Blindness doesn’t stop nine-year-old from doing what she loves MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Times Reporter

lla Yu runs into the waiting room of the Langley Community Music School with her arms stretched out, feeling every object in front of her — a chair, a table, a pencil, a camera bag. “What’s this?” she asks, as she runs her tiny hands over a tripod before sitting down in a stiff black chair. Ella’s curiosity is uncontrollable. Having been blind since birth, the nine-year-old must know every detail about everything around her. “Do you write on the back of your pages in your notebook?” she asks,
after hearing the page of a notepad turn. “Do you skip a line or do you just keep it on one line? Do you keep it spaced out or do you do it in paragraph format, without needing to line space?” It’s minute details that she asks about, and yet these are very important for her to be able to visualize the world she lives in. Ella was born premature and had difficulties breathing. She was sent to the neonatal intensive care unit where doctors put her in an induced sleep for three weeks, and pumped her with medicine and oxygen to ensure her survival. But it wasn’t until she gradually recovered and was about to be sent home that doctors noticed there was something wrong with her eyes.They soon discovered that her retinas were detached. She was blind. It isn’t known if this happened before she was born or during her

treatment after birth. At first, she had light reception in both eyes, but over the years, her left eye has worsened and has lost all sense of sight, though she can still see light through her right eye. But Ella doesn’t let this hinder her from doing all the activities other nine-year-olds do. In fact, in some areas, such as music, she is far more advanced than average kids her age. Ella, who calls North Delta home, has been attending the Langley Community Music school for two years. She began playing the piano when she was four, and when her teacher moved to Scotland, came to Langley to continue her lessons. At this time she took up the violin as well. For her, playing music is all about feeling and sound. “The piano is quite thick and then the violin is quite thin,” she said, comparing the two instruments.“The

piano might seem thicker than any other instrument because it rings quite a bit. If you play piano in certain places it would ring a lot. And the violin (rings) only when you’re in a really big room and there’s tons of echoes. “I think the violin is more interesting. I can do more things with the violin than the piano.There can by melody, voices can be shifted and could be made different and there can be many different tones played.” Because she cannot read sheet music, Ella has been taught to play through the Suzuki program, which concentrates on mimicking sounds. It is known as the mother-tongue method, following the idea that if every child knows how to speak their mother’s language, then when they listen to music they can pick up the sounds the same way they do when
A house near Al Anderson Pool was struck by lightning on Tuesday night, frying a computer, phone and TV as a spectacular storm ripped through Langley and the Lower Mainland. Resuming again early Wednesday, the storm left dozens of residences without electricity. B.C. Hydro reported that pockets of Langley Township still had no power on Wednesday morning.These included Clovermeadow Crescent, the 8000 block of Glover Road, the 23500 block of River Road, and an area of Brookswood centered around 202 Street and 28 Avenue. Despite the ferocious storm, the Township fire department had a relatively quiet night, said spokesman Bruce Ferguson. In Langley City, all the action seemed to come at once with crews responding to four calls in four minutes, said fire chief Rory Thompson. Firefighters were called to the 5300 block of 207 Street after residents reported a lightning strike which set a fir tree on fire. By the time firefighters arrived, the flames were out.The strike sheared off the top half of the tree which was near a playground. Thompson and Ferguson said that there were no injuries reported as a result of the storm.

Trailblazing Mountie weighs in on lawsuits MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
Langley’s Jane Hall, one of the first women in Canada to become an RCMP officer, is standing behind her troop mate Val MacLean, who has joined 200 female Mounties in a class action sexual harassment lawsuit against the force. “Val came forward for all the right reasons. She is showing her support for this and to take this on takes courage,” said Hall. MacLean was the public face of the Better Business Bureau in B.C. for years. She left the RCMP after constant sexual harassment by her superiors. In 2007, Hall published her tell-all book The Red Wall; A Woman in the RCMP, detailing what it was like to be in the first group of women to graduate from RCMP Depot and become an RCMP officer in the mid-1970s, when it was a male-only organization. She details how the force originally out-
fitted women in long dresses and with a purse instead of a gun holster. She faced hazing and harassment from some male officers who didn’t want to see females in the force. “I share Val’s disappointment. Val and I, we thought we were going to be game changers, but here we are [nearly 40 years later] and we are still tripping over the same issues,” said Hall. She said the class action suit will be historic if it gets approval by the courts to go ahead. Despite the obvious problems within the force, Hall is a staunch supporter of the RCMP organization. Her husband is a recently-retired RCMP inspector. “All of this is tarnishing a world-class organization. The members out there on the ground are doing such fantastic work and have the support of the public but it’s the leadership of the RCMP that needs to show it wants to change,” Hall said. To that she is “hopeful but skeptical.” “I haven’t seen anything tangible so far.
If they continue to deal with things in piece-meal, it could mean real problems for the RCMP as a national treasure,” Hall said. She said morale among officers and retired Mounties is low right now. “The RCMP are still attracting the best and the brightest, but if things continue the way they are, will the best continue to apply?” Hall asks. She thinks there needs to be a national standard in leadership and that means new leadership development training. She believes where the RCMP has been going “sideways” is by dealing with each controversial “bad apple” situation in isolation, instead of having a standard across the board. “Currently, leadership and what is tolerated ranges from detachment to detachment,” she said. “There needs to be zero tolerance and real discipline,” she said. continued, PAGE 4
A group of Glen Valley residents have organized an afternoon of guided tours through the forested lands known as Gray Pit. The property lies not far from McLellan Park which residents successfully lobbied Township council to preserve. The municipality had hoped to use the funds from the sale of the 21-acre McLellan Park to finance the purchase of the Aldergrove Elementary school site on which it plans to build a community centre, ice rink and swimming pool. Gray Pit forest consists of several parcels, five of which the Township still intends to sell. An appraisal has placed the value of three five-acre lots at $625,000 each, one five-acre parcel at $645,000, and another five acres at $578,000. Several weeks ago, the Township rejected auction bids because they were too low. The parcels are now for sale on MLS. The guided tours are from noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 12 by the residents who have formed WOLF — Watchers of Langley Forests. McLellan Park and Gray Pit forests have been in Township hands since the 1930s. Those interested in touring the coniferous forest should meet WOLF volunteers on 257A Street, approximately two blocks north of 84 Avenue.

