Pittsburgh residents urge city to relocate community centre By Bill Hutchins

News – The city is moving ahead with plans to construct a new $8.5 million community centre in Kingston East, despite strong opposition over its location. Over 100 people packed the Kingston fire hall on Gore Road May 26 to denounce city council’s selection of Grenadier Park. The proposed 20,000 square foot facility - catering to families, youth and seniors - will be situated just north of LaSalle Secondary School off Highway 15. “I’m not against a community centre, just against where they are putting it,” said east end resident Pam Overby. Others also decried the loss of park space to build a community centre. “Everybody’s into saving Doug Fluhrer Park. Nobody wants to save Grenadier Park,” observed resident Mark Murphy. City officials were peppered with questions from the sometimes boisterous crowd at a town hall style meeting hosted by Pittsburgh district councillor Ryan Boehme. Some wanted to know when the decision was made to select Grenadier Park over other locations, while others complained they knew nothing about the site selection process until after it was over. “Lots of us have never heard of the meetings before,” said Overby. The Grenadier Park location, one of four sites evaluated by city staff, was identified as the preferred site because of its central location, pedestrian and vehicle accessibility, and its proximity to the high school. Councillors voted 13-0 last March to proceed with the location and to launch a new round Continued on page 4

‘Capitol’ idea; Developer unveils plans for 18 storey condo in the downtown By Bill Hutchins
News - A Waterloo, Ont.-based residential developer has unveiled bold plans to construct one of downtown Kingston’s tallest condominiums, to be called The Capitol. But he’s going to need community and political support to get it off the ground. Darryl Firsten, president and owner of IN8 Developments, wants to erect an 18 storey building on the site of the Empire-Capitol 7 theatre at 223 Princess Street. IN8 purchased the vacant theatre for $2.2 million in February. “I could not be happier to date. Everyone we speak to is in agreement that downtown Kingston needs intensification and this is just a perfect site to do it on,” he told reporters. Firsten unveiled his tall vision for The Capitol, complete with artist designs, to a warm and enthusiastic reception from business people at a spring meeting of the Downtown Kingston Business Improvement Area (BIA) on May 27. “It’s fantastic news for the downtown,” beamed Doug Ritchie, the BIA’s managing director. Others also applauded the concept. “I’m very pleased to see this project. This is what we need downtown,” said veteran business owner Gary Poupore. But the devil could be in the details of the project, which will tower over the low-rise buildings that line Princess Street.
Firsten confirmed that he’s filed an application with the city seeking permission to relax the municipal height restrictions. Current zoning in the area allows for a maximum 10 storey building. But he says the 18 floor condominium will be located almost a block away from Princess Street due to the depth of the old theatre property. “This is really a Queen Street building,” Firsten told the crowd. He added: “We’re not building out to the full setback limit. So we’re looking for a taller thinner building as opposed to a large wider building.” The initial concept design reveals the project will have 4 levels of parking for 132 spaces; one level underground plus a three storey podium for above-ground parking. The 15 floors above that will have 223 one and two-bedroom condo units, each ranging from 450 to 850 square feet. The sleek glass and brick design also includes bal-
conies. The building will feature amenities such as a fitness centre, rooftop terrace, theatre lounge and ground floor retail. It will house about 325 residents and will cater mostly to young professionals in the 18-40 year old demographic. Most of the units will sell for between $250,000 and $350,000, but a few units will be listed at $450,000, explained Firsten. “Most pedestrians will come in from Princess Street entrance and vehicle access is from Queen Street.” Ritchie says locating the hi-rise project along Queen Street, with the main entrance through the front doors of the old theatre on Princess Street, is a brilliant idea. “It’s a wonderful concept preserving that art deco movie theatre as the front lobby of a condo building that’s built on Queen Street is just genius.” IN8, which has built 1,000 residential units in other cities, says Kingston was chosen for its latest project because of the city’s
own push for intensification. Added Firsten: “We’re talking about vacancies on Princess Street, businesses struggling, they need more people. They need residents to live here, shop here every single day.” Ritchie agrees the downtown needs more residential growth to keep it vibrant. He doesn’t think an 18 storey building will ruin the historic downtown’s low rise character, adding provincial policy strongly encourages cities to embrace intensification. “It’s a new height, but there’s going to be three or four more proposals like that coming in the next year and they’re all going to be asking for about that height,” he said, referring to pending housing projects by Homestead on the North Block lands. He adds repurposing the vacant 90 year old theatre is better than letting it remain empty. “It’s a big blank wall with a dumpster in front it right now on Queen Street, and it’s a pretty grand looking (condo) building to me.” The developer says he’s not worried about future battles with the community, and a potential Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) challenge, over the soaring height. “I think a lot of OMB appeals come from people not knowing what’s going on. Our goal here is to get the message out to the public. We’re speaking to everyone. This is a no secrets, no surprises project.” Firsten also has ambitious timelines. “We’d like to move fast. Our goal is to start construction mid-2016 and it’s a two year build out so we’re hoping to be occupied by mid-2018.”

Local in-game host goes international By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
Pan Am Games - These days, attending a sporting event is about so much more than just watching the game – it’s a lively, entertaining experience built by everything from the music playing to the energy of the crowd to the mascot’s shenanigans. Here in Kingston, Chelsea McDermott knows a thing or two about working a crowd; the Kingston Frontenacs’ Game Operations Manager and In-Game host gets fans pumped up in between play during all of the team’s home games. Now, her talents have been recognized at an international level; this summer, McDermott will be heading to the Pan Am Games to bring some extra excitement to the women’s indoor volleyball events. “It was kind of crazy because I wasn’t really expecting it,” she says, explaining that her name was put forward without her knowledge by contacts she made when working the in-game show for a couple of Toronto Maple Leafs games last year. “I got an email mid-February completely out of the blue and then it was quiet until mid-March when they asked me for a demo reel, so I
sent that off.” McDermott was told she would hear back in May, and four days before the end of the month she learned she had the job. Her goal will be to make the experience of the games as exciting as possible for fans. “When you have a packed arena and fans are cheering, your food tastes better, your drinks are colder, everything is much more amplified. What a lot of companies are trying to do is build up that game experience and that I think is what my role will be with the Pan Am Games - helping build up that experience for all of the volleyball events, from exhibition right through to the finals.” Ironically, McDermott notes that she’s never been much of an athlete herself. “I was always a very klutzy individual growing up, so theatre sports was as active as I got,” she laughs. “I was very good at freeze frame in drama class.” Thus while she admits she doesn’t have a whole lot of experience with the actual sport of volleyball, she’s excited for what this opportunity will bring. “I’ve only gotten to know hockey since working with the Frontenacs and now I really understand it and
have a passion for it.” McDermott will head down to Toronto’s Exhibition Centre for a broadcast rehearsal on July 15 and stay for “10 days of downtown action packed fun” July 16 – 26. While she says it’s unlikely you’ll catch a glimpse of her on the television broadcast, you can follow her experience on Twitter (@ChelsMcD) and Instagram (ChelsMcD), where she’ll be sharing photos and observations. “I really wasn’t expecting it so to be chosen (for this role) is flattering, exciting, a little nerve-racking – a bit of everything,” she says. “I’m sure it’s going one of those whirlwind rides that’s over before I knew it began.”

