The park has been re-opened after shutting down for a month while the City cleaned up after mercury was found in April. Pickering playground mercury free MOYA DILLON mdillon@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- As warm weather returns, children can once again play safely at Kinsman Park. The Pickering park, located on Sandy Beach Road, was closed in April after police discovered mercury spilled on the park’s play equipment. Following the incident, the equipment was decontaminated and then indepen- dently tested before the park reopened on May 10. “We had the Kinsmen Park equipment removed and taken to anoth- er facility for decontamination and test- ed to ensure there was no mercury resi- due,” said Rob Gagen, supervisor of parks operations for the City of Pickering.

The Transportation Safety Board of Canada finished what it needed to do at the site on May 12, spokesman Chris Krepski said. A ring of scorched forest floor sur- rounded the ruins of the four-seater AA5 Grumman, with pieces of the plane scat- tered in a remote part of the forest. Clarington Fire Chief Gord Weir was on scene, after the body of the pilot was removed, to ensure there were no smol- dering spots among the scorched trees that could spark into a forest fire. A mild winter has left Clarington firefighters battling a high numbers of grass fires this spring. “(The plane) was in pieces and parts of it burned up. It’s fortunate there was some rain a few days before. The fire spread out over some pine but the ground was wet,” said Chief Weir. The search for the aircraft came to a sad conclusion on May 10 when the plane, along with the body of its 61-year-old pilot, was found in the forest, four kilo- metres northwest of Elizabethville. The site of the crash is not visible from main trail routes or roadways. The path to the site takes many turns through dense forest. The trees and ground immediately around the plane crash site are burned. The fire was contained to a small part of the forest. It was raining and foggy on the evening of May 7 when the plane came down. During the search period, military air assets including two CH-146 Griffon heli- copters and two CC-130 Hercules air- craft from 424 Squadron at 8 Wing Tren- ton, and one CC-130 Hercules aircraft from 435 Squadron at 17 Wing Winnipeg assisted with the effort. Several civilian aircraft from various locations in Ontario and Quebec joined in the search. The Ganaraska Forest remained open to visitors, said Amy Griffiths, market- ing and communications officer for the Ganaraska Region Conservation Author- ity. The flags were at half mast on May 12. “Our thoughts are with the pilot’s fam- ily at this difficult time,” said Linda Lal- iberte, GRCA’s chief administrative offi- cer. “We ask that all users of the Ganaras- ka Forest please respect the needs of the police officers and other officials as they investigate this accident by not attempt- ing to visit the crash site during the inves- tigation.” The search for the downed plane began after the pilot failed to arrive as scheduled at Buttonville Airport. He had departed from St. Mathieu De Beloeil in Quebec at 6:40 p.m. on May 7, and was scheduled to arrive at Buttonville Airport at 11 p.m. viEw the photo gallery @ durhamregion.com air Crash Downed plane rests amid scorched earth Karen LongweLL / MetroLand CAMPBELLCROFT -- The wreckage of a four-seater AA5 Grumman plane was scat- tered in a remote part of the Ganaraska Forest.

A distraught Kevin Walther sat hunched forward in the prisoner’s dock with his head in his hands, occasionally weeping, during his bail hearing Friday morning in Oshawa. Justice of the peace Duncan Read ordered Mr. Walther released on a $20,000 bond into the custody of his par- ents, with whom he will live in Scarbor- ough. Evidence presented during the hearing is subject to a publication ban. An arrest was made Wednesday after a month-long investigation during which an officer posed online as a 14-year-old girl, Durham police said. The suspect engaged in dialogue with the undercover cop, eventually arranging a meeting at a residence in Durham, police said. When the accused showed up for the rendez- vous he found officers waiting. Mr. Walther faces charges including lur- ing, attempted invitation to sexual touch- ing and possession of child pornography. Terms of his release prohibit him from having access to a computer or being in a location frequented by children. He is not to leave his residence without being accompanied by one of his sureties. Mr. Walther, 40, returns to court June 4.

