Frigid temperatures don’t put the chill on Polar Bear Plunge participants By Sue Dickens

News - Campbellford - Bonechilling cold did not put a chill on the enthusiasm of 15 fearless participants in the 23rd annual Polar Bear Plunge held last Saturday by the Auxiliary to Campbellford Memorial Hospital. According to the Weather Network it was -22 degrees Celsius at dawn and by noon when the plunge took place, temperatures had only risen to about -15. Firemen from the Trent Hills Fire Department cut a hole in the ice for the plungers and two remained suited up in proper winter gear in the river while others remained at the shoreline to ensure the safety of all participants. In keeping with their tradition of taking the plunge every year The Ellis Family plungers, Amanda MacKenzie (nĂŠe Ellis) and her brother Dane were there to take a leap into the frigid waters. It’s a plunge they take every year in memory of their grandfather, well known and respected physician Dr. Tom Hackett. “It’s colder coming out than going in, but it’s a few seconds of Gontran Collins, a Rotary exchange student attending Campbellford District High School, made a hasty exit from the river after plunging into the frigid waters holding the Bra- pain and it’s all over with ‌ for a good cause,â€? said Dane Ellis. zilian flag of his home country.

His sister agreed. “The reason that we do it is our connection with the hospital and for our grandfather who is having a really good laugh wherever he is today. That is our motivation for freezing every single year,â€? she added with a grin. For John Russell, executive director of the hospital, and the sole member of the Chilly Willies, his penguin walk to the hole in the ice offered a chance to build up the excitement in the crowd of supporters that had gathered in spite of the frigid temperatures. “I want to support the hospital and the auxiliary is a good partner to the hospital foundation. We work together on a lot of things,â€? he commented before heading to the school buses on site set up to keep plungers warm. The actual plunge took just over a minute or so for each participant so the event was ďŹ nished in about 15 minutes. “Everybody seemed to have fun,â€? said organizer Sharon Apted. “We don’t really know numbers until everything gets counted but as far as participants this year we’re very happy with the numbers that came,â€? she concluded.

had a bounteous harvest of seasonal vegetables and herbs; some were used during its second annual community dinner which attracted over 200 people, some to the Havelock Food Bank and others taken home by volunteers who signed on to look after individual gardens. The initiative was a triumphant success after a rather circuitous route at the municipal council level which saw several proposals set aside because of public opposition to what was then a 20-garden idea. The ten completely organic gardens which emerged put to rest any misconceptions about the nature of community gardens and community gardening. The gardens, each tended by different people, included a multiplicity of tomatoes, kale, beans, carrots, onions,

peppers, lettuce, parsley, broccoli, potatoes, cabbage and celery. Water, from rain barrels and tap, was easily accessible and tools were provided at the site. There was also plenty of expert help and guidance for novice gardeners. “It was an amazing accomplishment from a lot of people,� said committee member Kathy Hamilton. “Without the help of the Master Gardeners [Judy Bernard and Cathy Dueck] I don’t think it would have looked so good. We just barely made it into the growing season because we were not able to get a place. That was quite a challenge.

Stop smoking program helps pregnant women, moms with young kids News - Peterborough - Quitting smoking isn’t any easier when you’re pregnant. Thanks to a new partnership between Peterborough CountyCity Health Unit and the Partners in Pregnancy Clinic (PIPC), local area women who are pregnant or have young children have more options to help them quit smoking and to stay smoke free. The Choose to Be ‌ Smoke Free quit smoking program is tailored specifically for women, incorporating best practices, women’s knowledge of their community and lived experi-

ences. “We find that women who are pregnant or just finished pregnancy are very motivated for healthy lifestyle changes. This government funding allows more women to access this smoking cessation program and we are very pleased to be part of it,� said Dr. Joan Himann, lead physician with PIPC. “Pregnant women who are trying to quit smoking report feeling guilty, ashamed and alone that’s why we’re thrilled to be part of this innovative program,� says Mary Pat Fasken, a

Master Gardener Judy Bernard says it was an “absolutely amazing� accomplishment. “The credit goes to the committee for not giving up [and] for working to get this going,� she said. “There’s no rows, no wasted land,� Bernard said of the innovative raised gardens. “You can just jam-pack that full of plants; even though tomatoes need a certain amount of space you’ve still got room for all kinds of other things.

The program combines behavioural counselling and group support with access to free nicotine replacement therapy which is made possible through funding from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care. Other key program components include free transportation, help with childcare, positive smoke free resources, women-centred quit kits, opportunities for social networking, and incentives such as weekly gift cards for a grocery store or pharmacy. Local rates of smoking throughout pregnancy are higher in Peterborough County and City than the provincial average, the health unit notes. The Choose to Be ‌ Smoke Free program helps women identify barriers and opportunities for change, build confidence and motivation, ultimately improving their chances of meeting smoking cessation goals and living smoke free. â€œThe good news is it’s never too late to quit smoking. There are benefits to quitting smoking at any stage of pregnancy,â€? Fasken says.

