Fijian PM Frank Bainimarama Vows To

Jail Dissidents Planning To Overthrow
Government
Fijian Prime Minister Frank Bainimarama

has promised to jail dissidents for "many
years", including those based overseas,
that he claimed were plotting to
overthrow his government amid reports
of attempts in the Pacific nation to set up
a breakaway state.
More than 50 people have been arrested
and charged with sedition in recent
months, with Mr Bainimarama vowing
to crush any attempt at insurrection as he
highlighted the alleged role of nationals
living overseas.
In a speech last Saturday, Mr Bainimarama
said those allegedly plotting against the
country included "certain high-profile
figures in Australia".
Mr Bainimarama, who seized power in a
2006 coup, did not name any individuals
specifically but said encouraging sedition
is "a serious offence".
"The hand of the law is very long. And
rest assured that the authorities in Fiji
will not rest until you are brought to
justice," he said.
"They will not succeed. And if you are
foolish enough to join them, you will be
severely punished and could spend many
years in jail."
His comments came after immigration
director Nemani Vuniwaqa confirmed to
the media that Bainimarama had banned
Australian-based Fiji-born Mereoni Kirwin
from entering the country because she was
"in attempts to form a so-called Christian
state in (provinces) Ra and Nadroga".
Separately, authorities had also claimed

Poor Written English: PM
The Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama

says there has been a steady deterioration
in the quality of English expression in
the country over the years.
And he said the problem was
unfortunately across the board.
We see it in our schools, our tertiary
institutions, government, the private sector
and even in the media-far too many people
make basic errors of spelling, grammar
and sentence construction, he said.
He said he had seen even the most senior
civil servants, who were unable to write
in the English language with clarity,

simplicity and in the correct manner.

Instead of choosing simple words, they use
big ones as if to demonstrate to everyone
that theyre educated, the PM said.
He said although English was not our mother
tongue, it was our national language used in
all official communications and the medium
of teaching and we needed to master it.
Finglish Fiji English may be okay

around the grog bowl but we need to meet
basic international standards and generally
speaking, we are falling short of the mark.
The PM made these comments at the Fiji
National University Inaugural Alumni
Dinner and Awards Night at the Grand
Pacific Hotel in Suva.

Sitiveni Rabuka Resigns From SODELPA

Sitiveni Rabuka confirmed that he had
resigned from SODELPA after his
membership fee was paid.
Mr Rabuka, a former prime minister, said it
was a matter of principle not the $2 fee.
He said he had informed the partys
general secretary Pio Tabaiwalu. He said
there were people in the party including
Opposition leader Ro Teimumu Kepa
who still did not accept him.
He said SODELPA was heading to selfdestruct.
His decision to pull out came after
SODELPA president Ratu Naiqama
Lalabalavu and Ro Teimumu issued a
joint statement after a meeting in Suva.
Ratu Naiqama and Ro Teimumu said:
We affirm our political commitment and
support for each other and we resolve to
be steadfast in the face of all the efforts
to divide us.
We both have dual roles to play with our
resolve with our respective responsibilities
as heads of our confederacies as well as
our political obligations as party president
604.510.4088
and party leader.

Ratu Naiqama had called Mr Rabuka last
Friday offering him one of the three vicepresidential positions in the partys annual
general meeting in Suva on Saturday.
It is understood the joint statement by the
two leaders must have upset Mr Rabuka
who genuinely felt that Ratu Naiqama
was on his side.
Ratu Naiqama has now upset the group
that had lobbied hard to invite Mr
Rabuka privately. The group felt that the
party needed the leadership experience
of Mr Rabuka to bolster its chances of
winning the 2018 general election.
He was part of a plan to back the proposed
amendments to the partys constitution
which aim to modernize the party to be
compliant with the current political realities
or face the danger of becoming irrelevant.
The amendments comprise significant
changes in the party governance.
They take cognizance of the
complications and problems that
contributed to SODELPAs general
election loss last year.

They strengthen the position of president
in a clearly re-defined role as the overall
chief of the party.
The parliamentary leaders role would
also be re-defined to ensure there is
no clash between the two roles. The
change would require more consultation
between the two.

Professor Ankim Veera Swamy Awarded

From a humble beginnings in Labasa,
former Fiji National University alumnus,
Professor Ankim Veera Swamy, 86, rose
to be one of Fijis top academic scholars.
He was among award recipients at the

night at the Grand Pacific Hotel in Suva.
I thank FNU for recognising and
appreciating my work through this

My contribution to the nation doesnt
end here and as a scholar I am going
to keep contributing to the Fijis

It was a great privilege to have been
part of upgrading the academic system
in our nation and upgrading it to another
level and I hope my contribution will
help in nation- building, Professor
Swamy said.
He was the first local director of Derrick
Technical Institute which later became
the Fiji Institute of Technology and has
now been absorbed into the FNU.
After completing his early years of
school at Labasa he moved to Viti Levu
with the aim of furthering his education
and finding employment.

MP Sims Labels Annie Award As Fraud
By Asuad Ali
NDP MPJinny Sims has distanced herself

from the awards claim controversy
swirling around Radio Fiji Mirchi host
Annie Ji Singh.
Sims said on Monday that she is
flabbergasted by the false claim that
Annie received the award of ambassador
from the Governments of Canada and
Fiji during Fijian Prime Minister Voreqe
Bainimaramas farewell party in Surrey
last month.
I want to make it very clear that I have
not given out any award to Annie or
made any appointments during Fijian
prime ministers farewell party in
Surrey, Jinny Sims said.
I did not give any award and I want to
make that known. The claims are bogus
and unacceptable and undermined good
work done by politicians.
Sims said she was asked to be at the
farewell party on the behest of Faiyaz
Khan, the host and the CEO of the
Mortgage Alliance AAA Canadian
604.909.4088
Lending and had no part with the award

which has culminated attention.
I was told by Annie to join Sue Hemmell
(MLA for Surrey-Green Timbers) on the
stage as the Fijian PM would make some
special award presentation, she said.
I thought for a second that it was nice of
the PM to acknowledge his very people
while in Canada. It didnt cross my mind
that the award had my name written all
over it that I was not even aware.
Sims said she feels bad about the whole
thing adding she was being used.
It was complete disrespect to the PM,
the host, the guests and the dignitaries.
She said as the official opposition to the
Government of Canada, she is not in a
position to either make any appointments
or hand out awards other than certificates
of appreciations.
We give out certificate of appreciation.
A certificate of appreciation is given
to someone who has done extensive
work for an organization. We recognize
people who make the difference in the
community but We have never given out
a plaque award.
Sims says its completely absurd for
Annie to forge an award with her name
to gain notoriety.
It is disappointing and I share the anger
of a lot of locals who have approached me
about this. It shouldnt have happened.

Woman Who Burned Boy's Mouth With

Hot Poker Loses Name Suppression
A woman originally from Fiji who

hit two boys with household items,
including burning one of their mouths
with a hot spoon and poker, has lost her
name suppression.
Shahidan Nisha, 60, appeared in the
Christchurch District Court. Her
scheduled sentencing was put off to a
later date, but her name suppression
ended.
Nisha has been in custody since a jury
convicted her on 27 charges in May. The
charges involved assaults on the two
boys over a long period, and a man aged
in his 80s.
The Crown said the boys were slapped,
kicked, punched, and hit with sticks or
household items.
One boy gave evidence of a heated
spoon and poker being used to burn his
604.510.4088
mouth, and being forced to chew hot

chilli peppers.
The boy told the court of not being
able to eat or drink for days after these
punishments.
The elderly man did not give evidence at
the trial because he had been diagnosed
with Alzheimers disease. A recorded
interview with him was played to the
jury.
The assaults took place in Christchurch.
The jury rejected the defence claim at
trial that Nisha had been stitched-up
by a web of lies being told by people
she was trying to help. She admitted
slapping one boy for discipline, for good
reason, but denied the other assaults took
place.
The jury convicted Nisha on 27 out of 29
charges in the indictment.

Education Ministry Receives Printing

Machines From Australia
The Fijian Government will make

every possible effort to ensure that all
children get access to quality education
irrespective of where they come from.
The Hon. Minister for Education,
Heritage and Arts, Dr Mahendra Reddy
stressed this in Suva while officially
receiving three industrial printing
machines from the Australian Minister
for Education and Training, Hon.
Christopher Pyne.
The three Education Resource Centre
printing machines worth $848,500 were
donated by the Australian Government
through the Access to Quality Education
Programme (AQEP).
Dr Reddy said the assistance was
invaluable for the Ministry of Education
because it would help achieve the Fijian
Governments vision of building a
knowledge-based society.
It will help in developing a Fiji based on
logic and reasoning and have a scientific
basis to it. The reforms being undertaken
in the Education Ministry is to lift the
benchmark in respect to the quality of
product that we get out of our primary
and secondary schools and universities
as well, Dr Reddy said.
The Ministry of Education has printed
close to 500,000 textbooks through the
use of the three printing machines in the
past few months.
Dr Reddy highlighted that Fijis education
system faced various challenges which
needed home grown solutions.
We face various challenges in terms of
the distribution of services, electricity,
internet, adequate or good infrastructure
in rural areas, sending teachers to serve

in remote areas and cost of sending
infrastructure materials to rural and outer
island schools.
We are now focused on review our content
and curriculum, ensuring quality of staff
and equipping them with right skills and
materials so they are able to deliver. At the
same time, ensuring that we have quality
infrastructure in rural schools so the
quality of education is not compromised
when parents send their children to schools
in remote areas, Dr Reddy said.
Mr Pyne said the Australian Government
was committed to having a consistent
approach to education support in Fiji
so that people here could improve their
skills, education, qualifications, the
standard of living and quality of life.

