The 14-year-old Ajax resident has been having fun learning the new skills and finds it relaxing spending time outside and on the water. Daniel is one of the children able to participate in a summer day pro- gram at the club because of a grant from the Trillium Foundation and a partnership with Reach for the Rainbow that allows children with special needs to enjoy the same ac- tivities any other child can. He has asperger’s and ADD. His mother Ann Scott said they’ve tried other organized sports, but there are few leagues that work for Daniel. “They don’t accommodate a child with special needs,” she said. Ms. Scott said the experience has been such a positive one for Dan- iel that she will definitely tell other parents about it. She said it can be a lot of work to find a program that is suitable for special-needs chil- Smoother sailing for youth with disabilities Men use crowbar to extensively damage home and car PICKERING — A Pickering couple was dealing with a long list of damaged property after a run-in with crowbar-wielding criminals in the early hours of Friday morning. The male homeowner on Heathside Crescent arrived home from work around 1:30 a.m. to see a suspicious vehicle with two males inside circling the block. He confronted the suspects and when they didn’t respond to him, he told them he was going to call police. They then approached him with a crowbar and he returned to his residence to call police. The suspects drove to the end of the street before returning to the man’s house, where one suspect proceeded to smash the windows and taillights of the car parked in the driveway and then walked up to the homeowner’s front porch, where he used the crowbar to smash the screen door and front door, reports Dur- ham Regional Police. The second suspect then drove the car into the homeowner’s parked vehicle and pushed it onto the front steps, which were damaged. The suspect then drove into the homeowner’s vehicle that was parked on the street and damaged the hood and the pas- senger side headlight. Both suspects fled the scene before the police arrived. They are described as two white males in their early 20s. Police are looking for the four- door, grey, 2002 Volkswagen they were driving with the licence plate AXAK713. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call the Ajax Pickering Community Police Office at 905-683-9100 ext. 2531.

The yacht club received a $79,000 Trillium grant in March to help with renova- tions to make it easier for people with disabilities to go sailing. The first phase of the proj- ect opened Aug. 9. It includes a brick area on the beach to make it more stable for people to get into a boat and a new deck with a railing to help with any safety con- cerns. Future phases include an accessible washroom and an elevator. Through the partnership with Reach for the Rainbow, the FBYC received guidance and had several youth from the community referred to the program, which saw counsellors work one-on- one with the youth. Sixteen youth will have participated in the program by the end of the summer. Reach for the Rainbow is a registered charity serving children and young adults with developmental and physical disabilities across Ontario. By working with its partners, it is able to provide integrated recreational op- portunities. Elyse Goodall and her 13-year-old daughter Adria James were referred to the program by the charity, “When I heard about the sailing I thought it was new and exciting and I always want my daughter to do something new,” she said. Adria has a neuromuscu- lar disorder that slows down her mobility and speech. Ms. Goodall said the counsellors were accommodating and worked well with her daugh- ter. “(The program) gave her some new skills that she wouldn’t otherwise be able to gain,” she said. “Something she can do to fit in.” Program provides assist ✦ Program from page 1 Jason Liebregts/ News Advertiser photo Daniel Scott prepares to hoist the main sail at a Frenchman’s Bay Yacht Club summer camp.

PICKERING — Police have charged one of the drivers involved in an accident last weekend that sent a senior to hospital with serious inju- ries. Durham police were called to investigate a two-car crash at the intersection of Taunton and Altona roads around 10:40 a.m. Aug. 6. Police said a Honda had run a red light and collided with another car, leaving a 76-year-old Ajax man with serious injuries. Police have now charged 21-year-old Jane Robinson of Canso Drive in Claremont with dangerous driving caus- ing bodily harm. Charges laid in serious weekend crash in Pickering Vir us found in Oshawa and Ajax By Erin Hatfield Staff Writer DURHAM — Oshawa and Ajax are home to batches of mosquitoes carrying the West Nile virus, the Region has confirmed. Durham Region’s health department on Aug. 8 re- ported that two pools of mosquitoes, one in Ajax and the other from Oshawa, were carrying the virus. The batches had been sent for testing on Aug. 2. These are the first mos- quitoes in Durham to test positive for the West Nile virus this season. The Region confirmed the season’s first case of the virus in a bird on Aug. 1, when a crow picked up in Oshawa tested positive. At that time, Laura Freeland, a senior public health in- spector with the Region’s West Nile program, said the virus in mosquitoes often followed confirmation in birds. “It is to be expected we would find, two or three weeks following the posi- tive test of a bird, that then we would find it in mosqui- toes,” Ms. Freeman said. West Nile is a mosquito- borne virus that cycles be- tween birds and mosqui- toes, Ms. Freeman explained in the earlier interview. It is spread to humans through the bite of an infected mos- quito. Feeding on the blood of a bird carrying the virus in- fects mosquitoes and can then be passed onto hu- mans through mosquito bites. The Province continues to report no human cases of We st Nile so far this season. However, the health depart- ment urges residents to take precautions to minimize the risk of mosquito bites, in- cluding avoiding high mos- quito populations, using repellent containing DEET, wearing light-coloured clothing, and getting rid of stagnant water around the outside of the home to help eliminate breeding sites. For more information on West Nile or to report sight- ings of dead crows, blue jays or raptors, call the health department’s environmen- tal help line at 905-723- 3818 or 1-888-777-9613, ext. 2188.

