Pickering’s new CAO takes office TONY PREVEDEL NOW TOP BUREAUCRAT IN THE CITY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- After 14 years of the City of Pickering being run under the watchful eye of Tom Quinn, a new chief administrative officer is in town. Tony Prevedel, a civil engineer, has quickly climbed up the ladder to reach the City’s top job. On June 1, Mr. Prevedel traded in the title of Pickering’s division head of facilities opera- tions for the big role of CAO. And although he knows long hours, mediating debates and making important decisions make up just part of his job, he’s excited for his new post.

The Pickering woman suffered four heart attacks on Oct. 28 of last year, including one in an ambulance on Hwy. 401, on the way to Rouge Valley Centenary Hospital. Ms. Robinson ‘flatlined’ during the heart attack on the highway, meaning the two paramedics and a nurse had to use a defi- brillator to revive her. Ms. Robinson said thank you to Durham EMS paramedics Diane Bradshaw and Jodi Dochman during the Survivor Day 2010 at the Deer Creek Golf and Banquet Facility in Ajax on Monday. It’s a partnership of the Cardiac Safe Community Program and the Central East Prehospital Care Program. It offers a chance for those who suffered a heart attack to meet the emergency service per- sonnel who helped save their lives, includ- ing private citizens, paramedics, firefight- ers, police officers and 911 dispatchers. The program recognizes those involved in saving a life prior to the patient reaching hospital. Fire services from across Durham Region, along with Durham EMS and police, had representatives at the ceremony, attended by about 500 people. One survivor, Franco Fontana, celebrated his 77th birthday on Monday. Each of the emergency service personnel and citizens who helped received ‘Light- ning Bolt’ pins, to symbolize the impor- tance of defibrillators in saving heart attack victims. “I can’t thank them enough,” Ms. Robin- son said in an interview of Ms. Bradshaw and Ms. Dochman. When she met them during the ceremo- ny, Ms. Robinson said, “Oh no” when the paramedics offered to shake her hand. Ms. Robinson hugged them both, say- ing, “Thank you so much. I love you guys. Thank you. “I’m very lucky to be alive. It’s so excel- lent to be here,” she said. Ms. Robinson was at home when she began having chest pains. Her daughter Karlie came home at the same time and remembered the TV commercials about the signs of a heart attack. “I said she had to get to the hospital. I drove 110 (kilometres an hour) on Bayly Street,” said Karlie, 19. “She’s a single parent and she’s all I have,” an emotional Karlie said. “It’s a very good day for me. She can see the people who saved her life.” Ms. Bradshaw, a paramedic for 21 years, said being recognized is special. “It’s our job and it’s nice to be recognized in a positive way,” Ms. Bradshaw said. On the trip from Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering to the Centenary site, where Ms. Robinson was to undergo an angioplasty, she “went into cardiac arrest,” Ms. Brad- shaw said. Ms. Dochman and the nurse began performing CPR and were going to use the defibrillator. In order to use the defibrillator on the highway, the paramedics had to pull over to the side of the road. “We managed to get her heart going again.” The day was also important for Ms. Brad- shaw because paramedics don’t often hear what’s happened to a patient after taking them to a hospital. Ms. Dochman agreed, saying, “It feels absolutely fantastic to see the survivors of cardiac arrest. “It’s unique. It’s a step beyond our day- to-day. When we see them, they’re hover- ing on the brink of death,” she said. She dismissed talk of being a hero, say- ing, “We’re fortunate to make a difference in people’s lives.” Dr. Rudy Vandersluis, chairman of the medical advisory board for the Central East Prehospital Care Program, said there were 34 survivors over the past year, “and those were only the ones we were able to identify.” In 2009, there were 270 “out-of-hospital cardiac arrests,” he said. Of those, 97 were treated with defibrilla- tors, Dr. Vandersluis said.

Police say it was about 10 p.m. on Thurs- day, June 3 when two men, one armed with a knife, and both with faces covered, went into the Wendy’s on Bayly Street and asked for the manager. They allegedly jumped the counter and went into the back of the restaurant where the store manager and two other male employees were accosted. Money from the safe was demanded. The two ran from the rear entrance of the store, say police. Both men are described as black, and wearing hooded sweatshirts with bandan- as over their faces. The first is said to be about six feet tall with a medium build. He’s believed to be 18 to 19 years old. The second was about five feet, seven inches. He was armed with a knife.

