Pickering councillors push new plan to join two sides of bay BY SUSAN O’NEILL Staff Writer PICKERING —Connecting the east and west spits of French- man’s Bay with a bridge suspended from two lighthouses could be the answer to a long-standing problem on the City’s waterfront, say two local councillors. The connection between the two spits has posed a dilemma for the City for some time. And, as Pickering proceeds with its plans to redevelop the water- front, the linkage between the two shores of the bay is one of the next major projects to be undertaken as the City attempts to create a contin- uous trail system. A number of different ideas have surfaced, including the possi- bility of a pontoon boat to shuttle community members from one side to the other.

OPG officials are invited the public down to its west gate Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. to sign the 39-metre blade that will be affixed to the 117-metre energy-producing windmill being built at the Pickering Nu- clear Generating Station. Staff will meet residents at the west gate, at Montgomery Park and Sandy Beach roads, and while the event is free, a donation will be collected for the Durham Environmental Network (DEN). The windmill will generate about 1.8 megawatts, enough power to service between 300 and 500 homes. The project is part of OPG’s plan to increase its com- mitment to green energy. Board cool to gay learning material Durham officials say support for union motion not likely BY MIKE RUTA Staff Writer DURHAM —The Durham public school board’s programs su- perintendent says she can’t see local trustees approving funding for learning materials reflecting non- heterosexual lifestyles in society. At the Elementary Teachers’ Federation of Ontario annual meet- ing in Toronto Wednesday, the vast majority of delegates supported a motion from the standing commit- tee on lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender members. It calls on school boards to provide funding when schools request it for the pur- pose of buying lesbian, gay and other materials, noting “sadly, such materials are virtually non-existent in most schools”. Durham District School Board superintendent Bev Freedman said she would recommend that a deci- sion to provide funding should be made on a system-wide, as opposed to a school-by-school, basis. “On an issue like that, we would obviously be bringing it to the trustees,”said Ms. Freedman. And given the history of family life issues at the board table, she can’t see trustees approving funding for such materials. But the first step, said Ms. Freed- man, would be for a teachers’group to make a presentation to trustees at a standing committee meeting. “Certainly, given the history, es- pecially of the Federation of Women Teachers’(Association), this type of matter is very much in line with the types of issues they have been con- cerned with,”she said. Ms. Freedman said in her seven years with the board she has not heard any requests to include such material in schools, and she is not See DURHAM page 7 See PICKERING page 7 Two Great Places!

Durham Regional Police said the victim was walking west on Raglan Road, near Simcoe Street, at 10:20 p.m. when a dark coloured Honda Prelude carrying two occupants pulled up beside him. One of the attackers exited the car, pulled out a knife and demanded the man’s wallet. When the victim refused, a scuffle broke out during which he suffered a cut to the hand and punched the driver in the face, police said. The suspects returned to the car and fled west. The victim, who suffered minor injuries, went to a nearby residence to call for police. No arrests were made. AJAX —A 20-year-old man was pistol-whipped during a home invasion this week after three men armed with guns and wearing bandanas kicked in his door. Durham Regional Police said the victim and a 23-year- old woman were watching tele- vision when the attackers stormed the Elizabeth Street home at 12:30 a.m. Thursday, struck him in the head with a re- volver and demanded drugs. The thugs kicked the victim and fled with unknown proper- ty, police said. A similar inci- dent occurred at the same resi- dence a couple of months ago. The suspects were described as black males, 18 to 21, wear- ing black pants, sweaters with hoods and white and black ban- danas over their faces.

I was surprised when I read Jay Revelle criticizing police forces for using Highway Traffic Act violations as a “cash cow”. We all know police officers do not receive money from tickets issued. Mr. Revelle also said he couldn’t count the number of times he has seen a police car not come to a complete stop, and stated he once followed behind a police cruiser doing 25 km/h over the limit. He also said he “might not stop next time” (an officer tries to pull him over) and added he’ll just “get charged with some other offence” because police forces are on a “power trip”. Failing to stop for police is the law and is how many people are killed. Just because a police car does not have a siren blaring or lights on doesn’t mean it is not going to a call. The same type of person who complains about a cop taking too long to answer a call also complains when they see him driving too fast. Let’s give the police a hand.

