Municipal law enforcement officer Brad Suckling stood by a sign warning boaters to stay under 10km/h while in Frenchman’s Bay. Baywatch moves into Pickering New program controls speeders in Frenchman’s Bay KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- After receiving a flood of com- plaints about speeding boaters in and around Frenchman’s Bay, Pickering has implemented its Baywatch program. No, residents won’t see the sculpted and tanned bodies of Pamela Anderson or David Hasselhoff running in red swimsuits up and down the beach. But they may notice a number of signs and buoys meant to slow down boaters. The City’s Baywatch program was initiated by Pickering bylaw officer Brad Suckling, also a member of the Pickering Auxiliary Rescue Association. Over the past year, the City has received more and more complaints about speeding boaters in Frenchman’s Bay. Mr. Suckling said jet and water skiers have been known to go 20 km/h to 50 km/h in the area that’s become a popular destination for tourists, families, hikers, bikers and boaters.

That’s how Ontario’s Attorney General described using funds seized from criminals to bank- roll the Durham Regional Police service’s ongoing crime-fighting efforts. Chris Bentley was in Whitby Wednesday to deliver more than $207,000 to the local force, money that will be used to upgrade e-crimes efforts. The money represents some of the $13 million recovered under the Province’s Civil Remedies Act, which allows the courts to order forfeiture of proceeds of crime. “I call it our Robin Hood leg- islation,” Mr. Bentley said of the law, enacted in 2003. “It allows us to take from the bad guys and give to the good people.” The funding will help Durham cops combat a growing wave of e-crime, including child por- nography, online luring of kids and computer-based fraud, said Deputy Chief Scott Burns. “These types of crime general- ly prey on our most vulnerable citizens,” Deputy Chief Burns said. “We’ve been successful in these areas and this grant will help build on that.” Mr. Bentley noted the grant money being awarded to police services is merit-based, helping services like Durham’s build on the foundations they’ve already established. “It’s a testament to the police service,” he said. The province’s prosecutors and police have been aggressive in using the Civil Remedies Act to target crime. In Durham Region the legis- lation has been applied to seize houses used for marijuana grow ops, vehicles and furnishings purchased with proceeds of crime and, perhaps most nota- bly, the Hells Angels clubhouse on Ortono Avenue in Oshawa. The building was recently demolished.

Attorney General Chris Bentley Police cannot confirm whether drowning or medical emergency caused death KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- A 40-year-old Pickering man is dead after a pos- sible drowning Thursday after- noon. Police, fire and emergency medical services attended 632 Vistula Dr. before 2 p.m. July 22 and found the man dead in his pool. “EMS could not revive, and he’s now deceased,” said Durham police spokeswoman Sergeant Nancy van Rooy. Sgt. van Rooy said police can- not confirm whether a drowning or medical issues led to the man’s death. Police will canvass the area to shed some light on the situation, but won’t know the cause of death until an autopsy is complete. “Our investigation will continue with what happened exactly,” she said. A group of young boys was play- ing in the ravine between Bayly Street and Vistula Drive when the boys first heard screams, which were followed by sirens shortly after. “I heard a woman screaming and it sounded frantic,” said Scott Chase. And they were almost certain their neighbour didn’t make it when they saw EMS pull the gen- tleman out to an awaiting ambu- lance. “He came out in a blue bath- ing suit and they were pumping down on his chest,” said Kane Kumar. Scott’s father, Dave Chase, lives with his family across from the deceased and said the man and his girlfriend lived there, and he believed a friend was visiting. “They’re fairly new,” he said, adding the deceased was just an acquaintance. The neighbours referred to the victim as “George,” and were unaware of his full name. Police will not release the name of the deceased until next of kin approves. Police cannot confirm who was at home or in the backyard when the incident took place. “I just know that a neighbour attempted to remove him from the pool,” Sgt. van Rooy said. The boys noted the woman who lives with the man came from inside into the front yard and started crying as the deceased was taken away. 900 Champlain Ave., Oshawa 905-723-4561 Hours: Mon.• Tues.• Wed. 10-6, Thurs.• Fri. 10-9, Sat. 10-6, Sun.11-5 Credit equal to the value of the HST OSHAWA www.furnituregalleries.ca PAY NO HST!OSHAWA 905-683-0407 WE BUY GOLD Old Ajax Plaza on Harwood Next to Home Hardware durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 23, 20103 AP EMERGENCY SERVICES Pickering man found dead in swimming pool SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND PICKERING -- Emergency officials were on the scene at a Pickering home where a man was found dead in a swimming pool Thursday afternoon. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 22, 20104 AP The Box Office 905-438-8811 or 1-877-436-8811 BUY ONE GET ONE FREE!!!

