wealth of advice to teenagers on how to deal with a difficult situation and get out of their predicament.

“Yes, it’s embarrassing [what happened] but go online, talk to police, talk to your parents, talk to somebody about it,” Borton stressed at a news conference held at the detachment office in Brighton September 18.

Constable Karen German, the detachment’s community services officer, will be delivering the same message during her regular visits to area high schools. Her target audience will be Grade 9 students “because it’s a new environment for them and it’s a new experience—that’s where the peer pressure starts.”

German said the web site is also meant to be used by youth and parents “as a prevention tool,” by making them aware of the consequences that can result from sexting—the sharing of explicit messages and images usually via cellphone.

“The OPP averages three to four incidents a week across Ontario [within its] jurisdiction,” Borton said.

The local detachment has conducted three investigations since January; two involved cyber bullying and the other the transmission of a video.

Borton said, “There’s a lot more pressure put on young persons to fit in and be part of a group.”

experienced years ago has “escalated” with the technology now in use, German said.

An embarrassing act back then “wasn’t something that was broadcast and put online and made public within seconds,” Borton said.

Teenagers should consider in advance what the person receiving explicit messages or photos could do with them, “especially if there’s a breakdown in a relationship,” Borton said. “They could be sending it to a large number of people and not just an individual.”

Charges of child pornography can be laid in cases involving the manufacture, possession or distribution of naked or sexually explicit pictures of individuals under 18 years of age.

Borton said it’s possible to remove inappropriate pictures from the Internet but it can be difficult and is not always entirely successful. “There may be copies [and they] can resurface,” he said.

“There is no harassment involved in a lot of these,” Borton said, because what was caught on camera “was willingly done.”

“It’s about educating the parents as well, about how to talk to their kids, making sure they’re aware of what they’re doing, but sometimes the parents are just so oblivious,” German said, “and not making sure they’re using [their cellphones, tablets and other electronic devices] properly.”

this is an evolving situation,” offered Kerr. “I received email correspondence indicating there are significant events going on at the Brighton Legion that will effect this decision.”

After accusations, counter-accusations and two letters to the editor printed in consecutive editions of the Independent—one each from the Legion Cenotaph Committee and the Legion president—the entire Brighton Legion executive resigned. The local branch was assumed by regional command and elections were held last week.

During question period, later in the meeting, a local resident pleaded with council to “please call a cease fire, finish the project and honour those who gave their all.”

“Put personalities aside and finish this tribute to our fallen warriors,” she said. “We do not want a cloud of discord hovering over this hallowed site.”

“We only voted not to make a decision tonight,” explained Vandertoorn.

“The notice of motion is coming forward and will be dealt with at the next meeting.”

Douglas attended a council meeting on September 3, when he explained how the trio of “citizen volunteers did the spade work,” deciding materials, design, cost, creating a business plan and initiating contact with Veterans Affairs Can-

ada, in an effort to help fund the project. But the committee approved by council—Rittwage and Rowley, along with Douglas and staff support— was a deal breaker.

“We had a three-person

$9,900 in fines for buying hunting licences illegally News - Brighton - Two brothers have been fined a total of $9,900 for unlawfully purchasing moose and deer hunting licences.

Eric Thompson, of Colborne, and Bruce Thompson, of Burlington, Vermont, USA, pleaded guilty to six counts each of buying a licence tag for an ineligible person.

The court heard that over a period of three years, Eric Thompson purchased resident deer and moose licences for his brother Bruce who is not a resident of Ontario. Bruce Thompson’s moose licences were also used in the adult moose lottery system to enable his group to reach the guaranteed group size required to obtain adult moose tags.

Justice of the Peace Joanie Glover heard the case in the Ontario Court of Justice in Brighton, on September 12, 2013.

Legislation began evolving in the 1990s stitutes a closed meeting, including on events leading up to a February city council meeting where he was replaced as Sudbury’s private meetings investigator,” wrote MacDonald. “While the firm that replaced him found no evidence that an improper meeting was held beforehand, Marin disagrees.”

According to Sancton, when closeddoor meeting legislation was evolving in Ontario in the 1990s and early 2000s, the goal was to ensure city councillors didn’t hold closed-door meetings where they would argue and debate issues, which would later be rubber stamped in open meetings with little discussion.

He contends Marin is extending the reach of the legislation to the point that local politicians can’t solicit each other for support on issues without potentially falling afoul of the rules.

In the Northern Life report, Sancton says that was never the intent of the

meetings law in Ontario. Being able to talk to one another about issues they are passionate about is a key part of the way government works at the federal, provincial and local level. It also makes getting consensus on bigger issues far more difficult. And that makes for bad government.

“I find it hard to believe that anybody would think the intent of the act was to prevent councillors from talking to each other about municipal business outside of a meeting,” Sancton said. “If that were the interpretation, that would lead to bad municipal government … I believe councillors have to talk to each other before meetings [because] that’s the way the political process works.”

An email sent by a Brighton resident last week to every member of municipal council expressed “concerns on the transparency provided by Council” and included an invitation for individual replies “as to whether [they] would support

having the Ontario Ombudsman assume the role of private meetings investigator for the municipality. This would not only show the residents our council is committed to transparency, it would also show they are being fiscally responsible since this is a free service provided by the ombudsman.”

News - Brighton - A notice of motion filed by Councillors John Martinello and Mary Tadman at last week’s municipal council meeting failed to receive enough support to be debated that night.

At issue was the phase two cenotaph project, seemingly on hold because nobody can agree on who should, or should not, sit on the committee. The proposed resolution recommends including Ian Douglas, Dave Wyndham and Ken Birch, all members of the phase one group, who successfully oversaw the installation of a new cenotaph, walkway, flagpoles and lighting at Memorial Park in little more than one year, along with Martinello and “members of staff mutually agreed upon by council and the committee.”

Mayor Mark Walas appealed to council to deal with the notice of motion immediately, “and put it behind us.” But he didn’t get the required twothirds majority vote as required by the municipal Procedural Bylaw.

Five votes were needed but, in a recorded vote, only Walas, Martinello, Tadman and Councillor Tom Rittwage said “yea.” Deputy-mayor Craig Kerr and Councillors Emily Rowley and Mike Vandertoorn were opposed.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Wyley cheers the pension evolution

Dear Editor, Last week’s Globe & Mail contained an article praising Alberta’s “pension evolution” written

by Messrs. Robson and Laurin of the C.D. Howe Institute. I wish to call persons outside the public sector realm: “Persons Observing Obvious Rip-offs.” (P.O.O.R. in other words.)

You wouldn’t know it from the racket that can be set up when change is suggested, but there are many more cheesed off “P.O.O.R.’s” than there are “Rippers.” Until recently, however, no politician had the

temerity to suggest that the party might have to wind-down! Alberta and New Brunswick are two provinces which have politicians ready to bite the bullet and dictate new terms to counter defined benefit pension plans and try to modify the beleaguered P.O.O.R’s contributions to public service workers. (And to lower future workers’ contributions as well.)

One sentence in the article titled “Public-Sector Retirement Plans” captures all that was and is wrong: “Changing demographics and economic environments have exposed

the governance and design failings of traditional defined-benefit publicsector plans.”

This innocent-looking mouthful deserves all of our attention.

Renewed emphasis must be gained by the P.O.O.R. who need to persuade Ontario and federal politicians to get with the new realities. Let’s flesh out that all-important single sentence.

“Changing demographics and economic environments”: Ask an actuary how much EXTRA his insurance company needs to accumulate in order to “annuitize”

folks who are living much longer than their parents. Have you checked the interest rates that borrowers are offering their clients? Those returns on investment are vastly lower than what was “planned” a decade ago.

“Exposed the governance and design failings of traditional definedbenefit public-sector plans”: “Governance” refers to the folks who dole out the loot. Unfortunately, it wasn’t “their” money. They were in on the take, not only didn’t really care, but actually benefitted from their own generosity. If you get the same increase (or more) than you are doling out, and it’s “not your money,” where’s the incentive to be prudent with taxpayer dollars?

Brings a whole new meaning to the phrase: “Give ’er”!

The term “design failings” acknowledges that letting people

retire in their fifties, encouraging them in fact with generous pensions, is, in a word, STUPID. The math was all wrong my son. There wasn’t enough money in the pot in the first place, and then everyone has the audacity to live decades longer than originally forecast! (Especially people who didn’t work in mines or dangerous, tiring, tedious industry.)

The facts of the magic sentence are irrefutable. Nobody wants to give up something that was granted in an earlier fit of generosity (read lunacy).

But the good life, envied for so long

by Mr. and Mrs. P.O.O.R., has to be modified. It’s not easy; most of the people effected are neighbours, sons and daughters-in-law, buddies and friends. They don’t want to hear this news and no one is comfortable delivering it. But somebody’s got to do it, and if Ms. Wynne and Mr. Harper are reluctant to legislate the changes, it is imperative that we demand new legislators. Detroit awaits the alternative.

Assad Survives

Editorial - It was already looking likely that President Bashar al-Assad’s regime would survive—it has had the upper hand militarily in the Syrian civil war for at least six months now—but the events of the past two weeks have made it virtually certain.

Syria has already complied with the two initial demands of the Russian-American deal concluded over Assad’s head last week. It has signed the Chemical Weapons Convention, and it has given a list of all Syria’s poison gas facilities and storage depots to the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons.

That means the United States cannot attack it for at least a year.

President Barack Obama’s ability to order such an attack was already in doubt because of opposition in Congress.

Now he could not bomb without endangering UN inspectors, who will be all over the regime-controlled parts of Syria by November to take control of the estimated thousand tonnes of chemical weapons. Syria has a year to destroy them all, and until and unless it fails to meet that deadline, bombing is out of the question.

Even if there are delays, the United States will be uniquely ill-placed to use them as the pretext for an attack, as it is far behind schedule itself. In 1997 the U.S. agreed to destroy the 31,000 tonnes of sarin, VX, mustard gas and other lethal gases that it owned within ten years.

That’s thirty times as much as Syria has, but ten years should have been enough.

It wasn’t. In 2007 Washington asked for five more years to get rid of all its poison gas, the maximum extension allowed under the Chemical Weapons Convention. It didn’t meet that deadline either, so last year it announced a new deadline: 2021. Given its own record, the U.S. will find it hard to use Syrian delays as an excuse for resurrecting its bombing threats.

The civil war will probably continue during the coming year, and possibly for a good deal longer. Assad’s troops have been winning back territory in the centre of the country, but they have yet to make much progress in the north, the south or the east. They lack the numbers to finish the job now, but the tide is running in their direction.

Gwynne Dyer

It’s time for another David

Close to a thousand separate rebel units are now operating in Syria, but there is no unified rebel army. The armed groups can be roughly divided into jihadists (many of them foreign) who want to create an Islamic caliphate in Syria, and more moderate groups who originally took up arms hoping to create a democratic Syria freed from the Baath Party’s tyranny.

Most of the less radical groups want an Islamic republic too, but they are repelled by the extremism of the jihadists.

They hoped the West would destroy Assad’s forces and put them in power instead (while keeping the jihadists out), and they are now very angry at the United States for letting them down. But they are also deeply disappointed, for the realists among them can see no other way to win this fight.

