Bridge Street Bazaar just around the corner
FEATURE
By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca
Events – It’s a community extravaganza! With more than 100 vendors offering a world of treasures, the Carleton Place Business Improvement Association (BIA) Bridge Street Bazaar takes place next Saturday, Aug. 3, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. “This is our eighth year,” said Cathie McOrmond, BIA manager. The rain or shine event is always held on the Saturday of the August long weekend, and in the beginning it was meant to attract Riverside Jam attendees downtown. A multi-day festival, the Jam brought some of the best entertainment in country music to Carleton Place. “Although the Jam no longer operates, the bazaar continues to draw a record crowd every year,” said McOrmond. “It’s become a tourism attraction.” People come from all over eastern Ontario and western Quebec.

Events – The 2013 Almonte Fair – now in its 155th year – did not disappoint visitors, including Jillian Ferguson and Keara McDonnell (above) , who enjoyed a plethora of activities: food and refreshments, live music, demonstrations, carnival rides, games, animals, demolition derby, races and so much more. This year’s theme was “All Roads Lead to the Almonte Fair.” For more photos go to page A/CP15.
Yet again the town’s main thoroughfare, Bridge Street, will be shut off to vehicular traffic (from Mill Street to Lake Avenue). “Any cars on the main street after 7 a.m. will be towed,” warned McOrmond. “Parking is also not permitted in the municipal parking lots located across the street from Scotiabank and RBC (Royal Bank).” Endless possibilities Whether you’re looking for a relaxed family outing, interested in some serious shopping or just looking for an excuse to see friends, the open-air bazaar offers a wealth of options for both young and old. “It’s a wonderful opportunity to shop local, eat at the pubs and restaurants, and truly discover what our downtown has to offer,” said McOrmond. On top of artisans and buskers there are plenty of activities designed for children: pony rides, face painting, balloon artSee BAZARR page A/CP2

Events – Bring children and grandparents, nieces and nephews, cousins and uncles alike to this year’s family-reunion themed Puppets Up! festival. The famous Puppets Up! International Puppet Festival will be bringing in new performers and welcoming back some old friends for the 9th annual event, which kicks off Aug. 10. “It’s a family-style event with some of our favourite Puppets Up! family this year,” said Nicole Guthrie, the festival’s producer. Return acts like Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers and Tanglewood Marionettes will be hosting shows throughout the course of the two-day festival alongside other newcomer acts. Guthrie said there will be
two puppeteer groups all the way from Hungary at the festival, supporting the international scope the festival is known for. “It’s quite a unique event,” said Guthrie. “There’s really nothing like it anywhere in the area. It’s a great opportunity for our town.” Puppets Up! has been held in the heart of Almonte, filling the central hub that is Mill Street with crowds of people and puppets, for the past eight years. This will be the festival’s ninth year, and Guthrie said she hopes it will be bigger and better than ever. The festival begins on Saturday, with the first show starting at 9:45 a.m. From there the fun continues right up until 6 p.m. – promising a long, full day of entertainment for people of all ages. “That’s the good thing about
puppetry,” said Guthrie. “It really appeals to everyone.” Family friendly Most of the daytime performances, says Guthrie, will be family-friendly, but there will also be some fun specifically for the older crowd: each year the festival has an adult cabaret on Saturday night. This year the show is called The Black Sheep of the Family and will be filled with adult humour. Tickets for this show are sold separately. Dispersed throughout the festival’s five show tents, which are sprinkled around the centre of town, there will be various food vendors, street performances and activities; wandering up and down the street is encouraged, said Guthrie. Though the streets can get very crowded during Puppets Up!, everyone makes room for the daily parade that marches up
Mill Street at 1:45 p.m. Performers and their puppets, local dignitaries and special guests participate in the parade each year. This year it will feature guests like the CBC’s Ed Lawrence and a certain visitor who normally only comes to Almonte in December. “Santa Claus will be joining us all the way from the North Pole,” said Guthrie. The parade wouldn’t be complete without the spectators, though, said Guthrie. Festival goers and locals are encouraged to join in the parade lineup and walk the streets as part of the festivities. Puppets Up! is widely known and celebrated, said Guthrie, but it is a huge undertaking. “The festival is entirely volunteer run,” she said. Guthrie said it takes more than 250 volunteers to organize

In addition to donations, she said, volunteers and sponsors are always needed to help the festival run smoothly. Guthrie said that this year’s festival will be one to beat, but mentioned that fans should stay tuned for next year as well. “Next year will be the festival’s 10th anniversary,” she said. “So it will be huge.”

Australian singer-songwriter David Ross MacDonald will perform at one of his favourite venues, MERA Schoolhouse on Saturday, Aug. 10. MacDonald is known for his ďŹ nger-style guitar work and his vocals have been compared to those of Nick Drake and Bruce Cockburn.
one-acre plot of land in South Australia. He hasn’t completely given up the life of a troubadour, though, and his brief trip to Canada this summer will bring him to the MERA Schoolhouse, one of his favourite venues. “It’s always a treat to play at MERA,� says MacDonald, who called his first sold-out appearances at the schoolhouse in October 2010, “a triple-A gig.� He returned to another capacity-audience in June of 2011, but has been busy working on his new home since then, so hasn’t had a chance for a return visit until now. MacDonald will be in Canada for only a short time this summer and has especially requested the chance to play again at MERA as one of only a handful of concerts on his itinerary. Acoustic Guitar Magazine likened MacDonald’s vocals, lyrics, and intricate finger-style guitar style to “a collaboration between Nick Drake and a mid-1970s Bruce Cockburn.� Ross deals in subtlety, intimacy and nuance with a tunesmiths hand that coins songs and music with a haunting and poignant quality. Born of a jazz musician father he returned to his musical roots after some years underground as a geologist and now plies his trade not only as an internationally touring songwriter but also as a jazz turned folkroots drummer for the acclaimed Australian group The Waifs. Having played with and opened for such luminaries including John Renbourn, Tony McMannus, Kelly Joe Phelps and Chris Smither, MacDonald constantly tours internationally armed with his 1935 Gibson guitar and a carpet bag of songs that he illuminates in his own inimitably reserved yet intense, poetic style. Other accolades for MacDonald include: “(David Ross MacDonald) is one of those few songwriters like Nick Drake, Conor Oberst (Bright Eyes), and Josh Ritter that can captivate his

Minimum wage panel just another distraction, says Hillier EMC News – “Instead of really fixing our failing economy, the Liberals are trying distraction and smoke and mirrors yet again,” said Randy Hillier, MPP for Lanark-Frontenac-Lennox & Addington, on the back of the McGuinty-Wynne Government’s appointment of a
minimum wage panel. The panel, a promise by former disgraced Premier Dalton McGuinty in his 2011 budget, has been taken up enthusiastically by his successor Premier Wynne and Labour Minister Yasir Naqvi. They claim that labour, social activists and business will all
be represented. The unemployed, who may be unable to find a job due to our labour laws, are not going to be on the panel. As well, they have said nothing to suggest that regional issues will be taken into consideration, like they are in the United Kingdom.
“In Alberta, there are people pouring coffee for $7 an hour above the minimum wage. That’s what economic growth does. People top to bottom benefit. If the Liberals really wanted to better the lives of our most vulnerable workers, we need better economic leadership,” said Hillier. Since 2003, the year the Liberals gained power, inflation-adjusted GDP per capita has increased a paltry 1.8 per cent.
“Our economy has barely grown since Premier McGuinty first came into office,” he continued. “Instead of cutting taxes and red tape, instead of bringing manufacturing back to Ontario, instead of keeping electricity cheap, instead of opening up the North to economic opportunity with the Ring of Fire, the Liberals have shut things down,”he said. “We shouldn’t want anyone to make minimum wage.
We should want people to make the most they can make, to be the most productive they can be. Maybe instead of having a minimum wage panel, the Liberals should make a ‘squandered opportunities panel’ to recommend the repeal of most everything the McGuinty-Wynne Liberals have ever done,” Hillier added.

Ashton area man perfects art of growing garlic By JOHN CURRY john.curry@metroland.com
News – Garlic is king in Dave Cornell’s garden in Ashton. Sure, he has other crops such as tomatoes, green beans and rhubarb in his extensive garden but garlic is his primary focus as he grows 6,000 plants covering about 20 varieties, which is down from the 40 varieties that he used to grow. And while he has been an avid vegetable gardener for 35 years, it was only about 15 years ago that he started growing garlic and that was just as a lark to see if he could grow it, having no experience whatsoever with the crop. He had been hunting moose with some buddies when the topic turned to growing garlic and he took up the challenge of seeing if he could grow it. “It started out as a hobby and turned into an obsession,” is how Cornell describes what is now a decade and a half growing garlic. He goes under the name “Ashton Station Garlic” with farm gate sales at his 1967 Ashton Station Road home (right at the intersection of Ashton Station Road and Ormrod Road, the curvy bypass road for Ashton village) as well as sales at the annual Carp Garlic Festival. In addition, he supplies his daughter Donna Chute of Stittsville with the garlic which she uses for the garlic jellies which she markets, also under the Ashton Station name. She uses her own unique recipes, producing such jellies as Balsamic fig jelly and cranberry onion and roasted garlic jelly. So, how does a hobby become an obsession? Well, you
start growing more and more varieties, which in Cornell’s case grew to be 40 varieties, something which he has now cut back to 20 varieties. But it is not just growing these varieties in long rows (ten rows, 80 feet long), all separated and identified, that takes Cornell’s attention. He also keeps exhaustive records of the yield that he gets from each variety. If a certain variety is not germinating at a 90 per cent or so rate or is not producing at a suitable size or rate, as indicated by these records, then that variety is abandoned and a replacement found. He plants his different varieties in blocks, some of which are short plants and some of which are taller plants. Being in blocks also helps with the harvesting since the different varieties tend to mature at slightly different times. Some of the varieties are mild and some are stronger; some produce many cloves while others have fewer but larger cloves. “I specialize in the hotter varieties of garlic,” Cornell says, saying that this is where the market is these days. He is always on the lookout for varieties that have, as he says, “a good heat.” This is what sells best in his experience. Garlic is planted in the fall, usually in early October. Like a tulip, the plants develop their roots in the fall and then are the first plants up in the spring, sometimes even before the snow is gone. The harvest starts at the beginning of July and for Cornell, it takes the whole month of July to harvest all of
his garlic. This is where the differing maturity times helps. “Everything is done by hand,” he explains, noting that for him it is a “labour of love.” Growing garlic on the scale that Cornell does is virtually a full time job in the growing season because of the weeding and fertilizing involved. Dave is a passionate organic gardener and while not a certified organic grower because of the presence of non-organic farmland across the road, he does everything organically. He has four compost bins which provide compost for his garlic garden. He also uses sheep manure and bone meal for fertilizer and uses grass clippings as mulch. He uses no pesticides or herbicides. His customers keep coming back, he says, because quality sells and also because they want organically grown garlic. He says that his garlic, freshly harvested, has a much different taste than the garlic that is sold in stores. Taste is the key, Cornell says. If customers like to eat the garlic, then they will be back to buy more of it. But he is adamant that the garlic sold must be quality, no matter how much work is involved. And this can mean working in the heat in the garden for up to eight to ten hours a day. There is a lot of hand labour involved, especially with the organic emphasis in his garden. “Go quality or go home,” he says. “You don’t sell junk.” Any garlic that does not meet his standards for selling (the clove might be slightly split) is not wasted, though. It goes to his daughter Donna who is able
to use it in making her garlic jellies. Cornell says that garlic does not like standing in water. This was not a problem last year with its drought conditions but this year’s wet conditions did affect the crop somewhat. Cornell had installed an irrigation system just before last year, so his crop was not impacted by the dry conditions of 2012. Beginning about the first week of June, garlic needs about an inch of water a week. This year’s wet weather provided this. Last year Cornell’s irrigation system provided it. He likes to have his crop all
harvested and cured in time for sale at the Carp Garlic Festival in early August. This year’s 14th annual Carp Garlic Festival on Saturday, Aug. 10 and Sunday, Aug. 11 will feature 35 garlic vendors which will include Dave and his Ashton Station Garlic booth. All of the crop must be pulled out by hand or with the aid of a garden pitchfork. The garlic cloves are cleaned off and the plants are hung up in the shade to dry out, taking about three weeks to cure properly. Cornell says that harvested garlic should always be kept in the shade. When they are com-
pletely dried out, he assembles them in batches of six, all graded and identified by variety. He advises that garlic should never be refrigerated because in the cool, the garlic will start to grow. One pest that impacts growing garlic is the leek month but Cornell, along with other local growers, is doing his part in trying to eliminate this pest. He is taking part in Agriculture Canada research on the leek moth and has a couple of leek moth capture stations in his garden to help with the research towards developing a biological control of leek moths.
Take credit for summer child care Manage Your Money
For much of the year, and depending on their age, your children are in daycare, school or before/after school programs–so you know they are well cared for while you pursue your vocation. But during the summer months, when schools are closed and daycare centres may curtail their hours of operation, you have to find another way of keeping your kids safe and occupied during the day. That’s why summer day camps are such a popular choice for parents everywhere in Canada. And here’s a money-saving fact that makes day camps even more attractive: day camp fees, like other child care expenses, may be deducted from a parent’s income taxes. Here’s how it works. • Day camp expenses can be deducted from income tax by the lower earning spouse of an eligible child. • The amount of child care expenses that can be claimed in a tax year is based on the child’s age and whether the child has any disabilities. • The deductible amount also has an overall limit of two-thirds of the earned
income of the lower earning parent. • The annual child care expense limit per child is: o Child under age 7 – $7,000 o Child age seven to 16 – $4,000 o Child eligible for the disability tax credit – $10,000 • Deductions for payments to a boarding school or overnight camp have weekly limits. For each week the child attends the school or camp the weekly limit is: o Child under age 7 – $175 per week o Child age 7 to 16 – $100 o Child eligible for the disability tax credit – $250 You can claim these deductions using tax form T778. You are not required to submit receipts with the form but you should retain them in case they are ever requested. Child care expenses are tax deductible both federally and provincially, except for
Québec. In Québec, child care expenses can be claimed as a refundable tax credit with the credit rate varying depending on net family income. Get all the (tax) credit you deserve for sending your kids to day camp–and make sure you get maximum tax-reduction benefits from your other tax credits and deductions.

