B urglary-Res

Burglaries can be resisted by laminated glass because it is difficult to gain access or remove property, even if a puncture is made in the interlayer. When impacted, laminated glass typically breaks safely and remains an integral part of the opening. The plastic interlayer minimizes splinters and glass fragments, reducing the risk of injury or property damage. This is also particularly important during natural disasters such as hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes.

New fund-raising Surgery wait times frustrate hospital board campaign for BGHF

By Steve Jessel

By Jack Evans

Can you name the world’s beer capital?

Page B7

News - Belleville - Quinte Health Care is making outstanding progress on most of its performance goals, but it continues to fall substantially behind in wait times for surgeries such as hip and knee replacements, cataract surgery and CT scans.

What is frustrating the four-hospital complex is that they have the personnel and capacity to resolve the problem, but it is tied up in provincial and LHIN funding.

An Invitation to all Seniors to

As reviewed by the board at the previous month’s meeting, there are quotas meted out by the LHIN for such surgeries.

In the Quinte area, the demand for them in an area with a higherthan-average aging population, the demand is rising much more rapidly than the quotas can accommodate.

“We are planning to meet with the LHIN [Local Health Initiatives Network] and try to get approval for additional funding and surgeries,” said

Chief Executive Officer Mary Clare Egberts. Meanwhile the numbers and wait times continue to bedevil Quinte Health Care’s drive to meet its goals for top quality patient care.

On the good news side, several significant goals have been achieved or exceeded, even beyond provincial norms. These include enhancing the quality and safety of patient care, creating an exceptional patient experience and effective care transitions.

News - Belleville - The Belleville General Hospital Foundation (BGHF) is making a renewed commitment to improved medical care in the community, launching a $12-million fund-raising campaign this past week to buy much-needed medical equipment.

“Together We’re Better” is a four-year campaign that officially kicked off on September 18, with a goal of outfitting Belleville General Hospital with the best equipment in Canada; $12 million is a steep goal, even over four years for a foundation that raised only $2.1 million from their annual capital fund-raising campaign in 2012, but BGHF president Bob Doyle said it’s a necessary goal. Governments do not

provide funding for new medical equipment, meaning such funds need to come from the community.

“We know that the equipment donors provide is transforming the quality of care at BGH, in many cases making the difference between life and death.” Doyle said. “We also know that so much more is possible.”

Among the equipment and funds needed are: $5 million for cancer care; $1.6 million for X-ray equipment; $1.5 million for the reprocessing department; over$ 1 million for the fracture clinic; $500,000 for non-medical equipment; $400,000 for maternal and child care and an additional $2 million for whatever new and sophisticated equipment might be developed by the end of the four-year campaign. These different projects are then prioritised according to need, with the total amount raised growing, meaning different projects being made possible.

“We want to move beyond meeting minimum annual needs, to provide the resources necessary to enable a leap forward with care at BGH,” Doyle said. “We’re energized and excited by the prospect of working with people throughout our region to make that happen.”

For the first year, much of the focus of the early stages of the campaign will focus on meeting commitments already made for this year, including new diagnostic imaging equipment and the redevelopment of

In aid of the campaign, for the first time in 12 years the BGH has launched a staff fundraising campaign, where they aim to gather support from as many staff as possible. The staff campaign, entitled “I’m In,” is a great way to demonstrate hospital staff commitment to making the campaign a success, said BGHF director of development Jenn Barrett.

“Charity starts at home, so we’ve started with our staff,” she said. “It’s to show the community that the hospital and its staff are committed to better healthcare.”

Staff fund-raising campaign chair Margie Burness shared a story from three years ago, when the BGHF were doing staff photos. She was asked why she contributed to the BGHF, to which she replied that you never know when you’ll be a patient. A year later, she said she was in one of those hospital beds for which she had helped raise money.

“I think that if patients and visitors know that staff are participating as well, the they know we’re not just looking to the community to give us donations; we want to help out as well,” she said. “Being a patient in the past I know how important it is to have this equipment.”

While attendance figures from the event are a bit of a mystery as it is a free event, Saunders said in general the chamber was happy with the turnout. “Because it’s so spread out … it’s almost impossible to come up with a number,” Saunders said. “It was a steady flow of people up and down the street that we were quite happy with.”

On the financial front, having wrestled with a projected deficit of about $10 million for the current year to bring it in line, the board is now preparing to deal with a $5 million projected deficit for next year.

Helping the board get a head start on that problem is news that some of its estimated expenditures are now projected to come in at substantially less than expected thanks to new provincial policies.

One budget line could be reduced by more than $2 million, but the precise impact on budgeting of that remains to be seen, the board was told.

Egberts added that many of the cuts and efficiencies put in place to meet the current year’s deficit will carry on into the next year and will also help reduce any projected deficit.

The board also enthused over its success in being nominated recently for the 2013 Award in Leading Governance Excellence offered through the Ontario Hospital Association. The OHA received 26 applications for the award, noted Board Chair Steve Blakely, adding: “We’re so thrilled.”

News - Belleville - Crisp autumn leaves and balmy temperatures greeted those that took in the Flavours of Fall event over the weekend, and for Bill Saunders, CEO of the Belleville Chamber of Commerce, the inclusion into Culture Days is a welcome partnership that he said the Chamber would be willing to continue in future years.

“We had a great partnership with the Culture Days committee and the Doors Open committee, so we saw larger crowds and we saw an increasing blend of people that were there,” Saunders said. “A lot of young families, people interested in the historical aspect of the older buildings in town … it was a real great mix.”

Taking place on Front Street and in Market Square in downtown Belleville, Flavours of Fall featured pumpkin carving, wagon rides, live music, live animals, and more, and local restaurants also got into the spirit by offering fall-themed dishes. S aunders said the theme this year was focused on the agricultural side of the community, and that the Chamber likes to keep things fresh by putting a different emphasis each year.

“The idea was bring the farm to town, to bring the farm to Front Street,” Saunders said. “Every year we try to have a bit of a different spin on it and this year we thought bringing in the farm animals … we thought it would be a nice

OPINION

Roads not taken

Editorial - Two governments did bold, brave things last week. One of them quit and called a new election even though it had a viable majority in parliament. The other arrested the leaders of a neo-fascist party on charges of heading a criminal gang.

And you can’t help wondering if things would have turned out a lot better if a couple of other governments had had the courage to do the same thing.

Last Saturday, the Tunisian government that has been in power since the country’s first free election in 2011 announced that it would resign.

Ennahda, the leading party in the ruling coalition, had not tried to impose its Islamic values on the whole population, and it had brought non-Islamic parties into the coalition, but the situation in the country was starting to feel like Egypt. So Ennahda quit.

Like any post-revolutionary government, Ennahda faced a huge economic challenge, and its inevitable failure to create enough jobs to meet the expectations of the young had eaten into its popular support. But what really brought it into a confrontation with the secular majority of the population was two assassinations of high-profile opposition leaders.

Nobody thinks that Ennahda was involved in the killings of Chokri Belaid last February and Mohammed Brahmi in May (both with the same pistol). At worst, people think that the government was not severe enough in cracking down on the Salafists, Islamist radicals who are widely suspected of responsibility for the murders.

In fact, the killings may really be the work of a single nutcase, or of figures from the old regime trying to subvert the new democracy, in which case even the harshest antiSalafist measures would have made no difference. Yet the first prime minister of the Ennahda-led coalition quit after Belaid’s assassination, and now the whole party is leaving office because it failed to prevent the death of Brahmi.

With many of its former voters suffering from the dire state of the economy, Ennahda will probably not win the next election (which is to be organised by a caretaker government). But Tunisia will still be a democracy, Ennahda will still be a legal party, and there will not be thousands killed by the army in the streets. Unlike Egypt.

You can find some excuses for why Egypt stumbled back into a military dictatorship last July. The Muslim Brotherhood overplayed its hand and made secular

Gwynne Dyer

Egyptians feel they were under attack. The army had been running the country for decades, and wanted to protect its many privileges. But if President Mohammed Morsi had had the wisdom to do what Ennahda has done, even at the last moment, Egypt would still be a democracy today.

And now to Greece, where the ruling coalition of centre-right and left-wing parties has taken decisive action against Europe’s most violent political movement, the neo-fascist Golden Dawn Party, over the past two weeks.

The sweep culminated in an anti-terrorism operation early last Saturday morning in which police stormed the homes of party leader Nikos Michaloliakos and five other Golden Dawn members of parliament.

Only three years ago Golden Dawn was a tiny fringe party that ranted about “subhuman foreigners” stealing Greek jobs and polluting the Greek gene pool, and got less than one per cent of the vote in the 2010 election.

Then came the debt crisis that has plunged Greece into poverty—and in last year’s election it got seven per cent of the vote.

Waving Greek flags and the party’s logo (which looks quite like a swastika), Golden Dawn’s bully-boys took over the streets, attacking immigrants, gays and leftists. It had the support of some senior police officers, and its members were arming themselves for some final confrontation. But Prime Minister Antonis Samaras’ government moved first.

