REGIONAL NEWSConnected to your communityTraining centre offers personalized education solutions for adultsEMC Business – The help isthere, but those who need it donot know where to find us orknow that we exist. That’s oftenthe story we hear by people whohave search for the Adult Learning& Training Centre (ALTC)and have found it, tucked awayin the back corner of 52 AbbottSt. North in Smiths Falls.The ALTC offers upgradingin basic literacy and essentialskills. Reading, writing, mathand computer skills, which mostof us take for granted, are usedin every day life and at work.Over 40 per cent of the LanarkCounty and Smiths Falls populationhave a learning disabilityor do not have the confidence tomove forward.Our focus is on one-on-onetutoring and small group formats.Each qualified individualreceives a learner plan based ontheir short and long-term goals,modifying that plan as eachmilestone is reached and thetransition towards work, furthereducation and training or independencehas been achieved.We have several job specificprograms for people wanting tojoin or re-enter the workforcein fields such as clerical, truckdriving, public works, childcareand landscaping. As a resultof economic downturn, manyolder workers (55 and up) areattempting to re-enter the workforce. Some of these job relatedprograms would greatly benefitthese workers with increased essentialskills upgrading.Statistics show that retail isthe main source of employmentin Lanark County. ALTC has curriculafor customer service, retailand hospitality, and recently developeda Cash Register BasicsProgram. Three actual registersare set up at the centre and twoprograms are currently on thego. Two-hour sessions run forsix weeks and provides hands onand activity training. Also part ofour enhanced programs are basiccomputer, family literacy andreading to eating.With individualized learnerprograms, our hours of study areflexible. Learners can come inone day a week, two half-days orfive full days, but there has to bea commitment in order to makethat connection between literacyand real life tasks to create lifelonglearning. We can only helpthose who are ready and eager towant to help themselves.Funding for our centre andoutreach programs throughoutthe county comes from the Ministryof Training, Colleges andUniversities, and part of EmploymentOntario’s Employmentand Training Network.Funding is also received fromthe United Way, also under financialstress owing to the difficulteconomic times. ALTC has justreceived one time funding fromGreen Shield, an organizationthat reaches out to assist a widerange of not-for-profit organizationsin need of support. Withthis support we were able to purchasea SMART board to createand use learning activities alongwith lesson plans. The funds willalso be used to help create, implementand facilitate our Readingto Eating Program and a MondayManagement curriculum.Any adult from age 19 to 65plus are welcome to come in andhave their skills and knowledgereviewed and work towards theinteraction of those skills andknowledge to reflect their needs,goals and interests. Our servicerequests are not just basedon employment goals. It can beanyone looking to learn how tofind and use information, communicateideas and information,understand and use numbers,use digital technology, managelearning and engage with others.Once a learner’s goal is reachedor their needs are met, they moveon to complete the next achievementin their life where theirlearning skills can be transferredto activities in work, family andthe community.Our move from Perth toSmiths Falls has been very beneficial.The 52 Abbott St. Northbuilding houses other services inwhich we partner with. OnTrac(employment services), New Directions(helping mature workersreturn to work) and OntarioWorks (financial assistance) partnerwith us by way of referralsand sharing programs amongstclients and learners. It is a onestopshopping for earning andlearning.Volunteers are the base androck of our programs at ALTC.Learners are matched to tutorswho help train in other parts ofthe county because as we allknow, transportation is a hugebarrier when there are no meansof getting from point A to B, sowe go to learners in their owncommunity. We train our volunteersby making them aware ofthe different learning difficulties,LEACOCKFrom page 3she remarked. “I’ve been toChina, Africa, all over Europeand even Iceland.”One of her favourite placesin the world is Costa Rica,which she used to travel toeach year, but also lovedspending time in Alaska andHawaii and had a wonderfulexperience while visiting Israelin 1995.She has dozens and dozensof photo albums she’scompiled from her trips andeven collected spoons anddolls from around the globe.While she never made it tothe different characteristics ofour adult learners and the skillsneeded to provide the necessarysupport for success.Everyone comes here for thesame reason – to get the helpthey need to improve their livesin one way or another.

REGIONAL NEWSConnected to your communityDeathtrap at Full Circle Theatre: <strong>Performance</strong>s and tech combine for real entertainmentEMC Entertainment – A thunderstorm rages outside an attractive Colonialhome while, inside, a desperatefight can be seen in flashes of lightning.Thunder rolls and weapons flash inthe glare of the lightning bolts. Audiencemembers gasp and occasionallyscream – then find an opportunity tolaugh.What’s going on? Not the latestHollywood blockbuster, but BarnDoorProductions’ thriller Deathtrap, runningThursday through Sunday this week atthe Full Circle Theatre in Perth.The play is a combination of greatonstage performances, an experiencedcompany, and some truly impressivetechnical excitement that adds up to athoroughly entertaining two hours oftheatre.It starts with Ira Levin’s great script.Deathtrap is a twisting, turning playthat is about itself – every moment thathappens in the play is described by thecharacters in the play, often before ithappens, yet Levin fills every momentwith intense excitement. Who will dowhat – and when? And to whom?Deathtrap doesn’t follow a straightpath through its story, but twists anddoubles back and crosses over itself.Even so, whenever the next plot momentis revealed, the audience immediately,and joyously, sees how they’vebeen misled by the playwright.The next element is a solid and experiencedcompany, turning in the kind of“take it for granted” professional-levelperformances that people have come toexpect from Perth’s original communitytheatre. Kristy Angel brings an interpretationto the difficult role of Myrathat many miss when playing the role:And then the strangling! Aspiring playwright Clifford(Chris Angel) acts out his ideas for a new thriller,Deathtrap, to the non-amusement of veteran playwrightSidney Bruhl (David Bird) in a scene from IraMyra can appear to be one-dimensionaland flat, but Kristy’s performances isfar from that.Janice Jacklin as psychic Helga TenDorp is funny and bizarre and unpredictableas she pops up at unexpectedand inconvenient (for the bad guy) moments.Chris Angel is likeable and friendlyand deadly as Clifford, a young wouldbeplaywright lured into the Deathtrapwith fatal results – although for whom,we are not saying. Angel has a veryphysical role, involving some spectacularfalls and more, as well as the needSubmitted photoLevin’s Deathtrap. The thriller runs at the Full CircleTheatre, 26 Craig Street, Perth, Thursday throughSunday this week.to handle Levin’s intricate dialogue ina character of extremes.Onstage for more than 90 per cent ofthe show, David Bird is Sidney Bruhl,a possibly-washed up writer of thrillerswho finds an opportunity to acquirea brilliant new script that will restorefortunes and reputation for him - all itwill take is murder. Bird is alternatelyfunny and frightening; a witty Broadwayplaywright one moment, jokingthat the new thriller is so good that “agifted director couldn’t hurt it” (drawinga big laugh from an actual gifteddirector on opening night!) and turningcold-blooded killer the next. “What’sthe point of owning a mace,” he says,pointing to a nasty-looking medievalweapon on the wall, “if you don’t useit once in a while?”Bird’s role, too, requires some extremephysical action that is bothfrightening and impressive.The show moves like lightning,stepping from scene to scene in momentsand flying through Levin’s wittyand twisting script in just on two hours,including an intermission. To achievethat pace, with the clarity that the showhas, is the result of long experience, onthe part of both cast and director, DavidJacklin.The final element is the technicalachievement of the production. Froma set that depicts a New England Colonialhome to working antique weaponsto a number of mood-setting and frightinducingspecial effects, BarnDoor Productionsis drawing on decades of pastexperience and taking full advantageof newly upgraded lighting facilitiesin the Full Circle Theatre (along withthe facility’s existing surround-soundaudio system) to support and enhancethe production, moving it a large stepabove the run-of-the-mill and well intothe realm of the long-time memorable.Deathtrap is the longest-runningthriller in Broadway history, but itwon’t stay around much longer inPerth.

