Earlier this week, the justice min- ister told members of the Canadian Bar Association he’s considering changing legislation, to give judges authority over children aged 10-12. Currently, only those 12-17 are cov- ered by the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Lowering the age would allow judges to order earlier treatment or other intervention, said Minister To ews.

William Gordon was sitting in the back seat of a Pontiac Sunfire being driven by his mother when it was struck by the truck. William was pronounced dead at the scene by the coroner. The incident occurred around 10:15 a.m. Thursday in the west- bound lanes at Salem Road in Ajax. OPP Sergeant Cam Woolley said “traffic was slowing and coming to a stop for road maintenance ahead. “A 42-year-old Whitby woman was travelling with her 13-year-old son beside her and her 12-year- old behind her,” he said in a press conference. “A truck travelling at highway speed apparently failed to stop and struck the Sunfire.” The woman and her 13-year-old son were taken to hospital with unspecified “serious injuries,” Sgt. Wo olley stated. The transport was being driven by a 44-year-old Montreal man, who wasn’t injured in the acci- dent. Cheddie Wiltshire of Ajax was at home when he heard “a truck’s brakes lock up. By the time I got to the front (of the house), the truck was on top of the car. I heard steel crumpling. “I didn’t hear a big bang,” said Mr. Wiltshire, whose Angus Drive home faces the 401. “A nother truck driver said this (truck driver involved in the acci- dent) was going in and out of traf- fic all the way,” he stated. “I can’t understand how this happened. Traffic wasn’t that bad.” Members of the Skinner family, who also live on Angus, heard the accident. Leah Skinner, 16, said she looked out her window and thought it “o dd traffic was slow at 10.” She closed her curtains and “heard vehicles screech,” Leah added. By the time she looked again, Leah saw “a blue cloud. I couldn’t see the vehicles. I came A.J.

Ms. Skinner said the truck, with flames coming out of it’s wheels, “got my atten- tion.” She added the driver got out of the truck, but “nobody got out of the car.” Sgt. Woolley said witnesses are still being interviewed and the OPP’s ac- cident reconstruction team was piecing together evidence. “It’s too early to speculate on charges. We’re still in the early stages. We won’t speculate until we’ve looked at all the evidence,” Sgt. Woolley stated. The truck had left Montreal this morning and was bound for Toronto, he added. The westbound lanes of the 401 were closed for about four hours between Salem and Westney roads in Ajax while OPP officers investigated. “This is a death investigation. We don’t look at these as simply an accident,” Sgt. Woolley stated. The 401 through the GTA is “the busi- est (highway) in North America. The amount of traffic has doubled. The mar- gin for error is almost gone out there,” Sgt. Woolley stated. “There’s a huge dif- ference in mass between a compact and tractor trailer. The car occupants almost always end up in a poorer position. Un- fortunately, this is what happens when they collide.” Anyone with information on the ac- cident is asked to call the Whitby detach- ment of the OPP at 905-668-3388. ‘Too early to speculate on charges’ ✦ Chief, from page 1 ✦ Too, from page 1 instances where getting younger chil- dren into court so orders for treatment can be made, Kinark’s executive director said that’s often unnecessary. “We have a secure treatment facility in Oakville,” said Peter Moore, of Kinark, which provides programs and services to youth with mental health issues. “There are very few severely disturbed kids under 12 who have criminal behaviour who need forced interventions.” Instead, he said in most cases family intervention plays a major role. There are some treatments in place, but both Mr. Moore and Chief White agreed there is a need to ensure they’re universally available to Canadian youth. Chief White said he believes in an 80- 10-10 formula. Under his formula, 10 per cent of kids are on the right path, 10 per cent are “in dire need of dramatic inter- vention,” and “if we’re really good with the 80 per cent, we’ll push more toward that top 10.” Getting services in place is key, said Mr. Moore. “I think that the justice minister’s con- cern about kids under 12 involved in criminal activities is laudable ... but we need to ramp up services,” not necessar- ily bring kids to court, he said. Chief has formula Proposal would have the fall formal evaluation eliminated By Crystal Crimi Staff Writer DURHAM — Ontario’s public elementary teach- ers’ union wants to elimi- nate one of three annual student report cards to give teachers less work and more evaluation time. Brought forth by Ge- rard O’Neill, a Pickering teacher at Sir John A. Mac- donald Public School and the second vice-president of the Durham Local, the report card reduction pro- posal was approved by the Elementary Teachers’ Fed- eration of Ontario on Aug. 16, giving the go-ahead to lobby the Ministry of Edu- cation. But, a reduction of re- port cards is not desired by all. Parent Heather Hume, co-chairwoman of Ajax’s Eagle Ridge Public School community council, said her son suffered a head injury and report cards are a good way to ensure he’s doing OK. “I have a biased opinion for it - I think it should stay the same it is now. I value the grade. I under- stand and appreciate it’s a lot of work for teachers to do,” Ms. Hume noted, but added the frequent re- port cards are important and help parents partner with teachers to ensure their child is successful in school. Rachel Gencey, presi- dent of the Durham ETFO Te acher Local, said report cards are not the only way parents and students com- municate. She said there are parent-teacher meet- ings in September and if report cards were reduced, the follow-up interviews with teachers could still occur, as well as other less formal evaluation pro- cesses. She added in many schools, daily commu- nication occurs through agendas sent home with students. “(Report cards are) a sig- nificant issue for stress... and there’s other ways that one can communicate with parents other than the formal report card,” said Ms. Gencey. She said the concept of reducing report cards is not new and the ETFO has been lobbying the Minis- try of Education for some time. Ms. Gencey said her understanding is that pilot programs were approved a couple of years ago, but were pushed back because of other initiatives. Currently, Ontario el- ementary teachers are mandated by the Province to release three reports a year: one at the end of No- vember or early Decem- ber, another prior to March Break, and a final one at the end of the school year. “It’s a significant work- load issue,” said Ms. Genc- ey. She said prior to writ- ing reports, there is lots of pressure to do assessments and tests to evaluate stu- dents for the report card, as well as report prepara- tion which teachers have to do in addition to their regular classes. She added a lot of par- ents don’t understand the report cards and come into parent-teacher meet- ings with the report card in their hand and ask how their child is really doing. “I’m not adverse to change, but as it stands for me, the grades are appreci- ated,” said Ms. Hume and added grades can serve as a motivator for students. She said she’d also like to see class averages in- cluded in report cards and less formalized comments, with more actually coming from the teachers.

