REKA SZEKELY rszekely@durhamregion.com AJAX -- A Durham crowd hung on his every word as former prime minister Jean Chretien reminisced about his 40 years in politics at an Ajax fundraiser on Tuesday. Mr. Chretien was the keynote speaker at the second annual Building Industry for Cancer Cure and Care Luncheon on Sept 20. The event, at the Deer Creek Golf and Banquet Facility, was hosted by Tribute Communities in support of The Oshawa Hospital Foundation. He started off by saying that he now works as a lawyer, mainly doing international work to prevent any accusations of conflict in Canada. “I don’t want to have any problem dealing with any government in Canada,” he said, jok- ingly.

Poor habits the focus of program Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- One would imagine that thinking went with driving. But, a new safe driving campaign is encouraging motor- ists to keep their brains running once the ignition key is turned on. ‘Think and Drive ... a second is all it takes’ aims to address three behaviours: speeding, distracted driv- ing, and impaired driving. It’s a partnership between the Durham Regional Police Service, the OPP and Durham Region’s health department. From September to December, the two police forces will focus on enforcing laws related to the campaign. During a media launch at the Regional headquarters last week, Durham Regional Police Deputy Chief Sherry Whiteway said in the first week after students returned to school, police laid 27 distracted driving charges and one hit-and-run driver was nabbed. Distracted driving includes people speaking on a cell- phone or texting. “Speeding is one of the prevalent issues we deal with. It increases the severity of collisions and the severity of inju- ries,” Deputy Chief Whiteway said. In September, the police will focus on speeding, in Octo- ber distracted driving, and impaired driving in November and December. “Think and drive, what a novel idea. No texting, no make- up, no coffee, no smoking. Think and Drive fits exactly into what we’re doing,” she added. Durham police have been pushing traffic safety for years and the new campaign is “a way to put fresh paint on somewhat dated driving campaigns.” OPP Deputy Commissioner Larry Beechey stated, “I’ve seen a lot of campaigns, a lot of posters. A lot have done a lot of good. This is an excellent campaign. We always need something hard hitting and out there and this does. “One distracted driver can put hundreds at risk. Take a second, slow down, put the phone down or hand over the keys,” Deputy Commissioner Beechey noted. While the police focus on enforcement, the health department will promote the effort at community facili- ties, posters and billboards around Durham. There’s also information on the Region’s website. Dr. Robert Kyle, the Region’s medical officer of health, said when he worked in the trauma unit at the Sunny- brook Health Sciences Centre, he saw the impact of acci- dents. “There were brain injuries, pri- marily young men and it was alco- hol related. That stayed with me.” He noted the provincial Trans- portation Ministry reports two motor vehicle deaths every day in Ontario, along with 170 injuries. Over the past two years, there have been 58 fatalities in Durham, Deputy Chief Whiteway noted. Being killed in a traffic accident is the leading cause of death for youths under 14, Dr. Kyle added. “Durham Region has one of the highest rates of hospi- tal visits related to motor vehicle accidents,” Dr. Kyle said, noting about 3,500 people go to hospital annually. “The numbers show we can do better here in Durham Region.” He noted the video to go with the Think and Drive cam- paign on the Region’s website is “powerful and somewhat disturbing. I encourage all Dur- ham Region drivers to take per- sonal responsibility.” Sgt. Jeff Galipeau, of Durham’s traffic safety branch, said in an interview that when the police have to notify a family of a traffic death, “more often than not, it’s a good citizen, a family member.” Knocking on the door in the middle of the night is “the hardest thing for an officer” to do, he said. “We don’t know who will open the door. A wife, parents, a child. It’s traumatic and the memory doesn’t go away.” For more information: visit durham.ca saFety Durham police, OPP want motorists to Think and Drive during campaign metroland File Photo CLARiNGtON -- MPP John O’toole rid himeself of a cellphone while driving when Ontario’s ban on the use of cellphones and other handheld electronic devices by drivers came into effect in October 2009. since then, the law still hasn’t resonated with drivers in Durham Region and across the province. think and drive, what a novel idea.

