However, when Pickering councillors discussed the priori- ties recently they expressed some concern as to how much of the work would actually get done. Ward 1 local Councillor Dave Ryan noted the Altona Road widening has been on the books for nine years. "Are we in fact going to see this come to fruition?" he asked. Mayor Wayne Arthurs pointed 0 rwr em aew�w 239peum Sblion Sheat 86-24 N-5; out Pickering's list for 2000 is nearly identical to the one it sub- mitted for 1999, and added he hopes the Town's desires will be better reflected in Durham Re- gion's roads budget this coming year. The mayor added he is "ex- tremely confident" the widening of Brock Road will proceed in 2000 because of the impending extension of Hwy. 407 to Brock Road in Brougham. "The same sense of urgency. in my view. needs to be expressed on the number -two and three pri- orities:' Mayor Arthurs said.

Please don't feed the Canadageese. Pickering group fears spread of infection PICKERING —The French- man's Bay Watershed Rehabilita- tion Project (FBWRP) is urging area residents to resist the temp- tation to feed Canada geese here during the winter months and the rest of the year. Feeding the geese can lead to an infections disease called avian botulism, which the animals can pass on to other birds in the area, warns FBWRP. They develop the disease from the bread and other food humans give them. As well, by feeding the geese, residents encourage them to stay through the winter and not mi- grate to a more suitable climate. "We are really confusing them and it's sad when you have to res- cue the geese after their feet have become frozen in the bay, says Patricia Lowe, .project co-ordina- tor for the FBWRP. She points out the Canada geese live in local natural areas and feed in local parks as well as harvesting the leftovers in nearby farmers' fields. Their population in the Greater Toronto bioregion is ex- pected to double over the next five years to more than 500,000. Their noise and droppings are considered a nuisance by many, and they bring other problems as well, such as habitat competition with native wildlife, human health and water quality issues, See GOOSE page 4 A Better World of Communications!

Two impaired driving charges in six hours Twice in six hours, a 39 -year-old man was arrested by police in Oshawa and charged with impaired driving. Durham Regional Police said the man's first brush with officers was at 9:50 p.m. Tuesday when a van was ob- ,served being driven erratically on Sim- coe Street South. The van was stopped and the driver was charged with im- paired operation of a motor vehicle and driving over the legal level of al- eohol, said Detective Jim Griepsma. He said the Toronto man was sub- -sequently released with a court date and his driver's licence suspended for 90 days in accordance with legislation. At 3:50 a.m., Det. Griepsma said police were responding to a Glen Street townhouse complex after a woman reported being assaulted. When officers arrived at the complex they stopped a vehicle and the driver was taken into police custody without incident, said Det. Griepsma. Gordon Thomas Atkins is charged and was held in custody pending a bail hearing. NEW ADVERTISER. SUNDAY EDnWK Decwdw 26, IM PAGE 3 AIP Fire probe looks at all possible causes Careless smoking is one of the possibilities police are probing in last weekend's fire that claimed the lives of three girls in Oshawa. "That's one of the avenues that's being investigated;' said Detective Jim Griepsma, of Durham Regional Police. Although the exact cause has yet to be determined, inves- tigators have found the fire started in a sofa in the living room of the townhouse at 1 100 Oxford St. the morning of Dec. 18. They've also concluded the source of the fire "would have had to be associated with a human activity as an electrical origin for the fire has been ruled out" There have been allegations of careless smoking in the case, Det. Griepsma said. Stephanie Davenport, Il, her sister, Nicole, wen, both of Lindsay, died in the fire which destroyed their father's townhouse, where they were visiting. Sarah Dorrian, six, of Nonquon Road, succumbed to her injuries in hospital on Sun- day. She had been staying in the Davenport townhouse while visiting her mother, Kim, a next-door neighbour, who was babysitting at the time. Oshawa fire prevention offi- cer Jim Cook said investigators have to rule out all possibilities before determining the cause. He confirmed smoke detec- tors were found in the resi- dence but said there's no indi- cation yet if they were in work- ing condition. The investigation by the Fire Marshal's office, Oshawa Fire Services, Durham Region- al Police and the coroner's of- fice is continuing. Exhibits have been sent to the Centre of Forensic Sciences in Toronto for tests. Further information won't be released until the in- vestigation is complete, offi- cials said. Johnny Davenport, 10, the brother of Stephanie and Nicole, was injured when he jumped from a second -floor window to get help. He'd tried to wake the girls but was unable to. Ms. Dorrian was treated for smoke inhalation after fire- fighters pulled her from a base- ment window. The father, John Davenport, was treated for burns he suf- fered when he tried to get into the townhouse to rescue the children. He had left to take a friend to work and walk his dog before returning to find his home ablaze. Two firefighters were also injured in the fire and were treated and released from hos- pital. � PRESENTING � Our Annual e44M& fV 7Teu< Z"114 174" 2000 Ik>QA ♦ 1 N * 9 P PAGE 4 NEWS ADVERTISER, SUNDAY EDITION, December 26,1999 Goose program has achieved good results in Pickering GOOSE from page / air and traffic hazards and the finan- cial costs associated with goose man- agement.

