RUTA Staff Writer Durham's Catholic school hoard got into a deficit situation because it hired more teachers than it needed based on an overes- timate of students for the current school year, officials heard this week. Durham Catholic District School Board trustees approved the transfer of $695,604 in reserve funds to help erase the deficit in the 1999-2000 budget. And, an additional $450,175 in unexpect- ed revenue will also be applied to balance the budget. Board business superintendent -David Visser explains officials overestimated how many students there'd be this school year when they drew up the 1999-2000 bud- get.

The Region's health and social ser- vices committee is calling on Durham council to support a motion indicating its opposition to the new policy that will see people who cheat the system be- come permanently ineligible for social assistance. "Thc question is, 'Is a lifetime ban good public policy?"' says Brock Coun- cillor and committee chairman Lang O'Connor. He believes the govern- ment's policy is "very shortsighted". Anyone convicted in court of social assistance fraud based on an offence committed after April I of this year will be permanently disqualified from re- ceiving future henelits. Prior to April 1, recipients found guilty of fraud were banned from re- ceiving benefits for three months on their first conviction and six months for subsequent offences. "People usually have a second chance with everything else. Life is a long time;' Coun. O'Connor says. "It's a cookie -cutter (approach) that doesn't work in every circumstance. They're not looking at the larger picture" Coun. O'Connor adds the lifetime ban raises concerns because of the im- pact it could have on children of welfare recipients. For example, a single person could be convicted of welfare fraud to- day and then 10 years down the road when they have two children and need SEPARATED iiiiiiiii 01VORCEM.

Two of those options fo- cused on marina -based de- velopment, while the other two focused on creating a tourist destination in the area with recreation oppor- tunities and a mix of resi- dential and commercial space. But, as Mr. Kelland re- ports, Frenchman's Bay is considered a hazardous area for boating by the coast guard. And, he says the cre- ation of a tourist destination raises concerns about the impact on the environmen- tally -sensitive bay area. "With the small area we're talking about, we did- n't see any of those plans fit- ting into the space:' he says. "The area doesn't really tit any of those models."' Last December, council- lors endorsed the terms of reference for the design study, which was requested by residents to guide devel- opment in the south Liver- pool Road area. The study was triggered by two development appli- cations. One from the Pick- ering Harbour Company is for a 'marine village', in- cluding 40 townhouse units, on the west side of Liver- pool Road just south of Wharf Street. A second phase of the prc�iect may in- clude a marina, 140 -unit ho- tel, restaurant, retail space, office uses and additional residential uses on property that would require lakefill to the west of the townhouses, but details have not yet been provided. The second application from G. and A. Hilts on the east side of Liverpool just south of Wharf Street is for the construction of a 'ma- rine village' with 19 town- houses, some parking and boat storage, and limited commercial uses such as professional offices and a day-care facility. The study, which is di- vided into two phases, will examine both sides of Liver- pool Road roughly from Commerce Street to Lake Ontario. Part One will pre- pare development guidelines addressing land use and community design issues and an implementation strat- egy which will guide the re- view of rezoning applica- tions. Phase two will prepare detailed urban design and landscape guidelines, which will be used to guide the re- view of more detailed site plan applications and infra- structure designs. "We're spending a lot of money on our waterfront which is going to create a lot of development pressure.

"I think this is the first time in 20 years we overestimated what our en- rolment picture would be," board edu- cation director Grant Andrews said. "Is that one of the reasons we have so many portables, that we've been too conservative (in our estimates) in the past?" asked Oshawa Trustee Joe Corey. Mr. Andrews replied the two are "totally unrelated". He noted the Province's decision mandating lower class sizes required the board to in- crease pupil places. "We needed instant accommoda- tion, which we were able to provide through portables;' said Mr. Andrews. Mr. Visser said in his report to trustees the change in the fiscal year of school boards is -the prime reason there has not been a negative enrol- ment fluctuation" in previous years. In the past, school boards passed the cur- rent year's budget in May, when half of the fiscal year was over and 60 per cent of the enrolment figures required by the Education Ministry were known. As a result of the new student - focused funding model. Mr. Visser re- ported, school boards now approve budgets in June for the following school year. "At the time the budget is approved zero per cent of the enrolment re- quired by the ministry is known;' he said. "Therefore, there is greater chance of variation" The board not only spent more than was required on the Classroom In- struction portion of the budget, but it also overestimated Continuing Educa- tion enrolment, budgeting about $258,000 more than was necessary, according to the revised figures. After setting the budget in June, the board revises its estimates from what it planned for, to what has actually oc- curred, in the fiscal year to date. In September, a final budget assessment is conducted. -In our year-end close our deficit position could decrease," said Mr. Visser. The Catholic board is about to be- gin its 2000-2001 budget process. Draft one is to be presented to trustees .,-at the May 8 board meeting. The pro - 'posed final draft is to be passed on June 26. •lhelrMlrllrrrdrllrrAer -- •IrtnrldhlR+Mlaaelr • Irwrlip, ON, IfR ehrrre AireYw •C I - 1 keny,blilimilift I L 1999 Tax Return Preparation Nwk a~ireCwAawr oerrniiMt im LMaNN RSM dill.

