Introducing the Launch of PROJECT DOMINO If you are looking for an expressive, spontaneous and a good wholesome artistic adventure, then Project Domino is for you. The fun of it all is that you arrive in wonder, you are then guided by award-winning, multi-media artist, expressionist and coach, Carole Jeghers, to not only share an incredible experience but to also come away with your masterpiece. This is exactly what happened at the November Focus Art meeting.

How does Project Domino work? Everyone starts with the same rectangular shape on which there are two squares, one black and one white in diptych formation (one art work made up of two parts).

Then it’s playtime. Participants are invited to select any three colours. The timer starts. On Carole’s signal, the artists begin to create fast, enthusiastic, flowing, rhythmic images. Moments later on the signal, participants are asked to stop, rotate their work and start again at this new angle; this is repeated until the work has been rotated 360 degrees.

On stop (hard to obey) the enthusiasts step back, self-critique and are given one more minute to fine-tune.

Imagine this work of art has been actualized in seven intense minutes. The artists are left surprised and surpassed by their own creativity.

In the end each individual artwork is joined in a fantastic mural formation like dominoes and can be interchanged endlessly thus recreating a new communal artistic composition.

Much like every individual forms families, friendships, and communities in perpetual motion.

Presented by Jason Setnyk News & Politics TRICK OR EAT - OHA COLLECTS 2200 POUNDS OF FOOD FOR AGAPE FOOD BANK - Cornwall Ontario

— Approximately 2,200 pounds of food was collected by the students from Ontario Hockey Academy on Halloween night for The Agape Food Bank in Cornwall Ontario. “The Agape Center plays such an important role in providing support in the Cornwall community. We are truly happy that we can play a role in ensuring the center is able to continue to meet our city’s needs”, says Principal Josh Harrison.

UNITED WAY CENTRAIDE ANNOUNCES 35 PERCENT OF GOAL REACHED The United Way Centraide of S.D. & G. has reached 35 percent of its goal for the 2013 Annual Campaign. Executive Director, Frank Rockett said “A real community effort to reach the campaign goal is underway and I would like to thank all the hard working volunteers who are making this possible. I urge the community to get behind those volunteers and make their pledge today.”

The Corus Cares Holiday Wine and Cheese is fast approaching on Saturday November 16th. Guests at this event will be treated to an assortment of wonderful wines and tasty treats, while enjoying live music and a holiday ambience. Visit Scotiabank on Brookdale and purchase your tickets to join the celebration. Scotiabank is matching the sale of tickets sold at their location up to $5,000.00 for this event. You can now contribute to the 2013 Annual Campaign online at unitedwaysdg.com, or stop by the office at 405 Fourth Street West, in Cornwall, and also by calling 613-932-2051 to donate by Visa or Mastercard.

OPERATION RED NOSE - Drinking and driving is a real concern.

Statistics state that during the past decade 2,000 lives have been lost with 50,000 people sustaining injuries. As a response, the holiday season has been targeted as an opportune time to educate and service Cornwall with the conceptualization of ORN in 2011. With the support of the Cornwall Kin Club, ORN Cornwall was able to draw in just under $5000 to the benefit of the local Boys and Girls of Cornwall. With the 2013 season right around the corner, the big focus is on growing the volunteer base. Cornwallians and Cornwallites alike, thank

you for your continued support. Operation Red Nose- Cornwall is 3 years old! So far we have completed over 453 rides and raised over $10, 000, all of which was provided to the benefit of the local Boys and Girls Club of SDG & A. This year we are back again offering our designated driver service for Cornwall, Lancaster, Long Sault, Summerstown, Martintown, St. Andrew’s West, and Ingleside.

PURE ESTHETICS ADDS NEW ELEMENT When Michelle Longtin and Denise Robertson met on the playground of St-Croix Elementary school 20 years ago, they had no idea that they would eventually be business partners.

The two friends first remained close throughout school in Cornwall and then later at the Versailles Academy in Ottawa. It was at this well respected esthetics school in Ottawa that the two young ladies started to dream about opening a business together. “We figured if we could be friends for that long, and have lived together, then we could definitely become business partners,” says Michelle. “We are both driven, and strive for the same things. We are meant to be around people.” Last Tuesday, the two ladies will kick off the next phase of their business as they open Pure Esthetics and Massage at 137 Pitt Street.

