News - Quinte West - The annual Iris Awards were presented in council Monday night to recipients from all four wards, representing the best gardens in the city. “We have expanded our coverage to all four wards and covered over 150 miles,” said Wendy Phillips, president of the Trenton Horticultural Society and Garden Club. “It was really exciting.” She said she appreciated the support and wonderful gifts provided by the city. She presented the awards with Mayor John Williams. The recipients were invited to the multi-purpose room afterward for refreshments. A presentation was also made by the Upper Canada Chapter of Landscape Ontario for commercial beautification, presented by president Terry Childs to Lezlie Miller who was standing in for Bonita Glover of The Garden Network. In Frankford Ward, Wayne and Beverley MacDonald took first place, John and Tina Keay were second and Barbara Bamber was third. In Trenton Ward, first place went to Rodger and Helene Courtney, second place to Linda Cruikshank and third to Joseph and Donna Hickerson. In Sidney Ward, Lorne and Sidney Power were first, Marcel Menin and Sheree Chard tied for second, and John Mortimer took third. Marcel Menin thanked everyone and said he was from Belgium and had also lived in Quebec but was most happy to be here. In Murray Ward, Tony and Dianne Hannam placed first, Elmer Tastula was second and John and Sarah Risk were third place.

Council defers decision on consolidated Public Works facility

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - A proposed $20-million consolidated Public Works facility will not go ahead until a public meeting has taken place. “The public should be brought into consultations,” said Terry Cassidy at council Monday night. He noted that the public was involved in other big ticket items like city hall and the YMCA. In public input, Bob Coker, the only person in attendance speaking on the issue, said the decision was premature. “The details have been left out,” he said. “Council is asked to

vote yes or no.” He asked why the existing facilities had not been maintained and now need to be replaced. He wanted to know why $20 million was being spent on something that would not improve the quality of life of any of the city residents. “It’s rather expensive,” he said. “Maybe it’s a bad idea to have it all in one place.” Fred Kuypers agreed that a public meeting should be held. Jim Harrison commented that the issue has been several years in the works. However, Mayor John Williams noted that it has all been “in camera” out of public view.

Terry Cassidy said, “This city should be open and transparent. It is appropriate to let people know. Let’s invite comment. It might even make the project better.” Leslie Roseblade added, “Why push it through?” Sally Freeman felt a public meeting should be held in a couple of weeks or a month so they can be completely open. Bob Wannamaker said he had no problem with a public meeting. Paul Kyte asked if the delay would affect the 2014 budget. Director of Finance David Clazie said it is already included in the

capital plan for 2014-2015. CAO Charlie Murphy said they need to give the public two weeks notice about the public meeting. Council will make a decision on December 16. A presentation on the new building was given by Chris Hall of Ventin Group (VG) Architects, outlining why a new structure would save the city money by consolidating old public works buildings throughout Trenton, Sidney, Murray and Frankford wards. He noted the old buildings are inadequate and have insufficient storage and maintenance space. Please see “Buildings” on page 3.

News - Brighton - It seemed to be easy sailing when Economic Development Manager Elisha Purchase revealed the winning tender for the municipal branding strategy last week at the Brighton Economic Development Committee meeting. Tenzing Communications scored highly with everybody around the table at a subcommittee meeting, convened to select the winning candidate. “What they brought forward really complements what we wanted to do and it really touched on the community, which we found missing from some of the other proposals,” she told the committee. Another plus was the suggestion of an AprilMay deadline from Tenzing staff. “That way, we can start implementing the brand before our heavy tourism season,” explained Purchase. The $39,610 project was given the go-ahead by municipal council on July 15 and a request for proposal was approved on September 16. But when it was presented to municipal council for the final thumbs-up at their regular meeting on Monday night, the waters got stormy. So stormy, in fact, the mayor was ejected from the meeting. Councillor John Martinello fired the first salvo. “I think there might be better ways of branding ourselves rather than spending 40,000 taxpayer dollars,” he said. “Before we spend a cent on this, we should be spending money on the [municipal building] washroom and other things that would better brand us than this strategy.” “This council approved spending a considerable amount of money and resources on developing a Community Development Plan, which is aimed at bringing business to the community and restoring the balance between residential and commercial-industrial assessments,” countered Deputymayor Craig Kerr. “It’s the first step to getting economic development finally moving in this community. To suggest we should take that money and put it into some infrastructure project, which is already budgeted and in process, simply demonstrates a complete misunderstanding of the focus of what we’re doing for economic development.” “I don’t know why we go through the agony of preparing annual budgets for this municipality,” he added. “We have an approved budget that provides funds for this project; we tendered it and it came in under budget.” “With all due respect, the budget was approved by only 57 per cent of council,” said Mayor Mark Walas. “And that’s a majority,” said Kerr. “It sounds like there are some deep cuts as far as percentages of councillors who support budgets and those who don’t,” said Councillor Tom Rittwage. “And lied to the people on Addison Street,” said Walas. That’s when Rittwage declared a point of personal privilege and demanded an apology. “There is no privilege,” said Walas. “You owe the people sitting around this table an apology,” said Rittwage. “No sir,” said Walas. “I suggest you remove yourself from this meeting,” said Rittwage. “I’m not removing myself, thank you,” said Walas. “You have called people liars and that is an all-time low in these council chambers in front of a room full of people,” said Rittwage. After the ruling of the presiding officer was rejected by a majority of council, in keeping with the rules of the Procedural Bylaw, Rittwage said, “We are waiting for your apology.” “There is no apology,” said Walas. “Then you need to leave,” said Rittwage. “No,” said Walas. “That’s the rule,” said Rittwage. According to the bylaw, when a ruling has not been heeded, a member of council may be expelled from the meeting for improper conduct. “So that’s the final ruling you have on that?” Walas asked CAO Gayle Frost. “It’s not my ruling, it’s the Procedural Bylaw,” she answered. “I read the bylaw.” After the mayor left council chambers, Rittwage made his final point. “A community that is fighting for every inch of economic ground with other communities in this part of the province cannot put up a ‘not open for business’ sign, period,” he said. “A vote opposed to this says ‘we’re not interested in business.’” “This project is no different than any other budgeted item,” concluded Councillor Mike Vandertoorn. “We’re just following through, making sure the work gets done and it’s gone through the proper tender process.” In a recorded vote, the proposal was approved. Kerr, Rittwage, Vandertoorn and Councillor Emily Rowley voted in favour with Martinello and Councillor Mary Tadman opposed.

Gala raises funds for TMH Foundation News - Quinte West - Two hundred and forty guests boarded the Trenton Memorial Hospital - Orient Express last Saturday for a thrilling ride. The night began with delicacies from L’Auberge du France and from beginning to end, the TMHF Gala Girls didn’t disappoint. A sold-out crowd was attracted to the high quality, hard-to-get auction items. They were entertained by the dance band Variety, amused by the humour of Boyd Sullivan and tempted by auctioneer Jim Nelson to purchase collector’s jerseys, sporting events, unique train journeys and of course a trip on the Orient Express. By the time the train reached its destination the winner was Trenton Memorial Hospital and its patients as more than $304,529.16 (net) was raised for the new Medical Day Clinic and a variety of new pieces of medical equipment. (This total does not include proceeds from the bar or any gifts in kind.) Last year, this event raised $284,032 net for telemetry equipment an ECG and bladder scanner. This year, during the Fund-a-Cause portion of the night, a total of 35 donors stepped up to show their support for TMH, in response to an

ask made by Dr. Chris Hayman and Dr. Robbie Iny for new reprocessing equipment, hospital beds and stretchers. Raffle winners were announced with Darrell Smith, Investors Group, coincidentally a sponsor of the event for the past two years winning the first prize, a $7,500 gold and diamond bangle from HD Rolf. Second prize, a cruise for two on the Royal Caribbean Adventure of the Seas in February 2014, went to Carole Knockleby of Trenton and third prize, a Vermont Castings barbecue donated by Dow’s Climate Care, went to Elaine Devouge. “We are extremely grateful to our sponsors, attendees, donors and many volunteers who made this night the success it was. Everyone can take great pride in knowing they are helping to save lives, each and every day, through their support of this event,” says Wendy Warner, executive director of the TMH Foundation. “I’d also like to acknowledge the support of Carol and Roger Lamoureux and Dave Cook who shared their personal stories with our Gala guests and why their contributions are so important.”

Trenton Rotary honours CFB Trenton Night. The banquet held in the air museum on the base is traditionally held on or near Remembrance Day and has been an annual event for the club for about 20 years, said longtime member Colonel (Ret.) Lionel Bourgeois. “We ask base officials to pick a number of their personnel who qualify by some sort of special merit to send as our guests,” he said. Colonel David Lowthian, who took over as base commander just a few months ago, was speaker for the evening. While new as c/o, he has served on the base for some years in previous postings. “We consider CFB Trenton as our home and we’re looking forward to retiring in this area,” he said.

many other buildings. Work on the long-range overhaul started a few years ago, and “we’re on time and on budget,” he said, suggesting the work is “about half completed.” He also reported that the large land purchase on the north side of the base for the “Joint Task Force II” is “not part of the $860 million, but a complete new project.” He said there are security issues about details, but he expects activity might start over the next few years and it will involve “hundreds” of new personnel, bringing many new families into the Quinte area. He spelled out that the military operates under federal guidelines to protect Canadians at home, abroad and Canadians and others under disaster or emergency situations. Colonel Lowthian as well as his Chief Warrant Officer, Sandor Gyuk, were both made honorary Rotarians as part of the night’s proceedings.

reports for November 2013 The Dairy Management Club has had an amazing summer touring farms and learning about the different management styles of each operation. Our third meeting was held in neighbouring Peterborough County at the Stockdale and Barr farms. Embrdale, a master breeder herd, owned by the Stockdale family is a very well managed farm that milks 60 cows in a tie-stall three times per day. The Barr family of Bargeolane Farms just down the road milks 50 Holsteins. They received the Farm Family of the Year Award for Peterborough County in 2011. The hosts at each farm were thanked for giving us the opportunity to view and learn about their operations. The Club Achievement day was an incredible day touring farms near Ottawa. Karen Velthuis, a 4-H dairy club leader in Carleton, met us at the first farm and proceeded to be our tour guide for the day. Our first stop was the Hofhuis’s robot barn. This new barn had some unique European features that have been successful additions for them. The stall head rails are arched in the middle to help the cows lay straighter in the stalls and provides them more room to get up in the stalls. Their bedding is a limestone and chopped straw mix that keeps the cows very clean and dry. The next stop was Midlea Holsteins where we were

able to tour another beautiful new barn. Midlea is a sand-bedded freestall which houses the milking herd, dry cows and heifers under the same roof. They have a really neat milking system where the majority of the equipment is kept in a basement so that it stays clean and lasts longer. Midlea also houses a heifer of each of the seven dairy breeds in Canada and they raise them until they are breeding age heifers for the Canadian Agriculture Museum in Ottawa. The third farm we went to visit was Riverdown Holsteins, a master breeder herd owned by Karen Velthuis and her husband John. We toured around their very well-kept tie-stall and admired their show cattle. Karen served us a delicious barbeque lunch and then we headed to our final destination, Ferme Gillette. Ferme Gillette, another master breeder herd, that is well-known for their Holstein genetics around the world. They have bred many of todays high genomic and type sires. We were able to see both their show herd and commercial herd. The show herd boasted many excellent cattle. They milk three times per day at both barns and have phenomenal milk production. They house a total of 1150 cattle. We thanked each of our hosts with a gift basket of locally made cheese. We learned so much and had a great day despite the very hot temperatures.

works and showed us how they access and use the information. We thanked Jenna for hosting us and being so candid in answering our many questions.

