Premier Christy Clark unveiled the details of her jobs plan at a Vancouver Board of Trade luncheon yesterday, including a target to have eight new mines in operation in B.C. by 2015.
The B.C. Jobs Plan also promises an upgrade to the Deltaport shipping facility by 2014, in addition to improvements to the Prince Rupert bulk port announced earlier in the week. Clark committed $50 million to improve the railway link to the port near
the Tsawwassen ferry terminal, the fi rst stage of a $200 million Deltaport development.
Clark also announced an additional $24 million to fund mining, water and land permit approvals and reduce the backlog for permits by the end of next year. She said the increased effi ciency will not be at the expense of environmental regulations.
The commitment to add permit resources responds to one of the criticisms from NDP leader Adrian Dix.
“The premier has tried to blame regulations, environmentalists and aboriginal people,” Dix said. “They’ve actually taken away people who work on those approvals, and they need to address those issues rather than blaming others.”
The entire plan is available at a new government website, www.bcjobsplan.ca

TORONTO (Canadian Press)
Fears that a suffocating debt crisis could choke the life out of the world’s delicate economic recov-ery battered the world’s stock markets yesterday, sending the loonie plunging along with the price of oil, gold and other commodities.
The Canadian dollar tumbled more than two US cents yesterday to 97.33 cents US after going as low as 96.51 cents US – its lowest level in about a year – as a gloomy assessment of the American economy sent commodity prices reeling and currency trad-ers running to the safe haven status of the U.S. dollar.
The Toronto and New York stock markets also plunged nearly 400 points each at the close, con-tinuing the wave of volatility seen for the last two months.
“The probability of going back into recession is higher now than at any point in the recovery,” said Tim Quinlan, an economist at the Wells Fargo bank in the United States.
He put the odds of a so-called double-dip reces-sion – one economic downturn followed by another – at 35 per cent, the highest yet.
“I still think a double-dip recession for the world’s major economies is unlikely, but my con-fi dence in that belief is being eroded daily,” said World Bank president Robert Zoellick, warning that the world remained in a “danger zone.”
At the heart of the trouble is a crippling gov-ernment debt crisis in Europe that shows no sign of being settled and could sink the economies of Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal.

Province.Royal rep | Governor General David Johnston
and his wife Sharon make their fi rst offi cial visit to B.C. next week, starting on Monday in Victoria.
‘There is no opt-out’ —
NATALIE NORTH (Saanich News)
Smart Meters are on the way and everyone in the province will have one by the end of 2012, regardless of whether or not they post signs of protest, accord-ing to a B.C. Hydro representative.
“First and foremost, there is no opt-out,” said Gary Murphy, chief project offi cer for the smart meter pro-gram. “Every customer will get a smart meter.”
A customer does, however, have the option of con-tacting B.C. Hydro and relocating the meter elsewhere on their property at their own expense, he said.
“We’re saying opt out. They’re saying delay instal-lation,” said Sharon Noble, chairperson of Citizens Against Unsafe Emissions and co-ordinator of the national Wireless Radiation Safety Council.
Noble organized a rally at the Legislature Sept. 18
that drew more than 200 people asking the B.C. gov-ernment to impose a moratorium on the meters.
Armed with a petition of 4,000 signatures from B.C. residents opposed to the meters, Noble said the group is ready to fi ght the program any way they can.
B.C. Hydro has not yielded to any yard signs requesting to stop the replacement of analog meters, Murphy said. Yet signs affi xed directly to meters have resulted in B.C. Hydro contacting individual hom-eowners prior to the installation of Smart Meters.
“There’s a very small and vocal activist community out there that has been responsible for publishing a great deal of this information,” Murphy said, estimating the actual complaints lodged at B.C. Hydro to be around 100.
Customers with concerns over smart meters can contact B.C. Hydro at [email protected].
TRACY HOLMES (Peace Arch News)
Former Vancouver Police offi cer Peter Hodson has been sentenced to three years in a federal prison for selling marijuana while on duty.
The White Rock resident, 33, pleaded guilty to traffi cking mari-juana and two counts of breach of trust late last year, eight months after he was arrested at VPD’s Cambie Street headquarters.
Judge Gregory Rideout delivered the sentence – which includes three years of jail time, minus 21 days for time already served – in Vancouver Provincial Court yes-terday.
“Your remarkable fall from grace is a burden you will carry for the rest of your life,” Rideout told Hodson, noting the for-mer offi cer’s actions “left many victims,” including his family, friends, residents of the Down-town Eastside, Vancouver taxpayers and the VPD.
“The burden (the VPD) must now bear is that one of their own transgressed in such a shocking manner.”
Hodson, a father of four, was arrested April 21, 2010, following a two-month investiga-tion into allegations by a Down-town Eastside drug addict that a
constable was selling street-level amounts of marijuana both on- and off-duty.
The investigation included an undercover operation in which 10 “scenarios” documented the drug addict buying marijuana from Hodson or a co-accused, Oscar Lapitan.
In giving his reasons for sen-tence, Rideout cited aggravating
factors, including that Hodson’s criminal activity occurred while he was on duty, in uniform and sometimes while he was using a police vehicle, and that “vulnera-ble Downtown Eastside residents” were involved.
It was not a case of poor judg-ment, Rideout said. The activities were “signifi cantly planned and premeditated.”

