Celebration of life honours
Daron Richardson
DANIEL NUGENT-BOWMAN
Hundreds of friends, family and members of the hockey community at large gathered at Scotia-bank Place on Nov. 17 to celebrate the life of Daron Richardson.
Daron – the daughter of former NHL defence-man and Ottawa Senators assistant coach Luke Richardson – died in hospital on Nov. 13 after com-plications from a suicide attempt the previous day, according to a press release issued by the team.
She was 14 years old.Countless messages of Daron’s love for life, kind
heart, and prowess in the classroom, on the drama stage and ice rinks were relayed to the more than 5,600 people who attended the ceremony.
Members of her Ottawa Senators bantam AA hockey team, three teachers from Ashbury College – where Daron began high school in September after attending Elmwood School – and six friends from her close circle, dubbed the Group of Seven, remembered Daron for being a loyal and spiritual person.
The bantam Sens dedicated the remainder of their 2010-11 season to Daron’s memory.
“If you look around the room and see all the tears running down people’s faces you can see all the people Daron touched,” teammate Erin Sauve said, adding that the pair had dreams of being each other’s bridesmaids and Olympic teammates.
“You will always be in our hearts. We’ll love you forever and ever, Daron Richardson.”
Despite only knowing Daron for a short time, drama teacher Greg Simpson will remember her for having “real character.”

Successful food extravaganza
Photos by LJ Matheson
LJ MATHESON
Networking, mingling and sampling food and beverages were on the menu Wed. Nov. 17 at the Cedarhill Golf and Country Club in Barrhaven as the Great-er Nepean Chamber of Commerce held its fourth annual food extravaganza.
Friends of Hospice Ottawa was the re-cipient of a portion of proceeds from the event, which has raised approximately $20,000 in the past three years.
“We started fundraising for the Queen-sway Carleton Hospital Foundation and this year we decided to go with Friends of Hospice Ottawa,” said Virginia Boro, the chair of the board of directors for the chamber. “We want to help them with their new centre.”
Friends of Hospice Ottawa is looking to purchase a $1.6 million piece of property that includes 3.5 acres of land. It’s the hope of the hospice that they will have that amount raised by the end of Decem-ber – the deadline for the purchase offer. Currently, the organization has $500,000 toward that goal.
“The community has been wonder-fully supportive,” said Kathryn Logs-dail-Downers, the executive director at Friends of Hospice Ottawa.
This is the fourth year that the chamber has held such an event where members were able to mix and mingle, network and enjoy samples from their neighbours.
“It’s been a great evening, said Boro. “We have tried to highlight the restau-rants here who are members of the cham-ber… it’s an opportunity for them to meet other likeminded or complementary busi-nesses.”
HogsBack Brewing Company co-owner Jerry Demetriadis says the event is an opportunity to spread the word that they are going to be offering their craft lager beer at Ottawa LCBO stores within the
next week or so. “Business has been re-ally good,” he said. “We just opened the brewing company in Ottawa in April and the beer is only available at restaurants right now. But we recently had our pack-aging approved and it will be ready to purchase soon. It will be available at the Kanata LCBO in a week.”
Demetriadis says the event hosted by the chamber is an opportunity for expo-sure to the product. “That’s the key. If we can get people to taste it, they will look for it to purchase.”
Long-time business owner Mike Bouris, who operates Chances R Restaurant on Woodroofe Ave., says the chamber event is about community. “We’ve been in the business a long time and this is a chance for us to get out into the community.”
He and his father, Nick, along with Bri-an Kilrea and Matt Moore are partners in the business and it will celebrate 35 years in March next year.
Ken Ross of Ross’ Independent Grocers had a hot corner with various party fa-vourites on tap. From meatballs to cheese cake, Ross said the Presidents Choice of-ferings at the grocery store are easy ways to entertain during the festive season. “It’s all done for you,” he said.
Soula Burell, a representative of the chamber, and one of the organizers of the event said she was pleased with the turn-out. “I don’t know what the funds (raised) are yet,” she said. “Overall, we had a great event that had a wonderful turnout.”
Some 22 food and drink vendors were on site for the event.
To become a member of the chamber, the fee is $20 monthly. There are meet-ings, lunches, networking breakfasts and special events. People who are active in the chamber do business with other mem-bers looking for a product or service from the membership. For more information, contact 613-828-5556 or visit www.nepean-chamber.com.

