In an 8-18 vote Wednesday, councillors rejected Mayor Steve Parish’s call for a review that would have looked at reducing, redistrib- uting or increasing Durham coun- cil. In Ajax, each of the three Re- gional councillors represent about 30,000 residents, which is the highest rate in the Region. But Mayor Parish expects the issue to have an impact in other areas of the Region, including Whitby and Clarington, as their populations grow. “In 2012 Ajax, Clarington and Whitby will have 53 per cent of the population of this region and 36 per cent of the votes (on council),” he said. He proposed that the issue be reviewed in 2010 with any changes becoming effective for the 2014 municipal election. Mayor Parish said if council didn’t deal with the representation problem, the Province would. However, councillors voting against the review said there were other priorities the Region should be focusing on, including the cur- rent economic climate. Among them were Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan. He said chang- es in 2014 should come from the councillors elected in 2010. “Historically we know 70 per cent of us are going to be back, 30 per cent won’t.” Clarington Mayor Jim Aber- nethy said councillors should focus on effectively managing the assets they’re required to manage. He said all Regional councillors look out for the good of Durham as a whole and thinks the current representatives serve their constit- uents. “I don’t hear my regional councillors complaining that the workload is too high,” he said. Several councillors from Dur- ham’s rural municipalities said representation shouldn’t be based only on population, but geography should be a factor as well. “We keep the Region green, when we talk about how much greenspace you have in Durham, thank Brock Township and the other rural regions,” said Brock Mayor Larry O’Connor.

Police responding to reports of a mari- juana grow operation in a house at 307 Bloor St. E., Tuesday evening found the body of Amber Francis Young, 21. A resident of the home has been charged. Jason Rodgerson, 25, of Bloor Street was scheduled to appear by video in an Oshawa court Thursday afternoon. He is charged with second-degree murder. Ms. Young, who has family in Oshawa and had recently been living on Albert Street downtown, was reported missing by her mother Monday evening, Durham homicide Detective Dave Henderson said. It’s believed Ms. Young died sometime between Monday and the time her body was found, Det. Henderson said. An autopsy is set for Saturday and until then a cause of death cannot be declared. Ms. Young had not previously been ac- quainted with Mr. Rodgerson, a native of New Brunswick who took up residence there three months ago. “I would suggest for all intents and pur- poses he was a stranger,” Det. Henderson said. Ms. Young’s sister Nivek Young, 23, said her family is “devastated.” “She was the best sister ever,” said a sob- bing Nivek. “She was my best friend. I told her everything.” Nivek said she’s not familiar with the man accused of her sister’s murder. She said the family is awaiting information on when and how Ms. Young met her death. “I want to know how my sister died and when she died,” she said. Ms. Young leaves behind a grieving family that includes an eight-year-old son, Nivek said. News of Ms. Young’s death resulted in several entries on her Facebook page. “Amber will be deepley (sic) missed and forever thought of as a great friend and a loving mother,” read one entry. “I knew Amber from Coffee Time on Rit- son Rd . . . last time I saw her was Halloween last year almost one year ago. She was a great gal . . . always smiling. I’m going to miss her. I just can’t understand how anyone would want to hurt her?” said another. After the discovery of the young woman’s body police set up tents covering a large part of the backyard of the property. Officers with the Drug Enforcement Unit had also been on scene to investigate a mari- juana grow operation in the basement of the home. Neighbours and even the owner of the home say they had been kept in the dark about what was going on. When the tents went up Wednesday, po- lice “told us they were just protecting the ground,” said Erika Morra, who lives across the street from the scene. “Two guys moved in with just plastic bags, nothing else,” about a month ago, she said. As she spoke, the owner of the property, identified only as Eugene, pulled in to her driveway. He said he had only been told there was a grow-op in the home. The two men he had rented the house to were in their early 30s, he estimated. “They were so good,” he said. “They made a good impression, had good jobs; they were working all the time.” The two were employed as painters, he said.