The 1800 sq.ft. salon is much bigger, offering 7 treatment rooms, as well as a nail bar, brow bar and pedicure station.

“We last expanded in 2005, and since then we have outgrown our previous salon,” says Denise. “It is time for a change, and this building gave us an opportunity to make it how we want it.” Pure will offer a complete line up of esthetic services, including facials, pedicures, manicures, laser hair removal and make-overs. These services will be rounded out with complementary products from a variety of vendors, including Eminence Organics Skin Care Line and Cornwall’s own Ground Soap.

CDSBEO TO PARTICIPATE IN ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM CAMPAIGN -The Catholic District School Board of Eastern Ontario (CDSBEO) will participate in the Elephant in the Room Anti-Stigma Campaign for awareness about mental illness in the workplace, and in the classroom. Initiated by the Mood Disorders Society of Canada, the national campaign is designed to build awareness and eliminate stigma associated with mental illness. The CDSBEO is the first school board in the province to partner with The Mood Disorders Society of Canada on this initiative.

A blue elephant, which will be displayed in schools and board locations, will signify that the CDSBEO cares about the wellness of others, and that the Board is a safe place to talk about mental health, without fear of being looked upon differently, thought of less, or punished. The initiative will help to build understanding around mental health issues, and to build a Board culture of empathy and support.

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED -Tri-County Literacy Council has a need for one-on-one tutors, willing to mentor an adult student needing help with essential skills such as reading, writing and/or math skills. Tutors meet at a time and location that is convenient for them and their students. All learners receive an assessment, along with a learner plan that identifies their goals, teaching strategies, and recommended resources. If you are interested in volunteering, contact Tri-County Literacy Council at 613-932-7161 or email: volunteers@tricountyliteracycouncil.ca .

Arts & Culture GARNET ROGERS AT ACOUSTIC STAGE - Garnet

Rogers hits the St. Lawrence Acoustic Stage in Morrisburg on November 23rd at 7pm. Hailed by the Boston Globe as a "charismatic performer and singer", Garnet is a man with a powerful physical presence - close to six and a half feet tall - with a voice to match. With his "smooth, dark baritone" (Washington Post) his incredible range, and thoughtful, dramatic phrasing, Garnet is widely considered by fans and critics alike to be one of the finest singers anywhere. His music, like the man himself, is literate, passionate, highly sensitive, and deeply purposeful.

Garnet will also be offering a Songwriting Workshop from 2-4 pm on the day of the show. Opening for Garnet will be Shawna Caspi, a guitar-picking, classically-trained folkie with a sweet-tooth for a good story, a sly lyrical wit, and a rich, powerful voice. She graced the St. Lawrence Acoustic Stage two seasons ago in an Intimate Acoustics Lineup and since then she's released her s o p h o m o re CD, Skyline, made her folk festival debut on the main stage at Summerfolk and set out on tours across Ontario, Newfoundland and Nova Scotia. She has even played in lounge car of a moving train! Tickets for this show are $18 in advance or $20 at the door (all tickets general admission). Tickets at Basket Case, Morrisburg and Strung Out Guitars, Cornwall or online via their website.

LOIC LACASSE HONOURED - Loic Lacasse stole two points for the River Kings on Sunday afternoon at the Civic Complex. On Tuesday, the River Kings star goaltender was named the LNAH’s first star of the week. Lacasse was outstanding in Cornwall’s 2-1 shootout victory over Sorel-Tracy on Sunday, stopping 47-of-48 shots in regulation and overtime.

He was unbeatable in the shootout, turning aside all three shooters he faced. He was tagged with a 4-3 loss on Friday night in Thetford-Mines. Still, he finished the weekend with a 1-1 record, 2.43 goals against average and .941 save percentage. SaintGeorges teammates Michel Léveillé (second) and Hubert Morin (third) were the other stars of the week.

Michel Ouellet (Thetford-Mines) and Francis Charette (Jonquiere) received honourable mentions.

Letters & Opinion BRIAN LYNCH IS DISPLEASED WITH THE SENATE - Dear Seeker, The ongoing Senate expenses scandal and subsequent cover up by the PMO is further proof that the unaccountable, archaic Senate of Canada with its culture of entitlement should be abolished as Canada’s NDP has long proposed. An appointment to the Canadian Senate is like winning the cash for life lottery.

