousness that is Netflix. To be honest, there will always be better devices to do all of the above and, for me, all I really want is a gaming console. The PS4 is just that: a gaming device without the frills, though it can also do the aforementioned, sans cable box connectivity. But don’t let me sway you either way. Really, the two consoles have very similar innards and both are very capable machines from a hardware perspective. The difference in pricing may also be enough to sway buyers, as the PS4 comes in at $399 while the Xbox One commands a heftier $499, likely due to the accompanying Kinect. My advice for anyone with a bit of patience: Wait a few months for the kinks to be ironed out and for the consoles to become more readily available. There will be more games available, more people to play with online and more bugs and glitches already identified and fixed.
Don’t miss your opportunity to see this unique show that delights audiences of all ages.

To me, the Xbox 360 was the superior console of the two and provided a better user experience overall. Prior to that, I had a PlayStation 2, instead of an Xbox – see a pattern here? Of course, my decision to leave Microsoft and return to Sony has nothing to do with simply keeping things tit for tat, but rather a consumer decision based on Microsoft’s apparent contempt for its customers when the Xbox One was announced earlier this year. At that time, the Xbox One was slated to be always online, required a mandatory camera and microphone accessory (Kinect) and would not allow the sharing and lending of games. Microsoft has since pulled a 180 on those policies, responding to outrage in the gaming community, and now the Xbox One functions similarly to the much-loved Xbox 360 (though you still can’t purchase one without a Kinect). Sure, it’s great that Microsoft “listened” to gamers in reversing its policies, but after having claimed that changing the console back to what consumers wanted wouldn’t be as easy as “flipping a switch,” and then promptly flipping said switch, who’s to say Microsoft won’t revert back to its intended policies once people have an Xbox One in their homes? Additionally, Microsoft’s desire to whore out its Xbox interface to advertisers, despite it being a user-paid

SURREY — Wes Barker isn’t shy about wanting his own comedy show. The Surrey resident, 27, who works as a “stunt magician” at college campuses and other venues, is a top-five finalist in The Comedy Network’s “Exposed!” talent contest. To enter, contestants had to submit a video clip of them performing a stunt in nothing more than their underwear. The prize is $5,000 cash and a chance to develop a pilot for the TV channel. “The pilot is why I’m doing this,” Barker told the Now. “They can keep the money for all I care, it’s the pilot I want.… I’ve had an idea for a pilot for a long time.”

WHITE ROCK â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Susanne de Pencier is proudly retired, which has been a very good thing over the past couple of months. The director of Rumpelstiltskin, the latest pantomime from White Rock Playersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Club, says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worked an average of three hours a day on the production â&#x20AC;&#x201C; at home, away from the theatre â&#x20AC;&#x201C; since planning began. Her level of commitment to the show is matched, and possibly even surpassed, by
Bryce Mills (left, as M the Dame) and Nigel Watkinson (as Q) in the James Bond-esque panto Rumpelstiltskin, staged by White Rock Playersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Club at Coast Capital Playhouse. the actors, crew and others involved. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be able to do this if I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t retired,â&#x20AC;? said de Pencier with a laugh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a huge job, and it takes over your whole life. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how people can do something like this and have a regular day job,
so I really do respect the people who are doing this show who come from work to rehearsal. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a huge commitment.â&#x20AC;? The pantoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthlong run at Coast Capital Playhouse begins this week, with opening night on Friday, Nov. 29.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;It takes a lot of love of the theatre to strap yourself to that length of a run, especially during Christmas, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all doing a great job,â&#x20AC;? de Pencier added, noting that nearly double the number of people showed up for auditions than required. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice problem to have,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There was some really great talent, and some tough decisions had to be made. We got a lot of new people but also experienced people, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not starting from scratch, either.â&#x20AC;? This year, for its 59th annual panto, the company has shaken and stirred the Rumpelstiltskin story by injecting the late-â&#x20AC;&#x2122;60s look and feel of James Bond/ Austin Powers movies. In this Dave Baron-penned tale, Jimmy Bond must rescue his love, Penny Money, from the scheming Squire Goldringer and his henchmen (or henchanimals, as the story goes). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit different â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all the great elements of pantomime but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not all that trundle skirts and puffy sleeves and princesses and long dresses kind of thing,â&#x20AC;? de Pencier said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have a few of those fairy tale kind of costumes, too, but also the go-go boots and wild colours, stuff like that, which makes it more fun, I think, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still nostalgic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not of this era.â&#x20AC;? Bryce Mills is back as the flamboyant dame, which pleases de Pencier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bryce is a standout dame, I think â&#x20AC;&#x201C; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so good at it, and I really hope he does it for a few more years,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are coming to this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure, just because they know heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in it again.â&#x20AC;? Also opening Friday (Nov. 29) is The Frog Princess, the panto produced by Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society for a two-week run at Surrey Arts Centre (for more, see Melanie Mintyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s column on page 20). Meanwhile, Royal Canadian Theatre Company is busy preparing a panto version of Cinderella for the arts centre stage at Bear Creek Park from Dec. 20 to 29.

hen the Timewalkers hit the stage, “four stars shine as one.” This is a tag line for the quartet’s Saturday, Dec. 14 concert – now sold out – at Blue Frog Studios in White Rock. The harmonizing group of singer-songwriters features Michael Vincent, Ron Irving, Luke Isaac and Eli Bryan Nelson. Due to the demand for seats at the Dec. 14 date, a second show at the concert hall is set for Friday, Dec. 13. All the details are at bluefrogstudios.ca. Also making a return to the Johnston Road venue is Alfie Zappacosta, in concert with guest singers Amanda Wood (Dec. 6) and Dawn Chubai (Dec. 7).
‘YULETIDE BLUES’ RETURNS DEC. 8 The seventh annual Yuletide Blues benefit concert is set for Sunday, Dec. 8, with a lineup featuring several cool nicknames – Brandon “Yukon Slim” Isaak, James “Buddy” Rogers and David “Boxcar” Gates, among other performers. As in previous years, the fundraiser for the food bank will happen at the so-called Rhumba Room
bar at Pacific Inn hotel, off Highway 99 in South Surrey. The same venue plays host to another White Rock Blues Society staple: a New Year’s Eve party featuring The Twisters, this one billed as a “Mississippi Blues Extravaganza with a wide assortment of Southern Cuisine (and) all the bells and whistles you’d expect” on the night of Dec. 31. More event details are online at www. whiterockblues.com.
LIVE MUSIC AND DRIVE AT SAWBUCKS Over at Sawbucks, Chris Buck Band will kick it country style on the night of the pub’s Christmas Food Bank Drive, held on the afternoon of Saturday, Dec. 14. During the special event, reps from Sources’ food bank will be on hand to accept food and cash donations; those who give will get a free beverage, on the house, at 1626 152nd St.
ROCK ‘LEGENDS’ IN CHRISTMAS CONCERT Another Legends of Rock & Roll show is coming to Surrey’s Bell Performing Arts Centre, this time with a Christmas twist. Five all-star tribute acts will hit the stage on Saturday, Dec. 14, including Zachary Stevenson as Buddy Holly, Lance Lipinsky as Jerry Lee Lewis and Garry Moore as Little Richard, plus others. Details of the “Rock ‘n’ Roll Christmas” tour are at LegendsofRocknRoll.com.

Mushroom: not your ordinary plant or vegetable OnCooking Chef Dez Columnist
O
ne of the most unique foods that we consume on a regular basis is mushrooms.
Unlike any ordinary vegetable or plant, mushrooms are actually members of the fungus family. They are produced from spores rather than seeds, and therefore lack the familiar plant traits of leaves, flowers and roots. During the development of normal plants, nutrition is absorbed by not only the
root system, but also by the presence of chlorophyll in the green leaves and stems. Mushrooms on the other hand must find other ways to derive nutrition to aid in their maturation. In order to do this, they adhere themselves to different organic matter and feed on the nutritional elements that are naturally
found there. Although there are thousands of different varieties of mushrooms, less than 20 species are cultivated commercially. The most standard varieties we find in the local retail markets are the white button (common mushroom), crimini, shiitake, portabella (aka portobello),

oyster and occasionally enoki mushrooms. White button are the most commonly used mushrooms that we are all most familiar with. Therefore, they are the most recognizable mushroom and the most widely cultivated variety. Crimini look like brown button mushrooms but are actually immature portabella mushrooms and thus more delicate in texture than fully grown portabellas. Shiitake mushrooms originated in Asia. They are dark brown, have a smoky and somewhat nutty flavour, and the tough woody stems are usually discarded. Portabellas are very large with their tops ranging anywhere from seven to 12
centimetres and are known as the steak of all mushrooms. Oyster mushrooms are fluted and their stems are usually grouped together. They have a mild flavour that some say is reminiscent of oysters. Enoki mushrooms are the smallest and most delicate of the varieties listed here. They grow in clusters of small white caps on long thin stems that are usually six to 10 centimetres long. Occasionally, mushrooms are served as the principal component of a dish, such as stuffed mushrooms; however, they are usually added to a recipe as one of the ingredients or see › page 38

accompaniments, such as in soups, salads, omelets and pizzas for example. They are available not only fresh, but also dried and canned as well. If you are buying dried mushrooms, rehydrate for approximately 30 minutes in just enough warm water to cover them, and reserve the flavoured residual liquid to add to recipes
along with the refreshed mushrooms themselves. Canned mushrooms are usually just the ones of the white common variety and come in whole, slices or pieces. Despite being convenient, canned mushrooms lack the same nutritional value as fresh mushrooms due to the processing procedures involved. They also have a completely different flavour and texture than fresh.
Although fresh mushrooms donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t keep well for long periods of time, the ideal storing environment is in the refrigerator in a brown paper bag, rather than in plastic. This allows for proper air circulation by letting the mushrooms â&#x20AC;&#x153;breathe.â&#x20AC;? Trapping moisture in a plastic produce bag will cause rapid deterioration and the development of bacteria. Mushrooms consist of mostly water and can spoil very quickly if not kept
in the proper environment. Many non-cultivated wild mushrooms can be very poisonous, and even lethal. To be safe, you should always avoid eating any wild mushrooms unless you are professionally trained to recognize the different varieties that naturally grow in the wild.

