Shutteredschool tobe soldBrent [email protected]

THE North Vancouverschool board has votedto sell the shutteredRidgeway Annex toproperty developerAnthem for roughly$5.1 million — the firstof what could be severalschool sales in the yearsahead.

The decision passed with a4-2 vote this week.

While the majority on theschool board agreed selling theland was a tough but necessarydecision, there was spiritedopposition on the philosophicalgrounds that the land shouldremain public.

Trustee Susan Skinner ledthe charge to stop the sale,saying selling Ridgeway Annexwould be set a precedent.

“I don’t feel we have enoughinformation on communityneeds for today and the future,”she said. Skinner said themandate of the school districthas expanded to include othercommunityneeds,andsuggestedsurveying other relevant publicservice agencies to gauge theircurrent and future requirements.

A Craigslist scammer has left at least oneNorth Vancouver teenager empty handed aftersuccessfully pawning off phony tickets for OneDirection’s July 27 concert at Rogers Arena.

After exchanging emails, North Vancouver mother ShawnaBaker met with the seller at Pacific Centre mall in the hopes ofscoring tickets on behalf of her teenage daughter.

“Her wall is full of their pictures and she’s got a big stand-up

poster,” Baker said.The asking price of $650 for two tickets seemed steep, but

Baker’s daughter sold her Taylor Swift tickets in the hopes ofraising enough cash to catch the English quintet’s pop stylingslive and in person.

The vendor, a teenage girl with long black hair, told Bakerthe money from the ticket sale was going toward a family trip

to Honduras.Baker compared the tickets with passes from other shows. She

noted a bar code, sponsorship information, and a disclaimer.“She seemed very genuine and sweet, and I said to my husband

right after we left, ‘They’re too young to be scammers,’” Bakersaid.

She took the tickets home and eventually discovered thesubterfuge after reading a Province article about event codes onfraudulent tickets.

“I had to look at them three times just to make sure,” she

said. “Sure enough, the eventcode was the same (as the one)the other girl had identified.”

She also noted the receiptcarried a 2013 purchase date,despite the concert being sold-out since 2012.

While the situation isn’tquite as heart wrenchingas One Direction’s ballad“I Wish,” it’s nonethelessdisappointing, Baker said.

“She sold her TaylorSwift tickets to buy theseones instead, so she’s kindof lost out on two concerts,”Baker said. “She hasn’t cried,though.”

Vancouver Police recentlyarrested a 16-year-old forselling fake One Directiontickets.

“From what I got fromthe description, it sounds thesame,” Baker said.

Baker’sdaughterisplanningto keep the counterfeit ticketsasmemorabilia,but still hopingto make it to the show.

“I’ve entered her in acontest on The Beat,” Bakersaid. “I haven’t decided myselfif we’re going to fork up moremoney for her to go.”

The fleecing will likelykeep Baker from buying onCraigslist again, she said.

“It justbafflesme.Someoneelse must have printed thetickets. I don’t think theywould be sophisticatedenough to operate that kindof ring.”

A bridge too farCN Rail’s plan to cut the staff who

operate the Second Narrows raillift bridge and replace them with

a system of cameras and remote controlby the end of this year is troubling.

The company claims it won’t affectoperations or safety, but the study theyused to conclude that hasn’t been madepublic.

The timing of the revelationcouldn’t be worse as Canadians arestill processing the devastation in Lac-Megantic caused by a rail accident.Many people are now questioning thelargely secretive nature of rail safetyregulations.

CN’s system will still have a numberof failsafes designed to ensure a trainnever goes off the tracks and a tankership never plows into the bridge. Butas anyone who’s had to deal with thetechnology knows, cameras break,

transmission feeds drop, and computerscrash. A human has always been on siteat the rail bridge so far.

This isn’t just a concern for thetankers filled to the brim with crudeoil. Hundreds of recreational boaterstraverse the Second Narrows on theirtrips through the Burrard Inlet. Noone appears to be asking them aboutthe change either.

It’s worth noting the irony of PortMetro Vancouver complaining about aunilateral decision being made and lackof consultation. The port has a historyof controversial decisions in whichdetailed studies on safety, noise andpollution are rarely divulged to theirresidential neighbours.

But in this case, if those in chargeat the port aren’t yet satisfied this is asafe way to run a rail bridge, neitherare we.

Housing squabble a sad statementMailbox

Dear Editor:On July 15 I attended a very sad City of North

Vancouver council meeting. One of the items onthe agenda was a motion related to the awardingof the affordable housing space in the Onni projectat 13th and Lonsdale. At earlier public hearingsrepresentatives of several non-profit organizations,including the YWCA, supported the project becauseof their interest in the community amenity: affordableunits for their clients.

My Own Space, an organization devoted tothe housing needs of developmentally challengedadolescents, fielded the largest number of advocates,and apparently expected to be rewarded with the

affordable units as a result. Staff, however, assuredthe public that there would be a public process tochoose the beneficiaries. When the motion callingfor expressions of interest came up to the full councilfour councillors voted for a public process, andthree argued for an immediate award to the parentadvocates.