One of the features of Fijian education
is free education, free transport and
free textbooks. The Fijian Government
recognises the importance of getting the
Fijian population educated, providing
them skills to grow their economy to
make the country more productive, Mr
Pyne said.
Australia is very pleased to play its part
through AQEP in supporting the Fijian
education system. These textbooks
have already meant that the turnaround
for providing these resources to Fijian
students has gone from 30 days to six
days so it is allowing the Fijian Education
Ministry to respond quickly to needs in
schools right across Fiji.

Seasonal Workers Applauded By

Australian Employer For Outstanding
Performance
The first employer to recruit Fijians

under the Australian Seasonal Worker
Program applauded the pilot group of
four workers for demonstrating excellent
performance since they started three
months ago.
The employer, PlantGrowPick Pty Ltd
has proclaimed the group as the best
among all workers engaged by the
company.
PlantGrowPick director Mr Walter
Fangatua, who is currently in the country
to enlist more workers, said the groups
outstanding performance has opened
doors for Australian Approved Employers
to recruit seasonal workers from Fiji.
We want everyone in Fiji to recognise
these four boys as they have opened the
doors for more Fijians to work in my
company. I have given them my trust and
assurance that the door for Fiji is open

because of their commitment, hard work
and consistency, Mr Fangatua said.
While congratulating the Fijian
Government and the Ministry of
Employment, Mr Fangatua affirmed that
the relationship developed by the pilot
group will get better and stronger in the
future.
My company has been blessed to
have these four young men. You chose
them; they came; they accomplished
the mission you set for them. They have
done everything right that all seasonal
workers should do, Fangatua added.
The
Minister
for
Employment,
Productivity & Industrial Relations,
Hon Jioji Konrote said the Ministry is
pleased with the excellent feedback; and
is preparing Fijians registered with the
Foreign Employment Service (FORES)

for selection by other employers.
Hon Konrote confirms the Ministry has
developed a robust Work Ready Pool for
seasonal work offered by both Australia
and New Zealand. Furthermore, stringent
procedures are maintained to select
people who are medically fit, of good
character and have the right attitude
towards work.
To ensure Fiji retains the competitive
edge in this market, our selection
standards will not be lowered, Konrote
firmly reiterates.
The
Ministry
of
Employment,
Productivity & Industrial Relations
signed a Memorandum of Understanding
with the Australian Government for Fijis
participation in the Seasonal Worker
Program in April this year.
Minister Defends Education System

The Education Ministry has defended the
school, teachers as well as the education
system in the wake of the suicide case
involving a primary school student.
Education Minister Dr Mahendra Reddy
says schools and the education system
are not to be blamed for this unfortunate
incident.
The Education Ministry during its own
investigation has been able to speak to
one of the students who allegedly tried
to commit suicide with two of his other
friends.
The incident resulted in the death of a
14-year-old Ayush Kumar.
Dr Reddy says the matter will be further
investigated.
We have given that recording to the
police. The Head Teacher has given it
to the police. But what all we are saying
is that the causal factor is not the school
but something else. I am urging all
stakeholders to ensure that children are
not affected adversely, Dr Reddy said.
The Ministry is also concerned on how
the students got their hands on the
hazardous substance.
Dr. Reddy says police is investigating on
this as well.
So we are saying that if those chemicals
are not needed, dont keep it at home,
and if for some reason it is required to
be kept at home, then it is to be kept out
604.510.4088
of reach of the children. The possibility

is there but we havent investigated that.
Police is undertaking that investigation.
Dr. Reddy says all measures and
strategies are put in place from the
ministrys side to ensure such incidents
are not repeated.
We want to learn from this case, and
unfortunately the tragic incident has
taken place and once child has lost his
life, We have asked the head teacher to
undertake a detailed investigation so that
we see how we can improve and such
cases are never repeated.
However, the lesson might have come a
little late for the 14-year-old Ayush and
his family.
Dad recalls trying to save son
The distraught father of a boy who
committed suicide by drinking paraquat
is calling on authorities to strongly
monitor the sales of such weedicide to
under-age children.
Three students drank paraquat one died
while another two remain in hospital.
The father Rakesh Kumar spoke about the
last hours he spent with his youngest son.
Kumar recalled how he tried to save his
youngest son Aiyush.

The class 8 student of MGM Primary
School died after drinking a paraquat.
Rakesh says they started calling his sons
mobile phone after 6pm on Monday after
the child failed to return home.
Aiyush answered and said; Papa I have
drank paraquat with my friends I am at
Vatuwaqa and we all rushed and found
them in a very serious condition.
The dad admits his son was a slow
learner but says as parents they never
ever pressured Aiyush when it came to
studies.
According to my son before his death
he explained when I asked please tell
me what is the reason, according to him
there wasnt anything, it was all that they
wanted to have fun and the exam was
also coming. I know my son is a slow
learner, I never pressed my son.
Rakesh and his family are now preparing
for Aiyushs funeral his two other
friends remain in hospital.
The sad part is that what went in my
sons mind maybe because of peer
pressure because there is more than one
student involved.

Wrestling Legend Jimmy 'Superfly' Snuka

Charged In Girlfriend's 1983 Death
Wrestling legend Jimmy "Superfly"

Snuka is being charged with third-degree
murder and involuntary manslaughter
for the death of his girlfriend more
than 32 years ago in an assault at an
Allentown area motel, Lehigh County
authorities said.
The charges were announced at a news
conference Tuesday afternoon.
Snuka, 72, was arrested Tuesday
morning after he surrendered to a Lehigh
County detective and arraigned at 1:50
p.m. from the Lehigh County Central
Booking Center. He was sent to county
jail, but later posted $100,000 bail.
Lehigh County District Attorney Jim
Martin re-opened the case last year,
prompted in part by a Morning Call
investigation that raised questions
about the death of Snuka's 23-year-old
girlfriend, Nancy Argentino, in May
1983. The Call story revealed a neverbefore-seen autopsy report that labeled
the case a homicide.
The grand jury's term ended at the end
of July.
At the time of Argentino's death,
Snuka was one of the World Wrestling
Federation's biggest names, known for
his high-flying finishing moves.
Reached Tuesday by phone, Argentino's
sister Louise Argentino-Upham said
it's a relief, especially since her mother
turns 90 this year and may be able to see
justice served.
"I think that it's been a long road,"
Argentino-Upham said. "They did the
right thing in face of all the evidence."
Snuka had been at a WWF taping at
the Allentown Fairgrounds on May 10,
1983, and returned to his Whitehall
Township motel room to find Argentino,
of Brooklyn, gasping for air and oozing
yellow fluid from her mouth and nose,
records show.
Argentino was pronounced dead at
Lehigh Valley Hospital the next day. An
autopsy determined she died of traumatic
brain injuries and she suffered more than
two dozen cuts and bruises a possible
sign of "mate abuse" on her head, ear,
chin, arms, hands, back, buttocks, legs
and feet.
The autopsy also determined her injuries
were consistent with being hit with a
stationary object. In an autopsy report,
forensic pathologist Isidore Mihalakis
wrote the case should be investigated as
a homicide until proven otherwise.
Snuka originally told at least five
604.510.4088
people, including the responding police

officer, he shoved Argentino earlier that
day, causing her to fall and hit her head,
according to police interviews obtained
by The Morning Call. He later told
police those five people misunderstood
him, and said Argentino slipped and hit
her head when they stopped along the
highway to urinate.
Snuka was the only person of interest in
the case but was never charged.
The
original
Whitehall
police
investigation went cold June 1, 1983,
after a follow-up interview with Snuka
that was ordered by Lehigh Valley
authorities and attended by WWF mogul
Vince McMahon.
In an unprecedented move, Martin
announced in January 2014 that a grand
jury would investigate Argentino's
mysterious death, acknowledging the
role of The Morning Call's story. He
said it was the oldest case he's ever sent
before the grand jury.
Snuka, who lives in Waterford Township,
N.J., was diagnosed with stomach

cancer, his wife announced earlier this
month.
In 1985, the Argentino family won a
$500,000 wrongful death case against
Snuka by default, but Snuka never paid
because he claimed he was broke and
couldn't afford a legal defense.
In his 2012 autobiography, Snuka
maintained his innocence and said
Argentino's death ruined his life.
"Many terrible things have been written
about me hurting Nancy and being
responsible for her death, but they are not

I never hit Nancy or threatened her."
However, less than four months before

Ministers Visit Brings Relief To Senior

Citizens
The Ministry of Women, Children and

Poverty Alleviation is urging families
to establish a strong family foundation,
through nurturing the values of respect
and care for senior citizens. This advice
comes from the Minister for Women,
Children and Poverty Alleviation, Hon
Rosy Akbar, in light of the recent reports
highlighted regarding the welfare of
senior citizens.
Aligned to the Ministrys caring
approach to senior citizens, Minister
Akbar visited the elderly couple in
Sabeto.
Mr Jai Prasad (68) and his wife Pushpa
Wati (67) have thanked Minister Akbar
for the visit and assistance provided to
them. Following an assessment carried
by the Ministry, the couple has been
approved to be assisted through the

Poverty Benefit Scheme.
The Ministry will continue to reach
out to senior citizens in such cases to
ensure that their welfare and wellbeing
is not compromised in any situation. We
have continued to reiterate on the need
for families address such issues through
care, understanding and communication
process. For the ministry, ensuring the
safety and wellbeing of the senior citizens
has always been of great importanceand we will go out of our way to assist
them in every way possible, Minister
Akbar said.
However, Minister Akbar has called
on stakeholders to practice more
responsibility when reporting such cases
through media. During the Ministers
visit and findings, it was revealed

that the couple was not abandoned by
their children and the story had been
exaggerated.
Upon the Ministrys assessment of this
case, it is found that the couple had left
because of a family dispute. They left by
choice and certainly not abandoned as
mentioned in some of the initial reports.
Its essential in such cases to ensure
sensible reporting through providing
thorough assessment of the cases before
drawing to any conclusion.
Upon our discussion with the family,
the sons have assured their support for
their parents. Any issues concerning
families are sensitive and if not handled
with care, it could further damage
relationships among families, Minister
Akbar said.
Meanwhile, Minister Akbar also visited
the 85 year old Sheema Chand Reddy,
a senior citizen who was allegedly
assaulted in Nadi last month.
Minister Akbar said the Ministry in
partnership with Non-Government
Organisations (NGOs) will take
appropriate measures to increase public
awareness on the issue.
The Ministry through National Council
for Older Persons (NCOP) is focused
on creating an inclusive, supportive, an
enabling environment for senior citizens.
Any matters concerning the welfare of
senior citizens, should be treated with
urgency and as such the Ministry will
continue to increase its reach out to
the ageing population. They should not
and will not be neglected and forgotten
for they have contributed towards the
development of our nation, Minister
Akbar said.
Education Minister Explains Changes To