7 Simple Tips for Choosing Kid Tech Tools from the team at Sylvan Learning Computers, video games, mobile phones and tablets are ubiquitous in our lives and the lives of our kids.

Every day new resources appear in our apps stores and we’re bombarded with all the ’Best of’ and ‘Top 10’ lists. Parents should look for reviews and endorsements by reliable sources, including educational organizations, before giving their children access to any new tech resource. To help parents make good choices with digital media, Sylvan Learning is offering seven simple guidelines for selecting new tech tools and apps: 1. Does it focus on active learning? Choose educational
tools and activities that are interactive rather than passive, such as TV and DVDs. 2. What skills does it reinforce? Look for skills like eye-hand coordination, memorization, computation, dexterity, critical thinking and creativity. 3. Does it allow your child to practice the skill? When a program or activity says it teaches a skill, then it should provide practice with that skill and explain how the skill building is accomplished. 4. Does it provide feedback? Effective technology provides feedback on performance to help your child build their skills and confidence. 5. Is it age appropriate? Check the age and skill level to make sure they are a good match for your child’s current developmental level. 6. Is it user-friendly? Your child should be able to understand and navigate the
technology, so that it fosters engagement and enjoyment. 7. Does it include ads? Some free or “lite” versions of apps or programs include ads. Before your child uses the program, you can review the content first and vet the ads. You can also opt to forgo apps that include ads. When used effectively, technology helps enable and empower our children’s educational lives. The key lies in monitoring kids’ electronic use. There’s no substitute for parental involvement when it comes to encouraging our children to learn. Playing educational games with our kids is a great way to encourage their academic progress. Also, as parents we need to remember to model good behavior and limit our own screen time.

THE HOLIDAY SEASON IS IN FULL SWING! People are busy attending gettogethers or meeting friends to watch a game and some of these activities may involve a few drinks. If your festivities include alcohol, plan ahead for a safe ride home before you head out. While attitudes towards drinking and driving have changed considerably since the launch of CounterAttack more than 35 years ago, there are still people who take chances or make excuses for drinking and driving. Impaired driving remains a leading cause of car crash fatalities in B.C. Every December, an average of five people are killed on our roads in crashes involving impaired driving. These are preventable tragedies and that’s why police across the province are dedicated and will be out in full force targeting impaired drivers at CounterAttack roadchecks. We all know that alcohol can affect one’s judgement, reaction time, coordination and visual functions. Behind the wheel that means it affects your ability to steer, control your speed and
lane position, track moving objects and brake appropriately. And the truth is no amount of coffee, food or fresh air can sober you up.

in at that point, but when we got the ball back, we pushed all the way down the field and scored. It was a back and forth game like that right to the end.” The early exchange of touchdowns set the tone for the remainder of the contest. The Rams were led by star wide receiver Marcus Davis, who scored five touchdowns for the province’s top-ranked team. Lord Tweedsmuir countered with star tailback Jamel Lyles, who carried the ball 28 times for 198 yards and four majors. Tight end Jeff Godard scored the other major on a 60-yard pass TD pass from Lyles out of the wildcat formation. “We scored five touchdowns and their offence scored five touchdowns,” Thornton said. “The difference in the game was a pick-six interception by Marcus Davis.

The Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers came close, but could not pull off the comefrom-behind upset against the defending provincial champions in the class AAA football semifinals at UBC Saturday. The Panthers gave up two early touchdowns before digging in their heels and battling back, but the early deficit was too much to overcome in a 39-33 loss to Victoria’s Mount Douglas Rams. “Our kids pushed back hard,” said Panthers coach Kurt Thornton. “I think we rattled them pretty good several times — five times we pulled to within six points in that game. They went up 12-0 and, honestly, the kids could have threw the towel
a special player. We controlled their run game fairly well; our biggest problem was we couldn’t cover him. They lined him up wide and hit him deep a couple of times.” Thornton added he was disappointed with the chippy play by the Rams, who were clearly frustrated when the Panthers wouldn’t roll over and quit like so many of their previous opponents. “They’re a dirty team,” he said. “There were a lot of unsportsmanlike penalties called against them. There’s a difference between being physical and being dirty. We’ve played some tough physical teams — Terry Fox and Mouat are both physical teams that play to the whistle, but they’re not dirty. With Mount Doug, they kicked one of our players in the (groin) and they were twisting ankles on the bottom of the
pile. It was pretty gross.” The game came down to final two minutes of play. The Rams looked like they were going to ice the affair when they set up with first-and-goal from the one-yard line, but Panthers defender Michael Carter forced a fumble to give the Cloverdale boys one last breath of life. Tweedsmuir moved the ball out to midfield, but the drive ended when the Panthers were forced to turn the ball over on downs. “I was really proud of our kids; they were phenomenal,” Thornton said. “It was the biggest game of the year and they played well enough to win. They left it all on the field and the way they responded to adversity was everything you can ask for as a coach. But to be that close and not quite close it out, that’s tough to accept.”

We just have to find a way to win more of those one-goal games. We have to be more successful with either keeping the lead or finding a way to get one more goal in those situations. We’re close and now we have to find a way to put a streak together.”
Surrey goalie Devon Fordyce stopped 20 shots to earn the win. Schaefer was happy to get the win, but noted the Eagles need to develop more consistency in their play in close games. “We’ve had so many games determined by one goal this year,” he said. “We’re right

Home ice made all the difference as the Surrey Eagles and Merritt Centennials traded wins in a home-and-home set in B.C. Hockey League action last weekend. The Centennials outlasted the Eagles 5-4 in Merritt on Friday night only to have the Eagles answer with a 2-1 win on Saturday in South Surrey. “We played a run-and-gun game up there and a good playoff-style game here at home,” said Eagles coach Peter Schaefer. “We kept getting the lead and then giving it up when we played in Merritt, but the second game was much better. Hopefully we can learn from the second game what is the right way to play and to win.” At South Surrey Arena Saturday night, the Eagles were on their best behaviour with a close-checking and intense effort. Merritt opened the scoring on the power-play early in the first period and protected that lead for almost 40 minutes until Surrey pulled even on a Jonah Renouf goal 40 seconds into the final frame. Eagles’ forward Danton Heinen then bagged the game winner seven minutes later on the power play.
The Eagles started the weekend in Merritt where they abandoned the attention to defensive detail that has proven to be successful for them in the past. Instead, the Surrey players found themselves caught up in a shootout and were unable to pull out the win. Surrey took the lead four times in the contest and each time Merritt answered with a goal of their own to pull even with the defending BCHL champions. The Centennials struck for two goals 23 seconds apart late in the second period to take the lead for the first time in the game at 5-4. Merritt goalie Devin Kero turned aside all 13 Surrey shots he faced in the third period to seal the win. “We played hard, we just didn’t play smart,” Schaefer said. “It was almost like the guys were cheating and trying to score too much when we got the lead instead of playing the right way and trying to protect the lead. “There were a lot of weird bounces in their small rink; it’s very similar to playing in Coquitlam.” Renouf, Darius Davidson, Brett Mulcahy and Luke Sandler each scored once in a losing cause for Surrey.

