Sex chargesadding upPolice probe into former baseball officialresults in two additional alleged victims
A former Tsawwassen resi-dent is facing more sex-relatedcharges.
Rick Glendinning, 60, whonow lives in Vancouver, wasarrested back in September andcharged withindecent assault,sexual assault andgross indecency.He was releasedbut was back inpolice custodyWednesday after two more allegedvictims came forward, said Deltapolice spokesperson Sgt. SharleneBrooks.
Delta police initially receivedinformation in December 2009regarding alleged incidents ofsexual assault that “occurred inyears previous.”
At that time investigators wereconcerned there were additionalvictims who had not yet come
forward.One area of concern in particu-
lar was Glendinning’s decade-longaffiliation with the TsawwassenAmateur Baseball Association. Hewas involved with the organiza-tion between 1985 and 1995, andwould have had access to numer-ous young people during that
time, policesaid.
Investigatorsput out arequest askingfor others whofelt they were
victims of sexual assault at thehands of Glendinning to comeforward. As a result, two morealleged victims were identified.
Brooks said the alleged victims,both male and female, were in theelementary to high school age.
Glendinning was arrested with-out incident on Wednesday.
A publication ban is in placeto protect the identities of thevictims.
Delta police and ICBCwere out on the streets thisweek targeting speeders inan effort to drive home themessage that drivers needchange their habits alongwith the weather conditions.
Delta police and com-munity police station SpeedWatch volunteers set upin two locations Tuesdaymorning — in the 600-block of 56th Street inTsawwassen and at KittsonParkway and Highway 91 inNorth Delta.
In Tsawwassen, volun-teers were set up just past aposted speed limit sign witha speed reader board. Theymade note of each car thatdrove by and whether thevehicle was traveling under,at or over the posted speedlimit.
A couple blocks up thestreet, Delta police officershad their radar guns outready to stop speeders.
The idea, said spokesper-son Sgt. Sharlene Brooks,is to prompt drivers to slowdown by showing how fastthey’re traveling. Thosewho continue to speed afterpassing the posted sign and
the reader board are pulledover and issued a ticket.
A/Sgt. Lisa Coupar saidthat location was chosenbecause the department hasreceived complaints fromresidents about driversspeeding up the hill.
Volunteers and officerswere set up at the NorthDelta location at the sametime.
In 90 minutes, a total of430 vehicles passed throughthe two speed traps. Of that,45 were traveling 10 km/hover the posted speed limitand eight were going 20km/h over the legal limit.Eight continued speedingand were given tickets.
ICBC partners withpolice departments aroundthe province at this time ofyear to remind drivers toslow down as the weatherchanges.
“Wet road conditionsare a main factor of speed-related crashes in theLower Mainland,” said JonSchubert, ICBC’s presidentand CEO. “Unfortunately,many drivers don’t adjusttheir speed and recognizethat the posted speed limitis only for ideal or dry roadconditions.”
Sometimes, rain and
snow dictate the need todrive slower than the postedlimit.
“Even maintaining theposted speed limit can betoo fast for the road condi-tions,” Brooks said.
Road safety co-ordinatorJacki Tokaryk had a fewsuggestions for drivers asthe Lower Mainland getsready for winter: slow downand drive for the conditions;give yourself more traveltime; keep a safe distancefrom the car in front of you.
Metro Vancouver munici-pal politicians are con-tinuing to push for longercouncil terms despite beingblocked at the Union ofB.C. Municipalities.
The Metro Vancouverboard of directors voted infavour last week of a rec-
ommendation by its inter-governmental committee toask the provincial govern-ment to adopt four-yearterms for councils.
The committee citedseveral reasons, includingextended terms benefit-ing taxpayers by “provid-ing more stability, savingsignificant tax dollars byhaving fewer elections and
ensuring greater focus onsound planning.”
Extending terms fromthree to four years wouldalso “provide new council-lors the ability to settle intotheir roles and responsi-bilities and allow them toimplement their visions andachieve their goals.”
Also in favour of thelonger terms, board chair
and Delta Mayor LoisJackson said almost allLower Mainland representa-tives on the regional districtsupport the longer terms,unlike civic politicians fromsmaller rural communitiesin the province.
“Hopefully people willget to know their represen-tatives a little better ratherthan changing frequently.
There’s a whole host of rea-sons ... The rural areas ofBritish Columbia said therewere too many old peopleand some real incrediblereasons why we should notgo to the four-year term,”said Jackson.
“Nonetheless, we havegone forward as MetroVancouver, who has overhalf the population.”
Opponents have arguedlonger terms are a barrier toparticipation and may endup leading to more by-elec-tions.
A motion to extend termsto four years was defeatedat the UBCM annual meet-ing in September primarilydue to strong oppositionfrom smaller rural commu-nities.
Here are some drivingtips from ICBC:
• Follow other vehiclesat a safe distance. Allow atleast two seconds of fol-lowing distance in goodweather and road condi-tions and at least three sec-onds on a highway.
• Slow down on wetroads, in bad weather con-ditions or on uneven roads.
Increase your followingdistance to at least fourseconds.
• Increase your follow-ing distance when you’rebehind a large vehicle thatcould block your vision,or a motorcycle that couldstop very quickly.
• If a collision seemsunavoidable, steer to theright. Head towards the
least harmful option, pref-erably an object that willgive away on impact, suchas a bush. The most harm-ful option is a head-oncollision where the force isdoubled.
• Don’t speed up assomeone is trying to passyou — it’s illegal. Help theother drivers get back intoyour lane by slowing down
and making room.• Be realistic about your
travel time. Allow time forpossible delays because oftraffic, construction or badweather.
• If you’re going to belater than you expected— deal with it. Take a deepbreath and accept the delay.Like they say, better latethan never.
Even speed limitcan be too fastPolice department joins forces with ICBC to impresson drivers to pay close attention to road conditions

