Isabelle Platnar, 8, was diagnosed with the disease at nine months old and needs to be on supplementary oxygen at all times. Recent data shows it takes three years for many people with this disease to be diagnosed. Isabelle sat with family members Isaac, Gabrielle and Sarah Platnar. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland Pickering family raising awareness of rare lung disease New data shows diagnosis takes an average of three years Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- When Isabelle Platnar rides her bike, her mom has to run behind her with an oxygen tank. The local eight-year-old has struggled with a rare lung dis- ease since she was a baby and must been hooked up to supple- mental oxygen 24/7. “As a kid you want to be with your friends, running around in the school yard,” says her mother, Sarah Platnar. “We try to keep life as normal as pos- sible, but it’s very challenging.” Shortly after birth, Isabelle was diagnosed with a hole in her diaphragm. That led to a diagnosis of pulmonary hyper- tension, a potentially fatal lung disease. See PICKERING page 10 Durham drivers urged to take extra care this long weekend Brad Andrews bandrews@durhamregion.com ONTARIO -- An increase in off- road vehicle and motorcycle-relat- ed deaths has police urging caution this May long weekend. "Our winter was extended a lit- tle bit longer this year and people aren't used to these vehicles on the road again," says Sergeant Peter Leon of Ontario Provincial Police. He urges people on highways this weekend to be aware of their surroundings and check their blindspots. Sgt. Leon adds drivers should be prepared for increased traffic and plan for longer trip times. "Pack a little patience," he advises. "You'll get where you need to go." According to OPP, 20 people died in off-road vehicle accidents in the province last year, up from 12 in 2012, 14 in 2011 and 17 in 2012. In last year’s deaths, 13 were attributed to lack of helmet use and nine involved alcohol. A similar increase was noted in motorcycle accidents, with 28 deaths in 2013 compared to 26 in 2012 and 21 in 2011. He adds driver behaviour is a common issue in both off-road and motorcycle-related incidents. "A lot of people get out on the trails and roads and we want them to use this equipment in a safe and responsible manner," he says. Being aware of surroundings, wearing helmets and remaining sober are all ways Sgt. Leon says off- road vehicle riders can stay safe.

Ajax seeking gold level designation for Pan Am Games AJAX -- The Town wants to be golden. Ajax is aiming for gold level Pan Am Games municipal designation. Getting the designation, which will cost $132,500, could bring a higher degree of exposure, visibility and engage- ment. A staff report noted the exposure through the program “is far reaching and has many long lasting social and economic benefits.” Having the designation would ensure the Town would be featured in media coverage, both broadcast and print, staff say.

Real tough. But, sometimes a confession can set the record straight, and I want to give credit where credit is due. Before I talk about my confession, though, let me say a few other things first. Let me start by explaining the photo in this letter. You know, when I meet people in town they usually say,“Oh, yeah, I know you, you’re Dr. Clay. I’ve seen your article with that picture of you, your wife and cute little boy.” Well, I’m the guy on the right. Years ago something happened to me that changed my life forever. Let me tell you my story. At the time, I’m a contractor for my fathers’ construction business, and life is good.But then, it happens…I develop a painful back condition known as “disc bulge/herniation”. In my case it comes on suddenly. The pain in my back gets so intense that I can’t bend over, lifting anything is impossible, and I can’t even put on my shoes. The shooting pain sometimes wakes me up in the middle of the night. I’m afraid that I’ll hurt my fathers’ business if the disability continues. After considering surgery (that’s the only option, according to the doctor) I decide against it. But, there’s more… A friend of mine convinces me to give his doctor a try. This new doctor does an exam, takes some films, and then ‘adjusts’ my spine (he tells me that there’s nerve pressure on the nerves in my low back). The adjustment doesn’t hurt, it actually feels good. I get relief, and shortly after I can help my father again.Oh, did I mention that this doctor is a chiropractor? Chiropractic works so well for me, and I’m so impressed with the other ‘miracles’ I see in his office, that I eventually go to chiropractic school myself. And that’s how it happened!” Now, as for my son Dominic, he’s the cute little guy in the photo. He is about the healthiest little guy I know. You see, he had his first adjustment when he was days old and has had regular Chiropractic since. I see many children who suffer from “growing pains”, scoliosis, headaches, attention