Free Bus Fare Scheme
Education Minister Dr Mahendra Reddy

has cleared the air on the changes in the
free bus fare scheme for students.
The Ministry issued a memo outlining
changes to the scheme.
Dr. Reddy says government will pay the
fare for the nearest school only.
He adds any child is eligible for the
scheme as far as the combined parental
income is less than $16,500.
If they choose to go to another school
then they will have to pay for themselves.
604.510.4088
If there is a nearest school whether its

stage 1 or stage 2 we all fund it, said
Minister for Education, Dr Mahendra
Reddy.
Dr Reddy says changes have been
made to minimize the abuse of the bus
vouchers by the students, schools as well
as bus companies.
We have also come up with color coding
so that people dont keep their unused
tickets and use it or sell it to someone.
We are developing and fine tuning the
system continuously to fix the abuse that
has been happening.

Minister Faiyaz Koya Urges For

Continuity In MSG Trade Agreement
The Fijian Government has stressed once

the MSG Trade Agreement (MSGTA3)
is established, there would be a need
to continue revisiting and revising it
according to trends.
The Minister for Industry, Trade and
Tourism, Faiyaz Siddiq Koya, said they
would need to continuously revise and
expand the legal framework governing
trade.
This, he said so that we can remain
competitive on the world stage.
Mr Koya made these comments during
his welcome address at the Melanesian
Spearhead Group Trade Ministers
Meeting at Tanoa International Hotel in
Nadi.
He stressed to the MSG Trade Ministers
of the need to direct and guide officials
to maintain their commitment, to ensure
a long term sustainable future for the
MSG region.
We should also always be mindful of
the fact that we need to remain flexible
to shifts in the international landscape,
he said.
Its not just about manufacturing or
producing a single product, we have to
see the big picture and identify our role
in the global value-chain production
process.
Today, a product travels through
numerous countries throughout the
production process.
Becoming a link in this global valuechain is a competitive process, and we
need to encourage the creation of MSG
regional production value chains to
increase the regions efficiency.
Mr Koya said this is also beneficial

as it leads to regional exports to the
international market.
We all need to embrace this and be part
of the Global Value Chains to strengthen
our comparative advantage, he said.
How do we achieve this collectively
as MSG countries? By remaining
committed to increasing intra-MSG
regional trade.
This can only be achieved with the
political will necessary to implement
arrangements and commitments that
lead us to this goal.
The meeting
The meeting was to evaluate the
outcomes and recommendations of the
Trade and Economic Officials Meeting
held the past Friday.
The trade ministers will negotiate the
draft MSGTA3 legal text and, amongst
other things, discuss the Private Sector
Development Strategy.
The draft MSG Trade Agreement is
expected to be finalised at the next
meeting in New Caledonia in November.
Mr Koya stressed the strategies for the
development of the private sector should
not dwell on political environment of the
past.
But, he said it should rather build on the
successes of the present to give us an
even better future.
Therefore, a MSG regional strategy
should follow national policies in
relation to trade, investment and business
development, he said.
Our own Trade Policy Framework
provides an important guide as to what
the member states are trying to achieve.

The MSG Private Sector Development
Strategy will do well to take cue
from those frameworks, which have
undergone extensive consultations.
This strategy document needs to put
our best foot forward, especially to our
investors and development partners.
Mr Koya said they are moving fast
towards creating a new-age, modern
agreement in the form of the MSGTA3.
We must commit to working within the
legal boundaries of the Agreement, he
said.
We cannot agree to provisions of a
trade agreement and then back-track on
our commitments by making unilateral
decisions that do not fall into the agreed
terms.
Some MSG trade facts highlighted
by Minister For Industry, Trade And
Tourism, Faiyaz Siddiq Koya:
Trade between the MSG countries is
increasing each year at record levels.
Over a five-year period from 2010 to
2014, the total trade value between
the MSG countries grew from $79
million to $169 million representing
an increase of approximately 114
per cent.
Trade between Fiji and MSG
countries accounts for 24 per cent of
our total trade with Pacific Islands
Countries.
PNG has invested in the financial
and tourism sectors in Fiji, while Fiji
continues to invest in the retail and
manufacturing sectors in PNG and
other MSG countries.

for Youth and Sports, Poasa Ravea, gave
details during the 2016 National Budget
Consultation at the Labasa Civic Centre.
The consultation was headed by the
Attorney-General and Minister for
Finance, Aiyaz Sayed-Khaiyum.
Some people are doing marijuana
farming and I do not know who buys
it in Savusavu, Mr Ravea told the
consultation.
We need to do something to keep men
and women busy so that they do not get
604.510.4088

If possible Government can give some
grants so that youths can be busy with
development projects instead of planting
illicit drugs.
He called on Mr Sayed-Khaiyums
assistance in getting help from the Ministry
of Agriculture, Rural Development and
Natural Disaster Development.
Mr Ravea also urged Government
to encourage people to return to the
province, help their chiefs, and improve
infrastructure.
We need to recognise chiefs in various
districts on Cakaudrove so that they can
feel belonged and get motivation to work
for the betterment and improvement of
their villages.
The problems we are facing are
telecommunication and internet.
Concerns raised during the consultation
were noted by the Permanent Secretary
of Finance Filimone Waqabaca and

$14.5M Grant From Japan To Upgrade

Our Am Radio Frequency, Islands Reach
We are all set to modernise our radio

broadcasting capabilities and increase
access to information in even the
remotest islands of the country.
This is being done by upgrading the
existing medium wave AM infrastructure
and transmissions.
The project will basically provide
improved radio service to the people in
the remote maritime areas.
The project has been made possible by the
assistance of the Japanese Government
in the form of a $14.5 million grant.
The signing and exchange of notes ceremony
for the project for rehabilitation of the
medium wave radio transmission was held.
Prime Minister Voreqe Bainimarama and
the Japanese Ambassador to Fiji, Takuji
Hanatani, signed the documents.
Mr Bainimarama said we all know
the existing infrastructure was not a
commercially viable business.
But, he said it has much greater access
than our FM broadcasts and is the only

way in which they can provide our
remote communities with a signal strong
enough to carry radio programming.
Through this upgrade, the Fiji
Broadcasting Corporation will be able
to provide clearer and more dependable
programming to Fijians in maritime
areas and improve the overall quality of
radio coverage for all Fijians, he said.
Indeed, I am told that on a good day this
signal could be picked up even in New
Zealand.
Mr Bainimarama stressed Fiji was eager
to access the top-of-the-line equipment
and technology provided by the Japanese
Government.
Not only are we getting technology
capable of reaching the furthest reaches
of the country but it will provide the
entire nation with a reliable service for
many years to come, he said.
The project details
The Japanese ambassador confirmed the

project will be implemented under Japans
Grant Aid Scheme by Japan International
Cooperation Agency (JICA).
He said the project entails the
construction of a new transmission
antenna, transmission house, supply
of new two 558kHz and 990kHz
transmitters.
This will be accompanied with other
related maintenance equipment and tools.
Benefits
Mr Hanatani said Fiji and the Pacific
Island countries are always vulnerable to
unpredictable climatic changes.
This is where the reach of the AM
medium wave radio frequency becomes
indispensible, he said.
Having countrywide coverage far greater
than FM frequency, especially to remote
maritime area, AM medium wave radio
can save countless number of Fijian lives in
times of emergencies and natural disasters.
Cooking Accident
A family of Solovi in Nadi is mourning

the loss of their mother who died
after sustaining burns in a cooking
accident.
The late Hem Lata, 57, passed away at
the burns unit at the Lautoka Hospital
last Saturday. A post-mortem determined
she suffered from 85 per cent burns.
A family member said, We are mourning
at the moment, what has happened, we
cannot reverse time.

It is alleged that the late Mrs Lata was
cooking dhal inside her kitchen with
the use of firewood when the accident
happened.
Her 60-year old husband and 35-year old
son sustained burns while trying to rescue
her. In the process, both suffered 20 per
cent burns each. They are recovering at
the hospital.
Police spokesman inspector Atunaisa

Sokomuri said the three were rushed to
Nadi hospital before being transferred to
the burns unit in Lautoka Hospital.
He said the incident took place last
Friday but the matter was reported to
Police on Monday.
Inspector Sokomuri said investigations
into the matter continue. He urged the
public to be vigilant while cooking.
Second Student Dies
Another student who inflicted harm on himself earlier this week died at the Colonial War Memorial Hospital.
Police spokesperson Atunaisa Sokomuri
confirmed the students death saying
other details are still to being gathered.
The primary school student was one of
three friends aged 13 and 14 who tried to
harm themselves at Vatuwaqa, Suva on
Monday night.
Initial reports said the students feared
failing their internal exams.
Authorities are investigating the
circumstances that led to the students
actions.
Another student, thirteen year old, Ayush
Kumar, who was with his two friends,
died of self-inflicted wounds at CWM
Hospital on Tuesday morning. A second
student has also died.
604.510.4088
A third student is admitted in hospital.