Social inequality root of food bank issues: experts patricia.leboeuf@metroland.com
EMC News – The increasing use of food banks is just a symptom of growing social inequality within Canadian society. “There is a lot of evidence that things are getting worse for people who are not well off,” said Dr. Fran Klodawsky, professor at Carleton University whose expertise is in social policies. “There is a growing polarization of income. In many, many facets of life, those that have are getting more and those that don’t have seem to have a harder time being able to access services, benefits, all sorts of things. “The disease in inequality,” she added. It’s happening in many areas of life. From education to healthcare to the workplace to food access, people who are less well off and are being hit on all sides. “In terms of food banks, you have food banks themselves posing more rules on how often people can access food at a time when rents are going up and incomes are not,” said Klodawsky. The Canadian government itself is failing its legal duty to care for its citizens, in the opinion of University of British Columbia School of Social Work and Family Studies Professor Graham Riches. That includes providing nutritious and plentiful food. By allowing corporations and charities to take over food distribution to those in need, the Canadian government is putting aside its human rights’ responsibility to care for its people, he said. “We have a country where we accept that there is a universal value of freely available health service which is paid for collectively, but we can’t get our heads around insuring that people can eat properly, eat nutritiously and to have sufficient income in their pockets to put food on the table,” said Riches. There are no governmental entities or ministers in charge of dealing with hunger. Food banks are completely independent and rely on the generosity and donations of community members, organizations, corporations and businesses. What grants and funds are available tend to have many strings attached. Several food banks either cannot receive this money or choose to forgo it because regulations can be very brutal. Applying for a City of Ottawa grant is an involved process requiring a strong case for support, solid and current statistics, client testimonials and more. Food banks such as the West Carleton Emergency Food Aid choose not to apply for a grant from the city because they judged the guidelines too strict. By accepting the grant, they were prevented from such things as donating spare food to other charities and building reserves for desperate times. Other food banks such as the Ottawa Food Bank relies on cor-
porate and community support for about 90 per cent of its operating budget, but does receive support from the city. “Food banks are really a symptom they are a symptom of a systematic problem. People should be able to afford to buy their own food,” said Dr. Klodawsky. “Food banks are so not a solution,” she added. “Being able to access food once a month is just a drop in the bucket.”
Charities are doing it like in Victorian times then the government doesn’t have to raise the taxes, doesn’t have to have sufficient taxes to insure we have the proper, adequate policies in place.” Food banks have slowly been taken over by large charities as well as organizations. By bestowing the responsibility elsewhere, this allows government to look the other way instead of solving the issue, he said.
Failing society The problem goes beyond food needs. There is a breakdown of the overall social safety net. “It’s happening for a lot of different reasons,” said Klodawsky. “But a number of those reasons are feeding into one and another.” There is a growing suspicion that government are misusing tax revenue. But Klodawsky says there is a lack of appreciation for what taxes do to help maintain a good quality of life much more efficiently than what the marketplace does. There is not enough discussion about the benefits of having a government that can take care of its citizens as well as its infrastructure, she added. “The government is not fulfilling its obligations under international law to respect, protect and fulfill the right to food,” said Riches. “We’d like to think that we have it but the point in fact is that it’s not there. There are too many people going hungry.” According to Health Canada, there were 3.9 million Canadians living in households that are deemed food insecure. “A considerable portion of them are severely food insecure so they are hungry,” said Riches. This lack of direct and profound involvement goes against the Charter of Rights, both experts agreed. “If people don’t have enough to eat, how can they be active citizens? How can they be engaged politically? How can they be part of Canadian society?” said Klodawsky. “I think we need to have more conversations about the kind of society we want.” People need to ask questions and push the issue, she said. Canada has signed and ratified documents at the international level, promising to uphold several socioeconomic and cultural rights including the right to food. “They are not meeting their obligation under international law which of course was pointed out when the UN special rep visited Canada early last year,” said Riches. “It is profoundly unethical, but the further point is that it is unlawful because they are acting in domestic violation of their international obligation,” he added.” This is question of law as well as morality.” Many current politicians tend to have the idea that food aid should be left to the marketplace, said Riches. “They are saving money,” he said. “Of course they want charities to fulfill this function.
Food banks not working “It’ a sort of self-satisfied feeling in the community that food banks are working when all the evidence shows that they are not,” said Riches. “In fact, only one in four people who are food insecure use food banks.” Many people won’t use the service because of the social stigma, the lack of nutritious quality in the food offered, the way they are treated, the lack of transportation and availability of food banks. The food bank society is failing and politicians refuse to take action and they typically aren’t thinking about creating or altering programs that would help break the vicious circle of poverty, said Riches. They need to address things such as affordable housing, national childcare, changes to some of the current income security programs, adequate welfare system, and higher living wages. This would in many ways stimulate the economy, but most current politicians don’t seem very interested in pursuing it, affirmed Riches. “These are political questions,” he said. “These not questions of charity. They should not be left to charity. That’s because charity work is uncoordinated. It’s sort of a mishmash of services.” Many corporations have taken on charity work. This allows them to be put in a positive light “as if they are good corporate citizens.” However their donations and charitable costs are built into their service fees. “The food that you are purchasing in the stores you’ve already be paid for the wasted food and surplus food,” said Riches. “That’s contained in the price structure. It’s actually cheaper for the companies to give it away then to pay to put it in the dump.” “This is all part of marketing strategies,” he added. “It’s all about income making, profit strategies and that’s not talked about.” From this, a secondary feeding system is created, providing substandard food to those in need. “A lot of the issues we see around the world today are caused by the globalization of corporate interests,” said Riches. “Some would argue that it makes it very difficult for governments to act in a democratic way.” Feeding people should not be left to corporations or charities, even the best intentioned ones, he said.
tutionalized “because people that don’t have to worry about food on a daily basis assume that food banks take care of the problem.” Riches started researching the subject in the early 1980s during the recession. The social programs in place at the time were unable to meet the demands of those that were finding themselves unemployed. Food banks were created, as charitable organizations, to fulfill that gap. There are about 450 food banks affiliated with Food Banks Canada and many more that aren’t. They now serve close to 900,000 individuals per month with 93,000 people accessing it for the first time. That number is increasing while donations are decreasing. In the Ottawa area alone, there are 44 organizations that provide food services. “We’ve had charitable food banks in Canada since 1981 and we’ve had 30 years of food banking and the problem is not going away,” said Riches. “I would say that the problem is getting more entrenched in terms of food insecurity and hunger. “It’s a failure of government to acknowledge the problem as governments over time generally fail to acknowledge to the severity of problems of poverty and income insecurity,” he added. He hasn’t seen many changes
A long time coming Food banks have become instiTHE EMC - 7 - Thursday, July 25, 2013
over the years. Historically the attitude of people towards the poor has been to force them back onto the workforce. Typically social services are tailored to be as painful as possible to encourage people to insure that “poverty becomes as difficult as possible. “At the end of the day, people are forced by very strict welfare policies to prefer to work rather than be lazy, idle, indolent people that are not working,” said Riches. Working poor, not welfare cases The stereotype of the welfare mooch doesn’t apply to the vast majority. There may be some people that take advantage of social programs, but most are genuinely in need, said Riches. Most of the welfare issues are related to administrative error. “People actually cannot claim their full benefits,” said Riches. “It’s really administrative error that is actually a critical problem in the welfare system.” In general, people who are food insecure are employed. Considered the working poor, they just cannot cover their bills and put food on the table. Many of them have children, with 38 per cent of food bank users being under the age of 18. Many others are retirees or people with disabilities.
The idea that charities and not the government should be in charge of feeding hungry Canadians will grind on as long as the public perception believes that it sustainable, said Riches. There is a growing trend of people realizing that there must be an alternative way. Freedom 90 Union is such an organization. The groups of elderly volunteers have spent several decades helping out food banks and have seen it get worse. They are pushing to close food banks, not out of malice or exhaustion, but because the system is not working. They want the government to find more sustainable solutions and eradicate the root of the problem: poverty and income inequality. “I think more people are beginning to question the facile kind of ideas that are being put out there. I hope there will be further, more informed discussions that raise more questions,” said Dr. Klodawsky. “A lot of the promises made about what markets can do are being challenged. “There are all sorts of things that are going on that contest the idea that everything should be about market and money in a very narrow sense,” she added.

LE T TER TO THE EDITOR
Reader says Green Energy Act a great success DEAR EDITOR Despite the Conservative Party talking points in Lanark-FrontenacLennox & Addington MPP Randy Hillier’s letter to the editor (July 18), the Green Energy Act is a great success. All you have to do is look at all the solar panels all around eastern Ontario. The good news is that, despite Hillier’s claims, renewable energy is not responsible for the major portion of hydro rate increases. Nuclear power takes the credit for that, as it is responsiable for 40 per cent of rate increases as opposed to renewables, five per cent. There is more good news because the provincial government has just announced a new conservation program and this means that we will be using less power. Even more good news is that renewable energy is cheaper than refurbished and new nuclear since new nuclear will no longer be subsidized as current nuclear reactors are.
Even more good news is that we are producing more and more clean renewable energy to help the environment and it will soon displace nuclear power as the major source of electricity for Ontario. The Ontario government should not be deterred by Hillier’s extreme rhetoric and it should stay the course with renewable energy. The fact that temporary higher rates for renewable investors have been successful in getting people to invest in renewable energy is more good news. Our children and grandchildren will thank us for doing the right thing for the environment and saving Ontario residents from the huge rate increases which new nuclear plants would bring.

COMMENTARY
Learning about Lyme disease Editorial – It seems as though there are many dangers lurking around every corner for those who enjoy the great outdoors this summer. We’re urged to take cover from the sun, beware of brushing against poison parsnip and also to protect ourselves from those dreaded mosquito bites. But there’s one more little bug we should be on alert for: the black-legged tick. Also known as a deer tick, these critters reside in bushes and tall grass, waiting to attach themselves to a person or animal’s skin. It’s often hard to notice when one has been bit by a tick as the bites are normally painless. In fact, according to the Ontario Ministry of health and Long-Term Care, those who have been infected may not notice the rash (in the shape of a bull’s eye) for up to 55 days after. While tick bites don’t normally hurt, those bugs could be exposing us to Lyme disease, a serious and sometimes fatal illness. This disease takes on similar symptoms as the flu, causing headaches, fatigue, joint and muscle pain. If caught early, the disease is easily treated. Not all ticks carry Lyme disease, but the ones that do have been detected in Ontario, including along the shores of the St. Lawrence River. However, the risk of Lyme disease doesn’t mean you have to spend the summer inside. By following a few tips, including avoiding shrubs and areas with tall grass; wearing bug repellent containing DEET; covering up in areas known to have ticks; as well as donning white or light-coloured clothing to spot the ticks, you can ensure you are protecting yourself and your family from the nasty bites. To find out more on how to protect yourself, visit www. ontario.ca/lyme.
Father’s patience runs out during summer picnic Lifestyle – All Mother needed for an excuse to have a picnic was a sunny and hot Sunday afternoon. After church, of course. Father, who thought the whole idea was nonsense, when you could spend the afternoon, having a little nap in the grape arbour. “That once-a -year church picnic is enough for me,” he lamented. Father’s resting in the summer often moved him from the rocking chair in the kitchen with his feet on the oven door of the Findlay Oval, to the grape arbour, where an old lawn chair and the two-seater swing sat in the cool haven of the overhanging grape leaves. But of course, as for the Sunday picnic, Mother overruled and we five children were thrilled beyond belief...we would be spending the afternoon on the banks of the Bonnecherre. It was a hefty walk to get to the river, overloaded as we were with baskets of lunch, bats and balls, our swim suits and towels, Mother’s newspapers, scrap books and diaries, and always I had to take at least
one doll with me too. As long as Father had his pipe and a good supply of tobacco that was about all he was interested in lugging down to the Bonnechere. The cook stove would be allowed to go out on Saturday night. That meant a cold breakfast, which further annoyed Father, who didn’t consider any meal worth pulling a chair up to the table for, unless it included meat and potatoes as part of the menu. But Mother let the stove die down because that meant a nice cool kitchen when we got back from our picnic on Sunday, a rare treat from a stove that blasted out blistering heat waves 24 hours a day every other day of the week. As soon as we got back from church, and while the boys and Father tended to the last minute chores at the barn, Audrey and Mother would haul out of the ice box bowls of food that had been prepared the night before. This meant hard boiled eggs, mashed fine, sliced cold pork and roast beef, cucumbers, lettuce and tomatoes, and of course, a slab Vice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 104

the river, and where there was a wide grassy bank and more trees. My sister Audrey spread out two blankets and covered the little wagon with another to keep the lunch as cold as possible. Wearing short pants for bathing suits, my brothers were in the water almost as soon as we hit the river, Mother had propped herself against a tree with her books and papers spread around her, Audrey and I hid behind a tree and stripped off our clothes and got into two suits Aunt Freda had sent us from Chicago. They were scratchy, made of pure wool, and as soon as they were wet, went as hard as cement, but they were all we had. Father walked around with his pipe hanging out of his mouth, not looking at all pleased. He asked Mother when she planned on taking out the lunch, lamenting that what he had for breakfast couldn’t really be called a decent meal. Mother said lunch was a long way off, and he might as well settle down and have a little nap.

The afternoon wore on. Emerson said he didn’t care if we ever went back home. The three boys had water fights, tried to catch fish with a makeshift pole, and jumped off the fallen tree to see who could land the farthest. Audrey was reading her books gotten from the Renfrew Library and I was playing with my doll, pretending she was a brand new baby and this was her first outing on a picnic. Well, Father never did settle down for a nap. He walked the shoreline, he lit and relit his pipe, and when he finally sat down with his back against a tree, he never took his eyes off the blanket covering the lunch. “Think I’ll head back to the barns to check on that cow that didn’t look too good this morning,” he said. Even though we had yet to eat the lunch, I knew Father wouldn’t be back. And I knew too, the cow had little to do with it.

everything was packed onto the little red wagon, Father still hadn’t come back. Mother assured me he would be just fine. “He just doesn’t like picnics,” she said. We gathered up our belongings and started for home. I saw it before anyone else. There was smoke coming out of the chimney over our house! Mother just let out a long and laboured sigh when I pointed it out to her. We opened the kitchen door to blazing heat, and there was Father sitting at the old pine table. He hadn’t bothered taking off his straw hat, and
in front of him was a dinner plate piled high with fried potatoes, slabs of salt pork, and enough buttered bread to feed a family of six! The white granite teapot was boiling on the stove, and Father had opened a jar of preserves and they weren’t in a fruit nappy, but in a soup bowl! “Well, so much for a nice cool kitchen,” was all Mother said. Finally, Father stopped shovelling in his food long enough to look up from his plate and say to Mother. “A man can’t be expected to work from dawn to dusk and survive on a sandwich and a piece of cake,” and would then take another long slurp of hot tea from his saucer.

The testing used in Ontario has been identified as unreliable in other jurisdictions and scrapped in favour of a more reliable testing regime. “I was aware there was a concern with how we diagnose and treat Lyme disease patients in Ontario, which is why I started the petition. The level of interest and support I received, not only from people across the province, but also from across the country was beyond my expectations,” said Hillier.