At least we think so Vague announcement about colleges hard to peg Durham College president Gary Polonsky was surely grinning through clenched teeth on Friday after the an- nouncement from Dianne Cunningham, Ontario's Minister of Training, Colleges and Universities. It was good news, sort of. The minis- ter said some of the province's 25 com- munity colleges would be able to confer applied degrees beginning in September 2001. To some extent, that fits with Durham's aim to establish a university on the college site and to allow students to get a combined degree -diploma. However, the minister didn't indicate which colleges would get degree -granti- ng status, nor did she specify what de- grees would be offered. To be sure a Bachelor of Nursing will be part of the package since thousands of nurses will be needed by 2005 when a degree be- comes compulsory for nurses here. Mr. Polonsky still holds out hope Durham will be an exception to the rest of the community college community. The long -held goal at the regional school has been to establish a full- fledged university which would share administration and some resources with the established college. In other words, Ms. Cunningham's announcement is only a half -measure, at least when you look at Durham's plan. There: was good news for the college however as it rated No. I in Ontario among community colleges in key per- formance indicator surveys. Durham College is held in high esteem by its graduates and employers and also scores very high in efficiency ratings. Durham consistently gets the most 'bang for its buck' when it comes to spending on students. So the college should be a winner with the Province since it is effective, ef- ficient and innovative. In fact, you could say Durham is the ultimate success story among institutions of its kind. With all that going for it, perhaps the Province could see making Durham a special case and provide for a full-blown university at the Oshawa campus, one that can at- tract students far and wide with the lat- est cutting-edge learning experience. The Province also announced private universities would be introduced, some- thing completely new in Ontario. With- out a current university, whose to say an operator wouldn't want to place a pri- vate university in Durham Region'? Cer- tainly, the region could support it since there isn't a university here now. We still hold out hope the Province will see that in a fast-growing district like Durham there's a place for a univer- sity. And the plan to put such a facility at the college is by far the best one out there. E,Mail comments on this opinion to shouston6durham.net.

The key performance indicator (KPI) surveys help determine how much money colleges will receive from the Province, which this year increased funding for the institutions by $16 million, to $722 million. Of that new money. $14 million is allocated based on the results of the KPls. The most recent surveys found: • Three out of four Durham Col- lege students were satisfied with the school: • 92 per cent of �oraduates found School tops in Ontario, say students, grads, employers jobs within six months; • 93 per cent of employers were pleased with the Durham College graduates they hired; • 81 per cent of grads were satis- fied with their jobs. • six per cent of students weren't happy with Durham College, the smallest percentage of pupils at similar schools throughout On- tario. The College's total score was 340 points, three more than achieved by second -place Hum- ber College. "We are absolutely thrilled;" says Bonnie Ginter -Brown, Durham College executive direc- tor of student services and com- munications. "It's a nice place to be, Durham College, and it's nice to he recognized for that" She reports the college has for a long time given out feedback forms to every student, asking them to rate the school's perfor- mance and suggest improvements that can be made. "We've always been really committed to customer service and continuous improvement;" says Ms. Ginter -Brown. There has been some criticism of how the KPI money is handed out, since colleges which finish with the lowest ratings receive none of the performance money. As well, the difference in scores between colleges which receive money and those which don't is often a small one. "All of the colleges have done well and most folks have moved up in the performance scores," says Ms. Ginter -Brown. She ac- knowledges "there is kind of a fine line in terms of how the funding is doled out" But she notes the KPI method was endorsed by Ontario's col- lege presidents' committee. Ms. Ginter -Brown points out KPIs "are not written in stone" and the method of funding could disappear.

NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, April 30, 2000 PAGE 11 A/P st r pagedeYounge to serve frl gpnds in hl h laces Ajax boy gets an insider's look at the goings-on at Queen's Park BY NATHAN JANKOWSKI Special to the News Advertiser AJAX — John Craig McEach- nie has been hobnobbing with the movers and shakers of Ontario. He's spent his days in the compa- ny of decision makers, powerful people who run the Province from Queen's Park. No, he's not a politician. He's a 13 -year-old kid. What sets John Craig apart from most people his age is that he has served as a legislative page in provincial parliament. The Grade S student at St. Francis de Sales Catholic School in Ajax had to leave for work every weekday at 6:30 a.m. to ar- rive on time in the legislative chambers at Queen's Park. John Craig was one of 20 pupils chosen for the position out of 800 applicants from schools across Ontario. And he has quite a portfolio which helped earn him the privi- lege to work with Cabinet minis- ters who hold portfolios. John Craig is an honours stu- dent who participates in many different activities at school, such as the music program and sports teams. He's been very involved in the Pickering Village community where he has resided his whole life, he's a youth representative of Amnesty International and he's a News Advertiser carrier. "We were very proud of him (when he was chosen as a page);" says his mother Nancy. "It was a great surprise for him:' On a typical day, John Craig arrived at Queen's Park early and had some free time to share with the other pages who had access to stereos, computers and even a ping pong table. Attendance was taken and their normal morning duties fol- low. Some of his responsibilities included delivering messages and reports to MPPs and ensuring files were kept up to date. John Craig and his fellow pages had to be aware of the names of all MPPs, the ridings they represent and, in the case of Cabinet ministers, the portfolios they hold. But, most crucially, the pages couldn't be political like the peo- ple they serve. "It is very important that we were non-partisan;" says John Craig. "We had to make sure we served all of the members equal- ly.- From qual- ly "From watching the legislators in action, the youngsters learned things like how laws are made and how the province of Ontario is governed. And, according to John Craig's mom, her son's vo- cabulary has improved by listen- ing to conversations and debates. The pupils stayed on top of their school studies since they were out of class for four weeks. through a tutoring program of- fered at the legislature every day from 4 to 5 p.m. John Craig was out of school from March 29 and returned to regular classes on Tuesday. April 25. Although the position is non - paid, pages do receive a $10 -per - day honourarium and can qualify for a four -per cent bonus if they do a good job. But, it's the experience that counts most. "The experience has been great:" says John Craig. "I've made lots of friends" Friends in high places. John Craig McEachnie has time these da•s to shoot baskets at his Ajar home. That's a change from the demands that go with being a Queen's Park page. a prestigious job he held for a month.