Lace ’em up for Durham’s AIDS Walk for Life DURHAM — The AIDS Committee of Durham is asking the community to lace up its sneakers and hit the streets for the annual AIDS Walk for Life, coming up on Sept. 24. The annual walk is the largest fundraising and awareness event for the local committee and is one of many that will be taking place across Canada in September. “A t a time when funds are stretched, the funds raised from the annual walk are vital to the work that we do,” said Catherine Renaud, the committee’s youth outreach worker. She adds awareness and prevention programs remain the only defence against HIV infection. According to recent statistics from the Ontario AIDS Network, approximately 24,251 people in On- tario are living with HIV. This year’s walk is at Memorial Park in Oshawa, where the bandshell will be used to showcase live local talent and guest speakers. In addition to a raffle, participants have a chance to win fundraising prizes -- the local high school that raises the most money will win a Much Music video dance and the individual who raises the most will be awarded a weekend getaway for two at Bayview- Wildwood Resort.

However municipal staffers and police see them and other greenspaces with different eyes, as they must deal with the vandalism, late-night parties and other goings on. Often at the end of the season as young people return to school, a sad number is arrived at, namely the cost of the damage done to the parks and what it will take to make things right again. While the vast majority of young people are respectful of other people and municipal property there’s no denying it isn’t seniors or moms or dads in their thirties and forties who are responsible for vandalism in our parks and greenspaces. It’s a younger element that isn’t content to merely sneak a few beers in a park, but must break the bottles, spray paint something, damage trees, or otherwise make mischief. Police say this summer hasn’t been worse than normal. But, recently, a disturbing trend has been taking place in Pickering. Durham police are investigating a number of hate crimes in the City where culprits are leaving racist graffiti behind, including swastikas and references to ‘white power’. Police believe that the same people are responsible, given that the messages left behind are similar in nature. Police can’t be everywhere at once, and that’s where we come in. “We need our community to be our eyes and ears out there,” says Inspector Jim Douglass of the Ajax-Pickering Community Police office. If you live near a park, keep an eye on it, adopt it, if you will. And if you see or hear something amiss in the park, or on your street or anywhere else for that matter, call po- lice and let them know. Don’t take matters into your own hands. In Pickering, residents can take an extra step, as the Eyes on the Street program encourages residents to report inci- dences, by calling 1-877-420-4666, e-mailing customercare @city,pickering.on.ca or logging on to www.cityofpickering. com/eyesonthestreet. In Ajax, citizens can report littering and vandalism by call- ing 905-619-2529, ext. 2273. It’s our community and we should all be vigilant in pro- tecting it, or helping others do so, as best we can. Grocery stores should help recycle To the editor: Recycle, recycle, recycle. Seems we are forced to do more and more. I think it is a good idea but why are the grocery chains not forced to do so as well? Why do they still sell styrofoam cups, plates, egg cartons and plastic shopping bags. They all should be forced back to paper bags and only using recycled egg cartons. Talk to the garbage guys and people still can’t get it right at the street in their green bins. Plastic shopping bags, plastic tops from coffee cups, green garbage bags and white garbage bags still show up in the green bin. Hello, people, that stuff is not biodegradeable.

EDITORIALS & OPINIONS infodurhamregion.com A/P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, AUGUST 18, 2006 durhamregion.com I ’m more than a little embarrassed to admit this and I’m likely going to have to dodge some tomatoes after this is printed, but my kids have tans. Not dark tans. Not really, really notice- able tans. And they’ve never even been slightly pink with sunburn. But it’s very clear, when they are getting ready for their bath, that there are some areas of their little bodies that are a shade darker than others. This makes me feel like a bad mom, a complete failure. I feel this way even though I know that I, my husband, their baby-sitter and anyone else who has had them in their care this summer, has been very conscientious in applying what seems like ridiculously high SPF sun- screen before they go outside. Then it is reapplied regularly, maybe even more frequently than is strictly necessary. My kids are generally inside during the heavy-duty sun hours too, since that’s nap time, most days. It’s not like they’ve been outside at noon, basted in baby oil. But tanned they are, no question. With pale being the new tan, that’s just not cool. Just as the sun starts to go down and sunscreen is no longer an issue, another new summer threat comes along -- the dreaded mosquito. Just last week, the Region of Durham announced the first batch of mosquitoes to test positive for West Nile virus. There have been no reported human cases in the Province as yet, but still, the Region is urging resi- dents to take precautions to minimize the risk of mosquito bites. That includes avoiding high mosquito populations, using repellent containing DEET, wear- ing light-coloured clothing and getting rid of stagnant water around the outside of the home to help eliminate breeding sites. It used to be that having a tan and a few mosquito bites was just the mark of a good summer, a sign of a healthy child who got lots of outside time during the warm weather months. I remember vividly, nostalgically even, those nights in my childhood when my family was camping. I went to off to bed, slightly warm with sunburn, slightly itchy from mosquito bites. Those are good memo- ries. It’s a different world out there these days and summer seems to require a lot more lotions and potions and sprays to get through. It seems so strange, such a chore to me, to have to work so hard to ensure safety against what we used to think of as such innocuous parts of sum- mer. But, it’s the new normal and I guess my kids won’t ever know anything differ- ent. Jennifer Stone is a Metroland Dur- ham Region Media Group reporter. Her column appears periodically.

The Province recently announced $400,000 as its second instalment of $1.2 million in support for the Ontario Agri-Food Education (OAFE) Inc., pro- vided over three years. The money will be used to support agricultural events, workshops and learning activities schools can take advantage of. “I think we need to educate the youth,” said Jan Robertson, market- ing and communications manager for OAFE. “I think it’s important for them to know how and where their food is produced.” The funding helps OAFE fund its operating costs. The group also seeks membership support activities and workshops and gets grants and funding support from specific organizations to help with resource development. “We are a provincial organization so everything we do is available to educa- tors all around the region,” said Ms. Robertson. Some of its work in education in- cludes materials on healthy eating, food production, farm technology, agricul- tural careers, and resources for elemen- tary and secondary school. Ms. Robert- son said she has been in marketing for a number of years and has found some teachers still don’t know about OAFE. “O ne of the big focuses we have this year, because there’s common concern over healthy eating, is ‘Food: to Your Health’,” said Ms. Robertson. “We’re supporting agricultural edu- cation events in their region and we support the teachers by providing work- shops and education resources,” said Ms. Robertson. “We’ve got a Grade 3 unit on rural and urban community, the interaction between the two different communities and their environment.” Other common programs include ‘The Lunch Box for Plants’ for Grade 3 science students. “And a lot of the fall fairs have educa- tion days we can help them with,” she said. The organization also has an educa- tion consultant who provides free work- shops to teachers on their own time about resources. OAFE is a non-profit agency, dedicat- ed to enhancing the learning experienc- es of students with curriculum-based agriculture and food-related resources and programs for educators. Te achers can contact it for more in- formation or visit www.oafe.org. NEWS ADVERTISER STORE HOURS: Mon.-Fri. 9-9; Sat. 9-6; Sun. 11-5 *2008 financing promotion on installed goods only.