A variety ofLETTER TO THE EDITORWhere does Reid stand on wasteful mailings?DEAR EDITOR:Word is out that Conservatives plan to use your tax dollars tomail their juvenile propaganda against Justin Trudeau to yourhome. Will Lanark, Frontenac, Lennox and Addington MP ScottReid sink to that level?The answer is in the mail. By now you’ve probably seen theTV commercials. In them, the Conservatives use out-of-contextfabrications and falsehoods to try to smear the new Liberal leader.Liberals instead are responding with a positive campaign thatintroduces Canadians to the real Justin Trudeau, focused on hisplans to fight for middle-class families and for all those who areworking so hard to join the middle-class. But Conservatives planto use their Parliamentary mailing and printing privileges to puttheir ugly message in taxpayer-funded pamphlets to be distributedacross the country.This is a gross misuse of tax dollars that should be going towardconstructive public discussion of public issues, not partisan characterassassination. At least 19 Conservative backbenchers havehad the courage to reject this wasteful and dishonest abuse. Theysay it’s beneath their standards.But what about your MP? Mr. Reid has a choice—he can chooseto say no to Stephen Harper and refuse to clutter your mailboxwith this abusive material, or knuckle under. Which will it be?Ralph Goodale MPDeputy Leader of the Liberal Party of CanadaCOMMENTARYHave a safe summeron the waterEMC Editorial – June 21 marks the first day of summerand with it comes the season that everyone looksforward to: lazy weekends at the cottage, barbecues onthe patio and of course, time spent on the water.The Ontario Provincial Police are encouraging allboaters and paddlers to stay safe out on the waterwaysthis summer. They police 94,000 square kilometres ofOntario’s waterways. Last year, 20 fatal boating incidentsoccurred in Ontario where 22 people lost theirlives. Eighteen of those 22 were not wearing lifejackets.Before embarking on an outing by boat, it’s importantto remember to ensure there are enough lifejacketsor personal flotation devices for each person comingon board. Even those who consider themselves goodswimmers can encounter a scary situation.Alcohol consumption accounted for seven of the 22boating deaths last year. If you are too intoxicated toget behind the wheel of a car, the same goes for boats.The laws that govern Ontario’s waterways are the sameas those travelling the roads.It’s also a good idea to properly familiarize yourselfwith the boat you are operating. Make sure it has beenproperly maintained. Also remember that by law, anyoneoperating a motorized water vessel must have avalid pleasure craft operating card.Use proper judgment and safe practices to ensure youand your family avoid a tragedy out there this summer.For more information about safe boating regulations,visit the Canadian Safe Boating Council website www.csbc.ca.Mother always put used flour bags to good useEMC Lifestyle – Going into Renfrewto the grist mill with Mother wasalways a treat for me. I marvelled athow she bartered for a good price on theflour bags, and how she always seemedto come out with a good bargain.The bags were piled willy-nilly in aheap in a corner and if we went early ona Saturday morning, before too manypeople beat us to it, the selection was atits best. Mother would take off one at atime, examine it closely, and either tossit aside, or put it in a pile by me. Myjob was to take the bag and fold it intoa square so that it, with the others shepicked, would fit nicely in the clotheshamper we brought from the farm.There would be no Saturday-nighthouse party that week! My sister Audrey,Mother and I would spend theevening getting the bags ready for theMonday washing. There would beseams to rip out, and those that neededit were cut open with the scissors sothat they would lay flat.Of course, they still carried the remnantsof the flour they once held, andby the time we had worked our waythrough the laundry basket of bags, wewere covered from head to toe. Evenour hair was flecked with flour. Butsince it was Saturday night anyway,our weekly bath and head wash wouldtake care of that.Before they could be made useof, the flour bags had to be washedtwice. On Monday morning, they werewashed separate from the rest of thelaundry, and hung over the fence todry. That washing was to get rid of theflour dust.The next stage was one I detested,and I tried to keep my distance. Motherbought big glass bottles of Javel waterfrom Briscoes General Store. Using abig square tub, the bags were soakedfor the better part of a day in a mixtureof water and Javel. This was supposedto take out the bright printing that camewith every flour bag, but sadly, it neverquite did the job. It wasn’t unusual forme to wear bloomers made out of thebags, with “Pride of the Valley” stillquite visible across my seat!Then the bags had their secondwashing. If it was a sunny day, theywere spread out on the grass outside inthe hope the hot rays of the sun wouldfurther diminish the vivid printing onevery bag.Mary Cook’sMemoriesMARY COOKAlthough everyone I knew in Northcotemade use of flour and sugar bags,older girls like my sister Audrey wouldnever admit their underwear once camefrom Five Roses Flour. Happy was theday when Audrey was finally wearingstore-bought bloomers from Renfrew.But alas, as long as I went to the NorthcoteSchool, my lot in life was flour bagunderwear!The best bags, once they had beenwashed, were laid out flat, and the verybest of them became sheets. It took fourbags to make one sheet, and I was offthe farm before I found out that sheetsdidn’t come with a seam down the middleand one going cross-wards!Working around the printed wordswas a challenge for Mother. She madesure that the best pinny aprons werePhoto by LAURIE WEIRevents were on tap for visitors to enjoy. The BIA worked in conjunctionwith the Woolgrowers for the successful day’s event.free of print, and pillow cases, sometimesafter being bleached three of fourtimes, were ready for embroidering byAudrey and me.I thought my sister was very cleverindeed. She made beautiful crossstitching,which I never did seem tobe able to master. French knots wereanother specialty of my talented sisterAudrey, and ‘company’ tea towelswere festooned with lovely embroiderywork, which I was quick to point out towhatever guest happened to be helpingus red up the kitchen.The aprons Mother made out offlower bags were enormous. They hadlong tails to tie at the back, and whenI had to wear one to churn for butter,it covered me from chin to my ankles,and lay in a heap around my feet on thefloor.A coat hook at the back kitchen doorheld many aprons. These were alwaysfresh as a daisy, ironed, and spankingwhite.As soon as Mother heard someonecome in the lane, she ripped off theapron she was wearing, even if she hadjust put it on that morning, and reachedfor one off the hook. Heaven forbid thatshe should be caught with a spot on anapron in front of company, even if itwas just another farmer coming to havea chat with Father!Rick rack braid went on collars offlour-bag blouses to take away the lookof where they had come from. The bagshad many uses, and the price was justright for those Depression years. Andwhat was known many years later asrecycling was just another way of survivingthose days when there was nomoney for frivolities.Although just about everyone at theNorthcote School wore flour-bag underwear,with a few exceptions like mylittle friend Joyce and bad Marguirite,there were times when I wished therewas a better way of getting rid of thehateful dyed printing on just about everypair of bloomers I wore.The answer came one morning whenI was dressing for school. I mistakenlyput the bloomers on backwards. Theprinting was still there, but it was lesslikely to be seen in a game of tag or ballif my skirt accidentally flew up. Everafter, I went to the Northcote Schoolwith my flour-bag underwear on backwards,and no one was the wiser!65 Lorne St., P.O. Box 158,Smiths Falls, Ont.

