Last week, Cornwall was scene to one of the biggest shows of solidarity I've ever seen.

I have witnessed this community come together in the past for fire victims or sick kids, but never at a level of this magnitude.

Lily Ryan is a 4 year old little girl who has recently been diagnosed with stage 4 RMS cancer. You probably have seen her picture and story in last week's papers.

Her mother took her to the hospital for what was believed to be some insect bite , only to end up in CHEO three days later, with a diagnosis that would forever change their lives.

To cope with the additional financial burden that comes with caring for a sick child, and to give Lily's family peace of mind as they undergo the biggest challenge of their lives, their friends and family have started a gofundme account. The campaign is doing very well and had amassed over $15,000 at the time of print. The goal is $25,000.

Others have followed suit.

The Cornwall Seaway Lions Club has given $5,000, The Seekers Choice Awards' silent auction gathered $2,000, a concert at La Maison fetched $3,800 and an impromptu car wash at Deke and Squeaks raised just over $1,000.

It is amazing to see it all come together. It is wonderful

to realize how far we can go when we all put our efforts together towards the same objective.

Lily is an inspiration. She is an inspiration not only because she is a tough little girl who faces an gigantic challenge and has not problem bravely taking it on like the ninja superhero boss fighter that she is, but also because she has come to represent what is possible and how supportive this community can be. She brings out the best in people.

For us at the Seeker, Lily symbolizes support for one another. Her story made us revisit how we do business.

We asked ourselves the questions "why are we doing this?" , "what does really matter for us at the Seeker?" and "what do we want as an end result?"

The answer to these questions is quite simple: we want to help and although we already give much to the community, we know we can do even more.

So starting this week, and until July 15, for every dollar spent by anybody who advertises in the Seeker, $0.25 will go to Lily's Fight.

After July, we will continue this trend, but will give advertisers the choice as to where they want their money to go. Agape, SASS, Baldwin House, PawPaws, OSPCA, Children's Aid, Beyond 21, Focus Art, United Way, Big Brothers Big Sisters are but a few of the charities The Seeker will be supporting.

We truly aim at being a real community newspaper, an outlet who really cares and nurtures the people it deals with. So help us. Help us help this wonderful city we live in.

Did you know ... t hat Advert ising IN THE SEEKER is NOTan expense- it 'san INVESTMENT? So what are you wait ing f or? Call Mai-Liis TODAY - 613-935-3763 ext 102 - LET'S CHAT!

CC-130J Hercul es Fl ying Over Cornwal l on Canada Day CORNWALL, Ontario ? Cornwall Canada Day Chair and local Member of Parliament Guy Lauzon announced today that a Department of National Defence Hercules CC-130J will be flying over Cornwall during this year?s Canada Day festivities in Lamoureux Park. ?It is a great honour to have this magnificent aircraft pass through Cornwall once again this year. Visitors to Lamoureux Park really enjoyed the low fly over last year, and we?re grateful that our Canadian Armed Forces are making it happen again in 2016,? said Lauzon. The Hercules aircraft will be coming from CFB Trenton and flown by members from 436 Transport Squadron. The familiar CC-130 Hercules is a mainstay of the Canadian Forces?transport fleet. The aircraft is a four-engine, fixed-wing turboprop aircraft that can carry up to 92 combat troops or 128 non-combat passengers. It is for a wide range of missions, including troop transport, tactical airlift (both palletized vehicular cargo) and aircrew training. The Hercules will fly Lamoureux Park at approximately 12:00pm, and return over the St. Lawrence minutes later on Friday, July weather permitting.

Lily Douglas is a 4 year old child battling stage four cancer. ?Tonight I am truly humbled. Cornwall came together to help a family in need and I?m proud to say I am from Cornwall. We always come together in times of need. That being said, I would like to thank all the bands and the staff at La Maison for all their hard work. The benefit for Lily Douglas was a huge success.

We raised $3812 for her,? said Rodney Rivette who is a musician and co-promoter of the concert.

The support from the Cornwall Community was outstanding! Thank you from Lily and her entire family,? concluded Randy Ravary.

