Andrea called it her “perfect life with the perfect family.”

She lived in a five-bedroom home with a fenced backyard in a quiet residential cul-de-sac. She resided with her pre-teen daughter, young son and her fiance, Joseph.

Joseph, a personal trainer, was the family’s sole breadwinner, and this enabled Andrea to stay home and raise her kids.

There was always plenty of food in the cupboards, and the bills were always paid.

Andrea loved being a stayat-home mom. It meant she could take part in her kids’ school functions and be there to greet them when

ance nor were there any widow’s benefits available to Andrea. With no job to turn to, and too consumed with grief to look for one, Andrea could not afford the rent on their home.

She and her kids moved into her parents’ residence and, although she was grateful for their support, it was a difficult step to take.

She felt like she was burdening them.

Andrea’s ex-husband was not providing child support, and her only immediate source of income was welfare.

Andrea was a woman of pride, strength and perseverance. It was humiliating for her to accept government support, but she did what she had to for her kids’ sake.

In December of that year, Andrea and her kids moved into a place of their own – a subsidized housing Continued on A5

Get Ahead of the Winter Freeze

Winter Holiday Safety

It’s not too early to begin preparing for the heating season.

Check these 10 tips and get ahead of the winter freeze.

Winter holidays are a time for families and friends to get together. But that also means a greater risk for Âżre. Following a few simple tips will ensure a happy and Âżre-safe holiday season.

• Furnace has been inspected and serviced by a quali¿ed professional during the last 12 months. (Furnace should be serviced at least once a year.) • Chimneys and vents have been cleaned and inspected by a quali¿ed professional. Checked for creosote build-up.

(Not cleaning the chimney is the leading cause of chimney ¿res from built up creosote. This service needs to be done at least once a year.) • Wood for ¿replace or wood stove is dry, seasoned wood. • Fireplace screen is metal or heat-tempered glass, in good condition and secure in its position in front of the ¿replace. • A covered metal container ready to use to dispose cooled ashes. (The ash container should be kept at least 10 feet from the home and any nearby buildings.) • Children know to stay at least 3 feet away from the ¿replace, wood/pellet stove, oil stove or other space heaters. • Portable space heaters have an automatic shut-off. • Portable space heaters will be plugged directly into an outlet (not an extension cord) and placed at least three feet from anything that can burn; like bedding, paper, walls, and even people. (Place notes throughout your home to remind you to turn-off portable heaters when you leave a room or go to bed.) • We have tested our smoke alarms and made sure they are working. (You need a smoke alarm on every level of the home, inside each bedroom and outside each sleeping area. For the best protection, the smoke alarms should be interconnected so when one sounds, they all sound.) • Tested the carbon monoxide alarms and made sure they are working. (Carbon monoxide alarms should be located outside each sleeping area and on every level of the home.)

Holiday Decorating • Be careful with holiday decorations. Choose decorations that are Àame resistant or Àame retardant. • Keep lit candles away from decorations and other things that can burn. • Some lights are only for indoor or outdoor use, but not both. • Replace any string of lights with worn or broken cords or loose bulb connections. Connect no more than three strands of mini light sets and a maximum of 50 bulbs for screw-in bulbs. Read manufacturer’s instructions for number of LED strands to connect. • Use clips, not nails, to hang lights so the cords do not get damaged. • Keep decorations away from windows and doors.

Holiday Entertaining • Test your smoke alarms and tell guests about your home ¿re escape plan. • Keep children and pets away from lit candles. • Keep matches and lighters up high in a locked cabinet. • Stay in the kitchen when cooking on the stovetop. • Ask smokers to smoke outside. Remind smokers to keep their smoking materials with them so young children do not touch them. • Provide large, deep ashtrays for smokers. Wet cigarette butts with water before discarding.

Christmas Tree Safety • Choose a tree with fresh, green needles that do not fall off when touched. • Before placing the tree in the stand, cut 1-2� from the base of the trunk. • Make sure the tree is at least three feet away from any heat source, like ¿replaces, radiators, candles, heat vents or lights. • Make sure the tree is not blocking an exit. • Add water to the tree stand. Be sure to add water daily. • Use lights that have the label of an independent testing laboratory. Some lights are only for indoor or outdoor use. • Replace any string of lights with worn or broken cords or loose bulb connections. Connect no more than three strands of mini string sets and a maximum of 50 bulbs for screw-in bulbs. Read manufacturer’s instructions for number of LED strands to connect. • Never use lit candles to decorate the tree. • After Christmas — Get rid of the tree after Christmas or when it is dry.

Patient Testimonial

Ten years ago, I decided to have a dental implant rather than a bridge. Bridges can be hard to clean and can break down over time. I made an appointment with Dr. Lui and found the implant procedure virtually painless. My dental implant was problem free so, five years later, I had another implant placed by Dr. Lui. I have no discomfort, I can eat anything and the implants are easy to brush - just like normal teeth!

I have complete confidence in Dr. Lui. His rates are fair and I know he keeps up-to-date with the latest technology and equipment.

I highly recommend Dr. Lui to anyone considering having tooth replacement with a dental implant.

Blessings in a Backpack Program helps fill the gap for kids Vikki HOPES ABBOTSFORD NEWS

Abbotsford Food Bank executive director Dave Murray was surprised when a teacher from a local school told him there were kids in her class who were going hungry on the weekends.

She wanted to know if there was anything he could do to help.

Murray was well aware of child-poverty issues in the city – the food bank serves some 1,200 kids each month – but he didn’t realize some children were not eating much, or at all, on the weekends.

“I was surprised. Still to this day, I’m surprised,” he said.

Many of these kids are supported through school breakfast and lunch programs during the week, but their families struggle to feed them during the days off from school.