nity centre users. This would free up more park space in order to locate the building a little closer to the high school property, Hurdle explained. A handful of residents spoke in favour of the project while chiding their neighbours for not attending public meetings last year that resulted in the park’s selection. “They’re complaining over nothing,” said Audrey Cole. She says the city’s east end needs a central community centre. “Don’t you think it’s about time? I’ve lived here for 36 years and we were told we’d have one.” The decision to build in Grenadier Park caps a two year search for a new community hub to serve the fast growing east end. The lack of public amenities in Pittsburgh was also cited as a reason for amalgamation frustration during the last council when some complained the east end district wasn’t getting its share of tax-funded services. While more consultation is held to finalize the design and amenity space, construction on the new centre is expected to start in two years, said city officials. Opponents of the location say that will give them some time to try and change council’s mind. “Once the park is gone, it’s gone. Once you pave it, it’s gone,” explained Murphy, a Grenadier Drive resident, who is fighting to preserve green space. He says they’ve already collected about 400 names on a petition to relocate the facility to other city-owned land on Innovation Drive in the St. Lawrence Business Park, which was the city’s second choice for the centre. Explained Murphy: “We’ve got a battle on our hands to try and change their minds.”

ArtsVest wraps up a successful first year in Kingston mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News –Partnerships in a community are important, perhaps especially those between cultural organizations and businesses; artsVest works to make these partnerships a little easier. The initiative launched in Kingston last June and a year later its success can be seen throughout the community. “Over the past year 18 arts organizations created 70 partnerships with Kingston businesses,” said Claire Hefferon, national artsVest program director. “Of those partnerships created, 66 were first time partnerships and that really shows the impact this program can have.” The artsVest program is part of Business for the Arts and works to provide training for arts and cultural organizations through workshops that teach organizations how to seek out sponsors and build lasting relationships with them. The program gives funds to organizations while also providing them with an incentive to go out and seek sponsors. ArtsVest had $85,000 to give to organizations in Kingston and each group that attended the initial workshop could apply for up to $5,000. On top of that, artsVest matched any dona-
tions that the organizations received from businesses following the workshop. The final numbers for the year were announced at a wrap-up reception at the Tett Centre on May 27. Overall, the 18 arts organizations involved in the program raised $102,000 in sponsorship funds and after coupling those with matching funds from artsVest, the community impact of the program was $176,349. “We are very happy to see these results after the first year,” said Hefferon. “We call this a wrap celebration, but we really hope that everyone can take this energy and success into the community and continue to grow this success.” Groups like H’art Centre, Kingston Association of Museums, Kingston School of Dance, Theatre Kingston and Kingston Writersfest were participants in the program and some spoke of the relationships they built through artsVest. “ArtsVest allowed us to reach out to businesses in the community to create what we hope is a lasting partnership,” said Barbara Bell, artistic director of Kingston Writersfest. “We always wanted to do something special for our visiting authors, but we were always really limited in terms of funds. artsVest allowed us

to make a connection with Kingston Thousand Islands Cruises and they sponsored a cruise for authors and in town sponsors.” The cruise was a huge success and Bell hopes that the partnership can continue for many years to come and benefit both parties as well as the city. “We wanted to be able to show off our city to these authors who go off and become ambassadors for the city after Writersfest and this really allowed us to do that.” Hefferon hopes that success stories like this will continue in years to come and commented that she looks forward to hearing about them. “The program really helps build a stronger community and I think that can clearly be seen in Kingston now and going forward.” For more information about artsVest visit www. artsvest.com

City, school boards agree to create new political organization
This ad space was generously donated by:
By Bill Hutchins
News – They’re both elected by the same voters, but operate in different worlds and mandates. Now, there’s an effort to bridge the divide between city councillors and school board trustees through a newly-appointed political group. Local school boards have signed on to a new partnership with the City of Kingston to discuss topics of mutual interest. The so-called Kingston Algonquin Limestone Partnership Table (KALPT) plans to meet three times a year with representatives from city council, Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board and Limestone District School Board. The mayor says he welcomes the improved dialogue. “It’s always good to talk. If we can identify opportunities to work together and other partnerships and essentially preserve good communication between these different governing bodies that’s positive for sure.” Council and the two school boards will each appoint three members to serve on the advisory group. Councillors Jim Neill, Jeff McLaren and Rob Hutchison will be the city’s members. The KALPT will be led by three co-chairs, one from each organization. It was set up at the invitation of councillors who want to improve cooperation and collaboration with their trustee counterparts. “This motion is about breaking down silos between the institutions,” said Coun. Rob Hutchison, who spearheaded the initiative. Council recently approved the terms of reference, which the school boards are expected to endorse as well. The group’s official mandate is

to “facilitate the sharing and discussion of information, ideas and practices of mutual interest and benefit to the member organizations.” While the nine-member group is expected to discuss a variety of topics, the recommendations are not binding on any elected body and are subject to the “policies, practices and legislative requirements of each organization.” The school boards made it clear this will not be a committee of the City of Kingston. Each organization will take turns hosting the thrice annual meetings. Despite optimism surrounding KALPT’s creation, several councillors had earlier voiced concerns the councillor-trustee group could become unwieldy and may not be able to accomplish much because the two school boards represent much larger geographical regions. They also worry that creating another political organization could siphon staff time and resources and become a costly endeavour. The tri-party organization has agreed to review its effectiveness after the first year to determine whether it’s a useful exercise. Topics that may come up for discussion include the future of mothballed schools that could be repurposed for housing, recreation or cultural uses, according to Coun. Hutchison. The city and school boards have worked together on mutual projects in the past without the need for a formal working body. That includes the ongoing Rideau Heights rejuvenation with a community centre, joint funding for the Caraco trackand-field beside the Invista Centre multiplex rink, plus sharing resources in the planned Pittsburgh community centre next to LaSalle Secondary School.
Former Novelis lands earmarked for new business park prior to the development’s completion. Overall, local planners support the project saying it represents good land use planning and will promote economic development, adding: “The proposal is consistent with the Official Plan.” However, they are recommending that a 30 metre no-construction buffer zone be established between the business park and a nearby wetland on Novelis property, which is designated as an environmental protection area. Details such as landscaping at the site, motorist, transit and pedestrian access, plus the design and location of the commercial buildings are to be finalized during a future site plan meeting. It’s the second major business park plan to surface along John Counter Boulevard in the past few months. Council recently approved a commercial/retail development from Fort Henry Investments Inc. to construct nine small-scale office buildings with about 11,000 square metres of total floor space - along with a gas station, convenience store and car wash – on vacant land across the street from the city’s bus terminal. The business park would be built on a rectangular-shaped lot covering nine hectares on the southeast corner of John Counter Blvd. and Leroy Grant Drive.
News – Another chunk of the former Novelis property is poised for a new commercial development. City planners recommend approving an application from Ottawa-based Driveway Realties Limited to create a business park on the southeast corner of John Counter Blvd. and Sir John A. Macdonald Blvd. The developer wants to construct several low-rise commercial buildings covering a total of 22,000 square metres on about seven hectares of vacant land at 1370 John Counter Boulevard. “The applicant is proposing the development of a Business Park with a total of approximately eight (8) buildings,” according to a planning department report. The proposed development cleared its first political hurdle when it was endorsed by the planning committee May 21. City council will have the final say on the rezoning application, which could happen as early as June. Driveway Realties Ltd. intends to construct one-to-four storey buildings behind the existing Ultramar gas station, covering a large swath of shrub lands flanking both John Counter Blvd. and Sir John A. Macdonald Blvd., with a possible future road link to Hyperion Court. An independent planning justification report, submitted by the developer, says the site is served by two major arterial roads and the area is primed for business growth. “The proposed development is in an area anticipating exactly this type of deTHE CORPORATION OF LOYALIST TOWNSHIP velopment,” according to FOTENN invites submissions for the following: consultants.