Wednesday was thethird annual NationalDay of Remembrance forRoad Crash Victims, andthe BCAA Traffic SafetyFoundation marked theday by remembering AlexaMiddelaer.
The day has been setaside to remember thosekilled or seriously injuredon Canadian roads andthose left to deal with thesudden and unexpected lossof a loved one.
Four-year-old AlexaMiddelaer was killed andher aunt, Daphne Johanson,was seriously injured afterbeing hit by an impaireddriver as they were feedinga horse on the side of theroad in East Ladner in May2008.
Carol Berner was con-victed of impaired drivingcausing death and bodilyharm and dangerous drivingcausing death and bodilyharm last summer and lastweek was sentenced to two-and-a-half years in jail. Herconviction and sentence are
currently under appeal.“Impaired drivers are
killing an average of twopeople and injuring 60every week in B.C.,” saidAllan Lamb, executivedirector of the BCAATraffic Safety Foundation.
“This is a statistic thathas not changed signifi-cantly in the past five yearsand is not surprising whenone in five people in ourprovince admits to drivingafter drinking.”
Crashes related toimpaired driving kill 133people and cause more than3,000 injuries on averageevery year. Traffic crashescost the B.C. economy$8.8 billion annually andimpaired drivers cost theprovince more than $1.6billion every year.
Shortly after Alexa’sdeath, the BCAA TrafficSafety Foundation partneredwith her parents, Laurel andMichael Middelaer, in theirfight to change the lawsand social attitudes aroundimpaired driving.
The foundation estab-lished the Alexa MiddelaerMemorial Fund. Donations
to the fund are used to edu-cate communities and indi-viduals about the dangers ofimpaired driving.
The Middelaers alsoworked with the founda-tion to create Alexa’s Team,which recognizes policeofficers from around theprovince who are workingto take impaired drivers offthe road.
Since 2009, 175 officersthat removed more than8,000 impaired driversfrom B.C.’s roads have beennamed to Alexa’s Team.

Sundance Pub patronsand volunteers, representedby Delta Citizen of the Yearfinalists and pub proprietorsAl and Phyllis Wawryk,donated a cheque to B.C.Guide Dog Services for$4,000 earlier this month.
The mood was festive aspatrons cheered and clappedat the cheque presentation.At least half a dozen pup-pies-in-training had broughttheir puppy raisers along forthe special occasion.
This most recent dona-tion, while fantastic all byitself, brings the total theSundance Pub has raisedto over $40,000 since2003, when it started hold-ing weekly meat draws tobenefit B.C. Guide DogServices.
“This is just amaz-ing, just wonderful,” saidWilliam Thornton, CEO ofB.C. Guide Dog Services.“These fundraising effortshave made such a signifi-cant difference to our orga-nization.”
“It’s the customers; real-ly, we’re just facilitators,”said Al Wawryk. “Our cus-tomers are very generous tothe cause.”
“Volunteers run it, cus-tomers support it and wejust provide the venue,”explained Phyllis Wawryk.“Our patrons know this isfor a very good cause, andit gives them a sense of‘doing good’ in the com-munity.
“We take a very hands-off approach. If we didn’thave our volunteers,Sinnika and Sari, who
run the whole thing, wewouldn’t be able to do this.Even our staff support thiscause.”
Staff often drop some oftheir tips into a marked coincan set out to collect loosechange to add to the dona-tion.
The money is used tobreed, train and place pro-fessional guide dogs withblind and visually-impairedpeople. B.C. Guide DogServices has placed 82guide dogs since 1996.
Sundance Pub patrons,staff, volunteers and propri-etors have helped give free-dom and independence tosomeone like recent gradu-ate, Mark Hicks.
“Liberating,” is the firstword Hicks says about howhe feels about receiving hisnew guide dog, Leamy.
“I feel empowered, I havemy dignity back. I no lon-ger have to wait for some-one to take me to the phar-macy, or the barbershop, oreven out for a coffee. I’mvery good with a cane, butit’s such slow going, andit can even be scary whenunexpected obstacles getin the way or I get turnedaround.
“Now with Leamy toguide me, I’m even gettingexcited about going back towork.”
The Sundance Pub meatdraw is held most Fridaynights, except for a fewnights off during the year,starting at 4 p.m. and run-ning to about 7 p.m. TheSundance Pub is at 6574Ladner Trunk Rd.

For the past 10 years I have used TJ's Refrigeration &
Appliances of Ladner to maintain my appliances. After
years of searching for a trustworthy mechanic shop,
I was thrilled to discover that TJ and his wife, Shirley
purchased South Delta Motors Ltd. in Tsawwassen last
June. Although I live in North Delta, I am happy to make
the drive out to Tsawwassen, to a shop that is friendly,
treats me with respect, and I know that I can trust. Being
a single Mom it is important to me to know that they care
not only about helping me maintain my vehicle, but also
about keeping my young daughter and I safe.
I would recommend South Delta Motors Ltd. to anyone
who desires reliable and honest service. There I have
peace of mind and can rest assured that I am totally
looked after.