News – Lanark-FrontenacLennox and Addington MPP Randy Hillier recently introduced a petition to the Legislative Assembly asking the Ontario government to take action against chronic Lyme disease. “In Ontario, OHIP does not cover those specific tests that can provide an accurate clinical diagnosis; instead the test we fund is reputed to provide false negatives in up to 95 per cent of cases,” remarked Hillier. “Scientifically validated treatment options are not currently available in Ontario, and Ontario victims are forced to seek treatments in the United States and Europe; this is unacceptable.” Chronic Lyme disease

Province increasing local control in renewable energy development EMC News – Ontario is increasing local control over future renewable energy projects to support municipalities and secure the province’s clean energy future. Working with the Ontario Power Authority (OPA) and municipalities, the province will develop a competitive procurement process for renewable projects over 500 kilowatts (kW). The new process will replace the existing large project stream of the Feed-In Tar-
iff (FIT) program and better meet the needs of communities. It will require energy planners and developers to work directly with municipalities to identify appropriate locations and site requirements for any future large renewable energy project. “Ontario is committed to building clean, reliable energy to support our families, businesses, schools and hospitals,” stated Bob Chiarelli, Ontario Minister of Energy. “It’s also clear that
we need to make changes to increase local control over the siting of renewable energy projects. These changes will give communities and municipalities a stronger voice, more options and new tools when it comes to renewable energy.” To further strengthen municipal participation and support communities, Ontario will: • Revise the Small FIT program rules for projects between 10 and 500 kW to give priority to projects partnered or led
by municipalities. • Work with municipalities to determine a property tax rate increase for wind turbine towers. • Provide funding to help small and medium-sized municipalities develop Municipal Energy Plans – which will focus on increasing conservation and helping to identify the best energy infrastructure options for a community. Ontario is also renewing its commitment to small renewable energy projects
by making 900 megawatts (MW) of new capacity available, between now and 2018, for the Small FIT and microFIT programs. This fall, the OPA will open a new procurement window for both programs, and starting in 2014, annual procurement targets will be set at 150 MW for Small FIT and 50 MW for microFIT. These measures are expected to create 6,400 jobs and produce enough electricity each year for more than 125,000 homes.

Take charge of your seasonal allergies In addition to the above mentioned treatment, your naturopathic doctor will also work to uncover the root cause of your allergies, and address issues that may worsen your seasonal allergies, such as stress, weakened immune system, etc. Please contact a naturopathic doctor if you are interested in an individualized protocol for your allergies.

EMC Lifestyle – Is the season getting you down? Allergy season is here, and in fact for many of you, it may have started in the spring and won’t go away until the fall. Seasonal allergies occur because of an overreaction of your immune system to things in the air (pollen, mould, ragweed, grass); this causes the release of histamine in the body and results in those annoying allergy symptoms. If you are one of the many that suffer from seasonal allergies, then you know all about the sneezing, the watery eyes, the postnasal drip and the constant itchy nose, which sometimes seems unbearable. Many rely on medications such as antihistamines, decongestants or inhalers to get them through the worst but, unfortunately, a lot of these medications come with some noticeable side effects like drowsiness, fatigue, dry mucous membranes, etc. There must be alternatives out there? Naturopathic medicine offers a wonderful array of therapies to help ease allergy symptoms while at the same time addressing the overacting immune system. Treatments may include nutrition, herbal medicines, acupuncture and homeopathics. Although I usually start pre-
paring my patients a few months prior to the season, there are some very easy, basic and essential things that help get them through the toughest times: • Remember to drink lots of water. Being fully hydrated naturally helps to cleanse the body. • Keep your nasal passages clean. Using a warm saline rinse daily during allergy season helps to clean out the sinuses from pollen, dust, and various allergens as well as reduce congestion. A Neti Pot is great for this and you can get one at your local pharmacy. • Avoid mucous forming foods, including dairy, sugar and bananas. • Eliminate hydrogenated fats which contribute to inflammation. Instead, try to increase your consumption of omega-3 fats (found in fish and walnuts), which are naturally anti-inflammatory. • Add vitamin C and pair it with a bioflavonoid such as quercetin or grape seed extract for its natural anti-histamine action. • Nettle tea (from the stinging nettle plant) – this is a wonderful herb that has properties that are anti-inflammatory as well as anti-allergic; nettle helps to stabilize our mast cells – the ones that produce histamine and cause those nasty allergy symptoms.

EMC News – Lanark County officials continue to investigate after an incident involving a 9-1-1 emergency call that went unanswered. “Public safety is paramount, and we want to ensure our citizens will receive emergency help when they need it,� said Bill Dobson, Lanark County warden (Montague reeve). “We are waiting for official answers from Bell Canada and the Ontario Provincial Police as to why the system failed. They have assured us this was a technical problem that has never happened before and they are working on ensuring it will not happen again. We need this is writing.� Lanark County has a contract for 9-1-1 call-answering services with the Ontario Provincial Police, who operate a Central Emergency Reporting Bureau (CERB) in North Bay. The service is provided in conjunction with Bell Canada. Emergency calls to 9-1-1 are answered at the CERB and then rerouted to the appropriate responding agencies, whether it is police, fire or ambulance. On July 5, a 9-1-1 call for an ambulance went unanswered in the Clayton area. A citizen then called the local (Mississippi Mills) fire chief, Art Brown, who was able to contact ambulance dispatch from his portable radio and send help. Lanark County chief administrative officer Kurt Greaves said the outage occurred from 7:50 to 8:32 a.m. on July 5. “Chief Brown contacted the county’s emergency services coordinator, Rick Hannah, just after 8 a.m., and he immediately contacted the CERB in North Bay,� he said. “They were already aware of the problem and had it fixed immediately, which Chief Brown verified.� He added follow-up discussions with the OPP indicated no other similar incidents were reported here. Hannah said he is expecting information from Bell Canada and the OPP shortly regarding the nature of the technical problem. “We’re still investigating. Once the problem is identified, they can confirm what measures have been taken to prevent it from happening again. The 9-1-1 system has been very reliable and people should continue to use it,� Hannah concluded. The county will provide further information as it becomes available. Submitted by the County of Lanark.
SAFETY TIPS Smoke Alarms: Test your smoke alarms. If a fire starts in your home while you are asleep, you want to know about it immediately. Some homes are equipped with electrically-connected smoke alarms that may not work when the power is out. Make sure your home has a battery-operated smoke alarm on every level.

Expanded Gil Read memorial tournament brings 12 fastpitch teams to Carp By JEFF MAGUIRE
Sports – The success of the ‘Gil Read Memorial Fastpitch Tournament’ has created more interest and that will be reflected this year as the competition will feature a dozen teams, including some of the best on the continent. The expanded, sixth annual men’s tournament opens Friday night, July 26 in Carp and continues all day Saturday (July 27) before concluding with the championship game late Sunday (July 28). Among the entrants are Quebec powerhouse Donnaconna Blue Sox, Elkland Thunderbellys, a top-flight squad from Pennsylvania along with two teams from Napanee and a new participant, the Sharon (Ontario) Lake Simcoe Lightning. Sharon was champions of the Oshawa City and District Fastball League last season. Seven teams from the Greater Ottawa Fastball League (GOFL) should create plenty of interest. Among them are local favourites Carp I4C Victory and Fitzroy Harbour West Carleton Electric who will battle it out in the same pool (division). The GOFL contingent will be led by three-time defending league champion Kars Aces. Kars, the perennial district champions, currently leads the South Division of the eight-team league. Joining the local loop this season is Micksburg Twins from the Pembroke area in the Upper Ottawa Valley. Twins have made a major impression in their first GOFL season. They lead the North Division and the entire league at this stage of the campaign with an impressive 9-2
record. “It’s been a long ride but this year, for the first time, we were able to reach our goal of 12 teams for the tournament,” says Chris Read, son of the late Gil Read and one of the chief organizers of the competition. Gil Read died tragically in 2007 and the competition, to honour the memory of the long-time fastball coach, began at Carlington Park in Ottawa the following year. The event was moved to Carp in 2010 to take advantage of superior facilities at the village’s popular fairgrounds. “We actually had 16 teams who expressed interest this year. But we decided to go with 12. Still, it’s good for the future that so many teams are interested in our tournament now,” Read observes. Last July the always highly rated Toronto Gators swept to victory in the fifth annual Gil Read classic in Carp, winning all six of their outings. They doubled Kars 8-4 in the championship game of the then 10team tournament. Unfortunately Gators are not available to defend their title this July. But it’s expected Sharon Lightning will be a worthy new entry. Lightning, along with Micksburg, are first-time entrants. “It’s too bad (Toronto) Gators had a conflict. But with Donnaconna, Elkland and Sharon we have some worthy competitors,” Read explains. “It promises to be a really good weekend.”
will be four round-robin games played Friday night and 14 on Saturday (July 27). The top two clubs in each division, plus two wild cards, will advance to the playoffs on Sunday. All teams will seed according to a tie-breaking formula agreed on prior to the competition, Read observes. With eight teams left in the event four sudden death, quarter final games will be played Sunday morning. At 1 p.m. the est surviving seed will battle the lowest survivor in one semi-final. At the same time the remaining teams dual for the other place in the final. The championship game is set for 3:30 p.m. (time approximate). To add a little spice to the proceedings on the final day of the venture, a home run derby has been scheduled. It will take place between the quarter final and semi-final games on Sunday. As mentioned, this marks the fourth straight year the competition will be staged at the expansive fairgrounds in the village of Carp in the West Carleton section of Ottawa. All funds raised during the competition will go to assist underprivileged children who wish to play organized sports. “We now have applications from people who are looking for financial assistance and we have a committee in place to consider the applications,” Read notes.

moving in the right direction.” In terms of the sport of fastball itself, the quality of the teams participating is the indicator of the tournament’s growing reputation. Donnacona (Quebec City area) won the 2011 competition. Elkland Thunderbellys (Elkland is located in north-central Pennsylvania) have enjoyed strong success over the years. They are making their second straight appearance in the Gil Read memorial. Ottawa Team Easton Thunder (now Kars) captured the first two events in 2008 and 2009. The Lake Ontario area town of Napanee will be represented by the well regarded Napanee Express organization. They will field both Senior and Junior teams in the tournament this year. Besides Carp, Fitzroy Harbour, Kars and Micksburg the other three
GOFL entries are Stittsville 56ers, Manotick Taylor’s Blitz and Barrhaven Broadway Blues. Pool A will include Carp and Fitzroy along with Micksburg and Napanee Juniors. Pool B will be comprised of Donnacona, Elkland, Stittsville and Manotick. Rounding out the event in Pool C is Sharon, Kars, Barrhaven and Napanee Seniors. The opening night schedule will see league rivals face-off. Stittsville plays Manotick and Kars takes on Barrhaven. Both games are scheduled for 7 p.m. At 9 p.m. host Carp faces Micksburg while Fitzroy Harbour will tangle with Napanee Juniors. The remaining four teams will be featured in the opening games SaturSee FASTPITCH page 23

day. At 8 a.m. what promises to be a classic showdown involving Donnacona and Elkland takes place. At 9 a.m., Lake Simcoe and Napanee Seniors will clash. Those games will be followed by a dozen more round-robin match-ups Saturday.
The tournament’s namesake, the late Gil Read, led three men’s teams to the Canadian championships in 1993, 1995 and again in 1999. He also coached Team Ontario to gold medals at
the 1997, 2001 and 2005 Canada Summer Games. Carp is easily accessible via Highway 417 while Kanata residents can use March Road to reach the community. There is unlimited free
parking on the expansive fairgrounds. Anyone interested in the tournament or those wishing to become a sponsor or make a donation can call Chris Read at 613-2927379 or contact him by

Tempting purse The tournament winner will pocket $1,800 while the runner-up takes home $700. The third and fourth place entries will each receive $250. Read feels they have achieved a major goal by reaching an enrolment of 12 teams this year. The lowest number was eight clubs at the first tournament in 2008. The highest entry levels came in 2010 and 2011 when 10 teams participated. Another big objective is additional corporate sponsorship. “We have some really good sponsors who are back with us again this year. We really appreciate their involvement. We are learning more about how to achieve the necessary sponsorship,” he outlines. This is the fourth straight showdown to take place at Carp Fairgrounds which has a reputation as an excellent tournament venue. Fastball fans from Eastern Ontario and West Quebec will have an opportunity to see some of the top fastball players in the region do battle on two diamonds. The venture was moved to Carp in 2010 in hopes of attracting more fans and increase revenues. The tournament was a com-
plete success. The foundation nearly doubled the profit from 2009 and that upward trend has continued the past two years. Chris and his cousin Al Read, who plays for Carp 14C Victory, are once again heading the organizing committee. They are hoping for clear skies as the event approaches. “If we get the (good) weather we’re confident it will be another good tournament,” Al says. The Read cousins encourage area fans to come out and watch some excellent fastball in Carp this weekend. Kars (formerly Team Easton) has captured eight of the last 10 championships in GOFL and its predecessor the Kemptville Men’s Fastball League. Team Easton swept to five straight titles between 2003 and 2007. Stittsville 56ers, who will also compete in Carp, won back-to-back GOFL crowns in 2008 and 2009. Aces returned to the winner’s podium the past three campaigns. Those who attend the tournament will find a large refreshment tent on site and food (hot dogs and hamburgers) will be available all weekend. A day pass for the tournament is $5 per person while a weekend pass is $10. Children under 12 years of age will be admitted free and there will be lots of activities on site for youngsters. All proceeds will go to the Gil Read Memorial Foundation which helps children who are less fortunate compete in sports across the City of Ottawa.

Hockey Hall of Fame harbours interesting facts about area athletes By the way, do you know what Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official summer sport is? Watch for the answer next week in this space! This was my second visit to the Hockey Hall of Fame. The first was in the early 1980s when I toured the former hall which was then located at Exhibition Place, the complex which also encompassed Exhibition Stadium, the former home of baseballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Toronto Blue Jays and footballâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Toronto Argonauts. The 200 acre property, near the shore of Lake Ontario, continues to host the Canadian National Exhibition (CNE) from mid-August to Labour Day every year. The hall â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it was then called â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;International Hockey Hall of Fameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was originally founded in Kingston in 1943. The first class of members were inducted in 1945. However the NHL withdrew support for the facility and in 1958 it moved to Toronto where the first permanent building opened at the CNE in 1961. As I recall the previous hall had some interesting exhibits including many of the same artifacts and objects which are now showcased at the corner of Front and Yonge Streets in downtown Toronto. But the earlier location was much smaller and it was also pretty bland. I would describe it as lifeless! That certainly canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be said

of the current building which is located in a former Bank of Montreal premises. It has been expertly turned into an interesting and entertaining hockey museum. Fans can also access all kinds of information on the game, its origins and the top players to ever play the sport. The impressive collection of artifacts, records and memorabilia continues to grow. Interesting facts Of course in a society which prides itself on instant communication and easy access to information (especially via the worldwide web) hockey fans can find all sorts of interesting facts and trivia in the Hockey Hall of Fame. The interactive content of the facility allows visitors to quickly locate data about past players from every community in Canada. I was pleasantly surprised to find so much information at my fingertips, literally. I was also in for one major shock! My son Craig was the first to find the computer which stores all of the information

on past NHL players as well as the awards many of them have won over the years. They are listed first by province and then by their home communities. Just out of interest Craig scrolled through the list of Ontario communities until he found Carleton Place, where he and his sister grew up and where my wife and I have lived for over 37 years. Evidently a person must have been born in the community in question
Orville â&#x20AC;&#x153;Battâ&#x20AC;? Phillips who was born in Carleton Place in 1902. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not difficult to find some information on Stewart and Phillips. Just enter their names as hockey players in any computer search engine. Stewart was a goaltender who played 77 NHL games, all for the Boston Bruins, between 1923 and 1927.

