    EMC sports - It was a white-knuckle fi nish during the Ottawa Power Wheelchair Hockey Leagues annual fund-raising game against a team comprised of local celebrities on April 6.

    With only 46 seconds left to go in the fi nal period, Mo-ses Olong with the OPWHL Sharks tied the game with the Celebrities 5-5, while earning himself a hat trick.

    But the Celebrities took the game in a double shootout, winning 6-5, thanks to Todd Nicholson, a three-time medal winning Canadian Paralympic Sledge hockey player.

    EMC news - The Strandherd Arm-strong bridge will come in on bud-get, but it likely wont be on time, said Gloucester-South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches.

    The $48-million project was de-layed when the original contractor went into receivership last March.

    Work has also been delayed be-cause the welding didnt meet city specifi cations.

    There are really stringent tests, us-ing things like ultrasound, Desroches said, adding engineers have told him its not uncommon for the welding to be done, tested and redone.

    The bridge over the Rideau River between Strandherd Drive and Earl Armstrong Road and each of the three bridge arches is composed of 10 pieces that must be welded together.

    We wont sacrifi ce residents safe-

    ty for a photo op, Desroches said, adding residents would be apprised of the new completion date sometime this month.

    The original completion deadline was Aug. 31. With the delays it could be months later.

    The city holds a $23-million per-formance bond on the project and any penalties would be the responsibility of the bonding company. Delays will cost the bonding company $5,000 per day.

    Desroches said the city is putting pressure on the contractor to fi nish the work because the bridge is central to the citys transportation master plan.

    Light-rail construction could be delayed if there arent the proper de-tours in place, he said.

    Despite the ticking clock, there were still be a delay.

    Its unlikely we will be able to make up the time by cutting other ar-eas, Desroches said.

    FILEGloucester South Nepean Coun. Steve Desroches said residents will have wait until later this month to learn when the Strandherd-Armstrong Bridge will be completed.

    Bridge completion date still up in the air

    Students shine at Ottawa Regional Science Fair

    Jessica [email protected]

    EMC news - More than 325 students from all over the city took part in the Ottawa Regional Science Fair on Saturday, April 6, at Carleton University.

    With more than 200 proj-ects representing more than 40 schools, the judges had their work cut out for them.

    The quality is pretty im-pressive, said committee co-chair Jovan Groen. Weve got a great fair this year.

    Students in grades 7 to 12 competed in the elds of sci-ence and engineering in ju-nior, intermediate, senior, and special awards categories. The 2013 edition marked the 52nd year of the science fair.

    Theyre excited to share here, said Groen.

    Grade 7 students Emma Jones, 13, and Tanya Nguyen, 12, from Ashbury College in east Ottawa did a project on the cleanliness of their school by examining various sur-faces.

    We wanted to see if our school was a safe environ-

    ment, said Emma. We found that we didnt

    have a lot of dangerous bacte-ria but we did have mould on our desks, added Tanya.

    The solution was to wipe down the desks more often.

    Grade 11 students Alexa Rious, 17, and Makayla Rop-er, 16, from All Saints Catho-lic High School in Kanata, wanted to develop a water lter that could be made from resources found in Third World countries.

    The result was a multiple-layer lter comprised of cloth, gravel, sand, charcoal,

    cat grass and corn husks.They can easily make

    good lter and puri cation systems, said Alexa, adding the judges were impressed the entry.

    Manoticks Nasib Al Karmi, a Grade 7 student at Abraar School in Bayshore, made a vehicle that cleans snow off solar panels.

    He noticed that his neigh-bour had to clear the snow off his solar panels with a rake during the winter months.

    I found out through my research just an inch of snow can shut down the whole sys-

    tem, said Nasib. He found glass that could

    protect the panels so the ve-hicle wouldnt damage them.

    The glass does not affect the ef ciency, he said, add-ing the weight of the vehicle would determine what kind of glass would be used.

    Amar Abdisamed, a Grade 8 student at Ottawa Islamic School in west Ottawa, cre-ated a project on how to cure cancer with nanotechnology.

    The Sandy Hill resident lost his grandfather to brain cancer and his uncle to lung cancer.

