Residents of Dreyer Drive, a quiet residen- tial area east of Harwood Avenue, are reel- ing after the incident, which took place at the home of an elderly couple who have resided in the area for years. “I’ve never seen or heard of anything like this,” said 30-year-old Arlene Doran, who added she’s lived in the area all her life. “I’m rethinking living here -- absolutely,” she said. Ms. Doran was among a number of resi- dents who stood on the sidewalk Tuesday morning near 54 Dreyer, the scene of the shooting. Durham police said a man and a relative were on the front porch of the resi- dence when they were approached by armed suspects at about 11:45 p.m. An exchange took place and the man was shot, police said (early reports indicated he was shot in the back). Several suspects fled the scene. Police said later five people had been arrested and a handgun was recovered. The shooting was not a random act, police said. The victim is expected to survive. Ms. Doran was still shaken after the incident. She said she’d been outside her home having a smoke with her boyfriend when the sound of gunfire erupted across the street. “My boy- friend said, ‘that sounds like a gun’,” she said, adding they quickly retreated indoors. Other neighbours said they’d heard little until the street was suddenly swarming with police cars. Next-door neighbour Heather Nielsen said the street was blocked off from the time of the shooting until shortly after 7 a.m. Tuesday. “I haven’t heard of anything like this going on,” she said. “It’s shocking.” Dave Brazier, who grew up in the neigh- bourhood and was driving along Dreyer on his way to work Tuesday morning, was stunned when he heard there had been a shooting. He doubled over at the waist and inhaled deeply, asking if anyone at the home had been injured. Other residents expressed alarm at the inci- dent. Telephone listings indicate the house is home to the Quantz family, which was confirmed by neighbours. A woman who answered the phone at the home Tuesday declined comment. Police have not released the names of sus- pects or the charges they face.

Oshawa Generals Host Draw for Local Businesses toWin Sponsorship Package No apology expected from ombudsman over twitter attack JEFF MITCHELL jmitchell@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Durham’s top cop has criticized the provincial ombudsman over a flap involv- ing insulting online messages. But an apology won’t be coming any time soon, judging by a statement released Mon- day by Andre Marin. The ombudsman acknowledged confusion over the source of a series of offensive Twitter messages originally attributed -- by Mr. Marin -- to a Durham fraud detective. It appears now the officer whose name was publicized earlier this month didn’t write the messages, but they were posted by another cop. Despite that revelation, Mr. Marin did not relent in his condemnation of the act. “Regrettably, it appears that a Durham police officer not only personally attacked public officials on Twitter, but impersonated a colleague in doing so,” Mr. Marin stated. Mr. Marin said both he and the impugned officer, Detective Constable Scott Dennis, were “duped by this disgraceful, malicious act.” The confusing saga began Aug. 8 when a series of statements appeared on Twitter, criticizing Mr. Marin over comments he’d made about police use of force strategies. Mr. Marin highlighted several tweets from the same account, calling him “a carded member of Al Qaida” and saying “YOU SIR ARE A COMPLETE DOUCHE BAG! Why don’t you stick your big french nose up your ass instead of business it doesnt belong. (sic)” Mr. Marin publicly identified the account as belonging to Det. Const. Scott Dennis. The account was quickly shut down. Durham police, meanwhile, launched an investiga- tion into the affair. Monday police said a probe by the profes- sional standards branch had revealed anoth- er officer was responsible for sending the tweets, and had set up the account in Det. Const. Dennis’s name without his knowl- edge. Det. Const. Dennis was on vacation at the time someone using the Twitter handle Joe Mayo made the vitriolic statements, and had no knowledge of them or the Twitter account, police said. Gary Hopkinson, the lawyer representing Det. Const. Dennis, said the officer was sub- jected to “contempt and attacks” in the wake of the allegations against him. The result of the professional standards probe has come as a relief, he said. “He’s obviously very pleased to have been completely exonerated,” Mr. Hopkinson said. “He certainly feels it’s unfor- tunate his name was publicly disclosed in the way it was by the ombudsman. The last few weeks have been very difficult for him.” It’s too early to tell if Det. Const. Dennis will seek redress through civil action, the lawyer said. Durham police have not named the officer believed to have written the offensive mes- sages, but said Monday charges will be laid under the Police Services Act. The officer will be