We are grateful for all the supportfrom our community!June is Adopt-a-Shelter-Cat MonthLAWS have a number of black ormainly black cats available for adoption.Black cats are the most passed over atall shelters. Why? Besides superstition,black cats don’t grab your eye’s attentionas much as coloured or marked catsin a room full of wandering shelter cats.If in a cage, they just seem to blend-inwith the walls. Many shelters immediatelyeuthanize a great portion of theirblack cats upon intake. The remaindermay languish in a shelter for a very longtime.LAWS is a no-kill shelter. Each oneof these beautiful blacks has a home,food and warmth for as long as it takesto find a forever home.Do you love black cats as much as wedo? Please consider visiting the shelterand adopting or fostering a black cat…we have a special furry companion waitingjust for you.This week’s featured petsThunderThunder is an example of a very hardto place cat. Thunder is older (14 years),black (usually the last cats to be adopted)and diabetic. Diabetic cats can bevery hard to regulate in a stressful shelterenvironment and difficult for rescueshelters to place.Sometimes, we don’t find out a cat isThis Week’s Petsdiabetic until they become very ill inshelter.There are times too, that cats aresurrendered to LAWS due to diabetes.Their owners may feel overwhelmedwith the special diet and medical carerequired. Diabetes, on its own, is not areason to consider euthanasia. LAWS is,and will remain, a no-kill shelter; whichmeans that we will care for a diabetic catfor as long as it takes to place them in aloving environment.MandyMandy is a black/tan female Rottweilermix approximately one-yearand eight-months-old. No dogs, cats orsmall children. Please come and meetMandy…she’ll steal your heart!JasperBeing a typical beagle, Jasper lovesto sniff and explore his surroundings.He enjoys his walks but doesn’t care forcars as they pass him by. He does wellwith people and other dogs. He is veryenergetic when he plays, and his earsflapping in the wind while he runs willbring a smile to anyone’s face.LAWS (Lanark Animal Welfare Society)is located on Glenview Road, justoff Highway 43, about 2 kilometres westof Smiths Falls.

She likened theconnections in your brain to vegetation,saying that it can be like a densejungle, a sparse desert or a multitudeof stages in between; the more densethe vegetation in your brain, the moreconnections it has, and the healthierit is.The brain will prune itself when itis not in frequent or active use, cuttingconnections and weakening themind.“You either use it or you lose it,”Scheidl said.Similarly, cognitive therapy – thepractise of training the brain after anaccident or illness – can have significantimpact on healing the brain afterhead trauma or for dementia sufferers,and the brain can bounce back.Schiedl said a study by the Universityof London found that cognitivetherapy can be just as or more effectivethan dementia drugs when itcomes to improving condition.Improving the condition of dementiapatients can mean recoveringnormal brain functions or simplypreventing a further slip into the disease.“In many cases improvement isslight, but the delay of decline ishuge,” said Scheidl.Patients who underwent cognitivetherapy showed improvementsin many areas of their lives: they becamemore independent, happier andwere able to, in many cases, do moreof the things that they used to do beforethe illness.In addition to helping the patientsthemselves, cognitive therapy canchange a caregiver’s world as well. Ina time where many young people arehaving to take on the responsibility ofcaring for their parents in old age, animprovement in the mind can relievea caregiver of over 200 hours of workassociated with helping them.Fit Minds recently began a partnershipwith the Mills CommunitySupport Corporation and has developeda program to help caregivers,both professional and family, use awww.emconline.caFit Minds programs can help improve quality of life for dementia patientsPhoto by KELLY KENTRandall Milburn, left, and Nicole Scheidl, chief executive officer of Fit Minds, a company devoted to helpingpeople build and maintain healthy brains, gave a presentation Wednesday, June 12 at Almonte CountryHaven to talk about their new program, InterAct, designed to help dementia sufferers maintain and evenimprove their minds.comprehensive cognitive stimulationpackage to engage the minds of dementiapatients.The program is called InterAct anduses games, puzzles and strategies inthe five areas of cognition – languageand music, visual and spatial organization,memory, critical thinking andcomputation - to stimulate the mindwith the help of one on one interactionwith a real person.Social interaction, along withlearning, exercise and diet, is verycritical to keeping a healthy mindand building cognitive resilience,said Scheidl. “That’s why it’s so importantas you age to keep your socialinteractions.”There are two ways to take advantageof the InterAct program: by hiringa cognitive coach from Fit Mindsto work with a dementia sufferer, or afamily member can become a cognitivecoach.On June 21 and 22, Fit Minds willbe holding a workshop for professionalcaregivers and family memberswhere one can learn how to be asuccessful cognitive coach.The workshop will touch on manythings, including how to assess thelevel of dementia and will suggeststrategies on how to get a skepticalpatient to try the program. The costfor the weekend is $150, discountedfrom a regular price of $400.In comparison, hiring a coach fromFit Minds costs approximately $25to $40 per hour, and Scheidl recommendsdoing the cognitive therapythree times a week.A family kit can also be purchasedfrom Fit Minds to help families docognitive therapy with their lovedones who may be suffering from theillness. The kit costs $79 and includesgames – like a timeline game, whichlists significant events in history; theobject is to put them in order – andinformative booklets.There are also many resources onthe Fit Minds website, www.fitminds.ca, for caregivers and for informationon packages.R0011949072_tfTeamHERITAGE WAY REALTY BROKERAGEIndependently owned and operatedCarleton Place 613-253-3175Almonte 613-256-5677www.coldwellbankerhomes.caRobin J.

LOCAL NEWSConnected to your communityCOUNTYFrom front pagePlace.”The municipal leader believes alternative3b is a very good choice. “It givesthe mayor the opportunity to make thedecision,” said LeBlanc.“I agree with alternative 3b,” saidCoun. Gary Strike. “The mayor can decidewhether they want to go or not, andit doesn’t change the election.”“It does change the election somewhat,”added Probert. “If the mayordecides not to go to county council, theselection of the alternative will be madeby council and not the general electorate.”Coun. Jerry Flynn said having themayor sitting around the council tablebrings respect and credibility.“I share your views, Jerry,” said Antonakos.“I’d like status quo. However, Isee it’s not an option.”He noted it is very clearly impliedthat when you run for mayor or deputymayor, you shall be appointed to countycouncil.“Wasn’t the last term of council also afull-time position for the mayor?” askedAntonakos.“You’re deemed to be full-time,” saidLeBlanc, “but I’m talking about workinghere in the office from the houryou choose to come in to the hour youchoose to go home, in addition to anywork you do to committee work in theevenings and on weekends.”In the last term of council, Antonakosnoted there was a substantial raise in themayor’s compensation. He said the rationalefor the raise was in recognitionof the mayor’s work being a full-timejob.“That was the pitch,” he said. “Whathas changed from last term to thisterm?”“I don’t recall when the raise was putinto effect, but it was something we allvoted on,” said LeBlanc.She noted the previous mayor (PaulDulmage) was paid a salary plus $20,000to act as an economic development officer.When LeBlanc became mayor shedeclined to take the $20,000.“I knew the money could be betterspent in other areas,” she said.“I’m not referring to that,” said Antonakos,“but I agree with you.”Again, he commented the rationalefor the mayor’s raise was because themayor’s job had become a full-time position.“What is the difference between thatterm of council and this term?” askedAntonakos.“I think the difference is quite anobvious one,” said LeBlanc. “I like tothink that it is. Without going into personalities,the amount of time I spendon the job and the commitment I have tothe community is substantially differentfrom what was spent in the last term ofoffice.”In reference to Flynn’s comment, themayor said: “Around the council table atcounty council everyone has one vote.I can absolutely assure you no differenceis paid to someone being a mayor,deputy mayor or council representative.Around the table all are treated equal –by council members and staff.”“I think it’s fairly safe to say the Townof Carleton Place now requires a 40 hourper week mayor (municipal business),”added Coun. Doug Black. “The town isgrowing, it’s prosperous. If we throw inanother 20 hours for County council, weare now asking an individual who wantsto be the mayor of Carleton Place togive approximately 60 hours per weekfor the next four years.”When too many tasks are taken onin municipal government, a person maynot do them all as well as you should,he continued. Therefore, Black supportsinvestigating the subject of representationon county council.“I still there are lots of choices themayor can make as far as her workload,”said Flynn. “There are lots of things thatcould be delegated to the six other peoplethat sit on this council.”“I don’t think you should say ‘herworkload’, but the mayor’s workload,”said LeBlanc.Deputy mayor Ed Sonnenburg saidhe is “in the middle on this.”“I definitely think the deputy mayorshould go,” he said.“County is the last level of governmentbefore we hit the province andwe’d be wise to continue to have ourtwo highest elected officials representingus there,” said gallery member BrianDoucette, a former councillor.Former councillor Dennis Burn saidthe workload has tripled. “Downloadingfrom the province has put a lot moreemphasis onto the municipal level, andthe mayor’s position is now more than afull-time position,” he said.He believes the town should go backto the old system: an elected reeve, deputyreeve and mayor.“Three separate positions chosen bythe electorate not council,” said Burn.“No back room deals and patronage. Inmy opinion, alternative two would bethe best.”Local realtor Ralph Shaw said thereare less important things to delegatethan attendance at county council. Hesupports status quo.In March 1997, Lanark County counciladopted bylaw number 97-13, whichdeals with the composition, size andnumber of votes on council.“In terms of local representation, thebylaw states in part that Lanark Countycouncil ‘shall hereafter be composed oftwo representatives from each of the localmunicipalities’,” explained Rogers.The late Brian Costello was the firstmayor of Carleton Place to go to countycouncil.Probert, who chaired the June 11meeting noted “the matter will bebrought forward to a meeting in September.”Municipal MattersJune 20, 2013R0012167728_0620UPCOMING COUNCIL MEETINGS:June 25 @ 6:00 pmCouncilCommittee of the Whole(Special Meeting to Wrap Upprior to Summer Recess)All meetings held in the Council Chambers(3131 Old Perth Road)unless otherwise indicated.SKATE PARKThe Town of Mississippi Mills, Recreation andCulture Department in conjunction with TYPS(Taking Young People Seriously) are offeringThe Youth of Mississippi Mills the opportunityto explore 3 different Skateboard Parks thissummer!!The cost to attend each trip will be $5.00/Youth.This will cover the cost of the bus transportationto and from the skate parks.The trip schedule is as follows:Wednesday July 3rd – Legacy,Nepean – 12 p.m- 5 p.mWednesday July 24th – Orleans,Skatepark – 12 p.m to 5 p.mWednesday August 14th – Madoc,Skatepark – 10 a.m to 6 p.m(The bus pick up and return location is at TYPS- Taking Young People Seriously, 65 Mill Street.Please ensure you arrive at least 30 minutes priorto the time of departure.)For more information or to sign up for a trip pleasecontact TYPS at 613-256-8485 or Calvin MurphyRecreation Coordinator (Town of MississippiMills) at 613-256-1077 Ext: 24.ACCESSIBILITY – DID YOU KNOW?Don’t hesitate to advise the Town if youencounter a barrier when utilizing the Town’sservices or visiting one of our facilities.

