GLOBAL CELLPHONE USERS
TOTAL 6 BILLION: REPORT
Associated Press
Anupam Nath / Associated Press
GENEVA – The world now has nearly as many cellphone subscriptions
as inhabitants.
The UN telecom agency says
there were about 6 billion subscriptions by the end of 2011 – roughly
one for 86 of every 100 people.
In a report today, the International Telecommunication Union
said China alone accounted for 1
billion subscriptions, and India is
expected to hit the 1-billion mark
this year.
The Geneva-based agency says
2.3 billion people – or about one in
three of the world’s 7 billion inhabitants – were Internet users by the
end of 2011, but there’s a strong
disparity between rich and developing countries.
ITU says 70% of people who use
the Internet live in wealthier, industrialized countries, compared with
24% who live in poorer, developing
nations.

with cold water to remove excess salt. Pat salmon dry,
de-skin and slice each side into ¼-inch slices.

POLICE SEEK SUSPECT AFTER MAN SHOT DEAD
Toronto police say a man believed to be in his 20s was shot
dead overnight in the city’s northwest.
Police say the victim was found without vital signs shortly
after midnight on the 11th floor of an apartment building
near Jane Street and Finch Avenue West. They say his back
was wounded. Police are looking for a man described as black,
roughly 6-foot-1, who was last seen wearing a grey hooded
sweatshirt.
PEANUT BUTTER ITEMS RECALLED ON SALMONELLA FEARS
OTTAWA — The Canadian Food Inspection Agency is warning
the public not to eat some products containing peanut butter
because they may be contaminated with salmonella.
The products under the brand names Harry & David,
Wolferman’s, Fairytale and Justin’s may have been sold across
Canada through Internet sales from the U.S.
The products range from flavoured peanut butter spreads
to gift baskets. The CFIA says there have been no reported
illnesses linked to eating these products.

CHINA’S MO YAN WINS
NOBEL FOR LITERATURE
STOCKHOLM, Sweden –
Chinese writer Mo Yan won
the Nobel Prize in literature today, a cause of pride
for a government that had
disowned the only previous Chinese winner of the
award, an exiled critic.
National television broke
into its newscast to announce the prize – exceptional for the tightly scripted
broadcast that usually focuses on the doings of Chinese leaders.
The Swedish Academy,
which selects the winners
of the prestigious award,
praised Mo’s “hallucinatory
realism” saying it “merges
folk tales, history and the
contemporary.”
Peter Englund, the academy’s permanent secretary,
said the academy had contacted Mo, 57, before the announcement.
“He said he was overjoyed
and scared,” Englund said.
Among the works high-
lighted by the Nobel judges
were Red Sorghum (1993),
The Garlic Ballads (1995)
and Big Breasts and Wide
Hips (2004)
“He’s written 11 novels
and let’s say a hundred short
stories,” Englund said. “If
you want to start off to get
a sense of how he is writing and also get a sense of
the moral core in what he is
writing, I would recommend
The Garlic Ballads.”
TOKYO – Toyota executives
were unfazed today by the
overnight recall of 7.43 million vehicles over faulty
power window switches
that can cause fires, calling
it a sign the Japanese company had learned from its
mistakes and was becoming
quicker and more transparent.
They said the models
affected by the biggest
single recall in Toyota Motor Corp.’s 75-year history
were all made before global
quality controls were beefed
up in 2010. The change followed a series of massive
recalls, mostly in the U.S.,
over sticky gas pedals, faulty
floor mats and defective
braking.
“We are not proud of recalls. But there is nothing
wrong with recalls per se.
Hiding anything would be
the problem,” said Shigeru
Hayakawa, a senior executive.
“We are dealing with
problems more expediently.”

STATSCAN: NEW HOUSING INDEX ROSE 0.2% IN AUGUST
OTTAWA — Statistics Canada says its new housing price index
rose 0.2% in August, after a 0.1% increase in July.
The combined metropolitan regions of Toronto and
Oshawa, as well as Calgary, were the top contributors to the
growth.
In Toronto and Oshawa, market conditions were the
primary reason for higher prices, while Calgary builders
reported that the main factors were increased material and
labour costs, as well as market conditions.
The largest monthly price advance in August occurred in
the metropolitan region of Quebec City, with prices up 0.6%,
and in London, Ont., which recorded a 0.5% increase.
In both areas the increases were primarily the result of
higher material and labour costs.
Prices declined 0.4% in Victoria and 0.1% in Charlottetown,
while they were unchanged in nine of 21 metropolitan areas
surveyed.