Editorial &OPINIONS NEWS ADVERTISER AUGUST 17, 2001 It is wonderful to be able to es- cape the city to the cottage and the beauty and quiet of nature. For the past 30 years I have been fortunate enough to be able to do just that. But over these years I’ve also seen that the enjoyment of our cottages has a significant impact on the lake and forest. Probably the most noticeable change on our lake has been the size and number of boats. The increase in the size also means the motors are larger. Aside from the noise and the damage to the shoreline from the large wakes, two- stroke outboard motors are particu- larly bad polluters. As much as 20 per cent of the fuel is not burned, but discharged into the air and water. Studies have shown these emissions produce smog and affect the biolog- ical functions of fish, with high con- centrations causing mortality. Four- stroke engines, fairly new on the market are becoming more popular and affordable and are as much as 10 times cleaner. They’re a good choice for your next motor perhaps. Have you noticed there are fewer frogs? Frogs are considered to be an environmental barometer. Culprits of their demise are pesticides, migra- tion massacres (road kill), collection as fishing bait, and viruses. Lawn treatments (pesticides) are washed into the lake causing fatal conse- quences to eggs and tadpoles. They also kill algae, which is the main food source for tadpoles. Here’s one you might not have thought of: pressure-treated wood. Did you know that arsenic, a highly toxic chemical, is used to treat this lumber? Manufacturers recommend a mask be used when cutting treated wood. Although it is likely only small amounts of arsenic leach into the water, your water intake should not be near any treated wood docks or decks. Cedar is a safer alternative for future structures located in or near the water. Now for the nasty stuff: outhous- es, septic systems and leaching pits. A large percentage of outhouses and septic systems are inadequate and don’t meet current standards. If yours is one of the 30 per cent, be aware outhouses, as well as leaching pits, must be at least 15 metres from a lake, river or well. Also, watch what you put down the drain and toi- let. Bleach, antibacterial soap and coffee grounds are all septic no-nos. Look for laundry detergents that are phosphate free. Dishwasher deter- gent is 40 per cent phosphate, which makes its way to the lake. There is much we can do to lessen our impact on cottage coun- try. If we are conscientious now, our future generations will know the joy of a weekend getaway. LETTERS POLICY All letters should be typed or neatly hand-written, 150 words.

Editorial e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com Letters to the editor e-mail responses to shouston@durhamregion.com How does your boat, deck and outhouse measure up? Plenty can be done to reverse the toll decades of enjoyment has taken on cottage country It may be a new school year but it’s the same old hot air com- ing from teacher union heads and their arch-enemy the Minister of Education. The dog days of August this last half-decade have featured constant battles between education ministers John Snobelen, Dave Johnson and now Janet Ecker, and their union counterparts. In the past, battles over teaching time and extracurriculars re- sulted in strikes and threats of strikes and the withdrawal from non-classroom activities by teachers. Now the two are fighting over the imposition of teacher training and testing. This is an old issue, one we thought had been solved. Minis- ter Ecker laid down the rules many months ago in saying all teachers would face training and testing over a five-year stretch, with the first group of teachers to begin the revolving process this fall. Evidently, that won’t wash with the teachers, who feel the process demeans their qualifications and status as educators. El- ementary Teachers’Federation of Ontario Durham president Bill Butcher doesn’t mince words. “Our members are not very happy with the fact they have to sit down and write a test... we’re tested every day by the public. There’s 65,000 of us. How are they going to fire us all?” Added Marnie Daly of the Durham elementary division of the Ontario English Catholic Teachers’ Association: “My initial thought would be that the minister must be very out of touch with the teacher shortage in Ontario at this point in time.” Both Mr. Butcher and Ms. Daly were responding to Ms. Ecker’s threat of “consequences” for any teacher who refuses to take the mandatory training and tests. There is another, more sensible way to solve this latest stand- off. As with other professions, like lawyers with the Law Society and doctors with the College of Physicians and Surgeons, why not allow the College of Teachers to monitor teacher training, upgrading and discipline? Entry to teacher’s college is already tremendously competitive and teacher training in university is of the highest standard. Is the Province suggesting teaching graduates are not up to snuff and require additional training and testing in order to do their jobs? The bottom line is everyone is exhausted by the constant fight- ing between teachers and the government. Students and parents simply want the system to work for pupils to get the education they will need to be successful in a world growing more compet- itive each year. We need a truce and a co-operative effort from ed- ucators and the government so we can all win. As usual, issue gets lost in rhetoric Why not let College of Teachers test educators so focus can return to students? Janice Freund Opinion Shaper shouston@durhamregion.com aware of any material in local school li- braries reflecting non-traditional lifestyles. Ajax Wards 1 and 2 Trustee Marilyn Crawford said she assumes the issue will come to the board at some point. But she wonders how relevant it is to Durham residents. “I could see in Toronto it being a big issue, because they have a bigger population, a bigger gay and lesbian population,” she said. “I don’t know how much of an issue it would be out here.” Trustee Crawford said it would be in- teresting to do a poll of Durham public school parents to see what they think. As for the board of trustees, she agreed with Ms. Freedman that trustees would not likely support such funding. She said she is “not really for it”, not- ing in schoolyard conversations she has had, parents don’t believe alternative lifestyles are a school issue. Uxbridge-Brock Trustee Nancy Lo- raine said she finds it difficult to separate the issue of providing more diverse learning materials from other related is- sues, such as combating racial discrimi- nation, a priority at the board. “I would put this issue under the same one as, ‘how do we teach our stu- dents to be respectful, tolerant members of society?’” she said. Trustee Loraine referred to board programs such as Values, Influences and Peers (VIP) and Students Together Against Racism (STAR). She also worries that providing fund- ing for such a specific type of material may set a precedent. Trustee Loraine would not give a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ on providing funding for gay and lesbian materials. She would like to hear from the board’s growth and development, ethnocultural and pro- grams committees on what is already available or taught to students. “I don’t want to go out there specu- lating... when it may be a moot point,” she said. Durham school trustee questions relevance of gay learning materials NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, August 17, 2001 PAGE 7 P Check us out online: durhamregion.com DURHAM from page 1 But, Ward 1 Regional Councillor Maurice Brenner and Ward 2 Regional Councillor Mark Holland say an even better idea emerged during discussions the two had with other municipal repre- sentatives at a recent conference in Venice, Italy. “It is very plausible,” Coun. Holland said of a plan to erect a lighthouse on each of the spits. Those lighthouses would then be joined with a fully-acces- sible suspension bridge that would en- able pedestrians to move from one side of the bay to the other. “It would finally achieve the connec- tion of our east and west spits which is a long-standing dream,” he said. Coun. Brenner said the bridge would be erected at a height of roughly 65 feet to ensure sailboats could pass under- neath and noted the City’s waterfront plans already include an approval in principle to build a lighthouse on Lake Ontario that would be a replica of the structure that once stood on Pickering’s shoreline decades ago. The councillors report the project cost would be roughly $1.4 million. Pickering councillors have idea to bridge bay gap PICKERING from page 1 OOPS!