Justin Lui and his family will travel to Hawaii for finals in August MELISSA MANCINI mmancini@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- A deck of 60 cards with car- toon characters on them has helped a local 10-year-old boy win himself a trip to Hawaii. Justin Lui plays Pokemon cards, a game with a cult following internationally, based on the once-ubiquitous television cartoon for kids. The popularity of the show may have faded -- Justin himself doesn’t watch it -- but there are still many kids and adults who meet to play a game with the cards spawned by the cartoon. He likes the game so much that he trained all year and is now the Canadian champion in his age category. “I started collecting the cards and I thought it was fun,” he said. “It helps me with strate- gies and helps me in math.” The title of champion earned the Pickering student two tickets to the international finals in Hawaii next month. It also earned him $1,500 in scholarship money. The tourna- ment will bring Poke- mon players from around the world to fight for the title of champion. The card game pits two players against each other. Each player has a deck of 60 cards they use to “battle” when they throw down a card. Each card has a par- ticular function and number of points associated with it. Every player person- alizes their deck. There are hundreds of cards to choose from but players can only battle using 60. Justin’s whole family will be going with him to Hawaii. His 12-year-old sis- ter Kayla and his dad Ray will be taking their own decks so they can try to win a last-minute spot in the tournament by battling on the first day in a last-chance qualifier. It’s not the first time the family has attended the finals. Last year they ven- tured to San Francisco and incorporat- ed the tournament as part of their family vacation. None of the family placed last year, but Mr. Lui is confident that with Justin’s improved skills he might be able to make a mark on the leader board this year. “Last year we got dominated by the kids from out west (Alberta and B.C.),” Mr. Lui said. “But we’ve been trying out different strategies this year.” Justin and Kayla have been practising and training in Oshawa with a group that gets together based out of Skyfox Games cards on William Street in Oshawa, Mr. Lui said. Playing with older competitors who play a strategic game has helped the kids improve, he said. The tournament is serious business, with multiple translators working to allow players to communicate with their opponents from around the world. Justin said the hardest part about competing internationally is battling without much verbal communication. Players point and gesture to move the game along, he said. “It’s really hard,” he said. Besides improving on his past perfor- mance Justin has another goal while he is in Hawaii. “I want to open a coconut,” he said.

All content copyright Robin Hood money for cops welcome in Durham The traditional story of Robin Hood is one of a heroic outlaw who robs from the rich to give to the poor. And the Province of Ontario has its own version of ‘Robin Hood legislation’, which sees proceeds of crime seized from crimi- nals and plowed back into crime-fighting efforts. It’s an appropriate use of ill-gotten profits, and ironic to think that criminal activities actually end up funding police initiatives. Durham Regional Police were happy recipients this week of the legislation’s benefits. Attorney General Chris Bent- ley, who made the comparison to Robin Hood, said the law “allows us to take from the bad guys and give to the good peo- ple.” The Civil Remedies Act allows the courts to order forfeiture of proceeds of crime, and some of the $13 million recov- ered is coming Durham’s way. Our local police force got $207,000 to upgrade e-crimes efforts, a new fron- tier of criminal activity since the Internet became mainstream and ushered in the era of the information age. The funding will help Durham cops combat a growing wave of e-crime, including child pornog- raphy, online luring of kids and comput- er-based fraud, said Deputy Chief Scott Burns. What’s interesting about the funding to Durham is that the police, in effect, had to earn it. Mr. Bentley noted the grant money being awarded to police services is merit-based, helping police services like Durham’s build on the foundations they’ve already established. “It’s a testament to the police service,” he said. Like a build-it-and-he-will-come sce- nario, Durham police efforts to make inroads into e-crimes have been recog- nized and applauded. Although no one said so, the funding is merely a drop in the bucket compared to the annual police budget of nearly $146 million. While the funding won’t wipe illegal Internet activ- ity off the world wide web, and most cer- tainly won’t affect the bottom line for taxpayers, free funding is free funding. If the courts are going to exercise the right to seize proceeds of crime, it’s gratify- ing to know some of that funding comes our way. Deputy Chief Burns notes that e-crime preys on society’s most vulner- able members. The Durham police force, he says, has been “successful” in fighting these kinds of crimes, and the funding will help the local force carry on. And that’s good news for all of us. Proceeds from criminal activity