Funding crunch for land purchaseLJ MATHESON
Friends of Hospice Ottawa was the re-cipient of a portion of funds raised at the food extravaganza hosted by the Great-er Nepean Chamber of Commerce on Wednesday, Nov. 17 at the Cedarhill Golf and Country Club.
Friends of Hospice Ottawa’s executive director Kathryn Logsdail-Downer said she was thrilled with the partnership with the Nepean chamber.
“This is the fi rst time we have part-nered with the chamber of commerce,” she said. “It’s a great opportunity for us to help raise funds for our capital proj-ect.”
The organization wants to purchase a $1.6 million property with three acres in Kanata and they have currently raised just over $500,000. “We have a way to go, and have extended the deal to the end of December,” said Logsdail-Downer. “We have already asked for an extension which took us from April to December.”
The acquisition of this site will allow the team of staff and some 145 volunteers to expand and consolidate the key com-munity support programs, including in-home support, day away hospices, trans-portation, caregiver and bereavement support, and training and education per-mitting greater reach to those who need support while living and coping with a life threatening illness, and ultimately for those who are no longer able to receive or give care in their own homes.
The second phase will involve renova-tions to the building to expand and en-hance core programs, plus provide space and access for additional community partners.
Once operational support is approved and in place, the fi nal phase will see the construction of a nine-bed residential hospice into which Friends of Hospice Ottawa would eventually be welcoming clients.
“There is a real shortage for beds in Ontario,” said Logsdail-Downer. “There should be 60-80 and 26 in Ottawa West… there are none right now and a huge area of need. We are trying to fi ll that void.”
The hospice recently held a Christ-mas luncheon and fashion show where $7,500 was raised. The executive director said she was thrilled with the results of that fund-raising effort. “Every little bit helps,” she said.
At the food extravaganza, the hospice volunteers were selling Russ bears for the cause. Each had a personalized, hand-knit sweater. A recent recruitment process re-sulted in 22 new volunteers, for a total of 145. Alice Holst and Darleen Wilson were two of the latest recruits and they were taking part in the food extravaganza, sell-ing Russ Bears, donned with hand-knit-ted, personalized sweaters.
Many of the volunteers have a personal story as to why they want to donate their time to the hospice.
“I lost two sisters to cancer,” Holst said, who was one of their main caregivers. She knows fi rst hand what the organiza-tion does and says she’s thankful to be able to give back.
As for Wilson, she has had experience with the hospice and has worked on a board of directors with Logsdail-Downer. “She put us to work right away… we just fi nished our training,” she said with a smile.
Many people, businesses and commu-nity organizations have contributed to the hospice’s success. The organization is a non-profi t organization that relies on the support of the community for fund-ing programs and services. They receive 30 per cent of their budget from govern-ment funding. That’s about $80,000.
“The bulk of our (budget) is raised through Trillium funds, the City of Ot-tawa and the United Way, as well as many fund-raising efforts,” said Logsdail-Downers. “We currently have 120 clients and with each client there are fi ve fam-ily members who also use our services. There is defi nitely a need for respite care in our area.”
The hospice offers in-home volunteer support, day hospice, caregiver support, bereavement support, transportation, community education, information and referral and emerging residential care.
Logsdail-Downers says she does a lot of referrals to hospitals, health centres, community resource centres, long-term care facilities, churches, community care access centre, retirement homes and oth-er hospices.
“We have a very good working relation-ship with other organizations,” she said.
The process of collecting more than $1 million may seem daunting to some, but the executive director says she is confi -dent that the community will help them reach their goal to purchase the property in Kanata.

My great-grandfather, Dr. Jan Ruszkowski was an eye surgeon and professor of medicine.
In his day, the only way to realistically simulate surgery was with dead bodies. This provided him with the basis for a strong education, and a way to test a future physician’s nerves.
His favourite trick with new students was to simulate inserting his fi nger into a body’s eye socket, then wait for somebody in his class to get faint and, occasionally, pass out.
Thankfully, medical education has evolved since then. Last month, Dr. Jack Kitts, CEO of The Ottawa Hospital, Allan Rock, President of the University of Ottawa and Dr. Verin Naik, Medical Director of the University of Ottawa Skills and Simulation Centre (uOSSC, www.uossc.ca) opened a simulation centre at the Civic Campus of The Ottawa Hospital.
The 20,000 square foot facility includes two operating rooms, an emergency room/trauma
area, an intensive care area and two large spaces where University of Ottawa medical students receive hands-on, realistic training with no risk to themselves or to patients.
Drawing from fl ight simulation techniques, students use virtual reality technology; full-body mannequins with voices, lung capacity, beating hearts and pulses; and life-size replicas of individual body parts to practice leading edge medical procedures.
As a result, the quality and safety of patient care they will one day provide is increased.
Practice, however, does not always make perfect. The real challenge in hospital care is not to conduct one procedure with perfection, but to replicate the perfect procedure, every time.
That is why, in addition to using current simulation tools, the centre will test new approaches and adopt them immediately when there is evidence of their effectiveness.
That is a recipe for continuous progress in medical education, quality, and patient safety.
While this progress takes the edge off of my great-grandfather’s teaching techniques, it puts a great deal more comfort into our patients’ experience.
The next time you see a young resident in their scrubs, you can trust you are in good hands.

