A police service dog waskilled in a crash early yes-terday morning in Rich-mond.
“The only thing I canhope for is that (thedeath) was painless andhappened rather quickly,”said Richmond RCMP Cpl.Sherrdean Turley, follow-ing the death of Bo, a two-year-old Germanshepherd.
A police dog handlerwas responding to a theftnear the Britannia Ship-yards in Steveston at 1:30a.m. yesterday when a col-lision between a policecruiser and another vehi-cle occurred at Westmin-ster Highway and No. 7Road.
The police cruiser thenstruck a hydro pole.
“It was an unfortunateset of circumstances,” Tur-ley said. “The car hap-pened to hit the poleright where Bo was seat-ed.”
Damage to the policevehicle was extensive,while the civilian in thevehicle was relatively un-scathed. Paramedics treat-ed the occupants of thevehicles who were unin-
jured.

MLA won’t lose seat after spending scandalFormer B.C. solicitor gener-al Kash Heed will not losehis seat in the provinciallegislature over a spendingscandal that has envelopedhis election campaign.
A lawyer for theprovince’s chief electoral of-ficer agreed with Heed’sown lawyer at a B.C.Supreme Court hearing inKelowna yesterday that therookie MLA should not lose
his Vancouver seat for ex-ceeding by $5,000 the$70,000 campaign-spendinglimit set out in the ElectionsAct.
It remains to be seenwhether Heed will have topay the penalty set out inthe act for such a violation— a $10,000 fine. The judgereserved his decision in thecase. Heed’s lawyer, DavidGruber, said his client acted
in good faith and should notbe penalized.
“It was the evidence ofMr. Heed and the financialagent that they didn’t knowabout those expenses,” Gru-ber said outside the court af-ter the hearing.
Heed has twice beenforced to step down as solic-itor general because of theallegations surroundingcampaign spending on two
controversial pamphletsdistributed in his riding dur-ing the 2009 provincial elec-tion campaign andpayments to campaignworkers. In April, a prosecu-tor announced 14 chargesagainst two of Heed’s cam-paign aides, but said therewas no evidence the formerWest Vancouver police chiefknew of the financial irreg-ularities.

The Capilano River’ssalmon and trout popula-tion are increasing as ef-forts to safeguard themfrom hazards created by theCleveland Dam continue.
Metro Vancouver watercommittee chair TimStevenson explained that a“trap and truck” programprevents fish from dying inthe fall from the reservoirat the top of the dam to theriver at the bottom by cap-
turing them on one sideand releasing them on theother.
As a result, the protectedCapilano watershed’s fishpopulations are becomingmore self-sustaining.
“The next generationwill get what we received— and probably better, be-cause of the work we’re do-ing around the salmon,”predicted Stevenson.

When Twitter goes fromfun, games and Bieber loveto mean trending topics, itbecomes a form of bullying,an expert says.
“When you look at taunt-ing and teasing within Twit-ter ... that type of bullyingcan drive a person to someserious depths of despair,”said Tim Richardson, socialmedia expert and e-com-merce professor at the Uni-versity of Toronto.
Trending topics like#whatmakesablackgirlmadillustrate how Twitter canbecome a platform for nega-
tive stereotyping and cyber-bullying, said Richardson.
Last week, Twittershowed its mean streakagain when users beganposting hundreds of tweetssuggesting overweight peo-ple fear exercise, lettuce andthe middle seat on flights.
“People were sayingthese things that are sohurtful that they would nev-er have the guts to say inperson,” said Sam Tremblay,22, who tweeted to criticizethe #fatpeoplenightmareshash tag.
Richardson said manyTwitter users do not thinktwice before tweeting be-cause they can hide behindthe anonymity of the Inter-
net.“The thing with Twitter
is that people are distancedfrom the pain that they’re
causing other people, and sothey will do these thingsmore easily,” Richardsonsaid.
Mob mentality yielding meantweets on negative stereotypes
Tim Richardson, e-commerce professor at U of T, has
examined the effects of group dynamics in trending-topic
discussions that encourage users to tweet comments that
reinforce negative stereotypes.
#fatpeoplenightmares was trending topic across Canada and the U.S. for nearly 31 hours last week