EMC Lifestyle â&#x20AC;&#x201C; With the (shortened) National Hockey League (NHL) season now history it may seem unusual to some that I have chosen this week to write about the Hockey Hall of Fame. On the other hand if you are a hockey fan and you happen to visit Toronto, Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest city, this summer then the hall of fame is a natural point of interest to add to your itinerary. Some people erroneously refer to the facility as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;NHL Hall of Fame.â&#x20AC;? True, the NHL and its interesting history take up the lionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s share of the exhibit space in the impressive, historic building which is now home to the hall. The institution is dedicated to the game of hockey at every level. There are reminders of leagues which long ago passed into the annals of history. Junior, senior, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and international hockey are all spotlighted. There are also some excellent interactive displays. Youngsters can entertain themselves by playing a high tech version of road hockey. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re invited to shoot at a target or play goaltender as a machine peppers them with â&#x20AC;&#x153;softâ&#x20AC;? pucks. There are even stands for spectators to watch the action. A lot of fun for children and their families and a great boost for Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official winter sport.

Stewart’s Boston career (nearly three seasons long) saw him record 30 wins, 41 losses and five ties. He rang up 10 shutouts and a very respectable goals against average (GAA) of 2:45. In fact his GAA is the fifth best in Bruins’ history for any net minder who played 75 games or more. Stewart was a dentist in Hamilton in the offseason. My guess is that dentistry became his fulltime profession when he left the game. He died in January 1973 at the age of 77. There is less information about Phillips readily available. Then again his NHL career was far less auspicious. He played hockey from 1922 until 1942 but appeared in just 28 NHL games for the former Montreal Maroons. I will endeavour to find more details about his life. What astonished Craig and I, however, was to find that a Carleton Place native is inducted in the Hockey Hall of Fame. As a newspaper writer I have followed hockey in Carleton Place closely since we moved to the community. But I had never heard of James Cooper Smeaton until our early July visit to the hall. That’s possibly because he made his mark in the sport as a referee. Smeaton also played the game and he once served as an NHL coach too. He was born July 22, 1890. When he was just three years old the
Smeaton family moved from Carleton Place to the Montreal suburb of Westmount. Cooper, as he was called, was an all-round athlete in his youth. In his teens he began refereeing hockey and that turned out to be his calling. To our amazement we discovered that he was the NHL’s first referee-inchief. He held the position from the formation of the league in 1917 until 1937, a full 20 years. From 1946 until his death in Montreal (on Oct. 3, 1978) Cooper Smeaton served as a Stanley Cup trustee. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1961. Smeaton’s life story is intriguing. He was a hero during the First World War. In the NHL he also has the distinction of being the first and only head coach of the former Philadelphia Quakers. The club played just one season (1930-31). There’s a lot more to Smeaton’s history; too much for me to detail here. My recommendation for any hockey fan in the readership area of this newspaper is to visit the Hockey Hall of Fame and look up your hometown or the community where you currently live. Chances are you will be as pleasantly surprised, just as we were during our visit! If you have any comments or questions for Jeff Maguire he can be reached by email at: jeffrey.maguire@rogers.com.

Almonte resident revolutionizes fried food with new technology By KELLY KENT kkent@perfprint.ca
Business – Do you believe in destiny? Ed Atwell, the creator of a new technology that could change the way we think about food, says that he does: he believes that everything in his life, from each new hardship he had to overcome to every job he had to work, has led him down the path that allowed him to build his current success. Atwell, 46, owner of Health Food Technologies Inc. (HFT) in Almonte, has created a new piece of equipment that changes the process of the way food is fried and, in turn, has found a way to cut out 50 to 70 per cent of the fat. “This is the future of the way food will be cooked,” he said. “This is the first step in either changing the curve of or even curing obesity.” The new technology, which Atwell began securing patents for four or five years ago, uses a new process for frying food that allows less oil to be absorbed by the product, therefore reducing the overall fat content by more than half. Every Friday for the last few weeks starting at 8 a.m., Atwell has been selling donuts out of his shop on Industrial Avenue in Almonte. The donuts are made with the same batter that Tim Hortons uses, according to Atwell, and are fried in the same oil; however, since the donuts are cooked in this new process, the donuts are significantly healthier. According to statistics provided by HFT, a regular chocolate cake donut from a chain like Tim Hortons will have 325 calories and 25 grams of fat, but the same donut, cooked in the same
oil but using this new technology will have just 213.5 calories and 9.4 grams of fat. The great thing about the donuts, says Atwell, is that they taste even better than the high fat kind. “Our mission statement is, ‘Expect great taste without guilt,’” he said. Atwell could not reveal too much about how the technology works or when he came up with the idea due to patent infringement concerns, but he did say that it was a unique process that began from an early age that allowed him to get to where he is today. “It took a certain sequence of events,” he said. “There have to be a certain chain of events that happen in your life to make you say, ‘That’s how you do it.’” Atwell says he has always been an inventor; it is something he was born to do. “I just love to poke at things,” he said. “I’m always thinking up things like slogans or music. I’m a very creative thinker.” Atwell’s wife, Doris, laughed as she said that he probably thinks more than the average person. “I guess I do think a lot,” said Atwell. “Sometimes my kids will have to say ‘Dad’ a few times before I’ll come back to the real world.” In addition to often pondering life’s many questions, Atwell has a knack for physics. He recalled one morning when his wife offered to make him coffee, but he was shocked to see a metal spoon resting in the mug when he walked into the kitchen. “Why was that so weird? Well, I could feel the spoon pulling the heat out of my coffee.” It was this particular set of interests that sparked his life-long

Ed Atwell, owner of Health Food Technologies Inc. in Almonte, has invented a new process for frying food that cuts the total fat by 50 to 70 per cent, potentially revolutionizing the fried food industry. love of finding problems and inventing solutions. Though it was destiny, he said, that set him down the path that would lead him to discover a way to create low-fat fried food. Food journey His journey started out at his father’s respected seafood restaurant, The Black Whale, in Cape Breton, NS. “I grew up in restaurants,” said Atwell. “Starting at the age
of five, I was working in the restaurant business.” Atwell was born in Maple, near Richmond Hill in Ontario, and grew up in Burlington, but he would spend every summer in the Maritimes, working at the restaurant. It was during this time, as he was working in the food industry from a young child to a young man in his 20s that Atwell learned the ins and outs of cooking food. It was in Nova Scotia that he
met his wife, at a birthday party when he was just five years old. They got married in 1988 and are still going strong 25 years later. “I can’t describe how much Doris has helped me throughout the years,” he said. “She has been my best friend and she has taught me how to be a better person.” But before he got married, Atwell attended high school in Vancroft and Scarborough; however, he never graduated. He spent some time working for a variety of donut shops like Country Style and Tim Hortons, gaining valuable knowledge about the way the industry worked. At some point he quit Tim Hortons, believing he was destined for bigger and better things; in hindsight, though, he says it might have been one of the worst decisions he has ever made, despite where it brought him later in life. “We had a few really tough years for a while there,” he said. “It was rough.” With all of his restaurant knowledge and donut experience on his side, as well as his love of solving problems and inventing new things, Atwell became a consultant for independent donut shops, honing his expertise even more. “All the while when I was teaching the independents, the independents were teaching me,” he said. “I didn’t realize that I was becoming a master of the trade.” Atwell had a few more ultimately unsuccessful careers, but each door that closed opened a new window of opportunity. It was a failed canteen truck business that brought Atwell and his wife back to Ontario to look for work after years of liv-
ing out east. Here, Atwell was involved in a serious car accident and broke his sternum. “It was that that got me out of baking and into mechanics,” he said. Though Atwell was a great thinker, he said he often lacked the mechanical ability to build his inventions. But, as fate would have it, he met a skilled auto mechanic who took Atwell under his wing and showed him the ropes. “I ended up becoming an okay mechanic,” he said. “But I got really good at mechanical theory and identifying problems. “What you teach yourself, eventually, is that if you stare at something long enough, you will some up with answers.” It was fate again, and perhaps a bit of luck, that brought Atwell and his wife to Almonte. Doris saw an ad in the paper for a cute house in Clayton, and the two impulsively decided to buy it after years of renting. Atwell and his wife have three children – two boys and a girl: William, 24; Faith, 18; and James, 16. “As much as I may have suffered in my life, I realize that I’ve been very lucky,” said Atwell. It was each of these key events in his life, mixed in with some good timing and a bit of dumb luck that allowed Atwell to be able to create the technology that could change the way food is cooked from now on. Atwell says that his technology is so revolutionary that the way we currently fry food will seem Neanderthal in a few years. “It will be like the shock See FRIED page A/CP7

ists, petting zoo and more. Performing live musical entertainment: Lyle Dillanough, Retro Rockers, Kirk Armstrong, Starfire, Julie Corrigan and Barry Munro and Judy Moffatt. “Councillor Jerry Flynn always organizes the entertainment,” said McOrmond, “and he does a fantastic job.” The BIA is excited to have many new vendors join the bazaar this year. “Registrations have been steady since January,” said McOrmond. Bright and early the Carleton Place Masons will be serving up an affordable pancake breakfast. The Roy Brown Museum, situated inside the historic Moore House, will also be open to visitors. The museum is the vision of the local Roy Brown Society. Captain Arthur Roy Brown, the town’s most well known resident, is the First World War flying ace officially credited with shooting down German pilot Baron Manfred von Richthofen (the Red Baron) on April 21, 1918, in the skies over war-torn France. “People typically start coming downtown between 7 and 9 a.m.,” said McOrmond. “This is when it is the most chaotic.” With community groups, restaurants and arts programs all coming together for the day, visitors will truly be able to immerse themselves in the culture of Carleton Place.

McOrmond is hoping for a day of wonderful weather. “It’s not going to rain,” she said. All dogs must be leashed, however, Bridge Street Bazaar organizers kindly ask people to leave their pets at home. “And please no bicycles,” said McOrmond. Helping hands Volunteers (adults and students) are still needed for the Bridge Street Bazaar. “We require people from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. or 3:30 to 5 p.m.,” said McOrmond, “and we need between seven and nine students.” Adults can assist with safety and getting traffic under control. Students, eligible for community service hours, can help vendors unload vehicles or set up canopies in the entertainment area. Facebook The BIA has joined the social networking site Facebook. Their page can be found online at www.facebook.com/CarletonPlaceBusinessImprovementAssociation. The page currently has 85 likes. The BIA will use Facebook as a tool to post upcoming events (like the Bridge Street Bazaar), good business stories, related articles, photos, videos and more.

Chamber invites businesses to take advantage of buy local campaign akulp@perfprint.ca
Business â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Promotion can make or break a small business and the Carleton Place & District Chamber of Commerce is offering its members a free opportunity to make the most of it. The Chamber recently launched a 12-month buy local initiative during its June 26 Business at Breakfast event at Dionysos Restaurant. One of the first aspects of that campaign to roll out are individual business/businessperson profiles of members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to get people downtown and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been working on profiles for different businesses,â&#x20AC;? explained Chamber manager Jackie Kavanagh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have six or seven done now.â&#x20AC;? The first to be completed,

Marionette workshop hosted by famous international puppeteer at Puppets Up! By KELLY KENT kkent@perfprint.ca
Events â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The magic of puppets and marionettes is something that captivates audiences of all ages. The bright colours, smooth movements and often stunning liveliness are things that make them easy to love. Well, now locals have the chance to create marionettes of their very own at the four-day Make a Marionette workshop from Aug. 6 to 9. The workshop, which will be held right before Puppets Up! International Puppet Festival, will be led by Bence Sarkadi of Bence Sarkadi Theatre of Marionettes from Budapest, Hungary, who is famous in the puppet world for his inspired performances. Puppets Up! festival producer, Nicole Guthrie, says that Almonte is very lucky to have someone of Sarkadiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s caliber doing a workshop in town. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is incredible,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Participants will be learning from a master of the craft. Sarkadi is a member of one of two acts from Hungary that will be featured at Puppets Up!, said Guthrie, and this workshop will be a once in a lifetime chance for puppet fans.
Market Square roof grand opening Aug. 14 By TARA GESNER
For $175, participants will take part in a fourday marionette workshop led by Sarkadi, who will not only teach the craft of making the puppets, but will also provide instruction on how to use them. All supplies will be included. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the end,â&#x20AC;? said Guthrie, â&#x20AC;&#x153;you will have a beautiful marionette, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to operate it as well. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great deal, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be learning from the best of the best.â&#x20AC;? The workshop will run from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day at Almonte Old Town Hall and is recommended for those aged 12 and above. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There will be some finer technical aspects that younger children may not be able to manage,â&#x20AC;? said Guthrie. Guthrie says that there is room for only 20 people in the Make a Marionette workshop, as there will be a lot of one on one instruction provided. To register for the workshop, email nyp.puppets@gmail.com. There is no deadline, but spots will fill up quickly. Guthrie says that the finished marionettes and their creators are welcome to join the Puppets Up! parade, which takes place at 1:45 p.m. during the festival.

