Taking the plunge
Rockland — A number of Oceanside High School East students braved frigid temperatures Sunday, March 2 for a dip in the harbor off Snow Marine Park.
The event was organized to raise money for the school's annual Project Graduation.
Students gathered at the park off Mechanic Street at about 11:30 a.m. At noon, they ran into the ocean, splashed around briefly and hurried back out, to the cheers and applause of teachers, parents and friends.
A Rockland ambulance was on hand for the event.

From teen tears to adult break up
Relevant offers
The emo rockers who played the soundtrack for so much teenage heartache around the world are back with an "adult break up album", having grown up side by side with their fans.
Jimmy Eat World's signature rock and roll has been playing on our airwaves for near two decades, and they have just released yet another album, Damage.
And while it's still the same old Jimmy Eat World fans have come to know and love, drummer, Zach Lind describes the record as "a little different".
"I guess it sounds a bit more raw and natural and rough around the edges. It kinda sounds like it's just us playing in a room," he says.
And the weird thing, is that it is.
The boys gathered at producer, Al Johannes' place, set up, played and recorded then and there. That simple.
"It was really relaxed, his house is full of instruments and stuff and it's just a really musical place.We just kind of had to get out of our comfort zone - we usually record in our home studio which, of course, has its benefits but it also comes with a few down sides.
"After making records in the same place for a while we really wanted to get out and do something different and keep it interesting. This is to capture what we are doing and keep it kind of simplified and I think the one thing is it feels really cohesive, like all the songs belong together."
But the band is the first to admit there's "no huge creative change".
After near 20 years, eight records, and weathering (and inadvertently heading) the coming and going of the "emo" movement, the band's sound hasn't changed much.
And while for critics that may be a bad thing, for fans who were there since the beginning and who lived and loved with the anthems of Bleed American blaring in the background of their break ups, Jimmy Eat World isn't playing it safe so much as doing what they do best.
"It's still very much Jimmy Eat World songs. If you like our previous albums, you will hear things that sound familiar and feel familiar. Just a bit of a different sound. But these songs totally keep to what we do and what we think that we do well."
While admittedly, there are a few tracks on the album which are obviously weaker, it starts out strong with Appreciation, and once you hear I Will Steal You Back, followed by Please Say No, each track afterwards brings back that familiar feeling.
But this is one for the grown ups. An "adult breakup album", which Lind says is one of the band's most lyrically relatable albums.
"Anyone can listen to these songs and get it, because I think everyone has been in one of those situations," he says.
As has always been the way for Jimmy Eat World. So what makes this an adult breakup album? Simple. We all grew up together - the fans and the band.
"I think it probably just happened naturally, you know, we try not to worry too much about what any particular person wants when we are making a record. We just try to pursue the things that interest us and just hope that our fans like it.
"But I mean, we got older. We started this band when we were in our late teens and now we're in our late 30s. Our perspective changes and so does our fans', it just makes sense."
And while this album will appeal to fans by tugging at the same heart strings this band broke and repaired a decade ago, its simple melodies, catchy hooks and Jim Adkins' ever emotive vocals makes it easily accessible to newcomers as well.
A band that can last this long in the music industry without having to re-brand themselves or their music is rare, and these boys aren't taking it for granted.
"It's nice obviously. We love doing what we do and still really enjoy it and enjoy playing together, and I think as we get older we learn to appreciate things more," says Lind.
"When you're younger you're going through the process of being a band, and playing shows and all that. Now we look back on those days and can appreciate them more, we have a more genuine gratitude. It's still hard work, it's just a change in perspective that we have now. If anything its harder now because we're not as young as we used to be," he laughs.
But Jimmy Eat World aren't slowing down. They've just released Damage and they're hitting the road to tour for the record over the next year or so.
And to tide over their fans here in New Zealand, a promise:
"Well, I don't know any dates or anything but I do know we definitely plan to head down your way - if not this year then next year."
Jimmy Eat World's latest album, Damage, is available in New Zealand now.