“When there is a slap on the wrist for officers who are [acting badly, by bullying or through harassment], it’s like a wink, wink, nudge nudge, especially if it’s a supervisor,” she said. RCMP Sgt. Don Ray has managed to keep his job as a Mountie after admitting to having alcohol-fueled parties in his office, harassing subordinates and exposing his genitals to co-workers. “They really need to get this right. To do that, they are going to have to go outside the gene pool to get the advice they need for real change.” Hall knows a thing or two about these issues. She is a member of the Public Safety Leadership Development Consortium and the Police Futurists and the International Association of Women in Policing. She has worked with police members from across the continent, looking at the issues surrounding leadership, and her group has come up with what she thinks are some dynamic ideas. “If the commissioner wants to hear them, he can always call me,” she said when asked if the group is sharing any of the ideas with new RCMP leader Bob Paulson. As of Wednesday, she began the writing process to finish a sequel to her book The Red Wall. “When I wrote it, I knew I had only written half a book,” she said. “This is the continuation. I’m hoping for a happy ending, but the jury is still out.” Hall was an RCMP officer for 20 years, retiring in 1998.

resurrection of Hudson Bay Company traders, trappers, First Nations, and women and children dressed in period clothing wandered the grounds at the Fort Langley National Historic Site over the August long weekend for the annual Brigade Days. The costumed interpreters, along with visitors to the Fort, celebrated the birthplace of B.C. in a three-day re-enactment of the Fort in its heyday in the 1840s and 1850s. This included fur trade weddings, musket demonstrations, traditional music and dancing, customary campfire cooking and a traditional canoe brigade. This echoed events from the past when HBC trappers arrived at the Fort by canoe on the Fraser River with their furs. It was a mass coming together of people, and a tradition that the Fort is continuing today. Many participants in this year’s Brigade came from out of town in the Okanagan and Washington State to dress up and spend a weekend living a lifestyle long since passed.

They also brought all of their own costumes and props to s e t up the small tent village inside the walls of the Fort, said Rick Herfst, a participant who drove down from Bridal Falls to dress up as an HBC worker for the event. His collection of props include a tent made of canvas painters tarp, self-made wooden boxes, a vintage shirt sewn by his wife and furs and moccasins found at a second hand store. He and many of the other costumed visitors travel around B.C. and Washington to participate in similar brigade events throughout the year. See video at www.langleytimes.com.

You & The Law
PRESENTS Boating accidents and the law One of the highlights of our short Canadian summer is water fun on our many lakes, rivers and B.C. coastline – taking the boat out, water-skiing, zooming around on a sea-doo, pulling the kids around on inflatable tubes or banana boats and, of course, swimming. But one of the unfortunate consequences of these water sports is the significant number of accidents that occur. About 200 people die each year in boating accidents, and many more are injured in water-related accidents in Canada. Sadly, many such accidents involve teens and young children. More stringent boating safety rules have recently been put in place to help prevent boating accidents. For example, all motor boats now need a boating licence, and all operators of jet skis and power boats need a competency licence (no matter how small the motor). But accidents still happen – collisions between powerboats and ferries or powerboats and sailboats, jet-boats speeding on rivers and grounding out (injuring passengers), the list goes on. On Hatzic Lake in the summer of 2010, a 16-year-old girl standing at the bow (front) of a powerboat fell off and was lost when the boat turned sharply to pick up a fallen wakeboarder. It’s believed the boat struck the girl and she drowned. Common reasons for boating accidents and injuries include the usual suspects – going too fast, not properly watching out for swimmers or other boats, untrained boat operators and driving a boat while drunk (a biggie) are among them. Note that it’s a criminal offence to operate a boat while impaired, and you’ll be slapped with a $600 fine for a first offence. But there are also less obvious causes for accidents. In one case a few years ago, the BC Supreme Court had to deal with conflicting evidence about what caused a powerboat
to broadside a sailboat at night near the shoreline on Lake Okanagan. The collision destroyed both boats and injured people on each. It turned out the fault lay with the sailboat. A key reason was that the sailboat operator hadn’t switched on the required lights, like the bright light at the stern (back) of the boat and possibly also the green and red lights on the starboard (right) and port (left) side). The powerboat operator couldn’t see the black sailboat on the dark lake water until it was too late. The injured powerboat operator and his fiancée recovered damages. In another recent case, a guest at a fishing lodge in the Queen Charlotte Islands received over $370,000 for a serious break to his thigh. He fell in the fishing boat he was given after it malfunctioned and veered suddenly. The lodge was negligent for not warning him of reports that the boat had a defective steering system. Claims and lawsuits following boating accidents involve marine law and have many unusual features that distinguish them from cases of, say, car accidents which depend on just the ordinary rules of negligence law. They may bring into play the federal Shipping Act, which governs shipping (including pleasure craft on lakes and rivers, not just ocean-going vessels). Claims may also involve the federal Marine Liability Act, which limits the liability of ships and the amount an accident victim can recover. If you’re involved in a water sport accident, whether as victim or as the person potentially at fault, seek out experienced legal help.

listening to people speak around them. Ella also has help from the computer system Musitek SmartScore. Her mom can scan in sheet music, change it to a PDF and the computer will convert it to an audio midi file. Ella then has the ability to listen to the piece over and over again at home, separate the left hand from the right hand in piano pieces, and even speed up or slow down the tempo. “As the pieces get more and more difficult, it’s hard for her to get every note just by listening to it,� Ella’s mother Wendy explained. “So I have to scan the music, change it to PDF file and the software turns it to a midi. Of course the teacher can teach her but in that way it takes a long time. Sometimes she just learns it by herself, it’s just easier for her. And she can listen to the difficult parts again and again. It’s very helpful. She learns almost all of her piano pieces like this.� Learning to play music has not only been challenging for Ella, but for her piano and violin instructors as well. Neither had taught a blind student before. In piano, the greatest issue to overcome was teaching Ella to know instinctively where each key is. When she had to jump from note to note, she would physically stop playing and follow the pattern of the black keys with her fingers to find the correct key. “That was her first frustrating time because she wasn’t sure how to keep the music going, but not miss the notes,� said her piano instructor Michelle Chattaway. “At first we started with her playing the first note before a jump and I would put my hand beside the key and she would hop there.That was okay at

She could feel the arc better. So then it became arcs. We would literally slowly feel the shape of each arc every time she had to jump somewhere.� A lot also has to do with natural talent, her violin teacher Luiza Nelepcu said. “The violin is a lot of feeling. You feel the instrument more than the piano on the tip of your fingers. So in that respect I think it’s the right instrument for Ella,� she said. “And she’s very talented. We really don’t need to teach her the notes, she picks them all up by ear. It’s really just the art of holding the bow.That was a bit of a challenge for her to feel that. “I thought teaching her would be more challenging, but not when she has such talent.

My face reflects things and I can feel it in my face bones. “Before we continue this interview I have a question,� she suddenly says mid-thought. “Where do you live? What kind of house? Is it like an apartment? How many people are in your family? Do you have any musical stuff around you in your place?� This is just the way Ella is. Her thirst for knowledge is incredible, Chattaway said. “Whenever I give her a nugget of information that she hasn’t heard before she actually bounces, she gets so excited,� she said. “She’s hungry for input. A very curious person. “She’s pretty fearless.� See video at www. langleytimes.com.

