HomeMy WebLinkAboutNA2005_07_22Public can have its say on City’s vision By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING — Pickering wants to know what the public thinks of a revised plan for the develop- ment of Seaton. The City is holding a public meeting Tuesday, July 26 to pres- ent its official plan draft amend- ment 14, its modified Seaton plan. Council passed OPA 13 in De- cember dealing with both the Duffins Rouge Agricultural Pre- serve (Cherrywood) and Seaton. Through consultation with the Province (which has prepared its own plan for central Pickering) and the Toronto and Region Con- servation authority, staff made some changes to the City’s plan. Tom Melymuk, division head of corporate projects and policy, said the primary changes are that there is more development around Whitevale and the configuration of the natural heritage system. “Another key change would have been Whites Road connect- ing directly (with Seaton),” he said. Staff hasn’t taken a position on the changes yet and is holding the meeting to get public com- ment before submitting a report for council’s review, Mr. Melymuk said. He explained Pickering is hold- ing the meeting in the middle of the summer so it can get a report to council and get council’s posi- tion in time to comment on the Province’s plan. (The Province is accepting comments until Sept. 12). “Had they not (released their plan in the summer), we would of had more time,” he said. Another change in the City’s plan is the upper range for low- density residential was increased and now the population target is 43,000 instead of 39,000. The meeting begins at 7 p.m. in council chambers. Staff is to make a presentation and then people are invited to speak. “If you have questions they can be answered,” Mr. Melymuk said. Staff will summarize comments and submit a report to council. It will consider the amendment at a special meeting Tuesday, Sept. 6.

By Mike Ruta Staff Writer DURHAM — Durham Access to Care is receiving $3.4 million to help service clients who would otherwise require a trip to the hospital. George Smitherman, Ontario’s health and long-term care min- ister, announced $113 million in new funding Tuesday, including an $88 million boost to home- care services. Janet Harris, Durham Ac- cess to Care’s executive director, noted the organization’s existing budget is $45 million. “This is a very welcome addi- tion to help us serve the acute population,” she said. “We’re al- ready taking lots of referrals from the local hospitals, Lakeridge and Rouge Valley and beyond. This money is meant to help get people out of hospitals quickly... or keep them out of hospital.” The non-profit DATC provides in-home health services after a patient has been released from the hospital and also assists those who have long-term illnesses, such as multiple sclerosis, or frail- ty. The services include personal care, nursing, physiotherapy and speech therapy. As the region’s Community Care Access Centre (CCAC), DATC also provides in- formation and referrals to Dur- ham residents looking for help with health or social problems. It serves 7,000 Durham residents each day, but Ms. Harris notes the average person is unaware of such services until they are needed. “People think of hospitals as being the focus of health care,” she said. “But if you have some- body in your family who’s re- cently been diagnosed with long- term needs... you probably will bump into home-care services.” Ms. Harris said it was a bit early to say exactly how the money would be used, but she speculated that the Alternative Care Setting program might be expanded. Started in January and open seven days a week, it serves ambulatory patients who require, for example, a dressing change, at DATC’s office in Whit- by. Ms. Harris said she hoped the general public would learn more about DATC by accessing its number, 905-430-3308, or by visiting www.datc.org. DATC is part of the Province’s Central East Health Integration Network (CEHIN), which re- ceived a total of $10.4 million for home-care services. Of the $25 million the Province announced for community sup- port services and assisted living services in supportive housing, the CEHIN is in line for $2.5 mil- lion.

Police on June 29 were called to the Bay Ridges postal outlet on Bayly Street in Pickering after a woman tried to buy two postal money or- ders for $990 each with a counterfeit debit card. Police say the woman was arrested and further investiga- tion showed a woman had been at the same postal outlet two days ear- lier, again using a counterfeit card to purchase two money orders for $990 each. A suspect also tried to buy money orders from three postal outlets in Pickering and Ajax on June 27. Following the arrest, police recov- ered a large quantity of cash and a hand-held card reader used to store credit card information. The analysis of the card reader found that it contained 50 credit card numbers. The total loss in the investigation is estimated at $61,000. Ve ntzislava Mladenovitch, 31, of Cosburn Avenue is charged with four counts of fraud under $5,000, two counts of attempted fraud under $5,000, two counts of unauthorized possession of credit card data, one count each of possession of instru- ments of forgery and possession of property obtained by crime, and 52 counts of unauthorized use-posses- sion of credit card data. She appeared for a bail hearing in Oshawa July 21.

The new Candu Services Office means the AECL improves its ability to deliver existing and future service contracts to the Pickering and Dar- lington nuclear stations, say officials. Ontario Power Generation, which op- erates the Pickering and Darlington plants, is the AECL’s biggest Candu customer. The new office will initially have 30 engineering and technical staff and the number of employees is expected to increase in the coming year. “Opening this facility today under- scores AECL’s commitment to ensur- ing Ontario’s Candu fleet continues to play a vital role in providing Ontar- io with the electricity it needs, while contributing to cleaner air for us all to breathe,” says Robert Van Adel, AECL president and chief executive, in a press release. At omic energy group moves into Pickering To ronto woman charged with credit card fraud Ron Pietroniro/ News Advertiser photo At omic Energy of Canada Limited’s president and chief executive officer Robert Van Adel was on hand this week for the opening of a new office in Pickering. Metroland Durham By Jennifer Stone Staff Writer DURHAM — Striking Hydro One energy professionals are appealing an injunction which has stopped them from picketing Ontario Power Generation facilities such as Picker- ing and Darlington. Earlier in July, a judge granted the injunction, indicating they could not impede OPG workers trying to get in to work at OPG facilities, which have some Hydro One equipment on site. The ruling came after a June 23 incident in which traffic was snarled on surrounding roads, and workers were brought in via helicopter and other means, due to pickets outside OPG’s Darlington Nuclear Plant. Similar pickets have occurred at other OPG sites, prompting OPG to have some essential staffers sleep overnight on a number of occasions, at triple pay, to ensure plants were able to continue producing electrici- ty. OPG has filed a $50-million state- ment of claim against the union, to recoup money for items like lost time, overtime, special transporta- tion and electricity output lost. But the Society of Energy Profes- sionals, about 1,000 of whom have been on strike since early June, say they believe the judge erred in granting the injunction. “We believe Mr. Justice Camp- bell overstepped his authority,” said Keith Rattai, Hydro One Local Vice President of the Society of Energy Professionals. “If his ruling stands, it effectively outlaws our constitu- tional right to picket.” OPG will “defend its position,” said spokeswoman Jacquie Mc- Innes. “We want to ensure we can safely and efficiently operate our plants.” The union has asked for an expe- dited hearing in early August, said Michelle Duncan, a spokeswoman for the group. She said it’s important for the union’s members to get back to work. “There are warnings of possible power shortages, and the experts, the doctors of the system, are on the street instead of working,” said Ms. Duncan. durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JULY 22, 2005 PAGE 5 P visit and locate your nearest dealer at: www.hondaontario.com PROGRAM GRADUATE ① Lease and finance offers are from Honda Canada Finance Inc.,on approved credit.††Based on a 2005 Civic DX Sedan,model ES1515PX (Civic DX Coupe,model EM2115P) (#Civic SE Sedan,model ES1535PX) (##Civic SE Coupe, model EM2125PX) (†Accord DX Sedan,model CM5615E).Lease for 60 months (†48 months) at ††/$198.00 (#/##$217.99) (†$267.98) per month plus applicable taxes with 120,000 km (†96,000 km) allowance (12¢/km exceeding allowance). ††//#/##$0 down payment (†$4,754.00 down payment) or equivalent trade acceptable to dealer ($0 down on approved credit from Honda Canada Finance Inc.).