The silver maplescame from Kemptville’s Ferguson ForestCentre.Carleton Place councillors LouisAntonakos and Rob Probert, as well asrepresentatives from Mississippi ValleyConservation (MVC), RBC branchesin Carleton Place, Almonte, Perth andPortland, and the Centre for SustainableWatersheds (CSW), were in attendancefor the event. The silver maples will helpenhance a shoreline vegetated buffer theMVC created along with help from CarletonPlace High School students.“This so-called ‘ribbon of life’, theshallow waters and first 10 to 15 metresof shore around lakes and rivers is up tofive times more diverse in plants and animalsthan other upland environments,”commented CSW shoreline stewardshipcoordinator, Lynne Preston. “This richhabitat supports plants, insects, amphibians,birds, mammals and fish. Keepingshorelines natural is the easiest way toprotect water quality, fisheries resourcesand the value of waterfront properties.”Preston said that activities such aswaterfront development are deterioratingthe shores of many of Canada’slakes and rivers.Local RBC branches, Mississippi Valley Conservation(MVC) and the Centre for Sustainable Watersheds(CSW) celebrated RBC Blue Water Day June 14 in RiversidePark.

LOCAL NEWSConnected to your communitySome important tips to follow if the bedbugs ever biteBy KELLY KENTkkent@perfprint.caEMC News – “Sleep tight. Don’t letthe bedbugs bite.”It’s a saying we’ve all heard andprobably passed off as just that – a saying.But have we ever given any thoughtabout what to do if the bedbugs ever didbite?Unfortunately, we might have to startthinking about it soon. A recent articleby the Ottawa Citizen quotes an OttawaPublic Health inspector saying that, inthe last 10 years, bedbugs have infestedalmost every building that rents in thecity, from hotels and motels to apartmentbuildings – and that the bugs arethere to stay.Given our proximity to the city, it ispossible that the infestation will spreadto this area, although Joan Mays, themanager of community health protectionwith the Leeds, Grenville and LanarkDistrict Health Unit, says that it isnot a major concern at this time.Still, with so many people workingin and visiting Ottawa, it is possible thatbedbugs, which are “expert hitchhikers,”according to the Ottawa Public Healthinspector, could begin to infiltrate ourarea.Submitted photoBedbugs have become a nasty problem in Ottawa with the insects infestingnearly every building in the city over the last 10 years. Accordingto the Leeds, Grenville and Lanark District Health Unit, they aren’t aconcern in our region, but people should take preventative measures.So what are bedbugs? Bedbugs aresmall, flat insects that make their homesinside your house, often in your bed. Thebugs are harmless, at least from a healthperspective, but can be a nuisance.“Bedbugs in themselves are not ahealth concern,” said Mays. “They donot carry diseases like ticks. The problemnormally only come around afterpeople have been scratching the bitesand causing them to become infected.”Mays says that bedbugs are not anissue in the Carleton Place and MississippiMills area as far as she knows, andalso says that as long as people take theproper precautions, we can keep it thatway.There are some preventative measuresthat you can take to keep yourhome bedbug free, but no one is immuneto an infestation; bedbugs are notdrawn to unclean homes, contrary topopular belief. “Even the cleanest homecan have bedbugs,” said Mays. “They donot discriminate. Any house can have aproblem.”While cleaning your house will notguarantee that it will remain bug free,getting rid of clutter can help reduce therisk of a full-blown infestation, simplybecause the bugs will be easier to spot.“I also don’t want to discourage reusingand recycling items,” said Mays,“but you must be careful what you arebringing into your home because thebugs can often be transmitted on old furniture.”But it’s not just old furniture that youneed to be cautious of, bedbugs can hitchthemselves onto almost anything: clothing,shoes, library books, car upholsteryand even pets.The golden rule if you’re concerned,according to Mays, is just to perform aquick bug check before you bring foreignitems into your home or after stayingsomewhere else.Even if you’ve been checking whatgoes into your home regularly, it is still agood idea to inspect your home periodicallyfor bedbugs.Mays says to check your mattresses,couches and other furniture for the bugsand also for signs that the bugs may havebeen there and moved on.“Check for the bugs,” she said, “butalso check for small spots of blood onthe sheets or cushions.”Another tell tale sign you’ve got abedbug problem is the bites themselves.If you start noticing small bug bites onyour arms, stomach or legs that youcan’t explain, chances are they’ve infiltratedyour home.The problem with bedbugs is thatonce you have them, they are incrediblydifficult to get rid of. They can hide inthe smallest of cracks, evading vacuumcleaners and multiplying frequently.So what do you do once the bedbugshave bitten? The first thing you need todo, says Mays, is report the problem.Call a local health unit and notify themthat you have noticed them in your home.Anything that can be done to stem thespread of the bugs will be a big help.Next, Mays says to de-clutter yourhome to reduce the number of areasthe bugs can hide. Then, vacuum up asmany of them as you can and then getthe vacuum bag or canister out of yourhouse as soon as possible.If you feel the problem is getting outof hand, call a professional. An exterminatoror pest control might want to fumigateyour home to eradicate as many ofthe bugs as possible, since they spreadfrom home to home so easily.More information on bedbugs can befound at www.bedbugsinfo.ca.Photo by KELLY KENTOn Friday, June 14, the students at Pakenham Public School createdtheir very own Harlem Shake video to promote Puppets Up!

