The hospital is currently part of the Rouge Valley Health System, but that relationship will be dis- solved on Dec. 1. Ron Pietroniro / Metroland THE PROS AND CONS OF HOSPITAL MERGER Ajax doctors oppose ‘takeover’ and plan to attend Nov. 5 protest; Lakeridge leadership says not much will change BY KRISTEN CALIS kcalis@durhamregion.com DURHAM -- Lakeridge Health is set to take ownership of the Ajax-Pickering hospital on Dec. 1, but local residents and doctors hope it won’t happen, for fear the community will lose its hospital. They’re afraid it will weaken health care in west Dur- ham, whereas a Lakeridge representative says the change is good news, not bad. Minister of Health and Long-term Care Eric Hoskins has ordered the break-up of the Rouge Valley Health System and amalgamation of the Centenary Campus with The Scarborough Hospital, creating a new health corporation in Scarborough. Hoskins also ordered the Ajax-Pickering hospital to move under the jurisdiction of Lakeridge. This is despite an expert panel’s recommendation that Ajax-Pickering hospital and Lakeridge merge to create a new hospital corporation in Durham Region. Hoskins appointed the expert panel in April 2015 to get advice on the hospitals. Ajax-Pickering joining Lakeridge is expected to cost $19 million and the Scarborough merge is expected to cost $26 million, with a return on investment expected to take more than 60 years. The News Advertiser spoke to representatives from both hospitals.

The zoo’s reproductive physiology unit helps animals make babies Fannie Sunshine newsroom@durhamregion.com Editor’s Note: This is part of a Metroland special report exploring the fascinating world of Dr. Gabriela Mastromonaco, curator of the Toronto Zoo’s reproductive programs and research. To read the whole report, visit www.durhamregion.com SCARBOROUGH — For two years, the female patient suffered from irregular menstrual cycles. Doctors were about to explore assisted fer- tility options when she became pregnant on her own. In another case, fertility special- ists were stumped as to why another female patient could not conceive -- until a recording of rain shower sounds was enough to get her in the mood and get the job done naturally. Those treated by Dr. Gabriela Mastromona- co aren’t your typical patients seeking repro- ductive assistance. They are housed in Scarborough’s Toronto Zoo, specifically selected for artificial insem- ination in hopes of producing offspring to keep the numbers of their species up and, if possible, releasing these animals back into their natural habitats. According to the Toronto Zoo, it’s the only Canadian zoo with a reproductive physi- ologist on staff. Located within the Animal Health Centre, the reproductive physiology unit is made up of two laboratories, the endo- crinology lab and gamete biology lab, where staff, students and visiting scientists work together to investigate fundamental prob- lems related to reproduction in non-domes- tic species. The goal is to assist with the care and management of captive and free-ranging populations in an effort to maintain repro- ductive health and ensure the preservation of genetic diversity. Mastromonaco, curator of the Meadowvale Road and Old Finch Avenue zoo’s reproduc- tive programs and research, said it’s always preferred for animals to breed on their own, but for a number of reasons -- some known, some not -- that might be easier said than done. There could be behavioural or medical issues at play, or lack of a male paramour, in which case semen would have to be flown in. Very much similar to fertility testing humans go through, animal hormones are tested in a lab to look for abnormalities, cycles are mon- itored, and semen is collected to freeze for insemination, Mastromonaco said, adding she works with more than 50 species a year. And like humans, animals can go on birth control pills -- the same women would use -- if the zoo isn’t trying to breed a particular spe- cies, she said, adding the gorillas are currently on contraception. The Toronto Zoo’s reproductive program, which began in 1988 (prior to this all breed- ing was done naturally), lends its support to other zoos, primarily within Canada, Mastro- monaco said. And though she’s been at the program’s helm for a decade, she still has a lot to learn about the reproductive health of the animals treated. The zoo’s animals typically try to conceive on their own for two to three years before Mastromonaco and her team step in and then evaluate “why babies aren’t coming,” she said. Sometimes the issue isn’t physical. Sometimes it’s as simple as creating the right atmosphere -- hence the rain shower music. But as easy as that may sound, pinpointing fertility treatment and what works and what doesn’t is still something Mastromonaco is figuring out. An Indian rhino calf lost a preg- nancy because she didn’t have enough pro- gesterone to sustain it. Cheetahs have under- gone treatment for five or six years without producing offspring. The International Union for Conserva- tion of Nature, an international organization focused in the field of nature conservation and sustainable use of natural resources, has listed the Indian rhinoceros, polar bear, chee- tah, and giant panda -- some of Toronto Zoo’s biggest draws -- as vulnerable. Come next year, the reproductive pro- gram, currently housed in two rooms inside a 40-year-old building, will move into a state- of-the-art facility, which will allow Mastro- monaco and her staff more research equip- ment and space to house and transfer ani- mals more easily, she said, adding the old site will be used as a curatorial lab. Bison insemination is the next “big project” for Mastromonaco, adding the zoo has kept 35-year-old bison sperm frozen in the lab. “As long as the samples are frozen, we can bring them back,” she said. “We can breed across time and space.” The cost of artificially inseminating an ani- mal is $500 to $600 a try, with in-vitro fertiliza- tion running $3,000 to $4,000 a pop. But, with certain species dangerously close to extinction, such as the Grevy’s zebra, “you can’t put a price” on reproduction, she said.