Police are trying to piece together the
tragedy that claimed the life of two
teenagers. Both the teenagers died at
the Colonial War Memorial Hospital
(CWM) from internal injuries, after
allegedly drinking paraquat.
One teenager, spoke from his hospital
bed, blamed family problems for his
condition.
One of my friends who had bought the
paraquat, had some family problems.
He was beaten up by his brother and
mother all the time and tried to attempt
suicide rather than been beaten.
Another friend had relationship
problems and attempted suicide, he
said.
It has been established that the three
were not related but close friends.
Police released a statement blaming
psychological pressure.
The Fiji Police Force is seriously
concerned with a report whereby three
students are alleged to have attempted to
take their own lives for fear after they
had failed an exam.
However, the victims families say
they did not know the reason for their
childrens behaviour.
Police have advised parents to develop
relationships with their children to
solve problems that could easily be
dealt with.

It's Official: Canada Fell Into Recession In

The First Half Of The Year.
Statistics Canada reported Tuesday that

Canadian GDP fell 0.5 per cent at an
annualized rate in the second quarter of
the year, following a 0.8 per cent decline
in the first quarter. Two consecutive
quarters of contraction are generally seen
as the technical definition of a recession.
But StatsCan's numbers also showed a
surprisingly large bounce-back in GDP in
June, up 0.5 per cent on the month, suggesting
the country entered the third quarter of 2015
on a stronger economic footing.
There was no sign of a bounce-back in the
oil industry. The oil, gas and mining sector
saw output fall a significant 4.9 per cent in
June compared to the same month a year
earlier. Industries supporting oil extraction
saw output collapse by 18 per cent.
But the recession was felt outside the
oil industry as well, with construction
dropping by 3.1 per cent in June from a
year earlier, and manufacturing output
dropping 1.7 per cent.
Bright spots included finance and
insurance (up 6.5 per cent), real estate (up
3.2 per cent) and retail (up 1.4 per cent).
Exports were a bright spot in the second
quarter, adding to growth after being a
drag on it in the previous two quarters.
A considerable amount of growth in
the quarter was found in household
consumption at a time when interest
rates remained low.
Statistics Canada found that household
consumption rose by 0.6 per cent in the

second quarter, which followed a 0.1-percent gain in the first three months of the
year. The second-quarter increase was led
by 1.5-per-cent growth in transport prices.
StatsCan also revised downwards
Canada's performance in the first quarter
of 2015. It now says GDP shrank at a
0.8 per cent annual pace. It had earlier
reported the economy shrank at a 0.6 per
cent pace that quarter.
But many economists argue Canada is in
a "technical recession" the economy
meets the definition of a recession, but
is missing some of the hallmarks of an
actual recession. For instance, overall
employment levels have been growing
in Canada, despite job losses in western
provinces.
That led CIBC economist Avery
Shenfeld to conclude that Canada is "not
yet [in] a recession."
In a client note Tuesday, Shenfeld said
the first half of the year was "as weak as
advertised" but the strong performance
in June suggests that the third quarter of
the year "will provide a breather as the
economy, at least for a quarter, returns
to growth."
The new batch of data is likely to add fuel
to the heated, ongoing political debate
over how best to respond to the weakened
economy as parties battle for support
ahead of the Oct. 19 federal election.
It is also expected to intensify the

economic argument over the severity of
the technical recession. Prime Minister
Stephen Harper has side-stepped
campaign-trail questions about whether
Canada was in recession this year. On
Monday, he also declined to define a
recession when asked about it.
"I think it's more important to describe
the reality of the situation rather than
to have labels,'' said Harper, whose
Conservative party has pinned its reelection hopes on its economic record.
The hobbled economy has so far
shaped up to be the primary issue of the
campaign and Harper's opponents
have used his record as a bull's-eye for
their attacks.
Harper has reiterated a stay-the-course
mantra, insisting the country must ride
out external economic and market
turbulence whipped up in places like
China. He has argued the only domestic
weakness has been in the energy sector,
which has suffered from the steep slide
in global oil prices.
The Tory leader has frequently cited
forecasts that predict the economy will
rebound in the second half of the year,
including a projection by the Bank of
Canada. The central bank, however, has
downgraded its projections for 2015 and cut
its trendsetting interest rate twice this year
to cushion the blow of low crude prices.
A Bay Area man who found a $20

bill on a street outside San Francisco
International Airport used it to play
the California lottery and won $1
million, a lottery spokesman said on
Monday.
Hubert Tang used the lucky bill to buy
two scratcher tickets at a store near
the airport on Wednesday and won
the top prize with one of them, lottery
spokesman Greg Parashak said.
"I scratched the ticket outside of the
store. I told my friend who I was with
that I didn't know if it was real but, 'I
think I just won a million dollars,'" Tang
said, according to Parashak.
Tang, a bartender at the airport, had
not played the lottery in about a decade
before using the found money to buy two
tickets, Parashak said.
Tang said he did not yet have plans for the

money, but joked that he might use it to place
$20 bills in random places for other lucky

players to find, according to the lottery.

Penn West Petroleum, Conocophillips

Canada Slash Hundreds Of Jobs
Most of the 900 job losses between the 2 companies will be from Calgary offices
Almost 1,000 energy-sectors jobs are

disappearing, mostly in Calgary, as two
major oil and gas players announced
plans to scale back operations because
of the low price of crude.
ConocoPhillips Canada confirmed to the
media that it will reduce its workforce by
about 15 per cent 400 employees and
100 contractors.
"We informed people on Monday, but
the vast majority of the actual reductions
will occur by mid October. The majority
of the reductions in Canada will be in our
Calgary office," said its communications
director, Rob Evans.
Penn West Petroleum Ltd. also announced
a major reduction in its workforce. About
400 full-time employees and contractors
most of them working at company
headquarters in Calgary are being let go.
Most of the job cuts are effective
immediately and the rest will be complete
by the end of this year, the company said
Tuesday.
The jobs represent 35 per cent of the total
workforce at Penn West, a prominent
mid-sized oil and gas producer.
Chris Dumanowski, 48, laid off from his
position as a field operations manager,
found some comfort in the news: He'll have
more time for home-improvement projects.
"It's a little bit depressing for sure," he
said. "It's a pretty tough market in the oil
and gas industry right now. It'll definitely
be a tough go."
The workforce reduction is part of Penn
West's response to a recent decline in
oil prices. It's also suspending dividend
payments to its shareholders after its
next payment in October and reducing
compensation for its board of directors.
It has also identified a further $75 million
of capital spending that will be put off,
reducing this year's capital budget to
$500 million a 40 per cent reduction
from its original plan to spend $840
million in 2015.
There have been significant job losses
in the last two years at Penn West,
with the workforce dropping from
2,350 employees in June 2013 to fewer
than 1,000. The company has also
faced legal challenges from investors
after accounting irregularities were
discovered last year.
In March ConocoPhillips announced
it was cutting seven per cent of its
Canadian staff about 200 jobs.
604.510.4088
University of Calgary energy economist

Michal Moore says he expects there will
be more oil patch layoffs this fall.
"The long term picture is at least over
the next 18 months or so is pretty
bleak. And the companies are hunkering
down trying to make sure they can
survive that period," he said.
New focus for Penn West
For next year, Penn West will aim to
keep its capital spending within cash
flow generated from operations, with
a focus on its light oil properties in the
Viking and Cardium shale formations in
Western Canada.
"We have made a number of exceptionally
difficult decisions in order to remain
competitive in the current commodity
price environment," Penn West chief
executive and president Dave Roberts

said in a statement,
"We view the cost reductions as
sustainable and we will remain well
positioned for the potential expansion
of development activities and capital
programs in the future."
Penn West estimates that the workforce
reduction will reduce spending about
$45 million a year. The suspension of its
dividend after the previously announced
payment of one cent per share on Oct. 15
will reduce annual cash outlays by $20
million.
Payments to non-management directors
on Penn West's board will be cut 40
per cent and the payment to Penn West
chairman Rick George will be cut by 50
per cent.
Indian-Origin Girl Wins Miss Teen

"She plays basketball, soccer, and field
hockey and is working as a freelance
model. Her hobbies include reading,

Migrant Found Crammed Behind Car

Engine In Attempt To Enter EU
An African migrant has been caught

trying to smuggle himself into Spain
while crammed into a tiny space behind
a car's engine, in the latest desperate
ploy to enter the EU.
The asylum seeker, reportedly from the
West African nation of Guinea, was found
hidden beneath the bonnet of the car as it
crossed from Morocco into the Spanish
enclave of Ceuta - one of two North
African territories owned by Madrid.
He was discovered by Guardia Civil
border police, squeezed behind the
engine block and radiator, lying in a
foetal position.
He was reportedly in a bad state of health
as a result of the baking temperatures
and petrol fumes.
A second migrant, also from Guinea,
was found hidden inside a tiny space
behind one of the seats inside the car.
They were identified only by their
initials, T.D and A.B.
Spanish police became suspicious after
noticing that the driver of the car, who
was not identified, appeared nervous.
The driver was arrested. The two
migrants were taken to a local hospital
suffering from cramp and dehydration.
Doctors said they could have died had
they been inside the confined spaces
Agents of Spain's Guardia Civil found a man in the fetal position crammed into
a specially designed compartment next to the engine of a car
much longer.
The case recalled that of a young boy
who in May was found hidden inside
a suitcase in an attempt to enter Ceuta
from Morocco.
The eight-year-old boy from Ivory
Coast, named Abou, was discovered
after the suitcase he was squeezed into
was put through an X-ray scanner.
The suitcase was wheeled through
the Tarajal pedestrian crossing on the
frontier by a 19-year-old woman.