Fall back and change batteries this weekend DURHAM — You’re getting an extra hour this weekend. Why not use some of that extra time to change your smoke alarm batteries? On Sunday, Nov. 2, Ontario resi- dents officially fall back one hour, to resume standard time. At the same time, residents are reminded to change the batteries in smoke alarms, whether they are battery-operated or hard-wired with battery backup. All alarms greater than 10 years old -- hard-wired or not -- should be changed as they do wear out. Anderson says council not ready for Parish road ✦ Anderson from page 1 Following the defeat of his motion, Mayor Parish said he would take the matter up with the Province. He said he didn’t anticipate it passing at council and had harsh words for some of his colleagues voting against the review. “I think that’s extremely shortsight- ed. They’re looking after their own selfish political interests, they’re not looking out for their municipality. There should have been more sup- port from Whitby and Clarington.” Regional chairman Roger Ander- son, who had said in the past he didn’t think council had the appe- tite to re-open the issue, disagreed that it was self-interest that killed the review. Rather, he said councillors simply have a lot of other things on their plate right now. “It was obvious today members of council just aren’t able to go down this road.” OPG holding open houses in Courtice, Ajax By Keith Gilligan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM — Ontario Power Generation is continuing its work toward building a pair of reactors next to the Darling- ton nuclear station. And, a series of information sessions have been held to keep the public up-to-date on the plan. Two more sessions are scheduled next week, with one in Courtice and the other in Ajax. Between 20 to 30 people are attending each session, said Lauri Swami, the direc- tor, licencing nuclear genera- tion development for OPG. “A lot of people want to hear the presentation.” The level of public support depends on where the open house is held, she said. “As you get away from the plant, there’s less knowledge of the plant. Clearly, people want to know we are operating safely,” Ms. Swami said dur- ing a meeting of the Pickering Community Advisory Council on Tuesday. The information session in Courtice is on Tuesday, Nov. 4, in Hall A of the Courtice Community Centre, 2950 Courtice Rd. N., from 5 to 9 p.m. In Ajax, there’s a session on Thursday, Nov. 6 in the HMS Ajax Room of the Ajax Com- munity Centre, 75 Centennial Rd., during the same times. At both sessions, there will be a presentation starting at 7 p.m. The provincial government wants up to 4,800 megawatts of power produced at the Dar- lington site. “The bid process is two units now and they’re looking at potentially addi- tional units,” said Ms. Swami. Three vendors are bidding to build the reactors, she said, adding the winning bid is to be announced in March of 2009. The winning bidder will be responsible for building the reactors, while OPG has been selected to operate them. Final bid submissions have to be filed with the provincial government by the end of the year, Ms. Swami said. The three companies are Atomic Energy of Canada (AECL), Areva NP and West- inghouse Electric Company. The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission is prepar- ing guidelines for an envi- ronmental impact statement and a site preparation licence, and public comments on the guidelines can be made by Nov. 19. After the com- ments are received, they’ll be reviewed and the final guide- lines released. The EIS is part of the envi- ronmental assessment OPG has to conduct. “In the middle of next year, we’ll submit the EIS and site preparation licence ap- plication,” Ms. Swami said. “There’s a lot of opportunity for the public to still com- ment on the EA process.” A panel review of the EIS will then be done and it should be completed by 2011. “Mid-2011 is when we get the licence. That’s when the work begins, earth being moved, fences going up,” Ms. Swami said. “Once we get the licence to construct, we can start to build the buildings for the reactors.” It will take six years to build the reactors and they’ll be op- erational by 2018, according to the provincial timeline. It will take about a year to go through the commission- ing process, she said. THE NEWS ADVERTISER, October 31, 2008 PAGE 5 A/Pdurhamregion.com Still chance to comment on Darlington nuclear plans Mountain lion sightings in south Pickering PICKERING — People in the Douglas Park area of Pickering are being urged to be cautious after the Durham Regional Police re- ceived two reports of a mountain lion on the prowl. Police say the first report was received by the Pickering Animal Services on Oct. 16, when an adult walking in the park spotted the cat. The second report came on Wednesday from a 12-year-old boy. Police officers, along with Pickering Animal Services person- nel, have been to the park, on the west side of Frenchman’s Bay, on several occasions, but haven’t seen the animal. In a press release, the police say the sightings could be accurate and the animal may be an exotic pet of some kind released by its owner. Also involved in the search are ministry of natural resources of- ficials. Anyone with information about this investigation is asked to call 19 Division (the Ajax-Pickering of- fice) at 1-888-579-1520. If the animal is sighted, keep a safe distance and call 911.