Two men entered the Esso gas station kiosk at Kingston Road and Harwood Avenue on Oct. 30 at about 11:50 p.m., and one of the men pointed a gun at the lone employee, demanding and receiving cash, police report. The second suspect walked behind the counter and stole a quantity of ciga- rettes. Both fled on foot westbound. Durham Regional Police, includ- ing a K-9 Unit, searched the area without success. The employee wasn’t physically hurt. The first suspect is described as a black man, 20 to 25 years, about five feet 10 inches, with a medium build and wearing a black hoodie, dark sunglasses and grey jeans. The second suspect is described as a man of East Indian descent, 20 to 25 years old, wearing a grey hoodie, black track pants with white stripes and dark sunglasses.

A preliminary report compiled by Inspector Sean Fitzgerald indicates an initial roll-out of 60 cameras could cost $750,000 over one year. It’s anticipated that should the Durham service adopt the cameras, they’ll be deployed incre- mentally, said spokesman Dave Selby. Durham employs more than 800 uni- form officers. “It comes down to finances,” said Selby. Expenses associated with the technology would include hardware costs and time required by officers to process data, he said. “It’s more than just purchasing the cameras and paying for the (data) stor- age,” Selby said. “You also have the offi- cers’ time off the road to be able to do this.” Body worn cameras have been cited as a potential means of providing objective evidence in disputes over transactions between police and the public. There’s a perception that body-worn cameras would enhance police accountability. “We have no objections at all to running this pilot project and we understand why a lot of people in the community support it,” Selby said. Inspector Fitzgerald is reviewing pilot projects and analyses conducted by other services, including those in Toron- to and Calgary, as he prepares a report for the Durham police board. It’s expected Insp. Fitzgerald will pres- ent an update to the police services board Nov. 14. Pickering |1095KingstonRd |905.420.6001 Nopayment,nointerestfor6monthsOAC.*Seestorefordetails.

EFW-WMAC Meeting #22 DURHAM -- Tasers were used twice over the weekend to resolve inci- dents. The first incident happened at about 12:30 a.m. on Sunday, Oct. 30 when Durham Regional Police offi- cers responded to an unknown trou- ble call in an Oshawa parking lot. Officers found a man bleeding from his arm and holding a knife, police report. He refused to drop the knife, so an officer pointed a Taser at the man, but didn’t use it. The man dropped the knife and was taken into custody under the Mental Health Act. The second incident also hap- pened on Oct. 30, when officers responded to a domestic-related call at about 7:50 p.m. A man was in the hallway of an apartment building, holding two knives. He refused to drop them for police. Eventually, he dropped the knives, but advanced on the officers. The Taser was used and the man was taken into custody. A 34-year-old Oshawa man faces several charges, including forcible confinement, dangerous weap- ons and assault with a weapon. His name is being withheld to protect the identity of the victim.