Using walkers, two women with crew cuts accused of stealing MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
Thieves come in all ages, abilities and haircuts, as seen recently with a pair of suspected female shoplifters who come in using walkers and sporting crew cuts. Langley RCMP and the Downtown Business Association are warning about the women after several businesses along the one way on Fraser Highway have been robbed. The Passionate Home was the first to report that they had the two ladies in their store on Saturday, July 28. The women are accused of taking three pairs of earrings and

A pair of women using walkers are shown on surveillance footage inside an art gallery in downtown Langley. They are accused of shoplifting at several stores. two necklaces. The older suspect, thought to be around 50-years-old, used a wheelchair on the Sat-
urday and came back the next day pushing a walker. Both have crew cuts and the younger one,
thought to be in her 40s, has a tattoo up the back of her leg. They returned the next day with three large, open shopping bags tied to their walkers. The younger one engages the shopkeeper in conversation and directs attention away from the older woman who is alleged to take the goods. Langley RCMP said they are investigating after receiving a couple reports of shoplifting by the pair. If you have information about these suspects or about other robberies call the Langley RCMP at 604-5323200 or Crimestoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS.
Bathing costs more for some Simple solution would cost only $2.50 per house, says resident NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
Mark Fettback lives in the 5200 block of 219 A Street, a cul de sac of eight high-end homes built two years ago. When someone in the Fettback home, or any of six others in the cul de sac, runs a bath with 80 gallons of water, it will fill faster than the eighth home. And cost significantly more. What sets Fettback’s house and the six others part is the size of the water pipe running from the street to their houses. The standard is a one inch pipe. Theirs is a 1.25 inch pipe, while
the eighth property had an existing one inch pipe in place when the house was constructed. The only difference it makes, Fettback explained to Township council in July, is that the wider pipe fills up the tub faster. But residents are paying for the inequity. Fettback’s house, and the six other houses with the larger diameter water pipe, pay about $1,800 a year for water. These seven houses are all on water meters, Fettback advised council.The eighth house, which Fettback said is the largest, pays $400 a year. “We just want to be equal

He offered a solution: a $2.50 reducer for each of the seven houses. “We do not use more water than our other Murrayville neighbours. We just have a quarterinch larger pipe. “We agree this is not needed, but who made the mistake?” he asked council. Council asked staff to compile a report for when Township meetings resume after the summer break in September.

T
he sentence handed down to former RCMP Cpl. Benjamin Monty Robinson is a disgrace. It leaves the justice system in ill repute. Everyone involved in this obstruction of justice case should do all they can to see that the sentence is changed to more properly fit the crime, and the criminal. Robinson was the officer in charge of a four-man RCMP squad who Tasered Polish immigrant Robert Dziekanski to death at the Vancouver Airport in October, 2007. One year later, in October, 2008, he was at a party in South Delta. He left and, while driving home, struck and killed a 21-year-old motorcyclist, Orion Hutchinson. Robinson had his children in the car and immediately left the scene of the crash with them. He went home, downed several shots of vodka, and then returned to the scene. He was charged and eventually convicted of obstruction of justice because he made it impossible for Delta Police to collect evidence regarding impaired driving. He never pleaded guilty, but stretched the case out all the way. At his trial in February, court was told he had previously told friends how to beat an impaired driving charge. Robinson still faces a charge of perjury over his testimony to the Braidwood Commission, established following the Dziekanski death. On Friday, July 27, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Janice Dillon sentenced Robinson to a 12-month conditional sentence on the obstruction of justice charge. One month is to be served under house arrest. He received no jail time. Robinson did not resign from the RCMP until July 20, the day his sentencing hearing began. He will receive an RCMP pension, recognizing all his years in the force, including the past four years, where he has been paid while not working. Dillon’s sentence completely glossed over the fact that Robinson was an RCMP officer. As such, any conviction on an obstruction of justice charge is far more serious than in other circumstances. She also said he deserved a lighter sentence because he is of native extraction, a statement that has drawn scorn from numerous aboriginal leaders. The sentence must be appealed. It cannot be allowed to stand, if we truly believe that police must be held to a higher standard than other citizens when they are convicted of breaking the law.

oastal authorities in B.C. have long been putting together tsunami and earthquake preparedness plans. The need is growing greater for the three levels of government to have a definite plan in place to deal with potentially environmentally dangerous debris from last year’s earthquake and tsunami in Japan washing up on B.C. coastlines. Items ripped apart by powerful waves, much of them covered with sea life that could threaten native species, have for months been arriving on the western shorelines of Vancouver Island and Haida Gwaii. Residents and others concerned about threats to the pristine nature of coastal areas have been doing their best to remove the material. No one knows, given the unpredictable nature of ocean currents, just how much flotsam will reach B.C. shores. But enough has arrived already to inform provincial and federal authorities of the extent of the problem. The province is in a “fact-gathering stage” on the issue, said Environment Minister Terry Lake, who recently toured Haida Gwaii. His comments that any cleanup plan must be a joint effort between local, provincial and federal governments and First Nations make sense, but indicate the province is not willing to take the lead on tackling this problem. The shockingly low cleanup grant of $50,000 from the U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, for each of the five states affected, shows how low this issue is on that government’s priority list. We hope our federal government, already showing a similar lack of respect for the environment through budget cuts, does not take a similar tack by downplaying this serious issue. —Victoria News (Black Press)

Delay of wildlife crossing signs questioned Editor: When will the signs stating “Wildlife crossings — reduce speed” be put up in high mortality zones? One such street, 208 Street between 86 and 70 Avenues, has been identified as an arterial road, with over half of observed road kill so far. Over the long weekend, two more victims were hit by cars within half a block of each other on 208 Street, this time at 84 Avenue. The fatalities occurred on the southbound lane, right outside the sold acreage of mixed habitat, just south of the 208 Street overpass. This is the last remaining undeveloped land on 208 Street in the Yorkson area. I urge each councillor, the mayor and planning director Ramin Seifi to drive by this block to see how crucial it will be that the excavation protocol be implemented when this property gets developed. The protocol would compel contractors to delineate the excavation direction, specifically away from busy streets such as 208 Street. One can easily imagine the increase in wildlife fatalities at this location as devel-
opment progresses. The second reason for these fatalities is driving behaviour. As I noted in my road kill report to Langley Township council back in September 2011, posting signs will help draw motorists’ attention in high-occurrence zones. This is one location that a sign on both sides of the road is warranted. Motorists travelling southbound on 208 Street overpass gain speed and momentum at the bottom of the overpass, which is right where the undeveloped mixed habitat land is located, on the west side of 208 Street. This is where the two victims were killed. Contributed photo There is a maximum speed limit A crow was hit by a car and killed on 208 Street in sign of 50 km/hr at the north end of the overpass, for the southbound Willoughby. There is a plan to install wildlife crosslane. This is just before going uphill, ing signs but thus far, none has been erected. and motorists need to accelerate. speeds tend to increase.