I n the world of 905 development, the plans for Seaton look too good to be true. With a grid transportation network to support public transit, mixed-use resi- dential to maximize land use and eco- friendly initiatives to protect the envi- ronment, the plans look like a suburban utopia. The Province released its plan for central Pickering, which includes both Seaton and the Duffins Rouge Agricul- tural Preserve, last week. It includes urban design guidelines to create a sus- tainable community. Parallel to the Province, Pickering’s plan for Seaton is part of its growth management study. It’s currently work- ing on a detailed neighbourhood plan as part of Phase 3 of its vision of the area’s development. To help it along, the City has received grants for sustainable community planning. Officials at both levels have said Seaton is an opportunity to build a model community. Currently it is a beautiful area of rolling hills, woodlots and cold water streams. As well as its natural signifi- cance, it also holds historical and cul- tural significance. In an ideal world the land would remain untouched and beautiful with those who have called it home for 10, 20, 40 years being able to remain. That thinking is naive. The Province announced last year how much of the provincially-owned land is being given to developers as part of a swap for environmentally sensi- tive land on the Oak Ridges Moraine in Richmond Hill. Those developers are talking about getting building permits for the land by next fall. Seaton is going to be developed. What people must fight for now is to ensure that what is built is sustainable and an example of good planning. Planners appear to be thinking out- side the box, but in order for their ideas to become reality, citizens must demand nothing less and the development can’t be rushed. The neighbourhoods must be dense enough to support public transit. There needs to be foot and bike paths to dis- courage dependence on cars. Public parks and community gardens are need- ed so people who live in townhouses and apartments can enjoy nature. There must also be jobs so people can live, work and play in the same community. It would be a disgrace for that land to have sat in limbo for more than 30 years only to end up being developed with cookie cutter subdivisions. We don’t need more cul-de-sacs lined with iden- tical two-storey detached homes where the Jones’ have to hop in the SUV to pick up a loaf of bread because their neigh- bourhood isn’t pedestrian-friendly.

Seaton could be model community EDITORIALS & OPINIONS infodurhamregion.com Danielle Milley staff writer LETTER TO THE EDITOR Graphic images not making their point Protesters turning public against them R ecently Ajax and Pickering received an encore presenta- tion of a controversial protest by pro-life advocates. The protesters were here in Durham communities, including Ajax and Pickering, to shock residents with images meant to shed light on the ugliness of abortion. The images included slogans, facts, images of happy children and then, to the dismay of many, images of fetuses that ‘had been aborted’. The group is called ‘Show the Truth’ and members were here last year as well with the same message. A spokeswoman at last year’s demonstration said they didn’t like the images they were displaying either, but would not stop making their point until the “baby killing” is stopped. This year the demonstrations were much shorter, moving quickly from location to location. Their methods certainly received a reaction from Ajax and Pickering residents and commuters through the area. Durham Regional Police received several complaints the first time they visited the area, as did the News Advertiser, with each caller angry at the images they were subjected to. Many complaints centred on the fact children could see the “horrible” images. Police say they received many complaints again this year, but that the protesters are within their rights. They warn them to be careful not to impede traffic, but have no legal reason to stop the demonstrations. Although the protests are legal, the group is only hurting its cause in the long run. Parts of their demonstration are perfectly acceptable, agree or disagree with their message. But the thing everyone who sees these protests will remember from the encounter is the terrible images of ‘aborted fetuses’. And the general affect of that is to turn people against the protest. A peaceful demonstration is welcome in this country and challenging people’s views on the issues is fine. But subjecting them to offensive images is only increasing the potential for violence against the demonstrators. A picture of a happy infant has impact as well, especially with slogans endorsing adoption, an option Show the Truth includes in its placards. They would do well in the future, however, to stop there and discontinue the shock tactics. It’s only hurting its cause and leaving others feeling violated. Ajax-Pickering bus service found lacking To the editor: Sadly, I have had two unsatisfactory experiences on the Ajax-Pickering Transit System in the last week. In the first, I witnessed several drivers who did not wait for two minutes for passengers disembarking from a train from To ronto to reach the buses. In the second, I was rudely spo- ken to by a driver when I questioned why she had driven by me waiting at a bus stop. While I understand the need to keep a schedule, I feel the drivers have forgotten the role of a bus driver is not to drive their bus from stop to stop, but to drive their passengers from stop to stop. Does having a heat wave mean that they can abandon all common courtesy and treat riders with rude- ness, and a lack of compassion? This kind of service will end any hope we have of improv- ing our air quality and easing congestion on the highways. The public must be encouraged to take public transit, but they will not tolerate poor, discourteous service in doing so.