After visiting Vishnu, our tour guide took us to see the Gorillas. We went backstage with them, and got to talk to their zookeepers.

Our fifth meeting was held on August 28th at 7:30 at Milligen Farms. The Milligens led us around their new barn where they milk the cows using a 28 stall rotary parlour. They are very happy with the rotary as the cows like riding on the carousel and it allows them to quickly milk 125 cows in just over an hour. The cows are separated into two groups and a bull is run with each group. They use chopped straw for bedding and are happy with how it keeps the cows clean and dry. We thanked the Milligens for hosting us and showing us around their farm.

After lunch we saw monkeys, lots of monkeys! We also saw the white Arctic Wolves. They were so cool. The Polar Bear was near the wolves. He was so big. My friend Amy and I went into a cave and saw him through a small window. He came right over to us.

Our fourth meeting was held on August 14th at Jongenotter Farms. Jenna Jongenotter, the herdsperson, was our tour guide. She told us all about the recent renovations they made on their family farm to successfully convert their tie-stall barn to a robot barn. The cow’s milk production has increased and they are now able to better manage their cows making use of the rumination identification tags worn by each cow. Jenna explained how the computerized system

My 4-H group went to the Toronto Zoo for our end-ofyear celebration. When we got to the zoo, we were put in groups with tour guides. Our group went to meet Vishnu the rhino, on a back stage pass. Vishnu is adorable. We got to answer the zookeeper’s questions and win carrots. Then we got to feed Vishnu the carrots. We got to pet him too. I fed him 5, and he dropped some of them, but I just picked them up and fed him again. Vishnu liked to be pet too. He was very friendly.

The Dairy Management Club had a fantastic first year! We are very thankful to each family that opened up their barn and gave of their time to answer questions and explain their management styles. On behalf of all the members we would once again, like to thank our leaders, Brian Sills and Jake Talsma, for giving their time to lead and organize our meetings.

We went to see the newest animals at the zoo, the Panda Bears. They were cute. After that, we went to see the pink flamingos. They are so pretty. I also liked the seahorses. Boy seahorses can have the babies, and the girls don’t! We had a very fun day at the Zoo! As reported by Beatrice Lake The 4-H Motto:

Bata Shoe Factory being redeveloped

News - Batawa - Batawa Development Corporation (BDC) is beginning the restoration and redevelopment of the former Bata Shoe Factory into residential and commercial use. “It begins with the partial demolition you see today,” explains Heather Candler, manager BDC. “This includes the removal of the single storey addition, five-storey addition to the north, elevator shaft, stairs and exterior materials, including the original brick.” Priestly Demolition has been contracted to complete this work and tasked with diverting as much of this material from landfill as possible. They have hired a local crew of nine who have been at work on the project for several months now. Once the partial demolition is complete, the structure will remain open as preparations begin for redevelopment. Details will soon be announced of the new Shoe Factory redevelopment. The history of Bata Shoe Factory goes back to 1939, when accompanied

by 100 Czech families, Thomas J. Bata emigrated from Czechoslovakia to Canada. He was the only son of Tomas Bata who had built a very, large, international shoe enterprise in Czechoslovakia and died in an airplane crash before World War II. Young Thomas decided to leave his home country a short period before the German Army marched in. After his arrival in Canada he initially bought an old paper mill in Frankford and started to manufacture shoes with the help of over 100 Czech families who had followed him to Canada. Soon after their arrival they started to build a new factory and housing in Batawa. There were two schools, two churches and sports facilities. At a later date a post office and a bank were added. Originally most of the inhabitants of Batawa were of Czech origin and retained many of their traditions. In addition to the shoe factory, they also built a plant to make shoe machinery. However, during wartime the engineering plant concentrated

on the war effort and made various high precision machine parts such as gyroscopes for the armed forces. By 1989, the Bata factory employed 1,500 in the shoe factory and 380 in the engineering division. It was a truly flourishing community. The wartime housing, which had been subsidized by the Bata Shoe Company, was being replaced by well built bungalows owned by the occupants. In the years to come the engineering division was sold to Invar, one of the Linamar companies making automotive parts, and remains active today, employing more than 450 people. Gradually the shoe factory reduced its production as labour costs in Canada were very high and more and more shoes were being imported, particularly from China. By the time the factory closed, the residents of Batawa found other careers but many remain in their homes in the village, keeping the spirit of a small town strong. Many in surrounding communities still have connections with the original

Czech families. There is a large group the world, who still maintain a strong of “Batawa Kids,” people who were sense of kinship to Batawa. born in Batawa and today live all over

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

A “Dear Daryl” letter Dear Editor, Below is a letter sent to MP Daryl Kramp. Ahoy Daryl, If Shakespeare were alive today he would certainly grasp the opportunity to write a play about the current state of affairs in the Senate of Canada. At the same time he would no doubt be hard-pressed to determine whether it should be billed as a comedy or as a tragedy with myriad ramifications. Be that as it may be, I learned long ago that

history is rife with a lamentable catalogue of disasters that took place because good men did nothing when they were faced with situations that cried out for a measure of timely participation. So much for the preamble. I dare say this communication is only one of the dozens, if not hundreds of others that have as their focus the current crisis in the Red Chamber. In that regard I stand shoulder to shoulder with the well-respected Senator Hugh Segal

concerning the importance of his decision to vote against the motion that is under consideration. Simply put, I hold to the opinion that the matter at issue is one that involves the right of due process for the three senators who are alleged to have betrayed the trust that was placed in them. It is for that reason that the proper forum for discussions, concerning their guilt or innocence, is a court of law where deliberations would take into account the findings of the RCMP that result from their

ongoing investigations. The late and legendary Albert Einstein knew what he was talking about when he opined, “A foolish faith in authority is the worst enemy of truth.” I like to think that you will cast your vote for or against the motion based upon your understanding of the wishes of your constituents. Sadly yours, P. H. (Phil) Etter, Belleville

the subject. This new information series is meant to bring attention to the low interest rates clients are receiving from GICs and other deposit like fixed income investments. These low rates combined with longer time spent in retirement are a serious challenge for many (retired) investors. In addition, inflation and taxes on these investments eat away at retirement savings. Many people are not aware that there are other safe, guaranteed and even secured investments out there paying 5.00%, 6.50% or sometimes more, without exposing their money to market risks. Christian’s statement: “I found in my business practice that many clients do not ask their advisor questions and settle for these very low interest rates without even knowing about the other products available to them. They count on the Advisor to bring the best solutions to them.” The first presentation will be held on Tuesday, November 19th, 2013 at 6:30pm at the Trenton Christian School on 340 2nd Dug Hill Road, located south of Walmart in Trenton. The presentation will last approx. 30-40 minutes plus Q&A for a maximum of 22 guests. R.S.V.P. is strongly recommended.

The race to Mars

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Dear Editor, In a speech to the Empire Club some years ago, cabinet minister Barbara MacDougall stated that greed was good; she went on to praise those who motivated by greed innovated and created wealth. Barb, like her audience, would have considered greed in those who worked in the offices and factories of these companies to have been a terrible thing. With the advent of the “free trade deal,” greed gained further prominence; investor rights now trump workers’ rights, residents’ rights and even sovereign rights while trampling on the environment, all in the name of higher profits. Those filling the chairs at the Empire Club loved it. Investors can now sue governments who try to protect their water: we have a U.S. oil company suing Canada for $250 million for being prevented by the Quebec government from fracking under the St. Lawrence. The Canadian

Greed made law

government is fond of praising the investor. Often this means buying a company: Electric Motor, Caterpillar, Peterbilt, Stelco, etc., and shutting them down to move production to low wage areas in Mexico, or the southern states. We are assured this is good for us and for Canada. The biotech industry just gave itself an award, advertised as “the foremost international award” for improving the quantity and quality or availability of food in the world. Monsanto (remember Agent Orange) was one of the winners; it has pushed GMO Roundup ready crops to the point where they now co-habitat with Roundup ready super weeds. In India nearly 300,000 farmers have committed suicide after being driven into overwhelming debt since switching to Monsanto’s Bt cotton. Bt cotton marketed as resistant to bollworm, it has proven to produce inferior yields, together with new pests requiring increased use of even

more toxic pesticides. In the end, desperate farmers often use the same pesticides to take their own life. Until earlier in the year, thousands of offshore workers were brought here to work in jobs from mining to fast food franchises at 15 per cent below our minimum wage. Only public outcry led to changes in the rules, which had been put in place to drive down wages and further weaken the unions in Canada. As these companies benefited, the increased profit went to the executives and shareholders, none to the workers often considered expendable and easily replaced by management. Under the new CETA (free trade deal) agreement, the European pharma giants will suck another $1.5 or 2 billion more from Canadian pockets; in return Alberta will sell more beef. The transfer of “investor rights” continues with municipalities and provinces banned from contracts which call for hiring local

employees. We saw how too big to fail financial corporations stuck the taxpayer in the U.S. housing bubble. The Harper government had eliminated the need for down payments and raised the repayment period to 40 years on CHMC mortgages. Our own housing bubble may yet hit home in spite of moves to repair the mistake. Looking at the small sampling above, it seems obvious that either our leaders cannot see past the next election period/quarterly dividend or that they simply do not care about our children’s futures. Canada is just a place to suck the minerals, oil and gas out as quickly as possible to maximize profit, damn the environment, the people and the water. Signing trade deals, which turn these trends into law, really is the worst idea I can think of. Paul Whittaker, Gilmour

Eco-terrorists pose a significant reminder

Dear Editor, Regarding Rolly Ethier’s letter, Eco-terrorists pose a significant threat. Mr. Ethier’s contempt for Native North Americans is palpable. He has conveniently side stepped the fundamental, driving issues. His simplistic, pro-military stance illustrates an all-too-common, onedimensional and self-centred view of the world around him. My wife is a Native North American. I have had the privilege and good fortune to meet and get to know many Native North Americans. Respectfully, I would suggest that the driving anxiety among Natives is the atrocious, thoughtless, unfair and cruel treatment these people have endured. From the initial arrival of Europeans and on to this day, Native people have been persecuted. The not-too-distant past is particularly horrific. Deliberate cultural genocide, residential schools, reservations, families torn apart, languages lost, and all by order of our government. All in recent, living memory. We should be ashamed. Our actions have rendered indigenous people as refugees in their own backyard. If this scenario was to unfold anywhere in the world today the G7 nations would unite and quash it with all their might. The parallels between Hitler’s final solution and the colonization of North America are appalling. There is an inherent hypocrisy to champion the heroes of World War II while simultaneously readying arms against

an indigenous people. Remember, the land you live on was taken from Native people through a very tenuous, one-sided and selfserving process. It is essentially the spoils of war. Except the “enemy” couldn’t muster up much of a fight. It was stolen from a steward,

proven to be a superb ecologist and conservationist. Tremendous irony when you look at where we are now. Instead of planning how you are going to bring the full weight of the law down upon Native people yet again, think about how we all could give something back. Reflect on how

vast, rich and plentiful this country is. Question and examine how it was “acquired.” Victors write the history. The defeated are muzzled. I know we could never, fully, make amends. But we could do a lot better. Greg Monk Roseneath