identified when the public hearing is held, police said. In a statement Monday Durham police Chief Mike Ewles slammed Mr. Marin for his hasty -- and inaccurate -- identification of the officer. “I think the notion that someone in Mr. Marin’s position, who is responsible for objective and independent investigations, would rush to judgment the way he did is troubling,” Chief Ewles said. The insult to Det. Const. Dennis was com- pounded by Mr. Marin’s revealing the cop’s salary, Chief Ewles said. For his part, Mr. Marin said he had planned to meet later this week with Durham police as part of the investigation into the incident. “I was surprised to learn this afternoon that the investigation had already concluded,” the ombudsman’s statement said. “I commend Durham police for taking this matter so seriously, and I will follow further developments in the case with interest.” - With files by Moya Dillon 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 • Au g u s t 2 8 , 2 0 1 3 5 AP 500 BAYLY ST.W., AJAX (Between Church &We stney) Mon.- Thurs.....9-9 Fri.&Sat. ........9-6 SHOP 24/7 @ www.AjaxNissan.com1800 565 6365 The Bond Between Motion and Yo u.The Bond Between Motion and Yo u.

The letter writer complains that Ajax suf- fers from “the worst rate of house price appreciation in the GTA,” yet applauds the recent Pickering airport announcement. Does she think that being on the flight path of a jumbo jet will enhance the value of her house? She praises Mississauga’s low property taxes. But Mississauga’s taxes are rising rap- idly, now that the city has run out of land to develop. Durham’s taxes are certainly high, but an airport here can only increase them and decrease house values. Fortunately, there’s no economic justification for this air- port. Farmland feeds us. We must preserve all we can. Durham Region -- still predomi- nantly rural -- has a golden opportunity here and, to its credit, recently made agri- culture its top priority under the slogan ‘Good things keep growing!’ This wise deci- sion could herald many new and depend- able jobs in our fertile fields and in food pro- cessing and preparation, to benefit us and our export markets. The future lies in food, not in planes and air pollution. Peter C. Greenhill Claremont Shameful conduct by DRPS employee ‘Real’ news closer than you think Local news has long been consigned by literate people as trivial, nothing more than gossip for the locals. ‘Real’ news comes from the national media, wherever it is to be found -- the New York Times. Le Monde. The Tele- graph. And so on. In Egypt, about 500 people were slaugh- tered recently by the military imposing a crackdown on supporters of President Mohammed Morsi. Today, more. Tomorrow, who knows? On the other side of the world, North Korea has gone silent with its threats to send missiles over the U.S. The constant barrage of disquieting events reported in the media tends to keep peace of mind just a lit- tle beyond reach. So where is it to be found? Going through Whitby This Week, several stories of interest appeared in a recent edi- tion. After a 25-year struggle with the federal government, Doris Madder succeeded in obtaining benefits owed from her deceased husband’s military pension. She was also given his military service medals. Similarly, Jackie Scott maintains her struggle to have her Canadian citizenship recognized by gov- ernment. Her status fell between the cracks. Jessica Cox, meanwhile, spoke out about the stigma of suicide in the wake of her step- father’s death last year. The lead story was about Brent Herrington, a butcher. Mr. Har- rington started in high school as a cleaner, then worked his way up over the years, learn- ing the trade while on the job. In Cairo, television scenes featured dem- onstrators soaked in blood. So where is peace of mind to be found? It may start with stories of people like Doris Madder, Jackie Scott, and Jessica Scott. Because even for people inured to blood flowing on TV screens, there are still people like Brent Harrington wearing blood- soaked aprons as they make their work pre- sentable to fussy shoppers. “People buy with their eyes. We try to maker things look pretty. It takes a lot of work to get products to the display counter,” said Mr. Harrington. -- Peter Beeching is a Whitby resident. Peter Beeching Guest Column Local News Ontario Ombudsman Andre Marin did his organization no favours when he outed the person he thought responsible for offensive tweets earlier this month in relation to the fatal police shooting of a Toronto teen. He wasn’t quite accurate in rush to judg- ment over the offensive tweets, and pub- licly named a Durham Regional Police Service employee as the culprit, although it has since been proven that the man he named was on vacation at the time and had no knowledge of the Twitter account a col- league allegedly created in his name. So, while Mr. Marin was correct in nam- ing an employee of the DRPS, he was dead wrong in