Many of these fighters would now be open to a regime offer of a ceasefire, an amnesty, and a gradual transition to a less corrupt and repressive political system, and the Baathist regime is likely to make such an offer soon (whether it means it or not). It would not neutralise the jihadists and restore peace to the country, but it might seduce enough of the other rebels to shift the military balance sharply in Assad’s favour.

Much cruel fighting would remain to defeat the jihadists, but at least the country would emerge intact. Or the war may just go on and on, ending eventually in partition. But at least we have been spared the spectacle of the United States and its sidekicks attacking yet another Muslim country, only to realise in the end (as in the case of the imaginary “weapons of mass destruction” in Iraq) that its excuse for doing so was false.

The pretext this time was going to be Assad’s use of poison gas against his own people. But the timing was weird. (UN inspectors had just arrived in Damascus when nerve gas was fired at the rebel-held eastern suburbs.) The target was pointless. (Why civilians, not rebel fighters?) And why would Assad use a weapon that might trigger Western bombing when he was already winning the war without it?

Now the Russians are saying (off the record, so far) that the serial numbers of the rockets that delivered the nerve gas reveal that they did not belong to the Syrian army. They were made in Russia in 1967 and sold to Yemen, Egypt and Libya’ s Colonel Gaddafy—who filled some of them with nerve gas.

He had about a thousand tonnes of the stuff.

A lot of Gaddafi’s arsenal went missing after he was overthrown two years ago, sold off by the victorious rebel militias. Some of the nerve gas-filled rockets could easily have ended up in Syria, in rebel hands, and the temptation to use them in order to trigger Western military intervention would have been hard to resist.

If that is really the case, then President Obama should be even more grateful to Moscow for saving his bacon.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

“Secret trials in secret places” Dear Editor, We like to think we have a legal system in Canada which protects us from arbitrary arrest and imprisonment, part of our civil rights; they make us superior to countries like Syria and Iran, right?

Not so. We have a special card called “a Security Certificate” which can be played when someone has been tortured and the evidence would not be allowed in an open court of law. CSIS has admitted that if evidence gleaned from torture were excluded Canada’s security certificate process would collapse. It would also embarrass our government and bring into question, that since we deem torture to be a necessary part of law enforcement, we are then no different from the places we have sent these men to be rendered.

In the third challenge to the security certificate process, we are told neither the prisoner nor his lawyer can be witness, or know the evidence against him, that the challenge will be heard in secret, at a secret location, presumably with curtains drawn lest the light of day intrude. If it cannot stand the light of day, it probably “cannot stand the light of day” and should be thrown out with the garbage.

To hold someone in prison for a decade or more without charges is something “other countries” do, the USA for instance ironically in the occupied part of Cuba while constantly harping on Cuba’s human rights record. And, of course, Iran and Syria etc.

By Lewis Zandbergen

Editorial - This is a make believe invoice from a make believe company: The ABC Supply Co., Charges for services from August 1, 2013, to September 1, 2013, - $246.91 This is how I would like to reply: To whom it may concern, Attached is my cheque in the amount of $244.90.

We no longer use pennies so I’ve rounded it down to 90 cents the same way your favourite fast food shops do; the other adjustments are to recover my costs of doing business with you.

How I calculated my charges: cheque, 15 cents; security envelope 20 cents; stamp 65 cents; my time $1.00. I figure my time is worth at least minimum wage which is $10.25 an hour. It took me only seconds to open your invoice, so I’m willing to forego charging you for it; I needed a blast from my inhaler but because that was an acquired expense before your invoice arrived, I won’t calculate that into my adjustment.

However, I may need to restock if the invoices keep climbing regardless of denying myself the little perks I’ve earned after a half century of labour.

After I recovered from the shock of the almost monthly increase, I sat down, wrote you a cheque, inserted it into the envelope, sealed the envelope, affixed the address labels and a stamp and took it to the post office. I’m just a working stiff and can’t justify the capital expense of sorting and addressing machines but if I could I’d charge you a debt retirement and capital expense fee. I didn’t charge for the delivery this time because I was in town anyway on other business, however, in future you may be charged for my gasoline and, of course, a further hourly charge would apply for the time it took me to get there and back.

Thanks, Joe B. Everyman Don’t you just wish we could really do this? Well, you could; you’d be the David to their Goliath … but if I remember my Sunday school lessons correctly, that story had a happy ending didn’t it; well, no, not for Goliath ….

Lately I’ve been getting really steamed by banks, cable and satellite companies and almost every other service provider for tacking on that extra for just sending you a paper invoice. For a couple of years now we’ve been urged by banks to switch to their online services. I refuse, so I’m charged a couple of dollars for these gougers to mail me a paper statement.

It’s high time we objected to this constant “nickle and diming” excuse for another charge, and another and another.

I mean you expect to pay for the oil and gas you consume; ditto for your electrical supply. Same thing for banking, cable and satellite services.

Soon they’ll be charging admission

Most people who know me know how much I despise our provincial power company but the banks have jumped on the bandwagon and have also found ways to extract a few more pennies from our pockets.

While thousands of words could be devoted to this subject, let’s concentrate on the banks this time around. The following excerpt is taken from a 2012 CTV news report.

“Combined, Canada’s five largest banks recorded a $7.8 billion profit in the third quarter of 2012 alone, soaring past expectations and recording a 45 per cent increase from a year earlier.

“All five banks boosted their dividends as a result of the strong numbers.

“The Royal Bank reported the highest numbers … $2.24 billion in earnings … up from $1.29 billion in the same period one year earlier.

“Total revenue for TD was $7.76 billion, compared to $6.9 billion a year earlier. … “… TD Bank … raised its dividend by five cents to 77 cents and said income rose to $1.7 billion in Q3, up from $1.49 billion a year earlier.

“The CIBC also reported gains on Thursday, saying its net income for the third quarter of 2012 was $841 million, up from $591 million a year earlier.

“On Tuesday, the Bank of Nova Scotia announced it was raising dividends by 3.6 per cent, to 57 cents per share. That followed news that the bank had made a $2.05 billion profit.

“The Bank of Montreal also reported positive news for its shareholders on Tuesday, announcing dividends were rising 2.8 per cent to 72 cents a share, based on a $970-million Q3 profit.”

Published Thursday, August 30, 2012* That’s from last year folks; betcha numbers are up for 2013.

But apparently millions/billions in profit each year are not enough. To justify their rapaciousness, banks, as well as many other service and commodities suppliers use the current ecology boom to line their pockets. They claim they want to protect the environment and save trees; really? If you want to save trees put some of your millions/billions in profits into planting trees. If you already do that, great; do even more!

Although I can’t imagine too many people are still without computers and Internet capabilities, those who aren’t must shell out for something they have no control over. And many, myself included, refuse to display their banking information for all to see. If that makes me a Luddite or a troglodyte, so be it.

Don’t the authorities always warn, “Once it’s on the ’net, it’s there forever?”

Where is our David? *It wasn’t easy but I resisted adding hyphens to CTV’s compound adjectives.

It would be inappropriate and unprofessional for any discussion on items of a confidential nature or legal matter that would include any discussion by council at any open meeting of council. Therefore, when questioned at the September 16 council meeting regarding the receipt of confidential information, I simply replied, “No,” in an effort to indicate it was not an item for discussion.

“Ticking time bombs” pose threat

Dear Editor, Brighton’s two major rail crossings are ticking time bombs. Which impatient driver will be the igniter and when is yet to be written. Daily I witness motorists who, having waited for a freight or passenger train to roll through, immediately start to proceed as soon as the gates can be cleared— despite the still flashing red warning lights!

It is not unusual, in fact it is common, for a second train to be approaching even as the gates rise.

The flashing lights are the main attention factor. Motorists must wait until they cease flashing.

Who is responsible to resolve this dangerous daily occurrence? Council, CN, CPR, the Transportation Safety Board of Canada?

The loss of the life of an errant driver and possible passengers is cause enough for serious concern, however, what if a freight train was to derail because of such an avoidable incident, one made up of numerous tanker cars?

Recent history graphically points out what kind of disaster could occur.

The public must demand immediate action to avert such an event.

Quinte SailAbility delivers their message to students

By Ray Yurkowski

News - Brighton - As part of the Accessibility Awareness Day, held last week in Brighton, Quinte SailAbility officials took their message to all three

“That’s what the program is all of the local elementary schools, Spring Valley, Brighton and Smithfield, to about, eliminating the disability,” proshow how adaptive technology has gram co-founder and president Dennis made sailing available to all, regard- (Fletch) Fletcher told the students.

“With special equipment to assist, less of age or degree of disability. anyone can learn, sail or race. The program delivers self-esteem, social interaction and wellness as well as providing safe volunteer opportunities for kids.”

“We tell our students, ‘on the water

there is no speed limit, so why limit yourself?’” he added.

Founded in 2001, SailAbility serves the greater Quinte area out of the CFB Trenton Yacht Club and has grown to be one of the largest in the province.

The club is affiliated with the national Ablesail network, which includes membership of 17 programs, with four in development, across Canada.

“For persons with a disability, the

sense of freedom and independence associated with sailing is unrivalled,” says the Ablesail web site. “Sailing enables those with disabilities to enrich their lives and build confidence in a way no other similar activity can.”

When it came time for questions, one student, at Brighton Public School, wondered about logistics.

“How did you get the sailboat into the gym?” she asked.

Home is where your family is.

Many people live far from an aging parent.

still participate; neighbourhood stewards open up their garage, porch or yard for the day for the rest of the neighbourhood to drop off donations. This also allows Gleaners to allocate their canvassing volunteers to other neighbourhoods as needed.

“It keeps us hopping that day; it’s a big day,” Quinlan said.

For those wishing to contribute but who don’t have the time to volunteer, of course food donations are the next best way to get involved. Staples such

as peanut butter, apple juice, canned tuna, pasta and pasta sauces, baby food and vegetables are all needed, and can be left on doorsteps beginning at 12 noon on October 6 to be picked up by volunteers.

“This is a one-time event we do, and it is the lifeline for our food donations,” Quinlan said.

“It is so important that the community comes together as one driving unit to help their neighbours in need.”

Gleaners Food Bank has seen

a 15 per cent increase of need for services this year, and Quinlan said the organization has already spent $26,000 on food this summer, and spent over $78,000 on food in 2012. Gleaners Tri-county warehouse distributed 860,000 kilograms of food in 2012, supporting over 11,000 adults and 7,000 children.

For more information on the food drive, and to get involved, call Gleaners at 613-962-9043, or visit their web site at <www. gleanersfoodbank.ca>.

lor Mike Vandertoorn. “However, I would certainly support any opportunity for the municipality to assist in remediating those boulevards. We have the equipment and it wouldn’t take a whole lot of time.”

“I think it’s important to understand that municipal property is just that,” added Mayor Mark Walas.

“Residents have to respect that.”

Walas asked public works director Andrew Drzewiecki if any documentation exists to support permission allegedly given by a former municipal employee.

