City pays $5.5M to end deal with HeatDan KINVIGAbbotsford News

The Abbotsford Heat’s financially challenged five-season tenure in this city is coming to a close.

At a press conference on Tuesday morning at the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre (AESC), Mayor Bruce Banman announced that the City of Abbotsford will pay the Calgary Flames $5.5 million to terminate the remaining five years of the 10-year supply fee agreement signed in 2009 to bring the Flames’ American Hockey League affiliate here.

The agreement guaranteed the Heat a break-even annual budget of $5.7 million. Over the first four years of the deal, local taxpayers paid $5.24 million to cover financial shortfalls.

The contract-ending payout does not include a projected deficit of roughly $2 million for the current 2013-14 season.

Losses totalling $11 million were estimated for the final five

years of the contract.“There is absolutely no question in our minds that taking

this step with the Abbotsford Heat is the best scenario finan-cially for the city and our ratepayers,” Banman said.

“This is probably one of the most challenging decisions that council has had to make. However, this cheque is half of what the projected (supply fee) cheques would have been.”

The city said the contract buyout will be covered by 2014 operating savings and unappropriated reserves, and there will be no property tax impacts.

The Heat will depart at the conclusion of the Calder Cup playoffs. Upwards of 20 front-office staff members were in-formed Tuesday morning that June 30 will be their last day of work.

Glens Falls, New York has been recently rumoured as a des-tination for the Heat, but Flames president and CEO Ken King

said there are multiple options.“I appreciate that city administration and taxpayers stood

up to their (contractual) obligation,” King said. “And our return for that was not extending the pain or anxiety with that.That’s as good as we could do ... to essentially permit theagreement to be terminated.

“It’s not a profit centre for us. The relocation process for a team is exceedingly expensive, and it’s going to take that andmore to do it.”

As part of Tuesday’s announcement, the city unveiled a

From A1

three-pronged strategy, entitled “A New Game,” to guide the future of Abbotsford’s 7,000-seat arena.

The initiative includes establishing nam-ing rights partners and new revenue-pos-itive anchor tenants; renegotiating man-agement agreements with arena operator Global Spectrum; and improving commu-nity access to the facility for amateur sports.

The arena is also being re-branded “Abbotsford Centre.”

Banman said he’s unsure whether the city will be able to land a new hockey anchor tenant in time for the 2014-15 season.

“We would look forward to any franchise or any league that wants to have discussions ... keeping in mind that it has to be revenue-positive for the tax-payers,” he said, noting that he’s open to overtures from other AHL franchises or the Western Hockey League (major junior).

The Heat struggled to draw fans throughout their time in Abbotsford. They rank 29th out of 30 AHL teams in attendance this season with an average crowd of 3,007. That’s down from 3,778 last season.

The Heat played their final home game of the regular season on Sunday, and they will begin their playoff run next week.

“(The timing of the announcement) was not my decision, but many people felt that this was a way that Abbotsford could say goodbye and really celebrate the Heat,” said Ryan Walter, who has served as Heat president since 2010. “If you did it after the final game, they might not have an opportunity.”

Season ticket-holder Gary McCaskill, co-

chair of the Heat Booster Club, said he’s “saddened” the team is leaving.

“It’s great hockey,” he said. “There’s not a game that’s gone by ... that you couldn’t come here and watch a hockey game and not see somebody who’s going to be in the National Hockey League very soon.”

Jordan Bateman, B.C. director of the Canadian Taxpayers Federation, lauded the city’s decision to buy its way out of the Heat contract, calling the previous agree-

ment “corporate welfare for a very wealthy hockey club, the Calgary Flames.

“Abbotsford taxpayers shelled out about $12.7 million in this five-year span,” he said. “That’s a lot of cops; that’s a lot of road repairs; that’s a lot of sewer and water infrastructure that could have been built.

“It all goes back to a bad decision made by Abbotsford council to build a building this big without a proper business plan or without decent anchor tenants that could stand on their own two feet.”

Part of the Heat’s struggle to establish

themselves in Abbotsford was the fact the Flames are a division rival of the local NHL franchise, the Vancouver Canucks.

The Canucks engaged in negotiations with Abbotsford last spring after purchas-ing the AHL’s Peoria Rivermen from the St. Louis Blues, but talks broke down and they ended up moving their farm team to Utica, N.Y.

Banman said the parties “couldn’t come to an agreement that was satisfactory for

the taxpayers.” He believes that buying out of

the Heat contract is better than the deal they could have struck with the Canucks last spring.

“We’ll see what the future brings with regards to the Canucks,” he said, noting that he’s not privy to details of their agreement with Utica.

Lane Sweeting, a member of the Fraser Valley Sports and Entertainment group which op-erated the business side of the Heat on behalf of the Flames, said the demise of the Heat was due to a number of factors: the contentious Plan A referendum to approve the arena’s construc-tion; taxpayer dissatisfaction over the supply fee agreement;

the unpopularity of the Flames affiliation; the economic downturn; high travel costs; and the difficulty of marketing back-to-back home games against the same op-posing team.

“It’s obviously a disappointing day for all of us,” Sweeting said. “But by the same token, I don’t think the tide’s going to turn (for the Heat’s attendance).

“From the taxpayers’ point of view, this is probably the correct move for the city to do.”

Woman stabbed, baby takenFormer partner had child when arrested near victim’s home

Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News

Abbotsford Police arrested a 24-year-old man Monday morn-ing who allegedly stabbed his former partner multiple times and ran off with their 18-month-old baby.

Police received a 911 call at about 9 a.m. from a resi-dence in the 2700 block of Blackham Drive at Baldwin Road.

The 23-year-old female caller said she had been stabbed and her baby had been taken by the father of the child.

Const. Ian MacDonald said the man and woman had previously been in a relationship and did not live in the same residence.

Police and BC Ambulance crews arrived, and the woman was

treated for multiple stab wounds and then taken to hospital by air ambulance from a field behind Abbotsford Recreation Centre.

MacDonald said police were about to issue an amber alert for the missing child, when of-ficers located the suspect, with the unharmed baby, at 9:40 a.m.

in the backyard of a home on Marcliffe Place, not far from the stabbing.

