Garbage everywhere. When you get off at Brock what’s the first thing you see? Garbage everywhere,” said Wa rd 1 Regional Councillor Mau- rice Brenner. He brought forward a motion at Monday’s council meeting request- ing the Province provide sufficient resources to the Ministry of Trans- portation so that it can clean up the litter along Hwy. 401 and its inter- changes. Coun. Brenner said he’s received numerous complaints from resi- dents about the state of the gate- ways into the community. “The Whites Road interchange has to be the filthiest in Durham Region... I’m appalled by the condi- tions and so are the residents. That’s the gateway to our community,” he said. City staff contacted MTO about the situation and Everett Buntsma, director of operations and emer- gency services, said they were told the Province only picks up larger items that are a safety concern. Ministry spokesperson Bob Nich- ols said the top priority is to keep highways safe and efficient. Con- tracted maintenance workers patrol on a regular basis and pick up items that would be a safety hazard, he said. “Other litter, we get to it when we can as time and resources permit,” he added. The City feels that level of mainte- nance is not enough and is also ask- ing for the standards to be reviewed to ensure the needs of the city are addressed. “It is appalling to see the amount of litter on the off ramp,” said Ward 2 Regional Councillor Bill McLean. He said that image is not one the City wants to present to visitors and if residents see litter already there they’ll continue doing it. Ward 3 City Councillor David Pickles agreed. “People are throwing their gar- bage out because they see garbage there...

A number of pictures of a young black man taken by a security camera at an automated teller ma- chine in Scarborough have been posted on the Durham Regional Police website, www.drps.ca. The images were captured around 5 a.m. Tuesday, shortly after a doc- tor was roughed up and robbed, police said. The victim was asleep at his Val- ley Ridge Crescent home around 4 a.m. when he was awakened by three young men who’d entered the house. The man was beaten and tied with duct tape by the sus- pects, who made off with a large plasma TV, as well as his cellphone, wallet, and his 2005 BMW. The man sustained minor injuries. Police traced cards from the victim’s wallet to the bank ma- chine in the Sheppard Avenue and Markham Road area. The four- door silver BMW, licence plate AWEK 286, has not yet been lo- cated. Anyone who spots the car or who recognizes the man in the photo is asked to call police at 905- 579-1520, extension 2524. Person of interest in home invasion.

Kathy Ballik, 46, said she was running an errand July 1 when she found the toonie-sized brooch in the parking lot of Van- dermeer Nursery and Garden Centre, in the area of Lakeridge Road and Victoria Street West. “The sun hit the stones on it and I bent down and I picked it up. My initial thought was that it was a war medal,” Ms. Ballik said. Over the course of several weeks, Ms. Ballik said she began researching the origin of the brooch, which is made of enam- el and diamonds. It was soon discovered to be a “sweetheart brooch,” which she said were sent home to relatives by high- ranking officers in the Royal Tank Regiment, a unit of the British Army. The Royal Tank Regiment Museum in England has dated the brooch back to anywhere from 1924 to 1953. “It would have been given to a sweetheart, a wife or maybe even a mother,” Ms. Ballik said. “I look at it, and it looks like it’s been worn almost all the time. It’s well worn, well loved and that’s why in my heart I just keep thinking it needs to go where it belongs. I keep thinking if the lady that it was given to is still alive, how heartbroken she must be to have lost that after all these years?” Ms. Ballik said legions and mu- seums have expressed interest in putting the brooch on perma- nent display. However, for the time being she said she will hold on to the brooch, which she said has been appraised at more than $1,500, in the hopes the rightful owner will identify it and take back possession. “There’s some distinctive things on it that only they would know,” she said. “I just want to find the owner. It belongs with the people, with the family.” Ms. Ballik can be reached at 905-436-9608. If the owner does not come forward, Ms. Ballik said she will to donate the brooch to the Royal Tank Museum in England.

The Province has established personal services setting pro- tocols, designed to prevent the spread of blood-borne illnesses such as hepatitis B and C and HIV. Businesses affected include hair, nail and spa salons, tattoo and body piercing stores. Many people, for example, do not realize that manicure equip- ment such as emery boards, nail files and buffers, wooden cuticle pushers, sand bands and foam toe separators should not be used on more than one client, the health department said. Places that re-use these single- use items can be charged. The beauty and body art dis- play will be on the upper level of the Town Centre Aug. 5 to 7.