decide to put wildlife crossing signs up? What does it take to install some signs to warn motorists of potential wildlife crossings on 208 Street? The first victim at the start of the long weekend was a rabbit. The trail of dried blood was visible for days. The second victim is a crow. How fast would the motorist have to be travelling so that hitting the crow could not be avoided? It appears that more time and energy is spent on not having to do anything, by giving unsubstantiated reasons. Let’s put some simple measures in place to mitigate humanwildlife road fatalities. All life is precious, especially to those individuals who have lost theirs — and in such a violent manner upon impact from motor vehicles. Patricia Tallman, Willoughby
Did the missing teddy bears go off to a picnic? Editor: When you drive north on 272 Street in North Langley, just before you go down the steep winding hill in the ravine, there in a bush area on the east side of the road are two teddy bears sitting on a stump under an umbrella. They have been there for the past couple of years. It started with just one teddy bear. I saw it and it put a smile on my face.
I always wondered why it was there. Maybe someone found it on the road and put it there so the owner might see it if they happened to drive by. Then, one day, another smaller bear showed up beside it. I thought it was so cute and every day on my way home from work it really did put a smile on my face. I wondered how long they would be there before someone took them or the
No extra costs for sign flip Editor: The letter from Jon Weenk (The Times, July 31) regarding flipping school signs was laughable. It costs nothing to change the signs over, let’s be serious. The costs have already been budgeted throughout the year and it does not cost a single penny more for the writer. Further, to suggest that the Township
of Langley manager has a son or daughter performing this work was simply a cheap shot and devoid of any evidence. Why people would take such trivial issues so seriously tells me that they have too much time on their hands and should use their energy in a more positive way. Clayton Randle, Langley

weather destroyed them but they always looked the same — no moss or mould — just cuddled together in the rain and snow and sunshine. And, finally, there was an umbrella with two big eyes on it, sheltering them from the rain and sun. It was so cute. Last week, I noticed only the umbrella was there. What happened to the bears? Where did they go? Maybe they went to a

Pay your taxes, and then pay again for services Editor: I have been a resident and a homeowner for the past 30 years in Aldergrove. The small town is gradually getting bigger under the Township of Langley’s wings. I’ve paid my taxes every year faithfully — no services for most years, but you pay anyhow. Then your hot water tank blows, unfortunally in the evening. You phone the Township, because your main water line needs to be shut off so the plumber can fix your problem. Guess what — it’s $200 for shut-off and
then another $80 to get it turned back on. Hopefully that happens during the day, otherwise it’s another $200. You are paying $280 for something nobody wants to happen to them in the first place. The bottom line is that this is 10 per cent of the taxes I pay every year — for what service? This is absolutely not acceptable. Why do I have to pay for a service I already pay for every year? I guess these are my tax dollars at work. Margriet Vankesteren, Aldergrove

Aldergrove Army Cadets top in platoon Two Aldergrove Army Cadets received awards for their achievements at the final parade at Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre. Cadet Daryl Rowse received the award as top cadet in 23 Platoon of the Basic Expedition Course, while Cadet Philippe Gore won his award as best overall cadet in the First Intake of the Basic Military Band Course. Both cadets are members of 1922 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, Aldergrove. Presenting the awards was Reviewing Officer Colonel Nic Stanton, Chief of Staff for Land Forces Western Area. Cadet Rowse spent three weeks learning the fundamentals of expedition training, including how to select and navigate a route using maps, how to pack for an expedition, how to establish a daily routine, how to ride a mountain bike on trails and how to paddle a canoe on flat water. The training was used during a five-day expedition in the hills overlooking the Okanagan Valley. Expedition cadets also spent time on the indoor climbing wall and the abseil tower. Expedition cadets also spent a day in Sicamous, cleaning up tons of debris washed down from the mountains during a flood earlier this summer. Cadet Gore attended the three-week Basic Military Band Course at Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre where cadets were taught how to assemble, disassemble, maintain and store their instruments, how to apply music theory and play as members of an ensemble and to drill as a member of a band. Cadets also had time for fitness training and testing, sports and practice on the abseil tower. During the summer, more than 1,150 army, sea and air cadets from western Canada spend up to six weeks in Vernon, expanding the training they receive at their home corps, developing new skills and fostering new friendships.

Shots fired at rural house Trial date expected for man accused in February bus attacks MONIQUE TAMMINGA Times Reporter
No one was injured when a house in rural Langley was shot at on Monday night. At around 11 p.m., shots were fired into a home in the 22600 block of 56 Avenue, said Langley RCMP. The shooting doesn’t appear to be random. The home is known to police. So far, police don’t have any suspects or suspect vehicle descriptions. If you have any information about this shooting, call Langley RCMP at 604-5323200.
BUS ATTACKS
A 20-year-old man charged in connection with two violent
attacks on local transit, including the choking of a bus driver and stabbing of a passenger in Aldergrove, made another appearance in Surrey Provincial Court on Wednesday. Steven Fayant is charged with aggravated assault for the stabbing of a 41-year-old Langley man who was getting off the bus near Aldergrove Centre Mall on Feb. 21. Fayant is also charged with assault in connection with strangling a Surrey bus driver on Feb. 18. He appeared in court to fix a date for his trial. He is also there to deal with another charge of assault that took place on Sept. 25, 2011 in Langley. Fayant was denied bail in
March and has been behind bars since the February attacks. At the time, Langley RCMP said that Fayant was arrested a couple of days later at his Surrey home. The arrest was made possible after a Langley Mountie recognized the man from surveillance footage provided by TransLink. The victim of the stabbing wasn’t known to the suspect and it isn’t known what provoked the stabbing, said police. He was stabbed in the back as he was getting off the bus. The 41-year-old victim is recovering from the stabbing. In the Surrey incident, a rider returned to the driver and started choking him. The assailant suddenly let go and ran off the bus.
Council gives third reading for Seventh Day Adventist building NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
Despite opposition from the people who will be most impacted, a majority of Township council has given crucial third reading to a bylaw rezoning 4.7 acres of rural land to accommodate a church. Kim Richter was the only councillor to vote against the rezoning, which changes the land use at 23589 Old Yale Road from rural to institutional. Acknowledging the “many, many good things” the church does in the community, Richter said at a June council meeting that the application does not meet assembly use guidelines.” Furthermore, she said, “It’s rural, not urban, and I have a strong concern about paving five acres in Langley.” Satisfied that the Fraser Highway driveway would allow only right turns in and out of the church property, Councillor Steve Ferguson said the location “fits in with what we are trying to do with the community.” The Seventh Day Adventist Church plans to build a church large enough for 900 worshipers, as well as a sports courts, a games area and auditorium, and parking for 325 vehicles. However, at a public hearing on May 14, most speakers had reservations about the proposal. One resident said
that with so much of the five acres covered by buildings or pavement, rainwater would pool. And, because the area has a clay base, the water would find its way to his land. He noted that Old Yale Road is a very old street, narrow and full of potholes. There is no shoulder. Traffic, and the sup-
ply of water, which residents draw from wells, were other concerns residents raised. One speaker said that residents have had to redrill their wells because there isn’t enough water. However, people who had benefited from the church’s Act Of Kindness program praised the Seventh Day Adven-
tists. Pastor David Jameson explained that AOK began because “we felt the church needs to be involved in extreme generosity.” The property is surrounded by rural residences, and light manufacturing plants, auto and RV sales, and the Hilltop Café are situated close by.