Why should there be this kind of conflict in anaffluent community in an affluent province in anaffluent country, where housing is supposed to be ahuman right? Is it because of federal and provincialindifference to housing needs? One councillor thinksso. He referred to the awarding of affordable unitsas the municipality “doing the province’s work for

it.” Presumably he’s read “Housing VulnerablePopulations on the North Shore,” the most recentreport of The North Shore Homelessness TaskForce. That report mentions wait lists of two to tenyears for 446 City of North Vancouver applicants forbelow-market housing: single parent families, youth,low-income seniors, people with mental healthproblems, addictions and people with disabilities.What are we hearing from our provincial and federalrepresentatives, Naomi Yamamoto and AndrewSaxton, about what they are doing to address theseneeds?Donna StewartNorth Vancouver

Dear Editor:We can say thank you to our provincial government for our hydro rates going

up. It was our provincial government which forced BC Hydro into money-losinglong-term contracts with private power producers, even though BC Hydro’s ownfacilities were under-utilized.

It was our provincial government which forced BC Hydro into a highlyunpopular and expensive (rumored to cost $1 billion) smart meter program. Itis our provincial government which is forcing BC Hydro into the biggest moneyloser of them all, Site C. BC Hydro’s own figures show that Site C’s power willcost upward of 10 cents per kilowatt hour and industrial users currently pay lessthan 4 cents per kwh.

What is more, the cost of Site C power crucially depends on the interest BCHydro will have to pay to service the $8 billion in debt accrued to finance Site

C. Should interest rates rise, Site C power will cost much more than 10 centsper kwh. So no matter how one looks at it, Site C will be a huge money loserthat could push BC Hydro one step closer to bankruptcy — unless of course,residential users pay much higher rates to subsidize industrial users.

Site C is also completely unnecessary since the natural gas liquefaction plantscould generate their own power using gas turbines at a cost of around 7 centsper kwh.

It is indeed shocking that there is no public outcry denouncing the plannedflooding of one of the most scenic valleys in our beautiful province, destroyingthousands of acres of the most fertile farmland, and, in the process, driving up ourresidential power rates to subsidize large industrial users.Reimar KroecherNorth Vancouver

The rise of tablets not for the squinty eyedTHAT’S it — I’mover. I know I’ve madethis proclamationbefore, to zero fanfare.But some lightsummer reading hasreinforced my beliefthat my generationis efficiently andstrategically beingphased out.

This is more than theusual burden shoulderedby my group, whichdisingenuously refers toitself as “middle-aged.”Most of us have alwaysunderstood that, after 40,we’d experience random andhumiliating aches and pains,a brisk, public slide downthe sexual attractivenessscale, and a disturbingincrease in mailed brochuresfrom funeral homes.

In other words, we’restarting to slowly circle thedrain.

Now we’re also facedwith the news that personalcomputer sales are in steepdecline worldwide, fallingbetween 11 and 14 per centin the first quarter of thisyear, compared to the sameperiod last year.

Experts suggest that PCsmight soon be elbowedout of the way by tablets,just as the late Steve Jobs,Apple’s lead troublemaker,predicted.

“So what?” you say?

Here’s the problem,Junior — tablets are far toosmall for people who requirebifocals for reading andwriting.

Skeptical? I paid aninnocent visit to my Internetbank account the otherday to pay a bill, and wasimpertinently asked to fillout an online questionnaireabout whether I’m a tabletuser.

“No,” I answered firmly,almost destroying the “N”and “O” keys — not thatmy murderous impulses willdo any good. I expect toreceive my first unsolicitedestate planning advice fromRBC shortly.

What possible societaluse can there be for peoplelike me if we can’t be soldgadgets and related gearthat must be constantlyupdated and replaced?

There are only so manycalls for sage elders and

wizened storytellers, andsoon those, too, will bepreferable in the form of anapp.

Obviously, the unspokenplan of the techno-dweebswho now dominate ourculture is to deport meand my bitter, squintingposse to remote mountaincaves — the kind Al Qaidafavours.

There, we’ll be expectedto spend our days quaintlytrying to recall the precisewording of Motown hits. Atnight, we’ll have to hunt forwild creatures to supplementthe provided supply ofquinoa, and, since we’re toovisually impaired to properlyoperate weapons, kill thecritters with our shakinghands.

Evidently, there’s noturning back on this trend.England’s Mail Onlinetriumphantly reported thisweek that two PhD studentsfrom the University ofLancaster have created “UbiDisplays” that are capableof turning any object into atablet computer.

“The technology usesa projector, a webcam anda PC to create interactivemulti-touch displaysanywhere and on anything,”declared the Mail in thesame tone of unquestioningdelight that it will use toinform the world that theroyal baby’s umbilical cordstump finally fell off.

As usual, nobody ever

asks why being able toproject a tablet computeron a wall is a positiveinnovation. The news storysimply shows a pictureof one of the inventorschecking the temperaturedisplayed on his front dooras he leaves his house. Letthe bells ring out.

I have enough troublegetting my husband, Stanleyto set down his iPhonewhen we’re dining at arestaurant, without havinghim watch the soy saucebottle for the latest stats onwho listened to his podcast,or read the NAZDAQ offhis paper napkin.

I should never havethrown that Loonie intothat well and wished for myfamily to read more. Hello,magical wish granter — Imeant actual books.

As these stupid gadgetsgain ground, those who

don’t rely on them areliterally becoming obsolete.The Telegraph onlinereported recently that anunemployed 58-year-oldBritish man had tried tosell himself on eBay. SteveSewell had experience as alabourer, bike mechanic,toilet paper tester and evenan IT technician — perhapsworking at the latter twojobs simultaneously, as I’vealways suspected was thenorm.