There’s silence and then the sound of sobbing. If that’s a typical end to a phone conversation between your teenaged child and her or his steady, perhaps it’s not a typical re- lationship. Perhaps it’s an abusive one. That possibility is one more par- ents might want to consider, says Donna Harris, a Catholic Family Services’ employee who oversees ‘Take A Stand,’a teen peer program aimed at preventing teen dating vi- olence. Is your child being abused? Or is your child an abuser? “I think we (as parents) have a responsibility to look at this from both perspectives,” Ms. Harris says. Signs that could signal abuse are many and some, such as isolation from the family, are also simply part of teen maturation, she says. But, taken as part of an overall pat- tern, they can be more serious. Slammed doors, loud, noisy conversations and arguments on the phone, squealed tires when a date leaves, preoccupation with the boyfriend/girlfriend to the exclu- sion of other friends, family and special interests (such as sports), yelling, crying and sobbing uncon- trollably, mistreatment of animals and younger children and behav- iour shifts can be signs of an abused teen or an abusive one, she says. If a teen tries to hide bruising or other injuries, that can be a sign he or she is being abused, she adds. While parents need to be aware of the possibility of abuse, teens also need to be educated about dat- ing violence, what it is, how to pre- vent it and what to do if caught in it. That’s where ‘Take A Stand’ comes in. The peer program, run during the past school year in Catholic high schools throughout Durham Region, was educational, with 650 Grade 10 students receiv- ing information about teen dating violence. The peer component saw students in schools designated ‘Take A Stand’ mentors, who were available for fellow students to talk to, ask questions of and seek advice from, says Sarah Lawrance, who is heading into her OAC year at St. Stephen’s Catholic Secondary School in Bowmanville this com- ing September. “When I first heard about it (Take A Stand) on the PA system at school, it kind of intrigued me,” she said, adding she’d been looking for something worthwhile to do on a volunteer basis. “I could get a job selling ham- burgers and serving people some- thing that will make them fat or I could do this and actually help peo- ple,” she said. She and another 14 students re- ceived training and education be- fore making in-school and public presentations about teen dating vio- lence. “Middle-aged adults wagging their fingers at teens aren’t nearly as effective as kids talking to kids,” Ms. Harris says. Sarah learned just how effective it can be. She was approached by an acquaintance who wanted to talk about a relationship problem, un- sure whether it was abuse. The other student “felt comfort- able coming to me about it,” Sarah said. “I could help this student see things she wasn’t sure about.” Sarah was able to provide the student with information about teen dating violence, including warning signs. She feels she’s helped some- one by being part of ‘Take A Stand.’ “I learned a lot about just how common it is,” she says. “It really gave me a whole new perspective. I’m hoping ... I can help get the message and help to stop this garbage from happening again. “The people involved in it are the ones who know the least about it. It might be obvious to others, but not to someone directly involved. That’s what I’ve noticed.” ‘Take A Stand’ sends the teens in to talk to the Grade 10 students twice in the school year, once at the beginning and once near the end of the school year. They looked at the whole gamut of teen dating, from physical violence to sexual to mind games to isolation to emotional putdowns, Ms. Harris says. The students took part in sur- veys at both sessions and Ms. Har- ris found some changes in attitudes, especially among girls, changes that just might help prevent more teen dating violence. “We actually did see some quite significant shifts in attitudes,” she says, adding she’s unsure if the pro- gram influenced anyone to avoid violence or get help. Some students did come up after and said they’d been abused. Oth- ers volunteered for the program as they’d been sexually assaulted and wanted to help others, she says. She found changed attitudes in sexual stereotypes, jealousy and the realization of the role of drugs and alcohol in violence. “Young teen girls seem to feel it’s flattering if their boyfriends want to be with them 24/7,” she says about attitudes towards jeal- ousy. But it isn’t, she says. “It’s obsessive, unhealthy, iso- lating,” she says, adding some girls now realize this. “We hear a lot about the date- rape drug but it’s still pretty much a myth,” she says. “The biggest drug used is alcohol. Ninety per cent of teens say their first experience with sex was under influence of alcohol and a high percentage say they re- gret it.” ‘Take A Stand’ is now looking for money so it can be continued this school year, Ms. Harris says. Parents can play a part in expos- ing or preventing teen dating vio- lence. One thing to do is get to know your kids’dates. “It’s not OK not to meet whomever they are dating,” she says. Have conversations with them, invite them to informal family out- ings or even to watch a movie at home. The idea is to see how your child and the date interact. And in- vite them yourself; don’t leave it to your child. Don’t pressure teens about dat- ing. “As parents, we have to be very conscious we don’t pressure our kids to date or imply that there’s something wrong if they don’t date,” Ms. Harris says. “It’s OK to hang around with a group. The older they are when they start dat- ing the better.” Someone at 15 has better discre- tionary skills than a 13-year-old and a 17-year-old has more skills and life experience than a 15-year- old, she says. Parents who suspect abuse should act, Ms. Harris says. “You can certainly start to open up some level of communication. Get them to talk,” she says. This will be easier if parents have been talking to their children right from the start, she says. “It’s really hard to start to talk to a 17-year-old if you haven’t been talking all along,” she says. Be direct and open, she says, giving an example of what to say. “‘I’m concerned about your re- lationship with Jimmy. I know you told me you walked into a door but you haven’t been clumsy until you started dating Jimmy.’” Let your child know he or she can talk to you or can help, such as a counsellor. Let your child know you will support him or her. Re- member, too, that if your child does confide in you, he or she probably doesn’t want you to turn around and tell everyone else in the family, your friend or the neighbours. Call the school to see if there’ve been any behaviour shifts there. If you think your child is an abuser and the relationship is con- tinuing, you’ve got a responsibility to report it, Ms. Harris says. Contact the girlfriend/boyfriend and the parents and recommend they report the matter to police and get a restraining order, she sug- gests. “Yes, he’s going to be furious but do you want him hurting some- one even more?” she asks. “It’s an individual choice.” Prevention can also come in the form of showing teens how con- flicts and arguments are resolved in a good relationship, she says. Tell your child about an argument and how you dealt with it. “Say ‘We had a big argument and it got to the point where I felt like pushing my partner but I did- n’t, I backed off and went and had a bath and cooled down. Later, we agreed it was too late and we were too tired to work things out so we went to bed and got up early and talked and worked it out.’ We have to talk to kids about how we re- solve conflicts.” You can also talk to teens about mistakes and problems you experi- enced as teens or even adults in re- lationships. You don’t have to give “all the gory details” but let them know what happened and what you learned from it, Ms. Harris says. Parents, teens urged to be wary of date abuse Catholic Family Services recently held a public relations contest to help educate teens about dating violence. Contest winners included, from left, Sarah Lawrance, Justin Rousseau (poster winner), Sharon Harding, Steven Pitman and Jenna Baron (designed T-shirt art).