Undefeated run leaves Community Appreciation Day Panorama Ridge in fifth Michael Booth Now staff Twitter @boothnow

Come decorate with us
One minor blotch on their record spelled doom for the Panorama Ridge Thunder at the B.C. High School Senior Boys AAA Soccer Championships in Burnaby last weekend. The Fraser Valley champions went undefeated in the tournament, but wound up in fifth place thanks to a 1-1 draw with Reynolds in preliminary round play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wasted one opportunity all weekend and it came back to bite us,â&#x20AC;? said Thunder co-coach Paul Nowakowski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a single knockout tournament and you just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any letdowns. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no room for error because every team is good when you get to provincials. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We lost one game all year and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose a game at the provincials and have nothing to show for it. Those are tough circumstances, but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say enough about our boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; character and determination. Of course itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappointing to end up fifth like that, but it just makes our guys even more determined for next season.â&#x20AC;? The Thunder opened the tourney on Thursday with a solid 2-0 win over Mount Baker, but stumbled in their next outing with a tie against Reynolds. The Newton boys returned to form with a 4-0 win Friday morning over South Kamloops only to discover the significance of the opportunity they squandered against Reynolds when the round-robin standings were posted. The Thunder and Reynolds finished in a tie for first place, forcing a shootout between the two teams
to determine who would advance to the semifinal round. The Victoria squad prevailed on spot kicks and Panorama Ridge was officially out of title contention. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As much of a downer as it was to lose that shootout, the way the guys responded was really impressive,â&#x20AC;? Nowakowski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were back on the field within the hour against a very good team from McMath and to see the way the guys bounced back to get a 4-2 win really showed me what this team was all about. It was great to see.â&#x20AC;? The win over McMath lifted the Thunder into the fifth-place game against the only team to beat them this season, the archrival Tamanawis Wildcats. Panorama Ridge lead 2-1 late in the contest only to have the Wildcats claw back and tie the game to force a shootout. The Thunder would not be denied a second time on spot kicks, scoring on four chances to win 4-2. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This time we took care of business in the shootout and won it,â&#x20AC;? Nowakowski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So we won one of two shootouts, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the important one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but think about what might have happened if we had done that against Reynolds.â&#x20AC;? Kerman Pannu and Robert Boroski each scored three goals to lead the Thunder in tournament scoring. Boroski was named to Commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16 all-star team. Tamanawis finished in sixth place overall, three spots up on the Sullivan Heights Stars. South Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Elgin Park placed 13th while Queen Elizabeth rounded out the Surrey delegation at 14th overall.

White Rock, Surrey
We must act fast on tracks, mayors say Cities of White Rock and Surrey make case for railway relocation Christopher Poon Now staff Twitter @questionchris
SOUTH SURREY — “From rails to trails.” It’s a simple and catchy slogan behind a new push from the cities of Surrey and White Rock to look at the potential relocation of the railway tracks from their
shared waterfront. The campaign officially kicked off Tuesday night during a community open house held by both municipalities seeking feedback from residents on what they’d like to see done in the face of increasingly hazardous materials being transported through their communities. Surrey Mayor Dianne Watts led the charge by explaining to the 300 or so in attendance that the rail line currently in use was built more than 100 years ago. “We have seen between 2004 and 2013, about a 1,000 per cent increase in rail traffic,” she said.
Dianne Watts
Wayne Baldwin
Now, with the population growing so rapidly in the area, as well as concerns raised about emergency access to Crescent Beach and the transportation of hazardous goods
such as chlorine, hydrochloric acid and propane through the areas, Watts said it’s time to look at future long-term plans for rail traffic relocation. What that might look like is in the very early stages, but Watts said there were four possible lines that could reduce the need for a waterfront rail line, including one route that could run along Highway 99 parallel to King George Boulevard, or three others that run through east Surrey, near the Langley border. The projects could require 11 to 14 kilometres of new track, depending on the location selected. see RAIL › page 7

The dance floor was packed as Viva Surrey! brought spicy Latin flavour to the city in a fundraiser for Surrey Christmas Bureau on Saturday at St. Bernadette’s hall in Surrey. The event, which featured Latin music, dance and food, raised money to help local low-income families. For more photos, see page 41 or scan this page with Layar. (Photo: GORD GOBLE)

Missed deliveries madden city man Canada Post’s mailbox mandate drives Cloverdale business owner batty SHARE YOUR SIMILAR STORIES WITH
Jacob Zinn Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn
CLOVERDALE — It’s been six weeks since Wayne Sutherland last received mail at his business. Sutherland, owner of Cloverdale Antiques & Fine Art, has been arguing with Canada Post over the mail authority’s insistence that he install a mailbox outside his store. Because he doesn’t have a mailbox, Sutherland said the mailperson skips his business on the route, keeping his letters at the post office. He currently has a sign at his storefront instructing the mailperson to slip his letters through a small gap between the double doors, which he said is how the mail was delivered for decades. “There’s about a half-inch area of air,” he said. “The mailman’s been putting it through since 1948, but I’ve not been receiving my mail.” Following a recent rash of mail theft in Cloverdale and Clayton Heights, Sutherland said he is concerned that thieves could easily reach into a mailbox outside his store. That’s why he’d prefer to have the mail slipped into his business, which is armed with an alarm system. “Attaching an outside mailbox is not secure at all,” he said. “People can just open them and take it out.” Sutherland said other businesses along his street have installed mailboxes because
Over the course of six weeks, the only mail that Wayne Sutherland has received at Cloverdale Antiques & Fine Art is a notice stating that his business needs a mailbox. Sutherland is challenging they’ve had similar dealings with Canada Post. Partway into the ordeal, Sutherland received a notice from Canada Post saying it has had difficulty delivering his mail because he has no mailbox. Ironically, he said the letter went through the slit between his shop’s front doors. “This is the only mail I’ve received in six weeks,” he said. Eugene Knapik, a spokesperson with Canada Post, said having a mailbox or mail slot is a standard requirement for mail

delivery across the country. “If we have a relief employee who’s not familiar with the route, they’re going to look for a mailbox or a mail slot to put the mail,” he said. “Otherwise, it’s going to create unnecessary delays.” Sutherland took up his situation with the Canada Post ombudsperson, asking for the resumption of delivery and a letter of apology. According to Canada Post, the ombudsperson maintained that he needs a mailbox or mail slot that meets its requirements.
“We hope that the customer complies with the ruling of the ombudsman and provides a mailbox or a mail slot,” said Knapik. “Millions of Canadians provide that for delivery.” But despite that, Sutherland still doesn’t see why he should have to add a different slot for the five letters he receives per week. After all, his store went 65 years without one. “I’m just so frustrated – I just want my mail delivered,” he said. jzinn@thenownewspaper.com

City approves 2014 budget, tax increase of 2.9 per cent Gill says fees from suites will help fund Build Surrey Jacob Zinn Now contributor Twitter @jacobzinn
SURREY — On Monday, Surrey city council approved recommendations for the city’s 2014 financial plan at its annual budget meeting, permitting new increases to property taxes and utility fees. Council OK’d a 2.9-per-cent property tax hike – roughly a $44.40 increase for the average home in Surrey – and a $68.94 increase in utilities. The fees break down as follows: $15.31 for a road and traffic levy, $19.36 for water, $19.26 for sewer, $13 for drainage and $2 for garbage. In addition, homeowners with secondary suites will have to pay an extra $15 per year on their suite fees, bringing the total to $410. Based on the previous average of $2,582 for property tax and utilities, homeowners will now have yearly bills around $2,764 – or
$3,174 if they have a suite. “Surrey’s gone through a significant transition over the last number of years and I think that, when you look at some of the issues that we face here in the city, secondary suites has been by far one of the largest issues that I personally have had to deal with as a member of council,” said Coun. Tom Gill, who also chairs the city’s finance committee. “The budget for 2014 articulates revenues of almost $12 million that are going to be coming in from secondary suite fees. These secondary suite fees are really helping us with our infrastructure and much of our capital.” Gill said the revenue collected from secondary suite fees will help fund the city’s Build Surrey projects, including the two pools in Guildford and Grandview. The budget also allows for 12 new police officers, plus five additional support staff. No new firefighters, bylaw officers or animal control officers were budgeted for. jzinn@thenownewspaper.com With files from Amy Reid

City will appoint youth to advisory committees
SWEEPSTAKES
Amy Reid Now staff Twitter @amyreid87
SURREY — Surrey youth will soon have a new opportunity to provide their point of view to the city. On Monday, Surrey council decided to appoint a youth representative to all of the city’s advisory committees. It’s not certain how quickly those representatives will be appointed, but Coun. Tom Gill said council plans to expedite the youth involvement, and hopes all will be in place next year. Gill said the age cap will likely be 24 or 25. “(Monday), we were deciding on the committees and some of the appointments, and we wanted there to kind of be another door of access for the youth,” Gill said. “We felt that given where we are at with the city and given the demographics of our community that, really, we should have some youth. And we’ve had some really great experiences with some of our younger folks in the community giving us some guidance and giving us some insight. So
that’s something we wanted to push.” Gill said that one-third of Surrey’s population is under 19 and the city is looking for opportunities to “groom” youth, in terms of city Tom Gill involvement. “There are a lot of smart, articulate, kind and giving youth out there that really want to be part of the system. I think this opportunity will encourage them to participate at the city,” he said. “This is really an opportunity that will permit the city to kind of really grasp what all realms of the community are thinking, and all ages. And I think that’s kind of the emphasis behind it. It’s a really great initiative. The whole team really was supportive of having that opportunity available.” areid@thenownewspaper.com

