For every new home purchase in the community of CreekWood during the months of July and August, Coughlan Homes will donate $1,000 to the Image is Everything campaign supporting the addition of an MRI scanner at the Rouge Valley Ajax and Pickering hospital. Without this essential diagnostic tool, physicians at Rouge Valley Ajax Pickering hospital have been forced to send patients to other facilities, delaying their diagnosis, treatment and cure. With an MRI onsite, physicians will be able to reduce patient wait times and use the most up-to-date equipment to accurately diagnose and treat their patients in a timely manner. Coughlan Homes is proud to support the community in this way. CreekWood—Coughlan Homes’ latest development—features single detached homes and townhomes on 30’, 37’, and 40’ lots. With tableland forest and protected ravines encompassing the community, CreekWood’s front porches and upper master bedroom balconies will help residents bring nature indoors.

Durham police are seeking four suspects in the robbery, which occurred at about 3:40 p.m. on a path near Keeble Crescent, in the vicinity of Rossland Road and Har- wood Avenue. The 20-year-old victim told police he was accosted by four bicycle-rid- ing males, one of whom produced a knife and demanded his property. The rattled victim threw his valuables to the ground and high-tailed it into a patch of bush near Bennett Avenue, where he found a safe place to dial 911 on his cell phone. The suspects are described as black males, believed to be about 16, all of whom rode bikes.

Humane Society responds to numerous heat-related calls July 20 KriSten CaliS kcalis@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- As temperatures climb to record-setting numbers, the Humane Society of Durham Region is fielding numerous calls to save dogs in distress in this heat. Although people know the GTA is expe- riencing a heat wave, they’re still leav- ing their dogs in cars and tied up outside in the heat, which lead to heatstroke and even death, says Debby Houghton, animal cruelty investigator. “A few days ago everyone was being alerted it would get this hot,” she said. As of 1:30 p.m. on July 20, she’d received three different calls regarding dogs in dis- tress in the heat. “It’s crazy,” she said. Ms. Houghton and her team rescued two dogs from a vehicle parked at the Pickering Town Centre earlier in the day. She was on her way to saving another dog in a car, as well as puppies that were tied up outside in the sun in Courtice. “We have authority of police officers under the (Animal Cruelty) Act,” she said. “I can enter anybody’s vehicle.” If a dog is showing signs of distress and the door is locked, she has no qualms about breaking a window to get them out. The repair costs are up to the owner. “If we go to a call where there’s a dog in a car and the dog is in immediate danger, we will enter the vehicle,” she said. She urges people to keep their pets cool in this heat, and says if anyone notices a dog in distress in this weather, call the Humane Society at 905-665-7430 ext. 225.

The money is for a period from April to June this year and is part of the quarterly payments Ajax receives for serving as the host community for the casino. Host communities receive five per cent of a gaming facilities slots revenue for the first 450 machines and two per cent for addi- tional machines. Ajax Downs has about 800 machines and has received more than $28 million since the facility opened in 2006. In addition to revenue for the host com- munity, 20 per cent of the gross revenue is split between the race track owners and the horse racing industry. The Town of Ajax has two main uses for slots revenue: infrastructure projects such as roads and trails and for debt reduction on capital projects. “What we do is we use the slots revenue to reduce the amount we have to borrow which saves us millions in interest,” explained director of finance Rob Ford earlier this year. Ajax has used slots money on projects such as the operations centre. The 55,000-square- foot facility cost $19 million and the Town used $7.4 million in slots money on the proj- ect. Going forward, the Town will be using $4.5 million from the slots money towards the new Audley Recreation Complex, a new community centre in north Ajax. A small amount is also used for grants, such as the $500,000 the Town will donate over four years to the Ajax-Pickering hospi- tal for a new MRI machine. Of the slots dollars Ajax had used by the end of 2010, a total of $23.8 million, 58.4 per cent, went to infrastructure projects, 37.3 per cent went to debt reduction and 4.3 per cent was used for the Town’s grant program. If the slots money wasn’t available, Mr. Ford said Ajax residents would see higher annual tax increases and pointed out over the last several years Ajax has had the lowest average tax increase among Durham munic- ipalities. “The biggest misconception we get is they’re not used to reduce taxes,” he said.

