Temporary closure after suspicious blaze breaks out amidst items donated after-hours

Thrift store fire hampers Superfluity

Summer Olympics bronze for South Surrey-White Rock competitors

Peninsula presence for 3 of 18 Canadian medals

Alex BrowneStaff Reporter

Bargain hunters, keen thrifters and other regulars for whom the Peace Arch Hospital Auxiliary’s Superflu-ity Shop has become a way of life were in for a shock last week.

A fire that broke out early Thurs-day morning has forced the indefi-

nite closure of the popular thrift store, at 15163 Prospect Ave.

The good news, manager Patricia Johnston told Peace Arch News, is that White Rock firefighters caught the blaze – which appears to have started among unsolicited donated items left in the back lane – before it could spread from the back wall

and a portion of the roof.The bad news is the store will

have to remain closed while res-toration contractors inspect the premises and assess the damage.

“They sound optimistic, so I’m hoping it’ll be open again soon,” Johnston said.

White Rock Fire Chief Phil

Lemire said alert residents called in around 3:15 a.m., after noticing a glow from the lane reflected in surrounding windows.

Firefighters arrived to find flames had breached the back wall and sof-fit (external roof ceiling) and were into the roof ’s truss space, he said.

“That was a little bit tense, but

fortunately they prevented it getting any further,” Lemire said. “They did a good job – we had three units on the scene and a good swift response went a long way to minimizing the extent of the damage.”

He said the cause of the fire is “undetermined but suspicious in

The 2012 Summer Olympics came to an end Sunday in London, and though Canada failed in its goal to finish among the top 12 coun-tries in total medals – instead placing 13th – it was, without question, the most successful Games for the Semiahmoo Peninsula.

Three of Canada’s 18 total medals were won by those with South Surrey and White Rock connections, led by Christine Girard,

who in the first week of Olympic competi-tion won bronze in the 63-kg division of women’s weightlifting. For Girard, a Quebec native who has lived in White Rock for the last four years, the podium finish was redemption for the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, where she finished fourth – just three kilograms away from a bronze medal.

In Week 2, Canada’s national women’s soc-cer team captured the bronze medal with a narrow 1-0 victory over France. The team is

coached by Peninsula resident John Herd-man, with former Peace Arch Soccer presi-dent Maeve Glass as equipment manager.

The bronze was Canada’s first medal in a Summer Olympic team sport since 1936. It would have been silver or gold, had they not lost a controversial 4-3 game to the U.S. in semifinals. Owing in large part to a hard-luck loss to the No. 1-ranked U.S. squad – which went on to win the gold medal over Japan – members of the Canadian team became the

stars of the Games for home-country fans. “You can’t be great unless you achieve

great things and that medal is a great thing,” Herdman said. “We know that we’ve inspired some youngsters and, we hope… a whole stream of talented players.”

And on Friday, marathon swimmer Richard Weinberger – a former Pacific Sea Wolves Swim Club member – finished third in the men’s 10-km open-water event in Hyde Park.

Charges of possessing stolen property and trafficking in stolen-identity documents have been laid against a South Surrey man after police seized several bicycles from a house in the 1700-block of 154 Street.

According to a police statement issued Thursday, David Goldstein was arrested Aug. 2 around 4 p.m. after Surrey RCMP officers went to “a residence known for property crime” to arrest him on an out-standing warrant.

Police said there was a brief foot chase that ended with the arrest of Goldstein and the recovery of “numerous pieces of stolen identification.”

Police said the investigation led them to a number of possibly stolen bikes on the 154 Street property that were being advertised for sale online on Craigslist.

Two persons of interest have been identi-fied in the stolen-bicycle case, the RCMP said, but so far, no arrests have been made.

Police are trying to locate the owners of the recovered bicycles.

Goldstein remains in custody and is sched-uled to appear before a judge in Surrey Pro-vincial Court on Tuesday, Aug. 14.

A rash of recent home robberies in South Surrey during the summer has sparked a warning from the RCMP.

Since warmer weather has hit the region, Surrey Mounties have had reports of several thefts from homes, particularly in South Surrey, largely because people are leaving doors and windows open.

Common methods of entry to homes dur-ing the summer is through doors, windows and garages.

“It’s obviously concerning to us, and we think it’s preventable,” said RCMP Sgt. Drew

Grainger. “We just need to raise awareness of citizens in the area to be mindful that these are crimes of opportunity for would-be thieves who like to come into your house and steal your stuff.”

Surrey RCMP police officers and Com-munity Safety Officers will be conducting patrols in local neighbourhoods to remind homeowners about these tips and to discuss further safety steps with them.

Purse stolen from car trunk

ID theftfollows break-inDan FergusonStaff reporter

When the insurance broker told Charlene Sierakowski she would have to pay a $230 fine before she could insure her car, she couldn’t believe it.

She says it was for an offence she didn’t commit, consuming liquor in a public place, on a night when she was working,

“I was so shocked.”That was the moment Sierakowski, a Lan-

gley resident, discovered she wasn’t done dealing with the theft of her purse during a visit to Crescent Beach earlier this year.

On March 6, the 19-year-old left her purse in the trunk of her grandfather’s car. She had borrowed it to take her dogs for a walk, while her car was off the road to have some mechanical work done.

Sierakowski returned from her visit to the dog park to discover someone got into the locked car trunk and stole her purse by rip-ping open the back seat.

Sierakowski immediately reported the theft to police and set about replacing her ID.

She wrote a letter to Peace Arch News that appeared in the March 15 edition of the newspaper to warn readers about the theft.