Surrey, White Rock
Rail relocation feedback needed before next step White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin began his speech by telling a story of a derailment that could occur during a rainy November day. In his story, Baldwin detailed a waterlogged railway track foundation that simply could not hold any more water and begins to shift, leading to a derailment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a good story, but it could be in our future,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is it likely? Maybe not. Is it possible? Most definitely.â&#x20AC;? Baldwin noted that there have been nine derailments on the track, which is owned and operated by the Burlington Northern Santa Fe in the U.S. While those derailments all came in the trackâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first 50 years â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with the last being in 1956 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; he pointed out that there are still mudslides every year. Rather than wait for something disastrous to happen, he said, the time to act is now. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When this route was first designed and built, there were relatively fewer trains,â&#x20AC;? Baldwin said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We now have 15 to 20 a day, the southbound trains carry a multitude of dangerous goods, including poisonous gases

and molotov fuels, these are not the trains of our grandparentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; days or even that of our parents.â&#x20AC;? When asked who would fund such a project, estimated to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars, Watts said BNSF would be looking to contribute and she was hopeful other levels of government and stakeholders would be as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There are funding partners out there for sure and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no way the cities of White Rock and Surrey are going to raise that and no way weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to raise taxes to do this, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just not going to happen,â&#x20AC;? she said. But before those conversations are to be had, Watts said Surrey and White Rock needed to hear from residents. To do this, the two cities are seeking resident feedback via an online survey that can be found at www.cityspeaks.ca/saferail. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a lot of work to do, a lot of partners to have the conversation with, but at the end of the day, if this can move forward... this can really be something that the community will treasure forever.â&#x20AC;? cpoon@thenownewspaper.com

White Rock music store up for two provincial awards HOME INSPECTORS SURVEY
WHITE ROCK — Tapestry Music needs your votes. The longtime White Rock music shop has been nominated for two Small Business B.C. awards – Premier’s People’s Choice and the Community Impact categories. All voting is done online, until Saturday, Nov. 30, with the awards presented at a ceremony on Feb. 27. To cast your vote, see the nominee pages at http://sbbcawards.ca.
The provincial government is looking for public feedback on an improved regulatory model for home inspectors. There are two online surveys, running from Nov. 25 to Dec. 20: one to seek consumer opinions, the other to solicit feedback from industry and homeinspection professionals.

SURREY — The City of Surrey is asking the federal government for $1.8 billion for its light rail Surrey Rapid Transit Project, as well as a variety of other infrastructure improvements, through the New Building Canada Plan. The federal Economic Action Plan 2013 included the building plan, which will provide $53 billion in funding over 10 years. If approved, the $1.8 billion in funding would go to TransLink. “TransLink would still be responsible. It’s not us,” said Coun. Tom Gill. “This is our humble request to the federal and possibly the provincial government to look at opportunities to fund this... Give the money to TransLink so we can do our system. That’s basically what we’re trying to say.” The report to council said that, approved projects would likely be based on cost-sharing between the federal, provincial and local governments. Gill said transit is the missing piece of the puzzle in Surrey and he is disappointed
TransLink has yet to bless the city’s plans. And he’s further disappointed the province is turning the matter over to referendum. “How do you convince people from Vancouver who are well served that it’s good investment to invest in Surrey? We’ve been patiently waiting with the rapid transit line to Richmond and to the airport... We were really caught off guard in terms of the province’s solution.” Through the New Building Canada Plan, Surrey is also requesting $35 million for a Highway 99/152nd Street Interchange and $6 million for Highway 99/24th Avenue Interchange ramps. The city is also requesting $16 million for a Newton Fitness Addition, $18 million for a new recreation centre in East Clayton as well as $3 million for phase two of the Surrey Museum. Lastly, when it comes to flood control, the city is requesting $20 million to replace the Serpentine-Nicomekl Rivers Sea Dams. The dams were originally constructed in the early ’90s and in 2006, an assessment of the dams showed the structures are not capable of withstanding most earthquakes.

Surrey wins QUEST award for energy system District energy systems are considered clean energy systems that help to conserve energy through improved efficiency over conventional heating and cooling systems and do not contribute to harmful greenhouse gas emissions. Surrey’s organic biofuel facility will be the only fully integrated, closed-loop waste management system in North America upon its 2015 completion. Organic waste collected in Surrey will be processed into fuel and used to power the city’s fleet of waste collection vehicles. Coun. Bruce Hayne, chair of the city’s environmental sustainability advisory committee, attended the QUEST 2013 Conference from Nov. 12 to 14 as a keynote panellist discussing energy in a growing community. “The district energy system and the organic biofuel facility are the results of applying advanced technologies to sound, sustainable city planning,” Hayne said. “I am proud to be part of a city that is forward-thinking and implementing clean energy infrastructure.”

CITY CENTRE — Surrey has received a QUEST Community Energy Builder Award for the development of the district energy system in its downtown core and its planned organic biofuel facility that will turn organic waste into renewable natural gas. QUEST – Quality Urban Energy Systems of Tomorrow – is a national non-profit organization that undertakes research, policy analysis, outreach and capacity building to advance smart energy communities in Canada. “Creating viable clean energy infrastructure is a part of the long-term vision for continuing to build Surrey into a wellplanned, urban centre,” said Mayor Dianne Watts in a release. “It is a part of our overall commitment to sustainability.” Surrey’s district energy system will distribute thermal energy, in the form of steam and heated or cooled water, through a network of pipes to heat, cool and provide hot water for the City Centre Library, the new Surrey city hall, and 3 Civic Plaza, a planned 50-storey mixed-use hotel and residential project.

SURREY — The city’s three latest homicide victims all lived lives of crime, police say. Surrey’s 23rd homicide of the year was recorded early Saturday morning after a fight broke out at a reputed “booze can” in Guildford. Police say the victim, Ronald Richard Lomas, 44, had an “extensive” criminal record dating back to 1986. A second man who was assaulted was sent to hospital, in critical condition, and is in a medically-induced coma. His name has not been released. “He’s expected to survive,” said Sgt. Adam MacIntosh, of the Integrated Homicide Investigation Unit. Roughly 40 people were reportedly at the “booze can,” an illegal after-hours bar, when the fight broke out after 4 a.m. at a house in the 9100-block of 147A Street. Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for IHIT, said police have yet to identify and speak to everyone who was in the house when the assault happened. “We know there are people who may have information that could assist in identifying the suspects involved,” Pound said. “Those individuals should feel morally and ethically obligated to come forward and speak with police.” Surrey RCMP Cpl. Bert Paquet said Surrey isn’t rife with booze cans but noted they are a concern. “They’re definitely not the kind of activities we like to see in any

neighbourhood,” he said. A Surrey man was stabbed three times in his chest and stomach area during an afterhours party at a booze can in Whalley on June 10, 2012, outside a basement suite near 101st Avenue and 132nd Street. Meanwhile, police have also released the names of the two other men who were killed in separate homicides earlier this month. Both were known to police. Mark Winston Berry, 44, was found dead Nov. 18 inside a residence in the 12000block of 99th Avenue in Whalley. He was Surrey’s 22nd homicide victim. Sgt. Jennifer Pound, spokeswoman for the IHIT, noted Berry had “an extensive criminal record” dating back to 1987. “He was known to occasionally stay at the residence where he was found but was not a full-time tenant of the home,” Pound said. She did not reveal how Berry died. “An autopsy was completed which has confirmed that foul play was a factor in his death,” she said. Meanwhile, Surrey’s 21st homicide victim of this year was Corey Bennett, 44. His body was found at a residence in the 2600-block of King George Boulevard on Nov. 9. Pound said Bennett “was known for his significant ties to the drug trade.” Two men have been arrested in Bennett’s killing. Donald James Chad, 30, has been charged with second-degree murder and robbery with a firearm. His alleged accomplice, Matthew Rene Bernard, 27, is charged with manslaughter and robbery with a firearm.