deficit disorder, allergies and asthma. Can you imagine a little kid not being able to play with their friends in gym class, because they’re afraid of having an asthma attack or because their allergies prevent them from doing so? That seems like a small thing but it makes a big difference to those families when their children’s health is restored. The beautiful woman on the left is my wife Princess. She knows enough to ask me to adjust her when she feels like she may be getting sick, or just to stay “tuned up.” It’s strange how life is, because now people come to see me with their disc problems. Also they come to me with their headaches, migraines, chronic pain, neck pain, shoulder/arm pain, whiplash from car accidents, backaches, ear infections, asthma, allergies, numbness in limbs, athletic injuries,just to name a few. “Here’s what some of your neighbors had to say: “I feel wonderful. I ran up stairs for the first time in years.” (P. K. – Ajax) “For the first time in years I feel good. Sciatica is gone” (D. S. – Pickering) “I haven’t had to take pain pills since starting care.” (A. C. – Ajax) “I wish I knew about… Chiropractic earlier.” (A. E. – Pickering) Don’t just take my word for it, take a look at our google reviews. Several times a day patients thank me for helping them with their health problems. But I can’t really take the credit.My confession is that I’ve never healed anyone of anything.What I do is perform a specific spinal adjustment to remove nerve pressure, and the body responds by healing itself.We get tremendous results. It’s as simple as that! Being a chiropractor can be tough, because there’s a host of so-called experts out there. They tell people a lot of things that are just plain ridiculous about my profession. But the studies speak for themselves, like the Virginia study that showed that over 90% of patients who saw a chiropractor were satisfied with their results. That’s just incredible! Millions of Canadians no longer have supplemental health insurance, and many of those who do have found that their benefits are reduced. That’s where chiropractic comes in. Many people find that they actually save money on their health care expenses by seeing a chiropractor. Another way to save… published, peer-reviewed research indicates that the immune system may be enhanced by chiropractic adjustments. The immune system is the system that helps the body fight colds, the flu, and many other sicknesses. Although all people respond differently to care, maybe you won’t be running off to the doctor as much once you start chiropractic. This is especially important if you are self-employed.And an entire week of care in my office may cost what you could pay for one visit elsewhere. You Benefit from an Amazing Offer-Look, it shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg to correct your health. You are going to write a check to someone for your health care expenses,you may as well write one for a lesser amount for chiropractic. Be one of the first 20 people to call and schedule a new patient exam. When you bring in this article, you will receive my entire new patient exam for $37. That’s with x-rays, complete nerve, muscle and spinal exam to seek the “cause” of your problem…. the whole ball of wax. This exam could cost you $150 elsewhere. But, please call right away because this offer expires on May 29 th, 2014, and I don’t want you to miss out. By the way, further care is very affordable and you’ll be happy to know that I have affordable family plans.You see I’m not trying to seduce you to come see me with this low start up fee, then to only make it up with high fees after that.High costs can add up very quickly. Great care at a great fee…Please, I hope that there’s no misunderstanding about quality of care just because I have a lower exam fee. You’ll get great care at a great fee. My qualifications… I’m a graduate of New York Chiropractic College. I’ve been entrusted to take care of tiny babies to pro athletes that you may even know. After practicing in Pittsburgh PA for three years, I moved my practice to Ajax. I just have that low exam fee to help more people who need care. Again, be one of the first 20 appointments available. My assistant is Nancy and she is a really great person. Our office is both friendly and warm and we try our best to make you feel at home. We have a wonderful service, at an exceptional fee. Our office is called Health First Family Chiropractic and it’s at 335 Bayly St. West – Suite 206 Ajax (we are across from the old Chrysler plant). Our phone number is 289-275-2444. Call Nancy or me today for an appointment. We can help you. Thank you and God Bless. P. S.When accompanied by the first, I am also offering the second family member this same examination for only $20. P. P. S.Can you imagine not having to wait at a doctor’s office? Well, your time is as valuable as mine. That’s why we have a no-wait policy. You will be seen within minutes of your appointment time.