OPINION

Peak Everything

Editorial - Peak oil is so last year. Now we can worry about peak everything: peak food, peak soil, peak fertiliser, even peak bees. Let’s start small. We depend on bees to pollinate plants that account for about onethird of the world’s food supply, but since 2006 bee colonies in the United Gwynne Dyer States have been dying off at an unprecedented rate. More recently the same “colony collapse disorder” has appeared in China, Egypt and Japan. Many suspect that the main cause is a widely used type of pesticides called neonicotinoids, but the evidence is not yet conclusive. The fact remains that one-third of the American bee population has disappeared in the past decade. If the losses spread and deepen, we may face serious food shortages. Then there’s peak fertiliser, or more precisely peak phosphate rock. Phosphorus is a critical ingredient of fertiliser, and it is the eightfold increase in the use of fertilisers that has enabled us to triple food production worldwide from about the same area of land in the past 60 years. At the moment we are mining about 200 million tonnes of phosphate rock a year, and the global reserve that could be mined at a reasonable cost with current technology is estimated at about 16 billion tonnes. At the current level of production it won’t run out entirely for 80 years, but the increasing demand for fertilisers to feed the growing population means that phosphate production is rising fast. As with peak oil, the really important date is not when there are no economically viable phosphate rock reserves left, but when production starts to fall. Peak phosphate is currently no more than 40 years away—or much less, if fertiliser use continues to grow. After that, it’s back to organic fertilisers, which mainly means the urine and feces of ten or twelve billion human beings and their domesticated animals. Good luck with that. Peak soil is a trickier notion, but it derives from the more concrete concept that we are “mining” the soil: degrading and exhausting it by growing single-crop “monocultures,” using too much fertiliser and irrigating too enthusiastically, all in the name of higher crop yields. “We know far more about the amount of oil there is globally and how long those stocks will last than we know about how much soil there is,” said John Crawford, Director of the Sustainable Systems Program in Rothamsted Research in England. “Under business as usual, the current soils that are in agricultural production will yield

Trent Hills Independent

about thirty per cent less … by around 2050.” The United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organisation estimates that 25 per cent of the world’s soils that are currently under cultivation are severely degraded, and another eight per cent moderately degraded. (Even “moderately degraded” soil has lost half its capacity to store water.) And the only way to access new, undamaged soil is to deforest the rest of the planet. All of which brings us to the issue of peak food. And here the concept of “peak” undergoes a subtle modification, because it no longer means “maximum production, after which yields start to fall.” It just means “the point at which the growth in production stops accelerating”: it’s the peak rate of growth, not actual peak production. But even that is quite ominous, if you think about it. During the latter part of the 20th century, food production grew at around 3.5 per cent per year, comfortably ahead of population growth, but the dramatic rise in crop yields was owing to new inputs of fertilisers and pesticides, much more irrigation, and new “green revolution” crop varieties. Now those one-time improvements have largely run their course, and global food production is rising at only 1.5 per cent a year. Population growth has slowed too, so we’re still more or less keeping up with demand, but there are signs that food production in many areas is running up against what researchers at the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, in a report last year called “a biophysical yield ceiling for the crop in question.” Production of the food in question stops rising, then may even fall—and extra investment often doesn’t help. The “peak” in this context is an early warning that there will eventually be a complete cessation of growth, possibly followed by an absolute decline. Peak maize happened in 1985, peak rice and wild fish in 1988, peak dairy in 1989, peak eggs in 1993, and peak meat in 1996. (The numbers come from a recent report by scientists at Yale, Michigan State University and the Helmholtz Centre in Germany in the journal Ecology and Society.) More recent peaks were vegetables in 2000, milk and wheat in 2004, poultry in 2006, and soya bean in 2009. Indeed, 16 of the 21 foods examined in the Ecology and Society report have already peaked, and production levels have actually flattened out for key regions amounting to 33 per cent of global rice and 27 per cent of global wheat production. So we are already in trouble, and it will get worse even before climate change gets bad. There are still some quick fixes available, notably by cutting down on waste: more than a third of the food that is grown for human consumption never gets eaten. But unless we come up with some new “magic bullets,” things will be getting fairly grim on the food front by the 2030s.

Why I don’t blame the Leafs jersey tossers By Stephen Petrick Editorial - Among the things in life I can’t afford are a $175 Toronto Maple Leafs jersey and a $500 ticket to sit low enough at a Leafs game that I could toss my jersey onto the ice in disgust–as has been the trend among disgruntled Leafs fans lately. But if I could afford such a ticket maybe I would. In a metaphorical sense, I threw my Leafs jersey away years ago. As of this writing, the Leafs are stuck in a ninegame losing streak and sit 12 points out of a playoff spot in the National Hockey League’s Eastern Conference. It’s hardly uncharted territory. The Leafs have made the Stanley Cup play-offs just once in the last nine years and haven’t been to a final since they won the Cup last in 1967. The outcome of this is a fan base and an organization that’s so frustrated it doesn’t know what to do. Leafs players have been ridiculed in the media (Google “Phil Kessel”) and the team’s young general manager Dave Nonis fired its likable coach Randy Carlyle the same week that he was attending a family member’s funeral. (Classy!) This season the Leafs have endured a whopping seven-goal loss, four shutout losses in January alone and some blooper-like moments, including a goal scored against them from centre ice last Saturday. It would seem that’s the reason why several jerseys have been thrown to the Air Canada Centre ice this year; a visible show of disgust by the home fans for the poor play of late. But, really, the players involved in this year’s follies represent just one chapter in a long and soiled history of the team that plays in the world’s most hockey mad market. Despite all the analysis you hear on sports talk shows, it’s important to remember that who wins or loses a game on any given day is a matter of chance. Any team can go through more than its fair share of injuries and bad luck on a given night or season. And this year’s Leafs are a perfect example. But to get perspective, fans need to look at the long-term trends of a franchise. Most teams, in a span of a decade, have a mix of good and bad years. But certain teams are almost always good. That’s a sign of an organization’s commitment to winning. Other teams, like the Leafs, are almost