A/P PAGE 6 THE NEWS ADVERTISER, October 31, 2008 durhamregion.com T hree hundred million dollars is a lot of money. It’s the exact amount of money that the Canadian Auto Workers union gave up in concessions to General Motors to reach a contract agreement in May. Before GM announced it would be closing the truck plant. That much money could buy 1,387 average-priced homes in Oshawa (which was estimated to be $216,365 in 2007). It’s probably reasonable to esti- mate this amount of money, put in the right place, could house a large number of the people waiting for affordable housing in Durham, which was a list of about 4,000 names in 2005. It could cover the cost of the 300 classrooms being built through Dur- ham District School Board projects. Twice. With $14 million left over. It would be enough to fund two incin- erators, based on the current estimated cost. Not that incineration is such a popu- lar idea that the residents of Durham would want two of them, but you get the point. In Ontario, it’s the amount of cash the provincial government vowed to put into municipal infrastructure for local roads, bridges and water systems. Nationally, it’s the same amount of money the federal government allocat- ed to support nuclear energy and main- tain nuclear safety in the 2008 budget. It’s also the same amount of money that was spent on a program to immu- nize young girls against HPV, the virus that is known to cause cervical cancer. Globally, $300 million could forgive more than half the debt of Swaziland, the country with the world’s high- est known HIV/AIDS prevalence rate, which is $524 million US. It’s also about six times the amount of aid the country received in 2005 ($46.03 million US). It’s the estimated price of the opening ceremonies for the Summer Olympics in Beijing. If you want to think of things in terms of how much $300 million is when divided by each person living in our fine country, we can do that, too. At $8.90 per Canadian, it could have at least bought every man, woman and child a fast food meal or two. Six large coffees at Tim Hortons. Or eight litres of gas. OK, maybe not all the time. What did $300 million buy Canadians on Oct. 14? A Conservative minority government. Something we already had. Melissa Mancini’s column appears occasionally. E-mail mmancini@durhamregion.com If I had 300 million dollars to spend however I want Jim Flaherty retains his spot as finance minister W hen the economy is as unpre- dictable as it has been these past few months, it pays to have stability at the top. Canadians certainly felt that way a few weeks ago when they returned the Conservatives to Parliament with a significantly stronger minority govern- ment. The message from the electorate was not broadly sweeping, but it was a vote of confidence in the ruling party to continue with policies that would protect our pocketbooks in troubling times. With the Canadian dollar in a mas- sive slide -- it’s down, then up, then down again -- and the stock market taking dips and jumps, Prime Minister Stephen Harper had to think over who he would name as his finance minister in his new cabinet. It’s likely he didn’t spend a lot of thought over his deci- sion to retain Whitby-Oshawa MP Jim Flaherty in the post he’s held for nearly three years. Mr. Flaherty, the second most pow- erful man in the country, has shown the strength and fortitude to weather the tough going in the government’s first term in office. It was he who had to make the difficult announcement and carry the water over the Conserva- tive decision to go back on a campaign promise not to tax income trusts. That decision, made exactly two years ago, angered many Canadians who were taken aback by the flip-flop. In spite of the detractors, Mr. Flaherty argued Canadian companies and future invest- ment was in jeopardy if too many companies chose to convert to income trusts. With his experience as Ontario’s finance minister and his ability to stand up for what he believes is right, Mr. Fla- herty is the ideal choice to continue in this vitally important portfolio. It will be up to him to strike the right balance between investing in Ontario’s hurt- ing manufacturing industries, helping find some more money for those on employment insurance in this province and trying to keep Canada from falling back into deficit. He has the skill set and political acumen to do so. Durham MP Bev Oda also remains in cabinet, continuing in her role as minister of international co-operation and giving Durham Region an unusual amount of federal clout. That can only mean good news for residents here when it comes time for the feds to look at investment east of Toronto. By Melissa Mancini Durham’s finest can’t have it both ways To the editor: If Durham’s police officers want to hire 20-20-20, maybe they should give up the three per cent per year raise. They are mistaken to think that the majority of taxpayers are behind them. This is a new era where wage freezes are the norm. Since my property taxes have gone from $2,600-$3,600 in seven years, where does it end? I do appreciate the work DRPS does and I could not and would not want to do it. That said, it seems the only time I interact with Durham’s finest is when they stop me speeding on my way to work to make money to pay my property taxes so they can get paid.

The first two days of testimony in the trial of Remond Akleh and Mark Stephenson have been devoted to a description of the world-wide reach of the Hells Angels and the way in which club members conduct their business. As Crown attorney John Scott has guided Thunder Bay police Sergeant Kenneth Davis through his testimony, jurors have viewed videotape of biker gatherings and heard excerpts from club documents seized by police. They’ve even had an explanation of the Angels’ infamous “colours” -- the black leather vests festooned with the club’s trade- marked “Death’s Head” logo -- as the officer, a member of the provincial Biker Enforce- ment Unit, showed off samples police have seized from bikers. Sgt. Davis’s testimony bolsters comments made by Mr. Scott during his opening state- ment to jurors Monday, when he said the Hells Angels are a global organization with chapters in countries around the globe. “The Hells Angels are not limited to On- tario, Canada, or North America,” Mr. Scott said. “They are a world-wide organization.” Sgt. Davis is the first witness to testify in the trial of Mr. Stephenson, president of the Oshawa chapter of the Hells Angels and Mr. Akleh, a former Oshawa Angel who transferred to the club’s elite Nomads unit. Mr. Stephenson, of Sunderland, and Mr. Akleh, of Cobourg, have pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit murder and counselling to commit murder. The Crown alleges the two men conspired with fellow biker Stephen Gault to assas- sinate Frank Lenti, a man with ties to biker gangs including the Bandidos, arch rival of the Hells Angels. The plot, hatched in the spring of 2006, was never acted upon, Mr. Scott told jurors; the two men now on trial were arrested in September of that year. Unbeknownst to them Mr. Gault, a full- patch member of the Oshawa chapter, had been working as a police agent since 2005, gathering evidence of cocaine dealing among club members, the Crown said. During Sgt. Davis’s testimony jurors have viewed videotape taken by police when Hells Angels members -- including Mr. Gault and the two men on trial -- attended a meeting at the Angels’ clubhouse in Windsor. They’ve also heard about seized docu- ments that refer to the move made by the Hells Angels into Ontario several years ago, when a number of clubs -- including the Oshawa Satans Choice -- were brought into the fold during a “patch over” ceremony that followed years of courting and negotiations. The trial, which began in earnest Monday, resumed Wednesday after testimony was cancelled Tuesday due to a juror falling ill. That juror has now been excused from the panel for medical reasons. Superior Court Justice Bruce Glass an- nounced Wednesday the trial will continue to completion with 11 jurors. STILL TIME TO GOLF!!