    I wanted to use my edu-cation (to) nd a cure, said Amar. (Nanotechnology) can help any stage of cancer be-cause it completely destroys the tumour without affecting the healthy cells surrounding the diseased area.

    CANADA WIDE SCIENCE FAIR

    Eleven projects were se-lected to compete in the Can-ada Wide Science Fair from May 11 to 18 in Lethbridge, Alta.:

    Nicholas Chodura, from

    Turnbull School, with his project 175,000 tons: Can it just disappear?

    Catherine Beaudin, from Franco-Ouest French Catho-lic high school with her proj-ect High Ef ciency Solar Thermal Collector.

    Danilla Xing, from Bishop Hamilton Montessori School, with her project Lace It Up.

    Ishaan Dhillon, from Bishop Hamilton Montessori School, with Age of the Phage 2.0.

    Tahir Shamji, from Turn-bull School, with How Strong are your Clothes?

    Arianna Skirzynska and Samantha Bulchand, from All Saints Catholic High School, with their project Zombie Cells; Fact or Fiction.

    Amit Scheer, from Colo-nel By Secondary School, with Overproduction of Reac-tive Oxygen Species in Mito-chondria: A Principal Cause of Cancer.

    Brian Laight, from All Saints Catholic High School, with his project A Sindbis Vi-rus short-hairpin RNA Screen to Increase Virus Replication in Cancer Cells.

    Adamo Young, from Lis-gar Collegiate Institute, with Emerging Fusarium chemo-types: Threats to Crop Pro-duction.

    Daphnee Dubouchet-Olsheski, from Elmwood School, with Development of an Aptamer-based MRI Con-trast Agent for Thrombin De-tection.

    Eleven will compete in Canada-wide contest

    JESSICA CUNHA/METROLANDGrade 7 student Hawa Ali-Rage from Ottawa Islamic School shows off her project on which citrus fruit has the most vitamin C. Hawa, who lives in Billings Bridge, tested oranges, lemons, tangerines, grapefruits and clementines. Hawa discovered that tangerines have the most vitamin C.

    Street Sweepers

    The City of Ottawa has commenced city wide street sweeping operations and city crews will be working around the clock to remove debris and materials that have accumulated over the winter. Sweeping operations will include daytime and nighttime work and will cause some noise and dust. The City is working as quickly as possible to reduce the impact and appreciates residents patience during this time.

    For more information about street cleaning schedules and operations please visit Ottawa.ca or call 3-1-1.

    Leaf and Yard Waste

    Residents are reminded that leaf and yard waste is collected weekly. Leaf and grass clippings should be placed in compostable paper bags, their own garbage can, or cardboard boxes for pick up. Alternatively you may choose to put these items in your green bin. Tree branches must be bundled when placed out for collection.

    To avoid pick up problems make sure that your yard waste is clearly identiable and separate from your regular recycling and garbage. For more information please visit Ottawa.ca or call 3-1-1.

    Its the time of year again where I start to get ready for my annual Fifty-Five Plus Afternoon Tea! Every year, I host a tea in June to celebrate the contributions of residents 55 years and older in our community. If you are a resident and would like to be added to this years invitation list or if your contact information has changed, please contact my ofce at 613-580-2480 or [email protected]. Please note that due to the popularity of this event, seating is limited.

    Springing Forward

    The City of Ottawa has begun its spring-cleaning operations. Over the next several weeks City crews will be out repairing, cleaning and maintaining Ottawas paved roads, sidewalks and parkland. The Spring Clean-up Program includes grading of gravel roads and shoulders, asphalt patching, cleaning up litter and winter debris, park maintenance, grafti removal, and tree planting and maintenance.

    City crews will also be repairing damage to lawns and other plantings due to snow clearing. If your lawn was damaged by a city plow please call 3-1-1 and register your concerns. Repairs will be done in May and June and include putting down top soil and grass seed where required.

    First I was nervous because I wasnt that good at being a forward, said Sicoli. But then I started to believe and now Im like a pro.

    It was 19-year-old Chris Pa-vones third game. The Algon-quin College marketing student, who lives in Barrhaven, said hed played baseball before but never hockey. After learning about the OPWHL from friends, he gave it a shot.

    Its just something fun, its something new, said Pavone, who plays for the Sharks.