More than 70 local businesses and politicians came to the University of Ontario Institute of Technology re- cently to hear Hao Guangfeng, deputy consul general of China, speak about importing and exporting between the two countries. “Facts have shown that China can- not grow in isolation,” Mr. Guangfeng said. “A stable and open and prosper- ous China... will surely contribute to- wards peace and stability.” China is Ontario’s third largest ex- porter, after the U.S. and the U.K. and second largest importer, after the U.S. In 2004, Ontario exported $1.3 billion to China, up from $858 million in 2000. The province imported $12 billion in 2004, compared to $5.5 billion in 2000. Canada has had a special place in China’s heart since 1970, when it estab- lished market ties, three years before China entered the United Nations and before the U.S. officially recognized the country. “China really likes Canada and Ca- nadian businesses more than the U.S.,” said Tony Wong, parliamentary assis- tant to Ontario’s minister of economic development and trade. “So there are many opportunities.” With car parts and rubber and plas- tic machinery topping the list of On- tario exports, it’s a great market for Durham, Mr. Olive said. But he knows some companies may be wary of losing business and jobs to a country where labour rates are lower, the quality of product is high, and there are overall cheaper manufacturing costs. “We know there is some concern with China,” he said. “But China is not going away. So what better way to do it than have a strategic alliance?” There are areas China does well, Mr. Olive said, pointing to the $2 billion in computers, $593 million in TV/radio equipment and $348 million in toys the country exported to Ontario last year. But it is lacking in areas such as research and development and the goods Ontario exports — presenting a great market for local companies. “Don’t be afraid of them,” said Lisa Ikavalko, senior development officer for the Region of Durham. “Look for the opportunities.” Durham businesses told not to be afraid of China trade Appleton, 35, passes away following surgery By Jeff Mitchell Staff Writer DURHAM — Robert Appleton, sen- tenced six years ago to life in prison for a murder that shocked the community, has died in prison. He was 35. Mr. Appleton died in custody at Wark- worth penitentiary near Campbellford, said assistant warden for management services Ann Anderson. She was unable to provide many details about the man’s death. “I can’t (provide information) other than (to say) there were complications from surgery,” Ms. Anderson said. Under provincial law, an inquest is held for any in-custody death. A date for an inquest into Mr. Appleton’s death has yet to be set. Mr. Appleton generated anger and revulsion in the community for the brutal slaying in August 1998, of 24- year-old Jennifer Copithorn, his for- mer girlfriend. Ms. Copithorn’s family members were further dismayed when they learned Mr. Appleton was serving his life sentence at a medium-security, “neighbourhood setting” prison, rather than a maximum security setting. The family, along with supporters, mounted a vociferous campaign that led to the killer being transferred in 2001 to Wark- worth. Mr. Appleton was originally charged with first-degree murder in Ms. Copi- thorn’s killing, but pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 1999. He was sentenced to life in prison with no pa- role for 22 years, a remarkably stringent term. First-degree murder warrants a term of life with no parole for 25 years. The man admitted he had stalked and harassed Ms. Copithorn, who had broken off their turbulent relationship. On the morning of Aug. 4, 1998, he ambushed Ms. Copithorn as she arrived for work at the National Bank branch on King Street East in Bowmanville, pro- ducing a knife he’d kept concealed in a newspaper and stabbing her 19 times. Other workers in the building were alerted to the attack by Ms. Copithorn’s anguished screams. Mr. Appleton fled the murder scene on foot, discarding the knife. But wit- nesses trailed him and he was arrested just four blocks away. After Mr. Appleton’s conviction, Ms. Copithorn’s family was distressed to learn he was being held at Fenbrook In- stitution near Gravenhurst, a medium- security prison designed for the reinte- gration of prisoners preparing to leave jail after lengthy terms. Disgusted at what they saw as lenient treatment for their daughter’s killer, Ms. Copithorn’s family mounted a campaign that was seized upon by the media and other members of the community. “This has taken a toll on my wife and I but we will continue this fight until Rob- ert Appleton is placed where he should be,” Ms. Copithorn’s father, Glen, said at the time. A review by the Correctional Service of Canada resulted in Mr. Appleton’s being moved to Warkworth, where he remained until his death.

Following a three-month out- age, Unit 4 at the Pickering nu- clear station returned to service Monday. The reactor is slowly being brought back to full power, which it should reach in the next few days, Jacquie McInnes says. The unit had been in an un- planned outage since April 16, says Ms. McInnes, manager of media relations for Ontario Power Generation. A problem with the feeder tubes in Unit 1 was found, so OPG “made the conservative de- cision to check Unit 4,” she adds. Feeder tubes carry hot water to and from the reactor, and carry the heat to the reactor’s steam generators. “We took it down to check the feeders” Ms. McInnes notes. “It didn’t come down because there was anything wrong with it.” The unit can produce up to 515 megawatts. A 500 megawatt unit services up to 500,000 people. An outage was planned for the fall, but the required work was completed during the current stoppage, so the unit won’t be powered down in the fall. newsdurhamregion.com searchkeyword: staycool Pickering’s Unit 4 reactor returns from summer vacation durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JULY 22, 2005 PAGE 9 A/P If you don’t receive “Service Worth Paying For” or have any questions or delivery concerns please call The News Advertiser at: 905-683-5110 CARRIERS COLLECT EVERY THREE WEEKS 100% is kept by the carrier as payment for their delivery.

Call 310-CASH DURHAM — A break in the heat wave has led the Independent Electricity Sys- tem Operator to lift the power advisory issued earlier this week. The advisory had asked Durham resi- dents and the rest of Ontarians to reduce electricity consumption wherever pos- sible. By Thursday morning, electricity de- mand has dropped significantly since the beginning of the week. Peak demand for Ontario Thursday was expected to be about 1,500 mW lower than the demand reached Monday, when Oshawa’s high temperature soared to just shy of 34 C, not including the humidex. While the official need to cut back has decreased, “we always encourage con- servation,” said Terry Young of the IESO, the organization responsible for man- aging Ontario’s bulk electricity system and operating the wholesale electricity market. “The efforts of the Ontario consum- ers and businesses who heeded the call to conserve electricity reduced the load on the system and provided us with the flexibility that we needed to continue to reliably operate the power system,” said Paul Murphy, CEO of the IESO. Further appeals to reduce consump- tion may be issued if the heat wave returns or supply conditions worsen, warned the IESO in a news release. newsdurhamregion.com searchkeyword: staycool Mike Pochwat/ News Advertiser photo Good job, chief PICKERING — Five-year-old Travis Chambers, of Ajax, was brushing up on his fire safety skills during a fire safety drive by Du- racell at Toys R Us in Pickering.

