PICKERINGNews Adver tiser durhamregion.com SEPTEMBER 9, 2015 Kristen Calis kcalis@durhamregion.comBefore tablets and smartphones, and even comput- ers and laptops, receiving a postcard or a hand- written letter in the mail was quite common. Now, friends and family usually send Face- book messages, e-mails and text messages, or simply post thoughts on Twitter, all of which can be done through a smartphone. The use of handwriting is dwindling in Ontario schools, where cursive has become one way students can publish their work, a far cry from the time when it was the only method. HANDWRITING: Is a lack of cursive writing in Durham schools a lost art or a reality of the times? p.2 Exploring the federal party policies: protecting EI benefits p.20 Pickering Real Estate listings OSHAWA -- Allyson Eamer, assistant professor in UOIT’s Faculty of Education, feels cursive reading as well as writ- ing have become a lost art.

DURHAM -- The end of another week of dur- hamregion.com’s informal poll of voter preferenc- es leading up to the Oct. 19 election shows the NDP continues to lead by a wide margin. Both the federal Liberals and Conservatives have fallen considerably in the last week in an ongoing informal poll here at durhamregion.com to determine voter intentions. In week five, Tom Mulcair’s NDP continues to lead all the challengers with 98 per cent of decided voters. The Liberals picked up a paltry two per cent, while the Conservatives and Green Party didn’t register any new support. There is still nearly seven weeks to go until election day, so those numbers could change considerably over the course of this long election campaign.

Nuclear emergency potassium iodide pills to be mailed out Hundreds of thousands of Durham households and businesses to get KI pills for emergency preparation Jennifer O’Meara jomeara@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Homes and businesses around Pickering and Darlington nucle- ar stations will soon receive a supply of KI pills to keep people from getting thyroid cancer if there’s a nuclear accident. The Canadian Nuclear Safety Commis- sion, which monitors the operation of nuclear stations, has increased its safety standards and now requires all homes and businesses within 10 kilometres of a nucle- ar station to receive a supply of KI pills by 2016. Ontario Power Generation, which runs the local nuclear stations, and the Durham Region health department are working together to get the pills to 200,000 homes and businesses around the Darlington and Pickering power stations. The Durham dis- tribution is much larger than other nuclear host communities, which numbered in the thousands of households and businesses. OPG and Durham health department are also launching a public awareness cam- paign to help people understand what KI pills are, how to store them and when they might be needed. “Safety remains our No. 1 priority at OPG,” said Kevin Powers, director of nucle- ar public affairs at OPG. KI (the chemical name for potassium iodide) is a salt of stable (not radioactive) iodine. It comes in a tablet that is easily swallowed. It fills up the thyroid gland and blocks radioactive iodine from being absorbed, protecting the gland from radiation. The thyroid, in the throat, is a part of the body that is very sensitive to radioactive iodine. When taken in the recommended dose and at the right time, KI is effective in reducing the risk of thyroid cancer in people at risk of inhalation or ingestion of radioiodines. KI does not protect against other types of radiation. There has never been a serious accident at the Pickering or Darlington nuclear gen- erating stations. However, if there was a radioactive release it would take many hours and days to unfold, according to OPG, and there would be time to respond to emergency instructions. During an emergency, the chief medi- cal officer of health for Ontario will pro- vide instructions through radio, TV, Inter- net and other available channels on where, when, how and by whom KI should be taken. It is important that residents wait for this notification. Do not take the pills unless instructed to do so. People would only need to take the pills for a short peri- od of time, likely one to two days. Previously, KI pills were available to resi- dents for free in select pharmacies near the nuclear stations. However very few people, only seven per cent, went to pick them up. Throughout September, information about the KI pills will be mailed