Infrastructure To Be
Jai Narayan Student
Improved This Year PM Scores The Highest In Year
13 Examination
The Prime Minister Rear Admiral

retired Voreqe Bainimarama said
governments immediate goal for
2015 is to improve infrastructure for
ordinary Fijians.
Bainimarama made the assurance in
his New Year message, saying its time
to put the countrys interest above our
own.
Reflecting on 2014, Prime Minister
Voreqe Bainimarama hinted whats
expected from government this year.
While much was achieved last year,
Bainimarama said theres still more to
accomplish.
There is still much to be done to catch
up as a nation on the lost years. The
years we squandered arguing about
who deserved more when we should
have been building a better future
for everyone. The years in which
selfish elites put their own interests
above the common good and ordinary
Fijians were deprived of some of the
necessities and opportunities of life.
said Bainimarama
One of Bainimaramas immediate goal
is to improve the lives of every Fijian.

To the many thousands of Fijians
affected by water cuts in recent times, I
want to say this: For 50 years, successive
governments neglected to maintain or
replace our pipes. But on the back of
our growing economy, I am determined
to finally fix the problem once and for
all. The same goes for our roads and
bridges and our transport links with
maritime communities, who didnt see
a new ship for nearly 40 years until we
came along. said Bainimarama
The Prime Minister also highlighted
plans for proper structuring of all
sectors of the economy.
The coming year will be about putting
the proper structures in place to carry
us into the future. The proper structures
in our economy to maintain the growth
we are now experiencing; the proper
infrastructure to keep trade flowing
and improve our export earnings;
the proper restructuring of the Civil
Service to make it more efficient and
improve its ability to serve our needs.
said Bainimarama
Dalo Quality Drops As

Demand Increases
The dalo sold in the market is not as
good as it's supposed to be.
These were the words of Agriculture
Ministry acting permanent secretary
Uraia Waibuta.
He said they were not really surprised
about the shortage in dalo as this was
an issue that had been going for quite
some time now.
After conducting a survey, the ministry
noticed the demands coming from the
people were high while production
was low. "Even our export market is
affected because of this situation," Mr
Waibuta said.
"The problem is because farmers

themselves do not want to plant so
when they do not want to plant, this is
the implication there is an increase
in demand.
"Farmers are harvesting their dalo at an
early size because the demands coming
from the people are high."
Mr Waibuta said farmers had an
important role to play in the market.
"Farmers have a very important role
to play and they need to understand
how the market operates and they
should be consistently producing for
the market."
Company Invests In New

Facility
Bumble Bee Seafood, one of North

America's largest canned seafood
companies, will work closely with the
Pacific Fishing Company in Levuka on
the construction of a new cold storage
facility.
According to the US-based company,
the new facility would replace the
present cold storage, which was about
25 years old.
"The facility will also increase
throughput as well as lower energy
costs associated with production," said
Bumble Bee executive vice president
and chief operating officer, Jan Tharp.
Ms Tharp told this newspaper several
upgrades were also planned for the
facility between 2015 and 2016.
Nischal Raj with his awardsLate
Late night studies and a number of

sacrifices have finally paid off for
18-year-old student, Nischal Singh of
Jai Narayan College who has scored
the highest mark in the Fiji Seventh
Form Examination in the country.
Singh who had also scored the highest
mark in the Fiji School Leaving
Certificate Examination in the country
last year scored 379 marks in the FSFE
this year.
Singh told the reporter that he was
surprised and shocked when his
Principal informed him that he has
done it once again.
His father Naveen Singh who runs a
rubber stamp company in Suva said he
is very proud of his only child.
Nischal Singh said he wants to become
a chartered accountant and plans to
advertise

pursue further studies in Fiji.

Singh scored 100 marks in Mathematics,
88 in English, 94 in Accounting, 97 in
Economics and 92 in Computer.
Meanwhile, Ministry of Education say
the overall percentage pass rate for this
year is 79.7 percent compared to 75.2
percent last year.
Out of the 7,246 students wrote the
examination this year, 5,773 passed.
Education Minister, Dr. Mahendra
Reddy while congratulating the
students said that the door is now open
for students to pursue their career and
this is also an opportune time to secure
financial assistance from the Toppers
and Loan Scheme.
He added that for those who have
failed the exam, there is still room for
further studies.

Bollywood Choreographer Teaches Locals Dance Moves

PUTTING on the final touches
to what is going to be Fiji's4first
Bollywood show in 2015, professional
choreographer Ganesh Hiwarkar was
in Nadi teaching local dancers moves
that would be part of the entertainment
in the Bula Desi Bollywood Show.
Local dancers were put through a
variety of dance routines that would
complement acts by Bollywood actor
Tusshar Kapoor, actress Zarine Khan
and comedian Ali Asgar.
Mr Hiwarkar said the show was
expected to attract thousands of
people wishing to get a glimpse of the
Bollywood celebrities.
"We've organised a very special show
for Bollywood fans here and we expect
a good turnout during the two shows,"
he said.
Mr Hiwarkar said the Fiji shows were

put together after a successful stint in
Australia earlier last year.
"We wanted to bring it to Fiji because we
know that there are a lot of Bollywood
fans here too and we wanted to bring
actors like Tusshar and Zarine to give
people a taste of Bollywood.
"Like any other Bollywood show, there
will be a lot of music and a variation
of dances from classical to modern, 4
which is seen in most Bollywood films.
"So there's a lot of practice that went
into this and I wanted to personally 4
come down to Fiji to prepare local
dancers for the show."
The Bula Desi Show will be held on
January 9 at the Vodafone Arena in
Suva and at Nadi's Prince Charles Park
on January 10.
Employers will pay 10 per cent as

mandatory contribution towards their
employees retirement savings.
The contribution is an increase of two
per cent from the previous eight per
cent employers contribution.
An employees contribution on the
other hand remain the same at eight per
cent as per according to their wages
and salary.
This was part of FijiFirst Governments
manifesto and will enable employees to

accumulate retirement savings much faster.
FNPF chief executive, Aisake Taito said
FNPF believes this would create more
opportunities for contributing members
to boost their retirement savings.
This means, employers will adhere
to the new contribution rate, starting
with January 2015 wages, due end of
February 2015, Mr Taito said.
Also, compulsory members (those
Employees Given Choice For FNPF Deduction

in employment) can choose to pay
more than the mandatory 8 per cent
contributions from their wages.
Requests will be assessed by the
employer and FNPF to ensure
that members are still within the
financial commitment ratio as per the
Employment Relations Promulgation.
The maximum additional contributions
that a member can opt for, is inclusive
of excess contributions; which is
paid by some employers as part of

employees benefit.
Members who will be deducting additional
contributions towards their FNPF
accounts will need to decide on whether
these deductions are to be directed to their
Preserved or General Account.
The general account can be accessed
for early or pre-retirement withdrawals
whilst the Preserved Account is
reserved for retirement.

A study surveying people in 65

countries has found happiness is on the

The research by polling organisation

The group's annual global End of

This year, researchers asked a sample

their happiness, and whether the

than the last.
Respondents were also asked about
their country's economic prosperity,
and whether they would go to war for
their country.
Fiji was by far the happiest country in
the world: 93 per cent of respondents
said that they were either happy or very

couched as an informal suggestion,

administration is becoming comfortable
about allowing companies to work
around the nation's four-decades-old
ban on exporting untreated crude oil.
Last month, BHP Billiton Ltd (BHP.AX)
became the first company to announce
it would export lightly processed ultralight US oil without explicit permission
from the Government. It said it was on
firm legal footing because its product
was similar to what the agency had
already blessed for other companies in
a landmark ruling earlier this year.
But until recently, the Government's
attitude toward the self-classification
for crude has been unclear. Officials
have repeatedly declined to comment
on what has become one of the year's
most contentious and controversial
energy policy topics, beyond saying
that it is under review because of the
surprising surge in US oil production.

into small business as a means to earn

income under the Welfare to Workfare
Program.
In 2014, more than 18,000 people were
assisted under the Poverty Benefit
Scheme, 11,615 senior citizens assisted
through its Social Pension Scheme,
42,475 individuals catered for under
the Bus Fare Subsidies, and more
than 5000 children provided for under
the ministry's Care and Protection
Program.
Minister for Poverty Alleviation, Rosy
Akbar says all these welfare programs
continues in 2015, with it changes
in payment of some of the welfare
allowances.
The changes include the monthly
Food Voucher payment increased to
$50, Poverty Benefit Scheme (PBS)
allowances reduced by $10 and the
monthly Social Pension Scheme
payment increased to $50.
Another change sees the age eligibility
for the Social Pension Scheme further
reduced from 70 to 68 in July.
"The disabled and elderly aged 60
years and above will also continue to be
assisted with an allocation of $150,000
for the Bus Fare Subsidies to ease the
costs of travel," Akbar said.
"The Care and Protection Program has
budgetary allocation of $2 million. This

allowance provides for the care and
support of children of single mothers,
prisoners, those cared for by family
members or guardians and children in
Residential Homes such as Dilkusha
Girls Home, Homes of Hope, Lomani
Au Childrens Home and St. Meenas
Home - to name a few.
"It also caters for children living with
Disabilities. Currently, there are more
than 5000 children benefiting from
this program and the Ministry expects
the number to increase as awareness
spreads about the assistance that is
available."
Also in 2015, the ministry is resuming
the Welfare to Workfare Program with
an allocation of $500,000 provided in
the 2015 Budget.
"The programme provides skills
training opportunities and startup capital to able-bodied social
welfare recipients to venture into
income generating projects and small
businesses.
"The 2015 budget aims to expand those
opportunities to many more families."
Meanwhile, recipients are advised the
next collection of food vouchers will
be available at all the social welfare
offices starting January 6, 2015.

Mahendra Reddy And

Basundra Kumar Trade
Words As Row Deepens
Minister for Education Mahendra
Reddy and former acting permanent
secretary Basundra Kumar traded
accusations as an internal row broke
out into the open.
Mr Reddy said Mrs Kumar resigned
because of an investigation against her
being carried out by Public Service
Commission. He said that it was in
relation to a case at the College.
She was investigated by the ministry
and then the preliminary report was
sent to the Public Service Commission
who then set up another committee to
investigate her, Dr Reddy said.
She was then presented with a report and
a suspension letter outlining evidences
against her on Monday afternoon.
Instead of facing the committee and
defending herself, she tendered in her
resignation.
The suspension letter read that she was
being indefinitely suspended without
pay.
However, Mrs Kumar said the issue was
dated back to October and questioned
why she was not investigated then.
She said this was a clear indication of
personal vendetta against her.
The suspension is issued regarding
a case at .. College where
the particular school principal

was exercising lethargy and the
Mathematics teacher did not know her
work, she said.
I could be sent on leave because I
have some pending leave and I never
took my leave.
Normally, the procedure is that you
send the person on leave if there is a
serious problem but this is not a serious
problem.
Dr Reddy said had Mrs Kumar been
innocent then she would have attended
the meeting and defended herself since
the PSC provided her a chance to
respond to the allegations against her.
Mrs Kumar said: This is a lie, I was
never investigated, the report given to
me was not from PSC but from Deputy
Secretary for Education.
I am not scared of investigation; I
am willing to go for an investigation
provided that the minister vacates his
office because he is likely to influence
the investigation. He has agenda.
Mrs Kumar said she would write to the
PSC and withdraw her resignation for a
full and fair investigation to take place.
She said if it was a fight of who was
innocent and who was guilty, then she
was ready to prove her innocence.