TECK TO SPEND $685M FOR B.C. IMPROVEMENTSVANCOUVER (Canadian Press) Teck Resources plans to spend a total of $685 million on improvements at two of its major metals operations in British Columbia, the Vancouver-based mining company announced yesterday. Teck said it will invest $210 million to increase capacity of an electronic waste recycling operation in Trail where Teck has a major zinc smelter and hydroelec-tric plant. It will also spend $475 million to modernize and extend the life of a 40-year-old mill at the Highland Valley copper mine, about 75 km southwest of Kamloops.
DISEASE THAT SHUT DOWN SURREY SPCA WAS RINGWORMSURREY LEADER (Black Press)The Surrey SPCA remains closed due to what has turned out to be a particularly rare form of ringworm. The animal shelter at 152 Street and 67 Avenue shut down Sept. 2 after six staff were sent home with a mysterious rash. The SPCA traced the origin of the ringworm to two stray kittens that came into the shelter on Aug. 2. From there, it spread to seven other cats and a dog. The SPCA is treating them with a chemical bath and in the meantime watching for any other animals that show signs of ringworm.
ARREST MADE IN VICTORIA CITY HALL BOMB THREATVICTORIA NEWS (Black Press)At about 12:40 p.m., someone called City Hall and said there was a bomb inside. Staff immediately evacuated the building. Meanwhile, staff at the VicPD communications centre scrambled to trace the origin of that call. They tracked it to a gas station in Maple Ridge, and just more than half an hour after the threat was made, Maple Ridge RCMP sped up to a gas station on Lougheed Hwy. and arrested a man. The 53-year-old suspect is a resident of Maple Ridge. Police are considering charges of public mischief.
B.C. MP LIBBY DAVIES WON’T JOIN NDP LEADERSHIP RACE
LIQUOR OFFICIAL WARNED ABOUT POSSIBLE RIOT VANCOUVER (Canadian Press) There’s new evidence the Vancouver police were warned about a possible riot days before violence broke out during the fi nal game of the Stanley Cup playoffs on June 15.The warning is contained in documents from the offi ce of Karen Ayers, a senior offi cial with the liquor control branch, who said there had been growing crowds, high levels of intoxi-cation and some violence following an earlier game on June 10th. However, VPD Chief Jim Chu has said consistently the police had no advance intelligence there would be a riot.
VANCOUVER (Canadian Press) Veteran New Democrat member of Parliament Libby Davies says she won’t be running in the party’s leadership race. There had been some speculation that the popular East Vancouver politician would join the race to replace Jack Layton. In an interview from New Orleans, La., where she’s speaking at an HIV-AIDS and homeless conference, Davies says the next leader has to refl ect the country’s bilingual nature, and she doesn’t speak French.

