It’s made me even stronger and I will continue as Terry did, hoping that one day we find a cure.” Since the annual Pickering run was inaugurated in 1986 it has raised more than $750,000 for cancer research. 905-683-6074 Full,Partial & BPS Dentures Implant Dentures Same Day Relines & Repairs Soft Liners House CallsAvailable Complimentary Consultations SaturdayAppointmentsAvailable Deegan Denture Clinic Michael Deegan DD 134 HarwoodAve.S.,Ajax (In theAjax Plaza in the corner by Home Hardware) “Denture Services –A FamilyTradition for Over 30Years!” Last chance for sweet picks!

"There is no minimum entry fee, whatever you can provide is certainly welcome.” The event is non-com- petitive and participants are free to walk, run, cycle, rollerblade or skateboard anywhere from one to 10 kilometres.

Pickering residents ready for Great Canadian Shoreline cleanup PICKERING -- Volunteers will be working together to clean up Pickering’s waterfront during the Great Canadian Shore- line Cleanup. This the 19th year for the national event, which began in Vancouver and encourages Canadians to volunteer to help clean up their local shorelines. In 2011, more than 56,000 Canadians registered for cleanups across the country, removing more than 143,737 kilograms of garbage from 1,600 sites spanning a collective dis- tance of 3,144 kilometres. This year the City of Pickering is once again teaming up with the Toronto and Region Con- servation Authority to host a local cleanup along the shores of Lake Ontar- io at Frenchman’s Bay. On Saturday, Sept. 15 from 10 a.m. to noon res- idents are invited to help clean litter from Pickering shores at Rotary French- man’s Bay West Park. The City is encouraging residents, businesses and community groups to get involved and provide supplies. Several groups are reg- istered to host cleanups along Pickering’s water- ways from Sept. 15 to 23. For more information or to register your own group cleanup for the week, visit www.shore- linecleanup.ca.

University enrolment numbers up across Ontario Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- More and more students are flock- ing to UOIT, Trent Oshawa and Durham College this fall. The University of Ontar- io Institute of Technology reports that as of Aug. 24, 2,811 first-year students have registered compared to 2,538 in the same week in 2011 -- an increase of 10.8 per cent. The Council of Ontar- io Universities reports numbers are up across the province, a 2.5-per cent increase in the num- ber of students who have enrolled in Ontario’s uni- versities this fall, repre- senting 12 years of annual increases. “Ontario universities are transforming the student experience by enhanc- ing teaching and learning, developing more innova- tive programs, providing more experiential learn- ing opportunities and uti- lizing technology in order to prepare students for our changing world,” says Bonnie M. Patterson, COU president and CEO in a press release. Although Trent didn’t share its numbers as they’re unofficial until November, president and vice-chancellor Ste- ven Franklin said Trent Oshawa should have an increase that looks similar to the Ontario trend. “It’s a good one for us because we have been trying to grow modestly,” he said. “We don’t want to have huge increases that are not sustainable. We want to grow our pro- grams while preserving the small-class experience as much as possible and give students a wide range in programs.” Durham College’s num- bers are up too. The school has seen around 9,000 full-time students at its Oshawa and Whitby campuses, and brand-new Pickering Learning Site, since class- es began on Sept. 5. This includes more than 5,200 new students -- a new stu- dent enrolment increase of 12 per cent. New interna- tional student enrolment is also up 85 per cent with 141 new students from other countries attend- ing Durham College this semester. Last year at this time, the total number of full-time students was 8,400 and the number of students new to Durham College had increased by 7.5 per cent. “September is one of the most exciting months of the year at Durham Col- lege as we welcome a new class of students as well as returning students to cam- pus,” said Judy Robinson, vice-president, Academ- ic, in a press release. “Our impressive enrolment growth is a testament to our strong academic pro- gramming, which includes launching new academ- ic programs while ensur- ing our existing programs remain current and rel- evant to today’s employ- ers along; dedicated fac- ulty; committed student services staff; state-of-the art facilities and more. Combined they reflect our unwavering commitment to student success and ensuring that the student experience always comes first.” Some of Durham Col- lege’s new 2012-2013 pro- grams include: Fire and Life Safety Systems Tech- nician; Golf Facility Oper- ations Management; Hor- ticulture Technician; Rec- reation and Leisure Ser- vices; and Trades Funda- mentals. 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 4 , 2 0 1 2 3 AP Every Thursday in September 2012, 5:00PM-10:00PM FreeRapidRewardsPlayersClub(RRPC)membershiprequired.Mustbe19yearsofageoroldertoparticipate.Validgovernment-issuedphotoidentification mayberequired.Nopurchasenecessary.WeeklyiPodDraw10:30PMeveryThursdayinSeptember2012.Selectedentrantisnotrequiredtobeinattendanceto win.GrandPrizeDraw:ThursdaySeptember27,11:00PM.Selectedentrantisnotrequiredtobeinattendancetowin.Chancesofwinningdependonthenumber of entries received.