Education
Board halts student surveyJENNIFER MCINTOSH
A controversial Ottawa-Carleton Dis-trict School Board survey looking for information on students’ sexual orienta-tion, religion and family background was delayed due to a complaint to the Ontario Offi ce of the Information and Privacy Commissioner.
The survey, which has received mixed reviews from parents, aims to fi nd out important demographic information about students to better target school programs.
“The bottom line is we want to be bet-ter able to meet the needs of our kids,” said director of education for the OCDSB, Barrie Hammond.
Lisa Nash, a teacher at Merivale High School and a parent of three, had criti-cized the survey in an earlier interview with Ottawa This Week-Nepean Edition, saying that schools should know their students.
“We (the staff) know the kids, they could have asked us,” she said.
Hammond said what while the board has a general knowledge of the city’s de-mographics, information about languag-es spoken at home and ethnic origins can help educators tailor their lessons.
The board announced they would be postponing the survey on Nov. 17. It was
due to start on Nov. 22 and run until Dec. 10.
Hammond said that he was confi dent that the commissioner would fi nd the plans to be suffi cient to protect the stu-dents’ identity — but the board will fol-low any recommendations that may be in the fi nal report.
Hammond said that he did fi nd people tended to focus on “one of the questions” when there are over 40.
“We really think this is necessary and we have worked hard for the last year to develop the questions,” he said.
The survey is part of the board’s plan for equity and diversity and follows the lead of the Toronto District Board of Education. The Toronto board says 92 per cent of its students and parents fi lled it out, with few complaints.
The board promises to keep results con-fi dential, but each survey is numbered, and the number can identify the students’ names. Hammond said the board’s own teachers and other staff will not have ac-cess to this identifi cation.
“We have been working with in-house legal and the example of the Toronto board,” he said. “I think we have done the best we can.”
There would be one questionnaire for parents of children up to Grade 6, and a different set to be answered by the stu-dents themselves from Grade 7 and older.
Affordable school space availableEDDIE RWEMA
Community groups can now access free space in eight Ottawa schools thanks to provincial funding from the Communi-ty Use of Schools initiative, which helps schools make space more affordable.
Funds announced by the province will see the selected schools waive fees and make the space accessible for free.
The announcement was made Nov. 18 by Yasir Naqvi, MPP for Ottawa Centre.
“Providing school space for free after hours will help community groups keep their costs low, and help more young peo-ple and families in our community to par-ticipate in a range of activities,” he said.
For some time now, the provincial government has been encouraging com-munity use of schools and making sure those facilities are used by a variety of
groups for different activities.The schools are located in areas where
the need for low-cost access is greatest. Both indoor and outdoor school space will be available.
Community groups that were being charged minimal costs for use on Sat-urday and Sunday will now have access to their facilities at no cost. The schools include: Bayshore Catholic Elementary School, 50 Bayshore Dr.; École élémen-taire catholique Sainte-Anne, 340 York St.; École élémentaire catholique Le Petit Prince, 349 Olmstead St.; École élémen-taire catholique Vision Jeunesse, 235 McArthur Ave.; St. Brigid Elementary School, 200 Springfi eld Rd.; École élé-mentaire publique Marie-Curie, 860 Col-son Ave.; Dr. F.J McDonald Elementary School, 2860 Ahearn Ave. and St. Eliza-beth Elementary School, 1366 Coldrey Ave.

From ‘Celebration’ on page 1
“She had the rare gift where she saw things the way they were, but also how they could be,” he said, his voice trem-bling throughout his speech.
Family friend and godfather Martin Dagenais, Luke Richardson’s former teammate with the Peterborough Petes, told the audience about Daron’s tough-ness both off the ice and on it, “which many of you probably realize came from her mother (Stephanie),” he joked.
Dagenais recalled a tournament at the Bell Capital Cup where Daron broke her arm in a semi-fi nal game, was fi tted for a cast, and suited up for the fi nal. Her team won and Daron became the only player to win it on both a boys’ and girls’ team.
In addition to those close to Daron, members from Central Hockey League teams, various minor Ottawa hockey teams, the Carleton Ravens, the Ottawa Gee-Gees, and dozens of past NHL play-ers who played with Luke Richardson over his 21-year career with six franchis-es, attended the ceremony.
Garry Galley, a former NHL defence-man and Nepean Raiders head coach, was the master of ceremonies.
“I think it says a lot about Luke and Stephanie,” Ottawa Senators general manager Bryan Murray said. “Everyone wanted to show they appreciate them and support them.”
The event was held to both honour Da-ron’s life and to draw attention to the stig-mas surrounding discussing teen suicide, said Senators president Cyril Leeder.
Leeder commended the Richardson family for making the news of Daron’s death and the ceremony public.
The Richardson family, which includes Daron’s older sister Morgan, decided to donate Daron’s organs and four separate matches were found.
“The family chose the road that’s less travelled,” Leeder said. “Sometimes that road’s more diffi cult, but that doesn’t mean it’s not the right path to choose.”
While the ceremony featured many speeches, perhaps none was more touch-ing than those given by the Group of Seven. Dressed in matching purple sweat-shirts – Daron’s favourite colour – each member addressed the audience.
“You’ll always be in our hearts,” they said in unison, afterwards.
Added member Selena Saikaley, as she fought back tears: “I wish I could have been there when you really needed some-one.”