to house- holds and businesses within 10 kilome- tres of the Darlington and Pickering sta- tions. There will also be an information campaign online, local advertising and an information session. “It’s important for (residents) to take action to protect themselves. Look out for the package that comes. So that in the unlikely event they ever need it, they have it,” said Glendene Collins from the Dur- ham health department. In early October, people within 10 kilo- metres of the stations will get the KI pills in the mail. The pills will arrive in a small rectangular blue box, with instruction on how to take them included in the packag- ing. There will be enough pills for a fam- ily of four. Larger families and businesses can visit preparetobesafe.ca to order more pills. The KI pills will be effective for 12 years when stored in a dry location between 15 and 30 C. They should be kept with other emergency supplies and out of the reach of children. The risk of side effects from taking a dose of KI is extremely low for everyone who has a normal thyroid. Stomach upset or aller- gic reaction can occur in rare cases but are generally mild. There is an increased risk of side effects for people with thy- roid disorders (i.e., autoimmune thyroid- itis, Graves’ disease, iodine deficiency and nodular goiter.) These disorders are more common in adults and the elderly, and are rare in children. People who are sen- sitive to iodine, or have a thyroid disorder, or have any other concerns, should talk to their doctor or nurse practitioner before taking a KI pill. Community members with questions or concerns can visit www.preparetobesafe. ca to get more information. To learn more about the KI distribution program in Dur- ham Region call 1-888-777-9613. For more information, residents can also contact Telehealth Ontario at 1-866-797-0000. What you need to know Are you within 10 kilometres? • The Pickering Nuclear Generating Sta- tion is bounded generally by Lynde Creek to the east, the 5th Concession to the north, and the Durham-Toronto boundary to the west. • For the Darlington Nuclear Generat- ing Station is bounded generally by Taunton Road to the north, Wilmot Creek to the east and Park Road (RR 54) to the west. What do you do during a nuclear emergency? 1. Go inside and turn on your radio or television for instructions. 2. Listen to the media reports. 3. Follow instructions provided by gov- ernment officials. 4. Follow instructions for: evacuation, sheltering in place, taking KI pills, reporting to a reception centre for monitoring. DURHAM -- Homes and businesses near Pickering and Darlington nuclear stations will soon receive a supply of KI pills in the mail as part of increased safety precautions in case of a nuclear emergency.

Zero tolerance for speeders in Durham school zones Back-to-school traffic blitz targets community safety zones DURHAM -- Drivers will be getting a reminder to slow down in school zones as kids head back to class. The Durham Regional Police will be initiating a zero-tolerance enforcement campaign targeting school and commu- nity safety zones during the first week of school, from Sept. 8 to Sept. 11. Police are reminding drivers to slow down and put their electronic devices away while driving, and to be aware of increased pedestrian activity around schools with classes back in session. Last year’s back-to-school campaign resulted in more than 1,200 provincial offence notices issued to drivers for infrac- tions, including 787 tickets for speed- ing, with one driver found travelling 110 km/h in a 50 km/h zone in Oshawa. There were also 76 notices for distracted driving offences. 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 9 , 2 0 1 5 5 AP Do you want to save $$$ renovating or reDecorating?

Durham calls off extreme heat alert DURHAM -- An extreme heat warning for Durham Region has been terminated. The extreme heat alert was declared on Monday, Sept. 7 by Durham Region’s health department as temperatures soared. With the humidex, the temperature felt like it was in the high 30s C. The alert was called off in the early afternoon of Sept. 8. During an extreme heat warning, peo- ple are encouraged to take action to pre- vent heat-related illnesses, such as drinking plenty of water, wearing loose-fitting cloth- ing, avoiding sun exposure and planning events for cooler times. For more information or additional tips on how to stay safe and what to do during extreme heat, visit durham.ca/heat.