Events â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re invited! Carleton Place residents are encouraged to come out and celebrate the grand opening of the newly completed Market Square Pavilion roof on Wednesday, Aug. 14. Festivities, beginning at 6:30 p.m., encompass live music and busker entertainment, ribbon-cutting ceremony, classic cars and barbecue supper by Leatherworks Catering. The local Business Improvement Association (BIA) and Town of Carleton Place present the event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Carleton Place BIA is thrilled the Market Square Pavilion roof has been installed,â&#x20AC;? said Cathie McOrmond, manager. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Market Square is a location for community groups, service clubs and more to host events and activities for community members and tourists. It is a complimentary addition to the downtown, bringing year round vibrancy.â&#x20AC;? The event is being held in conjunction with Carleton Place Cruise Nights. Every Wednesday evening (6 p.m. to dusk), May 1 through Sept.
11, classic cars and trucks gather at the Market Square. Participants enjoy door prizes, music, 50/50 draw and a lot of fun. All proceeds benefit the Carleton Place and District Memorial Hospital Foundation. Renwick and Associates performed the construction of the roof over the concrete slab at the Market Square Pavilion. The projectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s total cost, in excess of $150,000, is being funded by way of a variety of sources: town, BIA, Carleton Place Farmersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Market and public. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more, the Carleton Place and District Chamber of Commerce is pursuing funding ($30,000) from the Ontario Trillium Foundation for this project. Residents are invited to purchase an engraved paving stone from the municipality at a cost of $150. They will be personally inscribed and then permanently set in place at the Market Square. With a roof now over the Market Square Pavilion, the opportunities are endless: movie nights, mini festivals, arts shows, musical entertainment and much more. Moreover, a roof offers protection from the weather â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and not just rain. The Market Square is owned by the municipality and controlled by the parks and recreation department.

Community support equals $2,800 for local teenager in need By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca
EMC News – Dancing is so much more than steps and music. Three weeks ago, on July 6, dancing brought together members of the Carleton Place community, benefiting a local teenager, Clayton MacCallum. In four hours $2,800 was raised for the 15-yearold who suffers from Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS). The money will counterbalance MacCallum’s medical costs, which currently fluctuate anywhere from $300 to $500 per month. “It was truly an honour to put together the benefit dance for Clayton,” said Kory Earle, event coorganizer and the night’s emcee. The former leader of People First of Lanark County (PFoLC) worked alongside Diane Sexsmith, the organization’s executive director.
Information supplied to the Canadian Gazette by PFoLC stated CPRS is a chronic pain condition most often affecting one of the limbs (arms, legs, hands or feet), usually after an injury or trauma to that limb. CRPS is believed to be caused by damage to, or malfunction of, the peripheral and central nervous systems. The central nervous system is composed of the brain and spinal cord, and the peripheral nervous system involves nerve signaling from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. CRPS is characterized by prolonged or excessive pain and mild or dramatic changes in skin color, temperature, and/or swelling in the affected area. “Clayton’s story has touched me deeply,” said Earle. “He inspires me – and melts my heart.” The dance was held from 7 to 11 p.m. at the local Army Navy & Air Force Club, and festivities included live, local musical entertainment, door prizes, silent auction and food and drink.
“Making an appearance and speaking was Carleton-Mississippi Mills Member of Provincial Parliament (MPP) Jack MacLaren,” said Earle. The MacCallum family was thrilled and thankful for the community’s overwhelming support. Cash donations are still being accepted for MacCallum. Anyone wishing to help the teenager can stop by the PFoLC office, located at 355 Mof-
fatt St. in Carleton Place. “All donations and support will make a big difference in Clayton’s life,” said Earle. “Diane and I are truly thankful for everyone’s assistance.” “I wish them (MacCallum Family) nothing but the very best,” said Sexsmith. For additional information, contact PFoLC at 613-257-7111.

DONUT From page A/CP1
we feel when we consider that people used to smoke in doctors’ offices,” he said. In addition to being able to cut the fat content of fried food by more than half, Atwell’s technology is also more energy and cost effective. Because the product absorbs less oil, less is needed to run the machine, making it run at less cost to the manufacturer. Also, it runs at a lower temperature and requires less energy to run. The implications it could have for obesity could be huge, said Atwell. “People aren’t going to stop eating donuts, or
other fried foods,” he said. “So if we can cut the fat by half, we can theoretically cut their obesity in half.” People are already starting to buzz about Atwell’s revolutionary machine. He says he has had top chefs flying in to see the technology and is already talking with major fried food producers about getting it in their stores. Atwell says he sees his technology as the only way to fry food in the future. As for his dreams for himself for the future, he would like to someday reopen his father’s famous restaurant, and also record an album – and of course, he wants to keep inventing.

Plenty of reasons for choosing to buy local Editorial – Carleton Place is jumping on the buy local bandwagon. Recently, both the Carleton Place & District Chamber of Commerce and the local Business Improvement Association (BIA) each launched initiatives targeted at encouraging more shoppers to spend their money in town. In late June, after more than a year of work, the Chamber previewed its 12-month buy local campaign, which originally began as a partnership with the Carleton Place Farmers’ Market. Designed to stress the importance shopping choices have on your local community, aspects of the campaign will include business profiles, a highly visible brand, as well as other marketing tools such as bookmarks, shopping bags and T-shirts. Another unique part of it is the creation of the Carleton Place Buy Local Team (BLT)
trading cards, which will be distributed to customers, showcasing what the area has to offer. Similarly, the BIA is going full steam ahead on its concept for a new magazine, to be distributed through the Canadian Gazette this October. ‘The DownTOWNER’ will be chock full of information on the businesses located within the BIA district (from High Street to Coleman Street), highlighting their products and services. According to the BIA, 75 per cent of the working population in Carleton Place works outside of the community, so the magazine is an important tool to show those people what the downtown core is all about. A community’s downtown core is vital to its health and Carleton Place is lucky to have a thriving one. It doesn’t just offer retail stores and restaurants, but
residents can also mail a letter; obtain information on real estate, estate and funeral planning and interior/exterior property design; but also explore fitness opportunities; pharmacy and health care options. There’s the old adage that “you get what you pay for,” and when shopping in your local community, businesses go the extra mile for their customers. That’s what sets those establishments apart from other big box stores. While there is a place for all types of retail operations, in the downtown core, rest assured you will be greeted with a friendly smile and pleasant customer service. These are our friends and neighbours; the people who support the fundraising efforts for local institutions such as our hospital and other
non-profit organizations. Why wouldn’t you want to give them your business? A lot of work goes into campaigns such as these and the Chamber and BIA should be commended for their efforts. In the midst of a hot and humid summer, when business traffic may not be at a high point, initiatives such as these can breathe new life into the local economy. It isn’t easy to break people of their habits and while hard to believe, some residents just may not know what shopping opportunities lie in their backyard. Hopefully, these two projects will go a long way toward changing that. So next time you’re making up a shopping list to head into the city, make a convenient choice to shop at home.

Royal baby watch over; It’s a boy Opinion – Somewhere in heaven Princess Diana, or should I say granny is smiling. By now, I think everyone has heard the news about Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, wife of Diana’s son Prince William, safely delivering a boy at 4:24 p.m. on Monday, July 22. As a steadfast royalist, I am absolutely thrilled. Weighing eight pounds, six ounces, the royal offspring was born in the private Lindo Wing of St. Mary’s Hospital in London. The newest member of the Royal Family is a future sovereign of Canada. The newborn (unnamed as of press time) will be third in line to the throne after grandfather Prince Charles and father Prince William. Uncle Prince Harry is now bumped to fourth in the line of succession. On account of the birth, for the first time in nearly 120 years there are three direct male heirs during a British monarch’s reign. The last time this happened (1894) was when Queen Victoria was living at the same time as her son Edward, her grandson George and his son Edward. Because members of the Windsor Family tend to live for so long, Catherine and William’s son may not come to the throne for at least another 70 years. After all, Queen Elizabeth II is still going strong at age 87. Before the sex of Baby Cambridge was known to the world, there was absolutely no concern about his or her place in the line
of succession. Royal rules were changed earlier this year (April). The Succession Tara Firma to the Crown Act means first-born daughters will no longer be overlooked in favour of younger sons. At this point in time we wait to find out the child’s name. Personally, I like Arthur, George or Spencer (a tribute to Diana). Spencer was her maiden name. Maybe it will be John, the name of Diana’s father (the former Viscount Althorp). In the last couple of years the Royal Family has enjoyed a renewed sense of popularity, but this royal birth has definitely sealed the revival of the dynasty. My love of the Royal Family began 32 years ago. I was 11-years-old in 1981 when I watched Charles and Diana wed at St. Paul’s Cathedral on July 29. Since that fairytale day I was transfixed by the monarchy. Although I don’t claim the largest compilation of royal family memorabilia, I do possess a number of collectibles, including books, magazines, pictures, stamps, coins, scrapbooks and videos, as well as a couple of mugs, plates and trays. My most cherished items include a handful of correspondences from the Queen, Prince and Princess of Wales, Princess Anne and Prince Edward – the result of an aggressive letter writing campaign in the late eighties.

Readers note return of hummingbirds after absence Lifestyle – As I mentioned in last week’s column, about not seeing any Ruby-throated Hummingbirds in over a week, on July 13, a male hummingbird came to sip nectar from our bee balm plants. As well, in Bruce DiLabio’s Ottawa Citizen column of July 6, people had reported a lack of seeing ‘their’ regular hummingbirds. However, in his July 13 column, several readers had noted hummingbirds coming to their feeders and plants as usual. On July 13, our friend Ray Holland came for coffee. Cliff Bennett, Ray, and I listened to the
Strictly for the Birds LYNDA C. BENNETT
birds in our yard. A female Purple Finch came to the sunflower feeder, followed by a Red-breasted Nuthatch, then a Blue Jay. Two Black-capped Chickadees came to dine, and a Mourning Dove. In the woods, we heard an Eastern Wood-Pewee, a Black-throated Green Warbler, and a Scarlet Tanager. All must be nesting somewhere on our property. By
the time coffee was finished, an American Goldfinch flew by, with an American Crow calling in the distance. Don Sadler of Almonte, told me of a young bird on their lawn, that seems to follow he and his wife around. The parent birds are not present. The youngster will take water from a dish, then continues to tag along. Don thinks it might be a young American Robin. They are going to watch from inside their home, to see if the parents come to feed the youngster, and entice it away from the house. Hoping to hear the Winter Wren
sing, as it did early July 15, Georgina Doe came to visit me. Several other birds sang, including the Wood-Pewee, but no wren. The Blue Jays and Mourning Dove kept the feeders busy. The small birds of July 13 returned, and the last visitor was a juvenile male Red-winged Blackbird. Sandra Dedrick had fun watching some Blue Jays after one of our rainstorms. Their feathers were all straggly and mused up. However, they kept on feeding at her feeders.Please call Lynda Bennett at 613-256-5013 or email bennett@ magma.ca with your bird reports.
Construction continues along Lake Avenue in Carleton Place News - This upcoming week Cavanagh’s crews will be moving forward with the installation of the sanitary forcemain along Lake Avenue West from Boyd Street to Bridge Street. Crews will also begin to reconstruct the granular road base in the same area. However, the portion of Lake Avenue from Mississippi Road to Boyd Street will have crews from AECON on site to install a new gas main on Enbridge’s behalf. On Princess and Lisgar streets, construction crews will continue to establish and install the temporary overland water service to affected properties. Once the overland service has been installed and tested, the commissioning will occur. It is important for residents to be aware that there may be disruptions in the water service. These
disruptions are only temporary and Cavanagh’s crews will notify affected residents prior to the disruption in service. Work will also begin on the reconstruction of the watermain and sanitary sewers in this area. Cavanagh Construction Ltd. would like to ask for your help in ensuring a safe and efficient work zone. If it is not practical or convenient to avoid the construction zone entirely, please drive with caution and follow the directions provided by the traffic control person and the posted construction signs. We ask for everyone’s patience and cooperation during the construction season, however, should a member of the public have any concerns or questions, please contact the Town of Carleton Place public works office at 613257-2253.

Dr. Frank Murphy retiring from practice after more than 40 years Almonte family physician Dr. Frank Murphy is retiring August 13, 2013 after more than 40 years in practice. “It’s been a most enjoyable life,” Dr. Murphy says of his long career. “But it’s time to retire.” Dr. Murphy graduated from Queen’s University in Belfast, Ireland in 1969 and interned at Downpatrick Hospital the next year. “I emigrated to Canada in 1972, spent six months in Niagara Falls and arrived in Almonte in the fall of that year,” recalls Dr. Murphy. In 1976, Dr. Murphy moved into his current office location—a fine stone house at the corner of Queen and Clyde streets. Built by Dr. William Mostyn in the late 1860s, the house has also been occupied by Dr. D.P. Lynch, who practised medicine in Almonte from the late 1870’s to the early 1900’s, and by Dr. John Francis Dunn, who practised in town from 1911 until 1961. “Dr. Dunn delivered his last baby in this house at the age of 80,” says Dr. Murphy.
Reflecting on his years in practice, Dr. Murphy cites the many medical advances made over the past 40-plus years. “When I first graduated there were no ultrasounds or CT scans, and there was no advanced cardiac or trauma care,” he says. “All of these advances have vastly improved the wellbeing of patients.” Almonte General Hospital has also changed, from the 11-year old hospital building Dr. Murphy first entered in 1972 to the redeveloped Hospital
and new Fairview Manor that opened in 2008. “It is a magnificent hospital today,” says Dr. Murphy. “And the local population is being cared for by a magnificent group of young physicians.” The care of Dr. Murphy’s patients is being transferred to the Ottawa Valley Family Health Team. “On behalf of our physicians and staff, I would like to thank Dr. Murphy for his years of dedicated service to our patients and residents,” says Almonte General Hospital President & CEO Mary Wilson Trider. “We wish him a happy and healthy retirement.” Asked what he will most miss in retirement, Dr. Murphy replies, “The friendships and camaraderie with staff and patients.” “The outstanding thing about Almonte is the friendliness of the people,” he continues. “The people have changed over the years, but the friendliness has not.” Beyond a holiday in Ireland, Dr. Murphy says he is keeping his post-retirement plans open.

SMAIL â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In loving memory of a dear husband, father, grandfather, brother-inlaw and uncle, Len Smail who passed away July 28, 2009. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been 4 long years since you left us and we miss you every day, If we could just turn back the hands of time, we would tell you how much we wanted you to stay Mom joined you this year And sometimes the heartache seems more than we can bear So, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve faced some difďŹ cult times but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made it through And Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m forever grateful for the love of our heavenly father and His wisdom that provides for all our needs and dries every tear And for the love and support of my faithful friends who always seem to be there when I need them most Yet sometimes itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still hard to understand Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan So we will trust that He knows best and will hold on to that eternal hope that one day we will all be reunited in our heavenly home. We love you Len! Barb and Greg Jeff and Amy Lori, Phil, Liam and Lilly Debbie, Rich, Robbie, Heather, Dustin and Kalia Donna, Doug, Scott Stuart, Rina and Eric Fred
Another girl loves gymnastics and dance; you would love to watch her perform. The littlest monkey climbs everything in sight; heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d certainly make your heart feel warm. They have grandparents who dote on them, yes, this we know is true. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s killing us inside to know theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll grow up without you. We know youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re watching from up above, That youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve given us these four blessings; But to have you here to touch and hold them is what constantly tugs our heartstrings. We try so hard to find the words; stories about you we want to share. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just so difficult to do that, Mom; to open our hearts and leave them bare. We miss you each and every day youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re gone; a wife, mother, sister and friend. But at only 48 years young, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never accept that your life was meant to end. Loving and missing you for 11 years, Rick, Ryan, Megan and Matthew
JULY
Just inside the main entrance of the C.R. Gamble Funeral Home is a book of remembrance. Each day we turn a page in the book. The names of those we have served are inscribed on that date along with the year in which they passed away. It is our way of honouring and remembering a life that was lived. It is
also our way of saying â&#x20AC;&#x153;thank youâ&#x20AC;? to the many families who have shown conďŹ dence in us since we came to Almonte in 1973. Some families are unable to visit this book on the anniversary of the death of those they love. For this reason we are proud to publish these names weekly as our way of sayingâ&#x20AC;Śâ&#x20AC;&#x153;We Rememberâ&#x20AC;?.