CallPineRidgetoday Complaints against Chief Mike Ewles found unsubstantiated KristEn Calis kcalis@diurhamregion.com DURHAM -- Durham's chief of police has been cleared of two complaints ques- tioning his conduct after months of investigation. "I was confident all the way along that those resolutions would come forward and the transparency would come out," he said in an interview Friday, shortly after being cleared. Although he was confident, he was glad the public would hear the news. "The community has invested 30 years in me, allowing me to serve as a police officer, and it's important they have confidence in their chief," he said. The first com- plaint emerged in December and the second came to light early in the new year. To ensure transpar- ency, the Durham Regional Police Services Board request- ed independent investigations into the complaints. The first complaint, made by a mem- ber of the public, accused the chief of siding with a former police volunteer whose estranged husband made a com- plaint against her. This complaint was investigated by the Office of the Independent Police Review Director. The second complaint, made by the Durham Regional Police Association, was investigated by another police ser- vice in Ontario. It alleged the chief used his influence to avoid being searched while attend- ing a local hockey game, and that he had tried to intervene on behalf of a friend charged with speeding. Chairman of the police services board, Roger Anderson, announced Friday that the investigations found the chief did nothing wrong. “The board is very pleased that the investigations have concluded that the complaints have no merit,” Mr. Ander- son said in a statement. “Chief Ewles has our full confidence and support. He has been put under the microscope for the past seven months, and we are grateful for his patience and continued leader- ship in serving the citizens of Durham Region.” Chief Ewles learned there is almost "a laser focus on things you say when you hold a public office, and the things you do. "But as leader of the organization I knew I was doing the right things. I knew I had to move when I did and intervene when I did." And he continues to stand by his belief that "people should never be advantaged by knowing the chief, and you can't be disadvantaged by knowing the chief." -- With files from Jeff Mitchell 1-866-550-5462 Call “Knowledge with Understanding” ~ Infants to 14 years.

He questioned what his father would think about the fact that his grandson spoke Chinese. He also talked about Canada’s response to the Sept. 11 terror- ist attacks and the quick decision he made to let American planes land in Canada and the subse- quent decision not to engage in the Iraq war. “It was the right decision, but it was not easy. The public was very divided,” he said. “Virtual- ly not one newspaper supported the move we made.” He also spoke against what he sees as a trend of members of the public service being spoken down to. “We’re very lucky to have prob- ably one of the best public servic- es in Canada,” said Mr. Chretien, adding he says that after visiting 20 to 30 countries a year. Being in the public eye, said Mr. Chretien, was like skating on thin ice. “At the end of the day you say I survived one more day,” he said, pointing out he survived more than 14,000 days in politics. “You’d be surprised, one thing I miss is Question Period,” he said, adding that he would take ques- tions in Parliament three or four times a week without ever having forewarning of what the ques- tions would be. With that, he opened the floor for questions from the audience. Mr. Chretien was asked about his relationship with George W. Bush and responded that it was very polite. “We disagreed about a lot of things in a very civilized way. He would tell his position and you would tell yours and then we would talk baseball.” In fact, Mr. Chretien said he received more pressure from formerBritish prime minister Tony Blair to go to war with Iraq. He was also asked about the decision not to deregulate banks and Mr. Chretien spoke about why he declined to let some of Canada’s banks merge. He feared Canadian jobs would head to Wall Street. “Within weeks and months and years all the services would have come from New York, not Toron- to,” he said, pointing out that Quebec lost its banking industry to Toronto after the separatists took power. He seemed to have the most fun answering a non-question from the audience. An audience mem- ber said he’d ask a question but he was afraid he’d get choked, referencing a 1996 incident when the prime minister put a protes- tor into a choke hold. The hold became known as the Shawinigan Handshake, after Mr. Chretien’s home town. Mr. Chre- tien said the reaction to it varied from the French press interview- ing a psychologist to confirm he was crazy to a survey in Toronto that gave him 85 per cent approv- al. The incident was seen around the world. He said these days there’s a beer named after it in Shawini- gan. “If you go to Shawinigan, have a Shawinigan Handshake to my good health,” he joked. He ended his speech by talking about the fact that Canada was in a good financial position because of his government’s fiscal strat- egy in the early 1990s and men- tioned he’s often invited to speak in other countries about the cuts that were made. But he said it was also impor- tant for Canada to make invest- ments in research and technol- ogy, which stopped the brain drain, and said Canada also ben- efits from being resource rich. Mr. Chretien said everyone wants more money but money doesn’t buy happiness and expressed that he wanted to see a Canadian society where people were generous, sharing and car- ing for each other. “Not that I was not fiscally responsible, I was more than anyone else, but when we had money I was preoccupied about making sure the society worked well,” he said, adding that Cana- da has a lot to offer and it would be sad to lose that. “You know me, I’m a great example of that. I’m the son of a blue collar, from 19 kids in the family and I became prime min- ister ... you don’t see that in too many countries in the world. This is what we built together.” Regional Chairman Roger Anderson, who co-chaired the event with Tribute Communi- ties president Al Libfeld, said the luncheon raised $220,000 for the Oshawa Hospital Foundation. The money was earmarked for the R.S. McLaughlin Durham Regional Cancer Centre.