Murray had read about a program in the U.S. that was providing food-filled backpacks to help fill that gap.

He discussed the idea with the principal at the school in question, and the Blessings

in a Backpack program was launched in Abbotsford for the 2012/13 school year.

About 10 kids at the school – which is not being named, in order to protect the children’s privacy – received the backpacks during the pilot year.

The kids were identified by staff at the school, and a permis-

the week so they could be refilled.

The school’s principal said the program was a huge success in the first year.

“You could tell the parents were so grateful,” she said.

The kids were excited to see what items were in the backpack each week.

They often included

ond school has been added, also with 30 children.

The Rotary Club has donated $22,000 towards the program, including the purchase of special backpacks with the program’s and Rotary International’s logos.

Bruce Beck, director of community service for the Rotary Club of

Abbotsford is the biggest, richest agricultural area in the country, and we have children in our city who are starving.

BRUCE BECK sion letter was sent home to parents.

The packs were filled each week at the food bank with six meals – two breakfasts, two lunches and two dinners – to last the weekend.

The packs were dropped off at the school for the kids to take home each Friday.

The empty packs were then returned early in

treats – such as granola bars and pudding cups – that their parents couldn’t afford.

Blessings in a Backpack has expanded for the 2013/14 school year, thanks primarily to support from the Rotary Club of Abbotsford.

The first participating school now has 30 kids receiving the backpacks, and a sec-

Abbotsford, said the club felt moved to help.

“It was an emotional call to action for us …

Abbotsford is the biggest, richest agricultural area in the country, and we have children in our city who are starving. That’s inexcusable.

That’s intolerable,” he said.

Also on board this year is Northview Community Church,

which has provided several volunteers who shop for the food each week, fill the backpacks, drop them off at the schools, and pick up the empty packs for refilling.

Beck said it costs $525 to provide the food in the backpacks to one child for the entire school year.

The Rotary Club is challenging local businesses to sponsor one child – or more – by covering that funding.

To date, funds have been contributed by Canadian Western Bank, the employees of Quantum Properties, Manulife Securities, Farm Credit Canada, Thrifty Foods, Blackwood Home Hardware Building Centre, and Dignity Memorial Funeral Homes.

Any other businesses, groups or individuals wanting to contribute to the program can do so by calling the Abbotsford Food Bank at 604-859-5749 or visiting the site at 33914 Essendene Ave. Cheques can be made out to the Abbotsford Food Bank with “Blessings for Backpacks” on the notation line.

Mom grateful for support Initiative helps single mother’s dollars to stretch further From A1

unit that charged $529 a month for rent. Her welfare cheque was less than $900 a month.

Trying to make the funds last the month was never easy. At times, Andrea couldn’t afford to buy groceries, but she got by with trips to the Abbotsford Food Bank or she would go to her mom’s for dinner.

She was also grateful for the assistance her kids received through their schools’ breakfast and lunch programs, which ran during the week.

But the weekends could be tough, and it’s when the hunger pangs would creep in. Sometimes, the family had only a loaf of bread to eat.

At the start of the 2012/13 school year, Andrea’s son – then in Grade 1 – came home from school with a backpack filled with food. The items included cereal, fruit, granola bars, canned items and boxed pasta.

There was also a letter, explaining a new program that was being offered and asking for Andrea’s permission for her son, Jordan, to participate.

The program was called “Blessings in a Backpack.”

The idea was that participating kids would receive the food-filled backpacks every Friday so that they would have enough meals – two breakfasts, two lunches and two dinners – to last them for the weekend.

They would return the empty

backpacks early in the week, and they would be refilled for pick-up again that Friday.

But the weekends could be tough, and it’s when the hunger pangs would creep in.

Andrea was so moved at the offer that it brought tears to her eyes. She signed the form without hesitation.

Jordan was thrilled to receive his backpack each week. It was like opening a present to see what was inside. He especially liked the treats – such as granola bars, juice boxes and pudding cups – that were too expensive for his mom to buy.

Andrea found a job in June of this year, as a cook at

a local institution. She misses her kids, but she feels empowered that she is the one who supports them and she no longer requires government assistance.

She makes almost double what she did on welfare, but the $13-an-hour job means she still struggles for the essentials.

Andrea often eats her meals at work, saving the food at home for her kids.

The items from the backpack program help fill the gap over the weekends, ensuring her dollars can be stretched a little bit further.

She tears up when describing the difference it has made to her family.

“This backpack program is definitely a lifesaver. I really needed it. It really helps.”

She also hopes that her kids someday grasp the deeper message behind such forms of giving.

“I teach my kids that it doesn’t matter who you are, what colour you are, what size you are … We all need help and we need to be treated with dignity and respect.”

Laviolette sentenced to 10 years for drug case Involved day-long cross-border manhunt A Surrey man has been sentenced to 10 years in jail for his role in a cross-border drug-smuggling case that involved a 24hour manhunt for his co-accused in April of this year.

Jeffrey Laviolette, 37, previously pleaded guilty and was sentenced last Friday in U.S. District Court in Seattle, Wash. on charges of conspiracy to distribute ecstasy and possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking.

Three other charges were dismissed: aiding and abetting the possession of ecstasy, conspiracy to import ecstasy, and aiding and abetting the im-

portation of ecstasy.

QUESTION

WebTalk

OF THE WEEK Have you ever had to use a food bank?

Jubilee discussed I don’t blame the homeless people. I think the city should just find an area of land that’s not in use, clear it out, put a fence around it, and let the homeless live there. As for the homeless taking up parks, that is no good.

Geoffrey Halliday

To answer, go to abbynews.com

... Since we all seem to be in agreement with the key issues, no matter which side of the fence you sit, why don’t we come together as a collective and discuss a means to solve the problem rather than constantly try to voice our opinions?