YELLOWKNIFE (Canadian Press)
Bystanders tried desperately to save the lives of two pilots Thursday after the bush plane they were fl ying crashed in an empty lot between two buildings on a Yellowknife street.
But their efforts were in vain. Witnesses say both pilots of the Arctic Sunwest Charters Twin Otter died in the crash.
The plane, which was equipped to land on water,
went down after 1 p.m. in a part of town near Great Slave Lake, which is often busy with fl oat plane traf-fi c. The Transportation Safety Board said there were seven passengers on the plane in addition to the two pilots.
Debbie Doody, co-owner of the Dancing Moose Cafe across the street from the crash, was in the kitchen when several of her customers saw the plane go down.
“He crashed into the skirt of the building across the street with his wing and then he just did a total 360 turn and he landed in the parking lot,” Doody said. “It was really terrifying.”
Damien Healy with Stanton Hospital confi rmed two died on scene. Of the seven passengers, two were in critical condition. The remaining fi ve were also in hos-pital, but their conditions were stable. At least one of the injured was being fl own to hospital in Edmonton.
TORONTO (Canadian Press)
A new study says Canada needs a more realistic and open-minded pub-lic health approach to cannabis use.
The article, published in the Canadian Journal of Public
Health, says current public health policy tries to quash marijuana use rather than working to reduce harm for those who use it.
Study author Benedikt Fischer says cannabis is very prevalent, and stamping out its use altogether is unrealistic. Instead, Fischer recom-mends educating people about risks associated with the drug and trying to convince them to curb their use.
While he says the safest
approach is to abstain altogether, using pot later in life, avoiding driving while under the infl uence and ingesting it through safer devices like vaporizers can cut down on health risks.
Fischer says he’d like to see public health professionals treat cannabis the way they approach alcohol, as a potentially dangerous substance that can be enjoyed safely with the right educational tools in place.

LACK OF DATA HAMPERSRESIDENTIAL SCHOOL CLAIMS REGINA (Canadian Press)The head of the residential schools commission says some survivors are frustrated because they can’t get papers needed to back up their claim. The Truth and Reconciliation Commission is trying to collect documents from the govern-ment and churches. But Justice Murray Sinclair says many documents have been destroyed and he doesn’t know if that was deliberate or accidental. The deadline was Monday to fi le for a compensation payment which recognizes the impact of living at a residential school.

Calgary and Toronto have been recognized by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums. The Calgary Zoo has contributed 95 marmot pups for reintroduction to the wild or to bolster the captive breeding population. The Vancouver Island marmot is one of the most endangered mammals on the continent. The marmots were down to less than 30 wild animals but have rebounded to about 300.

New Democrat MP Nathan Cullen said if Togneri is trying to silence his critics with his letter he will be achieving the exact opposite effect.

UN General Assembly —
UNITED NATIONS (Associated Press)
American diplomats led a walkout at the UN General Assembly yesterday as Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad fi ercely attacked the United States and major West European nations as “arrogant powers” ruled by greed and eager for military adven-turism.
The two U.S. diplomats, who specialize in the Middle East, were followed out of the
chamber by dip-lomats from more than 30 countries. They included the 27 European Union members, Australia, New Zealand, Somalia, Liechtenstein, Monaco, San Marino and Macedonia, a UN diplomat said. Israel boycotted the speech.
Ahmadenijad’s fi ery anti-U.S. and anti-Israeli rhetoric has been a staple of the General Assembly’s ministerial meetings.
Iran’s hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad provoked yet another controversy yesterday saying a majority of people in the United States and around the world believe the American government staged the Sept. 11 terror attacks in an attempt to assure Israel’s survival.
The provocative comments prompted the U.S. delegation to walk out of Ahmadinejad’s UN speech, where he also blamed the U.S. as the power behind UN Security Council sanctions against Iran for its refusal to halt uranium enrichment, a technology that can be used as fuel for electricity generation or to build
nuclear weapons.Ahmadinejad’s speech
pitted the poverty and unhappiness of most countries against the riches and power of the U.S. and unnamed European nations
that he accused of perpetuating wars, causing the current global economic crisis and infringing on “the rights and sovereignty of nations.”
He attacked the United States and European colo-nial powers for abducting tens of millions of Africans
and making them slaves, for their readiness “to drop thousands of bombs on other countries,”
and for dominating the UN Security Council.
PARIS (Associated Press)
Kenza Drider’s posters for the French presidential race are ready to go, months before the offi cial campaign begins. There she is, the “freedom candidate,” pictured standing in front of a line of police – a forbidden veil hiding her face.
Drider declared her longshot candidacy yesterday, the same day that a French court fi ned two women who refuse to remove their veils. All three are among a group of women mounting an attack on the law that has banned the garments from the streets of France since April, and prompted similar moves in other Euro-pean countries.
They are bent on proving that the ban contravenes fundamental rights and that women who hide their faces stand for free-dom, not submission.
“When a woman wants to maintain her freedom, she must be bold,” Drider said in an interview.
President Nicolas Sarkozy strongly dis-agrees, and says the veil imprisons women. Polls show that most French people sup-port the ban, which authorities estimate affects fewer than 2,000 women who wore the veil before the ban.