Fijian households will have to apply

for the free water provision offered
in 2015, Fiji's Water Authority chief
executive (CEO) Opetaia Ravai
confirms.
Responding to queries, Ravai says the
application has to be accompanied by
documental proof about their earnings
which will be assessed to determine
whether they qualify to receive free
water.
Under the free water scheme, Fijians
who earn $30,000 per household
income or less will be entitled to 50
litres of water per person per day free
of charge.
"An advertisement will be put out to
advise the public when they can start
sending in their applications," Ravai

said.
"We have not decided on a date when
applications will be open, but it will be
done when we are ready."
The free water component will be
administered via the household billing
which is sent to customers every three
months.
The free water scheme is among new
initiatives promised by the Fijian
Government to roll out in 2015, including
a 10 per cent increased contribution from
employers towards worker's pension
funds, free education extended to
qualified kindergarten schools, provision
of milk to Year 1 students, free medicine
and quality education.
Passengers Injured
A few passengers are in serious condition

at the Labasa Hospital after the van
they were travelling in veered off the
road and tumbled along the infamous
Lomaloma-bend at the CakaudroveMacuata border on Wednesday.
Divisional police commander Northern
SSP Shiri Bhawan Singh confirmed the
incident, saying the victims were rushed to
the Labasa Hospital for medical treatment.
"The incident happened about midday.
The victims were among other
passengers who were rushed to the
hospital," he said.
"They were making their way to
Labasa when the driver of the van lost
control of the brakes while descending
from the bend.
"Some of them have been treated and
sent home while a few of them need
further special medical attention."
SSP Singh said police officers were
conducting preliminary investigations.
"Right now, we are conducting our
initial investigations before pursuing
further actions."

his involvement in a recent drug raid
which netted $F30 million of heroin,

before Justice De Silva.
Also in court on the day will be Nadi
businessman Mohammed Shaheed Khan,
a joint Australian and Fijian citizen, on a
similar charge of importing the drugs.
Fijian authorities found the drugs
tightly packed in about 80 packets
found in the tires of a quad bike hidden
in a container from Thailand at the
Lautoka Wharf two weeks ago.

Free Medicine Registration

Starts
The nationwide registration for the free

medicine programme has started.
Pharmacy intern at Colonial War
Memorial Hospital (CWM), Zafiya
Shagufta, said: People are now
collecting the forms from the
receptionist but the number of response
is less just because of less awareness
by the ministry.
Josefa Kolinibaravii, 29, a patient at
the hospital said the free medicine
programme was gift from Government
and it would help poor and needy
people.
I thank Government for such a great

start, Mr Kolinibaravi said.
Free registration forms are available
at all health centres. Those eligible
will need to present several official
documents including:
- an original certified birth certificate,
- evidence of annual salary less than
$20,000 or statutory declaration
statement,
- certified marriage certificate,
- Fiji National Provident Fund or
electronic voter registration card for
registration.
Immigration Department
Looks At Passport Options
Fiji's Department of Immigration is

exploring the possibility of printing
passport books at its divisional offices
in Lautoka and Labasa-Savusavu.
Director Immigration Nemani Vuniwaqa
said doing so would reduce a backlog of
passport applications received in Suva
through its divisional offices.
We are looking into this however,
that would mean an extensive research
on our part which we are currently
undertaking in Labasa and Suva, he
said.
However, we have been working
very hard in ensuring that our passport
services are more streamlined and this
has meant a faster clearance of backlogs

that we used to have in the past.
Vuniwaqa highlighted that despite the
challenges encountered in 2014, the
department will strengthen its services
to the public.
We have enough (35, 000) passport
books with us on standby and we have
received positive reviews about our
services which we are aiming to even
better in the New Year.
We have been inundated with
applications and requests from former
Fiji residents and many of them have
started working towards coming back
home.
16 Years Jail Term For

Rape Of Sisters
A single 44-year-old man of Tunuloa

in Vanua Levu who raped two
underaged sisters on four different
occasions between April 2012 and
August 2013 has been sentenced to 16
years imprisonment by a high court in
Labasa.
Justice Daniel Goundar also ordered
that Jale Mario is not eligible for parole
until he has served 12 years.
Mario was convicted of four counts of
rape and one count of sexual assault.
The first victim, the younger sibling,
was 10 years old and in Year 5 when
she was raped twice - the first time
during the first term school holidays in
2012 and the second during the second
term of the school holidays.
The third time Mario raped her was on
September 22, 2013 when she was 11
years old.
The second victim was 11 years old
when Mario indecently assaulted her
on the second school term of 2012. The
victim's brother, aged nine, witnessed

the assault.
She was 12 when Mario raped her on
August 16, 2013.
The rape incidents happened at Mario's
home, at times when the children were
sent on errands and at other times at
Mario's invitation.
In sentencing Mario, Justice Gounder
said the rape of a child is a very serious
crime and that sentences imposed
by courts must signify that society
denounces any form of sexual abuse of
children.
"For the offence of rape, I use the same
starting point (12 years). I increase the
sentence to 20 to reflect the serious
aggravating factors. I make a reduction
of 2 1/2 years to reflect your mitigating
factors and 1 1/2 years to reflect your
remand period.
"On each count of rape, I sentence you to
16 years' imprisonment. All sentences
are to be served concurrently."

Police Warn Suva Citizens

To Stay Out Of Water
Meanwhile the Fiji Police Force is

concerned that people continue to fish
and swim along the Nasese foreshore.
Police officers were briefed to keep
people out of Suvas picnic areas.
One area of concern is the sea side
in Nasese, My Suva Park which is an
area of concern to all of us because
of the spillage down the Cunnigham
River and despite the warning people
are still going to fish in the area and I
hope that for the time being there just
adhere to the warning that is given,
said Fiji Police, Chief of Operations,
ACP Rusiate Tudravu.
Police will penalise people who
continue to ignore warnings.

We have been brief this morning that
there are some dead fish been found in
there shoreline. I hope that people can
take this in to consideration that this
place is not safe to go. We dont want
to go to the extent of arresting people
but there security is paramount to us,
If we have to go down that line for the
security of the community then we will
do it, Tudravu said.
Swimming and fishing in waters
around Suva have been banned due to
the sewerage spillage from the waste
water pipes that burst following heavy
rains two weeks ago.
The Ports Authority will be making

changes in February or March
2015 to increase productivity at our
international ports.
Thats the phrase of confidence from
Ports Terminal Limited when they
introduce a worldwide automated
system it said would streamline Ports
Terminals rather obsolete process, this
time next week.
The Terminal Operating System helps
container, intermodal rail and shipping
line terminal operators increase
capacity and optimise operations to
increase efficiency, lower costs and
improve productivity.
With the system, it also means
a transition from a paper-based
organisation to the paperless and
electronic/automated one.
Ports Terminal operations manager,
Nabeel Ali said, the system would focus
on ship planning and yard planning as
these were at the top of their concerns.
Coordinating a handful of containers
given the current container yard space
was difficult as there was a lot of traffic
at port.
He said with the new system and right
people they were already equipped with,
efficiency could be taken a step further.
We have put a foundation currently
by taking the ship particulars with all
required information to be fed into the
system, Mr Ali said.
And once the ship planning is up
and running, everything will be pretty
straightforward-everything will be
documented in the system.
At the click of a button, exchange of
emails and everything from organising
of ship berths to placing containers
in the ship yards would have been
streamlined.
The Ports Terminal with stakeholders

would have access to the information
through the Electronic Data Interchange.
This system transfers data from
one computer system to another by
standardized message formatting,
without the need for human intervention.
For Lautoka Ports Terminal manager
Sanath Kumara, he said the port had
undergone many changes.
And Just like Suva Ports Terminal,
Lautoka Ports will not compromise
productivity and efficiency for the
current challenges they face.
Our biggest challenge is the quay
length and the yard space. Sometimes
the yard gets congested due to increase
of volumes, Mr Kumara said.
Also we hope to have another
container handler.
In order to resolves the issues, Mr
Kumara said they have been discussing
the arising matter with Fiji Ports
Corporation Limited on a regular basis
with development has started.
The development is also handled
by FPCL. We have submitted our
recommendations to them and what we
know is that they have a master plan
for all ports, Mr Kumara said.
The only way to control is to expedite
deliveries and control receiving. We
are not permitted to store containers
outside our premises.
He said overall the 2014 year was
good, and the improvements were
quite visible.
Our main stakeholders such as Punjas
and Fiji Water are satisfied, but there is
a long way to go.
He said keeping up with the global
environment is another challenge in
terms of ensuring safety and providing
services is their top priority.

Edmonton Mass Murder: Victims Identified, All Died

Of Gunshot Wounds
Court documents show gunman threatened to kill wife and family in 2012
Edmonton police have identified the

victims in this weeks mass murder,
saying Phu Lams shooting rampage
claimed the life of his common-law
partner, several of her family members
including her eight-year-old son and
three-year old niece and a family
friend.
Lam, who took his own life after the
killings, appears to have spared the
lives of a one-year-old and an eightmonth-old baby who may have been in
the north Edmonton home at the time
of the deadly attack.
Lam's common-law partner, Thuy Tien
Truong, 35, was slain along with her
son, her sister, her parents, her niece
and a friend at a north Edmonton
home between 3:45 a.m. and 8 a.m. on
Sunday, police said.
Police identified the victims after
Thursdays autopsies, but noted they were
still struggling to figure out the motive
behind the shocking slayings. Truong
and Lam may have been estranged,
Acting Deputy Chief Mark Neufeld said
at a news conference Friday.
"We will chase down everything we
can to try and find out the reasons why,
because I think it's important but
at the end of the day you try to import
rational thought sometimes into an
irrational act, and a lot of times it just
never comes," he said.
Cyndi Duong, 37, was killed at her
southwest Edmonton home around
6:50 p.m. Monday. She was not the
intended target of the shooter.
Lam was found dead of an apparent
suicide in a restaurant in Fort
Saskatchewan on Tuesday morning.
Police didn't find the bodies of people
in the north-end home until 12:23 a.m.

