Volkow tellsemail writerto ‘Piss off’

As an animal rights activist, Dania Sheldonwas glad to hear her hometown was consid-ering banning the sale and distribution ofshark fins.

But when she sent an e-petition to Burnabycity councillors, encouraging them to workwith Vancouver and Richmond on such aban, she received an odd reply from Coun.Nick Volkow.

“Piss off,” it said, stating it was sent fromVolkow’s Blackberry.

Sheldon replied, asking if that wasVolkow’s official position on the issue, butdidn’t receive a response, she said.

“I don’t want to be making a tempest ina teacup kind of thing,” she said in a phoneinterview with the NOW. Sheldon lives onGabriola Island but grew up in Burnaby.

Sheldon reviewed her email afterwards asshe was confused by the response, she said.

“It was a rather polite email, I thought,and I’ve read it about 12 times since then tomake sure,” she added.

The response shocked her, Sheldon said.“It’s so inappropriate,” she said. “I’m not

personally offended, it’s just – wow, you’renot supposed to do that as a politician.”

As a member of an animal-rights group,Sheldon often writes to politicians, she said.

“If you’re not interested, just don’t reply,”she added. “I’m used to that kind of thing;you don’t expect every politician to respondto everything you send to them.”

Volkow confirmed he’d sent the emailwhen contacted by the NOW. He said he wasfrustrated after being inundated with e-peti-tions about instituting a shark-finning ban.

“After about the 350th, I responded toabout four of them, ‘piss off,’” he said,“because I finally couldn’t take it anymore. Ishould have sent a lengthy response.”

He did respond in full to one email, headded.

SHARK FIN CAMPAIGN

Fed up: A dozen people rallied outside a Burnaby welfare office Wednesday, demanding that the government raiseassistance rates for people with disabilities. The current rates mean people on disability live on roughly $11,000 a year.

Welfare activist: ‘We’re angry’

Roughly a dozen people, mostly withdisabilities, gathered outside a Burnabywelfare office Wednesday, demandingthe government increase their monthlybenefit payments.

“We’re fed up being treated like abunch of beggars. We’re angry, and we’renot going to be silent any longer,” saidNew Westminster resident Tom Page,spokesperson for ACORN, a social justice

organization. ACORN’s disability rightsgroup was holding the demonstrationon Wednesday morning on the cornerof Kingsway and McKay Avenue nearMetrotown.

According to Page, people receivingdisability benefits from the governmentlive in “abject extreme poverty” receiv-ing only $906 a month (which translatesto $10,872 annually), while Albertansreceive $1,588.

“B.C. has one of the highest costs ofliving in Canada, but the disability rateshave fallen to sixth place,” Page told thecrowd through a megaphone.

Page also bemoaned the difficultiesand wait-times to get on disability and

the fact that benefits are not retroactive tothe date of application.

ACORN wants the disability ratesraised to $1,200 immediately, followedby a study to come up with a livable ratethat’s indexed for inflation. According toPage, who’s on disability, the governmenthasn’t increased the rates since 2007.

“They have money to increase theirown salaries,” he said.

The group plans to target one wel-fare office a month, in an attempt to putpressure on government to meet theirdemands.

Cristina Pastia will very likely neverknow happened to her motherand father on Sept. 12, 2009.

Pastia, then 20 years old, was living inBurnaby, studying criminology at SFU,and expecting her parents to return froma three-week trip from their home coun-try of Romania.

“The day they were supposed to comeback, I found out they are not,” says

Pastia, a tiny, thinwoman with widebrown eyes.

Friends of thefamily informedher there had beenan accident, butlater that day,Pastia’s uncle toldher what the alle-

gations were: that her father had killedher mother and then himself. Pastia fellutterly apart.

“That was the first time I completelylost it. I’ve never done it since.”

From the beginning, Pastia was per-plexed. Her parents’ marriage seemedhappy, and there was no history of abuseor violence. There was a note, alleg-edly left by her father, but the signaturedidn’t match the one Pastia had seen himregularly use. Romanian police eventu-ally closed the case, but Pastia was leftbewildered.

“There are a lot of things that don’tmake sense,” she says. “I don’t knowthat he did it. I don’t know that he didn’tdo it. I don’t want to believe that he didit.”

Pastia wasleft to deal withthe aftermathwith supportfrom friendsbut her familywas far awayin Romania.She fought withRomanian policeto have herstatement takenand grappledwith bureaucra-cy for the docu-ments neededto make funeral

arrangements and ensure the wills werecarried out.

For roughly six months, Pastia wasin shock. She buried herself in school,pumping out papers and earning goodgrades. She was accepted to the fall 2010honours program, but sheer exhaustioncaught up with her. She would startcrying a lot and became frustrated oversmall issues. Pastia decided to take ayear off school.

Pastia searched online for informationabout the grieving process but was frus-trated with the sappy tones, pastels andfloral motifs that glossed over the worst.

“When I really experienced all theugly parts, I felt something was wrongwith me. I needed the acknowledgmentthat it’s horrible,” she says.Also, about four months after her par-ents died, Pastia started volunteeringwith Women Against Violence AgainstWomen, in the office and on the crisisline, helping women escape violence.

Counselling others gave Pastia hopethat she would get through her loss.

“I’d spend my time talking to peopleon the phone. They’d been through thesehorrible situations,” she says. “It made

me think I could learn to live with it.”Pastia spent two-and-a-half years

with WAVAW and is now volunteer-ing with B.C. Victims of Homicide, asmall organization that helps peoplewho’ve lost loved ones to murder. Pastiaworks mostly in the office, making listsof resources, compiling information ondeath benefits. She also finished herhonours thesis and has already startedthe master’s program in SFU’s school ofcriminology. She was originally consid-ering law school but has since shifted herfocus to helping victims of violent crime.

“It’s the one thing that really seems tofit for me and my life,” she says.

On Tuesday, Sept. 18, Pastia receivedthe Terry Fox Gold Medal at SFU,

reserved for one student each year whodemonstrated courage in the face ofadversity.“That’s really intimidating, honestly,”she says. “It’s unbelievably flattering andalso a little scary. It feels like a lot to liveup to.”

The ceremony was held just before theTerry Fox Run.

Pastia still struggles with day-to-dayactivities, and the sudden loss of her par-ents will always be a part of who she is.

“It doesn’t go away. It’s really hard to,I don’t know, do anything. I don’t knowhow to explain it. Everything remindsme of it.”

A 30-year-old Vancouver man was arrested Tuesdaynight by Transit Police officers and now faces chargesrelated to a sexual assault against a 12-year-old girl lastmonth.

Jean Pierre Muyindu, 30, made his first court appear-ance on Wednesday and was released on a recognizancewith conditions. His next court appearance is scheduledfor Oct. 3.

The incident occurred on Aug. 31 at 3:45 p.m. whenthe girl boarded a Simon Fraser University express buson Hastings Street, near the Pacific National Exhibitionand soon noticed a man edging toward her.

