In Woudzia’s 20-page report,he outlined different scenariosfor what programs or classescould be housed at Hume Park.

BILL RADBOURNE IS CITY’S CITIZEN OF THE YEAR
‘It was quite a surprise’A New Westminster native
whose been known to help outwith sports groups, communi-ty organizations and residents’groups in the Royal City has beenrecognized as Citizen of the Year.
BillRadbourne’smanycommu-nity contributions were acknowl-edged when he was named NewWestminster’s Citizen of the Year.He accepted the award whenthe New Westminster Chamberof Commerce held its Citizen ofthe Year/Bernie Legge CulturalAwards dinner on Wednesdaynight at the Inn at the Quay.
“It was quite a surprise,” hesaid. “You start listening to thebios of the other people - they arepretty dedicated.”
As he scans the names of pastrecipients on the Citizen of theYear plaque, Radbourne said he’shonoured to be in their company.
Born and raised in Sapperton,Radbourne attended RichardMcBride Elementary, VincentMassey Junior High and LesterPearson High School. Even as ateenager, he was recognized forhis community contributions,when he received a service awardat school for his volunteer efforts,which included keeping score
for the school’s hockey team andmanaging the band.
After graduating from highschool, Radbourne landed a jobwith the City of New Westminsterin the board of works depart-ment. Although he initially put insidewalks in the Massey Heightsneighbourhood, he then landeda job working on the garbagetrucks.
“I figured if got on the trucks,I could get on with the firedepartment,” he said. “I guess itworked.”
Radbourne eventually got ajob as a firefighter with the NewWestminster Fire Department,where he worked for more than30 years. He retired as an assistantchief in 2003.
During his tenure at the firedepartment, Radbourne initi-ated the department’s first BootDrive and pub crawl for MuscularDystrophy. He was sure thedepartment could donate morethan $100 annually to the cause.
“We went from $100 to $4,000in that first year,” he said. “Wewon an award.”
Although he served the com-munity through his work with thefire department, Radbourne hascontributed to the community innumerous ways throughout hislife. Those contributions include
refereeing minor lacrosse, coach-ing minor football, helping startup the Royal City Curling Club,and volunteering for the SeniorsGames and New Westminster’s150th Celebration. He’s also alongtime member of SappertonFish and Game Club.
“If somebody needs help, youjust do it,” he said.
Radbourne was honouredwhen he was invited in 1998 tobe a member of the Ancient andHonorable Hyack Anvil Battery.
A founding member of theMasseyVictoryHeightsResidents’Association, Radbourne served asits president for three year and asits vice president for an additionalthree years and is currently the itsimmediate past president.
Radbourne’s wife of 16 years,Lynn, has been known to recruithim to assist with some of hermany community endeavours.(She’s a past recipient of theBernie Legge Cultural Award.)
Radbourne jokes that whenpeople see the couple’s phonenumber, they know they’re callingto ask them to volunteer on somesort of community endeavour.
“People like to volunteer. Ifyou can give them a good job,they like to do it,” he said. “It’s Recognized: Bill Radbourne has been named Citizen of the Year.

New Westminster-CoquitlamConservative candidate Diana Dilworthis questioning her NDP rival’s stance oncrime.
As the federal election campaign headsinto its final weekend, Dilworth is askingwhy NDP candidate Fin Donnelly andthe NDP have voted against “every crimebill” yet say they’re concerned about crime.She’s calling on Donnelly to explain whyhe didn’t support crime legislation in theHouse of Commons.
“As the riding breathes a sigh of reliefthat Allan Schoenborn will not be releasedinto our community, I call on Fin Donnellyto assure the community that the NDP willjoin me and commit to supporting legisla-tion that will put victims first and preventthis situation from happening again,” shesaid in a press release. “Through the lastfive years, the NDP have consistently voted
against every crime billthat the Conservativegovernment put for-ward.”
(Schoenborn, aMerritt resident, killedhis three children in2008 and was chargedwith three counts offirst-degree murder. Ajudge deemed he wasnot criminally respon-sible because of a men-tal disorder and he iscurrently housed atColony Farms forensicpsychiatric hospital in Port Coquitlam.)
Dilworth said the residents of NewWestminster-Coquitlam want changes tothe Criminal Code to ensure that violentoffenders like Schoenborn don’t have theopportunity to rejoin the community.
“Fin Donnelly attended a rally lastWednesday at Coquitlam city hall in sup-port of (Schoenborn’s ex-wife) Darcie
Clarke. He stood withother politicians whocommitted to work-ing together to makeany necessary chang-es,” Dilworth said.“At the BurquitlamCommunityAssociation debate,Mr. Donnellyacknowledged thatviolent offenders,like these that com-mit heinous crimesagainst children, needto be addressed. Fin
Donnelly has never supported crime legis-lation. Do you think he will do it now?”
Donnelly’s campaign office stated thathe has introduced two crime bills sincebeing elected in November 2009 and hassupported crime legislation that has comebefore the House of Commons during histime in Ottawa. This includes bills relatedto sentencing for fraud, limiting pardons
for serious crimes, protecting Canadiansby ending sentence discounts for multiplemurders act, and amending the ControlledDrugs and Substance Act (methamphet-amine and ecstasy.)
Donnelly supported crime legislationrelated to review of RCMP civilian com-plaints and to amend the Corrections andConditional Release Act regarding endingearly release for criminals, but both of thesebills died on the order paper when parlia-ment was dissolved.
Dilworth said the Conservative govern-ment will introduce an omnibus crime billwithin its first 100 days of government andshe will be proud to support the bill. (Anomnibus bill bundles several items togetherinto one bill.)
Donnelly said it’s “disingenuous” forDilworth to state that he and he NDPhave not supported crime bills. Whilehe has supported crime bills, Donnellysaid he believes they have to be examined