Senators earn $135,200 a year as a base salary with generous benefits and expense accounts, serve until age 75, and sit in the Senate for an average of 71 days a year. The total annual cost for Canadian taxpayers to maintain the Senate is over $92.5 million. The Senate, which was established in 1867 to defend the interests of the wealthy, is useless, undemocratic, unaccountable, and costly. We do not need appointed party hacks with their sense of entitlement to write or rewrite Canadian legislation. Nor is the Senate needed to protect provincial interests which is done by the elected M.P.s and the provincial governments. We especially do not need an elected Senate in competition with the elected House of Commons. An elected Senate would be a recipe for political gridlock as they have in the United States. The Government of Canada, in consultation with the provinces and territories, should hold a national referendum on the abolition of the Senate. If the majority of Canadians voted to abolish the Senate, then it would be up to the federal and provincial governments to amend the Canadian constitution accordingly. It’s time for the outdated, discredited, unaccountable, patronage-corrupted Senate to go. As Jack Layton often reminded us: “Don’t let them tell you it can’t be done.” Yours truly, Brian Lynch.

GUY LAUZON SAYS HONOUR CANADA'S MEN AND WOMEN IN UNIFORM - I can’t think of any segment of our society that commands more respect among Canadians than men and women of the Canadian Armed Forces. These brave citizens have sacrificed – and continue to sacrifice – in the service of their country. On November 11, constituents across Stormont - Dundas - South Glengarry will demonstrate that respect at various cenotaphs. On Remembrance Day I encourage every man, woman and child in SDSG to honour the determination and sacrifices of our brave men and women of the Canadians Armed Forces both past and present. MP Guy Lauzon.

Marriage Isn’t As Hard As It Seems Marriage: It’s what happens after the wedding. Marriage is the life you build together as husband and wife when the hoopla of being “bride” and “groom” dies down. Once the celebration is over and everyone has sobered up, what you’re left with is a blank slate waiting for your future to be drawn out. How you fill that slate is up to you. Everyone always seems to say “Marriage is hard work” but maybe it’s not so hard. Maybe all you need is a little creativity and some give and take to turn that blank slate into a wonderful masterpiece.

Every relationship, whether it’s marriage, common-law, or simply a serious partnership assumingly has an abundance of love, trust, and faithfulness but there are three other, not-so-secret, ingredients that the best relationships also have: Laughter, dedication, and compromise. When you add these things in it’s as though you’ll have the icing on top of the cake.

When you marry someone you can laugh with you’ll be able to smile every day. Even after a fight, if your spouse can make you smile, then you’re on the right track.

Being with someone who makes you feel good and who you can be silly with, takes away the pressures from the outside world for that small moment in time. It’s not hard but it seems as though some relationships start losing the laughter once they’ve been together for a while. Get it back. Never stop being silly together and never let the world get so hard that you forget to laugh. Your and your spouse’s laughter should me the music that fills the walls of your home.

Being dedicated to your marriage doesn’t mean that you can’t have a life outside of the home. It means that you are dedicated to working on your relationship and always doing things to make the other person happy. Showing the other person you thought about them that day or doing a chore around the house you know the other person hates doing. It’s really the little things that prove how much you care and how dedicated you are. It’s not about extravagant vacations or expensive date nights (although those are nice from time to time) but it’s about showing your partner you love them, every day. It’s about telling them you care and are committed, through ways other than just words.

Compromise is such a key that so many couples miss out on. Sure there will always be times when you’d rather stay in your pajamas than go to breakfast with the inlaws, or maybe you’d rather watch a Sex and the City Marathon instead of the Super Bowl. But doing things together that mean a lot to your partner strengthens your relationship and when you look back on the little things you guys did for each other, it will create a deeper bond. Just make sure it’s not always just one of you doing the compromising. You both need to put in the effort for it to work, or else the one putting in all the effort may start to get resentful. This truly needs to be about give and take and the more you do it, the easier it gets.

Like everything in life that is important to us, marriage will test us. If it’s worth it, you’ll stick around and if it’s just too hard then maybe you’ll walk away, and that’s okay too.

Of course there are always some instances where neither husband nor wife understands why their marriage fell apart, and sometimes it’s events beyond their control which forced them to separate. But in most cases, it’s really just about keeping the love alive and knowing that your marriage is worth it. Sure, it may get tough but it’s not HARD work to paint that slate. After all, they tell us that if we find a job we love, then we’ll never have to work a day in our lives; so why can’t this also apply to the person we marry and the future we paint together?