He'll make his home in jail where he should have been put before now. The decision handed down Dec. 13 by the Ontario Court of Appeal to overturn an earlier sentence imposed on the convicted child sex abuser was a welcome one. Three judges of the high court found Justice Alf Stong, who imposed a community service/newspaper letter - writing sentence on Mr. Roy, "fell into error by failing to give adequate weight to the general deterrence and denunciation and by not assessing the sentence in the penitentiary range" In other words, the three judges felt Mr. Roy deserved to be in jail and have therefore sentenced him to two years imprisonment. Consider the evidence brought against this pedophile, who pleaded guilty in August 1998 to sexual assault and possession of child pornography: Mr. Roy was introduced to the victim, then seven, in 1993 by former chil- dren's aid society worker Gary Shar- rard, an Oshawa man convicted of sex- ually abusing the same boy and nine others. Mr. Roy developed a close relation- ship with the victim's family and took the boy on numerous outings during which he was shown adult and child pornography and was coerced to per- form sex acts. One time, court heard, Mr. Roy attempted intercourse with the child, but stopped when the boy cried in pain. The evidence is truly nauseating, heart -wrenching. How, one wonders, could this man have ever escaped a jail sentence`' It seems the Appeal Court judges had a hard time understanding Judge Stong's reasoning. "The crime involved all of the grossest forms of sexual abuse includ- ing some that are grotesquely novel. No one can know what impact this abuse will have on the life of the vic- tim, but experience tells us it will be significant... Who can doubt this will leave scars and have an impact upon him... for the rest of his life?" said Jus- tice James Carthy. In Justice Stong's own words at the time of Mr. Roy's original sentencing of Mr. Roy, "The exploitation of a young person in society is inexcus- able... Young people are untouchables and they are protected in every way they can be by this court" Where was the protection last May when Mr. Roy was sentenced'? No, they are only now protected from this sex abuser. Mr. Roy got off easy. It's his victim who has been given a life sentence. E-mail comments on this editorial to nnewsCdurham.net.

THE HOSPITAL ASSOCIATION FIELDS QUESTIONS FROM THE PRESS AFTER THE RELEASE OF THE REPORT CARD... LETTERS TO THE EDITOR School strikers looking out for themselves, not the children To the editor: On the morning of Dec. 2, the Association of Professional Stu- dent Services Personnel (APSSP) of the Durham Catholic District School Board set up a picket line in front of Mother Teresa Catholic School, effectively Hope for a better future It's bleak out there for children of poverty Those brave souls who venture out on Boxing Day to scoop up the best bargains of the year are amazing. To hit the crowded stores again so soon after weeks of the same, well, these courageous consumers have my re- spect. It's not just the stamina and excel- lent prices involved, a certain act of faith is shown by those who buy dis- counted Christmas paper and cards to use next year. It's kind of like planti- ng tulip bulbs in fall. By doing so, a certain hope for the future is demon- strated. One explanation of what Boxing Day means and how it began goes back to a Merry Old (if not Dicken- sian) England, when employees and servants were given 'gratuities' the day after Christmas. Apparently, empty boxes were taken to work Dec. 26 to be filled with coins, food or gifts 'by employers. Some of the recipients were considered poor — members of the largest class in a society driven by class distinction: the working poor. 1. 0 Jane McDonald More than 100 years later, 75 per cent of the children who live in pover- ty in Durham Region have parents working for the minimum wage. Those families must have watched Dec. 25 approach with a sense of dread. With so much abundance all around them, it must hurt not to be able to provide the kind of holiday their family deserves. Hardly any businesses, with the exception of banks and government - run offices, will close this Boxing Day. After all, retail has seen some bad times in recent years and entre- preneurs must 'run with the bulls' when they have the chance. GM em - ployees have money to spend this year from the 'signing' and Christmas bonuses their recently negotiated con- tract _ agreed to pay. And local mer- chants are willing and able to help them. Durham Region is open for busi- ness, but are our hearts and minds? In the new year, this newspaper will de- vote time and space to the disgraceful phenomenon of child poverty. The coverage won't just tug at your heart strings, it will look at what the future costs to society are when children grow up amid bounty, while subsist- ing in the shame of poverty. Child poverty, when you -think about it in all of its consequences, is bad for business. Child poverty in par- ticular demonstrates a deliberate break with the future.