Sierakowski thought the matter had been dealt with until she went to insure her car July 25. That was when she was told that a Surrey Mountie wrote up someone for drinking in a public place almost two months earlier.

According to the violation ticket, the inci-dent occurred at 6:55 p.m. on May 2 near 70A Avenue and 137A Street.

Sierakowski says she was at work when the ticket was issued, and she can prove it.

The person who used Sierakowski’s drivers’ licence signed the ticket, but the signature is nothing like the one on the licence.

They simply scrawled the initials “C.S.” where the “alleged offender’s signature” is supposed to go on the ticket.

Sierakowski notes she’s been signing her full name since she was old enough to spell it.

Now, Sierakowski has to fill out a detailed ICBC Impersonation Package to get the ticket lifted and insure her sporty red Chevy Cavalier coupe.

The package, including any evidence to

support her claim that she was working on the day of the incident, has to go to the issu-ing officer who wrote the ticket, who will decide whether to accept or deny the claim.

Sierakowski, a 6’2” occasional model, is reasonably optimistic the person who used her licence doesn’t look much like her.

She says the police have assured her that her ID documents have now been flagged as sto-len, and anyone who tries to use them to fool a police officer will be arrested and charged.

But the thief is still out there with her ID, and that has Sierakowski concerned.

She is leaving for China on Sept. 4 for a three-week modeling assignment, and if her name is linked again to something criminal, she’s worried it could interfere with her trip.

And she vows she won’t leave her purse unattended again.

“Never ever,” she says. “It never leaves my side.”ICBC spokesperson Mark Jan Vrem says

that if any customers believe they have been victims of driver impersonation, they can file a claim by visiting an ICBC point of ser-vice or by calling 604-661-2800.

The City of Surrey has wrapped up its investigation into a July 30 gas leak that forced the evacuation of businesses and residences near 24 Avenue and 160 Street.

Meanwhile, gas-distribution com-pany FortisBC issued a statement Thursday outlining their response to the emergency and noting that provincial regulations – if followed – would prevent 99 per cent of third-party damage to their pipe-lines (see sidebar).

Surrey’s preliminary draft of the report was prepared by city occu-pational health and safety manager Sam Chauhan.

The Chauhan report will be reviewed internally before it goes to WorkSafeBC, the provincial agency in charge of workplace safety.

Details of the findings won’t be disclosed until it has been reviewed by the agency.

The Workers Compensation Act requires an employer to prepare an “incident investigation report” when an accident involves a “major release of a hazardous substance,” even if no one was injured.

The act says the report should identify any “unsafe conditions, acts or procedures which contributed” and propose “corrective actions to prevent similar incidents.”

The report was expected to address whether there was an error by a city crew or if the plans showing the line location were incorrect.

The crew, said to be highly expe-rienced, was digging up an unused six-inch water line when they acci-dentally knocked a hole in the

four-inch gas line.The crew had checked with the

BC One Call database before they started digging to get the location of the gas line.

Around 12:30 p.m. the bucket of their backhoe excavator hit the line, sending a torrent of natural gas into the air.

The immediate area around the break was ordered evacuated by police and fire, including Peace Arch News offices, and the evacu-

ation was eventually expanded to include most of the businesses in the 50-acre Grandview Corners shopping district on both sides of 24 Avenue, as well as 35 to 40 residential homes bordering the business area.

The leak was closed shortly after 3 p.m. but workers and residents were not allowed to return until crews checked for lingering pock-ets of gas.

There were no injuries.

City of Surrey report to be reviewed by WorkSafe BC

Abiding by rules ‘would prevent 99% of leaks’

Sarah Massah photoFortisBC responds to July 30 leak.

We understand that damage to our system, such as the third-party damage that occurred in South Surrey on July 30, 2012, can cause concern for public safety, as well as affect first responders and our customers…

When FortisBC responds to a pipeline damage call, our first priority is to make the area safe. In this instance, a large safety perimeter was established with the help of the RCMP and the fire department. We also removed all potential ignition sources, including working with BC Hydro to cut power to the area.

Part of this response also included allowing the natural gas to vent freely to the atmosphere, because this is often the safest solution and impacts the fewest number of customers until we can inspect the damage and determine the best way to stop the leak.

To stop the leak, our crews had to shut three valves, dig two remote holes away from the damage, isolate the section of pipe impacted; repair the damaged section, and then remove the isolation devices to get the gas flowing again. The crew worked safely and efficiently following WorkSafeBC guidelines.

Once the gas was under control and repairs complete, our crews then went door-to-door to relight our customers’ gas appliances.

As mentioned earlier, FortisBC takes an active role in preventing the risk from third-party damage…

And what we learned is that 99 per cent of incidents are preventable by obtaining mapping and hand digging as laid out by provincial regulations.

origin” – given that it appears to have started among donated goods left at the rear of the store.

“That’s not to say it couldn’t have been caused by a cigarette

d i s c a r d e d by someone going through the stuff.”

Lemire’s ini-tial assessment was that the concrete two-storey building had received minimal dam-age and a “a bit of light smoke

damage inside.”Johnston said the fire highlights

a problem common to all thrift stores – people leaving unsolic-ited donations at rear doors after hours when the items can’t be

taken in and stored safely.“We can’t operate without dona-

tions, but we do ask that peo-ple leave them during business hours… If you do leave dona-tions after hours, they are subject to theft or problems like this.