The man followed her as she exited the bus atHastings Street and Willingdon Avenue and even sprint-ed through traffic and across the street to board anotherbus with her to Metrotown.

As she waited near the front of the 130 Metrotownbus to get off at the Brentwood SkyTrain Station, thesuspect allegedly pinned her from behind and grabbedher buttocks.

She got off the bus and ran to the SkyTrain stationwhere she asked a woman for help and ended up takinga train to Lougheed Station where the two reported theincident to an attendant.

After media coverage of the incident, which includedthe release of video and photos of the male suspect,police investigators were contacted by two additionalpotential victims. Police are currently investigatingthose incidents to see if they are connected to the Aug.31 incident.

You were a tremendously gift-ed triathlete, but more importantly,a kind, passionate human being. Ienjoyed our Half-Iron training andthe weekend rides thereafter. I wasin awe at your strength.”

According to Levine’s obituary,

which ran last weekend in a dailynewspaper, Levine was born inBrandon, MB on May 25, 1982 andattended Simon Fraser University,where she earned her BSc in eco-nomics and statistics and a bachelorof business administration. Levineworked for the Ministry of Healthand the Fraser Health Authority asa financial analyst and later earnedher CGA designation.

having married Lee Goudzwaardon Sept. 23, 2011.

The couple was within weeks ofcelebrating their first anniversarywhen the accident occurred.

Levine also leaves behind her par-ents Penny Rossman and NormanLevine (Arlene); sister Robyn; nieceSavanna and nephew Riley; andmany family and friends.

Funeral services for Levine wereheld on Sept. 11.

Seniors aren’t problems tobe managed and agingis not an illness. But too

often, we talk about older BritishColumbians that way, in termsboth inaccurate and demeaning.

There are certainly challengesin growing older. Butnothing happensat 65 that suddenlymakes someone lessof a person.

Seniors contribute a greatdeal. Like everyone else, theywork, volunteer, support familymembers, nurture friendships,pursue hobbies and interests,and participate in communitylife. In B.C., more than 10,000children are being raised by theirgrandparents with not a lot ofsupport – a great challenge andcontribution.

Yes, many British Columbiansrequire society’s support as theyage. But so do people of all ages– families needing daycare, uni-versity students needing bursar-ies, commuters needing goodroads and everyone needinghealth care.

Yet, somehow, support forseniors tends to be viewed as aspecial burden.

Admittedly, demograph-ics create some challenges. In2001, there were 135,000 BritishColumbians over 80.

By 2011, there were 197,000, a46 per cent increase in 10 years.

Similar increases lie ahead;by 2036, one in four of us will beover 65.

While we talk about support-ing people as they age, we aren’tdelivering.

The B.C. Ombudspersonreported last year that thenumber of publicly subsidizedresidential care beds increased

by 3.4 per cent between2002 and 2010.Meanwhile, the popula-tion over 80 – the main

client base – increased by 34 percent. (Home support servicesalso failed to keep up with thegrowth in the over-80 popula-tion.)

Those of us in the communitysocial services sector know it isa mistake to think seniors’ needsrevolve around health care, as ifaging is an illness.

Families do great work help-ing their elders.

But not everyone has familymembers nearby, and often, pro-fessional skills are required.

That’s when the agencies thatemploy thousands of expert,dedicated people in the com-munity social services sectortake over. They support seniorsin their homes.

They help with shopping andmeals.

They provide physiotherapy,and counselling on everythingfrom medications and health toemotional issues.

Our work produces pragmat-ic benefits. For example, while itcosts $72,000 a year to provide

E. coli contamination should raise red flagsAre cuts to the federal food inspec-

tion services impacting food safety inCanada?

Was the recent recall of meat with E.coli due to changes in inspection process-es and/or staffing?

Who knows?What we do know is that

the E. coli tainted Canadianmeat products were discoveredby U.S. inspectors, not Canadian inspec-tors. And the U.S. food safety inspec-tion service tested the beef two weeksbefore Canadian agencies even acted.

This should, we believe, raise several redflags.

When the federal government decidedto build a very lean budget, StephenHarper also decided to leave out all those

pesky details about exactlywhat was being cut and by howmuch. The budget, accordingto media reports, called for theelimination of 19,000 federal

jobs over three years. Also, accordingto media reports, the cuts would affecteverything from food inspections totransportation safety. But the federal gov-

ernment has not released details aboutthose cuts. So, we, like many other folksin B.C., have no idea whether cuts maybe directly impacting the safety of ourfood supply or our water supply.

However, the union representing thelargest number of federal employees doeshave an idea.

The Public Service Alliance of Canadabelieves that Canada’s food inspectionagency is being weakened through cutsand a move to have meat companies domore self-policing. And it is raising con-cerns about the trend. As it should.

Certainly, PSAC has a vested interest,given that its members are losing jobs,but it doesn’t take a PhD in agriculture tocome to the conclusion that fewer inspec-tions and regulations with more foodproduction could add up to more taintedfood issues.

So far, no one has died from this E.coli meat, but what about the next batch?Fewer inspections will surely meana potential for more chances of con-tamination. Will it take something like aWalkerton tragedy to get the governmentto rethink its cuts?

Real support isneeded for seniors

Give scrutiny to oil claimsDear Editor:

Re: Residents organize townhall meeting onpipeline, Burnaby NOW, Sept. 19.

Kinder Morgan’s response to a planned townhall meeting is to claim that the company has a goodsafety record for shipping “diluted bitumen” (tarsands diluted with a cocktail of toxic hydrocarbons)and that diluted bitumen is no more “corrosive”than other types of crude oil.

Both of Kinder Morgan’s claims deserve closescrutiny.

First, Kinder Morgan “has declined to providedetails on spill incidents in the past decade, butNational Energy Board data show there have been

nine leaks on the pipeline since 2002, which spilleda total of nearly 4,800 barrels of oil.” The majorincidents were at the Sumas tank farm in 2005 andat the Burnaby terminal in 2009.

Evacuations took place in Burnaby in areas nearGovernment Road in 2009 and Forest Grove in2010.

Second, diluted bitumen is derived from tarsands which is relatively solid at room temperature.This solid matter must be super heated, mixed witha toxic cocktail of hydrocarbons and placed underintense pressure in order to transport it by pipeline.While it is true that some industry groups main-tain that diluted bitumen is not any more “corro-sive” than conventional crude, many science-based

residential care (sharedbetween seniors and gov-ernment), a few hours aweek of home supportcan help people stayindependent at a fractionof that expense.

Community supportis the best way to reducedemands on the healthcare system.

But really, this is aboutdoing what’s right. Seniorsshould be supported intheir desire to live full, richlives, and contribute.

Our commitment alsohas to extend to the pro-fessional, dedicated peoplewho provide the support.The number of seniors hasbeen increasing, but gov-ernment support has notkept up.