Dear Editor, As I write this my power is still out. It’s 11 p.m. and it has been out since 1 p.m. Friday, November 1, so that’s ten hours so far. Oh, I have a backup generator which cost me about $5,000 and it keeps the critical things running—but by no means everything. After pretty much having to get it I wrote to Hydro One suggesting somewhat sarcastically that they might like to pay for it. As with previous letters I had written them, I got no reply. I live on Presqu’ile Point with Presqu’ile Bay on one side, and Presqu’ile Park across Bayshore Road on the other side. Out here the power lines are strung on poles above ground and when the power goes out it is always because of tree branches falling on the lines at the same place—the “Y” where the road to the camping sites and the day-use sites goes one way and Bayshore Road goes the other. It is forest there and it happens when there is a storm or high winds. The Hydro One crews come out every year or two and tell

us that our lovely maple trees have to be butchered to prevent this from happening in front of our houses, but they never seem to deal with where the outages are actually caused. Fixing a high percentage of the several times a year outages would seem to require simply burying the line for about a 100-metre stretch (where all the downed line events occur). Too expensive? Surely not, given how often they have to come out and the number of workers and the equipment involved. It has to be a lot more expensive to always be doing that, than to just bury a 100metre stretch of the line and fix the problem for good. I have written to say that, and the park staff tell me they too have complained repeatedly to Hydro One. Every time it happens during the summer they have to close the overnight camping sites. While I am complaining, let me suggest that we should not be charged for outage times, on the theory that we shouldn’t have to pay anything for when we’re not getting anything.

And change the ridiculous flat rate “delivery charge” system. It makes no sense to levy a delivery charge like that “up front.” I went away for most of one summer and one or two lights were left on, but I got a big bill for that time period. It was the delivery charge which carried on unchanged even when I was using hardly any electricity. It’s certainly no incentive to be “energy efficient” and save on one’s hydro bill, when a large portion of the bill is the delivery charge, unrelated to how much electricity is actually used. Final complaint: Putting in a “smart meter” system and time-ofday rates, then very soon jacking up the rates for the low-rate times, is just plain unethical! In ordinary commercial operations that would be called “bait and switch.” If rates have to be raised then raise them for the high-rate times. It’s now after midnight and the power is still out. So it’s now 11 hours of no hydro power. Roger Green, Brighton

Hydro One, power outages, and how we pay

Editorial - The Curse of Mars also applies to Asian countries. About two-thirds of the attempted missions to Mars have failed, many of them even before leaving Earth orbit, and most of the rest when they tried to land. Japan’s only Mars mission failed in 1998, China’s first try failed when the Russian rocket carrying its Mars orbiter into space fell back to Earth in 2011—and so India seized the opportunity to be the first Asian country to go to Mars. Gwynne Dyer Fifteen months after the decision was announced by Prime Minister Manmohan Singh in an Independence Day speech from the Red Fort in Delhi, India’s half-tonne Mangalyaan vehicle is ready to be sent off to the red planet. Unless the Mars Curse gets it, by the time you read this it will be in orbit, boosted there by an Indian rocket, and within two weeks it will set course for Mars. There is something faintly ridiculous about India and China “racing” to be the first Asian country to reach Mars, but it’s no more ridiculous than the Russian-American space race of the 1960s. Besides, to be fair to the Indian Space Research Organisation, the launch window for making a relatively lowenergy transition to a Mars orbit will close before the end of this month, and it won’t open again for more than two years. The Indian space program operates on an amazingly small budget (about $1 billion a year), but it has put dozens of satellites in orbit that provide practical benefits for earthbound Indians: remote sensing, flood management, cyclone alerts, fishery and forest management, etc. But that’s all in near space; the question is really whether long-range space exploration is a rational proposition. Nationalism is part of the motivation behind every country’s space program, and while it has its comical side it does at least persuade the political authorities to provide the large sums that are needed. China is planning to land a rover on the Moon next month, and is talking about a manned landing there by 2024. That will certainly speed up India’s manned space program. Like the old Russo-American space race, the ChineseIndian one will accelerate the development of new technologies and techniques. It will fill some of the gap left by the loss of momentum in the older space powers, and some useful science will get done. But the biggest reason for welcoming the entry of major new players in space exploration is the one that everybody is too embarrassed to mention: the future of the human race. Well, almost everybody. Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of SpaceX, the private company that aims to dominate the delivery-to-orbit service once provided by NASA, actually wants to create a human colony on Mars in his own lifetime—and he’s 41 now. He is a serious player, whose large fortune (derived from his creation and subsequent sale of PayPal) is now devoted to manufacturing electric cars and building space transportation systems. Both projects are prospering, and he sees them as providing the financial and technological basis for pursuing his real goal: spreading human beings beyond this single planetary habitat while the launch window for that is still open. Musk was quite frank about that in an interview with Rory Carroll in The Guardian newspaper last July. “The lessons of history suggest that civilisations move in cycles,” he said. “You can track that back quite far—the Babylonians, the Sumerians. We’re in a very upward cycle right now, and hopefully that remains the case. But it might not. “There could be some series of events that cause that technology level to decline. Given that this is the first time in 4.5 billion years where it’s been possible for humanity to extend life beyond Earth, it seems like we’d be wise to act while the window was open and not count on the fact that it will be open a long time.” I’ll let you in on a little secret. That is a big part of the motivation (though a rarely admitted part) for half the people who work in any of the national space programmes, including India’s. They value the science, and they may even revel in the glory from time to time, but that’s what it’s really about.

Nationalism is part of the motivation behind every country’s space program, and while it has its comical side it does at least persuade the political authorities to provide the large sums that are needed. China is planning to land a rover on the Moon next month, and is talking about a manned landing there by 2024. That will certainly speed up India’s manned space program. Like the old Russo-American space race, the ChineseIndian one will accelerate the development of new technologies and techniques. It will fill some of the gap left by the loss of momentum in the older space powers, and some useful science will get done. But the biggest reason for welcoming the entry of major new players in space exploration is the one that everybody is too embarrassed to mention: the future of the human race. Well, almost everybody. Elon Musk, the founder and CEO of SpaceX, the private company that aims to dominate the delivery-to-orbit service once provided by NASA, actually wants to create a human colony on Mars in his own lifetime—and he’s 41 now. He is a serious player, whose large fortune (derived from his creation and subsequent sale of PayPal) is now devoted to manufacturing electric cars and building space transportation systems. Both projects are prospering, and he sees them as providing the financial and technological basis for pursuing his real goal: spreading human beings beyond this single planetary habitat while the launch window for that is still open. Musk was quite frank about that in an interview with Rory Carroll in The Guardian newspaper last July. “The lessons of history suggest that civilisations move in cycles,” he said. “You can track that back quite far—the Babylonians, the Sumerians. We’re in a very upward cycle right now, and hopefully that remains the case. But it might not. “There could be some series of events that cause that technology level to decline. Given that this is the first time in 4.5 billion years where it’s been possible for humanity to extend life beyond Earth, it seems like we’d be wise to act while the window was open and not count on the fact that it will be open a long time.” I’ll let you in on a little secret. That is a big part of the motivation (though a rarely admitted part) for half the people who work in any of the national space programmes, including India’s. They value the science, and they may even revel in the glory from time to time, but that’s what it’s really about.

Local Scouts recognized for earning honours News - Belleville - Joining Scouts Canada is an opportunity for youth to grow and learn life skills, and in Belleville on Saturday, 32 Scouts from the White Pine Council were recognized by receiving the top honours a Scout at their respective level could achieve. “It’s a very prestigious award, it takes a lot of commitment and time,” said Scouts Canada Algonquinte Public Relations representative Nicholas Fry. “They do spend so much time, and a lot of it has to be done on their own. It’s development of leadership skills, citizenship and good citizenship.” The Chief Scout’s Award and the Queen’s Venturer Award both recognize excellence in Scouting, however, each covers a different age range. For the younger group, the Chief Scout’s Award is partly a recognition of all the badges earned up until that point, and offers a stringent set of requirements in order to achieve the award, including organizing and conducting a camp for the Scout Troop, organizing and conducting an environ-

mental project such as a tree planting, and completing 30 hours of community service. The Queen’s Venturer award has similar requirements, but is aimed at older Scouts, and asks that Scouts take a regular leadership award with younger members and complete a total of 100 hours of community service. At the awards presentation, three local Scouts from the local Second Sidney troop were honoured with the Chief Scout’s Award: Hanna St. John, Kaitlyn Sponagle and Oliver Smithrin. “I think everything we teach, is teaching life skills, making them a more rounded person,” Fry said. “It’s not aimed at just one thing, it’s not like a sport where you’re aimed at just winning the game or being the best on your team … you’re getting a more rounded view of life.” Scouts Canada is yearround organization that has engaged nearly 17 million Canadian youth since forming over 100 years ago. For more information on the local chapters of Scouts Canada and how to join, contact Fry by emailing <info@algonquinte.ca>.

Also honoured with the Chief Scout’s Award was Kaitlyn Sponagle (c), joined by Jodie Jenkins, Scout leader Lyn Sponagle, MP Daryl Kramp, Hanna, Mayor Neil Ellis, Zachery Prescott - White Pine Council Youth Commissioner, and Hanna St. John received the Chief Scout’s Award at a special ceremony Saturday, where she was Dylan Reinhart - White Pine Council Commissioner. joined by (l-r) Councillor Jodie Jenkins, Scout Leader Nellie Hodgson, MP Daryl Kramp, Hanna, Mayor Neil Ellis, Zachery Prescott - White Pine Council Youth Commissioner, and Dylan Reinhart - White Pine Council Commissioner.

Peter Smith, the guardian angel you’ll love dealing with By Steve Jessel

News - Belleville - His catchy jingle can be heard at every Belleville Bulls home game, but Quinte Children’s Foundation 2014 Guardian Angel of the Year Peter Smith is hoping to have a more lasting impression on the community he’s called home since 2004. “It feels great, I’m very honoured and I feel privileged,” Smith told reporters. “You don’t do this for recognition for sure; you do it for all the right reasons.” In a brief ceremony Monday, members of the Quinte Children’s Foundation announced that Peter Smith has been named the recipient of the longrunning Guardian Angel award, given annually to members of the community who strive to make a difference through fund raising and volunteerism. Smith, the owner and operator of the local GM dealership, will be honoured during the “Carnaval Noir” Gala held on March 1, The third local recipient was Oliver Smithrin, joined here by by Jodie Jen- 2014, at the Sears Atrium. “Naming a guardian angel is always a kins, Scout leader Lyn Sponagle, MP Daryl Kramp, Hanna, Mayor Neil Ellis, Zachery Prescott - White Pine Council Youth Commissioner, and Dylan Rein- thrill of the year,” said Quinte Children’s Foundation executive director Connie hart - White Pine Council Commissioner.