'It's the first evidence that my family went to Auschwitz': Holocaust survivor gets proof his parents were killed in death camps 70 years ago
- Auschwitz Museum picture revealed truth about Harry Grenville's parents
- His father's name was on a suitcase pictured in the exhibition
- Polish visitor researched images and traced Mr Grenville in Dorset
A Holocaust evacuee has finally had proof that his parents were killed in Auschwitz after a photo of his father's suitcase there was sent to him by a tourist 69 years on.
Harry Grenville, 87, had heard no news of his parents, Jacob and Klara Greilsamer, and grandmother, Sara Ottenheimer, since a message in 1944 said they were being sent 'east' from an internment camp.
He was 18 at the time and suspected this meant they were being sent to the extermination camps in Poland. He never saw or heard from them again.
Now Mr Grenville has been sent a poignant picture of an old suitcase which has been displayed at the Auschwitz Museum for years. It bears the name of his father, Jacob Greilsamer, and a serial number.
This picture of a suitcase belonging to Jacob Greilsamer, confirmed Harry's parents were taken to Auschwitz
Harry (pictured left) waited 69 years to find out the truth about his father, Jacob Greilsamer (pictured right)
The photo was recently taken by a Polish visitor to the museum. He researched the names on the cases and contacted a historical society near Mr Grenville's former home town of Ludwigsburg, near Stuttgart.
The grandfather's details was listed with the group of historians two years ago when three brass memorial stones were unveiled outside the former family home and they have emailed him the photo.
Mr Grenville, who was evacuated to Britain in the Kindertransport refugee mission, said: 'Out of the blue a photograph has turned up of a whole lot of suitcases of victims at the Auschwitz Museum.
'They have the names of the victims painted on them in white and low and behold, there on this photograph is my father's name.
'It was a bit of a shock and my heart did miss several beats when I saw it for the first time.

'This is the first evidence I have ever had that my mother, my father and my grandmother actually arrived at Auschwitz.
'I have carried suspicions with me for a long time and now I have this evidence I feel justified in my suspicions.'
Mr Grenville's family owned a successful packaging company in Germany until it was taken over by a member of the SS in 1938.
In July 1939 he and sister Hannah, who was aged nine at the time, were sent to England and lived with a foster family in Cornwall.
Mr Grenville, who was born Heinz Greilsamer, said: 'My parents knew there was no possible future for any Jewish children in Germany, indeed nearly one million Jewish children died under the Nazis.
'After my sister and I left they applied to emigrate to America but nothing happened.
'They carried on living in Stuttgart until they were taken by the Nazis and sent to an internment camp in Czechoslovakia in 1942.
A history society in Harry's hometown of Ludwigsburg contacted him after a ceremony at his parents' last home
Harry with his mother Klara Greilsamer and newly born sister Hannah in 1928. Hannah is 83 and now lives in New York
'The Red Cross had a system whereby, once a month, we could exchange messages that were no longer than 25 words long.
'In them my parents just said that they were in reasonable health and we just said we were getting on okay at school and were quite happy. It was rather hard.
'In the last message in October 1944 my father stated that they expected to move east. We knew what he meant because east meant the extermination camps in Poland.

'In a way my sister and I had come to expect this news.
'Years later, through a historian, I came to learn that all three of them were on the same transport to Poland.
'I suspect the serial number of 960 on the case was the number of the cattle train that took them to Auschwitz.'
Before the end of the war Mr Grenville had built up such a hatred of his homeland that he volunteered to join the British army.
He added: 'I had a quarrel with the Germans, although I now know it was with the Nazis.'
He didn't get the chance to fight in Europe and served as an interpreter at German Prisoner of War camps in England. He left the army four years later.
He worked as a biology schoolteacher for 34 years and married his late wife Helen in 1950. They have three children and two grandchildren.
His sister, Hannah Robinson, is now aged 83 and lives in New York.
Mr Grenville, who was made a British citizen in 1947, returned to Ludwigsburg for the first time two years ago for the unveiling of the commemorative 'Stumble Stones'.
He said: 'There will never be closure but I take a great deal of comfort from the fact that the second and third generations after the Nazis are trying to bring about reconciliation and a confession of the sins of their forefathers.'
Main gate of Nazi concentration camp Auschwitz
Auschwitz established by Germans in 1940, in the suburbs of Oswiecim, a Polish city that was annexed to the Third Reich by the Nazis.
Initially it was to be a concentration camp similar to others set up by the Nazis since the early 1930s.
It became a death camp in 1942, and it is estimated 1.1 million people were killed there.
The camp was separated into two parts. The first and oldest was established on the site of barracks and held between 15,000 and 20,000 prisoners.
The second part was the Birkenau camp which was the largest part of the Auschwitz complex and held 90,000 prisoners. The Nazis began building it in 1941 on the site of the village of Brzezinka, three kilometers from Oswiecim.
Auschwitz was liberated on January 27 1945 by Soviet troops.
An earlier version of this article mistakenly referred to Auschwitz as a "Polish death camp". We apologise for this error.