always bad–at least from a win-loss perspective. On the business side of things, few sports franchises are as healthy as the Leafs. According to Forbes magazine’s recent ranking of pro sports franchises, the Leafs are the most valuable team in the NHL, with a worth of $1.15 billion U.S. They also have the league’s most expensive tickets. It’s virtually impossible to buy an individual game ticket–as they’re owned mostly by corporate season ticket holders–but according to TiqIQ, a resale ticket market aggregator, the medium price for a Leafs ticket on the resale market this season is $373.50 U.S. So who can blame a fan who gets angry when he shells out that price and doesn’t get to see a goal? In the 1970s and 1980s the Leafs were run by a man named Harold Ballard who was so money driven that, in one famous instance, he raised the heat in Maple Leaf Gardens on a summer night when the Beatles were in town, to sell more drinks. The Leafs were bad in those years, but experienced a rejuvenation after his death and made some spirited play-off runs in the 1990s and early 2000s. But the Leafs, for the better part of last decade, have returned to their normal place throughout history and today it’s harder for fans to figure out who to blame. Now, teams aren’t owned by cheap businessmen. They’re run by analytics-driven corporations that only know how to make profits. The Leafs are run by an organization called Maple Leafs Sports and Entertainment, which is owned jointly by Bell Canada and Rogers Communications–two corporations that aren’t hurting for money. And there’s no need for them to pump more money into the Leafs to make them winners. Win or lose, the Leafs sell out every night, with ticket prices well above the average hockey fan’s range. I grew up cheering for the Leafs in the 1990s, on the wishes of my father, who still writes to me almost daily complaining about the team’s latest loss. But somewhere in between Mike Foligno’s final leap and Wendel Clark’s last big hit, I stopped cheering for the blue and white. Maybe it’s because, after so many seasons, you start learning how the world works. You know, at a certain time of the spring, the leafs will be out.

“We have a problem here with people tearing down signs after we put them up. We wouldn’t have that problem if we had one big structure,� Millett said, referring to recent thefts that saw nine signs stolen, eight 60-kilometres-an-hour signs and one “share the road� sign. The signs were installed to remind drivers to slow down especially at the intersection of the Centre Line and the 7th Line, the scene of several recent accidents. “Personally I’d like to see the speed limit in our township reduced.

News - Warkworth - In 1947 three local businessmen, Grant Allen (Insurance), Bill Bowen (Warkworth Lumber) and the Royal Bank manager got together and formed the Warkworth Businessmen’s Club. Its mandate was to raise funds to provide financial assistance for local youth organizations that existed. In a press release it was noted that it became apparent that in order to fulfill that mandate the club would require additional members. Thus the doors were opened to a wider group and the club became the Warkworth Community Service Club. The club has evolved over the years and now has a broad spectrum of men and women members. From those beginnings in 1947, there are now over 100 members supporting a very aggressive fundraising and community support agenda. Last year the club provided over $39,000 as well as thousands of volunteer hours to various community projects. Here is a sampling of where support goes: Art-

worth, Guides, Minor Hockey, 4-H Club, Percy Centennial School, Santa Claus Parade, Bridge Hospice, Nursing Home, Community Kitchen, Northumberland Junior Farmers, 7 Hills Pantry, Lilac Festival, Medical Centre, Millennium Lilac Trail, Memorial Forest, Minor Baseball, Percy Agricultural Society, Campbellford District High School, Westben Youth Chorus, fire truck, heritage buildings, CDHS Jazz Band, Cornerstone Family Violence Centre, Guiding, Community Care Campbellford, Northumberland Jr. Farmers, Royal Canadian Legion, Salvation Army Campbellford, Giving Tree, Community Gallery, Community Kitchen, Play Group, Free Methodist Church, St. Andrews Presbyterian Church, St. Jerome Catholic Church, St. Paul’s UCW, St. Paul’s United Church. The organization is an independent service club and welcomes new members. For more information, please check our website at <www.warkworthcsc.ca>.

HPS surveys parents News - Hastings - Hastings Public School parents are being surveyed to see if there is interest in an extended before- and after-school program starting this fall at the school. In a letter to parents and guardians, HPS principal Sarah Rogers has asked if they are interested in having their children registered for a fee-based extended day program that would be offered by a not-forprofit childcare agency. The program could potentially run from 7 a.m. to the beginning of the regular school day and from the end of school until 6 p.m. and for a full day on non-instructional days. The childcare agency would run activities “connected to the learning that happens during the regular

school day,” says Rogers. The program would include a “mix of exploration, guided and independent activities, quiet time and outdoor play,” she added. The fees would be collected by the childcare agency and would fall into a range of costs that are approved by the Ministry of Education and the Kawartha Pine Ridge District School Board. Municipal childcare subsidies may be available. The before-school fees would range from $8 to $20 per child; the after-school fees would range from $12 to $20 per child. The fee for both before and after school would range from $16 to $26 per child. In order to run the extended day

program at HPS they would need to have a minimum of 20 children enrolled, says Rogers. “We are gathering data on the numbers of interested Kindergarten children [four to five years old] and school-age children [six to 12 years of age].” If parents have older children who would be interested in the program they are being asked to include that information as well. The fees would be the same for the older children. Transportation to the program would be the responsibility of the parent or guardian, Rogers said. Interested parents are being asked to contact the Hastings Public School office.