When police opened up the case, the boy
peered up at them and said, in French:
"My name is Abou."
Police said the smuggling attempt was
highly dangerous and that it "could have
ended in tragedy."
Spain's border police caught more than
12,500 immigrants last year, most of
them in Ceuta and Spain's other North
African enclave, Melilla.
US Cop Put On Trial For Slamming Down

Indian Grandfather
The trial of a former Alabama police
officer who slammed down an Indian
grandfather walking in his son's
neighbourhood in February has begun
with the first day spent in selection of
the jury.
Eric Parker, 26, is accused of using
excessive force against an unarmed
Sureshbhai Patel and charged with
violating his civil rights.
Patel, 57, arrived for court early,
steadying himself on a walker as he
slowly moved down the sidewalk outside
the federal courthouse in Huntsville
before the trial began Tuesday.
"He's reached the max, in my opinion,"
said Chirag Patel of his father's recovery.
He said his father has regained some
independence. "He is able to get around
and take care of himself."
But Chirag Patel, an engineer in
604.510.4088
Madison, said his father has lost the

ability to grip with his left hand and has
learned to move around by dragging his
left leg.
On Feb 6, on a cold Friday morning
in a quiet suburban lane in Madison,
Parker and a trainee responded to a
non-emergency call about a "skinny
black guy" walking around near the
homes.
Parker and the trainee stopped and
detained Patel, who was taking a
morning walk in front of his son's
home.
Patel spoke no English and had arrived
days earlier from India to help care for
his new grandson.
Dash cam footage shows Parker and
another policeman approach Patel.
Parker, while holding the older man's
arms behind his back, is seen slamming
Patel face-first into the ground and

falling on top of him.
He required emergency surgery to repair
damage to his spine and remains partially
paralysed.
Parker, who was subsequently fired by
the Madison Police Department, faces
up to 10 years in prison on the federal
charge if convicted.
He also faces a misdemeanour assault
charge in Limestone County, but that
case has been put on hold pending the
outcome of the federal trial.
Prosecutors for the federal government
and the defence attorney for police
officer Eric Parker spent all of Tuesday
instructing, organising and questioning
55 potential jurors.
In the end, only four were dismissed,
including one man who had difficulty
hearing.

Former Nhl Player Admits To Setting Fire

In Fathers Langley Home
A former National Hockey League

player has admitted to causing a fire at
his father's Langley home earlier this
year.
Stephen Boyd Peat, 35, made a brief
appearance in provincial court in Surrey
on Wednesday morning, where he
pleaded guilty to a charge of arson by
negligence. Peat was initially charged
with arson in relation to an inhabited
property, to which he pleaded not guilty,
and arson damaging property.
Shortly after 10:30 p.m. on March 17,
firefighters were called to a fire at a
home in the 4400-block 208A Street.
The homeowner, Walter Peat, was in
bed when the fire started but managed to
escape. A basement suite tenant was not
home at the time.
Firefighters extinguished the blaze, but
the house and vehicles in the driveway
were severely damaged.
Police were called to investigate the fire
because a passerby saw a man lighting the
fire and tried unsuccessfully to stop him.
Investigators learned that there was
a "domestic dispute" between Walter
and Stephen Peat which began that the

afternoon and was renewed later in the
evening.
Stephen Peat turned himself in to police
on March 19. He was granted bail on
March 23 and is not currently in custody.
A pre-sentence report was ordered for
Peat and sentencing is scheduled for Nov.

An average fleece that has not been shorn
for 12 months weighs about 5 kilograms
and takes three minutes to shear.
Mr Elkins said it was a difficult job.
"It was a challenge but the sheep was
calm and the vets gave it a mild sedation
before we started the shear," he said.
"We started on the belly, just laid it on its
back, kept it comfortable.

"There were parts of the sheep where we
had to cut it in different layers because
the problem for me shearing it was the
weight of the fleece was pulling on the
skin and we wanted to keep the skin cuts
to a minimum."
After shearing, the sheep weighed in at

Wool World Record: 40Kg Fleece Shorn Off

Overgrown Sheep In Canberra, RSPCA Says
Wool shorn off an overgrown sheep found
near Canberra has set an "unofficial" world
record for the heaviest fleece removed in
one shearing, the RSPCA says.
The sheep, dubbed Chris, was found and
underwent a risky shearing operation to
remove 40.45 kilograms of wool.
It smashed the previous world record held
by a sheep in New Zealand called Shrek,
whose fleece weighed 27 kilograms.
The national shearing champion took on
the challenge to clip the sheep, which
was rescued by RSPCA staff after being
reported by a member of the public.
It was so woolly its life was at risk,
as sheep can develop serious medical
conditions if they are not regularly shorn.
Vets were worried the animal could die
from shock during the shearing, so it was
sedated during the process.
The RSPCA estimates the sheep, which
could barely walk due to the mass of
wool, had not been shorn in more than
five years.
It took four-time Australian Shearing
Championship winner Ian Elkins and
four helpers 42 minutes to shear the

Lower Blood Pressure By Eating Less Salt

One of the quickest ways to lower your
blood pressure (especially if you have
high blood pressure) is to eat less salt.
Salt raises your blood pressure. The
more salt you eat, the higher your blood
pressure will be.
Salt makes your body retain water. If
you eat too much, the extra water stored
in your body raises your blood pressure.
This can be a particular problem if you
have high blood pressure. Also, eating
too much salt may mean that blood
pressure medicines, such as diuretics,
don't work as well.
How much salt is too much?
An adult should eat no more than 6g of
salt a day, but most of us eat much more
than this.
Most of the salt we eat every day is
"hidden". Roughly 80% of the salt we
eat is hiding in processed foods like
bread, biscuits and breakfast cereals,
and prepared ready meals or takeaways.
Only 20% comes from the salt we add
while cooking or at the table.
What salt levels mean
To avoid the hidden salt and cut down
your salt intake, it is best to eat foods
that are low in salt and stop using salt
when cooking or at the table.
By reading the food label, you can see if
a food is low, medium or high in salt (do
not confuse with sodium, see below):

Low - 0.3g salt or less per 100g of
food - Eat plenty of these
Medium - 0.3-1.5g salt per 100g
of food - Eat small amounts
occasionally
High - 1.5g salt or more per 100g of
food - Avoid these completely
What sodium levels mean
Some labels may not say how much
salt the food contains, but may say how
much sodium it contains. Sodium is one
of the chemicals in salt. 1g of sodium is
the same as 2.5g of salt
Low - 0.1g sodium or less per 100g
of food - Eat plenty of these
Medium - 0.1-0.6g sodium per
100g of food - Eat small amounts
occasionally
High - 0.6 sodium or more per 100g
of food - Avoid if possible
If the label does not say how much salt
or sodium the food contains, look at the
ingredients list. The closer to the top of
the list salt appears, the more salt it is
likely to contain.
8 ways to eat less salt and help your
blood pressure
Dont add salt when cooking. This
includes things like soy sauce, curry
powders and stock cubes.
Get extra flavour with herbs and
spices, and from seasonings like

chilli, ginger, lemon or lime juice.
If you really can't do without a
salty favour, you could try using
a small amount of low-sodium
salt substitute. If you have kidney
problems or diabetes, check with
your doctor or nurse first.
Table sauces like ketchup, mustard and
pickles can contain a lot of salt. Check
the label and choose low-salt options.
Bread and breakfast cereals can contain
a lot of salt. Check the labels to compare
brands. Smoked meats and fish contain
a lot of salt. Avoid these if you can. If
you are eating out, ask if your meal can
be made with less salt. This may not be
possible, but it is always worth asking.
Look out for low-salt recipes. There
are a number of low-salt cookbooks
available, or you can search on the
Internet
Dont be too concerned about the exact
amount of salt you eat, instead try to
always eat foods with the lowest salt
level. 6g of salt a day is the maximum
you should eat, and the less you eat the
better.
At first, food without salt can taste bland,
but dont give up. After a few weeks
your taste buds will adjust and you will
start to enjoy food with less salt.
Why You Should Eat Garlic Empty

Stomach
There are differing opinions on the subject of eating garlic on an empty stomach. You may have heard people writing it off
as a grandmother's home recipe that has very little effect but there are many who swear by its benefits.
Garlic on empty stomach is very
effective for preventing and curing
different diseases.
Natural antibiotic
Studies have shown that garlic if eaten
on an empty stomach acts as a powerful
antibiotic. It is more effective when you
eat it before breakfast because bacteria
is exposed and cannot defend itself from
succumbing to its power.
Controlling hypertension
Many people who suffer from
hypertension have found that garlic
helps relieve some symptoms.
Good for the gut
It aids in proper functioning of the liver
and bladder and is effective for stomach
problems like diarrhea. It stimulates
604.510.4088
digestion and appetite. It also helps

control stress, which prevents stomach
acid that is usually produced when you
get nervous.
Detoxifies the body
Garlic is considered to be one of the most
powerful foods to help detoxify the body
in alternative medicine. Experts in this
branch of medicine insist that garlic is so
powerful that it can get rid of parasites
and worms, and prevent diseases like
typhus, diabetes, depression, and some
types of cancer.
Respiration
Garlic is believed to work wonders in
preventing and curing tuberculosis,
pneumonia, catarrhs, bronchitis, chronic
bronchial catarrhs, lung congestion,
asthma, and whooping cough.

Helpful in tuberculosis
Diagnosed with TB? Here's how you
should consume garlic. Eat an entire
bulb of garlic a day. Divide it in various
portions that can be consumed in any
way. It is better for garlic to be raw or
lightly browned in the oven.
Warning: People allergic to garlic should
take two very important things into
account: you shouldn't eat it raw, and
if you get an outbreak on your skin, an
increase in temperature, or a headache,
you should immediately stop consuming
it.
If the strong smell of garlic becomes
unbearable it is recommended that one
can consume it in the pill form.