Tuesday.
Neufeld said that on Monday, around
10 a.m., Lam dropped off two children
his one-year-old daughter and eightmonth-old nephew at the home of a
relative, the person who later contacted
police.
"The homicides, we believe, did take
place prior to Mr. Lam dropping off
those two children," Neufeld said.
"So theres a very good possibility
that those two young children were in
the house, in the north end, when the
homicides took place. And yes, for
whatever reason, the two children were
spared."
The victims are:
Thuy Tien Truong, 35, partner of
Phu Lam (known as Tien Truong).
Elvis Lam, 8, son of Thuy-Tien
Truong.
Thanh Ha Thi Truong, 33, sister of
Thuy Tien Truong (known as Ha
Truong).
Valentina Nguyen, 3, daughter
of Ha Thi Truong, niece of Tien
Truong.
Thi Dau Le, 55, mother of Thuy
Tien and Thanh Ha Thi Truong.
Van Dang Truong, 55, estranged
husband of Thi Dau Le and father
of Thuy Tien and Thanh Ha Thi
Truong.
Viet Nguyen, 41, friend of Thuy
Tien Truong.
Cyndi Duong, 37. Police believe
she was not the intended victim of
the shooter.
Neufeld also outlined the timeline of
the case. Tien Truong finished her last
shift at work at 2 a.m. Sunday. Her
sister Ha Truong sent a text message

from the north-end home at 3:45.
Tien Truong and her mother failed
to show up at work at 8 a.m. Sunday.
When Ha Truong's estranged husband
knocked on the door at that time, no
one answered. He also noticed a black
SUV parked outside.
The black SUV was seen briefly
outside the home around 9:45 a.m.
Monday. Lam dropped off the two
younger children at a relative's home
15 minutes later.
Later that afternoon, Lam went to a
home in southwest Edmonton. He left
around 6 p.m. and went to the home
of Cyndi Duong. Duong was shot
and killed around 6:50 p.m. Police
found her shortly afterwards while
responding to a weapons complaint.
Neufeld said the manhunt started
around 11 p.m. Monday. The SUV led
police to the VN Express Restaurant in
Fort Saskatchewan, he said.
The gun used in the slayings was
registered in British Columbia in 1997
and stolen from Surrey in 2006. Police
are investigating how Lam was able to
obtain it.
Abuse, threats
Earlier on Friday, court documents
showed that Lam threatened to kill
Tien Truong and her whole family in
2012.
Truong gave the testimony in an
emergency protection hearing in
November 2012.
The documents say that Lam learned
through genetic tests that he was not
the biological father of his son, who
was born in 2006.
Truong said that Lam physically
abused and choked her on Nov. 2,

2012, after presenting the DNA results
to her parents.
Following a hearing four days later, she
was granted an emergency protection
order that prevented Lam from going
within 200 metres of her parents' home
and not to have direct contact with her,
her son, her sister and her parents.
In her video testimony, Truong said
Lam planned to kill her whole family
two weeks earlier and kept making the
threats. He was going to look for a gun,
but no one would sell one to him, she
said.
She testified through a interpreter that
he had abused and choked her several
times throughout their marriage; at one
point she said she nearly died. He also
terrorized her with threats.
"He would threaten her to say that he
would give her the phone, tell her to
call the cops and then kill her on the
spot so when the cops come that they
would be there to pick up her body,"
the interpreter said.
She testified that she wanted to move
back with her parents.
The protection order was granted until
Nov. 26, but extended into January
2013. The order was revoked when
neither Lam nor his wife appeared in
court for a review on Jan. 18, 2013, the
expiry date on the order.
Lam was charged with assault, sexual
assault and seven counts of uttering
death threats in November 2012 but
the charges were stayed on Dec. 21,
2012.
Neufeld confirmed that some of the
people targeted in those threats were
slain in the north end home.
Recruiting In-Demand, Skilled Immigrants To Canada

Express Entry will contribute to Canadas economic growth and international competitiveness
Canadas Citizenship and Immigration

Minister Chris Alexander celebrated
the successful launch of Express Entry
a highly anticipated new application
management system designed to get
people with the skills to succeed in
Canadas economy here faster than
ever.
Starting January 1, skilled workers
who want to apply to Canadas key
economic immigration programs are
able to create an online profile and
express their interest in coming to
Canada permanently.
Candidates who meet the minimum
criteria will be accepted into the pool
and will be ranked according to various
factors. These include language
proficiency, education and work
experience. Each is a leading indicator
of ones likelihood of integrating fully

and quickly into Canadas economy
and Canadian society.
The highest ranking skilled workers
will be invited to apply for permanent
residence and most will see their
application processed in six months
or less. The first invitations to apply
will be issued during the last week of
January.
Express Entry marks major progress
for skilled foreign nationals and
employers alike. Express Entry will
allow Citizenship and Immigration
Canada to identify those who are most
likely to succeed economically in
Canada, instead of simply processing
applications on a first-come, firstserved basis. This will result in
faster processing and will allow the
Government of Canada to be more

flexible and respond better to Canadas
changing labour market needs.
Quick facts
Express Entry will manage
applications for three federal
economic immigration programs:
the Federal Skilled Worker
Program, Federal Skilled Trades
Program and the Canadian
Experience Class.
Provinces and Territories will
be able to use the Express Entry
system to select a portion of
candidates for their Provincial
Nominee Programs.
Once candidates have been invited
to apply for permanent residence
they will need to complete the
immigration
process,
which
includes health and security
checks. Complete applications will
be processed in six months or less.
Canada has admitted more than 1.6
million new permanent residents
since 2006, and will admit between
260,000 and 285,000 in 2015
alone. There are many reasons the
worlds best and brightest Choose
Canada.

Cost Of Becoming
Canadian Has Gone Up
Resolving to become a Canadian

citizen in 2015? Its going to be more
expensive.
For the second time in a year, the
Conservative government has hiked
the fee it charges to make someone a
citizen.
The new price for processing
citizenship documents has been set at
$530 as of Jan. 1, up from the formerly
new price set last February of $300.
The government has been angling
to increase citizenship fees for some
time, arguing would-be citizens should
cover more of the cost of processing
their applications.
In an analysis of the new fees,
the Citizenship and Immigration
Department says the higher price will
allow it to recoup almost all of the
$555 in costs.
Put another way, the government says
thats an estimated $41 million it wont
have to spend.
In its analysis, the department said
the fee jump may impose additional
financial pressures on some people or
families.
While the analysis assumes that
there will not be a reduction in overall
demand for citizenship as a result of
the fee increase, it is acknowledged
that some may be required to delay
their application as they will need
more time to save for the new fee, the
analysis says.
Overall, in the long term, this will
likely not have a significant impact on
the uptake for citizenship.

When citizenship processing fees were
first increased from $100 to $300 in
February, it was the first time since
1995 there had been a raise.
Then, opposition politicians slammed
the jump for appearing haphazard,
arguing no specific justification was
given for setting the new price.
At the time, the government argued
raising the fee to cover the full cost of
processing would be going too far.
Increasing the service fees for grant
and resumption applications to reflect
100 per cent cost recovery would have
imposed too large a fee increase and
too much hardship on applicants, the
department said in its analysis for that
fee change.
The new fee structure is in addition
to the $100 right-of-citizenship fee
which gets returned if a citizenship
application is not accepted.
Anyone who applied for citizenship
prior to Jan. 1 2015 will still pay the
old fee.
The opposition also said that it was
unfair to hike fees when people
were waiting years to receive their
citizenship; at the end of 2013, the
backlog of cases was close to 400,000
cases.
But with the new fees comes a promise
by the government that theyre making
headway on cutting through the pile.
The department says wait times for new
citizens will fall to under 12 months at
some point in the next fiscal year.
Vancouver Meter Collector

Ordered To Repay More
Than $200K
Dan Wong allegedly stole cash over a four-year period
A parking meter collector has been

ordered to repay more than $200,000
he allegedly stole from the City of
Vancouver's parking lots.
According to B.C. Supreme Court
documents, Dan Wong regularly took
funds from EasyPark cashboxes over a
period of four years.
EasyPark runs the City of Vancouver's
lots and revenue from the corporation
is supposed to go back to the city.
In his examination for discovery, Wong
told EasyPark lawyers he used a paper clip
to jimmy the EasyPark collection boxes.
According to documents filed in B.C.
Supreme Court, Wong managed to

Metro Vancouver Property

Values Continue To Rise
Property values in Metro Vancouver

continue to climb, according to the
latest assessment.
The value of the average single-family
home in Vancouver is up by nearly 10
per cent this year.
The jump in value of your property
varies
depending
on
which
neighbourhood you live in. On the west
side, the average house in now worth
$1.6 million, but an east side home is
worth just under $1 million.
Deputy Assessor Dharmesh Sisodraker
says they look at the same things
buyers do. Market value encompasses
everything that a property purchaser
would look at when theyre in the
marketplace anything from views
to location to proximity on a street, the

type of home, [abd] the size of the lot.
But the same increase isnt being
noticed on the condo side. The value of
the average two-bedroom condo on the
east side rose by only about $15,000
this year.
Sisodraker says that mostly flat trend is
seen across the region.
We reflect what happens in the
marketplace, in terms of price levels.
Some of the factors in behind why a
single-family market would increase
and a condo market would remain
stable, you know, I really cant say, he
admits.
Homes around the Lower Mainland
have mostly all gained in value.
Canada-Wide Winter
Weather Warnings
Less than two weeks into winter,

Canadians from coast to coast have
been warned to prepare for true-toform seasonal weather conditions this
weekend.
Environment Canada is warning that
a large winter storm system is moving
from the U.S. into Ontario, Quebec, and
Atlantic Canada this weekend. The storm
will bring a roller coaster of temperatures
to Ontario and Quebec that will include
snow, ice pellets and rain.
The weather office has issued a
special weather statement to say that
a "significant winter storm" will hit
southern Ontario Saturday.
The timing and amount of precipitation
is uncertain, and conditions could
change quickly, so those with weekend
travel plans across Ontario and Quebec
are being advised to prepare for
"dangerous road conditions."
Environment Canada says the storm
will begin sometime Saturday
afternoon as snow, with between five
and 10 centimeters falling on central
and eastern Ontario and "heavy
snowfall" hitting most of Quebec.
Then, as temperatures rise to as high as
double digits in some areas, the snow
will transition to rain by Saturday night
or Sunday.
Freezing rain and ice pellets are likely
during the transition, and may be
especially bad in areas northwest of the
Golden Horseshoe (between Niagara
Falls and Oshawa). The Ottawa Valley
is also expected to be hit hard by the
snow and rain.
By Sunday night, temperatures will
plummet again and then stay low for
the rest of the week.
As the temperature drops Sunday
night, residents across most of southern
and eastern Ontario can expect strong
winds and flurries.
In northern Ontario, the same storm
system is expected to bring a steady
snowstorm that will extend from the
Manitoba border to Quebec.

