Spinal Decompression Allows Back Painto Heal...Without Drugs or SurgeryDecompression relieves pressure that builds up on thediscs and nerves. The task of relieving pain comes aboutas a result of drawing the leaking gel of a herniated discback into place. Decompression achieves this by creating

negative pressure within the disc, referred to as negativeintradiscal pressure.

Jeremy [email protected] father has a lot of explaining to do after crashing his car

and being arrested for possibly being impaired, all with a four-year-old inside the vehicle.The incident began in Burnaby around 2 p.m. on Friday,

Jan. 2, after a motorist witnessed a car driving erratically andthen crashing into a traffic barrier at Lougheed Highway andProduction Way.The vehicle suffered extensive damage but kept driving.Police said the concerned motorist called 911 and followed

the car all the way through Coquitlam to Como Lake Avenueand Mariner Way, where the driver was finally pulled over byMounties. Thats when police discovered a four-year-old girlin the vehicle. Fortunately, she wasnt hurt and was quicklyreturned to her mothers care.RCMP Jamie Chung said police had reason to believe

the man was impaired, so he was arrested and taken to theBurnaby detachment to be processed.No charges have been laid so far.Chung said its not often police come across a situation of a

possible impaired driver with a young child in the car.This is obviously very serious and a concern because not

only are you risking your own life, but youre risking the life ofyour child in the back of the car, he told the Tri-Cities NOW.In this case it was very fortunate no one was hurt.The man arrested is from Surrey, but he was not identified.Police also praised the motorist who called 911 and followed

the car until RCMP could catch up.Chung said the motorist did the right thing by following the

suspect vehicle at a safe distance.Police are also reminding the public about the Report

Impaired Drivers program, or RID, which urges people to call911 if they see a suspected drunk driver on the road.Motorists are allowed to use their cellphones to make a call

to 911.

Sinkhole is thesecondonemaintenance, the contractor needs to inspect and replace thecutter head tools.During this process, ground material can shift and create

holes, the ministry spokesperson said, adding thats why thearea is fenced and monitored.The ministry noted that, as a precaution, that section of

Cecile Drive would be closed during part of Tuesday to ensurethe safety of the public while maintenance work on the tunnel-boring machine continues.However, the ministry did not offer any information on

whether residents could expect more sinkholes to appear aswork continues with the boring machine.In late October, a deep sinkhole opened up in a parking lot

of a building on Chateau Place in Port Moody, also attributedto the maintenance of the boring machine.But the second sinkhole has at least one Port Moody city

councillor asking some questions.Coun. Rick Glumac said he trusts the people working on

the Evergreen Line are taking care of the current situation,but hes worried what might happen once construction crewsare gone.My concern would be that I would like to have some assur-

ance that further sinkholes wont develop once construction iscompleted and theyve left, he told the Tri-Cities NOW.Glumac suggested the two incidents are also revealing a

concern some residents had that the area is susceptible to sink-holes. The councillor said he intends to bring the issue up thenext time construction officials meet with council.It is concerning that this is happening and I hope that they

can adjust their operation so it doesnt happen any more,Glumac said.

Road rules protectcityworkers, othersJohn [email protected]

Road crews in Coquitlamare reminding motorists toremember the new 70-40rule that went into effect lastweek.Those numbers apply to

changes made to the MotorVehicle Act requiring allmotorists to slow down to 40km/h in areas with a speedlimit under 80 km/h wherevehicles displaying flashinglights are working.All of the roadways in

Coquitlam serviced by citycrews have a speed limit of70 km/h or under includ-ing stretches of LougheedHighway.The new regulations also

call onmotorists to slowdownto 70 km/h where the speedlimit is 80 km/h or above.

