“Save Our Casino” Rally on July 30 EMC Events - Less than week to go until The Township of Leeds and the Thousand Islands and the Town of Gananoque hold their “Save Our Casino” Rally to reinforce the message to casino investors that the two municipalities are welcoming communities and support the current casino location as the logical business and

community choice for Casino Thousand Islands. The rally will be held on Tuesday, July 30 from 4 to 6 p.m., at the Lou Jeffries Recreational Centre in Gananoque. Local dignitaries, including Mayor Frank Kinsella, Mayor Erika Demchuk, MPP Steve Clark and MP Gord Brown will be in atten-

dance and will address the audience. The 1000 Islands Accommodations Partners will be speaking at the event, as well as several organizations that have received grants through municipal casino revenues. To show community support, the event will include local entertainment, activities for children and free

hotdogs and drinks, courtesy of the 1000 Islands Accommodations Partners. There will also be a draw for a helicopter ride for two, courtesy of Kouri’s Kopters, who will also be offering rides at the rally, for a fee. Please come out and show your support. Bring your signs, your voice and your horns.

Nothing can sink second annual GDHS Fur Ball By LORRAINE PAYETTE

EMC Entertainment - It looked like a job for Noah’s ark on July 19 when the skies opened over Rockport and the winds came up. But a severe thunderstorm wasn’t about to put the Gananoque and District Humane Society’s (GDHS) second annual Fur Ball aground. “I came here to support the animals, and to have a good time,” said Irene Van Oyen, dressed stunningly as a tuxedo cat. And that’s exactly what everyone did. From tiny tigers to raccoons, Puss in Boots to Fire Cats, no one was going to let a little bad weather stand in their way. In spite of the storm, in spite of the lack of music due to a lack of power, in spite of having to stay inside a restaurant instead of out on the water, many guests stayed on and enjoyed themselves. “We’re going to try it again,” said Arlene Massey of GDHS. “The Rockport Boat Line has offered us another boat for Aug. 30 at 6 p.m., and we’re seeing if R Banned will be available to come out and play. We will be contacting as many people as we can who either bought tickets and stayed, to thank them for their great support and offer them the new cruise.” “We got a lemon in terms of weather but we want to thank all of our supporters and give them the good time that we promised, and they deserved.” In spite of everything,

those in attendance had a wonderful time, watching the water and getting to know each other better. A formal announcement will be made at a later date. Various events are held in addition to the Fur Ball, including an adopt-a-thon where they try to find homes for mature animals, the annual fall dinner which is a major fundraising event, Cookies-Crafts-and-Critters, and various special events. Demand for services is up, especially after 22 kittens were left on their doorstep earlier this year, and that makes fundraising all the more important. “We can’t fight Mother Nature, but we can make sure everyone has a good time,” said Massey. “We’ll be sure to let everyone know all the details for Aug. 30.” With new openings a definite possibility, please contact the shelter and see what is available. Tickets sell for $25 each, and may be purchased through the event coordinator, Arlene Massey at 613-923-1953 or arlene@arlenemassey.com, Cornwall’s Pub in Rockport at 613-659-2338 or at the Shelter. Please drop in at 85 Hwy 32, Gananoque, ON K7G 2V3 between 9 a.m. and noon, Monday - Saturday, or call 613-382-1512.

For more on the Shelter itself and how you can help, please go to http:// www.ganhumanesociety. ca/ or visit their Facebook page.

Tigers, Emkily Vasbinder and Ella Beaudry, both almost 8, enjoyed the party at the GDHS second annual Fur Ball, held in Rockport on July 19. A severe storm had kept the cruise boat in port and knocked out electricity, but revellers found cause to celebrate anyway.

EMC Editorial – Just a couple of weeks into summer break and many families are planning or about to embark on their vacation getaway. Whether sticking close to home or travelling across the country (or the world), there are many challenges to vacationing with the little ones. Preparation is key. Map out a schedule and stick to it. By doing this, children will thrive in their routine. Plan your child’s nap time during the commute to your destination. Make sure to pack light, bringing only the essentials with you. Being laden with luggage while trying to pass through airport security with two cranky children in tow is no one’s idea of paradise. Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) recommends doing some research if you’re venturing across the border. Have appropriate identification on hand, receipts and documentation, and be sure to read the rules on what products (alcohol, tobacco) can be brought back into the country. Certain goods such as plants, weapons and animal products are also prohibited. Plan your own vacation and try to avoid popular tourist destinations. Most kids of a young age aren’t apt to remember touring Times Square or taking a trip to Paris to see the Eiffel tower. Save those types of vacations for when they’re a bit older and can appreciate seeing the sights. Instead, opt for activities such as camping, amusement parks or shorter road trips. This gives children a chance to relax with a hike or a swim and have some down time when they (and parents) need it. Visit the CBSA website (www.cbsa.gc.ca) to become versed on border regulations.