The Celebrating Sustainable Neigh- borhoods program encourages groups of five or more people who work or live in Pickering to complete various activities. The activities should relate with one or more of Pickering’s 55 sustainability indi- cators and can include litter cleanups, charitable yard sales and planting com- munity gardens. Groups can participate until the end of November, when there will be a cel- ebration event at which a peer vote will determine the winning group. The winners will have the opportuni- ty to work with the City of Pickering on a community infrastructure project valued at up to $10,000.

Police said Monday that a man is accused of forcing his ex-girlfriend into a car in the campus parking lot at about 12:30 p.m. Fri- day. A suspect was inside the woman’s car awaiting her arrival prior to the incident, Durham police said. Police said initial reports suggested the suspect may have been armed, which trig- gered a lockdown on the campus. The lockdown was lifted after investiga- tors confirmed the suspect had fled the area. Police said the complainant was driven to a Scarborough motel, where she and the suspect were found with the help of Toron- to police later that night. The victim was not physically injured dur- ing the incident and no weapon was found. Sgt. Bill Calder said the suspect’s name will not be released to protect the identity of the victim. The man has been charged with forcible confinement, kidnapping, mischief under $5,000, theft under $5,000, posses- sion of stolen property and breach of pro- bation. Sgt. Calder also said police did not release information about the incident after the lockdown was lifted so the suspect didn’t become aware police were looking for him. “If we put that out there we would be tell- ing the source we are looking for him,” said the sergeant. The suspect was held for a bail hearing.

Pickering considers battle against Frenchman’s Bay water weed Councillors waver on grant money for weevil program Jillian Follert jfollert@durhamregion.com PICKERING -- The battle against an aggressive water weed is continu- ing in Pickering. This year the Allies of Frenchman’s Bay Association hopes to spend $81,000 on an action plan to reduce Eurasian water-milfoil. The invasive species chokes out native aquatic plants, harms fish and wildlife habitat, encourages algae growth and creates problems for boaters. On May 12 council’s executive committee considered a report rec- ommending a grant of $21,875 towards the program. But, approval was tripped up by concerns about exactly which weed control methods would be used. The Allies of Frenchman’s Bay Association has said the 2014 plan will focus on introducing weevils into the bay, tiny insects that eat the unwanted weed, while leaving domestic plant life untouched. But Councillor Jennifer O’Connell is concerned that other methods, such as herbicides, are being researched by the group. She stressed significant money has been spent to clean up the bay and said introducing a herbicide into the water would be “outrageous. “If the committee wants to look at alternatives that’s their perogative ... but not with public funds,” she said. Jim Dike, president of Allies of Frenchman’s Bay Association, said weevils are the main focus for 2014, but stressed it’s important to research other options. “Weevils may not work for the entire bay,” he noted. “They are not effective in areas with high boat traffic.” Eurasian water-milfoil lay dormant in Frenchman’s Bay for years, then began to grow aggressively in the summer of 2012 when there were low water levels and high temperatures. The Allies of Frenchman’s Bay Association expects the weed control project to be ongoing for several years and plans to request $20,000 from the City for 2015, $10,000 for 2016 and $5,000 for 2017. “What’s projected for 2018 and beyond? Will it be zero for sure?” asked Councillor Peter Rodrigues, expressing concern about the City being on the hook for years of grant money. City staff said it’s a complex problem. “There is no silver bullet, this is going to require monitoring over the next four or five years,” noted City CAO Tony Prevedel. “There may be budget implications beyond 2017.” Council’s executive committee voted to send the issue back to City staff for clarification on exactly which weed control methods would be funded by a City grant.