identifying Det. Constable Scott Dennis. For that, he must apologize. An internal DRPS investigation concluded that another officer was responsible for cre- ating a Twitter account under Det. Const. Dennis’s name without his knowledge and sent the tweets to Mr. Marin’s attention over the police shooting. One tweet referred to Mr. Marin as “a carded member of Al Qaida”, while another said, “YOU SIR ARE A COM- PLETE DOUCHE BAG! Why don’t you stick your big french nose up your ass instead of business it doesn’t belong.” It takes some measure of arrogance -- not to mention cowardice -- to make such offen- sive statements when, presumably, the offi- cer responsible had no more knowledge of the Sammy Yatim shooting on Aug. 8 than Mr. Marin. And the deception behind the ruse reflects dishonorably not only on the officer behind the tweets but on the entire force. The tweets also seem to reinforce the widely held notion among civilians that police reflexively cover for their own, no matter the circumstance, absent any excul- patory evidence, or regardless of ongoing professional investigations. Credit is due to Durham Regional Police Services Chief Mike Ewles for vowing to hold the offending officer to account. Police officers are expected to conduct themselves at all times with honour. The actions of this Durham police employee fell shamefully short of that standard. He deceived his superiors and the public by assuming the identity of a colleague. He said offensive things, rushed to his own judgment on the Yatim shooting, and man- aged to work an insulting cultural reference into the rest of the offensive mix. Mr. Marin’s outing was unfortunate and unnecessary. But who could blame him in the circumstance? The real villain in this piece is the offending tweeter. My mom is 10 storeys tall, and then some My little Mom is my hero. She checks in at about 90 pounds soaking wet and her head barely reaches my shoulders, but she has the heart and strength of 10 Grinches, plus two. Mom and I have a routine that we go through each time I visit her and Dad at their condo. When I leave and head out to my car in the parking lot, I always turn and look up the 10 storeys to their floor-to-ceiling bedroom window. And always, my mom is standing there, waving goodbye to me. I wave back and blow her a kiss. She sends one back to me. Always. She stays there, waving, until I have driven out of sight. We do this every time we say goodbye. This past week we had a shiver run through our family when my mom under- went surgery to remove several feet of ascending colon and a nasty little tumour that was making life difficult for her. Her surgery, in fact, was very similar to what I had gone through a little over nine years ago. We both had a chunk of our pipes removed along with an unwanted visitor. That, however, is where the similarities end. For starters I was 44 with the heart of an athlete. My Mom is 86 and has angina. Even so, she kicked my recuperative ass. She was back on her feet and on her way to normal days before I was even thinking of getting out of bed. She was already ignoring her pain meds at a stage when I would’ve sold my first born to get something stronger into my veins. I don’t know how she does it. Maybe giv- ing birth six times to children with heads slightly smaller than baby buffalo has given her a different perspective on pain thresh- olds. Maybe it comes from growing up in the shadow of the Great Depression and two world wars, a time when kids weren’t coddled and everyone was expected to pull their weight. I suspect it has less to do with those things however and more to do with the size of her beautiful heart ... a mother’s heart. I know fathers pretty well. I am one. Fathers have their roles and they are unquestionably important within the fabric of a family. But a mother literally is the fab- ric of a family. And even as she was coming out of the anesthetic, as me and my dad and my sister sat by her side in the hospital, I could see the mother wheels in her head slowly begin spinning. I could almost hear her sizing up the situ- ation and assessing what she would need to do to get back to normal, to get home again and to resume her work of taking care of us all from whatever distance. I could feel it in her eyes as she looked at me from her hospital bed, and appraised me as she has done a thousand times, scan- ning my own face for signs of happiness or trouble. That’s what mothers do. To put things in perspective, after my sur- gery, the noblest thought I could muster was, ‘Is it sponge bath time yet?’ I visited my mom on her second day home from the hospital. She was still obvi- ously tired and sore from her ordeal and yet, as always, she wanted to know how I and the rest of the family ... her family ... were doing. And sure enough, when I left that day and made my way to my car, I turned around and amazingly, but not at all sur- prisingly, there she was. Waving from her familiar spot at the window.