Excuse me? I haven’t seen door-to-door mail delivery for my 25 years in Pickering. Why should I pay for some neighbour- hoods to still get such personal service when I’ve never seen it? To be fair, if folks feel so strongly about keeping their cur- rent, privileged service then they should have to pay more (than me) for it. Voting in a new (left-leaning) government to get their way will only force me to continue to pay for their entitlement. I guess that some neighbourhoods feel they are creat- ed more equal than others. By the way, community mailboxes are nothing new. All of my childhood years in Peterborough we had to pick up our mail at a rural route box at the end of the street, even though we were well within city lim- its. I am 54 now, so that was decades ago. Paul Johnston Pickering All in the family Do you ever meet people and just have some unex- plainable feeling of being drawn to them? I met a couple this year who demonstrate such strength, goodwill, generosity and kindness that you get the feeling that you just want to be around them, drawing on their positivity. I first met this family several years ago and will never forget the scene. I recall entering a home on an emergency medical call only to find that a previously healthy, vibrant woman was clearly suffering from an acute illness of high mortality. I remember a sense of urgency, feeling somewhat helpless because there was truly nothing I could do except get this person to the hospital. The husband of the patient was in a state of disbelief, talking about how everything had been fine moments before, and I truly got the sense of the amount of love in that home. I had no words of assurance to offer him, because I didn’t feel all that confident that everything would be OK. My partner and I worked as quickly as we could and our patient made it to the ER alive. I’m sure this was just the start of a long and difficult process to say the least. After several years I returned to the same home to find the same couple living there. I learned that their lives had been forever changed, that despite a poor prognosis, and against all odds, the doctors had been able to treat the sickness and the lady was able to regain a quality of life that allowed her to live at home with her husband. While there is some home care available and being used, for the most part, they work together to manage life at home. He feeds her, bathes her, makes sure she gets outside for air, helps to maintain her comfort, and more. She appears grateful, calm and tolerant of the challenges she’s been presented with. I listened to them speak of their large and close-knit family. Watching them together is a demonstration in caring, gentleness and patience. I can’t imagine life is easy for this family. I think they are amazing and completely inspiring, because it just doesn’t seem like most people would be able to withstand such challenges. I wish my kids could know people like this as their role models, and I wish mod- ern social media would focus more on these amazing stories. I wish I knew them better, enough to really learn how on earth they do it. I see their persistence in love and commitment as a living demonstration of how to beat the odds and have a fulfilling life. -- Angie Morrison is a paramedic in neighbouring Northumberland Angie Morrison Guest column Emergencies Modified school brings benefits in Durham Grade 7 to 12 schools are an excellent solution to declining enrolment in some Durham facilities and offer more learning opportunities. Thousands of Durham students returned to class on Tuesday, and many were burst- ing with excitement. But some Grade 7 and 8 students are extra pumped as they are get- ting used to high school, namely Oshawa’s Monsignor John Pereyma CSS. It’s a new Grade 7 to 12 model at the Oshawa second- ary school, approved by board trustees last fall due to declining enrolment at Pereyma. Pereyma had 509 students in the last school year and board staff estimate the number will drop to 380 by 2017. So the solution was to transfer more than 150 students who attended John XXIII, Msgr. Philip Coffey, St. Hedwig and St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic elementary schools to Pereyma. Parents initially raised the alarm about the lack of consultation before the move. But they were most worried about having kids as young as 11 mixing with students as old as 18. And while some of the younger students we spoke with are a bit nervous about the new arrangement, several were thrilled at the prospect of having a locker. And there’s many more advantages to being in a high school, Pereyma principal Christopher Cuddy points out, such as access to science labs, a music room and more sports teams. In short, more resources than if they were at an elementary school. Cuddy acknowl- edged parents of the younger students were jittery about having the grade and high school students interact. However they now seem to be on board, partly assuaged by having a separate upstairs wing of class- rooms for the Grade 7s and 8s, who will also have their own school entrance and dis- missal times. It’s the first such model for an English- language school in Durham -- but may not be the last. The Durham Catholic board is applying to the Province to set up a Grade 7 to 12 school in Brooklin. And parents are wondering if it’s a model that could work for Oshawa Central Collegiate, which could close because it doesn’t have a full comple- ment of students. High schools offer grade-school age stu- dents not only much more in terms of resources, but also opportunities for the older students to work with their younger peers, in reading programs and the like. It could be a no-brainer for high school stu- dents trying to complete their required community service hours. This model should be copied in areas of Durham where low enrolment may result in high school closures. Blissful