Foods To Eat When You Have The Flu

Popsicles
An icy popsicle can soothe a sore, prickly,
swollen, or dry throat. It can also help
keep you hydrated, which is the key when
battling the flu. Getting enough fluids can
keep mucus thin and help lessen congestion.
Look for popsicles made from 100% fruit
juice to make sure you're getting vital
nutrients and not sugar water. Some flavors
to try: apple, grape, or strawberry.
Turkey Sandwich
Turkey is a good, lean protein, essential to
solid nutrition. And although you may not feel
like it, eating can help give your body energy
to fight illness. Try adding cranberry sauce for
a spike of flavor and comfort-food taste.
Vegetable Juice
Making and eating a salad is probably
one of the last things you'll feel up to
while recovering from the flu. Down
a glass of low-sodium vegetable juice
instead. You'll load up on immuneboosting antioxidants and keep yourself
hydrated. Craving a sweet taste? Go
with 100% fruit juice.
Chicken Soup
Nourishing and hydrating, there's also
some scientific evidence that chicken
604.510.4088
soup may help with healing and have

mild anti-inflammatory effects. Studies
have found that hot chicken soup can
improve the ability of cilia, the tiny hairlike parts of the nasal passages, to protect
the body from bacteria and viruses.
Garlic
If you feel up to it, garlic can be a good
choice to spice up foods like soup.
It appears to have antimicrobial and
immune-stimulating properties and may
give you slight relief from congestion.
Ginger
Stomach ache? Nausea? Ginger is a
home remedy often used to soothe these
symptoms. Some studies suggest it may
help fight inflammation. Try adding it
freshly grated or in powdered form to
other foods, or drinking flat ginger ale.
Hot Tea
Green, oolong, and black tea offer
disease-fighting
antioxidants. And
breathing in the steam can help relieve
congestion. Add a spoonful of honey and
a squeeze of lemon to help soothe a sore
throat. If caffeine bothers you, opt for
decaf or herbal versions.
Banana
Sliced, mashed, or whole, bananas are

easy on the stomach. They can be a goto food if you've been hit with symptoms
like nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea,
which often occur in kids with the flu.
Bananas, along with rice, applesauce, and
toast, make up the BRAT diet -- often the
first foods doctors encourage people to try
when theyre recovering from stomach
flu and ready for solid foods.
Toast
Although it brings up the rear of the BRAT
diet, toast is nothing to ignore. If you can
manage food, try toast or crackers. They
can be convenient foods when you're
fighting illness. Plus, they pair well with
chicken noodle soup and their satisfying
crunch can take the edge off hunger when
your stomach can't handle much.
Meal Replacement Drinks
If your appetite has returned, try one of
these to make sure you're getting proper
nutrients and calories. Look for lactosefree drinks with at least 6 grams of
protein and that are low in sugar. Flavors
like strawberry and chocolate may make
getting essential vitamins, nutrients, and
calories more attractive.

Get The Right Make-Up
Getting the make-up right is essential. At

the same time it is important to ensure
that you use the right products to avoid
any damage to your skin.
Make-up timeline
To ensure your eyes stay healthy and free
of infection when using make-up, heed the
following due-date rules. Throw out your
mascara after three months, powder eye
shadows every nine to 18 months, and cream
eye shadows every six to 12 months. Sharpen
your eyeliners often to keep them clean.
Mascara mistakes
To avoid mascara flake-off or smudging
on your face, apply a thin cost of mascara
to top lashes only. Then run an eyelash
brush through lashes to prevent clumpy
mascara build-up.
Get a rosy glow
Want your face to radiate a healthy glow?
Try using a gel blush or cream in a rosy
shade of pink to create a more natural
look. Gels or creams are more transparent
and blend smoothly. Rub it on the apples
of your cheek and blend up towards the
eye for a glowing complexion.
Minute manicure
Need a fast fix for unpolished nails? File
nails into a square shape, buff them to
create a bit of shine and apply a clear coat
of polish. Next rub in cuticle oil around
the edges of the nail and moisturise your

whole hand.
Brow etiquette
The trend in eyebrows for this season is
natural looking, not sparse and skinny.
Use a tinted brow definer or eye-shadow
to fill in scanty brows.
Fix tired feet
Pamper your tired feet with a luxurious
footbath. Fill a basin with warm water
and add a few drops of essential oils.
Next place marbles or small stones into
the basin. Run your toes and soles of
your feet over the marbles, and relax for
15 minutes.
Eye/lip pencil care
Before sharpening your eyeliner or lip
pencil, place them in the freezer for 10
minutes. They will harden slightly and
not break when sharpened.
Eyeliner hint
Women with deep-set eyes should use
liquid liner instead of regular pencil
eyeliner, to prevent smudging in the
crease of the lid.
Nail polish know-how
Is your nail polish from last season too
thick? Chances are the polish has begun
to thicken at the bottom of the bottle.
Add a bit of nail polish thinner to the
bottle to get the maximum use.
Foundation tester
When picking out a concealer or
foundation, always test the colour on the
inside of your wrist. The skin there is the
most unblemished and will give you a
good idea of how it will look on your face.
Extend your foundation
Want to extend the life of your foundation?
Mix a drop of it with moisturiser to create
a luminescent look for your skin.
Curl your lashes
Before curling your eyelashes, heat
the curler with a hair dryer for a few
seconds. The heat will lock in the curl on
your eyelashes.
Foundation secret
Apply foundation to your face after you
have done your eye make-up. This helps
you to fix any last minute smudging
from mascara or eyeliner under the eyes.
Lipstick trick
Love matte lipstick, but feel your dry lips
wreck the look? Apply a lip balm to lips
before starting your make-up routine. By
the time you have done your eyes and rest
of the face, your lips will be moisturised.
Manicure tip
If you have been sloppy applying nail
polish, simply soak nails (when dry) in
warm water for a few minutes and then rub
off extra nail polish gently with a finger.

What To Do When Kids Talk Back

Smart-alecky comments, sass, and
disrespectful gestures, such as eye rolls
and lip smacks, seem to be the norm when
children talk back to you nowadays. Try
these tips to nip your child's bold and
brash behavior in the bud.
Keep Your Composure
You don't have to put up with your child
talking back, but be careful about how you
react, because your response can either
improve or weaken your relationship with
your child. Be too lenient, and the cheekiness
could lead to more worrisome behavior. Be
too strict, and your child could feel that he
cant express himself, which will lead to
a communication shutdown. Your child is
probably feeling some intense emotions
already, so if you don't keep your reaction as
mild as possible, a nasty power struggle might
ensue. Yelling, making threats, or screaming
"How dare you? I'm your mother!" will only
escalate the situation. It's best to hold your
tongue, take some deep breaths, count to 10
(or 20), and ask yourself if what you're about
to say will help or hurt the situation. If you
still feel yourself losing control, or if your
child has already lost control, keep calm and
say that you will continue the conversation
later when both of you have cooled down.
Then walk away to another area of the house.
If the two of you are in public, don't engage
in a war or words. Instead, tell her that the
conversation is on pause until you get in the
car or make it home.
Determine the Root Cause
Back talk isn't always a true expression of
your child's feelings, and the reason might be
rooted in something unrelated to you. Maybe
your son is having problems with a friend
in school and taking it out on you because
he feels you're a safe target. Or perhaps he's
stressed about homework and screaming at

you to get out of his room. If this happens,
remain calm and collected, and ask questions
to get to the root of the problem. ("Did
something happen today at school?" or "Did
you say that because you need some time
alone?") Figuring out the reason behind
the snappy comeback can make it easier to
understand and resolve the issue.
Explain What's Acceptable
When your usually docile child says - Get
off my back! In response to a request, she
might be repeating something shes heard
and not realize she's being rude. "Children
sometimes hear their friends talking back,
and they want to be like them, so they
may imitate the language," says Hannah
Chow-Johnson, M.D., assistant professor
of pediatrics at Loyola University Chicago
Stritch School of Medicine. So be explicit
about what is and isn't okay. Tell her its fine
to say that she's angry or tired, for instance,
or that she doesn't feel like talking at the
moment. But name-calling, yelling, or
telling you to go away is unacceptable.
Carry Out Consequences
Once you discuss which behaviors and
phrases are inappropriate, let your child
know there will be consequences if he
crosses the line. Determine what these
consequences will be -- losing certain
privileges (video-game sessions, TV
time, etc.), getting additional chores,
or going to bed earlier - and let him
know ahead of time so he won't be
caught by surprise when he's punished.
Most important, follow through. Being
consistent and sticking to the rules is the
only way to show you mean business.
Model Your Expectations
It's very important that you model the
behavior you expect from your child.

Children learn by imitating what they see,
especially at home, says Gail Gross, Ph.D.,
Ed.D., a family psychologist in Houston. If
your 5-year-old overhears you using a snarky
tone when speaking to your spouse or your
mother-in-law, she will learn its okay to treat
others (including you) in a similar manner.
So make sure you speak and treat others
(family, friends, neighbors, and strangers)
respectfully, even when you think your kid
isn't around (little ears often hear everything).
In addition, examine your own interactions
with her. "If you see a pattern of back talk
developing with your child, sometimes the
best thing to do is grab your phone and
record audio," says Erik A. Fisher, Ph.D.,
a psychologist and the author of The Art of
Empowered Parenting: The Manual You
Wish Your Kids Came With. You don't
have to let your kid know -- simply glance
at the phone when your kid's talking back
and hit the record button. The recording
gives you a chance to listen to your child's
tone as well as your own. Many times
when parents listen, they realize that they
used the same sarcastic or disrespectful
tone as their child, which is how the child
learned it, says Dr. Fisher.
Praise Politeness
Pay extra attention when your child is
exhibiting positive behaviors instead of
negative ones. When your kid talks and
expresses herself in a respectful manner,
show your approval. Tell her, "I really like
the way you waited your turn to speak"
or "You did a really good job explaining
yourself without raising your voice." This
will make her feel good and help her realize
that Mom and Dad also notice good things.
The best part: She'll talk back less often
1) Say please and thank you when asking

and receiving things.
2) When others are talking, wait do not
interrupt. If you do need to interrupt, try
saying excuse me and then wait.
3) If you have something unpleasant
to say, be it about the meal or the way
someone looks in the line at the grocery,
keep your opinion to yourself.
4) Dont pick your nose in public
dont pick your brothers nose.
5) Use your words to build people up.
Do not tease or make fun of others.
6) Cover your mouth when you sneeze,
and if you are close to someone and feel
a sneeze coming on, turn away to avoid
sneezing on them.
7) If you have something on your mouth
or nose, use a napkin or tissue to remove
it not your clothes.
8) If someone is coming through the
door behind you, hold the door open for
them and then
9) Close the door behind you if you are
going outside, to the bathroom, getting in/
out of the car if you are able, and no one
is coming behind you close the door.
10) Knock on doors to someones private
space prior to entering. For example,
before entering a friends house, or a
siblings bedroom, if the door is closed
get permission before entering.
11) Pick up your toys when you are

finished playing with them especially
if you are playing at a friends house.
12) When someone is talking to you, put
down your distractions (toys, technology,
books, etc) and look them in the eyes
show them you are listening.
13) When you are inside, use an inside
voice. Try to match your volume to your
environment.
14) Keep your hands to yourself. Unless
someone gives you permission you
should not touch them or their things.
15) When eating, finish your mouthful before
talking. Do not reach over others at the table
and stay seating while others are eating.