ATHENS (AP) Austerity-weary Greeks lashed out against more tax hikes and pension cuts with a new round of strikes yesterday, with public transport workers, taxi drivers, teachers and air traffi c controllers walking off the job. The strikes come a day after the government announced yet another round of spending cuts, including plans to suspend 30,000 civil servants as it scrambles to keep international bailout payments fl owing and soothe global mar-ket fears that Greece will default. Without continued payments from a $150 billion program of rescue loans, Greece will run out of cash by mid-October.

PORT-AU-PRINCE, Haiti (AP)Several dozen protesters barged into a press conference in Haiti yesterday where Amnesty International released a report on the case against former dictator Jean-Claude Duvalier. The pro-Duvalier protesters accused the organization of being divisive and having no credibility. Amnesty International representatives briefl y presented the report only to cancel the press conference. The organization was expected to reveal new testimony from victims of the dictatorship. Duvalier returned to Haiti in January from exile in France. He was ousted from Haiti in 1986 after a 15-year rule.

Republican presidential contenders sharply criticized U.S. President Barack Obama’s handling of the economy in a campaign debate last night, calling for tax cuts, elimination of government regula-tions and other steps to help create jobs in a nation with 9.1 per cent unemployment.
Texas Gov. Perry has overtaken former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney as the front-runner in the race, and they compete daily for endorsements from members of Congress and other party luminaries in hopes of gaining a permanent edge in the race. Seven other candidates also participated, but the Republican contest has largely turned into a two-person race with fi ve months to go before the fi rst nominating contests.
Perry said his state ranked fi rst in the country fi ve years in a row in attracting businesses looking to relocate. “Something special happened there ... and we plan to keep it that way,” he said.
“The president’s party wants to take from some people and give to others. That isn’t the way to lift America,” said Romney.
The debate was the third in as many weeks for the GOP hopefuls and, in its opening moments, quite a bit less combative than the other two. Obama was the target of the nine candidates on stage, rather than each other.

GOP CANDIDATES NOT FOND OF OBAMA’S ECONOMIC PLANWASHINGTON (Associated Press)
The top U.S. military offi cer yesterday accused Pakistan of “exporting violence” to Afghanistan and said this puts in jeopardy not only the frayed U.S.-Pakistani partnership against terrorism but also the prospects for a successful outcome to the decade-old war in Afghanistan.
In his fi nal congressional testimony before retiring next week, Navy Adm. Mike Mullen said success in Afghanistan is threatened not only by the Pakistani
government’s support for the Haqqani network and other al-Qaida-aligned extremist groups but also by Afghan government corruption.
“If we continue to draw down forces apace while such public and systemic corruption is left unchecked,
I believe we risk leaving behind a government in which we cannot reasonably expect Afghans to have faith,” Mullen told the Senate Armed Services Com-mittee. “At best this would lead to localized confl icts inside the country; at worst it could lead to govern-ment collapse and civil war.”
Mullen said Pakistan’s government has chosen to “use violent extremism as an instrument of policy,” adding that “by exporting violence, they have eroded their internal security and their position in the region. They have undermined their international credibility and threatened their economic well-being.”
Testifying alongside Mullen, U.S. Defence Secretary Leon Panetta also decried Pakistani support for the Haqqani network, and he said Pakistani authorities have been told in unequivocal terms that the U.S. will not toler-ate a continuation of the group’s cross-border attacks.
Panetta said the message was delivered recently by new CIA director David Petraeus in a meeting with the head of the Pakistani intelligence agency, the ISI.
“They must take steps to prevent the safe haven that the Haqqanis are using,” Panetta said. “We sim-ply cannot allow these kinds of terrorists to be able to go into Afghanistan, attack our forces and then return to Pakistan for safe haven.”
Navy Adm. Mike Mullen said success in Afghanistan is threatened by the Pakistani government’s support for extremist groups.