While the number of infractions seems high -- 16 of 37 trucks were pulled off the road over safety concerns -- that’s in part because of rigorous standards, said Ser- geant Jeff Galipeau. “The level of non-compliance (from Wednesday’s blitz) is about average to what we find when we do these blitzes,” Sgt. Gal- ipeau said. “It is high, but the standards are high as well.” The inspection blitz, undertaken by Dur- ham’s traffic services unit in conjunction with provincial inspectors, found a range of equipment-related problems including brakes and tires in need of replacement or repair and improper towing techniques. Administrative issues included incomplete inspections and certifications. The unannounced inspection blitz saw 20 charges laid against drivers and truck owners and five licence plates were seized, police said. Ministry of Environment inspectors laid five charges under the Envi- ronmental Protection Act. poLICE Trucks pulled off road during Pickering safety blitz PICKERING -- A driver was airlifted to hos- pital after a two-vehicle crash that closed a Pickering road for several hours Friday evening. The 20-year-old Port Perry woman has since been released from St. Michael’s hos- pital in Toronto, and Durham police say charges are pending in the crash that shut down Brock Road at Whitevale Road. Police said the Port Perry woman was northbound in a Chevrolet Optra just after 6 p.m. when the car crossed into the south- bound lanes and was struck on the pas- senger side by an oncoming Chev pick-up driven by a 48-year-old Whitby man. Both vehicles were overturned by the force of the collision, with the Optra on its roof in a ditch and the pick-up on its side on the shoulder of the road. The driver of the Optra was extricated and airlifted to hospital in Toronto. The driver of the pick-up wasn’t injured. Police continue to investigate and want to hear from witnesses.

Congratulations to the youth at Pickering High School for their tan-free prom cam- paign! It’s important to eliminate indoor tan- ning from your lifestyle but it’s also impor- tant to examine your skin for damage already done. A change in the appearance of a mole can usually indicate melanoma. Melanoma is a deadly form of skin cancer. Aim at melanoma, an online site, claims that people under 45 make up 25 per cent of all melanoma cases and says melano- ma is the leading cause of cancer deaths among women aged 25-30. Young women are more likely to tan, especially around prom season. This makes them particularly vulnerable. One in 10 Ontario youths from ages 12 to 17 are now tanning by artificial means, according to the article. Exposure to UV rays indoors and out- doors is the major risk factor for melano- ma. Melanoma prevention and detection should be highly emphasized. It looks as if it’s going to be a sunny summer -- take care. Angela Ward Ajax Parking Perception of ‘laziness’ is wrong To the editor: Re: ‘Reader’s sense of entitlement is irk- some’, letter to the editor, News Advertiser, May 9, 2012. I am irked at the sense of entitlement of the writer. I am the parent of a busy, curious, intel- ligent 3 1⁄2 year old boy who is excited at everything. ADHD and ODD run in both sides of the family. The prospect of a car ride or a trip to the store frequently results in him rushing off, refusing to hold my hand, wriggling out of my hand and not paying attention. I often have to deal with tantrums at the mere mention of putting him in a cart to do shopping at the local grocery or depart- ment store. The ‘expectant parent’ or ‘parent with small child’ parking spaces aren’t there because parents have an overdeveloped sense of entitlement. With the huge number of children who are being diagnosed with behavioral con- ditions at younger and younger ages, these spaces are for the safety of us and our chil- dren, not for catering to your misperceived notion of our “laziness”. There seems to be a generation of driv- ers with an overdeveloped sense of entitle- ment when it comes to their right to drive whatever way they want, without the care for the safety of others on our roads and in shopping plaza parking lots. S.M. Wells Ajax Litigation One taxpayer group sues another To the editor: Re: ‘Settlement proposed in $40-million lawsuit against Region of Durham’, news, durhamregion.com, April 276, 2012. I was having a pretty good week until I was reminded in your recent article about that memory stick lost by Durham offi- cials. Now I’m ticked off again. This is ridicu- lous. It all boils down to some lawyers look- ing for their 25 per cent cut to encourage a small group of taxpayers to sue a larger group of taxpayers of which we are all one and the same. My name was on the list, and so was my wife’s; we have suffered no financial loss or privacy issues so far and probably never will. I believe either a lawyer found this mem- ory stick, which explains why they were able to contact us so fast to sue everbody, or it was the duct cleaning company who calls us every few days at dinner time. I’d sooner deal with the duct cleaning compa- ny; at least they work for a living. As for the employee who lost the mem- ory stick, he/she should be reprimanded, suspended or fired for being so stupid to admit he/she lost it in the first place.