POLICE Police seek suspects in Ajax armed robbery DURHAM -- Durham Region officials have issued a warning about someone posing as a regional health inspector, apparently as part of a scam to obtain information from restaurant owners. The alert was issued after an incident Thursday in which a suspect contact- ed a Durham restaurant by phone and attempted to schedule an inspection. The call was similar to recent incidents in Halton Region and Toronto, in which the caller attempted to obtain very spe- cific business and personal informa- tion. Durham health inspectors carry photo identification they will produce upon request. The Region is warning business owners not to divulge information to callers. Anyone who receives a suspicious call is asked to call Durham police at 905- 579-1520.

Scott Milne, 36, was sentenced by Ontario Court Justice Kofi Barnes to two years less a day, to be served in the community, after pleading guilty to five counts of trafficking in illegal substances. He’s also been ordered to repay $8,700 used by an undercover Durham police officer used to make drug purchases dur- ing a two-month investigation by the Drug Enforcement Unit in 2007. The sentence was a letdown for DEU Detective Cyril Gillis, who noted the large quantities of drugs, including ste- roids, cocaine, and GHB that Mr. Milne sold during the investigation. The Crown had sought a jail sentence for Mr. Milne, identified as the central player in the trafficking operation. “I’m disappointed,” he said. “We put a lot of resources into this investigation. “The case against (Mr. Milne) was very strong,” Det. Gillis said. “Our undercov- er officer was purchasing directly from him.” The DEU launched its investiga- tion in February of 2007 after receiving tips about drug trafficking at a gym in Pickering. An undercover officer began attending the fitness club and soon became familiar with Mr. Milne, at the time a professional body builder and the nutritionist at the gym, and was soon buying steroids and GHB. GHB, a pow- erful depressant, is commonly known as the date rape drug; it’s also used by gym rats as a muscle relaxant after strenuous workouts. Over time the undercover cop began buying cocaine from Mr. Milne, pur- chasing up to three ounces at a time. Mr. Milne supplied the officer with seven ounces of cocaine altogether. He pleaded guilty to five counts of traf- ficking. Others caught up in the sweep have also pleaded guilty and received terms of house arrest. COURTS House arrest for body builder in Pickering trafficking bust PICKERING -- Emergency personnel are on the scene of an accident that saw a pedes- trian struck on Whites Road in Pickering Tuesday afternoon. The victim, an 18-year-old girl, was awake but in significant pain, Durham police said. Police and paramedics were called to Whites Road at Strouds Lane just after 1:30 p.m. after the girl was struck in the northbound lanes of Whites Road, Sgt. Nancy van Rooy said. The incident occurred in the vicinity of Dunbar- ton High School. Early reports indicated a fight had broken out following the accident.