    Dino Giannetti, a resident of Katimavik, and Hollis Peirce, from the downtown Bank Street area, helped create the Ottawa league, which has grown to 25 players in four years.

    Peirce got the idea to create the OPWHL after moving from Calgary, where he played hock-ey in a wheelchair league since he was 11 years old.

    We nally got enough mo-mentum going, said the now 25-year-old Peirce about get-ting the league on the court. It allows any type of ability to play against each other. It really evens the playing eld.

    Peirce plays defence for the

    Ottawa Capitals and the Sharks. The league is open to people

    of all ages and abilities, with players as young as eight and older than 60.

    Thats the great thing about wheelchair hockey; it doesnt matter your age. Anyone can play, said Peirce, adding its a social event as much as a hockey game.

    Its great, the success weve had, added Giannetti, 25, who plays goalie and defence for the Sharks and Ottawa Capitals.

    WORKOUT

    Aside from Olong, Roddey Hard scored two goals for the OPWHL.

    Celebrities Tyson Hinz and Justin Shaver, both Carleton Ra-vens basketball players, morn-ing show host Jeff Hopper, Ot-tawa 67s goalie Jacob Blair and Nicholson, scored for their team.

    The celebrities took to the court in manual wheelchairs, so controlling the ball and the chair at the same time was dif cult, said Shaver, who is studying psychology and social work at Carleton.

    Many of the celebrity play-ers used their feet to propel the

    wheelchairs so they could ma-neuver the chair and hockey stick at the same time.

    Its a workout, said Hinz, a commerce student at the univer-sity. Hopefully well be asked back (next year).

    The game was held in the Norm Fenn Gym on the Carleton University campus where the OPWHL hosts training every Sunday as a fundraiser for

    the upcoming Canadian Power Hockey Championships this August in London, Ont. It costs around $11,000 for the travelling team to participate, said Peirce.

    The OPWHL was established by Carleton University students in 2009 for players who use wheelchairs and have limited upper body strength or mobility.

    With fi les from Eddie Rwema

    Wheelchair league grows to 25 players

    JESSICA CUNHA/METROLANDThe Gators Roddey Harb scores on Celebrities goalie Coun. David Chernushenko. The Ottawa Power Wheelchair Hockey League took on a group of local celebrities for its second annual fundraising game on April 6. The Celebrities eked out a 6-5 win in a double shootout.

    In Ottawa, even the good news is some-what mysterious. Take, for example, the word that the city is looking for submis-sions from engineering consultants on ways to improve Queen Street, so that it will be nice to walk along in a few years when light rail is running underneath it.

    The mysterious part: how could anyone think that Queen Street can be improved in any way other than blowing it up and starting over again?

    The Citizen article on the Queen Street study contained the usual allusions to plant-ing more trees and widening sidewalks and adding benches, but hey. Theres no retail on Queen Street, hardly a restaurant and lots of ugly glass buildings. You think wider side-walks is going to help much?

    Two years ago, on a Saturday afternoon in April, Tyler Brl, the former Ottawan turned London magazine tycoon, was wandering around downtown. Heres his description, in the Financial Times, of what he saw:

    The street was littered with soggy bits of rubbish; some shops were out of business; almost every offi ce tower had a lease sign in the lobby window and it was eerily deserted. I walked a few blocks hoping the urban landscape would improve but the few retail

    outlets that were open felt tatty and tired, the streets were buckling and full of potholes and every other block was punctuated by a vacant property, an empty parking lot and restaurant closed for business, permanently.

    Not a bad description and it obviously made an impression, because Brl was invit-ed back to Ottawa, where he spent two years in the 80s going to Nepean High School, to give a public talk as part of an ideas project to improve the city.

    For reasons understandable to those who deal with famous people, the deal fell through and the organizers are now looking for another expert. The vision of bringing someone to give us some advice is still on the table, Coun. Mathieu Fleury told the Citizen. We want to bring someone with that kind of

    profi le.As the old saying goes, an expert is some-

    one from out of town. Too many cities get their reputation from the guy who spends two days there and writes an analysis based on the airport, the personality of the taxi driver who brings him from the airport, the hotel, two restaurants near the hotel, the street the hotel is on and the taxi driver who takes him back to the airport.