As Japanese political leaders and nucle- ar industry experts continue the cleanup at the disabled Fukushima Dai-ichi power plant that suffered a meltdown following the devastating tsunami of March 2011, nuclear officials here at home have been busy in the intervening year running stress tests on its CANDU reactors and nuclear power plants in Durham Region. The good news is that the local plants proved robust and durable during the tests. The better news is that the Fukushi- ma meltdown forced OPG to reconsider its traditional perspective and, as Mark Elliott, chief nuclear engineer for Durham’s Dar- lington and Pickering stations, noted, “... we have to be ready for emergencies more severe than we’ve traditionally looked at ...” OPG notes several factors, not least of which is the vastly different engineering of Canadian reactors, were looked at during the stress tests and the CANDU reactors performed well in every case. But the exercise is vital to OPG as it pre- pares for an ambitious expansion at Dar- lington, and to the public who must be secure in the knowledge that they live in the shadow of the safest nuclear reactors in the industry. And the year-long effort to test and re- test is about much more than hard safety features built into Canada’s nuclear reac- tors and redundant systems in the nation’s nuclear power plants in a bid to improve existing safety margins. To that end, nuclear sites are equipped with alternate cooling systems for stand- by generators, cranes to remove debris, diesel-powered pumps and generators and more. Communication protocols were also updated to ensure that, in the event of a nuclear emergency, officials can react more efficiently and the public can be evacuated more quickly. As well, OPG says it is working to build a regional emergency response centre in conjunction with Bruce Power. There is always a risk with the creation of nuclear power, to be sure. But Canada has built an impressive safety record with its reactors and its nuclear energy plants. Residents across Durham Region are invit- ed to contact OPG to learn more about the safety upgrades and other mitigation efforts. The Japanese tsunami and subsequent nuclear reactor meltdown was a devastat- ing event. But the lessons learned on the other side of the world are finding real- world applications here at home to ensure the safety of Durham Region residents. We live in a frighteningly litigious age. Schools, in particular, and really any insti- tution that deals with the training and/or care and education of children seem to be completely at the mercy of lunatic parents and jumpy, knee-jerk-prone politicians. Witness the recent ban on high jump in the Lambton-Kent District School Board. One tragic, yet remarkably singular, mortal- ity in decades of this track and field event and, out of the blue, the decision is made to eradicate it completely. As though high jumping was suddenly akin to shooting her- oin or drunk driving. Never mind the hundreds or thousands of kids whose self-esteem, confidence and physical and mental health would’ve thrived because participating in something like the high jump allowed them to face and overcome fears, realize their own remark- able potential and revel in the incredible agility of their bodies. Those kids, apparent- ly, don’t count. Those experiences, appar- ently, aren’t that important. Whatever hap- pened to the needs of the many outweigh- ing the few? Battered into submission by the squeaky wheel getting the grease...if you’ll pardon the overdose of axioms. Better to flat-line our children’s lives, I guess. Take all the bumps and curves out of the road for them. Safety over challenge. Boredom over risk. Existence over life. This trend towards bubble-wrapping our kids is, unfortunately, not new, but it has been growing at an alarming rate. The tail is wag- ging the dog like never before. Know any- one in the education field? Talk to them about what it’s like working in the system these days. Even better, ask them how they feel about pushy, overbearing parents who have dropped the ball so badly with their own children that their only response is to blame everyone and everything else for their kids’ issues. Want something or some- one removed from your kid’s school? Wave your arms, make a stink and call a lawyer. Odds are you’ll get what you want. Just make sure everyone thinks you’re doing it for the children. I’ve said it a million times: ‘parent’ is a verb and you don’t do it over the phone. You do it at home, in real time, with your kid. But I digress. One of the best things about the human body is that for the first 20 or 30 years of our lives it’s almost indestructible. We can take a lot of physical abuse. We can cut, scrape, bruise and break ourselves in a million ways and still heal up as good as new. I myself have broken several bones, had numerous surgeries, been stitched in various plac- es and even survived a stabbing. I come from a planet where children were actually encouraged to rough-house, to play outside, to climb trees, fall down and get back up again. We ran at recess! Knocked each other down and helped each other up. We played tackle football and British Bulldog. We tore our clothes, covered ourselves in scabs and grass stains and were happier than pigs in sh*t. Sometimes we hurt ourselves. Most of us have a scar here and there, a false tooth, a trick knee...that’s how we know we’re from the same planet. And what is life without a good story to tell? What legacies are we robbing our children of by taking all of the edges off of their lives? What stories will this gauzed and sterile generation tell each other years from now at reunions and get-togethers? ‘Hey, remember the time we got crazy and walked quickly to study hall?’ Wow. Good times. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m 7 AP Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 1 6 , 2 0 1 2 HOT TOPICS: A knight in Durham....

