EMC News - Belleville - The ninth annual Pull for Kids event is in the books, and after raising $9,000 with the 2013 event, Ontario Lung Association Special Events Co-ordinator Lola McMurter said she’s happy with the level of community response and involvement with the annual event. “The community has been great,â€? she said. “Everybody that has donated, every person, every sponsor, every volunteer, every participant, family member, friends, has been great ‌ the community has been really generous.â€?

Taking place on Saturday, June 1, Pull for Kids pitted nine local teams against each other in a battle of pure strength and endurance. The challenge? To pull a 13-ton Foley Bus Lines coach 100 metres through the Lowe’s parking lot as fast as possible.

At the end of the day, only one team could come out on top, and for the third consecutive year, The Property Guys claimed top prize, narrowly edging out a team from the Belleville Police Services with a time of 13.72 seconds. “It was tiring, exhausting,� said Josh Empey, captain of Lowe’s Leaders. “Those things are heavy, that’s for sure.�

Empey was taking part in the event for the third consecutive year, and said while he doesn’t have any particular connection to the event that would bring him to it each year, he was encouraged by the number of teams and spectators that came to support such a great cause. “It’s just about getting out, being a part of the community and helping raise money for a good cause,� he said.

After raising $7,400 in 2012, the event was aiming for $10,000 this year; they narrowly missed their goal. Funds raised from the event stay in the Quinte area to help children living with asthma. The “Pulling Puffers� team from the Belleville and Quinte West Community Health Centre won most spirited team award, while Rachel McMurter of “Mama’s With Muscles� raised the most money individually.

The Belleville Police Services team “The 5 Oh’s� won the award for top fund-raising team. “We raise funds so we can raise awareness,� said McMurter. “It’s kind of a tricky balance. I just hope this event helps even one person with asthma in the Dave Steele of Lowe’s Leaders struggles mightily with his team to pull a 13-ton Foley Bus Lines coach during the ninth annual Pull for Kids on Saturcommunity.� day, June 1.

Physio services concern county council

EMC News - Belleville - Hastings County Council will seek further information from Quinte Health Care on their recent decision to drop OHIP-subsidized physiotherapy services in the northern part of the county. “Our people have nowhere to go ex-

cept Belleville,� said Carlow-Mayo Reeve Bonnie Adams. She was reporting to council Thursday on a letter her council had received and expressed concern about an unfair deal and called on council to get involved. “How can they just simply withdraw their physio services from the north?� she

asked.

She noted that physio services are available at local long-term-care facilities and wondered why those services couldn’t be used by residents who need such care.

Reeve Carl Tinney of Faraday was quick to support her, commenting that while the county has plowed a lot of money into

Quinte Health Care, it doesn’t seem to get much back and the county should take a firm stand.

Warden Rick Phillips invited a motion for the county to send a formal letter of concern to the hospital board. “I’m satisfied with that as long as it gets results,� said Reeve Adams.

Meeting goals pleases QHC chief

By Jack Evans

EMC News - Belleville - Four goals set, four goals met. That situation has Quinte Health Care President and CEO Mary Clare Egberts bubbling with pride of accomplishment.

The report, based on latest data processed, was presented at the board’s May meeting held at Ban-

croft on May 28.

“We had high hopes but we really didn’t know until the last minute,” she said of the four-part program, “especially meeting our budget.” The latter was confirmed with a statement showing more than $160,000 in the black as of the end of April, and also the end of the hospital corpora-

tion’s year.

Other targets included enhanced quality and safety of care, exceptional patient experience and effective care transitions.

“I’m very proud to achieve the four corporate goals. It was a lot of hard work and leadership by all staff. It took a full year of effort.

The budget especially was not a

sure thing; we had to see the numbers.”

The meeting in Bancroft was part of QHC’s policy of meeting at all four hospitals during the year.

In other business, the board heard a report on progress toward a complete new hospital facility in Picton, and that the Local Health Initiatives Network (LHIN) is sup-

EMC News - Belleville - Arts and culture in the city of Belleville is due to receive a big boost, as a new not-for-proďŹ t society is aiming to expand the opportunities offered at the Belleville CORE building in the near future. “The bottom line is we’re providing programming in the area of the arts at affordable prices,â€? said The Core Arts and Culture Centre (CACC) founder Trevor Hoskins.

Planned as a continuation and expansion of the current art, music and dance programs offered at the CORE building, the CACC is a new entity with a new mandate: to empower, inspire and support individuals of Hastings Prince

Edward counties by offering arts and cultural opportunities. Within that mandate are several smaller goals—to promote personal development and expression, to provide a safe and welcoming environment, encourage the exploration of a range of arts opportunities, ensure opportunities are affordable and accessible, to offer professional instruction and support, and to work with community partners. “When we looked at the increasing demand and need for arts and culture related programs and opportunities for all ages, all walks of life, it was evident that laying the foundation for years to come with such a concept would be just what our community is in need of,� Hoskins said.

plaque to mark the Belleville connection of Dr. James Collip, who played a key role in developing insulin as a treatment for diabetes.

Richard Hughes, in making the presentation, described the Belleville native as “one of the greatest scientists of the20th century.�

The new organization will welcome new executive director Cheryl Whiteman on June 24, and will likely spend the summer putting in the hours in order to have programs ready for September of 2013. Those programs run the full gamut of artistic expression, from dance classes to music and dance sessions, and while it’s important for the organization to provide these programs to youth, that’s not the only group they want to appeal to. “It’s not just a matter of saying let’s get a bunch of kids here that wouldn’t otherwise have that opportunity ‌ that’s a world of its own,â€? Hoskins said. “But to see adults come and ďŹ nd a sense of fulďŹ llment, and a sense of purpose and a

sense of accomplishment ‌ there’s much to be discovered in what art does to inspire people.�

For Hoskins, seeing the ways in which people and youth grow when given arts opportunities is what brings him joy. “What’s really cool is to watch a kid come in at the beginning of the semester, lacking self-esteem and self conďŹ dence—and this is the real crux of where we’re coming from,â€? he said. “When mom and dad, and grandpa and grandma are sitting out there [in the audience], and there’s a standing ovation ‌ it does something for that little child, and that’s the heart of this organization.â€?

properties in emergencies.

In a council deeply divided over whether to consider changing to OPP policing, and with Councillor Tom Lafferty absent, the recorded vote was tied 4 - 4, meaning the motion to draft a bylaw was automatically lost. Mayor Ellis, Councillors Jackie Denyes and Taso Christopher and Councillor Garnet Thompson were the naysayers.

Councillor Jodie Jenkins asked at one point: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do criminal gangs monitor communities to see if they have such a bylaw?â&#x20AC;?

Chief McMullan assured him that they did.

Also lost for the same reason: a tied vote, was Councillor Jenkinsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; motion to pursue electronic recording of caucus meetings as protection for council members.

Councillor Taso Christopher called it: â&#x20AC;&#x153;a waste of money.â&#x20AC;?

EMC News - Belleville - City Council continues its running spat with the local police force and board following a meeting Thursday.

On the agenda was a report from staff concerning a request from the police commission going back some months to put a bylaw in place to control â&#x20AC;&#x153;fortiďŹ cationsâ&#x20AC;? on private property.

The issue raised some opposition when it ďŹ rst came to council, but a majority agreed to refer it to staff for a report.

The staff report presented Thursday gave two options: one to proceed to draft a bylaw as requested by the police force; the second not to proceed.

Again the issue drew concerns by some members of council who seemed to think it would be an imposition on private property owners, despite Police Chief Cory McMullenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s assurances that the restrictions in any such bylaw would be only those council approved.

She said the bylaw is in keeping with several other Ontario jurisdictions where criminals, including organized crime, or over-enthusiastic property protection fans could create obstacles which could impede or hinder police or emergency access, as well as hinder egress from such

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Hydro One and OPG are two different entities Dear Editor, Wyley Canuck has obviously done a great deal of research into the wages in the utilities industry, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too bad that he hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t got his story quite right. As it stands now in our province there are two separate main players in the energy game. Wyley lays the blame on Hydroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doorstep, but then proceeds to malign persons in Ontario Power Generation (OPG) who operate outside of Hydro One. He continues to blunder when he crit-

icizes the wages of nuclear operators without the slightest understanding of their workload. I for one, keeping in mind that we live downwind from Pickering NGS and Darlington NGS, do not want any Homer Simpson type behind that first operatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desk. Perhaps Wyley has forgotten Three Mile Island and Chernobyl.

A nuclear first operator must have the attributes of: (a) a nuclear engineer to deal with the operation of the reactor and its

radioactive contents, (b) an electrical engineer to understand the myriad of control circuits for the reactor, its support systems and in-plant power systems that keep the reactor safe, and finally the energy connection to the grid that receives the generated power, (c) a hydraulics engineer to deal with problems related to the vast pumping systems that provide water to the boilers, reactor cooling water, water for the steam condensers, and de-mineralized cooling water

for the generator. He must have a further understanding of how all these interdependent systems react with one another, especially when there is a problem with one or more.

