COMMUNITY

Community - Five-year-old Bryson Buelow of Arnprior kept bugging his mom, Brittany, to hold their special lemonade fundraiser. With Tim Hortons’ and Giant Tiger’s donations of coffee or lemonade, the Buelows did host their two-hour lemonade, coffee and bake sale Sept. 14 Mac’s store location on Daniel Street in Arnprior. It wasn’t just your ordinary lemonade sale, though. Proceeds were earmarked for the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontario Foundation because Bryson has been a cerebral palsy patient at CHEO since being born two months premature. Although he has a mild case of cerebral palsy, he still faces medical issues. However, a brace on his less stable left leg and recent inner-ear surgery have made life a little easier for the youngster, who skates and plays soccer. Because CHEO has provided such amazing care for her son, Bryson’s mother says they wanted to use the event as a way to give back to CHEO and support other children who receive care at the Ottawa hospital. “I’m so happy and satisfied with our community,� said Brittany after the event, held Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., raised about $900. “I am extremely pleased.� So pleased, she says, that they plan to make it an annual event. The event was also in keeping with Bryson’s caring way for other kids, says his mother. The money raised included a $100 donation from Times Fiber, the Renfrew employer of Bryson’s grandfather, Roger. See Page 6 for a photo from the event.

McNab Braeside Fire Department members Kelly O’Rourke and David Armstrong are carrying 20-kilogram self-contained breathing apparatus tanks during the Arnprior Terry Fox Run’s 10-km walk. Fellow firefighter Duane Stevens — and his parents Hazel and Everett Stevens who are in their late 70s — were also walking. “We’re here to continue Terry Fox’s work,� said event co-ordinator Stephen Dodd, who said he was “ecstatic� with the $7,000 raised through the event.

Tax write-offs delayed on properties The town’s plan to write off taxes on two properties is being put on hold. The properties in question – 25 Daniel St. N. and Staye Court Dr., PT. LT 4, Conc. A – did not garner any tenders during a tax sale June 6. Following the failed tax sale, the town has the option of registering a Notice of Vesting, however town staff recommended against it and the properties are still registered to their owners. “Staff is not recommending proceeding with the write off at this point,â€? explained assistant direction of corporate services/treasurer Renee Couture. She noted in her report if the town writes the taxes off and they remained privately held, the properties could eventually be sold and the town would not recover any of the outstanding taxes. Staff is also looking into other potential options such as BrownďŹ eld funding and MPAC decrease in assessment. A report will come back to council for consideration. “I’d like to hear what our options are,â€? said Reeve Walter Stack. “We don’t want to own them.â€? Mayor David Reid agreed and said the properties are both in the community redevelopment plan and if developed, might be able to yield taxes in 10 to 15 years. But, he noted, the properties should be cleaned up.

News – David Ridgen is ready to give Arnprior, as well as other parts of Eastern Ontario, their close-ups. The award-winning filmmaker and local native gave town council an overview last Tuesday evening of what his plans are for first feature film entitled Cicada. The film tells the story SUBMITTED of an eight-year-old girl who is kidnapped and Eight-year-old Avery Mulvihill of Arnprior stars in Cicada. Filmmaker David Ridgen gave the effect that has on her as she grows up. “She (girl) is kidnapped and is taking on the council a glimpse of how the Ottawa Valley will be the backdrop for the film. road by two bad people and she escapes and later in life she goes through some issues and the film is about her trying to figure out what happened to her after she was kidnapped,â€? Ridgen said. While he has made his name is short films and documentaries, most on cold cases, he is most known for his documentary entitled Mississippi Cold Case. This first aired on CBC and 2007 and drew international attention and resulted in the arrest and conviction of the final surviving Ku Klux Klan member responsible ÂŽ for the 1964 killing of the black civil rights Every September, Shoppers Drug Mart stores across workers in Mississippi. Canada set up a Tree of Life in support of women’s health, With the move into the realm of feature with 100% of all proceeds going directly to women’s films, Ridgen has remembered his roots.

As with any film, having enough money to get it to the big screen is key. While he has received some funding, he is need of more. He told council the Ontario Media Corporation (OMC) is an organization the government runs that “supports films that work in the regions that are undeveloped in this areaâ€? and he has applied for funding. Through two separate funds in the OMC, he has applied for $25,000

and $450,000 respectively. He added he would also be seeking support from the town and/Chamber of Commerce in the form of a letter or endorsement. Financial support, he added would not be turned out either. He will also be meeting with Telefilm and that organization can fund up to $1 milllion. “I can produce the film for far less, but obviously I would like to produce it for as much money as we can possibly get,� Ridgen said. He showed council a small clip featuring Avery Mulvihill talking about her experience in the movie. IN TALKS

Ridgen has secured some major actors to be in the film, and is in talks with some Canadian stars as well. A community that serves as a location shoot can reap many rewards, and Ridgen said communities like those feature in the film Winter’s Bone, or Twilight have been able to capitalize on the success of those films. “Twilight was shot in small town in Washington and that is a huge boom to the town every year to have people coming in droves to check out where the vampires live,� Ridgen explained, adding millions of tourists travel to the small town in Georgia where the AMC series The Walking Dead. “The Ottawa film industry is also growing too and we can latch onto that,� he added. “Eastern Ontario is ripe for development and I am looking for any support.� Reeve Walter Stack wondered what the timeline was to complete the film. Ridgen said the budget for the films is a “scaling budget� and he will make the film with whatever funds he gets but he needs to see how much financing he can get. “I am hoping for spring 2014 to start shooting and hopefully at least over half the budget will be in place,� Ridgen said. Stack also wondered if the filmmaker was looking for monetary support to which Ridgen replied he would welcome such support. He said he would be interested in speaking with the town, or businesses interested in providing some support. Mayor David Reid asked about the content of the film and whether or not it was something the town should be supporting. “Should we be concerned about anything?� Reid asked. “It’s not porn,� Ridgen replied. “In fact, I think films are more interesting when they show less of that (skin).�

‘Sky’s the limit’ once word gets out about all town has to offer The proposed Devcore Development off Baskin Drive is one of many Arnprior housing developments prompted by the arrival of the four lanes of Highway 417 reaching the town from Ottawa. Town officials are re-banding the town in an effort to maximize efforts to bring new residents, tourists, businesses and industries to town.

Continued from front

Now that CEO Michael Wildman has put his stamp on the town’s operations, he is turning his sights to a marketing and economic development campaign, which he says has already begun and will reach its peak in 201415. Hand-in-hand with that is the continued development of town infrastructure, as Arnprior needs to be ready to handle and welcome new investment. As well, several town bylaws and procedures have been updated and streamlined to ensure developers know what is expected of them and are not unduly wrapped up in red tape. Instead of competing interests, there is now more of a team effort promoting Arnprior at town hall and working out solutions to help both the town and developers, Wildman said. “We want the community to know there has been a real shift in the last six months.” He explained that Wilson has already been active in several areas with an eye to setting up a modern, professional business model so Arnprior is prepared to take advantage when investment comes calling. “There has been a lot going on behind the scenes,” he said. “We need to be prepared. Image is important.” Wilson has been compiling a wide range of information on everything from available properties in town to the talents of the local labour force. Knowledge is strength, she said, noting that having data at her fingertips is crucial ‘when potential investors come knocking,” as well for a campaign to go after investment in what is a highly competitive market-place. “We need really put our best foot forward … and go after business,” she said. “We want to impress on people that we’re a welcoming community.” Arnprior has plenty of attributes with which to use to attract development, she noted. “It’s a growing community with a highly sought-after lifestyle that serves a large collection area,” she said. “We need new services here to support that growth.” Wilson says Arnprior’s natural beauty, reasonably priced housing, skilled work force, four-lane accessibility to Ottawa and the fact it is one of a very few towns to have an airport are all selling points to investors. A new logo and slogan has recently been approved by council to help drive the campaign. Responding to comments by councillors, Wilson tweaked the logo and shared it with members of council’s community development com-

mittee Sept. 3. “We’ve punched up the colour,” she reported. “It’s now a starting point for more formal efforts sell the town … now we have the image we want, we can really get out and attract new investment.” The re-branding of the town with the new logo and tagline will be used in launching a more modern website this fall and distributing new promotional material. Wilson was delighted with the public response to the logo-slogan contest. “It shows the community really wants to help,” she said. “It makes our job easier.” INPUT MEETINGS