On Saturday, Oct. 15 the Pickering Pub- lic Library will be offering “living books” to members. As part of a partnership between the library and the Pine Ridge Arts Council, a number of area artists will be on hand to be “checked out” for 30-minute time peri- ods. “The original concept of a Living Library was created in Sweden and designed to break down stereotypes,” said Kathy Wil- liams, director of public services for the Pickering library She described how people of differ- ent cultures or religions volunteered to be loaned out for discussions. The event has also been held in the U.S., with police offi- cers acting as living books in areas with high levels of gang activity to help youth feel at ease around police. “Basically, we’re lending out people instead of books,” Ms. Williams explained. “We decided we would focus on artists because they contribute so much and are a big part of what makes people decide to live in a community. Artists really enrich the community but at the same time it’s very hard for them to make a living, so they’re very under-appreciated. We thought this would be a good way to celebrate them.” So far the upcoming event has been well received, with one Grade 12 student tell- ing Ms. Williams it’s the perfect way for her to get more insight on her planned career as an artist. Although the student plans to attend the Ontario College of Art and Design in the fall, she wasn’t sure what type of art to focus on, and will be able to learn more about a variety of arts. Participants include Herongate Theatre’s Ann Ward, graffiti artist Jeff Goring, potter Deanna Jones, gallery owner Gary Faulkner and photographer Mary Cook, among oth- ers. “I don’t think people realize the type of gems we have living in this community,” Ms. Williams said of the participating art- ists. “These are people who have become very successful, and in some cases are selling their work internationally. I hope this event helps people to see how valuable art is and how much it enriches where you live.” For more information, to register, or for the full roster of artists: CALL 905-831-6265 EmAIL kathyw@picnet.org vIsIt www.picnet.org Yo u’re Invited How well you retiredepends on how well you plan today.

Durham cops are still on the hunt for the men, who are believed to have escaped in a car after activating an alarm at the Daisy Fresh convenience store on Rosefield Road at about 2:10 a.m. A neighbour who heard sounds com- ing from the store called 911, Durham police said. The suspects, described as white men, fled in a two-door car with cash, ciga- rettes and lottery tickets.

Kathy Williams, Pickering Public Library Parking Disregard for rules is rampant To the editor: Re: ‘Read the signs or pay the fines’ letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, Sept. 2, 2011. I read with interest the recent letter regarding parking issues. I couldn’t agree with the writer more. The blatant disregard for traffic and parking rules today is ram- pant.Everyone’s personal situation is more important than someone else. Running that red light at Westney Road and Ritchie Avenue to get on the highway 30 to 45 seconds sooner is more important than killing someone (as almost happened at 6:10 on a recent morning). I live on Large Crescent, which has recently seen its share of overnight park- ing tickets. Some nights it seems there are more cars on the road than in the drive- ways. I recently received a ticket and have only myself to blame. Having said that, I ask myself why I con- stantly see many parked vehicles, without tickets on them, on Pearce Drive, Dakin Drive, Hufton Court, Coughlen Street and Carrick Avenue in the morning when I drive to work. If bylaw officers are going to the trouble of tagging Large Crescent, let’s be fair and tag everyone they see parked overnight. Also, instead of tagging for violating the three-hour rule, which involves chalking the tires and returning three hours later, why not just immediately tag them for illegally parking on the road between the hours of approximately 1 a.m. to 5 a.m.? My guess is the three-hour violation is a more expensive ticket, generating more revenue. Gord Tewnion Ajax HealtH Next Ontario government must ban minors from tanning beds To the editor: Ontario needs to take the lead from the provinces of New Brunswick and Nova Scotia and ban youth from using tanning beds. A recent poll commissioned by the Canadian Cancer Society suggests that 80 per cent of Ontarians support restricting youth under 18 from using tanning beds. The policy especially makes sense when you consider that melanoma rates have more than tripled over the last 30 years and that it is the second most common cancer amongst 15 to 34 year olds. Although Health Canada has published guidelines for the operation of tanning equipment, tanning salons in Ontario do not face any mandatory rules for the oper- ation of their equipment. Because of this, many tanning salons allow young people to use their facilities, increasing their like- lihood of developing skin cancer. The next government of Ontario should do the right thing and pass legislation that will ban any young person under the age of 18 from using tanning beds. Ontario must make melanoma a priority and put a stop to this rapidly escalating disease. Bonnie Evans Pickering Controversy Well water concerns over natural burial proposal To the editor: Re: ‘Going green: a look at Ontario’s only natural burial site’, news, durhamregion. com, Aug. 17, 2011. I have a major concern being a resident in the area where the natural burial site is being proposed in Ajax. That being that those of us who live in the proposed area rely on well water for our drinking water because the town of Ajax does not service our particular area with municipal water. I would venture to guess that the burial site in Cobourg is in all probability surround- ed by subdivisions that are serviced by municipal water. There have been no stud- ies assessing the long-term effects. In order for an accurate evaluation of the long-term effects of decomposing bodies on the well water of the homes in the affected area to be made then a baseline sample of water from all the well-reliant homes in the area would have to be collected and monitored over a significant number of years. Then and only then could any kind of assessment be made. The taxpaying resi- dents of the affected area have a right to expect such a study. Connie Brienza Ajax A Metroland Media Group Ltd.