At the start of each new shift, he must be able to grasp the implications of ongoing work that the previous first operator has approved before even looking at the requests for the dozens of work authorizations that will cross his desk during his own shift. Work

on the units does wait for a shutdown unless the problem is very major. Try to imagine mechanics working on your car while you drive to work, all the time keeping you safe. The first operator must read and evaluate each and every work authorization request, then decide whether or not to let work proceed. Because of the complexity of the interdependent systems, one job can have a serious impact on other ongoing work or upon the safety of the public, the work-

ers, or the integrity of the reactor itself.

Homer Simpson, or perhaps even Wyley Canuck, wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t qualify to sweep the floors in Ontarioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nuclear power stations. But to give Wyley his due, the wages paid to the topmost people in the industry do require some scrutiny.

Take, for example, the â&#x20AC;&#x153;smartâ&#x20AC;? meter fiasco that we are all now saddled with. But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s another story for another day.

Bob Johnson, Stirling

Radio Moscow model coming soon to Canada

Dear Editor, If you look around the world today, and have even a slight grasp of history, you will know all dictators understand they must control the media if they are to control the people. Some dictators use their army to enforce this control of information. Concentration of media in the hands of a few very wealthy corporations in America has achieved the same outcome for American political parties.

Right now the Harper government is moving stealthily toward Canadian media control on two fronts.

They are counting on Canadians to be too busy in their daily lives to notice. By the time they do, it

will be too late.

Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s majority government is about to pass another Omnibus Budget Bill (C-60). Within this 115-page bill is an obscure section near the end which effectively gives our Canadian government control over what is supposed to be an independent public broadcaster. The CBC is slowly but surely being morphed into a state broadcaster for the advancement of Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda. As reported in the Hill Times on May 1 of this year: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bill C-60 gives Cabinet the power to stipulate contract bargaining mandates, setting salary limits and other conditions, through the Cabinetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Treasury

Board Committee of ministers.

It also allows Cabinet to assign a Treasury Board Secretariat employee to oversee the negotiations.

The CBC Board of Directors would be responsible for ensuring CBC followed the orders.â&#x20AC;?

Harper is now consolidating control of the CBC Board in the same way he took control of our Senate. Seven of the most recent appointees to the CBC Board, all appointed by Harper and his cabinet, have made some rather substantial donations to the Conservative Party since 2006. Editorial independence is essential to our democratic system and we are about to lose it.

CBCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Radio 2 was forced to start selling advertising last week.

This is the first step in commercializing CBC Radio. If I were in the prediction business I would wager that not too many years will pass before CBC will be privatized, then sold off to some business cronies of Harper who will ensure that only news favourable to his governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda will ever see the light of day. To this end another $115 million has been withdrawn from the CBC budget.

The mantra Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lieutenants will all use is, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are saving the taxpayers money.â&#x20AC;? This is another lie. Financial studies have proven our CBC investment dollars spin

Too many standing ovations I feel they are justified when a performance has exceeded the ordinary, the expected level, and has achieved a higher unexpected one. By ordinary I mean that the performance had reached a standard that we, the audience, have appreciated and our genuine applause demonstrates this along with our thanks for the entertainment given through their talents.

A one- or two-person standing ovation can unnerve the remainder of the audience which then follows suit. If the ovation

is, in my opinion, undeserved or given just to encourage (especially younger) performers I, and I suspect others, are faced with quandary; do we follow suit or sit tight and appear unappreciative of the performersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; efforts.

I think the ultimate example of standing ovation insincerity is sadly, demonstrated in our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Parliament Buildings when its members resemble Jack-in-the-box characters when applauding their party leaderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s every statement.

because of a lack of viewers. If the CRTC grants mandatory carriage, Sun TV will be forced into millions of Canadian homes with subscribers getting the bill for a service they do not necessarily care to watch. Teneycke told the CRTC that if they are not given this revenue stream, amounting to around $18 million per year, then Sun TV is dead.

Harper and his apostles know exactly what they are doing. It is death by a thousand cuts. All Canadians will be poorer for it in many ways if we allow them to succeed.

Alan Coxwell, Stirling

More problems with Hydro One Dear Editor, Like Mr. Leavens of Stirling, I too received mailed notification from Hydro One that they would be closing the gap of 18 days between the dates of the meter reading and the bill issuance.

Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fine. Whatever. They need this one-time infusion of extra cash. Â What really irritates me is that the gap between the time that the outgoing meter is read on my handful of solar panels and the date that they issue a statement is 21 days; (I am typically

paid for the power I generate about two weeks after that.) I did not receive notification from Hydro One that they would be closing the 21-day gap and they have still not responded to my request for an explanation of this oversight. And for this outstanding service on my solar account, I am required to pay them a fee of $6.10 every month for them to write me a cheque!

Theft charges laid after speeding complaints

R0012138121

Dear Editor, To stand or not to stand, that is the question. I do not mean to stand for election, I mean to stand as in â&#x20AC;&#x153;a standing ovation.â&#x20AC;? It is my opinion that standing ovations are becoming excessive, almost the norm, and are thereby degrading it as a measure of the appreciation of excellence. Although given in all sincerity, they should not be automatic.

off much more money than they cost the taxpayer with the creation of jobs in our artistic and intellectual communities. This $115million cut to CBC about equals Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ubiquitous â&#x20AC;&#x153;Action Planâ&#x20AC;? propaganda campaign which does nothing for our economy.

On the second front Harperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former Director of Communications Kory Teneycke, now the vice-president of Sun Media, made a final pitch to the Canadian Radio-Television Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) on May 2, to be given Mandatory Carriage status.

EMC News - Brighton - Three men were charged with theft under $5,000 after police responded to complaints about vehicles travelling at excessive speeds on a residential street connected to an unassumed road in Brighton.

The first report came in around 7:15 p.m. May 29.

Police located the suspect vehicles on the road at the west end of Butler Street West â&#x20AC;&#x153;but were unable to follow up because a priority call was received,â&#x20AC;? Northumberland OPP media relations officer Constable Karen German said in a news release.

Following a second complaint, received around 9:30 p.m., officers stopped a 1999 Chevrolet Cavalier and a 1999 Chrysler Intrepid on Monck Road near Ontario Street

and found three men who had been arrested previously as a result of a criminal investigation in April.

It was subsequently determined a theft had occurred at a local auto recycling business and the three men were arrested and taken to the OPP detachment in Brighton.

Brandon Bernard, 18, Quinte West, and Lucas Boucher, 18, Brighton, were also charged with two counts of failing to comply with an undertaking given to an officer in charge.

Bernard was also charged with possession of break-in instruments.

Jordan Paul E. Chambers, 19, Brighton, also faces an additional charge of failing to comply with an undertaking given to an officer in charge as well as one count of possession of break-in instruments.

OPINION

Drums along the Nile

EMC Editorial - All students of geopolitics are familiar with the legend that Egypt has privately warned all the governments upstream on the Nile that it will start bombing if they build dams on the river without its permission. The truth of that story is about to be tested.

Last month Ethiopia started diverting Gwynne Dyer the waters of the Blue Nile in order to build the Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam, a $4.7-billion, 6,000-megawatt hydroelectric project that is the centrepiece of the country’s plan to become Africa’s largest exporter of power. Egypt instantly objected. “We have a strong legal case to insist that our share of the Nile water is preserved,” said an anonymous government source—but he didn’t mention bombers.

Egypt depends utterly on irrigation water from the Nile to grow its food. Even now there is not enough (it already imports almost 40 per cent of its food), and Egypt’s population is still growing fast. If the amount of water coming down the Nile diminishes appreciably, Egyptians will go hungry.

A treaty signed in 1929 gave 90 per cent of the Nile’s water to the downstream countries, Egypt and Sudan, even though all the water in the river starts as rain in the upstream countries: Ethiopia, Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania. It seemed fair at the time: the 20 million people in the downstream countries depended heavily on irrigation, while the 27 million in the upstream countries had plenty of rain-fed land and hardly irrigated at all.

Things have changed since then. According to the International Data Base of the U.S. Census Bureau, there are now six times as many people in the Arabic-speaking countries downstream, and eight times as many people in the African countries upstream. Egypt is using all of its share of the water—and the upstream countries are starting to use the water for irrigation too.

The Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam is the first real test of Egypt’s tolerance for upstream dam-building. The reservoir will take 63 million cubic metres of water to fill; Egypt’s annual share of the Nile’s water is 55.5 million cubic metres.

So even if Ethiopia takes five years to fill the reservoir, that will mean 20 per cent cuts in the water Egypt receives from the Nile for five years. And even after that there will be a large annual loss to evaporation.

This dam is just the start. Ethiopia plans to spend a total of $12 billion on dams on the Blue Nile for electricity and irrigation, and Uganda is negotiating with China for financing

for a 600-megawatt dam on the White Nile. More dams and irrigation projects will follow—and the upstream states are in no mood to let Egypt exercise its veto under the 1929 treaty.

That treaty was imposed when all the countries involved except Ethiopia were under British rule, and it reflected Britain’s big investment in Egypt. In 2010 six upstream countries (including Burundi and Rwanda) signed a Co-operative Framework Agreement to seek more water from the Nile, effectively rejecting the colonial-era treaty and demanding that Egypt relinquish its veto and accept a lower water quota.