The Pickering teen was one of 82 participants across Ontario selected for the Air Cadet League of Canada’s Fly- ing Scholarship program. For Lester, 17, the program was a way to follow in his family’s footsteps. Two of his older brothers went through the same cadet flight program and are now commercial pilots, while his father has worked for Emirates Airlines. “It feels like you’re on top of the world, it’s amazing,” Les- ter said of the moment he discovered he’d been accepted to the programs, which allows participants to obtain their pilot licences in just seven weeks. “The first week was really intense, it’s a lot of hard work but the instructors are really great. You really come to a good environment because you see people you’ve been going to other courses with over the years so you forge good friendships with other cadets.” A member of the Pickering’s 856 Kinsmen Squadron for five years, Lester has risen to the rank of flight sergeant and mastered theory of flight, navigation, meteorology and air- manship. Over the years he has also had the opportunity to attend other aviation-based courses, including introduc- tion to aviation and a glider course offered out of Trenton. On Tuesday, July 12, Lester completed his first solo flight when he piloted a Katana D20 aircraft around the circuit of the Region of Waterloo International Airport. Although he has been in the air many times throughout his train- ing, that first solo flight is something he says he will always remember. “When you go up in a dual flight, your head is always in the cockpit,” he said. “But when you’re solo you go up and think to yourself ‘wait, I’m alone.’ You really take that moment in and feel it. It’s about knowing you can do this by yourself and know- ing people believe in you that you can do it. I really look at it as another milestone, because now I’m another step closer to being a pilot. It’s a real sense of achievement.” That sense of accomplishment is something Lieutenant Allyson Cordy, supervisor of the Power Pilot Scholarship program, said is common among the cadets who come through the program. “The thing I notice most is the pride you see in their eyes,” she said. “You can tell they think ‘I’ve obtained this and I worked very hard to get here.’ It’s a certain look in their eyes when they leave.” Although private flight schools also offer pilot courses, Ms. Cordy notes that the cadet program is different because it’s concentrated. Cadets graduate after seven weeks with their Transport Canada Private Pilot Licence and Royal Canadian Air Cadet Wings qualification badge. “For the average civilian this would take four to six months. For these cadets it’s their only focus for the entire seven weeks.” For Lester, the course is another step toward his dream of becoming a commercial pilot for Emirates Airlines, although he says he will be leaving the course with more than just a licence. ‘I’ll be taking away a lot of good qualities, like how to be more socially aware of what’s going on around me when I’m flying, more organization and efficiency and improved focus. But mostly it’s one more step to what I think is an amazing career. Flying is something I really enjoy because it’s like no other feeling in the world, it’s always such an event.” coMMunity Pickering teen takes to the skies subMitteD photo PICKERING -- Pickering Air Cadet Lester Sampayo, left, is congratulated by flight instructor Brandon Rodenhurst after completing his first solo flight as part of the Air Cadet League of Canada’s Flying Scholarship program at the Waterloo-Wellington Flight Centre. Feedback Writer misinformed about medical marijuana To the editor: Re: ‘Are you kidding me?’, letter to the edi- tor regarding Cannabis Day, durhamre- gion.com, July 11, 2011. The letter writer is terribly misinformed about cannabis and its medical use. Talk to Ben Fudge. He is an Oshawa man who can hardly move because of his med- ical condition. He requires cannabis for pain relief and just to have a somewhat normal life. He is not just “masking his symptoms with a great big buzz”, he is getting real pain relief. Does the letter writer live with pain? Does the person know how much pain can ruin one’s quality of life? The real crock is people like this who would deny people like Ben Fudge pain relief because of their own personal preju- dices against a plant that has never killed anyone in the history of recorded time. Please join us in the 21st century and stop the prejudice against cannabis. Michael Gabona Scugog *** It’s not about getting high To the editor: Re: ‘Are you kidding me?’, letter to the edi- tor in response to Cannabis Day, durham- region.com, July 11, 2011. It is obvious from the comment of the let- ter writer that she does not have a family member or loved one that suffers from a life-long disability not of their choosing. Try watching your son suffer a grand mal seizure where you can do nothing but pray for a miracle or some cure. Yes, my son has a medical card so he can smoke pot, not to get high but to relieve the frequency and severity of his seizures and the terrible side effects after having one of these seizures. Medical cards are not easy to acquire. People should check their facts before making such bigoted comments. Karen Brown Oshawa Public transit Grumpy bus drivers at GO too To the editor: Re: ‘ Bus Drivers should be friendlier’, let- ter to the editor, durhamregion.com, July 4, 2011. I could not agree more. I am a frequent rider of the GO bus service. I take the bus west from Newcastle and back again. Numerous times I have ‘dinged the bell’ to no avail. The bus driver continues until you walk to the front of the bus and tell them to stop. That is if the ‘dinger’ is even turned on; most times I have to tell them it’s not working. In one instance, the bus driver was so busy talking to another pas- senger (and I am assuming they were friends) that she missed my stop, and the next three. I had to walk almost 30 minutes along a highway in the dark to get home. I try to have exact change, or close to it when I ride the bus, but they roll their eyes and act like it is such a hassle to give change. They have driven right by me, over and over again, though I am waving both my arms. Then, when they finally stop 200 metres up the road, they act as if it was my fault for them not seeing me. May I remind these drivers what their job is? I am sure their supervisors expect them to have positive and pleasant customer service skills. I ride the bus daily, five days a week and I can guarantee on one of those days, I will get a rude, unpleasant, grumpy driver, male or female. All other days of the week, the drivers are content and pleasant, greet me with a smile. That is what I expect from anyone who works with the public. Service work- ers need to know that even when you get a grumpy customer, you treat them with a pleasant attitude because they are your livelihood. Lisa Marie Newcastle & A Metroland Media Group Ltd.