All content copyright We tHink... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com Editorial Opinions durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 21, 20116 AP& College students in Durham can put strike behind them College students across Durham Region can breathe a sigh of relief this week with the reaching of a tentative agreement between support workers and college administrators. The two-week strike left many students scrambling in the first week of classes, particularly those starting their first year of studies in the respective programs of choice. Registration, cleaning and food services, access to student loans and other services provided by college support staff were in many cases severely curtailed, while oth- ers were entirely unavailable to students for the duration of the strike. A weekend of intense bargaining led to the tentative agreement, putting support staff workers back on the job Tuesday to provide the important services students need so they can focus on their studies. Details of the agreement remain unavail- able until the ratification vote, accord- ing to Ontario Public Service Employees Union officials. The good news is the strike wasn’t a pro- longed walkout and both sides managed to find common ground before the strike action could severely impact the school year. The difficult news is that OPSEU and management staff at Durham College will now have to make up for lost ground and ensure that every student is in a position to worry solely about learning and achiev- ing their individual goals. News that a tentative deal has been reached is cold comfort for those students left to struggle in the meantime, perhaps forced to borrow money for needed text- books that were to be paid for through student loan funds, or those with sched- uling conflicts that couldn’t be adequately managed in the interim. But this is the nature of workplaces in which unions exist. Contract periods are limited, disagreements arise and bar- gaining, more often than not, is required to reach mutually acceptable terms. It’s unfortunate that college students in Dur- ham were inconvenienced by the strike, but something from which they can learn should they face a similar situation in future workplaces. It is to their credit that students found ways to cope or were able to manoeuvre around the work stoppage to make the most of the situation. We acknowledge the patience of stu- dents in that regard, and encourage OPSEU members to ratify the deal being recommended by their union executive. Time to turn the focus entirely back to learning for the region’s college students. durhamregion.com7 AP News Advertiser • September 21, 2011 If I should ever happen to get teleport- ed back in time, you know, as a result of a wormhole or some new Smartphone app, things would likely not go well for me. Unless, by some random stroke of good fortune, my sudden appearance should be witnessed by throngs of superstitious, fearful peasants who immediately bow down and deify me, I would almost cer- tainly be dead inside of a few days. Dis- patched quickly and disposed of as dead weight. The fact is that, outside of some pretty fabulous stories about our modern world, and belching the alphabet, I have nothing to bring to the party. I have no real talents, gifts or skills that are not dependent wholly on modern con- veniences and technology. I don’t know how to grow my own food. I cannot build my own shelter. I do not know how to hunt, kill, or butcher my own meat. I can’t make a fire without the use of matches or lighter fluid. Hell, I only just recently figured out how to work my car radio. I am a writer and an actor. And while I know that, anthropologically, humans have always had some use for the arts, chances are very good that, back in the day, the guys who did the cave paintings and the fireside storytelling also had day jobs. I, unfortunately, am a bit of a one-trick pony. The sad truth is, most of us are. Most of us don’t even possess the survival skills of a 10 year old from the 1800s. Can you bake bread? Work a loom? Raise a barn? And if you think we’re pathetic, the cur- rent generation is even worse. If the power grid ever goes down