“You were so brave. Anabsolute inspiration,” postedLiz Farquharson.
Donna White, provin-cial director of the TerryFox Foundation for B.C.and the Yukon, posted amessage on the Terry FoxFoundation website that
said Mattersdorfer personi-fied beauty, grace, giving,love and courage.

What kind of message are we sending?Last week began with Solicitor
General Rich Coleman musing aboutstrict new drinking driving laws being,well, too strict and ended with CarolBerner receiving all of a 30-month sen-tence for killing a child while she wasimpaired behind the wheel.
It seems to me that both the legislationenacted by our governments and the sen-tences handed down by our courts shouldsend the proper message. When it comesto drinking and driving, however, that’snot happening.
The judge in the Berner case calledimpaired driving causing death “one ofthe most serious offences in the CriminalCode,” yet only imposed a two-and-a-half-year sentence. I’m not blamingthe judge, who did an admirable jobduring the trial and was handcuffed byprecedents in case law when meting outpunishment, but something doesn’t addup here.
A four-year-old is killed, her auntis seriously injured and an entire fam-ily suffers an unfathomable loss yet wedeem the offence that caused such calam-ity worthy of just 30 months in prison.Call me guilty of throw-away-the-keythinking, but that’s simply not adequate.
I’m not suggesting Berner is some sortof monster because that’s clearly not thecase, but a 30-month sentence (and she’llbe out long before that with good behav-iour, I presume) suggests drinking anddriving is far from one of the most seri-ous offences in the Criminal Code.
Speaking of sending the wrong mes-sage, the new drunk driving laws,trumpeted by Victoria as the toughest inall of the land when introduced earlierthis year, have been, get this, changingpeople’s behaviour. They’ve had such animpact it’s got some people worried.
There’s a concern among those placesthat serve liquor that patrons aren’tdrinking as much, or not at all, becausethey have to drive themselves home. Thisdevelopment is hurting business and haspoliticians suggesting police are perhapsbeing too vigilant in their interpretationand enforcement of the new laws.
Does that mean we want people tohave one more before they hit the road?Are we being too cautious? Is that such abad thing?
The bottom line for me is thatalthough we talk a good game when itcomes to impaired driving, we fail towalk the walk. The new laws provideda glimpse into a future where if we’rewilling to take strong, decisive action,the public will fall into line. In the mean-time, we must live with the consequencesof our inaction.

The U.S. mid-term elections arenow over, after hundreds of mil-lions of dollars have been spent oncampaigns. It looks like the debatesin Washington will be fierce, andcompromises few and far between.Recovery from the recession in theU.S. may be painful and lengthy.Why should that be of interest toyou?
The U.S. and Canadian econo-mies are closely linked throughtrade and many forms of invest-ment. Many of you work for firmsthat trade (buy, sell) with the U.S.Others drive cars and trucks whoseparts and technology are linked tothe U.S. Many have investmentsthat are linked by way of currencyor business to the U.S. and to itsworldwide reach.
While our Canadian economyseems OK, the U.S. has someserious problems yet to resolve.
Whether you look at unemploy-ment approaching 10 per cent,massive federal and state deficits,an incredible national debt, orthe lack of growth, there are fewhealthy signs.
Over three million U.S. hom-eowners are behind in their mort-gage payments. House reposses-sions this year will total over onemillion, many of which are tied upin courts due to faulty ownershipdeclarations. It will take a consid-erable time and lots more money tountangle the mess.
Meanwhile, over 20 per cent ofall homes with mortgages in theU.S. have negative equity — mean-ing the current house value is lessthan the mortgage. Under this con-dition, and different from Canada,they can just walk away, and mailthe keys back to the bank.
The U.S. government has issuedtrillions of dollars so far to stimu-late the economy in order to endthe recession, and it is not back ontrack so far. The U.S. is now doinga second round “injection.”
In the U.S. Congress and Senate,major confrontations are likely asthe opposing parties argue aboutwhether and how to stimulate theeconomy. The Republicans, withtheir new majority, have committed
to stop much of the current effort.So, no clear strategy to stimulatethe economy, and in any case along way to go. In this very bipar-tisan atmosphere, many believethe recession will remain for quitesome time.
Canada and B.C. are getting aspillover effect — low inflation, aslow increase in our economy anda slow recovery of jobs from ourunemployment rate of 7.5 per cent.For those who are unemployed, it’staking longer to find work whileemployment insurance runs out andsavings dwindle. Many others havefewer hours available in which toearn an income.
This scenario argues againstmunicipal taxes increasing beyondthe four per cent already taken forthis year, and restraining TransLinkand Metro Vancouver from lookingfor more money for 2011. Deductthe extra you now pay to the HST,and many of us have a reducedstandard of living.
To top it all off, the promisedincome tax reduction has just beentaken off the table.
It’s time for a “time out” ontaxes. It’s time for local govern-ments to hold the line — no taxincreases — for a year or so untilthings get back on track.
Hold the line on taxes untileconomy is back on track