“It’s a real shame - because it’s been the auxiliary’s big money-

maker for years. Our auxiliary has made over $10 million since 1948 and it’s enabled the hospital to buy a lot of equipment.”

The closure also has an impact on regular Superfluity shoppers, who are like family, she said.

Lemire noted he observed many of the regular clientele arriving when damage assessment was being done later on Thursday.

“The store certainly has quite the following,” he said.

Linda Kelly, of South Surrey, is among many who were turned away by the ‘closed’ sign on the door on Thursday. She was relieved to hear the next day that damage was not extensive.

“I’m a regular shopper at Super-fluity,” she said. “I always like to support it whenever I can because it makes such a big dif-ference in the community – and it’s a real community in itself.”

SURREY’S STREET TREES

Trees are thirsty too!Summer is here; the weather is warm; and the trees on your street and in your yard need water. Like us, trees need long refreshing drinks of water to stay healthy.

Here’s what you can do to help your neighbourhood street trees and the trees in your yard this summer:

1. Water the trees twice a week.2. Water thoroughly at the base of the trees for 15 minutes.3. Water during the cooler parts of the day (early morning and dusk) and when it

isn’t raining.4. Water slowly so that the water has time to soak into the dry soil and reach the

roots, instead of pooling on the surface.

Nearly seven years after a young mother was murdered in Sur-rey, a pair of Vancouver police officers face an investigation into allegations that they failed to warn Tasha Rossette her life may have been in danger.

According to the B.C. Supreme Court ruling this week, on Nov. 17, 2005, Const. Craig Bent-ley was told by a confi-dential source that Ros-sette’s boyfriend planned to murder her. Bentley passed the information to his Integrated Gang Task Force supervisor, Staff Sgt. John Grywinski, but the pair decided not to pass the information on to Rossette immediately, instead investigating the matter further.

Five days later, Bentley went to Rossette’s home in Newton and found it surrounded by police tape. She had been murdered.

The murder tip given to. Bent-ley and allegations against him and Grywinski only came to light last week after a judge dismissed their attempt to quash a review of their conduct by the Office of the Police Complaints Commis-sioner (OPPC).

In her Aug. 7 ruling, Justice Laura Gerow said the investi-

gation should proceed, and she reprimanded the police officers for taking so long to file their petition.

It was November 2007 when the Vancouver Police Department

(VPD) began investigat-ing a concern raised by Crown counsel regard-ing evidence given by Bentley during a pre-liminary inquiry.

Less than a year later, Rossette’s mother, Simone, complained that the two officers failed in their duty by not telling Tasha she was at risk of being killed. In 2009, Simone’s complaint was

dismissed by the VPD.The OPPC requested more

information about the mat-ter’s dismissal and ordered the police to revisit the allegations. A year-and-a-half later, the OPPC couldn’t determine whether the allegations had been investigated and, in May 2009, again ordered the VPD to investigate.

After requesting several exten-sions, a November 2010 deadline to review the internal investiga-tion was not met and the OPPC ordered an external investiga-tion.

In their petition to quash the investigation, Bentley and Gry-winski said that because they

were cleared of wrongdoing in the initial internal investigation, the OPPC had no right to order another probe into their conduct as there was no new informa-tion.

Gerow didn’t buy their argu-ment.

“The face of the 2009 order makes it clear that the commis-sioner is ordering an investigation because all the information was not considered,” she writes in her reasons for judgment. “The fact that the petitioners did not com-mence a petition until after the 2010 order for an external inves-tigation was made, and allowed the investigation to proceed for 19 months before commencing a petition, is indicative of the fact that they were well aware of the reason for the 2009 order and were content with it.”

Rossette, a 21-year-old single mother of a three-year-old girl, was stabbed 40 times and her throat was slit. She was 17 weeks pregnant with her second child.

Her boyfriend, Amjad Khan, and his alleged accomplice, Naim Mohammed Saghir, were arrested and charged a year after her death. In 2008, the two were found guilty of first-degree mur-der, but those convictions were overturned on appeal last Sep-tember and a new trial is sched-uled to begin early next year.

FREE HEARING TEST

ONSITEAUDIOLOGIST,RYAN KALEF

“Dedicated to excellence in hearing care.”


B.C. Attorney-General Shirley Bond has asked the province’s chief electoral officer, Keith Archer, to review the

possibility of online voting for both municipal and provincial elections.

This could be potentially good news for those who’ve been wondering when B.C. will get in step with Ontario and Eastern Canada, where more than 40 municipalities already conduct part of their voting through the Internet.

For those of us who still believe in democratic representation, low voter turnout has been a consistent bugbear defeating what would seem to be the very purpose of an election.

In last November’s White Rock municipal race, the percentage of the population that made it to the polls was a depressing 28.7 per cent – down eight per cent from 2008. In Surrey it was only 25 per cent, a meagre one per cent increase over the 2008 figures.

In the 2009 provincial race, voters did better – 60.23 of eligible voters cast a ballot in Surrey-White Rock, 51.26 in Surrey-Cloverdale and 51.48 per cent in Surrey-Panorama – but there is still a wide margin for improvement.

If the relative ease of online voting offers any prospect of reducing such widespread voter apathy – not to mention neutralizing the intimidation of partisan ‘get out the vote’ tactics on election day – then it is surely worth exploring.

Of course, possible glitches in the process also need to be examined. In this context, it is worth noting that Bond has asked Archer top convene a panel that will explore just how online voting is working in other jurisdictions, and what technological or logistical barriers might need to be overcome.