Frontline workers havebeen increasingly stressedand stretched, and sen-iors have suffered fromreduced care. It’s goodthat we recognize ourelders through NationalSeniors Day, Oct. 1.

But seniors don’t really

need a day or a pressrelease. They need a cit-izenry and a governmentthat treat them as valuedpeople, not problems.

When that happens,every day will be seniors’day. And we will be astronger society.

Seniors: Support is needed

studies, have shown that diluted bitumenis more abrasive and thus more likely tocause increased risk of damage to pipesand related infrastructure.

In fact, refiners have found that tarsands-derived crude contains significantlyhigher quantities of abrasive quartz sandparticles than conventional crude. Thesestudies maintain that the combination ofchemical corrosion and physical abrasioncan dramatically increase the rate of pipe-line deterioration.

This is not to mention the problem oftrying to clean-up diluted bitumen when,not if, spills occur.

The main problem is that when the sol-vents used to transport tar sands dissipate,the resulting heavy oil tends to sink.

If spilled bitumen is not located andcleaned up within hours of a spill, theheavy oil sinks in water and/or soil mak-ing it virtually impossible to remove.

This was amply demonstrated in therecent massive spill near Kalamazoo,Michigan.

I urge everyone to learn more and dis-cuss the facts. The planned town hall meet-ing on Oct. 10 at Confederation Park willhelp shed more light on heavy oil.

The complaints – andnumbers – don’t add upDear Editor:

Re: Family upset over treatment offather, Burnaby NOW, Sept. 26.

I am shocked by the treatment to whichMr. Evans has been subject, but I amastounded by the response in the media.

As usual, the path of least resistance isto blame the government and the health-care system.

Is no one prepared to take on anyresponsibility for themselves and their“loved ones?”

I happen to live in Mr. Evans’ neigh-bourhood, and am somewhat aware ofhis circumstances, as well as having beenexposed to a similar case involving myfather-in-law. I can state from experiencethat with just a bit of initiative and rea-sonable expectations, a perfectly accept-able solution is currently available withoutany of the hand wringing and casting ofblame.

I am floored by his daughter’s state-ment that “the family” can’t afford the$4,000 to $5,000 per month that a place in aprivate care facility – available on demand– would cost.

There is no way that Mr. Evans couldnot afford that size of outlay himself with-out “the family” having to put up a dime.

As a retired union executive, his pen-sion, on top of his CPP and OAC (which islikely clawed back because his income maybe above the $70,000 claw-back threshold)is hardly likely to be less than $60,000, andmuch of the care cost is tax-deductible.

On top of that, his house, which ishardly likely to be mortgaged at his age,is worth in the order of $1 million. So thedaughter’s financial concern appears hardto justify.

If Mr. Evans’ income does not coverhis cost of care, it may impact the size ofthe family’s inheritance – hardly a reasonfor the rest of us to subsidize that care,and even less reason that he should be sopoorly treated.

So what Mr. Evans actually needs isnot the government to provide us with anunlimited number of extended-care beds,but someone to take a reasonable interestin his welfare and take charge of his affairs– a function most of us would prefer ourfamilies to undertake.

In my view, Mr. Evans’ problem is per-sonal rather than political.

Thomas Hasek, Burnaby

FROMTHE


Development Ministry, inquiring if thedisability rates were going to rise soon andhow people on disability were expectedto get with the high cost of living inB.C. Social Development Minister MoiraStilwell was in meetings and not availablefor an interview, but sent the NOW an

email in response.“I understand that people living with

a disability face unique, complex chal-lenges. However, when setting assistancerates, governments are obligated to takea balanced approach between what is fairto individuals seeking assistance and whattaxpayers can support,” she wrote. “On

Oct. 1, we are making some changes to ourpolicies that will assist individuals withdisabilities to lead more independent lives.Creating a better life for people with dis-abilities is about finding a balance betweenproviding supports to take care of dailyneeds and finding ways to encourage thegreatest level of independence possible.”

Stilwell said B.C. has a good recordwhen it comes to support for people withdisabilities, and the province is home tosome of the most comprehensive supportsfor people with disabilities in Canada.

“However, we also understand thatthere is always room for improvement,”she said.

“’Look,’ I said. ‘I’m a late adapter to this technology.’And I said, ‘you’re about the 300th one I’ve received, andit’s been going on all day long, it’s been going on aboutfour or five days,’” Volkow said. “And then I said, ‘I amon record, publicly, in support of banning this practice.’I said, ‘I gave an interview to the Sing Tao Daily, sayingexactly the same thing.’ And then I said, ‘you know, youand your group would be far better served if you expendedyour energy on this on the federal government and madea national ban of this thing, as opposed to this piecemealthing we’re all doing right now.’”

Volkow also expressed frustration about Vancouver citycouncil passing a motion to work towards a regional sharkfin ban with Richmond and Burnaby last Tuesday.

“They had spoken to Richmond and Burnaby, and theysaid, ‘we’re going to do a joint press conference and inunison we’re going to ban this practice,’” he said. “TypicalVancouver, grandstanding.”

Volkow, who is at the Union of British ColumbiaMunicipalities conference in Victoria this week, said heattended a session on social media on Tuesday where poli-ticians were told to be careful before sending anything off.

“I should have had the course before I responded tothese emails,” he said.

Volkow said he’d reconsider before responding in sucha way again.

“I would just turn off my Blackberry, as all of thesethings are wading in,” he added. “Literally, it was one

every five seconds, and it went on for hours.”As of Sept. 19, the City of Burnaby and city councillors

began receiving scads of e-petitions on the shark-finningissue.

The e-petition reads:“As a resident of British Columbia, I am writing to you

to encourage you to work with the neighbouring citiesof Vancouver, Burnaby and Richmond to pass a ban onshark fin products in these communities.

With several other Canadian cities already enactingshark fin bans – Vancouver, Richmond and Burnaby

represent the largest remaining market for shark fins inCanada. I am pleased to know you have agreed to worktogether to introduce a ban on the sale, trade and distri-bution of shark fins in all three cities. I hope you will actswiftly and decisively in enacting this ban.

Shark populations are declining at an alarming rate,and your immediate action will play a crucial role inprotecting the health of our oceans and in taking a standagainst the brutal cruelty of shark finning. You have myfull support and encouragement in tackling this globalcrisis.”

“It started this afternoon, and I have 139 of them,”Sharon Fuller, administrative assistant for the office of themayor, said last Wednesday. “There’s another one! We’vegot 140.”

Burnaby Coun. Dan Johnston tweeted that he’d received200 e-petitions in support of a ban, and one against a ban,on Wednesday.

Burnaby council forwarded the issue to staff in June andis waiting for a staff report before making any decisions, hesaid in a phone interview last week.

In June, Mayor Derek Corrigan told a delegation ofanimal-rights activists that it was beyond the city’s scopeto regulate food products, and that it should be done at afederal level.

