On Sunday, July 11, residents, councillors and City staff gathered to plant a Peace Gar- den of poppies at the Pickering cenotaph in Esplanade Park as part of a project proposed by a resident who wishes to remain anony- mous. “A local resident came to the City about a year ago with the idea of doing something great for the community,” said Krystal Fer- guson, acting co-ordinator, marketing and revenue for the City of Pickering, noting that the resident provided funding for the gar- den. RYAN PFEIFFER / METROLAND PICKERING -- City Councillor David Pickles, left, and first vice-president and poppy chairman of Legion 606 Gil Barrett were among a group of volunteers planting poppies in a Peace Garden around the cenotaph in Esplanade Park as part of Pickering’s Bicentennial cel- ebrations July 10.

On Tuesday, July 12 just before mid- night officers were called to a Mac’s Milk convenience store at Dixie Road and Finch Avenue after a robbery was reported. According to police, three masked men entered the store and ordered the lone clerk into a back room. One of the men demanded the clerk’s electron- ic items. The sus- pects also stole cigarettes and lottery tickets from behind the counter before fleeing the area. Two of the suspects were reportedly on foot, while the third rode a bicycle southbound on Dixie Road. The victim was not physically injured. Two of the suspects are described as black males, about six feet tall, 175 pounds with medium builds and wear- ing black shirts, pants and masks cover- ing their faces. The third suspect is described as a male with light brown skin, about five feet six inches, 160 pounds with a slim build. He was wearing black pants and a mask cov- ering his face.

WALMART On page 5 of the flyer distributed onJuly 15 the picture of the Next6 Tablet(#30143088) was incorrect.The correct picture is as follows: Residents asked to curb car, driveway washing Keith GilliGan kgilligan@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- The hot, dry weath- er may be welcome, but it’s put- ting a strain on the water supply. “We’re starting to experience difficulties in our reservoirs to meet demand,” says Greg Lymer, manager of technical support for Durham Region. No reservoir has gone dry, but Regional officials are asking resi- dents to cut down on any unnec- essary water use, such as car or driveway washing. The Region has a bylaw that restricts lawn watering to the ‘odd-even’ system. Anyone with an odd-numbered address would water their lawn on an odd-num- bered calendar day, while an even-numbered address would be watered on an even-num- bered calendar day. The bylaw is in place from May to September and is mandatory. “It’s in place every summer, especially in times of a hot, dry period,” Mr. Lymer states. “The forecast looks hot and dry going forward,” he says, adding the lack of rain has also been a factor affecting supply levels. The Region is hoping to avoid having to restrict all outside water use, he says. “Right now, it’s odd- even usage.” Even though most of the region borders Lake Ontario, Mr. Lymer says it’s possible for Durham to experience a water shortage. The water still needs to be treated and then pumped to reservoirs, he adds. “We have to meet ministry guidelines. We only have a cer- tain amount of capacity,” Mr. Lymer notes. “If the current hot weather and water use trends continue, we may have to consider mandatory water restrictions,” he adds. Homeowners can also conserve water by only watering grass when necessary. A healthy lawn requires 2.5 centimetres (one inch) of water per week, includ- ing rainfall. Free rain gauges are available through the Region to help you measure how much water your lawn receives, and to avoid over-watering. For more water conservation tips and information on where you can get your free rain gauge, visit www.durham.ca/water- conservation, or call the Region of Durham’s Technical Support Division at 905-668-7711 (toll- free 1-800-372-1102).