Project Swoop issues 119 costly reminders to drivers Now staff Twitter @tomzytaruk
SURREY — Surrey RCMP’s traffic section issued 119 violation tickets in four hours during its Project Swoop campaign on Friday. Ninety-one of those tickets were for speeding. The others were for failing to wear seatbelts, distracted driving and one motorist was hit with a 24-hour driving prohibition for allegedly driving under the influence of drugs. The campaign was at various highcollision locations throughout Surrey. “Out team was successful in reminding drivers to slow down and adjust their driving for the conditions they encountered,

Santa’s missing pipe not worst offence OddThoughts Bob Groeneveld
I
t is long past time Santa lost his pipe. But I’m divided on revising Clement Clarke Moore’s fabulous poem, A Visit from St. Nicholas, as has been done by an “author and activist” who has deigned to venture into the hinterlands of the Fraser Valley to spread her message of the joy and good cheer of a de-piped Santa Claus. I agree that Moore’s Santa is not a good role model for kids who don’t want to die of cancer, or who are worried that their parents or St. Nick himself might be piping that foul disease into their lungs. But I have to use the same argument I would use against anyone attempting to censor any other important piece of literature based on changing values or even
updated understanding. Huckleberry Finn comes to mind as a quite recently prominent and controversial example. Some people were outraged at attempts to ban a book that had been a mainstay for growing young minds for more than a century. Others were outraged that anyone would be opposed to banning the book. Some of the language – especially some parts of dialogue – in Mark Twain’s book that is deemed objectionable today exposes a reality that existed at the time of the writing. Most of us don’t like that reality – but censoring or banning the book would sweep it under a rug, to be forgotten – and therefore, perhaps, one day repeated. There are important life lessons to be learned from Twain’s seminal novel, and the growth in our social consciousness since its writing can add
substantially to those lessons. Banning any such book would damage an important piece of literature, and censoring it nullifies the additional learning experience that arises from the opportunity to discuss the historical realities with young, impressionable readers. And so likewise, rather than removing the pipe from Santa’s mouth in Moore’s poem, it would be far more instructive to allow youngsters to enjoy the beauty of the words and the lustre of the poet’s imagery. And then, when the reading is done, thoughtful discussion commences. Remind your kids that Santa’s filthy habit was a product of times when people were generally
more ignorant of health issues – not just ignorant about smoking and liferobbing tobacco-related diseases like cancer and emphysema, but also ignorant of the roles that general cleanliness, and brushing your teeth, and eating well play in living longer and healthier lives. Remind them that most people – including moms and dads, and even the Santa look-alikes who help him out all over the world (and without icky smokemakers sticking out of their jolly old faces!) – tend to live longer today than they did when Moore put that pipe in Santa’s mouth. Children can learn from the changing realities that better understanding of the world around us brings. An even bigger issue for me, however, is the missing apostrophe that appears
in so many rewrites – and even direct copies – of Moore’s classic. (It wouldn’t be so bad, if it was a typographical error, but its consistent abuse clearly indicates it has been lost to simple ignorance). ’Twas is a legitimate, albeit no longer often used abbreviation of “it was,” while twas is an outright, ignorant error – not a word, just a common, stupid mistake – yet another assault on the English language, and one more useful lesson

Rotten tomatoes to the people who enter through the exit doors. Huge roses to the older lady I frequently see walking her dog in the neighbourhood. She often carries an extra plastic bag with her to pick up litter as she’s walking. It’s unfortunate that there’s random garbage around to pick up, but good for her for doing that. Thank you! Bouquets of red roses to the staff at Surrey Memorial Hospital for their professional and compassionate care of our loved one D.A.H. in his last days. We appreciate your work. Roses to the people who work at “The Residence at Clayton Heights” in the “Prairie Station” neighbourhood. We are so appreciative of the care you are providing to our loved one. A bouquet of red roses to the people who saved our little papillon, Cherie, when she jumped out of our car and ran away. Two kind ladies, Rosemary and Jeanette, saw Cherie running down 128th Street and knew she was in a panic. Rosemary grabbed a leash from her car and ran after Cherie. The workmen on 128th Street stopped all traffic both ways until Cherie was cornered and leashed. About this time, we decided to go home and the minute we were home, there was a knock on the door. Rosemary told us they had Cherie safe and sound in her mother’s home. We couldn’t believe our prayers to God would be answered so soon. A fire hall of rotten tomatoes to all of those who accept the Delta firefighters using the company time and vehicle to buy groceries.

A load of rotten tomatoes to all the clothing companies that have their products made in Asian countries using cheap labour. The material in most of the clothes is very thin and the sizing of the clothes is terrible. Let’s bring this industry back to our own country. A van full of red roses to Mike, the Telus technician. He stopped on 104th Avenue and 156th Street on Saturday, Nov.16 to help an elderly woman who collapsed on the sidewalk. After seeing he needed help getting her home, we both got her there safely. The world needs more people like you in it! Thank you.
The Editor, Kudos to the City of Surrey for finally ditching those ghastly Christmas street decorations along the streets of Newton near 72nd Avenue and King George Boulevard that we have been subjected to for the past few years. It was unfortunate that Newton got the bargain basement, close-out decorations in the first place. But, as they say, better late than never. The new decorations are a huge upgrade from the old ones and now I don’t have to drive to Whalley to see some attractive decorations. Daniel Allen, Surrey
Rotten tomatoes to the genius in the Surrey engineering department who made the decision to remove the traffic light at Bridgeview and 115th Avenue. Not much thought was put into this one. It can be an absolutely ridiculous wait to make a left-hand turn during rush hour with constant traffic coming off the South Fraser Perimeter Road. Try it in one of your semi trucks and let us know how you made out. It’s clear no consideration was given to the area’s businesses. It’s time to do a real traffic flow analysis. A van full of bloodied, stinking, rotten, decaying tomatoes to the guy who ran over and killed our beloved 11-year-old family pet, of all places in the 64th Avenue alley. It was obvious to me you weren’t even going to stop but when you saw me fly out from between the parked cars where our dog was, you stopped and said he just came out of nowhere. I’m still trying to figure out what or how I’m going to tell my three-year-old son – he keeps saying, “where’s Bailey?”It’s been a nightmare so far – slow down and beware of your surroundings. Thanks again.
Trades program worthy of kudos The Editor, Re: “Program gives students a head start on post-secondary,” the Now, Nov. 19. I have long admired the opportunities presented by our school district in the trades/career courses and hoped to see that spread to other fields of study. I was therefore really pleased to read
about Fraser Heights’ initiative in offering opportunities for students to earn postsecondary credits in math and science. This is a great way to expand on similar opportunities presented by the International Baccalaureate and Advanced Placement programs, where students can obtain credit for post-secondary institutions as a result of successfully completing an exam. This new Math and Science Academy offers similar benefits in allowing students to earn first year post-secondary credits while simultaneously completing their graduation requirements. Despite the $150 fee for each of the grades 11 and 12 years, this program provides students and their families a substantial savings in both time and money as well as an opportunity to accelerate post-secondary training. Kudos to Fraser Heights, SFU Surrey and the Surrey school district for moving ahead with this program. Linda Stromberg, Surrey

Concert in Surrey on Dec. 6
Streetheart: Past, present and future action Several memorable, riffy hits have kept Kenny Shields and band on stage since the 1970s SEE VIDEO OF INTERVIEW AND â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;UNDER MY THUMBâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; CLIP FROM 1979

The Kenny Shields-led band Streetheart performs Friday, Dec. 6 at Bell Performing Arts Centre in Surrey, dishing out hits such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here Comes the Nightâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tin Soldier.â&#x20AC;? Winter Olympics at the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Celebration Siteâ&#x20AC;? at Holland Park, in the big indoor bar set up for the occasion. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was a great gig there, I recall,â&#x20AC;? Shields said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a great moment, a great time â&#x20AC;&#x201C; there wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really a bad vibe around, just a pretty simple, straight-ahead
gig. Everybody was there to have fun.â&#x20AC;? Back before Streetheart was formed, Shields sang in Witness Incorporated, a Saskatoon-based band that had a few regional hits and the good fortune to land some plum opening slots. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In Edmonton one night, we get a knock

â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do get that sometimes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oh, that song! That was you guys?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Kenny Shields is on the phone with the Now from Winnipeg, where the Streetheart bandleader has made his home for nearly half of his music-filled life. Streetheart isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t instantly recognizable in photographs (for proof, see example at right), but many of the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s songs are the kind that, for many people of a certain age, fuel a drive down memory lane, back to the late-1970s and early 1980s. On the radio, it was a time for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Action,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hollywood,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Here Comes the Night,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;What Kind of Love is Thisâ&#x20AC;? and other Streetheart hits, among others. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It does happen, although not that often, I guess, where people come up to me and say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know you did â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tin Soldier,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Shields noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That one surprises a lot of people when theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re told it was ours.â&#x20AC;? Streetheart has enough past hits that it can still draw fans to a soft-seater the size of Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bell Performing Arts Centre, where the band is set to perform on Friday, Dec. 6. Tickets are $39.50 via 604-507-6355 and www.bellperformingartscentre.com. In Surrey, one of the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most memorable gigs was during the 2010
on the door and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eric Clapton (then with Cream), standing there with snakeskin boots, and he wants to know if our guitar player has a wah-wah pedal he could borrow. Well, our guitar player carried that little wah-wah pedal around in his hands for weeks after that, cherishing it.â&#x20AC;? The song of another British band, the Rolling Stones, has been a must-play song in Streetheart sets since 1979. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We originally played â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Under My Thumbâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; live because we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have enough originals to fill our set,â&#x20AC;? Shields revealed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It turned out that we could play that song at the beginning, in the middle of the set or as the encore, and it always seemed to get the same kind of buzz.â&#x20AC;? The recorded, slightly disco-ized version of the song became a significant hit for Streetheart, and it served to ignite the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And the longevity â&#x20AC;&#x201C; we still get an incredible reaction when we start playing the first couple of bars of it, you know,â&#x20AC;? said Shields, a big Stones fan who recorded a version of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Angieâ&#x20AC;? for Letting Go, his new solo record of cover songs. The album, which can be found on iTunes, also includes remakes of Brenda Leeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Sorryâ&#x20AC;? and The Eaglesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Best of My Love.â&#x20AC;? Shieldsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; high, soaring voice has stood out on Streetheart songs since the beginning. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In those smoke-filled rooms back in the day, doing six nights a week, I used to drink tea and honey just to get through and keep my voice good enough,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that anymore. I do have a Korean herbal cough syrup that looks like molasses, and I use that as a remedy before and after (performances). Things really have changed with the no-smoking laws now; it used to be that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d come out of a bar looking like an ashtray, you know, and it was rough on the voice sometimes. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice change for a guy like me, but it probably does piss off all the smokers, for sure.â&#x20AC;?