Father’s patience runs out for Sunday afternoon picnic adventure EMC Lifestyle - All Mother needed for an excuse to have a picnic was a sunny and hot Sunday afternoon. After church, of course. Father, who thought the whole idea was nonsense, when you could spend the afternoon, having a little nap in the grape arbour. “That once-a -year church picnic is enough for me,” he lamented. Father’s resting in the summer often moved him from the rocking chair in the kitchen with his feet on the oven door of the Findlay Oval, to the grape arbour, where an old lawn chair and the two-seater swing sat in the cool haven of the overhanging grape leaves. But of course, as for the Sunday picnic, Mother overruled and we five children were thrilled beyond belief... we would be spending the afternoon on the banks of the Bonnechere. It was a hefty walk to get to the river, overloaded as we were with baskets of lunch, bats and balls, our swim suits and towels, Mother’s newspapers, scrap books and diaries, and always I had to take at least one doll with me too. As long as Father had his pipe and a

good supply of tobacco that was about all he was interested in lugging down to the Bonnechere. The cook stove would be allowed to go out on Saturday night. That meant a cold breakfast, which further annoyed Father, who didn’t consider any meal worth pulling a chair up to the table for, unless it included meat and potatoes as part of the menu. But Mother let the stove die down because that meant a nice cool kitchen when we got back from our picnic on Sunday, a rare treat from a stove that blasted out blistering heat waves 24 hours a day every other day of the week. As soon as we got back from church, and while the boys and Father tended to the last minute chores at the barn, AuVice President & Regional Publisher Mike Mount mmount@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 104 Regional General Manager Peter O’Leary poleary@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 112 Group Publisher Duncan Weir dweir@perfprint.ca 613-283-3182, ext. 164 Managing Editor Ryland Coyne

drey and Mother would haul out of the ice box bowls of food that had been prepared the night before. This meant hard boiled eggs, mashed fine, sliced cold pork and roast beef, cucumbers, lettuce and tomatoes, and of course, a slab cake smothered in brown-sugar icing. It didn’t take long for thick sandwiches, sliced vegetables and a huge sealer of iced tea to be ready to pack into 11 quart baskets, all wrapped in an ample supply of clean flour bag tea towels. We had enough food to feed half of Renfrew County! We always went to the same spot on the Bonnechere. This was where the old maple tree had long since fallen across the narrowest part of the river, and where there was a wide grassy bank and more trees. My sister Audrey spread out two blankets and covered the little wagon with another to keep the lunch as cold as possible. Wearing short pants for bathing suits, my brothers were in the water almost as soon as we hit the river, Mother had propped herself against a tree with her books and papers spread around her, Au-

drey and I hid behind a tree and stripped off our clothes and got into two suits Aunt Freda had sent us from Chicago. They were scratchy, made of pure wool, and as soon as they were wet, went as hard as cement, but they were all we had. Father walked around with his pipe hanging out of his mouth, not looking at all pleased. He asked Mother when she planned on taking out the lunch, lamenting that what he had for breakfast couldn’t really be called a decent meal. Mother said lunch was a long way off, and he might as well settle down and have a little nap. The afternoon wore on. Emerson said he didn’t care if we ever went back home. The three boys had water fights, tried to catch fish with a makeshift pole, and jumped off the fallen tree to see who could land the farthest. Audrey was reading her books gotten from the Renfrew Library and I was playing with my doll, pretending she was a brand new baby and this was her first outing on a picnic. Well, Father never did settle down for

a nap. He walked the shoreline, he lit and relit his pipe, and when he finally sat down with his back against a tree, he never took his eyes off the blanket covering the lunch. “Think I’ll head back to the barns to check on that cow that didn’t look too good this morning,” he said. Even though we had yet to eat the lunch, I knew Father wouldn’t be back. And I knew too, the cow had little to do with it. When the sun was heading for the west, and we had eaten the lunch, the boys had dried off, and everything was packed onto the little red wagon, Father still hadn’t come back. Mother assured me he would be just fine. “He just doesn’t like picnics,” she said. We gathered up our belongings and started for home. I saw it before anyone else. There was smoke coming out of the chimney over our house! Mother just let out a long and laboured sigh when I pointed it out to her. We opened the kitchen door to blazing heat, and there was Father sitting at the old pine table. “Well, so much for a nice cool kitchen,” was all Mother said. • Advertising rates and terms and conditions are according to the rate card in effect at time advertising published. • The advertiser agrees that the publisher shall not be liable for damages arising out of errors in advertisements beyond the amount charged for the space actually occupied by that portion of the advertisement in which the error occurred, whether such error is due to negligence of its servants or otherwise... and there shall be no liability for non-insertion of any advertisement beyond the amount charged for such advertisement. • The advertiser agrees that the copyright of all advertisements prepared by the Publisher be vested in the Publisher and that those advertisements cannot be reproduced without the permission of the Publisher. • The Publisher reserves the right to edit, revise or reject any advertisement.

Old Town Hall in Delta celebrates renovations with grand opening/ribbon cutting ceremony By MARLA DOWDALL mdowdall@perfprint.ca

EMC News – A grand opening and ribbon cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the newly renovated Old Town Hall in Delta, July 19. The bright hall was decorated for the occasion and attracted many from the community to see the Old Town Hall in its renovated glory. The Ontario Trillium Foundation was on hand as well to mark its $86,400 contribution to the project. Paul George, curator for the Delta Mill Society noted the Old Town Hall had been used for a variety of events throughout the years, and “residents reminisce when they come here.� The hall held dances, New Year’s levees, and most recently a wedding and poetry reading. Trillium funding The renovations and subsequently funding from the Trillium Foundation went towards putting a lift in to ensure the Old Town Hall is accessible, ensuring the front door and washrooms were accessible, renovating

the kitchen, hall itself and redoing the front porch. Member of Provincial Parliament for Leeds Grenville Steve Clark noted, “This part of Leeds and Grenville has a tremendous history.� Betsy Heatley, OTF representative was amazed at, “such evidence how a little bit of money can go a long way.� She praised the work done on the hall, calling it “really terrific.� Master of ceremonies Dann Michols, vice president Delta Mill Society, noted how hard everyone had worked on the project and how terrific the hall turned out. The Old Stone Mill National Historic Site and the Old Town Hall are “owned and operated by the nonprofit organization, The Delta Mill Society,� according to the Mill website, http:// www.deltamill.org. “The Old Stone Mill National Historic Site is the only stone gristmill in Canada designated a National Historic Site. Built in 1810, “ according to the Old Stone Mill Facebook page.