Despite Sewell’s startingthe price at 99 pence, andtossing a little old-man-style humour into his post— “some wear to movingparts, surface finish worn”— he was apparentlysuspected of being soundesirable that he didn’tattract a solitary bidder.And this was a tech guy, ofsorts! What a ruthless world.

It cannot be a

coincidence that at the sametime as Limey scientists arearranging to turn everythinginto tablets to pleaseimpatient tech junkies, aBritish firm is developing arocket engine that can boltsomebody into space injust 15 minutes. ReactionEngines’ Synergetic Air-Breathing Rocket Engine, orSABRE, will travel up to fivetimes the speed of sound.It may be fitted to existingaircraft, says the MailOnline, once again entirelyunworried about why.

The UK governmentwill fund the project. Nope,there’s nothing remotelysuspicious there.

Winner of the 2012 AutocheXPremier Achiever Award

for ExtraordinaryCustomer Satisfaction

But her motion only found oneother supporter in trustee BarryForward.Forward,whooversawthe process to determine thefuture of the closed schools, saidthe process had been good, butthat it had not gone far enough.“We have to look long term andwe have to look holistic and Idon’t see that right now.”

But those who voted for thesale argued that it was the mostprudent thing to do given thedistrict’s financial obligations.Money raised from the sale willgo to pay down a $7.2-milliondebt. The board borrowedthe money in the early 2000sto fund the renovations onSutherland secondary andWestview elementary, on thecondition that the debt be paidby Dec. 31, 2015 through thefuture sale of surplus assets.

Secretary treasurer GeorgiaAllison said the district ranthe risk of missing the debtrepayment deadline and beingforced by the province into apayback schedule if it did notsell Ridgeway Annex.

“The funds would comedirectly out of the classroombecause that’s the only place itcould come from – the operatingbudget,” she said. “It would bea significant impact. If we had topay for it over a two-year period,we would be looking at staffreductions of 36 teachers.”

The school district doesn’tknow what the form thedevelopment on the site willtake as Anthem has presented

several configurations rangingfrom single-family homes totownhouses. But in order for theprice tag to make sense, it wouldtake at least nine single familyhomes, according to staff.

Trustee Mike McGraw wassympathetic to the keep-it-public sentiment, but decidedafter “much soul searching” thatselling the land to Anthem is theonly realistic option. “At the endof the day, it’s really up to whocomes to me to present me withan offer. That’s the difficultythat we’re in,” he said.

Board chairwoman FranciStratton noted RidgewayAnnex’s neighbours werelooking for a resolution aboutthe future of the property. Shesaid those neighbours will beable to voice any concerns aboutthe future development througha rezoning process at the City ofNorth Vancouver.

Trustee Christie Sacrérecused herself from thediscussion as she lives directlyacross from the school but madea general statement on the saleof schools, reminding the boardof its number one job.

“Ibelieveweall as trusteesareopen to working with differentcommunity partners to do whatis best for our community withregards to the properties, butwe are school trustees, notmunicipal councillors. Our jobis to protect the interest of ourstudents as our first priority andmaintaining unused buildingsat approximately $30,000 peryear, per site on average, is nothelping them,” she said.

CHRIS Beveridge is warning others to be careful aftergetting caught in a snare while running on the BCMCTrail.

Runner warns of wire snare trap on trailAnne [email protected]

A trail runner is warningothers to keep an eye out afterbecoming ensnared on a GrouseMountain trail Tuesday.

Chris Beveridge was out for her regularrun on the BCMC Trail shortly before 2p.m. when she tripped and found a wirewrapped around her leg.

“I was probably only about 10 minutesfrom the top, so within the last quarter ofthe BCMC,” said Beveridge. “I just wentto avoid some rocks and roots and went inbetween a couple of trees and I tripped.”

Beveridge said she looked down andthought she was caught on some wires,

but when she tried to move forward shefell. She then unwound the wire from herleg and when she looked up, she realizedit was tied to the tree.

‘When I started pulling on it, I sawthat it was attached to the tree and itwent up over 20 feet,” she said. “It wasattached very tight.”

After coiling the wire at the base ofthe tree, Beveridge reported it to guestservices on Grouse Mountain and theRCMP, who told her to leave the wirebehind and they would collect it the nextday.

“I guess they couldn’t find it because Idid go back and remove it the next day,”she said. She took wire cutters with herbut when she returned the wire was notwhere she had left it.

“Someone had moved it, I don’t knowfor what purpose but it was really hard tosee,” said Beveridge. “It’s a very thin wirebut it’s got like a black rubber coating onit, very pliable.”

Beveridge said she has a bruise onthe back of her leg from where the wirecaught her. She said she has been runningthe BCMC Trail for around 14 years andusually runs it about three times a weekbut has never had this happen before.

“I was very shocked,” she said. “To meit wasn’t an accident, it didn’t just happenthat someone left it behind there.”

Beveridge said that although theBCMC is not as busy as the Grind, shesaw three people with dogs that day.

“I just want other people to be carefuland to keep their eyes open.”

Cell tower opponents to dial up public inputJeremy [email protected]

WEST Vancouver residents opposedto a trio of cell towers need to maketheir voices heard, says one districtcouncillor who spoke on the issue atrecent council meeting.