OPINIONEDITORIALWe need a Canadian ThawEMC Editorial – For those of you who had apool going for Toronto Mayor Rob Ford resigning,guess what? You lost.Who would have thought that it would beMontreal Mayor Michael Applebaum who wouldbe arrested, on 14 counts of corruption no less, thispast Monday, and then resign the next day.The problems that have shaken even jaded Montrealersthis week just underscore that somethingbeyond rotten has infected our politics.To bring you up to speed:* Last week, police across the provincelaunched a series of drug raids in Toronto andWindsor. Young men seen in the now-infamousphoto posing with Ford were some of those pickedup. Most telling was that Toronto Police Chief BillBlair refused to rule out Ford as being connectedwith the investigation. If Ford was not involved,Blair could simply have said as such, without jeopardizingthe investigation or the upcoming trials.Blair did not.* Applebaum wasn’t the only person pickedup in Montreal this week. Former city councillorSaulie Zajdel was also arrested, as was formerbureaucrat Jean-Yves Bisson. Zajdel was a Conservativecandidate in Montreal in 2011, but nowstands accused of five charges, including bribery,breach of trust, fraud, and corruption. Add to thisunsavoury side-story that Zajdel was dubbed the“shadow MP”, in a shady war, even after the election,with Liberal MP Irwin Cotler. Zajdel was, inessence, treated as the MP-in-waiting, followed bya telephone campaign telling constituents aboutCotler’s impending retirement - which was <strong>news</strong> toCotler. A precursor to the robocalls scandal, whichleads us to...* The finding Federal Court Judge Richard Mosleylast month that there was indeed a “concertedcampaign” in the 2011 federal election to dissuadevoters from the polls. Even though he determinedthat it did not alter the outcomes of any individualraces, he ruled that the robocall scandal undermines“the integrity of the electoral process.”* Add to this that Gilles Vaillancourt, the formermayor of Laval, one of Quebec’s largest cities, wascharged with gangsterism last month.* Toronto Mayor Rob Ford finds out today(Thursday) if the Supreme Court of Canada willhear the appeal of the conflict of interest rulingagainst him.Editorial PolicyThe Canadian Gazette EMC welcomes letters to the editor.

Y’know, just ‘cause.* We’ve already spilled enough ink on SenatorsMac Harb, Mike Duffy, Pamela Wallin, and PatrickBrazeau, but it’s just another bump in the road.We know that Prime Minister Stephen Harper maybe many things, but unethical is not one of them.However, his track record of Senate appointments,is pretty terrible.* Now, while federal Liberal party leader JustinTrudeau didn’t break any laws by taking fees of upto $20,000 from charities to give speeches, and allof the money was accounted for – a nice change- it is still the rancid, turned icing on the slice ofdung heap that Canadian politics appears to havebecome.As The Beatles once sang, “It’s all too much/For me to take.” This reads like a political sagafrom some banana republic - but this is Canada, forEMC Editorial– The first dayof summer (June21) is just aroundthe corner andmany area residentsare spendingthe majority of their time outdoors afterwhat seemed like a particularly long winter.Unfortunately, some have opted to use ourcommunities as their own personal dumpingground.Littering is an issue that happens yearround,it just seems more noticeable in themilder months because the winter’s snowblankets the unsightly mess. Granted, somepeople litter accidentally when somethingfalls out of their pockets or purse, but mostsimply don’t care that they are doing it. Infact, according to the Litter Reduction TaskForce in Waterloo, ON, most littering takesplace when within five metres of a receptacle.One of my biggest pet peeves is when I’mdriving behind a person, and they decide tothrow their coffee cup or cellophane from apack of cigarettes out the window. Really?Will something happen to you if you don’tget rid of that garbage right away?I don’t understand why more people can’tkeep a small garbage bag in their vehicles tocollect the trash and then throw it out whenthey reach a receptacle. Isn’t this commonsense?Cigarette butts do seem to be one of themost common litter items and the task forceCOLUMNConnected to your communitygoodness sake. If we can find any sliver of silverfrom this thunderstorm cloud, it is that at leastthese stories saw the light of day (a free press), andthat the accused will have their day in court (anindependent judiciary).Aislin, the famed Montreal Gazette cartoonist,drew a famous cartoon after the surprise win byRené Levesque’s Parti Quebecois in 1976 in whichQuebec’s diminutive new leader, trademark ciggiein hand, pointed to the reader and said, “O.K.,everybody take a Valium.”Now, considering Ford’s alleged drug problem,this might not be the best advice in 2013.We have about two years to go before thenext federal election. Plenty of time to stage bigdemonstrations, and other actions, to let our politiciansknow that we are royally peeved, rather thanstewing over our double-doubles in the morning,as usual. Let’s do whatever it takes to let our politiciansknow that we’re mad as hell and we ain’tgonna take it from there any more.Certainly not an Arab Spring, but at least aCanadian Thaw.Nobody likes a litterbugASHLEY KULPnotes that 8,000tonnes of cigarettebutts aredropped by Canadianseachyear. It actuallytakes 10 yearsfor a cigarette’s filter to biodegrade.Living on a rural road in the country, I’veseen it all. Last summer, someone (or somepeople) had decided to dot the road with theircat litter waste. For months, it wouldn’t beuncommon to see brightly-coloured plasticbags from retail outlets all over the place.Recently however, I witnessed the litteringoffense that bothers me most of all. Becausethe road I live on is a gravel one andless travelled than most, people seem to thinkthat it’s okay to dump whatever they want.I’ve seen mattresses and tables flung into theswampy areas and large black garbage bagsbobbing in the water. It’s disgusting. Lastweek, someone had opted to drop off an oldwasher they no longer had need for. I’m notsure if it’s just sheer laziness that promptspeople to do this or if they’re trying to avoidpaying disposal fees at the landfill site, but itcreates more work for the townships in whichwe live. Employees who may have been makingimprovements to the roads are routinelytaken off their duties in order to clean up themesses.We all have habits we’d like to shake andperhaps if more of us made a concerted effortagainst littering, our communities would reapthe benefits.The Usual KulpritWrite on: We love receiving letters to theeditor.

Take Action Now!Skin cancer is the most common typeof cancer, but it’s also one of the mostpreventable. Exposure to UV rays –whether from the sun’s rays, tanning bedsor sun lamps – increases the risk for nonmelanomaand melanoma skin cancers.There is no safe way to get a tan. Toreduce your risk of getting skin cancer, donot use artificial tanning equipment such astanning beds or sun lamps.Because indoor tanning is especiallyharmful to young people, the CanadianCancer Society believes that:• people under the age of 18 should notbe allowed by law to use indoor tanningequipment.• indoor tanning advertising aimedat people under the age of 18 should bebanned.What needs to happen:Federal, provincial and territorialgovernments should regulate the indoortanning industry by requiring theregistration of tanning beds and sun lamps,licensing of staff and regular inspectionof equipment and premises.Tanning equipment should be labelledin a way that clearly explains the healthrisks.The indoor tanning industry must stopusing misleading phrases such as safe, noharmful rays, no adverse effects or similarwording. Ontario needs a tan bed ban!Send your MPP a message supporting atan bed ban in Ontario. Tell the Governmentof Ontario to take action and pass legislationprohibiting youth under the age of 18 fromusing tanning beds.Visit takeaction.cancer.ca/indoortanningto learn more.THE EMC - A/CP20 - Thursday, June 20, 2013Photo by KELLY KENTAngels among usThe Arc Angels team embraced the spirit of this year’s Relay For Life theme, ‘TropicallyRelaying for Life,’ wearing their brightly-coloured grass skirts as they made their wayaround the track at Gemmill Park during the team parade.Fundraising Club winnersBRONZESMAC Army – Team Captain BrandiMacGregorCarmel’s Angels – Team Captain Tanya MunroWalkie Talkies – Team Captain Leslie WilliamsLUC/Friends Forever – Team Captain JulieDillabough-WarkGOLDFor The Love of Dido – Team Captain DebMortonMardi-Gras Mammas – Team Captain Tammy-DowningTop Fundraisers#1: Donna McLeod of the Mardi Gras Mammas#2: Marilyn Muldoon of For The Love of Dido#3: Wayne Irwin of For The Love of DidoPhoto by KELLY KENTThe first lap of the track at Relay For Life is dedicated to local cancer survivors.