In the wake of hacking incidents both personal and global, we’ve all become justifiably wary of the security of anything done online, and airtight assurance that votes cannot be compromised must be at the top of anyone’s wish list. It’s interesting that the panel will also examine integrating the planned BC Services card – a combined driver’s license and care card – as a means of verifying voter identification.

There is hope for the future in all of this – even if the findings of the panel will not come in time to change the process for the May 2013 provincial election or the 2014 round of municipal elections.

editorial

Here’s a summer scene being played out all over North America. Family van pulls up

to the corner store to stock up on a few camping essentials: pop, chips, hot dogs, a case of beer and a bottle of vodka.

Not in B.C. you say? It happens every day at rural agency liquor stores around the province. As with many other issues, there is one reality for urban B.C. and another for the rest of us. Selling booze in grocery stores would presumably create anarchy in B.C cities and towns, but villagers and their visitors somehow manage it, just as everyone does across the line in Washington or Alaska.

These rural agency stores are “flyspeck operators,” sniffs an acquaintance who spent his career as a union activist in government liquor stores. Picture dusty old bottles on a rickety shelf, greedy owners and poorly trained clerks more likely to sell to under-age drinkers.

Similar generalizations can be heard about the hundreds of private liquor stores that have popped up around B.C. since they were legalized. And in fact there have been more violations

in private stores, revealed in sting operations run by liquor inspectors. In the fiscal the year that ended March 31, 54 private stores were caught selling

to a minor, for an 84 per cent compliance rate. Only four government stores were caught, a pass rate of 96 per cent. Five rural agency stores were tested, and one flunked.

But here is the telling statistic. In 2010, the government allowed liquor inspectors to employ actual minors to test stores. Previously, they hired people who looked young but were old enough to buy alcohol, As late as 2009, two out of three stores (government or otherwise) sold to them. Problem is, that’s not an

actual offence.Now liquor inspectors send in

undercover teens, and relieve them of the evidence when they are allowed to buy booze. The watchdog now has teeth, and compliance has jumped.

The government glossed over the poorer performance of private stores. But in fairness, three times as many private stores as government ones were targeted in the new inspections, and the gap is narrow. Government stores also have a huge built-in financial advantage in

their wholesale rate, and are generally overstaffed by private-sector standards.

The BC Liberals also moved this spring to make rural agency stores easier to establish. Regulation changes brought the minimum population served from 300 down to 200, and eliminated a vague requirement for a “bona fide community” to exist around the store.

Meanwhile, the big booze story this year is cabinet minister Rich Coleman’s plan to sell B.C.’s warehouse and distribution monopoly to a private contractor. The B.C. Government Employees’ Union has protested, despite assurances that their jobs will continue. B.C.’s burgeoning craft beer industry has looked to Alberta’s all-private model and predicts higher costs.

The BC Liberal government has been on the defensive from the start, with the NDP pointing to the paper trail of lobbyists with an apparent inside track. It’s great politics, but it matters little to consumers in an increasingly competitive but heavily taxed business.

Another new regulation took effect this summer, creating a $525 fine for adults serving minors, on the job, at home or as a bootlegger. Parents who provide booze for their own under-age children are exempted. Previously, penalties applied only to licensed establishments.

If the issue really is public safety and teen binge drinking, the key job for government is to regulate sales effectively. Once that is done, no justification remains for government liquor sales.

State, church ended potlatchEditor: Re: Canoe journey aims to bridge cultures, Aug. 7.

I enjoyed reporter Tracy Holmes’ article on the Pulling Together canoe journey, though I would like to address a mistaken impression.

It’s important to note the RCMP did not ban the potlatch.

It was the federal government, in collusion with the church, who amended the Indian Act in 1884 to make the potlatch illegal.

Ottawa’s goal was assimilation, but aboriginals on the West Coast resisted by using the potlatch as a means of perpetuating their political and cultural systems.

But nothing could dissuade Ottawa and the church from the belief that the potlatch was “the epitome of anti-government pagan depravity.”

Still, First Nations continued their traditional practice, often camouflaging potlatches with Christian ceremonies, or performing speeches and dances publicly, and later privately dispensing gifts.

Initially, Indian Agents were reluctant to interfere with the potlatch, due to a lack of an enforcement mechanism.

It wasn’t until 1921 that spectacular arrests resulted from Dan Cranmer’s Christmas Day potlatch at Alert Bay. Forty-nine native participants were eventually convicted, and 26 were sent to jail in Vancouver.

In addition to criminalizing the potlatch, Ottawa also outlawed the Sundance and the Thirst Dance on the prairie, completing the axis of evil triumvirate.

The police did not create nor inspire this legislation; their job was only to help enforce it.Bob Burgel, Surrey

No fairness in this rulingEditor: Re: Former Mountie Robinson given 12-month conditional sentence, www.peacearchnews.com July 27.

Regarding the conditional sentence for Monty Robinson, the sentence – if you can call it that – is a gross miscarriage of justice.

The defendant’s native status should have carried no weight.

He was not in any poor circumstance like addiction, lack of education, unemployment or being in jail many times, which would have deserved special consideration.

But Robinson was like most other members of the society, having earned a responsible job and even a promotion.

The judge has made an egregious error in judgment.

We are told the concept of fairness applies in making decisions.

There is no fairness in this ruling.The decision must be appealed.

Dave Bains, Surrey

Coverage hurtstheir creativityEditor: Re: Festival of the Arts a success…, www.peacearchnews.com July 24.

I am responding to your photography coverage of our Arnold Mikelson Festival of Arts.

