The mood on the teachers’ picket line at LSS was upbeat Tuesday morning following news of a possible end to the strike. Results of the vote will be posted on our website at langleytimes.com when they become available.
There were smiles on the picket line at Langley Secondary School Tuesday, the morning a tentative deal to end the teachers’ strike was announced. “It’s a better day,” one teacher said. “You’re seeing a lot more smiles [this morning],” another said. The agreement was reached about 4 a.m. Tuesday in Richmond after five days of round-the-clock talks. “After all these hours, I am very pleased to announce that the parties have reached a tentative agreement,” mediator Vince Ready said. “I’m not at liberty to release any of the details, nor are the parties.” Teachers will vote on the deal today (Thursday). But if all goes well, the more than 19,000 Langley students could be back in class on Monday. “We would make every effort to be open on Monday,” said Langley School District spokesperson Ken Hoff. “CUPE and maintenance staff have worked while they have been able during the summer and if a deal is ratified then our classrooms and schools are clean and ready for students.” The Langley Board of Education held an in-camera meeting after the news of the tentative deal. The six-year contract is being called ‘historic’ and includes money to settle thousands of union grievances accumulated since the province removed class size and teacher staffing levels from the teacher contract in 2002. Premier Christy Clark said the deal includes increased funds to hire more teachers to address class size and special needs support. It is for six years, retroactive to the expiry of the earlier agreement last spring, with raises averaging just over one per cent per year. She also said the contract shouldn’t raise taxes. Education Minister Peter Fassbender said a plan is being developed to make up missed instructional days, which could involve rescheduling Christmas holidays, spring break or adding days to the end of the school year. More than 40,000 teachers have been without a contract since June 2013.

Molesting hearing in court MONIQUE TA MMING A Time s Re po rte r
DAN FER GUS ON Langley Time s
Sunday’s Terry Fox Run gets underway in Langley City, with Langley City Councillor Dave Hall giving directions. The event raised $6,000 despite the number of participants being down by almost 50 per cent, with 152 people participating. “We’re at a loss to explain the lower turnout,” said Rick Barnett, the incoming 2015 chair.
Developer offers quieter nights to neighbours CONSTRUCTIO N W O R K T O S TOP AT 7 P. M. ON MURRAYVILLE P RO JE C T D AN FERGU SO N Ti m e s Re po r t e r
The builder of a housing project in Murrayville is offering to stop construction work at 7 p.m. every night, to reduce noise. Stuart Kerr, general manager of multi-family development for Infinity Properties of Langley, made the proposal during a Monday night public hearing on the company’s plans to build 59 townhouses and a 67-unit apartment building on 6.84 acres near 220 Street and Fraser Highway. Instead of going until 10 p.m. every night, Kerr said Infinity was willing to have its crews knock off at 7 p.m. “if that would make council happy.”
Kerr was responding to concerns raised during the public hearing by area resident April Kennedy, who was worried about “noise and nuisance,” especially after suffering through the disruption created by another large construction project in the neighbourhood. Kerr also offered to make his cellphone number available to local residents to call about construction noise. However, he warned there would be a few days when crews would be pouring concrete foundations and would have work late. Currently, construction noise in the Township is governed by a 1988 bylaw which allows work between 7 a.m. and 10 p.m. every
day of the week, including Sundays and holidays. Earlier this year, the regulation was called the most lenient in the Lower Mainland by a Willoughby couple, who came to council with a petition calling for an overhaul of the noise bylaw. Erin and Randy Watkins said they’ve had four years of “constant, constant, constant noise” from housing construction underway near their 68 Avenue residence and a search of construction noise limits in other Lower Mainland communities found none as lenient as Langley. “The Township of Langley has the longest hours,” Watkins said.
A preliminary hearing took place Wednesday for Aldergrove resident Kelly Isbister, accused of molesting numerous young boys in Langley. Isbister, 41, is facing 16 charges in connection with molestation of young boys. He is charged with four counts of sexual assault, three counts of sexual interference, three counts of invitation to sexual touching, one count of possession of child pornography, two counts of trafficking in a controlled substance and three additional counts of breaching his release conditions. It is alleged he committed these offences against the boys between June of 2010 and October 2013. Initially, Isbister was arrested and released in August on $5,000 bail. However, police allege he breached his conditions three times. He has been in jail since then. In June 2013, he was also charged with trying to pervert and obstruct justice.The Times broke the story that Isbister was charged with molesting boys in January. At that time, police said there may be more victims out there in Langley who may want to come forward. Within a month, several KELLY ISB ISTER alleged victims did come forward and new charges against him were added. Isbister is also facing a new charge of sexual assault, for an offence that took place while he was in jail on June 5. He makes a brief appearance on that new charge on Sept. 22 in Surrey Provincial Court. Isbister has lived most of his life in Langley.

Firearms ‘Frankenstein’ back in court
Langley Artists Open Their Doors! Langley’s artists are once again opening their studios to warmly welcome visitors, offering a unique opportunity to peek inside the creative space of working artists.
TWO WEEKENDS
The Langley man dubbed the ‘Frankenstein of gunmaking’ was back in court facing more than 40 firearms-related charges. Bradley Friesen, 37, has remained behind bars since his arrest at a popular Osoyoos campground, where he was camping alone with his fiveyear-old son. Police on both sides of the border had their sights on Friesen since May. He is accused of converting semi-automatic guns into fully automatic guns with silencers, and shipping them all over the world.
On the morning of July 17, Friesen was arrested at his tent. His child was picked up by a relative. Numerous firearms and illegal firearms-related devices were seized from Friesen’s van at the campground. Many of the firearms found in the van were stashed underneath a booster seat in which Friesen’s young son was seated, as well as at the feet of the child’s seat. In May, officers from the Tucson office of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives called RCMP to tell them they had been investigating Friesen for selling

Langley resident and car enthusiast Keith Best “had a feeling” about his tickets when he discovered he won the $9.2 million jackpot from the Sept. 10, Lotto 6/49 draw. Best plays his own numbers and admits he chooses them based on weather temperatures at his favourite destinations and important personal dates. “I try to pick numbers logically, but these just jumped out at me,” said Best. “I first checked them at home in the paper and then went to the store to have the ticket validated. That’s when it became real.” Best says he has big plans for the prize. “First thing I will do is buy a new car and then I’m going to restore an old car. After that I plan to share with family and take off on an extended vacation.” The winning ticket was purchased at the Safeway on 200 Street in Langley. This is the second major jackpot won on tickets sold in Langley. BCLC is still waiting for an-

