Making dreams come true one dress at a time mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
News – For many high school seniors prom is the highlight of the year; it is a chance to dress up, dance the night away and celebrate the end of high school with friends and peers. Prom is also very expensive, especially when it comes to attire, but luckily a local teenager turned fairy godmother is here to help. “I attended my prom last year and I personally knew girls that weren’t able to go to prom because they weren’t able to take on the extra costs associated with it, especially in terms of a dress,” explained Daniela Cino, 18, a first year science student at Queen’s. The average Canadian family spends about $800 on prom per child, a cost that can seem astronomical to some. Taking the
dress out of that cost equation can help quite a bit and that was what Cino set out to do. “I thought that if I could start up an organization and alleviate some of those costs by collecting gently used dresses then the rest might be easier.” Cino started ‘Dresses 4 Prom’ to help and began collecting dresses this past January by asking people to drop them off at Queen’s University, James Brett Coiffure, CORUS Entertainment and Cataraqui Town Centre. Her goal was to collect 50 dresses by March 31, but she may have underestimated the generosity of Kingstonians. “At last count we had 65 with more to pick up,” she said. “Now I am hoping that we end up with 70-80 dresses. That would be so great.” Cino has received dresses in multiple sizes, colours and styles and while most of them have been only lightly used, many still need to be cleaned before they are ready for new owners. “We’ve been lucky and some dry cleaning companies in Kingston have donated those services to us, but with extra dresses coming in we need more help so we are asking for monetary donations to clean the rest,” said Cino. “We are also looking for volunteers to help distribute the dresses.” Dresses will be available at a pop-up
boutique at the Delta Waterfront in Kingston on April 26 from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Girls who are interested in obtaining a dress can simply come to the event and show their Grade 12 student ID. They are also invited to bring some friends to help them choose. “It will be a really fun afternoon and I hope we get a good turnout,” said Cino. “We’ll have dress consultants and a great space so it should be good.” Cino donated her own dress to the cause too, and she hopes that another girl enjoys it as much as she did. “The dress was only worn once and like TICO#50007364

many other girls it was in my closet collecting dust. There are a lot of girls out there that could enjoy it and I think donating the dresses helps create a memory for them without the huge burden of cost.” For more information about Dresses 4 Prom or to volunteer your services email dresses4prom@hotmail.com

Post-election report out: Voting process to be improved Continued from page 1
Councillors called for a detailed review of the way the election was carried out following complaints about lengthy wait times to vote, and even longer waits for the election night results. A 40 page post-election report, conducted by the city clerk’s department, makes several recommendations to improve the voting process in time for the next election in 2018. Voter turnout in last fall’s election was about 5,000 higher than in 2010, resulting in an overall turnout of 39.5 percent. A last minute surge
of voters at some of the 25 polling stations caused a backlog in the system. “The main reason for the wait times was a voters list that wasn’t up to date,” explained deputy clerk Kevin Arjoon. On election day there were 3,000 electors added to the voting list with a total of 4,597 revisions made to voter profiles throughout the day. This caused a big backlog at some election stations as deputy returning officers had to manually verify and process the information. Officials say an elector list supplied by the Municipal Property Assessment Corporation (MPAC) wasn’t as up-to-date as it could have

been. It resulted in too many people who didn’t get a voter identification card in the mail and led to a flurry of last minute revisions to the list. The delay in posting election night results was partly based on the decision to drive the ballots back to City Hall to upload the results. City officials decided in advance not to do a remote transfer of the tabulator results based on the cost and resources to acquire the technology. “The cost of $33,000 for transmitting from 25 voting locations on voting day was deemed not a good use of project funds,” said the clerk’s report. The tabulators containing the memory cards were slow to arrive due to incomplete paperwork from site supervisors and delays in closing out some of the polling stations. It wasn’t until 9:16 pm that results of the advance ballots were first displayed, and 11:44 pm before the unofficial election results were posted. Problems were also observed with the vendor who was contracted by the city to work the electronic equipment and process memory cards containing the votes. “He did not seem to be adequately trained to cope with unexpected situations or to resolve the unexpected situation locally,” the report further noted. The clerk made several recommendations to improve the voting process in 2018, including more advance work with MPAC to update the voter list prior to election day, more training for staff at polling stations, review staffing at polling stations to ensure any last minute turnout of voters can be processed quickly with auxiliary
staff available to handle the evening rush, find more convenient voting locations, use social media to inform the public about wait times at polling stations, streamline the closure of polling stations to ensure voting results get posted sooner with the possible use of electronic transfers, and improve the city’s website to handle more internet traffic on election night. A post-election public survey also revealed some interesting results from the 2014 election experience. Of about 350 people who responded to a questionnaire, 46.1 per cent say they took advantage of Kingston’s first opportunity to vote online with a computer, while an equal number of 46.1 per cent voted through the traditional method at the polling stations. About 85 per cent either strongly or somewhat agreed that the online voting registration process was easy, and over 90 per cent said voting online was easy. A similar number said they would use this method of voting in the future. Responses to in-person voting were less enthusiastic. Only about one-third of respondents, or 37 per cent, strongly agreed or somewhat agreed to experiencing a “reasonable” wait time at the polling locations, while 53 per cent found the wait times too long. On the question of ‘How would you rate your overall voting experience?’ the survey found 38 per cent said it was excellent, 26 per cent said it was good, 16 per cent rated it as fair, and 20 per cent called it poor. This question was answered by 338 respondents.