That’s not going to happen. Mohammed Allam, Egypt’s minister of water resources under President Hosni Mubarak when the upstream states signed their agreement three years ago, warned that “Egypt reserves the right to take whatever course it sees suitable to safeguard its share.”

His country sees the matter as a national security issue, Mohammed Allam said: “Egypt’s share of the Nile’s water is a historic right that Egypt has defended throughout its history.” The post-revolutionary Egyptian government under President Mohammed Morsi cannot afford to be less firm in defending Egypt’s interests.

The issue will probably be kicked down the road for a couple of years, because the Great Ethiopian Renaissance Dam will not be completed until 2015 at the earliest. But there is big trouble for Egypt (and Sudan) further down the road.

By 2025, a dozen years from now, Egypt will be trying to feed 96 million people, which would be very hard even with its existing giant’s share of the Nile’s water and all its current food imports. The countries that signed the Co-operative Framework Agreement will have 300 million people, so by then they will also be extracting very large amounts of water from the Nile Basin for irrigation.

Without that water, Egypt’s only options are beggaring itself with massive food imports (until the foreign exchange runs out altogether), or famine. Unless, of course, it decides on war— but its options are not very good on that front either.

Not only are the upstream countries a very long way from Egypt (the Nile is the world’s longest river), but they will have strong support from China, which is financing most of the dams they are now building or planning.

Egypt, by contrast, has repudiated its former American ally, and may find that the U.S. is reluctant to re-engage even if the government in Cairo can overcome its own distaste for Washington. Why would the United States want a confrontation with China over Egypt?

So there probably won’t be a war. And Egypt will probably face an apocalyptic food shortage in ten or fifteen years.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Trent Hills’ council deserves credit Dear Editor, In a perfect world, green energy would solve the world’s needs, private investment would handle the costs, our hydro costs would become more economical and we’d all live happily ever after.

However, in its infinite wisdom, our provincial government fleeced taxpayers and energy users of billions of dollars in unfair electrical bills to fund wind turbines and solar panel energy initiatives. Also, they experimented with the well-being of citizens by allowing wind turbine development to happen without properly studying possible health repercussions.

That is why the Municipal Council of Trent Hills should be commended for recently passing a resolution declaring that it will not be a willing host of any wind turbines with a rated capacity higher than 100 kilowatts.

Council deserves additional plaudits for coming out in the resolution recommending that all seven municipalities in Northumberland County follow the example set by Trent

250 Sidney St., Belleville, ON K8P 5L6 Phone: 613-966-2034 Fax: 613-966-8747

Hills by also approving resistance toward wind turbine development.

In particular, Warkworth Councillor Kim MacNeil deserves credit for researching the issue and then coming forward as a leader to present the wind turbine resolution. She said she was motivated because of the health concerns expressed by the public and “the economics versus the risks of industrial wind turbines which have not yet been clearly identified or articulated for the taxpayer.”

The Green Energy Act notwithstanding, Councillor MacNeil makes a lot of sense when she asks “why should people try putting up wind turbines and start a war about putting them up?”

Few are against the concept of renewable energy but only if it can be achieved with economic sanity and also guaranteeing citizens avoid suffering health problems.

And here we go again

By Terry Bush EMC Editorial - Sneaky. There’s no other word for it.

About a month ago, Mare and I were out splitting wood near Stirling. Not the time of year one wants to be in the wood business but if you slack off when you should be cutting, there’s always a price to pay later on.

There wasn’t so much cutting going on as there was splitting big blocks, which weren’t located in a convenient location. So, being the guy, I walked across the dried up stream bed and carried those remnants of very large butt logs back where the splitter awaited.

Not an easy task, walking with 150-pound blocks on uneven terrain but without a tractor, one does things one shouldn’t to keep warm for the winter.

I put it down to old man strength, you know the power that doesn’t seem possible from someone who’s getting older and losing muscle mass but still seems to wait in reserve until you need it. It’s almost like you have the same strength you’ve always had but just can’t work as long as you used to work.

I am now officially my father at 55, the guy who could dig two or three post holes to my one when I was in my twenties and fit as a fiddle.

Old man strength is why you don’t get out of control at stag parties or the hunting camp because if there are guys there drinking with you in their fifties and sixties, they’re the ones who’ll put you out the door on your ass. Back woods old man strength you really have to watch out for. Never cross a 70year-old trapper.

Anyway, after getting all that wood split, hauled home and stacked, I noticed the black flies had taken their toll. A couple of days later, the bites were still pretty itchy so scratch I did. It wasn’t bug bites.

Needless to say, those itchy spots soon spread and my first bout of poison ivy was well under way. Maybe it came from picking up blocks though I was wearing gloves. Maybe it wasn’t from doing wood at all. With three furry dogs roaming the woods it could have come from them. Poison ivy just seems to magically appear at times and then your only option is to wait it out for a couple of weeks.

I did my time and just when it was almost cleared up, I cut the lawn and did some weed whacking. Only saw one little patch of poison ivy on my travels and that was at the bottom of some long grass I had just cut. No worries there.

There are quite a few mosquitoes out these days and we’re constantly being bitten. Our dogs ferry a dozen or so in each time they enter the house so when I was at work scratching a few bumps in front of my ear, I thought nothing of it.

The next day I shaved and by the end of the day a few more appeared. More the next day and then I realized it was round two. Shaving had spread it across my face, the bumps were blisters and to make matters worse, spots appeared on my eyelid. When I woke up the next morning and opened my eyes, my vision seemed to be impaired. Looking in the bathroom mirror, the problem was apparent. My eyelid had swollen up so much that it was drooping over my eye so I could only see out of the very bottom. I looked like Joan Rivers would if her eye tucks let loose. The razor was put away and I holed up for a few days.

Luckily, when this round of poison ivy made its way through my bloodstream it didn’t pop up in any locations that would cause the better half to shout “Cooties” and ban you from the bedroom. It did seem to concentrate on my driving finger though, the one I use when travelling to Toronto. Luckily there were no road trips planned.

I managed to scrape my face before heading off to my cousin’s mini family reunion on the weekend. Funny how many people think they’re immune to poison ivy because they’ve never had the pleasure. I said that too before I got it for the first time ten years ago and have had it every year since. I tried not to shake hands with people wanting to live life on the edge.

When you see how badly some people are affected, I’m still an amateur.

Karen Revisited, our new designer at the paper had it so bad once she spent some time modelling only underwear around the house because clothes were a major problem. Other people have had it in places nobody wants it … under their belts where it itches and spreads when the blisters constantly break. I’ve seen people in the emergency room covered head to toe. Some use calamine lotion, some Gold Bond, some Javex. My solution is rubbing alcohol every time I walk through the bathroom door to try to dry it up. At least it feels like I’m doing something constructive whether there are any medical benefits or not.

I got off fairly easy this time though I’ve never had it on my scalp and face before. Still not sure where I picked it up and probably will never know. I seem to be more susceptible the older I get. No old man strength solution to this one.

Telemedicine the way of the future for instant healthcare

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Quinte West - For patients who do not like to travel for appointments with a specialist, telemedicine is the answer.

“There is a special video camera that captures the interview with your specialist on Skype,” says Pam Garrison, an RPN with the Belleville and Quinte West Community Health Centre.

She said the consultation records the interview including any photographs needed for the specialist to study.

“The specialist can zoom in to

make it 50 times closer,” adds Beverly Putnam, an RN with Telemedicine. “It is also on a secure network, only available to healthcare professionals.”

The system is funded by the South East Local Health Integration Network and is free for anyone with an OHIP card.

“We will go where you are located in Hastings and Prince Edward Counties,” said Garrison. “You just need a reference from your doctor to contact the specialist.”

She said this service has been available here since January, al-

though it was operating in Prince Edward County for two years. It was originally designed in 2008 for patients who live in remote areas such as northern Ontario, but now is becoming available to everyone.

“It’s really beneficial,” Garrison says. “We can do anything through Telemedicine now.”

She said the doctor must be registered in the system in order to work with Telemedicine. A referral could take a couple of weeks or a couple of months, depending on how busy the specialist is.

“It saves people time and energy

travelling back and forth to Kingston or Toronto,” she says.

The system uses a telestethoscope to hear the heartbeat and breath sounds through the video.

“They can hear everything just like a real stethoscope,” she said.

Two dermatologists, one in Belleville and one in Peterborough, are both signed up with the system.

For a telemedicine appointment for dermatology, your doctor will take photographs of your skin conditions

and forward them electronically to the specialist. He will review the information, make a diagnosis and send treatment recommendations back to the doctor who will follow up with a treatment plan.

“A telemedicine appointment is just like a regular doctor’s appointment,” Putnam says. “Only the specialist will be seeing and speaking with you on a monitor.”

Mothers and daughters learn together

number of hands on demonstrations and activities throughout the course of the day, including rumba, yoga and CPR training, and Corrigan said that getting daughters involved along with their mothers was a key component of the event.