NEWTON â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Most record producers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t 24 years old, but then again, most record producers arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like lifelong Surreyite Aneil Kainth. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let his young age fool you; Kainth, also known as DJ Intense, has been producing bhangra, R&B and hip-hop music for more than a decade. He got his start using downloaded software to remix songs for fun when he was 12 years old. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a few cousins who were DJs, so I wanted to follow some of my cousins and I decided to become a DJ myself,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I started making remixes of Indian songs and started throwing those remixes out over social media â&#x20AC;&#x201C; back then it was MSN messenger, emailing, forums. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As I started getting good responses, I continued on and started developing my style, my whole production technique.â&#x20AC;? As Kainth became a teenager, he got more serious about producing, spending hours on end mixing and mastering songs. It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t long after that his parents pushed him to get a formal education. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My parents were like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;This is all you do all day, what are you going to do with your life?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he recalled with a laugh. Kainth enrolled in Stylus College of Music & Sound Technology in New Westminster,
where he learned music theory and how to produce indie rock. He translated those skills into producing other genres, including Bollywood-style tracks and Indian/hip-hop fusion. The schooling paid off and Kainth is finding himself with more work than ever. In the last 18 months, he has released two albums (More Than Just a DJ and SophistaFolk) and started his own record label, IMM Entertainment, with business partner the Teflon Don. Not only that, but their label â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which has signed more than 17 artists from across the globe â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is being picked up by Universal Music Aneil Kainth India. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I went out to India in February and March, and I built a lot of connections,â&#x20AC;? said Kainth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re launching our debut album as a company in December. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s when Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be taking off to Bombay to launch through Universal Music India.â&#x20AC;? Kainth is preparing for a long stay in India, and a busy year ahead: He has three albums dropping between now and the end of 2014, and a new track titled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Party Dha Moodâ&#x20AC;? coming out in an undisclosed film. He will also get to work alongside renowned Bollywood and bhangra singer/songwriter Mika Singh. But Kainth promises that while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overseas, he wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t forget about Surrey â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in fact, he intends to represent the city where he got his start in producing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m born and bred here and this is what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing, and my plan is to put Surrey on the map,â&#x20AC;? he said.

WHITE ROCK — People here are gearing up to kick off the holiday season this weekend with two big events, Christmas on the Peninsula and Christmas on the Drive. Starting Saturday, Nov. 30, White Rock’s Uptown area will be taken over by the fifth annual Christmas on the Peninsula, which will feature a wide range of Christmas activities spread across town. “Every year this becomes bigger and better in all the different areas,” said event founder and director Liv Butow. “Every year I like to get more entertainers, more carolers, more participants, more decorations, more costumes. It grows steadily every year in all different areas, and that’s exactly how we want it to grow.” This year’s events will include Victorian carolers, a “Breakfast in Bethlehem,” story telling, a Christmas treasure hunt and of course, plenty of holiday treats. There will also be craft and ornament making and much more held at various venues in the Uptown area, including a tree lighting ceremony and Christmas parade. “This is the first event
of the year, so we kind of kick off the Christmas season for people on the peninsula,” said Butow. “It’s really nice people can come together and enjoy themselves and I love this community for that.” Christmas on the Peninsula runs from 8:30 a.m. to 6:15 p.m. For event information and the schedule, go to christmasonthepeninsula. com. The following day, on Saturday, Dec. 1, White Rock’s waterfront will also get the holiday treatment with Christmas on the Drive. The event, put on by White Rock Museum & Archives, White Rock BIA, Semiahmoo Arts, In White Rock and the city, will be the official lighting up of Marine Drive for the holiday season. Running from 3:30 to 5 p.m., Christmas on the Drive will feature the lighting of the Drive, a choir performance, carol singing, a chance to meet Rudolph, Frosty and Santa as well as a tree-lighting ceremony. The event will end with a performance by the Vancouver Fire Spinners. Christmas on the Drive will take place at the White Rock Museum & Archives, 14970 Marine Dr.

ArtsScene Melanie Minty Columnist
A
s we approach the winter solstice (and the days get shorter), isn’t it just cheerful to have all the lights out and a festive atmosphere? Sure it is. It’s tradition. And nothing is more traditional for the season than a pantomime. Part of my yearly tradition is to explain that a pantomime is definitely not the same as mime, wherein a person in white face acts out a story without using words. A pantomime, on the other hand, is full of noise, singing, cheering, dancing and colourful characters. Usually based on a fairy tale, the traditional pantomime uses role reversal (the Dame is played by a man, and the principal boy – the hero – is played by a girl), groaner jokes, audience participation (cheer the hero, boo the villain) and a chorus of children to tell the story. While the adult actors and dancers are essential, I think the children’s chorus is the most endearing and essential part of the pantomime. For many kids, this is a first venture in being part of a live-theatre production, and a training ground. Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society has always had a strong children’s chorus, and some have graduated from the chorus to professional careers. My daughter is one of these panto grads who had her first performance experience with the FVGSS
pantos. I am grateful for the experience, even though we first got involved with the society at her insistence. She wanted to have a career in musical theatre (and she does) but 10year-olds are not really allowed to be part of the show without a parent being present backstage. And so we began a career together. It has proved to be one of the biggest gifts in my life. I graduated as well from backstage to onstage – although nobody pays me to be there! Ah well. Welcome to the arts. FVGSS’s 2013 pantomime, The Frog Princess, started its run at Surrey Arts
Centre’s mainstage on Wednesday, Nov. 27, with the opening on Friday, Nov. 29. It only runs for two weeks, so don’t delay in getting tickets. The last week is traditionally sold out. Bring your children. It might change their lives, and yours. At the very least, it is an enjoyable family outing. Mike Balser is the artistic director, Carol Seitz (my dance teacher) is the choreographer and Timothy Tucker is musical director. I have been privileged to work with all of these people, and it changed my life. The Frog Princess is an original work
written by Mike Balser, Cathy Wilmot and Norma Rushton, its story based on the Russian fairy tale. The show runs Wednesday to Saturday from 7:30 p.m., with matinee showings also on the calendar. Tickets are on sale now through the Surrey Arts Centre box office, 604-501-5566. After the opening show on Friday, the cast is stationed in the lobby for autographs – just part of the tradition. Music is a big part of the Christmas season, in addition to pantomimes. While secular songs assault our senses in every mall and shopping area, some of you out there will likely look forward to the annual presentation of Handel’s Messiah. This beloved Christmas tradition, with its magnificent music, is performed by the Handel Society of Music choir with Chilliwack Metropolitan Orchestra and soloists on Saturday, Dec. 7, 7:30 p.m., at Good Shepherd Church, 2250 150th St., South Surrey. Tickets are $20 each, or $15 for seniors and students (available at the door, also via 604-585-9102). This is an incredible experience – one you can add to your traditional seasonal activities. melminty@telus.net

A tale of two game consoles DotComrade Christopher Poon Columnist

ell, this is it. At long last, the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are out, ushering in the next generation of gaming. With the Xbox One having released last weekend and the PS4 a week before that, the next generation has become the current. While I have yet to get my hands on an Xbox One, I have been able to play a few hours on the PS4 and I will say one thing, the controller is fantastic. Gone is the blocky, uncomfortable
feel of the PlayStation 3 controller that worked so well with past iterations of the console. While the first two PlayStations were served well by the design, it was clear that something needed to change when the Xbox 360 debuted its sleeker, smoother controller. Now, the PS4 controller boasts contours similar to the Xbox 360’s, a popular design that was carried over to the Xbox One. While I have not picked up either of the new consoles, I will be purchasing a PS4 over the Xbox One. Previously, I chose the Xbox 360 over the PS3, a decision I’ve never regretted. see › page 23
New game systems PlayStation 4 (top) and the Xbox One have very similar innards, and both are very capable machines. Columnist Christopher Poon says he’s going to buck up for the Sony-made PS4, not the Microsoft product.

service, isn’t winning it any points in my books. I’m definitely going to miss several Xboxexclusive IPs when I make the move back to Sony, as I’ve invested good chunks of time into the likes of Halo and Forza. The concept behind the Xbox One is that it’s supposed to be the only system you’ll ever need in your living room. It will play your DVDs and Blu-Rays, allow you to surf the internet, run your cable box through it and provide the gloriousness that is Netflix. To be honest, there will always be better devices to do all of the above and, for me, all I really want is a gaming console. The PS4 is just that: a gaming device without the frills, though it can also do the aforementioned, sans cable box connectivity. But don’t let me sway you either way. Really, the two consoles have very similar innards and both are very capable machines from a hardware perspective. The difference in pricing may also be enough to sway buyers, as the PS4 comes in at $399 while the Xbox One commands a heftier $499, likely due to the accompanying Kinect. My advice for anyone with a bit of patience: Wait a few months for the kinks to be ironed out and for the consoles to become more readily available. There will be more games available, more people to play with online and more bugs and glitches already identified and fixed.
Don’t miss your opportunity to see this unique show that delights audiences of all ages.