Suicide cases at alarming rateDANIEL NUGENT-BOWMAN
In the wake of a suicide death by Otta-wa Senators assistant coach Luke Rich-ardson’s 14-year-old daughter, medical experts are urging parents to monitor their children carefully in their teenage years.
Annmarie Nicholson, director of ap-plied suicide intervention skills training at the Royal Ottawa Health Care Group says, “People can be very good at hiding what they don’t want you to see,” she said. “We become quite good masters of disguise at times.”
Dr. Ian Manion, executive director of the provincial centre of excellence for child and youth mental health at the Children’s Hospital of Eastern Ontar-io, said 17.3 per cent of the total deaths among young people nationally are by suicide. That number represents the sec-ond highest rate behind accidents.
Manion said part of the problem is that there is a strong negative stigma attached to feeling vulnerable and ask-ing for help. The decision to stay silent causes a vicious cycle.
“They stay stuck in that place longer and in pain longer and have few personal resources or coping skills to deal with it,” Manion said.
“That is a very dangerous situation because then they can resort to more un-healthy ways of coping.
“Sometimes a young person can fi nd a permanent solution to what is a tem-
porary problem. They don’t have the insight to see that things will be better a week, a month, a year from now.”
Both Manion and Nicholson said warning signs include noticeable change in a child’s behaviour, an increase in ag-gression and irritability – particularly in males, a drop off in grades, concentra-tion issues, giving away once meaningful possessions, and usage of drugs or alco-hol. Manion added that fatalistic com-ments could be uttered as well.
“They communicate that in different ways,” she said. “They do that through their behaviour.”
Nicholson advises that parents devel-op trust through regular, standard con-versation at the dinner table, which will enable them to bring up the subject of suicide and depression more naturally.
“People do not become more suicidal by talking about their suicidal feelings,” said the parent of fi ve.
“It’s the exact opposite that is true.However, Nicholson is quick to note,
that children may not feel entirely com-fortable speaking to their parents about the subject and parents must be willing to accept that.
While suicide rates among the 15-to-19 and 20-to-24 demographics have de-creased from 2003 to 2007, rates among 10-to-14-year-olds have risen.

Riverside South group is ‘active, effective’DANIEL NUGENT-BOWMAN
For an association called “active and effective,” by Nepean-Carleton MP Pierre Poilievre, the Riv-erside South Community Association feels it needs to get stronger to continue to operate smoothly.
That was message from president John Bruce throughout the association’s annual general meet-ing at the Rideauview Community Centre on Nov. 18.
While Bruce praised the association’s executive and volunteers for their tireless work organiz-ing community-driven events like its Christmas breakfast – which will take place on Dec. 11 this year – garage sales, tree plantings, and Canada Day celebrations, he said that without more help, some events might get short-changed in the future.
“We almost didn’t have it and the community didn’t even know,” Bruce said of Canada Day. “These things do not stay in place by themselves.”
Bruce made the plea to about 30 residents who attended the meeting.
With winter coming, Bruce also called on the lo-
cal citizens to assist with the maintenance of the outdoor rinks in Riverside South, namely Moun-tain Meadows and Four Seasons.
The association receives a $5,000 grant from the city for rink supplies and expenses, but volunteer work is still required to fl ood the surface and in-stall lights, which was done last year at a cost of $2,500.
“We thought it would be a good use of our mon-ey,” Bruce said.
The association organized its fi rst Hockey Day in Canada event this year and expect the event to grow in 2011.
However, the president added that the Four Sea-son’s rink is in jeopardy of shutting down because of limited assistance from the community.
“If you’re thinking your neighbour will do it, he’s thinking the same thing too and no one’s do-ing it,” Bruce said.
Webmaster and membership coordinator Mark Rogers said the population of the community is ap-proximately 10,000, comprising of 3,200 homes. He added the association is made of 439 households, a number he’d ideally like to see doubled.

