Subpoena looms for Ford in Lisi extortion case BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE Guitar god Jack White delivered a bristling 35-song attack at the ACC on Thursday, and the sold-out crowd lapped up every second of the nearly three-hour performance. From The Hardest Button to Button to a rousing Seven Nation Army, White relentlessly delivered riff after savage riff to uproarious applause. TOM PANDI/FOR METRO Police are ready to subpoena Mayor Rob Ford to testify as a witness in the extortion case of friend and accused drug dealer Alexander (Sandro) Lisi, Torstar News Service has learned. Though a quiet meeting be- tween Ford and lead investiga- tor Det.-Sgt. Gary Giroux was arranged on Thursday to serve the mayor, those plans appear to have been derailed after the media reached out to Ford’s lawyer. Criminal lawyer Dennis Morris told Torstar it’s not a matter of if the mayor will get notice now, but when. “Basically if they want to subpoena the mayor, they’re going to and it’s just a matter of where and when,” Morris said. “It’s not like you’re not willing to be subpoenaed, it just has to be the right time and place.... It’s just like going on a date; if today doesn’t work, make it to- morrow.” Morris wouldn’t comment on whether earlier plans had been cancelled or why. Giroux has made no secret of the fact he wants a chance to question the mayor in connec- tion with an ongoing investiga- tion into his associates and the existence of a video showing Ford smoking what appears to be crack cocaine. Whether or not Ford is still Toronto’s mayor after an elec- tion Oct. 27, he may still face a series of revealing questions about his own time with the Dixon City Bloods gang, his relationship with Lisi, his own drug use and his involvement, if any, in the alleged efforts to recover the crack video. Lisi is accused of threaten- ing two alleged gang members who police say were part of a group running guns and drugs through condo towers in Etobi- coke. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE Court. Alleged drug dealer’s preliminary hearing is scheduled for a week in March and another week mid-April NEWS WORTH SHARING. $ 10 million Tonight’s Jackpot More online For more news visit metronews.ca Mark your calendars Once served — if the Crown decides to call him to the witness stand — Rob Ford is obligated to testify under oath at a preliminary hearing set to start March 2.

Subpoena looms for Ford in Lisi extortion case

brinGinG down thE housEGuitar god Jack White delivered a bristling 35-song attack at the ACC on Thursday, and the sold-out crowd lapped up every second of the nearly three-hour performance. From The Hardest Button to Button to a rousing Seven Nation Army, White relentlessly delivered riff after savage riff to uproarious applause. toM PAndi/For MEtro

Police are ready to subpoena Mayor Rob Ford to testify as a witness in the extortion case of friend and accused drug dealer Alexander (Sandro) Lisi, Torstar News Service has learned.

Though a quiet meeting be-tween Ford and lead investiga-tor Det.-Sgt. Gary Giroux was arranged on Thursday to serve the mayor, those plans appear to have been derailed after the media reached out to Ford’s lawyer.

Criminal lawyer Dennis Morris told Torstar it’s not a

matter of if the mayor will get notice now, but when.

“Basically if they want to subpoena the mayor, they’re going to and it’s just a matter of where and when,” Morris said. “It’s not like you’re not willing to be subpoenaed, it just has to be the right time and place.... It’s just like going on a date; if today doesn’t work, make it to-morrow.”

Morris wouldn’t comment on whether earlier plans had

been cancelled or why.Giroux has made no secret

of the fact he wants a chance to question the mayor in connec-tion with an ongoing investiga-tion into his associates and the existence of a video showing Ford smoking what appears to be crack cocaine.

Whether or not Ford is still Toronto’s mayor after an elec-tion Oct. 27, he may still face a series of revealing questions about his own time with the Dixon City Bloods gang, his relationship with Lisi, his own drug use and his involvement, if any, in the alleged efforts to recover the crack video.

Lisi is accused of threaten-ing two alleged gang members who police say were part of a group running guns and drugs through condo towers in Etobi-coke. TORSTAR NeWS SeRviCe

Tory ahead in new poll for mayor, Ford in 3rd

John Tory holds a slight lead over Olivia Chow and a bigger lead over Rob Ford, a new poll by a prominent conservative pollster has found.

The poll by Dimitri Panta-zopoulos is the second in July to suggest Tory has risen to first place in Toronto’s mayoral campaign. Tory, the former Pro-gressive Conservative leader, was one point behind Chow, the former NDP MP, in a third July poll.

The new poll had Tory with

30 per cent of the vote, Chow with 26 per cent, incumbent Ford with 23 per cent. Coun. Karen Stintz and former coun-cillor David Soknacki remained far out of contention, with 3 per cent each.

When only “decided” voters were included, Tory had 35 per cent, Chow 31 per cent, Ford 27 per cent, Stintz and Soknacki 4 per cent each.

Tory was in second or third place in every public poll until July. Voting day is Oct. 27, three months from now.

Pantazopoulos is a former pollster for Prime Minister Stephen Harper. He has ties to both Ford and Tory: he con-ducted an early poll for Ford’s 2010 campaign, and he worked with senior Tory aide Nick Kou-valis on the 2013 campaign of British Columbia Premier

Christy Clark, a Liberal.Pantazopoulos is now a part-

ner in the lobby firm Maple Leaf Strategies. He polled 800 resi-dents from Monday through Wednesday using live inter-views. The poll is considered accurate within 3.5 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.

The winner of a three-con-tender race will probably need to have support in the mid-30s at least. Like every other poll in the municipal election to date, this one found that Ford has alienated too many people to

rise that high. Only 23 per cent said Ford

deserves re-election, while 67 per cent said it is time for some-one new. Ford was the second choice of a mere 13 per cent of Tory supporters and a tiny 3 per cent of Chow supporters.

By contrast, 36 per cent of Tory supporters said Chow was their second choice. Forty-four per cent of Chow supporters said Tory was their second choice.

Pantazopoulos, playing off the phrase “Ford Nation,” said the poll shows “Ford Stagna-tion.”