Ambiance Day Program opened its doors on July 3 and Ann Marie Webbe, executive director of the program, said it already has 22 clients. “There’s definitely a need for it in the community,” Ms. Webbe said. The car wash and barbecue, she said, will raise funds for the hiring of additional staff to open up more spots for clients. “All of our clients will be participating in it,” Ms. Webbe said. “We will wash the car for a donation. It will be lots of fun.” The fundraiser is on Aug. 19 at the north- east corner of the Harwood Mall from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. All proceeds will go toward programs for special needs individuals. Ambiance Day Program is at 314 Har- wood Ave, Unit 22, and is open Monday to Friday from 7:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. It is a reg- istered charity and currently raises funds through Bingo, slots and membership fees. “We have applications out to Trillium Foundation and the Durham community foundation grant,” she said. “We will try to host fundraisers but (the car wash and barbecue) is something we definitely will try to make an annual thing.” Its regular clientele is individuals 18 years and over with special needs. As well, it runs programs for people 13 years and over on March break and school professional activ- ity days. “We provide recreational, social and life skills programs for individuals with special needs,” Ms. Webbe explained. Programs vary from lessons in meal preparation to grocery shopping, reading, writing, arts and crafts and horticultural events. “We try to give them the skills to be able to assist at home in any way they can,” Ms. Webbe said. Ambiance Day Program is also seek- ing volunteers to assist in running its pro- grams. To register for all-year programs or vol- unteer, call 905-428-6402.

Police were called to the Wal-Mart store on Brock Road and Pickering Parkway on Saturday at 8:30 p.m. after a man was observed with a large inflat- able pool. An off-duty police officer fol- lowed the man to an address on the Pickering-Uxbridge Townline after he saw a brown pickup truck with its li- cence plate covered leaving the store at high speed. Two officers then went to the res- idence. Police say the man became combative and struggled with officers on the front yard and the ditch in front of the residence. Additional officers were called to the scene. The suspect, David Michael Har- ris, was taken into custody after being tasered several times. A female pas- senger was arrested without incident. One officer was treated for a bro- ken arm and another officer suffered a hand injury as a result of the struggle with the male suspect, police say. Mr. Harris is charged with assault causing bodily harm, assault with in- tent to resist, and assaulting police, as well as theft and possession under. Ida Sagi, 35, of Stouffville, is charged with theft and possession under. Anyone with information regarding this incident is asked to contact the Ajax/Pickering community police at 905-579-1520 ext. 2524 or anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477. D onation torched AJAX — A pile of clothes left as a do- nation in front of the Goodwill store in Ajax was set on fire early Monday morn- ing. Police say the fire started shortly be- fore 4:30 a.m. in front of the large Bayly Street store. Firefighters were able to quickly con- tain and extinguish the fire, but not before it caused $8,000 worth of damage. Police say all of the damage was confined to the exterior of the building where three large storefront windows will need to be re- placed and smoke damage cleaned up. Police say the cause of the fire is suspi- cious. Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call Durham Re- gional Police at 905-579-1520 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS. %"""## #!#)!&&%" !%! (!" $#$!((!"

The Original Bad Boy Mel! As everyone in Whitby is aware, the original Bad Boy is back. And, the beloved Mel Lastman will once again be front and centre in the new rebranded company. Now called ‘Lastman’s Bad Boy’, the affable Mel Lastman will make a special appearance at the Whitby location this Saturday, August 19. Mel, Toronto’s former mayor, has returned to the company as Hon- ourary Chairman, a company he founded in 1955. What will he be doing in Whitby this Saturday? “I’m in charge of cutting prices,” exclaimed Mel. “I want to really make sure that everybody is looked after really, really well and I want to make sure that everyone gets the lowest price possible!” Mel Lastman, who served as Mayor of North York for 28 years and another six as mayor of the Mega City of Toronto, said being Honorary Chairman is “a better job than I had because everybody goes out happy.” “The only people who aren’t happy now are the ones who drive behind me,” said the 73- year-old Mel. Mel also confi rmed that he’s the longest-serving mayor of any large city “in the world” and “I always had a chauffeur. I had one for 34 years,” he reported. When the municipalities of Toronto merged in amalgamation in 1997, Mel called it the “largest merger in Canadian history. We had to hire all new staff,” he pointed out. Mel said he’ll be at the Whitby location, 1540 Dundas St. E., from 11 a.m. for “about four or fi ve hours. Nobody will walk out without buying,” he predicted. “If they shop, they will know there is no lower price left.” As Honorary Chairman of Last- man’s Bad Boy, he said his main function is “pricing and service. I’m making sure everybody gets serviced and looked after, after they purchase.” “Lastman’s Bad Boy offers only factory au- thorized service on ev- erything. The guy who fi xes it has all the parts. And that’s the only way to operate and we’ve al- ways operated this way,” he pointed out. At a special party at the Lobby Restaurant on Bloor St. W. in Toronto on May 15, the new name of ‘Lastman’s Bad Boy’ was announced and Mel’s son Blayne, Bad Boy’s Chairman and CEO, announced that the former mayor was returning to the company as Honourary Chairman – a com- pany he founded in 1955. Mel will be taking centre stage in upcoming advertising campaigns shouting his famous slogan “Who’s better than Bad Boy? Nooobody!” Blayne announced that he hopes to open stores in Hamilton, London and Kitchener with future plans to franchise additional stores. After six years as mayor of To- ronto, Mel decided not to run and retired in 2003. “But now I’m back at Bad Boy again!” See Mel up close and person- al this Saturday at the Whitby location, 1540 Dundas St. E.