Since June, councils for Port Moody, Coquitlam, theCity of North Vancouver and Maple Ridge have all passedmotions banning shark fin sales in those cities.

Amanda Zhao’s boyfriend, LiAng, has been sentenced to lifein prison for her 2002 murder in

Burnaby, according to Chinesemedia reports.

The sentence comes 10 yearsafter the B.C. international stu-dent’s body was found stuffedin a suitcase near Stave Lake inMission.

Police had alleged that Zhao,21, was murdered in the Burnabybasement suite she and Li sharedon Oct. 9, 2002.

Her body was found twoweeks later.

Li left the country for Chinathree days after the grisly dis-covery.

China refused to send himback to Canada for trial becauseof a lack of an extradition treatybetween the two countries.

China considers murders ofChinese nationals committed

abroad as domestic crimes.After years of negotiations

with Canadian authorities,China agreed to prosecute Li– without the death penalty – inexchange for the RCMP’s evi-dence against him.

Li’s murder trial began inSeptember, 2011 and only lastedtwo days.

Since then, calls were made

by local B.C. politicians to inves-tigate the delayed verdict.

Li comes from a well-con-nected Chinese military family.

Zhao was studying atCoquitlam College at the time ofher murder and disappearance.

Reports out of China indicateLi will appeal the sentence.

More than 1,300 Insurance Corporationof British Columbia staff members are goingon strike next Wednesday.

The union held a day of action last week,as well, with approximately 1,500 claimsstaff participating in the strike.

Next week’s day of action will be done bya new group of strikers, according to a pressrelease from the Burnaby-based CanadianOffice and Professional Employees Union,Local 378, and will primarily affect LowerMainland locations, including five inBurnaby and two in New Westminster.

“Our bargaining team has met with theemployer, and ICBC said they’re still notwilling to budge on wages. Their propos-als put our members far behind the risingcost of living,” COPE 378 president DavidBlack stated in the release. “It’s ridiculous;ICBC has the money. They’ve increasedpayments to executives and business part-ners and, on top of that, they’re giving $1.2billion to government.”

Staff members from the Burnaby DriverService Centre, Burnaby Collision LearningCentre,BurnabyWarehouseRecordsCentre,and Burnaby Greater Vancouver East andBurnaby Metrotown Expressway centresare participating in the day of action.

Staff from the last two locations will bestriking at other locations, due to logisticalconcerns, the release stated.

In New Westminster, staff from the NewWestminster litigation centre and NewWestminster LM Salvage will also be onstrike.

The union has agreed to maintain essen-tial service levels during the day of action,Mark Jan Vrem, media manager for ICBC,said in a phone interview.

“Some customers may have to wait alittle bit longer, and we do apologize forthat,” he said. “Our centres will be opennext Wednesday.”

Jan Vrem said he could not commentspecifically on negotiations, but added theunion and the employer did have meetingslast week, though he wasn’t sure when thenext ones were scheduled.

Last Tuesday’s strike took placeat 55 locations throughout B.C., includ-ing the Burnaby Claims and the BurnabyLitigation/Commercial Claims centres andthe New Westminster Claims Centre.

The union participated in a strike with theB.C. Government and Service Employees’Union and the Professional EmployeesAssociation on Sept. 5, as well.

COPE 378 members voted 87 per cent infavour of job action on April 24.

But ICBC made an essential serviceapplication to the B.C. Labour RelationsBoard on April 19, suspending the union’sability to take action.

The board then handed down an interimorder on June 13. The union could takejob action with 48 hours’ notice, “if the jobaction does not dip below the essential ser-vice levels applied for by ICBC.”

ICBC has asked that claims, insuranceand driver licensing services be declaredessential during any potential job action.The order is in place until the board issuesa final order after the essential service hear-ings are finished.

ICBC’s collective agreement expired inJune 2010. The two parties have been innegotiations since January 2011.

In the last quarter century, theBurnaby-based Pacific AssistanceDogs Society has successfully trained543 golden and Labrador retrievers tohelp people with disabilities.

For those who have been pairedwith a working dog, the relationshipmeans greater independence and abond like no other.

From picking up dropped keys toopening doors and turning off lights,the society’s dogs eagerly provide aservice to those clients who have lim-ited use of their limbs.

“The dogs become the arms and legsof the clients,” said the society’s execu-tive director, Laura Watamanuk.

Today, there are 77 working dogspaired with clients across WesternCanada, mostly in B.C. and Alberta.

In celebration of the society’s 25thanniversary, the annual graduationceremony on Sunday, Sept. 30 willinclude a presentation and receptionopen to the public at the Michael J.Fox Theatre, at 7373 MacPherson Ave.from 2 to 5 p.m.

The event will feature a puppyparade with working dogs and dogs intraining on site. Everyone is welcometo see the newest class of young pupsgraduate, with their leashes passedfrom trainers to new clients.

For Watamanuk, it’s also a goodopportunity to honour the many vol-unteers who keep the organizationrunning; from breeders to trainers,puppy raisers, to office staff and oth-ers.

“I wish people understood howhard the society’s crew work to fur-ther their efforts, with not a lot ofreward,” she said. “I’m proud of thisdedicated crew that work tirelessly tohelp someone else.”

Pacific Assistance Dogs Societyis a non-profit organization fundedentirely through individual donationsand grants.

A lot has changed at the organiza-tion in the last year, with a revampedtraining program and new staff mem-bers on board.

As well, starting in October, staffwill go to animal shelters and rescueorganizations on a weekly basis to

assess small breeds as potential hear-ing aid dogs.

Watamanuk said the society feels itis important to consider giving someof these dogs a chance to become ser-vice dogs.

She also said she is excited to moveahead with a new training programand improve the volunteer recruit-ment process.

People are needed for a wide vari-ety of work to be done, both on siteand in the community, and a list ofpositions, items and services requiredis available on the website – www.pads.ca.

In particular, office assistance, eventplanning and renovations help wouldbe appreciated; and, of course, peopleare needed on an ongoing basis toraise puppies from eight weeks to helpsocialize them. Two litters of Labradorretrievers are expected to be weanedby Christmas and will be ready to beplaced with volunteers.

While it used to be that one puppywould be placed with a family or indi-vidual for at least one year, the newtraining regime involves rotating thepuppies with different volunteers tobetter socialize them early on.

“We say it takes a village to raise adog,” said Watamanuk.

Besides recruiting new volunteers,the society has a goal of raising aware-ness of its services in Saskatchewanand Manitoba, as well as obtainingpermanent ownership of a buildingsite.

The location on Stormont Avenuehas been leased from the City ofBurnaby at a reduced rate since thenon-profit was founded in 1987, butWatamanuk said, “Our dream is tohave a permanent facility that weown.”

Challenges with fundraising havebeen evident in the last few yearsdue to the economic downturn, butWatamanuk said new campaigns arein the works, and the organization isgetting the word out to more peoplenow through a regularly updatedwebsite, Facebook page and Twitteraccount.