repre- sent something originally taken from vic- tims. It’s deeply gratifying to think those proceeds are being turned around to pre- vent even more people from being vic- timized. Robin Hood would approve. Lately I’ve been hearing from folks who are logging onto Facebook against their will. Perhaps that’s a bit dramatic; nobody’s forcing them to update their status at gun- point. Still, they want to stop, but simply can’t resist logging on one more time. Whether it’s business or personal, everyone has a reason to consider joining. Maybe it’s re-connecting with a long-lost friend, maybe it’s a burning neighbour- hood issue begging for comment or per- haps a family member just posted pics of their newborn baby. Whatever the motive, it takes just sec- onds to log on and join. But to me, the reasons people join Face- book are a lot less interesting than the rea- sons they keep quitting and coming back. Part of it is the coolness factor and cool- ness is inextricably linked to youth. Face- book got its start on American college campuses before spreading around the world. It used to be the exclusive domain of 20-somethings, but now the average Facebook user is in her late 30s and is most likely to be female. That means for teens, they’re just as like- ly to get a friend request from their mom as they are from someone in their math class and that just makes it less fun. For jaded hipsters in their mid-20s, being caught logging onto Facebook is tantamount to shopping at Walmart. It’s just not done. But even for those of us who self-identify as mainstream nerds, the reasons to quit are there. Let’s face it, even if the average Face- book user has 130 friends, in real life we don’t have nearly that many people we can’t live without hearing from every day. The laws of the Facebook universe dic- tate that the more people post, the less interesting their posts become and the most prolific posters on your friends list are the ones you’re least likely to have a conversation with in real life. While wading through dozens of point- less status updates on our newsfeeds, the question inevitably comes: why am I wasting my time? One option is to prune our friends list, but for those with 400 or more friends, that can take hours. A quicker option is to quit Facebook altogether. Make one last status update asking those near and dear to shoot us an e-mail if they really want to chat. But, despite the fact that it only takes a couple of clicks, quitting isn’t as easy as it sounds because for many of us Facebook has become so ubiquitous in our social lives that deleting our accounts can be incredibly isolating. Quitting Facebook means missing out on breaking news among our friends and family such as break-ups, make-ups, new jobs, party invitations and more. The problem is people on Facebook assume everyone else is on it too and it’s easy to forget to include the folks who aren’t. In the end, most of us quitters come back. We lament our addiction to Crack- book and post on.

In Ontario, the unpost- ed speed limit is 10 km/ h within 30 metres (100 feet) from shore. Accord- ing to Transport Cana- da, the fine for speeding on Canada’s shorelines is $100. However, the City real- ized this limit wasn’t being enforced. According to the Dur- ham Police website, the Durham Regional Police Marine Unit “has the most difficult challenge of any police marine unit in the Greater Toronto Area.” Durham Region is bor- dered by Lake Ontario to the south, Lake Simcoe on the northwest and Lake Scugog on the northeast. Dozens of rivers also tra- verse Durham Region, and there are several ket- tle lakes on the Oak Ridg- es Moraine and numer- ous private ponds, storm water management ponds and water reservoirs they have to monitor. Pickering and police decided installing buoys and signs to warn boaters of the speed limit would allow effective enforcement. Over the spring the City consulted with the Pickering Harbour Company to decide the best places for the mark- ers and found the most suit- able signs and buoys. It cost less than $2,000 to install the buoys and signs throughout Frenchman’s Bay, the Pickering yacht club and marina, Mr. Suck- ling said. “The police are now going out and enforcing it happi- ly,” he said. In fact the unit has been stopping boats for speeding infractions, licence checks, and the promotion of over- all boating and marine safe- ty. “I think it’s a good and important addition to the city,” said Mayor Dave Ryan. He said the program not only promotes safety, but also benefits the environ- ment by reducing erosion on the shoreline that results from the waves caused by speeders. “Frenchman’s Bay is becoming one of the GTA’s premier attractions,” he said in a press release. “It is important that it con- tinues to be an enjoyable and safe destination for our residents and visitors alike.” BOATING FINES The following fines are listed on Transport Canada’s website: • Operating a vessel in a care- less manner - $250 • Speeding - $100 • Underage operation of a per- sonal watercraft - $100 • Operating a power-driven pleasure craft without the required operator card - $250 • Insufficient number of approved, appropriately sized flotation devices - $200 for each absent device The site has a number of resources available to encour- age boating safety.

