Officers, who are already wearing ball caps and handing out information pam- phlets to protest what they see as slow progress in talks with the regional police services board, could begin exercising dis- cretion in handing out traffic tickets begin- ning next Monday, Durham Regional Police Association president Doug Cavanaugh said Wednesday. “That’s the next step,” Mr. Cavanaugh said as members of the police services board met Wednesday morning at Durham Region headquarters in Whitby. “We hope we don’t have to get there.” Durham cops write an average of $400,000 to $500,000 a month in provincial offences tickets, according to the association. Rev- enue from fines goes to the Region. The 1,100 uniform cops and civilian work- ers represented by the DRPA began their job action Oct. 6 after talks with the police ser- vices board’s bargaining committee failed to produce a contract. The association members, who’ve been without a contract since Jan. 1, are wearing caps emblazoned with the emblem 10-33 -- communications code for officer in need of assistance -- and handing out pamphlets outlining their concerns to the public. Among those concerns are adequate staff- ing levels to address the needs of a growing region. Mr. Cavanaugh said the association wants to see at least 20 frontline cops hired over the three-year term of the next con- tract. Those hopes weren’t reinforced Wednes- day morning when Chief Mike Ewles’s draft budget, which included funding for 19 new cops and five new civilian employees, was sent back to be trimmed by $300,000. The chief is to submit another draft budget next month. Roger Anderson, the regional chairman and head of the police services board’s negotiating committee, asked the chief to bring the budget increase for 2009 in line with guidelines approved by regional coun- cil. The chief’s budget numbers called for new frontline officers and detectives to bol- ster busy robbery, fraud and child abuse departments. “We have to keep pace with growth, de- mand and expectations,” Chief Ewles told board members, as police officers donning 10-33 balls caps looked on from the public gallery. “I hope (the new hires) don’t get deferred to our next budget,” the chief said. Mr. Anderson said outside the meeting the board has offered the officers a contract that includes a 9.3 per cent wage increase over three years and other incentives.

This fall marks 75th anniversary of Holodomor By Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com DURHAM — In Barbara Szuszwal’s tiny Ukrainian village, there was no cemetery. So when her brother and three sisters died of starvation during an epic famine in the 1930s, her family had to bury them in an orchard. “I remember the younger children cry- ing and crying, because they were hungry,” Ms. Szuszwal told the News Advertiser through an interpreter -- the 86-year-old Oshawa woman primarily speaks Ukrai- nian. “We cooked weeds and anything we could find, because there was no food at all. I was 10 years old.” This fall, Oshawa’s large Ukrainian com- munity is commemorating the 75th an- niversary of the Holodomor -- translated literally as “death by hunger” -- a famine that killed millions in Soviet Ukraine be- tween 1932 and 1933. There are an estimated 20 famine survi- vors left in Durham Region. The cause of the famine has been the subject of intense academic and politi- cal debate worldwide, but most historians and governments now agree it was an act of genocide engineered by the Soviets to crush rising Ukrainian nationalism. Information about the tragedy was sparse in the years immediately after, but has become more substantial since the Ukraine declared independence from the former Soviet Union in the early 1990s. Historians and the Ukrainian govern- ment say the famine was an attempt to wipe out the Ukrainian population by tar- geting peasant farmers. Communist offi- cials imposed harsh grain quotas and went door-to-door taking food out of pantries. Death toll estimates range from two mil- lion to 10 million. Children in particular suffered -- those who did not succumb to starvation were left orphaned and home- less after their parents died. In March, the Ukrainian government officially recognized the Holodomor as an act of genocide, and in June, the Canadian government followed suit with an act that recognizes the famine as a genocide and establishes a Ukrainian Famine and Geno- cide Memorial Day. Although it has been 75 years since the Holodomor, many people in Canada and even younger generations in the Ukraine itself are not familiar with the tragedy. “We would like the people of the world to have this in their conscience as they do with the Jewish Holocaust,” said Yurij Kalistchuk, archbishop of Toronto and the eastern diocese of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church of Canada. He was one of several dignitaries who visited Oshawa last week for the unveiling of a Holodomor memorial exhibit at the McLaughlin branch of the Oshawa Public Library. The display features 101 panels documenting the history of the famine, and stories of survivors. “Many of the survivors won’t be with us much longer,” the archbishop said, his eyes welling up. “They were only eight or 10 years old when this happened.” The library exhibit will be on display until Saturday, Oct. 18. The anniversary week concludes Oct. 18 with a memorial service at 2 p.m. in Memorial Park. This event, which is open to the public, will feature a multi-denomi- national “panakhyda” service, recognition of local famine survivors and a candlelight march.