A Tim Hortons gift card if you are the Featured Letter author Be fashionably aware To the editor: Ladies, beware. There’s a fashion trend that is not in our favour. It’s called the flow- ing blouse, pullover, popover or open car- digan to name a few, not to mention the already popular stretch jeans or pants. Many of the blouses have elastic bands at the bottom or waist with a shapeless mid- dle. Your initial thought might be, “This is great; finally a top that looks great, fits great and hides my unsightly muffin top or protruding love handles.” But look closely: do you realize you could gain 10 or more pounds and this same piece of clothing would still fit you? Not good. Look, no one likes to know that some- thing no longer fits because they’ve gained weight. But the alternative is worse. I can’t tell when the last time was that something in my closet no longer fit me and I know over the years there have been times when I’ve definitely gained weight. “They” may tell you that you need to be healthy and fit, but secretly there are those who are undermin- ing your ability to know when you’re not. I say this not to direct blame, but as a wake-up call to us. Some of us are asleep to both the latest fashion trends and the cur- rent state of our bodies and if this remains true, we are most certainly reducing the days that we can wake up at all. Renae Jarrett Ajax Brad Miller: My biggest issue these days is with our local ambulance drivers who seem to be reluctant in using their sirens when their lights are flashing. It happens all too often and all it takes is one driver not paying attention to the flashing lights for an accident to hap- pen. People need to hear these emergency vehicle coming ahead of time so they can pull to the side of the road and make sure they aren’t in their way. Laura Samakese Pan- huyzen: The horrible smell coming off the lake. It’s gor- geous out with a nice breeze but I have to keep my win- dows closed. We have the second largest sewer plant in Ontario dumping 340 million liters of treated sewage into Lake Ontario just 1km from our shoreline! Gross. And most of it comes from York Region. Sylvia Dressel Maclaren Lingard: My rant is about certain roads that require attention and get none, other than haphazard patching. The main one is Bloor (between Harmony and Park) and the other one is Olive past Wilson. I’ve lived in Oshawa for 15 years and all they’ve ever done is patch them. Ashley Kilpatrick: My rant is summer in general! I wish it went Fall, Winter, Spring, & Fall again. None of this hot weather and bugs! Wasps and hornets are such a nuisance, what pur- pose do they even serve other than mak- ing a home and eating? And stinging, and bugging people like me who are so afraid of them I almost run into traffic to avoid them. Deborah Linton: People who judge other people -- when you are perfect do it! Otherwise be quiet -- nobody is interested in listening. Mária Kovács: The prop- erty tax in Pickering is crazy high!!! Mine just went up again in June!!!