We’re a little off the beaten path, but that still surprises me,” says Sandy Archibald, who owns and operates the Bowmanville win- ery with her husband Fred Archi- bald. The farm dates back to 1967 when it started as a wholesale apple grower. Over the years it has grown to include pick-your-own apples, a booming winery that produces 40,000 bottles a year and a mar- ket selling homemade apple pies, apple cider, apple fritters and other country goodies. “We offer people a whole experi- ence when they come here, but it’s still a challenge to convince them to go somewhere other than the gro- cery store, to try something new,” Mr. Archibald says. It’s why he’s excited to participate in the upcoming Savour the Season culinary festival. The second annual event from Sept. 12 to 23 will see more than 20 local restaurants team up with area farmers to offer special menus fea- turing local food from the fall har- vest. “People truly are interested in supporting local food and knowing where their food comes from. But many people don’t know what’s available locally,” says Kerri King, the Region of Durham’s tourism manager. “Savour the Season is a way to learn about all these great farms and great products.” The restaurants will offer fixed price menus -- running about $20 for lunch and $35 for dinner -- which all include at least one appetizer, entree and dessert with a main ingredient produced in Dur- ham. Dishes on offer this year include plenty of classic comfort food. For example, the Tin Mill Restaurant in Uxbridge lets diners start things off with a mini autumn chicken pot pie stuffed with meat from Coo- per’s Farm in Zephyr. Main courses at Harp and Wylie’s Canadian Grill House in Port Perry include a rack of lamb with honey- and-thyme roasted parsnips from Yellowlees Family Farm in Nestle- ton. Chatterpaul’s in Whitby sweetens things up with a wildberry bread pudding in white chocolate toffee sauce using fruit from the orchard at Archibald Estate Winery.

The Sept. 4 to 7 operation was the seventh annual In the Zone campaign undertaken by Durham police, who tar- geted behaviour such as speeding and cellphone use in school zones across the region. During the week cops issued 1,561 tick- ets for offences, including 32 distracted driving infractions. Distracted driving continues to be one of the leading causes of all collision, police said in announcing results of the blitz. Durham Region’s websites will see disruptions Sept. 15 DURHAM -- The Region of Durham’s municipal websites will experience ser- vice disruptions this weekend. On Saturday, Sept. 15 residents can expect intermittent disruptions through- out the day as scheduled maintenance and upgrades are performed to increase bandwidth.

All content copyright Editorial OpinionsOpinionsOpinionsOpinions email responses to newsroom@durhamregion.com Police helicopter works for all Durham residents To the editor: Re: ‘Noisy police chopper disturbs the peace’, letter to the editor, durhamregion. com, Aug. 18, 2012. Surely Gary Arsenault doesn’t really believe that our police force flies the Air 1 chopper for a bit of recreation. Every time he hears the chopper overhead, he should think about how the Durham Regional Police are looking out for our best inter- ests. They are actually working -- looking for missing persons, following a bad guy until they can corner and arrest him, keeping an eye out for suspicious activity, etc. The police chopper is always on the ground until it is needed. Sometimes, it even works with Air Two in York or is hired to do police work for Toronto. These people are not only protecting all Durham’s citizens, they are protecting him. If they are flying at night, there is a reason and they are working, maybe long after he gets up for work at 4 a.m. He should be grateful for that. J. Beverly Ewen Ajax Wildlife concern goes unaddressed after office hours To the editor: I recently observed a crow on my front lawn in distress. It may have been hit by a car or mauled by a cat, but my immediate concern was perhaps it was a case of West Nile virus. I got out the phone book and dialed ani- mal control, then the Ministry of the Envi- ronment, the Ministry of Health, all of which informed me via a recorded mes- sage that their office hours were Monday to Friday. I called police, who gave me num- bers I had already tried. Finally, I sheep- ishly dialed 911. Feeling foolish I explained the situation and my concern, only to be told I shouldn’t use this number for non- emergencies and was promptly given yet another a number I had already called. The operator suggested that I just let it die and leave it there until the Monday when someone was available. I asked about the safety issue considering that kids on the street may not recognize the danger, but got no help. I tried another number and was put in touch with a fire services exten- sion which suggested I place the bird in a bag and store it until the appropriate agen- cy could retrieve it. But it was still alive. Are you kidding me? Do they think these types of things only happen Monday to Fri- day during office hours? Am I supposed to put myself and my family at risk deal- ing with this situation until the so-called experts get around to it? Is there no protocol for an after-hours wildlife concern like this? Had it been a rabid coyote, I was told someone would address the problem, but as it was, no one could offer any assistance. The bird has since disappeared -- dragged off by a cat, hopped under a parked car, who knows? Hopefully not somewhere where it can create health hazard for the neighbour- hood kids or family pets. Glad to see my property taxes so hard at work. Mark Denby Bowmanville Praise for ‘hilarious’ columnist Neil Crone To the editor: Re: Neil Crone. It is time for someone to praise Neil Crone -- he is hilarious. Neil’s column is my favourite part of the Uxbridge Times-Journal. Quite often I catch myself belly laughing or even silently agreeing with Neil’s clever twist on every- day situations. This is the only article I will often re-read aloud to share a giggle with my husband. Applause for Neil Crone -- who saves his best lines for this column.