Rogers has proposed three 36-metre celltowers be erected over a two-kilometre stretch ofthe Trans-Canada Highway in West Vancouver.The thin, white towers house microwaveand radio antennae designed to improve themunicipality’s spotty wireless service.

Because Industry Canada has the last wordin the event of an impasse, West Vancouver’smunicipal government is left with few options,but Coun. Michael Lewis said residents whodon’t want the towers shouldn’t stay silent.

“At the end of the day we have very littlecontrol, but that doesn’t mean there is not anopportunity to make change,” he said. “The waythe change is going to be made here is basically

by burying the proponent in public inputsuggesting you don’t want to see this happen. Ithink you need to talk to your MLAs.”

Lewis suggested shorter towers, but thedistrict’s natural beauty makes that challenging,according to Rogers engineer Marc Draper.

“Doing smaller towers here would be greatif we could,” he said. “The trees in this area areenormous. Some of them are upwards of 100feet, and that of course will cause severe blockageto our radio signals.”

Approximately 17 per cent of WestVancouverites don’t have any wireless service,according to Draper. However, the new towersstill won’t get everyone online.

“If we went ahead . . . it would probablybring the number down to about 10 per cent ofthe community still being without service, so itdoesn’t solve all our problems.”

Without the new towers, bandwidth willbecome scarce in the district and Internet userswill see a 25 per cent reduction in data speed,according to Draper.

The towers would run along the highway

near Taylor Way and 26th Street, with anothertower at 15th Street obliterating the view ofhomeowner Ivan Marks.

“Towers will ruin our beautiful WestVancouver scenery,” Marks said.

With the tower about 100 metres from hisfront door, health effects were a major concernfor Marks. His concern was echoed by Coun.Bill Soprovich, who compared the government’snonchalance regarding radio waves to theinaction that once permitted the use of DDTand asbestos. “Why should we be treated asguinea pigs?” he asked. “If the new pollution iselectromagnetic radiation frequencies, then forgoodness sake let’s get to the bottom of it.”

Radiation caused by cell towers is tooinsignificant to cause health problems, accordingto Health Canada.

While the cell towers would be built onprovincial land, the federal government canapprove the project through the Ministry ofIndustry.

“What’s clear to me is the constituents areill-informed about the proposals,” said West

Vancouver-Sea to Sky MP John Weston.Weston’s wife, Donna, is one of those who

wrote to West Vancouver council opposing theproject, something Weston said he was informedof “after the fact.”

Weston, who lives in Dundarave whenparliament is not in session, said West Vanresidents need to know more about the project.

“I’d like to know that there’s minimal effecton health and safety, that the proposed coverageis needed by the citizens of my community,” hesaid.

While the higher elevations of WestVancouver may be at risk of being forcedoffline, the community should not be obligedto improve its cell service, according to Coun.Craig Cameron.

“I don’t believe any community should havea certain level of cellphone coverage shoveddown its throat. Ultimately if the residents ofa community want to have inferior cellphonecoverage because of the possible health effectsand the esthetic effects and the rest, they shouldbe able to do so,” Cameron said.

THE popular ride shareprogram car2go is receivingpositive feedback followingits expansion into the City ofNorth Vancouver.

Jeremy Dyson, a North Vancouverresident, has been using car2go for acouple of years and is enjoying havingthem on the North Shore. He saidthe small cars are a novelty to driveand come in handy for his freelancephotography work.

“It’s a real coup for North Van topull this off as the first outer region topick up car2go,” said Dyson. “I havefriends in Burnaby who are certainlyjealous.”

The company added 50 carsto their already large fleet, withVancouver currently boastingapproximately 400 cars and around

15,000 members.Katie Stafford, communications

manager of car2go North America,said there was interest expressed inthe program from both the city andcommuters, prompting the companyto expand onto the North Shoreabout six months ago.

“We had a lot of demand frompeople of North Vancouver and alsopeople from the City of Vancouverwho travel back and forth and inbetween,” said Stafford. “We thoughtit would be a great opportunity forus to expand our services beyond justthe central core of Vancouver.”

The cars are operated through amembership program in which peoplereceive a card that acts as an access keyto each car.

“It actually gives you access to all400 cars in Vancouver as well as allof the cars within Canada,” includingCalgary and Toronto, said Stafford.

There is no membership fee.Instead users pay 38 cents per minuteon a plan similar to a pay-as-you-go. Fees are charged through themembership card from the timecustomers get into the car until theyreach their destination. There is nocharge for gas or parking.

Car2go cars can be found eitheron the street, or through the finderon the company’s website.

“Themostpopularway thatpeoplefind cars is through the smart phoneapp,” said Stafford. Both the websiteand the app will not only show wherethe closest car is located, but allow aperson to reserve the car in advance,setting the car in lockdown for 30minutes.

The point of the service is to keepthe cars moving so that you reducethe number of cars that are parkedon the street, said Stafford. She saidit also encourages people to use thecars specifically for quick trips.

For Dyson, the service came inparticularly useful when he went tothe recent jazz festival.

“We took it down and took it back,didn’t have to worry about parking

or anything,” he said, explaining thefestival had a drop zone for the cars.

The company site also shows carcleanliness, possible damage and fuellevels.