Those in charge of fighting the growing AIDS epi- demic in Africa are about to find out. That’s because the world’s richest man, who also dou- bles as the world’s biggest philanthropist, has just made a $500 million donation over five years to battle AIDS as well as tuberculosis and malaria. Bill Gates, who spent the first half of his life amassing a software fortune and now would appear to be spend- ing the second half of his life giving much of it away, has sparked tremendous interest in the International AIDS conference. The 16th annual event kicks off today in Toronto and runs until Friday. It features 24,000 scientists and activists -- among them Mr. Gates and his wife Melinda as well as former U.S. president Bill Clinton -- who will come to the GTA. It will also involve members of the AIDS Committee of Durham Region, a group of hard-working people who have done everything they can to deal with the disease here in the region. The gift from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation is a real boost in the battle against AIDS. At the same time, Stephen Lewis, the Canadian who has been on the front lines in the battle against the disease as United Nations envoy on AIDS, has made clear his disappointment in the worldwide response to Africa’s troubles. Mr. Lewis particularly singled out his own country for being “delinquent,” in its approach to supplying badly needed AIDS drugs to Africa. Under a program the former Liberal federal government signed off on, millions of dollars of generic AIDS medica- tion was supposed to flow to Africa. But Mr. Lewis said that after years of inaction, not one pill has reached the continent. That’s why the theme of this year’s conference, ‘Time to Deliver,’ is an appropriate message. Talk is cheap and what is clearly needed is action. Mr. Gates has certainly put his money where his mouth is and it’s time for governments around the world to do their part in battling an epidemic that kills millions every year in Africa. Column sends contradictory message To the editor: Re: ‘John and the denizens of darkness,’ Jeff Mitchell column, Aug. 6. Isn’t it hypocritical, or at least ethically inconsistent, to edi- torialize about the evils of prostitution while your otherwise fine publication accepts money for ads from escort services and massage parlours? Could Mr. Mitchell have saved himself some time and in- vestigatory effort by hanging out in the classifieds section of the News Advertiser rather than at King and Simcoe streets in Oshawa?

Billy Smith’s biggest success is inspiring S itting at a book table inside St. Paul’s on the Hill Anglican Church, faith healer Billy Smith is easy to iden- tify. A big Texan dressed in a plaid red shirt and black pants, his cowboy hat nearby, Mr. Smith looks the same, but less suspi- cious, than the suit-and-tie picture on his website. While visiting Pickering and the Church Without Limits, Mr. Smith happily accept- ed a request to demonstrate his abilities on News Advertiser student Alistair Lowe, who suffers from chronic back pain. “You’ll see some things here you’ve never seen before; if you don’t, I’ll buy you lunch,” says Mr. Smith, sitting up- stairs in a hot and dimly lit area of the church, more private than the hallway below. During the interview, he speaks loudly, but gently, over the passionate singing blasting from the church’s chapel as peo- ple prepare for his service. He’s pretty confident for a man who undoubtedly faces skeptics everyday, es- pecially since his own story includes get- ting his head crushed by a car and having God miraculously fix him in front of doc- tors’ eyes. While watching his healing service, there are other questionable claims and events that occur, such as his leg-growing procedure. Mr. Smith says most chronic back pain is caused by having one leg shorter than the other or a crooked spine. To verify his statement, he asks if a nurse or doctor is in the audience and sure enough, a woman in uniform comes forth. Mr. Smith asks for people with back pain to come forward and one by one, they sit in a chair in front of him, put their feet in his lap and let them relax and fall open to the sides. With a camera captur- ing all the miracles on a big screen, he shows people one foot is shorter. Slowly, he looks them in the eye and talks to them while turning their feet inward so their toes face upwards and their foot looks longer -- more likely the work of percep- tion rather than God. For Mr. Lowe’s healing, he admits he felt a difference at first, but suspects it was a result of Mr. Smith’s slight tugging on his legs. According to Mr. Lowe, it’s a technique he’s received in therapy. But others claim Mr. Smith’s healing hands made them feel better than they have in years, and maybe they did. Although the authenticity of Mr. Smith’s claims are debatable, his gifts are unique. If nothing else, he is able to get people to like him so much, they want to believe and are inspired as a result, which is a great success in itself.