    A guy who walked around the Glebe or the Market, rather than Queen Street, would have a different assessment of Ottawa. A guy who stayed in Ottawa South or Kanata would think differently from a guy who stayed at the Westin.

    Which is not to say that Queen Street is not awful. It is. Its just that we dont need to pay someone to tell us that. Many of the problems that plague our city are obvious to anyone who lives here and dont require expert advice.

    If you want a vibrant Queen Street, put some stores on it. For those stores to thrive they need customers, people who live down-town. That means apartment buildings instead of offi ce buildings. People have known this for decades, people who are not from out of town.

    Persuading business and government to do anything about it is, and always has been, the problem. It costs money.

    As time passes without anything being done people learn to live without downtown. They have their neighbourhood stores and restaurants, if they are lucky enough to have that kind of neighbourhood. If not, they have the nearest mall, where there are stores and the parking is free and easy to fi nd. If Queen Street is awful, it ceases to matter to a lot of folks.

    And that makes it harder to fi nd the will to fi x it. Maybe this time will be different.

    Fixing Queen Street, and other Ottawa fantasies

    Asking a lot of children

    COLUMN

    Students at a school in Barrhaven will launch a hiring guide for local businesses this week.The Grade 4 students put a lot of work into their product, meeting with more than 30 local business managers to fi nd out what hiring tools they currently use.

    The kids have since compiled a hiring guide, which will soon be for sale, with proceeds to Big Brothers, Big Sisters.

    The goal was to develop something that would help people in the community and the hiring guide could help connect job-seekers with prospective employers.

    The project was developed with help from the Learning Partnership, a national non-profi t organi-zation that promotes the public education system in Canada.

    The organization is participating in similar proj-ects at 240 schools.

    By working on the guide, students got a taste of teamwork and the value of all the steps in the busi-ness process, say organizers.

    Encouraging entrepreneurial spirit in youngsters is a good idea, but its also reasonable to ask if maybe were expecting our kids to grow up a little

    too soon. There will be time to learn marketing and

    project management in high school or at college or university, all before those skills can ever be honed in the real world.

    Grade 4 is too early for students to choose a future educational goal or career. Its not clear what skills a nine or 10-year-old might develop today that will be of value when they enter the workforce.

    Sampling many careers might be a better use of the kids time than carrying out one intensive project.

    Parents of any kids involved in the Learning Partnership programs should share their thoughts with teachers, principals and school board trustees. It would be interesting to know if the parents think their kids time was well spent, especially if there was follow-up years later to see if a Grade 4 student went on to bigger things and was inspired or prepared in part by the Learning Partnership program.

    Without that information over the long term, its impossible to say if learning business skills at a young age is the right course or if kids should just be kids for a little longer.

    EDITORIAL

  • Ive written a lot about the overweight and obesity epidemic thats plaguing us. But Ill admit, even as I touted the importance of engaging with nature, getting more daily exer-cise, and eating a healthy diet, I was tipping my own scale. By two pounds, I am now offi cially overweight again.

    While post-baby fat and lack of a good nights sleep has made me somewhat self-forgiving, Ive decided to put my money where my mouth is (although maybe putting things in my mouth isnt really the answer).

    But here it is: I have vowed to lose 20 pounds by autumn. The problem is gaining weight is much easier than losing it. Assuming all calories are created equal which theyre not one pound of body fat is equivalent to approximately 3,500 calories. To put it in perspective, if you ate a Quiznos brownie every day, youd gain a pound a week.

    If you have been eating Quiznos brownies every day at and you stop, you may lose a pound. Sounds easy, right?

    Not exactly. The thing is you have to maintain your calorie defi cit over time, which means its not just a matter of what you eat, but also what you do.

    Saying that, I defi nitely think the fi rst few pounds can be shed by eliminating a couple of staple foods from my diet: coffee and wine.

    I realized I can cut about 600 calories, on average, per day, just by giving up the tall boys I drink each morning for creative inspira-tion. I dont like black coffee Im more of a double-double kind of gal. I worked it out that Im taking

    in about 500 calories per day be-tween the sugar and cream in my coffee. Easy fi x.