Sr. Black Hornets soar

By Bill Freeman

Sports - Peterborough - The Norwood Senior Black Tykes did something the Toronto Maple Leafs last did nearly 50 years ago, hoist a mini Stanley Cup after capturing a thrilling 5 - 4 championship win over the Otonabee Wolves #1 squad at the Peterborough Tyke Showdown at the Memorial Centre. The victory gave them the Seven Hills Development Stanley Cup and a surprising invitation to play a fourth game that day against the elite Brock Wild, a select team of sevenyear-olds, in the Service Master Championship. No other team in any division played four

games. The Hornets played in the 11-team senior division of a tourney that also included junior tykes and Silver Stick for seven-year-olds. It was a magical ride for Norwood who opened with a 6 5 win over the Otonabee White Wolves minus goalie Ethan Harding who was flu-bound. Sheldon Bolton strapped on the pads at the Kinsmen Centre for the Hornets. Scoring twice was Blake Graham with singles to Gavin Small, Noah Main, Graydon Walst and Wyatt Sucee. Lilianna Sedgwick added two assists. Main earned MVP honours for

his best two-way game of the year. Norwood then faced the Douro Dukes at the Memorial Centre and with Harding still in sick bay Bolton was between the pipes for the team’s 8 - 0 win, their first shutout of the season. Dylan Kelly opened the scoring with his first goal of the year. Also scoring were Graham (2), Small, Sucee, Main, Cameron Porter and Owen Wilford who led an end-to-end rush for his first goal of the season. Picking up assists were Porter (2), Main (2), Sedgwick (2), Small, Graham, Sucee, Kelly and Cole Martin. Graydon Walst was MVP for his tight checking and smooth transition game. In the championship, the Hornets took on a team that had beaten them 5 - 1 earlier in the season. Ethan Harding was back between the pipes and made some big time saves to help the Hornets to victory. Norwood trailed 2 0, 3 - 1 and 4 - 2 but never gave up. Small led the team with a championship hat trick, with Graham picking up a goal and three assists and Porter and Sedgwick adding single helpers. The game was a thriller; deadlocked at 4 - 4, and with 30 seconds left, Main grabbed the puck and rushed the length of the Memorial Centre finishing off the play with the winning goal. After a mini celebration on the ice, the Hornets learned they would play another game against the Wild. The Hornets coaching staff knew how good Brock was but kept that information from their players so they wouldn’t use that as an excuse. Brock jumped out to an early 6 - 0 lead and showed what an elite team of sevenyear-olds can do with the puck, something Peter Horachek and the Toronto Maple Leafs would have learned from. The Hornets absorbed the onslaught then made some defensive adjustments led by Sadie Turcotte and Leah Fleming. Suddenly the team started to get some breakaway openings and eventually notched a goal by Sucee. But for the first six minutes, the two teams played a 1 - 1 hockey game. Harding was the game’s MVP in shutting down the high-octane Wild. “The Hornets never gave up trying, battling hard to the last buzzer against a team that a tournament convenor said was accidently placed in the wrong division,” coach Ryan Sedgwick said.

Rebels’ loss breaks tie for second place in Empire B league By John Campbell

Sports - Campbellford - The Campbellford Rebels twice gave up the lead and then let the visiting Napanee Raiders claim two crucial points with a 5 - 3 win Saturday night. The Raiders’ road victory broke a tie between the two teams for second place in the Empire B Junior C Hockey League. The Raiders (21-15-1) now lead 43 - 41 in points but the Rebels (20-15-1) hold a game in hand with four matches remaining in their regular season. However, two of them are against the Port Hope Panthers who sit high atop the league with 57 points. Campbellford staked a 2 - 0 first-period lead Saturday on a pair of power-play goals by Jon Samis and Colin Doyle. After the visitors evened the score in the first six minutes of the second period, Samis restored the Rebels’ lead with his second goal and third point of the evening at 16:40. Jeremiah Doherty drew assists on

PET

both of his markers. The Raiders tied it early in the third and went ahead at 17:18 on Austin Boulard’s second of the game. After Napanee added an empty net goal, Doherty had a chance to pull his team closer with a penalty shot at 19:40 but couldn’t beat Tomo Mikuljan, who stopped 28 of Campbellford’s 31 shots. Cole Mahoney faced 28 shots in the Campbellford net. The Rebels’ game against the Pirates in Picton January 29 was cancelled because of a snowstorm. Campbellford plays host to the Amherstview Jets this Saturday at 7:30 p.m. The Jets slipped past the Pirates into the fourth and final

play-off spot by downing Picton 6 - 2 at home Saturday With four games remaining, Doherty has a shot of overtaking Picton’s Brian Bunnett for top scorer in the league. Bunnett has 12 goals and 40 assists for 52 points, while Doherty has fired in 31 goals and added 18 assists for 49 points, in two fewer games. Doyle ranks fourth in league scoring, with 16 goals and 29 assists. The Rebels will hold its first skate-a-thon March 7, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. to raise money in support of Campbellford Memorial Hospital. An iPad Mini and other great prizes are being offered. Pledge sheets are available at the arena and all convenience stores in town.

Barb Reynolds, Sue Cuddy, and Pat Marett, serve Joe and Bev Maloney at the Marmora United Church SnoFest Luncheon. The menu included homemade ham dinner with scalloped potatoes, baked brown beans, tea, coffee, juice and desserts.

Kelli Curtis is seen at the SnoFest Official Souvenir/Merchandise Table at the Marmora Arena during the Artisans and Food Fair held at Sno Fest, Saturday, January 31. Like many area residents, Kelli not only volunteers with SnoFest, but is also the 2015 president of the Marmora Fair Board. Merchandise available was of top quality, with warm toques, post and note cards, as well as souvenir glasses. Children’s clown “Circus Jonathan” spent the day entertaining all ages with various accessories. The balloon characters he provided to the children could be seen all over the grounds. Jonathan said he had just finished a TV commercial for a car manufacturer, and has performed as the court jester at Casa Loma. He hopes to come to the Marmora Fair as well this year.

Two of the lead dogs at the Marmora SnoFest Races wait eagerly to start their six-mile six-dog run on Saturday, January 31. The 37th annual winter celebration was officially opened by MP Daryl Kramp, MPP Todd Smith, Marmora and Lake Deputy-reeve Linda Bracken, and Marmora SnoFest Chair Jen Bennett, at the Friday night Talent Show.