“If I leave my mark on this world, hope-fully people will say, ‘Wow, she did a lot of different things,’” Chenoweth said.
But the one thing Chenoweth says is missing from her list of accomplishments is fi nding Mr. Right and settling down.
“I want to be married. I feel fi nally ready for that,” she said. “My goals might be dif-ferent than doing all these amazing career things. I think the next chapter will be focusing more on my personal life.”
Chenoweth said she can relate to a song by Dolly Parton called Sacrifi ce.
“She talks about how much she’s given up. She’s given up relationships ... missing out with her husband, not having a child, all of that I can relate to,” Chenoweth said. “So, maybe this second chapter in my life will be different in that way. But, I’ll always sing. Whoever that man is, he’s got to accept that music is like my arms. I can’t live without (them).”

Canadian consumers can expect more choice and possibly better prices when watching shows online or on mobile devices now that their TV providers can’t keep content exclu-sively to themselves.
Analysts say this week’s CRTC rul-ing means that any program broad-cast on television, including hockey games and other live events, must be made available to competitors under fair and reasonable terms.
Telecom analyst Troy Crandall said yesterday that consumers will need only one provider for con-tent across all their screens – from conventional TVs and smartphones to tablets and desktop or portable computers.
For example, a consumer won’t need multiple service plans with dif-ferent providers to be able to watch TV shows on the various devices.
Crandall said the CRTC deci-sion late Wednesday could end up lowering prices because the regula-tor decided TV providers should give more “a la carte” choices for consumers.
He said that means consumers
should be able to pick 10 channels, for example, that they really want and only pay for them.
“That can help them on the price side, that can help them on the selection side,”
Crandall, of Montreal-based broker Mac-Dougall, MacDougall & MacTier, said in an interview. “No matter how you look at this, I see this as being consumer friendly.”
The regulator ruled late Wednesday that any program broadcast on television, includ-ing hockey games and other live events, must be made available to competitors under fair and reasonable terms.
However, the CRTC will allow companies to offer exclusive programming to their Internet or mobile customers if it is pro-duced specifi cally for the Inter-net or a mobile device.
Technology analyst Duncan Stewart of Deloitte Canada said consumers don’t have to worry about having multiple plans or subscribers.
Stewart said if there are any disputes between providers about content access or price, consum-ers aren’t supposed to be affected.
“If you want to be paid more money, you can’t just pull it off the air,” he said.

Entertainment.P.S. I’m not sorry | Director Lars von Trier is taking
back his apology for saying at the Cannes Film Fest he sympathizes with Adolf Hitler, saying he was joking.
LONDON (Associated Press)
The singer who created a sensation when she hit the music world in pigtails and knee socks is turning 30 – and Britney Spears says she’s looking forward to it.
The pop star will be on the South American leg of her Femme Fatale world tour as she celebrates the landmark birthday on Dec. 2.
“I hear the older you get, the wiser you get and the more you know what you want – so hopefully it’ll be a good year,” the woman who was once one of the Internet’s most-searched names said.
Spears kicked off a string of European tour dates yesterday in St. Petersburg, but is not scheduled to play on her birthday. She has spent the summer performing across North America to positive reviews.
“The audiences have been just amazing, they’ve been so great to bounce off of and the energy I get from them, it’s great, it’s really cool,” she said.
Her seventh studio album, Femme Fatale, debuted at No. 1 in the U.S. Billboard charts and globally, and Spears targeted it at her female fans.
“With the big picture of being Femme Fatale, I think it is really inspiring for girls all together feeling very empowered and having a voice and being heard,” she said.
NEW YORK (Associated Press)
You might think he’s absolutely crazy, but Reeve Carney would do it all again.
He’d happily slip into his harness and hang upside
down night after night at Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark. He’d endure the long hours of rehearsals, the
eight months of tinkering, the backstage turbulence
and being the butt of jokes.“It’s like a great relationship –
you’re going to have dark times,” says Carney. “Everything that I personally went through, I would do it again, even if I knew in advance what it was going to be like.”
Carney, who plays the musical’s title character and his alter ego, Peter Parker, has had a front-row seat for the birth of Broadway’s most expensive show. But one rea-son he’s not bitter is that he’s had some friends along with him.
The 28-year-old has what might be an alter-alter ego: He is also the lead singer of the rock band Car-ney; and, in an unusual arrange-ment, the other three members of
the group are playing in the show’s orchestra pit.
The members of Carney, which also includes Reeve’s younger brother Zane on guitar, drum-mer Jon Epcar and bassist Aiden Moore, have been with the show
from the beginning, hand-picked by original director Julie Taymor and vetted by U2’s Bono and The Edge. None plan on leaving, and Reeve recently extended his con-tract until May 2012.
Zane calls the musical “this won-derful, giving, beautiful detour” and dismisses any suggestion that it has come at a cost to the band’s development. “Really we would have been playing for 20 to 100 people up and down the West Coast. That’s pretty much what it would have been,” he says.
The Carney brothers also don’t like to think about what would have happened if just Reeve got picked. “I don’t know what we would have done,” says Zane, 26. “We have Julie Taymor, Bono and The Edge to thank for the fact that we’re actually still a band.”
Interest in Reeve has been on the rise since he became Spidey and it has borne fruit: He’s been picked to play singer-songwriter Jeff Buckley in an upcoming biopic.
Buckley released only one studio album, Grace, and was hailed as a rising star before he accidentally drowned in 1997 at age 30.