What you’re not eating It’s the night before waste collection day and you’re busy cleaning out the fridge of all the food you had good intentions of eating. Often the food being composted is perfectly good for the most part; food you either bought too much of, believe has gone bad or don’t think is appealing enough to eat. Although composting is a great way to deal with expected food scraps such as apple cores and banana peels, don’t you think it’s much better to eat the food you buy rather than toss it in the green bin? The numbers are staggering; some studies show we waste almost 40 per cent of the food we buy. While no one buys food with the intention of throwing it away, most food waste wouldn’t happen if we took the time to plan better and sharpen our food storage skills. Follow these simple food tips to help you reduce food waste and save money: Plan your shopping: Create a menu for your meals for a week. Check the ingredients in your fridge and cupboards, then write a shop- ping list for just the extras you need. Check the dates: If you’re not planning to eat a certain item with a short “best before” date, look for ones with a longer “best before” date or plan to buy it on the day you need it. Keep a healthy fridge: Check the seals and the temperature of your fridge. Food needs to be stored below 4 C for maximum freshness and longevity. Rotate: When you buy new food from the store, bring all the older items in your cupboards and fridge to the front. Put the new food at the back to reduce the risk of finding something mouldy in your food storage compartments. Use up your leftovers: Instead of scraping leftovers into the green bin, they can be used for lunches the following day, go into the next day’s dinner or be frozen for another occasion. Fruit that is just going soft can be used to make smoothies or fruit pies. Vegetables that are starting to wilt can be used in soups. Your freezer is your friend: If you only eat a small amount of bread, then freeze it. When you get home take out a few slices a couple of hours before you need them. Likewise, batch cook foods so that you have meals ready for those evenings when you are too tired to cook. All frozen things should be in an airtight container with as much air removed as possible. Air contains moisture that creates ice crystals that “burn” the food or make it deteriorate faster. Freezing in a flat, rectangular, clear, glass container works so you can see your food and stack containers. Keep them separated: Keep apples, bananas, citrus and tomatoes away from other produce; they give off ethylene gas that makes the other produce ripen/deteriorate faster. Free your greens: Untie all bunches (herbs, greens, etc.) to allow produce to breathe. Use your fridge’s crisper drawer. The higher humid- ity environment benefits many vegetables by helping them last longer. If you can adjust the humidity setting on your crisper drawer, set it on high humidity for leafy greens and on low for non-leafy vegetables like carrots and cucumbers.

What a concept. Let me be perfectly clear: shared par- enting does exist, just not in our family law system. Canada’s adversarial, winner-take-all approach to family law sets divorcing par- ents up to do battle, with the winner get- ting sole custody and the loser getting every other weekend, if they’re lucky. Fully 59 per cent of divorcing parents don’t use our court system; those parents put their kids’ needs before their own. They do so because they understand that their children will fare much better with both parents involved in their lives. And research continues to demon- strate that kids need mothers and fathers and co-parenting is best for everyone involved. It’s the problematic or narcissistic par- ent who can’t put a child or children first; their anger, or need for control or revenge, takes priority. They will win at all cost. Innocent children of divorce are then used in the divorce war. Clearly our exist- ing system isn’t working in the best inter- est of children; it’s working in the best interest of the courts. Proposed legislation in the form of a Private Members Bill C-560 for Equal, Shared Parenting, was tabled by MP Mau- rice Vellacott last December. We urge all MPs to vote yes on Bill C-560. Paulette MacDonald Oshawa Different rules when