According to police, the 41 -year-old clerk at Trillium Florist on Commercial Street grabbed the would-be robber and threw hint out of the store after the young man threatened to punch her "I got tough with him, but I really could have made it tough on myself," said the clerk, who asked that her name not be revealed. 'He just left the impression that he wasn't going to hurt rne.' The wo:na.,. retailed tha: the masked thief entered the store and demanded money. The clerk told him to "get out," but he refused and said that he would harm her if she did not comply. The woman said she threatened to call police and the robber ripped the telephone out of the wall.

The federal and provincial governments finally announced details of a joint Canada - Ontario Infrastructure Work Program. In monetary terms, Pickering is eligible to receive $3.3 million worth of provincial and federal cash, while Aiax's share could total approximately $2.3 million. Durham Region is eligible for $23 million worth of infrastructure funding. The financing is based on 3 -^reeshare formula. Both the province and individual roiects municipalities must match federal dollars for special works projects designed to put people back to work and create long-term 45. Durham Region and area municipalities could conceivably spend more than $70 million on new infrastructure projects. The provincial/federal grants will be available for two years. Money not utilized during that period will be apportioned elsewhere. Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs said his municipality has no shortage of community projects and the town will have no difficulty matching its required one- third share funding — approximately $1.6 million.

Cops battle bulge and help children By Peter Wolchak A group of Durham Region Police officers and staff will wage a "battle of .he bulge" with Toronto counterparts to lose weight for charity. The Battle of the Badges will see 25 volunteers from each force joining the Weight Watchers At Work Program for 10 weeks. Each participant pays a 110 registration fee which Weight Watchers then donates to The Sunshine Foundation, a volunteer organization which makes dreams come true for ill or disable children. In addition, each participant collects donations, many on a per -pound basis. For DRP sergeant Rick Bates, an Ajax resident, :his is the perfect time to lose 15 pounds of "Christmas pudge." Last fall he quit smoking for the second time and started putting on weight. "People who are involved fin this program) are doing it for health reasons," Bates told The Bay Nears. "But charity gives it a special purpose. Police services are trying to promote a healthy diet and better living. Obviously, fitness is a prime concern in ou:r work." Bates is pleased with the generosity he has encountered since the campaign's launch one week ago. "People are impressed by our dedication and they like where the money is going. It's not uncommon for me to get 15 to 20 dollars (from one person) for losing weight." Bates predicts the Durham group will raise more than $5,000 and hopes each participant will collect $100 on top of the registration fee. The donation will be good news for the Sunshine Foundation. The Canadian organization has served 16 children in Pickering and Ajax, making it possible for them to fulfill treasured dreams, such as meeting entertainment stars or attending a professional sports game. The Foundations largest project is the Dream Lift, a massive undertaking which flies 85 children to Disney World for one day.

That point was made during a council -in -executive -committee meeting on Jan. 24. Five residents and a Pickering Transit bus driver spoke out against a plan that would streamline the operation and diminish service during off-peak hours. The transit cost-cutting plan was first introduced during two days of budget discussions on Jan. 13 and 14. Councillors directed staff to provide the best transit service for $900.000 — $200,000 less than what was originally proposed. That scheme was endorsed during the Monday meeting. _7 _Eddies Ca e fre r ti All sandwiches made sh dailly Available on Kaisers, Whole Wheat, onion Buns and Pita Bread. 1-42 116 -a - W -C. F 1 1 1 ' H 12 a 1 However, delegates who spoke during this week's committee meeting encouraged councillors and staff to look at other cost cutting alternatives besides service reduction. "I'm willing to pay (a fare) increase to keep the buses running," Rosebank Road resident Jeremy Galer told committee. Galer, who works in Ajax, said he gets up at 5:30 a.m. and catches the bus to work. He finishes his job at 2 O.M. `It takes me an hour to get to work. I don't mind that." Galer said he's prepares to pay up to 2 for a bus rale. The curren: Pickering Transit fare is $1.30.