“There is simply no room for Rob Ford’s support to increase,” Pantazopoulos said in a state-ment. “He has what he has and he will need a game-changer to get into contention.”TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

Pearson airport

Take train and still paying for parking?Travellers riding the city’s new airport train will avoid Toronto traffic. But they will still pay a portion of the cost of parking at Pearson.

In an agreement that some are calling a blatant cash grab, each UP Express ticket will include a $2 air-port fee, money the author-ity that runs Pearson says will help compensate for lost parking revenue when people start taking the train rather than driving to the airport.

Metrolinx, the provin-cial agency building the $456-million rail link from Union Station to Pearson is anticipating 5,000 riders a day, about 1.8 million annu-ally. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

Driver charged in crash death of Walsh’s daughterA 50-year-old man was charged Thursday with careless driving in con-nection with the death of Georgia Walsh, daughter of Conservative Party president John Walsh.

The seven-year-old died from severe head trauma after she was struck July 16 by a turning vehicle near Millwood Rd. and McRae Dr.

The driver, whose name has not been released, re-mained at the scene of the collision and was devastat-ed by the accident, police said. He is slated to appear in court on Sept. 8, where he will also face a charge of failing to stop at a red light. TORSTAR NEWS SERVICE

$20 MILLION BLOWOUT!

A 27-year-old man impersonat-ed a substitute teacher for more than two months in several Scarborough schools before he was discovered and arrested this week, police say.

The man allegedly posed as a teacher in Toronto District School Board (TDSB) elemen-tary and high schools, where he worked as a special-needs as-sistant and teacher’s aide.

Police believe the alleged impersonation lasted from April 1 to June 5, and included the following schools: Ingle-wood Heights Junior Public School, H.A. Halbert Junior Public School, Ionview Public School, Birchmount Park Col-

legiate Insti-tute and Cen-tennial Road Junior Public School.

Toronto r e s i d e n t Bayol Avah was arrested Wednesday. He is charged with five counts of personation to gain advantage.

A TDSB spokesperson said the man wasn’t hired by the school board, but rather is al-leged to have assumed the iden-tity of an existing employee on the substitute teacher’s list. torstar news service

Wait to pick new chief: Kelly Deputy Mayor Norm Kelly says the decision on the next Toronto police chief should wait until after the Oct. 27 election.

“My first impulse would be to roll it over to the new administration,” he said Thursday at city hall.

On Wednesday, the Toronto Police Services Board announced it would not renew Chief Bill Blair’s contract. The press release said it “will now begin to take the neces-sary steps as we embark on the open search for the next chief of police for the City of Toronto.” torstar news service

Plans for later phases of the Ontario Place revitalization include a “canal district,” pictured, a pedestrian land bridge that extends across Lake Shore Boulevard into Exhibition Place, and green space. Contributed

ontario Place to stay condo-free

The provincial government says it will start the first phase of its planned Ontario Place revitalization in the next few months.

Minister of Tourism, Cul-ture and Sport Michael Coteau says construction is expected to begin soon on the first phase of the project — a new urban park and waterfront trail expected to open in 2016.

He says the next stage will be an environmental assess-ment and land use plan to pre-

pare for development of the remainder of the grounds.

The province has ear-marked $100 million for the first phases of the revitaliza-tion project. Coteau says, how-ever, that there are no plans to incorporate residential de-velopment — such as condos — into the site, because the space is being set aside for the use of the public.

Plans for later phases in-clude the expansion of live music performances, a “canal district” of waterfront shops and restaurants and a hub for “culture, discovery and innova-tion.”

Premier Kathleen Wynne and the Liberals talked about revitalizing the space during the provincial election cam-

paign, with Wynne pledg-ing no condos would be built there. the canadian Press

Ontario Place opened in May 1971, but was closed in 2012 as the number of visitors dwindled and the province, struggling to rein in a $15-bil-lion deficit, said it could no longer afford to keep it open.

• The government was spending about $20 million per year on the site, and attendance was around 300,000 annually compared to 2.5 million when it opened.

COMMISSION

JUST FOUR WEEKS UNTIL NEW, MODERN TTC STREETCARS BEGIN SERVICE

EMPLOYEE PROFILE

Name: Leo Pece

Years of Service: 25

Position: Janitor

This week starts the one-month countdown to the introduction in-

to service of our new, state-of-the-art, low-floor street-car.

The deployment of new streetcars on the 510 Spadina line will mark a major mile-stone ‎in our journey to mod-ernize the TTC, delivering new standards of comfort, accessibility and ride quality for customers.

Introducing a new fleet of vehicles takes years of plan-ning and we are now dealing with the final details to make sure that everything goes right on launch day.

Our engineers are con-ducting final tests to ensure that the vehicles, overhead wires and on-board equip-ment are all ready to go. Operators and vehicle main-

tainers are being trained on the characteristics of the new units. And our communica-tions team is preparing a comprehensive information program so that you, our cus-tomers, know what to expect.

We have worked with our Advisory Committee on Ac-cessible Transit (ACAT) to finalize the many accessibil-ity features on the new cars and to draw up operating procedures for our staff so they may offer excellent cus-tomer service from day one.

The new streetcars will en-ter service with onboard sin-gle ride and ticket validator machines. Later this fall, we will start fitting the new streetcars with Presto smart-card readers, part of the roll-out of the new fare payment method you will eventually see in every TTC vehicle and

subway station, making tok-ens, tickets and paper trans-fers part of TTC history.

Staring on Aug. 31, the en-tire 510 Spadina route will convert to a Proof of Pay-ment (POP) system meaning that customers will be able to board and disembark at any door, on any streetcar on that route. As the new streetcars start service on new routes – phased in through to 2019 – those routes will also become POP routes. Customer ser-vice staff and fare inspectors will be deployed to help you get used to this new arrange-ment, and to ensure that everyone has a valid proof of payment for their journey.

With new buses, subway trains and streetcars – and a new smartcard on the way – TTC modernization is in full swing.

TAKE THE TTC TO THE SCOTIABANK CARIBBEAN CARNIVAL

On Saturday, Aug. 2, come out and join the TTC at the 47th annual Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival parade. A TTC bus will be in the middle of the action, led by the Toronto Revel-lers Mas Band, and former Toronto Raptor Jamaal Magloire.