The rates haven’t been raised since 2002 and the increase covers inflation. It will cost the Region an extra $20,000 to $25,000. As it stands, Ontario Works (OW) recipi- ents, Ontario Disability Support Program (ODSP) recipients and other eligible low- income people receive funding for their fu- neral and burial costs. Council upped the rate for a traditional funeral to $2,087 from $1,815. A new grave-side service option will cost the Region $1,167 and a simple option will rise to $966 from $840. A traditional funeral includes a two-hour visitation, the use of a chapel or church for the service, the use of the funeral coach to the cemetery and a simple cloth-covered casket. The simple option includes the transpor- tation fees to the funeral home, cemetery or crematorium and a cloth-covered casket. All options include the services of a funeral director. In 2008, the Region’s social services department is expected to assist with ap- proximately 150 funerals. A third will be fully paid for by the Region. The Province will pick up 80 per cent the tab for ODSP and OW recipients with Dur- ham covering the rest.

The closest fight of the night was in Os- hawa, where Conservative incumbent Dr. Colin Carrie finally started to pull away from his NDP rival two hours after the polls closed. Dr. Carrie eventually bested Mike Shields by about five per cent. With 213 polls reporting, Dr. Carrie held 40 per cent support compared with 35 per cent for Mr. Shields. Oshawa Liberal candidate Dr. Sean Godfrey finished a distant third with roughly 15 per cent of the vote at press time, followed by Green candidate Pat Gostlin with seven per cent. “Tonight I must say that I’m very hum- bled, I’m humbled because the people of Oshawa knowing that our commu- nity is going through tough times, have chosen me to help lead them through these difficult periods,” an emotional Dr. Carrie said in his acceptance speech. “Tonight Oshawa chose the certainty of a Conservative government led by Stephen Harper; they chose the certainty of a gov- ernment that put in a plan a year ago for our manufacturing sector to work ahead of this crisis that we’re going through in the world right now.” Next door, to the east, the scene was much different, with Conservative in- cumbent Bev Oda having her victory de- clared shortly after polls closed at 9:30 p.m. With 220 of 230 polls reporting, Ms. Oda had received 26,358 votes, or 53.5 per cent. She bettered her closest com- petitor, Liberal Bryan Ransom who re- ceived 11,376 votes, by more than 30 per cent. Mr. Ransom received 23.1 per cent of the vote. Green Party candidate Stephen Leahy was third with 5,699 votes, or 11.5 per cent. And, in fourth place, in spite of re- signing from the campaign more than a week before the election, was the NDP’s Andrew McKeever, who captured 5,168 votes, or 10.5 per cent. Just over a week before the election, the Durham NDP candidate tendered his resignation over vulgar, in some cases threatening Facebook comments made in July. But, under Elections Canada rules, his name remained on the ballot. Heading back to Ottawa as part of a second minority government, Ms. Oda said she anticipated there would be two major issues to deal with. “It’s going to be the economy and it’s also going to be that we’ve got to start working on the environment,” she said. “The two are intertwined.” Parliament will have to work together, she added. In Whitby-Oshawa, incum- bent Conservative Jim Flaherty also took more than half the popular vote, with 50.9 per cent, with 255 of 259 polls reporting. Behind him was Liberal Brent Fullard with 25.7 per cent, the NDP’s David Purdy with 14.1 per cent, and Green candidate Doug Anderson with 8.4 per cent. Chris- tian Heritage Party candidate Yvonne Forbes garnered less than 1 per cent of the vote. “To have the vote of confidence from Whitby-Oshawa means a lot to me in those circumstances,” Mr. Flaherty said. “You’ve placed your trust in me, you’ve placed your trust in the Conservative party and you’ve placed your trust in the continued leadership of Prime Minister Stephen Harper and I can