OTTAWA (Canadian Press)
Finance Minister Jim Flaherty is warning of a sec-ond fi nancial meltdown on the scale of 2008 if action is not taken, saying he is frustrated by the lack of response from policy-markers.
The minister issued the alarm hours before fl ying to Washington to meet with his G20 colleagues in an 11th-hour effort to avert a crisis.
If the issue of a Greek default is not dealt with, “I think matters will come to a head, quite frankly,” he told reporters in Ottawa.
“We’ll run into the kind of crisis situa-tion that we ran into in October 2008, so one wants to get ahead of the issue rather than react to another crisis.”
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Stephen Harper and the leaders of Australia, Indonesia, Mexico, Korea
and the United Kingdom have sent an open letter to French President Nicolas Sarkozy, the G-20 chairman, calling for strong action at the November Cannes Summit to help ensure global economic stability and
growth.In the letter, lead-
ers said the effects of the international fi nancial crisis are still being felt around the world and that global eco-nomic activity has recently weakened, becoming more uneven and uncer-tain.
They pointed to European debt lev-els as a signifi cant threat to the global economy.
Three years ago, the failure of New York investment bank Lehman Broth-
ers touched off a wave of panic that froze credit in most advanced countries and sent the world tumbling into a deep recession from which it has yet to fully recover.

9AUTO SALES DROP EYED IN CANADIAN RETAIL DECLINEOTTAWA (Canadian Press)Canadian retail sales declined more than expected in July in a broad-based retreat led by auto dealers, who had benefi ted from unusually robust activity in the previous month, according to fi gures released yesterday.Overall retail sales fell 0.6 per cent to $37.5 billion in July after three straight monthly increases.It was the fi rst month-to-month decline since Janu-ary, when sales fell back 0.3 per cent, and the biggest since April 2010 when there was a two per cent decline attributed mostly to weak sales of motor vehicles and parts.Lower sales were reported in seven of 11 subsectors tracked by Statistics Canada. Vehicle and parts dealers accounted for most of the decline. A 3.5 per cent drop in sales at new-car dealers offset gains made in June, StatsCan said yesterday in its monthly report.