Lost hikers located A RCMP helicopter quickly located two young women who got lost while hiking in Golden Ears Provincial Park, near Maple Ridge, on Thursday. The women — an 18-year-old from Langley and a 19-year-old from Mission — used a cell phone to call for help around 9:30 p.m., after they were unable to find a way back to the parking lot. Ridge Meadows RCMP and Ridge Meadows Search and Rescue volunteers set up a command post at the entrance to the UBC Research Forest, at the north end of 232 Street. Air One was called and the lost women were spotted by the pilot shortly after he flew over the area. Search and rescue volunteers were directed to their location and led the women out of the forest. “The girls, who are not experienced hikers, obviously did their homework and took all hiking essentials,” said Sgt. Dale Somerville. The women had water, food, other clothing and a cell phone.

Township to install electric vehicle chargers
MIRANDA GATHERCOLE Times Reporter
Driving an electric car in Langley will soon be much more convenient for motorists. In just a few months, the Township will begin installing six new electric vehicle charging stations at five different locations — two at the civic facility (one public and one for staff and fleets), one at the operations centre for fleet vehicles, one at W.C. Blair Recreation Centre for public use, one at Walnut Grove Recreation Centre for public use and one at the Langley Events Centre for public use. The stations are being funded in part by the Community Charging Infrastructure Fund, which is providing up to 75 per cent of the cost (with a maximum of $4,000 per station) to install 570 stations across the province by March 31, 2013. The Township will pay $39,850 of the $63,850 total for its six stations. “This is something that the Township sees as supporting our official community plan to foster alternative energy use and also objectives within our sustainability charter,� said Ryan Schmidt, environmental co-ordinator with the Township of Langley. “That’s one of the reasons why we are proceeding, another reason is transportation-related emissions in the Township are the highest out of any source — 600,000 tons of carbon dioxide in a year. That’s about $250 million a year spent in fuel, which is about $2,500 per resident in the
Township of Langley,� he said. “We see this an an important step in the transition away from fossil fuel based energy for transportation.� The Level 2 charging stations will all be located near the main entrances to the facilities and the parking stalls will be dedicated to plug-in electric vehicles. Only one vehicle can be charged at a time and it will take anywhere from six to eight hours for a full

charge if the car is completely empty. Doing a quick charge for one and a half or two hours can give a 25 per cent top-up, which allows about 30 km of driving, Schmidt said. This is just the beginning of Metro Vancouver’s plan to create a regional network of electric vehicle charging stations across the Lower Mainland. According to the Community Energy Association, by 2020 there will be 10,000 to 20,000 plug-in electric vehicles across Metro Vancouver and 130,000 by 2030. Other municipalities such
as Vancouver and Surrey have already had stations installed. “Electric vehicles are coming,� Schmidt said. “It’s a slow market penetration for them, but this project that the province is leading I think will help the uptake. It’s that rising anxiety that we need to address. People are worried about being stuck out and about without a charge. I think the presence of electric vehicle charging stations throughout Metro and throughout the province will help that.� The stations will also help to change attitudes about driving and make a difference in our environmental footprint, Schmidt said. In 2007, 135 million trips were made in the Township of Langley, with 114 million in personal vehicles, three million via transit, 12 million by walking trips, one and a half million through cycling trips and four and a half million were in commercial vehicles. “If we’re going to address transportation-related emission, we need to be looking at alternative technology in vehicles and getting people out of them altogether and on to bicycles or transit or other forms of transportation,� Schmidt said. “Electric vehicles are not really the silver bullet in addressing transportation admissions, but they are seen as a part of the solution. “There could be other technologies and other modes of transportation that are better or come along, and that’s great, too. To address and solve this issue we are going to need various solutions.�

Environment Minister Terry Lake says B.C. may pursue the idea of a per barrel levy on oil that would flow through a twinned Kinder Morgan pipeline at upcoming regulatory hearings into the project’s business terms. He said money raised from a levy on the oil could fund a muchenhanced oil spill prevention and response system. “I’ve asked staff in our ministry and in energy to take a look at this,” Lake said in an interview. “We want to make sure if there’s a role for us, we look at that. We haven’t landed on that decision yet.” Those National Energy Board hearings into Kinder Morgan’s proposed rate structure with its customers would happen relatively soon – perhaps starting early next year – and are different from separate hearings on the actual pipeline twinning project, which are at least two years away following a formal application. Federal NDP MPs said in June they will intervene in the upcoming hearings, and raised the idea of asking the NEB to add a surcharge to the rates oil shippers pay Kinder Morgan to generate emergency response funds or perhaps to raise money to benefit First Nations. Lake noted Washington State already has a levy for emergency response, collected on each barrel Kinder Morgan ships through a spur pipeline from Abbotsford to U.S. refineries.
He stressed the concept of a safety fund is separate from the idea of a legacy fund that brings B.C. more of the benefits that accrue from allowing the export of heavy oil through the province. Premier Christy Clark has said benefits sharing with B.C. is one of five preconditions for the province to consider any new heavy oil pipeline — either Enbridge’s Northern Gateway line or Kinder Morgan’s twinning. Alberta Premier Alison Redford said her province won’t share oil royalties with B.C. But Alberta’s Opposition leader suggested B.C. be compensated through a different mechanism, such as a $5 toll on each barrel of oil that moves through the pipeline. A $5 toll on the 525,000 barrels that would flow daily through Enbridge’s pipeline would generate close to $1 billion a year. The same rate charged on Kinder Morgan’s post-expansion Trans Mountain pipeline, which would move 750,000 barrels daily, would raise close to $1.4 billion annually. Currently,Trans Mountain moves 300,000 barrels a day. Lake said it’s not yet clear if B.C. can participate in the first round of NEB hearings. “If there’s some way we can participate in a meaningful way that protects B.C.’s interests, we look forward to doing that.” The existing Kinder Morgan pipeline traverses North Langley, including many urban areas in Walnut Grove.