The pre-work for the Olym- pics is made difficult because a lot of ath- letes don’t qualify until just a few months before the Games. And once they do qual- ify, they are usually off to some other part of the world for training. So tracking them down so we can do pre-interviews and letting them know we will be there takes a lot of time. It’s a lot of work but it is always worth it. Local community newspapers rarely get to do this type of global coverage so when the opportunity presents itself we jump at it. But we want to do more than just tell the stories of the athletes and their families. If you are heading to the Olympics, we want to hear from you. We want our read- ers to see and read about London through the eyes of other Durham residents. We want to read your stories, see your photos and watch your videos. Are you planning a trip to Buckingham Palace, looking forward to your first pint of Guinness or trying mushy peas and chips for the first time? We want you to share the experience with our readers. Contact us at newsroom@durhamre- gion.com and let us know you are mak- ing the trip over the pond to cheer on our athletes and take in the sights and sounds of London. We’ll get in touch with you to see how you can share your trip with others. Let’s go Canada! -- Managing editor Mike Johnston is anxiously awaiting the Olympic Games du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 1 6 , 2 0 1 2 8 P “All of the base wood chip material was also removed and replaced and tested for mercury vapour. Once all the testing came back negative we re-installed the play unit and the park is now open once again.” Mr. Gagen said the clean-up would have been faster but ended up taking just under a month as staff waited for scientific testing to be completed. The playground, howev- er, is now “absolutely” open for business and Mr. Gagen assured parents that they can feel “100-per cent safe” letting their children use the play equipment. Area mother Angela Ladurantaye was grateful to see the park had reopened when she drove by with her two sons on May 11. “My son was asking if we could go to the blue park, so I took a drive by,” she said, noting her son calls Kinsman Park the “blue park” due to the colour of its slide. The boys, ages four and 16 months, were happy to be back, although older brother Logan was a little taken aback to see some cobwebs had formed on the equipment during the closure. “This is easier for us,” Ms. Ladurantaye continued, noting they normally visit the park three times a week. “The kids really enjoy it and it’s bigger than other parks in the area so it’s nice to have it back, I know a lot of people who use it.” Water Sports, Storewide Clearance MOUNT KIRBY SKIS & BOARDSOUTDOOR ADVENTURE STORE Website: wwwmountkirbyskisandboards.com E-mail: mountkirby@bellnet.ca 495 Taunton Rd.

A request for rezoning was discussed at a public meeting on May 7, where the developers outlined plans to build five three-storey homes on a lot on Stonepath Circle, which currently has one structure left over from an old farm property. “We want to create a streetscape that’s attractive, safe and promotes social inter- action within the neighbourhood,” said Angella Blanas, whose family are the owners of the land and applicants for the project. Ms. Blanas said the homes are being constructed for herself, her parents and her siblings, and that although they plan to make the homes three storeys, they would remain within the 12-metre height limit for residential zoning. Residents came forward to share numer- ous complaints with Pickering council- lors, including the height of the homes, the proposed 30-foot frontages, the num- ber of homes on the lot and design. “I always knew the lot next door would be developed, I understand that and I’m OK with it, but I anticipated and expected it would be three houses,” said Dale Pear- son, who has lived in the house next door to the lot for 21 years. He cited the three water service connec- tions and the numbering of the houses on either side of the lot as indications that only three homes should be built there. “Three-floor homes are not in keeping with our neighbourhood,” he continued. “In our neighbourhood they would totally stand out like a sore thumb.” The neighbourhood is a mix of single- family homes and semi-detached town- houses. Neighbours argued that the sin- gle-family homes immediately surround- ing the lot have frontages of 50 feet, and that the proposed frontage of 30 feet would not be in keeping with the layout of the neighbourhood. “The interest of any developer is always to maximize the land,” said neighbour Lloyd Lumby. “But our interest as people who live there is to have something con- gruent with the neighbourhood, some- thing that fits in.” A staff information report identified several areas for further analysis regard- ing the proposal, including the appropri- ateness of the number of dwellings and the frontages, establishing development standards in keeping with the character of the neighbourhood and appropriate site layout. A report on the proposal will come back to the planning and development com- mittee for consideration at a future meet- ing.