Storm headed east
Further east, the storm system should
hit Atlantic Canada by Sunday,
bringing 10 to 15 centimeters of snow
in the morning and then changing to ice
pellets or freezing rain later in the day.
A similar pattern will begin in
Newfoundland later Sunday, with heavy
snowfall expected in the afternoon,
changing to ice pellets, drizzle and
strong winds by Monday morning.
Environment Canada is advising
Atlantic residents to monitor future
forecasts for further warnings about
this storm.
Alberta snow
Meanwhile, parts of western and
central Alberta are still under a snowfall
warning from a separate Alberta
Clipper weather system that is now
beginning to move into Saskatchewan.
Environment Canada says those areas
can expect snowfall totals of 15 to 20
centimeters Friday, while the cities of
Edmonton and Calgary will see closer
to 5 to 10 centimeters.
It's warning drivers that visibility
may be reduced at times, while roads,
walkways and parking lots may
become difficult to navigate because of
the snow.
Pacific Coast
And in British Columbia, a high
pressure system over Yukon will send a
dose of frigid air south and west through
the B.C. Interior. That cold front should
run into a moisture-packing Pacific
warm front, creating a messy "montage
of rapidly changing winter conditions,"
Environment Canada says.
Vancouver will see a few flakes of
snow before 40 to 50 mm of rain falls
Sunday, followed by another 30 to 40
mm on Monday.
In the mountains of Whistler, that
precipitation will come in the form of
20 cm of snow on Sunday, followed by
10 to 15 of rain on Monday.

Virgin Atlantic Jet Lands Safely With Landing Gear

Problem
A Virgin Atlantic passenger plane

landed safely at London's Gatwick
Airport after discovering a problem
with part of its main landing gear.
Virgin flight VS43 with 447 passengers
and 15 crew was travelling from
Gatwick to Las Vegas when it had to
return.
The Boeing 747 circled over southern
England for several hours dumping
fuel before making a bumpy but safe
landing just before 16:00 GMT.
Gatwick's runway reopened at 19:03
GMT after being closed by the
emergency.
Arriving flights were diverted to other
London airports, while departing aircraft
were severely delayed while the Virgin
jet was being assessed on the runway.
In a statement, Gatwick Airport said:
"The airport is now facilitating inbound
and outbound flights but it will take
some time for normal service to resume.
"We advise passengers to check with
their airlines on the status of their
flight. Updates will also be posted on
the Gatwick website and on Twitter."
They said the airport was working
with its airline partners to provide
food, drink and welfare facilities
to those affected by the delays and
cancellations and that volunteers were
helping provide advice.
Circled airport
The 13-year-old aircraft had left
Gatwick for the US at 11:30 GMT on
Monday.
After detecting the problem, the
aircraft needed to fly holding patterns
over Devon and then Sussex to dump
fuel in order to be light enough to land.
Before the successful conclusion to the
incident, Virgin announced the plane
would be carrying out a "non-standard
landing procedure" at Gatwick airport.
Pictures posted on Twitter of the aircraft
circling over East and West Sussex
showed part of the main landing gear
had not fully extended.
Eyewitnesses reported the jet was
flying at relatively low altitude and the
pilot appeared to be trying to "shake"
the landing gear down.
Nick Hughes, who was on board, said

the crew made several attempts to try
to free the landing gear.
"They put the thrust on quite heavily
and then dipped down, I think, to try
and loosen the gears but obviously
nothing kind of worked.
'Some crying'
"They gave it every opportunity before
they tried the emergency landing. All
credit due to the crew and the staff
and of course the pilots because the
landing was probably one of the softest
landings I've ever had."
Another passenger, Hardeek Desai, said:
"The staff was trying to keep everyone
calm but a few passengers were a bit
panicky. One of the crew came out to
the seating area to reassure everyone
everything was going to be OK.
"The staff was giving out things like
drinks and water to everyone to make
sure everyone's OK. Generally, the
mood was pretty good at this point
until we hit the brace position."
Describing the mood on the plane as
it was circling, passenger Dan Crane,
24, from Bromsgrove, Worcestershire,
said it was "anxious, a lot were
worried, some crying. The mood was
quiet, just waiting for the captain's next
announcement."
Mr Crane, who was with family and
friends, said the crew kept everyone
A 2-year-old boy accidentally shot and

killed a woman after he reached into
her purse at a northern Idaho Wal-Mart
and her concealed gun fired, authorities
said Tuesday.
The woman was shopping with several
children, and it is unclear how they
are related, Kootenai County sheriff's
spokesman Stu Miller said. Authorities
originally said the boy was the woman's
son.
The woman, whose identity was not
released, had a concealed weapons
permit.
Miller said the shooting was accidental
and occurred in the Wal-Mart in
Hayden, Idaho, a town about 40 miles

northeast of Spokane, Washington.
The woman and the children were in
the back of the store near the electronics
area when the shooting occurred,
authorities said.
KREM-TV reported that witnesses
and video surveillance from the store
helped deputies determine the shooting
was accidental.
The store closed after the shooting
and was not expected to reopen until
Wednesday morning.
Hayden is a politically conservative town
of about 9,000 people just north of Coeur
d'Alene in Idaho's northern panhandle.

Woman In Store
informed, adding: "They said it was

an emergency landing and we had to
brace on impact."
Sunjay Patel told the BBC: "It's been
a rollercoaster. Yesterday I found out
that I was going to Vegas for my 30th
birthday, and not going to Vegas today
it's been quite a crazy 24 hours. I can't
wait to get to Vegas to enjoy it now."
He said the passengers had been taken
to a hotel but they did not know when
there would be a replacement flight.
'Upsetting situation'
Another passenger, Mike Kaufman,
said: "This was one of the greatest
emergency landings in history. It was

very smooth."
He praised the pilots and the cabin
crew, saying the landing had been
"textbook".
Virgin Atlantic chief executive Craig
Kreeger said: "I am very pleased to
confirm that all customers and crew
have now disembarked the VS43
flight to Las Vegas, which returned to
Gatwick airport following a problem
with one of the landing gear.
"I understand that this will have
been a very upsetting situation for
the customers involved, and for their
friends and family, and will have
significantly disrupted people's holiday
plans.
"We will make sure they are well
looked after this evening, and will be
operating a special flight tomorrow for
everyone who would like to continue
their journey."
Virgin Atlantic president Sir Richard
Branson tweeted: "Well done @
VirginAtlantic pilots & team for safe
& skilful landing of #VS43. Thoughts
with passengers & crew, thanks for
support & patience."
A spokesman for British pilots'
organisation Balpa said: "Pilots train
hard for exactly this kind of situation.
It goes to show that well-trained pilots
are vital."
An Indonesian family of 10 say they

had a miraculous escape when they
arrived too late to catch AirAsia flight
QZ8501, which went missing shortly
after take-off on the way to Singapore.
Christianawati, 36, said the group,
including her family, her mother and her
younger brother's family, were heading
to Singapore to celebrate New Year.
The six adults and four children were
originally booked on the 7:30am flight
but AirAsia moved them to flight
QZ8501 scheduled for two hours earlier.
"They emailed and called us on
December 15 and 16 to inform us but
we missed those calls," she said.
"So we arrived at the airport to check in
for the 7:30am flight but were told our
flights had been rescheduled to 5:30am
and we were late. Of course we were

angry," she said.
"While the new tickets were being
reissued, we heard that the earlier plane
had crashed so we cancelled our flights
immediately," she said.
"I was shocked to hear about it and
cried. Maybe it is all God's plan that
my family and I were not on the flight.
It was a blessing in disguise," she said.
"I hope that the plane is found and
everyone is safe."
Christianawati said she would be
switching airlines.
"We travel to Singapore twice a year
and always by AirAsia. We consider it
a safe airline ... but now our confidence
in AirAsia is somewhat shaken and we
shall just stick to Garuda Indonesia."
A man has been charged with using a

five-year-old boy to sell drugs on the
streets of Sydney.
Video taken by New South Wales police
allegedly shows the boy handing over
a small package and collecting money
in return.
Police allege the man used the child
in at least three drug deals in Sydney's
east earlier this month.

The 34-year-old man was arrested at
home in Woolloomooloo on Tuesday.
He was charged with supplying prohibited
drugs and procuring a child under 16 to
take part in the supplying of drugs.
The man faced Parramatta Local Court
where he was refused bail.
He will face court again in February.

Airasia QZ8501: Multiple Bodies, Wreckage Recovered

In Search For Missing Plane
An Indonesian warship has recovered

three bodies from the sea in the search
for the AirAsia jet, Indonesia's National
Search and Rescue Agency says.
Earlier in the day, a navy spokesman
told the media a warship had retrieved
more than 40 bodies but later
retracted the statement saying it was a
miscommunication by staff.
Indonesia's National Search and
Rescue Agency chief Bambang
Soelistyon said: "Today we evacuated
three bodies and they are now in the
warship Bung Tomo".
An Indonesian air force plane spotted
items resembling an emergency slide,
plane door and other objects in the
search for missing AirAsia flight
QZ8501 earlier in the day.
AirAsia has released a statement
confirming the debris found is from
flight QZ8501.
Indonesian president Joko Widodo
said all available ships and helicopters
would be deployed to the area where
the debris was found.
He urged the families of the passengers
and crew to "be strong as they faced
this difficult moment".
Red and white debris spotted
Earlier, authorities gave media an
update in which they showed a video
of a body floating in the Java Sea.
"Based on the observation by search
and rescue personnel, significant
things have been found such as a
passenger door and cargo door," Djoko
Murjatmodjo, director general of air
transportation at the transportation
ministry, said.
"It's in the sea, 160 kilometres southwest of Pangkalan Bun," he said,
referring to the town in Central
Kalimantan on the island of Borneo.
He said aircraft searching for the
missing aircraft had sighted "red and
white-coloured" debris off the coast of

Kalimantan.
Eleven divers were sent to the site and
will search in an area of water about
25-30 metres deep.
There was no word on the possibility
of any survivors and the plane has
not been found, although Indonesian
authorities have spotted a shadow
under the water they believed was the
aircraft.
Pictures of floating bodies were
broadcast on television and relatives of
the missing gathered at a crisis centre
in Surabaya.
Several people collapsed in grief and
were helped away, a Reuters reporter
said.
"You have to be strong," the mayor of
Surabaya, Tri Rismaharini, said as she
comforted relatives.
"They are not ours, they belong to
God."
A navy spokesman said a plane door,
oxygen tanks and one body had been
US president Barack Obama has

surprised a newlywed couple by calling
to apologise after his golfing schedule
forced them to change their wedding
plans.
Two US army officers, captains
Natalie Heimel and Edward Mallue,
had planned to get married on Sunday
at the Kaneohe Klipper Golf Course
located on a US Marine Corps base in
Hawaii.
But they were forced to relocate the
ceremony when they found out Mr
Obama was scheduled to play a round
of golf at the same time.
At the new location, on the lawn of
the base commander's residence, the
couple took a phone call from Mr
Obama who congratulated them and

apologised for disrupting their special
day.
"Obama just personally called my sister
and her new husband to apologise for
foiling their wedding venue golfing.
Amazing!" said Ms Heimel's sister on
Twitter.
The phone call "totally made their
day," Becca Dryer, a friend of the bride
who attended the wedding, told the
New York Daily News.
Mr Obama has been on holiday in
Hawaii for nine days, during which he
has reportedly played golf six times.
On Christmas Eve, he played a round
with Malaysian Prime Minister Najib
Razak.