“No,” said Drzewiecki. “We went as far as contacting the person who supposedly agreed to the alteration on Raglan Street and he couldn’t recall giving any such permission. As far as the other location, on Stephen Street, we are not aware that anyone contacted us.”

“Once we have a bylaw in place, it will be enforceable,” he added.

“But I believe no alterations to the boulevards should be done without municipal approval.

“Our main concern is safety, but

we don’t want to ban any alterations people would like to make and each case should be looked at individually.”

Walas pointed to similar bylaws at Cobourg and Kingston.

“Perhaps we could use those as reference items when we look at it,” he said.

There are two methods to determine what a hom-

eowner actually owns in Brighton. In most cases, the municipal right-ofway is 33 feet from the centre of the road. The measurement will indicate an approximate location of the front property line. The other is the location of the water shut-off valve. They’re located at the front property line, particularly in the new subdivisions.

News - Brighton - At last week’s council meeting, a legal opinion from municipal lawyers in regard to residents altering boulevards was moved into the open-session agenda.

The opinion came as a result of complaints received regarding the state of the boulevard at an address on Stephen Street. At their regular meeting in July, municipal council heard about sod being removed and replaced by stones at that location and another on Raglan Street. The lawyers suggest sending letters to the homeowners advising them of a contravention of the provincial Trespass of Property Act as well as preparing a municipal bylaw to deal with the problem.

“I do see it being a danger,” said Councillor Tom Rittwage. “But it’s difficult to comprehend how we could give somebody permission to put stones along the boulevard in one case. Now we have to go back to tell him to move them.”

“It’s unfortunate,” said Council-

News - Belleville - Hallowe’en may be a month away, but trick or treaters of a different kind will be coming to area residences on October 6.

Volunteers with Gleaners Food Bank—an expected 300 of them—will be combing the city, canvassing doorto-door in support of the largest Gleaners Food Bank food drive of the year.

Now running for 18 years, the one-day food drive typically aims to raise about six months worth of foodstuffs, which equates to about 12 tons of food. The drive raised about 14 tons last year, and Gleaners director of operations Susanne Quinlan was highly complimentary of the volunteers and the community that helped make it happen in 2012.

“I don’t have such a hard job, because we do have such a caring community,” she said.

On October 6, starting at noon, volunteers will congregate in downtown Belleville’s Market Square before embarking on four city buses donated by the City of Belleville to neighbourhoods across the community. The goal is to canvas every neighbourhood in the city, but there are ways for the community to make it easier on the organization and volunteers.

One of those ways is to become a volunteer, as not only are roughly 300 needed to help canvas, but an additional 50 are needed to help unload buses and sort donations at the Gleaners facility throughout the day. Additionally, a new volunteer role created this year would allow some volunteers to stay home and

Looking for some everyday heroes

By Ray Yurkowski

News - Trenton - The United Way of Quinte is looking for some everyday heroes.

“Every day, our community feels the positive impact of thousands of everyday heroes who give, volunteer and act to make a tangible difference in our community,” proclaims a poster for the 2013 fund-raising campaign, which kicked off on September 12.

After a highly successful campaign last year, that saw $1.95 million raised for the cause, the organization is aiming even higher this year, announcing a goal of $2 million. And that’s still “a drop in the bucket,” says campaign chairperson Dave Brown, who attended a chili lunch event last week at the Royal Canadian Legion Branch 110 in Trenton.

“This is a well attended event every year,” he said. “Having events like this in different places helps get the word out about United Way and what we’re all about.

“What got me involved as a volunteer is that every dollar we raise stays here to help this community. There’s a big part of you that wants to know, if I’m going to do something, I’m helping my neighbour out, and you can see the results of that in United Way.” When asked about this year’s lofty fund-raising goal, Brown said, “People wonder why it goes up every year and it’s because the need goes up every year. Even at $2 million, it’s still a drop in the bucket compared to the needs in this community. Every dollar counts and all the support here is amazing.”

The United Way of Quinte covers a

big area, spanning both Hastings and Prince Edward Counties.

In 2012, 75 per cent of funds raised came from workplace initiatives, campaigns and donations to the United Way of Quinte. In turn, the organization helped support more than 70 programs at 43 local health and social service not-for-profit agencies including Big Brothers Big Sisters, Red Cross and the Canadian Mental Health Association.

The campaign runs until the end of December with a campaign wrap-up announcement expected in mid-January 2014. Log on to <www.unitedwayofquinte.ca> for more information.

Arts comes alive in October

News - Brighton - The Brighton Arts Council (BAC) membership will be busy in the weeks ahead, starting this weekend at Applefest, where they’ll be presenting an Artisan Village at the King Edward Park community centre.

A wide variety of art media will be on display along with a host of workshops and demonstrations on Saturday and Sunday. Along with that, the arts organization will be playing host to an open mike on both days.

And that’s just the beginning, as BAC gears up for October and the Arts Month

celebrations. The month-long event was created four years ago as a salute to the wealth of local art in Northumberland County.

“Arts Council Northumberland, Spirit of the Hills and Brighton Arts Council partnered with tourism, government and commerce to build a stronger recognition of how the arts and culture of an area not only produces quality of life but also creates a healthy economy,” explained BAC past president Ron Waddling, who played a major role in the creation of the October celebration of the arts. The partnership estab-

lished with service clubs and commerce has particularly grown in the Brighton area where more than 50 sponsors have signed up in support. As well, the Brighton Lions Club is offering a five-dollar “Passport to the Arts,” for discounts or draw prizes at area businesses. And the passport purchase price goes directly to the service club, so they can continue to support community projects. Passports are available at the Robbins Nest, 53 Main Street, or from any member of the Brighton Lions Club.

All month, local art will be on display at BAC on Main, 28 Main Street; Brigh-

ton Public Library, 35 Alice Street; Lola’s Coffee House, 78 Main Street; and Mrs. B’s Country Candy Store, 7 Prince Edward Street as well as The Gates gallery, 240 Presqu’ile Parkway, where almost daily workshops will include encaustics, pastels, meditation, photography, exploring the labyrinth, a seniors drum circle and a human-book presentation recalling the ill-fated voyage of the Speedy by local historian Dan Buchanan along with open mikes every Tuesday evening.

Applefest car show putting Brighton on the map “I know people who are driving four, five, six hours to see him.”

As for what to expect at the September 28 show, Postma says, “It’s a big list. We’ll have a lot of showstoppers along with a lot of rare cars.”

He notes how one of the cars might hold a special interest for Koker.

“Danny tried to buy the old El Camino about three years ago,” said Postma. “Apparently, he has a picture of it in his office. It’ll be interesting to see the reaction when Danny sees it at the show.”

Postma has lined up another special guest: an appearance by Batman,

also known as car aficionado Glenn McCullagh, of Shelburne, who turned a former Chevrolet Caprice Classic police car into a re-creation of the Batmobile from the 1989 movie. McCullagh also bears a striking resemblance to the movie’s star, Michael Keaton.

“It’s pretty phenomenal,” said Postma with a chuckle. “He dresses up as Batman and his wife is Catwoman.”

Another first for the Applefest car show: there will be a one-dollar admission fee to get onto the grounds.

The reason for the decision isn’t so much to offset the cost of the show but more to track how popular the show turns out to be at the weekend festival.

Incredibly the entire event has taken shape since the beginning of the year; when show director Jean House finally tracked Postma down to ask if he wanted to be involved.

Now, one of the logistical challenges on the day of the event is parking 600 cars inside of three hours.

“It’s all mapped out,” says Postma.

Events - Brighton - After a one-year hiatus, the Applefest car show is back this year and promoter Don Postma promises the biggest lineup of vehicles ever. With television personality Danny Koker making his first-ever Canadian appearance as special guest at the Brighton show, car owners are lining up.

Historically, the automobile event has averaged about 300 vehicles but this year, Postma says he’ll be squeezing 600 cars into the Brighton Public School grounds.

“Plus there is a waiting list,” he said. ”And my phone is still ringing non-stop.

“The show is putting Brighton on the map. I’ve got guys driving in from New York State. They’re coming in from all over the place.”

He adds how he’s receiving email from car enthusiasts from British Columbia to Nova Scotia, all thanks to Danny Koker.

Library board letter sparks debate ing more than one member of council sit on the library board,” said Councillor Mike Vandertoorn. “I have no reason to believe we have done anything wrong nor can I understand why the library board is so upset about it.

“We made the decision because they are short on membership and the last thing we need to be doing right now is pulling more people off of it.”

Rittwage referred to email correspondence from Carter, calling it “highly inappropriate,” for suggesting there is an agenda from CAO Gayle Frost and certain members of council.

“The Act states council appoints members of the library board,” said Rittwage.

That’s when Deputy-mayor Craig Kerr voiced his take on the situation.

“Over the past few months, there has been some real confusion arising between the respective roles of municipal council, the library board, the requirements of the Public Libraries Act, the requirements of the Municipal Act and the function of the Southern Ontario Library System,” he said, before recommending an invitation to a Ministry (of Tourism, Culture and Sport) representative for a joint meeting with the library board and council “so they can lay out the whole story.”

“We’re contemplating some major expenditures in the foreseeable future to provide the library space that is so desperately needed but

A second letter raised concerns in Smithfield, noting “it has been particularly dangerous for pedestrians and cyclists. The OPP have responded to complaints by setting up speed radar, but this has had no long-term effects.”

Adding to the Smithfield traffic woes is the ongoing reconstruction on County Road 2, making Smith Street an unofficial alternative route for motorists.

Council received the letters and referred further action on all three concerns to staff.

“We’re hearing about three locations that have issues with speed and we only have two [LED speed control] signs,” concluded Rittwage. “Our staff is going to have their hands full in determining where they go.”

News - Brighton - Reducing speed on local roadways was on the minds of Brighton residents at last week’s municipal council meeting.

A motion from Councillors John Martinello and Mary Tadman got the wheels turning with a suggestion to reduce the speed limit along the entire length of Old Wooler Road, within the boundaries of the municipality, to 60 kilometres per hour.

Martinello explained how the proposal came about after talking to area residents who “recounted numerous instances of near misses between bicyclists and cars.”

“I don’t feel that council should be the ones making decisions to install yield signs, stop signs or traffic signs,” said Councillor Tom Rittwage. “My preference is that it goes back to staff for a report.”

That proposal was followed by a letter from a group of citizens wondering why one of the new LED speed control signs, installed in May, hasn’t found a home on Whites Road. “Some drivers are doing more than 100 kilometres per hour in a 60-kilometre-per-hour zone,” they wrote.

“And one of the units is installed on Alice Street, a road with existing traffic control measures associated with at least two stop signs.”

Things got a bit personal when the group pointed out the Alice Street sign is located at the property of Deputymayor Craig Kerr.

“It wasn’t an improvement I asked for,” Kerr said. “The wording of this correspondence clearly insinuates there was something improper involving the decision to site that traffic control device in front of my residence.”

“If anybody wants a large, four-by-four, pressure-treated pole with a flashing light, including strobe on some occasions, and a large solar panel located directly outside their window, I’m sure municipal staff will give their request due consideration,” he added.

“I do agree that Whites Road might be one location we might want to look at when it comes time to move the signs,” said Rittwage.