All content copyright WE THINK... email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com Editorial Opinions ROAD SAFETY Speeding trucks imperil other motorists To the editor: On June 1 my parents were travelling along Taunton Road, heading to Ajax. They stopped at the lights at Lakeridge Road. The light turned green and my father was about to put his foot on the gas pedal when he happened to look north and see a dump truck flying down Lakeridge Road, honking his horn because he couldn’t stop at the red light. If my dad had proceeded through the intersection he would have been hit and killed. My mother and father were horri- fied when they realized what could have happened. If there was a car stopped at that light the truck would have smashed right into the back of it. Why do these trucks have to go so fast coming down Lakeridge? I have seen these trucks many times doing this; if it was me or my husband driving like that the police would have us pulled over in no time. Why don’t the police go after these dump trucks? No wonder there are so many accidents at that intersection. Something has to be done to stop this; there is no reason for this kind of driving from these guys. Slow down! Linda McDonnell Whitby P OLITICS Government should listen, but who am I kidding? To the editor: So, MPs and senators seem to think the public doesn’t need to know where they spend $500 million. The public should not question the prime minister on the $1.1 billion price tag for security for the G8 and G20 summits. The provincial government can lose $1 billion on E-health. Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corpora- tion management can spend our money on personal enjoyment. I don’t know anyone who wants the incinerator but we are getting it. If you think that democracy is alive and well you are sadly mistaken. There is no accountability. Whatever happened to politicians doing what the public wants? Remember, any public servant works for the taxpayer. If government officials performed their jobs this way in the private sector, they would be fired. We’re sick and tired of taxes going up and governments wasting our money. The taxpayer is running out of money and patience. I hope these politicians are listening. Who am I kidding? Nicholas Grebenc Courtice CELLPHONES There are many distractions for motorists To the editor: Re: ‘Noisy kids equally distracting while driving’, letter to the editor, June 2 issue. Letter writer Debbie Harlow is asking what the difference is between her children crying or talking to her when she’s driving and talking on the cellphone or listening to loud music. It sounds like this woman is trying to say if she can drive her car with loud dis- tracting children in it she should be able to legally talk on her phone as well. To this woman (and those who agree with her) I say, “If your children are distracting you from driving please pull over to the side of the road and deal with them before it’s too late,” before a tragic accident occurs that might not only take your life and theirs but mine and the lives of my children too. Like it or not, studies have shown cell- phone use while driving increases acci- dents and the law has been passed for your safety and others. Do you also argue the law against drunk driving? Many people have said “But I can deal with it” before getting behind the wheel after drinking only to end up in an accident, often killing themselves and oth- ers. Studies have also shown these other activities while driving increase accidents: applying makeup, reading, shaving, eating, writing, reaching for articles on the floor or back seat, just to name a few. There is no law governing you from these activities while driving, true, and people do it all the time but really folks does it make common sense? Please motorists: think before and while you drive. Kathleen McCabe Courtice durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 9, 20106 AP Imagine the thrill of meeting your own personal guardian angel. So it was last week for a group of heart attack survivors in Durham Region who were brought together with the men and women who provided emergency care and, quite literally, saved their lives. The unique event allowed the cardiac patients to meet and mingle with paramedics and other first responders in a celebratory setting, far from the chaotic fearful cardiac episodes that could have claimed their lives. There was Pickering resident Rose Rob- inson, who suffered four heart attacks in one day last year and whose heart stopped beating en route to hospital. There was Franco Fontana, who was lucky enough to celebrate his 77th birthday last week after medical intervention by emergency servic- es personnel. Each of these Durham Region residents were there to celebrate as a direct result of Durham’s highly trained and highly responsive emergency medical specialists. Their efforts underscore the highly suc- cessful and efficient emergency response system that exists in Durham Region. According to Dr. Rudy Vandersluis, chair- man of the medical advisory board for the Central East Prehospital Care Program, there were 34 cardiac survivors over the past year, a direct result of the early and expert intervention from Durham Region first responders. Their efforts are bolstered by the fact that easy-to-use on-site defibril- lators are in place in a growing number of sports and public facilities. But the experiences of these lucky Dur- ham residents also reinforce the impor- tance of awareness. Heart attack symptoms are not to be trifled with. If you, or someone you love, is experiencing squeezing pressure in the chest, or pain radiating to the shoul- der, neck or arms, lightheadedness, nausea or shortness of breath, your best recourse is to call 911. New medical therapies and technolo- gies provide the best chance of success with early intervention. Rose Robinson and Franco Fontana were lucky enough to have their symptoms treated in a timely fashion by experts working on their behalf in Dur- ham Region. With a bit of good fortune, quick medical attention and expert person- nel on their side, they were able to stand up and personally thank the people responsi- ble. That’s an amazing thing. There’s something special about a job well done. It’s especially rewarding when a job well done is a life well saved. -- Metroland Durham Region Media Group Hearts go out to heroic emergency workers in Durham 7 P Tell us one thing that few people know about you...