Families offered 'care' in Surabaya
AirAsia
chief
executive Tony
Fernandes said on Twitter he was
rushing to Surabaya, the city from
which the plane departed, to help.
"On behalf of AirAsia my condolences
to all. Words cannot express how sorry
I am."
Mr Fernandes said he was experiencing
an airline chief executive's "worst
nightmare".
"The passengers were on my aircraft
and I have to take responsibility for
that," he said, adding that he was
focusing on supporting the families.
"It's an experience I never dreamt of
happening and it's probably an airline
CEO's worst nightmare."
The company has released a statement
saying families of the passengers
would be offered support.
"At the present time, search and
rescue operations are still in progress
and further investigation of the debris

found at the location is still underway,"
the statement said.
"AirAsia Indonesia will be inviting
family members to Surabaya, where a
dedicated team of care providers will
be assigned to each family to ensure
that all of their needs are met.
"Counsellors, religious and spiritual
personnel have also been invited to the
family centre to provide any necessary
services."
Debris spotted 10km from plane's final
known location
Earlier in the day, an AFP photographer
on the search flight that spotted
the debris said he had seen objects
resembling a life raft, life jackets and
long orange tubes.
Air force official Agus Dwi Putranto
told reporters: "We spotted about 10
big objects and many more small
white-coloured objects which we could
not photograph."
"The position is 10 kilometres from the
location the plane was last captured by
radar," he added.
Mr Putranto displayed 10 photos
of objects resembling a plane door,
emergency slide and a square box-like
object.
"It is not really clear ... it could be the
wall of the plane or the door of the
plane," he said.
AirAsia flight QZ8501 disappeared
on Sunday morning over the Java Sea
with 162 people on board.
Australia, Malaysia and Singapore
were part of the Indonesia-led search
- comprising 15 ships and 32 aircraft
- and on Tuesday the US military sent
the USS Sampson, a guided missile
destroyer, to the area.
The search focused on waters around
the islands of Bangka and Belitung in
the Java Sea, across from Kalimantan.

Some Ways To Control High Blood Pressure Without

Medication
By making these 10 lifestyle changes, you can lower your blood pressure and reduce your risk of heart disease.
If you've been diagnosed with high

blood pressure (a systolic pressure
the top number of 140 or above
or a diastolic pressure the bottom
number of 90 or above), you might
be worried about taking medication to
bring your numbers down.
Lifestyle plays an important role in
treating your high blood pressure. If
you successfully control your blood
pressure with a healthy lifestyle, you
may avoid, delay or reduce the need
for medication.
Here are some lifestyle changes you
can make to lower your blood pressure
and keep it down.
1. Lose extra pounds and watch your
waistline
Blood pressure often increases as
weight increases. Losing just 10
pounds (4.5 kilograms) can help
reduce your blood pressure. In
general, the more weight you lose,
the lower your blood pressure.
Losing weight also makes any blood
pressure medications you're taking
more effective. You and your doctor
can determine your target weight and
the best way to achieve it.
Besides shedding pounds, you should
also keep an eye on your waistline.
Carrying too much weight around your
waist can put you at greater risk of high
blood pressure. In general:
Men are at risk if their waist
measurement is greater than 40
inches (102 centimeters, or cm).
Women are at risk if their waist
inches (89 cm).
Asian men are at risk if their waist
inches (91 cm).
Asian women are at risk if their
waist measurement is greater than
32 inches (81 cm).
2. Exercise regularly
Regular physical activity at least 30
to 60 minutes most days of the week
can lower your blood pressure by
4 to 9 millimeters of mercury (mm
Hg). And it doesn't take long to see a
difference. If you haven't been active,
increasing your exercise level can
lower your blood pressure within just
a few weeks.
If you have pre-hypertension
systolic pressure between 120 and
139 or diastolic pressure between 80
and 89 exercise can help you avoid
developing full-blown hypertension. If
you already have hypertension, regular
physical activity can bring your blood
pressure down to safer levels.
Talk to your doctor about developing
an exercise program. Your doctor can
help determine whether you need any
exercise restrictions. Even moderate
activity for 10 minutes at a time, such
as walking and light strength training,
can help.
But avoid being a "weekend warrior."
Trying to squeeze all your exercise in on

the weekends to make up for weekday
inactivity isn't a good strategy. Those
sudden bursts of activity could actually
be risky.
3. Eat a healthy diet
Eating a diet that is rich in whole grains,
fruits, vegetables and low-fat dairy
products and skimps on saturated fat
and cholesterol can lower your blood
pressure by up to 14 mm Hg. This
eating plan is known as the Dietary
Approaches to Stop Hypertension
(DASH) diet.
It isn't easy to change your eating
habits, but with these tips, you can
adopt a healthy diet:
Keep a food diary. Writing down
what you eat, even for just a week,
can shed surprising light on your
true eating habits. Monitor what
you eat, how much, when and why.
Consider boosting potassium.
Potassium can lessen the effects
of sodium on blood pressure. The
best source of potassium is food,
such as fruits and vegetables,
rather than supplements. Talk to
your doctor about the potassium
level that's best for you.
Be a smart shopper. Make a
shopping list before heading to the
supermarket to avoid picking up
junk food. Read food labels when
you shop and stick to your healthyeating plan when you're dining out,
too.
Cut yourself some slack.
Although the DASH diet is a
lifelong eating guide, it doesn't
mean you have to cut out all of
the foods you love. It's OK to treat
yourself occasionally to foods
you wouldn't find on a DASH
diet menu, such as a candy bar or
mashed potatoes with gravy.
4. Reduce sodium in your diet
Even a small reduction in the sodium in
your diet can reduce blood pressure by
2 to 8 mm Hg. The recommendations
for reducing sodium are:
Limit sodium to 2,300 milligrams (mg)
a day or less.
A lower sodium level 1,500 mg a day
or less is appropriate for people 51
years of age or older, and individuals of
any age who are African-American or
who have high blood pressure, diabetes
or chronic kidney disease.
To decrease sodium in your diet,
consider these tips:
Track how much salt is in your diet.
Keep a food diary to estimate how
much sodium is in what you eat and
drink each day.
Read food labels. If possible, choose
low-sodium alternatives of the foods
and beverages you normally buy.
Eat fewer processed foods. Potato
chips, frozen dinners, bacon and
processed lunch meats are high in
sodium.
Don't add salt. Just 1 level teaspoon of

salt has 2,300 mg of sodium. Use herbs
or spices, rather than salt, to add more
flavor to your foods.
Ease into it. If you don't feel like you
can drastically reduce the sodium in
your diet suddenly, cut back gradually.
Your palate will adjust over time.
5. Limit the amount of alcohol you
drink
Alcohol can be both good and bad for
your health. In small amounts, it can
potentially lower your blood pressure
by 2 to 4 mm Hg. But that protective
effect is lost if you drink too much
alcohol generally more than one
drink a day for women and men older
than age 65, or more than two a day
for men age 65 and younger. Also,
if you don't normally drink alcohol,
you shouldn't start drinking as a way
to lower your blood pressure. There's
more potential harm than benefit to
drinking alcohol.
If you drink more than moderate
amounts of it, alcohol can actually
raise blood pressure by several points.
It can also reduce the effectiveness of
high blood pressure medications.
Track your drinking patterns.
Along with your food diary, keep
an alcohol diary to track your true
drinking patterns. One drink equals
12 ounces (355 milliliters, or mL)
of beer, 5 ounces of wine (148 mL)
or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor
(45 mL). If you're drinking more
than the suggested amounts, cut
back.
Consider tapering off. If
you're a heavy drinker, suddenly
eliminating all alcohol can actually
trigger severe high blood pressure
for several days. So when you stop
drinking, do it with the supervision
of your doctor or taper off slowly,
over one to two weeks.
Don't binge. Binge drinking
having four or more drinks in a
row can cause large and sudden
increases in blood pressure, in
addition to other health problems.
6. Avoid tobacco products and
secondhand smoke
On top of all the other dangers of
smoking, the nicotine in tobacco
products can raise your blood pressure
by 10 mm Hg or more for up to an hour
after you smoke. Smoking throughout
the day means your blood pressure
may remain constantly high.
You should also avoid secondhand
smoke. Inhaling smoke from others
also puts you at risk of health problems,
including high blood pressure and heart
disease.
7. Cut back on caffeine
The role caffeine plays in blood
pressure is still debatable. Drinking
caffeinated beverages can temporarily
cause a spike in your blood pressure,
but it's unclear whether the effect is
temporary or long lasting.

To see if caffeine raises your blood
pressure, check your pressure within
30 minutes of drinking a cup of coffee
or another caffeinated beverage you
regularly drink. If your blood pressure
increases by five to 10 points, you
may be sensitive to the blood pressure
raising effects of caffeine.
8. Reduce your stress
Stress or anxiety can temporarily
increase blood pressure. Take some
time to think about what causes you
to feel stressed, such as work, family,
finances or illness. Once you know
what's causing your stress, consider
how you can eliminate or reduce stress.
If you can't eliminate all of your
stressors, you can at least cope with
them in a healthier way. Take breaks
for deep-breathing exercises. Get a
massage or take up yoga or meditation.
If self-help doesn't work, seek out a
professional for counseling.
9. Monitor your blood pressure at
home and make regular doctor's
appointments
If you have high blood pressure,
you may need to monitor your blood
pressure at home. Learning to selfmonitor your blood pressure with an
upper arm monitor can help motivate
you. Talk to your doctor about home
monitoring before getting started.
Regular visits to your doctor are also
likely to become a part of your normal
routine. These visits will help keep tabs
on your blood pressure.
Have a primary care doctor. People
who don't have a primary care doctor
find it harder to control their blood
pressure. If you can, visit the same
health care facility or professional for
all of your health care needs.
Visit your doctor regularly. If your
blood pressure isn't well controlled, or
if you have other medical problems,
you might need to visit your doctor
every month to review your treatment
and make adjustments. If your blood
pressure is under control, you might
need to visit your doctor only every
six to 12 months, depending on other
conditions you might have.
10. Get support from family and
friends
Supportive family and friends can
help improve your health. They
may encourage you to take care of
yourself, drive you to the doctor's
office or embark on an exercise
program with you to keep your blood
pressure low. Talk to your family and
friends about the dangers of high
blood pressure.
If you find you need support beyond
your family and friends, consider
joining a support group. This may put
you in touch with people who can give
you an emotional or morale boost and
who can offer practical tips to cope
with your condition.