Reporter Mike Ruta and photographer Walter Passarella will retell the stories they’ve heard and the things they’ve seen in this summer-long series which will be published each Sunday. By Mike Ruta Staff Writer IQALUIT — In Iqaluit, the art comes to you. Sculptors bring their pieces in stone, ivory and antler to the dinner crowd in restaurants, selling them on the spot after some haggling over a price. Inuit soap- stone carvings are known around the world, but Brian Lunger, manager-curator of the Nunatta Sunakkutaangit Museum, says the medium is a relatively new one for territory artists. “Traditionally, people would tend to make small figurines, primarily out of ivory, sometimes stone, although that was much less common,” he says of earlier art. “Usually they would be amulets or have spiritual significance.” However as non-Inuit started to appear with more regularity in the north, whal- ers, traders and others took a fancy to the pieces produced by local carvers, and the Inuit began making more of it to trade for tobacco, gun powder, knives and wood, Mr. Lunger says. Soon pieces that depicted Inuit life became in demand, a combina- tion of both art and souvenir. Stone carv- ing really emerged in the late 1940s, he says, when the people’s lifestyle changed and the Hudson’s Bay Company would bring works to Winnipeg to sell. “As people started being settled in the communities, the government of the time had to think about ways these people could make a living,” Mr. Lunger says. “A rtwork was something that had had suc- cess.” In the early 1950s, co-operatives were established in Nunavut communities, where artists and craftspeople could trade their work for credit in the town’s store. Mr. Lunger says Cape Dorset “is a re- ally strong artistic community and I’d say there are more artists there per capita than anywhere,” with about 60 per cent of the population creating art. With mo- dernity came other art forms, including print-making, with communities such as Pangnirtung famous for the prints made there. Today, arts and crafts are a key com- ponent of the Nunavut economy. A part of the Iqaluit museum is the old Hudson’s Bay warehouse with its famil- iar red roof. It contains carvings, cloth- ing, tools and other Inuit artifacts. The stone carvings, from all over Nunavut, reflect sometimes the whimsical in Inuit art, such as Clyde River artist Solomonie Tigullaraq’s large soapstone of jovial polar bears, ‘Bears playing the accordion.’ But most often they depict scenes from every- day life: ‘Woman with child in her amou- tiq,’ by Rhoda Tassurapik Olayuq; ‘Man carrying seal,’ and ‘Man blowing into seal- skin float.’ Other carvings are in sponge- like whalebone or walrus-tusk ivory. In Iqaluit, a visitor can buy a sculpture for $100 or less. In Toronto, a similar piece might sell for $200, $300 or even more. At the annual Wadding- ton’s auction of Inuit art in Toronto, Inuit sculptures and prints have sold for tens of thou- sands of dollars. Harry Ikalukjuak, 55, has been carving for more than 40 years, always in stone. As a boy he took a fancy to the north’s most dangerous creature, making it his favou- rite subject. “I mostly like to carve polar bears,” he says. Born in Pangnirtung, he’s lived in Iqa- luit for most of his life. Mr. Ikalukjuak says he makes 10 or 15 carvings a week, spend- ing about two hours on each with power tools such as an electric grinder. He often takes his work south to sell in Ottawa and Montreal. Soapstone is a general term for all the northern stone used for carving. Mr. Lung- er says the jade-like green serpentine is scarce now, not a true soapstone and tied to Cape Dorset artists. Grey soapstone with rusty veins comes from Arc- tic Bay. Similarly, Inuit art has stylistic and thematic differ- ences, depending on where you are in the territory. “In the Baffin (Region) there’s more uniformi- ty, as far as what you would see,” Mr. Lung- er says. “In Kivalliq Region, things tend to be more simple. In Kitikmeot, they make crazy spirit carvings that are kind of grotesque.” newsdurhamregion.com searchkeyword:nunavut2005 Next week: SCHOOL, Inuit culture an integral part of the curriculum Top row from right, a carving from the Nunavut Legislative Building, sculptor Harry Ikalukjuak, and a second carving.