The man was arrest-ed without further incident.

MacDonald said police are con-sidering recommending charges of aggravated assault, assault with a weapon, or even attempt-ed murder.

He said the victim suffered “pretty significant injuries,” but her current condition is not known.

Fire destroys log homeFirefighters have to truck in water to mountain residence

Fire destroyed a log home at the top of Sumas Mountain early Saturday morning.

Crews from Abbotsford Fire Rescue Service (AFRS) were called to the home on Taggart Road at about 12:30 a.m. When they arrived, the resi-

dence was fully engulfed in flames and the fire was extending into an adja-

cent forested area.Crews quickly brought the fire

under control, but the house was a total loss with damage estimated at

$400,000.Assistant Fire Chief Dave Rivett said the blaze

was difficult to fight because there was no water in the area and it had to be shuttled in with tankers.

The residents were not home at the time. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

This log home on Sumas Mountain was virtually destroyed in an early Saturday morning blaze that was difficult to fight due to a lack of water.

Manslaughter sentencing adjourned until June 26Crown asks for more time to prepare

Vikki HOPESAbbotsford News

An Abbotsford man who was due to be sen-tenced Friday (April 11) on a manslaughter con-viction had his hearing adjourned until June 26 after Crown lawyers said they had been caught by surprise by points the defence intended to argue.

Lawyer Rob Mcgowan told Justice Carol Ross in B.C. Supreme Court in Vancouver that the Crown planned to recommend that Robert McMath, 69, receive the mandatory minimum sentence of four years for manslaughter “where a firearm is used in the commission of the offence.”

Conviction for such an offence can range from four years to life in prison.

Mcgowan said defence lawyers indicated only on Wednesday, April 9 that they would be seek-ing a sentence of less than four years, and they would cite 15 prior court cases to support their argument that the mandatory minimum was not applicable in McMath’s situation.

The index of those cases was not presented to Crown until the day before the sentencing hear-ing, Mcgowan said, leaving prosecutors no time to prepare counter arguments.

Ross agreed with the Crown’s request to ad-journ the sentencing hearing, although she said she was reluctant to do so, especially when about a dozen of McMath’s family members were in the courtroom supporting him and awaiting a decision.

She said defence would be seeking a sen-tence of “substantially less” than the mandatory minimum, and it was important that both sides be given an equal opportunity to argue all the points.

McMath was initially charged with second-degree murder in connection to the shooting death of his estranged wife, Janice, 64, but was found guilty in December of the lesser charge of manslaughter.

At that time, Ross ruled that McMath acciden-tally shot Janice twice in the chest, resulting in her death in hospital nine days later on June 7, 2008.

McMath had testified at his trial that he and Janice were talking in a barn on the family prop-erty on McMath Street and he was holding a .32 Remington rifle that he had put outside because of coyotes that had been attacking and killing his chickens.

He said the gun accidentally discharged when his arthritic knee gave out and he stumbled, and it went off a second time when he fell.

The Crown had argued that McMath intention-ally shot Janice to prevent her from going after certain assets – including the farm property, which had been in his family for generations – in their divorce.

Ross ruled that McMath was negligent in the way he stored the gun, and found him guilty of manslaughter. If he had been convicted of second-degree murder, he would have received an automatic life sentence.

Published and printed by Black Press Limited 34375 Gladys Avenue, Abbotsford

It’s the middle of April, and a month

into spring, yet the few glorious days we’ve enjoyed seem invariably preced-ed and followed by cool temperatures.

A week ago, the sky above the horse pasture was filled with swallows. A day later there was frost on the barn roof and the warmth was gone, as were the birds. Either they continued north in search of better weather, or more likely returned to balmier south-ern climes.

The 20 or so showy wood ducks that normally arrive on my pond around March 1 are still absent in numbers. One pair arrived a week ago, four more on Sunday.

But what makes me even more con-vinced, despite the calendar attesting otherwise, that winter has yet to leave is the number of Christmas trees still being dumped on the roadsides of Sumas Mountain.

Surely those who think littering is fine if it’s biodegradable haven’t had the trees adorning their living rooms all this time! So why, in the intervening weeks between the end of December and now, do they suddenly think it’s acceptable to clean up their backyards by messing up the backyards of my neighbours?

To add to their stupidity, with the price of gas hitting $1.39, it probably costs more to drive up the mountain to dump their tree than it would to take it to the city’s composting depot. In fact, city hall often provides free passes to the Gladwin Road facility.

And speaking of recycling, the centre at Vye and Riverside charges nothing to take old TVs; a cheaper, easier and

less unsightly option than the one chosen by a litterer who dumped an old set, along with piles of other crap, along the side of Straiton Road.

It’s frustrating when hauling a trailer load of waste to be recycled that I’m passed, going the other way, by a shiny SUV towing a similarly loaded trailer

with garbage bags and branches soon to be tossed onto the road shoulder.

Guess it didn’t occur to the dumper that plastic bags don’t biodegrade – at least not in our lifetime.

The biggest folly in all of this of

course, is that each of us already paysto have our garbage picked up at thecurb, so why not make the effort to getyour trash out on the street in time forpickup?

Thinking that it’s free to litter is an-other mindless assumption. City crewswill have to pick up the roadside mess,at a cost that is eventually recoupedfrom taxes.

To be fair, however, I should point outthat not all rural folk are holier thanthou. There is an appalling amountof litter around the community mail-boxes at my corner.

Few of us appreciate all the junk mailwe receive, but that’s still no excuse totoss it to the ground, or adorn the topof the boxes with it.

It isn’t the mail lady’s job to pick itup, nor is it mine.

As noted, we all get (and pay for)recycling pickup. Take the junk home,and put it in your blue bag.

New West found solutionIn regards to James

Breckenridge’s let-ter concerning Abbotsford’s home-less population.

The city of New Westminster has ob-viously found the template for solv-ing some of the na-tion’s greatest prob-lems of homeless-ness, mental illness and addiction.

They found that the actual solution is to give them a job and a place to live, and it’s proven to be cost ef-

fective as well. Go figure!U n f o r t u n a t e l y ,

Abbotsford and other communities across the nation are still taking the old school approach on dealing with our challenged society.

