Ups and downs
for Durham public
and Catholic boards
By Crystal Crimi
ccrimi@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Grade 3 and 6
provincial test results released
Wednesday show gains and
losses for Durham’s public and
Catholic school boards.
The Durham Catholic and
Durham district school boards
are above or near the provin-
cial average for the percentage of
students reaching or exceeding
the provincial standard in read-
ing, writing, and math, accord-
ing to the Education Quality and
Accountability Office’s (EQAO)
2007/2008 school board results.
The standard is a Level 3 or 4 on
EQAO tests - equivalent to a ‘B’
or higher.
“It should be heartening to
(parents) that their children are
receiving the types of programs
that meet their needs,” said Lu-
igia Ayotte, the public board’s
superintendent of programs.
In Ajax’s Duffin’s Bay Public
School, there’s been some big
improvements. Its Grade 3 re-
sults went up to 81 per cent in
reading from 57 the previous
year, 87 from 71 in writing, and
87 from 74 in math. In Grade 6,
it fell to 61 per cent from 68 in
reading, rose to 58 from 49 in
writing, and went from 41 to 36
in math.
“We’re thrilled with our results
as we always are,” said Andrea
Della Torre, Duffin’s Bay princi-
pal.
“And I credit our staff,” she
said.
They were a little surprised at
the junior math results though.
“And concerned,” she said.
Staff have already met to dis-
cuss the results and when they
get more detailed data, they’ll
see where students struggled.
“Then we’ll have more specif-
ic details on which direction to
take,” Ms. Della Torre said. The
percentage drop could also be a
reflection of this year’s smaller
math class, she said.
Students also made big gains
at Bellwood Public School in
Whitby.

WHITBY — Suspects
caught on security video
scooping up cash from an
automated teller machine
in a Whitby pub are being
asked to come forward and
surrender their ill-gotten
gains to police.
Durham police have ar-
rested two men in connec-
tion with the original theft,
but say others took advan-
tage of the opportunity cre-
ated when someone broke
open an ATM inside the Tap
and Tankard on Brock Street
South in the early morning
hours Friday.
Two suspects were busted
shortly after the machine
was breached just after 1
a.m., police said.
Mark Kendall, 27, of Sayor
Drive in Ajax and 27-year-
old Jonathan Branzanti of
Medley Lane in Ajax are
charged with theft and pos-
session of stolen property.
Police are reviewing secu-
rity tape that shows a num-
ber of other people grabbing
cash from the broken ATM.
They’re urging the culprits
to hand over the cash.
Anyone with information
is asked to call police at 905-
579-1520, ext. 1845 or Crime
Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477.
DURHAM — The num-
ber of local General Motors
workers who have opted to
retire or take advantage of
the grow-into-retirement
plan has now exceeded the
number of jobs expected to
be lost by the truck plant
closing.
CAW Local 222 President
Chris Buckley said Tuesday
that 2,621 members of the
local have chosen to retire
or participate in grow-into-
retirement, which is a plan
offered to workers who
have been with GM for 26
or more years.
The offer came in July as
a result of bargaining after
GM announced its inten-
tion to shut down the truck
plant.
As part of the package
workers with between 26
and 29 years of GM work
will be paid 65 per cent of
their wages from the day
they leave until they hit 30
years seniority.

surrender ill-gotten gains

Kids in
crisis can
now get
help 24/7
New response line a
partnership between
local agencies
By Jillian Follert
jfollert@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Suicidal thoughts
and mental health breakdowns
don’t always happen during regu-
lar business hours, but until re-
cently, that was the only time staff
were available to monitor local
phone lines for children and youth
in crisis.
Now, thanks to a unique part-
nership between agencies, Dur-
ham Region has a line available
24 hours a day, seven days a week,
to help children, youth and their
families. Durham Region Crisis Re-
sponse was launched Wednesday
with the unveiling of two phone
numbers, one local and one toll
free.
Children, youth under 18 or
their family members can call if a
person under 18 is experiencing a
crisis that is not life-threatening,
but requires immediate interven-
tion. That could include suicidal
feelings, depression, anxiety, ag-
gression, refusal to go to school or
social isolation.
“We get such a wide range of
calls, it’s nice for the families not
to have to try to choose where
to call, now that there is just one
number,” said Jill Wantola, a clini-
cal supervisor with Frontenac
Youth Services, one of several
agencies working to provide the
service. “Most agencies have long
waiting lists for children’s mental
health services. This way, if there is
something that needs immediate
intervention, they can get help.”
Crisis workers who handle the
calls are specially trained to de-es-
calate and stabilize the situation,
then help the caller developer
a crisis management and safety
plan. The workers also provide
information about mental health
services in the community, make
referrals and provide advocacy if
needed. The new response line
is facilitated by Chimo Youth and
Family Services, Durham Mental
Health Services, Frontenac Youth
Services and Kinark Child and
Family Services.
“A lot of the time, people are just
overwhelmed by whatever is going
on,” said Frances Harris, crisis ser-
vices co-ordinator with Durham
Mental Health Services. “They just
need someone to talk to.”
Statistics from Children’s Mental
Health Ontario indicate one out of
five children and youth struggle
with mental health issues at some
time.
Durham’s crisis response line
can be reached by call 905-666-
0483 or 1-800-742-1890.