We urge you to donate generously and commend the many daycares in Pickering and across the region that have joined the drive. It’s summertime, and while it’s swelter- ing out there, the living is generally easy for most of us. We’re concerned about get- ting ready for that holiday at the cottage or planning a relaxing staycation at home. But for those who are struggling to pay rent and put food on the table, the living is seldom if ever easy. It’s not hard at this time of year to forget that thousands of Durham residents count on local food banks and soup kitchens, not just around the holidays but 365 days a year. Many are working hard, sometimes two or three low-paying jobs at a time, to support their families. However there just isn’t enough money, even for the basics. Yet, for those who donate or are able to donate, the focus is generally on Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas food drives. They tend to tug on the heartstrings more. Helping Hands has not forgotten. When owner Nancy Eickmeier spearheaded a food drive recently, she invited other day- cares to join in. The response was not just good but tremendous: daycares from Pickering to Courtice came on board. The beneficiary is Feed the Need in Durham and the food will be distributed across the region.Ms. Eickmeier says she got the idea after seeing a News Advertiser story about the shortage of food after Feed the Need’s Spring food drive. “I started to think, ‘I have seven centres, 100 staff and over 900 families that we can reach with this very important cause, why not reach out to other centres in Durham and get some real momentum going’.” So, what began as a small effort to do some good has turned into a huge effort with the potential to make an incredible impact. That’s where you come in. Give a thought to the food drive and donate. We often for- get that, compared to hundreds of millions of people in the world, we’re millionaires. We have gourmet meals most nights. So it’s not a question of can we help, but will we. The drive is on to Aug. 1. Here are the daycares in Pickering taking part: Helping Hands, Bayfair, Discovery Place, Kids R Us, Muppets, Blaisdale, Pickering Early Years, Edukids and Altona Rd. Help- ing Hands daycares will gladly accept com- munity donations, but check with the oth- ers to ensure it’s fine with them. Here’s your chance to help make sum- mer not easy, but easier for the people in our community who could use the boost. durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 22, 20117 AP General Motors Centre Wednesday, July 27th at 6:30 pm Celebrate 20 years ofThe Wiggles ON SALE NOW! 1-877-426-8811 www.generalmotorscentre.com ImportantInformatIon SeSSIonforVeteranS Wednesday,July27that1pm Areyoureceivingthebenefitsyouor a lovedonemight be entitledto?

If you’re like me, you’ll take your family to the trails and discover Durham on two wheels. Did you know more than 350 kilometres of recreational trails intertwine throughout our region? From waterfront paths to the roll- ing hills of the Oak Ridges Moraine, Durham abounds with excellent cycling routes. The trails will take you through a variety of land- scapes and allow you to take in urban cities, small hamlets, conservation areas and lush forests, all while experiencing the region’s bountiful beauty. To order a Durham Region Trails guide, visit www.durhamtourism.ca. Our province also boasts a wide variety of cycling opportunities, including a breathtak- ing path along the Waterfront Trail. This route connects 900 kilometres of scenic shorelines along Lake Ontario and the St. Lawrence River. From peaceful countryside to big cities, this trail links different communities and hab- itats together, creating a great, diverse ride for the whole family. Visit www.waterfrontrail. org. Each day, about one million car trips are made both to and from Durham Region. As a result, roads can become congested, espe- cially during peak travel periods. Why not leave the gridlock behind and get in gear? Providing more than just recreation, cycling to work can be a fun commuting option and a viable transportation alternative for many of us. Smart Commute Durham offers a number of resources for cyclists, as well as for organi- zations that employ 50 or more individuals. Visit www.smartcommutedurham.ca. I’m always looking to support a good cause and each year the Ride 4 United Way pro- vides a day full of fun, positive energy, with great music and food.