I am probably suffering from “informa- tion overload.” Maybe you are too. In 2016, 6,000 feature films were made and 400 new TV series were broadcast on prime time. In one day, a single major new firm publishes anywhere between 200 and 500 stories. In just over half of one day -- Friday Oct. 28, 2016 for example -- there were more than 1 billion websites, 133 bil- lion e-mails sent, almost 3 billion Google searches, 2.6 billion blog posts, 275 mil- lion Tweets, 37.9 million Instagram pho- tos uploaded, 59.4 Tumblr posts and 117 million Skype calls. Each minute, 32 mil- lion Facebook messages are sent and more than 500 hours of video get uploaded to YouTube. Back in 1970, Alvin Toffler, a consultant and futurist, coined the term “informa- tion overload” in his book, Future Shock. Toffler said humans were having trouble absorbing and processing all the informa- tion flowing around them each day. Infor- mation overload made it tough for people to make decisions and stressed them out. Toffler died on June 17, 2016, but he was not the first or the last thinker to contem- plate information overload. Comparable worries have surrounded each and every new innovation in the his- tory of communication technology. The print revolution that spread across Europe following Johannes Gutenberg’s invention of the printing press in 1450 was met with concerns that too many books were being published, and too many bad books were being read. The philosopher Immanuel Kant, for example, complained that the abundance of books encouraged people to “read a lot,” and read “superficially.” Yet, our age of information overload is different than the 18th century one that Kant lived through. I just Google searched for “information overload,” and the algo- rithm returned 4,730,000 results in 0.56 seconds. That’s more information about one idea than Kant was exposed to in his entire lifetime. I feel overwhelmed, not enlightened. Today, there is more information being produced and consumed than ever before in human history. Perhaps there is too much information. The Internet and world wide web invite us to inform ourselves, but also remind us of the impossibility of ever becoming fully informed. As we pursue knowledge in the digital age, we quickly learn how much there is to know, and how little we actually know. Our society is glutted with information and we are trying to figure out how to deal with it and what to do with it. Our ability to cope with information overload requires new means for dealing with it. That’s the message of the big data industry at least. A lot of new high-tech firms are design- ing and selling software for storing, orga- nizing, analyzing, curating, and visualizing data. The big data market is worth about $28 billion and its growing. Paradoxically, the big data industry’s attempt to innovate and sell technologi- cal solutions to the problem of information overload may, in the long run, just exacer- bate it. After all, Big data produces more data. — Tanner Mirrlees is an assistant professor in the communication and digital media studies program, faculty of social science and humanities, at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology. our opinion Metroland series delves into the zoo’s reproductive programs and research Everyone loves baby animals. Visitors have flocked to see the brand new additions to the Toronto Zoo, which include Juno the polar bear cub, Rey the zebra filly, and arguably the most popu- lar, the panda bear cubs Jia Panpan and Jia Yueyue who recently celebrated their first birthday. While seeing the cute baby animals are worth the price of admission, what’s equally impressive is the work that goes behind the scenes to bring these ani- mals to life – literally. The special six-part report on dur- hamregion.com explores the fascinat- ing world of Dr. Gabriela Mastromona- co, curator of the Toronto Zoo’s repro- ductive programs and research. She along with her team and visiting scientists work together to investigate problems related to reproduction in non-domestic species. It’s always preferred for animals to breed on their own, notes Mastromona- co, but sometimes there are behavioural or medical issues at play. Other times, it’s a lack of a suitable partner that prevents mating to occur, in which case semen that is collected to freeze for insemination might have to be flown in. The problem could also lie in not cre- ating the right environment or mood for animals to procreate. Mastromonaco, who works with more than 50 species a year, admits trying to figure out exactly which fertility treat- ments work and which ones don’t is still an ongoing challenge. But whatever the issue a particular species might have, the Toronto Zoo’s goal is to assist with the care and man- agement of both captive and free-rang- ing populations in an effort to main- tain reproductive health and ensure the preservation of genetic diversity. In other words, the zoo hopes to pro- duce offspring to keep the numbers of endangered and vulnerable species up. That includes the polar bear, the Indian rhinoceros, cheetah and giant panda, to name a few, as listed by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, an international organization focused in the field of nature conserva- tion. Those animals also happen to be some of Toronto Zoo’s biggest draws. On your next visit to the Toronto Zoo while taking a photo of the adorable baby animals, remember the work that goes behind maintaining the rich diver- sity of the animal kingdom.