The poppies are being planted today and with the proper maintenance they should be ready to bloom for the Legion’s D-Day ceremony next year, and every year after that.” Ms. Ferguson said there are plans to install an obelisk at the site identi- fying the planting as a Peace Garden, although at this point it’s not known when that part of the project will be completed. Gil Barrett, first vice-president and poppy chairman for Pickering Legion 606, was on hand to help with the plant- ing. “I think it’s wonderful,” he said of the project. “It’s another simple reminder to everyone that freedom isn’t free. I think the City and the citizens of Pickering need to be commended for what they’ve done and for all the support they’ve pro- vided to veterans in the past and ongoing.” Councillor David Pick- les noted that the garden was a nice addition and would complement further planned improvements to the cenotaph area. “I think this is a really nice addition with the work we’ve previously done in improving the cenotaph area and the work we’re about to do,” he said, explain- ing that council is currently review- ing tenders to have interlocking brick around the cenotaph replaced. “It’s kind of a little wobbly and uneven right now, which makes it difficult for people putting out wreaths, so it’s all going to be taken out and redone. I think the park is really coming along nicely; there’s a real theme to honouring our veterans and the Peace Garden just adds to that.” PICKERING from page 1 Gaps along Kingston Road to be addressed Moya Dillon mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- Residents will no longer have to risk their safety when walking along sections of Kingston Road after council approved the installation of tem- porary sidewalks. On Monday, July 11, councillors approved a tender to install asphalt pav- ing along the south side of Kingston Road between Walnut Lane and Glen- dale Drive in order to address accessibil- ity and mobility needs. The move is part of an ongoing process to fix several side- walk gaps along Kingston Road that have forced residents to walk along the gravel shoulder of the busy thoroughfare. “I’m pleased we’ve got something com- ing forward here since council for many years has talked about gradually putting those sidewalks into place,” said Coun- cillor Doug Dickerson. “This sidewalk is another aspect of putting in those pieces of the puzzle. As the sidewalk proceeds westward my sus- picion is we’re going to have to tunnel under the railroad tracks and knowing the length of that process is that some- thing we are undertaking?” Pickering CAO Tony Prevedel said the installation of sidewalks would be an ongoing process and tunnelling under the track would likely be looked at in the future. “We have the entire length of side- walk missing links along Kingston Road that myself and staff are reviewing,” he explained. “You’re abso- lutely right, further to the west in order to get the sidewalk in it’s going to require a pedestrian tunnel, which will probably be a very expensive section of sidewalk. At this point we have put $250,000 in the 2011 budget to start the process of fixing these links because as the Region moves forward with planned urbanization they will be putting in concrete walks along those areas. So at this time we are not actively pursuing a tunnel.” Several councillors praised the project, noting that completed sidewalks have been an ongoing goal of council for sev- eral years. “I have supported this vision to com- plete sidewalks on both sides of Kings- ton Road and this certainly fills a big hole,” said Councillor David Pickles. “This has been a priority for many years and it’s very nice to see this being done. This project is a big step to reaching our goal and will be well used by pedestri- ans, bikes and strollers.” The new sidewalk will be a tempo- rary asphalt path that will eventually be replaced with proper concrete sidewalks once development in the area moves forward. The project will cost $115,135. city Temporary solution approved for Pickering sidewalks toNy PREvEdEl coMMunity Pickering Peace Garden a reminder that ‘freedom isn’t free’ A Metroland Media Group Ltd.