EDMONTON (Canadian Press) Mike Duco’s second-period short-handed goal stood up as the winner as a relatively no-name Vancouver Canucks squad showed up a largely veteran Edmonton Oilers team 2-1 in NHL exhibition play yesterday.Owen Nolan also scored for the Canucks, who are 2-1-0 in the pre-season.Jordan Eberle replied for the Oilers (1-2-0), who had roughly 70 per cent of what should be their starting regular season lineup in the game. The Canucks, meanwhile, iced a roster made up largely from their American Hockey League affi liate, the Chicago Wolves, plus a few veterans on try-out contracts.Vancouver struck fi rst, 13 minutes into the fi rst period on a power play with Edmonton’s Tom Gilbert in the penalty box. Finishing a nice three-way passing play, Nolan beat Edmonton goalie Devan Dubnyk, Edmonton’s Taylor Hall just coming back into the play from serving a penalty of his own.Vancouver had 13 fi rst period shots while Edmonton only put six on Eddie Lack in the Canucks end.Both teams return to the ice tomorrow as the Oilers remain at home to face the Calgary Flames, while the Canucks continue the pre-season at home against Anaheim.
LONDON, Ont. (Canadian Press)Philadelphia Flyers winger Wayne Simmonds says he has experienced racism throughout his life and hopes what happened during a shootout loss against the Detroit Red Wings last night wasn’t another example of it.The rangy forward, who scored in the last minute of regula-tion play to send the exhibition game into overtime and ultimately a shootout, took the fi rst shot of the tie-breaker and admitted a bit of shock when a banana came fl ying into his path as he zeroed in on Detroit netminder Jordan Pearce.“I don’t know if it had anything to do with the fact I’m black,” the Toronto native said. “I certainly hope not. When you’re black, you kind of expect (racist) things. You learn to deal with it.”Simmonds is among seven newcomers, brought in to replace a total of nine players who have departed through trades or free agency. He brings a toughness and durabil-ity after playing in 89 straight games for the Los Angeles Kings, where he was third in penalty minutes.As for his scoring in this one, he’ll take them however they come. His shot from the corner went in off Pearce.“I just fi red it hoping a teammate could defl ect it; it went in off the goalie’s inside pad. But I’ll take it. As they say, it’s not how, it’s how many.”The Red Wings emerged 4-3 winners after dominating play for most of three periods.

BANANA THROWN AT FLYERS’ SIMMONDS IN PRESEASON GAME
NHLPRE
SEASON
TORONTO (Canadian Press)
There truly is a new sheriff in town.Brendan Shanahan delivered a strong message as the
NHL embarked on a new era of discipline, hand-ing Flyers forward Jody Shelley a 10-game suspension and Calgary forward Pierre-Luc Letourneau-Leblond a fi ve-game ban yesterday and accompanying each with a slick video explaining the ruling.
The videos were posted on the NHL’s website and ran a little more than a minute apiece, with Shanahan describ-ing what rule was broken while video replays of each incident were shown.
In Shelley’s case, he was suspended for the rest of the pre-season and fi rst fi ve games of the regular season after hitting Maple Leafs forward Darryl Boyce from behind on Wednesday night. Shanahan cited Shelley’s two suspensions last year, and the fact Boyce suffered a broken nose on the play, as factors that weighed “heavily” in his decision.
“The video clearly shows that Boyce has his back to Shelley well before the contact,” Shanahan explained on the video. “Boyce does not put himself in this posi-
tion immediately prior to, or simultaneously, with the check. Shelley has time to avoid the check completely or at the very least minimize the contact.
“This is a clear violation of the boarding rule.”Letourneau-Leblond was also disciplined for a
breach of the expanded boarding guidelines that were introduced over the summer. Rule 41.1 states that “the onus is on the player applying the check to ensure his opponent is not in a defenceless position and if so, he must avoid or minimize contact.”
On Tuesday night, the Flames forward hammered Matt Clackson of the Vancouver Canucks into the side boards from behind.
“Leblond has time to avoid, or at the very least, minimize the check,” said Shanahan. “Instead,
Leblond takes a direct route and drives through the check hard and high and from behind.”
Shanahan replaced Colin Campbell in June and was given a mandate to increase player safety. He plans to issue a video with each
ruling in an effort to bring transparency to the decision-making process – an area where critics
often felt Campbell fell short.The fi rst rulings issued should put NHL players on
alert that he’s taking the job seriously. However, Leafs coach Ron Wilson doesn’t think it will completely eliminate incidents like Shelley’s hit on Boyce.
“We have laws against speeding, right? We have drunk driving laws; you can be executed if you murder some-body, (but) it doesn’t stop this stuff from happening,” Wilson told reporters yesterday. “There’s human nature involved, the game’s very fast. And you just stop thinking for a split second, those kind of things happen.”