DURHAM — A new Ajax Hamlet public school is to be built by Pre-Eng Contracting Limited. The Durham District School Board con- firmed the awarding of the almost $9.5-mil- lion contract during its recent board meet- ing. Of the five contractors invited to tender, four did so, with Pre-Eng providing the low- est bid at $9.47 million, not including GST. The company has also completed Sir Wil- liam Stephenson, Bobby Orr, Sherwood, and Elizabeth Phin public schools. It’s currently building the unnamed Oshawa secondary and Olde Winchester public schools. “Staff are pleased with the relatively small differences between these bids,” said David Visser, facilities services superintendent. There was a difference of 2.3 per cent between the lowest three bids, said a staff report. Total project cost for the Ajax Hamlet school is more than $11.5 million. New Ajax school gets a builder Whitby boy j oins Pickering f irefighter at National Children’s Burn Camp By Parvaneh Pessian ppessian@durhamregion.com DURHAM — A legion of burn survivors from across North America united in Washington, D.C., this month at the National Children’s Burn Camp. Joining them was 16-year-old Branden Winters from Whitby, a burn survivor who spent weeks in The Hospital for Sick Children Burn Unit after suffering a seri- ous burn years ago. Branden was chosen as repre- sentative from the Burn Camp for Kids in Ontario (Camp Bucko), which he has been a member of for nearly a decade. Camp Bucko provides an op- portunity for children aged seven to 17 recovering from burn injuries to meet other children who share similar feelings and experiences in a camp environ- ment. As part of a mission to help build self-esteem, the Interna- tional Association of Firefight- ers gives burn survivors the op- portunity to explore Washington and share their experiences with others. “It’s a great experience be- cause it allows them to branch out expand their horizons, meet other burn survivors from differ- ent areas and share their stories,” said Steve Fowlds, Pickering fire inspector. Mr. Fowlds, who’s been a vol- unteer counsellor at the camp for three years, was chosen to ac- company Branden on the week- long trip. Branden said he was thrilled to be selected and enjoyed meeting other burn survivors and tour- ing monuments, memorials and museums in the city. He keeps in touch with his “new family members” who he met during the program and will always carry fond memories of the trip, he said. “I am proud when I can help a younger camper coming to camp for the first time feel like fam- ily,” he said, of his experience at Camp Bucko that he looks for- ward to attending every August. “We share our burn survivor stories and we all have so much in common.” Opportunities like the Wash- ington trip are provided to ad- here to the mission of Camp Bucko, which is to help burn survivors cope with life beyond their injuries, said camp director Nancy Sinclair. “The kids don’t stand out be- cause of their injuries or scars and being in an environment where they feel comfortable, helps them realize that their scars don’t have to hold them back,” said camp director Nancy Sinclair. The decision to send Branden on the trip came natu- rally because he’s so devoted to the cause, Ms. Sinclair said. “He has a lot of camp spirit, gets involved and is so enthu- siastic about everything we do. He truly understands what this camp is all about.” For more information on Camp Bucko, visit www.camp- bucko.ca.

After about 18 months of work, including numerous meetings and collecting input from hundreds, the Com- munity Safety Strategy was adopted by Ajax council on Monday. The strategy has 66 ‘action items’ broken up into short-term (one to two years), medium-term (three to four) and long-term (five plus years). Among the items in the short term are creating a ‘tool kit’ to help residents host neighbourhood events and to create neighbourhood associations; host events that support community development; research the impact and effectiveness of having lights along walkways and in public places; and, hold anti-gang strategy workshops for service providers and parents. Having a safety strategy was the “number-one strate- gic priority” for the Town, said Marilou Murray, assistant to the chief administrative officer. The strategy is an “actionable, strategic planning doc- ument,” she said to council, adding it provides “a sound basis for implementing sustainable solutions. “It’s about creating a healthy, caring community,” she said. “It’s more than catching bad guys and putting them behind bars. Community safety is about community well-being.” Several community groups worked with the Town on the document, including the Durham Regional Police, the two school boards, the Community Devel- opment Council Durham (CDCD), the John Howard Society, Safe Communities of Pickering-Ajax, The Youth Centre, and Durham Region social services department. The strategy is posted on the Town’s website. “Residents said they don’t know their neighbours, there’s no social cohesion,” Ms. Murray said. “There’s a perception youth crime is increasing. Youth crime and all crime is decreasing. “Students don’t feel as safe in school as they use to,” she said, adding, 85 per cent say “they feel safe and 15 per cent say they don’t feel safe and that’s worthy of our consideration.” “It’s exciting to see the Town of Ajax take such an ac- tive role. The value of the plan is it was created in Ajax for Ajax,” Tracey Vaughan of CDCD said. Duffi n Heights Neighbourhood – Water Supply and Sanitary Sewerage Servicing in the City of Pickering Class Environmental Assessment NOTICE OF STUDY COMPLETION WORKS DEPARTMENT October 31, 2008 PUBLIC NOTICE The Regional Municipality of Durham has completed a Municipal Class Environmental Assessment (Class EA) Study to determine the preferred water and sanitary servicing strategies for the Duffi n Heights Neighbourhood in the City of Pickering. This area is centrally located on both sides of Brock Road between Rossland Road and Taunton Road, bounded to the north by the C.P. Rail, to the east by the municipal boundary with the Town of Ajax, to the south by the hydro transmission tower line, and to the west by the West Duffi n Creek, as shown below. The preferred water servicing strategy is constructing a Zone 2 Water Booster Station within the study area. The preferred sanitary servicing alternative is constructing a Sewage Pumping Station on the easterly side of Brock Road with a sanitary sewage forcemain along Dersan Street discharging into the planned Central Duffi n Trunk Sanitary Sewer. Subject to comments received as a result of this notice and receipt of necessary approvals from relevant authorities, the Region of Durham intends to proceed with the design and construction of the necessary facilities identifi ed in this study. The study has been conducted in accordance with Schedule B of the Municipal Class Environmental Assessment, (Year 2000 & amended year 2007), under the Ontario Environmental Assessment (EA). A Schedule B Phase 1 and 2 Report has been prepared. The Report details the problem statement, the evaluation of alternatives and the preferred solutions, as well as the public and agency consultation conducted during the Study. The Report is available for public review during business hours at the following locations.