“We want to lay out the advantages and disadvantagesof each of these scenarios,” said Woudzia. “This report is astarting point, an entry point for dialogue.
“This is not intended to be a definitive final solution,” hetold The Record on Friday afternoon. “We hope that peopleview it as a series of ideas and possible solutions.”
Woudzia reiterated that the report he worked on formany days is not focused on the closure of Hume ParkElementary.
“Hume Park is a very valuable resource for the schooldistrict,” he said. “We’re looking at ways to optimize thevalue of that asset. My report looks at the various optionswe have.”
All students at Hume Park were given a copy ofWoudzia’s report to take home to their parents at the endof school Friday. In addition, Richard McBride studentswere given a letter to take home telling them that the reportwould be available online and people who want paper cop-ies can pick them up at McBride next week.
Woudzia said the public will have at least two opportu-nities to make their thoughts known.
“We have two community meetings scheduled and thisis valuable information for people to make an informedopinion,” said Woudzia.
The community meetings Woudzia is referring to are onWednesday, May 4 at 7 p.m. at the Sapperton Pensioners’Hall and on May 11 at 7 p.m. at Richmond McBrideElementary.
According to a letter sent to Hume Park parents datedApril 21, the meetings “will focus on potential consolida-tion” considerations related to the two schools.
In addition, the school board will continue gatheringinformation in readiness for a potential final decision atits June 7 regular board meeting at New Westminster cityhall.
School trustees James Janzen and Casey Cook both saidthat while the district is in a 45-day consultation period,trustees are in a listening mode and not making any conclu-sions or comments until all the feedback is returned fromvarious stakeholder groups.

This is not an editorial exhorting youto get out and vote. We’ve done that.
It is also not an editorial tellingyou who to vote for. We don’t believein endorsements – although for manynewspapers it’s part of theelection campaign process.
In the 2008 federal electionThe Vancouver Sun endorsedStephen Harper. We don’tthink he won because of that endorse-ment – but perhaps it didn’t hurt. Thispast week the Globe and Mail endorsedStephen Harper.
Some pundits suggested that havingan “eastern” paper throw its editorialsupport behind a candidate might justget western voters’ backs up and actuallyhurt Harper. Who knows?
We do, however, think it’smighty arrogant of news-papers to try and use theirclout (what little they mayhave left) to support a candi-
date – left, right or centre.Why, we question, would newspaper
editors believe they are blessed withspecial intelligence or insight into who,
or what policies, are best for Canada?Do readers really need a newspaper
to tell them who to vote for? And aftera newspaper endorses a candidate and/or party, what responsibility does thatnewspaper have in continuing coverageof their “endorsed” candidate?
Newspapers and journalists arefacing increasing questions about theircredibility and bias. It seems to us thata newspaper endorsing a candidate onlyamplifies those concerns.
Yes, newspapers are not clinical,scientific devices. They are staffed by
human beings who, by our very natures,have biases. We try not to have thosebiases impact our decisions.
But it would be false to suggest thatno matter how hard we try our decisionsaren’t influenced – albeit as little as pos-sible – by our own experiences.
We’re not going to tell you who tovote for, but we will say that it is almostalways better to trust one’s own think-ing than follow someone else’s.
At least then you can only blameyourself if you’ve picked the wrong pol-itician.
Take a better lookat the ‘misfits’
Re: Mr. John Connolly’s rantingsin “Misfits make area unattractive”(Letters to the editor, The Record,April 9).
It is it abundantly clear thatMr. Connolly has had someunfortunate incidents occur
in and around his neighbour-hood, including graffiti writingadolescents, scrap metal thievesand a whole host of characters.However, to unilaterally putthe blame on the resi-dents of the Last DoorRecovery Society – theactual business whichMr. Connolly is blam-ing but is too cowardly to nameoutright – which is located inthe 300 block on Eighth Streetis unfounded. He provides noproof of this, either by sight,by evidence, by police reportswhich cite these individuals, byno reportings to police at all forthat matter and certainly notthrough any communication orcollaboration in fact-finding withlocal residents. Mr. Connollyfeeds on conjecture and not onfacts.
Further, Mr. Connolly hasnever been the benevolent recipi-ent of the many charitable actsthat the residents of the LastDoor Recovery Society enactdaily to residents in and aroundour neighbourhood. As a long-time neighbour myself, I haveoften availed myself of the gen-erosity of the helpful residentsof the Last Door for assistance inmoving heavy furniture in myhome, getting some landscapingdone that was too physically dif-
ficult for me to do, getting somefurniture picked up and deliv-ered to other needy facilities orsimply having some cleanupdone on my property, a propertythat is also a well-known, home-based award-winning business.
When I work in my frontyard, these polite, clean-cutyoung men, and sometimeswomen, pass by with a big goodmorning, smile sincerely, chat
amiably, complimentmy efforts and gener-ally give the impres-sion of being an assetto our neighbourhood.
They rehabilitate under astrict regime of “cold turkey,”no methadone or drugs or ciga-rettes; are taught that, althoughthey “took” from society before,this is their chance to returnsome of that energy positively;and, by the time they graduateone year later under the mentor-ship of seasoned, educated indi-viduals, themselves long-termgraduates, and under the con-stant support of family membersproud of their accomplishments,these young individuals go onto lead productive and positivelives, perhaps indirectly enhan-cing the very lives of individualssuch as yourself, Mr. Connolly.
They produce more courageto change their lives for the bet-ter than the courage you haveshown, Mr. Connolly, in “allud-ing” to them as opposed to out-right naming them.
Mr. Connolly, the next time itsnows in New Westminster, I
OUR VIEWTHE RECORD
Harper leading Canada astrayDear Editor:
What direction and where is the Harper govern-ment leading us? In one of President Eisenhower’slast speeches as president, he warned of the grow-ing power of the military-industrial complex. Thatwas over 50 years ago.
Canada has resisted being sucked into thisbottomless pit – until the Harper government. Whatbusiness does Canada have in Iraq, Afghanistan andnow Libya? Where next? What has been the cost ofthis foolishness? We know it has cost billions, butunder the super secret Harper government we don’tknow the full cost.
The Harper government proposes to spend over$20 billion on F-35 stealth fighters plus countlessbillions on other militaria. Under Harper, we havebecome a tool of the U.S.A., turning Canada from apeace-loving nation into a war nation. The U.S.A.,England, France, Germany and Russia are arms
manufacturing nations, producing, selling and read-ing, willing and able to foment and jump into anysituation. What is Canada doing in this company?
Instead of our comparably small country squan-dering billions on foreign military equipment, wecould invest in a disaster army equipped to handleany natural disaster in the world. Then I would beproud of Canada’s international role.
I would also add that I understand a new healthagreement between the federal government and theprovinces will be negotiated in 2014. Do you trustthe Harper government to implement a new deal?

an end to taxpayers being forced to footthe bill for political parties, and hopefully,an end to the draconian long gun regis-try. Even if the Conservatives accomplishnone of the aforementioned things, the factthey have already purchased new militaryhelicopters for our ground forces, andare planning to purchase the stealth F35fighter bombers is in and of itself reasonenough for me to vote Conservative in thiselection.
If we send brave young men andwomen into battle they deserve to be pro-vided with the very best in technology andfirepower that we can afford to give them.Everything else pales in comparison.

