"Both Oshawa and Ajax have emergency departments that are half what they need to be;' says Jim Armstrong, executive director of the GTA/905 Health Care Alliance, which is looking at restructuring initiatives. "it is definitely a challenge right now, but it is not something that can be solved overnight;' says Mr. Arm- strong.

House arrest lifted for Enzo Romagnuolo :`- Old bail order `more suited' to homicide suspect A judge has varied Enzo Romagn- uolo's bail conditions, saying they were "more suited for someone facing a homicide charge" than for someone facing the charges that brought him to court. Mr. Romagnuolo, 20, was charged with assault causing bodily harm against a police officer, assault while resisting arrest and uttering threats fol- lowing an incident in which his 44 - year -old father Tony was shot and killed by police, and his brother Rocco, 17, critically injured, at the family's Sunderland home Dec. 28. 1udgo Robert Weekes of the Ontario Court, general division, Thursday var- ied bail conditions imposed by Judge Sherrill Rogers on Dec. 31. Judge Rogers had placed Mr. Romagnuolo under what she called "a very onerous form of house arrest:' He was ordered confined to the family home, except for one period of two hours a week in the company of one of the people who put up money for his bail. Judge Rogers also ordered those four people to sign for $100,000 even though prosecutor Jeff Milligan sug- gested only $25,000 should be forfeit- ed if Mr. Romagnuolo did not show up for court. Judge Weekes said Judge Rogers's order should be varied because Mr. Romagnuolo has been offered a job at a grocery store in Newmarket, and be- cause Dr. Hans Arndt, a Toronto psy- chiatrist, said he was satisfied he posed no danger to the public. Judge Weekes accepted Dr. Arndt's testimony that Mr. Romagnuolo should adopt a normal routine as soon as pos- sible, and that the emotional benefits of working might help lessen the de- pression he has experienced since his father was killed. Judge Weekes lowered the amount to be put up by the four guarantors or sureties to $20,000 and allowed Mr. Romagnuolo to leave the family home unaccompanied between 7 a.m. and 7 'p.m. weekdays to work, attend court, visit his lawyer, see doctors or dentists, or visit his brother in hospital. Mr. Romagnuolo can also leave the ;home at any other time in the company of any of his sureties. . Defence lawyer Joseph Bloomen- fekl wanted Mr. Romagnuolo released on his own signature and a promise to keep the peace and be of good behav- iiour, but Judge Weekes said he was concerned by an aspect of Dr. Arndt's testimony. Dr. Arndt said Mr. Romagnuolo aA- mitted to telling York Region Consta- ble Michael Hoskins he would "f— ing kill him" when the constable called the family home on Dec. 20. .`"Phis behaviour is unexplained at this time,' Judge Weekes said. "It may -be mere puffery, but it must be taken seriously." Judge Weekes also ordered Mr. Ro- magnuolo to take grief counselling, and not to communicate with any of the principal officers involved in the case, except through his lawyer. In an interview yesterday, a pale NEMS ADVERTISER SUNDAY EDITION, January 31, 1999 PAGE 3 A/P ENZO ROMAGNUOLO Charged following fatal shooting of his father in confrontation with York and Durham police officers. and haggard -looking Mr. Romagnuolo said he has not yet been able to talk with his brother Rocco, who is still in critical condition at Sunnybrook Health Science Centre.