Members unlock the carsby swiping their card across thewindshield reader. Once inside, atouch screen prompts the user fortheir four-digit pin, unlocking thekey to the ignition.

ALYSSE Leite-Rogers, a Lynn Valley mother of three boys, feltoverwhelmingly blessed.

Back in 2006, she caught an episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show that tackleda topic she was unfamiliar with: fistula, a devastating medical condition affectinghundreds of thousands of women around the world.

According to the Fistula Foundation, a San Jose, Calif.-based non-profitorganization that raises awareness of and funding for fistula treatment, as well as

prevention and educational programs internationally, obstetric fistula is a childbirthinjury common in countries where women give birth without medical assistance.Due to advances in health care as well as the use of C-sections to relieve obstructedlabour, fistula was largely eliminated in North America in the late 19th century.A fistula is essentially a hole created internally between the birth passage and therectum or bladder, leading to incontinence. The injury occurs during childbirth, theresult of contractions and the pushing of a baby — which often does not survive.

Another common cause of fistula is sexual violence endured by women, throughrape or internal violation with implements including wood, bayonets or rifles.

Change maker


LYNN Valley resident Alysse Leite-Rogers trains for her upcoming ascent of Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania, Africa, as a means of raisingenough funds to pay for 10 women around the world to undergo life-altering surgery to treat obstetric fistula, a devastating injury that canoccur during childbirth to women without access to medical care.

I suffer from fatigue and I need toreach for caffeine to stay alert. Can

Naturopathic Medicine help?

Fatigue can have many causes – the keyto regaining your energy is to address the

cause.When we reach for caffeine and sugaryfoods, the instant energy we feel also causesa release of stress hormones. This can lead topoor sleep and weight gain, and we continueto feel tired. Do you feel easily overwhelmedand are dizzy when you stand up? You maybe suffering from adrenal fatigue. Continuousstress or shift work can deplete our adrenalglands and leave us exhausted. Low iron canalso be culprit, as can low thyroid hormone.Identifying the cause can lead to long termrelief from fatigue.

Marine Drive Naturopathic Clinic offerssuccessful treatments for fatigue, includingvitamin IV therapy. A simple cortisol test orthyroid panel can determine the cause ofthe fatigue and ensure safe and effectivetreatment.

Funds to support surgeriesThese women, if they

survive the injury at all, dueto their resulting foul smelland inability to have morechildren, are at times rejectedby their partners, familiesand communities as a whole,leading to isolation, accordingto the foundation.

“It’s almost like being aleper,” says Leite-Rogers, 46.

“They spend the rest oftheir lives alone in this state ofshame. It’s really quite awful,”she adds.

Continuing to watchthe Oprah episode, Leite-Rogers experienced what she

describes as a “moment ofabsolute gratitude,” realizingshe experienced an obstructedlabour with her first child.With access to health care, sheunderwent an emergency C-section that saved both her lifeandthatofher son,Noah,who’snow 16. “It’s not somethingthat we even think of here. . . .We think of childbirth as such agreat, wonderful thing becauseof the medical attention thatwe have,” she says.

“Aswomen,we’re incrediblyprivileged to live where we doand I think with privilege comesresponsibility,” she adds.

Interested in offeringsupport to those affected byfistula, Leite-Rogers has longmade donations to the FistulaFoundation in support of fistulatreatment, a surgical procedurecosting $450 per woman. “Ihave supported them in smallways but I’ve always felt Iwanted to do something a littlebit bigger,” she says.

Calling her initiativeClimbing For Fistula, Leite-Rogers, a local Realtor, hascommitted to raising enoughfunds to allow for 10 women

to undergo the life-alteringsurgery through the foundationand plans to climb Tanzania’sMount Kilimanjaro, an eight-day journey. She is set to leavethe North Shore Aug. 15.

“I’m not a mountainclimber, so this is my firstclimb,” she says. “I hike andrun and I’m active, but I’venever done anything thatchallenges me in this way. I’vealways had a desire to go toAfrica, and I thought, well,this is a perfect opportunity todo something while travellingin a country. I always feel thatit’s important to do somethingfor that country that you visitsomehow.”

The $450 covers the surgeryas well as post-operative careand transportation costs as wellas a new dress that, as a whole,are intended to give the women“a complete new lease on life,”says Leite-Rogers.

IF Miguel Torres Jr.was American he’d beMiguel Torres V orsomething like that.

But he’s very definitelySpanish, and proud toannounce that his son is alsonamed, well, you guessed it,Miguel.

The fifth generationTorres, recently appointedgeneral manager of Spain’spioneering winery, droppedby Vancouver this weekto pour a few wines fromTorres’ Spanish and Chileanwineries.

Prior to taking up hiscurrent duties, Torres ranthe Chilean operation. It’sno surprise since he’s veryfamiliar with the new worldregion where his companywas one of the first outsiders(in 1979) to make significantinvestments in the wineindustry.

Even though some of thewines poured were madein different corners of theworld, a common themeemerged that underscoredTorres’ decidedly modern

house style and well-earnedreputation for makingconsumer friendly wines.

Torres has operations inmost of Spain and Chile’sprominent regions, as well asin Sonoma County, Calif.

In recent years, thecompany has also expandedits Spanish vineyards wellbeyond its traditional basein Penedes and Catalonia.On this visit Torres told methat the company is workingout of an existing facility inGalicia’s Rias Baixas and willsoon be producing Albariño,which is exciting newsindeed.