Letters to the Editor
Editor:Over seven years ago
when Olav Naas and I cameup with the Hoover/Naasproposal, we always firmlybelieved the one thing thatwould definitely stop theSouth Fraser PerimeterRoad being built along itsoriginal design route wasBurns Bog.
Naas had done majorwork in the bog and wewere sure the engineeringdifficulty, cost and irrevers-ible environmental damagethe SFPR would createwould preclude it frombeing built in that locationnorth of the bog.
After all, even theRomans knew enough notto build a road through aswamp!
Well, we underestimatedthe ability of the Liberalgovernment to go beyondall reason and commonsense, so the SFPR is under
construction as originallyplanned.
One of the best things tocome from my experiencewith Hoover/Naas was tomeet Eliza Olson and herhusband Wally. These twomarvelous individuals havegiven decades of their livestowards saving Burns Bogand teaching thousandsabout the importance of thebog to Delta and the entireLower Mainland.
In order to critique theSFPR I had to educatemyself on the bog, how itlives, what harms it, and themultitude of good things itdoes for plant and animallife around it. Burns Bogis the lungs of the LowerMainland, and is the largestconsumer of carbon dioxideon the west coast of B.C.
Olson has worked tire-lessly to defend and pro-mote the bog, and hasreceived numerous awards
for her efforts. But rightnow she is among the 10finalists to qualify for anaward from the CBC as“Canada’s Champion OfChange,” as chosen fromhundreds of submissions.
For all the people whoreceive this newspaper thisis a tremendous opportu-nity. Not only do you havethe ability to vote for thishonour to be bestowed onone of the hardest workingvolunteers that Delta hasever had, but you also havethe opportunity to turn aspotlight through the CBC,and maybe even interna-tionally, on the very realpossibility the SFPR mightdo everlasting damage toBurns Bog.
I respectfully requestyou and your family go tothe CBC website at www.cbc.ca/change/vote2.htmland each place a vote forOlson. There is no question
she deserves the recogni-tion, and the opportunity toshow all of Canada the follyof the SFPR the CampbellLiberal government hasdropped on Delta wouldsimply be a bonus, and helpOlson in her continuingefforts to preserve BurnsBog for future generations.
Please tell your friendsabout this; vote early andvote often!

Editor:Re: Show compassion
for woman who must livewith crash, letter to the
editor Nov. 17I think Peter Jensen
needs to read the defini-tion of compassion. Iwonder if Carol Bernerwould give the parents ofAlexa Middelaer the same“compassion” if they wereresponsible for killing oneof her children by drivingcarelessly.
I was severely injured inan accident. I was a pedes-trian in a crosswalk andI was hit at 55 km/h (60km/h is usually fatal) by adriver not paying attention.I was lucky, I survived.
I think we shouldremember little Alexa willnever go thorough gradu-ation, her teens, get mar-ried, have children, thingswe all take for granted,thanks to yet another driv-
er not paying attention.I know whatever sen-
tence carried out onBerner will not bringAlexa back, but she mustbe held responsible fortaking a life, or is respon-sibility a four-letter wordnow? Alexa’s parents getto visit a grave on herbirthdays. Is 2.5 years sucha hardship to Berner?
It astounds me howsome drivers do not real-ize the vehicles they aredriving are weapons whendriven without due careand attention, and whensomething terrible hap-pens, do not want to takeresponsibility for theiractions.
Come on people, standup and be accountable foryour actions, and give thecompassion where it is due.... to the parents of a deadfour-year-old.

Editor:Re: Sentence limited by ‘imperfect system,’ Nov. 17
As the mother of a beautiful, bright young lady, Dr.Shelley Anne Martin, who was killed by an impaired driverthree years ago, I, too, think it is terrible that Carol Bernerreceived such a light sentence and that she has the nerve toappeal it.
Our whole justice system smells in regards to those whoare impaired and kill or seriously injure others. We have toget stiffer sentences for the sake of the victims and excel-lent articles such as this keep the public aware.

Editor:Re: Delta must meet
Metro quota, letter to theeditor, Nov. 10
Thanks to Ed Ries forhis explanations about thepopulation growth predic-tions that are contained inthe new Metro RegionalGrowth Strategy bylaw.
He points out that Deltacouncil seemed to thinkthat Delta’s “fair share”should be concentrated inTsawwassen.
The Metro bylaw, nowup for public hearing,shows a guesstimate thatDelta will grow by 6,000units by 2021. This breaksdown to about 1,500 unitsfor Tsawwassen based onexisting population propor-tions between North Delta,Ladner and Tsawwassen.This would give about4,000 new residents inTsawwassen for a growthrate of two per cent perannum.
However, the bylaw alsoguesses the growth rate forthe whole of Delta by 2041would be an overall 13,300units.
Tsawwassen’s share ofthis would be about 3,325units. This would give about8,850 new residents inTsawwassen over 30 yearsfor a growth rate of 1.5 percent.
We have all heard of“lies, damned lies, and sta-tistics” so it’s worth remem-
bering the guesses in theRegional Growth Strategyare planners’ predictions,nothing more. What willactually happen is in thelap of the gods ... There isnothing that demands thedestruction our communitythough.
One hopes that a newTsawwassen Area Planbylaw, as promised byCoun. Bruce McDonald,will reflect reality.