JOSEPH A. MISKIN, DENTIST HWY. 401 HWY. 2 WESTNEY RD.HARWOOD AVE.WE ARE AVAILABLE TO SERVE YOU WE WELCOME NEW PATIENTS WE PEOPLE OF ALL AGES Stress has become the number one malady of our time. The constant pressure associated with living in a fast-paced world has created an environment where almost everyone is suffering to some degree from excessive stress. The effects on our health, productivity and quality of life are devastating--more devastating than people have realized. Some common early signs of stress include; irritability, headaches, digestive problems, pain in neck and shoulders, dizziness and raised blood pressure. With prolonged or regular overstress, these can lead to or develop into conditions that are more serious. Because the mind and body deeply affect each other, too much stress also affects us mentally and emotionally. Some of the emotional and behavioural changes we can experience include a change in the way we relate to other people. For example, people can become more depressed, withdrawn, and not able to listen to others or be less Are You Stressed? Anne Dranitsaris, Ph.D. sensitive towards others. Emotions like anxiety, anger, and frustration can become heightened. Many people have simply adapted to stress in an unhealthy way, resigned to thinking it’s “just the way it is.” However, adapting to stress and unmanaged stress have created a pandemic of low-grade anxiety and depression as well as the physical symptoms mentioned previously. Managing your stress so that it doesn’t negatively affect your health can be learned through a program called Mindfulness- Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) originally developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. at UMass Medical Center. This program is designed for people who want to mobilize their own inner resources of mind and body and take charge of their health and lives. Anne Dranitsaris. Ph.D. is a clinical psychotherapist in private practice in Pickering. She works with individuals and groups using Mindfulness-Based approaches for treatment of stress-related problems, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. She will be conducting a Free Introductory Seminar, Monday, August 21st at 6:30 pm on Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction . For more information about upcoming MBSR programs, contact the Centre for Mindful Therapies at 905.509.7790 or visit www.mindfultherapies.com. Free Stress Reduction Seminar Monday, August 21st, 2006 6:30 to 8:00 pm 1780 Altona Road, Pickering Are you are experiencing intense stress right now? Do you have a challenging job with a punishing workload, intense demands and unrealistic deadlines? Or does juggling the demands of work and home life just keep piling on the pressure? Maybe relationship problems are making your life a misery, or perhaps you are just not getting the support you need? While most people realize that stress is a part of their lives, few take time to think about the consequences. Stress, which has physical, emotional and mental ramifi cations, has been linked with medical or emotional problems such as hypertension, heart disease, PMS, headache, IBS, cancer, diabetes, panic, anxiety, depression, to name a few. Join us at our Free Introductory Seminar and learn more about an approach that leads to responding to stress more effectively. The Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) program, originally developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn, Ph.D. at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center teaches you how to use your own inner resources for growing, healing, and taking charge in your life.