“Golden Dawn tried to test the endurance of democracy,” said Public Order Minister Nikos Dendias. “Today it got an answer from state justice.” The charge sheet against the party’s senior leaders runs to nine pages, detailing instances of murder, extortion and money-laundering. If those charges stand up in court (and they probably will), Golden Dawn may well be banned.

Golden Dawn’s members openly admire Adolf Hitler, but the only reason they even know his name is that the German state failed to take similar action against his National Socialist (Nazi) party in the last years before Hitler took power in 1933.

Like Golden Dawn, the Nazis’ share of the national vote jumped sevenfold after the onset of the economic crisis in 1929, but they were still a small minority in Germany, and their violence against their opponents and the Jews gave the state ample reason to act against them.

It didn’t, and as Germany’s economic situation worsened the Nazis’ support grew further. In the 1933 election they got one-third of the vote, and Hitler was appointed Chancellor. That was the end of German democracy and much else besides.

Greece is not a great power, so what happens there matters much less, but without this prompt action it could have ended up the same way. It’s a lot easier to be wise after the fact, but it is the job of politicians to be wise before the fact. Some pass the test; others do not.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Thanks to Applefest volunteers Dear Editor, It has been said time and again that volunteers are the backbone of our communities. This sentiment was once again proven true in Brighton this past weekend through the efforts of dozens of tireless volunteers who contributed to the overwhelming success of the 39th annual Applefest. Over the last 12 months the volunteer committee met regularly to plan all of the wonderful events that thrilled thousands upon thousands of citizens and tourists at this year’s event.

Thank you to all volunteers for your tireless commitment to our community and for an extremely successful event. Finally, thank you to everyone who visited Applefest and shopped in our local stores and had something to eat at a local restaurant. We value the support you have provided our community.

Thomas Rittwage, Councillor, Municipality of Brighton

Climate change - hoax or reality?

By John Campbell Editorial - We’re doomed.

Or so it would seem, given the fifth assessment report put together by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), announced September 27.

“It is extremely likely that human influence has been the dominant cause of the observed warming since the mid-20th century,” and that warming is “unequivocal,” said the panel in making available a summary of its findings for policymakers.

The numerous climatic changes that have occurred since 1950 are “unprecedented” in so short a period, during which time “the atmosphere and ocean have warmed, the amount of snow and ice has diminished, the global mean sea level has risen and the concentrations of greenhouse gases have increased,” said Qin Dahe, co-chair of IPCC Working Group 1.

The projections for climate change to continue in the coming decades are unsettling: heat waves will occur more often and last longer, while wet regions receive more rainfall and dry regions receive less.

Oceans will warm, causing glaciers and ice sheets to shrink, resulting in sea levels around the world rising at a rate faster than has ever been experienced in the last 40 years, Dahe said.

Thomas Stocker, Dahe’s co-chair, said: “Continued emissions of greenhouse gases will cause further warming and changes in all components of the climate system.”

The IPCC still holds out hope it’s possible to head off a global disaster in the making and gathering momentum but at this stage, after decades of not doing anywhere near enough to counter what was happening, it won’t be easy.

“Limiting climate change,” Stocker warned, “will require substantial and sustained reductions of greenhouse gas emissions.”

The task verges on the impossible.

How likely is it that “substantial and sustained reductions of greenhouse gas emissions” will be achieved in a world so badly rent by political ideologies, racist beliefs, religious mania and territorial ambitions, when what is required is international co-operation of a scale not seen in human history?

This is the species, after all, that clear cuts forests, depletes the ocean’s fish populations, poisons the air, paves over fertile lands, annihilates other species, and murders its own kind for the most sordid of reasons: to satisfy mammon and base instincts.

This is the same species whose individual members form groups that choose to remain divided by centuriesold hate, that bully and suppress other segments of society, that prefer to sow tumult in budgetary matters that threatens to drive a country to financial ruin, rather

than employ compromise in service to the greater good.

It’s risible to think that totalitarian governments will ever join a global initiative to alter behaviours detrimental to the climate, when they show so little regard for their own citizens.

And what of the tea party mindset that has seized control of the agenda south of the border, does it offer hope of looking beyond its narrow interests to consider what is good for humanity as a whole?

How many of us, in fact, are prepared to make sacrifices that are sure to become onerous the longer they are put off, in order to sustain a quality of life we have come to enjoy and would be reluctant to relinquish—but will be forced to later on?

Expect the climate change deniers to challenge again the work that’s been done by IPCC, citing missteps the panel has made since its first assessment report in 1990, including a leaked exchange of emails that called into question the integrity of the process for gathering, interpreting and presenting data.

It’s the custom of deniers to attach undue weight to errors that are to be expected in a project as large as that undertaken by the panel at the request of the United Nations, and they are quick to present contrary opinions by a few members of the scientific community.

But their objections in total cannot match the authority that comes with a report that relies on a wide range of disciplines to assess, in the panel’s words, “the scientific, technical and socio-economic literature relevant to understanding climate change, its impacts and future risks, and options for adaptation and mitigation.”

The deniers argue vast sums of money and human capital will be diverted needlessly away from maintaining a strong economy to be wasted on green power technologies and programs for reasons that will ultimately prove to be a hoax or the outcome of misguided thinking.

Even if the deniers turn out to be right, the re-allocation of resources and investments will not have gone for naught, because, as writer Thomas L. Friedman has observed, transforming the economy could lead to “a real revolution” in creativity and innovation, resulting in cleaner air and water, the more efficient production of goods, and less reason to fight over resources.

However, if the deniers are wrong and nothing was done because their views held sway, “we will have a future full of droughts, floods, melting glaciers, rising sea levels, resource conflicts, massive disruptions along coastal areas all over the world,” Friedman says.

The stakes are high but the safe bet would be to listen to what the world’s leading experts on climate change have to say and act accordingly.

Grease Gala a hit

By Steve Jessel

News - Belleville - Uninformed visitors to the Sears Atrium this past weekend can be forgiven if they thought they had mistakenly stepped inside a time machine, but in reality the slicked-back hairstyles, bubblegum pink dresses, classic cars and leather jackets were all parts of the Belleville General Hospital Foundation’s highly successful Grease Gala.

“It’s the best part of the night I think, how much everyone gets into the theme,”

enthused gala co-chair Jenn Barrett.

Taking place on Saturday, September 30, just shy of 400 tickets were sold for the annual gala, which endeavours to raise much-needed funds to purchase medical equipment at BGH. In 2012 the “British Invasion” theme became a rousing success when the event raised a then event-record $260,000, but in 2013 the community did the BGHF one better. On Monday the BGHF announced the 2013 event had raised a preliminary amount of $282,000, a new standard for

an event that prides itself as a fun night out.

“We try to maintain a party atmosphere that really attracts people, and I think they’re really looking forward to coming to it,” said event co-chair Ed Lehtinen. “Each year you want to change it a little bit to keep interest, but you get a lot of the same people which is nice.”

While the event didn’t quite reach their stretch goal of $300,000, Lehtinen said it was still satisfying to see the community support after all the work that went into planning the gala.

“It’s nice for it to succeed after all the hard work that goes into it; it’s a lot of long hours,” said Lehtinen. “For it all to come together and to raise a record amount of money … it’s great.”

News - Belleville - Albert College students, faculty, staff and parents gathered on Thursday morning for their first community service event of the year in support of their annual Terry Fox Run. Beginning on the front steps of the Senior School, close to 300 people including students from Grades 1 to 12 departed from their 160 Dundas Street West location and proceeded to Zwicks Centennial Park. The younger students completed one full lap of

the waterfront trail while the older participants completed between one and three full laps of the park.

“Every September we start the year with a Terry Fox presentation and learn about the legacy of one young Canadian and how he inspired a country and the world,” said Whitney Woloshyn, Community Service Co-ordinator. “It reminds the students that one person can have a positive impact.”

“Active Citizenship is just one of the

five A’s that are emphasized at Albert College,” says Woloshyn.

“Together with Academics, Arts, Athletics and Adventure, the five A’s help students develop into well-rounded individuals.”

The goal this year is to raise $10 for every student at the school.

So far students have raised more than $1,650.

Fixing the floors

Wood flooring is a hot commodity for many homeowners. But not all flooring can be added to a home at any time of year. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because certain types of flooring employ adhesives that need temperatures inside the home to be within a certain range, and that range is often within 70o to 80o F, which makes fall a great time to install such floors. Colder temperatures can make it difficult for the flooring to dry and bond, which will prove problematic down the road. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more, many people entertain friends and family come late fall and into the holiday season, and it can be difficult to do so if you are busy installing new flooring.

Painting projects

Painting is another home improvement project that seems tailor-made for fall. A fresh coat of paint or a new color scheme around the house can give a home an entirely new look and feel.