assure you we will continue to live up to that trust.” In Haliburton-Kawartha Lakes-Brock, Conservative Barry Devolin was an easy repeat winner garnering well over 50 per cent of the vote. And at the west end of Durham Re- gion, Liberals Mark Holland and Dan Mc- Teague were returned in their respective ridings of Ajax-Pickering and Pickering- Scarborough East. Same old, same old in Durham Region AJ Groen/ News Advertiser photo Federal finance minister and Whitby-Oshawa MP Jim Flaherty waves to the crowd shortly after he was re-elected to represent the Conservatives in his riding. Councillors want more emphasis on sustainable initiatives By Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING — Unsatisfied with the lat- est Duffin Heights plans, councillors chose to hold off on passing them until they can further discuss the issue. The Planning and Development commit- tee was asked to endorse recommendations of the Environmental Servicing Plan (ESP) for Duffin Heights, which the City requires before passing detailed development plans. But a number of councillors, such as Ward 2 City Councillor Doug Dickerson, were not impressed, finding a lack of sustainable initiatives in the proposal. “We use the words and then we do noth- ing about it,” he said. The Duffin Heights Neighbourhood is part of the City of Pickering’s Official Plan and is located along Brock Road between the St. Lawrence and Hudson Rail Line (formerly the Canadian Pacific Rail Line) and the Hydro Corridor. The City envisions separate but linked residential areas centred around a mixed- use corridor. An ESP is required before development can occur. The ESP, put together by the Sernas Group Inc. on behalf of the Duffin Heights Landowners Group (Cougs Limited, Mat- tamy Limited, Lebovic Enterprises Limited and the Ontario Realty Corporation) is a detailed document that defines the Natural Heritage System boundaries and addresses transportation and municipal infrastruc- ture requirements such as parks, trails and stormwater management facilities. Some changes to the Pickering Official Plan and the Duffin Heights Development Guidelines will have to be made for the plan to go through. The document has cut plans for two school sites from four to two due to lower population growth (only 7,000 people are expected as opposed to 16,000). Schools will be accessible by bike, trails and tran- sit. Also, five neighbourhood parks have been reduced to one park and four parkettes and some of the lands will be medium-density instead of low-density. Coun. Dickerson said plans for a minimum of three func- tional floors on Brock Road corridor focal points should be higher. “Again, the rational is not there,” he said. The landowners group is also asking the City to pay about $1.8 million for its share of the costs of the storm water management system and related infrastructure on Brock Road. Ward 1 City Councillor Jennifer O’Connell was worried about the lack of road allow- ance for parking in the area, and pointed out even the photos of examples at the meeting show illegal parking. She also criti- cized the three-storey minimum. “We talk about building new develop- ments like this but they’re completely out of touch with reality,” she said. Ward 1 Regional Councillor Bonnie Lit- tley was happy with the natural heritage system. Four stormwater management ponds are proposed and programs will monitor fish habitat, natural area restoration and water quality. “To mitigate potential negative impacts to fish habitat associated with the devel- opment activities, construction supervi- sion, erosion and sediment control, timing restrictions, and proper site maintenance should be employed,” the Sernas report said. Ward 3 City Councillor David Pickles asked that a report be prepared on how the development will be consistent with the City’s sustainability guidelines, which council agreed on. The Pickering Golf Course (the former Seaton Golf Course) will remain, but two holes will have to be relocated just east of the existing golf course. The report comes back to Council on Oct. 20. 1402 Taunton Road E.