Robert Kleisinger

LAST WEEK, WE ASKED:

Do you think it’s time for the city to clear the homeless protest camp in Jubilee Park?

How can you judge these people if you don’t know them? Hope you never fall on hard times or try something and get addicted. Do you really think people choose this life? Things happen to the best of us.

Carbon neutral scheme is sinking Tom

Fletcher

B.C. Views VICTORIA – Two days after Energy Minister Bill Bennett announced the demise of the Pacific Carbon Trust, the public accounts committee convened at the legislature to pound a few more nails into its carbon-sequestering coffin.

Assistant Auditor General Morris Sydor was there to defend his report from last March that concluded the B.C. government was not “carbon neutral” in 2010, because the trust paid $6 million for hastily arranged offset projects that were not valid.

An Encana Corp. gas flaring reduction project at Fort Nelson and a forest preserve in the Kootenays would have proceeded without assistance from $25 a tonne carbon fee imposed on hospitals, universities, colleges and until last year, school districts. In fact they did proceed without this subsidy. The government continues to deny this, but not many people outside the international carbon offset sales racket

believe them.

The Pacific Carbon Trust’s functions will continue, Bennett said. Instead of a board of directors and 18 staff, five people headed by an assistant deputy minister will evaluate projects and bestow millions taken from college, university and health authority budgets each year.

B.C.’s school districts are still paying $5 million a year to offset such nefarious activities as heating their schools. But now the money goes into a “Carbon Neutral Capital Program,” and districts have to apply to get their money back for emission-reducing projects.

This is going so well, according to Bennett, that post-secondary institutions and health authorities will be converted to a similar program in the years ahead.

How is that school program going? Here are some examples.

The Coast Mountains School District around Terrace paid $66,452 for carbon offsets last year. It got back most of its

three years of offset payments as a grant to complete a boiler upgrade for its Kitimat high school.

Abbotsford and Nanaimo school districts each have to pay about $100,000 a year. They got money back for school boiler upgrades as well, although local school officials say that would not likely have been the top priority for spending, if it hadn’t been for the program that forces districts to spend grants immediately on emission reduction.

Surrey school district paid out $585,000 last year, and also upgraded boilers. Vancouver’s pitch this year was for three electric cars.

Leaving aside the distortion of spending priorities caused by this restrictive taxand-spend scheme, what happens when they run out of boilers to upgrade? And has it occurred to the government’s “carbon neutral” braintrust that those new boilers are still burning natural gas?

This program is about to be foisted onto universities and hospitals. Does anyone actually believe that heating hospitals and

In hindsight, this... is perhaps the worst single idea implemented in 12 years of BC Liberal government

college classrooms is a key driver of global warming? Presumably our carbon czars know that 40 per cent of B.C.’s humangenerated greenhouse gas emissions are from transportation, and a few electric cars for school district staff aren’t going to change that.

And what happens when colleges and hospitals run out of boilers to modernize and insulation to upgrade? It won’t be long at this rate.

In hindsight, this “carbon neutral government” scheme is perhaps the worst single idea implemented in 12 years of B.C. Liberal government. Gordon Campbell’s grand vision of a province where government sets the green standard and the private sector economy follows has simply not worked.

The NDP presented a motion in April 2012 to relieve hospitals, colleges and universities of their carbon offset obligation.

The idea was supported by a B.C. Liberal backbencher, who argued that B.C. should also scrap the carbon tax and quit pretending it can change the climate.

His name? Bill Bennett.

PLEASE RECYCLE THIS NEWSPAPER

letters Travel between UFV campuses has been helpful to students Re: Test transit with buses first, Nov. 14 edition.

I would partially agree with this letter but I somehow don’t think the letter writer knows much of what is happening on both Chilliwack and Abbotsford UFV campuses.

There has been a shuttle in operation between the two campuses since September and recently a referendum was held to raise the fee. It passed and effective Nov. 18, a new and

expanded shuttle bus schedule took effect. We now have adequate service between the two, and while it would be nice to see a connection between Aldergrove through to Chilliwack, at least our student union has us in mind in getting this awesome service off the ground.

It will now cost us about $17 a semester from the original $6.75 at start of the school year.

This is a great price, and it

gives some of us the chance to take other courses that may be held at the other campus. For example, in the winter semester, I will be able to take four classes, of which two will be at the Chilliwack campus. This will make it easier to finish my program.

Students like the service we are provided with, but it would still be nice to have the other Valley Connector in place, too.

New halfway house named after Elliott Alex BUTLER Abbotsford News

A new 20-bed community-based residential facility for men run by the John Howard Society of the Lower Mainland opened in downtown Abbotsford last Tuesday.

About 300 people attended a ribbon-cutting ceremony for Elliott House, named for the late Mission resident, Dr. Elizabeth Elliott.

Elliott was actively involved in prisons and restorative justice for decades, founding the school of restorative justice at Simon Fraser University, and serving as a board member of the John Howard Society of the Fraser Valley.

Tim Veresh, executive director of the John Howard Society of the Lower Mainland, said naming the new facility after Elliott is a honour, as she contributed greatly to the community.

“She was an extremely remarkable person and right up until the point of her death from cancer (in 2011), she was

continuing to go into prisons and run a restorative justice group.”

The newly renovated halfway house is located at 2411 West Railway St. The facility will provide a home for men who have been released from jail and suffer mental health issues or potentially substance abuse issues. Unlike a recovery home, the men are in the house under conditions approved by the parole board of Canada, and if there is an issue with behaviour or interaction with police, the men can be returned to prison without committing an offence.

Veresh said they are hoping to have men moving into the facility

by Dec. 2.