ignorance and climate change I think it was either Voltaire or Alice from The Brady Bunch who said, “With great knowledge comes great responsibility.” The opposite of this, of course, is, “Igno- rance is bliss”, a quote attributed to Thom- as Gray but made popular, I think, by the career of most oil executives. I love to read. I think it very important to feed one’s head on a regular basis and to stay informed about important things. The problem with this, unfortunately, is that the more one knows about something ... say, oh, I don’t know ... climate change, for instance, the more the status quo becomes not just uncomfortable but intolerable. And there’s no going back. I think I now know how Adam and Eve felt after chow- ing down on that apple. Once that genie of ocean acidification, ice sheet melting and toxically high atmospheric carbon dioxide levels is out of the bottle, there’s no getting it back in. When I discovered how dire the global situation really is, it was, in an eerie way, reminiscent of the feeling I had when I got my cancer diagnosis. The difference is, even during the most frightening moments of my cancer journey, I always felt like I would get better, that I would be able to heal myself. I’m not certain how to heal the planet, or even if it can be healed. That’s how far things seem to have gone. The other dissimilarity is that when I was sick, I was surrounded by people who understood the gravity of the situation and who were doing everything in their power to make things better. That’s unfortunate- ly not the case with global warming. The earth is in a very bad way and it seems like most people either don’t believe it or don’t care. This is beyond tragic. If I had been on the end of that kind of indifference when I was trying to recover, you probably wouldn’t be reading this right now. The sad thing is that even as I type these words I can envision the skeptics’ heads shaking. All I can say to those people is ‘read’. Read widely and deeply. Read with an open mind. Read the science from the heavy hit- ters: NASA, the World Health Organiza- tion, Scientific American, Bill Nye the Sci- ence Guy for crying out loud. Do that and you will, of a certainty, find yourself in the unenviable position that I now find myself: possessed of a sobering knowledge and a daunting responsibility that I can no lon- ger dodge. Mostly because it’s my children and my grandchildren who will be taking this one squarely in the teeth. Environ- mental catastrophe was not ever part of the legacy I wanted to leave my progeny. And so, here I am, trying to reconcile a belief in the inherent goodness of the human race and the power of positive thought with a government that seems only interested in pumping more crud out of the ground and into the atmosphere and sleepwalkers driving Humvees and blithe- ly firing up carbon-belching leaf-blowers without a care in the world. Some days it’s very hard to stay positive. Ignorance is indeed bliss. I think it was either Hemingway or Bar- ney Rubble who said, “Happiness is the rarest emotion among intelligent people.” I don’t know that it’s rare, but it is some- times very hard to find when you’re up to your clavicle in blissful ignorance. -- Durham resident Neil Crone, actor, comic, writer, saves some of his best lines for this column. du r h a m r e g i o n . c o m 7 APAn Ajax woman says a text exchange with a mattress company employee was suggestive and made her uncomfortable.

Adult children (non-students, 18 years and older) who continue to rely financially on their parents are putting a drain on the nest eggs of two-thirds (66 per cent) of parents who are feeling the impact of these extra costs, finds the latest poll by CIBC. The poll found that about one in four par- ents are spending more than $500 a month to help their adult children cover expenses such as rent, groceries and cell phone bills and some parents say paying these bills is cutting into their personal savings and causing them to delay retirement, as well as their ability to travel and spend money on themselves. The most common form of financial sup- port that parents provide their adult kids is free room and board at home (71 per cent) but many contribute towards other bills as well, including: • 47 per cent - groceries/other household expenses • 35 per cent - cell phone bills • 23 per cent - car payments or vehicle related expenses • 17 per cent - rent for their adult kids to live elsewhere •12 per cent - debt repayments. “These extra costs can be a burden that delays or prevents parents from meeting financial goals such as retirement, and that’s why both parents and kids need to be mindful of their budgets,” said Christina Kramer, Executive Vice President of Retail and Business Banking at CIBC.

Allyson Eamer, assistant professor in the University of Ontario Institute of Technol- ogy’s faculty of education, said there is a great deal of research that supports the benefits of cursive writing, which engages both hemispheres of the brain. “So it’s a much more complex cognitive process than just knowing where the letter key is on the keyboard,” she said. Ms. Eamer referred to a study on uni- versity students taking notes compared to keying them in on a laptop. “The students taking notes by hand seem to process the notes more deeply,” said Ms. Eamer. Taking notes on laptop is more superfi- cial, she finds. “Also there’s research that seems to indi- cate that kids with learning disabilities and kids with ADHD (attention deficit hyper- active disorder), cursive writing provides some advantages because you’re closer to the paper, the pencil never leaves surface, you’re kind of forced to be more focused,” she said. Personally, Ms. Eamer, 52, prefers to put pen to paper. “I just find the ease of a journal, some- thing I can fit in my purse, just makes a whole lot more sense than to carry devices, recharge them, and I really