    The second one is a little harder wine. I have spent this long winter pretending to be an amateur connoisseur of red wine. Unfortunately, alcohol has effect of slowing your metabolism until it clears your system. How sad is that? And there are three other distinct problems with my winter posing as a sommelier: there is a fi ne line between connoisseur and alcoholic; a glass of red wine contains about 85 calories (and thats a small glass ahem); and the fact that I really know very little about wine was discovered when I failed to pronounce Syrah at a recent meeting of the minds and that I had no idea that Shiraz and Syrah were the same thing. So besides the calorie defi cit of, on average, up to 150 per day, losing wine will help me regain my reputation as an intelligent dinner guest.

    At the end of the day, losing weight will come down to the amount of exercise I can squeeze in between my hours of writing. Despite all my blather earlier this year, Ive decided to forgo trendy exercises and take up walking.

    It sounds crazy, right? How many pounds can you shed by putting one foot in front of the other? But Ive had a lot of success with walking in the past. For one, its totally manage-able. The biggest hurdle, really, is getting my shoes on and getting out without making excuses. When I do get out, I tend to walk really fast almost at a jogging pace. Its not as effi cient as running, so you have to do more of it. But 60 minutes of brisk walking per day should help me burn about 200 calories. Strap a 20-pound baby to my front and maybe Ill get an extra 35 calories out of the deal.

    Doing the math, the dietary changes plus the exercise equates to subtracting about 5,900 calories per week. I could lose 50 pounds per year! Not too shabby, huh?

    Of course, once the wine and cof-fee are out of my system, I may have to consider giving up bread and but-ter ... and maybe cheese, or taking up Zumba. But thats another topic.

    EMC News Faith has led a former player with the Capital City FC to West Virginia where he will hit the pitch this season for the Kings Warriors, a Christian soccer club.

    Odaine Demar fi nished the previous season with Kingston FC after playing a handful of games for Gamla Upsala Sportklubb, a second division professional soccer team in Sweden.

    He was forced to return to Canada after he was unable to obtain a work visa in Sweden.

    Upon fi nishing the season with Kingston, he prepared for a return to Europe, where he had several opportunities including in Sweden, by training with the West Ottawa Soccer Club.

    But Demar chose to forego his opportunities in Europe and return to North America after re-ceiving an e-mail from the Kings Warriors.

    They seemed like my best option because of what they offered me both as a player and spiritually, said Demar, who had originally contacted the Warriors after feeling he was ne-glecting his faith while playing professionally in Sweden.

    I had a lot of time to think back on my year and I felt my faith was weakening which led to me doing some research on the Warriors, he said.

    The Kings Warriors are located in Southern West Virginia and compete in the United Soc-cer Leagues Premier Development League, a league that includes the Ottawa Fury.

    There are some very good players in the league but I know what I am capable of when I work hard, so if I assert my self imme-

    diately I will have a good season he said.Although Demar will be able to develop his

    talent with the West Virginian team, it was their religious work that made them appealing, he said.

    We try to win all the games that we can, but get out into the community to give the good news of Jesus Christ, said Tim Donelli, who works media relations for the Warriors. He said about 90 per cent of their players are Christian.

    The players, who study the Bible and pray together, often speak in churches and help out in the community.

    The club works in tandem with Countryside Baptist Church in Forest Hill, West Virginia.

    A big focus is on serving and helping others in the community, said Donelli.

    I feel this teaches us that the main focus is not on winning games but giving back, help-ing others and improving as men of God, said Demar.

    Its a blessing, he said, I was born into the church. I still have very

    fond memories of going to church every Sun-day as a little kid in Jamaica with my grand-mother.

    Being a pro athlete and staying religious is very challenging but fi nding a place where I can focus on both makes playing the game even more enjoyable, he said.

    Demar said he will continue to work until he is given a chance at playing for Canadas na-tional team and plans to return to Europe after the completion of this season.

    I hope to continue playing and having an impact on and off the fi eld for a very long time, he said.

    FILEOdaine Demar, a former member of the Capital City FC, will be playing this year with the Kings Warriors in West Virginia, a Christian based soccer club.

    EMC news The Heron Park Community Association is holding a quiz night to help raise funds to sup-port their quest for a new community centre.

    The event will be held at OBriens Pub starting at 7 p.m., on April 14.