Sometimes I wonder about how I react to theater. Who walks out of Titus Andronicus with a huge smile on their face? I do. And my friends do. Of course, I know why I reacted in this manner. Allow me to explain. After the Public Theater's production the other night I was beaming ear to ear in response to the production, not the play. The play itself includes, as many people had told me, literally buckets of blood. But the way that this was handled made me appreciative of the staging without distracting me from the play itself. Last week I talked about how fight choreography can make or break my experience of a production, but this week I would like to talk about the expression of violence on stage.
This week I was reading Sarah Kane's Blasted and remembering my first, and only, experience actually seeing a Sarah Kane play. I was in Ireland, and the production was Phaedra's Love. It was done in the round, and I remember being uncomfortable mostly because I could see several of my friends having violent reactions to the play. I also remember having no concept of whether the production was "good" or not; I honestly couldn't tell. I knew that I did not like the play, which is simply a matter of personal preference. I understand why some people really appreciate this work, and I fully believe that it should be staged, just don't expect me to accompany you to see it.
Part of me reacts negatively to the literal, almost Sesame Street acting out of such violence for two reasons. The first is that I believe that theater is meant to activate our power of imagination, and such representation of a traumatic action is often better evoked imaginatively than literally performed. And also, these moments approach reality, but are themselves always representations of the actions in and of themselves. This last part is particularly important, because I cannot imagine what it would be like for a woman who had actually experienced sexual violence to watch such an act approximated on stage, just as I worry about the psychological effects of the actors performing such actions. I understand that Kane means to reveal the silence on this topic, but there is a specific audience who might actually be traumatized by this theater, which I don't like at all.
What does all of this have to do with Titus Andronicus? Actually, quite a bit. My experience with Phaedra's Love has made me wary of going to see shows that involve a great deal of onstage violence, as I'm more concerned about the affective responses of the audience than the performance itself. Yet, I have to applaud the Public's production precisely because of their responsible approach to the violent subject matter, and their excellent staging of these scenes.
How do they accomplish this? The answer is a continuation of part of my fight choreography discussion from last week, in the sense that it never felt too real. The mechanisms of the staging are revealed early and often, which allows the audience to suspend disbelief to the amount that they feel comfortable doing. Because it was staged in a thrust, I could see the reactions of many of the audience members behind the action. I have never seen so many audience members with hands over their mouths, completely taken in by the emotional affect of the piece.
This led me to say some statements I never thought I would hear myself saying, such as: "They did the rape really well!" Taken out of context, my enthusiasm is suspect... but I was honestly excited by the agency allowed to the audience members to drop in where they felt comfortable, or to remove themselves from the fiction should they not.
I watched with full appreciation of the atrocities happening to Titus and his family, but without becoming so lost in the violence and grief that I was unable to move on. I smiled because their staging was so good, and because, from a theatrical standpoint, buckets of blood and violence can be exciting to watch under the right circumstances. (Another example is Martin McDonaugh's hilarious The Lieutenant of Inishmore staged on Broadway several years ago which used 14 gallons of fake blood every night.) So if you see smiling faces walking out of the doors of the Public Theater after Titus Andronicus, you don't necessarily have to be concerned. Hopefully they're just having a moment of theatrical appreciation for a well staged play, which I encourage you to go and see for yourself.