This caused traffic congestion in front of the school, forcing buses and private vehicles to let the stu- dents off in the streets. Upon voicing my opinion that this action was not in the best in- terests of anyone concerned, one picket responded that is was not their intention to inconvenience parents or students. If creating a very dangerous situation for our children is not an inconvenience, what is'? The APSSP strike was not against a car manufacturer or a brewery. It involved school chil- dren. This group failed to realize there is a fundamental difference between strikes against the indus- trial sector and a job action that affects the children of our soci- ety. This is another example of ed- ucators claiming the use of these tactics is to better the system for the children. In fact, the APSSP members, who are placed in a po- sition of public trust, are interest- ed in gains for themselves, with- out regard for the safety and well-being of our children.

Victim of Jubilee `a reminder to look at the past and make a commitment to a fresh start' I hit-and-run at BY SUSAN O'NEILL Staff Writer Students at Catholic schools throughout the region are begin- ning a year-long religious cele- bration that officially started Christmas Eve. The Durham Catholic District School Board is celebrating Ju- bilee 2000 over the next 12 months with several activities for pupils and staff, reports Sharron McKeever, a consultant for reli- gious and family life education with the separate board. "It's a very special event for Christians:" she says, noting Catholic schools here are also celebrating the 2,000th anniver- sary of the birth of Christ. However, she notes the two events are not related. "The Jubilee is not really con- nected to this whole millennium year business:" Ms. McKeever says. Rather, a holy year or Jubilee occurs every 50 years. A holy year is a religious event that originated in biblical times and celebrations historically in- cluded the forgiveness of debts and the liberation of slaves. Today, a holy year is a time when members of the church are encouraged to engage in works of charity and to strengthen their faith. "It's a time to start fresh and have a new outlook on life:" says board chairman Fran Pereira. "It's a reminder to people to look at the past and make a commit- ment to a fresh start." Jubilee runs from Christmas Eve until Jan. 6, 2001, reports Ms. McKeever. The separate school board kicked off its activities earlier this month when banners bearing the Jubilee symbol were put up in all Catholic schools across JASON LIEBREGTS/ News Advertiser photo Students at Durham Region Catholic schools have already launched Jubilee 2000 celebrations. The Jubilee is a holy year marked by the Catholic church every 50 years. Here, students (from left) Samantha Walker, Karen Haves and Brandon Mastro- martino of St. Francis de Sales Catholic School in Ajax work on decorating their class door. Durham as part of students' ad- vent celebrations. Pupils have also been encour- aged to decorate their classroom doors with the symbols of the Ju- bilee, says Ms. McKeever, who notes many of the doors are being dedicated during prayer cere- monies and will be opened by students in the new year during another special ceremony. The importance of the holy door dates back to the 1400s. And, every 50 years on Christmas Eve the holy door in Saint Peter's Basilica is opened. At is only opened during a Ju- bilee year:' says Ms. McKeever, and the Pope is the first person to pass through the door. "It represents how Jesus walked through into the gates of Heaven," she adds. When the Poor is closed it is "symbolic of )ur hearts being closed to Christ...As the door opens on Christmas Eve, we pray that our hearts may also open to the mes- ,a,,c of Christ:' "The board has also formed a Jubilee committee that's prepar- nz a resource book of ideas for :hc Jubilee Faith Day celebra- ,ions in schools here. The committee is developing %:source packages for the prima - junior, intermediate and sec- ondary divisions, Ms. McKeever notes. "It's hoped that all schools will participate in planning and providing a Jubilee Faith Day which celebrates the themes of the Jubilee." Those celebrations will be held at schools between February and May, she says. The board is also planning a special teaching mass for all board employees and other events are still in the works. ..One of the greatest things for students is for them to realize this celebration is going on all around the world:' Trustee Pereira added_ "It's not just Catholics here in Durham or in