Anything we can do tolessen the risk to ourselvesand to the public by givingspace and slowing speedsdown a little bit is an all-around positive change, DanMooney, Coquitlams man-ager of roads and traffic oper-ations said in an interview.The rules previously

applied only to officialvehicles flashing their lights:police, fire, ambulance, towtrucks, commercial vehiclesafety enforcement vehicles,park rangers and conserva-tion officers.Changes that went into

effect on Jan. 1 include anyvehicle displaying a flash-ing red, blue or yellow light:city works crews, highwaymaintenance workers, BCAAvehicles, utility workers, landsurveyors, animal controlworkers and garbage collect-

ors, among others.Mooney said giving

more room to works crews where space permits isas important, if not more so,than reducing speed.At best, if you dont move

over, you spray them witha big rooster tail of water,Mooney said.But the reality is, you

could hydroplane, lose con-trol and end up striking themor their vehicle.In the case of city crews,

there are numerous types ofjobs that require the flash-ing lights, including clearingcatch basins, plowing snow,fixing street lights, cleaningand replacing signage andpatching pot holes.I see this as being a really

significant improvement forour crews safety and for thepublic, Mooney said.

If youre like me, you are prob-ably tired of reading or watchingall those lists of the Top 10 newsstories from the past year. Yes,yes, I know: the teachers labourdispute was a big story, but do we needto be told that again and again?

Instead of looking back, lets look for-ward and try to figure out which storieswere all going to be talking about somuch in the coming year.

There will be unpredictable events, ofcourse, that will garner a lot of headlinecoverage: major crimes, political con-troversies, spectacular accidents, cuteanimals that go missing (really), andthe like.

But some big events in the politicalarena are predictable and are sittingright there on the horizon, just waitingto take over the water cooler conversa-tion. I can think of several separate,distinct events or issues that will get alot of news coverage in the coming year,and all of them will have a direct impacton the lives of most British Columbians.Get ready to read and hear a lot about

these in 2015:

1. The transit plebiscitein Metro Vancouver inMarchBy the time you get your mail-in

plebiscite ballot, you wont be able tolook at so much as a transit bus withoutthinking about expensive transportationprojects and how they should be paidfor. Thats because you are about to beinundated with all kinds of information(from stories in newspapers, radio andtelevision, to pamphlets and advertis-ing) expressing support for both sides ofthe plebiscite question.Those advocating the yes answer to

whether the sales tax should be boosted

a half point will be just as aggressive and loud, and non-stop as thosepushing the no response to the pro-posed tax hike. You wont be able to turnon a television newscast, radio or opena newspaper without running smackinto people like Port Coquitlam MayorGreg Moore (an ardent Yes advocate)and Jordan Bateman of the CanadianTaxpayers Federation, making theirpitches, over and over again.

2. The federal election inOctoberThe federal vote may not be until

the fall, but the campaign is now start-ing in earnest. The Conservatives havebegun running new ads featuring PrimeMinister Stephen Harper, and will con-tinue to run ads that attack and mockfederal Liberal leader Justin Trudeau(and the federal government will con-tinue to air ads praising its economicpolicies, with taxpayers footing the billfor them for much of the year).All parties are well into their riding

nomination processes, and candidatesshould start filling those positions inincreasingly large numbers in the weeksahead. The three main party leaders willstep up their travel schedules look forall three to make more and more swingsthrough B.C., which has six extra seatsup for grabs this time around as theirpace will become frenetic.

The latest polls suggest Harper andthe Conservatives are hanging on totheir base, while the Liberals have madean impressive recovery with the vot-ers, and the NDP has slipped back intoits traditional territory of the distantthird-place. But polls can be wrong, ofcourse (hello the 2013 B.C. provincialelection). Still, dont count Harper out:his base, being older, is more likely toactually vote than those of his chiefopponents.

3. Pipeline protestsYou didnt seriously think these

were over because the one on BurnabyMountain ended? Come on, were justgetting started here folks.A great divide is beginning to take

hold, and its going to play out in B.C.like nowhere else in the country. Thatdivide is over energy policies, as a vocalminority wants to end all oil shipmentsfrom Albertas vast oil sands project.

4. The Site C damconstructionBC Hydro says it is aiming to begin

construction in July. But that seemsoptimistic at best, given how many legalchallenges against the dam have beenfiled, with more on the way.All four of these issues are linked by

the fact that all of them contain someelement of political protesting, which isfitting, given that protesting is almost aBritish Columbians birthright.And youre going to see a lot of it this

year, whether its targeted at a transittax hike, an oil pipeline, a federal polit-ical party or a hydroelectric dam.Welcome to 2015!