Continued From Last Week

A word of caution: some children
may find toilet training discouraging
or humiliating if they have too many
accidents in underwear. So it is a
good idea for the child to have some
"successes" either in diapers or pullups before you put underwear on.
With these thoughts in mind, we are
getting closer and closer to independent
toileting. Making sure your child is both
physically and psychologically ready,
and setting the stage are two of the most
important steps in toileting success!
OK! We're ready to start toilet training!
By the time you've finished with the
preparation
(discussions,
videos,
books), purchasing the potty chair and
underwear/pull-ups, most children will
have started making some associations
between peeing/pooping and the potty.
For some it may be peeing in his/her
diaper, announcing that she needs to pee
and running to the potty after the fact.
For others, it may be actual successes on
the potty. And yet, for others it may be
the mere recognition of peeing in his/her
diaper. This is the time to start watching
your child's body signals closely.
Most children will have a tell tale stance,
facial expression ("the look"), or routine
(running to another room) when having
a bowel movement. When you notice
that your child is about to have a bowel
movement (especially helpful if there is
a particular time of day your child does
it) this is the time to say "Shall we go
sit on the potty?" If willing, take your
child to the potty. Sometimes reading
books will help your child relax while
sitting on the potty. However, this may
also end up being a "reading fest" so I
would try to limit the book reading to
only what's necessary. Additionally,
some children may want "privacy" and
helping them sit on the potty and then
leaving (letting them know that when
they are done they should let you know)
may prove the most successful.
Recognizing when your child is urinating
is a bit harder. Some children, especially
as they get older and are voiding less
frequently, will stop momentarily to
pee. Some will even squat. Frequently
watching their fluid intake is more
helpful. If your child has had a large
amount of fluid, taking him/her to the
potty 30 minutes to an hour after drinking
will maximize success, and help your
child recognize the connection between
bladder fullness and peeing.
Every child is different, and some
children will be "bowel" trained before
being "bladder" trained and vice versa.
Whichever may be first, keep in mind
that it is usually one before the other and
not both simultaneously. Additionally,
day-time dryness almost always comes
before night-time dryness and may
precede it by several months.
Now that the process has started, here are
some additional things to keep in mind:
Patience! Patience! Patience!
Toilet training is a big process. Some

experts feel that it is the first and biggest
developmental step your child will take.
The process generally takes several
weeks to several months to complete.
Two steps forward, one step back.
Don't be discouraged if you have a few
good days followed by a few bad. Again,
it's a process that's going to take time.
Also keep in mind that when your child
is tired or upset this is the most common
time for accidents or setbacks to occur.
Know when to back off
If you are pushing too hard, your child
may "push" back with more accidents
and/or resistance. Take the control out of
the issue and step back. It is ok to take a
few days or even few weeks "off" . Your
child will recognize the power struggle is
gone and relax and respond to it.
A final word: As hard as it may be to
admit or realize, toilet training is truly
in the control of your child. All you can
do is be supportive and encouraging
and set the stage for success. Keep in
mind that your child will probably be
toilet trained when she is ready, NOT
necessarily when you are ready. If you
are experiencing major difficulties, it
may be time to sit back, re-examine the
situation and ask yourself if your child
is truly ready (see article on readiness).
If you are meeting up with a lot of
resistance in a child that is ready, it is
time to examine those issues.
While most children show signs of
physical readiness to begin using the toilet
as toddlers, usually between 18 months
and 3 years of age, not all children have
the intellectual and/or psychological
readiness to be potty trained at this age.
Signs of physical readiness can include
your being able to tell when your child
is about to urinate or have a bowel
movement by his facial expressions,
posture or by what he says, staying
dry for at least 2 hours at a time, and
having regular bowel movements.
Signs of intellectual and psychological
readiness include being able to
follow simple instructions and being
cooperative, being uncomfortable with
dirty diapers and wanting them to be
changed, recognizing when he has a
full bladder or needs to have a bowel
movement, being able to tell you when
he needs to urinate or have a bowel
movement, asking to use the potty chair,
or asking to wear regular underwear.
Things to avoid when toilet training your
child, and help prevent resistance, are
beginning during a stressful time or period
of change in the family (moving, new
baby, etc.), pushing your child too fast,
and punishing mistakes (treat accidents
and mistakes lightly). Be sure to go at your
child's pace and show strong encouragement
and praise when he is successful.
Even after he begins to use the potty,
it is normal to have accidents and for
him to regress or relapse at times and
refuse to use the potty. The process of
being fully potty trained, with your
child recognizing when he has to go
to the potty, physically goes to the

bathroom and pulls down his pants,
urinates or has a bowel movement in
the potty, and dresses himself, can take
time, often up to three to six months
for most children. Having accidents or
occasionally refusing to use the potty is
normal and not considered resistance.
While it is recommended that you don't
insist that he sits on the potty and you should
be prepared to delay training if he shows
resistance, at some point if his resistance
to using the potty persists, especially after
he is 3 -3 1/2 years old, then you should
consider him resistant to potty training and
you will need to change your methods.
Early on in the training, especially if your
child is less than 3 - 3 1/2 years old, resistance
should be treated by just discontinuing
training for a few weeks or a month and
then trying again. At this age (18 months to
3 years), resistance is usually because your
child just isn't ready to begin training.
Potty training resistance usually
occurs because your child has had a
bad experience at some point during
potty training, especially if he was
started before he was intellectually or
psychologically ready. Other times,
especially with strong willed or
stubborn children, it may have nothing
to do with your technique or timing,
and you may have done nothing wrong.
Reasons for developing a resistance to
potty training can include:
being scared to sit on the potty
chair
flushing the toilet may have scared
him from wanting to sit on the
toilet
being pushed too early or fast
before he was ready severe
punishment for not using the potty
or being forced to sit on the potty
inconsistent training, especially
among different caregivers
he may have had a painful bowel
movement from being constipated. If
this is the case, treat his constipation
and wait until he is having regular,
soft bowel movements before you
begin training again.
or he may just be stubborn and
is involved in a power struggle
with his parents and is using his
control over where he has a bowel
movement
he may enjoy the negative attention
he gets from not using the potty or
from having accidents
although rare, there are medical
conditions that can make it difficult
for your child to hold in or delay
urinating or having a bowel
movement. Discuss with your
Pediatrician if there are any medical
reasons why you may be having a
hard time teaching your child to use
potty, especially if he seems to have
other delays in his development.
At this point, if your child is totally
resistant to being potty trained, then
it is best to just make him responsible
for when he wants to use the toilet.
23
This includes not punishing him for

mistakes and not reminding him to use
the potty. If he seems fearful, you can
try and discuss calmly what it is about
using the potty that scares him.
While you may get a lot of negative
feedback from friends or family
members about not being more
aggressive with getting your child
potty trained, you should be firm and
let them know that you are working on
it and remind them that not all children
potty train at the same time.
In addition, it can be helpful if you:
establish a reward or incentive for
using the potty. This should include
lots of praise and attention when he
uses the potty. It can also include a
star or reward chart on which you
child can place stickers whenever he
uses the potty. After a certain number
of days that he has stickers, then he
can get a reward, such as toy, etc.
have your child be involved in
changing himself when he wets
or soils himself. This can include
getting a new diaper, taking the
dirty diaper off, cleaning himself
(although he will probably need
help after bowel movements), and
throwing the dirty diaper away.
At some point you can change him
into regular under ware. You can talk
about it beforehand and maybe have
a ceremony where he throws away
the left over diapers or you may just
decide not to buy any new ones. Now,
when he does wet or soil himself, you
can have him help to clean out his
under ware in the sink or bathtub. You
may even have him put them in the
washing machine and wait with you
while they are getting washed and
dried. He should then dress himself.
This method is not for everyone, but
is usually very effective. You can also
have him clean up after himself if he
wet or soiled the floor.
Limit him to having BMs in
the bathroom. This isn't always
possible, but is easy if he always
asks for a diaper just to have a
bowel movement. Next, have him
sit on the potty to have a bowel
movement, even if he continues
to wear his diaper. Then work on
getting his diaper off by opening it
and eventually taking it off. During
this process, you should give lots of
praise and rewards during each step.
If he is having a hard time
learning to use the potty, but isn't
necessarily resistant to the idea,
then developing a regular daily
routine of sitting on the potty for
five or ten minutes every few hours
may be helpful.
Most importantly, avoid physical
punishment for not using the potty,
even in an older child. It can be
appropriate to verbally let him know
that you disapprove of his not using
the potty, but this should not get to the
point of yelling, shaming or nagging.

Lifestyle
The 7-Day Detox Plan

De-toxing can do more than make your
eyes sparkle and your skin glow it can
boost energy levels, improve digestion
and help shift a few unwanted kilos
too.
While it may look like a fad diet no
grains, no alcohol, no milk, no sugar
(and no fun) a detox is far from a
quick fix for weight loss. The purpose
of any detox plan is to take the load off
the organs that detoxify the body the
liver, kidneys and bowel while at the
same time supporting and improving
their performance. If you want to fast
track your health, give your body a
break, or just want to detox diet for a
short time, follow this safe and do-able
seven-day program.
Join the body+soul revolution to
take advantage of our special 14day detox. You can then choose from
one of 3 10-week programs - Weight
Loss, Strength or Vitality Boost - and
start your journey to a new you in
2015.
What to do
Check your diary and mark a week
where you have a clean break from
functions or events that might derail
your detox, such as weddings, birthdays
or special occasion meals. Some people
may experience a 'cleansing' reaction
in the first few days of detox, including
headaches or loose bowel movements.
This is due to the sudden withdrawal of
certain foods, in addition to stimulation
of detoxifying organs. These symptoms
should subside in 24 to 48 hours.
Foods to avoid
Alcohol
Cigarettes
Milk products (except cup
unsweetened
yoghurt
with
acidophilus each day)
Sugar, honey, maple syrup,
artificial sweeteners
Coffee
Grains: wheat (bread, biscuits,
cakes, pasta), rye, barley, oats,
spelt and rice
Dried fruit
Foods to enjoy
Fruit: any and all fresh fruit
Vegetables: any and all fresh
vegetables
Fish: fresh, canned in water or
olive oil
Lean red meat, chicken (without
the skin). Limit to two serves per
week.
Legumes: dried or canned, such as
kidney beans, chickpeas, lentils
Eggs: preferably organic
Olive oil (preferably extra virgin),
Coconut oil (unprocessed)
Nuts: raw unsalted almonds,
walnuts, macadamias and cashews
Seeds: raw unsalted sesame,
pumpkin and sunflower seeds
Green tea, white tea, weak black
tea (decaffeinated)
Water: from one to three litres of

water per day
Detox plan for the next seven days
1. Morning lemon juice: This is an
oldie but a goodie to kick start the
digestion and cleanse the system.
Squeeze the juice of half a lemon in a
cup of hot water. Drink first thing in the
morning before breakfast.
2. Exercise: During detox aim to
exercise for one hour daily. And not
just any exercise something that
makes you pant and puff and raise a
sweat like a spin class, jog along the
beach, walking uphill, hot yoga or
boxing. Vigorous exercise increases
lymph flow and circulation to help
sweat out toxins.
3. Raw foods: Aim to cut out the
cooking process and eat mainly
raw foods. Raw foods contain more
nutrients and enzymes. Try adding
fresh sprouts to a salad daily.
4. Detox the mind: While you're
detoxing the body, it is good to clear the
clutter from the mind too. Aim for 15
minutes of meditation per day. If you
don't know how to meditate, try belly
breathing. Start by placing hands palm
down on your lower belly. Breathe in
through your nose, counting slowly to
3 or 4 counts. Feel your tummy rise
with the breath. Breathe out just as
slowly, allowing the belly to drop. Do
this for 15 minutes daily.
5. Drink: Aim to drink three litres
of fluid daily. This will help move
the lymph and support kidney
detoxification. Choose from pure
spring water, fresh vegetable juice and
herbal detox teas. Or make your own
brew by mixing one or a combination
of Dandelion root and nettle, cleavers,
calendula, burdock and red clover. Add
one teaspoon of the dried herbs to a cup
of boiling water. Leave to steep for five
minutes, strain and drink.
6. Body brushing: Doing this daily
will support circulation and increase
skin detoxification. Using a natural
fibre body brush, brush the skin with
firm circular strokes before you step
into the shower. Start from the feet and
hands, moving up the legs and towards
the arms, avoiding the delicate area of
throat and face, and any rash or sore
spots. Then jump in the shower. Finish
your shower with a one-minute burst
cold water which brings the blood
circulation to the skin.
7. Chew: Aim to chew each mouthful of
food 10 to 12 times before swallowing.
Bringing mindfulness to mealtimes
improves digestion, allowing you to
feel a sense of fullness without a need
to overeat.
Note: Don't detox if you are pregnant,
breastfeeding, elderly, have high
blood pressure, are underweight or
against your health practitioner's
recommendation.