New Westminster’s approach should be commended and con-sidered a serious al-ternative to tending those who count on us, instead of treating them punitively.

Art Green, Hope

Abbotsford’s Jacob Hoggard, the front man for the massively popular band, Hedley, gives it his all during Saturday night’s show in Abbotsford. Visit abbynews.com for a full review and video, and our Facebook page.

JOHN MORROW Abbotsford News

More than 6,000 fans crowded into the Abbotsford Entertainment and Sports Centre for Saturday’s Hedley concert.

The band – Jacob Hoggard, guitarist Dave Rosin, bass-ist Tommy Mac and drummer Chris Crippin, opened with their signature boisterous charm,

and instantly had the crowd swaying and singing along to their hit Anything.

The special effects, including neon-lit glass, pulsing strobe lights and jet streams of fog and smoke didn’t deter from the four friends onstage hav-ing fun.

He orchestrated the throngs

of fans to wave and clap, or echo his lyrics; so classic ballads like One Life filled the stadium like one reverberating voice. Hoggard boasted his wide range of musical skills throughout the night by taking to the piano for calmer melodies like All the Way, only to leave the keys to pound away on nearby drums.

Heritage focus group on Sumas

Clay Products

The Sumas Clay Products Ltd. Site will be up for discussion on April 22, with an opportunity to provide input on preservation and a future direc-tion for the company.

The discussion will be held on April 22, at 7 p.m., at The Reach Gallery Museum.

Sumas Clay Products Ltd. has a long history in Abbotsford, starting in 1913. It has operated under several owners and names over the past 100 years.

In 1978 Flex-Lox Industries, which owned the operation at Kilgard, closed the clay plant, focus-ing instead on the production of plastic pipe and pipe fittings.

The move put many of the Sumas First Nations out of work so the band incorporated as Sumas Clay Products and purchased the clay plant to provide economic stability for its people. The plant was in disrepair and the first few years the Band struggled with financial problems.

For several years sales improved and the com-pany prospered but the site’s future is now in question.

Annie Silver, a Sumas First Nations band mem-ber and business administration student, will facilitate the evening. Please join the discussion to provide input into the preservation of an im-portant heritage site and the future of the opera-tion that will drive its preservation.

For more information contact Annie at [email protected]. To pre-register email [email protected].

This shop was involved in custom fabrication, complete 4x4 rebuilds, and sales of off-road related products. This would prepare him for his current position as Manager for Custom Truck Parts, one of the largest accessory warehouses in Canada.Ian started his journalism career in the late 1090s with a column in a national magazine for automotive enthusiasts. In the spring of 2005 Ian was approached by a local news outlet to write a weekly column. Wilderness exploring, fi shing and four wheeling have been his passion since he was a teenager.Some memorable moments in Ian’s career are fl ying in by hto the famous Rubicon Trail in Northern California and driving a 2007 Jeep Wrangler out of the backwoods, up a waterfall and out of the trail to Lake Tahoe.

Abbotsford police officers’ efforts recognizedAn Abbotsford po-

lice officer has been named an “All Star” with Alexa’s Team,

consisting of RCMP and municipal of-ficers committed to reducing the number

of impaired-driving deaths in B.C.

Const. Pat Kelly was among 313 officers

who formed the 2013 Alexa’s Team and were honoured at re-cent events in Surrey,

Greater Victoria, Kelowna and Prince George.

Alexa’s Team is

named for Alexa Middelaer, who was killed by a drunk driv-er in 2008 when she was four years old.

In 2010, the M i d d e l a e r family chal-lenged police departments, the Ministry of Justice and Attorney General of B.C. to reduce the number of deaths caused by im-paired driving by 35 per cent by the year 2013.

That goal was sur-passed, when a 52 per cent decrease was noted as of February 2014. Alexa’s Team members were re-sponsible for almost 50 per cent of the impaired-driving en-

forcement in B.C. in2013, according to amedia release.

The team includ-ed eight officers in

A b b o t s f o r d ,who removed a total of 293 im-paired driversfrom the road.

In addition toKelly, these of-ficers, all con-stables with the AbbotsfordP o l i c e

Department, wereJohn Courtney, ChrisFroese, Dan Baldinger,John Davidson, DonRidder, Ken Wilsonand Renae Williams.

“All Star” members are the top impaired-driving investigatorsin the province. Eachtook at least 34 crimi-nally impaired driversoff the road in 2013.

Decor for the younger set

By Kerry Vital

If you’re interior design-inclined, one of the fun parts of raising a child can be decorating their room, whether it’s designing their nursery or re-decorating a room to suit an older kid who has outgrown their babyish tastes. However, if trendy home decor isn’t high on your priority list, it can be hard to know where to start.

“You want timeless pieces that can grow with the child,”

Design for a nursery or child’s room has come a long way since blue for boys and pink for girls.

Old is new again with Best Builders’ 70s-style project that has more than a touch of retro fl air. In partnership with Sarah Gallop Design Inc., Best Builders was able to give the home-owners exactly what they were looking for while sticking to budget and bringing everything in on time.

“Th e homeowner had a specifi c style in mind,” says Best

Builders owner Todd Best. “It really turned out amazing.”Best notes that the original home was very closed off , with

individual rooms instead of open space. He and his team opened up the entire main fl oor to make it more useable for the entire family.

“Now, there’s nowhere in the house that you can’t hear ‘time for dinner!’” Best says. “It’s a complete transformation.”

Th e outdoor space is one of the most spectacular things about the new home, and Best is very proud of it.

“Th e outdoor turf soccer fi eld is built to the same specifi ca-tions as the (Vancouver) Whitecaps fi eld,” he says.

Th at fi eld can also be turned into a volleyball court by fold-ing away the nets. Th ere is also an outdoor fi re pit and new tiered sun deck, among other features.

“You never have to leave the house,” says Best, adding that

the homeowner’s children come home with their friends every day and spend hours playing outside. Of course, that’s only when their parents aren’t using it themselves. Th ere is now 2,100 square feet of outdoor living space for the family to enjoy.

“We were constantly working with the homeowners,” says Best. “Our guys would be talking to them and giving them new ideas all the time.”