To fund the project, the B.C. government arranged $1.3 million in long-term financing. The John Howard Society of the Lower Mainland contributed $115,075 in equity, and manages and operates the building, providing 24-hour onsite support services to residents.

The new image focuses on distracted driving.

APD releases latest road safety poster It shows a smashed cellphone beside a roadside screening device displaying the “fail” message.

At the beginning of this year, the APD made road safety its top priority as part of its strategic plan for 2013 after a year that saw nine vehicle-related fatalities and 480 crashes resulting in injuries.

MacDonald said that, socially, there is little tolerance for impaired driving, but distracted driving has not achieved the same level of social disapproval, despite both resulting in preventable collisions.

The Abbotsford Police Department has released another message aimed at educating the public and eliciting discussion on road safety.

The latest poster addresses two of the biggest issues resulting in road casualties: distracted driving and impaired driving.

“Those injuries and deaths impact individuals, families and the community as a whole,” said Const. Ian MacDonald.

The poster features the message, “Research shows that using a cellphone while driving is like driving while drunk.”

Abbotsford News Thursday, November 28, 2013

Officer receives award An Abbotsford Police officer has received the Meritorious Service award from the provincial government for his efforts in defusing a dangerous situation with a violent offender in 2012.

Const. Chris Troughton was among 82 officers receiving honours during the 33rd annual Police Honours Night held last Thursday night in Victoria.

The awards were presented by Lt.-Gov. Judith Guichon and Attorney General and Minister of Justice Susan Anton.

Troughton was acknowledged for an incident that took place May 6, 2012 in which he was the first on the scene to respond after a woman reported that her ex-boyfriend had thrown a rock through a window in her home.

Troughton found the suspect and recognized him as someone who had a violent history and a mental illness.

The man was carrying a long pole, which he began swinging, hitting Troughton’s unmarked police car several times.

Troughton pointed his gun at the man and warned him several times to drop the weapon, but the man screamed at the officer to shoot him and came towards him as he continued to swing the pole.

At one point, Troughton fell backwards but rolled to a standing position, just as the suspect swung and released the pole at his head.

The man then surrendered and was arrested without further incident.

Troughton received the Chief Constable’s Commendation from the Abbotsford Police in June 2012 for his actions in the incident.

Welcome to the driver’s seat

Driveway goes Hollywood!

Zack Spencer reveals what turned his head week with a visit to the glitzy 2013 Los Angeles Auto Show, Alexandra Straub looks at what’s cool, Bob McHugh goes green and Keith Morgan sneaks a peek at a racy compact concept. Check out the full script at drivewayBC.ca

LA-LA Land auto extravaganza LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Auto Show is full of eye-popping sights and some even include cars!

It’s not difficult to have your head turned but it is a challenge to pick one’s top picks but I’m for the challenge.

Nissan GT-R Nismo Nissan stole the show with not only one of the fastest cars in the world but the fastest man in the world. Olympic gold medalist and world record holder Usain Bolt was on hand as Nissan’s Director of Excitement. Usain was clearly taken with the new GT-R Nismo, there were also promises to get him one to replace his gold coloured GT-R. Power has been pumped up to 600hp taking this new Nismo version to 100 km/h in just two seconds.

Look for the new GT-R in the spring of 2014. I suspect Usain will get his a bit earlier.

Chevrolet Colorado The mid-size pickup truck market has been all but abandoned by the domestic automakers over the last few years leaving this category entirely to Toyota and Nissan with the Tacoma and Frontier trucks. Wait until next year and the choice will include the all-new Colorado from Chevrolet.

Building off the success of the all-new full-size Silverado, the engineers have taken the same approach to this new truck. On the economy front, eventually there will be three engines to choose from. Out of gate, there is the base 2.5L 4-cylinder engine or a 3.6L V6.

Subaru WRX Fans of the Subaru WRX will be very excited about the arrival of an all-new car but maybe a bit disappointed that this production model

doesn’t look very much little the sleek and sexy concept that was unveiled earlier this year. It should prove to be a capable car thanks to an all-new direct injection 2.0L 4-cylinder putting out 268hp and matched to the first 6-speed in the WRX. Subaru Legacy Concept A head Zack Spencer turning design that my sources tell me looks a lot like the production car.

The metallic, almost chrome looking paint, certainly helps to make the car pop but the bold front grille and macho stance could very well be included in the final version.

Lincoln MKC Lincoln has a long and distinguished history as an American premium brand but over the last few decades, it has been an extension of existing Ford products using different badging and trim. There is now a long-term plan to resurrect the Lincoln brand with all-new vehicle that use some Ford components but are developed separately from the main Ford line of products. The compact crossover MKC shares a platform with the Ford Escape but has been designed and engineered to be a very different car.

The design, other than the trademark Lincoln grille is very European and the back wrap-around hatch is maybe Audi-inspired. Standard in Canada will be all-wheel-drive and adaptive suspension, matched to a 6-speed automatic transmission.

BMW 4 Series Cabriolet BMW has changed its naming: the 3 Series is now the sedan only while the coupe and convertible version are now called 4 Series.

The all-new cabriolet is wider and features a new three-piece retractable hardtop and for the first time X-Drive AWD is now available on the convertible models.

Interior refinements include a new neck warmer to that blows a steady stream of warm air on the front passengers neck and shoulders, helping to elongate the convertible season.

Porsche Macan This small SUV is based on the same platform as the Audi Q5. This lower, sleeker and much more aggressive Macan will attract a lot of attention based purely on looks. Porsche made it very clear that this is not juts a Porsche in name but also in performance. Look for the Macan coming next year.