GIFF, Lorne F. - July 29, 2006. Another year has flown by, Again, I turn my thoughts to Dad To Thank him for the home he gave For all the things we had. We think about the fleeting years Too quickly, gone for good It seems like only yesterday If I could go back I would. A time when Dad was always there, No matter what the weather. Always strong when things went wrong He held our lives together. He strived so hard from day to day And never once complained. With steady hands, he worked so hard And kept the family name. My life has been bountiful He taught me how to give In his firm and steadfast way He taught me how to live. We think about you always, We talk about you still, You have never been forgotten, Dad And I know you never will. We hold you close within our hearts, And there you will remain, To walk and guide us through our lives Until we meet again. Loved and missed forever, Tracy, Rob, Faith and Jack xo

GODDARD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; In loving memory of a dear husband, father and grandfather Gerald who passed away July 29, 2009 I think of you in silence, I often speak your name, But all I have are memories, And your picture in a frame, Your resting place I visit, And put flowers there with care, But no one knows the heartache, As I turn and leave you there. Your love and thoughts will always be in my heart. Loving wife Shirley Gone, dear Dad, gone forever How we miss your smiling face But you left us to remember Nothing on earth can take your place. Our happy home we once enjoyed How sweet are the memories still But death has left loneliness No one can ever fill. Always loved and forever cherished Barry (Marlene), Brian (Maggie), Brenda (Bob) and Brant (Monique) We do not need a special day To bring you to our mind, For the days we do not think of you Are very hard to find.

EMC News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A 17-yearold Almonte resident died in hospital last Monday, July 15 after being struck by a car in London, Ont. the previous day. Josie Ainsworth was crossing an intersection when a beige coloured Honda Civic travelling east-bound on Fan-
shawe Park Road entered the intersection on a green light and collided with her, according to a release from the London Police Service. Ainsworth was transported to hospital in critical condition and later succumbed to her injuries. Police were still investigating the circumstances surrounding the collision at the time of contact.

News â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Shortly after 10 a.m. on July 22, the bridge on Ramsay Concession 8 was removed by crane where it crosses the Indian River at the Mill of Kintail Conservation Area, above. The 20-metre long deck truss bridge will now be disassembled on the north side of the river crossing with scrap metal components sent for recycling. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mill of Kintailâ&#x20AC;? bridge was originally built in 1940 and has served the municipality well over its 73-year lifespan.

1241 Bellamy Mills Road, Clayton An overall picture doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do justice to the lovely pockets of colour, form and texture at 1241 Bellamy Mills Road in Clayton. Christine KartonBurns works with the natural lay of this undulating rural village lot, creating clean lines that draw oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eye to seek out the different destinations: a veggie garden here, landscaped terrace there, and in between, bursts of soft, colourful blossoms amid evergreen shrubs or patches of native plants. Mature trees provide cool shade, while mulching keeps weeds and watering needs down.

Almonte teen killed in London collision

Mom’s battle proves power of human kindness Lifestyle – A mysterious bone-eating disease that claimed a leg and threatened the life of a Cambridge mother continues to baffle Ontario doctors. But the three-year battle that saved Cathy O’Brien also tightened an extended Ottawa Valley family and proved the power of social media – and of human kindness. In 2009 it was discovered that the Appleton native had a tumor above her right knee. Suspecting cancer, oncologists began standard treatment with radiation and chemotherapy. It had no effect. With the virus spreading through the leg bones, a series of biopsies were ordered, all inconclusive. Soon the mystery ailment had riddled her bones with scores of holes, finally fracturing the femur. The pain,” Cathy recalls, “was horrific and constant.” By early 2013, four operations had led to the replacement of Cathy’s hip, femur and knee. But the aggressive infection continued to spread, inching up into her thighs over a matter of weeks. After a series of specialist meetings, frustrated doctors at Hamilton’s Juravinski Hospital and Cancer Centre concluded there was only one sure way to stop it.
“It was either lose the leg or possibly lose my life,” said Cathy, who had survived breast cancer 13 years earlier. “If the infection spread into my pelvis, doctors feared it could not be stopped.” Total amputation was scheduled for six weeks later, April 5. “I just cried. We all just cried and cried,” said Jessie, Cathy’s daughter, a Brock University sophomore. The tears soon turned to an action plan. Ontario’s provincial medical coverage will pay for up to 75 per cent of the most basic leg prosthetic, which reflects technology that hasn’t changed in decades. Cathy’s kids wanted something more for their mom. Jessie quickly tracked down data on the advanced C-Leg, a computer-enhanced prosthetic developed at the University of Calgary in 1977. Now manufactured by Germanbased Otto Bock Orthopedic Industry, the battery-powered C-Leg incorporates hydraulic cylinders, sensors and microprocessors in perhaps the most sophisticated and life-like artificial leg on the planet. The C-leg costs $55,000, a relative fortune. Cathy, an adult educator, had been unable to work for two
years, and with both children in university, her husband Jack Manson – a mid-level sales executive – realized a crippling second mortgage on their suburban house could be their only option. So, Jessie and her brother Jake rallied two tech-savvy cousins and went after the money. Within days, they had launched a web page, leg4cathyy.org that explained the cause and requested donations. A phone, Facebook and email blitz rallied members of the extended O’Brien and Manson clans, who in turn began their own fundraising. Donation jars and bottle drives were set up in university dorms. A Toronto blogger picked up on the cause and jumped in. Another young cousin convinced the Wild Wings restaurant chain to launch a month-long campaign and match any money brought in. “When I started my main goal was to raise the money needed in order to purchase my mom’s prosthetic. What I didn’t realize was it would bring so many people together. More importantly, I didn’t know this campaign would give my mom so much energy and provide a positive thing to focus on during this tragic time,” says Jessie. The money flowed in.
Not just from family, but friends of the family, distant friends, co-workers, Cathy’s doctors and nurses, university staff and students, even total strangers. Parishioners stuffed collections boxes at St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Carleton Place and Holy Name of Mary in Almonte. Within a month $47,000 was in the bank – and then the O’Brien’s threw a party that kicked it over the top. Held at Kevin Smith’s farm near where Cathy and her seven siblings were raised, the $100-per-plate dinner and dance sold out and proved a $10,000 plus money machine. “We did it,” was the subject line in Jessie’s email a day later. The campaign had raised $61,000 with time to spare. And yes, she says, “We all cried and cried.” But now it was a cry of heartfelt thanks to the hundreds of people who rallied selflessly to Cathy’s cause. Cathy is now going through weeks of physiotherapy and training in the use of her C-leg. Three years of souldraining pain is behind her and, with customary good humour, she looks to the road ahead. “What my family proved is that wonders can be done when people pull together,” she said.

Remembrance Gift Shop in Carleton Place closing after 60 years By TARA GESNER tgesner@perfprint.ca
EMC Business – It is the end of an era. After more than 60 years Remembrance Gift Shop in downtown Carleton Place will close its doors for good on Aug. 31. “There just isn’t enough money being made,” said owner Wanda Sheil. Considered the largest gift store in Lanark County, Remembrance Gift Shop carries kitchen and bath and gourmet food lines, as well as prints, crystal, glass, candles, cards, frames and party supplies. Moreover, treasures can be found for a number of special occasions: wedding, anniversary, graduation, birthday and new baby. “Our specialty lines include Bradford Exchange, Willow Tree, Boyds Bears, Precious Moments, Ashton Drake and Cherished Teddies,” said Sheil. The store’s longtime customers will be deeply missed. “They are like family,” said Sheil. “I truly appreciate their loyal support.” Realizing the economic downturn could bring about the end of her business, Sheil went back to
school (TR Leger) four years ago, becoming a personal support worker (PSW). Right after graduation the Alzheimer Society of Lanark County hired her. “For the last three years I have been working with the organization’s Day Away Program,” she said. “I love interacting and communicating with older people. I feel so fulfilled.” Balancing two careers, Sheil receives help at the store from her mother (Joyce Lowry) and daughters (Stephanie and Melinda). Faithful employees are Anne Bowes and Carole Welk. Sheil did not wish to sell the Remembrance Gift Shop name, since it had been in her family for so many years. “I retired the business,” she said. “The building was sold on June 14, and I have until the end of August (to vacate).” A women’s fashion store (everyday to special occasion clothing) will be moving in, and three apartments are being constructed upstairs. A massive going out of business sale commenced June 17, with prices slashed up to 50 per cent off. The discounts will only soar. “Everything is on sale – all stock and fixtures,
including our Christmas trees,” said Sheil. Each year Remembrance Gift Shop hosted a well-attended open house during the holiday season. Dazzling decorations included 17 illuminated Christmas trees. “These lights have been donated to the local fire department,” said Sheil. “They will be used to decorate the fire trucks during the Christmas parade.” Stock has been sold at a fair rate to other businesses, and various charities will benefit from the leftover items. “Over the years Remembrance Gift Shop has supported a number of charities and community groups,” said Sheil. Working three days a week as a PSW, Sheil hopes to take the month of September off to rest and travel to eastern Canada.
“Nothing would have been possible without the love and support of my family,” she said. “I want to thank my mother, father, three brothers, their wives, my nieces and nephews and my children.” The beginning Elizabeth Cutter, a first cousin of Sheil’s mother opened Remembrance Gift Shop on Sept. 16, 1950. “It was (located) just across the bridge, on the opposite side of the street,” said Sheil. Six years later, in 1956 another first cousin of Sheil’s mother, Edith Bowes took over. Eventually she moved the business to a bigger storefront at 109 Bridge St. See SHOP page A/CP17

“Several years later she changed location once more, moving to 113 Bridge St.,” said Sheil. “The shop always expanded with each move.” Wanting to retire, Bowes sold the business in 1975 to the brother-in-law of Sheil’s mother – Laurence Lowry. Unfortunately, he ran it for only one year. There wasn’t enough income coming in to support his family. “Retired from the government, my grandmother (Elizabeth Lowry), my father’s mother took it over,” explained Sheil. “She ran it for many, many years, until she suffered a stroke.” From the age of 13 Sheil worked at

the gift shop, gaining a range of valuable experience. In 1993 she bought the business, and moved it in 2000 to its current location – 114 Bridge St. “We needed to expand again,” said Sheil. “We were offering more merchandise.” Best wishes Several of Sheil’s long-time customers have sent thank you cards or offered best wishes by way of Facebook. “We even received one floral arrangement,” she said. “We are sorry to see you go, but you will have wonderful new adventures in the future!” read a card from Joanne,
Bernie, Adam and Ashley Pelletier. “We will always remember your lovely family owned and operated business, and the smiles and great service we received.” Another card stated: “On behalf of all who have known and loved you through the decades of serving your community with unsurpassed quality and excellence, we extend our most sincere and heartfelt gratitude and thanks. Thank you for beautifying our hearts and homes!” One more read: “Thank you for the gifts for friends – and the ‘just because’ gifts too.

Six Saltos athletes will be heading to Vegas for a national aerobic competition from July 28 to Aug. 3. Pictured are, from left: Grace Lockett, Chloe Lynn, Tessa Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Collin, Kailey Sweeney, Hannah Adrain and Alli Tolgyesi. John Catholic High School student in Peth. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 12 and this is her second trip to the nationals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awesome to be able to go,â&#x20AC;? she says. Chloe Lynn, 15 of Westport, has been in gymnastics for six years. She attends Rideau District High School and this is also her second time to the nationals.
Kailey Sweeney, 14, of Almonte, attends Almonte District High School. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been involved with gymnastics for 11 years and this will be her fifth competition â&#x20AC;&#x201C; internationally, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also been to Brazil and France for the Pan Am Games. Hannah Adrain, 15, of Perth, goes to Perth and District Collegiate Institute.
Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a six-year gymnast who will be attending her second national competition. Alli Tolgyesi, 16, is also from Almonte.

Sports â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Six young women of the Saltos Gymnastics Club in Perth are Las Vegas bound at the end of the month to take part in a national aerobic gymnastics competition. From July 28 to Aug. 3, the team will represent Canada at the Association of National Aerobic Championship. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a little nervous,â&#x20AC;? says Grace Lockett, the youngest gymnast, during practice this week. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just nine, but has been competing since she was a wee lass. Her mom, Louise Miller is the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coach. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a gym rat,â&#x20AC;? laughs Miller. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been here since she was a baby and the girls are all great with her. Grace will be the youngest member ever to represent Canada at a national competition.â&#x20AC;? The rest of the team members are at least three years older than young Grace, who is a student at Lombardy Public School, heading into Grade 4. Tessa Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Collin of Lombardy is a St.
team had some good numbers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had a great showing at nationals (last year), with top 10 finishes across the board,â&#x20AC;? says Miller. The girls will compete in six individual competitions with the oldest trio doing a team routine. They say they are excited to head to Vegas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to go swimming,â&#x20AC;? says Grace. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be staying at the Red Rock Resort. The girls have done some major fundraising throughout the season as some $1,500 is needed per athlete for this competition. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not over yet. Once they return from Vegas they will be jumping into fundraising for their next challenge, the Pan Am Games, which are in Chili this year at the end of October. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we can raise the money ($2,400 each), we hope to be able to go to the PanAm Games,â&#x20AC;? Miller says. Watch for more information on one of their fundraising ventures, a night at the races, when they head to the Carleton Raceway for an evening of entertainment.

In the last year the health care team has touched the lives of countless people and their families with their compassion, skill and expertise. Every gift you give impacts the quality of care we are able to provide. Your support purchases essential patient care equipment that is not funded by the Ministry of Health—equipment we can’t afford to be without. We count on you to help us provide quality and patient-focused care. This year the Foundation has a $341,700 commitment to the Hospital for Patient Equipment Care needs alone. Thank you—YOUR donation counts!