It’s ludicrous. It’s also, I fear, only the tip of a very expensive iceberg. You have to know these guys are going five-star all the way. No take-out mac and cheese for these boys and no Comfort Inns. I’d buy shares in Hollandaise sauce, Kobe beef and Dom Perignon if I had the money. After all, a fella works up a mighty big appetite carving up the earth’s resources, destroying the environment and crapping on the have-nots. That’s not work for the faint of heart. My wife made an excellent observation about all of this wanton excess. She ques- tioned why they just didn’t have the whole conference on an army base. Outside of the Pope’s sauna, could there be a more secure place? And you wouldn’t need to spend any money. The place is crawling with rifle-toting guys who are already on the national payroll. In fact, this idea has a whole whack of added bonuses. For starters, no ritzy, expensive accom- modations on the public tab. Just bunks or cots. No TV, no Internet, no mini-bar. Just scratchy wool blankets and footlock- ers. And everybody sleeps in the same hut, side by each. This has a couple of benefits. Say, for instance, Prime Minister Stephen Harper suddenly has a brainstorm in the middle of the night. All he has to do is kick the mattress of the bunk above him and French President Nicolas Sarkozy (who probably can’t sleep because the wine served with dinner was actually Kool-Aid and who is now dreamily staring at a pic- ture of his wife) will lean over the side and say something clever like “Qu’est-ce qu’il y a, Steve?” And the next thing you know, business is getting done. Right there, right then, in the middle of the night. Progress. No wait- ing for office hours, no protocol, no chain of command. Just two guys in bunks, talk- ing and staring at a photo of a hot French chick. We need to make things less like the Ritz- Carlton and more like Camp Talk-A-Lot. I can’t think of any world problems that couldn’t be solved with a rousing verse or two of Kumbaya and some spooky camp- fire stories. ‘...and they say that even today, if you listen real close, you can still hear the Taliban commander moaning across the lake!’ And talk about bonding. Any- body who’s ever been to camp knows that you could never, ever wage war against somebody you’d once made S’mores with. Those things are magic. Also, people tend to focus a whole lot bet- ter when their surroundings are Spartan. No room service or fine China here. Meals are served on silver trays and you have to line up just like everybody else. The menu is the menu. Spaghetti and beans or meat and beans. Take your pick. And let me tell you, after a week of ‘whatever and beans’ that barracks will be like a Dutch oven. Those guys will be champing at the bit to get business tended to and get the hell out. But of course all of this makes too much sense doesn’t it? The problem is that at some point in time we let elected officials think that they were somehow more important than the rest of us. We’ve all but forgotten that very impor- tant descriptor ‘public servant’. A week or two at boot camp might put things back in perspective. Durham resident Neil Crone, actor-comic-writer, saves some of his best lines for his columns. Politicians can take that job and summit NEIL CRONE Photos taken at compost give- aways are usually of folks digging into a huge steamy mound of rich, loamy soil. While driving by the location of a recent giveaway, I spotted an unusual sight: a family res- cuing the last dregs of com- post, determined to clear the parking lot with shovels and a broom and ultimately garner- ing more than a yard for their efforts. This, to me, was an example of seeing beyond the everyday; in fact, right into the next day, for the best photo of a common event. CELIA KLEMENZ / BEHIND THE LENS Reader’s question: Why should I care? One of us likes to go slow, the other fast. When Managing Editor Mike Johnston and I set out to write about his ballroom dancing lessons and my motorcycling les- sons, it all seemed so easy! Oh, the writing part was easy, that’s what we do every day. But Mike will tell you put- ting one foot in front of the other and main- taining composure while gliding across the dance floor was no easy feat. For my part, riding a motorcycle has stretched both my physical and mental limits as I now learn to ride my own bike which weighs in at nearly 550 pounds. When that sucker tips, and it has, I’m at the mercy of the nearest passing man to help me right it. I received plenty of positive feedback from readers who liked the feature, who directed me to helpful biking sites and groups, and best of all the invitation I received to take dirt bike lessons in the Ganaraska Forest. One derogatory comment came via e- mail from ‘bmcmillan’ who criticized Mike and I for wasting readers’ time with our personal stories. To answer his criticism, why write about our personal adventures? Do any of us really need an excuse to do what we love? In my case that’s telling a story. I love what I do. I’ve been doing it for 30 years. `I hope to do it for many more. Motorcycling and ballroom dancing are two extremely popular pastimes making coverage of them of high reader interest. Judging by the quality and volume of feed- back, that was a correct assumption. Telling our own stories makes Mike and I more human and I hope more approach- able when our readers call with questions, concerns or complaints about our news coverage. And I’m a big believer in leading by example. So when we ask our reporters to write about their own ‘What It’s Like’ expe- riences, for all of the above reasons, I’m fully prepared to do the same. Finally, perhaps the most important rea- son: it’s fun. -- Follow Editor-in-Chief Joanne Burghardt at twitter. com/jbnewsdurham or look her up on Facebook. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 9, 20108 P durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 9, 20109 P %JSFDU"DDFTT   (FOFSBM&ORVJSJFT  4FSWJDF%JTSVQUJPODJUZPGQJDLFSJOHDPN  5 )PVS-JOF  5PMM'SFF  55:  DVTUPNFSDBSF!DJUZPGQJDLFSJOHDPN  DJUZPGQJDLFSJOHDPN Attend Public Meetings at City Hall All meetings are open to the public.