WOODS BEATS MACILROY, ADVANCES IN WORLD GOLF FINAL
BELEK, Turkey — Tiger Woods beat Rory McIlroy by six strokes
today to advance to the semifinals of the World Golf Final,
turning the first head-to-head match between the world’s top
two players into a one-sided contest.
McIlroy, No. 1 in the world, was eliminated from the
$5.2-million (U.S.) exhibition after slumping to a third
consecutive group match defeat on a day of low scoring at the
Antalya Golf Club.
Woods shot a seven-under 64 for a second straight victory
and was to face Justin Rose in the semifinals.
“It felt good and I really hit it good out there,” said Woods,
who won just a half-point from four matches in the U.S. team’s
loss to Europe in the Ryder Cup last month.
“My game is starting to turn around a bit and I am
beginning to hit it like I did at the start of the year.”
Rose shot a course-record 62 to beat U.S. Open champion
Webb Simpson by five strokes and also stay perfect in the
event, which has a first prize of $1.5 million.

WOMAN DIES AFTER BEAUTY TREATMENT IN HONG KONG
HONG KONG — Hong Kong authorities said one woman has
died and three others have been hospitalized after a beauty
treatment involving blood transfusions.
Hong Kong’s Hospital Authority said a 46-year-old woman
died yesterday of septic shock after receiving the treatment at
a beauty clinic. The treatment is being tested as a method to
fight cancer but in this case it was used for cosmetic purposes.
The case has raised concerns about potentially risky
medical treatments at the city’s numerous clinics offering
procedures that claim to enhance a person’s appearance.
Health Secretary Ko Wing-man promised today to review
regulations governing the clinics and other private medical
facilities. Ko said the review would look at putting private
clinics that carry out “high-risk medical treatments or
procedures under regulatory control.”
TURKEY: SYRIAN PLANE CARRIED MILITARY EQUIPMENT
ISTANBUL, Turkey — Turkish state-run television TRT reported
today that a Syrian passenger plane intercepted by Turkey’s
air force was carrying military communications equipment, as
Damascus branded the incident piracy amid growing tensions
between the two countries.
Yeni Safak, a newspaper close to the Turkish government,
reported there were 10 containers aboard the plane, some
containing radio receivers, antennas and “equipment that are
thought to be missile parts.”
Neither TRT nor the newspaper cited sources for their
reports, and Turkish officials have yet to provide details on
what was aboard the Syrian Air A320 from Moscow that was
forced to land in Ankara yesterday.

MAN PULLED FROM RUBBLE
OF MIAMI GARAGE DIES
MIAMI – A man who was
pulled early today from the
rubble of a collapsed parking garage at Miami Dade
College has died, police said,
bringing the death toll to
three. One person was still
missing, police said.
The man who died this
morning at a Miami trauma
centre had been trapped for
about 13 hours following
the collapse of the five-storey structure that was under construction at the west
Miami-Dade campus, said
Miami-Dade police spokesman Javier Baez.
Miami-Dade Police Lt.
Rosanna Cordero-Stutz said
rescue crews were saddened
to learn that the man pulled
from the rubble had died.
They had spent a good part
of yesterday communicating with him before he was
taken to the hospital early
today. Rescue workers found
B:8.37”
that man after
hearing his
T:8.37”
cries amid the
rubble.
“It’s saddening because
at the end of the day, you
know we are recovering a
deceased person, not a live
person,” she said of the ongoing recovery effort. “But
we have to give closure to
these families.”
Police identified two of
the men who died as Jose
Calderon and Carlos Hurtado de Mendoza. The man
who died at the trauma centre this morning was not yet
identified.
A news conference with
officials from the company
contracted to build the garage was planned for 11 a.m.
Another man was pulled
out alive and brought to
a hospital shortly after
the collapse, Miami-Dade
Fire-Rescue spokeswoman
Griselle Marino said.
A video shot by MiamiDade Fire-Rescue showed
four firefighters pulling him
out from under a steel beam.
He was bloody, and he was
S:8.37”
carried away on a stretcher.
At least seven workers
were brought to the hospital with unidentified injuries, while an eighth was
treated on the scene and
sent home.
There were no students in
the area because the garage
was under construction.
The campus was evacuated
and closed for the rest of the
week. Investigators planned
to pick through the rubble to
see what caused the garage
to crumble.
One worker was still unaccounted for, and authorities expected to find at least
one more body in the rubble,
said Miami-Dade Fire-Rescue Assistant Chief David
Downey.
Downey said it was highly
unlikely anyone left in the
rubble would still be alive,
and that authorities would
now focus on recovery rather than rescue.