A/P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, October 16, 2008 durhamregion.com Let’s protect all life To the editor: This past Sunday, Oct. 5, many thou- sands of people ran in the Cure for Cancer Run, which is a wonderful char- ity which I fully support, and hope that it accelerates a cure for cancer. However, on that same day, groups of us stood up for the Right to Life by silently displaying signs and praying for the protection of all life. This does seem a paradox, since we know abortion destroys far more lives than cancer each year and while we are running to prolong life, we are at the same time praying to prevent the destruction of lives which may have been instrumental in finding a cure for cancer! Let us pray that all life will be respect- ed and protected from conception until natural death. Kate Hudson Whitby I think it’s time for the word hot to go away. If I hear of one more person, vehicle or article of clothing described as hot I am going to pull my own head off. Maybe it’s my age, maybe it’s my slavish devotion to the beauty and breadth of the English language, maybe it’s because no one has ever referred to me as hot, but if I never hear the word hot again, outside of an equatorial country, it’ll be too soon. “She is so hot.” “He is so hot.” “Those pants are so hot on you.” This last one I could buy, if the person was clad in, say, corduroy trousers. Cordu- roy trousers are hot. I’ve worn them. Their ability to retain body heat was the reason I wore them. If I happened to look darn smart in them, well that was a bonus. But having some idiot blurting that I looked hot in them would’ve received a look of dull surprise. Of course I look hot. I’m wearing corduroy pants. What is worse, many of these language- slaughtering dopes throw further gaso- line on the linguistic fire by adding the superlative, “Oh My God!” Although in the idiot vernacular this is pronounced as the run-together “OmmaGawwwwd.” The I.Q. of the speaker generally shrinks in inverse proportion to the length of the last syl- lable. “OmmaGawwwwd! Those sandals are so hot!” Don’t even get me started on the irony of hot sandals. If the speaker is really enthused they will throw in the ubiquitous totally. Thus creating the metaphysical conundrum of how a vehicle parked at Portage and Main in February can still be totally hot. What really baffles is the “Ommagaw- wwd,” the constant referral to a supreme deity in matters of “hot-ness.” I’ve combed the Old and New Testaments, Koran, Torah and even the Vedas and nowhere do I find anything close to, “Then the Lord God made a woman from the rib of the man, and he brought her to the man. The man said OmmaGawwwd. She is soooo hot.” Nowhere. I suppose a big part of my issue is that it’s just laziness. A product of that unique- ly human trait of reaching for the quickest and easiest at hand. This kind of language usage is akin to a painter who uses only blues and reds. Instead of hot, why not gorgeous, intoxicating or remarkable. It may lack poetry, but, “That top you are wearing certainly makes me want to have a great deal of sex with you,” at least has clarity and honesty. Still, I’m not above succumbing to this linguistic loafing occasionally myself. As a teen, gadding about in my hot corduroy pants, I’m sure I ruffled a few adult feath- ers with my quick and easy use or misuse of the word cool. Interesting that what was once cool has now become hot. Maybe that generation gap isn’t as wide I thought. Ommagaw- wwd, that is like, so totally weird. Durham resident Neil Crone, actor-comic- writer, saves some of his best lines for his col- umns. He is currently starring in the hit sit- com, Little Mosque on the Prairie. Veteran Liberals can become major players in renewing party B ill Clinton, explaining his popularity as president when the economy was booming, once said, “it’s the econ- omy stupid.” Dan McTeague and Mark Holland, re-elected west Durham Liberals, might have a similar reply in explaining the overall federal election results: “it’s the leader stupid.” There’s no question Liberal fortunes suf- fered under Stephane Dion’s leadership, or lack of it, as the party dropped 19 seats, with the Conservatives and NDP the bene- ficiaries. He showed no personal charisma, seemed to have to muster enthusiasm and, let’s face it, proposing a new and confusing tax is never a good idea during an election campaign, especially a campaign over- shadowed by a severe economic slump. Even celebrating a fairly close win over Conservative Rick Johnson, there was a lot of negativity emanating from the Holland victory party, with several comments that don’t bode well for Mr. Dion’s political future. “We knew we wouldn’t form the govern- ment,” Mr. Holland said Tuesday night. He also commented the party “needs change” and that “in some ways, we can say it’s a difficult time for our party.” A Liberal MP who’s seen as an up-and- comer in the party, Mr. Holland can play a major role in shaping the Liberals’ fortunes in the next election and beyond. His youth makes him a natural for connecting or re-connecting with young people, and his pledge on election night to “hold the gov- ernment to account” is one he will likely keep, given his reputation as one of the best MPs in question period. Meanwhile, residents expect him to con- tinue challenging the federal government on the long-proposed Pickering airport, which he opposes. Veteran Dan McTeague, too, can be a big part of restoring Liberal fortunes here and across Canada. The Pickering-Scarborough East MP is neither for nor against the airport, and has said that if it were to be built there would have to be good reasons for doing so. Mr. McTeague has become well-known for his gas price predictions and says he’ll continue focusing on energy prices and ensuring gas prices are fair. Locally, he says the campaign revealed his constituents are calling for more job opportunities here, more affordable edu- cation and the addressing of transit issues in west Durham. Both MPs must work hard to ensure the Conservatives follow through on a promise to