NASA ’nauts take final spacewalk
In an image made from video, astronauts Ronald Garan Jr., top, and Michael Fossum work outside the International

Astronauts making the lastspacewalk of NASAs space-shuttle era yesterday re-trieved a broken pumpfrom the InternationalSpace Station and installeda fill-er-up experiment fora robot.
In a departure from pre-vious shuttle visits, thespacewalking job fell tospace-station astronautsMichael Fossum andRonald Garan Jr.. Theycompleted the two majorchores inside of 31⁄2 hours.
The ammonia coolantpump stopped workinglast July and, for more thantwo weeks, left the spacestation with only half itscooling capability. Space-station residents had toperform three emergencyspacewalks last summer toreplace the pump and
restore full cooling to allthe on-board equipment.
NASA wants the pumpbrought back to Earth soengineers can figure outwhy it failed to help themkeep the on-board stationpumps running.
But perhaps more thananything else on this finaljourney by a shuttle, therobotic demo illustratesthe possibilities ahead forNASA: satellite-refuellingstations in space runby robots.
The space station’s two-armed robot Dextre won’ttackle the $22.6-millionplayset until long after Atlantis departs and theshuttle program ends.

The resolution,spearheaded byGermany, also called onall countries to take ac-tion to help stop thegrowing practice.
“Because children arevery often the firstvictims of violence andconflict, we must dowhat we can to protectthem,” Westerwelle said.

A CHANCE TOEMPOWERCHILDREN
My youngest daughter,Chloe, has been bugging me
for years to coach her house-leaguesoccer team. I remember how cool it waswhen my dad coached me at soccer as akid, so I finally stepped up this springand volunteered, having no real idea ofwhat the heck I was getting myself into— or the learning curve involved.
One of my biggest fears, other than the timeinvolved, was this: You take an ultra-competitive guywho played all-star soccer growing up and put him incharge of a bunch of nine-year-old girls at different skilllevels and you just don’t know what you’re going to get.
My wife has been like, “Well, you’re not here to teachthem how to win; you’re here to let them have fun, ex-ercise, develop some skills.” But I’m like, “I know it’shouse league, but, well, I just hate losing. At anything.Period. How can I just turn off my competitive nature?Let’s bend it like Beckham!”
Somehow, I have tried to repress that competitiveside.
I do my best to be fairwith all the girls. I divvy upplaying time and allowthem to try different posi-tions and develop at theirown pace. If a more skilledforward scores a goal, I will(while biting my tongue)sometimes move themback to midfield or defenceor sub them out just toprove it’s not all about win-ning.
I have also learned tonavigate other coaching du-ties: What parents bringsnacks each week, hugestorms that blow in out ofnowhere where you haveto yell at the teenage refer-ee “Stop the game early!Pull the kids off the field!”and the delicate balance of
coaching your daughter and not playing favouritism.The ultimate goal about coaching at this level, I’m
learning, is to empower these girls. To encourage and in-stil confidence in them at this vital life stage while alsojust letting them have fun. If we happen to win thegame, too, that’s gravy. (That said, if we’re up 2-1 withminutes to go, I might put my best defenders backthere, but shhhhh.)
My daughter loves that daddy is the coach. And daddypretty much loves doing it, though there are momentsafter a long work day where he would rather just kickback than gather all the soccer balls and game sheetsand water bottles and drive to a soccer field to coach ona sweltering summer evening.
The long and the short is this: To the thousands ofdads and moms across Canada who volunteer their timeeach week coaching teams — I’m starting to get it now.You guys are awesome. See you at indoor soccer.

