The Excimer laser developed by IBM in 199 reshapes a large area of the cornea by removing microscopic layers of tissue. The laser is guided by a computer. It's a painless procedure that in most cases takes 60 seconds or less to perform. The process provides corrective treatment for both myopia (an inability to see objects at a distance) and astigmatism (blurred vision for objects near and at a distance). Dr. Jeffery .Machat, the medical director of the Toronto Laser Sight Centre, performs this revolutionary corrective eye surgery on up to 10 patients each week. More than 99 per cent of patients experience no problems with the healing process, he said. 'Once people come in they get very excited,' he said in an interview. 'It really changes their lives. It's a real 'Godsend' to my patients.' The laser surgery can correct mild to severe myopia and astigmatism. Approximately 90 per cent of those who undergo the treatment don't need glasses, Dr. Machat said. The remainder need only weakprescriptions for specific tasks like night driving. Those who still require glasses or contact lenses after the first procedure receive a second treatment at no charge. Laser surgery is performed in two stages. Work on the second eye is done once the first eye has healed and vision is stable. j It takes anywhere from six weeks to six ! months — depending on the individual. I Most have surgery on both eyes within three months. Patients receive consultation twice during the first week, then again every two to four weeks during the next three months after surgery. Further examinations are done every six months for the first two years. The laser surgery seems to have worked extremely well for Toronto Laser Sight Centre patient kneele Rov. Her left eye was corrected on May 14 and at time of writing she was awaiting treatment on the other eye. Roy has already discarded her glasses. 'Suddenly the world is 3-dimensional,' she said. 'I didn't realize that before I had no depth perception. 1 used to do a lot of guessing.' Roy recalled as a youngster she hated wearing eyeglasses and would purposely break them. She described the laser surgery as a simple process with no real discomfort. The results have been astounding. 'It's like giving a deaf person hearing,' she said. 'I no longer miss anything. Anybody who can do it should.' It took 50 seconds to correct the severe Shelley (before) l7 nearsightedness problems Stephen Williams experienced. Williams complained his eyeglasses used to fog in the rain and slide 'It's a miracle to be able to get up in the morning without having to do anything for my eyes,' he said. 'The procedure is Dr. Jeffery .I/achat, atedica/ dirrctor of As Toronto Laser S40a Cenuv, and patient A#WeJa Roy, with some of the "r •gripr 40W. down his nose. He found contact lenses uncomfortable and impossible to keep clean. 'Contact lenses are a real pain,' he said during an interview. 'When I'm camping there's nowhere to put them and you have to keep them so clean.' Laser surgery has completely corrected the vision problems in one eye. Williams stated he already has perfect vision, even with only one eye completely corrected. F7 Imagine... A World without Glasses Learn about this important medical breakthrough. Guided by a computer, the Excimer Laser can reshape your cornea in less than 60 seconds to reduce or eliminate your need for glasses. Although still considered investigational in North America, thousands of procedures have been performed in Europe over the past 5 years. It is now part of a coordinated sheuey tax er, clinical study and the results to date have been extraordinary. We also invite you to speak with Krnmee, our receptionist, who recently had the vision correcting procedure. W06mak definitely worth the money.' According to the Toronto Laser Sight Centre's literature, there is no evidence to suggest any long-term problems since the first procedure was performed in Europe in 198. The procedure itself is not covered by OHIP because it's not considered medically essential. Patients pay $2.000 for each eve surgery. A payment plan is available.