And mornings will be darker for a full hour longer if the United States extends daylight saving time and Ontario follows suit. Of course, there is the bonus of an extra hour of light at the end of the day. During the shortest days of the year, one can head out of the office before 5 p.m. and still be driving home in full darkness. But one’s personal preference on whether we get that hour of sunlight in the morning or in the evening will be a moot point if the U.S. approves a daylight saving extension this fall, to take effect in 2007. Being out of step with the States time-wise, for just two months each year, will cause us greater headaches than having to head off to work and school by streetlight. In the global economy, time zones and differences around the world are a fact of life. But remembering to juggle time with our southern neighbours for two out of 12 months is an unnec- essary annoyance. Ontario has always kept in step with the U.S., following its lead 19 years ago when the Americans advanced the date for moving clocks ahead from the end of April to the beginning of the month. Since the country is our largest trading partner, it makes economic sense to synchronize our watches. The business community has expressed concern that adjust- ments to just-in-time delivery systems around the province will cost money and cause trading disruptions. Airline flights, the To ronto Stock Exchange, conference calls and other aspects of daily business life would be affected. Some argue the Daylight Saving extension, proposed to save energy costs, will in fact realize limited savings. And that might be true, if a prediction of a two per cent energy savings by analysts proves accurate. The Independent Electricity System Operator, the organization that manages Ontario’s power sys- tem, says the hour of lighting we’ll save in the evenings will be somewhat offset by additional morning power usage. But whether we like it or not, many of the decisions and policies made south of the border affect our lives as Canadians. Following the U.S. lead on this issue won’t make us Americans, but it will iron out some needless wrinkles in the work day. On this proposal, Ontario should indeed be keeping time to the U.S. drum. Seaton a sign of near-sighted planning To the editor: I read with amusement that the Independent Electricity System Operator is asking us to restrict power use, while at the same time we are looking at building houses for 60,000 people on the Seaton lands in Pickering. Am I to assume that these houses will use electricity? Does anyone else see the disaster we are heading for? This is just another reason (one of many) why we shouldn’t be building a new community on Seaton. Oh, by the way, my councillor, Maurice Brenner, has just informed me that the Province and City wish to widen Whites Road to accommodate cars. So much for the environment, traffic control and energy conservation.

U nless you spend everyday with someone, or at least a great deal of time with them, you can’t re- ally know everything about them. It’s one of the reasons idolizing sports and entertainment stars is so danger- ous. One minute a star is a hero, the next they’re embroiled in controversy or worse yet, being charged with some ter- rible offense. You can all come up with examples of this. Still, there’s value in having role mod- els. Hurdler Perdita Felicien is a great role model to many in Ajax and Pickering for her work ethic and never-say-die ap- proach on the track. A lesser-known role model in the area, although he deserves some recognition, is Matt Brann. The Ajax man isn’t noticed much de- spite how loud his profession is. A drum- mer, he happens to be the guy that sets the beat for many teenagers’ favourite pop tunes in Avril Lavigne’s band. Still, he’s earned some notoriety from diehard Lavigne fans and since he has some of the limelight, he’s shown he’s more than willing to use it to do some good. Approached by the Durham Chapter of the Ontario Autism Society to help spread the word about mentally-disad- vantaged kids, he was quick to throw his support behind the cause. Knowing kids who are autistic made it a natural fit, he explains. As a result, thousands of people at Ms. Lavigne’s recent Toronto concert saw the chapter’s logo on his drum set while they sang along to her many hit songs. It makes you wonder how many other unsung heroes there are out there in our community. It’s a lot of fun to go to volunteer appreciation ceremonies held by different charities and community groups. Yo u’d be amazed how many people give their time to help others, without asking for recognition. Singling out Mr. Brann is only a means to an end, though. He certainly is only doing what he can to help because there’s a need. He made it clear he felt he owed it to the Autism Society to lend any ‘c elebrity’ status he has. It was a respon- sibility he was glad to take on. Kids all go through phases and idolize stars at times in their lives, but you have to look for the positives when they do. As my daughter sings Ms. Lavigne’s hits, I’m going to tell her about the star’s drum- mer and the good thing he’s doing. Maybe that will leave a lasting impres- sion after she tires of the music and finds a different ‘hero’ tomorrow. David Stell’s column appears every third Sunday. E-mail dstell@durhamregion. com.

So it’s really no surprise that according to the latest Gallup Survey, 90 per cent of all people who go to a chiropractor say their care was effective. Chiropractic care centres on the spinal column and the nervous system and offers a “whole body” approach to healing. It makes sense once you think about it. The spinal column houses your spinal cord and spinal nerves branch out from between your vertebrate to areas all over your body. A misalignment of a vertebrate may cause a pinched or inhibited spinal nerve that may result in headaches, lower back pain and numerous other ailments. That’s why spinal adjustments can help the body heal more effectively. By using physical examinations and X-rays when necessary, chiropractors detect, locate and correct spinal misalignment (also called subluxation). Rather than treating just your symptoms, chiropractors are trained to find the root of the problem and correct it. Once the problem is identified, the solution varies. In addition to manual and instrumental adjustments, your chiropractor may recommend other procedures or health regimens. Remember, chiropractic care works with your body’s natural strengths. Care to know more about chiropractic? Now that you know why chiropractic is so effective for so many people, why not make an appointment for an initial consultation to talk about the type of care and patient services the office provides. Getting to know a chiropractor could help you get the most out of your life.