But paint can be pungent and the aromas may last if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s applied at a time of year when it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dry while the windows are wide open. Paint fumes inside a home can make the home uninS ! the habitable, but painting at a time ofC Ayear L L Ulike fall, when you can keep the windows open during and after the project, can help air the home out.

But interior painting isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only painting project homeowners can tackle in the fall. Many exterior paints are temperature-sensitive and need the temperature outside to be above 40o F. Paint that freezes wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t dry properly, and homeowners might be left with a costly and unsightly mistake on their hands. Fall temperatures tend to be amenable to both interior and exterior painting projects, just be sure to check the weather forecast before making your first brush stroke.

Whether youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re repairing or replacing the roof, fall is a great time of year to dust off the ladder and get some work done on your roof for a variety of reasons. First and foremost, fall is ideal for roof work because you wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be up on the roof with the summer heat bearing down on you. This can make the project move along more quickly, which is especially beneficial if you are paying laborers to work on the roof. The fewer hours workers are fixing your roof, the less you will be paying in labor costs.

In addition, fixing up the roof in the fall ensures those winter storms, be it rain or snow, wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t find their way into your home via leaks. A leaky roof in winter is hard to fix, as the roof surface could be treacherous in the winter and winter winds can make it dangerous to be up on the roof at all. Addressing leaks in the fall can prevent damage to your homeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interior, which can mount up if a leaky roof is not addressed until the following spring.

High EQAO math marks for local students

News - Belleville - Students in the Hastings and Prince Edward District School Board (HPEDSB) continue to buck the provincial trend in the field of mathematics the latest EQAO test results show, but a decreas-

ing literacy competence average makes the news bittersweet for the board.

“Our students continue to make sustained, incremental growth over time. We are pleased to see the improvement in mathematics,” said Mandy Savery-Whiteway,

Director of Education for the HPEDSB. “However, the recent decrease in literacy results is concerning to us. Our teams will be examining the data to help form improvement plans to support student growth. We remain committed to providing programs to

help each student reach his or her full potential.”

Fresh on the heels of the Grade 3 and Grade 6 EQAO results being released last week, the results of the Grade 9 and 10 EQAO testing were made available September 25, and much like the younger grades the results were a mixed bag for the local school board.

On the positive side of things, the Grade 9 EQAO mathematics assessment (which is administered once per semester) show students from the 2012-2013 school year making significant strides. In applied mathematics, HPEDSB students are now a full 11 percentage points above the provincial average, including a four per cent increase from the previous EQAO testing; 55 per cent of students in the HPEDSB achieved the provincial standard of either level 3 or level 4 achievement, compared to a 44 per cent provincial average. In academic mathematics, local students showed a similar increase of four per cent

“We know that we have some important work ahead of us as teachers engage in collaborative professional learning to apply research based instructional practices to improve student literacy results.” from the previous year, bumping up the local achievement level to 86 per cent, just above the unchanged provincial average of 84 per cent.

However, the results from the Grade 10 literacy test are not as encouraging for the board. Applied just once a year, the 2012-2013 results show a three per cent decrease in students who successfully completed the assessment.

This puts the local average at 75 per cent, as compared to an 82 per cent provincial average.

“Some students were close to being successful on the test. Getting there is within their reach. Knowing where they struggled will help us to improve their skills,” said Cathy Portt, Superintendent of Education - Curriculum Services. “We know that we have some important work ahead of us as teachers engage in collaborative professional learning to apply research based instructional practices to improve student literacy results.”

According to a release, in order to more fully understand these results board staff will be examining the data as it relates to student pathways (e.g. Academic, Applied and Locally Developed), gender and special education needs. The data will then be used by school improvement teams for classroom instruction purposes across all subject areas.

A full list of the results, including a school-by-school breakdown is available online at <www.eqao.com>.

ELECTRONIC WASTE EVENT

Federal funding on its way

News - Belleville - Quinte Economic Development Commission (QEDC) Chairman Ted Reid, is pleased to announce that the Bay of Quinte Region is one of the communities across Canada to receive federal funding to support its foreign direct investment attraction efforts.

QEDC will receive $16,400 in matching funds through International Trade Canada’s Invest Canada-Community Initiatives Program (ICCI) which financially supports the efforts of regions and municipalities to attract, retain and expand foreign direct investment.

Reid noted that the funds will be used to implement many of the recommendations from the QEDC’s Jobs and Investment Growth Plan.

“There is strong competition

between communities to access this limited funding program.

The QEDC board and staff have put together a plan that has been supported by the federal government and these dollars will be used for an aggressive marketing program to help attract new foreign investment for the Quinte region.”

Reid expressed thanks to MPs Daryl Kramp and Rick Norlock for the federal government’s funding support of the QEDC’s efforts.

MP Kramp stated, “I am pleased that our government is able to support the important efforts of the Quinte Economic Development Commission to attract new investment and jobs to our community” The Quinte Economic Development Commission is

dedicated to the promotion of economic growth in the Bay of Quinte region for its member municipalities, which include the City of Belleville, the Municipality of Brighton and the City of Quinte West.

Initiatives aimed at recruiting new businesses and entrepreneurs to the Bay of Quinte Region, as well as supporting existing industries through regional strategies such as labour development programs will help to ensure that the region remains vibrant and competitive within an increasingly global context. The Quinte EDC is focused on the future ensuring that the Bay of Quinte region has the infrastructure, the labour force and the “right message” to meet the needs of the future.

Hastings County to launch sharing plan

By Jack Evans

R0012336115

News - Belleville - What started out as networking between a few municipalities toward sharing costs and services will now become a county-wide discussion.

The plan to arrange a study session involving all 14 member

municipalities of Hastings County was proposed by Reeve Owen Ketcheson and came up under new business. It was enthusiastically received by all members.

While Warden Rick Phillips suggested arranging a meeting in the spring, CAO Jim Pine, sensing

You’ve heard the saying it takes a village to raise a child, well keeping children safe is a responsibility we all share. October is Child Abuse Prevention Month which is marked by the purple ribbon campaign. Highland Shores Children’s Aid and the Quinte Children’s Foundation encourage you to learn more about how you can help to prevent child abuse and neglect in our community. We hope you’ll join in recognizing this important month by dressing in purple on October 18th or by wearing a purple ribbon during October to help raise awareness. You can also come out and cheer at the “Go Purple with the Wellington Dukes” home game on October 4th.

Several council members commented that they have been holding discussions with one or two neighbouring municipalities on items such as road materials purchasing and even fire protec-

tion and some already have some ideas in place.

Members agreed the plan could be open-ended to allow member municipalities to pick and choose collaboration only on those services they felt could benefit them.

They also agreed with one suggestion that the sharing session should involve more than just county council members, but also the local councils and officials for each municipality.

County staff will be working to arrange a date and location for what is expected to be at least one full day of discussions.

In other business, council endorsed a report from its Social Services Department on homelessness and housing. The extensive 55-page report is part of a

provincial initiative which asked for such reports to be prepared by all municipal jurisdictions for their own subsidized housing and homelessness situations.

With a current waiting list of some 1,200 applicants, which, with families involved could be several thousand, council was told there are serious issues in its jurisdiction, which also includes Belleville and Quinte West, which must be addressed.

The Housing Services Act of January 2012, which required the study, states it is intended “to preserve the administrative and funding responsibility for housing with service managers (Social Service departments) within a more flexible framework.”

The study also involves emergency housing such as shelters

like Three Oaks, low rental housing for the physically handicapped, income and work patterns and more.

Recommendations in the report include making adequate housing a first priority toward helping low income people. It also recommends that affordable housing be especially provided for in all municipal official plans, plus an obvious need for increased affordable family housing for families and for retirement living.

The report now goes to Queen’s Park for provincial study and approval.

CAO Jim Pine said funds for new housing will have to be negotiated with both senior levels of government under special programs.

Franco-Ontarian flag raised at city hall by students

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - Frenchspeaking students poured off the buses in front of city hall on September 25 to raise the Franco-Ontarian flag beside the Canadian flag.

“The French language has been present in Ontario for 350 years,” said Chantale Brisson, a teacher at Marc-Garneau.

Quinte’s three French schools in the area: Cité Jeunesse public elementary school, l’Envol Catholic elementary school and the Marc-Garneau public secondary school brought more than 350 students for this very special day for the French community.

“Francophones make an important contribution to Canadian society

and I know I am part of a dynamic community,” said Tanja MorinKovacevic, principal of Cité Jeunesse and Marc-Garneau. “I am so proud to say that I do belong in this amazing community.”

The Franco-Ontarian flag consists of two bands of green and white. The left portion has a solid light green background

with accounts receivable management companies and had held increasingly senior positions in the credit granting and recovery industries.

In layman’s terms, Stephen had a long career history in the debt collection trade.

When the opportunity presented itself to become selfemployed, Stephen investigated the Ontario Self-Employment Benefit program.

The OSEB Program is administered by Trenval Business Development Corporation for the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities and provides financial support, a 5-week inclass business training program and ongoing mentoring.