B.C. unprepared for oil spills, provincial report says JEFF NAGEL Black Press
The province’s own assessment that B.C. is underprepared to prevent and clean up oil spills has handed fresh ammunition to opponents of new pipelines and the tankers now moving through Burrard Inlet. The 52-page technical report, released on July 23 as the government laid out its demands for improved safety and a bigger share of benefits, raises multiple concerns about the risks and procedures already used to export Alberta oil via Kinder Morgan’s existing Trans Mountain pipeline through the Lower Mainland. Among the findings: ❒ U.S. authorities require oil-laden tankers sailing east of Port Angeles to have escort tugs with them, while that’s voluntary for tankers in much of B.C. waters outside Vancouver harbour. ❒ B.C. fails to match requirements by Washington State requiring an emergency tug be on standby on the sea
route. ❒ Washington bans Suezmax tankers, which carry 800,000 to one million barrels, from its inner waters but Port Metro Vancouver has said that tanker size could be allowed in Vancouver harbour if the Second Narrows is dredged. ❒ Alaska has far tougher spill response rules, requiring industry-funded emergency responders be able to handle a 300,000 barrel spill, compared to just 70,000 barrels in B.C., before international aid is invoked. B.C. crews would be “completely overwhelmed” by a 260,000-barrel Exxon Valdez-sized spill. The report warns the current spill response capacity “appears to be insufficient” to handle the existing tanker shipments of oil from the Trans Mountain pipeline even if neither its expansion nor the new Enbridge pipeline proceed. “Increasing this threshold is critical,” the report said of the 70,000-barrel response capability. It also noted cleanup
costs exceeding $1.3 billion may not be covered by insurance or industry funds and fall on taxpayers and others. “Canada has no plan in place to cover the excess costs of a major spill,” it says. No provision is made to deal with oiled wildlife, it says, and there’s no mechanism to make use of volunteers. It also says the capacity to clean oiled shoreline should be boosted from the current 500 metres of shore per day. “Exxon Valdez impacted 2,000 kilometres of shoreline. At 500 metres per day, a similar spill occurring in B.C. would require a 10-year cleanup.” Karen Wristen, executive director of the Living Oceans Society, said the improvements flagged in the report must be made regardless of whether new pipelines are approved. She noted some tankers leaving Kinder Morgan’s Burnaby terminal are laden with conventional oil but others increasingly carry heavy oil sands bitumen, which she
said increases the risk of a pipeline rupture on land and vastly increases the damage if a tanker spills at sea. “We don’t know from tanker to tanker going through a heavily populated area what the risk is,” Wristen said. “There is no spill response for a bitumen spill. It’s going to the bottom.” The provincial report also raises bitumen as an issue, noting it is more likely to sink and presents higher environmental risks and a more difficult cleanup if spilled. “It is possible that the capacity that exists for crude oil spills — from training to equipment — may not be appropriate for bitumen,” the report said. “Thus, a major gap may likely exist for all current and future bitumen shipments taking place on Canada’s west coast.” The provincial report notes oil shipping safety has improved and spills have become rarer worldwide. Belcarra Mayor Ralph Drew, a member of Metro Vancouver’s port
cities committee, said the deficiencies flagged in the provincial report deserve “serious examination” and added the challenge now is get-
ting Ottawa to implement them. “It is clear even from this technical report that Canada falls short,” said UBC political science
professor Michael Byers. “Not only is the current capacity insufficient in the future, it already is insufficient and needs to be addressed.”

School kits help kids in need It’s back to school shopping time for thousands of Langley students, but Ten Thousand Villages Langley is once again collecting supplies for school kits destined for children whose lives have been interrupted by war, disaster and poverty. Organized by its parent company, Mennonite Central Committee (MCC), each kit contains four notebooks, four unsharpened pencils, ruler, large eraser and a package of 12 coloured pencils. These supplies are packed in hand-sewn fabric bags and distributed by MCC partner agencies in schools and orphanages
in Afghanistan, Jordan, Kenya, Ukraine and many other countries. More than 117,000 school kits were distributed last year. “It is extremely rewarding to be part of a project that brings happiness, hope and encouragement to so many children and their families,” said Olga Nickel, who manages the Ten Thousand Villages store at 20525 Fraser Hwy. in Langley, where supplies can be dropped off. “In some countries children are not allowed to attend classes without school supplies and a MCC school kit makes it possible for them to go to school. Our
efforts to buy a few extra school supplies can make such a big difference in the lives of children.” Supporting education and empowering families is in keeping with the goals and objectives of Ten Thousand Villages, a fair trade organization which purchases products from more than 130 artisan groups in over 35 countries, giving them fair value for their work. MCC is the relief, development and service arm of Mennonite and Brethren in Christ churches in Canada and the U.S. Visit mcccanada.ca/kits/school/ or call 888 622-6337.

Vancouver works with developers to create Downtown South
Revitalizing the Granville Loops The City of Vancouver has been working with developers such as Cressey Development to re-imagine the area around the Granville Street onramps into a thriving neighbourhood they call Downtown South. With plans for new roadways, biking and walking access to the Stanley Park SeaWall and False Creek waterfront and plenty of commercial space, the community will be the perfect place to purchase a home. “It’s all that Downtown South has to offer,” says Cressey Development Manager David Evans. “There’s entertainment, shopping, the beach, the Seawall ... It provides access to all the amenities.”
Cressey is proud to be a part of the area with Maddox, a 32-storey condominium tower located on Howe and Drake streets. The pedestrian-friendly aspect of the community is particularly important, Evans says. “One of its biggest strengths is access,” he says. With Granville Island, Yaletown and Robson Street within easy reach, buyers who purchase in the area will find everything they could possibly imagine close by. Future projects include a grocery store, the opportunity for vendors such as food carts and sidewalk extensions for outdoor cafes and restaurant patios.
evening at home, no matter what the weather is doing outside. The 10-foot ceilings in some homes add to the considerable sense of space that is inherent in the living areas, which offer plenty of room for entertaining. Lakewood prides itself on quality workmanship and attention to detail, and this is certainly apparent at One92.
There will be 69 homes in the project, ranging from 474 to 1,283 square feet. “There’s something for everybody,” says sales manager Rob Carlsen. “The response has been fantastic.” With features like nine or 10-foot ceilings (depending on where in the building your home is), a spacious walk-in shower in the ensuite and lush landscaping outside, Salix is a truly beautiful development. Many of the homes have views of Mount Baker or the surrounding Clayton Heights area. Building on the popularity of Woodbridge’s Willow Grand development, “we were able to listen to purchasers’ needs and wants,” says Carlsen. “It genuinely makes me excited that we covered a lot of the bases that purchasers were looking for.”
‘Something for everybody’
No trouble finding a home in Clayton Heights by Kerry Vital
Clayton Heights is a rapidly growing community on the border of Surrey and Langley. Due to its proximity to both cities as well as Cloverdale, it is perfectly situated to take advantage of every amenity that the Lower Mainland has to offer. Less than an hour from the Vancouver International Airport and less than half an hour from the U.S. border, Clayton Heights offers education, recreation, shopping and dining all within a few minutes. Woodbridge Homes’ La Rue La Rue is an intimate community of 49 two- to four-bedroom townhomes. With beautiful details like nine-foot ceilings on the main floor and stainlesssteel appliances, there is much to love at La Rue. With its tagline of “the street you want to live on”, La Rue is proving very popular with people of all demographics. “La Rue offers so many things,” says sales manager Andrea Castro. “I love this product.” The kitchens are particularly beautiful, with ceramic tile backsplashes and stone countertops that are perfectly complemented by the chic wood laminate flooring throughout the main living areas and entrances. Conveniently located close to several
schools, parks and recreation, Castro says that La Rue is great for young families. “Clayton offers so many things for families,” she says, adding “these are a different style of home. You’re close to everything, but you’re also quiet and away from all the busy-ness.” Lakewood’s One92 Lakewood has brought a collection of carriage homes, condominiums and townhomes to Clayton Heights, in a variety of floorplans. With 72 homes in the project, oversized windows, sleek laminate flooring and amazing open-plan kitchens are just some of the amazing features. A designer tile backsplash is complemented by the under-cabinet lighting and contemporary shaker-style cabinetry and gorgeous quartz countertops. A special feature of the homes is the electric fireplace with mood-adjustable accent lighting. It is perfect for curling up with a book or enjoying a romantic
Woodbridge Homes’ Salix Woodbridge continues with its mastery of the Clayton Heights area with Salix, a collection of one-, twoand three-bedroom condominiums. The open-plan layouts and three interior schemes (Craftsman Traditional, Casual Contemporary and Modern Chic) available at Salix make for a truly stunning mix of residences.
“
Clayton offers so many things for families,” says La Rue sales manager Andrea Castro.