In Grade 3, reading went from 75
per cent up to 84; writing from
71 to 74; and math from 80 to 97.
Grade 6 results changed from 51
per cent to 69 in reading, 35 to 76
in writing, and down one point
to 41 from 42 the previous year.
“We were all very excited,” said
Karen Smith, Grade 3 teacher at
Bellwood. “We took great pride
in it as a primary division at Bell-
wood that those students were
that prepared and able to get that
information down onto a paper
in that amount of time.”
In the public board as a whole,
the percentage of Grade 6 stu-
dents that met the standard in-
creased to 70 per cent from 65
in reading, 68 from 59 in writing,
and to 60 from 57 in math. For
Grade 6 Catholic students, 73 per
cent met the standard in reading,
up two percentage points from
the previous year; 71 per cent in
writing – up four points; and 69
in math, up three points.
The public board did a five-
year review of the EQAO test re-
sults and saw big gains for reading
and writing for Grade 3 students.
“We made a 12 per cent gain
in reading,
13 per cent
in writing,
and seven in
math,” said
Ms. Ayotte.
In the Dur-
ham Dis-
trict School
Board, the
percentage
of Grade
3 students
meeting or doing better than
the standard stayed the same in
reading, at 63 per cent, rose four
percentage points to 67 in writ-
ing, and dropped two points to
67 in math. The Durham Catho-
lic District School Board’s results
were 67 per cent in reading, 70 in
writing, and 75 in math.
In Grade 3 reading, the Catho-
lic board went down two per-
centage points and up one for
math.
“The results are in line with
how we’ve been doing over the
past number of years,” said Paul
Pulla, the Catholic board’s direc-
tor of education.
“When you have a plus or
minus two per cent, one can say
you’re just sustaining the same
results,” Mr. Pulla said.
“But overall, I think one can
say there’s been steady improve-
ment,” he said. The provincial
average for Grade 3 students is
61 per cent in reading, 66 in writ-
ing, and 68 in math. In Grade 6,
it’s 66 in reading, 67 in writing,
and 61 in math.
Grade 9 math numbers rose to
33 from 24 per cent in applied,
and from 62 to 68 in academic
for the Catholic board. The pub-
lic board had 68 per cent meet
the standard in academic and
36 per cent in applied. The pro-
vincial average is 75 per cent for
academic, 34 per cent for ap-
plied.

305 less, bringing the entire system’s
total to a 993 reduction, said a staff
report presented Sept. 8 to the Dur-
ham Catholic District School Board.
With the exception of consoli-
dated Oshawa schools, there is in-
creased enrolment at St. John Bosco,
St. Joseph, St. Bridget, St. Leo, St.
Jude, Brother Andre, and Mother
Teresa Catholic schools, said the re-
port. Below is a list of how many less
students each area had as of Sept. 5.

Subdivision first
approved in ’89
By Keith Gilligan
kgilligan@durhamregion.com
AJAX — A subdivision plan
first approved in 1989 was
again given the thumbs up by
Ajax councillors.
Cougs Investment first
proposed building 27 estate
homes next to Deer Creek
Golf Course.
The proposal approved by
council’s Community Affairs
and Planning Committee on
Monday has some changes
from the 1989 development.
The major one is the homes
would be hooked up to sani-
tary sewers, rather than using
septic systems.
The homes would be from
2,000 to 3,500 square feet,
said Cougs spokesman Ron
Halliday.
Homes on nearby Buggey
Lane, also built by Cougs, are
larger, ranging up to about
7,000 sq. ft.
Prior to the homes being
occupied, Cougs has to ex-
tend the Fifth Concession
easterly from about Buggey
Lane to Audley Road.
“Whatever is old is new
again. I voted on this when
it was first proposed in 1989,”
Wards 1 and 2 Regional Coun-
cillor Scott Crawford said.
Ensuring a variety of hous-
ing stock is “appropriate. It’s
in keeping with what’s around
it. It caters to the elite sec-
tor. I supported it in ’89 and
I’m happy to support it again,”
said Coun. Crawford.
The new homes would have
frontages ranging from 38 me-
tres (124.5 feet) to 85.7 metres
(281 feet), and the lots will be
almost an acre each.
The 27 lots were approved
prior to the Greenbelt Plan
being set in place by the Prov-
ince, so the homes could be
built, Ajax planner Geoff Ro-
manowski told councillors.