Jaguar F-Type Jaguar made a big splash with the Jaguar F-Type convertible this year and next year we look forward to the coupe version, a dynamite looking coupe with a stunning silhouette and improved dynamics thanks to a stiffer body. The body of the car is built with extensive use of aluminum to produce the stiffest Jaguar ever made. This is one heart-pounding coupe I cannot wait to try.

How to get noticed at the LA Auto Show ‘‘

You don’t get any faster on feet than Usain Bolt does. And if you’re paired next to Nissan’s fastest production GT-R to date, that’s an even more potent combination.

’’

Alexandra Straub

LOS ANGELES: Tinseltown. Hollywood. LA. No matter what you call it, it’s a city of millions and it’s easy to get lost in the crowd.

But not if you’re attractive, have a great body and well, you shine. With hundreds of vehicles showcased at the Los Angeles Auto Show, it takes a lot to stand out amongst the plethora of sparkling sheet metal, which is constantly detailed by show workers.

If you’re a sexy snake, that’s automatic grounds for atten-

tion. The SRT Viper GTS was on display, but it wasn’t just any old venom-producing reptile. It came with the Anodized Carbon Special Edition Package. Aside from 640 horsepower and 600 lb.-ft. of torque being produced from its handcrafted, all-aluminum 8.4-litre, mid-front V10, it comes with the first-ever use for the Chrysler Group’s unique metallic matte exterior colour.

And exclusivity is the name of its game. Only 50 will be made and they’ll be available as of January, 2014.

Speaking of fast things, you don’t get any faster on feet than Usain Bolt does. And if you’re paired next to Nissan’s fastest production GT-R to date, that’s an even more potent combination. Godzilla takes on the NISMO (aka NISsan MOtorsport) badge with a healthy helping of 600-horsepower and some defining exterior features.

In regards to its body, it’s more rigid than before and you’ll also find it has a “factory tuned” enhanced suspension.

The aero package, which not only looks good, also improves road holding, minimizes the negative impact of drag, while giving the car a menacing and muscular appearance.

If you’re a luxury German vehicle and you have a worldwide debut in LA, chances are you’ll draw quite the A-List crowd. The allnew Porsche Macan did such a thing, with visitors such as Jerry Seinfeld and professional tennis player, Maria Sharapova.

The Indonesian word for tiger, it’s the first Porsche in the compact SUV segment. Or you could say it’s the baby brother to the popular-selling Cayenne. Either way, they’re both have some spice to them!

Two renditions of Macan will be available: the Macan S and Macan Turbo. Standard features include active all-wheel drive and the Porsche double-clutch transmission (PDK). The Macan S is powered by a new Porsche-designed 3.0-litre V6 bi-turbo engine that puts out 340 horsepower. The Macan Turbo hosts a 3.6-litre V6 bi-turbo engine and emits 400 horsepower. Purrrr.

Practical and eye catching? – You might not expect that from a cargo van, but when you team up with Hot Wheels, you’ll get exactly that: hot wheels!

Ford paired up with Hot Wheels and had its Transit Connect XLT Cargo Van LWB beaming a custom bright blue exterior with orange accents and custom 20-

A real show-stopper: Nissan’s fastest production GT-R to date. inch wheels.

But the fun doesn’t stop on the outside. Sure there’s a new front fascia and grille, and even a oneoff “shark-fin” roof mounted antennas supporting GPS and Satellite radio along with custom gullwing doors (which replaces the standard sliding doors), but there’s a party waiting on the inside.

Building blocks for a future car that will drive itself

’’

Bob McHugh

LOS ANGELES: While most driving enthusiasts do not recognize the advent of a self-driving car as a good thing, drivers who have to endure crowded urban parking lots and the drudgery of stop-n-go highway commutes, on a daily basis, probably have a very different view.

The fully autonomous car may never become a reality for non-technical reasons.

Blind Spot Information System Available on 13 Ford models. Radar sensors in the rear corners monitor the spaces next to and just behind the vehicle. On the road, these sensors trigger a warning light in the mirror when there is another vehicle in the driver’s blind spot.

All of these sensor-based technologies make driving safer today and they could also be considered as building blocks for a more comprehensive automated driving system.

A Lane-Keeping system is available on 11 Ford models today. This uses a forward-facing camera to scan the road surface for lane markings. The system evaluates if the vehicle is drifting out of its lane and alerts the driver by vibrating the steering wheel. If the driver does not respond, the system provides steering torque to nudge the vehicle back toward the centre of the lane.

Adaptive cruise control and collision warning with brake support is available on 10 Ford models. The system uses radar to detect moving vehicles immediately ahead

uses ultrasonic sensors.

Using similar sensor and automated vehicle control technology, Ford engineers are also working on an advanced obstacle avoidance system. The concept vehicle detects slow-moving or stationary obstacles in the same lane ahead and warn the driver. If the driver fails to steer or brake, the system automatically brake and steer the Edge around the object.

“Democratized technology” is an expression used frequently by Ford engineers. It’s about making leading-edge technologies, which traditionally took a long time to trickle-down from expensive luxury vehicles, available on popular, affordable vehicles much sooner, or even ahead of luxury class competition.

Ford’s current Active Park Assist system is already available on 12 models.

This system automatically guides the vehicle into a parallel parking spot, while the driver controls the gas

technologies that certainly move things along in that general direction and could make it technically feasible, and perhaps production feasible on a restricted basis.

The new Ford Edge Concept revealed at Los Angeles Auto Show included two interesting automated driving technology advances that are currently under development by Ford ... self-parking and obstacle avoidance systems.