At the Regional Council meeting on April 4, 2012,Regional Council passed a by-law to select the Regional Chair by general vote for future elections.The next step in the process is circulating the by-law to Councils of the lower-tier municipalities in Durham Region for their consideration. The City of Pickering Council will be considering this item at the May 22, 2012 Council Meeting.If you have questions or wish to appear as a delegation to speak on this matter, please contact Linda Roberts at lroberts@pickering.ca. NoticeRegionalChair to Election by General Vo te By-law The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), an invasive insect that attacks and kills only ash trees, has recently been detected in west Pickering. Large ash trees on private property are at risk.To mitigate the infestation, all Pickering homeowners who have ash trees are advised to look for signs of infestation such as “D”shaped exit holes on the tree trunk; signs of woodpecker damage; and/or thinning near the top or ‘c rown’of the tree. If EAB is detected early enough, or if the ash tree appears healthy, the tree may be treated with TreeAzin (a naturally occurring bio insecticide), which has shown to be effective in controlling EAB and keeping ash trees alive and healthy.If a tree is heavily infested (more than a third of the crown has died off ), the City recommends removal for safety reasons and to prevent the continued EAB spread. Residents with a heavily infected ash tree should contact a certified arborist for proper removal.Trees that are taken down can be burned in home woodstoves and replaces, but cannot be taken as firewood to a cottage or campground outside of a federally regulated area.

DURHAM -- It’s broad daylight and a group of young people are huddled around a building, brandishing cans of spray paint with no attempt to conceal their identities. While not a common scene in most areas, residents of Uxbridge in north Durham have been seeing this picture recreated more and more in recent years. Members of the local youth centre are waging war on negative forms of graffiti by replacing tags, often found scribbled on walls of vari- ous businesses by vandals, with impressive works of art. “Companies approach us and ask if we can paint a mural (on their building) and they give us an outline of what they want but leave it open for our own artistic inter- pretation,” says Jake Walterhouse, 14. “It gives us a real sense of accomplish- ment when a mural is all done and you watch the person who wanted it done react.” THUMP (The Uxbridge Mural Project) was launched two years ago to encourage youth to use graffiti for good, steering them away from acts of vandalism, says Uxbridge Youth Centre director Vanessa Slater. “It gives the youth in town a creative and productive outlet because there is interest in this type of arm form and some of the kids are incred- ibly talented at it.” Jason Kucherawy, a guide with Tour Guys in Toronto, who has a degree in cultural anthropology and fine art, says he’s always been fasci- nated by street art and its ability to trans- form the urban landscape. “One of the great things about graffiti is it’s art and colour in areas that you don’t expect, so there’s that surprise element,” he says. “You walk around the corner or you look down alleyways to see splashes of colour and design. “It’s an indication that there’s a rising cre- ative community presence.” He points to Rush Lane -- a strip better known as “Graf- fiti Alley” that runs south of Queen Street West in Toron- to -- as an example of how municipalities everywhere can allow positive forms of graffiti art to flourish. “Businesses are starting to learn that they can reduce the amount of tagging and throw-ups, the types of graffiti that the public isn’t really into, by getting graffiti artists who are talented and respected to do murals on the walls.” Many local artists agree that tagging and other negative uses of graffiti tend to paint all artists of the style with the same brush. “A lot of people look at graffiti as foul language written on a wall but in the true sense of graffiti, it’s not really offensive if you look at it from an artistic point of view,” says Pickering artist Christopher LeBlanc, who has created commissioned murals all across Ontario. “If it’s a mural and it’s tying the commu- nity together, I believe that’s becoming more popular and more accepted.” He and his wife Heidi Gabriela plan to display student art at their business, Ink Monkeys Art and Tattoo Studio, to promote positive forms of art among youth. Having evolved his own style from illegal to professional graffiti, Pickering artist Jeff Goring, also known as “Sonz,” is a cham- pion for inspiring creativity in the masses. He works with the City to co-ordinate pro- grams for youth and also runs graffiti work- shops to spread awareness about how the art form can be used positively. “A lot of it is just getting kids to try paint- ing with a can and showing them there are ways to do it legally so they’re not going to the bridges or mailboxes,” he says. “I want them to understand there’s so much more they can do with their art with- out being destructive.” view the photo gallery ReAD the rest of the series @ durhamregion.com Changing the writing on the wall MetroLand fiLe Photo UXBRiDGe -- Nathan Sachse, left, and Jake walterhouse, members of ThUMP, The Uxbridge Mural Project, discussed the next area to be painted. sabrina byrnes / MetroLand PiCKeRiNG -- Pickering graffiti artist Jeff Goring has an organization called Sonz of God and runs graffiti workshops. CeLia KLeMenz / MetroLand UXBRiDGe -- Artists, including Braden Lamoureux and vanessa Slater, of the Uxbridge Youth Centre, painted a mural over a graffiti-covered garage door on one of the buildings in elgin Park only to have it tagged again. They then painted another mural over the graffiti to depict the story of their efforts to keep the door graffiti-free.