Enough soil and rock
to fill Rogers Centre
seven times will be
needed
By Jennifer Stone
jstone@durhamregion.com
CLARINGTON — Ontario Power
Generation will begin recruiting
in coming months to staff new
nuclear generators to be built in
Clarington.
About a quarter of the questions
answered by staff at OPG’s kiosk in
Bowmanville Mall surround that
very question: When are the jobs
coming, said Pat McNeil, OPG’s
senior vice-president of nuclear
generation development.
Mr. McNeil said the company
will start recruiting operators next
year, while some engineers will be
brought in later this year to train in
existing facilities.
That’s despite the fact the first
unit at the new site, adjacent to
the existing Darlington plant, isn’t
likely to be operational until 2018.
OPG is currently in the midst
of the environmental assessment
aimed at getting permission to
build up to four new nuclear reac-
tors on the site; the current plan is
to build two. The Province asked
OPG to begin the process. Later it
confirmed OPG would be the op-
erator which “gives us more impe-
tus to move forward,” Mr. McNeil
said.
Infrastructure Ontario is to
make a decision as to what kind
of nuclear reactor will be built in
early 2009. It’s now down to three
vendors: Areva NP, Atomic Energy
of Canada and Westinghouse.
After one is chosen, “OPG and
the vendor will work together to
finish the environmental assess-
ment,” Mr. McNeil said.
It’s anticipated approvals should
happen by early 2011, with a site
preparation licence to be issued
shortly thereafter. Site prepara-
tion should take between two and
three years; then, construction will
take between four-and-a-half and
five years, Mr. McNeil said, as he
updated Clarington council Mon-
day on the project.
To build the new reactors, it’s
expected about 12 million cubic
metres of soil and rock will have to
be removed.
“That’s about the equivalent
of filling the Rogers Centre seven
times,” Mr. McNeil said.
Now, the company is entering
into its fourth round of public con-
sultation, with sessions to be held
across Durham between Oct. 21
and Nov. 6.

Region
to hold
evening
prenatal
health fair
DURHAM — Expectant par-
ents and those who think they’ll
be expecting in the near future
can pick up pregnancy and par-
enting information at a prenatal
health fair later this month.
On Sept. 22, Durham Regional
Health Department and the Pre-
natal Coalition of Durham will
host the fair.
The event runs from 5:30 to 8
p.m. at Regional headquarters,
located at 605 Rossland Rd. E. in
Whitby. Parking and admission
are free.
“This is the first time that
this very popular event will be
held in the evening,” said public
health nurse Cathie Logan.
“We hope that this will allow
individuals who have been un-
able to attend in the past an
opportunity to visit the fair and
take in one of the many displays
and workshops offered.”
Those attending the fair will
get a chance to speak to health
professionals and community
support people and check out
displays and resources.
The info is targeted at women
in any stage of pregnancy, dads-
to-be and couples planning a
pregnancy, and new parents.
They can participate in work-
shops on breastfeeding and
what to expect the first week the
new baby is home.
There will be a focus on the
role of the partner during preg-
nancy.
Over 6.500 people have at-
tended prenatal health fairs in
Durham since they began in
2002.
To obtain prenatal resourc-
es or for more information
about the prenatal health fair,
residents can call the Durham