Burning ban still in force in Township Until there is a significant amount of rainfall in Langley Township, the ban on outdoor burning will stay. Assistant fire chief Pat Walker said record high temperatures and extremely dry weather conditions mean no burning permits will be issued. “Normally burning season runs in September and April to give residents a chance to clean up their yards and burn garden debris,” Walker said.
“However, we have experienced extremely hot and dry conditions at the end of August and on into September, meaning burning season will be delayed this year.” The light rainfall on Wednesday was not enough to improve conditions. “It won’t make a difference to the index at all,” said Walker, noting that Langley currently has a fire danger forecast of high — and it has been there for more
than six days. Normally the municipality’s rating is low by this time of year. Bonfires, yard debris burning, and outdoor cooking in anything other than CGA-approved barbecues or briquette barbecues is not allowed. The Township fire department has zero tolerance for offenders and those who disobey the ban could face fines exceeding $200.
Princess Project Society accepts donations this weekend at Willowbrook mall It may seem too early to think about, but Willowbrook Shopping Centre is hoping Langley residents will help make high school graduation fun for every student — no matter their financial situation.

fit or accessories at Willowbrook mall’s “Centre Court” by The Body Shop from 9:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, Sept. 20 or 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 21.

Items most needed are ladies’ fancy
jewellery, purses, shawls, dressy shoes, and new or gently used graduation dresses and gowns as well as men’s suits or tuxedos and dress shoes.

Published Tuesday and Thursday at 20258 Fraser Highway, Langley, B.C., V3A 4E6 by Black Press Ltd. Sales agreement No. 3298280. Contents copyright of Black Press.
It’s very good news that the B.C. government and the B.C. Teachers Federation have come to a contract agreement. If teachers vote to ratify it today (Thursday), it appears students will be back in school by Monday. Credit for the settlement rests primarily with veteran mediator Vince Ready, who was able to get two very entrenched sides to bend enough that they could come to an agreement. The BCTF and employers also deserve credit for finally getting down to brass tacks, after far too many false starts in the past several months. The agreement will not resolve the court cases over the 2002 contract stripping by the BC Liberal government, which was the underlying issue which kept the two sides far apart. That matter will go to the B.C. Court of Appeal next month, after two B.C. Supreme Court judgments that went against the provincial government. Hopefully, that matter will be settled sooner rather than later, but given the glacial pace of court proceedings and the likelihood that the Court of Apperal decision will be appealed to the Supreme Court of Canada, a final resolution on class size and composition in B.C. schools is still years away.

The world changed
ASSISTANT AD MANAGER
they
Thirteen years ago on Sept. 11, 2001, the world as we knew it changed forever. The first news reports stated “A plane has hit the World Trade Center.” The North Tower was in flames, vast billows of smoke filling the New York skyline, when suddenly out of the blue, and captured on real-time video, another jetliner slammed into the South Tower. It became instantly obvious that the United States, and subsequently the rest of the Western world, was under siege. Terrorism had finally struck into the heart and soul of North America. We were no longer protected by the vastness of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. We were not only now vulnerable, we had been attacked. From that day forward, the United States and Canada, thanks to the fear factor, have become less free and have in many ways become paranoid. Our borders are now only accessible with a passport, security questions (and acceptable answers) ubiquitous, and airport clearance times quadrupled. The documentary “9/11: Voices from the Air” presented the actual conversations of air traffic controllers, confused why their requests for responses to the crews of jetliners were going unanswered. Most chilling were the actual words of Mohamed Atta, unconsciously broadcasting over the airwaves his direction to passengers to keep calm, that they were simply “flying back to the airport” when in fact he was piloting American Airlines Flight 11 and all those innocent souls into the North Tower. Also fascinating were the conversations, after controllers realized they had not one but a number of hijackings occurring, between them and the U.S. military. By the time everyone realized what was actually happening, it was too late, at least to stop three of the aircraft from deliberately smashing into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. What brought down the fourth plane in a Pennsylvania field is anyone’s guess, though it is clear the U.S. military is denying any involvement and crediting heroes among the passengers for taking control and crashing it. The tragedy of some 3,000 lives lost, and many thousands more on battlefields, is that it is all based on the belief of religious supremacy. Had it been for something more tangible, like land or riches, it might be more understandable. But to kill thousands and millions of people simply because of a “belief” in a higher power is an abysmal travesty. In fact, it is not religion that drives those to commit terrorist acts or slaughter innocent people, but a quest for power and control of people’s lives under the guise of “purifying the world in the name of God.” We must stay commited to continue the war against terrorism and extremism. Perhaps we can at least succeed in keeping much of the Western world free from fear. We owe it to the 3,000 who died 13 years ago, and to our children, grandchildren and the future of our world. — Abbotsford News