AJAX — Doctors at the Ajax-Pickering Hospital, including Dr. Arul Thangaroopan – psychiatry, Dr. Fathi Abuzgaya – orthopedics and Dr. Romas Stas – associate chief of staff, fear what will become of the site when it joins Lakeridge Health. Ron Pietroniro / Metroland AJAX -- The Ajax-Pickering hospital is not simply merging with Lakeridge but it’s the victim of a takeover by the Oshawa-based corporation, say Ajax physicians. “What we’re doing in essence is transfer- ring all the assets that Ajax-Pickering owns -- the land, the building, the MRI,” said Dr. Romas Stas, associate chief of staff and med- ical director of complex continuing care, The MRI and other costly equipment was purchased by funds raised in the communi- ty. “And now all of this is going to be trans- ferred to Lakeridge,” said Dr. Stas. “It’s terri- ble. They can move services wherever they want to. We’re not saying they will, but they can.” Anesthesia physician Dr. Corina Constan- tinescu spoke on behalf of her department. “We will lose our autonomy,” she said. “We feel we are not equal partners now in the discussions, in the decisions.” The doctors criticized the minister’s deci- sion to ignore the panel’s recommendation to create a new health corporation in Dur- ham, which it supported. Hoskins has not said why he chose to simply roll Ajax-Picker- ing into Lakeridge. In a January 2016 e-mail sent to the minis- ter from former Lakeridge board chairwom- an Donna Kingelin, she expressed concerns that creating a new Durham board structure, hiring new leadership and reorganizing a new legal entity would be “costly, distract- ing, and time-consuming.” She instead pro- posed an “expedited integration” to bring Ajax into Lakeridge. The ministry did not respond to requests for comment. Hospital supporters maintain Ajax-Picker- ing, which serves residents in west Whitby, Pickering and Ajax, already lost services to Centenary when Ajax-Pickering merged with that campus in 1998 and formed Rouge Valley. To psychiatrist Dr. Arul Thangaroopan, this situation is reminiscent of the cuts to mental health services at the Ajax-Pickering hospital after that merger took place. Nine- teen mental health in-patient beds were moved to Centenary, closing the inpatient unit in Ajax, which was new at the time. “Any patient we see in emergency, if they need inpatient admission, they are trans- ferred from here,” he said. Since many don’t want to stay at Centena- ry, they opt to see their family doctor or visit outpatient services at Ajax-Pickering, but there’s a wait. “We are inundated with outpatients,” said Dr. Thangaroopan, citing waiting lists of six months. “I’m ashamed to say that.” Orthopedic surgeon Dr. Fathi Abuzgaya said this is even more dire than the Ajax- Pickering and Centenary merge, since Ajax is being “taken over” by the existing Lak- eridge, rather than being an equal partner in a new corporation. “The community needs to know if they didn’t get involved, they will lose services,” he said. He said it’s not simply a fear. “This is what happens every time there is a significant merger,” he said. “Services will be moved. We lived it. Other hospitals have lived it. It’s going to happen to Ajax again if they merge this way.” He added obstetrics almost closed in Ajax- Pickering in 2008. “The community stopped that,” he said. A protest is scheduled for noon on Satur- day, Nov. 5 in the main driveway of the Ajax- Pickering hospital, 580 Harwood Ave. S., Ajax. Dr. Thangaroopan said attending the pro- test, writing to MPPs before the public con- sultation deadline of Nov. 15 or even coun- cillors and MPs, and signing the petition calling for the panel’s recommendation of a new Durham health corporation, are all ways the community can step up. “If they want to preserve this hospital they have to do it,” he said. “Everybody has to do it.” Dr. Stas said the hospital belongs to the community. “The community has to go out and sup- port the hospital or they’ll lose it. Simple as that,” he said. For more information visit www.friendso- faph.ca. The Ajax doctors’ thoughts DURHAM -- Lakeridge Health has no plans to take services away from the Ajax-Pickering hospital, says the corpo- ration’s interim president and CEO. “Durham is going to grow in a huge way in the next 20 to 30 eyers. We have no plan to take any service out of Ajax- Pickering,” said Tom McHugh. He’s responding to people in the Ajax- Pickering community who are con- cerned about rolling the local hospital into Lakeridge. Aside from the high cost, concerns have included the possibility of losing resources to the main Lakeridge campus in Oshawa, losing locally fundraised dol- lars and staff cuts. Some have shared fears of the hospital closing. “I can’t imagine that,” McHugh said. “We just see nothing but positive in the future. Ajax-Pickering is an area of high growth. All of Durham will have its turn for high growth. That means continued and probably more hospital services for the residents of Durham.” McHugh said Lakeridge wants people to understand there will be “absolutely no change” on the day Ajax-Pickering merges with Lakeridge. “It will be business as usual,” said McHugh. Staff members are worried about their jobs. The Ontario Public Services Employees Union held a press confer- ence earlier this month, fearing massive cuts to the front-line staff. “Bringing hospitals together is a com- plex activity that takes a lot of time and effort,” said McHugh. “While we don’t know the full impacts on employment yet, we know Durham is a high-growth area, and we need more services and more care, not less.” McHugh said people who work part- time jobs at both Rouge Valley and Lak- eridge will not be able to work at both campuses. He didn’t know the number of employees who will be affected by this off-hand but he said it’s not a large num- ber. “I’m not saying it’s not a concern to people in any way but it is a really spe- cific concern,” he said. McHugh added Lakeridge is on a strong financial footing. “Not every hospital can say that. That helps us drive quality of care without being concerned that we’re short of money. We like the idea of planning for all of Durham.” He also responded to concerns that just three individuals from the Ajax- Pickering hospital community are join- ing the Lakeridge board of directors, making up a small portion. “That is significant representation and we really look forward to having that experience and that voice at the table,” he said. “Hospital boards in Ontario are not strictly geographic.” He called that a thing of the past. “Our board, like all best practice boards for hospitals in Ontario, is a skills-based board. We are really looking for people who can help us with the task of being a board member for a big complex organi- zation.” He understands hospitals are impor- tant to local residents and that volun- teers work hard to raise funds. “If it’s fundraised in that community, it will stay in that community,” he said. The hospitals are organizing pub- lic engagement opportunities, such as a telephone town hall, to provide feed- back to the ministry about the integra- tions. “We are continuing to engage with Durham around this,” McHugh said.