NEWS ADVERTISER, FRIDAY EDITION, August 17, 2001 PAGE 11 A/P Autofest ready to roar BY CRYSTAL CRIMI Staff Writer DURHAM ––Local streets will look like a blast from the past when mid-century muscle cars and antique autos flood Oshawa for the 8th annual Autofest. Canada’s biggest one-day car show will involve more than a thousand cars dating from 1974 and earlier. Autofest runs Aug. 24-26. “It’s bigger and better,” said Gary Challice, a member and chairman for the Motor City Car Club which is be- hind Autofest. “People are travelling farther distances for it.” The car show isn’t the only attraction to Autofest, which is at the Oshawa General Motors Headquarters. Car-lover excitement begins Friday Aug. 24, with free admission to the Canadian Automotive Museum, a silent auction of collectables and free Soap Box Derby at Bond Street between Cen- tre and Arena streets on Saturday, the show on Sunday and much more on each of the three days of Autofest. “Last year we had in excess of 10,000 spectators,” he said. “The first show was only 300 cars. It’s gone from 300 to 1,400, but there’s a lot more ac- tivities now.” Autofest attracts vintage car lovers for entertainment and events and because a good portion of the pro- ceeds raised is donated to the children’s ward of Lakeridge Health. “We’re trying to bring some tourism into Oshawa and in a small way, bring Oshawa into the tourism market,” said Mike Kalynko,another chairman for the Motor City Car Club and owner of a 1938 Hudson. David McAdam loves showing off his toys at Autofest: a 1928 Model A Ford and a 1955 Chevy pickup. He bought his Ford in 1963 when he was 21 and has hung onto it ever since. Friends and his wife helped him restore the car from the ground up and in 1987 it was 100 per cent finished. “I like to drive it, I like the sound of it - Fords have a sound of their own,” he said. “I could never sell it no matter how hard up for money I was: I love it. I told my wife if something ever happened to me, she could (sell it) but then the kids would want it because they love it.” Autofest is still accepting cars for the event and for more information call the Autofest Hotline at 905-723-7828. For information about the Soap Box Derby, call 905-576-3210. Spiderman tries out this dragster owned by the Ball family of Durham. They’ll be at Autofest next weekend.