What’s different about this advanced self-park technology is that it allows an owner to do it from outside the vehicle with a push-button remote. The vehicle can be automatically positioned in or be removed from a tight parking stall situation. That certainly beats crawling in or out of the rear hatch, when there’s not enough room to get in from a side door. This new system builds on Ford’s current active park assist feature, which is restricted to parallel parking situations and

Compact concept has the look and performance of a champ LOS ANGELES – Four-time Formula One champion driver Sebastian Vettel has his fingerprints all over the Infiniti Q30 Concept on display at this city’s international auto show.

If that were literally the case, the detailing crew constantly cruising the show floor would soon remove his dabs. However, the hands-on impressions

of the Infiniti-Red Bull racer are more than skin deep, extending deep into the performance of the sporty compact.

No powerplant details have been revealed for the car that will start rolling off the production line in early 2015 at Infiniti’s first European-based plant in the northeast UK city of Sunderland. However, Vettel’s

involvement and input on performance specifications suggests this will be no slouch in takeoff and road handling. The Q30 Concept is the first model that the 26-year-old German driver has influenced from startto-finish in his role as Infiniti’s Director of Performance.

And a few words on that before we take a look at the sleek auto’s design.

My cynical colleagues have suggested publicly that Vettel’s title is no more than a marketing ploy, with Vettel filling no more than a celebrity spokesman role.

It is most certainly not the case, Just prior to my arrival for a drive with the young phenom on a French track this past spring, he had secretly put a number of Infiniti products and

work out there’s maybe a new career opp for him in the near future!

The Q30 Concept is a fusion of coupe, hatchback, and crossover body styles and, like Vettel’s racecar, there’s liberal use of carbon fibre throughout. That makes it a very light, aerodynamic and thus potentially high-performing and economical car.

Interestingly, I’m told the designers combined Italian coachwork with the Japanese art of calligraphy to create the lightweight design. Inside, cream and bronze leather features with violet bespoke tailoring, along with contrasting matte and gloss finished metalwork.

Compact concept has the look and performance of a champ LOS ANGELES – Four-time Formula One champion driver Sebastian Vettel has his fingerprints all over the Infiniti Q30 Concept on display at this city’s international auto show.

If that were literally the case, the detailing crew constantly cruising the show floor would soon remove his dabs. However, the hands-on impressions

of the Infiniti-Red Bull racer are more than skin deep, extending deep into the performance of the sporty compact.

No powerplant details have been revealed for the car that will start rolling off the production line in early 2015 at Infiniti’s first European-based plant in the northeast UK city of Sunderland. However, Vettel’s

involvement and input on performance specifications suggests this will be no slouch in takeoff and road handling. The Q30 Concept is the first model that the 26-year-old German driver has influenced from startto-finish in his role as Infiniti’s Director of Performance.

And a few words on that before we take a look at the sleek auto’s design.

My cynical colleagues have suggested publicly that Vettel’s title is no more than a marketing ploy, with Vettel filling no more than a celebrity spokesman role.

It is most certainly not the case, Just prior to my arrival for a drive with the young phenom on a French track this past spring, he had secretly put a number of Infiniti products and

In fact, one engineer told me Vettel is remarkable in the way he can do one lap and return with a complete commentary on how a car performed on every part of the track.

work out there’s maybe a new career opp for him in the near future!

The Q30 Concept is a fusion of coupe, hatchback, and crossover body styles and, like Vettel’s racecar, there’s liberal use of carbon fibre throughout. That makes it a very light, aerodynamic and thus potentially high-performing and economical car.

Interestingly, I’m told the designers combined Italian coachwork with the Japanese art of calligraphy to create the lightweight design. Inside, cream and bronze leather features with violet bespoke tailoring, along with contrasting matte and gloss finished metalwork.

2014 Volvo XC60 has arrived here in Canadanavia The new Volvo XC60 has a sleek profile with sweptback headlights and raised hood give the sport ute a smart look and you don’t have to be Swedish to enjoy it.

You have to hand it to the Europeans for their incredible automotive designs and attention to detail.

The wheels are a standard 19-inch with an option to go with 20s, which I prefer.

They really fill the wheel wells in quite nicely.

Volvo has a history of having some of the safest automobiles out there but who knew they were this comfortable? My tester, XC60 T6 AWD Platinum, came equipped with fully adjustable heated leather bucket seats; leather clad 3 spoke steering wheel, center armrest with cup holders, and a leather clad shifter knob. The back seats are 40/20/40 split folding.

I really like the use of aluminum for the inlays and the fabric that extends all the way up the B-pillars, nice touch. A high performance audio system by Volvo comes with aux and

Speaking about safety, the available technology package includes collision warning with full auto brake, cyclist detection, pedestrian detection, land departure warning, and distance alert. Pretty much anything dangerous gets in your way, this vehicle is going to tell you about it and react automatically.

Standard safety equipment includes Whiplash protection seating system, Tire pressure monitoring system, Side impact airbags, Driver and front

passenger dual threshold airbags, Side impact protection and Inflatable side curtain air bag.

Driving around the city in the XC60 not only makes you feel safe and comfortable, but there is little to no road noise inside the cab. The engine is smooth and responsive. The door seals and heavy use of sound deadening material offered a stress free driving experience. That is until I hit Vancouver’s carclogged Cambie Street. ian.harwood@drivewaybc.ca

The coolest cars ever

Rob Sass

1. 1964 Aston Martin DB5:

Some cars just ooze cool, especially those with a high price tag, sexy good looks and the “right� people driving them.