You may be voting for BlocDear Editor:
Are coalitions good or bad? I say, it alldepends on which parties are involved.
Would you vote for the NDP or theLiberals if you knew that the only waythey could form a government would be toinclude the Bloc Québécois in a coalition?
The election is not likely to result in muchchange in the standings in Parliament. Allfour parties will keep roughly the sameshare of seats as they did before the elec-tion. If that turns out to be true, the par-ties currently in opposition – the NDP,the Liberals and the Bloc – will attemptto govern by forming a coalition. Withoutthe cooperation of the Bloc, the NDP andLiberals cannot command a majority inParliament.
What do you think the Bloc will wantin return for helping an NDP-Liberal coali-tion?
The Bloc has demonstrated that it onlycares for one province. It doesn’t take
much imagination to predict that the Blocwould hold any Liberal-NDP coalitionhostage to their demands.
Thus, a vote for the NDP is really a votefor the Bloc Québécois.

Criticism not ‘mudslinging’Dear Editor:
Re: Debate, not mudslinging, Letters tothe editor, The Record, April 20.
In his April 20 tirade against my April13 letter, Mike Redmond clearly believesI should not express my poor opinion ofStephen Harper because Mr. Redmondbelieves Mr. Harper has done a good job.
OK. But Mr. Redmond then accuses meof criticizing Mr. Harper over specific cor-porate tax rates – which I did not do.
I criticized Mr. Harper for pushing ahazy deal to spend $30 billion or more onnew warplanes instead of issues favouredby a majority of Canadians, whom Mr.Harper is supposed to represent.
I criticized Mr. Harper for earningCanada the “Fossil Award” for his ham-pering of world efforts to reduce green-house gases.
I criticized Mr. Harper for policies thatthreaten to trash our environment, suchas opposing legislation to limit oil tankersalong B.C.’s fragile coastline.
Apparently lacking any reasonedarguments opposing my criticism, Mr.Redmond resorts to the old political ployof attacking the messenger, accusing me of“over-the-top mudslinging,” plus a sprin-kling of ranting and fulminating.
I should think anyone supporting Mr.Harper would assiduously avoid bringingup the subject of mudslinging, which isthe basis of the vile attack ads so gener-ously disgorged by the Harper electioncampaign.

he’s being challenged by Forseth,a former Conservative member ofParliament for New Westminster-Coquitlam.
“It is interesting to see the mediastart to pay attention to Jack Layton’sfar-fetched promises, now that he isgetting better poll results in Quebec,”Forseth wrote in anemail to The Record.“The NDP platformeither doesn’t add up,or they propose to dothings that they haveno jurisdiction to do.”
Forseth said theNDP has no abilityto do anything abouthiring 1,200 doctors,using Parliament toend the HST in British Columbia orputting a low universal interest capon credit cards.
“Any reasonable person wouldrecoil if they seriously analyzed themany unrealistic and disingenuouspromises,” he said. “In contrast, theConservative promises have beenmodest, with the main theme to wise-ly manage the economy to ensurethat the revenues are there to sustainand protect health-care and the broadsocial safety net.”
As a former financial advisor anda small business operator, Julian saidthe government needs to “carefullysteward the public purse and putresources into essential services” such
as poverty, student debit and healthcare, rather than billions into fighterjets and $1 billion for a G8 summit inOntario.
“As a financial administrator, Ilook at the record of the Harper gov-ernment – I think the extent to whichthey have wasted taxpayer money isunprecedented,” Julian said.
Forseth will spend his final week-end on the campaigntrail door knocking,while Julian will dosome door knocking,attend some smallevents and host a visitto the riding by NDPleader Jack Layton onSaturday.
“Jack Layton hascertainly captured the
public imagination, a good chunk ofthe public,” Julian said. “The num-bers for the NDP continue to climb.”
Julian said he’s encountering fewundecided voters as Election Daynears. While some had suggestedCanadians weren’t thrilled with theprospect of having another federalelection, Julian believes there’s a tre-mendous amount of interest in theelection.
“People are very hot on the ideaof an election. They can actuallysee the possibility for real change,”he said. “Conservatives keep put-ting that message out. … Everyoneelse believes this is a very importantmoment in Canadian history.”
Helps, the Green party candidatein New Westminster-Coquitlam, willbe focusing here efforts on makingthe “first past the post” voting systemwork to the Green’s advantage.
Although the Green Party ofCanada received almost one millionvotes in the 2008 federal election, shesaid it has rarely been concentrated inspecific ridings to such a degree thatits supporters have been able to winthat riding by a majority.
“Given this disadvantage, myfocus in these final days of the elec-tion will be on supporting two Greencampaigns in federal ridings herein British Columbia to help get outthe vote in each,” she said in anemail to The Record. “Elizabeth May,leader of the Green Party of Canadaand the candidate in Saanich and theGulf Islands, is currently in the lead.With the support of Green volunteerscross south Vancouver Island, we canget the vote out and get Elizabethelected. As well, Green Party ofCanada deputy leader Adriane Carr,a co-founder in 1983 of the NorthAmerican Green Party Movement,also stands an excellent chance ofwinning her riding of Vancouver CityCentre, where she is currently in sec-ond place and where support forthe Liberal incumbent is collapsing. Iwould like to ask Green supporters inNew Westminster to throw their fullsupport behind Adriane’s campaignthis weekend.”
on their merits rather than as omni-bus bills.
Donnelly pointed out that he haspersonally introduced two crime-related private members bills in theHouse of Commons that relate tochild safety and child luring.
“We are also focusing on preven-tion, preventing crime,” he said.
The Record spoke to Donnellyabout the issue following an all-can-didates meeting Thursday morning atNew Westminster Secondary School.Overhearing the interview, Burnaby-New Westminster NDP candidatePeter Julian voiced his opinion.
“They are hysterical on crimi-nal justice issues,” he said
about Conservatives. Julian saidConservatives cut crime preventionfunding, even though it’s been shownthat each $1 invested in crime preven-tion saves $6 in policing and othercosts.
Donnelly said Darcie Clarke’s fam-ily contacted his constituency officeand he felt it was important to attendlast week’s rally in Port Coquitlam.He also presented a copy of a letteron the Schoenborn matter that he hadsent to the attorney general.
“I listened, I took action,” he said.“I responded to that particular issuein our community.”
Donnelly said he attended therally because he felt strongly aboutthe issue. He said it’s “a bit disin-
genuous” for Dilworth to criticize hispresence at the rally when he’s beenin contact with her family and whenshe didn’t attend herself.
Dilworth said there were a num-ber of events taking place that day,including a transportation forum anddoor knocking, and she was con-fident the Conservative party waswell-represented by Conservative MPJames Moore and volunteers from hercampaign.
Asked about her press release, shesaid it was meant to highlight the“hypocrisy” in Donnelly’s commentsabout being against crime and hislack of support bills put forward inthe House of Commons.