P PAGE 4 NEWS ADVERTISER SUNDAY EDITION, January 31,1999 Pickering residents may have longer wait but won't be denied care P1CKF.RING From pace I Lakeridge Health Oshawa (formerly Oshawa General Hos- pital). saw almost 1,2(x) patients during the week of Jan. 18 to 24. 147 of whom were admitted to hospital, reports director of com- munity relations Jane DeJong. It has been on critical care bv- pass for 55 hours (up to Jan. 24) — a significant jump from the five hours it was on for the entire month of January last vcar. And that number is expected to in- crease next month. when the hospital joins the Toronto Ambu- lance System and will accept pa- tients on 'redirect' from other hospitals in the GTA. That hospital's emergency department was built to see 40,000 patients a year, but it now sees close to 700X) patients. Nis. Dclong notes. Population in the GTA "is in- creasing twice as fast as else- where in Ontario and we don't have the capacity we need:' ex- plains Mr. Armstrong. "We can make that fit at other times of the year. The bottom lire, he says, "is supply versus demand" and right now. the demand is high. "It's the time of year when many peo- ple are ill and it stretches things" At the Ajax and Pickering BRUCE CLIFF 'Hospitals are full and rerY busy, but I don't think vve're seeing people being turned away.' Health Centre site of the Rouge Valley Health System (formerly Ajax -Pickering General Hospi- tal), "more people are coming in for assistance:' concurs Bruce Cliff, executive vice-president of the Rouge Valley Health System and Chief Operating Officer of the Ajax and Pickering Health Centre. He points to older patients suffering from the flu and falls as What happens when you go to emergency? Your young child has been crying most of the night. and his fever is climbing. It's time to take him to the hospital, you've decided, but with all you've heard about emergency room overcrowding, will you be turned away'? No, reports lane DeJong, di- rector of community relations at "keridge Health Oshawa (for- merly the Oshawa General Hos- pital). Though ambulances may be put on redirect to other hospi- tals, people who walk in the door will not be turned away. But, they may have to wait. And, that wait can be extremely long. "We try to take children and the elderly quickly, because their health can change quick- ly," says Ms. DeJong. Here's how it works: A nurse assesses patients as they arrive at the hospital, and determines their condition. These so-called triage defini- tions vary slightly from one hospital to another, but all are supposed to use the same defin- itions beginning in April. At Oshawa, the categories are: Resuscitation (needs imme- diate care); Emergent (needs immediate medical attention); Urgent (condition requires medical attention within a few hours) and Non -Urgent (condi- tion doers not require resources of emergency services and may have to wait three to five hours). At the same time, the hospi- tal is accepting patients who ar- rive by ambulance and they must be triaged as well. It is when a hospital has a number of patients requiring immediate attention that staff must determine if they can ''safely care for another pa- tient," explains Ms. DeJong. The hospital will list itself as Redirect Consideration. "If there's nowhere else to go and ambulance workers are desperate, they will ask you if they can bring the patient to your hospital;explains Tricia Root, director of emergency services at the Ajax and Picker- ing Health Centre. When a hospital lists itself on Critical Care Bypass, it means "you're unable to handle anybody who is in critical con- dition," says Ms. Root. 1U1sc1,1ssion group to meet AJAX — A guest speak- at St. Andrew's Community er will discuss one aspect of Centre, 46 Exeter Rd. touring Russia at the Tues- Mac Mitchell will dis- day Morning Discussion cuss touring Russian water - Group on Feb. 2 at 9:30 a.m. ways.

Mr. Cliff also recognizes it's the sec- ond year that emergency rooms have suffered from overcrowd- ing and that ambulances throughout the GTA have been put on 'redirect' to somewhere other than their closest institu- tion because of that overcrowd- ing. "The hospitals are full and very busy, but I don't think we're seeing people being turned away. They may have to wait longer:' Mr. Cliff notes. That hospital doesn't yet have statistics on how many patients it saw and how many hours it was on 'redirect' during the month of January; director of emergency services Tricia Root expects those: numbers will he higher than usual. Traditionally, it is on Critical Care Redirect (CCR) just a frac- tion of an hour each month, yet Ms. Root recalls one day this month when it was on CCR for about six hours. "I don't like it for the town," admits Ms. Rett. "I feel for the community... What's holding us back horrendously is the lack of beds. We just can't get beds in the hospital. That's what killing us. Still, the situation "is being addressed:' Ms. Rot assures. The provincial government set a task force that made recom- mendations to improve opera- tion, in emergency ro om% across the GTA following overcrowd- ing problems last year, notes Minister of Community and So- cial Services and Durham West MPP Janet Ecker. That task three "recognized the need to have standard proce- dures for all hospitals to follow to minimize the impact" of over- crowding, notes Ms. Ecker. "Some hospitals would put themselves on 'redirect' very, very quickly." The government committed $75 million over two years, with the first installment released last November "to allow hospitals to increase beds and/or services to allow them to absorb peaks. The second installment is scheduled to be released in April, but "there are standards hospitals must be able to meet to access that money," says Ms. Ecker. Further, the government is moving ahead with plans to fund long-term care beds to get peo- ple out of hospitals if they don't need to be there, while it is spending more money on such preventative care as cardiac pro- cedures, she says. The government will have in- creased emergency room capaci- ty across the province by 18 per cent once funding is in place, Ms. Ecker reports. - A. J.

It catches everybody. "It misses targetting small business by a mile and a half;" he said. "There's no question some small businesses will benefit from this and some won't. They may, by the luck of the draw, luck of the situation, get captured" The bill caps commercial, industrial and multi -residential property tax in- creases, but doesn't affect homeown- ers. The legislation was passed after the final 1998 tax bills were mailed out, so revised '98 bills will have to be sent out to businesses. About 4,050 businesses in Durham will get decreases totalling $19.8 mil- lion, but another 2,750 businesses ex- pecting a decrease will have some of it clawed back. Mr. Clapp noted 1,100 businesses that would have received a decrease will have to pay more because of capping. For industrial properties, about 91 per cent of the decrease will be clawed back, while commercial properties will have 84 per cent clawed back and multi -residential properties will have 65 per cent clawed back. Durham and other municipalities had until Jan. 31 to adopt capping poli- cies, but the provincial government has extended the deadline to Feb. 28. Mr. Clapp said an information brochure supplied by the Province must be included in revised tax bills. Coun. Boychyn questioned if Durham could include an insert as well. "We should ask our residents to di- rect comments to their MPPs and the Ministry of Finance. Let them explain this to people;' Court. Boychyn added. "I want to shift responsibility for ex- plaining this mess to the people who created it, not those who have to do it. Shift it back to the creators of the prob- lem" The provincial formula for deter- mining how much each business will be affected is an "extreme mathemati- cal exercise;' Mr. Clapp noted.