Bullying by the ‘Unelection’ group Editor: If members of the unelected “Unelection Campaign” group are willing to misinform the public about a simple variance application, then how can anyone take them seriously on anything else? Looking for issues and attention, some members of the “Unelection Campaign” group, the anti-progress group which hopes to unseat some incumbents with other candidates in the Township November election, decided to oppose a basic setback variance application at the Sept. 8 council meeting. Even though after months of study, staff had recommended approval, this group decided to use bullying tactics and came with frivolous and baseless objections. The application requested variance to allow building of a new home on the corner of the property so that if future development comes, the house wouldn’t have to be torn down. The difference is 2.25 metres from the front and 1.5 metres from the side. The setbacks would bring the house in line with the subdivision across the street, which contains quarter acre lots with 7.5 metres (25 foot) front and 1.5 metre (five foot) side setbacks. Since this was not an application to develop nor change zones, it would easily fit in the current OCP designation of 7,000 square foot lots. The lowest density a new OCP could bring to this residential area is quarter acre lots. Some members of the Unelection Campaign went on the Leave Brookswood Alone Facebook page, where opinions become facts which lead to the wrong conclusions. One defiantly declared “….nobody asked us to be part of any planning….That is a mistake…. Those sneaky buggers.” One of their principals, Anna R. (who refuses to give her last name) threatens “Apparently Nirmal Kooner did not hear us well … he was for the new OCP.” She is trying to rile her followers. I believe it was Patrick Henry who said, “I may not agree with what you say, but I will fight to the death your right to say it.” She either doesn’t care or doesn’t understand this concept. Does this unelected, uninformed group naively think that we should get their permission before doing business with the Township? Do they think intimidation is the answer to everything? One speaker from across the street didn’t realize she was opposing the same setbacks she had on her own property, until told by staff. The rest of the speakers didn’t even live in the area. Their properties wouldn’t be affected. It was not a public hearing. Traditionally, only neighbours are supposed to air their views if their property is adversely affected. Another spoke at length about not being able to park trucks in the driveway. I don’t know if she drives a semi, but if you can’t park your vehicle on a 25-foot driveway, then most of Langley will be in trouble. In their world, even a single home is “high density,” and the person building it is a “corrupt developer.” I sincerely urge their followers to do their own research. Everything on Facebook is not true. I would have been happy to discuss their concerns over a cup of coffee, but that wouldn’t suit their “shoot first, ask questions later” style. I will still build my home. It just won’t be an efficient use of land. By the way, I have to cut a couple of dying trees for safety reasons, so don’t go crazy. NIRMAL KOONER, LANGLEY Editor’s note — Langley Township council turned down the variance application.
Striking Langley teachers spent what normally would have been the first day of school, on Tuesday, Sept. 2, picketing outside the school district office in Murrayville. Picketing may soon come to an end, with an announcement Tuesday of a tentative agreement between the B.C. Teachers Federation and the provincial government. Teachers are to vote on that agreement today (Thursday). D A N FE R GUS ON Langley Time s
Strike’s been hard on students Editor: I’m 13 and I am going into Grade 8 at D.W. Poppy for my first year of high school. I have some concerns about the teacher strike that is going on. I know both sides were trying to negotiate with each other and it was all about the raise in teachers’ pay and smaller classroom sizes. People like me and my friends care what happens to the teachers, to the government and to the other students. I’m very sorry to say it, but to me it seemed like the government and the union were only thinking about themselves, not the students. Some of the students were happy to get more of a summer but for students like me, we kind of miss school. I like learning and being a part of the school, joining clubs, and just being helpful. Sometimes during the past two weeks, I wondered if we are ever going to go back to school. We need to go back to school. Please, you all need to lower class sizes because it’s just too difficult for the teacher to try and help everyone when there are so many of us. I know from experience in my Grade 7 class at North Otter Elementary. I had 29 other classmates and nine of them needed extra help, so it slowed the rest of us down and it
was just so difficult for everyone to get the help they needed. It was especially hard for our teacher, Mrs. S. Spence. Smaller classes and extra help benefit everyone. Of course the teachers need to be paid well, because they are a big part in helping our society grow and become better people, but do they really need a big raise? I think they should get a small raise and put the rest towards helping the students. Both sides said “it’s all about the students.” Well if it is all about the student, then the negotiators needed to stop acting like children. They made this more difficult than it needed to be. This should have been done months ago. Given the tentative deal posted on Tuesday morning, I’m glad that they are starting to act more like adults. I hope that they can complete a fair deal for everyone and we can get back to school, as this has been really hard on the students, not just the teachers and government. SPRING KRISTENSEN, LANGLEY
Great care at Langley Hospital Editor: I would like to start off and say I had a bit of a problem last week and had to admit myself into Langley Memorial Hospital emergency. Right from the time I was checked in, until the time I was discharged, the class of care I got was unbelievable. All staff members, doctors, nurses, people who delivered the meals and everyone else who was in-
volved all made me feel like I was the only patient in the hospital. I would like to send out kudos to all the staff at Langley Memorial Hospital for making my stay there very memorable. Thank you. GLEN KUPSER, LANGLEY

Dredging could be ‘prohibitive’ COST TO TAXPAYERS IS BOTTOM LINE, SAYS MARTIN From Page 1
“I agree with the task force,” said acting Mayor Ted Schaffer. “I think at the end of the day, no matter how it is worded, the community wants to know what’s going on. The wording is irrelevant. “There are bright minds out there that are not affiliated with (LEPS or LFN) who could become involved. “In the end, it will be the council of the day that makes the decision. “I think it’s a damn good idea.” Following the discussion, council voted unanimously to accept James’ amended version of the proposal, asking that the information go directly to council. Although the PEAC document mentions the issue of sediment, it doesn’t specifically ask for dredging of the lagoon. That is a solution which has been put
forward by members of local environmental organizations as a way to increase the depth of the pond so that the water would take longer to heat to dangerous levels. The cost of dredging could be prohibitive, warned City CAO Francis Cheung. Depending on what solutions are settled upon, the cost to fix Brydon Lagoon could vary from a few thousand to millions of dollars, he said. “Brydon Lagoon is an important part of the community,” said Councillor Gayle Martin. “But Burnaby Lake cost $20 million to dredge.” Acknowledging that the Langley reservoir is significantly smaller than Burnaby Lake, Martin noted that to dredge it “is not going to be inexpensive. “It could get up to several million dollars. “That’s several million dollars we don’t have.
“We get these recommendations from a task force and it all makes perfect sense, but it never includes what it will cost taxpayers,” she continued. “That’s what we have to look at.” Councillor Rosemary Wallace asked whether there might be grant money available from Metro Vancouver or the province. Martin, who sits on the Metro Vancouver board, replied that there is no money available through the regional body for such projects, but added the City should look to the Ministry of Environment for funding. The Langley Field Naturalists are planning to host a walking tour around the lagoon to give both the public and City council and staff a chance to learn about the pond and the threats to its viability. No date for that outing has been announced.

Walnut Grove resident Patricia Lessard has announced she plans to run for one of the eight councillor positions on Langley Township council. She is a self-employed, single mother of two, and has been a resident of the Township of Langley since the early 1990s. Lessard is passionate about her community, and believes she has a solid understanding of the diverse community of the Township and its unique needs. Her campaign will focus on three themes: communication, sustainable development and youth and young adults. In the area of communication, Lessard has spoken to many residents who feel their ideas, concerns and opinions are not heard currently at the council table. She will work hard to ensure that council improves communication and dialogue with residents. “We need to investigate what they (the Township) are doing in that area, because it’s not really working,” she said. She suggests more use of social media to communmicate
with residents, making the Township website easier to navigate and setting up an easier way for people to email concerns to council members and Township staff. In the area of sustainable develop- PATR ICIA ment, she believes development needs to be sustainable so that Langley continues to be what she calls “an amazing place to live for everyone.” She will push for a review of all Official Community Plans to ensure that they still reflect the needs and vision of the whole community. Many were adopted years ago. She says that Brookswood and Willoughby residents are feeling that approved development plans and, in Brookswood, an OCP which was rejected by council, do not take into account concerns of people who already live there. She would like to see some of
the plans for Willoughby revisited. Youth and young adults need to remain engaged in a positive way in the community. She wants to work on developing strategies to keep them engaged, so all are LESSAR D able to reach full potential. This will mean investing in resources and opportunities, she says. Lessard has been involved in numerous community organizations, many relating to her children’s activities. These include scouting, parents’ advisory councils and the 746 Air Cadet squadron. She was chair of a scouting group committee and was a member of Rotary in the past. She has also been active with Walnut Grove Family Festival and is an instructor in Breakthrough Parenting. Lessard is hoping to fund her campaign with small donations and will be asking 1,000 people for donations of $10 each.