Supernaturalpowers include shape shiftinginto human or animal forms,the ability to speak to humanswithout moving their mouth, themagic of moving instantly fromplace to place without usingtheir wings, and the sorcery toappear uninvited in the dreamsof the living. The Tengu is thepatron of martial arts.“The forest has a historic associationwith demons in Japanesemythology,” said Gallagher.“The Japanese believe theforests are alive.”He noted the government– as late as 1860 – would postofficial notices to the Tengu, requestingthe goblins temporarilyvacate certain mountains.The Tengu of Kami, by EdwardMast, tells the tale ofyoung Murasaki (Berkowitz).After learning her impendingnuptials are not quite what shehad imagined, she runs awayto the forest to escape. There,she comes across the head forestdemon, Tengu (Eyamie), alost poet, Yoshi (Straznicky),the bandit leader, Gonzuke(French), and his loyal assistant,Oma (Cluett). With all maleeyes turned toward the enchantingMurasaki, much dueling andswashbuckling ensue.When word emerges the forest’sowner, Genji (Albert), intendsto destroy the beautifulwoods, bandits, poets, demonsand humans must all unite tosave the trees of Mount Kami.“Students challenged themselves,”said Gallagher. “Thegroup is a lot like our main character,Murasaki.”Summer:the perfect time to shop local!…Now that summer has arrived (not a minute too soon!) many of us think about gettingaway for a break in the beautiful weather.

Emergencycrews from the Lanark County Ambulance Service(LCAS) and Mississippi Mills Fire Department(MMFD) responded to a call reporting that 10 peoplewere suffering from various critical injuries.Arriving on scene, rescue crews found a four-carcollision with downed power lines, trapped victims andseveral walking wounded. The “accident” was actuallypart of a pilot project to train paramedics to deal withmajor motor vehicle accidents where a large number ofpeople are severely injured. Working together with theMMFD Rapid Auto Extrication Team, the paramedicsconducted their rescue, while the entire event wasfilmed for use in future training of other paramedics.The live training exercise was created by theRegional Paramedic Program of Eastern Ontario(RPPEO), which is responsible for the oversight andtraining of paramedics in advanced life support skills.The 10-member team, led by Dr. Richard Dionne,wanted to provide the most realistic scenario possibleto challenge the paramedics’ ability to deliver rapid,high-quality emergency medical care under the mosttrying circumstances.Following the exercise, a debriefing session washeld with the paramedics and firefighters to review theirresults. Dr. Dionne congratulated the team on a jobwell done, saying that this high-stress, high-impact typeof call challenges all emergency workers. ParamedicDarryl Fleming commented that this dynamic typeof exercise is a reminder of the importance of sharedtraining with our area fire departments and the positiveimpact it has on emergency patient care.The exercise was observed by Lanark CountyCouncillors John Levi and Sharon Mousseau, MaryWilson Trider, President & CEO of Almonte GeneralHospital, which oversees the operations of theambulance service, and Rick Hannah, Lanark County’sEmergency Services Coordinator. Students from theParamedic Program at Algonquin College acted as thecasualties.Ed McPherson, Chief of LCAS thanked the RPPEOand the paramedics who volunteered their time forthe exercise. He gave special thanks to Fire Chief ArtBrown and his department for hosting the event. “Itwas an incredible learning experience for all involved,demonstrating the commitment of both the ambulanceand fire services to providing the highest quality ofcare to those that need our help in Lanark County,” Mr.McPherson said.This ad is generously underwritten by theTHE EMC - A/CP30 - Thursday, June 20, 2013R0012169201/0620

Lamothe plans to build onher successes from the last pageant bybringing something no other girl can tothe upcoming competition.“I’m just not going to change who Iam. They’re looking for confidence outthere,” she said.Lamothe will be one of the youngestcompetitors at the national level,but this hasn’t stopped her from makinggood friends with other Ontario crownholders and those from across Canada.In fact, it is these friendships that Lamothehopes to be the legacy of her timein the Miss Teen Canada-World competition.This gift is one of many the14-year-old has gained throughout theentire process.“I’ve gained a feeling of responsibility.I feel in charge of something,” saidthe young teen.She encourages anyone who mightbe interested in challenging themselveson and off the stage to consider theMiss Teen Canada competition in futureyears. Those wishing to cheer Lamotheon can do so from the comfort of theirhome July 20 as the national pageant isplanned to be live aired online.For further details on this and otherupdates of Lamothe’s experience pleasefollow her on her blog: www.missteenlanarkcounty.com.TIRES
REGIONAL NEWSTHE EMC - 26 - Thursday, June 20, 2013Connected to your community2013 VW Jetta Turbo Hybrid: The Un-hybridEMC Lifestyle – The vehiclesI road-test for these reviews (yes,it’s a tough job, but I’m willing tomake sacrifices), come from twomain sources: press fleets ownedby the Canadian head offices of themanufacturers and area dealerships.If you are interested in learningmore about any of these vehicles,check out the manufacturers’websites or better yet, call your localdealership and speak to one of theirknowledgeable staff. It’s the ultimatein interactive information gathering.The VW Jetta Turbo Hybrid Ienjoyed for this review came fromthe friendly folks at Myers VW inOttawa West.Gasoline/electric hybrid vehiclesare well established in today’sautomotive arena with more than 6.3million units on the road worldwide.Coming in all shapes, sizes, andconfigurations, it’s hard to make anygeneralizations about hybrids savethis one: few shoppers have drivingperformance in mind when theyare considering a hybrid vehicle.Volkswagen has rewritten that rule inthe handbook of their all new 2013Jetta Turbo Hybrid.First, a step back to remindeveryone what a gasoline/electrichybrid vehicle is. It’s a vehicle thatpropels its wheels by means ofboth a gasoline engine and electricmotor. The drive batteries do notrequire an external power sourcebut are recharged automatically bythe gasoline engine and generatorsbuilt onto the wheel’s brakes. Mostconfigurations use the electric motorsas the primary power source and onlyengage the gasoline engine whenrequired due to acceleration or loaddemands or when the drive batteriesare low.The Jetta Turbo Hybrid starts theprice trek at $27,875 for the Trendlinemodel, and goes up to $30,175 for theComfortline (my tester from MyersVW). All prices are before dealerprep, destination fees, licensing, orpurchase or government incentives.The 1.4 L 4-cylinder engine is ratedfor 150 HP, but the electric driveeffectively adds another 20 HP onpeak-demand for a total of 170 HP at5,000 rpm. Torque (which is what getsyou going after all) is rated at 187 lb/ft and it peaks at an unbelievably low1,000 rpm thanks to the full-torqueon-demandnature of electric motors.This means no delay or hesitationwhen you floor the accelerator.For those not familiar with theJetta platform, it provides a roomycabin, plenty of rear seat leg andhead room, and is very easy to get inAutoKnowBRIAN TURNERand out of. The hybrid version bringsthe added benefit of the placement(low and rear) and weight of thedrive batteries. This improves thestability of an already stable sedanand gives it large-car surefootednesson the highway with an exceptionallyquiet ride. If you’re taking off from astop or accelerating at speed to passor merge, the Jetta Turbo Hybridis decidedly un-hybrid-like in itsmanners bringing you into demeritpointrange in mere seconds. And onthe carbon-footprint side, it’s capableof travelling up to 70 kph on electricdrive only.There’s a small sacrifice to cargospace in the trunk of the Jetta thanksto the drive-batteries. Capacity is11.3 cubic feet, while a non-hybridJetta has 15.5 cubic feet of trunkspace.On the operating costs front, adealership oil change for the hybridwill run around $100 using therecommended synthetic oil. Frontbrake pads and rotors are $120 and$102 respectively and an air filteris only $26. The P205/50R17 tiresmy Jetta wore are available froma very large range of makers inthe $150-$250 each price region.VW backs their Jettas with a fouryear/80,000km base warranty, a fiveyear/100,000km power-train planand the hybrid system is covered foreight years/160,000 km.Canada’s NRCan rates the fueleconomy of the hybrid at 4.5L/100 km city and 4.2 L/100 kmhighway (62.8 mpg and 67.3 mpgrespectively). The EPA of the U.S.however pegs this fuel sipper at 50.4mpg and 57.6 mpg (converted toimperial gallons). Using the NRCannumbers, the 45 L fuel tank shoulddeliver a whopping range of 900 kmin a 50/50 mix of city/highway travelcosting only $52 to fill with premiumfuel at $1.30 per litre. But this is aturbo-charged engine after all, and ifyou like to drive mainly in the boostrange your fuel mileage will reactaccordingly.If you’re looking for the legendaryengineering and reliability of VWwith performance to boot and a smallcarbon trail, the Jetta Turbo Hybridhas to be on your very short list.Submitted photosPictured: The Jetta Turbo Hybrid offers a high performance automobile with a small carbon trail (above andbelow left) .Happy Birthday Royal LePage!Our past.