“Although I had many years experience in senior management, I had never started a business from scratch before.

R0012333837

Trenval Business Development Corporation was created in 1987 by the Federal Government to support small business and aspiring entrepreneurs. They grow our local economy by providing free business counselling, lending funds to small business, delivering entrepreneurial training and how-to workshops, as well as an expanding list of small business services and resources.

Congratulations to this Trenval client and successful Entrepreneur in Action!

A bridge is a structure that carries you over an obstacle.

When Stephen Herald, owner of Bridgeway Recovery Systems launched his business, he chose this name specifically to illustrate his desire to take clients over obstacles and have them reach a positive outcome.

He had 25 years of experience

If I wanted success, I thought I should prepare myself the best I could”.

Stephen Herald put as much effort and commitment into building a successful business for himself as he did to ensure

his business would 100% reflect the core values of the clients he served.

He is the complete opposite of that stereotypical debt collector using intimidating tactics and demeaning language. Stephen

utilizes many professional and respectful account receivable recovery methods and ensures his clients that he considers himself an extension of their good reputation. There are times that bills and payments fall behind and berating someone is not going to get the relationship back on track and monies received.

Bridgeway Recovery carries a staff of six (and expanding) that Stephen has personally trained and consistently monitors in his downtown Belleville office.

“Today we have in excess of $172 million under our administration and we have over 200 active customers and growing.” This success is due to the tireless efforts of Stephen to become a leader in his industry.

“Hanging a sign on your wall does not make a business. You make it!”

And he’s quick to show his appreciation to Trenval and the OSEB program.

“The training was absolutely essential to my current progress.

From creating a business plan to forcing me to think through my concept and make it a living entity, all areas covered by the OSEB proved beneficial.”

If you are a local business, medical, dental or law office, private venture or corporation, Stephen offers training on accounts receivable recovery strategies as well as contracting as that needed third party to collect outstanding funds.

More information is available online at www. bridgewayrecoverysystems.ca.

The Board and Staff of Trenval congratulate Stephen Herald and are glad to have been a part of his successful business journey!

Belleville Chamber of Commerce, among others.

The church hadn’t actually taken part in Doors Open for a couple years owing to low attendance numbers. This year, the decision was made to rejoin the tour, as church anniversary committee chair Rick McKee said he doesn’t feel the community knows exactly what they have under their noses.

“Everyone knows Bridge Street United Church, and I see hundreds of people walk by every day, but they’ve never been inside this building,” said McKee. “It’s to open the eyes of people of what we are really about here, and it’s more than just a church.”

The Bridge Street Church congregation was first established in 1815, and it took several years before the first frame building on Pinnacle Street was built. A new location, (the current location on the northwest corner of Bridge and Church Streets) was chosen to accommodate an expanded congregation, and a new stone building was constructed. While the building was completed by 1865, a disastrous fire gutted the building in 1886, requiring a new, refurbished and repaired building that was completed by 1887. Over the following century the congregation steadily swelled in numbers, and the church steadily added to its facilities to accommodate the growth.

“The thing is to try and preserve these churches and these old buildings … it’s

something we really need to focus on, because today, any new churches that are built aren’t built in this style,” McKee said.

In terms of music at the church, the current organ, a four-manual pipe organ with 65 ranks was installed in the church in 1956, however, after 50-odd years it isn’t in quite the same shape.

Head explained that the leather pieces of the organ typically only last about 50 years, meaning repairs totalling roughly $150,000 were needed. Much of that work is now finished, but the final stage of the restoration remains. Head said the church plans on having the final phase completed in time for the church’s 200th anniversary celebrations in 2015.

“It’s a great space,” Head said. “I really want this to be a musical hub for the city.”

The trillium is the floral symbol of Ontario with the fleur-de-lys representing the French-Canadian heritage of the Franco-Ontarian community.

News - Belleville - Visitors to the Bridge Street United Church in Belleville as part of the annual Doors Open Belleville event this past weekend were in for a bit of a treat, as church music director Terry Head gave participants a hands-on look at the over 4,000-pipe organ that sits as the centrepiece of the church’s musical equipment.

The roughly $1.8-million instrument is currently in the third stage of a three-part revitalization effort in preparation of the church’s 200th anniversary in 2015, and Head would like to see the church become a more regular music venue for the community at large.

“It’s my hope to bring even more to the community, by having concerts on a regular basis and bringing on some world renowned organists,” Head said.

Doors Open is an event that originated in France in 1984, and has since spread to countries across the world.

In 2000 the city of Toronto held the first Doors Open event in North America, and in 2002 the Ontario Heritage Trust launched Doors Open Ontario. The idea behind the event is to showcase some of the historic landmarks and heritage treasures in communities across the province, and in 2013 hundreds of communities were scheduled to take part. In Belleville, a total of 13 locations were opened to the public, including the Bridge Street Church, Belleville City Hall, and the

News - Belleville - Culture is alive and well in the city, and this past weekend the sights and sounds of the downtown core were on full display for hundreds of visitors to the second annual Belleville Culture Days. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think it was just a huge success,â&#x20AC;? said Belleville Downtown Improvement Area executive director Sarah Tummon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve heard some really great positive feedback from everyone who was involved and also from everyone who came down to take part, so I think it was really well received by Belleville.â&#x20AC;?

Launched in 2010, Culture Days is a Canada-wide initiative that raises the awareness, accessibility, participation and engagement of Canadians in the arts and cultural life of their communities. Taking place this year from September 27 to September 29 in communities across the country, the initiative revolves around free, participatory community based activities that help explore the world of artists, creators, historians, architects, curators and designers that help make a communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cultural landscape come together. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really beneďŹ cial in any

downtown core to really play up its culture, because thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where the culture is in every city,â&#x20AC;? Tummon said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the [culture] here in Belleville is really strong, and I think this past weekend was a great way to showcase that.â&#x20AC;?

In Belleville, the Culture Days events and activities explored local landmarks, visited local art galleries, absorbed the local music scene, relished in the sights and sounds of the fall season and so much more, all under the umbrella of Culture Days. In past years, several separate events, the Flavours of Fall Festival, the Downtown Belleville Art Walk and

Doors Open Belleville speciďŹ cally, had run on separate dates, but usually within the same time frame. Recently, the decision was made to amalgamate the events under the Culture Days umbrella, and Tummon said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something the BDIA would be supportive of in the future. Already, the Belleville event was named the third-largest Culture Days event in all of Ontario, something Tummon said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eager to repeat. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope that everyone really enjoyed it, and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re already looking forward to our Culture Days 2014,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And maybe weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll try to be number two in Ontario next year.â&#x20AC;?

tonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not alone in that respect. Hamilton Township is â&#x20AC;&#x153;probably the most active police services boardâ&#x20AC;? when it comes to holding public meetings but â&#x20AC;&#x153;nobody would show upâ&#x20AC;? for sessions where contributions from citizens on a new business plan was invited, Northumberland OPP Detachment Commander Inspector Doug Borton said.

In the absence of comment from community members, the police force relies on input from police services board members and statistics to determine what its commitments to certain goals are, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Certainly, we would appreciate public input on something like this,â&#x20AC;?

Mayor Mark Walas said, but â&#x20AC;&#x153;without

more research you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just off the cuff make an explanation as to why folks havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t attended here.â&#x20AC;?

As part of the current business plan, the OPP set two goals: maintaining police visibility and enhancing community involvement and interaction with youth, and reducing mischief and vandalism.

The result aimed for this year was a minimum of 35 hours of foot patrol each month during peak periods (including school day lunch periods), and increased utilization of the community policing ofďŹ ce.

A reduction of ďŹ ve per cent in the number of mischief complaints reported, based on a three-year average,

was also set.

Septemberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s monthly report showed six fewer complaints about mischief were received in August than the three-year average of nine, but the two previous months, showed increases, spiking at 16 incidents in June (the average had been ďŹ ve for 2010-2012). Four of the ďŹ rst ďŹ ve months saw a modest decline in mischief complaints, compared to the three-year average, with February showing no change.

Incidents of mischief had been on the incline, edging upward from 51 in 2010 to 58 in 2012. The goal is to reduce that number to 55 for 2013; so far there have been 42 complaints made.

Heritage Lancaster flies in for reunion

By Kate Everson

News - Trenton - The mighty Lancaster flew over 8 Wing Trenton a few times and landed on the tarmac to the delight of those celebrating the 70th anniversary of 424 Squadron on September 27.

“This Lancaster was restored after 11 years,” said one of its pilots John McLenaghan. He said this aircraft did not actually go to war but was built in 1945 just as the war ended. It was stored then converted to maritime patrol for the RCAF. “My uncle was a tailgunner in the war and he died,” John added.

“That’s part of why I’m here. I also like aviation history.”

The Lancaster is part of the collection of the Canadian Warplane Heritage museum in Hamilton, one of only two in the world capable of flying.

“It’s hard to taxi,” John noted.

