Most respondents have said they believe an airport could bring important economic benefits, and that having the land held in limbo creates an economic burden. "The first step in the process is figure it out, is it airport land or isn't it?" says Ms. Whyte. "We see the air- port as being the biggest sin- gle project that could bring things to our arca like hotels, new business, and big corpo- rate headquarters."

That's the idea behind the new evaluation forms clementary stu- dents in Durham will take home over the next week. However, educators sav the re- port cards won't reflect pupils' per- formance in all aspects of the new Ontario Curriculum for Grades i to R. That's because the new learning guidelines are not vet fully imple- mented in school hoards across the province. "This particular report card will not fully include the whole curricu- lum. It's not all here vet:' says Mike O'Connor, president of the elemen- tary division of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers' Association (OECTA ). He believes full implementation will take school hoards at least three years. That's one of the reasons Gerry Blake, superintendent of programs for the Durham Catholic District School Board, says, "A repots card dor sn't tell the whole story. - He adds report cards create "an opportunity for dialogue" and hopes parents will "make an effort to talk to the teacher." The Province's new report cards, introduced last scar, have been reworked to correspond with the new curriculum. But the fact that the new learning guidelines are not fully in place has made the process "more challenging" for teachers. Mr. Blakc says. "Over time, we'll do well with it." Bev Freedman, superintendent of programs for the Durham District School Board, says, "This time next ,,,car things will be fine. I think across the province teachers arc finding it difficult." She adds teachers have worked "extremely hard" completing the electronic report cards and notes staff providing guidance to educa- tors on evenings and weekends have been "very useful". "This has been the most difficult task elementary teachers have had to face this fall:' says Bill Butcher, co- president of the Durham division of the Elementary Teachers' Federa- tion of Ontario. "It has clearly been a struggle.*' Mr. Butcher says difficulties with computer programs, a lack of corn- puters in the schools and training "on the run" have made completing the new report cards "a very onerous task " I anticipate by March or June most of the kinks will he worked out:' he adds. The evaluation forms, designed PACT vows to probe report on emissions PACT from page I the regulatory limit~:' he notes. Mr. Middleton says PACT has always been concerned about the gases escaping from Brock Voest. which has been closed since the spring of 1997. 'A landfill site. even when it gets closed, stays for man. many vcan thereafter." He also points out there are many homes and even a high school downwind of the dump. which is just west of Brock Road on the north side of Third Con- cession Read. "it astounds me they allowed development to go on around Brock West as they did, and arc" Ward 3 local Councillor David Pickles, who represent` the area and lives in it with his family, says he's contacted the Environment Ministry about the issue and is planning to look into it further. He's receive some calls about it from residents. 1t doesn't appear there's a meed to panic. But I still want to ensure nobody's health is at risk. It's disturbing. There are a lot of residents there, there are a lot of families there and a lot of kids there " DAVID PICKLES 'There are u lot of'families there and a lot of kids there.' Like tethers, Coun. Pickles is wondering about the ministry's regulation of toxic gases. "if they're worried about their own limits then I'm worried about their limits" According to Greenpeace toxics specialist Matthew Bram- ley. it's not clear what a safe amount of vinyl chloride is. ' lucre's not doubt about the fact it is a ycry unpleasant sub- stance and it's a known humar carcinogen says Mr. Bramley. He notes there have been studies of people living near landfills which found a higher -than -nor- mal incidence of some cancer and low birth weights. But it the amount of vinyl chloride in the air is "very tiny" he says, there may be no significant effect on health. "I think it's something people should he N ery concerned about without being excessively alarmed. It means you may, he expo»ing yourself to a higher risk of some kinds of disease" Greenpeace is currently working to obtain the research in question from the Environment Ministry, explains Mr. Bramley, who does not know the exact amounts found. A media release issue by the City, of Toronto, which owns Brock West, states its landfills are all "maintained and operated safely within all Ministry of En- vironment regulatory standards". The release notes a 1995 study at Brock West, hatted on 83 down- wind half-hour samples, found all the samples showed concen- trations of viral chloride well below the provincial standard. to provide a clearer picture of a stu- den('s abilities in order to give par- ents a better understanding of where their child stands, were also altered in response to feedback from par- ents, teachers and school boards after being tested in one-third of the province's elementary schools last year. including 41) public and 36 separate schools in Durham.