To me, the Xbox 360 was the superior console of the two and provided a better user experience overall. Prior to that, I had a PlayStation 2, instead of an Xbox – see a pattern here? Of course, my decision to leave Microsoft and return to Sony has nothing to do with simply keeping things tit for tat, but rather a consumer decision based on Microsoft’s apparent contempt for its customers when the Xbox One was announced earlier this year. At that time, the Xbox One was slated to be always online, required a mandatory camera and microphone accessory (Kinect) and would not allow the sharing and lending of games. Microsoft has since pulled a 180 on those policies, responding to outrage in the gaming community, and now the Xbox One functions similarly to the much-loved Xbox 360 (though you still can’t purchase one without a Kinect). Sure, it’s great that Microsoft “listened” to gamers in reversing its policies, but after having claimed that changing the console back to what consumers wanted wouldn’t be as easy as “flipping a switch,” and then promptly flipping said switch, who’s to say Microsoft won’t revert back to its intended policies once people have an Xbox One in their homes? Additionally, Microsoft’s desire to whore out its Xbox interface to advertisers, despite it being a user-paid

Wes Barker, a Surrey-based magician, is a finalist in the Exposed! talent contest staged by The Comedy Network. The winner will be named on Dec. 2. “I’m stoked, this is big,” Barker said. “It’s hard getting a meeting with producers and getting my name in front of these people, to show them what I’ve got.” To see Barker’s video entry in the contest, scan this page with the Layar app or visit http://exposed.thecomedynetwork.ca.

SURREY — Wes Barker isn’t shy about wanting his own comedy show. The Surrey resident, 27, who works as a “stunt magician” at college campuses and other venues, is a top-five finalist in The Comedy Network’s “Exposed!” talent contest. To enter, contestants had to submit a video clip of them performing a stunt in nothing more than their underwear. The prize is $5,000 cash and a chance to develop a pilot for the TV channel. “The pilot is why I’m doing this,” Barker told the Now. “They can keep the money for all I care, it’s the pilot I want.… I’ve had an idea for a pilot for a long time.”

WHITE ROCK — Susanne de Pencier is proudly retired, which has been a very good thing over the past couple of months. The director of Rumpelstiltskin, the latest pantomime from White Rock Susanne de Pencier Players’ Club, says she’s worked an average of three hours a day on the production – at home, away from the theatre – since planning began. Her level of commitment to the show is matched, and possibly even surpassed, by the actors, crew and others involved. “I don’t think I’d be able to do this if I wasn’t retired,” said de Pencier with a laugh. “It’s a huge job, and it takes over your whole life. I don’t know how people can do something like this and have a regular day job, so I really do respect the people who are doing this show who come from work to rehearsal. It’s a huge commitment.” The panto’s month-long run at Coast Capital Playhouse begins this week, with
LEFT: Bryce Mills (left, as M the Dame) and Nigel Watkinson (as Q) in the James Bond-esque pantomime Rumpelstiltskin, staged by White Rock Players’ Club at Coast Capital Playhouse starting this week. ABOVE: MacKenzie Claus as Penny Money.
opening night on Friday, Nov. 29. “It takes a lot of love of the theatre to strap yourself to that length of a run, especially during Christmas, and they’re all doing a great job,” de Pencier added, noting that nearly double the number of people showed up for auditions than required. “That’s a nice problem to have,” she said. “There was some really great talent, and some tough decisions had to be made. We got a lot of new people but also experienced people, so it’s not starting from scratch, either.” This year, for its 59th annual panto, the company has shaken and stirred the Rumpelstiltskin story by injecting the late-
’60s look and feel of James Bond/Austin Powers movies. In this Dave Baron-penned tale, Jimmy Bond must rescue his love, Penny Money, from the scheming Squire Goldringer and his henchmen (or henchanimals, as the story goes). “It’s fun, and it’s a bit different – all the great elements of pantomime but it’s not all that trundle skirts and puffy sleeves and princesses and long dresses kind of thing,” de Pencier said. “We have a few of those fairy tale kind of costumes, too, but also the go-go boots and wild colours, stuff like that, which makes it more fun, I think, and it’s still nostalgic – not of this era.” Bryce Mills is back as the flamboyant
dame, which pleases de Pencier. “Bryce is a standout dame, I think – he’s so good at it, and I really hope he does it for a few more years,” she said. “People are coming to this year’s show, I’m sure, just because they know he’s in it again.” Also opening Friday (Nov. 29) is The Frog Princess, the panto produced by Fraser Valley Gilbert & Sullivan Society for a twoweek run at Surrey Arts Centre (for more, see Melanie Minty’s column on page 20). Meanwhile, Royal Canadian Theatre Company is busy preparing a panto version of Cinderella for the arts centre stage at Bear Creek Park from Dec. 20 to 29. tzillich@thenownewspaper.com

Mushroom: not your ordinary plant or vegetable OnCooking Chef Dez Columnist
O
ne of the most unique foods that we consume on a regular basis is mushrooms.
Unlike any ordinary vegetable or plant, mushrooms are actually members of the fungus family. They are produced from spores rather than seeds, and therefore lack the familiar plant traits of leaves, flowers and roots. During the development of normal plants, nutrition is absorbed by not only the
root system, but also by the presence of chlorophyll in the green leaves and stems. Mushrooms on the other hand must find other ways to derive nutrition to aid in their maturation. In order to do this, they adhere themselves to different organic matter and feed on the nutritional elements that are naturally
found there. Although there are thousands of different varieties of mushrooms, less than 20 species are cultivated commercially. The most standard varieties we find in the local retail markets are the white button (common mushroom), crimini, shiitake, portabella (aka portobello),

oyster and occasionally enoki mushrooms. White button are the most commonly used mushrooms that we are all most familiar with. Therefore, they are the most recognizable mushroom and the most widely cultivated variety. Crimini look like brown button mushrooms but are actually immature portabella mushrooms and thus more delicate in texture than fully grown portabellas. Shiitake mushrooms originated in Asia. They are dark brown, have a smoky and somewhat nutty flavour, and the tough woody stems are usually discarded. Portabellas are very large with their tops ranging anywhere from seven to 12
centimetres and are known as the steak of all mushrooms. Oyster mushrooms are fluted and their stems are usually grouped together. They have a mild flavour that some say is reminiscent of oysters. Enoki mushrooms are the smallest and most delicate of the varieties listed here. They grow in clusters of small white caps on long thin stems that are usually six to 10 centimetres long. Occasionally, mushrooms are served as the principal component of a dish, such as stuffed mushrooms; however, they are usually added to a recipe as one of the ingredients or see › page 35

accompaniments, such as in soups, salads, omelets and pizzas for example. They are available not only fresh, but also dried and canned as well. If you are buying dried mushrooms, rehydrate for approximately 30 minutes in just enough warm water to cover them, and reserve the flavoured residual liquid to add to recipes along with the refreshed mushrooms themselves. Canned mushrooms are usually just the ones of the white common variety and
AS35
come in whole, slices or pieces. Despite being convenient, canned mushrooms lack the same nutritional value as fresh mushrooms due to the processing procedures involved. Many non-cultivated wild mushrooms can be very poisonous, and even lethal. To be safe, you should always avoid eating any wild mushrooms unless you are professionally trained to recognize the different varieties that naturally grow in the wild.

7 Simple Tips for Choosing Kid Tech Tools from the team at Sylvan Learning Computers, video games, mobile phones and tablets are ubiquitous in our lives and the lives of our kids. Parents want to embrace technology to facilitate their children’s learning. But with so much technology available, how are parents supposed to know which tools and activities will actually help build skills?