Smoking continues to be a major concern, affecting the health of a substantial proportion of the population. Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates nearly 18 out of every 100 adults aged 18 or older in the United States currently smoke cigarettes. That equates to an estimated 42.1 million people. Smoking is the leading cause of preventable disease in the United States, annually contributing to roughly 500,000 deaths. Although smoking rates have been on the decline, public health officials believe there is still more to be done, including educating youth about the dangers of smoking. Those who already smoke may be interested in quitting the habit once and for all. The following are some of the more popular smoking cessation methods. · Vaporizers and e-cigarettes: Vaporizers and ecigarettes involve inhaling water vapor through various devices. The vapor contains nicotine and can be customized based on the desired

cording to SmokeFree.gov, certain NRT products can double a person’s chances of quitting for good. But such products are not designed to be used long-term as replacements for cigarettes. · Prescription medications: Individuals who seek help from their doctors as they attempt to quit smoking may be prescribed certain medications to help reduce their urges to smoke. Commonly used medications include bupropion and varenicline. Bupropion, also known as Zyban®, helps to reduce nicotine withdrawal symptoms and the urge to smoke. Varenicline, commonly known as Chantix®, can stop smoking urges and block the effects on the brain from nicotine. These medications should be used under the guidance of a doctor, and patients should be aware of possible side effects. Cigarette smoking is a habit that can have profound effects on personal health. Quitting gives people the best option to prevent serious illness. There are many cessation therapies available to help smokers kick the habit.

nicotine level. Vapor does not produce any secondhand smoke and can be relatively odorless. Individuals are increasingly turning to e-cigarettes and vaping products as an alternative to traditional cigarettes and as a means to quitting. The FDA does not presently regulate electronic cigarettes and vaping liquids, nor are there any large scale, longterm studies that prove the efficacy of e-cigarettes as a smoking cessation method. More large trials are required before vaping products can be recommended to people looking to quit smoking. · Nicotine patches: Nicotine patches can be effective at helping smokers get past the physical withdrawal period of quitting smoking. The patches deliver nicotine in select doses and ease the physical and emotional effects associated with quitting as part of an approach called nicotine replacement therapy, or NRT. NRT products are primarily used in the first few weeks following cessation from tobacco and can be more effective than going cold turkey. Ac-

Editorial
My evening of slow parenting
Editorial - For me, trying to find joy in parenting amid all the reasons there are to be anxious can be a challenge. I’ve written before about how when Summer was a baby, I tried reading parenting books; these only made me more anxious. Why wasn’t she responding to this sleep training exercise like she was supposed to? Why did she have no interest in that enrichment exercise intended to help her brain develop? Does that mean I need to get her tested? Etc. I thought things would get better as she got older and developed the ability to communicate. Now I can talk to her and know she’s doing just fine, which helps, but there is still so much conflicting information out there. For example, am I doing her irreparable damage by letting her play Endless Alphabet on the iPad? My instinct says no but many people (and apparently some studies) disagree. Moreover, I used to think getting your three-year-old into the right pre-school was a stress reserved for those living in Yorkville or New York City; recently I learned that nope, people right here in Kings-
ton have to worry about this too. Should Summer be taking some sort of the toddler entrance exam to see if she’s enough ahead of her peers to qualify for this supposedly amazing opportunity to get even more ahead? What does it mean if she doesn’t pass the test? Some people thrive on this kind of thing, but personally it drives me bonkers and threatens to ruin my ability to enjoy being a mom. Perhaps that’s why I’ve become uncharacteristically interested in a new ‘movement’ called slow parenting, which encourages parents to stop trying to schedule every second of their kids’ lives and simply be in the moment. I spend a lot of time working and often try to compensate for my lack of presence by cramming as many fun activities as possible into the time I spend with Summer. I’ll arrange for us to go to a show or a friend’s house or out for a smoothie. No matter where we go, I always feel like I’m hurrying her along because we’re late or the movie’s about to start or really for no logical reason whatsoever – hurrying just seems to be my natural state. The other night, after reading about slow parenting, I tried something a little different. Summer and I were spending the evening together just the two of us and I decided to let her dictate what we did. I always think of her as being a high-energy child, so I was surprised at how relaxing – almost meditative – the experience was. She drew pictures for

In Our Opinion about half an hour, then she wanted to go to the park. She spent most of the time at the park in the sandbox making, among other things, a birthday cake for me out of sand with sticks for candles. (She continues to wish me ‘happy birthday’ on a daily basis. It’s become a bit of an in-joke.) We picked some lilacs and she announced that she wants to plant a “purple flower tree” at our new house. We visited the nearby swamp to look for frogs, turtles and ducks. Often, caring for a small child is a stressful task. They’re easily upset and don’t like to hear ‘no’. My evening of slow parenting reminded me that it’s not the end of the world if Summer wants to stop and examine every single pine cone we see on our walk, or has dozens of random questions unrelated to the main storyline when we’re reading a book. Most of the time when I tell her ‘no’ it’s not because she’s doing anything wrong, but because I lack the patience to slow down to her pace. This leads to unnecessary anguish when I deny her the time she needs to take things in. So who knows, maybe my first foray into parenting books in over a year will be to read more about slow parenting. Or maybe I’ll just try to apply the basic principles during the time I spend with Summer. Either way, I’m happy to have found a hip parenting philosophy I can relate to that actually improves my relationship with my daughter and my experience as a mother.
How many is too many when it comes to concussions? Editorial – Concussions are becoming more and more common in sports games, especially at the high school level. Previously, there was no clear management strategy when it came to concussions on sports fields in Ontario schools, but by September 2015 there will be. The new strategy and implementation comes as a result of a coroner’s inquest into the death of 17-year old Rowan Stringer, who died four days after a rugby match in May of 2013. It was later determined that Stringer died after suffering a third concussion in less than a week. Sadly, concussions and lack of treatment are not uncommon and according to CHEO emergency physician and concussion specialist Dr. Roger Zemek, they are still on the rise with CHEO seeing two to three concussion cases a day. The new strategies hope to prevent further increases and will include education about the definition of concussions, assessment rules and rules on determining when it’s safe to return to play. All school staff will need training on these protocols, but is that enough? Stringer’s mother has gone on record saying that she would like to see schools teach mandatory concussion education for students in Grade 9. The referee from Stringer’s fatal game has also added that he would like to see injuries become a part of score sheets at the end of each game to track injured players and create a database. Both of these strategies would surely add to the level of safety on the field, but would it change the mindset of the players enough? The kids participating in these sports look up to professional sports stars. They want to be just like them and unfortunately professional sports aren’t setting the best example when it comes to concussion strategies. A few years ago the world watched as hockey legend Sidney Crosby returned to the ice after a concussion. He was treated like a hero for his bravery and commitment to the sport, but what sort of message does that send to younger athletes? Concussions are serious and should be treated seriously on and off the sports field. It is clear that more needs to be done to prevent serious incidents like Stringer’s and hopefully new programs will help with that, but it is also clear that the importance and value we place on sports may need to change too. Students should not be afraid to admit to injuries and should not be taught that it’s okay to play through them. Health should be a number one priority when it comes to sports and until that happens, concussion statistics will continue to rise.