Ontario... There's a feeling of the universality of the church, of how we're all linked." Pickering starts drive for new roads 'Slim pickings' for regional road work here in 1999 PICKERING from page 1 Rick Johnson, who chairs Durham's public works commit- tee, agreed it was "slim pickings" for Pickering regional roads in 1999. But he added that with Hwy. 407 coming, he expects $20 million to $22 million to be spent -on regional roads in Pickering over the next couple of years. Coun. Johnson also noted the $22 million per year Durham was spending on roads in the early '90s has gone down to about $8 million in recent years as a result of financial pressures on the Re- gion. "For $8 million you don't build a lot of roads," he said, adding the situation should im- prove now that budget surpluses are appearing in some Region de- partments. Pickering's list, in order of pri- ority, is as follows: • Brock Road —.widening from Dellbrook Avenue north and from Hwy. 401 to Kingston Road in preparation for Hwy. 407; • Finch Avenue — completion of a class environmental assessment and reconstruction to four lanes and urban standards; • Altona Road — completion of a class environmental assessment - and reconstruction to four lanes and urban standards from Kingston Road to Finch Avenue; • Brock Road — completion of a class environmental assessment and construction of a Brougham bypass; • Whites Road — reconstruction to four lanes and urban standards from Oklahoma Drive to Hwy. 401; • Whites Road — intersection widening and improvements at Oklahoma Drive/Granite Court; • Bayly Street — signalization at Squires Beach Road; • Finch Avenue — intersection improvements at Dixie Road; • Finch Avenue — signalization at Rosefield Road (50 per cent WAYNE ARTHURS 'The same sense of urgency needs to be expressed...' Town funding); • Altona Road — installation of automatic signals with warning gates at CP Rail level crossing north of Finch Avenue. RICK JOHNSON `For $8 million, you don't build a lot of mads.' .The priority list is to be for- warded to Durham Region for consideration in its current bud- get and multi-year capital fore- cast. `square one' BY STEPHEN .SHAW Staff Writer One month after Paul Fish was run down, dragged along a Cour- tice roadway and left for dead, the 47 -year-old man remains "a long way from coming home:' Passersby found Mr. Fish lying on Solina Road the night of Nov. 26, an apparent victim of a hit-and-run driver. He suffered a bruised brain, broken pelvis, nu- merous fractured facial bones and other injuries. After spending three weeks in the critical care unit at Sunny - brook Health Sciences Centre, Mr. Fish was transferred to a Durham Region hospital last Fri- day, bringing him closer to home for the Christmas season. "I'll be there for him, we'll spend it together. But he's still a long way from coming home:" his common-law wife Louise, who requested her last name not be published, said in an interview Tuesday. Mr. Fish will remain in a local hospital until a bed becomes available at a rehabilitation cen- tre, where he will begin the long process of rebuilding his shat- tered life. "The bones arc mending, the mind is going to take longer. They (doctors) told me it's going to take a long, long time. He has to start over again, the walking, the dressing. He has to start at square one.' said Louise. "He's anxious to get on with life." Mr. Fish has no recollection of l the last month, she said and suf- fers from vision and 'nearing im- pairment. "He doesn't remember much of anything from that evening. Sometimes he wonders about it all... He just can't believe some- one would leave a person on the road." Based on bruising to his back, it's believed he was struck from behind and dragged. He required plastic surgery to repair a badly -damaged ear, she said. Durham Regional Police be- licve Mr. Fish was struck by a mid- to full-size vehicle, but no eyewitnesses have come forward. Constable Brendan Kennaley said police received a couple of tips which "didn't pan out," and the investigation has reached a dead end. Mr. Fish worked as a subcon- tractor while running a hobby farm with his wife. He was found just north of Baseline Road, about 100 metres from his home. "It would be nice if the person who did this would clear their conscience and come forward. I try not to give a lot of thought to the person, to be honest my thoughts are with Paul. I just hope (the driver) doesn't do it again to someone else," said Louise. Anyone with information is asked to call police at 579-1520, ext. 5256, or Crime Stoppers at 436 -TIPS.