Durham Regional Police said the 16-year-old and a friend, 17, were walking on Valley Farm Road, south of Kingston Road, at 4:30 p.m. Friday when a car with three occupants made a U-turn and stopped in front of them. Two men got out of the car and began accosting the victims, demand- ing they empty their pockets, said Sergeant Paul Malik, police spokesman. The 17-year-old ran away but his friend was chased, knocked to the ground and kicked repeatedly. The pair robbed the teen of his cellphone and pager and searched his wallet, which they then tossed away, Sgt. Malik said. After the attackers fled, Sgt. Malik said the 16-year-old went to the secu- rity kiosk at a nearby condominium, told a guard he had just been robbed and asked him to call police. Instead, the youth was told to go away and call police himself, the teenager’s outraged mother claimed in an interview. The woman, who requested neither her nor her son’s name be published, said what upsets her most is that her son could have been badly injured during the robbery and needed med- ical assistance, although none was re- quired. “He (the guard) wouldn’t do any- thing. He didn’t have to leave his booth, he just had to pick up the phone and call 911. My son could have been seriously hurt. That’s what really angers me,” said the 39-year- old woman, who added her son made his way home and called 911. “If someone asks you to call the police the decent thing to do is call. It’s a sad day for our society when people won’t pick up the phone.” The woman filed a complaint to the security company, meanwhile, the police officer investigating the rob- bery also reported the incident to the guard’s supervisor, Sgt. Malik said. Frank Kazlett, general manager of Intertec Security, the Toronto firm in charge of security at the building, de- clined to comment. “It’s private prop- erty... we’re looking into (the com- plaint),” he said. With a recent increase in street robberies in the Ajax and Pickering area, “We need all the assistance we can get where possible,” Sgt. Malik stressed. “There may not be a legal obliga- tion to call 911, but there certainly is a moral obligation.” The assailants in Friday’s attack got away in a four-door black Nissan or Mazda. One suspect, the driver of the car, is described as black, 6-foot- 2, 200 pounds, and wearing a red ball cap and jeans. The passenger was black, 5-foot-11, 200 pounds, wearing a blue and white T-shirt, jeans and gold necklace with pendant. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 905-683-9100 or Crime Stoppers at 905-436-TIPS. Exclusive Exclusive GlassGlass ENDEND OFOF SUMMERSUMMER SPECIAL!SPECIAL!