Resume help for Ajax and Pickering job hunters www.durhamregion.com Your Millwork flyer is now available on-line at SERVICE WORTH PAYING FOR YOUR NEWS ADVERTISER CARRIER By Danielle Milley Staff Writer DURHAM — Three Picker- ing parents recently returned from a trip Down Under where they shared their story of how they helped their chil- dren live ordinary lives. Linda Dawe, Helen Dionne and Elizabeth Gray are part of the Deohaeko Support Network, a Durham Region family group formed in 1988 to begin to plan for the future of children with disabilities. Families in Australia were interested in learning how families from around Dur- ham have helped their sons and daughters live “ordinary” lives and become part of the community. “There is a great interest in Australia of families tak- ing a greater role in planning for individuals, one person at a time,” said Janet Klees, the Deohaeko family co-or- dinator. She, along with the three parents, were invited to the One Person at a Time conference in Australia. They ended up speaking 13 times in 17 days in five cities, in- cluding Sydney, Brisbane and Melbourne. “We talked about how our sons and daughters live a good life, a life like other people,” Ms. Dawe said. “What we were doing wasn’t so much extraordinary, but working towards achieving the ordinary things in life.” Things such as having a job, an apartment and a boyfriend or girlfriend. One of those goals was accom- plished when the group built the Rougemount Co-op in 1993. The building is home to not only their sons and daughters, but also seniors, single mothers and families looking for affordable hous- ing in the community. “We knew we were doing something right, not just for our children but other peo- ple in the community,” Ms. Dionne said. The co-op has lots of activ- ities for its residents to come together and interact, such as potlucks and corn roasts. The women say they not only shared their story with the families in Australia, but that they also learned from the trip. “(We learned) they worry about the same things we worry about, and they have the same hopes and dreams for their sons and daughters,” Ms. Dawe said. The response to their pre- sentation was encouraging. “What we were saying to them gave them permission to publicly acknowledge that those were the kinds of things they wanted for their sons and daughters,” Ms. Dawe said. “To have a life that would be like the life of any typical young man or woman in society.” The women also got a chance to test the support network they created. “That was really the first time any of us had been far away from our families for that length of time,” Ms. Di- onne said. Ms. Dawe said it was a testimony to the networks they’ve created that they could be gone for two-and-a- half weeks and their children coped very well.

By Danielle Milley Staff Writer PICKERING — As a child, it’s easy to believe flight is possible just by run- ning as fast as you can with your arms stretched out and then leaping into the air. Of course that technique proved fruitless and flying remained a childhood fantasy... until recently. After a recent hot air balloon ride, it was time for something riskier. A hang gliding school in Pickering presented the per- fect opportunity and a tandem flight was arranged. The childhood fantasy was going to become a reality. The day before the big day wasn’t nerve-racking at all — the flight couldn’t go ahead with thunderstorms fore- casted, could it? It would have to be postponed, right? Wrong. At 10 a.m. the call was made and the answer wasn’t what I expected: the flight would go ahead as scheduled. With stomach tightened, you begin to wonder why people do this. A short while later after pulling into the driveway, there was no turning back. Dave Llewellyn, the instructor-pilot, introduced himself and the first question flew out of my mouth: “How long have you been doing this for?” “Two weeks,” he replied. I wasn’t amused. This was no laughing matter. The questions came out rapid-fire on the way into the clubhouse. How does it fly? How high do you go up? How many tandem flights have you done? He answered them all and said people are encouraged to ask questions until they feel comfortable. Then came the scariest part: the waiver. High Perspective was not responsible for any injuries “up to and including death.” Don’t panic, I thought. Mr. Llewellyn and James Rowland pointed out the differ- ent parts of the hang glider, explaining how it works. Then it was time to suit up. Mr. Rowland helped with the harness and helmet. Feeling a little loose, the helmet was tightened — feeling secure would only come with chaffing. After suiting up, the glider was rolled to the top of the small hill and hitched to a tow line. Mr. Llewellyn clipped himself to the glider first and then clipped me to a loop that can hold 5,000 pounds and to the backup loop that can hold the same amount. The clip used can hold 6,000 kg; it was also attached to him - he had the parachute. “You’re not going anywhere,” he assured me. Hanging there, securely in place, any remaining feelings of nervousness faded away. We were ready to go. Mr. Llewellyn gave the signal to Mr. Rowland and away we went, shooting sharply upwards into the smoggy sky. It all happened so fast that it is still un- clear exactly how we ended up at 1,000 feet with the wind blowing over us. The glider was pulled towards the winch truck and then back above where it had taken off. The first tow rope was released and eventually the second. Then we were free, flying high above the green fields and patches of trees. Mr. Llewellyn pointed out our shadow all those many feet below and a hawk flying several hundred feet below us, its brown wings spread out so it too could soar through the sky. The highest we reached was 1,300 feet — not that I could comprehend what that meant. All I knew was I was flying freely in the sky and I couldn’t stop smiling. Never return- ing to the ground would have been just fine. After about 20 minutes it was time to land. Mr. Llewellyn brought the glider around to where we had taken off and lowered us so quickly there was no time to figure out how he was doing it. There was just enough time to ask if the landing was bumpy and to be told to lift my feet before we were just inches from the grass again. We were flying no more. He helped me to my feet. It felt weird to be on solid ground. I wanted to go again. I felt relaxed and exhilarated. We walked the glider back to the clubhouse and removed our gear. It was over. Now when noticing birds soaring in the sky a smile creeps across my face. It reminds me of the afternoon when my dream of flying came true.