Keith Baldrey is chief politicalreporter for Global BC.

The new year is often a time when we sit backand reflect on the year that was and come upwith a few resolutions for the coming year exercise more, floss more, spend less, eathealthier For 2015, the helpful and ambitious Mounties at the

Coquitlam RCMP have put together a list of five resolutionsworthy of consideration for anyone in any community toadd to their resolution lists:1. Be a better driver.High-risk driving causes an average of 6,500 serious

crashes each year in B.C.You are more than 23 times more likely to crash if you

text while driving. If you cant resist temptation, put yourphone in the trunk to avoid distraction. Beyond smart-phones, anything that takes your mind, eyes or hands offthe road is a distraction and can potentially cause a crash.A yellow traffic light does not mean speed up. It means

prepare to stop as long as it is safe to do so.Always leave a safe distance between yourself and

the vehicle in front of you. A safe distance depends onweather and road conditions, but the two-second ruleworks in good driving conditions.

Speed is one of the most frequently cited contributingfactors in police-reported crashes. A lot of time, effort andexpertise goes into setting speed limits. All you have to dois follow them.Failing to signal increases your chance of causing a

crash.2. Volunteer.This one speaks for itself: volunteering makes a better

community all around.3. Be a better neighbour.See something suspicious or bothersome in your neigh-

bourhood? Let the police know, for your neighbours sake.4. Be a better digital citizen.Learn how to protect yourself and your kids in digital

environments like Facebook, Twitter and others.5. Be connected to your community.Its an important way to help keep yourself, your neigh-

bours and the whole community safer.Resolve to make the new year a safer one.

CITY SHOULDTAKEAMORESCIENTIFICAPPROACHTOWATER RATESRe: City changes water

rate fees: single-family topay more, multi-family topay less, Wednesday, Dec.10.I do not claim to be an expert

in these matters. However, mycommon sense tells me that acomparison of the use of water incondos as opposed to single-fam-ily dwellings is erroneous, unfairand definitely unscientific.One does not compare apples

and oranges, or draw conclusionson the basis of some generaliza-tions or alleged assumptions.I have lived on a cul-de-sac in

Coquitlam for a lengthy periodof time and I have yet to countthe number of times other home-owners washed their cars. It isvery rare, albeit there are onaverage two vehicles per propertyor more for some. During thehot weather, our lawns turnedbrown and only new growth waswatered outside of the designatedtime.A lot of homeowners, includ-

ing myself, collect rain water andwith the rainfall throughout theyear, there is plenty for wateringindoor and outdoor plants andlawns. My lawn is a combina-tion of grass and moss, hence itretains moisture quite well. Onlyone property on our cul-de-sachas a sprinkler system installed.My son, on the other hand,

lives in a condo and I am, attimes, quite envious of the well-watered and nicely trimmedgreen areas around the complex.This could not occur withoutappropriate and generous water-ing.I suspect that if energy is being

monitored for homeowners orcondo dwellers, then water sup-ply could also be subject to suchmonitoring and payment wouldthen be determined on the basisof the usage of individual cit-izens regardless of the numberof occupants per condo or house.Perhaps, the city could alsoinitiate projects and encouragecitizens to collect rain water. It isnot rocket science.I consider my neighbourhood

to be reasonably conscious ofthe issues at stake and very pro-tective of our planet. It would berather silly of me to assume thatevery homeowner in Coquitlamthinks like we do and is consider-

ate of their rights and those ofother people in the commun-ity. Therefore, more educationendorsed by the city would beappropriate.Instead of accusing some

homeowners of secondary suites,or watering their lawns outsideof the designated times, or acti-vating sprinkler systems duringthe rainy days, we should takea closer look at our own use ofwater before we put the blame onothers.How often have you allowed

the water to run while brushingyour teeth? How long is yourmorning shower? Do you useyour dishwasher or do you washyour dishes by hand letting thewater run incessantly?I would suggest a more scien-

tific approach to this entire prob-lem before it becomes a problem.It is not the size of ones home,be it a condo or a house, whichdetermines how much water isbeing wasted daily, monthly orannually.It is entirely up to an individ-

ual citizen to keep track anduse water in a smart manner toensure that the reservoirs will notdry out for generations to come.