John G. Smith spoke to Pickering Council Monday about the accomplishments the United Way has achieved over the past year, such as helping more people learn to read and fill out job applications, delivering hot meals to seniors, and helping people participate more in society. He also asked that the municipality continue to sup- port the organization, which it has done in the past years in a number of ways, such as providing municipal grants. By municipalities partnering with the United Way, they can together help find root causes to social issues, Mr. Smith said. Besides, the United Way provides support to organizations that benefit Pickering, such as Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Ajax-Pickering. Individuals can contribute in a number of ways, such as providing post-dated cheques or monthly dona- tions off their credit cards. Another method that some employers provide is getting donations taken off an employee’s paycheque, something Ward 1 Regional Councillor Jennifer O’Connell does. “Eighty-three cents of every dollar goes directly to services,” Mr. Smith said. To donate to the United Way call 905-686-0606 or visit www.uwayapu.org.

The centre began opening in June of 1996, and on Aug. 24 of this year, “we had the opening of the entire mosque,” said Mohammed Rahim, the president of the centre. The building is about 21,000 square feet and is on Brock Road, just north of Finch Avenue. The mosque can handle prayer services, funerals and school, with junior and senior kindergarten pro- grams starting next year, both “based on the Canadian standard,” Mr. Rahim said. As for the school, “we will try to get it bigger and big- ger. We have the space now. We have a plan for that for sure,” he said. Presently, there’s evening Islamic classes for youths from 5 to 7 p.m. Monday to Thursday, where children have Qur’an and Arabic studies, he said. Friday is the “biggest day” when between 300 and 500 people attend prayer services, he said. There’s a mosque in Whitby, but “this is considered the biggest one in Durham Region. We have all the facilities,” he said. “The whole project cost $4.2 million and it was all funded by the community. There was no bank loan. We were given loans interest free and we have to pay them back. That’s why it took us six years to complete the project,” Mr. Rahim said. Members are active in the community, having taken part in interfaith dialogue with other religions, Mr. Rahim said. Also, when the tsunami hit southern Asia in 2005, “$52,000 was collected from our community.” Funds have also been raised for the Hospital for Sick Children, the Red Cross and the Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital. The Imam is Hasan Shaikh, who’s been at the mosque for four years. “He’s a very capable, young guy.” VIJAY BADHWAR, DMD Dental Care for Adults, Kids and Great Big Babies. • A Full Range of Dental Treatments - Bring the whole family. • Saturday & Evening Appointments - To serve you better. • Flexible Payment Options - Helping you get the treatment you want. • A Relaxing Atmosphere - Virtual vision glasses, stereo headphones to help ensure you have a pleasant visit. 905-683-1391 We keep our patients smiling by taking the time to understand their needs.

With the snip of a red-and- green-apple ribbon, the University of Ontario Institute of Technology officially opened its new faculty of education location Monday, Oct. 20. Situated in a renovated build- ing at 11 Simcoe St. N. in Oshawa, the site opened this September to 223 bachelor of education stu- dents and more than 60 faculty and staff. “Believe me folks, if you’d been in this building in March, you wouldn’t believe it was possible,” said Dr. Jim Greenlaw, faculty of education dean. The building formerly held a Scotiabank but has been dormant for a few years. After months of construction, it now features wire- less internet connections, class- rooms with movable walls, provid- ing larger spaces when necessary, and specialty classrooms for sci- ence, art and drama studies. “This truly is an amazing thing that we’re here in such a short pe- riod of time,” said Oshawa Coun- cillor Louise Parkes. The majority of the project’s work was completed in just over three months, she said. Having the new faculty has al- ready transformed the downtown, said Coun. Parkes, also a small business owner. “I’ve been meet- ing students in coffee shops and the downtown is a different place since the first day you arrived,” she said. “It really is a great feeling know- ing the downtown is happy to have us here,” said student Megan Steep. Moving the faculty downtown has been positive for the program, Ms. Steep said. All the resourc- es students need are within the building’s walls, staff and faculty are easily accessible, and the li- brary holds all the required books. “The location has also allowed us to be more aware and involved with Oshawa,” Ms. Steep said. They recently had a food drive and walked the donations over to St. Vincent’s Kitchen. Previous to the September move, Ms. Steep spent about a month in portables at the school’s main campus at Conlin and Taunton roads. Having the faculty situated in its own building creates more of a community feeling, and makes getting to class faster and access- ing staff easier. “Having everyone in one place has been really nice and you feel like you’re in the middle of where everything is happening,” Ms. Steep said. “It’s busy, it’s lively,” Ms. Steep said. “The restaurants have been great.” Oshawa’s library is close by as well, expanding resources available to the students, Ms. Steep said, “Downtown Oshawa is once again a designation of excitement and opportunity,” said Oshawa Mayor John Gray. The UOIT is the most significant thing to come to Oshawa since Sam McLaughlin brought General Motors, he said. The university’s investment in the building is a significant com- mitment in the revitalization of downtown Oshawa, Mayor Gray said. “This building, as we have heard several times today, was a building, let’s say, in distress,” said Dr. Ronald Bordessa, UOIT presi- dent. “Maybe even abandoned – abandoned distress.” The school is fortunate to be in a city that, like UOIT, is on the move, Dr. Bordessa said.

