" A minimall acceptable level"
& A minima�ly acceptable performance
By Toni Reme
After fifteen years of
assurances, we are now told that
Pickering's nuclear facility
operates at a "minimally
acceptable level." Carl
Andognini an American nuclear
expert leading a group of experts
who were commissioned to
report and make recommen-
dations on the status of
Pickering's nuclear facility has
found that aside from years of
fudging the truth (lying) to the
people of Pickering. Hvdro's
workers represented an
uncontrolled "culture", one that
thrives on management's
acquiescence. It was revealed
that drugs and booze were found
in the plant and that employees
slept on the job while some
frequently used control room
computers to play games when
the,, were required to monitor
the nuclear operation.
conditions are right". While the
rest of the world has been
shutting down aging nuclear
facilities Hydro continued to
build nuclear plants relying on
their capacity to generate
electricity and profits. Hydro
expects to spend part of a 1.2
billion dollar investment in
repairs to upgrade and improve
the Pickering facility. but with
the shut down of seven reactors
in Ontario. Hvdro may be
signaling the end to nuclear
construction and may realize
that refurbishing old plants will
be too costly representing an
unattractive return on capital
investment. Ontario Hydro plans
to increase nuclear power
production at coal and other
stations picking up the slack
from the shut down at the
Pickering and Bruce plants.
When Ontario Hydro
decided to call a press
conference to announce the
Alan Kupcis, president and closing of the Pickering and
chief executive officer of the Bruce Nuclear Stations, who

experts were to release the of them along with Maurice

leaving Pickering would have
"no economic impact on the
town of Pickering. With Hydra's
announcement to shut down the
"A" side of Pickering's Nuclear
Facility (Pickering's number one
employer). Arthurs again has
stated that the shutdowns "won't
hurt the economy," and believes
that Hydro will spend either part
of the I ? billion dollars in our
community for repairs to the
"A" plant or will spend mone}
cleaning up a decommissioned
plant. In his opinion either way.
the shut down will be balanced
off by the money coming into
the community.
Hydro has been charging
the people of Ontario one tenth
of a cent per kilowatt hour and
has managed to collect about
$2.6 billion dollars. This money
was to be set aside for
decommissioning expenses, but
it hasn't been. Instead its been
used to pay down some of
Hydro's debt. Norm Rubin of
Energy Probe, estimates the cost
of cleanup at about $15 billion
dollars and further states that
Ontario Hydro is already $32
or $33 billion dollars in debt.
Pickering and Bruce stations
were supposed to last for 40
years and it now seems that
it will be closed after only 20
odd years of operation. The
cost of cleaning up the plant
would be no different after 40
years, except that the expense
is looming 20 years early.
Now if Hydro is already
about $33 billion dollars in
debt and the $2.6 billion
dollars already collected has
been spent retiring some of
Hvdro's debt, where is Hydro
going to get $15 billion dollars
to clean up decommissioned
plants'?
John Wiersma, Pickering
Hvdro General Manager. has a
less optimistic view of the
situation facing the people of
Pickerine and Ontario. Hvdro's
financial viability is in
jepopardy \A.hile trying to service
a $33 billion dollar debt. The
added cost Hydro will be
exposed to will amount to a cost
of either repairing and replacing
a worn out facility pegged at
about $1.2. billion dollars,
purchasing replacement energy,
another $5 to $8 billion dollars
or the potential cost of
decommissioning, a cost
estimated at $ 15 billion. All
this, just might cause the
collapse of Ontario Hydro.
It's likely the Pickering "A"
plant may never be reopened, in
that event, why should
we have confidence in
Mayor Wayne
Arthurs' assurances that there
will be no economic impact to
the town of Pickering. It doesn't
take a crystal ball to see that
there will be an economic
impact to the Town of Pickering.
If Mayor Arthurs is counting on
Ontario Hydro to solve the
problem and restore economic
certainty to Pickering, he should
be informed by the public at the
polls this November that this
approach is the same approach
that Pickering's Nuclear station
management took over the last
fifteen years. The same
management style that led to a
subculture of nuclear experts
running the facility. This
exhibition of poor leadership is
just one more rection why a third
of Pickering's councilors and
others are challenging him for
the mayor's chair in this years
election.
As one councilor mused,
"the fishin' must be real good up
at the cottage."