The festival of arts is a non-profit event and takes the Mikelson family and their friends and volunteers six months preparation to bring this event to the public.

We had over 100 artists displaying their art, some with international status, some up-and-coming artists. We strive for the highest quality we can and, according to the comments from the public, we do achieve it.

Of course, I like to include some items for the children to encourage their interest in the art.

Your photographer had an excep-tional selection of artists to choose from, yet he chose a sign and parking attendant. You wonder if he under-stands what an art festival is about.

These artists work very hard to

present their work and any negative coverage affects their creativity.

If your photographer would like to see how to cover an art festival, he can go to our website. The pictures have been taken by my handicapped daughter.Mary Mikelson, Surrey

Hate, racism create gunmenEditor:

I am deeply saddened by the brutal loss of life and injury of members of the Sikh community in Wisconsin.

I feel that this senseless and racist attack at a place of worship is not the act of a madman nor is it a random act of violence – this attack was a well organized and targeted attack by a racist group who sought to target and attack the Sikh community in Wisconsin.

Many people blame slack gun-control laws, but it is my firm belief that by controlling gun violence we will not be able to stop extreme

racist groups from committing attacks against minority groups.

I have lived too long, have seen similar attacks here in B.C. and have heard of other senseless acts of violence motivated by racism across the world. The seeds of ignorance are fertilized by hate and racism, these same seeds burn mosques, synagogues and temples, create gunmen to murder innocent kids in Norway, and now open fire on innocent worshippers in a gurdwara.

The fruits of these seeds of ignorance are bitter, poisonous and deadly. Racists do not care about the differences in faith and practices or whether their victims are women or children but rather actively seek vulnerable targets, like Nirmal Singh Gill who was the victim of an act of racism here in Surrey.

Racists and white supremacists cause fear in the wider community to demonstrate force and power. It would be naïve to think groups like these do not congregate and meet in secret, even locally. They wait in hiding and seek any opportunity to create hatred among people of all colour, religion and ethnicity.

We should not live in fear but must unite to show racists that our communities are happy to live in harmony and have an intercultural understanding of one another.

Education will not help racist groups – the only language they understand is strict law enforcement and appropriate consequences to deter them from criminal and racist acts.

I would like to extend my sympathy and heartfelt condolences to the families of the victims of this tragic incident.Charan Gill, Surrey

Semiahmoo First Nation Councillor Joanne Charles (left) takes a very active role at the Spirit of the Sea Festival.

Editor: Re: Leaders should lead parade, Aug. 9 letters.

I am amused by comments that elected officials should lead parades.

The people who deserve public acknowledgment are Spirit of the Sea Festival director Matt Todd, Semiahmoo First Nation Councillor Joanne Charles and the army of volunteers. Charles played an important organizational role. The Semiahmoo First Nation was a major sponsor of the event including the fireworks, and Charles took special interest in the paddleboard races by providing individual Semiahmoo replica paddles to all winners.

She even took time out of her schedule to race in the

paddleboard event – stopping only to reprimand me for not competing against her.Coun. Larry Robinson, White Rock

It matters not that the mayor lead a parade in this day and age; if it is a private event, let the mayor enter his own float, if he might like to participate.

Police – not the mayor – were out front, as they would have provided public-safety services, with associated costs billed to those hosting such a business event as the Sea Festival. Such an event is great for small businesses on Marine Drive, and politics need not enter into it.Ron Eves, White Rock

Others deserve Sea Fest honours

Grey skies and a threat of rain may have led to paintings and easels being shrouded in plastic for the last day of the 39th annual Arnold Mikelson Festival of the Arts Sunday – but they didn’t dampen the enthusiasm of true art lovers.

There were still plenty who came to view the work of more than 100 artists and artisans on the wooded three-acre grounds of the Mind and Matter Gallery, during the four days of the South Surrey festival, July 14, 15, 21 and 22.

The festival, originally established by late sculptor Arnold Mikelson and

his wife, Mary – and continued by her since he passed away in 1984 – has long been a summertime fixture on the regional art scene, drawing visual artists and craftspeople from all over B.C.

In addition to painters and photog-raphers, others on hand to sell their wares and demonstrate techniques include potters, wood and soapstone carvers, metal art makers, glass blow-ers, batik and fabric art-makers and jewelry creators.

Next big show and sale at the gallery will be the annual Art at Christmas display in November and December.

Surrey began drop-ping off large garbage containers at homes last month, as the city pre-pares to launch its new waste-collection system this fall.

Three garbage bins are being left at each home – one for garbage, another for organics and one for recycling. The city will be deliver-ing 5,000 per day, until all 100,000 homes are stocked.

Surrey residents are being asked to pull the bins away from the curb to their home for now.

The new garbage col-lection system won’t begin until Oct. 1, but the city is beginning a marketing blitz to edu-cate people about how it works.

Starting in the fall, Surrey will start picking up food waste and other organics separately.

A smaller container will be provided to each home for people to sep-arate their food scraps in the kitchen before taking them to the bin.

Organics include food waste, such as fruits and vegetables, meat (including bones), cooking oil and breads, as well as food soiled paper, like tea bags, napkins, paper towels and pizza boxes and yard waste including yard clippings, leaves,

plants and small trim-mings.

The organics will be picked up every week. Because the other loads will be smaller as a result, Surrey will be collecting garbage and recycling every two weeks.

The new pickup

schedule is part of a Metro Vancouver ini-tiative to cut in half the amount of waste head-ing to landfills.