For more information about volun-teering or the anniversary event, visitwww.pads.ca.

Dogs with jobs who do good deeds

Happy to help: Laura Watamanuk, executive director of the Pacific Assistance Dogs Society, withchocolate Lab, Pepper, is looking forward to celebrating the society’s past 25 years of enhancingthe lives of people with disabilities throughout Western Canada.

Burnaby author’s new book tells a salty taleIf anybody knows about the history

of the B.C. fishing industry, it’s NormanSafarik.

The 93-year-old North Burnaby resi-dent recently published a memoir thatlooks at his long career running VancouverShellfish & Fish Company.

Safarik and his son, Allan Safarik, anaward-winning writer, co-authored thebook, called Bluebacks and Silver Brights:A Lifetime in the B.C. Fisheries From Bountyto Plunder.

Part business story, part social history,and part eco-memoir, the work chronicles

the adventures of fishermen on the PacificCoast and tells the story of a man whospent his lifetime in the fishing industry.

Safarik gives an account of the colour-ful characters he met in his more than 65years working with other fishermen whooften risked their lives for their work.

The authors also highlight the chang-es in the fishing industry through thedecades, and suggest the current prac-tice of farming fish on B.C.’s coast is“akin to growing wheat in flowerpots inSaskatchewan.”

Burnaby filmmaker Fred Swindells, ofAnnoying Moose Entertainment Inc., isless than a month away from releasing hisfirst movie on DVD.

The Husband Chair is the first featurefilm for Swindells, who this summer wonfourth place and tied for first place attwo separate film festivals in the UnitedStates.

Most of the scenes are very obviouslyof New Westminster, which is where thefilm was shot in summer, 2011.

The three main locations were DeDutchPannekoek House and Copp’s Shoes, aswell as Riverview Hospital in Coquitlam.

The plot involves a young couple whodecide to visit an old shoe store before itgets torn down to make way for condo

development.The boyfriend thinks the shoe store

would be a romantic spot to propose,but before he can get down on one knee,the store ownerhas a heart attack,which throws offthe young man’scarefully choreo-graphed proposal.

“Basically, thewhole idea is thatwe all make plans,but you neverknow just whatthe future holds,”Swindells said.“And you have tostay flexible andplay the cards thatGod deals you.”

Swindells actu-ally had to take his own advice in mak-ing the film, with all the challenges andchanges that came about throughoutfilming and during post-production in

the last year.While the original script called for a

115-minute feature, the final movie isjust under 40 minutes because of funding

setbacks.“It became

clear very quicklythat I didn’t haveenough of a bud-get to shoot theentire length ofit,” he said, butnoted this didnot hamper thequality or struc-ture of the story,which turned outto be better thanhe had originallyanticipated.

“And the factthat I’m about to have it distributed is

kind of neat.”He raised the capital for the project to

fund a $40,000 budget, and wrote, direct-ed and produced the film himself.

When he is not writing, directing orproducing films, Swindells works at aprivately owned biology lab in Burnaby.

He said he would love to become aprofessional filmmaker, but the core ofhis passion for filmmaking comes fromwriting the scripts, and he is happiestwhen putting his ideas on paper.

“I’ve got about half a dozen sketchesof movies in mind that I would like todo,” he said.

His best advice for other fledglingfilmmakers is to relentlessly pursue anypassion that is a true calling.

“Just keep doing what you love doing,”he said. “And if, for some reason, it feelslike it’s become a job, that it’s a pain, well,then you’re doing it wrong.”

The finished release of The HusbandChair with director’s commentary andDVD extras will be released within thenext few weeks.

Reason tocare

Inside

Heart problems can’t keep a good dad down

There must be some mistake, thought Johnny Gahir.After all, the robust, energetic 37-year-old father oftwo from Surrey exercised regularly and took goodcare of himself. But there was no mistaking the chestpains he was experiencing after coming home fromthe gym on May 3rd, 2008. A cardiology stress test athis local hospital revealed a shadow on the front ofhis heart and the need for a referral to RCH’s cardiacteam.An angioplasty at RCH revealed that Johnny had

an 80 per cent blockage to his main artery, and so astent was inserted to restore the blood flow.The following Valentine’s Day, Johnny had an

unusual feeling in his chest—and it had nothing to dowith the romanticholiday. He went tohis local hospital,and was immedi-ately referred againto RCH for anotherstent.Life returned to

normal for awhileuntil January 2012,while crossingthe Canada – U.S.border, Johnnyexperienced an-

other heart attack. As his heart condition was provingto be resistant to treatment with stents, RCH CardiacSurgeon Dr. Daniel Wong opted to perform open heartdouble bypass surgery on Johnny.“You don’t normally expect to see a patient in their

30s with an absence of risk factors like genetics, poorhealth, etc. suffering from heart disease, but it hap-pens,” says Dr. Wong.Now, nothing is holding Johnny back from going

about his regular routine, which includes riding on his

by jodi martens andshannon henderson

motorbike and running after his children.“Half of my job is to treat the disease, and the other

half is to help patients understand the disease andwhat they can do to help themselves. Johnny has re-ally taken charge of his health in this respect.”Says Johnny: “From the moment you’re born until

you pass, at some point you’re going to need thecaring hands of medical professionals, and, if you’refortunate enough to be cared for by the quality staff atRCH, you’re blessed.”

Johnny Gahir’s family is happy that he is home, heart healthy and happy again, thanks to RCH.

Dr. Daniel Wong, RCH Cardiac Surgeon.

RCH redevelopmentmoves forward150Reasons to GiveWhat’s your reason?

Our campaign for the future

On June 12th, 2012our birthday wishcame true: RoyalColumbian Hospitalreceived approvalfrom the provincialgovernment to pro-ceed with the re-development of thesite. This expansionwill enable RCH to

fulfill its mandate as a provincial centre of specializedcare, and help take the pressure off many communityhospitals within the region. While many years of plan-ning and building lie ahead, it is a tremendously excit-ing time to be a part of Royal Columbian Hospital.In the meantime, there are terrific opportunities

to support patient care here. In celebration of RoyalColumbian’s 150 years of medical excellence, we havelaunched our 150 Reasons to Give campaign to raise$1.5 million for critically needed equipment through-out the hospital. With your support, we can move RCHforward into this exciting phase of its history.

On June 12, 2012, former Health Minister Michael deJong announced the formal start of work on the rede-velopment of Royal Columbian Hospital.“Royal Columbian Hospital is at a crossroads in its

history,” said de Jong. “Now is the time to celebrateits past, create a vision for the future and take imme-diate concrete steps in the present to ensure the bestcare for patients both in RCH and throughout FraserHealth.”The redevelopment is anticipated to include hun-

dreds of additional beds, a larger emergency depart-ment, a new surgical suite and consolidation of criticalcare beds.