Musical Broadway at Cullen Gardens and Miniature Village he sights and sounds of Broadway appear this summer at Whitby's Cullen Gardens and Miniature Village. A talented cast of singers and dancers appear on stage to perform the best of such musical hits as Oklahoma, Hello Dolly and Anything Goes from June 27 to Sept. 7 daily at 8 p.m. (except Thursday). Broadway 'R' Way was the creative idea of, among others, Cullen Gardens' theatre director Rob Corbett, according to marketing manager Carol Pudlis. It was a matter of selecting three of the most famous and recognizable Broadway shows and picking the most memorable songs and excerpts from each, Pudlis says. 'They came up with the three shows most people could easily recognize.' The entire performance runs approximately one hour with each of three segments lasting more than 15 minutes. Each performance segment features many costume changes and a completely new set — thanks to a triangular rotating stage in the 500 -seat outdoor theatre. Pudlis calls it an exceptional show highlighted by some of the best local performing professionals in the business. 'This show is worth more on its own than $8.50 (total Cullen Gardens admission price) per person," she said. 'It's as good as any theatre production, and better than most.' "These are really talented people,' Pudlis added, referring to the groups of eight performers featured in each show segment. 'They have voices that can sing up a storm.- As torm.'As summer goes along, the vivid lighting featured during each performance will become even more spectacular as nighttime comes earlier. In addition to the nightly Broadway revue, the show's talented performers take to the stage every afternoon (except Thursdays) at 2 pm and 4 pm for Looking Up — a 30 -minute fun variety show that salutes Canada's 125th birthday, Walt Disney, the Olympics and the Toronto Blue Jays, among others. Another feature this summer is Cullen Gardens' famous Festival of Flowers showing off thousands of fragrant colorful annuals. The display began July 1 and continues through until Sept. 7.

WA The Weekend Bay News, July 17,14 ",19!2 A15 Beer brewers delighted with own results tephen Murdoch of Brewers' Choice in Pickering admits most of the people who first consider making their own beer are attracted to the idea by the enormous cost saving. For the short time it takes to mix and measure your favorite style of brew, customers can save more than half the cost of buying beer from a beer store. For a batch of 48 litres — approximately six cases of 24 bottles — it costs as low as a mere $72.77. The most expensive brew costs $88.50 a batch, he says. Still, if the quality and taste wasn't apparent, what point would there be in making your own beer? People are generally delighted by the results of brewing their own beer at Brewers' Choice, Murdoch says. It's what brings them back for more. Todd Thurston, who on this day is nixing up a batch of European Lager and another light beer called Cricketer Golden Ale, attests to the great taste. He's been a regular brewer since the Pickering location opened in 1990. "It's good stuff," he replied, when asked whether the quality of his brewed beer measures up to the product bottled by large brewing companies. 'I prefer the taste because you don't get all the additives and preservatives in there.' Ps.ul Mitchell, another brewer mixing up a batch this day, concurs. 'There's no comparison between store beer and what I brew here.'

This fascinating collector's shop with the curious 'moniker' is crammed with what to a casual visitor appears to be practically everything one might imagine in the way of comics, paperback books, sports and other cards. Approximately 20,000 individual book titles, 50,000 back issue comics, another 10,000 new titles and a full range of collecting cards are to be found at Gnu Books. Still Janice Truppe admits there's a great deal more to sort and organize because of a recent move to a bigger and better location. After eight years in a location at the north end of the mall, Gnu Books recently moved to a large south -end store. 'We're still sorting everything out. But we're getting there; she said. Truppe's hasband Bob — a comic collector as a youngster — founded Gna Books. However, Janice essentially runs the day-to- day operation while Bob works as a computer catasuahaat. It's a fan job that provided an added boaas for a working mother. 'I OBILE VAC UUM SUP • just basically wanted a job where I was close to my kids,' Janice said. The experience has clearly added to her knowledge of the collecting market. Janice knows what's 'hot' and what's not in the world of comics and cards. For instance, sports card interest appears to be waning while non -sport cards are enjoying immense popularity, she said. Marvel Comics cards and other sets by fantasy artists like Greg Hildebrandt are the big movers these days. Comic books are also gaining a great deal of interest, Janice said. However, the nature of the collecting business is extremely unpredictable and not unlike playing the stock market. Janice admits she — like most collecting retailers — can only afford to stock a certain amount of inventory. She speculates what collecting items have the potential to be the most popular. However, it's anything but an easy task. 'You can almost guarantee if you order a lot of something, nobody wants it. If you order a little — everyone wants it,' she said with a chuckle. 'You try to guess — and hope.' While Gnu Books doesn't purchase a Creat deal of used material from customers, Janice is always on the lookout for science fiction and western novels to trade. Comic collectors who order a specific amount of material are entitled to up to a 20 per cent discount. No query concerning Gnu Books would be complete without some explanation of the unusual and 'catchy' name for the business. Janice laughs when the question of the name's origin is put to her. There's no great mystery, she says. 'I can't even remember. We were just 'goofing' around one night and thought of it.' dmmo va" Then'a a world of old and new cowls" at Gras Boob in Ajax.