As an afternoon employee at the Pickering Town Centre mall, she said it is vital that off-peak bus service not be diminished. Walton brought along a 750 - name petition from workers at the mall who opposed the reduction. Walton suggested expioring ways to generate revenue for transit — specifically through a more aggressive approach to gathering advertising dollars on transit buses. She said that transit users should be involved in discussions to modify the service. 'There has got to be another solution and there has got to be more ideas," she insisted. "You can't just take a service and change it so fast." Transit driver Ron Dawe said numerous petitions have been received from users who object to service reductions. He said that local drivers want an opportunity to provide their input into other ways of paring trarisit costs. Dawe added that some oassenvers sav t^ev walid oav a fare increase for a "reasonable system" rather than a drastically - reduced service. Town Manager Tim Sheffield stressed that there is no plan to cut existing service, only to "review it to make it more efficient and more effective." "It's just as difficult for :municipalities to keep its costs in line as it is for individuals," he said. The town keeps track of who uses the system and where, Sheffield added. When the budget is approved, town staff, including transit drivers, will meet to determine how savings will be achieved. During an interview after the committee meeting, Sheffield told The Bay News that a meeting between town management and the union representing drivers will be held nis weekend to discuss the transit issue. The town manager said it would cost an additional $210,000 to maintain the identical transit service in 1994. Sheffield said he personally had not received one complaint from a transit user regarding proposed changes to the service. Ne added that Executive Director of Operations Tom Quinn has received "three or four complaints. Changes to the transit system would come into effect no sooner than six weeks from now, Sheffield said. McTeague hosts evening at a movie By Rob Dubeau PHS co-op student Federal politicians in Ottawa were treated to a night out at the movies last week, courtesy of Ontario Riding MP Dan McTeague. The local Liberal member arranged a private screening of the movie Schindler's List — an epic about the Holocaust during the Second World War. "The screening gives a chance for political representatives to review what I consider to be one of the finest films of our generation," McTeague told The Bay News. "I believe its important that parliamentary members not be blind and oblivious when it comes to racism and discrimination of race, sex or age." Schindler's List, directed by Steven Spielberg, is a story about an industrialist who used his ties with Nazi officials to save more than 1,100 Jews from concentration camps. "lts not that 1 just thought it would be fun to go see a movie that night," said McTeague. "1 had already seen the film and I think when its all told and done, the movie is informative." "I felt that Schindler's List not only relates vividly the horror of the Holocaust, but it also relates to many situations in the world today. And I t:iink its important to remember that racism is not something confined to a certain part of the world." S`rty-five members of parliament attended the screening, along with 14 senators and three ambassadors. MCA/ iniversal picked up t e cost of the evening. "I7:e film :roved me in a way that no other film had ever done before," said McTeague. "And I assure you that there were not any members of parliament who left the theatre feeling the same way they did going in." CLASSIC ARRANGEMENIS II "OVER 17 YEARS EXPERIENCE IN FRAMING" PRESENTS...

Today there are 46 schools in the system with a total enrollment of 22,772. The teaching staff have grown from AV 314 to 1,366.

'We will find (the money) from existing fiscal managing processes." High among the mayor's "wish list" of infrastructure projects is a $20 million anerobic waste composting facility on a five -acre site in the town's industrial section. The facility would be designed to process food wastes from the residential and private sector, and create methane gas as a by- product. While private sector financing would be a major component, Arthurs said he hopes a portion of available infrastructure money could be directed to the project. "This would be new technology and create on-going, longterm jobs," he said. "It's a project I would like us to pursue avidly. It would bring the greatest benefit to our municipality for the longest term." The mayor's second infrastructure project choice would be the construction of a new bridge at the foot of Liverpool Road where it crosses the mouth of the lake. It would provide greatly improved access to the waterfront, he said. Arthurs said the town would wait until project criteria is clearly established by the federal and provincial governments before the town applies for grant money. Durham West MPP Jim Wiseman said the province will match its share of the infrastructure grant program through the jobsOntario Program. 'It has to be a job that wasn't going to be done,' Wiseman said, explaining that municipalities can't cancel one project to create another. Conceivably, vocal municipalities could be entitled to even more grant money. If Durham Region decides not to participate, then local municipalities have the option to apply for the excess cash, Wiseman said. The Durham West MPP recognized how quickly the infrastructure initiative. announced shortly after the October federal election. has come about. Isn't it nice when there'; mutual willingness to get on with it?" he said. 'The message is that with cooperation at various levels of government, decisions can be made quickly. I'm really pleased to finally have a partnership approach to solving the problems of the community." Wiseman said that during the next week, he, Ontario Riding MP Dan McTeague, and both local mayors will meet to discuss a strategy. --- COUPON-------COLYON - - - - -- COUPON• --- :25%11 TRILLIUM DOZEN LONG ' ROSE B�OJjJW' L%SEM r O�� ROSE,r�. t i Ant P,owvrArrangement t UTM WI-IH'j.- 1 COo ON CCNIPON ' Coupp ot valid In Q/RF1ol.T �� t atTMOUT 1 1 COUPON $ 1 95 <:oc Pox $ C95 combination with 1 f'1.95 i ' szv. 1 any other offer ' t Expire, Feb. 9 1994.