ANCESTRY.COM: BIEBER
COUSIN OF GOSLING, LAVIGNE
SALT LAKE CITY — Call
it the Canadian dynasty of
teenybopper pop and movie
stardom.
Genealogists
at
the
website Ancestry.com say
they’ve discovered teen idol
Justin Bieber is a distant
cousin of movie star Ryan
Gosling and singer Avril
Lavigne. Their family link
dates back to some of
Quebec’s earliest settlers
400 years ago, the Utahbased company said today.
As if Bieber didn’t have
enough superstar genes,
Ancestry.com also said he’s
a distant relative of singer
Celine Dion.
“The great thing about
family history is that you
never know what you’re
going to find,” said Michelle
Ercanback, a researcher
with Ancentry.com. “It was a
very pleasant surprise.”
Ercanback
said
researchers begun tracing
Bieber’s family lineage
about a year ago by paging
through teen-idol magazines
to find biographical tidbits
from the pop star.
What they say they found
was that Bieber and Gosling
are 11th cousins once
removed, and Bieber and
Lavigne are 12th cousins.
They
share
common
relatives Mathurin Roy
and Marguerite Bire, the
researchers said. Both were
born in France in the early
1600s, married in 1637, and
moved to Quebec, where
Roy worked as a master
mason.
Avril Lavigne
Justin Bieber
The genealogists also
said Bieber and Dion are
10th cousins three times
removed because they’re
linked to French couple
Jacques Vezina and Marie
Boisdon, who were born in
the early 1600s. They moved
to Quebec, where they died
in 1687.
Ercanback said she didn’t
know if these celebrity links
are “sufficient to point to
the existence of a superstar
gene.”
In July, Ancestry.com
announced
they
had
found that U.S. President
Barack Obama could be the
descendent of an African
slave, after an examination
of his white mother’s family
history.

AFFLECK LAUDS CANADIAN HERO AT ‘ARGO’ RECEPTION
WASHINGTON — Ben Affleck lauded Canadian hero Ken
Taylor and the Canada-U.S. relationship yesterday during
a star-studded reception at the Canadian embassy on
Capitol Hill as he promoted his new film, Argo.
Any hard feelings between Taylor, Canada’s one-time
ambassador to Iran, and the creative forces behind Argo
seemed a thing of the past as Affleck spoke of Taylor’s
courage in rescuing six American diplomats during the Iran
hostage crisis in 1979.
“What this movie is about is co-operation,” Affleck said.
He also paid tribute to diplomats like Taylor who routinely
and courageously put their lives on the line to help others.

COOPER HELPS LAUNCH ROCK ACADEMY FOR TEENS
SIOUX FALLS, S.D. — To all the girls and boys, makin’ all

The heavy metal icon was in South Dakota yesterday
helping launch a 557-square metre rock and roll academy
in Sioux Falls that’ll be exclusively open to local Boys &

Cooper opened his long-dreamed Rock Teen Center
in Phoenix last week, and he says he wanted to help

Brennan’s hometown.
Brennan, who founded Dollar Loan Center, says the
centre will teach students how to sing or play guitar, bass,