The 16th annual Highlands of Durham Games is set to again invade Elgin Park July 24 and 25, bringing a unique blend of traditional Scottish entertain- ment, food and more. Event organizer Steve Harri- son said he is glad to be hold- ing the festival once again in Uxbridge. “I’ve been to highland games all over the world, but the set- ting in Elgin Park is one of the nicest,” he said. “It’s a picturesque setting and it’s always a great event when we hold it there.” Haggis Hurling -- where con- testants throw the tradition- al Scottish dish to a teammate who then has to catch it in their kilt -- is back again for a second year in a row. But for those preferring to eat their food, there will be a butter tart competition and plenty of other Scottish fare and refresh- ments available. Heavy events, such as the caber toss, stone putt and ham- mer throw are again in the line- up. Music will include perfor- mances by 15 pipe bands who will also play together twice a day during a massed band ceremony. The award-win- ning, Celtic-inspired band Poor Angus will also perform. More than 300 highland dancers will showcase their talents. Mr. Harrison said there will be a classic car and tractor show as well as a dog and cattle show. An expanded kids’ pavilion with a full slate of activities will be running on both days and plen- ty of Celtic artisans will display their work. The always popular avenue of the clans is back with a unique twist. “We are trying to make this as much of a Celtic celebration as possible so we opened it up to Irish clans this year as well,” said Mr. Harrison. “We hope many can make it out.” The two-day festival is a non- profit family event with pro- ceeds going to community groups who help run the gates, said Mr. Harrison. Proceeds from this year’s event will go towards a Sun- day school group and the Lucy Maud Montgomery Society of Ontario. An adult day pass for the event is $20.

AP COMMUNITY Compassion yoga in Ajax helps young mom All proceeds for cancer victim and family BY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com AJAX -- A local yoga teacher hopes to channel compassion, love and hope for a friend and young mother of two who’s bat- tling cancer. Ajax resident and yoga instruc- tor Carole Seens is offering a five- week “Yoga of Compassion” class designed for people of all ages. Proceeds will go to her friend Karen McNally, who was recent- ly diagnosed with brain cancer, despite receiving a clean bill of health just two months ago. “It’s a gentle, gentle class,” Ms. Seens said. Ms. Seens, who is a Kripalu- trained yoga instructor, explained the class contains gentle stretch- es, deep breathing, some standing and seated postures, and includes meditation to send peace and bal- ance for oneself and the world. “In the deepest place in our hearts we long to be free - free from our suffering, free from our emotional pain and mental dis- tress,” she said in an e-mail pro- moting the fundraiser. Ms. McNally was in a coma last summer and diagnosed with can- cer. She went through a number of chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and experimental drugs, and was declared cancer- free two months ago. But follow- ing a recent seizure, her doctor diagnosed her with brain cancer, only giving her three weeks to four months to live. She and her husband have a four-year-old daughter and a six- year-old son. “We’re just praying there’s a mir- acle,” Ms. Seens said. Ms. McNally used to work for Odyssey Books and Resource Cen- tre in Pickering Village, a meta- physical store that offers books, classes and gifts. Ms. McNally her- self performed hands-on heal- ing and spiritual readings and designed a deck of cards with writings of peace, love and healing poetry that she had published. Those cards were used in a recent “healing circle” at Odys- sey, along with a white rose meant to help her heal. The cards and rose will also be present at the yoga classes. “She is a very sweet, loving angel,” Ms. Seens said. “She’s just an earth angel.” Ms. McNally wants to fly to California for treatment, and her friend hopes the fundraiser will assist in sending her there. The classes will take place Mondays beginning July 26 from 7 to 8:30 p.m. at St. George’s Anglican Church, 77 Randall Dr., Ajax. Newcomers should arrive by 6:40 p.m. to sign up. The five-week session (which runs until Aug. 30, excluding Aug. 2) is $75; drop-in classes are $20. Attendees should take a yoga mat, or the session can be done in a chair. Donations are also being accepted at Odyssey, 109 Old Kingston Rd., Unit 15, Ajax.