Groen/ News Advertiser photo Pickering Swim Club athletes, including, from left, Danielle Gomba, Kaleigh Heard, Allison Foster, Ainsley Corkum and Rebecca Ache- son managed strong performances against many of the top swimmers in Canada at the recent club nationals meet in Winnipeg. City swimmer breaks meet record Pickering Swim Club sends nine athletes to club nationals PICKERING — A Pickering swim- mer took a golden effort a step fur- ther while competing at the 2005 Ca- nadian Long Course Club Nationals in Winnipeg recently. Pickering Swim Club’s Danielle Gomba, 12, not only swam to gold in the girls’ 11-12 50-metre butterfly, but also set a new meet record with a time of 28.94 seconds. The record- breaking time, set in a preliminary swim, was fast enough to qualify Gomba for the senior nationals. Her gold-medal swim was completed in 29.47 seconds. The meet record was also a new club record. The PSC was represented at the club nationals by eight other swim- mers: Laura Nicholls, Jessica Ward, Adam Gomba, Jeff Cernele, Rebecca Acheson, Ainsley Corkum, Kaleigh Heard and Allison Foster. The meet included 109 teams from across Can- ada, with the PSC placing 26th over- all. In the female team scores, PSC was 14th overall and in male scores, the Pickering club placed 71st. All told, PSC swimmers set 13 new club records, led by Danielle Gomba, who set six. In addition to her mark in the 50m fly, she also set new stan- dards in the 11-12 50m freestyle in 28.78, the 50m backstroke in 32.46, the 100m back in 1:09.60, the 100m fly in 1:06.05 and the 200m fly in 2:35.56. Her brother, Adam, established new club marks in the boys’ 13-14 age group in four events: 100m free (57.40), 200m free (2:02.26), 400m free (4:21.47) and the 200m fly (2:20.43). Meanwhile, Rebecca Acheson set records in the girls’ 15-16 200m fly (30.92) and the 100m fly (1:07.72), which bettered the nine-year-old mark of 1:07.92. Jeff Cernele eclipsed a nine-year- old club record in the boys’ 15-16 200m back, swimming in 2:27.59. The previous mark was 2:27.77. Rock sidelined by K-W Kodiaks in semifinal series Better effort, but same result for Ajax-Pickering DURHAM — A season of promise is over for the Ajax-Pickering Rock. The OLA senior ‘B’ lacrosse team was swept out of its semifinal playoff se- ries by the Kitchener-Waterloo Kodiaks at the Waterloo Memorial Recreation Complex on Thursday night. The Kodiaks ended the Rock’s season with a 7-4 win to end the best-of-five series three games to none. Playing without sniper Jason Crosbie and defensive specialist Dan Ladouceur in the lineup, the Rock fell behind 2-1 after the opening frame and 5-3 after two periods, the fifth goal coming with a mere 1.1 seconds remaining. The Rock weren’t able to get over the two-goal hump in the final stanza. Jim Veltman led the way with two goals and an assist. Other scorers were Mark Craig and John Veltman. Other assists went to Jared Bilich with two, Jay Preece and Aaron Binstock. The Rock’s loss represented a disap- pointing end to a season of high expec- tations, says head coach Paul St. John. “I’m proud of our guys. Although Kitchener-Waterloo was a better team than us, there’s no way they should have beaten us three games straight,” he says. The Rock, in its third season, brought back legendary National Lacrosse League player Jim Veltman, who came off a championship year with the Toron- to Rock. He was surrounded by fellow pros Crosbie, Ladouceur, John Veltman and Preece on a team that was mostly intact from the previous season. But, St. John pointed out candidly that the players never came together as a team, which hurt in the end. “I’m not going to pull any punches. There was a lot of turmoil, a lot of stuff behind the scenes. This has to be cor- rected in order for us to go forward,” says St. John. “We’ve got to get everyone on the same page. When you get players who don’t buy into the team, there’s a problem.” St. John says there is some doubt whether he will return for a fourth sea- son with the Rock. St. John came on to coach the team early in the club’s inaugural season and has been behind the bench ever since. That decision as to whether or not he’ll return will ulti- mately be made by team co-owner Rob Roche. “Rob has the final say; he’ll do what’s best for the team,” says St. John. The Rock won their opening best-of- five playoff series against the Brooklin Merchants three games to one. The Kodiaks meet the winner of the other semifinal series between the Mohawk Stars and the Owen Sound Woodsmen in the best-of-seven league final. That series currently has the Stars out in front two games to one.