They certainly know how to wage an impressive anti - dump war. Last weekend they took an in -your - face approach and literally brought the battle to Bob Rae's front door. A group of 100 paid an unexpected visit last Sunday to the premier's home on upscale Baby Point Road in West Toronto. Luckily for him, he was engaged in a shinny game in '.Markham at the time. It would have been quite a scene had protesters caught up with the premier. Their point was made, nevertheless. Last week, York Region protesters thwarted environment ministry investigators who were hoping to conduct soil samples at the Vaughan preferred dump location. Both situations garnered significant media attention and reinforced the legitimate position of residents in that region. In no small way, such actions have had a significant impact. Metro Toronto is now looking at the "willing host" alternative, despite the province's resolve not to consider such an option. Those of us in Pickering should be watching and learning. While it may be impossible to mount the same scale of protest, it's important for the community to keep on declaring its continued opposition. It's been difficult to amass the same determined resolve in the Pickering dump battle. The biggest problem appears to be that the fight is perceived as a local one. Only a community, and not a region, feels victimized. The same fewgroups aril individuals continue to try and keep the dump opposition alive here. But that effort is losing steam. An alarming fad is that there has not been much in the way of community outcry since the preferred Pickering site was announced last year. Too bad. Groups of determined York Region residents — like they did last week — continually prove that vociferous protest has an impact and makes a difference. tt# v*+&4 ,.- P�t�r dd�ak SAFE AT FIRST. Ten teams turned out for last weekend's thWird annual Sno-Pitch tournament. The event raised $700 for the Heart and Stroke Foundation and $300 for Children's Wish. IIA movie that mattersil It was some kind of cheap publicity stunt, right? I was initially skeptical and suspicious of local MP Dan McTeague's first parliamentary action last week. Dan played host to what seemed to be a boys and girls night out of sorts for Ottawa politicians by treating colleagues to popcorn and a movie — Steven Spielberg's latest hit Schindler's List. Hey, I enjoy a good film as much as anyone — probably more than most. But, politics is serious business, right? 1 sure didn't like the idea of my elected representative spending his time in Ottawa slurping sodas, munching treats and hanging out in a movie theatre. Let him doinglaid off his job if he wants to spend his time that. f7 It initially seemed that our local MP was trying to carve out a niche for himself by assuming the self-appointed role of "good times minister" for the House of Commons. What's next? A couple of hours at the video arcade? Dinner at McDonalds? A day at the races? A night at the opera? I'm being pretty two on McTeague, but you get the idea. On the surface, this political night out seemed frivolous and silly, to say the least. 1 decided this, too, was a good week for me to see Schindler's List — a film that recounts details of the Holocaust in Poland at the hands of Nazi Germans during the Second World War. Weeks earlier, I had been tumed away from a sold -out showing. history.

One speaker quite openly said he doubted the scope of the Holocaust. "You don't really think that many people were killed, do you?" said the one. After seeing Schindlers list, recalling that discussion makes me feel angry that I didn't have the nerve to put the fool in his place. suffering. It disturbed me deeply. There's obviously a need to drive the point Like McTeague, I believe Schindler's List is home for some. The consequences of racism a film that should be seen — especially by those are horrific, as illustrated by the human carnage who may not be completely familiar with these of the Holocaust. Fiction always pales when it's events or doubt they ever happened. compared to the events of real life.