Other outdoor additions included new fencing, a new gate and a trellis.

Th e homeowners wanted to keep the 1970s look of the exte-rior, so Best and his team removed the old cladding, planed it and re-installed it. Th e aim was to respect the existing

Reviving the 70s with the help of Best BuildersBest Builders worked with Sarah Gallop Design Inc. to create a modernized home while still keeping the 70s style the owner wanted.

The homeowner had a specifi c style in mind when renovating his home, and Best Builders, in collaboration with Sarah Gallop Design Inc., was able to give him that with retro touches such as contrasting white and dark fl at crown cabinetry.

architecture while making it more functional and modern for the family.

“Outside, there’s nothing spectacular about it,” Best says. “Th ey wanted it to look like the other homes on the street, but inside it’s refi ned.”

Th ey kept the old fi replace and used match-ing bricks to patch where the new beams tie in, and kept many of the interior features such as the cedar panelling.

“All of the furniture was custom-built in California,” says Best. New millwork was

added, including shoe storage in an entry pony wall for extra convenience and fl at crown cabinetry that utilizes contrasting white and dark fi nishes.

Th e master bedroom was moved downstairs and a spa-like ensuite was added, and the kitchen was moved from the centre of the home to the rear wall to create a great room-kitchen combination. A live edge wood bar top is included on the kitchen island for an extra touch of vintage style.

Th e redesigned family room is now the favoured place for the whole family

to spend time together, whether it’s doing homework or watching a movie by the fi re.

“Family comes fi rst to the homeowner,” says Best. “It’s been a very well-received project.”

Th e home has been named a fi nalist in three categories at the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association Ova-tion Awards, for Best Kitchen and Greatroom Renovation, Best Renovation: $300,000 to $499,999 and Best Outdoor Living Space: New or Renovated. Th e winners will be named on April 26.

“We have a very strong team,” says Best. “We guarantee qual-ity and take great pride in our fi nishing.”

Newly renovated home includes professional-quality soccer pitch in yard

The soccer pitch was built to the same specifi cations as the Vancouver Whitecaps fi eld, above, while the exterior, far left, was rebuilt to fi t in with the surrounding neighbourhood. Cedar panelling, left, was retained as another 70s-style feature.

says Jacqueline De’Ath, owner and designer at Homeworks Etc. Designs, noting the example of a changing table that converts to a dresser once the child is no longer in diapers.

Many cribs will convert into a toddler bed, and a well-chosen room theme can continue to be appropriate for many years.

“I see a lot of repurposing furniture,” says De’Ath. “You can take an end table and make it into a nightstand. Paint it a bright colour to add a pop to the room.”

Textiles such as sheets and pillows are another way to add interest to a room. Prints such as triangles, circles and plus signs are all

popular right now.“People are introducing metallics,” says

De’Ath. “Th e easiest way is through a wall decal, lamps or other light fi xtures.”

Like many other rooms, grey is a big colour for nurseries and kid’s bedrooms for 2014.

“It’s popular in all tones,” says De’Ath.Easy additions to spice up a nursery or

children’s room include personalized decor such as wooden letters spelling out their name.

“Kids love to see their names,” says De’Ath.Keeping things organized, especially when

there’s a baby around, is extremely important. Having everything to hand with wall hooks and other storage solutions can save you

Animals never go out of style when it comes to nursery decor

Animals are still a popular theme for nurseries and children’s bedrooms, no matter the gender. Making sure the room is functional on top of being cute and comfortable is important.

valuable seconds.As for themes, popular ones might be

familiar to many of us.“Animals are always a classic for

nurseries,” says De’Ath. “Th ey never go out of style.”

Other popular themes for a baby or older child’s room right now include pirates, dinosaurs, fl owers and the ever-classic princesses. Making a room themed can be as easy as fi nding the perfect decal to add to a wall.

“Wall decals are almost replacing wallpaper right now,” says De’Ath. “Th ey’re not as permanent, so they can be removed easily.”

She also notes that blackboards are popular additions to bedrooms right now.

“You can write little notes and messages to your kid,” De’Ath says. “Kids love notes, and it encourages play in a room.”

Her number one tip for parents?“Keep it simple,” she says. “You should

also know your style. Is it modern, classic, vintage? You need to know what you’re looking for.”

She also recommends making sure the room is functional by ensuring that it has space for sleeping, playing and whatever else the child will use it for.

Decorating a nursery or children’s room has come a long way in the past few decades; you’re no longer relegated to blue for boys and pink for girls. Now, you can decorate that room just as you would decorate your own; suiting the occupant’s taste and style.

“My electrical panel may be old, but it doesn’t look bad and it still works...

It’s still OK, isn’t it?”

I recently had the tires replaced on one of my service trucks because the tread had worn thin. I could clearly see that the tires needed replacement because tires wear out from the outside in.

Your home’s electrical service, however, deteriorates from the inside out. Without regular professional maintenance and testing, you will never know when a dangerous and potentially life threatening failure might occur. Rarely will you see or experience anything seriously wrong with your system until it is too late. This requires the eye of a trained and experienced professional.

Worn circuit breakers, deteriorated bus bars, corrosion, overloaded circuits and loose connections are just some of the problems that may exist in a system that is not inspected or properly maintained.

This is why residential electrical failures account for over 7,400 household fi res a year. Many of these failures could have been prevented with a thorough electrical panel inspection.

The Blue Crest Electric25 Point Safety Evaluation

will identify potential concerns before they become serious or expensive problems. This report is the equivalent to your car’s service maintenance record. Schedule an appointment today.

The Primary Reasons for electrical system failures in residential homes are:

Corrosion

Heat-related damage

Electrical Surges

Improper original installations

Improper additions & modifi cations

Poor workmanship

Age-related deterioration

Excessive loads

Insulation deterioration

Arcing faults

Physical damage of wiring or devices

Water or humidity damage

Neglect

Safety Tip: Every electrical panel should be assessed regularly by a professional electrician to

determine whether it is still safe.

Paint is one of the easiest ways to freshen up your space, and can make for some endlessly creative possibilities. A new coat of paint will go a long way towards transforming your home.