Carole Seens, yoga instructor durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 23, 201014 AP Lawn arden Advertising FeatureG&Home, We all try our best to maintain a clean, healthy living space for ourselves and our families. But there are many germs linger- ing around our homes that we could be missing. Of course it’s impossible to avoid coming into contact with all germs and viruses but if you are aware of what is in your home, you have a better chance of defending against them. Here are some of the hot spots in your home you may not have considered: Hand towels In home bathrooms with heavy foot traf- fi c, shared cloth towels are often damp and germy due to overuse. Even if a towel looks clean, it may have viral, bacterial or fungal contaminants which can be transferred to hands when drying them. Health Canada recommends not using a common hand tow- el to dry hands. Instead, use a one-time use towel so you know you are getting a clean, fresh, dry towel every time. Pet food dishes Pets don’t always practice good hygiene, and nor do we when it comes to their dishes. Pet bowls are often left unwashed for lon- ger than they should be and as a result they collect germs and bacteria. Be sure to wash Fido’s dishes regularly to keep both pets and family members healthy. Light switches and door knobs Light switches (including lamp switches) and door knobs see a lot of hand traffi c each day and that makes them a hot spot for germs. Cleaning them off regularly – once a week when people are healthy or daily if someone is ill - with antibacterial wipes or sprays will help keep the spread of germs down. Purses, briefcases and backpacks When we are out and about we often place our bags on the fl oors of restaurants, offi ces and even public washrooms. By doing this our bags can pick up all kinds of germs and bacteria, so make sure you wipe off bags regularly to avoid tracking contaminants into the home. Salt, pepper and spices Most of us are good about making sure the utensils, cutting boards and plates we use when cooking are properly cleaned to avoid the spread of bacteria like salmonella. But what about spices, and salt and pepper shak- ers? Make sure whatever you touch when you are handling raw food gets a proper wipe down to avoid any unnecessary illness. 8848.

He’s one of the most success- ful and innovative special effects creators in film history, but to see his creations on display at the Visual Arts Centre of Clar- ington is a new experience for him. Smith has never exhibited his work, never even thought of it until he was invited to do so by the VAC’s Craig Ryan. “I’m flabbergasted; this is just junk from my stu- dio,” he says in an inter- view at the July 18 open- ing reception of the show. “Seeing it like this, I’m flabbergasted.” Well, maybe not junk. Smith means that the pieces have had their time, perhaps no more than a second or two, on screen. They’ve all been used; they no longer have a practical purpose. Most movie fans will find something recognizable in the more than 100 items on display. There’s Mystique from X-Men and the giant bat, or parts of it, from Graveyard Shift. Facial casts designed for actors in films such as Truman and 4 Brothers. Mod- els, props, drawings and pho- tographs, all created by the tal- ented crew Smith assembled to work with him at his company, FX Smith. Among Smith’s con- tributions to the world of special effects is the silicon, gel-filled prosthetic that can be used for a face, an arm, any body part. Before that, actors had to rou- tinely undergo hours of make-up work to get foam glued on to their skin. He and the fine artists he employed and toiled with worked without computers, before digital processes took over the industry. “It’s so hard to do all of this, the risk factor is really high,” Smith says. “There’s probably about a 98 per cent chance of fail- ure. In the digital world, it doesn’t matter if it doesn’t work, you do it again.” It wasn’t about egos at FX Smith, but about creating the best work possible. “My studio has always repre- sented for me the state of the art, both creatively and technically,” Smith says. It’s amazing that he got into the business of creating often grue- some effects for the screen in the first place. He has “a very severe blood phobia” from his father’s death of leukemia. And Smith never intended to get into this line of work. He has a classical education