Cycling for climate change By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – At the age of 80, Jean Nelson still loves cycling. She also loves her children, grandchildren and the environment. But she doesn’t love the current government’s inaction when it comes to environmental issues and climate change. “If you are like me you just cannot help but feel that this is a disaster on its way and we must do something,” said Nelson. “You can’t have the feeling that there is nothing you can do. Even if it is a small step, we need to do what we can to move in the right direction when it comes to climate change.” Nelson’s small step isn’t so small. On May 23, she set off on a cycling trip from Toronto to Ottawa with friend Keith McNeill to raise awareness for climate change. Both McNeill and Nelson are from Clearwater, BC, but McNeill came up with the idea for the journey after attending a Citizens Climate Lobby (CCL) event last year in Ottawa. “We went there to approach MPs and government officials about the CCL’s Carbon Fee and Dividend Program,” explained McNeill. “I wanted to do something more to raise awareness and I came up with a bike ride. I asked Jean to join and here we are.” The CCL’s Carbon Fee and Dividend is a policy proposal to internalize the costs of burning carbon-based fuels. It would work like a carbon tax, but instead of the money going to the government revenue it would be distributed as equal dividends to Canadians. McNeill started a petition on his own in January to get Canadians on board with the program. He has already collected 28,000 signatures and he hopes to collect more on his journey to Ottawa. The duo began their journey on May 23 in Toronto and on May 28 they
made a stop in Kingston for the day. “The ride has been pretty good so far,” said McNeill. “It has been tough physically, but meeting people and informing them about our cause and the petition has been great.” Nelson has also enjoyed meeting new people along the way and sharing her passion for climate change action. “We met a young man in Oshawa who just completed a degree in Environmental Physics. We stopped to ask him for directions and he was very interested in what we were doing,” she said. “He signed the petition as soon as he got home and that was really wonderful and encouraging.” McNeill and Nelson are hoping to get to Ottawa for June 2 and they plan to meet with Cathy Orlando, director of CCL Canada at the Centennial Flame in front of the Parliament Buildings. “We will have all the names from the petition on memory cards and those will be passed on to the party leaders,” explained McNeill. “Ultimately I’d like to see a referendum in Canada on a carbon fee and dividend and I hope this will contribute to moving that forward.” Nelson would like to see the issues surrounding climate change become a ballot issue in the upcoming election and she hopes each party will present clear ideas. “I would very much like to see each one of the six parties in Ottawa come up with a policy or at least some comments about how they feel about a carbon fee,” she said. “These issues can’t be ignored much longer and we need action.” To sign McNeill’s petition and find out more about the Carbon Fee and Dividend visit http://www.thepetitionsite.com/850/161/365/petition-for-a-referendumKevin McNeill and Jean Nelson stopped in Kingston on May 28 on their way to Ottawa. on/ Photo/Mandy Marciniak

Shout Sisters raise funds for local music organization at annual concert Events – Music can be very powerful. It can open people up, allow them to express emotion and help them relieve stress. Georgette Fry is a big believer in the power of music and in 2002 she started ‘Shout Sister!’ – an all-female choir that meets once a week to perform together and have a good time. “I was teaching music at the time and a student inspired me to start the choir,” explained Fry. “I decided that I would just arrange a song to see if it would work and in two hours we had the five different parts working together and it was fantastic.” The idea took off and now there are 18 different ‘Shout Sister!’ choirs across Ontario. Fry leads three of them and others are led by like-minded musicians. In Kingston there are two choirs, both with about 80-100 members and an extensive music catalogue of approximately 80 songs. Fry runs 10-month sessions each year; in that time they learn 18-20 songs and pay a small fee to join. “Our philosophy is really that singing is healthy and we want as many people as possible to be able to participate so we keep costs as low as we can,” said Fry. “Anyone is welcome to join the choir and there are no nerveracking auditions or singing tests. I work to keep the songs fun and the arrangements easy and the choirs don’t compete or travel, but we do hold an end of year concert each year.” The annual concert is always held at Sydenham Street United Church and each year the choir picks an organization to sing for. Fry likes to focus on local non-profit organizations and this year Music Mates Inc. is the chosen recipient. “Music Mates is a group that uses music to teach life and social skills to kids with social and special needs,” explained Fry. “They teach concepts like sharing through music. That is exactly the kind of thing I like to support.” The group runs small music groups throughout the Kingston community that involve singing, instrument play, the use of sign language and musical games and activities. Programming is designed to encourage social skills and create friendships –things the Shout Sister! choirs try to do too. “We create friendships through music here too. Women come from all different walks of life and situations and we create a cohesive group and undoubtedly some friendships too,” said Fry. The group hopes the concert will be a sell out and they look forward to performing in front of an audience. According to Fry, the larger number of members makes even the most selfconscious singers feel more comfortable and some find they love to perform. “Many of the women that come are amateurs and may be shy so it is easier to blend in with a group. We want the
women to relax and feel safe,” said Fry. “We want them to try things and see what they can do and above all we want them to have fun.” For Fry, the best part is arranging the different pieces of music and working out the harmonies. She also loves seeing the energy that is created by the group and the smiles on faces as they leave week after week. “The overarching theme of this group is really peace, love and understanding. We all want to be nice to each other and support each other and I think women really leave here feeling that.” The Shout Sister! end of year concert takes place at Sydenham Street United Church on June 9. Tickets are $10 and children under eight are free. Tickets are available through choir members or at the door. The show starts at 7:30 p.m. For more information about the Shout Sister! choirs in Kingston visit www.shoutsister.ca

Students learn to how to reduce, reuse and recycle their electronics By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – Over the years recycling things like paper, plastic containers and pop cans has become a way of life, but what about electronics? Electronics can be recycled too, but only 12 per cent of electronics are in fact recycled each year; ‘Recycle Your Electronics’ hopes to change that statistic. The program, run by the Ontario Electronic Stewardship, recently embarked on a 32-school educational tour about the importance of recycling electronics and on May 26, they visited Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic School in Kingston. “Our job is to go out to the schools and inform the students because they are the ones using the majority of the electronics today,” explained Samantha Damiani, one of the members of the educational tour. “We want to show them why they should be recycled and why we shouldn’t just keep them in a drawer gathering dust or toss them in the garbage.” The 45-minute Recycle Your Electronics presentation works to show students that there are many valuable resources in electronics that can be recycled, however, if those resources end up in landfills they can be harmful to the environment. “I was really surprised to learn what was in my cell phone,” said student Madeline Legge following the presentation. “I didn’t realize that there were so many hazardous chemicals in phones that can cause issues for the environment and I was happy to learn that they can easily and safely be recycled.” Chemicals released from mobile phones in landfills can include antimony, arsenic, beryl-
lium, copper, lead, nickel, mercury, manganese, lithium, zinc and cadmium. Even in small amounts, these hazardous chemicals can cause environmental contamination, affecting waterways and wildlife. Currently, 70 per cent of the toxic waste in landfills comes from electronics. “We hope that students will take this knowledge into their own hands and do something with it, but whether they do or they don’t at least they are informed now,” said Damiani. “They may go home and tell their parents about the presentation or another friend and then the knowledge builds from there and we have more and more people who are aware of the issues and the need to recycle.” Along with the presentation, each school on the tour is invited to become an electronic recycling center for their community. Recycle Your Electronics will drop off a collection box and then pick it up when it’s full, and they offer an additional incentive too. “For every ton that they collect they will receive funds to go towards school programs or new sports uniforms or whatever they need,” said Damiani. “It is so simple and some schools have raised a lot of money already. It also allows the school to become a bigger part of the recycling community.” The program is appealing to the students and teachers in terms of fundraising possibilities, but also because the program helps their Eco Teams and may help them achieve a new Eco standing Presenters emphasized recycling facts with visual aids and audience participation during the Recycle Your Electronics presentation on May 26.