South Delta Secondarydrama students arebusy preparing for the
school’s annual one-act playfestival that’s set to beginlater this month.
They’re not only actingin the plays but directingthem as well.
“The kids have a massiveamount of ownership overwhat they’re doing, whichis of course the objective ofthe student directed one-actfestival,” says SDSS dramateacher Paige Hansen. “It’sa constant hive of activ-ity from three until seveno’clock in here. It’s justcrazy.”
The one-act line up con-sists mostly of comedies.
“I find the studentstend to gravitate towardscomedies and they tendto do a really good job ofthem,” says Hansen. “Inthe rehearsal process, a lotof improvisation is done. Ithink teenagers are naturalimprovisers. I think theyend up adding to theirplays. They bring a lot oftheir own humour to thework that the playwright’salready given them.”
The classic children’sstory The Lion, the Witchand the Wardrobe will alsobe staged as part of thefestival.
“It’s the classic C.S.Lewis story. If you loved
the story, you’ll lovethe play,” says JacobWolstencroft, who alongwith fellow Grade 12 stu-dent Hannah Vaartnou isco-directing the play.
Wolstencroft says thecast of 22 is devoted to the
production.“They have been really
good at taking on theirown leadership in theirown parts. It’s really cometogether,” he says.
Vaartnou notes a couplechallenges include the
larger cast size and direct-ing her peers.
“It’s a bit more of achallenge bridging the gapbetween being a friend andbeing a director,” she says.
Jemma Dash, a Grade 11who’s at the helm of a com-
edy called 1-900-Desperate,is enjoying the directingexperience.
“It’s my first time direct-ing and I know that I haveto do it next year becauseit’s been such a good expe-rience. It’s nice to be in
charge for once. It’s reallycool.”
Beau Bridge, who’s inGrade 12, is directing TheLast Dance, a drama abouta girl who owns a rundownold dance studio she inher-ited from her parents. He’salso playing the only othercharacter in the play.
“Sometimes it can bereally conflicting becausebeing on the stage, it’s hardto be able to look at it andsee how it is. But also itbenefits you because itgives you a feeling of thecharacter,” he says.
Bridge says the festival’slineup is “really entertain-ing.”
“They’re directed by thestudents so the whole com-munity gets to see how thestudents are doing with itand see what they can do.People generally leave witha smile on their face.”
The one-act festivalruns Tuesday, Nov. 30,Wednesday, Dec. 1 andFriday, Dec. 3 at 7 p.m.There are two matinees,one on Nov. 30 at noon andanother on Dec. 3 (which issold out).
Evening tickets cost $8each or $16 for all threenights. Matinee tickets are$2.
The box office phonenumber is 604-943-7532.
Former Delta secondarydrama teacher Janet Worrallwill be adjudicating theplays.
Drama studentsat SouthpointeAcademy will
be taking a shot at someShakespeare next week.
They’re set to stage TheComedy of Errors at theTsawwassen Arts Centre onNov. 25, 26 and 27.
“I just wanted them tounderstand Shakespearewas a little more accessible
than it may seem than whenthey read it in English class.I thought the experiencewould be good for themfrom that point of view,”says new Southpointedrama teacher Greg Kean.
The cast is comprisedof students from grades 9through 12.
The Comedy of Errors isone of Shakespeare’s earli-est plays and is really, reallyfunny, Kean says.
“It’s about two sets of
twins who are separated atbirth. They stumble into thesame place at the same timeand are mistaken for eachother for the entire play.”
While originally set inEphesus, the Southpointeproduction will take placein 1940s era New Orleans.
Kean, a longtime pro-fessional actor, says he’slooking to provide the com-munity with theatrical expe-riences that are worthwhile,fun, thought-provoking
and entertaining while atSouthpointe.
Kean, who has anadvanced degree in theatrefrom Cornell University,was a department head atthe Vancouver Institute ofMedia Arts for the past fewyears.
He was a regular on theTV show Dead Like Me.
The Comedy of Errorswill be staged at 7:30 p.m.each night. Tickets cost$10; $5 for seniors.

Tips and toolsfor losing weight
When people askme what tips Ihave for about
losing weight, I have a shortand simple reply for them— eat less and move more.I’m not trying to be cheeky,I’m just trying to convey tothem there are no “secrets”or quick fixes to weightloss. A successful weightloss program consists of
good ol’ fashioned calorierestriction, with lots ofexercise.
Just recently I saw thesesame principles at work,yet again, for a number ofpeople in my Weight LossChallenge. Each of the topthree used the motto of“eating less and movingmore” and lost betweeneight and 11 per cent oftheir total body weightwithin a six-week timeframe.
Our winner, Brad Smith,lost a whopping 11.49 percent of his body weightand attributed a lot of hissuccess to food journal-ing. He used the websitewww.fitday.com, which isa great weight loss tool thatallows you to log your foodand exercise for the day tokeep track of your caloriestaken in, as well as caloriesburned with exercise.
Food journaling alsohelped educate Smith aboutthe value of a calorie. Priorto the challenge he did nothave a clue what a side ofnachos, a few beers and abag of peanuts at a foot-ball game would cost himaround the waistline. Oncehe realized he was eat-ing a jaw-dropping 3,000calories, he quickly madethe required adjustmentsto support his weight lossgoals.
Our second place winner,Norm Safry, used calorierestriction as well as walk-ing as his weight loss tools.Regardless of how he felt,he forced himself to get onhis treadmill everyday. Headmits that at first he foundit challenging and couldonly complete 40 minutesa session, but by the end ofthe six weeks he was walk-ing for an hour straight ata steep incline, and some-times doing this twice aday.
Safry also feels that hav-ing a strong support systemhelped him lose the weight.His wife joined him on hisweight loss journey andhis doctor encouraged himthroughout.
Our third place win-ner, Sandi Holliday, addedweight training to herregime to help her lose theweight and started pack-ing her own food when shetravels.
Anyone who has dietedbefore knows that eatingin restaurants can be chal-lenging. It is tough to havethe willpower to choose theright meals on the menu,and when you do choosethose items you still do nothave control over how muchsodium is in them, whetherthe vegetables are fresh,how much oil was used, etc.Lucky for Holliday, pack-ing her own meals was anoption, and she plannedahead and was ready.
Other tools participantsused to help them with theirweight loss were:
• Drank more water.Water is crucial to anyweight loss program. Thestomach cannot differentiatebetween hunger and thirst.Next time you feel “hun-gry” try a glass of waterand then wait about 20 min-utes before eating. You mayfind that you really don’tneed food.
• One of them had atarget outfit and an upcom-ing trip that helped to keepthem motivated. I recom-mend hanging your targetoutfit somewhere whereyou can see it.
• Walking after dinner.Each of the participantswalked after dinner. Thisnot only helped them toburn some extra calories, italso aided in digesting theirmeals.
• Increased their intakeof fruit and vegetables andthey all limited their intakeof breads, pastas, rice, sodi-um and white flour.
• And, finally, I recom-mend rewarding yourselfwhen you have a reacheda milestone in your weightloss journey.