on the drywall using the pencil
and ruler. Then score the paper
with your exacto knife, piercing
the first layer. The next step is to
snap the drywall. That should
happen fairly easily because
you've cut the paper that binds it
together.
Of course, there is more to
drywall installation than scoring

beginning.

the wall panels once they have
been installed. When installing
the wall panels, you should push
them tight to the ceiling with a
board lifter.
Once your pieces are cut to
size, follow these rules for
attaching them to the wall. First,
to avoid unwanted warping and
shrinkage make sure the wood
is drv. To attach the drywall you
should first push the panel tight
against the stud. Then hammer
or screw the panel to the stud,
making sure to dent into the
paper just enough so that you
will be able to hide the head with
joint compound later. But do it
carefully! if you break the paper,
the board won't be fastened
securely and damaged paper
may bubble after you apply the
compound. Screw fasteners
should be spaced every 12
inches and nail fasteners ever%
eight inches (seven inches for
ceilings). Panels may also be
affixed using a combination of
fasteners and drywall adhesive.
If you use this method, you will
have less holes to fill and more
importantly, less work later.
The last stage in the process
is finishing the joint between
adjacent pieces of drywall
panes. For a basic joint, spread
joint compound over the seam
and embed a strip of joint tape in
the compound. Smooth the joint,
being careful not to squeeze all
of the compound from under the
tape. Allow the compound to
dry, usually 24 hours, and give
the compound a light sanding.
Since it will shrink, most jobs
require at least one -and often
two -cover coats.

give it a light sanding. The trick
is to scrape off the excess joint

Getting Kids Wired for School
By Linda Blakely
(NC) -Futurists tell us that
one day, all of Canada's 6.5
million public school students
will be computer literate. Some
pundits are ambitious enough to
suggest that Canada will wire
every one of its public schools
by the end of this year!
But if you're not a
computer -whiz yourself, how
can you possibly help your
children prepare for the digital
era?
Preparing young students
for school and providing them
with the best learning tools is as
easy as equipping your family
with today's home computing
solutions. The family PC and
color inkjet printer are more than
just technology components,
they are valuable tools that help
to inspire children's creativity
while they learn. With these
creative technologies, kids are
able to turn school projects and
assignments into colorf7, eye-
catching visual materials.
Most of today's home PCs
come with a complete range of
pre-installed software, encour-
ageing learning from the
moment you open the box. HP s
Pavilion PC comes with
numerous software applications
that use 'playing is learning'
strategy to get kids of all ages
interested and involved. With
many of these packages,
younger kids can follow
animated characters through
journeys designed to help them
develop skills in reading, math,
language and music. Older kids
can learn with on-line reference
and education tools. What's
more, eager family members of
any age can perform hands-on
scientific experiments and travel
through the solar system -without
ever leaving the house.

How much health coverage do you really need?
(NC) -Regardless of your
stage in life, choosing the right
supplemental health plan can
sometimes seem like a full-time
occupation. If you are 65 yeah
of age or older, you probably
have special health coverage
priorities. Or, as a young parent,
your family's well-being is
foremost in your mind. But
when you're not fully covered
by a group health plan, how do
you choose the best way to
protect them, and yourself,
without wasting a lot of time and
money?
Liberty Health has good
news. Now you can design your
own comprehensive health
coverage without having to pay
for extras you simply don't want
- or need. This comprehensive,
adaptable plan is called
Flexcare.
"We recognize that
consumers of all ages are faced
with decisions every day of their
lives," says Domenic Servideo.

That's what our Flexcare plan is

The Flexcare plan from
Liberty Health is Canada's first
and only supplemental health
plan to put such a wide range of
benefits and coverage choices
straight into your hands. Plan
members can design a plan to
meet their own specific needs.
Build A Health Plan
Customized To Your Needs
The Flexcare program
consists of three Core plans:
Dental Plus, DrugPlus and
ComboPlus. A basic Core plan
meets the benefit needs of most
families while an enhanced Core
plan offers more extensive
coverage. For a lot of people.
the Flexcare plan's real "benefit"
lies in a broad range of
Additional Coverage Options
which can be added to suit each
subscriber's personal needs. Plan
members pay premiums based
on the number of options they
select. As a result, you pay only
for the amount of coverage you
really need.
Reduced rates for couples
and even greater savings for
large families also make this
plan worth considering.
Are you really covered?
Many people believe that
their provincial health plans will
cover all medical expenses. This
is not always the case. Dental
check-ups and treatment are not
generally covered under these
plans. However, the Flexcare
DentalPlus or ComboPlus plans
cover most costs for dental
services. This plan also covers
many other areas that are either
ineligible or only partially
covered under your provincial
plan including:
homecare, nursing,
medical equipment and supplies