Ajax artist Susan Lindo has been lead- ing the sandcastle program for about five years. She started each of the ses- sions with a talk about building tech- niques which were demonstrated on a sandcastle she and her nephew Nathan Jenkins had started building at 6 a.m. in the morning. The kids grabbed the buckets and shovels and dug in, most of them build- ing under red OPG tents which spared them from the sun’s hot glare. “I love building sandcastles,” said three-year-old Pickering resident Sarah Helen Xerri as she worked away. She got help from her two brothers, six- year-old Owen and 10-year-old Liam. Owen and Liam were engaged in a sprawling project with half a dozen other kids. “This is the border perimeter and in the middle we’ll have a huge sandcas- tle,” said Liam, pointing to a moat dug around the castle site. The kids filled up the ditch with stones and rocks in an effort to keep water from being absorbed into the sand. “If we put sand on top of the rocks, it will stay, that’s what I’m thinking,” said Pick- ering’s Dayne Dellaire, 9. Their moms, Karen Dellaire and Cath- erine Xerri, looked on. Ms. Xerri lives near the Pickering plant and said she loves that the OPG activi- ties are free. She pointed out with events that have even a nominal fee, with four children it adds up. “The library and OPG, they have some excellent programs and they’re free and the kids really enjoy them,” she said. Seven-year-old Bryanne Dellaire had made new friends at the event as she worked with seven-year-old Emma Pozzo and nine-year-old Katriona Pozzo. Emma and Katriona are from the Yukon, but they were spending the sum- mer with their grandma, Ajax’s June Day. Ms. Day said she regularly brings her grandkids to the OPG event. “I think it’s the most amazing program, this will be their third year participat- ing,” said Ms. Day. Giana Koskinas, 12, who was working with her cousin Aris Papadakis, 6, said she liked the tips from Ms. Lindo. “I like how you can make all different kinds of thing,” said Giana. The model sandcastle showed a num- ber of techniques including packing sand tightly with water which means the sand can be cut and carved into different shapes. Another technique is dripping where the kids hold sand in their hands and dip their hands and then allow the wet sand to slowly drip out through their fingertips. It’s a great technique for making trees and it hardens to an almost clay-like consistency. Ms. Lindo is a sculptor and said she loves working in the sand. “It’s a challenge and I like to see what I can do.” Ms. Johnston said OPG chooses its weekly programs based on feedback from the public and the feedback for Castles in the Sand has always been excellent. She added the City of Pickering does a great job maintaining the beach. “I think it’s being on the beach, we’ve been really lucky and we’ve gotten beau- tiful summer days ... and what better way to spend your day than building sand- castles.” For upcoming Tuesdays on the Trail programs: CALL 905-837-7272 (Pickering Nuclear Community Information Line) vIsIt opg.com/community recreaTion Pickering kids build sandcastles during OPG program PICKERING from page 1 sabrina byrnes / meTroland PICKERING -- Ava st.

But first the hospital had to be convinced that 17-year-old Trey Gregory was not too young to save his dying mother’s life. When Toronto General Hospital finally allowed him to donate a piece of his liver, it also changed its policy for the minimum age for live donors. “I’m alive and my son saved my life,” says Trey’s mother, Patty Gregory. Ms. Gregory, 54, had liver disease and was put on the transplant waiting list in October 2009. Trey, then 16, wanted to donate. His mother wouldn’t hear of it. “I was convinced I would get a donor in time,” she says, adding she didn’t want to risk her son’s life. But as her condition deteriorated and Trey kept insisting, she agreed. “She was so sick . . .” says Trey. “I just wanted her to get well.” But Toronto General does not allow anyone younger than 18 to donate. Last March, the shy Grade 12 student at Pickering High School decided to press the issue. Trey was told repeatedly he wasn’t old enough, but that didn’t stop him. He met with surgeons, a psychiatrist and social workers. Eventually, he won them over. A few days before the surgery, he confid- ed in some friends, teachers and the vice- principal at his school. On May 13, after many blood tests and scans, he underwent an 11-hour surgery in which a transplant team removed a piece of his liver. The next few days were a blur of excruciating pain, he says. By the sixth day, the pain was gone. He was home a week later, and that evening, he went to Kelsey’s for dinner with friends. Two days after that, he was back at school, a bit of a hero even though he won’t admit it. David Grant, surgical director at Toronto General’s multi-organ transplant program, says the policy was changed because “a young person challenged the age cut-off.” The hospital’s “robust” assessment pro- cedure means people as young as 16 may now donate a portion of their liver, Dr. Grant says. Liver patients face the second-longest wait in Canada, after kidney patients. While younger donors don’t face any more risk, “it may be more difficult to ensure they comprehend” all of the benefits and risks involved, says Dr. Grant. The hospital performs about 150 liver transplants a year from live and deceased donors. Live-donor liver transplantation has a 30 per cent risk of complications, with an estimated five out of 1,000 donors losing their lives. Ms. Gregory’s surgery came five days after Mother’s Day. Before she was wheeled into the operat- ing room, she took her dad’s hand, held it tightly and told him the first thing she wanted to hear when she woke up was that Trey was OK. She woke up 28 hours later and through a haze, saw her dad crying. “I panicked. ... I thought something had happened to Trey,” says Ms. Gregory, her voice shaking. It turned out those were tears of joy -- her dad was relieved that she had woken up. “Trey was well, he said,” Ms. Gregory recalls. “That’s all I needed to know.” As Ms. Gregory waxes eloquent about her son, Trey sits in a corner of the liv- ing room quietly answering questions. He reluctantly shows his 23-centimetre scar -- it looks like a hockey stick running from his lower abdomen to chest. It takes more prodding before Trey shows his medals for football, karate, math and javelin throw. Trey, who will have regular checkups for the next 10 years, says he missed the rugby finals at school but is grateful he will have enough time to recuperate before football starts in September. He is also part of his school’s athletic team. Ms. Gregory is still frail, on pain medica- tion and needs a cane to walk around the house. A few days after the transplant, she jok- ingly asked Trey what he wanted in return for the liver. One million dollars, he said. They’ve settled for a Caribbean cruise some time soon.