‘Gaffs galore abound’
To the editor:
Re: ‘Dion wants finance minister fired,’
Sept. 10 News Advertiser.
I would like to see the math explaining
the Green Shift and its proposed financial
advantage. I don’t understand it.
Gaffs galore abound: The income trust
fiasco triggering death threats to Jim Fla-
herty’s family, the misplaced words of our
finance minister suggesting that Ontario is
NOT a good place to locate a business, the
“poop” ad, tasteless to say the least, with
many more to come.
Hopefully, truth will emerge and focus
on the real issues, like the economy and
the military.
But job creation stands out. This has
been a concern for years. Having been
involved with the health-care system for
decades, I saw the results of an increase in
the availability of jobs. My phone rang off
the hook; the common thread . . . “I got a
job.”
So job creation, championed endlessly
by the Conservatives, is a solid endeavour.
The thought has not been lost on the Lib-
erals. To quote Stephane Dion in the News
Advertiser: “We’ll cut corporate taxes and
that includes small business.” Touche.
J. Gordon Neal
Whitby
I ’ve been on location for the last couple
of weeks filming exteriors for Little
Mosque on the Prairie. In Regina, to be
painfully precise. Regina is fun to say, but
not much fun to actually live in.
Don’t get me wrong, the people are lovely
and extraordinarily friendly. It’s just a cli-
matologically punishing place.
I’ve only been here, as I say, for a couple
of weeks and already I’ve seen heat that
was so still and searing even the cicadas
were leaving town, hail the size of new
potatoes, funnel clouds, wind that makes
the mistral look like a breeze and cold you
can feel down to your marrow. And this is
the nice season. Wintertime, according to
the hearty locals, is like Mars with curling
rinks. It’s one of the few places in the world
where you can die going for a coffee.
The Prairies are like that. They’re also
staggeringly beautiful. There’s a good rea-
son they call Saskatchewan the “Land of
the living Sky.”
Although in my short experience I think a
more apt licence plate motto for this prov-
ince might be “Jesus, get inside!”
But the people, as I’ve mentioned, are
remarkably friendly. A couple of weekends
ago, two male friends and I were travel-
ling up into the Qu’appelle Valley for some
fishing. Along the route, as generally hap-
pens with three men in the same vehicle,
we stopped for a pee. Men do this not so
much because we actually have to go pee,
we do it because we can... and it’s fun. Men
are secretly in love with the portability of
our bladders. Women, not so much.
And so, in the middle of hundreds of
miles of flat, windswept nowhere, we
stopped the pickup truck, wandered a safe
heterosexual distance from one another
and unzipped. This is another thing that
men seem to instinctually do. If you ever
have the opportunity to observe men
peeing in the wild -- and if you have this
opportunity on a regular basis you may
want to consider taking up a hobby or seek-
ing therapy -- there’s a curious, universally
identical ballet that gets played out.
Men will, unless they’re looking to get
beaten up, automatically and quickly take
up positions in relationship to one another
that while ensuring a modicum of privacy,
also allow them to see the other members
of the “peeing party” peripherally. There
must be some anthropological reason for
this as it occurs all over the globe.
Nomads in the Kalahari keep one wary
eye on their fellow tribesmen while they
hoist up their robes. Bushmen in New
Guinea pee with deadly blowguns in their
mouths, ever watchful for interlopers get-
ting too close. Even Armani-clad business-
men in New York, will, if at all possible,
never take the urinal directly beside anoth-
er man. It’s just not done. There’s a reason
why one almost always finds three urinals
in a Men’s Room. Rarely two. We need that
buffer zone. But I digress... badly.
So there we were, peeing on the prairie.
When we had done our business, we stood
for a moment chatting around the tailgate
of the truck. It was then that I noticed a
single vehicle approaching down the road.
It pulled up alongside us and I was aston-
ished to see the lone occupant, a woman,
roll the passenger side window down, lean
over and ask three men in the middle of
nowhere if “We needed any help?”
Like I say, the weather out here makes
you crazy.
Durham resident Neil Crone, actor-comic-
writer, saves some of his best lines for his col-
umns.
Election candidates need to provide answers to questions on economy
I t’s the economy, stupid!
That election slogan was made famous
in the 1992 U.S. presidential campaign
when contender Bill Clinton was able to
wrest the White House away from incum-
bent George H.W. Bush.
Mr. Clinton turned his country’s atten-
tion away from a Gulf War win and on to
bread and butter issues as the U.S. -- and
Canada -- was mired in that early 1990s
recession.
Fast forward to today and that phrase
could well be the important distinctive
issue in our current Canadian federal
election.
In Ontario, certainly, the economy is the
major problem with concerns over rising
unemployment due to massive job losses
in the manufacturing industry. Consider
that General Motors has more soon-to-be
ex-employees taking buyouts than it does
cumulative job cuts and the situation is
daunting.
Combine those job losses with sky-high
gas prices which are having a crippling
effect on businesses reliant on transporta-
tion and on commuters who must drive to
work and you have a difficult situation.
In Durham, the Region’s social assis-
tance caseload has exploded from 5,757
cases in January 2005 to 7,904 cases in July
2008. That’s an increase of 37 per cent in
three and a half years. And it could well
get worse.
What will the major contenders for your
vote do to improve our economic outlook?
No doubt there will be promises of
investment and tax cuts to stimulate busi-
ness growth. But which party has the best
plan for Canada’s largest province?
It’s worth paying close attention to each
party leader as campaign pledges are
presented, debated and ultimately acted
upon or ignored.
What blend of tax cuts mixed with
incentives for job creation and push for
new businesses do each of the parties
possess in their platforms? What specific
plans do they have to get Ontario working
again at the clip we’ve become accus-
tomed to from the early 1990s until this
past year or so? How will the leaders reach
out to other countries to make trade deals
which can be an advantage to our indus-
tries?
We need answers to these questions
because the future prosperity of Ontario,
and of Canada, depends on our economic
success in an increasingly globalized
economy.