October of 1996,
various municipal
functions underwent a
restructuring at the Town
of Ajax. As a result of the
restructuring, an
Economic Development
Section was created
within the new Planning
and Development
Department. The purpose
of this move was to
identify economic
development as an
important separate
function to the planning
and development
approvals process.
Subsequent to the
establishment of this
department a detailed

established which will:
1. Promote an
appropriate, positive
image for the Town
through the creation
of first class
marketing symbols,
tools, and
information vehicles.
2. Promote the
retention and attraction of
business investment
through direct, focused
marketing efforts.
3. Advance the
goals of Council and
enhance the viability of
the community through
the creative acquisition.
disposal, and joint venture
development of real
estate.
In order to address the
first initiative of the
marketing plan, the
Economic Development
Section reviewed the tools
that are currently provided
to the business community
and reformatted then to
make them more user
friendly and effective. The
Town of Ajax Business
Directory, Community
Profile, and Available
Space Directory are
widely used documents
which are currently being
redesigned and formatted
on the internet and
compact discs_ As part of
this exercise, staff have
developed a new
logo/slogan that has been
approved by Ajax Town
council and will be
formally introduced to the
public at the 1997 Ajax
Family Festival and to the
Business Community at a
dinner scheduled for
September 23, 1997.
A key element within
the new marketing
program will be the
continuation of the
1VlayorsAdvisory
Committee on
Development and
Business. This committee
provided valuable
direction and input on the
Towns economic
development initiatives in
the past, and was instru-
mental in the development
of the new logo/slogan.
The new marketing
tools will now be used
by the Economic
Development Section to
assist in the retention and
attraction of business
investment through direct.

The new materials will
also enable the Economic
Development Section to
advance the goals of

Top Gun: Featuring Tom Cruise, Kelly McGillis, Val Kilmer (Bat Man Guy etc.)
Arithonv Edwards (E.R. guy), Tom Skerrit (Alien ) Mcg Rvan (Sleepless in Seattle) Tim Robbins ( The Shawshank Redemption). Michael ironsidc, John Stockwell, Rick Rossovich, James
Tolkan and Barry Tubb. An (scar winner for hest song performed by Berlin, You Take My Breath Away.
Young studs with high llving war machines with even higher testosterone levels. The movie wasn't believable in real terms, but it was entertaining enough to capture my interest. The estro-en
set just loves this guy (Cruise) and really doesn't matter what he plays in, your date will sit still for all the dog lights and macho repartee in this movie.

while Ajax Aquatic club member
Sarah Lo claimed five medals
including two silver and three
bronze. Other medal winners
included Devon Davis (triple jump),
Rub Martin (rugby). Jennifer
Dillinger (soccer), and Carol
Luttmer (sailing).
Ajacian Krissy Liphardt won
bronze in the 400 metres and gold
with the 4x 10 0m and 4x400m relay
teams. Her Ontario team set a new
record in the 4x40 0m.
"We were going for the record
in the 4x 100, too," says Liphardt.
"But we messed up with a couple
exchanges."
Liphardt set the pace for the
record breaking feat, running the
first leg of the 4x400m event. She
ran the third leg of the 4x 100 gold
medal win and is proud of the team's
accomplishments.
"It was really fun," says
Liphardt of the Canada Games
experience. "I was expecting to run a
better time (in her individual 400m
event) but I peaked for the Canadian
Junior Nationals in July."
Liphardt was pleased with her
three medals and with the overall
team track title the Ontario squad
captured.
"It was a fun experience to gel
to compete with the best athletes in
the country," says Liphardt. "It's a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
After competing at the Ontario:
Summer Games last year, Liphardl
became aware of the Canada Gamea
and started preparing. Next year she
has her eye on the World Junior
Championships in France.
"I definitely want to go there,'
says Liphardt of travelling to France
"But I still have a whole year to loop
into that and decide."