“There’s only a hand brake, no

tow brakes. And there is a delay on the brakes.” He added that the Lancaster was not designed to land on asphalt but on grass fields where the brakes would not have been as much of a problem.

There are six pilots trained to fly the heritage aircraft. Museum members are able to get a ride in it several times a year and it can take four passengers. It is also involved in air shows.

John noted that they changed the lettering on the aircraft to QBA for the 424 Squadron reunion just a day before the event.

“This shows our respect for the members of that squadron,” he said.

“This squadron has a great history, outstanding.”

The Lancaster was one of the aircraft used by the squadron when it was first formed in England in wartime. Now the

squadron is a Search and Rescue operation. It demonstrated its skills with a parachute drop from a Hercules and two jumpers hoisted up by a Griffon.

There was also memorabilia inside the hangar with photographs from the past as well as souvenir “tiger squadron” stuffed animals, hats and badges. A barbecue lunch was available and The 424 Search and Rescue Squadvisitors were taxied back to the ron put on a demonstration includair force museum on a bus. ing parachutists and a hoist up to a “I came all the way from EngGriffon.

Apple growers enjoying the weather a lot more this year of Brighton, “there seems to be a large number of apples,” said Beth Siwicky.

“We had a little bit of a loss [because of frost] but nothing compared to last year”; between 50 and 100 per cent of the apple harvest, depending on the variety, was ruined, she said.

“It was pretty bad,” although some varieties, such as Silken, “did very well.”

This year the yield will be in the 90 to 95 per cent range, with the farm’s two major sellers, Macintosh and Empire, having “allaround good yields,” Siwicky said.

“It’s a pretty good crop,” she said. “It’s going to be more of a normal year.”

Last year the Madamba family’s 11-acre farm managed to harvest just 19 per cent of the crop it usually produces, which was slightly better than what was happening across Ontario, she said.

A warm spell late in March caused buds to start developing early a year ago but many were killed by a cold snap that followed in April.

There are 37 varieties of apples grown at Pieter’s, “and the reason we do that is because [as a] pickyour-own, we’re catering to a lot of different tastes,” Madamba said.

The farm draws from “a pretty wide circle,” that includes people living in Toronto, Peterborough and Belleville, she said.

News - Brighton - The weather was a help, not a hindrance, to local apple growers this year.

“It’s a good full-sized crop, much, much better [than in 2012],” said Bob Dunnett, whose orchard covers more than 100 acres at the east edge of town.

“Last year we probably had a quarter of our crop,” he said, but this season, “it’s much, much better … a bit above average.”

Jennifer Madamba, at Pieter’s Appleyard near Colborne, offered the same view.

we also don’t want to charge too much [and put the farm’s produce at a competitive disadvantage],” she said.

She and her husband Brent took over Cricklewood in the late 1980s, when it was about 20 acres. It has since been reduced to eight acres and is home to 43 varieties as well as an experimental plot for trees that have been supplied by the Ministry of Agriculture and Ontario Apple

Costs have gone up for fuel—it’s costing Dunnett more than $1,000 a week extra this year when all the tractors are running, he said—as well as for other supplies, such as fertilizer spray; “it’s like putting gold on,” Siwicky said, but the growers have kept prices in check to prevent a drop in sales.

Hooey hat trick powers Bulls to win Daniel De Sousa for a 3 - 0 Bulls lead heading into the second.

“I liked our start, but when it was 3 - 0 I thought we lacked some killer instinct,” Burnett said. “I thought we had a really good opportunity to make some real space, but [Niagara] is a hungry young club that just keeps coming at you.”

Bulls first-round draft pick Justin Lemcke brought the fans to their feet in the opening minutes of the second period, getting into a spirited fight with Niagara rookie Cody Caron, but the good news stopped there for Belleville.

Despite playing well up until that point, Bulls goalie Jason Da Silva eventually cracked under the Niagara pressure and was unable to stop the Brendan Perlini shot at 13:46 of the second period, giving the Ice Dogs new life with the score now 3 - 1.

Niagara started the third period on the powerplay, and that’s when things got interesting for the Bulls. Perlini scored his second goal of the night just over a minute into the period to pull the IceDogs within one, and he wasn’t done

Sports - Belleville - A late third-period goal by veteran forward Garrett Hooey was just enough to power the Belleville Bulls past the Niagara IceDogs Saturday night, snapping the team’s season-opening three-game losing streak. The IceDogs came back from three goals down to tie the game in the third period, but Hooey’s third goal of the night with just

13 seconds left in regulation proved to be just what the Bulls needed, giving Belleville their first win of the 2013/2014 OHL campaign.

“A win always makes the night and the next couple of days of practice a lot better and a lot easier,” said head coach George Burnett. “It’s an important win.”

Fresh off a 4 - 3 shootout loss to the Mississauga Steelheads the night before, Saturday night marked the return of fan favourite Brendan Gaunce to the Yardmen Arena, after the forward was reassigned from Vancouver the day before.

Bolstered by the return of their captain, the Bulls wasted little time in taking an early lead over the IceDogs when forward Luke Cairns potted his first goal of the season just 15 seconds into the game. A Niagara penalty shortly after allowed the Bulls to keep the pressure on, and Hooey scored his first of the night with just over two minutes gone in the period to give the Bulls an early 2 - 0 lead.

The Bulls were dominating all facets of the game as the period went on, not allowing a single shot on goal in the first five minutes of the period while recording 18 shots of their own in the opening stanza. This sustained pressure proved too much for the IceDogs to handle, and after some slick passing Hooey netted his second of the night, assisted by Gaunce and

there. On another Niagara powerplay, Perlini drew a key assist on Carter Verhaeghe’s second goal of the year, which knotted the score at 3 - 3 with less than ten minutes remaining. However, with time winding down Niagara found themselves in penalty trouble of their own, giving the Bulls the man advantage in the closing seconds. That’s when Hooey completed the hat trick, banging home a rebound past Niagara goaltender Christopher Festarini with just 13 seconds on the clock to bring the fans at the Yardmen Arena to their feet, and giving the Bulls a tightly contested 4 - 3 win.

“We took a couple of bad penalties and some of our choices were not great choices, but it wasn’t from a lack of work,” Burnett said. “Our compete level was good tonight and a lot of guys handled themselves really well.”

The Bulls next hosted the Kingston Frontenacs Wednesday night. The score was unavailable at press time. Belleville takes on the Oshawa Generals Friday in Oshawa, before returning home to host the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds on Saturday at 7:05 p.m.

Judo is on!

Sports - Frankford Want to learn a martial art, while practising an Olympic sport? The Quinte Judo Club’s season has started, with classes being held at the Franck Masonic Lodge in Frankford. While teaching from the competitive angle, the club still has all ages participating at the same time, both as recreationalists and competitors. Therefore family participation is promoted.

One of the great aspects of judo is that more harmful aspects are not included in the regular practice sessions. The goal is to subdue your opponent, not injure them. What this translates to, however, is that you are allowed to practise all aspects of this martial art to its fullest extent … not just going through the motions! Everyone starts out just learning how to fall properly, before they jump in to putting to use what they have learned. Safe falling practices then go on every class, and the Olympic quality practice mats at the Quinte Judo Club help soften the landing.

Judo consists mainly of throwing your opponent and then pinning them to the ground.

Chokes and arm-locks are included, however, only introduced to the younger participants as they mature. During a judo practice, if a student feels in danger of an injury a “tapping action” will end the match. Although if the need arises, these techniques can be quickly altered in any self-defense situation. Judo is a great form of self-defence, as the focus is on what to do when an attacker gets a hold of you. All of these concepts promote developing conflict management skills and instilling confidence to deal with situations in a calmer frame of mind.

In short, judo has a wide range of appeal as a sport, an art, a discipline, a recreational pastime, a social activity, a fitness program, a means of self-defence, and a way of life.

Starting out in Belleville in 1986, the club has changed locations over the years in order to maintain the concept of mutual benefit and keeping things affordable. Judo is considered

SPORTS

an individual sport, so you get out what you put in, which makes it ideal for those who shy away from team sports. Classes are often divided within to accommodate age and experience as well. This judo club has always kept this format, under the chief instructor’s guidance over the past 26 years, yet has still produced competitors at the national level.

There are no major equipment purchases required either, and uniforms (Judo gi’s) can be acquired sometime after start up. For beginners, $15 will get you a couple of classes to try it out (nonprofit organization).

Judo classes are held every Monday and Thursday from 7 until 8:30 p.m., at the Masonic Lodge, 33 King Drive, Frankford. Spectators are always welcome. For more information about judo, please contact Gilbert Mooney at 613-395-5192; Dennis Simpson at 613-397-1652 or check out the web site at <quintejudoclub.com>.

Novice AE Jr. Bulls Sports - Belleville - Novice AE Jr. Bulls opened their season with a home and home starting in Oshawa on Saturday with a sour note losing 7 - 3 to the Generals. Bulls goals were scored by Braeden Davis and Carly Mullvihill netting a pair; assists went to Cameron Tompkins, Owen Skinner, Carter Gorman, Brett Bashall and Owen Bird.