Durham workers need
more hours to qualify
for EI than in other
parts of Canada
By Reka Szekely
rszekely@durhamregion.com
DURHAM — Region officials pre-
dict the number of Ontario Works
cases in Durham will continue to
rise as a slumping manufacturing
sector causes a ripple effect.
“Over the past three years, it’s
gone up somewhere in the neigh-
bourhood of 27 per cent and we’re
anticipating it’s going to increase
over the next year,” said Paul
Cloutier, director of income sup-
port for Durham Region.
In January 2005, the Region’s so-
cial assistance caseload was 5,757.
The figure includes Ontario Dis-
ability Support Payments as well
as Ontario Works and it grew to
7,904 cases by July 2008, a 37-per-
cent increase.
Between July of 2007 and July of
2008, the Region’s caseload grew
by 706, which is an almost 10-per-
cent jump.
Part of the problem, said Mr.
Cloutier, is that only about a quar-
ter of Ontarians qualify for Em-
ployment Insurance (EI) benefits
when they lose their jobs.
“When the last recession was
here in the early 90s, that was clos-
er to 70-to-75 per cent, so there’s
been a huge change to how em-
ployment insurance is structured,”
he said.
While GM workers may be cov-
ered by EI when they’re laid off, as
local residents tighten their belts,
other sectors suffer and there’s a
ripple effect in job losses.
“We start seeing things like
cleaning services, the hospitality
sector, bars, restaurants, the retail
sector, the handyman, the lawn
service, all of that becomes the
first spending they choose to stop,”
said Mr. Cloutier.
And, those are some of the sec-
tors where employees may not
have enough hours to qualify for
EI due to the part-time and con-
tract nature of the work. When that
happens, people look directly to
Ontario Works.
“The concern is there’s a signifi-
cant number of people who may
be in employment difficulty who
are coming directly to the Region
for assistance. In the past, there
was an intermediate step and now
there may not be for a lot of peo-
ple,” said Mr. Cloutier.
As it stands, the number of hours
a person has to work in a one-year
period preceding their unemploy-
ment varies from 420 to 700 hours,
depending on the regional unem-
ployment rate. Currently, in both
the Oshawa and Toronto area, a
worker would need 665 hours to
qualify. In Newfoundland and
Labrador, excluding St. John’s, a
worker would need 420 hours.
There are differences within On-
tario as well. In Windsor a worker
would need 560 hours, whereas in
Ottawa, the same worker would
need 700 hours.
While EI premiums are paid
for by all workers, even those who
may not end up qualifying for
benefits, and employers, a fifth of
social assistance payments come
from municipal property taxpay-
ers.
This year, the Region is budget-
ing $57 million for OW payments
to Durham residents, $11.4 million
of which will come from property
taxpayers, with the rest coming
from the Province. That’s higher
than last year’s $52.5 million.
Among those that do qualify for
EI, the number of people receiving
benefits jumped by 32 per cent in
June over the same time last year
in the Oshawa census metropoli-
tan area, which includes Whitby
and Clarington. It’s the highest
jump in Canada.
And, along with an increasing
demand for income support, Mr.
Cloutier expects more demand for
job search help, retraining, sub-
sidized daycare and affordable
housing.
All this means that the strug-
gling auto sector will continue to
have a ripple effect in Durham.

PICKERING — Among the festivities set
to celebrate 25 years of the Pickering Recre-
ation Complex will be an attempt to break
the world yo-yoing record.
At the celebration taking place on Satur-
day, Sept. 20, three-time Guinness World
Record holder, Fast Eddy McDonald, will
lead Pickering residents to break the world
record for the most people to consecutively
yo-yo. The City is asking for 440 participants,
and yo-yos will be provided. The last record
was 336. Mr. McDonald will also attempt to
break the record for most tricks to be per-
formed in one minute.
The attempt will take place from 12:30 to
1:30 p.m.
But, that’s not all the City has in store to
celebrate its recreation complex, and fes-
tivities will run from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. The
free events include: a Wii Fit challenge; free
afternoon swim and skate; a green outdoor
gym; live entertainment by Dan the Music
Man and Winged Wonders Bird Show; and
a drive-in movie, ‘Horton Hears a Who’,
at 7:45 p.m. in the arena parking lot at the
back of the rec complex. There will be free
demos on spinning bikes, equalizers, plyo-
metric boxes, link training, and yogalates,
and many giveaways. It’s at the rec complex,
at 1867 Valley Farm Rd.

Open is In was written by Audiologist Lila O’Neill, founder of the fi rst
Audiology Clinics to dispense hearing aids in Durham Region.
Q. What causes tinnitus?
A. The causes of tinnitus aren’t completely known and reasons can’t always be found
but do need thorough investigation. Treatment of tinnitus depends very much on the
cause.
Q. What should I do if I have tinnitus?
A. When tinnitus is caused by hearing loss, a hearing test can determine if this is
the case and whether hearing aids may help. Often hearing aids will sharpen what’s
supposed to be heard and end up drowning out or hiding the unwanted sounds.
According to PhD Audiologist, Richard Tyler (2006):
“Almost everyone would agree that hearing aids, when the patient has substantial
hearing loss, can reduce tinnitus suffering.”
Written by Audiologist, Lila O’Neill, founder of the fi rst Audiology Clinics to dispense
hearing aids in Durham Region: Ajax Pickering Audiology Clinic, Bayly Audiology
Services, Whitby Hearing Centre.
Q. What is tinnitus or ‘ringing in the ears’?
A. Tinnitus is a term derived from the Latin word tinnire,
meaning to ring. Tinnitus is a ‘subjective ringing or tingling in
the ear that can only be heard by the person experiencing it’.
Tinnitus can be described in different ways: humming, buzzing,
ringing, clicking, hissing. The noise can be constant or come in short bursts,
lasting for long periods of time or just briefl y. The noise can be loud or soft,
can change in pitch and can be heard in either one or both ears. Tinnitus can be
heard at various times, but mostly when it is quiet like when going to sleep or
early in the morning.