Kingston’s mayor speaks about his first 100 days in office By Bill Hutchins
News – Kingston mayor Bryan Paterson says his first 100 days in office were probably the busiest of his political life. “Busy, yes, but also the most interesting.” Paterson has just issued a summary of what he’s done since becoming the city’s 96th mayor, and some of the big ticket projects that he wants to put on the political front-burner. Among the projects he’s pushing council to adopt is to make the third bridge crossing ready for construction during this council term. It will involve spending millions of dollars to complete the land acquisition and bridge design work. “I am encouraging my fellow councillors to commit to getting the Third Crossing shovel ready as one of our goals for the 2014-2018 strategic plan,” Paterson said. He believes a two-lane bridge over the Cataraqui River – linking John Counter Blvd. and Gore Road – will cost about $140 million. But if senior governments each contribute one-third towards the bridge, plus the city relies on funding from development charges, then the actual cost to Kingston taxpayers is about $34 million. “Now don’t get me wrong, $34
million is a lot of money. But, to KEDCO’s new four-year strategic put this into perspective, in the plan with benchmarks and target 2015 budget just passed by council, sectors, holding a local economic we approved spending $63 million summit to foster innovation and for phase 3 of the John Counter Blvd. widening while keeping our tax rate in line with inflation.” Paterson says he will also champion the expansion of Norman Rogers Airport at council’s upcoming priority talks in late March. Some of his views are reflected on his new website (mayorpaterson.com) which was launched to coincide with the symbolic milestone of his 100th day in office on March 12. Following his inauguration speech in early December, Paterson released a specific action plan to accomplish during the first 100 days. The mayor’s ambitious agenda included working with city staff to minimize the 2015 property tax increase without compromising front-line services, supporting the launch of Kingston Mayor Bryan Patterson
entrepreneurship, meeting with 100 community groups in 100 days to explore partnerships, working on youth employment and waterfront investment strategies and exploring funding opportunities from senior governments. The mayor released a checklist trumpeting his early accomplishments; -he’s met with 125 community groups to get feedback on the city’s direction, -council brought in a 2015 budget with a 2.5 per cent tax increase that doesn’t compromise front-line services, -met with federal and provincial members to discuss local priorities, -met with individual business leaders to discuss strategies to foster more innovation and entrepreneurship, -held two focus groups with the United Way and local youth for their opinions on barriers to em-
ployment. When it comes to council behaviour, Paterson says a more civil tone has dominated the meetings that he’s chaired. He credits the mix of rookies and veterans for embracing an attitude of compromise instead of confrontation. “I think we are working well together. We are listening to each other and I think that’s what the community is looking for.”

Editorial
Seven things I’ve learned in three years of motherhood
It’s hard to believe that in just a few short weeks my baby girl will be three years old. She’s a curious toddler, full of questions about the world around her, constantly absorbing everything we say. But she’s teaching me, too, in her own little way. Here are seven things I’ve learned in the first three years of motherhood: 1) Live in the moment– I still consider myself to be a work in progress in this department, but I’m getting there. How is Summer helping? Well, one day we were having a dance party and my phone buzzed, so I stopped dancing and picked it up. I was so absorbed in responding to some tweet or other that I didn’t notice Summer had stopped dancing as well. “Put your phone down, mommy”, said a small voice behind me. “Come play with me.” My heart broke. From that day forth, I’ve never let my phone get in the way of a good dance party. 2) Toddlers are hilarious – For example, Summer is under the impression that I’m constantly in need of tampons. Lately, she’s been going up to the bathroom and bringing me a tampon no matter where I am in the house or what I’m doing. “Here
you go mommy,” she’ll say, handing me a super-absorbency Tampax as I unload the dishwasher. Of course, I always make a big deal out of her generosity and thank her for her “gift”. 3) Even toddler tantrums are kind of hilarious – Recently, Summer threw an allout tantrum because I used safety pins to raise the hem on one of her too-long princess dresses to prevent her from tripping. “Noooooooo! There’s something wrong with it,” she sobbed when she noticed the adjusted length. I explained to her what I had done and why. “Noooooo, take them OFF, take them OFF,” she screamed, pulling at the pins. I told her I wouldn’t, and she got down on the floor of her bedroom and started kicking and screaming. I left the room for two reasons: to send a message that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated, and so she wouldn’t see me laughing. Honestly, what else can you do? 4) I need to work on becoming a better person…or at least pretending to be a better person in front of Summer – There’s nothing like your two-and-a-half year old randomly announcing that “[so-and-so] is a douchebag” at the dinner table to make you realize how ugly unfair criticism is. My grandfather never said a bad word about anybody and always gave people the benefit of the doubt. My whole life I’ve strived to emulate him, though often I fall short. Summer acquiring speech may finally be the motivation I need. I want her to grow
Kanata Kourier-Standard
Kanata Kourier-Standard Letter to the editor Arnprior Chronicle-Guide
up in a house where love, kindness and forgiveness outweigh jealousy and catty behaviour. 5) Sleep is the most beautiful, amazing thing in the world – Summer has never been a good sleeper. She gets this from me, so I can’t be too annoyed with her for it. These days when she wakes during the night, it’s usually because she’s partially fallen out of bed or needs her blankets fixed and she almost always goes right back to sleep after these things have been taken care of. Still, if she (and I) both sleep for a full eight hours straight I always feel like throwing a party to celebrate. Functioning on full brain power is a wonderful thing! (N.B. - So is coffee.) 6) The days are long, but the weeks (and months) are short – I found this to be particularly true during the first months of Summer’s life, when there was really nothing to do but hold her, change her diaper and walk around the neighbourhood with the stroller, but it’s still the case today - especially on weekends or when I take time off to spend with her at home. To be brutally honest, entertaining a young child can be boring and the hours tend to drag. But, I always look back on these days with fondness and nostalgia after putting her to bed in the evening. I know that the next day she’ll be a little older, a little wiser, a little less dependent on me. Taken collectively, these moments/ days/weeks really are so fleeting. 7) …And the years are even shorter – I have a three year old. Case in point.
In Our Opinion
The fight for pay equality continues
Editorial – On March 2, nearly 30 percent of the teaching staff at one of Canada’s largest universities, the University of Toronto, went on strike. The strike occurred after nearly 1,000 members of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) 3902 attended a Friday afternoon meeting to decide whether or not the purposed tentative pay deal that the university offered would be sent to a unit-wide ratification vote, and 90 per cent of attendees voted against it. The reality is that TAs and contract faculty do 60 per cent of the teaching at the university while being paid wages that are below what Statistics Canada sets as a living wage for single workers in big cities; the university pays most graduate students $15, 000 a year while the poverty line for a single adult in Toronto was $19,307 in 2011. While the media and even undergraduate students at U of T have been talking about TAs $42.05 hourly rate, they do not add that the university caps TAs’ hours at 205 per year and most go well beyond that cap without extra pay. This isn’t the first time that teaching assistants and contract faculty have gone on strike in Canada and it certainly won’t be the last time either, especially when you consider that the University of Toronto actually pays their TAs and contract faculty more than some other Canadian universities. So why aren’t they being properly compensated? Is it a case of the university taking advantage of them and cutting cost corners wherever they can? Or did the university just not adapt to the changing nature of their teaching staff? These are the questions that have led the 6,000 members of CUPE 3902 to strike and continue to strike for nearly three weeks. Even famous alumni like Margaret Atwood and Naomi Klein, as well as professors, have been asking these questions and voicing their support for the strikers whose wages have not been increased since 2008, even as tuition rates continue to rise for students year after year and enrolment increases. At press time, a tentative deal was being discussed and voted on by CUPE 3902 members and hopefully the union is able to get what they want and deserve, but that doesn’t mean the fight is over. Pay equality is an issue that many TAs and contract faculty are facing across the country at different institutions and as more and more contracts expire more and more strikes may be on the horizon. On a broader scale, pay equality isn’t isolated to universities and affects all of us at some point. Perhaps we should look to CUPE 3902 as an example of how to fight back and fight for what we deserve.