It doesn’t matter how young or old you are, there’s a power that’s reproduced each September as people all over Canada gather to work toward making one young man’s dream come true. Terry Fox was only 22 when his life was taken by cancer, but in his short time on this earth, he managed to touch and inspire untold numbers of Canadians. At an age when most young people are ready to begin their lives, Terry’s health had begun to fail. At 18 years old, he was diagnosed with bone cancer and his leg was amputated above the knee. For many, this would have been a dev- astating blow to their outlook on life, but for Terry, it was a motivator. He started the Marathon of Hope in April 1980 and ran close to 42 kilometres a day with one simple, pure goal: raise enough money to find a cure for cancer and save many oth- ers from the fate he faced. On Sept. 1, he had to stop his run -- the cancer had spread to his lungs. On June 28, 1981, he died. As sad as his death was, it motivated hundreds of thousands of people across the globe to take action and keep his goal relevant and within sight. Today’s fundraising runs are fueled by eternal hope as participants gather to be part of something bigger than themselves, part of the raw determination and belief of one young man. It’s an event that draws even those who have been lucky enough not to have been touched by cancer and one that keeps Terry Fox’s memory alive even in young school children, inspiring them to do the impossible, to make others believe, to pursue the dream of a cure. The annual Terry Fox Run provides a magic all Canadians can relate to in some way. There is no cure for cancer yet, but there have been numerous advancements made in cancer research and countless lives saved thanks to the money raised by Terry Fox and his dream. This year, it couldn’t be easier for resi- dent to donate: simply text terryfox to 45678 to donate $5. Communities across Durham hit the streets this Sunday. If you’re not partici- pating, offer a cheer and a wave if you see them.

A pilot program set to start this fall will give homeowners the chance to recycle single-use bat- teries twice a year, when clocks are changed for daylight savings time. Raw Materials Company will take the batteries and process them at its facility in Port Colborne. Cory Graper, a sales and account manager for RMC, told Durham Region’s works committee on Wednesday that the company has been discussing the issue with the Region for two years. “We feel we’ve put together a very concrete plan,” he said. Batteries will be placed in bags by the homeowner, which will be put out with the blue box. Works Commissioner Cliff Curtis said the Region is going to spend about $20,000 marketing the pro- gram. The hope is to have the program running when clocks change this fall, on Nov. 4, Mr. Curtis added. Mr. Graper said 86 per cent of the batteries can be recycled. The zinc-manganese is recy- cled and used in fertilizer, while the steel casing is used in cars and appliances. Only the outer wrap- ping, a mix of paper and plastic, isn’t recyclable and is shipped to a site in Buffalo for disposal. “It’s very clean from an environ- mental standpoint,” Mr. Graper added, noting there’s no burning in the separation process. “If it’s not convenient for the public and there isn’t a profit, bat- teries will end up in the trash,” Mr. Graper said. “The curbside pro- gram is the best way to collect. It’s a real step forward and a step in the right direction.” This would be the first program of its kind in Ontario and “it will open the floodgates for the rest of municipalities to follow in your footsteps,” Mr. Graper said. Durham is a good fit for the com- pany, as there’s both urban and rural recycling. “It’s encompassing everyone who makes up Ontario. “We see this as the next big step in recycling in Ontario,” Mr. Graper said. He noted about 80 per cent of batteries are of the dry cell alkaline type. With recycling, there will be a mix of different types of batteries, such as single-use types, recycla- ble batteries and even those used in cellphones. “We take any shape, any kind,” Mr. Graper said. “Batteries are the number-one hoarding material,” he noted, pointing out people put dead bat- teries in bags or jars. “They don’t throw them out until they figure out what to do with them.” Regional Chairman Roger Anderson said, “This is a big win for us. It’s been at least seven years we’ve been talking about this.” Doing the collection a week fol- lowing the change of clocks “makes sense to me. It’s a great program.” 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 4 , 2 0 1 2 9 AP Advertisement To m Batchellor of To m’s No Frills in Ajax had his head shaved this past weekend as a fund- raiser for President’s Choice Children’s Charities.To m challenged his staff to raise $3000 for the charity and he’d let them shave his head.