Sport scholarships are granted by the university or athletics association in which a university participates, and ath- letic directors or coaches play a central role in the decision-making process. 2 Scholarships are provided on a yearly basis and are generally renewable over each of the four years required to complete an undergrad- uate degree. If you enter university with trans- fer credits or advanced standing, you will still be considered a first-year student for sports scholarship purposes. It is important to real- ize that while sport scholarships aid in cover- ing the cost of undergraduate study while play- ing a sport, you are ultimately working towards completing your undergraduate degree -- and maintaining academic standards is often a con- dition of retaining an athletic scholarship. Your degree can be in any field of interest to you, and can complement your ability in sport such as through the study of physical therapy, sports psychology, management or education. 3 Award amounts vary from a few thousand dollars to up to $30,000. Universities howev- er are strictly regulated in terms of the amount of scholarship funding they can allocate each year. Subsequently sport scholarships are often offered on a percentage basis, allo- cated to cover a pre-determined percentage of university costs to you. Larger scholarships held by university or athletic associations are often sub- divided as to be allocated to a greater number of student athletes, and there- fore offers of partial funding are the norm for athletic scholarships. 4 Sports programs in American universities and colleges are offered at the varsity (com- petitive, organized between universities) and intramural or club (participation-oriented, less competitive) levels. Some universities offer sport scholarships at the varsity level to stu- dents who are academically qualified and gift- ed in a particular sport. No scholarships are offered for participation in sports at the intramu- ral or club levels. Athletic scholarships are only available for undergraduate study. 5 Scholarships can be awarded for the fol- lowing sports: baseball, basketball, rowing, cross-country, fencing, football, golf, gymnas- tics, ice hockey, indoor track, lacrosse, skiing, soccer, softball, swimming and div- ing, tennis, track and field, volley- ball, water polo, women’s field hockey and wrestling. Archery, badminton, bowling, equestrian sports and squash have been designated as ‘emerging sports’ and scholarships in these sports are often available to women only in an effort to achieve equality between men’s and women’s scholarships. Durham students eyeing athletic scholarships urged to start planning in Grade 9 Brian Mcnair bmcnair@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Durham Region has proven to be quite an athletic breeding ground for col- leges and universities in the United States. There are several examples each year of students from these parts heading south to chase their athletic dreams on scholar- ship, from high-profile cases such as for- mer Texas Longhorn and current NBA play- er Cory Joseph of Pickering, to the more obscure, like Ajax’s Jordan Akow, who went to Ohio State University for pistol-shooting. With another school year fast upon us, students who are thinking of taking the same route need to start their planning now, according to two prominent Durham guidance counsellors, Heather LaFontaine of Father Leo J. Austin Catholic Secondary School and Barb Boyes of Donald A. Wilson Secondary School. The best advice, it would seem, is to focus immediately on academics, and let the ath- letic part take care of itself. “The most important thing for any kid interested in playing sports at the next level is to realize the importance of having the academic piece to go with it,” explains Ms. LaFontaine. “It’s really important for the kids to realize how critical that piece is.” The planning can, and should, start as early as Grade 9, even if the scholarship route is planted deep in the back of the mind. It’s imperative that students thinking that way take courses at the higher academic level, as opposed to applied, and that they focus on the 16 core courses Division 1 schools are looking for: four years of Eng- lish; three years of math; two years of nat- ural or physical science; one extra year of English, math or science; two years of social science; and four extra courses from any of those categories or foreign language, reli- gion or philosophy. Ms. Boyes has helped many students over the years head down the scholarship road, both in her capacity as a guidance coun- cillor and as the executive director of the Oshawa Lady Blue Knights field lacrosse program. She’s also started her own busi- ness, Student-Athletes’ Game Plan, and offers seminars to other high schools and rep sports programs. Now 55, Ms. Boyes was an excellent hock- ey and lacrosse player in her day, but didn’t know the options available to her coming out of high school and opted to stay in Can- ada, ultimately playing hockey at York Uni- versity while earning her education degree. “That’s one of the reasons why I’m so active in the whole scholarship concept because they have to start in Grade 9, not only from knowing what courses to be taking at school but from a marketing process, getting their name out and that sort of thing,” Ms. Boyes explains. Ms. Boyes stress- es there are plenty of options available to students who are looking to prolong their athletic careers while at school, and that the best way to keep them all open is by doing well aca- demically. There are many aspects to consider before heading south, including how much money might be available, what level of play is desired, and the relevance of the degree for those returning to Canada once done. Although a full-ride Division 1 scholarship is the ultimate goal, there are close to 2,000 colleges and universities in three different U.S. athletic associations that offer athlet- ic programs and various forms of financial assistance. “I keep preaching to the kids and the families that it’s the right fit that’s the most important thing, and the U.S. option is not the right fit for everybody,” Ms. Boyes says. “I think sometimes kids get caught up in the novelty of it and what their peers are doing, when maybe right here at home is the best fit for them. I always tell them that they’ve got to keep the doors and options open.” Ms. LaFontaine, who will coach the women’s basketball team at Durham Col- lege beginning this year, has four athleti- cally gifted children of her own, but none of them took the scholarship route. Of them, 23-year-old John had the best opportunity, in lacrosse, but decided to stay in Canada to play basketball at York. “For him, it worked out really well, but each kid is a little different,” she says of her eldest son, who now plays lacrosse for the Brooklin Redmen and NLL’s Edmonton Rush. “Sometimes these kids are getting scholarships, but they’re ending up pay- ing more money than they would have if they ended up staying home and playing here.” Taking the right path WHITBY -- Heather LaFontaine, Father Leo J. Austin Catholic Secondary School teach- er and basketball coach at Durham College, has helped many student-athletes determine their best options following high school.