“Th e spectrum of colours for the coming year continues to refl ect people’s desire to disconnect from today’s complex world and return to the beauty of nature and art,” says Mylene Gevry, brand director for Sico paint.

Continuing that natural trend, yellow is expected to be this year’s hottest colour.

Th is year’s “stand out colour can best be described as a butter cream yellow, a warm pastel shade that has a fullness to it, but is still light enough to act as a neutral,” says Alison Goldman, brand manager for CIL paint. CIL has released a new colour called Creamy this year, which takes all of those descriptors into account.

“It’s a soft buttery colour that emits a feeling of calm, tranquility and renewal,” says Goldman.

CIL recommends pairing it with citrus colours for a pop of spring in the home.

“Overall, the 2014 colour palette demonstrates our growing desire for life balance,” says Gevry. “As a result, we will see increased use of rich colour combinations, innovative patterns and distinct lines throughout the year.”

“People are starting to let out their collective

breath and are ready for new beginnings, which is translating into a movement towards fresh and creative colours,” says Martin Tustin-Fuchs, brand manager for Dulux paint. “As a result, we’ll see novel shades and unexpected

combinations of colours in the year ahead in all areas of home decor.”

He sees vibrant colours and new energy arriving in home decor.

“Reds are more tangy, oranges are more expressive, greens are more jewelled and blues are more tropical,” says Tustin-Fuchs.

Popular reds are expected to include vibrant reds with orange undertones, while oranges are moving towards terra-cotta and spice hues, according to Dulux.

Blue itself will tend towards the ocean colours, and green will build off emerald and teal. Purple will move in two directions; the fi rst will trend towards red-hued purples, and the other towards blue-purple tones.

Paint takes its cue from fashion, and this will be especially evident this year.

“Our 2014 colour palette creates a contemporary and edited view of modern society, and on the other, it embraces an artisan past, infl uenced by the historical patterns of brocades, damasks and toile, and our continued appreciation for anything hand-craft ed,” says Gevry.

Starting anew witha fresh coat of paint

This year’s hot colours include soft and creamy yellows and vibrant and saturated shades.

Third-place finish for Hadwin in Mexico

Adam Hadwin contin-ued his season-opening roll on the Web.com Tour, finishing tied for third at the El Bosque Mexico Championship.

Hadwin wrapped up the event with a terrific four-under 68 during Sunday’s final round, which got him to -7 for the tourna-ment and into a six-way tie for third, six strokes back of winner Carlos Ortiz.

The 26-year-old Abbotsford golfer earned $29,925, which boosted him from fourth to third on the tour’s money list with total earnings of $173,289.

The top 25 at season’s end earn PGA Tour cards for 2015, and Hadwin’s

hot start has put him ingreat position – in 2013,the 25th-place finisher on the money list had$168,710.

Hadwin has made thecut at all six Web.comTour events to date in

2014, highlightedby a trio of top-10finishes, includ-ing a victory atthe Chile Openand an eighth-place result at thePacific RubialesC o l o m b i aChampionship.

Fellow Abbotsford golf-er Nick Taylor missedthe cut in Mexico – heopened with a one-un-der 71, but struggled to aseven-bogey, zero-birdie79 in the second round.He’s 45th on the moneylist with earnings of$28,258.

When the Abbotsford Heat hit the ice last weekend, they didn't know they were playing the last regular season home games in fran-chise history.

Tuesday's announce-ment that the City of Abbotsford would be terminating its con-tract with the AHL fran-chise (see story, page 1) rendered the Friday-Sunday series versus the Oklahoma City Barons as historic in retrospect.

The Heat won the opener 3-2 behind a spectacular 35-save per-formance from Joni Ortio, with Brett Olson, Derek Smith and Blair Jones supplying the goals.

The Barons rallied fora 5-4 shootout win onSunday thanks to two goals from Austin Fyten.Heat defenceman BrettKulak scored his first progoal, while Olson, Ben Street and Max Reinhartalso scored for Abbyand Doug Carr made 23saves in his pro debut.

The Heat (40-25-8, 88 points) are fifth in theWestern Conference andassured of a playoff berth.

They finish the regu-lar season with a three-games-in-three-nightsroad trip: Thursdayand Friday at the SanAntonio Rampage, andSaturday at the TexasStars. The playoffs beginnext week.

Caught up in the moment not an excuseIn my zeal with a

new smartphone, I have videoed every-thing from the fun to the downright bor-ing. When viewing a recent video clip, I was surprised when an off-colour remark was caught on video and lo and behold, it was my voice that made it!

I thought, “I am going to have to edit that out.”

Jesus said, “For all that is secret will eventually be brought into the open, and ev-erything that is con-cealed will be brought to light and made known to all.” (Luke 8:17)

Now, having an over-

active imagination, I wondered what this verse might look like: A giant screen before all mankind, where every action and in-tention of my life is played out in hi-def? Not an amus-ing thought, e s p e c i a l l y when there is no chance for editing.

Yet God sees it all right now.

I don’t think we can use the reason, “I was caught up in the mo-ment” – the timely excuse crafted by the Vancouver riot-ers. That doesn’t cut it with us and cer-

tainly doesn’t cut it with God.

The real solution is to edit our movie

now by not just being sad for what we have done, but doing a 1 8 0 - d e g r e e turn and mak-ing every ef-fort to ensure it doesn’t hap-pen again. It’s

just like in my mar-riage when I make a mistake, saying sorry to my wife is one thing, but if I am re-ally sorry, I will do all that I can do not to repeat it.

But what about our weaknesses? Our God said He can deal with

them in a one-two punch:

1. He said he will strengthen us.

2. He himself will provide an escape from our temptations.

So go ahead, edit

your movie now, you will be amazed to see how your movie ends.