From left: Colin Farrell, Sam Rockwell and Christopher Walken in a scene from Seven Psychopaths.
INTERVIEW:
By JESSE SKINNER // toromagazine.com
If you’re going to cast a movie called
Seven Psychopaths, which opens
tomorrow, Christopher Walken and
Sam Rockwell should always make
the short-list.
Both are friendly guys in real
life, but have made their careers
playing mentally unbalanced and/
or violent characters. So, perhaps
understandably, when we sat with
them at TIFF, there was a brief
moment of silence before any of
the journalists worked up the nerve
to ask a question. From there, the
conversation touched on their
eccentric screen personas, their
acting techniques and Walken’s
unusual accent.
Q. Sam, Roger Ebert called
you a latter-day Christopher
Walken. Did you take that as a
compliment?
SAM ROCKWELL: Great quote.
CHRISTOPHER WALKEN: I just
heard that!
SR: It’s a funny thing. I identify
with Chris in some ways ... but it’s a
great compliment.
CW: Sam and I did this movie, but
about a year before, we did a play
on Broadway, written by (Seven
Psychopaths
writer/director)
Martin McDonagh that went very
well. We got to know each other then.
SR: We were both child actors.
For more, check out toromagazine.com and follow us on twitter@toromagazine
Started very young, so there’s a
similarity there. We’ve both played
bad guys, and some good guys.
People have said that we’re quirky
or eccentric, but a lot of great actors
are – Malkovich, Turturro, Oldman.
When I think of Chris, I think more
of anti-heroes in movies like The
Deer Hunter or The Dead Zone.
Dark, but not so eccentric.
CW: Your movie persona
doesn’t necessarily have to do with
anything. It comes from the parts
you play. I have this theory about
movie actors: whenever you see
them, you’re not just seeing the part
they’re playing now, but everything
they’ve done before comes into the
mix. Sometimes it has nothing to do
with the person. My life is anything
but eccentric. I’ve been married 46
years. I pay all my bills. I live in a
house where the lawn is always cut.
I’m nice to my cat! ... I’ve been acting
since I was five years old. I was
raised by musical-comedy people –
gypsies. Comics. When you’re raised
by those kinds of adults, it’s almost
like you’re a foreigner. You become
strange, the “other.” And that is
seen as menacing or malevolent
in movies. Strange is dangerous. I
always thought I was a foreign actor.
When people do (an impression
of me), I always feel like they’re
making fun of my accent.
SR: Your accent is very particular.
You start with a guy who doesn’t
use punctuation, he’s got the sense
of humour of Jackie Mason, and he
does Shakespeare. Mix all those
together and you get Chris.
Q. How closely do you think
Colin Farrell’s character, Marty,
matches him? Were there more
real-life elements in the movie?
SR: Oh yeah, there’s an
autobiographical element to the
character.
CW: I remember when we did the
play, I got my upstairs neighbours,
where I live in New York, some
tickets. After, I asked them what they
thought, the woman said, “It had so
many layers!” I said to Martin, “My
neighbour said your play has layers,”
and he said, “No it doesn’t! It is what
it is – layers, what are you talking
about?” So in the movie, we’re out
in the desert, and Sam does a big
speech about how he envisions
Marty’s screenplay, and I (added), “I
like it! It’s got layers!” So that was a
rare time when he did (change the
script) based on real-life.
SR: And when your character
says, “I’d make a good pope,” that’s
something you said in rehearsal.
CW: I’ve always thought I’d make
a good pope. I don’t know why
they’ve never asked me.
Q. Chris, you’ve famously said
you’ll take any role you can, but
it seems like you’re drawn to
movies with great monologues.
CW: Certain writers – Martin,
Quentin Tarantino – write great
monologues. But not a lot of
screenwriters try it.
SR: It’s very theatrical. Not a lot of
monologues in film.
Q. Sam, you’ve played both good
guys and bad guys. Where do you
think your characters, Billy and
Hans, fit into that spectrum?
SR: A bit of both, sure. We’re not
bad guys – it’s a comedy!
CW: The violence is kind of Wile
E. Coyote versus Road Runner
violence – cartoon-y.
Q. How did you prepare for
your parts?
CW: I just learned my lines. That’s
all I ever do. I’ve never known
good actors to talk about character
motivations. Actors all talk about
the same things.
SR: Girls and food ... There is a
technique to acting, but it’s like
talking about architecture.
CW: It’s a bit like playing in
the sand, making stuff up. A good
director is like a lifeguard, sitting in
his high chair watching these crazy
kids. Every once in a while one of
them will, you know, slip or fall out
of bounds. A good director picks
them up and puts them back in.