Tuesday, June 15, 2010 at 4:00 pm With Doggie Treats for all! durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 9, 201010 AP A tough row to hoe Sowing the seeds of a farming career can be difficult, say industry experts JEFF HAYWARD jhayward@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Some young Durham residents are choosing a career in their parents’ field. Literally. Such is the case with Uxbridge Secondary School students Brigitte and Gerrit Herrema, who lend a hand at Herralea Farms on Durham Road 1 north of town and seem eager to carry on the business. The students are fourth-generation farmers in Canada and have developed an admiration for agriculture. “It’s fun, you don’t have to deal with shifts,” said Brigitte. “I want to be out in the field.” Their father, Regional Councillor Howie Herrema, is giving up his council seat at the end of this election term to tend to his farm, noting his kids are free to choose any path. “There’s a real lifestyle decision,” he said of farming, noting the hours are long. “The kids help out, make sure the chores are done.” Meanwhile, not far away from the Herremas, 29-year-old twins Chris and Craig Mustard tend Musthaven Farms, a tradition that goes back at least five generations, they said. “An office job didn’t really appeal to me,” said Craig Mustard. “To be out- side appealed to me more, you really need to enjoy what you’re doing.” The Mustards were featured in an Ontario Farm Animal Council calen- dar in 2007, which “puts a face and story to the people putting food on our tables”, said Kelly Daynard, OFAC program manager. The Barkey family near Blackstock is on the front cover of the sold-out 2010 calendar, depicting multiple generations of that family, she said. But while some farmers are deeply rooted in the practice, it remains a challenging industry, said Ms. Daynard. “I’m lucky enough to meet these young people determined to make a go of it,” she said, noting it’s an especially large challenge for those who enter the business from scratch. Chris Mustard agrees with that assessment. “It’s pretty tough, especially in this part of Ontario (where) land prices are pretty high,” he said, noting there is a large initial capital investment. He said those just entering the business could consider growing fruits and veggies rather than raising cattle because less acreage is required. Others have turned to agri-tourism to stay afloat, noted Ms. Daynard. “You see a lot of young farmers exploring niche markets,” she said. According to Dr. Irene Moore, associate director of academics at the Uni- versity of Guelph’s Ridgetown campus, only four per cent of the 150 new students in the campus’s agriculture program last year did not have a back- ground in farming. But the enrolment numbers are encouraging, she said. “Farming as a career choice is booming right now,” said Dr. Moore, noting the program usually sees around 80 to 100 new students. “There’s a lot of theory as well as hands-on,” she said of the program, not- ing students learn tools such as computer applications and business man- agement. Tapping into technology “is a good way (for young farmers) to help their parents,” she said. Brigitte and Gerrit are both eyeing programs through Guelph University, looking to study animal sciences and welding respectively. “I like to work with equipment, I like to work with my hands,” said Gerrit. According to the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, Ontario had 57,000 farms at the time of the 2006 census, with the average age of farmers at 53. The OFA also stated the agri-food industry provided 718,000 jobs in Ontario in 2008, 10.7 percent of Ontario’s employment. CELIA KLEMENZ/METROLAND UXBRIDGE -- Curious Holstein cows at Musthaven Farm.

DURHAM -- A repatriation ceremony for the most recent solider to die in Afganistan will take place Wednesday afternoon. Sgt. Martin Goudreault was looking for a stock- pile of insurgent weapons when an improvised explosive device (IED) went off at 6:30 a.m. Sun- day near the village of Nakhonay, about 15 kms southwest of Kandahar. The 35-year-old soldier was from Sudbury. The repatriation process for Sgt. Goudreault will come through Durham today, June 9, at about 3:30 p.m. Sgt. Goudreault, who was on his third tour in Afghanistan, was a 15-year veteran of the Cana- dian Forces. He was a member of 1 Combat Engi- neer Regiment based at Canadian Forces Base Edmonton, serving with the 1st Battalion of the Royal Canadian Regiment Battle Group. This death comes less than two weeks after Trooper Larry Rudd of Brantford was killed by an IED in the same area.