“As far as looking at self-esteem and health issues, a lot of young women do look to their moms for that,” she said. “It’s a family thing, and we just felt that there was a niche in the community that we could fill.”

Corrigan added the reverse was certainly also true, that mothers can also be inspired by their daughters to stay healthy and active.

“We get so busy driving our children to events and so forth, to do something with them is something special,” she said.

In planning since about the new year, Corrigan said the reasoning behind the expo was partly triggered by a recent study at Brock University that found stress to be a major factor in young women’s lives when looking at risk of heart disease and stroke.

The expo was planned as an opportunity to Zumba instructor Brenda Barker of Goodlife Fitness leads participants give women a chance to learn lifelong lesthrough a workout during the first Heart and Stroke Mother/Daughter sons on staying healthy and fit to avoid that Strong Hearts Expo held at St. Theresa Secondary School on Saturday, June stress, while also raising awareness of the foundation within the community and rais1.

EMC News - Belleville - Living a busy lifestyle, it can be easy to forget to eat right and exercise as much as you should.

“Healthy eating and a healthy lifestyle isn’t necessarily a hard thing,” said Heart and Stroke Foundation area manager Maureen Corrigan. “It can be a fun thing, and it can be a family

thing.”

In aid of this pursuit, the foundation held their first annual Heart and Stroke Mother/ Daughter Strong Hearts Expo at St. Theresa Secondary School on Saturday, June 1, where mothers and their daughters could learn how to live healthy in order to avoid a stressful lifestyle. The expo featured a

ing much needed dollars for ongoing research.

“Lots of times people say ‘Is it local?’” Corrigan said. “There’s nothing more local than your sister or your mom or your child who is a survivor of heart disease or stroke, and it’s all because of the research.”

Turnout for the event was light at the opening of the expo

at 10 a.m., but Corrigan said that with the “expo” tag attached she expected more people to come through as the day went on. She said the organizing committee of Christine Sudds, Michelle Jiwa and Christina Tomin was already looking ahead to next year’s event, and that she hopes it becomes a mainstay in the community for years to come. When

asked about a father/son event, Corrigan laughed and said the idea certainly had potential.

“It’s just to keep heart health top of mind for everyone,” Corrigan said. “All the health charities, we’re all promoting the same thing, a healthy lifestyle, and the more we can keep that top of mind for everyone the better we are in Hastings/ Prince Edward County.”

Thousands attend convention

Mayor on the hot seat deal comes together because it would mean we wouldn’t be putting that $30,000 a year into the YMCA,” said Deputymayor Craig Kerr.

“You had this information, a new business wants to come to town. Did you share it with our new economic development officer?” Vandertoorn asked the mayor.

EMC News - Brighton - In the wake of a public meeting to save the local YMCA, Mayor Mark Walas explained to reporters and members of council on Monday night how it was he sat on information for more than three weeks from fitness centre operators interested in moving to town.

“I received a telephone call from the individuals, who had been following the news and they asked me what I thought,” he said. “I invited them to the meeting and my understanding was they were in attendance.

“At that point I didn’t think it was going to affect the working group because anyone wishing to start a new business would take the necessary steps to start a new business in the community.”

The call came in on May 8.

“I’m a little perplexed,” said Councillor Mike Vandertoorn, who recalled a meeting two days later at Brighton council chambers, which included himself, Walas, municipal CAO Gayle Frost, two Brighton Health Services Centre board members and two representatives from YMCA Northumberland, including CEO Kyle Barber.

“You never said a word to us that you had been contacted by an outside business willing to come to town and offer a fitness centre to this municipality.

“Further, on the night of [the public meeting] May 30, you actually spoke with these people. One asked if he could make remarks, seeing as it was a public meeting, and you told him ‘no.’”

“At that point we were watching the video and there was no opportunity for question period,” offered Walas.

“The meeting was not adjourned,” said Vandertoorn. “Since when do we prevent people from speaking out at a public meeting?”

“I was only going by the agenda at that time,” answered Walas.

“This has the potential to be a significant game changer in this whole process,” said Vandertoorn. “This is valuable, vital information you had for almost a month that you should have shared with your council and the other stakeholders. Why you decided to stick it in your pocket and hold on to it, I have no idea.”

“It is of significant interest and has the potential of saving us tax dollars if a

Strong Kids campaign under way

By Steve Jessel

EMC News - Belleville The 2013 YMCA Strong Kids campaign is gearing up for a busy summer this year, and it all kicks off when campaign co-chair and wellknown community member Wayne Dewe and friend Bernie Ouellet walk from Trenton to Belleville to help raise funds for the campaign on Friday, June 14.

“I take a lot of pride in the campaign,” Dewe said.

“I think the children of our community need the extra little help, and it gives me a lot of pleasure to be able to see so many happy faces at the YMCA when I go to see them participating in programs.”

The Strong Kids campaign is an annual fundraising effort put on by the YMCA in order to raise the resources needed to give kids the opportunity to live healthier, happier lives by subsidizing children in the area whose families may not be otherwise be able to afford enrolling their children in YMCA programs. The campaign raised $220,000 in 2012, and is again aiming for a total of $200,000 for

the 2013 campaign. Dewe played a big role in raising those funds, in part thanks to a 24-kilometre walk between the Quinte West and Belleville branches of the YMCA of Central East Ontario, something he plans to replicate this year.

In 2012, Dewe, Ouellet and their team raised over $22,000 over the course of the walk, which in turn translated into over 400 children having access to summer camps in the Belleville region. They begin their walk this year at 6 a.m. at the Quinte West branch.

To support Dewe and Ouellet and the campaign, you can donate at <www.ymcaofceo> or by calling 613-966-9662 or 613-394-9622.

“It went really good [last year], we picked up the name as the ‘blister brothers’ along the way,” Dewe said with a laugh. “We’re hoping for a nice sunny day and lots of support … it’s great to be able to do that.”

Keeping their foot on the gas, the YMCA will also be holding a Giant Garage Sale in support of the campaign the very next morning, Saturday, June 15. The garage sale

will not be accepted.

Finally, a number of local businesses will also be selling I Support Strong Kids icons throughout the month of June.

Businesses to date include

Dewe Your Independent Grocer, Smiley’s Your Independent Grocer, Bank of Montreal, Canadian Tire, and Marc’s No Frills, of which front end manager Ellen Pickard sold the most icons

in the entire community in 2012.

“It’s people like Ellen that get behind the program here at Marc’s No Frills and makes it possible to be able to send the kids that we do to camp,” Dewe said.

munity Futures organizations provided funding for the project as well, so it’s really taking on a regional aspect and that regional aspect is a key element in making this work.”

“It’s built around multiple sources of revenue,” he added. “You can rent space to do food processing, you can also rent refrigerator or freezer space for storage. We’ve talked to a couple of small business start-ups that are looking to co-locate. And there’s also a facility for a home for the Northumberland Federation of Agriculture … a meeting area and a home base.”

About $600,000 was raised for the project but, says Borowec, “our business plan is around using the facility.

The revenue stream should cover it all. We’re looking at a ‘not-for-profit’ sort of structure but also not for loss. It has to work.”

“This project is the inspiration of our farmers and our foodies and that collective group see endless possibilities and when they’re empowered, they make great, and great tasting, things happen,” said county agricultural co-ordinator Trissia McAllister.

From the left, Cramahe Township Mayor Marc Coombs, MPP Rob Milligan, Northumberland County economic development director Dan Borowec, Ontario Trillium Foundation representative Penny Smith and Northumberland County Warden Hector Macmillan were on hand at the Big Apple in Colborne recently to kick off a new food processing facility to be up and running by February 2014.

“This is about collaboration,” said Borowec. “It has a lot of moving parts and nobody else is doing this. We certainly thank the Trillium Foundation for being part and parcel of what we’re about to do here. This is important and we’ll do great things with this. It’s second-source revenue for the farming community and a chance to create employment opportunities for our youth.”

“Some of the farming community doesn’t want

to actually go in and process,” he added. “They’ll pay for the processing to take place. That alone will create some employment.”

The request for proposal for the project closes this week with an eye to being up and running by February 2014. The plan is to have the building up by November and the equipment in place by the end of January.

“This is perhaps the most exciting announce-

ment I’ve seen in quite some time,” said county Warden Hector Macmillan. “Hooray for agriculture in Northumberland County.”

Why Colborne?

“The agricultural community suggested this be their preference,” said Borowec.

The Colborne industrial park is located only metres away from Highway 401 and is easily identified because of the “Big Apple.”

New Plein Air festival poised to grow

By Steve Jessel

EMC Lifestyles - Belleville The city had a fresh infusion of artistic talent over the weekend, as the first Belleville-on-the-Bay-of-Quinte Plein Air Festival brought in over 50 artists to capture the beauty of the region through a variety of mediums.