At the Sept. 3 committee meeting, Wilson provided updates on several of her efforts, including plans to meet with home-builders and commercial interests this fall to gain input and insight on what Arnprior needs to do. Home-builders will be invited to a meeting around the end of September to share what type of potential residents they are looking to attract. “They have the information we need so we can best help them,” said Wilson. She is compiling a data base of available properties to help guide potential newcomers to Arnprior in both the residential and business sectors. Wilson is anticipating holding a similar session in late October or early November with existing and potential business owners. They have the expertise on what services need to be improved and added in town to best serve the residents of Arnprior, she said. She stressed that the idea is to not only attract new businesses and industries, but to help current ones expand and prosper. “We want to help locals sell what they are offering.” The meeting will help get the word out to the commercial sector “that we’re here

and happy to help businesses develop,” she said. For example, the town is working with T. Anas Holdings to identify potential commercial enterprises that would be a good fit in its proposed development planned for east of PJ’s Restaurant on Madawaska Boulevard, she noted. More and more commercial developers are showing interest in smaller communities because of less red tape and lower costs, she said. Wilson has also broached the idea of a business registry to council. The free updated list of businesses in town could be posted on the town website and help both those offering and looking for services. “I’m finding about local businesses every day,” said Wilson. She said that there are many lesser-known Internet and home-based businesses that could help in attracting people to town, “Not everyone has a storefront.” She explained that she receives grant information and can more easily distribute it to those who might benefit if she has an accurate list of local businesses. While the town has been successful recently in receiving grants for improvement to Landrigan Street and the museum, there is also a variety of money available for upgrading aspects from heritage and façade to downtown revitalization and Brownfield rehabilitation. Wilson said she is also working on a Discovery Guide publication to come out early next year to help draw tourists to the town. She will be asking for support from local businesses to put in advertising and coupons. If the town does its part in helping getting the word out about all Arnprior has to offer tourists, new residents, businesses and industry, “the sky’s the limit,” said Wildman. “It’s going to be a lot of hard work, but it can really pay off.”

Giving back to CHEO Bryson Buelow, 5, of Arnprior staffs his lemonade stand as his mother Brittany and sister Charlee join him. The inaugural lemonade, coffee and bake sale raised about $900.

THE TOWN OF ARNPRIOR has completed a Water & Wastewater Master Plan for the Town’s potable water distribution and sanitary sewage collection systems. The Master Plan identifies infrastructure requirements to address current deficiencies and support future development and growth in the Town for the next 20 years. This project was prepared as a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (EA) which is an approved process under the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act. The purpose of this Notice is to inform the public of the completion of the planning stage of this project. The Town is making the final Master Plan report available to the general public at the following locations: 1) Arnprior Town Hall, 105 Elgin Street West, Arnprior, ON, K7S 0A8, Tel: 613-623-4231 2) Town Website at http://www.arnprior.ca/pdf/2013wwmasterplan.pdf Written comments may be submitted until October 20th, 2013 to: John Steckly, A.Sc.T.

Union calls for minimum wage bump News - Representatives of the newly created Unifor union appeared before the Ontario panel studying minimum wages in the province and called for the minimum wage to be increased to $14 per hour. The presentation was made by Jim Stanford and Jordan Brennan, both economists working in Unifor’s Research Department. The Unifor submission pointed out that the current minimum wage ($10.25 per hour) has been frozen for three-and-a-half years, during which time its real purchasing power has eroded by over 7 per cent (compared to average consumer prices in the province).

“It is terribly unfair that Ontario’s lowest-income workers have experienced such a significant reduction in their real wages, at a time when working families need every penny,” said Stanford. LIVING WAGE

The Unifor submission also endorsed the concept of a “living wage,” which is a wage sufficient to allow a family of four, with two wage-earners, to pay for the basic necessities of family life. Studies have estimated the living wage in Ontario to be around $18 per hour, and

so increasing the statutory minimum to $14 must be only the first step of a broader strategy required to ensure all Ontario workers can enjoy decent living standards. The union’s submission reviewed economic evidence regarding the link between minimum wages and employment levels, and concluded that a higher minimum wage would not have any negative impact on employment. In fact, by boosting purchasing power and consumer spending, and helping lowerincome families reduce their debt loads, a higher minimum wage could actually have a net positive impact on jobs.

It’s time to recognize their dedication and nominate them for the 2013 Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Award. This newspaper strongly supports the Ontario Junior Citizen of the Year Awards here in Renfrew, so we can provide recognition for such outstanding young people who continue to be fine examples of leaders in our community.

Please help us by nominating an individu-

al in one of four areas: • A person involved in worthwhile community service. • A special young person contributing to their community while living with a physical or psychological limitation. • An individual who has performed an act of heroism in the past year. • Good kids who show a commitment to make life better for others and do more than is normally expected of someone their age. Up to 12 nominees will be chosen as the final recipients of the provincial award and will be invited to a special ceremony held in the spring of 2014.

OPINION

It was wonderful knowing you all Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

Opinion - All good things must come to an end. By working for the Arnprior Chronicle-Guide and the West Carleton Review for the past seven months, I was given a unique opportunity to immerse myself in a community. I learned from you, growing from your shared experience and knowledge. I laughed at the silly moments and cried at the sad ones. I sometimes even raged at the unfairness, at the roadblocks and the cruelty that some of you experienced. There were moments of intense frustration and moments were everything fit in together without a thought. Long hours were shared with incredible coworkers, stories meshed and grew and evolved. I flexed my writing muscles, explored different styles, different lengths, different angles.

I probed them all for as much journalism information as I could. I won’t lie and say that I matured, but I also like to think that I grew as a person. In a few short months, I rode in a small aircraft, handled a myriad of strange animals, discovered new philosophies and belief systems, and met with people whose mere words made my soul soar with inspiration. Every experience, every conversation, every interview, every photo just added to the mosaic. Not everybody can say they were that lucky. I’m incredibly grateful for the experience and it’s all because of you, the community. So my contract with Metroland may have ended and the road is fully open to me. I may not have a plan in place and I have no idea where my feet will land, but part of the sweetness of life is discovering the journey bit by bit.