"I expected to do good. But
to get a medal was a little
surprising," says Lo. "Five medals
really surprised me. It was a good
opportunity to train and race with
the Ontario team and represent my
province."
Pickering High School
student Devon Davis claimed
gold in the triple jump. He
actually tied his Ontario
teammate with a jump of 15.10
to stand atop the podium with
Bernard Francis.
"It was really, really windy
and I was having some
problems," says Davis of his
faults. "I finally got it on my third
attempt and found out I had tied. l
was more happy for the team
because we needed the points.
"The atmosphere was great
and everyone in Manitoba was
really friendly. It was like taking a

Rob Martin brought home a
silver medal in rugby after the
Ontario team lost to British
Columbia 25-9 in the gold medal
game.
"We were a little
disappointed," says Martin of the
team's failure to strike gold.
"Silver is alright, but we expected
to win the gold. We made a few
mistakes and they took
advantage.
"it was great to play against
the best rugby players in the
country and the Games is the
highlight of my rugby career."

Shrimp Cocktail's impressive
seafood and pasta menu starts with
appetizers ranging from Clam
Chowder at $4.95 to the lobster &
crabmeat salad for $ 9.95 plus twelve
Seafood Entrees all around the $ 14.95
range. Dinner pasta selections begin
with the Fettuccine Alfredo for $
10.95. There are nineteen others with
the most expensive pasta selection at
$13.95. In addition Shrimp Cocktail's
menu offers alternative dinner
selections including medallions of
veal at $ $13.95 and Stuffed chicken
breast at $16.95.

immediately upon our arrival, the four of
us waited what would 'have been an
acceptable amount of time, except that
there was only one threesome seated in
the whole restaurant. As the restaurant
filled, our waiter, Reynold, gave the
impression that my youngest guest's
indecisiveness in ordering her food was
wearing his patience thin. I might add
that my guest was a twelve year old and

Cocktails, that didn't contain burgers hot

I started with the Lobster and
crabmeat salad with endive, tomato and
mixed greens in a mixed herb mustard
dressing for $8.95. The mixed greens
were fresh and crispy, but the trace of
herb mustard dressing left a bitter after
taste. In a place called Shrimp Cocktail,
what else would a twelve year old order,
other than a shrimp cocktail. Six large
fresh and crisp shrimp on a bed of

accompanied with fresh
vegetables and pasta or
potato unless otherwise
stated. My companions
ordered the Filet of
Sole for $ 13.95 pan-
fried with roasted
almonds, red pepper
and fennel butter,
served with fresh
vegetables & pasta or
potato and Mixed
Seafood Spagettini $
13.95 in a fresh spinach. white wine,
garlic olive oil. Finally the kid ordered
Chicken and Shrimp Pesto at $ 13.95 in
a diced vegetable, pesto garlic olive oil
over spagettini.
Let me see if I can make this short
for our readers and for the management
and staff of Shrimp Cocktail. My
Stuffed Chicken Breast did not come
with Pasta or Potato's, but rice? The
chicken was stuffed with lobster and a
pulp of crab meat and asparagus that
was not on the menu. Now, if I wanted
asparagus 1 would have ordered
asparagus. When Colin another waiter'
was faced with the prospect of having
this expensive meal returned to the
kitchen, he politely challenged me on
the description found in the menu, only
to admit that the menu did not mention
that the stuffed chicken breast contained
asparagus. I declined the offer of a
replacement meal for the sake of time.
The Filet of Sole came with
generous portions of sole unfortunately
smothered with overcooked vegetables
that soaked the filet rendering the fish
soggy and unappetizing. Did I mention
that this meal too, did not come with
pasta as offered.
The kid and my other companion
got what they ordered (the spagettini
was really Angel Hair pasta), but after
the meals two of us were served, this
was easily overlooked. The pasta was
cooked just right and the oil and pesto
flavouring made the meal a delight for
all four of us to enjoy.
Nothing special here only lots of
nasty surprises. Our bill averaged $
25.00 each and for that money you
should be able to expect a lot more in
quality, taste and service.
This place just didn't live up to it's
reputation. I can not recommend this
place.

Q. Subject - Alternatives.
Do I have any alternative
other than dealing_ with my
local Natural Gas L'tilit"
with respect to sen ice work
or parts insurance plans''
A. Yes by all means. There
are numerous privately
owned and operated
service contractors in
Durham with long and
sparkling reputations for
fast, efficient quality
service.
Many offer alternative parts
and labour programs to
their residential
customer base at better rates
than local gas
utilities do.
They can often provide
faster service dunng peak
periods and don't utilize
subcontractors. So try
talking to a. live operatcir
and not to a time
consuming voice mail
system.