The hottest ticket in town 4,000 PEOPLE STOPPED BY BBQ OFF THE BY PASS ON SUNDAY The ninth annual Well Seasoned BBQ Off The Bypass drew hungry and happy crowds of around 4,000 people on Sunday at the brand new location at #11720353 64 Ave. Founder Angie Quaale, owner of Well Seasoned gourmet food store in Langley, first introduced BBQ On the Bypass in 2005 as a way to unite grilling enthusiasts in a quest for the ultimate barbeque, while also exciting the tastebuds of those who haven’t experienced a real barbecue. “We are still the only free barbecue event in B.C.,” said Quaale. Dedicated teams from across North America gather to compete in the following five categories: chicken, brisket, ribs, pork butt, and an open choice. This year, grand champions were House of Q. The House of Q won in 2008 and 2012. They took home the $5,000 in cash and prizes as well as a chance at an invitation to compete in the Jack Daniel’s World Championship in Lynchburg, Tennessee. For those with a sweet tooth, the annual Great BC Bake-Off also took place, with Gloria Szabo’s apple pie winning in fruit pies, and Dan Niemi for his Caribbean meat pie in the Anything Pie category and Yolanda Yeung for her butter tart.

Fundraiser to help abused children, animals sells out

in the realization that one of the most common components of violence is a lack of empathy. Caring for animals and plants teaches children empathy... with the hope that this will break the cycle of violence,” said SALI founder Keryn Denroche. Continued Page 15

Black tails fundraiser a sellout COMMUNITY RALLIES IN SUPPORT OF PROGRAM From Page 12
In May 2012, Badger became the group’s first rescue animal at the farm. Badger had a tough life as a baby and is now lame in both front feet with severe navicular, said Denroche. Badger has healed from his abuse and neglect and shows the children that they too have hope. More recently, Chase, an abused quarter horse, has found his forever home at SALI’s Farm. Chase was seized from a rural property in Clearwater, B.C. by the BC SPCA after numerous reports of abuse. The investigation is continuing and charges of animal cruelty are pending in the case. Chase arrived March 27. Two groups of children came out weekly to care for Chase and the other animals at the farm. The children gave Chase a high calorie/high nutrient supplement to help him gain weight. By the end of the program, Chase had gained

nearly 100 pounds and was out of danger and could be weaned off his supplements. The children could see his transformation and were very proud of their contribution to his recovery. “Chase was quickly won over by the kindness and gentleness of our children and SALI volunteers and we are all in total love with this guy,” says Denroche, executive director of SALI. “We are so thrilled that we had the opportunity to offer a safe home to Chase for the rest of his life. And Badger now has a four-legged friend that will always be by his side.” The children care for donkeys, horses, chickens, roosters, dogs, cats and nature. The children also have a garden plot for horticultural activities. Last Sunday SALI hosted its Black Tails & Boots Gala at the farm. Because of the important work the farm is doing for children and animals, the fundraiser sold out quickly.

Township For the week of September 18, 2014
Langley Township is full of wildlife habitat and people share the area with animals including bears, cougars, and coyotes. Residents throughout Langley need not be continually on alert, but action can be taken to deter wild animals if they are spotted in your area. Parents should teach children what to do if they encounter these animals, especially if they play by themselves in areas that wildlife frequent or have been seen in the past.
WARNING USE CAUTION ON ROADS
To help people coexist with creatures that are simply trying to survive but can be dangerous if provoked, the following information is offered:
Bears: are very active this time of year as they search for food to fatten up for hibernation. Bears have a keen sense of smell and garbage and other food sources could easily attract a bear to your neighbourhood. Once they get a taste of human food, bears may not want to go back to natural food sources and could lose their fear of people. A bear’s movement is mostly dictated by food availability, so if it is not available, the bear will move on. Langley has had bear sightings this year. Please do your part to prevent human/wildlife conflict and keep bears from having to be destroyed. If you encounter a bear, do not run. Act big and loud, and back away slowly to a safe place.

dangerous wildlife in the area and can be seen year round, even in residential areas. Family groups have been regularly seen around Langley. Coyotes are bold and easily lose their natural fear of people. Never feed a coyote. If you encounter a coyote, scare it off by making loud noise or throwing something at it to make it afraid. Never ignore a coyote. If it continues to approach, do not run. Maintain eye contact, pick up small pets or children, and slowly move to an area of increased activity.
In Residential Areas: Reduce the smell of food by keeping barbecues clean. Keep pet food inside. Garbage is the biggest attraction for bears so keep it secure and inaccessible to wildlife. Do not leave garbage cans out overnight: keep them in the house, a locked garage, or secured outbuilding that cannot be broken into by large, smart bears. Put them out only on the morning of collection. If you are worried about odour, keep garbage in the freezer until collection day. Do not use bird feeders, as they attract bears and the birds do not need seeds when other natural food sources are available.
In Agricultural Areas: Protect your investment by keeping fences secure and free of damage that predators can use for access. Coyotes burrow, so ensure surrounding netting goes deep into the ground. Use electric fencing to deter bears from blueberries and beehives, and pick berries and fruit as they ripen. Be vigilant with livestock and keep them secure. Farm animals are usually killed at night, so bring them inside in the evening.

be seen at any time. Cougars survive on natural food sources found in the wild, primarily deer.
Those who do not take steps to deter bears and other wild creatures can face a fine of up to $575.
Cougar attacks on humans are highly unlikely. However, if you encounter a cougar, do not run. Pick children up immediately and talk to the cougar in a confident voice. Act big by waving sticks and branches, and back away slowly while still facing the cougar. If it attacks, fight back.

Bike collection event Saturday
KNOW THE NEW RULES
Old and unused bicycles can be put to good use in other parts of the world, and Mike Kirk is helping make that happen in Langley. Bicycles for Humanity collects old and unused bikes in North America, breaks them down and sends over a container of 400 to 500 bikes to Africa. A bike is an incredibly empowering gift, as it allows doctors to see five times as many people in a day, gets kids to schools that couldn’t otherwise get there, carries a lot more weight and in turn helps people get to market, trade with one another and do other tasks. The organization’s website is http://www.bicycles-for-humanity.org. Anyone wanting information about the local event can email mike@bicycles-for-humanity.org. The event takes place from 1 to 5 p.m. at 21562 Old Yale Road, Langley, at the corner of 216 Street and 48 Avenue, across the street from Porters. There will be a barbecue as well, by donation.