Pedestrian rights come first To the editor: Opinion – Why are Arnprior drivers so aggressive, we wonder? Why are pedestrians in town getting hit at crosswalks or having to run for their lives? Now that school has started, will it get worse? One reason is obvious: they feel walkers are secondclass citizens and just a nuisance. Another reason: no police presence at the dangerous corners. Drivers – remember that God gave people legs to walk; people invented autos. Whose rights should come first here? And get off your damn cell phones in your cars. Kate Manship Arnprior

Milkweeds harbour many colourful characters Caterpillar transforms into a rather plain moth, one that contains the same chemical protection sequestered during its caterpillar stage. Instead of bright colours, however, the moth advertises its distasteful properties in another, most unusual way. First, as it flies in the night air, a special membrane on its body detects the calls of hunting bats. Before taking evasive action and quickly flying

Milkweed Tussock Caterpillars are a common sight this summer. species dares to do what other caterpillars do not for good reason: they are chemically armed and extremely distasteful to eat! The chemical deterrent in Milkweed Tussock caterpillar bodies comes directly from their host plants. Milkweeds contain distasteful cardiac glycosides, chemicals that are conducted through the veins of the leaves. By eating the tissues around the veins and not puncturing the latex-carrying canals, young caterpillars avoid encountering most of the toxins. Larger caterpillars employ a different technique: they slice open veins near their base, bleeding them of their defensive liquids and render-

ing the leaf blades safe to eat. Inevitably the caterpillars do ingest some of the plant’s toxins. These, however, are safely stored internally, a feature that makes the caterpillars distasteful to larger creatures. To notify potential predators of their unpalatable nature, Milkweed Tussock caterpillars bear conspicuous colours. Their long hairs are also a deterrent to many animals. After a winter spent in a hairy cocoon, a Milkweed Tussock

Lifestyle - This year a couple of widespread phenomena have been observed by many of you. One has been the unprecedented invasion by Giant Swallowtail butterflies. Another has been the alarming paucity of Monarchs in both their butterfly and caterpillar stages. Almost everyone who this summer has searched milkweeds for Monarch caterpillars has failed dismally in their efforts. However, other milkweed insects have been found in good numbers. In particular, a very hairy caterpillar dressed in striking black, orange, and white has been abundant. The creature – the Milkweed Tussock Caterpillar – can still be found on milkweed plants in our area. To find these caterpillars just look for milkweeds with partly eaten leaves. You might even find milkweed leaves that have been completely stripped of all green material with only the veins left intact, looking like a de-fleshed skeleton. One needs not search long to find the animals responsible for the defoliation. Milkweed Tussock Caterpillars are generally found sitting in plain sight but they will hide under leaves when the sun stares down with a particularly hot intensity. Now, Nature abounds with caterpillars that blend so well into the background that unless they move they remain undetected. These caterpillars tend to feed at night and remain motionless until darkness falls. In complete defiance of the norm, Milkweed Tussock caterpillars brazenly feed in the daytime, boldly displaying their presence with conspicuously coloured hairs. This

down to the ground to where it hides among the foliage, the alerted moth sends out warning clicks that audibly tell bats it is not good eat! It has been suggested that the clicks also serve to jam the bat’s radar. From the caterpillar to the moth stage, the Milkweed Tussock Moth is one complex insect!

BIA future in jeopardy

New Flyer fundraiser to feature single person city bus pull Patricia Leboeuf pleboeuf@metroland.com

News - Featherweights need not apply to the New Flyer City Bus Pull, as each bus weighs about 13 tons, measures 40 feet and needs to be dragged by hand across 60 feet. These strong men and women aren’t merely trying to show of their muscles for the crowd, but they are also trying to raise money for the Renfrew County United Way. Professional strongman Paul Vaillancourt will demonstrate a single person pull as part of the fundraiser. The event is in its third year and will be held on Wednesday, Oct. 9, starting at noon, at the New Flyer Service Centre on Hartney Street in Arnprior. There is room for additional teams of more or less athletic pullers. Pulling a full-sized bus isn’t the typical fundraising activity, but it does draw attention. “Obviously we are a bus repair shop so it’s a natural fit for us to pull a bus,” said New Flyer Industries manager of Arnprior service centre Colin Hooper. “It’s a little bit unique. I mean there are a lot of people pulling stuff like fire trucks and airplanes and all sorts of things. But it is something different for the local community to come out and watch and support and make donations to help us support United Way.” The current record stands at 12 seconds. “The biggest part of the event is to get the bus rolling,” said Hooper. “Once it’s rolling, it’s quite easy, if you are working together as a

Theresa Fritz theresa.fritz@metroland.com

team, to get the bus up to a good speed and get it over the finish line.” The teams are built out of 12 participants and the fastest team receives a “very nice trophy for the year.” The team members have various strength levels and come from all over to compete. CFB Petawawa soldiers, high school students, business owners, their employees and groups of ornery residents are just a few that show up to test their mettle. “All the local businesses, we go to them and ask if they’d like to put a team in for the afternoon,” said Hooper. “Each team makes a donation to compete and that’s how we raise money for the event.” About $800 was raised the first year and that amount quintupled to $4,000 the following year. This year organizers very much hope to raise the same amount or even more. The donated money will remain and be used to help people in the area. “Because it is the Renfrew County United Way, what we donate to it stays in the community,” said Hooper. “With many other charities, you donate but you don’t see the results of your efforts. We just feel that if it’s going to stay in the local community, that’s where we should be.” During the event, there will be a barbecue on site, a bake sale and a raffle. To sign up a team or to donate to the cause, contact Shannon Laughlan at 613-622-7949 or by email at shannon_laughlan@newflyer.com.

News – The fate of the Arnprior Business Improvement Area (BIA) hangs in the balance. BIA members were invited to attend a meeting at the Nick Smith Centre Monday afternoon, the sole purpose of which was to determine if there is adequate support and involvement of BIA members to justify its continuation. Around 25 business owners, landlords and tenants attended the meeting where they were asked to vote by ballot on whether or not they wanted the organization to continue. “We are here just to see what the interest is to maintain the BIA,” said town marketing and economic development officer Lindsey Wilson. “We really want to gauge the interest.” She told those assembled that if the vote if favourable to continue the BIA, there are three vacant positions on the current board that need to be filled. They are secretary, treasurer and committee chair. Nominations for these positions, should the BIA continue, must be in by Oct. 15 with elections set for Oct. 30. This meeting was important because back on Aug. 12, the town passed a bylaw to assume interim control of the BIA. Town clerk Maureen Spratt said under the bylaw, a vote of those in the BIA area must be held to justify its continuation. The town assumed interim control of the BIA because the organization did not have a quorum at is annual meeting to legally vote and approve its budget. “Council and staff feel the BIA is of tremendous value,” Spratt said. “The BIA have to show they are willing to continue…I don’t want anyone to think we are here to shut down the BIA.” While pleased with the fact people turned out for the meeting, she noted many did not come out. There are approximately 110 businesses that pay a BIA levy on their taxes. Mayor David Reid said he personally supports the BIA but admitted “by all accounts it has not been as successful as it could be.” Reid said the town has “no choice” but to assume control and without a budget struck, there is no funding this year. “I think the BIA is a useful tool but it will only be successful if there is buy in from many of the businesses,” he stated. “I personally

would like to see it continue but if it isn’t going to be effective, it is a waste of the board’s time and it is a waste of everyone’s time.” Current BIA chair Chantal Beaulieu cautioned if there is no BIA there would be no one to “step up and do the flowers” and other beautification projects that benefit the businesses. She wondered if the town would not pay for those things. “I can’t guarantee it will continue on,” Reid responded. “It will be up to the property owners to put baskets up on their own stores.” Another current BIA board member, Giant Tiger store owner Mike Marcil, expressed concern there would be no money for next year if the organization continued. Beaulieu said doing the flowers and the Christmas baskets alone costs $10,000. My Chocolate Factory owner Andy Lyon said the BIA’s lack of success rests on many shoulders but the time is now to look forward and not backwards. “We waste a lot of time and energy on the small details and we miss the economy of the downtown core,” Lyon said. “It is important we all share a vision for it (BIA). If you don’t have it, you will all suffer individually…we need leadership from the top down.” It was suggested that people might be more enthused about the BIA if council took more of an interest in the downtown. Reid challenged that point saying several meetings were held regarding downtown revitalization and there was “very little interest” from business owners. In fact, he said he was disappointed by the turnout at those meetings. Others suggested if the BIA was to succeed, the board must support its members. Marcil said the board’s biggest challenge is “to see the support of the membership.” Everyone seemed to agree a proactive approach was the key to success and no one spoke outright about dismantling the BIA. “”You need to have meetings where you can speak your mind,” Spratt urged. With that, all those present were asked to vote by secret ballot as to their wishes for the future of the BIA. The results of that vote were not released at that meeting or prior to the Chronicle-Guide’s press deadline.