This popular spot has been voted top Indian Cuisine restaurant for the last seven years in the Ajax Pickering News Advertiser’s Reader’s Choice Awards. Owner Mohandaar Singh tells us clients travel far and wide from places such as Peterbor- ough, Belleville, Markham and even as far west as Cambridge to satisfy their Mt. Everest craving. Travelling is the easy part, choosing what to eat from their extensive and reasonably priced menu with over 70 dishes to choose from is the challenging part. Luckily my choice was made a little easier as I was able to take advantage of their daily lunch buffet special ($7.99). With many dishes to choose from I thought I would try a little of each. Butter Chicken (marinated in their homemade yogurt, garlic, ginger and spices made tandoori style, cooked with fresh tomatoes) is one of the popular menu items. The Goat Curry, cooked with onions, garlic, ginger and Indian spices, Mattar Paneer (green peas cooked in onions, tomatoes, masala and Chef Singh’s homemade cheese). These were a few that really stood out on the palette. Other delicious items on the menu are the Balti Dishes, which come to your table sizzling, customers can choose from chicken, shrimp or gosh.

OPG is proud to now have all three of its stations in Durham Region – Pickering A, Pickering B and Darlington – operating under five-year licences. putting our energy to good use www.opg.com DURHAM — The number of new homes started in Durham Region in the first half of 2005 slowed down compared to the first half of 2004, according to statistics from the Canada Mort- gage and Housing Corporation. Despite a moderate drop of 9.7 per cent, CMHC market analyst Erica McLerie pointed out that starts for single-detached units, usually a “bellweather” for hous- ing markets, have actually seen a slight increase. “People moving to Durham Region are generally looking for single-detached homes,” she said, adding that drops in many other areas, such as Ottawa and Hamilton, have been more than 20 per cent in the same period. Ajax was the only municipal- ity to register a substantial all- around increase, with housing starts growing 30.3 per cent. The Oshawa Census Metropolitan Area, which includes Oshawa, Clarington and Whitby, dropped by 28.2 per cent. Pickering was almost unchanged with a one per cent increase, although a substantial shift occurred from multiple dwelling units to sin- gles. Overall, Durham Region had 2,023 new single detached units and 494 multiple dwelling units started in the first half of 2005. Last year in the first six months, there were 1,992 singles and 794 multiples.

Golf tournament in Pickering helps send kids to school By Erin Moore Special to the News Advertiser PICKERING — A former Uxbridge student will be in Pickering next month to ensure children in Africa become familiar with the classroom, as well. After graduating from Uxbridge Secondary School in 2002, Spencer Freeman went on to the University of British Columbia to study microbiology and medical anthropology. In the past three years, Mr. Freeman’s education has taken him around the world, but he’s back in Uxbridge this sum- mer, organizing a char- ity golf tournament to raise funds to send African chil- dren to school. The tournament is planned for Aug. 19 at the Glen Cedars Golf Club in Pickering. “Through a UBC/McGill field study program, I had an opportunity to examine the health care situations of rural and urban communi- ties in Africa. One area in particular, that stood out above others, was a region called Mathare, one of the largest slums in Africa.” Mr. Freeman goes on to explain that Mathare suffers from overcrowding, unsanitary water, alcohol abuse, AIDS, high threat of fire and child labour. According to Mr. Free- man, one bright spot in the region is the Mathare Youth Sports Association, which has become the largest self- help, youth sports and com- munity service organization in Africa. More than 17,000 youth participate in MYSA programs and in 2002 and 2003, MYSA was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. “The MYSA program is multi-faceted, but is pri- marily focused around soccer. In addition to their commitment to soccer, chil- dren earn credits for their work on environmental clean-up initiatives, music, drama, dance, team leader- ship, officiating and com- munity involvement,” adds Mr. Freeman. “The ultimate goal is for each child to earn enough credits to apply for a MYSA high school or col- lege scholarship. Children who were destined to live a life of poverty and sickness are attending school and coming back to help their own communities improve. “That’s where this tour- nament comes in,” explains Mr. Freeman. “It costs about $170 Canadian to go to school for a year in East Africa, so by playing in our tournament, each foursome will put a student in school for the following year.” Mr. Freeman is looking for as much support for his tournament as possible, “Mathare is a community in need, but also one that if given an inch of hope, will yield a mile of success. After discussing ways to help with Bob Monro, a Canadian UN representative in Africa, I decided directly connecting Canadians to kids in Kenya would be ideal.” To register for the tourna- ment, attend the dinner or sponsor a hole, contact Mr. Freeman at 647-831-6972 or spencerfreeman@gmail. com. Mr. Freeman will be re- turning to UBC to finish his undergraduate studies this fall, with plans to at- tend medical school and ultimately work for Doctors durhamregion.com THE NEWS ADVERTISER, JULY 22, 2005 PAGE 17 P If you didn’t receive one, please call 905.683.5117 Watch for your Fall Guide with your Pickering News Advertiser Wednesday, July 27 Spencer Freeman, photographed in Africa with a young friend, is hosting a golf tournament in Pickering next month to help send Afri- can children to school. He aspires to go to medical school and work with ‘Doctors Without Borders.’ Durham s tudent helps African children get an education PICKERING — Durham police are asking for the public’s help in identify- ing a machete-wielding suspect in a Pickering rob- bery. Video surveillance of a suspect has produced photos, which are now available on the Durham Regional Police Service w ebsite, www.drps.ca, under media releases. On Saturday, July 2 at approximately 6:30 a.m., police were called to the Petro Canada gas station at Kingston and Liverpool roads in Pickering for an armed robbery. The female clerk report- ed that shortly before 6:30 a.m., a lone female drove up in a dark coloured car and parked near the build- ing. She entered the store carrying a machete, de- m anded and received cash from the clerk, and then fled. The suspect and vehicle, described as a late model Grand Am, were last seen heading south on Liverpool. The clerk was not injured. The suspect is described as 5-foot-7, 30 to 40 years old, with a thin build, and dark straight hair parted in the middle with a pony tail past the shoulders. Anyone with informa- tion is asked to call De- tective Adam Kelly of the major crime robbery unit at 905-683-9100 ext. 5361 or anonymously to Dur- ham Regional Crime Stop- pers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477). Durham police release photos of Pickering machete suspect PICKERING — A Pick- ering couple is $100,000 richer after checking a for- gotten Lotto Super 7 ticket. “I saw a lottery ticket in the sun visor of my van that I had completely forgotten to check” said James Car- son. “I took it into the store and handed it to the store clerk to check. I had no idea that the ticket was good and worth so much.” He and wife Johanne won the Encore second prize in the May 27 draw. Mr. Carson, a 54-year-old driver for a Toronto com- pany, and Mrs. Carson, 48, plan to use their windfall to pay off their mortgage and put the rest in the bank. The winning ticket was purchased at Bayridges Market on Krosno Boule- vard in Pickering. Pickering couple has lotto luck Community online at infodurhamregion.com But that doesn’t mean public should let guard down, says Durham AIDS committee By Jennifer Stone Staff Writer DURHAM — Better drugs with fewer complications are allowing more HIV/AIDS patients to return to work sooner than in past, says a local doctor. But that’s no reason for the gen- eral public to let down its guard against the deadly, incurable dis- ease, say officials. The Rouge Valley Health System and Lakeridge Health recently put out a media release, indicating “Durham and Scarborough HIV/ AIDS patients are having fewer complications and returning to work sooner, thanks to evolving drug treatments over the last two years.” Treatment has improved “quite dramatically” in that time, said Dr. Mike Silverman, chief of in- fectious diseases at Lakeridge Health, and physician leader for the Durham Region turberculo- sis clinic in the Acute Care Unit at Rouge Valley Ajax and Picker- ing. He and a team of health-care professionals, including three registered nurses, a pharmacist, a dietitian and a social worker, treat 400 regular outpatients in a catchment area of one million people. Most of those treated at the Positive Care clinic in Whitby are there for HIV/AIDS. The drug therapies have in- creased the lifespan for some with HIV, said Dr. Silverman. “It used to be a natural progres- sion from HIV and AIDS to death,” he said. “Now most people with HIV or AIDS can live for many years and hopefully, into old age. Now, most patients return to work. Two years ago, that was starting to happen, but today, it’s much more common.” But, that’s not quite what the AIDS Committee of Durham Re- gion is seeing, said its executive director, Peter Richtig. “It paints a rosy picture that we don’t see in the people we’re dealing with,” he said, noting those with HIV/AIDS are living far below the Oshawa median income of about $80,000. “Our people live on less than $11,000 a year... The press release makes it seem like everyone’s back at work and doing well now.” Mr. Richtig said there was simi- lar optimism in the mid 1990s, when protease inhibitors were in- troduced for treatment of those with HIV/AIDS. “We knew that after two or three years, people would be- come resistant to the medication, and they’d start getting sick and dying again,” said Mr. Richtig. Equally disconcerting is the fact that the federal government, since 2000, no longer funds the local AIDS committee to provide prevention education, said Mr. Richtig. Between 2002 and 2004, the local incidence of HIV/AIDS diagnosis jumped by 40 per cent, he said. “We stopped getting funding to do prevention education, and 18 months later, you start seeing a spike in the number of people who are getting diagnosed,” he said. It’s hard to say how many peo- ple in Durham are living with HIV or AIDS, since there is no anonymous testing locally, which means people often go elsewhere for testing, and since it’s estimated about one-third of those infected don’t know they are. Statistically, said Mr. Richtig, it makes sense to believe about one in 1,000 Dur- ham residents are thought to be infected. News of better medical treat- ment for the disease could allow people to let their guard down, said Mr. Richtig.