Across Canada these integrative treatment facilities are attaining results from their multidisciplinary approach where others have failed. The success rate is unbelievably high in these clinics, and many individuals have even avoided invasive surgeries and many are living a better quality of life. The degree of muscular relaxation, increased joint mobility, and overall pain relief is outstanding. Case studies and treatments were initially performed in India (New Delhi), Edmonton, Alberta, and then the Greater Toronto region with remarkable results. In the GTA, clinics are now located in Mississauga, North York, and Scarborough, with a brand new location being set up in Oakville because demand is has been so high. All you need to do is call and ask if your condition can be treated. The concept of “Zy”, or Intracare (intermeshing) of health services is the main premise of Zygenix Health Groups. This approach is centered around the fact that our body relies on multiple systems to work properly to avoid and recover from illness. The goal is to pinpoint the source of the patient’s condition through Zygenix’ thorough testing, and to determine the optimal treatment protocol for the patient so that the person can recover quickly and naturally through the treatments. For both minor conditions, and more severe conditions, the goal is also to correct the problem, rather than temporarily relieving the pain. Zygenix Health Groups employs a “team of doctors” approach. This allows different treatments to complement each other for maximal result. The clinics have a number of beneficial effects that no other clinics provide. They use a unique combination of manual treatments resulting in relaxed muscles, improved nerve function, increased mobility, and reduced pain. ZyGenix Health Group practitioners treat chronic conditions of the nerve, muscle, bone, joint, and tissues. These treatments, combined with strengthening and conditioning, cervical traction systems, precision-point therapy, and technologically advanced laser therapy and other high-tech modalities, gives the patient maximum pain relief and provides the patient with a long term answer for their chronic pain conditions. CHRONIC PAIN: How do we treat it? Pa tients suffering from chronic pain conditions often have seen many doctors, practitioners, and have undergone many different therapies. They suffer from physical pain, and they also have a chemical and psychological component to their pain, which are often neglected or overlooked by other facilities. ZyGenix treatment centers deal with the physical aspects of the nerve, muscle, bone, joint, and tissue as well as the nutritional and psychological components to chronic pain conditions. PHYSICAL: Nerve, Muscle, Bone, Joint, and Tissue conditions. CHEMICAL: The chemistry of the body changes with inflammation and pain. Chronic conditions are often associated with metabolic changes such as obesity and malnutrition. PSYCHOLOGICAL: Chronic pain alters your cognition (thinking) leading to irritability and moodiness, depression, anxiety, stress and other psychological conditions which can have an impact on your family and social spheres. This will further aggravate your condition of pain. Each treatment plan is individualized and builds on the last and after a series of treatment, a long lasting relief of symptoms is noted as treatment is centered on correcting the root cause of the problem. The nutritional and psychological components allow for a more complete care. Pa tients find that following a treatment they have less stress, feel more relaxed and have a sense of well-being due to the fact there is a release of natural opiates called endorphins, which are elevated significantly during a treatment. ZyGenix Health Group is one of the first treatment systems to provide fully integrative care in Western Canada; integrating common used Eastern and We stern treatments systems. Specific conditions are treated from an Eastern and Western perspective with specific groups of muscles in combination with a nutritional assessment that correlates all aspects of health. These treatments give the patient maximum pain relief and provide the patient with a long term solution for their pain, because of the individualized treatment system provided by Zygenix’ based on their clinical findings. When you should call us? Pain relief and restoration of functioning are attained for such conditions as: neck pain, upper and low back pain, headaches (migraines), carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, thoracic outlet syndrome, (numbness and tingling of the arm and hand), tendonitis (tennis and golfers elbow), plantar fascitis (pain at the bottom of the foot), sports injuries, whiplash, TMJ, asthma, sciatica (pain and tingling to the buttock and leg), arthritis, torticollis (wry neck), sprain and strain injuries as well as the soft tissue component of almost any condition involving the nerve, bone, joint, muscle, or tissue. Many patients deemed as potential surgical candidates have avoided or prolonged the need for surgery with the “Zy” approach. The reality is that most people wait too long and the problems keep getting worse leading to increased suffering. ZyGenix doctors are available at various clinics around the greater Toronto area to help you with your concern. An appointment can be made by calling 905-803-0222. All you need to do is call and ask if your condition is treatable. ZyGenix treatments may be fully or partially covered by health plans through work and insurance. The staff of highly trained will take the time to listen to concerns, answer questions, and to help people understand that they don’t have to live with pain. WHY LIVE IN PAIN?

THE NEWS ADVERTISER, August 18, 2006 PAGE 13 Pdurhamregion.com Port Perry’s Alexandra Haagaard racks up $15,000 in university scholarships By Crystal Crimi Staff Writer DURHAM — Ever since Alexandra Haagaard heard a bank teller proudly talk- ing about her nephew’s ac- ademic success, she decid- ed that’s what she wanted for herself. And as she gets ready to attend the University of To ronto, success is what the Port Perry High School student has achieved. Her 98.3 per cent average was this year’s highest in the Durham District School Board. “I’m not surprised by the mark, but I’m surprised it was the highest,” she said. “I was really happy, I couldn’t scream because I was at work,” said Alexan- dra. With courses including biology, algebra, geometry, chemistry, calculus, phys- ics and visual arts, Alex- andra managed to bring up the 94 and 95 per cent averages she had achieved in previous years. “I studied pretty well every night,” said Alexan- dra. “I definitely worked on time management.” No matter what she was working on, she said she always tried to get herself interested in her work. For biology, she did a project on Alzheimer’s dis- ease and went really in- depth to get a higher mark. “I try to go above and beyond the expectations of the assignment,” said Alex- andra. She said she wanted to be proud of the work she did in high school and wanted to ensure accep- tance into post-secondary school. “My parents thought I was crazy, but I still wor- ried,” she added. “I worried that I wouldn’t be accepted.” Accepted into the Uni- versity of Toronto’s life sci- ence program, Alexandra also received two scholar- ships: $5,000 for one year and $10,000 over four years. She will be working to- ward a career in medical research. Alexandra said she was inspired to pursue the field because she has a blood disorder and has had to go to The Hospital for Sick Children for regular tests and monitoring since she was four years old. “(Staff members) were great,” she said, adding they were an inspiration. Other academic chal- lenges she faced include a University of Toronto na- tional biology contest, in which she placed 39 out of 7,000, and a chemistry 13 exam run by Waterloo University. Her hobbies include art and painting, another edu- cation path she considered pursuing. Over the summer, Alex- andra is working in a lab involved in membrane re- search, which she first en- countered through a Uni- versity of Toronto mentor- ship program. Designing and creating jewelry for a craft gallery is also among her current jobs. durhamregion.comA/P PAGE 14 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, August 18, 2006 REGISTER ONLINE NOW OVER 200 COURSES TO CHOOSE FROM GO TO THE WEBSITE FOR A COMPLETE LISTING 120 Centre St. S., Oshawa 13 TERRIFIC COURSES BEING OFFERED AT 50% OFF www.dce.ca Register online at Durham Continuing Education REGISTER WITH A FRIEND AND GET 2 FOR 1 OR COME ON YOUR OWN, MAKE NEW FRIENDS AND SAVE 50% REGISTER ONLINE NOW 2 FOR 1 OFFER EXPIRES AUGUST 31 AT MIDNIGHT Financial Planning for the Future Making Sense of Money and Credit Workplace Hazardous Materials Information Systems (WHMIS) Cake Decorating Level 1 Fun Felted Bags Scrapbooking Self Defence for Women Refl exology Workshop Sign Language for Babies Love to Travel Photography 1 Beginners African Drumming Beginner Team: Street Smart Kid!