Maitland Garden of Hope offers open house this weekend By MARLA DOWDALL mdowdall@perfprint.ca EMC Lifestyle - From the Healing Garden to the Friendship Garden, Spring Garden, Idea Garden and Magnolia Island there are but a few of the special areas in the Maitland Garden of Hope. Walking into the private 1.5 acre garden, colours are abundant, bright pinks, yellows, rich and bright. Open to the public for three years, it was perhaps Colleen O’Connell and David Cybulski’s wedding that served as the event which planted the seed for this garden to grow - perhaps quite literally. A labour of love - when the couple was married five years ago, they asked wedding guests to not bring gifts - but instead to bring perennials - thus the Friendship Garden was born. The two started out thinking it was just about the flowers, but realized very quickly it was about so much more, the flora, fauna, the butterflies, the birds and the bees, quite literally. “When people come here they want an experience,� David explained. “They want a feeling.� He noted often people leave feeling inspired, while others come to relax in areas such as the Zen Garden, the Orchid Walk, the Butterfly Garden, to see the registered Monarch Butterfly Waystation, or the bee hives. And there are many opportunities for both a feeling and an experience, often seen are deer, birds, tree toads. Seeing a hummingbird feed, butterflies fluttering around and catching a glimpse out the corner of your eye of a red squirrel grabbing food from a bird feeder are commonplace. A picnic area is also available. And it isn’t just a visual treat, the Fragrance Garden, also features scents such

EMC News – Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) remind seniors and vulnerable citizens that they are primary targets for scammers who prey upon their emotions and rob them of their money. Members of the OPP Anti-Rackets Branch say the “emergency scam” has been around for many years but it continues to reach across Ontario. The fact that seniors are hesitant to say ‘no’ or to hang up on someone on the phone makes them easy targets for criminals to access substantial sums of money. “Fraud in all of its forms costs Canadians extraordinary amounts of money. Increasing awareness is the first step toward reducing its devastating impact. Reporting the scam then allows police an opportunity to warn other people and minimize the chances of the scam spreading further,” said Deputy Commissioner Scott Tod, OPP Investigations and Organized Crime. In 2012, the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre received 2,020 complaints of criminals using the “emergency scam” – sometimes referred to as the “grand-

parent scam” – in Canada. Of those, 506 people were identified as victims who reported a loss of more than $1.4 million. Police believe there are many more victims, but they are reluctant to report the crime, either out of embarrassment or not knowing how. In a typical “emergency scam”, the victim receives a phone call or email from someone claiming to be a friend or relative, like a grandchild, in distress. The caller or emailer goes on to indicate that they are in some kind of trouble, such as being in a car crash, they need money for bail, or they are having trouble returning from a foreign country. The fraudster specifically asks that the victims do not tell other relatives. You may get a call from two people, one pretending to be your grandchild and the other pretending to be either a police officer or a lawyer. Your “grandchild” asks questions during the call, getting victims to volunteer personal information. Victims (often seniors) generally don’t verify the story until after their money has been sent through a wire transfer service or they have access to personal banking or credit card information to criminals. To guard against becoming a victim, police advise you to first check with another family member or trusted friend to verify the information before sending money or providing credit card information by phone or e-mail. It is vitally important that the incident be reported every time it occurs, to allow police to investigate and find the perpetrators. “Scammers are counting on the fact that you will want to act quickly to help your loved ones in an emergency. Never send money to anyone you don’t know and trust. Verify the person’s identity before you take any steps to help,” said Inspector Paul Beesley, OPP Anti-Rackets Branch. If you or someone you know may have been the victim of an “emergency scam”, contact your local police service or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).

Emerging artists supported through foundation donation EMC Entertainment - Last Wednesday night, the St. Lawrence Shakespeare Festival opened its production of Hamlet, to great acclaim. Despite a quick five minute burst of rain, the audience was captivated by the story and gave the performance a standing ovation. One audience member described the show as “Superb… crystal clear. From the moment it started to the end, it flew by, I wanted more!” The evening was also special for the Festival, because RBC’s local Branch Manager Marianne Sears and her staff were on hand to present a cheque from the RBC Foundation for $2,500, to support the Revelers Program. This program enables three emerging artists to become members of the mainstage company for 10 weeks and undergo additional training during that time, helping them to learn about their craft within a professional setting. A spokesperson for the RBC Founda-

tion said: “We believe in the power of art to enrich our lives and enhance our communities. In 2011, we invested $2.4 million in grants to programs that support emerging artists. The RBC Emerging Artists Project consists of sponsorships and donations with organizations whose programs bridge the gap from academic excellence to professional careers in all forms of art. We are thrilled to be able to support the St. Lawrence Shakespeare Festival once again.” The St. Lawrence Shakespeare Festival’s 2013 Season continues until Aug. 17. Featuring Hamlet alongside their brand new hit comedy, Maid for a Musket and Sunday Series concerts each week. Season passes are still on sale, enabling audience members to see all four Sunday Series events plus the two mainstage shows as many times as they like, for only $95 – saving at least $19. Call 613-925-5788 or book online at www.stlawrenceshakespeare.ca.