Foy says “We sit down and talk with them about their
health goals, whether that’s losing weight or just main-
taining a healthy lifestyle. Our program is all about
helping people achieve their own personal health
goals. Regardless of whether or not they decided to
pursue those goals with the U Weight Loss Program,

cleanse. It is a very mild cleanse that can be used
in conjunction with their current diet, and after they
have started we will follow up with them to see how
they are doing”. Our main goal is to change people’s
lives and make loosing weight easy by educating our
clients and clearing up the many nutrition myths that
interfere with them meeting their goal and maintaining
their weight loss permanently.

U Weight Loss was formulated by Dr. James Hyssen
who has been in the weight loss industry for over 20
years and is a member of the clinic’s team.
Through its employees, U Weight Loss offers up per-
sonal experiences and successes. Foy herself lost
over 50 pounds after her pregnancy by applying the 3
secrets to weight loss that the program is based on.
I’m a nutritionist because I love helping people, Foy
adds. “There is nothing more rewarding then helping
someone loose weight, get healthy and change their
lives”. When I see my clients smiling because of their
renewed confidence, coming off medications for health
conditions such as
high cholesterol
or blood pres-
sure and even
reversing their

I know we are
really changing
people’s lives!

One of the amazing aspects of group therapy
is its power to creatively move people in life-
changing directions. Part of this comes from
realizing that we’re not alone in how we feel.
Recognizing that our feelings and experiences are
similar to those of others in the group and the world
at large removes feelings of isolation, validates our
experiences, and increases our self-esteem, self-
confidence and self-worth.
Another part of the power of group work comes from
experiencing a high level of support, caring, and
encouragement. This comes about from the bonding
that occurs in a small, facilitated group. While support,
caring and encouragement are also given in one-on-
one therapy, imagine how the strength and impact
are magnified when you receive it from a group of
people!
In group sessions, people help each other. When we
help others, it increases our self-esteem, self worth,
and self confidence. So in many ways, in a facilitated
group, we get back what we give out.
In a cohesive group, members will feel a sense of be-
longing, acceptance, and validation. This safe environ-
ment allows us to take risks and develop interpersonal
skills and coping styles. This will undoubtedly
positively impact our relationships at home, at
work, in the community, wherever we are inter-
acting with others.
Another way that group thera-
py helps us grow and change
is the greater level of self-
awareness that comes when
we interact with others in the
group. We learn through get-
ting their feedback on our be-
haviour and just by watching
the impact of our behaviour
on others. This can’t occur in
one-on-one therapy. Our in-
creased self-awareness pro-
vides greater levels of insight
into our own behaviour so we begin to understand
why we do the things we do. As well as understanding
why we react the way we react to others and situa-
tions. Maybe more importantly, it helps us create posi-
tive changes in ourselves and in our lives.

(NC)-With people spending more time at work and
less time with their families, eating a healthy meal
can be challenging. Hectic schedules may include
trying to get to the gym, transporting kids to and from
school and social activities or staying late at the office,
so it’s not surprising that ordering a pizza or using a
drive-through become real temptations. With conve-
nience playing a big part in our everyday food choices,
healthy options often fall by the wayside.
“As a busy mom, I know the difference between
wanting to make a home-cooked meal and actually
having the time to do it,” said Sandi Richard, interna-
tional best-selling author and host of Fixing Dinner
on Food Network. According to Sandi, creating quick
and healthy meals, whether it’s for one person or the
entire family, is not as difficult or as time-consuming
as we think. Here are some of Sandi’s tips for creating
healthy meals in a hurry.
1. Keep your pantry and fridge stocked with the
essentials.
Whether it’s chicken stock, eggs, ground meat, fresh
or frozen veggies, brown rice or chicken breast, there
are certain items to which we often turn when prepar-
ing meals. Your family’s food staples may vary, but
having some of these items on hand is the first step in
being able to whip up a healthy meal in minutes.
2. Take shortcuts.
Let’s face it; most people don’t have time to prepare
homemade meals from scratch every day. Preparing
a meal for your family at the end of a long day doesn’t
have to be a chore. From pre-washed and pre-cut
veggies, to shredded cheese or varieties of sauce in
a jar, there is a myriad of shortcuts you can take to cut
down on prep time and pull together a meal at home
without sacrificing taste or nutrition.
3. Get steamy with it.
Steam cooking is a quick and easy method for creat-
ing fresh and healthy meals. Truly one of the healthiest
ways to cook, steaming also enhances the disease-
fighting properties in vegetables by increasing their
antioxidants. And now you can steam cook foods even
in your microwave with easy-to-use steam cooking
bags such as Ziploc Zip `n Steam. “I’m always look-
ing for helpful ways to get families back to the dinner
table, and Ziploc Zip `n Steam cooking bags are
definitely one of my favourite finds,” said Sandi. “They
combine nutrition benefits of steam cooking with the
convenience of your microwave. And what I love most
about these bags is that they don’t limit your culinary
creativity -- I can change up the sauce or spice, and
use a variety fresh or frozen vegetables, seafood or
chicken to create healthy and delicious meals.”
And if you want to explore the endless possibilities of
what you can steam in a bag, check out www.ziploc.
ca. There you will find tasty, health-conscious recipes
for everything from green beans with sundried toma-
toes and almonds (ready in 2 minutes) and Tuscan
chicken cannellini (7 minutes), to garlic lemon cod
(4 minutes) and a southwestern omelet wrap (2 1/2
minutes).”