Durham man found guilty of tax evasion Business owner failed to declare over half a million in sales over two-year period DURHAM — On Aug. 11, the Ontario Court of Justice found Clive Devers guilty of tax eva- sion. The Pickering resident was fined a total of $81,840, which he must pay within 12 months. An international management consultant and owner of C D Enterprises, Mr. Devers pleaded guilty to making false or decep- tive statements on his personal income tax and GST returns be- tween Jan. 1, 2000 and Dec. 31, 2001. On his personal income tax re- turn, Mr. Devers did not declare $594,031 in sales during that pe- riod. By doing so, he evaded paying $142,752 in federal income tax, and $19,663 in GST. “Canadian taxpayers must have confidence in the fairness of the tax system,” said Michel Dorais, Commissioner of The Canada Revenue Agency (CRA). “To maintain that confidence, the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA) is determined to hold tax evaders accountable for their ac- tions.” When corporations or people are convicted of tax evasion they are liable for the full amount owing, plus interest, and any CRA-imposed penalties. The Income Tax Act, along with the Excise Tax Act, gives the CRA, in cases of extreme negligence, the authority to assess a penalty of up to 50 per cent of the im- properly claimed benefit or un- paid tax. Furthermore, the court may impose fines of 50 to 200 per cent of the evaded tax amount and sentence the offender to jail for up to two years.

Once a year the two clubs get together to showcase their skills and compete against one other. But CBS says they must err on the side of safety By Jennifer Stone Staff Writer DURHAM — Jackie Johnston felt like she’d been “fired” after receiving a letter from Cana- dian Blood Services (CBS) in- dicating that a false positive on a screening test means she’ll never be able to donate blood again. But, Canadian Blood Servic- es says, as disappointing as it is to the individual donor, they must err on the side of cau- tion when it comes to keeping Canada’s blood supply system safe. Ms. Johnston, a Whitby mother of four who just re- sumed donating earlier this year, said she was shocked to receive the letter, which indi- cated that though preliminary screening gave a positive re- sult for a virus, more sensitive screening showed her blood to be negative for it. “I used to be a regular donor before my kids were born, and this year I started again. I do- nated three times in the last six months -- and now, it looks like I’ve been fired,” said Ms. Johnston. The false positive has a life- time worth of repercussions, she said. “A nybody who has a positive result to any initial screening can’t donate blood for the rest of their life,” said Ms. Johnston. “I was totally shocked to hear that.” But, CBS has no choice, said spokesman John Bromley. “It’s a difficult thing, but they have to understand that safety of the blood system, especially in post-Krever days, is the top priority,” said Mr. Bromley, re- ferring to the inquiry estab- lished in the 1990s to look into the contamination of Canada’s blood system, with HIV and Hepatitis C in the late 70s and early 80s. Now, donated blood is screened for a number of vi- ruses, including HIV and hepa- titis A and B, as well as Human Ly mphotropic Virus, syphilis and West Nile virus. With the exception of West Nile, which only results in a temporary de- ferral and Hepatitis B, which results in further testing and a possible return to eligibility, even a false positive test to any of the others means the donor is no longer eligible to donate blood, said Dr. Barbara Hann- ach, CBS’s medical director for Central Ontario Region. There are some false posi- tives, which “means absolutely nothing” to the health of the donor, said Dr. Hannach. The preliminary tests “are designed to be so sensitive as not to miss anyone who is truly positive, even if the person has tiny amounts of evidence of infection,” said Renee Naiman, Regional Director of Canadian Blood Services in a letter to This Week. “However, because the tests are so sensitive, in some cases, they react non- specifically with proteins in people’s blood and the result comes up ‘reactive’ (positive). When we then confirm the test using a different, more specific assay that has different sensi- tivity levels, it will not confirm positive and that is what we refer to as a ‘false positive’.” Those who have received a false positive may still qualify to be a potential bone marrow donor, said Ms. Naiman. People tend to take ineli- gibility personally, said Mr. Bromley. “Because it’s such a personal thing -- they feel that this just isn’t right, it was a mistake,” he said. But, “Canadians have told us over and over again that they’re happy with the way we’re running the system.” But, the situation doesn’t make a lot of sense to Ms. Johnston. “I’m disappointed because I felt good about donating and this is just a bunch of red tape,” she said. “I could easily donate for the next 25 to 30 years; that’s a lot of blood that they won’t get now.” -- with files from Jillian Follert Durham woman upset after being ‘fired’ as blood donor durhamregion.comA/P PAGE 18 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, August 18, 2006 5400RPM STUDENT PC BUNDLE • AMD® SEMPRON™ 3000+ • 512MB • 160GB Harddrive • DVD+/-RW • 17” L.G.