In addition, "The quality of life we're entitled to in this community keeps us involved in the United Way;' John Tory told the annual general meet- ing of the Ajax -Pickering United Way Wednesday. About 100 people at the meeting at the Kinsmen Heritage Centre in north Ajax got a pep talk from Mr. Tory, the deputy chairman of the Toronto United Way's 2000 fund-raising campaign. He reported his work with the Unit- ed Way represents "the best hours I spend and the most self -satisfying hours." When he's not working with the United Way, Mr. Tory keeps busy as a lawyer with the firm Torys (formerly Tory Tory DesLaurier Binnington), the president and CEO of Rogers Cable Inc. and the commissioner of the Cana- dian Football League. "When people think about or talk about why it's special where we live in southern Ontario, they talk about health care or the prosperity;' he said. "Ibere's a huge advantage, a gift, a blessing, it's the quality of life we enjoy. There's a sense of stability. We're rich in diversi- ty. We have people who all get along with one another and we take from each other." No matter how good things seem to be in a community, there will always be people who are less fortunate, Mr. Tory noted. 'Ilk ultimate strength of a com- munity is how we respond to those peo- plc. ' 'here's a safety net in programs of- fered by governments;' he pointed out. "Tice safety net is maintained by people, by volunteers. There's a certain level of caring and compassion" The strength of Canada "isn't about health care or hockey;' Mr. Tory added. "It's about an inner value. We keep an eye out on our neighbours. We take an active part and get out (and help)" And, some of those people who are helped out end up helping out others themselves. For example, Mr. Tory noted that during a Toronto United Way fund-rais- ing cabinet visit to one of the agencies aided by the organization, he met a vol- unteer at a drop-in centre on College Street. At one time, the man had been in a management position at City hall, but an alcohol problem cost him first his family, then his job and finally his home. "He was literally a person living on the streets," Mr. Tory said. The man then visited the drop-in centre and found help. "He got over the alcohol and he's got a job. He's on the road back and that's why he was there (volunteering), to help DENNIS GOULIN 'It's a privilege working with so many wonderful volunteers.' people on the street;' Mr. Tory said. "How far is any of us from the situa- tion of this man, being on the street? These arc people who come from pretty ordinary circumstances who underwent an extraordinary situation" The United Way is "operated, popu- lated by and decisions made by citizens. The money comes from citizens and goes to citizens;' he noted. Meanwhile, Mr. Tory's counterpart in Ajax and Pickering is taking over the local United Way. Fund-raising director Edna Klazek was passed the reigns of the United Way of Ajax -Pickering by outgoing executive director Dennis Goulin, who's retiring at the end of May. "I'm very happy to take this role" Ms. Klazek said. "It's thrilling to work in this community and know the chal- lenges ahead" With those challenges come re- wards, said Mr. Goulin. "I told Edna she's coming into the best job in the world, certainly the best job in Ajax and Pickering. "It's a privilege working with so many wonderful volunteers;" he said. United Way presidents Mr. Goulin has worked with were "a source of great leadership, inspiration and knowledge. "I have special thanks for the volun- teer chairs. They guide the fund-raising engine for all the good the United Way does in the community" The service providers "are a joy to work with and your dedication is out- standing," Mr. Goulin added. Ms. Klazek's former role will be filled by Allan Gibbins, president of Hubbell Canada in Pickering. The 2000 fund-raising chairman said he's "pleased and very honoured to undertake the challenge of being the 2000 chairman" Mr. Gibbins said, "At Hubbell, we never let someone get away with the same level as the previous year. So the bar (for the United Way's fund-raising efforts) has been raised" Also at the annual meeting, Doug Best, a volunteer with Ajax -Pickering Community Care, was honoured as the recip- ient of the Kathy M� Kay Com- munity Service Award. It's given annually to a volunteer who has made an outstanding contrihu- tion to the communities of Ajax and Pickering. In announcing the award, United Way director Paul Pakyam said, "We had several nominations and each was wor- thy.- But, or- thy"But, Mr. Best was chosen best. "He's kind, thoughtful. dedicated and always ready to help;' Mr. Pakyam said. Mr. Best has been a volunteer with Community Care since 1987, transporting people to ap- pointments. "When driving clients, it did- n't matter if there was rain, sleet or snow, he always got them where they needed to go;" Mr. Pakyam reported. "I've enjoyed my efforts with Community Care;" Mr. Best said. "It fills one of the empty spots in my life. It's something I wanted to do " We're Doing It Again!

LIS 2H5 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, April 30, 2000 PAG"fi, M Accused testifies in manslaughter trial he didn't shake babyg BY STEPHEN SHAW Staff Writer "I swear to God on my life, my son's life, anyone's life I did not shake Zachary, I loved him, I loved his mother, I cared for him;" jail guard Craig Schneider professed to police after his Oct. 8, 1997 arrest in the shaking death of his girlfriend's two-year-old son. During a three-hour videotaped interview, Detective Rolf Kluem of the Durham Region- al Police Homicide Unit urged the 32 -year- old Oshawa man to confess to the assault which left the battered child with fatal brain injuries. "Your story doesn't work and I want the truth. Tell me the truth, the truth about what happened;' he demanded. Mr. Schneider has pleaded not guilty to a charge of manslaughter in the death of Zachary Underwood. The Superior Court of Justice trial has heard Mr. Schneider was caring for Zachary at the home of Dawn Underwcral, the child's mother, the night of Oct. 4, 1997 when she briefly left home to go to the drug store. The Crown contends Mr. Schneider vio- lently shook %achary while M-�. Underwood was out of the h ni�c. Through hip lxvyer. Alan Risen, Mr. Schneider has accused the mother of inflicting her son's injuries, alleg- ing she allowed Mr. Schneider to take "the fall when he revealed to police he accidentally fell on Zachary" Court has heard Zachary suffered from shaken baby syndrome with impact and that an autopsy revealed 30 bruises to his head and numerous others on his body. Mr. Schneider told police he picked up Zachary after he started crying and was carry- ing the child in his arms when he tripped on a toy and fell on top of the boy. In the interview played in court, Det. Kluem described irrefutable medical evidence Zachary's injuries were caused by violent shaking and told Mr. Schneider his story "doesn't work as much as I want to believe You. "I wish this was an accident... (But) I have to work for the person who can't speak and that's Zachary... He can't tell me what hap- pened, he's silent now... I have to speak for Zachary Underwood, I have to know the truth Craig;" said the detective. Mr. Schneider maintained his innocence throughout and said he wished he could pro- %ide an am v er to explain Za:harv'ti injunc,, "I know Dawn needs the truth... This poor boy died, I'm worried about his mother. The trial continues before Mr. Justice Alf Stong.