Mother is where she longed to bewith dad, they are now together side by side inheaven with the angels. In a letter from Motherin September of 2007, the last time I ever sawher, when at home she reminded me of threethings, God, her family and friends, and lasther home, where she loved to be. She alwayswelcomed everyone with a beautiful smile thatno man could ever match. Mother was greatlyadmired and respected by those around her,she would brighten up a room with her smileand brought joy to many. Mother loved tohave a good time, and now she is singing withthe angels and dancing with the stars. What ahappy reunion she is having with all her lovedones gone on before her. As saddened as I amwith her passing, I who benefited and lovedher so much, know in my heart she will alwaysbe near.

Nineteen sites opened their doors to give the public an opportunity to explore. Left, at theRideau Environmental Action League (REAL), tours were offered of the organization’s garden and grounds,as well as the store. Above, on Russell St., artists previewing the Art Journey studio tour, held June 15 and16, showcasing their works.Reader provides positive feedback for Car CounselorEMC Lifestyle - It was nice to getsome good <strong>news</strong> follow-up from areader.“Dear Mr. Turner,I contacted you a year or so ago regardingthe failure of the ball joints andtie-rod ends of my 2007 Jeep Patriotafter only 60 kilometres. The repairprice quoted by my dealership Dodgewas very steep - some $1,500. I wasable to find a reputable shop that didit for $1,100, the main difference beinghigher labour costs at the dealer. Thestaff at the latter told me that since mywarranty was expired, there was no waythey could reduce the price. You advisedthat I should have gone directly to thegeneral manager of the dealership andit is likely that some accommodationcould have been achieved.An opportunity arose recently forme to reopen the file, this time with theDealer Principal of Southbank, Mr. GuyParker. I am happy to say that he agreedto a settlement in the spirit of what youdescribed as a “goodwill request.” It isnot a perfect solution, but fair under thecircumstances. This action has restoredmy confi dence in Southbank Dodge andmy original assessment of it as an outstandingdealership. In this respect, Mr.Parker refl ects that high esteem.In closing, I thank you for your valuableadvice.”Best regards,Sean HenryOttawaSome wheels move slowly but atleast in the right direction.Vehicle maintenance requirementsas recommended by automakers havechanged much in the last few years. Carcompanies of almost every stripe havestretched intervals in terms of time andmileage. And other than fluid and filterchanges and the odd spark plug replacement,there is very little detail as tovarious other systems and componentsof very complex machinery other thanthe word ‘inspect’.While vehicle technology has greatlyprogressed to improve efficiencies, performance,safety, and comfort, there arestill many areas of today’s vehicle thatcarry designs unchanged much from decadesago.Vehicle brakes, steering, and suspensioncomponents like many other thingsCarCounsellorBRIAN TURNERfound attached to the lower extremitiesof an auto for example, are still subjectto the same road risks as in years past,and in some cases due to road maintenancecutbacks and lighter weight carmaterials, these wearable-as-ever partssee greater risks than their automotiveancestors. If this is the case, and frommy 35 years of counter-service it is, onemight ask why carmakers don’t providemore stringent or detailed maintenanceschedules. The answer is competition.It’s all about promoting any edge yourproduct may have over the competition.And in the case of routine maintenancecosts: the lower the better. But are wesaving ourselves any money and timeand inconvenience by stretching thingsout?Having a bit of lube here or a littlerust-grinding there, or an adjustmentanywhere (required) can be a cost effectiveway of operating any vehiclesubjected to the daily and seasonal onslaughtsthat Canadians put their carsthrough. Not to mention keeping itand its occupants safe. How to knowwe’re doing enough or not (or even toomuch) becomes the question(s). Unlesswe want to take the time to learn andto do our own inspections, the answeris in developing a solid and continualautomotive business relationship witha qualified and trusted service provider.It doesn’t mean blindly following everysuggestion, but asking questions whenservices are recommended, such as: willit save me money in the long run? Orwhat are the risks in putting this off?Good service consultants are pleasedto help answer questions, because, ifthey keep their customers educated andup to date on their vehicles’ needs, itleads to repeat business and increasedreferrals. In future columns, whenspace permits (after all, your letters andquestions are priority one), I’ll delveinto various vehicle systems and componentsand what you can and can’t getaway with in terms of maintenance andregular inspections.Video contest resultsThe Ontario Ministry of Transportationrecently sponsored a video contestfor youth to deliver the message aboutthe risks of distracted driving.

REGIONAL NEWSLEASE ORFINANCECIVIC: CANADA’S FAVOURITECAR 15 YEARS IN A ROW Submitted illustrationThis is a 1953 Meteor convertible in sales brochure. A restored example for sale recentlyin the U.S. has serial #0176H5366479.PEI man owned ’53 Meteorconvertible in TorontoEMC Lifestyle - A letter arrived recentlyfrom Darryl Ramsay of Tyne Valley, PrinceEdward Island: “Bill, I’m writing about a1953 Meteor convertible I owned back in’67. I got the car from Oakwood Auto Bodyon Rogers Road and Weston Road in Toronto.They had a used car lot out back. I paid $150for the car and it was so much down and somuch a week as shown from the scribbling onthe receipt.“The car was that orange-red colour thatwas common for that year. I sold the car inApril ’68 and it ended up on Queen Street inthe east end. It was painted a dark green andI used to see it when I went out to my uncle’splace at Jones and Queen. It was there until1972. Never saw it after that.“I have often seen ’53s for sale in Ontariothrough the years and wondered if one wasmine. I kept all my old bills of sale for carsand just about everything else from back thenand I found the serial number of my Meteoron one of those papers: #0176H5366206.(The ‘H’ indicates Darryl’s car was built inWindsor whereas cars built in Oakville thatyear had ‘K’ in their serial numbers).“Maybe someone knows where my car istoday. It was rare even when I owned it. Ihave old bills from the Do It Yourself Garageat 300 Greenwood Ave. A lot of people usedto go there. I guess it’s no longer in business.I haven’t lived in Toronto since 1970.”I lived in Toronto for many years and havesome old car buddies who live in the east end.I phoned Paul Calderone and told him aboutDarryl’s letter. Paul remembers a dark green1953 Meteor convertible in the east end inthe early ’70s purchased by his friend JohnColley, who repainted it red, dropped a ChevV8 into it, and later sold it. These cars wererare and John’s Meteor is almost certainly thesame car that Darryl Ramsay owned.At the time John owned it, Paul had a 1940Ford convertible (the same car now ownedby Keith Summers in Ottawa). Paul andJohn used to park their convertibles side byside for roof races. On a given signal, theywould see whose top would go up or down thefastest. Paul’s top was vacuum-powered offthe engine and John’s was electrical. I forgotto ask who won these races.Does anyone know where Darryl’s Meteoris today?I’m always looking for more stories.