Travel Troubles
This article was originally published on Australian Business Traveller.
Every airline makes mistakes - admittedly some more than others - and every traveller has been caught out by delays, lost luggage, faulty seats, a borked inflight entertainment systems or other items on the long list of Things That Can Go Wrong.
And when things do go wrong with an airline, it's often difficult to get your problems resolved then and there.
Frontline staffers and cabin crew often lack the authority to sign off on fixing your problem -- or they're just completely swamped with hundreds of other customers in a similar boat to you.
So you're left to complain to the airline.
But how do you maximise your chances of getting what you need? Here's some hard-won advice on how to complain - and get results.
1. When something goes wrong
First off, document whatever's happened. Seat not working or dirty? Outfit stained by a flight crew accident? Luggage problem? Downgraded to economy?
Use your smartphone to snap pictures or even a short video if you can, including the problem and ideally some kind of marker for the date and time. (A clock on the wall? Your watch? A newspaper? Your laptop clock?)
Note down who you first speak to about the problem, what was said, and what the airline said you should do next - and when.
2. Start with the end in mind
Figure out what you want: an apology? Monetary compensation or even a full refund? A credit voucher? Frequent flyer points? Compensation for a hotel stay or emergency necessities? Replacement for a bag or possession that the airline ruined? Something else?
But be realistic: ask around to see what you can reasonably expect the airline to do about it.
3. Keep track of things in one place
It's important to keep track of your dealings with the airline, both for follow-up reasons ("I've spoken to five people since October 4th, and here are their names and what they said") and to save yourself time finding the details for a second call.
So keep track of things in a Word document, a file in Evernote or old fashioned paper.
4. Use the phone
Start off with a phone call, which is the best use of your time: often, problems can be resolved with a call rather than needing to sit down and crank out a stiffly-worded email or letter.
As much as we'd often prefer to start off with an email, most airlines don't do email well, there's almost always an initial barrage of questions, and their online enquiry forms have a frustrating habit of going astray.
Even if you do need to write in, a quick call can ensure you get to the right place and that the initial circumstances of your problem have been logged.
As for Twitter, most times we just wouldn't bother. The standard Twitter response from too many airlines is usually "call our contact centre".
An exception might be if you're overseas and don't want to make a long-distance phone call, and are trying to get the airline to ring you.
5. Make notes before you dial
- Before you dial, make a few quick notes to steer your end of the conversation.
- The number you're calling (for next time, or if you get disconnected)
- The date and time you're calling
- The case number, if you have one (from a baggage problem, say)
- Your flight particulars
- Your frequent flyer number
- Any insurance details you have
A few bullet points of what's happened and what you want: this helps you to articulate your discussion with the agent on the phone
Above all else, remember to keep your cool. Don't just vent your frustration on the poor sod who'll answer your call.
You won't get what you want if you're still angry about things.
6. Start writing when the phone starts ringing
While you're navigating the airline's interactive call menu, jot down:
The time when you started the call
How you reach a real live person (press 4, then 6, then 8, for example)
Who you talked to and in which department
7. Don't hang up without a "next action"
So you've made it through to a real live human and said your piece. Before hanging up, seek agreement with the airline's agent on what happens next. Note down:
What the next step is (for someone to call you back, or for you to put your concerns in writing)
When you should follow up if you haven't heard back
How you'll follow up: direct line? A person-specific address?
The time when you ended the call
8. Be sure to follow up
It's all too easy for things to get lost - and it's in the airline's interests if they don't get back to you with that promised update or a resolution.
So if you're told this is a "check back in two weeks" situation, make a note in your calendar to remind you to follow up. Be persistent and polite and you'll win out in the end.

Haskell reaches deal to bolster interaction with Environmental Protection Agency
So who are you to criticize Haskell and its education program. For many of us, WE have graduated and continued on and received a masters and doctorates degrees from other institiutions. In comparison between institutions there is no difference in education. Haskell prepares any graduate to succeed, its the choice of the student to take advantage or not ,so do not criticize Haskell for the wrong doings of student choices. It is like any other college, and I am very proud that I am a part of the Haskell family. All these comments just reinforce why Native Americans need to be more educated and attend Haskell Indian Nations University because people want to keep us down and it just comes down to ignorance! I am a Lakota Winyan, Strong, and Proud!
Thank you my Haskell family and I love you ALWAYS!!

He was tidy in his appearance and his vehicle was clean, with the company name and contact details clearly displayed on it. I would recommend this trader to others." Customer in Grays

The post Police host senior scam seminar to address sophisticated fraud appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
Toronto Police Det. Const. Kristin Thomas knows fraud when she sees it – she's the sole fraud investigator for 55 Division – but others might not know the tactics scammers use to trick people out of their money.
Frauds are increasingly sophisticated, but most rely on the victim letting their guard down, if only for a moment. She's travelling throughout 55 Division hosting meetings for seniors, often the victim of these types of crimes, so that they can be better equipped to know an attempted fraud when they encounter one.
"Frauds are on the rise," she said. "And there are so many that are affecting our seniors – not just our seniors, but our families, young, it doesn't matter your age. They're evolving."
Thomas detailed some of the most common scams and tactics. Often scammers will call in the middle of the night to catch people off guard, sometimes pretending to be a loved one in trouble who needs money – this is often dubbed "the Grandparent Scam."
Another common scam is the "Lottery Scam", where a caller or letter will say you have won money, and need to cash a cheque – which is fraudulent but looks incredibly real – and send them money before you can collect your winnings.
One scam that has been prevalent in the GTA lately is the CRA scam, with an aggressive caller saying that you owe back taxes.
You will never have to send money to get a gift or winnings in a real lottery, explained Thomas. And no one in an official capacity like the CRA would demand money immediately or in a payment form such as a pre-paid Visa or iTunes gift card.
She said the best thing to do when confronted by a scam caller is to hang up.
"Stay off the phone, don't give them the time of day," she said.
Thomas encourages anyone who has experienced a fraud, or who has questions about how to protect themselves from fraud, to contact her office at 416-808-5507.