Upper Canada Family Health Team has a new garden EMC Lifestyle - The Upper Canada Family Health Team is comprised of 16 family physicians, four Nurse Practitioners, Social Workers, Registered Nurses, a Registered Dietitian and allied staff. With over 23,000 patients rostered to their team, health promotion and education is an ongoing commitment. Although the physicians and NP’s work in different sites throughout Brockville, the program offices are situated at 5 Home St., where patients come to receive counseling, support and education for their needs such as Diabetes, Nutrition, Smoking Cessation, Cardiovascular health, Gerontology and Mental Health Counseling. Nutritional and lifestyle education plays a major part in health promotion, and through individual appointments and/or group education, healthy eating plays a major part in the message to patients. In an effort to put words into action, the team knew that being able to demonstrate how delicious and healthy fresh local produce can be, they devised a plan to plant a community garden to share with the patients. With limited space, a viable plan required creative thinking, resulting in straw bale gardening. Straw bale gardening is a relatively unknown method of container gardening in which the bales are both container and planting media. Bales are prepared several weeks prior to planting time by the daily addition of rich fertilizer and watering, resulting in the decomposition of the interior of the bale, which then becomes the “soil� for the young plants and seeds.

Enthusiasm spread throughout the team, and many contributed garden supplies, plants and seeds, their own time after hours and weekends to water and care for the garden, and ongoing encouragement and support from the physicians and allied staff. Tomatoes, beans, peas, cabbage, carrots, peppers, radishes, lettuce, cucumbers and herbs were planted into seven rows of five bales each. Rewards soon paid off. From the beginning, curious onlookers stopped to ask questions about the straw bales, amazed how quickly the plants were growing and in the process, learned the valuable lessons a produce garden can provide. Even though the garden is now just beginning to produce vegetables, it has provided the opportunity for patients to discover the delicious taste of a sunwarmed cherry tomato, crisp lettuce, the sweetness of peas or beans and bring home the bounty to share with family and friends. Many are pleasantly surprised how different the taste is from store-bought processed foods, realizing how easy, inexpensive and delicious it can be to make healthy eating a daily habit. Each day the Dietitian hands out “bouquets� of curly lettuce, herbs and other assorted treats to her patients, or the Social Worker may bring fresh salad ingredients to her home-bound client that she is visiting. The straw bale garden has not only provided a chance for team members to reinforce messages for a healthy lifestyle through action, but it has also fostered a sense of community.

BMO recommends prospective buyers stress-test their mortgage at a higher interest rate to ensure sustained mortgage affordability EMC business - According to BMO Senior Economist Robert Kavcic, the latest data from the Canadian Real Estate Association show that the Canadian housing market remains balanced and well-behaved. Existing home sales rose for the fourth month in a row in June, posting a 3.3 per cent seasonally adjusted gain from the prior month and down just 0.6 per cent from the readings of a year ago “These figures represent another body blow to the Canadian housing

bears,” said Kavcic. “The June report leaves the second-quarter tally at an impressive 6.4 per cent above the previous quarter - the strongest performance since 2010. In fact, sales are now back to levels seen before the latest round of mortgage rule tightening took effect in early July, helped by very low mortgage rates through much of the spring.” Kavcic noted that the recent rise in fiveyear fixed rates - now in the neighbourhood of 3.5 per cent versus sub-3 per cent just over a month ago - might have

actually stoked sales activity in June, with buyers making their move before their lower rate contracts expired. “That could set the stage for another cooling off period this summer. At any rate, measures of market balance are clearly tightening, with the sales-to-new listings ratio again slightly above historical norms and the months’ supply down for the third time in the past four months.” Regionally, most markets have tightened up in recent months, including an impressive turnabout in Vancouver - sales are now 52 per cent of new listings, up from a low of 36.6 per cent late last year. Toronto is firmly balanced, while Calgary is again seeing a sellers’ market. Kavcic also said that firmer sales and lower inventories have all but erased any threat of an imminent melt in prices. “Average prices were 4.8 per cent above year-ago levels in June, with fully 80 per cent of the major markets surveyed reporting prices up from last year. Vancouver and Regina are both still seeing prices below year-ago levels

Refresh your living space this summer and add significant value to your home EMC Lifestyle - Summer can be a great time to update your home by making simple changes around the house. By replacing smaller-ticket items, such as doorknobs, light fixtures, faucets and drawer pulls, you can make a big impact at a relatively low cost. “Minor updates and repairs around the home can make a major impact without breaking the bank,” said Laura Parsons, Mortgage Expert, BMO Bank of Montreal. “Small investments can refresh your living space for summer and add signifi-

cant value to a home, which can deliver a big return down the road when you sell.” BMO offers a number of products and services that can help Canadians get more out of every dollar they spend this summer.