Reid. “It’s to recognize those individuals and organizations that go above and beyond … sometimes they don’t like the recognition, but it’s just to say thank you for everything they do.” Along with serving as a past chair of the Quinte Children’s Foundation board of directors, Smith has also been involved with the Belleville Rotary Club, Belleville Minor Hockey, Belleville Bearcats, Belleville Bulls, the Canadian Cancer Society, the United Way of Quinte, the YMCA, Hospice Quinte, the Trenton and Belleville Memorial Hospital Foundations. “I love this community,” Smith said. “It’s a great community, and I’ve never seen such a group of people get together—and I don’t care what you’re raising money for, whether it be the hospital, whether it be Rotary—you name it, this community gets behind fund raisers big time.” For ticket information on the 2014 Guardian Angel Gala taking place on March 1, visit <www.quintechildrensfoundation.com>.

NO DOUBT CONVERTING MY OIL FURNACE TO GAS PAID OFF WITH $2000 CASH IN MY POCKET BEFORE X-MAS And you can too. Let me explain.

Here’s what happened; upon renewing my Home Insurance recently, I found myself being asked politely if I can change my oil furnace to gas. I know I am not alone. So, doing a little research, I found out that there are many reasons to do so. Let me name a few; 1. Natural gas or propane is reason enough to save on energy, I understand it can be as much as 70%/year as well as provide my family with a very efficient heating and cooling system. 2. Furthermore, the Ont. Power Auth.(opa) allow up to $650 in an incentive program (with eligibility). Then a co-worker told me about Access HVAC in Belleville, ON. They offered him a financing plan under $100/mth with no payments for the first 12 mths (oac). 3. They also provided him with an additional rebate incentive which once combined with the OPA was up to $2000. 4. Apparently they converted everything for him the same day. Plus my co-worker had no gas in the area, No Problem, Access HVAC set everything with propane. My wife told me, “what are you waiting for, call them now!” She said she wants those incentives to help us with X-Mas. They guaranteed us the install before Santa even shows up this year. If I remember correctly, their Guarantee Before Santa Install Program is still available till including December, 2013. My wife found their #, its 613-689-7058. Have a Wonderful Warm Winter as my family will.

Seniors Club 105 looks for new members days a week,” notes Harold Taylor. “The ladies play snooker, all three tables, on Friday. They really enjoy it!” The club is hoping to get some grants to help pay for the expenses of running the building. They need two new furnaces and to replace the washrooms. “This building has come a long way since it started as a drop-in centre in 1952,” he notes. “It became a registered charity in 1974. We own the building

News - Trenton - Joining a seniors club doesn’t mean you have to be a “senior citizen.” “We are taking members now at 50,” said Harold Taylor, president of Trenton Senior Citizens Club 105. He said the club needs new members, and the best way to get them is to reach out to a younger crowd. Of course, there is no upper limit on age, he says with a smile. “We have over 400 members,” he said, looking around the club. “But, of course they don’t all come at once!” The club has a list of activities, and if you can’t find what you want, you can make up your own. “You can start any activity you want to do,” says 1st Vice President Joyce Aucoin. “This is not a retirement home, it’s a social club.” She said they are thinking of changing

the name to just Club 105 and leaving off the Seniors part altogether. It costs $25 a year to join, and $20 a year after that. Most of the activities cost $2 or $2.50 to attend. “We have the art club every Tuesday afternoon,” says artist Christine Pellati. “Anybody can come. It’s a social club; we have fun. We also help each other.” Jack Ethier is into carpet bowling. Members come on Wednesday afternoons and join a team to play. He says he started the game at the club and notes the carpet came from England and the balls from Australia. “It’s fun, exercise and companionship,” says Werner Schirmer. “Whoever is here can play.” The club also offers snooker, pool, scrabble, darts, crafts, wood turners, cribbage, euchre, bridge, stamp collecting, quilting and rug hooking. “We have the pool room open seven

and pay the city a dollar a year to lease the property.” He adds there is all new executive this year and changes are being made. “We are going to try and make a go of it,” he says. Fund raisers put on by the club include craft sales, dinners, barbecues, fashion shows and trips. A musical group called The Notables will entertain on December 15 with Christmas Carols.

The club has a link on Facebook for more information or drop in at 61 Bay Street Monday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. or call 613-392-5400. The next trip is to Niagara Falls on December 2 and 3 called Winter Festival of Lights, which includes a tour of the lights, a magic show, butterfly conservatory, shopping and casino and overnight at the Niagara Fallsview Hilton. Call the club for details.

Remember Together WE

They shall not grow old in our memories.

We will remember and honour them forever.

Carpet bowlers Jack Ethier and Werner Schirmer enjoy the game.

Nights just got a lot brighter snowmaking system that is still one of the best systems in Ontario, a complete overhaul of the existing lifts, repairs to all buildings including a major renovation to Guest Services this fall, the purchase of a Pisten Bully Edge for trail grooming and most significantly, the installation of a new Leitner/Poma Quad Chair Lift, all huge investments and leaps forward for a small ski hill. Given the popularity of night skiing in Batawa, its next challenge to overcome were the limitations in night lighting, including complete blackouts on one of its most popular beginner hills, Boomerang. After an exhaustive search for a solution, Batawa Ski Hill selected new lights that will provide superior illumination on the runs with significant power efficiencies over traditional lights used for night skiing. This is important as Batawa’s overriding goal is to be environmentally and fiscally responsible while providing a quality experience for their guests. “It will be really exciting to see less experienced people enjoy night skiing by having a nice easy slide down Boomerang,” says Andrew Rusynyk, general manager. Boomerang is considered a novice or beginner slope and many people who use this run during the daylight hours have expressed frustration about not being able to night ski owing to the lack of lights on that run. “We have a few more surprises in store for the Quinte area too as we move closer to our planned season Legion Branch 110 President Red MacLean (r) presented Padre Tim Nelligan of the 8 Wing Our Lady of opening on December 14,” teased Peace Chapel with a donation of $500 following the annual Legion Church Service held at the Chapel Rusynyk. “It’s going to be a great season!” on Sunday, November 3, in conjunction with Remembrance Week Activities.

The ski hill began with a band of Bata employees who pulled together and cleared the hill, first taking people to the top with a simple rope tow, and later introducing the T-bars that we are so infamous for today! Since 2006 there have been major improvements at the hill including the installation of a state-of-the-art

Kente Kiwanis Club donates to Coats and Kids

By Kate Everson

News - Quinte West - The Kente Kiwanis Club has made two recent donations to help the children in this community. The club presented cheques of $1,500 each to Coats for Kids and Adopt-a-Child programs at the Kente Kiwanis meeting at city hall on October 31. “Donations make our life a lot easier,” said fire prevention officer Robert Comeau with the Quinte West Fire Department. He said the donation will buy 25 to 35 coats for kids. “That’s outstanding,” he said. He noted the program has been

in place since 1991 organized by firefighter Paul Coveney and is now under the direction of president Chris Wigley. Last year they helped over 600 kids get new coats and scarves and mittens. They purchased 300 of the coats with the donations they received from the community. “We try to accommodate everyone, even adults, all sizes,” he noted. The program is using the Mystical Distributing warehouse at 420 Sidney Street for storage and distribution. Anyone who is a resident of Quinte West under the age of 17 can come for a new coat at the site on distribution days November 9 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. or November 13 from 7 to 9 p.m. There is

also used clothing for all ages. Bill Vandervoort noted that Quinte Access provides public transportation to the site. Comeau noted they have been getting good deals on new coats from Sears and the Children’s Place at the Quinte Mall. “We want to buy good quality coats,” he said. Matt Goodman of Rock 107 picked up a cheque for the Quinte West AdoptA-Child program. “We couldn’t do it without donations,” he said. The program has been going in the community for 25 years, providing children under the age of 13 with new indoor clothing. “This donation will help 15 to 20 kids,” he said. The program gets discounts on new clothing at Giant Tiger and other downtown businesses. A team of shoppers does the shopping between November 4 and 28. Last year they helped between 1,000 and 1,500 kids. Goodman added they had a fundraiser Hallowe’en dance at the arena and there was also a dance put on by Stix N Stones with several bands. “We have never had a shortage,” he said. “We have come very close, but with last-minute pleas on the radio, we met our goal.” The packages can be picked up at the Rock 107 office or Salvation Army or can be delivered by volunteers if needed. All recipient families are first screened by the Salvation Army

to determine need through proof of income. “The Salvation Army sees a lot of the same kids every year,” he added. Bill Vandervoort commented, “It’s mind boggling that one thousand kids need it.” Goodman said the children quickly grow out of their clothes and need new ones each year. To make a donation to Adopt-A-

Child call 613-392-1237. These programs are just two of over 27 local groups the Kente Kiwanis Club supports during the year, donating almost $20,000 from Nevada Tickets funds. Club meetings are held at city hall every Thursday morning at 10 a.m. in the multi-purpose room. New members are welcome. For information call president Paul Bowers at 613-3943890.

Hit cancer below the belt

By Steve Jessel

News - Belleville - The Canadian Cancer Society has a very public role in the community, and in the month of November the local branch is aiming to bring some awareness on a specific form of the disease that doesn’t see the light of day very often: below the belt cancer in men. All throughout November, the local CCS is raising funds for men’s cancers through the sale of locally produced chocolate mustaches, with proceeds helping support research into the types of cancer exclusive to men: prostate, penile and testicular cancer; 23,600 men in Canada will be diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2013, representing one-quarter of all cancer cases in men. “We’ve started this to help give people a local option to give to men’s cancers,” CCS fund-raising co-ordinator Matthew Del Gross said.

For local resident Ike Eisan, below the belt cancer was something he never really considered. A former member of the military, Eisan received annual medical checkups, and around 2004-2005 Eisan said doctors noticed something was wrong. After 39 radiation treatments over the following years Eisan was told he was no longer at risk, but for him, there’s one key takeaway for men from the new fund-raising campaign. “Hopefully, people will get themselves checked,” Eisan said. Eisan is now a member of a group that supports men with prostate cancer, the Quinte Prostate Cancer Support Group. The group is holding an information session at the Quinte Mall on November 16 as they have for several years, but Eisan said there’s always something odd about who comes to find out more information.

“We usually get more women that come over that ask about it than we do men, because men won’t talk about it,” he said. “They really won’t.” Many people will point to the popular Movember campaign as an avenue for supporting men’s cancers, but Del Grosso said that Movember is not associated with the Canadian Cancer Society in any way. He praised the fact that the campaign had helped draw attention to the disease, but said the new CCS campaign was a way for people to give locally; 50 per cent of funds raised support research while the remaining money helps fund local programs. To contact the local branch of the CCS and get involved by selling mustaches, call 613-962-0686. Mustaches are $3, and come in three varieties, each representing a Ike Eisan (l) and Jack Miller helped kick off the Canadian Cancer Society Below the Belt fund-raising campaign Wednesday, styling some of the mustaches now on sale to help raise funds for men’s cancer research.

At the awards presentation, three local Scouts from the local Second Sidney troop were honoured with the Chief Scout’s Award: Hanna St. John, Kaitlyn Sponagle and Oliver Smithrin. “I think everything we teach, is teaching life skills, making them a more rounded person,” Fry said. “It’s not aimed at just one thing, it’s not like a sport where you’re aimed at just winning the game or being the best on your team … you’re getting a more rounded view of life.” Scouts Canada is year-round organization that has engaged nearly 17 million Canadian youth since forming over 100 years ago.