Here are four of the coolest classics of all time along with the film and music legends who drove them and pushed their cool factor over the top:

James Bond’s longstanding association with this iconic British GT began in 1964, in “Gold Finger: “007: You’ll be using this Aston Martin DB5, with modifications.� Whether you love the gadgets like the machine guns and ejector seat or you’re just a fan of its classic

Italian styling by Touring Superleggera and chrome wire wheels, the DB5 has more cool in the air of its tires than the entire first season of “Mad Men.�

2. 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder: James Dean was a budding race car driver of some talent. He ordered what was then Porsche’s fastest dual-purpose (race/street)

car available, and after wrapping “Giant,� had famed customizer Dean Jeffries paint in script on the car “Little Bastard.�

Whether that was a reference to the car itself, or a reference made to Dean by studio head Jack Warner isn’t clear. What is clear is that Dean tragically perished in the car on his way to a race in Salinas,

3. 1968 Ford Mustang GT 390: Combine a Highland Green 1968 Mustang GT 390 Fastback, Steve “The King of Cool� McQueen and “Bullitt,� which contains perhaps the greatest chase scene ever committed to celluloid -- it just doesn’t get any cooler than this.

4. 1957 Continental Mark II: The Continental MK II of 1956-57 wasn’t branded a Lincoln. Continental was a division unto itself for

The 1964 Aston Martin DB5 is considered one of the coolest cars of all time. those years, and to this day it remains America’s best attempt at building a car of Rolls-Royce or Bentley calibre. At 10 grand, it was double the cost of the average Cadillac and so much hand labor went into the car that Ford estimates they lost $1,000 on each one. The Mark II’s spot in the iconography of cool

comes from its association with the Rat Pack during its Vegas/Palm Springs glory years.

Pic of the week: The Youabian Puma If you have $1.1 million burning a hole in your jeans pocket then this could be the car for you.

The Youabian Puma has been all the talk this past week at the Los Angeles Auto Show.

The bulbous shaped, fourseat convertible is a massive 6.15 metres long, 2.24 metres wide and stands 1.8 metres tall, sitting atop a 4.15-metre wheelbase.

It’s larger than a big

Bentley Mulsanne. It rides on 20-inch chrome wheels huge 44-inch (111 cms) tires.

The Los Angeles-based manufacturer says the car was “conceptualized for those individuals who dare to be different than the ordinary.”

Power comes from a 7.0-litre V8, generating 505 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque, mated to a six-speed automatic transmission.

Drives-U-Crazy Disobeying a green light Green means go, right?

Drives me crazy when people roar off into a busy intersection, stranding innocent left turners.

It seems these impatient folks don’t know that a green light entitles you to proceed but you must not impede those who have entered the intersection legally on a green from finishing their left turn.

Trustee Korky Neufeld hands off a STTEM developed airplane structure to Trustee Stan Petersen.

Students enthused about STTEM Program Trustees and the public were recently given a close-up look at work by students in Abbotsford Middle School’s Science, Trades, Technology, Engineering and Math (STTEM) Program.

The innovative student work is guided by ‘learning by doing’ and ‘project based learning’ philosophies. The class, developed and led by teacher Mike Howe offers students an opportunity to design and build a unique product.

Students use a combination of their existing knowledge and new skills learned to develop their own finished product. Students brought examples of work to the recent Board of Education meeting including: a year book publication, models of airplanes and buildings, and a puzzle structure.

Transportation Update After just over two months of operation, the district’s revised bus operations remain busy.

With a new registration, fee schedule and payment process introduced for 2013-14, total ridership is only slightly down about 3.5% (to 2,652 student riders.) The option of using debit/credit cards for payment this year has resulted in a faster, more convenient process for parents. However, between ‘eligible’ and ‘school of choice’ riders, there are still many unpaid riders. The district recently sent out reminder registration and payment notices to encourage safe usage and full subscription of the service.

Annual Hair Design Fashion Show The district’s Career Programs presents its annual hair show tonight (Thurs., November 28) at the Abbotsford Arts Centre. Titled "Multiplicity: A Staged Hair Show of Wearable Art" it will feature the 2014 graduating class of the Hairstylist Program presenting wearable hair art on over 70 models.

Divisions unfair to UFV

From A35

In a nutshell, Cascades basketball has been banished to the kids’ table.

This was all decided upon democratically . . . kind of.

Only two universities in the junior division – Thompson Rivers and UFV – were full voting Canada West members in June. The other four schools, still on probationary status, had zero say.

This is the part where you might be saying, “Wait a minute. Haven’t the Cascades spent the last few years whuppin’ those blue bloods?”

More often than not, yes. The women’s team is a legitimate powerhouse, qualifying for the Canada West Final Four three years in a row and holding the No. 1 national ranking for two weeks last season.

The men’s team won the Canada West silver medal and finished fourth at nationals in 2012, and made the conference semifinals last spring.

UFV moved to reverse the division decision in late October, with university president Mark Evered denouncing the alignment as “tiering” in an open letter to his counterparts at Canada West schools, but the motion was defeated.

“This decision will impact . . . our ability to recruit and retain young athletes, our reputation, and our contributions to the athletic development of our region,” Evered wrote in the letter, which can be read in its entirety at abbynews.com. “To say that members of our community are angry about this is an understatement.”

UFV is currently weighing its next move – whether to appeal to the Canadian Interuniversity Sport (CIS)

UFV, furthermore, made a significant investment to join Canada West in 2006. The Envision Athletic Centre, a $6.5-million, 1,200-seat gymnasium, opened in 2007, and the school has full-time coaches for its four CIS teams (men’s and women’s soccer and basketball) on the payroll.

The proposed division names – Pioneer (for the blue bloods) and Explorer (for the newbies) – have inspired much sarcastic humour at UFV. Women’s basketball players have coined a phrase, “pioneer hunting” (or #pioneerhunting in Twitter hashtag parlance), to define their mission this season and protest their predicament for 2014-15.

Their 6-2 record includes four wins against those prestigious Pioneers.

So be warned, T-Birds.

Though you’re eager to escape, you’re squarely in the crosshairs this weekend.

parent organization immediately, or focus on ensuring the alignment doesn’t extend to 2015-16.