Letter to the editor Fitness Craze at Rivier By Thalia Danielson, Hunter Gagnier. Gabrielle Godbille-Cardona and Eric Sturgeon
É.s.c. Marie-Rivier is launching a revolutionary fitness program. A focus on elite athlete conditioning and customized sessions defies the boundaries of high school gym classes. This is PC, offered solely at Rivier. Taught by Émerik Mehes, a certified (CanFit Pro & PCC) training specialist, this program targets the natural movements of the human body, and encourages harmony between the major muscle groups. According to the PCC website, “PC generates massive power, coordination and balance, protects the joints, revolutionizes the physique, builds tendon integrity and blow-torches fat from the body.” Sessions last approximately one hour, commencing with an 8-10 minute warm up, followed by a 40 minute workout and finishing with an 8-10 minute cool down period. Workouts are customized to cater to students’ varying fitness levels. Once a baseline test is administered, long and short term goals are established to meet an athlete’s specific needs. Completion of the PC program grants grade 12 students a full OAC credit. Sessions taken by any other students and personnel, offer a unique workout experience. This program has generated rave reviews from students and teachers alike. Logan Chartrand, a grade 12 student at M-R and a hockey player for the Kingston Canadians Major Midget AA; has this to say about PC:
“I like the fact that each session is different, that I don’t work out by myself and that I don’t waste time doing exercises that won’t help me on the ice.” “The use of kettle bells, the Cross-box and the TRX helps me focus on my upper body strength. The program is like nothing I’ve ever done before,” says grade 12 student, avid runner and figure skater, Natalie-Josée Carson. Marie-Rivier’s principal, Ms. Judith Sincennes, asserted that: “The need for a new sports program was requested from parents and students alike. It was important for us to offer a program both focused on health and well-being, as well as on physical activity and leadership. Many are unaware of the success that Marie-Rivier has had in sports over the years. This only highlights our accomplishments. Most interesting, is that PC caters to students at all levels of sport, responding to their present needs, pushing them to excel, while encouraging a balanced lifestyle. After school sessions are also being offered to personnel. I, for one, can’t wait to set goals for myself and surpass them.’’ Should you want more information on PC or, if you are interested in trying out a session, the facebook link to Mr. Mehes’ business is Leverage Fitness. Better yet, why not drop by É.s.c. Marie-Rivier at 711 Dalton Avenue and witness the fitness craze for yourself? Editor’s Note: This story was contributed by Writer’s Craft students at É.s.c. MarieRivier.

City councillor looks to South Frontenac for garbage reduction scheme By Bill Hutchins
News – As Kingston wrestles with ways to reduce the amount of trash that ends up in the landfill, a city councillor is looking to South Frontenac Township for a possible solution. Coun. Peter Stroud is proposing to adopt a program that’s similar to the township’s garbage bag tag system, but he’s got more convincing to do before other councillors agree to it. South Frontenac currently mails an allotment of 50 garbage tags to homeowners with their interim tax bills in March, which they can use at their own discretion throughout the year.
Once the tags are gone, homeowners have to pay for each tag thereafter. Coun. Stroud introduced a motion at the environment, infrastructure and transportation committee March 10 to recommend bringing a similar ‘tagged’ system to Kingston where homeowners would get 52 tags mailed to them, the equivalent of one tag a week for a year. He says his proposal isn’t meant to eliminate the one ‘untagged’ bag that homeowners can now place on the curb each week, but it would give them more flexibility in how often the tags are used. “That is, in itself, a symbolic motion that you are taking respon-
sibility for your garbage and hopefully you’ll start thinking of the other choices you could make,” said Coun. Stroud. This is not the same as moving to a full user pay system, he added. Under the current rules, city homeowners are allowed to place one ‘untagged’ bag on the curb each week, along with unlimited recycling and green bin disposal. Any additional bag requires a $2 tag attached. Two bag weeks are only allowed following New Year’s Day, Victoria Day and Labour Day. Coun. Stroud’s motion follows a staff report suggesting Kingston is struggling to achieve a 65 per cent

landfill diversion rate. Council recently decided to establish a 60 per cent diversion target for 2018. The city has also launched a public consultation campaign to gather ideas to boost the landfill diversion rate, which currently stands at around 55 per cent. But the committee isn’t ready to investigate Stroud’s proposal just yet, and voted to defer the motion until a detailed waste management survey is completed this spring. Some other options have also been suggested by staff and remain open to political debate, including; eliminating the one ‘untagged’ residential garbage bag per week in favour of a
full user pay system, reducing collection frequencies to once every second week, reducing the maximum size and weight of garbage bags, or using only clear garbage bags that show collectors whether any of the trash is recyclable or not. Staff say almost all of these options are already adopted by other municipalities in one form or another. Coun. Stroud says adopting South Frontenac’s tagging system – mailing a pre-set number of garbage tags to homeowners every year - is a “fairly simply solution” to encourage more recycling and reduce the city’s garbage output.

Green Party candidate looks to “take the pulse of the community” to prepare for upcoming election By Hollie Pratt-Campbell hpratt-campbell@perfprint.ca
For Kingston and the Islands federal Green Party candidate Nathan Townend, his job is first and foremost about listening to constituents and understanding their concerns in order to better represent them in Parliament. “Politics primarily tends to be about the leader these days, and the focus is on Ottawa,” he notes. “My attempt is not to bring Ottawa problems to Kingston, but bring Kingston’s concerns to Ottawa.” That’s why Townend, who was elected candidate in November, has launched a special community engagement tour, during which he will meet with leaders in the private, public and non-profit sectors. “The purpose is basically to take the pulse of the community and see what issues matter to the constituents here in Kingston,” he explains. “What issues going forward here into the election are going to be the most potent, and where do they see their own organizations in relation to the political
context in the next five – 10 years.” Townend says that in doing so he is following the lead of Green Party leader Elizabeth May, who holds regular town halls in her riding of SaanichGulf Islands. “It’s part of why she was voted hardest working MP, and I feel that for my candidacy that’s very important because local democracy is something I think has eroded in recent years.” So far, he has booked meetings with executives at organizations like the United Way, the Chamber of Commerce and the Food Bank. He has also engaged with the community on topics like immigration reform, Bill C-51 and CFRC’s Homeless Marathon, which allowed people to share their stories of poverty, homelessness, mental health, addiction and community services on a special radio program that was broadcast on stations across Canada. “One of the reasons I was really pleased with the homelessness marathon is because the whole principle behind that is to give people who don’t have a voice a voice,” he says, noting he would like to take the same sort of approach to his candidacy in