More information is available at www.sur-rey.ca/rethinkwaste or by calling the Waste Collection Hotline at 604-590-7289.

The Surrey Crime Pre-vention Society (SCPS) is realigning its goals to match those of the city.

Karen Reid Sidhu has been recently named as the executive director for the SCPS and said it’s time to take the soci-ety in a new direction.

“We were more focused on crime pre-vention rather than community safety,” Sidhu said.

“So we rebranded all of our programs with the new focus on com-munity safety.”

She said that involves more than just crime prevention, but deals with the community as a whole.

“What we’re doing is public awareness and education, but we’re also doing observation and reporting,” Sidhu said.

“So anything we observe in the commu-nity, we report it.”

When he saw the woman screaming for help, there was no doubt in his mind about what he was going to do.

At about 10 p.m. Thursday, Sha-fiah Sadler, 51, was at the door of her home Thursday strug-gling with some groceries as she attempted to unlock her door.

A young attacker pushed her, grabbed her purse and ran.

Sadler gave chase, calling for help all the way.

To her good fortune – and the bad luck of the perpetrator – kickboxer Parmvir Dosanj was in his van on 75 A Avenue and 120 Street when he saw Sadler calling for help from the middle of the street.

“I saw the male in the black hoodie, and I quickly assumed right away that he had stolen something from her,” the 18-year-old Delta resident said Friday.

Dosanj rolled down the win-dow to his van, yelling at the perpetrator to stop.

When he didn’t, Dosanj got out of the van and gave chase.

It happened fast, he said, add-ing he didn’t have much time to think about possible repercus-sions, like if the attacker was armed.

He eventually caught up to his target behind the Shoppers Drug Mart, put him in a headlock and dropped him to the ground.

That’s when the man started yelling “Let me go, I didn’t do anything.”

Dosanj kept his grip and the man finally gave up the purse, and once again pleaded with his captor to be released.

In about five minutes, the police arrived and arrested a suspect.

The next day, police com-mended Dosanj for his quick and bold action.

“This young man is to be lauded for his courageous and selfless

actions,” said RCMP Sgt. Drew Grainger. “As the police, it is very satisfying to see young people in our community rise to the occa-sion to assist another citizen in need. Although we never con-done this type of behaviour, we commend his efforts that night and for acting so decisively.”

Police are recommending a charge of robbery.

As for Dosanj, he’s looking for work, possibly in the security business, or even policing.

perspectives…on the Semiahmoo Peninsula

Dan FergusonBlack Press

Hank Block was surrounded by family and friends at a

fundraiser for the Parkinson’s Society at the regular Show n’ shine of classic cars at Hayley’s Dodge Sunday afternoon in South Surrey.

The Block family patriarch is battling Parkinson’s disease, and three generations of his family have joined the fight against the incurable neurodegenerative disease, aiming to raise $100,000 for the Parkinson SuperWalk in Surrey on Sept. 9.

The founder of the Block Brothers real estate and development company, the 86-year-old Block has promised to match the fund raised by the “Hike for Hank” team up to $50,000.

In an online message, his wife Laura said her husband wasn’t sure at first that he wanted her asking for money and suggested they just donate to the Parkinson Society Canada (PSC).

Laura won that discussion.“I strongly feel that I need to

do this,” she says.“I am hoping that friends and

family will join me and that we would be a sea of Hike for Hank tee shirts.”

Details about the event can be found at www.parkinsonsuperwalk.ca.

Surrey Food Bank fills position

Co-ordinator appointed

Kuldip K. Ardawa has been appointed as the community partnership co-ordinator at the Surrey Food Bank Society.

Ardawa’s role will be to build partnerships with community stakeholders and to raise awareness in the about the range of services the Surrey Food Bank (SFB) provides to the communities of Surrey and North Delta.

Ardawa joins the food bank with extensive knowledge of the poverty and the challenges in the community. She is well-known and well-respected in the community and has a deep passion and

non-judgemental understanding for those who are living in challenging circumstances.

It’s expected her unique blend of employment and volunteering experience will allow her to continue to empower and build partnerships between business and community based organizations. She is currently a member of the City of Surrey’s Social Planning committee which addresses challenges faced by community based organizations at municipal level. Ardawa was also the first Indo-Canadian woman to be elected president of the Surrey Fraser Heights Rotary Club.

“We are thrilled to have her on board and I’m looking forward to working with her in the community,” said Marilyn Herrmann, SFB executive director.

Twenty-one teams took part in a lawn-bowling benefit Aug.6 at White Rock’s Mann Park Lawn Bowling Club, in support of Canuck Place Children’s Hospice.

The event, which included a pancake breakfast, also saw Surrey-White Rock MLA Gordon Hogg and White Rock Mayor Wayne Baldwin test their bowling skills on the green.

In between games, both Hogg and Baldwin spoke of their experiences with Canuck Place, and its importance to the Lower Mainland community.

Entry into the lawn-bowling event was by donation. In total, bowlers raised $2,125 for the hospice.

Mann Park has raised over $4,000 for Canuck Place in the last two years.

Ironman Mattresses with Celiant® and Cellitex® have been proven in clinical test to reduce pain, increase oxygen levels, and help balance body temperature. Each of these results can have added benefits, including faster healing, increased performance, better quality sleep and improved overall wellness; all of which can help alleviate the symptoms of arthritis and peripheral vascular disease often associated with diabetes.

The key to Celliant® lies in its ability to absorb and store electromagnetic (energy) emissions from the human body and release them where they are reabsorbed into the skin and deep muscle tissue, they act as catalysts for natural, biological processes resulting in enhanced oxygen levels, and more balanced body temperature during sleep, rest or physical activity.