Children do need special attention on moving day

R0012224633/0725

EMC Lifestyle – The Canadian Association of Movers (CAM) advises parents to help them prepare children for the family’s move. Involving children in the move will help to lessen everyone’s stress. The summer is the period of peak demand for moving companies. Families move for a great variety of reasons and generally believe that this is the best time to relocate to avoid disrupting their children’s education. Moving can be a major upheaval for children. They may feel anxious about separation from friends, schools and neighbourhoods. It’s up to parents to prepare them for moving day, to help reduce their stress and yours. Involving children in the move can help to calm their fears and make the transition more tolerable. Give them as much time as possible to ask questions or express their feelings about the move. Answer all of their questions. Present the move in a positive light. Get them excited

about the changes to come. When you arrive in your new community, you may find that organized summer activities are already under way. It may be too late for your children to participate. Neighbourhood children may be away on vacation, making it difficult to make new friends immediately. There may be several weeks before new friends can be made at school. A mid-year move gives school-aged children the chance to connect with new friends. Advance planning can ensure children are involved in the new community quickly. Contact community centres about summer programs and make arrangements for children before the move. Contact schools as soon as possible to find out about registration and orientation programs. Get the children excited about moving. Help young children understand where they and their belongings are going. Show them the new neighbourhood – the house, the parks, the school – using online

maps. Visit stores or dining spots in the new area before the move so they are already familiar after the move. Plan a special outing or party with your friends and theirs before you move. Help children to create happy memories with best friends and at favourite places. Engage children in preparing for moving day. Have them select a few favourite items to carry with them on their trip. Have them pack a box of “special” items. This box should be the first to be unloaded. Arrange for someone to take care of the children while the movers are packing and loading. Parents will be very busy overseeing the move and may not be attentive to children’s needs. Children will need to adjust to their new setting. Set up the child’s room first so that their space provides some normalcy. If possible, invite old friends to come for a visit so children can show off their home. If you planned early, you probably did your research and have booked an ethical moving and storage com-

pany who will provide professional moving and storage services. If not, you may be finding that movers are already committed and are facing using a fly-by-night scam operator who will make promises and fail to deliver. Contact CAM for assistance in finding a good mover – a mover that subscribes to CAM’s code of ethics, meets CAM’s business standards and commits to mediation in

the unlikely event of a dispute. Your best protection in reducing your risk to your worldly possessions – and reducing the stress upon you and your family – is to hire a reputable company at the outset. For further information, visit CAM’s website at www.mover.net. Submitted by the Canadian Association of Movers.

They will be checking vehicles to ensure people are locking their doors and securing their valuables. “These are young people working in a great community. They are learning different skills which will help them attain the goals they set at the beginning of the program. They learn the value of volunteering and the benefits of pursuing their education. It’s all possible because of organizations such as the Ministry of Youth and Children Services, The Thousand Island Community Development Corporation and our local Rotary Clubs. It is an example of how our community and police work together.” Take a moment and introduce yourself when you see the YIPI students around town.

Kicking butt and laughing all the while – key components for Red 2

have no idea what Nightshade is. What’s worse, Sarah has been just itching to mix things up again, and Marvin has been encouraging her. As Frank, Marvin and Sarah try to dodge the CIA, MI6, the Russians and one very angry assassin called Han (Lee Byung- hun ) they have to figure out what Nightshade is. Fortunately they have Victoria on their side, and one of Frank’s old flames, Katja (Catherine Zeta-Jones), lends a hand. It’s just another game of spy versus spy where no can be trusted, and the fate of the world is at stake. Red 2 has some very slick car chases, fight scenes and gun play. There’s also some very funny one-liners, dialogue, and gags. It’s the perfect

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

MOVIE: Red 2 STARRING: Bruce Willis, Mary Louis Parker, John Malkovich, Helen Mirren, Catherine ZetaJones, Lee Byung-hun and Anthony Hopkins DIRECTOR: Dean Parisot RATING: PG EMC Entertainment - I’ve been told the key to enjoying retirement is staying active. Some people take up golf, others turn to gardening while people like Frank (Bruce Willis), Marvin (John Malkovich) and Victoria (Helen Mirren) save the world. Red 2 brings them all back together to kick butt, and make us laugh while they do it. I suppose there’s no real retirement for an exsuperspy. Especially when a top secret document is leaked to the web implicating you in a massive conspiracy. Now every spy agency in the world wants Frank, Marvin, and by association Sarah (Mary Louis Parker), dead. It all comes back to a job Frank and Marvin did a long time ago dubbed Nightshade.

What are some signs of dehydration? Signs of dehydration include fatigue, headache, dizziness, nausea, dry lips and mouth, and low energy. Many people experience constant low-level dehydration and feel tired and have a headache most of the day. Not drinking enough fluid could be one cause of this. What is the best way to consume more fluid? The best choices for replacing sweat losses and staying well hydrated include: - Water, including carbonated water, - Milk\100 per cent fruit juices, - Watery foods – watermelon, grapes, oranges, also other fruits and soups, - Watery “treats” such as freezies, jello, and popsicles – these can be high in sugar, however, - Sport drinks – but these can be high in sugar and caffeine, however. Are there drinks to avoid in extreme heat? Alcoholic drinks, such as beer, can cause the body to lose fluid; it is tempt-

ing to drink a cold beer in the heat, but don’t rely on alcohol to provide the body with fluid – make sure to drink water after each alcoholic drink. Caffeine is a diuretic and also causes the body to lose water. Coffee, tea, dark soft drinks, and some energy drinks can have high amounts of caffeine – make sure to drink water in between caffeine drinks as well.