He hopes to represent Canada at the 2012 Olympic games. Langlois has Olympic-sized aspirations Ajax club member captures Canadian title By Shawn Cayley Staff Writer DURHAM — Every time Derek Lan- glois steps onto a judo mat, at first glance, he appears at a disadvantage. Being 14-years-old and matched up against competitors three and four years his senior tends to give off that effect, says Karl Doherty, one of his coaches. However, his drive, determination and dedication to the sport has allowed him to advance through the ranks with rela- tive ease en route to becoming the under 17 Canadian Juvenile Judo Champion. “Derek, he is the next big superstar, no doubt about it,” said Karl Doherty of Langlois, who competed in the 42- kilogram division and bested Alexandre Di Bartolo of Quebec for the gold. “He struggled a little when he got bigger, but now, he just kills everyone.” Langlois was considerably more hum- ble when asked about his accomplish- ment, which occurred recently in Leth- bridge, Alberta. “It was weird at first,” he says, describ- ing the feeling right after winning gold. “A fter I won I was kind of all out of it and I didn’t really know what had happened when it was over. But now, looking back, I know what happened.” What happened was Langlois ham- mering down yet another opponent, this time at the national level. With that in mind, both athlete and coach have their eyes set on a much larger prize. “To the Olympics in 2012,” says Lan- glois, who travelled to Germany earlier this year for a tournament. Doherty says there is every reason to believe Langlois can advance to that level within six years time, based solely on his desire to be the best. “Derek is a very athletic kid, he has been doing judo now since he was about four or five years old and he has always been the best at whatever sport he did,” explains Doherty, whose brother Kevin, a former Olympic athlete, also coaches Langlois at the Ajax Budokan club. “This kid knows exactly what he wants to do. He will not miss a practice or cheat on an exercise. I don’t even see this out of Olympians. The drive he has is incred- ible.” If Langlois stays on course, Doherty could soon see that in an Olympian. Like most successful athletes, Langlois has a great support system behind him in his mother and father, along with his younger brother, who is also involved in judo. “They are great,” says Doherty of Lan- glois’ family. “That allows him to reach whatever potential he is going to reach.” While also giving credit to his family, Langlois was quick to praise the work of the Doherty brothers. “Karl and Kevin, I wouldn’t be where I am if it wasn’t for those two,” he admits. “They have helped me so much in be- coming successful at this level. I train six or seven times a week when I’m getting ready for a tournament and they are right there.” Growing up, Langlois has enjoyed playing hockey, ball hockey, lacrosse and soccer, but it’s been his dedication to judo that turned him into a Canadian champion. Rock down two , need sweep to claim title DURHAM — A big hole got even deeper for the Ajax-Pickering Rock on Thursday. The Rock was down 2-0 in its best-of- five championship with the Wellington Aces entering Game 3 of the OLA senior ‘B’ lacrosse league series last night, Aug. 12, at the Pickering Recreation Complex. The result was not known at press dead- line. If the Rock won, Game 4 is tonight in Elora. If necessary, Game 5 is Tuesday at the recreation complex, starting at 8:30 p.m. On Thursday, the Rock fell 7-3. Mark Craig, Tony Henderson and Mike Daley scored. “Our backs to the wall. We need to be better offensively. You don’t win games scoring three goals,” coach Paul St. John said. “We have to win the first period. I’ve watched Wellington enough and I know they don’t like to play from behind. “We haven’t been able to get a lead. We gotta get the first goal.” He added his team has given up power-play goals early in the first period of both games and hasn’t been able to overcome the obstacle. Falling behind is “a big hurdle”, he said. Despite being down two games, St. John was still confident his team can prevail. “I know my team,” he stated, pointing out the Rock went through a four-game losing streak during the regular season, but snapped out of that to go on a nine- game winning streak. “So, I know we can do it.” On a sad note, St. John noted the Rock are wearing black arm bands in memory of Don Swindells, one of the founders of the West Durham Lacrosse Association. Swindells passed away from cancer last week. “I knew him quite well. He brought (West Durham lacrosse) to where it is. He was a terrific guy and great friend.” Community & Social Services Worker • Group Home Support Worker • Community Service Worker • Addictions Worker • Youth Worker • Women’s Shelter Coordinator Not all programs available at every campus Register today for September Classes 905-420-1344 Paralegal/ Legal Admin • Courts–Federal/ Provincial • Banks/ Financial Institutions • Insurance Companies • Law Offi ces • Large Corporations Not all programs available at every campus Register today for September Classes 905-420-1344 Ontario Trade Academy (Registered Career College) Is offering courses in: •Home Inspection Officer Diploma Course •Home Staging Certificate Course •Professional Organization/Decluttering Seminar Call Now To Register - Spaces Limited Grand Opening and Info Session Day Saturday, August 26th, 11 a.m. - 3 p.m. 1-877-585-5505 www.sernasgroup.com Our successful consulting engineering firm has fulltime openings at our Whitby office for staff experienced in land development or municipal engineering.

It’s a Mobile Showroom which just may be the only one in Canada. “The day is gone when you car- ried some brochures and a sample window to a customer’s home,” ex- plains Wayne. “So I obtained a retired North York Mobile Library truck and installed interior walls along with all of my window samples.” When you call Durham Win- dows and Doors for a free estimate, Wayne will show up at your door with his Mobile Showroom which you’ll enter by way of a sliding patio door. Inside, displayed on the walls, are the Vinyl Window Designs series of vinyl windows which you’re free to operate and you’ll discover the many special features including how they can be cleaned without going outside. “After being in this business for 26 years, I can honestly say these are the fi nest windows on the market,” says Wayne. “They’re triple sealed to reduce air leakage and come with heavy duty hardware.” All Vinyl Window Designs win- dows come with Low E Glass which fi lters out the ultraviolet rays keeping your home cooler in the summer and eliminate fading of your curtains, drapes and furniture. All of the windows come with a lifetime warranty on the frame, hardware and glass. Wa yne would also like his cus- tomers to know that he does all of the estimates personally, eliminating the cost of a salesperson. Durham Windows and Doors also does all of its own installations, which ensures that every customer gets a high quality job done at the best possible price. Durham Windows and Doors is located at 696 King St. W. in Osha- wa. For more information call (905) 579-2222 or 1-888-576-8575.