South Delta Rams Thomas Franklin heads up field during last Sunday’s Vancouver Mainland Football League semi-final playoff gameagainst the Langley Outlaws at Dennison Park. The Rams’ saw their post-season drive come to an end after a 36-14 loss. Two otherlocal teams remain in the VMFL title hunt. The Pee Wee Rams defeated Richmond 21-0 in their quarter-final game and will faceCloverdale on Sunday. The Bantam Rams also advanced to the final four where they will meet Langley after blanking Westside 34-0.
Devils settle for 5th after heartbreaking lossSenior girls field hockey team don’t lose a game in regulation time at provincials but still fall in penalty strokes
It’s considered the prover-bial hump game of the provincial“AAA” girls field hockey cham-pionships and this time it cost theSouth Delta Sun Devils a chance towin their first-ever gold medal.
Despite not losing a single gamein regulation time, the province’ssecond ranked squad could dono better than a fifth place finishat last week’s 16-team event inVictoria.
The script unfolded accordinglyin round-robin play as the SunDevils rolled past Eric Hamber andGlen Eagle by 5-0 scores, then ral-lied for a 3-2 win over Oak Bay.
The first place finish in pool playset-up a quarter-final match-upwith West Vancouver and the win-ner was guaranteed to be playingfor a medal.
South Delta controlled much ofthe play but it was the Highlanderswho opened the scoring with justthree minutes remaining. TheDevils dug deep and potted theequalizer with 90 seconds to goand had all the momentum headinginto sudden-death overtime. Theyfailed to capitalize on numerouschances and the game went to pen-alty strokes where the Highlandersprevailed.
“In sudden death we were allover (them) but could not get thefinal touch,” said South Deltacoach Neil McLennan. “It was oneof those ugly sporting moments ...sometimes you lose a game eventhough you outplayed the opposi-tion. The girls know though thatthey had played really well.
“The umpire also called backa goal we scored for some reasonthat no one really figured out. Thatdecision cost us the game.”
The Devils rebounded fromthe heartbreaking loss to defeatHeritage Woods 2-0 in what was arematch of the Fraser Valley cham-
pionship game. They closed outthe tournament with an impressive4-1 over North Shore powerhouseHandsworth to secure fifth.
“The last game was very, verygood,” said McLennan. “The girlsplayed really well against a toughNorth Shore team so that was agreat way to end the season.”
The program’s longtime men-tor has always taken a low-keyapproach when it comes to histeams’ chances of contending for aB.C. title, despite this group featur-ing three national level players. Heinsists there are just far too manyintangibles that need to swing the
right way in a tournament formatthat sees a team play five gamesin three days. Instead, he looks atthe overall picture and that’s hisgirls becoming better players andpeople.
“The outcome may not havebeen exactly been what the girlswere striving for but they playedvery well every game, were neveroutworked and never lost their con-cept of ‘team’ both on or off thefield,” he said.
“These are excellent measuresof success as well and, in the grandscheme of things, are more impor-tant!
Tsawwassen forwardnamed to Team Pacific
Ryan Olsen will bespending the holiday sea-son getting his first taste ofinternational hockey.