Police hit new lows in testing underwater search vehicle $50,000 machine considered for Durham force BY CINDY UPSHALL Staff Writer If two heads are better than one, then it follows a second set of eyes is just as benefi- cial. Especially if that set of eyes is under water. Durham Regional Police divers tested that theory earlier this month at Whitby's pier when they jumped in Lake Ontario with Sea - clops, an underwater remote operated vehicle (ROV). Produced by Whitby -based Sea Smart Technologies, which conducted the demon- stration for the department, the vehicle is an 80 -pound, three -foot -long, two -foot -high rec- tangular machine equipped with two 250W lights and an underwater video camera which displays images on a monitor for the operator. It is able to submerge to depths up to 1,000 feet. ' I'be most common use of the ROV is the pre -dive inspection to help the diver find what he's looking for and any hazards;' says Doug Carl, president of Sea Smart. The machine, which is controlled by an operator on land or in a boat and looks simi- lar to those used in the recovery efforts in the movie 'Titanic', can be equipped with similar technology so it can actually recover items, without a diver entering the water. Police Chief Kevin McAlpine was present at the demonstration and watched as one of the department's divers plunged into the chilly Lake Ontario water with -the high-tech search machine. Although the department has made no commitment to purchase the $50,000 ROV, he says it is interested in "anything that allows us to do our job in a safer manner." Referring to the rescue the department was involved in last year on Lake Scugog when a group of snowmobiles went through the ice, Chief McAlpine says if the department had this equipment, in the future "it may not be necessary to put any (divers) in" the icy water. He adds, "this would be an ideal technolo- gy for police forces to share," either GTA_ wideor between York and Durham depart- ments. Mr. Carl says his company has not sold this technology to any police forces. However the ROVs have been purchased by Ontario Hydro and Canada Customs for surveillance of Halifax Harbour. `BDX�NEs s��E \..n�fnY�RY f 001 i BOX SPRING : Wnw PuRcmal oM1or ooM qOF SET. o.► •IM.�r Mink monkeys around on TV and big screen Ajax actress plays bad girl and Typhoid Mary in latest roles BY AL RIVETT Staff Editor AJAX — Playing a "dou- ble-crossing criminal" in an hour-long television drama is the latest role for L.A.-based actress and former Ajax resi- dent Claudette Mink.

Justice Alf Stong of the Superior Court of Justice in Whitby had ordered the 40 -year-old cable technician to per- form 240 hours of community service and write three letters to newspapers as part of the conditional sentence. He pleaded guilty in August 1998 to sexuai assault and possession of child pornography. Court heard Mr. Roy was introduced to the victim, then seven, in 1993 by former children's aid society worker Gary Sharrard, an Oshawa man con- victed of sexually abusing the same boy and nine others. Mr. Roy developed a close relation- ship with the victim's family and took the boy on numerous outings during which he was shown adult and child pornography, and was coerced to per- form disgusting sex acts. One time, court heard, Mr. Roy at- tempted intercourse with the child, but stopped when the boy cried in pain. The attacks were videotaped on at least two occasions. The judge's sentence, which spared Mr. Roy from going to jail, sparked controversy in the community and was appealed by the Crown. In its decision handed down Dec. 13. Court of Appeal Justices James Carthy, Michael Moldaver and James MacPherson found Justice Stong should not have considered a condition- al sentence in the case because of the serious nature of the abuse by Mr. Roy. '.The crime involved all of the gross- est forms of sexual abuse including some that are grotesquely novel:' said Justice Carthy in writing the decision. "No one can know what impact this abuse will have on the life of the vic- tim, but experience tells us it will be significant... Who can doubt this will leave scars and have an impact upon him... for the rest of his life" The court's decision said Justice Stong gave thoughtful reasons for the sentence but concluded he "fell into error by failing to give adequate weight to the principles of general deterrence and denunciation, and by not assessing the sentence in the penitentiary range" Conditional sentences, where an of- fender serves the term in the communi- ty, can only be handed down when the term of incarceration is less than two years. "'there has been much debate in the jurisprudence as to conditional sentenc- ing for serious offences... There can be no debate that a crime calling for a pen- itentiary sentence does come within the conditional sentencing range. This is, in our view, such a case," the justices said. The court of appeal set aside Justice Stong's sentence and said the proper punishment should have been between three and four yeah imprisonment. The court considered the six months of conditional sentence Mr. Roy has al- ready served and imposed a two-year jail term, to be followed by two years probation. During the sentencing hearing, forensic psychiatrist Dr. Hy Bloom tes- tified Mr. Roy was not a pedophile but has a sexual preference for partners with "youthful physique" Dr: Bloom said in his opinion Mr. Roy was a low risk to reoffend and a safe candidate for treatment given his "genuine" expres- sion of remorse. Justice Stong compelled Mr. Roy to write a series of letters, no less than 200 words each, to the editors of a local newspaper, a Toronto newspaper and publications at York University and Ry- erson Polytechnic University. The court of appeal said Mr. Roy had completed the letters and most of the community service requirement.