On Sunday a much tighter game and superb goaltending was the story as the Bulls jumped out to a 2 - 0 lead with goals from Brett Bashall and Braeden Davis, assisted by Jack Deacon, Nicholas Johnson, Kate Cruess and Cameron Tompkins. A solid performance by goaltender Lukas Campbell kept the Bulls ahead until two quick goals by the Generals late in the third. It was a nail-biter finish and ended in a 2 - 2 draw.

Poor registration for Bowling with the Bulls

By Steve Jessel

News - Belleville - With the return of the OHL hockey season comes the return of the Lung Association’s Bowling with the Bulls event, but special events co-ordinator Lola McMurter said she’s having trouble finding participants for the annual fund-raising event.

“I just can’t seem to get anyone registered for this,” said McMurter.

Taking place on October 6 at Quinte Bowl, Bowling with the Bulls is an opportunity for hockey fans to spend an afternoon with some of their favourite players from the hometown team. All the big names, from Subban and Gaunce to Worrad and Graham are expected to attend the event, and with a silent auction and a raffle featuring a grand prize of a trip for two to see a Toronto Maple Leafs game, there’s plenty of opportunity to walk away with a prize. Despite all this, McMurter said only roughly 35 people have registered so far, meaning the $10,000 fund-raising goal is in serious jeopardy.

“I’m completely baffled,” McMurter said.

Registration for the event is $25, and because it’s a fund raiser, participants are encouraged to raise pledges from their friends and neighbours.

Prizes are awarded to the top fund-raising teams and individuals, and entry into the event gives you a free raffle ticket for a chance to win the round trip

to Toronto to see the Leafs take on the Anaheim Ducks on October 22. The raffle isn’t exclusive to participants, however; anyone can come to Quinte Bowl the night of the event to buy a ticket for a chance to win one of a number of prizes. All funds raised from the event will go to help the one in five people in Ontario suffering from a serious lung disease.

“Events like this, they’re very important because we rely on fund-raising dollars for research and all the things the lung association does,” McMurter said.

For more information on the event, including online registration forms, visit the web site at <www.bowlingwiththebulls.kintera.org>.

2013 Applefest the biggest ever

Events - Brighton - What a weekend. By all accounts, the 2013 Applefest was the largest ever and much of the credit goes to car show promoter Don Postma.

“It was the biggest I’ve ever seen,” said municipal Councillor Emily Rowley. “Kudos to the promoter for a hugely successful car show.”

After a one-year hiatus for the show because of construction at Brighton Public School, it was Postma who brought the idea to the Applefest committee to bring television personality Danny Koker to Brighton for his firstever Canadian appearance. And it sure paid off.

Postma estimates at least 20,000 people strolled through the school grounds to have a look at the 600 vehicles on display. And for many, to stand in line for an autograph from Koker and Counting Cars co-host Kevin Mack.

“You Canadians are car crazy,” declared Mack, after touring the show. “We’ve never seen anything like this.”

Koker even promised the crowd he’d be back in Brighton next year.

“It’s something for the committee to think about,” said chairperson Carol Loader, in an interview after the show.

Her day began at 5 a.m. on Saturday, getting ready for the thousands of people who would be making their way to Brighton to take in a host of attractions throughout the day.

And show up they did, so many that Mayor Mark Walas figured, at least for one day, the municipality’s population quadrupled.

The Applefest committee barely has a chance to catch their breath after the weekend event. They are scheduled to meet with municipal Economic Development Manager Elisha Purchase at press time this week to go over grant applications to help fund the 40th anniversary of the festival in 2014.

Studio Tour visitor numbers continue to grow

By Scott Pettigrew

and many are return customers who make it an annual event. I have quite a few people say they start their Christmas shopping with the tour. It is very worthwhile for the artists involved and many who are on the tour are there to buy art.”

Pam added, “I wish we could go around as artists and see the tour ourselves, for example Elaine Tyner, who is a basket maker and has fixed up the one room school house that she once attended. We keep trying to organize it to go the night before but it never happens.”

The tour was very well signed with directional arrows pointing the way to the

various studios and it was like being on a car rally driving through some pretty remote back roads to find the various studios. Pam said just about everyone who takes part in the tour also takes part in helping organize the event; they meet four times each year to set up the event and are always looking for new artists to open up their studios. Often more than one artist join another in one studio. If you are interested go to <www.tweedstudiotour.org> or call 613477-2869.

Pam was joined by quilter Ann Fales and Linda Pauk as well as her son Jacob who was on the tour for the first time after just finishing an art course at Sheridan College in Toronto.

“It is really something to have Jacob be part of the tour this weekend,” said Pam. “I remember when he was just a little boy, he and his friends going around and serving lemonade and treats to the visitors. He really used to look forward to this event.”

Jacob is now 22 and said he was a little nervous exposing his art to Stained glass artist Linda Pauk, from Plainfield, is in her second year of the Tweed Studio Tour at Pam-Bailey-Brown’s studio and says it has been a very the public for the first time.

“I put a lot of heart into my work successful event for her. Photo: Scott Pettigrew and it is interesting to see other people’s reactions to it; sometimes I don’t know if people like my work or if they just like me and say that’s really nice. You never know if that Home Heating Fuels is genuine. It is nice to have people Budget Plans you don’t know come in and look Propane at piece and like it; it makes me smile.”

Commercial & Farm Fuels Jacob said that at present he is Shell Lubricants working as a courier in Toronto but Furnaces & Fireplaces Award-winning quilter Ann Fales is seen here explaining to studio tour visitor Larry Huffman a little about the process of making he hopes art will eventually become his full-time occupation.

Pam says she has been part of the tour from the very beginning.

“This year’s tour is very strong with fourteen studios. The numbers of studios involved fluctuates; three years ago we had 30 studios involved. The one thing that we can say is the number of visitors keeps growing. I had about 150 people pass through my studio last year

Heart of Hastings Hospice benefits from Trillium

By Diane Sherman

News - Madoc - The Heart of Hastings Hospice received $87,500 from the Ontario Trillium Foundation (OTF) to build a wheelchair accessible ramp to the lower level of Hospice House at 17 McKenzie Street in Madoc.

In addition that grant allowed the organization to hire a full-time director to oversee palliative care and bereavement support services on a oneyear contract.

Volunteers, board members and staff were on hand for the formal ribbon cutting of the OTF funded project.

OTF grant review team leader Deanna Dulmage and Todd Smith, MPP for Prince Edward-Hastings, addressed those gathered at the Friday morning ceremony.

Dulmage pointed out, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is the second year in a row HHH has received funding from the foundation.â&#x20AC;?

She said the project is deserving of assistance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will make this organization more selfsufďŹ cient, even though ongoing funding is a community responsibility, our goal is to work toward independence for the agency.â&#x20AC;?

Todd Smith said it was a pleasure to hand out money to â&#x20AC;&#x153;people like you who have worked together as a community. That is why you were chosen.â&#x20AC;?

Both Dulmage and Smith were impressed with the house.

Smith said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a fantastic atmosphere

here. You have created a ďŹ rst-class house for the terminally ill and their families.â&#x20AC;?

Doctor Janet Webb, chair of the HHH board, said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The OTF has been wonderfully supportive of our goal to provide physical, emotional and spiritual comfort and promote the dignity of terminally ill persons â&#x20AC;Ś This grant assists us to move farther in that direction.â&#x20AC;?

The new director is Donna Frair, a registered practical nurse, who has worked in the area for the past ten years. She ďŹ rst came to HHH in 2004 to assist with the volunteer visiting program. Prior to that she held management positions in healthcare organizations in southwestern Ontario and Toronto region, and was a career adviser with the Registered Practical Nurses Association of Ontario. She was hired in July.

Services of Hospice House are available to residents of the ďŹ ve surrounding municipalities at no cost to the users.

This past year staff and volunteers have made 2,109 visits to 160 patients. The house opened last fall and since that time staff has served eight patients and their families with end-oflife care.

Dulmage was particularly impressed by comfortable and homey nursing rooms. Though the rooms are equipped with hospital beds, she noted the homemade quilts and recliner chairs in each room. She reďŹ&#x201A;ected a moment, then stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wish we had a place like this when my parents were in their last days.â&#x20AC;?

LIFESTYLES

Needles and evergreens

Lifestyles - It has happened already, Gentle Reader. Several customers have asked us what is wrong with their tree because they have noticed discoloration of the leaves and, in some cases, crispy brown curling along the margins (edges).

We usually wait for a moment and the answer presents itself to the individual.

If the light doesn’t click on, we say

“Autumn,” and then watch as the soft pink glow of the bulb illuminates their facial tones. (My in-house editor tells me that phrase is a titch obscure and not everybody is going to realise that it refers to the red flush of embarrassment.