Playing three games in as many days, the Jr. B lacrosse club came up with a win, but it was sand- wiched between a pair of losses to start and end the weekend. On the bright side, the victory was a convincing one, as the club beat Nepean 14-3 on Saturday. Again, on the bright side, the two losses were by a combined three goals, with the Ironheads falling 13-11 to Mimico on Friday and 7-6 to Gloucester Sunday. Of the two losses, the one-goal setback to Mimico at the Ajax Com- munity Centre on Sunday after- noon was the most disappoint- ing, said head coach Ron Reed. The winning goal was scored with just 19 seconds remaining in the game. “Sunday’s loss, you could almost chalk it up to fatigue,” said Reed. “We had three games in three days. I thought we played pretty sound, we just couldn’t finish on our offensive chances. “The opportunities were there, the work ethic was there, it just wasn’t meant to be.” Adam Kelusky had a big after- noon with three goals and two assists, giving him a team-lead- ing 17 points on 12 goals and five assists in the four games he has played. Goaltender Kadyn Pack also had a busy afternoon, fac- ing 58 Gloucester shots, while the Ironheads fired 36. Saturday night’s game in Ajax produced the only win of the three, with Kelusky again leading the way, this time with five goals and two assists in a 14-3 win. George Jimas, who sits second in the team scor- ing race with 13 points, chipped in with three goals and an assist. The weekend opened with a 13-11 loss for the Ironheads, who entered the third period tied 7-7 in Mimico, but were outscored 6-4 in the final 20 minutes by the Moun- taineers. Mimico scored twice in the final four minutes, including a short-handed goal with seven sec- onds left to close it out. Jimas led the offence with four goals and an assist, while Ryley Martinell and Easton McDonald had a goal and three assists each. Through five games, with a 2-3-0 record, Reed is starting to get a read on his team and likes the direction it is headed. “We’re getting there, slow but sure,” he said. “We still haven’t finalized our roster yet. We’re happy with our additions. We have a lot more rookies than we antici- pated. “We’re getting a good feel defen- sively. Offensively we’re surpris- ing ourselves. We’re better than we thought we were going to be. We’re pleased going forward.” After having a delayed start to the season, the Ironheads are paying for it now. A three-in-three week- end will be followed by another this weekend, hosting Newmarket Friday at 8 p.m., then travelling to Halton Hills Saturday and Orillia Sunday. “Some of this we are the author of our own misfortune, or our own success because several of our players are in the States at different schools,” said Reed, adding that a few others moved up to the Jr. A level, leaving a number of holes in the roster in the early going. The Ironheads are tied with Mis- sissauga and London for the few- est games played in the league thus far with five. THe SCOOP The Ironheads welcomed back Pat Gregoire from Medaille College (New York). Still away but expected back soon are Adam Zulak (Mars Hill College, North Carolina) and Julian Garritano (Sacred Heart University, Connecticut) ... Not returning to the fold this season is Mark Hilker, who captained the team last season. He is attending university in British Columbia and will be staying there for the summer ... After Friday’s home game against Newmarket, the Ironheads will be on the road for four straight, returning home Sunday, May 27. Kailen Sheridan, Nichelle Prince, Madeline Iozzi win silver at qualifying tournament DURHAM -- A silver-medal per- formance by Canada at the 2012 CONCACAF women’s U17 cham- pionship will be enough to send three local players to the FIFA U17 Women’s World Cup. Kailen Sheridan, Nichelle Prince and Madeline Iozzi