Serving up some historyWalk into Uli’s on any given day and you

may be treated to the smell of Chef Ryan Bissel’s homemade bacon.

The longtime White Rock landmark has undergone a series of changes in the more than 20 years that it’s been a part of the community.

Now, under the guidance of Tyson Blume – son of Uli Blume, the restaurant’s namesake – and Bissel, the restaurant is serving up traditional dishes with a modern twist.

Aside from the food, part of the restaurant’s appeal has to be its colourful history. Mention the name Uli Blume to a longtime Peninsula resident and you’re bound to get a smile in response, along withw a story about the eccentric and affable man who was at the helm of the restaurant from 1985 to 2001.

After the elder Blume sold the restaurant, he became unhappy with what he saw as a decline in quality, prompting him to second-guess his decision.

“He bought it back, but at 65, it wasn’t something he wanted to do anymore. But he was just so upset with the way things had gone. This was his legacy and he saw all this work he had put into it disappear, after years of it being this great spot in White Rock,” Tyson said.

After gaining experience while working at some of Vancouver’s top restaurants, Tyson felt this was the time to start his own project.

He purchased the restaurant from his father and began rebuilding the Uli brand.

With the help of his staff, it didn’t take long to bring the restaurant back to its former glory, with one new addition: Uli’s “famous burger” featuring the smoky bacon Bissel makes from scratch (he also makes pancetta and prosciutto).

“The first year, I would go out to the sandwich

board and I would ask people what they would like. And the answer was the same. People just wanted a burger, and it was the only thing I didn’t have on my menu,” Tyson said.

“So, the next summer I said, let’s add a burger and let’s make it better than anyone else.”

As for that burger, like everything else on the menu, there is a focus on using fresh and local ingredients.

That same philosophy applies to dessert, even for those with dietary restrictions. For example, his gluten-free chocolate quinoa cake.

Quinoa chocolate cakeIngredients:

2 cups cooked quinoa1/3 cup milk4 eggs1 teaspoon vanilla extract3/4 cup and 2 teaspoons melted butter1 and 1/2 cups sugar

1 cup cocoa powder1/2 tablespoon baking powder1/2 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon saltZest of three oranges

Instructions:Preheat oven to 375ºF and grease two 8” rounds

or 12 large muffin cupsIn a food processor, combine milk, eggs and

vanilla, then add quinoa and melted butter.In a separate bowl, combine cocoa, baking

powder, baking soda, salt and sugar.Add dry ingredients to egg mixture and blend.

Stir in zest and place in tin or pan.Bake 40 minutes for 8” rounds or 15 minutes

for muffin tin. Toothpick should come out dry, but chocolatey.

Cool completely and serve.

newsPolice are looking for the driver of a

car that struck a 66-year-old man in Surrey and took off.

At just after 5 p.m. last Tuesday, the senior was walking in the area of 126 Street and 68 Avenue when he was hit.

He was knocked unconscious, woke up some time later and managed to walk to his home nearby.

He suffered several broken bones,

but is expected to make a full recov-ery.

The vehicle involved is believed to be a small black car and may have minor damage to the front end.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) if you wish to remain anonymous.

Canadian women’s squad wins Olympic soccer bronze

Team backs coach’s claimNick GreenizanSports Reporter

After losing a gut-wrenching semifinal that put his team’s Olympic medal hopes in jeopardy, Canadian women’s soccer coach John Herdman said the flag would rise yet.

He was right.On Thursday – just three days removed

from a controversial, extra-time loss to the U.S. that knocked them into the bronze-medal round – Team Canada made good on its coach’s guarantee, edging France 1-0 to secure a place on the podium.

And though Canada looked sluggish at times, and were outplayed for long stretches – the French side hit two posts and a crossbar – the Canadian crew held strong defensively, and the game was scoreless after 90 minutes of regulation time.

Then, in the 92nd minute – with one minute left in added injury time – Canada’s Diana Matheson scored the winning goal.

“It was a hell of a game the other night (against the U.S.), the big question was could they repeat that? Could they get up again? And to be fair, we wobbled for long times,” Herdman, a Semiahmoo Peninsula resident, told CTV after the game.

“You know France, all credit to them, they were outstanding, they were the better team for periods but you got to put the ball in the back of the net and we weren’t going to let them do that today.”

The medal win was Canada’s first in a Summer Olympics team sport since Canada’s men’s basketball team finished on the podium in 1936.

Canada’s women’s soccer team has never medalled in the Olympics before.

The win was a bit of redemption for the national team, which lost a heartbreaking – and controversial – semifinal game to the

South Surrey swimmer Richard Weinberger prepares for the 10-km swim Friday morning.

Richard Weinberger on Olympic podium

Bronze medal swimNick GreenizanSports Reporter

After a grueling swim in the cold waters of Serpentine Lake in London’s Hyde Park, a tired Richard Weinberger – swept up in the hysteria of a historic Olympic performance – still found time for his family Friday.

“I love you, mom!” the 22-year-old South Surrey native yelled, spying his mother, Marina, in the crowd after stepping off the

podium, where just moments before he was awarded a bronze medal in the men’s 10-km open-water swim.

Weinberger – a former Pacific Sea Wolves swimmer who learned to swim in a family pool

in Saudi Arabia where his father, Tony, a commercial pilot, was once stationed – was considered by many to be a medal contender, if not exactly a favourite. At just 22 years old, Weinberger was one of the youngest swimmers in the field, and only took up marathon swimming a few years ago after moving to Victoria to swim at the University of Victoria.