The club was formed two years ago when Deepa Vora and her hus- band were looking for other children their sons could play against. “They typically ended up playing with us and it’s not as exciting or interesting for them,” said Ms. Vora. Seeing the limited number of chess clubs in the area, they decid- ed to start their own, using facilities at the Pickering Petticoat Creek Library. As schools primarily focus on athletic competitions, they wanted to give children an outlet to compete with their minds. “The kids are really excited, they want to compete,” she said. “They don’t seem to get tired of it, they want more.” A fan of the game for two years now, 13-year-old Zaffras Nawaz recently joined the club. “There are a lot of people who are really good at chess (in the club),” he said. “Now I get to learn more strategies.” But he also said joining the club doesn’t have to be competitive. “You can come and just have fun with your friends.” To learn more about the club: EmaIl aboutchess@gmail.com CoMMuniTy Pickering youth compete with their minds peTer redMan pHoTos PICKERING -- Rahitha Ramachanthiran, six, (photo above) and leeam Ng, 10, (photo at right) ponder their next moves during a chess tour- nament hosted by the Pickering Chess Club July 17.

The church is hosting an anniversary party on Saturday, July 23 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. “It’s our first year and we are the first Cop- tic church in Pickering,” said Salwa Tadros, a secretary at the church. “We are just happy that it’s been a year and we want to invite everyone to celebrate.” The church was established after the con- gregation of St. Mary and St. Abraam Coptic Orthodox Church of Ajax grew too large for the building. To celebrate the one-year mark, the church will be offering games, food, enter- tainment and activities throughout the day as well as sale tables offering gifts, books, jewelry and more. The celebrations will be held on site at the church at 980 Kingston Road in Pickering.

Here's a list of summer safety reminders from Enbridge Gas Distribution: Safety in the Yard When planning projects that require digging, such as planting a tree or building a fence, remem- ber that natural gas and other utility lines could be buried in your yard. It's the law to locate buried natural gas lines before you dig. Contact Ontario One Call at 1–800–400–2255 or www.on1call. com at least one week before you start. After you call, they'll come out to your property to locate underground lines, mark them and leave a locate sheet providing instructions on how to safely proceed. Make sure you landscape carefully near gas meters and regulators. Never raise the level of a garden so that soil touches your meter or regulator. Doing so could result in corrosion and cause a gas leak. Safety when working on a Sewer Service line If you need to clear a blocked sewer line beyond the walls of your home or business, it's very important that before any work starts, you or your plumber contact Ontario One Call at 1–800– 400–2255. Otherwise, you could be putting yourself, your family and neighbours at risk. It's ex- tremely important to make sure that no natural gas line intersects the sewer line before attempting to clear it. Ontario One Call offers free natural gas sewer safety inspections on behalf of Enbridge Gas Distribution throughout its service area, even if you are not a natural gas customer. Safety by the Pool If you have not done so already, it’s time to have your pool heater serviced. Pool heaters, like other fuel–burning equipment, need to be maintained regularly to work safely and efficiently. Contact a licensed heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) contractor for service and questions to ensure your pool heater continues working throughout the summer. Safety before you Barbecue With grilling season upon us, it's a great time to review your manufacturer's instructions for the maintenance and use of your barbecue. Give it a thorough inspection so it keeps working for you Summer safety checklist well into the fall. Safety in a Flood Heavy rain in the summer months can increase the possibility of water main breaks and sewer backups. With your safety in mind, never enter any flooded areas. If you're experiencing a flood, don't attempt to restart your natural gas appliances until you've had them inspected. Natural gas appliances (including furnaces, boilers and water heaters) that have been submerged, partially submerged, come into contact with water, or had their gas controls or electrical cords come into contact with water are considered unsafe and must not be used until inspected by a licensed HVAC contractor. Remember – always call your local gas utility if you smell natural gas or suspect damage to natu- ral gas equipment due to flooding. Safety at the Door Always ask for identification when someone visits your home. When Enbridge Gas Distribution employees or contractors visit to read or relocate a meter, complete construction work or provide free energy efficiency upgrades, they always carry identification (ID). The ID includes our logo, the representative's name, photo and the company name. If someone comes to your door indicat- ing they are there to provide services on behalf of Enbridge, or your local utility, always ask to see their ID before you let them into your home.

