"Obviously, in any situation where we have several people who get out safely and one person who doesn't, we have to deter- mine why;' Det. Griepsma said late Thursday afternoon. "We can't go back in time and re -recre- ate a scene down the road if we have any concerns" A family of four from one apartment — a 40 -year-old man. a 32 -year-old woman, a nine-year- old girl and a four-year-old boy — escaped the building.

The environmental assessment (EA) has been required by the federal regulator as a condition for restart of the four Pickering 'A' reactors shut down for two years. Ontario Power Generation (OPG), which is supposed to conduct the EA according to the specifications out- lined in the scope. had expected to AECB are: • Durham Region -- asking for the area around the Pickering nu- clear plant to be selected as the site of a cancer surveillance study being undertaken by the AECB; and for OPG to adequately fund off-site nuclear emergency readi- ness: • the Town of Ajax — accepting the draft scope but asking for ad- ditional requirements such as an analysis of alternatives to the restart and probe of its effects on human health: • the federal Department of Fish- eries and Oceans — noting base- line environmental conditions should be more clearly defined for the EA: • Environment Canada — re- questing a longer time frame for the EA to include the cumulative effects of the nuclear plant be- yond its projected operation, and for the study to evaluate the sta- tion's impact on local air and water bodies; submit its draft assessment report to -- — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — — thc AECB by Jan. 24.

The current tar- get date for restart of the first Picker- ing 'A' reactor is mid -2(X)1. The delay in issuing the scope is welcomed by Pickering Ward i Re- gional Councillor Maurice Brenner. "It doesn't surprise me;" he says. " I probably would have been more con- cerned had it been ready on time" He suggests the postponements are an in- dication the AECB is taking the pub- lic's and others' comments on the EA seriously. Controversy has surrounded the issue of what will have to be included in the EA ever since the draft scope was released. Area community groups, Pickering council and a team of expert reviewers hired by Pickering to advise the City on the EA have all criticized the draft scope as inadequate. main- taining the requirements should bc- beefed up for a more thorough probe. In its written submission to the AECB, based on the review team re- port, Pickering recommended the EA be upgraded to a more comprehensive one permitted under federal legisla- tion, and that the time allowed for it be extended. A coalition of local resi- dents' and environmental groups made similar recommendations, and also asked the AECB not to allow OPG to conduct the review itself, but rather to have it done by independent consul- tants or AECB staff. Among those who have also pro- vided written submissions to the Pickering levee celebrates city status PICKERING — Residents are in- vited to attend a levee hosted by Picker- ing's mayor and councillors Sunday, Jan. 30 to celebrate the community's new city status. "lite former town became a city as of Jan. 1, 2000. The levee will run from 1 to 3 p.m. in the lobby of the Pickering Civic Com- plex, One 'lite Esplanade.

In- sult is added to that injury when our hard-earned tax money is stolen. And, that's exactly what happens when people cheat the welfare system financed by decent citizens to help indi- viduals and families truly in need. So we applaud the Ontario govern- ment's initiative announced Tuesday to further crack down on people who de- fraud the social assistance safety net. But, it's not a standing ovation. Starting April I, people convicted of defrauding the axial assistatice system will be permanently banned from re- ceiving benefits in the future. Welfare cheats ran little risk of being caught year,, ago. That began to change in 1995 when the Mike Harris govern- ment was elected on a platform partly based on cracking down on those who defrauded the axial assistance system. The Tories revealed recently in their second annual Welfare Fraud Control Report that investigators last year un- covered approximately $6O million in benefits that social assistance claimants weren't entitled to receive. That same rcpoxt further claimed taxpaying citi- zens will save an estimated $38 million as the government avoids doling out money to those who arc ineligible. But, those boasts must be tempered by the fact a very small number of On- tarians have been convicted of welfare: fraud the past few years. And, one must consider that Durham Region officials report their experience indicates very few people on social assistance here don't deserve it. Cities must be judged on their merits and, as Durham Region's Paul Cloutier points out, no one wants or expects the government to use the proverbial bulldozer to kill a fly. So, the Conservatives must be care- ful with their zero -tolerance policy against welfare cheats. They have to avoid painting all social assistance re- cipients with the: same broad brush. The Tories must ensure people who deserve welfare, those who truly need it, contin- ue to get social assistance.