Is the 21st century different from the 20th? Yup. Try this: the winner of the Giller Prize for literature is published by a small press that can only print a small number of copies. There is an immediate outcry, probably from people who only read books when they win prizes. Quick, they say, print more books. After a few days of that, one of those know-it-all Toronto columnists pronounces: What’s all the fuss, she says. You can order it on-line for your Kindle.
Of course. And welcome to the 21st century. As in the previous century, new technology continues its onslaught on an innocent public. The technology is differ-ent: eBooks, iPhones, Facebook, Twitter, iPads, Blu-ray, GPS. But the message is the same: Buy or be hopelessly out of date.
As in the previous century — wasn’t life so much sweeter then? — most of us ask the question: Do I need this? For some it is not a problem. They are early-adopters, gadget freaks and they buy try anything that is new, stand in line for it before the sun is up. For others, it is a problem of different sort. They have no choice because they can’t afford it.
The rest of us dither, waiting for a push. In the early ’80s, the kids may have per-
suaded us that we needed a VCR. Then the technology did its own pushing. Videotapes were no longer available at the video store, blank tape was hard to fi nd, new VCRs even harder. So it was on to the DVD player. And now, should it be Blu-ray or not? Soon the decision will be made for us, as the non-Blu-ray technology, whatever you call it, dies off.
None of this was clear to us when we made that fi rst investment in a VCR. Nor was it clear to people who invested in cable that some day they would need to invest in still newer equipment and extra charges to watch the sports they wanted, the games being moved further and further up the digital dial by canny cable operators.
The same thing happened with the
switch from LPs to CDs. Die-hard tradition-alists swore that they’d never desert vinyl, until vinyl deserted them. They couldn’t buy records, so the CD player entered the house in the late ’80s. Now the CD player is gathering dust, replaced by digital record-ings downloaded from the Internet.
Downloading from the Internet is some-thing many people swore they’d never do, and are being forced to as more and more CD outlets disappear.
An interesting thing is that we are irri-tated all this, but not made sad. There may be sentimental value attached to books and, for people of a certain age, LPs, but no one feels sentimental about CDs or DVDs. This makes it easier for us to get rid of them as we enter new technologies, thereby feeding the technological beast.
Which continues to bully us. A mid-’80s home computer, still functioning perfectly, has to be replaced in the early ’90s because it can no longer communicate with newer computers. That replacement computer has to be replaced in a couple of years because it lacks the power to grapple with memory-heavy websites, not to mention download the music that can no longer be purchased at the store.
Even those who like being hopelessly out of date don’t have it easy.
Meanwhile, we have to make our deci-sions. Is the printed book really obsolete? Can we fi nd our way without a GPS in the car? Must we Twitter? Do we need Face-book? And always the key question: Do I need this?
We’ve seen in recent weeks some of hor-rible things that can happen on Facebook. We’ve read the stories about people who drove into a swamp because the GPS told them to. And we’ve read Twitter accounts that make the Twitterers look like twits. Do we need it?
Do we get a choice?

The 21st century, whether you like it or not
For a parent, having to bury a child is one of the worst things imaginable.
The reality that a father will not have the opportunity to walk his daughter down the aisle at her wedding or that a mother will not get to hold her fi rst grandchild in her arms are moments that are instantly robbed upon an offspring’s death.
That’s exactly what hap-pened to Stephanie and Luke Richardson – Ottawa Senators assistant coach – when their 14-year-old daughter Daron died from complications from a suicide attempt on Nov. 13.
In what would normally be a very private and sombre time for most families, the Richard-sons decided to go against the
grain and grieve publicly. They are to be commended
for doing so.The Richardsons held a
large memorial service at Scotiabank Place on Nov. 17 to remember their daughter’s life.
It was an event that drew people from Daron’s school, the hockey community and across the city, and exposed some of the private moments of the Richardson family.
But it’s not how they chose to say their fi nal respects to their daughter that was so honourable. It was the message they were trying to relay.
The Richardson attempted to squash the taboo that talking about suicide is wrong. Issues concerning positive mental health have long been pushed
to the background in society – as the public’s yearning for physical wellbeing tends to be priority No. 1 – but with Daron’s death, Stephanie and Luke made sure that didn’t happen.
Coming weeks will certainly not be easy ones for Stephanie, Luke, and their eldest daugh-ter Morgan.
Coming to grips with such a seemingly shocking event will never fully make sense, especially, as Ottawa Senators president Cyril Leeder said, an explanation is unlikely to ever come.
While it may be too late to help Daron, being able to discuss the topic openly might help save someone else in the future.