DANIEL, HARMENY1958 - 2014

Harmeny Daniel, nee Maw, Vissers, artist, mother, daugh-ter, sister, friend, and aunt (Honey). Harmeny’s warmth and compassion were unlimited; each day she fulfi lled her desire to make the world a better place. Harmeny was immensely proud of her two children, Ian and Leifka Vissers. She taught her children to be strong, independent, and always ensured that they felt loved. Harmeny had an exceptional amount of love for her siblings; to Jann, Colleen, Patrick, and Thorrin she was a constant source of encourage-ment, love, and humour. Harmeny is survived by her mother, Jean Maw, whose un-wavering support has been with her through every one of life’s adventures. While Harmeny was born in the lower mainland, she was drawn to the Yukon by its raw beauty, and it is here she found her true home. A celebration of life will take place on Saturday, April 19th at Sharon United Church in Langley, 2pm. For her full obituary, or to leave condo-lences please visit: www.heritagenorth.ca/obituaries

a number of custom car creations by

some of western Canada’s top car-

crafters.

rolling automotive art took more than

20,000 hours to build and was recent-

This is the fi rst time in more 30 years

that a Canadian has won the Ridler and

we are honoured to have been chosen

for its Canadian debut. Please join us in

well represented at our 2014 event.

This year marks the 40th anniversary

of the hit ‘70s TV show Happy Days, and

we are very pleased to announce that

Henry Winkler, aka ‘The Fonz’, has been

confi rmed as our special guest of honour.

Happy Days capitalized on the nostalgic

theme of the very successful American

Graffi ti movie and revolved around a

group of friends growing up in a small

American town in the late ‘50s and ‘60s.

The Fonz character was the defi nition of

cool in the TV series which took us back

to a time of innocence and featured great

cars and classic rock ‘n’ roll. We are hon-

oured that Mr. Winkler has taken time

from his very busy schedule to attend.

Another addition to our line-up of car

stars will be an appearance by old-school

car customizer Larry Grobe, better known

as Voodoo Larry. You can catch him at

the Cherry Bomb Photography booth

where he will be signing autographs and

demonstrating his pin-striping skills in

between working on a special chop at the

Custom Car Classroom.

Joining Mr. Winkler and Voodoo Larry

are returning celebrities, George Barris,

the King of Kustomizers, and the metal

master himself, Gene Winfi eld. Brought

to you by the Great Canadian Oil Change

company, Barris will once again be cruis-

ing the show looking for his favourite car

which will receive the annual Custom Car

Of The Year Award.

Winfi eld will be busy all weekend work-

ing his metal magic at the KMS Tools

and C.A.R. Parts sponsored Custom Car

Classroom, when he chops the top on a

1948 Chevrolet Businessman’s Coupe.

All the stars will be appearing at the

show Friday through Sunday signing au-

tographs, selling memorabilia and pos-

ing for photos with their fans.

Also returning for 2014 is the very

popular Custom Motorcycle Showcase.

This special feature is brought to you by

MountainView Harley-Davidson in Chilli-

wack and is dedicated to the two-wheel

enthusiast featuring numerous creations

by the top bike builders in the province.

And if you’re a rider yourself, you can take

advantage of free bike parking on Cornell

Street directly in front of the Tradex, cour-

tesy of MountainView Harley-Davidson.

Our Fuel and Fire event continues to be

a big hit with race fans thanks to sponsors

West-Can Auto Parts, Eagle Motorplex

and Mission Raceway Park. Be a part of

the action when nitro methane-powered

dragsters and fuel altereds fi re up their

3,500-plus horsepower engines thrilling

fans with Thunder In The Pipes! And as if

that’s not enough, Barry Prescott and his

jet powered-funny car, the Terminator,

will be performing in our Burner Bang

Shootout! These cars are unbelievable

to watch generating 30-foot fl ames from

Starting with a 1964 Buick Riviera,

one of the iconic designs in the auto-

motive world, JF Laurnier, owner of

JF Kustoms in Osoyoos has taken Bill

Mitchell’s design to a whole new level.

Keeping true to the overall concept of

the car, but tweaking every bit of it, is

tricky to get right, and the Ridler Award

is proof he got it very right indeed.

As with all new customs, the mod-

ern running gear allows it to run and

perform like a new exotic super car but

with a totally unique personality. The

overall look is so perfect that even the

next generation “Boattail” rear window

looks like a factory design. The original

Riviera was conceived by legendary

designer Bill Mitchell to give GM a car

that had a taste of a Rolls-Royce with

the performance of a Ferrari.

Laurnier had already tackled the

Detroit Autorama’s Ridler award with

3 cars he had built for customers and

now was the time for him to recreate

a Buick Riviera and tackle the Ridler

award with a car of his own. The 1964

Buick Riviera, dubbed “Rivision,” was

in a league of its own. Out of the 2014

Great 8 contenders, four were Chevys

and three were Ford hot rods.

Knowing the ‘64s roof had a sedate

look, Laurnier added another of Bill

Mitchell’s classic designs, the early ‘70s

Riviera Boa.

Over the years we’ve come to know and

love many TV characters, from Hawk-

eye Pierce and Louis De Palma, to Andy

Griffi th and Archie Bunker. While plenty

of television’s actors have perfected their

role and landed a place in American pop

culture in regards to being labeled a ‘Cool

Dude’, it would be safe to

crown this one TV charac-

ter above all others as the

coolest there is. If you were

to look up the word cool in

the dictionary, no doubt his

picture would be included.

Who else would be

swarmed by adoring girls

by simply snapping his fi n-

gers, start a juke box with

one swift pound of his fi st,

or create his own ‘macho

vocabulary’ that included

‘Exactamundo’ than the

‘70s TV icon known as ‘The Fonz’. Also

going by the title ‘Fonzie’, he was the main

character that sky rocketed the seventy’s

TV sit com Happy Days to the number

1 rated program in America. Played by

a recent acting school graduate by the

name of Henry Winkler his interpretation

of a small mid-western town’s motorcy-

cle riding, leather jacketed rebel would

become one the biggest success stories in

television history.

To better understand how this all

transpired we’ll start way back in 1973

when the ABC TV network executives had

noticed the success of a certain George

Lucas produced movie called ‘American

Graffi ti’ and wanted to

capitalize on the sudden

nostalgia craze. A TV pilot

for a new ‘50s show (even

though ‘Graffi ti was set in

1962) was arranged, but

before this was initiated a

TV producer by the name

of Garry Marshal was con-

tacted about a ‘50s ‘skit’

that had already been tele-

vised as one segment of

the ‘Love American Style’

TV show. Since Garry al-

ready had in place a nostal-

gia story line ready to produce into a full

blown show, ABC elected to pick up his

work. It also helped that appearing as one

of the actors in that skit was Ron Howard,

the actor who had starred in ‘Graffi ti’. It

only made sense to include him in this

new venture. When Happy Days fi rst aired

Jason ROESSLEAbbotsford News

A 1970s television legend will be in Abbotsford later this weekend for the annual B.C. Classic and Custom Car Show.