ences into the world of competitive spelling – a world where pre-pubescent angst meets astonishing intelligence. Created by William Finn, Rachel Sheinkin, Rebecca Feldman, and Jay Reiss, this piece combines the hilarious, dramatic and tender elements of growing up and fitting in. “What makes this show different than other theatre productions is the way it blurs the line that separates actors from the audience,” says Director Ashlie Corcoran. “People want to see the actors work on the fly; this show incorporates last-minute improvisations each night- it’s a blast to watch the cast work on their toes! Especially when they are playing such heartwarming characters.” The highly talented nine-person cast welcomes back Kristin Galer as Rona Lisa Peretti, Piper Goodeve as Olive Ostrovsky and Alison MacDonald as Logainne SchwartzandGrubenierre. The Playhouse welcomes the debut performances of Andrew Kushnir as Leaf Coneybear, Benjamin Kyte as William Barfée, Michael-Lamont Lytle as Mitch Mahoney, Eric Morin as Chip Tolentino, Nicole Norsworthy as Marcy Park, and Michael Spencer-Davis as Vice Principal Douglas Panch. Thousand Islands Playhouse Artistic Director Ashlie Corcoran is directing this production, with music direction by James Smith, choreography by Shelley Stewart Hunt, set design by Lindsay Anne Black, costume design by Robin Fisher, lighting design by Michelle Ramsay, sound design and composition by Michael Laird, stage management by Kate Porter, assistant stage management by Monika Seiler, and assistant direction by Nathaniel Bryan. There is a show advisory rating of PG-13. Show times are Tuesday – Saturday 8 p.m.; Matinees: Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays 2:30 p.m. (starting Wednesday after opening night). Pricing: Adults $32, 65 plus $30, students $16, half priced preview - Aug. 2 (all are plus HST). Groups $26 - $28. Book online at www.1000islandsplayhouse.com or call the Box Office at 613-382-7020.

The PFLAG (Parents, Families and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) team overwhelming lost to Super Spikes during Saturday’s volleyball game. Super Spike teammate Rob returns the volleyball during one of the games, below. Under sunny skies, the 2013 Brockville Pride Parade took place on Saturday, July 20 with groups walking from the King Street East Brockville Armoury to Hardy Park. This was Brockville’s third annual Pride Week with it being the second annual Brockville Pride Parade through the streets. Various information booths and displays, music and a barbecue were all available at Hardy Park, including a volleyball game. Above, Super Spikes team members came prepared to be recognized as a group of serious volleyball players with their sign and pink shirts. Laughing from just winning a volleyball game were, left to right, Jamie, Charlotte, Shay, Rob, Tosha and Mike. Photos by DOREEN BARNES

Advertising and Regional Roundup

It is with great sadness that the family announces the passing of Joerg Peter Sr. Pueschel. Peter passed away peacefully with Ann, Peter Jr. and Patti by his side on Thursday, July 19, 2013 at Kingston General Hospital. Peter is survived by his loving wife of 46 years and son and former business partner, Peter Jr., wife Patti and their four children, Justin, Jessica, Zander and Brody, sister Heidi Marie (Dieter), niece Verena of Germany, sister-in-law Joanne (Donnie), nephew Daniel and niece Brittany of Brockville, sister-inlaw Margaret of Wakefield, Quebec. Peter was born in Berlin, Germany on June 19, 1941, son of Gerda and Lothar Pueschel. He became a Master Chef and moved to Canada. Peter worked in Toronto and the Bahamas before settling in Brockville where he enjoyed many years cooking for his favourite city residents and travelers. He was a devoted husband, father, opa and hero to everyone he met. He will be truly missed and loved always by his family. A private family service will be held at the Oakland Cemetery. A memorial plaque and tree will be planted in his honour, a memorial for all to enjoy. Our deepest gratitude goes to all the dedicated doctors and nurses at the KGH Cardiac Care Unit, to the officers at the Canadian border and the ambulance paramedics who all went above and beyond their call of duty to help Peter and his family. We will be forever grateful. In memory of Peter donations to the Kingston Hospital Foundation - KGH Cardiac Care Unit. would be appreciated by the family. Arrangements in care of the Barclay Funeral Home, 137 Pearl St. E., Brockville.

EMC Lifestyle - Leroy was brought in as a friendly stray. No one claimed him, he’s now fixed and up to date with vaccinations, and it’s time to get him out of the shelter into life. He’s a little guy with a lot of spunk – outgoing, loves people, confident, full of energy, and it’s tough for him to be confined. He shares the Sunroom with 20 other cats and a big picture window and the moment the door opens he makes a beeline and is out investigating the rest of the building and asserting himself with other cats – which tells us he’s beginning to go a little stir-crazy and who can blame him? When he’s in his cage he’s very vocal, telling us he wants out! Leroy would fit nicely into any home environment, even a busy and noisy one. Leroy would love you to visit him at the Gananoque & District Humane Society, 85 Hwy 32 just north of the 401, open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon. Phone 613-382-1512 or email humanesociety@bellnet.ca. We are always looking for volunteers and a wide variety of skills are needed – shelter work caring for the animals, fostering dogs or cats and kittens in your home, administrative office work, fundraising, driving animals to the vet, and more. We are 100 per cent volunteer-run and really do need your help.