Whether your garden is sunny or shady, there is an ideal flowering shrub for your garden. The spireas and weiglas both continue to gain in pop- ularity as breeders find ways to ensure smaller growth habits or different coloured foliage. For example, “Bridalwreath”spirea typical- ly is a large flowering shrub but for the same old-fash- ioned bloom with a neater smaller shrub try “Snowmound” spirea. Do you like the look of “Goldmound” spirea with its brightly hued yellow foliage but would like it as an edg- ing plant? - try “Golden Elf” spirea which can be used as a ground cover. In the weiglas a popu- lar variety is “Wine and Roses” or “Alexandria” which has a very dark bur- gundy foliage or “Minuet” which is much smaller that most cultivars or weigla but with the same delightful blooms. The hydrangeas are another popular shrub for areas with partial shade and as well provide flowers in white (“Annabelle” or “Peegee”), blue (“Nikko Blue”), pink (“Forever Pink”), or burgundy (“Burgundy Lace”). For late blooms in your garden select from one of the many Rose-of-Sharons. From blues to pinks to whites, in single or double flower, the Rose-of-Sharon will provide continuous blooms from late summer to frost. A very unique Rose-of Sharon is the 3 in 1 which has double blooms of red, white, and blue on one plant. Buy early to avoid disappoint- ment. Areas with shade would be ideal for “Summersweet” and “Sweetspire” - both varieties will not only tolerate the shade but have delightful fragrant flowers and either yellow or red fall foliage. Flowering shrubs will provide your garden with added interest as well as being a background for your perennials and annuals.

Clothes dryers are taken for granted in most homes. They can operate trouble free year after year however, when not properly main- tained a clothes dryer can cause numerous problems including: • House fires • High utility bills • Costly repairs • Structural damage to the home Major fire hazards associated with clothes dryers include: • Lack of maintenance • Improper installation (venting) • Accumulation of lint • Use of plastic or foil ducts Odds are that the last time you saw the inside of the clothes dryer was when you hooked up the dryer. Inadequate mainte- nance is the leading cause of dryer fires, and lint is the material which usually ignites. Even well cleaned lint screens remove only 75% of the lint produced. In addition, other things can clog your dryer vents, from birds nests to general debris that finds its way into the vent itself. Reduced airflow and the resulting lind build-up cause overheating by prevent- ing rapid drying action. when this happens, the “high temperature limit” safety switch has to cycle on and off continuously to control the heater. These switches were never designed to cycle on and off continously which can cause them to fail over a period of time. Warning signs of inadequate dryer venting may include: • Clothes (especially towels or jeans) which take a very long time to dry • Clothes which are hotter than usual at the end of the cycle • When the flapper on the vent hood doesn’t open when the dryer is on If a fire occurs, it will often start within the drum of the dryer and be fueled by lint that has accumulated in the dryer cabinet. In the event that plastic ducting is used to vent the dryer instead of metal duct- ing, the fire will NOT be contained with the dryer if the plastic ducting ignites or melts. Some designs of clothes dryers are prone to lint build up if the exhaust is located at the top of the dryer. In this case, the lint has to move against gravity which increases the likelihood that it will accumulate within the duct or settle between the rotting drum and the dryer cabinet. therefore, the vents and metal ducts should be inspected and cleaned on a regular basis. . It is extremely important to have a qualified service technician clean the inside of the dryer cabinet every two or three years, or more frequently, depending upon usage. Never attempt to dismantle a dryer to clean the line between the dryer drum and the heat element. Contact a profession- al technician to do that type of work. Merve Henry, manager of Appliance Centre has seen plenty of evi- dence that improper dryer maintenance and lack of regular vent cleaning can be danger- ous. “I have customers who get their vents cleaned every three months and they re amazed at how much gets in there in that time,” Henry said. “The most common obstructers are birds nests and general debris which blows into the vent. People may not realize that it is very easy for debris, lint and other things to get in there. Having your vents cleaned regularly can be a real help when it comes to preventing a fire. It’s better to do a little prevention now than have a real problem on your hands in the future,” Henry says. If you would like to have a qualified service technician ensure your dryer and dryer vents are properly maintained and are not currently a potential fire hazard in your home, contact Appliance Centre at 905- 426-2682.