Best known as The Fonz from Happy Days (which celebrates its 40th anni-versary this year), Henry Winkler will be speaking at the event, scheduled for April 18-20 at Tradex.

But Winkler wasn't always a car guy.

He leases his vehicles, and as long as they start, he's happy.

"But now when I go to these car shows, talk about will and passion – [the builders] have created works of art," he said. "I have enormous respect for what they do. To experience their pride and joy in that vehicle is emo-tional.

Winkler said that his talk is simply about his life story.

"Even if they came to see The Fonz, they will leave having an appreciation of who I am today."

It was the struggle to escape the typecasting shadow The Fonz cast that formed Winkler into who he is today.

"There was a time when it was hard

to get hired," said Winkler. He then aimed his efforts at directing, produc-ing and writing.

Winkler has also long championed helping children suffering from learn-ing disabilities – something he knows all too well. A dyslexic, he struggled daily with his chosen profession, especially one that emphasizes mem-orization.

The accomplished performer has also co-authored 26 children's books with Lin Oliver. The main character is Hank Zipzer, a boy affl icted with dyslexia and growing up on the Upper West Side of New York City, is based on Winkler himself. The books have also spawned into a television series of the same name, which fi rst aired in January 2014 on the Children's BBC in the United Kingdom.

Aside from some guest television and movie appearances, Winkler earned another legion of fans from his work on the cult-favourite TV show, Arrested Development.

Winkler said he still counts as one of his greatest TV moments the time he was able to make a notoriously serious man, producer Mitch Horowitz, laugh out loud.

on ABC in 1974 to meager rat-

ings, high school student Richie

Cunningham, played by Ron

Howard starred as a teenager

dealing with friends and family

life in a typical Wisconsin town

during the ‘50s. The usual com-

ical antics and practical jokes

ensued. Critics soon anticipated

a quick burial, after all this was

a time when Disco was begin-

ning to develop. Fate may have

cut this show’s existence if not

for one lone factor. Producer

Garry Marshal

had included

a character in

the script that

would trans-

form, and

save Happy

Days, as well

as give rise

to one of the

most popular

stars ever

televised.

When it

came time

to conjure

up a ‘50s

Greaser

type char-

acter Garry

delved into

his past for

inspiration.

It was his

recollec-

tion of a

leather

jacket clad

hood-

lum that

hung around a Bronx New York

diner, similar to Arnold’s diner

on Happy Days, that Garry had

frequented as a youth which

would be the impetus for The

Fonz. This part called for a

young Italian/American type

and a casting call for actors

went out. Having recently

graduated from the Yale school

of Drama the up-and –coming

actor by the name of Henry

Winkler would answer that call.

Competing against Henry was

a slicked haired Mickey Dolenz

from the ‘60s musical group The

Monkees. But landing the part

of Arthur Fonzarelli (The Fonz)

was Winkler.

In this role as The Fonz

Winkler would play one of

Richie Cunningham’s friends,

(who was the star of the series)

together with Richie’s other

friends Potsie Weber and Ralph

Malph. Initially this lesser part

called for The Fonz to be a

street tough biker type who was

employed as a mechanic and

spent his off hours as a bit of

a womanizer. As the show pro-

gressed so did the role of The

Fonz as it was becoming more

evident that he was beginning

to be the ‘Leader of the pack’.

During the beginning of that

fi rst season Arthur Fonzarelli

sported a beige coloured wind-

breaker, not exactly standard

issue rebel gear. ABC censors

thought a black leather jacket

implied The Fonz was too much

of a juvenile delinquent. Garry

Marshal argued that for safety

reasons (for motorcycle riders)

he should be allowed to wear a

leather jacket. This was permit-

ted, but only while riding his

motorcycle. So in most early

episodes scenes with him were

shot with his 1949 Triumph TR5

trophy motorcycle.

Eventually this restriction

was relaxed, and as his role

in the show increased so did

his popularity, as well as the

show’s. He was fast becoming a

‘chick magnet’ as he had a pen-

sion for attracting a harem. Ex-

uding confi dence The Fonz was

now set to be TV’s next King of

Cool. Bolstering his image The

Fonz would command conver-

sations using his own terminol-

ogy which included such unique

words as ‘Exactamundo’.

Another word, although not in-

vented by him, nerd, was given

new life to the point it is now a

common part of our vocabulary

today. Not to be forgotten was

the hugely popular ‘Sit on it’, a

phrase created by the show’s

writer Bob Brunner. Then there

is his all-encompassing catch

phrase, “Aaaaayh”, which is

usually accompanied by a two

‘thumbs up’ gesture. This appar-

ently was derived from the days

of the Roman gladiator battles.

With Winkler’s brilliant interpre-

tation of a ‘50s greaser scoring

huge with viewers and critics

alike, his Fonz character was

elevated to the main star status,

and was the commanding fi g-

ure in the cast. With his wealth

of ‘street wise’ knowledge he

was often sought out for advise

by the shows other characters,

including Richie. One such con-

versation went as follows; “Act

tough, sound tough and maybe

people will think you’re tough”.

Making use of Arnold’s men’s

washroom as his offi ce he

could typically be seen playing

pinball and living by his ‘code

of honor’, “live fast, love hard

and don’t let anyone use your

comb”, obviously an important

tool for keeping that cool image

intact. Showing that there was

honor in the greaser life style

he had included the Fonzarelli

code “If a man saves your life,

any favour he asks you gotta

answer it”. This may be derived

from the fact he considered his

hero to be the Lone Ranger.

By the mid-seventies this

formula for a ‘50s sit com had

become such a success Happy

Days was the #1 rated TV show

in America during the ’76-’77

season, and The Fonz’s popu-

larity was so vast that he was

receiving 55,000 fan letters per

week!