However, contrary to what many people think, research has shown it is not just the number of hours in bed that is important, but rather, the quality of those hours spent asleep. In order to wake up feeling energized and refreshed, getting deep, restorative sleep is crucial. Unfortunately, there are many factors in our everyday lives that can lead to a poor or inadequate night of sleep. To help minimize these adverse effects, Sally Morse, director of creative services for window fashions company Hunter Douglas, which provides many light- and noise-blocking solutions to enhance the quality of sleep, has a few easy tips: • Bedtime: Bedtime is not just for children; going to bed at a consistent time every night will help your body establish a regular sleep schedule. Your body’s sleep-wake cycle is one of the most important strategies for achieving a good nights’ sleep. Keep up this routine and you’ll find yourself waking up naturally without an alarm clock. • Noise: Noise is one of the most disruptive factors that can affect the quality of sleep you’re getting. Whether you live in the city or the suburbs, noise has a way of infiltrating our private spaces. Innovators like Hunter Douglas work hard to bring peace and quiet back into your home however. The company’s products are all tested and score high ratings for sound absorption so you can rest peacefully. • The Bed: The bed you sleep on should enhance the comfort and quality of the sleep you get. If you wake up with a sore back or aching neck, chances are you may need to invest in a new mattress or try a different pillow. It is also important to limit the activities you do on your bed to just sleeping. If you associate your bed with working on it, it may be harder to switch into sleep mode at night. • Light: If your goal is quality sleep, then the best window fashions are those that block out light so that you are not woken up and agitated by it. Products such as Hunter Douglas’ Duette Architella opaque honeycomb shades feature a design that significantly reduces heat transfer at the window and serves as an excellent light-blocking tool. The darker it is, the better you’ll sleep. • Eating and Drinking Habits: Your daytime and pre-bedtime eating habits play a significant role in how well you sleep. Big meals at night take a lot of work for your stomach to digest and may keep you up. On the other hand, if dinnertime is early, a light snack can promote sleep. Many people underestimate the effects caffeine can have on your sleeping schedule; it can cause sleep problems up to 10 hours after drinking it. Consider eliminating caffeinated drinks from your diet post-lunch time.