NATURALLY DELICIOUS ... with the Health Nut

What a great week….. a great surprise visit from my two nieces at my shop last Saturday…Chloe and Josee Giguere….love these girls …it made my day…!!

My Halloween Adventures I visited Cannamore Orchard this evening. It wasn't the easiest thing to find, as I did not have a GPS. It was slightly expensive when compared to most of the other Halloween expeditions. However, it was well worth the cost!

There were terrors of every sort at the creepy old orchard.

From two very different mazes, to a village featuring witches, ghouls and coffins and a terrifying hay-ride lead by tractor through the brush, the night was full of screams in terror and I will definitely be visiting again next year!

McMaze was amazing. It had been years since the last time I had ventured there. The expansion that took place over time was astounding! There were four out of five mazes running, and their wagon ride was incredible. We had a 20 minute walk through their haunted forest, which terrified us.

There were plenty of screams and my companions stayed attached to me looking for protection from the horrors we faced.

The final night of my haunted adventures was spent at Cornwall’s Historic Jail and at the Fright Nights haunted walk, lead by the Grim Reaper across the street. The jail was frightening! I had been in there before during the day and I had not been unnerved at all. However, given the teens chained to the walls screaming for their lives, and more creepy aspects sprawled out through the entire maze, I was Erin Dyck-Martin actually shaken when I walked out. My of Zumba with Erin companions also were unnerved, but my son did surprisingly well, having waved at many of the teens, until he insisted on being carried.

The haunted walk was affordable--$2 got you in-- and they also accepted canned food for charity as payment. At the end of a short nice walk along the bike path, there was a corn maze set up on the Mocktails patio beside the civic center. It was fantastically done and I really hope they do it again next year.

Overall, my haunted experiences were great and were followed by a night, later in the week, filled with trick-or-treating through the town.

Now candy fills our bellies and the terror tingling nights are over for another year.

November is here and all I keep wondering is “Where did October go?” It was such a busy month. My time with my personal trainer at SLC comes to an end, and I will miss it. Although I was uncertain how successful I would be; twice a week, I’d don the fitness gear and head to the gym. I knew I had weak arms and my goal was to tone my muscles. A major part of the program was working with weights, something I always shied away from.

hese businesses?

In the end, after 9 weeks, I can see a major difference, particularly in my arm strength. This was apparent when I needed to move a heavy storage bin to a height that was over my head.

With no help in sight, I was able to do so. That is not all though, as I went through my training, the weights increased in increments and extra circuits were added. There was an overhead weight lifting pull that I used to need assistance with, and at my final class I was able to do so on my own.

These little triumphs really made me proud. I never could do a chin up, in fact some of my worst childhood memories was staring at that bar and praying that I would finally find success.

Well it took about thirtysome years, but I finally can say I can do it. The method is a bit different as we use an exercise machine, but I was able to so in 12 reps. Pushups were another struggle for me, but in the end that improved significantly, as did the plant and several other strength moves.

I always knew I had strong legs, but the exercises gave me even more strength and some guidance on how to improve. I am still blown away that I could do a leg press of 246 pounds and back leg pulls of 80 pounds each leg.

I am not the only one who felt the difference. Sure we sometimes whined on our way up or afterwards, but in all, we feel stronger, fitter and motivated.

Achieving Personal Goals

The Eastern Ontario Training Board is excited to announce the launch of a new project called EmployerOne. The project will provide employers in Stormont, Dundas & Glengarry and Prescott-Russell the opportunity to identify their occupational and skill requirements through an online survey. The data gathered from the survey will be summarized by the Eastern Ontario Training Board and shared with employers, employer associations, educators and service providers in order to develop a community action plan.

The information gathered through the EmployerOne Survey will provide the communities of SD&G and P-R with valuable information about the current workforce. The results will improve the balance between labour market supply and demand, which in turn will support local economic and social development. Employers will have access to the human resources required to develop their business, while individuals are provided with a better understanding of the local workforce requirements, which will support job search, career development and career decision making.

The EmployerOne Survey is now available for employers to complete online at the link below. Employers who complete the survey between November 2013 and January 2014 will be entered in an early bird draw and have the chance to win a ‘dinner for two’ prize valued at $150. Winners in SD&G will have the choice to experience either the European flavours of Schnitzels or the fine dining of Table 21. Winners in P-R will have the opportunity to choose between grill and bar delights of Stephanie’s or the steak and seafood haus of Stoneriver Dining.