Museum gets a makeover

Community - The Arnprior and District Quilters’ Guild first meeting of the season is on Wednesday, Sept. 25. The group meets at the Christian Education Centre from 7-9 p.m.

Sherry Haaima Sherry.haaima@metroland.com

Community – The Arnprior and District Museum’s second floor is getting a brand new look and the community can have a say in what they’d like to see on display. The display cases have been removed, the artifacts put in storage and now the team dedicated to working on the new exhibit space is getting busy planning and preparing. Project manager Caitlin Hudson is leading the way with assistance from Lyndsey Sullivan and Alix McLeod. The work is funded in part by a Renfrew County Community Futures Development Corporation grant. The three women are graduates of Algonquin College’s applied museum studies program. Professor Mike Wheatley recommended the graduates and helped facilitate the project. Key to getting the new exhibit in place is finding out what the public would like to have at their museum. One of the ways the team is garnering suggestions is through an online survey. “We want feedback from residents of Arnprior to let us know what they want in the exhibit, what they think is important and what stories they would like told,” said Hudson. The women are working on design and construction plans at the moment. A modern and sleek look will be the focus. “We want it to be bright and open and also easy to navigate,” said Hudson, who added that video and audio clips will be part of the new exhibit. As always, the museum’s volunteers have contributed greatly to the project, helping tear down the existing cases and store the artefacts. “We’re really excited to have them here,” said curator Janet Carlile. The new, improved second floor will add not only to the museum but to the town, as well. A generous donation of display cases from the Museum of Civilization will help round out the second floor exhibit. The community and businesses have come forward to help with the project, as well. Plaintree Systems offered up some storage space to house the misplaced items from the collection. Having a large space to spread out and assess the items will be a lot easier than trying to do it within the museum, said Carlile. M&R Feeds is also providing a storage container that will be used to move the items. There are several opportunities for volunteers who would like to help, particularly on days in September when items are moved and several days in January when artifacts are moved back.

Pastor links Hunger Games to Bible stories What are the similarities, differences between Katniss and Jesus? Derek Dunn derek.dunn@metroland.com

untarily takes her younger sister’s place in the Hunger Games, a televised fight to the death in which two teenagers from each of the 12 Districts of Panem (similar to the 12 tribes of Israel) are chosen at random to compete. Katniss is something of a Jesus figure, according to Stone. She comes from extreme poverty to find herself in the corrupt and decadent Capitol (reminiscent of Jesus’ appearance in Jerusalem.) Katniss is a fierce defender of the meek and disenfranchised. Ancient class conflicts and segregation continue to play out in modern times, though today it tends to be a northern and southern hemisphere split. However, there is an important difference. Where Katniss is forced to commit acts of violence the pacifist Jesus would have turned the other cheek, Stone said. “She is forced to live in an environment where redemptive violence is necessary,� Stone said. “Jesus of the gospels would never agree to violence.� She also draws the link between bread as it appears in both books. Bread is the one food Katniss and other players are allowed to receive as a gift from viewers of the Hunger Games. She tastes the difference and knows which bread comes from which district. Jesus, too, shared and ate bread the night before his crucifixion. “That offering of bread - reflective of community and sustenance – is huge.� Evident in the Hunger Games is class struggle. The Capitol exploits the outer 12 districts by reducing them to one-resource or one-manufacturer regions. Many of those who live in the Capitol are vein and materialistic, and fail to see their complicity in the districts’ oppression and suffering. (Katniss’ father died years ago in a mining explosion.) It reflects modern reality where companies based in countries like Canada exploit indigenous populations through the privatization of water and clear cutting of forests to benefit mining operations in South America and elsewhere. Stone says practices like those that see Bangladesh garment factories burned, killing untold numbers of workers, would lead Jesus to social activism similar to turning over the tables in the market place. The series concludes with the theatre opening of the third book in The Hunger Games, Catching Fire on Nov. 22. Held at the Carp parish near the fairgrounds the series begins Monday, Sept. 23 at 7 p.m. Youths need not have read The Hunger Games, though it would be help them to contribute dur-

My sister Shannon suffered from a congenital heart disease, a condition that made it difficult for her to eat, breathe or move. She was so fragile that she spent the entire first year of her life at CHEO, so I ended up spending my days at the hospital with my parents and my sister. CHEO became my second home: it was where my family and I spent most of our time, where my sister went to preschool and where I made friends.

B M E V O N , Y A D I R F

I remember that the staff at CHEO always made time for me whether it was by saying hello, giving me a hug or taking me to the playroom, while my sister underwent various procedures. The nurses, especially, were my heroes; it was their caring words and gentle touch that carried my family through some very difficult days.

WITH SO MANY GREAT PRIZES IT’S HARD TO BELIEVE THERE’S MORE!

Unfortunately, two weeks before her fourth birthday, Shannon passed away. Her strength and resilience throughout her illness were exceptional and she always had a smile for me.

At three months of age, Ava was admitted to CHEO where she was diagnosed with failure to thrive, severe acid reflux and several food allergies. Failure to thrive is a condition that can have serious repercussions on a child’s stature, emotional and behavioral development. Ava required a hypoallergenic formula via continuous nasogastric feeds (a feeding tube placed in the nose) and a few medications to help settle her stomach. After a five week stay at CHEO, she was transitioned to thickened bottles and we were finally able to bring her home. Following her discharge, Ava continued to thrive with outpatient support from CHEO, and although she was smaller than most kids her age, she seemed to be on the upswing.

But one morning I found Ava sweating, trembling and difficult to arouse. That day Ava had the first of a few ambulance rides back to CHEO where she was recently diagnosed with ketotic hypoglycemia, a rare but serious form of Little did I know then that my husband and I would return to CHEO once we became parents. low blood sugar.

Several years later, inspired by the amazing nursing staff at CHEO, I became a nurse—and funnily, as part of my training in the Bachelor of Nursing, I worked on the same unit where my sister had been treated.

Unfortunately, once at home we noticed that something was wrong. Ava would have projectile vomiting after every single feed. No experience or education could have prepared us for the stress associated with having a sick child.