permanently, people of my vintage still remember and under- stand an ancient code called the Dewey Decimal system. Provided the libraries haven’t burned in a fireball of nuclear radiation, we will still be able to open a dusty card drawer and find a thing called a ‘book’ that might tell us how to grow our own food, turn a park bench into a lean-to or construct a cross- bow from an old brassiere. Anyone under 30 will be left hungry, frustrated and vain- ly twitching their thumbs over dead key- pads. I realize I’m laying it on a little thick with the hyperbole here but I hope my point is clear. What valuable skills and information are we abandoning in our insatiable hunger for technological advancement and our mad penchant for outsourcing? I remem- ber, less than a decade ago, engaging in a fierce debate with an individual who claimed that cursive writing would soon go the way of the dodo in favour of key- boarding skills. I was astounded that someone could make such an ignorant assertion. But ask yourself, how often do you actually write anything anymore? The only letters most of us form anymore are those in our signa- ture. And with the advent of chip cards and pins, even those are getting rusty. I don’t want to seem like a voice cry- ing in the wilderness. Believe me, no one embraces technology and gadgetry more than yours truly. But I am shocked and not a little ashamed that my life-skills resume is so shallow. And really, I just need one thing. One lit- tle skill to keep the rest of the tribe from throwing me in the dinner pot. Hmmm. I wonder if shadow puppets would count? -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. NEIL CRONE Can’t anybody work a loom these days? Sheesh SABRINA BYRNES/ BEHIND THE LENS CLARINGTON -- A participant fires a paintball into the dis- tance at an outdoor event This was a fun assignment! I like the smoke coming out of his gun, but the experience of shoot- ing this assignment is what I’ll remember. I have never pho- tographed paintball, so I didn’t quite know what to expect. I tried to blend in and get some shots but it was a little diffi- cult as I was wearing a bright orange vest. I guess some of the guys on the other side of the trees didn’t realize I was a pho- torapher and I got ambushed! The things we do for a photo! Don’t just protest, get out and cast your vote LETTERS TO THE EDITOR To the editor: We have all seen what may happen if you do not exercise your right to vote. As a recent letter writer noted, if more people had gotten out to vote then Clar- ington might not be building the inciner- ator that so many people have been com- plaining about. He pointed out that the mayor was elected with only 11.9 per cent of the vote. Please, especially students, get out and vote in the upcoming provincial election. Students are constantly complaining about the high cost of post-secondary education. A person would think that the party with the best options for students would have their vote. But no, the students do not care too much about the issues and when tuition is increased the only thing that students can think of to do is to protest. I am beginning to think in a defeatist way just like the students, but I hope I do not change my mind. Ron Horner Oshawa WASTE Time to move on in incinerator controversy To the editor: Re: ‘Fool me once’ letter to the editor, durhamregion.com, Sept. 7, 2011. The letter writer makes several good points -- I’ll add a few of my own. There were many, many candidates in 2010 -- myself included -- who present- ed various strategies on how to stop the incinerator and had voters supported dif- ferent choices events may have worked out differently. In the end, Clarington got precisely the combination of representatives it voted for. Those elected to office played the cards they were dealt and if you talk to them, each made decisions they thought were best. But for all intents and purposes, except for monitoring and a positive result from a pending court challenge, the incinerator issue has concluded. Clarington now needs to unite and pur- sue future opportunities to enhance our communities, including lower taxation, GO expansion, Darlington new build and the construction of Hwy. 407.