That’s the estimate from ancestry.com CEO Paul Allen, who sampled surnames from census bureau data and compared it to surnames on Google+ to estimate the per- centage of the U.S. population on Google+, mashable.com reports. Google, for now, is keeping mum on how many users it has. But even if he’s a couple of million off, that’s still an impressive figure given that Google+ made its debut on June 28 and is still invitation-only. I became a plus one this week after a friend sent me an invite and I promptly started playing with it with the help of a couple of my friends. So why try Google+? First of all it’s got a couple of features that Facebook doesn’t that really come in handy. The main one is the circles feature. Instead of lumping all your friends into one giant group, you can create separate circles. So you could have circles for friends, family and acquaintanc- es for folks you don’t know so well and any other grouping you might come up with. The benefit is when you’re posting con- tent you can choose which circle sees it. That means grandma and your boss won’t see your antics at your best friend’s bache- lorette party. There’s a nifty Hangout feature which allows a video conference with up to 10 people. I haven’t had a chance to try it out yet, but I imagine it will be spectacularly popular. This feature is likely why Facebook is working on integrating Skype. Messing around on Google+ with friends, I didn’t immediately fall in love, but I thought it was kinda neat. My friend Nikki’s first reaction was “but all my pictures and junk are on Facebook”. That’s a clear barrier since many of us invested so much time uploading content on Facebook over the years. But at the same time, many of us have a bit of a love-hate relationship with the site, so Google+ pres- ents a chance to start again. It’s particularly appealing to current Gmail users since they visit Google regularly anyway. Nikki is a communications pro and she also raised a good point when she men- tioned that many businesses just recently embraced Facebook and getting them up to speed on Google+ as well is going to be a challenge. My other friend Laura said she never fig- ured out Google Buzz so she was “unlikely to figure this thing out”. Buzz, of course had a spectacularly controversial debut due to privacy issues, and most folks kept their social networking on Facebook. Definitely there’s a bit of a learning curve, so that makes it a bit of an inconvenience to switch from Facebook and keeping up with both social networking sites might be a chore. Overall the interface looks fine, but it’s nothing spectacular. But then neither is Facebook. Another downside is that while Android users can download an app for Google+, it’s not yet available in the app store for iPhone. Given all that, I’m going to have to play with Google+ a bit more before deciding whether it has the potential to be a Facebook killer or just another in a long line of not-quite-successful Google social net- working tools. -- Reka Szekely’s social media column appears every Thursday in this space.

Reka Szekely Social media fans can count me as a plus one on Google+ Big shoes to fill for new UOIT president One could forgive new University of Ontario Institute of Technology President Dr. Tim McTiernan if he seems a little awestruck about his new job. Dr. McTiernan, a former president and CEO of Canada College of Applied Arts and Technology in North Bay, knows well the transformational impact UOIT has had on Oshawa and the larger region, along with the success the university has enjoyed under the leadership of first pres- ident Gary Polonsky and outgoing presi- dent Ron Bordessa. But he has built an impressive resume himself in post-secondary academia and much experience in identifying and capi- talizing on the efficiencies and common ground that can be found between colleg- es and universities in close proximity, as is the case here in Durham. And, not surprisingly, he seems to have done his homework. He acknowledged this week the contribution that UOIT con- tinues to make towards urban renewal as its presence grows in downtown Oshawa; he vowed to uphold the commitment to student success and academic relevance the university holds dear; and hopes to further position UOIT as an institution known for its research, analytics and prob- lem solving culture that will serve busi- nesses and organizations the world over. That’s an ambitious goal, certainly, but one that fits well given the achievements the school has already realized under pre- vious presidents: innovative and relevant programs, economic renewal in down- town Oshawa and stunning enrolment growth, among others. Dr. McTiernan brings new energy and his own varied experience to the post, but will reinforce the learning and innovation culture that currently exists at UOIT, with a view to expanding the partnerships that existing locally, nationally and globally. Taking a long-term view, the work being done today -- to build, expand, and deep- en ties -- will serve Oshawa, Durham, its municipalities and its citizens for many years to come. Students today -- whether entering junior kindergarten or Grade 12 come September -- can work towards and earn a university degree, develop vital skills that might serve, for example, the automotive or nuclear power industries, and build lives in the communities in which they grew up, from Pickering to Newcastle and beyond. There’s a new president in town who has a clear sense of what UOIT can offer, and what it might grow to be. Perhaps one day he’ll hand a diploma to you, or your child.