An alluring landscape can make a home that much more enjoyable. Many homeowners devote considerable time to their lawns and gardens, and that devotion can pay both instant and long-term dividends. A well-groomed landscape can make it more enjoyable to relax in the yard, and such a property will be more attractive to prospective buyers when homeowners want to sell their homes. But even the most well-designed landscapes sometimes need some rearranging, and those changes may involve transplanting trees. Homeowners may transplant trees for various reasons. Some homeowners might be moving to a new home and want to take a favorite tree along with them, while some trees simply outgrow their existing space and need to be moved elsewhere on the property. Regardless of why trees need to be transplanted, homeowners can take several steps to ensure the process goes as smoothly as possible. · Determine why the tree needs to be moved. Some trees that are not thriving in their existing location may not benefit from a transplant. For example, a tree with a pest infestation might need to be replaced rather than transplanted. Determining the reason behind a transplant can save you the trouble of transplanting that won’t benefit from the move. If a tree is not getting adequate sunlight in its present location, then transplanting it to a different location on your property with more exposure to sunlight might reinvigorate the tree. If soil is the problem, than transplanting the tree might prove ineffective unless you also test the soil where you plan to move the tree and adjust it so the tree can thrive. · Prune the tree roots. Tiny roots that extend beyond the tree absorb water and nutrients, and such roots need to be pruned before transplanting a tree.
Landscaping professionals note that root pruning stimulates the growth of new small roots nearer to the tree’s trunk, and these newer roots will be dug up when the time comes to transplant the tree. Root pruning must be done well in advance of transplanting the tree. For example, if you hope to transplant the tree in the fall, then do your root pruning in the spring before new buds appear on the tree. Speak with your landscaper or a nearby garden center to determine the best way to prune your tree’s roots. · Time your transplant correctly. Avoid transplanting trees when temperatures are colder and the ground is frozen. Transplanting before or after a thaw allows the transplanted roots time to develop. In addition, transplanting the day after you have watered the soil around the tree reduces the stress on the tree’s roots, making it easier to keep the root ball intact. · Protect the root ball. When transplanting a tree, make sure the root ball does not dry out. If it does, the tree likely won’t thrive in its new location and all your hard work will have been for naught. Cover the root ball with damp burlap or canvas so it can retain more of the moisture it will need to adapt to its new location. · Plant the tree sooner rather than later. While you can store a transplanted tree before you plant it elsewhere on your property, storing it for a long period of time increases the chances that the transplant will be unsuccessful. Ideally, you want to plant the tree in its new location as soon as possible. If you must store it, make sure you don’t suffocate the root ball, as roots must be kept damp or they will die and potentially cost you the tree. Transplanting a tree can add appeal to a property and help reinvigorate an unhealthy tree.

Dream becomes a reality at Wolfe Island Medical Clinic AGM News:- A contract for services with Bonnie Sparrow NP (Nurse Practitioner) was announced by president Liz Crothers at the WI Community Medical Clinic AGM. The contract for two, half -day clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s per week (Tues. PM-Thurs. AM) with NP Sparrow will cover the 10 week summer period, (during Dr. Russellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personal leave from late June to Labour Day) Ms Sparrow is not replacing Dr. Russell. The Clinic will pay for her services. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In my practice in Sydenham I did everything,â&#x20AC;? Sparrow said. (Diagnose, prescribe, refer, dispense etc.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I do not have access to Dr. Russellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patients , so what we will have is a drop-in clinic on Tuesdays as usual, and a different kind of clinic on Thursdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s .â&#x20AC;? It was noted that there is no rostering, no cost for islanders and U.S. A. guests who use the service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This our opportunity to demonstrate the need for a Nurse Practitioner permanently on the island. If we can, perhaps the Medical Clinic can get funding to hire a NP full time. We have to,â&#x20AC;? Liz said.
She outlined the programs that the clinic presently provides. and thanked the many volunteers, nurses, Mae, receptionists, blood transporters. and so many others who step forward with donations, or to help in some way. Services include: flu shot clinic, specimen collection service monthly 1st & 3rd Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, Dr. Russellâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s walk-in clinic, the paramedicine clinic, & a athletic therapist weekly at a cost. It should be noted that the WI Classic 5-10 k is the Clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main fund raiser . â&#x20AC;&#x153; Support the Clinic., enter and walk if you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t run,â&#x20AC;? Liz suggested. Donations, bottle refund and support from the township provided other income. Treasurer Wilma Sjonger said in her report. We are doing well. Changes to the board: Liz has completed her term as president. Leaving the board are Sue Bowers & Linda Van Hal. Remaining members include Hugh Cowan, Wayne Grant, Sally Kane, Wilma Sjonger, & Suzanne Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Reilly. New members elected: Linda Thomas, Jackie Bird, Jane Woodman, and Paul Taenzer reelected.

.Health care has always been a concern on Wolfe Island, as an isolated rural community dependant on a ferry for hospital and physician care. Before regular ferry transport island history tells us that in the early days, before regular ferry transport midwives tended to births and when the islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s population was at its highest in the mid 1800â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, a number of physicians lived and practiced on the island. Perhaps all islanders are aware of the name of Dr. Wm. Spankie who maintained a practice from 1885-1930. and those of nurses, Carmel Cosgrove, Louise Flynn, and many others who over the years were called upon to tend to the needs of ill or maimed islanders separated from hospital and emergency health care, for all of those recorded early years, which improved only as the ferry service improved. The first Wolfe Island Health Clinic, a 12â&#x20AC;&#x2122; x 52â&#x20AC;&#x2122; mobile home opened in 1972. It was located on the property of clinic founder, Dr. George Mary, and his wife Catherine, an RN. It was bought and paid for through fund raising, and donations from Garden, Simcoe, and Wolfe Island residents, and cottagers. Also from Kingston businesses , all enthusiastic about the project and encouraged to do so by the Clinic Committee. Dr. Merryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vision was that the clinic would eventually be staffed by a Nurse Practitioner and /or a doctor full time and provide a variety of services.( FYI Dr. Merry also initiated the Islandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first Volunteer Ambulance Service again through donations, & fund raising.) Since then much has occurred. The Clinic was moved (1981?) to property beside the Ambulance / Fire Services Building, donated by Mildred HawkinsWalton, a driving force in the clinicâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s viability. City Doctors serviced the island over the years, notably Dr. Hugh McBride in the 80â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, followed by the arrival of the Victorian Order of Nurses. The township hoped an isolated community designation might lead to hir-
ing a Nurse Practitioner. Instead the Clinic closed for a time until Kingstonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dr. Hans Westenberg began holding a weekly half day clinic beginning in 2003, until the WI Clinic fire in May of 2008. Under the leadership of Mildred Walton and a strong board of directors the replacement of the WI Community Medical Clinic began on the same site and with the same enthusiasm from the community. There were donations of time resources, and money which the clinic, not a provincially funded facility, continues to rely on to operate. The new building is paid forâ&#x20AC;Ś. The dreams of what it could become, remain. And todays clinic board of directors continues to search out ways of providing services locally so residents , those not requiring an ambulance, need not take the ferry to Kingston to receive care, perhaps a prescription, whose issues could be dealt with in a staffed clinic by a health care professional. Maybe this time with Nurse Practitioner Sparrow to help, the WI Community Clinic Board will finally be able to prove the value of providing medical care locally, as much possible .