BAKER Hi there to all of you beautiful, handsome and cute readers that have taken the time out of your busy schedules to pick up a ~SEEKER~ to find out what's going on in and around Cornwall and the S.D. & G. area this week. I am so happy for the ~HOT~ and sunny days that we have been experiencing over the past week... they come and go, but I, for one am very thankful for the lovely sunshine and hotter temperatures. After all the "FIRST DAY" of *SUMMER* and the LOOONGEST DAY of the YEAR was on Tuesday, June 20th. I do hope that you have been enjoying these beautiful ~HOT~ days of Summer with your loving families and awesome friends. Summer is the perfect time to visit and enjoy far away relatives and friends. MAKE IT A SUMMER TO REMEMBER!!! HAPPY & SAFE TRAVELS EVERYONE!!!

It em of t he Week: Seeing that I had to wear something Special to ~The Seeker's Choice Awards~ last Friday evening, I decided to choose a NEW pair of purple and blue butterfly shoes that came in for my birthday. (Shhhh, Which isn't until the end of next month.) I am not sure of the price that Johnny paid for them, but being so Unique & Cute... I don't care that much of how much they were. Shhh.) To match up with these lovely pair of shoes, I choose a white & purpley summery dress that I had purchased from Sears last Tuesday for only $15.00!!! NOW That's a DEAL!!! Do go to check out the deals for yourselves at the ~Cornwall Square~ Sears to see what DEAL Or Treasures You May Find For Yourselves!!!

John and I had a beautiful and relaxing Father's Day weekend by spending some quality time together (at the beach on Hwy. 2, near Ingleside) and by doing some kayaking near Hoople Creek. We were out enjoying ourselves on the cool and refreshing waters, near Hoople Creek for over 5 and a half hours. John and I did get a bit of a sunburn, but Hey, We are, after all, Canadians!!! We witnessed and photographed many of Mother Nature's beautiful creatures that crossed our paths over the weekend, such as Great Blue Herons, Red-winged blackbirds, huge Carp that had to weigh up to 40 or 50 lbs.!!! YIKES!!! I've been Carp HIT!!! (as my kayak goes in the opposite direction.) Johnny and I also saw lots of Dragonflies & Butterflies, along with swift Swallows, and protective Kingfishers, along with many other things with multi-coloured or invisible wings. I am always in AWE of what this world of ours has to offer... All one has to do is OPEN one's SENSES to Experience MIRACLES

that are both BIG & small!!! All WE have to do is be STILL ... LISTEN, and WITNESS the Wonders of OUR AWESOME WORLD!!! I do hope that you got to enjoy a wonderful weekend with your Fathers last weekend. Dads Are Important!!! Without them... None of us would be here!!!

Tip of The Week: Here are SEVEN LOVELY LOGICS TO FOLLOW: 1. Make PEACE with your PAST, so it doesn't SPOIL your Present) 2. What others THINK of YOU is None of Your Business. 3. Time HEALS Almost Everything. (Give the Time, some Time. ) 4. No One is the REASON for your HAPPINESS OR SADNESS!!! (Except YOU, YOURSELF.) 5. Don't COMPARE your LIFE with Others, YOU have No Idea what their JOURNEY is all about. 6. STOP THINKING Too Much, It's ALRIGHT Not to know all of the ANSWERS! 7. SMILE, YOU Don't own all of the Problems of the World. Smiles make for prettier girls and hansomer guys. Just Sayin'.

It was wonderful to see such a good looking crowd all dressed to the nines last Friday evening at ~Cornwall's Golf & Country Club~. John and I had a rather pleasant time chit-chatting with the lovely Julia and Mai-Liis, (the owners of the Seeker) along with many of the Nominees that attended that evening. We enjoyed drinking some fine wine provided by Bill & Jenny MacDonald of Dominion Lending Centres and a delicious supper that included chocolate cake for dessert, provided by Fairy Sweet. We also enjoyed the beautiful voice of the lovely Mena Hardy, who serenaded us before supper. Afterwards the ever so talented ~DJ Shell Shock~ ROCKED the Golf club with toe tapping TUNES until nearly midnight!!! Although Johnny Radar & I didn't win for ~Contributor of the Year~, this year, we both wanted to CONGRATULATE all of the *WINNERS* of the evening: ~McMaze~, ~Marrow and Spice~, ~Sharyn's Pantry~, Jennifer Shearer, ~Alison Wonderland Band~, Katalin Kennedy, Shannon Ferguson, Stephanie Carriere, Shelley Boisvenue & Mary Patrick. CONGRATULATIONS to all of this year's Nominees & Winners for doing such a Great & Wonderful job this year. I look forward to seeing a lot of you at next year's ~Seeker Choice Awards~!!! "Now where is my Seeker award from last year??? Oh Johnny!!!" Oh, yes... I was pleasantly surprised to see myself on the front cover of ~The Seeker~ with my lovely new friend, Esther MacDonald. It brough tears to my eyes that the Seeker Chicks, ( Julia & Mai-Liis) had featured my story on the front cover. Thank you kindly ladies for surprising me on the night of the awards. Thank you also for putting on a wonderful evening that was had by all!!!