Here’s a few value dropsto watch for:■ Vina Esmerelda 2011

This long-standingrefreshing summer drop is aperfumed off-dry and floral

blend of Gewürztraminerand Moscatel. Enjoy it (wellchilled) as the perfect patiosipper or pair it with lightlyspiced Asian plates. It’s acrowd pleaser that also doesnicely as a summertimereception wine (BCLSSpecialty, $14.99 88 points).■ Santa Digna ReservaCarmenere 2011

One of the better,more commercially styledofferings of Carmenerearound that adds up to asolid introduction for anyonenot familiar with the variety.Medium-bodied red withmore complexity than youmight expect for the money;cherry and black fruit on topwith some earthy spicy noteson the palate wrapped ineasy tannins. Value priced atBCLS $17.99, 89 points.■ Celeste Crianza 2010

Here’s solid proof as towhy we should pay moreattention to Tempranilloand Ribero de Duero inparticular. Black fruit andsome peppery notes on thenose, fruity and plush in themouth, blackberry, cassisand more, with definiteoak, good length and firmtannins. Let it open in theglass and it will reward evenmore. Cries out for seriousbarbecue (BCLS $24.99, 91points).

• • •Belly’s BestArgiolas CostamolinoVermentino 2011

Yes, it’s a mouthful,and so is the wine: TerrificVermentino from Sardinia.Distinctive pale yellow-greenin the glass with floral andcitrus hints on the nosebefore a mineral-tinged,citrus-fruity but zesty andbroad palate with a solidfinish. A truly versatile foodwine that works well witheverything from white fishwith lemon butter to saladswith a touch of vinaigrette,or sipped on its own.Just remember “ArgiolasVermentino” (BCLS $19.99,90 points).

Being on the fringe makes this fringe big

photo John Masters/Meridian Writers’ Group

CHUCKMcEwan, executive producer of the WinnipegFringe Theatre Festival, stands amid a forest ofposters for fringe shows. More than 80,000 peopleare expected to see performances by 150 companiesduring the festival’s annual 12-day run.

John MastersMeridian Writers’ Group

“PEOPLE would thinkthat Toronto, Vancouverand Montreal wouldhave the largest fringefestivals,” says ChuckMcEwan. “But in thoseplaces you have lots ofcompetition.”

McEwan, executiveproducer of the WinnipegFringe Theatre Festival, isexplaining why his festival,along with the fringe inEdmonton, are the two largestin Canada and among thebiggest, after the original fringein Edinburgh, in the world.Size is one reason: in this case,a little smaller is a lot better.

Also, “we have long wintershere. You want to go out andenjoy your summers.” Thefringe is as much a social eventas a cultural one.

The festival celebrated its25th anniversary in 2012. Thatmakes it five years youngerthan Edmonton’s fringe,North America’s oldest, butthese days the two run neckand neck: each attracts 80,000to 90,000 patrons to see about150 companies perform at twodozen venues over 12 days.Winnipeg’s is in mid-July;Edmonton’s in mid-August.

The companies comefrom all over. In Winnipeg,half of them are Manitoba-based, 30 per cent are fromthe rest of Canada and theremainder international — acategory dominated by actsfrom Britain, Australia and theUnited States, but which mayalso include artists originatingin Asia, Africa or Europe. Theirshows could be anything fromShakespeare to Sam Shepard,from an intense, one-womanconfessional to a two-manhour of slapstick.

Part of the fun of a fringeis that, as the audience, you’reoften unsure if you’re standingin line to see a frog or a prince.McEwan and his team don’tselect based on their perceptionof a show’s artistic merit:companies are allotted spacefirst-come, first-served.

The 12 official performancespaces range from the stageof the century-old PantagesTheatre to the well-air-conditioned auditorium ofthe planetarium. There areanother dozen bring-your-

own-venues — anythingfrom a bookstore to a bar— where a company canmake its own arrangements.They’re included in thefestival’s program, and there’sno shortage of takers, saysMcEwan.

McEwan figures a typicalfringe company makes about$3,000. “It’s not about themoney,” he says, “it’s aboutgiving artists the chance to doa show.”

A cool dog is a safe dog

THE warm weather isdefinitely hard on ourdogs.

They have a terriblyinefficient cooling system andare covered in fur. This makesfor some hot dogs in this hotweather. Zumi, my Germanshepherd, is affected the mostby the high temperatures.

With her thick, blackdouble coat she can’t seem tokeep herself cool. Even Piper,my pointer, with his shortcoat is seeking the cool tilesof the kitchen floor. And poorRaider just doesn’t know whatto make of this weather. Herestlessly moves from the shade

on the back deck to the insideof the house and back again,just trying to find a cool placewith a breeze.

Even though the hotweather is challenging forour dogs, we can certainlydo a few things to help themstay comfortable, and evenrefreshed, during this currentheat wave.

First and foremost, don’texercise your dog in themiddle of the day. A dog outon his regular routine walkbetween the hours of 11 a.m.and 4 p.m. is much moresusceptible to heat strokeand heat exhaustion. Also,walking a dog on the sidewalkor roadside in the blazing sunleaves the pads of their feetvulnerable to blisters due tothe heat of the pavement. Seekout shaded areas to walk yourdog, bring water for your dogand, if you can walk your dog abit earlier in the cool morningor later in the evening whentemperatures have dropped,they will certainly appreciate it.