But- terflies come in a vast variety of colours and sizes. The scale-winged beauty I was looking at in an over- grown field in Haliburton Coun- ty was among the smallest I’d ever seen since I started taking part in Ontario butterfly counts more than a decade ago. Its centimetre-wide wings were an odd greenish colour. What immediately caught my notice were the red-orange markings on its outerwings. Several members of the hairstreak family, my favou- rite butterflies, have orange patch- es decorating the bottom corner of their hindwing. This one had a fine red-orange border at top and sides, plus a few orange tracings down the middle. When it briefly opened its wings I was amazed to find the dark upper side glinting metallic blue, like a tiny stunning morpho. And it had a hairstreak’s elegant black- and-white-striped legs and anten- nae. Stymied, I stared at it. I’d never seen this butterfly before -- even in pictures. It was one for the experts. I caught it in my net, carefully trans- ferred it to a clear plastic pill canis- ter and tucked it in my pocket. After showing it to my husband -- he’d never seen it before, either -- I put it in the cooler to keep it calm and still. And started flipping through our butterfly books, trying to iden- tify it. The only butterfly shown with similar orange markings was so rare that finding one would be as good as winning the lottery. Nah, I thought. Impossible. At the count tally in Minden at the end of the day we set the lit- tle stranger in front of Ed Poropat, compiler and local expert. He peered at it, then glanced up in disbelief. “Is this what I think it is?” he asked, and ran outside with the pill case to view the butterfly in bright light. He was followed by a stream of count participants, none of whom had seen this species before. It was, indeed, an early hairstreak, found so rarely in Canada that a friend declared he’d never expected to see one in his lifetime. “Few North American butterflies have attracted as much attention as this rare species, whose habits are shrouded in mystery,” wrote the authors of the National Audubon Society’s Field Guide to Butterflies. Apparently early hairstreaks live high in the canopy of mature beech-maple forests, with females descending to the ground only rare- ly to sip moisture from paths. There were no beech trees of any size where I found this tiny celeb- rity. Experts speculate some may feed on beaked hazel, an understo- ry shrub that produces nuts similar to those of beech. First thing the next morning, we went back to the spot, documented the historic find with photographs, took a GPS reading, and reverently released the still-perky little but- terfly. It climbed up on my thumb, paused, and fluttered off into the sunshine. Nature queries: mcarney@inter- links.net or 905-725-2116.

But a call to PJ’s Pet Centre and a quick Google search revealed he’s not alone. “Herons are a bit of a pest,” says Ryan Roz- inskis, PJ’s pet care associate. Hartz, pet product manufacturers, says on its website, hartz.com, the first thing you have to do is get to know your predator. The blue heron, it says, is perhaps the most ruth- less and efficient of backyard predators. It is especially attracted to brightly coloured fish, which are easier to hunt -- bad news for goldfish with their bright orange colouring. Other predatory birds include cranes, egrets and kingfishers. Mr. Rozinskis says he keeps a cover over his pond. He supports it with rocks so the rac- coons, other backyard predators, don’t make it sink to the bottom if they stand on it. “I keep it on all the time and I have my plants grow through it,” he says. Pond covers usually consist of netting, which can be made from various materials. It’s also a good idea to have a deep pond with a steep drop-off. “With raccoons especially, if you give them a ledge to get in and swim, they’ll go in,” Mr. Roz- inskis says. “If you have a steep drop-off they won’t be able to go in and swim around.” Hartz says if a pond is at least three feet deep, herons won’t be able to wade and fish can swim deep to avoid them. The rocks, coupled with the depth, also give the fish more places to hide. Kristen’s Kritters’ Face- book page visitors also sug- gest owl statues, and one even says people near her cottage use a plastic coyote to keep the herons, geese and ducks off the beach area. Mr. Rozinskis had similar advice. “Some people have had success with decoys, like a heron,” he says. Although he says it’s not a guarantee, he finds a trusty old dog can help. “Usually if there’s a dog around you won’t see a heron,” he says. Other decoys that could scare away pred- ators are snakes and alligators, says Hartz. For the best results, you should try to move the decoys around as much as pos- sible. Some predators are very intelligent and will figure out a fake. There are also a variety of fish poacher alarms on the market, most of them triggered by motion sen- sors. They’re effective in warding off predators and do so in a variety of ways, from loud music to bright lights to jets of water. But these devices can’t tell the difference between a predator approaching the pond and you and can be very annoying, according to Hartz.