Golden effort inRichmond forU16 Footmen
The Delta Footmen U16 tier one field lacrosse teamshowed exactly what its potential is at last weekend’sRoadrunner Romp Tournament in Richmond.
The locals produced five straight wins to take home thegold medal, including an impressive result against the hostteam in the championship games.
Delta had little trouble in its opening games againstlower tiered opponents — defeating Coquitlam 15-0 and acombined squad from New West and Seattle, 14-1.
It would be a much sterner test in their final round gameagainst Ridge Meadows — a team that sat fifth in theleague standings, compared to the Footmen’s ninth posi-tion. However, they rose to the challenge and produced a14-6 win to secure top spot in their group.
A semi-final tilt with Seattle proved to be a thriller asthe American squad pulled even with just a minute remain-ing. With what can be described as nothing more than a de-termined press by the Footmen, Delta’s Taylor Northwayscored with only seven seconds left on the clock to win thegame to move his team into the finals against Richmond.
Having lost 13-8 to the Roadrunners in regular leagueplay less than two weeks ago, the team pulled together andhandily defeated the hosts 14-5.
Spencer Achtymichuk, Lucas Pereira, Taylor Northway,Jon Phillips, and Ben Wagner were terrific in midfield,while Stephen Alexander, Jeff Mellis and Tanner Taylor ledthe way on the attack. The defensive line of ScottMcQuarrie, Will Schwan, Evan Messenger, Jordan Quitzauand Matt Keith held Richmond’s attack back from the goal,where Denis Clarke played an outstanding game.
Missing the two playoff games due to a prior commit-ment was Ryan Anderson and out on injury was JustinLeclair.
Coaches Shawn Williams and Mike Vincent were notonly thrilled with the outcome of the game and tourna-ment, but more importantly how this could be the turningpoint for the team after a shaky start. They hope to keepthe momentum going in league play.
Game MVP’s through the tournament wereAchtymichuk, Phillips, Alexander, Northway and Clarke,in the championship game.
Lacrosse team upsets league rivalsen route to 1st place finish at tourney
The Delta Ice Hawks and Richmond Sockeyes are head-ed on another mid-season collision course.
Despite owning the top record in the PacificInternational Junior Hockey League (17-3-2) and riding aneight-game win streak, including a 4-2 triumph over theRidge Meadows Flames on Tuesday night, the Ice Hawkscan’t shake their cross-river rivals. The Sockeyes have beenequally as impressive with a 16-3-3 record and enter theweekend trailing Delta by just a single point.
The teams will meet for the third time this season nextThursday at Minoru Arena (7:30 p.m.) and if the earliergames are any indication, it should be another night ofdrama. The Sockeyes erased a 4-1 third period deficit towin the first meeting 5-4 in a penalty shootout. The returnmatch-up in Ladner also went to a shootout with the IceHawks prevailing in the ninth round.
Both teams also need to worry about the North DeltaDevils (16-6-1) who are also very much in the first placemix in the PIJHL’s Tom Shaw Conference.
Rookie Aaron Merrick scored one goal and set-up anoth-er to lead the Ice Hawks past the Flames.
The hosts never trailed in the contest — opening up 2-0and 3-1 leads. Kye Benjaminsen, John Proctor and KodyBotterill had the other goals, while Nick Enegren was solidin net, turning aside 28 shots.
The Ice Hawks visit the Mission Icebreakers on Sundayand return home Tuesday to host the Grandview Steelers at7:30 p.m.

South Delta Pee Wee A1 Storm avengedits only loss in dramatic fashion to capturelast weekend’s Gil Martin Pee Wee AAAMemorial Tournament in Langley.
The local rep hockey team stumbled outof the gate in its opening round-robin game,falling 7-1 to the Abbotsford A1 Hawks. TheStorm started to find their legs and rebound-ed with a 3-0 win over the Cloverdale A1Colts.
The momentum continued as the Stormoverwhelmed the Comox Valley Chiefs10-1. They were expecting a tough test intheir final preliminary game against theChilliwack AAA Bruins who were fresh offa 3-3 tie against the unbeaten Hawks.
South Delta was ready for the challenge— producing a 5-0 win to lock up secondplace in their pool and set-p a semi-finalgame against the Kelowna Rockets.
South Delta came out hard and played
a physical game and with a solid perfor-mance in net from Brenn Traher, doubled theRockets 4-2.
The result set the stage for a rematch withAbbotsford and, this time, the Storm werewell-prepared.
The teams exchanged second period goalswith Cavin Tilsley converting a feed fromBeck Malenstyn for the South Delta goal.Abbotsford was nursing a 2-1 third periodlead when Nick Wicks got the puck back tothe point where blueliner Riley Hayles wiredhome the equalizer with 3:41 remaining.
A five-minute four-on-four overtime ses-sion couldn’t determine a winner and neithercould the initial five rounds of the shootout.Hayles then broke the deadlock when hisshot found its way through the 5-hole to givehis team the advantage. Goaltender JeremyKelleway then came up with a huge stop tosecure the gold medal.