In 1980, as a true indicator of

just how much he was idolized,

the Smithsonian Institute of

American History put on display

credibility to his cult status The

Fonz is listed as #4 in TV Guide’s

’50 Greatest TV characters of all

be credited with giving life to

The Fonz, Henry Winkler, has

gone on to become a diverse

actor, as well as producing and

directing in show business. His

lengthy list of roles include ‘The

Richardt SCHOLZBritish Columbia Classic & Custom Car Show

Custom car builder, pin-striper, mu-

sician! To say Larry Grobe is talented

would be an understatement. Well

known for creating some of America’s

coolest traditional customs, Voodoo

Larry (a nickname given him by a cus-

tomer years ago) has been a devoted

disciple of the custom car culture since

he was a teenager.

Born in Chicago, Ill., Larry was intro-

duced to the world of hot rods and cus-

tom cars when he saw George Lucas’

iconic film American Graffiti in 1979 for

the first time. At the young age of 15,

the experience would forever change

the direction his life would take. He

credits the movie and in particular the

scene featuring a custom 1951 Merc

and actor Bo Hopkins (leader of the

Pharaohs car club) for kick-starting his

life long interest in old cars, ‘50s mu-

sic and the ‘graffiti’ lifestyle.

Over the next 30 years, Larry totally

immersed himself in all things custom

car-related. Completely self-taught,

he has created too many cars to list,

but two that deserve special recogni-

tion are his Voodoo Idol, a 1946 Ford

Coupe built as a tribute to legendary

car builder Gene Winfield (also ap-

pearing at this year’s show) along with

the Voodoo Kreeper, the 1953 Chevy

150 Sedan pictured above.

In 2007 Larry converted his passion

into a business opening Voodoo Larry

Kustoms in Elk Grove Village (a suburb

of Chicago). His shop specializes in the

creation of one-of-a-kind old school

customs and traditional hot rods. Over

the past eight years his work has be-

come very respected among the ‘Graf-

fiti’ crowd right across North America.

Typically there are anywhere from 10

to 12 projects on the go at any given

time in his shop with one to two cars

being completed each year.

In addition to building custom

cars, Larry is also an accomplished

pin-striper. Inspired by the early work

of Big Daddy Ed Roth, he’s been laying

down lines for more than 20 years.

In his spare time, Larry is also very

active in the car club and show scene

around Chicago. He is the founder of

the Voodoo Kings car club (established

in 1998) and has also been the orga-

nizer of the highly popular Motorama

feature section of the Chicago World

of Wheels for the past five years. He

also plays stand-up bass in the Rock-

abilly band ‘Lil Red and the Howling

Wolves, which he formed three years

ago (check it out on Facebook). Can

you say busy guy?

You can catch up with Larry at the

show by visiting the Cherry Bomb

Photography booth where he will be

demonstrating his pin-striping skills

in between working on a “chop” at the

Custom Car Classroom. Although this

is not the first time Larry has attend-

ed a car show in the Greater Vancou-

ver area (he appeared at the 2011 Ab-

botsford World Of Wheels) we are very

pleased to have him at our show. And

something tells me that we’ll be see-

ing a lot more of Voodoo Larry around

the Fraser Valley in the future (you’ll

have to ask him what’s up).

I’m sure his many Canadian friends

and fans will be very happy about that

indeed.

Frozen Vegetables: The Powerhouse Convenience Food

BROUGHT TO YOU BY ABBOTSFORD NISSAN

CHEF DEZ on COOKING

During every trip to the supermar-ket we must make choices between the price, health, and convenience aspects of the foods we buy. Most

people tend to believe that fresh is always the best option, and in many cases it is, but what about frozen vegetables? Are they just as nutritious as their fresh counterparts?

Studies have shown that most frozen vegetables are just as nourishing. Other than a quick blanching process to kill any bacteria, they are virtually un-processed and fl ash frozen to preserve freshness. By staying frozen from shortly after harvest-ing until the time they reach your kitchen, they are by far a better product than most people think.

Unless fresh goods are harvested locally, they must travel great distances in order to be available to you in the produce section. This usually means that they are harvested before full ripeness occurs in hopes of them being at their peak by the time they arrive for one to purchase. This timely arrival is not always the case however, and you may be left with a more inferior product than if you were to get it direct from the farm. Full

ripening on the tree/vine before harvesting also always produces a far more healthful product.

This being said, if you live in a farming area where fresh local produce is available then by all means buy fresh, otherwise frozen is another viable option. For many house-holds frozen is far more convenient for their

busy lifestyles: cutting, washing, and in some cases peeling has already been done for them. The chance of food spoilage is also greatly reduced, unless it is for-gotten about in the freezer for long periods of time. Most fro-zen vegetables are recommend-ed to be stored in the freezer for up to 6 months. They are not im-mediately bad or freezer burnt

in the 7th month, but should be used up sooner rather than later for optimal results.

I am not by any means suggesting that one should always buy frozen when it comes to imported fruits or vegetables, but merely that there are other healthy and convenient options to fresh when applicable. One last note is to always read the labels on all pack-aged foods to ensure that you are aware of any added ingredients that may be present.

Next Chef Dez Column: May 21

Dear Chef Dez: Whenever I buy a bag of either frozen peas or frozen corn, they are nicely

individual but after say 1-1/2 weeks in my freezer they are turned into one big hard lump. Any suggestions?

~ Barbara T. from Maple Ridge, BC

Dear Barbara:This usually happens because the frozen vegetables partially thaw, waters collects

on the vegetables, and then when they get put back in the freezer they clump together because the newly formed moisture freezes everything together.

This can start happening even from the time you place them in your shopping cart, while you wait at the till, get them in your car, travel home and then fi nally make it into the freezer. Even in this time frame, the vegetables become partly thawed and will cause this clumping. The only thing I can suggest is to make sure you do the following:

• Shop for frozen foods last when making your grocery store trip.• Keep frozen foods together in your cart/bags to help keep them cold.• Get them immediately into the freezer when you get home.It is hard to always keep this clumping from happening at all, but the only other

thing to suggest is bring a cooler with ice packs with you in your car and as soon as you leave the grocery store place them in this cooler for the trip home.