Additionally, all participants will be entered into a draw for the grand prize of an Apple i-Pad Mini, 16GB. http://fluidsurveys.com/s/employeronesurvey2014/ For more information regarding the EmployerOne Survey, please see the news and event section on our website at www.eotb-cfeo.on.ca Alternatively, contact the project officers, Sonia and Criag at (613) 932-0210 or sonias@eotb-cfeo.on.ca / criagm@eotb-cfeo.on.ca For more info, contact:Eastern Ontario Training Board 55 Water Street West, Suite 380, Cornwall ON K6J1A1 613-932-0210 (phone) 613-932-0212 (fax) www.eotb-cfeo.on.ca EOTB-CFEO Facebook page

Congrats to the class of Fitness & Health Promotions at St. Lawrence CollegeKingston campus. We appreciate the time and effort, as for my trainer Kris Klith, well I know sometimes I was a bit too talkative, asked a lot of questions but I enjoyed every minute and will carry this experience with me.

Hopefully I won't lose the momentum.

Flanders Field

by John McCrae In Flanders Field the poppies blow between the crosses, row on row That mark our place; and in the sky the larks, still bravely singing, fly scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago we lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow.

Loved, and were loved, and now we lie in Flanders Fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe: to you from failing hands we throw the torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die we shall not sleep, though poppies grow in Flanders Field.

Three Steps You Can Take to Prepare Your Car for Winter.

By Debbie Villenuve A big part of being a car owner and a driver is making sure your vehicle is safe to drive no matter when you plan to have it on the road. We all know the weather in Canada can be very unpredictable and fall often transitions into winter before we’re ready.

Canadian drivers are often caught off guard when bad weather hits, and many are unprepared when inclement weather finally does arrive. According to Allstate data, December typically sees the highest number of collision claims in comparison to the other winter months.

Drivers can protect themselves by preparing for the winter months while the weather is still good and the roads are still clear.

Here are a few timely reminders on preparing for bad weather this fall, so that you can stay safe on the roads this winter.

1. Schedule a Check-up: Autumn is a perfect time for your mechanic to check your battery fluid levels, battery posts and cable connectors. Bad connections can keep your car from starting. Replace worn windshield wipers and ensure your defroster and heater are working properly to keep visibility clear.

2. Shop for Snow Tires: Snow tires grip the ice and road at colder temperatures better than all-season tires, and also have deeper tread patterns to push through more snow and slush as the tire rotates. If you do purchase snow tires, get a complete set. It’s important to have four of the same type of tire on your vehicle. An advantage of looking into purchasing tires during the autumn means you’ll have the chance to shop around for a set that is best for your car and your budget.

3. Assemble an Emergency Kit: During the winter, blizzards can come out of nowhere. In the event that you become stranded on the roads during a storm, it’s best to have a winter safety kit in the trunk that includes a warm blanket, flashlight, gloves, boots, flares, a good ice scraper, washer fluid, water and nonperishable foods. Take the time to prepare an emergency kit for your car before the chance of bad weather arrives.

10 % These three tips can go a long way in helping to ensure you safely get through coming winter months on our roads.

FOCUS ART ON LINE NEWS

by Rose Desnoyers

ONCE UPON A PAINTBRUSH by Patrick Guindon

SEEKING THE ARTS . SEEKING THE ARTS As the beauty of autumn fades away, and the days shorten, many of us Creatives will start to feel a bit stagnant. With snow on the horizon, it may excite some, but November really is that weird inbetween month where the beauty of nature – inspiration to so many of us – can’t be relied on.

If you have kids, you’re in luck – they are so much more creative than most of us grown ups. Even the uncreative ones can take off when given a pre-painted canvass (black or blue, or any colour they love), and then asked to use their fingers, or a stick, or to paint a dream. With music on and eyes away, they will get creating and I promise, it will inspire you to do the same.

Try this: paint some blobs and shapes. Then, use a sharpie to turn them into whatever catches your fancy! These blobs became aliens for me

Here is my approach to dealing with this month: Fill in the blanks.

Like a colouring book, this month serves as an opportunity to use our art as nature-in-ourcontrol. We can produce bright, lively, happy pieces that will help to balance the blah of the month.