News - Belleville - Joining Scouts Canada is an opportunity for youth to grow and learn life skills, and in Belleville on Saturday, 32 Scouts from the White Pine Council were recognized by receiving the top honours a Scout at their respective level could achieve. “It’s a very prestigious award, it takes a lot of commitment and time,” said Scouts Canada Algonquinte Public Relations representative Nicholas Fry. “They do spend so much time, and a lot of it has to be done on their own. It’s development of leadership skills,

citizenship and good citizenship.” The Chief Scout’s Award and the Queen’s Venturer Award both recognize excellence in Scouting, however, each covers a different age range. For the younger group, the Chief Scout’s Award is partly a recognition of all the badges earned up until that point, and offers a stringent set of requirements in order to achieve the award, including organizing and conducting a camp for the Scout Troop, organizing and conducting an environmental project such as a tree planting, and completing 30 hours of community service.

On the Rocks: Trenton Curling Club news

Sports - Last Friday’s fierce windstorm uprooted more than trees. It also blew 20 curling teams into town and deposited them at the Trenton Curling Club for the annual Bob Clute Mitsubishi Auto Group Men’s bonspiel. The competition, a round-robin format, began in earnest on Friday night with a total purse of $6,660 to be won. Games won and finals winners determined total team earnings. Naturally, this attracted some superb curlers and made it a very competitive bonspiel. At the end of eight more draws on Saturday, four teams had been eliminated from play-off action. The remaining 16 teams were seeded into four divisions for the Sunday morning semi-finals. By 2 p.m., the two top teams in each division squared off to determine the “Event” (division) winners. In the “D” Event, Benny

F

Brock (Trenton Curling Club) faced Dave Collyer of Belleville. This was a close match until the sixth end, when Brock faced four Collyer stones in the house. Brock needed a draw to the four foot, was heavy, and gave up four points, handing Collyer a 10 - 4 win. The “B” Event, saw Dennis Murray (Belleville) facing “Gert” Messing from Plainsfield, New Jersey. The curling gods were not kind to Messing who yielded to Murray after four ends in a lop-sided game. After the game, Messing said his team came from a two-sheet club in Plainsfield, had heard about the Trenton Club’s bonspiels and hospitality, and decided to visit us. He’ll be back next year. In the “A” Event, Guy Racette (Royal Curling Club, Toronto) faced Jim Bell from Seating is limited In one of those Unionville. “games of inches” matches,

Racette pulled ahead 7 - 4 after six ends, but then stole two more from Bell in the seventh for handshakes and the win. And last but not least, the “C” Event. Malcolm Florence from Lakefield took on Ray Bolachorek from Oshawa. Long after the sun went down, in a match lasting longer than the New York City Marathon, Florence emerged the winner. A bonspiel such as this would not be possible without a great crew of club volunteers, with special mention to Anne Coffey and her galley staff, as well as to icemaker Neil Harder. Particular thanks go to our major sponsors, who provided the bulk of the prize money: Bob Clute Mitsubishi Auto Group, Direct Energy Home Services, Krown Rust Control, Eric Reynolds CA, Quinte Regional Design, and C Smith Bus Lines.

Saturday, the Devils once again hit the highway to meet the York Simcoe Express. In a hard-fought battle the team held their own in a tight 2 - 1 loss. The lone goal for the Red Devils was scored by Matt Sherwin, assisted by Dawson Baker. Evan Morrison battled hard in net to keep this one tight for the team. Minor Peewee The Free Flow Petroleum Minor Peewee Quinte Red Devils played the South Central Coyotes in Richmond Hill on Saturday afternoon and beat them by a score of 5 - 0. Quinte out-hustled, outplayed and outshot the Coyotes by a margin of 35 - 12. Scoring for Quinte was Jacob Gilbert with a hat trick, with Maddi Wheeler and Ian Harrison each chipping in one goal. Assisting on the goals were Cooper Rogers with four, and single assists went to Nolan Dawson, Avery Cook, Marshall McFarland, Adam Thistlethwaite and Jacob Vreugdenhil.

Opening the scoring for Quinte was Jacob Vreugdenhil who buried his chance in the low slot and put his team up by one.

Quinte dominates Centennial in senior girls rugby final By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Belleville - Meghan Weinhold gave new meaning to the term “victory lap” during last Thursday’s Central Ontario Secondary School Athletic Association senior girls’ rugby final. The Quinte Secondary School Saints flank scored two tries to help her team rout the Centennial Chargers 22 - 0 at Mary-Anne Sills Park. Weinhold is in her second year of Grade 12, which means she is sometimes referred to as a “super 12 student” or a student on a “victory lap.” Her decision to return for an extra year certainly paid off for the Saints. Her second try last Thursday came later in the second half, after she picked up a loose ball at about the ten-yard line and rushed into the end zone nearly untouched. The score ended any possibility of a late Centennial comeback and was an exclamation point on a stellar fall season for the Saints. The team went undefeated in Bay of Quinte Athletic Association play, and, with the win at COSSAA, qualified for the Ontario Federation of Schools Athletic Association AA championships to be played in Hamilton this spring. The Saints won OFSAA AA the last two years and will aim for a three-peat in 2014. Weinhold said this year’s team is made up of a special group of girls. “I’ve been with them for five years and we all get along well. We’re a bunch of friends. We’re all one family.

A Centennial Chargers player faceplants a Quinte Saints player during the COSSAA senior girls’ rugby final at Mary-Anne Sills park on October 31. Despite her efforts, the Saints won 22 - 0.

“I think we have a pretty good chance [at OFSAA]. We’re going up against teams we haven’t played before. It should be interesting.” In the COSSAA final, the Saints also got tries from Madison Graves and Emily Babcock. Emma Fowler also had a two-point convert. Coach Peter Hercus said it was a pleasing win for his players, considering they knew Centennial was a worthy opponent. The teams played twice earlier this season, and, although Quinte won both times, they were both close games. The COSSAA title was also meaningful to them, considering the Saints were supposed to be a “rebuilding” team this year. “We had nine or ten new starters and we had to learn to gel as a team,” Hercus said. “During the last few weeks, the girls got stronger and stronger. The girls played for themselves and worked together. It’s pretty rare to see a complete performance like that.” The game never seemed in question, as Quinte scored three tries early in the first half to take a commanding lead. Hercus was humble in victory, suggesting that the difference was that Centennial was missing some key players owing to injuries. Weinhold thought the Saints’ key to success was their defensive play. “Our last game we played against them, we weren’t as good on defence. We worked on that a lot and this game we were really good on defences. We worked on a lot of things and it all pulled through.”

Moira claims senior boys football title By Steve Jessel

Sports - Belleville - When the Moira Trojans claimed the Bay of Quinte senior boys football championship Saturday, it wasn’t just the Centennial Chargers they

had to overcome. Amid near freezing temperatures and the driving wind and rain, the Trojans defence pitched a shutout en-route to a 30 - 0 victory over their rivals, and coach Dwayne

Lambert said he couldn’t be happier. “We talked about this all week long; we knew this was going to be a tough game. Centennial is a very disciplined, big physi-

cal team,” coach Duane Lambert said. “This is a tough championship to win … it’s our third time in a row and this is the most satisfying.” Entering the game as two-time defending champions, it didn’t take long for the Trojans to show why in the first quarter. After the two teams traded possessions early, a Centennial fumble left Moira with great field position past midfield, and quarterback Mitchell Chouinard hit receiver Cain Brown for his first of two touchdowns of the day to open up a 7 - 0 lead. On the other side, Centennial was having trouble churning out much yardage on the ground, but they weren’t the only ones. The Chargers’ defence played well to force consecutive punts from the Trojans, but things started to unravel on their next possession. After a Moira punt pinned the Chargers at their own one-yard line, the Trojans’ defence swarmed to the ball carrier and forced a rare safety, extending their lead to 9 - 0. Not long after, Brown’s second touchdown of the half after a beautiful catch and run down the sideline gave the Trojans a 16 - 0 lead, which in the end proved to be more than enough. After the Trojans Aiden McDade opened the second half with an 85-yard kickoff return

for a touchdown, the Moira defence was suffocating the rest of the way, and a late touchdown run by Renehtawaks Lefort Cummings was the final nail in the coffin for Centennial. “These kids bust their butts every night, and I’m just so happy for them,” Lambert said after the game. “I said to the guys, this game is going to be about controlling your emotions, don’t get too high, don’t get too low, and just keep an even keel, we just have to chip away, and that’s what we did. Once we got the momentum we never let it up.” The Trojans now head to

COSSA AA finals Friday at Lindsay Collegiate. “We’re looking forward to the challenge,” Lambert said. “We’ll go game a time, we say now it’s a three-game season.” In the other championship game of the day, the Quinte Saints won a close 7 - 6 victory over Centennial in the Bay of Quinte junior football championships. A defensive battle saw neither team surrender a touchdown, while Quinte’s Owen Jancar kicked a pair of field goals to help the Saints claim the title. The Saints now travel to Haliburton Thursday for the COSSA AA final.

Centennial overcomes injuries to win COSSAA junior girls’ rugby crown By Stephen Petrick

Sports - Belleville - Hannah Pick had a bandage on her wrist, a brace on her knee and a wide smile on her face after last Thursday’s Central Ontario Secondary Schools Athletic Association junior girls’ rugby final. The Centennial Chargers eight-woman scored a try to help her team to a 15 - 7 victory over the Bayside She-Devils, and the sting of her injuries were outweighed by the joy of victory. “I’m so proud of us,” she

said, almost giggling with excitement. The win wasn’t easy for Centennial, as Pick wasn’t the only banged up player. Chargers coach Eric Fetterley said four key players were unable to play at all because of injuries and a number of other girls were playing through pain. “It’s so great,” he said, shortly after the game. “We had so many kids injured. It was about heart today.” It wasn’t a big surprise that the Chargers made it to the

COSSAA final, as they finished the Bay of Quinte Athletic Association regular season in first place. However, by the time Thursday’s COSSAA title game rolled around, the team was battling so many injuries that a win seemed far from guaranteed. “Coming in today I have to say I was less than 100 per cent sure we could do this today,” Fetterley said. “That was a 100 per cent heart win today. These girls just wanted it more.” The Chargers also got tries

from Tia Svoboda and Nicole Troke during the game, which was played mostly in rain. Pick said despite the teams’ injury woes, players went into the game focused and determined to beat Bayside. The last

time the two teams played Centennial needed a kickoff to beat Bayside, so the two teams are pretty even. “This time we were more in the zone; we were ready to go,” she said.

While there is no Ontario championship for junior girls’ rugby, the win qualified the Chargers to play in the Barbarian Cup, a renowned rugby tournament played in Markham every spring.