Lose Fat In Seven Steps

Slim down fast with these tried and
true fat burning tips.
With diet and exercise in mind, these
fit tips are designed specifically to shed
those pesky kilos.
1. Buy a skipping rope
Skipping is a high-intensity exercise
that you can do anytime, anywhere.
You only need a few minutes to give
your metabolic rate a serious jump start
that will help you burn more calories
for hours afterwards.
2. Replace all drinks with water
This includes alcohol! Hydration is an
important factor in optimal health and
weight loss. Liquid calories are also the
easiest to over-consume as they don't
fill you up. Water has zero calories and
no additives.
3. Two minute workouts
When you wake up, and when you get
home from work, do one to two minutes
of plyometric exercises such as star
jumps or burpees. Like skipping, they
max out your heart rate and boost your
metabolism in minimal time.
4. Cut the calories
Reduce calorie-dense complex carbs
and protein by replacing half your meal

with more salad and vegetables. They
are naturally low in calories and high
in fibre, so you will seriously reduce
the total number of calories you are
consuming.
5. Count your steps
Get yourself a pedometer and make
sure you take at least 10,000 steps a
day. You have to be active every day
as well as exercising - not one or the
other, both! Get up more often in the
office and go for a walk during breaks.
6. Non stop for fat loss
Turn your weights session into a fatloss super-circuit. Don't rest between
sets. Do your exercises back to back
with no rest, too, then jump on a bike
for a two-minute cardio burn. Rest
briefly, then repeat your circuit three
times.
7. Stretch out your workout
It's the end of the week so get out for
a slower but longer workout, such as a
long power walk, gentle swim or bike
ride. While intense exercise is great for
incinerating fat, long slow workouts
also have their place.
Foods Men Need To Eat

Here is a list of essential foods for good health
While many men are less conscious

about what they eat, experts say that
at times, eating healthy can mean
different things for men and women
because both sexes have their own set
of dietary requirements.
Tomatoes
Tomatoes are also known as superfoods
because of their numerous benefits.
Tomatoes contain lycopene, which,
studies say help reduce the risk of
colorectal cancer, prostate cancer, heart
disease and lower cholesterol all
common ailments in men.
Oysters
Oysters have high levels of zinc
essential for men's fertility and
sexual health. Zinc maintains healthy
testosterone levels and is excellent for
healthy sperm production. It is also
great for the hair.
Whole grains
Whole grains contain healthy levels
of vitamins, minerals and fibre. Whole
grains like oats and brown rice have
healthy amounts of B vitamins, good
for over-all well-being and they also
help alleviate depression. Studies also
say that folate can keep sperm healthy,
while biotin helps curb hair loss.
Garlic
While garlic is known for the role it
plays in protecting the heart, it is said
that men who consume garlic regularly
have lower cholesterol levels.
Salmon
Not only is salmon a great source

of protein, it is also a good source
of omega-3 fatty acids, which have
been linked to lowered levels of bad
cholesterol. They also reduce the risk
of heart disease, colorectal cancer,
prostate cancer and depression.
Blueberries
Experts say that blueberries have high
levels of proanthocyanidins, which
are linked to a reduced risk of prostate
cancer. Blueberries are also said to be
effective in reducing the risk of heart
disease, Type 2 Diabetes and agerelated memory loss.
Broccoli
Broccoli, as well as cabbage and
sprouts, contains a strong cancerfighting chemical called sulphoraphane,
which is said to reduce men's risk of
developing bladder cancer, prostate
cancer and colorectal cancer.
Eggs
Suffering from hair loss? Make sure
you include eggs in your diet. Eggs
have high sources of protein, important
for hair growth. The yolk is also a good
source of iron.
Pomegranate juice
Pomegranate juice helps lower cholesterol
levels and prevent hypertension because
it is packed with vitamins, antioxidants
and minerals. Some studies have also
suggested that having pomegranate juice
daily can slow down the progress of
prostate cancer.

Reasons Relationships Are

Not For You
There is this old saying that god has

created us all in pairs. So basically,
someone somewhere is waiting for
you. Actually, it doesn't work out
that easily if you go by statistics. The
current sex ratio is that there are 940
women for every 1000 men. That
means we are about 60 women short
technically. So, the 'pairs' philosophy
does not necessarily work. Don't worry,
relationships are not for everyone. May
be relationships are not for you.
It is not that you are not ready for
relationships. It is just that you are not
'made' for relationships. You cannot
understand why two people fall in love
and just decide to settle down. The
concept of marriage chokes you and
you think relationships are not worth it.
Relationships are so much hard work
that you just don't feel up to it.
WAYS
HOW
MARRIAGE
CHANGES YOUR LIFE
The fabled 'void' that single people
are supposed to feel after a certain age
has never bothered you and you would
much rather say that you are not ready
for a relationship as of now. Every time
one of your friends gets hooked, you
think to yourself 'another one bites the
dust'. If these are your thoughts, then
relationships are not for you.
These are signs that you are simply not
meant to be in relationships.
All your friends are either married
or have babies
That means you are already above the
marriageable age by now. If love did
not happen to you when you were
young, then it will not be able to fool
you when you are old and wise.
You prefer chocolate to sex
They say that chocolate heals
everything including a broken heart.
Some say that chocolate can even stifle
your natural libido. Who would bother
getting into a relationship when you
can just hog on chocolates.
You hate sharing food
You are already in love; but it is with
food. You are big eater and prefer
eating by yourself. So, it gets really

awkward when someone is there to

share food from your table.
You enjoy your alone time
Everybody needs their space. But you
love your 'me' time a little more than
the others. You cannot swallow the
idea of sharing your entire life with
someone.
You love dating different people
You love dating people casually. In this
way, you get to meet so many different
people and learn so many different
things. Being in a relationship with one
person is just so boring.
You love 'being' in the friend zone
It is so easy and happy to be 'friends'
with someone from the opposite sex.
Needless to say that it is so difficult and
exhausting to be in a relationship with
a person from any sex. If those are your
thoughts, then relationships are not for
you.
You have never experienced a broken
heart
You could never understand why your
friends got so tearful after a breakup
because you personally never felt
a thing other than relief after your
breakups.
You can't remember your last break
up
You were in a serious relationship some
time back but you guys broke up. Was
it 5 years back or did that happen in
college? Still thinking? You are clearly
not relationship material.
You can't recall you ex's names
People can slip up on their spouse's
name but they always remember the
name of that significant ex. It's called
the one that got away. But now that you
think about it, you cannot remember
the name of single guy or girl you
dated in the past.
You like the freedom to be dirty and
sweaty
Personal hygiene is not one of your
high points. You hate the idea of
waxing your legs every month or
shaving every week. It is much
cooler to stay single and lie in your
own filth.

Pisces Predictions 2015
The year 2015 brings many changes in

the lives of those born under the Pisces
zodiac sign. Decisions taken without
proper understanding and in haste
could hurt their finance and personal
life. Social image in society would
improve and they might win big favors
from a government agency. Their
enthusiastic and lovely nature would
boost up their confidence and would
attract the affection of their near and
dear ones.
If Pisces people come up with bright
ideas this year, they should not hesitate
to implement them. Following their
ambitions in 2015 would be good for
them. Their power of diplomacy and
goodwill would help them to climb up
the ladder of success. Communicating
with people would also be a key factor
in broadening the horizons of their
mind. All achievements, both at work
and home, would be possible only in
cooperation. Pisces born would get
ample chances to enjoy the holiday
parties and family gatherings this year
Love and Relationships
Astrologers
anticipate
that
misunderstanding and foul mouthing
might cause disharmony for married
couple, therefore, they need to live
with great understanding. It is a
better year for bachelors as marriage
is definitely in the air. The physical
appeal and uniqueness would help
Pisces individuals become the centre of
attraction for members of the opposite

sex. There might be change for some of
them as they would fall in love which
could turn out to be a happy wedding.
Those Pisces native who are in a state
of dilemma about their bonding, the
year 2015 would be the right time to
clear out all the problems. Someone
they secretly admire is likely to set their
hearts aflutter on the romantic front.
Spending time with spouse would
help the Pisces born in strengthening
their rapport. Causal connections
would become more serious this
year. Friendships would deepen and
so would the romantic relationships.
Misunderstanding and all kind of
suspicions should be cleared so that
all bonds grow stronger. Love alliance
would intensify and turn into marriage
by the end of the year 2015.
Avoid misunderstanding and jealousy
with your partner. In case you are single,
then you would have some fruitful
meetings resulting into pleasant bond
In business, there would be a change of
partnership and addition of new partners
in the form of venture for those born
under Pisces sun sign. Their contact
and network would help them see new
opportunities which would justify
their caliber this year. With effort and
attention, they would be able to learn
new skills and gain more knowledge
in 2015. However, before entering any
new partnerships or placing money on
stock exchange transaction they should
discuss with experts or elders. Sudden
decisions should be avoided.
Pisces men and women would be like
an unbeatable force in this year 2015
and though there would be oppositions,
they would easily be able to annihilate
them. Astrologers predict that working
Pisces people might receive salary
increments and their financial status
would improve tremendously. To
maintain a peaceful 2015, they should
take time out to balance their life.
Success seems to come effortlessly to
the Pisces natives now, but it is vital
to avoid a feeling of overconfidence.
Some additional perks at work are
likely to be granted. People taking
advantage would move away and Pisces
individuals would regain their rightful
place in a career or organization. Those
who have been planning since long to
buy a new house would get a chance to
own one this time.
You are advised to remain cautious
before taking up any project and
properly plan and prioritize the
requirements accordingly in order to
keep a check on expenses. You should
limit your expense and avoid taking
loans as much as possible. You are
advised to try and do your work well
and deal with different issues with

intelligence. Any new investment and
risky deal should be avoided as there
could be chances of loss
This year, the Pisces born could
consider joining a club, social or
professional, as it would benefit them.
They can expect a highly engrossing
work life with the year 2015 bringing
in ample golden opportunities. A
simple friendship developing into a
more intimate connection and reunion
with old friends are foreseen. Pisces
folks would also gain appreciation
from their family and relatives for their
success.
Don't take your anger out on your
family members. Your words reflect
your attitude so tactful use of word
would help you in handling the
situation better. Also, if you find it
difficult to give your family a lot of
time, just try to spend quality time with
them as compensation
Travel
There are many travels that Pisces men
and women may have to make this year.
Overseas journeys, predicted for some,
would bring in cheers and financial gains.
Students would get a chance to pursue
higher education away from home.
Astrologers foresee that planning for a
family trip would be a source of thrashing
away of worries. The heightened
awareness that these folks would bring
with them from their journeys would
serve them well. Pisces natives would
enjoy outdoor activities along with their
loving family members or friends.
A religious trip would help you to
devote time in spiritual tasks. Since
life seems so lovely, you should plan
a vacation to enjoy all of its spoils,
preferably with loved ones
Health
Energy levels and self-confidence
would remain high but small health
issue might affect Pisces born this year.
They would realize the effectiveness
of a balanced diet and would take the
first step towards adopting it. This
would improve the general health of
their family members too. 2015 is the
right time for Pisces to indulge in some
kind of sporting activity to boost their
physical fitness.
There is some cause for concern over the
health of an elderly friend or relative. So,
this is a good time to get in touch with
them. Similarly, precautions need to be
taken regarding the health of children.
You are advised not to indulge in too
much of work which might cause stress
and tension on the professional front.
Perfect health is likely to result if you
resolve to take workouts seriously. A
change in diet would also be helpful in
trimming extra flab.