in theatre and started in the industry as an actor. His first big effects job was to re-create open heart surgery for the 1982 film Threshold. It was said to be impos- sible, but in the years that followed Smith became Mr. Impos- sible, maybe Mr. Mis- sion Impossible. “Almost every- thing I do is deemed impossible; that’s why they call me,” he says. “By the time it gets to me, it has been consid- ered impossible.” Smith’s work begins from the script. And while any- thing goes in a writer’s imagi- nation, actually making the thing he or she conceived, making it move or appear a certain way, is Smith’s practical challenge. “I have a script and I have to interpret the words written in the script to the image,” he says. Sometimes he would call for changes to the script because, in creating a piece, he’d discover that it just couldn’t do what was written there. He left the film industry five years ago, bitterly, after what he describes as jealousy made him a target, blackballed. All the cre- ativity in Hollywood is now at the mercy of “the bean counters,” he says. Smith’s building a new compa- ny, making a jump from the film to the music industry. Typically, he’s aiming for the sky. “We’ve developed a whole new performance format for live music,” he says. The Clarington exhibit is intended to make the view- er consider the process behind the movie magic, the creativity involved. But heck, Smith also had a blast doing it all. “Look around. I’ve had a gas. I’ve had such a good time,” he says. “I fell into it and was lucky enough to have wonderful peo- ple help me do it.” Visit Smith’s website at www. fxsmith.com. Gordon Smith - Special Effects is at the VAC until Aug. 29. The arts centre is at 143 Simp- son Ave., Bowmanville. “Almost everything I do is deemed impossible; that’s why they call me. By the time it gets to me, it has been considered impossible. Gordon Smith “RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND BOWMANVILLE -- World renowned special effects artist Gordon Smith, whose resume includes work on films such as X-Men, has an exhibit on dis- play at the Visual Arts Centre of Clarington until Aug. 29, includ- ing Mystique from the X-Men films. Smith was at the opening reception on July 18. Lifelong Ajax resident and multi-discipline artist Dave Zak has decided he will no longer make fine art to sell. Trying to make a living from his mixed media collages is just a bad model for art-making, he declares. And, besides, it takes all the fun out of being creative. So, he figures he will just make his art pieces spontaneously and without any thought of dis- playing or selling them. And when the time comes when he has sufficient works for a show, it will simply be a cel- ebration and a party -- and if something sells, that will be a bonus. Lucky for him that, at his rel- atively young age, he is firmly established as a multi-media advertising designer with an impressive and long list of cli- ents that includes BlackBerry, Nike, Walmart, Chrysler and Bank of America, for starters. He operates as art director for teams of copywriters, editors and designers who produce vid- eos used online and in-store to promote products and services. Zak’s post-secondary educa- tion began with multi-media design studies at Fanshawe Col- lege in London, continued with a two-year course in anima- tion at Durham College and just ended with him completing a fine art degree at York Univer- sity. All of this groundwork led him to practise what he calls motion design, the interweaving of dis- ciplines as diverse as music, video, digital imagery, collage and painting into his commer- cial art and fine art products. Not content with a solid advertising business and a bur- geoning fine art career (he has shown in outdoor shows, res- taurants and galleries and has numerous completed commis- sions to his credit), Zak’s lively imagination has conjured up various related entrepreneurial interests including marketing a special line of the resin he uses on his artworks and a book-pub- lishing enterprise. He and his fiancée, artist Rebecca Codack, have followed their urge to involve themselves in social justice and environ- mental issues, establishing web- sites and foundations to help raise awareness of causes dear to them. But mostly Zak loves to escape from the non-stop busyness of the work-a-day world into the freedom of making his unique multi-media collages.