Your gums may be a bit red, but you may not notice anything. As gingivitis gets more serious, tiny pockets of infection form. Your gums may be puffy and may bleed a little when you brush, but it is not painful. Over time, the infection destroys the gum tissue. Eventually, you may be at risk of losing one or more teeth.
EXPERT RECYCLING
Gum disease begins when plaque adheres at and below the visible edge of your gums. If plaque is not removed every day by brushing and flossing, it hardens into tartar (also called calculus). Tartar promotes a bacterial infection at the point of attachment. In these early stages, gum disease is called gingivitis.

A: No, that’s not true. Even with these abnormally low gas prices it is still cheaper to run your heat pump down to at least 5° C, then – depending on how efficient your heat pump versus your furnace is – it could be cheaper to run your heat pump down as low as -2° C. When you get your annual tune up you should ask your serviceman to set the cut off appropriately.

Millions of small acts. One big win for our environment. By Scott Fraser President & CEO of Encorp Pacific (Canada)
The success of our system for recycling beverage containers proves that millions of small acts can add up to a big win for the environment. Whether it’s aluminum cans, juice boxes, cartons, or glass and plastic bottles, if you are a typical BC resident, you probably generate four or ¿ve empty beverage containers a week. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but do the math and it adds up to hundreds of millions of empty beverage containers a year that would end up in the land¿ll, if British Columbians like you hadn’t returned those containers for recycling. In fact, last year almost 1 billion used beverage containers were returned for deposit and processed into new products. That includes more than 360 million aluminum cans, 338 million plastic bottles, 195 million glass bottles and 71 million drink boxes and cartons. In total nearly 100,000 metric tons of material was kept out of BC’s land¿lls. If you ¿nd it hard to imagine what that means, then consider that it is the equivalent weight of 60,000 midsized cars. That’s right, the equivalent of 60,000 cars was removed from BC’s land¿lls, a few cans, bottles and cartons at a time. But that’s not the only bene¿t for BC. Recycling empty containers uses less energy than producing new ones.
The equivalent of 60,000 cars was removed from BC’s landfills, a few cans, bottles and cartons at a time. For example, used aluminum cans are turned into new cans, a process that uses only 5% of the energy it takes to make new aluminum. Drink boxes and cartons are pulped and made into tissue and cardboard, saving 17 trees for every ton of paper ¿ber produced. Plastic bottles are 100 percent recyclable for use in new plastic containers, and glass bottles are made into new bottles and sandblasting material. As a result, the recycling of beverage containers contributed to a reduction of 135,000 tons of carbon dioxide that otherwise would have gone into BC’s atmosphere. Keeping with the driving theme, that’s the equivalent of taking 39,000 cars off the road in BC every year. BC has one of the highest beverage container recycling rates in North America – last year 80
Nearly 100,000 metric tons of material was kept out of BC’s landfills. percent of all beverage containers sold in BC were returned and recycled. One reason for the high recovery rate is the many options that British Columbians have for returning their containers. The Return-It™ network of over 170 depots across the province is the heart of the system, collecting over 90 percent of recycled containers. Their share of returns continues to grow, in part because today’s depots are consumer friendly, clean, bright and open with large sorting tables. It is also because today many depots accept a wide range of products for recycling, making them a convenient one-stop location for your recycling needs. For example, over 90 percent of Return-It Depots accept consumer electronics, like computers, TVs and printers, for recycling. Many also accept small appliances, paint, light bulbs and more. For hotels, of¿ces, restaurants and multi-family buildings, many Return-It Depots and specialized mobile collectors offer a pick-up program, primarily in the Metro Vancouver area. If you live in a townhouse, condominium or apartment, look for the Encorp or Return-It branded collection bins in the garbage or recycling area of your building. ADVERTORIAL
For recycling ‘on the go’, you may have noticed blue beverage container bins in various neighbourhoods in the City of Vancouver. These bins are non-locking and designed to be self-serviced by residents or people wanting to receive the deposit refund attached to the containers deposited in the bins. This successful program is now expanding to other Metro Vancouver areas and to towns around BC. Even with this extensive system, though, BC would not have one of the highest recycling rates in North America without consumers making the decision to do the right thing for the environment. That amounts to almost 3 million containers a day diverted from land¿lls to be made into new products – a lot of small acts adding up to a lot of good for BC.

GVHBA Fall Renovation Show kicks off on October 4 By Kerry Vital
If renovations are on your to-do list, you can’t miss the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association Fall Home Renovation Show on Saturday Oct. 4 and Sunday Oct. 5 at the Hard Rock Casino Vancouver Theatre in Coquitlam. Presented in partnership with the Better Business Bureau, the free show will focus on professional renovation information
and education. The collaboration between the GVHBA and BBB aims to bring homeowners the largest one-stop source of Vancouver’s top professional builders and renovators. The show is completely devoted to renovations, and the Ask a Pro booth will be onsite and providing complimentary 30-minute oneon-one consultations to homeowners looking for assistance. Free 20-minute seminars are also scheduled throughout the show, covering topics such as Kitchen Design Trends,
NEW HOME DEVELOPMENT
Renovating versus New Build and Designing for Small Spaces. A list of seminar topics and schedules will be posted online. “Advanced planning and working with experienced professionals will be your best protection,” says GVHBA CEO Bob de Wit. “Considering you are renovating one of your greatest investments, your home, it makes sense to only work with the pros.” De Wit notes that Metro Vancouver homeowners will spend about $3.8 billion renovating their homes this year, making it important to hire a professional RenoMark renovator. “The RenoMark designation assures consumers that the renovator they are dealing with has completed industryleading education requirements and are part of a professional network apprised of the latest technologies and designs,” says de Wit. The event is free, but pre-registration is encouraged and attendees are asked to bring a non-perishable food item for the Greater Vancouver Food Bank Society. For more information and to register, visit www.gvhba.org or call 778-565-4288.