The Osgoode to Ottawa pathway has some Osgoode village residents con-cerned about a loss of quality of life and they have formed a new group, (the Os-goode Village Resident’s Association), to ban on all motorized traffi c on the path restricting use to cyclists and pedestrians only. Their position is fueling a debate over who can use the pathway.
The central issue is the use of snowmo-biles on the section of the 25 kilometer pathway that is adjacent to homes in the village. The pathway runs from Ottawa to Osgoode. The City of Ottawa will be hold-ing public meetings to determine how the pathways in Osgoode and Prescott–Rus-sell will be used.
“When this project was fi rst announced the city was not going to have public con-sultation,” said Osgoode Ward Councillor Doug Thompson. The result was two pub-lic meetings in 2009 and the creation of a 10-member steering committee to look at the pathway issue.
There are around 30 homes along a kilometer section of the pathway that are affected. The city has agreed to ban motorized vehicles on the $2.173 million pathway at least until 2011. Snowmobiles will be allowed to use it this winter.
George Lalonde is a member of the resident’s association. Lalonde feels that while the pathway is a great addition to the Osgoode area, the use of motorized vehicles on it is not. There are safety con-
cerns especially when a snowmobile or ATV meets a hiker, cross country skier or a family taking a walk on the pathway close to the village.
Another issue is the noise generated by snowmobiles. The residents’ association wants the city to protect the policies that protect pedestrian and active lifestyle programs and facilities in Ottawa as well as protecting the integrity of the new pathway.
The original application by the city, for federal restructuring dollars to build the pathway, included a description of what the pathway was for. Pedestrian and cy-cling use was the description placed on the application.
The funding was given the green light based on that information and the appli-cation was approved in 2009.Now the city has included snowmobilers as users of the path. George Darouze is the president of the Osgoode Carleton Snowmobile Trail Club. He feels that the real issue is about urban sensibilities impacting on a rural community. Councillor Thompson agrees. “There is a difference between urban and rural,” he said, adding, that a one-size-fi ts-all way of thinking does not always work.
Lori Daneliak is the president of the Osgoode Village Community Association. “We wanted the city to do a usage study,” she said after the association heard con-cerns about pathway usage. “We wanted to make sure there was security and that there was no ATV or dirt bikes on the path.” she said.

Men’s national volleyball team helps John McCrae get the lead out
DANIEL NUGENT-BOWMAN
A group of John McCrae Secondary School stu-dents were put through the paces by the Canadian men’s volleyball team on Nov. 18 as part of an ob-jective to reduce adolescent obesity.
The initiative is part of the Heart & Stroke Foun-dation’s Spark Program, which aims to educate youth on how to live a healthy lifestyle to combat obesity. Students were asked to give a $5 donation to the foundation to participate.
The event was organized by the quartet of Grade 10 students – Stephanie Young, Kate Paulson, Brit-tany Wiersema and Pujan Thakrar – as part of civ-ics class project.
Originally the group wanted to organize a Jump Rope for Heart campaign, but when the foundation told them about the volleyball clinic, they quickly changed their minds. The men’s national team works closely with Heart & Stroke Foundation.
“It went really well,” Stephanie said, noting that the event had to be rescheduled multiple times be-cause of planning confl icts. “I was worried that there weren’t going to be a lot of people, but every-one was so enthusiastic.”
More than 150 participants from the school jumped though horizontal ladders, hopped over mini hurdles and jumped rope to wear off some energy. They were then treated to a volleyball skills demonstration by the team, before wrapping up with a quick game.
“It’s amazing the way they can hit it down so
hard,” said Grade 10 student Rebecca Cameron about the players’ kill shots.
While the event was mostly aimed at those need-ing encouragement to exercise more frequently, it was caught the eye of some of the more athletic students, like Rebecca who plays on her school’s hockey volleyball, fi eld hockey and soccer teams.
Since John McCrae has a high-performance ath-lete program – which allows students playing in top-tier extra-curricular leagues to organize their core school subjects around their sports schedules – many athletic types also participated.
“This is such as great opportunity because they get to see these athletes,” civics teacher Debby Molnar said.
Of the eight members from the team who at-tended the event, setter Mike Derocco was one of the more vocal ones. Derocco gave a speech to the students before the workout about the importance of exercising regularly and eating right.
Since the national team moved from Winnipeg to Gatineau in 2009, Derocco said the team has tried to be active in the community. He was impressed by how many students claimed they played on multiple sports teams.
“The more physically active you are, no matter what you do... all helps in the end,” he said.
As the team tries to qualify for the 2012 London Olympics, Derocco had advice for others who are trying to reach the top of their sports.
“If you work hard enough and you have enough talent, you can go as far as you want with any-thing,” he said.

Altshuller excited to compete in Winnipeg
DANIEL NUGENT-BOWMAN
Thanks to some strong play this sea-son – particularly of late – Nepean Raid-ers goaltender Dan Altshuller has been selected to play for Team Ontario at the upcoming 2011 World Under-17 Challenge in Winnipeg.
Altshuller is the only Junior A and CHL player to make the team, which was an-nounced on Nov. 17. The rest of the squad is made up of players from the Ontario Hockey League (OHL).
“It was a big surprise for me, not play-ing in the OHL because most of the play-ers are from there,” he said. “I was re-ally happy to get the call and I’m really excited.”
The team’s director of operations, Rob-ert Kitamura, made fi nal roster decisions for the team.
As director of central scouting for the OHL, Kitamura had the opportunity to watch Altshuller play a lot last year when the goaltender was chosen in the third round of the draft, 45th overall by the Bel-leville Bulls.
“Last year he was one of the top goalies in his age group in the province,” Kita-mura said. “He’s performed as we expect-ed and that’s one of the big reasons why he made the club.”

