In this issue: One of those ramping up was me. • Found - new Editor for LPSS Matters What a treat it has been to read your letters, comments and the contributions of our dedicated columnist staff. Thanks for making the effort to get them to us. I found myself rereading some of these several times both because they Reunion 2007 • were so interesting and because I fouled up while editing and learning how to Reflections pg2 use Publisher and so lost them in this process.

The Four Courts of Sir Lyman Duff
THE FOUR COURTS OF SIR LYMAN DUFF RICHARD GOSSE* Vancouver I. Introduction. Sir Lyman Poore Duff is the dominating figure in the Supreme Court of Canada's first hundred years. He sat on the court for more than one-third of those years, in the middle period, from 1906 to 1944, participating in nearly 2,000 judgments-and throughout that tenure he was commonly regarded as the court's most able judge. Appointed at forty-one, Duff has been the youngest person ever to have been elevated to the court. Twice his appointment was extended by special Acts of Parliament beyond the mandatory retirement age of seventy-five, a recogni- tion never accorded to any other Canadian judge. From 1933, he sat as Chief Justice, having twice previously-in 1918 and 1924 - almost succeeded to that post, although on those occasions he was not the senior judge. During World War 1, when Borden considered resigning over the conscription issue and recommending to the Governor General that an impartial national figure be called upon to form a government, the person foremost in his mind was Duff, although Sir Lyman had never been elected to public office. After Borden had found that he had the support to continue himself, Duff was invited to join the Cabinet but declined. Mackenzie King con- sidered recommending Duff for appointment as the first Canadian Governor General. Duff undertook several inquiries of national interest for the federal government, of particular significance being the 1931-32 Royal Commission on Transportation, of which he was chairman, and the 1942 investigation into the sending of Canadian troops to Hong Kong, in which he was the sole commissioner . -

Comprehensive School Health Report
Comprehensive 2004-2005 School Health 2005 A Peel Public Health Report 2006 Peel District School Board Introduction Comprehensive School Health in the Region of Peel Comprehensive School Health (CSH) is the model of school health service delivery that has been the foundation of the partnership between Peel Health and the Peel District School Board. CSH is a health promotion model that engages school staff, students and parents in the identification of issues affecting their school communities’ health and wellness. A Public Health Nurse assigned to families of schools can facilitate the identification of the issues and the development of a comprehensive plan to address them. CSH has four components: Instruction, Healthy Physical Environments, Support Services and Social Supports. This report highlights health services which address or support one or more of these components. The goal of the CSH approach is to develop a plan which incorporates many programs, policies and services in all of the four components. By addressing all facets of an issue using the components of CSH, effective and sustainable change can be seen in the health of a school community. Peel Health would like to thank our partners in the Peel District School Board who work with us to ensure the healthy development of Peel’s children and youth.

2013 Canadian Computing Competition Results
2013 Canadian Computing Competition Results Sponsor: 1 Comments Commentaires The 2013 CCC was another year of change. In a way similar to 2012, the averages this year were very good, reinforcing that both the Junior and Senior competitions are approachable for the majority of students. Again, there is a large clump of Junior competitors who acheived 60/75, which is a very good score. We launched a live version of the on-line CCC grader (expanding from the pilot version in 2012) that about half of the competitors registered for this year. With a few glitches now sorted out (including Java memory errors and timing issues), I think the on-line grader will become the de-facto standard for contest writers, due to the feedback it provides. We will still allow teachers and students to choose to grade off-line, but the selection of languages (C, C++, Pascal, Java, Python, Perl and PHP) will hopefully cover the vast majority of competitors. Again, if students want to learn Python, check out the CS Cirlces On-line Resource at: cscircles.cemc.uwaterloo.ca We continued the collaboration with Tsinghua University in Beijing and the University of Hong Kong to offer the contest to Beijing and Hong Kong high school students. More information (including results) can be found at: http://ccc.cs.tsinghua.edu.cn/ and http://www.cs.hku.hk/ccc2013/. As in previous years, the organizers from Tsinghua and HKU collaborated with UW to create a contest different than the Canadian CCC. Below, a qualitative summary of both the Junior and Senior contest is presented. -

But we are City Events ~ 8 also learning as we go along, stepping cautiously as it Heritage Updates ~ 9 were into the brave new world of Social Media.

History tells us that it is not, but rather it is a shift in the way we must communicate, provide service, market, and internally think about ourselves.