Customers will benefit from increased service on the 504 King streetcars operating between Dundas West Station and Sunnyside Loop, as well as the 509 Harbourfront Express, 29 Dufferin, 47 Lansdowne Express, and Keele Station Express bus routes.

To plan your trip, use the TTC trip planner available at www.ttc.ca. A full listing of Scotiabank Caribbean Carnival events is available at www.torontocaribbeancarnival.com. See you there!

The TTC’s new low-floor streetcars include unique features that will make your ride more comfortable and reliable. All-door boarding, for example, will allow vehicles to ser-vice stops more quickly. To activate the door at some less busy stops, cus-tomers will need to push a red but-ton. A blue button, located beside the accessible entrance, must be pushed for the ramp to be deployed.

Like with any new technology, we know it will take customers a bit of time to become familiar with some of these modern features. To ensure a seamless transition and to help cus-tomers fully enjoy the benefits of the new streetcar, the TTC will launch educational campaigns and have cus-tomer service staff both on board and on the street to answer questions. Keep an eye on.ttc.ca for further de-tails, including explainer videos, as we near the launch date on the 510

Spadina line on August 31.As always, customers can find the

latest streetcar news at www.face-book.com/StreetcarTO, Twitter @StreetcarTO, or newstreetcars.ttc.ca.

Sierra Leone

Soccer team barred from travelling over fears of EbolaThe Sierra Leone soccer team has been banned from travelling to the Seychelles for an African Cup of Nations qualifier because of fears over the deadly Ebola virus.

Players and officials were barred from board-ing a plane Thursday in Nairobi, Kenya, that would have taken them to the Seychelles capital of Vic-toria for Saturday’s game.

The BBC reported that Seychelles immigration authorities decided not to allow the Sierra Leone party to travel to the Indi-an Ocean island because of Ebola. The virus has killed more than 700 people in the West African countries of Sierra Leone, Guinea, Liberia and Nigeria.

The BBC also said Sey-chelles forfeited Saturday’s game and a place in next year’s African Cup as a result.the associated press

Two weeks after a missile brought down Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, an inter-national team of investiga-tors reached a wreckage site in eastern Ukraine on Thurs-day that remains bitterly con-tested between government forces and pro-Russia separa-tist rebels.

For the families of the victims, it was an important start in locating and recover-ing bodies still rotting in the fields and building a case against those who perpetrat-ed the tragedy.

As the investigators — two apiece from the Netherlands and Australia — made an in-itial survey of the area short-ly after lunchtime, mortar shells rained down on fields in a nearby village. Despite the lingering signs of risk, the team called their one-hour in-spection a success.

For days, clashes along routes to the wreckage site had kept investigators from reaching the area to find

and retrieve bodies that have been lying in open fields where midsummer temper-atures have hovered around 32 C.

But after negotiations, the investigators were allowed through the final rebel check-point before the wreckage site at the village of Rozsy-pne. A rifle-toting militiaman then fired a warning shot to prevent reporters from ac-companying the convoy on Thursday afternoon.

The militiaman, who gave his name only as Sergei, said there was still fighting in Rozsypne as the Ukrainian army continues an offensive to take back territory from the rebels.

Australian Federal Police Cmdr. Brian McDonald said the visit was only a prelimin-ary survey before more com-prehensive recovery work.

“We had a quick inspec-tion of the site. Today was more about an assessment of the site than it was of a search,” said McDonald.

Up to 80 bodies are still at the site, said Australian For-eign Minister Julie Bishop.the associated press

outbreak. canada issues advisory on ebola, says no need for travel banCanada’s public health agency has issued a travel notice about the Ebola outbreak in three Af-rican countries.

But it is not following the United States in warning cit-izens not to travel to Liberia, Guinea and Sierra Leone — at least not yet.

The notice from the Public Health Agency of Canada notes that dozens of cases of Ebola virus infection have been re-ported in those countries.

And it adds that Nigeria’s ministry of health has reported its first death due to the virus.

But it adds that the World Health Organization does not recommend that any travel or trade restrictions be applied to the African countries in rela-tion to the outbreak. U.S. health officials are warning Americans not to travel to countries hit by the outbreak, which has killed more than 700 people this year.the canadian press

Israel and Hamas have agreed to a 72-hour humanitarian ceasefire beginning Friday, during which time there will be negotiations on a more dur-able truce, the United States and United Nations announced Thursday.

At least four short humani-tarian ceasefires have been announced since the conflict began, but each has been broken by renewed fighting.

A joint statement released simultaneously in New Delhi, where U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is travelling, and at UN headquarters in New York said the U.S. and UN had got-ten assurances that all parties to the conflict had agreed to an unconditional ceasefire.

An official at Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office confirmed that Israel had

agreed to a 72-hour truce begin-ning at 8 a.m. local time Friday. Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said the Islamic militant group was also in agreement.

During the ceasefire, Kerry said Israel will be able to con-

tinue its defence operations to destroy tunnels that are be-hind its territorial lines.

Palestinians will be able to receive food, medicine and humanitarian assistance, bury their dead, treat the wounded

and travel to their homes. Israeli and Palestinian dele-

gations are expected to travel to Cairo for talks with the Egyptian government aimed at reaching an end to the conflict.

At least 1,441 Palestinians

have been killed, three-quar-ters of them civilians, since hostilities began on July 8, ac-cording to Gaza health min-istry officials. Israel says 56 soldiers, two Israeli civilians and a Thai agricultural worker have died.

In Geneva, the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay accused both Israel and Hamas militants of violating the rules of war.

She said Hamas is violating international humanitarian law by “locating rockets within schools and hospitals, or even launching these rockets from densely populated areas.” But she added that this did not ab-solve Israel from disregarding the same law.

The Israeli government, she said, has defied international law by attacking civilian areas of Gaza such as schools, hospi-tals, homes and UN facilities.

Palestinians have fired more than 2,850 rockets at Is-rael, while Israel has launched more than 4,000 strikes against Hamas-linked targets, includ-ing rocket launchers and mosques where it says weapons were being stored. the associated press

‘Indefensible’

U.S. criticizes Israel’s actionsThe White House says there is little doubt Israeli artil-lery hit a UN school in Gaza, describing the shelling as “totally unacceptable” and “indefensible.”