Aunt Lizzie keeps thrilling Mother with special gifts to Mary Mother never got over Aunt Lizzie taking it upon herself to have my long red ringlets cut off on one of her yearly visits out to our farm in Northcote. She had taken me into Renfrew, which in itself wasn’t that unusual. She often hitched up Queenie to the buggy and headed into town, as she said, ‘to break the monotony’ of her week visiting her homestead, and I was usually invited to go with her. But that trip confirmed in Mother’s view, that Aunt Lizzie couldn’t be trusted to take me off the farm without a fair warning that under no condition was she to take me to a beauty shop and have my hair trimmed, as Aunt Lizzie called it. It certainly wasn’t trimmed... it was bobbed, and even though I was thrilled to be rid of the ringlets, Mother was as upset as she would be had I lost an arm or a leg! And so the next summer when Aunt Lizzie had again arrived from Regina, after about three days, she was starting to get the fidgets. I knew she was ready for a trip into
Renfrew. Ordering everyone within earshot, she sent me upstairs to change my clothes, sent Everett to the barn to bring out Queenie, and told Emerson to get the buggy out of the drive shed. Mother shot her a glance that was a warning in itself: “stay away from the beauty parlour with Mary”. A whole year had passed, and my ringlets were a long way from being back to the length they were before what Mother called “Aunt Lizzie’s sticking her nose in where it didn’t belong.” It was a warm sunny day when we headed into Renfrew, and I was beside myself with anticipation because Aunt Lizzie, I knew, would be buying me a treat. It could be anything from store-bought underwear, to new hair ribbons. Of course we would have to stop at Ritza’s Drug Store first, so that Aunt Lizzie could visit with one of the clerks who had gone to school with her. The only thing I would like to have had was a bottle of Lilly of the Valley Perfume, but I wouldn’t dare be so bold as to ask for it. And then we headed up Raglan Street and into Walker’s Store, the biggest store in Renfrew. Aunt Lizzie went in like she owned the place, and the clerks knew they could count on a good sale, and they swarmed over us like bees looking
for blossoms. We headed right for the silk stocking counter. The one with the long glass leg upside down, where the stockings were checked when sold to make sure there were no snags or flaws. Well! Was I in for a surprise! She ordered the clerk to pick out a pair of her shortest silk stockings, and without asking the price or anything, handed me the little brown paper bag. “Now you have your very own silk stockings,” she cooed. I was thunderstruck! I would have settled for a little pair of ankle socks with lace around the cuffs like bad Marguerite wore to the Northcote School. But silk stockings? Never in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine owning silk stockings at six years of age. Sure, my sister Audrey who was much older than I was just got her first silk stockings for her 16th birthday! When we got back to the farm, and Mother saw what Aunt Lizzie had bought me, she was only slightly less pleased than when I had my ringlets cut off. She told me to put them right upstairs in my washstand drawer for safekeeping. But I begged her to let me keep them
with me until after supper. I sat through the entire meal with the little brown bag in front of my plate, and endured sneers from my brother Emerson who said when I wore them; they would probably come up to my armpits. He was right, of course. They were ladies stockings, but just owning a pair of silk stockings was enough for me. “She’ll grow into them,” Aunt Lizzie said. “Ya, when she’s ready to get married...if anyone will have her,” I heard Emerson say under his breath. Well, eventually it was time for Aunt Lizzie to board the CPR train in Renfrew and head back out to Regina. I even took the little brown bag with the silk stockings to the train just to show Aunt Lizzie how thrilled I was. Back on the farm, and days later, the joy of owning something I couldn’t wear started to fester. I knew the stockings would fit Audrey, but I wasn’t generous enough to just hand them over to her. I asked her if she would like to buy them, and she could have them
cheap! She tore upstairs to her drawer and brought down her hankie where she had tied in the corner all the money she owned. She counted out 12 cents. And then I remembered all the times Audrey helped with my homework, sang to me at night in bed, protected me in the dark, and walked out to the outhouse with me when I was frightened. I picked up a big round brown penny and handed her the paper bag with the silk stockings in it. I figured it was a good trade. Interested in an electronic version of Mary’s books?

How safe is our food? Typically we believe the food we eat is safe. But, how safe is it? I attended one of the Ontario Public Health Food Safety Certification workshops to better understand what it all means. After one workshop I was rethinking the food buffet line. When something you eat or drink makes you sick, it’s called a ‘food-borne’ illness. Whether it comes from a sneeze or a chef or the server not washing their hands properly—food contamination is everywhere. The Food Safety: A Guide for Ontario’s Foodhandler’s states that for each reported case of food-borne illness, it’s estimated that hundreds of additional cases occur in the community that go unreported. When people say they have a ‘24-hour flu’ it’s often a case of food-borne illness. Symptoms include some or all of the following: stomach cramps, diarrhea, vomiting, nausea and fever. The incubation period can start as soon as 20 minutes after eating contaminated food, or can occur up to a month or more later. This incubation period varies depending on the type of food-borne illness, how healthy the person was before the illness and the amount of contaminant the person consumed. Eating out is sometimes the culprit; at home safe food handling, temperature control, proper storage,
defrosting, cooling and reheating hazards exist too. Here are a few easy steps to prevent cross-contamination: • Store raw foods such as meat, fish and poultry separate from and below cooked or ready to eat foods in the fridge • Use clean utensils to handle food • Wash hands frequently • Clean and sanitize utensils and equipment between uses • Label all chemicals and store them in an area separate from food • Use sneeze guards or covers • Tie your hair back; keep your aprons clean, dishcloths in sanitizing solution, etc. Temperature control is the most effective way to slow the growth of bacteria in food. Avoid the danger zone. Keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold. Bacteria grow best between 4 ° C(40 °F) and 60 °C (140 °F). Use a probe thermometer to check that things have been cooked thoroughly and fridge thermometers to be sure the temperature is right. You should always probe the thickest part of the meat and hold for a minimum of 15 seconds to determine if it’s ready to eat. Our busy lives mean we often resort quickest preparation methods possible. My worst habit is pulling something out of the refrigerator and leaving it to thaw on the kitchen countertop—a huge hazard.
To safely defrost food place in the refrigerator or under cold running water in the sink. Cook your foods to the right temperature and cool them quickly in the fridge or a tray of ice. I had an incident when I was in my 20s, where I had painstakingly prepared a pot of chili to take away with friends to the cottage. I placed in on the counter top to cool down before putting it in the refrigerator. It got left out more than four hours. The next day it was taken out, packed on ice and transported to the cottage. Sadly, we couldn’t eat the beautiful chili. Leaving it out in danger zone temperatures was reason enough, but then we traveled with it not reheating it to the original cooking temperature within the two-hour window permitted. Chili should be cooked to 74 ° C and held at 60 ° C, then stored at a temperature of 4 °C. To cool properly, separate into shallow pans with a two-inch depth, frequently stir until it reaches 60 ° C then store at -4 °C. Cover, label, and date. Reheat it to 74 ° C one time only
within two hours. It was a hard lesson when I had to buy pizza for a house full of guests! BBQ season is upon us. Homemade sauces, meat, chicken and fish will be served up on your grill. The temperature of BBQs mean that cross contamination is very unlikely from the grill. To cook —scrub, and brush off food from previous meals. Always bring fresh tongs and platters to transfer cooked meat to the table. Never place meat and vegetables back on the plate used to transport raw foods to the BBQ. When preparing foods in advance of a gathering such as salads, vegetables and meat, be sure to cover and store properly in the refrigerator not more than two to four hours before an event. These simple steps will help you enjoy a food safe summer!