VANCOUVER (Canadian Press)
After practising outside on a rainy day with a biting wind blowing in from the North Shore Mountains, it would be understandable if the Vancouver Whitecaps were anxious to pack their bags and move indoors at the newly renovated B.C. Place Stadium.
Instead, many of the players were whimsical yesterday about Empire Field, the temporary facility the Whitecaps have used during their fi rst season of Major League Soccer.
“I felt really comfortable here in Empire,” said midfi elder/forward Davide Chiumiento. “We always had great supporters. “It was a great moment here to play.”
The Whitecaps play their fi nal game at Empire Field on Saturday against the Seattle Sounders. Their fi rst match at B.C. Place will be Oct. 2 against the Portland Timbers.
Empire Field, located in Vancou-ver’s east end, always looked like something a child would build with a Meccano set. The seats were metal benches with no backs. All the bath-rooms and concession stands were outside the stadium. The players showered and changed in trailers.
There was lots to complain about,
but the players rarely did.“When you go through it, and look
back, it will be something you kind of remember,” said midfi elder Peter Vagenas, who joined the Whitecaps after playing for both Seattle and L.A.
Vagenas was a little surprised the fi rst time he looked at the outdoor sta-dium. “I didn’t know what to expect,” he said. “I was absolutely fl oored.
“I have been so fortunate to play in probably the three greatest environ-ments in Major League Soccer. Seattle and Vancouver are unique because they’re so new. L.A. took a while to get where it is. In terms of atmosphere, in terms of places opponents come in andrealize it’s an away game, Vancouver and Seattle are at the top of the list.”

World.History | Pope Benedict XVI said in a speech to the German parliament
yesterday that politicians must not sacrifi ce ethics for power and that the Nazi excesses of his homeland should be taken as a lesson in history.
SHANGHAI, China (Associated Press)
Recently retired Chinese NBA star Yao Ming is taking the fi ght against eating shark fi ns back to his homeland, where demand for the traditional delicacy is soaring despite efforts to ban their use and trade.
Yao and British tycoon Richard Branson made an appeal yesterday in Shanghai against eating shark fi ns, which are a staple of high-class Chinese banquets, to a group of 30 of China’s richest and most infl uential businesspeople.
“When demand happens, the buying happens and the killing happens,” said Yao. He says he is using his post-retirement free time to campaign against the slaughter of 1.5 million sharks a week that is taking some of the species close to extinction.
The event, sponsored by the conservation group WildAid, is aimed at starting a conservation movement in China “not just to protect the sharks but to protect tigers, and to protect other species that are in peril of extinction,” Branson said.
Critics say fi shermen kill more than 70 million sharks each year for their fi ns, which can sell for
$700 a pound, while the soup can cost $80 a bowl. Usually, the fi ns are cut from the sharks and their bodies discarded, leaving them to die.
Although there have been moves to ban the trade and consumption of shark fi ns in California and elsewhere, 95 per cent are con-sumed in China.
“There’s been a massive increase in shark fi n soup
and the killing of sharks,” said Bran-son, whose Virgin Airlines bans trans-port of shark fi ns. “The world is getting
wealthier, particularly in China people are getting wealthier, and they can now afford to buy shark fi n soup.”
While shark fi ns have been used to make soup for hundreds of years, until recently consumption was limited to a small elite, said
Yao, who gave up eating shark fi n in 2006 and says he avoids
events where it is served.
GENEVA (Associated Press) Scientists at the world’s largest physics lab say they have clocked subatomic particles travelling faster than light, a feat that – if true – would break a fundamental pillar of science.The readings have so astounded researchers that they are asking others to independently verify the measure-ments before claiming an actual discovery.Nothing is supposed to move faster than light, at least according to Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativ-ity: The famous E=mc2 equation. That stands for energy equals mass times the speed of light squared.But neutrinos – one of the strangest well-known particles in physics – have now been observed smashing past this cosmic speed barrier of 299,792 kilometres per second.CERN says a neutrino beam fi red from a particle accel-erator near Geneva to a lab 730 kilometres away in Italy travelled 60 nanoseconds faster than the speed of light. Scientists calculated the margin of error at just 10 nano-seconds, making the difference statistically signifi cant.The CERN researchers are now looking to the United States and Japan to confi rm the results.