“I do support a speed limit sign on Whites Road,” added Martinello. “It’s another road where there’s unlimited speeding going on.”

Speeding concerns in Brighton

News - Brighton - Municipal council dug in their heels last week over a request from Brighton Public Library Board chairperson Dale Carter asking council to rescind a decision to add Councillor Tom Rittwage to the group.

In a letter, Carter points to their constitution, which says “the board shall be composed of nine members appointed from the municipality including one member from Brighton Council.”

“What are we trying to do here?” wondered Councillor Mary Tadman. “Are we policing the library board?”

“Let’s stop whining about who is sitting around the table,” countered Rittwage. “Let’s just worry about what happens around the table and how we move forward.”

Carter did point out the board is currently in the process of revising our constitution to reflect changes in the Public Libraries Act, which provides for a minimum of five members.

Although, he added, “There has been no discussion to expand the council representation from one member to two.”

However, the Act says council “shall not appoint more of its own members to a board than the number that is one less than a majority of the board.”

“There should be nothing wrong with hav-

Pieces of furniture given a new look and purpose at Special Effects

By John Campbell

Sheryl Delorme opened Special Effects Decorating last week, promising to provide “a unique decorating experience” for clients. Her services include custom furniture painting, colour consulting, room redesigns and “re-purposing” pieces of furniture. Photo: John Campbell

decided to relocate to Brighton.

It took them about two years “to find a location we thought would be suitable to house everything that we wanted to do” in a community where “nobody else here to my knowledge does” what she has to offer.

Sometimes the pieces Delorme redesigns are brought to her by her clients, because she does custom work as well. But she also purchases from them, as well as buys stuff at auc-

tions, yard sales and on Kijiji.

Her store also sells home decor “to accent the re-vintaged pieces,” which, by their nature, are one of a kind.

She acquired a coffee table which she repainted, “distressed”—a technique used to make it appear old— and then added numbers so it would resemble the face of a clock.

“This piece I will not duplicate again and that’s the beauty of the store, because it’s a unique shopping

experience, it’s a unique decorating experience,” Delorme said.

The market for household furniture given “a new look … is really, really big in Europe,” she said. “When you look at it, doesn’t it make sense? Why send it to a landfill if you don’t need to, if you can breathe new life into a piece? It may not fit your decor as is but there’s no reason why we can’t do something to make it fit your decor.”

Delorme chose this line of work

because “they say follow your passion [and] you’ll never work a day in your life … If it’s something that I enjoy and it’s something that I’m good at, then why not?”

She and her husband moved into their home built in 1868 this summer and renovated one side of the house to serve as the store, which includes a line of hats handmade by Laurene in Belleville that’s exclusive to Special Effects.

Business - Brighton - They say one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.

Sheryl Delorme is someone who can make it all happen.

She’s an interior decorator who’s also a redesign specialist and on September 16 she opened a new business in town at 85 Main Street called Special Effects Decorating.

“I upcycle, I re-vintage, I take pieces that either people don’t want or they think there’s no life or value left in them and I re-purpose them into something that is absolutely beautiful,” she said.

Delorme took a dry sink, for example, and turned it into a cabinet that could be used in a coffee station. “It’s great for people who are downsizing their residence [or] students going away to school [who] need … lots of storage space.”

The store she operates in conjunction with her services as an interior decorator is filled with pieces that have been given a new look and use.

A decorative painter for more than 20 years, and in retail for more than 30 years Delorme went back to school in 2007 to get certified as an interior decorator and completed the two-year program in six months, she said.

She started Special Effects Decorating in Belleville, but it “was mostly consulting.”

She and her husband, Jason, who works for General Motors in Oshawa,

operates with a physician, nurse, nurse practitioner, dietitian, social worker, dentist, and massage therapist.

Hundreds of visits by clients take place every month, and so the centre plays a significant role in the delivery of health care services to the community.

The Warkworth Community Service Club played a leadership role in its development and currently manages the facility on behalf of the Municipality of Trent Hills.

The winners of the annual tournament each received drawings donated by local artist Peter Moore.

The organizers, Mike Tumpane and Rosemarie Peikes, wish to thank the many businesses in the Warkworth and Campbellford areas who contributed prizes and sponsorships to this important community event, in particular Salt Creek Golf Links, which donated all green fees.

Local charities partner in fund-raising event

News - Hillier - A harrowing five kilometres of daunting obstacles flooded with slippery mud, a crippling creek all set against a backdrop of glowing grapes awaits spirited, strong-willed contenders with unwavering intensity and endurance ready to embark upon this region’s first-ever extreme survival race.

The Canadian Cancer Society - Hastings-Prince Edward County and Brighton Community Office, in a newly formed partnership with the Prince Edward County Memorial Hospital Foundation (PECMHF) and the Trenton Memorial Hospital Foundation (TMHF) are proud to present the inaugural Grapes of Wrath. This exciting

charity obstacle race will raise funds for patients receiving cancer care and services from the abovementioned organizations.

The gruelling course, designed with assistance from Gordon Peckham, commanding officer of CFB Trenton’s Health Care Centre and a Director of the TMH Foundation Board, will be hosted by Hillier Creek Estates in Prince Edward County on Saturday, September 13, 2014. This race will challenge your resilience, strength and stamina and will test your ability to have fun in the face of hardship. Participants may choose to race solo or as part of a team.

Hillier Creek Estates sets the perfect scene for this race. Rac-

ers will trudge over, under and through grapevines, splash through the winery’s namesake creek while building the courage to overcome uncompromising mud stricken obstacles while raising money for health care in our communities.

The winery’s land had been originally granted to Dr. James Latham, a British army surgeon serving in the United States during the War of 1812. He is noted as being the first inoculator of the smallpox vaccine. Hillier Creek Estates, in its current state, is a farm winery comprised of 50 acres; 24 of which are planted with Gamay, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Riesling, and Vidal grapes.

“This is something that hasn’t

been done in this area and we think it’s an exciting, exclusive event.

Because of the beautiful scenery the winery lends and as Prince Edward County becomes known as a premier wine destination, we thought this would be a perfect blend of charity and camaraderie as challengers come together as teams or individuals to participate in this fun and inspiring event while raising money for much-needed medical equipment for patients using our hospitals and for patients receiving cancer treatment. It is going to be an exhilarating event and we are sure we will raise significant funds for the HPE and Brighton CS as well as the PECM and TM Hospital Foundations,” said Wendy War-

District Drumhead Service

ner, executive director of the TMH Foundation.

“Fund raising can be a difficult task when there are an abundance of charities looking for support and donations from the public,” said Amy Doyle, Canadian Cancer Society. “Through this partnership we hope to bring our communities something different, that’s unique to this area, electrifying and at the same time tap into a whole new genre of donors and sponsors.”

Mark the date on your calendars Saturday, September 13, 2014, and watch for registration and sponsorship information soon to come.

For 75 years, the Canadian Cancer Society has been with Canadians in the fight for life.

T

We have been relentless in our commitment to prevent cancer, fund research and support Canadians touched by cancer. From this foundation, we will work with Canadians to change cancer forever so fewer Canadians are diagnosed with the disease and more survive.

The PECMH and TMH Foundations support their respective hospitals by raising funds and awareness of the need to assist in the provision of priority medical equipment and services for all patients and residents of our communities. It is through the generosity of our donors that our doctors, nurses and technologists can provide quality health care to the patients at PECM and TM Hospital.

Rain doesn’t deter music fans

By Steve Jessel

Entertainment - Belleville - If there’s one thing an outdoor music festival of any kind relies upon, it’s the weather. From Big Music Fest to Empire Rockfest, good weather can make or break an event, but despite blustering winds, cloudy skies and more than a bit of drizzle, Porchfest organizer Lucinda Pritchard said she was determined not to let the weather bring her down.

“You can’t do anything about the weather, that’s the only part we have no control over,” she said wryly. “We take what we can get.”

Roughly 40 people attended the opening ceremonies for Porchfest

Belleville 2013 on Saturday afternoon, kicking off a full-day event featuring 60 performers on 19 porches and stoops throughout the East Hill neighbourhood of Belleville. Helping kick off the event was well-known Belleville musician Andy Forgie, who said it’s always refreshing to be able to come home and play for his neighbours and friends.

“It’s home, and that makes all the difference in the world,” Forgie said.

“You don’t expect fancy trappings or fancy sound or lighting systems …

I’m totally content to just be on the front porch, or be on the stoop, or an orange crate—it doesn’t matter, it’s home, and I think that’s the thing that

makes it so special.”

Porchfest is the brainchild of Pritchard and Ken Hudson, and in 2013 celebrated its fifth anniversary. Pritchard said the event is meant as a stress-free environment where the neighbourhood can connect with each other, and also provides a great venue for up-and-coming talent from the Belleville area.

“We just want to have fun in our neighbourhood,” Pritchard said. “We love our neighbourhood, it’s a great area that’s easy to walk around … it’s just been a really great way to meet neighbours and have a good time, and we really believe in grassroots community events, and really believe that

ASK THE EXPERTS Q: Why do I need a Sports Mouth Guard?

A: We always think we need to protect our body with the necessary

equipment, when playing sports, but we forget how important it is to protect our teeth. A sports mouth guard is a device that is worn over your teeth that protects them from blows to the face and head. Mouth guards are an important piece of athletic equipment for anyone participating in a sport that involves contact, falls or flying equipment. Mouth guards typically cover the upper teeth, and are designed to protect against broken teeth, cut lips and other damage to your mouth. If you are wearing braces or other fixed dental appliances (such as a bridge) on your lower jaw, your dentist may suggest a mouth protector for these teeth as well.

The types of dental injuries that can occur without the use of a mouth guard are chipped or broken teeth, fractured crowns or bridgework, lip or cheek injuries, root damage to the teeth, fractured jaws, and concussions. Any athlete may be at risk for oral injury and any injury can be prevented with the use of a sports mouth guard.

QUESTION: Connie, I don’t feed the birds during the sum-

mer. When is the best time to start up again?

ANSWER: Now is a good time. Birds are definitely on the move. Migration is well underway, some migrating far south, others just far enough south to discover a better natural food source. For instance, the Blue Jays you see at your feeders now... probably not the ones that spent the summer in your yard. Let’s call them North Bay Blue Jays. The birds that will fill your yard this season are checking out feeders that will supplement their natural food supply. A good reason, I think, for not habitually letting your feeders go empty.

News - Quinte West - The first Bay of Quinte Road Race Challenge saw great weather and participation as over 70 cyclists took part in the 26- and 44-kilometre leisure rides as well as the 120-kilometre Ontario Cycling Association sanctioned road race. With 51 competing in the sanctioned course that took riders through Prince Edward County, the City of Belleville and both urban and rural areas of Quinte West, riders were thrilled with the scenery and condition of the course and said they would definitely be back. Following each of the three rides, participants were treated to a gourmet barbecue provided by The Ramblin’ Pit. “This event is a real success story of how our regional partners are working together,” noted Bay of Quinte Tourism President Ryan Williams. “Cycle tourism is such a growing market and we are so fortunate in the Bay of Quinte Region to have such great trails, roadways and routes to draw tourists to our area,” he adds.