Monument honours county women Kidney Foundation walk Sept. 22 Community - Every fall, people come together for The Kidney Foundation of Canada’s Kidney Walk to support friends, neighbours or family members affected by kidney disease. This area’s walk will be held at Ma-Te-Way Park on Sunday, Sept. 22 with registration 10 a.m. and walk at 11

News – A monument to the memory of Renfrew County women who lost their lives to physical violence was the scene of a very special celebration Saturday in Petawawa. Family and friends of 16 women gathered for a ceremony of song, meditation and tribute, with candles lit in memory of those who lost their lives to murder and abuse. The inscription on the monument reads: To honour and grieve all women in Renfrew County murdered and abused by men. We, your sisters and brothers, remember and work for a world where women are respected and free.” TRIBUTE

The monument is a place of reflection and tribute on the Emerald Necklace Trail between Algonquin and Harry Street, with a view of the rapids on the Petawawa River. The monument was designed by Cormac artist/blacksmith Lydia Vanderstaal and owner/operator of Touch stone Masonry in Killaloe,Mary Crnkovich.

a.m. Participants including dialysis patients, transplant recipients, donor families, living donors, renal professionals and other supporters are united in their dedication to help kidney patients and their families, while raising awareness about kidney health and organ donation.

One in 10 Canadians has kidney disease, and millions more are at risk. Nearly 10,000 Ontarians depend on life-sustaining dialysis treatments several times a week, over 1,000 are waiting for a kidney transplant, and countless others live with reduced kidney function that may have gone undetected.

Mike Kohlsmith spoke in memory of his mother, Glenda, at Saturday’s dedication ceremony at the women’s monument in Petawawa. He and his sister also lit a candle honouring their mom who died in 1994. Karen Timm and Gail Marion of Garden Follies in Westmeath donated their time to assist with landscape design and planting. A special working group of the Renfrew County Committee for Abused Women spent six years and 600 meetings consulting, planning and fundraising for the monu-

ment. There was high praise for a long list of supporters, from numerous sponsors to host Town of Petawawa who warmly welcomed the project and helped to find an appropriate site for the monument. As one participant noted, “It’s amazing the power that art has to touch your heart.”

News – Recently published, the Barry Risk’s ‘The Thinner Blue Line’ takes the reader into the fascinating depths of border control. Factual without being dry, the book presents information, photos and anecdotes to demonstrate to the general public the “complexity and responsibility of border protection and how it impacts their individual lives in a constant basis.� Risk will officially be launching his book and will be signing copies on Sept. 21. It will be held at the Arnprior Book Store from 1 to 3 p.m. The event has come to fruition under the combined efforts of General Store Publish-

ing House, the author and the Arnprior Book Shop. “It is a tradition with books and book signing,� said Risk. “I’m looking forward to the people that ask me to sign (their book) that I know. I want to have the honour of signing their book and telling them how much I appreciate it. “There are quite a bit of people who like to have what they call first edition of signed copies from the author and I have no problem in participating in that,� he added. He’s excited to get out there with his book and share his stories with others. To his delight, positive feedback is trickling in from all sorts of places as far reaching as Hong Kong. “I’m getting more and more feedback... across Canada and

around the world,â€? he said. “I just got an email from a gentleman in Chilliwack, B.C. who is a retired major in the armed forces ‌ and I never met the gentlemen. “All of a sudden he got my email and he wanted to write me, thanking me for my book and how he felt I told the truth and gave him insight into the job that is custom.â€? This may be his first published book, but it won’t be his last. Risk is hard at work on his second book. “It’s more of a fictional book,â€? said Risk. “Its temporary title is called ‘Game Declared’ which as you can appreciate is related to customs. It’s the story of three people who represent three

generations of gatekeepers, border protector or whatever term you want to use. One taking place in the 12th century, one in the Elizabethan and one in the modern day.� It requires a lot of research to get the accuracy down pat, particularly the terminology his characters must use. He must be mindful not to use modern or anachronistic slang as well as the veracity of the locations, dress and customs. He enjoys the process as he is a bit of an amateur historian.

Organizers of the Brodie Armstrong Memorial (BAM) Golf Tournament held Aug. 31 at the Madawaska Golf Course are thrilled with the success of the event, which brought together more than 40 teams to raise funds for the Arnprior District High School music program. The event was held in memory of 21-year-old Brodie Armstrong, who was killed earlier this year in a stabbing in Arnprior. Armstrong was an avid musician and golfer and the event, which included a jam session after dinner, was a fitting tribute for the well-liked young man, said organizers. Above right, the organizers of the event, are, in front, the victim’s sister Candice Armstrong, and in back, Chris Nych, Ben Jones and Dean Brown. Above, Sumac Grove course winners are, Patrick Boudreau (kneeling) and, from left, Sean Saunders, Mike Nicholas and Shannon Nicholas.

Sports - The Arnprior Junior B Packers started out fairly strong but ran out of gas in the first game at home Saturday night versus the Gatineau Mustangs. The final score was 6-1 when the Packers took on the Mustangs at the Nick Smith Centre to wrap up the Eastern Ontario Junior B Hockey League Showcase Sept. 14. The score was 3-1 going into the third period and it was then that the young team just ran out of gas, said coach and general manager Bill Griese. “We’ve got an extremely young team with the exception of three veterans. Minor hockey players aren’t used to a full two-and-a-half hours on the ice against a team that is bigger, older and stronger,” he said.

John McLean scored the Packers’ lone goal. While the loss was not ideal, Griese was impressed with his young players. “I think the biggest and most pleasant surprise of the evening were the three young guys Colby Cochrane, Isaac Perreault and Jamie Prebble,” he said. All three are local and possess talent. “They’re going to be three kids to watch as they get older and bigger and stronger,” said Griese. While the team has been revamped, Griese said it’s “not exactly a total rebuild.” For the first time in his memory, the team is made up of 10 local players. “That’s the most I’ve had,” said Griese. The Packers face off against Almonte at the Nick Smith Centre this Friday, Sept. 20 at 8 p.m.

The event raised more than $2 million for cancer research earlier this month, making headlines across the city. But some might argue that the real success stories of Ride the Rideau were planted on bike seats at the start line that day.

Cheryl was supported by an army of wonderful people who have also contributed to the success of this day.â€? There was also special thanks to Richard Gill for supporting Babineau and contributing his beautiful work toward the prizes. Kathy Lindsay was also recognized “for doing such a marvelous job keeping the labyrinth in perfect condition for this dayâ€? and there was plenty of praise for many “good neighboursâ€? from coffee sponsor Neat Coffee to all who contributed prizes.

“Today we also want to acknowledge and thank our National Sponsors – KPMG and the Laura Mercier’s Ovarian Cancer Fund,� she said. “This year we are on the move. We are walking from coast to coast, running in Scotiabank marathons, climbing Mt Kilimanjaro and riding in the Laurentians. “Whatever you personally decide to do to contribute to the cause – together we are making great strides in bringing ovarian cancer into the spotlight.

“Joined by the likes of celebrities such as Angelina Jolie and Pierce Brosnan who have brought ovarian cancer to mainstream media, com-

“We can see the difference the funds raised have made – research has brought many answers, women know where to get help and people are learning to recognize risk factors but there is still so much unknown. “The TEAL movement has started and we are committed to keeping up the momentum, but we need your help. Don’t forget September is Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month – keep spreading the word. Our message this year is Know Teal – talk teal, share teal and wear teal! “Let’s Keep Advancing Forward in 2014. Please stay in touch and visit us often as there are so many exciting initiatives being planned for 2014,� she told the Burnstown gathering.