Summer Maintenance of Rural Boulevards and Ditches The Township of Langley uses three full-time and one seasonal roadside grass mower for ditch mowing. This equipment has predetermined routes or an assigned area to follow. If the equipment is pulled away to do a specific request, it only lengthens the time it takes to fully complete all the rural boulevards and ditches. If you have a request for mowing or brushwhacking, we ask that you be patient as we try to fit the work schedule in as efficiently as possible. The Township, along with Provincial and Federal agencies, has classified open channel water systems into three categories: Class A ditches are fish bearing and Class B ditches are fish habitat. Both of these categories require formal approval before any work can be completed. Class C ditches are deemed to have no fish or fish habitat issues whatsoever and only require notification for work to take place. How or when a ditch is cleaned depends on its classification. Thank you for your understanding as we operate under these requirements. Engineering Division 604.532.7300

Aldergrove trolley system gains ally Owner and CEO of Vancouver Trolley Company lending his experience, expertise to Aldergrove project KURT LANGMANN Black Press
The planned introduction of commuter trolley service for the Aldergrove area has gained a new ally. Jim Storie, the owner and CEO of the Vancouver Trolley Company, has agreed to come out to Aldergrove this week to lend his experience and expertise to the Aldergrove trolley project. Storie is a well known and respected expert on trolleys and operations. The Aldergrove Trolley Committee purchased a 1980s model trolley last month and will be installing a new engine powered by propane, to replace the older and dirtier diesel engine.
The trolley will serve as a “feeder” service to the existing TransLink and BC Transit buses which connect downtown Aldergrove to Langley and Abbotsford. The proposed trolley service will provide connections to the north and south sides of Aldergrove which currently are not served by transit buses. These trolley links will include Gloucester Industrial Estates, which employs thousands on the north side of Aldergrove. submitted photo It will also provide Aldergrove acquired this 1988 trolley and it will be equipped with a propane connections for persons of engine prior to its planned commuter service launch on Labour Day. all ages who reside in the rural areas of both north and south Aldergrove.

Discharge of Firearms Regulation Bylaw 1991 No. 3001 Properties that receive municipal garbage collection will soon find a sad red face sticker asking “Where’s your Green Can today?” if no Green Can is set out on collection day. This sticker is another reminder to start using the Green Can program and remove food scraps from the garbage, as per bylaw No.4845. All food scraps, bones, paper towels, napkins, and soiled paper are to go into Green Cans. Everyone’s participation is an important step towards reducing garbage destined for the landfill.

responsibility for ongoing operations. Working group members Lynne Vanlaarhoven, Anna Nosek and Vicki Austad have been busy reviewing where the project sits and doing what is necessary to move it along. They are also pleased with Jim Storie’s offer of advice and assistance. “We are excited at the prospect of working with someone who has so much to offer us,” says Lynne VanLaarhoven. “This is the kind of opportunity that all start-ups can only hope for.” A project like this is the result of community energy and commitment. The members of the working group say they are pleased to work with everyone in the community until the next general meeting scheduled on or about Sept. 6, when a board of directors will be elected for the Aldergrove Trolley Company’s non-profit society.

Candy store like ‘taking a stroll back in time’ People always have money for a feel-good treat NATASHA JONES Times Reporter
Oh, what stickysweet nostalgia! Walk through the door of Sticky’s Candy and you are taking a stroll back in time, though for many of the new sweet shop’s clientele, so young are they that nostalgia is a feeling that only happens to other people. Sticky’s Candy is located at 20464 Fraser Hwy., in the one-way section that is full of nostalgia, if only for old-timers to recall what stores were previously located there. Sticky’s is run by Robin and Beverly Burnette who opened the Langley City store on March 1, one year after opening the first Sticky’s in Chilliwack. A third shop will open in Maple Ridge
on March 1, 2013. With a shaky economy, there’s no better time to open a sweet shop. “It’s a growing business,” said Robin Burnette. “People always have $5 to $10 for a feel-good treat.” He understands that for so many of his customers, the majority of whom are females in the 13 to 90 age bracket, the store brings back many memories, good memories, especially when the economy is struggling. In the centre of the store are three racks loaded with ‘retro’ candy such as flying saucers, Jolly Rancher, various bubblegum, Hello Kitty and Air Heads, and in the corner near the back of the store are retro
lunch boxes, $12.99 reproductions made in the U.S. Take your time. The assortment of choices is dizzying. Along the wall on the right hand side are 50 different flavours of salt water taffy, made by Taffy Town, the oldest taffy manufacturer in the world, Burnette says. Costing quite a bit less than you would pay at the cinema, there are theatre boxes stuffed with Runts, Starburst, Bottle Caps Dots, Skillets, Hot Tamales, Angry Birds and so on.
In a cooler at the back is a selection of Pop Shoppe flavours, and UK-made cans of cherry cola and vanilla cola. Natasha JONES/Langley Times There are Robin Burnette owns Sticky’s Candy with his wife, Beverly.

The Working While on Claim pilot is one of many recent improvements the Ottawa has made to the EI program. In the spring, the government announced several targeted, common-sense changes to encourage Canadians to stay active in the job market and to remove disincentives to work. These changes include better connecting Canadians to available opportunities in their local area, clarifying their responsibilities while collecting EI, and establishing a new pan-Canadian approach for calculating EI benefits so that those living in regions with comparable labour market conditions receive similar benefits.

Members of the Langley Blaze celebrate after their 6-1 victory on Monday over the Kamloops Sun Devils to capture the B.C. senior men’s baseball provincial championship at Prince George’s Citizen Field. With the victory, the Blaze earned the right to represent B.C. at the 2013 Baseball Canada senior championships.