Stevie Nicks has apologized for
threatening to kill Nicki Minaj.
The Fleetwood Mac singer issued
the shocking unprovoked verbal
attack in response to the rapper’s
recent dust-up with her fellow
American Idol judge, Mariah Carey.
“If I had been Mariah I would have
walked over to Nicki and strangled
her to death right there,” Nicks told
The Daily. “I would have killed her in
front of all those people.”
Nicks told gossip website Just
Jared, “I want to apologize for
my remarks about Nicki Minaj’s
behaviour toward Mariah Carey
which I said during a long and
exhausting day of interviews.
“It was very out of character for
me, and I deeply regret what I said.
“I feel very protective toward
Mariah Carey who has gone through
many difficulties in her life, and I
spoke without thinking. I think all
artists should be respectful toward
one another and that includes me. I
am truly sorry.”
Pictures of Prince Harry’s naked
scandal were seen by 154 million
people, and gave Las Vegas $23
million (U.S.) worth of free publicity.
The
28-year-old
royal
caused controversy when nude
photographs of him playing strip
pool with a bevy of beauties were
published online in August, but
according to a new report issued
by the Las Vegas Convention and
Visitors Authority, the incident
has given the city a major tourism
boost as the images were seen by an
estimated 154 million people.
LVCVA Board Chairman Tom
Collins told a recent board meeting,
“God bless Prince Harry. He made
us a bunch of money,” according
to gossip site TMZ. The agency is
reportedly unsure of exactly how
much the scandal boosted profits,
but officials say there is no doubt
that the scandal had a positive effect
on their economy.
Prince Harry is currently in
Afghanistan after being deployed for
a four-month stint.
RIHANNA WANTS TO TIE
THE KNOT WITH BROWN
‘MELROSE’ ACTRESS
DESCRIBED AS WASTED
Rihanna is reportedly talking about
marrying Chris Brown.
The 24-year-old singer is said
have told friends she wants to
marry the newly single R&B singer,
whom she recently reunited with
after splitting shortly before he
was convicted of assaulting her in
2009.
A source close to the songstress
told Star magazine, “No one close
to them would be a bit shocked if
they suddenly eloped. Rihanna has
told her close friends point blank – ‘I
would marry Chris.’
“She even says she would
have never left him if the media
scrutiny didn’t get so bad. They’re
passionate, and when they’re drunk,
they’ve both made many comments
about getting married.”
News that the couple could
be set to exchange vows follows
reports that Brown has given his
ex-girlfriend Karrueche Tran a
generous payout following their
split last week.
SOMERVILLE, N.J. — Testimony
continues at the aggravated
manslaughter trial of a Melrose
Place actress accused of killing a
New Jersey woman in a 2010 motor
vehicle accident.
Jurors yesterday heard from a
woman who followed Amy LocaneBovenizer for over six kilometres
after she said the actress had rearended her minivan in a minor
fender-bender.
Maureen Ruckelshaus said the
actress appeared wasted and drove
off before police could be called.
However, the defence tried to
show that Ruckelshaus may have
contributed to the deadly crash
in Somerset County. Ruckelshaus
followed Locane-Bovenizer, flashing
her lights and honking her horn.
Ruckelshaus watched as the LocaneBovenizer’s SUV struck a car pulling
into a driveway, killing the woman.
Locane-Bovenizer appeared on
13 episodes of Melrose Place in the
role of Sandy Louise Harling.

JOHNSON IN NEED OF TURNAROUND
JEFF SIMMONS
DIGITAL CONTENT EDITOR,
SPORTSNET.CA
At what point can the
Tennessee Titans continue to
trot out Chris Johnson?
The once-superstar running
back has become a shell of his
former self since signing a
mega-deal with the Titans last
off-season.
CJ2K was once considered
the next big running back star
in the NFL, but whether it’s a
lack of effort or lack of holes
generated from his offensive
line, he’s now known as
CJ401K.
Johnson has averaged less
than 2.1 yards per carry in four
of his five starts this season,
and has only eclipsed more
than 25 yards in one game.
He’s yet to score a touchdown
and break a run longer than
20 yards.
Generally running backs
decline statistically after they
receive big pay days but we
haven’t seen many drop-offs
like this, outside of Shaun
Alexander in Seattle.
Titans head coach Mike
Munchak was an offensive
lineman during his playing
career and places a high
emphasis on running the
football, something that
makes Johnson’s poor play
even more bamboozling.
Unfortunately, the Titans
don’t have many legitimate
internal options, but you can’t
pay premium dollars for a
running back to average less
than three yards per carry.
The highest-paid player on
the Titans, Johnson receives
a base salary of $8 million
(U.S.) in 2012. He needs to get
back to his level of production
or Tennessee needs to move
in a different direction.
If Johnson doesn’t start to
turn it around against the
Pittsburgh Steelers today, he
could find himself on the
bench.