were members of the Canadian team that came up just one goal short of winning the qualifying tour- nament in Guatemala, falling 1-0 to the United States in the cham- pionship game on Saturday. The Canadians controlled much of the play, but a miscue midway through the first half allowed the US to score the only goal of the game. The top three teams in Guate- mala will represent CONCACAF at the World Cup in Azerbaijan from Sept. 22 to Oct. 13. Sheridan, a goalkeeper, attends Grade 11 at Father Leo Austin and resides in Whitby. She post- ed three shutouts in the tourna- ment. Prince, a striker, who had a pair of goals, and Iozzi, a left fullback, are both Ajax residents who attend Grade 11 at Pickering High School. Canada walked through pool play, posting wins of 6-0 over Panama, 4-0 over Jamaica and 6-1 over the host Guatemala. In the semifinals they blanked Mex- ico 1-0 to advance to the gold medal game against the United States. In total, Canada scored 17 times in five games, conceding just two. Since 2002, Canada has quali- fied for eight of nine FIFA wom- en’s youth tournaments, a feat matched by only four other coun- tries in the world (Brazil, Germa- ny, Nigeria and USA). Along with the three CONCA- CAF teams (Canada, US, Mexi- co), the 16-team World Cup tour- nament will qualify three teams from Asia (China PR, Japan and Korea DPR), three teams from Africa (Gambia, Ghana and Nigeria), one team from Oceania (New Zealand), three teams from South America (Brazil, Colombia and Uruguay), host Azerbaijan and two more teams from Europe (to be determined in late June).

Boxing Cook efficient in the ring Ajax fighter makes short work of Zoltan Surman, stopping him in the second round BrAd Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Brandon Cook put a lot of work in to make short work of Zoltan Surman. That’s a good thing when the Ajax boxer can take care of things in the ring in short order, taking out Hungary’s Surman at 1:56 of the second round. Cook’s fight was one of seven on a card dubbed See Thee Rise, held at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga on Saturday night. The refer- ee stopped the fight after Cook dropped his opponent three times in the second round with body shots. “I trained for eight hard weeks,” said the Motor City Boxing Club member. “I prob- ably overtrained, but I felt really good, calm.” The 154-pound middleweight fight was a step up in calibre for Cook, who improved to 6-0 with three knockouts in his professional career. Surman entered the fight with a dec- orated amateur resume of more than 200 fights. The former Slovakian cham- pion had 21 professional fights on his record, compiling a 12-8 record with one draw and six knockouts prior to meeting Cook. But, Surman’s age and experience were no match for Cook’s youthful toughness. Cook opened the first round with quick combinations, using uppercuts and a straight right hand to put Surman on the defensive. A relentless body attack ended the fight, with a vicious left hook sending Surman to the canvas for the third and final time in the second round. “I just stuck to the game plan,” said Cook. “I stayed relaxed in the first round to see what he had. In the second round I came out and gave him lots of pressure. I went to the body and he didn’t like that.” Cook added that he noticed in watch- ing tape of Surman that he held his hands high, exposing the body. The ‘Bad Boy’, as Cook is nicknamed, praised the work of his entire team for getting him ready, especially trainer Mike Guyett, as well as his promoters Tyler Buxton and Hennessy Sports, and spon- sors St. Louis and Home Life. Though nothing has been signed as yet, Cook said he might be back in the ring in July in Moncton, New Brunswick. Failing that, he expects to be back at the Hershey Centre in Mississauga for a card in Sep- tember.