Jiggs Pateo hit a ball in front of catcher Ryan Netram. DURHAM -- It was a great weekend for a regatta and there were some great results from Durham Row- ing Club members at the CORA St. Catharine’s regatta. The day started early for the U17 Men’s crew. Mike Alcorn and Ryan Lamoureux, from Uxbridge, crossed the finish line in third, win- ning the bronze medal. Next up was the U23 Women’s Single race where Rachelle Krause was up against some very tough compe- tition. She kept the race close and finished fifth. In the first masters race of the season, Jessica Sherwin took to the water in the Master’s Women’s Single, and after a close race crossed the finish line at the front of the pack to take the gold. The next race for the Durham crew was Adam Ballard and Scott Wilson in the Sr. Men’s Doubles. It was a hard fought race for second place but the duo were not able to close the gap in the final stages taking the bronze medal. Connor Lamoureux and Ryan Lamoureux, from Uxbridge, then moved into the starting gate for the U19 Men’s Doubles. They were up against some tough competition and were able to cross the finish line ahead of the Argonaut team that also raced in the U17 Men’s Doubles race. The final races of the day for the Durham crew were the U17 Men’s Single races. Mike Alcorn, Ryan Lamoureux and Connor Lamou- reux were the respective rowers in the three U17 single races. Mike Alcorn got out into second place through 1000m where he put up a good fight but was unable to hold off two other rowers from St. Cath- arine’s and Silver Lake and was overtaken and placed fourth. Ryan Lamoureux was off in the next race. Having already rowed two races, he came into this race a little tired. He was able to keep two boats behind him and placed fourth. The last race of the day for the Durham crew was Connor Lamoureux in the U17 Men’s Singles. He got himself into third position quickly and was able to hold on to third through to the finish line for the bronze medal. After resting for the remainder of the day the master’s rowers were back at it the following day for the ROW ONTARIO Master’s Champi- onship. Jessica Sherwin started the day off in the Women’s Lightweight Singles. She quickly got out into the lead and increased it as the race progressed, finishing with a time of 4:49.54 to take the gold. Her second race was the women’s singles race. This was a close race that saw her cross the line in third place with a time of 5:03.37 for the bronze. The third race of the day for Dur- ham was a mixed doubles with Jes- sica Sherwin and Adam Ballard. The pair were racing for first place but couldn’t quite catch the crew from Barrie and finished six sec- onds back from the lead in sec- ond place taking home the silver medal. The final race of the day was Adam Ballard in the men’s singles. He started off the race slow but was able close on the second place rower from Western, finishing 3.07 seconds behind second place at 4:26.94 to take home a bronze medal. Durham rowers paddle their way to medals ON THE WATER CALGARY -- George Burnett will be spending his Christmas holi- days trying to guide Canada’s junior hockey team to a gold medal. Hockey Canada, in partnership with the Canadian Hockey League, announced Tuesday that Burnett, head coach and general manager of the OHL’s Belleville Bulls, has been named assistant coach of Canada’s national junior team for the 2011 IIHF world junior championship in Buffalo and Niagara, N.Y. The Courtice resident, 48, replac- es Bob Boughner, who is stepping down as head coach of the OHL’s Windsor Spitfires to become assis- tant coach of the NHL’s Columbus Blue Jackets starting in the 2010-11 season. Burnett will also continue as head coach of Canada’s national men’s summer under-18 team for the 2010 Memorial of Ivan Hlinka tournament in Slovakia and the Czech Republic. Burnett has spent 13 seasons as a head coach in the Ontario Hockey League, six with the Belleville Bulls. He has also been bench boss for Niagara Falls, Guelph and Oshawa, winning the OHL Coach of the Year award twice, during the 1990- 91 and 1991-92 seasons. The Port Perry native also coached the NHL’s Edmonton Oilers for 35 games dur- ing the 1994-95 season and led Edmonton’s AHL farm team, the Cape Breton Oilers, to a Calder Cup championship in 1993. Burnett added to world junior staff HOCKEY DURHAM -- The creators of the 10 Round K.O Class as well as experts in strength and condi- tioning have introduced a collab- orative training program, Ladies Boxing Bootcamp, that makes use of both exercise systems for an intense 60 minutes of intense training.