The Shiloh-Sixth Avenue United Churchcongregation and the Hospitality Projectare mourning the death of a key memberof their community.
Basil Fitze, a volunteer with theHospitality Project that operates out ofthe church, passed away April 25 fromcomplications occurring after undergoingsurgery. He was 50.
“People are pretty broken up,” saidKimiko Karpoff, interim program coordi-nator at the Hospitality Project. “He wasone of our key volunteers here. He greetedpeople at the door, helped them find theirseat. It’s a huge loss for this congrega-tion. He was a very active member of thecongregation and also for the HospitalityProject.”
Family members told Karpoff that Fitze
loved volunteering with the HospitalityProject and his face would light up whenhe talked about his work there.
Fitze was a familiar face at theHospitality Project on days when the foodbank is open, as that’s when people gatherin the church to visit with friends andaccess goods and resources while waitingto get into the food bank.
A celebration of Fitze’s life is takingplace on Wednesday, May 4 at 2 p.m.at Shiloh-Sixth Avenue United Church at1111 Sixth Ave.
Fitze was featured on the front pageof the March 12, 2011 issue of The Record.Having been in a power chair for about ayear because of a variety of health issues,he had voiced concerns about the condi-tion of some of the city’s sidewalks and theneed for more curb cuts that allow peoplewith mobility challenges to walk or wheelfrom the sidewalk onto the roadway.

Workers honoured duringannual Day of MourningBY BRENT RICHTER [email protected]
Workers, labour activists and pub-lic officials bowed their heads in silencearound the province Thursday to markthe annual National Day of Mourning, aday that honours workers killed, injuredor made ill on the job.
WorkSafe B.C. counts 143workers who died in 2010,either from an incident onthe job, complications from aworkplace injury or as a resultof a disease likely contractedon the worksite.
Representatives from theNew Westminster and DistrictLabour Council, the CanadianLabour Congress, the UnitedSteelworkers and the PublicCompensation Coalitionjoined with the City ofBurnaby to mark the occasionat Burnaby city hall Thursday.Mayor Derek Corrigan madea proclamation recognizingApril 28 as this year’s Day ofMourning at a council meeting on April18, as have most councils in the LowerMainland.
Carolyn Rice, secretary treasur-er of the labour council, said her big-gest concern for worker safety rightnow is young workers and those whowork in customer service alone at night.“I’m really concerned for young peoplebecause we have an age-12 child labourlaw in British Columbia – the lowest in
the country. The rate of youth injury anddeath has spiked up,” she said
Rice said the province is currently look-ing to change regulations that requirelate-night service workers to have at leastone partner on the job if they are workingpast 10 p.m., which she said could put theyoung people who tend to work in thosejobs at risk.
“I would say that is goingto be a very pressing issueover the next while and wewill be not just watching butactively pushing the govern-ment not to consider rollingback that regulation,” she said.
She said the case of GrantDe Patie, the young workerwho was killed at a MapleRidge gas station in 2005 whena customer struck him withhis car while attempting a“gas and dash,” highlights theproblem.
Rice said the council willalso be pressing the govern-ment to increase the premi-ums employers pay that go
into compensation for injured workers.According to Rice, the premiums havebeen slashed and the services, compensa-tion and pensions for workers who havehad “life-altering injuries” are completelyuntenable to live on.
“It’s a system that’s no longer fair forworking people,” she said.
WorkSafe B.C. issued penalties to four

standing on gave way.Al Johnson, WorkSafe B.C. regional
director, said while the injury and deathrate for workers is on the decline, it is stillunacceptably high and deaths from occu-pational diseases continue to rise.
“We have three workers that are killedin this province every week and whenyou put it into that perspective, that’sunbelievable. We really need to get thegeneral public to rally around that,” hesaid. “One fatality is one fatality too manyas far as we’re concerned.”
To combat this, Johnson saidemployers, employees and the pub-lic need to develop a “culture of safe-ty” in which safety is ingrained intoevery aspect of work and is given thesame priority as profit and productivity“Easier said than done,” Johnson noted.

Remarkably modest for a youngwoman competing in a beautypageant, New Westminster’s AndreaGlisic is giving it her all to be crownedMiss World Canada.
Glisic, a first-time pageant contest-ant, isn’t doing it for pride or recogni-tion. Instead, she made a New Year’sresolution that 2011 would see her trysomething new and stumbled uponan ad for the pageant online.
“I was just on Facebook, and therewas an ad up. It said ‘Miss WorldCanada,’ so I clicked on it because Iwanted to browse through and seewho the queen was, and I showedit to my mom, and she said, ‘Youshould do this. This looks like fun,’”Glisic said.
Glisic said what clinched it was thefact the Miss World Canada is part-nered with Variety – The Children’sCharity. Glisic is in her third yearof studies in youth and child careat Douglas College, and she worksin an after-school daycare in NewWestminster.
“I just love being around kids. Ithink they’re so much more fun thangrown up people,” she said.
Last year the pageant and its con-testants raised more than $100,000 forVariety.
Glisic, 22, said she was also attract-ed to the pageant by the way contest-ants are judged: 40 per cent of themark is based on interviews beforethe gala, 40 per cent is based on even-ing gown presentation, 10 per centbased on professionalism and 10 percent based on how much money con-testants can raise for Variety.
“It’s not typical in that they’renot just looking at outer beauty.They’re looking at inner beauty aswell. They’re doing charity work fora good cause, which makes sense forme because I’m in child and youthcare,” Glisic said.
If she wins the pageant, sched-uled for May 19 at the River RockCasino in Richmond, Glisic will goon to compete for Canada in the MissWorld Pageant in Brazil.
As for her own fundraising, Glisichas raised about $700 so far afterhosting a club night at Mirage night-club in Surrey and she plans to hold acar wash and yard sale in the comingweeks. Her goal is $1,500.
“The rest,” she said, “is from the
good hearts of my friends and fam-ily.”
Glisic, who immigrated to Burnabyfrom the former Yugoslavia with herCroatian mother and Serbian fatherwhen she was eight, said her training
regimen for the pageant is mainlydoing yoga and she hasn’t quite linedup a dress yet.