AMERICAN OUTLAWS Starring: Colin Farrell and Gabriel Macht, Scott Caan, Will McCormack, Nathaniel Arcand. Directed by Les Mayfield. When the citizens of a Midwest town learn a corrupt railroad baron intends to force them off their land in the name of progress, a group of young farmers join forces to reclaim what is rightfully theirs. In the course of serving this vendetta, the renegade farmers become the targets of the biggest manhunt in the history of the Old West. But none is more notorious, revered or feared than their leader, a charismatic young outlaw by the name of Jesse James. The Rock Island Railroad, led by the pow- erful Thaddeus Rains, is forcing farmers to sell their homes at immorally low prices. Making matters worse, the Allan Pinkerton and his Pinkerton Detective Agency provide limitless manpower to force the railroad com- pany’s agenda on unsuspecting citizens. United by a common bond to defend their homes, this small group of former soldiers, to- gether with Jim Younger, Clell Miller and Loni Packwood form the James-Younger Gang. Their vendetta against the railroad company takes the renegades on a journey throughout the Old West, as they attack their adversary where it hurts most — in the wallet. (Cineplex-Odeon Ajax 10 Cinemas, Fa- mous Players Pickering 8 - Pickering Town Centre). RAT RACE Starring Jason Alexander, Cuba Gooding Jr, John Cleese, Rowan Atkinson. Directed by Jerry Zucker. Donald Sinclair owns the biggest, snazzi- est, flashiest, high rollingest casino in Las Vegas. And, to entertain some of his wealthiest patrons, he’s staged the most original high- stakes game that Sin City has ever seen. The contestants? Six teams. The jackpot? Two million dollars stuffed in a locker hundreds of miles away. The odds of winning? One in six. The rules? Well there’s only one — get there first! What the racers don’t know is that the tycoon and his rich buddies are betting on the out- come and are tracking every move the teams make. It’s only a matter of time before they figure out who really stands to win the most before switching course to look for a different kind of payoff. (Cineplex-Odeon Ajax 10 Cinemas, Fa- mous Players Pickering 8 - Pickering Town Centre). CAPTAIN CORELLI’S MANDOLIN Starring: Nicolas Cage, Penelope Cruz. Directed by John Madden. This story of enduring hope of love is set amid the Italian occupation of Greece during Second World War. Captain Antonio Corelli (Cage), a soldier in a foreign land, is trapped in a war he does- n’t believe in. But when innocent lives are threatened, he becomes their only hope. When Corelli and his company of men arrive on the unspoiled island, they think of their stay as a kind of Grecian holiday, with the war a distant radio dispatch. At first Pelagia (Cruz) and the other villagers resent these uninvited guests, but ultimately, the Italians’charm and passion for life wear away the divisions of nationality and circumstance. Pelagia comes to see Corelli for the man he is: full of love for life, for his music, and for her. Inevitably, the war crashes upon the idyllic shores of Cephallo- nia, forever upsetting its tranquillity for the in- habitants as well as for the comfortably gar- risoned Italians. As Captain Corelli faces the violent reali- ties of warfare, he must confront the possibil- ity of leaving Cephallonia and the woman he has come to love.

JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK (Opening Wednesday, Aug. 22) Starring Jason Mewes, Kevin Smith, Ben Affleck, Jules Asner, Jason Biggs. Directed by Kevin Smith. When Dante and Randal get a restraining order to keep the punchy Jay and his hetero life-mate, Silent Bob, from selling drugs in front of the Quick Stop convenience store, their lives are suddenly empty. They find new purpose when their friend, Brodie, informs them a movie is being made featuring two infamous characters based on their likenesses. After visiting Holden Mc- Neil, one of the creators of Bluntman and Chronic, they set out to get what fat movie cash they deserve and hopefully put an end to people slandering them on the Internet.

Enter the Pecan Mudslide or the “Slide” as our customers Gary and Pam Pritchard like to call it. Pam is obsessed with it! It matches two great performers, our Hot Caramel topping with our Hot Fudge topping, mixing it up with our crunchy roasted pecans in a sensational match to stimulate your taste buds. In the bottom of the dish we begin with one pump of Hot Fudge followed by a pump of Hot Caramel and a sprinkle of our premium roasted southern pecans. We always use the best, no generic ever. You don’t know how many times I have wanted to start right there and just spoon up the Hot Fudge, Caramel and pecans! Then we spindle in the rich creamy DQ soft serve finishing it with our patented DQ curl. (yes patented, no one else in the world can use our curl except DQ.) Now we pump on more Hot Fudge and Caramel and let it “Slide” down around that heaping mound of soft serve and then sprinkle on more pecans. If you want a real taste explosion try your “Slide” topped with our chilled whipped cream topping. Bring this complete article until August 31st, 2001 and I’ll give you a free “Slide” when you buy one at regular price. I’ll throw in the whipped cream free on both too if you request it.