I suppose the line could be rewritten but that would require serious thinking and I’m not the best of thinkers.)

GR (and those of you who have asked that question in the past) we do not view this as a stupid question. It is more a statement of denial; a spoken wish that summer is not over. So there is no need to be embarrassed unless you ask the same question every year.

However, when we field the same query about evergreens the puzzlement is understandable. We are taught, as youngsters, that some trees never lose their needles and stay green all year long, hence the moniker “evergreen.” We learn this at a very early age either in school

or during a walk with our parents in the forests. It doesn’t matter if that forest is Algonquin Park or a row of trees at the back of the local park. That knowledge becomes a part of us but it is seldom refined as we grow older, especially if we are denizens of the urban environment.

So here is that refinement, with qualifications: evergreen trees are those which have needles/leaves year round.

But … not always the same needles.

There is a changing of the guard as older needles do fall off and sometimes, especially in the more wispy types such as eastern white pine, the fall drop is much more noticeable. The natural pine green (urban types can open up their box of Crayolas to see that exact colouring) provides the perfect backdrop for the bright yellow needles soon to fall.

As an aside, I admit that, in spite of post-secondary designing courses where we were introduced to colours, tints,

hues, shades, international designations etc., my real and current knowledge of colours is thanks to the folks at Crayola.

Burnt sienna, Prussian blue, middle green and shamrock are still names I use.

Back to the white pine: at this time of the year, customers tend to shy away from purchasing these chappies because of the colour contrast so we will actually “flag” (remove dead needles) them. I did an experiment one year where I cleaned up one row of trees and left the other au naturel; guess which sold first.

Did you know that evergreens swap out their needles at different rates? Here’s a list of those you might find in our area: one year - tamarack and redwood; two year - white pine, Scotch pine; three year - most Japans pines, including red, white and black; four year - red pine and five year - mugho pines. You all know mugho pines, right? The ones that looked like soft little tussocks when you bought it at

the nursery five years ago and now they tickle the bird tummies as they fly past?

Other evergreens with “scary” needle drop include taxus (yews), thuja (cedars) and juniperus (okay- I’ll continue the theme here - junipers). The caveat is this is a natural occurrence at specific times but it can also indicate a problem when it happens out of turn. Learn the “bio” of your plant so you can respond to issues in a timely fashion; the time to address the situation is before the post-mortem.

When needles fall, leave them lie.

They return important carbon back to the soil, they take a while to break down which allows for better aeration but … surprise, they do not make the soil more acidic. Okay, they do but only in micro amounts that have almost no bearing on soil pH. For a future column: can you name the three common to Ontario conifers that are not evergreen?

Self-interest isn’t really so selfish

Lifestyles - I was browsing through some old news clippings recently when I found one that sounded straight out of an episode of The Office: a hazmat team had to be called and an AT&T office building in San Jose evacuated when a frustrated employee decided to finally clean out the fridge. The noxious fumes were so bad that they sent seven people to a hospital.

I hate to think of what was in that fridge. But many of us have experienced this: when the fridge belongs to all of us, and it’s no one individual’s responsibility, it doesn’t get cared for.

People just shove their old mayonnaise jars and ham sandwiches back there forever.

It works like that with most things.

When people can realize the benefit of something directly, they take care of it. When they don’t get any personal benefit from it, they don’t. It’s as simple as that.

That’s why collectivity has never worked. When the first settlers arrived at Plymouth Plantation in 1620, they all farmed communally. Within a few years people were starving. It turns out that people don’t tend to work very hard if everyone is going to get the same thing, regardless of the effort they expend.

Then they started parceling out land to individual families and the harvests went up. A similar thing was seen in Russia: when the Communist Party took over and collectivized all the farms, what was once the breadbasket of Europe

collapsed.

Self-interest sounds selfish, but it’s actually just normal human behavior.

People do whatever will get them the best rewards. We want a kitchen appliance that will save us work but cost us the least amount. We want a job that pays the most for the amount of work we’re willing to put in. We want to maximize our rewards and minimize our costs.

It’s not that we don’t want to work at all, though. It’s just that if we do work, we want to get as much benefit as we can. People work harder on their own gardens than they do caring for the sides of highways. Once people own a home, they tend to keep it cleaner than when they rented.

When we own something, we tend to care for it more than when other people own it—or when everybody owns it.

One of the measures of economic health is how much

“human capital”—human intelligence, and skills, and effort—is actually being used versus how much is being wasted. A country where people work—not just at jobs but at bettering their homes and communities—will be better than a country where people don’t put in the effort.

No amount of government can make up for people’s wasted elbow grease. What a country needs, then, is incentives to make sure people work.

We tend to think altruism and compassion are good words, while self-interest is a bad word, but personally, I think a healthy society needs large doses of all three.

Without self-interest, we wouldn’t have any money to be compassionate and altruistic with. Without the ability to better ourselves, it would be difficult to pass on any of those rewards to others who need a hand up.

Self-interest isn’t a bad word;

it’s just a description of how everyone makes decisions.

And human nature is not going to change.

If we want a better society, instead of asking, “How can we make people share more of what they have?” we should ask, “How can we help

everyone to have more of a stake in our community?”

When people have a stake, they work hard. When no one has a stake, it’s as if we’re living together in a giant fridge in that AT&T building.

And that’s hazardous to more than just your health.

It’s been an experience

By Bob Larocque

Editorial - It’s been about 40 years since I last sent a young’un off to school in early September, but I did so again this year. My wife, a bilingual university graduate who has been unable to find satisfying employment in the Quinte area, decided to go back to school. But this time she was going to follow her passion and study Culinary Management. I went along with the idea because I thought it would be nice if she learned how to cook.

Well, that first morning was quite a scene. With tears of joy running down my cheeks, I took her picture as she was going out to the car. It was like that TV commercial: Hairdresser $80; Textbooks - $490; Glowing smile - Priceless.

She just loves being in an academic environment once again. I have never seen anyone, that’s not smoking something funny, as excited as she is when she comes home from school.

When she does come through the door at the end of her school day the first thing we do is check all her digital appendages

to make sure she hasn’t chopped anything off.

Later, I help her with her homework. Actually, at this stage, I just watch her as she demonstrates the proper way to chop onions, flower carrots, and to spatchcock (to flatten) a chicken.

After watching her do her homework, I’m really pleased that she didn’t decide to take the embalming course.

In short, she’s really enjoying this experience and she’s got such a radiant glow around her I thought Pope Francis was talking about making her a saint when he addressed the 10,000 people in St. Peter’s Square last Sunday morning. And divine intervention may be needed as she has lost the combination number for her locker at school.

Anyway, I’m really enjoying the experience.

Prior to this, the most exciting part of my day was when I took my digestive pills before each meal. By the way, we’re now saving money on them as well.

And, as a writer, I can’t tell you how nice it is to have the house to myself once again.

TRAVEL

Leuven, Belgium, is the beer capital of the world

In the spotless “kitchen” of Stella Brewery, where the brewing takes place in large vats.

The automated assembly line can put out 150,000 cans per hour.

Beer flows through a pipe that runs from the Domus Brewery directly into the restaurant next door.

Lifestyles - Beer and its consumption may be of major interest to some travelers at this time of year, with “Oktoberfest” celebrations taking place in various locations. For example, Munich, Germany’s renowned Oktoberfest takes place from September 21 to October 6 this year, and our very own Kitchener, Ontario’s celebration is held from October 11 to 19.

However, a strong argument can be put forward for yet another destination, Leuven, Belgium, as being the actual beer capital of the world. After all, Leuven had more than 30 active breweries in the early part of the 20th century, has been home to Stella Artois since 1926 (which traces its roots back to 1366), and is now the headquarters of the largest brewing company in the world, AB InBev. It’s estimated this one company has about 30 per cent of the world market, and in addition to Stella Artois, its brands include such well-known names as Busch, Beck’s, Budweiser, Lowenbrau, Michelob, Alexander Keith’s, Kokanee, Lakeport, and Labatt.

Leuven has its major “Beer Festival” in April rather than in October, and more than 100 brewers will then present about 500 different beers. It has become the country’s largest beer trade fair and entry is free. There’s even a free shuttle service to/from this event!

Leuven is also said to have “the world’s longest bar,” for there’s bar after bar in the vicinity of the city’s Old Market Square. This Belgian city, located about 25 kilometres east of Brussels, is also home to the country’s largest brewery, Stella Artois, and to one of its smallest, too: Domus.

While in Leuven, I took a tour of its largest brewery, and I was very impressed by both the size and cleanliness of this operation. Johann was my personal guide in the Stella Brewery, and we first visited its “kitchen,” where the “cooking” takes place in large vats that hold 65,000 litres of brew each. We then proceeded to the fermentation, filtration, and bottling sections; everything appeared to be both large and spotless. I was amazed there were not a lot of assembly line workers, for most of this process was automated with the workers actually sitting in a control room, monitoring the activities.