Angela Bischoff of the Ontario Clean Air Alliance said, “It would be great to have a Pickering-based group to shut down Pickering (nuclear station). It’s not a city girl coming out here.” She made the comments at a meet- ing hosted by the alliance in Pickering on Tuesday, Oct. 25 and attended by about 50 people. The alliance wants the Pickering station closed in 2018, when its current operating licence expires. Ontario Power Generation is seeking to keep the plant operating until 2024. Jack Gibbons, chairman of the alliance, said, “The good news is we can close Pickering in 2018. We can keep the lights on, lower energy bills and create jobs.” Only about half of the electricity generat- ed at Pickering is used in Ontario, Gibbons noted, adding the rest is used in the United States. “At night and on weekends, the surplus is exported to the United States,” he said. “We pay the Americans to take our power away.” The electricity produced at Pickering can be “replaced by clean hydro electric power from Quebec.” Closing Pickering now and decommis- sioning it would “create 16,000 person years of employment between 2018 and 2030,” Gibbons said. He added Hydro Quebec has “a huge sur- plus. They’re exporting it to the U.S. Nucle- ar can’t compete with water. Water power is so much more cheaper and better,” Gib- bons said. Ontario Power Generation spokesman Neal Kelly said the Pickering station pro- vides 14 per cent of Ontario’s electricity each day. “It’s a viable, clean source of electricity for the province,” he said, adding the plant provides 4,500 direct and indirect jobs in the community. As for importing power from Quebec, Kelly said, “That’s not a viable option in the long run. Quebec doesn’t have a sur- plus to replace what Pickering provides annually.” In order to increase importation of elec- tricity from Quebec, Kelly said Quebec would first have to conduct an environ- mental assessment, make deals with indig- enous peoples, build both stations and transmission lines, while Ontario would have to build transmission lines that would reach Toronto, where the electricity would be needed. “That would cost billions of dollars,” he noted. John Coo of Green Cross Canada said of Pripyat, a city where Chernobyl nucle- ar station workers lived, “Welcome to the saddest place on Earth.” After the accident in 1986, it was aban- doned and is now a ghost town “and will remain forever so. “There’s no pretense of cleaning up the site. Containment is the best we can do,” Coo said. Green Cross International was started by former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev in 1993 with the aim of creating a sustainable and secure future. Coo said the same issues it’s dealing with at Chernobyl are now being dealt with in Japan at the disabled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear reactor. He went to Japan in 2014, but wasn’t allowed to tour the plant, but did tour sur- rounding communities. He said children have to play inside because it’s not safe outside. “One mother was afraid no one would marry her daughter because of the stigma of being from Fukushima,” Coo said. He noted about $700 billion has been spent at the Chernobyl site over the last 30 years and “it’s not done yet. There’s no end game.” Dr. Ian Fairlie, an expert on radioactivity, said, “Pickering is perhaps the most seri- ous case of a large population living near a nuclear station. That worries me.” He said there are 2.2 million people living within a 30-kilometre radius of Pickering. “Pickering should be closed and closed down immediately,” Dr. Fairlie said. Kelly countered that the plant has been operating safely for more than 40 years. “We know it’s safe to do so. Numerous studies have been conducted and they’ve all concluded that the plant is operated safely and the public is safe,” Kelly noted. “Keep in mind, it’s our home too. Our employees live in the community and raise their families in the community.” Janet McNeill of Durham Nuclear Aware- ness spoke on the need to update emer- gency planning at the provincial level. “There’s been no new emergency plan- ning review since Fukushima (in 2011). They are suppose to review it every four years, but the plans have been delayed and delayed. They’re kicking the cans down the road,” McNeill said. She noted DNA “expect to see a new plan soon. We’ve heard late fall or maybe mid- December.” Group wants Pickering nuclear station closed PRE-BUDGET CONSULTATIONTOWNHALL Jennifer O’Connell MP Pickering-Uxbridge Saturday,November 5th: 11:00am to 1:00pm Dr.Nelson F.Tomlinson Community Centre,4941 Brock Rd.,Claremont Hosted by Jennifer O’Connell,MP Pickering-Uxbridge ALL ARE WELCOME!