FARWELL’S
411
MIKE FARWELL IS THE MORNING SPORTSCASTER ON
RODRIGUEZ NOW A LIGHTNING ROD FOR CONTROVERSY
The big question in New York today is whether or not Alex
Rodriguez should be in the Yankees’ starting lineup tonight
against Baltimore. The question arises after Raul Ibanez hit a
game-tying and then game-winning home run last night while
pinch hitting for Rodriguez. There should be no debate. Lefty Joe
Saunders starts for the Orioles tonight, and that’s simply not a
good matchup for Ibanez. And how can you ignore Rodriguez’s 647
career home runs? You can’t.
WOES IN WASHINGTON
The team with the best regular season record in baseball is on the
brink of elimination. St. Louis has Washington on the ropes, and
the cracks are showing. One player suggested that the Nats would
be up 2-0 in the series if they had Stephen Strasburg. The ace was
famously shut down for the season in September. If the Nationals
get bounced in the first round, cue the questions in Washington.
And deservedly so. @farwell590
RUSSELL MARTIN: THE CANADIAN MAJOR LEAGUER WE DON’T TALK ABOUT
GREG BRADY
OF BRADY & LANG
TUNE IN TO BRADY & LANG
WEEKDAY MORNINGS 5:30-9 ON
Lots of variables in the mix for
today’s and tonight’s MLB
playoff affairs. But what
hasn’t been documented is
the idea of two key Canadian
starters meeting in the World
Series.
Sure, we all know about
Toronto native Joey Votto.
The Reds first baseman is a
superstar in Cincinnati. He
faces a critical game today to
decide whether the Reds
season is done, or whether
they advance to the NLCS.
Though we’ve had
Canadians in the World Series
before, they’ve mostly been in
limited roles.Votto could
change that, but so could East
York native Russell Martin.
Martin has been the
starting catcher of the New
York Yankees for the last two
seasons, and he isn’t
discussed often. He spent his
first five seasons with the L.A.
Dodgers, and maybe without
frequent visits to Rogers
Centre to battle the Jays, he
slipped under the local radar.
Maybe it was going to a
small U.S. college, or that he
doesn’t get a lot of publicity
on a team with C.C. Sabathia,
Derek Jeter and Alex
Rodriguez. Either way, Martin
has played great defence in
this series, chipped in a home
run, and doubled in the third
last night, scoring the
Yankees’ only run until the
Ibanez magic. The Yankees
face a close-out game tonight
at home, and if they winm
they’d get a day off before the
ALCS – if not, they’ll play a
Game 5 tomorrow. @bradyfan590