Two Durham men
hope to find former
Pickering teammates
for soccer reunion
By Al Rivett
arivett@durhamregion.com
PICKERING — Members of a
long-defunct recreational soccer
team want to get together and remi-
nisce one last time.
That’s why Rudy Prokop, 80, and
friend Trevor Bishop, 73, want to
get in touch with members of the
Pickering Oldtimers Soccer (POTS)
team for a reunion of the 70s league
they hope will happen this year. The
reunion, however, hinges upon re-
sponses from some of the players
they’ve long ago lost touch with.
“Everyone we’ve called say they’re
all for it. The others have spread to
all different places. This way maybe
they’ll read about it and we can get
together. Because soon it will be fini-
to,” said Prokop, pointing out that the
ravages of time may make a reunion
a moot point.
The non-competitive Pickering
Oldtimers Soccer was started back
in 1970 by coaches and the parents
of players in the then-fledgling Bay
Ridges Soccer Club, which operated
at just one field behind Holy Re-
deemer Catholic School on Liver-
pool Road South at that time.
The POTS team was formed with
12 over-35 players and played weekly
informal, recreational games against
teams from West Rouge and Club
Loreley in Oshawa. Team founders
included Prokop and Bishop, along
with Henry Driesschen, Peter Hup-
felt, Bill Bain, Alan Black, the late
Derek Smart, Brett Bain and Jim
Gurr.
“We played basically every team
we could play, which were our own
age,” said Bishop, who now resides
in Uxbridge.
By the mid-70s the association ex-
panded and played games each Sun-
day at Centennial Park in Pickering.
There were two Pickering teams by
then -- an over-35 squad and an
under-35 team. There was even a
Cup furnished by Alex Robertson, an
area newspaper publisher and town
councillor, for a league tournament.
Prokop recalled it was always a
treat to play the Club Loreley team,
made up of Oshawa residents of
German heritage. They would bring
either cider or beer to the games,
to be enjoyed at the conclusion of
play.
The team, however, disbanded in
the late 70s for varying reasons, said
Prokop. For him, a change in jobs
required that he work weekends,
which prevented him from playing
soccer. For Bishop, he blew out a
knee in a game and retired thereaf-
ter. Nearly 40 years later, both Pro-
kop and Bishop are looking forward
to gathering together their soccer
teammates for one last hurrah.
Call Prokop at 905-839-3128 or
Bishop at 905-852-6580.