The post The man behind the Queen Street hiking sticks appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
A handwritten sign noting "Unique Hiking Sticks" for sale hangs on a green balcony underneath several handcrafted hiking sticks strung from the balcony's roof. Often on the weekend, Bertram will be perched on the balcony crafting the sticks, or chatting with passersby curious about his process.
Retired from a career in the public sector, with a degree in political science, Bertram said making the hiking sticks is a hobby that started about four years ago. He was at his sister's cottage on the Bruce Peninsula, and she had hurt her leg and needed some support for their walk.
"So I cut her a hiking stick, then took an extra one back [to the cottage], started working on them, and enjoyed it," said Bertram, who now travels to his sister's two or three times a year to collect deadfall that he strips there and then brings back here to finish. "You get all sorts of surprises."
Those surprises range from rot inside – in that case, it turns into firewood – to intricate insect work beneath the bark. On one of the finished sticks Bertram showed me, insects had left delicate impressions on the wood that almost looked like Chinese characters – and on another stick, larger grubs had left their mark of a thicker pattern.
Bertram sands and finishes the wood in a simple manner using sandpaper, a dremel to round the handle, and wood varnish to draw out the natural highlights. In one piece, he amplified the juxtaposition between an inner layer of dead wood and an outer layer of new wood that had grown around the dead wood, by making the new layer extra shiny, and keeping the old wood more dull. While some might carve into or warp the wood, Bertram's process keeps it simple and lets nature do the embellishing.
He said he enjoys finding out some of the history of the wood – woodworking runs in his family, with his father being a craftsman, so he has worked with wood all of his life. His sticks come in all types – pine, cedar, "cranky" – and popular – ironwood. He said people enjoy the dark ones more – why, he isn't sure – and he thinks the majority of his customers are buying them for art rather than walking sticks.
"I suspect that most people buy them just as works of art," he said. "A few people will use them, and they are useful in rough woods."
Of his roughly three dozen customers a year – that's about all he is interested in making, as it is a hobby – many come upon him while he is sitting on his balcony, either working or taking in the sights of Queen Street. A Beacher since 1979, he moved into these apartments several years ago after selling his house.
His balcony is "marvelous at Jazz [festival]," he said. "Have a glass of wine, the band's right there. Or Easter parade or marathon, you just sit out here and enjoy it."
And the million dollar question: Does he use a hiking stick when out in the woods?
"You're damn right I do," he said, smiling. "It's actually pretty plain."

The post Notre Dame grad becomes singing Ambassador appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
Notre Dame grad and current Centennial College music student Erin Horan is singing with the Waterfront BIA's Singing Ambassadors this summer. The program features eight talented young people bringing life via song to the central city's lakeside streets.
"It's a really cool job, actually," said 20-year-old Horan.
The vocal position began in mid-June, and Horan and her seven musical co-workers started their summer stint by serenading the Toronto Artisan Market. They will split into two quartets to sing 10 a capella tunes in busy spots along Queen's Quay and the surrounding area, as well as helping direct visitors.
Horan is studying in Centennial's Music Industry Arts and Performance program, focusing both on singing – she previously only trained on guitar – and on the business side of the music business.
While she has been performing for the past few years, the Ambassador gig offers some experience in the discipline of singing professionally, having to belt out tunes daily while keeping her voice in good shape.
Horan's current plans are to finish her last year of school and find work as a mixing engineer at a recording studio, while also working on her own music, a mix of indie and pop songs.
"My hope that I'm slowly inching toward right now is releasing my own album and seeing where that takes me," she said.
While waiting for the album, anyone interested in checking out what the shoreline looks like west of the Beach, and hearing some catchy tunes while they're at it, can swing by the central waterfront. The Singing Ambassadors will be performing at various locations and times from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., Thursday through Monday every week this summer.