The problem is, nearly all the 'cam- paign' spending is being done by one part% these days -- the governing To- ries. Mike Harris's government has come under heavy criticism for the amount of money being dished out on advertising promoting government policies on health care and education. Just about everywhere you turn, the face or voice of Mr. Harris is loud and clear -- and very partisan -- in his claims of all the good his Tories have done since coming into office in 1995. Estimates of provincial government spending on ads since the Conserva- tive's election nearly four years ago put the price tag at $87 million. That money has come out of our pockets and it's infuriating for those who disagree with the policies of the Tories to think they're pay Ing to have the pro -govern- ment message trumpeted far and wide. Dalton McGuinty, leader of the Op- position Liberals who was the subject of a Tory attack ad last fall, has promised if his party is elected he will °'pull the plug on all taxpayer -funded political advertising" within 100 days of forming the government. "Taxpayers' wallet.% should be off- limits to politicians bent on spending public money for blatantly partisan ads." said Mr. McGuinty. Instead, the Liberal leader argues only government information ads 'in the public interest' should be funded and that such ads must not include the premier's name or face, the name or face of' any cabinet minister or MPP, must be non-partisan and non-political, must include the total cost of the ad and should state. 'Paid for by the taxpayers of Ontario.' It's difficult to argue against Mr. McGuinty on this one. The ads are a commercial for the government and put the Liberals and NDP at a distinct dis- advantage since they don't have the same access to government coffers. Not only that, but the use of so much tax- payermoney -- it will soon crest $100 million -- is obscene and uncon- scionablc. It's hard to make the case welfare re- cipients should accept a 21 per cent cut in their payments, or that hospitals must close or that teachers must in- struct more pericxis for the same pay when the government spends wildly on purely Political propaganda. There's no harm in informing the public -- certainly that's part of the gov- ernment's mandate especially these last four years when we've had incredible changes across the province. But the government should have a fixed budget which it cannot go over to produce non- partisan ads. And those ads should be subject to approval by a committee at arm's length from the government of the day. r0ebrp;e ue Fu%re, &OPINIONS - - ®uHo� ie SER JAN. 3 1 1 9 9 9' t iff LETTERS TO THE EDITOR ton High School and W(xxilands Sidewalks Centennial Public School'?

The board also an- nounced plans that fall to build a $25.8 -million headquarters. It was also the year when we wrote about racial tensions at Pick- ering High School. Hundreds of stu- dents skipped classes one day be- cause of a rumour that ethnic gang members from Toronto and Scarbor- ough were coming here to clash with our students. Police were swamped — as was our newsroom — with phone calls from parents worried about sending their kids to school. And though po- lice braced for a clash and patrolled the area all day, nothing happened. In the aftermath, many students Linda White Staff Writer were upset that their school had been tagged as `racist'. Some politi- cians criticized the media for giving so much publicity to the incident, but it served as a turning point. Within days of the incident, Durham Region councillors set a Regional Chairman's Task Force on Community and Race Relations. Many municipalities also set race relations committees, as did school boards. And it appears their efforts have paid off, as we hear of few racially -motivated incidents in our culturally -diverse community. Today, members of some of those groups are calling on the Region to appoint a person to foster racial har- mony both internally and in the community. "The region has bene- fitted over the years from the work and commitment to race relations," Ajax Race Relations Committee chairman Roland Rutland told coun- cillors. He challenged the Region to be- come a `leader in sustainable race relations... The Region has done a lot, but it's not sustained. It needs to be part of the culture." At the same time, the Social De- velopment Council of Ajax -Picker- ing is hosting a summit next month to "identify and resolve race rela- tions' issues." Obviously, those involved in ad- dressing race relations understand the risks to our community if we rest on our laurels on the issue. And as our communities continue to grow, it's time to consider taking race rela- tions initiatives to the next level. walk from Altona Road to Rose - bank Road has no sidewalks or shoulders.

Believe it or not, a whopping 55 per cent of adults (over the age of 16) in Durham have few or limited reading skills, according to Interna- tional Adult Literacy Survey (IALS) results. The IALS survey, which was taken across Canada (in addition to six other countries) in 1994, scored people at five levels. In Durham, 22 per cent of adults were found to be at Level I (great difficulty in read- ing), while 33 per cent were at Level 2 (limited skills in reading). Among that majority of Durham residents struggling with reading problems is TV host Dan Carter. Unlike most, however, Mr. Carter is very open about his battle and he has also managed to make a pretty good life for himself in spite of it — and despite some pretty awful expe- riences as a child stemming from his learning disability. Mr. Carter, who is the host of the Rogers Cable TV show 'Daytime; says he has struggled from an early age with dyslexia. "When I was in school they fig- ured I just wasn't trying. So they made an example of me. Teachers used to stick me out in the hallway for long periods of time. What they didn't realize was, I just couldn't read the damn book"' He says he also had to suffer the cruel teasing and insults from other school children. It all made sch(x)l unbearable. "I went home every night crying. Every morning my mother had to persuade me to go back to sch(x)l and after lunch she'd have to per- suade me again:" Mr. Carter says his parents were very supportive, sending him for tests, reading and researching to try and find the source of the: problem. In the mid-1970s they finally read about a study done by a U.S. doctor who had pinpointed, and labelled, the ailment of dyslexia. "I was one of the less fortunate ones. I left school in Grade 8, before anyone knew what dyslexia was. And by then the damage to my self- esteem had already been done." Wanda Pitchforth, of the Litera- cy Network of. Durham Region, says damaged self-esteem is just one of the psychological effects of illiteracy or limited literacy skills. Others are higher stress levels (fear Durham resident Dan Carter struggled with dyslexia and had a difficult childhood gro►s•ing up because of it.