Israeli Embassy

Israel supporters rally in France Hundreds of riot police in Paris deployed near the Is-raeli Embassy on Thursday for the first major pro-Israel rally since the start of the latest Gaza war.

France has the largest Jewish and Muslim popula-tions in Western Europe, and the Gaza war has raised tensions to their highest in years. Roger Cukierman, head of the group organ-izing Thursday’s rally, said that Israel has the “right and duty to defend its cit-izens.” the associated press

EU slaps more sanctions on Russia

The European Union on Thurs-day revealed the details of its broad economic sanctions against Russia, including the

names of five major banks that will see their access to the 28-nation bloc’s capital market curtailed.

The banks, in which the Russian state holds a majority stake, include the country’s largest lender, Sberbank. The others are Gazprombank, VEB, VTB bank and Rosselkhozbank, also known as the Russian Agri-cultural Bank.

The latest sanctions were

announced Tuesday, but the names of the targeted firms and other details were only released Thursday. The pack-age of punitive measures also includes an arms embargo and the prohibition to export some oil exploration technology used for deep-water drilling, Arctic oil exploration and production, or shale oil projects. Finally, the sanctions also forbid the export of so-called dual-use goods,

which can be used for military and civilian purposes, when-ever they are destined to Rus-sia’s military. The EU is Russia’s biggest trading partner.

The EU beefed up its sanc-tions against Russia over what it decries as Moscow’s med-dling in Ukraine after the downing of a Malaysia Airlines passenger jet earlier this month over eastern Ukraine. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Environment. IMF calls on Canada to hike gas taxes; Conservatives say no wayThe International Monetary Fund says Canada and other countries can improve their economies and environment by hiking energy taxes — while cutting them on people and capital.

In a new book, Getting Energy Prices Right: From Prin-ciple to Practice, the IMF es-sentially endorses policies — at times advocated by the federal Liberals and NDP — leading to what some have termed a “green shift” in the taxation system. The Conservative gov-ernment, however, has rejected carbon taxes.

The IMF argues countries should tax energy to such a level that the revenue pays for energy’s environment and health costs.

The IMF attempts to calculate the cost of car-bon energy — coal, gas, motor diesel and natural gas — for

156 countries and proposes precise taxation levels for each country to implement.

For Canada, the IMF says gasoline should be taxed at about $0.55 US a litre instead of the current 36 cents, and road diesel at about $0.64 per litre, instead of the current 42 cents.

YES WE CAM, NO ARETHA CAN’T

Researchers have found a way to make mice see-through — not while they’re alive, and for research only — to help scientists study fi ne details of anatomy.

Before they are treated with chemicals, the animals are euthanized and their skin is removed. Researchers make their inner organs transparent, but not their bones. The result looks like a rodent-shaped block

of gelatin, with the organs held in place by connective tissue and a gel used in the procedure.

Scientists have been able to make tissues transparent to some degree for a century. Last year, a technique that produced see-through mouse brains made headlines. Such treatments reveal far more detail than X-rays or MRI exams could deliver. The new work is the fi rst to make an entire transparent mouse.

Mice are mainstays of biomedical research because much of their basic biology is similar to ours and they can be altered in ways that simulate human diseases. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

1 Clipped. Donald Sterling bought the San Diego Clippers for $12.5 million in 1981

and moved them to L.A. Now, banned by the NBA for racist remarks, he lost the case to block the sale of his team on Monday. Oh, what a tough pill to swallow! But something tells me the $2-billion sale price will make it go down like 100 million single-malt scotch-es.

2 Autocracy. Twitter stock has stagnated this year as some investors believe it has

outgrown itself and reached a plateau. For more news on this, check Twitter.

3 R-E-S-P-E-C-T. Aretha Franklin walks into a Johnny Rockets in Niagara Falls with

her nephew. This is not a joke. She orders a burger to go and sits down. An employee then tells her the table is exclusively for patrons eating in. Franklin agrees to have it there but is rudely told that she can’t because they al-

ready rang her up as a takeout customer. How great is it that this girl was dumb enough to pull resto-rank on the Queen of Soul? Unless, maybe she knew it was Aretha and thought this could make her famous or get her a reality show. Darn it, too bad nobody mentioned her name.

4 So-duh! New research from the University of Southern California shows that soft

drinks can impair our ability to learn and re-member information. So when the dentist asks you how your teeth fell apart, you can honestly shrug and say, “I don’t remember.”

5 Finish line. Bachelorette Andi Dorfman ap-parently wanted a test drive before com-

mitting to a long-term purchase. It seems that while Nick may have been quicker from 0 to 60, Josh was su-perior when it came to handling curves. As a result, Andi chose Josh and was outed by Nick for having messed with his

gear box.

6 #BieberBrawl. Twitter was abuzz with news that Orlando Bloom tried to punch Justin Bieber at a restaurant in Ibiza.

Amateur footage demonstrated the type of witty banter we’ve come to expect from the Biebs. “What’s up, b—?” followed by a “What. What.” It’s at this point that Bloom allegedly attempts to get at Bieber, but I don’t know. Maybe he thought he was choking or just wanted to see if he could shake a vocabulary out of him.

7 Air Force None. CBC news reported that when Alison Redford was Alberta premier she had staff book false seats on govern-

ment planes and then remove them so she could have the plane to herself. It’s not enough that she gets to fly in a plane that’s en-tirely first class; she won’t even share it with anyone. Nice.

8 Say what? One of the highest-trending hashtags on Twitter is #shareacokewithcam. So who is this Cam that merits such

an endorsement? A singer? A movie star? Nope. Just another pu-bescent Bieber-esque teen whose Vine videos, which focus on his toned and hairless abs, have earned him 3 million followers. I beg of you — someone, anyone — kill me now.

Why do this?

• Researchers say they could map out the nervous system or the spread of cancer using the see-through mice.

• It might also help doctors analyze biopsy samples from people someday.