order to engage as many people as possible and get people from all areas of society out to vote. “It’s not so much simply standing on a soapbox and saying we need to engage all these [demographics that often feel disenfranchised], this is why you should be involved or this is why you should be concerned. It’s actually doing the groundwork.” Why the Green Party? Townend says that he’s always wanted to run for political office, particularly at the federal level, and the Green Party is the party that truly speaks to his beliefs. “One of the common misconceptions about the Green Party is that it’s a single issue party because it’s all about the environment, but that misconception demonstrates what I consider to be part of the political problem. Whatever issue you want to take, whether it’s global poverty, whether it’s health care, whether it’s the economy, it needs to be held within an environmental framework such that we recognize that we’re material beings that depend on a material planet.” He adds that Kingston - a city where he lived off and on growing up in a military family and has since settled in after completing a master’s in religious studies at Queen’s - is a good place to be a political candidate. “There’s so much in this election that matters to Kingstonians, and I think that the introduction of the anti-terrorism bill [Bill C-51] has garnered a lot of attention and has caused people to start realizing that [we’re in an election cam-
H’art Able Artists series presents an afternoon and evening with Elizabeth Morris mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Events – Imagine telling a story with only your facial expressions and body movements no sound, just your body. For many who are deaf or hard of hearing, this is a daily task. Elizabeth Morris is one of these people and through her work as an actress and comedian she works to
show others, both deaf and hearing, how to use their face and body to express themselves. Morris runs a ‘Face and Body’ drama workshop for educators, students, interpreters and anyone who is interested and on March 28 she will be bringing the workshop to The Box at H’art Centre in Kingston. “The workshop includes drama games, miming, different techniques for telling stories and it is very interactive and hands-on,” explained Morris. “The workshop shows people how hard it can be to communicate with just your face and body and they don’t realize how much work it can be sometimes. It is really informative.” The workshop is part of H’art Centre’s Able Artists series, an ongoing series of talks, performances and workshops that bring professional Canadian artists with disabilities and leaders in the inclusive arts movement to Kingston to share their work. Registration for this workshop is limited to 20 people, but Morris encourages more people to come and observe if they want to. She wants to open up the experience to as many people as possible and expose them to something they may not be used to. “The participants really enjoy it and it really takes them out of their comfort zone and that is what I want,” she said. “I want to break the ice. I think a lot of people have fear when it comes to deaf people and I want them to feel comfortable and realize that we are approachable. I also want to generate more interest in American Sign Language. It is a real language and many people would find it really interesting.” In addition to the workshop, Morris will also be performing her one-woman comedy show on the evening of March 28 at The Box. The show is based on her life and her experiences growing up. “In my family there are four children, three of them are deaf and one is hearing and that makes for a lot of funny experiences,” she said. “I want the audience to come see the show and feel comfortable and laugh, but learn at the same time. I want people to feel comfortable with deaf people in the future too and make them more accessible
so I try to answer the questions they may have in a comedic way.” In addition to performing her comedy show, Morris is also a professional actor, a master’s student studying inclusive design at the Ontario College of Art and Design (OCAD) and an advocate for the dramatic interpretation of music. In recent years, she has been working with musicians to perform with them, making their music more accessible to deaf or hard of hearing fans. “There are a lot of deaf and hard of hearing people who love music, but many of them don’t go to concerts because the sound becomes too jumbled and we don’t know the words,” explained Morris. “You can have a deaf person who performs with the music.

musician can make the sounds and I can interpret them visually and with emotion. I want to do this more and more because I feel that it makes music more accessible.” She hopes that in the coming years more and more artists open up to this idea of inclusive, interpretive concerts, but for now she just performs whenever and wherever she can. “I love to perform and I always have and if I can open that up to more people and show them how to express themselves or allow them to enjoy something new, I will.” For more information about Elizabeth Morris’ ‘Face and Body’ drama workshop and onewoman comedy show on March 28 visit www. hartschool.ca.

“Servicing what we sell, since 1984”
For a few nights, life is a cabaret Imagine a night out in Kingston that involves sitting in a dimly lit club. Picture small tables and perhaps a nice Cabernet, whiskey or beer in your hand as you enjoy some of the greatest show tunes ever written. You’ll have your chance to live the cabaret experience with Bottletree Productions’ Diva, Duets and Quartets — A Musical Cabaret this week at the Baby Grand Theatre from March 25 until March 28 (7:30 p.m. show time). If you want to listen to jazz or good vocals in a nightclub setting in this town, well, you can’t. You can hear great tunes in several places, but for heaven’s sake, don’t try to bring your drink to your auditorium seat. In other
words, there’s no Village Vanguard, Dizzy’s or Garage within 100 kilometres. When I got back from New York last week I bemoaned to a friend: “As much as I love Kingston, I just wish it had a place where I could sit at a table in a dark room with a civilized drink and listen to good jazz for hours.” Nothing against pubs; frankly, I love pubs, and this town certainly has no shortage of great ones. So I was going through music withdrawal last week after returning from a regular New York trip, when I received an announcement about Diva, Duets and Quartets. I immediately contacted Charles Robertson, one of Bottletree’s producers. He put me in touch with Darrell Bryan, the musical director of the show. The cabaret will feature the voices of Shawn Barber, Darrell Bryan, Isabella Cusano, Hannah Smith, Andrew Stewart and Alexander Whitehead. “I worked with Anne-Marie [Mortenson, Bottletree’s co-producer] on A Christmas Carol,” said Bryan. “It sparked a great relationship for me and Bottletree. I do like the