The bad news is that he has yet to finish a Nextel Cup race in the top 10 and ranks 31st in the points standings. Green s best finish was an 11th in May at Lowes Motor Speedway in the Coca-Cola 600. His 24th-place finish in the USG Sheetrock 400 at Chicagoland Speedway was his best showing of the past four races. Green, 42, is in his second full season driving Petty Enterprises No. 43 Dodge. The former Busch Series champion is one of several drivers Jeremy Mayfield and Michael Waltrip are others who grew up in the stock- car hotbed of Owensboro, Ky. Concerning the daunting task of turning around the fortunes of his team, Green said: We ll, I think we’ve just got to work. Those guys up there are working really hard at the (fabricating) shop. We ve asked a lot out of them this year, which every fab shop has, with the new rules. Plus our new Charger body (means) we’ve had to put a lot of bodies on and cut a lot of them off. “We can’t give up, and our motor package with Evernham Motors, I think, has turned our team definitely in the right direction. We go to the race track without worrying about that anymore, so we’ve got to figure our aerodynamics out and our downforce. Our sport has changed so much, bodywise, and what you do with the springs and the shocks. And even two years ago, it s unbelievable, and we have to figure that out. We seem like we’ve figured it out, but we’re, like, a step behind everybody...It s not easy. Another obstacle isn’t related to technical matters. It’s tough for a driver to keep his self confidence in the face of repeated adversity. “I don’t know. It’s tough,” said Green. “It’s very tough at times to know that you’re capable of winning races and doing the things that you’ve done in the past. When you have setbacks, it’s pretty tough to go throughout that day to finish that race. You ve got to keep your head up and look forward to next week, and hopefully you can turn that corner.” Contact Monte Dutton at hmdutton50@aol.com J e ff G r e e n i s i n h i s s e c o n d f u l l s e a s o n d r i v i n g P e t t y E n t e r p r i s e s N o . 4 3 D o d g e .

WHITBY 905-430-7678 1-888-521-7087 So you’ve decided that this is the year that you’ll fi nally build a pond in your backyard. Welcome to the fastest growing outdoor past time in Canada. According to Scott Rhodes, product manager for Laguna, a manufacturer and distributor of pond products based in Montreal, building a water garden is certainly something you can do yourself, provided you keep these few tips in mind. First, plan ahead by researching your project. There are many books and magazines on building water gardens and ponds. Your fi rst major decision is whether you’ll have a preformed or liner type pond. Preformed ponds are available in a variety of shapes and sizes, typically up to 300 gallons. The advantage here is that you simply dig a hole and insert the ready built basin. With liner type ponds, you need to purchase a special fl exible liner that goes over the hole and serves as the substrate material between the soil and the pond water. The benefi t here is that you can build larger ponds and tailor the shape to suit your needs. Another important factor to consider is location. For instance, a pond should enjoy some shade as well as sunlight. Always ensure that there is access to electrical sources. The next step: pond equipment. Pond water should always be circulated in order to keep it healthy and life sustaining. This is where water pumps come in. They circulate water and provide features such as fountains and waterfalls. The size of the pump depends on many factors, including how much water will be in the pond and how high you want your fountain and waterfall to be. For example, large pumps with high fl ow rates will move more water faster and create higher fountains and waterfalls. Now about fi sh and plants. If you’re going to have some in the pond, you need to keep the water healthy. Water circulation is important, but you also need a fi lter to remove debris and biologically break down harmful toxins and purify water. Filters come in many sizes and perform a variety of functions. Some skim off debris, while others also perform biological and chemical cleaning. Some models are submersible, while others are installed outside the pond. In all cases, a water pump must be connected to one so that water passes through it and is cleaned by the fi lter. Your best resources for detailed information are retailers specializing in water gardens.