Guardians of the Galaxy is the most pure fun blockbuster since the fi rst Iron Man, says Richard Crouse. CONTRIBUTED

Richard: Mark, summer blockbusters haven’t been much fun this year. Sure, we’ve had giant robots, ac-tion galore and some edge-of-our-seat moments, but from the xenophobia of Dawn of the Planet of the Apes to the daddy issues and nuclear nightmares of Godzilla, the season’s tent-pole movies have been a bit gloomy.

Guardians of the Galaxy is

a tonic for the troops. An old-fashioned space opera, it’s a wild ride and the most pure fun blockbuster since the first Iron Man movie.

Did you have as much fun at it as I did?

Mark: Richard, I gener-ally don’t care for space op-eras, but this one’s a game-changer.

Its debt to Star Wars is enormous, with Chris Pratt as Luke Skywalker, Zoe Saldana in the Carrie Fisher role, and the raccoon and the tree as R2D2 and CP3O.

But then its originality takes flight — literally — and the movie becomes its own unique creation. Unlike Star Wars, it has a great sense of humour about itself, and if you don’t fall in love with

the talking raccoon with the Brooklyn accent, you’re as vil-lainous as the bad guys in the movie.

RC: Totally, it’s filled with one-liners, sight gags and funny moments that play off the more standard block-buster-style action and battle scenes.

Pratt has an offhand deliv-ery that recalls Harrison Ford in Han Solo mode, Cooper does wisecracks like a skilled Catskills comic and (almost a spoiler) there’s Baby Groot to up the cute factor.

They supply the light mo-ments, but despite Cooper’s presence, this isn’t The Hang-over in space; it’s an all-out action movie with a blithe spirit.

The only bits that dragged

for me were the set-up scenes. Did you find the exposition got in the way occasionally?

MB: I don’t think you watch this movie for the plot anyways.

But the very first scene, a waaaay too serious deathbed scene between a boy and his mother, left me with a bad taste and it took me awhile to recover from it and enjoy the movie.

It isn’t all that far from the old Flash Gordon serials, except that every piece of technology is beyond state-of-the-art and the makeup is wonderfully imaginative.

My biggest beef ? The bad guys have bad dia-

logue. And they deliver their lines in the standard three-octaves-lower register of vil-

lains in hackier flicks.

RC: By the time the end credits roll, however, none of our gripes matter much because the movie is so much fun.

MB: The movie is so much fun it actually enjoys itself.

Guardians of the Galaxy. Cross between Star Wars, Iron Man and Indiana Jones delivers action, wisecracks and a talking raccoon

Synopsis

Chris Pratt is Peter Quill, a cosmic adventurer. After stealing a mysterious metal orb containing an “infi n-ity chip,” he becomes the target of Ronan (Lee Pace), an intergalactic Genghis Khan with ambitions to destroy his enemies, the Xandarians. Quill forms an uneasy alliance with a gen-etically engineered raccoon and bounty hunter Rocket (Bradley Cooper), Groot (Vin Diesel), a plant-based humanoid, assassin Gamora (Zoe Saldana) and Drax the Destroyer (Dave Bautista).

Chadwick Boseman had to channel James Brown through multiple personas and pompadours. contributed

He didn’t Feel Good about role in biopic

A year after playing Jackie Rob-inson in 42, Chadwick Bose-man was back in biopic spring training.

To become James Brown for the film Get on Up, Boseman needed to rely on an entirely different skill set. But the prep-aration necessary to transform into a tireless performer like Brown — “the hardest working man in show business,” after all — was oddly reminiscent of working out on the baseball diamond. “I was like, ‘This is déjà vu,”’ says Boseman. “I’m waking up in the morning and lacing them up. Doesn’t mat-ter whether it’s cleats or if it’s leather shoes.”

For the second time, Bose-

man has stepped into some very big ones. A largely un-known actor previously, the 32-year-old Boseman has emerged with back-to-back biopics of 20th century titans: one the revolutionary breaker of baseball’s colour line, the other the Godfather of Soul. Both were unstoppable forces that blazed across civil rights-era America. One could steal home; the other could do the Mashed Potato.

Tackling one such historical figure is daring; two is auda-cious. It wasn’t Boseman’s idea.

“There’s no way in the world,” Boseman says was his initial reaction to playing Brown, still sounding genu-inely resistant to the idea. Not only was playing such a com-plicated, iconic personality like Brown a fearsome challenge, it also could potentially typecast Boseman in a biopic bubble.

“I felt like if I keep doing this biopic thing, then all I’m going

to get is biopics,” says Boseman. “I was already getting all biopic scripts.”

But director Tate Taylor (The Help) pressed. He brought Bose-man in to read a scene in the movie of Brown at 63 and was immediately won over by the fresh-faced Boseman’s ability to transform into the legend late in life. “I thought: This is the guy. Please let him be able to learn how to dance,” said Tay-lor. But it took weeks of coax-ing: “Chad’s point of view was, ‘Nobody should do this. It’s just not even possible.”’

Brown’s vocals are used dur-ing performances in the movie, but the part required Boseman to play Brown across time and pompadours. He had to find the voice, the moves, the pos-ture and the persona, and hope somewhere in there was the man, too. “It was all daunting, to be honest with you,” sighs Boseman. The AssociATed Press

Get on Up. Actor Chadwick Boseman was reluctant to play the iconic James Brown

James Brown’s many faces

Get on Up, produced by Brian Grazer, went through many iterations. At one point, Spike Lee was to direct. Later, Mick Jagger, who frequently crossed paths with Brown and took much inspiration from him, came on board as a producer. (Jagger is also producing an upcom-ing documentary about Brown, directed by Alex Gibney.) The film, which opens this weekend, skips across Brown’s expansive life, from the Georgia poverty of his hard upbringing to his more cartoonish and violent later years (James died in 2006). Get on Up attempts to synthesize all of Brown’s many dimensions: tyrannical band leader, musical vision-ary, funk preacher, domestic abuser.

GamoraAn alien orphan who was abducted by big baddie Thanos and trained to be a living weapon along with her sister Nebula. She doesn’t feel great about what she’s been doing since then and is looking for a change.