Firing at pins - not always the smartest approach shot EMC Sports - So you’ve just put your tee ball in the fairway, now it’s time to hit your approach shot into the green. That approach shot can be performed with a fairway wood, a hybrid, and most likely your irons. Well that obviously depends on your skill level of course. When it comes to hitting quality approach shots, it doesn’t mean you’ll be firing at all the pins does it? With so much exposure given to the Professional Golf Tours on TV, watch and learn how the best players in the world handle their approach shots. The late great television analyst and

great Tour player in his day and he was also my favourite analyst, Ken Venturi called a spade a spade. If the pin was located on the right side of the green, Venturi would pipe up and inform his television audience that the smart shot would be 10 feet left of the pin. He always noted that if a player missed the green to the right, it was a mistake. Why would he say that do you think? For one, you short side yourself, that means you are chipping to the green with very little green between you and the hole. Tough up and down there, if

you miss it miss it to the left where you will have lots of green to work with. Getting that out of the way leaves me the lee-way to help you out with your approach shot strategy. The safe bet here, you’ll make more birdies and sure pars by playing more to the middle of the greens. I personally learned this from my mentor and good friend Jimmy Edgar. Jimmy and I played a few tournament rounds together and he noticed something that was really holding me back. He sat me down one evening and laid it on the line. He told me that I was scor-

ing a lot higher than I should be with my ballstriking ability. He referenced Greg Norman and his struggles in the Majors because he was too aggressive. Norman always fired at the pins and it didn’t matter where they were situated. If he would have played more to the center of the greens, he would have been considered one of the all time greats. Norman is aggressive by nature and that truly did cost him in the end, can you remember the 1996 Masters and the final round where he played with and lost to Nick Faldo? Anyways play smarter and don’t get sucked into going for those sucker pin placements. You know, the ones favouring one side of the green or the other. Those pins that are tucked in behind sand traps or located close to a hazard. Hopefully you get the drift here. The other strategy I am going to touch on is what I touched on last week. Play your tee shot to your comfortable go to yardage. This will help you by making a smooth full swing with a sand or lob wedge. So the next time you approach your second shot into the green, go behind your ball some five or six steps or so and assess your shot. Things to assess are the wind direction, the lie you are on, downhill, uphill or sidehill and the temperature. Each one of these will affect your ball flight. Play more of your approach shots to the middle of the green and watch your scores drop, I know this helped me going forward. It will certainly help you get to that elusive ‘Player’ status. British Open conditions locally In watching the 2013 British Open and listening to all the complaints the players are making about the course conditions reminds me of the time when the Sherwood Golf Course, now Cedar Valley, hosted the first round of the City Golf Championships. It was in the mid

90’s and caught a lot of us off guard to say the least. I was a member at the Brockville Country Club at the time and we were spoiled as our course was green and well conditioned. Whereas the Sherwood course was brown and the ground was really hard. Their greens wouldn’t hold any of the approach shots that flew into them. Wow did that pose a new challenge for us spoiled brats of the BCC who would never in our wildest dreams would think we would play golf in such trying conditions. I kind of figured it out in a practice round I played there a few days before the event, but if you didn’t play a practice round, you were in for a treat. You had to hit your approach shots some 20 to 30 yards short of the green. You couldn’t fly your approach shots to the greens because they wouldn’t hold. Very similar conditions to those witnessed at this year’s British Open. This was our introduction to links style golf and to be honest a lot of our hot shot players at the BCC couldn’t adapt their games and their score certainly reflected as much. And oh yes did we hear the complaints and excuses about this and that. Bottom line here, you are supposed to be an elite golfer in this area, learn to adapt your game to the conditions you are playing on. Period. Thought I would throw that in as it was interesting playing conditions. We had to play more bump and runs and not chance flying the ball into those rock hard greens. You will not always play on the greatest course conditions, so accept it and learn to adapt your game, you’ll be a better player for it.

Stephane Lafrance dominates the field for win one of the season at Brockville Speedway van Bennett lost the handle on his car in turn 4. When the green flew it was Pugh jumping well out in front of the field pulling out to a 5 car length lead over Sheldon Hoogwerf, Ryan Poole, Dana Aikins and Jon Mills. Pugh had the fastest car all night long and was looking for his first ever Sportsman win but Hoogwerf was looking to close the gap. On lap 15 Hoogwerf closed to within a car length as the leaders battled lapped traffic but Pugh still held the advantage. Just like in the Modified feature the top drivers were having their struggles getting to the front. Chris Herbison, Shane Pecore and Dylan Evoy started deep in the field and would break into the top 10 late in the event. On lap 17 the yellow flew for Jason Shipclark as he spun in turn 2. When the green flew is was still Pugh well out in front but the race was far from over. On lap 23 Dylan Evoy was making a run at the top 5 off turn 4 and would suddenly slow coming down the front stretch bringing the yellow out for the final time. With a one lap shootout Aaron Pugh played it perfectly and would lead all 25 laps for his first career Sportsman feature win over Hoogwerf, Poole, Aikins, and Mills. In the 15 lap Rookie Sportsman race Josh Powers used a great move from the outside pole to take away the top spot early on with Tristan Draper and Chris Bakker rounding out the top 3. Powers had a great car on this night and would pull out to a half straightaway lead but Draper was on the charge. With 5 laps to go he quickly closed in on the leader and the battle was on. A late caution flew for Jamie Young who blew a right rear tire, he would return to the field before the next restart. When the green flew Draper saw an opportunity and made the pass for the top spot as the field exited turn 4. Once in front nobody was catching Draper on this night as he cruised to his 2nd win in a row and 3rd of the season over Powers and Jamie Young would charge from 6th to finish 3rd on the final lap. The Street Stock division has not seen