Member of Canadian Investor Protection Fund Durham man, 20, arrested on allegation of sexual contact with underage girl DURHAM -- Police in Peter- borough have arrested a Bowmanville man on allega- tions he was involved in sexual conduct with an underage girl. An investigation was begun early Friday, Oct. 28, after offi- cers received information about a man involved in inappropri- ate conduct with the girl, who is under 16, police said. The accused man and the alleged victim are known to each other, police said. Officers attended a residence in Peterborough early Friday and found the man and girl together, police said. Thomas Adrian Sabo, 20, of Bons Avenue in Bowmanville is charged with two counts each of sexual assault and sexual inter- ference. Durham copsbust Toronto man, woman accusedof forcing teen into sex trade DURHAM -- Charges includ- ing human trafficking of a person under 18 have been laid against two Toronto residents accused of forcing a girl into the sex trade. Durham’s Human Trafficking Unit launched an investigation in August after the girl, whose age wasn’t disclosed, reported she’d been forced into sex work in the GTA, police said. The girl was ferried around to hotels throughout the GTA and was only able to escape when a parent became aware of the situ- ation and called authorities, police said. Durham cops arrested a man and woman at a motel in Missis- sauga Wednesday, Oct. 27. Facing numerous human traf- ficking charges, including traffick- ing in a person under 18, as well as making and distributing child por- nography, are Alejandra Herrerra, 22, and 23-year-old Shahib Maleki, both of Dufresne Court in Toronto. Both were held for bail hearings.

She joined the organization Me to We. It was an experience she will never forget. Let’s let Emilie tell her story. “Last summer I went to Kenya with Me to We, a top youth leadership training organization. Me to We helps create sustainable communities around the world. I participated in a water walk where I carried a 50 pound jerrycan for 2km. The mamas do this journey around 5 times a day to provide water for their community. We visited a local school in the Maasai Mara region and built the foundation for two classrooms at a dilapidated school. The conditions they were learning in before Me to We came to help were horrible. It made me feel good that the help I put in on the build site would make a huge difference for those hundreds of boys and girls. Another activity I did, was bead with mamas. Beading is a source of income. They bead to make jewelry, plates, etc. The money they make helps their children go to school and buy food. Me to We has 5 pillars to make a community sustainable: education, food, water, health and alternate income. On my trip I got to experience these pillars first hand and see how they affect these communities greatly.” That’s what you call making a difference.

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 treat- ing yourself to an evening out, someplace where the food is great, the chef inspired, the staff attentive, and the décor and atmo- sphere 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 tast- ing 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 veg- etables, 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 delicious fusion foods inspi- red by the culinary traditions of France, Italy, Greece, Spain, Thailand, Japan, Mo rocco, and the list goes on. There are also many won- derful chefs who offer gluten free dishes, ve getarian meals, locavore cuisine, or other spe- cialties. There is no escaping it: there are so many delicious foods yet to discover!