The Network, which is funded by the Ministry of Education, the National Literacy Secretariat and Human Resources Department Canada, offers professional devel- opment to teachers, instructors and tutors, among other duties. They also take calls from a hotline, set up to put people in touch with various programs designed to help with basic literacy skills. One of the goals of the Literacy Network is to try and alleviate some Read to your children all year long Literacy Week ends today, but the Literacy Network wants you to take time to read to your children all year long. Wanda Pitchforth of the Literacy Network says parents have a very important role to play in encouraging a lifelong interest in reading in their children. "One thing we're trying to do is bring more awareness to the importance of reading to your kids," says Ms. Pitchforth. "Tomorrow's lead- ers are today's young readers." By reading to your children on a regular basis during their formative years, you will be helping them for the rest of their lives. Don't forget, illiterate children become illiterate adults.

If people stop hiding the prob- lem, they're more likely to ask for help. Public awareness is one way of fighting that stigma, and that's why the Network is getting the word out about Family Literacy Week, being L:clehrated next week. Jan. 25 to 30. There are a number of events being held across Durham to mark the designated week. Some of the stigma in relation to illiteracy stems from public igno- rance. ranee. "Toxo many people think if you didn't learn it in school, you didn't try hard enough;" says Mrs. Pitch - forth. But it's usually not that sim- ple. She says there are many things that can contribute to low literacy ;kills. She points out children learn to read in the early grades of school — grades I to 4. After that they only enhance those skills. Some children simply miss that four-year window of opportunity. It could be difficul- ties at home, such as a sick parent, or no one to help with homework. a learning disability or attention deficit disorder, or teaching strate- gies that don't work for a particular child. Dan Carter has come a long way since his unhappy school days. He radiates confidence, not to mention great pleasure in the work he dons. He says his skill as a TV" host is, at least in part. because of his dyslex- ia. "Communications skills have to become stronger to make up for (the lack of literacy i. Tom Cruise is a pnme example. He also has dyslex- ia and can't read his se:ripLs, so he has to depend on other people. But he's a brilliant actor." Mr. Carter does his part to instill confidence in others who may be- struggling ostruggling with literacy -related problems. He speaks to groups, in- cluding school children, all over Ontario. One of the things he tells them is not to be embarrassed about learning disabilities and other read- ing problems. "It shouldn't be a `dirty little secret.' Instead of trying to hide it, people have to ask for help, like: 'Excuse me I can't read this menu. Can you tell me what the special of the day is?" And offering some additional advice, he says "If you're a kid don't be cruel to another because he or she is having trouble reading. And if you're a parent, don't give up on your kid." New provost of Durham University Centre appointed During a recent staff reorgani- zation, Gary Polonsky, Durham College president, appointed Michelle Nichols provost of the University Centre at Durham College. Ms. Nichols, the former vice- president of post -secondary and continuous learning at Durham College, holds a bachelor of sci- ence degree in nursing from I ,I Lakehead University and an MA, adult education, both in teaching and administration, since 1973. Her results -oriented and ana- lytical approach to management and education enabled Ms. Nichols to head several provin- cial college committees and par- ticipate in a national committee established by the Secretary of State — Science, Research and Development. The committee, comprised of academic, government and indus- try leaders, addressed skills and challenges facing the aerospace sector. Active in the community, Ms. Nichols has been or is a member of the Research Institute, Hospice Durham, Durham Save -A -Heart, Community Care, Rotary Club of Oshawa, Canadian Red Cross So- ciety, Girl Guides of Canada, Canadian Cancer Society and the March of Dimes. In her new role, Ms Nichols will concentrate her efforts and collaborate with the college's university partners, Trent and York universities, to expand the range of program offerings at the University Centre at Durham. :DITION, January 31, IM PAGE 7 AIP Y2K humbug? Boards may change Yule break BY SUSAN O'NF.ILL Staff Writer The Province is allowing school hoards to change the tradi- tional dates for the Christmas holidays this year in an attempt to minimize the impact of computer problems related to the new mil- lennium. And, officials from the re- gion's two school boards say they might take the government up on its offer. "We're suggesting to boards that they can consider it as an op- tion as part of Y2K preparations," says Ministry of Education and Training spokesman Daniele Gauvin, noting some school boards are pushing the return date back to Jan. 10 so they can deal with any glitches that might arise before students return to school. "We'll he suggesting that they consider changing the dates for the holidays (to run from Dec. 23 through Jan. 10) but we won't be requiring it:' she adds. The millennium bug stems from the fact that older electronic devices were programmed to only process the last two digits of the year. If not fixed before the year 2(X)O, computers may interpret the year '00' as 1900 and not 2000. That'; a problem that could potentially cause shutdowns and malfunctions. "We're looking at it right now." reports Walter Yewchy n, superintendent of education for the Durham Catholic District School Board. However, he says the board's decision to move the dates could depend on whether the public board also changes the holiday. -It will be another two weeks before we touch base with every- body involved,' he says, noting because the tegion's two school boards share transportation ser- vices, it's better if the school year calendars match. He cites student safety as the primary reason for considering the change. "You have to take a look at whether the buses will be run- ning, whether the heating system will be operational:' he says, ex- plaining pushing the return date back from Jan. 3 to 10 would give the board more time to address any problems that arise. At Durham District School Board, Mary Shea reports the board is not planning to change the dates for the Christmas break, but could still decide to do so. "We had decided to go with the regular break," she says. "We're not anticipating any prob- lems with the Y2K" However, Ms. Shea says if the Ontario government thinks there could be problems affecting school boards then the board may opt to move the holiday dates.