That was the analogy Wednesday as Durham Regional Councillors voted to call the Province to fine-tune legisla- tion that caps a portion of business property taxes. Bill 79 could limit 'tax -reform related' property tax in- creases for businesses at 10 per cent this year and five per cent in both 1999 and 2000. "Shooting a fly with a howitzer is a pretty apt description;" Ajax Mayor Steve Parish said. Ontario Treasurer Ernie Eves intro- duced the legislation early in Novem- ber, saying the government wanted to help small businesses facing large tax increases because of property re- assessment. But, Durham Finance Commission- er Jim Clapp said Bill 79 doesn't de- fine what constitutes a small business, and it affects all businesses, from the small mom-and-pop stores to large in- dustries. -The vast majority of properties af- fected will be large businesses and not small businesses;' he noted. "The pub- lic perception is the total increase will be capped, based on the phone calls and feedback we've had:' Durham wants to know how a small business is defined and says local gov- ernments should have the authority to come up with its own plan to help businesses. The legislation is "complicated and won't be well understood by the tax- payers at the end of the day:' Mr. Clapp added. Capping is "an over -reaction. It doesn't target small business." he said. on to Province: Define Whitby Mayor Marcel Brunelle said, "Ten, five and five just stops the bleeding. "None of this capping stuff is going to work. Rather than put Band-Aids on and not heal other patients, they should go out and find the specific medicine;" Mayor Brunelle added. To help cover the costs of capping, businesses in line for a tax decrease won't get it, Mr. Clapp said. "Over- taxed properties will continue to subsi- dize under -taxed competitors." In the past, the Province had said capping would cover "assessment -re- lated" increases. However, the legisla- tion now refers to it as 'property -tax reform', Mr. Clapp noted. "Property -tax reform isn't defined. We assume it includes subtleties other than just assessment -related," he said. Ten per cent of commercial proper- ties will pay less in taxes than residen- tial property taxpayers.

There are winners and losers. Durham District School Board trustees' 6-5 vote against shutting sever- al under -used facilities appears to be good news for those students accus- tomed to their home schools and unwill- ing to move to new ones and their par- ents who fought the closure plan. Those pupils and their families will consider themselves winners. But, upon careful consideration, the students whose schools were saved and their parents might realize they're not such big winners in the long run, that the trustees' decision brought only good news for now. Those pupils will contin- ue to attend schools that are so under- used that the board will never pour money into fixing them or they'll remain in aging and overcrowded facilities in- stead of learning in new institutions. That's because the slim majority of trustees who voted against the accom- modation and improvement plan have just kissed goodbye to $5.1 million in provincial money to build new schools and fix old ones. The board now is in a position where it can't build any new high schools and will be unable to con- struct some planned elementary facili- ties. The plan had called for 12 new schools in Durham over the next three years, with about $30 million invested into upgrades at another 12 buildings. That plan is down the drain. So too are the hopes of students and parents in high growth areas like Pickering where schools are badly needed but won't be built. For example, an elementary school proposed for the Graywood area of Pickering is now on hold if not perma- nently dead. Monday's decision is also bad news for pupils of E.B. Phin Public School which won't be rebuilt on site and for students of Pine Ridge Sec- ondary School which won't get a 10 - room addition. They're among the many losers who'll suffer. Whv? Because a few short-sighted trustees failed to see the big picture across Durham Region and voted against what was designed as a system- wide accommodation and school im- provement plan. Parochialism reared its ugly head as all three Oshawa trustees who opposed the plan did so to save a half dozen city schools slated for clo- sure. They caved in to the emotional pleas of those attached to under -used and aging facilities, voting with their hearts rather than their heads, making an emotional decision that will be popular with a few voters rather than a sound business decision that would have been more proper for the majority of people. The trustees who voted against a plan designed to address the needs of Durham Region to cater to the wishes of an Oshawa minonty left a lot more losers in their waive than winners.