It doesn’t mean that you need to paint landscapes – I’ve painted very few of those. I’m referring to filling in the blanks of inspiration, by creating your own. Try something new. Throw some paint around.

Mix some mediums you normally wouldn’t. Give yourself a weekend pass on doing your normal creating and create something exciting – something raw, where there is little thought and lots of emotional drive. Create something with loud music on, a big glass of your favourite beverage, and surround yourself with at least one or two other Creatives.

Patrick Guindon is a local Creative. He is a primary school teacher, and has made lots of creative things. You can follow him on Facebook (www.facebook.com/patrickguindonart) and on Twitter @123patrickg.

What better way to beat the November blues than hands on activities in photography or oil stick painting.

Wednesday November 6 at their regular monthly meeting members of Focus Art explored the amazing world of oil sticks, not to be confused with oil pastels. Members were elated by the versatility of the medium, which evoked the creative spirit in each. “This is great,” exclaimed Linda Geisel as she manoeuvred the beautiful colours. Not one of us arrived at the same product but through the enthusiastic guidance of Carole Jeghers, artist and art instructor, we discovered the pleasures of art play. “This is my first real art workshop” said self-taught Moïse Chartier Lasate, “and I had so much fun”.

Across the hall, a group concentrated on the possibilities of their camera with Don Mitchell offering technique and artistic guidance. Members were then invited to put to practice what they had discussed.

It’s always a good time to enjoy sweets and Adèle Constantineau tried her skills at gluten and sugar free cookies. Well done.

Focus Art meetings are always an occasion to share talent, learn new skills and make new friends. If you are interested in becoming a member visit our website www.focusartonline.org .

You are very welcome.

Positively Marlene by Marlene Baker

Hi there everyone for another week of reading Cornwall's most favorite and informational paper, the Seeker. Booyah!!! What a Week!!! I did a lot of Smiling.

By Cornwall Scrabble Director, Vivianne Panizzon

My friend Isable Comeau suggested that John and I go to the "Haunted Jail" and "Lamoureaux Park Walk," with her, last Monday evening. It was a Blast and a half for us. The students and voluteers did a marvelous job of make-up and costumes. I have to admit I screamed out twice and had many gasps throughout the walk in the jail and the stroll in the park. Mocktails had marshmallows and hotdogs readied for the public to cook over an open fire. A nice, warm way to end the evening.

I also had the chance of dressing up at four different places, for three different nights, last Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

I took on that Chance and Challege. If you know me by now you knew I would. It all started with having to "dress up" to help out my eldest daughter, Melinda and my four grandkiddies. I had to help get them ready and was in charge of handing out the Halloween Goodies. I decided to dress up in the 70's style. It was comfortable and it wasn't too scarey or sexxy for the little ones and or my eldest grandson, Lincoln. I didn't want to scare him in any way, shape or form. I then had to go back home and decide what to wear for Halloween Night itself. I settled on a "Spanish Lady in Red." I felt beautiful in this red and black satin and lace dress. I looked "Bella" in it, with my very tall, black hair, with a red rose and all the *bling* .Of course I, also wore my shiny, red-rubied, 6 inch high heels with this. I had a fun night with my friend, Annie Bouchard at the Glengarrian Pub. We didn't WIN anything, but the Fun we shared was all that mattered that night.

Some spooky Scrabble players with sweet treats were present at the Cornwall Public Library, on Thursday October 31st, the last Scrabble session for the month of October. To make this a special event, Scrabblers were encouraged to make words relating to the Halloween theme; consequently words such as coven, eek, eerie, treats, witch appeared on the scrabble boards. Don Clement won the prize by creating the word joy which added good points to his score. Everyone agreed that Don deserved the prize being that Halloween is a time of “joy” for the young and for the young at heart.

The Cornwall Scrabble Club welcomed two new players during the month of October: Lois Villeneuve and Charlie McDonald. Welcome on board!

Plans are in the making for an in-house Charity Scrabble Tournament which will be held on Thursday, December 12th. Scrabblers are in agreement that this year’s charity recipient would be Baldwin House. Participating Scrabblers are encouraged to donate a few articles to the cause. These are brought in on tournament day when a representative of Baldwin House will be present to make a brief presentation.

For this event, a special invitation is launched to all Scrabblers in the community… whether they are Cornwall Scrabble members or not. Leisurely scrabble players may bring their own Scrabble boards and pass an afternoon playing Scrabble among themselves, thereby having the opportunity to see how Cornwall Scrabble Members perform in a friendly tournament as well as having the opportunity to be more informed about Baldwin House. A few items to donate to Baldwin House would be appreciated.