NEWS ADVERTISER SUNDAY EDITION, January 31, 1999 PAGE 9 AIP Advo dsft Feature Options For Seniors For many seniors the necessity of having to give up their homes is both a scary and difficult time. Some seniors have the opportunity of moving in with their children, which is a wonderful solution, but what about for those for whom this option is just not possible? That's the reason for a "Home Care Facility" like Stonehaven Manor. Stonehaven Manor originated out of a very personal experience while dealing with seniors and their transition into a retirement facility. Large institutions with their set meals, programs and changing staff are big adjustments, especially for seniors who have been used to their independence. Stonehaven Manor is designed to offer an alternative to these larger institutions. Under the expert care of 'Marjorie Beattie, an experienced retirement home administrator and registered nurse, residents are provided with expert health care and emotion support, while maintaining a degree of independence. Residents have a voice in what thev eat and when, and even can participate in the preparation and other domestic chores if they so choose, much like they might do if living with family members. Great care was taken in selecting the perfect location for Stonehaven. The mission statement required the home to be a part of a neighbourhood that would be close to stores and other amenities, as most seniors were active contributors to their community in the past. Stonehaven Manor offers 7,100 sq. ft. of living space with hive spacious suites, offering accommodations for up to 7 residents. Several common areas provide residents with private space for reading or entertaining family and friends. The larger common areas invite social interaction with a variety of planned or spontaneous activities. The gracious interior is complemented by spacious grounds. Surrounded by lush cedar hedges, the manicured lawns, shade and fruit trees, inground heated pool, gazebo and benches, provide complete outdoor privacy. Homes like Stonehaven Manor offer an alternative for retirement living in a way that is sensitive to the growing demands and desires of todav's seniors. /f this alternative interests you or someone you love, call Marjorie Beanie.