Bulls fend off Battalion

By Steve Jessel

Remi Elie scored two goals and three points for the Bulls, but probably didn’t enjoy this hard hit by North Bay’s Dylan Blujus during the second period Saturday night. Photo: Steve Jessel

Bay didn’t let the Bulls get too comfortable. Outshooting the Bulls 14 - 9 in the opening period, rookie winger Alex Henriksson eventually solved Graham, when on a delayed penalty he banged the puck home from in close to the net. Just 35 seconds into the second period, the Battalion powerplay found success of their own in knotting the score at 2 - 2, when centre Nick Paul’s shot eluded Graham for Paul’s eighth goal of the year. Belleville did get it back though, on a powerplay opportunity of their own, when David Tomasek tipped Justin Lemcke’s shot from the point to regain the one-goal advantage. Fast forward to the third period, where the Bulls added their final powerplay goal, this one by Aaron Berisha, and the Bulls looked well on their way to their fourth win of the year, leading 4 - 2. North Bay certainly made things interesting with a late one-timer goal by Barclay

Sports - Belleville - The Belleville Bulls rode three powerplay goals and a 48-save performance by Charlie Graham to a 4 - 3 win over the visiting North Bay Battalion Saturday night, kicking off November with a much-needed win to avoid falling too far behind in the Eastern Conference standings. Forward Remi Elie scored two goals and added another assist in the victory, and has now recorded 11 points in 10 games with the club since being acquired last month. “I thought [Elie] was great; he’s got tremendous work ethic, he seems tireless,” said assistant coach Jake Grimes after the game. “He does things offensively, defensively, physically … he adds a lot to our team.” The Bulls got off to a quick start Saturday night, scoring just five minutes into the opening frame. Captain Brendan Gaunce picked up his team-leading 18th point of the season when he crossed the blue line and left the puck for Elie, who fired one home past Battalion goaltender Brendan O’Neill. With the crowd against them the Battalion started to make a few too many mistakes as the frame went on, finding themselves on the wrong end of a five-on-three powerplay after consecutive penalties. It was Elie who made them pay, scoring his second of the night and fifth of the season to give the Bulls a 2 - 0 lead, but North

Another name added to list of multiple Perfect Pie winners By John Campbell

News - Warkworth - Heather Clarke joined the ranks of Perfect Pie Contest winners who have won more than once by claiming her second top prize last Saturday. “I was shocked,” Clarke said afterward. “There’s a lot of lovely pies; I certainly didn’t expect it.” The recipe she first used to perfection in 2004 was passed on to her by her aunt, Brenda Hebnor, in Woodstock. “It seems to be a good recipe,” Clarke said. “I just reduced the ingredients to fit a foil pan.” The Warkworth Community Nursing Home personal support worker, who also won in the pumpkin category, has been entering pies for the last 17 years, piling up category wins along the way. When she first attended the event hosted annually by Warkworth Chapter No. 279 Order of Eastern Star at the Warkworth Town Hall Centre for the Arts, it was “to just see what it was all about,” Clarke said. “I thought this was out of my league, [with four-time Perfect Pie winner] Norma McCleary and all the fancy pies and all the chocolate decorations.” But she likes making pies so she decided

to make good use of her cookbook and try to improve through trial and error, she said. “Then it became a fun thing with friends, [and her] mother,” and at one point it turned into a friendly competition with a coworker at a former place of employment who uses Crisco; Clarke uses Tenderflake. The two earned honourable mentions that year. The last couple of times she entered a pecan pie, she decorated it with whipped cream and little pecans but “this year it came out of the oven and it settled, and I thought, it looks pretty good by itself, I’m not going to decorate it,” Clarke said. She began to second-guess herself after seeing what others had done with their pies among the 110 entered, but there was no need to improve on perfection, as determined by judges Doris Buttar, Joan Warner and Darren Lawn. “It was the perfect pie: good crust, good filling, perfect sweetness … [and] it was delicious,” said Lawn, making his debut as a judge at the competition. Clarke’s prize-winning entry earned $200 in the auction of all 14 category winners at the end of the event. Altogether they brought in $900 for Worthy Matron Jean Bryan’s choice of project this year—the Tim Hortons Children Foundation Send-a-Kid to Camp program—and benevolent projects supported by the Eastern Star chapter. The money will be divided about equally, as will all the other funds raised through the sale of admissions and other pie entries. The event netted about $1,520 in total. “We had a pretty good day,” said chapter member Audrey Thackeray. Although “the auctions don’t go quite as high as they used to”—last year’s pie winners netted $1,200— “the economy has tightened up and people aren’t spending as much, we did pretty well,” she said. The other category winners were: fruit (raisin) - Leslie Woof; apple - Alie Ryken; meringue (lemon) - Mary Jane Moffat; maple syrup - Kate Balsara; filled (raspberry cream) - Mary Jane Moffat; savoury (chicken supreme) Mary Mitchell; juniors, 12 and under (apple) - Faith Yohane; youth 13 to 18 (apple) - Jasmine Beamish; men’s open - Ian Hartford; seniors (apple) - Mary Mitchell; Warkworth Chapter - Jean Bryan; local ingredients - Lorraine Telford.

Pies are like fund-raising jewels Continued from page B1

“There are no bad pies, just some that are better than others,” Trent Hills Mayor Hector Macmillan said of the event where everybody, whether they make pies “for a hobby or just now and then … puts their best foot forward.” Co-emcee Northumberland-Quinte West MPP Rob Milligan, the high bidder for the Perfect Pie, noted the day’s entries raised the total number to more than 2,600 pies that have been entered since the contest was launched. This is “the jewel” among fund raisers in Warkworth, he said. Jean Peters and other members of Warkworth Chapter No. 279 Order of Eastern Star filled two long rows of tables with entries in the 34th annual Perfect Pie contest November 2 at Warkworth.

Adams is the founder of SarcasticGamer.com. “My daughter organized the event through the Baptist church because a lot of the youth meet there but they are coming here to John’s for it. This is the third year she has done it with her sister,â€? said her father the Reverend Mark Fearnall, the minister at St. John’s. But it is the ďŹ rst year that this young gamer has taken the event to other youth in the community inviting them to participate. Stuart Burnett, who is one of the leaders of the youth group which meets every Wednesday and includes youth from the local Baptist, Pentecostal and United churches, said, “Alana came to me with this idea, to all the youth leaders actually, about a year ago. I’ve always had fun playing video games playing with my family when growing up so I thought this was a great idea that they could take something as fun as video games and turn it into something that will help SickKids.â€?

In Havelock the event will be held at the Baptist Church from 9 a.m. until noon and in Norwood at St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church from 1 Personal Support Worker Police Foundations until 5 p.m. T h e Community Social Plan (CSP) has renewed its involvement with the Havelock Meet Your Needs Day as part of the expansion of the program, says Chris Kawalec, co-ordinator of the CSP and the Seniors Portfolio. “The CSP has Art and Design Foundation supported the Protection, Security and Investigation Buckhorn Meet Your Needs Day for the past few years,â€? Kawalec told HBM council Monday morning, and has “expanded to assist or initiateâ€? events in Millbrook, Norwood, Selwyn and Havelock.

Those who participated have been fund raising on their own for the past year. Since its inception, the ExtraLife marathons and donation drives have raised more than $3 million in funds for Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. Last year the event raised nearly $2 million worldwide. The youth involved here raised more than $150, joining the more than 32,000 gamers who participated worldwide. “I’ve been playing video games my whole life,� said Alana, age 17. “I really like just the fact that this

brings gamers together. We don’t have a good reputation because some people may think we are just lazy, playing video games all the time but this event helps us help by giving back,� she added. “And we have a pretty strong youth group in town, about 40 young people,� she explained. About a dozen gamers participated in the event which began last Friday night at 6 p.m. and continued through the night until 7 p.m. Saturday. “I really like playing video games and playing video games to help SickKids is probably one of the best ideas that anyone has ever

The same held true for Cameron Pidgeon. “Just like Caleb said, if playing video games and giving money helps the kids then I am up for it.� Ronald Power, whose favourite game is Mine Craft, was busy with his own gaming fun and he noted, “I am not tired at all.� Nearby gamer Rebecca Bond was sipping on a cup of coffee. “Coffee is a wonderful thing,� she said with a big grin.

TIFF releases in the country

Entertainment - Madoc - One does not have to travel far for quality cinema. Madoc Little Theatre has begun a third season screening films from the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF). As part of the tiff.Film Circuit <tiff.net/filmcircuit>, Madoc is one of 160 communities across Canada participating in TIFF’s “film outreach programme, bringing the best of Canadian and international films and artists” to Canadians. TIFF describes the process as an alternative model of grassroots distribution … building markets and audience for Canadian cinema. Movie buffs Dave and Marianne Handley like the idea of a small venue at the arts centre, where an average of twenty viewers can be expected. The Handleys said they go on “movie viewing trips” every so often, but with these showings they can walk from their home to take in monthly shows. Handley, who taught film studies, was also a film reviewer for local media; he said good film is hard to find. “Most movies these days are for a younger crowd who want fast action. The TIFF series offers a diverse selection, film with substance.”

Adam Kline a driving force for the project, regularly tweets reviews into the TIFF page. “We do our best to advertise with posters, in papers and on radio. Once people know the quality of these films they will hopefully seize the opportunity.” Four different movies were offered this past week as an opening “film festival” which started Friday evening and concluded Tuesday, November 5, with Jason Priestley’s Cas & Dylan, starring Richard Dreyfuss and Tatiana Maslany. It is currently getting a fourstar review. For more information you can phone Jeff Bitton, Parks and Recreation coordinator for Centre Hastings, at 613473-4030.

More women should be regularly screened for breast cancer: health unit News - Northumberland - The Haliburton, Kawartha, Pine Ridge District Health Unit is urging women to be regularly screened for breast cancer to ensure early detection, when treatment is most effective. “This is especially important when breast cancer is the most common cancer, affecting one in nine women in Canada in their lifetime,” says Marjorie Oke, a public health nurse. The health unit was prompted to issue a news release in response to new results from the Ontario Breast

Screening Report which showed only 61 per cent of women in the province, 50 to 74 years of age, were screened for breast cancer in 2010-2011, the latest year for which results were available in Ontario. (Earlier figures compiled by the Central East Local Health Integration Network in 2009 showed 64 per cent of Northumberland County’s 12,700 women who were eligible to screened did so. The national target is 70 per cent.) Health experts recommend women at average or high risk of breast cancer be regularly screened. In Ontario, average-risk women between the ages of 50 and 70 can have a mammogram done

every two years without a referral. Women 30 to 69 who are at higher risk, owing to genetic factors or a history of breast cancer in their family, can be referred to a priority testing program that includes an annual mammogram and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging). The Ontario Breast Screening Program is free to average-risk women 50 and older and they can book an appointment without a doctor’s referral at one of 162 OBSP sites, including Northumberland Hills Hospital in Cobourg and Campbellford Memorial Hospital which has had a mammography unit for 15 years. Fay Smith, the hospital’s manager of diagnostic imaging, said women choose not to be screened “because the fear of the unknown and … they’ve heard so many horror stories about how painful it is.”