Later this month, Erin Rynberk makes her first foray onto the national figure skating scene at the Canadian Special Olympics 2000 Winter Games in Ottawa. Rynberk, 13, a figure skater with the Rising Stars club for 'special' skaters, will carry the hopes of Ajax and Ontario into the Ottawa Civic Cen- tre where she'll compete in the level 4 solo freeskate and the level I dance events, starting Friday, Jan. 28. She'll be joined by Rising Stars' head coach Nancy Cranswick who was chosen to accompany Team Ontario to the national showcase. Fein will receive financial assis- tance from Ontario Power Generation, Pickering Nuclear, and the For the Love of a Child organization to subsi- dize her trip to Ottawa Ms. Cranswick says her protege, who's developmentally delayed, has improved every season since joining the Rising Stars several years ago. She reached her pinnacle this year when she advanced to level 5, the highest cat- egory of figure skating offered in the Special Olympics program. . The talented teenager's path to the Al Rivett Sports Editor nationals went straight through Hamil- ton where she wowed both her coach and the judges at the Ontario Special Olympics Regional Competition Jan. 8. Erin's fine performance brought tears of joy to the eyes of her coach after she won the gold medal in the ladies' level 5 event. She also earned silver in the ladies' level l solo dance. Ms. Cranswick recalls a particular jump, the lutz, was giving Erin diffi- culty in her training leading up to the regionals. She was unable to land the jump in the three weeks prior to the Hamilton competition. But, something magical happened at the regionals that left both skater and coach overcome with emotion. 'I told her 'Erin, just go for what feels comfortable"' shortly before she skated out on the ice to begin her pro - ,gram, says Ms. Cranswick. The pep talk proved to be just the tonic Erin needed. "She nailed the jump. I jumped so high that I thought I was going to end up on the ice," says her coach. ' "he jump was early in the pro- gram, so she was so confident and so high after that. She came bouncing off the ice," says Ms. Cranswick. "She's not one to show a lot of emotion, but she did the bunny hop off the ice. She knew in her heart that she had had a good program - 'lite first comment she made to me was 'Did I make you proud?' and I said 'Oh gosh, Erin, I'm not crying for nothing': Erin and her coach are hoping a good performance at the nationals will earn the youngster an opportunity to represent Canada at the World Special Olympics in Anchorage, Alaska in - February, 2001. '"Istat was our goal that we set last year" reports Ms. Cranswick. But, first, it's the Canadians... then maybe the world for this talented fig- ure skater.

All -day service east of Picker- ing and west of Oakville did not prove to be viable 10 years ago and will not prove viable at this time. We also have to consider that if all -day service is reinstated to Os- hawa it must also be reinstated to Burlington in the west. Halton and Peel Regions are a bigger market for GO Transit than Durham. So it is fine for Durham Region Chairman Roger Anderson to speak out loud and clear at the Greater Toronto Services Board for en- hanced services but his voice will have to be much louder than Re- gion Chairmen in Peel and Halton, who are his partners at the GTSB and the GO Transit board. Taking this into consideration, .the total costs for enhanced ser- vices will be much more than $1.3 million. Yes, as a resident of Ajax, I agree that full GO service would be nice to have but when you look at how well the existing off-peak train/bus service now operates, there is no practical way of justify- ing full service at this time.

Another man, identified as 25 - year -old Jason Fitzgerald by his father Ron at the scene, was taken to hospital and later released. Woman answered after friend called out her name, man reports Fire crews fought for hours to control the blaze, which spewed thick black smoke into the air throughout the morning. Two aer- ial truck crews battled the inferno from above the building, while firefighters manned several hoses on the ground. Eight Ajax Fire. and Emergency Services trucks and all available firefighters responded to a 5:48 a.m. call within minutes, Fire Pre- vention Officer Thom Evcred re- ported at the scene. They were as- sisted by a crew from Pickering as they battled a "stubborn" fire that was "already through the roof' upon their arrival. The blaze was "stubborn to put out due to false ceilings between floors;' said Mr. Evered. The fire had been brought under control by 2 p.m. but hadn't yet been extin- guished. At the scene of the blaze as firefighters fought to control it, Ron Fitzgerald wanted to know if his son's friend had been located. Mr. Fitzgerald said his son awoke to smoke and awakened the woman, but she didn't follow him outside. Mr. Fitzgerald reported his son returned twice and heard her answer as he called her name but "couldn't see his hand in front of him" and was driven back by smoke. The younger Mr. Fitzgerald was distraught and unable to talk to the News Advertiser yesterday. Sgt. Grimley described a man who stayed in Ms. Hannah's apartment overnight as "an ac- quaintance. He knew her in the past and met up with her (Wednes- day) night." The deceased ran Nail Plus Studios on the lower level of the structure. Her salon, another busi- ness and three apartments were destroyed in the fire. Damage is estimated at $400,000. Though Mr. Evcred didn't know at press time if any of the apartments in the building had smoke alarms, the tragedy rein- forces the need for working detec- tors in all homes, he noted. The cause of the fire remains under investigation by the Office of the Fire Marshal, the Ajax fire department and Durham police.