All Cornwall Scrabble members are asked to register by Thursday Nov. 21st. All leisurely Scrabble players are asked to do the same. To do so, please communicate with Vivianne Panizzon, Club Director: vpanizzon@cogeco.ca 613 931 1792

Cornwall Scrabble Club members taking part in a special Halloween session.

The next evening I had to dress again to go to the Vu Night Club to listen to 'Above the Violet'. A live, Cornwall rock band, that my partner, John Lister produces. He was a Pharoah, King of Egypt (Cornwall) and Yes, I was his Spanish Queen!!! (Same dress, yes, but, different crowd, different venue.) On Saturday night, it was my best friend, Isabelle's birthday at the Glengarrian. I had to "dress up," yet again, but into something completely different...John, the same Pharoh, but me - I was a Lady Pirate with a cutlass, pirate hat and all my *blingy* booty. An evening to remember.Enjoying Good Times with Good Friends. Listening and Dancing to Good Music.

What more could I ask for??? Nothing!!! Life Is Meant To Be Lived. So Live, I Say!!! Have Lots of Fun, Laugh A Lot, Dance Every Day and Be Kind To One Another!!!

Pay It Forward has made me "Fan of the Week," once again. I love that I have been honored and mentioned for something I truly Believe in and have done all of my life. Please Pay It Forward, if only in a small way, today or tomorrow or when you are able. Thank you from me, Positively Marlene.

Until next week...

Keep Giving....

If Only a Smile...

The Montreal native was a fifth-round pick of the Carolina Hurricanes in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft.

Chaput is already familiar with a couple of River Kings forwards; he was a teammate of Alex Bourret and Pierre-Luc Faubert with the QMJHL’s Lewiston MAINEiacs.

Choose Your Role Models Carefully I enjoy older women. I like their humanity and I love their stories. There is a deeper sense of wisdom beneath those wrinkles and grey hair. And yes, like you, I have noticed that not all older women (and men) are people I would choose to hang-out with. And so it is that in our own journey of growing older, I suggest we choose role models who inspire us. Maya Angelou comes to mind for me.

Now is her late eighties, this is a woman who continues to teach andshare her stories with a self-deprecating way that is humorous and wise.

I also watched a brief film on YouTube the other day, Fabulous Fashionistas, about six older women, average age 80. In sharing their lives several things became obvious. First, each of these women had a sense of purpose, whether that was continuing to work, having a passion, or promoting a cause. As I watch my family members and some of my friends age, I realize that growing old happens quickly when there is nothing to keep you engaged, a reason to throw your feet on the cold floor each morning.

Secondly, each of these women had a sense of style, even flare. They embraced a “the hell with it” attitude that spoke of caring little for what others think or do, and simply showing up the way you are and want to be. I love that. Break all the rules, the way you are supposed to act like because someone in society said that older women should not wear miniskirts or jeans, have long hair or drink beer in public.

Thirdly, they were active. Despite knee and hip replacements, daily exercise was a must.

Dance, running, yoga, whatever it took to keep the muscles and bone moving; use it or lose it.

Yes, I loved these women.

You Know Best Whether you are 23, 45, 69 or 83, today is the day to decide what aging looks like for you.

My suggestion – don’t settle. By that, I mean disregard the expectations of others and decide on what is perfect for you. Set your intentions around what you truly want rather than what you think you ‘should’ be doing.

We are entering an era where more and more of us will be growing old together. At 63, I may be closer than some of you. Perhaps that’s why I find myself looking for those role models at the moment and making some decisions about aging with grace.

I am learning that age is largely about attitude. I have watched friends and family assume that they were no longer valuable and choose to step away. It saddens me to see them, disengaged and growing older with each moment. I have also observed the opposite, those women who continue to ‘kick ass’ regardless (I won’t name them here but you know who you are). They are artists, gardeners, writes, dancers, and most importantly, they are alive. Aging for them seems to be at a stand still.