Morningstar Homes is bringing their single-family home expertise to South Surrey with The Village at Southwood, a collection of homes with some amazing curb appeal and great features, including a gorgeous kitchen and plenty of room for entertaining or relaxing.
The Village at Southwood delivers wow factor By Kerry Vital
Morningstar Homes has a reputation for being one of the top single-family builders in the Lower Mainland, with beautiful homes in several communities. Now, they’re bringing their expertise to South Surrey with The Village at Southwood. “South Surrey is one of the most soughtafter places to live,” says Deborah Calahan,
vice-president of sales and marketing for Morningstar. “There are so many amenities in the area. It’s close to great recreation like the new aquatic centre, good schools, the ocean, shopping, dining and the United States. It’s truly got it all!” The three-bedroom homes at The Village at Southwood are built in a contemporary West Coast style, with generous use of stucco, stone and wood that combines for some serious
curb appeal. Each home has a large private backyard for leisure time with the family. Inside, the spacious open floorplans range from 2,570 to 2,615 square feet, with an unfinished basement that gives buyers the option to include a deluxe finished basement or legal suite. The vaulted ceilings and window seats are just two beautiful details in the homes. Like all Morningstar homes, the kitchen is a highlight. “The kitchen is king in our homes,” Calahan says. The Village at Southwood kitchens include large granite islands perfect for entertaining or family meals, as well as high-end stainless-
steel appliances. Natural light is prevalent throughout the homes due to the huge windows. Gorgeous glass-paneled stairwells add to the open feel and contemporary look of the home. Another stunning addition is the linear gas fireplace in the living area. Upstairs, the master suite is an oasis, with a wall-to-wall seam-less glass shower enclosure with sitting bench, two hand-held wands and a large rain shower head. “The ensuite makes you feel like you’re on vacation at a luxury spa!” Calahan says. “They feel so extravagant.” Morningstar is offering several options to homeowners, allowing them to truly make their home their own. Among them are an indulgent steam shower, Nu Heat flooring in the master ensuite and main bathroom, an electric linear fireplace to add ambiance to either a master bedroom or den and a stateof-the-art four-zone Sono audio system. “There’s even some outdoor living choices like a garden bench with planters and faux grass for low-maintenance yards!” Calahan says. “People really appreciate that.” The homes opened for sale in August, and have already been very popular with buyers. “There has been an amazing response so far,” says Calahan. Part of the appeal is the neighbourhood. Close to the amenities of Morgan Crossing, nearly anything you can imagine is within walking or easy driving distance, and Highway 99 is just moments away. Recreation opportunities at Crescent Beach or one of the numerous golf courses and parks are all nearby. The exciting Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre is due to open next year. And kids can walk to the new elementary school that is slated to open in the near future located just down the street. “It’s really special,” Calahan says. “We’re really thrilled to be here.” For more information, visit www. mstarhomes.com, call 604-560-3450 or visit the presentation centre and three showhomes, located at 16708 23rd Avenue, South Surrey, open daily between noon and 6 p.m.

Langley City finalist for Open for Business Award The City of Langley is one of 13 finalists for the 2014 Open for Business Awards. The awards recognize communities that support small business through local government measures aligned with the B.C. Small Business Accord. “Small businesses are the heart and soul of our communities,” said Naomi Yamamoto, the minister of state for small business. “It’s imperative that B.C. has a business-friendly climate that allows them to grow and succeed. “The Open for Business Awards are a great opportunity for us to recognize communi-
ties that value the importance of small business.” “B.C.’s economy depends on local governments partnering with businesses to drive prosperity, community by community, right across the province. These awards both incentivize and recognize those efforts,” said John Winter, the president and CEO of the B.C. Chamber of Commerce. The other finalists are Delta, Grand Forks, Kelowna, Nelson, Parksville, Port Coquitlam, Revelstoke, Salmon Arm, Smithers, Surrey, Vernon and Whistler. “The submissions this year were well written and thoughtful. It is clear that munici-
palities are implementing programs that assist small business in reducing the time and cost of doing business with government, allowing business owners to concentrate their efforts on building their business and contributing to the communities they serve,” said Ian Tostenson, who is the chair for the Open for Business Award subcommittee. Each winning community receives $10,000 to support the implementation of measures that benefit small business. The winners will be announced next week (Sept. 24) at the Union of British Columbia Municipalities annual conference in Whistler.

What’s Happening at your
No vacation for home buyers in August Both residential sales and dollar figures were up last month compared to August 2013. According to numbers released by the British Columbia Real Estate Association (BCREA), a total of 7,341 residential sales were recorded by the Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in August, an increase of seven per cent from the same month the year before. And the total sales dollar volume was $4.1 billion, an increase of 12.4 per cent compared to August
2013. “Consumer demand remained relatively robust in August,” said Cameron Muir, the BCREA chief economist. “Home sales last month were the highest for the month of August since 2009.” The average MLS residential price in the province rose to $560,318, up five per cent from the same month last year. In the Fraser Valley, the average residential price was $528,939. In August 2013, that price was $482,006, a rise of
nearly 10 per cent. “Low mortgage rates, increased net-migration and improving economic conditions continue to underpin housing demand in the province,” added Muir. Year-to-date, BC residential sales dollar volume was up 22.8 per cent to $28.5 billion, compared to the same period last year. Residential unit sales were up 15.8 per cent to 57,715 units, while the average MLS residential price was up 6.1 per cent at $564,466.

Rivermen ready for puck drop PLENTY OF NEW FACES, BUT GOAL STILL THE SAME FOR LANGLEY JUNIOR HOCKEY TEAM: WIN A BCHL CHAMPIONSHIP GARY AH U J A Ti m e s Spo r ts
The last two post-seasons, the Langley Rivermen have had the misfortune of facing the eventual BCHL champions early in the playoffs. In 2013, as an underdog, Langley lost in the first round to the Surrey Eagles. And then in 2014 — after winning the Ron Boileau Memorial Trophy as the BCHL’s top team during the regular season for the first time in the history of junior A hockey in Langley — the Rivermen were upset by the upstart Coquitlam Express in the second round, the Mainland Division finals. “We saw some weaknesses that were exposed in those series,” said Bobby Henderson, the head coach and general manager of the Rivermen. “We made adjustments there.” He was chatting earlier this week as the junior A hockey club prepares for the start of the 2014/15 BCHL season. The season gets underway on Friday (Sept. 19) with the BCHL Bauer Showcase at Chilliwack’s Prospera Centre. All 16 teams play two games over the weekend with Langley facing the Salmon Arm Silverbacks on Friday and the Victoria Grizzlies on Sunday. Langley enters the regular season after a perfect pre-season as the team went 4-0, out-scoring their foes 28-14. “We saw some guys establish chemistry,” Henderson said. “And we pretty much had four lines contributing all the way through.” While the final roster cuts were still being finalized — teams have to be down to 22 players by today — there is definitely a lot of turnover from last year, especially on
the back-end for Langley. The Rivermen return seven players, all of whom are forwards. The goaltending tandem will be split between Bo Didur and Darren Martin. Didur was the back-up for the Eagles last season while Martin comes to Langley via the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League. The blue-line is also completely new as none of the six played in Langley last season. Half of those six are junior A rookies, as well. The team’s six defencemen average out at six-foot-three and 200 pounds, with the ‘smallest’ of the group coming in at six-footone and 181 pounds. “The one thing in particular is we are going to be a little bit tougher to play against in our own zone,” Henderson said. “We wanted to get, not necessarily bigger back there, but a little bit more sandpaper to play against, make it tougher for forwards to get to the middle of the ice and I think size is just a byproduct of that.” They all have the ability to skate and make plays, as well, Henderson added, noting that he expects Jake Kearley and Will Campion to lead the offensive push from the back-end. Up front, the Rivermen lost their top five scoring leaders. “Believe it or not, I think we have more skill up front than last year, but having said that, we are replacing some big bodies,” Henderson said. “Some of the other guys are going to have step up physically, but as far as ability goes, we shouldn’t miss a beat up there.” The team’s returning leading scorer is Will Cook, who had a dozen goals and 40 points a season ago. Henderson said Cook, Evan Anderson and Gage Torrel “are the