TRANSLINK ISMORE THANJUST TRANSITRe: Poll question Do

you support an increaseto the PST of 0.5% to fundtransit?According to your poll, quite

a few people dont want to paythat tax because they never usetransit. Dont they know thatTransLink is not just buses andSkyTrain but also a couple ofbridges and some roads? Do theylike being stuck on a slow-movingfreeway because we have a transitsystem that is much too small fora metropolitan area with 2.5 mil-lion people?I dont have a car by choice

but dont mind paying for thefreeways. I only had one minorsurgery in my life, but dont mindpaying medical premiums (eventhough they are free in mostprovinces). I dont have childrenbut dont mind paying for schools,teachers, etc. (never mind thatone your kids will eventuallypay my pension).

former employee of PacificCoast Terminals (PCT) who issuing the company, is sched-uled to start on Jan. 4, 2016.According to a notice

of civil claim filed in BCSupreme Court last June,Smith is suing Pacific CoastTerminals after the companyterminated his employmentand cancelled a severancepackage it was offering.The allegations made in

the notice of civil claim areunproven.Smith alleged he was man-

ager of maintenance andengineering at the time ofhis dismissal in October 2013and was terminated with-out just cause and withoutnotice.When his employment

was terminated, Smithalleged PCT offered him aseverance of approximately$390,000 and career coun-selling in return for releasingall claims.But a few days later,

according to the notice ofcivil claim, PCT unilaterallyand without reason revokedthe severance offer and noti-fied Smith it was investigat-ing him for misconduct.Smith stated in his claim

that PCT never gave him anyparticulars of the misconductbut, a couple of months later,PCT alleged it had cause toterminate his employment byreferencingmaterial foundonits system in personal foldersover which Smith alleges hehad a reasonable expecta-tion of privacy.In a response to the suit,

PCT has denied the allega-tions made in the civil claim.According to court docu-

ments, PCT said it terminatedSmith due to him misleadingthecompanysseniormanage-ment with respect to detailsand procedures regardingPort Metro Vancouver con-struction permitting require-ments.Court documents also

claim Smith stored sexuallyexplicit images and videos onhis work computer in breachof PCTs technology policy,assisted a competitor withPCTs confidential informa-tion and used his manage-

ment position to inappro-priately assist a subordinate

employee with whom he hada romantic relationship.

OperationRedNose raises $32,940 for kidsJeremy [email protected]

It might have to change itsname from Operation RedNose to Operation Success.The service that drives you

and your car home for a char-itable donation has recordedanother record year in theTri-Cities.According to Operation

Red Nose, the service pro-vided 1,011 rides betweenthe Tri-Cities, Burnaby and

New Westminster, comparedto 936 the previous year, foran eight-per-cent increase in2014.The dollar amount raised

from the season-long pro-gram also increased to$32,940 from a 2013 total of$27,600.The service is amajor fund-

raiser for KidSport Tri-Cities.The Tri-Cities chap-

ter of Operation Red Noseis now the largest in MetroVancouver and the third lar-

gest in B.C., behind Kamloopsand Prince George.I think theres better

awareness of the program,how it works and that thedonations go to KidSport,OperationRedNose Tri-Citiescoordinator Chris Wilson saidin a statement.The community has been

very supportive of KidSportover the years so when theyget a chance to support it,theyre pretty generous. Wealso provided rides for a

number of Christmas partiesand many of the companieswere very generous too.He noted the donations

will help about 150 kids playa season of sports their fam-ilies would otherwise not beable to afford.Operation RedNose, which

operates during four week-ends and on New Years Eve,uses a team of volunteersto drive a client and theircar home, for a donation.Volunteers work in teams of

three, with two driving theclient in the clients vehicleand the third followingbehind in another vehicle.New Years Eve proved to

be the busiest night for thecampaign, with 180 rides inthe area.Weve been very lucky to

have been able to recruit somany volunteers specificallyfor new years over the lastnumber of years, Wilsonsaid. This year we had 59people volunteer just for New

Years Eve. Thats pretty phe-nomenal and, in general, thevolunteers have been abso-lutely amazing.The service expanded in

2012 to include Burnaby andNew Westminster, and a por-tion of donations goes towardKidSport organizations inthose communities.In its first seven years of

operation, the local chapterprovided 3,290 rides, earn-ing $95,833 for KidSport Tri-Cities.

it should be all about activeplay. The following tips aredesigned to help them enjoyas much active play as we didas kids.