Students versed in French widen ' Job chances Officials say learning second language increases pupils' tolerance of other cultures Enrolling a child in French immersion not only means they'll learn a second language, they'll also gain a better understanding of a different culture, says a pub- lic school board official. Those are just two aspects of the French immersion program that parents will have an opportu- nity to hear more about during in- formation sessions being held at I 1 Durham District School Board elementary schools Wednesday, Jan. 26. "It's a chance for parents to see the school, to talk about the Grade 1 (French immersion) pro- gram and to ask about school boundaries and busing," says Elizabeth Kagazchi, the public board's program facilitator for French and international lan- guages. The public board has offered French immersion for approxi- mately 23 years, she reports. Ms. Kagazchi notes parents often choose the program for their child "just for the exposure to another language. "When students finish the pro- gram they will be bilingual" and that opens up several job oppor- tunities for pupils, she says. The program also helps stu- dents gain a greater "tolerance and understanding of another cul- ture," says Ms. Kagazchi. And, learning a second lan- guage can often mean a student's first -language skills "can become strengthened". Ms. Kagazchi also reports the majority of pupils who begin the program in Grade 1 continue with it through high school. "I wouldn't say it's more de- manding. ."There's a difference, they're learning another language so they're learning more" She explains that the main dif- ference between French immer- sion and core French, which is mandatory between Grades 4 through 8, is the number of hours of French instruction a student receives. "Core French is an excellent program. It's just that it's a lot less intense," she says. French immersion pupils re- ceive 3,800 hours of French in- struction by the time they gradu- ate from elementary school, whereas students in the core French program take approxi- mately 600 hours. At the secondary level, the French immersion program re- quires participation in 10 cours- es, one of which must be OAC lit- erature studies. Core French is only compulso- ry in Grade 9. For more information about the upcoming French immersion parent information nights in your community, contact your local el- ementary school.

Snitches rewarded for telling on litterbugs The City of Pickering is urging residents to report any incidents of illegal dumping or littering to the bylaw enforcement department. Anyone who supplies informa- tion leading to the conviction of a person for illegal dumping is eligi- ble for a $1,000 reward under a City bylaw. The bylaw was passed in response to the large amounts of money being spent by the munia- pality to pick up garbage dumped illegally at the sides of roads and on public property. At the end of December, a cheque for $1,000 was sent to a resident who witnessed and report- ed illegal dumping on Third Con- cession Road near the former Brock West landfill site. Charges were laid and the informant acted as a witness in court. The perpe- trator was found guilty and required to pay a hefty fine, according to a media release from the City. All residents with trash which can't be picked up through regular garbage collection are urged to take it to the Miller Waste depot at 1220 Squires Beach Rd., one block east of Brock Road south of Bayly Street. The bylaw enforcement de- partment may be contacted at 420- 4615. AR PAGE d NEWS ADVERTISER Fridty EDMM, ,Ie>Iuai> v 21, I=, MORE TIME FOR FAMILY ADVENTURE.