It’s a Mobile Showroom which just may be the only one in Canada. “The day is gone when you carried some brochures and a sample window to a customer’s home,” explains 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 Windows 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 finest windows on the market,” says Wayne. “They’re triple sealed to reduce air leakage and come with heavy duty hardware.” All Vinyl Window Designs windows come with Low E Glass which filters 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. Wayne would also like his customers 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 Oshawa.

Oshawa, ON MOBILE SHOWROOM Readers’ Choice Winner FOOTBALL Dolphins post pair of wins Beat TNT and Orangeville in four day span DURHAM -- The Ajax Pickering Dolphins Senior Varsity OMFL team posted a pair of victories over a four-day period. On July 15, the Dol- phins played a resched- uled game that was rained out on Dolphins Day and beat the visiting TNT Express 37-1. The ‘Phins defence dominated the visiting team and was led by Lamar Wade-Henry and Rob Sinclair. The offence received touch- downs from Dustin Kaupp and D’Shane Chung along with Tristan Clough and Donald Marshall with all converts coming from the foot of Taylor Eskins. Last weekend, Pickering traveled to Orangeville to take on the Outlaws. Once again the Dolphins played well on both sides of the ball and defeated their opponent 37-6. Scoring two touchdowns apiece for Pickering were Tristan Clough and Roynelle Mer- edith, with Martin Downey and Curtis Inniss bringing in additional TDs. Taylor Eskins added an addition- al seven points with six converts and a single. The defence played a strong game as a group and only allowed one touchdown early in the game. The Senior Dolphins wrap up their regular sea- son in the Battle of Dur- ham against their rivals the Durham Knights at Kinsmen Park in Pickering on Saturday night at 7. For more info on games visit the Dolphins website at www.ajaxpickeringdol- phins.ca. DURHAM -- Daniel Tomei, #9, braced for contact after running a reverse for posi- tive yardage. The Ajax-Pickering Senior Dolphins won their game 37-6 against the Orangeville Outlaws. SOCCER Rogatinsky joins Durham College OSHAWA -- Durham Col- lege women’s soccer head coach David Staley did not have to look far to fill the void left in the Lords lineup from graduating seniors as he added two local stand- out recruits for the 2010 season. Joining the Lords will be Chelsey Rogatinsky, of Pickering, and Katelyn Hul- cio, of Whitby, who will look to make an impact during their freshmen season. Rogatinsky, a Dunbar- ton grad, joins the Lords with quite an impressive resumé. Playing youth soc- cer with the Ajax Storm, her team went on to win two Ontario Youth Soccer League (OYSL) provincial titles and was named the 2004 Ontario team of the year. Rogatinsky was active throughout high school as she was a member of a number of varsity teams including soccer, basketball and hockey. She was also strong in academics as she won the Dunbarton applied design award and gradu- ated as an Ontario scholar. She appeared in the popu- lar Metroland publication Faces of the Future, rep- resenting Rosebank Road Public School, where she was the valedictorian and top female athlete. “Chelsey is a strong defender who has great technical skills,” said Stal- ey. “She can also add a little offence as she has the abil- ity to score from long-range free kicks. I am very excited that Chelsey has commit- ted to Durham and look forward to her being an impact player throughout her career.” In Staley’s first season as head coach, the Lords earned a silver medal at the OCAA Championship after defeating the No. 1 nation- ally ranked Humber Col- lege Hawks in the semifi- nals. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 23, 201023 AP Oshawa • Peterborough • Lindsay Campus 1-800-753-2284 MINISTRY - APPROVED MINISTRY - APPROVED TTSAO AIR BRAKE ENDORSEMENT COURSETTSAO AIR BRAKE ENDORSEMENT COURSE Oshawa Campus Oshawa Campus August 14 - 15August 14 - 15 Peterborough Campus Peterborough Campus August 21 - 22August 21 - 22 Oshawa Campus Oshawa Campus August 26 -27August 26 -27 Kriska Transport – Looking for AZ Drivers Ontario Truck Training Academy invites you for an Recruiting Seminar August 11th at 11:30am Located at the Oshawa Campus 199 Wentworth St E – Oshawa Call for registration 1-800-753-2284 Production Associates "Ball is one of the world's most successful manufacturers of metal container packaging and a leader in advanced aerospace technology for government and commercial customers.