If your home is not coolor air-conditioned, provideyour dog with open airflow ofsome sort. Moving air tends tobe a few degrees cooler than

stagnant air. This allows yourdog to breathe in cool air,assisting in the cooling process.Placing an oscillating fan in theroom can do this.

Providing fresh cooldrinking water is also veryimportant. Dogs drink a lotin hot weather for a numberof reasons. First, their pantingtends to dehydrate them.Secondly, the cold water intheir bellies helps keep themcool. A good suggestion is tofreeze a water-filled yogurtcontainer or Ziploc baggie,then place the large ice block(without the plastic) in thedog’s water bowl. The largeblock of ice melts slower thanice cubes and keeps the watercooler longer. Avoid feedingyour dog ice cubes. If it chewson the cube the ice may crack atooth, or the dog may swallowthe cube whole, possiblychoking. Even if it swallowsthe ice safely, the cold cubeagainst its stomach lining maycause the dog to vomit. Icedwater is best.

Also, if possible, feed yourdog later in the day. Havinga full stomach during themidday heat can make it morechallenging to keep cool.

Hosing down your dogwith cool water before or aftera walk is another great way tohelp it stay cool, since dogs donot sweat except for their feetand nose. As air passes overtheir wet bodies it helps keepthem cool, acting like sweat.

Then there are our localwaterways, which do notinclude kids’ waterparks— those are off limits to dogs!As long as the rivers are notrunning fast and high, takingyour dog for a dip in the riveris a fun way to cool off. Youmay even be able to join themif you are brave enough. Justbe advised that even if thewater levels are low, the wateris still very cold. Being coveredin fur, your dog may be finejumping in the cold riverwater, but you might get ahypothermic blast!

Summer is a great time toenjoy your dog but rememberthey have a very inefficientcooling system so keep themsafe by keeping them cool.

Checklist helps people respond to hot dogsWHAT should you do if you seea dog locked in a parked car on asweltering summer’s day?

North Vancouver-based DogsafeCanine First Aid has launched a newresource to help residents decide what

action to take. The Dog in Hot CarResponder Checklist includes a fill-in-the-blanks checklist starting with assessing thedog to attempts to locate owner to callingpolice to entering a vehicle with force.

“Adrenaline and emotions are highwhen responding to a canine first aid

situation, especially dogs in hot cars,” saysDogsafe creator Michelle Sevigny. “Ourresponder checklist provides detailedguidance so people can get calm and makethe best choices to help the dog.”

North Vancouver DJ spins a success story


ORENE Askew, a.k.a. DJ O Show, hopes to be apositive role model for aboriginal youth.

Christine [email protected]

IT’S one of thoseover-asked icebreakerquestions everyone hasmused on at some point:if your house was on fireand you could only saveone thing, what wouldit be?

For Orene Askew, thequestion is not hypothetical.Last November, the local

DJ returned home to theSquamish Nation’s MissionReserve after a late-night gigdowntown. While she wassleeping, her neighbour’s homecaught on fire and the blazequickly spread.

“I woke up to smoke andflames not knowing what todo,” Askew recalls. Withoutthinking, she scooped up herDJ equipment and ran outside,escaping uninjured.

“Instinct took overand that’s the only thing Igrabbed,” she said, explaining

the gear is not only monetarilyvaluable, it also represents herentire livelihood.

This August will mark oneyear since Askew, 30, launchedher own DJ business. She spinsR&B, hip-hop and crowdfavourites at weddings, partiesand nightclubs under the stagename DJ O Show and so farbusiness is booming, she says.

“Since I started people havejust been hearing about me andhiring me.”

Her entrepreneurialendeavour was made possible,

in part, by business grants fromthe Squamish Nation Trust.Askew received $7,000 last yearand another $5,000 this year.

“I have a really good niche.There’s not a lot of femaleDJs out there,” she says whenasked what made her grantapplications stand out.

Askew also participated inthe BC Ministry of AboriginalRelations and Reconciliationand Service Canada’sAboriginal Best Program, abusiness and entrepreneurshipskills training series for which

she is now a spokesperson.A graduate of BCIT’s

broadcast radio program,Askew has worked at aBellevue, Wash. radio station,Vancouver’s The Beat 94.5,and Vancouver Co-op Radiowhere she hosted a programfeaturing Squamish languagelessons. She went on to takecourses at the School of Remixand now teaches at the DJeducation facility. She has alsoled DJ workshops for teens onthe North Shore.

When she’s not spinningor teaching, Askew can befound travelling the countryas a motivational speakerfor aboriginal youth. Thismonth alone she has speaking

engagements lined up inKeremeos, B.C. and Ouje-Bougoumou, Que. where shehopes to empower teens tofollow their dreams.

“You can do anything youwant, you’ve just got to stay inschool and be honest, be loyal,have integrity,” she says.

North Shore residentscan find Askew behind theturntable once a month at MistUltra Bar in West Vancouver.She also has a regular gig atSpeakeasy downtown andwill be spinning atop theReconciliation Canada float inthe Vancouver Pride ParadeAug. 4.