hate compos- ing on a tiny keyboard, being autocorrect- ed, word prediction features,” she said. She finds whenever she looks through her old journals she kept up on her travels, she’s compelled by how well written her experiences are without the advantage of “delete and shift and copy and paste and moving text around.” That seems to fit with reading she’s done that indicates people tend to put more thought into composing when using cur- sive writing. “We seem to invest more in what we’re writing,” she said. Mother Teresa Catholic School principal Mariah O’Reilly explained cursive writing appears in the curriculum in Grades 3 to 8 as an option for students to present their work. “What’s changed with technology is there are different options that appeal to different learning styles and abilities,” she said. It’s changed from the days Ms. O’Reilly was in school. “People do need to know how to cursive write and there are times they’re asked to cursive write but that’s not all they’re asked to do all the time,” she said. She said this reflects the ways of the world, and the jobs that students will get in the future. “I guess our notion of writing has expand- ed to include a lot of different forms and to really be conscious of the purpose and the audience,” she said. While the ministry is responsible for devel- oping curriculum policy, implementation is the responsibility of school boards. “Teachers plan units of study, develop a variety of teaching approaches, and select appropriate resources to address the curric- ulum expectations, taking into account the needs and abilities of the students in their classes,” Mr. Wheeler said. Ms. O’Reilly explained teachers choose the best ways for each student to publish their work. “We’ve had some kids get so frustrat- ed with the writing, they’re not wanting to write, but when we switch them to the computer, it’s less frustrating,” she said. But another student may relish hand- writing and use it for presenting a poem, for example. “I would say it’s about keeping a bal- ance,” she said. “I think it’s positively affected (students) in that it recognizes people have different strengths in different areas.” Ms. Eamer feels the skill should still be taught formally, but in a less obsessive way. “There’s a movement to simplify cursive script and remove decorative curlicues and flowery elements of letters, but still allow for the pen to not leave the page,” she said. She said being able to read cursive is also becoming a lost art. In social sciences and literature, she said anyone wishing to do primary research needs to be know how to read cursive writ- ing. Aside from that, anyone who wants to learn more about their past would benefit from being able to decipher cursive. “Being able to read enables us to remain connected to our own personal histories,” she said. She was reminded of this when she recently stumbled on items from family members at her mother’s place. “I would not be able to read what my great-grandmother wrote to my great- grandfather if I couldn’t read cursive writ- ing,” she said. “It would have been looking at someone else’s writing, looking at some- one else’s alphabet.” Lack of ability to read handwriting can disconnect people from their past: professor LACK from page 1 HOW THIS IMPACTS YOU • Changes to the use of cursive in the Ontario curriculum were made in 2006 • In 2009, students in schools across Canada shared computers at a ratio of 1.4 15-year-old students for each com- puter, according to Statistics Canada • Many colleges and universities now require students to purchase a laptop for their program Download practice cursive writing sheets at A a A a A a A a A a apple Adam 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 9 , 2 0 1 5 11 AP Our residence features...

Until Sept. 18, the library will be accepting clean, gently used Halloween costumes for the exchange, which is tak- ing place for the second year after a successful event in 2014. Sarah West, children’s services librarian, explained she and another staff member decided to try it out last year. “We’ve heard of libraries in the States doing it and we thought it would be beneficial for our community,” she said. Eighteen people took part in it. “Parents loved the fact that they didn’t have to go out and buy a new costume,” said Ms. West. This year, she’s hoping for 25 people to participate, but there is no cutoff. Last year, when there were gaps in sizes of the costumes available, staff purchased some from Value Village, so costumes were available for all ages. Up until Sept. 18, when someone drops off a costume at any library branch, they’ll receive a ticket that will allow them to come back to the exchange event scheduled from Sept. 19 and select a new costume. Staff will note the number of costumes a person is eligi- ble for. For example, if a person drops off three costumes, their ticket will indicate they can receive three costumes at the exchange. If the costume has props to go with it, they’ll need to be placed in a large plastic bag, labelled and attached to the costume. The library will also take costume props and accessories without costumes. The exchange will take place on Saturday, Sept. 19 from 1 to 3 p.m. in the auditorium at the Central branch, locat- ed at One The Esplanade, Pickering. Those who didn’t drop off costumes can come between 2 and 3 p.m. with a donation to the food bank in order to get a costume. Leftover costumes last year were donated to the Salva- tion Army Thrift Store in Pickering. The event is free and open to people of all ages. Visit www.picnet.org for more information.‘‘Parents loved the fact that they didn’t have to go out and buy a new costume.’ Sarah West, Pickering Public Library PICKERING -- The Pickering Public Library will be accepting clean, gently used Halloween costumes in an effort to help families defray the cost of costumes again this year.