The Ecker hand is a pretty weak one by comparison when she A tale of two teams -- one good, one not At the halfway mark of the OHA Provincial Junior 'A' Hockey League regular season, the two local teams ap- pear to be headed in opposite direc- tions. The Pickering Boyer Pontiac Pan- thers and the Ajax Klondike Axemen .are both betting they'll wind up in the post -season. The Panthers have the best chance of securing a playoff spot after a strong first half. The Axemen, on the other hand, have their work cut out for them after a near -disastrous opening 25 games.. The Panthers have enjoyed a pro- ductive, injury -free first half. The Pickering juniors own a winning 16-9 mark in their fust 25 contests and are in fifth place in the 13 -team East Con- ference several games above the .500 mark. Moreover, they're a team that boasts one of the best defences in the 35 -squad league, mostly due to the steady work of the goaltending tan- dem of Paul Guthrie and Joel Cameron who possess stingy 3.00 and 3.23 goals -against averages, respec- tively. Offensively, the Panthers boast a 1 Al Rivett Sports Editor balanced attack with 112 goals, be- hind only Kingston and Trenton. Vet- eran forwards George Triifon and Joel Johnston are filling opposition nets on a nightly basis and are in the top 20 in the conference's scoring faders with 33 and 29 points, respectively. The of- fence has also been buoyed by the work of Marcel Rodman, a Slovenian who's played only 17 games in a Pao- dxxs' uniform but has emerged as a top-flight scoring threat. Panthers' head coach Rod McGillis expects more improvement in the final 25 games of the campaign. He's look- ing for the club to finish in the top three in its conference and challenge front -running Kingston Voyageurs for the championship in the East. "We want to continue to improve in the second half," says McGillis. Conversely, the Axemen's season has been plagued by a multitude of problems. The club has been light on offensive depth from the opening face- off with the notable exceptions of vet- erans Jason Cassells and former cap- tain Patrick Papageorge, later traded to the Oshawa L.egionaires. The team's scoring ability has gone from bad to worse with the loss of Cassells to in- jury and the periodic play of John - Paul L.uciuk received in the track for Papageorge. As well, forward Dave Whitley, an early -season acquisition, has also been out with injury, leaving the club with rookies to cavy the load. Currently, Ajax has scored only 84 goals in 26 games, the lowest offen- sive output in the conference. For the Axemen to have any chance of contending for a playoff position, their injured players have to get back into the line-up — in a hurry — to pull the club out of its current doldrums. Even then, without more offensive output, the Ajax club's post -season as- pirations may be out of reach this year. says that the Province "doesn't have pots of money for infrastruc- ture". Turn in three cards, Janet, and see if you can get a better hand than that one to play for your con- stituents. Gordon Duncan, Claremont PM Joe Clark? Sure, whatever To the editor: Rising from the ashes of defeat, Joe Clark proclaimed he would re- take the leadership of his party. Warmed-over leftovers are one thing, but I thought only gluttons for political punishment would take his candidacy seriously, but, of course, Mr. Clark's political rein- carnation was successful. The thought of a Clark candida- cy for prime minister is calculated to produce despair in the hearts of countless conservatives. Surely, no red Tory can restore the party's rel- evance and credibility, and yet Joe Clark — a politician who could j never be accused of excessive hu- mility — actually seems to believe he can return the Tories to power. Sure, whatever. William E Rae, X84 The News Advertiser accepts let- ters to the editor. All letters should be typed or neatly hand-written, 150 words.

Durham Catholic District School Beard trustees approved the $160 -mil- lion budget for the 1998-99 school year Monday. The plan will enable the con- struction of new schools and will allow for additions to existing facilities.

Approval of the financial plan fOr the current school year means the board will open new clementan schools in Scugog and Ajax next year and will build addi- tions at St. Wilfrid in Pickering and St. Mark the Evangelist in Whiih}. St. Christopher in Oshawa and St. John the Evangelist in Whitby will get new re- source centres and office space at Holy Redeemer in Pickering will to enlarged. The budget will also enable the; board to upgrade the heating and ventilation system at the Catholic Education Centre and will allow the board to buy sites for new elementan schools in Oshawa and 'A'hnby and a new high ,ch(x)l in north Ajax. "We certainly intend to proceed with our new Catholic secondary school (in Ajax) whether (the public hoard) goes ahead or not,"said board director Gram Andrews in response to the failure of the Durham District School Board's sys- tem -wide accommoxlation and school improvement plan which had called for the boards to construct a joint secondary school complex in north Ajax. "I'm pleased with the budget;' Mr. Andrews says. "I really commend our business staff. We have had to deal with three budgets in four months" The separate hoard in mid-August approved the budget for the short -year period. which ended Aug. 31, approved the 1998-99 budget on Monday and also introduced the budget schedule l'or the 1999-2(X)() school year this week The new budget has also enabled the separate board to reduce its average class sizes. Mr. Andrews says. "Our class size at the secondary level has been reduced from an average of 27 to less than 22;' he says, adding the av- erage class size in the elementary panel is now slightly under 25.