Modern medicine has come a long way since the times of its founding fa- ther Hippocrates. Technology contin- ues to develop at an astounding pace, and what once seemed impossible is now within reason. But with every new cure that is found for disease, every new drug that is developed, there is also the reality of harsh side effects. For some, the side effects caused by medication are almost as harmful as the disease from which they suffer. For these reasons, people have begun to look to alternative forms of medicine, such as herbal remedies or therapeutic massage. Massage therapy has been around for thousands of years, but only re- cently has it began to become recog- nized as an acceptable form of med- ical treatment. Ivana Chuvalo, a massage therapist at the Whitby Massage Therapy Clin- ic, says the popularity of massage therapy is rapidly increasing. "Around I I years ago, the owner of the clinic was only one of two or three clinics here in Whitby, now there are 30 to 40 of them;" said Ms. Chuvalo. Massage therapy can benefit just about anyone, she says. Male or fe- male, young or old, everyone has problems that can be helped with a therapeutic massage. Mari Anne DelVccchio, a therapist from Hands On Health Care in Whit- by, agrees that massage therapy is on the rise. "Especially with people in their 30s and up;" she said. "They realize the preventive benefits of massage therapy. They are looking to prevent things that may happen to them as they start to get older." Of all of the problems that mas- sage therapists face, strained muscles and headaches are the most common complaints. "Stress and headaches are definite- ly the major source of people coming in;" notes Ms. Chuvalo. "(They are) people who sit at a desk all day and stare at a computer, people with im- proper ergonomics." According to Dave Miller, a thera- pist from the Westney Heights Chiropractic Centre, massage therapy can treat more than just aggravated muscles and nerves. "Massage therapy can treat anything from headaches to arthritis to sports injuries. It can also help to rejuvenate tissue in broken bones and speed up the healing process;" explains Mr. Miller. Headaches can be caused by tight muscles. Often muscles refer pain to other parts of the body. Massaging the muscles helps to get them back to their normal function, he notes. Mr. Miller uses the analogy of a rope to help explain massage therapy. If you think of your muscle as a rope, imagine you tie a knot in it. Now it isn't as long as it used to be, and the muscles can't fully extend. This is when the body feels pain. Massage therapy helps to loosen these knots, and help the muscle return to its original form. Tracy Christodoulou has been receiving massage therapy for seven years. "it started out when my hus- band gave me a certificate as a Valentine's Day gift;' said Mrs. NIAG WYEKS PUB Christodoulou. When she ar- rived, she filled out a form indi- cating what symptoms she suf- fered from, and her therapist told her that she could treat her for al- most all of her problems. "Since I have been seeing her for so long, she knows what I need, my problem areas, more than another therapist would. I have been to others and they just kind of give a general massage;" she says. As the therapy has helped her tremendously, Ms. Christodoulou has recommended it to the rest of her family. Her daughter Jennifer has been going for almost a year. "I first started going for my jaw because it would lock all the time;" says Jennifer. "I also had problems with my lower back and legs and calf muscles from dancing. My boyfriend tries to give me massages all the time, but they're just not the same" To become a practising mas- sage therapist, you must attend a private or community course. Up until 1995, only private schools offered massage therapy classes, but with growing demand, cours- es have popped up in community colleges across the country.