it involves police? To the editor: Re: ‘Durham cop who pulled gun on fel- low officer reinstated’, news, durhamregion. com, May 2, 2014. Two things bother me with regard to this story. One, this matter was handled inter- nally. If a non-policeman was charged, the individual would be tried in a regular court. This did not happen but was kept in- house. Secondly, I wonder how his fellow offi- cers feel about having to deal with this fellow worker carrying a weapon. I can appreciate that post traumatic stress dis- order seems to be a common illness, how- ever no reference was made to this officer being involved in any war zones. Perhaps this officer is just not cut out to be in this position. As a citizen I do not have a lot of confidence in the police department having this type of individual on the streets, particularly in view of recent police shootings.Jim Fegan Simulation vital to Durham’s disaster readiness It going to be big, it’s going to be stressful and it could mean the difference between success and failure, life and death. A three-day nuclear disaster response exercise, the largest in Ontario’s history, according to provincial officials, is being prepared at the Darlington Nuclear Gen- erating Station at month’s end to test the response capability of federal, provincial and local agencies in case of a real nuclear emergency. The exercise, dubbed Exercise Unified Response, will help gauge how agencies and government departments co-ordi- nate their efforts and work together in a nuclear disaster. Lessons learned from the upcoming exercise would also assist residents, municipal leaders and Ontario Power Generation in Pickering and Ajax in the similarly unlikely chance that a nuclear emergency occurs. This is the first multi-jurisdictional exer- cise since 1999. Given the frightening nuclear emergency at Japan’s Fukushima plant following the 2011 earthquake and tsunami, this updated exercise becomes even more vitally important. The simulation has been in the planning for more than a year and even the agencies that are taking part in the response sce- nario will not know the nature of the “acci- dent” until the exercise gets underway. In all, more than 50 federal, provincial, regional, municipal, hospital and school board organizations are expected to take part. For residents in Clarington, Ajax and Pickering, the “emergency” might seem real. Nuclear alerting sirens will be sound- ed as part of the exercise, and residents might notice more emergency vehicles travelling on local roads. But it is the authenticity of the exercise that will provide results when the event is completed and being scrutinized to deter- mine areas where work is needed, and to measure the things that went as planned. The end result, a working and workable plan to address an emergency on behalf of residents, is the ultimate goal of participat- ing agencies. We remind residents that this is just a test, an important exercise that must be carried out. And we credit local agencies, OPG offi- cials, regional and provincial emergency management offices, and others taking part for acknowledging its vital importance to Durham residents. Chances are that we will never have to confront a Fukushima-like incident in Durham Region. But by having a plan and preparing for any eventuality, citizens will be in the best possible position to survive any catastrophe. 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 5 , 2 0 1 4 9 AP Ticks are not just unwelcome guests on our pets. They can actually transmit infections such as Lyme disease. Lyme is a growing problem and in certain areas of On- tario, Lyme disease is becoming common. The good news is that even if a tick transmits Lyme to your dog, only a very small percentage will ever become clini- cally ill from the disease. The same cannot be said for people, and so awareness about ticks for our pets also means increasing our awareness for owners. If you’ve been walking in the same area as your pet and your dog is found positive for Lyme disease, it’s a good idea to get yourself tested for the infection as well. Lyme disease in dogs can lay dormant for many months Ask the Vet: What do I need to knowabout Lyme Disease?Written by Dr. Hillary Butler but can appear as lameness in different legs, loss of appetite and fatigue.