Or angioplasty to remove a blockage in coronary arteries. Or a coronary bypass op- eration. Who should perform these procedures'? Where should they be done? These are questions patients and families of an aging popula- tion are asking more often. The an- swers may mean the difference be- tween life and death. One component of the answer is 'Critical Mass.' Or, put another way, the old dictum is still true, 'Practise makes perfect.' Whether you're a plumber or a surgeon the more work you do the better the re- sults. Dr. James Hollis, Assistant Pro- fessor of Medicine at Duke Uni- versity in Durham, North Carolina, stressed this point at a meeting of the American Heart Association. Patients, he said, were more likely to die or require emergency bypass surgery at the time of an- gioplasty when treated by low-vol- ume surgeons working in low-vol- ume hospitals. During angioplasty doctors try to open a coronary artery that is partially blocked by an atheroscle- rotic lesion. One method is to in- sert a balloon into the coronary artery which pushes the lesion against the wall. Or to insert a 'stent,' a device which holds the ar- terial walls open. But there's a problem. Dr. Hol- lis reported over half the doctors performing angioplasty in the U.S. failed to do sufficient cases to ac- quire expertise, You don't have to be a rocket scientist to conclude this causes needless complications and deaths. In 1988 in an effort to avoid these catastrophes U.S. doctors were issued guidelines. They were instructed not to perform angio- plasty unless they were doing 50 cases a year. And hospitals were advised they should do a minimum of 200 procedures or none at all. So what happened:' A large number of physicians and hospi- tals ignored the guidelines. The re- sult was predictable. A survey showed for doctors performing fewer than 25 angio- plasties a year, 6.1 per cent of pa- tients required either follow-up by- pass surgery or died in hospital. For doctors doing over 50 cases a The Doctor Game W. Gifford -Jones M.D. year 4.7 per cent of patients re- quired bypass or died. This proved what has been known for years about coronary bypass surgery. High-volume sur- geons working in high-volume hospitals have fewer post-opera- tive complications and deaths. Canadians are better protected from super -surgery than Ameri- cans. It's impossible to have car- diac surgery in a small community hospital in Canada. The govern- ment refuses to purchase equip- ment for a hospital that does not have proper staff and back-up fa- cilities. In the U.S. hospitals can carry out these procedures if they can af- ford the expensive setup and have doctors on their staff willing to un- dertake the surgery. But in Canada there's not total protection. For instance, a recent report reveals radical surgery for cancer of the pancreas is at least twice as risky if done by a low-vol- ume surgeon in a low-volume hos- pital. In fact, in a hospital that does fewer than three cases a year the risk can be four times higher! What is shocking is that sur- geons who are performing fewer than three cases a year subject pa- tients to this complicated opera- tion. That requires a surgeon with either the technical wizardry of a Michael Jordan, or someone who believes he or she is related to the Almighty. No one should do a gallbladder operation who is only doing less than three a year. And no one, ab- solutely no one, should do major cancer surgery unless that person is a high-volume surgeon. Surgical skill is not the only factor to determine the number of complications and deaths follow- ing surgery. Good anesthesia is critical in these operations. So is the availability of nurses specially trained in these techniques and in - Federal health minister plans visit t It's a dinner that could he good for your Gerard Kennedy, Ontario opposition health The event, which is co-sponsored by the health concerns. critic, will be guests of honour at the Check Oshawa federal and provincial Liberal associ- Allan Rock, federal minister of health, and Up 2000 Dinner next month in Oshawa. ations. will be of particular interest to health Dinner to benefit Durham Alzheimer Society You can celebrate Valentine's Day early this year with the Alzheimer Society of Durham Region.

Patients should not need a course in 'Medicine 101' to reach this conclusion. But studies in the U.S. reveal patients often make the wrong decision. If given the choice of a large hospital far away from home or a small community hospi- tal nearby they choose the one close to home. For any operation the best in- surance policy includes a first- class surgeon with skilled hands. And for angioplasties, bypass surgery and major cancer opera- tions it is especially risky to think otherwise. So where should they be performed'! Not all things are done better in university hospitals. I know sur- geons in small community hospi- tals that I would trust with my own life. Others in university hospitals I wouldn't trust with my dog. But pound -for -pound one of the wisest decisions in major procedures is the choice of a university hospital. These teaching institutions must obviously have a high vol- ume of all kinds of surgery, and they control stringently whose hands do the cutting. • Proven -All Natural Methods • Lots of Energy, Without Hunger • Private, Professional Counseling • For Men, Women, Children • New 12 Step Maintenance Program 4w o7,s yCen t%gnt Loss a tMeUnesa of can.w OSHAWA WHITBY PICKERING 436-2122 666-5050 420-4220 AROMATHERAPY MASSAGE AWA ABLE N PICIEp Call For a FREE Consultation I�xcE YOU CALL.118ME) SEE OUR RENOVATED SUITES ONE I& TWO BEDROON1 UNITS N 0 kVA .,k 11 :11j1: OFF -wirr� - _ ... -. - -_..• _�. 10 ADVERTISING FEATURE Ob NEWS ADVERTISER SUNDAY EDITION, January 31, 1999 PAGE 13 AIP You wantear.?Are tout acan a on m Have you ever been troubled by any of the following symp- toms? If so, someone may have suggested you try ear candling. • Earaches • Loss of Hearing • Excessive Ear Wax • Tinnitus (buzzing) • Swimmer's Ear • Headaches • Sinus Problems • Itching in the ears • Cysts • Allergies • Sore Throats • Ringing in the ears • Dizziness . If you have any of these symptoms, you may be interested in looking into an ancient and gen- tle technique called Ear Candling (also known as Ear Coning). Historically Ear Candling has been around in many cultures dating back centuries. In European history it dates back to biblical times when hollow reeds were used. In Mayan and Aztec cul- tures, glazed clay or stone cones were used. Populations from the continents of Asia and the Americas also used this gentle healing art although materials var- ied. With the trend to natural healing growing in popularity, Ear Candling has once again surfaced and become a popular practice. It is for those searching for a more natural way to alleviate head and upper respiratory pressure, improve their hearing or sense of smell or for general well being. There are good all natural candles used today made of unbleached natural cotton, dipped in 100% beeswax infused with botanically certified essential oils. The oils are chosen according to their energies vital to the body for healing and provide anti-inflam- .matory, decongestant and soothing properties. A gentle massage with specially prepared oils on the neck and face is very enjoyable and sets the tone for the relaxation and cleansing to follow. The heat and low pressure created by the burning candle gen- tly seated in the ear forms a vacu- um which regulates pressure in the sinus area and draws up earwax and impurities into the unburnt part of the candle. Marry people remark on feeling pressure relief and a lighter feeling in the head area after the candling. Locally applied heat has the effect of stim- ulating peripheral blood circula- tion which in turn strengthens the immune system and enhances the lymph circulation. The whole process is pleasant and relaxing. It is not uncommon for a client to remark that they could easily fall asleep while getting a treatment. There is a deep sense of well-being and relax- ation. Some common pos- itive effects of Ear Candling: • gentle removal of excess earwax build-up, fungus, bacteria, yeast, Candida, ear mites, worms or parasites • soothing and relaxing release of stress • pressure regula- tion to head and ears • relief of ear and sinus irritations • stimulation of the ear reflex points • activation of cir- culation and drainage of the local lymphatic sys- tem The protective secretion of earwax is meant for lubricating and waterproofing and pro- tecting the ear canal from foreign particles. However when there is excessive ear wax hearing can become dis- torted and as this gener- r enwood Holistic fflealth Care Centre 619-14os Ear Candling Cold & Flu Iridology Herbal Remedv Making Available Now Sat Class Feb 27th 10 - 3 Dm CALL FOR MORE INFORMATIO.Y A peaceful c-ountri retreat Highway 7 and VVestne}• yr i Irl nnn from downtown Prckcnn� r affordable Dentures ...