Watson waves byeto Harry Potter era
From the age of nine,British actress Emma Wat-son has lived and breathedHarry Potter — havingstarred in all eight of thefilms as Potter’s closefriend, the bookish Mug-gle-born HermioneGranger. While Watsongave a tearful speech atthe final film’s premiere inLondon last week, as HarryPotter and the DeathlyHallows: Part Two gets re-leased, the actress is alsoeagerly awaiting her post-Potter life — even if sheand Hermione have basi-cally already become thesame person.
What was your last scene asHermione?The last shot we did wasthis strange momentwhere we dive into thefireplace in the Ministry ofMagic. It was actually forpart one, not part two andso Dan, Rupert and I oneby one jumped onto theseblue safety mats. It seemedlike a strange scene to goout on but actually (direc-tor David Yates) made thepoint that we were leapinginto the unknown.
It was kind of a perfectmetaphor for what wewere all about to go into. Ican’t tell you how I feltwhen we were shooting it. Were there any last moments
from shooting that stick outin your mind?This film was obviously in-credibly challenging forme.
It really pushed me asan actress but at the sametime, I was able to use a lotof my own genuine emo-tion that I felt about lossand it all coming to anend. So yeah, not muchacting required, really. Itwas all there for me. What’s next for you?It’s obviously scary —change is always scary, butI feel like I’m entering anew chapter, like I get afresh start, and there’ssomething really excitingabout that. I have justmade a film called ThePerks of Being a Wall-flower which was just anincredible experience. So are you going back toBrown?I’m going to Oxford in thefall to study English for ayear. I haven’t left Brown.I’m still enrolled at Brownbut I’m doing my thirdyear abroad, studying athome, abroad for me. I’llgo back to the States formy last year. I took a se-mester off but my A-levelcredits actually count asan advance placement.

Foggy Alcatraz by nightWhen night fell on TheRock in San Francisco Bay,visitors moved shadow-likethrough the formerprison’s lantern-lit hospitalrooms, against dingy wallswith peeling blue paint.
A hard wind whooshedand rattled a window in the
hospital cell where RobertStroud, The Birdman of Al-catraz, spent 11 of his 17years at the dankest, hard-est federal prison in the U.S.
Yet most of the morethan one million touristswho visit annually neverexperience Alcatraz Islandat night or see its spooky,decrepit hospital.
At dusk the island prisonthat housed some of the na-tion’s most notorious crimi-nals — including Al Caponeand the recently rearrestedJames (Whitey) Bulger, whowas on The Rock for bankrobbery from 1959 to 1963— is often enshrouded byfog.
The difference from the
daytime tour is apparent.The ferry from San Francis-co motors slowly aroundthe isle, passing decrepitbuildings. “This is a littleeerie,” said Gerard Lang, 28,who was visiting from Cov-ington, Ky. “You kind of feellike you’re heading toprison yourself.”
Once inside the prison,
the audio tour features sto-ries from ex-inmates andformer prison guards intheir own voices. You cansense the isolation.
On the ride back toshore, San Francisco’s sky-line glowed through thefog. Many remarked on theunique evening spent on Al-catraz. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Staying in Manhattan is ex-pensive. But, there arebudget options that arecool enough to be chic andunder $200 US a night.
The newest addition isYotel (yotel.com). When youarrive on Tenth Avenue,you’re greeted by a check-inkiosk and robotic arm thatstores your luggage in avault. There are no humanhelpers. From there you goto Mission Control whereyou do find staff, beforeheading up to a 110 sq. ft.cabin on any of the floors.
Reminiscent of a 1980’ssci-fi movie and inspired bycapsule hotels in Japan, theYotel is not very spacious.But what the cabin lacks inspace, it makes up for instyle and usability. The bedtransforms into a couch,the floor-to-ceiling windowsblock out the street noiseand the WiFi is free. Withthe posh surroundings, in-cluding a stunning terracelounge, you’ll forget that
you’re paying one of thelowest rates in the city.
There are several otherbargain spots within walk-ing distance of the city'shighlights. The Pod hotel(thepodhotel.com) has apop-art vibe but more basicaccommodations thanYotel. A rooftop deck andIkea-styling come at a lessthan eye-watering price ofaround $130 US a night.
For a more bohemiansensibility, The GershwinHotel (gershwinhotel.com)has the coolest entrance ofany hotel in the city thanksto its Gaudi-inspired archi-tecture. Rooms range fromdormitory bunks starting at$49 US a night to suites.
The Chelsea neighbour-hood in Manhattan has sev-eral brownstones that havebeen converted into hotelsthat are worth considering.The most stylish is the Colo-nial House Inn (colonial-houseinn.com).
Finally, there’s the JaneHotel with its shabby-chicrooms that are designed toresemble cabins on a train(thejanenyc.com).