Find Yo ur Success, with a Pe rsonal Tr aining & Nutrition Plan, new from Pickering Recreation Complex! durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 21, 201110 AP Into the wild: ... to go Armed with an iPhone, reporter heads into the woods looking for treasure REKA SZEKELY rszekely@durhamregion.com AJAX -- “It’s using million-dollar satel- lites to find $2 Tupperware in the forest.” That’s how Ajax resident Patrick Perez explains geocaching to the uninitiated. I bumped into him at the recent Cele- brate Ajax festival. Mr. Perez and Ajax Active Transportation and Trails Advisory Commit- tee member Richard Cooke had a booth set up and they were introducing people to the hide-and-seek game that is geocaching. It was a perfect opportunity to get the rundown from them. Essentially, geocachers use GPS coordi- nates to find the more than 1.5 million caches hidden around the world. In Durham Region alone there are hundreds of hidden caches. Inside the cache, there are usually small trinkets such as buttons, key chains and whistles and people pick them up on a take- one-leave-one basis. What you leave in the cache is up to you, but Mr. Cooke said he likes to leave Cana- da-themed items since lots of visitors from Europe geocache in Durham. Cachers sign a log book in the cache and they also log it online on geocaching.com when they get home. Mr. Perez pointed out geocaching is a great activity for the family, and in fact his sons, 10-year- old Nathan and 12-year-old Chris, are fans too. “I like that it’s fun and it gets you exercise,” said Chris. In order to play, I needed either a handheld GPS unit or a geocaching app for my iPhone. A quick glance online told me a new GPS unit retails for $150 to $400, so I opted for the latter, shelling out $10 for the full version of the app from geocaching.com. If you don’t have a smartphone, try borrow- ing a GPS unit from your local library or the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Author- ity. Mr. Perez and Nathan helped me find a simple cache in Rotary Park and I was sur- prised to realize my GPS app only got me within about five metres of the cache. It was up to me to search the general area and find it. Nathan took quite a bit of delight in show- ing me a particularly tricky cache that was a container disguised as a rock. The next day I headed back to the Rotary Park area over the bridge towards Pickering in my first solo search. I followed the compass point on my app and came to an area near the path that had once been an orchard. After searching in and around a few trees, I quickly found the cache stashed inside the hollow of an apple tree. Finding it was a big thrill and I eagerly opened it to see what was inside. I didn’t grab any of the trinkets, which included coins and various dollar store items, but happily signed the log book. The whole thing took just a few minutes, so I got ready to try a tougher multi-cache, which involves several steps to find the end cache. First, I followed my compass to a histori- cal plaque where I used dates from the write-up to set the co-ordinates for my second stop. After walking on a well-maintained, though unpaved, portion of the Ajax trails, I found my second stop, a post with a yellow serial number on it. Those numbers provided the co-ordinates for the third stop where a film canister was supposed to contain the co-ordinates for my fourth and final stop where the cache was located. I followed a lightly beaten and somewhat overgrown path into the forest that runs along the Duffins Marsh, hiking about half a kilometre. Although I was at Ajax’s popular waterfront, I felt like I was the only person in the world. I’ve lived in Ajax for 17 years and had never before found this path. When I got close to the area where the film canister was supposed to be located, I eager- ly began my search. I searched tree hollows and under rocks, on branches and in the bushes. Nothing. Grimacing, I stuck my hand into decay- ing downed trees and hoped nothing would nibble on my fingers. But still the small cache eluded me. A quick glance at the time told me I’d been geocaching for an hour and a half and it was time for me to get back to the regular world. As I trudged back through the overgrown path, I was a bit bummed about not finding it. Just then, I saw something brown darting through the brush. At first I thought it was dog, but quickly realized it was a doe. She ran past me not 10 feet from where I was stand- ing. Then, another rustling, this time I was a little more prepared as a second deer darted past me. My heart raced with excitement and I couldn’t restrain the grin on my face. That’s when I realized, geocaching isn’t about the trinkets, it’s about the journey. And I couldn’t wait to do it again. To find out if I ever found that elusive cache, visit my blog, called Word Count, at durhamregion.com. geocaching PETER REDMAN PHOTO AJAX -- Reporter Reka Szekely tried geocaching for the first time and bravely reach- es into a hollow tree in search of a sealed container that had been hidden some- where in Ajax, Aug. 28. This tree turned up a blank, but Ms. Szekely did find her cache nearby. Geocaching is a growing sport in Canada, in which participants use GPS devices to track down the location of hidden items and record their discoveries in a log book at each location. (Inset) The contents of this cache included a log book, some coins, a plastic sword and binding for a weather-beaten bible with faded mes- sages in it. What It’s Like... What It's L i k e... What It's Like... LEARN TO SPEAK GEOCACHER Muggles - This Harry Potter originating name refers to non-geocachers who may give you a strange look when you’re sticking your hand into tree hollows and searching under piles of leaves. They’re best avoided. Puzzle cache - To find the coordinates for the cache, geocachers must complete a puzzle first. It could be a crossword puzzle, Sudoku or any num- ber of other puzzles. Travel Bug - A tagged and tracked item that peo- ple move from cache to cache. TNLN - Shorthand for took nothing, left nothing, often left in log books in a cache. TFTC - Shorthand for ‘thanks for the cache’, a message to a cache owner. Earth Cache - Instead of looking for a hidden can- ister, cachers look for a unique geological or natu- ral features. It could be a river or a marsh, rock for- mation or any number of other natural locations. REKA SZEKELY / METROLAND AJAX -- A cache hidden in the hollow of a tree in Ajax.