1.DailyRoutines:Helpyourkids build physical activityinto their daily routines withactivities like walking or cyc-ling to school with friends.2. Its in the bag: Pack their

backpacks with equipmentthat promotes active playat school recess and lunchbreaks: a soccer ball, skippingrope, chalk, Frisbee, basket-ball, etc. Be sure to make surethe kids are dressed for win-ter play.3.At lunchandafter school:

Encourage your kids to play

active games with friends andto join school teams. .4. Swimming Lessons:

Register for swimming les-sons and stick with themuntil your kids are competentswimmers. Swimming is a lifeskill and making a splash atthe local pool is a terrific wayfor kids to play.5. Be a model: Be a role

model for your child. Activeparents tend to havemore act-ive children. Introduce yourchild to some of the activitiesyou enjoy and participate insome of the active games andactivities they enjoy too.6. End of day play: Dont let

your child sit in front of theTV or computer after school.Instead, register them foractive programs, have theminvite a friend over for activeoutdoor play, or better yet, getactive with them.7. Evening, weekend and

holiday fun: Make evenings,weekends and holidays act-ive. Plan your activities as afamily, write them on the cal-endar, and anticipate the fun.8. Limit screen time. Set

rules and limit daily screentime or have your childrenearn it. For example, yourchild might earn 20 minutesof screen time for every hourtheyre active.9. Educate others about

inactivity: Make sure yourchilds daycare and schoolknows that physical activityis a priority for you and drawtheir attention to Canadasphysical inactivity crisis. Askthem what theyll be doing toaddress inactivity.10. Track it: Buy your child

a pedometer to wear andencourage them to strive forat least 10,000 steps a day.You might also equip yourchilds bicycle with an odom-

eter to help them track thedistance they bike in a day,

Consider hosting a kids-friendly dinnerChildren do notoften attenddinner parties.Adults with chil-dren typicallyleave the kids with a babysit-ter when attending a dinnerparty with colleagues orfriends.But some hosts choose to

make their dinner partieskid-friendly. This can makethings easier on guests,who wont have to go to thetrouble or expense of hiring ababysitter for the night.It also can make things

easier on hosts with childrenof their own and dont wantto add finding a sitter to theirlist of things to do in the daysleading up to the party.Kids can add some life

to a dinner party, but hostsmay want to employ a fewstrategies to ensure theirkid-friendly dinner partiesare enjoyable for adults andchildren alike. Feed the kids first. Kids

cant ignore their appetites aslong as their adult counter-parts, so make sure dinnerfor the kids is served once allof them have arrived.Choose kid-friendly fare

like pizza or macaroni andcheese so kids are more likelyto eat and not complain ofhunger later in the evening.Feeding the kids first alsomakes it easier for adults toenjoy uninterrupted conver-sation when its their turn tosit down and eat. Keep the kids enter-

tained. Whether its a movie,a board game or another dis-traction, finding somethingto keep the kids entertainedthroughout the night shouldbe a priority for hosts. Aselection of movies that kidscan choose from might be

your best bet, as films thatare between 90 and 120 min-utes long can keep young-sters occupied for much ofthe night. Let kids watchtheir movies in a playroomthats separate from whereadult guests will be gatheringprior to dinner, and periodic-ally check in on the kids asthe night progresses. Providesome snacks like popcorn oreven some candy to create anight at the movies atmos-phere for kids. Remind kids to be gra-

cious hosts. When choosingactivities for kids, remindyour own children that itstheir responsibility to begracious hosts, even if thatmeans playing games theyarent interested in or watch-ing movies they have alreadyseen. Let youngsters knowin advance that if they ful-fill their responsibilities athosts they can choose how tospend the following day orweekend. Choose an adult entree