Until Next week: The Trick Is To Enjoy Your Life. Don't *WISH* Away Your Days Waiting For Better DAYS Ahead. GO FORTH MY DEAR READERS AND ENJOY EACH MOMENT OF EACH DAY!!! KEEP BEING KIND!!!

YOU WI LL LOV E THESES DOUBLE BLUEBERRY M UFFI NS

This past Sunday morning, I st art ed t o make my husband Gary some bl ueberry muf f ins t o go wit h his breakf ast f or Fat her's Day. I was f ol l owing a recipe f rom one of my f avourit e cookbook aut hors - Ina Gart en, bet t er known as t he Baref oot Cont essa. This l ady has amazing recipes. They al ways t urn out right and t ast e good t oo. Her bl ueberry muf f ins, using f resh bl ueberries, had l ot s of cinnamon in t hem and t hey real l y l ooked and smel l ed good as I was preparing t he bat t er. I decided t o kick t hem up a not ch and as I was f il l ing t he muf f in paper l iners wit h t he muf f in bat t er, I pl ace a t abl espoon of Sharyn's Pant ry bl ueberry pie f il l ing in t he cent re of each muf f in, t hen t opped t his wit h more muf f in bat t er. I baked t hem as usual wit h great resul t s. Very good! One recipe makes 20 muf f ins. As Gary bit int o a hot muf f in, spread wit h my honey but t er, he said: 'I can see these will be in this weeks column'. Then I said t o him: 'Thank you f or giving me an opening l ine f or my col umn'.

We enjoyed a fun evening at The Seeker Awards night last Friday. Our store, Sharyn's Pantry was voted best existing business. I thank those of you who voted for us. It is my pleasure and honour to help you in my store (for the past 36 years, this fall coming) and for many more years to come. Thanks again!

DOUBLE BLUEBERRY MUFFINS INGREDIENTS: -

-

3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour 1 rounded tbsp. baking powder 1/ 2 level tsp,. baking soda 1/ 2 level tsp. Kosher salt 1- 1/ 2 tbsp. ground cinnamon 1- 1/ 4 cup milk 2 extra large eggs, slightly beaten 1 cup butter, melted 2 cups of fresh blueberries 1- 1/ 2 cups white sugar ( This is added only at the very last with the blueberries.)

1 cup of Sharyn's Pantry blueberry pie filling ( or just a bit more )

METHOD: 1.

2.

3.

4.

5.

Set your oven to 375 degrees F. You will bake on the 2nd rack from the bottom.

Line 20 paper muffin liners in your muffin tins, or spray with no-stick spray.

Sift the flour, baking powder and baking soda and Kosher salt and ground cinnamon. Do not sift in the sugar now.

In a second bowl, combine the beaten eggs, milk and melted butter.

Make a well in the centre of the dry ingredients and pour into this all of the liquid ingredients: the eggs, milk and melted butter. -Mix only to combine. Quickly stir in the blueberries and white sugar. Mix just to combine.

6. Using a scoop, fill the muffin papers half full with the muffin batter. Now take a smaller scoop ( I used my cookie scoop) or spoon and place 1 tbsp. of blueberry pie filling in the centre of each muffin. Top the pie filling with a spoonful of muffin batter.

7. Bake the muffins in the pre-heated 375 degree F. oven and bake them for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the middle of each muffin.