Chasing the crownThe Group of Five & Friends are celebrating spring
to raise funds for equipment at Royal ColumbianHospital.
The group’s Spring Thyme fundraising luncheonand garden sale takes place on Friday, May 6 from11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Old Bavaria Haus restaurantat 233 Sixth St. Tickets are $30 and include a three-course spring luncheon featuring soup, quiche, freshstrawberry Bavarian cream dessert and coffee.
“One hundred per cent of the proceeds are goingto buy equipment for the hospital,” said Shirley Piper,a member of the Group of Five. “Our overhead isstamps and insurance.”
In addition to the luncheon, the Spring Thymefundraiser features a garden sale – just in time forMother’s Day.
“We have a lot of absolutely beautiful herb buckets.We have some bedding plants. We have containerswith different flowers,” Piper said. “We are going tohave a few hanging baskets.”
Gift baskets in burlap bags, a crystal ice bucketfilled with a pot of fresh flowers, milk glass vaseswith gerbera daisies, and olive oils infused withthyme, rosemary and more are also for sale. Lanternsfor tealights and birdhouses are also among the itemsfor sale.
“We are going to make it very easy. There is $5, $10,$15 and $20 tables,” Piper said.
During the luncheon, toonie tickets will be soldand draws will be held every half hour.
“We have got some very nice draw gifts,” saidPiper, offering an example. “A big centerpiece thathas been donated. It looks like a little red wagon. It isgoing to be filled with the most amazing things.”
Since 2004, the Group of Five & Friends has helda variety of fundraisers to buy equipment for RoyalColumbian Hospital.
“We would like to say thank you to all the citizensin New Westminster who have supported us from thevery beginning,” said Gerda Suess, one of the group’sfounders. The women involved in the group – Piper,Suess, Mary Lou Chesman, Alana McIntyre, MarionOsterman and Helen Bodner – consult with hospitalstaff to determine what needs to be purchased andthen hold a variety of fundraisers to buy the neededitems.
Proceeds from the Spring Thyme fundraising lun-cheon and garden sale will allow the group to buyhospital tools such as saws, drills and hammers foruse in operating rooms at Royal Columbian Hospital.The hammers range in price from $300 to $9,000.
The Group of Five’s most recent purchase for RoyalColumbian Hospital was bone foam, which is used toposition patients when they’re undergoing surgery.
“You cannot believe how much easier this piece offoam has made things in the operating room,” Pipersaid. “These piece of foam, it is patient comfort, but itis also accessibility for the surgeons.
The Group of Five & Friends is planning two otherfundraisers for 2011 – a garage sale in June and aChristmas homes tour in December.
“We can issue tax receipts,” Suess said. “We are asociety recognized by the federal government.”

MOTHER’S DAY
Moms are topsas role models
new survey has foundthat mothers are the top fe-male role models in the lives ofsix in 10 Canadian girls.
Furthermore, most of theseyoung people, aged 10 to 17,were unlikely to identify othertypes of women they hopedto emulate, be they pop starsor others, suggesting that theweight on a mom’s shouldersis that of her daughter’s entireworld.
“It’s useful reinforcementfor women to know they havethis kind of power and influ-ence,” said Shari Graydon, aCanadian media watchdog. “Isuspect most mothers — whoin their day to day parentingare throwing up their hands atthe kind of influence the mediahas — probably don’t appreci-ate how much their daughterslook up to them.”
The phone survey wasconducted by StrategyOne onbehalf of Dove, and gatheredopinions from 1,200 girls in sixcountries.
After mothers, the most-citedrole model by the Canadiancontingent was “my friend,” at13 per cent, followed closelyby “my sister,” at 12 per cent.Seven per cent named some-one else within their extendedfamily as a female role model,with four per cent identifyingtheir grandmother.
A spokeswoman for Dovesaid the rate at which publicfigures were cited by Canadiangirls was negligible.
“It may simply be that thesegirls are smart enough not tosay, ‘I want to be the next Brit-ney Spears,’” suggested Gray-don. “But the global concern
is thatstrongfemalerole models— whetherathletes, musi-cians, business leadersor politicians — still have, re-grettably, much lower profilesthan their male counterparts.”
To illustrate, Graydon point-ed to an older study in whichyoung boys had no troublerattling off role models of everystripe, but girls of the sameage had to be pressed.
Nadine Silverthorne hasa young daughter, and washeartened although surprisedby the new survey findings.
“I did wonder if the girlswere saying that just to bepolite,” said Silverthorne. “Butobviously a mother’s influenceis huge.”
Silverthorne, editor of Sweet-Mama at Sweetspot.ca, sug-gested that youth are uncon-sciously shaped by celebrities,but consciously guided by theirmothers.
In fact, a previous surveyfound moms were three timesmore influential than mediain terms of shaping the waygirls feel about themselves andabout what it means to bebeautiful.
“I think we all need to do abetter job of being role mod-
els,” Silverthorne said. “Whatthis study made me think is,‘Wow, I’m having a huge im-pact on who my daughter willeventually be, and I need to bereally careful of that.’”
The findings showed thatmusicians and actresses carrysignificantly more influencewith girls in other countries.But mothers were still uni-versally named as the topfemale role model: 54 per centworldwide versus 59 per centin Canada.

of gratitude can be an extremely pow-erful force,” says Dino Caporiccio atStorck Canada. “Experts tell us that anygesture of appreciation triggers energyin a positive headspace.”
Here are a few tips to make yourheartfelt gesture a success every time:
• Remind yourself about the most out-standing quality in the person receivingyour thanks.
• Think about the nicest thing anyoneever said to you — and see if some-thing similar fits.
• Tell the person that their act of kind-ness went far beyond expectations andhow good it made you feel.
• If you fear spoken words will fail you,say it with a small but meaningful gift.Some of the more popular options areflowerpots, lucky charms, personalizedkeepsakes and quality chocolate like theappropriate, merci.
• Keep it light and use humour. Re-member that the object of your grati-tude has probably been in your shoes.