Continued from page 14Through 23 games with the Raiders as
of Nov. 12, Altshuller is 10-6-6 with a 2.79 goals-against average and a .920 save per-centage. He has also posted one shutout.
The Grade 11 student at Ashbury Col-lege took over the No. 1 role in Nepean when veteran Michel Kowalew sustained a high-ankle sprain in a game against the Kanata Stallions on Oct. 17.
He has taken the ball and run with it, looking more confi dent with each appear-ance. His play has even garnered interest from such NHL teams as the Tampa Bay Lightning and Minnesota Wild, accord-ing to Raiders owner and Altshuller’s father, Bryan.
“It feels like it’s a steady progression,”
Altshuller said of his play this season. “As the year goes along, I’m getting more experienced. The more games I play, I feel like as a team we’re getting better.”
He added he’s been working diligently with Raiders goaltending coach Dean Dorsey with the focus on being more up-right in the net.
During the Winnipeg tournament – which runs from Dec. 29 to Jan. 4 – the 16-year-old will battle with Saginaw Spirit goalie and Mississauga native Jake Pat-erson for the No. 1 role.
Altshuller said whether he’s the start-er or the backup, he’s looking forward to the event and seeing many of the play-ers from the team’s summer evaluation camp, held in Whitby, Ont. last July.
In addition to roommate Matthew Finn – a defenceman with the Guelph Storm – Altshuller is familiar with Alex Gud-branson, former teammate with Ottawa Jr. 67’s last year.
As well, thanks to his time at the Bulls’ training camp, he knows forward Bren-dan Gaunce and head coach Jake Grimes – who works as an assistant in Belleville.
The challenge features fi ve regional teams from across Canada and fi ve inter-national teams from Finland, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Germany and the Unit-ed States.
Team Ontario will in a division against Team Atlantic, Team Pacifi c, Czech Re-public and Slovakia.
Coming off a silver medal last year
and two gold medals before that, Kita-mura said he thinks this team is the best he’s put together in his four years with the program.
“I think this could be one of our most complete teams top to bottom,” he said. “Looking at the composition of our team, myself and the coaches are real, real excited with the group we’ve got to work with.”
A little added expectation doesn’t con-cern Altshuller one bit. The goaltender said the goal is always the same.
“There’s always pressure on Ontario because we put out such great teams,” he said. “I use it more as motivation to live up to expectations and try our best to win.”

The Nepean Raiders (13-11-6) gave the Brockville Braves (20-5-3) a little taste of their own medicine.
After taking one on the chin from the defending RBC Cup semifi nalists 7-3 in Brockville two nights before, the Raiders convincingly knocked off the Braves 4-1 at the Nepean Sportsplex on Nov. 21.
In what was a complete reversal from the previous CHL matchup where the Brockville scored two goals in the game’s fi rst 2:15, it was the Raiders who came out strong at home.
Nepean led the game 2-0 after the fi rst period thanks to goals by Kenneth Neil and Craig Cowie and remained it control the rest of the way.
“It’s always good when you beat one of the top teams,” Raiders head coach and general manager Peter Goulet said. “They’re a hard working team. If you don’t show up, they’ll beat you, just like they did on Friday.”
In one of their most complete games of the season, the Raiders used a simple formula to knock off the Braves.
The home side was relentless on the puck, wearing down the Braves’ defence on the forecheck with hard hits along the
boards. They crashed the net on every opportunity they could, which directly accounted for rebound goals by Cowie, Marc-Olivier Guertin, and Devin Stuerm-er – who scored his fi rst as a Raider – on Braves goaltender Justin Gilbert.
Dan Altshuller once again stood tall in the Raiders’ net, making 37 of 38 possible saves. Whenever he did let out a rebound, his defencemen were there to clear them quickly. Braves defenceman Mike Baird spoiled Altshuller’s shut-out bid when he beat him with a rocket midway through the third.
Once Baird scored, the Braves got a lit-tle life, and had the opportunity to make
the game close in the fi nal minutes with an extended fi ve-on-three chance.
But Altshuller stood tall and came up with a handful of timely saves.
“It starts with Dan Altshuller in net,” Goulet said. “Dan did a great job re-bounding (after the Nov. 19 game). Your goaltender has to be your best penalty killer and he was tonight.”
Braves owner and head coach Todd Gill felt special teams were the differ-ence in the game.
“Our power play was awful tonight,” he said. “Our penalty kill looked awful because of the defl ections on three shots.They deserved what they got tonight.”
Raiders return the favour with convincing win over Brockville