“Will he even rememberme? The kids?Will he be able to speak again? Thosewere someof the things that passed throughmymind during those dark days. Everyone toldme howluckywewere that hewas at Royal Columbian, and that gaveme hope.” – Marnie James,wife of Trevor James, who underwent two brain surgeries after falling off a ladder at work.

“Trauma can affect any one of us at any time. Caring for the criticallyinjured takes awhole team and having the right equipment also plays amajor role in helping us save lives and reduce the lifelong impact of seri-ous injuries.” - Dr. Iain MacPhail (centre), Program Medical Director, FraserHealth Trauma Services.

“This is our community, this is where we are, and we all con-sider the Royal Columbian to be our hospital. We take greatpride in our commitment to support RCH, as we feel we arecontributing to a valuable partner, both on a personal anda professional level.” – Frank Butzelaar, President and CEO,Southern Railway of British Columbia (below).

“The ER is a difficult and a challenging place both forpatients and for those of uswho care for them. Yet the samestress and chaos thatmakes this place so challenging, alsoprovides an opportunity to experience some of life’s great-est wonders.We are tested almost daily to see how farwewill bend, but over the years I have been awed by the resil-ience and compassion of the people I workwith.” – Mary VanOsch, Clinical Nurse Educator, Emergency Programs.

“Nomatter how experiencedwe are,making life-and-death decisions is easier and better whenwehave the appropriate technology and equipment.Every dollar buys us time…time that ultimatelysaves lives.” – Dr. Gerald Simkus, Program MedicalDirector, Cardiac Sciences.

“There is no better medical centre tosupport. Through our experiences, bothpersonal and professional, we have seenhow donor fundingmakes a real impacton patients’ lives. So by leaving a gift inourWills, we can help RCH continue todeliver the best in health care innova-tion into the future.” – RCH CardiologistDr. Akbar Lalani and wife, Shamin.

“For such a rottenthing to have hap-

pened tome, Ihad an awesome

experience inRCH. It was agood environ-

ment. I was sur-rounded by lots oflaughter – and I’mprofoundly grate-ful to the nurses

and doctorswho savedmylife. Theywere

amazing.” – MarcoLundy, who sufferedserious injuries afterbeing thrown froma horse she wastraining last fall.

“I am so grateful that I landedin the care of the wonderfulstaff at RCH. I couldn’t haveasked for a better or more ded-icated group to bring me backto life! There were many diffi-cult moments in the ICU whenI felt as though I would neverget better and I am so thank-ful for such a fantastic teamwho pushed me to recovery.”– Alexandra Kroetsch, who sur-vived a deadly infection causedby the H1N1 virus.

“Sadly, comeMay 17, 2011, we said good bye toour little Brooklyn.What reallymeant themostto us in thatmomentwas the compassion theNICU staff had, how they criedwith us, andshared sympathetic wordswith us. TheymadeBrooklyn’s passing a peaceful intimatemomentfor us, and for thatwewill always hold themdear.” – Tanya Foulds and Joel Wilson with Isabella(left) and Charlotte.

Royal Columbian’s Enduring Tradition ofTraining

Royal Columbian Hospital (RCH) will be marking twonumerical milestones this year: celebrating its 150thyear of operation, and welcoming its 1000th first-yearmedical resident.In a province identified by its relative youth, the

New Westminster hospital is an institution steepedin history, born in the days when many of the city’sinhabitants still lived in tents and British Columbiawas still a colony ruled from distant England.Besides becoming a regional hub of medical care,

it also became a major training centre for healthprofessionals. It was the home of the province’sfirst nursing school, and launched a medical resi-dency program in 1950, the same year the Faculty ofMedicine was founded (one of the residents who camethrough the hospital, John Noseworthy, is now theCEO of the Mayo Clinic).The hospital formalized its educational role with

UBC in 1988, leading to greater numbers of its physi-cians becoming clinical faculty, and aligning its curric-ulum with other postgraduate training programs in B.C.

From B.C.’s first nursing school to today’sClinical Academic Campus of UBC

That identity was reaffirmed in 2002, when RoyalColumbian became a Clinical Academic Campus ofUBC, reflecting its extensive educational programsand facilities. Today, those programs and facilitiesinclude a clinical teaching unit that combines trainingof undergraduate medical students and residents.A first-year residency program draws 29 new physi-

cians to the hospital each year to pursue postgradu-ate training, and a student-led rehabilitation clinicserves the occupational therapy and physical therapyneeds of New Westminster and surrounding commu-nities.“Royal Columbian has a huge capacity in clinical

care,” says Dr. Dale Stogryn, UBC’s Site Director formedical education. “For example, it has the highestinterventional cardiology volume in Canada outsideToronto, and very high neurosurgery volumes. At thesame time, we’ve maintained a family atmosphere.Students like to come here because they’re welcomedas part of the team.”

RCH’s 1000th first-year medical resident Dr. Sadiq Abdulla is training to become an anesthesiologist.

New arrival

In Dec. 2009, Amie MacNeilwas induced into labour at RCH,as she had developed mild hy-pertension. Little did she knowat the time she would undergoa medical crisis, and if it wasn’tfor the staff and services atRCH, may not have survived thebirth of her son, Jacob.“After a lengthy labour and

a C-section, I was still able tohold my son and feed him forthe first time.”That is all she can remember

before the post-natal ordealthat followed. Amie started tohemorrhage, and doctors had to remove her uterus.Then, during surgery, Amie went into cardiac arrest.When the doctor came back, he told Amie’s husband

Todd that she was stabilized, but still in rough shape.“I asked the nurses to bring Jacob down because

nobody knew if Amy would make it through the night,”he says.

Over the next several days, doctors fought to takeAmie off a respirator. After performing a tracheotomyto help her breathe without a respirator, Amie was onher way to recovery.Amie was finally discharged on Dec. 30. “We were

lucky to have been at Royal Columbian…they wentabove and beyond.” Read the full story on rchcares.com

night,” recalls husband Todd. Amie’s story is now being written up in medical journals.

MORREY NISSAN4450 Still Creek Drive, Burnaby, BC

Tel: (604) 291-7261 www.morrey.burnaby.nissan.ca

WHEELSWHEELSWHEELS DealsDealsDealsAN

DThe Nissan Rogue has been one of those “sleeper”

cars that people don’t seem to notice or talk about, butsomehow manages to do quite well in various reviewsand car tests.

For example, the Nissan Rogue was voted the bestnew SUV/CUV Under $35,000 sold in Canada, whenintroduced for 2008. Euro styling, great fuel economyand an extra-roomy interior made it stand out in a verypopular market segment that continues to grow, andgrow.

Since then, good consumer reliability and crash safetyratings have helped make Rogue a solid new vehiclepurchase, especially for those smart shoppers who onlyinvest in a vehicle with a proven track-record. Andfor the 2012 model year, Nissan has added a new top-level SL trim with all options, including leather, for just$34,274.