8. As soon as they get out of the oven, run the edge of a blunt knife blade around the edge of each muffin. to loosen each muffin. I placed them on a large dinner plate to cool slightly before serving. These are really a nice muffin and even better with the addition of some blueberry piefilling right in their centres. ENJOY!

THEN & NOW

East Front Public School in 1971; inset is Gladstone

by Don Sm it h

Bridgewood Rising This Thursday, Cornwall's East Front and Gladstone Public schools are opening their doors to the community for a Farewell stroll down memory lane. The two schools are about to merge into one under the banner of

Bridgewood on Nick Kaneb Drive in the City's east end.

Gl adst one first opened its Baldwin Avenue doors (site of a medical centre today) in 1897 to students of the school in Anderson's Ferry. In 1935, the single classroom was split in two and a second teacher was hired. 1941 saw the addition of another room. With continued growth, an army barracks was re-purposed for additional space. In 1953 a replacement school was built on the current McConnell Avenue site, which had been the southeast corner ofthe Cornwall Basic Army Training Centre # 31 (1940-44) on a section of the former Dingwall Estate.

East Front also started out as a one room schoolhouse in 1934 on the former Anderson property (Cornwall Township until 1957).

The front core was added in 1945. A new gymnasium and two additional classrooms came about in 1991.

Both schools have long histories and no doubt will continue to be fondly remembered by the community.

G e ise l PRINCIPAL SPONSORS 2016

Congratulations to Jen, an artist with a vision. We wish her happiness and success in her endeavours.

"Perpet ual Findings? Sol d Digging in doubt Peace to be sought Living the life you dreamed about Original Artwork and Poetry by Jen 16" x 20" acrylic painting

FO CUS

Jennifer is a passionate and prolific painter. Her work is inspired by the forest, music,nature and life in general. She manages to paint 2-6 hours a day while bringing up a busy little boy Damien.

Jen produces a piece of artwork every day.

Jen started painting when she was 9 years old in elementary school. She has experimented with different media such as pastel and oils. Today, her favourite medium is acrylic. She loves to paint sunsets and abstracts and most of her paintings are accompanied by short poems that capture the essence of the subject.

They help to bring the painting to life and also give an insight to the artist?s thoughts and feelings.

Jen has an ardent group of followers who value her work. She sells approximately 2 paintings per week. While most of works are sold locally in Ontario, nearly half of her works have found homes across Canada, some as far as Manitoba, Prince Edward Island and the North West Territories. She recently sold prints to someone from Ohio.

"Euphoric Dreams" Dreams and reality clash A colorful twist and splash Where colors dance Watch the hypnotic trance

You can see her work online at www.twinktrin.com. Locally, her work is displayed at the Cornwall City Hall, Mindful Cookery, Spinners restaurant and the Bus Stop Cornwall Restaurant. This summer, you will find her at local events such as the Garlic Festival and Apples and Art this coming fall in the Aultsville Theatre Foyer Gallery at St. Lawrence College.Of course Jen is also very active on her Facebook page (just search for Jen Shearer).

Original Artwork and Poetry by Jen

As an artist,Jen?s vision is to bring happiness to the viewer by instilling a sense of inner peace. Most of the messages she conveys have to do with the law of attraction, going after ones dreams and the progress and struggle one goes through. In 5 years, Jen hopes to be more well known as an artist across Canada, own a home based studio and to see her work in different galleries throughout the country.

The Bal conies, Rebel l e, and Tommy Heat l ey rock Lol a's Friday night Article and Photo by Jason Setnyk Cornwall Ontario ? The Balconies, Rebelle, and Tommy Heatley played a concert at Lola?s Pub in Cornwall on Friday night.

The Balconies, who formed in 2007, are a pop/ rock band, originally from Ottawa but who now hail from Toronto Ontario. The band started to get notoriety in 2011 with the release of their debut EP ?Kill Count?. The album was produced by Jon Drew, who also produced music by Tokyo Police Club, F# cked Up, and the Arkells. The title song ?Kill Count? received lots of radio air play. In 2014, The Balconies released their first full length album entitled ?Fast Motions?. It was produced by Arnold Lanni, who has also produced music for bands like Finger Eleven, Simple Plan, and Our Lady Peace. The band has played major festivals and they have toured Canada, the US, and Europe.