Local members of the On- tario Secondary School Teach- ers' Federation (OSSTF) met with Durham District School Board officials and mediator Richard Jackson Thursday for the last scheduled mediation session. Arbitration is slated for Dec. 9 and 10. There is a media blackout on •discussions, but Mary Brown, communications manager for the board, reports the two par- ties have met approximately 40 times in an attempt to reach a deal. Meanwhile, Durham Catholic District School Board officials met with secondary educators who are members of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers' As- sociation (OECTA) for the third time Wednesday, reports board director Grant Andrews. The two parties will meet again Dec. 15. Arbitration is scheduled for Dec. 17 and 18. The Province's Back to School Act, passed in the legislature Sept. 28, gives mediator -arbitra- tors 90 days to help the two sides settle their disputes, which are centred around salary and changes in staffing and working conditions. If the two parties are unable to resolve their differences, the arbitrator must make a binding decision on the terms of the new collective agreement before the 90 -day period expires. Decisions are expected in both cases early in the new year. The OSSTF represents roughly 1,300 high school teachers in the region, while OECTA has approximately 400 members at the secondary level in Durham.

After that you head for Pontedera. where celebrated Vancouver restauranter Umberto Men hi was horn and you're getting warm. The village of Ripoli, about as long and thin as a piece of spaghetti, reveals a sign on a wall for Villa Delia, and after that it's just two minutes along a country road, and there it is. sitting grandly on a edge over- looking hillsides of olive trees and vines. This is Umberto's star enterprise, a 14 - room hotel and cooking school in his na- tive Tuscany. Each spring and fall he runs a series of schools where guests can learn Tuscan cooking from Umberto and guest chefs, experience family life Italian -style, and ex- plore the cradle of the Renaissance. me- dieval walled towns. have wine-tastings, visit the coast and even play golf. Named Villa Delia after Umberto'% mother, the villa is a handsome and com- fortable base. All rooms have private bath- rooms, cable TV with CNN, and are spa- cious and well -furnished. There is a swimming pool, tennis court, and Umberto daily challenges all comers to bocce, which is like howls. The cooking school costs $3,5(Y() based on two sharing and includes all meals and wine. If this seems like a lot up front, consid- er that am half -decent Italian hotel doesn't come much cheaper, and then you have to find your own wa, around. not to mention Umherto Menghi. centre, at the Martellis' shop at Lari in Tuscan •. Mr. Menght runs the Willa Delia, a 14 -roam hotel and cooking sehool for travellers with a taste for finer things in life. your grub. If you've always wanted to explore Tus- cany, and you like to cook, this might be it. Cooking classes are held on eight of the mornings, and when I was there Umberto was in charge assisted by his two sisters and Ron Lamm 1c, who has worked in sev- cral of Umberto -s restaurants and used to own Orca Lodge at Tofino. Umberto, rejoicing in the notion that when in Tuscany do as the Tuscans do, soon had us grinding, chopping and knead- ing, exhorting us that "if you don't make a mess you're not working. - Ron got in hot water fir hanging the pots into the sink, but somehow lunch got made. If Peter Mayle ate for England, ('Tou- jours Provence' author Peter Mayle, 'Eat For England'). we did for Canada. A Tuscan lunch is right up there with a cruise ship huffet, and we had to contend with the temptation of lashings of robust red wine made from the villa's very own grapes. As for the extra virgin olive oil that goes on everything from the brushetta down, it is also grown just outside. Excursions were memorable, from the majesty of Florence to the walled towns of Lucca. Sienna and San Gimignano. We travelled in a small group and had _xpert guides, not to mention Umberto ,ho seemed to know a good chef almost .:vervwhere, such as Sergio Lorenzi at Lucca who gave us a wine -tasting. Sergio, one of Italy's hest chefs who makes regular celebrity visits to North America. has been teaching at Villa Delia. We could also walk from the villa to RipolI and up the hill to Lari, a little town Aith winding hilly streets sheltered by a fortress enjoying a well-earned retirement. Behind a modest shop front is the thriving husiness of the Martellis, who have a spe- ,:ial recipe for packing pasta without re- moving all the moisture. They buy wheat from Canada, use Monty Python-esque machines to make miles of spaghetti daily, and ship it all over the world in yellow bags for retail con- sumption. What they sell in a year is equal to eight hours' production by a big pasta concern. Not that we'll be buying much pasta after a visit to Villa Delia. Just a little pasta machine, and as Umberto said "flour, water and imagination." 000 David Wishart is a freelance travel writer.

When the year changes from 1999 to 2000, technology that uses two digits will change from 99 to 00. Computer programs may misinterpret 00 as 1900. If your business has even one computer, you could experience business disruptions on January 1, 2000. NOT JUST A PROBLEM FOR BIG BUSINESS!