To have a mammogram done, the breast is pulled forward and compressed between a plate holding the X-ray film and a clear plastic paddle. “We try to make it as comfortable for the patient as possible,” Smith said. “It’s still the best way to detect cancer.” The mammography unit operates from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The Ontario Breast Screening Program also provides notification to women when they are due for their next screening. To find out more about the program call 1-800-668-9304 or visit <www.ontario.ca/screenforlife>. Women can further reduce the risk of breast cancer by being watching out for changes to their breasts, such as a lump or dimpling, or to their nipples, including fluid leaking. Skin changes

Madoc to host second annual Nativity scene display Events - Last year, St. John’s Anglican Church in Madoc initiated its first Nativity display and the response was overwhelmingly positive. There were almost 60 scenes loaned from parishioners from six other churches in Madoc, Bonarlaw and Queensborough in addition to scenes loaned from members of St. John’s. The Nativity Scenes included the traditional porcelain, wood and ceramic figurines and also included banners and books of the Nativity. Sizes of the scenes were from a half-inch high to four feet high. St. John’s would like to challenge everyone to search for more nativity

scenes from friends, neighbours and relatives so this year’s display will be even larger. If you are unable to bring your scene(s) to St. John’s for the setup on Friday, November 29, from 1 to 4 p.m., arrangements can be made to have it picked up. The public will be invited to view the display and enjoy a hot drink and cookies on Saturday, November 30, and again on Sunday morning December 1. What a wonderful way to begin the Christmas season, with the real meaning of the season. To offer your Nativity scene for the occasion, or if you have any questions please call 613-472-3176 or 613-473-4124.

or redness that do not go away are another sign. “It’s important to report any of these changes to your health care provider,” Oke said. “While most of these changes are not cancerous, it is better to err on the side of caution and have them checked.” A healthy lifestyle that includes regular physical activity, healthy eating, healthy body weight, smokefree living, and minimal to no consumption of alcohol also helps to reduce a women’s risk of cancer and other chronic illnesses, Oke said.

Dr. Brian Ho One of the greatest barriers to proper oral care is fear of pain during dental visits. And by far the most common reason for anxiety is from the needle. All too often people avoid seeing their dentist because of this fear. When a child patient, or paediatric patient, shows up for a routine filling appointment, the hardest part of the entire procedure for a child is overcoming the fear of the needle. We, as dentists, have tried many things in the past to try to reduce this anxiety such as hiding the needle or “sugar-coating” certain words, etc. Often times these techniques work, allowing us to provide the necessary care for our young patients. However, what does a dental care provider do when these techniques are ineffective or the patient is not a child? The needle is not limited to only younger patients. Many adults fear dental visits that involve the administration of anesthetic. It is only natural, given that the potential for experiencing pain from an injection is always there. What results from this fear is neglect of oral care. Patients start to skip appointments and allow their mouths to deteriorate leading to toothaches, swelling and abscesses. However, thanks to modern technology, patients of all ages no longer need to fear dental visits because of a fear of the needle. Many offices have equipped themselves with an instrument known as the ‘Wand’. What is this Wand? The wand is a device that controls the flow of the numbing solution to be administered. It is often

this flowing of the numbing solution into tightly bound tissues like gums that makes injections uncomfortable. The makers of the wand designed the flow of the numbing solution to be controlled by a computer chip so that the injections flow through the tissues much slower and therefore much less painfully. In fact, most of the patients getting the wand do not realize they had just received a needle. In recent clinical studies, patients report 30% less pain when the wand was used on them. This is not to say that all dental injections done the traditional way cannot be done without pain. As long as the anesthetic is administered in a slow and controlled manner, this can be accomplished consistently. That being said, having a machine to control the flow of anesthetic can be more predictable and more consistent. The other advantage of the wand is its appearance. It does not look like a needle or a syringe at all. It is a modern-looking device almost resembling a magic wand. Because children and adults are psychologically trained to fear any objects that resemble a needle or syringe, having an instrument that strays from this makes a huge difference in keeping patients more calm and relaxed. This wand however is not the answer to all dental fears. It is simply a device that can help dentists to make the appointment a lot easier, more fun, and less fearful. It is just one of the ways today’s dentists are working hard to keep your smile last a lifetime.

Theatre prepares for Rapunzel’s hairy arrival By Richard Turtle

Entertainment - Stirling - There were plenty of laughs even before the scripts came out as cast and crew for the upcoming Stirling Festival Theatre production of Rapunzel: A hairy tale, arrived at the theatre this week. This year’s Christmas panto, again written and directed by Ken MacDougall, pokes a little fun at Rapunzel, the long-haired princess of fairy tale fame who is confined to a castle tower by a controlling and vindictive enchantress. And as has been the tradition with the seasonal favourite, the troupe plays fast and David Vanderlip shows cast and crew members drawings of the set planned loose with the familiar story to crefor the upcoming Christmas panto Rapunzel, scheduled to begin the ate a pair of versions, both naughty Stirling Festival Theatre on November 22. and family, with performances be-

ginning November 22 and running through December. The seven-member cast features several Stirling regulars including Debbie Collins, J.P Baldwin, Kristi Frank and Dean Hollin and also features Amir Haidar, Megan Poole and Arthur Right. With the show a perennial favourite, tickets have been on sale throughout the year and, explains House and Facilities Manager Kim Whiteman, interest always increases dramatically as opening night approaches. “It’s always fun,” she says of the 33-show run that ends on New Year’s Eve with a final pair of performances at 2 and 9:30 p.m. Described as “a holiday treat for

the family and a great way to introduce kids to the wonders of live theatre,” the show is also a treat for the performers as well, says actor J.P. Baldwin who, after a busy year onstage, will be playing the part of Dame Rose. “It’s like putting on a mask,” he says of the annual panto, “and you get to do things you wouldn’t normally do.” Following introductions and reintroductions on Monday morning, the cast gathered at tables for the first reading of the script. Managing Director David Vanderlip, who is taking on the duties of stage manager for the show, provided sketches of the set that will soon be constructed, before the reading began.

For many, the show is considered the highlight of the season and Vanderlip admits it is a busy time at the theatre. And, despite all the laughter, the cast and crew will be hard at work in the coming days. Hollin, who plays King Thistle in Rapunzel, is the featured performer in this weekend’s Billy Bishop Goes To War, described as a one-man tour de force and slated for Saturday night at 8 p.m. Full information about ticket pricing and show times for the panto and other shows is available by contacting the Stirling Festival Theatre box office at 613-395-2100 or visiting their web site at <stirlingfestivaltheatre.com>.

Production nearly twice as big as original By John Campbell

Entertainment - Campbellford Westben is restaging one of its most popular pieces, Little Match Girl Messiah, with almost twice as many singers as took part when it was performed for the ďŹ rst time in 2006. “It’s just one of our very favourite stories to do,â€? Westben artistic director Brian Finley said of his arts festival theatre’s original production that combines the Christmas choruses of Handel’s masterpiece, Messiah, with Hans Christian Andersen’s poignant tale of The Little Match Girl. The pianist-composer aligned his talents with local singer/songwriter Ken Tizzard to create a unique musical setting for the telling of an impoverished young girl’s fate and intertwine it with the birth of the child who gave Christmas its meaning. “It’s going to be a much bigger production than we did last time,â€? Finley said. “We had about 50 in the cast last time and about 90 this time. The more voices the merrier.â€? Western’s youth and teen choruses account for the larger number of singers taking part in the latest production, having grown to about 45 members, roughly the same size as the adult festival chorus. “It makes for a lot more rehearsal challenges but it’s just great to have more people involved in doing it,â€? Finley said. He’ll be performing as well, at the piano, along with his wife, Donna Bennett, a soprano, and Tizzard, on guitars

Members of Westben’s youth and teen choruses have been rehearsing weekly at Hillcrest Public School since early September on a new production of the arts festival’s original work, Little Match Westben marketing director Donna Bennett and her husband, Brian Finley, artistic director for the Girl Messiah.

and MIDI suite. “One of the best parts of [the production] is the way it can introduce young people to Messiah,â€? Finley said. It’s “such a great piece [and] speaks to Christmas so much.â€? It’s also “complicated,â€? he said, and “too difďŹ cult for young voices to singâ€? but, with Little Match Girl Messiah, it enables them “to be surrounded by the music, to be aware of it, to be in it, [which] is really the thrill.â€? The characters in the story of the Little Match Girl that are brought to life in the production—Goose, Frying Pan, Knife, Fork, Kettle, Ironsides, Street Singers, and Little Matches—are portrayed by youth and teen chorus members, with Olivia Rapos and Beatrice

Muldoon sharing turns in the title role. “There’s lots to learn but these guys learn fast,â€? Finley said. The two-hour rehearsals once a week at Hillcrest Public School began after Labour Day and now “it’s a mad dash to get it ready by the middle of November,â€? Finley joked. It’s “very much a concert presentation because we have to do it in three different venuesâ€?—Trinity St. Andrew’s United Church, Brighton, 2 p.m., November 23; Norwood United Church, Norwood, 3 p.m., November 24; The Westben Barn, 1 p.m., November 30, and 3 p.m., December 1.

Events - Quinte West - The Holiday Train will be here on November 28, at 2:45 p.m. at the rail crossing on RCAF Road, south side. Since the Holiday Train program was first launched in 1999, it has raised $7.4 million and three million pounds of food for local communities. Musicians travelling aboard the trains will play more than 150 free concerts from their boxcar stage. CP asks that attendees bring a non-perishable food or cash donation, and all donations stay with the food shelf in the community where they’re donated. Items like infant formula, canned meats, and spaghetti sauce are in particular demand for the millions of North Americans who turn to food banks each month. Each Holiday Train consists of 14 brightly decorated railcars, including a modified boxcar that has been turned into a travelling stage for performers. For the 15th year, CP’s elves have updated the thousands of LED lights that adorn the sides of both trains with new holiday designs. Holiday Train embarks on its threeweek journey on November 26 from Beaconsfield, Quebec, finishing up in Port Coquitlam, BC, on December 16. The Canadian train features Melanie Doane with special guests Doc Walker, Brothers Dube, Crystal Shawanda, Jim Cuddy, and Matt Dusk. For additional information, photos, a route map, and downloadable pictures of the two trains, visit: <www.cpr.ca>. Supporters can also join the Holiday Train on Facebook and follow the two trains on Twitter @CPHolidaytrain #CPHolidayTrain.

Northumberland to host third annual music competition Events - Port Hope - The Northumberland Hills Music Festival will launch its third annual music competition March 31 to April 4, 2014, at Port Hope United Church. The festival provides an opportunity for music students to showcase their talents at a close-to-home, adjudicated competition without having to travel to Oshawa, Peterborough or Toronto festivals. Co-founded by three local music teachers, Garden Hill’s Dianne Pendock, Cobourg’s Helen Torney and Carolyn Hyma, the festival offers both competitive and non-competitive performance opportunities in primary, secondary and senior grade divisions, for music students of all ages. Currently open to piano and string students, the festival hopes to add winds, as well as school choirs and bands, as it grows. Winners of the competition will be showcased at a “Stars of the Festival” concert a week following the festival on April 12. Applications for the festival will be accepted by email from January 6 to February 15 inclusive, with registration forms and further details available at <www.northumberlandhillsmusicfestival. com>.