They may not look like much now, but come Nov. 11 the bags will become luminarias -- makeshift lanterns created when a tealight candle is placed inside a paper bag. Organizer Jennifer Foden said she has seen luminarias used by charities like Relay for Life, and was inspired to hold her own fundraiser featuring the simple lights. “It’s really beautiful when the whole bag glows,” said the fourth- year UOIT criminology student. Ms. Foden, vice-president of the campus Rotaract club, and her friend Mallory Ryan, captain of the UOIT Dance Company, decided to hold a luminaria event to raise money for Team Brother Bear, a charity that supports children with brain tumours and their families. The pair plans to start selling paper bags Nov. 5, and a luminaria ceremony is planned for Nov. 11. People who buy a bag will be able to write on the outside before the ceremony, which will see all the luminarias lit around the reflective pond in Polonksy Commons. “People can write an inspiration- al quote or a message to a loved one or a message of remembrance,” Ms. Foden said. “Then they will have the opportunity to see their bag lit up as part of a beautiful lighting display.” The event, dubbed “Lu- minaria Inspire, Hope, Remember,” will feature performances by sing- ers, musicians, speakers and danc- ers, as well as Remembrance Day observances. In addition to their use in charity fundraisers, luminarias are popular holiday decorations in states such as New Mexico and Texas, where rows of them are traditionally lit on Christmas Eve to guide people to midnight mass. Paper bags will be on sale Nov. 5, 6, 7, 10 and 11 on campus in Vendors Alley at Durham College and the UA Atrium at UOIT. They can also be purchased by e-mailing rotaract.dctrentuoit@hotmail.com. The bags are $2 each or three for $5 and come with a ticket good for hot chocolate and a treat at the Nov. 11 event, which runs from 7 to 9 p.m. For more information on Team Brother Bear, visit www.teambroth- erbearcanada.blogspot.com. www.sklargallery.com Exceptional Warranty Superior Construction Fast Delivery ONELOCATI ONONLY OSHAWA 900 Champlain Ave., Oshawa 905-723-4561 Hours: Mon.• Tues.• Wed. 10-6, Thurs.• Fri. 10-9, Sat. 10-6, Sun.11-5 *Credit equal to the value of the GST.

The good news is that Roger Anderson no longer wants Durham Regional Police Chief Mike Ewles to cut another $300,000 from the Durham Regional Police Service’s 2009 budget. The bad news is that Roger Anderson now wants Chief Ewles to cut another $2,000,000 from the budget. The Durham Regional Police Association has been pushing for a 20-20-20 plan, which would see the Police Services Board agree to hire 20 additional frontline offi cers each year over the next three years. Even Chief Ewles says he needs to add 19 additional offi cers in 2009. But that clearly won’t happen now. Roger Anderson has been the Chair of Durham Region since 1997. In 2006, he got himself a raise of 8.9%, which means he now makes a whopping $183,868.74 (plus another $5,670.89 in taxable benefi ts). It’s pretty clear what his priorities are.

It’s a Mobile Showroom which just may be the only one in Canada. “The day is gone when you carried some brochures and a sample window to a customer’s home,” explains Wayne. “So I obtained a retired North York Mobile Library truck and installed interior walls along with all of my window samples.” When you call Durham Windows and Doors for a free estimate, Wayne will show up at your door with his Mobile Showroom which you’ll enter by way of a sliding patio door. Inside, displayed on the walls, are the Vinyl Window Designs series of vinyl windows which you’re free to operate and you’ll discover the many special features including how they can be cleaned without going outside. “After being in this business for 26 years, I can honestly say these are the finest windows on the market,” says Wayne. “They’re triple sealed to reduce air leakage and come with heavy duty hardware.” All Vinyl Window Designs windows come with Low E Glass which filters out the ultraviolet rays keeping your home cooler in the summer and eliminate fading of your curtains, drapes and furniture. All of the windows come with a lifetime warranty on the frame, hardware and glass. Wayne would also like his customers to know that he does all of the estimates personally, eliminating the cost of a salesperson. Durham Windows and Doors also does all of its own installations, which ensures that every customer gets a high quality job done at the best possible price.