Peter QuillStar LordAn Earthling raised by his single mother until her death in 1988, at which point the 11-year-old was picked up by a group of alien thieves and

bounty hunt-ers called the Ravagers. He has a sharp wit, delu-sions of grandeur and an awesome mix tape of ’70s hits that is his only relic from Earth.

Rocket RaccoonA bounty hunter and mercenary with a bit of an anger problem — due mostly to the fact that

he’s the product of genetic experiments by some unknown scientifi c madman. Fun fact: Rocket reveals in the fi lm that he actually has no idea what a raccoon is.

Drax the DestroyerA proud, noble warrior out for revenge after his family was slaughtered ruthlessly by Ronan, a Kree alien madman in league with Thanos. But fi rst he needs to get himself out of prison and fi gure out how sarcasm

GrootA sentient, tree-like creature that can grow and stretch to incredible

heights — but with a very, very limited vocabu-lary.

Primer

Average moviegoers — and even some affirmed comic book fans — might be a little hazy on just who these Guardians of the Galaxy are and how they tie in to the existing Marvel movie universe. (You know, with Iron Man and Thor and all those guys?) So here’s a handy primer on the newest piece of the billion-dollar cinematic puzzle. Just because it’s space doesn’t mean it’s the future. As the movie makes clear when we first see the grown-up Peter Quill, this is happening now, on the same timeline as The Avengers, Captain America: The Winter Soldier and the Thor films.

How does this story � t into the Marvel universe?If you’ve been staying through the credits for Marvel’s other fi lms, you’ve already seen some pieces of this one: Thanos, the big bad guy ordering Ronan around — and voiced by Josh Brolin — fi rst appeared in a post-credit sequence at the end of The Avengers. Turns out he was the

one helping Loki attack Earth in that fi lm, and he’ll be causing trouble for just about

everyone in the Marvel universe for the foreseeable future.

And at the end of Thor: The Dark World, two Asgardians delivered the pesky Aether to the Collector (Benicio del Toro), explaining that it and the

Tesseract are “infi nity stones” — which will be important

later, so keep them in mind. Look for the Collector to pop up again in this

fi lm.The Avengers

Thor: The Dark World

A Guardians glossary: Be prepared

For David Bautista, mak-ing the switch from profes-sional wrestler to movies wasn’t easy, but it was well worth it now that he gets to be Drax the Destroyer in Guardians of the Galaxy.

Still, he finds himself butting up against people’s preconceived notions of him, but he’s working on that, too.

If you were to take on a title like Drax the Destroy-er, what would yours be?It would be, like, David the Doofus (laughs).

I don’t know, I think when people see me they have a certain perception of me because of the way I look. You know, I get it — the big muscles and tattoos — but it doesn’t really explain who I am.

The reason I have all these muscles is because I have issues. Internally. The

gym is where I found my sanctuary. It’s kind of my therapy and my release.

The gym is where I worked out my problems, which I’ve had more than my share of.

But it doesn’t really explain who I am, just the way I look physically.

I look intimidating until you talk to me for two seconds.

That’s an interesting way to go through life.

Yeah, it’s a little different. And especially with wrest-ling, that didn’t help, just perpetuated it.

People want to put a label on you, and a lot of times it’s based on the way you look.

When I left wrestling it wasn’t easy for me to break that perception of me — es-pecially to get in doors to audition for roles, it was kind of hard convincing people that I actually want-ed to act. David Bautista is Drax the Destroyer in Guardians of the Galaxy. CONTRIBUTED

Bieber posts bikini picafter dust-up with Bloom, then tries to make him cry

In the wake of his scuffle with Orlando Bloom in Ibiza earlier this week, Justin Bieber continues to prove exactly how mature he is by continu-ing to use the most powerful weapon in his vast arsenal — Instagram, obviously — to get the last word. After first posting and then deleting a bikini shot of Bloom’s ex-wife, Miranda Kerr, Bieber uploaded

a red-carpet photo of Bloom in which he appears to be cry-ing. True to form, he quickly deleted it — but soon gained some courage and posted it again. Take that, Orlando! They say famous people stop developing at the age at which they gain notoriety, which is really unfortunate in Bieber’s case. All signs to point to a perpetual 14-year-old.

Kate Moss seems like a fun travel companion. According to several fellow passengers, the supermodel and upstand-ing role model turned up at Turkey’s Bodrum Airport

recently, ready to board an EasyJet flight back to Lon-don, too tipsy to notice she didn’t actually have a ticket.

“The general consensus was that she didn’t have a ticket but, after chatting to the manager for some time, she was whisked off and ushered onto a flight,” an eyewitness says.

“It was pretty obvious that Kate had had a bit to drink, as she was talking loudly and didn’t seem wor-ried about being seen.”

Although to be fair: Booze or no booze, I don’t think Moss has ever been worried about being seen.

Kate Hudson

Ledger was a great kisser, Kate Hudson reveals

Kate Hudson has locked lips with a lot of attractive male co-stars throughout her film career, but one really stands out in her memory.

When asked by Bravo’s Andy Cohen about the actors with whom she’s kissed on-screen, the Almost Famous

star responded, “I would say my favourite one was Heath (Ledger). That was pretty excellent. I would say that, I look back at all of it, and that was really — he was lovely.”

Hudson co-starred with the late Dark Knight star in 2002’s the Four Feathers.

Charlize pals worried about

Penn plansCharlize Theron may be head over heels for Sean Penn, but pals of the Monster actress are worried things are mov-ing too fast, according to the National Enquirer. “They’re urging her to think twice before finally heading down the aisle with Sean,” a source explains. “They fear for her safety.” Theron has been sporting what looks like an engagement ring.

Elevate a casual get-together or pool party into something special by preparing some spec-tacular snacks. This is a recipe I go to time and time again be-cause it comes together rela-tively easily but goes a long way in making your guests feel spe-cial and welcome.

Cucumber Jelly1. In bowl, sprinkle gelatin over water; let bloom 5 mins.

2. Cut 1/4 cup (60 ml) of the cucumber into small dice and the remaining cucumber into cubes. Set aside.

3. In a blender, purée the cubed cucumber until smooth. Strain. You’ll need 1 cup (250 ml) of cucumber juice.

4. In microwave or small sauce-

pan, heat gelatin with 1/4 cup (60 ml) of cucumber juice until completely dissolved. Add the remaining juice and the diced cucumber. Stir to combine. Sea-son with salt and pepper.