An intern’s insight
During my three year Pub-lic Relations AdvancedDiploma program at Hum-ber College, we were re-quired to complete a15-week internship in orderto graduate.
The process of finding aninternship while in schoolwas made easier as we hadan online portal where em-ployers could post opportu-nities that we could applyfor.
I managed to get an in-ternship at a start-up com-pany and received anhonorarium of $100 amonth.
However, as the compa-ny was small, they didn’thave the funding for me tostay on as a full-time em-ployee. While I was still in-terning, my supervisor was
amazing at reaching out toher contacts to help mefind a job.
I also utilized many on-line tools for my job search,including Twitter, jobsearch engines and email. Iemailed as many public re-
lations agencies as I could,briefly explaining my expe-rience and how I could fitin with their company.
During this process, Ilearned how important it isto customize your cover let-ter and objective to the spe-cific place you are applying.It’s also crucial to doubleand triple check for correctnames and spelling.
In the end I saw a post-ing for a social media in-ternship for an onlineglobal publication. I sent anemail to the social mediamanager, which included abrief introduction of my-self, my cover letter and myresumé.
I then spoke with her onthe phone, and was offeredan interview at the Torontooffice. Thankfully, I’m apeople person and I don’tget shy when it comes totalking about career relatedtopics. After leaving the in-terview feeling confident, Iwas later offered the in-ternship.
I think it’s important todo at least one or two in-ternships before searchingfor entry-level careers. In-ternships give you a chanceto develop your skills andget a better understandingof the work environmentsthat you enjoy (or don’t en-joy!).
Another plus of intern-ships is, depending on theimpression you leave and
the size of the company,you may be offered a job af-ter your placement.
I think the greatest pieceof advice I could give to stu-dents looking to land theirown internships, would beto network and volunteeras much as you can while inschool.
It’s so important to builda network of contacts andconnections. If you’re will-ing to take time out of yourbusy schedule to do volun-teer work, the people youare volunteering for may beinclined to provide a valu-able reference for youdown the road.
A great way to networkis to attend events and real-ly put yourself out there.Take along some personalbusiness cards that includeyour Twitter handle or yourLinkedIn URL (if you’re ac-tive on those sites).
If you’ve worked anawesome summer job andit ended on good terms,keep in touch with yourpast employer. You neverknow what opportunitiesmay arise in the future,particularly if you were areliable and hard workingemployee.
My main recommenda-tion to employers wouldbe to take on interns andto give them a decentamount of work and re-sponsibility.
We understand that

Emily Moorhouse recommends employers who take
on interns always remember to give them a decent
amount of work and responsibility.
What I learned
Key take-aways from
Emily’s experience:
Build a network ofcontacts by attendingevents and meeting newpeople. Bring alongpersonal business cards toshow others that you’reprepared and seriousabout the job hunt.
Internships are a great wayto develop new skills andtest different workenvironments. With one ortwo internships underyour belt, you’ll be moreready for the work worldwhen you start searchingfor entry-level positions.
Where Emily is now
Since I just graduated in June, I’m currently do-ing a full-time, paid internship. I felt this wasthe best way to go as it would allow me to makea bit of money, while also gaining more experi-ence in my field. I also plan to further my educa-tion sometime in the near future.
there will often be timeswhen we are needed forsimple office duties (filing,scanning, etc.). However,being that we are fresh outof school, we also have aton of new skills and ideasthat we’re dying to put touse.
Create new projects and
tasks that could incorpo-rate our skills and give usthe opportunity to showyou what we’re capable of.