The post Cleaning up park a rewarding experience for East End neighbourhood booster appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
"It kind of caught me off guard," he said, noting that he had originally felt honoured when he thought he'd only been nominated.
The award was handed out at Community Centre 55's annual general meeting on June 7. The organization's board and management decided to honour someone each year who makes positive improvements to a public outdoor space through some sort of project or initiative.
For Woodcock, that includes numerous activities in Stephenson Park, near Main Street and Danforth Avenue, after forming an association out of necessity. He was reading Ward 32 Councillor Mary-Margaret McMahon's newsletter about local park cleanups.
"I said, 'Hey, how come Stephenson Park isn't on there?' And she said, 'talk to your park's friends group.' And hence how the Friends of Stephenson Park started," he said.
In the short few years since the group began, it has hosted cleanups, bonfires, Canada Day celebrations, yoga in the park, an outdoor skating rink and more.
When he first moved to the area almost six years ago, Stephenson Park was not the family-friendly space it is now – at least not at all hours of the day. Woodcock witnessed drug deals, prostitution, and more, but between the cleanups and the regular activities, there's a transformation in progress, thanks to the ongoing efforts of Woodcock and a small but dedicated group of neighbours who have been fighting to reclaim their public space.
"We're trying to make it a nicer park and a safer park," said Woodcock.
Jon Morrice, the crime prevention officer at 55 Division, appreciates the work the local residents around the park have been doing. In fact, he's the one who nominated Woodcock for the award.
"A few years ago Stephenson Park was having a few problems," said Morrice.
He is a proponent of neighbourhoods nurturing a sense of ownership over their parks, and believes a constant stream of activity, such as what has happened at Stephenson Park, is one of the best ways a community can discourage crime.
"Since then our calls for service for that sort of thing have decreased," said Morrice. "It's at its best now."
Anyone interested in seeing how a small, grassroots community group can transform a local park – or anyone interested in cake, lemonade, music and a bonfire, among other after-dark Canada Day activities – is welcome to head to Stephenson Park on July 1 to say "happy birthday" to the country with a group of neighbours who know what the Canadian spirit is all about.
The Friends of Stephenson Park are on Facebook. Make sure to check in for details on the park's weekly live music series later this summer.

The post In praise of bike lanes, the future of urban transport appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
I know this is great news for most Beach residents who understand the value of making our streets more vibrant, safe and accessible to all commuters (not just those with an exhaust pipe), as well as for those from neighborhoods to the north who would love a safe way to bike down to the Beach and not have to drive around in circles for 40 minutes looking for a place to park.
But I also know some people are very worried that the new bike lanes will add to an already difficult rush hour commute on Woodbine, while others are afraid the new lanes will force traffic onto their quiet side streets.
Let me say this: I understand your concerns, and trust me, more congestion and more idling cars in front of my house (on Woodbine!) is the last thing I want, too. But that's precisely WHY we need to build these lanes!
Bike lanes and "complete streets" are part of the solution to several problems we face. Traffic congestion is just one, but there are also pollution, global warming, depression, sickness, mental health, and so on. Single occupant traffic is a major contributor to many of these same problems.
So here's the thing: everyone wants to live in a city that is clean and pleasant, and easy to get around in – whether on foot, by bicycle or by car.
But if that's truly what we want, then we have to build it. We can't complain about traffic, and at the same time not build bike lanes for those who would love to leave their cars at home. We can't complain about congestion, pollution, or angry Toronto drivers if we're not going to do what it takes to build the future we want.
The days of prioritizing for the single occupant driver are over. Mass transit, cycling and walking are being prioritized by most forward looking cities. Even Mississauga (the place where people drive down the street for a loaf of bread) has decided to change its ways and start building healthier options for a more healthy and vibrant city.
I would also say that fears are overblown. Just take a look at Dundas Street. Dundas has become a great way for people to commute by bicycle and vehicle traffic still flows quite smoothly (without pouring into neighboring side streets). Don't believe me? Just go over and ask those residents how they feel about the new bike lanes – I'm sure they'd love to tell you how it's helped improve their neighborhood.
The future involves clean modes of healthy, low-pollution transportation where traffic flows quickly, safely and smoothly. Smart vehicles and smart traffic lights, as well as mass transit, are going to be major parts of that future – and so are cycling and walking. Let's build the city we want to live in!