The sounds of healing Throughout the spring and summer, Janati Yoga School is hosting a meditative experience known as Sound Journey. The workshop leader, Yessica Rivera Belsham, will guide participants through a relaxing evening using the sounds of sacred voice, quartz singing bowls, gongs, drums, spirit chimes and flutes. “It’s not about expectations,” said Rivera Belsham. “It’s definitely about feeling relaxed. Everything on Earth is about vibration, whether it’s the crystal bowl sounds or the drums.” The Sacred Funk yoga site notes that the ancient yogis knew what scientists today are telling us, that the entire universe is moving. “Everything that exists pulsates, creating a rhythmic vibration that the ancient yogis acknowledged with the sound of Aum (OM),” reports Sacred Funk. “We may not al-
ways be aware of this sound in our daily lives, but we can hear it in the rustling of the autumn leaves, the waves on the shore, the inside of a seashell.” Exposing ourselves to different sounds can directly alter our moods and feelings. Try maintaining a positive attitude if there’s a domestic squabble going on in the apartment next to yours, or the neighbor’s dog has been barking non-stop for the past three hours. Conversely, watch how your body reacts to the sounds of gentle waves on a lake or seashore. Likewise, see how you feel when listening to Mussorgsky’s Night on Bald Mountain versus Brahms’ Lullaby. Whether it’s massage, breathing exercises, meditation, reading, or listening to music, there are many ways to relax. Unfortunately, we don’t use the methods often enough. There are hundreds, and probably thousands, of studies that examine the negative effects of stress on the body and mind. Similarly, numerous studies have explored the positive effects of relaxation training. Rivera Belsham, who is an art-
ist, drum maker, personal support worker (PSW) and third year nursing student, has studied the effects of different relaxation methods. She likes to incorporate singing and music wherever it is practical and the client is interested. Singing is important in Rivera Belsham’s life. “It’s always been part of me,” she said. “It’s a release. I’ve never felt good with words, but I love expression, and I love visual arts and drumming. I remember the first time I sang in public, it was with the Samba Band, in one of Brazil’s indigenous languages.” Rivera Belsham has worked in palliative and hospice care. When she completes her training, she hopes to practise nursing in these kinds of settings. “I’ve sung with clients in palliative care. It’s something I do if they want. I have learned how much peace it can bring to people.” As we chatted during her interview, we talked about life, death, and what each means. “A lot of people who learn that I work in palliative care think it’s sad. But it can be a beautiful thing to spend time with someone at the end. It’s an intimate, raw moment with the
Buddhist writings, often associated with meditation, but she says a person can choose their own sound, or simply remain quiet. “Chanting Aum allows us to recognize our experience as a reflection of how the whole universe moves—the setting sun, the rising moon, the ebb and flow of the tides, the beating of our hearts. As we chant Aum, it takes us for a ride on this universal movement, through our breath, our awareness, and our physical energy, and we begin to sense a bigger connection that is both uplifting and soothing.” (from Sacred Funk website). “Om is a powerful sound,” she said Rivera Belsham. “But a person can make any sound. They can quack like a duck if they want. It’s an individual matter.” The word meditation is related to the word medha from Sanskrit. Medha refers to wisdom. Meditation is about discovering the wisdom within. The crystal bowls are each created in a way that allows each one to emit a specific musical note. In many Eastern philosophies and beliefs, the chakras of the body are thought to be energy points and
family. It strips away a lot of the things that don’t matter. You are just caring and bring present.” She explained that in Sound Journey and in her work with the crystal bowls, she has the same attitude as she uses in her approach to healing. She said the healing comes from within each person. It is the professional’s job to optimize the setting for the person. “It’s about being present,” she said. “In Sound Journey it can be interactive or someone can just sit at the side or lie down and listen. I make sure everyone is comfortable. I explain what will happen. I tell them it is going to be like a guided meditation. I will creative sounds by playing different bowl as we go through the guided meditation.” When she talks about “playing the bowls” she’s referring to making musical sounds using the crystal bowls. There are several of them, each carved from quartz crystal. Depending on the width and depth of the bowl, each creates its own tone. “It is a lingering, soothing experience,” said Rivera Belsham. “Part of it will involve chanting. If someone wants to join in, they can make whatever sound then want.” Rivera Belsham uses the “OM” (Aum) sound, from Hindu and

The sounds of healing Continued from page 28
Yessica Rivera Belsham with some of the crystal bowls she will be using in her Sound Journey workshops hosted by Janati Yoga School
sounds of the crystal bowls are connected to the chakra system. Chakra, like Medha, is a Sanskrit word. It means wheel or vortex. Like such healing touch systems as Japanese shiatsu or Chinese Tui Na, energy is believed to flow through the body. When that energy becomes blocked or out of balance, we become ill. However one describes it, we know from consistent scientific studies that stress causes physical problems and illnesses. Over time, we become fatigued and ill when under too much stress. Yessica Rivera Belsham works to counter that stress. “We’re not trying to do or force anything. Some people can feel intimidated, but it’s important that they know that they are not expected to do anything in the workshop. Just let go.” But, cautions Rivera Belsham, the sounds in the workshop, especially the sounds of the crystal bowls, are not for everyone. “I wouldn’t recommend it for people with hearing aids or someone who experiences vertigo.” Sound Journey workshops are being held at Janati Yoga School at 16 Bath Road in Kingston, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. on May 29, June 5, 19, 26, July 10 and 17. Rivera Belsham hopes to run ongoing workshops in the future. “I want this to be a stable thing that’s offered in Kingston,” she said. A portion of the proceeds from the Sound Journey workshops will help sustain the Kingston Drum Circle and Aztec drumming workshops. If you would like to find out about other workshops that Yessica Rivera Belsham runs, make sure to sign up for the newsletter at the circle of wellness website.