THE NEWS ADVERTISER, August 18, 2006 PAGE 19 A/Pdurhamregion.com THE BETTER WAY TO DO YOUR DREAM BATH RENOVATION Wa r ning: Failure to read this article prior to ordering your dream bathroom could cost you time and money. There are choices and they go far beyond the big box outlets and chain stores. In fact, you can get everything you want from Superior Bath Reno, the only bathroom reno specialist in Durham Region with a complete showroom, but none of the hassles and frustrations that often result when you deal with a big box outlet or chain store. That’s because there is no middle man with Superior Bath Reno, located at 31 Barr Road, Unit #4, Ajax, Ontario. You deal directly with the owners and operators of the company. When you deal with a chain store or big box outlet, you are often dealing with two companies – one is the retailer, the other is the contractor hired by the retailer. If there is a problem, you could get “ping-ponged” between the retailer and the contractor, because neither wants to take responsibility if a problem comes up. Don’t get “ping-ponged” between a retailer and the contractor hired by the retailer You could also be headed for trouble if your job is uninteresting to the big box outlet or chain store because it is too small. Or perhaps you want a bathroom renovation in a basement or a condo – jobs that are often rejected by large retailers. Superior Bath Reno, in sharp contrast, is interested in handling all jobs. Take, for example, Catherine Stewart of Ajax, who hired Superior Bath Reno to convert a large basement closet into a three-piece bathroom. “I love taking on different and challenging contracts,” says Joe Beninato, President of Superior Bath Reno. “I guess that is why they call me no ordinary Joe!” Joe certainly impressed Ms. Stewart. “I liked Joe,” says Ms. Stewart, “and I liked the price he gave me for our bathroom!” Other Superior Bath Reno customers are equally impressed with Joe and the rest of the Superior Bath Reno team. “They were polite and took the time to listen to what we needed,” says John Gutsell, who ordered a complete bathroom makeover for his home in Ajax. Friendly Service Quality Workmanship Popular Name-Brands Wade Bissell, who has a condo in Ajax, says he was impressed with Superior Bath Reno from start to finish. “I looked at them after I saw their television commercial, and I looked at one of the big box stores and some local handymen,” remembers Mr. Bissell. He chose Superior Bath Reno after he visited the company’s showroom and met Shelley Webb, one of the partners in the company. “I really enjoyed speaking with Shelley,” says Mr. Bissell. “She was so down-to-earth and easy going and she had an answer for all my questions or she got back to me later.” He was equally impressed that Shelley and the other staff at Superior Bath Reno understood how to meet the rules and regulations for bathroom renovations in a condo. Once the installation began, he noticed the workmanship of the installer, Sam Martin, one of the founding partners of Superior Bath Reno. “I noticed, for example, that he didn’t put dry wall behind the shower wall – he put in concrete board. You could see he used quality materials, he really knew what he was doing, and he did the job in the promised block of time." The finished job was so impressive Mr. Bissell showed it to his friends. “They immediately noticed the quality of the workmanship and the fixtures. They were very impressed.” Mr. Bissell finishes with the ultimate compliment – “when I get my kitchen renovated, I’m calling Superior Bath Reno.” Yes, Superior Bath Reno also does kitchen renovations – and has a kitchen model in its showroom. 905-426-1714 31 Barr Rd.

That makes you the middle man between two companies – not a good position. Tip #2: Big companies have big overhead, including the cost of managing independent contractors who are often forced to cut corners to meet tight schedules. Superior Bath Reno installers don’t leave until the job is done right. Tip #3:Watch out for “added costs”, like a fee for the estimate. Superior Bath Reno provides free estimates, plus free installation of a safety bar – two more reasons why it pays to choose Superior Bath Reno. Tip #4: Ask for on-site project management, a standard feature of the service provided by Superior Bath Reno. Tip #5: It makes sense to see everything at once. That means being able to see various bathroom designs and discussing those designs with bathroom renovation experts – exactly what you get at the Superior Bath Reno showroom. Tip #6:All warranties are not alike. Superior Bath Reno provides a full five-year installation warranty. Tip #7:Insist that the renovators have proper insurance. Superior Bath Reno installers have workman’s comp and $2,000,000 liability insurance. Tip #8: Quality bathroom renovations enhance the resale value of a home – and can shorten the sales cycle because potential buyers like properties with modern bathrooms and kitchens (yes, we do kitchen renovations). Tip #9:Looking for something out of the ordinary, such as a bathroom renovation for a basement or condo? Superior Bath Reno is your best choice because big box outlets and chain store retailers are rarely interested in any of the following jobs: new bathrooms in basements and bathroom renovations in condos; jobs with unusual requirements; contracts that aren’t big enough to generate a fat profit for the retailer. Tip #10:Ask about the handling of call backs. Superior Bath Reno takes pride in doing superior installations, but if a call back is necessary, you can count on us to respond promptly.

When Ontarians have more opportunities to participate in sports, fitness and physi- cal activities, our population becomes healthier and more vibrant.” The Trillium Foundation is an agency of the Minis- try of Culture, and receives $100 million annually from Ontario’s charity casinos. It provides grants to sports, recreation, arts, culture, en- vironment and human and social service sectors.