Geordie Lishman’s Hidden Worlds Artist’s exhibition opens in oshawa nAthAn MAcKinnon newsroom@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- There are Hidden Worlds to explore at The Rob- ert McLaughlin Gallery in artist Geordie Lishman’s show. The exhibition of his sculp- tures, along with another exhib- it, Fierce: Women’s Hot Blooded Film/Video, was launched at the gallery’s latest First Fridays event on July 8. The event, held on the first Fri- day of every month, transforms the space into a free entertain- ment venue with various musical acts to enjoy while browsing art. Gabrielle Peacock, CEO of the gallery, says the events are about providing a place for people to experience art in a new way and to provide a more relaxed feel to the gallery. Lishman’s Hidden Worlds is at the gallery until Sept. 4. More than 400 people attended the opening, which featured musical performances from Boom, Bust and Echo and Kate Boothman. The exhibition features a collec- tion of metal and mixed-media sculptures ranging from a small piece that resembles a well with an infinite view to a horse that towers over the rest, nearly touch- ing the gallery’s high ceiling. Lishman says the show is meant to inspire people to look beyond their present understanding and to keep their eyes, minds and hearts open. “Make sure you look really care- fully because there are lots of mysteries,” he told the crowd at the opening. “There are lots of secret little things I’ve placed in there just subtly so that you might keep looking closely.” The pieces he’s showing aren’t just stationary. Lishman says there’s an interactive element to some, which serves to remove a certain sterility that exists within galleries. “I think participation and appre- ciation are quite hand in hand. To reach somebody on a more inti- mate and personal level you have to include their thoughts and feel- ings,” Lishman says. “So, essentially, when they’re operating that piece of artwork they’re becoming part of it.” With the turn of a crank, the winged horse with a sphinx head runs and flaps its wings while all See LISHMAN page 21 Live Music Rocket Man landing in Oshawa in September elton John plays GM centre sept. 9; tickets go on sale Friday at 10 a.m. OSHAWA -- One of the biggest legends in popular music history is coming to Oshawa. The Rocket Man, Elton John, holds court at the General Motors Cen- tre on Sept. 9. The stats testify to the remark- able success of John's 40-plus year musi- cal career: 35 gold and 25 platinum albums, 29 straight Top 40 hits, and more than 250 million records sold across the globe. But the numbers don't show the unique place the pop star has in popular music and cul- ture. His timeless songs are some of the most recognizable in music, including Your Song, Daniel, and Rocket Man. His Candle in the Wind ’97 is the top-selling single of all time, selling 37 mil- lion copies. John is performing a solo show at 8 p.m. In addition to many of his clas- sic hits, John will play songs from The Union, his highly acclaimed album with Leon Russell. Tickets go on sale July 22 at 10 a.m. Tickets are available at the GM Centre Box Office by calling 1-877-436-8811, at generalmo- torscentre.com, and www.live- nation.com or at the United Way Info Kiosk at the Oshawa Cen- tre.

Some of the pieces include many differ- ent materials, but the prevalent medium is metal. Lishman says his father and his appren- tice taught him metal working when he was younger and he likes working with it because of its permanence. His father, Bill, is an artist as well, but he’s also known for founding Operation Migration, an organi- zation that helps create migratory paths for birds. The artistic influence doesn’t just come from one parent: his mother, Paula Lish- man, is a well-known fur fashion design- er. Lishman says his mother’s stamina and longevity in her industry inspires him a great deal. Although Hidden Worlds showcases his metal work, Lishman spent many years travelling the world doing on-the-spot spray paint paintings for money. After his worldly travels he set up shop in a studio in Ajax in a family home built in the 19th century. Lishman teaches at Durham College in the Fine Art and Design program. Several of his students, such as Judith McNiven, were at the opening to support their teach- er and experience the work. “The exhibit is over the top but it’s so him because he’s a big guy. His work is big and he has a big heart,” said McNiven said. “There’s soul in all of this. All of these pieces are brought to life.” LISHMAN from page 20 Lishman travelled the world as a spray paint artist Rockin’ the square AJAX -- Johnny and the Cruizers’ guitar player danced with Rachel Smit and Melanie Ruttle during the Summer in the Square concert series at the Ajax Town Hall Heritage Square July 13.