“Being that it’s a first-time festival we had no idea what to expect … we hoped that artists would enjoy themselves, and we hoped that artists would come and people from out of town would enjoy the city,” said Belleville Downtown Improvement Area (BDIA) executive director Sarah Tummon. “The artKingston artist Frank Edwards took home first prize in the first ever Belleville-on-the-Bay-of-Quinte ists’ feedback has just been so Plein Air Festival for his oil painting of Victoria Park. Photo: Steve Jessel wonderful that they just blew

resident Frank Edwards of Kingston took home top honours for his oil painting View from Victoria Park. Second prize was awarded to Sharon Fox Cranston of Bloomfield for her acrylic piece Hot and Hazy in the Bay, while Delibor Dejanovic from Toronto came in third for his pastel piece Break Time. The OPAS Artists Choice award was given to Antonio Afable from Toronto for his acrylic piece of downtown Belleville.

“It feels fantastic, I’m honoured,” said Edwards of winning first prize. “The thing that amazes me is the distances that a lot of people came; it’s a good indication of where you stand as a community of plein air painters.”

The final showing of the pieces took place at Dinkel’s Restaurant in Belleville on June 2, where the 81 total pieces will remain, many for sale, until Sunday, June 9.

Looking to the future, Tummon said they would ideally like to increase the numbers of participants in future festivals, but based on the success of the first attempt she said the event has the potential to be a major tourist draw for Belleville.

“I think it was amazing.

EMC News - Belleville - Adults living with acquired brain injuries as part of the Pathways to Independence program celebrated some new digs last week, as a new Pathways home in Belleville held an official ribbon-cutting ceremony to unveil the new facility.

“It’s marvellous, it’s been a dream of ours for a long time to be able to start to update and transition,” said Deborah Paus, manager of marketing and communication for Pathways to Independence.

The new home houses five adult men with acquired brain injuries 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and while the space is slightly smaller than the old facility at 2,100 square feet, the new amenities and location more than make up for it. Paus explained that while the old home had its own charms, most notably being located on a beautiful piece of country in a more rural area, that same location worked against it, as being out of the city centre limiting the options of its residents. The old facility was also

aging and was not as accessible as the new building, and so the latest accessibility designs were implemented in the new building with the help of Geertsma Homes.

“It’s just made all the world of difference for the people we support,” Paus said.

Pathways to Independence offers community-based living support to people with cognitive function impairments. The agency also

provides case management, residential options, day and vocational programs and services in communities throughout southeast Ontario.

The not-for-profit agency is fully accredited, and has been in operation since 1990. The new facility was built with the help of a $200,000 donation from the John M. & Bernice Parrott Foundation received in November of 2012.

(From left to right) Lorrie Heffernan (Executive Director, Pathways to Independence), Kim Rioux, (Support Worker, Pathways to Independence), Bill Saunders, (President, Pathways Foundation), Jason Sinclair (cutting the ribbon, client of Pathways to Independence), Jack Miller, Belleville City Councillor, Doug Moses, (Parrott Foundation) were on hand for a special ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Pathways to Independence supported living environment in Belleville.

“The Quinte Grannies for Africa are bound together with a common goal to improve the life of the African grandmothers bringing up their grandchildren,” said group representative Mieke Thorne. “So also are the Quinte Grannies For Africa locally bound with a friendship and loyalty helping and caring for each other in sickness when there is stress with support and actual help.”

Funds from the Grandmothers to Grandmothers campaign go to African grassroots organizations working with grandmothers and the children in their care in partnership with the Stephen Lewis Foundation.

While Thorne said the local group didn’t have any particular fund-raising goal themselves, she said the funds raised were only a part of what the campaign is all about.

“When I think of myself as a grandmother, and I think of [African grandmothers] they’re resilient, they’re courageous,” she said. “To me this four-month walk strengthened again that invisible bond … I just feel connected. There is a rope, whether you see it or not.”

“The African grannies, they walk all the time,” Thorne said.

“So I thought, why not walk together?”

Roughly 60 people took part in the walk this year, each putting in their steps wherever and whenever possible, and collecting donations along the way. Thorne said she walked over 1,000 kilometres herself, and added that while the walk helps raise money for Africa it also had a positive impact on those who took part.

“It’s making our community healthy too,” she said. “When you think about it, 65 people combined did this, some more, some less.

Centennial Chargers are champions

By Steve Jessel

EMC Sports - Belleville Just days off a disappointing 1 - 0 loss at the hands of the St. Theresa Titans in the Bay of Quinte final, the Centennial Chargers senior girls soccer team put on a dominant showing at the COSSA championships to claim first place for the second year in a row with a 7 - 0 victory over Cobourg West in the championship match on May 29 at Zwicks Park.

“The girls were very excited to win COSSA,” said coach Debbie Clare. “They were very disappointed to lose Bay of Quinte on Monday because we played so well, but just couldn’t get the ball in the net. I think scoring so many goals in the final was

a sweet feeling.”

After reaching the final with a 3 - 1 win over Peterborough Holy Cross, the Chargers found themselves on the defensive early in the championship match. Slowly picking up steam, Centennial began to apply some pressure of their own, and after an illtimed handball by a Cobourg defender inside the box, Centennial’s Katie Svoboda made no mistake on the penalty kick to give the Chargers the 1 - 0 advantage. With momentum squarely in their favour the Chargers wasted no time in adding to their lead, as just minutes later an odd-man rush and some slick passing left Sara Svoboda with some space in front of the net; she buried a hard low shot past

the keeper to extend the lead to 2 - 0 for Centennial.

“This team works well together, passes the ball well, moves it well up the field, communicates well,” said Clare.

It would have been easy for the Chargers to let off the gas with a comfortable lead, but on this day everything seemed to go their way. Katie Svoboda scored her second goal of the game after making a slick move to get past a defender, and before the half was up Centennial was at it again, this time scoring when Maddy Quickert’s chip shot from the wing eluded the Cobourg keeper to give the Chargers a dominant 4 - 0 lead heading into the half.

“We pretty much scored four goals in the first 20 minutes of the first half, and the other team seemed to be a bit defeated,” said Clare. “I think they were a bit tired from their first game because it went into overtime.”

Despite the Centennial defence hardly being tested in the first half, Clare could be heard extolling her players on sideline, cautioning them that the game wasn’t over yet.

With the wind now at their back, Cobourg began to put together a few offensive opportunities, but on defence they still had trouble slowing the Chargers’ assault on the net. With two goals by Jenna Press and another by Kayla Cassibo the closing minutes of the second half were merely a formality with the Chargers leading 7 - 0, and when the final whistle blew they took home their second consecutive COSSA championship.

“We focused on good ball control and movement, give and go passing and taking shots further out for practice,” Clare said. “We controlled the play the entire half, so there weren’t really any worries that we were going to blow the lead.”

With the COSSA championship in the bag, the team now travels to Windsor for the OFSAA girl’s soccer AAA cham-

Highway of Heroes Ride honoured by motorcycle parade

By Kate Everson

EMC News - Trenton - The hills around the amphitheatre were filled with waving Canada flags on June 1 as a tribute to the fallen soldiers of the Afghanistan conflict.

“This is a tribute to all those who lost lives in Afghanistan,” said Mayor John Williams at the opening ceremonies of the Heroes Highway Ride.

MP Rick Norlock said they honour those who made the supreme sacrifice.

MPP Rob Milligan said this means a lot to Quinte West. Wing Commander Colonel Sean Friday said many here have attended the repatriations and every year the Heroes Highway Ride has honoured them.

Donations were being raised for the Wounded Warriors Canada fund and the Tom Stacey Centre for Veterans Care. Graham Hume, co-director, thanked everyone for supporting the troops.

Kyra Breach, 14, from Oshawa, led the parade of flag-bearers, each accompanied by a young person with a picture of a soldier who died in Afghanistan. Kyra had seen several repatriations and raised funds for the Wounded Warriors.

Trapper, founder of the CAV, Canadian Army Veterans, which helped sponsor the event this year, said it was an honour to attend. He said he has crossed the country 14 times now, looking for answers.

He said everyone faces horrible days, and they need to keep their fami-

felt overwhelmed.

Hundreds of motorcycles left from Whitby and Kingston that morning, converging on Centennial Park as this year’s focal point of the Heroes Highway Ride. There was a Show and Shine and live entertainment.

The Parade of Remembrance was the highlight of the event, with the hills dotted with flags, as children

and adults showed their respect for the fallen. The 413 Wing Pipes and Drums piped the Parade of Remembrance into Centennial Park.

Darlene Cushman, silver mother of fallen soldier Darryl Caswell, was the parade marshal.

Heroes Highway Ride was started in 2009 by Lou DeVuono, who was inspired by the number of people

standing on bridges and along the roads at every repatriation along the Highway of Heroes from CFB Trenton to Toronto.

On Sunday, several motorcyclists rode to Ottawa for the D-Day, National Memorial activities and trip to Beechwood Cemetery, Canada’s national military cemetery.

“Getting to Know You” at the Pinnacle Playhouse

EMC Entertainment - Belleville The many works of Rodgers and Hammerstein have amazed and enthralled audiences for decades. Closing off this year’s season at the Pinnacle Playhouse will be the enchanting The King and I. With a large and talented cast, director Moira Nikander-Forrester brings the Siamese royal court to the stage in this 1952 Tony Award-winning musical.