The third-party logistics pro- vider, which distributes mer- chandise to 1,200 Loblaws stores across Eastern Canada, cel- ebrated the opening of a new 200,000-square-foot expansion on Sept. 12, bringing the facility up to nearly one million square feet. “It increased our volume out of the facility by 50 per cent and allowed us to add 5,000 differ- ent items to our grocery list, as it were,” said Jeff Conlon, general manager of the facility. “There’s more volume still to come in the next six weeks and we also still have the capacity to take on more business. We could probably grow another 15 to 20 per cent beyond what’s already planned for 2012.” The company provides prod- ucts including health and beau- ty items, general merchandise and slow-moving grocery, which includes ethnic foods and other items that don’t see rapid sales. The expansion at the Bayly and Church streets site also created nearly 200 additional jobs, with the facility up to 550 employees from 400 before work began on the addition about 10 months ago, with plans to add up to 50 more new employees over the next year. “We still have more growth in front us,” Mr. Conlon said. Pickering Mayor Dave Ryan was on hand to celebrate the expansion. “Thank you for choosing us in the first place and continuing to grow here in Pickering,” he said. “This is a sterling example of what makes the community great; you’re taking advantage of our biggest asset, our workforce. We will continue to do what we can to help you continue to grow and flourish and we look forward to growing with you.” Aspect Retail currently employs about 2,000 people in Pickering and Ajax. SaBRina ByRnES / METRolanD PICKERING -- Mayor David Ryan congratulated Aspect Retail, a distribution centre for Loblaws, on the new expansion to its facility, which also includes the addition of approximately 200 jobs. Beth Hamilton one half of musical duo Beckon MIKE RUTA mruta@durhamregion.com AJAX -- After a year of playing music and singing together, friends of Beth Hamil- ton and Connie Rossitter told them they needed a name. Laughing at the memory, Hamilton says one suggestion was mixing Con- nie and Beth to make ‘Conneth’, which they thought sounded like a death metal band. “We mulled that over and blended Beth and Connie,” she says, and Beckon was born. “That’s really appropriate; the music’s always beckoning every day. It beckons others to listen.” Touring Ontario to support their first album, Beautiful Life, Beckon plays Ajax’s St. Francis Centre Sept. 22 at 8 p.m. And Hamilton, born and raised in Ajax, is pumped about performing in her home- town. “I’m so excited,” she says. “I just can’t believe it’s my first time playing my music in Ajax.” The two met seven years ago when they were both living in Orangeville. Hamilton was teaching Kindermusik and Rossitter came in with her son one day and they hit it off. A few years later they both moved to Owen Sound. Rossitter grew up there, but for Hamilton it was “a leap of faith”: she was looking for “a simpler, country life- style. “Almost every day we were playing together and making music for the fun of it and our friendship and our music-mak- ing blossomed,” Hamilton says. “That gave us the time to just dig into the music... playing and listening and developing that trusting relationship,” she says. The pair gelled remarkably well. Their voices seemed a match made in heaven and the women alternate singing lead and background on their original songs. They also switch playing guitar and piano and Hamilton says fan feedback indicates people “like seeing us re-arrange our- selves.” Rossitter had been writing music a few years before Hamilton says she was inspired to write as well. Once again, they complemented one another: Hamilton says she comes up with “music ideas, less lyrics” while Rossitter is better with words. “We give each other critical feedback,” she says. For six of the songs on Beautiful Life, they worked with songwriter Carrie DeMayer. Hamilton says working on songs togeth- er in a living room, without hearing a full band, she and Rossitter found the pieces all came out as folkish ballads. “We wanted more of a pop sound and more upbeat songs,” she says. “The songs are still true to us.... We didn’t know the direction of the album.” They were advised not to stick to one theme in the songs and, unintentionally, Hamilton says themes such as living in the moment and having a positive out- look emerged. Making the album and touring is fun, but a lot of hard work, and Hamilton says they’re resisting the temptation to write some new music, feeling they have an obligation to tour on the strength of the Beautiful Life songs. They hope to play 40 gigs across Ontario this fall and then play festivals, more Ontario shows and maybe venture east to Quebec and the Maritimes next year. One stop they’re making on this tour is a Dec. 1 date at Shobrook Gardens in Uxbridge, and it’s a very personal show for Hamilton: her grandfather lives there and the gig is almost a thank-you con- cert. “Grandpa’s been very supportive of us and our music,” she says. After borrowing other people’s guitars and renting instruments at times, Hamil- ton says her grandfather a couple of years ago bought each of them a guitar. Later that same day, they have a date at Debbie’s Cafe in Ajax and, as Christ- mas won’t be far off, Hamilton says they’ll likely play a few Christmas songs as well. But Beckon will be joined by Mark McIntyre on bass and Mark Mariash on drums for the St. Francis Centre concert at 78 Church St. S.

AJAX -- Bill Zolis of Ajax had a close encounter of the Urban kind recently. Zolis told us that he and his wife were in Niag- ara Falls to see country star Keith Urban in con- cert. He said the show was great and Urban asked for audience volunteers to sing with him on stage, one of whom was from Pickering. The next morning, Zolis was in the hotel gym for a workout, jogging on the treadmill listening to music, when he noticed “an arm with a tattoo.” You guessed it, it was Urban, also working out. “I talked to him and told him his show was awesome,” Zolis said. “He said he was performing in smaller venues getting ready for a big tour. I qui- etly asked him if he would give me an autograph for me and another one for my daughter, who was not with us. He said sure. I ran upstairs sweating from the workout to get some paper, where my wife was still sleeping, and screamed at her say- ing she would not believe who was at the gym with me.” Urban signed the autographs but “kindly refused a picture” as he was in workout gear and it was early in the day. They parted with Urban saying ‘great to have met you, Bill’ and Zolis with a story to tell. DURHAM -- The 2012 Oshawa Mayor’s Gala in Support of the Ontario Philharmonic is Sept. 21.