The post Danforth 'Wise Guys' condo plans revised appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
Marlin Spring's Canvas Condominium development is proposed for the site of the former Wise Guys bar at 2301 and 2315 Danforth between Morton Road and Patricia Drive. The original application proposed 166 residential units with 259 square metres of live/work units along Danforth Avenue. That's now changed to 172 residential units and 377 square metres of retail and commercial space along Danforth. The building's height has also been scaled back roughly three metres.
City planner Derrick Wong said that the revised application has "significant" changes which stem from a community meeting earlier this year where residents expressed "legitimate issues" with the proposal.
"Are we there yet, 100 per cent? No," said Wong. "There are still a couple of issues, but (the revisions made) are pretty significant."
Most notable is the shift away from live/work units to straight retail and commercial units, and changes to the building's façade and structure as it faces the Danforth.
"There were comments coming back that it was too monolithic," he said. "If you take a look at the newest elevation he's broken it up quite a bit, particularly at grade, he's introduced more elements, more planes in order to make it more interesting, because that was something that kept coming back."
The city prefers retail and commercial space to live/work units at this site, explained Wong.
"At the end of the day what we're looking to do is animate the street," he said. "This has a very large frontage on Danforth. If you put residential at grade then you're not going to have as much activity. You want commercial that's not just a service to the residents but also animates the street."
Developer Zev Mandelbaum of Marlin Spring still thinks live/work units would be better for this property.
That's because he thinks "the future of street retail in the city of Toronto is very tough as retail transforms itself and evolves to become more digital. The idea of a live/work is where a person can float one mortgage for both his business and his home and it can create a dynamic use of the space, whereas before he'd be leaving a larger footprint, now he can leave a smaller footprint over two levels. I think it creates an opportunity where people can have one mortgage, a more efficient, more viable business and create more life on the streets as well."
But ultimately, he decided to listen to feedback from the city and residents who questioned the viability of the live/work spaces.
"It definitely was not my preference," he said. "But we listened to the community and the city staff and they had some reservations about it and we complied."
He said the project plans have gone through "many, many, many changes" and he thinks "right now we have the optimal plan that satisfies everyone to the best of their abilities."
"The project has come along in a good way," said councillor Joe Mihevc, who replaced councillor Mary-Margaret McMahon on this file because she lives close to the development. "The height has been reduced by over nine feet, the angular planes are more respectful of the angular plane guidelines, which in lay terms means less shadow, less overlook on neighbours both to the north and south."
He said the developer has been responsive to concerns from residents.
"I think we're really close to a deal here. You never make a final decision until you see the report, but I think this is coming in a good direction," he said.
Residents still have concerns – that includes congestion, particularly on Patricia Drive, construction, and increased laneway activity. But Wong said that even though people are used to only a few cars in the laneway, it is a public laneway and the city's policies around developer's utilization of laneways is a safety and planning issue. He acknowledges that increased activity takes "some getting used to. It's a difficult transition."
At this particular site, the laneway is not continuous and has a house at one end. If the city determined that the traffic impact would be too much or too dangerous, they could require that the developer purchase the house before allowing the development to proceed – but that isn't the case here, explained Wong.
Residents still have an opportunity to provide feedback to the revised proposal before city staff develop their report and recommendation, which will head to the East York Community Council in the fall.
And a group is still collecting signatures for its petition opposing the size and height of the development. The group, which calls itself Friends of Danforth East, submitted a first petition to the city late last year and has been actively pressing the developer to make changes to its proposal.