JASON LIEBREGTS / METROLAND Pickering hall owner among several to express opposition AJAX -- The Town’s approval of a new bingo hall is delayed while an investigation is conducted into whether proper notice was given for a public meet- ing on the subject. The public meeting was held on May 17 and the community affairs and planning committee approved the opening of a new bingo hall in south Ajax in the Discovery Bay Plaza on Westney Road South, which is anchored by a Giant Tiger outlet. At the meeting several charities which conduct bingos in existing halls, as well as the owner of Delta Bingo in Pickering, expressed opposition to the hall. Council was set to approve the new Ajax hall at its meeting on May 25, but Mayor Steve Parish said the issue had to be deferred until the Town investigated as to whether the plaza property owner had given proper public notice of the meeting. There were several people set to speak on the issue and Mayor Parish suggested they may want to wait until the matter is settled and invited them to leave their contact information. “When a date is fixed for this matter to come back, you will be notified,” he said. Clerk Martin de Rond said he expected the issue would be back on June 14. TOWN HALL Ajax bingo hall approval delayed over sufficient notice durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • June 9, 201014 P “I like to get things done,” said Mr. Preve- del, a husband and father of four, in his new office. “If I grab onto something, I’ll think outside the box, I’ll get it done one way or another.” Mr. Prevedel took a job with the City in 2008 after leaving the Town of Whitby, where he was the director of public works. Before that, he was the director of trans- portation and construction and the man- ager of engineering planning at the Region of Durham. Mr. Prevedel’s well-rounded experience in the private sector and both the munici- pal and regional levels of government, is partly why council and outgoing CAO Tom Quinn chose Mr. Prevedel for the job. He also has a wealth of international experience. In 1980, he moved to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and worked on a number of civil engineering projects in the Middle East. This included the construction of a major 400-kilometre highway on the bor- der between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait. He later went to Cyprus with a private con- sulting company and managed an office of architects and engineers working on proj- ects throughout the Middle East. “You have to have a really good base of the operation,” said Mr. Quinn, who offi- cially retired after 14 years as CAO, and a total of 40 years working for Pickering. He will act as a consultant to Mr. Prevedel until the end of the year. It was important to Mr. Quinn that he feel comfortable with his replacement. “I have 40 years of my life here,” he said. “I don’t wish to see it fail.” He added Mr. Prevedel is well-liked by staff and council, an important part of the job. Mr. Prevedel noted City staff works well together, and he respects each member of council. “They’re an interesting bunch,” he said. “They each have their opinions. They’re all Type A. I get along with each of them indi- vidually. They’ve all been supportive.” Mr. Prevedel doesn’t believe in compla- cency. For example, he said Pickering has a great customer service department, but that doesn’t put an end to improving the important City service. “That’s something we want to keep improving,” he said. As for Pickering itself, with Duffin Heights and Seaton on the horizon, it’s impor- tant Pickering ensure they’re the sustain- able neighbourhoods Pickering has always wanted. “If we manage this properly, we could one day have a really great growth spurt,” Mr. Prevedel said. Internally, the City will have to improve its internal strategy and begin planning for future retirements, he said. After one week on the job, Mr. Prevedel is quickly getting up to speed with the big Pickering issues, and on Monday -- or early Tuesday morning -- he came out of his first planning and development meeting with council without a scratch.

Ajax 905.683.6660 • Pickering 905.420.3141 Education ADVERTISING FEATURE The brain doesn’t have an off switch. Kids are always learning—even while sleeping, which is when the brain processes and stores the informa- tion that was learned throughout the day. That’s why, cognitively speaking, it doesn’t make sense for kids to take a complete break from learning over the summer. The idea of summer learning is not a new con- cept. Since the 1970s, researchers at Johns Hopkins University have been studying the fact that students lose academic ground over the summer. “Summer learning becomes more important to students with every grade, “says Tom Hawks, Centre Director of Oxford Learning in Ajax and Pickering. “Higher education is becoming increas- ingly competitive—students don’t have time to waste in the quest for better grades and summer is the best time to make improvements.” And yet, every summer, students who don’t engage in some form of learning lose academic momentum and neural connections that they had developed over the school year. By not maintaining an academic routine that stimulates cognitive functioning, students lose their learning momentum. According to the research, students who do not engage in academic activities over the summer break are statistically and consistently more likely start the new school year behind. They are also more likely to perform more poor- ly on standardized testing, even on tests that they may have already taken. These are the facts: • On average, students lose approximately 2.6 months of grade-level equivalency in math skills during the summer months. • Teachers typically spend between 4 to 6 weeks re-teaching material that students have forgotten over the summer. • Students spend an average of 60 days not engaging in any sort of mental activity. According to Hawks the solution to preventing summer learning loss is as simple as engaging in some form of academically challenging activity for a few hours a week. While there are plenty of at-home activities that can help children continue to learn, the best way to ensure that grades don’t drop over the summer is to take an academic class that maintains learning momentum. “Students don’t have to give up their summer,” says Hawks “it’s been proven that as little as two to three hours a week is all that kids need to avoid summer learning losses.” For more information on the facts about sum- mer learning, or on any of the programs at Oxford Learning, call Oxford Learning in Ajax 905-683- 6660 or Pickering 905-420-3141, or visit www. oxfordlearning.com.