But commercial washes don’t always do a great job and their brushes can hold onto to dirt and actually scratch your vehicle. The next time you want a clean car, bring it to Shammy’s Auto Detailing. They offer an express car wash, starting as low as $10 for an exterior wash, all done by hand. You can also opt to have the interior vacuumed, the windows cleaned, the rims washed and polished and the tires dressed - all while you wait! In less than half an hour, your vehicle will be hand washed, chamois dried and the interior will look like new.

Keep Your Vehicle Looking Like New at Shammy’s Auto Detailing There were several singing Regents in the U.S. during the 50s and 60s. Better known are the doo-wop Regents, who hit it big with Barbra Ann and then fol- lowed with Runaround, both in 1961. Cana- da had its own, sole significant Regents, who are held more or less within the same brack- et of success as their U.S. counterparts. The unique, three-way-split history of The Regents (Canadian) began in 1959. Peter Groschel was the main mover of the group during the first phase. In an interview, he provided this background information: “I started playing drums -- basement stuff -- in 1957 and joined a band called Jay And The Imperials. I was working in the stock broker- age business. Any international buy-and- sell orders had to be called in to a company named Bache and Co. The other end of the phone was usually answered by Steve Ken- nedy. After talking to Steve so often, con- versation soon turned to other subjects and discovered he played the saxophone. We decided to form a band, adding a bass play- er named Brian Massey who knew Tommy Goodings (Tommy Graham of The Big Town Boys) on guitar. Later, Kay Taylor was added as our front vocalist.” “Impresario Al Steiner invited us to be his house band at the historical Club Blue Note, which he was just opening at 372 1⁄2 Yonge St. in Toronto. A lot of U.S. stars ended up at the club. We were featuring a floor show and many entertainers participated. Our house band was so good, we could back up just about anybody and had the pleasure playing with the Righteous Brothers, Jackie Wilson, Johnny Nash, Jimmy Reed, Conway Twitty, Stevie Wonder, etc.” Groschel developed some health prob- lems that lasted about six months, which resulted in his being replaced by drummer Bob Andrews. Around 1963, The Regents broke up, but not for long. Reinvented as a recording band brought them wider fame and fortune. The lineup then was made up of Bob Andrews (trumpet), Russ Strathdee (sax), Judi Jantzen (vocal), Duncan White (vocal), Brian White (organ), Jack Arseneault (guitar), Wayne Harmon (drums) and Bruce Staubitz (bass). Bruce Staubitz: “The Regents recordings of four 45 r.p.m. singles (including two fine instrumentals, Night Train From Tunisia and Space Walk) and one album were done in 1964-65. They were all recorded at Hall- mark Studios in Toronto.” One lukewarm hit emerged out of this recording phase, Me And You, issued by Quality Records in Canada and Blue Cat in the U.S. The Blue Cat release (label was a branch of Leiber-Stoller-Goldner owned Red Bird Records) was slightly messed up with by the implementation of added over- dubs, although not glaringly evident. Bruce Staubitz: “By 1966, The Regents became a road band, as Dunc And Judi And The Regents, with some further personnel changes.” Thus the third and final phase of The Regents played out; another important Canadian band from the musically enriched 1960s. Footnote: The Yonge Street landmark, Sam The Record Man, is now but a memory. But, back in the day when Sam’s was the record centre of the universe, the third floor was opened to the public. It was a vinyl hound’s paradise. There were lots of rare titles, but in those days, money was tight, even for bargain base- ment LP prices. Many of us teenagers could only afford 45s at 79 cents a pop. I remem- ber looking over albums such as Meet The Majors (The Majors, 1963); It’s About Time (The Kit Kats, 1967); Sandy (Ronny and The Daytonas, 1966) and Going Places With The Regents (1965). Did I buy these? Big mistake; only Sandy, which is still in the collection today. I should have grabbed them all.