way this amateur company is producing some professional quality shows.” That working relationship gave birth to the cabaret concept for the Baby Grand Theatre. “We’ll have a small ensemble cast that’s been hand-picked for the project,” he said. “It has a really interesting theme: musicals.” The evening will include a diverse range of songs from throughout the history of musical theatre. “If you don’t like one song, the next will be completely different,” said Bryan. “There will be a cabaret seating of tables, a bar, a relaxed setting and an intimate venue. I think it’s the variety of music that people will enjoy.” From Vaudeville and early musical theatre to well known productions like West Side Story and the works of Andrew Lloyd Webber, the night will highlight famous and some more obscure musicals. “People will hear songs from both theatre and movie musicals,” said Bryan. “From Little Shop of Horrors to big blockbusters like Wicked, and songs from new Broadway and off-Broadway musicals like Edges, the audience will experience outstanding vocals. It will be a real smorgasbord of musical theatre coupled with an informal atmosphere. You can have a drink, relax and enjoy the music. We have a young cast with some of the best voices in the city.” He said the most difficult aspect of ar-
ranging this production was choosing what to include in the repertoire. Once that decision was made, then the order of songs was carefully crafted. Bryan said the tunes will not be in chronological order. Bryan came to Canada from the United Kingdom. He fell in love with Canada and then met his partner here. “I lived between Canada and the UK until I completed my degrees.” He moved to Toronto about 5 years ago and came to Kingston in 2013 to teach at Queen’s University as the Director of Choral Ensembles. “Moving to Kingston was the best thing I’ve done,” he said. “The opportunities afforded in Kingston are far more than in Toronto. The music and arts communities here are exceptionally supportive. I’m lucky enough to now work and teach full-time here.” Bryan is a classically trained tenor and conductor. He’s also the music director at Cooke’s-Portsmouth United Church and has his voice studio there. “I’ve been blown away by the amount of musical offerings in this city,” he said. “I’m very fortunate to do what I do for a living.” The wide range of songs you’ll find in the Divas, Duets and Quartets performance reflects Bryan’s own diverse interests.

“I enjoy jazz and pop, as well as classical,� he said. “People sometimes laugh when they hear me work one night as a classical soloist and the next day singing jazz somewhere.� He views music as the best form of communication. I have to agree. “Music can communicate very powerfully,� he said. “Music is something you find everywhere. It transcends class, culture, gender and race. Wherever you look, music is part of life. It’s a universal communicator.� Of all the arts, Bryan said that music moves him most. “To be able to produce something that has such a profound effect is both enjoyable and humbling.� Get to the Grand Theatre this week for what Darrell Bryan said is going to be the best of the musical theatre cannon. “The diversity will go back to vaudeville,� he said. “It will not be a story, but there will be a musical arc with an ebb and flow.� The show will be just under two hours, including an intermission. “The environment of the Baby Grand is well suited to Cabaret-style seating,� said Bryan. “We want a Birdland or Studio 54 atmosphere. It will be beautifully lit with stage lighting, candles on little bistro tables, and an intimate environment. It will be a professional production.� The musical work is divided equally among the six-member cast. “We’ve tried to create it so everyone has the same number of solos, duets and quartets,� said Bryan. “In terms of the cast, the thing I really enjoy with this

is that everyone feeds off each other’s energy. Often in shows, you have that one solo singer, but this is very much divided among the six people.

Thoughtful robot cop movie doesn’t come quite as advertised By Mark Haskins My Take
Imagine a more philosophical version of Robocop, and you have a fair idea of what Chappie is about. A little less about shooting stuff, and a little more about questioning the nature of consciousness. In the not-so-distant future Johannesburg has become overrun by violence and crime. Desperate for a way to turn the tide the police begin using police droids. These robotic police officers are intelligent, nigh-indestructible, and they’re working. Their creator, Deon (Dev Patel), is thrilled by his droids’ success, but for him they’re just a beginning. His goal has always been to create a true artificial intelligence. A being that can think, feel, and potentially be smarter than a human. It’s a dream he’s about to realize. Deon has the code that could lead to a new consciousness, but his employer, Michelle Bradley (Sigourney Weaver), isn’t interested. So Deon
steals a droid scheduled for demolition to test his code. Just as he’s leaving the factory he gets kidnapped. A desperate gang of thugs takes Deon believing he can show them how to turn the police droids off. Under threat of his life Deon is forced to program the droid he stole with his new software. With the flick of a switch Chappie (Sharito Copley) is born. Suddenly Ninja (Ninja), Yolandi (Yo-Landi Visser), and Amerkia (Jose Pablo Cantillo) have a new plan. They’re going to use Chappie to pull off their heists. Deon is forced to leave Chappie with the criminals, and the film becomes the oddest argument of nature versus nurture ever. Chappie isn’t exactly the movie that was advertised, but it’s not the first time the advertising department didn’t understand or bother to see the film. Chappie isn’t about fighting against an oppressive robotic regime, it’s about the nature of consciousness. In that respect the film really shines. The child-like way in which Chappie is brought to life, and becomes aware is uniquely

compelling. I was amazed by how quickly and easily Blomkamp was able to get the audience (myself included) to accept Chappie as a sentient being. Where the film falls short is anytime they try to blow things up. I found the action scenes were thrown in as a necessary evil. The slow motion, the close-up death scenes instead of being dramatic just proved to be kind of cheesy. The cast is decent. I wasn’t impressed by Ninja or Yo-Landi Visser, but Sharito Copley is truly remarkable as he shows us Chappie becoming aware. I liked Dev Patel and Sigourney Weaver, and it was kind of interesting to see Hugh Jackman try to play a villain. In the end I found Chappie an interesting thought experiment. I’m not sure I agree with some of the assumptions made about how an A.I. would become aware, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. As an action movie however it left something to be desired.

Winter was still a long way from being over “Don’t count on it,” Father said from behind the Family Herald and Weekly Star. Mother, instead of sitting at the end of the old pine table in front of her diaries as usual, that night was gathering up mitts, wool hats, and ordering us, the five of us, to put our long underwear in the dirty clothes, because it wasn’t likely we would be wearing it again the next day. Coming from the Northcote school that day, we had to carry our coats as the sun beat down on us, and the smell of Spring was in the air. Just a few days before, it was cold and a fierce wind cut across the twenty-acre field, and there was no doubt in anyone’s mind that Winter was still around. But now, so soon after, the
on a long winter.” He relit his pipe. “And remember when we butchered and the pig liver ‘melt’ showed those little lumps...well, that told me what we were in for.” Mother just shook her head, and once again told Father that those “old wives tales” as she called them, held no water with her! The next morning, I could hear Father in the kitchen lighting the fire as he did every morning. And the bedroom had chilled off overnight, as I ran to jump into my clothes for school, so glad to be rid of the long underwear. But it seemed awfully bright out the bedroom window, and it wasn’t an early morning sun either. I went to the window, and lo and behold, the snow was coming down in buckets full!! And it looked like it had snowed all night! Then I heard Mother coming up the stairs. She had dug out the long underwear from the pile of clothes we had taken off the night before, and without a word, handed them
over to each of us. When we went downstairs for breakfast, our hats, mitts and scarves were waiting for us at the back door. Father came in from the chores and sat down at the table for his breakfast. Mother was banging the frying pan around on the top of the stove. She was wearing the look she wore when she was as mad as a hatter. Father knew better than to mention the signs he had talked about the night before, or to say, “I told you so”, when Mother hissed, “And I don’t want to hear about the deer eating low branches or spots of a pig’s liver.” The snow was as deep as it had been at the first of the winter and we would find out it would come down for the next three days. Even my brother Emerson who usually had a lot to say, never opened his mouth at the kitchen table that morning, except to shovel in the porridge and toast. It was the quietest breakfast we’d had in a long time.