My husband stepped to the kitchen window to see her scratching with both feet beneath the feeder, doing the same jump-rake motion that white-throated and fox sparrows are noted for. We’d had male eastern towhees singing in the backyard for more than a week, but females migrate a bit later, after the males have set up ter- ritories in the brushy terrain they prefer. Many nest atop the Oak Ridges Moraine. Male towhees are some of the classiest birds going, with their rich orange sides framed by a midnight-black hood, back and tail. Females have the same orange sides and white belly, but are a warm brown everywhere else, much better cam- ouflage for coming and going to the nests they build under a shrub in an overgrown field. After admiring this soon-to-be momma, we looked up at the feeder itself, where another migrant, this one just back from Panama or Venezuela, was chomping sunflower seeds: a female rose-breast- ed grosbeak. The raspberry-red V bib on the white chest of the otherwise black- and-white males ranks them among the most gorgeous birds in the world, in my opinion. Their mates, on the other hand, are dressed for stealth, with streaked and barred brown plumage, good camouflage in the sun-dappled saplings they nest in. Interestingly enough, both the gaudy males and streaky females share nest- building and egg-brooding duties, sing- ing to one another softly as they exchange places. A neighbour reported seeing yet anoth- er prized migrant at our feeder that same day, a species known for migrating at night, using the stars for guidance on their way from the Florida Keys and Cuba. She said four indigo buntings dropped in for a snack, at least one a stunning, sky-blue male. The brown females look like spar- rows, the better to tend their secretive cup nests in shrubs a metre off the ground, at the edges of woods and fields. Most spectacular of all are scarlet tana- gers, the males a brilliant blood-red with coal-black wings and a silvery beak. Their mates, two of which I saw feeding high in our black cherry tree, are greenish-yellow, perfectly dressed to hide among leaves in the treetops of mature deciduous forests, or sometimes hemlocks, where they build saucerlike nests of twigs, grasses and root- lets on a flat limb. After breeding season, the males molt to the same yellow-green before heading down to South American forests to overwinter. Brown-headed cowbirds are named for the males, which have a chocolate head and metallic green-black body. The females’ plain, shadowy grey garb makes it easy for these brood parasites to slip into other birds’ nests and quickly lay an egg for their unsuspecting hosts to raise -- all four of the above species among them.

In patients with pulmonary hyperten- sion, the arteries in the lungs become closed off or scarred, resulting in high blood pressure in the lungs. An estimated 5,000 Canadians have been diagnosed with the disease, but experts think as many as 10,000 could be affected. There is no cure. Patients with the most severe form of pulmonary hypertension live an average of two to three years if left untreated. The Platnar family wants to raise awareness of the disease and the need for early diagnosis. A new Canadian survey shows the aver- age time from first symptoms to diagno- sis is three years -- way too long. About half of patients surveyed said their family doctor did not initially rec- ognize the symptoms and make a refer- ral to a specialist. “This is not a common disease; the average family physician or internist out there hasn’t seen it,” says Dr. San- jay Mehta, who chairs the Pulmonary Hypertension Association of Canada’s board of directors. He said members of the public are also largely unaware of it. “When someone gets shortness of breath, which is the most common symptom, they don’t think this is the issue.” The survey reveals patients suffer for years with breathlessness, tiredness and fatigue before seeking medical attention. Ms. Platnar hopes for the day when better awareness and funding will lead to more research, more treatment options, and ultimately a cure. Despite the challenges Isabelle faces, the local girl tries to live life to the fullest. She is a Grade 3 student at St. Monica Catholic School in Pickering, loves to play the grand piano she received from the Children’s Wish Foundation and tries her hand at riding a bike, inline skating and whatever else her classmates and older siblings are up to. But she struggles with fatigue every day. “Things we can easily do are a chal- lenge for her; it’s like she’s running a marathon all day long,” Isabelle’s mother says. “We think of every day as a gift ... but someday we hope for a better quality of life.” Visit www.phacanada.ca for more information or to make a donation.