ANDY MEREY / LOOKING BACK 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 4 , 2 0 1 2 15 AP MIKE RUTA mruta@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Audrey MacLean attended last year’s Oshawa Art Association fall show with her granddaughter, also an artist, and liked what she saw and the vibe at the event. What struck her was “the fellow- ship. “I haven’t seen a lot of these peo- ple for a long time; they’re having fun and supporting each other. “Last year we noticed there were a number of new, young artists involved and their work is just spectacular,” MacLean says. “That livens things up a bit and I think it promotes people’s interest in painting.” It inspired her and made her think ‘what can I do’. MacLean, a founding member of the OAA, is back in the show for the first time in more than a decade. And that’s great news for Durham art lovers as she’s one of the region’s most celebrated art- ists. MacLean, perhaps best known for her multi-media, collage tech- nique, is showing all new works. But for the most part they are all oils, a media she started in and has returned to. “Things go around in circles,” she says. “And I had a huge inventory of canvasses and large tubes of paints and I thought, ‘paint something’.” The subject matter sees MacLean working with her favourite kind of piece, portraiture. One large work is an image from real life that was in her mind for a long time before she put it on canvas. MacLean relates that when her three grand- children were young, she once saw them running up a hill collecting dandelions and thought, ‘what a great image that would make’. “That’s very satisfying because I had that image in my mind for year and never did anything about it,” she says. MacLean notes she’s also show- ing “a small fabric collage with three figures.” The show runs Sept. 14 to 16 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. each day. It’s at Camp Samac, at Con- lin and Ritson roads (entrance is off Conlin just west of Ritson), Oshawa.

Pereira part of Canadian junior field hockey team MEXICO -- For the next two weeks, Kevin Pereira of Ajax will be competing in Guadalajara, Mexico at the 2012 Pan American Junior Field Hockey Championships. The men’s and women’s Junior National Teams are pursuing the same goal: qualification for the 2013 Junior World Cup. Pereira, a goaltender, and his teammates, are competing for one of two tickets to the 2013 Junior World Cup. They took their first step toward that goal with a huge 12–0 win over Puerto Rico. SABRINA BYRNES / METROLAND AJAX -- Pickering High School and Team Impact wrestlers Juwan Burgess, Dillon Williams, Braxton Stone-Papadopoulos and Ingatius Pitt competed at international wrestling competitions. Wrestlers compete on international stage Four Pickering High School students represent Canada abroad BRAD KELLY bkelly@durhamregion.com AJAX -- Four wrestlers from Team Impact had varying degrees of success at recent international competitions. The four, Braxton Stone-Papadopoulos, Dillon Williams, Ignatius Pitt and Juwan Burgess, all students at Pickering High School, travelled the world to test them- selves against the best on the mat. Three of the elite group, Papadopoulos, Williams and Pitt, were in Azerbaijan as members of the Canadian team compet- ing in the U18 Cadet World Champion- ships. Stone-Papadopoulos had the most suc- cess, returning home with the bronze medal in the 60kg weight class. Last year, she finished 10th. “If you want to look at it from that aspect, it’s a huge improvement from last year,” said Kerry Ashley, a teacher at Pickering High School and coach with Team Impact, who was named as a coach of the Canadi- an team at the world championships. She lost her quarter-final match to the eventual champion from Japan, but rebounded to defeat a wrestler from Tur- key to earn a medal. “She had the toughest draw,” conceded Ashley, pointing out her first match of the tournament was against last year’s bronze medal winner from Mongolia. “The draw she had was really tough. Every match was tough.” Stone-Papadopoulos then competed a level up and in a higher weight class at the World Junior Championships in Thai- land. She lost to a Russian in the semis and a wrestler from Kazakhstan to place fifth overall in the 63kg weight class. She will potentially have three more shots at becoming a world junior champi- on because of her young age. Her success stems from a combination of things, said Ashley. “It’s a combination of coaches from our club, her determination and her practice time, the amount of time she puts in on the mat. She’s very dedicated to going to practice.” Williams, wrestling in the 54kg class, fin- ished fifth overall, losing to the eventual silver medallist. “That was a pretty good surprise because that was his first international tourna- ment,” praised Ashley. “What was great about it was that he beat a guy from Iran, and wrestling there is their national sport. He’s right in the mix, but because of his lack of international experience, that’s why he wasn’t able to get over the hump.” In the 76kg weight class, Pitt lost his first match to a wrestler from Georgia, who progressed through the draw to win bronze. For him, the competition served as a learning process. “It showed him how hard you have to work to get to that level,” said Ashley. Burgess returned with a bronze medal from the U18 Pan-American champion- ships held in Venezuela. While Ashley wasn’t a member of the