The post Fringe Festival highlights local theatre talent appeared first on Beach Metro Community News.]]>
The Fringe Festival began in 1989, and plays are chosen entirely by a lottery system – no juries for this fest. This system allows total newcomers to be billed alongside theatre vets, encouraging experimentation among the creators, and spurring a sense of adventure for patrons.
Fringe 2016 performances run from June 29 to July 10. For full dates and times of specific shows, and to purchase tickets, see fringetoronto.com. During the festival there will also be a box office in the parking lot behind Honest Ed's at 581 Bloor St. W. Note that no latecomers are admitted to Fringe shows.
Life List
Life-long Beacher Alex Eddington is back at Fringe this year stretching the boundaries of traditional theatre. His last appearance in the festival was with his production Yarn in 2013.
Life List takes a fitting and novel approach to telling stories through birdwatching: the play takes place on a walking tour through the West End, mixing storytelling, music and, yes, actual birdwatching. The performance aims to mix autobiography with magical realism, according to show creator and performer Eddington.
Audience members who don't bring their own will be supplied with clipboards and binoculars, and the group will set out on an expedition to spot the rare "white robin" in Seaton Village. Before his mother died in 2014 of breast cancer, she passed on her life list of birds to Eddington, and asked him to keep adding entries. The stories told during Life List vary depending on what birds are actually spotted, but "they all lead back to his mother, his pet bird Spike and the cancer that took them both," according to press materials.
Eddington describes Life List as "a unique site-specific show that uses the quirks of a historic Toronto neighbourhood as its backdrop."
The play is co-directed by Andrew Gaboury and East End resident Tyler Seguin. For more about Life List and Eddington see alexeddington.com. Take note: the play runs rain or shine, so dress for the weather – and bring your binoculars.
Beach resident Jake Runeckles is co-founder of Vocative Theatre, and one of two performers in Knots, a performance piece premiering at Fringe.
"We call it a theatrical collage as opposed to a play, because we do not follow one storyline," says Runeckles of Knots.
Taking knots as a metaphorical starting point, the piece uses literal knots – from shoe-tying to sailing – to create a piece about the unseen knots in relationships, culture and politics. Performance, movement and original music help Runeckles and Lucy Meanwell tell their story in a non-traditional way.
"We maintain that anyone who sees this show will leave with a new appreciation or consideration of these simple twists and turns that tangle us up," he says.
Knots runs at the Factory Theatre Mainspace. Find more information at facebook.com/KnotsFringeTO.
How May I Mate You?
Upper Beach resident Connor Wooldridge and Notre Dame grad Jenna Naulls are two of the recent theatre graduates who have formed Poorhouse Players.
Last year the troupe won the Patron's Pick award at the Robert Gil Theatre during Fringe, and this year they're back with How May I Mate You?, running at the Theatre Passe Muraille Mainstage.
The play focuses on the world of dating and relationships through the lens of a game show. The game format offers "five rounds of non-stop fun (and maybe a little bit of discomfort)" running through rounds and topics such as 'Calls from Your Mother', 'Past Indiscretions', 'Twister for 2' and a 'sexy lapdance competition'.
Naulls wrote How May I Mate You? and also acts alongside Wooldridge.
"We have a vested interest in this community because it helped us to develop into who we are today," writes Naulls, who credits "outstanding teachers and the positive environment" at Notre Dame for helping her develop her passion for drama and the arts.
Other performers include Kano Wilkinson, Kelsey Johnston (who also directs), Jon Champagne, Jalen Andre and Roshawn Balgrove.
See @poorhouseplays on Twitter for more information.
Water Wonders
Water Wonders is being billed as Fringe's first ever outdoor production for young audiences (ages 8 and up). The play tells the story of one boy's love of nature and his fight to preserve it.
One of the unique aspects of Fringe is its embracing of site-specific performances, and Water Wonders is one such play – the show happens in the garden courtyard of St. George the Martyr Church on John Street. (The production will be moved into the church if the weather doesn't cooperate).
East Yorker Cheryl McNamara said the play was written as a direct response to a friend who, as something of a biodiversity expert, gave a simple answer to a question from the playwright.
"I asked her if she could do one thing to make a difference what it would be. She said: to teach children the importance of nature. I immediately thought of writing a play about a boy's fight to save it," she says.
This is her third Fringe play, after The Dick's a Dame, co-written with Jane Moffat, and The Dizzy & Dale Chronicles. All three are in partnership with director Sue Miner.
Playing the lead is Beacher Chase Jeffels. This will be his first Toronto Fringe appearance, though he has acted at the Edmonton Fringe and in other local theatre productions. Other actors on the bill are Brenda Kamino, Michelle Langille and Mike Ricci.
See facebook.com/WaterWondersFringe for more information.
Pirates Don't Babysit!
Upper Beacher Barb Scheer has written her first play for children. Pirates Don't Babysit! will run as part of this year's Fringekids Festival.
Scheer's own children's love of pirates inspired the story, which follows Jenny's adventures with a band of pirates who show up at her door looking for buried treasure. Jenny agrees to help in exchange for help looking after her baby sister.
The show is fit for the whole family, and offers a fun time with some bumbling pirates helping keep the baby happy.
The pirates are played by played by Carl Bauer, Jamie Johnson, Jesse Perreault and Hilary Wilson. The 'baby' is played by Jaclyn Nobrega, while Carina Cojeen plays mom.
The role of Jenny is played by Scheer's 9-year-old daughter Olivia Harms, who also provided inspiration for the character.
Pirates Don't Babysit! runs at the George Ignatie Theatre. See facebook.com/Pirates-Dont-Babysit for more information.