Holiday tips for new moms (NC)—Having a newborn anytime, but especially around the holidays, doesn’t have to be stressful. First-time moms should be able to focus on their baby’s fi rst exciting encounters with family and friends, and create holiday traditions without worrying about how they look or if the house is tidy. For those fi rst-time moms who are seeking some tips on how to shine this holiday season, the following are some helpful hints:• Moms don’t always get the sleep they deserve and need. Make your skin glow by creating a saline solution with a little salt or baking soda mixed into lukewarm water. Pour the solution into one nostril with your head tilted. This method is used in spas internationally to help women rejuvenate tired-looking skin. • Feel great in your favourite dress, and celebrate the changes your new body is experiencing. There are many
products that can help enhance your womanly shape, while other products eliminate the potential for awkward situations. For instance, Philips new AVENT eco-friendly breast pads offer moms protection from embarrassing leaks and stains. A dependable item like this will help you worry less about how you look and let you enjoy the party more. • Need some well deserved down time? Enlist a grandmother, friend or babysitter to take care of your baby for an afternoon, so you have time away from the house to do some holiday shopping, and enjoy a cinnamon latté. With so many added stresses during this time of year, there is no need to let anything get in the way of enjoying time with your baby during their fi rst holiday season. Just adding a few items to your wardrobe and using some innovative beauty tips will help you feel confi dent as you ring in the New Year.

If he is an athlete, look for spe-cial features like a waterproof casing and heart rate monitor that he can use for sports. • iPod docking stations con-tinue to be one of the biggest sellers for electronic stores across the country. Long gone are the days of the big stereo with all the pieces and acces-sories. Today’s modern man needs sleek and simple. Be sure to look online at Best Buy, Future Shop and Apple.ca for
the best sellers. • A state-of-the-art electric shaver is always welcome holi-day gift. If he likes a smooth, clean shave, consider the new line of SensoTouch 3D shavers from Philips.

NUTTALFashion has not always taken high priority
with Kaitlyn. Growing up, she was all about
sports, with baseball and hockey dominating
her life.
This vibrant 19 year old got hooked
on ‘America’s Next Top Model’ and
took a whole new look at the world
of modeling. Thoughts of fun and
traveling started to take hold in
Kaitlyn’s mind, so she pursued her
new career choice with a vengeance.
Although her dream was a lot more work
than Kaitlyn originally anticipated, she is
having the time of her life in this highly
competitive industry.
This 5’9” blue eyed, brown-haired
beauty will soon be off to Germany
and Switzerland for creative new
photo shoots.

The curtain rises at Russell High School Nov. 24 for “Nurse Jane Goes to Hawaii”, a funny farce depicted by a cast of wacky characters, performed by The Russell Association for the Performing Arts.
Directed by Brian Kennedy, a retired drama and English teacher from Ottawa-Carleton District School Board, the play explores mistaken identities, love affairs and action scenes and runs through Sat-urday, Nov. 27.
Award-winning, Canadian playwright, Allan Stratton has developed this show for the RAPA’s cast of seven who will move through the fast-paced play deliver-ing fun and laughs to all in attendance.
“Nurse Jane Goes to Hawaii” has mo-ments of a tropical cy-clone, a syringe of deadly microbes and wrestling on the edge of a volcano. It was fi rst produced by Toronto’s Phoenix The-atre in October 1980, about Vivien Bliss, an author of Harlequin ro-mances, who sets out to spend an illicit weekend with Edgar Chisholm, a respectably married school teacher.
This kick starts a chain of events that in-volve all the classic ele-ments of farce.
The hilarious story progresses with increas-ing frenzy as Vivien tries to get her new novel fi n-ished in spite of an ad-
vice columnist, a nosey reporter, a doctor in pantyhose, an orphan with a cake and her evil editor.
All the actors’ characters have multi-ple names, roles and relationships both in the play and in Vivien’s novel, almost necessitating pen and paper just to keep track of who is with whom. They in-clude: Manotick resident Anne Peterson as Doris Chisholm and advice columnist Cloris Bienfait; Jim Jeffcott as teacher Edgar Chisholm; Elizabeth Ferguson as Harlequin novelist Vivien Bliss; Bill Mc-Innis as dermatologist Bill Scant; Barba-ra Inglis as reporter Peggy Scant; Rory Dafoe as orphan Peter Prior and Kerrie Whitehurst as editor Betty Scant.
In addition, Manotick resident Jane Brownrigg, a RAPA veteran involved in many aspects of local theatre since 1993 including acting, directing and produc-ing, is the stage manager.
Tickets are $15 for adults; $12 for stu-dents/seniors and are available from Pronto, Foodland and Stella’s Touch Spa in Russell, or by calling Kathy McKenzie at 613-445-1109.
Doors open at 7 pm, and the show starts at 7:30 pm. Visit www.rapa.ncf.ca.