TIPS AND ADVICE FROM OUR LOCAL EXPERTS!
R0012225880_0725
SICK OR HEALTHY?
BROKER RENEWAL
When you are vomiting, are you sick? Or are you actually expressing health? If you had just come from a restaurant and ate something that had toxic bacteria in it, what should a healthy body respond by doing? What would happen if you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t vomit? How is that different from when you have a virus or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;stomach bugâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;? When you vomit, your body is expressing a perfectly healthy response to eliminate the toxic substance from your body. Your body knows what to do â&#x20AC;&#x201C; your body is incredibly intelligent! We just need to shift our perception of what we consider â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;healthyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. We have been brain washed to thinking that fevers, vomiting, sneezing, coughing are all signs of being sick, rather than signs of a perfectly healthy body expressing itself to eliminate intruders. Next time you vomit, or have a fever, or sneezeâ&#x20AC;Ś CELEBRATEâ&#x20AC;Ś your body just expressed a healthy response. Just imagine, what would happen if it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do that??? THEN youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d really be sick.
Question: I currently have a mortgage with my bank. Can I renew through a mortgage broker? Yes, renewing through a mortgage broker is a smart move, because a broker gets dozens of lenders â&#x20AC;&#x201C; including banks, trust companies and credit unions â&#x20AC;&#x201C; competing for your business. While most Canadians spend a lot of time and expend a lot of effort in shopping for an initial mortgage, the same is generally not the case when looking at mortgage term renewals. Omitting proper consideration at the time of renewal costs Canadians thousands of extra dollars every year. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to never accept the ďŹ rst rate offer that your existing lender sends to you in the mail around renewal time. Without any negotiation, simply signing up for the market rate on a renewal will unnecessarily cost you a lot of extra money on your mortgage. Remember that just because a lender had the best available product or rate for you when you obtained your existing mortgage doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean the same holds true in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s market.
ÂŤ Dr. Jaye Carlson Chiropractor
ÂŤ Jeannie Mongrain AMP Mortgage Agent SWING SMOOTH Over all the years Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been instructing, the most common error I see golfers do is swing too hard. The golf swing really is a fairly natural movement, and if timed well, you will see good results. There are quite a few individual movements in a golf swing; shoulder turn, weight shift, hand/wrist turn, trunk rotation, leg driveâ&#x20AC;Ś and the list goes on. All of this happens in about a second and a half. So if you swing really fast or hard, the odds of missing some of the required movements or doing them wrong, are real good. Ironically, when golfers are having a bad swing day, they tend to be unhappy, and swing too hard. When golfers are having a good swing day, they are pumped up and tend to swing to hard. We all have to make a concentrated effort to slow down. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a saying Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve used for many years that you should never forget: â&#x20AC;&#x153;HALF THE EFFORT, TWICE THE RESULTâ&#x20AC;?

SHADE TREES FOR RESIDENTIAL LOTS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; WHY ITâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S SO DIFFICULT The beneďŹ ts of planting trees are many. Cooling shade, calming rustle of leaves, fragrant ďŹ&#x201A;owers, beautiful autumn colour, habitat for birds â&#x20AC;&#x201C; these are but some of the reasons that we want to plant trees. Choosing a shade tree for home is not as simple as ďŹ rst appears. Many of the choices offered by garden centres are just not suitable. The â&#x20AC;&#x153;normalâ&#x20AC;? town lot offers up a cold shoulder to many of the obvious choices. The problem of scale is the most important issue. Many residential lots are simply not large enough to support many of the commonly available shade trees. At maturity the sugar maples or the ashes are 50 or more feet tall and have a root system so dense that the maintenance of any kind of lawn or groundcover is impossible. In an urban setting the homeowner must also ďŹ nd a location where the tree can grow free of utility wires. The root systems cannot be so aggressive as to interfere with sewer or water utilities. We then throw all sorts of pollutants at these trees in our neighbourhoods. Fireplace smoke, automobile fumes, exaggerated heat stress caused by concrete and pavement, winter road salt all present a hostile world for our little shade tree. It is important to know the stresses that the tree will encounter so that you can choose the right tree for you. An informed friend once commented that the average life of a tree in an urban setting is only seven years. It is likely that this lifespan is so short largely because bad choices are being made as to what to plant.

TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a complete medical system that has diagnosed, treated, and prevented illness for over two thousand years. While it can remedy ailments and alter states of mind, Chinese medicine can also enhance recuperative power, immunity, and pain management. In TCM, all creations contains within it Yin and Yang. These terms refer to the complementary but opposing qualities that make up everything in the natural world. Harmony of Yin and Yang means health, while disharmony leads to disease. The strategy of Chinese medicine is to restore balance between Yin and Yang by regulating the ďŹ&#x201A;ow of Qi. Qi (or Chi) represents the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;life forceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or energies that ďŹ&#x201A;ow through the body. Treatment may incorporate acupuncture, cupping, patent herbal remedies, and diet modiďŹ cation. Duration of treatment depends on the nature of the complaint, its severity, and how long it has been present. Acupuncture is based on the manipulation of Qi (energy) through the channels of the body. By inserting very ďŹ ne needles into points located on the channels, the circulation of Qi in the channels is modiďŹ ed to promote healing and health for a multitude of health concerns. Withdrawal from addictions, stress reduction, post surgical recovery, pain management, chronic fatigue, and decreased immunity and among the most researched when it comes to ďŹ nding symptomatic relief. An extensive list of conditions for which acupuncture is considered appropriate is listed by the World Health Organization of the United Nations.

ROAD HAZARDS LURK AS SUMMER DRIVING SEASON HEATS UP State FarmÂŽand Parachute remind teens and their parents about perils behind the wheel The end of the school year brings adventures on the roads for teens so State Farm is reminding young drivers and their parents to be aware of the challenges they can face behind the wheel. Auto crashes are the number one killer of teens in North America and State Farm believes that the way to combat this trend is to talk to teens about staying safe while driving. In an April 2013 literature review, Parachute, a national charitable organization dedicated to preventing injuries and saving lives, found that teens are overrepresented in vehicle collision statistics. While only 13 percent of licensed drivers in Canada are between the ages of 16 and 24 they account for an estimated 24 per cent of fatalities and 26 per cent of serious injuries on Canadaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s roads. â&#x20AC;&#x153;More needs to be done to teach teens about risky driving behaviours like driving while impaired or having too many passengers in their car,â&#x20AC;? said Chris Mullen, Director of Technology Research at State Farm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is always room for improvement when it comes to practicing safe driving; teensâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; number one priority should be paying attention to the road.â&#x20AC;?

The choices of trim today are virtually unlimited. Be it natural wood (oak, pine, birch or maple) or the most common is the paintable MDF. The baseboards and window casing come in a large variety of sizes and styles, both in a modern design or to recreate a more traditional look. You can go with a single trim application or a combination look to give a more dramatic and ornate looks. Topping off the door and windows with a header and maybe window sill extensions will add affect and accents. Just to add a little deďŹ nition and a dramatic effect crown molding can really make the difference. Be it a small nice soft and gentle line in complementary color or a big loud bold and colorful statement. Like anything else the little attention to detail can turn an average job into WOW that looks fantastic.

Williams scores three touchdowns as Ottawa Invaders roll to 58-0 win just 28 yards total offence against the Invaders. Offensively, TJ Williams tied a team record with three touchdowns, scoring on runs of 9, 20 and 19 yards. Adam Gourgon scored on a 10-yard run, and Kory Camp added a score on a 27-yard run. Jeff Hildreth threw touchdown passes to Andrew Foss and Kevin Coombs, and Leith Fisken tossed a TD pass to Brandon Weekes. Jeff Morris converted all eight touchdowns. The Invaders also scored when the Spartans conceded a safety in their end zone. Williams, who joined Kyle Kavanaugh and Danny Mullins as the only Invaders to score three touchdowns in a game,
was not the only Invader to enter the record book Saturday night. Gourgon, who led the Invaders with 62 yards on five carries, surpassed Curtis Cates to become the Invadersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; all-time leading rusher. Gourgon set the mark for most rushing yards in a season earlier this month against the TriCity Outlaws. Wendell Belony set a new team record with an 86yard kick-off return, and Morris tied his own team mark with eight extra points. Quarterbacks Hildreth and Fisken completed 10 of 11 passes for 214 yards. Their .909 completion percentage is also the best ever turned in by Invader quarterbacks. Foss caught three passes for
49 yards, while Williams had two catches for 67 yards and Jon McNulty had two receptions for 37 yards. Kevin Coombs had an 18-yard TD reception, Weekes caught a 23-yard TD pass, and Gourgon caught one pass for R0012218594_0725
Sports - If there was a turning point in the July 20 game, it was when the Ottawa Invaders came over the hill and onto Beckwith Field led by bagpiper Scott Cameron. After that, the Invaders turned in their most impressive effort of the year, beating the Sudbury Spartans 58-0 in their Northern Football Conference (NFC) match-up. The Invaders improved their record to 5-2, while the Spartans dropped to 2-5. The Invaders defence put up their second straight shutout, stopping Sudburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough, straight-up running attack. Josh Cuomo, the second leading rusher in the NFC, was held to 13 yards on 10 carries. The Spartans managed

19 yards. Craig Hodge led the defence with three tackles and a sack, while Benoit Lacasse returned a fumble for 18 yards. Zack Hamilton and Bill Fletcher and three-and-a-half tackles each, with Fletcherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tackles all coming
on the Invadersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; kick-off team. The Invaders travel to Oakville to take on the Oakville Longhorns in their final regular season game Saturday night. Submitted by the Ottawa Invaders.

Cool summer in the Arctic is ‘nice’ for many ground-nesting birds Lifestyle – The following is a report by Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists (MVFN) member Lynda Bennett on a recent talk as part of MVFN’s 2012-13 natural history lecture series ‘Nature Beneath Our Feet’ held in Almonte. Dr. Ken Abraham, wetland and waterfowl scientist with the Wildlife Research Team of the Ministry of Natural Resources, recently spoke at an MVFN meeting in Almonte. His talk ‘The Changing Face of Predation on Arctic Nesting Birds,’ focused on climate change and several remarkable groundnesting birds of the Arctic, including Red Knots, Semipalmated Plovers, Snow Geese, Eiders and Whimbrels. Some of these birds make spectacular migrations to get to the Arctic only to nest and raise young in a relatively harsh landscape. The Red Knot, a small shorebird, is a good example. In a few days it flies from the southern tip of South America to the northern tip of Canada. Tracking by satellite shows migration is on a very fixed route and feeding stops are essential. In Delaware Bay, on the Atlantic coast, they have a feeding frenzy on the eggs of Horseshoe Crabs amassing onshore, potentially doubling their weight in a few days! This resource is absolutely critical for migration. Another long-distance migrant, the Whimbrel, deals with hurricanes on its way from Brazil! Why do these birds make the long journey to the Arctic? Relief from predation is part of the answer. In a simple demonstration experiment Abrahams and colleagues placed nests along a line north from James Bay to the Arctic Ocean. The nests were subject to less predation (primarily from foxes) the farther north they were; it was 3.6 per cent less per degree of latitude northward. In this case predation appears to act as a ‘top down control’ of the nesting population. Factors shaping populations can be approached from a ‘top-down’ or ‘bottom up’ view. ‘Top down’ factors include predation, weather and disease as major factors in nest success. ‘Bot-

Ken Abrahams (standing left, being thanked by Stephen Collie then-Mississippi Valley Field Naturalists vice-president) spoke about ground-nesting Arctic birds at an MVFN lecture in Almonte enjoyed by a large audience. Ground-nesting birds do get some relief from predators in the Arctic, but they are still preyed upon by many species there including Arctic Foxes, other birds such as gulls, eagles and Parasitic Jaegers, and, as it turns out, to an increasing degree by Polar bears. tom-up’ factors include resources such as food abundance, nest sites and water availability. Although it is clear ground nesting birds do get some relief from predators in the Arctic, they are still preyed upon by many species including Arctic Foxes, other birds such as gulls, eagles and Parasitic Jaegers, and, as it turns out, to an increasing degree by Polar bears. There are complex predator-prey relationships at work in the Arctic. A common theme of the interplay of these arctic ground nesting birds and the animals who prey on them is the effects of the relative abundance (and its cyclical or
geographical variation) of the preferred prey of the predators. For example, Abrahams explained that although the Arctic Fox is a major predator of many arctic ground-nesting birds, Lemmings are actually its ‘preferred’ prey, and Snow Geese are only the ‘alternate’ prey in low Lemming years. Still other Arctic birds may only be ‘incidental’ prey for the Arctic Fox, when neither Lemmings nor Snow Geese are present in the area. Our speaker used interesting examples and illustrations to show how Arctic ground-nesting birds use the Arctic habitat to their advantage and have evolved
several strategies to ensure their nests are as successful as possible. Semipalmated Plovers, for example are: i) masters of camouflage, using the sparse landscape to hide their beige/grey spotted eggs ‘in plain sight’ on open pebbly ground, ii) masters of distraction displays, faking an ‘injured wing’ to lure prey away from vulnerable eggs or chicks, and iii) use nest associations to conceal themselves, i.e. evidence shows they benefit from nesting in close proximity to Arctic Terns whose aggressive defensive behavior discourages predators. Species such as Whimbrels nest on the ground near dwarf shrubs, or hum-
mocks using lichen and other things to disguise their nests. Early nesting, short incubation and precocious chicks are other strategies to avoid predators. For example, Red Knot hatching is synchronized and hatchlings begin foraging with parents within a day. Another strategy involving safety in numbers is the colonial nesting of the common Eider. There are more nesting Eiders in the high Arctic than in the lower and as Abrahams explained they are adapted to nesting in tight, large crèches with multiple hatchings on islands with usually few or no predators. They are tame and not used to predators, so have little defense against increasing predation by, for example, Grizzly Bears moving northwards with climate change. Even Bald Eagles, having made a comeback since the banning of DDT, can do quite a lot of damage to nesting Eiders. Abrahams concluded with further insights into how climate change is changing the ‘face’ of predation in the north. Polar bears were seen eating numerous Snow Geese eggs; they are coming to land earlier and earlier each year due to ice melting. On land they cannot access their preferred traditional prey, seals. New camera technology is helping Abrahams and other researchers get a better idea of what is going on. A camera set up opposite a Snow Goose nest revealed that even black bears are finding their way up to the low Arctic now and were seen destroying large numbers of Snow Geese eggs; and Barren Ground Caribou trample on a good number of nests. Abrahams was thanked by MVFN’s then-vice-president Stephen Collie and answered questions. MVFN’s regular series of nature talks resumes in September in Almonte.