Chainsaw Woodcarver Levi Caya, of Campbellford, was accompanied at this year’s SnoFest by Kyle Conlon, a carver from Peterborough, originally from England. Kyle was inspired to start chainsaw carving by the work and encouragement of Levi and other carvers in the area. These are some of his works on display. To see more of Levi’s incredible work, check out his Facebook Page at <https://www.facebook.com/levi.caya>.

ning teams), to the most junior of the Little Nippers, it was obvious that all of those who handled the dogs do so from a caring relationship with their animals. Dog teams varied in experience and appearance, but in all cases, the drivers, and their assistant handlers were patient as the teams were arranged and straightened out at the start line. Dogs jumped excitedly out of line, mostly over their running partners, all the while eagerly straining to be away down the trail. On their return from the distance runs, dogs were certainly somewhat winded, and ready to head to their home spot, but all looked exhilarated, and still quite happy to be there at the races. After all the distance runs, including the skijoring, it was the turn of the Little Nippers, to run the short course, with handlers watching over both the little drivers (helmets on!) and their single sled dog. Dogs were eager in this event, and were willing to help the children enjoy what was in many cases, the child’s very first sled dog run. Most children sported smiles or were set in concentration as their determination to stay on the runners and “direct” the dogs brought success. One little guy burst into tears when the sled stopped, although it wasn’t apparent whether his tears were the result of discomfort, or the end of his run. His dog turned in concern at the sound of crying. Although they are fierce competitors in their events, it would seem that many of the dogs are good pets as well. The many associated events on Saturday included the ever popular Circus Jonathan, Levi Caya, chainsaw wood carver, the Marmora Boy Scouts fun children’s events, a pony ride and zorba ball experience, and the hockey tournament. The artisans and specialty foods fair upstairs at the arena featured incredible items from Marmora and surrounding areas. Artists, writers, soapmakers were in attendance. A variety of hand-crafted wood products, health and beauty products, specialty sewing and knitting items, jewellery, stoneware were available. The SnoFest Committee had a wonderful selection of top quality memorabilia at reasonable prices The Marmora SnoFest Committee is hoping to hear from all 20 of the $100 SnoFest Button winners. The button numbers were drawn on January 31 at the SnoFest Afterparty at Bunkers Bistro & Grill. We are still looking for all the winners. If you have a winning button please contact us to make arrangements for your $100 prize. Email <snofest.coordinator@gmail.com> or <snofest.chair@gmail.com>. The winning numbers are (last three digits): 950, 779, 795, 731, 666, 553, 797, 270, 005, 831.

LIFESTYLES

The Good Earth: Lifestyles - Gentle Reader, I collect ideas for columns every day and they accumulate in various places: a file on the computer; a pile of paper scraps strewn on the desk or balanced on the guitar stool; and scattered over much of the floor. Every now and then, I try to clear off one of those surfaces by cobbling up a column compiled of those odds and sods. Here is the first one for 2015.

Vol9 No6 Odds & Sods 1

O&S 1 Bees and Neonics The Globe and Mail, Saturday, January 31, 2015, published “An Open Letter to Ontarians: Getting the Facts Straight on Honey Bees.” A coalition representing 28,000 farm families has paid for this letter. The Ontario government is planning to restrict and/or ban a certain group of pesticides— neonicotinoids, aka neonics—for

agricultural use. The primary concern is that honey bees may be adversely affected and that neonics play a major role in colony collapse. A quick review of literature and studies on the Internet presented the same positional polarities as when the use of pesticides for cosmetic purposes was being discussed. It is very easy to dismiss “biased” studies, e.g. those published by the evil

and nefarious manufacturers and distributors of the products in question and, equally, those published by left-wing fanatical eco-nuts. Hopefully, when folks get together those stereotypical viewpoints will be left out in the street and not taken into the meeting room. It appears that Health Canada and Statistics Canada have numbers that conflict with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, Food and Rural Affairs in terms of numbers of bee colonies. There is also a statement, in this letter, that 72 per cent of the complaints sent to Health Canada were from only three per cent of the 3,262 beekeepers. What does that tell me, Gentle Reader? It actually tells me very little. I don’t know how many beekeepers there actually are in the province; I don’t know the nature of those complaints; I don’t know the

nature of the other 28 per cent of the complaints; I don’t know the timing of these complaints: e.g. early spring, late summer; I don’t know the weather conditions; nor, do I know from which geographical areas these complaints originated. So, GR, for me to sound off on this matter would be imprudent and unfair to both sides. And that is the point of this particular O&S. Numbers and statistics, by themselves, can be misleading. For example, a recent study from a major university reported that bees exposed to neonics suffered very high mortality rates. A rebuttal by the neonics manufacturer noted that the bees had been exposed to ten times the recommended rates. Who do you believe? Was your mind changed based on who did the reporting or the results reported? Would you be more inclined to look for an unbiased study? My suggestion is that you some more research. In your computer’s search engine type “Health Canada honey bees” You will find a very clear and comprehensive evolution of the issue over the past few years. For an excellent article, you can refer to Eric Atkins’ piece in the July 6, 2014 issue of The Globe and Mail, Pesticide linked to Bee Deaths to be Restricted in Ontario. O&S2 I Was There IV, Squash Tournament The Upper Canada Chapter of Landscape Ontario holds an annual challenge squash tournament that is open to all actively involved members of the landscape industry, from suppliers to installers and even designers. (Friends, spouses, relatives don’t necessarily qualify.) Lots of fun, good folks to hang out with, all skill levels will be equally challenged, and a fairly decent prize table. It will