BY GARTH PEARCE Sir Paul McCartney admits he’s hope- less with dates and for him the 1960s were mostly spent in a haze of play- ing, touring, writing, recording and liv- ing. But of one thing he is sure: he never thought that fame and success with The Beatles would last. “We were kids,” he says now. “We were scared. We didn’t think any of it would last long. Who did in those days? So it is incredible -- and I mean absolute- ly incredible -- to be talking about The Beatles after half a century.” The reason Sir Paul has appeared in front of the cameras once more to reflect about the past is a new documentary film The Beatles: Eight Days A Week -- The Touring Years. It is made by Holly- wood director Ron Howard, 62, an avid Beatles’ fan better known as an actor in the TV series Happy Days and for win- ning an Oscar as director of A Beautiful Mind. Those touring years were remarkably short, from 1962 to 1966. The last show on their final tour was August 29, 1966, in Candlestick Park, San Francisco. So Howard has trawled through old foot- age and interviews to deliver what is an intriguing historical documentary. He marries together old and new inter- views with both McCartney, 74, and Ringo Starr, 76. There are also interviews with John Lennon, murdered in New York aged just 40 in December 1980, and George Harrison, who died from cancer aged 58 in November 2001. Howard has uncovered unseen inter- views and footage that no one bothered with to show both the intense excite- ment and the sheer carelessness of how tours were put together in four frantic years. Between 1962 and 1966 The Beatles played 250 shows and wrote 150 original songs. Their final playing appearance came in January 1969 on the roof of their company, Apple, in Savile Row, London. If the past is indeed another country then that’s how the old days seem, par- ticularly the footage in black and white. The Second World War had been over for just 17 years when The Beatles enjoyed their first hit, Love Me Do, in October, 1962, and some of those scenes -- boys with short haircuts wearing suits and ties, girls looking remark ably gauche -- could almost be from the 1940s. Sir Paul, who once wrote “When I’m 64”, feels as much a victim of swiftly passing time as any of his generation. “Everything seemed to work so slowly in those days,” he told me. “When you think about The Beatles, we had a guy called Pete Shotton on washboard when I joined, there was another guy called Ivan [Vaughan] on bass, Col [Colin Hanton] on drums and another fellow on banjo. “So from that to the eventual lineup of John, George, Ringo and myself took about 10 years of trying and working for 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 • No v e m b e r 2 , 2 0 1 6 23 AP Mon. - Thurs. 9a - 8p, Fri. 9a - 7p, Sat. 10a - 5p, Sun. 10a - 3p. *Call or visit store for details. 780 Kingston Rd.

A lot of people have trouble catching what people say, especially in group situations,despite havinggood hearing. Whatalotofpeopledon’tknowisthat this may be caused by damage to the so-called motor or amplifier f unction ofspecialcells in the ear.A newtypeof hearing aid can help balance thisout. A great many people have difficulty hearing others clearly on a daily basis. Bad acoustics,unclear pronunciation, background noise and music often make it challenging to catch what people say.This results in them having to repeatedly ask questions,straining to hear and perhaps increasingly avoiding discussions in large groups. Asmentionedearlier,thismaybecaused by malfunctions in special cells in the ear. According to a theory proposed by hearing researchers,“motor cells” are a type of hair cell responsible for amplifying quiet sounds.They vibrate up to 20,000 times per second. If these hair cells do not work properly then quiet sounds are no longer naturally amplified in the ear and loud sounds no longer dampened. This leadstomore difficulty in hearing what is said in a lot of situations.If the hair cells have been damaged by noise orblood circulationproblems,hearing aids that amplify quiet speech and dampen loud ambient noise can be a good solution for most people. Hair cells in the ear move very rapidlyandcanactasanamplifieror dampener.Ifthesecellsaredamaged, they can no longer properly amplify speechanddampenloudnoises.