Participants in Sunday’s race were not only able to take in the scenery and enjoy a great lunch, but also support a great cause. A portion of each registration fee will go directly to the local Heart & Stroke Foundation and riders

also had the option of pledging additional amounts. Funds are being tallied, with a total expected later this week.

The 120-kilometre race results were as follows; Youth (Open) - 1st Place: Derek Harnden (3:01:11), 2nd Place: Lucas Bent (3:01:43), 3rd Place: Tyler Allsopp (3:31:32), Adult Open - 1st Place: Kevin Black (3:01:25), 2nd Place: Greg Woitzik (3:01:26), 3rd Place: Casey Roth (3:01:34), Senior (Open) – 1st Place: Richard Westwood (3:01:44), 2nd Place: Kevin Wheeler (3:23:01), 3rd Place: Florian Braig (3:45:17). The day’s overall winner was Derek Harnden from the Peterborough Cycling Club.

Committee Chair, Quinte West Councillor Fred Kuypers, reported that they were pleased with the results of the first event and look forward to further improvements for next year.

“This was the start of a new opportunity for Quinte West,” he commented.

“We appreciate the support provided by the many volunteers, race officials, local municipalities, staff, Bay of Quinte Tourism and the Quinte West OPP and Belleville Police who provided support along the routes and made it possible.”

and we’ve got some devoted Porchfest fans … maybe we’ll have fewer audience members but I don’t think that will detract from our event overall.”

Pritchard isn’t the only one looking ahead to 2014, as Forgie agreed the event was a fun and charming festival, to which he would ask for only one change.

“Here’s to 2014 and sunshine,” Forgie said with a laugh.

Pritchard conceded that the rain would probably mean smaller audiences than in past years, but said she was already looking forward to 2014.

“I expect we’ll probably not have as many audience members as we have in the past,” Pritchard said at the opening of this year’s event. “But, everyone has got their umbrellas out,

Q: How should I prepare my house to sell?

A: The condition of the house will not only help to determine the price, but perhaps more importantly it will affect its saleability. Is it neat, tidy and well maintained both inside and out? Can potential buyers envision themselves there? In a Buyers’ market, your home needs to be in substantially better condition than the competition.

There are many inexpensive ways to freshen up your home: a modern, neutral coat of paint, new light fixtures and switches, eliminating all clutter, and packing away knick-knacks, to name just a few. If you are inclined to do significant upgrades, focus on the kitchen and bathroom(s). Keep in mind that you will not necessarily see a full return on your investment dollars for upgrading your home, but the work done should make it that much more appealing and more competitive, which should lead to more interest and a quicker sale.

News - Stirling - Local police are currently involved in a pair of sexual assault investigations but are providing few details.

Stirling-Rawdon Police Chief Brian Foley says on Monday a 37-year-old Kingston man turned himself in to police and is currently facing four sexual assault charges involving both a youth and an adult.

The charges relate to incidents in August or September, he says.

The man has since been before the courts and was released from custody, Foley says.

In the other case, investigators are following up on a reported sexual assault in the Kings Mill Road area last weekend.

Calls during the past week were otherwise routine in nature, he says, and included regular patrols, traffic act enforcement and responding to false 9-1-1 calls.

Keeping the fight alive

News - Belleville - Blustering winds, chilly temperatures and intermittent rain greeted the participants of Bellevilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual ALS Walk this past weekend, but for Andrew Romano, manager of Projects and Events for ALS Canada, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just another sign of how dedicated those participants are. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s amazing to see the support that people show us even with this weath-

er,â&#x20AC;? Romano said with a laugh. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They have a passion and we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thank them enough for their support.â&#x20AC;?

Roughly 100 people gathered at Zwicks Park on Saturday for the event, which was marking its 12th anniversary here in Belleville. Walk co-ordinator Evelyn Wilson has attended every one, co-ordinating eight, and says that after so many years and so many familiar faces, a bond grows

High School athletes win gold for Canada

Sports - Campbellford The Campbellford Rebels squandered a 4 - 1 lead against the Deseronto Storm September 20 but pulled out a win on the road on Jordan Boutilierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s third goal of the game, midway through the third period.

Kevin Valdes made 23 saves to backstop the Rebels to their first win of the season in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League.

The team fell 4 - 2 to the Amherstview Jets September 15, allowing the home side to score four unanswered goals after staking a 2 - 0 lead halfway through the opening period.

Lou Gehrig actually was.â&#x20AC;?

ALS, or Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is an often fatal disease that can rapidly cause a number of health problems, including difficulty breathing, speaking and swallowing. The name Lou Gehrigâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Disease is derived from former American star baseball player Lou Gehrig, who was diagnosed with the disease in 1939, claiming his career, and within two years, his life. Today, ALS Canada is the only national voluntary health organization dedicated to fighting ALS, and for the past 12 years has been holding Walk for ALS events in scores of communities across the country, raising over $3 million for client care and research in 2012 alone. ALS Canada, like many other volunteer organizations receives no funding from the government, making walks like the one in Belleville a massive part of their ongoing operations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very important for us to raise these funds and have this support,â&#x20AC;? Romano said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The money here will go toward research and client care in the province, which is very important for us.â&#x20AC;?

For more information on ALS Canada, visit their web site at <www.als.ca>.

William Lameroux and Andy Paul had the other two goals in Campbellfordâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win over Deseronto.

Steven Clarke collected two assists and 12 minutes in penalties: two for crosschecking and ten minutes for abuse of officials.

The Rebels were to play their third straight road game September 24 in Napanee before their first home game this Saturday at 7:30, a return engagement with the Storm.

Campbellford is tied for first with three other teams who have two points but Picton and Port Hope had played only one game as of Monday.

between organizers and the various families, teams and individuals who attend each year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It becomes almost like a family,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You see these people typically only once a year, but you see them come back year after year.â&#x20AC;?

The event typically raises between $10,000 and $15,000 a year, funds that are used for client care and research into the often fatal disease. In recent years, Wilson said, the profile of the disease and of the organization has seen a bit of a decline, but for a variety of reasons. When the walk first started in Belleville there were 23 people in the region with ALS. Over time, that number has shrunk to seven, which is both a blessing and a curse for the event. On one hand, fewer people with the disease is obviously a positive, however, it also tends to mean that fewer people attend ALS fund-raising events as fewer people have that personal connection to the disease. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a huge thing to bring awareness, because with a lot of people, especially now in the current generation, ALS is better known as Lou Gehrigâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disease,â&#x20AC;? Wilson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But a lot of this generation has no idea of who

Youth exchange program helps students grow into adults

By John Campbell

News - Campbellford - Verena Miranda de Souza, who’s learning ballet in her native Brazil, played rugby for the first time last week and it left quite an impression—as well as a bruise.

But she’s “really liking” the sport she’s taken up while an exchange student at Campbellford District High School, even though she felt “a bit lost” out on the field. She even got to tackle an opponent.

The 16-year-old de Souza arrived in Campbellford in August to begin a year-long stay as part of the youth exchange program operated by the Rotary Club of Campbellford.

The Grade 11 student has not only had to adjust to life in a foreign country but also to living in a small town that’s a mere speck compared to the city she calls home in the state of São Paulo; more than 200,000 people live in Presidente Prudente.

“It’s very different,” de Souza said, but she’s enjoying the experience. “It’s very calm … here you can go walking without danger,” she said.

“At night you can walk alone.”

She is the 11th exchange student to have stayed at the home of Cathy and Scott Beamish.

Cathy, the immediate past president of the local Rotary Club, got involved in the youth exchange program “because the kids were gone from home and I was lonely.”

Over the years the couple have had teens stay in their home from Germany, Holland, Japan and France; de Souza is the third one from Brazil.

“They’re like your extended family,” Beamish said. “They’re not on a holiday, they’re supposed to assimilate into your lifestyle, be your child.”

While here, de Souza will receive $150 a month spending allowance from the Campbellford Rotary club, plus $25 for use of a cellphone.

Beamish now runs the youth exchange for Rotary and touts its benefits every fall to students at CDHS. The friends they make “they’ll have them for a lifetime,” said Beamish, who still hears regularly from the teens who stayed in her home.

“It’s a great program for the kids to learn about the world” and to be “an ambassador” for Canada, she said. At the same time they also learn that families across different cultures raise their children “basically the same and try to be good people.”

Beamish emphasizes that the program is open to students whose parents aren’t Rotarians, and “it’s monitored closely” to ensure the young people are safe wherever they go.

Applicants are interviewed and one is chosen each year based on how well the student is seen to “fit into the program. We don’t want to set anybody up to fail,” Beamish said. “It’s hard, you get homesick, there are ups and downs sometimes, and little things to iron out … You want that student who’s going to be the best.”

Parents are responsible for the cost of the student’s flight and insurance coverage while in a foreign land, as well as any spending money they wish to provide, although students from Trent Hills have gone to Europe and “haven’t had to pay a penny, their host families embraced them and they foot the bill for everything,” Beamish said.

Living away from home in a different culture “really changes” the students, she said. “They blossom and mature and become more worldly.”

Allan and Rose Ingram, whose daughter Kirsten went to Denmark two years ago as an exchange student, are serving as a host family as well during de Souza’s stay in town.

Beamish said she would like one other family “There must be someone else in this town to volunteer for the program, and repeats they who would get as much enjoyment out of it as don’t have to be a member of Rotary to take we do.” part.

And “when the water levels go up, the garbage and human waste pollutes the waters.”

Elsewhere, “obscure areas around the bridge are [also] being used as a latrine,” even though it’s only a short walk to a portable washroom nearby, she said.

“These areas reek of human waste and must certainly be a health hazard.”

Asselstine presented an action plan her group had put together to undertake in concert with the municipality and Parks Canada. It includes installing: no litter signs in various locations, including the bridge and the parking lots being used by those who come to Hastings to fish; no smoking signs at the ball field and a park used by children; no fishing signs near the beach on the north side of the river, and; no trespassing signs to

deny access to the area between the lock and spillway The group also proposed making garbage containers more available and placing recycle containers in “high volume areas.”

Another suggestion was to relocate two of the portable washrooms near the ballpark “to more convenient areas,” such as the children’s playground beside the post office.

The delegation included a presentation

by Arniece Salata on providing anglers with receptacles for the disposal of fishing line, using as a model a program in Florida.

Asselstine handed over a petition with the names of almost 600 people in support of the group’s bid to meet with municipal staff to discuss their concerns and proposed solutions, and to have council’s backing when the group approached Parks Canada.

Sports - Belleville - Hockey dressing rooms are typically loud and jubilant places, but last Saturday one could hear a pin drop in the lower level of the Yardmen Arena, as Belleville Bulls players walked off the ice following a 4 - 1 loss to the North Bay Battalion to open the home portion of their Ontario Hockey League season.

There was no cheering and little chatter; just quiet resolve to get better.

The Bulls next home game is “They should be upset,” said Bulls coach George Burnett sternly. “We had a great start tonight and we got away from Saturday, September 28, when they host the things that allowed us to be successful in the last half of the Niagara IceDogs at 7 p.m. at the the first period. We got individual in our thinking and made Yardman Arena. choices that weren’t team choices and it cost us.”