The only reasons he gave for leaving were “personal and professional reasons," said board chairwoman and Ajax Trustee Karen Valentine. He was elected in 2010. “He really does care about our kids...He has a real special place in his heart for those com- ing from those disengaged and disenfranchised fam- ilies," said Trustee Val- entine. "His heart’s in the right place and I’m really sad that he’s leaving.” The board has chosen to appoint a new trustee, rather than hosting a bye- lection. Media spokes- woman Jennifer Basta- rache said an appoint- ment is the more cost-effective approach, and added elections will occur in late 2014 so there is just a little over a year left in the term. Applicants have until Monday, Sept. 16 to submit their resume and cover letter to the board in order to apply for the vacant seat. To qualify, a candidate must show proof that he or she is: a Canadian citizen at least 18 years of age, and a resident of Durham Region; a baptized Roman Catholic, who is shown as an English-language Roman Cath- olic school board supporter on the municipal assessment list; and not an employee of the Durham Catholic board or any other district school board or school authority in Ontario. Candidates who are being considered for the position will be contacted for an inter- view. The successful candidate will be sworn in at the Sept. 30 board meeting. Interested candidates should submit a cover letter and resume to the director’s office at: Durham Catholic District School Board, 650 Rossland Rd. W., Oshawa, Ontario, L1J 7C4. They can also e-mail them to trusteeap- plications@dcdsb.ca or fax them to 905-721- 8239.

The man made arrangements to meet up with the “girl” at a residence for the pur- pose of having sex with and taking nude photos of her, police said. The girl was actually a police investigator posing as a 16 year old. Officers were waiting for the man at the pre-arranged location on Aug. 21, where he was arrested without incident and taken into custody. The arrest is the result of a year-long joint investigation by Durham Regional Police Service’s Internet Child Exploitation Unit, the OPP Internet Child Exploitation Sec- tion, OPP Aurora and the OPP E-crimes Unit. Police believe the suspect has been very active on social media under the profile names of FishFish and ghoti69198, and that there may be other victims. Anyone who has had inappropriate contact with the listed profile names is asked to call police. Parents are reminded to monitor their children’s social media on both comput- ers and cellphones as there are individu- als using social media sites to lure young people in the community.

Resident taken to hospital after Ajax house fire AJAX -- One man was taken to hospital for observation after a fire broke out in an Ajax home. Ajax Fire Services was on scene at 120 Heron St., near Harwood Avenue and Doric Street, after flames broke out in the house just after noon Aug. 20. “The fire was in the floor- ing area and because of the age of the house and the way it’s constructed, it was a bit difficult,” said Ajax Deputy Fire Chief Michael Gamba. Two adult residents were home at the time of the fire. The cause of the fire is under investi- gation. 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 • Au g u s t 2 8 , 2 0 1 3 14 AP availableaugust24,2013 ourchristmaswishbook2013catalogue!