Iteach my kids to dreamand work for the futurebut remind them that
their journeys throughlife will not always go asplanned. They will meetroadblocks in the form ofunexpected challenges anddetours that, at first, maybring disappointment.
Soon after graduation,I chose to practise in myown hometown because Iexpected to look after myparents into old age.
In life, we won’t geteverything we expect andask for. Often, we get whatwe don’t deserve – bothgood and bad.
Spring is a bittersweettime for my family sincemy mom died unexpect-edly just after Easter in2003. Before that, I expect-ed both of them to seemy children grow up. Mymom would have lovedto see my daughter dance,my younger son play bassand my oldest son football.She would have taughtthem much about patience,love and generosity.
Life is a gift, but it’s likea gift from a best friend ora wise parent who knowsyou better than you knowyourself and knows whatyou need.
It is like a carefullywrapped present. Youhave to open it with curi-ous expectations and asense of adventure. Itwon’t be what it appearsto be. It won’t be whatyou expect. You may findtickets in a jewelry box ora bracelet in a shoebox. Forsure, you’ll be surprised.
When you finally openit and it’s not what youthink, at first you might bedisappointed, but ultim-ately it will be of greatvalue, just what you needto grow and to discovergreater happiness, andsomething to be treasured.
Too often we don’t rec-ognize or appreciate thegifts in our lives. It’s as ifyou received a gift card tothe spa, tickets to a great
show or a certificate formusic lessons and leaveit in a box on the shelf,forgotten and unused:potential experiences, les-sons and opportunities forhappiness never realizedand forever lost.
I believe the gifts we aregiven are only given to usin trust. We can’t hold ontothem forever, because noneof us will live forever.
Enjoy the gift of yourlife. See the relationshipsof the past as gifts. Whatwere you lucky to haveand to enjoy?
What blessings canyou count? What do youhave today that you didn’treally ask for but you canenjoy at this moment?
Each morning, youmay have expectations
about what the day willbring, but be open to thesurprises: the unexpectedchallenges and detours.Expect your journeythrough each day not tobe a straight line. Look atthe new opportunities foradventure, learning andhappiness that open up ateach turn.
When you receive thosegifts, take them out of thebox and share. The bestway to show your appreci-ation for life’s special giftsis to use them right away,and the most graciousthing to do in life is to giveforward.
On Saturday, May 7 atMetropolis in Metrotown,One Match is giving us alla chance to give the gift oflife in honour of our moth-
ers. There is a crucial needfor non-related stem celldonors in Canada. Stemcells can be lifesaving forthose fighting lymphoma,myeloma, leukemia andother blood disorders. Ifyou are healthy and age 17to 50, you can register tobe a potential match with asimple swab of the cheek.If in the future you arefound to be a match, thedonation process is almostas simple as a blood dona-tion.

Shiloh-Sixth Avenue United Churchstrives to be a welcoming place for people,but it hasn’t forgotten about the animals.
The church is once again hosting a petblessing, which is likely to feature critters infeathers, scale and fur. Ministry staff will beholding a pet blessing service on the lawnof the church on Sunday, May 1 at 2 p.m.
“We talk about God’s unconditional lovefor us, and one of the best examples of that
unconditional love is pets – especially dogs,but my cat’s pretty good at it,” said Rev.Shannon Tennant in a press release. “AndI’ve known some pretty attentive birds, aswell.”
Budgies, snakes, dogs, cats, hamstersand fish, as well as other non-human com-panions, are welcome to come with theirhuman companions – although it’s impor-tant the animals be properly contained.If someone has a pet that cannot attendbecause they are uncomfortable aroundstrangers are or are too young or not well,
their human companion is welcome tobring a photo.
Tennant, the minister at Shiloh-SixthAvenue United Church, launched the petblessing last year. She once attended a petblessing in Ontario whose attendees includ-ed llamas, horses, bugs and dogs and cats.
A press release regarding the pet bless-ing notes that pets provide companion-ship, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg.They promote social interactions, encour-age playfulness, exercise and laughter, andhave been shown to lower blood pressure
and cholesterol levels.“He’s calming, even after he’s stolen
the dishcloth to get someone to chase himaround the house,” said Mary Nichol, thechurch’s children, youth and families min-ister about her dog, Samson. “When he sitsbeside me, I just relax. And he’s always gladto welcome me home, no matter what.”
The pet blessing is the church’s wayto say “thank you” for all that pets offerpeople. The blessing will include somereadings, some prayers and a blessing andthank you to each pet that attends.