The Pickering resident was one of 55 junior aged athletes (16-19 year olds) that will travel to Miramar, Flori- da to compete at the 2011 Panameri- can Junior Championships from July 22-24. Chin, 18, will compete in the discus. The Dunbarton student has had an outstanding season so far. At the OFSAA provincial championships in Sudbury, she won gold in shot put with a mark of 12.87m, and duplicated the first place finish in the discus with a toss of 47.06m. At the Canadian Junior Champion- ships in Winnipeg, she collected gold in the discuss (46.30m) and bronze in the shot put (12.62m). She is a member of the University of Toronto Track Club and is coached by Adrian Roberts. At the last edition of the Pana- merican championships in 2009, the Canadian squad finished fifth overall as a team with a haul of 13 medals, including three gold, three silver and seven bronze. hockey kostka signs with Florida Panthers FLORIDA -- Mike Kostka will con- tinue to chase his dream of reaching the National Hockey League. The Oshawa resident and former Ajax-Pickering Raiders’ product has signed a one-year two-way contract with the Florida Panthers. Kostka’s deal was originally announced by the team on the eve of NHL free agency. The six-foot-one 200-pound defenceman had 55 points in 80 games to lead the Rochester Ameri- cans of the American Hockey League in scoring last season. It was the first time in the 55-year history of the fran- chise that a defenceman has held that honour. He also led the AHL in power play goals for a defenceman with 11. In signing with the Panthers, the former UMass-Amherst graduate achieves a level of familiarity as his former coach with the AHL’s Portland Pirates, Kevin Dineen, was recently named head coach of the Panthers. NcAA soccer Reid an athlete and scholar Ajax soccer player opts for James Madison BrAd kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Even before he suits up for a game with the James Madison Dukes soccer pro- gram, Boyd Reid gave every indication that he has a team-first attitude. Pursued by several NCAA schools for his play on the pitch, the Ajax resident is equally as skilled in the classroom. An honours’ stu- dent throughout his time at Pickering High School, Reid finished with an 82-per-cent average when combining all his classes from Grades 9 through 12. Those marks led to his nomination and membership into the Nation- al Society of High School Scholars, receiving an academic scholarship into the Centennial Scholars’ Program at James Madison. So, instead of using athletic money, he took academic money to study international busi- ness, hoping in the long run it works out best for the team. Smart move. “Now the athletic money will stay in the school and instead of using it on me, they can go out and get another player,” he says of his reasoning. For the academic side of it, the school took into consideration his community ser- vice, academics and letters of reference from coaches. Committing to James Madison, a Division I school in Harrisonburg, Virginia, came as a bit of a surprise considering the number of programs in both the United States and Canada that wanted to make him a part of their program. “It kind of surprised me actually,” says Reid of how things unfolded. “I was looking at a couple other schools, trying to make a deci- sion and all of a sudden I got an e-mail from James Madison. “I looked at the school and it looked remark- able. It’s a pretty big school but it’s not really big, so it’s not overwhelming.” The academic side has always been a priori- ty for Reid, something he worked hard at from an early age. “My parents have always stressed the importance of education. From an early age I’ve always taken some good, solid time for my homework and afterward I can do what- ever.” On the field, he was MVP and captain of the school soccer team last season. His summer team, the Ajax Gunners, is one of the most respected programs in the province. The team has competed in England and Scotland, win- ning the Edinburgh Cup, as well as competing at a number of showcase tournaments in the United States. Championships have come in New Jersey, Ohio, Indiana and Disney World, as well as being finalists in Dallas. A little closer to home, they have won the provincial championships and were bronze medallists at the Ontario Summer Games and BMO National Championships. “Definitely my dream is to play profes- sionally,” says Reid with an eye to the future. “Going overseas would be amazing, getting a good contract and having a good, solid living overseas would be a dream come true. “Playing in the MLS, if I had the opportuni- ty, I