Film group night returns to O’Brien Theatre Spirituality and Community - Once again this fall the Arnprior O’Brien Theatre will be hosting Film Group Night at its beautiful heritage building in the heart of downtown Arnprior. This will be year number 14 for the popular Film Night series which features interesting and thought provoking cinema from around the world. As well, for the second year in a row the series Live from the Met will be made available, live opera streamed all the way from the Metropolitan Opera in New York City to Arnprior! Regulars of the theatre have

not only come to expect but to look forward to and appreciate the sight of friendly, outgoing owner Kevin Marshall greeting them at the door on film nights. Arnprior is fortunate to have the opportunity to view quality cinema in such an atmospheric, pleasant environment. The sterile, cookie cutter venues that we have all become accustomed to when we go out to the movies in the twenty first century do not hold a candle to the lovingly restored surroundings of the old Arnprior theatre. As an added bonus, owner Kevin Marshall has digitally up-

dated his screening equipment with 7.1 Dolby surround sound. One never needs to travel to Kanata again! As an added bonus for movie lovers in the month of September, The Arnprior Book Shop and the O’Brien Theatre will be cohosting an author signing with CBC personality and film critic Robert Fontaine on opening day of the first movie presentation. This will take place on Sunday afternoon, Sept. 29 at noon in the lobby of the theatre. Fontaine’s second book is called ‘Confessions of a Film

Since 1993 Fontaine has been the film critic for CBC’s popular drive home show All in a Day. His witty, irreverent and insightful comments and reviews have been enjoyed and looked forward to by many CBC listeners over these past twenty years. This will be an opportunity to meet with Fontaine and discuss cinema with a fellow movie buff as well as support an Arnprior arts venue.

Lifestyle – ‘Where do they get the energy?’ We often hear this said about a person who seems to have boundless energy to run their own life and yet to give to others both in their family and in the wider community. Does this person inspire us or make us suspicious of their reasons for contributing? Does our own service to others come from ego or from the source of a true spiritual energy? On Wednesday evening, Sept. 25, Joseph Clarkson, a recently retired high school principal and dynamic speaker across Canada will probe these issues. His topic will be Spirituality and

The Christian Meditation Groups from Ottawa and the two groups in Arnprior are sponsoring this thought provoking evening. There will be a free will donation and refreshments. Everyone is welcome.

Message from Queen’s Park

John YAKABUSKI MPP

www.johnyakabuski.com While you may have thought Ontario’s electricity policy couldn’t get any more bizarre, it just did. This week the Independent Electricity Systems Operator (IESO), under orders from the Liberal government, began paying wind operators to not produce electricity. So let’s get this straight; we’re now paying for something we’re not getting. Energy Minister Bob Chiarelli crowed that this is a great policy shift that is going to save Ontario about $200 million dollars a year. This is the kind of Liberal logic that has them on track to more than double Ontario’s debt since the Liberals took power in 2003. Now what Minister Chiarelli is referring to is that the deal they’ve made with wind producers will actually cost less than if we bought the electricity from them. Fair enough. I guess the question should be “how much would we save if we didn’t buy it at all?� His reasoning is like the person who goes out and buys something they don’t need, have no use for and can’t afford, but they bought it anyway because it was on sale. And since they bought it on sale, they go on bragging about all the money they saved. If they’d never bought it, they would have saved a lot more right? Those items are usually found in a yard sale a few years later selling for about 5% of that so-called good deal. This latest move by the Liberals is an admission that their Green Energy Act, and the exorbitant contracts they’ve bound you to through your hydro bills, was a huge mistake. Now that we know that wind power has been a colossal failure that cannot be depended on, why is this government intent on moving ahead with plans to triple the amount of wind power we have in this province? If you’re paying these people not to produce power, it just makes no sense. But that’s exactly what they intend to do. In fact Kathleen Wynne proclaimed that the Liberals will continue down this road because it’s the path of the future. You and I know it is the road to ruin. The big wind developers are getting rich and it is homeowners, small businesses and industry that are paying the price. A little understood portion of the electricity bill called the “global adjustment� is also driving up the cost, and was pegged at 8.72cents/kwh for the month of September. That 8.72 cents/kwh is the cost of honouring these ridiculous contracts to power developers. That’s over 3 times the cost of the power itself. It’s also now reflecting the cost of the Liberals gas plant cancellation scandal as well. This, while the average wholesale price of electricity in Ontario has been about 2.8cents/kwh in 2013. Their mismanagement and self-serving decisions will very likely see your electricity bill continue to rise. The cost of electricity continues to be one of the issues most frequently brought to my attention as I travel through the Valley and speak to constituents. The wrong-headed decisions that the Liberals continue to make, even when they’ve been proven wrong, only goes to show what I have said so many times; that satisfying their special interests, political friends and those that can keep them in power continues to be of greater importance to them than the welfare of Ontario’s economy and its citizens. The PC party has made it very clear that under a Tim Hudak led government this insanity would end. 0919 R0052067653

Twenty-acre field held many precious memories Lifestyle - It was always called the twenty-acre ďŹ eld. And yet Father said it was far more than twenty acres. He said if you counted the bush at the north end, you could add another couple acres to it. But we always called it the twenty-acre ďŹ eld.

R0012316171

It separated our farm from our neighbours the Thoms. Although they were no relation, we always called them Uncle Alec and Aunt Bertha. Children back in those days never called an adult by their ďŹ rst name, and so the parents of our best friends in Northcote were always called Aunt and Uncle. INTRODUCING The twenty NEW acres was always a hay ďŹ eld. Father said the soil was best for hay, and other crops were planted on the ďŹ elds beyond " " " " "! " " '"" the West Hill,

Mary Cook’s Memories MARY COOK

on our side, there were no exceptions. Father always said you could spit across our ďŹ elds, they were so narrow, but our farm ran from the Northcote Side Road, straight south and across the Bonnechere...this long narrow piece of farmland that had seen three generations of Father’s family live and die. But the twenty-acre ďŹ eld was more than just a ďŹ eld. When the hay had been taken off, you could see the path where dozens of times, we had walked, rode horseback, or taken the buggy in the summer and the cutter in the winter, over to the Thom’s homestead. When the hay had yet to be harvested, we walked close to the fence that was in constant need of repair, but both Uncle Alec and Father could see no reason

to ďŹ x it. “We don’t need a fence to tell us where our land lies,â€? Uncle Alec would say whenever the subject came up to prop up the bentover posts, and maybe replace the wiring. And so, most of the time the fence was either lying at on the ground, or so bent over, you could step across the wiring without touching a shoe to it. If I was on my way to my friend’s farm, across the twenty-acre ďŹ eld in the summertime, I walked close to the falling fence. I was sure if I walked through the hay; I would get lost and never see my mother again, because the crop, by mid-summer was far over my head. Being the meek child that I was, when I started out across the twenty-acre ďŹ eld to visit Velma, I would ask Mother to stand by the grape arbour, so that I could turn every 10 feet or so, wave to her, and make sure if any danger befell me, I could run for home. Only when I went through the gate, also badly in need of repair and never, ever did I see it closed, but always hanging open on one hinge, I left the twenty-acre ďŹ eld behind me,

and I would breathe a sigh of relief that I had once again made it safely. Coming home presented a problem though. My little friend Velma knew I was frightened of my own shadow, and so she would walk with me half-way through the ďŹ eld, and stand there as I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, home. And as soon as I would reach the grape arbour, I would turn and wave to Velma and she would return to her own home. I marvelled at how brave was my little friend Velma. In the wintertime, when the hay had long since been taken off, and only stubble remained, I would wait for the snow to come and cover the ďŹ eld with a white blanket. The ďŹ eld looked bigger then, I thought. As soon as there was enough snow to make the ďŹ eld passable, Father would take the team of horses, hitch them to the big atbottomed sleigh and make many trips back and forth across the ďŹ eld to make a path. It would be as straight as a die. Leading from our yard at the side of our house, and right over to the opening in the fence where the gate hung by a hinge.