help the hard-hit manufacturing sector. The Conservatives, late in the campaign, announced a plan to eliminate taxes on manufacturing equipment coming into Canada and $400 million of additional funding to aerospace and automotive innovation programs over the next four years. That bodes well for the future and both MPs should press the government to make sure it’s not an empty promise. With their party’s fortunes definitely down after this election, both face a tough- er time in ensuring the needs of Ajax and Pickering residents are heard at the federal level. Neil on heat and hot Neil Crone/ Enter Laughing Open is In was written by Audiologist Lila O’Neill, founder of the fi rst Audiology Clinics to dispense hearing aids in Durham Region. Q. What causes tinnitus? A. The causes of tinnitus aren’t completely known and reasons can’t always be found but do need thorough investigation. Treatment of tinnitus depends very much on the cause. Q. What should I do if I have tinnitus? A. When tinnitus is caused by hearing loss, a hearing test can determine if this is the case and whether hearing aids may help. Often hearing aids will sharpen what’s supposed to be heard and end up drowning out or hiding the unwanted sounds. According to PhD Audiologist, Richard Tyler (2006): “Almost everyone would agree that hearing aids, when the patient has substantial hearing loss, can reduce tinnitus suffering.” Written by Audiologist, Lila O’Neill, founder of the fi rst Audiology Clinics to dispense hearing aids in Durham Region: Ajax Pickering Audiology Clinic, Bayly Audiology Services, Whitby Hearing Centre. Q. What is tinnitus or ‘ringing in the ears’? A. Tinnitus is a term derived from the Latin word tinnire, meaning to ring. Tinnitus is a ‘subjective ringing or tingling in the ear that can only be heard by the person experiencing it’. Tinnitus can be described in different ways: humming, buzzing, ringing, clicking, hissing. The noise can be constant or come in short bursts, lasting for long periods of time or just briefl y. The noise can be loud or soft, can change in pitch and can be heard in either one or both ears. Tinnitus can be heard at various times, but mostly when it is quiet like when going to sleep or early in the morning.

Problem is, Canadians who might benefit profoundly from psychotherapy—a.k.a. “talk” therapy—aren’t even considering it. Yet, evidence from brain imaging research suggests that one form of talk therapy known as Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, or CBT, produces changes in the brain similar to those produced by anti-depressant or anti-anxiety medications. CBT emphasizes the idea that our thoughts (cognitions) affect how we feel (emotions). Treatment lasts an average of 16 sessions (includes “homework”), and involves changing negative patterns of thinking—and behaving—using slow, gradual steps. “CBT involves active collaboration between patient and therapist,” says Dr. Direnfeld, a registered psychologist who’s been practicing CBT since the early ’90s, and who is now the clinical director of the Centre for Cognitive Behaviour Therapy in Ajax, Ontario. “In many cases, patients are quick to make worst-case-scenario assumptions, even when those assumptions are irrational and unwarranted,” explains Dr. Direnfeld. “My role is to use real-world evidence to help patients become more rational in their assessment of difficult situations, which then has a remarkable trickle-down effect.” Like medication, CBT has been shown to impact the brain in ways that are scientifically measurable. Take Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder, characterized by anxious thoughts and repetitive behaviours that are meant to reduce the anxiety. In a study that compared CBT to Prozac, changes in the brain were essentially identical. Dr. Direnfeld warns, however, that a crucial element of CBT is a patient’s motivation to change. Patients must believe, unquestionably, that change is achievable. “When my patients—even those who have suffered for years or decades—understand that they can change their life, it’s like an epiphany,” says Dr. Direnfeld. “All of a sudden, life holds exciting new prospects for the future.” For more information about CBT or the Centre for Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, call 905-427-2007 or email info@ccbt.ca. (NC)-After completing active treatment for breast cancer, women may need to consider a number of important lifestyle changes to optimize their health and lower the risk of recurrence. At the Marvelle Koffler Breast Centre, one of Canada’s most prominent treatment facilities at Toronto’s Mount Sinai Hospital, a new program is helping women do just that. Led by Nurse Clinician Linda Muraca, the Taking Charge: Healthy LIFEstyle Choices for Women after Breast Cancer program includes innovative sessions to educate women about healthier diet and physical activity choices and their impact on breast cancer recurrence. “It appears that the balance of energy intake (diet) and energy output (physical activity) is disrupted in the period after a breast cancer diagnosis,” says Muraca. “The goal of the Taking Charge program is to teach women how to reach or maintain a healthy weight by making appropriate lifestyle choices. Improving breast cancer survivors’ overall general health by losing weight may have a positive impact on recurrence.” In addition to nutrition and physical activity, women usually want to focus on goal setting, and appear to benefit from a peer-support group during the program. While lifestyle modification discussions are essential for women with breast cancer, another important aspect is reducing the risk of developing breast cancer. Community-based initiatives such as the AstraZeneca Breast Health Program educate women without breast cancer on how to manage their risk. Nutritional strategies to promote breast health are also provided and commonly asked questions and myths are addressed. Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the program has helped thousands of women, and has been recognized as a Leading Practice.