During the Millennium Showcase trade show for �',omc-based and small busi- nesses. Brian McAuley of IBM spoke about the impor- tancc of' e-commerce to all firms today. "It's not just about buy- ing socksover the Internet: it's about changing the way that you do business today;" Mr. McAuley told entrepre- neurs. Business owners must be mindful of the impact c - commerce can have on their company. he said. For in- stance, a small home-based business with a Web site can become a global competitor open around the clock. Mr. McAuley reported some businesses waste time on "flaming logos" and "neat gadgets" on their Web sites, when that's not really %,, hat customers want. Cus- tumers tend to like Web sites that are updated frequently. quick to download, have quality content and are easy to use to find what they want. He also stressed that businesses making their start on the Internet should devel- op a certain niche and work on what they are best at in- stead of producing a confus- ing Web site. -Your Internet strategy and your business strategy have to be one" So, devel- oping a uniform strategy is important for businesses to get ahead by focusing their attention on specific goals. He reminded the entre- preneurs that if their Web site is not serving the cus- tomers' needs the "competi- tion is only a click away." In addition to Mr. McAuley's keynote address, the weekend -long event at the Metro East Trade Centre in Pickering featured semi- nars and a chance for small businesses to showcase their goods and services. The event was hosted by the Durham Homepreneur Group. Ajax Mayor Steve Parish noted people who run firms out of their own homes are becoming an ever-increasing component of the business world. "We feel home-based businesses are now a perma- nent part of our economy" Mayor Parish pointed out the next meeting of the Ajax Business Network on June 13 will focus on home-based entrepreneurs.

My book would be only one page long, urging you to de- crease your calories by 40 per cent. And who's going to buy a one page book even for an extra 25 years'? Back to the drawing board. DD❑ You can write to Dr. Gif- ford -Jones c% King's Health Centre; 250 Uni- versiry Ave.. Toronto M5H 3E5 Would you like another 25 years added to your life in this next millennium'? You can achieve this goal without worrying about hw much fat, carbohy- drate or protein you eat. Not many people would turn down that offer. But why can't I write a book about it and become rich? It sounds like I'm sell- ing phoney stock certifi- cates about a non-existent gold mine in Indonesia. Or convincing you to purchase a crocodile -infested swamp for a retirement home in Florida. But what I'm about to suggest is quite le- gitimate. For years researchers have studied what happens to the lifespan of rats and mice when fed certain diets. For instance, in 1983 U.S. scientists discovered rats fed on a low caloric diet lived longer. In fact. sone of these rats lived twice as long. Recent experiments have confirmed these earli- er studies. Rats and mice were given a normal diet. They were then compared to another group of rats and mice who were fed a vari- ety of caloric diets. Re- searchers discovered when they reduced the calories by 40 per cent these ro- dents lived one-third longer. This doesn't mean ro- dents were fed a malnutri- tion diet. Rather, they were given all the minerals and vitamins needed for good health. But one fact of the ex- periment caught my eye, Tfie point that longevity of the rodents didn't depend on how much fat, protein or carbohydrate they con- sumed! It was pure and simple caloric reduction. I realize humans are a long way removed from rats. But this experiment does make you question all the hype we read about cholesterol and excessive fat consumption. Rats only live about two years. So if a 40 per cent de- crease in calories works the same way for humans, it would appear to add anoth- er 25 years of life to each one of us. But would it? Since we're more closely related to monkeys than rats these animals are currently un- dergoing the same caloric experiment. But since monkeys live up to 40 years that's a long time to wait for the results. Luckily, there's an interest- ing way to get around this time factor. Dr. Richard Weindruch at the University of Wis- consin is an eminent au- thority on animal aging. He's developed a new tool to gauge the aging process. It's called the 'Affymetrix Chip' and it measures aging at the cellular level. It's able to do this by deter- mining how genes in the cell respond to the aging process. It's been suspected for several years chemicals known as free radicals are related to aging and cancer. Free radicals are the waste products of metabolism. They cause butter to be- come rancid, steel to rust and humans to age. The theory is to get rid „ The Doctor Game j W. Gifford -Jones j .tiLD. 1 of as many free radicals as possible. That's why many of us take vitamins E and C which fight the accumula- tion of these oxygen -de- rived chemicals. The Affymetrix chip has helped to support the aging concept about free radicals. It showed cells of old mice switch on the gene that fights free radical destruc- tion. But in caloric -restrict- ed old rats this injury -con- trol gene wasn't switched on. This means when we consume fewer calories the body also receives less en- ergy. And with less energy - es106511000 IN . owboo u+ ,N r'iiiwR+r' there's less waste products and fewer harmful free rad- icals that trigger aging. Putting it another way, if you throw less coal on the fire there's less ash to cart away. Dr. Weindruch hopes a cellular chip for monkeys will provide the aging an- swer in less than 40 years. In the meantime we should all follow Dr. Wein- druch's example. He says, "The chip ex- periment has changed my behaviour. I'm eating less food. This doesn't mean you have to eliminate 40 per cent of calories from your diet to live longer. That would be a hard sell. But Dr. Weindruch found mice lived longer even when the caloric content was cut to 10 per cent. But the effect on longevity was not as pronounced.