Man threatened with knife, brass knuckles after coming to woman’s defence in Durham Teen charged after altercation at outdoor patio DURHAM -- A man was threatened with a knife after intervening in a domestic dis- pute in Bowmanville on Labour Day. An Oshawa teen has been charged in connection with the incident, near the intersection of Hwy. 2 and Clarington Bou- levard, at about 5:30 p.m. Sept. 7, Durham police said. Cops said a Guelph man, 25, was dining on an outdoor patio in the vicinity when he saw a male and female at a bus stop across the street, engaged in a heated argument. Fearing the male might physical- ly assault the woman, the man shouted at him, police said. The sus- pect respond- ed by running into the patio area and confront- ing the man with a knife and brass knuckles, police said. Acting in self-defence, the man swung a small table at the suspect and knocked him to the ground, police said. The woman arrived on scene and pulled the suspect away. Police arrested a suspect and seized a knife and brass knuckles. A 17-year-old Oshawa male faces weap- ons and threatening charges, as well as breach of probation. His identity is protected under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. 780 Kingston Rd. (Crabby Joe’s Plaza – East of White’s Rd.)

The rookie head coach will take his hock- ey club into its Ontario Junior Hockey League season and home opener on Fri- day, Sept. 11 when the Panthers host the Newmarket Hurricanes at the Pickering Recreation Complex at 7:30 p.m. With the roster now set after six pre-sea- son games, Carroll is taking on full respon- sibility for moulding the team into a com- petitive product. “We’ve got a lot of good tools. All the pieces are there. It’s my job now to bring it all together,” he said. Originally, the Panthers were sched- uled to open the OJHL season Labour Day weekend in Lindsay, but because both teams had a number of players away at OHL training camps last week, the game was rescheduled. When the Panthers do hit the ice for real against Newmarket, fans can expect to see a team blessed with speed and skill, two elements that have helped build the foundation for previous teams Carroll has coached. “I’ve always had speed and skill. To me, they are the killers in the game,” he said. “We’ll look at those high-end skill guys and especially if they have the speed, it’s a good model for us. “Speed kills. I always say as long as we are working hard and get to pucks, our speed will be there and then let your skill take over. That’s one of the things that we’ve always focused on is just letting our skill take over games once we start wearing teams down.” The Panthers mustered just one win in six outings during the pre-season, but there were a number of encouraging signs. Four of the team’s five loses were by just one goal, with two of those setbacks com- ing in overtime. The lone win, a 4-2 deci- sion over Lindsay in the final game, provid- ed some optimism moving forward. Leading the way offensively was veteran Marco Azzano, acquired in a summer deal from the Wellington Dukes, who had three goals and three assists in five games. Ajax/ Pickering Raiders grad Owen Scuralli was next with three goals and two assists in four games. In goal, both rookie netmind- ers, Mathew Worokiuk from the Don Mills minor midgets, and Paul Giusti from the Raiders, saw plenty of action. The roster will be composed mainly of rookies this season on the ice with as many as nine graduating players from the midget ranks making the team. The GM, Andrew Moore, is in his first season in that capac- ity, and the coaching staff, including Car- roll and assistants Chuck MacLennan and Jamie Kennedy, moved up together from the Raiders midget team that won silver at the OMHA championships a season ago. Some growing pains are expected. “We are going to make mistakes. We are a rookie coaching staff as well. We are going to make mistakes too,” acknowledged Car- roll. “Everyone is going to have to learn and grow from them together. There’s going to be a bit of a transition period here. “The guys that we have brought in, the rookies, are what I call ‘A’ prospects. Yeah, they are going to make mistakes, but they are going to learn from them and hopefully only make them once.” To help ease into the season, the Pan- thers have a favourable start, with the first four games on home ice. It will help the young team, and staff, establish a routine early on in surroundings they are familiar with. “I think it can only help us,” agreed Car- roll. “Your home rink is your home rink for a reason. It should provide a little bit of an advantage for you. You practise there and you are comfortable in those surround- ings. You still have to show up and play, but being comfortable always helps.” On Sunday, Sept. 13, the Panthers will host the Lindsay Muskies at 6:30 p.m. PICKERING -- Pickering Panthers’ Tiger McDonald (12) will be just one of the many rookies the Ontario Junior Hockey League club will feature when it opens the season on home ice Friday. Benjamin Priebe / Metroland Gens don’t miss a beat with wins Brian McNair bmcnair@durhamregion.com OSHAWA — Although the results through the first two exhibition games hint the Oshawa Generals have picked up right where they left off, the reality is there’s a whole different feeling from a year ago for the Ontario Hockey League club. The Generals’ brass are aware a Memo- rial Cup repeat is not likely in the cards, but they have liked what they’ve seen from the new crop of hopefuls so far, including wins of 4-2 in Windsor and 2-1 in Peterborough to kick off the pre-season. The Generals come into the season as defending OHL and Memorial Cup champi- ons, but have a new coach, with Bob Jones replacing D.J. Smith, and a roster that will be far younger than a year ago. “Obviously coming off a Memorial Cup and having 12 95-born players in the lineup, it’s hard to replace 9 or 10 guys in one sea- son,” said Jones, while watching from the stands during a team scrimmage on Friday, Sept. 4. “It is going to be a bit of a youth movement, but one thing is set in stone here … the foundation of the blue-collar work ethic of this team will stay intact regardless of your age. We’ll be a difficult team to play against.” The scrimmage, which saw Memorial Cup hero Anthony Cirelli score three times in a 9-5 win for Red over White, featured plenty of skill and nice plays, but also a fair share of mistakes. “We’re young and with youth comes inconsistency at times,” said general man- ager Roger Hunt. “You’ll see one player play really good in a game or a period and then that falls off, but that’s to be expected and we know that coming into it.” Cirelli, whose Cinderella story a year ago saw him sign as a free agent, unexpect- edly make the team and ultimately score the only two goals in a 2-1 overtime win over Kelowna in the Memorial Cup final, seems on the verge of a huge season. Drafted by the Tampa Bay Lightning in the third round, the 18-year-old scored the winning goal over the Petes on Monday, Sept. 7. Among other key players expected back from last year’s team are fellow 2015 NHL draft picks Mitchell Vande Sompel and Ste- phen Desrocher on defence, goalie Jeremy Brodeur and forwards Sam Harding, Kenny Huether and Joe Manchurek. Michael Dal Colle, the fifth overall pick of the New York Islanders in 2014, is also likely to return and lead the team offensively, while goalie Ken Appleby and forwards Matt Mistele and Hunter Smith could drastically alter the outlook of the team if they return for an overage season. Everyone loves to enjoy their favourite meal at a restaurant: foodies, moms who need a break from making supper, or those who simply love to eat. It’s always a treat to taste delicious, mouth- watering dishes that we didn’t have to labour over ourselves. And the experience escalates to new heights when it involves foods we don’t know how to cook or that we’ve never tasted before. So, close your eyes and imagine treating yourself to an evening out, someplace where the food is great, the chef inspired, the staff attentive, and the décor and atmosphere warm and welcoming. You look at the menu and delight in reading about the many delicious-sounding entrées. Finally, you order the dish you love, a sure bet that is already ma king your mouth water. But wait! Stop and think a moment! Why follow the same old routine? Now is the time to discover a new fla vour or a new dish on the menu! New flavours There’s nothing more uplifting than tasting new foods. Try chicory, radicchio, or kale if you’re a salad lover; they’re really tasty. If you crave grilled meat, try venison, Cornish hen, or duck. If you relish rice and risotto, try quinoa for a change. If you’re a potato fan, try some other root vegetables, such as celeriac, parsnip, or Jerusalem artichoke. New places Search for restaurants where chefs work hard to offer an up-to-date menu filled with fresh foods. Look around, survey your friends, and search the Web; you’re sure to find res taurants that serve deli- cious fusion foods inspi red by the culi- nary traditions of France, Italy, Greece, Spain, Thailand, Japan, Mo rocco, and the list goes on. There are also many wonderful chefs who offer gluten free dishes, ve getarian meals, locavore cuisine, or other special- ties. There is no escaping it: there are so many deli- cious foods yet to discover! 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 9 , 2 0 1 5 23 AP Roofing • Windows • Renovation Built On Integrity mclellancontracting.ca (905) 767-1240 GAF Training Excellence Award Business Excellence Award Winner Room to SpaRe? 905-279-4500 www.keyassets.ca As a foster parent you can help create memories that will last a lifetime.