Jones has been a member of the Durham Potters Guild since it was founded more than 20 years ago, joining with a few of her friends because of their shared interest in pottery. The Greenwood resident finds her inspiration from a variety of places. “Over the years it has grown from people’s input to other pot- ters’ work, although you cannot copy their work but you get ideas from it,” Jones said. She is part of the Guild’s upcom- ing Christmas Show and Sale on Nov. 8 and 9. Although the Guild started with sales at the Pickering Recreation Complex, it soon expanded and moved to its current location, the Ajax Kinsmen Heritage Centre. Jones has shown her work in shows such as the Guild’s Spring and Christmas shows, the One of a Kind, the Elmira Maple Syrup Festival, the Toronto Outdoor Arts Exhibition and the Unionville and Markham festivals. She is proud to say her work was chosen to present to former Lieutenant Governor Lincoln Alex- ander at the opening ceremonies of the Pickering City Hall complex. “I’m a full-time potter; I’ve been involved in pottery for over 30 years,” Jones said. The pieces are shown and sold in her studio workshop, Barn Swal- low Pottery, at 2530 Concession 6 in Greenwood. The time needed to complete a work “depends on the size of the piece,” said Jones. “If I were doing a mug it takes up to a couple of weeks.” The process involves moulding, decorating, trimming, drying, glaz- ing and firing the piece twice. “I work on a variety of functional pieces and a few decorative pieces as well,” Jones said. While the majority of her cre- ations are of a practical nature, Jones also had the chance to create whimsical teapots for a show at the Durham West Arts Centre. Her work is in private collections across Canada, the United States, Europe and Australia. Jones can also be found at the pottery studio in the Pickering Rec- reation Complex, where she teach- es a class for youth on Saturday mornings. “There is usually one or two stu- dents who picks up on pottery and wants to get fully into it,” Jones said. Her work is available at her stu- dio workshop and at the twice-an- nual Guild shows, including the Christmas Show, which features the work of many artists in the group, including Leanne Jordan, an active member for the past two years. “I moved to Whitby three years ago where I met the chair (of the Durham Potters Guild) who sug- gested I join,” said Jordan. Creating in clay has been a pas- sion of Jordan’s since she took an interest as a girl. “It went back to when I was a child,” she said. “I attended a sum- mer camp where I first tried pot- tery.” She attended The Ontario Col- lege of Art and Design where she worked with the medium after changing her major to ceramics. “It’s a good outlet because all of the potters get together for the meetings that are during the month,” Jordan said of her mem- bership in the Guild. The meetings allow members the opportunity to share their ideas while providing a social meeting place for local potters. Like Jones, Jordan also owns a home-based studio, in Brooklin. “I run my own business; my stu- dio is called Leanne Ryan-Jordan Pottery,” she said. “I’ve had my studio since I grad- uated from college.” Her pottery includes a function- al line of porcelain and stoneware in yellow, green, blue and brown glazes. “Everything I do is functional while each piece is also a decora- tive piece,” Jordan said when asked how to classify her pottery. The forms are simple and re- fined, allowing her to use creative surface effects, something for which she is known. “A lot of my inspiration comes from nature and also Japanese- type pottery,” she said. Jordan uses details like stamp- ing, carving and pressing objects such as leaves into her pieces to add uniqueness to her work and to give it a Japanese feel. “The simplicity of Japanese style; it’s simple and beautiful but has a purpose,” Jordan said. Her work is created on a potter’s wheel, with some pieces formed from rolled out slabs of clay. Jordan also explained how the completion of a project depends upon the piece. “I usually make sets, 10 or four to a set,” she said. “I can make 10 little pots in a half an hour. But then there is the process of drying, trimming, firing it twice and glaz- ing that makes the completion of the set take a month to finish.” Jordan’s work is high fired, caus- ing it to be strong and durable for everyday use. Her work has been shown in a variety of exhibitions, including the Guild’s annual shows, the Scar- borough Craft Show, Showcase of the Arts, Fairy Lake Artisan Show, Brooklin Art in the Park, Art Natu- rally and Jubilee Art Craft. Jordan’s upcoming shows in- clude the Potters Guild Christmas Sale, Fusion Pottery and Glass Sale 2008, and the Scugog Showcase of the Arts 2008. For more information on Jordan, visit her website, www.leanneryan- jordan.com. The Durham Potters Guild’s Christmas Pottery Show is at the Ajax Kinsmen Heritage Centre, 120 Roberson Dr., Ajax. It’s open to the public from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sat. Nov. 8 and 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sun. Nov. 9. For more information or for a map, visit www.durham- potters.com.

The big event, which will raise money for the outpatient depart- ment at Lakeridge Health Oshawa, will be held Nov. 29 at 8 p.m. at Hebron Christian Reform Church, 4240 Anderson St. N., Whitby.

WHITBY — Anthony Randall stayed close to home for his latest exhibit of photographs. His works, printed on canvas, were all taken within a short dis- tance of Station Gallery, Henry and Victoria streets, where they are on display until Dec. 1. The exhibit is part of a continu- ing series of wildlife photography in the community gallery, said Station Gallery curator Olexan- der Wlasenko. Randall is the third photographer to have his works exhibited there. The first was Jody Melanson and the second was Gary Blake, of Hampton. The idea, Wlasenko said, is to show the variety of wildlife found in the vicinity of Station Gallery. Randall said his images were taken in places like Cranberry and Thickson Woods. However, one was taken in downtown Os- hawa, behind City Hall. It’s great to show people you can get good photographs in what is, basically, your backyard, he said. Wlasenko said he’ll accept sub- missions for the community gal- lery from local artists and pho- tographers. He can be contacted at the gal- lery at 905-668-4185.