9" x 12" Soft pastels

Canadian music festivals such as North by Northesast, Canadian Music Week, and Bluesfest. They have shared the stage with musicians and bands like Lorde, Metric, and Hollerado. Rebelle were also in George Stroumboulopoulos?s top 5 picks for CBC Music Search Light 2016.

Rebelle are a really talented group of people. They?re quickly rising and growing a name for themselves in the Canadian music industry, especially being picked in the top 5 for Strombo?s searchlight competition. They played a killer show and had everybody captivated,? observed Dennison Tommy Heatley opened the concert for Rebelle and the Balconies at Lola?s.

?The Balconies are a rock n roll powerhouse! They always put on a great show. Every new album they put out takes a leap in a new direction but stays true to their roots. I?m really looking forward to their new album ?RHONDA? which is set to come out in the fall. Jacquie?s strong voice echoed through the place grabbing everyone?s attention. They had us dancing all night,? recounted Spectrasonic music promoter Sheila Dennison.

?The two bands last night had two unique styles. They are both deserving of the accolades they?ve achieved, but they are still humble enough to rock a little bar in our fine city. You don?t always see bands who genuinely love what they do, but you could see it on their faces. Even after a 5 hour car ride,? said Tommy Heatley who opened the show and who was all the sound tech.

Rebelle opened for the Balconies at Lola?s Pub in Cornwall. Rebelle, a band that hails Wakefield, Quebec, are making a name for themselves in the Canadian Indie music scene. The bands first live performance was at the legendary Black Sheep Inn. Since then, the band has played major

?Tommy Heatley is a great local musician and friend. It was nice to have him there to perform and do sound for the bands. He?ll be back at Lola?s this summer and will help us with future shows,? said Dennison.

The local musician played a terrific acoustic set himself.

First, download the Windows 10 media creation tool from Microsoft. This tool will download the correct Windows 10 installation files for your system, and help you create an installation for DVD or USB drive. Start it up and select the ?Create installation media for another PC? option to create the installer. Choose the correct type of installation media for the copy of Windows 10 that?s licensed for your PC ? for instance "Home" if you have Windows 7 Home or " Professional" if you have Windows 7 Professional. Select your language and whether you want the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows. Most people will want the 64-bit version, but you can create installation media that includes both, and the installer will automatically select the most appropriate one when you use it to install Windows on a computer.

Partition your system drive however you like. This is a chance to start with a fresh layout if you want. Make your selections and then let Windows 10 install itself accordingly. After you log into your new, cleanly installed Windows 10 system, it should automatically activate itself after you connect to the Internet. To ensure it activated correctly, open the Start menu and click on Settings. click the Update & Security button, and go to the ?Activation? tab. Verify that you see ?Windows is activated? here. Also, note the edition of Windows 10 you have installed ? either Windows 10 Home or Windows 10 Pro - based upon your previous version of Windows.

Once Windows 10 has been activated, you can install the device drivers and then your software. After that is done, you can copy over your data files to their correct locations. Use every program, extensively, to ensure everything works.

If the above process sounds a bit tricky to accomplish, take your computer to your trusted local computer retailer and have them do the work.

Install Windows 10 from the installation media like you would any other operating system. Restart your computer with the USB drive or DVD inserted, and boot from that device. You might need to change a setting in the BIOS, access a boot menu, or use the ?Use a device? option in the advanced startup options on a modern Windows 8 or 10 device that includes UEFI firmware instead of the traditional BIOS. Select ?Install

Enter your Windows 10 key at the activation screen,. If you don?t have one, but you have a valid 7, 8, or 8.1 key, enter it instead. When you install and activate Windows 10 on a system for the first time, the installer confirms that you have a ?genuine Windows? system installed and registers your hardware with Microsoft?s servers. Go through the setup process until you see the ?Which type of installation do you want?? screen. Select the ?Custom? option to ensure you?re performing a clean install and not an upgrade install.

m ed

Last week we had you make backups of your hard drive and data files and have the driver and software installation media and license keys ready for a clean installation of Windows 10. Once that is done, you are ready to begin the process. Make sure you have blank DVDs or a 32 GB USB drive ready.

Now? once the Windows installer starts.