Langley Rivermen’s Kevan Kilistoff (right) stays ahead of Powell River Kings’ Stephen Hiff during BCHL action at the Langley Events Centre on Sunday. The Rivermen won 9-7 to finish the pre-season with a perfect record of 4-0. Kilistoff, a Langley Minor Hockey Association product, will serve as the team’s captain this season.

three guys we will look to carry the mail.” Darien Craighead (three goals, 22 points) and Marcus Vela (11 goals, 22 points) both played last season as 16-year-olds and the coach expects them to take big steps this season.
“Really, all the (returnees), if they are coming back, they are coming back for a reason,” he said. The two other returnees are pair of local Langley products in Brendan Gulka and Kevan Kilistoff. Kilistoff will serve as the Rivermen’s captain. “It’s definitely an honour,” Kilistoff said about being named captain. “I’m a Langley kid, so being a captain of your hometown team is a real honour.” As a BCHL rookie in 2013, he was part of the Eagles team which won the Fred Page Cup. Henderson said it was a no-brainer to name Kilistoff captain.
“Kevan’s a guy who comes to work every day with a positive attitude. He’s reliable as they come and will be a big part of our hockey club this season.” With the season set to get underway, Henderson said the goals remains the same: secure a playoff berth first, and then focus on winning the division title. The ultimate goal remains hoisting the Fred Page Cup. “That is always the goal,” he said. “We get closer and closer every year, but I would like to take a giant step there and take home a lot of hardware (this season).” The Rivermen home opener is set for Oct. 4 when they welcome the Nanaimo Clippers to the Langley Events Centre.

Rams return to win column
The last-place Valley Huskers helped the Langley Rams get their game back on track. One week after being held to a season-low 10 points, the Rams junior football team got back into the win column, running at will over the winless Huskers squad. Langley rushed the ball for 223 yards and scored three touchdowns along the ground in a 46-7 victory on Saturday night at McLeod Athletic Park. Langley scored all their points prior to halftime. The win improved the Rams to 5-2 and a share of second-place in the B.C. Football Conference with the Kamloops Broncos.
Nathan Lund had 88 yards rushing and two scores and Jordan Traversy rushed for 52 yards and one touchdown. Daniel English caught a touchdown pass from Jordan McCarty and English finished with 124 yards on five receptions. Malcolm Williams was McCarty’s other favourite target, hauling in four passes for 80 yards as the quarterback finished 9-for-17 for 204 yards. He also threw one pick. And the Rams other touchdown came via special teams as John Beckerleg took a punt 69 yards for the score. Steve Thomas was perfect in the kicking game, hitting all three field goal attempts (37 yards, 17 yards and 32 yards) and nailed all five convert attempts.
Thomas was named the league’s special teams player of the week, the third time this season he has earned the honour. Steven Martinez, Dennis Olivera and Jarren Ralf had three tackles apiece. ••• The Rams play their regular season finale on Saturday (Sept. 20) with the V.I. Raiders (3-4) as the opponent. The Raiders and Langley have each won once in their head-to-head games this season with V.I. winning most recently. After that, Langley closes with a game at the first-place Okanagan Sun (6-1) before closing against the Huskers (0-7) in Chilliwack.

Just over $10,000 was raised for Big Brothers Big Sisters Langley at the fourth annual Grant Thornton Community Challenge Road Hockey Rumble. “It was a fantastic event,” said Mary Reeves, the executive director for BBBSL. “Everything went great.” Close to 150 players of all ages — Reeves estimates the youngest was about three years old — took part in the day-long event on Saturday in the parking lot at the Langley Events Centre. This was the fourth year of the Rumble, with more than $35,000 raised. It was also the first time it was held outside the LEC as previously it had been played in the outdoor sports box at McLeod Athletic Park. Reeves said the new venue gave them a lot more room to run their event and also leaves them options should they increase in size in the coming years.
Facing the same opponent for a second consecutive week, the North Langley Bears were once again able to pitch a shutout, blanking the Meadow Ridge Gold Knights 18-0. The peewee football squads were playing on Saturday in Maple Ridge and the victory improved North Langley to 2-0-1 in the Valley Community Football League. Marcus Stang led the Bears offensive attack with 56 yards rushing and a pair of touchdowns. The other touchdown came courtesy of Jordan Williamson, as the quarterback scored on a one-yard keeper. Jedakai Hurley finished with 50 yards rushing. The Bears defence was dominant as they held the Knights to a net gain of 27 yards. Connor Bernardin set the tone in the first quarter, as he tackled a ball carrier for a 14-yard loss.

North Langley shuts down Cloverdale attack From Page 32
Callum Middleton and Nicholas Reimer both had big games with drive-ending tackles. Middleton also had a fumble recovery. ••• The North Langley Bears improved to 3-0 after an impressive 41-1 victory over the Cloverdale Leopards in bantam football on Sunday. The Bears used their legs for the victory as four different running backs found the end zone, led by Zander Bailey and Treven Baarts, who had a pair of scores apiece. Nick Lacroix scored on a spectacular 42-
yard run and Connor Hurley rounded things out on a 24-yard quarterback keeper which went for a touchdown. Kicker Charlie May made five of his six convert attempts and also pinned the Leopards deep in their own territory with his kickoffs. The Bears defence nearly had a shutout, only surrendering a single point on a missed field goal. Jake Evans and Pablo Wigwigan led the defence. ••• A solid effort wasn’t enough as the North Langley junior bantam Bears fell 34-0 to the Chilliwack Giants.
The junior bantam football game was played in Chilliwack last Friday night. Evan Rees was named player of the game after a solid game rushing the ball, and recovering a Giants fumble on defence. Joey Yeomans, Jacob Thorpe and Rees also teamed up for a big quarterback sack while Jacob Ronald and Brodie Tarling helped keep the Chilliwack offence at bay in the early going. Brandon Brynjolfson, Ethan Berardin and Trevor Paulenz had some success moving the ball for the offence.
Preventing gang activity in BC ▾ MYTH: The public is powerless against gangs. Reality: Be engaged and part of the solution. If you see something suspicious, whether it’s in a restaurant, mall parking lot, or in an isolated place, please phone 9-1-1 immediately so the police can investigate. Only with a community that cares and stands up to gangs and gang violence will we make a difference so our communities are safer.