Answer: Cravings are our body’s way of talking to us. When we eat foods that are defi cient in nutrients, such as fast, processed, refi ned, microwave or fried foods, our bodies do not have the materials, aka “nutrients”, they need to build cells correctly and run optimally. Therefore, our bodies, being as smart as they are, send out a “craving” to get us to eat more food! The key is to provide our bodies with whole foods that are nutrient dense, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, emphasizing low-glycemic carbohydrates, essential fats and lean proteins in the right ratios. Eating the correct balance of fats, proteins and carbohydrates is what we at U Weight Loss call eating in “hormonal balance”. This reduces cravings, fuels our bodies for optimal vitality and energy, helps prevent disease and makes weight loss safe and easy! Optimal health is the most important thing at U Weight Loss and can only be achieved through BALANCE - this is what we teach our clients at the clinics!

Renown for her expert advice on healthy living, having appeared on CTV Newsnet, Global News, 640am and CBC radio — in addition to contribut- ing to articles in community newspa- pers as well as Elle Canada Magazine — Foy has opened up the first of two U Weight Loss Clinics in Durham Region. “Our program is based on science and we offer three basic steps,” she explains. “The first is to detox and cleanse, the second is to stabilize the clients’ blood sugar levels and the final step is to increase their metabolism. We encourage total health and ensure our clients get all the es- sential nutrients necessary to make weight loss easy.” Clients begin by taking part in a free health analysis. “We sit down and discuss their health goals, whether that’s losing weight or just maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Our program encourages people to achieve their own personal health goals. Regardless of whether or not they decide to pursue those goals with the U Weight Loss Program, everyone receives a free detox and cleanse. “It is a very mild cleanse that can be used in conjunc- tion with their current diet, and after they have started we will follow up with them to see how they are doing.” Our main goal is to change people’s lives and make losing weight easy by educating our clients and clearing up the many nutrition myths that interfere with them meeting their goal and maintaining their weight loss permanently.” Through its employees, U Weight Loss also offers up personal experiences and successes. Foy herself lost over 50 pounds after her pregnancy by applying the “3 secrets to Weight Loss” that the program is based on. Ciara Foy became a nutritionist because she loves helping people: “There is nothing more rewarding than helping some- one lose weight, get healthy and change their lives. When I see my clients smiling because of their renewed confidence, coming off medications for health conditions such as high cholesterol or blood pressure and even reversing their type II diabetes, I know we are really changing people’s lives!” U Weight Loss was formulated by Dr. James Hyssen who has been in the weight loss industry for over 20 years and is a member of the clinic’s team.