Findlay Oval. Finally, he couldn’t keep quiet any longer. “I’m telling you Mabel, there’s plenty winter out there yet. Everyone will be back in that long underwear, you can bet on it!” Mother stopped gathering up the mitts, hats and scarves. “Now, Albert, where were you all day? I’m telling you we’ve seen the last of the snow. Sure, it’s like May out there today.” Father lifted the lid off the Findlay Oval and slapped his pipe into the firebox, emptying it, and getting ready for another load of pipe tobacco. He took his time sitting back down in the rocking chair. And then he went on to explain to Mother once again all the signs that pointed to a long winter, and that it wasn’t over yet, and it mattered not how warm it was that day, or if all the snow had gone off the Northcote Side road. He explained a sure sign was how deep the early snow was. “That’s a sure sign. If the deer can reach the branches of the trees, you can count

weather changed, and we could see that much of the snow had gone from the fields, and the Northcote Side road was bare. It was no wonder Mother said Spring was in the air, and it was time to get rid of the heavy clothes, and that included the long underwear we had been wearing since the first bite of winter in the Fall. There wasn’t one of us who wasn’t thrilled to be rid of the hateful long John’s. After months of weekly washings, they had lost their softness, the ankles were stretched beyond repair, and the elastic around the waist hung limp. We were more than happy to bid the long underwear goodbye! That night, Mother was gathering up the mitts, scarves and hats, and piling everything on a chair near the back door. It wasn’t Monday, so there would be no washing. Everything would have to wait for the laundry tub until after the weekend. I could see Father shaking his head from his rocking chair by the

vorite movies was Alien. The fun, fluffy stuff never captivated me the same way. There’s something about the fear response that’s a lot more interesting.” Her dark-side taste carries over into her choice of movies. “I like the darker stuff there, too. Lots of the classics like Dracula, and others like the Virgin Suicides and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. I do enjoy the more fantasy horror things. But I really like movies that delve into the human experience.” Her newest work is a series called The Witches of Armour Hill. The first novel in the five-part series is called Switch. At the moment, she’s fine-tuning it via Wattpad, a Canadian company with a website where writers can test out their work on beta readers. “What if?” is the basis of all fiction. The Witches of Armour Hill has a great “what if?” It’s based on a local legend from the Peterborough area. “People think that in 1840 a woman was tried for witchcraft and burned alive on Armour Hill,” said Cooper. “There’s no real substantial evidence that this happened, but many people in the community know the story and believe it.” Cooper took that belief and created a story following the woman’s descendants. “My dad got a trailer in Peterborough, and I’ve had a lot of time to go through the woods where the burning supposedly took place.

Alyssa Cooper has written two novels and had her work published in two anthologies. She started creating stories before she could even write words. “I used to write about things happening on the street,” she said. “I had a little red and black notebook. I’d draw pictures, and then my dad wrote the captions. When I got older I started writing stories about my pets.” She said her dog, a pit bull and white lab cross, was her hero. “I wrote a story about the dog who attacked aliens who were trying to kidnap my family,” she said. “It was very graphic.” She grew up in Belleville, but always had a desire to move to Kingston. She took a lot of arts courses like creative writing, music and drama in high school. After high school she spent two years at York University in the fine arts program, then switched to a three-year graphic design program at Durham College in Oshawa. In the final part of her program, she completed an internship back in Belleveille and was then offered a job, which she accepted. She still longed to move to Kingston. “There’s so much history here,”
she said. “In Belleville, Oshawa and Toronto everything looks so new and you can’t see the history. Here [in Kingston] it’s all so beautiful. The place isn’t overly ruined by modern construction. And there all the Ducks Unlimited natural areas.” Finally, about 6 years ago, she got her chance. Her boyfriend came here for his education. Alyssa came with him. “We were looking for any chance to move here,” she said. In addition to her writing, she works as a freelancer in graphic design. She completed her first novel, Salvation, in 2012, her second, Benjamin, in 2013. Her first two novels and an anthology followed the traditional publishing route. Cooper became somewhat discouraged by the lack of support from small publishers and decided to self-publish her next works. “Small publishing houses don’t have advertising budgets anyway,” she said. She’ll use organizations like Amazon, Smashwords and Createspace for her future publishing and distribution process. She plans on a crowdfunding campaign to finance the publishing. Her fascination with history and old buildings fits well with her latest novel. “It’s witchy and mysterious,” she said. “I’ve always had a fascination with the darker side of fiction. Even when I was younger, one of my fa-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I sometimes literally sit in the car looking for a piece of paper to write on. Sometimes I wake up and write something down before I do anything else.â&#x20AC;? Her other sage advice: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If anyone asks you for money up front, run in the opposite direction. Never pay anyone to publish you. If theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re legitimate, they will have the overhead funding to do that for you. Always do your research. If you have an offer from a publisher,
find other authors published by the same company and check things out with them.â&#x20AC;? This summer you can meet and chat with Alyssa Cooper. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be appearing at Limestone Genre Expo 2015 at the Ongwanada Resource Centre on July 25. For more details about that event, visit limestonegenre.ca.

Both events were organized to raise awareness in the community and both were extremely successful. “We see more and more people coming out each year and people contacting us for information as well,” said Susan Harrison, executive director of the centre. “We actu¤ ally implemented ‘ambassador kits’ this year and we’ve had workplaces and schools contacting us.