Dan Clost be held on February 17 in Trenton; please contact me for more details O&S3 Plant Seeds Now GR, now’s the time to get busy collecting up all your materials for planting seeds. Did you know it’s getting late in the season if you were thinking of planting pelargoniums (geraniums) and fibrous begonia? For new seed starters here are some tips that aren’t on the packets. Seeds don’t need light to germinate, they like heat. That wee space over the top of your refrigerator is an excellent place for a flat. Pay attention to the growth rates listed on the packet (for detailed explanations you can search for my columns in the archives of this newspaper). Now is not the time for planting all seeds; if you plant too soon you might have tall spindly floppy plants. Air movement is very important in the battle to reduce moulds and other moisture related issues, so think about a small fan. O&S4 Canada Blooms Connon Nurseries is taking bookings for their bus trips to Canada Blooms in March; check their website or call the store for info. Hort clubs and other groups can always call their local coach lines and see if they can hire their own bus; you might be surprised at how cost effective it is. (As per usual, any group that is offering a trip, please drop me a line and I’ll mention it in the column.)


Coyote Quest: Preliminary findings from the coyote study Events – Ivanhoe - Coyote Quest is the second in the 2015 Winter Speaker Series hosted by the Hastings Stewardship Council and sponsored by the Hastings Prince Edward Land Trust. Join Tyler Wheeldon in Ivanhoe for a presentation on his recent coyote research. Tyler Wheeldon is a PhD candidate at Trent University. His presentation will summarize the preliminary findings from a three-year coyote study conducted in Prince Edward County. Coyotes in this area have been highly controversial, primarily due to concerns regarding predation on livestock. Tyler will explain various aspects of coyote biology, including social organization, territory sizes, movements (includes

animations), activity patterns, survival and reproduction. Coyote diet, genetics and morphology will also be discussed, adding to the understanding of this fascinating animal. The current PhD research of Tyler Wheeldon focuses on the demographic response of eastern coyotes to human exploitation and the role of dispersal in maintaining harvested populations. The presentation will attempt to address the issue of why coyote populations persist despite intensive harvest by humans. The coyote is one of nature’s most adaptive species, able to thrive in different settings and survive on many diets. This is evident from the coyote’s adaptation to the

changing North American landscape. Coyote Quest: Preliminary Findings from the Coyote Study in Prince Edward County is on Thursday, February 12, from 7 to 9 p.m. at Huntingdon Veterans Community Hall at 11379 Highway 62 in Ivanhoe, Ontario, just north of the Ivanhoe cheese factory. An entrance fee of $5 (or a donation) will help cover costs; children are free. Refreshments will be provided. The Hastings Stewardship Council promotes a healthy and sustainable environment that contributes to the viability of agricultural and natural resources in Hastings County. For more information, please contact Matt Caruana at 613-391-9034 or <info@hastingsstewardship.ca>.

Ontario Lung Association launches The Will Campaign with a heavy burden. If you haven’t prepared a will or power of attorney yet, the Ontario Lung Association Will Campaign is here to help. Participating lawyers donate their time to prepare wills and powers of attorney. Clients pay $100 for a will and $50 for each power of attorney, with all proceeds going to help Ontarians with lung disease or to fund lifesaving lung research. Clients can find a participating lawyer by contacting their local Ontario Lung Association office or by going to <on.lung.ca/TheWillCampaign>. Giroux says that having a power of attorney is often just as important as a will, especially for young people.

“Imagine a young person saving for their first home, has bills to pay and a great credit rating,” she says. “A health issue might put them in hospital and they will be unable to manage their affairs. If they have a power of attorney the named attorney can manage the incapacitated person’s affairs. Otherwise, they could find themselves with unpaid bills, their credit rating going down the drain along with dreams of purchasing a home the next year.” The Will Campaign’s volunteer lawyers see value in giving to The Lung Association but also in giving their clients peace of mind. “When I went to prepare my will I

wasn’t sure what to expect,” says Leslie Olsen, who participated in the Will Campaign along with her daughter. “Our lawyer asked all the right questions to guide us through the process. It was very easy and comfortable. I also love the fact that I am giving a gift to The Lung Association.” When preparing your will consider including a charitable gift, known as a bequest. This can be a legacy gift that also gives your estate a tax benefit. A bequest can provide a 100 per cent tax receipt up to the amount of the net income in the year of death. There are various ways to include a bequest: a set amount, a percentage or a residual which gives a percentage of the

estate after all other disbursements. A donor can even name a charity should none of their other beneficiaries be alive to receive the inheritance. “I am so proud that I can donate my professional services to The Lung Association in a way that I can fit it into my busy schedule,” says Giroux. “I have asthma myself and I think many of us know someone, if not ourselves, who struggles with lung disease.” To volunteer your legal services or to find a lawyer in your region, call Lola McMurter at The Lung Association at 613969-0323 or email <thewillcampaign@ on.lung.ca>.