thats simple to prepare. Nomatter how well behavedkids may be before andduring a dinner party,hosts should not add totheir already considerableworkload by preparing anespecially complicated mealfor their adult guests. Keepthings simple, especially ifyou are preparing a separatemeal for the kids. Much of

the stress of hosting a dinnerparty comes with prepar-ing the meal, and that mayonly prove more stressfulif you are preparing twomeals while simultaneouslycatering to the needs of youryoungest guests. Consider hiring a baby-

sitter. Sometimes hiringa babysitter makes senseeven when mom and dadare home. A babysitter canlook after the kids while theparents are elsewhere in thehome enjoying a good mealand great company. Adults

attending the party withtheir children can split thecost of a babysitter, even if heor she charges extra to lookafter several kids at once.Hosting a kid-friendly

dinner party can make for amemorable night for parentsand their children. Hosts canmake the night even betterby employing several strat-egies to make the party feellike a more traditional affaireven if the kids are in thenext room.

The take-away from a basketball trip to Hawaiiisnt measured in tans and big waves.Both the Terry FoxRavens andHeritageWoods

Kodiaks are aiming to use last months holidaysas a tangible turning point for great things as theB.C. senior AAAA boys basketball season kicksinto a higher gear.And theres no better place to show that lesson

than at this weeks Legal Beagle Invitational atTerry Fox.The Ravens, ranked fifth in pre-holiday prov-

incial poll, want nothing more than to extendtheir stamp to their host tourney. Co-coach SteveHanson said the teams strong results at a Oahutournament, coupled with a 79-69 victory overNo. 3-rated Walnut Grove on the weekend, aregreat signs.We went 3-1 in Hawaii and took it as a great

team experience, he noted. [Against WalnutGrove], weve played them in the first game ofthe new year for a few years now and the lastcouple of years we lost those games... Our boyscame in pretty amped up and played well.Led by Grade 12 shooting guard Liam

Hancocks 37 points, the Port Coquitlam crewlooked refreshed and recharged after the holi-days.Theyll need to be as the lineup this week is

fierce, says Hanson.Prior to the holidays, the Ravens suffered

a rare setback, falling 101-93 to No. 2 rankedOak Bay. The Kodiaks, meanwhile, battled hardbut fell 64-57 to Holy Cross in their first test of2015.Hoop fans are in for a treat beginningThursday

when a number of the best teams in B.C. hit theFox gym to measure their skills against eachother.The Legal Beagle Invitational has tradition-

ally attracted a good assortment of powerhouseprograms, and this year is no different. All nineB.C. teams were in the most recent B.C. AAAApoll, including No. 1 Burnaby South, WalnutGrove, fourth-rated Vancouver College and No.7 Kelowna. The lone outlier is Edmontons HarryAinlay, who are considered among the top-threein their province.Heritage Woods, who hold down the No. 10

spot, begin Thursdays preceedings, 3:15 p.m.against Van College, followed by Foxs showdownwith honourable mention Cowichan at 5 p.m.The final two games on opening day pitWalnut

Grove against Kelowna at 6:45 p.m., and Ainlay

versus Kits at 8:30 p.m.The games begin again 10 a.m. Friday when

Burnaby South faces the Woods-VC winner,while the Fox-Cowichan victor takes on honour-

able mention Tamanawis at 11:45 a.m.The semifinals are slated for 6:45 and 8:30

p.m. on Friday, with a championship final onSaturday at 7:30 p.m.