Soul Intentions encourages Kingstonians to find stress free happpiness By Mandy Marciniak
mmarciniak@theheritageemc.ca
Events – We all aim to live a happy and fulfilling life, but sometimes stress can get in the way. Leigh Burton knows a lot about the impacts of stress, how to cope with it and come out on the other side and now she wants to teach others in the community that they can too. “You need to love yourself enough to love yourself better,” she explained. “Two years ago I went through life like anyone else. We all have our own inhibitions, fears and insecurities and stuff like that and as life went on I started getting more and more stressed out and I got myself very sick from stress.” Burton, who was working as a nurse at the time, was forced to take time off work to deal with her sickness. She also learned she had cancer. Then she developed fibromyalgia and lost her ability to walk. “I just couldn’t believe that this was how my life was going to go. I couldn’t believe that there wasn’t more to this great life for me,” she said. “I decided to take a new path and give it my all and a year and a half later, last summer, I was in Mexico climbing the third largest pyramid in the world.” Burton travelled to Teotihuacan, Mexico, and a Toltec site where
man becomes god. She went with develop yourself and work on makDon Miguel Ruiz and his family, ing yourself the best that you can who wrote about the ‘four agree- be because you deserve it,” added ments’. These concepts were life- Burton. “I myself am always up changing and inspiring for Burton for more growth and learning and I love witnessing others have that and, she hopes, many others. “I know the teachings work and ‘wow’ moment when they get it. now I offer to help others. I offer They realize they can do it and that detoxifying systems that will help is so great to see. I learn from it evto get your body running in a way ery time.” For more information about Burthat allows you to start focusing on your mind. I offer workshops too to ton and her teachings visit http:// www.soulintentions.net/ help others achieve what I have.” Burton even wrote a book about her experiences entitled ‘A Girl, Leigh Burton is owner of Soul Ina Rose and a Two Headed snake’ tention in Kingston. and in it she chronicles her journey Photo/Mandy Marciniak through Teotihuacan and her search for truth. She hopes it will inspire others to do the same. “Truth is what I call the Toltec way of life. A way of life free from judgement, chaos, drama, and fear. A life that is filled with abundance, prosperity, freedom, and personal well being. My journey led me here, where I can share this way of life.” Burton shares these teachings further through Soul Intentions, a business she developed and runs out of her home. She encourages everyone to come out and see what she has to offer, even if they think that they don’t have anything that needs work. “It is important, even if you are a strong person, that you continue to

Secret Trial documentary plays in Kingston By Aric McBay
A new documentary about secret trials in Canada played at The Screening Room on March 15 as part of a tour by filmmakers Amar Wala, Noah Bingham, and Madeleine Cohen. The film centers around five men who were arrested and accused of being associated with terrorism in the years after Sept. 11, under a legal device called a “security certificate.” Though imprisoned, the men were not actually charged with any crime, and the alleged evidence against them was kept secret for reasons of “national security.” While the men asserted their innocence, because they had not been charged with anything they could not defend themselves in court. As a result, the five men spent, collectively, 30 years in prison before being put on strict house arrest conditions. Director Amar Wala decided to
make the film after reading that their house arrest circumstances were so bad one of the men asked to be returned to prison, even though he had already spent seven years there without charge. “The idea that he would actually rather return to prison rather than live under these conditions was extremely alarming to me,” Wala explained. “Many experts were calling these the strictest house arrest conditions in history. They had cameras in their homes. They were followed by government agents on their family outings.” The film’s story is told largely through interviews with the men and their families, giving the viewer a glimpse into their lives. “When we see them in the news and when we see their names we build this caricature in our mind,” said Wala.” The Arab Muslim man has become sort of the modern boogie man. We felt like if we just put them on the screen the barriers would break down quite
naturally, and they did.” The Secret Trial 5 also relies on interviews with legal experts who explain the serious problems with the security certificate system and with secret trials in general. When it premiered last year at Hot Docs the film was voted “Top Ten Audience Favourite” and also won the Audience Choice award at the Amnesty International Film Festival in Vancouver. “The response from the audiences has been overwhelmingly positive, especially with the new concerns around Bill C-51,” said Wala. “We’ve been very encouraged by the way Canadians have been responding to the film.” Mary Ann Higgs, a lawyer who was in the audience at the screening, was pleased that viewers “got to know the detainees as the real and varied individuals and members of families,” despite the fact that they hadn’t been given a chance to “defend themselves on the nebu-
lous allegations against them in a fair trial.” The film’s story has many Kingston connections. Queen’s law professor Sharryn Aiken and Perth-based community organizer Matthew Behrens are both interviewed in the film. And the five men spent time imprisoned at nearby Millhaven Institution, where a special facility was constructed in 2006 for the exclusive purpose of holding them. The Kingston Immigration Holding Centre, dubbed “Guantanamo North” by critics, was built at a cost of $3.2 million, but was closed in 2011 and subsequently dismantled. Since then, the federal government has dropped its allegations against two of the men, Adil Charkaoui and Hassan Almrei. Both men are now suing the federal government over their treatment. Three of the men, however, are still under house arrest.
The film has become especially topical because of widespread debate over Bill C-51, which could vastly expand the government’s secret policing powers. Amar Wala warns: “Any time we place an emphasis on security, while compromising certain parts of the principles we hold dear, our civil liberties, it’s an extremely dangerous thing. And it’s something that needs to be scrutinized and talked about.” Lawyer Mary Ann Higgs agrees. “Security certificates haven’t worked and are an embarrassment in a democracy,” she said, “but they will become a norm if we don’t defeat C-51.” You can learn more about the film at www.secrettrial5.com, which also has options to stream or download the documentary. Wala encourages viewers to go on social media or tweet with the hashtag #st5film.

Frontenac Islands plans for fuel depot
It is the vacation of a lifetime.
There is an emergency.
By Margaret Knott
Heritage news- The closure of Mosier’s Gas outlet, the only one on Wolfe Island (WI) has left many islanders strapped for gas. Larger users have personal tanks at their farms, homes and businesses. Residents however have little choice but to travel to the city, using up space on the ferry to have tanks and extra containers filled for mowers, snow blowers, 2nd vehicles, etc., a situation which will only get worse when the Wolfe Islander is replaced by the smaller Frontenac 2 and as the very important tourist season begins and our cottagers return. The good news is that Frontenac Islands CAO Plumley has submitted a funding application (Eastern Ontario Development Program Application) to the Community Futures Development Corporation . The application proposes a lease agreement to house a a Card/ Lock System for fuel distribution at the WI Municipal Public Works location. The importance of this initiative is seen by the township as a means to sustain, improve and grow Wolfe Island’s economy. (Also an important initiative for ferry demand management.)
1:45 PM It is the vacation of a lifetime. There is an emergency. The doctor is asking questions. You’re not able to answer.
And speaking of transportation demand management, a resident at the meeting suggested that who may use the MTO parking lot at the Kingston ferry dock needs not only to be clarified but to be monitored. He also suggested a need for much more MTO parking not only for islanders but for guests going to Marysville.
2. At the March Frontenac Islands council meeting where AECOM’s Guy Laporte brought news concerning the planned closure of the WI Landfill site (Sept 2015.) and its importance instead as a recycling depot and waste transfer station, he also brought news of the DeBruin Farms organic waste diversion program (brought to the attention of council last year by Kenny Godin.) Laporte said that with the quick turn around to amend the site’s Environmental Compliance Approval (ECA), he has prepared an addendum to the operation plan to allow the waste diversion process to move forward. Godin, responsible for collection and delivery of organic waste to DeBruins already has the extra large bins ready to be put in place at the site. A list of items, acceptable and unaccept-
able for the bins will be available soon. The program is considered easy to implement and important for the community. FYI Mayor Doyle, Frontenac County Warden has been appointed to the AMO (Association of Municipalities of Ontario) Waste M<anagement Task Force as the County Caucus elected representative. Mayor Doyle acknowledged that a lot was going on with regard to waste management at the county level and through the Eastern Ont. Wardens Conferce (EOWC) and the province at AMO.. “The hope of EOWC is to work together on a long term collective approach to waste management. 3.