Aries March 21 - April 19: A month of mellowunderstanding, gentle love, intellectual pursuits,legal, travel, cultural and religious involvementsbegins Monday morning. As your planet (Mars) is inthis same area until early December, the first twoweeks of this period will be intense, memorableand “high stakes.” You could fall in love, engage ina major lawsuit, travel afar – something unusual, aonce-in-a-decade thing. Be honest, true-hearted; ifyou are not, the rest of December, into January, couldbring retribution from higher-ups. Someone is readyfor love with you. You’re romantic, Friday/Saturday!Taurus April 20-May 20: The weeks aheadaccent depths, mysteries, investments and debts,lust, lifestyle changes, health diagnosis and cures.Your subconscious desires swell to the surface. Abig decision or commitment might be demanded ofyou. For the next two weeks, these matters are moreintense, more “impatient” than usual – and mightalso have more “strings attached” than is healthy. Becautious, don’t be rushed into a situation or promise.Chase money Sunday to Tuesday – luck’s mixed, sobe alert. Errands, paperwork, casual friends frustrateWednesday, succeed Thursday. Home, family Fridayonward.Gemini May 21-June 20: Drudgery ends, freshhorizons blow in, now to late December. A “quiet”relationship might take off like a rocket, or a newone begin. Links, confrontations, opportunities,challenges, competition, enmity, attraction – all growintense. But in all the intensity, even in enmity, thereis a definite streak of friendship, buoyancy and hope.A mingling effect can occur – e.g., love/hate, oryou might become “best enemies.” Relocation andbusiness/fame opportunities arise. Maturity, flexibility,diplomacy and an eagerness to join are your successtools. You’re energetic, charming this week!
Cancer June 21-July 22: Work and health issuesloom large for the next four weeks. These are mostintense to Dec. 7, as work swells and the stakesrise in your reputation and career zones. A workingpartnership might be volatile, but if you can keeptempers level, a splendid success is possible.Rest, withdraw to plan and contemplate Sunday toTuesday eve. Midweek, your energy and charismastep up a notch – start projects, tasks. Chasemoney, or spend, Friday/Saturday. This month aheadwill favour machinery. This week, buy it Friday,but watch for electrical/tech faults. Romance?Next week.Leo July 23-Aug. 22: The weeks ahead offerromance, pleasure, beauty, creative surges andspeculative urges.This is your time to accent your owndesires, to take a chance on your talents – to expandand express yourself! A semi-romantic relationshipcould take off with fireworks the first two weeks, or anew, intense romance could spark. However, neitherof these is likely to emerge into a stable marriage.You might wed, swiftly and impulsively, but createhuge tensions as a result. Be patient. 2011 is yourtime. Your hopes, popularity soar early week. Rest,midweek. You shine, Friday/Saturday!Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: Home, children, diet,nutrition, Mother Nature, gardening, parks, rest,hibernation, security, real estate – these form your“best world” for the month ahead. You might invest inproperty, or renovate or improve your present abode,especially over the immediate two weeks ahead.That’s good, BUT be aware of two “unforeseens”– 1) an unpredictable reaction by your mate, and/or2) electrical issues. Make sure both are “settled”before you begin. You’ve had a bit of a wild ride inrelationships over the last seven years. Decide nowwith whom you’ll go to the future.
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: The weeks aheadfeature travel, paperwork, errands, details, casualacquaintances and siblings, and communications.Usually this would be a fine time to buy phones,computers, etc. – but lemons lurk until Dec. 7 (andto some degree until March 2011) so delay suchpurchases if you can. As in the last few weeks, youmight meet a “viable” potential mate while travellingor talking. But here, too, glitches exist – long-termtension and/or an unpredictable relationship. Patience,Libra – real love’s coming! Enjoyment, happinessabound this week! Be ambitious Thursday (morningbest).Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: The month aheademphasizesmoney,possessions,sensual involvementsand memory or rote learning. (This is always your best30 days of the year to memorize anything – vocabulary,foreign languages, math techniques, etc.) Sensual= anything from good drapes, beautiful paintings, tosomeone’s closeness. Buy/sell, seek new clients, askfor a pay raise. BUT in all this, go slow before Dec. 8,as pitfalls exist. E.g., you might get too sensual andalienate a romantic prospect, or push too fast for a payraise and spark tension. Love, legal, intellectual, travelsuccess Thursday!Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Your energy, charismaand effectiveness rise now through December! Yoursexual magnetism, determination and “wilfulness”have already grown over the last few weeks – nowthese increase also. Start new projects, ask favours,see and be seen, attend “in person,” get your way,negotiate – you’re in charge! But, especially untilDec. 7, don’t recklessly overpower other’s needs,desires and sensibilities, or you could create “invisiblerebellions” that erupt later, just when you need allies.This week’s happy. Financial, sexual luck soarsThursday! Love, wisdom Friday/Saturday.
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: Take a break. Duringthe four weeks ahead, rest, contemplate and plan.Your energy will ebb. Attend to government-relatedtasks, institutional and charitable involvements. Fulfilobligations, but don’t volunteer for new ones. Avoidthe spotlight. Avoid places where belligerent peoplegather – bars, dark alleys. Chores call Sunday toTuesday – get them done. Relationships face youTuesday eve through Thursday – be diplomatic, evenevasive before Thursday. True friends, real loves,show Thursday. Mysteries, big finances, lifestyledecisions come Friday/Saturday – good results!Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Friends, popularity, wishfulfilment, optimism, flirtation and happiness visit forthe next few weeks! You might face an unexpecteddilemma in which your money and your wishes don’tagree, and you might have to choose one. Pick thedream – maybe you can accomplish it for less. Youmight discover that the person you “possess” doesn’tmix well with your friends. Choose friends – but don’tlisten to friends’ advice about money. Romance,flirtation, pleasure, a risk-taking mood buoy youSunday to Tuesday. Tackle chores midweek. Excitingmeetings Friday/Saturday – forgo eccentricity.Pisces Feb.19-March20:Yourcareer,neighbourhoodprestige, relations with parents and bosses, areemphasized for the month ahead. I’ve already warnedyou that bosses are temperamental. That continuesto Dec. 7, so be diplomatic, good-humoured. Expectunexpected reactions, results! Hustle to performtasks, to meet deadlines. Bosses love eager screw-ups more than competent grouches. (In some fields,engineering, math, medicine, Pisces are truly favourednow.) Sink into “domestic rejuvenation” early week.Creative, romantic success Thursday. Tackle choresFriday/Saturday – practise safety Saturday.