The Panthers dropped a pair of weekend games, losing 9-2 to Trenton and 4-2 to the Lindsay Muskies. ontaRio JunioR Hockey league Effort there, but wins aren’t Pickering drops pair of weekend games to trenton, lindsay BRad kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The Pickering Panthers coach- ing staff has broken the season down into 10-game segments, reviewing the progress the team has made at each interval. That being the case, the Ontario Junior Hockey League club reached the midway point of the first segment over the weekend, and following a couple of home ice losses, will have to be better in the last half to break even. The Panthers were humbled 9-2 by Trenton on Friday and 4-2 by Lindsay on Sunday after- noon. “We have such a tough start, especially for such a new team,” said head coach Mike Gala- ti. “We have 16 players that weren’t here last year and a brand new coaching staff. It’s going to take some time. “Twenty games in we’ll be looking back with the tougher part of the schedule out of the way and I think we’ll be fine. If we can stay near .500, I’ll be happy.” Against Trenton, the visitors turned a 2-2 score 2:49 into the second period into a 9-2 rout with seven unanswered goals, including four in the middle frame and three more in the third. Specialty teams played a huge role in the game, with Trenton scoring on five of 10 power-play chances, four of them in the sec- ond period. “A 9-2 score is never acceptable,” said Gala- ti of the lopsided loss. “We should have been a lot better. I think it was a combination of us being that bad and them being that good.” Tanner Bull and Andrew Goldberg had a goal each and both collected an assist on the other’s goal as well, as the Panthers were out- shot in every period, trailing 49-20 by game’s end. On Sunday against Lindsay it went right down to the final buzzer, with the outcome undecided until an empty-net goal with just six seconds left in the game preserved a 4-2 victory for the visitors. Evan Bruno, on the power play, scored in the first period, and Andrew Medico counted the only goal of the second as the teams entered the third period tied 2-2. A Lindsay goal with 6:48 remaining gave them their third one-goal lead of the game, with the empty-netter before the period ended concluding the scoring. “We played well. Defensively it was one of our better games,” said Galati. “We hit a cou- ple of cross bars, and if they go crossbar and in, we win 4-2. I think that’s the way things are going now. The effort was there, we just have to start finding ways to win.” The Panthers will get three more cracks at it this weekend when they play on three con- secutive days. Friday they host Toronto Lake- shore at 7:30 p.m. at the Pickering Recreation Complex, then return the favour the follow- ing day in Toronto, rounding out the weekend with a trip to Trenton on Sunday. tHe ScooP The Panthers added Cosimo Fontana to the lineup after he cleared OHL waivers through the Ottawa 67’s. The 17 year old played just 14 games last sea- son before being sidelined with a concussion ... Also added to the roster was Kyle Rowe from North Bay of the Northern Ontario Junior League ... Deleted for the next six games is Connor Oakley, who has been sus- pended after receiving an instigator, aggressor and fighting major in Friday’s game against Trenton. He received a one-game suspension earlier this season after a game against St. Michael’s. BaSketBall Keane named to Canadian roster AJAX -- Kalisha Keane will be part of the women’s team to represent Canada at the 2011 FIBA Americas championship in Neiva, Colombia, from Sept. 24 to Oct. 1.