Applying a coat of paint is the easiest and most inexpensive way to transform any room in the house. However, for many of us, choosing the right paint colour can be a daunting task. Design expert Debbie Travis has developed a new way to choose colour that simplifi es the entire process. “Choose a mood fi rst, then choose a colour. Think about how you want your room to feel, bright and cheerful, warm and welcoming, dramatic and seductive or calm and serene. Now choose colours that will enhance that mood,” said Travis. The Debbie Travis Paint Collection was developed to make it simple to capture the right moods for your home. Colours are grouped together to enhance each of the four moods, taking the guesswork out of the selection process. Choose a mood...then choose a colour. •A calming space. To create a room that evokes a feeling of peace and serenity choose earth tones including browns, creams and greens. •A cheerful setting. For a room that lightens your spirits when you enter choose happy, energetic colours. Pale and radiant yellows, orange, apricot, and rosy pink are optimistic and fun. •Be dramatic. To produce a sense of passion and drama choose vibrant, saturated colours for a seductive bedroom or a dining room that arouses appetites and lively conversation; deep reds, hot pinks and raspberry, spicy oranges and deep blues will set the mood. •Feelings of nostalgia. Tap into your memory for classic colours that are warm and comforting in a living room, kitchen or bedroom. Select vintage blues and greens, antique reds and golden yellows to create a sense of well being. Finding the right colour palette can be challenging.

However the demands of work often make this impossible to achieve. The coming of the summer sun is the perfect opportunity to spruce up your backyard and make it your own oasis away from outside demands. Whether you are planning a family barbecue or a formal gathering, it’s important to ensure that there is adequate seating for your guests. When selecting a patio set consider the following: Select something that is durable and comfortable. Make sure the set is rust proof, so it can stay outside through all summer weather. Consider the size of your backyard when choosing a set. If you have a smaller space you may want to consider a bistro set to complement your space. Seat cushions are an excellent complement to patio sets, providing a splash of colour and extra comfort for your guests. Don’t forget extra chairs for unexpected guests. An outdoor kitchen cart and large serving pans are an ideal way to prepare food while spending time with your guests outside. Add a splash of colour to your table with coordinated tablecloths, place mats, acrylic plates, cups, bowls and silverware. Continue the party into the night by lighting up your deck with Enjoy lantern string lights and candles. The soft light will create a warm and inviting atmosphere. Mosquito coils and magnets will help keep the bugs at bay so that your guests can relax and be comfortable. Create a space just for you. After the guests are gone you will need a place to relax and enjoy yourself. A large, comfortable chair situated away from the guest area is the perfect way to unwind. - News Canada Backyard oasis 3695$$ 1299$$ REG. $1999 PISA 9 PC.

The Bears exist only because of a lawsuit filed by the mother of one of the boys, so none of the other clubs has any respect for them. And it’s no wonder, none of the players has any ability. None of them can play and no one enjoys the activity and Butter- maker is no help, constantly get- ting drunk and making the kids help kill rats. When the hated Yankees score 18 runs in the first inning against them, all the Bears want to quit. But the addition of a great girl pitcher, Amanda Wurlitzer, and a power-hitting rebel, Kelly Leach, turns the team around, gives them confidence and pushes them into the championship game versus the pinstripes.

Bad news, the Bears are ready to play Matt Brann’s banging the drum for autism Av ril Lavigne’s drummer helping Durham society By David Stell News Editor AJAX — If you were lucky enough to be at Avril Lavigne’s re- cent concert in Toronto and you looked closely at the drummer’s bass drum, you would have seen he was sharing a special message. Matt Brann, who grew up in Ajax, used his drums to help bring awareness to autism, with a special sticker logo of the Autism Society Ontario–Durham Chapter. Prior to the show, talking from his parents’ home in Ajax where he returns whenever he’s in the area, he explained how he got involved with the cause. He says Yvette Fiala, a member of the local chapter and a mother of an autistic child, hap- pens to live down the street. “(She) approached my mom and said ‘I understand Matthew’s been surrounded by autism growing up and would he like to help out with us for something,’” he said. “And I was like, ‘sure’, if I’m in a position that I can draw any attention to it, I’d love to help out a bit.” Now Fiala says they’ve bestowed the title of ‘celebrity patron’ of the local chapter upon Brann and the society was excited to get the expo- sure of its logo on stage in front of thousands of Lavigne’s fans. “Every now and then, when I come back, she’ll call me up and say ‘hey, we’re going to do this’ and I’m like ‘yeah for sure, no problem’,” Brann says. He expects to continue helping the society when he can. “We’re going to keep trying to plug away at it and hopefully bring a little more awareness to it,” he said. Growing up, Brann says his next- door neighbours, friends of the family, had a child with autism. Since meeting Fiala, he’s gotten to know her son and on top of that, his good friend, now the former guitar player for Lavigne’s band, has an autistic sister. Although his friend is not in the band anymore, Brann is still “tight” with him and their families are close as well. Brann, who has lived in Ajax all of his life, has been waiting for a condo he bought in Toronto to be completed. “I still love it here, it was strange at first when I’d go away on tour and we’d go to all these crazy places and do all these crazy things,” he said. “I’ve actually grown to love it here... having to keep coming back here, because my (Toronto condo) isn’t ready, over the last year or so I actually say ‘I love it.’ “It’s nice and relaxing and it’s normal compared to the rest of the world.” He’s been with Lavigne’s band for almost four years now and says it’s all been a whirlwind. This month he’s starting a two-and-a- half month North American tour, after recently getting back from five months on an international tour. He went through several Asian countries including Japan and then Australia before heading to South Africa and several European coun- tries. “(It) was kind of hellish, but we got through it,” he says. Remembering back to the start of his music career, learning to drum in school and playing gigs in Ajax, he describes himself as self-taught. He and his friends were self-moti- vated to learn to play and formed bands to play basement and house parties. He remembers fondly the Chameleon Cafe where the owner would let them play quite often. “It was this little punk rock kind of cafe where they would let younger bands play,” he explains. “It became our hangout and everyone would have a new band every week.” For more information on Autism Society Ontario–Durham Chapter, go online to www.em-space.com/ aso/ or call 1-866-495-4680. Matt Brann, the drummer for Avril Lavigne’s band, is now a ‘celebrity patron’ for the Autism Society On- tario–Durham Chapter.