R0012140749_0606

Daniel Beylerian, King of Siam. Photo: Submitted

Loosely based on the novel Anna and the King, by Margaret Landon, the musical is set in the lavish 19th century court of the King of Siam. In 1861, King Mongkut wrote to his Singapore agent asking him to find a British lady to be governess to his many children.

Enter Anna Leonowens, who modernizes the education of the royal children while clashing with the King in a struggle over customs and culture.

Director Moira NikanderForrester says, “It is the glorious music and lyrics by Rodgers and Hammerstein that truly make this show a family favourite. The audience will recognize many popular tunes include Getting to Know You, Whistle a Happy Tune, Hello, Young Lovers, and Shall we Dance.”

“Our large 37-member cast is very talented and enthusiastic ranging in age from three to seventy,” Moira continued.

“The audience will recognize many BTG regulars among them, but we are very excited that a number of our lead actors are entirely new to our stage.”

Rehearsals for The King and I are in full bloom this spring at the Belleville Theatre Guild.

Nikander-Forrester says, “Bringing this musical to life presents many challenges because a period piece of this sort requires costumes, hair, and makeup that are appropriate to the time and place in the world where it is set. As well, the movement of the actors and the dancers are things we are not familiar with, so much research was needed before any cutting, sewing, blocking, or choreographing could begin.

Happily, everything is coming into the mix and the audience is in for a very special evening of entertainment.”

Our musical director, Dave Farmer, has contributed his usual high standard of vocal direction to our cast. The songs of Rodgers and Hammerstein will echo on the BTG stage in full harmony. The show will take the stage June 6 to 23 at the Pinnacle Playhouse, with special previews on June 3 and 4.

Visit the BTG web site at <www.bellevilletheatreguild. ca> to find out more about

this production, as well as our upcoming season. The theatre guild is proud to announce the five plays that comprise our 2013-2014 season, with descriptions, performance dates, and audition dates all listed on our web site. New to the stage this year will be a children’s production taking place in December. Please visit our box office for more information regarding subscriptions.

Be sure to catch The King and I early—you’re sure to want to see it twice! Tickets are $22 ($10 for students) and we offer fourteen performances from June 6 to 23, including three Sunday matinees. Show time is 8 p.m. for evening performances, and 2 p.m. for matinees. Discounted tickets are available for the previews on June 3 and 4. Call the box office at 613-967-1442, or order your tickets on-line.

The Belleville Theatre Guild offers elevator service right into the theatre, a barrier-free washroom, and room in the front row for wheelchairs and other mobility devices. See you at the Pinnacle Playhouse.

EMC Lifestyles - During the Middle Ages, Ghent was larger than London, Berlin, Moscow, and Vienna. It was actually the second largest city in all of Europe (Paris was #1), and the flourishing wool industry had established it as a wealthy and politically important destination. Today, the beautiful city of Ghent, which is located at the confluence of the Scheldt and Lys Rivers, is a relatively small city, with about a quarter of a million inhabitants, but its many well preserved historic buildings and towers have led to its nickname: “Medieval Manhattan.”

I visited Belgium’s “Medieval Manhattan” on my last European adventure trek, and I was certainly impressed by its historic architecture. I took a walking tour in the city centre (with guide Hedwig), and I was especially impressed by the view from St. Michael’s Bridge, for I discovered it was one of the very best vantage points from which to enjoy Ghent’s medieval buildings and skyline. I later discovered that the view from here at night, with all the lights on, was even more magical.

On our walking tour, we visited such points of interest as the city’s renowned Cloth Hall (dating from 1425) and its Belfry (completed in 1380).

The clock tower, topped with a copper dragon, still holds a carillon with the bells that have rung for centuries—and it now has an elevator that transports visitors to an upper gallery for a fantastic panoramic view of the city centre. We also found that another great view of the city centre was available from the ramparts of Gravensteen, the Castle of the Counts, built in 1180, an imposing castle located right in the downtown core.

We strolled past several well-preserved 16th century guild houses, and through Prinsenhof, the residence of the Counts of Flanders, where Charles V was born.

We also visited St. Nicholas

Age no barrier to putting on the Ritz for bodybuilder

By John Campbell

EMC News - Warkworth At 72, Alec Dewdney is an old dude but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fitter than most people half his age.

Active all his life, racing dinghies, cross-country skiing, gardening and, more recently, sailboarding, Dewdney began working out about 15 years ago when he and his wife, Sue, who has multiple sclerosis, joined the YMCA in Cobourg so she could use the pool. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I knew I was going to need to maintain my strength as I got older to be able to continue to help Sue,â&#x20AC;? he said. That remains his primary goal but â&#x20AC;&#x153;the good feeling of being fit and strongâ&#x20AC;? made him receptive to an invitation by personal trainer Dave Avery to consider taking up bodybuilding.

Under his guidance, Dewdney entered a Fitness Athletes Models and Entertainment (FAME) competition in Cobourg in 2009 that Avery used to stage each year and he placed first in the super grandmaster class for entrants over 60.

He then went to the FAME world championships in Montreal the same year and came in second but â&#x20AC;&#x153;what was more rewardingâ&#x20AC;? was finishing fifth in the

open competition against much younger rivals.

Since then Dewdney has tacked on a few more firsts at Cobourg as well as a pair of number one rankings at the international level, in Hamilton and Las Vegas (where he dethroned the seven-time world super grand master champion from Quebec).

The field of competitors is a modest one in his age group, ranging anywhere from one to seven rivals.

There are two rounds in bodybuilding. The first is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;bit of a meat marketâ&#x20AC;? with competitors simultaneously striking ten compulsory poses to show off their physique. In the second, they perform individual 90-second routines theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve devised to music.

For his very first one, he â&#x20AC;&#x153;shocked everybody by having some of the gorgeous fitness models come out on stage with me as my â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;California Girls,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? he said.

This year in Cobourg, at the Ontario Natural Championships, sanctioned by the International Natural Bodybuilding Association (INBA), Dewdney did â&#x20AC;&#x153;Putting on the Ritz,â&#x20AC;? complete with top hat, cane, spats, white gloves and collar, and shorts.

He placed first and will

In the three months leading up to a bodybuilding competition, Alex Dewdney will work out six days a week, spending 90 minutes on strength training and two half-hour sessions of cardio exercises.

head to San Diego in November for the INBA Natural Olympia.

The drug testing is very strict, Dewdney said, and cheaters are stripped of titles, banned for life from future competitions, and enshrined in a Hall of Shame kept on the INBA web site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t quite understand why people would want to use chemicals because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not what you achieved for yourself,â&#x20AC;? Dewdney said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what the chemicals have done for you.â&#x20AC;?

The steroids make you bigger but â&#x20AC;&#x153;that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily mean youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re strongerâ&#x20AC;? and using them â&#x20AC;&#x153;is so dangerous.â&#x20AC;?

Bodybuilding â&#x20AC;&#x153;is a lot of fun [and] you meet a lot of really interesting people â&#x20AC;Ś from all walks of life,â&#x20AC;?

Dewdney said.

Wearing the â&#x20AC;&#x153;very skimpyâ&#x20AC;? posing costume â&#x20AC;&#x153;was a little unnervingâ&#x20AC;? the first time, he said, but now â&#x20AC;&#x153;you just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t even think about it.â&#x20AC;?

Alec Dewdney shows no signs of slowing down at age 72, having taken up Dewdney worked 19 years for the bodybuilding late in life and been rewarded with several firsts for his efIndustrial Accident Prevention Asso- forts, including this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s competition at Cobourg. At the Fitness Athletes ciation before trying his hand at rais- Models and Entertainment competition held in 2011, he was the Judges ing angora goats on a 50-acre farm in Choice Best Overall Best Male. Photo: Mark Walton the Warkworth area. That didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pan out so he got a job with Electro lab personal trainer. He was cer- ford, where he is a member of the board of directors Training Systems in Belleville and tified in 2010.

Some clients he trains in with the Campbellford and worked there 19 years as well until

last month when he left his job as a their home, others at Meyers District Curling and Racconsultant trainer to focus on being a Sports Centre in Campbell- quet Club.

The Good Earth:

EMC Lifestyles - Gentle Reader, this is the month of leaf blemishes.

Lots of moisture, humidity and warm temperatures provide an ideal environment for their proliferation. The good news is that spots on leaves seldom presage the plantâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demise.

The bad news is actually two-fold.

 By Sheila Wray Gregoire

EMC Lifestyles - There is a point in time, often in a doctorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, when life suddenly grows smaller. You realize you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do many of the things you loved and took for granted. Your body is growing older, and the life stretched out before you, which was once filled with possibilities, now seems far more plagued with problems.

Yet this point in time is coming far later today. Part of this is thanks to medical breakthroughs; yet I think expectations have also played a part.

My grandmother was once asked to leave school so that she could care for â&#x20AC;&#x153;a woman of a certain ageâ&#x20AC;? as she

went through â&#x20AC;&#x153;the change.â&#x20AC;? Decline was expected to come at fifty, and people seemed to relish the chance to add some drama to the process. Now we push it off as long as possible, and some of us even seem to avoid decline altogether.

This week I threw a seventieth surprise birthday party for my mother.