All prepared according to your preference; mild, medium or spicy. While Butter Chicken and Chicken Tikka Masala dishes are most customers’ favorites. Balti dishes offer a variety of meats marinated in lime juice and cooked with fresh garlic, onions, tomatoes and Balti seasonings. Handi style dishes offer meats marinated with garlic, gin- ger, yogurt and lime juice. Butter chicken and chicken Tikka Masala are the most favoured Handi style dishes. Favoured by emperors of the past, Mughali dishes (from which the word Mogul is derived) are created from a secret recipe from the kitchens of Mughal emperors, using rich cumin and nutmeg scented spices that deliver a mouth-wa- tering taste to the chicken. Most visitors to Mount Everest try a serving of each signa- ture dish including Tandoori Chicken - marinated in spices for 24 hours and baked in a clay tandoor oven. Side dishes include Kabulee Pullaw - rice cooked with cashews, sliced almonds, raisins and carrots. Appetizers include the best Sa- mosas in the area and a spicy Mulligatawny soup that clears the sinuses. For vegetarians, Mr. Singh has created a soya fi ber dish cooked with onions, garlic, ginger, tomatoes and garnished with coriander. Other dishes created exclusively by Mr. Singh include Paneer Tikka Masala, Tak Ta ka Paneer and Subjie Naurangabadai. Another Mr. Singh original is the ap- petizer Tomato Coconut soup. Many competitors have tried to copy it but no one has been able to duplicate it. As mentioned earlier, Mount Everest is a family affair with Mrs. Singh helping in the kitchen and serving while daughter Amanpreet welcomes guests when she’s not at uni- versity.

Classified a Double-A school but moving up a class to Triple-A, DO’C put an exclamation point on their fine season, blanking Father Bressani from the York Region 3-0 in the gold medal game to win the provincial championship. “My guys were ready,” said head coach Shaun Griffith of his team’s preparation leading into the OFSAA championships. “We were doing two-a-day practices, seven a.m. conditioning practices and then tactical stuff after school. The boys were more than ready.” In pool play, DO’C registered shutout victories over St. Martin 1- 0 and St. Mary 2-0, but were edged 2-1 by Upper Canada. Moving on to the playoff round, the team ran the table with three victories in a row, beating Northern 2-1 in the quarterfinals and Catholic Cen- tral 1-0 in the semifinals on pen- alty kicks. Keeper Cory Antonuc- ci came up big in the shootout, stopping a pair of shots to help his team advance. When it came time for the final, there was no question DO’C was going to win gold. “Once we won the semis, my guys weren’t going to settle for anything but the win,” said Griffith. “The intensity they came out with. They were intense for the whole match. The full 60 min- utes of the match and they did not let down. “It’s an amazing accomplish- ment for them.” Midfielder Emmett O’Connor was named tournament MVP. Appearing at OFSAA has become something of a habit for DO’C, who competed at the Dou- ble-A level in 2007 and 2008, win- ning silver and bronze respective- ly. Last year they made the jump all the way up to the Quad-A level, advancing to the quarterfinals before getting eliminated. Next year, with a number of starters expected to return, Griffith expects to stay in Triple-A to defend the title. A couple of other teams were also busy representing the area at OFSAA. In girls’ Quad-A soccer, Pickering High School finished third in pool play and did not advance to the playoff round. Pickering beat Waterdown 1-0, but lost to Grand River 2-1 and Holy Trinity 3-1 at the championships in Hamilton. Also competing in Hamilton were Dunbarton in the Quad-A boys’ soccer championships. The Pickering school had a big 5-1 win over Sir Robert Borden, but losses of 1-0 to St. Theresa of Lisieux and 1-0 to St. Michael’s College pre- vented them from advancing out of pool play. DURHAM -- Pickering High School will have to make room in the rafters for a couple of more OFSAA track and field champion- ship banners. The Ajax school added banners nine and 10 to the track and field program after capturing the girls’ and boys’ overall title. It marked the first time in OFSAA history that a school has won both champi- onship titles in consecutive years, with Pickering pulling off the feat in 2009. Pickering sent the largest team to the championships, with 40 athletes competing in a variety of events at the TD Waterhouse Sta- dium on the campus of the Uni- versity of Western Ontario. The meet annually brings together the top 2,500 athletes from across the province representing 700 schools. More than 20 OFSAA and inter- scholasitic records were broken. Contributing to the success of the Pickering program was Yasin Joseph who won gold in the midg- et boys’ 100m hurdles, while the midget boys’ 4x100 relay team of Kayne Winnsborrow, Rake- won Grant, Yasin Joseph, Shaun- dre Kerr-Davis, Joshua Philip and Courtney Connell also won gold. In the silver medal spot were Brandon Wilson in the senior boys’ 110m hurdles, Xavier King in the senior boys’ 3000m, Nichelle Prince in the midget girls’ 100m, the junior girls 4x100 relay team of Jordana Greenidge-Williams, Noelle Leon Palmer, Kayla Adams, Maya Daly, Nichelle Prince, Aisha Larchie, the senior boys 4x100 relay of Denver Wright, Doron Williams, Kash Farzam, Brandon Wilson, David Wilson, Izzy Ogie- va and the open girls’ 4x400 meter relay team of Maya Daly, Katherine Lawrence, Nichelle Prince, Noelle Leon-Palmer and Alex Janes. Bronze medals were collected by Nichelle Prince in the midget girls’ 200m, Noelle Leon-Palmer junior girls 200m and Maya Daly junior girls 80m hurdles and 300m hur- dles. A number of other athletes from Ajax and Pickering high schools found their way to the medal podi- um, including Rayann Chin of Dunbarton, who won gold in both the senior girls’ discus and shot put. Chanice Taylor-Chase made three trips resulting in a medal of each colour for her Notre Dame team, finishing first in the senior girls’ 110m hurdles, second in the 200m and third in the long jump. Also collecting gold was Dushawn Johnson-Powell of Notre Dame after finishing first in midget boys’ high jump, and the Notre Dame girls’ 4x400m open relay team also crossed the line in first place. Earning silver were Alexis Marsh of Notre Dame in the midget girls’ 200m, Wesley Best of J. Clarke Richardson picked up a pair of seconds in junior boys’ 100m and 200m, and Dunbarton’s Brandon Kirkup was second in junior boys’ 3000m. Emma Kikulis of Pine Ridge won a bronze in junior girls’ high jump. Pickering repeats at track and field championships OFSAA CHAMPIONSHIPS Denis O’Connor golden on the pitch MARK CRIPPS / METROLAND HAMILTON -- Madeline Iozzi, from Pickering High School, tried to control the ball in front of a player from Grand River Collegiate during OFSAA girls’ soccer play. Pickering lost 2-1 to the Kitchener school. Ajax and Pickering schools were busy at OFSAA soccer. Once we won the semis, my guys weren’t going to settle for anything but the win.