A favourite of mine, Nissan’s brilliant Around ViewMonitor system also comes with this SL package. Theultimate parking aid, it provides live camera viewsfrom above, side and back, at the push of a button. The

overhead (bird’s eye) view isa computer generated imagecreated by four small super-wide-angle cameras that give a360° view of objects all aroundthe Rogue.

All Rogue models comewith the same 2.5 litre, 4 cylin-der engine matched with a(CVT) automatic transmission.The base S and mid-level SVtrim levels are available in bothfront-drive and all-wheel-driveand the SL is only availablewith all-wheel-drive.

The 2.5-litre engine is adouble-overhead-camshaftarrangement with continuously

variable valve control, and it can produce up to 170hp and 175 lb-ft of torque. It’s tuned to provide goodtorque in the low-to-mid rpm range and quick initialresponse from a standing start. It’s also easy on fuel and,as you might expect, the lighter front-drive versions arethe most economical.

The Xtronic CVT (continuously variable transmis-sion) has adaptive logic control that adjusts gear ratiosto different driving situation and driver demands. Anew sport mode switch has also been added and itinstantly changes the ratio selection to a more aggres-sive pattern.

The AWD system can send up to 100 per cent ofdrive to either the front or rear wheels, if required. It’sinterlinked with the Rogue’s electronic stability controlsystem and it can also be locked (another button) in50/50 distribution, which is very useful on snow cov-ered or slippery road surfaces. The default drive settingsends all power to the front wheels and, under normaldriving conditions this, offers best fuel economy.

Rogue’s rear suspension is somewhat unique inthis class. It’s an independent multi-link system thatincludes aluminum-alloy upper links and shock absorb-ers with rebound springs. It’s design also allows more(versus a strut type rear suspension) cargo space in therear. There’s a lot of good competition in the compactutility market, with the recently revised Honda CR-Vand new Ford Escape leading the charge. Rogue leansmore to its SUV roots than some of its newer competi-tors, as it offers good ground clearance and a lockablefour wheel drive system.

Style:A good-looking vehicle from day one, the French

connection in the Rogue’s design gives it a distinctive

look that stands outamong its two-box com-petitors. Exterior changesto the 2012 Rogue arecertainly modest, but doinclude a new chromelicence plate finisher and arear spoiler.

Rogue is built onNissan’s “C” platform(shared with Sentra) anduses high-strength steelextensively to reduce bodyweight. It has a long 2,690mm wheelbase and thebody also features extralarge doors with wideopenings that make get-ting in or out of a Roguean easier task.

InsideThe interior lacks the

flair of the exterior and,although on the plainside, it is pleasant enoughand very practical. Lots ofgood storage spots, includ-ing an extra-large glovebox and central consolestorage bin.

The cabin can seat five,but a third adult occupantin the centre back seatwould probably find it atight fit. There are also lotsof handy little trays, binsand other spots to stowstuff and the rear cargoarea provides 818 litres ofspace. The 60/40 split rearseatback increases this to1,639 litres when foldeddown, but doesn’t providea fully flat cargo floor.

Bluetooth hands-freephone, iPod and audioconnectivity are standard.Even a base Rogue comeswith cruise control. Mytest SL came with auto-matic climate control,Nissan Intelligent Key, aBose audio system andblack leather upholsterywith sexy red stitching.

SecureStandard safety features

in Rogue include the usualfront, side and side-curtainair bags, plus active headrestraints on the frontseats. There’s also a roll-over sensor that can alsoactivate the roof-mountedcurtain air bags.

The Rogue got animpressive overall 4-starrating from the morestringent new US SaferCarcrash test program. Itearned 4-star ratings in thefrontal and roll-over testsand a 5-star rating on sideimpact.

DriveThe driver sits tall in

a seat that offers goodforward sight lines, whichis one of the reasons that

more and more buyersare choosing this type ofvehicle. While the Rogue’sback window looks bigenough (from the out-side), the driver’s view,via the rear-view mir-ror, was disappointinglyrestrictive. That said, thearound-view camera morethan compensates for thisdrawback.

Lots of adjustment fea-tures help the driver finda good seating position,including seat cushionheight, but the steeringwheel (column) did nothave a telescopic feature.

Loved the round air ventsin the dash, as they weresimple to use and pro-vided a wide range of dir-ectional control.

Pressing on the gaspedal produces animmediate initial reac-tion from the Rogue’s bigfour-cylinder engine. It’sa quiet, torque-rich engineat low to mid-range enginespeeds, but the (CVT)transmission may not be toeveryone’s liking.

A CVT doesn’t operatewith that familiar steppedgear change linearity thata conventional automatic

provides. Its well-inten-tioned efforts to alwayskeep the engine in an opti-mal power/fuel economyspeed range also results ina constant speed “drone”that some find undesir-able. It is, however, a moreefficient transmission thana conventional automatic.

Rogue has a light, agiledriving feel with precisesteering characteristics anda taut yet supple suspen-sion. It provides a moreengaging car-like drivingexperience than you gener-ally expect or get in a util-ity vehicle.

Nissan: Popular car gets rave reviews thanks to styling and spacecontinued from page 35

From from inside: The Rogue’s interior is practical,but not showy.

Simple tips to keep fit, help injuries and tone

QuestionI have an old ankle injury

that is acting up. What is agood exercise to strengthenthat area?

AnswerAnkle sprains and feel-

ings of ankle instabilitycan be very frustratingand take longer than otherinjuries to heal because theankles bear the weight ofthe entire body.

Three-way heel raiseswill help to strengthenyour calf muscles, whichin turn provide strengthand stability to the lowerleg.

To perform this exer-cise, place the balls of bothyour feet on a two-inchriser or similar object.

Start with your toespointing in and ankles out.Slowly rise onto your toesand hold for one to twoseconds.

Return to your startingposition and perform fiveto 10 repetitions.

Perform your next fiveto 10 repetitions with yourtoes pointingout and thefinal five to10 repetitionswith yourtoes pointingstraight ahead.

You shouldfeel this exer-cise in yourcalf muscles.Take a 20- to40-secondbreak andperform twoto three setsdepending on your com-fort level.

To increase the diffi-culty of this exercise, useone leg at a time insteadof two.

QuestionIs it better to breathe out

on the hard part of the exer-cise or the easy part?

AnswerStrengthening exercises

have a concentric con-traction (shortening) andan eccentric contraction

(lengthening).For example, when per-

forming barbell curls theconcentric contraction iswhen you are curling the

barbell up toyour chest andthe eccentriccontractionis when youlower the bar-bell down.

With bar-bell curls thehardest partis the way upbecause youare fightinggravity.

In gen-eral it is best

to breathe out during thispeak exertion part of theexercise.

However, the mostimportant thing to remem-ber when breathing andweight training is tobreathe consistently andto develop a rhythm withyour exercise pace.

Do not hold your breathwhile performing strength-ening exercises as it is nec-essary for your muscles tobe provided with oxygen.

If you hold your breathyou will get dizzy and

your strength will be lim-ited.