Welcome to aplace call BY DOUG ALEXANDER Special to the News Advertiser Humble green fields, rolling hills holding back the horizon, clumps of trees and a quiet desolation, punctuated only by the distant drone of the occasional car speeding along the weathered asphalt. The world's final battle- ground is surprisingly peace- ful. Yet as I walk through the valley in the shadow of death, I know every step I lake treads over millennia of spilled blood and crushed bones. In this Israeli valley stands one hill, a sentinel be- tween 'good and evil,' life and death. Welcome to Megiddo. Others know it as Ar- magcddon - the future battle- ground for Earth's greatest apocalyptic war. The place where, it states in the Bible, the armies of the world clash in one horrific melee that ends with the eternal destruc- tion of evil. It's tlx: end of the world as we know it, so to speak. But it's quiet here. Noth- ing betrays such a foreboding future or this area's gruesome past. Even approaching the entrance of these once forti- fied ruins - now an "intcrprc- tive centre" for tourists who venture from Jerusalem and Tel Aviv - all is quiet. A man who drives up in a car is my only interruption. He's lost. "Do you know where the military base is'!" he ques- tions. 1 point down the road where I've been, it's not far. The irony strikes me: through modern history, this place still remains a strategic point with military value. The name Armageddon is a cor- ruption of the Hebrew words Har Megiddo - literally meaning Mount Megiddo. But perhaps Armageddon is an appropriate name: Hid- den underneath this pastoral setting and otherwise incon- spicuous hump in the Jezrcel Valley lie untold deaths from 10,(Xx) years of epic battles. This hill was a battleground for thousands of years - from before 15(X) BC, when Egyptian Pharaoh Thutmoses III raided Canaan, until its re- capture by Israeli forces in 1948. Tcxlav, the only invading forces at Megiddo are tour groups and sch(x)I children, eager to learn what lays under the soil and rubble. Little re- mains to show us the true grandeur of this fortress - a pile of round stones, wom blocks, a secret underground passageway and scattered foundation stones are all that survives. But even that's a treasure for some. Archaeologists have un- covered 20 layers of settle- ments here, including ruins of fortifications, great temples, palaces and stables. Megiddo had been occupied continu- ously for thousands of years - from 35(X) BC to 5(X) BC - serving as crossroads to an ancient trade route that linked Egypt with Syria and Mesopotamia. Megiddo's glory was recorded in six letters sent by its king to Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten in the 14th centu- ry BC, indicating this settle- ment was one of the mightiest city-states in Canaan. Today, visitors to Megid- do's ruins can still sec re- mains of a 4,000 -year-old Canaanite temple, walled foundations of a great palace from King Solomon's time and the remains of a public grain silo. There's also a hid- den water system, dating back 3,0(X) years, that visitors can explore. A set of stairs snakes down a shaft that plunges 40 metres until it meets a secret passageway. This passage. hewn through 70 metres of rock, leads to a hidden spring outside Megid- do - the secret route allowed inhabitants to draw water un- noticed under times of siege. Megiddo's location has al- ways been strategic: the hill allowed control of a choke - point along the ancient roads that emerge from the narrow Aruna pass into the surround- ing fertile Jezrcel Valley. Such importance led to con- quests by neightxxrring ene- mies: Egyptians, Caananites and Assyrians. Megiddo became an Egyptian o utp(nt for Canaan in the second millennium. When Canaan's city-states re- volted against the pharaohs, Megiddo became the battle- ground. Inscriptions in Egypt's Temple of Amun at Karnak highlight the risky strategy of Thutm(res IIh who drove his armies through a narrow pass and laid siege to Megiddo for seven months before victory came. Archaeology shows that Megiddo was destroyed in 1130 BC, but it would soon rise again to splendour under the biblical King Solomon. Solomon made his mark on Megiddo around 1000 BC, when he fortified this ancient settlement and made it into an administrative centre for his northern province and one of his "chariot cities." .N'Icey sgr.dr flli�ln•: ItIN�i, .ar•. ssrs000 ALL LOCATIONS ARE FRI an MIS SUPPLIES &I Itelef-A• ?.000 Located in Wal-Mart Ajax OPEN Mon. - Fri. 9 A.M. - 9 P.M.

Egyptian Pharaoh Shishak later took Megiddo, as did Assyrian King Tiglath- Pileser, who annexed the re- gion and made this hill his capital in the mid -8th century. Megiddo also marks the spot where King Josiah of Judah fell in battle as the Assyrian empire began to crumble. Not all Megiddo's history is so ancient. Near the end of the First World War. British Gen. Edmund Allenby and his infantry forces dislodged from Megiddo 100 Turkish fighters who were dclending the last vestiges of the Ot- toman Empire. And in 1948, Israelis over- came invading Arab forces at the nearby Mishmar Hacmek during the War of Indcpcn- dcnce. Biblical prophecies pre- dict the bloodshed will con- tinue. Revelation says: "And He gathered them together into a place called in the He- brew tongue Armageddon:' Israel itself seems to have taken a tongue-in-cheek view on such prophcsies, perhaps even tempting fate: On the dawn of the new millennium, dwv will hold a spectacular light and sound show, com- plete with lases, to exploit Megiddo's dark side. But here's a sobering thought: Megiddo stands as a sentinel in the Jezrcel Valley, a deep geographic scar cuts into Lebanon and Israel. The valley can make tracking low-flying aircraft — or missiles — difficult as they Fly beneath radar. Should any military attack conte into Israel from the north, it'll likely be down this valley. And sooner or later they'll hit Megiddo - Israel's last stand. El :1 :3 Doug Alexander is a Cana- dian journalist and travel writer currently bused in SALE SPECIAL.