Covering the Pickering news scene dmilley@durhamregion.comREPORTER DANIELLE MILLEY THE NEWS ADVERTISER, August 18, 2006 PAGE 25 A/Pdurhamregion.com Green bin feedback: Readers respond Cartoon characters courtesy Region of Durham Compiled by Erin Hatfield Q-We have noticed many more flies in the garage and kitchen since using the new system. What can we do about this? A-T his is a seasonal thing most common during warm months. For flies, place a bowl of vinegar cov- ered with plastic wrap. Puncture several small holes in it. This will at- tract the flies. For outside maggots, make sure the bag is completely sealed and tightly tied to prevent insects from getting inside. Then tightly secure the bin lid. Also, sprinkle salt and vinegar mix- ture on the maggots it will get rid of them and help reduce the amount of bugs. Finally, to avoid bugs, put the bin out every week and rinse it out with water after collection. Q-I have friends in Pickering that can use the glad bags and the Bio- solo ones from Costco which are a lot cheaper. Please tell me, as we are all Durham residents why can’t we use these too? A-No one in Durham can use plastic bags. The region wants 100 per cent biodegradable bags. Plastic doesn’t break down and it is expensive to process. At the end of the day we are looking for a Grade A marketable product. Q-We do, however, wonder about other items that may or may not be considered as recyclable, such as cotton swabs, dryer sheets, etc. and wonder if the Region will be creat- ing a supplement listing of items that have been questioned about to be uploaded on your web site or placed in the newspaper? A-Absolutely, this is basically a live document. We are working with a contractor to have a list posted on our website listing what is accept- able and what is not acceptable. We are hoping in the next month or so it will be up. We have a list that is pretty sufficient now but are just waiting to make sure the contractor agrees. Q-How do we get a replacement of the bins if they are damaged, broken or lost? Do we have to pay and if so, how much? A-If your bin falls apart because of regular wear and tear take it to the 4600 Garrard Street in Whitby to the Region of Durham Recycling Cen- tre. The bins have a four-year war- ranty so it will be replaced for free. Lost or stolen the Region will not replace but are sold through region at a subsidized cost. Curbside bins are $15 and $4 for the kitchen bin. The region recommends residents put their street address on the bin to minimize theft. Q- Canadians throw out close to 250,000 tonnes of soiled diapers each year. Why are diapers not al- lowed in the green bin? A-It all comes back to the process- ing side. Plastics are hard to break down and the compost would be contaminated. There are excep- tions made for people with a lot of diapers. Q-Apartment buildings. Why don’t they have the green bins? A-Currently the Region’s mandate is for curbside residential. In the future we may look at a draft bylaw for multi-residential homes. * answers from Stephen Laird, waste technician with the Durham works department Q and A DURHAM — We asked read- ers to respond, and did they ever. After this paper asked for green bin experiences both good and bad, tips and concerns, we were flooded with more than 150 letters from across Durham. Residents were more than willing to share their thoughts and findings in deal- ing with source separation. Here is a sample of what they had to say, as well as some an- swers to common questions. Top 10 list of complaints (in no particular order) • Bags leak and break • Bags cost too much • The smell • Litter boxes and diapers • Collection workers are too rough with the bins • Maggots and fruit flies • Frequency of collection • Shopping bags • Design of the green bin • Pick up schedule is too confusing ‘There is an old saying “ We do not inherit the earth from our parents we borrow it from our children”. I for one would like to leave what we borrowed in good or better condition from when we received it.’ -- Marie McGuire Pickering ‘My thoughts on the Green Bins? We haven’t received them YET!!!’ -- Valerie Silveira Ajax ‘The next thing we should look at is the feasibility of replac- ing the green garbage bags with bio-de- gradeable bags.’ -- Renate Roy, Ajax ‘If you are a person on a fixed income that can be the decision between buying milk or complying with the composting rules.’ --Anne Drysdale Ajax ‘I am so sick of the complaining about the green bins. We have been using our green bins from the first day the programme started and we love it. It’s easy and we know that we are doing our part in reducing the size of the enormous landfill sites.’ -- Lisa Rodd Courtice ‘We will do our part to assist the environment by continu- ing to use the Green Bins and hope to see more Green Bins out in our neighborhood.’ -- Nadine E. Brown Ajax ‘“Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle” is becoming “Re-diculous”.’ -- Mrs. Maksimovich Whitby ‘Until such time as there is a properly functioning bag, I consider the pro- gram flawed.’ -- Philip Jackson Pickering ‘My vote is for incineration of all garbage; it works in Europe, why not here?’ -- Marianne Mayer ‘G ood luck with your new pro- gram, but I’ll pay the $5 and take my garbage to the dump where it belongs.’ -- James Michael Quotables “ ” One way to reduce the use of the bags is to use one big composta- ble bag to line the big bin and then use brown bags or kraft or newspaper to wrap kitchen/food waste, and on collection day, tie the bag and the collectors have only one big bag. Don’t line the green bin with a regular garbage bag -- one of my biodegradeable bags stuck to the bottom and the green bag with the offending bio bag were tossed in the middle of the driveway. I had to freeze said bag for another week due to the heat. It was the only solution I could think of. -- Barb Hume • • • Plastic pots and trays can be re- turned to the nurseries where planting materials were pur- chased for reuse rather than put- ting them in the garbage as was indicated in the listing in the newspaper. -- J. West • • • They are terrible. They are incon- venient and tedious. I wish things had never changed. The best tip I can offer is to revert to the old methods. • • • Don’t waste money on the pur- chase of the liners for the curb- side bin. Those bags also biode- grade, causing spillage etc., Yo u may wish to going back to purchasing the Styrofoam egg cartons so the curbside green bin closes properly, and you can put it out at the road on garbage day and be assured no animals will tear it apart because the lid doesn’t close. If you take the time as a ‘family’ to review the video, read the booklet and discuss and plan out how you are going to use the system, it is much easier to implement “initially” leaving your “kitchen food waste container” on your counter encourages use. • • • We did have maggots in our gar- bage which I believe was from our kitty litter waste, so now we are keeping our garbage in a can outdoors (especially in this heat- no more maggots in my garage where my cars are parked) Our neighbours shared tips with us... line the new compostable bag with the used tissue. I also put a grocery bag in the kitchen green bin and the wetness stays more confined in the brown bag within the grocery bag. My best tip is that my daughter lives in a dif- ferent garbage pickup area, so if I continue to have maggots I’ll be taking my garbage to her house on the alternate weeks. -- Christine Donahue T ips ‘I am a disabled 73 year old lady who uses both a walker/ cane and an oxygen carrier. Wo uld someone please tell me how I am supposed to cope with getting the bins, plus the recycling, plus the black bags out particularly in the win- ter months when I cannot get down my ramp? Has any thought been given to seniors at all in this mat- ter?’ -- Moira Masterson ‘This week was my regular g arbage pickup day and I happened to be on my com- puter and saw the truck come by for it. To my surprise the same truck also took my green bin garbage and threw it in the same hopper. Do you really want me to believe the Region would sort it out at destina- tion? I will continue to follow the guidelines as I like the weekly pickup of recyclables etc., but I have to assume some people wouldn’t participate if they saw what I saw. I wrote my local councillor about it, but of course there was no acknowledgment or response.’ -- Cliff Chilcott Other observations durhamregion.comA/P PAGE 26 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, August 18, 2006 ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT durhamregion.com Jason Liebregts/News Advertiser photo Daniel Wyse and Mickey Brown rehearse for Herongate Barn Theatre’s ‘When You Got It...Flaunt It’. The production is a broadway musical, which also features dancing. It runs from Aug. 18 to Sept. 9 at the west Pickering venue. Herongate’s got it... and plans to flaunt it The century-old theatre presents a century of music By Alistair Lowe Special to the News Advertiser PICKERING — So many songs from so many plays ensures there is something for everyone. Herongate Barn Theatre pres- ents “When you got it....Flaunt it!” A Broadway extravaganza starting today (Friday). According to director and Pickering resident Don Green, the show is a “fast paced com- bination of medleys spanning 100 years of Broadway, from the 1890s to Spam-A-Lot.” The rapid-fire show has no story per se, rather it is “a walk through history that at times can move one to tears, while at others can be as irreverent as Eric Idle,” says the experienced director. During the show there are “more costume changes than (he) can count,” says Mr. Green who has directed music theatre for 35 years. This is a first for him, as he directs and plays the piano si- multaneously, relying on chore- ographer Shari Coulter to be his eyes and ears. The show is so quick that there is literally “another show going on backstage,” as cast members change from one piece to the next. The cast members cannot transform into a character due to the fact there are no characters to play. This makes this particular show very demanding on them as they did not have months to get into character, as would hap- pen with a story-based play. Along with Mr. Green and the crew, the experienced cast of singers and dancers, Rose Green, Kelly Anne Moss, Peter Brocking, Geoff Coulter, Michael Savage, Daniel Wyse, Mickey Brown, and Judy Gans, (all of whom reside in Durham Region, with the excep- tion of Mr. Brown and Ms. Gans who hail from Toronto) feel it is a great honour to have the oppor- tunity to perform for others, said Mr. Green. A show appropriate for all ages, “When You Got It....Flaunt It!” is a “family show put on by a fam- ily” and opens on Friday, Aug. 18 with 12 performances through to Sept. 9. For reservations and show times, call 905-472-3085, or visit www.herongate.com.