News - A recent survey found that more than half of Canadian adults do not have a signed will. Many people believe they don’t need a will until they have children or significant assets but that is not the case, says Melanie Giroux, barrister, solicitor, notary public and volunteer for the Ontario Lung Association Will Campaign. “When you reach the age of majority, that is the right time to prepare a will,” she says. Having a will is vital because it is the legal document that designates a person, the estate trustee, also known as the executor, to take over management of your estate and related matters when you die. People who die without a will leave their loved ones

A visit to Amsterdam’s Anne Frank House

By John M. Smith

Lifestyles - One of the many plays I’ve enjoyed at Belleville’s Pinnacle Playhouse was a production of The Diary of Anne Frank, which told the story of a young Jewish girl who hid with her family in the sealed-off upstairs annex of her father’s office building in Amsterdam during the Nazi occupation of the Netherlands in World War II. Therefore, on my last visit to Amsterdam, I decided to check out this house for myself. After all, it’s now a museum and a very popular tourist attraction. The Anne Frank House is located on the Prinsengracht canal in Amsterdam, and it’s easy to find, for there always seems to be a long lineup of visitors waiting a turn to tour this famous hiding place and to learn about the life and times of Anne Frank herself. Simply look for that long line. The museum, which opened in 1960, also serves to feature special temporary exhibits and to highlight other examples of worldwide persecution and discrimination. As I toured the interior of this old house, I found many of Anne’s quotations from her diary were now displayed on the walls, and there were many photos and film clips depicting her unusual existence. There was a specific route to follow through the house, for it was crowded, and no one was

allowed to take photos. However, the journey was certainly educational and informative, and I passed by the reconstructed movable bookcase that had covered the entrance to the annex/hiding place. I also passed the storeroom, where spices and other supplies were kept, and the communal bathroom that had to be used as little as possible during the day, for the warehouse workers were

downstairs then and not aware of the existence of the people in hiding just above them. Anne talked about this in her diary: “No running water, no flushing toilets, no walking around, no noise whatsoever.” I also passed by the Academy Award that Shelley Winters won back in 1959 for her portrayal of Mrs. Van Daan in the film version of The Diary of Anne Frank. She vowed to give this

Oscar to the museum, and she did. It now sits, prominently, in a glass case. Anne Frank had received her diary as a gift on her 13th birthday, and she wrote in it while she was in hiding, for more than two years. The Frank family (parents Otto and Edith and children Anne and Margot) went into their isolated existence here on July 6, 1942. Four more people soon joined them: Hermann van Pels, his wife Auguste, their son Peter, and Fritz Pfeffer, a close acquaintance of the Frank family. Although Otto went to work regularly, the others had to remain indoors at all times, with

the curtains closed so that no neighbour detected them. Anne wrote in 1942: “During the day our curtains can’t be opened, not even an inch.” Anne confessed, in her diary, in December, 1943, that she found it very difficult to be cooped up all the time: “I like to ride a bike, dance, whistle, look at the world, feel young and know that I’m free.” She also wrote, in 1944, that “One day this terrible war will be over. The time will come when we’ll be people again and not just Jews!” As you probably already know, the people hiding in this house were eventually found,

arrested, and deported to concentration camps. All but Otto died. After the war ended, Otto returned to Amsterdam, where he was given Anne’s diary and some other personal effects that had been “rescued” by two of his office staff (Miep Gies and Bep Voskuijl) who had taken personal risks to help hide and care for these families and gather up this memorabilia. After learning of the death of his wife and daughters, Otto eventually decided to find a publisher for Anne’s diary and to dedicate the rest of his life to combatting discrimination and prejudice. He stated: “We cannot change what happened anymore. The only thing we can do is learn from the past and to realize what discrimination and persecution of innocent people means.” Anne’s life was, indeed, short and tragic. She was born in Frankfurt, Germany, on June 12, 1929, and I found a small block on the old Jewish cemetery wall there that has her name upon it, a reminder that she was one of the more than 10,000 Jewish people killed from the Frankfurt area alone. When Hitler came to power in 1933 and established an anti-Jewish regime, the Frank family moved to Amsterdam, where Otto started a couple of businesses (selling a gelling agent for making jams and spice mixes for meat). After Germany occupied the Netherlands and anti-Jewish measures increased there, the family decided to go into hiding. After the young teen endured her “captivity” in her house, she was then taken, by force, to a concentration camp, where she died of typhus before reaching her 16th birthday. However, her diary has proved inspirational to many others, and the popularity of the Anne Frank House is her ongoing legacy.


ENTERTAINMENT

Touring film festival fundraiser coming to Aron Theatre News - Campbellford Media reports about highprofile personalities such as former CBC radio host Jian Ghomeshi facing charges of sexual assault and TV’s comedian dad Bill Cosby plagued by sexual abuse allegations are bringing these issues to the forefront. That is the opinion of Karen Basciano, public education and special events co-ordinator with the Kawartha Sexual Assault Centre in Peterborough who said, “As we know since the beginning of time this stuff has been kept a secret and now people are being empowered to come forward.” And to raise money the centre will be hosting LUNAFEST, a film festival dedicated to promoting awareness about women’s issues, highlighting women filmmakers, and bringing women together in their communities. The film will be shown at the Aron Theatre. “This unique film festival highlights women as leaders in society, illustrated through nine short films by women filmmakers,” explained Basciano. LUNAFEST films range from animation to fictional drama, and cover topics such as women’s health, motherhood, body image, aging, cultural diversity and breaking barriers. “Someone from our centre will introduce this particular film and talk about our organization,” Basciano said. She will be there too. All proceeds from LUNAFEST will benefit the Breast Cancer Fund and Kawartha Sexual Assault Centre. “The funds will go to the centre’s programs such as our crisis support line, oneon-one counselling, support groups and public educa-

tion,” said Basciano. LUNAFEST is a One Billion Rising event. According to the One Billion Rising website, the campaign, a mass action to end violence against women, was launched on Valentine’s Day 2012, began as a call to action based on the staggering statistic that one in three women on the planet will be beaten or raped during her lifetime. Added to those statistics are those noted on the Kawartha centre’s website: “conservative statistics document that one in two girls and one in five boys will be sexually assaulted at some time in their lives.” “Caseloads are increasing,” said Basciano, who noted that the Gomeshi and Cosby reports may be triggering the issue of sexual assault and abuse and be one of the reasons for the increase. The Kawartha centre is one of only four in Ontario that received special funding for a needs assessment study to learn more about the pathway of healing for women and girls who have experienced sexual violence. The centre’s research team would like to hear community ideas for sexual violence prevention in the region it covers which includes Northumberland, Peterborough, Kawartha Lakes and Haliburton. “Focus groups are being used to find out what the needs assessments are,” noted Basciano and the centre would like to speak to survivors of sexual violence, who have identified as female at some point in their life, to “have their say” about their needs in accessing community services in the response and prevention of sexual violence.