The Weekend Bay News, July 17,18,19,1992 A19 Local quality builder's reputation established Whether it's a lower-priced link unit designed for a first-time buyer, or a more stately single- family detached model, there's virtually no difference in quality when it comes to a Halminen home. This homebuilder and developer since 1973 has striven to maintain the same level of top-notch workmanship — regardless of the type and style of home constructed. "A buyer can expect the same level of quality right across our product range,' assures Paul Halminen, part of a triumvirate of brothers who still run the family business established by their father. Sagewood on Waverley Road in Bowmanville, an approximately 35 -unit development, is a continuation of a Halminen Home quality tradition. 'We are a local builder. We've been in the Bowmanville-Courticearea since we started," Paul Halminen said. While the Bowmanville project is nearing completion, there's still time to buy into this impressive neighborhood. 'W*e have approximately 22 single-family, 50 -ft. -lot homes still available,' he said, explaining most are "oversized* lots boasting approximately 200 -ft. depths. 'There are a number of homes already built and ready to move into.' smaller link home. geared to fiat -time Peter Wokhak Brothers Paul and John Halminen stand in front of one of their many model homes. buyers aren't much different from the constructed larger units when it comes to quality touches. 'W'e've built in a lot of value features that we put into larger homes as well,' Halminen said. Included are features like oak stair balustrades, hand rails and kitchen cupboards, brass -lever door hardware, colonial baseboards and trim. The quality features of Halminen Homes single-family units are incomparable. Each room is designed to provide quick and easy access. Every window constructed has been strategically placed to capture as much sunlit as possible, he says. Other features include 'tri -car' garages (that provide storage for virtually anything), a main -floor laundry room, interlocking brick walkways, built-in dishwashers, quality landscaping, distinctive exterior designs featuring co-ordinated color and clay brick construction, and much, much more. Halminen Homes also have a direct hand in the construction materials used. l subsidiary company called Halco BUildinP .Products designs and constructs wall panels and other building materials. Builders traditionally run into problems with door and window fitting when constructing homes 'on site', Paul Halminen said. A fully computerized machine used in material construction ensures things like pre -constructed walls are a perfect fit. Being the manufacturer of its building products also allows Halminen Homes to maintain a hands-on approach to its eventual finished product. 'We're able to control the costs and keep a loser watch on quality controls," Paul Halminen said. Pre -construction saves time and reduces theft of building materials during home construction. Sagewood is a neighborhood that will include a neighborhood park and is already within a block of both public and separate schools. Halminen Homes has been recognized for its after-sales service by earning an excellent rating from the Ontario new home warranty program. The builder's brochures and literature invite customers to shop and compare features before purchasing a Halminen Home. Once the choice is made, homeowners will find an added bonus when the time comes to make that next move. 'People often mention in their resale 'ads' that it's a Halminen-built home.'

During a region council meeting last week, there was a notice of motion proposed by Oshawa Mayor Nancy Diamond to re -introduce a proposal that was voted down two weeks earlier. The notice of motion was postponed an additional two weeks. Diamond's intent was to provide council a brief "cooling off" period before reconsidering the proposal. The controversial Hilstone project is a proposal for a $37 However, Ajax Mayor Witty (who spearheaded opposition to the Plan) says he questions the Legality of the move. "1 personally have trouble with the concept of bringing forward a motion defeated at an earlier meeting," Witty said during the council meeting. "All I'm asking is: make sure it is legal and done properly." Council was assured by the region clerk and solicitor that the intended action was proper. However, the Ajax mayor remained skeptical and disagrees with region staffs interpretation. During a later interview with The Bay News, Witty said when the Hilstone proposal was rejected, council agreed the ProPosal could be re -introduced at the next meeting. However, since Oshawa Mayor Diamond opted to stall the plan another two weeks, Witty said he believes the matter can't be reconsidered. "1 thought it would come back as a motion to reconsider," Witty said in an interview. The item should not have received any debate — only another vote, he said. "I question the legality of anybo(Vs ability to reintroduce a motion that has just been defeated." witty said Diamonds delaying move had less to do with "cooling off" and more to do with inadequate numbers.