Pickering's Christina Doucette has penned Gordon's Treasure!: A Sparkle Cove Adven- ture. The children's story came out of real life, according to a press release. "Early in his language development, Douc- ette’s son would often say 'I keep you,' which was his way of saying 'I love you',” it states. "Building upon this cute idea, Doucette craft- ed an imaginative world populated with fun characters and magical whimsies. The main character is a young water dragon named Gordon, who takes the reader on a special treasure hunt to Sparkle Cove, an enchanted and wonderful place full of things for Gor- don to 'keep.'

GM Paul st. John less than impressed following loss shawn cayLey scayley@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- It’s been a frustrating season for the Ajax Rock, and the man who runs the show, coach and general manager Paul St. John, boiled over following anoth- er loss Wednesday night. As St. John walked off the Iro- quois Park Sports Centre floor fol- lowing his team’s 17-6 loss to the Brooklin Redmen, he engaged an in animated exchange with refer- ee Jason Wiswell -- who was part- nered on the night with Bill Fox -- for what he felt at the time was a series of non-calls during the game that ended up favouring the victors. And while little of what St. John said following the game was fit for print, after trying to sleep off his team’s 16th loss in 19 games, Thursday morning he reflected on what had transpired. “They are both good referees and realistically when you look at the game sheet, it was a pretty evenly called game but the hard part for us is we don’t come out with the slash, hack and whack kind of game,” a more reserved St. John explained. “We try to play for the most part, clean crosscheck defence. I am watching players on Brooklin take four and five swings at our guy with the ball and that’s illegal. All we want is consistency called and there should have been penalties that weren’t called.” St. John felt if some of those calls were made in the early going, his club may have had a better chance to pull one out and head into tonight’s regular season fina- le on a high note. “Those penalties would have happened when the game was tight and if they are called, who knows?,” he said, noting the game was only 3-2 in favour of Brook- lin after one period before a 9-2 second period put the game out of reach. “If our power play gets hot then maybe ... we’re up 6-3 instead of down 6-3. That’s the thing that is tough in this whole game and I am not the only coach that shares that frustration a lot of nights because the refereeing has been inconsistent. I am not afraid to say that.” Not surprisingly on the other side, Redmen coach/GM Wayne Colley didn’t find any fault in the way the job was done by Wiswell and Fox, who both referee in the National Lacrosse League over the winter. “I thought it was OK referee- ing. They did a good job,” he said. “If we are playing Six Nations or Peterborough it would have been way worse with the whack and hack. It’s called both ways. I’ve got no complaints whatsoever.” What he did have was praise for his club in the way it turned things up in the second and third periods, erasing any chance the Rock might have been able to pull another upset out like they did the last time the two clubs met on July 8. “We played well. The first peri- od they stayed with us, but in the second we basically changed gears and away we went and never looked back after that,” said Colley. As much as the hacking and slashing got to St. John over the course of the night, so too did the fact Brooklin, in his estimation, continued to pound away on the scoresheet. “It got a little frustrating because Brooklin didn’t pull back, I mean, they continued to try and score right up until the end of the game and that gets a little frustrating for a coach when you’re on the losing end of a blowout,” said St. John, who replaced starting goalie Tyler Carlson with call up Tyler MacK- endrick after the 16th Brooklin goal. Having said that, St. John did credit Brooklin for a well-execut- ed game plan. “Brooklin played well. They moved the ball well last night. They ran really well. They used their bench well, which they nor- mally do at home. And they beat us. We had an off night from the goaltender on out in the second and third periods and that was the ball game,” he said. Meanwhile, rather than reflect on the win that helped his club move to 13-7, Colley elected to take a look ahead to tonight’s game and what could be a first- round playoff bye with another victory over the Rock. “We’ve had a pretty good sea- son this year and our goal now is to get a bye in the first round, take a week off to recoup and have a mini training camp and see who we’re playing in the playoffs,” said Colley. notes Shawn Williams paced the Brooklin offence with four goals and eight points and takes 38-76-114 totals into tonight’s game ... Kyle Buchanan scored three times and had four assists, while Derek Hopcroft added four goals and two assists. Other Redmen goals were scored by Matt Holman and Geoff McNulty with a pair along with Jeff Gilbert and Kevin Brownell ... Aaron Bold got the win in goal ... Leading the Ajax offence was Jordan McIntosh with 2-2-4 totals, while Jason Mainer added two goals with one each from Dilan Graham and Travis Bland, who also had two assists ... Kyle Termini was handed a double game misconduct at the conclusion of the game, and Paul St. John believes that will come with a four-game suspension, leaving his team with their toughest player heading into the playoffs ... Tonight’s game at the Ajax Community Centre starts at 8 p.m. we had an off night from the goaltenders on out in the second and third periods and that was the ball game. Rock GM Paul St. John durhamregion.comNews Advertiser • July 22, 201125 AP Golf Pickering’s Connor Pestell impressive on the links local athlete picks up another medal at golf tournament in Innisfil PICKERING -- Connor Pestell of Pickering recently captured his second medal and sixth top ten finish of the year in the Canadi- an Junior Golf Association tour- nament held at the Innisfil Golf Club. The nine-year-old was able to hold off the field of predominantly 10 year olds with birdies on three of the final four holes to vault him into a second place finish and a silver medal. This is Pestell’s second season on the Canadian Junior Golf Asso- ciation circuit and, as evidenced by the results, he continues to improve with each tournament. The biggest improvement has been in the short game. That ele- ment was on display at this event, as his improved play in that area led to four hole outs from off the green, including a hole out for birdie on the 17th. Pestell is a student at Maple Ridge Public School will be enter- ing Grade 5 in this fall. He spends his practice time refining his game at both Deer Creek Golf Academy in Ajax and The Devils Den Golf Centre, which is located in Whitby. Pestell’s first medal came last month in Little Britain during an event played at Deer Run Golf Course. This weekend’s event is being held in Cambridge at Brookfield, while the last one for the month of July will be held at Kings Bay in Seagrave July 27. The series culminates with the tour championship Aug. 30 and Sept. 1. CelIa Klemenz / metroland flagged down RAGLAN -- In a U10 flag rugby game, Jade Stewart-Futter of the Ajax Wanderers, was flagged by Alexander Lee, of the Mississauga Blues as Wanderers teammate Lauren Kennington, left, watched for a pass.