QuestionWhat is the best leg ton-

ing exercise that I can do athome?

AnswerDumbbell Squats are a

great exercise for toningup your lower body, espe-cially your quadriceps andgluteus maximus.

To perform this exercisestand with good posture,holding your dumbbells atyour sides.

Your feet should beshoulder width apart withyour toes angled slightlyoutward. Keep your backflat and bend your knees,lowering yourself intoa full squatting positionwith your knees bent toapproximately 90 degreesor your thighs parallel to

the floor. Without bounc-ing in the bottom position,slowly reverse the move-ment and return to thestarting position.

Perform two to threesets of 10 to 15 repetitionstwo to three times eachweek and you will seeand feel your legs changeshape.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections Sept. 30 - Oct. 6, 2012★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Aries March 21 - April 19: The accent remainson crucial relationships. This week ends three yearsof relationship disappointment – and, hopefully, endsyour less than shining attitude toward others. (Yes,implication intended.) Your energy and charismaremain high through Monday. This eve brings goodmoney developments, if you think long term. Anaffectionate trend enters your workplace midweek,for most of October – but don’t let stardust make youchase a sweet, success-sapping illusion. Errands,paperwork, details, casual friends fill Thursday toFriday: talk, news or travel inspires you. Gemini aids.Taurus April 20-May 20: This week ends threeyears of hard work. If you shirked work, you’re aboutto encounter three years of consequences via others’responses to your employment efforts. Well, lessonlearned. Whether you’ve worked hard or not, thethree years ahead bring hard-to-seize but valuableopportunities in cultural, legal, love, philosophical,and,most beneficially, educational strivings: these willreward for 10 years ahead. “Truer” love will redeema past mistake. Rest and plan Sunday/Monday. Yourenergy and charisma surge midweek. Money’s luckyThursday/Friday: something new is brewing!Gemini May 21-June 20: You might fall in lovesoon. You’ll be surprised at how much someonewants to please/help you. Falling in love has alot to do with confidence and disregard for theconsequences. That’s why old people (like me)find it so hard to do. This week ends three years ofan over-emphasis on sex, and a grey pall on love.Saturday begins six weeks of romantic courage andintense relationships – friends and enemies! Hopesfill Sunday/Monday. You’re weary midweek, butTuesday begins 25 days of affection in home andfamily. Your energy and inspiration soar Thursdayonward – start something!

Cancer June 21-July 22: The accent remainson home, kids, garden, nutrition, rest, Mother Natureand security. A pall, glue, lifts off these things late thisweek (for three decades). You might need to choosebetween these home interests and outside ambitionsSunday/Monday. A few days of hope, friendlinessand “fun times” begin Monday eve. By Wednesday ifnot before, you begin to glimpse the poetry of love,whether in your situation or someone else’s. Retreat,rest, plan and seek the spiritual (or be charitable)Thursday to Saturday. A beneficial project might beginhere, or in governmental areas.Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Travel, communicate,handle paperwork, write reports, do errands duringthis busy but not overly-important week. (There isone significant theme; it drifts just beyond sight– but not beyond sensing: money and sex drift intoan “inspiration” lane now, so follow your hunches inmoney/investments, and follow “poetry” in physicalattractions.) Wisdom comes early week, though youmight not like its insights. Be ambitious, approachhigher-ups Monday eve to Wednesday. Flirtations,popularity, accurate optimism about your futurecome Thursday to Saturday. That inspiration/poetrykick in.Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Chase money. Incomeand spending restrictions lift this week, for manyyears. Sunday/Monday are for investigations –though you might not like what you find, you needto know it. Intimacy or money, lifestyle or healthmight be involved. Wisdom, gentle love drift over youMonday eve to Wednesday – and they bring splendidinspiration or intriguing flashes of opportunity, of far-away places, or of love/marriage. All these requirea more intuitive, less logical way of thinking. (Theinspiration continues, like a dream, into Friday.) Beambitious late week – success likely!

Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Your energy and charisma,clout and effectiveness continue at a yearly high.Even better, the sober pall that has lain over you forthree years ends this week. Not all will be solved(relationshipsandhome/security remainproblematicalfor some years) but you’ll certainly bounce upwardsoon. Sunday/Monday might signal the end of acertain type of relationship: good. Monday eve toWednesday brings secrets, financial and intimate“openings” and the opportunity to make changes.Your inspiration grows about work and obligations.Late week, learning, love, travel: your choice.Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Lie low, rest, contemplateand plan. Deal with government, institutions andlarge corporations. Fulfill old obligations. All thesework to free you for late month and November,when important things will begin (and return). Tacklechores early week. Monday eve to Wednesday bringsrelationships, opportunities and opposition: proceedwith the confidence not of strength, but of intuition:yours is splendid now, and growing. Hopes aboutromance seem unrealistic, but in this fantasy layssolid truth. Mysteries, research, sexual and financialurges come late week: success indicated!Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: The accent lies onwish fulfillment, optimism, friends and popularity,entertainment and light romance. You could meeta good life mate this “year” (to June ’13) so amonth like this one is important – especially asFriday ends a three-year wet blanket on this socialzone, and Saturday begins six weeks of romanticcourage and sudden, intense relationships – butI’m anticipating. Sunday/Monday emphasizethe same old restricted romance. Tackle choresMonday eve to Wednesday. Thursday to Saturdaybring relationships, exciting meetings, new linksand home/privacy inspiration.

Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Be ambitious. Focuson prestige relationships (e.g., butter up the boss)shore up your community reputation, study (then acton) career options, etc. This arena has been a strugglefor some years, but this week sows a change to moreease and happiness in ambition – you’ll agree, in amonth or few! Sunday/Monday fight this trend, so restup, lie low and attend to basics. Care for your children.Romance, creative surges please you Monday eveto Wednesday. Tackle chores Thursday to Saturday– these days begin, socially, to help your ambitions– see inspiration, accept and use it!Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: October features gentlelove, intellectual empathy, learning, far travel, legalaffairs, fame, culture, internationalism, compassionand understanding of society’s ways. Soon, you’llexpand joyously into at least one of these areas! (E.g.,travel, succeed at university, fall in love, etc.) Yourcommunication abilities will virtually explode – youmight have to slow yourself down so others can catchup. (Small hints of this Sunday/Monday.) Be home,care for family midweek. Thursday to Friday bringromance, pleasure, beauty: true love? Money/careerinspirations are spot on.Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: October promotesinvestments, debt reduction, inheritances, otherpeople’s money, sexual urges, mysteries andresearch, health diagnosis, commitments and lifestylechanges. Long-lasting delays and restrictions lift fromthis general area Friday, freeing you to plunge intothem profitably, successfully, in the month and yearsahead – especially this October to next June, whenan investment in real estate can be a huge lifetimewinner; or sex can create a very lucky child, etc. Youwill be imbued with wisdom about this and othersubjects now, especially Thursday/Friday. Act!