a repeat winner in 7 events this season and Danny Mocibob was looking to become the next new winner as he rocketed to the lead from the outside pole over Steve Kearney, Alex Gagnon, Brock Cullen and Darrick Eaton. Mocibob had one of the fastest cars on the speedway as he led the opening 5 laps before the yellow flew for Perry Comeau who spun off turn 4. On the restart Alex Gagnon was on the charge from his 6th starting spot and would take the lead from Mocibob with just 6 laps remaining. Gagnon has not won yet this season and appeared to have the win in his back pocket until he spun off turn 1 with 3 laps to go bringing out the yellow again. This would leave 3 time and defending track champion Kevin Fetterly Jr. out front and was looking to win for the 2nd time. When the green came back out Fetterly would make it look as easy as he became the first 2 time winner of the season with Brock Cullen, Danny Mocibob, John Gifford and Steve Kearney rounding out the top 5. The Rookie division always provides some great racing action and this night was another great battle in the 15 lap affair. Geneva Sheffield and Tyler Markell were impressive on the front row but it was Corbin Miller stealing the show as he raced out to the early lead. Miller has been in a close points battle all year long with Quincy Roberts and it came right down to those 2 drivers as they raced for the top spot all night. Tyson Slinger, Ron Day and Geneva Sheffield continued her season best run completing the top 5. The yellow flew on lap 10 for Tyler Markell as he spun in turn 4. When the green flew Miller was looking to claim his first win since opening day and despite many

late race challenges from Roberts it was Miller taking his 2nd win of the year over Roberts, Slinger, Day and Sheffield who experienced rear end issues with her race car but still came home 5th. Next week NAPA Auto Parts will be on the card for the 2nd annual Brockville Ontario Speedway Hall of Fame induction ceremony. Three legendary drivers and 2 patrons of the sport will be honoured during next week’s full program.

EMC Sports - It was a very busy night at the Brockville Ontario Speedway this past Saturday night. All five divisions were ready to do battle along with the first appearance of the season for the Patriot Sprint Tour. The 358 Modifieds have a tight points battle going on between Lee Gill and Danny O’Brien. Both drivers came in to Tackaberry Construction night separated by 17 points and would roll off 13th and 14th on the grid. Up front a pair of Kingston natives led the field to the start of the 30 lap event. Andy Lloyd and Tim O’Brien charged hard into turn 1 and O’Brien wasted no time taking over the top spot bringing Stephane Lafrance and Bryan Rogers with him to 2nd and 3rd. O’Brien would lead the opening 5 laps until Lafrance used a power move down low in turn 4 to grab the lead. Once in front Lafrance began to pull away to a commanding lead as Tim O’Brien, Bryan Rogers, Luke Whitteker and Andy Lloyd battled it out from 2nd to 5th. With all the laps on the speedway it made passing very tough as some of the heavy hitters were caught in traffic throughout the event. Danny O’Brien, Lee Gill and Pat O’Brien did not even crack the top 10 until just past the halfway point but the one driver who did figure out how to pass was Kyle Dingwall. After starting 12th he patiently made his way into the top 5 on lap 17 getting by Andy Lloyd for 5th and was in pursuit of rest of the top 5. On lap 20 the first caution flew for Jason Riddell who went off the speedway in turn 1. On the restart Lafrance made it look very easy as he pulled away from the rest of the field and survived one more caution flag on lap 26 to score his first win of 2013. Bryan Rogers had his best finish of the year to come home 2nd. Luke Whitteker, Tim O’Brien and Kyle Dingwall rounded out the top 5. The first of 3 appearances for the Patriot Sprint Tour was set to take on “The BOS� as Jamie Collard was looking to become the first repeat winner on the tour this year. Collard would have the best spot as he took the lead from the pole and would set a torrid pace in the early going with Devin Caron, Michael Parent, Jared Zimbardi and Chris Jones making up the top 5 positions early on. The first yellow flew on lap 4 as Kyle Fraser lost the handle in turn 3. Two laps later Keith Dempster also experienced the same problem bringing out the yellow on lap 6. The green would come back out and Collard still held the top spot but turn 3 was about to strike again. Dale Gosselin made contact with another car sending him flipping wildly over the bank. Gosselin was able to climb out of the car after assistance from medical officials and was taken in the ambulance for observations but would be ok. When the race resumed Collard still had a great car and would pull away once again but lapped traffic played the great equalizer as Parent and Zimbardi both closed in with 10 to go. The yellow would come out again for Kyle Fraser as he spun in turn 2. Collard would get the advantage again when the green flag flew leaving Parent and Zimbardi to battle for 2nd and 3rd . Parent’s great run came to an end as he spun in tricky turn 3 bringing out the final caution. This set up a 3 lap dash to the checkers and Collard would pull away for his 2nd win of the season over Jared Zimbardi, Devin Caron, Justin Barger and Steve Poirier. In the 25 lap Sportsman feature Aaron Pugh was looking to get his season back on track after a great stint in the Rookie Sportsman division earlier in the year.