The Bulls led 1 - 0 after one period on a goal by rookie David Tomasek. But North Bay responded with goals in the second period by Mike Amadio and Jamie Lewis, respectively.

Vincent Praplan scored another goal for North Bay in the third period and Alex Henriksson added one late in the game to ensure the majority of the 2,866 fans in attendance would go home unhappy.

It wasn’t difficult for Burnett to analyze what went wrong.

“We were helping each other and supporting each other [in the first half of the game],” he said. “As the game went on we started playing more and more individually and we started turning the puck over. When you don’t move the puck and get support when you’re trying to battle for pucks, it’s really hard, especially against a team that works as hard as they do.”

The loss was the second in a row for the Bulls, following Friday’s 5 - 4 regular-season opening loss in Ottawa. In that game, Brady Austin and Scott Simmonds scored in the first to give Belleville a 2 - 0 lead. The Bulls also got goals from Tomasek and Garrett Hooey in the second period, and led 4 2 at one point. But the Ottawa 67’s scored three unanswered goals in the third period to complete a comeback.

Charlie Graham was the losing goalie in both games, although his statistics weren’t bad. In Ottawa on Friday, he stopped 34 of 39 shots. On Saturday, he stopped 35 of 39 shots.

The Bulls will look for their first win of the season Friday night when they travel to Mississauga to take on the Steelheads, the team they beat in the opening round of last year’s play-offs.

Simmonds said the rematch will be a good early season test.

“I don’t think they have short-term memory loss there,” said the left-winger, one of 13 returning members of the Bulls. “They’re a good squad and they always work hard. We have to get up and be ready to go.”

Simmonds acknowledged that the players were upset about going winless in the opening weekend, but feel they can turn their season around quickly by making a few adjustments.

“It starts in our defensive zone; we have to do the little things right,” he said. “Some guys have just played their first games. We’re getting the bugs out. We have to make sure we’re working as a team. The wins will come as long as we’re outworking the other team.”

“We wanted to make council aware that it is a huge problem in our village,” she said.

People from outside the municipality signed the petition as well. If the littering continues, visitors “won’t want to come here because it’s a mess,” Asselstine said.

Deputy-mayor Bob Crate, who represents the village, met with the group in August. He said he was “completely in favour” of what it proposed Councillor Meirion Jones said the group could strengthen its cause by getting the Hastings Downtown Waterfront Improvement Committee “on board” as it has plans for the areas identified.

Salata said the group was looking for council’s permission to proceed before reaching out to the committee for assistance.

Councillor Rosemary Kelleher-MacLennan expressed her appreciation for the work the group had done and said she hoped the success of its efforts would be repeated along the waterway all the way through the municipality.

Mayor Hector Macmillan, who agreed with the councillor the proposal was “great,” said a petition hadn’t been necessary before approaching council and staff for help.

He suggested Asselstine and the others meet with community development officer Vaughn Finch “to get everything all in order.

“I don’t see why it can’t be done [next spring],” he said. “Thanks very much for doing all the legwork to get it going.”

News - Trent Hills - A group of Hastings residents petitioned council last week to do something about the “irresponsible” littering taking place in their community that’s ruining their “beautiful village.”

Spokesperson Wendy Asselstine told council September 17 that she and other members of the group took a walk around Hastings this summer and were “shocked” at what they found: Litter left along the waterway and around the bridge is often ending up in the Trent River “causing pollution and danger to water life.”

The grassy area between Lock 18 and the former mill spillway has become “a major dumping site and is being used as a latrine by some members of the public,” Asselstine said.

SPORTS

Sports - Brighton - The racing action was non-stop during day one of the Cool 100 Applefest Shootout at Brighton Speedway Friday, September 20. The race card was jam packed and the track was dry slick, creating an exciting action packed night of racing.

A first career DIRTcar tour win was on Shane Pecore’s mind heading into Applefest Weekend. After claiming a non-sanctioned Sportsman win at the 1/3 mile oval in 2009, confidence was high for the current Brockville Ontario Speedway champion. A fast car and a little luck helped Pecore realize his dream as he cashed in on the 35-lap race.

Justin Sharp and Paul Gaboury led the 31 car field to the green flag. Sharp was strong from the beginning and held the lead through the first half of the race.

Brad Rouse, Jessica Power and Chris Herbison all stayed close to the leader, but were unable to seriously challenge for the top spot.

Sixth-place starter Pecore began to make his move during the mid-stages of the race and reeled in the leader. With plenty of rubber in the lower and middle grooves, the top two ran nose to tail in the high line. Pecore tried a number of times to make a pass to the inside, but

was unable to get any traction to take the top spot.

A late race caution took away Sharp’s chance to win as the driveshaft broke coming to the green flag. He pulled to the infield and handed the lead to Pecore. In the closing laps defending race winner Cody McPherson charged to front from his 19th starting position and made a serious run for the win. Pecore though held his ground and captured his first career DIRTcar Sportsman tour win. McPherson held on for second and Jessica Power was third. Brent Bigolo was the hard charger of the race coming from his 22nd starting spot and finishing ninth.

In the TUSA Mod-Lite Canadian Nationals feature event, Josh Sliter used some steady driving on the outside groove to pass Tim Anderson for the win.

Sliter cashed in on the $500 payday.

Jason Powers dominated in round seven of the Ford Dingwall Memorial Vintage Modified race and claimed the win.

The Brighton Automotive Pro Stock feature event was a 20-lap dash to the front. With visitors joining the ranks to prepare for the Saturday event, the Big Smooth Doug Anderson was faced with greater competition in the feature lineup and made it back up to third, following

#57 Charlie Sandercock in a ten-lap Dash to the line. The winner will be crowned the 2013 points champion.

The Brighton Automotive Pro Stocks has also been added to the race card for a non-points event. Racing action on Saturday, September 28, gets under way at 5:50 p.m. with a group photo on the race track with Caley Weese and all those who contributed to the 2013 Anti Bullying Campaign. Everyone who purchased a T-shirt from the 77 Team is welcome to join us on the track before the start of the race program for their photo. Racing will begin at 6 p.m. for what will be one of the greatest nights in the 2013 lineup.

It doesn’t stop there though! We

invite you to join us on Sunday, September 29, for the Lange & Fetter Eve of Destruction featuring the Workman Auto Repair OK Tire School Bus Races, Hotch’s Auto Parts Monster Enduro, Juniors Enduro and Ladies Enduro. As well as the Brighton Recycling Demo Derby, the Trailer Race, The Gauntlet, The Car Long Jump and what ever else promoter Mark Rinaldi has up his sleeve. The day of destruction is always an awesome afternoon of excitement and thrills.

We cap off the season with a bang as activities on Sunday begin at 2 p.m. Be sure to visit <www.brightonspeedway. com> or join us on Facebook to keep up with all of the action.

The Bill’s Johns Comp 4 feature put #43 Brandon Wilkie in Victory Lane ahead of points leader Tom Vance #43 and Rob Brooks driving the #31 took third. The Quinte Septic Stingers saw #99 Arthur McCauley take his second feature win of the season followed by #95 Christopher Lammle and #19 Del MacGregor.

The ninth annual Applefest Shootout Weekend was proudly presented by Cool 100.1FM, Lucas Oil Products Canada, VP Racing Fuels, Mystical Distributing Company Ltd., Coca-Cola and ImageFactor.ca Motorsport Designs & Photos. Saturday’s Cool 100 Applefest Shootout was cancelled because of rain.

No rain date will be scheduled. As a result the regular points for the OILgard Anti Rust Canadian Modified Division is in the books and #33 Ryan Scott from Kingston takes the Championship Title.

The next event to hit the oval is the rescheduled John’s Equipment presentation of the Danny Reid Memorial 50-Lap Canadian Modified Race, the McDougall Insurance and Financial Great Crate Race, as well as final points nights for the Stingers and Comp 4’s. Added to the excitement is a ten-lap Late Model Dash to break the tie in the Vanderlaan Building Supplies Pro Late Model points battle.

Brothers racing toward BC nationals

By Richard Turtle

An added surprise was a return home for the replica Tow Mater, now owned and maintained at Farmtown Park, that was originally purchased new at McKeown’s as a stock 1988 Dodge Dakota. The truck was purchased by a Deseronto couple, Reid says, and after the husband passed away the truck was sold and modified to resemble the recognizable cartoon character.

Sports - Stirling - Sometimes you have to choose.

And after a hugely successful season of travelling to race their BMX bikes, combined with a season of travelling with the Stirling Blues, Lance and Cole Zufelt had a decision to make.

“We didn’t want it to be our choice,” says their father Tim, “we wanted to leave it up to them. And they made up their minds that this is what they wanted to do.” And, says mom Elise, with the time commitments required there really was room for only one serious sport. So now registered in the SDMHA’s house league, and a far more relaxed hockey schedule, the boys are free to pursue their cycling dreams, which currently include a trip to the national championships.

In their respective age groups, Cole, soon to be ten, and eight-yearold Lance are ranked in the top five in Canada. The rankings, Tim explains, come from results of sanctioned races that have placed both boys in the number one spot provincially. The boys race two different bikes each on both indoor and outdoor tracks but the outdoor season is winding down, he says.

But with race weekends continuing until December, the Zufelts are currently setting their sights on Chilliwack, British Columbia, where they will be spending Thanksgiving on the track against competitors from across the country. But in a lot of ways, it won’t be a lot different from weekends past.

So far, the boys say, the cycling competitions have taken them to Quebec, Delaware, Kentucky, Ohio and New York, to name a few, but the upcoming trip to Canada’s west coast will be a first for them. And while it will be a return trip for both Elise and Tim, they admit there won’t be much time for sightseeing.

With Cole and Lance attending regular classes in Grades 5 and 3 respectively at public school in Stirling, competitions have to be squeezed in between school hours. And while they admit there are a few extra days off as a result of the travel, the schedule hasn’t been overwhelming for them.

“It’s not bad,” says Cole of the long days on the road. “You get used to it.”

Please see “Eight” on page B2

Please see “Trips” on page B2

Lance and Cole Zufelt will be heading to BC in October to compete nationally as the year’s BMX racing season winds down. After a successful season of BMX racing in Canada and the U.S., Cole and Lance are looking forward to their upcoming trip to the west coast.

McKeowns host thank-you party for 2,000

By Richard Turtle

R0012321384

News - Spring Brook - While it was free as well, parking was at a premium in the small community north of Stirling last weekend as the local car dealership celebrated 80 years of family business.

Now owned and operated by Bill and Grace McKeown, McKeown Motor Sales first opened its doors in 1933 and has earned a long list

of loyal customers ever since. And many turned up at the dealership last Saturday for a full day celebration that included activities and games, live music and plenty of food.

McKeown Sales Rep Ron Reid, who was among those to address the crowds, says the day, which was an opportunity for the business to acknowledge its customers, was a huge success attracting well over

2,000 visitors and offering lots to do both in and out of the rain.

Along with live music performances indoors throughout the day by Kelli Trottier, Wrought Iron Roots and Freddy Vette and The Flames, rides and children’s games as well as displays and demonstrations by members of the Stirling-Rawdon Fire Department were also a part of the anniversary celebrations.