Durham "willing host" search rejected If there's a community willing to accept Durham's trash, it's not the regions job to find it. At least that's what regional councillors appear to have decided last week. Politicians voted 22-4 against endorsing a Pickering Town request to find a willing host community — an alternative to a Durham Region landfill. Pickering Councillor Kip Van Kempen said Durham should "piggy -back" on the efforts of Motrnnolitan Toronto. That municipality endorsed a motion to find a willing host for its garbage late last year. "We have to start looking for alternatives and find a willing host," Van Kempen said at the Jan. 19 council meeting. Van Kempen said the EE11 site in Pickering, chosen by the Interim Waste Authority in November as the next home for Durham landfill, will not be implemented during the present provincial government's term. The next government will want to "expand their options," he said. Regional Chairman Gary Herrema spoke out against the idea, however, suggesting that Pickering councillors concentrate their anti -dump efforts instead of attacking the issue on every available front. "I think we're going squirrel hunting with a shotgun," he said. Oshawa councillor John Aker took his criticism of the idea a step further, saying that the region does not have the authority to direct its staff to help search for a willing host. "We're going to look stupid," he predicted. Pickering Councillor Rick Johnson was the only Pickering representative to vote against the proposal. Agreeing with the proposal would be like "shooting darts all over the province," he said. Johnson admitted that voting against the proposal could personally be "political suicide." However, Johnson said he did not support the plan when it came up in local councii. Kinsmen building community centre The Kinsmen Club of Ajax has the landowner's blessing on an ambitious project to convert a 130 -year-old Ajax house into a clubhouse, community centre and park. Robert Watkins, the chairman of clubhouse development for the local service club, unveiled the plan — estimated to cost at Least $100,000 — at last week's Ajax executive and development committee meeting. The group wants to restore the 1,300 sq. ft. Frost Farmhouse at Rossland Road and Chur&, Street (north of Pickering Village) to "period and use the building for a clubhouse. The club currently meets at the Ajax Warriors Soccer Club facility on the second and fourth Mondays of each month. Plans for the house, which sits on property owned by Runnymede Development, also include adding an ice pad and a bardshell. A newer 5uildirg behind the farm'ouse could be turned into a banquet hail, Watkins added. Principal funding will be spearheaded by the club, Watkins said. 'The town has to develop in a northerly direction," Watkins told The Bay News after the meeting. "This plan gets services in the north and it's an excellent opportunity for our service club to further that process. Runnymede officials gave their full support for the idea, with offers of help on material pricing, servicing and general expertise, Watkins added. Ajax councillors also offered their unanimous support for the scheme, with Mayor Jim Witty . Looking For Personal/Business Computers?

United Way campaign a complete success The Ajax and Pickering United Way campaign came close enough to its not-lessrthan-$1 miliion target to be considered a success by local organizers. Cornmurtity-wide efforts raised a total of $963,043 — $3,000 more than the amount collected during the 1992 drive. Although it fell slightly short of its stated goal, the campaign was "a complete success," says fundraising chairman Gale Mossman. United Way Executive Director Peter Beatteay said the total raised will enable local sporuored agencies to maintain :he same levels of services.

"Reaching 50,000 users real. validates our service to the community," said Deputy Chief Librarian Valerie Ridgeway. "Especially during a recession. Now our book collection is needed the most." But as the user list grows, so does the need for materials. "People are waiting longer to get the books they want to read. So obviously we would like to continue to meet their needs." Every month the ;ibrary receives several hundred new registrations. To keep up with the growing list, the library is looking towards Pickering council for next year.

The Bay News, January 26, 1994 9 Bylaw trying to rid street merchants? By Glenn Hendry A Town of Ajax plan to more than double licencing fees for hawkers and peddlers has at least one flower seller "blooming mad.' Ken Donaldson, whose The Basket Case company peddles flowers on street corners from his home base to Scarborough, says the plan is simply a way for the town to get rid of streetside flower merchants. The proposed bylaw will boost the licence fee for peddlers from $100 to $200 and add on a $50 daily location fee. "All they're trying to do is eliminate us, but they're just going to cause more problems," he told The Bay News following an executive and development committee meeting Jan. 20. "They're blowing it all out of proportion." A street vendor operating in town for a long weekend will now pay 5400 for --e rig`:' to do so. The town revised its bylaw, following complaints from various flower store owners in Ajar that street vendors cut into the business of established companies. After meeting with store owners on Aug. 26, the town decided to hike ucence lees to cover the cost of sending municipal officers to inspect vendor licences. Dave Williams, the town's senior municipal law enforcement officer, said one REBOUND-SPORTS M PAY CASH FOR USED SKIS, SKATES„,{ EXCERSISE EQUIPMENT•: L01 t"A• con 0 MR mmi: or” 3 WELL PAY CA$H FOR YOUR USED EQUIPMENT in the Hours Lord Byron Plaza Mon. -Fri. 149 at Brock Rd. & Hwy. 26833476 .