In the past, decorating with steel typically meant an industrial look ... but not any more. Steel has become a hot material for decor - in the kitchen, in the dining room, in the living room, and even in the bedroom - and not in the traditional ways. The new look for steel is sleek and fun. No matter how big or small, a steel accent can make a room brilliant and exciting! For those large-scale projects, lightweight sheets of steel are available that can be cut to fit any space in the home. These sheets can be used for a variety of design ideas, including: • Sink hack splash areas • Replacement tops on tables for dining, potting, and other work areas • Tops for end tables, coffee tables and children's furniture • Magnetic note centres • Children's room magnetic boards (No more tape or holes in the wall!) • Headboards • High impact areas such as door panels and wall areas • Refacing kitchen cabinets and vent hoods • Custom designed radiator enclosures • Steel pegboard for utensils • Hanging panels on steel hooks. for room dividers • Hinging steel sheets together or screens • Placing on walls for low reflection decorative element • Fireplace surrounds and hearth areas For a more subtle touch of steel, try: • Replacing existing door and cabinet hardware with steel handles for a new, decorative look. • Incorporating steel accents into stairways - handrail%. spindles and posts. • Designing your own pot, wine, and utensil racks using steel. There is also a wide variety of steel decor items available to consumers to help add fun accents to any room. These include: • towel bars and other bathroom accessories and fixtures • waste and trash containers (easy to clean and impact resistant) • mirrors • uses • candle holders • hcx)kcnds • curtain rods • shelves • tables • magazine racks • lamps • bed frames • picture frames • clucks For more information about how steel shapes our everyday lives, visit. www.thenewsteel.org - News Canada , [NEWS ADVERTISER FRIDAY EDITION, Jwwwy. 21, 2000 PAGE 19 AM Your Window: Decorating Centm* _ _ BLINDS & DRAPERY ER SAIE ofHunterftoas 'rices L (»,%-er Than "t'he ZeniVerattire!! wt►voow' FASr+lO^ ` • Vertical Blinds -"f Slll1011t LER CERTIFIED • Roller Shades DEAand Ali Our ScA lave Lumlrn `Li htlines Been Trained& g Certified By Hunter Venetians -,I tea!

Gordon says, "basically, the amount of years I've been in this business has forced me to develop hundreds of different techniques to successfully solve every situation I've encountered". He also says that "having an extensive background in specialty products for concrete, I know which products to use and which ones really work, that's why 1 can offer a 10 year frill guarantee on all the work I do". Gordon prides his company on fast, neat and efficient service. He also prides himself on his troubleshooting ability. " I like to professionally solve problems at the least most reasonable cost to the customer. Sometimes that may involve excavating the entire perimeter of the house: and replacing the weeping tiles but that is because it is absolutely necessary. What I won't do is quote on an expensive excavation type repair when I know a simple little interior injection will solve the problem. Give me a solid concrete foundation and 90% of the time I can inject the problem with polyurethane by standing on the inside and pumping right through the wall. Block foundations should be repaired from the outside but I try to isolate = the problem within 10-15 ft. to minimize the excavation#_ necessary." Gordon says "home owners should invest in their foundations in much the same way they invest in their roofs. Water corrodes and very quickly. The same way a leak in your roof starts corroding the wooden rafters, a leak through your foundation starts to undermine the very integrity of your home. People tend to live with the praoblem until it escalates into a bigger one. Catch it early enough and possibly save yourself a fortune" Gordon goes on to say that "no job is too big or too small and I can promise you a fair and objective evaluation of the problem" For a free professional evaluation call Gordon at 905-686- 6880.

Thanks to technology adapted from the Space program, faucets with special finishes can be cleaned and treated like chrome. These new finishes has been created through a special process involving the bonding of a layer of non -corrosive metal to the faucet, as opposed to coating it with a sprayed -on finish. This process is similar to the technology used by NASA to protect the space shuttle as it re-enters the earth's atmosphere. The result is a finish that does not corrode, tarnish or discolour - making it virtually maintenance -free. One of the newest tarnish resi.tant finishes is nickel. A vert popular finish available in either a brushed or matte look• nickel reflects the tones and colours of a bathroom's decor, creating a unique and complementary appeal.