Keep those pages turning Encouraging youngsters to read books during the summer will keep them sharp
Summertime is so beauti-ful — filled with outdoorsports, full pink roses,warm afternoons and coolevenings.
Just thinking about thesummer months makesmany school-aged chil-dren happy.
You may rememberhaving at least a few lazydays of summer duringwhich you actually hadthe time to grab a book,relax, and read outside fora while.
The Johns HopkinsUniversity Center forSummer Learning saysthat “research demon-strates that all studentsexperience significantlearning losses in proce-dural and factual knowl-edge during the summermonths”.
However, reading fouror five books can actuallyenhance reading ability inan elementary schoolchild, and instead of fin-ishing the summer with alearning deficit, yourchild can finish the sum-mer with gains, and go in-to the new school yearwith better reading andwriting skills.
How can you help yourchild this summer andprevent a learning loss?First, think about yourown likes and dislikes.
If someone told you toread Crime and Punish-ment by Dostoevsky overthe summer, unless youare an aficionado of Russ-ian novels, you may justput it off.
Your child is no differ-ent.
If you like to readlighter books in the sum-mer, your child may justhave the same feeling.That’s perfectly OK.
Children should readwhat they like to readover the summer, because
it is more likely that theywill read more after hav-ing discovered the joy ofreading.
Allow your child to ex-perience the wonder ofreading a fantasy or sci-ence fiction story, or thethrill of feeling as if he orshe is at a revolutionarywar battle — or on a pi-rate ship.
Some children may likenon fiction, even duringthe summer, and maywant to read about theuniverse, science, or evenabout travels or foods inforeign lands.
Like you, they justmight turn into an adultwith fond memories ofreading outside duringthe summer.
With young preschool-ers, make time during the
summer for readingaloud. It’s important tobegin reading aloud toyour child as soon as pos-sible, because this helpsto develop a sense for therhythm and pattern oflanguage.
Kumon Math and Read-ing Centres offer thesetips for reading withpreschoolers:
• Read as often as you andyour child can, and pre-pare for reading aloud bypreviewing the books youintend to read together.
• The art of listening is ac-quired, and so it must betaught and cultivatedgradually — if you haveever had your child runaway during the middle ofa page, you already know
about this. Read slowly enough for
your child to build mentalpictures of what he or she

ISTOCK
About toleave on amuch-neededvacation, Ler-ae Bigelowthought shehad madeplans for justabout every-
thing. But when her bossdemanded that she cancelher trip at the lastminute, she realizedthere was one contin-gency she had overlooked— her own dismissal.
As a supervisor for the
Alberta-based oilfieldsservice company T.C. Mo-bile Vessels Ltd., Bigelowthought she had compliedwith the usual vacationprotocol: She notified herboss that she was attend-ing a family reunion atthe end of August andspoke to him again oneweek before her trip toensure everything was inorder.
However, on the day ofher departure, her bosscalled from out of towndemanding that shechange her plans andwork that night. Bigelowexplained that she hadscheduled a vacation andit was too late to resched-ule. Thinking he was en-titled to issue thedirective and that Bigelowwould have to obey, her
boss got upset when sherefused to take the shift.He later called her de-manding that she returnher equipment to thecompany.
When she returnedfrom vacation, Bigelow re-ceived a text messagefrom her boss confirmingthat she had been dis-missed.
Although he later testi-fied that he would haveconsidered rehiringBigelow had she returnedhis calls, Bigelow was notinterested in returning.
Since Bigelow was notpaid any severance, shesued T.C. Mobile. Recent-ly she won her case. Indeclining to change hervacation plans, Bigelowhad disobeyed a direct or-der from the boss. How-
ever, it was an order thatwas unreasonable, and itwas the first time Bigelowhad done so, the courtruled.
The court noted that“although an employer isentitled to request that anemployee re-book vaca-tion to accommodate itsrequirements, the em-ployer must be reason-able.” Here, the requestwas made at the lastminute and after Bigelowhad already obtained ap-proval.
Vacations are impor-tant benefits and, onceapproved, should be notinterfered with, unlessthere is a very good rea-son. DANIEL LUBLIN IS AN EMPLOY-MENT LAWYER WITH WHITTEN &LUBLIN LLP.