Star-studded spy sequel captures magic, fun of first film with everyone else. Anthony Hopkins also joins in the fun as Dr. Bailey a mad scientist whose specialty is mass destruction. Without giving too much away Hopkins steals
the show with a performance that is absolute genius. It isn’t often that a sequel is able to capture the magic that made the first film so much fun, but in this case there’s
no question they’ve done it again. Red 2 is all kinds of fun and a great summer film. Mark Haskins’ column is a regular feature of the EMC.
My Take MARK HASKINS
fight scenes and gun play. There’s also some very funny one-liners, dialogue, and gags. It’s the perfect blend of action and comedy, but what really makes it worth seeing is the cast. Willis, Malkovich, Mirren, and Parker have tremendous chemistry together. They play off each other brilliantly never missing a beat. These characters are dangerous, nasty individuals, but it’s Willis, Malkovich, Mirren and Parker who make them so unbelievably cool and hilariously funny. I don’t think anyone else could pull it off the way they do. Of course they do manage to add a few members to the cast who fit right in. Catherine Zeta-Jones stepped into the role of the femme fatal perfectly, and Lee Byung-hun is the ideal candidate to play a lethal and overly aggressive assassin. They easily pulled off the whole super spy thing, but more importantly they could deliver the one-liners along

MOVIE: Red 2 STARRING: Bruce Willis, Mary Louis Parker, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Lee Byung-hun and Anthony Hopkins DIRECTOR: Dean Parisot Entertainment – I’ve been told the key to enjoying retirement is staying active. Some people take up golf, others turn to gardening while people like Frank (Bruce Willis), Marvin (John Malkovich) and Victoria (Helen Mirren) save the world. Red 2 brings them all back together to kick butt, and make us laugh while they do it. I suppose there’s no real retirement for an ex-superspy. Especially when a top secret document is leaked to the web implicating you in a massive conspiracy. Now every spy agency in the world wants Frank, Marvin, and by association Sarah (Mary Louis Parker), dead. It all comes back to a job Frank and Marvin did a long time ago dubbed Nightshade. The problem is Frank and Marvin have no idea what Nightshade is. What’s worse, Sarah has been just itching to mix things up again, and Marvin has been encouraging her. As Frank, Marvin and Sarah try to dodge the CIA, MI6, the Russians and one very angry assassin called Han (Lee Byung-hun) they have to figure out what Nightshade is. Fortunately they have Victoria on their side, and one of Frank’s old flames, Katja (Catherine Zeta-Jones), lends a hand. It’s just another game of spy versus spy where no can be trusted, and the fate of the world is at stake. Red 2 has some very slick car chases,

Every dollar invested in mentoring generates $18 return on investment
Key findings • 68 per cent reported being employed full time, compared to 58 per cent among those in the control group. The BBBS participants were also significantly more likely to have higher full-time salaries (average: $59,600 versus $52,700). • 66 per cent self-reported volunteering for community service versus 43 per cent among those in the control group. The BBBS participants reported an average of 95 hours of community service per year compared to 73 hours. • Almost eight-in-ten BBBS participants (77 per cent) self-reported they donate to charities compared to 67 per cent among those in the control group. • Average annual charitable donations were also higher ($395 versus $329). • 80 per cent self-reported pursuing a healthy lifestyle versus 72 per cent among those in the control group. • 81 per cent self-reported being financially literate compared to 70 per cent. • 47 per cent self-reported being a senior leader in their working environment compared to 32 per cent. 42 per cent strongly agreed that they were a happy person, compared to 26 per cent of those in the control group; 52
per cent strongly agreed that they make good life choices versus 39 per cent and 42 per cent strongly agreed that they had a strong network of family and friends compared to 28 per cent. “Collective action is needed to change the trajectory of young lives,” says Bruce MacDonald, president and chief executive officer of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada. “This study is sending a powerful message: the private sector, governments and individuals can support BBBS mentoring programs knowing that their investments will have a transformative effect on young lives and yield robust long-term financial returns and societal value.” The idea of collective action to invest in the future of boys and girls in need of guidance through BBBS programs is gaining strength. Three recently announced sponsorships will generate an estimated financial return of $78.3 million over 40 years. Standard Life, a sponsor of Big Brothers Big Sisters since 2009, has renewed its commitment with an investment of $1.125 million over the next five years. The funds will go towards recruiting more volunteer Big Brothers and Big Sisters. “Many causes are worthy of our support. We now have the proof that mentoring with Big Brothers Big Sisters does much to improve the quality of life in our society,” said Sophie Fortin, senior vice-president, People, Business Change and Communications, Standard Life Financial. “We’re in the business of investing for the long term. We’re proud of our commitment to the future of young Canadians and the positive effect it has on the health of our communities. This is truly one of the most R0012224644_0725
News – When it comes to hard dollar returns, few investments equal a donation to Big Brothers Big Sisters, according to a new study from The Boston Consulting Group (BCG). The research compared the life outcomes of 500 former Little Brothers and Little Sisters in Canada with a control group of individuals from similar family and economic backgrounds who did not have a Big Brother or Big Sister to mentor them as children. The study found that, over their working lives, the former “Littles” will earn on average $315,000 more than those in the control group. Four categories of differential life outcomes were examined: employment, philanthropy, life skills and general well-being. Participants in Big Brothers Big Sisters (BBBS) mentoring programs were also significantly more likely to give generously to charitable causes and volunteer their time to community work. They also achieved more positive life outcomes in the categories of life skills and personal well-being. “The BBBS Social Return on Investment Study was designed to audit the financial return to society from Big Brothers Big Sisters,” said James Tucker, a partner in Toronto at BCG, who led the research project. “We found tremendous financial value generated through higher taxes and higher spending due to increased income and increased charitable donations in time and money. Big Brothers Big Sisters mentoring programs generate an average social return on investment or SROI of $18 for every dollar invested.” For the most economically disadvantaged participants in BBBS mentoring programs the impact is even higher with an average, SROI of $23 for each dollar invested. Each former Little Brother and Little Sister involved in the research project is on track to generate an average of $32,154 in additional tax revenue; $49,819 in increased consumption; $5,856 in additional charitable volunteering and $890 in greater charitable giving. The average investment required to mentor a Little Brother or Little Sister over the average duration of a Big/Little match is $5,059.
satisfying investments we can make.” Boston Pizza, a new corporate sponsor, has also made a five-year pledge to invest a minimum of $1.5 million in BBBS mentoring programs. “We see the impact and benefit of strong mentorship in our restaurants every day as more than 22,000 young people are employed at Boston Pizza restaurants from coast-to-coast,” said Cheryl Treliving, executive director of the Boston Pizza Foundation. “This study confirms the importance of role models and mentoring, as well as the long-term impact we can have on the lives of individuals and on the health of our country and workforce.” The Government of Canada through the auspices of Citizenship and Immigration Canada is investing $1.6 million in BBBS over three years. The funds are dedicated to establishing programs to serve the mentoring needs of immigrant youth. “The Government of Canada is committed to helping newcomers succeed and prosper in their new home,” said Citizenship, Immigration and Multiculturalism Minister Jason Kenney. “We are proud to partner with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Canada to help immigrant youth integrate into their new school and community through this mentorship program.”
program based on self-reported causal assessments. BCG then translated the causal differential life outcomes into societal dollar impacts and compared them to the up-front investment on a Net Present Value (NPV) basis to generate the ROI. The study was undertaken by BCG using a combination of qualitative
and quantitative methods. The qualitative research consisted of fifty 1:1 interviews where hypotheses were tested and refined in preparation for the quantitative research. All of the quantitative research was undertaken via online survey and weighted to ensure a representative socio-economic,
demographic and sample in Canada.

A tradition well worth preserving By HOWAIDA SOROUR hsorour@perfprint.ca
News - It’s been an unusual summer so far, but thank goodness some things you can still rely on. The 147th Lombardy Fair, organized by the Lombardy Agricultural Society (LAS), is in the final days of preparation. The iconic agricultural fair will take place as always on the August long weekend, opening on Friday, Aug. 2 and running until Monday, Aug. 5. “This year, we’re introducing Mutton Busting – which is where kids get
to ride a sheep - and of course the children’s tractor pull is coming back again this year,” said Lee Lamping, general manager of the LAS. While the fair is definitely a celebration of all things agricultural, not all the shows this year are typical. “We’re introducing Creature Quest, a show with snakes, frogs, and mammals that will run twice in the morning and twice in the afternoon both Saturday and Sunday,” said Judy Drummond, president of the LAS. All the most popular events like sheep

shearing, the poultry corner and Lynn McNabb the leather lady will be back again this year. The antique farm display will be at the heritage building and Maple the milking cow is coming back to the cattle pavilion, along with the hilarious corn on the cob eating competition and the pig scramble to name but a few of the most popular activities. “Friday evening’s musical entertainment will be Little California, sponsored by Rideau Home Hardware Building Centre,” said Drummond. The fair will open on Friday afternoon at 4 p.m., and the horse and pony pull will start at 6 p.m. while Little California will take the stage from 8 p.m. until close at 9 p.m. Then on Saturday the fair will re-open at 9 a.m. and continue all day until 9 p.m. “This year we’ve added a display of (Second World War) army trucks, which I think families will enjoy and the Valley Highlands Venturers are going to be camping on the grounds all weekend,” said Drummond. The Venturers will be giving a variety of demonstrations around the theme of camping and outdoor craft, while also taking on the responsibility of recycling at the fair grounds throughout the weekend. This year the Lombardy Ladies Division’s theme is early kitchens and they are setting up a display kitchen from the 1920s, which should be quite the eyeopener for most visitors. “The ladies are also running a freewill-offering tea-room with sandwiches and tea at the agricultural hall,” said Drummond. The ever-popular tractor pull will start on Saturday at 2 p.m. and this year

Meanwhile the main stage musical entertainment will include the Doherty Brothers and Simon Clarke while the headline entertainment is Eddie and the Stingrays this year starting at 8 p.m., sponsored by the Smiths Falls Independent Grocer. “The Lombardy Fair is a 147 year
tradition that we think should be continued,” said Dan Andress, owner/operator of the Independent Grocer, “and it’s good for the community.” Sunday the gates open a little later at 10 a.m. and the highlights will be the church service led by Katherine Powel with music by The Sandhill Trio, starting at 11 a.m. in the park.

Down a slippery slope of oil choices to suit your vehicle vantage over dino due to its ability to adhere to internal engine friction surfaces and thereby reduce â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;start-upâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; wear (the wear caused in those few seconds when an engine is first started but the oil has not reached all the internal passages). The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;detergent oilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; spec is a throwback to earlier days (pre-1960s) when it was first used on a large scale. The majority of engine oil sold to retail customers has API certification. Synthetic is definitely pricier than regular oil and it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t extend your oil change intervals as synthetic oil gets just as contaminated as regular oil in any engine. Honda doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mandate synthetic oil in this vehicle but lists it as an acceptable alternative. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to use synthetic, stay away from semi-synthetic blends, because, unlike their name suggests, they contain far less than 50 per cent real synthetic oil (the actual figure is usually 15 per cent). My own preference is Mobil1 oil for synthetic, and if you plan on keeping your Honda for a long time, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d start using it at the first oil change service. And another reader slides in with an oil question (I really did get these back to back). â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hi Brian, I have concerns about motor oil. Some new cars specify the use of synthetic oil, which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been told by some mechanics, is not really necessary. Is synthetic
Car Counsellor BRIAN TURNER
oil superior to regular, and if so, to a degree that justifies the price difference? Incidentally, the oil companies have a sweet deal going (what else is new?). I buy oil (Quaker State) in 5 litre containers. My car takes 4 litres so I save one and keep doing this until I have 3 litres saved with the idea of buying 1 litre to top up. However, you can only buy the smaller amount in .946 L containers! Another plan shot to hell!â&#x20AC;? Thanks! P. R. MacKay With regards to synthetic versus regular or dino oil as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s called here are some numbers: If you average three oil changes per year over eight years of ownership you would spend roughly an extra $900 for a good quality synthetic (Mobil 1) over dino oil at average prices from national chain stores. In addition to the reduced start-up wear (see above) it also flows better in extreme cold and is less likely to create sludge in high heat. If a vehicle carries a recommendation from its manufacture to use synthetic oil, you risk the chances of having a warranty repair denied if you use regular oil. It really depends on
how long you plan on keeping a vehicle, how susceptible it is to engine wear, and if its maker recommends synthetic. From my experience I can tell you $900 wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go very far to overhaul or replace an engine, so in my humble opinion using synthetic oil is insurance and worth the extra money. The Merrickville Car Show â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Cruise and Shopâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on July 21 was smoking hot, and the weather was rather warm too. My wife and I toured the endless fields, parking lots and side streets full
of chrome from the beginning of the last century to the start of this one. The only thing warmer than the weather was the hospitality of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residents and the sweat on the volunteersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; brows. Job well done! The Merrickville event is a hard act to follow but on Sunday, July 28 the Rolling Thunder Car & Motorcycle Show will sure give a try in Smiths Falls at Lower Reach Park. Check out www. rollingthundercarclub.com for more details. If you have any questions,
opinions, or stories on anything automotive please drop me a line, [By email to emc@perfprint.ca or directly to bjoeturner@hotmail. com listing â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Question for the Car Counselorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on the subject line or by post to Record News Communications, 5 Lorne St., P.O. Box 158, Smiths Falls, ON K7A 4T1]. When using regular mail, please supply a phone number if you seek direct contact (due to volume I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always promise replies).

Lifestyle - â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hi Brian, The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Maintenance Minderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; system on my 2013 Honda Accord EXL first came on a couple of weeks ago so I had a look in my Ownerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Manual to see what oil was specified. The book says use Premium-grade 0W-20 detergent oil with an API Certification Seal on the container. A note at the bottom of the page says â&#x20AC;&#x153;You may use synthetic motor oil if it is labeled with the API Certification Seal and is the specified viscosity grade.â&#x20AC;? I always used regular detergent oil on my replaced 2003 Accord V6 and had good service so planned to do the same with this car. I asked the dealer where I bought my new car about the oil and was told they only use synthetic oil and do not carry the detergent listed. I then asked what type of oil was installed at build and they were not sure. I then called Honda Customer Service to ask what was in the engine when delivered and was told they could not tell me - I think the expression â&#x20AC;&#x153;proprietary information was usedâ&#x20AC;?. What oil do you or your fellow experts think I should use?â&#x20AC;? Thank you for your time William J. (Bill) Taylor The original factory oil in your Honda was not synthetic but a specially formulated regular (or dino) oil designed to ensure a proper break-in. After than point synthetic oil has the distinct ad-

Visit our website at www.lanarkanimals. ca.

He too eagerly awaits a new home. He has a funny little black spot on his nose and could add a little more meat to his bones.
This week’s featured pets Doc “Wanna play?” With his shapely head tipped to one side, his large brown eyes wait eagerly for an answer. Say “yes” and he’s off and running. Give him a routine to follow and his energy slows, as does he. Goodnatured Doc love dogs and people as much as playing, and when it comes to learning, he’s an excellent student. This will help him master the training he still needs. With the proper pet parents, time and patience, he’ll make his forever family proud. Due to his high energy level, he’s best suited to a home without small children.