Lifestyle - Rona Ambrose, Minister of Health, joined with Domenic Pilla, Shoppers Drug Mart president and CEO in the launch of the company’s Arthritis Screening program - a unique way for Canadians to work with a pharmacist to help detect arthritis early and manage their condition. An estimated one in six Canadians aged 15 years and older live with arthritis and its prevalence has a tremendous impact, translating into lost productivity, absenteeism and increased health care spending – costing an estimated $33 billion annually. �Our government supports initiatives that help Canadians better manage their health and improve their quality of life,� says Minister Ambrose. “We are pleased to have funded research that contributed to the development of this innovative new program that will improve the quality of life of Canadians living with arthritis.� The program was developed from research carried out at the Arthritis Research Centre of Canada with funding provided from the Government of Canada through the Canadian Institutes of Health Research. It shows how researchers, patients and the private sector can work together to provide innovative health solutions to Canadians. Pharmacists at more than 1,200 Shoppers Drug Mart stores across Canada will be providing arthritis screening and information to Canadians as part of a three-year partnership between Shoppers Drug Mart/Pharmaprix, Arthritis Consumer Experts and the Arthritis Research Centre of Canada. “Shoppers Drug Mart pharmacists are already actively involved in managing complex chronic diseases, like diabetes, heart disease and now arthritis,� says Pilla.

Lifestyle - Organizers have announced the fall daytime linedance schedule and there’s a new special offer this season that will help support local charities. Groups of five or more people signing up together can receive a special rate and donate the savings to the charity of their choice, says instructor Hyacinth Chatterton. The linedance group is known to support local charities and events and the new offer is in line with that history. “It suddenly struck me we could get a bit more community involvement if we offer a special deal to groups,” said Chatterton. She has been working with recreation officials in several communities to get everything in place for the fall season. Cost per individual is $10/class or $80 for the season. If five or more people join together the price will be reduced to $70 and the savings will be donated to the participant’s chosen charity. “All levels, all ages and both genders are welcome,” said Chatterton. “A dancing partner is welcome, but not a requirement. We look forward to your signing up for this popular activity, which is such-fun-to-do and so-good-for-you.”

Community – If your body was a car, your liver would be the engine. Your car can’t run without an engine and neither can your body and replacements for this vital organ can be hard to come by. That’s why the Canadian Liver Foundation is partnering with the LCBO this month to help raise funds for liver transplant research to benefit Ontarians of all ages living with liver disease that may one day need, or are already waiting for, transplants. Starting Sept. 15 the public can support the Canadian Liver Foundation by making a donation at any of the 635 LCBO stores throughout Ontario. Donation boxes for the Canadian Liver Foundation will be displayed at LCBO checkout counters until Oct. 12.

Broadhead Brewing Co.

HARVEST ALE is a smooth amber ale, packed full of freshly harvested local Cascade hops, giving it a warm citrus finish. Sixth generation farmers, the guys over at Lot 17 Hop Yard delivered their entire crop of Cascade LONG SHOT WHITE is a fresh, fruit flavoured wheat ale that is brewed to be hazy and brazen! A spirited, sweet and slightly spicy beer that perfectly mingles coriander overtones, this brew a favourite of the Broadhead crowd! BACKBONE STANDARD ALE. Don’t let the name fool you… it is a hearty, all grain golden ale that’s crisp, well-balanced and overflowing with flavour. Lightly hopped with a medium body leading to a refreshing, sweet finish.

HogsBack HOGSBACK VINTAGE LAGER is a European-inspired lager with high grade flavour due to us utilizing only world glass ingredients combining three malt types, unique Saaz hops and German lager yeast. VONDERBARRHAVEN BROWN is a European beer style brewed with slightly fire kilned malts giving it its signature brownish colour and a slight malty chocolate – somewhat nutty, caramelized flavour with a sweet aroma and a slightly more bitter ending in taste in our mouth. OKTOBERFEST KOKONUT PALE ALE is a spectacular beer injected with a dash of toasted coconut. A clear golden colour with the aroma first hinting of the delicious coconut sweet pale malt, citrus and a dash of piney hops. The taste is malty then citrusy then a lovely coconut flavour finishes this beer off ending mildly (not wildly) dry and slightly peppery.

Oktoberfest weekend! Come join the celebrations in Wunder-Barrhaven on Oktoberfest Ottawa weekend. Who will be roaming the festival grounds this year? Well straight from Sunnyvale Trailer Park we have CYRUS FROM M THE TRAILER PARK BOYS who ho will be entertaining the crowds. In addition to all the fantastic musik, k, Cyrus, Bavarian Beauties, sausagee and pretzel eating contests and of course, beer… we have a few moree surprises all to make this THE biggest est Bytown Bavarian Bash yet! Our great music and atmosphere, scrumptious Bavarian themed and traditional festival food and drink makes for a FAN-tastic weekend for everyone of all ages who joins us at Oktoberfest Ottawa 2013 the weekend of September 27th to the 29th!

GOLDEN beer that incorporates a blend of the best Canadian and Bavarian malts giving it a very smooth and mild body that balances the crisp, pleasant German hop finish. NUT BROWN has the scent of slightly roasted coffee and chocolate with the color of hazelnuts. A much richer dark hue it is impressively mild and smooth to the palate, making it a very refreshing glass of beer.

Waupoos Cider This scrumptious cider is made from late harvest and European cider apples, semi-sweet and sparkling. Nicely balanced, it gives its drinkers a full fruity body with a light finish that is refreshing to your taste buds..

The history and folklore of cats is quite interesting Ian Stupp Pet Talk

Lifestyle - It has been estimated the household feline pet has been around for 4,000 years. In 1889 archaeologists at Ben Hasan in Central Egypt uncovered the mummified remains of a cat said to have been from around 800 BC. In further digs approximately 180,000 cat remains were discovered. The rich soil in Egypt surrounding the Nile valley and the delta created the best fertile land for farming therefore allowing the cat to thrive on corn and mice. By 1998 in Britain one in five homes had at least one cat, approximately six million cats and five times that number in the United States. It has been said that in North America there are more cats in our homes than dogs. Cats have had a long history from being worshipped in Egypt to China where the Chinese people placed pottery with a cat figure outside

their homes and cat pictures inside their homes to ward off poverty. It was in ancient China that black cats became known to possess bad luck however the British believed the opposite. In Japan cats were part of the economic relationship with the silk industry by eradicating the silk farmers of rats and mice. Cats have also been associated with vampires and witchcraft and have been written about by such notable writers like Lewis Carol who in 1865 wrote Alice’s Adventures In Wonderland. In 1981 Andrew Lloyd Weber wrote the musical Cats that was based on T.S. Eliot’s book Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats and let’s not forget about the famous television cat Morris. BELIEVE IT OR NOT

The Manx cat has no tail and legend has it that back in biblical times Noah was

in such a hurry to close the doors to the ark that he accidentally cut off their tails leaving them out in the rain to fend for themselves (now we know why some cats don’t like water). Further legends has it that the reason cats and dogs don’t get along is because the cats resented that the dogs were kept safe on Noah’s ark. The Ragdoll owes its name to the fact that it collapses in a limp heap, like a ragdoll, when it is picked up. The Main Coon cat, which is said to be the largest domestic cat, can weigh as much as 40 pounds. Legend also has it that the Main Coon cat comes from a mix of domestic cat and a raccoon. Ian owns and operates Wags & Whiskers Dog & Cat Grooming and Puppy Kindergarten at 118 John St. N., Arnprior.