The Magic of Pasta By Kate Kristiansen
My favorite memo- ries often include my family and pasta. I dream of a perfect mound of flour as I make a well, and add the eggs, salt, and olive oil, lightly beating them together, with the silky pasta dough in my hands. Making pasta is about sharing and community. I envision Italian families cooking together at the pasta table, nonna waving her dusty flour covered hands around, nattering about the old country. Even for those who don’t have an Italian lineage, this should be a time of family and friends, swapping stories, cooking techniques, and laughing with each other. Food tastes better when there is a healthy dose of love is added. “Life is a combination of magic and pasta,” said Frederico Fellini. Dining in or out, there is a real pleasure in a plateful of warm pasta, sauce, and a table of good company. Pasta in all its forms - spaghetti, rigatoni, penne, fusilli, rotini, linguine, lasagna and pappardelle – fills the belly and soul when blended with g simple ingredients. in at rs! Is there a difference between dried r b a pasta vs. fresh? Dried pasta is not old ele3 Ye C fresh pasta. Dried is made of little 2 more than semolina flour, water and salt and can be stored at room tem-
food retailers in Kingston such as John’s Deli, Pan Chancho, Tara Foods, Wendy’s Mobile Market and Limestone Organic Creamery. Pasta Tavola is an artisanal ravioli and pasta company based in Belleville at 109 North Front St. They produce hot oven-ready meals, fresh pasta and sauces made from local ingredients. Pasta Tavola products contain no artificial fillers, additives, preservatives or chemical seasonings. Both pasta companies make small batches of handmade pastas and sauces. They also each offer cooking classes to teach you how to make pasta at home. You should sign up early as classes fill up quickly. As Pasta Genova does not have a website, dropping by their Wellington Street location is the best way to learn more about their classes. Pasta Tavola hosts classes in Belleville and Ottawa. Check out their website for more information at www. Pastatavola.ca. If you want a quick, easy meal for friends and family ,drop in to pick up an oven ready meal or fresh pasta and sauces from either of these locations. You will not be disappointed! If you have a restaurant suggestion or foodie biz suggestion, please contact me at ladydinesalot@gmail.com, follow my blog LadyDinesAlot.com or on Facebook & Twitter.

perature for almost ever. Fresh pasta is made of eggs; it is slightly more tender and takes less time to cook. The delicate texture is best with light sauces made with tomato, cream, oil or butter with herbs. One of the reasons I like freezing my summer garden herbs (a tip from my friend Lesli) is so I can add them to fresh pastas in the winter. When I am short on time, I purchase fresh pasta to make a quick dish from my favorite retail kitchens: Pasta Genova and Pasta Tavola. For the past 27 years, Pasta Genova has served up fresh pasta, sauces, and pizza dough made on site. The small red, white and green building is located at 234 Wellington Street, between Queen and Barrack Streets. It holds a special place in Kingstonians’ hearts with its helpful staff and variety of pasta, sauce, breads, deli meats, cheese, imported Italian favorites and premium olive oils. Another favorite of mine is Pasta Tavola. You can purchase their homemade pastas and sauces in many specialty

Add upcycling to your home improvement tools piece for her bedroom. She gave it a new coat of paint, new silver/glass pulls and flocking on the drawer interiors. You can see the entire process by visiting Woodworking Adventures and searching for “The Jewelry Armoire Makeover.” An Irwin Marples Blue Chip Chisel was used for the disassembly that was required to add new hardware and make other changes to Lori’s armoire. To remove the residue from old finishes and polish, Lori chose Norton Soft Touch Medium 120-180 Grit Sanding Sponges for the contour detailed areas and Preppin Weapon Sanding Blocks, loaded with Mirka Abranet 23⁄4” x 8” Sanding Sheets, for flat areas. Once the sanding was finished, all the pieces were cleaned with General Finishes Furniture Cleaner using handy Star Wipers rags. Three coats of General Finishes Black Gel Stain were applied to the armoire. Although each coat was allowed to dry overnight because of other commitments, the actual time required between coats is two to four hours. (Gel stains come in 12 other colors including the popular java.) Two coats of General Finishes High Performance Satin Water-Based Top Coat were applied next. To prep for the new hardware, Golden Oak Water-Base Famowood Filler was used to plug screw holes. More chiseling was required before a pair of 11⁄2” X 11⁄8” Satin Nickel Stop Hinges could be installed. Before reflocking the drawers, Bulls Eye Sealcoat Universal Sanding Sealer was applied to the interior of

(MS) — Upcycling is not just for craft projects — it offers lots of possibilities to make changes in your home décor, especially cabinets and furniture that will save money and reduce your contribution to the local landfill. Woodcraft can help you with upcycling ideas, products and advice. For the past year, Woodcraft retail stores have hosted upcycling demonstrations on the third Saturday of the month to help customers discover the potential for upcycling in their home projects. “To support this upcycling effort, Woodcraft.com added an Upcycling Resource Center to our website (http://www.woodcraft.com/media/ upcycling.aspx) to introduce viewers to upcycling and announce demo topics and dates,” Vince Grlovich, vice president for sales and marketing, said. “Viewers can also watch a segment of Lifetime’s Designing Spaces where Woodcraft product development manager Kent Harpool shows host Aliane Baquerot how to create a shelf from a wooden pallet.” Both Woodcraft’s Pinterest page (www.pinterest.com/woodcraftsupply/upcycling) and Instagram gallery (http://instagram.com/woodcraftgallery) include upcycling ideas, and the blog, Woodworking Adventures (http//:blog.woodcraft.com) has featured upcycling several times. Jewelry Armoire Makeover Inspired by the upcycling trend, many Woodcraft employees have completed projects, including marketing manager Lori Haught, who transformed a 1980s Jewelry Armoire (see photo) into a more stylish, modern