5. Spoon the jelly into the bot-tom of six 1-cup (250 ml) serv-ing glasses. Cover and refriger-ate for 6 hours or overnight.

Gazpacho1. In blender, purée all ingredi-ents, except cream, salt and

pepper, until smooth. Adjust seasoning. Refrigerate 1 hour.

Assembly1. In a bowl, whip cream until stiff peaks form. To serve, pour gazpacho on cucumber jelly and top with whipped cream. Season with pepper and garnish with fresh herbs of your choice. Serve.

An arresting bottle of wine

Guys, apparently we’re letting the ladies make all the wine-buying decisions. I hadn’t given this scenario much thought until I got an update on some new wines from Australia.

Named 19 Crimes, they’re a growing collec-tion of Down Under juice wrapped in black, matte-finish bottles with labels that feature the mug shots of some unsavoury looking characters who would be right at home on some 18th century post-office wall. The de-sign is aimed squarely at the male consumer.

Though only time will tell if it works, the story behind the marketing has plenty of cross-gender appeal. If you remem-ber high school history, Australia was supposedly colonized by malcontents who — if convicted of one of 19 different infractions — were given a one-way ticket to the outback.

Dude on the front panel of the 19 Crimes

2012 Shiraz Durif ($16.95 - $19.98) doesn’t look happy about his sentence.

Crammed with dark fruit flavours and balanced by noticeable oak, it’s guilty of pairing well with barbecued meats. PRICES REFLECT THE RANGE ACROSS THE COUNTRY. SOME PROD-UCTS MAY NOT BE AVAIL-ABLE IN ALL PROVINCES.

Taste of the danforth Date: Aug. 8-10Location: The Danforth (Broadview to Jones)

Toronto’s biggest street fes-tival is back for its 21st year. How big, you ask? Well, 1.5 million people attended last year. And it’s no wonder — aside from more than 100 restaurants providing the widest range of Mediterran-ean food, culture, and music in the city, you’ll also have the chance to win a honey-moon giveaway to Greece and be a part of a Guinness World Record attempt. Hint: It has to do with Zorba the Greek.

JerkfestDate: Aug. 9-10 Location: Centennial Park

No, this has nothing to do with Seinfeld — there’s no actual jerk store. But there is a festi-val that’s been voted one of the top 100 in Toronto by Festivals and Events Ontario. Why? Probably something to do with offering all the jerk food you can handle, including pork, chicken, rabbit, and — wait for it — alligator. Live music and chicken eating competitions round out the weekend, naturally.

wakestockDate: Aug. 7-9Location: Bala, Muskoka

Yes, we know it’s not in Toronto. But three days filled with professional wakeboarding chal-lenges, live music, and partying is definitely worth fleeing the city for. Competition, cottag-ers, bikini contests, and after-parties: What more could you want from an August weekend escape? Oh, you want Ghostface Killah to be there too? Fine, he will be.

Roundhouse Craft Beer FestDate: Aug. 9-10Location: Roundhouse Park

With more than 20 of On-tario’s finest craft brewers in attendance, this festival offers the opportunity to taste a wide variety of local craft beer. Of course, accompanying the likes of Steam Whistle, Flying Monkeys, and Beau’s, will be several of Toronto’s best food trucks and vendors, including Fidel Gastro, Smoke’s Poutinerie, Bomb-eros Nachos and many more. Sounds like a pretty nice little Saturday.

VeLd electronic Music FestivalDate: Aug. 2-3 Location: Downsview Park, Toronto

Returning for its third year, VELD 2014 promises to be even bigger and better than ever. Headliner Calvin Harris is all about the summer, while internationally re-nowned sensation Armin Van Burren also knows what it feels like to rock a crowd. This is a two-day party you won’t want to miss — not even for sleep. Don’t worry, the 50,000 other people there will help keep you up.

Pan American Food Festival Date: Aug. 8-10Location: Daniels Spectrum

Sure, we’re getting the games next year… but 2014 is all about the food. Peru is the featured culinary country, but you’ll also be able to get your taste buds into the Totalmente Tamales Com-petition that will feature tamales from Colombia, Chile, Venezuela, and Panama. Twenty Pan American chefs from a multitude of different countries will be coming to Toronto for the event.

In the hours leading up to base-ball’s trade deadline, Toronto Blue Jays general manager Alex Anthopoulos heard small bits of news about moves around the American League but didn’t have time to digest them.

“You’re not really spending time to sit back and analyze what your competition’s doing and things like that,” Anthop-oulos said. “You’re so focused on what we’re trying to get

done.”While the landscape around

them changed with trades both major and minor, the Blue Jays did nothing before Thursday’s non-waiver deadline.

Entering Thursday’s action, the Blue Jays held one of the AL’s two wild-card spots. They were 2 1/2 games back of Balti-more and three games ahead of New York.

On deadline day, the Orioles added left-handed reliever An-drew Miller from the Boston Red Sox, who had their own fire sale by also sending Jon Lester to the Oakland Athlet-ics, John Lackey to the St. Louis Cardinals and Stephen Drew to the Yankees. New York also

got infielder Martin Prado from the Arizona Diamondbacks.

Ace left-hander David Price left the division as the Tampa Bay Rays sent him to the De-troit Tigers in a three-way deal that also included the Seattle Mariners. As part of the return, the Rays got centre-fielder Aus-

tin Jackson from Detroit.Jose Bautista told reporters

in Houston before Thursday night’s game against the Astros that he had “mixed feelings” about the Blue Jays’ inaction at the trade deadline.

“Of course it’s a little dis-appointing that we somehow weren’t able to get anything done, but everyone around us that’s in contention — and even some teams that aren’t in contention like the Red Sox — somehow figured it out,” he said. “Maybe they believe enough in our talent that they didn’t feel like they wanted to break up our group and sacri-fice our talent and what we’ve got going.” THE CANADIAN PRESS

Trades all around, but Jays stay put

All that Tamerlan Tagziev wanted to do was make his adopted homeland proud.