Cook dropped Surman three times in the second round to record the win. trAcK Durham hurdlers finish well back DOHA, QATAR -- The women’s hurdles event at the Diamond League track and field opener in Qatar Friday was domi- nated in quantity by Canadians, but not so much in quality. Despite having four of the eight com- petitors hailing from Canada, including three alone from Durham Region, only Markham’s Phylicia George delivered a medal, the bronze. Pickering’s Perdita Felicien managed a season-best time of 12.95 seconds, good for fifth place, while Whitby’s Priscilla Lopes-Schliep was listed sixth with the same time. Pickering’s Nikkita Holder stumbled and finished last in 20.81. Jamaican Brigitte Foster-Hylton won the gold medal in a time of 12.60, ahead of silver medallist Kellie Wells of the United States (12.72) and George, who also ran a season best, 12.79. It was the fourth event of the season for Lopes-Schliep, and her first in the Dia- mond League since she won the overall title in 2010. Eight months removed from giving birth to her first child, the 29-year- old Lopes-Schliep had recently won the silver medal at a meet in Jamaica in a time of 12.64, behind only Foster-Hyl- ton’s 12.51. All four of the Canadians, along with Angela Whyte of Edmonton, will be among those battling for three spots at the London Olympics when the trials are held in Calgary next month. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 1 6 , 2 0 1 2 20 AP IT’S FREE!

Hockey Dal Colle looks like a keeper for Generals Top draft prospect scores big with GM Jeff Twohey at oHL team’s orientation camp Brian Mcnair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA -- If first impressions are important, than Michael Dal Colle is batting two-for-two with Jeff Twohey. Twohey, the new general manager of the Oshawa Generals, has liked what he’s seen of Dal Colle in his first meet- ings both on and off the ice since the Generals scooped up Dal Colle with the seventh overall pick in the most recent Ontario Hockey League draft. Where it matters most for fans of the team, on the ice, Dal Colle fired home a pair of goals on the second and final day of the team’s orientation camp Sat- urday at the General Motors Centre. “I thought Michael Dal Colle was exceptional,” said Twohey. “I had a lit- tle bit of knowledge of him prior to join- ing the team, but after watching him in a couple of scrimmages and a practice, it’s pretty easy to see why (head scout) Mike Kelly and his staff chose him. He looks likes he’s going to be a really good player.” Dal Colle, who had already impressed Twohey with his maturity during a recent off-ice meeting with the family in Vaughan, will be expected to step right in and make a contribution as a rookie next season. The six-foot-two, 170-pound centre scored 44 goals and added 34 assists in 42 games as captain of the Vaughan Kings minor midget AAA team this past season. “He’s really smart, he’s great at distrib- uting the puck and his vision and abil- ity to react to offensive opportunities quickly is exceptional,” said Twohey. “His puck skills are very good, his com- pete level is very good, but I think he’s got an exceptional ability to create offence.” The weekend offered Twohey his first chance to meet many of the team’s young prospects, as well as some of the veterans during an awards banquet that was held the night before camp started. Twohey has been a busy man of late, as he also continues to keep his job as a scout with the Phoenix Coyotes, a gig that will end after the NHL draft. In Phoenix this week -- he took in the first two games of the Western Confer- ence final -- Twohey nevertheless made sure he was in Oshawa for the weekend, and was suitably impressed. “It was valuable because it gave me a couple of days of seeing some of the young kids within the organization and starting to familiarize myself with them,” he said. “Obviously come train- ing camp I’ll be much more familiar with them now. They’re not just names to me.” In addition to Dal Colle, Twohey said Cole Cassels and John Urbanic stood out during the camp, which was to be expected considering they both played for the Generals last season. Ken Appleby, the team’s second- round pick in 2011, also impressed Twohey, as he started building his case to be the backup goalie behind Daniel Altshuller for next season. “Basically what I said to Ken is it’s up to him really. He has the potential to be a very good goalie and would seem to be a logical part of our team for next year,” said Twohey. “But the key is if you get comfortable and just think that’s going to be there for you, then somebody’s going to pass you by.” Mitch Brooks, Ryan Burns and Stefano Alonzi each scored a pair of goals dur- ing the scrimmage games as well, while Joe Manchurek, Bradley Latour, Cody Underhill, Kelly Summers and Urbanic scored once apiece. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m Ne w s A d v e r t i s e r • Ma y 1 6 , 2 0 1 2 21 AP Business & Law Honours Business Administration Supply Chain & Logistics Accounting & Payroll Administration Paralegal (LSUC Accredited) Law Clerk Police Foundations Technology Mobile & Desktop Support Technician Video Game Design & Development Web Design & Development Network Engineer Network Specialist Oshawa Campus: 200 John St. W.