Showing what sport is all about
A made-in-Burnabyrooting section could showup at your next minorlacrosse game.
For the past few weeks,the players, support staffand coach of the junior BBurnaby Lakers lacrosseteam have been drop-ping in and making a lotof noise at selected youthhome games.
Armed with a multi-headed air horn and apride in the Burnaby green,the junior B Lakers blastoff encouragement to thehome team in a collectiveshow of support and com-munity.
“It’s huge for the guys.It makes us a solid team,and it inspires others,” saidBurnaby Jr. B head coachKerry Neratini. “I want toinstill in these guys thatthey are role models. The(new wood) floor is a hugesense of pride for the asso-ciation. It means a lot tome, and it means a lot tothem to do these things.”
At each game, theBurnaby juniors applaudthe good play and, at theend of the match, namea player who has workedhard to receive an auto-graphed game ball in thedressing room afterwards.
The player is then invit-ed to join the junior teamat a later league game.
“I had a lot of fun,”said 10-year-old JaysonBeauregard, who wasgiven the honour follow-ing a novice A1 match onApril 16. “I kept telling mymom, ‘I’m busy Saturday
night.’”When he got to the arena
with his father, Jayson wasmet by team captain JamesIrwin and introduced to allthe players.
Later, he took thewarmup on the new woodfloor at the Bill CopelandSports Centre and acted asthe team’s assistant coachon the bench.
He told them to go outand have fun, and evengave them pointers on thebench, which drew smilesand high-fives from thejunior B players.
“At the end of the game,(Irwin) said, ‘Hey boys,Jayson is leaving,’ andthey all came and crowdedaround me. The next dayat school in my journal,my teacher said we couldwrite about anything wewanted – it was so long.”
At first, the idea ofgrown young men goingoutandwatching littleguysplay, seemed odd, said 20-year-old Burnaby forwardBrandon MacNeil.
“I was surprised. ButI think it’s a great idea.It builds community andmore so, it helps build thegame,” MacNeil said. “Acouple of parents cameup to us and said it wasnice we came out and blewthe horn and supportedthe kids. People are tak-ing notice, so that is nice.
Hopefully it will contin-ue.”
And if the commitmentof the Burnaby juniors isany indication, it will.
Irwin, Robert Gilliamand assistant captainCurtis Koznecov are partof a core group, along withcoach Neratini, that havewholeheartedly endorsedthe positive initiative.
Two seasons ago,Neratini, then an assistantcoach with the Jr. B boys,got the team out to a cou-ple of minor games to helpboost attendance at theirown home matches.
This year, the brain-storming expanded onthe concept of what mightmake this season even bet-ter.
With the changingdemographics in the cityand player numbers onthe decline, keeping up thegreat tradition of juniorlacrosse in Burnaby was aconcern.
The boys decidedto make it a team thing,hatching the idea of select-ing a player of the gameand afterwards invitingthe youngster to become apart in their game.
“It’s fun. At first, wethought there wouldn’t beanything in it for us,” saidIrwin. “We went to thedressing room and signeda game ball, and had (theplayer) come onto the floorwith us. He was ecstatic. Iremember the look on hisface when we gave him theball. He appreciated it asmuch as we did.”
In fact that was allJayson was talking about,said Neratini.
“When he left, he wassmiling from ear to ear,and he felt eight feet high.The parents were verythankful.”
“It was so amazing forhim. He wants to get itagain,” said Jayson’s fatherBrian. “I thought it wasgreat.”
And that was the unex-pected benefit, said goalieRobert Gilliam.
“Honestly, lacrosseisn’t about being No. 1.It’s about being with yourteammates and havingfun,” said Gilliam.
“(Jayson) was so happy.… He’s still ecstatic, hewants to come out all thetime. We’re trying to growa community of lacrosseplayers in Burnaby.”
Koznecov says the ideahas proven to be a win-winfor everyone involved.
“I thought it’s reallyestablished a sense of pride

Spectators of the B.C.Junior Lacrosse Leaguemay have to wait until mid-May before getting anotherchance to see a better gameplayed.
What few fans whopried themselves awayfrom Game 7 of theVancouver/Chicago NHLhockey playoff witnessedthe defending Minto Cupchampion CoquitlamAdanacs beat the NewWestminster Salmonbellies9-4 at Queen’s Park Arenaon Tuesday.
Despite missing a heap-ing handful of startingplayers from their line-ups, both teams showed ahigh level of passing skillsagainst two solid-lookingdefensive systems.
The result was a sur-prisingly exciting contestseldom seen in the monthof April.
But it was Coquitlamthat dictated the tempothroughout the league’sseason opener.
The Adanacs took a 2-0lead midway through thefirst period, capitalizing ona pair of power play goalsfrom Eric Ransom and theRecord’s player of the game,Travis Cornwall.
Brandon Goodwin gotone goal back for the hometeam later in the period,but Coquitlam’s newestacquisition, Steve Fryerfrom Brampton, madesure the ‘Bellies got nocloser, stopping 45 NewWestminster shots en routeto his first win in the WestCoast league.
At the other end of thefloor, Salmonbellie keeperFrankie Scigliano made 31saves but gave up threegoals on the A’s powerplay.
New Westminstertrailed 6-3 after two peri-ods. Righthander LeifMydske tallied the hometeam’s only goal of thethird period, splitting apair of Adanac defendersdown low and scoring ashorthanded marker thatpared the deficit to 6-4.

in being a Burnaby Laker,”he said, adding the morepeople who come out to agame, the better the teamplays.
“It’s a simple formula,”Koznecov added.
“The more they likedoing what they’re doing,the more they will stickwith it.”
Jayson could not agreemore.
When he told his Grade4 school chums at Holy
Cross Elementary, onefriend answered, ‘Oh, Iwish I could play. I mightwant to play next year,”Jayson said.
And that’s preciselywhat the Burnaby juniorshoped would happen.
“If we get more kids tostay in the sport, I think weare winning,” Gilliam said.“We try our best. It’s not allabout winning, it’s keepingthe sport alive.”
Irwin agreed.“I haven’t done much
volunteering and thingslike that. This is sort ofmy chance to do somethingwithout getting paid for it.I got a sort of satisfaction,getting a young kid out toour game – something Inever had,” Irwin added.
As for Jayson, well, itcertainly appears that thiswill not be something thatthe excited youngster willsoon forget.
“Oh yeah, yeah, a lot,”he said. “I want to playforever.”

Juniors: It’s a win-win idea, players say
wasn’t getting it done,” said NewWestminster head coach Dan Perreault.
With 10 players not expected back untilmid-May, Perreault said it was an oppor-tunity for the newer players to make astatement that they belong.
“Right now, it’s just getting a real good
look at who can play,” Perreault added.“(The Adanacs) are the defending MintoCup champions, and we got a lot of workahead of us.”

Your Personal Mission StatementThis article is by Chris Newell, Career Coachand Facilitator with Transitions Career & BusinessConsultants.Many people may be familiar with a trend thatorganizations have now adopted whereby they
design, publicize and adhere to a company mission statement.These mission statements are created as a guide to promote the company’spurpose and values for its employees, customers and suppliers.When a company defines its values and principles publicly and commits toactions that support these values, they demonstrate integrity.Mission statements can also serve individuals as well as organizations.When putting together your mission statement, you are given anopportunity to reach deeper into what is really important to you in life.Most people long for a sense of meaning and purpose at some point intheir lives.The process of writing and analyzing your own mission statement givesdirection and clarification to your choices by defining your beliefs, yourvalues and what you want to make of your life. You can then use theseprinciples consistently as a guide to unify and direct all that you do so thatthere is meaning and purpose in your choices and your life.In order to write a mission statement, you need to ask yourself somechallenging questions such as: “What is my purpose in life?” “What istruly important to me?” “What gives life meaning to me?” “What do I haveto offer others?”A mission statement is a work in progress. It takes deep introspectionand often many rewrites to produce it in final form, but when you do,it is something you can use to make powerful and effective decisionsin your life and work. It challenges you to make sure you are living andworking with purpose and integrity. This will ultimately strengthen yourself-esteem, courage and determination.The Transitions Program, a free 3 week career exploration program isavailable to all unemployed people in the Lower Mainland.