It was later donated to the museum. The remaining original co-owner, however, received an invitation and was able to attend the celebrations, “so that was really nice,” Reid says.

While greeting visitors, host Grace McKeown explained the party is a chance to thank the customers for their support but is also a simple extension of the sense of family and community the business is based on.

“And with this community’s support,” she says, “you can get through anything.”

O f f i c i a l congratulations were also offered from Prime Minister Stephen Harper through local MP Daryl Kramp, and McKeown staff commemorated

the milestone with a donation to Farmtown Park. A Canadian sugar maple will be planted in the agricultural museum’s extensive courtyard with a plaque “in recognition of 80 years of outstanding service.”

In the end, Reid says, about 2,200 meals were served over the course of the day and even the weather couldn’t put a damper on the collective enthusiasm.

As a result of loading up bikes and driving through Canada and the United States, he says, “we’ve all learned a lot.”

Following the Grand Nationals in BC, which means airline tickets instead of the usual highway travel, the duo will be back on the road with their parents to continue the indoor racing season south of the border until mid-December.

Smile Cookie proceeds going to digital mammography campaign

News - Campbellford - The Tim Hortons Smile Cookie campaign got under way Monday as the Tim Hortons owners in Campbellford joined this annual fund raiser.

All the proceeds from the event here from sales of a special smiling chocolate chunk cookie will go to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation’s digital mammography campaign.

The $1 treat helps charities, hospitals and community programs across Canada in the cities where they are sold.

The fund raiser, which began September 23 continues until Sunday, September 29.

“It’s amazing to see the difference $1 can make,” said Doug Robertson, Tim Hortons restaurant owner in Campbellford.

“We are proud of our ongoing commitment to the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation and want to thank our loyal guests for their gener-

ous support of the Smile Cookie campaign year after year. We encourage everyone to visit us this week to get their own delicious Smile Cookie in support of a great cause.”

Calvin Newman, chair of the Campbellford Memorial Hospital Foundation said, “The hospital is honoured that local Tim Hortons owner/operators Doug and Josephine Robertson are once again supporting the hospital with the Smile Cookie program.

“This is the seventh year the program has supported the hospital with $9,405 being raised to date for the purchase of high priority medical equipment.”

The Smile Cookie campaign started in 1996 to help raise funds for the Hamilton Children’s Hospital in Ontario and has grown to become a major fund raiser at Tim Hortons restaurants across North America.

Last year, the campaign raised more than $4 million

across Canada and the United States.

Nationally, more than 350 local charities are supported each year through the campaign.

New this year, Canadians can send their friends and family a virtual Smile-o-Gram by visiting <www.timhortons.com/ smilecookie>.

Simply choose from a list of messages or create a custom message for the Smile-o-Gram then share via Facebook, Twitter or email.

To learn more about the charities the campaign supports go to: <www.timhortons. com/smilecookie> or join the #SmileCookie conversation at <www.twitter.com/timhorton> and <www.facebook.com/TimHortons>.

For more information about the digital mammography campaign in Campbellford contact Catherine Holt, donor relations at the Foundation office at 705653-1104 Ext. 2104, or email <cholt@cmh.ca>.

Autumn Blaze Maple: New kid on the suburban block

as a result, is especially susceptible to powdery mildew. The white “powdery” spores contrast significantly with the maroon leaves seriously detracting from the visual show … the “exclamation” point for which this cultivar was selected. There are those who would prefer we stick to native species or, minimally, North American derived cultivated varieties. I confess, Gentle Reader, that I am ambivalent on this. When we landscape our bits of this good earth, we are creating artificial constructs to please our sensibilities. Those sensibilities may also include philosophical motives for using only native plant material. From my perspective, a bad plant in a bad place is a bad choice no matter the origin of the plant; and of course, the opposite also holds true. So why would anyone plant this chappie?

Simple, they like it.

A new kid on the block, which is challenging CK, is a derivation from a naturally occurring cross between two native species. “New” is a relative term as the original plant patent for the Autumn Blaze (AB) maple was issued in the late 1960s to

Glenn Jeffers. In the text books, you will read Acer x freemanni ‘Jeffers Red’ pp 4864. That was probably too big a moniker for the advertising boffins who are all about catchy phrases so “Autumn Blaze” has become the common name. The reason I suggest that this is the new kid is that this is the first year I can remember so many customers referring to it by name. Usually they want a maple that turns red in the fall; they are vaguely aware of the native red maple, Acer rubrum, as a species, and are surprised to find that there is such a large variety.

In one book, I saw 57 different “red” maples listed as being commercially available.

In the wild, cross-pollination is common amongst compatible species and the offspring exhibit varying combinations of their parent’s characteristics. In the maple forest, silver maples (Acer saccharinum) and red maples (A. rubrum) are especially compatible and many a young sapling has resulted. Usually an arborist is the first to discover a superior cross lounging about a forest glade somewhere or, sometimes, deliberate crossing is done by a

nurseryperson just to see what happens. The latter is now the most common method of creating “new” plants. When a particularly promising offspring is noted, it is watched carefully over the years and, if deemed economically feasible, it is mass produced using vegetative propagation, or cloning. Different techniques are used but essentially a small bit of the plant is removed and grown into a copy of the “parent.”

The AB has picked up the best of both parents: fast growing but long lived, more drouth tolerant than straight rubrum, accepts wet feet better than straight silver, a central leader with branches that go mostly up, leaves of strong orange red autumn tones that hang around longer than most counterparts, maxes out at 55 feet up and 40 feet or so across, does well in most soils including clay but does like a titch of an acidic bite to it. In short, this is a versatile, adaptable tree that looks some nice. I’d buy one.

Companion plants (those that enjoy the same growing conditions) include dogwoods, viburnum, hemlock, and birch, especially river birch.

Reality Check:

The debate that won’t go away

Sheila Wray Gregoire

Lifestyles - China’s one-child policy is 30 years old now, and it’s hardly even contentious. It’s often portrayed in Canadian literature as an example of smart government intervention: a country which couldn’t feed its vast population took measures to make sure it wouldn’t become overpopulated.

But in June, 2012, 23-year-old Feng Jianmei put a face to the policy when she was forced to undergo an abortion at seven months since she was pregnant with her second child. The authorities grabbed her against her will and held her down while they abort-

ed the baby. Her husband took a picture of the grieving mother with the bloody body of her baby beside her on the bed. The photograph went viral. China had to promise to punish the people who had done it.

I can’t imagine someone ripping a baby I desperately loved from my body, just because the government deemed that I had had enough. We should have control over our bodies. Or should we?

Let’s take a CBC undercover sting that reveals the diametrically opposite problem. Last year some

A tour of California’s redwoods and wine country

natural surroundings.

John Muir, for whom this monument/area is named, was one of the earliest and most influential conservationists in the U.S., and he often talked about the importance of preserving natural habitats for future generations. Therefore, it’s not all that surprising that some of his thoughts are posted here. He himself loved to stroll through nature, and one posted sign, with words that were written originally

by John Muir, said, “In every walk with nature, one receives far more than one seeks.” Another sign stated: “I only went out for a walk, and finally concluded to stay out till sundown, for going out, I found, was really going in.”

After our walking tour among these fascinating trees, we returned to our bus and drove on into California Wine Country. It was rather

comforting to know that after our hike, we would be spending the afternoon relaxing, merely sipping pleasant wines and strolling through vineyards and wineries.

Vineyards are actually found in many parts of California, but we were to visit two of its most famous wine areas: Sonoma and Napa. After all, these two counties alone have more than 600 wineries.

Our first wine country stop was at Gloria Ferrer Winery, which was the first sparkling wine house in California’s Sonoma Carneros region.

The Ferrers arrived here from Spain in the 1980s, purchased a cattle ranch, and planted grapes. They’ve expanded since then, and their estate now encompasses 335 acres.

We toured their storage caves and property, and we sampled some of their wines.

We also went to another Sonoma Valley location, the

Cline Cellars Winery, where an 1850s-era farmhouse fronts as the tasting room, and several rock-walled ponds are found on the grounds. I spent much of my time wandering around the estate’s expansive grounds, enjoying the many roses, and checking out some of the rather comical signs that were located by the spring-fed ponds, including “Be Careful – Mud Sharks Feeding.”

I, of course, also tasted some more wine here, and I learned that this estate pioneered the planting of Rhone varieties in this region.

In addition to these Sonoma County wineries, we also spent some time in the city of Sonoma, for we had lunch here. We discovered what a dog-friendly place this was, for several pets were sitting on restaurant patios with their owners, and one dog was actually up on the table!

While in Sonoma, I wan-

Valley, an even better known wine destination, and, therefore, often more expensive. Here we visited Madonna Estate, which is owned by the Bertolucci family, one of the oldest wine-making families here (since 1922), and another tasting was in order. I also noticed a sign here that said, “You will have a crush on our grapes,” and then I actually got to wit96 Young Street, Brighton ness a grape crushpresents ing on the property.

Lifestyles - While visiting in San Francisco, my wife and I took a day trip by bus to see California’s renowned redwoods and wine country. We took the trip with Extranomical Tours, <www.extranomical.com>, and the bus picked us up at our hotel and returned us there, with its convenient door-to-door service.

We crossed the awesome Golden Gate Bridge and continued to the Muir Woods National Monument.

It’s part of the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and caters to pedestrians.

Here we were able to walk along footpaths that were surrounded by giant redwoods, many of them hundreds of years old. These are some of the tallest trees in the world, and we found that we were getting sore necks from gazing upward, trying to pinpoint the treetops well over 200 feet above us.

Yes, these trees grow tall!

As we walked along a designated hiking trail, we noticed it was cooler in here, and it seemed wetter, with more fog cover; these conditions actually help the redwoods in their growth. The old-growth redwoods definitely seem to thrive here, and Muir Woods National Monument, a protected area that’s listed on the National Register of Historic Places, contains one of the few remaining stands of giant redwoods in the San Francisco Bay area. As we continued our walk in this wooded area, we encountered a designated quiet section at “Cathedral Grove,” and here we were to simply contemplate and enjoy our wondrous

Artist Barbara Buntin’s work will be on display at the Colborne Art Gallery from October 5 to November 10. Photo: Submitted

Reality Check the baby a baby? Or is it solely the mother’s choice? And if it is the mother’s choice, then how can you then turn around and tell a man that he has to support a child he doesn’t want?

It isn’t straightforward, and it isn’t going away, as

much as the politicians wish it would. Are the unborn alive? And if so, what does that mean? Those questions are fundamental, and we will all have to grapple with them as individuals, even if the government continues to ignore them.

Through her art Buntin attempts to describe a connection to the earth; to work from an experience rather than from observation. She has been inspired by a particular line from Rumi, “When the ocean surges, don’t let me just hear it. Let it splash inside my chest!” and was interested to explore such an effect from this new landscape that took her out of familiar territory.

In Barbara’s words, “I continue to portray the human figure but I’m striving for a simpler, bolder and increasingly elemental style. The Yukon landscape may not be immediately visible to others in these figures, but I can see the influence emerging.