He succeeded in impres-sive fashion at the Common-wealth Games on Thursday.

The Russian-born freestyle wrestler arrived in Canada five years ago, and Thursday won his first international gold medal for his new coun-try with a dominant victory in the men’s 86-kilogram div-ision final.

Still trying to catch his breath after the match, Tag-ziev pointed to the Maple Leaf on his chest as the rea-

son for his 14-4 manhandling of Nigeria’s Andrew Dick.

“It’s a big deal to repre-

sent our country. I’m proud of being Canadian,” said the 32-year-old, who lives in To-ronto. “I’m so proud. The national anthem (played) for me.”

Tagziev’s gold came on the heels of Danielle Lappage’s earlier victory in the women’s 63-kilogram division and capped a great event on the mat for Canada. The day also saw Brittanee Laverdure and Jevon Balfour win silver med-als.

Golf

Tiger lurking four shots off of leadTiger Woods took an-other step on one of his favourite courses toward showing his game might be turning around.

Woods made six bird-ies Thursday to account for his mistakes and opened with a 2-under 68 at the Bridgestone Invita-tional. He was still four shots behind Marc Leish-man of Australia, who shot 64 on a perfect day for scoring at Firestone.

It was only a first step for Woods. He opened with a 69 at the British Open two weeks ago, and then made the cut on the number.

Tennis

Li Na pulls outof MontrealTwo-time major cham-pion Li Na pulled out of the Rogers Cup and the U.S. Open on Thursday because of a knee injury she said has bothered her for several months.

The only tennis player from China to win a Grand Slam singles title also withdrew from next month’s hard-court tour-nament in Cincinnati.

“I wanted to let all of my great fans know that unfortunately I am go-ing to have to withdraw from the upcoming WTA events in Montreal and Cincinnati, as well as the U.S. Open,” she said in a statement released by Tennis Canada. THE CANADIAN PRESS

Argos search for wins and the real Ricky Ray

Ricky Ray against the Stampeders in Toronto on July 12. Ray is expected to shoulder an Argos’ comeback this season. Steve RuSSell/toRonto StaR file

The season certainly isn’t lost in the less-than-mediocre CFL Eastern Division and the multi-tude of injuries will eventually heal and cohesion will come and Ricky Ray will revert back into Ricky Ray again.

But there is one indisput-able truth for the Argonauts as they muddle along with a 1-4 record:

“We have to start getting some wins,” said coach Scott Milanovich.

And it’s going to be up to the old heads on the roster to make sure that happens.

Coming off a disheartening lopsided loss in Saskatchewan last weekend, Milanovich is putting a resurrection of the

season squarely on the back of the team’s veterans, who have to teach the kids precisely what it takes.

Those results could very well hinge on a return to form of one of the team’s true elder statesmen in their starting quarterback. While Ray still leads the CFL in passing yards, he’s been uncharacteristically erratic. Hampered by an offen-sive line that at time has been porous (the return of left tackle Sir Vincent Rogers Friday night should help), Ray has thrown six touchdowns with four inter-ceptions this season —a sharp drop from his usual production.

“We’ve got to clean up a lot of things to give ourselves a chance to win. If we continue to go out there and miss as-signments, turn the football over, have penalties, it’s going to make it very difficult for us to go out there and be competi-tive,” said Ray Friday.torstar news service

Millions apart

Canadiens, P.K. Subban headed to arbitrationBarring a last-minute deal, the Montreal Cana-diens will spend Friday morning pointing out the flaws in one of their top players.

The Canadiens are headed to arbitration with defenceman P.K. Subban, the 2013 Norris Trophy winner and restricted free agent coming off a con-tract that paid him $3.75 million US per season.

Subban, who told a To-ronto TV station this week he’d like to stay with the Habs for the rest of his ca-reer, is seeking $8.5 mil-lion. The team has coun-tered with what is widely considered to be a lowball offer of $5.25 million.

The two sides are set to make their case to Boston-based arbitrator Elizabeth Neumeier in a hearing beginning 9 a.m. Friday, with the verdict on a one-year deal to come down Sunday afternoon.torstar news service

Horoscopes by Sally Brompton

AriesMarch 21 - April 20You’re feeling more positive about life and that makes you more willing to get out into the world and rub shoulders with people who can be of benefi t.

TaurusApril 21 - May 21If someone you don’t get along with makes an eff ort to be nice to you today, make an eff ort to be nice in return. Just because you have diff erent values does not mean you can’t get along.

GeminiMay 22 - June 21 With the Sun, Jupiter and now Mercury, your ruler, moving through one of the positive areas of your chart you’ll fi nd it easy to hit targets that before you thought were too high.

Cancer June 22 - July 23 There are some days when, no matter how hard the task you have to take care of, everything comes easy to you, and this is one of them.

Leo July 24 - Aug. 23 If you limit yourself to tried and tested ways over the next two or three days you will not only make unnecessary work for yourself but you could miss out on something good. Be open.

Virgo Aug. 24 - Sept. 23 Nothing bad will happen today as long as you think logically. That will help you make sense of what, to emotional types, makes no sense at all.

LibraSept. 24 - Oct. 23If you force others to follow your lead today, they will refuse.If, however, you use your charm to win them over you will fi nd it easy to maneuver them in the direction you want them to go.

ScorpioOct. 24 - Nov. 22What is your number one ambition in life? Are you close to making it come true? If not, don’t worry because the planets promise there is plenty of time.

SagittariusNov. 23 - Dec. 21The upsets of the past few months are beginning to fade and all you should care about today and over the weekend is having as much fun as possible.

Capricorn Dec. 22 - Jan. 20You have an obsession with perfection but you need to remember that not everyone shares it. If you take it too far today, you might tempt certain people to be obstructive.

Aquarius Jan. 21 - Feb. 19This is an excellent time for travel and social activities, and maybe aff airs of the heart as well. You will be chatty and charming today and will make a good impression on someone.

Pisces Feb. 20 - March 20If you’re planning a surprise for a loved one be careful who you confi de in because this is one of those days when information could easily slip out.