Approximately 90 teams from around Ontario and Quebec took part in the recent tournament, one of the premier events of the season. In the final, the Predators took on a familiar Durham Region foe in Whitby Iroquois. In a pressure-cooker contest, Pickering and Whitby played strong defensive games with regula- tion time ending at 0-0. Two scoreless overtime sessions forced the game into a shootout, where the Predators received goals by Keva McNally, Kailey Lynch, Amanda Sheppard and Talia Pagniello.

The contest proceeded to a shootout, with Pickering winning on goals by McNally, Lynch, and Shep- pard. Shannon Reynolds scored for Pickering in regulation time. In round-robin action, Pickering opened against Cataraqui, winning 1-0. McNally scored on a penalty kick. In Game 2 against Ottawa South United, the Predators settled for a scoreless tie. Katie Painter was outstanding, earning the two shutouts. Other team members are Barb Parker, Kristen Gordon, Shannon Tuck, Danyelle Sora, Nevrene Lindo, Megan Seeley, Lisa Kennedy, Paige Murray and Nicole Lawson. Dave Sora and Sam Lawson coach the team. The team manager is Colleen Lawson. Pickering hurdler hopes to be gone in less than 14 seconds Nikkita Holder part of 75-member Canadian team at junior Pan Ams By Al Rivett Sports Editor PICKERING — Healthy, confi- dent and with training going well, a Pickering hurdler hopes a fast time will follow at the upcoming Pam Am Junior Track and Field Cham- pionships. Hosted at the new University of Windsor Stadium from July 29 to 31, the championships will fea- ture more than 600 athletes from 44 countries, including those from North, Central and South Ameri- ca as well as the Caribbean. This year, Canada is sending 75 athletes under the age of 19, including Nik- kita Holder, who’ll be running in the women’s 100-metre hurdles. “I’m very excited; I’m looking forward to it,” says the 18-year-old. “I’ll be racing people 19 and under, so I’ll be running against people older than me. It should give me good competition, so I’m excited for that.” The Oshawa Legion Track and Field Club member says she’s fully recovered from a toe injury suffered while training just prior to the On- tario Federation of School Athletic Associations (OFSAA) champion- ships in June. The injury had the net effect of pulling on other muscles in her foot, making it difficult to run. She nonetheless won gold in the senior girls’ 100m hurdles while running for Pickering’s Dunbarton High School, but her time of 14.49 was well off her personal best. Physical therapy and light train- ing has her totally healed and train- ing hard in advance of the Pan Am meet. She qualified for the Pan Ams at the Canadian Junior National Track and Field Championships in Montreal earlier this month, where she finished second in a time of 14.30, which, she says, was “disap- pointing”. Her goal at the Pan Am juniors is not to stand on the podium, but to run a sub-14 second race, some- thing she feels she’s perfectly ca- pable of accomplishing. “I haven’t been able to do that so far this year but, if I do my best, I feel I can break 14 seconds,” says Holder, whose personal best is 14.07. Holder’s been training six days a week at the Oshawa Civic Stadium and at Pickering’s St. Mary Catholic Secondary School in the lead-up to the Pan-Ams, undergoing both speed and hurdles training. Although originally scheduled to report to the University of West Vir- ginia on a track and field scholar- ship in the fall, Holder is returning to Dunbarton for one semester in order to bump up her SAT scores. She plans to start at UWV in Janu- ary. News Advertiser file photo Pickering’s Nikkita Holder, 18, will represent Canada at the upcoming Pan Am Junior Track and Field Championships at the University of Windsor. The Oshawa Legion Track and Field Club member hopes to run a sub-14 second time in the women’s 100-metre hurdles. Pan-Am notes Pickering High School sprinter Marc LaTouche is also scheduled to compete for Canada at the Pan Am juniors in the men’s 100 metres. LaTouche owns a personal-best time of 10.56 seconds in the event... One other Durham Region athlete, Lil- iane Sparkes, of Oshawa, competes in the women’s 5,000m...A total of 41 of the 75 Canadian athletes competing are from Ontario...Canada captured 12 medals at the Pan Am juniors in Barbados in 2003 and, according to head coach, Dennis Fai- rall, he expects his talented young athletes to win many more in their home country this year. “Home- country advantage should help the Canadians rise to the occasion and capture a record number of medals.” 905 WHITBY CAMPUS 668-4211 1818 Hopkins Street 1-866-966-0626 SUDBURY NORTH BAY SAULT STE MARIE TIMMINS BARRIE OWEN SOUND OTTAWA PEMBROKE CORNWALL BELLEVILLE KINGSTON PETERBOROUGH OSHAWA/WHITBY SARNIA CHATHAM WINDSOR KITCHENER LONDON Sales & Marketing Assistant Metroland Corporate Sales has an opening for an enthusiastic • Stong computer skills in Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word and Microsoft Power Point • Outstanding oral and written communication skills, and interpersonal skills • An ongoing record of self-improvement Reporting to the Corporate Retail Sales Director, you will focus on providing sales, marketing and technical support to Corporate Account Representatives by processing electronic advertising orders and materials, entering and man- aging computer data, assisting in the preparation of market research presenta- tions and sales proposals.