The bylaw is the only way to effectively regulate the business, he said. Donaldson, who was charged with 60 violations under the old bylaw two years ago (he took the town to court and won.) accused Ajax staff of "caving in to a few influential florists. "There's nothing to stop the florists from going out and selling on the street," he said. p !! �cvL 111&A1 lJ UU� oV MMM ,2I 299 I VIDEO RENTALS 990 Mon. - Thurs. New Releases 1 . 99 2L.

Mooing If you're thinking of selling your home in the near future, have you given much thought to what you plan to leave with the home and what you'd like to take with you? What about the washer and dryer or the fridge and stove? Or how about that heirloom chandelier in the dining room? While these may not seem like important concerns right now, your failure to address them in your listing and the agreement of purchase and sale could lead to a major misunderstanding with a potential buyer somewhere down the road. And the last thing you'll want is the Ioss of the sale of your home due to a dispute or misunderstanding over a relatively minor item. Your reaitor will guide you through the hsting process and ask what you want to include in the sale. But is a good idea to make up a list before meeting with your reaitor, to be hire you dont forget anything. He or she will explain that fixtures are permanent improvements to a property which normally stay with the property as part of the sale. For instance, if ynuve upgraded your airing or your heating system, these are considered permanent fixtures. However, keen in mind that the law is not always crystal clear about what constitutes a fixture. There are circurnstances where you may plan to remove something that might ordinarily be considered a fixture — like that heirloom chandelier. Most purchasers assume this type of fixture is included in the sale unless you specify the contrary in the listing. It is also absolutely necessary that you set out these stipulations in the agreement of purchase and sale. Other items like water heaters and softeners are often rented and are not owned by the vendor.

Should they stay or should they go from the purchase price and the purchaser should be asked to assume the rental. It's a fairly common practice for vendors to include items which would normally be considered as chattels in the selling price. Appliances and window coverings are common examples. If these types of items are to be included in your sale, your realtor should give a precise description of them and state their location within the property. Other items to consider are lawn ornaments, smoke alarms and built-in vacuum cleaners. Generally, these types of things are left with the home, but some people still like to take things with them. If you're one of these people, clearly state in writing what won't be included in the sale. Most realtors can recant horror stories about homeowners taking their wall-to- wall broadloom with them — without specifying this in the listing or agreement of purchase and sale. Others attest to the type of vendor who insists on taking light bulbs and heat registers. If there is any doubt about a particular item, your reaitor will include it in the list of hems to be included or excluded from the purchase price.

Costs are too high for 9-1-1, says Herrema By Glenn Hendry Bell Canada's plan to assume the cost of running Durham's 9- 1-1 emergency service is 'a bit of a scam," according to regional chairman Gary Herrema. Property taxpayers currently front the $450,000 -a -year tab for the emergency service. However, the burden, will be passed on to the shoulders of _ IT'S HERE Bell subscribers sometime next month, pending final approval from the Canadian Radio and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). The plan itself has Herrema's blessing, but not the additional cost. Bell subscribers in Durham Region will pay an extra 32 cents a month — for a yearly total of $620,000, said the The most effective way to remove unwanted body hair! 10, 100% natural product ► Emironmentally frMndlr ► Hair prows back finer A nae spars.

"(The plan) gets it off our back, but it's a bit of a scam that's not controllable except at the CRTC." Herrema said after last weeks regional council meeting. "1 just think the cost is too high. - The emergency service has been available in Durham since May 1, 1991, and Bell has promised to reimburse the region's $300,000 start-up costs. Herrema said the additional cost is being assumed by DL. -ham Region and other :,ore affluent communities to partially subsidize 9-1-1 service throughout Ontario and Quebec. Durham's 200,000 Bell subscribers can access an enhanced system emergency system called Digital Multiple Switching. It enables telephone operators to trace calls and re- route these to a central office with a simple flick of a switch. The 32 cents per month additional charge is only a partial cost. The telephone company expects a 10 -year payback period Herrema, however, suggestec a 24 -cent -per -month charge would be a more appropriate fee. The region hired a lattyer last year to present its case to the CRTC, but wasn't able to sway the commission. 1NARNING THIS AD MAY MAKE YOU UNHAPPY WITH YOUR PRESENT AUTO INSURANCE RECOMMENDED COVERAGE FOR CAREFUL DRIVERS! -WM medium sae •$250 deductible collision -1 million liability *$50 deductible comprehensive -Accident benefits •Family protection endorsement -Loss of uWrental vehi ie NOTE Careful Drivers Over Age 25 with Preferred Driving Records may qualify.