And, that is what was achieved at the Carleton Place Dragon Boat Festival on Saturday, Sept. 7. The festival was a first for the Draggin’ Behinds dragon boat team from Arnprior and they were, yes, the talk-of-the-town in their 400 metre events competing against some of the best in Eastern Ontario. Fortysix dragon boat teams participated in this year’s Fall 400s and the Draggin’ Behinds

SUBMITTED

The Draggin’ Behinds are all smiles at the Sept. 7 Carleton Place Dragon Boat Festival. made us all proud by breaking best times (1.48.59, 1.48.03 and 1.47.20 minutes respectively) in all three events. In fact, they won two of their three dragon boat races. The last race to the finish was especially memorable and prompted

great applause from friends, family and from the spectators gallery when the Draggin’ Behinds defeated Blizzard in a Boat, Showboat, and Chicks with Sticks’ in a time of 1.47.20 minutes, their best time ever. Once again, Arnprior

and community at its best. What’s next? The Kingston Dragon Boat Festival on Saturday, Sept. 22. Stay tuned for more Dragon Boat news from the Draggin’ Behinds and the Arnprior Dragon Boat Club.

Here is a beautiful poem written for “Richard” by Nina McClure

Our Friend Richard Here is a little story of our good friend Richard Wright. God decided to take him early one summer night.

He was a nature lover always in the bush with his dog Blue running ahead of him giving the deer a little push.

Richard has two brothers their names are Darryl and Gregg. These boys were bonded together from birth to present day.

I must have done something right in the first 35 years of my life to have met and become friends with each and everyone of you, so all I can do now is live the rest of my life in the very same way. THANK YOU TO ONE AND ALL, Harold, Melanie, Mackenzie, and Morgan

CLR468121

0919.clr469415

Richard had a heart of gold as big as it could be He loved his family, friends, pets and kids He lived life as simply as it should be.

Hugs to all of you from our family, Nancy, Dave (Joan), Gregg (Julie), Darryl

Where do I begin? I can’t describe the overwhelming gratitude that Melanie, Mackenzie, Morgan and I are feeling after the amount of support you have all shown us. Don, Ralph, Paul, Ed M, Eddy S, Kyle, Steve and all the young lads at the ferry; thank you for organizing such a wonderful party. I can only imagine all the work you must have put in, in such a short time. Only a group of dedicated and caring lads like you could have put on a party like that for little old me.

These past weeks will stay with me forever, not as a reminder of a tragic event, but as a reminder that the community that I live in is truly blessed and has touched my heart and soul forever.

He cherished his mother Nancy and his father Dave The love they have for family is truly unexplained.

CLR469429

THANK YOU

Thanks to everyone for all of the donations. Whether dropped off at the ferry, made online, sent in the mail, or made directly at the party, thank you just doesn’t cut it; we are forever in your debt.

A man of many trades, Richard truly was. There wasn’t much he couldn’t do when it came to cars and trucks.

CARD OF THANKS

Thanks to Eddie and Sara McCann and to all others who helped organize the silent auction and not to forget the businesses and people who donated to the auction. To the community, family, friends, co-workers past and present, ferry clientele, and all others I may have missed, thank you for your kind words of encouragement.

He always was an outdoorsman hunting and mud bogging was his life. If you were lucky you could hear him four wheeling in the night.

So this is our story of our good friend Richard Wright. Who God loved so dearly, and took one warm summer night.

The family of the late Dominic Peplinski would like to express their sincere thanks to our family, friends and neighbors for their love and support during our time of sorrow. To the paramedics and police. To Don Goulet and staff. To Father McNamara and Father Rick and alter boys. To Bernadette Peplinski and Rose Valliquette for the readings. To the Helferty family for the lovely music. To the pall-bearers Rob Peever, John Neumann, David Peever, Michael Peplinski, Larry Peplinski and Brian Cunningham. To the Douglas C.W.L for the lovely lunch. To everyone for their calls, cards, flowers, charitable donations, masses, food and prayers. Thank you & God Bless Julie Peplinski and family

Richard leaves behind 3 orphaned little pets that he loved dearly & I am very happy that they have found very good homes. Thanks to Tammy & Mark Limlaw for adopting little “Blue” the dog, he went everywhere with Richard, was his best little buddy. Kevin Gray (Jenah) for adopting little 4-month old “Smoky” the kitten. Then there’s special little “Bobby” the cat that loves to hunt, go 4-wheeling, go for walks & go for drives in the car which I am going to keep for myself.

BETTY CARROLL IS TURNING 80 YEARS YOUNG! September 23rd, 2013 Wishing you all the best as you celebrate your big day! Love and best wishes from your husband Tom, and your family, Barb & Keith Burgess ~ Lisa & Dwight Margaret & Darwin Ziebarth ~ Blair; Sarah, Mark, & Kyla Hoogendyk; Brett & Trent, Kevin & Liz Carroll Patricia & Steve Burgess ~ Corey, Cody & Kelsie Tom & Lois Carroll ~ Matthew & Emma Christine & Peter Devlin ~ Tyler & Rachel

Your memory is our keepsake With which we’ll never part God has you in His keeping We have you in our hearts. Missing you always Michael, Karen, Peter, Allison and families

As with most, Our mother was the corner stone of our family. It’s hard to believe it has been a year since she left us suddenly to be with the love of her life. Over time we learned she was the one who laid the foundation for what we, as her children cherish the most. The love of family, being part of you community, good friends and enjoying life. There is not a day that goes by where we are not thinking of her. Or that she is not part of one of our conversations. Our daily actions are a reflection of how she raised us to be honest, to be supportive of one another and care for each other. She enjoyed the uniqueness of her brothers and sisters, What she learned from her children, but most of all the joy her grandchildren brought to her. One of the best parts of any visits to mom’s house would be the time sitting around the kitchen table catching up on what was new, playing cards or enjoying one of her home cooked meals. There might of even been a sip of rum along the way. Our mother taught us to live life to the fullest and enjoy a good laugh and we thank her for that. As it has before, the power of her love will carry us through. Mom, we all miss you Love Michael, Karen, Peter,

CROZIER, Harry In sad but loving memory of a dear husband, father, father-in-law, grandfather and great grandfather Harry who passed away on Sept. 17, 1993. We will never fully understand, Just why you had to leave, The loss is still so painful, we often cry and grieve. Memories can bring happiness, When together we recall, Special memories shared in love, So treasured by us all. Memories can bring sadness, with pain and sorrow too, We long for things to be the same, As when they were shared with you. But the joys we shared together, Are the memories we hold dear. So please dear Lord, Take this message to Harry in Heaven above. Tell him how much we miss him, And give him all our love. Lovingly remembered and sadly missed, Millie and Family MARTIN In memory of Shirley Martin Sept 19, 2011 Time speeds on, two years have passed Since death its gloom, its shadow cast Within our home where all seemed bright, and took from us a shining light. We miss that light, and ever will, Her vacant place there’s none to fill. Down here we mourn, but not in vain, For up in Heaven we will meet again.