Discomfort can come suddenly after a shower or bath caused by water entering the ear and making the earwax swell. Bacteria and parasites find that ears with wax buildup are a good place to proliferate and can cause infections. After the session you may feel lightness and noises may appear louder. You may also find your sinuses are draining or that the drainage has increased. This will relieve pressure in the sinus and any sinus headache should decrease. Your sense of taste, smell and sight may also be heightened. This is an Old Home remedy which makes no claim to cure any diseases or ailments. However, it has stood the test of time and is still relevant today.

The Basics of Meditation Meditation trains attention, attitude, and energy. The training of attention develops mindfulness which is the ability to pay atten- tion to the present moment instead of being distracted by thoughts of the past or future. The training of our attitudes leads to a balanced and open heart that enables us to work with situa- tions. The training of energy leads to an efficient interaction of mind and body. DIL JOSEPH A.

More than 2,500 volunteers will be out bearing the cold in efforts to raise $253,000 for heart dis- ease and stroke research and health promotion. "Canvassing is one of the most effective ways to raise much needed funds while at the same time we are also let- ting our neighbours know the Foundation is right here in your community" says Jack Hutchinson Durham West Campaign Chair. The Heart and Stroke Foundation not only funds research but works very hard to help you to improve your health. "If at any time a person is inter- ested in learning more about heart disease and stroke or risk factors and warning signs related to the diseases, the Ajax office and Oshawa office can provide resources to lead you in the right direction" noted Susan Chouinard Durham West Area Manager. The Foundation also has a 24 hour 1-888-473-4636 phone number to have informa- 7W. tion mailed to you. The dollars donated during the February Campaign will go towards funding 22 research teams at 220 research sites in Ontario. The following research projects are currently being fund- ed by dollars raised through fundraising efforts: Development of neuropro- tective drugs that can be given after a stroke to pre- vent or minimize brain dam- age Identification of the genes involved in the development of high blood pressure, obe- sity, pulmonary hypertension, and other cardiovascular dis- eases.

In 1995, heart disease and stroke accounted for 39% of all Canadian deaths, 79,000 deaths that year. Make your I��RSP more .than a tax break. The key to growth is to start on solid ground.

The Heart and Stroke Foundation has taken steps to ensure easy recognition of their volunteer canvassers during February, Heart Month. Look for the familiar red and white Foundation logo button pinned to your volunteer can- vasser. The logo is also prominently dis- played on materials in the infor- mation kit distributed by the Foundation volunteer. As well, the logo appears again on your tax receipt should you make a donation. "This is the second year of this canvasser identification program. It's working wonders in taking the guess work out of door-to-door giving.- says Julia Long, Oshawa Campaign Chair. Last year during Heart Month, the Foundation's volunteer ranks swelled to over 60,000 people. "We need to try and cover almost every community in the province" says Julia. "Only with such dedi- cated volunteers can this life-saving campaign reach its goal." Last year, these vol- unteers raised $4.7 million. The goal this year is to top $5 million in dona- tions.

This year, the Foundation was able to fund only 37 per cent of the research funds requested of it. That means a signifi- cant amount of potentially life-saving research goes unfunded. Part of the answer lies in building awareness and through the continued dedication and commitment of our many volunteers and staff throughout the province. Last year, fund raising revenues were up by 11 per cent over the previous year. It's this kind of special commitment and enthusiasm that has become a hall- mark of the Heart and Stroke Foundation.