CAMPBELL SCORES FOR UMASSTo no ones surprise, Port Coquitlams Evan Campbell is

enjoying his sophomore season at UMass-Lowell.The second-year forward with the NCAA Div. I River Hawks

played a big role in that clubs championship run at the all-Hockey East Mariucci Classic last week, where No. 7-rankedUMass disposed of rival Merrimack 3-1 in the final.Campbells sixth marker of the season capped a comeback

that saw the Hawks take the lead with just 3:49 left to play.A day earlier, the Edmonton Oilers 2013 fifth round draft

pick set the tone by posting a goal and two assists in the teams7-3 victory over RIT.As a rookie, the Terry Fox alumnus netted nine goals and two

assists over 34 games. This season, Campbell has six goals and11 assists, second in team scoring, over 18 games and has beentwice named the River Hawks player of the week.Campbell played two seasons with the Langley Rivermen of

SECOND PLACE FOR DANIELSThe bright lights and pressure situation caught the Daniels

rink off guard in the Tim Hortons B.C. Junior Womens curlingchampionships last week in Parksville.The Delta-based rink, which includes Anmores Dezaray

Hawes, placed second after an 8-2 loss to Kamloops Brownrink.In their first year together and coming from three different

clubs, the Daniels team were up against a squad that for themost part had been together for the past nine years.After staking out a perfect 7-0 run through the round-robin

portion of the tourney, the loss stung all the more, said Hawes,17.We were all playing very well and beat them in [round-

robin play], noted the teams second. In the final we justwerent at our best.The Coquitlam Curling Clubs Egan rink, meanwhile, hit

some rough ice early in the competition en route to a 1-6 rec-ord. The squad, skippered by Briana Egan, posted its lone winin dramatic fashion, overturning a 5-2 deficit after six ends to

RAPIDS BEGIN 2015WITH AWINThe Riverside Rapids continue to round into form a form

that sees them atop the provincial rankings after six weeks ofsenior girls basketball action.The Rapids knocked off the Maple Ridge Ramblers 65-38

to begin 2015 on familiar footing, thanks to a well-balancedoffence.Grade 10 guard Shae Sanchez, who already has two sea-

sons of AAA competition on her resume, led the charge with11 points, including three treys. A trio of shooters OziNwabuko, Talia Tvergyak and senior Zuzia Zdziechowski contributed 10 points apiece. Nwabuko would also rack up 10rebounds. Chipping in nine points, all from three-point range,was Stephanie West.The Rapids ended 2014 with a strong showing at their own

A Tournament for Emily, which saw them suffer their first lossof the season.After posting 13 straight wins, including victories over then-

No. 1 Oak Bay, Brookswood and Fleetwood Park, they came upjust short in a 57-56 setback to Fraser Valley rivalW.J.Mouat in

SPORTS SHORTS

Shaking off a bad result with a goodeffort is the kind of resolution ChrisTai can get behind.The Coquitlam Express netminder

was front-and-centre Saturday as thedefendingB.C.HockeyLeague champsventured into Langley and skated offwith a 4-3 victory.Tai,a19-year-oldNorthDeltanative,

was sharp in turning back 36 shots.It helped erase the taste of a 6-1

setback to the same Rivermen a dayearlier. The motivation on Saturdaywas clear, remarked the netminder.Definitely revenge, Tai said with

a grin. Theres no way Id come inagainst a team that I lost 6-1, playedbad against [and] see a repeat. I thinkeveryone wanted to win.It was also the final junior game

for veteran Cody Boyd who due toNCAA rules is unable to play past his21st birthday.It was the clubs fourth win in five

games, as they have posted an 11-7-1-2 record over the past two months.Inmanyof thosewins, Tai andwing-

er Corey Mackin played key roles.Mackin,who leads theBCHL in scor-

ing with 37 goals in 38 games, wouldnet what would prove to be the gamewinner Saturday on a shorthandedbreakaway with 2:10 left.Langley, who trailed by two goals

most of the night, would close the gapwith 57 seconds left, creating a littlemore drama than necessary.Langleys dangerous at any time

and they have the weapons to tie itup in a hurry, remarked Coquitlamcoach Barry Wolff. When they scoredit was like, Oh my, theres 57 secondsleft. But we battled through it andheld on.Rookie Brett Supinski, who sits sec-

ond overall in league scoring, wouldtally once and set up two others, whileBrendan Lamont and Owen Stout alsoscored.Coquitlam visits Penticton tonight,

with the league-leading Vees com-ing to the Poirier Sports Centre, 7p.m. on Friday. The Express wrap upa four-game week with road gamesin Nanaimo and Victoria on Saturdayand Sunday.