He saidhe loves being a part of the senate, and looksforward to coming back and leading the groupnext year.“I’m excited to work with the school boardtoo,” he says, adding that he attended a recentboard meeting to meet the board members andsenior team.“It was an eye-opener,” he says. “But, it wasless intimidating than I thought it would be. Itwas interesting to see how everything works.”Harbers praises Collard for her work as thestudent trustee this year.“I think she has done a great job,” he says. “Ihope to continue with the great work that she’sdoing. I want to share students’ opinions andideas with the board. I want to help get the studentvoice heard.”Collard, who is heading off to the Universityof Calgary to study international relations inthe fall, says her experience as student trusteehas helped her see what she is capable of.“I’ve learned a lot working with others, butalso with myself,” she says. “Even though I amin a leadership role, we’re all one and we’re allequal. The student senators and board membershave been very supportive of me. I’m really excitedabout next year because I know Tyler is soeager to learn and grow.”Brockville Collegiate Institute (BCI) grade11 student Brie Fraser was this year’s studentprotégé, and her experiences mirrored Collard’s.“It’s been a really incredible opportunity,”she said. “I was able to represent the studentvoice, and I learned a lot about the board andmyself.”Fraser said the leadership, determination,perseverance, and confidence she’s gainedthrough the experience has been invaluable.“This is definitely going to help me in thefuture,” she said.To meet Harbers and Collard, view their videohere: http://vimeo.com/65424391.R0012158601_0613$0DOWNPAYMENTFOR A LIMITED TIME2013 IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK:SMALL SUV2013 CANADIANCAR OF THE YEARTHE EMC - 46 - Thursday, June 20, 20130.99 %LEASE OR FINANCE STARTING FROMON SELECT 2013 HONDA MODELS.

REGIONAL NEWSAnnual report received by CDSBEO regardingrevision of special education programs, servicesEMC News – The following are highlightsfrom the Catholic District School Board ofEastern Ontario’s June 4 board of trusteesmeeting at the board office in Kemptville.Superintendent of School Effectiveness, Dr.Donaleen Hawes, presented to Trustees a draftcopy of the annual report on the provisions ofspecial education programs and services, to besubmitted to the Ministry of Education.The special education plan for 2013-2014,as outlined in the Standards for School Boards’Special Education Plans, has been compiledthrough consultation with stakeholders andkey participants. The report includes recommendationsto be implemented, includingstaffing allocations for schools, professionaldevelopment plans for communication, andparent involvement. In addition, the reportmakes accommodations for new requirementsrecently implemented by the Ministry of Educationunder Policy Program Memorandum155, Diagnostic Assessment in Support of StudentLearning.Special education funding for the board isbased on several grants provided by the Ministryof Education. In addition to the SpecialEducation Per Pupil Amount (SEPPA) andthe High Needs Allotment, the board providesfunding from the Learning OpportunitiesGrant for prevention and early interventionStrong cast serves up epic retelling of Superman taleMOVIE: Man of SteelSTARRING: Henry Cavill, Amy Adams,Laurence Fishburne, Russell Crowe, DianeLane, Kevin Costner and Michael ShannonDIRECTOR: Zack SnyderRATING: PGEMC Entertainment - Man of Steel is anambitious and daring retelling of Superman’sstory. It’s a true spectacle, but Zack Snydermay have over-reached.Snyder begins on Krypton with Kal-El’sbirth, and the events that force his parents,Jor-El (Russell Crowe) and Lara Lor-Van(Ayelet Zurer), to send him to Earth. We thenget glimpses of Clark’s (Henry Cavill) timegrowing up with his adopted parents, JonathonKent (Kevin Costner) and Martha Kent (DianeLane). We also watch him make his waythrough the world alone until he finds a pieceof his past.Clark learns that the military has founda crash site. Clark explores the site, anddiscovers an ancient Kryptonian scoutingcraft. Once onboard he inserts a small controlkey from his own space ship and meets hisfather. The holographic recording of Jor-El’sconsciousness teaches Clark about his past,the destruction of Krypton and the crimes ofprograms and services.The report indicates that staffing will beadjusted according to the grants received andapproved by the board. The board approvedthe staffing and budget recommendations fromthe Special Education Advisory Committee(SEAC). The recommendations will be includedin the annual report on the special educationprograms and services for the 2013-2014school year.Realization Learning Fair 2013On May 22, elementary and secondaryschool teams gathered at the North GrenvilleMunicipal Centre to share findings from theirschool collaborative inquiries as part of theboard’s Realization Learning initiative. Superintendentof School Effectiveness, CharlotteRouleau, presented to the board, an overviewof the Sharing and Learning Day.In a discussion group format, educatorsreflected on the learning process and collaborativeinquiries in numeracy and literacy, byasking questions, challenging one another’sthinking, and making connections to their ownpractice. School teams collected and sharedevidence of increased student achievementwhich went beyond data, including studentwork, video/audio recordings, photographs,exit cards, data charts, and anecdotal notes.Attendees also had the opportunity to hearMy TakeMARK HASKINSGeneral Zod (Michael Shannon).Zod and his commanding officers survivedthe destruction of Krypton, locked away inthe Phantom Zone. When Krypton explodedZod and his people were freed. They soonbegan searching the galaxy for a way torebuild Krypton which is why they’ve cometo Earth. Zod would use Clark, and the geneticinformation locked inside him, to rebuildKrypton. If Clark can’t stop Zod all of humanitywill be wiped out.Man of Steel has a lot going for it. The scopeof the story is epic as it attempts to give theaudience insight into who Superman is andthe events that make him a hero. It’s thrilling,exciting and larger than life.a keynote address from Sonja Karsh, a studentachievement officer for the Literacy and NumeracySecretariat, who discussed the highleverageteaching strategies woven into theschool inquiries, as well as the importanceof the “co’s” (co-planning, co-teaching, codebriefing,co-reflecting). These methods havebeen widely adopted by the school teams participatingin the initiative, with the intent toimplement and embed these strategies into theteaching culture within all schools.A video presentation of highlights from theday was played for the board. The video canbe viewed on the CDSBEO YouTube channel(www.youtube.com/CDSBEOVideo).New student trustee introducedCatholic student trustee, Sean Fry, had anopportunity to introduce Terron James to theboard of trustees. James, currently a grade 11student at Notre Dame Catholic High Schoolin Carleton Place, was elected as the new Catholicstudent trustee for 2013-14 at the StudentSenate meeting held in May.“I am eager, and excited to take on the challengesof representing 13,000 students,” emphasizedJames, who will be officially beginher term when she is sworn-in at the Aug. 27board meeting.Submitted by the Catholic School Board ofEastern Ontario.The cast is flawless. I loved Amy Adams asLois Lane. Russell Crowe is a fantastic choiceto play Jor-El, and Kevin Costner and DianeLane are perfect as the Kents. Of course the filmis nothing without Henry Cavill and MichaelShannon. Cavill is a truly great Superman,and as every hero needs his villain, Cavill hasShannon who delivers a brilliant performance.The special effects are mind blowing. Thisis how a Superman movie should look and feel.This is how gods wage war among mortals. Itis stunning from the first look at Krypton to thefinal battle that levels half of Metropolis.With all that’s good in Man of Steel it is ashame the film is so choppy. It jumps all overthe place. Snyder needs another 20 minutes tomake his scene transitions smoother, but hedoesn’t have it. On top of that the fight scenesare incredibly hard to follow.I understand Snyder wants his Kryptoniansto be god-like, and has them moving at god-likespeed, but you have to remember your audienceis mortal. A little slow motion and a few freezeframes would have gone a long way.Man of Steel is great spectacle but theexecution is a little off.Mark Haskins’ column is a regular featureof the EMC.Connected to your communityAt Satellite Truss,we know oursuccess is directlycoupled to thesatisfaction andsuccess ofour customers.We provide free quotations for all of yourroof truss and floor design needs,with quotes typically available in 5 to 10 days.Phone: 613-269-3310Toll Free: 1-800-561-0146www.satellitetruss.comR0012171863_0620The Roof Truss Specialists – Since 1974R0012166669_0620R0012155684_0613Some things are just better together.#itsbettertogetherfacebook.com/flyerland.ca@flyerlandTHE EMC - 47 - Thursday, June 20, 2013