Every day new resources appear in our apps stores and we’re bombarded with all the ’Best of’ and ‘Top 10’ lists. Parents should look for reviews and endorsements by reliable sources, including educational organizations, before giving their children access to any new tech resource. To help parents make good choices with digital media, Sylvan Learning is offering seven simple guidelines for selecting new tech tools and apps: 1. Does it focus on active learning? Choose educational
tools and activities that are interactive rather than passive, such as TV and DVDs. 2. What skills does it reinforce? Look for skills like eye-hand coordination, memorization, computation, dexterity, critical thinking and creativity. 3. Does it allow your child to practice the skill? When a program or activity says it teaches a skill, then it should provide practice with that skill and explain how the skill building is accomplished. 4. Does it provide feedback? Effective technology provides feedback on performance to help your child build their skills and confidence. 5. Is it age appropriate? Check the age and skill level to make sure they are a good match for your child’s current developmental level. 6. Is it user-friendly? Your child should be able to understand and navigate the
technology, so that it fosters engagement and enjoyment. 7. Does it include ads? Some free or “lite” versions of apps or programs include ads. Before your child uses the program, you can review the content first and vet the ads. You can also opt to forgo apps that include ads. When used effectively, technology helps enable and empower our children’s educational lives. The key lies in monitoring kids’ electronic use. There’s no substitute for parental involvement when it comes to encouraging our children to learn. Playing educational games with our kids is a great way to encourage their academic progress. Also, as parents we need to remember to model good behavior and limit our own screen time.

THE HOLIDAY SEASON IS IN FULL SWING! People are busy attending gettogethers or meeting friends to watch a game and some of these activities may involve a few drinks. If your festivities include alcohol, plan ahead for a safe ride home before you head out. While attitudes towards drinking and driving have changed considerably since the launch of CounterAttack more than 35 years ago, there are still people who take chances or make excuses for drinking and driving. Impaired driving remains a leading cause of car crash fatalities in B.C. Every December, an average of five people are killed on our roads in crashes involving impaired driving. These are preventable tragedies and that’s why police across the province are dedicated and will be out in full force targeting impaired drivers at CounterAttack roadchecks. We all know that alcohol can affect one’s judgement, reaction time, coordination and visual functions. Behind the wheel that means it affects your ability to steer, control your speed and
lane position, track moving objects and brake appropriately. And the truth is no amount of coffee, food or fresh air can sober you up.

It was a back and forth game like that right to the end.” The early exchange of touchdowns set the tone for the remainder of the contest. The Rams were led by star wide receiver Marcus Davis, who scored five touchdowns for the province’s top-ranked team. Lord Tweedsmuir countered with star tailback Jamel Lyles, who carried the ball 28 times for 198 yards and four majors. Tight end Jeff Godard scored the other major on a 60-yard pass TD pass from Lyles out of the wildcat formation. “We scored five touchdowns and their offence scored five touchdowns,” Thornton said. “The difference in the game was a pick-six interception by Marcus Davis.

The Lord Tweedsmuir Panthers came close, but could not pull off the comefrom-behind upset against the defending provincial champions in the class AAA football semifinals at UBC Saturday. The Panthers gave up two early touchdowns before digging in their heels and battling back, but the early deficit was too much to overcome in a 39-33 loss to Victoria’s Mount Douglas Rams. “Our kids pushed back hard,” said Panthers coach Kurt Thornton. “I think we rattled them pretty good several times — five times we pulled to within six points in that game. They went up 12-0 and, honestly, the kids could have threw the towel

They lined him up wide and hit him deep a couple of times.” Thornton added he was disappointed with the chippy play by the Rams, who were clearly frustrated when the Panthers wouldn’t roll over and quit like so many of their previous opponents. “They’re a dirty team,” he said. “There were a lot of unsportsmanlike penalties called against them. There’s a difference between being physical and being dirty. We’ve played some tough physical teams — Terry Fox and Mouat are both physical teams that play to the whistle, but they’re not dirty. With Mount Doug, they kicked one of our players in the (groin) and they were twisting ankles on the bottom of the
pile. It was pretty gross.” The game came down to final two minutes of play. The Rams looked like they were going to ice the affair when they set up with first-and-goal from the one-yard line, but Panthers defender Michael Carter forced a fumble to give the Cloverdale boys one last breath of life. Tweedsmuir moved the ball out to midfield, but the drive ended when the Panthers were forced to turn the ball over on downs. “I was really proud of our kids; they were phenomenal,” Thornton said. “It was the biggest game of the year and they played well enough to win. They left it all on the field and the way they responded to adversity was everything you can ask for as a coach. But to be that close and not quite close it out, that’s tough to accept.”

We just have to find a way to win more of those one-goal games. We have to be more successful with either keeping the lead or finding a way to get one more goal in those situations. We’re close and now we have to find a way to put a streak together.”
Surrey goalie Devon Fordyce stopped 20 shots to earn the win. Schaefer was happy to get the win, but noted the Eagles need to develop more consistency in their play in close games. “We’ve had so many games determined by one goal this year,” he said. “We’re right

Home ice made all the difference as the Surrey Eagles and Merritt Centennials traded wins in a home-and-home set in B.C. Hockey League action last weekend. The Centennials outlasted the Eagles 5-4 in Merritt on Friday night only to have the Eagles answer with a 2-1 win on Saturday in South Surrey. “We played a run-and-gun game up there and a good playoff-style game here at home,” said Eagles coach Peter Schaefer. “We kept getting the lead and then giving it up when we played in Merritt, but the second game was much better. Hopefully we can learn from the second game what is the right way to play and to win.” At South Surrey Arena Saturday night, the Eagles were on their best behaviour with a close-checking and intense effort. Merritt opened the scoring on the power-play early in the first period and protected that lead for almost 40 minutes until Surrey pulled even on a Jonah Renouf goal 40 seconds into the final frame. Eagles’ forward Danton Heinen then bagged the game winner seven minutes later on the power play.
The Eagles started the weekend in Merritt where they abandoned the attention to defensive detail that has proven to be successful for them in the past. Instead, the Surrey players found themselves caught up in a shootout and were unable to pull out the win. Surrey took the lead four times in the contest and each time Merritt answered with a goal of their own to pull even with the defending BCHL champions. The Centennials struck for two goals 23 seconds apart late in the second period to take the lead for the first time in the game at 5-4. Merritt goalie Devin Kero turned aside all 13 Surrey shots he faced in the third period to seal the win. “We played hard, we just didn’t play smart,” Schaefer said. “It was almost like the guys were cheating and trying to score too much when we got the lead instead of playing the right way and trying to protect the lead. “There were a lot of weird bounces in their small rink; it’s very similar to playing in Coquitlam.” Renouf, Darius Davidson, Brett Mulcahy and Luke Sandler each scored once in a losing cause for Surrey.

Undefeated run leaves Community Appreciation Day Panorama Ridge in fifth Michael Booth Now staff Twitter @boothnow

Come decorate with us
One minor blotch on their record spelled doom for the Panorama Ridge Thunder at the B.C. High School Senior Boys AAA Soccer Championships in Burnaby last weekend. The Fraser Valley champions went undefeated in the tournament, but wound up in fifth place thanks to a 1-1 draw with Reynolds in preliminary round play. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wasted one opportunity all weekend and it came back to bite us,â&#x20AC;? said Thunder co-coach Paul Nowakowski. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a single knockout tournament and you just canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have any letdowns. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no room for error because every team is good when you get to provincials. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We lost one game all year and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose a game at the provincials and have nothing to show for it. Those are tough circumstances, but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say enough about our boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; character and determination. Of course itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappointing to end up fifth like that, but it just makes our guys even more determined for next season.â&#x20AC;? The Thunder opened the tourney on Thursday with a solid 2-0 win over Mount Baker, but stumbled in their next outing with a tie against Reynolds. The Newton boys returned to form with a 4-0 win Friday morning over South Kamloops only to discover the significance of the opportunity they squandered against Reynolds when the round-robin standings were posted. The Thunder and Reynolds finished in a tie for first place, forcing a shootout between the two teams
to determine who would advance to the semifinal round. The Victoria squad prevailed on spot kicks and Panorama Ridge was officially out of title contention. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As much of a downer as it was to lose that shootout, the way the guys responded was really impressive,â&#x20AC;? Nowakowski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were back on the field within the hour against a very good team from McMath and to see the way the guys bounced back to get a 4-2 win really showed me what this team was all about. It was great to see.â&#x20AC;? The win over McMath lifted the Thunder into the fifth-place game against the only team to beat them this season, the archrival Tamanawis Wildcats. Panorama Ridge lead 2-1 late in the contest only to have the Wildcats claw back and tie the game to force a shootout. The Thunder would not be denied a second time on spot kicks, scoring on four chances to win 4-2. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This time we took care of business in the shootout and won it,â&#x20AC;? Nowakowski said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So we won one of two shootouts, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the important one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but think about what might have happened if we had done that against Reynolds.â&#x20AC;? Kerman Pannu and Robert Boroski each scored three goals to lead the Thunder in tournament scoring. Boroski was named to Commissionerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16 all-star team. Tamanawis finished in sixth place overall, three spots up on the Sullivan Heights Stars. South Surreyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Elgin Park placed 13th while Queen Elizabeth rounded out the Surrey delegation at 14th overall.