The team started off the tourna- ment against Burlington 2 with an amazing victory, coming back from a 6-3 second-period deficit to win the game 8-6. West Durham then rallied to face Oakville 2 and tied the game 5-5. With the success in the first two games, the Rock earned a bye to the semifinal against Sudbury, where the Rock once again emerged with a victory, downing the opposition 6-3 to book a spot in the final. Their success continued in the big game, facing the same Oakville 2 team that they tied earlier in the tournament. This time around it wasn’t even close as the Rock scored a 9-3 victory to capture gold. The players on the team include Stephen Bell, Tommy Turcotte, Elliot Goulah, Zack Elliott, Nolan Keats, Jarrett Goodwin, Nick Bro- chu, Chad Corrigan, Wayne Vil- leneuve, Andrew Plummer, Troy O’Halloran, James Christofora- tos, Nick Elliott, Evan Bryan, Cart- er Law, Cole Reimer and Nathan Gooch.

Those that bring in their coins will be able to speak with collectors one on one and have their coins looked at by a specialist. With the help of these ICC members, offers will be made to those that have coins made before 1965. Offers will be made based on silver or gold content and the rarity of the coins. All coins made before 1965 will be examined and purchased including gold coins, silver coins, silver dollars, all types of nickels and pennies. Those that decide to sell their coins will be paid on the spot. If you are like a lot of people you might have a few old coins or even a coffee can full lying around. If you have ever wondered what they are worth now might be your chance to find out and even sell them if you choose. They could be worth a lot according to the International Coin Collectors also known as ICC. Collectors will pay a fortune for some coins and currency for their collections. If it is rare enough, one coin could be worth over $100,000 according to Eric Helms, coin collector and ICC member. One ultra rare dime, an 1894S Barber sold for a record $1.9 million to a collector in July of 2007. While that is an extreme example, many rare and valuable coins are stashed away in dresser drawers or lock boxes around the countr y.The ICC and its collector members have organized a traveling event in search of all types of coins and currency.Even common coins can be worth a significant amount due to the high price of silver and gold. says Helms.Washington quarters and Roosevelt dimes can be worth many times their face value. Recent silver markets have driven the price up on even common coins made of silver. Helms explains that all half dollars, quarters and dimes made before 1965 contain 90% silver and are sought after any time silver prices rise. Right now it’s a sellers market he said. The rarest coins these collectors are looking for include $20, $10, $5 and $2 1/2 gold coins and any coin made before 1850. These coins always bring big premiums according to the ICC. Silver dollars are also very sought after nowadays. OthertypesofitemstheICCwillbepurchasing during this event include U.S. currency,gold bullion, investment gold, silver bars, silver rounds, proof sets, etc. Even foreign coins are sought after and will be purchased. Also at this event anyone can sell their gold jewelry,dental gold or anything made of gold on the spot. Gold is currently trading at over $1,500.00 per ounce near an all time high. Bring anything you think might be gold and the collectors will examine, test and price it for free. If you decide to sell, you will be paid on the spot –it has been an unknown fact that coin dealers have always paid more for jewelr y and scrap gold than other jewelers and pawn brokers. So whether you have one coin you think might be valuable or a large collection you recently inherited, you can talk to these collectors for free and if your’re lucky you may have a rarity worth thousands. Either way there is nothing to lose and it sounds like fun!