Foods That Burn Belly Fat

The secret to lasting weight loss does
not come down to complicated caloriecounting and weight-loss gimmicks.
Instead, it's about working with your
body's natural hunger and sleep rhythms
to curb cravings, burn fat, and send your
energy levels soaring.
Research shows that our bodies' inner
eat-and-sleep clocks have been thrown
completely out of whack, thanks to cues
we send it all day with the wrong foods.
The result: You're caught in a "fat cycle":
a constant flow of hunger hormones that
makes your cravings almost irresistible.
But if you tune into your body's natural eat
and sleep schedules, you can actually
finallysay "goodbye" to your belly pooch.
Eat these foods to sleep better, lose more
weight, and melt your belly fat. Here's
how to get started!
Fish
When your diet is deficient in omega3sa very common nutrient in fish
your pineal glanda gland in your brain
that helps regulate your nervous system
is thrown off, leading to alterations
in the production of melatonin, your
sleep hormone. People with an omega-3
deficit don't sleep during their usual rest
periods, which can lead to things like

unhealthy late-night eating.
Fish is also rich in protein, which
previous research has shown can satiate
your appetite. You even burn more
calories digesting protein than you do
when you eat fats or carbs. Plus, eating
more omega-3s can boost heart health
and lower your risk of dementia.
Nuts
These legumes are a great source of
mood-boosting magnesium. And eating
more of it can help people who have
sleep troubles doze peacefully through
the night. One group of the 100 tossersand-turners over age 51 was given 320
milligrams of magnesium a day, while
the other group was given a placebo.
After seven weeks, those taking the
magnesium were sleeping better
which research shows can lead to less
overeating and weight gain. As a bonus,
the women had lower levels of dangerous
inflammation, a rogue reaction by the
immune system that is implicated in
heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and
Alzheimers disease.
Milk
It turns out that milk may really do a
body good when it comes to belly fat. A

2010 study found that among a group of
more than 100 premenopausal women,
fat was significantly reduced in those
who consumed the most calcium-rich
foods. In fact, for every 100 milligrams
of calcium they consumed per day (that's
half cup of soft-serve frozen yogurt),
they lost an inch of intra-abdominal
fatthe really bad stuff tucked in and
around your internal organs that has been
linked to higher rates of heart disease
and cancer.
Calcium can also help you sleep if you
tend to be awakened by muscle soreness or
crampsthe mineral, along with calcium,
helps relax muscle nerves and fibers.
Cherries
Around bed time, munch on a few
cherries. These cherries are one of
a number of plant-based sources of
melatonin, the sleep hormone. While
there's no evidence that they'll help you
nod off, studies have found that foods
like these (such as bananas) can raise
melatonin levels in the body. Not only
does melatonin help you sleep, but it's
a powerful antioxidant, which can also
promote weight loss.

Aries
Issues related to personal life and

relationships are likely to be your focus
this week. Friends may miss you at places
where you tend to hang out and exchange
views. Life partner may also complain
about not spending quality time together.
This is because pressing matters related
to career are likely to keep you busy.
Unexpected expenses related to family
may force you to borrow money on
Wednesday and Thursday. You may have
to go on a short trip for official work.
Businessmen may need to work hard to
attract new customers. If you suffer from
irregular blood pressure, you need to be
extra careful this week. This becomes
necessary as Mars and Saturn are
expecting each other. Also be alert about
disorders of the digestive system. Love
birds who have not yet forged a proper
relationship, may feel like rethinking the
matter. Some serious misunderstanding
could sour the relationship.
Taurus
Managing money for unexpected

expenses is likely to keep you busy
initially this week. Monday blues are
likely to affect your focus. However,
from Wednesday, you are likely to come
out of depression and feel refreshed.
Your concentration and performance
will improve. Businessmen are likely to
focus on expanding customer base by
venturing into new territory. They are
likely to get favourable response and
have cause for cheer. In money matters,
you may remain hard pressed and not
be able to save. On the health front,
you may fall prey to adverse seasonal
ailments. Old health issues may crop up
again and need prompt attention. If the
problem becomes chronic, opt for some
alternative type of medication. Singles
looking for a companion to enjoy
romance are likely to be disappointed
with no positive response from the
special someone. This can be attributed
to Venus moving in retrograde mode
Gemini
Planetary alliances seem favourable to

make progress in your pursuit. If you
are a businessman, you will get good
support from your social circle. This
is likely to act as a morale booster for
you. In job, you may have to struggle
to consolidate your position. However,
with your boss being satisfied with
your performance, there is no cause for
worry. Earnings from investments made
earlier, are likely to be encouraging. You
604.510.4088
may be worried about progress of kids.

Life partner is likely to be co-operative
and responsive. Therefore, your marital
life will be pleasant and enjoyable.
However, for love birds, some kind of
misunderstanding is likely to sour your
relationship. This can be attributed to
the planet of love, Venus moving in
retrograde mode. Mars and Saturn aspect
each other's position. This may lead to
old health issues relapsing. Consult your
physician promptly. If you have blood
pressure disorders, be very careful.
Cancer
Lady Luck may not favour you. This

seems to be on account of the ruler of
the 9th House, Jupiter being combust.
You may need to work harder to achieve
desired results. The south node posited
in the 10th House is likely to add to
your difficulties. Businessmen and
professionals both are likely to be affected
by this. It may become difficult to fulfill
the demands of customers in time, which
may even lead to the termination of
contracts. For well-settled professionals,
things will be only slightly better.
Seasonal changes may adversely affect
your health. Remember that prevention
is better than cure, so take appropriate
measures. With Jupiter as a ruler of the
6th House related to ailments, old health
issues may also relapse. If you have been
suffering from arthritis or pain in joints,
attend to it immediately. Opting for
alternative medication is likely to help
your cause.
Leo
Finance and family related issues are

likely to be in focus this week. With two
major planets, Jupiter and Sun posited
in the 2nd House, expect more guests
at home. Entertaining them will entail
extra expenses. Besides, you also need
to increase your monthly provisions for
your family. Investments made earlier
are likely to fetch encouraging returns.
Happily, this will offset the increase
in expenses. In job, the influence of
Saturn over the 6th House related to
employment, means you may have
to work harder and for longer hours
to handle the heavy workload heaped
on you. This will call for a lot of selfdiscipline. Fresh graduates stand a good
chance to land a decent job. Retrograde
Venus, posited in Leo, does not seem to
favour romance, so if you are hunting
for that 'someone special', have patience.
Venus posited in Leo becomes less
expressive anyways. So bide your time
till Venus is more favourably posited.
Virgo
You will enjoy a good rapport with your

spouse. In routine day-to-day work,
though, you may face hurdles. At office,
you may need to work longer hours to
complete your work. However, you may
be dissatisfied with the present working
condition and environment at your
workplace in general, and may have a
strong urge for change. Friday-Saturday
seems a good time to start applying for
a new job. Businessmen may need to
bargain hard to clinch a big deal. Some
discontent in the family may give you
stress. Health will be fine. However,
remain watchful about adverse seasonal
effects. Those of you looking for romance
are likely to be disappointed due to a lack
of response from your beloved. If you
are in the initial stages of a relationship,
there are chances of a break-up due to
misunderstandings. Have patient and
give space to your loved one, do not be
too possessive.
Libra
This week professionals may be asked

to shoulder extra responsibility. Though
it will be challenging, this is likely to
prove stressful for you. You may face
hurdles in routine official activities.
Postponing things may not be possible,
and it will become increasingly difficult
for you to perform optimally. However,
your boss is likely to come to your
rescue, by helping you to complete your
tasks. Peers are likely to mind their own
business. If you take things positively,
you stand to learn a lot by taking on extra
responsibility. Tuesday and Wednesday
are not too good for businessmen. If
you are in the service industry, you will
have a tough time satisfying customers.
You may have to motivate your staff to
take better care of clients. Professionals
handling offshore projects may also
have a difficult time around Tuesday and
Wednesday. On the personal front, you
may not get along too well with your
spouse on these days.
Scorpio
The Moon is posited in the dual-natured,

watery Sign Pisces in the 5th House. The
Moon is influenced by fiery Mars, posited
in the 10th House and the wise Jupiter,
posited in the 11th House. Mars is likely
to make you feel agitated; while the
influence of Jupiter is likely to help you
stay cool. Jupiter will positively impact
children in studies. You may be prone
to adverse seasonal effects on Tuesday
604.909.4088
27
and Wednesday. Be alert and if you see

any symptoms of illness, promptly visit
your doctor. Better still, follow a healthy
lifestyle to prevent any illness. You may
get embroiled in arguments with your
spouse this week. Avoid altercations,
especially on Thursday and Friday. Do
not let emotions run high and maintain
your composure. Natives of your Sign
are by nature possessive and overtly
sensitive in intimate relationships. Here,
the judicious Jupiter will help you in
keeping circumstances in control. You
may then get busy with your professional
work.
Sagittarius
In the initial stages of the week you