NEWS ADVERTISER BILLBOARD August 17, 2001 Chinese teachers choose Durham to learn English lessons, new teaching methods provided at local college BY JOE CHIN Staff Writer DURHAM —Don’t be sur- prised if a couple of generations of Shanghai students grow up speaking English with a Canadian accent. That’s because 47 of their teachers are honing their English skills in this country. Of the hundreds of English- speaking institutions around the world they could have chosen, the teachers opted to come to Durham College. Two key reasons, the teachers say, are the relatively small size of the post-secondary school and Oshawa. For many of the educators, who teach at elementary, middle and high schools in China’s largest city, this trip marks their first visit to North America. The teachers, 38 women and nine men, arrived in Canada in late July and are here to explore new ways to teach English as a second language as well as to im- prove their listening and speaking skills. They are staying in a college residence and will return to China on Sept. 1. “Our instructors are very kind and we’ve learned a lot about teaching styles in Canada,” says Harry Shao, one of the visitors. “Here, teachers encourage stu- dents to ask questions; in China, there is no discussion or group work.” “They tell us a lot about Cana- dian culture, which we will be able to use in our work when we return to China,” adds Doris Wu. Sharon Babbs, who is helping co-ordinate the program at the college, says the teachers’ im- pressions of Canada and Oshawa are very positive. “One teacher said she was as- tonished at how quiet the resi- dence was, even though she could see all sorts of traffic on Simcoe Street. Many of them remark our air is very clean and they are amazed at our open spaces.” The visitors have taken in a number of local points of interest such as the Robert McLaughlin Gallery and the Canadian Auto- motive Museum. They have also sat in on sum- mer classes at Monsignor Paul Dwyer Catholic High School in Oshawa. A group of teachers have been taking in the sights in Durham Re- gion -- and some important lessons in English -- as part of an ed- ucational visit. Here, college instructor Alison Orszak works with her visiting students. WALTER PASSARELLA/ News Advertiser photo Bay Cycle & Sports HoursPickering 980 Brock Rd. S.

The Seattle-based company operates a fleet of four, masted sailing vessels that carry 100 to 300 passengers to ports of call in the Mediterranean and Aegean, as well as the Caribbean, and South Pacific. Sail along the French Riviera perhaps into Cannes, or St. Tropez, into Nice or Monte Carlo. Or choose an itinerary that might include Portofino, Amalfi, Venice and Corfu. Sail through the Greek Islands and along the Turkish coast, from Athens to Kusadasi, into Crete, Rhodes, Mykonos, and Santorini. Just recently, the ‘Wind Surf’ yacht was totally remod- elled to join its masted siblings the ‘Wind Spirit’, ‘Wind Song’ and ‘Wind Star’. Life on board is described as laid-back romantic luxury, where passengers can partici- pate in numerous ways to make the yacht their own. Or they don’t have to do anything at.

What can you tell us about the Windjammer Land- ing Resort, or any others there? A:Many of the well- known, all-inclusive resorts in St. Lucia (like Windjammer Landing, Le Sport, Ren- dezvous, and the two Sandals resorts located there) offer wedding packages. At Windjammer there is a bonus of a room upgrade if you start the marriage process here with Alba Tours. This resort property is lo- cated in the exceedingly ro- mantic hillsides of St. Lucia, overlooking Labrelotte Bay. It features 232 open-con- cept guest rooms, which are appointed with sunny print fabrics, rattan furniture, warm clay tiles and ceiling fans. Windjammer facilities in- clude four restaurants (an all- inclusive plan is optional), four swimming pools, two lighted tennis courts, nightly enter- tainment, 18-hole golf course nearby, and a secluded beach with a water sport centre. It is easy for Canadians to get married in St. Lucia. In- quiries can be made at the St. Lucia Tourist Board at 1-800- 869-0377. Q:I’ve heard just recently that one of the cruise lines has a no-smoking ship. Do you have more information on which one it is and where it sails? A:Yes, it’s the MS Par- adise, the 70,000-tonne, 2,040- passenger Carnival Cruise Line vessel and the world’s first cruise ship to have a com- pletely smoke-free environ- ment. This super-liner, one of a series by Carnival known for lavish entertainment, spacious cabins, super-size fitness cen- tre and nightlife galore, sails from Miami into the Caribbean on seven-day itineraries, year- round.

Ryan May, of the Frenchman’s Bay Yacht Club, captured the male byte class trophy at the championships at the Charlottetown Yacht Club in P.E.I. He sailed in 12 races over five days against 38 other competitors, all 18 years and under.

His 64 total points were 23 ahead of the silver medallist and 55 in front of the bronze- medal win- ner. In ad- dition, May defeated all the male byte repre- sentatives who will sail for their re- spective provinces at the Canada Summer Games, current- ly under way in London. Six other members of the French- man’s Bay Yacht Club competed in the youth championships. Andrew Gardner, of Pickering, placed 11th in the male byte fleet and Myrna Kecskemeti, of Markham, placed 21st in the 34-boat fe- male byte fleet.