And so I say to all of you, women of all ages, and men if you choose to join in, it is time for us to celebrate: • to be enlivened by life and never put down • to live with purpose and never give up • to be inspired and inspire others • to dress for YOU and disobey the rules • to play with your inner child and never grow up • to choose your path, what’s perfect for you, and turn a deaf ear to ‘they said’ • to work and play as you choose rather than being the norm • to re-fire rather than re-tire when the time comes.

with Marie Morrell

Recently I have found myself attracted to the stories of older women. Whether it is my own age that drives me there or simply that older women are interesting, I have yet to decide. What I do know for sure is that all of us are going to age and we have a say in how this aging will happen. And so I write this to share some of what I am observing, to explore my own journey of getting older and to share a little of the wisdom I am picking up along the way.

In Praise of Older Women

Organizing A Front Entrance And Mudroom Front Entrance And Closet First impressions are hard to ignore when you meet someone or when you enter someone’s home. Consequently, the entrance to your home must always be tidy and presentable. If you enter your home and you feel good - not stressed or overwhelmed - then it’s likely your guests will feel good too.

• You must be able to hang guests’ coats in the front closet. If you have a long rod and things on the floor are piled as high as the rod, install cube shelving stacked along the side.

• Keep only the “in-season” coats in the closet. Keep “out-of-season” coats in another closet, or in a bin somewhere else in the home.

• Consider an over the door organizer for gloves, scarves, etc. with nice labels.

• Display an umbrella stand.

• Place a bench for people to sit down on when they remove or put on their footwear.

• Choose a color for the walls that is pleasing to the eye.

• Consider installing a lamp on a timer, so the space is always well lit for you and for guests.

• •

Don’t leave the mail at the front door, deal with it right away.

Consider hanging a hall mirror to spread light and make the entrance feel larger. It’s a last minute resource to ensure nothing is stuck in your teeth before you greet your guests or leaving the home.

Mudroom (Back Entrance) A mudroom is the space most commonly use by the whole family. This is place to hang seasonal coats and remove boots and overshoes. You’ll prevent tracking in mud and water drippings from show or rain, and keep from cluttering up the main entrance.

A mudroom should have: • A bench for people to sit down on and remove or put on their footwear.

• Hooks on which to hang wet clothing, and a closet for dry jackets and coats.

• Shelves or cupboards and containers to hold small items, like mittens, hats, and gloves.

• A key holder (put a tag on keys you do not use often so that you’ll remember what they’re for).

• A plastic doormat to contain wet or dirty footwear.

• As a decor, a grouping of pictures the family likes.

• A display of mementos on a shelf or storage cupboard.

• A welcome sign or seasonal wreath on the door.

Other Purposes • A powder room for adults and children, which will keep them from tracking dirt through your house to use the bathroom.

• If near a pool, a shower and area for pool cleaning supplies.

• A shared space with the washer and dryer as part of the laundry room.

• An area for pets with various supplies or canned goods.

• A potting area, with sink, counter, and storage space for garden supplies.

Final Thoughts As one of the women in Fabulous Fashionistas noted, ageism is pervasive in society; the focus on youth and all that goes with it lingers. Reality tells us that older women are quickly becoming the majority. I say, let’s not be the silent majority!

If you want this attitude to change, be part of the change. If you don’t know how, find some role models to inform you. If you have retired, re-fire, identify a new project or cause, re-ignite your passion. Most importantly live large, be bold, and be YOU!

FILM FESTIVAL BOUND...and beyond!

Despite multiple setbacks over the months, Dr. Paul's biographical documentary film on brain cancer, named "the test of a man" (www.testofaman.com) is finally completed. The final segment of this "David and Goliath" story about overcoming life's adversities was filmed this past weekend in the Ottawa region at the Canadian Museum of Civilization's theater whereby Dr. Paul was involved a transformation challenge.

Now that the film's final editing has been completed by local producer Shaun Ryan Savard (www.playmakerstudios.com) the film has been submitted into multiple film festivals on both sides of the border as well as to key people in Hollywood and Toronto as well as at the prestigious "AFM" (www.americanfilmmarket.com) This project stems from Dr. Paul's desire to make brain cancer better known, understood and appreciated throughout North America....and beyond.

Dr. Paul has also recently been approached by Hollywood producers to "upgrade" his documentary short into a full length feature film but as he stated to this paper..."all these things have to take place in their proper order, one cannot have the cart in front of the horse and expect results". He's thus bidding his time meantime aligning his ducks but will consider transitioning the documentary short into a full blown film provided the core elements of the story remain factual. Once again, the documentary's 3 minute trailer can be viewed at either www.drpaulpoirier.com or www.testofaman.com