Pickering club inducts new ‘Wall’ member Adam Gomba joins long line of top city swimmers on pool shrine By Al Rivett arivett@durhamregion.com PICKERING — The Pickering Swim Club (PSC) handed out hardware to deserving athletes at its awards banquet at the Annan- dale Golf and Curling Club Satur- day night. In addition, the club also added to its ‘Wall of Fame’ at the Pickering Recreation Complex pool, with one swimmer – Adam Gomba – competing at senior nationals this year. Gomba received his induction plaque from head coach Lucie Hewitt-Henderson and congratu- lations from two-time Canadian Olympian and medallist Stephen Clarke, who served as the guest speaker for the evening. Gomba joins numerous other PSC swim- mers honoured for competing at the national level, including Olym- pians Lisa Flood and Laura Nich- olls. Clarke, who started swimming at the COBRA Swim Club of Bramp- ton at age five, noted his fondest memories in swimming weren’t winning a bronze at the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona, Spain, in the medley relay with teammates Mark Tewksbury, Jon Cleveland and Marcel Gery, but the cama- raderie with the swimmers within his club. “One of the greatest things swimming gives back to you is the friends you make,” Clarke said, adding that three members of his wedding party where from the COBRA club. He had plenty of ups and downs during his swimming career, but he urged the swimmers in the au- dience to not get down on the sport when things don’t go their way, he said. “It’s important that you don’t let disappointment affect your per- ception of the sport. You have to remember the good things you’re getting out of the sport.” In addition to his bronze medal at Barcelona, Clarke also repre- sented Canada at the 1996 Games in Atlanta where he finished sev- enth in the 100-metre butterfly. He also won gold in the 100-metre freestyle and silver in the 100- metre butterfly at the 1994 Com- monwealth Games in Victoria, B.C.

Pickering Soccer Club unveils new field Saturday Kinsmen Park artificial pitch means longer season for PSC players: President By Al Rivett arivett@durhamregion.com PICKERING — In the near future, Pickering Soccer Club athletes will run and kick on a soccer pitch that’s professional quality. The new artificial-turf field at Kins- men Park, with the finishing touches completed recently, will have the same type of surface as BMO field in Toronto, the home of the Toronto FC of Major League Soccer, said PSC president Carl Pearce. “It’s the same kind of surface as BMO field, so our kids will now be playing on what the pros play on; it’s not exactly the same, but it’s comparable,” said Pearce. “All levels of players, rec- reational and competitive teams, will play on one of the top fields in the GTA. There are not many like this, so it’s special for everyone.” After three-and-a-half months of work tearing up the natural grass field and putting down the new ar- tificial turf, the new soccer pitch will be revealed at a special unveiling tomorrow, Saturday, Nov. 1 at 10:30 a.m. In addition to PSC players, execu- tives and coaches, the grand opening will be presided over by Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan, who’ll emcee the event. Also on hand will be repre- sentatives from the Ontario Soccer Association and from the Durham Region Soccer Association. Pearce pointed out the state-of- the-art construction and materials used in the project will allow the soc- cer season to extend several months longer in the city. “The advantage is it will allow us to play earlier in the season and later in the season. It should extend the season three or four months,” he said.

Puck drops on new LOSSA season Thursday against Clarington Central AJAX — The Ajax High School Rams senior boys’ hockey team was perfect in the pre-season, earning two wins in recent action. In a re-match of last year’s Lake Ontario Secondary School Athlet- ics (LOSSA) championship, the Rams downed the Dunbarton High School Spartans of Pickering 5-1. Ajax High also posted a 7-1 victory over the Eastdale Eagles of Osha- wa. Scoring in the Eastdale game were Ryan Brawley with two, Drew Boyd, Pat Mayhew, Scott Desroches, James Doering and Jeff Bray. Garrett Hudson and Kristoff Lyons shared goaltending duties. The Rams open the LOSSA reg- ular season on Thursday against Clarington Central from Bowman- ville at the Ajax Community Centre, pad 1, at 2:30 p.m. Ajax High Rams perfect in pre-season hockey RSS UPDATESRSS UPDATESGet your local news and sports faster newsdurhamregion.compitch will enable the PSC to host more high-profile tournaments that weren’t feasible prior to the construction of the new field. He pointed to the an- nual Ontario Cup playdowns and the prestigious Robbie International Soc- cer Tournament as possibilities. Sand and stone were used for the soccer pitch’s base, with a carpet-like material used to give the field its firm- ness. A silica-based artificial grass was then worked into the carpet to serve as the top layer. “It’s not grass, but it certainly looks like it,” he said. Unlike natural grass fields where the surface doesn’t stay uniform, the artificial turf will retain its surface through all types of weather condi- tions. Some PSC teams, said Pearce, are already testing out the new artificial field prior to the indoor season. All teams will officially be on the field in the spring.