Sports briefs AUGUST 18, 2006 [ Hockey ] Kemp remains Royal-ty in Reading PICKERING — A former Pickering Panther and U.S. college standout has agreed to terms to rejoin the Reading (Pa.) Royals of the East Coast Hockey League for the coming campaign. T.J. Kemp, of Pickering, signed a contract that will allow him to return for his second season with the Royals, the ECHL affiliate of the National Hockey League’s Los Angeles Kings. The Royals are also a farm team of the Manchester Monarchs of the American Hockey League. In his rookie season with the Royals last year, the 25-year-old defenceman registered 40 points (13 goals, 27 assists), was picked for the league’s all-rookie team and represented the Royals at the ECHL’s all-star game in Fresno, Calif. While playing for the Royals, Kemp also suited up for 14 AHL games with Peoria, Iowa, Milwau- kee and Bridgeport. Kemp spent four years at Mercyhurst College (Erie, Pa.), where he played with the Lakers hockey team, starting in 2001. During his four seasons with the Lakers, he amassed 100 points (32 goals, 68 assists) in 133 games. [ Golf ] Ajacian near top at senior men’s amateur AJAX — An Ajax golfer re- mains in the hunt at the Investors Group Ontario Senior Men’s Ama- teur Championship in Guelph. Kevin Hughes sits in a ninth- place tie with an 8-over-par 150 (76, 74) after two days at the championship, hosted at The Cut- ten Club. The third and final round goes today (Friday), with the re- sults unavailable at press time. Leading the way is Stu Hamil- ton who’s comfortably in top spot with a 5-under-par 137 (68,69), a six-stroke lead over second-place Brian Jeffrey of Collingwood. One other Ajax golfer, Bob Tur- cotte, sits in a nine-way 13th-place tie with a 10-over-par 152 (74, 78). Love of soccer leads to a spot at New York college By Brandon Walker Special to the News Advertiser AJAX — The young man stared at the empty soccer field while sitting on the grass. Jesse Tra- jkovski was quiet on that day in early August, perhaps because he knows all his hard work has paid off. The 18-year-old graduate of J. Clarke Richardson Collegiate recently received a soccer schol- arship to St. Thomas Aquinas College, in Sparkill, New York, not far from New York City. He picked his 6-foot-1, 180-pound frame off the ground and started walking toward the place where he’s spent many of his happiest moments, while softly kicking a ball. Trajkovski, who currently re- sides with his family in Ajax, said although the St. Thomas soc- cer team ranked in the top five schools last year, he believes the team will do even better in the coming season. “The role I’ll be filling is one of the weaker roles (centre defense- man). I think it’ll be a pretty good team,” he said. His dad introduced him to soc- cer when he was two years old and he’s loved it ever since. “I learned all my soccer from him. I remember playing in my cousin’s backyard with my dad, grandfather, cousin and uncle. It’s the first time I realized how much I loved soccer and how much it brings everyone togeth- er. Once you play a game with someone you don’t know, you can talk to them as friends, like you’ve known them your whole life. Like the World Cup, for in- stance, everyone’s watching it. Yo u know someone in some small town in Guyana is watch- ing it too. It’s a worldwide sport.” One advantage he said he has on the field is anticipation. “I think I can read the game really well. I can usually tell where the ball’s going before other people can. I’m really vocal also, I tell everyone (on my team) where the ball’s going.” He spends about six hours each week training in order to keep himself in tip-top shape. He also runs every day. “I always have a ball with me, even in the house.” ‘I think I can read the game really well. I can usually tell where the ball’s going before other people can. I’m really vocal also, I tell every where the ball’s going.’ JESSE TRAJKOVSKI In September, he starts the Business Administration pro- gram at the American college. He doesn’t think he’ll end up going pro when he’s finished his schooling. “But if it happens, that would be great. If not, I’ll prob- ably open my own sports store up. It’ll sell soccer equipment, and snowboarding stuff, that way I can share my passion with oth- ers.” He said snowboarding is his other great love. “I wish there were scholarships in snowboard- ing, that would be cool.” His mother, Francie Trajkovski, said until recently her son was also a professional actor, having performed in several commer- cials and short films. “He gave it up about a year ago to focus on soccer,” she said. The family is experiencing mixed emotions about Trajkovs- ki moving to New York. “I think we’re more proud than anything else; the excitement kind of takes over the sadness. We’re a really tight knit family and we’re really super close. He’s never been away from home before,” she said. In order to be successful in any sport it must be taken very seriously, Trajkovski said. “It’s a lifestyle, it isn’t just a game. It has to be 100 per cent effort. And sometimes it isn’t that fun, you just have to get through the hard times. You have to have a passion and dedication for it. Anyone can pick up a ball and kick it.” His mother said her son is a role model for young people. “He’s an honour student, but was able to maintain some form of a social life and get a scholarship. Yo u have to follow your dreams and figure out how to get there.” Ajax teen kicks his way to Big Apple T.J. K emp Jennifer Roberts/ News Advertiser photo Jesse Trajkovski, of Ajax, who played his soccer in the Pickering Soccer Club rep system, is ready to embark on an athetlic scholarship to St. Thomas Aquinas College in Sparkill, New York, near New York City.