THE CITY’S BEST
BURGERS
WORDS: ALEX GRIGORESCU
PHOTO: L. RICHARDS, BLOGTO FLICKR POOL
The best burgers in Toronto start with the essentials: a
fresh, quality beef patty and a soft bun. But from there,
the possibilities are endless. Fried eggs, an almost criminal amount of bacon, a smorgasbord of cheeses – these
burger joints go above and beyond the call of duty to
bring you more than just a sad sprig of lettuce and
squirt of ketchup. Just remember to bring your appetite – and a napkin. Here is the list of the best burgers
in Toronto.
1 BURGER’S PRIEST
2 HOLY CHUCK BURGERS
3 STOCKYARD’S SMOKEHOUSE
1636 QUEEN ST. E. (+ 1 OTHER LOCATION)
1450 YONGE ST.
699 ST. CLAIR AVE. W.
Burger’s Priest makes what you might call “holy” burgers
at both of its downtown locations. Their double cheeseburger ($7.99) is a thing of simple, straightforward
beauty, with its two patties and two slices of cheese, and
you can also make it a “What’s Right” combo ($14.99)
and add chili cheese fries, a cookie and a drink to the
mix. Then there’s the mystery of the secret menu, which
you’ll be able to view if you “like” the burger spot on
Facebook. It includes The Pope ($12.59), which has two
patties, plus “The Option” – cheese between two deepfried portobello mushrooms – crowded on to one bun.
It’s fitting that Yonge and St. Clair’s Holy Chuck is so
close to the top of this list: their emphasis is on the
highest quality freshly ground beef, and we all know
that’s the foundation of any good burger. Their signature ($9.99) is a double cheeseburger with bacon
and caramelized onions, and comes with a plea not
to add any further fanciness, and there’s the Raging
Bull ($12.99), which sees the addition of homemade
chipotle sauce and hot peppers. You also have the usual
suspects, like fries and pop, but for an added bit of intrigue, try their foie-gras poutine ($25), or any of their
specialty shakes.
You may love Stockyards for their buttermilk marinated deep-fried chicken or their spectacular barbecue
brisket sandwich, but their griddle smashed burgers
are nothing to scoff at. The classic iteration starts at $7
and comes with pickles, tomatoes and the other regulars, but once you find yourself in their rustic wood
dining room, you should almost definitely splurge on
the Double ($14) – two patties with caramelized onions, arugula and aged cheddar. All sides are $5, and include fresh-cut french fries, coleslaw or sauteed greens.
4 BIG SMOKE BURGER
5 BURGER SHOPPE / BQM
6 DANGEROUS DAN’S
220 YONGE ST. (+ MANY MORE LOCATIONS)
688 QUEEN ST. E. (+ 2 OTHER LOCATIONS)
714 QUEEN ST. E.
Big Smoke Burger has several locations across Toronto
slinging Ontario AAA patties. The prices vary by location, but generally stay within the range outlined below.
You’d be amiss not to give the Crazy Burger (jalapeno
havarti, coleslaw and chipotle mayo, $6.99) a try, and
take advantage of the option to customize any sandwich with lamb, veggie or chicken patties. The sides are
standard, the add-ons include gorgonzola and sautéed
mushrooms, and the old-fashioned shakes come in
three basic flavours, but are a nice way to ease into the
fall weather.
BQM/Burger Shoppe’s patties are a little on the small
side, but the meat is locally sourced and hormonefree, and at BQM locations you can select your cut
(chuck, brisket or sirloin). The Natural, a simple mix
of red onions, pickles and garlic aioli, will run you
$9 for chuck, $11 for brisket and $13 for sirloin, with
small fries costing you another $3. You’ll also find a
trio of blue-cheese-topped sliders, as well as meatless and tofu burgers, and some pub-worthy apps and
sides.
Dangerous Dan’s is best suited for true burger enthusiasts. The rugged Riverside exterior and no-nonsense
diner-style innards are a fitting intro to the serious
burgers you can expect. It starts with an eight-ounce
patty ($4.79 for a plain), and goes to a Big Pig (four slices of bacon, peameal, cheddar and mayo, $6.99); or you
can go off-book and top it with feta cheese (95 cents), or
a four-ounce pan-fried lobster tail ($14.95). The sides
range from fries and poutine, to deep-fried pierogies
($4.65 for seven pieces).
7 WOODY’S BURGERS
8 BURGER STOMPER
9 STAMPEDE BISON GRILL
3795 LAKE SHORE BLVD. W.
364 DANFORTH AVE.
5 BROCK AVE.
It’s worth the trip to Etobicoke for Woody’s sevenounce patties made from locally sourced, naturally
raised, hardwood-grilled beef – as well as bison and
turkey. Their beef classic starts at a very reasonable
$5.95, with free condiments – such as grilled peppers or
sautéed mushrooms and onions – and add-ons such as
gorgonzola, pulled pork and fried eggs (all $1). Or you
can spring for tried and true specialties, such as the Tokyo burger ($5.95), which is topped with pickled ginger,
wasabi mayo and sautéed onions.
Burger Stomper is a petite but sleek space on the
Danforth, where the six-ounce patties are ground fresh
daily, and the meat is never frozen AAA Ontario beef.
That’s what you’ll get on their Classic Stomp ($5.75),
with basic toppings of lettuce, tomato and ketchup,
plus cheddar for an extra $1. For more gourmet palates, try their Swiss Mushroom Melt ($7.25), with
mushrooms, swiss cheese and their secret mayo, and
don’t forget a side of double-fried fries ($3.50) or one
of their milkshakes ($4 for a small).
Don’t let the name fool you: bison is nowhere to be
found on Stampede’s menu. The beef patty at this Parkdale fixture ($4.75) is a decent size and comes dressed
with your choice of standard fixings, but you can also
add gourmet toppings such as bacon, avocado, goat
cheese or roasted peppers for a slightly more unusual
taste ($1.25). You can enjoy the burger on their covered
patio, to go, or inside their eclectically decorated space
(complete with framed X-rays).

