Original Toronto Star caption: His streetcar is stalled in red tape complains owner Wesley D'Angelo as he leans against the vehicle which he wants to turn into a building (under City Hall's definition, whatever that may be) so that he can station it on a parking lot and run a boutique. But, you can't have a store in a vehicle, officials say. But they won't say how he can convert it into a building.

Dying art: Fourth-generation woodcarver Barac of North York puts a lot of work into creations such as this wooden altar. While he gets a great deal of joy out of his work, he is also saddened by the fact that his craft is drying. The native of Yugoslavia has spent 14 months carving this altar, which will sit in a church in Yorkton, Sask.