When radio broadcaster Tony Orr was a teen those around him suggested he should be going to radio school. One problem: there were no radio programs in college or university. “I loved radio so much,” he said. “Even as a kid growing up in Toronto, radio was a magical thing.” In his bedroom, Tony had a crystal radio in the shape of a rocket. As he lifted the nose cone, the channel would change. It needed an aerial to function, so Tony hooked up a wire to the bottom of the mattress in the bunk bed above. He’d listen to music during the day and at night, talk shows. He spent three of his high school years at school near Philadelphia, at the same time as underground radio was taking off in the US. “They introduced you to emerging music,” he said. “I heard Canned Heat play Fried Hockey Boogie. We had never heard this kind of thing on radio.” Back in Canada after high school,
he learned about a new program at Humber College in Toronto. “It involved a mélange of media stuff,” said Orr. “It was one of the greatest places ever. I loved the guy that taught the theatre arts portion. He ran a theatre in downtown Toronto.” Tony Orr interned in everything involved in theatre. “The guy who did the lights also worked at Theatre Passe Muraille. He told me no one would teach me. It’s a closed business. You’ll find this in life in general. People won’t teach you the easy way of doing things. They’ll make it complicated when it doesn’t have to be.” After his first semester at Humber, Tony was introduced to radio broadcasting. He was already hosting a classical show at the campus radio station. “Classical was music I’d grown up with,” said Orr. “I asked Granny what to do. She told me to do my research and not to talk about the orchestra and how the guy plays the oboe. Talk about what you think about when you hear the music. Find out about the composers and who they were.” He also loved Motown and top 40 radio. “During the early days of radio, rock was considered anything from

would be his storytelling and people skills. Tony has broadcast live from the bridge of a British warship. He’s been diving in a submarine. And one of his greatest thrills has been within the radio station itself, building a newsroom from scratch in the electronic media era. “I had a vision of the bridge of Starship Enterprise, where you could do everything from your chair. It’s all computerized, digital everything.” He’s also become well known for his on-air rants, known as Outraged. “It’s an opportunity to bring a commentary to things,” he said. “These issues burn in the back of
my mind.” He used the example of the city’s amalgamation process as the source of a peeve. Amalgamating townships and city was supposed to cut staff and save money. Orr points out that the staffing and budget of the amalgamated City of Kingston is far higher than that of the combined former city and townships. That, to Orr (and most others) is an outrage. Times have changed since the days of magnetic tape recorders and vinyl record albums. What does Tony recommend for someone entering a career in broadcast media? “Find the best place to go to school,” he said. “Start your own podcast and go wild. Record evR0013306919_0604
thought he’d never get another chance to work in radio. But nine months later, he ended up on the new K-Rock station. He’s been there now since it started 14 years ago. He began as a consultant, setting up the news department. He also started working at Loyalist College, teaching
a course in feature production and supervising the news room. K-Rock offered a permanent job at a salary he liked working four of five hours a day in the news room. He’s worked in that arrangement ever since. He gets to work at K-Rock for 4 a.m., works until 9, and then heads to Belleville for his professor duties with Loyalist College. What’s Tony’s secret of success? That

Inexpensive ways to boost a home’s curb appeal
• Put your green thumb to use. A well-maintained landscape can dramatically improve a home’s curb appeal. Pay attention to the plants, shrubs and trees throughout your property, watering them during periods of little rainfall and trimming them when necessary so your lawn does not look like an overgrown, neglected suburban jungle. Professional landscaping services can help you maintain your property, but even if your budget does not allow for such an expense, you can still make sure your landscape adds to your home’s appeal by keeping a watchful eye on the property and addressing any issues that arise. Maintain your lawn through the colder months of the year as well, making sure no one walks on the grass when frost has settled, as doing so can produce dead spots throughout the lawn. • Redo your front door. While their eyes may initially be drawn to a well-manicured lawn, prospective buyers will eventually find their way to the front door. If your door is especially old, consider replac-
ing it. If your budget does not allow for such an expense, you can still give your home’s front entrance an entirely new look by installing some inexpensive molding around the door before giving the door a fresh coat of paint. Molding around the front door can make an entrance more impressive, while a new coat of paint can make a home feel warmer and more vibrant. • Plant flowers. Another inexpensive way to make a home more appealing is to plant some colorful flowers around the property. Line walkways with flowers native to your region, as such plants will last longer than exotic alternatives that may not be capable of adapting to the local climate. In addition to lining walkways, hang window boxes filled with colorful flowers or plants outside naked windows. Doing so can make windows seem larger and add some color to your home’s exterior. Another creative way to make use of colorful flowers is to place a few planters at the foot of your driveway and painting the numbers of your address on the planters. This can be both effortless and inexpensive, but it can instantly make a home more inviting to prospective buyers. • Spotlight certain parts of your property. Many homeowners focus on improving the curb appeal of their property during the daytime hours, but you can take steps to make a home more appealing at night as well. Solar spotlights placed around trees and other at-

Smarter. Bolder. Faster.
tractive features in your yard can shed light on those areas of your property you’re most proud of, even after the sun has gone down. Solar spotlights won’t add to your
energy bill, as they are powered by the sun, and they can make certain accents on your property stand out at night. Improving curb appeal may sound
like a significant undertaking, but there are many ways budget-conscious homeowners can make their home’s exterior more appealing without going broke.
Maintaining plant life on a property won’t cost homeowners a lot of money, but such an effort can add substantial curb appeal to a home.

Curb appeal can go a long way toward making a home more attractive to its inhabitants as well as prospective buyers once the house is put on the market. Improving curb appeal is a goal for many homeowners, and while many projects aimed at making homes more aesthetically appealing can be costly, there are ways for costconscious homeowners to improve their properties without breaking the bank.

5 signs your home insulation is not working (MS) - Some insulations can lose performance over time, sustain damage or simply no longer meet updated building codes. It’s an issue that can be costly, because if your home’s insulation isn’t doing its job, you could be wasting money and resources. You don’t have to be a trained professional to know you have a problem. Here are several signs that your insulation is lacking: 1. Energy bills - High energy bills are the biggest red flag, especially relative to the size, age or condition of the home. If you have a run-away energy bill, your insulation may need to be upgraded. This can be the case, even in a newer home. 2. Drafts - Do you need to put on a sweater even with the heat on, or does your air conditioner run incessantly without making enough of a difference? That’s a sign of a deficiency in your building envelope. 3. Inconsistent temperatures - Is it warm in one room, but cold in another? Are your walls or interior closets cold to the touch? It’s possible that while your whole home may not need attention, certain rooms may need to be addressed. 4. Condition of insulating materials - Consider the age of your insulation. Would it stand up to today’s building codes? Is it in good shape or is
it crumbly? If your insulation has degraded or isn’t performing, it’s time for an upgrade. But be careful, as certain types of older insulation, such as Vermiculite insulation, may contain asbestos. If you’re unsure, do not disturb it and hire a professional to conduct testing and/or removal. This should not be a do-it-yourself job. 5. You detect pests and/or moisture - Insulation and your building envelope - can be compromised by the presence of pests. Moisture is an even bigger obstacle to optimal thermal performance, as some types of insulation can sag or collapse when damp, leaving voids and causing air to flow in and out of the building envelope. While some solutions may be more complicated, requiring the opening of the existing wall cavities, others can be addressed more easily. The best way to improve thermal performance and increase energy efficiency is to upgrade attic insulation. Laying Comfortbatt insulation over existing material to achieve a minimum depth of 16 inches, or an R-value of R50, is a simple DIY project that can generate immediate results. To fully assess your home and explore remediation solutions, consider hiring a professional home energy auditor to evaluate your home’s energy performance. Even in a new home, the results may be surprising.