Profit from sentiment indicators
[email protected]
Investor sentiment can
be a powerful contrarian
indicator of the market’s
future direction, particularly
when bullish or bearish
attitudes become extreme,
but it can lose some of its
predictive powers when
investor views are more
complacent, say analysts.
Two of the more popular
sentiment readings south
of the border are provided
by American Association
of Individual Investors and
Market Vane Corp.
The weekly AAII Investor
Sentiment Survey measures
the percentage of individual
investors who are bullish,
bearish and neutral about
the stock market for the next
six months.

WENDY GETS
A MAKEOVER
Among the investors
polled last week, 33.9% said
they were bullish on the
market, 32.9% were neutral
and 33.2% were bearish.
Longer-term averages, by
comparison, are 39%, 31%
and 30%, respectively.
The
percentage
of
investors who are neutral
on markets grew by 5.5
points from the previous
week, while bullish and
bearish readings dropped,
suggesting investors are
more complacent about
stocks following the summer
rally.
Market Vane’s Bullish
Consensus
indicator,
meanwhile, measures the
futures market sentiment
each day by following the
trading recommendations of
leading commodity traders.
High bullish readings are
usually a sign of market tops
while low ones often signal
market bottoms. Last week,
the Market Vane reading
hit 67%, well above its
historical average of 50.90.
Tobias Levkovich, a U.S.
equity strategist at Citigroup
Global Markets, said data
from Market Vane suggests
stock prices might be
looking at a near-term peak,
but most other sentiment
readings, including AAII,
show a different story.
“There are times when
sentiment is a superb
indicator and times when
it is not,” he said. “Thus,
tracking sentiment has its
advantages, but sometimes
it sends a muddled signal as
is the case currently.”

IMPORTS, EXPORTS FALL IN AUGUST: STATSCAN
OTTAWA – Statistics Canada says both imports and exports fell in
August, narrowing the trade deficit with the world to $1.3 billion
from $2.5 billion in July.
The agency says merchandise imports fell 3.1% to $38.8 billion,
with declines in every sector except energy products.
Exports edged down 0.1% in August to $37.5 billion as exports
of industrial goods and materials slipped and exports of energy
products increased after six consecutive monthly declines.
Imports from the United States fell 4.3% to $24.2 billion and
exports rose 1.4% to $27.6 billion, raising the trade surplus with
the U.S. to $3.5 billion from $2 billion in July.
Exports to countries other than the United States fell 3.9% to
$9.8 billion, while imports declined 1% to $14.6 billion.
B.C. ’concerned’ about answers coming out of pipeline hearings
PRINCE GEORGE, B.C. – Final hearings into the proposed
Northern Gateway pipeline project will resume today, but so far,
the province is not impressed.
B.C. Environment Minister Terry Lake issued a statement
after the hearings ended yesterday, saying his government is
“extremely concerned” about the answers it’s getting from
Enbridge.
Lake says the responses provided by company experts to
questions from B.C. government lawyers have been incomplete or
lacking in commitment.
He says the first two days of hearings showed Enbridge has not
committed to new technology that could detect very small leaks
or an automatic shut-down mechanism in the case of a possible
leak, opting instead for manual shutdown.

[4] I remember the day a couple of weeks back
when it was switched from “in a relationship”
mode, which had been the ring’s position from
the first time I noticed her. I closely watched her
eyes that day to see if I could detect any hurt or
sadness, or perhaps even relief or satisfaction,
but I couldn’t make a determination and felt
bad for her regardless. The Claddagh Ring Girl
always offers me a smile that sometimes seems
a little forced, especially Monday mornings, but
today it seems quite genuine. I respond in kind
then turn back toward the front of the line as if I
were standing on an elevator. (To Be Continued)

here it is: If a girl refuses to talk to you any more
because she says “you came on too strong,” it
really means you are too ugly, stupid, smelly or
rude to continue wasting time on. Girls never turn
down guys who are attractive for coming on too
strong. Ever. Try hitting the gym, taking a shower,
maybe some minor cosmetic surgery, etc. and
To all beautiful women on the late trains,
you’ll find it’s almost impossible to “come on too
please reconsider the pre 7 a.m. trains,