    We dont have a community cen-tre as such. We just have a fi eld house in Heron Park that is very small and limited in its use, said James McLar-en, president of the association.

    The association has challenged other community associations in Capital Ward and Coun. David Cher-nushenkos offi ce to bring teams to compete against them.

    It is extremely generous of the other community associations to par-ticipate as well as extremely sporting to go up against our own skilled con-tingent, said James.

    Teams of three to six people will compete in a trivia competition for prizes and, more importantly, brag-ging rights as the Trivia Masters of Heron Park.

    Chernushenkos said he has al-ready entered his team and will be competing and supporting the cause.

    The association recently created a charitable organization to raise funds for the centre, so that people can make donations and receive tax

    receipts.We need a better facility in the

    area. Many distant suburban areas have a lot better quality community amenities than we do and we feel that the city should be stepping up and provide those services to our neigh-bourhood as well, said McLaren.

    In fall 2011, Heron Park resi-dents began working with a group of Carleton University architecture students to do a demographic study of residents in the area and discuss with them their needs and wishes for a renovated centre.

    Originally, the centre was built to serve as changing rooms for baseball teams, according to the Heron Park Community Association website.

    The needs of the surrounding communities have since outgrown that simple purpose.

    Currently, the centre is shared be-tween the city and residents to run different programs.

    We are getting more interest from groups in the area to have local space that they can rent for regular use, said McLaren.

    Lack of funding is certainly an ob-stacle, but McLaren hopes they can raise enough money to make the city consider replacing the existing build-ing instead of renovating it.

    The design of the building is probably not practical to have it im-proved, he said.

    It would be less expensive to just start over.

    He added that the kind of facility that they are hoping for would cost somewhere around the neighbour-hood of $1.5 to 2 million.

    We as community dont need to raise that much money, what we need to do is to show that we are ready to make a commitment, show-ing that we are serious about it, said McLaren.

    While there is a sense of optimism within the community, McLaren said people are a little skeptical about the city stepping up at the moment and are looking for some evidence that the city is going to be involved.

    Chernushenko said the project has been identifi ed as one of the priori-ties in need of funding in his ward, but admitted it is very hard to move a long.

    It is quite a high priority but ev-erybody wants one. The project is currently down near the bottom of the list in terms of city infrastructure projects, said Chernushenko.

    He was also of the view that the current facility is not something worth putting another penny into, and supports having a new centre at the site.

    The lack of a true gathering space for programs to be run, in a way holds back the community spirit and participation, he said.

    If there is no where central to go, it is hard to get a lot of people to things.

    Tickets are $15 each and are avail-able by emailing [email protected] or by calling James McLaren at 613 526-2680.

    Heron Park quiz night to raise money for community centre

    EDDIE RWEMA/METROLANDHeron Park residents say they think this little brick building at 1560 Clover St., has outlived its usefulness and they are looking forward to building a much larger community centre.

    Nominate an Outstanding Resident for the Order of Ottawa

    I would encourage residents to nominate an outstanding resident for the Citys new Order of Ottawa award. The Order of Ottawa recognizes outstanding residents who have made significant contributions to the city through their professional accomplishments in any of the following areas: arts and culture, business, community service, education, public service, labour, communications and media, science, and sports and entertainment.

    Nominations for the Order of Ottawa can be completed online at ottawa.ca. Nomination pamphlets are also available at local community centres, Ottawa Public Library branches or Client Service Centres. The deadline for submission of nominations is September 13, 2013. More information regarding the Order of Ottawa can be found online at www.ottawa.ca/orderofottawa.

    City Maintains Triple A Credit Rating

    I am pleased to advise residents that Moodys Investors Services, an internationally recognized credit rating agency, has once again confirmed a AAA credit rating and stable outlook for the City of Ottawa. This rating is a significant benefit as it helps the City to obtain the lowest possible interest rates.

    Moodys bases its rating on the Citys history of prudent financial management, low debt burden, strong reserve position and stable economic base. Moodys also indicates that the rating takes into consideration the strong fiscal outcomes over the past several years, reflecting fiscal discipline and a commitment to long-range financial planning.