Neither the players’ heads nor hearts were into suiting up against the Bowmanville Eagles in Ontario Junior Hockey League play at the Garnet B. Rickard Rec- reation Complex. That morning, the players were informed the father of Attack forward Derek Gregorack had died of cancer. Michael Clifford Gregorack was 50. Derek Gregorack had just re- cently rejoined the Ajax Attack after being sent down from the Ontario Hockey League’s Peter- borough Petes. He played his first game at Ajax on Sunday, with the Attack earning a 3-1 vic- tory. Predictably, with the players reeling from the heartbreaking news prior to the back end of the home-and-home series with the Eagles, they suffered a 7-0 loss -- their third of the season. The wins and losses weren’t of much importance to Attack head coach Carey Durant when reached on Tuesday. “It was just an awful day for us. Our team was nowhere to be found that day,” said Durant. “The focus was not on hockey for any of us. Obviously, our team mentality wasn’t there.” Durant says the immediate focus is to rally around their teammate. Players attended the visitation Wednesday and will attend the funeral at McEach- nie’s Funeral Home in Pickering Village on Thursday. Flowers were also sent to the Gregorack family on behalf of the team and management. “What’s important is we sup- port one of our players and team- mates and help him get through this terrible time,” said Durant. Attack general manager John Tugnutt said the players took the news particularly hard as many of them grew up playing hockey with Derek Gregorack and “were close to the family.” The Attack opened the home- and-home set with Bowmanville at the Ajax Community Centre, earning their seventh victory in 10 games thus far this season. The forward line of Ian Watters, Luke Hannon and Blake Boddy continued to shine as the unit combined for five points against the Eagles, with Watters scoring twice, Hannon drawing two as- sists and Boddy adding a single helper. Jordan Reed scored into an empty net to seal the deal on Sunday. Adam Stein earned the win in net, stop- ping 40 of 41 shots. The Attack has cancelled practices this week in order to attend the visitation and funeral. They resume play on Thursday night in Bur- lington against the Cougars of the league’s MacKinnon Divi- sion. The Attack return home on Sunday for a game against the Kingston Frontenacs at the com- munity centre at 3 p.m. Jason Liebregts/ News Advertiser photo Ajax Attack’s Jesse Dunphy, left, and Bowmanville Eagles’ John Bull battle for the puck in Ontario Junior Hockey League action at the Ajax Community Centre.

The Panthers (2-6, with 2 over- time wins) kick things off against the Port Hope Predators at the Pickering Recreation Complex on Friday night at 7:30 p.m. The next afternoon, the Panthers are in Trenton to play the Hercs at 2 p.m. Against Port Hope, the Panthers hope to erase the bad taste left over after an 8-2 drubbing by the Preds in their regular-season opener back on Sept. 5. The Port Hopers have risen to third place in the Ruddock Division, while the inconsistent Panthers have struggled to put together any sort of sustained momentum this season and reside in eighth spot in the nine-team division. That being said, Pickering head coach Bill Brady believes his club can make amends for their previous poor performance against the Predators. “We’re a different hockey team since they last saw us. We’ll be ready and we’ll be much better prepared,” vowed Brady. The Panthers also have to be on guard against Trenton on Saturday. The Hercs could still be stinging from an 8-1 drubbing by the Pan- thers in Pickering on Oct. 8. They won’t be any more rested, however, as both Pickering and Trenton play on Friday night. The Panthers are coming off an- other loss to the Buffalo Junior Sa- bres, dropping an 6-2 decision in West Seneca, N.Y. last Saturday. It was Pickering’s second loss to the Buffalonians in the past two weeks. Brady noted Saturday’s defeat was almost a carbon copy of the 4-1 loss to the Junior Sabres in Pickering on Oct. 3, insofar as the Panthers got behind early, battled back, and eventually surrendered a couple of late goals. Last Saturday, Buffalo got the ini- tial jump, scoring the first three goals of the game in the first and sec- ond periods. The Panthers rebounded with two quick goals to open the third pe- riod, but wore down in the third period in a battle of at- trition. Host Buffalo scored three times in the final seven minutes to seal the deal. “It was 3-2 with about six minutes to go. We were down to three de- fenceman and we just ran out of gas,” said Brady, who, by the end of the game, had only 10 skaters available. The Panthers first lost rearguard Nick LeBouthillier to an ankle injury in only his third shift of the contest, while Aaron Engelage went down with a head injury and Paul Jackiw was tossed for fighting in the third period, leaving Pickering with only three defencemen. Eamonn Courtney and Greg Riggs, both on the power play, scored for the Panthers against Buffalo. Tyler Von Englebrechten drew two assists, with singles to Richard Duncan and Jeff Broekema. With the exception of LeBouthilli- er, who’s expected to miss two to three weeks with the ankle injury, the other injured Panthers are ex- pected back in the lineup for Friday’s game against Port Hope.