Getting the old gang together one last time
Too close for comfort for Lady Cougars
Notre Dame gets past
surprising Pine Ridge
Pumas on the court
By Al Rivett
arivett@durhamregion.com
AJAX — The Pine Ridge Second-
ary School Pumas threw a definite
scare into the defending Durham
Region champion Notre Dame Cath-
olic Secondary School Lady Cougars
Wednesday afternoon.
Coming off a five-game sweep of
the Limestone City Tip-Off Tour-
nament in Kingston last weekend,
the Lady Cougars seemed primed
to open their Lake Ontario Second-
ary School Athletics (LOSSA) senior
girls’ regular season with a bang
against the Pumas on home court.
Pine Ridge, however, wouldn’t
play along.
Playing tough, pressure defence,
the Pine Ridge squad gave the
champs all they could handle, al-
though the Lady Cougars were able
to close out the game with a strong
run in the final quarter for a 34-25
victory to start the season.
Don’t get the impression Notre
Dame coach Rose Booker was par-
ticularly enthused with the play of
her team; far from it.
“We couldn’t seem to hit a shot.
I think it was nerves,” noted Booker
following the contest. “(Pine Ridge)
is tall, good and fast and they could
shoot. We looked tired and flat. I
knew Pine Ridge was going to be
strong and LOSSA West is strong,
too. We played some strong teams
in Kingston, so it says a lot about
LOSSA this year. Games in the west
are going to be a battle.
“I thought we would come to-
gether a bit better than we did. We
seemed very nervous.”
For his part, Pumas’ coach Cam
Nekkers was more than pleased with
his squad’s effort against a strong
Notre Dame Club. More impres-
sive was the fact his team has had
very little court time together, had
small numbers of players show up
for practises and had no pre-season
games to speak of.
“We’ve only been practising the
last week-and-a-half. We hadn’t
played a game and we had only nine
players show up for tryouts and we
had no offensive scheme. Basical-
ly, we were so ill-prepared for this
game.”
He complimented his players for
leaving it all on the floor and nearly
knocking off Notre Dame on their
home court.
“I feel great about the game. Notre
Dame is one of the top teams in
the area. We played hard. Hopefully
we’ll get to see Notre Dame again
in the playoffs where anything can
happen,” said Nekkers.
Notre Dame led 10-4 in the first
quarter in a ragged display by both
teams, with each committing nu-
merous turnovers and missing nu-
merous layups in the early going.
The Lady Cougars maintained
their six-point advantage to lead
17-11 at half time, with the Pumas
getting to within a point with 3:28
remaining, only to see Notre Dame
close out the half on a 6-1 run.
The Pumas continued to play well
into the third quarter, going on a 5-0
run to tie the game at 19-19 with 3:20
remaining. A full timeout by Notre
Dame, however, seemed to get the
Lady Cougars back into their offence
as they closed the quarter strongly to
lead 27-19.
A three-pointer by Notre Dame’s
Brianna Thomas with 5:53 left in the
fourth quarter gave the Lady Cou-
gars a 30-22 lead and seemed to let
the air out of the Pine Ridge tires as
the Ajax squad cruised through the
remainder of the quarter.
Nicholle McKenzie scored a
game-high 14 for the Lady Cougars,
followed by Lindsay Panchan with
seven.
Whitney Ellenor had 11 for the
Pumas.
Notre Dame Lady Cougars’ Shanica Baker gets squeezed between Pine Ridge Pumas’ Melissa Conroy (21) and Whitney
Ellenor (12) during Lake Ontario Secondary School Athletics (LOSSA) ‘AAAA’ senior girls’ basketball action at Notre
Dame on Wednesday afternoon. The Lady Cougars hung tough for a 34-25 win over a surprising Pumas squad.

Raiders perfect in pocketing
own Early Bird championship
Ajax-Pickering
minor midgets edge
Burlington in final
DURHAM — The Ajax-
Pickering Raiders minor midget
‘AAA’ rep hockey team completed
a perfect weekend with a 2-1 vic-
tory over Burlington in the cham-
pionship game of its own tourna-
ment on Sunday.
The Ajax-Pickering minor
midgets emerged victorious in
the 10-team Ajax-Pickering Raid-
ers Early Bird Tournament, com-
piling a perfect 6-0 record.
In the championship game
against Burlington, the Raiders’
Kal Alli broke a scoreless tie in
the second period on a pass from
Stephen Deeg and Mike Wilkins.
Cameron McDavid increased the
lead with an outstanding short-
handed goal with six minutes to
play. Burlington scored its own
short-handed goal to narrow the
margin, but the Raiders shut the
door the rest of the way for the
win.
McDavid was selected as the
game’s most valuable player.
The Raiders’ goaltending tan-
dem of Connor Wilkinson and
Kristoff Lyons was outstanding
in net for the weekend, allowing
only three goals against in the six
games, recording three shutouts,
two by Wilkinson and 1 by Lyons.
The outstanding work of the
defensive corps of James Doer-
ing, Corey Helliwell, Ryan Logan,
Eric Rizzo, Brennan Serville and
Mike Wilkins also contributed to
the stingy goals against average.
Strong penalty killing by Jordan
Minos, Michael Kelly and Ryan
Kerr was another factor in the
title win.
In the semifinal, the Raid-
ers met their local rivals Whitby
Wildcats. The Raiders trailed 1-
0 entering the third period but
stormed back to win 3-1. Alli
scored the game winner with an
assist to Helliwell. Stephen Deeg,
from Corrado Cammisuli, and
Ryan Logan got the Raiders on
the board. Alex Chiakalis, from
Alex Fortin and McDavid, added
an empty-net goal to clinch the
victory.
The Raiders opened the tour-
nament with a 3-1 victory over
Barrie. McDavid, Wilkins and
Chiakalis scored, with assists
going to Jake Bannister with two
and singles to Logan, Chiakalis
and Cammisuli.
In Game 2, Wilkinson turned
aside all shots for a 2-0 shutout
win over Eastern Ontario. Bannis-
ter produced a two-point game
(a goal and an assist). Chiakalis
notched the other goal, with as-
sists to Serville and McDavid.
In their next round-robin tilt,
the Raiders scored a narrow 1-
0 win over Huron-Perth. Lyons
recorded the shutout. McDavid’s
marker, from Cammisuli and
Chiakalis, was all the Raiders
needed for the victory.
The Raiders closed out round-
robin play with a 1-0 victory over
Windsor. Wilkinson recorded his
second shutout of the tourna-
ment. Fortin, from Alli, provided
the margin of victory.