Last week posters were distributed throughout Trent Hills to promote LUNAFEST, a fundraiser being hosted by the Kawartha Sexual Assault Centre at the Aron Theatre. Last week several community members volunteered to put up posters: from left, Theresa Miller, president of St. Mary’s Catholic Women’s League; Donna Desjardins, Community Living Campbellford/Brighton; Karen Basciano of the centre; Dawn Lee, Community Living; and Earl St.-Jean, vice-president of the Aron Theatre. “It’s part of our philosophy to support inclusive initiatives in the Trent Hills community,” said Lee.

LUNAFEST is just one more way of reaching out to the communities and raising money. Created and funded by LUNA, The Whole Nutrition Bar for Women, has raised over $656,000 for the Breast Cancer Fund and over $1,250,000 for other

women’s non-profit organizations. The film will be shown on Saturday, February 14, at 2 p.m. Tickets are available at the theatre and Kerr’s Corner Books in downtown Campbellford. General admission is $20. Students and seniors, $12.

The Warning Signs

Being able to recognize the warning signs of heart attack and stroke could save your life. Every minute counts during the onset of a heart attack or stroke—the faster you receive medical treatment, the more likely you are to survive and the better your chances of a more complete recovery. Women often experience the same symptoms as men do, but women and men don’t respond to a heart attack in the same ways and women often describe their symptoms differently than men. Women are less likely to believe they’re having a heart attack, and they are more likely to put off seeking treatment.

Heart Attack

Although symptoms are generally the same for men and women, women can sometimes experience symptoms that are less deďŹ nite, such as chest discomfort rather than pain.

Jazz sensation to make Canadian debut at Opening Gala

Entertainment - Belleville It’s been a whirlwind journey for Justin Kauflin, a 28-year-old jazz pianist who lost his sight at the age of 11. From a decade of classical violin and piano training, Justin made the move to jazz piano at the Governor’s School For Performing Arts, and has been taking the jazz world by storm ever since. The protégé of jazz luminary Clark Terry, both performers star in the breakout documentary Keep on Keepin’ On. The film, which recently won the Cinema Eye Honors Audience

Choice Award, will screen at 7 p.m. on Friday, February 27, at The Empire Theatre for Belleville Downtown DocFest’s Opening Gala, followed by Justin’s first performance on Canadian soil. The Opening Gala, sponsored by Pretsell Davies Lawyers, has grown exponentially each year with the combination of once-ina-lifetime musical performances complementing featured films on the opening night. This year will prove to be bigger and better once again, organizers say, with DocFest’s receipt

of additional funding from The Ontario Arts Council. The OAC support will allow DocFest to offer a unique workshop following a school screening of the film where Justin will work one-onone with local high school jazz musicians.
 It bears mentioning that the audience will contain the vestiges of jazz legends left, right and centre: Celine Peterson, goddaughter of Clark Terry and daughter of Canadian jazz pianist Oscar Peterson, will also join the festivities in Belleville as a guest of

DocFest. She will assist with a CD launch for Justin’s breakout album, Dedication. “This launch is another significant and exciting development that will be part of our Opening Gala entertainment,” says Gary

Magwood, DocFest’s Chair. With performances at Jazz a Vienne, Montreaux Jazz Festival and honours such as VEER magazine’s Jazz Artist of the Year, the past year and a half has been a kickoff for Justin in what is expected to be

a much-lauded career in the jazz world. The DocFest Committee is thrilled and honoured that he is adding Belleville to the roster as his first Canadian performance, a high profile event for the city.

Calwell curlers off to slow start at national competition Sports - The Quinte Curling Club team has some work ahead of it at the Canadian Junior Championships in Corner Brook, Nfld. this week. The team, which feature’s Belleville twin brothers Mac and Morgan Calwell, started the men’s tournament winning two of its first five games. As of Monday, team Ontario was in fourth place among seven teams in the Pool A standings. The Calwells, and their fellow team members Kurt Armstong and Matt Pretty, started the tour-

nament with a 16 - 3 win over Nunavut on Saturday, but then lost to the host Newfoundland & Labrador team in the evening draw. On Sunday they lost 6 - 4 to British Columbia and then 11 - 6 to Manitoba. However, on Monday morning they rebounded with an 11 - 6 win over Nova Scotia. Round-robin play continues until Friday and playoffs will take place Saturday and Sunday. To follow the tournament, visit <http://www.curling. ca/2015juniors-en>

Love MaryLou, Karen & Dan, Ron & Bonnie, Bev & families.

MOORE, Bryon April 2, 1958 - February 6, 2012 We thought of you with love today But that is nothing new, We thought about you yesterday And days before that too, We think of you in silence We often speak your name, All we have is memories And your picture in a frame, Your memory is our keepsake And which we will never part, God has you in his keeping We have you in our hearts. A million times we’ve wanted you A million times we’ve cried, If love could only have saved you You never would have died. It broke our hearts to lose you But you didn’t go alone, For a part of us went with you, The day God called you home. Lovingly remembered, Mom, Fernando, JoAnne & Bill, Meghan, Mark, Rob, Tessa,