Tim Stephens' Astral Reflections May 1 - 7★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Aries March 21 - April 19: Chase money. Yourcharm and magnetism hit high strokes all week –use this in the pursuit of money, or in love’s service.The main thing is, don’t waste this time – five ofeight planets are in Aries! This gives you extra kick,clout and luck – and hints that whatever happensnow is significant in terms of your entire 80 or 90years. Other than a bit of deception Wednesdaymorn, and a sluggish Saturday, this is a lucky,smooth week. Get things done! Two cautions: Apartner or competitor has the upper hand. Don’tfight. If you oppose authority you’ll lose.Taurus April 20-May 20: Your energy, charismaand effectiveness climb, especially Mondayonward. Get out, be seen, start significant projects.Your “world wide” luck is still a bit low, but thatwill change soon. June 4 will bring almost 13months of huge, decade-high luck, particularly infinances, investments, debt, sex, lifestyle changesand commitments in legal, educational, cultural ortravel areas that somehow turn your life around.So some of your energy right now might be well-spent preparing for future (near future!) action. Tapgovernment, charities, researchers: They will aid.Gemini May 21-June 20: Your energy is a bit low,so don’t put yourself in a “performance situation.”Rest, protect your health, dress sensibly, eat right.Fulfil obligations, but ignore those who clamour.You’re still in a period in which big wishes, life-mate needs and social yearnings are likely to befulfilled. Some things can prevent this: first, deep,heart-bending romance, creative outpourings ortaking big risks; second, investments, lifestylechanges, health, or “deep sex.” Of these, the“second” will be lucky June 2011 to June 2012;the “first” will begin to improve after mid-2012.Wish!
Cancer June 21-July 22: You optimism, popularityand delight rise (all week, but especially Monday/Tuesday). Social joys, flirtations, wish fulfilment andentertainment arrive! Make and accept invitations.Wishes might particularly come true in career, statusand business areas. Something really significanthas been building here for some months, and haseither already offered a big step up for you, or willsoon. Be alert, eager and ambitious. Two things canimpede your advance: a partner, mate or competitor(or a “stubborn public”) or a home situation thatdemands compromise. Rest, plan midweek.Leo July 23-Aug. 22: Be ambitious – you canmake strides upward now. Although you might notsee discernible progress, you’re “preparing theway” for a great run of luck in career, business,status and prestige areas from early June rightinto June 2012. So plug away, especially Monday.A major trend still flows through your areas of law,love, culture, far travel, education, publishing andintellectual endeavours. This is a lucky, surprisinginfluence, so be ready to say “Ah, ha!” and embracewhat comes – now into 2018, these zones (e.g.,travel, school) could bring your mate for life!Happiness, midweek!Virgo Aug. 23-Sept. 22: The big action, significantoccurrences remain heavily weighted toward sexualbonds, intimate commitments, lifestyle changes,research, secrets, financial actions, investments,debts, consequences – and, overall, luckily so! Buta new element enters now, an element of peaceand understanding, of wisdom and compassion.You can decide to make a commitment while you’reclear about the results. Legalities, love and ethicsalso enter. This can bring sex with love, great co-operation with another, investments that are ethicalalso. Monday, Thursday, Friday support your efforts.
Libra Sept. 23-Oct. 22: Though deep sexual,financial and health themes arise in May, a strongand lucky accent remains on relationships,marriage,business partnerships, fame and public relations,contracts and negotiations, litigation, relocation andopportunities in general. You’re cautious, 2010 tolate 2012 – that’s good, but caution seldom grabsthe prize. You have to leap, too. You know there’s atleast one thing or person to leap to, and of course,reasons to and not to. My advice: Leap. A love affair,pregnancy, new financial picture, new domicile,even new country could result. Wow – life!Scorpio Oct. 23-Nov. 21: Though most of the luckand action of your life remain in the machinery, workand health realm, that won’t last past June. Maybrings intriguing meetings, partnership proposals,dealings with others, new contacts – and, perhaps,ideas/visions of new places you’d like to be, eitheracross the globe or up the ladder of success.Maintain your equilibrium and sense of diplomacythis month, don’t fight or argue. Realize some ofthe new urges and new contacts that arise nowhint at, might even develop into, the huge, luckyopportunities that arrive this June to June 2012.(Hints Monday.)Sagittarius Nov. 22-Dec. 21: Powerful luck,trends, movement, change still affect your romantic,creative, chi ld-oriented, pleasure-seeking,speculative and sports zones (to June 4), but anothertrend moves in through May: Work. Work, health,machinery, duties, all that good stuff. As these don’tcombine that well, usually, I’d split my time betweenthem. Keep your eye on that quiet, deep long-termgoal, too. Monday brings work success. Life’s filledwith opportunities Wednesday noon to Friday noon– if you know how to co-operate, to accent another’sneeds/desires. Soon, a major work project!
Capricorn Dec. 22-Jan. 19: The weeks aheadsuccessfully combine security and expansion.Although romance,creativity,speculation andpleasureare accented in May, your luck in real estate, home,security, retirement, “Mother Nature” and similarzones continues strongly – but only to early June.If you’ve been hesitating about buying (repairing,renovating) that home or starting that retirement fundor garden, or about having a child, you should actsoon. (One exception: real estate might be luckier ifyou wait until after May 10.) Romance Tuesday.Tacklechores midweek to Friday. Diplomacy, Saturday!Aquarius Jan. 20-Feb. 18: Pay attention toyour “base,” especially Monday/Tuesday – familymembers, home, security, these deserve attentionall month. You might have frequent visitors, or betravelling around town a lot, texting or phoning – butas the weeks pass, this travel and talk gently subside,to bring you, by June, into a year of quiet, peacefuldomestic bliss. Or luck, at least, for some home-based friction will exist, mid-May through June.Romance and/or creativity, games and gambles pullyouWednesday to Friday. A Gemini might be involved.All’s fine! Chores, Saturday. Rest, nap all week.Pisces Feb. 19-March 20: This is a pretty smooth,easy week – though Saturday (May 7) might be alittle frustrating or rocky. The accent lies on shorttrips, acquaintances, siblings, paperwork, details,messaging. Be curious, follow your nose. Sincemoney matters are still blessed (into early June) thebest course would be to use this communicationsand fact-oriented period in the pursuit of money, tocommunicate with clients or potential employers,VIPs, etc. (Monday is good for this.) Your home life,family, security and diet (nutrients) gain importanceWednesday-Friday: Good results!