THEY may want to addstrawberries and creamto the menu at WestVancouver’s HollyburnCountry Club to keepup with the impressiveWimbledon flavour that willbe on display starting nextweekend at the $200,000Odlum Brown VanOpen protennis tournament.

Organizers released the playerlists last week and a pair of proscoming off strong showings in JollyOld England are the headliners.

On the men’s side Lukasz Kubotof Poland, ranked No. 63 in theworld, is coming off an appearance inthe Wimbledon quarterfinals wherehe faced countryman and Davis Cupteammate Jerzy Janowicz. The twowere battling to become the firstPolish player ever to reach a GrandSlam semifinal and it was Janowiczwho came out on top in three sets.

Kubot’s slick net game was notenough to keep up with Janowicz’sbig serve but the match might bebest remembered for the post-gamehug. The two longtime friendsembraced for more than 20 secondsand then exchanged shirts like acouple of soccer players.

This will be the first time thata player coming off a Wimbledonquarterfinal singles appearance willplay at the VanOpen in the sameseason, and organizers couldn’t behappier about it.

“We didn’t call him, he calledus,” said tournament director RyanClark. “It’s exciting to think thatVancouver gets talked about at thatlevel around the world now.”

Barring any last-minute adds, Kubot will be thetournament’s top seed. Right behind him will beRussia’s Evgeny Donskoy, an up-and-comer who wasranked No. 199 in the world one year ago and hasmoved all the way up to his current spot at No. 66.Other notable names include Germany’s BenjaminBecker, who’s claim to fame is that he beat AndreAgassi in the famous American’s last ever pro match,

and Belgium’s Olivier Rochus, one of the tour’sshortest players at five-foot-six.

“My favourite player on the tour,” said Clark witha laugh. “Most tennis players are probably six-three,six-four. He’s super quick, unbelievably talented. . .. I like that type of style. When you see a guy who’splaying against guys who are much, much taller thanhim and he’s running around at an unbelievablyquick speed, it’s really interesting to watch that

contrast of styles.”British Columbia native Vasek Pospisil will also be

back on the Hollyburn courts. The 23-year-old likelywon a lot of fans in these parts for his role in helpingCanada defeat Italy in a Davis Cup quarterfinal tieplayed at UBC in April. Pospisil lost a five-set thrillerin singles on Day 1 but bounced back on Day 2 to

team up with Daniel Nestor for a crucial doubles win for TeamCanada. He’s currently ranked No. 89 in the world after reachingthe second round at Wimbledon.

“I think it’ll be a very vocal crowd for him when he plays, alot of red and white out there,” said Clark.

On the women’s side the Wimbledon connection continues.No. 1 seed Su-Wei Hsieh of Taiwan won the Wimbledon doubles

title this year with partner Peng Shuai of China. Hsieh is rankedNo. 42 in the world in singles.

Another Asian player currently slots in as the No. 2 seedand it’s a player with quite a back story. Japan’s Kimiko Date-Krumm reached a personal best ranking of No. 4 in the worldback in 1995. To put that in perspective, North Vancouver tennisphenom Filip Peliwo was one year old at that time. Date-Krummthen retired in 1996. After 12 years away from the professionalgame she returned in 2008 and now, as a 42-year-old, is ranked

No. 63 in the world.Clark said the tournament

is gaining a good reputationaround the world, which hashelped bump up the caliber ofthe field.

“If you go back a bunch ofyears it was a lot of Canadianand U.S. players,” he said.“Now what you’re seeing isnot only a huge influx fromAsia, but you’re seeing a lot ofEuropean players. . . . We haveplayers now that could playanywhere in the world andchoose to come here. They’repassing up million dollartournaments to come here.”

The tournament beginswith qualifying rounds, freeto the public, July 27-28.Regular play begins Monday,July 9 with finals scheduled forSaturday, Aug. 3 and Sunday,Aug. 4.

“If you’re a sports fan,it’s hard to beat this typeof intimacy and this level ofsport,” said Clark. “You cancome out and watch matchesall day and night, men’s,women’s — professionals fromaround the world up close andpersonal.”

OBITUARIES

FUNERAL SERVICES

SIMPSON, MARGARET RUTH

JULY 04, 2013

On July 4th, just two months

short of her 104th birthday,

Ruth our dear Mother, Mother−

in−Law, Grandmother, Great

Grandmother, Aunt & friend

slipped away. We all take

comfort in knowing she died

peacefully in the presence of

family & friends. She will be

deeply missed by her son Ross

(Hilliary) of North Vancouver,

daughter Patricia Mostovich

(Michael) of Gibsons & their

families. Ruth was predeceased

by her beloved husband

Gordon, step−son Peter,

parents Fred & Mattie Ross and

her sisters Helen & Louise. She

was born in Kinross on Prince

Edward Island and in 1918 the

family moved to Vancouver’s

West End. She married Gordon

in 1935 and they moved to

West Vancouver. Ruth loved

West Vancouver and until her

passing had lived there for over

70 years. She spent many

happy hours in her garden on

Sentinel Hill, walking on the

seawall and helping friend &

family. The family wishes to

extend their deep gratitude to

the staff at Capilano Care

Centre for the compassionate

and loving care they provided

to Ruth. We are grateful for the

dignity and respect she was

shown during the 14 years she

lived there. No service by

request. A gathering will be held

at a future date to celebrate

Ruth’s life. She will always have

a place in our hearts.