The fact that she was actually surprised, and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put two and two together until she was physically inside the banquet centre (and not just driving into the banquet centre) is perhaps evidence that she is not as sharp as she once was. Since I pulled off something similar 20 years ago, though, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure you can attribute this to age.

Nevertheless, one of the thrilling aspects of planning the party was tracking down everyone to invite. My mother has a multitude of friends, and they are all very different. Some are young, like 16-year-old Liam who accompanied her on a missions trip to Kenya last summer; and some are much older, like the university friends she still keeps in contact with. Some she worked with; some she knits with; some she worships with. So many of the party-goers were close friends of hers, and yet they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know each other because she floats through so

many different circles. Her world is big.

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always. In the early 1970s, after a difficult marriage breakup, her world looked small. It was reduced to figuring out how to support a young child and keep going, day by day. In the 1980s, cancer struck. And yet my mother began to see each day as a new possibility, and each person she met as a gift. When she finally retired a year or so ago, she did so because her volunteer work was taking up too much time, and she really needed more room for it. She didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t relax; she simply went bigger.

And it brought much joy.

Thinking of this reminds me of another woman I know, now in her midseventies, who had to quit teaching at 65. She was rather perturbed about it, because she loved teaching. When

get out and enjoy the fresh air and show their support for the annual event. The shorter one- kilometre loop is ideal for parents with youngsters in strollers or for spectators awaiting the return of runners on the longer courses, organizers say, adding it also provides an opportunity for all facets of the community to participate side by side, some as individuals and others as representatives of their community groups.

Those interested in the run on Sunday, June 9, can check for registration information, available online at <runningroom.com> or <stirlinglions.com>, or by calling 613-395-0575 or 613-3953261.

Yes, one day our bodies will betray us. But until that day comes, I pray that I may live a big life. I pray that I may see each day as a new opportunity; each person as a potential friend; and each moment as a source of joy.

swimming at the YMCA one day, she was offered a job. So she trained for her lifeguarding qualifications, and began teaching swimming.

Bev taught my own girls when they were small; today they teach side by side with her. A few months ago when Bev recertified, she passed the timed swim again. Bevâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get smaller; it got bigger, too.

Retirement was once thought of as a chance to give back to yourself. You could relax, and take things easy, and revel in oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s accomplishments. For many, that seems too small a dream.

We search for significance, and joy, and purpose, and that does not have to end when one comes to the end of oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career. On the contrary, for many itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just the beginning.

Runners and walkers can travel a number of different routes from one kilometre to ten kilometres in categories from 12 and under to over 70, says organizer Lin Clarke, with competitive and non-competitive registrants welcome.

The run begins at 9 a.m. sharp at the Stirling Arena parking lot where registration tables will be set up.

Hoping to top last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s race-time numbers of 102, organizers are encouraging runners and walkers of all ages to

Virus: described as a complex collection of molecules or a simple organism. Viruses have many of the components of â&#x20AC;&#x153;lifeâ&#x20AC;? but not all of them. Viruses work inside the cell structure and are spread by vectors (usually insects such as aphids and thrips or even seeds). One of the interesting signs of a virus on a leaf is a shot-hole. When the plant detects a virus (who knows how?) it surrounds the infected cell with dead cells; in other words it sacrifices living tissue in order to contain the spread. Once the cells are dead, they fall off the leaf leaving a hole.

GR, there are millions of viruses and the physical symptoms that we see can be just as numerous. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re only looking at leaf spots, remember.

Chemical control is not even an illusion. Cleanliness is the best response as is avoiding certain cultivars known to be susceptible.

in two primary fashions: air and water. The latter occurs in the spring as falling raindrops land on infected litter (last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaves that you didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t rake up) splashing the spores higher and higher up on the plant. If your rose develops black spot, note that the lower leaves are the first to show the symptoms; with larger plants such as apple trees, look on the windward side.

Management is deceptively simple.

Clean up litter in the fall and, during the growing season, create as hostile an environment as possible. Wettable sulphur is the best start and then you can follow up with an alternating regimen of two mixes. One is powdered milk and water (acid) and the other is baking soda and water (base.) By alternating the pH on the surface of the leaf, the fungus is put into adapt mode. You can check the archives of this newspaper or go on-line to get the program.

reports that lindens are sensitive to the herbicide dicamba and break out in a â&#x20AC;&#x153;rash.â&#x20AC;? Dicamba is a Class 4 pesticide with restricted use in Ontario.

You just know, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you, that 99.99 per cent of the time, a frequent flyer fungus is to blame, but the one person who shows up at the store counter with leaf in hand â&#x20AC;Ś.

Fungus: for our purposes, organisms that reproduce by spores (a mushroom is a gigantic fungus, yeast is a smaller one) and feed on decomposing plant material. What makes them undesirable is that they excrete â&#x20AC;&#x153;acidsâ&#x20AC;? that break down living material, such as leaf cells and then chow down on the rotting results. They are noticed when they â&#x20AC;&#x153;appearâ&#x20AC;? as black spots on leaves. You can expect to see them on viburnum, lilac, and linden; and soon, on apple, pear, hawthorne, serviceberry and yes, rose.

The first bit is that these spots detract from the â&#x20AC;&#x153;beautyâ&#x20AC;? of the presentation.

The second bit is that almost every leaf on every flower, shrub and tree on your estate harbours some potential spot-causing agent.

Remove the word â&#x20AC;&#x153;controlâ&#x20AC;? from your horticultural lexicon and insert â&#x20AC;&#x153;management.â&#x20AC;? The concept of control is an illusion that, when combined with an unrealistic desire for presentation perfection of every flower, shrub and tree on your estate, will leave you feeling with â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;Ś what you [sic] most enjoy contented least.â&#x20AC;? And that is not what gardening is about.

A caution, GR: massive text books have been written about this topic, there is no way a wee column such as this can cover everything. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one example: some folks have been seeing black spots on their Linden treeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaves. It is most likely caused by an airborne fungus but there have been

doc at 76 Durham Street south since 1996, with other locations in Trenton and Tweed. The youth centres provide various programs and offer a daily lunch program. The Madoc centre has a monthly coffee house, a weekly open mike session and after school program.

In 2003 MacAlister organized a Christian-based alternative to the drug and alcohol ridden Punk Rock era.

“Monkfest was formed to provide an opportunity for young people to play their own music in a safe place,” MacAlister says. “It’s a venue where everyone is respected, free of intimidation, profanity, threats and judgement.”

This year a mini-Monkfest was to be held at the St. Francis farm, a few kilometres southwest of town.

The threat of rain brought the gath-

ering into the market square. In the lineup of entertainers were Vivian Fortier, a local resident, MacAlister, and Murray Black who runs the Trenton location.

Recording artist Carey B. Grant came in from Ottawa to play some tunes from his three CDs, including Free to Fly. His work can be found on ITunes and Amazon. The last two performances pounded the town with heavy punk sounds

by Inhale Marie of Trenton, and With Blood Drenched Hands from Kingston, a title, band members say refers to “hard working hands.” These young people and their music gave messages of hope in Christian values. Mitch Irvine, of Inhale Marie, said Foundations in Trenton kept him off the street and free from drugs. At the age of 24, his eyes are bright, and he is

still playing his Christian punk sound.

MacAlister was pleased to reconnect with individuals who spent time at Foundations when they were younger.

Sean Milligan, of Madoc, said Foundations made “a huge difference” in his life. Now the father of two young boys, he credits Foundations with keeping him off the streets and out of jail.

“I had someplace good to go and didn’t hang out at the arcade.”

Brad Monkman said, for him, “Foundations is a gathering place where you can feel welcome, and always have a hot meal.” To find out more on this charitable organization you can call Colleen at 613-242-1125 or go to their web site at <www. sandamianofoundation.ca/>.

JUNE IS DAIRY MONTH

Reasons to include more dairy in your diet A healthy diet can improve quality of life and reduce a personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risk of developing disease or other negative health conditions. For example, a diet rich in fruits and vegetables can boost the immune system and promote cardiovascular health, lowering your risk of heart disease in the process.

While the beneďŹ ts of including fruits and vegetables in your diet are widely known, the medical beneďŹ ts of dairy are often overlooked.

The following are a handful of ways that dairy products like low-fat milk, cottage cheese and yogurt can make a nutritious and beneďŹ cial addition

to your diet. â&#x20AC;˘ Dairy packs a protein- and calcium-laden punch. One cup of nonfat yogurt can provide as much as onethird of your daily recommended calcium intake and nearly 20 percent of your daily recommended protein intake. Though dairy products like ice cream donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pack the same nutritious punch as yogurt, healthier fare like reduced-fat cheese and skim milk can go a long way toward meeting your daily intake of protein and calcium. â&#x20AC;˘ Dairy is a great source of vitamin D. In addition to providing sufďŹ cient calcium and protein, dairy also helps

men, women and children boost their vitamin D. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s especially important in the winter months when people tend to get less exposure to the sun. Exposure to the sun is a natural way to boost your vitamin D, but the shorter days and colder weather of winter can make it hard to get sufďŹ cient vitamin D during that time of year. Dairy products like lowfat milk can boost your vitamin D, which can improve your bone health and, according to recent research, might help reduce your cancer risk. â&#x20AC;˘ Dairy may help lower your blood pressure. Men and women with high blood pressure might beneďŹ t from

In a study of 5,000 adults, Spanish researchers found that those who reported consuming the most low-fat dairy products were more than 50 percent less likely to develop high blood pressure than those who consumed less low-fat dairy. Though researchers are not certain as to the reason behind low-fat dairy productsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; impact on blood pressure, some theorize that their calcium and protein content are likely behind the beneďŹ t. â&#x20AC;˘ Dairy beneďŹ ts your bones.