• Vary the subject matterand length of the booksyou read. Reading aboveyour child’s reading levelon occasion can motivatea child’s love of learningand helps to build vocabu-lary.
• If chapters are too longfor one reading session,find a stopping point thatgenerates a little sus-pense.
• Some children may findit difficult to sit and listen.Paper, crayons, and pen-cils allow them to keeptheir hands busy while lis-tening.
• Talk about what you arereading. Foster yourchild's curiosity and an-swer questions to makethe entire process moreenjoyable. Questions are agreat way to check com-prehension. And don't beafraid to add your ownpersonality to the story.It's okay to make fun ofpictures, or talk aboutwords that sound silly.
Reading aloud will in-crease your child's motiva-tion to read, and will helpyour child to build pre–reading skills necessaryfor later years. Summerreading can be fun, but itcan also be one of the bestinvestments you make inthe future of your child.NEWS CANADA

The Vancouver Whitecapsannounced the signing ofMustapha Jarju yesterdaywith hopes the striker canturn around the club’s in-augural season and blos-som into a star.
The 24-year-old, who isthe first-ever African MajorLeague Soccer designatedplayer, netted 25 goals andhad 13 assists between hisBelgian second-divisionsquad and the Gambiannational team.
Head coach and directorof soccer operations TomSoehn hopes Jarju, who ar-rives with a four-year con-tract, will combine tomake a fearsome strike
partnership with theclub’s other DP, Eric Has-sli.
“The thing that obvious-ly drew us to him was hisnose for goal and his abili-ty also to set up goals,” saidSoehn. “Whenever youhave two different guysthat are a threat ... it takesattention away from oneof them.”
Team president BobLenarduzzi also empha-sized the need to bolsterthe Whitecaps scoringability.
“For someone like EricHassli, who has for themost part been the lonegunman up front ... it willbe nice,” Lenarduzzi said.“We were looking for aplayer like Mustapha whohas the quality we think
that creates a pretty goodtandem up front.”
Lenarduzzi teased aline-up that would includeHassli and Jarju up frontwith Camilo on their wingand playmaker Davide Chi-umiento lurking in centralmidfield.
The Whitecaps havescored just 19 goals, thirdworst in the league.
Twelve of those goalshave come from Hassli andCamilo and just five otherplayers have managed toscore a goal this season.
Jarju said he wants tomake an instant impact ona team desperate to win.
“I’m hopeful I can startSaturday and start scor-ing,” he said. “I’m OK com-ing here. I don’t think it’sgoing to be a problem for
me to be in the system. Ihope if everyone is back(from injury) we’re goingto start winning.”
Soehn will assess Jarju’sfitness in training thisweek before deciding onwhether to give him play-ing time Saturday.
According to MLS rules,Jarju’s salary-cap hit willbe just $335,000, despitethe fact he will make moremoney. The cap hit will bepro-rated this season.
Vancouver sits at thebottom of the league witha record of 2-10-8 and havea tough stretch ahead.
They host one of theleague’s top teams, RealSalt Lake, Saturday beforea high-profile friendly withManchester City on Mon-day.