At CrossFit Pickering, coaches believe in inclusive fitness. It is a core strength and conditioning pro- gram. Ms. Blaze describes CrossFit as constantly varied, high-intensity, functional move- ment. CrossFit exercises are designed to target several areas of the body. Coaches are knowledgeable in injury prevention, trained in mobility, physiology and anato- my. CrossFit Pickering was one of the first of its kind in Durham, and in the GTA. Ms. Blaze has a passion for transforming the lives of her clients both physically and mentally. In 2007, she found her passion for CrossFit and gained her level one trainer certification. She is trained in rehabilitation exercises with more than 10 years’ expe- rience with injury prevention. Ms. Blaze enjoys customizing each client’s workout to address particular weaknesses, condi- tions, postural problems or injures includ- ing shoulder problems, neck and shoulder tension, hip, knee and ankle issues. Join us next week as we walk you through a guide to CrossFit. Watch as coaches dem- onstrate the proper way to squat, deadlift, powerlift and more. For more information, visit: crossfitpickering.com. Series Breakdown: • Monday, May 19: What is Cross- Fit? Ms. Blaze defines CrossFit, breaks down barriers and myths, and discusses what you should look for in a CrossFit gym. • Tuesday, May 20: CrossFit fit- ness domains Ms. Blaze explains some of the 10 core fitness domains in Cross- Fit including: cardiovascular and respiratory endurance, stamina, strength, flexibility, power, speed, co-ordination, agility, balance and accuracy. • Wednesday, May 21: The squat In this video, Ms. Blaze and her coaches demonstrate the squat exercise. The squat helps to keep hips, back and knees sound and functioning as you age. It is also rehabilitative for cranky, damaged or delicate knees. • Thursday, May 22: The deadlift Watch as the deadlift embodies functional movement. Anytime we are asked to lift something off the floor, we do a deadlift. Regard- less of whether your fitness goals are to “rev up” your metabolism, increase strength or lean body mass, decrease body fat, or reha- bilitate your back, the deadlift is a marked shortcut to that end. • Friday, May 23: Travel workout When we travel it is hard to find a way to work out. In this video, Ms. Blaze has some great travel work- outs which can be done outside or in the comfort of your hotel room.

Now that you are spending more time outside, the first place you may want to start with is the backyard. It’s amazing what a fence and a deck can do for your yard, transforming it into a place that you want to spend time all summer long. Imagine the backyard BBQs you can have with friends and family! Not only do you want to make sure that your deck is the right size, but you also want to make sure that it’s stable and built properly. That’s where Murphy’s Home Improvement Services can help. For over 25 years, the business has been completing home renovations for their clients, and they are currently accepting bookings for decks and fences. Owner James Murphy’s focus is always on quality, and he specializes in custom woodworking, especially with decks. Having a deck built now will give you and your family all summer long to enjoy it! Murphy’s Home Improvement Services doesn’t just do decks and fences. In fact, the business can help you with just about any kind of home repair or renovation. If your kitchen or bathrooms are looking tired, it’s time for some improvements. New cabinets, countertops, flooring, and backsplashes can make a huge difference in the look of your room. With new cabinets, you can maximize your storage space without sacrificing design. Unfinished basements are full of potential. When you finish your basement, you are adding significant square footage to your home. Whether you want a rec room or an -in-law suite, Murphy’s Home Improvement Services can help. If you are planning on selling your home, you want to make sure that it’s in good repair before you put it on the market. A home that shows well and is in good condition usually sells faster and for more money. To save time and make sure it’s repaired right, have Murphy’s Home Improvement Services take care of the repairs for you. You can give them a list of what needs to be fixed, from fixing holes in drywall to repairing doors that stick to painting, they will take all those repairs off of your ‘to do’ list.