staff, he is very familiar with the 69kg wrestler through Team Impact and Pickering High School. “That was excellent for him. It was his first international competition and he lost in the semifinals to a guy from the United States who won gold.” > 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 4 , 2 0 1 2 17 AP 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 • Se p t e m b e r 1 4 , 2 0 1 2 18 AP VOTINGSTARTSTODAY! C a s t y o u r v o t e s at durhamregion.com 2012 Bantams come up short in loss to Oshawa DURHAM -- The Ajax-Pickering Dolphins won two of three games against the Oshawa Hawkeyes, as the atoms and peewees came out on the winning side, while the bantams were edged. The bantam COMFL team suffered a tough loss after a well-fought game against the Hawkeyes. The loss dropped the Dolphins to 2-2-0 on the season. The first few plays favoured the Dolphins when the Hawkeyes fumbled the ball twice, managing to recover it both times. They were clearly still getting into the flow of the game when the Hawkeyes eventually managed to push their way through a hard-fighting Pickering defence and scored six points. With the end of the first half drawing near, the Pickering offence fought hard with a strong running game and got the foot- ball into the end zone along with a conversion, putting them ahead by two points at 8-6. Once the second half was well under way, it was easy to see that the Oshawa coaches had made adjustments within their team, giving them another touchdown. The Dol- phins fought as hard as they could towards the end of the game but came up just short of the touch- down that could have won it for them. The Dolphins played an exceptional game with key runs on offence by Daniel Davy and key defensive plays by Aiden Kru- ger, Jaiden Cruz and King Josiah Ambers. The Dolphins atom and peewee teams played earlier that day and both were able to claim victories against Oshawa with a score of 28-14 in the atom game and an astounding 54-0 in the peewee game. All three of these teams are now working towards their week five games against Burlington, who have proven a tough opponent and huge rival in the past. At half time the Dolphins rec- ognized coaches and players who were nominated for awards and various achievements in the sum- mer/spring league. Tony MacIn- tosh and his coaching staff were recognized for a winning season at the junior level. Player of the week nominees -- for each age group -- throughout the season were: Sharlon Smith, Raishaun Provo, Jordan Grimes and Josh Small. Finally they announced the players chosen for the junior and senior all-star teams of which the Dolphins had Raishaun Provo, Cameron Fryer, Jhosh Henry, Matthew Prusin, Trevaughan James, Trey White, Matthew Wil- liams and Elijah Williams select- ed for the junior team and Josh- ua Small, Kordal Darling, Josh- ua Brown and Anthony Thomas selected for the senior team. The next home games will be on Sept. 23, first kickoff at 9:30 a.m. till last kickoff at 1:30 p.m. Dolphins atoms, peewees win Submitted photo DURHAM -- Ajax-Pickering Dolphins running back Bailey Grimes raced towards the end zone with a pair of Oshawa Hawkeyes in hot pursuit. Paul’s Dirty Enduro climbs to 17th annual KENDAL -- For 16 years, friends and family have gathered to remember a life cut far too short. On Saturday, that number will climb to 17 years, as Paul’s Dirty Enduro will once again wind its way through the Ganaraska For- est to raise funds and awareness for the Canadian Mental Health Association, and honour the memory of Oshawa’s Paul Rush, who committed suicide in 1996. The mountain bike event offers a variety of races for riders of all ages and experience levels, begin- ning with the gruelling 100K enduro for the elite riders at 8 a.m. There are also races at 15-, 30- and 60-km distances, as well as a kids event at noon. The event wraps up with a Bike Olympics beginning around 6 p.m., shortly after the awards ceremony. Friends and members of Rush’s family, including his mother Mary, have spearheaded this ini- tiative in hopes of creating aware- ness regarding the issues involved with suicide and depression.

ALLISTON -- The Pickering Power U14 boys’ all-star team won the 2012 Summer Classic Summer All Star Tournament hosted by the Clearview Soccer Club in Alliston. There were two divisions with four teams in each, with the No. 1 team from each divi- sion playing each other in the finals. Each team played three games to determine who advanced to the final. Pickering Power and King City United both won every game, placing them first in their respective divisions and booking a spot in the final. It was an exciting final with the game fin- ishing 0-0 after regular time. A golden goal overtime failed to produce a winner. Into penalty shots, it was still tied after nine penalty shots, with Pickering holding the tenth and final shot before going to an extra round. Jordan Vanriel was the last penal- ty shooter and had the tournament in his hands -- or foot. He took the shot and put it in the top right corner to win the tourna- ment for Pickering. The coaches of the team are Sean Sands (head coach) and Newton Vanriel (assis- tant coach). Players include Justin Sands, Jordan Vanriel, Ben Sears, T.J. Hunter, Ste- phon Hewitt, Evan Whitestone, Anthony Moncada, Riley Cullen, Jason Uruthiran, John Boules, Taaygan Phillips, Josh Landri- gan, Stephan Houlahan, Dawson Stanley, Matthew Smith, Alex Lazzaro and William McLaughlin.