would definitely go.” He will report to James Madison Aug. 10, with an exhibition game against George Washington on Aug. 18. Last season the Dukes had a 4-6-1 record in the Colonial Ath- letic Association. sABriNA ByrNes / MetrolANd AJAX -- Boyd Reid is an honours student from Pickering High School who received an aca- demic scholarship from James Madison University in Virginia, where he is also going to play on the school’s soccer team. Dragon Boat team moving up the high school ranks PICKERING -- After years of pad- dling for their high school and internationally, Pine Ridge High School alumni Jordon Moss, Josh Brown, Katie McCarty and Alex Henning returned to their roots. The group paddled under the tutelage of long-serving coach Dan Evelyn, who stepped aside in 2008 to concentrate on his busi- ness. Along they way they have represented Canada at world championships in Berlin, Germa- ny, Hong Kong, China, Sydney, Austria and Toronto. Since 2008 this new genera- tion of coaches has taken over the Pine Ridge dragon boat program and is giving back to the com- munity by coaching and teaching the sport of dragon boat. It is the direct result of the athletes pas- sion and dedication for the sport of dragon noating that has made the Ridge Racing team a serious contender on the high school dragon boat circuit. Moss, the head coach, pushed his 2011 team of paddlers to new heights and almost caught their arch rivals, the highly ranked Mowat Mustangs, in recent regat- tas. His team is comprised of a number of experienced paddlers but most are new to the sport. According to Moss, he was very proud of his fellow coaches and dedicated paddlers as the team practised three times a week at the Pickering Rouge Canoe Club in Frenchman’s Bay at the end of West Shore Drive. The Ridge Racing dragon boat team entered two regattas for the 2011 season. At the first regat- ta, it finished an impressive sec- ond overall at the Ontario high school championships held on Frenchman’s Bay in Pickering. The highlight of the year came at the Toronto International Drag- on Boat Racing Festival on Cen- tre Island in Toronto. Pine Ridge went into the championship race ranked second behind arch rivals Mowat Mustangs, with an aver- age time of 2:10.58. The champi- onship race was very close and Ridge Racing paddled to its best time of the season with a very impressive 2:08.45. However, the team finished third in a very tight race in junior mixed division. According to Moss, “The future looks bright for Ridge Racing with solid coaching and some very good athletes who were willing to listen and work hard. The Pine Ridge dragon boat program has been put back on the map this year and the future is very bright for this program going forward. “Our goal next year is to have two boats entered in the regattas and to catch our rivals.” Ridge Racing runs its program through the Pickering Rouge Canoe Club, which also runs activities and programs (both competitive and recreational) throughout the summer season. They also run summer camps for junior campers.

Cassels, the team’s first pick, 16th overall, in the May OHL draft, signed a standard OHL agreement with the club Tues- day. A 16-year-old Ohio native and son of longtime NHL player, Andrew Cassels, he had also been drafted by Muskegon in the USHL futures draft and could likely have entertained NCAA scholarship offers. “Obviously Cole had some dif- ferent options for the next step in his hockey career and we are thrilled that he chose Oshawa for his hockey and education devel- opment,” said Chris DePiero, head coach and general manag- er of the team, in a press release. “We look forward to helping his development and watching his growth both on and off the ice over the next few years.” In 48 games with the Ohio Blue Jackets U16 team last season, Cas- sels scored 22 goals while adding 44 assists for 66 points. The five- foot-11 forward also played with the TPH Thunder at the 2011 OHL Cup, where he scored two goals and had an assist in four games. The Generals will be celebrat- ing their 75th anniversary year this season. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 14, 201116 AP Jim McCaffertyChair of theBoard Paul PullaDirector ofEducation DURHAM CATHOLIC DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD Learning and Living in Faith www.dcdsb.ca The Durham Catholic District School Board is located just east of Toronto and is renowned for providing comprehensive Catholic education to over 23,000 students in 39 elementary schools, seven secondary schools, and four continuing and alternative education centres throughout Durham Region.