Fielderpaces NL toall-star winPitching, speed and a littlebit of power. The NationalLeague is back on top inthe all-star game, using thesame formula that workedduring its dominating runin the 1970s and ’80s.
Prince Fielder hit athree-run homer and RoyHalladay and his reliefcombined on a six-hitter tolead the NL over the Amer-ican League 5-1 last night,giving the senior circuit itsfirst two-game winningstreak since the mid-1990s.
The victory handed theNL home-field advantagein the World Series. Withseveral big names as no-shows at Chase Field inPhoenix, the AL lost morethan the game.
Boston right-handerJosh Beckett warmed up,then bowed out with a soreknee. Detroit sluggerMiguel Cabrera left afterhurting his side.
Even before they werehurt, many stars weremissing. Justin Verlander,Felix Hernandez and manyother aces started Sundayand were ineligible. Chip-per Jones and Alex Ro-driguez were among thoseon the disabled list andDerek Jeter wanted abreak. In all, 16 of 84 all-stars were dropped.
Fielder won the MVPaward after becoming thefirst Brewers player tohomer in an all-star game.The World Series edgecould help him later, withMilwaukee and St. Louistied for the Central Divi-sion lead at the break.
The NL dashed aroundthe bases and stole threebags, all in one inning.
In all, the Nationalshave enjoyed their bestrun since taking three in arow from 1994-96 — theyhad lost 12 straight gamesplayed to a decision beforea 3-1 victory at Anaheimlast year.THE ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Rory McIlroy slipped intohis seat without great fan-fare yesterday, his pres-ence detected by a suddenburst of camera shutterswhen the photographersrealized the star of thisBritish Open had arrived.
It was his first time at anews conference sincethat Sunday evening atCongressional, and it alllooked familiar exceptthat the 22-year-old fromNorthern Ireland nolonger had the shiny U.S.Open trophy at his side.
In its place were expec-tations of many more ma-jors to follow, perhapsstarting with this one.
McIlroy has a chance tojoin the elite group ofplayers that have cap-tured the U.S. Open andBritish Open in the sameyear.
McIlroy knew it was
quite an achievement, set-ting scoring records at theU.S. Open and winning byeight shots.
“I didn’t realize howmuch of a fuss it wouldcreate or how much of abuzz,” he said. “It’s beennice. I thought it wasgreat for me to win theU.S. Open, win my firstmajor. The support thatI’ve had from people backhome, from everyone allover the world, has beenpretty overwhelming.”
It was impossible to
miss yesterday. This is the new world
of McIlroy. And he says heis ready for it.
“This is what I’ve al-ways wanted to do,” McIl-roy said. “I’ve alwayswanted to be a successfulgolfer and be one of thebest players in the worldand to win major champi-onships. If I have to putup with a few thingsalong the way, then I’mfine with that.”
McIlroy became theyoungest major championsince Tiger Woods wonhis first major at AugustaNational in 1997 when hewas 21. The last four ma-jor champions are all intheir 20s, the first timethat has happened inmore than a century.

“Each team determinesits own ballpark-safety fea-tures based on local laws.