Kassian Ready To Return From Injury, But Future
TIMES
A primary problem that undermined

the Mike Gillis era in charge of the
Vancouver Canucks was a series of
trades bets that went backwards.
The dubious Gillis acquisitions include
forward David Booth and defenceman
Keith Ballard, both of whom the
Canucks ended up buying out.
Now, new general manager Jim
Benning is taking calls and listening to
offers involving another player Gillis
brought in via trade: Zack Kassian.
Almost three years ago, at the trade
deadline in 2012, Gillis surprised
people when he sent promising young
centre Cody Hodgson to Buffalo. In
return came Kassian, whose prime
attributes were things the Canucks
needed: size and toughness. Kassian,
a year younger than Hodgson, was a
prototype power forward at 6-foot-3
and 214 pounds.
It hasnt worked out for either team.
Hodgson played well at first in Buffalo,
but this year has failed to generate
scoring. Kassian started slowly in
Vancouver, half-shellshocked by the
media glare on his new team. His
second year, the lockout season, he
didnt make much of an impact. Last
season, coach John Tortorella called
Kassian a project and it was mostly a
wipeout, even though he finished with
10 points in his last 10 games, when
the Canucks were already done.
The taciturn Benning dismissed the
promise shown in Kassians seasonending spurt. It doesnt really mean
much, the GM said on Friday, after
With Canucks In Doubt
a Canucks practice, about the value of

scoring when nothing is at stake.
Kassian returns to the Vancouver lineup
on Saturday against the visiting Detroit
Red Wings, after missing 13 games
because of a broken pinky finger, and
one game as a healthy scratch. He has
five points in 17 games this year, and
the Canucks front office has not been
impressed with his inconsistent play.
Kassian has not, Benning said,
embraced the style of a power forward.
The Canucks have taken calls from
GMs interested in a potential trade.
Benning said its a balance between
being patient with a young player
Kassian turns 24 later this month and

a deal that could help the Canucks.
With any young player, you have to
be patient with them. But having said
that, if somebody calls us and we think
we can make our team better, were
going to look at that, Benning said.
There is, he added, a fair bit of
talking going on among GMs as
teams assess where they are, and what
they need. Theres also more than just
talk. The Edmonton Oilers shipped
forward David Perron to Pittsburgh on
Friday for a first-round pick and Rod
Klinkhammer.
An X factor in Kassians worth is his
off-ice life. He has often been seen at

Vancouver bars during his time in the
city.
Teammate and mentor Brad Richardson
referred to it in mid-November.
Hes hilarious and you want to be
around him, said Richardson. But
you need to be ready for games, too.
Im not saying that was an issue, but
as you get older you learn better how
to prepare, and for a guy like him, he
needs to learn to pull it in.
Benning has little tolerance for young
men misbehaving. In his time as
assistant general manager in Boston,
he advocated for the 2013 trade of
Tyler Seguin. Benning, in a Bruins
video, said the team would miss
Seguins speed in the regular season,
but added that if they got good players
in return, they wouldnt have to worry
any more about babysitting the then21-year-old Seguin.
Seguin was moved to Dallas in a
blockbuster, seven-player deal, and
this year he leads the NHL in goals and
is second in scoring.
Kassian, meanwhile, offered mostly
clipped answers to questions from the
media scrum after practice on Friday.
Play well. Play well, he said of what
he has to do. On elements of his game
that need work: Everything.
As for trade rumours and talk about
his place and tenure with the Canucks,
Kassian had a few more words: Theres
always the other speculations, which
are pretty funny out there. Theyre
actually mind-boggling, actually.
All Eyes Will Be On Us, Says Suva Boss

Suva football president Mahen Prasad
says all teams will be out to beat
them in the new season and they will
need to maintain their dominance and
consistency.
The Whites won the National Football
League and Inter District Championship
titles in 2014 and featured strongly in
other tournaments as well.
They were also the lone Fijian district
in the Pacific Cup in Sydney.
"2015 season will surely be a tough one
for us because all other teams will be
out to beat us and end our dominance.
We just need to maintain our discipline
and remain committed. We have a great
set of officials, players and a wonderful
coach and should do well again."
"Of course there will be pressure on
us to perform. We will also be playing

in the OFC Champions League for the
first time and will need to prepare well
for that as well. Everyone knows our
pool and we will need to work hard."
Prasad also stated that they may include
some new players to strengthen their
campaign for the regional competition.
"Yes we may get some players but the
decision will be made by the coach.
He will analyse things and once he
has worked on his plans, then he will
let us know in what position he needs
players."
"Currently we have a very strong and
capable squad and we will only recruit
if there is real need."
The 2015 National Football League is
expected to commence on January 10.

Johnny Lever, A Proud

Father
Johnny Lever
Actor Johnny Lever is a proud father
after he got to know that filmmaker
Abbas-Mustan roped his daughter
Jamie for his next film soon after
watching her perform on stage.
"I feel very proud as a father when my
daughter is being recognised for her
talent and hard work," Johnny, who will

be seen in the film "Hotel Beautifool",
told the reporter.
"My daughter has studied in London
and when she came back, she wanted
to be a stand up comedian. During
one of her stage performances, AbbasMustan were so impressed by her work
that they said they want my daughter in
their next film. She will be seen with
Kapil Sharma in the film," he added.
The film which is titled "Kis Kisko
Pyaar Karu" also features Elli Avram,
Sharat Saxena, Supriya Pathak, Manoj
Joshi among others.
Meanwhile talking about "Hotel
Beautifool", he says it's a clean family
film.
"I never use double meaning dialogues
in my film. I change the script myself.
My work is to bring laughter and I am
capable of bringing the same in my
own manner," he said.
Directed by Sameer Iqbal Patel,
"Hotel Beautifool" also features Imam
Siddiqui, Alisha Farrer, Rohit Khurana,
Shanti, Jia Sharma and Brijendra Kala.
Ranveer Singh Finalised

For Ram Lakhan Remake
This is a great news to start the New Year!

We hear reports that Karan Johar is
seriously considering Ranveer Singh
to cast in his Ram Lakhan remake!
Earlier there were rumours that Karan
is upset with Ranveer for dropping out
of Shuddhi and choosing Sanjay Leela
Bhansalis Bajirao Mastani over it.
But the two seem to have cleared the air
and now the ace filmmaker is willing
to cast the Dil Dhadakne Do actor in
his upcoming project. Details about the
film havent been revealed yet, all we
know is that the movie will be directed
by Rohit Shetty.
A lot of names are being thrown around

the table for the lead roles of Ram and
Lakhan in the film. While the original
Lakhan Anil Kapoor thinks that the
remake is a bad idea, fans and industry
alike have been of the opinion that
Ranveer as Lakhan and Arjun Kapoor
as Ram will job a fantastic job in the
remake of the iconic film.
With news of Ram-Lakhan remakes
makers zeroing in on Ranveers name,
we are getting our hopes up to see the
Bajirao Mastani actor with his best
buddy Arjun Kapoor!
When Bipasha Ignored Her Ex
While on a TV show for the promotions

of her film 'Alone', Bipasha Basu was
asked to rate male actors on their
hotness quotient. She gave Anil Kapoor
7 out of 10 because of his now-famous
hairy body.
Interestingly, when she was asked to rate

her ex-flame John Abraham, the actress
asked, "Kaun?" She then played safe by
saying, "You should have asked Bachchan
Sir, 10 out of 10. That's a hot man." She
gave full marks to Hrithik Roshan, too.

Ajay Devgan To Romance Nicole Kidman In Shivay

Ajay Devgan has now become fully
involved in his next project titled Shivay,
after the release of Prabhu Devas venture
Action Jackson. Devgan had started the
recce for this film as soon as he finished
Singham 2. He had repeatedly said that
it would be a big budget film.
The budget indeed seems to be large
because now the Bollywood actor
turned director is in talks with the
Hollywood actress Nicole Kidman
who may play an important role in
the film. Though the talks have not
yet been finalized and the Days of
thunder actress has not yet signed on
the dotted lines, excitement is already
mounting because of the rumours.
The name of the film is derived from
the third word of the Sanskrit chant
Om namah Shivay. Ajay has the
word tattooed on his chest. According
to rumours the film is loosely based on
the film Shivam of Upendra in the
south. It is going to be an action film
and Devgan has confirmed that most of
the cast will be foreign and the film will
be shot in a number of international
locales. Reportedly, the action director
of Fast and the furious has been
brought on board for the project.
This is the second directorial venture

of the actor. Ajay had founded his own
production house in 2000 and its first
production was the comedy titled Raju
Chacha where Kajol played the lead
opposite Ajay. This film was followed
by U me aur hum. It was co produced
by Ajay and was his first directorial
venture. Kajol was again in the lead.
After this, Ajay ghost directed Son of
Sardar which was directed by Ashwini
Dheer. During the shooting, he formed
a close relation with Eros international
which is now interested in participating
in this big budget venture.
According to a source, "Ajay and Eros
have a great working equation since the
days of SOS, which despite clashing
with Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Jab Tak
Hai Jaan amassed nearly Rs 140 crore.
Now, they are looking forward to
working together on Shivay."
It was first speculated that Kajol
again will play the lead opposite Ajay.
However, this is not so. Instead, Ajay is
launching Sayesha the grand niece of
Saira Banu as the lead in this film.
If Kidman agrees, it will definitely
be a coup and film lovers are eagerly
waiting for the final results of the talks.