On Friday, he finished the 10-km course in one hour, 50 minutes and 0.5 seconds, which was 1.8 seconds behind silver medallist Thomas Lurz of Germany and 5.2 back of Tunesia’s Oussama Mellouli, who nabbed gold.

“It was an extremely physical race,” said Weinberger. “That’s why

Junior Tritons winless in BCJPBL playoffsNick GreenizanSports Reporter

The White Rock Junior Tritons picked a bad time to struggle on the baseball diamond, as the under-16 squad went winless in BC Junior Premier Baseball League playoffs last weekend in Whalley.

The Tritons, who were the seventh seed out of eight, opened the round-robin portion of the tournament with an 11-4 loss to the North Shore Junior Twins Thursday, and fell to 0-2 Friday after a 4-1 loss to the Abbotsford Junior Cardinals. Then,

on Saturday, White Rock dropped a 6-1 decision to the Coquitlam Redlegs, and did not advance to the playoff rounds Sunday.

The BCJPBL championship was won by the Victoria Junior Mariners, who defeated Abbotsford 7-2 in the title game.

Against the North Shore in the tournament opener, the Twins jumped out to an early lead after scoring seven runs in the bottom of the first inning, and though the Tritons battled back to score three in the third frame – Liam Rihela singled and scored, while Liam Ribata and Daniel

Cassino each walked and came around to count – the Twins tacked on two more runs in the fourth and sixth innings, respectively, to win the game.

Friday’s game against Abby was much closer, with the score 1-0 Cardinals until they added three more in a big third inning. White Rock’s lone run came in the sixth inning, when catcher Dylan Yeager, who reached second base on an error and then stole third, scored when Griffin Hebert reached base – also on an error – one batter later.

Scott Doucet pitched six innings for the Tritons, striking out three while allowing four hits.

Saturday against the Redlegs, the Junior Tritons took a 1-0 lead in the first inning when Joey Gladman hit a triple and then scored when Yeager, the next batter, grounded out to second base.

Brayden Bouchey, who also pitched against the Twins Thursday, was tagged with the loss, pitching three innnings, striking out six and allowing three runs on four hits.

INSTITUTE

Despite an increasing acknowledgement in our society that professional counselling can be a benefi cial experience, many people still delay the choice to make that fi rst call. For example, it takes four years of living in distress before the average couple initiates counselling, losing the opportunity to address issues before they escalate or become strongly

entrenched negative patterns. One common belief that prevents many people

from giving themselves the gift of counselling is the perspective that "I can fi gure this out on my own".

While that may be true in many ways, we all have blind spots, areas for growth or fi nd that we get stuck in a feeling or perspective that limits us.

One of our skilled and experienced counsellors can provide a space to explore what you need to be able to expand, let go of the past, fi nd direction, and explore areas of your life without having to worry about anyone else.

There are times that the challenges in our lives may lead to isolation, anxiety, depression, and other health problems. Through counselling, you can explore your alternatives, build on your strengths, and develop new insight and skills.

At Sources Counselling Services, we will tailor our approach to your goals in ways that feel right for you and consider the uniqueness of you as a person and of your particular situation.

Please call us at 604-538-2522 and our friendly intake coordinator will match you with the counsellor that is right for you. Please inquire about our sliding fee scale.

Counselling: Perhaps life's biggest investment

Personal growth, self awareness and healthy relationships can be enhanced through counselling with

No. 1-ranked U.S. on Monday. In that game, Canada led for

all but 30 seconds, but was undone after a rarely called penalty led to the American tying goal, and in overtime, U.S. veteran Abby Wambach won the game on a header.

Burnaby’s Christine Sinclair scored all three Canadian goals.

After the loss, Herdman called the officiating “bizarre” and later added that “the job is not done… we’ll take a medal from this tournament.”

After the semifinal game, FIFA – international soccer’s governing body – announced

that an investigation would be launched into the comments

made by a number of Canadian players and coaches with regard to the officiating in the game, but no suspensions or discipline

was handed down prior to

Thursday’s bronze-medal tilt. Herdman is one of two

Peninsula residents with the women’s national program; longtime local soccer executive Maeve Glass is also in London as the team’s equipment manager.

Later on Thursday, the U.S. women’s team edged Japan 2-1 in the gold-medal game.

sports

I avoided being in the pack… I wanted to have a smart race and things turned out in my favour.”

Weinberger’s medal was Canada’s 17th at the 2012 Summer Olympics, and the country’s third podium finish in swimming. It was also Canada’s first-ever Olympic medal in an open-water event.

It’s the third medal for the Semiahmoo Peninsula, as the third-place finish at Hyde Park comes on the heels of Canada’s women’s soccer team winning bronze Thursday, and White Rock’s Christine Girard placing third in weightlifting.

The women’s soccer team is coached by Peninsula resident John Herdman, while Maeve Glass – former president of Peace Arch Soccer – is the team’s equipment manager (see related story).

And though it’s been a successful few weeks for all hometown Olympians – swimmer Hilary Caldwell rounded out the local contingent in London – Friday belonged to Weinberger.

The podium finish caps an impressive few months for the young swimmer, who has second- and third-place finishes on the World Cup circuit this year. He also won an Olympic test event on the Hyde Park course last August, so the course was not unfamiliar to him.

Last month, Weinberger’s coach, Ron Jacks, called him “the fastest improving open-water swimmer in the world.”