But asthma experts say there is no reason for a child with well-managed asthma to avoid playing sports and running around just like the other kids. “In fact, if asthma is interfering with the child’s ability to play and be active, that is a strong signal that the asthma is not under control,” said Carole Madeley, director of respiratory health programs with the Ontario Lung Association. September is the month when asthma management is front of mind for health-care professionals as they prepare for the “September Spike” – a sharp increase in the number of people, mainly children, arriving at hospital emergency departments with asthma symptoms. Researchers attribute this to several factors. Over the summer holidays, many children do not manage their asthma properly – some even stop using their asthma medicines. When they return to school, children are exposed to cold viruses. With their asthma poorly managed, they are more likely to suffer a flare-up when they get a cold. Here’s some advice from the Ontario Lung Association to help you and your child avoid a trip to the hospital in September: • If your child doesn’t already have a written “asthma action plan”, ask your health- care provider for one so that you’ll both know what to do if asthma symptoms start. Make sure you and your child know how to use the action plan and follow it all year. Asthma doesn’t take a summer holiday. • Any symptoms such as coughing, wheezing, chest tightness or shortness of breath can mean asthma is not under control. The asthma action plan will help you to get it back under control.

To avoid problems when playing sports or exercising, your child should warm up first and start slowly. Although most children with well-controlled asthma should not need to use a reliever inhaler before exercising, if it is needed it should be taken 10 to 15 minutes before the activity. If symptoms occur while playing, your child should stop, use a reliever inhaler and not start again until the symptoms are gone. To help your child to stay active with asthma, order the free Asthma Active activity book by calling The Lung Association Lung Health Information Line at 1-888-344-LUNG (5864). INC.

Pickering resident a martial arts pioneer Rob Norton founded Shoto-Chi as a teenager in England, inducted into U.S. hall of fame Brad Kelly bkelly@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The variety of interests 17 year olds pursue is a lengthy one, but few will have the longevity of Rob Norton’s pas- sion. His idea, or rather art form, will live on forever, after he was inducted into the United States Martial Arts Hall of Fame for being the founder and grand master of Sho- to-Chi, a unique martial art that specializes in a realistic approach to conflict resolu- tion through the understanding of human behaviour. The Pickering resident founded Shoto- Chi at the age of 17 while growing up in England. For 23 years he has honed the craft to get it to the point it’s at today, con- sidered less a form of karate and more of a unique martial art, which was his original intention. “Reading body language, knowing what tone and pitch gets the right results and using that to manipulate a conflict to bring it to a resolution and peaceful end whenev- er possible,” says Norton in explaining the concept. In 1999, Norton was officially awarded the title of master, and in 2001 brought the art to Canada. While here he connected with people in the United States and eventually became a member of the U.S. Grand Mas- ters Council. The nomination for the hall of fame came through that association. The induction ceremony was held in Phoenix, Arizona, coming shortly after he obtained his PhD in Martial Science through the University of San Diego. “The best thing for me was that I got to connect with so many martial artists, mas- ters, grand masters, a lot of founders,” he says of the induction ceremony. “It was a wonderful experience because there were like-minded individuals and there were no egos. Everybody wanted to share their art with each other, share their stories and have some fun. “It was a humbling experience after 23 years of the art, to have it recognized in that way. It was a great honour.” Shoto-Chi is built around the needs and strengths of an individual and there are no coloured belts as a way of grading, which breaks away from tradition. What it does, says Norton, is complement other arts. On Sept. 14 he will be holding an interac- tive seminar at the Harmony Martial Arts and Fitness Centre in Pickering. 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 • Au g u s t 2 8 , 2 0 1 3 18 AP Sports Brad Kelly Sports Editor / bkelly@durhamregion.com / 905-579-4400 #2254 PICKERING -- Rob Norton of Pickering was inducted into the U.S. Martial Arts Hall of Fame at a ceremony in Phoenix, Arizona.