I was also struck by the sheer quantity being produced, for I was told that the automated assembly line can put out 150,000 cans and 200,000 bottles per hour! Green bottles were used for the export market and brown bottles were for domestic sales. As I watched this assembly line, I noticed certain cans were automatically being discarded as they moved along, and Johann explained that “everything is weighed at certain intervals, so if there’s a small leak in a can, that beer won’t weigh the proper amount and will be thrown off the line and discarded”.

Tours of the facility, in English, are available on summer weekends at 2:30 p.m. For more information, visit its web site at <www.breweryvisits.com>.The Stella Artois Brewery operates 24 hours a day, so a lot of beer is being produced here! However, none of it is stored, for it’s simply loaded up in trucks and moved out that very day in bottles,

cans, or kegs. I also discovered there’s very little waste here, for even most of the “leftovers” in the process were sold to local farmers as cattle feed. Johann told me to look at the neighbouring cows on my next visit to the countryside, “for you’ll find them to be some of the happiest cows in the world!”

After my visit to Stella Artois, I, of course, ended up in the tasting room, where I received a free sample and I was told about the proper way to pour beer. I learned that we tend to do it incorrectly in North America, for the bottle or tap should not touch the glass (impurities), and there should be a proper head, “to release the beer’s aromatics and add to the overall presentation.” I discovered that there’s actually an annual “Draught Master Championship,” and it has been won by Belgian pourers more often than by any other country!

Later that day, after my visit to the largest brewery, I dined at Domus, the city’s smallest brewery, where beer flows directly from the brewery itself, via a copper pipe, into a tap installation in the restaurant next door. You talk about getting a fresh brew! I was served one of their beers while I dined on a rather traditional Belgian meal that included a bucket of mussels accompanied by a plate of French fries.

Popular Munstraat, near the Old Market Square, is lined with bars, restaurants, and outdoor tables.

Purdyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Canada very much included Proceeds from the fund raiser will go toward a writer in residence program Hastings and Prince Edward counties. at the Purdy-built A-Frame on Roblin Lake.

A fund raiser near the celebrated

poetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ameliasburgh home, and attended by many including his widow, Eurithe, as the guest of honour, featured

a pair of performances of Al Purdy at the Quinte Hotel as well as readings and musical performances by local artists.

Hosted by the Active Arts Studio and held throughout the day last Saturday, more than 80 people attended the event that also included a silent auction of signed Purdy works as well as sales of his anthology. And at the end of the day organizers were able to raise nearly $600 for the Purdy A-Frame project and plans there for a writer in residence program.

The play, written by Toronto-based playwright David Carley, includes several of Purdyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poems delivered from his familiar and comfortable watering hole. Using several of his poems, penned over a long career and several cross-Canada trips, Al Purdy at the Quinte Hotel tells the story of Al Purdy as well as the stories of countless other Canadians. Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s play, performed

by Richard Turtle, incorporates many recognizable poems with the barroom banter that one might expect from a writer with a beer in his hand and also featured an original score written and performed by Andy Thompson.

A-Frame representatives Lindi Pierce and Michele Lintern-Mole were extremely pleased with the response as well as the quality of the performances, offering their thanks to Jeff and Tracey Keary for donating the space as well as their time and energy to the fund raiser as well as to all the participants who took the stage.

Between the afternoon and early evening performances of the play, Martin Durkin, who was described by several in attendance as a perfect ďŹ t for the event and a poet worthy of note, read selections of his own work that has appeared in published form or on his blog, recounting experiences from the memorable to the mundane.

Durkin took the podium following a well-received set of folk and pop songs performed by Marmora musician Morley Ellis.

Said Jeff Keary of the event, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was completely awesomeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;quite literally spellbinding.â&#x20AC;? And, he says, he hopes to bring more quality theatre to his home in Rednersville, which is becoming recognized locally for its musical performances.

Golden celebration set for school open to visitors from 6 p.m. until 8:45 p.m.

Twenty-five years ago the school community celebrated in several ways over the course of the year with a balloon launch, Christmas parade, tree planting, and operetta called Time For a Change and an open house which featured the time capsule sealing. There was also a reunion dinner and dance.

Student winners of the balloon race which included

prizes for the first returned and the farthest travelled were Jacelyn Truckle, Jeff Rylott, Brooks DeRossi, Tara Nurse, Kerri Stillwell, Justin Patterson, Jeremy Deline and Shannon Foster.

Releasing those balloons was a cherished memory for student Vicki Blakely who recalls waiting to see if anyone would return them. Each balloon contained a stamped envelope that balloon catchers could use to contact HBPS.

“To this day I’m still waiting for mine,” Blakely says on the fiftieth anniversary web site. “Although not really an environmentally friendly gesture, but guess what, it was the ’80s.”

The anniversary web site includes photos from the school’s construction and its twenty-fifth anniversary; a memory page allows graduates to share their thoughts about their days at the school.

By Bill Freeman

News - Havelock - It will be a golden night of reminiscing and memory sharing at Havelock Belmont Public School October 4 as the venerable Mathison Street East building celebrates its milestone fiftieth birthday.

Organizers have been planning the celebration in earnest since the end of the 2013 school year with decade rooms, photo and memorabilia displays, tours

of the school and the muchanticipated unsealing of the time capsule which stands in a central location in the front foyer greeting visitors with the invitation to return on the fiftieth anniversary to find out what mysteries in contains.

The alluring time capsule was officially sealed during the school’s twenty-fifth anniversary celebrations on May 20, 1989, with student Tammy Drain and her mother Heather (McLean) Drain, a

student at HBPS when it first opened, participating in the ceremony along with 1964 principal H.R. Hunter and P.W. Greenley, principal of the school in 1989.

Friday evening’s festivities will run from 6 until 9 p.m. with opening ceremonies, including a cake-cutting, planned for 6:15 p.m. The time capsule is set to be released from its 25-year slumber at 8:30 p.m.

But the news and details were not revealed until the day of the show. “It was a complete surprise to him, and very emotional,” Couch adds.

And just in time for the Hockeyville celebrations in Stirling, Cook took delivery of his new wheels. “Check it out,” he said during a recent trip to the rink. “I just got it.”

He has already offered his personal thanks to the band, he says, but adds he is also grateful to the community and all those involved in helping him get around a little more freely. And Cook was able to experience another first in his brand new chair when he arrived at the Stirling arena to get nice and close to the Stanley Cup.

“When we had the jamboree, there were still people outside and we’d filled the Legion,” Couch says, noting support for the Frankford concert was overwhelming. Included in the concert were Steve and Spike Piticco, Debbie McLean, Julie Simpson, Robin Edgar and Stompin Jon with John and Rita Harpell, And before the night was over, they were able to announce they had successfully reached their goal.

Ticket sales for the show amounted to about half the necessary total and “Medigas came through to cover the rest,” says Ellis.

“That was the one thing he wanted,” says Ellis of a wheelchair Cook had found online and shown to him.

“That was it.”

So with the help of bandmates Travis and Brandon Whaley, Richard Ellis, Bruce Forsythe and Lynzi Couch the group set up a fund raiser that, in

purchase on September 30 at several locations in Trent Hills including at the CMH Foundation office at the hospital, the Campbellford Seymour Community Foundation office, Earth Angel in Campbellford, Bridgewater Coffee and Donuts in Hastings and Glover’s Market in Warkworth.”

In a press release Catherine Holt, donor relations officer at the CMH Foundation noted “there are many people who made this great idea a reality.”

Sarah Rowland, photographer and owner of Creations Behind the Lens, did an outstanding job capturing the calendar’s images.

McColl and her grandmother Margaret, who is 92 years old and is a breast cancer survivor who has had

a double mastectomy, posed first to show other calendars girls what to expect.

Margaret was so enthusiastic about helping the digital mammography campaign, that she inspired all of us.”

The two Hooters For Healthcare calendars will retail for $20 each and feature a message of Hope and Heartache from each calendar girl and boy.

Both Holt and McCollSmith agreed that, “There were many surprises along the way, such as men wishing to pose for the campaign and three generations posing together”.

“The calendars are in a handy desk-top case and we know folks will be delighted with not only the photos, but the amazing messages shared by the calendar models,” said McColl-Smith.

News - Campbellford - Women from Trent Hills came together Saturday evening to celebrate months of preparation and to unveil two calendars featuring local women and men, discreetly posing topless in support of digital mammography at Campbellford Memorial Hospital (CMH).

This fabulous and fun opportunity to raise funds was the idea of Flourish Campaign Co-ordinator Tonya McCollSmith.

The Ladies Night included delicious hors d’oeuvres served by handsome, local gentlemen, including Trent Hills Family Health Team doctors Paul Williams, Brett Jamieson and Joe Barbero as well as volunteer firefighters from Stirling-Rawdon.

As Tonya explains, “the response to our call for calendar girls was so enthusiastic we decided to create two Hooters for Healthcare calendars, one for 2014 and one for 2015.

The calendars will be available for