Not even getting no-hit in their third game could slow down the Langley Blaze. The Blaze lost 8-0 in that contest to the Nanaimo Coalminers and one more loss would have eliminated the team from the senior men’s B.C. provincial baseball championships over the weekend at Prince George’s Citizen Park. “We just laughed if off,” said Blaze first baseman Scott
Webster. “I don’t know of too many teams that get no-hit and come back to win (provincials).” But the Blaze did just that. The team doubled up the host team from Prince George 6-3 in the quarterfinals and then exacted a measure of revenge, defeating Nanaimo 5-1 in the semifinals. Langley then wrapped up the provincial title with a 6-1 victory over the Kamloops Sun Devils on Monday, earning a spot at the 2013 Canadian senior men’s national championships in Windsor, Ont. The Blaze received a two-hit gem by pitcher Corey Parsons. Webster, who hit three
home runs in the tournament was named most valuable player. “It was a team effort,” he said.“It could have gone to anyone.” The Blaze finished the sixgame tournament with nine home runs.” “We came alive,” Webster said.“And it was a nice hitter’s park.” In Langley’s first two games, they edged Kelowna 8-7 in extra innings and then shut out Trail 7-0 in game two. “We basically pulled through with some timely hitting and good pitching,” said coach Dave Diachuk, adding the team was not at 100 per cent because of injuries.
“We battled through inning by inning and pitch by pitch and got things done.” “But this was our goal from day one and we put together a team we though could do it.,” As for the play of his MVP, Diachuk said Webster was a worthy selection. Webster hit .444 (8-for-18) with six RBIs. “He sends shivers down the spine of our opposition because every time he swings the bat, they hold their breath,” Diachuk said. The Blaze, made up of local players home for the summer from their collegiate teams, wrap up the season with the Grand Forks International Tournament from Aug. 29 to Sept. 3.
When the time came to pick a university, it was a fairly easy decision for Morgan Mark. Having spent lots of time in Hawaii for family vacations, Mark chose to attend the University of Hawaii at Manao. “I have a lot of happy memories from there,” she said. “I feel at home when I am there (so) it is not going away from home too much.” The 18-year-old, who graduated from Walnut Grove Secondary in June, will swim for the Rainbow Wahine. She had considered the University of New Mexico, but ultimately chose Hawaii. Mark is excited — and Morgan nervous — for what awaits, Mark but is ready for the challenges and rigors of competing at the university level. She began swimming at age seven, first with a club in Cloverdale, and then with the Langley Olympians Swim Club when the family moved to Langley. Joining the Olympians was one of the catalysts of her swim career. “It was huge and a shock to me,” she said about the increased time requirements that an elite program such as this required. “That was a really good foundation for the start of my swimming career. “It taught me mental toughness, mental strength.” She switched to UBC’s age group international program two years ago under coach Tom Rushton, which required not only the commute to Vancouver for training, but daily five-hour sessions. “That opened a lot more doors,” she explained in regards to competing internationally and just seeing a different type of training. Mark also played water polo and eight years of karate growing up. The latter “taught me a lot of discipline and taught me to focus,” she said. continued, PAGE 39

A dominant defensive performance and an opportunistic offence led the Langley Rams to a season-opening victory. The Rams capitalized on eight Okanagan Sun turnovers — turning those into 35 points — as they routed the host team 42-14 on Saturday at the Apple Bowl in Kelowna in the season opener for the B.C. Junior Football Conference. “Our defence definitely shone in the game,” said Langley coach Jeff Alamolhoda. “We relied on them to get some turnovers and big plays for us and they came through.” The offence was also efficient in turning those turnovers into points as well as sustaining some long-scoring drives, he added. “The playmakers made plays for us.” Following back-toback fumbles by Sun quarterback Cam Bedore on first quarter drives — caused by hits from Adam Konar and Evan Foster, respectively, with Alex Agnoletto and Arie Nakagawa recovering the loose pigskin — running back Daniel Xavier scored on a pair of short touchdown runs less than a minute apart. Quarterback Greg Bowcott then scored

Konar finished with 32 defensive points, the fourth-highest in a single game in league history. The outside linebacker had two interceptions and two forced fumbles, two sacks and four tackles. “He definitely showed what he can do and what his abilities are,” Alamolhoda said.

Thunder on verge of sweep With the thunder booming outside, the Langley Thunder were making their noise inside at the Langley Events Centre. The senior A men’s lacrosse team used a 10-6 victory in game
three on Tuesday to take a huge 3-0 lead in the best-of-seven Western Lacrosse Association semifinal series over the Burnaby Lakers. It was a wire-towire victory for the
Thunder who never trailed in the contest. Kerry Susheski opened the scoring 5:11 into the game and then Lewis Ratcliff and Athan Iannucci scored 47 seconds apart later in the period.
Burnaby scored once in between those two goals. The Lakers did pull within a goal early in the second, but Langley responded with five of the next seven goals to lead 8-4 after 40 minutes. Tor Reinholdt scored a pair and Shayne Jackson had a hat trick in the second period alone. Brett Hickey and Iannucci scored in the third period before the Lakers struck for pair 18 seconds apart to round out the scoring. Brodie MacDonald stopped 37 of the 43 shots he faced. Ratcliff had four assists to go along with his goal for a five-point game while Jackson (three goals, one assist) and Iannucci (two goals,
two assists) both had four-point efforts. Ratcliff, an offseason pick-up for the Thunder, has been a key catalyst in all three games. He leads the team in post-season scoring with nine goals and eight assists in the three games so far. He scored the game winner in the dying seconds of regulation in a 9-8 game one victory last week and then had five goals in game two’s 9-6 win on Friday. Langley will go for the sweep and a spot in the championship series tonight (Thursday) at Burnaby’s Bill Copeland Arena. A loss and the teams will return to the LEC on Monday for game five.

FOULDS Francis Brian (Buck) There was only one Buck. Francis Brian (Buck) Foulds passed away peacefully at 6:10 a.m. on Monday, August 6, 2012, surrounded by his family. At 75 years of age, Buck had finally succumbed to cardiac disease, though he fought through numerous heart attacks and associated maladies with the passion of a pugilist. He was, and remains, one tough customer. Buck is survived by children Debbie, Rick, Leah, Darryl, Chris and Shane; grandchildren Melissa, Kyle, Jenny, Danica, Saige, Jeff, Tanice, Lisette, Rayne, Remi, Veronica, Atticus, Madeline and Olivia; greatgrandchildren Sydney, Jimmy and Shiloh; sisters Pat and Yvonne and many nephews and nieces. Buck was predeceased by his mom and dad and his sisters Audrey and Marilyn. He will forever be remembered for his love of his 442, the creation from the ground up of his successful garage-door company and his fondness for attaching a nickname to almost all he knew. If you knew Buck and you had a nickname, you know you were loved. Above all, Buck will be remembered for his devotion to his Gelly Bean, who left him too soon 13 years ago and with whom he resides today. A service to celebrate the life of the man with the ponytail and tough smile will be held at Newlands Golf Course, 21025 48th Ave., Langley, on Saturday, Aug. 11, beginning at noon. It will be a casual affair at which friends and family are welcome to share a story or simply sit and listen. In lieu of flowers, donations in Buck’s name to B.C. Children’s Hospital are appreciated.

Gayle had many friends and colleagues who’s lives she touched in the White Rock area; including the special relationships built over her 29 years at Coastal Insurance. She had a wonderful sense of humor and a generous heart. Her passion, her reason, her joy, was her family.