The Roadrunners capped a highly successful season after capturing the Central Girls’ Soccer League’s Cup championship recently. As Cup champs, the Ajax Unit- ed U12s received promotion to the CGSL’s U13 division in 2009. The Cup win completed a rare double for the Road- runners, which also won the 2008 league title with an un- defeated 14-0-0 CGSL run. Overall, in league play, the team were perfect at 17-0-0. Earlier in the season, the Roadrunners went unde- feated in the prestigious On- tario Cup tournament, that featured the best teams in their age group in the prov- ince. They didn’t, however, advance in the tournament due to goal differentials with the Mississauga Falcons. In terms of tournament action this year, the Road- runners went undefeated to capture the Frank Sobil Spring Classic title in Osha- wa. They also participated in the Adidas Warriors Clas- sic event in Dayton, Ohio -- their first foray into the U.S. The Roadrunners finished short of a title, but gained some valuable experience. Prior to the 2008 summer season, the Roadrunner team members played in a winter indoor league at the Aurora Sports Dome where they went undefeated (10-0- 0) to win the league crown. Team members are Alicia Rose, Alicia Hales, Alisha Campitelli, Ashley Wright, Alannah Jelic, Janea John, Jahnae Bennett, Jessica Per- sico, Kathleen More, Lind- sey Wallis, Mackenzie Barry, Madison Clysdale, Mina Ja- balameli, Rachel Matthews and Sarah Ladouceur. Team staff is coaches Richard Hirst, Martin Rose and Kevin Barry, and man- ager/trainer Denise Rose. Ajax Roadrunners dash to Cup, league crowns Knights drub Pittsburgh in final AJAX — The Ajax Knights peewee ‘AA’ rep hockey team overwhelmed squads from Ontario, New York and Penn- sylvania on its way to a cham- pionship win at the 10-team 2008 Hunter Faulkner Fall Face-off AA tournament in Erie, PA recently. The Knights won their di- vision over four other teams by a combined score of 34 goals for and only seven goals against. The Knights played an up-tempo well-rounded team game to dominate in the preliminary matches. The title game against Pittsburgh was played on the home ice of the Ontario Hockey League’s Erie Otters. The Knights kept to their game plan of quick puck movement and sound posi- tional team play. The Knights were full measure for their 7-0 title-winning game. In the semifinal game against an ‘AA’ team from Hamilton, the Knights kept up their relentless team attack on their way to the final with a 9-1 win. The Knights had a brief rest before meeting a team from Pittsburgh in the championship game. The Ajax Knights ‘AA’ squad is comprised of goalies Tristan van der Groef and Isa- iah Lebel, defencemen Shane McCrae, Tommy Kemp, Der- rick Dennis, Josh Hansen, Bailey Petsinis, Jordan Gard- ner and forwards Chanse Desroches, Darrin Shore, Zack Hope, Adam Nishino, Daniel Taylor, Dylan Kingdon, Mitchell Fowler, Adam Gard- ner and Riley Vandervinne.

Players, coaching staff and par- ents gathered at Kinsmen Park in Pickering recent- ly to cycle a five- kilometre route along the Pickering Waterfront Trail in the team’s bike-a-thon fundrais- ing event. The effort was to raise funds not only for the team but, most importantly, to sponsor a child to play hockey this season, a child who could not otherwise afford to play. Each year the Pickering Hockey Association sponsors more than five children to play hockey in the league. The atom ‘AE’ team made a mark in PHA history by being the first team in the league to sponsor registration fees for a fellow Panther to play in this season’s house league division. Pickering atom ‘AE’ head coach Kevin Stanley noted the bike-a-thon allowed the team to give back to the association. “They are honoured to help the association and hope this inspires other teams to do the same. They believe their contribution is an im- portant one, well worth their en- deavour and are proud of it,” said Stanley. The Panthers also travelled to Erie, Penn. recently to play in the Hunter Faulkner Fall Face-Off Tournament, winning the championship. The Pickering atoms went into the finals undefeated and took the cham- pionship by a score of 2-1 against the Depew (New York) Saints. The Erie event represented the Panthers first tournament of the sea- son. Team members are Michael Lang- ton, Blaire Allison, Alex Manbeck, Daniel Perrone, Macauley Aicken, Gavin Arnott, Julia Rolling, Con- nor Burinski, Angelo Mintsopoulos, Jacob Garcia, Spencer Lee, Zach Hussein, Cameron Moffitt, Bradley Stanley, Quinn Ready and Steve Marchione.