Seniors who consume dairy to improve their bone density should know that a recent study from researchers at the Institute for Aging Research found that not all dairy products are equal when it comes to improving bone density. While milk and yogurt were linked to higher bone mineral density, dairy products like cream and ice cream contain less protein, calcium and vitamin D and more fat and sugar than yogurt and milk, and these products may actually be associated with lower bone mineral density.

Though there are many ways men and women can improve their overall health, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to consider the nutritional value of dairy when making any alterations to your diet.

Calcium and vitamin D are frequently touted for their ability to improve bone health. While consuming foods rich in vitamin D and calcium is especially important for aging women, both vitamin D and calcium also help to keep the body strong and vital at any age.

Calcium and vitamin D help ďŹ ght bone loss, and not just in older women.

Younger, active women need it to prevent stress fractures and other bone injuries.

Calcium is also needed for other parts of the body. The National Institutes of Health Osteoporosis and Related Bone Diseases National Resource Center says calcium is necessary for the heart, muscles and nerves to function properly. It also helps blood to clot. Furthermore, pregnant women need ample calcium in their diets in order to supply calcium to a growing fetus. If a pregnant woman does not get enough calcium through diet, the baby will draw it from Momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own bones, threatening the motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health while leading to bone fragility and increasing her risk of fractures.

Calcium and vitamin D work in conjunction. Although a balanced diet may provide enough calcium, many times high levels of salt and protein in oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diet can increase calcium excretion through the kidneys. Also, people who have an intolerance to lactose may not be getting the calcium they need. Vitamin D is necessary for the body to absorb calcium. Without vitamin D, a woman cannot produce enough calcitriol, impairing calcium absorption from her diet. In turn, the body will take calcium from stores in existing bone, weakening them and preventing the formation of strong, new bone.

Women who may have been deďŹ cient in vitamin D and calcium can develop osteoporosis and other bone-loss conditions as they age. Thanks to osteoporosis, half of all women over the age of 50 will have a fracture of the hip, wrist, or vertebra during their lifetime.

In order to maintain bone and body health, there are certain dietary intake recommendations regarding calcium and vitamin D. Adults under age 50 should consume between 1,000 and 1,300 milligrams of calcium and roughly 600 IU of vitamin D daily. Calcium can be found in dairy products as well as

REPORTS FOR JUNE 2013 I Pledge: My Head to clearer thinking, My Heart to greater loyalty, My Hands to larger service.

My Health for better living, for my club, my community and my country.â&#x20AC;?

Our 4-H Dairy Calf Clubs explore many different topics. They could be having meetings on keeping their calf healthy, free from diseases and making things better for their calf. They could have meetings on giving their calf a good start and recording their growth.

They could be reviewing the breeding and reproductive systems and organs or they could be studying the different breeding options.

Fitting and showing is the main activity for our 4-H Dairy Calf Clubs.

When the members are selecting their 4-H project animal there are several things that the 4=H member must consider:

Size â&#x20AC;&#x201C; selecting an animal that is appropriate for your size and is well grown for its age.

In showmanship, you will have a more awkward appearance showing an animal that is too small for you, but, you might have trouble controlling an animal that is too large for you to handle.

Registered or Grade â&#x20AC;&#x201C; while it is not necessary for a 4-H project animals to be registered at the local level, many shows require animals to be registered as a specific percentage of purity.

Temperament â&#x20AC;&#x201C; You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect an untrained animal to lead perfectly, after

pra cticing once or twice, but animals with a gentler disposition will be easier to work with than animals that are less docile.

Preparing their calf for the show is just one component of dairy showmanship.

The memberâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal poise, alertness and neatness are also important in the show ring.

They must keep an eye on their animal and be aware of the position of the judge at all times and respond quickly to requests from the judge. Be courteous and a good sport at all times.

Members are schooled that competing to win is healthy - but not if it means jeopardizing morals and the integrity of animal health.

As 4-H members, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to take responsibility for our actions and participate in shows in an ethical manner.

How did we place? What can we do to show our calf better?

A senior member â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Sarah Huffman of Hastings County 4-H took it upon herself to find two leaders to start a Dairy Management Club. This club is to explore the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Taking Care of Businessâ&#x20AC;? side of Dairy Farms. The 4-H members will be exploring the best possible options for housing and equipment to provide a healthy environment for both cattle and the farm as well as milk production and marketing and financial record keeping.

Motto: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Learn to do by Doingâ&#x20AC;?

Confirmation â&#x20AC;&#x201C; analyzing the confirmation of potential show animals is an important part of showing. It is hard to be successful if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pick the most correct animals to show!

And sometimes there can be special surprises. For Edison and Ethan Wharram, who were visiting the museum last weekend with family, it was a little livelier than expected. In the parking lot outside, the duo discovered a Blanding’s turtle, which is listed as endangered

or threatened in its Canadian habitat that ranges from Ontario to the east coast. Museum officials and volunteers who identified the creature, say it has arrived at the door on previous occasions.

Considered a medium sized turtle and measuring about 20

centimetres in total length, the Blanding’s is most easily recognizable by its bright yellow throat.

Plowing Match marks 25 years in August

By Richard Turtle

mittee President Jim Gunning says much of the preparation work has already been done for the August show and 2013, marking the 25th anniversary of the annual agricultural event, is shaping up to be an exceptional one. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Things are going really well,â&#x20AC;? Gunning says

of lead-up to the show, this year held just outside the village on Fairground Road and hosted by Doug Parr and Bruce Philp.

The list of exhibitors has topped 300 and, weather permitting, Gunning says organizers are hopeful the August 21 and 22 show will approach or even surpass record attendance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our exhibitors are up, our displays are up and our demos are up,â&#x20AC;? Gunning says of confirmed show participants, adding the 25th anniversary offers further cause for celebration.

And while the show has always offered the latest in tools and practices, the history is never far away,

he says.

Gunning begins his two-year term as president, taking over the post from George Sandercock, with many years of show experience behind him, but admits the planning and preparation has become second nature to organizers, many of whom have been involved since the first show in 1988.

The annual show that began with an exhibitors list in the dozens has also grown a significant reputation throughout the province, he adds, and is now widely known as the premier agricultural show in eastern Ontario.

The Wednesday-Thursday event is both an agri-

cultural exhibition and an educational tool, organizers say, providing an opportunity for increased industry awareness both for farmers and the general public. Featuring displays and demonstrations of the latest in farming technology alongside some of the oldest operating machines in existence, as well as live entertainment, family activities, craft workshops and sales, livestock exhibits and the various plowing matches themselves, the Hastings County Plowing Match and Farm Show now routinely draws more than 15,000 visitors.

And Gunning says while the weather always plays a key role in attendance figures, expectations are high this year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a few new things happening so it just keeps expanding,â&#x20AC;? he says.

Along with ongoing demonstrations and workshops within the showâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tent City, plowing competitions are planned throughout the show for various tractor classes as well as the antique and horse-

Centre Hastings opens another information centre

By Diane Sherman

EMC News - Madoc - The Municipality of Centre Hastings opens another tourist information centre Friday, June 7, just east of the junction of Highways 7 and 62.

The new location is in addition to an information centre at the Centre Hastings park on Durham Street south where the skate park and splash pad are located.

Municipal employee Shannon Burke is managing the booth with volunteer help from local

residents Janet Armstrong and Deanne Baldwin.

The booth is scheduled to be open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from noon until six p.m. throughout summer tourist season and closing during the winter months.

The hut-like structure was built by Grade 12 students of the Renovation and Restoration class of Centre Hastings Secondary School under direction of instructor Brad Olsen.

Monday they were about to

put the information sign onto the structure.

Deputy-reeve Tom Simpson said the Economic Development Committee determined last year, that a location on the Trans Canada route would be good for local business.

“We immediately asked if the high school class would take on the project,” he said.

Bob Doyle, proprietor of the Madoc McDonald’s restaurant, donated use of the land at the northeast side of the crossroads.

Grade 12 CHSS students of the Renovation and Restoration class gathered June 3 at the tourist booth they built for the Municipality of Centre Hastings. Up front is teacher Brad Olsen with Joshua Fenton, Gabriel Hall, Roger Vanattan and Steve Moreau. In behind are Nick Reimer, Josh Nicholson, Ryan Davis, Colton McKinnon and Lawrence McFaul, with Bob Doyle and Deputy-reeve Tom Simpson. In the centre are Janet Armstrong, Shannon Burke and Deanne Baldwin. Photo: Diane Sherman