Research for the film’s factual back- ground was based on the excellent 1968 book by Hunter Davies, called simply The Beatles, which remains the only ever authorized biography of the group, among the hundreds published. Throughout the intense touring years the band was managed by the late Brian Epstein, who committed suicide aged 32 on August 27, 1967, almost a year to the day after the final touring show. Since albums were also being produced, many new songs had to be written, most on bits of paper or envelopes. There was also an intense songwriting rivalry between McCartney and Lennon. The volatile nature of their friendship and partnership produced such a potent mixture. “We were always in competition,” Sir Paul told Davies in an update of his book. “I wrote Penny Lane so he wrote Straw- berry Fields. That is how it was. John was all action. He was the loudest in any crowd. He was the cock who crowed the loudest. Me and George used to call him the cockerel in the studio. For 10 years together he took my songs apart. He was paranoiac about my songs. We had great screaming sessions about them. “In the beginning he was a sort of fair- ground hero. He was the big lad riding the dodgems and we thought he was great. We were younger, me and George, and that mattered.” Hero worship “It was teenage hero worship. My first reaction was very simple - that he was great, that he was a great bloke and a great singer. That’s what I used to say. “I idolised John. He was the big guy in the chip shop. I was the little guy. As I matured and grew up I started sharing things with him. I wrote songs as he did and sometimes they were as good as his. We grew into equals. “But it made him feel insecure. He always was, really… We were once having a right slagging session and I remember how he took off his granny glasses. I can still see him. He put them down and said, ‘It’s only me, Paul.’ Then he put them back on again and we con- tinued slagging. That phrase keeps on coming back to me all the time, ‘It’s only me.’ No one else knows the truth about us, such as it is. That’s the trouble.” Sir Paul points out that in the wake of an earthquake there can be 100 different versions of what happened from 100 dif- ferent people. “Until I was about 30 I thought that the world was an exact place,” he says. “Now I know that life just splutters along. John knew that all the time. He was the great debunker.” Through those touring years the two of them rolled out the hits. They included the band’s first No.1, Please Please Me, in January 1963. Even as they finished the final tour date The Beatles released Yellow Sub- marine with poetic Eleanor Rigby on the flipside. They also delivered seven albums in that time, packed with such classics as Eight Days A Week, Michelle and the all- time favourite for other recording artists, Yesterday. They carried on writing and record- ing after the touring days were over. The band’s split was announced in April, 1970. Sir Paul is always blunt about what happened all those years ago. “Like any group, there were times when we could not play very well,” he says. “Everyone has to start somewhere and we were no different.” For director Howard it has been a labour of love. “I was a huge fan of The Beatles at the time and reckon to be more so now after all these years,” he says. “We knew they were great but per- haps didn’t realise how great they were. They’ve produced classic songs and words of our generation and many gen- erations to come. They are unbeatable.” – The Interview People McCartney says his development as a songwriter made John Lennon feel ‘insecure’ MCCARTNEY from page 23 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 • No v e m b e r 2 , 2 0 1 6 25 AP JOIN OURTEAM INQUIRE TODAY ABOUT JOINING OURTEAM (905) 619 0323 ajax@cruiseshipcenters.com www.joinecsc.com/Ajax TICO#:50007754 Ever dreamed of an exciting career as a travel consultant?

As the weather changes, life can become more stressful for those who are caring for an aging parent. The risk of falls increases and if your parent has dementia with a ten- dency to wander, you may be afraid that he/she may leave the house and get lost without proper clothing. Many people are unaware that many long-term care facilities host day programs that your parent may attend to keep them active, supervised and safe. In addition, many retirement residences have short- stay placements available. If you are caring for a parent who cannot be left alone and want to go away for a vacation to escape the cold or just to have a rest, you may want to reach out to your local retirement residence to inquire about availability and what the costs would be. Often, you will be charged a daily rate for short stay that would include everything that a permanent lease agree- ment would include, such as meals, activi- ties, housekeeping, assistance with shower- ing and medication administration if need- ed. You may be able to extend the short stay agreement for up to three months, allowing your parent to be in a safe environment for the worst of the winter season. To find a placement for your parent for short stay, the process is pretty much the same as it would be for a permanent place- ment. I would suggest that you contact the closest residences to your home or your favourite locations and request a tour. Ask if you can stay for a meal. Speak with some of the residents to get their view on what’s good about the home and what could be improved. Make sure you are comparing apples to apples. The home will likely want to do an assessment with their nurse to ensure they can manage the care for your parent during their stay. They will also like- ly ask you for a TB test or chest X-ray along with a completed physical history form from your parent’s doctor. If your parent receives help from homec- are workers through the CCAC, that service can be transferred to the retirement resi- dence where your parent is staying while you are away. It can then be transferred back to their home when you return. I have met many people who are trying their best to care for their aging parents while still raising children of their own and managing a full-time job. If you are able, I suggest you take advantage of the short stay.

Barb Low-Bradley LOVE, Beatrice Marie (nee Horst) ~ (1930 - 2016) With a warm heart, loving spirit and endless grace, cherished wife of John, married for 57 years, and much loved mother of David (Jim Harcott) and Elizabeth (Tom Benson), and very proud grandmother of Alexa and Kilian Benson, passed away on October 27, 2016. Although cancer had invaded her body, beginning more than 30 years ago, she embodied grace and strength and was a generous giver of love and life. In her final days she was with her family at home where she taught piano for many years. Her life was filled with music, serving as a church organist and choir director for more than 65 years beginning at the young age of 16 at St. Peter's (Neustadt), and continuing at St. Matthew's (Hanover), Faith (Oshawa) and Christ the King (Whitby) Lutheran churches. Viewing will take place at ACCETTONE'S FUNERAL HOME, 384 Finley Ave, Ajax on Thursday, November 3 from 2-4PM and 7-9PM. The Funeral Service will take place in the same church in which she was baptized, confirmed and married; St. Peter's Lutheran Church, (461 Jacob Street, Neustadt) at 1PM on Saturday, Nov 5.