The board, after considerable debate at Monday's meeting, voted 11-6 in favor of giving students at least one year of English-language education before enrolling them in the French immersion program. The move means no new students will be admitted into the program next fall. Trustees were told there will be savings in transportation costs, but because of a loss in provincial grants, the board will face a loss of approximately $14,000 this year. Ajax trustee Cindy Dudley voted against the switch, saying it will be an "unsettling experience" for a child to switch schools after kindergarten. Pickering trustee Louise Farr doubted that would be a problem, noting that "children, adapt to these situations far more easily than adults." School children taking a walk Children living within 1.6 km of a school will likely lose their busing privileges next fall, the Durham Region Roman Catholic Separate School Board announced Monday. Most children who now live within the 1.6 km zone must find their own way to school every morning. The board has made exceptions, however, because of safety factors such as a lack of sidewalks. The boards decision Monday, which was officially withheld until parents and school officials studied it, means there will no kxtger be exceptions to the rule. The decision was one of 21 recommendations from an ad- hoc transportation committee and will ultimately affect the busing boundaries of 26 schools in the region. The board was told there will be "minimal savings" because of the move. The reduced transportation costs will likely be offset by `:cure grow'h. Oshawa trustee Jin-.: Woodward voted against the proposal, saying the decision will "expose children to traffic who haven't been exposed beore." ?'ney're not street smar,- he said. "You say this will be equitable for everybody;, but its hot equitable for these children who will have to face these elements. - Whitby trustee Judy Morrie, who chaired the ad-hoc committee, countered by saying the safety of children was a "paramount issue" when making the recommendation.

Pickering Beach development won't be easy While Pickering Beach property owners will finally be able to develop their properties, it won't be easy. Would-be renovators will be required to submit nine copies of six different drawings if they hope to gain approval for their long- awaited projects. If grading or drainage work is required, landowners might also be asked to post a $2,000 security bond. These are among the highlights of site plan requirements for low-density development in the Ajax lakefront community. These application conditions — the first step towards obtaining building permits for additions and renovations — were unveiled during an executive and development committee meeting Jan. 20. The site plan requirements are the result of a 20 -year develop - or -not -develop argument raging in the community that was settled in December when the Ontario Municipal Board granted the town permission to allow limited development. Opponents will get one last chance to voice their opinions at a committee meeting Feb. 10.

The %-ne for delays is over, she said. lVe've all bee-: t'--ough a lot and I tank wed like to see an end to it. Let people get on ,with it." Rauh-Wasmund was :old that the site plan process will take between two weeks anti two months, in addition to a two-week processing time for the building permit.

The occasion was the annual Ajax -Pickering Board of Trade luncheon Tuesday and both Ajax Mayor Jim Witty and Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs promised accelerated growth in the two towns during state -of -the -union addresses. Witty repeated a prediction that Ajax — which has seen a decline in development in recent years — will set a record for commercial and industrial building permits this year. The Ajax mayor cited the long-awaited approval of Durham Regions Official Plan — a project begun in 1987 — and t^e iature construction of Harwood Avenue between Highway 2 and Rossland Road as the major catalysts for growth this year. He said the two factors will help open up hundreds of acres of developable and serviceable land in the town. Arthurs, who said development permits issued in Pickering represented $150 million in construction value (an increase of 36 per cent from 1992), also predicted rapid growth in 1994. "The complete development picture represents hundreds of millions of dollars in new construction, business opportunities and jobs, jobs, jobs," Arthurs said. "We have shown that strong growth is possibie while the world is trying to adjust to new economic challenges." :�,!>'s♦1� �-,-------Tom•-...L:��'...; - -.� . ._. .�_..__.;�..,.::__.... ,_.. -----.._._,...........,•_-�...,rrr....ce.w.:.r'�...t.a�.�!-_ ,.--h,.,.�+r*�.r - ----�.iss.. - �,;cv.,waw ...