terms of drivability is a better jump off the line and improved highway cruising. Because the new transmission reduces weight and friction, the fuel economy has improved by 16 per cent, which is an amazing accomplishment in such a small car. Rated at 7.0L/100km in the city and 5.7L on the highway, using the much tougher 2015 fuel standards, this represents fuel number buyers will actually be able to achieve. In addition, the suspension has been improved for more responsiveness but I found the ride a bit choppy over bumpy roads.

This is the EX trim with leather and navigation, making the fit downright opulent. This isn’t the least expensive car in this class but on the whole it offers so much more than just a price point.

Milton Keynes, England: As we each climbed into a gleaming Infiniti Q50 sports sedan, one killjoy warned the road to the Belgian Grand Prix would be like a dance – quick, quick, slow. The tour of the Infiniti-Red Bull Racing factory had us pumped and ready to roar Sebastian Vettel-like, along the UK’s motorway network to Folkestone, Kent. There we would take Le Shuttle train beneath the waves of the English Channel to France and on to Spa, Belgium. It would be a 600-kilometre drive (374 miles) and take less than six hours. The doomsayer was right, try ten hours!

“The four-time F1 champ influenced the production of the sharp-looking Q50 we drove to race weekend. “ However, plain sailing it was not as we encountered motorway chaos to the EuroTunnel. It was equal parts low-gear slow crawl, near-posted speed limit bursts – enabling a few paddle-flipping-gear changes – and parking pauses long enough to test the eight-position power seat adjustments and play with the large dual touch screen infotainment displays. The navigation system ‘lady’ suggested we take the M25 the opposite way around London. Whoops. Should have ignored her. Nevertheless, this was all a blessing because the car was forced to perform in adverse conditions and its mettle/metal was truly tested. Extended time at the wheel of a 328-horsepower 3.7-litre V6 version (starts at $37,500) and a Hybrid ($10,000 more) with a 3.5-litre engine left me scratching my head about which would be my choice. Both provide a quiet, comfortable drive, not averse to a sprint when necessary, all aided by a seven-speed auto transmission that is as a smooth as a baby’s you-know-what. All-wheel-drive would be an option I would choose on either model.The drive mode selector offers snow, eco, standard, sport and personal settings – my drive partner and I invented the new exceptionally slow mode. Interestingly, the constantly changing speed limits flashing above helped “Along the way, show off the predictive forward reflective signs collision technology. If you trust the car ahead, the radar-controlled gizmo urged us to visit will govern your speed and braking such historic automatically. You soon figure whether he’s locations as trustworthy or not. In addition, Dunkirk, Bruges lane control keeps you on the and Brussels.” straight and narrow should you drift into that passing car you were alerted to by another warning system. Thanks to the $320 flexi pass, we rolled with ease onto the train and smirked at the lineup with the $120 tickets. About 40 minutes later, we were enjoying the French countryside, travelling for extended periods at the construction zone speed of 30 klicks. Darkness enveloped the road ahead but our way through Belgium was lit by the most spectacular electric storm. Ah yes, the windshield wipers performed efficiently in a downpour of Biblical proportions. Along the way, reflective signs urged us to visit such historic locations as Dunkirk, Bruges and Brussels, but we steamed on determined to reach Spa, birthplace of Agatha Christie’s fictional detective Hercule Poirot. Vettel showed off a prototype of the super-powered Q50 Eau Rouge version, named for the Belgian track’s famous corner. Perhaps a repeat of the route, including scenic diversions, in a production Eau Rouge would be fun. Just saying. Contact keith.morgan@drivewaybc.ca

“Our animations are cinematic in that we try to convey the message within a product and express ‘the feel’ of that vehicle, as best we can,” said Nowak. “We’re trying to create a reality, before a reality actually exists, yet achieve a level of realism. We live for that challenge and it’s very exciting and rewarding, especially in the artistic pursuit.” Designing a new automobile is a long and complex process that typically takes about two years, yet it still starts with a simple two-dimensional sketch. In the digital age, however, that sketch is done on a specialized computer tablet, as it’s easier and faster to then develop it into a 3D model. From there, an actual scaled-down clay or foam model can be produced. As they move ahead in this design decision phase, more complex 3D design themes are explored and eventually D Cab SR5 MODEL SHOWN a full-size clay model is produced. TUNDRA “What we’re seeing now is a whole new generation of tools that allow us to work more intuitively,” said OR GET UP TO Nowak. “The transition from hands-on sketching and $ hard clay sculpting tools to computer inputs was a chalCASH BACK lenge for some designers. Now we’re seeing a maturity of the technology to a point that these (digital) tools are becoming more like those organic tools again. Before Ford commits to producing expensive full-scale models, a lot of animation work is now performed. “This is my world,” affirmed Nowak. “We build a lot of complex visual experiences to allow all stakeholders within our company (Ford) understand what the embodiment of that proposal is and hopefully galvanize a common view or understanding of what that theme represents.” Animations created by the ten-person 2000x Studio team begin with a storyboard of proposed shots, just like a Hollywood or Disney movie. The images produced are in ultra-high definition, known as 4K, which is four times clearer than commercial high-definition imaging, as there’s intense attention to detail of all facets of the vehicle – exterior, interior, proportions, stance, etc. “In addition to being a powerful internal communication tool, digital animation is also a great tool that we hand-off to our marketing organization,” said Nowak. “It also allows us to do more in the same amount of time. In the past, we might have only been able to do one design theme in a development time block. Now we can do ten, fifteen or even twenty design themes in that same time block.” Jeffrey Nowak has been with the Ford Motor Company for eighteen years and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in industrial design (transportation) from the College for Creative Studies. He holds more than 30 design patents with Ford Motor Company and is considered an industry leader in the field of computer-aided industrial design process and technology. And he’s a big admirer of movie director/producer Michael Bay, who is best known for the Transformers movie series. ‡‡