are likely to be concerned about the
academic progress of your children.
Some health issue could be impeding
them from concentrating on studies,
so get them medically checked up and
treated promptly. Professionals are
likely to be stressed out due to the heavy
workload on Wednesday and Thursday.
Over the weekend, you are likely to enjoy
some quality time with your life partner.
Businessmen are likely to have a tough
time throughout the week. You may need
to do some hard bargaining, repeatedly,
to clinch a big deal. If you are dealing
with some offshore projects, there may
be some misunderstanding with the
client around Wednesday-Thursday. The
issue is likely to get resolved around
the weekend. You are likely to feel
comfortable with your position on the
financial front. Love birds who are not

yet in a committed relationship may feel
like reviewing the situation owing to
some serious differences.
Capricorn
This week certain domestic matters will

call for your urgent attention. However,
this may irritate you as you have to
attend to some pressing career matters
as well. One of the main things on your
agenda will be increasing savings and
investing them profitably. You may
feel hurt by the unbecoming conduct of
someone close to you on Wednesday or
Thursday. Professionals may experience
some constraints around the weekend
which may not allow you to perform
efficiently. In marital life, you may be
unhappy with a lack of co-operation
from your spouse. Health may cause
concern around the weekend, especially
the health of an elderly member of your
family, who may have to be hospitalised
for a couple of days. It may take some
time before he/she starts responding to
medication. You may incur some heavy
expenses on this account. Overall,
the week holds more negatives than
positives for you.
Aquarius
The fight between Mars posited in the

7th House and Saturn posited in the
10th House is likely to adversely affect
harmony in marital life. Some strong
differences over setting priorities in
Household matters are likely to emerge.
You and your partner may both become
adamant, and you may feel like breaking

off to gain peace of mind. You may have
a tough time in managing career-related
issues as well. You may not be able to
concentrate consistently on the task on
hand. Your overall efficiency is likely
to reduce. You need to stop reacting and
develop some patience. You may prefer to
fall back on your basic trait of becoming
detached. Take personal decisions very
judiciously after weighing all the pros
and cons. Conserve your energy, and
take out time for recreation with your
family. You need to plan a short vacation
with your near and dear ones over the
weekend.
Pisces
Pisceans are the most malleable of

the twelve signs. Ruled by Jupiter and
characterized by fishes, they possess a
gentle, patient nature, but one that is in
wants of molding. Pisces adapts to their
surroundings, good or bad. Pisces is
the sign of mysticism, mystery and the
spiritual unknown. Pisces live in two
worlds, the real world and the spiritual or
mystical world where they interpret what
they see into what they want. They trust
their gut feelings and if they do not, they
quickly learn to because they realize that
their hunches are usually correct. They
are suspicious by nature but loyal in love
and attracted to romantic side throughout
their life. They can be very lazy but only
in matters that they do not care about.
Pisceans should avoid their restlessness
to make life more meaningful.

Rani Mukerji To Be Mummy In January

Rani Mukerji, who is already booked on
family time, is pregnant and out of the
country with hubby, reports Mumbai
Mirror. Over the past few weeks, rumour
mills have been buzzing overtime with
the news that the stork has visited Rani,
who tied the knot with filmmaker Aditya
Chopra on April 21, 2014, in an extremely
private ceremony in Italy. Rani, who
has always been guarded about her
personal life, refused to comment on the
pregnancy. However, Mirror reports that
the actress is in her second trimester and
the baby is due in January.
Rani's sister-in-law, Jyoti Mukerji, a
popular TV actress, accidentally confirmed
the news saying, "Yes, Rani is pregnant." A
source close to the actress revealed that she
is presently travelling with Aditya and is
out of the country. The couple took off to
London at the end of July and Rani was
spotted by a fan at a spa getting a prenatal massage. "They returned to India last
week after travelling in the UK for over
a month but have taken off again, no one
knows where," added the source. Since,
UK seems to be a frequent getaway, will
the baby be born in the Queen's City? "No,
the delivery will take place in Mumbai,"
the source asserted.
Priyanka Chopra Is All Up In Arms For

Quantico
Yeah, that line was obviously not

mine, it was Priyanka Chopras. PC is
currently wrapping up shooting for ABC
show Quantico which airs worldwide on
September 27th.
Priyanka plays the role of Alex Parrish,
an FBI trainee who is pinned with charges
of carrying out a terrorist operation in
America. In a bid to clear her name, PC
sets out on a journey which will lead
her to the real culprit. Just that premise
gave us the goosebumps and we know
that Quantico is going to be loaded with
high-octane action sequences.
Priyanka shared this picture dressed up in
her battle gear from the sets of Quantico.
She is with her co-star Anabelle Acosta.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui Signs A Film

Opposite Amitabh Bachchan
For long now people have been wanting

to see Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Amitabh
Bachchan in a film together. In fact, even
Big B is very keen to do a film with the
Manjhi man; to an extent that hes already
asked Sujoy Ghosh to write a script
keeping them in mind. While an official
confirmation on the same is yet to be made.
Nawaz now assures he is definitely in talks
for a film with Sr Bachchan, but will only
announce once the script is ready.
Our film is very much on a premature
stage. We havent yet started working on
it. But I will soon be seen working with
him(Amitabh) in a film, said the actor
during a recent press con for his film
Manjhi-The Mountain Man.
Though Nawaz hasnt mentioned
anything about the Sujoy Ghosh film
but with the reports going by, it is likely
that he is hinting at the same film. A
source close to the project had earlier

revealed, Soon, there will be reading
sessions between Nawazuddin Siddiqui
and Amitabh Bachchan, and after that,
there will be workshops too. The shoot

will mostly commence in a few months.
Tentatively titled Kerala, the film might
go on floors by the end of this year.
Irrfan Khan And Aishwarya Rai

Bachchans Pairing In Jazbaa Gets A
Thumbs Up From Fans
Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Irrfan

Khan together in the same frame means
overload of good looks and talent. And it
seems that fans of the actor are delighted
to see him alongside Aishwarya in their
upcoming Sanjay Gupta film. Irrfan
too does not mind being sidelined by
a beauty like Ash. No wonder during a
press interaction the talented hero had
said, I will like it if I am sidelined by
Aishwarya. It is a good thing. One of
the major reasons why I did this film
is because of Aishwarya. I was looking
forward to understanding and seeing
her work from close quarters and it was
an exhilarating experience. And you
have to admire her because as a real life
mother she was taking care of her child
and also simultaneously shooting. There
is no bigger thing than that.
Looks like Irrfans new role and his costar have got him more attention and love
from fans. A source close to the actor
revealed, The actor is pleased with the new
604.510.4088
unconventional pairing of his withAsh. In fact

the real reason that Irrfan is thrilled about the
movie is coz he has got a lot of appreciation
from international fans on coming together
with Aishwarya Rai. The actor has received
several emails and messages on social media
stating how excited they are about his next

outing with Aishwarya.
All wed say is that when worlds most
beautiful woman comes together with
one of Bollywoods most talented hero it
definitely is a deadly combo!

Navua Vancouver, Samabula, Nadi, Rewa
and Labasa are the Canucks hopefuls.
Calgary Fijiana, Calgary Tavua (Premier)
and Edmonton and Edmonton Golden
Fiji (Masters) makes a small number of
province of Alberta representatives.
Chairman of the organization committee

He said Masters Managers meeting and
Pool draws were held on Wednesday

the North Surrey Oval on 96 th Avenue
and 160 th Street.
Los Angeles Kings forward Milan Lucic,

entering the final year of his contract,
said Monday he's always dreamed of
playing for his hometown Vancouver
Canucks.
"I honestly don't know what's going to
happen moving on," Lucic told TSN
1410 Radio in response to a direct
question on the topic. "I mean I have one
year left on my contract, and there's a
possibility that I can hit the [unrestricted
free agent] market. ...
"It's obviously something that's been a
dream of mine since I've been a kid, is to
play in your hometown and play for the
Canucks, but right now the main focus is
going down to L.A. and trying to make
the most of that."
Lucic, who was traded to the Kings by
the Boston Bruins on June 26, will make
$6.5 million this season (with an NHL
salary-cap charge to the Kings of $3.5
million, according to war-on-ice.com).
Los Angeles forward Anze Kopitar
also is entering his final contract year
and seemingly would be a priority for
the Kings, who are $4.5 million under
this season's $71.4 million salary cap,
according to the website.
Lucic, 27, said that all can wait till later,
with his focus on helping Los Angeles
return to the Stanley Cup Playoffs after
missing out one year after winning it all
in 2014.
"If you look at the roster, we're still a

really deep team that has another chance
to make a Cup run," Lucic said. "So right
now I'm more worried about that than
anything else."
Lucic (6-foot-3, 235 pounds) said he
expects his British Columbia background
to help him with Kings coach Darryl
Sutter, who is from Alberta.
"He loves the Western [Canada] boys,"
Lucic said. "And obviously my style
of play kind of fits his style, y'know,
the rough and tough Sutter type, so I'm
looking forward to playing for him and
to see what it's like to play for a different
coach."
Road trips also will be different for
Lucic, who will first play at Vancouver

on Dec. 28 and later at Boston on Feb. 9.
"I'm interested to see what's it's going
to be like, not just in Vancouver, just
around the League," Lucic told the "Bro
Jake Show." "To see what kind of road
presence the Kings have, because being
an Original Six team, we get a lot of
Bruins fans no matter where we are. So
I'm interested to see what it's going to be
like in Vancouver and everywhere else."
Lucic, who had 18 goals and 26 assists
in 81 games for Boston last season, was
traded to Los Angeles for goalie Martin
Jones, defenseman prospect Colin
Miller, and the 13th pick in the 2015
NHL Draft (defenseman Jakub Zboril).