“There are references to the arc of the ever-present hills and mountains, the low rising sun over a deep cold layer of snow, the continuous flow of the river and an intense silence and solitude. I hope to infuse

my figures with the permanence and reassurance of the natural world.”

Barbara works with layered monoprint and collage techniques, produced largely on Japanese washi papers and her own printed work. She nearly always depicts the human figure.

She expected that spaciousness in the pieces might be a likely expression of her northern retreat time, but also discovered other surprising and diverse paths.

“Off the Map” opens at the Colborne Art Gallery October 5 and continues through November 10, along with works by other gallery artists. There is an opening reception from 2 until 4 p.m. with the artists present. All are welcome to attend.

reporters infiltrated some Canadian medical clinics and discovered that in Canada abortions were being performed based only on the sex of the baby.

The feminist response to this has been muted. Feminists are supposed to fight for women, and I can’t think of anything more anti-woman than to kill a baby simply because she’s a girl. And the effects are stunning. According to India’s 2011 census, they’re missing 37 million girls. By 2020 in China, there will be 30 million more men of marriageable age than women.

Yet how can pro-choicers protest?

They firmly believe that pregnancy is all in the eye of the beholder; if the mom wants the baby, it’s a baby. If the mom doesn’t want the baby, it’s only a fetus, and you can discard it if you want. So if a mother decides that she doesn’t want a girl baby, how can a pro-choicer argue?

We Canadians tend to shy away from debates like these because they’re socially unpleasant, and abortion is something we just can’t agree upon. Stephen Harper has been desperately trying to silence his backbenchers who want to make it a political issue, because he doesn’t want the Conservatives labeled as anti-woman. But I don’t think most Liberals would welcome the fight, either. It would be long, and it would be bloody, and most of us would rather just tune out. Can’t the abortion controversy just go away?

But it can’t. From the time a small child hears that “Mommy has a baby growing in her tummy” and a new sibling is coming, we instinctively understand that a pregnant woman is carrying a new life. The question then becomes: do we owe that life anything?

Pro-choicers told us that the debate would end soon once people realized it was all a woman’s choice. Yet the population, and especially those under forty, is becoming more pro-life, not more pro-choice, as time goes on. A recent LifeCanada/Environics poll found that 72 per cent of Canadians want at least some protection for the unborn.

The debate can never really be settled because it raises such thorny issues. Is

News - Colborne - Barbara Buntin’s trip to the Yukon late last autumn formed art works for an upcoming feature exhibition at the Colborne Art Gallery entitled, “Off the Map.” The title refers to both geography and process.

Buntin says of her work, “I seek to create resonance with the viewer through images of the human figure, blending elements of the surrounding landscape for a transformative effect.” She often represents the figure with a reference to the landscape we pass through.

So, when Barbara received a grant from the Ontario Arts Council National and International Residency Programme that allowed her seven weeks to breathe the Arctic air, she jumped at the prospect for change in the work. She intentionally chose a time that provided an opportunity to take in the change of season from fall to winter.

Lockwood suffered a severe injury in a work-related accident, his wife Mary had a kidney removed and is still doctoring for problems with the other one.

Central Hastings News reached the family by phone Sunday evening while they were on their way to Kingston for Joel’s chemotherapy treatment.

Life for the Lockwood family totally changed while on March break at Dean’s parents near Bancroft.

“We had been busy setting up the pool and getting spring cleaning done,” his mother explained. “Joel awoke the next day with a swollen leg and unable to walk. We rushed him into Bancroft hospital.”

She said the attending physician, Dr. Bishop, diagnosed a tumor. “He wasted no time. He gave us a choice of Ottawa or Toronto Sick Children’s Hospital. We chose Toronto and went right away.”

His mother said the first chemotherapy treatments did not work and his leg was amputated which removed 41 per cent of the cancer cells. “Rather than having a five-month chemo program his is extended to ten months.”

Joel said, “I didn’t know what it was at first. I just woke up and my leg was really bad and I couldn’t walk.”

He said it is the same kind of bone cancer (osteosarcoma) which Terry Fox had, and just like it did with Terry Fox, it could take over his lungs.

He is scheduled for a lung scope October 2 in Toronto to be followed by surgery.

Currently the family goes Sunday evenings to Kingston with their son.

“We need to be there a day before chemo, which is every Tuesday, so they can check his platelets; if they are good he can take the treatment, or, if not they work to bring them back up to normal.”

The family has not always been able to get overnight accommodation at Almost Home or the Ronald McDonald House and have had to rent a motel room. Hiring someone to stay with their two other children, Gracie, 11, and Hunter, 13, is another cost if a family member is not available.

Joel seemed in good spirits while explaining he is doing his school work at home and likes civics, math and geography and he also likes to hunt and fish.

His mother says he also likes to draw, “Though writing a book about the cancer experience has become his focus.”

The lower portion of Joel’s leg was reattached to the upper portion so that his ankle joint will serve as his knee and a prosthetic extension will be attached to that he explained.

Joel said this fund drive will not only help with expenses of travelling to appointments and accommodation but, “It will go to getting me a new leg as soon as I am well enough and can go for physical therapy.”

He says often times he is in pain and very sick “… it is hard on everyone, especially my younger brother and sister.

I try and stay strong for my parents and them, but, sometimes I get so discouraged.”

Donations to the Joel Lockwood trust fund may be made at the Madoc TD Canada Trust, Transit number 29682, Inst.#004, account # 6294670.

Friends and the community invite you to attend Little Oktoberfest in Queensborough October 5, and if Joel is well enough he will be there.

Officials learn challenges faced by people with disabilities

By John Campbell

News - Brighton - Wearing special glasses that made it hard to see, Councillor Mary Tadman had her eyes opened last week to just how difďŹ cult it can be to get around town for people with a disability.

With no peripheral vision and her right side â&#x20AC;&#x153;paralyzedâ&#x20AC;? as if she had suffered a stroke, Tadman said it felt â&#x20AC;&#x153;like youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re falling forwards so it makes you feel very anxious.â&#x20AC;?

Adding to her anxiety were the obstacles she encountered shopping and going to the post ofďŹ ce while using a walker as part of the second Accessibility Awareness Day organized

by Brightonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Accessibility Advisory Committee.

Tadman wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only municipal representative to gain insight by simulating a disability in the September 20 exercise designed to heighten awareness.

Deputy-mayor Craig Kerr spent an hour in the wheelchair and made a stop at the municipal ofďŹ ce and public library. Director of public works and development Andrew Drzewiecki, also in a wheelchair, went to the arena, and director of ďŹ nance Linda WiddiďŹ eld visited the YMCA in a scooter.

The event gave participants an opportunity to confront the many challenges people with a disability face performing ordinary tasks in town.

Afterward they congregated at the King Edward Park Community Centre to compare notes on their experiences.

Kerr encountered â&#x20AC;&#x153;some real difďŹ cultiesâ&#x20AC;? in his travels, They included elevator buttons less than ideally placed, a door on the upper ďŹ&#x201A;oor that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t open automatically and is â&#x20AC;&#x153;deďŹ nitely a problem,â&#x20AC;? and a heavy washroom door that â&#x20AC;&#x153;for somebody not physically strong in the upper body â&#x20AC;Ś would be virtually impossibleâ&#x20AC;? to open, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got to be an early, early priority for sure [when setting the 2014 budget].â&#x20AC;?

The Accessibility Advisory Committee recently took council to task for having done more with the recommendations it made in a report six years ago to improve conditions for people with mobility issues.

Last Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Accessibility Awareness Day might have given proposed improvements a boost.

Mayor Mark Walas, who was a participant in the 2011

Brighton Councillor Mary Tadman took part in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Accessibility Awareness Day. Her task was to pose as a stroke victim. She was helped aboard the Quinte Access vehicle by bus driver Karen Downer, on the left, and Accessibility Awareness Committee member Sandy Fawcett-Kovacs.

awareness event, said the day helped those taking part â&#x20AC;&#x153;realize the challenges that are still out there today. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot has been accomplished,â&#x20AC;? he said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much more to do.â&#x20AC;?

Kerr said in an interview that council members are â&#x20AC;&#x153;always ďŹ ghting the constant battleâ&#x20AC;? to set priorities â&#x20AC;&#x153;because thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never enough money to go around.â&#x20AC;? What he learned that day is that while the municipality â&#x20AC;&#x153;may meet the requirements for accessibilityâ&#x20AC;? set out in provincial legislation, it needs to spend time on â&#x20AC;&#x153;the little things that are [an]

unnecessary inconvenience for people with handicaps.â&#x20AC;?

Kerr said he knew something had to be done with the washroom door â&#x20AC;&#x153;but I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t understand until today just how desperately it does need to be ďŹ xed, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re ďŹ nally under way on that.â&#x20AC;?

Having taken part in Accessibility Awareness Day, â&#x20AC;&#x153;you start to understand the urgency that comes behind some of Nicole Vreeswyk, a member of Brighton Accessibility Advisory Committhe recommendations,â&#x20AC;? he said, and â&#x20AC;&#x153;start tee, goes over instructions given Deputy-mayor Craig Kerr for Accessibility rethinking other spending priorities.â&#x20AC;?

2013 Quinte Business Achievement Awards judging begins some tough decisions. There are many deserving organizations, businesses and entrepreneurs in our community,” says Bill Saunders, Committee Chair. Businesses were nominated in June by their customers, employees, volunteers and local residents.

“Every nominee is deserving,” says Stephanie Wilson, Event Co-ordinator. “They were nominated because of great business development,

community involvement or even from a positive customer experience. This event shows how much our community appreciates the development of Quinte area businesses,” Wilson continued.

Winners will be announced at the 16th annual Quinte Business Achievement Awards Gala on Friday, October 25, at the new Quinte Sports and Wellness Centre in Belleville.

The event offers an exciting

opportunity to network and dine among business professionals from across the Quinte Region. The gala is held during national Small Business Week in Canada.

“This event sold out early last year, so with only a few weeks to go, now is the time

to get your tickets,” says Saunders. Tickets can be purchased from local Chambers of Commerce or ordered online at <www.qbaa.ca> for $60.

News - Belleville - Let the judging begin! The fates of this year’s Quinte Business Achievement Award nominees now lie in the hands of the judges and the judges will have their work cut out for them. Winners will be chosen by a panel of impartial business professionals and leaders who will review the submissions next week.

“We had 100 nominees this year so the judges are in for

the area.

Tadman, who has participated in similar exercises in Brighton and Trenton and is a member of the accessibility advisory committee, said she is well aware of the problems identified.

“It’s the one thing I’m very keen and interested in getting help for those who have difficulties,” she said.

Asked if the committee’s recommendations will be given higher priority in the next budget because of council members’ heightened awareness, Tadman replied: “I absolutely hope so.”

When setting budgets, “if you aren’t really aware of how hard it is to get around when you have a disability, then it gets pushed back.”

Walas told The Independent the committee’s recommendations that have not been addressed “is purely an administrative issue, that is really not a council issue per se. We’re hoping now that we’ve really caught the ear of staff to move quicker on some of those recommendations” approved by council which have not been completed to date “for whatever reason.”