The home -run king of the Japanese Pacific League of pro- fessional baseball in 1997 and 1998 missed the entire 1999 sea- son with the Nippon Ham Fight- ers after he tore the cartilage in his knee prior to the start of the season. "It occurred during spring training;" notes Wilson, 29. "1 played in a few spring training games and it was getting worse. I sat down for a couple of weeks to see if it would get better, but on opening day it wasn't right. I was hurting myself more and more. I didn't want to make it worse be- Fause it was bad as it was." Wilson went under the knife April 18 after his knee injury uas diagnosed as stemming from thinning cartilage. He underwent Ringette juniors get revenge PICKERING — The Pickering junior 'C' ringette team skated past a strong Markham squad recently to post a league win prior to the Christ- mas break. The Pickering juniors ended the calendar year with a mark of 6-1 in league play by avenging a previ- ous loss to Markham by an 8- 5 score. Team captain Ashley Nason and centre Lauren Brandon each notched a hat trick to pace the scoring attack. Lisa Muri- son contributed a goal and three as- sists to the win- ning cause. Julie .Ireland potted a goal and added an assist, Jovette Mc- Donald recorded three assists, Ash - lea Harder-Brad- ner had two helpers, Holly Sheldon, Ashley Nascimento and Aline Lapierre chipped in with one assist apiece. NIGEL WILSON Will return to Japan next month to begin spring training with Nippon Ham Fighters. a radical operation called micro fracture surgery u hcr, nal' holes are punched in the carti- lage, making it bleed. The proce- dure is designed to promote re- newed cartilage growth over time. Now, Wilson declares himself fully healed and says he can't wait to get back into action with the Fighters. He'll be at the Fighters train- ing camp in mid-January, two weeks earlier than players are supposed to report in early Febru- ary. "It feels good right now," Wil- son says. "I'm going (back to Japan) a couple of weeks early so I can really test it to see how it feels. I've been running on it every day and it feels fine." After a solid season with the Fighters in 1998, the injury was hard to take for the designated hitter who sometimes plays left field and first base with the Tokyo-based team. In 1998, Wilson hit 33 round - trippers to win the Pacific League's home run title. In addi- tion, he captured the league's RBI crown by knocking in 125 during the season. `(The knee) feels good right now. I'm going back (to Japan) a couple of weeks early so I can test it to see how it feels. I've been running on it every day and it feels fine' — NIGEL WILSON "I couldn't stand it, not play- ing;' says Wilson, entering his fourth season with Nippon this year. "It was really frustrating. I had (the home run crown) two years in a row, and to have won it again would have been nice, but stuff happens. I have to forget about the injury and start fresh next season:' During his convalescence, Wilson spent a great deal of time in Ajax, "shacking up" with his parents for an extended stay away from his home in Bermuda. On Oct. 22, his wife Natalie gave birth to the couple's second child, Morgan Elise Wilson, at the Ajax and Pickering Health Centre. His eldest daughter, La- Toya, 12, has been attending Trafalgar Castle School in Whit- by. The coming season represents Wilson's final year of a two-year contract with the Nippon Ham Fighters. Although he's happy playing baseball in Japan, he hasn't ruled out giving Major League Baseball one last shot, after spending parts of his career with the Toronto Blue Jays, Florida Marlins, Cincinnati Reds and Cleveland Indians organiza- tions. "It's really too early to de- cide:" says Wilson. "I would love to come back here one day, but it's a lot of fun in Janan."