Thanks to the help of these network partners, a new Heart Healthy Kids Presentation for- mat will be available for elementary schools this spring. Three Durham Region secondary school drama classes will be working hard next semester to develop interactive pre- sentations that they will soon be tak- ing on the road! About forty Durham Region elementary schools will have the distinct pleasure of enjoying these entertaining and educational presen- e'tations in the near future! The Foundation extends a special thank you to Monsignor John Pereyma, Henry St., and Port Perry High Schools for including their drama stu- dents, and dedicating their time to teach students at a young age the importance of maintaining a healthy, balanced diet, getting regular exer- cise, and living smoke free. Hoops For Heart is in its 4th year and follows a similar format to Jump Rope For Heart, however, the stu- dents play basketball , as opposed to skipping. Hoops For Heart is designed for students between the ages of 11 to 18 years, and is grow- ing rapidly! Hoops is also a fantastic way of getting the students involved with the community by supporting a great cause, while educating them about the importance of maintaining a heart healthy lifestyle. Every school that registers for H000s For Heart will receive a Hoops For Heart Power Pack The components include a CPR video, a student resource guide filled with educational information about smoking, nutrition, and physical activity, along with a "National Awareness" calendar. Fit For Heart, is in its 17th year and is designed for adults. We encourage the participants to collect pledges, and in turn participate in any sport or activity such as aerobics, walking, or hockey. The Heart and Stroke Foundation recognizes the impor- tance of adopting a healthy lifestyle and wishes to convey that it is never too late to start caring for your heart! The Heart and Stroke Foundation wishes to thank all of the schools and facilities who have taken part in one of our exercise events programs, and congratulations to all of the volunteers for their success in helping us to fight Canada's #1 Killer of both men and women!

Former Denis O'Connor student stars with NFL Atlanta Falcons on Santiago has eyes Super Bowl Y BY BRIAN Mc•NAIR Staff Writer O.J. Santiago is on the verge of capturing football's greatest prize and thus com- pleting a seemingly impossi- ble dream. Santiago was very much a factor in the Atlanta Falcons' surprising 30-27 overtime vic- tory Sunday over the Min- nesota Vikings. a feat that sends the Falcons to Miami for a Super Bowl tilt with defend- ing champion Denver Broncos this Sunday. Setting aside a first-half fumble that led to a Viking touchdown. Santiago hauled in two passes during the Fal- cons' overtime drive, which culminated in Morten Ander- sen's 3X-\ and field goal. Quar- terback Chris Chandler found Santiago for receptions of 15 and 26 yards during the final drive. '•I'd be lying if I said I knew we were going to the Sur Bowl this year... Santia- go said during a recent tele- phone interview from Atlanta.. "About four or five weeks ago. we realized it was possible." Indeed, the Falcons have taken giant strides under head coach Dan Reeves. improving from 3-13 in 1996 to 7-9 in Santiago's rookie season last )ear to 14-2 this season. But as amazing as the team's story is. Santiago's per- sonal tale is even more re- markable. 'Vow 24, the 6 -foot -7, 270 - pound tight end only started taking the game seriously in Grade 12 at St. Michael's Col- lege School in Toronto, where he transferred after spending Grade 9 at Archbishop Denis O'.Vonnor Catholic High School in Ajax and Grades 10 and I 1 at Anderson Collegiate in Whitby. He went on to earn a schol- arship with Kent State Univer- sity in 1993 and was drafted by the Falcons in the third round in 1997. After a fine rookie cam- paign was cut short by a bro- ken leg last year, Santiago es- tablished himself as one of the best tight ends in the NFL this sea%n. His 27 receptions for 428 yards and five touchdowns were good enough to earn him a spot as an alternate in the -Pro Bowl. "The guys around here sav I'm spoiled;" Santiago says of his teammates, sone ol' whom have toiled for 15 years to reach this pinnacle. "We plan to have a little fun down there in Miami;' says Santiago. -I just want to soak in the whole experience." That said, Santiago will have no trouble getting up for the biggest game of his life. "That game is so big and so important, I don't think there's any way you can't stay fo- cused;' he says. Asked if the Falcons could beat the Broncos, who are favoured by more than a touchdown for the game. San- tiago points out the Falcons have already beaten the odds several times this season, in- cluding on Sunday when they beat the heavily -favoured Vikinvs. a "I really believe and I think everyone believes he says. "I think it really started when we went up and beat New Eng- land and came back home and beat San Francisco:' The win over the Patriots in Game 12, which came by a re- sounding 41-10 score, was a breakthrough effort both for the team, which improved to 10-2, and Santiago, who scored two touchdowns. "We proved we could play with any team.- Santiago says. "When we go up against the Broncos, we have to prepare like it's another opponent we have to beat" If the script continues along these lines, look for Santiago to be doing his 'Dirty Bird' touchdown dance Sunday in Miami and returning home to show off his Super Bowl ring shortly thereafter. i 3 1 1 9 9 9 jax Spartans' Minor Baseball Association 140 141 2m:2101) mw (•) o i SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 6,1999 10 am - 1 pm, Ajax Community Centre, HMS Ajax Room *Jr. T -Ball - $75; Major & Minor T -Ball - $90; Rookie Ball - $95; All Other Divisions - $100 • Birth Certificate & Ontario Health Card necessary to register!