The game was an undisciplined affair from the start for the Ironheads, who fell behind 6-0 early and ended up losing 13-4. It was the Ironheads’ third game in four nights and seventh in 14 days. After a 2-2 start to the season, the team seemed to have lost its early momentum during the Saturday game against undefeated Gloucester. “We had the game well in hand,” said head coach Ron Reed. “We had (Glouces- ter), I think, 9-5 going into the third period and ended up losing 13-10. We had a ter- rible third period that carried over to our game against Nepean on Sunday where we had a terrible first half.” It was another rough start Tuesday, where defensive lapses cost the Ironheads throughout the game and allowed Bull- dogs standout Jayson Crawford multiple breakaways. Crawford didn’t miss often and finished the game with four goals and five points. Matt Fountain and Patrick Morgan were the Ironheads leading scor- ers with two points apiece. There was a scary moment at the start of the second period when immediately after Crawford completed his hat trick, he was shoved from behind, head first, into the boards by Thomas Dannecker. Dannecker received a five-minute major and a game misconduct for the play, while Crawford was shaken up but remained in the game. The Ironheads heavily outplayed Halton Hills in the third period but it was too lit- tle, too late as the 11-goal lead they spot- ted the Bulldogs was too much to over- come. “We didn’t show up,” said Reed. “We didn’t show up until midway through the second period. It wasn’t just one player’s fault, the whole team didn’t show up. No excuses, the team just wasn’t ready.” Goalie Matthew Law stopped 22 of the 34 shots he faced, while backup Chris Steele allowed a goal on the only shot he faced. The Ironheads only had 24 shots on the Bulldogs net. “You saw the difference between us and Halton Hills tonight,” said Reed. “They were ready to play. “In this level of lacrosse you need to play for 60 minutes and our guys seem to come out and think they can play for half a game and win. It just doesn’t happen in this league.” Halton Hills moved to 3-2 on the season with the win, while the Ironheads fell to 2-5. “Hopefully they realize if they don’t start playing soon, they’re going to play them- selves out of a playoff spot,” said Reed of his own team. The Ironheads looked to stop the three- game losing streak Wednesday against Mississauga. Results were not available at press time. AJAX -- Ajax Ironheads’ Quinn Wilson, left, raced after a loose ball against Halton Hills Bulldogs’ Dakota Rocco during their Ontario Junior B Lacrosse League game at the Ajax Community Centre. The Bulldogs beat the Ironheads 13-4. Ryan Pfeiffer / Metroland Markell Nelson makes NCAA all-rookie team with Drexel Luke Callebert lcallebert@durhamregion.com WHITBY -- To say Markell Nelson’s first sea- son at Drexel University has been a success would be an understatement. The Anderson Collegiate graduate was named to the Colonial Athletic Association all-rookie team and his Dragons lacrosse team won the first CAA championship in team history, as well as first NCAA tourna- ment game. “It’s definitely amazing,” says Nelson, who played his minor lacrosse through the West Durham program in Ajax-Pickering. “I mean winning a championship at any level is great, but doing it at the NCAA level, it’s always been my dream. “There’s 85 years of alumni who had been trying to do exactly what we just did. We’re the first ones to do it, so it definitely makes it that much more special.” It wasn’t an easy road to the champion- ship, though. The Dragons were down by three with just five minutes left in the championship. The Dragons scored three goals in just over two minutes to stun the team from Hofs- tra and tie the game at 10-10. Both teams traded chances across three overtime peri- ods before Drexel was able to finally put one home to win the CAA title. “You could tell we were a little bit worried, but we were also really determined,” says Nelson. “We just buckled down and fought hard. We have a great draw man in Nick Saputo, he’s one of the best in the nation, so he helped us and our offence is deadly and we went down there and did what we had to do.” Nelson’s road to the all-rookie team wasn’t easy either. “I had the goal when I came in that I wanted to be on the all-rookie team,” says Nelson. “I had some people tell me they thought I was crazy because we have quite a few senior starters on the defensive end and to be all-rookie you need to be a starter.” Nelson accomplished the feat while learn- ing a new position. He was switched from defence to a long-stick midfielder by the coaches because of his speed and agility. The switch has helped him to play in all 17 games for Drexel so far this season. The Dragons continued their remarkable season in first round of the NCAA champi- onship by upsetting fourth-seeded Penn State 16-11 Sunday, booking a trip to the quarter-finals this Sunday against fifth- seeded Denver. 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 5 , 2 0 1 4 24 AP Durham/Northumberland Division - Oshawa Location Full Time Managing Editor - Management THE COMPANY A subsidiary of Torstar Corporation, Metroland is one of Canada's premier media companies.