Hockey Brian Mcnair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- Emerson Clark holds two important distinctions over the rest of his Oshawa Gen- erals teammates as the start of the Ontario Hockey League sea- son looms for the team Friday. He’d like nothing more than for both to change by season’s end, however. First, the Whitby native is the lone local player with the club at this point, although he and every- one else involved with the team would welcome back Pickering’s Andy Andreoff with open arms if the Los Angeles Kings choose to assign him back to junior. Clark is also the only player on the team to have a junior nation- al championship to his credit, having just won the Minto Cup lacrosse title with the Whitby Warriors. That, of course, could change in a big way if the Generals were to go the distance this season and win the franchise’s fifth Memo- rial Cup. “Obviously it’s in my mind. We have the team to do it this year. That would be a great accom- plishment,” said Clark, who would join a short list of players to win both trophies if it were to happen. “We have seven guys at NHL camps (as of last week), so it’s kind of laid back right now, but we know when we get those guys back that we’re going to be a really good team and we can go all the way for sure.” In the absence of those key players, Clark, who turns 19 in December, stepped up his game in a big way this preseason, lead- ing the team offensively with four goals and seven points as the Generals managed a 1-3-1 record in five games. A five-foot-nine, 187-pound fireplug who has been known more for his fists through his first two years in the league, Clark hopes to continue honing his offensive skills and add signifi- cantly to the 12 points he has managed to date in 97 career games. “The first two years I was more of a fighter and that’s all I did, but I’m getting some points now, so I can focus on both games and being effective on the ice instead of being a one-dimensional play- er,” Clark said last week, after picking up a goal and assist in a 6-5 loss to the Belleville Bulls. “It’s my third year in the league so I get more confidence every year and I feel good this year.” He’s certainly become a favou- rite, not just among the fans, but also with his teammates and coaching staff. Chris DePiero, the head coach and general manager, certainly likes what Clark has brought to the table since he earned his way onto the club as a free agent two years back. “First and foremost, he’s a great kid,” DePiero said. “He cares about his teammates and he cares about this team and you see that in the way he plays. He’s a very good hockey player. He’s actually a pretty smart player in terms of positionally and under- standing the game.” There was some trepidation on the part of the Generals in allow- ing Clark to play lacrosse this summer, but considering the way that season ended for the War- riors, DePiero is glad that they did. “Winning the Minto Cup this summer was a great experience for him to be on a championship calibre team,” DePiero pointed out, hoping for it to have a conta- gious effect. “He’s come back, A., in great shape but, B., in just the right frame of mind. “He gets to win a champion- ship and bring that type of men- tality back to us.” The Generals open up the reg- ular season in Kingston Friday, and host the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds in Sunday’s home opener, 6:05 p.m. at the General Motors Centre. Generally Speaking The Generals closed out the exhibition schedule with a 3-1 loss to the Peter- borough Petes Sunday at the General Motors Centre ... J.P. Labardo scored Oshawa’s only goal, on a breakaway, giving him seven points for the pre- season, tied for the team lead with Emerson Clark and Scott Laughton ... Kyle Hope, who’s being converted back to a defenceman after spending last season as a forward, sprang Labardo free for the goal ... Daniel Altshuller went the distance in goal for the second straight game, facing only 17 shots. Clark brings championship mentality to Generals GATINEAU, QUEBEC -- The Durham Synchro Club was in a fierce showdown during the 2011 Espoir Championships and 13-15 National Team Trials. Hosted by the Gatineau Syn- chro Club, the 2011 Espoir Cham- pionships are a long-awaited finale to the 2010-2011 synchro- nized swimming season and one of the last chances to best rival clubs. The Durham Synchro Club left its mark on the competi- tion as the 13-15 Yr. Old National team, coached by Julia Maclean and head coach Holley Lund- mark, took the sixth podium spot in Team Finals Championships, beating two other teams from Ontario with which they’ve been in stiff competition throughout the season. This finish raises Dur- ham Synchro to the second place spot in all of Ontario. Amongst the 220 competitors from Quebec, Ontario and Alber- ta, the members of DSC’s 13-15 team held strong in the Figures segment of this competition. The results are as follows: Kion- na Whyte (21), Wenjing Deng (30), Sarah Masters (46), Caitlin Schropp (60), Kristyn Davies (69), Laura Walsh (71), Meg Grylls (75) and Reyanne Padgett (85). Demonstrating artistic excel- lence and athletic flare the 13-15 Yr. duet teams of Kionna Whyte and Sarah Masters (20) and Kristyn Davies and Meg Grylls (26) proved that they were for- midable opponents in the Duet Team Finals Championships. These rankings have resulted in special recognition from Synchro Swim Ontario, Ontario’s synchro- nized swimming governing body, to Kionna Whyte who has been offered a position on Team Ontar- io’s A team while Sarah Masters and Wenjing Deng have been offered a position on B team.

In the round robin, Durham played Assabet, a team from Massachusetts, on Friday morning and lost 3-1 with the last goal being an empty-netter. Next, the team faced the Ohio Flames and extin- guished them with a convincing 6-2 win, followed by a 5-2 victory over Washing- ton Pride. At the end of round-robin play, they were edged out of the A finals by a tiebreaker rule and moved on in the B division. On Saturday, their tournament ended with a tough shootout loss to Warner Academy, a prep school team from Alber- ta. The plauers now look forward to a series of exhibition games against both Canadi- an and American universities, which they will play over the next two weeks before resuming Provincial Women’s Hockey League play with their season opener on Oct. 1 against Southwest in Windsor. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • September 21, 201121 AP 95% of our management team began their career in a position like this.