St. Theresa Titans are COSSA champions we’re going to OFSAA for the first time,” Kennelly said, with the cheers of teammates echoing in the background. “It’s crazy, it’s unbelievable.” For most soccer players, some time off between games is almost expected, but all the teams in the COSSA championships Thursday faced a daunting task: win their semifinal matchup, and then less than a hour later, take to the field again to battle it out for the COSSA crown. For St. Theresa, this meant overcoming a tough St. Mary’s side that

By Steve Jessel

Sports - Belleville - The St. Theresa’s Titans are boys senior soccer COSSA champions for the first time ever, claiming the title in a thrilling shootout over Lindsay Collegiate and Vocational Institute on Thursday in Belleville. Goaltender Calum Kennelly posted back-to-back shutouts in the final and semifinal matches, and made the final save in the shootout in the championship game to secure the victory for the Titans. “It’s our first time winning COSSA, and it’s just awesome;

pushed the Titans to the limit in overtime and a shootout, while in the other semi-final Lindsay had to overcome Bayside 3 - 2. That left both teams looking tired mentally and physically for the championship match, and they both struggled to come up with offensive opportunities for much of the game. Bolstered by a smattering of hometown fans, the Titans eventually started to come out ahead in terms of possession, but had trouble keeping their shots on target. After 80 minutes of regulation and an additional 20 minutes of extra time, neither team was able to break through, and for the second game in a row the Titans headed to a shootout. That’s where Kennelly came up huge in the game’s biggest mo-

ments, helping push the Titans to the championship, 3 - 2 in the shootout. “It feels good; it’s the first time in St. Theresa history so I’m very proud,” said coach David McGillen. “I’m very happy for the guys; they worked hard and played well, and they’re champions.” In the junior soccer COSSA finals, also taking place Thursday, Crestwood Secondary School, of Peterborough, snapped the Nicholson Catholic College Crusaders’ perfect two-year run with a 5 - 1 victory in the championship match. Nicholson had squeaked by Cobourg West in a shootout in the first semi-final, but couldn’t overcome Crestwood, who advanced to the final after a 4 - 0 St. Theresa’s Dane Hoard catches some air chasing after a loose ball in the COSSA finals Thursday. win over Moira.

LIFESTYLES

North of Seven show last one until spring News - Havelock - The North of Seven artisans capped a successful year with their annual preChristmas show and exhibition at the Stone Hall east of Havelock over the weekend. The group will put its exhibitions into hibernation for the winter but will continue to meet twice weekly in Havelock and Hastings where they sharpen skills, inspire each other and forge strong social bonds. “You learn from the people in the class; they’re such a good bunch and they’re so kind. They’re a nice group of people,” says North of Seven co-ordinator Judy Moretton. Dania Madera-Lerman leads the class in Havelock while Barb Philp teaches the classes in Hastings. Moretton makes a point of attending both. “I like it so much that I’m there. You learn different things from different teachers. They’re totally different,” she says. The Stone Hall show included ten artisans which is the maximum and Moretton says she had to turn down five prospective exhibitors. “This seems to be the most popular for artists and I hate to turn them down,” she said. That means she will be looking for a larger space for the North of Seven indoor shows. “This is the last show of the year so we have time to plan for spring,” she said. Christina Hebor of Havelock shows off some of the knitted wear she was selling at the North of Seven artisans show at the historic Stone Hall Moretton says the group was “thrilled” to over the weekend. Photo: Bill Freeman learn that township Councillor Larry Ellis had attempted to nominate the group for a provincial

arts award. “I was thrilled that the township thought of us. You don’t even know that the township is aware of what we’re up to until you get that call.” She also fielded three calls from new artists interested in joining the group. “That kind of got me going again, new blood into the group. People appreciate that we’re here.”

Hazardous dishwashers

News - Campbellford - Trent Hills Fire Chief Tim Blake warns the public about the danger of a fire that can be caused by some dishwashers. The warning is being passed on from the Office of the Fire Marshal and Emergency Management (OFMEM) which is urging families to check the serial numbers of their dishwashers. This comes after a recent fire investigation after a Whitchurch Stouffville woman was seriously injured in a fire. The investigation revealed the cause was electrical failure within the dishwasher. These dishwashers can start a fire and those with affected dishwashers should stop using them immediately and contact the distributor. The original fire hazard recall was distributed by

Maytag, Health Canada and the Electrical Safety Authority. It includes Maytag, Amana, JennAir, Admiral, Magic Chef, Performa by Maytag and Crosley brand dishwashers with plastic tubs and certain serial numbers. These dishwashers were manufactured with black, bisque, white, silver and stainless steel front panels. The brand name is printed on the front of the dishwasher. The model and serial numbers are printed on a label located inside the plastic tub on a tag near the left side of the door opening. For information about the recalls and the serial numbers, go to: <https:// repair.maytag.com/prjjck10/ default.jsp?siteCd=RCU_EN_ CA&id=R173BV or call Maytag at (800) 544-5513>.

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! Terry Bald has great memories of being a young drummer in a band developing his craft. But as someone who has always looked to grow and learn, he made the choice years ago to return to school to pursue knowledge in other passions. That desire to be constantly absorbing new

information and be willing to take calculated risks is what makes Terry such an engaging entrepreneur today. “From my education in Architecture to working in structural steel and automotive design, I use so much of the knowledge I have collected over the years.” Terry applied for the Ontario Self-Employment Benefit Program (OSEB) administered by Trenval Business Development Corporation for the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU). Applicants for this program are often pursuing information on how to turn a hobby or passion into a business. Prior life skills and experience play a positive role in the OSEB acceptance process. And music and sound, a

constant in Terry’s life, became front and centre again. “There isn’t anything that I have learned over the last 30

up training. He had prepared a business plan outlining his online retail store that would sell drum parts and components. He insisted the website be done right and his perseverance paid off - www.candrum.ca is a work of art. Product photographs are clear, descriptions detailed, he offers tutorials and helpful links – it’s a website musicians can get happily lost in. Terry also builds customized components and cites building a drum kit for a customer as one of his greatest moments in business. “He was so happy with how it turned out that he shelved his other drums and played these exclusively. The best part was seeing them being played during Rock for Relief.” Terry marketed his site and his client base is now global and his reputation is growing. He

Business in the audio/sound division of his company is also booming. Terry provides ‘live sound’ for events ranging from “two speakers on a stick to full concert productions.” He installs public address systems, provides equipment and set up for any sized event and runs the audio board.

More needs to be done to treat victims of fractures By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - Osteoporosis is “a big deal,” affecting almost two million Canadians and costing the country’s health-care system $6.9 billion a year, participants in a community health and falls prevention program heard last week. But it’s not on the radar the same way that heart disease is, with not enough being done to help patients who have suffered a fracture after they leave the hospital, geriatrics expert Dr. Jennifer Ingram said in the last presentation held at Island Park Retirement Community October 30 as part of its five-week Island Park Retirement Community concluded its BonesBeStrong wellness series with geriatrics expert Dr. Jen- wellness series. nifer Ingram talking about osteoporosis, falls and fractures. Photo: John Campbell She cited figures that showed just 25 per cent of 500 patients of all ages who received care for fractures at Peterborough Regional Health Centre in 2008 “were on treatment” after leaving the hospital.

it should be,” Ingram said. “The numbers tell us that a third of women and a fifth of men will suffer a fracture from osteoporosis within their lifetime, so it’s a big deal,” Ingram said. Fractures increase the risk of hospitalization, institutionalization, decreased quality of life, fear of falling, isolation, depression, and, at worst, death. Seven per cent of people who fracture their hips die within 30 days of being hospitalized, and the figure soars to 40 per cent among men and 30 per cent among women within a year. Other statistics included in her slide presentation painted a grim picture: • More than 80 per cent of all fractures in Canada after age 50 are caused by osteoporosis and one in four women who suffer a fracture will experience another one within a year. • Hip fractures decrease a person’s life expectancy by six years, and 40 per cent do not return to

their prior level of functioning. • Thirty per cent of seniors fall each year and one-quarter of the falls result in serious injury. “Osteoporosis comes in many different shapes and forms,” and, contrary to popular belief, it can develop in teenagers, Ingram said. Peak bone mass is achieved by the time a person is between 20 and 30 years of age, so it’s important that children drink milk, eat protein and “really work hard to develop their bones.” Osteoporosis Canada says the “skeletal disorder [is] characterized by a compromised bone strength predisposing a person to an increased risk of fracture.” Females begin losing bone mass after menopause, “and as a result we begin to see fractures.” Bone loss in men “is a more gradual thing but it is not by any means immaterial” as many men do develop osteoporosis, Ingram said, in part because the testosterone that helps keeps their bones healthy “falls off with age.” Ingram said “many people after they have a hip fracture don’t do as well [as might be predicted] and often it’s the turning point in someone not being able to go back to [their home].” “There is a definite genetic predisposition to osteoporosis,” particularly in its severe form, Ingram said. A person who suffers a fracture is “at high risk” of having another. “Pain is a big issue with all of these fractures.” Falls can be prevented but it depends “on how hard you want to work at it,” she said. Strengthening your muscles, improving your co-ordination, and removing things around the house that could cause falls are key steps. Ingram said exercise is “absolutely essential” to build muscle and bone, and she urged everyone to “walk, walk, walk, walk, and do it as rigorously and as committedly as you can,” especially as part of a group to “end the social isolation.” Ingram offered warnings about various medications that can increase the risk of falls, including antihistamines and drugs taken to treat hypertension, anxiety or depression. Although they have a role to play in maintaining a person’s health, “there are people who are on these drugs who should not be,” she said.

ing songs of Canada and including several written in support of Canadian troops. Also included are Pipes and Drums and a Children’s Chorus.

New members are always welcome, Wright says of the group that currently contains about 25 members, with about 20 of those expected to perform on Novem-

ber 16, with no age restrictions or formal musical training required. Further information about the chorus, or to purchase tickets, contact 613-398-7573.

Trent Port photo mosaic mural unveiling

News - Quinte West - After one year of collecting photographs, the Trent Port Historical Society is pleased to announce the unveiling of the new photo mosaic mural. The photo mosaic mural, measuring 64 feet by 12 feet , will be on the east wall of the Community Policing building, 29 Dundas Street West. As you approach the wall

from the end of the Veteran’s Skyway bridge, the scene will include a giant movie screen, a Harvard airplane, the iconic water tower at 8 Wing Trenton and a map of Trenton. But walk up close to the wall and the images you see are more than 3,500 photographs submitted by citizens of Quinte West and the surrounding area. The history of

Quinte West has been captured in this mural, a new concept in outdoor art. The unveiling will take place in front of Captain George’s restaurant on November 23, 2013, at 11 a.m. Everyone is invited to view the mural and enjoy refreshments afterwards (to 1 p.m.) at Trenton Town Hall - 1861, 55 King Street.

Entertainment - Stirling - For the Mill Pond Chorus, a Stirling-based community choir, it’s all about sharing the love of song. The group of about two dozen people, from a variety of backgrounds, meet weekly for practice in preparation for one or two concert performances a year, explains member and spokesperson Helen Wright, where the music often celebrates the community. This year, the Mill Pond Chorus will be performing in Stirling on November 16 and are encouraging the public to come to the concert held in support of local members of the military. In the past, Wright says, Christmas concerts have been a regular seasonal outlet for the singers, “but this one is a bit different.â€? The upcoming show, she says, was undertaken as a way for the members of the Mill Pond Chorus to give back to the community and at the same time recognize the sacriďŹ ces made by the members of the Canadian Military in the course of their duty in order to maintain the freedom which we enjoy today in Canada. Remembering - A Remembrance Day Tribute will be performed at St. Paul’s United Church beginning at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $12 at the door or are available from chorus members. All proceeds from the event will go to the Trenton Military Family Resource Centre. Wright explains that the centre provides services and resources that support the well-being of military families serving at 8 Wing/CFB Trenton. Military families include all military, regular force or reservist, their families, their parents