20-second drop topThe Camaro’s well-insulated power-oper-ated cloth top is secured by a single cen-tre-mounted latch and takes just 20seconds for the windows to automaticallylower and the top to fully retract.
Chevy can also supply a windscreenthat’s secured between the seats to helpkeep most baby-boomer comb-overs inplace.
For all its size, the Camaro convertible doesn’t hold much in the way of people
or cargo. But that’s not really the point of this style statement, now is it.
Cruising season is finally here; need a reminder?
Smooth rideThe firm-riding Camaro features 20-inchwheels that, when tested, clung tenaciously tothe twisty tarmac. The optional leather-coveredbucket seats provided equal grip and werepleasantly comfortable for long-distancedriving.
You’ll also be hard-pressed to see or feel anybizarre shaking or body flex that’s problematicon some other convertible designs.
Mighty SSThe Camaro convertible SS model comeswith a 426-horsepower 6.2-litre V8 and asix-speed manual transmission.
There’s also a 312-horsepower 3.6-litreV6 unit that comes with the optional six-speed automatic. Still, its extra-cost blackcentre stripe and 20-inch polishedaluminum wheels made it appear almostindistinguishable from the mighty SS.
BASE PRICE:
$35,500
High-school reunions aregreat for reminiscing aboutthe way we were. And theperfect four-wheeled timemachine for such an eventis the 2011 Camaro convert-ible.
The year I departed myalma mater in 1967 was theCamaro’s freshman season.By then, Ford’s ground-breaking Mustang had beenaround for two and a halfyears and had generatedworldwide sales in excess of1.3 million copies.
Even so, the Chevy rivalattracted plenty of atten-
tion with its head-turninggood looks and enoughavailable grunt to lay downlengthy rubber strips when-ever the driver tapped thegas pedal.
To my teenage way ofthinking, the original Ca-maro’s sophistication andswagger (especially the Ral-ly Sport convertible model
with its hidden headlights)blew the Mustang into theweeds and would have beenmy personal preference ifonly I had possessed the fi-nancial wherewithal.
Chevrolet mothballedthe Camaro on its 35th an-niversary in 2002, but withgreat fanfare the stunningcoupe returned for the
2010 model year. The convertible was re-
leased this past February,just in time for the springand summer cruising sea-son.
Whether it’s around theblock or across the country,the Camaro should definite-ly transport you to anotherstate of mind.

An upscale driving experienceVolkswagen Tiguan loved
for refinement, sportiness
The VW Tiguan is a com-pact SUV that was launchedin 2009 to Canadian shop-pers. Still on sale, the modelreceives an update for the2011 model year.
With standard turbopower, two or all-wheeldrive and sporty driving dy-namics, the VolkswagenTiguan stood out in themarketplace as a sporty andexciting contender.
Standard equipment in-cluded a two-litre four-cylin-der turbo engine with 200horsepower, front-wheeldrive and a five-speed man-
ual transmission. A six-speed automatic was avail-able, and standard on4Motion all wheel drivemodels.
Feature content includedheated leather seating, asunroof, navigation, rain-sensing wipers, a backupcamera, Bluetooth and au-tomatic climate control.
What Owners Like
Tiguan owners typicallyrave about sporty ride andhandling characteristics,impeccable fit and finish,classy styling, and a long list
of bells and whistles. Small car driving man-
ners and manoeuvrabilityare also highly rated.
What Owners Dislike
Complaints of the Tiguantend to be centred aroundminor interior rattles as thevehicle ages, as well as itsrequirement to run on pre-mium gas.
Some owners wish for
better gas mileage, andmany complain of limitedcargo space in the back.
Common Issues
Start a test-drive of theTiguan with a full check ofall interior electronics — in-cluding the power/heatedseats, navigation systemand all lights.
A few owners have re-ported having transmis-
sions replaced under war-ranty, and others note astrange and intermittent“thump” as the vehiclecomes to a stop in traffic.
Information on Tiguantransmission issues isscarce, but if the automaticgearbox in the unit you’reconsidering exhibits anyunwelcomed behaviour, besure to have it checked out.
Note that any sputtering
or “lumpiness” in accelera-tion could be caused by abad engine sensor or igni-tion coil packs, and thatany check engine lightsshould be investigated by atrained VW mechanic.
Finally, check the floorcarpeting, especiallyaround the front footwellsfor signs of moisture,which could indicate aclogged or pinched-off sun-roof drainage tube.
The Verdict
Tiguan will command aprice premium for its pur-chase and operating costs,though most owners agreethat the upscale driving ex-perience and sporty per-formance more thancompensate.