Folks on the other side of the (electric) fence insist the new divisions don’t amount to tiering – they merely preserve traditional rivalries while simplifying scheduling in an unwieldy 17-team league.

But: a) If this isn’t institutional snobbery, it would make sense geographically. UFV will no longer play Trinity Western, located 20 minutes down the road, nor will several teams in the same city, like Calgary/Mount Royal and Alberta/MacEwan. b) UBC has openly called for tiering since at least 2011, when university president Stephen Toope, in a press release, urged the CIS to “institute a two-tiered system.”

The Cascades aren’t in the same tax bracket as the deep-pocketed T-Birds, but that hasn’t stopped them from excelling, and to sequester UFV basketball from elite competition is asinine.

Cinderella Knights charge to silver at volleyball provincials Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

As recently as a week and a half ago, the senior boys volleyball team from Abbotsford Christian Secondary thought their season was over.

They’d lost to Credo Christian of Langley in the Fraser Valley title game, and with the region getting just one berth into the B.C. Single A championship in Duncan, they were apparently finished.

submitted photo

Eric Vaags of the Abby Christian Knights soars for a kill during Single A provincial tourney action.

But today, the Knights are proud owners of provincial silver medals, and how they came to own those baubles is quite the Cinderella

story.

On Monday, Nov. 18, Abby Christian received word that one of the teams from northern B.C. was declining its

provincial berth, freeing up a spot for the Knights.

After hustling to arrange transportation and accommodation on short notice, the team was off

to Duncan.

The Knights, unmentioned in the most recent edition of the provincial Single A rankings, had an inaus-

picious start to the tourney, losing all three of their round-robin games last Thursday. But they bounced back on Friday, Continued on A40

winning their last two preliminary games to squeak into the playoffs.

In the quarter-finals, the Knights stunned Richmond Christian, No. 3-ranked team in the province, in three straight sets (25-22, 2624, 25-22). That earned them a semifinal date with No. 2 Centennial Christian, and the Abby squad came through again, this time in five sets (22-25, 25-21, 24-26, 26-24, 15-5).

That set up a rematch with Credo Christian in the final, where the clock struck midnight on the Knights’ magical run – they fell in three sets (25-22, 25-17, 25-19).

Nevertheless, it marked the best finish at a provincial tourna-

ment in team history.

“The guys just picked the right time to peak,” Knights head coach Kit Williams marveled.

“Everyone just found their A game all at the same time, and we were able to put it together for a couple full matches.”

Senior power hitter Eric Vaags earned first team all-star honours, while Aaron Postma was a second-teamer and Sam Goertzen was an honourable mention.

“We weren’t even expecting to be there, and to get that second chance was huge,” Williams said.

“I think (the players) had the attitude that we weren’t even supposed to be there, so we might as well give our all. There was no nervousness.”

Falcons gearing up for B.C. finals Dan KINVIG Abbotsford News

Back in the fall, Luis Garcia took stock of the talent on the Abbotsford Falcons junior bantam Black football team’s roster, saw provincial championship potential, and told his players so.

They’ve proven him right all season long, and they have a chance to take the last step on Sunday when they face the South Delta Rams in the B.C. Community Football Association championship game. Kickoff is 11:30 a.m. at Langley’s McLeod Athletic Park.

“When they apply

themselves 100 per cent, they’re unstoppable,” head coach Garcia said of his squad. “I expect a good battle (against South Delta).”

The undefeated Falcons punched their ticket to the final with a dominant 68-16 road victory over the Kelowna Lions on Saturday.

Samwel Uko scored a trio of touchdowns in the win, while Tyson Reid and Sachi Peterson notched two apiece.

“We played a perfect team game,” Garcia said. “They were right on top of their game, all of them.”

Major midget squad wins two The Fraser Valley Thunderbirds major midget hockey team picked up a pair of matching 5-2 wins last weekend vs. the Vancouver North East Chiefs.

On Saturday, the Thunderbirds got goals from Austin Wellsby, Nicholas Ponak, Hayden Guilderson, Dryden Downing and Andrew Strelezki in the victory. On Sunday, Downing, Wellsby and Danny Choi notched a goal and an assist apiece.

The Thunderbirds (7-9-2) play at Abbotsford Recreation Centre on Saturday, hosting the South Island Royals at 4 p.m.

WERNER MUSCAT Andrew Phillip Jan. 5, 1961 ~ Nov. 13, 2013

It is with great sorrow that we announce the sudden passing of Andrew (Andy) Muscat age 52. Andy was born to Mary Muscat and the late Richard Muscat, January 5, 1961 in Ocean Falls, BC. Andy spent his early years in New Westminster, attending F.W. Howay Elementary School, St. Thomas More High School and later Douglas College. Andrew excelled in sports and was a natural athlete; he played lacrosse for the New Westminster Salmonbellies and won the B.C. and National Championships. He also played hockey for the New Westminster Royals.

Andy moved to Eastern Canada in 1984 to train and serve in the Canadian Military. Later he graduated from Humber College, in Toronto as a millwright and worked in the area for over a decade. He returned to Abbotsford/Vancouver BC in 2006.

Andy is survived by his mother (Mary), daughter (Lisa), and seven siblings, (Mary, Teresa, Paul, Christopher, Anne, Margaret and Joan), ten nieces/ nephews and two great nieces/ nephews.

Our family is grateful for the compassion and care that Andy received in his last hours from the wonderful ICU staff at St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital, Vancouver.

A celebration of life for Andy Phillip Muscat, will be held Sunday, December 8, 3:00 5:30 pm at Queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Park Centennial Lodge, New Westminster. Those wishing to honor Andy are invited to attend his celebration of life.