Along the way to the Elite championship title, the Impact did not allow a single goal against. On a cold Saturday morn- ing, Ajax defeated the host Oshawa Kicks team 3-0 with Jordan Smalling recording two goals and Jordan Har- die the other. Devin Smith recorded the shutout. The Impact dominated play in the next game against North Mississauga A, com- ing away with a 2-0 victory. The stifling defence of Adri- an Martini, Claude Griffith, Dalton Clark and Maarten Schyvenaars barely allowed any shots on net. Darryn Commissiong and Gabe Mortimer supplied all the offence that Impact needed to record the win. Game 3 saw Impact defeat a tough Erin Mills A squad 1-0. Constant pressure was applied throughout the game with several clearanc- es off the goal line by Erin Mills. Smalling netted the only Impact goal on a great pass by Commissiong. With Impact and Wexford Shockwave already in the finals, Game 4 ended in a 0-0 draw, setting the stage for the final. Cameron Palmer started off the scoring with a high hard drive into the corner of the net and Impact were off and running. Schyvenaars ham- mered home a long rebound and Hardie rounded out the scoring for a 3-0 Ajax Impact victory. Once again Smith record- ed the shutout. Impact team members are Devin Smith, Adrian Martini, Nick Sims, Claude Griffith, Maarten Schyvenaars, Austin Werner, Dalton Clark, Cam- eron Palmer, Jordan Hardie, Darryn Commissiong, Aus- tin Coelho, Nathaniel Sadler, Gabriel Mortimer, Jevon Alleyne-Nicholson and Jor- dan Smalling.

Rui Coelho is the trainer and Karen Wer- ner the manager, while the team is supported by Gold- Leaf Construction, State Farm Insurance, Cobra Float Service Inc, Island Mix Res- taurant, Bell, Contact Distri- bution Ltd, MC Integrated and Thrifty Mechanic Shop.

Love Always: Mom, Dad and Michelle ❁❁❁Margaret James❁❁❁ In Loving memory of Margaret James who passed away June 6, 2009 We often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep. And take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon our cheek. The years we had with you Are worth their weight in gold, The joy and laughter that you gave Are ours to have and hold. Remembering you is easy We do it every day, But missing you is a heartache That never goes away. We hold you close within our hearts And there you will remain, To walk us throughout our life Until we meet again. A wife, mother and grandma, So loving and so kind, Such wonderful memories she left behind. Her thoughful smile and caring way Will remain in our hearts forever and a day.