    Rain Barrel Sale

    The Canadian Guide Dogs for the Blind and the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority are joining forces to sell rain barrels. Each barrel comes fully equipped with a leaf and mosquito filter, an overflow adaptor (permitting multiple barrels to be connected in series), overflow hose and spigot that attaches directly to a garden hose. Orders are currently being taken for $55 each for pickup on April 20th from 9am-1pm at the Rideau Valley Conservation Authority, 4082 Rideau Valley Drive. You can order your rain barrel online by visiting www.rainbarrel.ca/guidedogs.

    Rain barrels effectively and safely reduce the amount of water running directly into our local city storm sewer, watercourse or lake; they encourage infiltration of precipitation on your property; and they provide a ready, inexpensive source of excellent water for the garden all summer long.

    New LCBO Location Now Open in Riverside South

    I was happy to participate in the Grand Opening of the new LCBO location in the Riverside South community. I am pleased to see the continued progress of the commercial plaza at the corner of Limebank Road and Spratt Road, bringing goods, services, and jobs to a growing community.

    Riverside South Community Gardens.

    Riverside South Community Garden is pleased to once again provide residents with a place to grow there own garden vegetables this summer for residents in South Ottawa.

    The community garden provides a place for area residents to rent a plot of land to grow a garden. There is water service available at each community garden plot and garden sheds are also available to leave garden tools in.

    For more information or to reserve your community garden plot please visit www.rscgardens.ca

    Around the City of Ottawa

    I was pleased to help open the 2013 Canadian Wheelchair Curling Championships which recently took place in the City of Ottawa.

    EMC news - Carleton University has launched a new website to take fundraising to the next level.

    Its fundraising for a social me-dia world, said Ryan Davies, of Carletons department of university advancement. We built the website to refl ect the world we live in

    The site, futurefunder.ca, launched in mid-February and of-fers multiple opportunities to do-nate money to projects and initia-tives at Carleton. Davies said the focus is on advancing teaching and learning at the university, with fo-cus on student aid, student experi-ence, athletics, library or faculty-specifi c initiatives.

    In a nutshell its crowd funding for a university, Davies said. What we have learned about Carleton is there isnt just one opportunity or one need on campus, its everything from research projects to travel aca-demic opportunities that need fund-ing. What we lacked was a way for our donors to see everything at once, to fi nd the projects that refl ect who they are and what they want to ac-complish for themselves. So we thought what if we could put all these opportunities in one place and let people browse?

    Much like the more well-known services Indiegogo and Kickstarter, Futurefunder.ca allows anyone who fi nds a particular project interesting the opportunity to support it.

    Each project has a detailed descrip-tion of what it is, what the needs are and why its important.

    There are currently 14 projects on the website that range from

    helping the MacOdrum Library raise $10,000 to acquire the ar-chives of Taylor & Francis Online Journals to a philosophy exchange program looking to raise $5,000 to help graduate students from India learn at Carleton to raising $2,550 to send a child to Carletons Virtual Ventures engineering and technol-ogy camp.

    Each project accepts donations on-line or by cheque and offer donors a tax receipt. Timelines vary for when each individual project needs to com-plete its funding by, but Davies said the website favours projects with tight timelines that need an immedi-ate funding boost.

    Since launching, a few of the proj-ects have surpassed funding goals in a matter of days. Davies likens this to the ability to share the project details with friends, family and larger social circles.

    Its going well and has becomes less about the browsing and more about the social aspect and I think that is because its more about who is a part of the project, he said.

    The benefi ciary becomes the fundraiser themselves. They tweet and spread the word, and that is where we see the growth and the ability to reach larger crowds.

    The greater goal for the website is for people to support Carleton in a way they never have been able to before, Davies said. The university is one of the few in the country that are taking on this type of crowd-fund-ing.

    In one hand it is about fi nding new supporters, but its also about showing new initiatives for donors to support, Davies said. We hope that more people on campus, faculty and students who have needs and op-portunities that they need funding for will see this as a platform to raise the money.

    For more information about Car-letons new crowd funding website, visit Futurefunder.ca.

    SUBMITTEDThe Antarctic University Expedition at the end of 2013 is one of 14 projects seeking funding on Carleton Universitys new crowd-funding website, Futurefunder.ca. The project funding goal through Future Funders is $10,000. All donations received will be divided equally among the students to reduce their expenses.