SuBmitted photo BULGARIA -- Ajax’s Braxton Papadopoulos helped Canada earn a medal on the open- ing day of the 2013 FILA junior world wres- tling championships in Sofia, Bulgaria, In the women’s 59kg weight class, Papa- dopoulos went on to win the silver medal, losing the gold-medal match against Tser- enchimed Sukhee of Mongolia. Papadopoulos, the current senior Pan American champion wrestling for Team Impact, started her day on a powerful note by defeating Aisuluu Tynybekova of Kyr- gyzstan 8-6 by fall. She then opened up the motors and defeated Anzhela Fomenko of Russia (3-2) and Luisa Niemisch of Germa- ny (6-1) in the semifinals to earn her gold- medal match ticket. In the gold-medal match, Papadopoulos trailed 0-2 in the first of two three-minute periods, and gave all she had in the second period, but eventually lost 9-3 against the powerful Mongolia wrestler. A pool of 22 wrestlers took to the mats in the 59kg weight class. “It’s very exciting to see Canadian athletes who are not afraid to step up and believe they can win on the highest stage. Braxton has had an amazing year. The Mongolian wrestled a heck of a match against her. But at her age it’s about learning from each experi- ence. She will be back,” said Leigh Vierling, the head coach of the Canadian women’s wrestling team. Tonya Verbeek, Canada’s most decorated Olympian and talent identification coach for Wrestling Canada, was pleased with the efforts: “Braxton persevered to get to the finals and was just shy of the gold medal. Her opponents were ready for her as she has had a successful year so far,” she said. Ajax’s Braxton Papadopoulos wins silver at junior wrestling world championships Baseball Ajax Sparrows reach final MICHIGAN -- The Ajax Spartans Minor Ban- tam (1999) team were finalists in a tourna- ment just outside of Detroit in Farmington Hills, Michigan. The Spartans had a few ups and downs during round robin play, but made it through the round robin undefeated. Saturday eve- ning the team spent at Comerica Park watch- ing the Detroit Tigers versus the Philadelphia Phillies. In the semifinals the Spartans faced some stiff competition from Huron Valley Rebels. This was a tremendous see-saw battle where Ajax held a three run lead once, and the Rebels held a three run lead twice in the game, including going into the bottom of the final inning. TheSpartans mounted a four run final inning come-back that resulted in a walk-off victory for Ajax and moved them into the finals against the only other undefeated team in the tournament. The finals saw the Monroe Mustangs jump out to a five run first inning lead. The Ajax Spartans chipped away at the lead but never took hold of the lead. The final game finished up at 7-4. archery Ajax athlete off to worlds AJAX -- Andrew Fagan of Ajax will lead a strong team of Canadian archers to the 2013 world archery championship in Antalya, Tur- key, Sept, 29 to Oct. 7. Athletes named by Archery Canada for the championships were selected during the national team trials, held in Woodstock, New Brunswick. Fagan will be competing in the individual and team events for compound bow archers. He has competed in a number of World Cup events over the past few years. In 2010, Fagan was a member of the Commonwealth Games archery team and gained internation- al experience. He has made steady improve- ment at the international level since then. “The men’s compound team is very strong and will definitely be one of the favou- rites in the team event,” said Joan McDonald, head coach of Canada’s archery team for the 2012 London 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 • Au g u s t 2 8 , 2 0 1 3 19 AP NEW!NEW!DISCOVER IMPROVE ACHIEVE Oshawa: 200 John St. W. oshawatrucking.com � �� 4-month internship with leading-edge transportation companies � �� Introduction to Supply Chain & Logistics � �� Commercial Driver Improvement (Defensive Driving) Course Certificate � Air Brake Training � 50 hours of one-on-one in-cab instruction � Training on state-of-the-art 3D simulators 40WEEKS PROFESSIONAL TRANSPORT OPERATOR � �� Air Brake Training � Commercial Driver Improvement (Defensive Driving) Course Certificate � Preparation for AZ Class license � Training on state-of-the-art 3D simulators 8WEEKS TRACTOR-TRAILER (AZ) Member of:Delivered inPartnership with: Courses include a diploma from theTruck Training Schools Association of Ontario (TTSAO).
